:00:00. > :00:07.The new Prime Minister completes her first cabinet -

:00:08. > :00:09.with some surprises, new departments and jobs for those

:00:10. > :00:22.Among some unexpected appointments, there have been more

:00:23. > :00:28.Out goes former leadership rival Michael Gove,

:00:29. > :00:33.and Culture Secretary John Whittingdale.

:00:34. > :00:35.But in comes leadership challenger Andrea Leadsom

:00:36. > :00:40.Justine Greening as Education Secretary

:00:41. > :00:44.and Liz Truss at the Department of Justice.

:00:45. > :00:46.The new Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson brushes off some

:00:47. > :00:48.international criticism of his appointment,

:00:49. > :00:52.after his French counterpart called him a liar.

:00:53. > :00:54.It is inevitable that there is a certain amount of plaster

:00:55. > :00:57.coming off the ceiling in the chancelleries of Europe,

:00:58. > :00:59.it wasn't the result they were expecting and clearly

:01:00. > :01:08.And the new Chancellor pledges to restore confidence in the

:01:09. > :01:12.UK economy as the Bank of England defies expectations

:01:13. > :01:18.Britain will remain a very attractive place to invest,

:01:19. > :01:21.create jobs, to do business and we will take whatever steps

:01:22. > :01:26.we need to take to make sure that remains the case.

:01:27. > :01:36.Raising awareness of HIV, Prince Harry gets tested.

:01:37. > :01:38.And mind where you Go - police issue warnings

:01:39. > :01:43.that the cult Pokemon game is a risky business.

:01:44. > :01:45.And coming up in the sport on BBC News:

:01:46. > :01:48.It's day one of the 145th Open Championship at Royal Troon,

:01:49. > :01:50.and Britain's Justin Rose is among the best performers

:01:51. > :02:16.Good evening once again from Downing Street

:02:17. > :02:19.where Theresa May has completed forming her new cabinet -

:02:20. > :02:25.There have been jobs for some of those who challenged her while

:02:26. > :02:29.And jobs for Brexiteers as well as others who championed

:02:30. > :02:35.The former Justice Secretary, Michael Gove,

:02:36. > :02:38.who ran for the leadership, has gone as Justice Secretary and been

:02:39. > :02:39.replaced by the former Environment Secretary Liz Truss.

:02:40. > :02:42.The new Environment Secretary is Andrea Leadsom who, of course,

:02:43. > :02:44.also ran against Mrs May for the job of Prime Minister.

:02:45. > :02:47.Out too is Nicky Morgan as Education Secretary while Jeremy Hunt,

:02:48. > :02:49.the Health Secretary, currently embroiled in a dispute

:02:50. > :02:51.with junior doctors, stays where he is.

:02:52. > :03:01.Our political editor Laura Kuenssberg has the latest.

:03:02. > :03:09.Flowers on a day of congratulation, but commiserations as well. The

:03:10. > :03:16.busiest people in Westminster today worthy florists. Third time now. The

:03:17. > :03:20.Prime Minister was cracking on. Arriving for maybe her biggest job,

:03:21. > :03:26.getting her team right. It is not even like they get a job interview.

:03:27. > :03:31.Like Liz Truss, they turn up to find out what they have got. A cosy chat

:03:32. > :03:38.in Number Ten, and then in her case, they walk out as the new Secretary

:03:39. > :03:40.of State for Justice. Or like Justine Greening, you walk in with

:03:41. > :03:47.one cabinet post and leave with another. In her case, education. My

:03:48. > :03:55.perfect job, she said, heading straight to her new department. Are

:03:56. > :03:59.you looking forward to your new role? I am. Looking forward to

:04:00. > :04:08.getting on with the job. No time to waste. Reshuffles are strange days.

:04:09. > :04:11.Imagine being Damian Green, a senior MP walking at Whitehall, hoping but

:04:12. > :04:17.not really knowing if you are heading for the Cabinet. Who knows?

:04:18. > :04:21.Half an hour later, in charge of the Department for Work and Pensions,

:04:22. > :04:29.leaving in the Minister's are. But a politician who has had few doubts

:04:30. > :04:32.about his suitability for high office was enjoying his first day.

