The first Olympic gold for Team GB as Adam Peaty triumphs in the pool. | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
COMMENTATOR: Absolutely fantastic, Adam Peaty takes the gold medal by | :00:11. | :00:17. | |
an absolute Street. The 21 year old even surprised | :00:18. | :00:19. | |
himself as he smashed his own world record to win the 100m breaststroke | :00:20. | :00:22. | |
- he called it the perfect race. I can't actually | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
believe it's happened. I'm going to have to slap myself, | :00:27. | :00:29. | |
I think, a few times. It's the first time a British man | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
has won an Olympic swimming title since Adrian Moorhourse | :00:33. | :00:35. | |

brought Britain's first gold Adam Peaty smashed his own world | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
record to win the 100m breaststroke The 21-year-old from Uttoxeter - | :01:50. | :01:56. | |
who as a child was afraid of water - said he was stunned by his triumph | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
and it was dream come true. Minutes later - Britain's Jazz | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
Carlin took silver in the women's 400 metre freestyle giving Team | :02:07. | :02:09. | |
GB their second medal of the games. From Rio, our Sports Editor, | :02:10. | :02:12. | |
Dan Roan, reports. As a boy, Adam Peaty was afraid of | :02:13. | :02:24. | |
the water, he certainly has conquered that fear now. No one in | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
history has ever swum faster, not in the 100 meter breaststroke, as he | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
closed in on Olympic glory, the battle was not with his rivals, but | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
against the clock. The gold mine represents his own world record, | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
like his opponents, it did not stand a chance. COMMENTATOR: This is | :02:45. | :02:51. | |
brilliant, fantastic, Adam Peaty takes the gold medal by a absolute | :02:52. | :02:57. | |
Street, wonderful world record. History will show he won in 53 point | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
seven seconds, but this is a triumph which has taken much longer than | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
that. It is surreal, to get Team GB's first gold but this is the | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
product of seven years hard work. I came here tonight, took the first 50 | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
and then came back with everything I've got. Everything that has got me | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
down in the last few years, but I've done this for my country and it | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
means so much to me. Back home this was a moment not be missed, his | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
swimming club in Derbyshire. And certainly not here in Uttoxeter, | :03:32. | :03:38. | |
where from her living room Mavis urged on her grandson. Back in Rio | :03:39. | :03:44. | |
Adam Peaty's parents left to wonder at how much their boy had grown up. | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
It really came to me when he was on the podium and the national anthem | :03:50. | :03:55. | |
was played. That brought tears to my eyes, I thought, oh my goodness, my | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
son is up there, because we have watched the Olympics before, but | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
never really imagined, even though I knew this was his dream and I | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
thought he would achieve it at some point, but not this soon. This was | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
the last time the British man won an Olympic swimming gold, Adrian | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
Moorhouse 20 is a go. Today he told me that Adam Peaty was in a class of | :04:15. | :04:22. | |
his own -- 28 years ago. He has got everything right, you search for the | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
perfect swing, I swam so many times in 15 years and I only did that | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
twice, and last night he managed to string it altogether. In just the | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
