Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at 6. | :01:52. | :01:53. | |
A Muslim taxi driver from Bradford has been jailed for a minimum of 27 | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
years, for the religiously motivated murder of a Muslim | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
32-year-old Tanveer Ahmed drove two hundred miles from Yorkshire | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
to Scotland in March, where he stabbed Asad Shah to death. | :02:03. | :02:04. | |
He claimed Mr Shah had "disrespected" Islam in messages | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
The judge called his death "a barbaric, premeditated and wholly | :02:08. | :02:15. | |
unjustified killing of a much loved man who was a pillar | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
Our Scotland Correspondent Lorna Gordon is outside | :02:19. | :02:20. | |
Mr Shah was a s well-known and well liked shopkeeper. In this CCTV | :02:21. | :02:53. | |
footage from his shop he is seen con frnting him over his beliefs before | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
stabbing him to death in what the judge said in sentencing was infect | :02:59. | :03:05. | |
an excuse. This was a ut brute l, barbaric and horrific crime | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
resulting from intolerance and which led to the death of a wholly | :03:09. | :03:14. | |
innocent man who openingly expressed beliefs which differred from yours. | :03:15. | :03:21. | |
He attacked him because he believed he had disrespected Islam and had | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
claimed to be a prophet. He has throughout been unrepent are for his | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
crime. Today at the High Court in Glasgow he remained defiant in the | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
dock. As he was led away to begin his sentence he paused and looked to | :03:36. | :03:42. | |
his friends and family and shouted out a religious probg crow passion | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
they chanted in reply. His supporters, who had filled the | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
public gallery, said little as they left the court. The | :03:51. | :04:06. | |
Taking someone from such dear ones and yet you don't have any remorse | :04:07. | :04:13. | |
whatsoever. To be honest with you, you cease to be a human being at | :04:14. | :04:15. | |
that point. You don't have respect for | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
humanitarian at all. This is where we expect all the Muslim leaders to | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
stand up to condemn the action. Not just the murder. | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
many across Scotland were shocked at Asad Shah's murder. A vigil was held | :04:29. | :04:35. | |
in his memory. His family were not in court to hear his killer | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
sentenced because they feared for their safety. They originally moved | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
to Scotland because of persecution in Pakistan. Now they have decided | :04:45. | :04:46. | |
they must move again. Day four at the Rio Olympics with 15 | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
gold medals up for grabs. There are hopes of further success | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
in the pool after Tom Daley and Dan Goodfellow took bronze | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
in synchronised diving last night, and there are medal hopes | :04:56. | :04:57. | |
for Team GB in the women's Our Sports Correspondent Natalie | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
Pirks has all the latest from Rio. The agony and the ecstasy. It was a | :05:01. | :05:17. | |
night of mixed emotions for Team GB has some took bronze and some just | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
missed out. But in the diving, Tom Daley and Dan Goodfellow helped | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
Britain tenth in the medal table with their bronze. They'd only been | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
a partnership since October and they faced an agonising wait to see if | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
their final dive was good enough to bump them into third. They've done | :05:35. | :05:37. | |
it! CHEERING | :05:38. | :05:43. | |