:04:33. > :04:36.It has been a very, very busy first day for me here at the Foreign

:04:37. > :04:41.Office, and it began with a big speech to about 700 of our staff. I

:04:42. > :04:46.set out what I think we need to be doing, what we need to be focusing

:04:47. > :04:53.on, and that is reshaping Britain's global profile and identity, as a

:04:54. > :04:56.great global player. So who else is in? Philip Hammond is the

:04:57. > :05:01.Chancellor, essentially the number two. Amber Rudd is the Home

:05:02. > :05:05.Secretary. Eurosceptic Andrea Leadsom moves into the Cabinet in

:05:06. > :05:12.charge of rural affairs. After some confusion over his role, Jeremy Hunt

:05:13. > :05:18.stays at health. Priti Patel, also part of the out campaign is promoted

:05:19. > :05:26.to defeat, the department which runs overseas aid. -- deep ID. Chris

:05:27. > :05:30.Grayling is in charge of transport. Today's losers did not have defaced

:05:31. > :05:34.the Downing Street wall of shame -- walk of shame. Theresa May told

:05:35. > :05:41.people of their services were required. George Osborne, the

:05:42. > :05:44.Chancellor for 60 years, is out, the biggest casualty. Michael Gove, his

:05:45. > :05:48.controversial friend was also shown the door. And Nicky Morgan who

:05:49. > :05:53.backed him to be the leader met the same fate. Oliver let women, one of

:05:54. > :05:58.David Cameron's thinkers, is out as well. And Stephen Crabb who run for

:05:59. > :06:03.leader as well. This is way more than the usual comings and goings of

:06:04. > :06:08.an ordinary reshuffle. This feels like a whole new government. Theresa

:06:09. > :06:11.May have taken big, bold decisions and there has been a no-nonsense

:06:12. > :06:16.clear out of some of the politicians who were seen by some as a clique

:06:17. > :06:21.around David Cameron and George Osborne. There are some of the same

:06:22. > :06:26.faces, and some of the same controversies and problems as well.

:06:27. > :06:30.But the government looks different, very different, and under Theresa

:06:31. > :06:35.May, what some ministers do will be different as well. There will not be

:06:36. > :06:39.a Budget within weeks as George Osborne claimed there would. We do

:06:40. > :06:44.not see the need for an emergency budget. I expect to make an Autumn

:06:45. > :06:47.Statement in the usual way, having spent the summer studying the effect

:06:48. > :06:52.on the economy so far, looking at our plan for the future, consulting

:06:53. > :06:57.with the experts, starting with the Governor of the Bank of England this

:06:58. > :07:04.morning. Remember, these changes are still within the same political

:07:05. > :07:09.party. The same side is in charge. But the Prime Minister wants a clean

:07:10. > :07:12.break. Don't forget, these jobs really do matter. The politics is

:07:13. > :07:15.personal as well. The new look Conservative

:07:16. > :07:17.government has not been The President of the European

:07:18. > :07:21.Parliament, Martin Schulz, said its composition was an attempt

:07:22. > :07:23.to keep the Tory party together rather than focus

:07:24. > :07:28.on the future of the country. There was criticism too of the new

:07:29. > :07:36.Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson who was described as "a liar"

:07:37. > :07:39.by his French counterpart. Our deputy political editor,

:07:40. > :07:43.Jon Pienaar, has more. In a shock move, she named her party

:07:44. > :07:46.rival Boris Johnson It wasn't just

:07:47. > :07:54.us who were surprised. Boris Johnson has been put in charge

:07:55. > :07:57.of quiet British diplomacy after a career strewn with colourful

:07:58. > :08:07.outbursts and more than the odd gap. Around the world,

:08:08. > :08:09.reaction has been mixed. Some amusement, quite

:08:10. > :08:11.a lot of shock. On Twitter, the former Swedish

:08:12. > :08:13.leader thought it was a joke. The former Belgian

:08:14. > :08:15.Prime Minister did too. "British humour has no

:08:16. > :08:17.borders", he wrote. Australia said "good wishes

:08:18. > :08:19.to a good friend," but others in France and Germany

:08:20. > :08:21.were less friendly. And Martin Schulz, President

:08:22. > :08:26.of the European Parliament, has described the Cabinet reshuffle

:08:27. > :08:28.which made Mr Johnson Foreign Secretary as part of a dangerously

