:00:00. > :00:00.Heading home - Team GB fly out of Rio as they celebrate their most

:00:00. > :00:10.successful games in more than a century.

:00:11. > :00:14.They won a total of 67 medals in Rio - more than in London -

:00:15. > :00:19.putting them in second place in the medal table.

:00:20. > :00:23.Inside the Olympic Stadium, a spectacular end to Rio 2016,

:00:24. > :00:28.as 19 days of competition draw to a close.

:00:29. > :00:31.But away from the Games, the city's violence has continued -

:00:32. > :00:35.we'll be asking what Rio's legacy will be.

:00:36. > :00:39.Trying to stop the spread of extremism in jails -

:00:40. > :00:42.the Government announces plans for England and Wales to segregate

:00:43. > :00:47.the most dangerous Islamist prisoners.

:00:48. > :00:50.Labour's leadership contest gets underway in earnest,

:00:51. > :00:56.as almost 650,000 ballot papers are sent out to party members.

:00:57. > :00:58.And the teenagers who've risked their lives to get to Europe -

:00:59. > :01:03.now living alone on the streets of Italy.

:01:04. > :01:05.And coming up in the sport on BBC News.

:01:06. > :01:08.A "sporting Superpower" - that's how Team GB are being viewed

:01:09. > :01:32.by UK Sport, after finishing second in the medal table at Rio 2016.

:01:33. > :01:34.Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six.

:01:35. > :01:40.after their most successful Olympic Games in more than a century.

:01:41. > :01:43.They finished second in the medal table - behind the United States -

:01:44. > :01:45.with a total of 67 medals, beating their medal haul

:01:46. > :01:50.Their departure follows a spectacular closing

:01:51. > :01:56.After 19 days of competition, the Olympic flame was extinguished

:01:57. > :01:58.at the Maracana Stadium, as Brazil handed over

:01:59. > :02:01.the baton to Tokyo, who'll host the next Olympic games.

:02:02. > :02:17.It is a city synonymous with Carnival, and last night, Rio said

:02:18. > :02:29.goodbye to the Olympics with all of its hallmark colour, noise and party

:02:30. > :02:36.spirit. Tokyo, set to host the next summer games, sent the Nintendo

:02:37. > :02:43.character Superman Rio, or was it their Prime Minister? It was hard to

:02:44. > :02:48.tell. Team GB celebrated their success with red, white and blue

:02:49. > :02:54.flashing shoes, perfect pairing for all their gold, silver and bronze.

:02:55. > :03:00.67 medals including 27 golds represents Britain's greatest haul

:03:01. > :03:06.in over a century. To be able to fly home with medals in our pockets that

:03:07. > :03:12.make us the most successful team ever is something we hope and dreams

:03:13. > :03:14.as we flew out, but it is amazing that it has happened.

:03:15. > :03:25.How did Team GB achieve such success? Funding is key. UK sport

:03:26. > :03:32.targeted ?274 million of lottery cash on 24 sports. Of 28 sports in

:03:33. > :03:38.total in the Games, GB finished on the podium in 19. Just over a third

:03:39. > :03:47.of athletes are returning with a medal. UK Sport's catchphrase is no

:03:48. > :03:51.compromise, a reflection of a targeted investment strategy. Team

:03:52. > :03:55.GB is forced to watch from the sidelines in some sports, such as

:03:56. > :04:02.basketball, which receives no funding. Winning athletes are set to

:04:03. > :04:09.benefit if the dash as the build-up to the next games gets under way.

:04:10. > :04:16.Many of our athletes have tasted and away games, and they go from Brazil

:04:17. > :04:23.to Japan, and there is a real commitment to continue that drive

:04:24. > :04:28.and that success. At around ?4 million per medal, British Olympic

:04:29. > :04:31.success certainly comes with a hefty price tag, but after a golden

:04:32. > :04:34.Brazilian summer, those in control of the finances believe it is worth

:04:35. > :04:36.every penny. Well, Rio 2016 ended spectacularly,

:04:37. > :04:39.but the Games were certainly not without their problems -

:04:40. > :04:41.played out against a backdrop of huge economic turmoil,

:04:42. > :04:43.political unrest as well as anger from many at the amount

:04:44. > :04:46.of money spent on them. And the big question,

:04:47. > :04:48.as always with the Olympic Games, is what will their legacy be

:04:49. > :04:51.for the host country. Our Brazil correspondent,

:04:52. > :05:05.Wyre Davies, reports. As Rio said goodbye to the Olympics,

:05:06. > :05:12.a moment to take it all in. For the last two weeks, the city has put its

:05:13. > :05:14.many problems to one side. Their problems and divisions that cannot

:05:15. > :05:24.simply be discarded and forgotten about. The power of sport as a force

:05:25. > :05:30.for change was typified by Rafaela silver-macro, Brazil's first gold of

:05:31. > :05:36.the Games, a woman from one of Brazil's toughest neighbourhoods.

