:00:23. > :00:31.Former owner Sir Philip Green offers tens of millions to plug

:00:32. > :00:36.the company's pensions, but could be asked for even more.

:01:03. > :01:05.say they're ready to And all sound, but no action -

:01:06. > :01:13.the high rise blocks that left the demolition teams with red

:01:14. > :01:17.faces. Coming up in the sport on BBC News:

:01:18. > :01:20.The race for the title in the Premier League continues,

:01:21. > :01:24.as Tottenham face West Brom looking for a win to keep

:01:25. > :01:27.the pressure on table Good evening, and welcome

:01:28. > :01:52.the BBC News at 6. After 88 years on the high

:01:53. > :01:54.street, the BHS department store chain has finally

:01:55. > :01:59.run up the white flag. With debts of more than ?1 billion

:02:00. > :02:02.and a rescue plan in ruins, the current owners -

:02:03. > :02:04.who bought the stores from the billionaire

:02:05. > :02:06.Philip Green last year - The company's 164 stores

:02:07. > :02:11.will continue to trade for now, but if a new buyer cannot be found,

:02:12. > :02:14.11,000 jobs will go. Our Business Correspondent Emma

:02:15. > :02:17.Simpson takes a look at what's gone As the doors open this morning,

:02:18. > :02:24.BHS workers waiting for news, By lunchtime this household name

:02:25. > :02:30.had collapsed. BHS has been on our high streets

:02:31. > :02:45.for nearly 90 years, generations have bought

:02:46. > :02:47.its homewares and clothes as it changed through the decades,

:02:48. > :02:50.but will it be missed? I wouldn't normally come here,

:02:51. > :02:53.because it's not the sort of clothes But I'm just going to see

:02:54. > :02:57.if there is anything. The variety in John Lewis

:02:58. > :02:59.is a lot more. Back in 2000 it was bought

:03:00. > :03:04.by Sir Philip Green, A disillusioned workforce,

:03:05. > :03:13.demoralised people, a business, in all honesty, that would have gone

:03:14. > :03:16.broke if I had not bought it. BHS helped Sir Philip

:03:17. > :03:20.build his retail empire A billionaire who mingles

:03:21. > :03:28.with celebs and famous That helped drive sales

:03:29. > :03:35.at his new venture, Topshop. But BHS failed to keep up

:03:36. > :03:39.with the competition, and after six years of losses,

:03:40. > :03:45.he sold it last year for ?1. The new owners were a little-known

:03:46. > :03:47.group of financial investors, I understand they earned at least

:03:48. > :04:03.?8 million from BHS, This goes back a very long way,

:04:04. > :04:05.over the past ten years or so, where BHS has been

:04:06. > :04:08.invested in as a business. It looks dated, the range looks

:04:09. > :04:11.tired, and of course, people haven't gone to the shop

:04:12. > :04:14.and that has pushed the economic This is the biggest failure

:04:15. > :04:18.on our high streets since the collapse of

:04:19. > :04:22.Woolworths eight years ago. It's not just the thousands of jobs

:04:23. > :04:26.at risk, BHS left debts of up to ?1.3 billion,

:04:27. > :04:29.including a pension And its pension schemes have

:04:30. > :04:44.to be rescued. His pension is safe,

:04:45. > :04:46.but will be less than he was expecting, and says Sir Philip Green

:04:47. > :04:49.has questions to answer. He could have quite easily afforded

:04:50. > :04:54.to pay that pension scheme up front. He sold it for ?1, thinking

:04:55. > :05:00.it was really clever to do so. Sir Philip has offered to pay part

:05:01. > :05:06.of the shortfall, Tonight the pension

:05:07. > :05:13.regulator is investigating. As for the business,

:05:14. > :05:16.he sold it nice and tidy, Things are far from tidy now

:05:17. > :05:20.though, as the race begins Our Business Editor Simon Jack

:05:21. > :05:40.is outside a BHS store Is this the end of the line, do you

:05:41. > :05:44.think, for BHS? I think in its current form the answer is probably

:05:45. > :05:48.yes. This is a brand that generates more affection than it does in

:05:49. > :05:52.trade. Any potential buyer would have to work out if there is enough

:05:53. > :05:58.mileage in that brand to be worth investing in it. In its current form

:05:59. > :06:03.it is unlikely. As we are seen with previous high street busts, like

:06:04. > :06:06.Woolworths, a similar brand held in affection not generating enough

:06:07. > :06:11.sales, it got split up piecemeal. This one has been sold for ?50

:06:12. > :06:14.million. I think in its current format it is unlikely to survive.

