:03:08. > :03:13.needs, then parental rights are under attack and around the world,
:03:14. > :03:18.the fabric of our society unravels. It is well established in UK law
:03:19. > :03:23.that where parents and doctors cannot agree, a judge must decide
:03:24. > :03:28.what is appropriate. Charlie is so weak, he can't move and has serious
:03:29. > :03:33.brain damage. Four different courts have ruled he should be allowed to
:03:34. > :03:36.die with dignity. In court, lawyers for Charlie's parents said there was
:03:37. > :03:40.new information which showed an experimental treatment on offer in
:03:41. > :03:44.America might help their son. The judge said there wasn't a person
:03:45. > :03:48.alive who did not want Charlie to get better and he would be delighted
:03:49. > :03:52.the changes ruling but it had to be on the basis of clear evidence. He

:04:30. > :04:34.have been treated but crucially, none has Charlie's genetic mutation
:04:35. > :04:39.or his severe brain damage. But the High Court was told that unpublished
:04:40. > :04:43.data showing dramatic clinical improvement and claims the therapy
:04:44. > :04:46.could improve brain function. The experimental therapy has never been
:04:47. > :04:51.tried in humans or animals with Charlie's exact condition.
:04:52. > :04:55.Paediatricians say Great Ormond Street would be concerned it could
:04:56. > :04:58.do him harm. There's a lot of unknowns here and I think the
:04:59. > :05:02.doctors and nurses looking after him, colleagues really will have
:05:03. > :05:05.considered all of these processes because that is what they do, that
:05:06. > :05:09.is their day job and they are some of the most expert people in the
:05:10. > :05:13.world in this area. The judge said he would consider the merits of any
:05:14. > :05:16.new evidence on Thursday. Meanwhile, Charlie continues to receive
:05:17. > :05:18.round-the-clock care at Great Ormond Street Street Hospital.
:05:19. > :05:28.What will it take for the judge to change his mind? The parents will
:05:29. > :05:31.have to come up with significant new evidence that this experimental
:05:32. > :05:36.therapy can be of benefit to Charlie. The judge was clear, he's
:05:37. > :05:40.not going to rake over old facts. There was really immense frustration
:05:41. > :05:43.on both sides in court. Lawyers for the hospital said they had tried
:05:44. > :05:48.repeatedly over the weekend to find out what was this alleged to new
:05:49. > :05:53.evidence and got nowhere. Then at one point, a text was read out from
:05:54. > :05:57.Charlie's mon's phone from an American doctor that there was a 10%
:05:58. > :06:01.chance of improvement to Charlie but we don't know what the source of
:06:02. > :06:05.that information is. On the parents' side, they cried out to the judge
:06:06. > :06:09.that the hospital was lying to him and really they should have the
:06:10. > :06:12.chance to take their son abroad. But the parents and the doctors can
:06:13. > :06:18.agree on nothing at this stage. The hospital says, for example, that
:06:19. > :06:23.because Charlie's brain is no longer growing, his head circumference has
:06:24. > :06:26.not increased in the past three months but then Charlie's mum cried
:06:27. > :06:29.out that it has so the judge said he wanted a tape measure taken to
:06:30. > :06:32.measure his head and on Thursday, tell him the truth. It has got to
:06:33. > :06:35.that level of dispute between the sides. Thank you for joining us.

:10:43. > :10:45.Grenfell Tower. The police today have said they think it is nearer
:10:46. > :10:50.350 and some of them were not in on the night. Their figure for the
:10:51. > :10:56.number who escaped injury or escape from the fire with their lives is
:10:57. > :11:00.about 255. Crucially, the number of dead and missing remains at about

:12:31. > :12:35.damaging material on Hillary Clinton's campaign. The meeting was
:12:36. > :12:39.here at Trump Tower in New York. Until this weekend, Donald Trump Jr
:12:40. > :12:42.had not mentioned it but it was not a casual encounter, he brought along
:12:43. > :12:47.Tromp's campaign manager and his son-in-law and then his story has
:12:48. > :12:49.changed. On Saturday, he said they primarily discussed a programme
:12:50. > :12:55.about the adoption of Russian children. By the following day, he
:12:56. > :12:59.said, "The woman lawyer stated she had information that individuals
:13:00. > :13:03.connected to Russia were funding the Democratic National committee and
:13:04. > :13:06.supporting Mrs Clinton". He was told there would be information that may
:13:07. > :13:10.be helpful to the campaign. There was no such information but again, I
:13:11. > :13:13.want to ask your question, if we're going to keep using the word
:13:14. > :13:18.pollution, where is the evidence of collusion. On Friday, President
:13:19. > :13:21.Trump met President Putin and asked him directly about meddling in the