:05:37. > :05:41.Amazed by her own achievements, and optimistic about what it meant.

:05:42. > :05:45.TRANSLATION: If my medal can help persuade people that the Games are

:05:46. > :05:48.good for Brazil, they are not a waste of money and they have

:05:49. > :05:53.improved the image of the country, that is a good thing. Rio certainly

:05:54. > :05:58.felt like a more confident, safer place during the Olympics, but this

:05:59. > :06:02.is what it took to guarantee the safety of tourist and athletes.

:06:03. > :06:07.There have been almost unprecedented levels of security during big aims,

:06:08. > :06:11.meaning thousands of heavily armed soldiers on the streets. They have

:06:12. > :06:17.kept many parts of Rio safe in the past few weeks, but elsewhere,

:06:18. > :06:21.things have continued just as normal. Almost every day, before and

:06:22. > :06:26.during the Games, there were heavy shoot outs between police and the

:06:27. > :06:32.gangs that control many of Rio's favelas. It was particularly bad

:06:33. > :06:36.here in a sprawling community within sight of the Olympic Stadium. A

:06:37. > :06:42.community almost untouched by the Games.

:06:43. > :06:47.TRANSLATION: For us, they may has well have taken place in London. The

:06:48. > :06:52.Olympics haven't done anything, and we did not feel part of it. We

:06:53. > :06:56.didn't see any investment in the community. But the Olympics did

:06:57. > :07:02.serve as a catalyst to transform some parts of Rio. New

:07:03. > :07:07.infrastructure and previously no go areas revitalised, already being

:07:08. > :07:11.used by thousands of locals. Brazil bet on the cycle of the event as a

:07:12. > :07:17.way of pushing forward a certain model of development, and medal -- a

:07:18. > :07:22.model of transformation. It did benefit the city, but I do think it

:07:23. > :07:25.benefited the majority of the population. There are challenges

:07:26. > :07:33.ahead, not least the forthcoming Paralympics. City and state covers

:07:34. > :07:35.are almost bare. The city can breathe a sigh of relief.

:07:36. > :07:38.And we can speak to our Sports Editor, Dan Roan, who's in Rio.

:07:39. > :07:42.Dan, where does Rio leave the Olympic movement?

:07:43. > :07:49.There's no doubt, I think if you told the IOC and the local

:07:50. > :07:53.organisers three weeks ago that this is how it would have played out,

:07:54. > :07:58.they would definitely have settled for that. These games, a global

:07:59. > :08:03.sports event, were being staged in developing countries for the first

:08:04. > :08:08.time on this continent, it's a political crisis and economic

:08:09. > :08:12.recession, all of the worries over the Zika virus and security, there

:08:13. > :08:20.is a real conclusion that Rio got away with it. It could have been a

:08:21. > :08:22.whole lot worse. There is great relief on the part of the

:08:23. > :08:25.organisers, but there is no doubt that there were empty seats and

:08:26. > :08:29.other issues, such as the challenges when it comes to legacy that it

:08:30. > :08:34.leaves behind. There is a question over the burden that these games

:08:35. > :08:38.play from countries like this. It could force the IOC into some big

:08:39. > :08:43.questions going forward. To the Olympics need to be smaller, cheaper

:08:44. > :08:50.and easier for developing countries to stage? Will be IOC Gophers safer

:08:51. > :08:54.bets in the future? Tokyo has five new sports coming into it, so there

:08:55. > :08:58.is no sign that they are in the mood to become a smaller affair. But for

:08:59. > :09:02.the millions of people watching around the world on television,

:09:03. > :09:07.these games will be fondly remembered, not just for the

:09:08. > :09:11.spectacular backdrop, but that those fantastic sporting moments,

:09:12. > :09:12.especially at King Great Britain, of course.