:06:15. > :06:19.The Business Minister has been on her feet in the Commons in the last

:06:20. > :06:24.few moments saying, remember, it does continue to trade. She also

:06:25. > :06:29.said they stand by with rapid reaction response in job centres,

:06:30. > :06:31.which sends a more gloomy message to employees today. OK Simon, thank you

:06:32. > :06:33.very much. In just over twelve hours' times

:06:34. > :06:35.junior doctors in England For the first time in the history

:06:36. > :06:40.of the NHS they will not cover emergency services, such as A

:06:41. > :06:42.departments and intensive care. Last minute pleas for the doctors

:06:43. > :06:45.and the Government to get around a table again have failed -

:06:46. > :06:58.as our health editor They have already been strikes

:06:59. > :07:01.affecting routine care in this bitter and long-running dispute.

:07:02. > :07:06.Doctors walked out over pay and conditions back in the 1970s, but

:07:07. > :07:11.the escalated action in England over the next two days is unprecedented

:07:12. > :07:14.in the NHS. Junior doctors protesting at the Department of

:07:15. > :07:19.Health today say the government was wrong to end talks and impose a new

:07:20. > :07:23.contract on them. I asked how they could justify the planned full-scale

:07:24. > :07:26.walk-out. Of course I don't want to be on strike tomorrow, of course I

:07:27. > :07:31.want to be looking after my patients. But for me, the greater

:07:32. > :07:36.harm that will occur to patients in the future of this contract being

:07:37. > :07:40.proposed parsley outstrips the risks of tomorrow. To help secretary says

:07:41. > :07:44.the doctor 's union wouldn't negotiate so he had to press on with

:07:45. > :07:49.the contract and this afternoon he set out his case in the Commons. Mr

:07:50. > :07:54.Speaker, the NHS is busting a gut to keep the public say. But we should

:07:55. > :07:59.not lose sight of the underlying reason for this dispute, namely this

:08:00. > :08:04.government's determination to be the first country in the world to

:08:05. > :08:06.operate and offer a proper patient focused seven-day health care

:08:07. > :08:11.service. Labour said the way ministers had handled this dispute

:08:12. > :08:16.was the equivalent of pouring oil on a blazing fire. In previous strikes

:08:17. > :08:20.routine operations and appointments were affected, but this time junior

:08:21. > :08:26.doctors will also strike in areas like accident and emergency units,

:08:27. > :08:31.maternity services, intensive care units and mental health crisis care.

:08:32. > :08:33.So all will stay open during the action. Once again, routine work has

:08:34. > :08:38.been postponed. Kevin has action. Once again, routine work has

:08:39. > :08:41.injury but twice appointments with consultants have been put off

:08:42. > :08:46.because of junior doctors strikes. He is not against their action but

:08:47. > :08:50.he is frustrated. It is not knowing when it's going to be done. I just

:08:51. > :08:54.want to know. The main thing is, how long am I going to be off work

:08:55. > :08:58.question mark that is the main thing. NHS and hospital management

:08:59. > :09:02.are stressing essential care will be provided tomorrow and Wednesday by

:09:03. > :09:06.senior doctors and nursing staff to stop anyone considering going to A

:09:07. > :09:12.is being asked to think twice if they don't need urgent attention. At

:09:13. > :09:18.hospitals like this one, medical chiefs are reviewing plans to cover

:09:19. > :09:22.gaps in AMD. How our preparations for industrial action going? Very

:09:23. > :09:27.well, we have been through all the rotors and we have names in every

:09:28. > :09:32.box. The plans may be in place. Whether they hold up under pressure

:09:33. > :09:38.during the strikes is another matter. This is uncharted territory

:09:39. > :09:43.for the NHS. Theresa May has intervened for the first time in the

:09:44. > :09:46.EU referendum campaign. She made clear her commitment to staying in

:09:47. > :09:55.the European Union but said Britain should leave your's leading human

:09:56. > :09:59.rights body. The leave campaign says it faces are free from if it stays

:10:00. > :10:03.in the EU. Here is our political editor Laura Kuenssberg. As many

:10:04. > :10:07.people as live in Middlesbrough came to live in the UK from other EU

:10:08. > :10:11.countries last year. The Home Secretary believes that is just too

:10:12. > :10:16.many, but it is not enough to make her want to leave the European

:10:17. > :10:19.Union. There are certainly problems caused by EU membership, but there

:10:20. > :10:23.are advantages as well. Our decision must come down to whether, after

:10:24. > :10:27.serious thought about the pros and cons, we believe there is more in

:10:28. > :10:32.the credit column than the debit column for remaining on the inside.

