worst violence for many months. It happened when security forces moved | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
against supporters of the deposed Islamist President. | :00:16. | :00:22. | |
Officials say nearly 150 are dead and more than a thousand wounded. | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
The opposition Muslim Brotherhood accuses the authorities of a | :00:24. | :00:29. | |
massacre. The raid's been going on for about two hours now. The police | :00:29. | :00:37. | |
control this road. I'd say we're about a hundred metre from the Rabaa | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
mosque encampment. We have been hearing live fire. There has been | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
international condemnation, but will there be action? | :00:45. | :00:50. | |
Also, unemployment falls. It's now 2.5 million, but the young are still | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
struggling to find jobs. The fight against cancer - | :00:53. | :00:57. | |

:01:30. | :01:43. | ||
Good evening, and welcome to the BBC News at 6.00pm. A month-long state | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
of emergency has been declared in Egypt after the most violent day for | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
many months. It comes after security forces raided two protest camps set | :01:49. | :01:55. | |
up by supporters of the deposed Muslim Brotherhood President. The | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
authorities themselves say nearly 150 people have been killed and more | :01:58. | :02:03. | |
than a thousand wounded. The opposition say it's a massacre. | :02:03. | :02:06. | |
Among those killed was a British cameraman working for Sky News. | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
Tonight, the Vice President has resigned. In a moment, we'll be | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
looking at the impact of this violence on Egypt and the region, | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
but first, James Reynolds joins us live from Cairo. James, what's the | :02:17. | :02:26. | |
latest? George, in the last few minutes, a nighttime curfew has been | :02:26. | :02:32. | |
imposed on Cairo. Egyptian security forces are guarding bridges, foreign | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
embassies - this city is largely, and strangely - quiet. The | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
Government's raids began shortly after dawn. | :02:42. | :02:52. | |
:02:52. | :02:53. | ||
Two hours after first light, without warning, the state moved in. We | :02:53. | :03:01. | |
filmed a military bulldozer knocking down the barricades around the Rabaa | :03:01. | :03:10. | |
Mosque, the capital of the pro-Morsi movement. Protesters fought back. | :03:10. | :03:18. | |
This is what a last stand looks like. On this corner, demonstrators | :03:18. | :03:28. | |
:03:28. | :03:33. | ||
burnt tyres and took on the police. towards demonstrators as they ran | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
away. The raid's been going on for about two hours now. The police | :03:38. | :03:44. | |
control this road. I'd say we're about a hundred metres from the | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
Rabaa Mosque encampment. We have been hearing live fire and feeling | :03:47. | :03:53. | |
the sting of tear gas as well. From a balcony, some even cheered the | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
offensive. In this neighbourhood, the security forces have plenty of | :03:58. | :04:06. | |
support. The frontline, the Rabaa Mosque, is just a few blocks away. | :04:06. | :04:14. | |
Here, an injured officer retreats from the fight. This is the area, | :04:14. | :04:20. | |
the security forces are trying to clear. The Rabaa Mosque encampment | :04:20. | :04:25. | |
has become a battleground. TRANSLATION: A man was standing next | :04:25. | :04:32. | |
to me. In a second, he was hit in the chest, and he died. What have we | :04:32. | :04:39. | |
But Government TV has broadcast these infrared pictures. They're | :04:39. | :04:44. | |
said to show Morsi supporters firing on the police from the encampment. | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
But this is what the pro-Morsi movement wants the world to see. | :04:49. | :04:55. | |
Supporters took these pictures inside a field hospital. Many are | :04:55. | :05:02. | |
too graphic to show. A BBC Arabic correspondent counted 50 bodies in | :05:03. | :05:12. | |
:05:13. | :05:13. | ||
one morgue. Protesters call the raid TRANSLATION: This massacre is a war | :05:13. | :05:19. | |