second day of competition Team GB did what was beyond them in London | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
2012, a gold medal in the swimming pool. Adam Peaty's astonishing | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
performance last night establishing him as one of his country's top | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
sports stars and these excess did not end there. Minutes after he | :04:48. | :04:55. | |
claimed his first -- the first medal for Team GB in the NMB games, Jazz | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
Carlin, winning silver medal in the 400 metres freestyle. I was sitting | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
watching Adam Brayton in world record and win the gold and that was | :05:04. | :05:10. | |
a special feeling -- braking. I had to stay relaxed and stay calm before | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
the race. I'm gobsmacked. I can't blame the time, as well. I'm so | :05:15. | :05:20. | |
happy. The most decorated Olympian Michael Phelps was at it again, | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
winning his 19th gold medal after helping the United States clinched | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
the four by 100 meter freestyle relay, but it was the one which Adam | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
Peaty held which set swimming a light and ignited Britain's medal | :05:32. | :05:33. | |
charge at these Olympics. So on Day 3 of the Olympics, | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
let's see how the medals America is off to an early lead, | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
with a haul of 12 medals - Italy and China are | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
in second and third - both with three golds too - | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
and eight medals overall. Further down the table | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
is Great Britain - in eighth place. So with all to play for, | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
here's our correspondent Natalie Pirks with a round up | :05:57. | :05:58. | |
of the best of the day's Conditions were so choppy that the | :05:59. | :06:09. | |
rowing was cancelled yesterday, and today it was all calm, just not for | :06:10. | :06:16. | |
Kazakhstan. No issues for Britain's men's eight one fine for the final | :06:17. | :06:19. | |
with a best time. It is all looking very good with Team GB and the | :06:20. | :06:26. | |
rowing side. Remarkably Olympic champions Helen Glover and Heather | :06:27. | :06:29. | |
Stanning have not lost a single race in five years, but Denmark gave them | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
a real run for their money in the heats of the women's pair. Well, by | :06:34. | :06:41. | |
gosh, don't they live for it? Plenty of thrills and spills in the | :06:42. | :06:50. | |
eventing today. William Fox Pitt was leading the individual competition | :06:51. | :06:52. | |
for Great Britain after the dressage and he and his stallion picked up | :06:53. | :07:00. | |
penalties in the cross-country. Remarkable that he is even riding at | :07:01. | :07:06. | |
all, given just ten months ago the 47-year-old was in and injures | :07:07. | :07:10. | |
Tacoma after suffering a head trauma enabled -- was in an induced coma. | :07:11. | :07:19. | |
It is great to be up there, and to clock it up, that is a blow, but I | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
hope it is OK, life goes on, so far Team GB are not doing what we dreamt | :07:26. | :07:32. | |
of. The Dutch cyclist involved in a sickening crash in the women's road | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
race yesterday has tweeted from her hospital bed and she said she is now | :07:37. | :07:39. | |
in the hospital with injuries and fractures but will be fine. | :07:40. | :07:45. | |
She has given Michelle Obama a fencing lesson but this was her life | :07:46. | :07:58. | |
defining moment. Becoming team USA's first Hijbab wearing Olympian. Here | :07:59. | :08:08. | |
at the gymnastics we are hours away the men's all-round team final. | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
London was a watershed moment for British gymnastics, the men winning | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
bronze, and last year they went one better winning silver at the World | :08:18. | :08:19. | |
Championships and they are expected to get a medal but they only managed | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
