:00:08. > :00:13.Angry protests as survivors of the Grenfell Tower fire
:00:14. > :00:21.vent their frustration at the authorities.
:00:22. > :00:23.Demonstrators storm council offices and march in Westminster demanding
:00:24. > :00:35.Government is making money available, we are ensuring we will
:00:36. > :00:39.get the bottom of what's happened, we will ensure people are rehoused,
:00:40. > :00:40.we need to make sure that actually happens.
:00:41. > :00:43.Jeremy Corbyn warns it's not enough and says the public enquiry must be
:00:44. > :00:45.wide-ranging enough to get to the truth.
:00:46. > :00:48.Hundreds of mourners attend a late-night vigil for the dead
:00:49. > :01:03.and missing as the search for victims enters its fourth day.
:01:04. > :01:06.Good morning, it's Saturday the 17th of June.
:01:07. > :01:12.Seven American navy crew are missing as a US warship collides
:01:13. > :01:16.with a container ship off the coast of Japan.

:01:28. > :01:29.but two Englishmen, Paul Casey and Tommy Fleetwood,
:01:30. > :01:33.are part of a four-way tie for the lead at the US Open.
:01:34. > :01:48.Good morning. It will be hotter still today and the first of if you
:01:49. > :01:52.hot days for many of us, with high levels of UV, very high in the

:01:55. > :01:58.Angry protests have been held in London as residents demand
:01:59. > :02:05.support for those affected by the Grenfell Tower Fire.
:02:06. > :02:09.The government has pledged ?5 million to help victims but Labour
:02:10. > :02:10.says it isn't enough. Around 70 people are thought
:02:11. > :02:14.to be dead or missing and last night London came together in grief
:02:15. > :02:24.with a candlelight vigil. A moment to grieve. For a community
:02:25. > :02:29.still coming to terms with what has happened this week. Side by side,
:02:30. > :02:34.hundreds held a two-minute silence. Because we've done a candle vigil we
:02:35. > :02:39.stopped a riot. Earlier Rhondda kids were getting angry because no one is
:02:40. > :02:42.communicating what is going on. There is no co-ordination at the
:02:43. > :02:46.moment. I've been here for three days and I haven't seen one council
:02:47. > :02:53.official tone up here and take responsibility and say, right, we
:02:54. > :02:57.need to organise. They don't. And that anger came to a head earlier
:02:58. > :03:01.on, with protesters storming Kensington and Chelsea Town Hall,
:03:02. > :03:07.demanding more information and calling for justice. In Westminster,
:03:08. > :03:10.large crowds gathered, picking their way to Downing Street before
:03:11. > :03:17.marching along Regent Street to the BBC's headquarters, with a clear
:03:18. > :03:20.message to the Prime Minister, who yesterday, protected behind police
:03:21. > :03:24.officers, met victims and volunteers at a local church. But her
:03:25. > :03:30.appearance didn't go down well with and boiling over outside. Mrs May
:03:31. > :03:34.has announced ?5 million to help those affected, Thomas into re-
:03:35. > :03:39.everyone and get to the bottom of what happened. But with so many
:03:40. > :03:44.still missing, others dead or feared dead, the questions keep growing,
:03:45. > :03:49.but the answers are simply not there.
:03:50. > :03:53.And Frankie joins us now from London.
:03:54. > :03:59.The search is entering its fourth day of course, but as we saw there
:04:00. > :04:06.is growing anger amongst people affected? Yes, that's it. There are
:04:07. > :04:13.plenty of questions still unanswered and that's why at the moment three
:04:14. > :04:17.investigations are ongoing. As we speak, one is being carried out by
:04:18. > :04:21.the fire rescue service to find out exactly why this fire started and
:04:22. > :04:24.why it spread so quickly and secondly criminal investigations
:04:25. > :04:30.have been launched by the police to find out whether all security...
:04:31. > :04:33.Whether all safety features, the procedures were followed and to find
:04:34. > :04:39.out if anyone was responsible for this -- safety procedures. And also
:04:40. > :04:46.this public enquiry, which has been announced by Theresa May. But, as
:04:47. > :04:50.you can see, Grenfell Tower is behind us and firefighters today are
:04:51. > :04:56.still trying to get into the building to find out exactly who is
:04:57. > :04:59.in there. As we understand, 70 people are known to have died in
:05:00. > :05:00.this fire this week. Thank you for now.
:05:01. > :05:06.Just after 7am this morning we'll be speaking to local
:05:07. > :05:14.US officials say seven crew members are unaccounted for after a US Navy
:05:15. > :05:17.destroyer collided with a merchant ship off the coast of Japan.
:05:18. > :05:19.The commander of the USS Fitzgerald and another sailor had
:05:20. > :05:22.to be winched to safety following the incident.
:05:23. > :05:24.Our Tokyo correspondent Rupert Wingfield-Hayes joins us live
:05:25. > :05:37.This is quite an unusual collision, isn't it? Very unusual and very
:05:38. > :05:43.serious that such a sophisticated ship as this, the USS Fitzgerald,
:05:44. > :05:47.one of the most modern and sophisticated warships anywhere in
:05:48. > :05:51.the world, with an array of different types of radar and
:05:52. > :05:57.sensors, how did this ship on a calm and clear night colli with a large
:05:58. > :06:03.merchant vessel off the coast of Japan? It's a very easy part of the
:06:04. > :06:07.sea, but nevertheless these are very highly trained crews on the ships
:06:08. > :06:11.and a lot of questions are being raised as to how it could have
:06:12. > :06:15.happened. It has caused extensive damage to the USS Fitzgerald. I've
:06:16. > :06:21.seen pictures and there's a huge gash down the side of the destroyer.
:06:22. > :06:26.The bow of the cargo vessel seems to have penetrated the side of the navy
:06:27. > :06:30.destroyer, both above and below the waterline, and it has taken on
:06:31. > :06:34.water. It is listing to one side, although I understand from the US
:06:35. > :06:36.Navy that it isn't at risk of sinking. Thanks for the moment.
:06:37. > :06:40.A jury in the US state of Minnesota has acquitted the police officer
:06:41. > :06:43.who fatally shot an African American man after pulling him over
:06:44. > :06:49.Philando Castile's girlfriend live streamed his dying
:06:50. > :07:07.We got pulled over for a busted taillight in the back and the police
:07:08. > :07:11.just... He killed my boyfriend. Philando Castile was pulled over by
:07:12. > :07:16.police because he had a faulty brake light. Then he was shot. His
:07:17. > :07:20.girlfriend string the aftermath on Facebook, as the officer kept his
:07:21. > :07:25.gun trained on the car. Oh my God, please don't tell me he is dead.
:07:26. > :07:31.Please don't tell me my boyfriend just went like that. I will keep my
:07:32. > :07:34.hands where they are. Philando Castile was seen on police video
:07:35. > :07:41.telling the officer there was legally purchased in the car, but he
:07:42. > :07:46.wasn't going anywhere near it. Officer Yanez said he felt his life
:07:47. > :07:49.is on danger, that Philando Castile was high on marijuana and he matched
:07:50. > :07:53.the description of the robbery suspect. The jury believed him and
:07:54. > :07:56.found him not guilty. Philando Castile's family could not contain
:07:57. > :08:01.their grief and outrage at the verdict. My son loved the city and
:08:02. > :08:08.the city killed my son and a murderer gets away! No justice! No
:08:09. > :08:15.peace! This shooting sparked vigils and protests in cities across the
:08:16. > :08:22.US. First peaceful, but the frustration at the fault line of
:08:23. > :08:29.racial division grew. Tonight, once again, they gathered in the city of
:08:30. > :08:33.St Paul with a cry for justice. They marched, voices and banners raised.
:08:34. > :08:38.Ministers of police have dismissed Jeronimo Yanez despite the verdict
:08:39. > :08:40.and there is a call for calm, but this community is once again in pain
:08:41. > :08:52.and they are determined to show it. The former New Zealand trade
:08:53. > :08:55.negotiation has been appointed by the government to advise on securing
:08:56. > :09:00.new deals with countries outside the EU.
:09:01. > :09:02.Crawford Falconer, who previously called Brexit an "enormous
:09:03. > :09:04.opportunity", will work with the International Trade

:09:09. > :09:12.Mr Fox is due to visit Washington on Monday to develop new links
:09:13. > :09:15.The Queen's birthday honours list has been released.
:09:16. > :09:18.Julie Walters and June Whitfield have received damehoods and there's
:09:19. > :09:20.also a knighthood for Billy Connolly.
:09:21. > :09:22.In a break with tradition, the Queen's Civilian Gallantry List
:09:23. > :09:24.has also been released at the same time.
:09:25. > :09:31.Our entertainment correspondent, Lizo Mzimba, has more.
:09:32. > :09:38.Several people are being recognised for their bravery, among them PCP
:09:39. > :09:43.Keith Palmer, killed as he tried to stop someone entering Parliament
:09:44. > :09:50.during the Westminster attack. He has been awarded a posthumous medal.
:09:51. > :09:52.Also recognised with Queen's Gallantry medals,
:09:53. > :09:54.PCs Craig Nicholls and Jonathan Wright,
:09:55. > :09:57.who arrested the man who killed MP Jo Cox last June.
:09:58. > :09:59.Bernard Kenny, who was with MP when she was attacked,
:10:00. > :10:04.He just saw Jo and tried to save her and we can't
:10:05. > :10:07.The two boys, similarly, unarmed, just went in,
:10:08. > :10:09.they knew he was armed, but not a thought.
:10:10. > :10:13.True heroes. True heroes.
:10:14. > :10:15.And the last surviving member of the famous Dambuster raids,
:10:16. > :10:18.Johnny Johnson, has been made an MBE, one of more
:10:19. > :10:26.In the world of music, the 1960s Eurovision winner