:10:33. > :10:38.She is an David Cameron's side in the big argument over stay or go,

:10:39. > :10:41.but the speech was full of subtle swipes, although the government is

:10:42. > :10:46.meant to have a target on immigration, listen carefully.

:10:47. > :10:50.Do you concede as long as we are in we cannot put a limit on the overall

:10:51. > :10:55.numbers of people coming here from the European Union, for good or ill?

:10:56. > :10:59.There is only one area in which we have a numerical limit on movement

:11:00. > :11:04.of people into the United Kingdom. That is the workers coming from

:11:05. > :11:09.outside the European Union. So no, you cannot limit the numbers. The

:11:10. > :11:14.Home Secretary pitched herself as reluctant Remain, challenging David

:11:15. > :11:19.Cameron new countries like Turkey joining the European Union. Calling

:11:20. > :11:23.for us to quit the European Convention on human rights, a treaty

:11:24. > :11:27.that is separate to the EU. If we want to reform human rights laws in

:11:28. > :11:31.this country it is not the EU we should leave, but the EC HR and the

:11:32. > :11:35.jurisdiction of its core. The Home Secretary was borrowing a week where

:11:36. > :11:40.the Prime Minister and Remain side felt they were in control, after the

:11:41. > :11:45.President's hefty swing of a nine iron, but her support might raise as

:11:46. > :11:49.many questions as it answers. The Home Secretary wants you to vote to

:11:50. > :11:53.stay in the European Union, but it seems there are almost three

:11:54. > :11:58.positions on this at the top of the Tory party now. Remain, which is

:11:59. > :12:02.what David Cameron is arguing. Leave, being pushed by people like

:12:03. > :12:08.Boris Johnson, and a Home Secretary's apparent position, stay

:12:09. > :12:12.through gritted teeth. Her arguments are enough to persuade me to vote

:12:13. > :12:16.leaves and most people to Vote Leave because you can only control those

:12:17. > :12:20.area she spoke off by leaving the European Union. Isn't the fact

:12:21. > :12:23.you're losing the argument here and Theresa May's speech gives you

:12:24. > :12:27.something to focus on? I think this is only begun. I think she would

:12:28. > :12:30.have expected the government has everything at their power, they have

:12:31. > :12:33.all the money, the civil servants, they have taken the remaining camp

:12:34. > :12:42.and stuck it in Downing Street summer. They have everything in

:12:43. > :12:45.their favour at this stage of the contest. That is how the government

:12:46. > :12:47.will approach to this campaign and they hang on for fear of something

:12:48. > :12:50.worse. Until now the outcome pain were accused of struggling to

:12:51. > :12:53.contain differences were accused of struggling to

:12:54. > :12:57.but there may be cracks on the other side as well. In the heat of

:12:58. > :13:02.political campaigns, any thing can happen.

:13:03. > :13:07.So Britain's ability to control immigration was one of the big

:13:08. > :13:13.themes today. Daniel Stanford is here with me. Let's get this right,

:13:14. > :13:17.what is the position now, what are the numbers? There is no doubt the

:13:18. > :13:22.European union Freedom of movement rules have made a significant

:13:23. > :13:27.contribution to those coming to live in the UK. Not quite a big

:13:28. > :13:32.proportion as you might expect. If you take British citizens out of the

:13:33. > :13:35.equation the net migration to the UK with 363,000 in the year to

:13:36. > :13:43.September. That was the number arriving minus the number leaving.

