:00:15. > :00:20.He'd used social media to encourage supporters to back IS

:00:21. > :00:22.Those speeches and the material he posted was used

:00:23. > :00:28.Among his followers, Michael Adebolajo -

:00:29. > :00:30.one of the men who murdered Fusilier Lee Rigby

:00:31. > :00:41.We will have the latest from the Old Bailey.

:00:42. > :00:44.Also tonight - Sailing to gold - Giles Scott will be crowned Olympic

:00:45. > :00:46.champion this evening in the finn-class sailing

:00:47. > :00:48.High hopes in the velodrome tonight for Britain's golden couple,

:00:49. > :00:51.as Laura Trott and Jason Kenney attempt to cycle into

:00:52. > :00:55.A 52-year-old man is killed after being attacked by a dog that

:00:56. > :01:02.had been returned to its owner - despite concerns it was dangerous.

:01:03. > :01:05.The cost of living on the rise - higher petrol prices helped push

:01:06. > :01:06.inflation up further than expected last month.

:01:07. > :01:09.And taking flight - scientists blame the decline of wild

:01:10. > :01:12.bees in England on the use of controversial pesticides.

:01:13. > :01:15.And coming up in the sport on BBC News:

:01:16. > :01:17.Nicola Adams began the defence of her Olympic boxing title

:01:18. > :01:20.by guaranteeing at least a bronze, as she reached the semi-finals

:01:21. > :01:48.Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six.

:01:49. > :01:50.The radical British-born preacher Anjem Choudary has been found guilty

:01:51. > :01:52.of inviting support for so called Islamic State.

:01:53. > :01:55.Another man was convicted of the same offence.

:01:56. > :01:58.The Crown Prosecution service said the pair had used the power

:01:59. > :02:00.of social media to try to influence their followers -

:02:01. > :02:03.including the young and the vulnerable.

:02:04. > :02:06.The men were found guilty three weeks ago at a trial

:02:07. > :02:09.at the Old Bailey, but for legal reasons the media has been unable

:02:10. > :02:15.Here's our home affairs correspondent June Kelly

:02:16. > :02:17.The whole world, one day, my dear brothers,

:02:18. > :02:23.Including Hackney, and Walthamstow, and Moscow, and New York.

:02:24. > :02:25.All of the countries, inshallah, under the

:02:26. > :02:36.Anjem Choudary has long been a provocative figure.

:02:37. > :02:39.For years, the police and intelligence agencies

:02:40. > :02:45.have been monitoring his movements and speeches.

:02:46. > :02:48.He knew this and, as a trained lawyer, he knew how to stay

:02:49. > :02:51.on the right side of the law - until now.

:02:52. > :02:56.If you look at his influence and the impact, that was then

:02:57. > :02:58.available to people across the world.

:02:59. > :03:01.Without a doubt, those speeches and material he posted was used

:03:02. > :03:10.In my view, the UK is a safer place with him behind bars.

:03:11. > :03:13.Choudary has now been convicted of inviting support for so-called

:03:14. > :03:20.The jury wasn't told that one of his keenest followers,

:03:21. > :03:26.Siddhartha Dhar, fled the UK while on bail and is joined IS.

:03:27. > :03:29.He is suspected of being the new "Jihadi John",

:03:30. > :03:34.Dhar posted this picture of himself when he arrived in Syria.

:03:35. > :03:39.His newborn son in one arm, an AK-47 in the other.

:03:40. > :03:42.The injustice, and the oppression done to the Muslim community

:03:43. > :03:48.And amongst others to fall under Anjem Choudary's spell

:03:49. > :03:53.He was one of the pair that went on to murder Fusilier Lee Rigby

:03:54. > :03:59.Muslims are dying daily by British soldiers.

:04:00. > :04:01.Richard Dart was another Anjem Choudary disciple.

:04:02. > :04:11.Here, Choudary was actually converting him to Islam.

:04:12. > :04:18.Three years ago, Dart was jailed for terrorism offences.

:04:19. > :04:20.As a film-maker, his brother met the radical preacher

:04:21. > :04:31.He's kind of like a father figure to these young guys,

:04:32. > :04:35.He radicalises people, he indoctrinates them

:04:36. > :04:42.Choudary wasn't always so anti-Western.

