Three Kenyans detained by British colonial authorities during the Mau

Mau uprising, can claim compensation for torture.

In a rare agreement, the UN security council condemns Syria for

a cross border mortar attack which killed five Turkish civilians.

for its most profitable year ever Within the last hour the British

government has said it will appeal against a High Court's decision to

allow three Kenyans to claim for Torgeir compensation during the Mau

Mau Uprising. Only the High Court had ruled they would be able to sue

the government for compensation. Their lawyers hailed the judgment

as historic. A judge at the High Court said the evidence for the

case was significant -- addition to perceive -- proceed. Our

correspondent is at the Kenyan Human Rights Commission in Nairobi.

They are singing, dancing, this may only be the start of another long,

protracted legal process but as far as many of these are concerned, it

is about 50 Mau Mau veterans, this is already a significant victory. I

spoke to one of their number just now and he said he hoped the

British government would settle out of court so that they wouldn't have

to go through another protracted legal process, but certainly for

the moment the atmosphere is one of jubilation.

With everybody preferred a settled out of court? On one hand and

significantly a lot of the alleged victims are still with us but they

are not as young as they used to be at the British government is

already on record as having said yes, this did happen.

That is right. They are not as young as they used to be, there

were four cloners to begin with the one of them died -- claimants.

These are elderly people, and many of them want it settled quickly.

What they say they want is an apology and some kind of welfare

package. For some of these people who are old, who have had terrible

things happen to them, many of in strange circumstances.

The feeling in London is this will probably take place at a High Court.

If you are elderly, making that journey from Kenya, moving around

the world, it is not an easy undertaking in your 50s, 60s or 70s.

These people are in the 70s and 80s, it is not easy and cheap. They

don't have a lot of money. They did get support from the Kenyan

government. That would be very difficult for them. That is why

there is this push towards an out- of-court settlement. For the moment,

it is just pure joy here. People are very pleased at what looks like

at least an intermediate tree step in a process that has already been

going for three years. The UN Security Council has come to

a rare agreement on Syria condemning in the strongest terms

the Serbian mortar attack which killed five people in a Turkish

border village, Akcakale. The statement was agreed despite

Russian objections to an earlier draft version describing the attack

as a threat to international security. Within the last half an

hour I have been talking from the line to Ankara -- from Ankara.

The first question should be posed to the Syrians died, they started

shelling -- Syrian side. Yesterday they were shelling and the day

before that it was huge and paid for which is why we had to

retaliate. We don't want a war, we don't want to declare war, but we

have to get prepared for any eventuality.

You wanted an apology from Damascus, you got it, you wanted a guarantee

from Damascus this will not happen again, you got it. Do you believe

what the Syrian government is saying?

I don't have the information of the official apology, but what they

practice, they need to preach it. It is important for them not to

repeat such kind of violations otherwise we will again have to

retaliate. What the Turkish government in

Ankara feel a little bit more comfortable if the rest of the

world may be got its act together a little bit more say, when it comes

to the idea of these buffer zones and crucially when it comes to the

idea of what to do with the internally displaced in Syria, and

the people who want to get across the border into Turkey to get away

from what is happening inside Syria. We don't have a decision at the

moment. International community's should do more to protect Syrians

in Syria, keep the refugees -- give the refugees assistants and give

assistance to neighbouring countries, first and foremost my

close on 200,000, today, 5,000 and more. The fighting against his own

people, this was seen to continue. We're talking about US unemployment

rate.. As President Obama recovers from

the mauling on the economy he received from challenger Mitt

Romney in Wednesday night's TV debate he may have more to ponder

later. Payroll numbers are expected to show America's jobless rate

ticked back up to 8.2% in September having fallen to 8.1% in August. It

would be the 44th straight month in which unemployment has topped 8%

despite the government's attempts to help create jobs. More than 23

million Americans are either unemployed, stuck in part-time jobs

or have given up looking for work. Ben Thompson reports from New York.