:08:29. > :08:31.vicious cycle since the vote French Foreign Minister

:08:32. > :08:37.Jean-Marc Ayrault said in an interview the new Foreign

:08:38. > :08:39.Secretary His German counterpart called

:08:40. > :08:45.Mr Johnson's behaviour "monstrous". After a vote like the referendum

:08:46. > :08:48.result on June 23rd, it is inevitable there

:08:49. > :08:50.is going to be a certain amount the ceiling in the

:08:51. > :08:54.chancelleries of Europe. It wasn't the result

:08:55. > :08:57.they were expecting and clearly they are making their views known

:08:58. > :09:02.in a frank and free way. I have to say that the gentleman

:09:03. > :09:04.that you mentioned, the French Foreign Minister,

:09:05. > :09:07.in fact, has sent me a charming saying how much he looks forward

:09:08. > :09:14.to working together. Here in the UK, this

:09:15. > :09:20.was the reaction of one of the Labour's

:09:21. > :09:21.leadership challengers. They have just made him

:09:22. > :09:23.Foreign Secretary? In America, they know

:09:24. > :09:26.about Boris Johnson's He compared presidential candidate

:09:27. > :09:30.Hillary Clinton to a sadistic nurse and during President Obama's British

:09:31. > :09:34.visit, he wrote about what he called "The part-Kenyan President's

:09:35. > :09:36.ancestral dislike In Washington, which also took

:09:37. > :09:43.the losing side against the campaign a State Department spokesman's

:09:44. > :09:47.face spoke volumes. The British Foreign Secretary

:09:48. > :09:49.has just been announced I mean, we are always going to be

:09:50. > :10:00.able to work with the British, no matter who is occupying the role

:10:01. > :10:03.of Foreign Secretary. Boris Johnson addressed his

:10:04. > :10:06.new staff today, looking the part. That is what diplomacy

:10:07. > :10:08.is about sometimes. Colleagues say he has got

:10:09. > :10:14.the talent and for the job, Colleagues say he has got the talent

:10:15. > :10:17.and brains for the job, but he'll have to get used

:10:18. > :10:20.to being a little less interesting. The new Chancellor of

:10:21. > :10:22.the Exchequer Philip Hammond says the decision to leave

:10:23. > :10:24.the European Union has had a chilling effect

:10:25. > :10:26.on the UK economy - but the Government will do whatever

:10:27. > :10:29.is needed to restore confidence. The Bank of England has surprised

:10:30. > :10:30.many A cut had been widely expected

:10:31. > :10:36.in a bid to boost the economy - as our economics editor

:10:37. > :10:48.Kamal Ahmed reports. He was the future once. George

:10:49. > :10:52.Osborne, an austerity budget after austerity budget. A plan which has

:10:53. > :10:56.been religiously followed for six years. Today, the new man Philip

:10:57. > :11:01.Hammond and a change of tone. Out goes the language of cuts and

:11:02. > :11:05.deficits. In comes the language of reassurance and an economy that

:11:06. > :11:11.works, apparently, for everyone. The referendum he admitted had created a

:11:12. > :11:20.short-term shock. Our job now is to reassure markets, reassure

:11:21. > :11:23.investors, reassure businesses about the future of this company, set a

:11:24. > :11:26.clear plan about where we are going, restoring the confidence as quickly

:11:27. > :11:31.as possible and that is what we intend to do. The question on

:11:32. > :11:34.everyone's lips, what is Philip Hammond's agenda? He has signalled

:11:35. > :11:39.there should be no increase on taxes. On borrowing, the deficit

:11:40. > :11:44.reduction target has been abandoned, and on trade with Europe, Mr Hammond

:11:45. > :11:49.insisted Britain was still open for business. Big decisions are ready

:11:50. > :11:54.for take-off. An airport expansion, Mr Hammond remained neutral on a

:11:55. > :11:59.decision which has faced years of delays. When a new power station at

:12:00. > :12:03.Hinkley Point, the Chancellor was warmer, backing the project. There

:12:04. > :12:08.is no better signal about being open for business than infrastructure

:12:09. > :12:11.spending. The Davis commission recommended Heathrow, now just get

:12:12. > :12:17.on with it. The other big project we would love to see taken forward is

:12:18. > :12:22.HS2. It will bring a spine up the country and bring regional growth to

:12:23. > :12:27.the UK. Let's get on with it. Not getting on with it, the Bank of

:12:28. > :12:31.England, which held interest rates at 0.5%. The Bank of England

:12:32. > :12:34.certainly surprised the market and a lot of economists when they said

