:00:00. > :00:00.Heading into a second night - no deal yet for David Cameron

:00:07. > :00:10.at the Brussels summit as EU leaders dig in their heels.

:00:11. > :00:13.The Prime Minister had hoped to be back in Downing Street by now

:00:14. > :00:17.with a reform deal and a date for the referendum.

:00:18. > :00:20.Instead he'll be heading back into talks tonight -

:00:21. > :00:26.after a day of delays, no deals, and some early optimism.

:00:27. > :00:28.We have made some progress but there is still no deal.

:00:29. > :00:32.As I have said, I would only do a deal if we get what Britain needs,

:00:33. > :00:36.so we will get back in there and do some more work and I will do

:00:37. > :00:39.We'll have the very latest from Brussels and Westminster.

:00:40. > :00:42.Also tonight: One of the world's most famous authors -

:00:43. > :00:44.Harper Lee - who wrote To Kill A Mockingbird -

:00:45. > :00:51.American airstrikes are thought to have killed a senior figure

:00:52. > :00:55.in so-called Islamic state linked to the Tunisia terror attacks.

:00:56. > :00:58.Reduced to rubble in seconds after a suspected gas leak -

:01:14. > :01:20.And judges reject calls for a second trial for the man acquitted

:01:21. > :01:42.Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six.

:01:43. > :01:45.David Cameron had planned to be standing in Downing Street right now

:01:46. > :01:49.announcing the UK's first referendum on Europe in 40 years.

:01:50. > :01:57.Instead - after more than 24 hours of almost constant negotiations -

:01:58. > :02:00.he's heading into another round of talks with EU leaders in Brussels.

:02:01. > :02:03.The talks have been beset by delays with several EU nations unhappy

:02:04. > :02:07.over plans to curb migrant benefits and change EU regulations.

:02:08. > :02:17.Our Europe editor, Katya Adler has the latest from Brussels.

:02:18. > :02:24.Well, Sophie, after last night when the 20 EU leaders were first

:02:25. > :02:30.together to discuss the reforms, their meeting was feisty, the Prime

:02:31. > :02:34.Minister joked it was OK, he had enough shirts with him. But if all

:02:35. > :02:39.this had gone according to his plan, he would be holding a cabinet

:02:40. > :02:42.meeting around about now. His critics back home say these

:02:43. > :02:47.negotiations over what are quite narrow issues, the fact they are

:02:48. > :02:50.proving so tough shows David Cameron could not really fundamentally

:02:51. > :02:55.change Britain's relationship with the EU as he had initially promised.

:02:56. > :03:00.But Downing Street say progress has been made here. They want a deal so

:03:01. > :03:04.they can get on with the business of calling the referendum, but ours are

:03:05. > :03:07.ticking by. We were told after gruelling one-to-one meetings

:03:08. > :03:12.overnight, the leaders would reconvene today to an English

:03:13. > :03:16.breakfast. That has slipped to brunch, lunch and now we are told to

:03:17. > :03:18.expect an English dinner, the exact time to be concerned the macro

:03:19. > :03:21.confirmed. Out of the car and into the hornet's

:03:22. > :03:24.nest, that he stirred up yesterday. I was here until five o'clock this

:03:25. > :03:27.morning working through this and we've made some progress,

:03:28. > :03:29.but there's still no deal, and as I've said, I will only do

:03:30. > :03:33.a deal if we get what Britain needs, so we will get back

:03:34. > :03:36.in there, do some more work Instead of hailing a UK deal this

:03:37. > :03:43.morning, the Prime Minister found himself in a grinding

:03:44. > :03:50.new world of talks. He had told the wife and kids,

:03:51. > :03:57.he said, there could be some delay. A case of laughing on the outside,

:03:58. > :04:01.not so happy on the in. The Prime Minister had promised

:04:02. > :04:05.a battle for Britain at this summit, but the truth is after semi weeks