:11:22. > :11:24.Over 400 musicians, 200 horses and 14,100 troops
:11:25. > :11:42.Let's run the prison of the newspapers. As you would expect, the
:11:43. > :11:49.stories of the Grenfell Tower disaster still dominating the front
:11:50. > :11:52.of many. The Times says 'May takes cover', criticism that perhaps the
:11:53. > :11:57.Prime Minister wasn't visible love. Also the announcement of the ?5
:11:58. > :12:02.million fund to help those affected by the disaster. Yesterday you will
:12:03. > :12:05.also have seen the pictures of the many protesters who broke into
:12:06. > :12:09.Kensington Town Hall, demanding answers to certain key questions
:12:10. > :12:12.they say they need to know. Lots of criticism levied against
:12:13. > :12:16.some of the protesters, about whether or not they were organised
:12:17. > :12:20.protesters and whether or not they were activists, hard left activists.
:12:21. > :12:26.This coming from the Daily Telegraph. Accused of exploiting the
:12:27. > :12:30.grief of the tower families, as these demonstrations turned ugly. So
:12:31. > :12:34.those pictures also on the front page. But also lots of questions
:12:35. > :12:38.about how Theresa May has reacted. We will be talking to the Secretary
:12:39. > :12:45.of State Damian Green later in this programme.
:12:46. > :12:54.On the Sun, this is the headline. Protesters, there were two organised
:12:55. > :12:57.protest yesterday, and also another protest that was much quieter, a
:12:58. > :13:01.candlelit vigil, that took days later on even in very close to the
:13:02. > :13:07.site of Grenfell Tower. The front page of the Daily Mirror.
:13:08. > :13:11.The tale of two leaders. The Queen visited victims yesterday, well,
:13:12. > :13:15.families of victims, and the victims, people who have lost their
:13:16. > :13:20.homes and possessions. It is the picture. The Mirror says that the
:13:21. > :13:25.Prime Minister did not visit. We want to make clear that Downing
:13:26. > :13:30.Street has reacted and we do know that Theresa May did visit a church
:13:31. > :13:34.and she did also meet a group of victims at residents and community
:13:35. > :13:37.leaders at the church. Earlier she had met visitors and survivors at a
:13:38. > :13:42.hospital. A quick look at the front of the FT.
:13:43. > :13:48.The same story of course at the top. In other news:, this is a big story
:13:49. > :13:54.in the business world. Amazon. The sweeps on whole foods. It is paying
:13:55. > :13:58.$13.7 billion to buy the retailer present in many cities around the
:13:59. > :14:03.world, but Amazon buying the bricks and mortar, physical stores, as part
:14:04. > :14:12.of its attempts to start delivering fresh food.
:14:13. > :14:20.I like this story. 80 years married. The trick? Do you know how they keep
:14:21. > :14:25.their love going? They hold hands. They held hands and they still do
:14:26. > :14:31.every day. Ken is 102 and his wife, Margaret, is 99. They tied the knot
:14:32. > :14:35.two years before the Second World War finished.
:14:36. > :14:41.We will hold hands later. You're watching
:14:42. > :14:42.Breakfast from BBC News. As a series of angry protests
:14:43. > :14:46.take place in London, the government promises more support
:14:47. > :14:49.for survivors of the Grenfell Tower Seven crew members are missing
:14:50. > :14:53.after a US Navy destroyer collides with a cargo vessel off
:14:54. > :14:55.the coast of Japan. Here's Helen with a look
:14:56. > :15:16.at this morning's weather. Lead to you both. I have got to say
:15:17. > :15:20.that the mid-20s is bearable for me and ever get any hotter, which over
:15:21. > :15:23.the next few days, it will be uncomfortable particularly as
:15:24. > :15:29.humidity rises. But the payoff, lovely sunrises. This one coming in
:15:30. > :15:34.from Rye Harbour. Plenty of sunshine to be found this morning. I drove
:15:35. > :15:41.past the little 's fault first thing and that is gone now. We should
:15:42. > :15:47.enjoy plenty of fine and dry weather the week and will be warm, if not
:15:48. > :15:49.hot. With several days of this hit and rising humidity. Night-time
:15:50. > :15:53.humidity as well will make it uncomfortable for some. We have lots
:15:54. > :15:57.of sunshine this morning and a little cloud across the north-west
:15:58. > :16:02.of England. That will burn away for the main cloudy area where we have
:16:03. > :16:07.the waterfront, there is always a bus with British weather and the
:16:08. > :16:11.Highlands of Scotland, and some parts of Northern Ireland, I think
:16:12. > :16:14.as well will see a little cloud but if you head off to trooping the
:16:15. > :16:18.colour today, look of utter Bridger rise. Just the chance that we could
:16:19. > :16:22.see 30 degrees, believe it or not, during the day ahead. Not, as I say,
:16:23. > :16:27.for all. We have this weather front around because yesterday across the
:16:28. > :16:31.north-west you will migrate into the north-east is thought to be a damper
:16:32. > :16:36.David east of the Grampians, 21 on the toes, 25, 26 on the coast, 24,
:16:37. > :16:40.25 across the eastern side of Northern Ireland and 26 to about ten
:16:41. > :16:43.or 29, just as say, a small possibility that we will see 30
:16:44. > :16:47.summer across England. If we do that, it will be the warmest day so
:16:48. > :16:52.far full of a little fresher around the coach because the city -- sea
:16:53. > :16:57.temperature is nowhere near as high that the thunder to make sunshine is
:16:58. > :17:01.strong. Unusual to get high levels of UV in this country and that is
:17:02. > :17:05.what we have through the weekend full of the overnight period, well,
:17:06. > :17:09.we keep the status quo. And dry settled whether the most part with
:17:10. > :17:14.cloudy zone and rain in the north. Humidity will rise tonight so last
:17:15. > :17:17.night, if it was warm, it will be more warm and more uncomfortable.
:17:18. > :17:20.That will be a notable feature of the weather through the coming few
:17:21. > :17:26.nights. Otherwise a repeat performance of tomorrow. OK. So you
:17:27. > :17:30.will either be happy that the weather repeats or not. Thank you,
:17:31. > :17:32.Helen. We will have more from her later but now it is time for the
:17:33. > :17:33.film review. This week Mark Kermode joins
:17:34. > :17:36.Jane Hill to discuss this week's cinema releases, including Churchill
:17:37. > :17:57.and Whitney: Can I Be Me. Hello and welcome to
:17:58. > :18:00.the Film Review on BBC News. To take us through this
:18:01. > :18:02.week's cinema releases, We have Churchill with a powerhouse
:18:03. > :18:09.performance by Bryan Cox. We have Gifted which is not what it
:18:10. > :18:15.looks like it's going to be. And Whitney: Can I Be Me,
:18:16. > :18:18.the new documentary by Nick He gives some fantastic
:18:19. > :18:30.performances. He plays Winston Churchill,
:18:31. > :18:33.which is a very big role. Effectively, he is played
:18:34. > :18:37.as a bulldog but as a kind You know, the military bosses
:18:38. > :18:42.are off doing their thing, he is somebody who is seen much
:18:43. > :18:45.more as a figurehead. He is convinced, in the film,
:18:46. > :18:48.that the D-Day landings, the operation is very,
:18:49. > :18:50.very flawed and very dangerous and is going to end possibly
:18:51. > :18:54.in tragic loss of life, He is sort of flashing
:18:55. > :18:58.back to World War I. We see him at the beginning,
:18:59. > :19:01.he's walking on the beach, and the sea is lapping and the sea
:19:02. > :19:06.starts to turn red and he is having And so the film is basically
:19:07. > :19:10.about him in the days leading up to D-Day, attempting to convince
:19:11. > :19:13.everybody that this is not This will be the greatest
:19:14. > :19:23.campaign we have mounted Operation Overlord will require
:19:24. > :19:28.200,000 vehicles, a fleet 7000 ships, swarms of planes,
:19:29. > :19:31.most essentially a quarter All this will be focused in one
:19:32. > :19:40.place, taking the German This plan may be admirable
:19:41. > :19:52.in its bravery but in its risk Our own casualty estimates predict
:19:53. > :20:00.that anything up to 160,000 French If Overlord fails -
:20:01. > :20:06.which it all too easily could - we would lose at one strike most
:20:07. > :20:10.of our war material along with tens Is it fair to say not a straight
:20:11. > :20:22.biopic because of this is looking And I have to say I think the film
:20:23. > :20:32.is carried shoulder high by Brian He brings an awful lot
:20:33. > :20:35.of King Lear to this role. I mean, a number of people have
:20:36. > :20:38.pointed out, including Brian Cox himself, he plays Winston Churchill
:20:39. > :20:41.as this kind of slightly wounded figure, somebody who is a man out
:20:42. > :20:45.of time, somebody who is no longer in the position of power
:20:46. > :20:48.that they think they ought to be, and somebody who is also deeply
:20:49. > :20:51.conflicted, who is haunted by the ghost of Gallipoli,
:20:52. > :20:54.who is absolutely convinced that what's going to happen is that they
:20:55. > :20:57.are walking towards tragedy. There are very few people
:20:58. > :21:00.to whom he listens - one is the King and the other
:21:01. > :21:03.is Miranda Richardson, as Clemmie. Actually performing alongside
:21:04. > :21:09.Brian Cox, who is doing such a great role - all eyes are on Brian Cox -
:21:10. > :21:12.it is a real tribute to Miranda Richardson that she holds
:21:13. > :21:16.the screen as well as she does, which is no surprise
:21:17. > :21:19.because she is a fantastic actor. There is a subplot about
:21:20. > :21:23.a secretary, a new secretary who is brought in, through whose
:21:24. > :21:26.eyes we originally meet Winston She then has a relationship
:21:27. > :21:29.with the man also involved in the campaign, and all this weaves
:21:30. > :21:33.through the drama in a way which feels much too much
:21:34. > :21:35.like melodramatic contrivance. It also feels like it doesn't really
:21:36. > :21:39.need it because the story itself I know that the particular take
:21:40. > :21:43.on history has ruffled some people's feathers but for me it felt

:21:51. > :21:53.televisual drama but lifted high There is a moment where
:21:54. > :21:59.he is praying for rain, I think he is aware
:22:00. > :22:06.that it is and we all are as well. He and Miranda Richardson
:22:07. > :22:09.are the main reasons I have only seen the
:22:10. > :22:14.trailer for Gifted. The subject matter struck me
:22:15. > :22:16.as really interesting. This has potential
:22:17. > :22:18.to be interesting. And the poster I have
:22:19. > :22:22.to say looked very cheesy. From the director of
:22:23. > :22:26.500 Days of Summer. The poster looked like it was going
:22:27. > :22:30.to be a particular kind of drama and I went in not
:22:31. > :22:32.expecting very much. The story is a single man
:22:33. > :22:36.who is raising a precociously He wants her to go
:22:37. > :22:39.to a normal school. The school saying she is a genius
:22:40. > :22:42.and she needs to go He says, no I want her
:22:43. > :22:47.to have as a normal life. What I like about this film was,
:22:48. > :22:50.particularly since I hadn't expected that much of it, it is very,
:22:51. > :22:54.very sharply written by Tom Flynn. It is a film in which...it's a lot
:22:55. > :22:57.funnier than you expect I have this thing that something has
:22:58. > :23:02.to get six laughs in order to be The performances are
:23:03. > :23:06.all really well judged. Not least Lindsay Duncan who plays
:23:07. > :23:09.a character that could easily tip over into caricature -
:23:10. > :23:11.the controlling grandmother who wants the child to fully explore
:23:12. > :23:16.all her intellectual potential. In another drama, it could have been
:23:17. > :23:20.somewhat demonised but Linsay Duncan I thought it was well judged,
:23:21. > :23:31.great performances all the way round and I came out feeling joyous,
:23:32. > :23:34.feeling uplifted with a real smile I was very, very surprised by how
:23:35. > :23:39.much it did what it set Your third choice today
:23:40. > :23:44.is a documentary, the new Nick Broomfield, a man with quite a track
:23:45. > :23:47.record, massive track He has made things in the past
:23:48. > :23:55.like Kurt and Courtney, and has had a very particular kind
:23:56. > :23:59.of documentary style. Originally he put himself
:24:00. > :24:01.into the documentaries a lot. The figure who walks
:24:02. > :24:03.around with a boom mic, He has very much taken
:24:04. > :24:08.a back seat here. You hear his voice a couple
:24:09. > :24:11.of times, but that's all. He's using footage from a tour
:24:12. > :24:15.that was going to be turned into a fly-on-the-wall
:24:16. > :24:16.documentary but never did. It essentially traces her story
:24:17. > :24:21.from her home life, her mother who was a very powerful singer,
:24:22. > :24:24.and how she was then picked up by a record company,
:24:25. > :24:27.marketed as a pop singer, rather that as a gospel and R,
:24:28. > :24:30.which is where she came from. Found herself in a difficult
:24:31. > :24:33.position in which she did not know who she was meant to be,
:24:34. > :24:36.and her relationship with people like, for example, Robyn Crawford
:24:37. > :24:39.and, of course, Bobby Brown. She could come off the stage and not
:24:40. > :24:54.have to be the person that everybody in the world expected her to be
:24:55. > :24:57.or who they thought she was. He understood that part of her,
:24:58. > :25:00.he understood the pressures because he was Bobby
:25:01. > :25:06.Brown, you know. He understood her pressures
:25:07. > :25:08.and he understood her pain. What do I think that Bobby
:25:09. > :25:12.and Whitney gave each other? You can see from the clip,
:25:13. > :25:31.the film is more forgiving, more affectionate than some
:25:32. > :25:34.of Nick Broomfield's previous work. I went into this not being a big
:25:35. > :25:36.Whitney Houston fan, I did not know that
:25:37. > :25:39.much about her music - I'd seen her in movies, obviously -
:25:40. > :25:44.and the most important thing is I came out with a new-found
:25:45. > :25:47.respect for what she did, for the way she sang,
:25:48. > :25:50.for the way in which her music was important because I really
:25:51. > :25:54.didn't have a handle on it. And that is important that a film
:25:55. > :25:59.like this does tell you that. Obviously the comparison
:26:00. > :26:02.to be made is with Amy, And it's also worth saying,
:26:03. > :26:05.straight off the bat, What Amy did was give you the sense
:26:06. > :26:11.of being intimately involved in that story, sometimes in a way
:26:12. > :26:13.that was deeply uncomfortable, but because of the way he used
:26:14. > :26:17.the lyrics, which seemed to tell the story almost like a diary,
:26:18. > :26:20.it really gave you what felt This feels much more like watching
:26:21. > :26:24.something from a distance It is to do with the way
:26:25. > :26:28.that the film came together. It's also...there is a fairly
:26:29. > :26:31.familiar story of somebody who has a lot of talent, suddenly finding
:26:32. > :26:34.themselves involved in fame and fortune and finding it very
:26:35. > :26:37.difficult to deal with that The film investigates
:26:38. > :26:40.the relationship with the people around her, whether
:26:41. > :26:42.they helped her or not. There's an interview
:26:43. > :26:45.with her bodyguard who says that at one point he wrote down very
:26:46. > :26:48.clearly, all this stuff is happening and this is bad and this
:26:49. > :26:51.is not going to end well. He says he was then rewarded
:26:52. > :26:55.by being told "OK, we no longer What I came out of it with was,
:26:56. > :27:00.as I said, primarily a sense of an extraordinary talent having
:27:01. > :27:02.made some really brilliant records which I really had not
:27:03. > :27:05.thought of like that before A public waste shown
:27:06. > :27:12.with Amy as well. As a piece of filmmaking it is not
:27:13. > :27:15.in the same league as Amy. Amy really is an extraordinary
:27:16. > :27:18.and remarkable and very, And I think as a piece
:27:19. > :27:26.of film-making, it is the better My Cousin Rachel, which is
:27:27. > :27:32.an adaptation of the Daphne du Maurier, from the 1951,
:27:33. > :27:34.which was filmed in 1952 Now we have Rachel Weisz playing
:27:35. > :27:38.this fantastically mysterious Is she the femme fatale
:27:39. > :27:41.or is she somebody who is being completely misread by
:27:42. > :27:43.everybody around her? What the film manages to do
:27:44. > :27:46.is to keep that ambiguity. It starts off as a "did
:27:47. > :27:49.she or didn't she?" And it is very clever
:27:50. > :27:53.because the film all the way through keeps you guessing
:27:54. > :27:55.as to its character's motives. Rachel Weisz said that what she did
:27:56. > :27:59.was she read the script, she decided for herself
:28:00. > :28:01.whether her character was "guilty" and she said to Roger Michell,
:28:02. > :28:04.the director, "I have decided," he said "don't tell me,
:28:05. > :28:07.I don't want to know, The film manages
:28:08. > :28:10.to keep that secret. I love what you have
:28:11. > :28:15.chosen as a DVD. Perhaps a little too understated,
:28:16. > :28:17.Loving, but fascinating. That was the criticism
:28:18. > :28:19.levelled against it. This is basically Ruth Negga -
:28:20. > :28:21.terrific performance. It's a story about a couple fighting
:28:22. > :28:27.racist laws to get married, and the understatement is actually
:28:28. > :28:30.the thing that makes it work. The key thing about the couple
:28:31. > :28:35.is they do not want to be They do not want to be
:28:36. > :28:39.people who are fighting They don't want to be
:28:40. > :28:42.the figureheads. They just want to be left alone
:28:43. > :28:46.to get on with what htey're doing. They're characters that
:28:47. > :28:50.you absolutely believe in. I love the understatement of it
:28:51. > :28:54.but I know that that's exactly the thing that had made some people
:28:55. > :28:57.think there's no huge grandstanding It all happened at a much
:28:58. > :29:01.more controlled level, and I just think that
:29:02. > :29:06.just add to its power. It is a remarkable
:29:07. > :29:10.piece, I have to say. Maybe I'll come down more
:29:11. > :29:13.on your side, to be fair. A reminder that you can find

:32:56. > :33:08.kites of all shapes and sizes. I like the giraffe wobbling out

:33:25. > :33:35.Not deliberately. Let's talk about golf.
:33:36. > :33:43.Safer ground for you! Well done. Lots of kites to talk about. No
:33:44. > :33:47.golfers, not that we saw, but who knows? Some of them have some free
:33:48. > :33:53.time on their hands, maybe they should pop over to whether --
:33:54. > :33:59.wherever that was. The world's top three golfers missed the cut. Tommy
:34:00. > :34:01.Fleetwood and Paul Casey are at the top of the leaderboard and Paul
:34:02. > :34:05.Casey said it was pretty cool sitting down to dinner, knowing he
:34:06. > :34:09.was on the leaderboard. I read somewhere that he has only made the
:34:10. > :34:13.cut once in a major tournament, is a pretty good going from him. So for
:34:14. > :34:15.the first time in about 30 years the world's top three golfers have
:34:16. > :34:19.failed to make the cut. While they were struggling,
:34:20. > :34:22.others were making light of the huge England's Paul Casey set the early
:34:23. > :34:26.pace, finishing on seven under. There he was joined by another
:34:27. > :34:29.Englishman Tommy Fleetwood. They are both part of a four-way
:34:30. > :34:32.tie for the lead with the Americans Brian Harman
:34:33. > :34:41.and Brooks Koepka. At least I know what's in there, it
:34:42. > :34:45.is just a matter of getting it out of me and getting myself in the
:34:46. > :34:48.right frame of mind. Yesterday, coming off the injury and a month
:34:49. > :34:54.off, I was anxious going out there. I got off to a good start at it sort
:34:55. > :34:58.of caught up with me as the runs went on and the more I can play
:34:59. > :35:00.hopefully I will get rid of all that stuff and hopefully strip it down to
:35:01. > :35:08.what you saw in the last six holes. For me it felt like it played
:35:09. > :35:12.tougher today. It doesn't need to be changed... Too much of a change of
:35:13. > :35:17.this golf course to play pretty difficult. If it stays like it is,
:35:18. > :35:18.with the wind, it will be treacherous on the weekend, which is
:35:19. > :35:22.just what I would like. Warren Gatland has called up four
:35:23. > :35:26.more Welsh players to join his Lions squad, a decision that's
:35:27. > :35:28.proved controversial. There are questions over

:35:31. > :35:33.to be touring New Zealand One of the Welsh players has been

:36:11. > :36:18.I suppose the world rugby aura that they talk about in New Zealand, that
:36:19. > :36:22.the Maoris bring, how important it is for the country, the players are
:36:23. > :36:25.proud to put that jersey on and represent, not just the people of

:36:28. > :36:31.New Zealand warmed up for the first test next Saturday by running in 12
:36:32. > :36:35.tries against Samoa in a 78-0 win in Auckland.