With 22-year-old Tom Daley something of an Olympic veteran with three | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
Olympic games under his belt, Goodfellow told me his experience | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
has been valuable. When you are up there, the cheers are louder, the | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
atmosphere, you can feel it is more tense. He was telling me to stay in | :05:55. | :06:00. | |
the moment. Don't let things distract me. He's helped me a lot. | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
His experience has paid off in the partnership. This is what it sounds | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
like when Brazilians rejoice. What a magnificent moment in the marvellous | :06:11. | :06:18. | |
city. Silva became the first medallist of the country last night | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
and look at what it meant to them. From Rio's notorious city of God | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
have a look on as she faced inequality, poverty and racism | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
growing up. Her parents sending her to judo lessons to escape a life in | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
gangs. She has fought her way to a better life, literally. | :06:37. | :06:39. | |

children who do not believe they can leave that the -- leads favela. But | :06:42. | :06:51. | |
I did it and I conquered the world. Social media has gone crazy over | :06:52. | :06:59. | |
Michael Phelps' death stare. With his competitor shadow-boxing in | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
front of him he was not very pleased. Tonight they will do battle | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
in the final of the 200 metres butterfly and most likely break the | :07:07. | :07:16. | |
Internet. Unlucky. The Colombian weightlifter provided the most | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
emotional moment of the games so far when he won gold in the men's 62 | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
kilograms category. The outburst of emotion came because it was his last | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
shot at gold at his fourth Olympics. He symbolically removed his shoes to | :07:32. | :07:37. | |
signify the end of his career. Today Britain's Katherine Grainger made it | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
through to her fifth Olympic rowing final. She's back with a new | :07:42. | :07:44. | |
partner, Victoria Thornley, in the double sculls. A medal would be a | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
remarkable achievement. She took a two-year macro year break after | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
winning gold in London. -- two year break. It is the women's Tadhg | :07:54. | :07:59. | |
Enright in the gymnastics to see if they can win the first British | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
gymnastics medal since 1928. -- it is the women's's turn. They have | :08:05. | :08:11. | |
somebody going for their first of five projected gold medals tonight. | :08:12. | :08:14. | |
Meanwhile the world's fastest man, Usain Bolt, has said he wants | :08:15. | :08:17. | |
to join the pantheon of sporting greats - like Pele and Ali - | :08:18. | :08:20. | |
by winning more golds this year in Rio. | :08:21. | :08:22. | |
In an exclusive interview with the BBC, the six-time olympic | :08:23. | :08:24. | |
champion confirmed this will be his last Olympics, | :08:25. | :08:26. | |
Our Sports Editor Dan Roan has been to meet him. | :08:27. | :08:38. | |
Whether it's sprinting or samba, Usain Bolt | :08:39. | :08:39. | |
Sport's ultimate showman has been getting into the swing of things | :08:40. | :08:47. | |
here in Rio and at a time when controversy has cast a shadow | :08:48. | :08:50. | |
over the Olympics he told me he was ready to put a smile back | :08:51. | :08:53. | |
The Olympics needs you right now, doesn't it, do you sense that? | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
I think that sports has been going through a few things. | :08:58. | :09:06. | |
I definitely think sport definitely needs me and I need sport. | :09:07. | :09:09. | |
So I am just coming out here and doing the favour that it | :09:10. | :09:12. | |
But having burst onto the scene in Beijing eight years ago, | :09:13. | :09:21. | |