:09:13. > :09:15.The Government has announced plans to segregate what it calls the most

:09:16. > :09:17.dangerous Islamist prisoners from other inmates in jails

:09:18. > :09:20.in England and Wales, in a bid to stop the spread of extremism.

:09:21. > :09:23.The Justice Secretary set out plans including the removal of extremist

:09:24. > :09:25.books from prison libraries and stronger vetting

:09:26. > :09:30.Our Home Affairs Correspondent, Daniel Sandford, reports.

:09:31. > :09:33.Among the most infamous Islamist extremists now incarcerated

:09:34. > :09:37.in Britain are Anjem Choudary, found guilty last month

:09:38. > :09:42.of supporting so-called Islamic state, Abdulla Ahmed Ali,

:09:43. > :09:47.who led a failed Al-Qaeda plot to blow up multiple passenger

:09:48. > :09:49.jets over the Atlantic, and the 21st of July bombers

:09:50. > :09:53.who tried to attack London two weeks after 7/7.

:09:54. > :09:55.They are just a few of the men who could spread

:09:56. > :10:01.Men who converted in jail include Richard Reid,

:10:02. > :10:05.the shoe bomber, and Nathan Cuffy, who unknowingly supplied the gun

:10:06. > :10:08.for a failed Islamic State attack in London.

:10:09. > :10:12.The new Justice Secretary told me it was now time to keep the worst

:10:13. > :10:19.There is a risk there of those highly subversive individuals

:10:20. > :10:21.being able to collaborate with each other.

:10:22. > :10:24.That is why we are talking about a number of small units rather

:10:25. > :10:28.than a single larger unit, which has been tried in the past

:10:29. > :10:31.and where there have been significant problems.

:10:32. > :10:37.The idea is to create a set of units within prison,

:10:38. > :10:40.special units inside high-security jails like Belmarsh,

:10:41. > :10:45.where a few of the worst extremists can be kept completely isolated

:10:46. > :10:48.from the rest of the prison population.

:10:49. > :10:51.Jamal, not his real name, spent two years in prisons including

:10:52. > :10:55.Belmarsh, where he saw young, violent criminals and drug dealers

:10:56. > :11:00.being quickly radicalised by a hard-core of 20 extremists.

:11:01. > :11:02.There is an Islamic movement in prison.

:11:03. > :11:06.It is not an Islamic movement based upon the beautiful virtues of Islam.

:11:07. > :11:08.No, it is an Islamic movement based upon bullying,

:11:09. > :11:17.But this man, previously a senior London police officer and a Muslim,

:11:18. > :11:22.warns that special units for extremists are a risky solution.

:11:23. > :11:25.Well, the danger is that if you put people into one unit,

:11:26. > :11:30.The danger is that these individuals then want to become the individuals

:11:31. > :11:37.It is very, very dangerous that we have these individuals there.

:11:38. > :11:39.Prisons are full of vulnerable people.

:11:40. > :11:42.And we want to try and ensure that those vulnerable people do not

:11:43. > :11:48.Beyond the proposed special units, all prison staff

:11:49. > :11:53.will now get further counter-extremism training, too.

:11:54. > :11:57.But there are no points to set up special units in Scottish prison is,

:11:58. > :12:04.where Islamist extremism is not seen as a major problem.

:12:05. > :12:06.Two people have been arrested by police on suspicion

:12:07. > :12:11.Officers from Scotland Yard's Counter Terrorism Command have

:12:12. > :12:15.detained a 20-year-old woman and a 16-year-old girl for allegedly

:12:16. > :12:21.planing to travel to Syria to join a proscribed organisation.

:12:22. > :12:24.The leaders of Italy, Germany and France have been meeting

:12:25. > :12:29.in Italy to discuss the future of the European Union.

:12:30. > :12:38.They have stressed the need for giving the Momentum new impetus. --

:12:39. > :12:41.giving the European Union. The talks between Matteo Renzi,

:12:42. > :12:43.Angela Merkel and Francois Hollande come as European countries

:12:44. > :12:45.try to coordinate their negotiating position, as Britain

:12:46. > :12:47.prepares to leave the EU. They're also expected to discuss

:12:48. > :12:50.the economy, the migrant crisis The first of around 650,000 ballot

:12:51. > :12:53.papers have been sent out today to people who can vote

:12:54. > :12:56.in the Labour leadership contest. Party members will get a say,

:12:57. > :12:59.along with those belonging to unions and almost 130,000

:13:00. > :13:00.registered supporters. Our Political Correspondent Vicki

:13:01. > :13:14.Young's report contains He's getting backing from some

:13:15. > :13:18.senior Labour figures, but Owen Smith needs to persuade hundreds of