:04:43. > :04:45.As a student, he liked to drink and wasn't offended by pictures

:04:46. > :04:52.But from his 20s, he became a political zealot.

:04:53. > :04:54.Anjem Choudary delivered his speeches on streets like this,

:04:55. > :04:59.Down the years, he's been linked to countless extremists,

:05:00. > :05:06.But he was never charged with any serious offence.

:05:07. > :05:12.It was the conflict in Syria which changed this.

:05:13. > :05:15.In the summer of 2014, the IS leadership declared

:05:16. > :05:20.the establishment of an Islamic state.

:05:21. > :05:22.Choudary pledged an oath of allegiance to it and, in talks,

:05:23. > :05:28.The leader who relished being at the centre of events,

:05:29. > :05:34.and had been a teacher to so many, had crossed the legal line.

:05:35. > :05:36.Anjem Choudary, in his police custody picture.

:05:37. > :05:47.After two decades, his inflammatory rhetoric has finally been silenced.

:05:48. > :05:53.Well, Sophie, the reason we can now report this verdict is because a

:05:54. > :05:58.separate trial ended here today of a group of men who had been convicted

:05:59. > :06:01.of a similar offence. When this Choudhary verdict was brought in,

:06:02. > :06:05.you could almost feel the wave of relief running through Scotland

:06:06. > :06:09.Yard, through Westminster, to the headquarters of the security

:06:10. > :06:13.service, MI5. Anjem Choudary fought this prosecution. He went to court

:06:14. > :06:18.and tried unsuccessfully to have it stopped. When the jury brought in

:06:19. > :06:22.the guilty verdict, this man, who has always been so animated and

:06:23. > :06:26.vocal, he showed no emotion at all and he was led from the dock, down

:06:27. > :06:28.the steps and taken to prison. He will be back at the Old Bailey next

:06:29. > :06:31.month for sentencing. To Rio now where Team

:06:32. > :06:33.GB are guaranteed yet another gold medal -

:06:34. > :06:35.this time in the finn-class sailing after Giles Scott put in such

:06:36. > :06:37.a stunning performance And there are high hopes

:06:38. > :06:43.for Great Britain in the velodrome tonight - with the golden couple

:06:44. > :07:01.Laura Trott and Jason Kenney The coronation of Britain's new king

:07:02. > :07:06.of the waves. This was the moment at the weekend when Giles Scott knew he

:07:07. > :07:10.was guaranteed gold. With his final race in a few hours, it will be

:07:11. > :07:15.official. He was overlooked at London 2012 for Sir Ben Ainslie, but

:07:16. > :07:19.Britain's greatest Olympic sailor has a worthy successor. It's an

:07:20. > :07:24.amazing achievement by Giles. Totally dominant performance,

:07:25. > :07:29.really. The first race, I can relate to that from my own Olympics as

:07:30. > :07:33.being a bit of a struggle. After that, he really dominated the field.

:07:34. > :07:38.The fact he has won gold without even having to compete in the medal

:07:39. > :07:42.race, it is not unheard of in Olympic sailing, but it is quite

:07:43. > :07:46.rare. Here is another man that had to wait. Mark Cavendish, the elusive

:07:47. > :07:50.first Olympic medal, a case of thrills after the spills. Despite

:07:51. > :07:57.causing that crash, he recovered to take silver, before hinting that

:07:58. > :08:01.this could be his final games. I can't do that cycle thing again, you

:08:02. > :08:05.know? That Olympic cycling? I know I said it eight years ago, you never

:08:06. > :08:11.know. I'm certainly going to retire at some point. When I go home,

:08:12. > :08:15.people get sick of me and tell me to get back on my bike, so... Of the

:08:16. > :08:22.athletics, a moment to light up the games. Brazil's De Silver, about to

:08:23. > :08:28.leap into international folklore. He's got it! No way in your life! It

:08:29. > :08:33.was ten centimetres higher than he had ever jumped before, earning him

:08:34. > :08:38.gold and the adulation of his country. That is what the Olympics

:08:39. > :08:43.can do. But for sheer will to win, it is hard to top this. America's