these are now Bolt's third and final Games. | :09:22. | :09:23. | |
And soon the Olympics will have to make do | :09:24. | :09:26. | |
It will be sad to leave the sport after so many years, | :09:27. | :09:33. | |
but I want to be a part of all this, trying to help to push it | :09:34. | :09:36. | |
We are going on the right road now to cleaning up the sport and make | :09:37. | :09:41. | |
Usain Bolt's long rivalry with the man the Jamaican beat | :09:42. | :09:44. | |
in the World Championships last year, Justin Gatlin, | :09:45. | :09:46. | |
a two times drugs cheat, has captivated the sports world | :09:47. | :09:49. | |
And he admits he doesn't have much of a relationship | :09:50. | :09:53. | |
I think after the championships we always have a conversation. | :09:54. | :10:01. | |
I try not to listen, I just try to move on, | :10:02. | :10:07. | |
You can say all you want, but if you can't back it up then | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
A global brand in his own right, Usain Bolt has twice now won Olympic | :10:14. | :10:18. | |
golds in the 100 metres, 200 metres, and relay. | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
Now targeting unprecedented triple trouble. | :10:22. | :10:23. | |
I want to be amongst the greats like Muhammad Ali, | :10:24. | :10:25. | |
So if I want to do that I have to show up and do that. | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
And enjoying himself is bound to be a part of it. | :10:31. | :10:35. | |
If Bolt is feeling the pressure of this, his last Olympics, | :10:36. | :10:37. | |
So on Day 4 of the Olympics, let's see how the medals | :10:38. | :10:43. | |
America is still in the lead with 19 medals in all - 5 of them gold. | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
China is second with 13 medals overall, also with 5 golds. | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
Australia with their 4 golds and 7 medals in total are in third place. | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
Further down the table is Great Britain in tenth place. | :10:57. | :11:04. | |
Earlier we heard how our gymnasts were going for gold later. | :11:05. | :11:07. | |
Britons have also been challenging for medals in Equestrian eventing, | :11:08. | :11:09. | |
rowing and in the semi-final of the C1 canoe slalom. | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
Team GB's David Florence is among the favourites for gold. | :11:13. | :11:14. | |
Our Sports Correspondent Andy Swiss is there. | :11:15. | :11:21. | |
Welcome to the Whitewater Stadium here in Rio where David Florence has | :11:22. | :11:28. | |
been going for Britain in the canoe slalom semifinals. Florence is one | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
of the favourites for gold. He is a world champion, he is the European | :11:35. | :11:37. | |
champion. He won silver in this event in Beijing in 2008. Hoping for | :11:38. | :11:44. | |
another medal here today. The top ten from the semifinals qualify for | :11:45. | :11:49. | |
the final later on. Florence is currently in sixth place. He has | :11:50. | :11:55. | |
qualified for tonight's final. He celebrated his 34th birthday | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
yesterday. What a present it would be for him if he could win an | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
Olympic medal later on. Thank you. You can follow all of the | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
action from Rio 2016 on the BBC with live coverage for the rest of the | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
evening and into the early hours of the morning across TV, radio and | :12:12. | :12:13. | |
online. An RAF helicopter has caught fire | :12:14. | :12:15. | |
after being forced to land The Ministry of Defence says | :12:16. | :12:17. | |
the Griffin training helicopter from RAF Valley in Anglesey made | :12:18. | :12:23. | |
a precautionary landing All five people on board managed | :12:24. | :12:26. | |
to leave the aircraft safely before Labour's Andy Burnham, | :12:27. | :12:32. | |
has been selected as their candidate to stand as the first elected Mayor | :12:33. | :12:36. | |
of Greater Manchester. The Mayor will have new powers | :12:37. | :12:41. | |
devolved from Whitehall to set He promised to fight | :12:42. | :12:43. | |
for a better deal for the people Andy Burnham hasn't been elected | :12:44. | :13:02. | |
Mayor already, but with Labour's dominance in nine out of ten of | :13:03. | :13:06. | |