:36:47. > :36:54.Both sides went into the game with two wins each. It is midway through
:36:55. > :36:59.the second half and the Red Roses are winning 24- 14, thanks to a

:40:11. > :40:18.I've seen kind of first-hand that your role models, of course they are
:40:19. > :40:22.important and they inspire and excite, but any sport is only as
:40:23. > :40:25.good as its grassroots. So for me, four years ago I was so determined
:40:26. > :40:30.that there would be a long-term legacy from what Jamie and Andy have
:40:31. > :40:33.achieved in Scotland and so I set about creating these grass-roots
:40:34. > :40:36.programmes that I felt like I could have a much more long-term effect by
:40:37. > :40:38.sharing everything that I have learnt over my coaching career with

:41:41. > :41:48.experience as the member for her hometown. She was energetic, caring
:41:49. > :41:53.and passionate. A rising star with still so much to give. But that was
:41:54. > :41:57.all taken away in moments as she was brutally murdered just as she was
:41:58. > :42:02.about to hold a constituency surgery and meet people in need of help. In
:42:03. > :42:07.honour of her life and in keeping with her beliefs, there are more
:42:08. > :42:12.than 100,000 events taking place across the UK this weekend. Yards
:42:13. > :42:18.from the recent terror attacks at Borough market in London, Jo Cox's
:42:19. > :42:23.sister tells me why these events are so important. With the recent terror
:42:24. > :42:26.attacks, it brought it all back to us as a family. My mum found it
:42:27. > :42:31.particularly difficult. Families have been ripped apart and this
:42:32. > :42:35.isn't a way of healing that, but what it's a way of doing is saying,
:42:36. > :42:40.as a country and as a community, we are not going to be beaten by people
:42:41. > :42:43.who try to divide us. Because the vast majority of people are good and
:42:44. > :42:47.we've seen that in the past 12 months. There is such kindness in
:42:48. > :42:53.this country. And that small minority of people who want to
:42:54. > :42:56.change that, we can't let them win. Here in Bankside, a street party on
:42:57. > :43:01.Sunday will cater for more than 100 local people. The theme of the
:43:02. > :43:06.weekend is the Great Get Together. There is even a specially
:43:07. > :43:10.commissioned beer. In Birmingham, Christians and Muslims have come
:43:11. > :43:18.together to prepare and it the meal taken together at the end of a day's
:43:19. > :43:22.fasting during Ramadan. Irving is a really diverse city, but we don't
:43:23. > :43:26.often create opportunities to create -- cross paths or integrate is the
:43:27. > :43:31.Word on looking for. This is an opportunity for people from
:43:32. > :43:33.different walks of life, different faiths, to get together and
:43:34. > :43:42.hopefully have some conversations and some fun. As I said, I am a
:43:43. > :43:49.veteran and you are not! The Great Get Together, as it is known, in its
:43:50. > :43:54.simplest form is a celebration both of Jo Cox's life, of our own lives
:43:55. > :43:59.and communities. It is important in a city like Birmingham that we not
:44:00. > :44:03.only live side by side but we live lives that are connected and we know
:44:04. > :44:06.our neighbours in a deep way, that we can talk about things, understand
:44:07. > :44:12.each other's points of view. Although we are not trying to be the
:44:13. > :44:16.same, we have lots in common, as Jo so famously said. It's a way of
:44:17. > :44:19.understanding each other better and when you do that those prejudices
:44:20. > :44:23.aren't able to flourish because we realise the reality of each other's
:44:24. > :44:27.lives and those myths and stereotypes seemed to vanish,
:44:28. > :44:32.really. During her first speech in the House of Commons, Jo said, we
:44:33. > :44:36.have far more in common with each other than things that divide us.
:44:37. > :44:40.This weekend is potentially -- potentially millions of people from
:44:41. > :44:43.different generations, religions and backgrounds share time together and
:44:44. > :44:51.the words will be more pertinent than ever before.
:44:52. > :45:00.a wonderful way to remember her. The family have been quite so dignified
:45:01. > :45:07.and the same message that she put across. And just an idea of getting
:45:08. > :45:12.to know people and that we are more alike than we expect. I imagine that
:45:13. > :45:21.a lot of Simon Crean will be needed, Helen? Pretty much, yes. At this
:45:22. > :45:25.time of year we are not too far away from the longest days so the sun is
:45:26. > :45:28.strong but high levels of UV today and tomorrow again, across the
:45:29. > :45:33.southern half of the country you do not get that very often. Absolutely
:45:34. > :45:38.sun hats and long sleeves, those sort of things. Anything to stay
:45:39. > :45:46.safe in the sun. There will be plenty of it. This picture was sent
:45:47. > :45:52.in. The sunshine isn't universal this morning. Sunshine as well in
:45:53. > :45:57.London. There are a few areas that will mist out on sunshine today, the
:45:58. > :46:02.north-west of the UK but for most of us the weekend is warm, hot and
:46:03. > :46:08.humid, increasingly so. If you are out today and tomorrow the heat
:46:09. > :46:13.stress is a worry because hit by day and are hit by nine, continually I
:46:14. > :46:21.date, by not go -- night again, that will take its toll. These are the
:46:22. > :46:25.areas where we will not have a lot of sunshine. The rain is not heavy
:46:26. > :46:29.but comes and goes full. It spreads to the Northern Isles today as well
:46:30. > :46:37.which is where we had a decent day yesterday. East of the Grampians, I
:46:38. > :46:44.fine and dry weather. The north-west County scene cloud around. 28, 29,
:46:45. > :46:49.possibly 30, a little fresher around the coast because sea temperature is
:46:50. > :46:56.12 or 13 at the moment but the site is just as strong. High levels
:46:57. > :47:00.everywhere of UV where we see sunshine and high levels of pollen.
:47:01. > :47:06.If you are watching the golf, chances are we will seek
:47:07. > :47:08.temperatures similar in two hours in Wisconsin but with the added
:47:09. > :47:14.potential of thundery showers. Saturday night we keep the same dry
:47:15. > :47:19.clear whether. The difference tonight is the humidity, it is
:47:20. > :47:23.rising so it can be more uncomfortable. A quick look at
:47:24. > :47:26.tomorrow because it looks as if it will be a repeat performance.
:47:27. > :47:31.Weather again stagnating across northern Scotland. Open up your
:47:32. > :47:36.windows as much as possible tonight, I think. We will have all the
:47:37. > :47:42.headlines for you coming up at seven but now want breakfast it is time
:47:43. > :47:46.for Click. The team has gone to LA this week for a huge videogame show.
:47:47. > :48:09.It opened its doors to the public for the first time.
:48:10. > :48:24.All of which can only mean it is time for E3,
:48:25. > :48:25.the world's maddest video games expo,
:48:26. > :48:29.in the heart of downtown Los Angeles.
:48:30. > :48:31.This is where new games are launched and
:48:32. > :48:37.It is always big, loud and bright but this year,
:48:38. > :48:42.for the first time, it is not just open to those who work in the games
:48:43. > :48:53.15,000 members of the public have also been allowed in,
:48:54. > :48:56.each paying up to - get this - $250 for a ticket.
:48:57. > :49:03.How exciting it is, depends on whether the big console
:49:04. > :49:05.manufacturers have any big announcements or not.
:49:06. > :49:07.This year, Microsoft generated the most
:49:08. > :49:09.excitement by announcing a new console.
:49:10. > :49:27.And with that, Phil Spencer kicked off the Xbox E3 press event.
:49:28. > :49:30.It is a big year for Xbox as it announced a brand-new
:49:31. > :49:32.console, code-named Scorpio, is now called...
:49:33. > :49:42.Its high-end spec includes six teraflops of graphic performance.
:49:43. > :49:51.dynamic range visuals at 60 frames a second.
:49:52. > :49:54.As well as producing Dolby Atmos audio.
:49:55. > :50:00.All this adds up to a whole lot of horsepower for a console.
:50:01. > :50:03.It is being billed as the most powerful console ever,
:50:04. > :50:06.but is more computational grunt enough to shift Sony from its number
:50:07. > :50:12.In an attempt to do just that a parade
:50:13. > :50:16.of 4K resolution games assaulted the senses,
:50:17. > :50:18.including a peek at the latest addition to the popular
:50:19. > :50:28.Assassin's Creed series, Origins - this one set in Egypt.
:50:29. > :50:34.The Expendable's Terry Crews brings the smack down to Crackdown 3.
:50:35. > :50:39.Open World smashed everything in sight, destructo-fest.
:50:40. > :50:44.As well as family-friendly platform Super Luckey's Tale.
:50:45. > :50:48.These games will play on the old Xbox One
:50:49. > :50:51.and will play with 4K graphic enhancement on the Xbox One X.
:50:52. > :50:56.Leading that 4K charge with the new machine,
:50:57. > :51:02.racer Forza Motorsport 7 and Anthem, a new sci-fi exosuit game
:51:03. > :51:14.One of the few games where high-end lighting effects do not seem
:51:15. > :51:20.A strong line-up then for the new Xbox.
:51:21. > :51:31.Very little in the way of fan favourites and
:51:32. > :51:52.We were able to fill this arena with great games, without even bringing
:51:53. > :51:59.two of the biggest Franchises here. The most powerful console
:52:00. > :52:02.that Microsoft has Smaller than the old
:52:03. > :52:08.machine, the Xbox one S. And we know it is released
:52:09. > :52:13.on November seven. We do not know what
:52:14. > :52:16.games are like when you actually power the machine up,
:52:17. > :52:19.grab hold of the controller and play To find that out,
:52:20. > :52:31.I have to go over there. OK, now you may think
:52:32. > :52:34.that my driving here is a little scrappy but there is
:52:35. > :52:36.method to my madness. By damaging the car I can see
:52:37. > :52:39.the additional level of detail A smorgasbord of different weather
:52:40. > :52:45.effects going on here. All of them showing what this
:52:46. > :52:50.machine is capable of. The first time I played
:52:51. > :52:53.a game on the new Xbox One X and I just played
:52:54. > :52:56.Forza Motorsport 7. The most recognisable of all titles
:52:57. > :52:59.will be launched with this machine The beautiful game to look
:53:00. > :53:08.at and as you expect, But there is more to this
:53:09. > :53:11.than just incredible I received a challenge recently,
:53:12. > :53:32.come and play me, at Killer It didn't say "if you dare",
:53:33. > :53:36.but it might as well have done, because, as it turns out,
:53:37. > :53:39.Ben is somewhat of a combat expert. Ben has just taken me out
:53:40. > :53:54.in about 20 seconds. I could have done it quicker
:53:55. > :53:58.than that if I didn't screw We're playing Killer Instinct,
:53:59. > :54:03.a five-year-old combat game. It's a big eSports title
:54:04. > :54:06.with players competing for millions of dollars each year,
:54:07. > :54:08.but it's not only its popularity So there, Kathleen has blocked low
:54:09. > :54:14.and the only reason I know she blocked low is because I heard
:54:15. > :54:18.that sound, that you heard there. Ben is relying on his hearing
:54:19. > :54:20.because he's blind, which makes his win
:54:21. > :54:27.even more impressive. If you throw a fireball...it travels
:54:28. > :54:30.and that rather satisfying connection sound at the other end
:54:31. > :54:35.when it hits the opponent. When I say, do you realise you're
:54:36. > :54:38.fighting a guy who can't see, they are like, no, I did not
:54:39. > :54:42.realise that at all. And that starts conversations
:54:43. > :54:48.in itself about how games And you're passionate about taking
:54:49. > :54:52.that conversation further now? I think it needs to go further
:54:53. > :54:55.because gamers without sight Things like being able
:54:56. > :55:01.to tell your friendly team and your enemy team apart,
:55:02. > :55:06.so different footsteps. Audio only games have been around
:55:07. > :55:12.for many years and it's only now that sound designers
:55:13. > :55:15.are beginning to harness On the Web, a screen reader
:55:16. > :55:33.speaks out the options. It took years of the internet before
:55:34. > :55:36.accessibility features like this became commonplace and
:55:37. > :55:38.it's still not 100%. And as for games consoles,
:55:39. > :55:40.currently blind gamers have That's where the real big barrier
:55:41. > :55:45.is - the middleware. The tools people use to make games
:55:46. > :55:48.aren't compatible with the software that can be used to
:55:49. > :55:50.operate technology. So if that barrier could be solved
:55:51. > :55:54.then we would see a big increase in the amount of blind
:55:55. > :55:56.accessible games there are. Ian Hamilton has produced
:55:57. > :55:59.accessibility guidelines His mission is to make
:56:00. > :56:03.gaming more inclusive. Accessibility's job will be
:56:04. > :56:05.done when people stop There's always going to be some
:56:06. > :56:11.new barrier that needs Ian has been working
:56:12. > :56:17.with people like Ben for years, but it is really down to the console
:56:18. > :56:21.makers now to bring about change. We need to be sure the games
:56:22. > :56:25.and consoles we build are accessible to any kind of player,
:56:26. > :56:27.whether it's someone who has sight We're working with APIs,
:56:28. > :56:30.with our controller. We announced copilot mode,
:56:31. > :56:33.where people can use two controls to play one version of the game,
:56:34. > :56:36.so if someone can't use Microsoft is really leading the way
:56:37. > :56:41.when it comes to accessibility They've released a new
:56:42. > :56:46.text-to-speech API, which means for the first time in-game
:56:47. > :56:51.menus will be read out. Let's see what Ben
:56:52. > :56:55.thinks about this news. If other developers,
:56:56. > :56:58.like Sony and Nintendo, anybody else, want to make
:56:59. > :57:00.their content more accessible using in-game menus and spoken UI
:57:01. > :57:04.elements, that's brilliant. If I can go in and buy a game
:57:05. > :57:09.without have to worry about how much I'm paying for it,
:57:10. > :57:13.versus accessibility, Sony kicked off its PlayStation
:57:14. > :57:23.press event with a bang, thanks to a trailer from developer
:57:24. > :57:28.Naughty Dog's latest adventure, The crowd certainly liked that Sony
:57:29. > :57:39.made it snow in sunny LA for robo dinosaur mash-up
:57:40. > :57:41.Horizon Zero Dawn's expansion, And everyone's favourite friendly
:57:42. > :57:49.neighbourhood Spiderman swung into action in a new game
:57:50. > :57:52.which features an innovative use of his athletic abilities
:57:53. > :57:57.and his web slinging. And, unlike Xbox, who didn't even
:57:58. > :58:10.mention VR, PlayStation renewed its commitment
:58:11. > :58:14.to techno welding goggles, sorry, virtual reality,
:58:15. > :58:21.by showing off a host of VR games, And an utterly bonkers
:58:22. > :58:31.Final Fantasy VR fishing game. Final Fantasy 15:
:58:32. > :58:35.Monster of the Deep. PlayStation is riding high
:58:36. > :58:40.at the moment with its PS4 But, with the superpowerful
:58:41. > :58:44.Xbox One X on the horizon, will things like VR help Sony
:58:45. > :58:50.to maintain its lead? I think that over the long-term it
:58:51. > :58:57.really is an opportunity to create a new entertainment medium,
:58:58. > :58:59.but I do stress that it's I think in the last six months
:59:00. > :59:08.to a year we've seen a little bit You'll see lots more
:59:09. > :59:10.technology innovation. I think content makers,
:59:11. > :59:12.game makers and others, including folks that are making
:59:13. > :59:14.television programmes, they are really only starting
:59:15. > :59:23.to just learn what the tools That is it for the shortcut. Much
:59:24. > :59:28.more in the full-length version which you can see online right now.