:04:06. > :04:08.and months of shuttle diplomacy, travelling, meeting,

:04:09. > :04:16.selling his reform deal to leaders across Europe,

:04:17. > :04:18.he did not expect such strong push back on such a number

:04:19. > :04:21.of issues from so many countries TRANSLATION: The proposal

:04:22. > :04:28.currently on the table does Digging his heels in,

:04:29. > :04:37.the Hungarian Prime Minister, along with other central

:04:38. > :04:39.and Eastern Europeans is toughing it out over cuts to EU

:04:40. > :04:43.migrant benefits. The French president has remained

:04:44. > :04:46.tight-lipped about protections for the UK from

:04:47. > :04:50.eurozone legislation. The Belgians and others opposed

:04:51. > :04:57.treaty change to write Britain out of the EU ideal of ever

:04:58. > :05:00.closer union, and then He hijacked this oh-so-public

:05:01. > :05:03.opportunity to do some Help me with migrant arrivals,

:05:04. > :05:07.he said, and I will not stand There is a will here to get

:05:08. > :05:13.the deal done so 28 other world leaders can get back

:05:14. > :05:18.to other pressing concerns. We keep hearing about big

:05:19. > :05:20.gaps between the country still on very big issues,

:05:21. > :05:22.they have been going on for months now, how can they

:05:23. > :05:28.suddenly be resolved? I do believe that each

:05:29. > :05:30.and every country pursues their national interest,

:05:31. > :05:34.this is very logical. But in the end, we'll

:05:35. > :05:37.have to understand that if Great Britain leaves the EU,

:05:38. > :05:42.we all get nothing. There is an element

:05:43. > :05:45.of smoke and mirrors here. All parties feel the need to be seen

:05:46. > :05:48.to stand their ground. That is why proceedings

:05:49. > :05:51.are taking so long. It is becoming clear that it is not

:05:52. > :06:08.only the British Prime Minister That said, there is a feeling here

:06:09. > :06:12.there is a deal in the making, and some good progress had been made.

:06:13. > :06:17.The hosts of this summit still call it make or break for the UK reforms

:06:18. > :06:24.here in this building. Of course, we do not know yet whether it will be a

:06:25. > :06:26.make or a break. Well, let's have a closer look at

:06:27. > :06:29.what's holding up a deal on reform. Our deputy political editor

:06:30. > :06:32.James Landale has been examining the major sticking

:06:33. > :06:36.points for EU leaders. From the moment it joined the

:06:37. > :06:41.European Community more than 40 years ago, Britain has had a

:06:42. > :06:46.troubled relationship with Brussels, with Prime Minister after Prime

:06:47. > :06:52.Minister ending up in conflict with their European counterparts. No, No.

:06:53. > :06:57.David Cameron hopes his reforms will reset the relationship for good,

:06:58. > :07:03.with what he calls a new settlement. The Prime Minister hopes to deter

:07:04. > :07:06.migrants coming here from the EU by limiting the benefits they can claim

:07:07. > :07:10.while working and those they sent home to their children. The deal

:07:11. > :07:15.will seem migrants having their tax credits phased over four years, and

:07:16. > :07:19.the child benefit reflecting the cost of living in their own country.

:07:20. > :07:26.Critics say it will not make a difference. Sadly, I think it is a

:07:27. > :07:29.pantomime. What is being offered is modest changes on benefit reform. It

:07:30. > :07:34.could be overruled by the European Court. What it is is a missed

:07:35. > :07:39.opportunity to go for a really different relationship. The Prime

:07:40. > :07:41.Minister is also looking to protect the City of London from financial

:07:42. > :07:44.decisions made by eurozone countries, as they begin to

:07:45. > :07:49.integrate their economies more closely. The deal does include new

:07:50. > :07:54.safeguards to assure that financial markets outside the euro zone are

:07:55. > :07:57.not treated unfairly, but there is uncertainty over who decides when

:07:58. > :08:04.the safeguards are triggered. Mr Cameron wants the House of Commons

:08:05. > :08:07.here to have greater powers to club together with other European

:08:08. > :08:12.parliaments and block EU laws. EU governments will have to think again

:08:13. > :08:16.if more than half of EU parliaments propose a new proposal. I hope the

:08:17. > :08:20.Prime Minister will bring back substantial reforms. The fact that

:08:21. > :08:23.these negotiations are taking time shows the issues are serious. I

:08:24. > :08:28.believe that Britain will be better off in a reformed EU but we will

:08:29. > :08:33.have to await the outcome. Above all, the Prime Minister wants these

:08:34. > :08:36.reforms to be written into the EU Treaty and made more legally

:08:37. > :08:42.binding. In particular, he wants his plan to opt Britain out of more

:08:43. > :08:46.political integration, to be written into EU law, something many

:08:47. > :08:50.countries say is unnecessary. Even though there is no deal tonight,

:08:51. > :08:55.campaigning has already begun for the referendum which will follow.

:08:56. > :08:58.Three years ago, David Cameron promised fundamental and

:08:59. > :09:04.far-reaching change. The question is now whether he has met that promise.

