Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six. | :01:43. | :02:07. | |
The Chancellor Philip Hammond has put Britain's future economic | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
prosperity centre stage in any Brexit deal. | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
In particular Mr Hammond called for a "jobs first" settlement. | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
He also wants immigration to be managed but not | :02:20. | :02:21. | |
Labour says the Chancellor is distancing himself | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
from the Prime Minister's tough line on Brexit, accusing the cabinet | :02:28. | :02:29. | |
The Chancellor's comments come on a day when the Governor | :02:30. | :02:35. | |
of the Bank of England has warned of the risks of the | :02:36. | :02:37. | |
Here's our economics editor Kamal Ahmed. | :02:38. | :02:45. | |
A year on from the referendum and cars waiting in sunny Southampton | :02:46. | :02:52. | |
for a journey to the continent of Europe, exports to the European | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
Union like these are a key driver of our economy, an economy that the | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
Chancellor said would now be at the heart of those complicated Brexit | :03:00. | :03:05. | |
negotiations. Speaking at the Mansion house in central London | :03:06. | :03:07. | |
Philip Hammond said without a flexible deal with the EU the | :03:08. | :03:14. | |
economy could be at risk. When the British people voted last June and | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
they did not vote to become poorer or less secure. They did vote to | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
leave the EU and we will leave the EU, but it must be done in a way | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
that works for Britain. In a way that prioritises British jobs and | :03:30. | :03:36. | |
underpins Britain's prosperity. Alongside Mr Hammond today the | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
governor of the Bank of England. He said that Brexit was likely to make | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
people poorer and that they would need to be a transition period after | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
the completion of the Brexit process in 2019. In Monetary Policy | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
Committee prevent weak or real income growth that is likely to | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
accompany the transition to new trading arrangements with the EU. It | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
can support households and businesses as they adjust such | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
profound change. The two great economic offices of state, here is | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
the Bank of England and about two miles down the road that way the | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
Treasury, and the leaders of those two institutions I think came | :04:12. | :04:18. | |
together to date to make a big point about Brexit up of the economic | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
wealth of Britain First, they both said, even if that means some | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
sacrifices on those controversial issues of sovereignty and strict | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
controls on immigration. Another port, another city, Belfast. | :04:32. | :04:37. | |
Mr Hammond and Mark Carney spoke about struggling consumers are weary | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
of austerity command shoppers today admitted that they were feeling the | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
pinch. I think things maybe are going up in price a wee bit, and | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
obviously if wages aren't going up people will be feeling the pinch | :04:52. | :04:54. | |
that bit more. At the moment I haven't really seen much of a | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
difference, there is a lot more offers and things in supermarkets. I | :04:58. | :05:03. | |
think they have gone up, they don't match wages, to be honest. Higher | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
prices, Brexit, the need for a good deal. There were plenty of warnings | :05:08. | :05:11. | |
today but the economy has been far stronger than people expected since | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
the referendum. I don't think there is any doubt | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
that since the Brexit referendum the pound has fallen. Now, it is a glass | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
