Getting on the housing ladder is increasingly hard, | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
not just in London, but in all major English cities, according | :00:07. | :00:09. | |
There've been sharp drops in home ownership in all major urban areas, | :00:10. | :00:15. | |
I've been trying to save for a fair few years now just to get | :00:16. | :00:21. | |
Unless your parents can help you, really, these days it's so hard | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
We'll be asking why government schemes to help people | :00:26. | :00:29. | |
buy their own homes have failed, and what more they can do. | :00:30. | :00:33. | |
A drug to prevent HIV can be made available in England, | :00:34. | :00:38. | |

A man is jailed for life for the rape and murder | :00:43. | :00:45. | |

in Northampton, her father spoke of the family's loss. | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
I'm sure that I and other family members will continually have | :00:53. | :00:57. | |
moments like this of pain, anguish, emotion, until we | :00:58. | :00:59. | |
With the Rio Olympics starting at the end of the week, | :01:00. | :01:07. | |
Brazil becomes the cheerleader for its own Games. | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
And wanted, a teacher for a very small school, | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
Coming up in the sport on BBC News, there's an England recall | :01:15. | :01:20. | |
for Steven Finn for the third test against Pakistan which starts | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
The housing crisis so commonly associated with London has spread | :01:24. | :01:51. | |
to other regions of England, according to new analysis. | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
The think tank The Resolution Foundation says that areas | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
in northern England and the Midlands are becoming increasingly | :01:59. | :02:00. | |
unaffordable, with the proportion owning their own home falling most | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
Our Home Editor Mark Easton is in Salford and sent this report. | :02:05. | :02:13. | |
If we thought the housing crisis was just a London and south-east | :02:14. | :02:16. | |
New analysis of official figures suggests the impact has been | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
And nowhere more so than in Greater Manchester, | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
where the proportion who own their own home has | :02:24. | :02:25. | |
fallen dramatically over the last 10-15 years. | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
Welcome to Reservoir Street in Salford, Greater Manchester. | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
A terrace which mirrors the story of inner-city housing. | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
When these homes were built just over 100 years ago, | :02:38. | :02:39. | |
Home ownership was only for the privileged few. | :02:40. | :02:46. | |
Over the decades, they were bought by their occupants. | :02:47. | :02:49. | |
But then as people left the inner cities, they fell into disrepair. | :02:50. | :02:52. | |
Now, after a refurbishment, more than half are being rented | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
again, mostly from private landlords. | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
I've been trying to save for a fair few years now just to get | :03:00. | :03:05. | |
Unless your parents can help you, really, these days it's so hard | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
I've noticed a few for sale signs, who's buying? | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
My landlord is actually someone from London. | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
A lot of people are coming up here to buy them because they | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
are cheaper investments than anything down in London. | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
And then renting them out to people like you? | :03:23. | :03:24. | |
Yes, it's people like us who are renting them. | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
Local estate agents say recent changes to stamp duty are deterring | :03:30. | :03:31. | |
some buy to let landlords, but the market has been | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
A lot of first-time buyers were being beaten | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
They were paying a good price for a good property and the first | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
time buyers just weren't getting a look in. | :03:46. | :03:47. | |
Reservoir Street has another claim to fame. | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
It was the original Coronation Street in the titles | :03:53. | :03:54. | |
