that a deal could be agreed on the union disputed nuclear programme as | :00:00. | :00:23. | |
John Kerry and other foreign ministers suddenly head to Geneva. | :00:24. | :00:29. | |
Yasser Arafat did not die a natural death. The reaction of Palestinian | :00:30. | :00:33. | |
officials to the Swiss scientific report into his death. The accused | :00:34. | :00:40. | |
Israel of being involved. Yasser Arafat was killed and Israel had | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
killed Yasser Arafat. And how do actors make violent scenes on stage | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
look convincing? We meet the fight director who teaches performers how | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
to kick, punch and stab realistically and without causing | :00:53. | :00:53. | |
harm. Haiyan is a category five super | :00:54. | :01:29. | |
storm with torrential rain and waves of up to six metres high. It has | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
brought severe flooding. Three people are so far known to have | :01:34. | :01:40. | |
died. The BBC has this update. This is what a typhoon looks like. | :01:41. | :01:44. | |
Battering the central Philippines and bringing flooding and, as you | :01:45. | :01:48. | |
can see, shredding through homes and buildings. The Philippines is used | :01:49. | :01:56. | |
to typhoons but not like this. With wind of over 300, is an hour, this | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
typhoon might be one of the most powerful on record. Such powerful | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
wind and flooding has inevitably brought down power lines, cut | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
medication is and caused landslides. Desperate efforts to escape the | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
worst effects of the storm. The authorities warn that more than 12 | :02:16. | :02:19. | |
million people are at risk, up to 1 million have | :02:20. | :02:37. | |
million people are at risk, up to 1 days. As the fast-moving storm slept | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
through flimsy homes and villages, some were trying to pick up the | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
pieces of their lives. But many of the worst affected areas are cut | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
off. There are fears that the full scope of this devastation is yet to | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
be revealed. A typhoon last year left more than 1000 dead and caused | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
damage estimated at $1 billion. Typhoon Haiyan is expected to move | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
on into the side China Sea and on to Vietnam and China. The Chinese | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
authorities are tracking it closely. This sees are already beginning to | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
stir alongside -- along the southern coast as shipping was warned to | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
return to port. But as a full force of the storm continues to lash the | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
Philippines, authorities were hoping their precautions would limit the | :03:26. | :03:27. | |
ultimate impact on people 's lives. their precautions would limit the | :03:28. | :03:47. | |
scale, category five as a hurricane is violent. Super typhoon. I have | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
not seen bigger. It is a very destructive monster. How much | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
damage? A lot. Let's look at the satellite pictures. It has been | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
developing across the Pacific for a good week, and we have been watching | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
this monster looming. Perfect conditions for it to become so | :04:09. | :04:14. | |
intense and power. -- powerful. It has worked across the Philippines, | :04:15. | :04:17. | |
almost back into the South China Sea, if you were hours before that. | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
The wind is at its most powerful near the eye of the storm. That is | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
where we had those 300 kilometre gusts. Even 100 miles away, the wind | :04:27. | :04:34. | |
was gusting at 170. Even in Manila, we have seen severe gales. It is | :04:35. | :04:56. | |
was gusting at 170. Even in Manila, one foot of rain. Hence the flash | :04:57. | :04:58. | |
flooding and the mudslides and that will go through even further. There | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
are reports of waves at sea of 15 metres. Unlike most typhoons, this | :05:04. | :05:11. | |
is not last much energy. It is heading towards Vietnam and are | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
still very powerful. It has had a lot of water between the islands to | :05:15. | :05:19. | |
feed it. Our next concern is Vietnam and they have the remains of a | :05:20. | :05:23. | |
typhoon last week and had another tropical depression this week and | :05:24. | :05:28. | |
this one looks set for Sunday and it could still be very strong indeed. | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
Category four, that is what the forecasters say as it hits northern | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
Vietnam. We will turn our attention to that later today. Those | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
incredible figures of the depth of water but also the power of the | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
wind, our instruments are strong enough to measure this? I | :05:48. | :06:07. | |