:03:42. > :03:43.at the moment. I've been here for three days

:04:33. > :04:35.to the bottom of what happened. But with so many still missing,
:04:36. > :04:38.others dead or feared dead, the questions keep growing,
:04:39. > :04:56.but the answers are simply not Well, that's it. There are so many
:04:57. > :04:59.questions still to be answered and that's why three investigations
:05:00. > :05:04.currently ongoing. One by the fire service to find out exactly how this

:05:42. > :05:42.building, that used to be home to so many people.
:05:43. > :05:43.Thank you. As Frankie said, the Prime Minister
:05:44. > :05:46.faced hostility during her visit Let's talk to our political
:05:47. > :05:58.correspondent Emma Vardy. What do we do about the response
:05:59. > :06:02.from Theresa May? There was hostility and perhaps Theresa May's
:06:03. > :06:05.presence yesterday may have stirred up anger even more in what was
:06:06. > :06:09.already an emotionally charged situation. We saw growing
:06:10. > :06:18.frustration from the crowd as she left and there were cries of "shame
:06:19. > :06:20.on you". Per response has been to underline the ?5 million of
:06:21. > :06:24.emergency funding that's been made available. -- per response. She
:06:25. > :06:28.spoke about her empathy with the terrible trauma people suffered, but
:06:29. > :06:32.she failed to address the direct question about whether she herself
:06:33. > :06:35.has been able to strike the right emotional chord with people through
:06:36. > :06:40.this. She was especially pressed on her own response to the growing
:06:41. > :06:45.public anger. This is an absolutely awful fire that took place. People
:06:46. > :06:49.have lost their lives. People have had their homes destroyed. They have
:06:50. > :06:56.fled for their lives with absolutely nothing. Do you accept that you
:06:57. > :07:01.misread the public mood on this one? You misread the anger that people
:07:02. > :07:08.feel about this. They shouted coward at you today when you left the
:07:09. > :07:11.church. What I have done since this incident took place is yesterday I
:07:12. > :07:15.made sure the public services have the support that they needed in
:07:16. > :07:18.order to be able to do the job they were doing in the immediate
:07:19. > :07:22.aftermath. But that's three days on. This is Friday evening. They needed
:07:23. > :07:27.those things in place on Wednesday. There were people we spoke to who
:07:28. > :07:32.were housed for one night, didn't know where they would spend the next
:07:33. > :07:37.night, had no money for food and were not told by anyone. What I have
:07:38. > :07:41.done today is ensured that we are, as a government, putting that
:07:42. > :07:46.funding in place for people in the area.
:07:47. > :07:49.Well, the government has said this morning it is determined to build
:07:50. > :07:53.trust with survivors in a more conciliatory tone, reaching out to
:07:54. > :07:57.people today. But this continues to be a major test for Theresa May
:07:58. > :08:01.under the most desperate of circumstances. And a lot of people
:08:02. > :08:05.highlighting the apparent contrast in response that we had from the
:08:06. > :08:09.Prime Minister and the pictures of the Queen visiting yesterday. We
:08:10. > :08:14.also had a statement from the Queen yesterday. She says the country has
:08:15. > :08:17.been resolute in the face of adversity, highlighting not just the
:08:18. > :08:25.tragedy in London at Grenfell Tower, what also the terror attacks in
:08:26. > :08:28.Manchester and London. She said it was difficult to escape a very
:08:29. > :08:32.sombre national mood and in recent months the country had experienced a
:08:33. > :08:35.succession of national tragedies. She says, we continue to pray for
:08:36. > :08:36.those who have been directly affected by these events.
:08:37. > :08:39.Thanks so much. US officials say seven crew members
:08:40. > :08:42.are unaccounted for after a US Navy destroyer collided with a merchant
:08:43. > :08:45.ship off the coast of Japan. The commander of the USS Fitzgerald
:08:46. > :08:48.and another sailor had to be winched to safety
:08:49. > :08:54.following the incident. Our Tokyo correspondent
:08:55. > :08:56.Rupert Wingfield-Hayes said questions are being raised over how
:08:57. > :09:02.the incident happened. It's very unusual and very serious
:09:03. > :09:07.that such a sophisticated ship as this, the USS Fitzgerald,
:09:08. > :09:10.one of the most modern and sophisticated warships
:09:11. > :09:15.anywhere in the world, with an array of different types
:09:16. > :09:21.of radar and sensors, how did this ship on a calm,
:09:22. > :09:25.clear night collide with a large merchant vessel off
:09:26. > :09:27.the coast of Japan? It's a very busy part of the sea,
:09:28. > :09:30.but nevertheless these are very highly trained crews
:09:31. > :09:35.on these ships and a lot of questions are being raised
:09:36. > :09:38.by this as to how it It has caused extensive damage
:09:39. > :09:41.to the USS Fitzgerald. I've seen pictures from the scene
:09:42. > :09:44.and there's a huge gash down The bow of the cargo vessel appears
:09:45. > :09:51.to have penetrated the side of the navy destroyer,
:09:52. > :09:54.both above and below the waterline, It is listing to one side,
:09:55. > :09:59.although I understand from the US Navy that it isn't
:10:00. > :10:03.at risk of sinking. A jury in the US state of Minnesota
:10:04. > :10:07.has acquitted a police officer who fatally shot an African-American
:10:08. > :10:10.man after pulling him over Philando Castile's girlfriend,

:10:40. > :10:43.the aftermath on Facebook, as the officer kept his gun
:10:44. > :10:45.trained on the car. Oh my God, please don't
:10:46. > :10:49.tell me he is dead. Please don't tell me my boyfriend
:10:50. > :10:55.just went like that. Yes, I will keep my

:11:14. > :11:16.the description of a robbery The jury believed him and found him
:11:17. > :11:19.not guilty of manslaughter. Mr Castile's family could not

:13:20. > :13:27.your chance and now everyone will be angry go crazy. -- who do you. May
:13:28. > :13:32.must go! All of the families are upset and angry. Just as for
:13:33. > :13:37.Grenfell Tower mag the whole procedure is chaos. We live in a
:13:38. > :13:43.modern world, why is it carried out like this? It doesn't make sense. At

:13:48. > :13:55.turn it into Grenfell Tower more real park for all of those people.
:13:56. > :13:58.-- Granville memorial park. Ask anyone, no one has seen anyone from
:13:59. > :14:00.the council. There is no organisation, no official person at
:14:01. > :14:06.all. Local Labour Councillor Robert
:14:07. > :14:15.Atkinson joins us now Thank you very much for your time
:14:16. > :14:21.this morning. I don't know if you are able to hear much of that
:14:22. > :14:26.report. I was. Let me ask your reaction and ask who you have been
:14:27. > :14:33.speaking to in the area. This is my ward, so to see a terrible fire
:14:34. > :14:39.happened, I have been speaking to people and seeking to get out
:14:40. > :14:41.information. The lack of leadership and the lack of communications is
:14:42. > :14:47.all making the situation infinitely worse. What more do you want?
:14:48. > :14:54.Theresa May has announced there will be ?5 million put towards re- homing
:14:55. > :14:59.and rehousing people. It's not just a of money, which has come along
:15:00. > :15:04.belatedly. Kensington and Chelsea, as everyone knows, is a wealthy
:15:05. > :15:08.council and one of the few that does have money. Right at the beginning
:15:09. > :15:17.of the crisis I was told we would spend money, we still have people
:15:18. > :15:22.sleeping on Jim floors, -- gym floors, the victims have not been
:15:23. > :15:30.supported. Hence the demonstrations, hence the absolutely correct fuel we
:15:31. > :15:33.on behalf of residence, which has spilt over and that's making the
:15:34. > :15:38.situation worse because the attack on the town hall yesterday stopped
:15:39. > :15:45.important work happening in counselling children, in redeploying
:15:46. > :15:51.the schools and in a very difficult task of housing people. As a ward
:15:52. > :15:59.councillor, how many of those protesters were agitated or joined
:16:00. > :16:05.by Taiwan to say hi to activists. People staring up and further
:16:06. > :16:11.politicise this? I did the people who have genuine cause for anger,
:16:12. > :16:18.who have genuine... Who have suffered losses. I recognised some
:16:19. > :16:22.people from my community. I also saw other people who are not from the
:16:23. > :16:27.area and who are not helping the situation. As I say, the leadership
:16:28. > :16:31.from the council has been poor, but smashing up the town hall made this
:16:32. > :16:35.an even worse and I'm not sure it has been reported in the media. It
:16:36. > :16:38.led to the evacuation and closure of the town hall. So the important work
:16:39. > :16:42.of housing people and making arrangements for schoolchildren came
:16:43. > :16:47.to... Was halted yesterday because of this.
:16:48. > :16:54.What would you like to see from central and local government now?
:16:55. > :17:03.What do you need? Give me your wish list. I would like the council
:17:04. > :17:07.leadership, as the residents and protesters have been saying, I would
:17:08. > :17:12.like the leadership to spend more time in the immediate area talking
:17:13. > :17:15.to residents and explaining to them or what measures are being taken and
:17:16. > :17:22.giving a timescale of when people will be assisted. The Prime Minister
:17:23. > :17:26.has said that the aim is to rehouse everyone affected in the next three
:17:27. > :17:31.weeks and that ?5 million is being put towards this. I would say ?5
:17:32. > :17:35.million announced on Friday afternoon in a panic if too Little,
:17:36. > :17:39.too late. The commitment and support from the Central government should
:17:40. > :17:43.have come earlier in the week when the scale of the tragedy first
:17:44. > :17:48.became apparent. What the Prime Minister should be doing is making
:17:49. > :17:52.sure that the tower blocks in other parts of the country are also given
:17:53. > :17:57.money and support by central government. Central government needs
:17:58. > :18:03.to answer the questions as to why the investigation and reports that
:18:04. > :18:08.have happened in the past over similar fires in tower blocks have
:18:09. > :18:13.not... Because the building regulations made by coroners have
:18:14. > :18:16.not been implemented. So government, national government has also been
:18:17. > :18:22.slow to deal with this terrible situation. Labour councillor for
:18:23. > :18:29.Kensington and Chelsea. Thank you very much for your time here. Just
:18:30. > :18:34.after quarter past eight and we will discuss this further with the first
:18:35. > :18:36.Secretary of State. Time to check now on the weather for the weekend.
:18:37. > :18:45.Helen has the details for us. I was asked a little bit earlier if
:18:46. > :18:49.the sunshine was universal across the UK. As you can see from this
:18:50. > :18:53.picture, there was more cloud across Northern Ireland Scotland also
:18:54. > :18:58.across Cumbria in the south-west. It will burn away quickly but this is
:18:59. > :19:03.how it looks, for example, in Cumbria. A little grey in some areas
:19:04. > :19:07.but the sunshine will come through and, unusually, with some very high
:19:08. > :19:11.levels of UV stretching right the way up into northern England. That
:19:12. > :19:14.is quite an unusual and high levels where ever we do see some today.
:19:15. > :19:21.Unfortunately for those with hayfever, high levels of pollen all
:19:22. > :19:28.the way up to Scotland. That is the bad news, really, if you are handing
:19:29. > :19:32.-- heading out to watch trooping the colour, be aware of the strength of
:19:33. > :19:37.the sun and levels of pollen. If you do enjoy sunshine, there is plenty
:19:38. > :19:40.of it to be found. Except in the north-west of Scotland. Year in the
:19:41. > :19:46.Highlands and Islands it will be another day of risk south-westerly
:19:47. > :19:51.winds driving in Cloud, thick cloud, low cloud and hill fog, not a day to
:19:52. > :19:56.go out walking. It will be misty and murky. Today will stretch across
:19:57. > :19:58.into the Northern Isles were was sunny yesterday but Easter the
:19:59. > :20:02.Grampians, pleasant sunshine around across much of Northern Ireland away
:20:03. > :20:09.from the north-west. Temperatures yesterday, low 20s and today, mid-to
:20:10. > :20:12.high 20s. A big leap up, actually and we could potentially see 30
:20:13. > :20:16.degrees, which would make the warmest day of the year so far. Even
:20:17. > :20:23.if we don't, tomorrow we certainly well. Would keep the weather front
:20:24. > :20:27.in the north so humid and warm night but for most of us it will be an
:20:28. > :20:30.increasing humidity which will make it feel more uncomfortable than last
:20:31. > :20:34.night, particular across southern and eastern parts of the UK and that
:20:35. > :20:38.will be a trend overcoming nights as well. Otherwise Sunday is a repeat
:20:39. > :20:41.performance. Misty low cloud and a few places but will not last long.
:20:42. > :20:46.The north-west Scotland, Northern Isles again it will be plagued by
:20:47. > :20:51.that weather front. But for many, temperatures are responding to that
:20:52. > :20:55.very strong sunshine again, 13, 32 potentially tomorrow and it lasts
:20:56. > :21:01.into the beginning of next week as well. So very warm and hot, fresh
:21:02. > :21:04.around the post but even if it is fresh, 16 around the coast, the
:21:05. > :21:17.sunshine will still be very strong indeed. Thank you for answering our
:21:18. > :21:23.questions. Even now we were paying no attention I did! I was paying
:21:24. > :21:27.attention. I think most people will enjoy this, don't you? Just a few
:21:28. > :21:29.will find it stifling. I think so. Particularly in the cities where it
:21:30. > :21:32.gets quite hot. The Queen's birthday honours
:21:33. > :21:34.list has been released. Julie Walters and June Whitfield
:21:35. > :21:37.have received Damehoods and there's also a knighthood
:21:38. > :21:39.for Billy Connolly. In a break with tradition,
:21:40. > :21:41.the Queen's Civilian Gallantry List has also been released
:21:42. > :21:44.at the same time. Our Entertainment correspondent,
:21:45. > :21:55.Lizo Mzimba, has more. I've been on record as saying why is
:21:56. > :22:01.there algebra? I have no intention of going there. Billy Connolly has
:22:02. > :22:05.received a knighthood, something shortly to a strong response from
:22:06. > :22:11.fans. I think there will be a big reaction. Some of them will say high
:22:12. > :22:19.time and some of them will say what the hell is that all about?! I don't
:22:20. > :22:23.know what to prepare for. I am a little embarrassed but deep within
:22:24. > :22:32.me I'm quite pleased. Julie Walters becomes a game. As does 100-year-old
:22:33. > :22:39.Gone With The Wind star Olivia De Havilland. She says she is extremely
:22:40. > :22:44.proud to be honoured. The same honour as well or Terry and June and
:22:45. > :22:48.absolutely fabulous's June Whitfield. Inside of me there is a
:22:49. > :22:56.thin person just screaming to get out. Just the one, dear? I am still
:22:57. > :23:01.in shock, really. But it is wonderful to know that, you know,
:23:02. > :23:08.people have been good enough to appreciate what I have done. Writer
:23:09. > :23:15.and illustrator Raymond Briggs, has been made a CBE. Double BAFTA
:23:16. > :23:23.winning a dress and Sarah Lancashire has been given an OBE. David Wylie