greater Manchester's areas, including here in Salford, he is the | :13:07. | :13:11. | |
odds-on favourite. He said today that if he is elected next year he | :13:12. | :13:14. | |
will stand down as Shadow Home Secretary and as the MP for Lee. He | :13:15. | :13:19. | |
said it is a significant job. He has seen it as on a par with that of a | :13:20. | :13:23. | |
Cabinet minister, taking responsibility for millions of | :13:24. | :13:27. | |
pounds of money, devolved from Whitehall, four areas including | :13:28. | :13:38. | |
transport, housing, and the police. He said he wants, really, to use the | :13:39. | :13:41. | |
role to narrow the North South divide that Westminster, he says, | :13:42. | :13:43. | |
has failed the North of England. When asked about national politics, | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
and whether this nomination is vindication of his decision not to | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
attack Jeremy Corbyn he told me that on that matter he intends to remain | :13:52. | :13:53. | |
neutral. Thank you. | :13:54. | :13:56. | |
The United Nations has warned of dire consequences for two million | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
people living in the Syrian city of Aleppo unless there are repairs | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
to electricity and water supplies, damaged during fighting. | :14:03. | :14:06. | |
The UN's called for an immediate pause in fighting between | :14:07. | :14:08. | |
government and rebel forces, warning that children | :14:09. | :14:10. | |
are particularly at risk from waterborne diseases. | :14:11. | :14:11. | |
Here's our Diplomatic Correspondent James Robbins. | :14:12. | :14:16. | |
Aleppo has been fought over across four years, | :14:17. | :14:28. | |
but still neither Syrian government forces, nor the anti-Assad rebels, | :14:29. | :14:30. | |
Now the two million residents are at graver risk than ever. | :14:31. | :14:41. | |
Electricity and water pumping stations are so damaged | :14:42. | :14:44. | |
by bombardment the UN says ceasefires, even short ones, | :14:45. | :14:46. | |
are vital to allow in humanitarian supplies. | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
Clean water has been running for less than 24-hours, | :14:52. | :14:53. | |
These cuts are coming amid a heatwave, putting children | :14:54. | :15:04. | |
in Aleppo at grave risk of waterborne disease. | :15:05. | :15:06. | |
Getting clean water running again cannot wait | :15:07. | :15:08. | |
The battle for Aleppo is seen as critical to the eventual outcome | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
Aleppo is the country's largest city and was its commercial heart. | :15:14. | :15:20. | |
You can see the appalling deadlock very clearly. | :15:21. | :15:29. | |
The rebels, some western backed, others jihadi extremists, | :15:30. | :15:32. | |
still control substantial areas, shown here in orange. | :15:33. | :15:37. | |
But in the east of Aleppo they're all but encircled by Syrian | :15:38. | :15:40. | |
government forces, backed by Russia and by Iran. | :15:41. | :15:42. | |
An estimated quarter of a million people are trapped in the rebel held | :15:43. | :15:46. | |
Their crucial corridor for supplies, along the Castello Road, was cut off | :15:47. | :15:53. | |
last month then reopened by rebel action. | :15:54. | :15:54. | |
But overall this battle ebbs and flows with devastating consequences | :15:55. | :15:57. | |
Opposition fighters have been celebrating their ability to hang | :15:58. | :16:18. | |
on but, for now, Aleppo and its people are trapped | :16:19. | :16:20. | |
If the city does eventually fall it could be a pivotal moment | :16:21. | :16:25. | |
in the Civil War, which has made waste so much of Syria | :16:26. | :16:27. | |
A life sentence for the man who murdered a shopkeeper in Glasgow | :16:28. | :16:33. | |
Footballer, Paul Pogba, returns to Manchester United as the world's | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
Coming up in Olympic Sportsday at 6.30pm on BBC News, | :16:38. | :16:40. | |
we'll look ahead to British medal hopes on the fourth | :16:41. | :16:43. | |
It could be another nervy night for Team GB in the gymnastics. | :16:44. | :16:58. | |
They're the UK's highest mountains, but they're underwater. | :16:59. | :17:01. | |
Scientists have returned from an expedition exploring | :17:02. | :17:04. | |