of annihilation. The General, Assisi, should realise the coup has | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
failed and he'll be tried before a criminal court. He is trying to | :05:23. | :05:32. | |
attract the Egyptian army and the Mick Dean, a British cameraman with | :05:32. | :05:37. | |
Sky News, was among those killed in the assault. He was 61 years old and | :05:37. | :05:43. | |
married with two sons. The security forces, here dispersing a second | :05:43. | :05:47. | |
encampment on the other side of Cairo, have been commended by the | :05:47. | :05:53. | |
Government for their restraint, a piece of praise the opposition will | :05:53. | :06:00. | |
struggle to comprehend. What must the deposed and imprisoned | :06:00. | :06:05. | |
President, Mohamed Morsi, make of what's just happened? His supporters | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
once made up half the country. They're now out of power, and | :06:09. | :06:19. | |
:06:19. | :06:24. | ||
The United Nations, the US and Britain have all condemned the use | :06:24. | :06:26. | |
of force against protesters. The European Union has called the | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
reports of deaths and injuries "extremely worrying". Our diplomatic | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
correspondent James Robbins looks at where this latest bout of violence | :06:32. | :06:37. | |
leaves the Arab world's most populous country. | :06:37. | :06:41. | |
What's happening in Egypt is a violent and bloody illustration of | :06:41. | :06:47. | |
the depth of division and polarisation in the country. On one | :06:47. | :06:51. | |
side, armed forces determined to enforce their vision of democracy. | :06:51. | :06:56. | |
On the other, resolute supporters of a more Islam Egypt than the military | :06:56. | :07:00. | |
is willing to allow. The main frontlines in this battle, but not | :07:00. | :07:10. | |
the only areas of conflict, have been the two test camps in Cairo, | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
around this square and Rabaa al-Adwiya, where President Morsi and | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
the Muslim Brotherhood have camped behind barricades since they were | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
pushed from power. After the failure of negotiations, early this morning | :07:22. | :07:26. | |
forces moved in, bulldozing barricades and moving protesters | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
out. Within hours they cleared the smaller camp, but around the mosque, | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
there is far greater blood shed, and it's the level of violence which | :07:34. | :07:38. | |
many governments have been quick to condemn. The United States strongly | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
condemns the use of violence against protesters in Egypt. We extend our | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
condolences to the families of those who have been killed and to the | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
injured. We have repeatedly called on the Egyptian military and | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
security forces to show restraint. So who are the protesters? And what | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
do they want? They're members of the Muslim Brotherhood who say their | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
democratic election victory was stolen from them in last month's | :08:01. | :08:06. | |
coup, but the Brotherhood's vision, entrenching Islam in Government and | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
society, made them powerful enemies, particularly in the military, so the | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
Egyptian army, once seen as friends of all the country's people, are now | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
seen to be taking sides. Last month they brought down President Morsi, | :08:18. | :08:22. | |
and today, the Generals used their overwhelming military superiority to | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
push his supporters in the Brotherhood off the streets. So does | :08:25. | :08:30. | |
the scale of today's mounting death toll risk tipping Egypt towards | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
something far worse, civil war? Egypt's Government denies using | :08:34. | :08:39. | |
excessive force. The Government salutes the efforts | :08:39. | :08:44. | |
of the Security Services for imposing order in clearing the | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
gatherings at the square and Rabaa al-Adwiya. These forces use the | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