wind, our instruments are strong typhoon. There is increasing | :06:08. | :06:09. | |
optimism that international talks about Iran's's UKIP programme or on | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
the verge of a breakthrough. Douglas had been holding talks in Geneva | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
since yesterday and now the negotiations have moved up a gear. | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
The US Secretary of State is on his way to Geneva and also his | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
counterparts from Britain, France and Germany. But the Russian Foreign | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
Minister says he is not going. There is intense speculation that a deal | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
could be close. What will happen once they arrive? --. At the moment, | :06:33. | :06:44. | |
and agreement is more likely. That is why foreign ministers want to | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
have a look at what it might mean. Essentially, we are getting the | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
possible outline or silhouette of a limited first step on a series of | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
confidence building measures. It might be that I | :06:58. | :07:15. | |
confidence building measures. It reflect on where we have been and | :07:16. | :07:20. | |
where you are in Geneva, how remarkable is this, potentially? | :07:21. | :07:26. | |
Potentially, this is a symbolic change and a change, I think, if | :07:27. | :07:32. | |
agreement is signed up to. If things follow through. In 2009 was | :07:33. | :07:39. | |
potential agreement and that collapsed and in 2010 there was also | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
a potential deal and that collapsed as well. I do not think that many | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
people will be getting excited by the signing of this deal, it is the | :07:49. | :07:51. | |
demonstration that is the important thing. James Reynolds in Geneva. | :07:52. | :07:57. | |
What caused the death of the then Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's | :07:58. | :08:04. | |
Palestinian officials have confirmed that he did not die a natural death | :08:05. | :08:07. | |
of ill health that he did not die a natural death | :08:08. | :08:28. | |
polonium were in his body and they could not have been absorbed | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
accidentally. In a slide show, during the presentation, they ask | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
these questions... Can we exclude polonium as the cause of death? The | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
answer was no. Are we sure that lonely and was the cause of death? | :08:43. | :08:48. | |
The answer was no. Yasser Arafat died in a military hospital in | :08:49. | :08:51. | |
France nine years ago. That was after suddenly being taken ill at | :08:52. | :08:57. | |
his compound. It is one year since the late President's remains were | :08:58. | :09:02. | |
exhumed and about 60 samples were taken. They were divided between | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
Swiss and Russian investigators and a French team carrying out forensic | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
enquiries at his widow 's request. The Swiss scientists examined | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
samples from remains and personal items. They find the traces | :09:16. | :09:35. | |
samples from remains and personal consistent with polonium poisoning. | :09:36. | :09:41. | |
Israel denies any involvement in any of this. They said that the forensic | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
evidence supported the poisoning theory but they could not be | :09:47. | :09:50. | |
conclusive. I should say that is not from the Israelis, that has come | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
from the scientists so let's not get confused. That is here how the | :09:55. | :10:00. | |
Palestinian committee used these findings to point the finger at | :10:01. | :10:06. | |
Israel. TRANSLATION: It is not important for me to say that Yasser | :10:07. | :10:12. | |
Arafat died because of polonium or another cause. The elements I have | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
at my disposal as a member of a security commission informed me that | :10:17. | :10:23. | |
Yasser Arafat was killed and Israel had killed Yasser Arafat. | :10:24. | :10:47. | |
Yasser Arafat was killed and Israel the microphone was switched off and | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
it was still light. They were heard saying that Yasser Arafat should | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
disappear. This is what the Israelis had said. These are not my words. I | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
would like to reiterate that Israel is responsible for Yasser Arafat's | :11:01. | :11:08. | |
blood. Just to confirm, Israel denies any responsibility. Still to | :11:09. | :11:13. | |
come... We look at the economic changes that China's leaders might | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
announce at the four-day Communist Party gathering which starts on | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
Saturday. Any reforms could drastically alter China's future. In | :11:21. | :11:30. | |
Canada, the Mayor of Toronto, Rob Ford, has made another apology, this | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
time for a video of him making threats to murder someone. It's the | :11:35. | :11:37. | |
latest controversy to engulf the Mayor, who this week admitted | :11:38. | :12:04. | |
It is not clear who this is to reckon that when this was filmed. | :12:05. | :12:11. | |