the peaks of up to 1,700m off the West Coast of Scotland. | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
Their mission was to log the marine life around them and they think | :17:09. | :17:11. | |
Our science correspondent, Rebecca Morelle, has more. | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
Plunging hundreds of meters beneath the waves, a submarine heading | :17:17. | :17:19. | |
This expedition has revealed life there is thriving. | :17:20. | :17:31. | |
Coral grows in abundance on the mountain tops, | :17:32. | :17:35. | |
teeming with creatures in these cold, dark waters. | :17:36. | :17:41. | |
They're living on the UK's highest mountains. | :17:42. | :17:44. | |
The biggest is 1,700 meters tall, dwarfing Ben Nevis, | :17:45. | :17:49. | |
Located off the West Coast of Scotland, they were explored over | :17:50. | :17:55. | |
On board the ship, the scientists controlled the under water robots, | :17:56. | :18:05. | |
It's so exciting to do this type of research. | :18:06. | :18:12. | |
We see the sea floor coming out of the gloom and you don't know | :18:13. | :18:15. | |
This is the first time that anybody has seen this sea mount, | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
has seen the animals that live on this sea mount, | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
how they live, what they live on, in between, who lives with them. | :18:25. | :18:27. | |
Now the research ship is back, docked in Southampton | :18:28. | :18:32. | |
During their six weeks at sea scientists collected | :18:33. | :18:41. | |
thousands of samples, they're just being unloaded | :18:42. | :18:42. | |
now, but here's just a small selection of them. | :18:43. | :18:47. | |
We've got a coral species here that's possibly | :18:48. | :18:49. | |
This one here can grow several meters tall and a sponge with tiny | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
It's going to take months to analyse all of this, | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
but even now the team thinks that some of these species | :18:58. | :18:59. | |
The researchers say these sea mounts are a biodiversity hotspot. | :19:00. | :19:06. | |
Lots of people think of the deep sea as being a sort of desert | :19:07. | :19:10. | |
of mud and, in fact, these mountain structures | :19:11. | :19:14. | |
Now the hard work begins, the scientists need to work out | :19:15. | :19:24. | |
Understanding what's living on Britain's deep sea mountains | :19:25. | :19:29. | |
will be vital for protecting them in the future. | :19:30. | :19:31. | |
China has warned that Britain's future relationship with Beijing | :19:32. | :19:42. | |
could be jeopardised if the new Hinkley Point nuclear | :19:43. | :19:44. | |
The plant, in Somerset, is due to be built with financial | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
backing from the Chinese, but Downing Street | :19:50. | :19:51. | |
China's Ambassador to the UK says the move has brought the two | :19:52. | :19:56. | |
countries to a "crucial historical juncture." | :19:57. | :19:58. | |
Our China editor, Carrie Gracie, is in Beijing. | :19:59. | :20:01. | |
I think it is a serious threat, Sophie. Diplomats have been | :20:02. | :20:15. | |
muttering are or the past few days that the UK-China relationship seem | :20:16. | :20:19. | |
to be able to withstand the pressure of the Brexit vote. China handled | :20:20. | :20:25. | |
that OK. The hingy point delay is unnerving them. They are signalling | :20:26. | :20:30. | |
with this message from the Ambassador today, don't imagine, | :20:31. | :20:32. | |
British Government, you can make this on the basis of your domestic | :20:33. | :20:37. | |
energy policy alone or of a business decision alone. This is a strategic | :20:38. | :20:42. | |
decision with long-term implications for the UK-China relationship. The | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
Hinkley Point deal matters enormously to China in terms of its | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
global ambitions to export nuclear technology. If the UK was acting as | :20:53. | :20:56. | |
a good trusting showcase for that, that would have been one thing. If | :20:57. | :21:01. | |
the UK is starting to question, if there is even speculation about the | :21:02. | :21:06. | |
reliability of China as a nuclear partner, investor and provider of | :21:07. | :21:10. | |
technology, then what we've seen described as a golden age over the | :21:11. | :21:14. | |