utmost restraint and the highest degree of professionalism in the | :08:50. | :08:57. | |
operation to clear the sit-in. But as violence spreads, this is | :08:57. | :09:03. | |
Alexandria, Egypt's vice president, Mohammed El Baradei, has resigned, a | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
serious blow to the interim Government. What happens in Egypt | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
matters far beyond the country's borders - months, possibly years, of | :09:10. | :09:20. | |
:09:20. | :09:22. | ||
dangerous instability in Egypt and work has fallen again. Between April | :09:22. | :09:30. | |
and June this year, the figure dropped by 4,000. So the total | :09:30. | :09:33. | |
number of people looking for work is just over 2.5 million. That means | :09:33. | :09:37. | |
the unemployment rate is almost 8%. That's well above the 7% target set | :09:37. | :09:39. | |
by the Bank of England. Our chief economics correspondent Hugh Pym | :09:39. | :09:45. | |
reports. It looks like an office with workers in any part of the | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
economy, but these are job seekers in what's billed as the Jobcentre of | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
the future. It's designed to help claim amounts search for work online | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
after trials which are said to have raised the success rate for job | :09:56. | :10:00. | |
hunters. The plan is to start converting other centres around the | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
country it's a far cry from this, the traditional Jobcentre image, | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
with cards advertising whatever vacancies might be available. | :10:09. | :10:14. | |
couple of apprenticeships. Here, Lynn is getting advice for her | :10:14. | :10:18. | |
online job search. She told me how the whole experience of signing on | :10:18. | :10:22. | |
had changed. I come out of the Jobcentre before, and I would feel | :10:22. | :10:26. | |
depressed. I would spend the next two days not even bothering for work | :10:26. | :10:32. | |
because I would think, no, that job - whereas here I actually feel | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
inspired, and I feel like people are helping me. Total employment in the | :10:36. | :10:40. | |
economy is rising with companies like this Dorset manufacturer | :10:40. | :10:45. | |
creating jobs. It's taken on five apprentices. Christopher is one of | :10:45. | :10:50. | |
them. He's relieved to have gotten the job with 70 applicants trying | :10:50. | :10:55. | |
out. Being an apprentice is great. You can get new skills, meet new | :10:55. | :11:00. | |
people. My friends are still unemployed. It's tremely hard to get | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
work. The total jobless level has fallen, though there was a slight | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
increase in Wales. The number of 16-24-year-olds out of work in | :11:08. | :11:14. | |
England and Wales has gone up, so has long-term unemployment. That | :11:14. | :11:18. | |
suggests although the economy may be recovering and the labour market may | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
be in a better state than it was a year or two ago, there are still | :11:21. | :11:25. | |
lots of people who are suffering in terms of finding jobs. The Bank of | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
England says it won't raise interest rates at least until unemployment | :11:28. | :11:33. | |
falls to 7% of the workforce. The latest figures show it's remained at | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
7.8%. Some economists believe it could take awhile to fall | :11:37. | :11:42. | |
significantly. Those in work may feel relieved they have jobs, but | :11:42. | :11:48. | |
they still face financial pressures. Today we learned more about how | :11:48. | :11:51. | |
cost-living increases are putting the squeeze on people's spending | :11:51. | :11:56. | |
power. Average pay rises picked up a bit, but they're still lagging well | :11:56. | :12:01. | |
behind the rate of inflation. The number claiming job jobseeker's | :12:01. | :12:08. | |
allowance may have fallen but the number of people in jobs has a long | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
way to go before we can say it has recovered. | :12:12. | :12:15. | |
The Labour Leader has laughed off being pelted with eggs during a | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
visit to a market in south London. Ed Miliband carried on talking to | :12:19. | :12:21. | |