half full or half empty. Clearly that has meant there is higher | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
inflation and that has had a knock-on effect for real incomes but | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
on the other hand it has been a much-needed boost to exports, we | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
really needed that boost because the currency was overvalued. It was a | :05:35. | :05:37. | |
day for stepping back and taking the wider view on the economy. An | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
economy for consumers so uncertain, Mr Carney said there would be no | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
interest rate rises in the near future. Sunny today, yes, but there | :05:45. | :05:51. | |
could be more squally weatherhead. Kamal Ahmed, BBC News. -- squally | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
weather ahead. Our deputy political | :05:57. | :05:58. | |
editor John Pienaar He's accusing the council of | :05:59. | :06:05. | |
distancing himself from the rest of the Cabinet. Fair comment? Philip | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
Hammond said nothing to direct stomach flipped stated policy but he | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
was confronting the ambitions and rhetoric of Brexiteers in the Tory | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
party Amber Campbell are very directly. He has long been the | :06:20. | :06:23. | |
Chaplain-in-Chief of a gentle and gradual break with the European | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
Union and has seemed to be emboldened by the weakening of | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
Theresa May since the election to set out that vision more clearly | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
than he has before in calling for a transitional period on leaving the | :06:34. | :06:46. | |
European Union, as long as it needs to be for the sake of business, | :06:47. | :06:49. | |
saying there should be no rush to drive down net migration figures for | :06:50. | :06:51. | |
the sake of business. He said there should be compromises, for the sake | :06:52. | :06:53. | |
of hanging onto the benefits, if not the membership of the customs union | :06:54. | :06:54. | |
for as long as necessary. Loss of this will go down rather badly with | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
many Conservatives, including ministers. Philip Hammond, who is | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
the Chancellor, might well have been sacked if Theresa May had got the | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
result in the election she hoped for. Instead, he has emerged a | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
powerful figure, and as for Brexit, it looked tough, but with the | :07:08. | :07:18. | |
Conservatives command in no great strength in the House of Commons it | :07:19. | :07:19. | |
looks tougher still than the final outcome of Brexit in these | :07:20. | :07:21. | |
circumstances, that could only now be a matter of guesswork. Thank you | :07:22. | :07:23. | |
for joining us. The emergency response team | :07:24. | :07:31. | |
dealing with the aftermath of the Grenfell Tower fire has said | :07:32. | :07:33. | |
all the survivors who need it have By noon today it said a third | :07:34. | :07:36. | |

in which at least 79 people were killed our special | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
correspondent Lucy Manning has been talking to families - | :07:46. | :07:47. | |
getting their side of the story. Last week, Grenville was home | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
will stop this time last Tuesday, meals were being eaten, | :07:51. | :07:52. | |
TV watched, homework done. Now it's a place where families | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
are lost, where those And they are still | :07:56. | :08:00. | |
searching for help. Will Thompson helped | :08:01. | :08:08. | |
save his neighbour from the fire. He's been given a hotel | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
room to live in. Hotel is a hotel and a home is a | :08:13. | :08:21. | |
home, they are not the same thing, no matter how good it is in a hotel, | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
my home is over there in the Ashes. And what have they said. Sorry, | :08:26. | :08:33. | |
will. This is a week, almost a week after the fire and I'm really angry. | :08:34. | :08:41. | |
I don't want to be there. I want to be at home with my family. Yesterday | :08:42. | :08:49. | |
we met Miguel Alves in his hotel room. Today it's no longer his | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
family's home. They threw me out from the hotel because it was fully | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