:08:44. > :08:49.Sean a Miller, not so much running as diving for 400 metres gold. And

:08:50. > :08:56.it worked. A picture of pure determination. Rather more routine,

:08:57. > :09:03.but no less glorious, Kenya's David Rudisha retained his 800 metres

:09:04. > :09:07.crown in dominant fashion. And this afternoon, Usain Bolt, starting his

:09:08. > :09:11.quest for the 200 metres, in predictably comfortable style,

:09:12. > :09:16.safely through the heats. It could be another golden night for British

:09:17. > :09:24.cycling's golden couple. Jason Kenney qualifying in the heats of

:09:25. > :09:30.the Kieron, while Laura Trott leads in the omnium. Off Copacabana Beach,

:09:31. > :09:36.the open water swimming. A beautiful backdrop to the most brutal of

:09:37. > :09:39.races. In the redcap, Jack Purnell jostling for a before being

:09:40. > :09:46.disqualified just two metres from the finish. He was not impressed.

:09:47. > :09:50.You put so much into this, four years of brutal hard work, and it is

:09:51. > :09:56.ruined by a couple of judges that just want to pull out a few cards.

:09:57. > :10:01.Of his day wasn't great, how about this? Reigning diving champion, but

:10:02. > :10:04.not for much longer. Proof that even the best can sometimes get it

:10:05. > :10:07.horribly wrong. Let's take a look at the medal

:10:08. > :10:10.table so far on Day 11. In the lead is the USA

:10:11. > :10:15.with 27 gold medals. Great Britain is in second

:10:16. > :10:18.place with 16 golds - though as we were saying earlier

:10:19. > :10:21.we are guaranteed a 17th gold in the next hour thanks

:10:22. > :10:24.to the sailor Giles Scott. That will take our total tally to 42

:10:25. > :10:41.- but surely there are more to come Thanks, Sophie. No wonder they call

:10:42. > :10:46.this place the medal factory for Team GB. Track cycling in the

:10:47. > :10:51.velodrome has given the country 30% of its gold medals over the last

:10:52. > :10:57.three Games, in Beijing, London and Rio. In these games, seven medals,

:10:58. > :11:00.four of them gold medals. And the prospect of more this evening, not

:11:01. > :11:05.least from Jason Kenney. If he can win, it will be a sixth Olympic gold

:11:06. > :11:09.for him, drawing him level with Sir Chris Hoy. No man in British Olympic

:11:10. > :11:15.history has won more gold medals than that. Then his fiancee, Laura

:11:16. > :11:18.Trott, going for what would be a fourth Olympic gold. That would make

:11:19. > :11:23.her the most successful British woman in Olympic history. Together,

:11:24. > :11:27.that household will have won ten golds, one silver if both are

:11:28. > :11:31.successful this evening. Surely, the most successful Olympic couple that

:11:32. > :11:35.has ever been. When you consider they are just 28 and 24, just

:11:36. > :11:40.imagine how many more they could potentially go on and win. If Jason

:11:41. > :11:42.Kenney continues at this rate, you could become the second most

:11:43. > :11:47.successful Olympian to Michael Phelps of all time, that is how good

:11:48. > :11:51.they have been so far. Team GB, still ahead of China, just. If they

:11:52. > :11:55.can continue that and finish in second, it will be the first time

:11:56. > :11:59.ever they have finished ahead of that Olympic powerhouse. With the

:12:00. > :12:01.likes of Nicola Adams, Mo Farah and the Brownlees to come, there is more

:12:02. > :12:05.to come. Inflation rose more than expected

:12:06. > :12:07.last month to 0.6%, according to the Office for National

:12:08. > :12:08.Statistics. It was pushed up by an increase

:12:09. > :12:11.in the cost of fuel Separate figures out today suggest

:12:12. > :12:15.the fall in the value of the pound since the UK's referendum vote

:12:16. > :12:18.to leave the EU has increased the cost of

:12:19. > :12:19.imports for manufacturers. Here's our economics

:12:20. > :12:23.correspondent Andy Verity. What's Brexit got to do

:12:24. > :12:25.with the price of fish? At this Chessington-based food

:12:26. > :12:28.importer, the scale of the drop in the value

:12:29. > :12:31.of the pound is no joke. We could probably produce a pack

:12:32. > :12:38.like this for around ?4 a pack. Because the pound has fallen

:12:39. > :12:42.to a 30-year low, this firm needs more pounds to buy the same fish