stallholders and shoppers as the egg thrower was stopped by security | :12:21. | :12:24. | |
staff. The Labour leader removed his jacket and told people "These things | :12:25. | :12:27. | |
happen". Let's talk to our political correspondent Ben Wright who joins | :12:27. | :12:35. | |
us from Westminster. He obviously made light of this, but | :12:35. | :12:42. | |
it doesn't help, does it? He's a man with many challenges on his plate. | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
He's not the first politician to get hit by an egg and won't be the last | :12:46. | :12:50. | |
but unfortunate on a day where clearly he was trying to get on the | :12:50. | :12:55. | |
front foot. He was on a walk-about of a South London street market, | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
pressing the flesh and making the case living standards are squeezed. | :12:59. | :13:06. | |
It was the first sighting of him since he got back from holiday. One | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
Labour MP complained the Shadow Cabinet had been effectively silent | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
over the summer. Even a member of the Shadow Cabinet complained it | :13:12. | :13:16. | |
didn't have any policies and needs some in place by the spring if it's | :13:16. | :13:21. | |
going to grab the attention of voters. Ed Miliband responded to | :13:21. | :13:24. | |
some of that today saying it was taking the Government on and did | :13:24. | :13:30. | |
have policies, but while the egg was confidently brushed off, I think | :13:30. | :13:34. | |
persuading critics in his party they're on the right track could be | :13:34. | :13:44. | |
:13:44. | :13:46. | ||
harder to do. Thank you very much. | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
A generous bequest from a former nurse has turned into something of a | :13:49. | :13:51. | |
political headache for the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats. | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
The two parties both shared a donation of �500,000 left by Joan | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
Edwards, in the words of her will, "to the Government of the time". But | :13:58. | :14:01. | |
after protests from Labour and some Tory MPs, both parties have | :14:01. | :14:03. | |
announced they'll pass the cash on to the Treasury. Our political | :14:03. | :14:04. | |
correspondent Gary O'Donoghue reports. | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
When Joan Edwards died, no-one had any idea how much she was worth or | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
who she planned to leave it to. According to her neighbour, she | :14:10. | :14:13. | |
lived a simple life in this semiin Bristol, which had been the family | :14:13. | :14:20. | |
home for 82 years. If you knew Joan and you saw her, you wouldn't think | :14:20. | :14:25. | |
she had this. I think if she had wanted to make a donation to a | :14:25. | :14:28. | |
political party, she would have done that and said that is what she | :14:28. | :14:33. | |
wanted to do. But despite her best intentions, this modest woman has | :14:33. | :14:43. | |
:14:43. | :14:49. | ||
caused embarrassment at the very top her death, they'd sought | :14:49. | :14:59. | |
:14:59. | :15:07. | ||
and Lib Dems pocketed half a million between them. The Tories getting the | :15:07. | :15:12. | |
lion's share. When the details emerged, there was an outcry, with | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
MPs across the spectrum saying the money should have gone to the nation | :15:15. | :15:19. | |
and not into party political coffers. Within hours, the | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
Conservatives and the Lib Dems had bowed to the pressure, and the money | :15:23. | :15:27. | |
is now here in the Treasury - reduces the deficit by something | :15:28. | :15:33. | |
short of 1,000 of is 1%. Having been able to look at the wording of the | :15:33. | :15:36. | |
will and consider the matter, I think this is the right decision, | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
and I am pleased we're paying the money to the Treasury. We'll never | :15:41. | :15:44. | |
know whether Joan Edwards will be happy with the outcome, but she'll | :15:44. | :15:48. | |
certainly go down as one of those rare people who give their money to | :15:48. | :15:58. | |
:15:58. | :15:59. | ||
politicians. . A state of emergency in Egypt following bloody clashes | :15:59. | :16:01. | |
between security forces and protesters demanding the | :16:01. | :16:03. | |
reinstatement of the deposed president. Still to come: The latest | :16:03. | :16:05. | |
