The three main political parties reach a deal on press regulation, | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
but will the newspapers agree? It follows months of wrangling | :00:10. | :00:15. | |
between politicians and the press. So far the only paper to have | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
responded, the Independent, says the papers will not back the new system. | :00:18. | :00:23. | |

News At Six. After almost a year of wrangling | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
between politicians and the papers, the three main political parties | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
have agreed what they hope will be the definitive new system of press | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
regulation. It follows the Leveson Report last November into press | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
standards and the use of phone hacking. The big question now is | :01:40. | :01:46. | |
will the newspapers sign up to it? So far, only the Independent has | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
responded, saying that's unlikely. David Sillito reports. | :01:49. | :02:06. | |
Today, there were concessions. It is going to be less costly for the | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
papers, but the fact that Parliament holds the lock on stopping the | :02:09. | :02:15. | |
system being changed is still there. We need to make sure this charter is | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
put beyond politicians of any government, now or in future. By | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
having this no change lock in place, we achieve that. Without that, it | :02:23. | :02:32. | |
would be liable to be tinkered with. Concessions have been made to the | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
press. Local newspapers will be able to opt out of the arbitration | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
system. The public will have to pay a fee. We just hope the politicians | :02:40. | :02:46. | |
have judged it right, and that will make the press think again about | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
their sulky attitude, and sign up to this system and participate with | :02:50. | :02:56. | |
goodwill, so that people can enjoy the protections they should have. | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
However, since Lord Leveson issued his report, there has been | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
opposition within the press, and they still do not like a charter | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
that has been drawn up in Westminster. The industry is well | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
advanced into bringing in a new system, which is Levenson-compliant. | :03:12. | :03:19. | |
But it is one that the industry should ring out itself. That is what | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
was suggested, not to have one should ring out itself. That is what | :03:23. | :03:28. | |
foisted upon the industry. The final solution? A system that will provide | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
a complaint system that is independent and effective. The press | :03:31. | :03:37. | |
is far from convinced. Ross Hawkins is in Westminster for | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
us. So far, we have the Independent saying it is unlikely newspapers | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
will sign up to it. The Spectator has come out with a one word | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
response stash no. What happens if none of the newspapers sign up to | :03:50. | :03:57. | |
it? What usually happens when the politicians agree on competing | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
parties is they passed the law and make it happen but in this case | :04:00. | :04:01. | |
parties is they passed the law and political agreement is not enough. | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
The newspapers have grave reservations and will take some | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
convincing. Many of them Soubry regard the plan is giving | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
politicians too much power, and they have their own system, their own | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
plan for regulation which they are trying to press ahead with putting | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
in place. It could even be in place come the New Year. The challenge for | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
politicians will be to convince them, and it would be a great irony | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
and embarrassment to all the MPs who have discussed this for so long and | :04:28. | :04:34. | |
spent so much time and paper on this if at the end of the day the | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
regulatory system we got was not the one they agreed behind closed doors | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
today, but one that the newspapers wanted all along. | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
The Prime Minister has defended the handling of the Royal Mail sell-off, | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
after shares soared by over a third on the first day of trading. David | :04:49. | :04:54. | |