booked from today. Oh no, what are you going to do? They gave us | :08:59. | :09:04. | |
another hotel in ravens Court and now we have to move everything back | :09:05. | :09:12. | |
to there. We need to find somewhere more permanent state, to get back to | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
some more normal life and give us some time to mourn over the friends | :09:17. | :09:19. | |
we have lost the Grenfell Tower fire. This woman walks with her | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
suitcase, she lived in the estate underneath the tower. Besides being | :09:25. | :09:30. | |
a refugee in my own community I am taking my suitcase home to go and | :09:31. | :09:33. | |
get some clothing, some more school uniform bits for my children. So I | :09:34. | :09:41. | |
am now in a hotel with my children who are studying, who are going | :09:42. | :09:44. | |
through exams and going through a lot of trauma. They are having | :09:45. | :09:50. | |
counselling themselves. Is it safe? We need somebody categorically to | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
Dallas, yes, it's safe for you to return. The help for now seems | :09:55. | :09:59. | |
better organised but it's taken a week to get here and there are still | :10:00. | :10:02. | |
major concerns about housing, about safety and about trust especially. | :10:03. | :10:10. | |
And everywhere here the pictures that are too much to bear. The | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
children and their teacher of Ravensdale Park primary, nadir, | :10:15. | :10:23. | |

a 47-year-old man after a van was driven into a crowd of muslim | :10:32. | :10:34. | |
worshippers in north Darren Osborne - from Cardiff - | :10:35. | :10:36. | |
is being held on suspicion of terror Nine people are being | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
treated in hospital - some with potentially | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
life-changing injuries. Here's our home affairs | :10:47. | :10:49. | |
correspondent Daniel Sandford - his report contains some distressing | :10:50. | :10:51. | |
images. He was underneath, we have to lift | :10:52. | :10:53. | |
the van, we have to lift the van! The chaos caused by the attack | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
on Sunday night was captured in these dramatic new pictures | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
acquired by the BBC. The hired van had, | :11:00. | :11:06. | |
apparently deliberately, ploughed into a group of people | :11:07. | :11:08. | |
marking the Muslim Nine ended up in hospital, | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
and one man died. Among the people in the crowd, | :11:12. | :11:19. | |
Abdul Matin Chowdhury Today they were recovering | :11:20. | :11:21. | |
at home in their garden. His son narrowly | :11:22. | :11:28. | |
escaped injury himself. As his father has little English, | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
he spoke for both of them. I saw an angry driver | :11:35. | :11:39. | |
in a van, in a company van. He looked at the Muslims gathered | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
around, he just drove through, and then he hit like seven | :11:43. | :11:45. | |
or eight people, My dad got hit on the shoulder | :11:46. | :11:51. | |
and next to his legs. And my dad's friend got | :11:52. | :12:05. | |
hit in the stomach. Witnesses have told us | :12:06. | :12:11. | |
that the van came down Seven Sisters Road at speed, | :12:12. | :12:13. | |
turning into this cul-de-sac and knocking down the worshippers | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
as it came through. It then came to a rest | :12:18. | :12:22. | |
between those two bollards. The bollard that it hit has been | :12:23. | :12:25. | |
removed, and when it came to a stop, | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
a young man was trapped underneath the van, | :12:30. | :12:32. | |
though he has survived. the head of one of the affected | :12:33. | :12:35. | |
mosques called for calm. Islamophobia, unfortunately, | :12:36. | :12:43. | |
is on the rise, and hate crime is also on the rise, | :12:44. | :12:56. | |
and we have to do something The cycle of violence | :12:57. | :12:59. | |
will lead us nowhere. After a day of crime-scene | :13:00. | :13:01. | |
investigation, the van was eventually taken | :13:02. | :13:02. | |
away yesterday evening. The suspected driver | :13:03. | :13:04. | |
was arrested at the scene. Darren Osborne is still in custody, | :13:05. | :13:07. | |
being held on suspicion of murder, attempted murder, and of preparation | :13:08. | :13:11. | |
and commission of terrorist acts. Four of the most senior executives | :13:12. | :13:13. | |
at Barclays, in 2008, have been charged with fraud over | :13:14. | :13:22. | |