Last year Alison was one of more than 8% of Americans out of work.

Despite having a college degree and years of experience she struggled

to find a job. Until this new restaurant in Manhattan's West

village opened up, and offered her a job. The most discouraging thing

you can do is go to an open call. There will be up to 200 people

waiting to interview for two or three jobs. It is so hard to stand

up, even if you have a great resonate. She is one of the 50

staff taken on by this restaurant owner. He already has one

restaurant nearby, but thanks to a loan from the government last year

he has been able to buy and renovate a second property,

creating new jobs in the process. But for the small business jobs at

and the loans given to us, this restaurant would not exist. This

building would be vacant, derelict, not contributing to federal, state

household incomes, an eyesore to the neighbourhood, or that will

make the difference between this Budget happening and never existing.

Despite success stories new residents by the government to

kick-start the economy have failed to dent the stubbornly high jobless

rate and it has been above 8% for 43 consecutive months. That figure

is being watched more closely than ever as the race for the White

House enters its final weeks. No president has ever been re-elected

with unemployment so high, and optimism in the labour market so

low. Barack Obama's rivals are keen to point out for every person

without a job last month, four gave up looking for work altogether.

Economists say that is because firms are reluctant to hire because

lawmakers cannot agree on a tax and spending goal. I am not really

expecting to be materially lifted into we reach that goal. There is a

decent chance we will be living with uncertainty well into next

year, even though we will know the outcome of the election.

Back at the restaurant there are plans to hire more staff, and

eventually open a third location. But that relies on Americans'

feeling better about the economy, and more willing to spend. Until

then, a new jobs will be hard to come by.

Samsung has done it again, posting a fourth straight quarter of record

profits. That puts the electronics giant on course for its best year

ever. Stuart Miles explains why the

company has been doing very well. It is selling a lot of friends,

televisions, fridges, lots of different things, -- a lot of

telephones. It is doing a lot of marketing. Some people would say it

is doing so much it is hitting its profits. We have just come out of

the Olympics with in that quarter, the rumours are they spent $2.7

billion around that and other events within the summer. That is a

lot of money. It is obviously paying off in the back they are

selling a lot of telephones. What is interesting is they have a lot

of telephones, laptops, tablets, still to come for the rest of the

year. And that, they feel, will be enough

to take on Apple. Yes, there is the feeling the other

phone manufacturers are getting edged out. Nokia, AGC, and at the

moment it seems unstoppable. Willetts margins get squeezed as

the competition gets tougher? -- will its margins. There will be a

new Galaxy, they could have some issues if all the pattern -- patent

trials they are experiencing come to fruition. It will don't them if

they have got to pay out a large sum which they are probably

expected to do so, but they have lots of product people still want,

be seen to have hit a good formula which is carrying them through. At

the moment I cannot see anything really changing.

They sell a lot of components. They sell components to Apple. They are

splitting away from that slightly. Apple are looking to try and make

sure they have the entire production line themselves, trying

to use less and less Samsung products, partly because of the

sense they are doing battle with them in the courts, but because it

likes to control the end to end production of their product. If

that continues that way it could affect that side of the business.

They have put a lot of eggs in the smart phone division, but at the

moment the product they are producing people was the one them.

-- people will still want them. Indian airline Kingfisher says it

will ground its fleet for another week after failing to resolve a

dispute with staff over unpaid salaries. They have not been paid

for over six months as the airline struggles with mounting losses.

Kingfisher, which was India's number two airline a year ago, has

debts of almost 1.3 billion dollars and has not paid some staff for

seven months. There was a meeting between the

lenders who decided to release some money so that they could pay off

their employers, but a section over here in Mumbai went out on a march

protesting from the airport to their headquarters and made it very

clear. As they do some of them that until all their deals were done

they were that resume work. The talks failed. They were supposed to

meet in different cities today, but the meeting never took place.

