The police reveal more details about the three women who are believed to | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
have been kept as slaves for 30 years. The couple held in connection | :00:09. | :00:13. | |
with the case in south London had been arrested by police before in | :00:14. | :00:17. | |
the 1970s. The police say their investigation will take a | :00:18. | :00:25. | |
considerable time. The investigation we are conducting is about abuse, | :00:26. | :00:30. | |
physical, psychological and mental abuse, over a period of time. We are | :00:31. | :00:33. | |
talking about 30 years. Dozens of officers are working on | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
the investigation. So far they've seized 2500 pieces of evidence. | :00:38. | :00:40. | |
Also tonight: The former chairman of the Co-op Bank is arrested and the | :00:41. | :00:43. | |
Chancellor orders an investigation to what went wrong at the Co-op. | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
At least 49 people are killed, including three firefighters, after | :00:48. | :00:49. | |
a supermarket roof collapses in Latvia. | :00:50. | :00:56. | |
America remembers, 50 years since the assassination that shocked the | :00:57. | :01:01. | |
world, the death of JFK. And English wickets continue to | :01:02. | :01:03. | |
tumble in the Ashes. Coming up on BBC News, big talk | :01:04. | :01:19. | |
ahead of the big fight. Nose to nose on these of the super-middleweight | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
title bout. Good evening and welcome to the BBC | :01:23. | :01:44. | |
News at Six. It's been revealed the couple | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
arrested in south London on suspicion of keeping three women as | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
slaves for 30 years had come to the attention of the police before. They | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
were arrested in the 1970s. The police said the women may have | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
appeared to be part of a normal family but that a complicated and | :01:59. | :02:00. | |
disturbing picture of emotional control over many years was now | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
emerging. 37 officers are working on the investigation. So far they've | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
seized 2500 pieces of evidence. Tom Symonds is in West Norwood in South | :02:09. | :02:18. | |
London. The location of the house where this | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
happened has still not been revealed by Scotland Yard. We are in West | :02:23. | :02:28. | |
Norwood goes it is the constituency of Tessa Jowell MP, who says the | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
house is in her constituency. When officers arrived to arrest the | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
suspects, we are told there was no confrontation but it was the start | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
of a long and sensitive investigation. | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
It happened in what police would only described today as an | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
unremarkable house in an unremarkable street. The question | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
they are trying to answer is how three women were kept there for | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
three decades. The officer in charge says they were beaten, but they were | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
also put under a very different sort of pressure. In visible handcuffs is | :03:01. | :03:07. | |
a good explanation, because people feel they are controlled, they have | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
to do as they are told, and yet to the naked eye there is no control | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
whatsoever. It is all psychological. It might be through fear. That is | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
what we are looking at. What police called a unique investigation began | :03:24. | :03:26. | |
when the women managed to get access to a telephone. They used it to call | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
the helpline of a charity which persuaded them to meet with police | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
officers. They are an Irish woman, 57, a Malaysia on, 69, and a | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
30-year-old British woman said to have spent her entire life | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
ineffective captivity. It was a month before the suspects, a man and | :03:46. | :03:54. | |
a woman aged 67, were arrested. The entire 37 person specialist slavery | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
and trafficking team is working on this case, which is getting major | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
international media interest. It will take a long time to | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
investigate, they said, which is why both suspects have been given bail. | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
Scotland Yard told reporters the unidentified house had searched and | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