:23:46. > :23:56.music, 1960s Eurovision winner Sandy Shaw becomes an MBE. Charttopping
:23:57. > :24:07.singer Ed Sheerin is also made an MBE. And duty or no go, the founder
:24:08. > :24:15.of your's first like a minority ethnic Orchestra becomes an OBEs. As
:24:16. > :24:19.a role model I have a lot of responsibility but it certainly
:24:20. > :24:24.gives people coming from behind, people from the Black and minority
:24:25. > :24:26.ethnic community the knowledge that they as well can follow a career in
:24:27. > :24:26.classical music. Several people are being recognised
:24:27. > :24:29.for their bravery, among them PC Keith Palmer, killed as he tried
:24:30. > :24:33.to stop a man entering Parliament during the Westminster
:24:34. > :24:34.attack in March. He's been awarded
:24:35. > :24:36.a posthumous George Medal. Also recognised with
:24:37. > :24:38.Queen's Gallantry medals, PCs Craig Nicholls
:24:39. > :24:40.and Jonathan Wright, who arrested the man who killed
:24:41. > :24:48.MP Jo Cox last June. Bernard Kenny, who was with the MP
:24:49. > :24:51.when she was attacked, He just saw Jo and tried
:24:52. > :24:56.to save her and we can't The two boys, similarly,
:24:57. > :24:59.unarmed, just went in, they knew he was armed,
:25:00. > :25:05.but not a thought. And the last surviving member
:25:06. > :25:15.of the famous Dambuster raids, Johnny Johnson, has been
:25:16. > :25:29.made an MBE, one of more He hopes it will be seen as a
:25:30. > :25:34.tribute to his fellow flight crews. I am lucky, I am still alive. I
:25:35. > :25:40.represent the squadron. The squadron has been honoured with this, not me.
:25:41. > :25:50.He is one of over a thousand people being honoured. Such different
:25:51. > :25:54.stories but all with one thing in common, of service of contribution.
:25:55. > :25:59.And it is lovely to see them recognised. Five minutes plus seven.
:26:00. > :26:03.We have had a debate in the office this morning about orienteering.
:26:04. > :26:06.There is one school that is as absolutely, it is great. There is
:26:07. > :26:13.another school that says so boring! So boring! It is a mix. You are
:26:14. > :26:19.outside, you have a mental challenge and a physical challenge. It's
:26:20. > :26:22.perfect. Well, it is 50 years old. British orienteering is celebrating
:26:23. > :26:24.its 50th anniversary this weekend so we took the plunge. Let's see what
:26:25. > :26:31.Mike Ford about it. Once upon a time you could only find
:26:32. > :26:36.them in the countryside. But now they are popping up in cities as
:26:37. > :26:41.well. And on the search for them, some of Britain's 10,000 orienteers.
:26:42. > :26:46.It's a race against the clock around the court using a map you are given
:26:47. > :26:52.at the start. The idea, really, is to get from the start here which is
:26:53. > :26:57.shown by a triangle, to the finish, visiting all of these points. The
:26:58. > :27:03.aim is to go as fast as you can. So a star of 1.5 kilometres. The
:27:04. > :27:06.control point to getting more challenging because of the
:27:07. > :27:11.buildings, it is a jungle out there. It has made the sport a lot quicker.
:27:12. > :27:15.Taken it out of for grace and moved it into a whole new area where it's
:27:16. > :27:19.all about speed, the speed of running and the speed of making your

:27:29. > :27:32.So alongside that building, it's more about the map reading rather
:27:33. > :27:37.than the running, isn't it? It is. We've got it! Number two! Is not
:27:38. > :27:40.just about being the fastest runner but more importantly reading my new
:27:41. > :27:46.details on the map correctly. It's closed. You can see here we have
:27:47. > :27:50.that... There is a tiny fence in there. Show everybody there.

:28:00. > :28:04.Sorry, I thought you were looking for a control point. You have to be
:28:05. > :28:08.alert. The best people can read the map as they move. This kid seems to

:28:41. > :28:44.with family, with friends or by yourself and you can come and do it
:28:45. > :28:48.like this we may not think you can come and try it. The British team

:28:58. > :29:04.finish! Oh, dear, I forgot that big... There is a lot to think about
:29:05. > :29:07.and I went way off track which is why I am so far behind the winner
:29:08. > :29:14.who finished the course in ten minutes. So orienteering in Salford.
:29:15. > :29:17.I think it is probably meant to be a little mora mode you know,

:29:34. > :29:35.It did look like a lot of fun. I plan to convert everybody over the

:33:27. > :33:30.Do you want to do your impression of an octopus again?
:33:31. > :33:37.That wasn't an impression... There's no stop to your talents!
:33:38. > :33:46.Let's find out what's happening in the sport. From an octopus to the
:33:47. > :33:51.Lions. A week today we will be talking about their first big test
:33:52. > :33:56.against the All Blacks. It is another huge morning of live rugby.
:33:57. > :33:58.Scotland claim Australia, England's women are playing New Zealand. Let's
:33:59. > :34:02.get into the rugby. As I say, this time next week we'll
:34:03. > :34:05.be gearing up for the British and Irish Lions
:34:06. > :34:08.first test against New Zealand. They've two final warm up
:34:09. > :34:10.matches to go though. In one hour they'll kick
:34:11. > :34:13.off their biggest match of the tour Katie Gornall joins
:34:14. > :34:25.us live from Rotorua. Lovely to see you. How are they
:34:26. > :34:31.doing so far on the tour of New Zealand? Yes, this is often referred
:34:32. > :34:35.to as the fourth test, such is the calibre and passion of the
:34:36. > :34:45.opposition. That's kind of menace for the Lions. Two wins and two
:34:46. > :34:49.defeats. Warren Gatland named what is as close as possible as we think
:34:50. > :34:55.to a starting 15 here. Remember, Owen Farrell, the star fly half, is
:34:56. > :35:01.already out with an injury. Sam Warburton has been named. Jonny
:35:02. > :35:06.Sexton is number 1080 hasn't been at his best throughout the tour. A bit
:35:07. > :35:13.of pressure on him. This is huge for the Lions. Not just for them but
:35:14. > :35:20.also for morale. A lot of people talking about this game here as
:35:21. > :35:27.potentially... INAUDIBLE. A lot of people talking about a few new call
:35:28. > :35:30.ups. They call up for four new Welsh players has lots of people talking
:35:31. > :35:39.and it has been fairly controversial? It has. We heard the
:35:40. > :35:43.news about one hour ago that a Welshman has had to pull out because
:35:44. > :35:48.of a back injury. No direct replacement for him, but Warren
:35:49. > :35:56.Gatland already called up four Welsh players. It just means that none of
:35:57. > :36:00.the test players will play in the two games. It is logistically
:36:01. > :36:04.difficult for him because Wales played last night in Auckland, so
:36:05. > :36:07.all of these players are in the same time zone. But it has been the
:36:08. > :36:11.subject of some controversy because those for players, the majority of
:36:12. > :36:20.them would have been nowhere near the Lyons-- Lions' test squad when
:36:21. > :36:23.it was first announced. Eddie Jones says he thinks players should be
:36:24. > :36:29.picked on merit, not geography, and that has caused the debate around
:36:30. > :36:35.here. Whether that devalues the Lions in some way, but I am sure
:36:36. > :36:39.Warren Gatland will be asked about that. We will have to see what he
:36:40. > :36:50.says afterwards. And we've already had a good game and a really good
:36:51. > :36:56.result for England's women? It is a cracking game. It was here on the
:36:57. > :37:00.pitch in the stadium. INAUDIBLE... If it's anything like the match we
:37:01. > :37:05.have seen them we are in for a real treat. England are the world
:37:06. > :37:08.champions. New Zealand, they are the number-1 ranked team in the world.
:37:09. > :37:14.Little to separate them the first half. It set off at a fantastic
:37:15. > :37:18.pace. 14- 14 at the break. At after the break England started to pull
:37:19. > :37:23.away. Too much power for the New Zealand team. It finished 29- 21 to
:37:24. > :37:29.England, their first win here since 2001. The way they celebrated, you
:37:30. > :37:32.could understand how much it means for them. They win the international
:37:33. > :37:36.women's series, which is a warmup for the World Cup. Fantastic news
:37:37. > :37:40.for England. The World Cup in Ireland is just around the corner,
:37:41. > :37:43.in August, and they are in good shape for that. Thank you very much
:37:44. > :37:47.for bringing us up to date. Later when we know what the
:37:48. > :37:53.result is for the Lions in that match against the Maori All Blacks.
:37:54. > :37:57.Apologies for the break up spare. But you could understand what she
:37:58. > :37:58.was saying. Her news coming from a long way away.
:37:59. > :38:01.It also looks likely that Scottish pair Finn Russell and Allan Dell
:38:02. > :38:04.are going to join up with the Lions squad too.
:38:05. > :38:07.They're both currently in action this morning in Sydney
:38:08. > :38:09.and it's been a thrilling contest so far between
:38:10. > :38:14.And Russell has been amongst the scorers.
:38:15. > :38:25.For the first time since World Rankings began,
:38:26. > :38:29.in 1986, the world's top three golfers have missed the cut
:38:30. > :38:33.Dustin Johnson, Rory McIlroy and Jason Day are all out of the US
:38:34. > :38:39.While they were struggling, others were making light of the huge
:38:40. > :38:43.England's Paul Casey set the early pace, finishing on seven under.
:38:44. > :38:50.There he was joined by another Englishman, Tommy Fleetwood.
:38:51. > :38:53.They are both part of a four-way tie for the lead,
:38:54. > :38:55.with the Americans Brian Harman and Brooks Koepka.
:38:56. > :38:59.At least I know what's in there, it's just a matter of getting it out
:39:00. > :39:02.of me and getting myself in the right frame of mind.
:39:03. > :39:05.Yesterday, coming off the injury and a month off,
:39:06. > :39:11.I got off to a good start, but it sort of caught up with me
:39:12. > :39:16.But the more rounds I play, hopefully I'll get rid of all that
:39:17. > :39:18.stuff and hopefully strip it down to what you saw
:39:19. > :39:22.For me it felt like it played tougher today.
:39:23. > :39:28...too much of a change for this golf course
:39:29. > :39:32.If it stays like it is, with the wind, it will be
:39:33. > :39:35.treacherous on the weekend, which is just what I and most
:39:36. > :39:43.Football and could Cristiano Ronaldo be on his way back to the Premier
:39:44. > :39:47.A source close to the player has told the BBC that he wants to leave
:39:48. > :39:50.The former Manchester United forward has had an incredible few seasons
:39:51. > :39:52.for Real, winning three Champions Leagues
:39:53. > :39:54.and breaking all manner of goalscoring records,
:39:55. > :39:56.but he's been accused of tax fraud in Spain,
:39:57. > :40:02.an accusation that is making him consider his future in the country.
:40:03. > :40:04.Thanks to goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, England's Under-21s
:40:05. > :40:07.drew their opening match with Sweden at the European Championship,
:40:08. > :40:16.a day after completing a record ?30 million move to Everton.
:40:17. > :40:19.Pickford produced this penalty save with about ten minutes
:40:20. > :40:21.remaining, to help England draw 0-0 in Poland.
:40:22. > :40:27.They face the hosts and Slovakia in their remaining group games.
:40:28. > :40:29.A vital save there from Jordan Pickford.
:40:30. > :40:31.Johanna Konta will play in the semi finals
:40:32. > :40:33.at the Nottingham Open this afternoon
:40:34. > :40:35.as she overcame Australia's Ashleigh Barty in straights sets yesterday
:40:36. > :40:38.in her first tournament on home soil since breaking
:40:39. > :40:41.She'll play Slovakia's Magdalena Rybarikova for a place
:40:42. > :40:44.The Aegon Championships begin at Queen's on Monday
:40:45. > :40:51.with Andy Murray bidding for a record sixth title.
:40:52. > :40:55.The defending Wimbledon champion, who has spent nearly a year as World
:40:56. > :40:59.has admitted that time could be running out for him at the very top
:41:00. > :41:03.I know some of the players have been doing really well
:41:04. > :41:05.into their mid-30s, recently, but that might not be
:41:06. > :41:12.It might...maybe these next couple of years are the last few
:41:13. > :41:16.where I have a chance to compete for the majors and the biggest
:41:17. > :41:19.tournaments, so I do want to make the most of them.
:41:20. > :41:22.Leeds Rhinos are into the semi finals of Rugby League's challenge
:41:23. > :41:23.Cup after thrashing Featherstone Rovers 58-0.
:41:24. > :41:27.Leeds are a step closer to winning the competition for a third time
:41:28. > :41:30.in four years, running in ten tries against their Championship
:41:31. > :41:38.In Super League, Huddersfield beat St Helens.
:41:39. > :41:40.Nottinghamshire Outlaws have completed the highest successful run
:41:41. > :41:43.chase in limited overs cricket, chasing 371 to beat Essex Eagles
:41:44. > :41:46.in the semi final of the One Day Cup.
:41:47. > :41:48.Alastair Cook had made a century in Essex's mammoth
:41:49. > :41:51.total, but an unbeaten 122 from former England all rounder
:41:52. > :41:54.Samit Patel helped see Notts home with just three balls to spare,
:41:55. > :41:57.and that means they're into the Lord's final
:41:58. > :42:05.And the Queen's Birthday Honours have recognised a number of figures
:42:06. > :42:08.Double Olympic rowing champion Heather Stanning,
:42:09. > :42:11.who won her second gold with Helen Glover in Rio
:42:12. > :42:18.Lions prop Rory Best has also been made an OBE.
:42:19. > :42:20.The coach who guided Great Britain's women to hockey gold
:42:21. > :42:23.in Rio, Danny Kerry, has received an MBE,
:42:24. > :42:26.as has world superbike champion Jonathan Rae and Northern Ireland
:42:27. > :42:41.I've seen kind of first-hand that your role models,
:42:42. > :42:44.of course they are important and they inspire and excite,
:42:45. > :42:46.but any sport is only as good as its grassroots.
:42:47. > :42:49.So for me, four years ago I was so determined
:42:50. > :42:53.that there would be a long-term legacy from what Jamie and Andy have
:42:54. > :42:56.achieved in Scotland and so I set about creating these grass-roots
:42:57. > :42:59.programmes that I felt like I could have a much more
:43:00. > :43:01.long-term effect by sharing everything that I have learnt
:43:02. > :43:05.over my coaching career with as many people as I could.
:43:06. > :43:14.We usually only see Judy Murray chewing her fingernails, especially
:43:15. > :43:18.at Wimbledon! But she works so hard out on the road, taking tennis into
:43:19. > :43:23.schools and making sure young kids are going out on the court.
:43:24. > :43:26.What you think is better, OBE or Olympic gold?
:43:27. > :43:30.Olympic gold. You've thought about that!
:43:31. > :43:38.I think Olympic gold is what you put the work into. An OBE is a nice
:43:39. > :43:42.result. Another of the lovely accolades you get for all of that
:43:43. > :43:45.hard work and for being the very best in the world.
:43:46. > :43:50.Incredible, both. Thank you.
:43:51. > :43:56.It will be a lovely sunny day today for most people.
:43:57. > :44:00.Not everybody, because a few of you have got in touch to say it is
:44:01. > :44:03.cloudy and grey where you are. Some people say that's good news.
:44:04. > :44:07.You don't need to say sorry, Helen can say sorry.
:44:08. > :44:11.If you were listening to her earlier she said it wouldn't be sunny
:44:12. > :44:18.everywhere! -- would be. I did. It's not sunny everywhere
:44:19. > :44:21.this morning. But some of you who are waking up to grey skies perhaps
:44:22. > :44:25.in the south-west of Wales and Cumbria, that cloud should go,
:44:26. > :44:29.especially across Wales and the south-west. This cloud across
:44:30. > :44:32.Scotland is a weather front and is meandering around the west of
:44:33. > :44:36.Scotland and Northern Ireland. This is how it looked in Cumbria about
:44:37. > :44:40.half an hour ago. We have great cloud around but it is on the way
:44:41. > :44:44.out. We have sunshine for many, for the majority. As I've been
:44:45. > :44:51.mentioning this morning, very unusually high levels of UV. That's
:44:52. > :44:54.up to eight in northern England very often in this country.
:44:55. > :44:59.Unfortunately, if you suffer from hay fever, very high levels of
:45:00. > :45:03.pollen with us up to the Scottish Borders. So some warnings to start
:45:04. > :45:08.with. For many it will be very enjoyable. Our first extended normal
:45:09. > :45:13.spell of hot and sunny weather this season. We should have it for three
:45:14. > :45:16.or four days, except under this weather front in the north. It is
:45:17. > :45:20.the Highlands of Scotland in particular. Today the Northern Isles
:45:21. > :45:29.joining in with that cloud because yesterday we had sunshine here. 23-
:45:30. > :45:34.25 in Scotland and Northern Ireland and around the coast, if you find
:45:35. > :45:39.these temperatures stifling, more like 20- 21 around the coast,
:45:40. > :45:44.records the temperatures still low, about 12- 13, setting in motion a
:45:45. > :45:47.refreshing sea breeze. It even around the coast where it is only
:45:48. > :45:52.about 21 degrees the sunshine is still as strong as when it is 28- 29
:45:53. > :45:57.inland, which catches a few people out. More likely to get burnt. The
:45:58. > :46:00.changes as the temperatures don't drop much overnight and it will be
:46:01. > :46:04.uncomfortable for sleeping, especially in southern and eastern
:46:05. > :46:10.areas, as the humidity rises. That will progress northwards. You don't
:46:11. > :46:14.get any relief by night if you don't like the heat. Tomorrow it is pretty
:46:15. > :46:17.much the same. If anything, less cloud around and misting us in the
:46:18. > :46:21.morning and we've still got the weather front plaguing the
:46:22. > :46:24.north-west of Scotland. Elsewhere, temperatures respond to the strong
:46:25. > :46:29.sunshine. If anything they will be higher than today. We should break
:46:30. > :46:33.30 degrees tomorrow, which will be the first time this year. That warm
:46:34. > :46:38.and hot weather is increasingly humid and it won't just be for this
:46:39. > :46:42.weekend. It does continue into the beginning of next week. Especially
:46:43. > :46:45.across England and Wales. However, even further north it is only slowly
:46:46. > :46:58.starting to cool down. Thank you very much. Now it is time
:46:59. > :46:59.for news watch. We are looking at the coverage of the general election
:47:00. > :47:03.and the coverage of the tower fire. Hello and welcome to Newswatch
:47:04. > :47:06.with me Samira Ahmed. Praise but also concerns about how
:47:07. > :47:09.BBC News reported the terrible And was the general election result
:47:10. > :47:17.wrongly presented as a disaster for the Conservatives
:47:18. > :47:26.and a triumph for Labour? There have been many shocking
:47:27. > :47:29.and distressing images on the news recently and Tuesday night's fire
:47:30. > :47:33.which engulfed a west London block The following morning