the way they dealt with It is the first time criminal | :13:23. | :13:24. | |
charges have been brought in the UK against a bank | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
and its former executives. The charges follow a five-year | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
investigation by the Serious Fraud Office and relate | :13:33. | :13:34. | |
to the way they raised billions Those charged include Barclays' | :13:35. | :13:37. | |
former chief executive, John Varley. Our business editor, | :13:38. | :13:41. | |
Simon Jack, reports. There is some flash photography in | :13:42. | :13:48. | |
this report. Charged with criminal conduct, | :13:49. | :13:51. | |
Barclays and four members of the bank's top brass, | :13:52. | :13:53. | |
including former Chief Executive John Varley and former head | :13:54. | :13:55. | |
of Barclays' Middle Eastern This is the first time senior | :13:56. | :13:58. | |
executives of any British bank have faced criminal proceedings | :13:59. | :14:04. | |
for their conduct during While the UK Government was busy | :14:05. | :14:05. | |
using taxpayers' money to rescue RBS and Lloyds, | :14:06. | :14:15. | |
Barclays came here, to Qatar, for emergency | :14:16. | :14:17. | |
cash to keep it afloat. In 2008, Barclays raised | :14:18. | :14:19. | |
a total of ?12 billion from Middle Eastern investors, | :14:20. | :14:22. | |
including Qatar Holding, There was a sweetener, | :14:23. | :14:23. | |
?332 million was paid to Qatar for advisory services, | :14:24. | :14:30. | |
payments that weren't disclosed. Not only that, but Barclays lent | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
?2 billion to Qatar Holding Lending others money | :14:35. | :14:41. | |
to buy your shares is illegal. So why did Barclays turn | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
down Government money? The Chief Executive at the time, | :14:48. | :14:49. | |
and one of the people charged today, The circumstances were | :14:50. | :14:52. | |
very far from normal. We needed speed, we needed | :14:53. | :14:57. | |
certainty and we needed size. Looking back on it, I have to say, | :14:58. | :15:05. | |
given the extreme fragility of the sentiment in the markets | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
at that time, I'm very glad indeed that we managed to raise the capital | :15:09. | :15:11. | |
that we did raise at that time. Government ministers at the time | :15:12. | :15:14. | |
have a different explanation. Barclays did not want | :15:15. | :15:16. | |
to have anything to do I believe that was partly | :15:17. | :15:18. | |
because of a political view that this would look like creeping | :15:19. | :15:23. | |
nationalisation and also, quite frankly, because the UK | :15:24. | :15:26. | |
Government's money came with quite Now, if it's proven that crimes | :15:27. | :15:29. | |
were committed here, to some it still won't be clear | :15:30. | :15:41. | |
who the victims were. The taxpayer didn't | :15:42. | :15:51. | |
have to shell out. Shareholders in Barclays did better | :15:52. | :15:52. | |
than shareholders in RBS or Lloyds, but others will say rules are rules | :15:53. | :15:53. | |
and if this approach of prosecuting individuals as well as institutions | :15:54. | :15:53. | |
helps change a stubborn culture throughout banking of not | :15:54. | :15:54. | |
following those rules then Now we're starting to move to a more | :15:55. | :15:56. | |
American approach where individuals are in the frame for doing things | :15:57. | :16:04. | |
wrong within the business world. That is likely to concentrate | :16:05. | :16:07. | |
people's minds and make them think about - | :16:08. | :16:09. | |
is what I'm about to do a really sensible thing if it's | :16:10. | :16:12. | |
going to be me standing in the dock? Fraud convictions can carry | :16:13. | :16:15. | |

Everyone has been kind, but I just want my wife | :19:24. | :19:30. | |
Mario and his parents barely escaped in the car behind. | :19:31. | :19:39. | |
"We should have died", Mario mother's cries, | :19:40. | :19:41. | |
Mario Pinhal's home remains standing, it is a shattering | :19:42. | :19:50. | |
monument to his family's decision to flee. | :19:51. | :19:51. | |
If they'd simply stayed put, they would have all survived. | :19:52. | :19:54. | |

A review into the murder of toddler Liam Fee has found that | :20:08. | :20:17. | |
although his death couldn't have been predicted there | :20:18. | :20:19. | |
were "missed opportunities" to intervene on his behalf. | :20:20. | :20:21. | |
The two-year-old was killed in Fife in 2014 by his mother Rachel | :20:22. | :20:24. | |
and her partner Nyomi Fee after they'd subjected him to | :20:25. | :20:26. | |
Our Scotland correspondent, Lorna Gordon, reports. | :20:27. | :20:30. | |