:12:43. > :12:46.in dollars, euros or yen. These yellow-fin tuna

:12:47. > :12:48.fish are an example They come from the western

:12:49. > :12:52.Pacific Ocean and they are Since Brexit they are costing

:12:53. > :12:59.16% more than before. That price rise will feed

:13:00. > :13:01.through to consumers, The cost to companies of raw

:13:02. > :13:07.materials had been falling. But in the year to July,

:13:08. > :13:10.they rose by 4.3%. Many companies like this

:13:11. > :13:16.one can't bear those higher costs alone, so they're

:13:17. > :13:18.already talking to their customers Inflation is likely to be

:13:19. > :13:30.three-and-a-half times that profit. We have to re-engineer our offer,

:13:31. > :13:33.we have to pass on a big part of that inflation to

:13:34. > :13:35.our customers. At commuter stations today, rail

:13:36. > :13:38.passengers were warned of a fare rise next January,

:13:39. > :13:41.based on the old measure of the cost of living,

:13:42. > :13:44.the Retail Prices Index or RPI. That's gone up by 1.9%,

:13:45. > :13:45.more than three times as fast as the official

:13:46. > :13:52.measure, the Consumer Prices Index. Every single day you have

:13:53. > :13:54.problems and you take two, That compared to the price you pay,

:13:55. > :13:58.put it together, it makes This increase, in particular, isn't

:13:59. > :14:03.excessive but if you add them all up, they have gone up

:14:04. > :14:05.a lot, way too much. But if they could keep it

:14:06. > :14:11.in proportion, I don't think anyone would mind a little

:14:12. > :14:17.but I think it is unfair. The train companies say the extra

:14:18. > :14:20.money will be well-spent. We are investing massive

:14:21. > :14:22.amounts of money, around ?1 million every hour,

:14:23. > :14:27.in the railway upgrade programme. ?50 billion over the next few

:14:28. > :14:29.years and delivering a huge number of new trains to provide

:14:30. > :14:33.better and better services. More inflation, not just

:14:34. > :14:35.for rail passengers, the Bank of England is trying

:14:36. > :14:39.to encourage but setting the official interest

:14:40. > :14:45.rate at a record low. But it wants the sort of inflation

:14:46. > :14:47.that goes with economic

:14:48. > :14:48.growth and higher wages. Not the sort that makes life more

:14:49. > :14:51.expensive, even if the economy Andy Verity, BBC News,

:14:52. > :14:55.Chessington. Our top story this evening:

:14:56. > :14:58.Anjem Choudary, Britain's most high profile Islamist preacher,

:14:59. > :15:00.has been convicted of encouraging support for so called

:15:01. > :15:02.Islamic State And still to come, how Simone Biles became

:15:03. > :15:13.the gymnastics star of Rio. Usain Bolt is comfortably

:15:14. > :15:16.through to the semi-finals of the men's 200 metres,

:15:17. > :15:18.breezing past the field, as he eyes his third

:15:19. > :15:37.gold of the Games. The number of wild bees

:15:38. > :15:39.across England is on the decline They say the sharp fall of up to 30%

:15:40. > :15:44.can be linked to the use of a controversial pesticide

:15:45. > :15:46.which is temporarily The research, which was published

:15:47. > :15:51.in the journal Nature communications, was carried out

:15:52. > :15:53.by scientists based in Oxfordshire. Rebecca Morelle

:15:54. > :16:04.is there for us now. Well, it's an idyllic rural scene

:16:05. > :16:09.here but across the countryside we are facing a major problem. Bees are

:16:10. > :16:14.in dramatic decline and the problem has been linked to habitat loss,

:16:15. > :16:21.climate change, and disease. But in recent years, a light has been shone

:16:22. > :16:23.on a group of pesticides called niconicotinoids and scientists

:16:24. > :16:28.believe they have evidence that they are causing a wide-spread problem.