But it is yet another embarrassment for the already embattled Mayor. | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
Shortly after this video became public, Rob Ford spoke to the media | :12:17. | :12:23. | |
and said he was sorry. Do you need help? Is a time to ask for help? I | :12:24. | :12:31. | |
just want to come out and tell you that I saw the video. It is | :12:32. | :12:40. | |
extremely embarrassing. Behold world will see this and I don't have a | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
problem with that but it is extremely embarrassing. Despite | :12:46. | :12:46. | |
these revelations, extremely embarrassing. Despite | :12:47. | :13:07. | |
He was elected as the Mayor in 2010. And he has a strong and loyal | :13:08. | :13:12. | |
support base. Many say that is the reason he refuses to leave. Speak to | :13:13. | :13:16. | |
people here and a large proportion will say that Rob Ford is damaging | :13:17. | :13:21. | |
Toronto's reputation. This is a video. What we response? It is | :13:22. | :13:29. | |
another example of just how pathetic this man is. It is almost enough to | :13:30. | :13:33. | |
elicit some sympathy from me but I am beyond that. That is ridiculous. | :13:34. | :13:39. | |
Very unprofessional. You're trying to be a role model. So the reality | :13:40. | :13:45. | |
show, as one News Channel describes it, goes on. The media continue to | :13:46. | :13:50. | |
demand answers from the Mayor and many others demand his resignation. | :13:51. | :13:51. | |
For now, he is still in the job. many others demand his resignation. | :13:52. | :14:15. | |
landfall as torn the central islands of the Philippines. Palestinian | :14:16. | :14:22. | |
officials say that two reports into the death of Yasser Arafat confirm | :14:23. | :14:25. | |
that he did not die a natural death. They say that Israel is the only | :14:26. | :14:33. | |
suspect, which Israel denies. A political meeting begins on Saturday | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
in China which could dramatically alter the part the country takes | :14:38. | :14:40. | |
four years to come. Known dryly as a denim of the commonest arty, it is | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
expected that major changes to the country 's economy will be announced | :14:46. | :14:46. | |
to ring the four-day conference. What issues will the Government | :14:47. | :15:07. | |
tackle? It is a mystery. In China, there are some | :15:08. | :15:08. | |
tackle? It is a mystery. In China, an independent survey. Top of the | :15:09. | :15:31. | |
worries a rise in prices. Six out of 10 people said that was a major | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
problem. The real costs are booming industrial production. The growth | :15:38. | :15:42. | |
has come at a cost - of an swamping this city and many others with air | :15:43. | :15:49. | |
pollution so extreme that breathing it for one day is considered | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
hazardous to human health. Clean air days like this one are few and | :15:55. | :16:00. | |
far between. Another key concern, it centred around rising inequality. | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
A yawning gap between the rich and the poor. The top 10% of households | :16:06. | :16:11. | |
in China earn 20 times more than the bottom 10% - a big difference. | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
The good news... the bottom 10% - a big difference. | :16:16. | :16:36. | |
be better off than their parents. Let's get more on our main story, | :16:37. | :16:40. | |
the typhoon in the Philippines. It is the strongest storm the sheer. | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
It may be the most powerful to make landfall ever anywhere in the world. | :16:46. | :16:58. | |
-- this year. Let's go now to a director of Save the Children in | :16:59. | :17:01. | |
the Philippines. What reports are you getting? It is affecting a very | :17:02. | :17:07. | |
large area of the Philippines. I was talking to our people on the | :17:08. | :17:11. | |
ground in the worst affected area this morning. They were saying the | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
winds were so fierce they were shattering the windows in the rooms | :17:17. | :17:21. | |
they were in. After that communication breakdown. | :17:22. | :17:25. | |
Communication for the most affected areas are not up and running. What | :17:26. | :17:45. | |
Communication for the most affected a bit I've been like this. -- a big | :17:46. | :17:52. | |
tide soon. The impact on children it is devastating. It might have | :17:53. | :17:58. | |
huge impact on them. It is a bad health and survival. If they have | :17:59. | :18:03. | |
injuries, where houses are dismantled because of strong winds. | :18:04. | :18:09. | |
Afterwards it is about making sure they get food, shelter, get a | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
proper medication if needed. Many children are really scared at this | :18:17. | :18:20. | |
point in time for a duck these winds a really scary. That is also | :18:21. | :18:24. | |
something we are working with them on. -- in time. I hit a phone | :18:25. | :18:31. | |
ringing at the moment but let me ask you about preparation for this. | :18:32. | :18:37. | |
There have been a lot of typhoons and | :18:38. | :18:37. | |
preparedness among the families. We do see that many of them, when it | :18:38. | :18:58. | |
happens to them, they're not as prepared as one would think they | :18:59. | :19:03. | |
would be in a country like the Philippines. It is not necessarily | :19:04. | :19:08. | |
the same areas that are affected ear after years of it is not really | :19:09. | :19:16. | |
the same people. Thank you very much for sparing time to speak with | :19:17. | :19:21. | |