:13:44. > :13:47.The Remain and Leave agree we can do nothing to stop them coming here. We

:13:48. > :13:52.can still check on people arriving and under EU rules we have the power

:13:53. > :13:56.to expel people on security grounds, for example. Let's look at the EU

:13:57. > :14:01.migration. What would the likely difference be between a vote to

:14:02. > :14:07.remain and a vote to leave? If the UK left the EU in theory migration

:14:08. > :14:09.from the European Union could be completely stopped. However,

:14:10. > :14:13.presumably at the moment of leaving we would want to do a trade deal

:14:14. > :14:17.with the EU. When Switzerland did a trader with the EU they had to

:14:18. > :14:20.accept some of the EU freedom of movement rules. Now they have a much

:14:21. > :14:25.higher proportion of EU citizens living in Switzerland and we do of

:14:26. > :14:30.non-British citizens. They are trying to get out of that agreement

:14:31. > :14:31.at the moment but to do that they might have to abandon their trade

:14:32. > :14:38.deal. And would we say no EU citizens, no

:14:39. > :14:42.German doctors, Lithuanian farm workers at all can come to the UK?

:14:43. > :14:45.Presumably not. If the economy stayed strong even if we left the EU

:14:46. > :14:52.some EU citizens would still be coming to the UK. On the other hand,

:14:53. > :14:55.if we remain in the EU, the freedom of movement rules will almost

:14:56. > :14:59.certainly stay, and with other countries like Turkey and Albania

:15:00. > :15:02.potentially joining the EU further down the line, the pool of people

:15:03. > :15:10.who might want to come here could go up, unless we change the rules about

:15:11. > :15:12.new people coming. Thank you. It is 6:15pm.

:15:13. > :15:15.British Home Stores goes into administration,

:15:16. > :15:18.putting 11,000 thousand jobs at risk.

:15:19. > :15:31.Should all schools in England be turned into academies ?

:15:32. > :15:38.And in the sport, the former number one Judd Trump is the last name to

:15:39. > :15:41.be knocked out of the Snooker championship being beaten 13-10 by

:15:42. > :15:56.China's Ding. Whoever wins will be one of the most

:15:57. > :16:00.powerful politicians in Britain and the decision will be made, the

:16:01. > :16:04.theft. The race to replace Boris Johnson as Mayor of London is in its

:16:05. > :16:10.final fortnight, but the campaign has been dogged by personal attacks

:16:11. > :16:12.and accusations of racism. Our deputy political

:16:13. > :16:20.Trouble is, it's the other guy who needs the attention.

:16:21. > :16:22.Zac Goldsmith is out to follow Boris Johnson as London mayor.

:16:23. > :16:27.Accusations of playing the race card always do.

:16:28. > :16:29.Are you comfortable with supporting a campaign which has been

:16:30. > :16:35.accused now of mudslinging and even of racism?

:16:36. > :16:41.All political campaigns have to ask tough questions.

:16:42. > :16:43.Getting your hands dirty in a campaign is one thing.

:16:44. > :16:51.Cultivating the idea your main opponent is unfit for office

:16:52. > :16:57.No one to my knowledge, no one serious, has accused my

:16:58. > :17:03.No one can pretend it is not legitimate to ask that someone

:17:04. > :17:13.who wants to be Mayor of London, with a big security remit,

:17:14. > :17:16.no one can pretend it is not legitimate to ask about that

:17:17. > :17:19.person's links to people who wish to do this city harm.

:17:20. > :17:21.My campaign, my focus, has to be about my action

:17:22. > :17:24.About delivering for London by working with government,

:17:25. > :17:27.keeping council tax low, it is a pledge I have made,

:17:28. > :17:30.keeping London safe, making London the greenest

:17:31. > :17:32.Somehow at home in any crowd, meet Sadiq Khan.

:17:33. > :17:34.He played a part as Minister with Gordon Brown.

:17:35. > :17:49.Back on his old estate, he says he will fix the housing

:17:50. > :17:53.Unite communities in a city where diversity is one reason

:17:54. > :17:59.Even if he keeps distance from Labour. I'm asking Londoners to

:18:00. > :18:05.trust my experience and my vision to be a mayor for all Londoners. On the

:18:06. > :18:09.question of religious extremism as has been discussed, what do you say

:18:10. > :18:14.to that? Could you have done more to demonstrate your own moderate

:18:15. > :18:18.approach? I voted for same-sex marriage and there was a fatwa put

:18:19. > :18:22.out against me and I was discussing police protection. I'm the candidate

:18:23. > :18:26.with a plan and a British Muslim who wants to tackle radicalisation.