:16:29. > :16:31.They're vital for the environment - pollinating our flowers,

:16:32. > :16:37.But Britain's bees are in trouble and now scientists say there's

:16:38. > :16:42.evidence that pesticides are linked to their widespread decline.

:16:43. > :16:46.In farmland across the country, neonicotinoid chemicals have been

:16:47. > :16:53.This field of oilseed rape is just about ready for harvest and it's

:16:54. > :17:01.this crop that's treated with the insecticide.

:17:02. > :17:04.The chemical is applied to seeds before they are planted and this

:17:05. > :17:06.protects the plants from pests as they grow.

:17:07. > :17:09.But since 2013, farms haven't been allowed to use the pesticide,

:17:10. > :17:17.after the European Union put a temporary ban in place.

:17:18. > :17:21.Smaller, lab-base studies suggested they were harming bees,

:17:22. > :17:24.however this it least research from the Centre for Ecology

:17:25. > :17:26.and Hydrology, analysed their effects on dozens of species

:17:27. > :17:29.across the whole of England and they found that bees that

:17:30. > :17:31.foraged on neonicotinoid treated oilseed rape were three times more

:17:32. > :17:37.likely to be in decline than the species that didn't.

:17:38. > :17:40.What we've been able to do is massively increase the scale

:17:41. > :17:43.We are looking at the whole of England.

:17:44. > :17:46.We are looking at long-time periods, over 18 years and looking at 62

:17:47. > :17:54.And it's this massive increase in scale which separates this study

:17:55. > :17:59.But one company that makes neonicotinoids says it is not clear

:18:00. > :18:02.that the pesticide is to blame and the ban is hurting farmers.

:18:03. > :18:06.The alternatives, when it comes to growing oilseed rape,

:18:07. > :18:10.in the UK landscape, seem to be very few and the ones

:18:11. > :18:18.We are seeing a lot of destruction of crops out there and farmers

:18:19. > :18:24.are really struggling to be able to grow this crop in the UK now.

:18:25. > :18:32.This growing body of research, on the plight of bees, is currently

:18:33. > :18:35.Next year they'll decide whether to lift the ban

:18:36. > :18:44.It's clearly an incredibly complex issue. One of the biggest problems

:18:45. > :18:51.is that it's nearly impossible to grow oilseed rape without

:18:52. > :18:54.pesticides. If you get rid of neonicotinoids you have to replace

:18:55. > :18:58.them with another chemical and that may bring a whole host of other

:18:59. > :19:01.environmental problems but on the other hand bees are eception, they

:19:02. > :19:05.pollinate so many different crops. One thing for sure, is that it is

:19:06. > :19:12.going to be an incredibly difficult decision.

:19:13. > :19:15.A man has died in West Yorkshire after being attacked by a dog,

:19:16. > :19:17.a week after the animal had been returned to its owner

:19:18. > :19:21.It is thought 52-year-old David Ellam was trying

:19:22. > :19:25.to protect his own Yorkshire terrier when the larger dog turned on him..

:19:26. > :19:28.West Yorkshire police said the dog involved had been seized by officers

:19:29. > :19:29.in June following concerns about its safety.

:19:30. > :19:42.Sophie, it happened in that street, as the victim David Ellam was

:19:43. > :19:45.walking his own dog, a Yorkshire terrier yesterday morning. The

:19:46. > :19:49.neighbours say they saw what happened, that he was seriously

:19:50. > :19:54.injured to his leg, his arm and his face. He was badly bledding and

:19:55. > :19:59.collapsed. He was taken to hospital, but died 12 hours later. Police

:20:00. > :20:04.removed this larger dog and it's been taken away to kennels. The case

:20:05. > :20:07.has been referred to the Independent Police Complaints Commission because

:20:08. > :20:15.that dog had been invested by officers a short while ago. It had

:20:16. > :20:18.been seized follow reports about its safety but it was returned to this

:20:19. > :20:24.community where its owners lived, just a matter of days ago. A

:20:25. > :20:27.29-year-old man, who owns that dog, was arrested following the attack.

:20:28. > :20:32.He's been bailed pending further inquiries.

:20:36. > :20:37.reveals patchy NHS care for the condition across England.