Clearly now it is a stand-off, the employers are now coming back until

the salaries are paid, and the airline doesn't have that money, so

it seems like this will get extended. What about the plans that

show at the end of the airline, the plan see her for raising money?

-- owner, the plan he had. They also own a liquor business. He is

in talks with the edgier to sell stakes. If that money can be used

in the airline to revive it and look at getting in a foreign

carrier, recently the Indian government allow foreign carriers

in foreign airlines be given the state of affairs it really looks

unlikely at this point in time. The only point that -- the only hope is

this drinks deal. If you look at it as a stand-alone business there is

no chance of survival. What is happening to passengers?

Have they been dealt with? Not really. The passengers are very

angry because in the last two days a lot of them had gone for

reimbursements, a lot are still waiting and with other fights fall,

they are finding it difficult to travel.

Let's have a look at the markets, Fairly optimistic about the jobless

You're watching BBC World News. Still to come: The extremist Muslim

cleric, Abu Hamza, is making a last-ditch attempt to avoid

extradition to the United States. Do you expect me to talk? No, Mr

Bond, I expect you to die. A great survivor. From the

beginnings 50 years ago, to his latest incarnation, we talk to the

producers of the new James Bond The first stage of a giant radio

telescope that will capture images of the universe with unprecedented

clarity has officially opened. The Australian Square Kilometre Array

Pathfinder is part of a much wider space telescope programme, as our

correspondent in Australia, Duncan Kennedy reports from Sydney.

300 kilometres from the nearest town, the first dish has been a

project which aims to look back to the beginning of time. The opening

stage of what will become the world's largest radio telescope, 36

and 10 made to start with will allow astronomers to explore the

birth of the universe. The instruments will be 50 times more

sensitive than today's telescopes, to give answers to the most

profound questions. Understanding the creation and evolution of

galaxies, the origins of magnetism in the universe, to operate systems

like this, it is crucial to the future. Australia is building on

that legacy. These structures make- up the test bed of a larger radio

telescope that will stretch across vast areas of Australia and South

Africa. The two countries chosen this year after a search for the

perfect location. There will be thousands of these instruments

linked together by fibre-optics. are predicting in the early stages

of discovery, of just these 36 dishes, we will discover another

700,000 super galaxies we haven't seen before. I can't and even

envisage what we will discover. whole project is so big it won't be

completed until 2024. Whilst Australia and South Africa won the

right to stage this infrastructure, the information will be shared by

scientists around the world. The Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder,

the official name of this Super telescope, it is a 9 billion dollar

project over 50 years. The computers needed will be the

equivalent of 1 billion desktops. The infrastructure and ambitions of

this endeavour are on a galactic This is BBC World News. The

headlines: The British government will appeal the court ruling, which

gave the go-ahead for a compensation claim by three Kenyans,

tortured by colonial authorities during the Mau Mau uprising of the

1950s. Turkey has told the BBC it will

respond robustly to any further attacks on its territory by Syria.

The UN Security Council has condemned Syria for a mortar attack,

which killed five Turkish civilians. In the UK, High Court judges are

due to deliver a final ruling today, following a last-ditch legal move

by Abu Hamza and four other terror suspects to halt their extradition

to the US. Lawyers for the cleric have argued that his deteriorating

mental health means he will be unfit to plead at a trial, and

follow the proceedings. Other suspects awaiting the judgement

include Babar Ahmad, who has been held at the Long Lartin Prison in

Worcestershire for eight years. Our correspondent Ben Ando has been

following events from Long Lartin Prison in Worcestershire, and he

told me what arguments were being put forward by the suspects.