fifth place in qualification and that means they will start on the | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
rings and end on the pommel, which is not ideal, but they have pommel | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
horse specialists including Whitlock. Hopefully they will save | :08:33. | :08:35. | |
the best for last. It's the longest rail strike | :08:36. | :08:39. | |
in Britain since 1968. Hundreds of thousands of rail | :08:40. | :08:41. | |
commuters suffered major disruption today as a five day | :08:42. | :08:43. | |
strike by Southern Rail The company, Govia Thameslink - | :08:44. | :08:45. | |
which runs services between London and Sussex and Surrey - | :08:46. | :08:50. | |
is embroiled in a row with the RMT union over plans to remove | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
conductors from trains. I've been doing this for about 20 | :08:57. | :08:58. | |
years and this is the worst They are cancelled and delayed every | :08:59. | :09:14. | |
single day, it is ridiculous. Delays, cancellations and | :09:15. | :09:24. | |
overcrowding have become routine. Even a first-class ticket does | :09:25. | :09:25. | |
not guarantee a seat. Each evening we don't get home, we | :09:26. | :09:33. | |
are delayed for an hour, two hours, on a 40 minute maid. Maybe I will | :09:34. | :09:38. | |
get to see the kids before I get home to die, maybe I won't. -- | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
before I get home tonight. It is all down to people | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
who are at best incompetent. This is what the dispute | :09:48. | :09:54. | |
is all about, who should Southern wants the drivers to do | :09:55. | :09:58. | |
it so the guards can But the guards' union | :09:59. | :10:01. | |
is worried that will mean There are also concerns | :10:02. | :10:04. | |
about safety, even though many trains operate already | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
with just a driver. We want to make a change to improve | :10:09. | :10:10. | |
services to customers, to get staff on board to be able | :10:11. | :10:13. | |
to better look after our customers and give them a better service | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
and the RMT are finding that very Last month the company cut 350 | :10:17. | :10:30. | |
trains from their timetables because of problems, and today they reckon | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
60% of their services have run, but the frustration of passengers was | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
voiced on the picket line. RMT has done everything it possibly can to | :10:42. | :10:47. | |
minimise the inconvenience but customers who have to suffer lies | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
being told by the company -- for customers. What about a five-day | :10:52. | :10:57. | |
strike? They have had to suffer a terrible service provided by this | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
train company. This evening commuters march into uncertainty | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
once again. I'm going to three bridges rather than little Haven | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
which is where I live and my parents are having to pick me up. There are | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
no trains running from my own station and so I've got to get a bus | :11:14. | :11:18. | |
from the station I am getting back to, so not good. And there is the | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
possibility of more strikes, this is not a happy railway. | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
The Labour leadership contest has been thrown into confusion | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
A judge found in favour of five new party members who had accused | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
the Labour's National Executive Committee of freezing them out | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
Here's our political correspondent, Alex Forsyth. | :11:41. | :11:50. | |
As he campaigns across the country, the momentum behind | :11:51. | :11:53. | |
And now another boost for his bid to keep his job. | :11:54. | :12:00. | |
The High Court has ruled thousands of new Labour members can vote | :12:01. | :12:03. | |
It's not clear, but most are thought to back this man. | :12:04. | :12:11. | |
There are now 540,000 people in Britain who are members | :12:12. | :12:13. | |