:13:19. > :13:22.thousands of signed up supporters that he'd do a better job than

:13:23. > :13:27.Jeremy Corbyn. Today he made a bold promise, to put them in charge of

:13:28. > :13:31.party policy, and did all he could to distance himself from the years

:13:32. > :13:35.where Tony Blair took New Labour into power. Our party was more

:13:36. > :13:40.interested in good relations with the bankers, with big business and

:13:41. > :13:46.the media than with ABBA grassroots. And he said that the era when Labour

:13:47. > :13:54.members were seen and not heard were part of the past. I will not seek to

:13:55. > :14:00.overturn it what ever my views, but I will seek to influence it, as

:14:01. > :14:05.leader. A warm reception for Owen Smith here in South Wales, but look

:14:06. > :14:11.what he is up against. Last night in North London, thousands turned up to

:14:12. > :14:16.see Jeremy Corbyn. His team say he is inspiring people to join the

:14:17. > :14:20.party all over the UK, and they are confident he will still be leading

:14:21. > :14:26.Labour at the end of this contest. We know that Owen has a good

:14:27. > :14:30.campaign, but we have honesty and integrity, and trust. I think those

:14:31. > :14:37.are things he doesn't have. Labour Party members see that in Jeremy.

:14:38. > :14:44.Labour Party membership is now at its highest since 1979. When Tony

:14:45. > :14:50.Blair won his landmark victory, membership was around 400,000. That

:14:51. > :14:56.nearly halved after the Iraq war in 2003, and the slump continued until

:14:57. > :15:02.2010. Now their arm or than half a million full members, under Jeremy

:15:03. > :15:07.Corbyn. After rows over the rules and who can vote, two thirds of a

:15:08. > :15:13.million people will elect the New Labour leader. A recent surge in

:15:14. > :15:17.those signing up to support Labour has been remarkable, and the party

:15:18. > :15:22.now has more members than any other elliptical party in the UK. That

:15:23. > :15:26.this leadership contest has come up YouTube the divisions over the

:15:27. > :15:27.direction the party should take. Bringing the two sides together will

:15:28. > :15:31.not be easy. Team GB prepare to fly home

:15:32. > :15:34.after their most successful Olympic Games in more

:15:35. > :15:49.than a century. I will be reporting on how the next

:15:50. > :15:52.generation of particular fish -- British Olympic heroes are being

:15:53. > :15:54.spotted sporting glory. American swimmer Ryan Lochte has

:15:55. > :15:59.been dropped by his sponsor Speedo, following the controversy

:16:00. > :16:00.over his false claim that he was robbed at gunpoint

:16:01. > :16:08.during the Olympics. Last year, more than a million

:16:09. > :16:11.migrants arrived in Europe from Syria, Africa and South Asia,

:16:12. > :16:14.sparking one of the biggest crises This year the numbers have fallen

:16:15. > :16:21.but many still try to make Latest figures suggest more

:16:22. > :16:24.than 100,000 people have reached Over the same period, 2,700 men,

:16:25. > :16:29.women and children died. Save The Children says the number

:16:30. > :16:32.of unaccompanied children who've arrived in Italy has doubled over

:16:33. > :16:41.the past year to close to 15,000. Our correspondent Chris Buckler

:16:42. > :16:43.was with a rescue ship when it arrived in the port

:16:44. > :16:46.of Catania in Sicily. Arriving from Africa, both young

:16:47. > :16:54.and old see Europe's wealth. A different world from the poverty

:16:55. > :16:57.and, in some cases, turmoil that But each new face that appears

:16:58. > :17:04.in places like Catania adds to the pressure on resources,

:17:05. > :17:07.and that is particularly true for the children,

:17:08. > :17:16.who arrive all too often alone. It's obvious in the city around this

:17:17. > :17:20.port that many live on the fringes of the system that is supposed

:17:21. > :17:23.to protect them, if not Among the teenagers we found

:17:24. > :17:29.here was Fatah. He travelled by himself

:17:30. > :17:31.from the troubled country of Somalia We're not showing his face

:17:32. > :17:40.because he is only 14. Are there not dangers

:17:41. > :17:45.for you because your mum's not here, Workers from the charity

:17:46. > :18:23.Save the Children were with us when we spoke to Fatah,

:18:24. > :18:25.and they helped to find him But in towns and cities

:18:26. > :18:32.across Italy, that's becoming increasingly difficult,

:18:33. > :18:34.with the reception centres filling up, as boats continue to arrive