:18:27. > :18:30.There is nothing new about an election campaign turning nastier

:18:31. > :18:34.and this one could be a political game changer. Jeremy Corbyn believes

:18:35. > :18:38.a big win in London could help him see off mutinous MPs, and there are

:18:39. > :18:45.lots of them, who want to show that Labour can't win with him in charge.

:18:46. > :18:49.Some conservatives believe David Cameron wouldn't break his heart if

:18:50. > :18:52.he won either, he believes rightly or wrongly that they can beat Labour

:18:53. > :18:56.in their sleep with Jeremy Corbyn in charge. The greens are enjoying the

:18:57. > :19:03.campaign more than the likely result. Which number will it be

:19:04. > :19:08.next? Like the Liberal Democrats, kept going by memories of better

:19:09. > :19:13.days and future hopes. And Ukip? If only they could tap into Eurosceptic

:19:14. > :19:19.feeling as they once did. London is choosing a new face and the odds say

:19:20. > :19:25.it is Sadiq Khan or Goldsmith, who won't give up even if Boris Johnson

:19:26. > :19:26.is a hard act to follow. Here is a list of all of the candidates

:19:27. > :19:48.standing. On the 5th of May. After a case lasting two years,

:19:49. > :19:51.the jury at the Hillsborough Inquests has reached a decision

:19:52. > :19:54.on whether the 96 Liverpool fans Their conclusions will be

:19:55. > :19:57.formally returned tomorrow. Let's get more now from our

:19:58. > :20:03.correspondent at the We know this has been tough for the

:20:04. > :20:05.juror 's. They have been here for more than two years, listening to

:20:06. > :20:08.more than 600 witnesses, thousands of documents and hours of footage

:20:09. > :20:12.and their task has been to work through all of that to provide

:20:13. > :20:16.answers to a 14 section questionnaire. We know they have

:20:17. > :20:20.made unanimous decisions on 13 of the questions that deal with topics

:20:21. > :20:24.including the actions of South Yorkshire Police and Ambulance

:20:25. > :20:28.Service. They were stuck on the central issue of whether the 96

:20:29. > :20:32.people who died were unlawfully killed. This morning they were told

:20:33. > :20:35.they could come back with a majority decision, we know they have done

:20:36. > :20:41.that but we haven't got their answer yet. That will be tomorrow. The

:20:42. > :20:45.court is breaking until tomorrow to give the families of those who died

:20:46. > :20:49.every chance possible to get here for the big day and we expect so

:20:50. > :20:52.many people to be here at the court in Warrington that they will have

:20:53. > :20:58.two relay proceedings to other buildings. This moment coming 27

:20:59. > :21:01.years after Britain's worst stadium disaster and right at the end of

:21:02. > :21:06.what is now Britain's longest ever running inquest. Thank you.

:21:07. > :21:09.Tributes have been paid to an army officer who died while running

:21:33. > :21:37.which David was fundraising for when he died.

:21:38. > :21:40.Should all schools in England be forced to become academies?

:21:41. > :21:44.That's what Nicky Morgan, the Education Secretary thinks.

:21:45. > :21:48.But even among Tory councils there are worries about the plan

:21:49. > :21:50.which would see them lose control of well-run schools

:21:51. > :21:55.Now the government has confirmed its looking at ways

:21:56. > :21:58.of allowing councils themselves to set up chains of academy schools.

:21:59. > :22:03.Our Education Editor Branwen Jeffreys has more.

:22:04. > :22:11.Who's making it hard for coach Martin to follow them? Lots are --

:22:12. > :22:14.lots of people are making it harder for the government so will it have

:22:15. > :22:19.Duport 's plans to make all schools academies? Not if it can help it.

:22:20. > :22:23.But they might have the budget on the details. Not one school in this

:22:24. > :22:27.borough has chosen to become an academy, so what if the council

:22:28. > :22:32.itself set up some kind of academy trust? I think we may just have

:22:33. > :22:36.reinvented the wheel. I'm not sure it going to make a difference to

:22:37. > :22:41.children and standards. I think the more pressing issue that will do

:22:42. > :22:44.that is focusing on teacher recruitment and retention and making

:22:45. > :22:52.sure children have great teachers who are led by great headteachers.