The judge seems very clear that his decision was that all members of the | :12:14. | :12:26. | |
party have a right to vote in the leadership contest and surely that | :12:27. | :12:28. | |
has to be the right decision. The Labour Party's ruling committee | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
had said any member who joined after the 12th of January | :12:33. | :12:35. | |
could not have a say, affecting almost 127,000 | :12:36. | :12:40. | |
people, about a quarter Now, the court has said | :12:41. | :12:41. | |
the new joiners can vote. Like Christine, one of five people | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
who took the case to court, she joined Labour in June | :12:47. | :12:49. | |
because of its current leader. And you know that what he says, he's | :12:50. | :12:51. | |
actually going to deliver on it. How do you feel you can | :12:52. | :13:00. | |
now vote for him? Really happy, because that is | :13:01. | :13:03. | |
what we joined up for. But the challenger is still upbeat, | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
convinced he has support and calling Labour wants to be a mass | :13:09. | :13:11. | |
movement and at our best We should be nothing other | :13:12. | :13:18. | |
than pleased that there are so many people taking part in what is | :13:19. | :13:24. | |
an incredible democratic exercise. I'm just going to carry on doing | :13:25. | :13:26. | |
what I'm doing. The fact a court had to rule | :13:27. | :13:32. | |
on an internal Labour matter is a sign of just how troubled | :13:33. | :13:35. | |
the party is. This decision could be appealed, | :13:36. | :13:37. | |
but if the ruling stands it is likely it could bolster | :13:38. | :13:41. | |
Jeremy Corbyn's chance of victory, and if he is re-elected leader it | :13:42. | :13:48. | |
will only deepen divisions. For all of his support, | :13:49. | :13:51. | |
many MPs think Labour is unelectable under his leadership and some fear | :13:52. | :13:53. | |
this contest could cause a split. There are tough times ahead | :13:54. | :13:56. | |
for the party. STUDIO: At least 70 people have been | :13:57. | :14:04. | |
killed in a suicide bombing in the explosion in | :14:05. | :14:07. | |
the city of Quetta. Many of the victims | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
were lawyers and journalists. A faction of the Pakistani Taliban | :14:13. | :14:14. | |
said it was behind the attack. Police investigating the murder | :14:15. | :14:19. | |
of the black teenager, Stephen Lawrence in 1993, | :14:20. | :14:21. | |
have released a new photograph of a witness and have appealed | :14:22. | :14:23. | |
for him to come forward. The image has been digitally | :14:24. | :14:26. | |
enhanced from a CCTV camera. 18 year old Stephen was stabbed | :14:27. | :14:28. | |
to death in an unprovoked racist attack as he waited at a bus stop | :14:29. | :14:31. | |
in South East London. Our home affairs correspondent, | :14:32. | :14:37. | |
Tom Symonds is at Scotland Yard. Two men jailed in | :14:38. | :14:39. | |
2012 for his murder, why are the police issuing | :14:40. | :14:41. | |
this photo now? They believe that four other men | :14:42. | :14:50. | |
were involved and they are still investigating, back in 1993, the | :14:51. | :14:53. | |
used evidence from witnesses to produce and even it image of a man | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
with a distinctive the shape on the back of his jacket. -- e-Fit. They | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
have gone on to release CCTV footage which apparently came to light in | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
2014 after a review of the case. V-shape. That shows a man in a wine | :15:07. | :15:12. | |
shop, an off-licence, again with a distinctive V-shape on the back of | :15:13. | :15:16. | |
his jacket, that image has been digitally and harm. What police are | :15:17. | :15:21. | |
trying to do is work out if he is the same man that witnesses | :15:22. | :15:24. | |
described and is portrayed in that e-Fit picture and they would like to | :15:25. | :15:30. | |
know if he could say anything at all about the murder of Stephen | :15:31. | :15:31. | |
Lawrence. The first gold for team GB | :15:32. | :15:35. | |
at the Rio Olympics, as Adam Peaty smashes his own world | :15:36. | :15:41. | |
record in the 100m breaststroke. he's hailed a hero | :15:42. | :15:44. | |
by the family of the teenager Do you know how many calories | :15:45. | :15:52. | |