:20:38. > :20:39.While some regions appear to meet national standards in terms

:20:40. > :20:41.of offering support, the Health Secretary says

:20:42. > :20:45.Jeremy Hunt said tackling the disease was a key priority

:20:46. > :20:47.but charities said the "postcode lottery" of care was unacceptable.

:20:48. > :20:59.Nan's had dementia now for about 16 years and so she's in quite

:21:00. > :21:02.an advanced stage but she's got incredible care

:21:03. > :21:11.by people who really care about her personally.

:21:12. > :21:13.The actress, Carey Mulligan, talking there about

:21:14. > :21:15.her grandmother's experience with dementia.

:21:16. > :21:18.She joined the Health Secretary, Jeremy Hunt, at a photocall,

:21:19. > :21:20.as she became the first UK global Dementia Friends ambassador,

:21:21. > :21:22.encouraging volunteers to learn more about supporting people

:21:23. > :21:37.There are ways to live well with Alzheimer's and so as much

:21:38. > :21:39.as there is a fear to it, of course, in families,

:21:40. > :21:41.especially when it's been through several generations,

:21:42. > :21:44.we are also trying to build a better society for people

:21:45. > :21:47.But the Health Secretary says local services could do better

:21:48. > :21:50.as he launched a new dementia atlas, showing how many patients have

:21:51. > :21:52.had the required care review in the last year.

:21:53. > :21:55.In Somerset, for example, fewer than 50% had their care reviewed.

:21:56. > :21:59.In Newark in Sherwood it was nearly 70% and in South Tyneside more

:22:00. > :22:03.Today's initiative also aims to promote so-called

:22:04. > :22:07.dementia-friendly communities, including Sevenoaks here in Kent.

:22:08. > :22:10.That's where local organisations work together, to try to raise

:22:11. > :22:14.awareness of dementia, with schemes, including one

:22:15. > :22:16.which helps older people who may be out shopping and become

:22:26. > :22:32.My mum enjoys it, so it makes it a positive experience and something

:22:33. > :22:36.And for my dad it means he meets other carers,

:22:37. > :22:45.who obviously understand the situation he is in.

:22:46. > :22:46.But local organisers acknowledge that more needs

:22:47. > :22:54.We'd like to be able to reach more people with more services

:22:55. > :23:00.So, you know, maybe we only reach one in ten of the total population

:23:01. > :23:04.living with dementia at the moment and we'd like to improve on that.

:23:05. > :23:07.Health authorities in Wales and Northern Ireland both said

:23:08. > :23:13.they were investing more in services for those affected by dementia.

:23:14. > :23:15.Scotland will announce a major new strategy later this year.

:23:16. > :23:18.Across the UK, few would disagree with the need to raise care

:23:19. > :23:29.Back to the Olympics now and one of the big stars of these games

:23:30. > :23:30.is the American gymnast Simone Biles.

:23:31. > :23:33.In just one week the 19-year-old has already managed to get three Olympic

:23:34. > :23:46.Here's our Sports Correspondent Natalie Pirks.

:23:47. > :23:53.In gymnastics constant quest for perfection, one woman is setting the

:23:54. > :23:59.bar high. In a blur of crystals, with a megawatt smile, Simone Biles

:24:00. > :24:03.has twaken these Olympics by stoorm. But the 19-year-old isn't phased. .

:24:04. > :24:12.I'm enjoying it etch V our whole team is doing so well. Wow, it is

:24:13. > :24:17.amazing. Nadia Cominec's perfect 10 on the

:24:18. > :24:23.bars 40 years ago remains the gold standard. With scoring now

:24:24. > :24:26.different, it can never be repeated but byes floor are you teen comes

:24:27. > :24:31.close. She has a move named after her, so how does she do it? Her tiny

:24:32. > :24:34.frame packs a powerful punch. The short run-up gives her the strength

:24:35. > :24:39.to spring into the double layout reaching up to two times her height.