from Peru - new claims that these two women were forced to smuggle | :16:05. | :16:15. | |
:16:15. | :16:17. | ||
cocaine. And on Sportsday - Olympic champion Greg Rutherford falls short | :16:17. | :16:22. | |
in the World Championship long jump and then false file of his rival, | :16:22. | :16:32. | |

Chris Tomlinson, over his selection. Dash-macro file. -- file. Scientists | :16:36. | :16:38. | |
are reporting a milestone for cancer research. In the largest ever | :16:38. | :16:41. | |
analysis of cancer genomes, they have identified 21 of the genetic | :16:41. | :16:43. | |
mutations that can turn healthy tissue into tumours. There are more | :16:43. | :16:50. | |
than 200 types of cancer. And, on average, 890 people are diagnosed | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
with cancer every day in the UK. It is hoped that by understanding the | :16:53. | :16:55. | |
genetic signatures left behind by cancers, better treatments can be | :16:55. | :17:05. | |
:17:05. | :17:10. | ||
developed, as David Shukman reports. The site of cancer close up. This | :17:10. | :17:15. | |
picture shows cancer cells in the kidneys. This one in the ovaries. | :17:15. | :17:19. | |
Investigating how cancer starts is crucial to preventing it orbiting | :17:19. | :17:24. | |
it. And the most important clue might be genetic. The steady rhythm | :17:24. | :17:30. | |
of machines analysing DNA at an institute near Cambridge, part of an | :17:30. | :17:35. | |
international effort to understand how what happens to DNA affects | :17:35. | :17:41. | |
chances of suffering from cancer. Each cell has a strand of DNA, our | :17:41. | :17:47. | |
genetic code, made up of aces put together in a very specific order | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
but sometimes these can be damaged and these changes can lead to | :17:51. | :17:56. | |
cancer. We know that smoking can do that and in lung cancer, genetic | :17:56. | :18:02. | |
matching is altered in a project can away. It is the signature of the | :18:02. | :18:07. | |
mutation caused by tobacco. A different pattern of genetic change | :18:07. | :18:14. | |
is left behind by ultraviolet light that can lead to skin cancer and | :18:14. | :18:17. | |
scientists have found other signatures of this kind which can | :18:17. | :18:20. | |
cause different types of cancer for reasons that are not known but can | :18:20. | :18:28. | |
be investigated. This is the largest study of its kind and what we are | :18:28. | :18:33. | |
very excited about is through these findings we have opened the door and | :18:33. | :18:39. | |
encountered many different paths that can lead to cancer formation. | :18:39. | :18:44. | |
An animation of the moment a cancer cell divides. This research will not | :18:45. | :18:51. | |
readily lead to treatments but a surgeon specialising in cancer was | :18:51. | :18:55. | |
involved in the study and says that it creates options for the future, | :18:55. | :19:01. | |
especially with early warning. indications for patients is that we | :19:01. | :19:05. | |
can think about not just treatment but also early detection and | :19:05. | :19:11. | |
prevention. So if we can start to understand what is causing those | :19:11. | :19:18. | |
cancers, which processes, we can start to think about intervening. | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
This study has achieved something unimaginable a few years ago - | :19:22. | :19:26. | |
analysing 5 million genetic changes in cancer cells. The fight against | :19:26. | :19:30. | |
cancer is slow and frustrating but understanding how it starts should, | :19:30. | :19:37. | |
in the long run, make a real difference. The Eurozone has emerged | :19:37. | :19:39. | |
from recession after a record 18 months of contraction. Total | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
economic output grew by 0.3% in the second quarter of 2013, slightly | :19:42. | :19:44. | |
ahead of forecasts. The figure masks the mixed economic picture across | :19:44. | :19:54. | |
:19:54. | :19:54. | ||
the zone, though. Whilst Germany, France and Portugal have seen their | :19:54. | :19:56. | |
economies expand, Spain, Italy and the Netherlands saw their economic | :19:56. | :20:06. | |
:20:06. | :20:08. | ||
output fall. Matthew Price reports from Aachen in Germany. This is a | :20:08. | :20:15. | |
recovery very much made in Germany. Made in the high-tech laboratories | :20:15. | :20:19. | |
of this company, for instance, where they design Internet hardware. This | :20:19. | :20:23. | |
man has watched his business boom by a quarter in the last year. This | :20:23. | :20:29. | |