55 bags of potential evidence taken away. The victims came forward after | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
seeing news reports on forced marriages, including this one by the | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
BBC in early October. The woman who featured in this report has worked | :04:26. | :04:32. | |
closely with the three women. It is incredibly emotional working with | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
the three ladies because they have been through such a harrowing | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
experience. Trying to help them rebuild their lives will be a long | :04:39. | :04:44. | |
journey. Experts warn that modern day slavery is a hidden problem in | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
British cities, often only discovered when victims come | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
forward. Those who work with them say that once that has happened it | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
can be a delicate process. People who have been kept in servitude may | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
not know where they are. They have had no contact with the outside | :05:02. | :05:04. | |
world so they will need a lot of time to make adjustments, and there | :05:05. | :05:11. | |
may be physical mistreatment. But winning the trust of victims is | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
crucial, because they are the best source of evidence. Without them, | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
convictions become much harder. Despite today's briefing, police | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
could not give many answers to the questions we asked. Why was a | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
British, Malaysia and an Irish woman in the house in the first place? Who | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
are the parents of the 30-year-old? And why did the suspects come to the | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
attention of police in the 1970s? Police have the answers to some | :05:40. | :05:45. | |
attention of police in the 1970s? these questions but were giving no | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
details. The disgraced former chairman of the | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
Co-operative Bank, Paul Flowers, has been arrested as part of an | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
investigation into the supply of illegal drugs. And the Chancellor, | :05:57. | :05:58. | |
George Osborne, has ordered an independent investigation into what | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
went wrong at the Co-op. Danny Savage reports. | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
For nearly a week, the life of Paul Flowers has been under intense | :06:06. | :06:07. | |
scrutiny. Last night the former chairman of the Co-op Bank was | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
arrested. He has been questioned today in connection with this video | :06:14. | :06:16. | |
in which it is alleged he handed over money to buy cocaine. Outside a | :06:17. | :06:24. | |
police station in Leeds today, his solicitor faced many questions as he | :06:25. | :06:31. | |
came and went. Is he embarrassed? I am making no comment. Do you think | :06:32. | :06:40. | |
he will be given bail? I hope so. He is a man of good character. West | :06:41. | :06:46. | |
Yorkshire Police have been saying they are looking into allegations | :06:47. | :06:49. | |
surrounding Paul Flowers and in the last 24 hours they have acted. But | :06:50. | :06:52. | |
it is the revelations about his public life that have pushed this | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
issue to the top of it is politics. I think the people who built this | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
are to be commended. The Methodist minister stood down as a Labour | :07:03. | :07:07. | |
councillor in Bradford after adult material was found on his computer. | :07:08. | :07:10. | |
Other councillors were told he left because of work pressures. Some of | :07:11. | :07:14. | |
them blame labour for not telling them the real reason he left. I have | :07:15. | :07:20. | |
asked for a full investigation and for the results to be published so | :07:21. | :07:23. | |
that people can judge who did what, when, and what were their motives. | :07:24. | :07:30. | |
Now suspended by the Labour Party, senior figures have distanced | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
themselves from him. It has also emerged that Paul Flowers' home in | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
Bradford is owned by the Methodist church. They say even though he is | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
suspended as a clergyman, he can stay here. Paul Flowers has faced | :07:44. | :07:50. | |
some tough questions in the past. Today, he faced some more, but not | :07:51. | :07:55. | |
in the high echelons of politics or business, but at a police station. | :07:56. | :08:03. | |
The trustees running the much criticised Muslim Al-Madinah free | :08:04. | :08:09. | |
school in Derby have all resigned to allow new management of the school, | :08:10. | :08:12. | |
following a critical Ofsted report which described the school as | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