Cameron said the sale had got off to a good start which was good news for | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
shareholders and the company. But Labour is arguing that the | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
Government has sold the shares too cheaply and could have got a much | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
greater return for the taxpayer. The Communication Workers Union has | :05:03. | :05:05. | |
described the sell-off as "a tragedy", and will continue their | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
call for strike action next week. Robert Peston reports. | :05:08. | :05:17. | |
Royal Mail, a first-class privatisation in one way, because | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
the government is getting the £2 billion it wanted from selling 60% | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
of the company. But hang on. If it had sold out today's skyrocketing | :05:25. | :05:31. | |
share price, it would have got £700 million more. £2.7 billion. So was | :05:31. | :05:40. | |
this a second-class deal, with the business sold too cheaply? The | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
minister in charge says it is too early to say. What matters in terms | :05:43. | :05:49. | |
of value is what it looks like in six months, or years to come. The | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
objective of the government has been to get value for money. We sought | :05:53. | :05:58. | |
independent advice. Frenzied buying of Royal Mail shares pushed the | :05:58. | :06:04. | |
price up to eight peak of more than 450 9p this morning, 39% above the | :06:04. | :06:10. | |
price of 300 and 30p, which was received by the government for its | :06:10. | :06:16. | |
stake. A 10% rise in the first hours of dealings in a company that is new | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
to the stock market would be regarded as normal and natural, but | :06:20. | :06:26. | |
anything above 15% or 20% is seen as an indicator that the shares have | :06:26. | :06:31. | |
been underpriced. So why has the city gone bonkers for Royal Mail? | :06:31. | :06:39. | |
Our firm believes the shares are worth significantly more. £5 99, our | :06:39. | :06:46. | |
system is telling us. Also, 15,000 Royal Mail employees have invested | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
£52 million of their own money in the shares. Even postal workers who | :06:50. | :06:55. | |
opposed the sale have climbed on the bandwagon. I do not agree with | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
opposed the sale have climbed on the privatisation but I am happy to buy | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
the shares. I do not want to miss out on the opportunity to make some | :07:02. | :07:03. | |
money. A lot of other postmen out on the opportunity to make some | :07:03. | :07:10. | |
the same. What some may see is odd is a company that has apparently | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
seduced investors is set to be brought to a standstill by a strike. | :07:14. | :07:20. | |
We are due to announce the result of our ballot on industrial action and | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
we are confident of a big yes vote on the strike. Regardless who the | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
company is owned by, we will make sure the terms and conditions of | :07:27. | :07:32. | |
postal workers are protected. Royal Mail, delivered to cheaply to the | :07:32. | :07:37. | |
private sector. Many taxpayers might wince, but the 690,000 who bought | :07:37. | :07:43. | |
shares will not be moaning at their £250 windfalls. | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
Downing Street says the Prime Minister is ready to listen to ideas | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
for improving political oversight of the security services, but that | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
currently there are no Government the security services, but that | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
plans to review the system. There have been calls, including from the | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
Business Secretary, Vince Cable, for greater transparency with the | :07:55. | :07:57. | |
intelligence agencies, in the light of revelations published in the | :07:57. | :08:02. | |
Guardian newspaper. Gordon Corera reports. | :08:02. | :08:12. | |
Today, the row intensified over the damage to national security in | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
publishing secrets. In the wake of the disclosures by Edward Snowden | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
and the Guardian, who decides what the public should know about the | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
secret state, and how damaging might that be? The Prime Minister today | :08:23. | :08:29. | |
insisted he was satisfied there were strong safeguards for the work of | :08:29. | :08:34. | |
Britain's intelligence agencies. But the Deputy Prime Minister said there | :08:34. | :08:36. | |
was a debate to be had about accountability. Of course, there is | :08:36. | :08:42. | |
a legitimate wider debate, and ongoing debate, about how do you | :08:42. | :08:46. | |
make sure, as both the intelligence agencies and those who wish to do us | :08:46. | :08:51. | |
harm use these considerable new powers at their disposal, in | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