:24:40. > :24:44.The half twist with the blind landing is so difficult, that no-one

:24:45. > :24:49.had ever landed it successfully in a World Championships before. But she

:24:50. > :24:53.makes it look so simple. The skills that she is performing on a

:24:54. > :24:56.day-to-day basis are incredibly difficult but she makes them look so

:24:57. > :25:00.easy. We have seen training videos of her, where she is performing

:25:01. > :25:05.harder ski.s I think that's her secret. She is able to perform to a

:25:06. > :25:09.higher level but when it comes to competition she is able to drop a

:25:10. > :25:14.level and she's performing in her comfort zone. A foster child,

:25:15. > :25:19.adopted by her grand parents, she caught the gymnastics bug at the age

:25:20. > :25:27.of six. 14 years later, she holds the most World Championships golds

:25:28. > :25:32.of any woman in history Dominic was part of the successful team in the

:25:33. > :25:38.'60s. She says we're witnessing history. She is not Mohammed ally.

:25:39. > :25:42.She is not going to voice being the greatest of old time. However we can

:25:43. > :25:48.say she is the great e of all time today. There may be more in the

:25:49. > :25:51.future but at the moment we have never seen anyonemore gifted. Last

:25:52. > :25:56.night on the beam she proved she was human afterall. That will be a

:25:57. > :26:00.deduction. Putting her hands down with a technical fall, yet it was

:26:01. > :26:03.still good enough for bronze, to go with the three golds. There are

:26:04. > :26:09.seemingly no limits to the 258ents of the woman who can fly. Well, in

:26:10. > :26:12.the next half hour she goes for the fourth gold in the floor. Arguably

:26:13. > :26:17.her best event. Her difficult any tariff is so much higher than her

:26:18. > :26:21.competitors she already has a head start. So, if all goes well, she

:26:22. > :26:23.will win her fifth gold of the games at just 19. If you hadn't heard her

:26:24. > :26:40.name before, you certainly have now. We almost matched the Rio

:26:41. > :26:43.temperatures in Scotland today. It was here where we hit 27 through

:26:44. > :26:47.this afternoon. Other parts of western UK warmer than yesterday as

:26:48. > :26:53.well. And with the day that little bit warmer, night not as chilly.

:26:54. > :26:58.Most have a fine day. A few mist and fog patches across the east. The

:26:59. > :27:02.chance of one or two showers and maybe the odd rumble of thunder in

:27:03. > :27:07.Northern Ireland. Temperatures holding up into the teens in cities.

:27:08. > :27:11.You wake up to Wednesday on another sunny start for the vast majority of

:27:12. > :27:14.the UK. . For many it'll stay that way but a few exceptions. Northern

:27:15. > :27:17.Ireland, morning sunshine gives way to outbreaks of rain and by the end

:27:18. > :27:25.of the afternoon a few showers in the west of Scotland. The odd rumble

:27:26. > :27:28.of thirned with. 27 in the East Midlands, 25, maybe 26 again in

:27:29. > :27:31.Highland Scotland. A lovely evening will follow but rain until Northern

:27:32. > :27:35.Ireland tomorrow evening tomorrow night and turning wet for a time in

:27:36. > :27:40.Wales and across southern counties of England. The odd rumble of

:27:41. > :27:44.thunder with that. Into Thursday morning, the rumble storms dissipate

:27:45. > :27:49.and may give a welcome drink to gardens into southern England before

:27:50. > :27:53.showers fade. For most again on Thursday, a predom in factually dry

:27:54. > :27:58.day. Not as warm, getting cooler but enjoy the dry, sunny weather whilst

:27:59. > :28:01.you have t on Friday better drier weather will be northern Scotland.

:28:02. > :28:03.Eastern areas dry and bright. Wet and windy weather arriving in the

:28:04. > :28:07.south-west. Sunshine and showers later. If you are spending the

:28:08. > :28:13.weekend under canvass, look away now. Big unseasonally detail of low

:28:14. > :28:15.pressure set to push in. On Saturday rainfall amounts will vary

:28:16. > :28:20.drastically from one place to the other. A case of heavy thundery

:28:21. > :28:23.showers. Of more concern for outdoor events could be the wind,

:28:24. > :28:26.potentially touching galeforce in England and Wales.

:28:27. > :28:31.You need to go away and do something about that. Change it.

:28:32. > :28:36.A reminder of the main story this evening: Am gem Chowdhury, Britain's

:28:37. > :28:41.most high-profile Islamist preacher has been convicted of inviting

:28:42. > :28:42.support for so-called Islamic state. --
