0:01:35 > 0:01:38Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41It's one of the deadliest attacks in modern Egyptian history.
0:01:41 > 0:01:45At least 235 people have been killed and more than 100 injured,
0:01:45 > 0:01:47many critically, after gunmen detonated a bomb and then
0:01:47 > 0:01:52stormed a packed mosque at the end of Friday prayers.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55It happened in a remote town in Egypt's north Sinai region.
0:01:55 > 0:01:57Egypt's president has vowed to respond with brutal force.
0:01:57 > 0:02:07James Landale reports.
0:02:07 > 0:02:10This report contains some distressing images.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13These were some of the chaotic scenes after the attack,
0:02:13 > 0:02:16as hundreds of wounded people were rushed to nearby hospitals.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19Survivors of one of the most deadly attacks on civilians in Egypt.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21Witnesses said the militants stormed the mosque in northern Sinai
0:02:21 > 0:02:22and exploded a bomb inside.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24They said around 40 gunmen then fired on worshippers
0:02:24 > 0:02:26as they tried to flee.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28They came here to kneel in prayer.
0:02:28 > 0:02:33Instead, they lay down in death.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36President Sisi sent his condolences to the families of those who had
0:02:36 > 0:02:39died and said the attack would only increase Egypt's determination
0:02:39 > 0:02:44to face up to terrorism.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47Many of the dead and wounded were said to be Sufi Muslims,
0:02:47 > 0:02:50whose brand of Islam is rejected by jihadi extremists.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53But a mass attack on a mosque, with such devastating consequences,
0:02:53 > 0:02:56is very rare in Egypt.
0:02:56 > 0:02:57This is unprecedented.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59I can't see any particular imperative behind it
0:02:59 > 0:03:01in the slightest.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04You haven't had this sort of attack take place before.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08You've seen the rhetoric about Sufis and Sufism from these radical groups
0:03:08 > 0:03:14for years but you've never seen an attack like this.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16The Egyptian government has been fighting a jihadi insurgency
0:03:16 > 0:03:18in the northern Sinai desert for more than four years.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21It intensified when the Army ousted the former President
0:03:21 > 0:03:23and his Muslim Brotherhood movement in 2013, and since then
0:03:23 > 0:03:26local militant groups, some affiliated to so-called
0:03:26 > 0:03:32Islamic State, have killed hundreds of police and soldiers.
0:03:32 > 0:03:36But this is by far the largest attack on civilians.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38The militants have long targeted religious opponents such
0:03:38 > 0:03:39as Coptic Christians, particularly by mounting
0:03:39 > 0:03:44attacks on their churches.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46They've also killed civilians who work with the authorities in Sinai.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49Until tonight, Egypt's deadliest terror attack was the downing
0:03:49 > 0:03:53of a Russian passenger jet over Sinai in October 2000 and 15.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56IS said they were behind the bombing that killed 224 people,
0:03:56 > 0:04:00but so far no one has claimed responsibility for today's
0:04:00 > 0:04:05attack, which has now left even more people dead.
0:04:05 > 0:04:11James Landale, BBC News.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13Our Middle East Editor, Jeremy Bowen, is here.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16This is a remote town in a remote part of Egypt.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19These were Muslims at prayer in a mosque.
0:04:19 > 0:04:25Why would they be the target of such a brutal attack?
0:04:25 > 0:04:29As James said, if it is the case that these are Sufi Muslims, it is a
0:04:29 > 0:04:34mystical form of Islam, then these are people who have often been
0:04:34 > 0:04:39attacked in the past in different countries by these violent Islamist
0:04:39 > 0:04:45extremists. So that is the kind of target they might be going after.
0:04:45 > 0:04:52They have been fighting Islamic State in Sinai since 2015. But this
0:04:52 > 0:04:58year, the tempo of the attacks by these violent Islamists has gone up.