harm use these considerable new information technology, how do we | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
make sure that all of that is held properly to account? This began with | :08:58. | :09:02. | |
Edward Snowden, a former properly to account? This began with | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
intelligence contract, who fled with properly to account? This began with | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
classified documents. The Guardian used some of these to publish | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
stories about intelligence programmes run by Britain's | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
eavesdropping agency, GCHQ, arguing it was in the public interest. This | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
angered officials. What really worries them though, is that there | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
are many more secrets in the 58,000 documents. The government supervised | :09:24. | :09:29. | |
the destruction of computers at the Guardian but there are more copies | :09:29. | :09:32. | |
abroad, and the fear is that during Snowden's travels, Chinese and | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
Russian spies might have got hold of them. Earlier in the week, the head | :09:36. | :09:41. | |
of MI5 said that the disclosures were a gift to terrorists, helping | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
them evade surveillance. The damage could be that compared to that | :09:45. | :09:51. | |
inflicted by the Cambridge spies who gave secrets to Russia in the Cold | :09:51. | :09:55. | |
War, according to a former director of GCHQ. My fear is that we are now | :09:55. | :10:02. | |
going to witness a slow motion car crash in which, gradually, sources | :10:02. | :10:07. | |
dry up, targets, such as terrorists and cyber criminals will work out | :10:07. | :10:12. | |
what are the kind of capabilities and cyber criminals will work out | :10:12. | :10:18. | |
that we have, and they will adapt their methods. It will be harder to | :10:18. | :10:22. | |
track them down. The Guardian says the public have a right to know what | :10:22. | :10:27. | |
spies are capable of, especially if they might be able to spy on us, and | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
they dispute the damage. Today, they said other journalists around the | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
world support them. Edward Snowden made a rare appearance in Moscow | :10:35. | :10:40. | |
yesterday to receive an award, his work a source of increasingly bitter | :10:40. | :10:42. | |
argument. The body responsible for destroying | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
Syria's arsenal of chemical weapons has been awarded the Nobel Peace | :10:45. | :10:49. | |
Prize. The Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, | :10:49. | :10:51. | |
which is based in the Hague, was established 16 years ago and has | :10:51. | :10:55. | |
worked around the world. But its current mission in Syria has brought | :10:55. | :10:58. | |
its work into the limelight, as Rajesh Mirchandani reports. | :10:58. | :11:10. | |
This is the work of the OPCW, detecting, collecting and overseeing | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
the destruction of chemical weapons. And now its efforts have | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
been recognised at the highest level. The Nobel Peace Prize for | :11:17. | :11:26. | |
2013 is to be awarded to the Organisation for the Prohibition of | :11:26. | :11:32. | |
Chemical Weapons, OPCW. For its extensive work for eliminating | :11:32. | :11:37. | |
chemical weapons. The Nobel Committee said the award was for the | :11:37. | :11:42. | |
OPCW's long-standing efforts. Since it began operations in 1997, the | :11:42. | :11:48. | |
OPCW says it has carried out almost 5300 inspections in 86 different | :11:48. | :11:53. | |
countries. And it says more than 80% of the world's declared stockpile | :11:53. | :11:58. | |
has been verifiably destroyed. But these shocking pictures from near | :11:58. | :12:02. | |
Damascus show chemical weapons were used just a few weeks ago. Human | :12:02. | :12:07. | |
rights groups and the Syrian opposition wonder if it makes a | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
mockery of the Nobel Peace Prize. Right now, OPCW inspectors are in | :12:10. | :12:15. | |
mockery of the Nobel Peace Prize. Syria tracking down stockpiles of | :12:16. | :12:19. | |
poison gas. They say the prize adds impetus to this urgent challenge. | :12:19. | :12:25. | |
The condition the peace prize brings will spur us to even stronger | :12:25. | :12:33. | |
commitment and greater dedication. The OPCW's work in Syria has barely | :12:33. | :12:39. | |
begun, but with 100,000 dead through conventional weapons, can a Nobel | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
Peace Prize help bring about an end to the conflict? | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
The Nobel Prize-winning scientist Professor Peter Higgs has spoken | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
about what winning the prestigious award means to him. Professor Higgs | :12:49. | :12:52. | |
won the prize for physics for his work on the theory of the subatomic | :12:52. | :12:55. | |
particle, known as the God particle, which explains why the universe has | :12:56. | :12:57. | |
particle, known as the God particle, substance or mass. Today he revealed | :12:57. | :13:02. | |