:12:35. > :12:39.today they would not be cutting interest rates to help stimulate the

:12:40. > :12:43.economy. Not yet anyway. I think that makes an important point. It is

:12:44. > :12:47.not the Governor of this place which is most vital when it comes to the

:12:48. > :12:52.direction of travel for the UK economy, that job is down to the new

:12:53. > :12:57.Prime Minister, the new Chancellor. Their policies will play a much more

:12:58. > :13:01.significant role. We will not know those details until the Autumn

:13:02. > :13:07.Statement and that is months away. Economists say speed is now the

:13:08. > :13:10.essence. Businesses are waiting for the government to provide some

:13:11. > :13:15.clarity on how it is going to support the economy, how it is going

:13:16. > :13:21.to affect their plans, and waiting until the Autumn Statement may be

:13:22. > :13:23.too long. The bank did warn the housing market and consumer

:13:24. > :13:26.confidence have suffered since June 23 and said it was ready to cut

:13:27. > :13:32.interest rates next month if necessary. Whether it feels the need

:13:33. > :13:36.may depend in part on how far Mr Hammond is keeping his side of the

:13:37. > :13:39.bargain on boosting Britain's economy.

:13:40. > :13:42.Both the Bank and the Chancellor have warned about the adverse effect

:13:43. > :13:44.the Brexit vote could have on the economy.

:13:45. > :13:47.The boss of the high street retailer Next, Lord Wolfson -

:13:48. > :13:49.who backed leaving the EU - has told the BBC

:13:50. > :13:54.Other businesses say they're planning to cut back production -

:13:55. > :14:02.as our Business Editor Simon Jack reports, from Stoke on Trent.

:14:03. > :14:09.After the intense heat of the European referendum, no city in the

:14:10. > :14:14.UK are merged with a more hardened resolve than Stoke-on-Trent. 70% of

:14:15. > :14:17.voters wanted a break with the European Union. That level of

:14:18. > :14:23.certainty at the ballot box has lead to uncertainty for one of its most

:14:24. > :14:28.famous businesses. Pottery maker Portmeirion has cut production by

:14:29. > :14:32.80% this year. To is the uncertainty in the consumer's mind which is

:14:33. > :14:35.making the retailers think how much stock should we order? And with

:14:36. > :14:40.retailers considering how much stock to order, we have to be careful not

:14:41. > :14:44.just to make stock to add it to stock. We are having to pull back

:14:45. > :14:50.just a little bit on our production levels. Not all retailers are

:14:51. > :14:54.cautious. One of the cables are biggest said concern is overdone.

:14:55. > :14:57.These things are always slightly overdone in the media and I think

:14:58. > :15:02.most people are taking a calm look at it. I suspect the devaluation of

:15:03. > :15:08.the pound will be more of a boost to British Manufacturing than people

:15:09. > :15:11.are expecting. To who is right? Is it business as usual or are there

:15:12. > :15:14.signs of trouble ahead? The Bank of England has described the vote to

:15:15. > :15:20.leave as a potential economic trauma. You might think of it as a

:15:21. > :15:22.punch on the nose which has not started hurting yet. Some people

:15:23. > :15:29.have been talking as if an economic downturn is imminent or underway.

:15:30. > :15:37.And yet percent of people in Stoke got what they wanted. Some people

:15:38. > :15:44.will see it as time for optimism. We have to sit back and Steve what

:15:45. > :15:48.happens. Get on with it? Yes. It is what it is. Let's jump at the

:15:49. > :15:57.opportunity to make the best of it. Comeback in 12 months and see and we

:15:58. > :16:01.will be there. Where we'll we be? Higher-ups up. Better. I voted to

:16:02. > :16:09.come out and I cannot wait for it to happen. Surveys out today point to

:16:10. > :16:15.slowing activity in the south-east but agents here are not seeing that.