year again, we are running double-digit growth rates so no | :20:29. | :20:32. | |
recession or any feeling of that whatsoever. German consumers are | :20:32. | :20:39. | |
spending, helping lead the Eurozone out of recession. Anna factoring is | :20:39. | :20:45. | |
strong, the result of government policies one decade ago that created | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
a more flexible economy. Without German growth, the Eurozone would | :20:49. | :20:53. | |
still be in decline but one country does not make a recovery. Three | :20:53. | :20:58. | |
miles away is the Dutch border and there, figures show they are still | :20:58. | :21:03. | |
in recession. Nobody believes that today marks the end of Europe's | :21:03. | :21:07. | |
economic problems. Still, in France, the Eurozone's second-largest | :21:07. | :21:14. | |
economy, there was an unexpected jump in growth. Created, in part, by | :21:14. | :21:18. | |
higher government and household spending. The job centres are still | :21:18. | :21:24. | |
dealing with record unemployment but today's figures are welcome. People | :21:24. | :21:31. | |
write now want to invest and the crisis is not over. What in Brussels | :21:31. | :21:35. | |
they caution that the big problem - massive Eurozone government debt, | :21:35. | :21:41. | |
remains. It is good news for the Eurozone that there is growth but we | :21:41. | :21:44. | |
should not forget that there is still a crisis so this is no time | :21:44. | :21:49. | |
for complacency. Good growth is good. It will help tackle the crisis | :21:49. | :21:55. | |
but there still is a crisis. And on the streets of Spain, where the | :21:55. | :22:01. | |
unemployed cell garlic to survive, but crisis is clear to see. They say | :22:01. | :22:05. | |
that things in Europe are improving. That is what they say on television. | :22:05. | :22:10. | |
But here in Spain, I don't see anything getting better. But that is | :22:10. | :22:15. | |
how economic recovery works. He won't feel it yet, but Spain 's | :22:15. | :22:19. | |
recession appears to be petering out, and some parts of the | :22:19. | :22:23. | |
cash-starved site. This might be a slow stumble in the Eurozone | :22:23. | :22:30. | |
recovery, but any recovery of this large trading block is better news | :22:30. | :22:37. | |
for Britain and the rest of the world. Two women held in Peru over | :22:37. | :22:39. | |
suspected drug trafficking say they were forced to carry the cocaine by | :22:39. | :22:41. | |
a Colombian gang. Michaella McCollum and Melissa Reid were stopped trying | :22:41. | :22:44. | |
to board a flight to Spain last week. They told a visiting | :22:44. | :22:46. | |
Archbishop that they were threatened at gunpoint. Will Grant reports from | :22:46. | :22:56. | |
:22:56. | :23:03. | ||
Lima. In the hours following their arrest, making them and must read | :23:03. | :23:07. | |
appeared tired but in good spirits, considering the ordeal ahead. After | :23:07. | :23:11. | |
being picked up in the airport in Lima, carrying cocaine with an | :23:11. | :23:15. | |
estimated street value of �1.5 million, they were taken here to a | :23:15. | :23:23. | |
holding cell and the international press gathered outside. This is the | :23:23. | :23:26. | |
headquarters of the anti-drug police and this is where the women have | :23:26. | :23:30. | |
been held since their arrest over one week ago. The presently end up | :23:30. | :23:35. | |
in next is likely to be significantly harsher. It will be | :23:35. | :23:39. | |
sure to head home the full gravity of the situation they are in. The | :23:39. | :23:43. | |
pair have, from the start, maintained their innocence, saying | :23:44. | :23:46. | |
in an age of you that they were forced at gunpoint to smuggle those | :23:46. | :23:51. | |
drugs. An armed group threatened them and their families, they said, | :23:52. | :23:55. | |
and they had no choice but to comply. They have received a visit | :23:55. | :24:00. | |
from a Catholic Archbishop, Sean Walsh, who urged them to stick to | :24:00. | :24:04. | |
their story, if it was true. He said, if not, they should tell the | :24:04. | :24:09. | |
authorities as early as possible to avoid a tougher sentence. The women | :24:09. | :24:12. | |
say they were forcibly recruited by drug gangs in a beta, where they | :24:12. | :24:17. | |
were working. What they claim never to have met before the situation in | :24:17. | :24:22. | |
Peru began. They face the daunting prospect of a Peruvian jail. They | :24:22. | :24:28. | |
face a very lengthy period of attention lasting up to three years | :24:28. | :24:33. | |
and in very poor prison conditions. They are among some of the most | :24:33. | :24:36. | |