:47:39. > :47:44.two of his children. Honestly, it's all right,
:47:45. > :48:07.you don't have to say any more. Sandra Martin e-mailed

:48:37. > :48:51.about the BBC's coverage following the fire,
:48:52. > :48:57.here are his thoughts: Is it now the job of
:48:58. > :49:00.BBC reporters to chase the bereaved, the despairing, and,
:49:01. > :49:10.basically, wring out every last drop of despair from that person
:49:11. > :49:12.in the interests of ratings? I watched one particular person
:49:13. > :49:15.being interviewed with a microphone They were crying,
:49:16. > :49:20.they were distraught, they had lost somebody,
:49:21. > :49:22.they had no idea what had happened There just seemed to be no
:49:23. > :49:31.benefit in this interview. But that's the impression
:49:32. > :49:37.you are starting to give. Later, on Wednesday,
:49:38. > :49:39.news bulletins were presented from the site of the still burning
:49:40. > :49:48.tower with Sophie Raworth fronting the News at Six on location,
:49:49. > :49:51.and Hugh Edwards doing the same Scores of viewers said they found it

:50:05. > :50:08.of people's loved ones. A channel should pool
:50:09. > :50:12.resources, share footage, And if you must, have the basic
:50:13. > :50:19.respect and human decency to not treat it like a chat back
:50:20. > :50:27.on a studio sofa. Thank you for all of your thoughts
:50:28. > :50:30.on the issues arising out of the coverage
:50:31. > :50:32.of the Grenfell Tower fire. We may well be discussing them
:50:33. > :50:36.with the BBC News editor next week. It's been a week since
:50:37. > :50:40.the general election results and its implications
:50:41. > :50:45.are still unclear. Last Friday political editor
:50:46. > :50:47.Laura Kuenssberg reflected on what was widely considered to be
:50:48. > :50:53.something of a political earthquake. And what we're saying
:50:54. > :51:00.is the Conservatives are the largest party,
:51:01. > :51:05.note they don't have an overall Gradually, seat after seat,
:51:06. > :51:11.was glorious shock for Labour. Loss after loss for
:51:12. > :51:15.the Conservatives. Images of cheering Labour
:51:16. > :51:19.politicians and supporters, and of disappointed or angry
:51:20. > :51:22.Conservatives made it hard to remember at times that the latter
:51:23. > :51:25.had won 56 more seats When the Prime Minister emerged
:51:26. > :51:34.from ten Downing St on Friday was the question Laura Kuenssberg
:51:35. > :51:37.shouted out to her. Is this strong and stable,
:51:38. > :51:39.Prime Minister? But she had won, some Newswatch
:51:40. > :51:43.viewers pointed out. At least in the sense
:51:44. > :51:46.that the Conservatives were forming And Graham Watts objected
:51:47. > :52:18.to what he saw as: There certainly
:52:19. > :52:21.seemed to be some relish in comments on Sunday's Andrew Marr Show,
:52:22. > :52:28.repeated widely on BBC News. It's just how long she's
:52:29. > :52:33.going to remain on death row. David Hines objected to the airtime
:52:34. > :52:38.given to that phrase, Later in the week on Thursday
:52:39. > :53:01.night, there was Laura about how the government might
:53:02. > :53:04.respond to the London Remember also right now this
:53:05. > :53:16.is an extremely fragile government, the State Opening of Parliament
:53:17. > :53:18.is not even underway, Theresa May
:53:19. > :53:20.is only just days after Nigel Rawlins was one
:53:21. > :53:24.of a number of viewers to pick up the phrase there,
:53:25. > :53:26.a bruising political defeat, The charge of a lack
:53:27. > :53:36.of political balance was one we heard many times
:53:37. > :53:39.during the election campaign. For instance, after the BBC's
:53:40. > :53:42.debate from Cambridge, eight days before the vote,
:53:43. > :53:46.featuring the leaders of Ukip, Plaid Cymru, the Greens,
:53:47. > :53:48.the Liberal Democrats And representatives from the SNP
:53:49. > :53:53.and the Conservatives. But since the result,
:53:54. > :53:56.the omission from that line-up, and from most of the coverage
:53:57. > :53:59.of the Democratic Unionist Party and other Northern Irish parties,
:54:00. > :54:02.has been questioned by viewers such as Jack O'Dwyer Henry,
:54:03. > :54:07.who recorded this video for us. As a Northern Irish voter
:54:08. > :54:09.I was somewhat dissatisfied with the BBC's general election
:54:10. > :54:12.coverage because it didn't seem to include the parties
:54:13. > :54:15.from Northern Ireland and never the issues Northern Irish
:54:16. > :54:17.voters were concerned I think this is especially obvious
:54:18. > :54:26.whenever it came to the big set piece television debates
:54:27. > :54:28.and interviews of the campaigns, such as the leaders debates,
:54:29. > :54:31.and the leaders interviews First, I'd like to ask
:54:32. > :54:38.what the justification is for excluding all
:54:39. > :54:40.Northern Ireland parties And secondly, given that the DUP
:54:41. > :54:44.is in such a prominent national position after the election,
:54:45. > :54:46.will the BBC reconsider this for Let's discuss some of those
:54:47. > :54:59.issues which the BBC's head of news gathering,
:55:00. > :55:01.Jonathan Munro. In hindsight was it a mistake,
:55:02. > :55:06.it was, wasn't it, not to include No, it wasn't a mistake
:55:07. > :55:10.it was deliberate. The reason for it there are five
:55:11. > :55:13.parties in Northern Ireland Parties of significant support
:55:14. > :55:16.in the constituencies We cannot put the DUP
:55:17. > :55:20.into a networked programme without also putting Sinn Fein,
:55:21. > :55:22.the SDLP Alliance, That would have taken Cambridge
:55:23. > :55:27.from a 7 handed debate It would have been completely
:55:28. > :55:32.impossible to Marshall. People in the rest of the UK don't
:55:33. > :55:37.have the option to vote for the DUP, whereas everyone on the Cambridge
:55:38. > :55:40.debate was facing each other in some So what we did instead was we did
:55:41. > :55:46.a Northern Ireland only debate on the Tuesday just before polling
:55:47. > :55:49.day, which went out in Northern Ireland,
:55:50. > :55:52.and was then seen on the BBC News Viewers have complained that the BBC
:55:53. > :55:55.presented the election result is a triumph for Labour and defeat
:55:56. > :55:58.for the Conservatives. We reported it as a result
:55:59. > :56:06.relative to expectations. Theresa May herself said that
:56:07. > :56:09.if she lost six seats to Labour she would have lost the election,
:56:10. > :56:12.that was her phrase, not ours. Obviously she lost a lot
:56:13. > :56:15.more than that, in fact She was, of course, as we know,
:56:16. > :56:19.the leader of the biggest party in the Commons,
:56:20. > :56:22.and therefore forming a minority Relative to expectations,
:56:23. > :56:25.it was undeniably a setback for the Conservative Party,
:56:26. > :56:27.and undeniably better achievement for Labour
:56:28. > :56:30.than they better expected. Expectations, this is what viewers
:56:31. > :56:32.are concerned about, They've been wrong in previous
:56:33. > :56:38.elections, such as the referendum. Newswatch viewers have said the BBC
:56:39. > :56:42.has allowed itself to get swept up into focusing on expectations
:56:43. > :56:44.when covering the election. When you should just
:56:45. > :56:46.be reporting facts. Every election comes with a,
:56:47. > :56:48.a degree of expectation about what the result might
:56:49. > :56:52.leave us with. At this election, people
:56:53. > :56:55.of the Conservative Party and the Labour Party were saying
:56:56. > :56:59.to us, both privately and indeed on the record,
:57:00. > :57:02.and in interviews, the Conservatives I remember Nicola Sturgeon doing
:57:03. > :57:08.an interview for the BBC in which she used that exact phrase,
:57:09. > :57:11.we are headed for a So, the expectations were quite out
:57:12. > :57:15.there in terms of where people All those expectations
:57:16. > :57:18.turned out to be false. And it really depends on the work
:57:19. > :57:22.that's done now about how voters behaved when political analysts get
:57:23. > :57:25.involved about why that happened. With every election
:57:26. > :57:26.there was a learning Some viewers detected a sense
:57:27. > :57:30.of relish and colleagues in the reporters' tone and questions
:57:31. > :57:33.to the Prime Minister. Notably the repeating
:57:34. > :57:35.of George Osborne's dead I think it's a slightly odd thing
:57:36. > :57:41.to ask is not to report what the former Chancellor
:57:42. > :57:44.of the Exchequer, who was sacked by Theresa May, is now
:57:45. > :57:46.a major newspaper editor, There was no relish in any
:57:47. > :57:51.of the questions... The strong and stable
:57:52. > :57:53.comment shouted at her? But Mrs May campaigned on a mandate
:57:54. > :57:57.for a strong and stable government. In the spirit of robust questioning,
:57:58. > :58:02.and calling people to account, it's perfectly reasonable for us
:58:03. > :58:07.to put that back to her. Looking back, what should the BBC
:58:08. > :58:10.not do, or do differently next time Well, I think it all depends
:58:11. > :58:17.on the circumstances There is bound to be a different
:58:18. > :58:21.political landscape. There will be new programme ideas,
:58:22. > :58:24.things we will do differently, I think one of the things
:58:25. > :58:28.that we did very well this time around, and want to do even more of,
:58:29. > :58:31.is tapping into the youth vote, which we think turned out in bigger
:58:32. > :58:34.numbers than people expected. So, although there was a dedicated
:58:35. > :58:37.Newsbeat debate for young voters just before the election,
:58:38. > :58:40.I'd like to see even more voices from the younger generation's
:58:41. > :58:43.first-time voters and see them even Thank you for all your