0:04:58 > 0:05:04There is one line of thought about this, that it coincided with the
0:05:04 > 0:05:08caliphate in Syria and Iraq, the IS caliphate there, being destroyed by
0:05:08 > 0:05:12military action. There have also been reports of fighters from that
0:05:12 > 0:05:18place going towards Egypt and Libya. Who knows? Perhaps there is some new
0:05:18 > 0:05:21blood in there that wants to come in and carry out this kind of
0:05:21 > 0:05:28slaughter. But it is not just about religious hatred. It is about power.
0:05:28 > 0:05:32IS, if they carried this out, and it is a likely assumption that people
0:05:32 > 0:05:36are making at the moment, they have pretensions to govern parts of
0:05:36 > 0:05:42Sinai. So there is also a message which is, the President in Cairo is
0:05:42 > 0:05:52powerless to stop what we, the jihadists, want to do.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55Zimbabwe has a new President, only its second in 37 years.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57Thousands of people celebrated in Harare today
0:05:57 > 0:05:58as Emmerson Mnangagwa was sworn in.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00It has been an extraordinary fortnight for the man
0:06:00 > 0:06:05who was until a fortnight ago Zimbabwe's vice president.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07He had to flee the country after Robert Mugabe
0:06:07 > 0:06:10abruptly sacked him, a decision that led to his own downfall.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14Our Zimbabwe Correspondent, Shingai Nyoka, reports.
0:06:14 > 0:06:18The changing of the guard in Zimbabwe, and long-time leader
0:06:18 > 0:06:20Robert Mugabe was not there to witness it.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23But newly-elected President Emmerson Mnangagwa does
0:06:23 > 0:06:27not need his blessing.
0:06:27 > 0:06:31I, Emmerson Mnangagwa...
0:06:31 > 0:06:34The moment Zimbabweans have been waiting for,
0:06:34 > 0:06:39the swearing in of this country's second leader in nearly 40 years.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41This is Zimbabwe's new President, not through an election
0:06:41 > 0:06:46but with the help of the military.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48It caps the most dramatic two weeks in Zimbabwe's history,
0:06:48 > 0:06:51and a surprise comeback from a man who just a fortnight ago fled
0:06:51 > 0:06:55the country in fear of his life.
0:06:55 > 0:06:59With Mugabe's departure, Mnangagwa will serve
0:06:59 > 0:07:03as interim President until next year's election.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06But he inherits a fragmented party and a country broken under Mugabe's
0:07:06 > 0:07:09isolationist policies.
0:07:09 > 0:07:13In his inaugural speech there was praise for his predecessor.
0:07:13 > 0:07:17He led us in our struggle for national independence.
0:07:17 > 0:07:23He assumed responsibilities of leadership at a formative
0:07:23 > 0:07:30and a very challenging time, at the behest of our nation.
0:07:30 > 0:07:36That is to be lauded and celebrated.
0:07:36 > 0:07:42But also a pledge to break from the past.
0:07:42 > 0:07:46I am not oblivious to the many Zimbabweans from our political,
0:07:46 > 0:07:53ethnic and racial divides, who have helped make this day.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56So what do we know about Emmerson Mnangagwa?
0:07:56 > 0:08:00Jailed for ten years in 1965, he met Mugabe in prison.
0:08:00 > 0:08:05There, the two men formed a close association.
0:08:05 > 0:08:11After independence in 1980, he became Mugabe's right-hand man.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14In 1983, he was implicated in the mass murder of thousands
0:08:14 > 0:08:18of opposition supporters in Matabeleland,
0:08:18 > 0:08:20something he denies.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22More recently, he was accused of orchestrating a violent crackdown
0:08:22 > 0:08:26on opposition supporters.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30Those who are very close to him say that he listens more than he speaks.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32He is a soft-spoken man, a gentleman, contrary
0:08:32 > 0:08:35to what the reports say about him.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38He is a God-fearing family man.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40We have to give him some time because an improvement
0:08:40 > 0:08:45is something which cannot be improved like overnight.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48After two weeks of uncertainty, Zimbabwe seems to be
0:08:48 > 0:08:51returning to normal again.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53No one knows what the future holds, whether Mnangagwa
0:08:53 > 0:09:03is the man to bring a new era of democracy and freedom.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11In the last hour police have been responding to an incident
0:09:11 > 0:09:17at Oxford Circus in Central London.
