:01:45. > :01:51.Good evening and welcome to the BBC news. At the court-martial of three
:01:52. > :01:59.Royal Marines accused of killing an Afghan, an audio tape has been made
:02:00. > :02:04.public. One Marine can be heard offering to shoot the Afghan in the
:02:05. > :02:07.head. Laughter and a gunshot are heard. All three have pleaded not
:02:08. > :02:16.guilty. Caroline Wyatt is in Bulford. The evidence has been
:02:17. > :02:20.pretty harrowing? That is right. The court martial has gone on for more
:02:21. > :02:23.than two weeks. There has been much evidence heard in open court. We
:02:24. > :02:36.have not seen the defendants because of the anonymity. They have said
:02:37. > :02:40.behind a screen. The prosecution showed the video in full to the
:02:41. > :02:45.board, or the jury, made up entirely of seven personnel from the Royal
:02:46. > :02:50.Marines and the Royal Navy. This was a highly unusual case. The
:02:51. > :02:55.first time British forces have been put on trial for murder during the
:02:56. > :03:02.12 year campaign in Afghanistan. Three Royal Marines were accused of
:03:03. > :03:12.murdering an unknown Afghan in Helmand province. They were granted
:03:13. > :03:18.anonymity. That they they had been sent out to a field near their base
:03:19. > :03:21.to do battlefield damage assessment after an Apache attack helicopter
:03:22. > :03:26.was called in to fire at an insurgent. For the first time we can
:03:27. > :03:32.show you stills taken from the video footage from Marine B's helmet
:03:33. > :03:36.camera, which sparked this trial after it was found a computer by
:03:37. > :03:42.civilian police. The audio of what happened was released today. On it,
:03:43. > :04:12.all three marines discuss what to do with the wounded enemy
:04:13. > :04:17.but the personal camera is switched back on again will stop and then, I
:04:18. > :04:45.should warn you, a shot can be heard.
:04:46. > :04:51.The defence from Marine a was that he thought the insurgent was already
:04:52. > :04:57.dead when he fired a pistol. Marines see said he did not realise that the
:04:58. > :05:01.first Marine had fired his weapon and that the discussions were simply
:05:02. > :05:09.dark soldier humour. The Royal Marines faced tough and repeated
:05:10. > :05:18.attacks in Helmand. They lost seven of the own men.
:05:19. > :05:21.The jury on board heard the judge's summing up yesterday and into this
:05:22. > :05:26.morning. He told them to use their judgement on the experience of
:05:27. > :05:29.service life in order to judge each of the defendant's cases
:05:30. > :05:33.individually. They deliberated today. They were sent on tonight.
:05:34. > :05:38.Tomorrow they will continue those deliberations.
:05:39. > :05:42.Thank you, Caroline Wyatt. For the first time, three heads of
:05:43. > :05:46.Britain's spy agencies have appeared in front of MPs and in front of
:05:47. > :05:51.television cameras. A committee of senior MPs and Peers questioned the
:05:52. > :05:56.heads of MI5, MI6 and GHQ for 90 minutes. They said their work
:05:57. > :06:00.protected liberty and democracy in Britain. They claimed revelations by
:06:01. > :06:08.Edward Snowden and damaged the UK's security.
:06:09. > :06:13.Not long ago the identity of these three men would itself have been
:06:14. > :06:17.secret. Their job, to spy for Britain and run its three
:06:18. > :06:21.intelligence agencies. Andrew Parker is the head of the Security service,
:06:22. > :06:28.MI5, dealing with domestic threats like terrorism. Sir John Sawers is
:06:29. > :06:34.the chief of MI6, collecting intelligence abroad from agents. Sir
:06:35. > :06:37.Iain Lobban is the director of GCHQ which monitors global
:06:38. > :06:43.Communications. All three warned of the threats they see, especially
:06:44. > :06:46.from terrorism. More British citizens have been killed overseas
:06:47. > :06:52.in 2013 than in the previous seven years combined. I think our job is
:06:53. > :07:02.harder, has got harder, is getting harder. 34 plots have been disrupted
:07:03. > :07:05.in this country. GCHQ -- GCHQ has been in the spotlight recently with
:07:06. > :07:10.questions over whether it has been using its surveillance against
:07:11. > :07:17.ordinary people. The agency heads said it was not listening to
:07:18. > :07:25.people's phone calls. That led to a question from Sir Malcolm Rifkind. I
:07:26. > :07:29.will say that I believe that certain methods should remain secret. We
:07:30. > :08:33.have to talk about whether there has been damage from that. I do not
:08:34. > :08:41.think There were no angry exchanges and no secret Scots built. But what
:08:42. > :08:46.those of us upstairs in the room got was a glimpse of what Britain's
:08:47. > :08:56.spies are really like. Most of what they do will continue to be secret.