:18:35. > :18:38.with vulnerable children. Today there was one girl who was 15

:18:39. > :18:41.years old, from Eritrea, Many children choose

:18:42. > :18:47.to continue their journeys alone, and this is extremely dangerous,

:18:48. > :18:50.because they are constantly falling at the hands

:18:51. > :18:52.of smugglers and traffickers. Many girls are forced

:18:53. > :18:55.into prostitution in order Keeping a separation

:18:56. > :19:00.between the worlds of children and adults is proving to be

:19:01. > :19:03.a challenge here. There are children who simply leave

:19:04. > :19:06.the reception centres, and there's little the staff

:19:07. > :19:09.there can do to stop them. Europe is starting to struggle

:19:10. > :19:13.to provide the education, shelter and stability needed

:19:14. > :19:15.by the unaccompanied children For refugees and migrants

:19:16. > :19:25.of all ages, home is both something that's been left behind

:19:26. > :19:27.as well as somewhere The go-ahead has been given

:19:28. > :19:37.for a ?7 million research project in the UK to try and help identify

:19:38. > :19:40.Alzheimers disease It's thought there are brain changes

:19:41. > :19:48.for several years before the more obvious signs

:19:49. > :19:52.of the disease become apparent. The former Radio One DJ

:19:53. > :19:54.Chris Denning has pleaded guilty to a series of child sex offences

:19:55. > :19:58.dating back as far as 1969. The 75 year old -

:19:59. > :20:01.who was one of the original line-up of presenters -

:20:02. > :20:03.admitted abusing eleven boys, but denied three charges

:20:04. > :20:06.of indecent assault. An investigation by BBC Scotland has

:20:07. > :20:12.found that the vast majority of new schools built under a private

:20:13. > :20:15.funding scheme are now So-called Private Finance

:20:16. > :20:22.Initiatives allow private companies to take a stake in,

:20:23. > :20:24.build, and then run, 17 schools built under one of these

:20:25. > :20:30.schemes in Edinburgh had to be closed for safety reasons,

:20:31. > :20:34.as Fiona Walker reports. Pupils and teachers are back to work

:20:35. > :20:39.after the summer in Scotland. At 17 schools in Edinburgh,

:20:40. > :20:42.they're back to buildings which had The problems came to light when this

:20:43. > :20:47.wall collapsed into the playground It was really distressing,

:20:48. > :20:55.to be honest, that has made it very, very upsetting for parents,

:20:56. > :21:00.knowing that we trust, when we drop our children off at school,

:21:01. > :21:03.that they are going to be kept safe. We don't want them going

:21:04. > :21:07.into buildings that are unsafe. What surprised parents is that these

:21:08. > :21:12.were relatively new schools. They are also private

:21:13. > :21:15.financed schools, or PFI, which means they are built

:21:16. > :21:18.and managed by a private company. Hundreds have been built

:21:19. > :21:20.across the UK, and now stakes in the projects are bought and sold

:21:21. > :21:26.on financial markets. The whole PFI machine, really,

:21:27. > :21:30.is really a profit machine, a wealth machine, if you like,

:21:31. > :21:33.and there are an awful lot of people making very substantial

:21:34. > :21:36.sums of money out of it, which have nothing to do with,

:22:01. > :22:11.but what you've got to look at, in terms of the way the council

:22:12. > :22:14.provided that service, was what happens to the project over

:22:15. > :22:17.the 30 year period. But does it sound like value

:22:18. > :22:20.for money, I mean, given what's happened, a wall has fallen

:22:21. > :22:22.down, does that sound We did a comparison,

:22:23. > :22:26.in terms of value for money, between public procurement

:22:34. > :22:36.should have no bearing on safety, but for families, their faith

:22:37. > :22:41.in the system has been shaken. Nobody has really been held

:22:42. > :22:48.accountable for what has happened, in putting so many children's lives

:22:49. > :22:52.at risk, really. The enquiry into the construction

:24:14. > :24:16.the focus is already turning to the next generation of Olympic

:24:17. > :24:20.and world championship stars. Who will they be and how do they get

:24:21. > :24:23.spotted in the first place? Our correspondent Frankie McCamley

:24:24. > :24:39.is at the Lee Valley White Water Yes, and this is where some of the

:24:40. > :24:43.future's Leticia Olympic hopefuls are being spotted for sporting

:24:44. > :24:46.glory, hoping to follow in the footsteps of the kayak bird

:24:47. > :24:51.medallist, Joe Clarke. Some come here for around four hours a day,

:24:52. > :24:54.others fitted around their schooling work, and for some, training has

:24:55. > :25:00.become a full-time job. They are not short of talent here and following

:25:01. > :25:06.Joe's gold-medal win, they are definitely not short of enthusiasm.