0:09:17 > 0:09:22Two tube stations were evacuated and thousands fled in panic. In the last
0:09:22 > 0:09:25few moments, police have stood down the operation. Tom Symons has been
0:09:25 > 0:09:30following it.
0:09:30 > 0:09:35The police say it is over but it sparked mass panic.It really did.
0:09:35 > 0:09:40This started with what several BBC reporters told us were a couple of
0:09:40 > 0:09:45bangs around Oxford Circus station. People started running, there was
0:09:45 > 0:09:49screaming, children crying, shopping being dropped. People ran into
0:09:49 > 0:09:52shops, which closed their doors, following protocol for an incident
0:09:52 > 0:09:57like this. The police response was very fast. We are about 200 metres
0:09:57 > 0:10:02away from where this is happening. As we arrived, the police were
0:10:02 > 0:10:07arriving, armed officers, and a quadrant of the Central London
0:10:07 > 0:10:11shopping area, Oxford Street and Regent Street mainly, was closed
0:10:11 > 0:10:15off, the area completely cleared of people, officers closing the
0:10:15 > 0:10:19streets. As time went on, it became clear that the police could not find
0:10:19 > 0:10:23any evidence that shots had been fired, that there were any kind of
0:10:23 > 0:10:27casualties in the streets, and we started to see armed officers
0:10:27 > 0:10:33leaving the area and the incident being closed down. During that
0:10:33 > 0:10:38period, it two Jude stations, Bond Street and Oxford Street, were
0:10:38 > 0:10:42closed, so trains would have been going straight through. And many
0:10:42 > 0:10:45shops closed their doors. The incident has now ended. The
0:10:45 > 0:10:50Metropolitan Police are saying that "Given the nature of the information
0:10:50 > 0:10:56received, 999 calls about gunshots, they responded in line with the
0:10:56 > 0:11:01suggestion it might have been a terrorism incident but it was not".
0:11:01 > 0:11:04EU leaders have said hopes of an agreement next month to begin
0:11:04 > 0:11:06trade talks following Brexit remain a "huge challenge".
0:11:06 > 0:11:08It follows talks with Theresa May in Brussels.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10The EU Council President, Donald Tusk, said that
0:11:10 > 0:11:11progress was needed
0:11:11 > 0:11:13from the UK in the next ten days "on all issues".
0:11:13 > 0:11:23John Pienaar reports from Brussels.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25An amicable divorce from a roomful of partners,
0:11:25 > 0:11:27but it is getting tense.
0:11:27 > 0:11:31So, now Theresa May is hinting to EU leaders, starting with Donald Tusk
0:11:31 > 0:11:37in the summit chair, that Britain might up and some say
0:11:37 > 0:11:39double its offer of £20 billion in a separation deal.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41Dig deeper into the nation's purse.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43If only the EU is ready to talk trade.
0:11:43 > 0:11:47Or this long goodbye could end in tears, the last thing she wanted.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49These negotiations are continuing, but what I am clear
0:11:49 > 0:11:53about is that we must step forward together.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56This is for both the UK and the European Union to move
0:11:56 > 0:12:02onto the next stage.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Brexit negotiations could, maybe will turn to trade next month.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06Leaders here need more persuasion.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08Mr Juncker, are you worried about Brexit?
0:12:08 > 0:12:11Brexit is a tragedy.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14I will meet the British Prime Minister on the 3rd of December
0:12:14 > 0:12:18and then we will see if there has been sufficient progress.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20Are you at all confident that progress will be made?
0:12:20 > 0:12:23Yes.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26But every country must agree to start talking trade,
0:12:26 > 0:12:28and Ireland's minority government is facing the risk
0:12:28 > 0:12:32of collapse at home, but was sounding tough here.