of the soap opera when it launched back in 1960. | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
Then, most people in Manchester rented. | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
Two decades on, and Margaret Thatcher's Right to Buy legislation | :04:02. | :04:08. | |
Home ownership in England peaked in 2003, but has | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
Social housing has also been declining, with the private rented | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
There have been big falls in homeownership | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
in Greater Manchester, in the West Midlands, | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
Government schemes like Starter Homes and the extension | :04:25. | :04:34. | |
of Right to Buy show ministers' commitment to home ownership. | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
We've helped over 300,000 people since we came in in 2010 to get | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
The Prime Minister was very clear outside Downing Street when she took | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
over that there's more to do, and she wants to ensure that people | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
who work hard have the chance to own their own home. | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
The government says it will build 1 million | :04:51. | :04:51. | |
new homes in England by 2020, but with the average house now | :04:52. | :04:54. | |
costing more than five times the annual earnings of the average | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
first-time buyer, home ownership looks likely to remain | :04:58. | :04:59. | |
The focus on trying to reverse the decline in homeownership is actually | :05:00. | :05:15. | |
a specifically English policy. In Scotland the Scottish Government | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
only yesterday ended 30 years of right to buy for council tenants, | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
saying they want to preserve and increase the amount of social | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
housing on offer in Scotland. There is a debate as to where the focus | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
should be, on home ownership or on providing decent and affordable | :05:32. | :05:32. | |
rental homes. When she became Prime Minister, | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
Theresa May talked about the "injustice" of finding it | :05:36. | :05:37. | |
"harder than ever" to own your own Our Political Correspondent Alex | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
Forsyth is in Downing Street, where there's been a Cabinet meeting | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
looking at economic strategy. Cabinet meetings go on all the time, | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
why is Downing St keen This was a routine meeting but it | :05:47. | :05:59. | |
was of a new committee. And one that was set up specifically to show | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
Theresa May's commitment to the priorities she outlined when she | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
took office. Namely, creating an economy that works for all. And I'm | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
told that the meeting they talked about supporting all areas of the | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
country, boosting productivity, tackling low wages, addressing | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
issues of inequality and poverty. These are deep-rooted complex | :06:22. | :06:24. | |
problems which have plagued successive governments. The last | :06:25. | :06:27. | |
government was committed to increasing homeownership but critics | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
would say today's report shows its policies failed, because it didn't | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
build enough times. Theresa May is keen to show her intent to tackle | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
these problems, but in this early stage we've had no detail of the | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
policy on how exactly she plans to deliver. | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
Campaigners who want the NHS to pay for a drug that can prevent HIV have | :06:47. | :06:50. | |
A judge ruled a pill to prevent infection can be funded | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
But there is controversy over who should pay, | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
The drug, called PrEP, can be up to ?400 a month per patient. | :06:58. | :07:05. | |