Liam Fee's short life was marked by escalating abuse and neglect. | :20:31. | :20:33. | |
When he died, he had more than 30 injuries, | :20:34. | :20:35. | |
The first to raise the alarm over the toddler's wellbeing | :20:36. | :20:43. | |
was his childminder, Heather Farmer. | :20:44. | :20:45. | |
She contacted the authorities three times with her concerns. | :20:46. | :20:47. | |
She spoke to the BBC for an upcoming documentary | :20:48. | :20:49. | |
To me, I done my job as best as I could. | :20:50. | :21:02. | |
But someone in social work didn't do their job as best as they could. | :21:03. | :21:05. | |
I think it could have been done better and maybe the wee boy | :21:06. | :21:08. | |
She wasn't alone in her concerns over what was | :21:09. | :21:14. | |
A nursery the little boy went to raised the alarm | :21:15. | :21:18. | |
with social services, so too did a woman who saw | :21:19. | :21:23. | |
Liam covered up in his pushchair in the street. | :21:24. | :21:27. | |
She said she had a gut wrenching feeling that | :21:28. | :21:30. | |
something was wrong, but she didn't know | :21:31. | :21:32. | |
Today's review said that the authorities missed | :21:33. | :21:38. | |
opportunities to potentially prevent the harm Liam suffered. | :21:39. | :21:43. | |
It stated there was a lack of professional curiosity. | :21:44. | :21:55. | |
That explanations provided by Rachel and Naomi Fee | :21:56. | :21:57. | |
were at times accepted without challenge and when concerns | :21:58. | :21:59. | |
were raised about Liam the incidents were dealt with in isolation. | :22:00. | :22:02. | |
We fully accept the doctor's findings in her Significant Case | :22:03. | :22:04. | |
Review and we acknowledge we could have done | :22:05. | :22:06. | |
I think however it's important to point out than when we're working | :22:07. | :22:11. | |
with devious and manipulative people, such as Liam's | :22:12. | :22:18. | |
actually understand what's happening in the household. | :22:19. | :22:20. | |
The review said the extraordinary measures Rachel and Naomi Fee took | :22:21. | :22:28. | |
to disguise their abuse did hinder attempts by the authorities to help. | :22:29. | :22:31. | |
The two are now serving life in prison for Liam's murder. | :22:32. | :22:33. | |
The Manchester United manager, Jose Mourinho, has been charged | :22:34. | :22:37. | |
with two counts of tax fraud in Spain. | :22:38. | :22:41. | |
He was the manager of Real Madrid from 2010 to 2013, leading | :22:42. | :22:44. | |
Mr Mourinho has not commented, but has previously denied any | :22:45. | :22:50. | |
wrongdoing, saying he paid a tax rate of 41% during his | :22:51. | :22:52. | |
There has been a huge upset at Queen's | :22:53. | :23:21. | |
World Number One Andy Murray has lost his opening tennis | :23:22. | :23:23. | |
match in defence of his Aegon Championships title. | :23:24. | :23:25. | |
The top seed lost to Jordan Thompson - | :23:26. | :23:27. | |
90th in the world - in straight sets. | :23:28. | :23:29. | |
Back on home turf - for Andy Murray, a return | :23:30. | :23:32. | |
to the grass courts of London normally spells success. | :23:33. | :23:35. | |
But his search for a record sixth title at Queen's | :23:36. | :23:37. | |
His opponent, Jordan Thompson, was a late replacement, | :23:38. | :23:40. | |
The first set went to a tie-break, and it was Murray that lost it. | :23:41. | :23:45. | |
And it soon got even worse - Murray was lacklustre, | :23:46. | :23:56. | |
Thompson, the world number 90, no less, utterly inspired. | :23:57. | :23:59. | |
Beautifully played by Jordan Thompson. | :24:00. | :24:00. | |
The Australian duly raced to a straight-sets win, | :24:01. | :24:02. | |
one of the biggest shocks in the tournament's history, | :24:03. | :24:04. | |
and with Wimbledon less than a fortnight away, | :24:05. | :24:06. | |
for Andy Murray, some serious thinking to do, | :24:07. | :24:07. | |
If you're sweltering at home this evening, you're not alone, | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
most of the country is set for its hottest spell | :24:13. | :24:14. | |
It's prompted the Met Office to issue a warning | :24:15. | :24:18. | |
Our correspondent, Sima Kotecha, is in Brighton. | :24:19. | :24:24. | |
It's been a hot day for many of us. It's believed the hottest place | :24:25. | :24:35. | |
today was in Surrey. With a top temperature of 31.3 degrees. These | :24:36. | :24:39. | |
temperatures and conditions aren't expected to last much longer. | :24:40. | :24:45. | |
Sunshine over Brighton beach and people here are relishing every | :24:46. | :24:50. | |
minute of it I'm here with my woman. You are a beautiful woman myself. | :24:51. | :24:53. | |
Enjoying the weather. Beautiful weather. Glorious everything is easy | :24:54. | :24:58. | |
in the sun. Sit and have a beer. Have lunch at the Grand. It's | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