overcrowded in Latin America and given the country 's tangled legal | :24:36. | :24:40. | |
system, the women know that it might be years before they are able to | :24:40. | :24:50. | |
:24:50. | :24:57. | ||
leave. He's pretty loud and extremely good looking - that was | :24:57. | :24:59. | |
how the Duke of Cambridge has described his three-week-old son, | :24:59. | :25:01. | |
Prince George. Speaking during a visit to the Anglesey Agricultural | :25:01. | :25:03. | |
Show, Prince William also revealed that he will be leaving Wales and | :25:03. | :25:09. | |
moving elsewhere when his RAF posting comes to an end next month. | :25:09. | :25:13. | |
It is remote and rural and that has been a very big part of the | :25:13. | :25:16. | |
attraction. For three years, Anglesey has been a haven for | :25:16. | :25:20. | |
William, a community which welcomed him and then left him and his wife | :25:20. | :25:26. | |
alone. But his life is changing. He and Catherine have a baby, George, | :25:26. | :25:30. | |
born three weeks ago, and his tour of duty as a search and rescue pilot | :25:30. | :25:36. | |
at RAF Valley ends next month. And so this, today, was both farewell | :25:36. | :25:41. | |
and thank you. William met people from Anglesey who have become | :25:41. | :25:45. | |
friends and one, Sharon West, whose life he had saved in his rescue | :25:45. | :25:49. | |
helicopter. I just want to say thank you for rescuing me. Was it you? | :25:49. | :25:59. | |
:25:59. | :26:00. | ||
Yes. Are you all right? I am OK. Attitude was what William wanted to | :26:00. | :26:10. | |
:26:10. | :26:10. | ||
express. He started with a few words in Welsh... And then a reference to | :26:10. | :26:15. | |
Katherine and their son. She and George would have loved to be here. | :26:15. | :26:20. | |
He is pretty loud and, of course, extremely good-looking! Finally, his | :26:20. | :26:25. | |
thanks to the people of Anglesey. From the bottom of my heart, thank | :26:25. | :26:31. | |
you for making my wife and myself so well, only arrived here. His words | :26:31. | :26:36. | |
lifted O'Dowd that leaving Anglesey will be a wrench. Whatever he | :26:36. | :26:39. | |
decides to do next, it will be very difficult to the relatively relaxed | :26:39. | :26:43. | |
and unobtrusive life they have been able to lead. Anglesey will miss | :26:43. | :26:49. | |
them. And it is beyond doubt that they will miss the tranquillity and | :26:49. | :26:59. | |
:26:59. | :27:06. | ||
relative normality of Anglesey. Time have to find alternative plans. Over | :27:06. | :27:09. | |
the next 24 hours, most of the rain will be across northern areas and | :27:10. | :27:14. | |
the cloud has been cascading, winning some patchy rain here, there | :27:14. | :27:18. | |
and everywhere. But the main focus will be across Northern Ireland and | :27:18. | :27:21. | |
overnight it will turn very wet across much of Scotland. A proper | :27:21. | :27:27. | |
wet night and bursts of heavy rain across north-western parts. Mostly | :27:27. | :27:33. | |
dry further side. A very humid night with best on high ground. | :27:33. | :27:39. | |
Temperature is not falling below 18 degrees in some places. It will be a | :27:39. | :27:44. | |
wet start across Scotland and the rain eases off with some brightness | :27:45. | :27:49. | |
and showers breaking out and even that North, one or two showers and | :27:49. | :27:51. | |
up through the Midlands but in any sunshine, temperatures will shoot | :27:51. | :27:57. | |
up. Body three could be conservative, it could possibly get | :27:57. | :28:03. | |
to the high 20s. Then it turns wet again. A double whammy for Northern | :28:03. | :28:07. | |
Ireland and southern Scotland and North West England. Some very heavy | :28:07. | :28:11. | |
bursts of rain and this chunk of wet weather slides south, this is | :28:11. | :28:16. | |
tomorrow night and into the early hours of Friday. It might take much | :28:16. | :28:20. | |
of Friday before it arrives across the far South East of England so | :28:20. | :28:24. | |
perhaps someone sunshine for a time here and some wet weather eventually | :28:24. | :28:27. | |
will arrive. Behind that, a different feel to things with | :28:27. | :28:33. | |
sunshine, not as humid and the low 20s. Any early brightness won't last | :28:33. | :28:40. | |
long on Saturday, turning increasingly cloudy, wet and windy. | :28:40. | :28:43. | |
Holiday-makers be aware. Heavy rain across northern areas in particular. | :28:43. | :28:47. | |
But that will not last and although we shall see some wind and rain, | :28:47. | :28:57. | |
:28:57. | :28:59. | ||
sunshine will eventually arrive, emergency in Egypt following bloody | :28:59. | :29:03. |