dysfunctional, and there were rumours of financial mismanagement. | :08:17. | :08:22. | |
The Al-Madinah School, already in special measures following an Ofsted | :08:23. | :08:28. | |
report that highlighted failings. And now, the Department for | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
Education says a more experienced management team is required to make | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
improvements. Parents collecting children this evening were still die | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
jesting the latest element. Are you happy with how it is being run? No. | :08:39. | :08:47. | |
Are you welcoming the decision to bring in someone with more | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
experience? Yes, of course. I want the school successful. I feel happy | :08:52. | :09:00. | |
my child goes here. The publicity has been nothing but negative. If it | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
is the case that it needs improving, fair enough, let's bring | :09:05. | :09:09. | |
improvements. In a letter to Governor is published today, the | :09:10. | :09:13. | |
education minister said, I cannot tolerate any child experiencing a | :09:14. | :09:19. | |
poor quality of education in any state funded school. I have decided | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
the needs of the pupils at Al-Madinah would be best served by | :09:24. | :09:26. | |
bringing in a more experienced trust. This is the man he has asked | :09:27. | :09:31. | |
to step in. He said he comes from an organisation with experience of | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
transforming struggling schools. The Greenwood Dale Foundation Trust | :09:37. | :09:41. | |
ready runs 22 academies. There has to be a commitment from all | :09:42. | :09:45. | |
partners, whether it is our trust, the staff, parents and pupils and | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
the community to work together. If we can do that, get that commit and, | :09:50. | :09:53. | |
to make sure we move the school on into something that is going to be | :09:54. | :09:59. | |
successful, anything is possible. In a statement this evening, the trust | :10:00. | :10:03. | |
says it will ensure the transition of Al-Madinah is smooth and the | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
ethos of the faith designated school remains secure. But in this letter | :10:08. | :10:11. | |
from Lord Nash it appears clear that the current trustees are no longer | :10:12. | :10:16. | |
entrusted with the future running of the school. | :10:17. | :10:22. | |
Five Britons arrested by Russian authorities chewing a Greenpeace | :10:23. | :10:25. | |
protest in the Arctic have been released from prison on bail. They | :10:26. | :10:29. | |
were among a number of activists and journalists arrested on board the | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
environmental group's ship, the Arctic Sunrise. Alexandra Harris | :10:35. | :10:37. | |
spoke about how tough the conditions had Dean. In the first week, it was | :10:38. | :10:47. | |
hard, really hard. It was nerve racking, not knowing what was going | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
on. I was in a cell on my own. But you get used to it. | :10:52. | :10:58. | |
At least 49 people have been killed, including three firefighters, after | :10:59. | :11:02. | |
a section of roof collapsed at a supermarket in the Latvian capital, | :11:03. | :11:05. | |
Riga. The lease have launched a criminal investigation. It is | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
thought more people could be trapped under the rubble. -- police have | :11:11. | :11:16. | |
launched an investigation. 5000 square feet of this roof | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
collapsed yesterday, crushing shoppers below at what was a | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
particularly busy time. There was an almighty crash, as the ceiling | :11:25. | :11:30. | |
started to collapse around us. We were immediately plunged into | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
darkness. There was debris all around us. Food produce was spilling | :11:35. | :11:41. | |
across the floor, and also people as well. Since then, rescue teams have | :11:42. | :11:49. | |
been searching for people trapped under the rubble. It is still not | :11:50. | :11:53. | |
known how many there may be. But throughout the day, bodies have been | :11:54. | :11:57. | |
removed. The number of dead is increasing steadily. Among those | :11:58. | :12:03. | |
killed, three firemen who had rushed in to help, just as more of the roof | :12:04. | :12:11. | |
collapsed. This garden being built on top of the roof may have caused | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
the disaster. Sand and other building materials were loaded here | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
in recent weeks is, with rainwater apparently adding to the weight. And | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
already the government has announced there will be a police enquiry. This | :12:26. | :12:31. | |
evening, an anxious wait continues for those whose loved ones are still | :12:32. | :12:36. | |
missing in what has been the worst tragedy Latvia has suffered since | :12:37. | :12:46. | |
independence more than 20 years ago. People across America will fall | :12:47. | :12:49. | |