:13:37. > :13:40.President Trump in immediate jeopardy. He says he has no
:13:41. > :13:43.knowledge of it. What it does do is keep open the central question that
:13:44. > :13:47.has dogged the administration. Was there collusion between the Trump
:13:48. > :13:54.campaign team and the Russians? It promises months of further
:13:55. > :13:57.investigations. Trump Jr called the latest revelation is a big yawn but

:15:04. > :15:08.with the BBC, he has apologised to the families of those
:15:09. > :15:12.who were killed. But he has refused to say
:15:13. > :15:14.exactly what role he played Today, a relative of one
:15:15. > :15:23.of the victims called him a coward. Here's our Ireland
:15:24. > :15:25.correspondent Chris Buckler. The bombs were left in the heart
:15:26. > :15:31.of Birmingham on a Thursday night. Placed inside pubs
:15:32. > :15:34.to cause destruction. In the same year - 1974 -
:15:35. > :15:43.Mick Hayes took part in this funeral He was a well-known Republican,
:15:44. > :15:54.an admitted IRA bomb-maker who was convicted of paramilitary
:15:55. > :15:59.offences in the Republic of Ireland. And now, four decades
:16:00. > :16:02.after the murders in Birmingham, Mick Hayes has emerged again
:16:03. > :16:05.to admit he was part of the group Was a participant in the IRA's
:16:06. > :16:11.activities in Birmingham - I was a participant in the IRA's
:16:12. > :16:18.campaign in England. But you're not answering
:16:19. > :16:20.the question - did I'm giving you the only
:16:21. > :16:24.answer I can give you. Mick Hayes has in the past been
:16:25. > :16:28.questioned and named as a suspect in the bombings,
:16:29. > :16:32.but he's never been charged. Even now, he won't say what role
:16:33. > :16:35.he played in the IRA attack, but he says he takes "collective
:16:36. > :16:38.responsibility" for it. And I apologise,
:16:39. > :16:45.not only for myself. I apologise for all Republicans,
:16:46. > :16:50.who had no intention of hurting And the relatives, again,
:16:51. > :16:56.the relatives will say that you have I know they'll say that,
:16:57. > :17:03.and from their point of view, I don't shirk my responsibility
:17:04. > :17:10.in that direction. A group of men were charged
:17:11. > :17:15.and found guilty of the bombing, but it was a famous
:17:16. > :17:18.miscarriage of justice. And the convictions
:17:19. > :17:20.of the men who became known as the Birmingham Six
:17:21. > :17:35.were eventually overturned. For 16.5 years, we have been used
:17:36. > :17:37.as political scapegoats! Today, the families of those
:17:38. > :17:40.murdered in the pub bombings watched Mick Hayes' apology,
:17:41. > :17:42.and were angered by it. He reckons that he'd rather die
:17:43. > :17:46.than be an informer. But he's more than happy to take
:17:47. > :17:48."collective responsibility" for the murder of 21
:17:49. > :17:52.innocents in Birmingham. Mick Hayes avoided many questions,
:17:53. > :17:56.but he claims mistakes led the IRA to give bomb warnings too late,
:17:57. > :18:00.and that he personally defused a third bomb left in Birmingham
:18:01. > :18:05.city centre that night. When they found out what had
:18:06. > :18:26.happened, we defused the third one. In the Hagley Road.
:18:27. > :18:28.Who defused it? Many in modern-day Birmingham
:18:29. > :18:33.will question why Mick Hayes has come forward now,

:18:39. > :18:55.of teachers has recommended how teachers pay should be divided,
:18:56. > :19:09.within the Government's 1% Can teachers pay stretch any
:19:10. > :19:13.further, or are the days of 1% pay rises numbered? Schools are
:19:14. > :19:16.beginning to feel the impact took - not enough people training as
:19:17. > :19:23.teachers, others leaving after just a few years. Can schools afford to
:19:24. > :19:27.give them any more? The people coming out of university, they
:19:28. > :19:33.looked at the Hay of various different jobs, and it is producing
:19:34. > :19:38.our ability to recruit. The review body said last year that if there is
:19:39. > :19:42.not a pay rise of more than 1%, and I think they meant quite a bit more
:19:43. > :19:45.than that, then there will be a problem in teacher recruitment.
:19:46. > :19:51.Teachers pay in England has been held down. First, a two-year pay
:19:52. > :19:57.freeze meant no increase in 2011 and 2012. Then, a 1% average paid cap
:19:58. > :20:03.rise has been in place, just like the rest of the public sector. It
:20:04. > :20:09.would cost around ?1.6 billion for schools in England to increase pay
:20:10. > :20:12.in line with inflation. Teachers' pay isn't what parents talk about in
:20:13. > :20:18.the playground, but school budgets are, and the two are connected,
:20:19. > :20:23.because page, national insurance and pensions all come out of what
:20:24. > :20:28.schools have to spend. And it is the concern around the budget pressures
:20:29. > :20:34.on schools which can shift the political compass in the debate
:20:35. > :20:40.about public sector spending. Ministers have been singing very