:16:16. > :16:20.Business is good, no significant difference post Brexit, if anything,

:16:21. > :16:24.the number of applicants has increased. Business is likely them

:16:25. > :16:27.but we expect that during the holiday time anyway. Here in the

:16:28. > :16:31.potteries, people have pinned their hopes on a bright future after

:16:32. > :16:32.Brexit. It will be weeks, months, even years before we know whether

:16:33. > :16:35.that confidence was justified. Our political editor

:16:36. > :16:43.Laura Kuenssberg is here. Laura, there is so much to talk

:16:44. > :16:46.about. Let's go back to this business of the new Cabinet, what it

:16:47. > :16:49.tells us about the way the Government is going. But before

:16:50. > :16:54.that, you learn about the visit of the Prime Minister is making

:16:55. > :16:57.tomorrow. Less than 24 hours ago, Theresa May stood there and one of

:16:58. > :17:00.the first things she said in her speech was the union between

:17:01. > :17:11.Scotland and the rest of the UK was one of her priorities, she saw it as

:17:12. > :17:14.a duty to preserve the union. Not to anywhere in England, not a grand

:17:15. > :17:21.speech in London, her first visit is going to be to Scotland, which means

:17:22. > :17:25.what she said yesterday, she means, the union, tested by the differing

:17:26. > :17:29.results in a referendum, is going to be at the top of her list. Today has

:17:30. > :17:34.been dominated by the comings and goings, rushing up and down don't

:17:35. > :17:37.activate Downing Street as ministers left after they had learned their

:17:38. > :17:42.street -- up and down Downing Street. We can learn something about

:17:43. > :17:45.Theresa May's decisions in putting together 13, removing what many

:17:46. > :17:52.people saw as a clique around David Cameron and George Osborne shows

:17:53. > :17:56.that she wants to move on from that. Not necessarily get rid of the ideas

:17:57. > :17:59.but move on from the atmosphere of those characters and have a clean

:18:00. > :18:03.break in terms of the personalities involved, and that has been seen as

:18:04. > :18:07.an extremely bold decision. She has moved that people who were very,

:18:08. > :18:11.very powerful in this neck of the woods. Beyond that, though, I think

:18:12. > :18:15.we have seen she has actually tried to include people from almost all

:18:16. > :18:21.parts of the Conservative Party. There are some very traditional

:18:22. > :18:24.Eurosceptics in there, likely on Fox, plenty of people who campaigned

:18:25. > :18:28.for out, like Andrea Leeds, who quit the leadership race so sensationally

:18:29. > :18:34.-- Andrea Letson. But there are people on the more moderate side of

:18:35. > :18:39.the conservatory party too. -- Conservative Party. These might look

:18:40. > :18:42.like they are only Westminster injury, they matter enormously,

:18:43. > :18:45.because at the end of the day, these are the people who will make

:18:46. > :18:46.decisions that really will affect all of our lives.

:18:47. > :18:49.That's it from Downing street for now, a quick reminder that

:18:50. > :18:52.you can catch up with all the latest on our website, including

:18:53. > :18:54.analysis and background of Theresa May's new cabinet.

:18:57. > :19:02.Now it's back to Reeta in the studio.

:19:03. > :19:13.Fiona, thank you. Our top story this evening:

:19:14. > :19:16.Theresa May has spent her first full day in office,

:19:17. > :19:19.She wasted no time in making some radical changes.

:19:48. > :19:50.Prince Harry has been tested for HIV in a bid to raise awareness

:19:51. > :19:52.and to encourage others to do the same.

:19:53. > :19:54.According to the latest figures, there are over 100,000 people

:19:55. > :19:58.And there are thought to be around 18,000 people

:20:18. > :20:19.was being filmed and streamed live on social media.

:20:36. > :20:39.awareness and understanding of HIV and testing.

:20:40. > :20:43.Alex was diagnosed as HIV positive seven years ago

:20:44. > :20:45.after a routine check, but on the right medication,

:20:46. > :20:52.one pill a day, he says he can lead a normal life.

:20:53. > :20:55.It's great that we have an ambassador like Prince Harry that

:20:56. > :20:57.wants to get involved in HIV, not only here in the UK,

:20:58. > :21:00.but in Africa as well, to stand in solidarity with people

:21:01. > :21:04.It is all very different from the 1980s, when Prince Harry's

:21:10. > :21:21.since then, doctors say medicine has made big strides forward.

:21:22. > :21:23.This is another viral illness that we now have great treatment

:21:24. > :21:27.We shouldn't have the stigma, carry the stigma, that we had

:21:28. > :21:31.We are in a new era, the science has managed to take

:21:32. > :21:34.Prince Harry's visit was aimed at showing that HIV test

:21:35. > :21:37.Prince Harry's visit was aimed at showing that an HIV test

:21:38. > :21:41.So simple, in fact, that there is now a home testing kit,

:21:42. > :21:43.which the Prince was shown, allowing someone to test

:21:44. > :21:46.themselves if they don't want to go into a clinic.