0:12:32 > 0:12:37Suggesting Brexit talks could stall without clear guarantees
0:12:37 > 0:12:39there will be no hard north-south Customs border.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41Is Ireland prepared to block progress?
0:12:41 > 0:12:44I don't think Ireland will have to block anything on its own.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47There is absolute solidarity across 27 countries here.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51Germany is not much more supportive.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53Angela Merkel was already firm on Brexit.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55Now she has her hands full forming a new government.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58She met Mrs May today, another leader looking for more give
0:12:58 > 0:13:03on the British side.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06In her one-on-one talks with the EU Council president,
0:13:06 > 0:13:09no final proposals, no breakthrough and they may not settle hard
0:13:09 > 0:13:11numbers on the divorce Bill for months to come.
0:13:11 > 0:13:14But they explored the case for more compromise.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17There are still issues across the various matters
0:13:17 > 0:13:20that we are negotiating on to be resolved, but there has been a very
0:13:20 > 0:13:22positive atmosphere in the talks and a genuine feeling
0:13:22 > 0:13:24that we want to move forward together.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26Neither side wants the Brexit talks to end in
0:13:26 > 0:13:29stalemate, but without more give and take it could happen.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31And then the risk would grow of negotiations
0:13:31 > 0:13:36ending with no EU trade deal at all.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38And that is the outcome business leaders who are worried about Brexit
0:13:38 > 0:13:40say they fear most.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42So, more talking to do ahead of the next big summit
0:13:42 > 0:13:45next month.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47The slow march of Brexit goes on.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50Its course and destination being decided one step at a time.
0:13:50 > 0:13:57John Pienaar, BBC News, Brussels.
0:13:57 > 0:14:00A court in South Africa has more than doubled the jail sentence
0:14:00 > 0:14:02of the former Olympic and Paralympic athlete Oscar Pistorius.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04He has been given 15 years for murdering his girlfriend
0:14:04 > 0:14:06Reeva Steenkamp, after prosecutors argued his original six-year
0:14:06 > 0:14:10sentence was too short.
0:14:10 > 0:14:12Pistorius was jailed in 2016 after being found guilty on appeal
0:14:12 > 0:14:15of killing his girlfriend.
0:14:15 > 0:14:21He shot Reeva Steenkamp four times through a locked door at his home.
0:14:21 > 0:14:22Major companies have suspended their advertising
0:14:22 > 0:14:25on YouTube after it emerged that people have been leaving sexually
0:14:25 > 0:14:27explicit comments next to videos posted by children,
0:14:27 > 0:14:34comments that hadn't been removed by YouTube.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Adverts for major brands like Mars and Cadbury have been appearing
0:14:36 > 0:14:39alongside some of the videos.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42YouTube says since this came to light it has taken action
0:14:42 > 0:14:43to remove the comments.
0:14:43 > 0:14:50Amol Rajan, reports.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53YouTube has reinvented the very idea of broadcasting,
0:14:53 > 0:14:55allowing anyone with access to the internet to create their own
0:14:55 > 0:14:59channel and build a following.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02The site now has a billion users and pulls in around £4 billion in ad
0:15:02 > 0:15:03revenues every year.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06Users have to be 13 before they can upload and share videos,
0:15:06 > 0:15:09but millions of teenagers use the opportunity to share their inner
0:15:09 > 0:15:11thoughts with the world, or just to have fun.
0:15:11 > 0:15:15That is why and where sexual predators often stalk them online.
0:15:15 > 0:15:21These comments found by the BBC are a fraction of the total material
0:15:21 > 0:15:23on YouTube but they show how the digital platforms have
0:15:23 > 0:15:25emboldened some would-be offenders.
0:15:25 > 0:15:28New research by BBC Trending, the BBC social media
0:15:28 > 0:15:30investigations unit, has discovered that for close
0:15:30 > 0:15:32to a year something went wrong with the system
0:15:32 > 0:15:33for removing obscene comments.