And the estimated annual cost to the NHS in England | :07:06. | :07:08. | |
But the current price of a lifetime of treatment for a patient with HIV | :07:09. | :07:20. | |
is nearly ?400,000 pounds, and so campaigners argue | :07:21. | :07:22. | |
that the cost of Prep is actually a saving. | :07:23. | :07:24. | |
He may have been nervous, but his blood test for HIV | :07:25. | :07:30. | |
was being filmed and streamed live on social media. | :07:31. | :07:36. | |
Just a month before he thought he'd be chosen for a trial of the drug | :07:37. | :07:42. | |
but he narrowly missed out. He's back now to his training as a circus | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
performer and says the argument in favour of the drug known as PrEP is | :07:47. | :07:51. | |
clear. It's one thing we don't think about a lot. It stops the | :07:52. | :07:58. | |
transmission of the facts but also the psychological effects which can | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
and do destroy people's lives. Trials have shown PrEP to be highly | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
effective for those most at risk from HIV. The NHS argument was that | :08:08. | :08:11. | |
in England local authorities are responsible for sexual health and | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
prevention, so they should pay for it. That was rejected by a High | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
Court judge. If you ignore AIDS it could be the death of you. AIDS is | :08:22. | :08:26. | |
no longer the threat it was in the 1980s. Thanks to new drugs HIV | :08:27. | :08:33. | |
patients are less likely to develop AIDS. Campaign say reducing the HIV | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
infection rate is still a priority and today's ruling is significant. | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
We are really delighted. It's such an important decision that could | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
have such great impact for people at risk of HIV. Why do you say the NHS | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
should pay to protect people when they could look after themselves by | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
having protected sex? The majority of gay men do protect themselves by | :08:57. | :09:01. | |
using condom is. We know from studies that condom use is much | :09:02. | :09:07. | |
higher among gay men than the general population. But often people | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
aren't able to successfully use a condom every single time. The legal | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
battle is far from over. NHS England says it will appeal against the | :09:16. | :09:19. | |
ruling, even if that fails it is under no obligation to fund the drug | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
or do anything more than consider its cost effectiveness alongside | :09:25. | :09:26. | |
treatments for other health conditions. PrEP would be seen and | :09:27. | :09:35. | |
considered alongside 13 other treatments, including treatments for | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
children with cystic fibrosis, prosthetic limb loss and certain | :09:39. | :09:44. | |
types of auditory implants. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
are facing the same dilemma as they tried to come to a decision on PrEP. | :09:48. | :09:53. | |
As far as Sadiq is concerned, the new drug deserves a fair hearing. I | :09:54. | :09:59. | |
missed a chance, and that's why I advocate for PrEP. Other people in | :10:00. | :10:02. | |
my position with the right knowledge which can be provided can stop | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
themselves contracting HIV. Even though I am strong and healthy and | :10:07. | :10:14. | |
fit, it's still hits me every time I think about it. | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
A man has been found guilty of raping and murdering a young | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
woman he promised to "get home safe" after approaching her outside | :10:22. | :10:23. | |
Birmingham Crown Court heard that 52-year-old Edward Tenniswood found | :10:24. | :10:26. | |
India Chipchase in a drunken state outside the club in January. | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
He's been sentenced to life with a minimum | :10:32. | :10:33. | |
Friends described her as a delightful girl, | :10:34. | :10:43. | |
But one night in January, the wrong place, the wrong time | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
This is the man who killed India, 52-year-old Edward Tenniswood, | :10:49. | :10:59. | |
He had been passing this Northampton nightclub when he spotted India. | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