:21:47. > :21:48.Prince Harry's view - wherever it happens,

:21:49. > :21:49.nobody should be worried about the test.

:21:50. > :21:52.Whether you are a man, woman, gay, straight,

:21:53. > :22:00.black, white, whatever, even ginger,

:22:01. > :22:02.why wouldn't you come and have a test?

:22:15. > :22:14.platform with Sir Elton John at the International conference in South

:22:17. > :22:18.there's insufficient evidence to charge a man in connection

:22:19. > :22:21.with the sudden death of his Poppi Worthington died from serious

:22:22. > :22:25.injuries in 2012. A judge ruled that she'd probably

:22:26. > :22:27.been sexually assaulted by her father before

:22:28. > :22:29.she died, which he denied. Today, Cumbria Police apologised

:22:30. > :22:33.for failures in their investigation of her death, including failing

:22:34. > :22:35.to preserve evidence There have been extraordinary scenes

:22:36. > :22:43.in the Tour de France today where the defending champion,

:22:44. > :22:46.the British cyclist Chris Froome, was forced to abandon his bike

:22:47. > :22:49.and start running up Froome had been knocked off his bike

:22:50. > :22:54.after a pile-up involving spectators Our Sports correspondent

:22:55. > :23:09.Natalie Pirks has the story. The climbs of Mont Burt who are in

:23:10. > :23:13.tents without having to attempt them on foot the yellow jersey is running

:23:14. > :23:18.up the Tour de France. -- Mont Vertoux. In farcical scenes, Chris

:23:19. > :23:21.Froome's desperation to retain the lead saw him turn triathlete,

:23:22. > :23:25.running without a bike up the mountain. It may have looked like a

:23:26. > :23:28.crowd pleaser but Chris Froome was far from pleased with the crowds.

:23:29. > :23:34.And this is why, their desire to get in the faces of the riders meant a

:23:35. > :23:37.camera bike had to stop suddenly, sending Richie Porte, and in turn

:23:38. > :23:43.Chris Froome, headfirst into the back of it. By the time Chris Froome

:23:44. > :23:48.was able to grab a usable bike, he had lost major ground on his rivals.

:23:49. > :23:53.Furiously shaking his head as he crossed the line. But with his dream

:23:54. > :23:58.of a third Vertoux Erwin hanging in the balance, the jury decided the

:23:59. > :24:04.result shouldn't stand, leaving a very happy Froome to tweet "Still in

:24:05. > :24:05.the yellow jersey". So Froome keeps his jersey but not his patients with

:24:06. > :24:09.rowdy crowds. Now, it has been a huge success

:24:10. > :24:13.in the US and was launched in the UK today and already the smartphone

:24:14. > :24:16.game Pokemon Go is making waves - but maybe not for the reasons

:24:17. > :24:18.its designers hoped. The game involves catching Pokemon

:24:19. > :24:21.characters on your phone But both the police

:24:22. > :24:25.and the NSPCC have said here's our Technology Correspondent,

:24:26. > :24:30.Rory Cellan-Jones. Now Pokemon Go is getting millions

:24:31. > :24:39.here staring at their phones Everyone in their 20s

:24:40. > :24:44.grew up on Pokemon. It is like your childhood

:24:45. > :24:46.all over again, really. The game uses your phone's mapping

:24:47. > :24:53.function and then its camera to overlay virtual characters

:24:54. > :24:55.on the real world. It means you can walk around

:24:56. > :25:00.anywhere and find a Pokemon. I am going to throw a ball

:25:01. > :25:05.at it, hit it. I have got it, I have

:25:06. > :25:13.got my first Pokemon. This group from Wired magazine

:25:14. > :25:15.spent their lunchtime headhunting It is actually the idea

:25:16. > :25:21.of being outside, getting to see London and at the same time hunting

:25:22. > :25:24.these Pokemon and as you can see, it is a group event and I think it

:25:25. > :25:27.has just captured people's imagination in terms of getting

:25:28. > :25:30.about and doing stuff Now, the app may be free but that

:25:31. > :25:34.doesn't mean it won't prove There are already suggestions that

:25:35. > :25:41.shops and other businesses could pay to be Poke-stops where you can find