0:15:33 > 0:15:37I am really, really concerned that the public function reporting
0:15:37 > 0:15:40isn't seemingly working.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42It's something I will be writing to YouTube about straightaway
0:15:42 > 0:15:46and I will want them to take immediate action.
0:15:46 > 0:15:52Several leading brands have now said they will suspend
0:15:52 > 0:15:56their advertising on the platform until it is further cleaned up.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59Brands such as Mars, Adidas and Lidl.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02In a statement, YouTube's owners, Google, said: "Content that
0:16:02 > 0:16:06endangers children is abhorrent and unacceptable to us.
0:16:06 > 0:16:12"In just the past week, we've disabled comments on thousands
0:16:12 > 0:16:14"of videos and shut down hundreds of accounts
0:16:14 > 0:16:16"identified as making predatory comments".
0:16:16 > 0:16:18A power broker in Britain's advertising industry applauded
0:16:18 > 0:16:20the tech giant's efforts to address the issue but said
0:16:20 > 0:16:21they should do more.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23I think we have to be incredibly diligent.
0:16:23 > 0:16:27Whether they would call themselves a platform or a publisher,
0:16:27 > 0:16:29they are responsible to advertisers I think to make sure
0:16:29 > 0:16:32that the environments that they take advertising in and make money
0:16:32 > 0:16:34from are free of these dangers.
0:16:34 > 0:16:35Some campaigners and indeed politicians say that YouTube
0:16:35 > 0:16:37should be regulated just like any other broadcaster.
0:16:37 > 0:16:40But the very principle of the open Web is that users and not companies
0:16:40 > 0:16:46should shape our public domain.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50And the sheer volume of content on YouTube,
0:16:50 > 0:16:53400 hours of video uploading every single minute, means that ultimately
0:16:53 > 0:16:56this is an issue that would be managed not by human beings,
0:16:56 > 0:16:58but by machines.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01Digital giants like Google are adamant that social problems
0:17:01 > 0:17:02in the internet age have technological rather
0:17:02 > 0:17:05than regulatory solutions.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08But the prevalence of sexual predators online is an issue that
0:17:08 > 0:17:10will never be fully eradicated, because the anarchic freedom
0:17:10 > 0:17:13of the internet will always afford them a home somewhere in cyberspace.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16To fight them is to enter a war without end.
0:17:16 > 0:17:20Amol Rajan, BBC News.
0:17:20 > 0:17:28Our top story this evening...
0:17:28 > 0:17:33One of the deadliest attacks in modern Egyptian history. At least
0:17:33 > 0:17:37235 people have been killed in a bomb and gun attack in a mosque in
0:17:37 > 0:17:40north Sinai.
0:17:40 > 0:17:41And still to come ...
0:17:41 > 0:17:44We're on the trail of the flytipping gangs, taking advantage
0:17:44 > 0:17:45of homeowners and illegally dumping their rubbish.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47Coming up on Sportsday on BBC News...
0:17:47 > 0:17:48The foremr footballer MIchael Owen impresses
0:17:48 > 0:17:51on his first race as a jockey, finishing second in
0:17:51 > 0:17:54a charity race at AScot.
0:18:03 > 0:18:07It's Black Friday again, but this year most of the bargain-grabbing
0:18:07 > 0:18:11seems to have gone online.
0:18:11 > 0:18:16By the end of today it's thought that British shoppers will have
0:18:16 > 0:18:23spent more than £2.5 billion in one day alone.
0:18:23 > 0:18:24That's about £937,000 a minute online.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27But not all retailers like it.
0:18:27 > 0:18:37Emma Simpson's at Amazon's warehouse in Tilbury in Essex.