She'd been on a night out with friends. | :11:05. | :11:07. | |
In security footage from outside the club, Tenniswood can be seen | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
leaning into his victim, urging the 20-year-old | :11:11. | :11:12. | |
Tenniswood was a self-confessed alcoholic who would drink three | :11:13. | :11:19. | |
He claimed that when he met India Chipchase here, | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
he had managed to charm her, despite the fact she was 30 years | :11:25. | :11:27. | |
He went on to tell the court that it was she who had first | :11:28. | :11:33. | |
The pair can be seen in the top left of the picture. | :11:34. | :11:41. | |
He admitted in court that he had promised India | :11:42. | :11:43. | |
Instead, they stopped here at his terraced house. | :11:44. | :11:50. | |
He raped and murdered the 20-year-old in an upstairs room. | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
He headed to this local hotel, where he spent the next 22 | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
When Miss Chipchase's family raised the alarm, | :11:59. | :12:00. | |
the police traced Tenniswood to the hotel, where he was arrested. | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
India was a young, intelligent woman at the start of her life. | :12:05. | :12:09. | |
She should have been able to enjoy a night out with friends, | :12:10. | :12:11. | |
It is clear that India was targeted by Tenniswood at a point in her life | :12:12. | :12:19. | |
where she was most vulnerable and unable to defend herself. | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
The actions, in my view, are of the worst predator. | :12:25. | :12:35. | |
India's father recorded a victim impact statement as a video. Today | :12:36. | :12:43. | |
it was played in court. We love her now and will always love her. Even | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
though will never experience her smile, laughter, caring again, her | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
photographs will adorn our walls, the memories will live on and her | :12:52. | :12:53. | |
spirit will always be in our hearts. India Chipchase had, | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
in the weeks before her death, decided she wanted to | :12:58. | :12:59. | |
become a paramedic. That dream ended at the hands | :13:00. | :13:01. | |
of an opportunistic killer. Sangita Myska, BBC News, | :13:02. | :13:03. | |
Birmingham Crown Court. A man suspected of murdering a | :13:04. | :13:19. | |
six-year-old boy 22 years ago has been arrested in Portugal. Rikki | :13:20. | :13:23. | |
Neave's body was found in woodland in Peterborough in November 19 94. | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
He had been strangled. Police reopened the investigation last year | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
and arrested a man in April. Extradition proceedings have now | :13:34. | :13:36. | |
begun after he was found in Lisbon. The funeral has taken place of the | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
French priest killed in his church in Normandy by Islamist extremists. | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
Father Jacques Hamel was killed by two French teenagers who pledged | :13:47. | :13:49. | |
allegiance to the group known as Islamic State. James Reynolds is in | :13:50. | :13:59. | |
Rouen. The brutality of Father Hamill's killing continues to | :14:00. | :14:01. | |
horrify a country that have had to get used to attack after attack. | :14:02. | :14:07. | |
This afternoon many of those who knew the priest best, parishioners | :14:08. | :14:11. | |
who he baptised, married or comforted, turned up for his | :14:12. | :14:12. | |
funeral. The city of Rouen came | :14:13. | :14:15. | |
to its gothic Cathedral to bury The body of 85-year-old Father | :14:16. | :14:18. | |
Jacques Hamel was borne inside. "No-one deserves to die | :14:19. | :14:28. | |
like he did", said Nicol Poplan, "we knew the Father so well, | :14:29. | :14:31. | |
it hurts us so very badly." More than 1,500 mourners | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
heard tributes paid "I love you, uncle", | :14:36. | :14:37. | |
said his niece, Jessica. The Archbishop spoke | :14:38. | :14:47. | |
directly to the assailants TRANSLATION: You who are tormented | :14:48. | :14:52. | |
by diabolical violence, pray that God frees you from the clutches | :14:53. | :15:05. | |
of the demon. The mourners here at the Cathedral | :15:06. | :15:07. | |
will have many questions. Could the French authorities have | :15:08. | :15:13. | |
done more to stop the two attackers from getting to the priest | :15:14. | :15:16. | |
in his church? And, more broadly, | :15:17. | :15:21. | |
what can this country do For some here, | :15:22. | :15:23. | |