:08:57. > :09:01.MPs set least ?140 million spent on the government's flagship welfare
:09:02. > :09:08.reform, universal credit, they have to be written off. The government
:09:09. > :09:14.insists the scheme will continue to be rolled out step I step. Our
:09:15. > :09:19.Deputy political editor has more. It is one of the government's list
:09:20. > :09:23.reforms, an attempt to overhaul the welfare system which will affect
:09:24. > :09:29.millions of people. Some people are worried it will not go to plan. My
:09:30. > :09:33.worry is there is enough blame to go around. This case indicates a
:09:34. > :09:39.fundamental failure of leadership across the piece. The aim of
:09:40. > :09:44.universal credit is to create a welfare system which is simpler and
:09:45. > :09:47.cheaper. Six benefits such as job-seeker's allowance and tax
:09:48. > :09:55.credits will be merged into one single credit. 8 million households
:09:56. > :09:59.receiving benefit could be affected. Some of those testing the new scheme
:10:00. > :10:06.say it does not work. Ron Beswick started claiming two months ago when
:10:07. > :10:12.he lost his building job. It does not do what it says on the box.
:10:13. > :10:19.Nothing happens in the timescales they are saying. A string of
:10:20. > :10:23.critical reports raises implications, above all about the
:10:24. > :10:32.computer systems needed to process claims. Today a report criticising
:10:33. > :10:37.is the extremely poor management, leaving personal assistants
:10:38. > :10:44.authorising deals. In all, ?140 million of unused software may have
:10:45. > :10:46.to be written off. Who is to blame? The man ultimately responsible is
:10:47. > :10:57.Iain Duncan Smith. He insists actions have been taken. Others
:10:58. > :11:02.blame Robert Devereux. Today there were claims that Mr Duncan Smith and
:11:03. > :11:09.his allies had asked Tory MPs to criticise directly in their report.
:11:10. > :11:14.Iain Duncan Smith did not approach me. Beyond that, I cannot comment.
:11:15. > :11:26.This blame game shows what is at stake. Ministers believe that making
:11:27. > :11:29.cuts in welfare is popular. But the problems are jeopardising the
:11:30. > :11:33.Government's reputation. The Government are taking it
:11:34. > :11:38.step-by-step. The way we are doing it is not by some big bank project
:11:39. > :11:42.we saw from the Labour government. We are taking it step-by-step, first
:11:43. > :11:47.in Manchester, now in London, to make sure we get it right. The
:11:48. > :11:51.latest plans to rescue universal credit will be announced within
:11:52. > :11:56.weeks. The idea of introducing the scheme more slowly is being
:11:57. > :12:00.considered by ministers. The jury in the hacking trial of
:12:01. > :12:04.Rebekah Brooks and Andy Coulson has heard that recordings of voice mail
:12:05. > :12:08.mail 's were found in a safe at News International. The messages were
:12:09. > :12:12.left by former Home Secretary David Blunkett on the mobile phone account
:12:13. > :12:21.of a woman he was in a relationship with. Tom Symonds is at the Old
:12:22. > :12:26.Bailey. What was said in court? The 2004 saw -- story of David Blunkett
:12:27. > :12:31.and Kimberly Quinn and the affair never having, was a big front-page
:12:32. > :12:36.splash. The court heard it was sourced through phone hacking. Those
:12:37. > :12:42.voice mail messages were, the court heard, deeply personal. They were
:12:43. > :12:45.found with the recordings of them in a safe at News International, along
:12:46. > :12:48.with a piece of paper which had a version of the story written by
:12:49. > :12:53.Neville Thurlbeck, the chief reporter of the News of the World.
:12:54. > :13:00.He used the code names big ears and noddy. The court heard that Andy
:13:01. > :13:05.Coulson, then the editor, went to David Blunkett and said he had this
:13:06. > :13:10.story, in an attempt to get it's confirmed. The conversation they had
:13:11. > :13:13.was recorded. The jury heard the tape. Mr Coulson said that if the
:13:14. > :13:17.story was true and if Mr Blunkett did not deal with it, then his
:13:18. > :13:23.sources would take that information to another newspaper. Mr Coulson did
:13:24. > :13:27.say that he was not able to lay out clear-cut evidence, but he believed
:13:28. > :13:30.it to be true. It was the Crown's case that he could not lay at the
:13:31. > :13:35.evidence because it was illegally gathered. The Crown say that Andy
:13:36. > :13:39.Coulson knows all about that. Mr Coulson denies the charges against
:13:40. > :13:43.him. A man accused of the manslaughter of
:13:44. > :13:47.two teenage girls who died after being hit by a car, sobbed in court
:13:48. > :13:51.as the details of the crash were read out. Samuel Etherington from

:18:56. > :19:01.since the disaster. Now the operation to take those out is going
:19:02. > :19:05.to begin. It will be a difficult and delicate operation. The fuel may
:19:06. > :19:12.have been damaged so pulling it out like this could be dangerous. Some
:19:13. > :19:16.antinuclear groups say and accident during this operation could be
:19:17. > :19:23.catastrophic. What does the man in charge say? Is it safe to say that
:19:24. > :19:33.scenario is impossible? Another large-scale disaster is impossible?
:19:34. > :19:41.TRANSLATION: I personally think it is impossible. Even if this goes

:19:48. > :19:50.When we were back inside reactor building number four, my radiation
:19:51. > :19:57.monitor was reading about 250 counts per second. This behind me is