he only found out about the award after a woman congratulated him in | :13:02. | :13:13. | |
the street. She told me that her daughter had phoned from London to | :13:13. | :13:14. | |
alert her to the fact that I had got daughter had phoned from London to | :13:14. | :13:20. | |
this prize. I learned more about it when I got home and started reading | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
the messages. A British soldier has been charged | :13:24. | :13:27. | |
by police with a number of sexual offences, including rape, on army | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
bases in south London. Edwin Mee, from Croydon, is accused of | :13:30. | :13:34. | |
assaulting 11 women and girls. A Ministry of Defence spokesperson | :13:34. | :13:36. | |
said, "Any individual who's found to have fallen short of the Services' | :13:36. | :13:39. | |
high standards will be dealt with administratively or through the | :13:39. | :13:41. | |
military discipline process, as appropriate". | :13:41. | :13:48. | |
Police in Nottinghamshire have discovered the remains of two people | :13:48. | :13:52. | |
in a garden near Mansfield. It is thought the bodies could have been | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
there for over a decade. Officers searched the address after | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
information came to light about an incident in the late 1990s. | :13:59. | :14:02. | |
Postmortem examinations are due to take place today, but it is believed | :14:02. | :14:07. | |
their identities will not be known for weeks, possibly months. | :14:07. | :14:13. | |
They account for just 5% of the mile strip on, but 20% of accidents. A | :14:13. | :14:18. | |
government commissioned report is suggesting curbs on teenage drivers | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
to try to make the roads safer. It suggests raising the minimum age for | :14:22. | :14:24. | |
the driving test from 17 to 18. Once suggests raising the minimum age for | :14:24. | :14:28. | |
they pass, they will face restrictions on when they can drive | :14:29. | :14:31. | |
and who they can carry as passengers. | :14:31. | :14:38. | |
For this 20-year-old, passing her driving test is a priority, but for | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
newly qualified young drivers, things could soon be changing. The | :14:42. | :14:49. | |
first year after passing their test could see them banned from the roads | :14:49. | :14:54. | |
after 10pm, and also barred from carrying passengers aged under 30. | :14:54. | :15:02. | |
For Jess, that is a problem. I am only 20 and I have a little boy, so | :15:02. | :15:05. | |
if I cannot have a passenger under 30, that would be a problem. Her | :15:06. | :15:12. | |
instructor is sympathetic but can see some benefits. I think the | :15:12. | :15:18. | |
proposals are good. I think you do need more lessons, especially for | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
snow and night-time driving, the experience of learning. The idea is | :15:22. | :15:28. | |
to cut down on the number of young drivers having accidents, but the | :15:28. | :15:31. | |
new rules could apply to novice drivers up to the age of 30. This is | :15:31. | :15:34. | |
not just about youth, but experience drivers up to the age of 30. This is | :15:34. | :15:39. | |
as well. People like this 27-year-old, who passed his test | :15:40. | :15:43. | |
today, could also face restrictions in future. It is a good idea, but | :15:43. | :15:50. | |
maybe the age needs to be altered. I am more responsible than an | :15:50. | :15:53. | |
18-year-old, with more life experience. At this school, many of | :15:53. | :16:00. | |
these sixth formers are learning to drive. How do they feel about not | :16:00. | :16:03. | |
these sixth formers are learning to being allowed to take their test | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
until they are 18, and complete more than 100 hours of practice? | :16:06. | :16:13. | |
Teenagers get a lot of bad press. We have taken the same test as every | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
other driver. If we have passed, surely we are responsible enough to | :16:17. | :16:23. | |
drive. Some of us work until ten o'clock at night and we cannot rely | :16:23. | :16:29. | |
on our parents to get us home. New drivers in Northern Ireland already | :16:29. | :16:33. | |
face restrictions, but will the rest of the UK follow? Road safety | :16:33. | :16:40. | |
charities say it should. Our top story: Three main parties | :16:40. | :16:46. | |
reach a deal on press regulation, but the reaction so far has not been | :16:46. | :16:53. | |
positive. Still to come, the lost episodes of | :16:53. | :16:59. | |
Doctor Who that ended up in Nigeria. Coming up in Sportsday, tributes are | :16:59. | :17:05. | |
paid to Formula One's Maria De Villota, the former test driver who | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
was found dead in a Spanish hotel room this morning. | :17:08. | :17:22. | |
The National trust is known as the guardian of some of the country's | :17:22. | :17:25. | |
most treasured landscapes and buildings. But it is also landlord | :17:25. | :17:29. | |
to thousands of tenants who live in around 5000 properties. Now some | :17:30. | :17:34. | |
tenants say they are being badly treated. The National Trust insist | :17:34. | :17:40. | |
they survey they carried out shows most tenants are happy. | :17:40. | :17:46. | |