last couple of years will quickly turn dark. Carrie, thank you. | :21:15. | :21:24. | |
140,000 students across Scotland have been receiving their exam | :21:25. | :21:26. | |
Figures suggest the serious problems with last year's Higher Maths exam | :21:27. | :21:33. | |
have been put right, while concerns over late changes | :21:34. | :21:35. | |
to the Higher English exam have proved to be unfounded. | :21:36. | :21:39. | |
At least 10 people have been injured, three of them seriously, | :21:40. | :21:42. | |
after an explosion destroyed a terraced house in | :21:43. | :21:44. | |
The blast caused the front and back of the house | :21:45. | :21:47. | |
It is understood a number of those injured were neighbours, | :21:48. | :21:51. | |
The cause of the explosion hasn't been established. | :21:52. | :21:56. | |
Britain's high street banks have been ordered to begin | :21:57. | :21:58. | |
a technological 'revolution' to ensure they offer | :21:59. | :22:00. | |
customers a better and more competitive service. | :22:01. | :22:02. | |
The Competition and Markets Authority has outlined plans | :22:03. | :22:04. | |
which it believes will shake up retail banking, including more use | :22:05. | :22:06. | |
Our personal business correspondent, Simon Gompertz, has the details. | :22:07. | :22:13. | |
Here's the carrot being dangled over current account customers - | :22:14. | :22:16. | |
?92 to be saved on average by switching accounts. | :22:17. | :22:22. | |
?180 for people who lose out most, those who slip into the red, | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
especially the ones like many in this London market, | :22:27. | :22:30. | |
including Patrick, who went beyond their overdraft limit. | :22:31. | :22:33. | |
The charges are really heavy, you know. | :22:34. | :22:36. | |
Like it always seems to mount up to like ?40 or ?60 any time you go | :22:37. | :22:40. | |
over your overdraft, which is kind of like kicking people | :22:41. | :22:42. | |
Jean, on the right, and her friend Gillan, | :22:43. | :22:48. | |
They just take your money and when you go to get money, | :22:49. | :22:55. | |
you don't have no money to survive on. | :22:56. | :22:57. | |
If you do an overdraft, you could face high charges, | :22:58. | :23:13. | |
but you're also likely to find that another cheaper bank | :23:14. | :23:17. | |
is reluctant to take you on and the Competition Authority | :23:18. | :23:19. | |
is concerned that you'd feel stuck and unable | :23:20. | :23:21. | |
Here's part of the answer, mobile phone apps. | :23:22. | :23:26. | |
Your bank would pass details of your transactions, | :23:27. | :23:35. | |
how you've used your account, to other banks and other apps, | :23:36. | :23:38. | |
with your permission, in the hope that they'd find | :23:39. | :23:40. | |
you a better account and even an instant overdraft. | :23:41. | :23:42. | |
This open data should help spur innovation, | :23:43. | :23:44. | |
provide a lot of new services that don't exist at the moment, | :23:45. | :23:46. | |
helping people manage their money, but there are definitely privacy | :23:47. | :23:49. | |
Your financial data is some of the most sensitive | :23:50. | :23:52. | |
data there is and people are going to want to have real | :23:53. | :23:55. | |
confidence that it doesn't get into the hands of the wrong people. | :23:56. | :23:58. | |
NEWS REEL: The changle of silver makes very sweet music | :23:59. | :24:00. | |
So from discreet, face-to-face service, to what's being called open | :24:01. | :24:04. | |
banking on mobile phones, but some say a straight-forward cap | :24:05. | :24:06. | |
Competition and technology and information helps certain | :24:07. | :24:13. | |
groups, but I don't think it's been proven that it helps the most | :24:14. | :24:16. | |
financially vulnerable and these are the people who are suffering | :24:17. | :24:19. | |
When internet-based open banking launches in two years' time, | :24:20. | :24:26. | |
it could provide yet another excuse to close them. | :24:27. | :24:29. | |
Four years ago, the French midfielder, Paul Pogba, | :24:30. | :24:38. | |
left Manchester United for ?1.5 million to join Juventus. | :24:39. | :24:48. | |
Today, United bought Pogba back for a world record transfer fee. | :24:49. | :24:51. | |
The 23-year-old's ?89 million move to Manchester United | :24:52. | :24:53. | |
It eclipsed the ?86 million paid by Real Madrid when it signed | :24:54. | :24:59. | |
Gareth Bale from Tottenham Hotspur in 2013 and the ?80 million | :25:00. | :25:02. | |