:02:21. > :02:22.you. Angry protests have been held
:02:23. > :02:26.in London as residents demand more support for those affected
:02:27. > :02:35.by the Grenfell Tower Fire. The government has pledged
:02:36. > :02:37.?5 million to help victims Around 70 people are thought to be
:02:38. > :02:42.'dead or missing' and last night the community held a candlelit vigil
:02:43. > :02:45.near to the site of the disaster. From where Frankie
:02:46. > :02:49.McCamley joins us now. The search entering its fourth day,
:02:50. > :02:55.and growing anger from some about the response of the authorities.
:02:56. > :03:00.Yes, absolutely. A lot of emotions surrounding this tragedy. Where I
:03:01. > :03:04.am, it's about 100 metres from Grenfell Tower. This is a local
:03:05. > :03:08.church, one of the areas where people have laid flowers and lit
:03:09. > :03:12.candles and of course leave posters of their loved ones who are still
:03:13. > :03:18.missing. I have been speaking to people inside this church who are
:03:19. > :03:22.running the church. They say that thousands of boxes have been
:03:23. > :03:27.donated, they have been overwhelmed with people showing support, sending
:03:28. > :03:33.clothes and food and essentials needed, today people are arriving
:03:34. > :03:36.here, coming to pay their respects, it is still quiet, which is very
:03:37. > :03:41.different to the scenes that we saw yesterday.
:03:42. > :03:47.A moment to grieve for a community still coming to terms with what has
:03:48. > :03:53.happened this week. Side by side, hundreds held a two-minute silence.
:03:54. > :03:58.Because we're doing a candle vigil we stopped a riot. Earlier the kids
:03:59. > :04:01.were getting angry because no one is communicating what is going on.
:04:02. > :04:05.There is no coordination at the moment, I've been here three days
:04:06. > :04:08.and I haven't seen one council official to turn up and take
:04:09. > :04:16.responsibility and say we need to organise something, exactly. And
:04:17. > :04:21.that anger came to a head earlier on with protesters storming Kensington
:04:22. > :04:27.and Chelsea town hall demanding more information and calling for justice.
:04:28. > :04:30.In Westminster large crowds gathered, making their way to
:04:31. > :04:35.Downing Street before marching along Regent Street to the headquarters of
:04:36. > :04:39.the BBC with a clear message to the Prime Minister, who yesterday,
:04:40. > :04:44.protected behind police officers, met victims and volunteers at a
:04:45. > :04:50.local church. But appearance did not go down well with anger boiling over
:04:51. > :04:53.outside. Mrs May has announced ?5 million to help those affected,
:04:54. > :04:58.promising to re-home everyone and get to the bottom of what has
:04:59. > :05:03.happened. But with so many still missing, others dead or feared dead,
:05:04. > :05:11.the questions keep growing but the answers are simply not there.
:05:12. > :05:18.And there are still many questions to be answered as the investigation
:05:19. > :05:23.is carried on. Behind me you might be able to see activity, and number
:05:24. > :05:27.of investigations are taking place, three to be precise, one by the Fire
:05:28. > :05:32.and Rescue Service looking into the fire to find out how it started and
:05:33. > :05:36.wide spread so quickly, please have also launched a criminal
:05:37. > :05:40.investigation to find out who, if anyone, is responsible for this.
:05:41. > :05:45.They say they do not believe the fire was started deliberately but
:05:46. > :05:49.they will look into whether the safety checks were in place. And of
:05:50. > :05:52.course the Prime Minister Theresa May has ordered a public inquiry,
:05:53. > :05:57.she says she wants to get to the bottom of exactly what happened. As
:05:58. > :06:04.it stands, 70 people believed or dead. Firefighters won't be able to
:06:05. > :06:10.confirm those numbers yet until they can get into those building behind
:06:11. > :06:17.me, now completely charred, it was home to hundreds of people. Thank
:06:18. > :06:18.you, very much, Frankie, at Grenfell Tower, we will be back with you
:06:19. > :06:20.later. As Frankie said the Prime Minister
:06:21. > :06:23.faced hostility during her visit Let's talk to our Political
:06:24. > :06:33.Correspondent Emma Vardy - There has been much focus, Emma, and
:06:34. > :06:38.how Theresa May has reacted and how people have reacted to her
:06:39. > :06:41.reactions. Absolutely, it's been an extraordinarily difficult few days
:06:42. > :06:45.for Theresa May and the government. Of course people have legitimate
:06:46. > :06:48.questions. There is a legitimate outpouring of grief but the
:06:49. > :06:52.government is having to balance that with the need to take things step by
:06:53. > :07:00.step and act responsibly and is not able to provide all the answers that
:07:01. > :07:04.people are demanding. On Newsnight last night Theresa May underlined
:07:05. > :07:07.that ?5 million emergency fund being made available yet she came under
:07:08. > :07:12.pressure as to whether her personal response has been adequate, whether
:07:13. > :07:17.she has struck the right emotional chord at this time. This is an
:07:18. > :07:22.absolutely awful fire that took place. People have lost their lives.
:07:23. > :07:28.People have had their homes destroyed. They have fled for their
:07:29. > :07:33.lives, with absolutely nothing. Do you accept that you miss read the
:07:34. > :07:38.public mood on this one, you must read the anger that people feel on
:07:39. > :07:43.this one, they shouted "Coward" at you this afternoon when you left
:07:44. > :07:46.Saint Clements. What I have done since this incident happened, is
:07:47. > :07:49.first of all yesterday ensure the public services have the support
:07:50. > :07:56.they needed to be able to do the job they were doing in the immediate
:07:57. > :07:59.aftermath. But this is three days on, they needed those things on
:08:00. > :08:04.Wednesday. There were people that we spoke to who are housed for one
:08:05. > :08:07.night, did not know where they would spend the next night, had no money
:08:08. > :08:12.for food and were not told anything or anyone, no one was in charge.
:08:13. > :08:16.What I've done today is ensured that as a government we are putting that
:08:17. > :08:23.funding in place the people in that area. We've seen the government said
:08:24. > :08:27.this morning that it is now determined to build trust with
:08:28. > :08:33.survivors of this tragedy, a more conciliatory tone this morning. And
:08:34. > :08:37.also we saw the Queen visiting survivors of the fire yesterday and
:08:38. > :08:43.people waiting for news of loved ones. That's right, the Queen has
:08:44. > :08:47.now put out a statement saying it is difficult to escape a very sombre
:08:48. > :08:50.national mood. She said in recent months the country has witnessed a
:08:51. > :08:54.succession of terrible tragedies and as a nation we are still praying for
:08:55. > :08:57.people who have been affected by recent events. Thank you very much
:08:58. > :09:04.for the moment, Emma. US officials say seven crew members
:09:05. > :09:06.are missing and three have been injured after a US Navy destroyer
:09:07. > :09:09.collided with a merchant ship The commander of the USS Fitzgerald
:09:10. > :09:13.and another sailor had to be Our Tokyo correspondent
:09:14. > :09:16.Rupert Wingfield Hayes told us that questions are being asked
:09:17. > :09:23.about what exactly happened. It is very unusual and it is very
:09:24. > :09:30.serious that such a sophisticated chip as this, the USS Fitzgerald,
:09:31. > :09:35.one of the most modern and sophisticated warships in the world
:09:36. > :09:40.with an array of different types of radar and sensors, how did this
:09:41. > :09:47.ship, on a night, collide with a large merchant vessel of the coast
:09:48. > :09:51.of Japan. It is a busy part of the sea, these are highly trained crews
:09:52. > :09:58.nonetheless. A lot of questions have been raised by this, it has caused
:09:59. > :10:02.extensive damage to the USS Fitzgerald. I've seen pictures from
:10:03. > :10:09.the scene, this huge gash down the side of the destroyer, the bow of
:10:10. > :10:13.the cargo vessel appears to have penetrated the side of the Navy
:10:14. > :10:17.destroyer both above and below the water line and has taken on water,
:10:18. > :10:22.it is listing to one side although I understand from the US Navy that it
:10:23. > :10:27.is not at risk of thinking. That is Rupert Wingfield Hayes in Tokyo.
:10:28. > :10:30.A jury in the US state of Minnesota has acquitted a police officer
:10:31. > :10:32.who fatally shot an African-American man after pulling him over
:10:33. > :10:35.Philando Castile's girlfriend, who was beside him
:10:36. > :10:37.in the car, live-streamed his dying moments on Facebook last July.
:10:38. > :10:50.We got pulled over for a busted tail light and the police, he's just
:10:51. > :10:54.killed my boyfriend. Philando Castile was pulled over by the
:10:55. > :10:59.police because he had a faulty brake light. Minutes later he was shot