The High Peaks, a beautiful, rugged landscape, nurtured and protected by | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
the National Trust. Most of the land is trust owned. Many of the houses, | :17:50. | :17:55. | |
too. This family thought they would be able to rent their house for many | :17:55. | :18:02. | |
years as most of the trust's tenants do. But in a few weeks they will be | :18:02. | :18:09. | |
required to pack up and move out. It is a bitter blow after they have | :18:09. | :18:12. | |
just spent £6,000 improving the property. Nobody is saying the | :18:12. | :18:18. | |
National Trust is breaking the law or even the rules. The family did | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
only sign an initial six-month project that matter contact -- | :18:22. | :18:29. | |
six-month contract. But they thought they would be able to stay longer. | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
It is an assurance the National Trust says was never made. | :18:33. | :18:42. | |
Appalling. Were devastated. -- we are devastated. I think we were | :18:42. | :18:50. | |
conned. It is making me feel ill. We don't expect them to change their | :18:50. | :18:54. | |
minds. We don't want this to happen to somebody else. The National | :18:54. | :18:58. | |
Trust's official tenants Association says there are growing problems. | :18:58. | :19:03. | |
The helpline takes calls about poor repairs, rising rent and | :19:03. | :19:09. | |
increasingly tenancy dispute. What we are looking for is a fair | :19:09. | :19:12. | |
increasingly tenancy dispute. deal for our tenants. We are getting | :19:12. | :19:14. | |
too many calls to do with the same deal for our tenants. We are getting | :19:14. | :19:19. | |
old problems. Leases, repairs and rental increases. Some of those | :19:19. | :19:25. | |
cases are quite heartbreaking. Of course, across the country, | :19:25. | :19:29. | |
thousands of National Trust tenants lived happily happily. | :19:29. | :19:35. | |
It says it doesn't -- lived perfectly happily. It says it | :19:35. | :19:41. | |
doesn't recognise reports of widespread discontent. But this | :19:42. | :19:45. | |
report shows some serious to satisfaction. A survey commissioned | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
by the trust itself concludes there is a disconnect between tenants' and | :19:49. | :19:58. | |
landlords 's dictations. -- expectations. | :19:58. | :20:05. | |
Your research suggests you have a problem. Dissatisfaction is present | :20:05. | :20:13. | |
and centred around poor quality of properties, low value of money and | :20:13. | :20:16. | |
poor service in terms of maintenance. We are not perfect. In | :20:16. | :20:23. | |
places, that is true. It is not a damning indictment. It is not | :20:23. | :20:27. | |
universal. We get the vast majority of what we do right. We are striving | :20:27. | :20:33. | |
to get better. Maintaining old and sometimes | :20:33. | :20:37. | |
ancient buildings is not easy. But the trust says 72% of its tenants | :20:37. | :20:43. | |
are satisfied with them. It is a privilege to live in a place | :20:43. | :20:48. | |
like this. I think you need to accept the National Trust are doing | :20:48. | :20:53. | |
all they can to preserve it. Among the significant number of tenants | :20:53. | :20:57. | |
who are not happy is Neil Priestley. When Landis to his existing farm can | :20:57. | :21:02. | |
up for rent, he jumped at the chance to grow his business. -- when land | :21:02. | :21:08. | |
next to his farm came up for rent. Again he was on a fixed contract. | :21:08. | :21:14. | |
Again, he was told he would have his contract renewed after 12 months. | :21:14. | :21:18. | |
But the National Trust note this and now requires him to move on. A total | :21:18. | :21:30. | |
lack of communication. They have gone down this road with disregard | :21:30. | :21:35. | |
for local people. The National Trust is among our best loved and | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
supported charities. The uncomfortable message from some of | :21:39. | :21:45. | |
its tenants is that it is better at conserving buildings and landscapes | :21:45. | :21:49. | |
than it is at looking after the people who rely on it for their | :21:49. | :21:56. | |
homes and their livelihoods. The female Formula One test driver, | :21:56. | :21:58. | |
Maria De Villota, has been found dead in a Spanish hotel. | :21:58. | :22:04. | |
She was one of only a handful of female Formula One drivers and loss | :22:04. | :22:07. | |
the sight of her right eye in an accident while testing for the | :22:07. | :22:13. | |
Marussia team in Cambridgeshire last year. Because of her hasn't been | :22:13. | :22:18. | |
confirmed. Ahead of England's final World Cup qualifiers, Roy Hodgson | :22:18. | :22:19. | |
says he is confident the team will World Cup qualifiers, Roy Hodgson | :22:19. | :22:25. | |
limit the performance they need against Montenegro tonight. | :22:25. | :22:29. | |
A win tonight and victory against Poland on Tuesday when a ensure | :22:29. | :22:34. | |
England finished top of their group and qualify for the tournament in | :22:34. | :22:36. | |
Brazil. The leader of Plaid Cymru and qualify for the tournament in | :22:36. | :22:44. | |
has announced plans to set up a body to drive down energy bills -- in | :22:44. | :22:46. | |
Wales. Leanne Wood also announced proposals | :22:46. | :22:50. | |
for 1000 more doctors paid for by a Leavy on sugary drinks. We are | :22:50. | :22:57. | |