:09:05. > :09:06.Our political editor Laura Kuenssberg is in Downing

:09:07. > :09:10.You're there, Laura, but the Prime Minister is not -

:09:11. > :09:11.which demonstrates just how difficult these negotiations

:09:12. > :09:25.It almost feels like they should be tumbleweed barrelling along here.

:09:26. > :09:29.The Prime Minister should be standing exactly where I am to

:09:30. > :09:34.announce to the nation the date of the referendum expected at the end

:09:35. > :09:38.of June. Instead, he is stuck in Brussels. There is a sense that a

:09:39. > :09:45.deal is grinding towards a final conclusion. It is often the way of

:09:46. > :09:48.these things as one person described it in Brussels today, it starts

:09:49. > :09:51.slow, slow, slow but then there is a rush at the end to get everything

:09:52. > :09:56.done. There is so much riding on this, it is a tense night for Number

:09:57. > :10:01.Ten. We are hearing of something which could be a bigger problem for

:10:02. > :10:05.him closer to home? I have heard that the Justice Secretary Michael

:10:06. > :10:09.Gove, a close friend and ally of the Prime Minister has made his

:10:10. > :10:21.decision, and he intends to campaign to leave the European

:10:22. > :10:24.Union, taking the opposite position from the Prime Minister himself. I

:10:25. > :10:27.should say that is not being officially confirmed or officially

:10:28. > :10:29.denied by Number Ten or by Mr Gove himself. A spokesman says he still

:10:30. > :10:31.backs the Prime Minister's renegotiation and then he rules

:10:32. > :10:36.nothing out. It does appear tonight there is a coup for those who want

:10:37. > :10:42.to leave the EU. Michael Gove may not be a very well-known household

:10:43. > :10:48.name, but he is widely respected in conservative circles. A

:10:49. > :10:50.disappointment for David Cameron, a high-profile conservative who seems

:10:51. > :10:51.intent on taking the opposite view from him in the months ahead. Thank

:10:52. > :10:56.you. A senior figure of so-called Islamic

:10:57. > :10:59.State - thought to be linked to last year's attacks on tourists in

:11:00. > :11:02.Tunisia - is believed to have been killed by American airstrikes

:11:03. > :11:04.in neighbouring Libya. An IS training camp in Sabratha,

:11:05. > :11:07.around 70km west of Tripoli was hit. US officials said it was "likely"

:11:08. > :11:10.that the strikes had killed the senior Tunisian extremist linked

:11:11. > :11:12.to the beach attack Here's our security correspondent

:11:13. > :11:26.Frank Gardner reports. Flattened by a US air strike early

:11:27. > :11:30.this morning. This is all that remains of what Washington said was

:11:31. > :11:38.an Islamic State training camp in Libya. US Air Force warplanes

:11:39. > :11:42.carried out the raid, flying from RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk. Britain's

:11:43. > :11:50.Defence Secretary personally authorised America to use the base.

:11:51. > :11:56.Their main target was-year-old Tunisian jihadist. He has been

:11:57. > :12:03.linked to two terror attacks including one in Sousse which killed

:12:04. > :12:11.30 tourists. We took this action against Sabir after hearing that he

:12:12. > :12:15.and others were planning external attacks. This morning's Libby attack

:12:16. > :12:24.was the most significant action there. It took place here at

:12:25. > :12:28.Sabratha in a camp to the west of the country. A lot of most of those

:12:29. > :12:35.killed were North Africa and recruits to IS. One of those is said

:12:36. > :12:44.to have played a major role in the terror attacks in Tunis and Sousse.

:12:45. > :12:49.Yet IS's stronghold is concentrated around Sirte and that is unlikely to

:12:50. > :12:57.be affected. Recruits continue to come in from North Africa and the

:12:58. > :13:01.Middle East. It will take rebuilding the state, strengthening the

:13:02. > :13:06.authorities and making sure that training camps like this cannot

:13:07. > :13:11.exist. But this is the reality in much of Libya now. A country awash

:13:12. > :13:17.with arms, competing militias, no rule of law and no functioning

:13:18. > :13:20.central government. Libya is fast emerging as Islamic State's second

:13:21. > :13:23.base after Syria. Harper Lee - the author

:13:24. > :13:25.of To Kill A Mockingbird - The book was published in 1960

:13:26. > :13:30.and became one of the enduring Then last summer, the literary world

:13:31. > :13:34.was taken by surprise when Harper Lee's second

:13:35. > :13:35.novel was published - Our arts correspondent, David

:13:36. > :13:51.Sillito looks back at her life. To Kill A Mockingbird was not just a

:13:52. > :13:57.bestseller, it is a book which changes people. On any list of best

:13:58. > :14:02.loved authors, you almost always see the name Harper Lee.