amazing. Sarah's birthday, couldn't be better. Temperatures reached 27 | :25:04. | :25:08. | |
degrees today. In London a hot 3 p 1 degrees. It's too hot at the moment. | :25:09. | :25:13. | |
I've never really known it quite so hot as this. For sleeping, it's | :25:14. | :25:20. | |
diabolical. So what is a heatwave? The Met Office doesn't have an | :25:21. | :25:25. | |
official definition but says heatwave conditions are created when | :25:26. | :25:30. | |
temperatures reach more than 30 degrees Celsius for five consecutive | :25:31. | :25:34. | |
days. That is what will happen if the conditions continue Thomas | :25:35. | :25:36. | |
expected, making it the hottest spell in four years. In these hot | :25:37. | :25:41. | |
temperatures you can see people cooling themselves off over here | :25:42. | :25:44. | |
using their paddle boards to get some relief from this blazing hot | :25:45. | :25:48. | |
weather. If these temperatures are to continue for the next day or so, | :25:49. | :25:52. | |
it will mean that this June will be the hottest June on record in more | :25:53. | :25:59. | |
than 20 years. Is the Met Office issued a level three amber warning | :26:00. | :26:02. | |
until Thursday morning. It means hospitals and other emergency | :26:03. | :26:06. | |
services are on alert. We had high temperatures for the past few days. | :26:07. | :26:10. | |
That is because we have seen warm air arriving from the tropical | :26:11. | :26:13. | |
Atlantic. It has been with us for a few days. It's been getting warmer | :26:14. | :26:19. | |
and warmer every day. In Cambridgeshire sweltering | :26:20. | :26:21. | |
temperatures meant that the tarmac on the roads melted. The chimps in | :26:22. | :26:27. | |
Dunstable were suffering. They were given ice lollies to keep them cool. | :26:28. | :26:32. | |
The TUC are urging bosses to allow people to ditch their suits and ties | :26:33. | :26:37. | |
in this weather. Some are already doing so. Ordinarily for my working | :26:38. | :26:41. | |
day existence I would wear a suit. Having come here to Brighton, I'm | :26:42. | :26:44. | |
not going to be wearing a suit in this temperature. These conditions | :26:45. | :26:50. | |
aren't expected to last. Rain and thunderstorms are forecast for | :26:51. | :26:51. | |
tomorrow night. Sima Kotecha, BBC News, Brighton. | :26:52. | :27:01. | |
Hatoyama is it going to get? One more day of this heat. Tomorrow | :27:02. | :27:06. | |
highs of 34 degrees. Beautiful sunshine around around today. | :27:07. | :27:10. | |
Temperatures up to 31 Celsius in a number of spots. Plenty of sunshine. | :27:11. | :27:18. | |
An odd shower to the Brecon beacons. Showers working into Northern | :27:19. | :27:21. | |
Ireland. More significance over night as you head to bed, 10.00pm, | :27:22. | :27:26. | |
look at these temperatures. 26 degrees Celsius. Yes, it's going to | :27:27. | :27:32. | |
be an uncomfortable night sleep ahead for sure. There will be rain | :27:33. | :27:35. | |
moving across northern parts of the UK as we go on through the night and | :27:36. | :27:40. | |
into Wednesday morning as well. The bulk of England and Wales it will be | :27:41. | :27:44. | |
a typical scene we got used to over the last few day, clear blue skies | :27:45. | :27:48. | |
and sunshine. It will be hotter. 34 degrees on the cards. If we get | :27:49. | :27:53. | |
that, it will be the hottest June day for over 40 years. Wednesday | :27:54. | :27:57. | |
evening and Wednesday night-time we will start to see big thunderstorms | :27:58. | :28:01. | |
being formed by that heat and humidity that has been building up | :28:02. | :28:05. | |
for a few days. The storms will become extensive on Wednesday night | :28:06. | :28:09. | |
and thunder and hail mixed in with these. Torrential bust bursts of | :28:10. | :28:13. | |
rain and gusts wind. The storms around for the first part of | :28:14. | :28:17. | |
Thursday morning for eastern England before clearing are into the North | :28:18. | :28:19. | |
Sea. The afternoon bright are conditions. Temperatures coming | :28:20. | :28:22. | |
down, still warm across eastern England, a fresher feel to the | :28:23. | :28:26. | |
weather for most of us with bright or sunny spells. That is how the | :28:27. | :28:30. | |
weather looks Friday and on into the weekend as well. Temperatures closer | :28:31. | :28:33. | |
to average for the time of year. Quite a bit of cloud, sunny spells | :28:34. | :28:37. | |
coming through. Temperatures 23 degrees or so in London. The | :28:38. | :28:41. | |
heatwave is coming to an end. Perhaps more significantly towards | :28:42. | :28:44. | |
the end of the week we will get more comfortable weather forgetting a | :28:45. | :28:47. | |
good night's sleep. Thank you very much. | :28:48. | :28:52. |