silent shortly to remember President John F Kennedy, who was shot dead in | :12:50. | :12:54. | |
Dallas 50 years ago today. A minute of silence will be observed, with | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
flags lowered across the country. A special memorial service is taking | :13:00. | :13:05. | |
place. This is where Kennedy was killed, | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
called afterwards the city of hate, still trying to make amends. Today, | :13:10. | :13:14. | |
they will join in celebrating an icon who intrigues America. Its | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
youngest president, its first Catholic, seemed to offer a fresh | :13:19. | :13:21. | |
vision for a country changing fast. His youthful promise and his wife's | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
glamour add-in charted much of America. This tour was intended to | :13:27. | :13:34. | |
charm Texas, too. Something has happened in the motorcade. Stand by. | :13:35. | :13:40. | |
The hospital has been advised to stand by for a severe gunshot wound. | :13:41. | :13:45. | |
It appears as though someone in the limousine might have been hit by the | :13:46. | :13:50. | |
gunfire. We understand there has been a shooting. There is a Secret | :13:51. | :13:56. | |
Service man spread-eagled over the top of the car. President Kennedy | :13:57. | :14:04. | |
has been assassinated. It is official. The president is dead. | :14:05. | :14:11. | |
Daniel took me to the spot where he stood, a 15-year-old schoolboy, | :14:12. | :14:18. | |
hoping to shake Kennedy's hand. I saw the president coming. He was | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
like this, and he was going like that. It sounded like he was | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
choking. And all of a sudden, I saw the look on his wife's face as she | :14:28. | :14:35. | |
turned towards him, and she turned away from that and looked straight | :14:36. | :14:41. | |
at me. The look of horror on her face really freaked me out. I had to | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
run. I had to get out of here. When the shots came from a window in that | :14:48. | :14:51. | |
ill doing and hit Kennedy, there are, in his motorcade, it was for | :14:52. | :14:57. | |
many Americans as though hope had wide. His reputation is still | :14:58. | :15:01. | |
highly. Poll after poll indicates the majority of Americans think he | :15:02. | :15:04. | |
was better than any president who has followed. At the Southern | :15:05. | :15:09. | |
Methodist University they make a study of JFK and his legend. They | :15:10. | :15:14. | |
know about the dark side, his womanising and medical secrets, but | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
they say he has vital meaning today. We have a much harsher look on him | :15:19. | :15:23. | |
because we know those flaws. Yet we look back at him with this sense of | :15:24. | :15:29. | |
hope was his life was cut so short. For me, Kennedy represents the best | :15:30. | :15:38. | |
of America. John F Kennedy's call to action is still as relevant today as | :15:39. | :15:44. | |
it was in the early 1960s. People are arriving to celebrate the life | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
of a man who did not live to disappoint and has become a blank | :15:49. | :15:51. | |
canvas on which Americans can draw their dreams. Nick Bryant is in | :15:52. | :16:01. | |
Dallas, how is President Kennedy being remembered? Well, we have just | :16:02. | :16:06. | |
heard the national anthem, beginning a commemorative ceremony here in | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
Dealey Plaza. Thousands of people have gathered, many of them people | :16:11. | :16:13. | |
who were here on that fateful day who saw the motorcade come down and | :16:14. | :16:18. | |
turn slowly into this Plaza where Kennedy was killed. There is going | :16:19. | :16:22. | |
to be a fly-past in the missing man formation and a moment's silence, | :16:23. | :16:26. | |
bells ringing out across Dallas, prayers now. Kennedy was a naval | :16:27. | :16:32. | |
commander, he sustained terrible injuries during World War II, and it | :16:33. | :16:36. | |
is one of the reasons why he was wearing a back brace and why he | :16:37. | :16:39. | |
remained upright after he was hit by the first bullet and why he was a | :16:40. | :16:44. | |
target for the second, and other what if of the Kennedy | :16:45. | :16:48. | |
assassination. The time has just gone quarter past | :16:49. | :16:52. | |
six, our top story this evening: Police have revealed that the couple | :16:53. | :16:55. | |
held on suspicion of giving three women as slaves for 30 years have | :16:56. | :17:00. | |
been arrested before in the 1970s. Still to come, join me in the | :17:01. | :17:06. | |
Doctor's TARDIS, I sneaked a peak when he was saving the universe. | :17:07. | :17:13. | |
In Sportsday on BBC News, ten years since England won the trophy, we | :17:14. | :17:16. | |
look back on the tension and triumph of that day in 2003 when England | :17:17. | :17:27. | |
became Rugby World Cup you. -- Rugby World Cup champions. | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
The death toll from the typhoon in the Philippines has now risen to | :17:33. | :17:35. | |
more than 5000. Two weeks after Typhoon Haiyan, aid has been coming | :17:36. | :17:41. | |