me. To France where the credit rating has been cut one notch from | :19:22. | :19:26. | |
a a to aid A-plus. -- de increasing. They are protesting at | :19:27. | :20:08. | |
a new Eco tax which might still be introduced in the New Year. It | :20:09. | :20:13. | |
reflects the dissatisfaction we are seeing Countrywide at the moment. | :20:14. | :20:19. | |
91% of the French say they want to see President Francois Hollande | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
change policy. He does not seem to be able to turn in any direction | :20:25. | :20:29. | |
for support at the moment. It is another bad day on a long list of | :20:30. | :20:37. | |
bad days. There is a trade deficit which is worsening. Then this news | :20:38. | :20:43. | |
from S that they are reducing from AA Plas to AA. Why is that | :20:44. | :20:50. | |
important? The credit rating speaks of the credit worthiness of the | :20:51. | :20:55. | |
country - its ability to meet financial commitments. | :20:56. | :21:14. | |
country - its ability to meet again. That is bad news for France | :21:15. | :21:18. | |
and the economic minister. Other countries have turned things around. | :21:19. | :21:22. | |
What is the way in which President Francois Hollande and his | :21:23. | :21:25. | |
government will react? Are they going to be able to blink, are | :21:26. | :21:29. | |
faced with this quest to much you would imagine so, given the poor | :21:30. | :21:33. | |
state of the approval ratings at the moment. -- faced with this? | :21:34. | :21:40. | |
They have turned around unemployment much which is at a | :21:41. | :21:48. | |
record high, by the end of the year. The only way they would be able to | :21:49. | :21:51. | |
do that is by manufacturing the figures, it seems that it looks | :21:52. | :21:56. | |
impossible to change the picture in just over two months. At the moment | :21:57. | :22:00. | |
it is a problem of communication. He has to communicate to the French | :22:01. | :22:05. | |
people the plan. It does that seem to be | :22:06. | :22:23. | |
people the plan. It does that seem -- it is an impossible problem. It | :22:24. | :22:26. | |
is really a case of getting everyone on board in France and | :22:27. | :22:29. | |
convincing them there is a coherent plan which will bring the country | :22:30. | :22:36. | |
back to gross. Schoolchildren in South Korea will be breathing a | :22:37. | :22:41. | |
collective sigh of relief. 650,000 of them have been sitting the | :22:42. | :22:48. | |
annual college entrance exam. The focus on the test is so intense | :22:49. | :22:52. | |
that planes have even been banned from taking off and landing by the | :22:53. | :22:59. | |
exam is under way. This report from Don't Make Me Over. Long before | :23:00. | :23:03. | |
daybreak they gathered to cheer on their friends and schoolmates ahead | :23:04. | :23:07. | |
of the most important test of their lives for Derbyshire, at 650,000 | :23:08. | :23:13. | |
students took the exam. To ease the traffic, government workers were | :23:14. | :23:15. | |
asked to stop later traffic, government workers were | :23:16. | :23:36. | |
their nerves, or phones and mobile devices were collected. Last year | :23:37. | :23:42. | |
come up nearly 80 exam papers were disqualified for not handing in | :23:43. | :23:49. | |
their phones. During the nine our exam, planes were banned from take- | :23:50. | :23:55. | |
off or landing for 40 minutes and students could concentrate. Any | :23:56. | :23:59. | |
equally stressed parents spent the day in nearby temples and churches | :24:00. | :24:05. | |
to pray for good exam results for children. Examinations are seen as | :24:06. | :24:08. | |
an important stepping stone to future careers. The pressure to | :24:09. | :24:14. | |
earn a high score is enormous. Koreans are famous for aggressive | :24:15. | :24:20. | |
studying and private tuition spending but the country still | :24:21. | :24:23. | |
struggles scene without anyone getting hurt? | :24:24. | :24:50. | |
Alison de Burgh has the answer. She became Britain's first ever female | :24:51. | :24:52. | |
fight director ten years ago, when her acting tutor told her she could | :24:53. | :24:55. | |
fight like a man. She's been explaining the art of | :24:56. | :24:58. | |
choreographing every last lunge, slap and punch. You come in earlier. | :24:59. | :25:04. | |
It is about understanding choreography. It is about | :25:05. | :25:07. | |
understanding motivation and being able to teach people. Getting them | :25:08. | :25:18. | |
to perform as best as they can. A fight director choreographed action | :25:19. | :25:24. | |
for plays, musicals and operas. We teach actors have to fight and make | :25:25. | :25:29. | |
it look as if they have made of the moves themselves. -- made up as I | :25:30. | :25:35. | |
got moves themselves. -- made up as I | :25:36. | :25:54. | |
can only run through this once, so please go slowly and carefully and | :25:55. | :26:00. | |
make sure everything is accurate. Today it is the Prince of Denmark | :26:01. | :26:04. | |
and it has been done by the guise of the National Theatre. I am busy | :26:05. | :26:09. | |
rehearsing their fights to make sure it is safe will start we are | :26:10. | :26:15. | |
very short of time. I only have time to run each fight once a bus- | :26:16. | :26:25. | |
stop -- fight once. You start from the script. You read it first and | :26:26. | :26:30. | |
have an understanding of the characters and why they are | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
fighting. Then you meet the director and asked the overall view | :26:35. | :26:39. | |
of the show. Then you ask the actors how they want to play their | :26:40. | :26:42. | |
characters will start from talking to the actors, you draw the fight | :26:43. | :26:45. | |
from them. | :26:46. | :27:06. |