:25:42. > :25:43.plenty of Pokemon, thereby attracting large crowds

:25:44. > :25:45.through their doors. In the United States,

:25:46. > :25:49.several people have suffered accidents when walking or even

:25:50. > :25:51.driving while playing the game. Three men in the US have been

:25:52. > :25:57.arrested after allegedly trying to lure players

:25:58. > :25:59.to a secluded place to rob them. Here in Britain, police are already

:26:00. > :26:01.issuing safety guidance That means there's one

:26:02. > :26:08.nearby, just hanging out. But Pokemon, which started in Japan

:26:09. > :26:11.20 years ago, is back It could be the future of gaming

:26:12. > :26:29.or just another short lived craze. Let's look at the weather now with

:26:30. > :26:33.John Hammond. It has been an up-and-down summer to

:26:34. > :26:37.put it politely, but for once, today was a lovely day for virtually all

:26:38. > :26:41.of us. This was taken in Shropshire, very typical for the rest of the

:26:42. > :26:47.country, some fluffy and fairweather cloud, the odd shower inside but

:26:48. > :26:50.most of us dry with some sunshine. Cloud is massing across Ireland, the

:26:51. > :26:54.sign of things to come because it will continue to kick in and around

:26:55. > :26:58.about midnight, rain will spreading across Northern Ireland, pushing

:26:59. > :27:04.into western fringes of mainland Scotland through the night. Across

:27:05. > :27:09.Western counties, it will be chilly but at the other end of the UK, if

:27:10. > :27:12.you are a player or spectator at Troon for the Open, brace yourself,

:27:13. > :27:16.it is going to be a completely different day compared to today.

:27:17. > :27:20.Fairly relentless rain through the morning, it may ease off for a time

:27:21. > :27:24.in the afternoon, but if you factor in the gusty wind, not great

:27:25. > :27:28.conditions to say the least. A lot of wet weather for western Scotland,

:27:29. > :27:34.patchy stuff further eased. It will improve for a time in Northern

:27:35. > :27:39.Ireland as bits of rain pass across. Southern counties should stay dry.

:27:40. > :27:44.In any brightness, still up into the low 20s and quite muddy. Looking

:27:45. > :27:47.further ahead into tomorrow night and into Saturday, this trading cold

:27:48. > :27:51.front, a narrowing band of rain, tracking its way down through

:27:52. > :27:58.England and Wales, probably not making it to the south-west and

:27:59. > :28:02.Wales, so patchy. It is a dividing line, warm air to the south, fresher

:28:03. > :28:05.conditions to the north and some blustery showers across the west of

:28:06. > :28:09.Scotland. They will continue through Sunday, where most of the action

:28:10. > :28:14.will be across the northern half of the UK, quite blustery and fresh.

:28:15. > :28:18.Further south, not much rain, mainly dry and where there is any sunshine,

:28:19. > :28:19.it will be warm. Now back to Fiona in Downing Street.

:28:20. > :28:24.A reminder of our main story this evening and it's been another day

:28:25. > :28:26.full of drama here in Downing Street as Theresa May carried out

:28:27. > :28:28.a sweeping reshuffle, assembling her new Government team

:28:29. > :28:30.and making a string of high-profile sackings -

:28:31. > :28:33.all signifying a big break from the Cameron years.

:28:34. > :28:35.In all, ten Ministers have left the Cabinet.

:28:36. > :28:37.The biggest casualty yesterday was, of course, the Chancellor

:28:38. > :28:42.Today, among the departures was Michael Gove -

:28:43. > :28:44.a former leadership challenger to Mrs May - who was sacked

:28:45. > :28:50.Nicky Morgan goes - with Justine Greening taking over

:28:51. > :28:57.Stephen Crabb resigned as Work and Pensions Secretary -

:28:58. > :28:59.he'll be replaced by Damien Green and Chris Grayling becomes

:29:00. > :29:12.Andrea Leadsom, a leading Brexit campaigner, who challenged Theresa

:29:13. > :29:14.May for the leadership, is brought into the Cabinet as Enviroment

:29:15. > :29:15.Secretary. But one person not on the move -

:29:16. > :29:19.Jeremy Hunt is staying put That's all from the BBC News at Six

:29:20. > :29:23.here at Downing Street,