:20:45. > :20:48.called for the pay cap to be lifted. Justine Greening is facing bigger
:20:49. > :20:54.pressures on school budgets. Rising costs already mean real terms cuts
:20:55. > :20:58.per-pupil. So today, no promise of more money for teachers but a
:20:59. > :21:02.warning this can't go on forever. The Government made it very clear to
:21:03. > :21:07.all the pay review bodies that they should be looking at limiting
:21:08. > :21:12.increases overall to 1%, within the Government's paid targets and
:21:13. > :21:15.spending targets. Politics may have changed more recently, but the work
:21:16. > :21:19.of this review body will have happened over the last several
:21:20. > :21:23.months, and they're still working within the instructions which were
:21:24. > :21:26.even to them a year ago. Schools face growing pressures on their
:21:27. > :21:30.budgets, they'd need enough teachers, too. It is a problem
:21:31. > :21:41.today's report warns won't go away. For the first time in 44 years, a
:21:42. > :21:44.British man and a British woman are both through to the last eight at
:21:45. > :21:47.Wimbledon. Andy Murray and Johanna Konta will play in the
:21:48. > :21:53.quarterfinals. Joe Wilson is there for us. Yes, two British champions,
:21:54. > :21:57.it is still on! The second week of Wimbledon, in some ways you're
:21:58. > :22:01.relieved just to still be going, like the Grand National, but then
:22:02. > :22:05.your mind turns towards the finishing line, and today is a
:22:06. > :22:09.special day. Monday morning, keep moving, if you want to see
:22:10. > :22:13.everything. The umbrella? Your choice. What unites everyone here is
:22:14. > :22:18.what Wimbledon calls the pursuit of greatness. It has been expect it of
:22:19. > :22:26.him, motivates her and still entices him. Johanna Konta was up against
:22:27. > :22:32.Caroline Garcia in a match of small margins. The first set was tight.
:22:33. > :22:43.The tie-break was tight. Johanna Konta won it. Back came Darcey to
:22:44. > :22:46.win the second set. Garcia had served brilliantly, but this was
:22:47. > :22:53.match point, this was Wimbledon and this was a critical mistake. Give
:22:54. > :22:58.Johanna Konta an occasion, she will rise to it. It is those situations
:22:59. > :23:02.that I dreamt of when I was a little girl, and to be part of those
:23:03. > :23:07.battles on big stages, that's really what it's about to be a professional
:23:08. > :23:13.athlete. Now, the first British woman into a quarterfinal at
:23:14. > :23:17.Wimbledon since 1984 and Jo Durie - what does that mean to you? That's
:23:18. > :23:21.pretty special. When Andy Murray is doing his own running commentary,
:23:22. > :23:26.there is concern. But he got through it today. He was up against Benoit
:23:27. > :23:31.Paire, number 46 in the world. At Wimbledon, Murray has never lost to
:23:32. > :23:41.a player ranked so low. Murray was getting there. Tie-break in the
:23:42. > :23:43.first, 6-4 in the second. In the third set, Murray got heated with
:23:44. > :23:51.the umpire over a challenge. Centre Court sympathised. A challenge to
:23:52. > :23:55.immediately! No matter, Murray said it was the best he had hit the ball
:23:56. > :24:01.so far in the tournament, and ultimately, Benoit Paire couldn't
:24:02. > :24:06.match it. Two British players through today, two French players
:24:07. > :24:08.made way. Meanwhile, close by, Rafael Nadal walked on to No. 1
:24:09. > :24:14.Court, limbering up - without Headroom! Ouch! He soon found
:24:15. > :24:23.himself two sets down against Gilles Muller, of Luxembourg. Nadal has
:24:24. > :24:27.made a comeback, and they are into the fifth set. Meanwhile, Roger
:24:28. > :24:32.Federer is two sets up on Centre Court. For Johanna Konta and Andy
:24:33. > :24:40.Murray, for a day at least, the hard work is done.
:24:41. > :24:42.Thomas Gainsborough was one of the most famous portrait
:24:43. > :24:44.and landscape painters of the 18th century -
:24:45. > :24:47.but despite his fame, 25 of his sketches have