:14:03. > :14:06.She did something that in our society is unspeakable, she kissed a

:14:07. > :14:11.black man. The character of Atticus Finch was

:14:12. > :14:16.the moral heart of the story of racist, injustice and childhood, and

:14:17. > :14:22.bore many similarities with her own father. Remember, it is a sin To

:14:23. > :14:27.Kill A Mockingbird. And like the characters scout the young Harper

:14:28. > :14:32.Lee was also a tomboy. She studied law but wanted to write. Her

:14:33. > :14:39.inspiration was the turbulence fight for civil rights. A black man was

:14:40. > :14:45.murdered after being accused of being rude to a white woman. His

:14:46. > :14:49.killers went free. The echoes of it all radiate through To Kill A

:14:50. > :14:55.Mockingbird, a book described by Oprah Winfrey as the nation's novel.

:14:56. > :15:02.50 years on, she was still being garlanded with awards. I have my

:15:03. > :15:08.work cut out for me for the next 15 years. But the writing, she had as

:15:09. > :15:14.you can see from this letter, planned a whole series of novels but

:15:15. > :15:19.her friend said it was hard to deal with the reaction to Mockingbird. I

:15:20. > :15:24.think when it really began to snowball, and it snowballed to the

:15:25. > :15:37.top of the mountain, I wonder if it sneaked up on her after a while,

:15:38. > :15:43.whether, whether it overwhelmed her? So the arrival of a second book more

:15:44. > :15:47.than 50 years later was more than unexpected. The manuscript for Go

:15:48. > :15:52.Set A Watchman had been locked away for 50 years. It had been written

:15:53. > :15:57.before To Kill A Mockingbird. It was an instant bestseller but it was not

:15:58. > :16:10.To Kill A Mockingbird. A million copies a year are sold, generation

:16:11. > :16:13.after generation moved by Harper Lee story of justice, decency and

:16:14. > :16:22.standing up for what is right. She really did not need to write another

:16:23. > :16:24.word. Certain EU leaders dig in their heels over the Prime

:16:25. > :16:27.Minister's demands for reform. And still to come: found in the Fens

:16:28. > :16:31.- the bronze age wheel that could have been part

:16:32. > :16:40.of a chariot 3,000 years ago. How welfare changes could mean some

:16:41. > :16:47.disabled people losing their motor ability cars. And Mo Farah is in

:16:48. > :16:49.Glasgow for the first big athletics meeting of the year and he talks

:16:50. > :16:54.about the sport's drugs cheats. All this week, the BBC has been

:18:16. > :18:19.eye contact with him or have a conversation -

:18:20. > :18:22.he just seemed like a lost soul. It was not as though

:21:54. > :22:00.Up close you get a sense of the power of the blast,

:22:01. > :22:03.there is little of this house left that is recognisable.

:22:04. > :22:06.And you get a sense of the extent of the damage caused

:22:07. > :22:14.In amongst all the rubble, the signs of a home and life swept

:22:15. > :22:20.The 63-year-old man who lived here was found dead and has been

:22:21. > :22:25.We think it was a gas explosion and everything points to that,

:22:26. > :22:27.however, it is going to take some time and some investigation

:22:28. > :22:32.to actually confirm that that's the case.

:22:33. > :22:34.Gas and electric supplies are being reconnected but some

:22:35. > :22:36.of the houses may be damaged beyond repair.

:22:37. > :22:38.This was a sudden and devastating explosion which tore right

:22:39. > :22:40.through the normal morning routine of this quiet close,

:22:41. > :22:45.and many here are still reeling from its impact.

:22:46. > :22:51.A brief look at some of the day's other news stories...

:22:52. > :22:55.The family of a man shot dead in Dublin have pleaded for an end

:22:56. > :23:05.There was a heavy police presence for the funeral of Eddie Hutch Sr

:23:06. > :23:08.who was killed ealier this month in what was thought to be a reprisal

:23:09. > :23:12.for a fatal shooting at a boxing match weigh-in.

:23:13. > :23:15.Dozens of cars from the 1970s have been found 65 foot underground

:23:16. > :23:19.Around 100 cars were found in the mine which was apparently

:23:20. > :23:25.Engineers carrying out repair work on the Forth Road Bridge have said

:23:26. > :23:28.it will reopen fully to all traffic at 11 o'clock on Saturday night.