the answer is obvious. TRANSLATION: The government must | :15:24. | :15:30. | |
check the prisons, it It must not allow people | :15:31. | :15:32. | |
who try to go and fight Decades ago, Jacques Hamel also | :15:33. | :15:47. | |
left his own country to go to war. He did his military service | :15:48. | :15:52. | |
in Algeria, where the family of one Kareem Beniash's family | :15:53. | :15:54. | |
is also from Algeria, he came here to share | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
the city's grief. We Muslims of France, | :15:59. | :16:01. | |
we have to be with our French We have to be with them | :16:02. | :16:04. | |
and with Christians, especially Christians, | :16:05. | :16:14. | |
because they believe in the same France is a secular state, | :16:15. | :16:15. | |
but this afternoon the old rituals of the Catholic Church | :16:16. | :16:19. | |
had their place. In the 15th Century in Rouen, | :16:20. | :16:23. | |
Joan of Arc was burnt at the stake. This city knows how to grieve | :16:24. | :16:28. | |
for those who died for their faith. The time is 6. 16pm. Our top story | :16:29. | :16:31. | |

to the semi-finals of Euro 2016, a month after signing | :17:00. | :17:03. | |
a new two-year contract. The build-up to the Rio Olympics has | :17:04. | :17:16. | |
so far been overshadowed by the row over doping, | :17:17. | :17:22. | |
with the president of the International Olympic Committee | :17:23. | :17:24. | |
today adding his voice to those calling for a complete overhaul | :17:25. | :17:26. | |
of sport's anti-doping system. But, with the Opening Ceremony now | :17:27. | :17:29. | |
only three days away, the authorities in Rio | :17:30. | :17:31. | |
say they're optimistic, claiming the Games will be a big | :17:32. | :17:34. | |
success once they get underway. Here's our Brazil correspondent, | :17:35. | :17:37. | |
Wyre Davies. They were such a big part of making | :17:38. | :17:41. | |
the London Olympics the success it was, and they will be equally | :17:42. | :17:47. | |
as important here - 50,000 volunteers from across Brazil | :17:48. | :17:50. | |
and across the world. The atmosphere in London | :17:51. | :17:54. | |
was incredible. The way it brought | :17:55. | :17:56. | |
the whole people together. I think here it's going to be | :17:57. | :17:58. | |
probably even better because I'm actually | :17:59. | :18:07. | |
going to be within the stadium. For Rio locals, it's | :18:08. | :18:12. | |
a moment of pride. "It's my city, my country and I'm | :18:13. | :18:14. | |
really excited", she says. The run-up to these Games has been | :18:15. | :18:22. | |
dogged by concerns about water Some athletes have been | :18:23. | :18:25. | |
training here for a while, others just arriving and, | :18:26. | :18:34. | |
by in large, they're We're confident we've got | :18:35. | :18:35. | |
the right measures in place. We talk to sailing and rowing | :18:36. | :18:41. | |
on a regular basis. They feel comfortable | :18:42. | :18:45. | |
with the situation so, hopefully, Rio has been transformed since it | :18:46. | :18:46. | |
won the right to host the Olympics. New infrastructure given a face lift | :18:47. | :18:53. | |
after years of decay. The city's Mayor says it wouldn't | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
have happened without the Games. The Olympics was never about, | :18:58. | :19:00. | |
you know, let's solve So these are things that we face, | :19:01. | :19:02. | |
challenges that we still face and Many of the problems that have | :19:03. | :19:07. | |
inflicted Rio in the run-up to these Games will of course | :19:08. | :19:15. | |
remain once the athletes, But Brazilians love a party | :19:16. | :19:17. | |
and they love their sport and for the second time, | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
in just two years, this country has shown it's perfectly | :19:23. | :19:28. | |
capable of organising The longest, probably most | :19:29. | :19:30. | |
geographically diverse torch Designed to get this | :19:31. | :19:36. | |
huge sometimes sceptical And, on Friday, it all | :19:37. | :19:40. | |
returns here to Rio. Our sports correspondent Natalie | :19:41. | :19:46. | |
Pirks is at the Olympic Park in Rio, lots of optimism there, | :19:47. | :19:54. | |
but some controversy around one Yes. Lizzie Armitsead is Britain's | :19:55. | :20:13. | |
best chance, she won silver back in London 2012. This is how it | :20:14. | :20:20. | |
happened. Every athlete must tell an athlete where they will be. If you | :20:21. | :20:25. | |
miss three tests you face a two year ban. The Court of Arbitration for | :20:26. | :20:30. | |
Sport agreed with her that her fist missed test should be declared void | :20:31. | :20:36. | |
because the doping officer hadn't followed procedure. The rowers said | :20:37. | :20:40. | |