you consume every day? Large numbers of Britons are under | :15:53. | :16:28. | |
estimating how much they eat, according to a new study Four | :16:29. | :16:35. | |
minutes of this and you And the problem is it's affecting | :16:36. | :16:43. | |
how the government tackles the big problem of obesity. Official | :16:44. | :16:47. | |
statistics show that the number of calories people say they're eating | :16:48. | :16:49. | |
at home has gone down over the years. Yet - over the same period - | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
figures show that overall the number of people across the UK who are | :16:54. | :16:56. | |
obese has risen. So what's going wrong? Here's our Health Editor Hugh | :16:57. | :17:02. | |
But working at the right diet and the correct exercise | :17:03. | :17:07. | |
to manage our weight is never straightforward. | :17:08. | :17:09. | |
As I discovered this lunchtime, but many of us know how many | :17:10. | :17:11. | |
Chicken Caesar salad with a Coke. And that's about it. | :17:12. | :17:17. | |
And how many calories in that? I've no idea, I'm afraid. | :17:18. | :17:19. | |
What have you had to eat and drink for lunch? | :17:20. | :17:24. | |
Tuna salad, chocolate bar, bag of crisps and a can of Coke. | :17:25. | :17:27. | |
How many calories in that? I've no idea. | :17:28. | :17:28. | |
Do you know roughly how many calories you eat each day? | :17:29. | :17:32. | |
LAUGHTER I try not to look because I find, I have gone | :17:33. | :17:36. | |
through stages of counting calories, for a couple of weeks, | :17:37. | :17:39. | |
and I become a bit obsessed and I don't think it | :17:40. | :17:41. | |
For tackling obesity the calculations are important, | :17:42. | :17:51. | |
for example, the 200 calories in a standard chocolate bar are used | :17:52. | :17:54. | |
up after 42 minutes of walking or 22 if you run. | :17:55. | :17:56. | |
There are 172 calories in a bowl of cereal and that takes 31 minutes | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
a blueberry muffin has 265 calories, which will take 48 minutes of | :18:01. | :18:12. | |
walking, 25 of running. The report today says that official figures on | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
calorie intake are too low, because we underestimate or are not honest | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
about what we eat and drink. The authors of the reports say that | :18:22. | :18:24. | |
working out in the gym and other types of exercise are important, for | :18:25. | :18:29. | |
policy makers trying to tackle obesity what really counts is what | :18:30. | :18:32. | |
people eat and getting them to cut the calories. The advice is, if you | :18:33. | :18:38. | |
are looking to reduce obesity, calorie consumption is a really | :18:39. | :18:43. | |
important place to look first, there are other things, like physical | :18:44. | :18:45. | |
activity, but calorie consumption will make a real difference. That | :18:46. | :18:51. | |
advice comes with a government obesity strategy due within the next | :18:52. | :18:53. | |
few months, there are important choices to be made and it is likely | :18:54. | :18:59. | |
to focus as much on food and how it is marketed as it will on fitness. | :19:00. | :19:10. | |

inside Syria, British special forces helping to defend a Syrian rebel | :19:36. | :19:38. | |
base from the so-called Islamic State. They are a small but lethal | :19:39. | :19:44. | |
force, only a dozen men. The threat here is grave, they have come laden | :19:45. | :19:48. | |
with weaponry, to fight their way out of any trouble. These exclusive | :19:49. | :19:53. | |
pictures obtained by the BBC are from June, immediately after a Isis | :19:54. | :19:58. | |
attack killed nine moderate Syrian rebels at this space. An ISI suicide | :19:59. | :20:08. | |
attack just yesterday. -- after a IS. The new Syrian army again for | :20:09. | :20:16. | |
them. Their spokesman, who does not want to be identified, will not | :20:17. | :20:19. | |
comment on pictures of British special forces. But he does | :20:20. | :20:26. | |
acknowledge their help. TRANSLATION: We are receiving special forces | :20:27. | :20:30. | |
training from British and American partners and getting weapons and | :20:31. | :20:34. | |
equipment from the Pentagon, as well as our support. -- air support. Here | :20:35. | :20:45. | |
it is in action, an American fighter taking out another IS car bomb. On | :20:46. | :20:50. | |
more than one occasion, British racial forces have crossed the | :20:51. | :20:53. | |