:25:07. > :25:11.Just over a year ago, 13-year-old Jack had never been in a kayak. Now

:25:12. > :25:16.he trains his six days a week. He was talent spotted at a nearby

:25:17. > :25:22.school, and he's just one of the many youngsters inspired by another

:25:23. > :25:28.local boy who trains here. Joe Clarke, picking up gold in the men's

:25:29. > :25:31.kayak final for Team GB. It's quite inspiring because it makes you know

:25:32. > :25:35.that someone from around here can get gold and makes you want to get

:25:36. > :25:40.as well. I remember watching it on TV, thinking how amazing it is for

:25:41. > :25:45.where he trains, I train as well and how local it actually is. And the

:25:46. > :25:50.man in charge of is cutting that talent at this club believes Joe's

:25:51. > :25:54.gold is only going to lead to more. It is tangible for them, they can

:25:55. > :26:00.see that if they put in the hard work Joe has done, then it is

:26:01. > :26:04.entirely possible. Joe's legacy has not just spurred on these beginners.

:26:05. > :26:14.His team-mates are also now hoping to represent Team GB in the next

:26:15. > :26:21.limpets. My goals are to medal at Tokyo. I am not that far behind and

:26:22. > :26:23.I really could compete at that level. So the work for 2020 now

:26:24. > :26:41.begins. The devil will be in the detail for

:26:42. > :26:46.you in the next couple of days. Almost Copacabana beach here in

:26:47. > :26:50.northern Scotland earlier today, it has been today a big day of

:26:51. > :26:53.contrasts, as we saw just a few moments ago, flooding across parts

:26:54. > :26:58.of northern England caused by the heavy downpour. This picture taken

:26:59. > :27:01.by Kevin in Cumbria. The downpours have eased a bit and we will keep

:27:02. > :27:05.the contrast for the next few days. They will be hotting up for some of

:27:06. > :27:09.us, but for others it is going to be still quite fresh, and there will be

:27:10. > :27:12.downpours around. That rain has eased for Northern Ireland but still

:27:13. > :27:16.a bit damp and drizzly across western Wales. Turning soggy across

:27:17. > :27:21.Northern Ireland overnight, that rain creeping towards the south of

:27:22. > :27:29.Scotland later on too. Foremost, a dry night, quite warm across the

:27:30. > :27:34.South, quite and murky -- misty and murky. Some early rain across

:27:35. > :27:37.Cumbria clears, damp and drizzly from Northern Ireland, maybe a touch

:27:38. > :27:43.dry early on but rain on and offer much Scotland. Temperatures suppress

:27:44. > :27:46.just in the teens here but for England and Wales, once the sun

:27:47. > :27:50.comes out the temperatures shoot up and we could get close to 30 degrees

:27:51. > :27:53.in the London area. The difference between hot and cold air, a weather

:27:54. > :27:56.front that gets going tomorrow evening and could cause some

:27:57. > :28:02.thunderstorms as part of southern and eastern Scotland particularly

:28:03. > :28:06.during the early hours of Wednesday. A comfortable night across the West

:28:07. > :28:10.but tomorrow night could be quite difficult for sleeping because some

:28:11. > :28:13.southern and southern areas -- southern and Eastern, temperatures

:28:14. > :28:17.staying at 19 or 20 degrees was a warm start into Wednesday, slowly

:28:18. > :28:21.the rain shimmies away, a bit more clout in central areas but a

:28:22. > :28:24.brighter day for Scotland and Northern Ireland, and still that

:28:25. > :28:30.heat across the south-east, 30 is again possible.

:28:31. > :28:38.Team GB prepare to fly home after their most successful Olympic Games

:28:39. > :28:42.in more than a century. The government announces plans for

:28:43. > :28:44.England and Wales to segregate the most dangerous Islamist prisoners.