on Twitter that imagine what we would be saying if she was Russian. | :20:41. | :20:45. | |
She released a statement saying it had been an extremely difficult time | :20:46. | :20:48. | |
for her and her family am she added, "I have always been and will always | :20:49. | :20:54. | |
be a clean athlete." The International Olympic Committee | :20:55. | :20:57. | |
president called for a complete overhaul of the anti-doping system. | :20:58. | :21:01. | |
Really, that is the biggest problem facing the IOC on the eve of these | :21:02. | :21:06. | |
Games. To convince people that what they are about to see can be | :21:07. | :21:08. | |
believed. Natalie. Thank you. A group of MPs says the public | :21:09. | :21:16. | |
should be told which BBC stars are earning more than the ?143,000 | :21:17. | :21:20. | |
salary paid to the Prime Minister. The Commons Culture, | :21:21. | :21:22. | |
Media and Sport Committee, in response to Government's plans | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
for the Corporation, also recommends a separate | :21:28. | :21:28. | |
Six O'Clock News for Scotland. The BBC says it is considering | :21:29. | :21:31. | |
the idea and a decision will be made Part of a bridge has | :21:32. | :21:34. | |
collapsed in Leicestershire, causing major disruption to rail | :21:35. | :21:37. | |
services between the East Rubble from the bridge fell | :21:38. | :21:40. | |
onto rail tracks at Barrow The BBC understands that a passenger | :21:41. | :21:43. | |
train passed underneath the bridge A mother has called | :21:44. | :21:47. | |
on the Government to make the chicken pox vaccination free | :21:48. | :21:53. | |
for all after her toddler had what she says was | :21:54. | :21:55. | |
the "worst ever case." Jasper Allen spent five days | :21:56. | :22:00. | |
in hospital after severe sores, which covered his entire | :22:01. | :22:02. | |
body, became infected. The Department of Health | :22:03. | :22:06. | |
said its vaccination At the moment, the jab | :22:07. | :22:08. | |
is only available to Our correspondent, | :22:09. | :22:11. | |
Robert Hall, has the story. It started with mild discomfort and | :22:12. | :22:25. | |
ended like this. Sian Welby's brush with chicken pox led to five days in | :22:26. | :22:28. | |
hospital and such extreme pain that he couldn't bear to be picked up. | :22:29. | :22:33. | |
Today, he's almost back to normal, but his family are still reliving | :22:34. | :22:37. | |
the deterioration in his condition which took them to their local | :22:38. | :22:41. | |
casualty department. I walked into Accident Emergency and the | :22:42. | :22:46. | |
receptionist was gobsmacked when she saw how bad he was. A nurse came out | :22:47. | :22:51. | |
from behind and and was like - oh, my goodness he needs to be admitted. | :22:52. | :22:55. | |
The Friday night it was decided they would give him morphine because he | :22:56. | :23:00. | |
was just... You couldn't touch him. You couldn't go near him. He was | :23:01. | :23:05. | |
Kayleigh turned a agony. Corner, the spot is fading much you will not let | :23:06. | :23:10. | |
this go, are you? I want children of the future, their children's future | :23:11. | :23:12. | |
to be able to have the choice, to have the vaccination done so that | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
no-one - one child going through what he has been through is enough, | :23:17. | :23:20. | |
I think. At present the chicken pox vaccine is only offered to | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
individuals who have other underlying health issues. Use of | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
vaccines is constantly under review but at the moment natural immunity | :23:30. | :23:33. | |
is the preferred option. The problem with vaccinating against chicken pox | :23:34. | :23:37. | |
is that not all children would get the vaccine and then some might be | :23:38. | :23:41. | |
exposed to chicken pox later in life when it's a a much more severe | :23:42. | :23:47. | |
disease. It can be a much more severe and dangerous disease in | :23:48. | :23:50. | |
pregnant women. Sarah Allen believes she has a duty to provoking a change | :23:51. | :23:54. | |
of direction. It's not just chicken pox. How many more children need to | :23:55. | :24:03. | |
suffer, need... Before it's too late. Robert Hall, BBC News, | :24:04. | :24:06. | |
Westminster. Beautiful beaches, extraordinary | :24:07. | :24:12. | |
scenery and a school where the class But, the tiny Hebridean island | :24:13. | :24:16. | |
of Muck is having trouble recruiting a teacher for the start | :24:17. | :24:20. | |
of the new term. So parents have launched their own | :24:21. | :24:22. | |
online search for someone with a love of the outdoors who can | :24:23. | :24:25. | |