border here in Jordan but further east of here into Syria to help the | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
new Syrian army, few groups have received such close and personal | :20:58. | :21:01. | |
support, from Britain and from America. That closeness has led to | :21:02. | :21:06. | |
ridicule from the Islamic State, and there has been setbacks on the | :21:07. | :21:09. | |
battlefield, but still, this small band of fighters continues to | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
endure, and continues to receive intensive support from the West. | :21:15. | :21:19. | |
After viewing these pictures, the Ministry of Defence said that it | :21:20. | :21:22. | |
would not comment on special forces operations, these soldiers unlike | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
conventional troops do not need parliamentary approval to be | :21:28. | :21:30. | |
deployed, the numbers may be small, on the front lines and the fight | :21:31. | :21:33. | |
against the Islamic State, they are making a difference. | :21:34. | :21:40. | |
STUDIO: A brief look at some of the day's other | :21:41. | :21:43. | |
A 17,000-tonne drilling rig has run aground after being blown ashore | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
The Trans-ocean Winner, which has diesel on board, | :21:49. | :21:51. | |
was under tow west of Lewis when it was hit by severe storms | :21:52. | :21:54. | |
Stornoway Coastguard said there were no personnel | :21:55. | :21:57. | |
on board the rig and there was no risk to life. | :21:58. | :21:59. | |
The search for two teenagers missing off the Welsh coast is expected | :22:00. | :22:02. | |
got into difficulty in the water at Barmouth beach | :22:03. | :22:07. | |
They were part of a group of about 500 visitors | :22:08. | :22:10. | |
from the Somali and Yemeni communities in Birmingham. | :22:11. | :22:19. | |
The Catholic priest, Dr Edward Daly, who famously waved a blood-covered | :22:20. | :22:21. | |
handkerchief in TV footage of the Bloody Sunday shootings | :22:22. | :22:24. | |
Dr Daly helped lead protestors to safety in Londonderry | :22:25. | :22:27. | |
in the news footage which was shown around the world. | :22:28. | :22:30. | |
He later served as the Bishop of Derry, as our Ireland Correspondent, | :22:31. | :22:33. | |
VOICEOVER: In this city's history of conflict, there is no event more | :22:34. | :22:49. | |
notorious than bloody Sunday. No image more iconic than this, a | :22:50. | :22:53. | |
Catholic priest, waving a blood-soaked handkerchief, as people | :22:54. | :22:58. | |
tried to carry a teenager to safety. The footage of Dr Edward Daly | :22:59. | :23:03. | |
holding a symbol of ceasefire cut through the violence of troubled | :23:04. | :23:08. | |
years, to shock people about what was happening in Northern Ireland. | :23:09. | :23:19. | |
He did not have a weapon... Just a young boy of 15, he was running, I | :23:20. | :23:24. | |
was running. 13 people were shot dead by British soldiers on that day | :23:25. | :23:30. | |
in Derry, in January, 1972. Dr Edward Daly's attempt to save Jackie | :23:31. | :23:36. | |
is something that his family say they will always be grateful for. He | :23:37. | :23:41. | |
was with Jackie in his dying moments, he was a hero that day, | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
let's face it. He tried to attend to Jackie. After almost 20 years as | :23:47. | :23:52. | |
Bishop, he was awarded the freedom of the city, near years remembered | :23:53. | :23:56. | |
not just for that moment, when he was caught in the middle of gunfire, | :23:57. | :24:00. | |
but his long work afterwards, for peace. | :24:01. | :24:08. | |

Gaming is an industry that's worth 70 billion pounds worldwide. | :24:14. | :24:15. | |
Some of the biggest titles such as Grand Theft auto and more | :24:16. | :24:18. | |
recently Pokemon Go have enjoyed more financial success than most | :24:19. | :24:21. | |
The UK has its own video-games version of Hollywood | :24:22. | :24:24. | |
that's given birth to a host of the biggest gaming | :24:25. | :24:26. | |
Forget Los Angeles, as far as games design is concerned, Guildford is | :24:27. | :24:48. | |
where it is at, these tiny offices are the home of Hello Games, they | :24:49. | :24:53. | |
are about to release one of the most anticipated games of the year, it | :24:54. | :24:58. | |
could be Britain's latest video game blockbuster, if all goes as | :24:59. | :24:59. | |
predicted. VOICEOVER: It is a game | :25:00. | :25:06. | |