:23:29. > :23:31.It was closed in early December after the discovery of a crack

:23:32. > :23:33.Archaeologists have found what they think is the

:23:34. > :23:36.UK's largest and oldest wooden wheel from the Bronze Age.

:23:37. > :23:38.It's around 3,000 years old and was unearthed

:23:39. > :23:46.Our correspondent Jo Black has been to see it.

:23:47. > :23:49.To the untrained eye it looks like a battered old wheel

:23:50. > :23:51.but its discovery offers an insight into the lives

:23:52. > :23:59.Although the Bronze Age inhabitants lived in stilted wooden roundhouses

:24:00. > :24:01.over an ancient waterway, this wheel, thought to be

:24:02. > :24:04.from a cart, shows they were also exploiting dry land,

:24:05. > :24:11.The wetland community was built on stilts, they were living

:24:12. > :24:19.they were living above a river in a marshland.

:24:20. > :24:22.And yet there is a wheel that takes you on dry land,

:24:23. > :24:25.so there is a real sense that although they are living out

:24:26. > :24:27.on the water they have a strong link to the land.

:24:28. > :24:30.The team have been on the site for several months but only now

:24:31. > :24:34.as they dig deeper, more bronze age fenland secrets are coming to light.

:24:35. > :24:36.What these artefacts reveal is just how complex and sophisticated life

:24:37. > :24:39.Bowls, glass beads, textiles and animal

:24:40. > :24:44.But the mystery of the fire that destroyed the settlement remains

:24:45. > :24:54.This is the fire investigator who will try to piece together

:24:55. > :24:57.Actually having this material preserved is absolutely incredible.

:24:58. > :24:59.Hopefully it will tell us something about the structure,

:25:00. > :25:03.It might say something about how the fire was started.

:25:04. > :25:06.The dig team says that this site holds many more secrets.

:25:07. > :25:09.It is perhaps the best glimpse yet into a long lost world.

:25:10. > :25:22.Thank you. Friday night is looking pretty damp and the weekend is not

:25:23. > :25:27.that exhilarating either. We have rain on the way but not for

:25:28. > :25:34.everybody. A few parts will see some rain and it will be windy as well.

:25:35. > :25:36.Let's look at the big picture. A trailing weather front from the

:25:37. > :25:41.Atlantic slides across the UK through the course of the weekend.

:25:42. > :25:46.In one or two places we could see rain all through the course of the

:25:47. > :25:52.weekend. This is what it looks like tonight. Spots of rain here and

:25:53. > :25:56.there, breezy around the South. Across Scotland we have wintry

:25:57. > :26:00.showers into the early hours of Saturday morning and the risk of ice

:26:01. > :26:05.here and there. Temperatures dropping close to freezing. Let's

:26:06. > :26:10.look at the big picture across the Atlantic again. This is the weather

:26:11. > :26:14.front I mention trailing out there, sliding across the UK and marking

:26:15. > :26:21.cold air to the north and milder air to the south. It is right across the

:26:22. > :26:25.central parts of the country. To the south of the weather front is where

:26:26. > :26:31.we have drizzly mild conditions but to the north it is colder air with

:26:32. > :26:35.wintry showers on the weather map. A big temperature contrast on

:26:36. > :26:43.Saturday, as much as 10 degrees, four or five in the north and 13 in

:26:44. > :26:47.the South. Much of the rain will fall across Wales and perhaps the

:26:48. > :26:54.North of England is this ribbon of weather front comes across from the

:26:55. > :26:56.Atlantic. By Sunday in the south we could see temperatures around 14

:26:57. > :27:05.degrees in the north and it will still be shivering at 5 degrees.

:27:06. > :27:12.Let's go back to the EU summit where David Cameron is trying to get a

:27:13. > :27:17.deal. It is proving difficult, will it be another long night of talks?

:27:18. > :27:21.There is a sense of occasion and tension and anticipation. David

:27:22. > :27:25.Cameron says he has time, although of course in an ideal world what he

:27:26. > :27:29.wanted by this time on Friday evening was a deal in his hand and

:27:30. > :27:35.his cabinet around the table in London. Those EU leaders opposing

:27:36. > :27:38.his reforms are sticking to their position and they show no indication

:27:39. > :27:44.they will just give way any time soon. Don't forget the all-important

:27:45. > :27:48.meeting where 28 of them get together is now nine hours overdue.

:27:49. > :27:54.The French president says he will not give in to blackmail and the

:27:55. > :27:56.Czech president says they are moving towards a solution and that is all

:27:57. > :27:57.David Cameron