:22:53. > :22:56.There are 15,000 schools like this in England, in these plans all would

:22:57. > :23:01.be forced to become academies. Where will all of the new bosses come

:23:02. > :23:08.from? It looks like some may be from councils. There are intense

:23:09. > :23:14.behind-the-scenes discussions going on about how local councils could

:23:15. > :23:18.set up a multi-academy trust in the area to provide support and oversee

:23:19. > :23:21.some schools if they chose to join. But there are still plenty of tough

:23:22. > :23:27.questions for Education Secretary Nicky Morgan about how exactly all

:23:28. > :23:35.of this might work. Is it still her intention to ask Parliament for

:23:36. > :23:39.these new powers? Yes or no? I have been very clear that I will not be

:23:40. > :23:43.the Secretary of State that leaves the job of making our school system

:23:44. > :23:50.as strong as possible for the benefit of all pupils under.

:23:59. > :24:03.Education Secretary to ask for reassurance. We don't feel the

:24:04. > :24:07.residence will want this and we know that our small schools, as I say, if

:24:08. > :24:11.they wanted to be an academy they would have done it already. More

:24:12. > :24:17.obstacles lie ahead for these school plans. Ministers might have to give

:24:18. > :24:23.way on details, on how exactly councils get involved. And where the

:24:24. > :24:25.buck stops for the quality of England's schools.

:24:26. > :24:27.The Scottish novelist and poet Nan Shepherd will feature

:25:14. > :25:18.buildings left and right of your picture had been standing since the

:25:19. > :25:21.1960s. Nearby houses were evacuated and residents placed well away from

:25:22. > :25:29.the danger zone. Then this. EXPLOSIONS

:25:30. > :25:37.The moment both buildings should have come down. Loads of noise but

:25:38. > :25:43.no demolition. Is it safe, yes or no?! Onlookers were confused and the

:25:44. > :25:50.demolition team embarrassed. Then two hours later as engineered --

:25:51. > :25:54.engineers tried to find out what went wrong one of the blocks

:25:55. > :26:05.suddenly collapsed. The public scattered for safety. It came down

:26:06. > :26:14.on its own! This afternoon a robot was sent in to nudge the second

:26:15. > :26:21.block down. But guess what? It still standing. Time for a look at the

:26:22. > :26:27.weather now. It seems as though we have had all four seasons in one day

:26:28. > :26:30.today? Pretty much right. That is illustrated nicely by the following

:26:31. > :26:39.pictures. Maybe a hint of summer towards the Isles of Scilly. Love --

:26:40. > :26:45.lovely sunshine, look at those daffodils in the wind and yes, that

:26:46. > :26:48.is falling snow. I pressure in the North Atlantic and in between these

:26:49. > :26:53.brands we have a cold northerly wind as Arctic air pushes across the UK

:26:54. > :26:58.and you can see the speckles of cloud and showers with sunshine in

:26:59. > :27:04.between. Also moving quite quickly. It has been blowing a gale today in

:27:05. > :27:07.northern Scotland. Gusts of up to 60 mph bringing wintry showers along

:27:08. > :27:10.the eastern coasts but most wintry weather will be in the Highlands and

:27:11. > :27:15.maybe a dusting across western areas. Cold night across the board

:27:16. > :27:20.with frost for many and also icy patches in Scotland in particular.

:27:21. > :27:23.with frost for many and also icy Into the morning still snow showers

:27:24. > :27:26.falling. Probably dry, bright and cold in

:27:28. > :27:32.for the Scattered showers and so shine but

:27:33. > :27:38.England it will be a cold morning with cold wind. In Wales and the

:27:39. > :27:41.south-west, any snow should not last long, disappearing quickly, sunshine

:27:42. > :27:46.in the Midlands and wintry weather in East Anglia. Generally speaking a

:27:47. > :27:49.day of sunny spells and showers and when they come along through the

:27:50. > :27:53.afternoon they could be heavy with hail and thunder. Notice there is

:27:54. > :28:01.still wintry weather over the higher ground in Scotland. Thermometers may

:28:02. > :28:08.be 7-11, but it will feel only one or 2 degrees above freezing when you

:28:09. > :28:11.factor in the wind. Not too bad in any sunshine but showers could be

:28:12. > :28:18.quite wintry. Beware of frosty nights. Thank you very much. The