0:18:37 > 0:18:42Oh, they definitely like Black Friday here. This is Amazon's
0:18:42 > 0:18:45biggest and newest distribution centre. They do some of the packing
0:18:45 > 0:18:50down there. This place is the size of 34 football pitches. It's
0:18:50 > 0:18:54mind-boggling. That's some of the parcels down there waiting to be
0:18:54 > 0:19:01shipped. It has been busy here, but the big question for retail is, will
0:19:01 > 0:19:05this entirely manufactured event kick-start festive spending?
0:19:05 > 0:19:08Everywhere you look today, a blizzard of deals from the high
0:19:08 > 0:19:09street right to your inbox.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12Black Friday in full swing.
0:19:12 > 0:19:15It's first light, and we have come out to see who's shopping.
0:19:15 > 0:19:16Forget the stores, we're on the train,
0:19:16 > 0:19:18because it's all about this.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20I've been shopping online this morning.
0:19:20 > 0:19:21Already?
0:19:21 > 0:19:24Yeah, I managed to get a discount for my son
0:19:24 > 0:19:25for a monitor for Christmas.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27I bought a Dyson this morning.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29It seems to be getting bigger and bigger each year.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31I don't know, it's mental.
0:19:31 > 0:19:33I've actually been thinking about it for the past
0:19:33 > 0:19:35week, waiting for today.
0:19:35 > 0:19:39The first opportunity I've got, I've logged on.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42Those orders are already on their way here at Amazon,
0:19:42 > 0:19:44with robots moving thousands of items from the shelves
0:19:44 > 0:19:46to the pickers.
0:19:46 > 0:19:50They've been doing deals all week.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53So too have many others, anything to get shoppers to spend.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55Personal finances are under pressure.
0:19:55 > 0:19:58Consumer confidence is beginning to falter a bit.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01But this is a really important time of the year where Black Friday
0:20:01 > 0:20:04is the starting gun for Christmas, and retailers will be hoping this
0:20:04 > 0:20:07spurs consumers on to spend.
0:20:07 > 0:20:11As the day rolls on, where else are all these orders coming from?
0:20:11 > 0:20:13It's lunchtime, and lots of people are at work.
0:20:13 > 0:20:16But are they also having a little sneaky shop?
0:20:16 > 0:20:21Put your hands up if you have been shopping for Black Friday deals.
0:20:21 > 0:20:25All of you!
0:20:25 > 0:20:28At this small Essex office, Charlie Lauren spent £200.
0:20:28 > 0:20:29Sorry, everybody.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32I was online shopping.
0:20:32 > 0:20:37Just on my normal girls' websites like Missguided, Zara and Topshop.
0:20:37 > 0:20:42Yeah, I did spend quite a lot.
0:20:42 > 0:20:44They are hoping for a lot of spending at this small
0:20:44 > 0:20:47electronics business in Cambridge.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50They have bought half a million of stock to sell -
0:20:50 > 0:20:51exciting, but nerve-racking, too.
0:20:51 > 0:20:56If we don't operate in Black Friday, they are just going to
0:20:56 > 0:20:57buy off someone else.
0:20:57 > 0:21:01It's not an option for us.
0:21:01 > 0:21:02We have to sell on Black Friday.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Doing incredibly well on socks...
0:21:04 > 0:21:07But the boss of this clothing chain isn't taking part.
0:21:07 > 0:21:08For the high street, it is bonkers.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11I can't think of a better word to describe it.
0:21:11 > 0:21:14All it's doing is moving sales from December into November.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16It's not growing the market.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19And everybody is having to sell things at reduced margins.
0:21:19 > 0:21:23As the sun goes down in Leeds, who are the winners on Black Friday?
0:21:23 > 0:21:26Shoppers may feel they have bagged a bargain, but with all these
0:21:26 > 0:21:28discounts, the profits won't be sparkling for many retailers.
0:21:28 > 0:21:37Emma Simpson, BBC News.