in, and families are battling to get life back to some kind of | :17:42. | :17:44. | |
normality. 4 million people have been left homeless and so far 57 | :17:45. | :17:50. | |
million pounds has been raised in donations by the Disasters Emergency | :17:51. | :17:53. | |
Committee appeal. Jeremy Cooke spent the day with one family in | :17:54. | :17:57. | |
Tacloban, one of the worst hit cities. | :17:58. | :18:02. | |
There has been so much chaos, but now at last there is order. The aid | :18:03. | :18:14. | |
is arriving in Tacloban, systems to guarantee that everyone has food and | :18:15. | :18:18. | |
water. Rebuilding will take years, but getting the power back on line | :18:19. | :18:24. | |
would help. No time for health and safety here, this is urgent work. | :18:25. | :18:32. | |
And in every neighbourhood, the people themselves are fighting back. | :18:33. | :18:39. | |
For this family, the battle to retake their lives starts here. | :18:40. | :18:43. | |
Their mission is to wash away all traces of the killer typhoon. With | :18:44. | :18:48. | |
their school destroyed, the girls, Angel and Stephanie, are helping | :18:49. | :18:54. | |
out, doing all they can. But in doors their grandmother, 68-year-old | :18:55. | :19:00. | |
Delia, is contemplating ruin. Her brave face briefly breaks with | :19:01. | :19:09. | |
tension and anxiety. You know, it is hard, I was born here, and I cannot | :19:10. | :19:14. | |
afford to leave this place at my age. In reality, she and her | :19:15. | :19:19. | |
neighbours have little time to indulge in emotion. There is work to | :19:20. | :19:25. | |
do on this street, and they are getting on with it. Sammy is her | :19:26. | :19:33. | |
cousin. He has a house full of mud, but he also has food, water, a | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
home-made shovel and plenty of attitude. A positive attitude. After | :19:38. | :19:47. | |
war, there is peace. After the rain, sunshine. As long as you still live, | :19:48. | :19:55. | |
you have breath, go on, move on. Clearly, there is still so much work | :19:56. | :20:00. | |
to do here, but it is through their own hard work that the people | :20:01. | :20:04. | |
themselves are making all the difference, cleaning up and moving | :20:05. | :20:07. | |
on, determined that their city and their region will rise again. | :20:08. | :20:16. | |
The fundraising efforts for the Philippines disaster were given a | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
helping hand today after Victoria and David Beckham emptied their | :20:21. | :20:22. | |
wardrobes to raise money for the victims of the typhoon. A Red Cross | :20:23. | :20:27. | |
charity shop in central London was swamped with people trying to get | :20:28. | :20:30. | |
hold of some of their design cast-offs. | :20:31. | :20:35. | |
De Government has cancelled plans to privatise the management of three | :20:36. | :20:38. | |
prisons because of the continuing criminal investigation into private | :20:39. | :20:43. | |
security provider Serco. The group had been named as the leading bidder | :20:44. | :20:48. | |
to run some jails but is being investigated by the Serious Fraud | :20:49. | :20:51. | |
Office of its government contract for electronic tagging. | :20:52. | :20:55. | |
Cricket, and England suffered a humiliating batting collapse on the | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
second day of the first Ashes Test, having bowled Australia out for 295, | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
they made just 132. Australia added another 65 at the close without | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
losing a wicked, as Joe Wilson reports. | :21:11. | :21:16. | |
As you enter the Gabba, there is a picture of Aussie cricketers as | :21:17. | :21:19. | |
working-class heroes, unwashed warriors ready for battle, or | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
marketing, but suddenly Australia's cricket matches the image. There is | :21:24. | :21:27. | |
nothing fake about Ryan Harris. Charging in has what he does, too | :21:28. | :21:31. | |
good for Alastair Cook, England one down in reply to Australia's 295. | :21:32. | :21:37. | |
Mitchell Johnson, so mocked for inaccuracy, struck before lunch. | :21:38. | :21:44. | |
England were 55-2. Kevin Pietersen? In his 100th test, he made 18. | :21:45. | :21:50. | |
Caught by Bailey, bowled by Harris. Michael Carberry, in his Second Test | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
match, battled to 40, but Johnson got him, and England were gripped by | :21:55. | :22:04. | |
fear. Bell made five. Matt Prior went to this spin, replays proved he | :22:05. | :22:08. | |
had hit the ball, three wickets had fallen with a score of 87. Johnson | :22:09. | :22:15. | |
tour in like a fast bowler we bone, Joe Root help them. When Graeme | :22:16. | :22:19. | |
Swann was out, England have lost six wickets for nine runs. In terms of | :22:20. | :22:23. | |
batting collapses, it was almost an all-time low. England were all out | :22:24. | :22:28. | |
for 136. Australia have made an issue of start to their second | :22:29. | :22:32. | |
innings, they will resume over 200 ahead on the third day. They have | :22:33. | :22:36. | |
fought their way into a winning position, now they just have to | :22:37. | :22:38. | |
remember how to win. Now, it may feel like the blink of | :22:39. | :22:47. | |