committed to leading the next government of Wales so that we can | :22:58. | :23:03. | |
build Wales up, so that we can turn around the economic situation, so | :23:04. | :23:07. | |
that we can stand on our own two feet, so that Wales has a government | :23:07. | :23:13. | |
that always, without fail puts Wales first. | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
Nick Servini is in Aberystwyth. Leanne Wood calling for new | :23:16. | :23:18. | |
leadership. How realistic is that? | :23:18. | :23:25. | |
It is going to be difficult for her. A disappointing set of results | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
for the Welsh assembly last time. They are the third biggest party. A | :23:29. | :23:36. | |
lot of talk here about the Scottish independence referendum. Plaid Cymru | :23:36. | :23:41. | |
obviously want to get you a scenario where the SNP are in Scotland, where | :23:41. | :23:46. | |
people vote for them not necessarily where the SNP are in Scotland, where | :23:46. | :23:48. | |
because they believe in independence but because they believe they are a | :23:49. | :23:54. | |
credible alternative to Labour. That is what Leanne Wood is trying to | :23:54. | :23:57. | |
achieve with a number of these quite eye-catching proposals that she set | :23:57. | :24:02. | |
out today, particularly in relation to energy bills. He is a master of | :24:02. | :24:11. | |
travelling through time and space. But it seems the fictional qualities | :24:11. | :24:16. | |
of Doctor Who may have been rejected in the real world, too. | :24:16. | :24:21. | |
Nine missing episodes featuring the second Doctor, Patrick Troughton, | :24:21. | :24:25. | |
from the 1960s have been found in Nigeria. From today, the fans can | :24:25. | :24:30. | |
download the episodes. Lizo Mzimba reports. | :24:30. | :24:35. | |
Unseen since its first forecast in 1968, -- broadcast in 1968... One of | :24:35. | :24:46. | |
nine rediscovered Patrick Troughton episodes. The Doctor's companions | :24:46. | :24:53. | |
were played by Frazer Hines and Deborah Watling. It was quite | :24:53. | :24:59. | |
emotional. Actually, I haven't seen that story | :24:59. | :25:05. | |
since it went live 45 years ago. Until now, 106 episodes were thought | :25:05. | :25:10. | |
to have been lost. This group of nine represents the single biggest | :25:10. | :25:14. | |
discovery of previously missing episode in the last 25 years. The | :25:14. | :25:24. | |
original tapes have been wiped, but film copies were made for foreign | :25:25. | :25:30. | |
broadcasters. An archive expert set out to find them, held by the BBC's | :25:31. | :25:36. | |
overseas shipment records. He ended up in Nigeria. They were found at a | :25:36. | :25:44. | |
TV station in Jos. I saw a piece of masking tape on a shelf, I saw | :25:45. | :25:51. | |
Doctor Who, and I thought, oh, interesting. This discovery could | :25:51. | :26:00. | |
also be key to missing episodes of other TV series. Now we know, it | :26:00. | :26:07. | |
gives us a clue that there could be other titles in foreign archives. | :26:07. | :26:10. | |
This is something we should be looking at more closely. So as well | :26:10. | :26:17. | |
as Doctor Who, there could be other missing stories awaiting. Time for a | :26:17. | :26:26. | |
look at the weather. It is all changing. With a time machine, I | :26:26. | :26:32. | |
might have a better idea about the weekend's whether! | :26:32. | :26:35. | |
What we do know is that it's pouring with rain and has been for much of | :26:35. | :26:41. | |
the afternoon in parts of south-east England. That is going to continue | :26:41. | :26:45. | |
into the evening, to the south of London. Could be an inch of rain in | :26:45. | :26:49. | |
some places. This area will head further south-west through the | :26:49. | :26:56. | |
night. At the other end of the UK, it is much quieter. It has been a | :26:56. | :27:01. | |
glorious day in the West of Scotland. With clear skies, it is | :27:01. | :27:06. | |
going to be cold. It is going to feel cold in most places, despite | :27:06. | :27:10. | |
the fact that the numbers are better. As we go into tomorrow, | :27:10. | :27:16. | |
things will pick up nicely across southeastern parts of England. The | :27:16. | :27:21. | |
sun will come out and the winds will be lighter. Yorkshire and | :27:21. | :27:28. | |
Lincolnshire could see a lot of rain. Across the North of Scotland, | :27:28. | :27:34. | |
again, a lovely day. Central and southern parts of Scotland will get | :27:34. | :27:39. | |
more clout. There is an order -- area of rain in North East England. | :27:39. | :27:47. | |
A better day in parts of the south-east. Sunday is a bit of a | :27:47. | :27:56. | |
mess, frankly. There will be a batch of wet weather extending into | :27:56. | :28:00. | |
central and eastern parts of the UK. Some uncertainty over the | :28:00. | :28:05. | |
detail, but it looks like the far north-west of the UK is the best bet | :28:05. | :28:08. | |
for reliable weather. Much more detail online, including information | :28:08. | :28:13. | |
about a potentially catastrophic cyclone about to make landfall in | :28:13. | :28:19. | |
India. A reminder of our main story. The | :28:19. | :28:23. | |
three main political parties have reached a deal on press regulation | :28:23. | :28:27. | |
following the phone hacking scandal but so far there is no sign of | :28:27. | :28:30. | |
agreement from the newspapers. That is all from the News at Six. We | :28:30. | :28:32. | |
cannot | :28:32. | :28:33. |