Abu Hamza is claiming, due to a deterioration in his mental health

partly brought on by the regime in which he is imprisoned, where he is

a woken every hour for a search, has meant he is suffering from

clinical depression, that he cannot concentrate and for that reason he

may be unfit to stand trial. His lawyers are saying he should be

allowed to remain in the UK to undergo a scan and other medical

assessments to enable them to properly rule whether he is fit to

understand any charges against him. However, the judges who will give

their ruling today, in earlier hearings, have suggested for that

very reason, there is little reason to delay justice, if anything, any

kind of legal proceedings he they face should have done as quickly as

they can, if this is a deteriorating condition. Two other

suspects, Babar Ahmad and Syed Talha Ahsan, a businessman in the

UK has tried to bring a private prosecution against them arguing

they should be tried in this country. Again, that seemed to be

an argument which will not hold sway with the two judges, ruling in

about an hour. What happens then is those five can then be extradited

to the United States from Britain. We assume they will be taken from

his prison by the Prison Service to an airfield where they will be

flown to the United States to face whatever legal proceedings will

take place there. The police in Mid Wales have

arrested a main suspect a suspicion of the murder of a pulled Jones. --

April. This news has devastated the local

community of Machynlleth. They had hoped in the last four days of

searching that they would find this a little five-year-old girl alive,

she has been missing since Monday evening. She suffers from cerebral

palsy, a vulnerable child. But no signs of her. The news that Mark

Bridger has now been arrested on suspicion of murder rather than

child abduction, means that police don't have any hopes left that she

will be found alive. The local people have been gathering here it

in Machynlleth it every day, wanting to do their bit, searching

the mountains and river and forests. In a way, they have wanted to show

that they hadn't given up any hope. So, it now seems that the search is

not for this little girl but for her body. I can hear police

helicopters above. There are police divers and coastguards on the River

Dyffi, which has been swollen with a lot of rain. The indication is

that maybe they think her body will be some work in that river. The

other problem is, we are a mile from the coast, the River duffing

macro leads into the Irish Sea. The chances are that her body may never

be found. James Bond is celebrating his

birthday today. It's exactly 50 years since the first film Dr No

was released in cinemas. Agent 007 has become the hero of one of the

most influential movie series ever. I spoke earlier, from the Pinewood

Studios, to the producers of the latest film, Skyfall. Barbara

Broccoli is the daughter of Cubby Broccoli, the producer of first

film in the franchise, and many others. And Michael Wilson, who is

her half-brother. Barbara Broccoli told me first about how they've

managed to maintain the appeal of 007 over the past five decades.

I guess we set off each time trying to make the very best Bond film we

possibly can. It all starts with the screenplay, the director, cast.

We try and create an exciting story with action, adventure. Gadgets,

goals, all the things which are considered to be important in a

Bond film. Michael, does Skyfall tick all of those boxes for you?

think it does begin with the story, Ian Fleming created a great

character. The writers want to take him on a great journey. From there,

we develop all of the other elements. Action, the goals and

gadgets. Barbara, as a producer of such an expensive movie, it can be

a long Labour of love just putting together the package of financing.

One remembers when the economic crisis hit in 2000 and it, there

was talk of no more James Bond. How have you got that money in place?

Actually, my father and his partner made a deal in 1961 with United

artists. That deal has stayed in place for 50 years, although the

studios have changed to MGM. They have been our partners, and on

Skyfall. We have had a very good relationship with them for 50 years.

Michael, who is your favourite James Bond, you are not allowed to

say Daniel Craig! It is like people who get married several times and

they ask who is their favourite spouse, and they say, the current

one. So that is the right answer. Each of the actors, each of them

have done a great job over the years of recreating this character

for their own period of time. The Barbara, as an actor, what would

the appeal be? Pierce Brosnan, he said he realised, I am James Bond!

George Lazenby will not talk about having been James Bond. Well, this

year, we have a documentary which has just come out, it is about the

history of the 50 years. Most of the James Bonds speak of their

experience, George told extensively about his role. Pierce Brosnan,

also, he mentions the fact, more men have walked on the moon than

have played James Bond, so it is an exclusive club.