0:21:40 > 0:21:42Fly-tipping is on the rise.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45If you want to remove your rubbish legally, it can involve paying
0:21:45 > 0:21:48to hire a skip or paying a licenced contractor to take it away.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51And criminal gangs have spotted an opportunity to make some cash
0:21:51 > 0:21:53by offering cheaper rates and then dumping it unlawfully.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56Last year, councils in England had to deal with more than a million
0:21:56 > 0:21:58illegal dumps on public land, with the clearing up costing local
0:21:58 > 0:22:01authorities £58 million a year.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03Dan Johnson reports.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05Tonight, the scourge creeping across our country.
0:22:05 > 0:22:08It's a real mess, isn't it?
0:22:08 > 0:22:10We investigate the illegal rubbish dumps.
0:22:10 > 0:22:13There's even more of it.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16Can you tell us where the rubbish has come from?
0:22:16 > 0:22:18We witness the endless struggle against criminal gangs.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21By having a piece of land, you then become victim
0:22:21 > 0:22:24to such a horrendous crime.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26Can we talk to you about the rubbish?
0:22:26 > 0:22:28And we confront the fly-tippers.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30And you're going to drive away and leave this rubbish?
0:22:30 > 0:22:32For everyone else to deal with?
0:22:32 > 0:22:36There is abuse and intimidation.
0:22:38 > 0:22:42They are executing a warrant over there.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44In south-east London, bailiffs are reclaiming an old warehouse.
0:22:44 > 0:22:48Evicting a fly-tipping gang who have been living there.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50And just look what they are leaving behind.
0:22:50 > 0:22:54It goes on and on, pile after pile.
0:22:54 > 0:22:59All of this dumped in just five days.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02It is clear most of this is builders' waste, or old furniture
0:23:02 > 0:23:05from house and office clearances.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07It's stuff that should have been disposed of professionally,
0:23:07 > 0:23:09but that would have meant a cost.
0:23:09 > 0:23:13Somebody saved lots of money by dumping it here.
0:23:13 > 0:23:16And the amount that has accumulated in such a short space of time
0:23:16 > 0:23:19is absolutely staggering.
0:23:19 > 0:23:23A court order, an eviction, the problem has been moved on.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25But it's an expensive game of cat and mouse.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28We will probably see these guys in the next couple of weeks,
0:23:28 > 0:23:29and we start the procedure again.
0:23:29 > 0:23:33You just keep going round in circles?
0:23:33 > 0:23:37Just keep going round in circles.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40The last of the gang return to move their vehicles.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43I'm from BBC News, sir.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45Can we ask you about this rubbish?
0:23:45 > 0:23:47Can you tell us where this rubbish has come from?
0:23:47 > 0:23:49Are you just going to leave it?
0:23:49 > 0:23:51You made a real mess here.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53Are you going to clean up?
0:23:53 > 0:23:56No answers.
0:23:56 > 0:24:02No accountability.
0:24:02 > 0:24:04It's like a war zone...
0:24:04 > 0:24:07No sympathy for landowners like Chris.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09You feel violated.
0:24:09 > 0:24:13You feel powerless to do anything about it.
0:24:13 > 0:24:17You want to be a law-abiding citizen, and you stay
0:24:17 > 0:24:21on the borderline just watching your property be trashed.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24He's angry there wasn't more help to stop this.
0:24:24 > 0:24:29It's his land, his clear-up bill.
0:24:29 > 0:24:33On the streets, it's councils that clear up.
0:24:33 > 0:24:35In Croydon, they are collecting more rubbish
0:24:35 > 0:24:38and prosecuting more fly-tippers.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41The government should do a national media campaign to make
0:24:41 > 0:24:43fly-tipping a social stigma, very much like we did with
0:24:43 > 0:24:47the anti-drink and drive campaign.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50And to explain the actual financial costs to taxpayers of clearing up
0:24:50 > 0:24:54all this fly-tipping.
0:24:54 > 0:24:57Taking their vans to be crushed is one of the extra powers granted
0:24:57 > 0:25:02by government to help beat the fly-tippers.
0:25:02 > 0:25:07But still, across the UK, the rubbish just keeps on coming.
0:25:07 > 0:25:14Dan Johnson, BBC News, south London.