an night at the time lord himself, but it has been half a century since | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
the first Doctor Who appeared on our screens and ten have followed. To | :22:52. | :22:55. | |
celebrate the milestone, a special episode is being shown on ABC one | :22:56. | :22:59. | |
tomorrow. Will Gompertz assesses the impact of the world's | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
longest-running sci-fi programme. -- on BBC One tomorrow. | :23:05. | :23:21. | |
It really is, you know, bigger on the inside! | :23:22. | :23:33. | |
50 years ago at 5:15pm on the 23rd of November 1963, a mysterious exile | :23:34. | :23:44. | |
from another world appeared on BBC One. Get back to the ship! The tone | :23:45. | :23:51. | |
for the show was set not by the writers or producers, but by the | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
ingenious techies of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, who could make | :23:57. | :23:58. | |
lo-fi sound hi-tech. Is a goodie is going to be really | :23:59. | :24:11. | |
good, he needs a baddie who is really bad, and the programme has | :24:12. | :24:19. | |
created some iconic foes including cybernetic armies, but it was the | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
introduction in only the second story of the most heinous, demotic | :24:25. | :24:28. | |
mutants that made it and them famous. The Daleks! Exterminate, | :24:29. | :24:32. | |
exterminate! The Key has survived the Daleks, so | :24:33. | :24:44. | |
far, and as they say, what does not kill you makes you stronger. -- the | :24:45. | :24:50. | |
Key. Doctor Who had become appointment to view, TV must see. | :24:51. | :24:57. | |
But if you had to give just one reason for the lasting success of | :24:58. | :24:58. | |
the show, it would be this. THEME MUSIC PLAYS To make the doctor | :24:59. | :25:12. | |
capable of reincarnation was a brilliant idea. | :25:13. | :25:14. | |
It allowed the show to stay fresh and the character to develop, each | :25:15. | :25:19. | |
new Doctor would have a different personality and tastes, but some | :25:20. | :25:22. | |
characteristics have always stayed the same. He is essentially an upper | :25:23. | :25:35. | |
middle-class English eccentric. In 1989, the brand had grown tired. | :25:36. | :25:40. | |
That was a nice nap, now down to business! Audiences were falling, | :25:41. | :25:44. | |
and enthusiasm within the BBC was waning. But in 2005, under the | :25:45. | :25:50. | |
creative direction of scriptwriter Russell D Davies, the Whoniverse was | :25:51. | :25:53. | |
brought back to life. The trip of a lifetime! Geronimo! | :25:54. | :26:05. | |
Academics have discussed bill is that the issues arising from it, the | :26:06. | :26:11. | |
programme has been the inspiration for books and even electronic music. | :26:12. | :26:16. | |
It is a children's programme that became a cult hit which turned into | :26:17. | :26:21. | |
a global brand and, perhaps, one of the most culturally significant | :26:22. | :26:22. | |
programmes to have been made. He will come back at some point. | :26:23. | :26:35. | |
Tomasz Schafernaker has the weather. It is going to be quite bland over | :26:36. | :26:49. | |
the next few days, staying chilly, that is for sure, fairly cloudy with | :26:50. | :26:55. | |
some sunshine, but it is going to be dry. High pressure is in charge of | :26:56. | :26:59. | |
the weather for the next few days, right into the coming week, and the | :27:00. | :27:03. | |
wind is blowing around like so, dragging all of that cloud across | :27:04. | :27:07. | |
the North Atlantic, in the direction of the UK, so over the next couple | :27:08. | :27:11. | |
of days it is the northern part of the country that will have a bit | :27:12. | :27:16. | |
more cloud compared to the south and south-west. Certainly some frost | :27:17. | :27:20. | |
around tonight, but not a lot of air frost, just sheltered spots will get | :27:21. | :27:24. | |
it, but freezing fog in one or two places tomorrow morning as well. | :27:25. | :27:27. | |
This is nine o'clock, you might already be out and about, through | :27:28. | :27:31. | |
the lowlands of Scotland, around zero degrees, the same goes for | :27:32. | :27:35. | |
northern part of England. Further south, it is a touch warmer, or less | :27:36. | :27:40. | |
cold, around two or three degrees, but some sunshine across the South | :27:41. | :27:44. | |
West at least. The winds will be like here, so that sparkling | :27:45. | :27:48. | |
sunshine with crisp conditions will feel quite pleasant, actually, if | :27:49. | :27:52. | |
you are dressed appropriately. Now, the afternoon is going to bring | :27:53. | :27:56. | |
bigger cloud towards northern areas, there might be tiny spots of rain, | :27:57. | :28:00. | |
one or two light showers in the very far south-east of the country, but | :28:01. | :28:04. | |
on balance a dry day with some sunshine instant riches in single | :28:05. | :28:08. | |
figures. The outlook for Sunday, not an awful lot changes, it will not be | :28:09. | :28:14. | |
cloudy all the time, there will be sunshine the towns and cities, but | :28:15. | :28:18. | |
where the fog persists, temperatures could only be around one degree, so | :28:19. | :28:22. | |
in 12 places it is going to be on the cold side. That is it. | :28:23. | :28:28. | |
Thank you, Tomasz. That is all from the News At | :28:29. | :28:29. |