:24:48. > :24:48.for decades been wrongly attributed to another artist.
:24:49. > :24:51.The pictures, which he drew as a young man, have been discovered
:24:52. > :24:53.in the Royal Collection at Windsor Castle.
:24:54. > :24:54.Our arts correspondent Rebecca Jones reports.
:24:55. > :24:58.Gainsborough's most famous portrait, The Blue Boy, painted in 1770.
:24:59. > :25:02.He was the most important British artist of the second half
:25:03. > :25:04.of the 18th century, yet few of his early drawings
:25:05. > :25:13.They've lain undiscovered in this album, here in the Print Room
:25:14. > :25:19.at Windsor Castle, since the reign of Queen Victoria.
:25:20. > :25:21.She wanted some drawings by Landseer, and this
:25:22. > :25:24.but little did she know that the drawings inside are
:25:25. > :25:26.actually by a different artist altogether.
:25:27. > :25:29.It was only when the historian Lindsay Stainton was sent a box
:25:30. > :25:32.of photos of the drawings that the mistake came to light.
:25:33. > :25:35.I was looking at boxes and boxes of photographs
:25:36. > :25:39.and I thought, "Oh, I'll just have a look through these".
:25:40. > :25:43.and I thought, "Oh, I'll just have a look through these."
:25:44. > :25:48.And I just jumped up from my chair and said to myself, "Good God,
:25:49. > :25:51.that's a study for Cornard Wood and all of these are early
:25:52. > :25:57.And this sketch of Cornard Wood near Sudbury in Suffolk would appear
:25:58. > :25:59.to be the compelling evidence that proves the drawings
:26:00. > :26:08.When it is laid over the finished picture, it matches exactly.
:26:09. > :26:10.This was his preparatory study, and it's as if we're present
:26:11. > :26:13.in the studio with him, which is a rather wonderful thought.
:26:14. > :26:14.But the discoveries didn't end there.
:26:15. > :26:18.A drawing of the head of a young woman was found on the back
:26:19. > :26:23.It could even be Gainsborough's future wife.
:26:24. > :26:25.All the pictures can now be viewed online
:26:26. > :26:40.Time for a look at the weather. And there is some change ahead, is that
:26:41. > :26:50.right? Changeable is the word we could use, yes. A mixed week as we
:26:51. > :26:56.head through the next few days. One thing we will all feel is a cooler
:26:57. > :27:02.and fresher feel to the weather, compared to what we have had of
:27:03. > :27:06.late. This was the scene, a beautiful landscape at Lerwick in
:27:07. > :27:09.Shetland. It was a different story, though, this afternoon in East
:27:10. > :27:14.Anglia, storm clouds gathering in Felixstowe. On the radar picture,
:27:15. > :27:18.you can see some showers scattered across the country, particularly
:27:19. > :27:25.heavy ones breaking out across East Anglia this afternoon. Some of those
:27:26. > :27:30.will continue into the evening. They will tend to ease, and things will
:27:31. > :27:35.be clouding over from the west. There will be some rain,
:27:36. > :27:39.particularly across western areas. It will be feeling cooler tonight
:27:40. > :27:45.than it has been of late. Tomorrow, this low pressure wobbling in from
:27:46. > :27:48.the west. A bit of uncertainty still about which track it will take. But
:27:49. > :27:58.it's southern areas which will get the wettest weather. A bit of
:27:59. > :28:02.uncertainty about how much rain will get into the likes of north Wales,
:28:03. > :28:05.the north Midlands and northern England. For Scotland and Northern
:28:06. > :28:09.Ireland, it is another day of sunshine and showers. Temperature
:28:10. > :28:15.is, way down on where they were, particularly in the south-east.
:28:16. > :28:17.There is a chance of seeing some rain on and off at Wimbledon
:28:18. > :28:28.tomorrow, which could interrupt play. Wednesday, the low will clear
:28:29. > :28:33.away, that means some drier and fine weather, still feeling cooler. For
:28:34. > :28:40.the end of the week, mainly dry with some rain at times. That is all from
:28:41. > :28:41.the BBC News at