0:25:14 > 0:25:17England and Australia seem to be neck and neck after the second day
0:25:17 > 0:25:19of the first Ashes test in Brisbane.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21England were bowled out for 302 in their first innings.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24But then their bowlers reduced the home side to 76-4,
0:25:24 > 0:25:25before an Australian fightback.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27Our sports correspondent Andy Swiss reports from Brisbane.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30After a patient opening day, the Ashes were about to hit
0:25:30 > 0:25:32the fast forward button.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35Long queues outside the Gabba, and at first, England also
0:25:35 > 0:25:37played the waiting game.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40For an hour and a half they were calm, composed.
0:25:40 > 0:25:43A 50 for Dawid Malan.
0:25:43 > 0:25:46What could possibly go wrong?
0:25:46 > 0:25:49Well, pretty much everything as it turned out.
0:25:49 > 0:25:52Malan's swish sparking a collapse in the grand English tradition.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55Losing 6-56.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58Moeen Ali was the next to go as Nathan Lyon sent
0:25:58 > 0:25:59the visitors spinning.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01Chris Woakes was utterly bamboozled.
0:26:01 > 0:26:05Jake Ball, brilliantly caught by David Warner.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08And by the time Stuart Broad holed out, England hadn't
0:26:08 > 0:26:10even lasted the morning.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13All out for 302.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15Well, lunch will be tasting pretty good for these Australian
0:26:15 > 0:26:18fans after that horrible collapse by England.
0:26:18 > 0:26:28Six wickets in barely an hour that transformed the mood of this match.
0:26:30 > 0:26:32But that mood was about to swing once again,
0:26:32 > 0:26:35as the Gabba's glee was silenced.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38Stuart Broad with the breakthrough before a bit of Moeen magic,
0:26:38 > 0:26:40trapping Usman Khawaja.
0:26:40 > 0:26:44Suddenly it was Australia's turn to tumble.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47Warner inexplicably serving up catching practice.
0:26:47 > 0:26:50But they recovered thanks to an unbeaten half-century
0:26:50 > 0:26:53from captain Steve Smith to cap a day of fluctuating,
0:26:53 > 0:26:56fascinating fortunes.
0:26:56 > 0:26:57An enthralling start to this Ashes Series.
0:26:57 > 0:27:02Andy Swiss, BBC News, Brisbane.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13Time for a look at the weather.
0:27:16 > 0:27:19We are in the middle of a modest cold snap, some frost around in the
0:27:19 > 0:27:23next few days in the morning and it already feels chilly out there in
0:27:23 > 0:27:27many areas.In the last couple of days we have had snow showers across
0:27:27 > 0:27:30Scottish ales that will continue across the course of the evening.
0:27:30 > 0:27:36Temperatures dipping to freezing in many towns and villages with the
0:27:36 > 0:27:43risk of ice in northern and western parts of the UK. The scene tomorrow
0:27:43 > 0:27:45morning, cold air from the Norwegian Sea is digging down into northern
0:27:45 > 0:27:54parts of France and Iberia. There will be lots of crisp sunshine for
0:27:54 > 0:27:58us, and it will look beautiful, but very cold. This is roundabout
0:27:58 > 0:28:03lunchtime. Some wintry showers across the Scottish hills. One or
0:28:03 > 0:28:08two showers across Northern Ireland and Wales. For many, Central,
0:28:08 > 0:28:12Eastern and southern areas, basically what you have is a
0:28:12 > 0:28:16beautiful, crisp, sparkling and chilly autumn day. Temperatures in
0:28:16 > 0:28:19London briefly touching six or 7 degrees. There will be a breeze as
0:28:19 > 0:28:24well, so it will feel colder. No real change through tomorrow
0:28:24 > 0:28:27afternoon with showers here and there. For many of us, a clear
0:28:27 > 0:28:32Saturday night on the way and that means Sunday will start frosty once
0:28:32 > 0:28:35again. A few showers around on Sunday and