where players can explore strange Flying around a universe so big it | :25:07. | :25:09. | |
would take billions of years Most video games these days are made | :25:10. | :25:13. | |
by movie-sized teams. What is most surpising about this | :25:14. | :25:20. | |
ambitious slice of sci-fi simulation is that just 11 designers have | :25:21. | :25:22. | |
employed clever programming techniques to create | :25:23. | :25:24. | |
this huge title. We do, we use the computer | :25:25. | :25:26. | |
to build it. We create a bunch of rules, a set | :25:27. | :25:28. | |
of maths, the computer runs that. We effectively teach the computer | :25:29. | :25:31. | |
the rules that we think we need to build a universe and the computer | :25:32. | :25:34. | |
goes off and builds it for you. This town is something of a hotbed | :25:35. | :25:42. | |
of games design talent. the brains behind the | :25:43. | :25:49. | |
Little Big Planet series of titles who are based | :25:50. | :26:01. | |
just around the corner. And several instalments | :26:02. | :26:03. | |
of the Need For Speed series were also created locally | :26:04. | :26:06. | |
by a company called Criterion. But both of those companies have | :26:07. | :26:08. | |
been purchased by huge foreign games outfits and there is some worry that | :26:09. | :26:11. | |
Britain's brightest talent I think we see a lot of foreign | :26:12. | :26:13. | |
investment and I think we will see | :26:14. | :26:16. | |
more from the likes of China. In one sense it is a very positive | :26:17. | :26:19. | |
thing. The message that the UK has | :26:20. | :26:21. | |
the best individuals and creative talent in the world | :26:22. | :26:23. | |
is getting through internationally. has been described as | :26:24. | :26:27. | |
a cottage industry by some, while others believe | :26:28. | :26:31. | |
the small size of its games studios makes them more nimble | :26:32. | :26:33. | |
and more innovative. Size, in other words, | :26:34. | :26:35. | |
isn't everything. Though the creators of the enormous | :26:36. | :26:38. | |
No Man's Sky game will hope this doesn't | :26:39. | :26:42. | |
apply to them. It has been a good day for drying | :26:43. | :27:03. | |
your washing, blue sky, sunshine, blustery wind, thank you very much, | :27:04. | :27:09. | |
for this picture from Lancashire, the breeze has an edge to it, it has | :27:10. | :27:14. | |
been cold enough for snow showers, at the peaks of the Highlands, | :27:15. | :27:18. | |
strongest of the wind fading, still quite blustery and still lumpy | :27:19. | :27:22. | |
cloud, much of the cloud will dissolve away, leaving a finite, | :27:23. | :27:26. | |
showers will keep going, particularly across the West, | :27:27. | :27:30. | |
foremost, it will be a chilly night, that is the main story tonight, | :27:31. | :27:33. | |
temperatures well down into single figures quite widely, and perhaps as | :27:34. | :27:38. | |
low as three or in some Highland glens, unusually cool for the time | :27:39. | :27:42. | |
of year. A nip in the error first thing, sunshine to greet the new | :27:43. | :27:45. | |
day, already showers filtering down across northern England and we will | :27:46. | :27:47. | |
see showers turning more widespread than today across northern parts of | :27:48. | :27:51. | |
the country, the best of the sunshine tomorrow, further south, | :27:52. | :27:57. | |
snapshot, mid afternoon, in a zone from south-west Scotland, across the | :27:58. | :28:01. | |
borders, into parts of north-west England, stream of sharp showers | :28:02. | :28:06. | |
keeping temperatures down. Further south, brighter, warmer, | :28:07. | :28:09. | |
particularly across parts of south Wales, much of the Midlands, East | :28:10. | :28:12. | |
Anglia and southern England, feeling quite pleasant, wind lighter and | :28:13. | :28:18. | |
plenty of sunshine into the low 20s. Fast forward to Wednesday, more | :28:19. | :28:22. | |
clout in the sky for many, particularly out West, sporadic | :28:23. | :28:26. | |
outbreaks of rain drifting, best of the brightness will be across | :28:27. | :28:32. | |
eastern areas, called start, most of us stuck in the mid to high teams, | :28:33. | :28:35. | |
squeaking a 20 and the best of the brightness across the south-east, | :28:36. | :28:39. | |
called start to the week, for sure, particularly in the breeze, some | :28:40. | :28:45. | |
rain around, especially out West, a hint of things warmed up as we head | :28:46. | :28:48. | |
towards the weekend, that could well be a sign of things to come. | :28:49. | :28:53. | |