cope with the unique lifestyle this Our Scotland correspondent, | :24:26. | :24:28. | |
Lorna Gordon, has been to the Isle Meet David, Jasper, Daniel, Kitty, | :24:29. | :24:32. | |
Willow, Tara and Hugh - almost the entire school | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
roll on Muck. The new term starts in a fortnight | :24:39. | :24:42. | |
and they still needed a teacher, so their families have taken | :24:43. | :24:47. | |
to social media to try and sell I want a teacher that | :24:48. | :24:50. | |
knows how to garden. A teacher that knows | :24:51. | :24:59. | |
how to, you know, teach Have like a fun, imaginative | :25:00. | :25:01. | |
and happy teacher. Muck is the smallest of Scotland's | :25:02. | :25:09. | |
small isles, its one road a little You won't find a classroom | :25:10. | :25:14. | |
like this anywhere else. Idyllic in the summer sunshine, | :25:15. | :25:19. | |
but in winter very different. The island can get cut off, | :25:20. | :25:23. | |
sometimes for days, and the outgoing teacher says her replacement | :25:24. | :25:26. | |
will have to come prepared. Some days there's a short distance | :25:27. | :25:32. | |
from the school to the hall. Some days we wouldn't try that, | :25:33. | :25:41. | |
it would be too windy to risk taking So when we say, good waterproofs, | :25:42. | :25:44. | |
we mean really good waterproofs. The island's at the mercy | :25:45. | :25:49. | |
of the weather and the Atlantic waters - letters, food supplies | :25:50. | :25:56. | |
and the doctor all have There are other rural and remote | :25:57. | :25:59. | |
communities in Scotland which from time to time also have | :26:00. | :26:03. | |
problems recruiting a teacher and then getting | :26:04. | :26:05. | |
them to stay long-term. While there can be challenges | :26:06. | :26:09. | |
in a place like this, There's a very, very good strong | :26:10. | :26:11. | |
sense of community and everybody wants to, you know, everybody | :26:12. | :26:21. | |
helps each other out. The school is really, really central | :26:22. | :26:28. | |
to that. The children will have supply | :26:29. | :26:39. | |
teachers until a permanent They know here that island life | :26:40. | :26:42. | |
is not for everyone, but there's already been interest | :26:43. | :26:45. | |
from across the world They hope someone will fall in love | :26:46. | :26:47. | |
with Muck and its school. Lorna Gordon, BBC News, | :26:48. | :26:51. | |
on the Isle of Muck. Perfect advert there with the | :26:52. | :26:58. | |
glorious weather. It has been a miserable day for most of us. | :26:59. | :27:01. | |
Scotland saw the best of the weather. Butt beautiful picture in | :27:02. | :27:05. | |
the west highlands. It was a beautiful morning in Scotland. We | :27:06. | :27:09. | |
saw cloud and outbreaks of light rain that will continue this | :27:10. | :27:12. | |
evening. Look elsewhere, a miserable Tuesday for most of us. A lot of low | :27:13. | :27:17. | |
cloud, coastal fog towards Wales and the south-west. Not the best | :27:18. | :27:21. | |
afternoon on the beach, I'm sure. Through the night tonight we will | :27:22. | :27:25. | |
see outbreaks of rain drifting along the Channel coasts. It will be windy | :27:26. | :27:29. | |
here. Outbreaks of rain in Scotland and Northern Ireland. It will be a | :27:30. | :27:33. | |
mild, muggy night for all of us. Temperatures mid to high teens | :27:34. | :27:37. | |
perhaps. We start off tomorrow, the cloud will break up across England | :27:38. | :27:39. | |
and Wales. A different day in prospect. Low pressure moves into | :27:40. | :27:43. | |
the north-west. The winds will circumstance late around that low. | :27:44. | :27:46. | |
We will see unseasonably strong winds for this time of year, gusting | :27:47. | :27:55. | |
to 40mph or plus. A different story to the Scotland, outbreaks of rain. | :27:56. | :27:58. | |
The rain will continue into the afternoon in Northern Ireland, | :27:59. | :28:03. | |
north-west England. Gusts of winds in excess of had 0mph, the same to | :28:04. | :28:08. | |
Wales. The wind gusts pretty difficult for being out on an | :28:09. | :28:11. | |
inflatable perhaps or a light sailing vessel. Decent spells of | :28:12. | :28:15. | |
sunshine in the south-east. With it we will get warmth despite the wind. | :28:16. | :28:21. | |
24 Celsius, 75 Fahrenheit. Fresher further north and west with around | :28:22. | :28:26. | |
17 degrees. That low pressure will move off into the North Sea during | :28:27. | :28:32. | |
Wednesday night into Thursday. The winds will swing round to a nor | :28:33. | :28:36. | |
westerly. We will lose the humidity on Thursday. Thursday is more | :28:37. | :28:40. | |
straight-forward, sunny spells and scattered showers with highs of 23. | :28:41. | :28:47. | |
That's all from the BBC News at Six. Goodbye from me. | :28:48. | :28:48. |