Real Madrid paid for Cristiano Ronaldo when he left | :25:03. | :25:04. | |
Manchester United four years earlier. | :25:05. | :25:07. | |
After tax, Pogba's take-home pay will be ?220,000 a week. | :25:08. | :25:11. | |
Katie Gornall reports from Old Trafford. | :25:12. | :25:16. | |
It's an unprecedented deal in a new era of Premier League excess. | :25:17. | :25:19. | |
Four years after he left Manchester United, Paul Pogba | :25:20. | :25:22. | |
returns as the world's most expensive footballer. | :25:23. | :25:25. | |
The transfer was finally confirmed after midnight via a series | :25:26. | :25:40. | |
Many supporters in England would have missed this, | :25:41. | :25:43. | |
but it came at the ideal time for the club's global | :25:44. | :25:46. | |
Pogba's return is a huge statement from Manchester United, | :25:47. | :25:49. | |
but it's also a significant moment for the Premier League. | :25:50. | :25:52. | |
It can already claim to be the home of the superstar managers, | :25:53. | :25:55. | |
now it's attracted one of the world's most famous players, | :25:56. | :25:58. | |
Pogba first join United in 2009 as a 16-year-old. | :25:59. | :26:04. | |
After just seven senior appearances, he rejected a new contract and moved | :26:05. | :26:07. | |
There he won four league titles before helping France | :26:08. | :26:13. | |
You could see that he had potential to be a really top player, | :26:14. | :26:20. | |
Potentially, he's 23, he's not the finished article. | :26:21. | :26:24. | |
I think Paul Scholes said it the other day, | :26:25. | :26:26. | |
this money is crazy for someone who's only 23 and not really yet | :26:27. | :26:30. | |
Manchester City have also spent big today with John Stones joining | :26:31. | :26:37. | |
It's still a fraction of what United paid to reclaim Pogba, | :26:38. | :26:43. | |
but their fans will hope he will prove to be worth | :26:44. | :26:45. | |
Katie Gornall, BBC News, Manchester. | :26:46. | :26:51. | |
Thank you. Not entirely plain sailing, boom, boom! Sunshine in the | :26:52. | :27:03. | |
sky. Big clouds, too. We have seen really, really heavy showers across | :27:04. | :27:06. | |
northern and eastern parts of the UK. They will linger, actually into | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
the night. Don't get caught out. Later on in the night we will see | :27:12. | :27:15. | |
dampness into Northern Ireland. In between, under clear skies, it will | :27:16. | :27:19. | |
turn quite fresh in rural areas lower than the numbers suggest. I | :27:20. | :27:25. | |
will concentrate on the glens of Scotland, north-eastern glens. | :27:26. | :27:28. | |
Around dawn we could get close to or below freezing. Unusual for the time | :27:29. | :27:31. | |
of year. Some of the best sunshine here. By the time most of us are up | :27:32. | :27:38. | |
the temperatures will bounce back. A damp start to Northern Ireland. The | :27:39. | :27:42. | |
rain will edge across the Irish Sea with time. Ahead of that, although | :27:43. | :27:46. | |
there will be one or two lingering showers a got good shunk of England | :27:47. | :27:50. | |
and Wales will have a reasonable start to the day with sunshine and | :27:51. | :27:54. | |
fairly light winds. It will feel comfortable out there if you are | :27:55. | :27:57. | |
journeying to work. With time I think the best of the sunshine will | :27:58. | :28:03. | |
become confined to eastern parts of UK this damp weather will cross the | :28:04. | :28:07. | |
Irish Sea. Dampness to western parts of the mainland. That will knock the | :28:08. | :28:10. | |
temperatures on the head. A cool feeling day for many of us, around | :28:11. | :28:14. | |
the mid teens. Maybe up to 20 degrees in the best of the sunshine | :28:15. | :28:20. | |
across the south-east. Fronts cross the country overnight, a damp start | :28:21. | :28:23. | |
to eastern areas. That will fade away. It will rain to the north-west | :28:24. | :28:28. | |
of Scotland. Best of the sunshine further south on Thursday. For the | :28:29. | :28:34. | |
north-west highlands in particular we could see 100 mm of rain, that | :28:35. | :28:38. | |
rain will linger into Friday before it clears away. The weekend looking | :28:39. | :28:42. | |
good. Sunshine, most will be dry. It will warm up. Hotting up through the | :28:43. | :28:44. | |
early parts of neck week. Thank you. That's all from the BBC News at Six, | :28:45. | :28:49. | |
so it's goodbye from me, | :28:50. | :28:52. |