:13:00. > :13:02.past eight o'clock. Let's go back to our top story.
:13:03. > :13:04.Over the last few days we've been hearing horrific stories
:13:05. > :13:06.of loss and devastation after the Grenfell Tower
:13:07. > :13:11.But amongst those stories there have been tales of kindness,
:13:12. > :13:12.we've seen community spirit and heroism.
:13:13. > :13:14.Residents and emergency service workers, willing to put their lives
:13:15. > :13:27.One of those was off-duty nurse Simone Williams who ran to the scene
:13:28. > :13:29.in her slippers to treat those in need when she heard
:13:30. > :13:31.She joins us now from our London newsroom...
:13:32. > :13:37.Good morning, Simone, we are grateful to you for joining us. You
:13:38. > :13:41.were off duty, but you heard about the fire and you went to see what
:13:42. > :13:44.you could do. Just talk us through those first few minutes when you
:13:45. > :13:49.became aware that something seriously wrong was happening at the
:13:50. > :13:52.Tower. I was actually at home asleep when I heard a lot of sirens and
:13:53. > :13:58.there were lots of flashing lights and I heard a helicopter overhead. I
:13:59. > :14:03.live in central London so it isn't unusual to hear this but it was
:14:04. > :14:08.increasing. More sirens, so I ran outside to see what was happening. A
:14:09. > :14:14.gentleman ran past me, I said, where are you going, he said, my building
:14:15. > :14:19.is on fire. So I ran with him, naturally, to see what I could do.
:14:20. > :14:24.And as we said you were not working at that point. But what stage did
:14:25. > :14:28.that instinct kicked in to do what you are trained to do, to go and
:14:29. > :14:33.help those people? That instinct is within me at all times, to be honest
:14:34. > :14:38.with you. It is not just because I'm a nurse, it is my moral compass to
:14:39. > :14:43.help people. So I just went to where I knew people would need my help.
:14:44. > :14:47.And when you arrived clearly this was still in the early stages of
:14:48. > :14:50.that fire, we've heard those accounts of how quickly the fire
:14:51. > :14:56.spread, tell us what you saw when you arrived there. It was absolutely
:14:57. > :15:00.horrendous. It was a lot of screaming. You could hear crackling,
:15:01. > :15:11.popping, you could see people from the Windows with makeshift flags,
:15:12. > :15:18.waving them. It was just, as you could imagine, absolutely awful. It
:15:19. > :15:23.was something you never want to see again. I understand how difficult it
:15:24. > :15:26.is to relive all of this but what is so interesting and important is that
:15:27. > :15:32.response from the emergency services, yourself included.
:15:33. > :15:36.Relatively organised, the response, given the circumstances, because you
:15:37. > :15:41.have talked about how you are allocated a set of people to help,
:15:42. > :15:43.and you were able to fit in with an organised response to processing
:15:44. > :15:49.people and the walking wounded, certainly in your case. That is
:15:50. > :15:54.definitely true. It was very organised. I have to say a big
:15:55. > :15:57.respect to the firefighters, because, you know, even they, when
:15:58. > :16:01.they came out of that building, I could see the looks of horror and
:16:02. > :16:05.shock on their faces as if they had never seen anything like it. The
:16:06. > :16:13.police were very supportive. The paramedics. The Salvation Army. Just
:16:14. > :16:18.the general, our community, amazing, people were bringing things out of
:16:19. > :16:24.their houses to help us, blankets, clothes, you name it. We've seen
:16:25. > :16:26.photos of the firefighters who are facing awful conditions, very
:16:27. > :16:31.difficult conditions, you spoke to many of them over the evening, what
:16:32. > :16:40.did they say about the conditions inside? It wasn't really a direct
:16:41. > :16:46.conversation, I'll was listening to what they were saying amongst
:16:47. > :16:51.themselves. And one particular man said, it is awful, awful. He said
:16:52. > :16:58.something about when he got to the tenth floor, the heat. I am just
:16:59. > :17:01.thinking, he was wearing protective gear so imagine those residents or
:17:02. > :17:07.were just wearing their bedclothes to go to bed. And for the people
:17:08. > :17:11.responding we have been discussing help that is helpfully on the way
:17:12. > :17:17.for direct victims and their relatives, what help is available
:17:18. > :17:20.for people like yourselves, the fire and ambulance crews are facing
:17:21. > :17:24.difficult conditions themselves, they do it because it is their job
:17:25. > :17:33.but is the help available for them to deal with this? For myself I
:17:34. > :17:36.definitely have a good support mechanism, I belong to a local
:17:37. > :17:44.church and they are supporting me both emotionally and with prayer.
:17:45. > :17:48.And I also work for a great organisation survey are also
:17:49. > :17:55.supporting me and my family and the community. We just need to pull
:17:56. > :18:01.together as a community and we have to act in love, it is love that will
:18:02. > :18:06.get us through this, and patience and kindness to one another. What
:18:07. > :18:10.would you like to see, what would make the biggest difference to you
:18:11. > :18:13.in terms of how bright now? I'm thinking about the long-term of the
:18:14. > :18:17.bereavement for these young children because I am aware that there are a
:18:18. > :18:23.lot of young children witnessing things that they really should never
:18:24. > :18:29.have to witness. And I really want professional services to come in and
:18:30. > :18:33.support the schools, the local community for the bereavement of
:18:34. > :18:37.these young children and even adults as well but my heart is really going
:18:38. > :18:42.to the young children because it stood out to me, how many young
:18:43. > :18:44.people were outside yesterday witnessing something that they
:18:45. > :18:50.should never have to witness. Absolutely. Simone, I am grateful
:18:51. > :18:53.for your time, thank you for sharing that because it is important to
:18:54. > :18:57.discuss that response from the emergency services and also
:18:58. > :18:59.everything people did after the fire. Thank you very much, Simone
:19:00. > :19:03.Williams. We'll discuss this with
:19:04. > :19:05.First Secretary of State, Damian Green at around half past
:19:06. > :19:15.eight this morning. Let's pause, it is 20 past eight,
:19:16. > :19:19.let's look at the weather. Thank you. Hello, good morning. It is
:19:20. > :19:24.worth pointing out that today we have very high levels of UV across
:19:25. > :19:30.the country. We don't seek levels of aid across the UK very often at all.
:19:31. > :19:34.I have been forecasting for over 20 years, so it's very strong today,
:19:35. > :19:39.the Sun, that's a word of warning because there will be plenty of
:19:40. > :19:43.sunshine around. A few areas which are less sunny, the picture is
:19:44. > :19:46.universal for many of us but in the north-west of England we've got low
:19:47. > :19:51.cloud across the south-west and this weather front in the north, just to
:19:52. > :19:56.show you we do have this cloud, this is an area of language, many weather
:19:57. > :20:00.watchers are showing plenty of sunshine, the cloud in the
:20:01. > :20:04.north-west will lift and break throughout the day. The finals of
:20:05. > :20:07.Northern Ireland and western Scotland, the weather front will
:20:08. > :20:12.stay for most of the day, you can see that breeze just blowing in the
:20:13. > :20:17.cloud, it's not a day the going walking in the Highlands! And in the
:20:18. > :20:21.Island is a lot of cloud and drizzle. After the sunshine in the
:20:22. > :20:25.Northern Isles and to be cloudy here as well, 16 degrees but in the
:20:26. > :20:31.sunshine, even for eastern Scotland and Northern Ireland, we're talking
:20:32. > :20:36.about 24 Celsius, quite rightly inland, a little higher than that as
:20:37. > :20:40.well. Quite a leap up on yesterday. Still a bit more refreshing around
:20:41. > :20:45.the coast if you found that stifling. 21 although still strong
:20:46. > :20:50.sunshine. As you can see in Wisconsin, I am sure Naga will be
:20:51. > :20:54.keeping an eye on the golf, we will have showers around the great Lakes,
:20:55. > :21:00.it has been disturbed weak across the Atlantic. For us very quiet in
:21:01. > :21:05.the night, dry and weather, we will note the drop in temperatures are
:21:06. > :21:10.the uncomfortable humidity will build in the south and the East but
:21:11. > :21:15.that trend will continue north into Monday night. So on Sunday it looks
:21:16. > :21:21.like another very sunny day, if anything, less clout around England
:21:22. > :21:24.and Wales today and more sunshine in Northern Ireland and eastern
:21:25. > :21:28.Scotland but with that weather front again it will feel cooler here and
:21:29. > :21:32.at times quite damp. Further south we will see temperatures a couple of
:21:33. > :21:38.degrees up on today's so it will be hot, if it isn't the hottest day of
:21:39. > :21:41.the year today, we will need to reach 29 degrees, that will
:21:42. > :21:46.certainly continue tomorrow and the heat will continue in England and
:21:47. > :21:55.Wales into Monday and Tuesday but slow cooling off further north. Ben
:21:56. > :21:59.and Naga, thank you. Good to see that we can know what the weather is
:22:00. > :22:03.the Gulf. That's why you pay attention, for the golf! Its 21
:22:04. > :22:06.minutes pass date and time for a look at the newspapers.
:22:07. > :22:14.Political historian Mike Finn is here to tell
:22:15. > :22:23.Lots to get through. This is from the Times, of course related to the
:22:24. > :22:28.Grenfell Tower. Fundamentally the Times has taken this angle about
:22:29. > :22:33.anti-elite settlements. We saw this with the protest but spontaneously
:22:34. > :22:38.emerged yesterday. Viewers may be aware that as you can see in the
:22:39. > :22:41.photos the protesters were arguing justice for the Grenfell Tower
:22:42. > :22:46.survivors, what the newspapers talking about is this sentiment
:22:47. > :22:50.about the vast level of inequality that exists in Kensington and
:22:51. > :22:54.Chelsea, it is one of the richest boroughs in London, indeed Europe
:22:55. > :22:58.and yet they have this inadequate fire safety within this tower. The
:22:59. > :23:02.protesters went with a specific list of questions that they wanted
:23:03. > :23:06.answers for. The council says it has answered some of them yet protesters
:23:07. > :23:12.say they are not firm and clear enough in the response. It's not
:23:13. > :23:16.just about responses to individual questions, it's about cancer
:23:17. > :23:21.responses, people being on the ground, I think it speaks of that
:23:22. > :23:25.broader issue as well. You were a speech writer for the Lib Dems about
:23:26. > :23:30.ten years ago. Essentially the way that politicians react, there's
:23:31. > :23:35.always a certain expectation. As an observer, someone who has touched
:23:36. > :23:39.the political machinery, how do you make about the way that they are
:23:40. > :23:45.positioning themselves in terms of the action? It's clear what the
:23:46. > :23:48.opposition did, Jeremy Corbyn going there straightaway and being on the
:23:49. > :23:52.scene, that's the kind of thing he is comfortable with. The coverage
:23:53. > :23:55.has been very much about the apparently slow response from the
:23:56. > :23:59.Prime Minister. Some of it is fair, some of it is not fair, she was
:24:00. > :24:07.there although the issue was that she didn't meet the residents. She
:24:08. > :24:10.has done now. She has done now. Speaking from a political point of
:24:11. > :24:14.view it is that sense of leadership, people are looking for leadership,
:24:15. > :24:17.consolation, the Gurkhas are to blame and part of being a leader is
:24:18. > :24:21.that you have to shoulder some of that and I think at the moment that
:24:22. > :24:25.message isn't getting through. Let's look at this story in the daily
:24:26. > :24:30.Mirror about Jo Cox, one year since the murder, celebrations up and down
:24:31. > :24:34.the country, a celebration of her life but also this idea of getting
:24:35. > :24:39.to know your neighbours. It's been launched by her family. The
:24:40. > :24:46.headline, the kids see this event as a big party for the mum. A fitting
:24:47. > :24:50.tribute? Yeah. It is hard to believe it has been one year since one of
:24:51. > :24:55.the biggest tragedies in modern politics, traumatic for Jo Cox's
:24:56. > :24:59.family, this is a chance to bid a legacy photo, and this great
:25:00. > :25:04.get-together through the country, meetings in church halls, Village
:25:05. > :25:08.halls, it's an opportunity to build on what she said in her maiden
:25:09. > :25:16.speech which is that we have more in common than that divides us. I love
:25:17. > :25:19.this quote from her widower, he says that his daughter will be doing a
:25:20. > :25:23.dance for the neighbours and his son will be playing the ukelele which he
:25:24. > :25:32.can't play. A very dignified reaction from the family. New Year

:26:44. > :26:48.enemies in the south-west! Historic England has waded into this row.
:26:49. > :26:53.This isn't the picture, the picture is something different but this is
:26:54. > :26:56.about the origins of the humble pasty! Historic England has been
:26:57. > :27:01.running a campaign nationally about objects and things associated with
:27:02. > :27:07.particular locations, like scales from where I come from. They went on
:27:08. > :27:11.radio Devon, and reiterated the sentiment that the pasty was created
:27:12. > :27:16.in Devon, not Cornwall, based on some archival research from Plymouth
:27:17. > :27:21.records office which dates back to 1509. The Cornershop responded with
:27:22. > :27:28.the idea that there cave paintings that shows some and an 8000 BCE to

:32:44. > :32:44.spot a lion but I see what you are doing.
:32:45. > :32:49.The Lions are busy in New Zealand. They will not be floating in the
:32:50. > :32:53.air. They are about to take to the pitch
:32:54. > :32:57.for the fifth game of their tour, feels like they have been there for
:32:58. > :33:03.ages, it is a massive test for them, it's been a really busy morning of
:33:04. > :33:04.rugby, we have had Scotland playing, England's women playing, onto those
:33:05. > :33:06.results in a moment. The Lions have started their
:33:07. > :33:09.toughest test of the tour so far - against the Maori All Blacks
:33:10. > :33:16.in New Zealand. Warren Gatland's side includes six
:33:17. > :33:21.new faces. Johnny Sexton starts at fly half, and in the last few hours
:33:22. > :33:25.former Welsh players have been recalled to join up to the squad,
:33:26. > :33:27.the teams are about to take to the pitch in Rotorua, we will keep you
:33:28. > :33:31.up-to-date with the score. It also looks likely that Scottish
:33:32. > :33:34.pair Finn Russell and Allan Dell are going to join up
:33:35. > :33:36.with the Lions squad too. They've both been in action this
:33:37. > :33:39.morning, helping Scotland They've beaten Australia
:33:40. > :33:42.this morning 24-19. Russell scoring 11 of those points,
:33:43. > :33:53.including this try. It was a great end to the contest,
:33:54. > :33:56.the victory wrapped up It's a second consecutive win
:33:57. > :34:00.for new head coach Gregor Townsend. Ireland were also in action this
:34:01. > :34:02.morning, beating Japan 50-22. England's women are the world's
:34:03. > :34:05.number one side this morning - The Red Roses had beaten
:34:06. > :34:08.Australia and Canada already in the international series -
:34:09. > :34:10.they'll take great confidence from these results in
:34:11. > :34:13.what is a World Cup year. Lydia Thompson, Marlie Packer
:34:14. > :34:15.and Vicky Fleetwood added second half tries to help
:34:16. > :34:20.seal a 21-29 victory. Brilliant from England's and women,
:34:21. > :34:28.the world's number one side now. For the first time since
:34:29. > :34:31.World Rankings began in 1986, the world's top three golfers have
:34:32. > :34:34.missed the cut at a major. Dustin Johnson, Rory McIlroy
:34:35. > :34:36.and Jason Day are all out While they were struggling,
:34:37. > :34:40.others were making light of the huge England's Paul Casey set the early
:34:41. > :34:44.pace, finishing on seven under. There he was joined by another
:34:45. > :34:46.Englishman Tommy Fleetwood. They are both part of a four-way
:34:47. > :34:49.tie for the lead with the Americans Brian Harman
:34:50. > :34:52.and Brooks Koepka. At least I know what's in there,
:34:53. > :34:56.it's just a matter of getting it out of me and getting myself
:34:57. > :34:59.in the right frame of mind. Yesterday, coming off
:35:00. > :35:01.the injury and a month off, I got off to a good start,
:35:02. > :35:07.but it sort of caught up with me But the more rounds I can play,
:35:08. > :35:16.hopefully I'll get rid of all that stuff and hopefully strip it
:35:17. > :35:19.down to what you saw British Number One Johanna Konta

:36:03. > :36:06.Cup. Alastair Cook had made a century

:37:08. > :37:17.She contributes a lot. She does and deservedly receiving a
:37:18. > :37:23.gong in the honours. The time is 8:37am.
:37:24. > :37:26.More on Grenfell Tower now - let's speak to First Secretary
:37:27. > :37:35.Thank you for your time. Good morning. We have a lot to get
:37:36. > :37:40.through, so we will start with the reaction of people still waiting to
:37:41. > :37:42.be rehoused in the Chelsea and Kensington Borough. Many say they
:37:43. > :37:46.still don't know where they are going although the commitment has
:37:47. > :37:50.been made to rehouse people within three weeks. Why aren't people being
:37:51. > :38:00.told where they are going? As fast as we can come as you said, everyone
:38:01. > :38:04.will be housed within three weeks. Many of the survivors of this
:38:05. > :38:07.incident are large families so we must find appropriate properties but
:38:08. > :38:11.we must do it as fast as possible. We are glad of the London councils
:38:12. > :38:20.are cooperating with Kensington and Chelsea so that they can be as
:38:21. > :38:25.possible to where they were living previously. The last thing we want
:38:26. > :38:30.is anyone's lives being disrupted further after this most unspeakable
:38:31. > :38:34.event. Do you think ?5 million is enough? And if it isn't enough is
:38:35. > :38:38.there a contingency to make sure that people are looked after
:38:39. > :38:42.properly and as well as can be? There is some misunderstanding about
:38:43. > :38:48.this. The ?5 million is an immediate payment to make sure that those who
:38:49. > :38:54.need emergency support get it. Certainly there are people who fled
:38:55. > :39:00.literally without clothing, as well as losing all their possessions.
:39:01. > :39:05.This is initial emergency fund to make sure that as fast as possible
:39:06. > :39:11.they can be helped and cared for. But obviously one imagines there
:39:12. > :39:16.will be further expenses of various kinds that, of course, we will meet.
:39:17. > :39:23.You will guarantee you will meet those expenses? Yes. There are many
:39:24. > :39:25.people who are reporters and correspondents have spoken to who
:39:26. > :39:34.are protesting and are very angry, and maybe, many relatives, who say
:39:35. > :39:37.there isn't a centralised system, there isn't anywhere they can go to
:39:38. > :39:41.find out who is in which hospital so they can check off where their
:39:42. > :39:46.missing loved ones are. Why hasn't this been organised better? It has
:39:47. > :39:53.now. After the meeting yesterday of the recovery task force there is now
:39:54. > :39:58.from today on the ground a central operation precisely to answer all
:39:59. > :40:03.those perfectly reasonable questions that people have in these desperate
:40:04. > :40:09.circumstances. So there will be a combination of the local council,
:40:10. > :40:12.central government, the Department for Communities and Local Government
:40:13. > :40:16.command other departments as necessary, representatives of those
:40:17. > :40:19.departments will be on the ground immediately accessible to the
:40:20. > :40:24.residents so those questions can be answered. Can you respond to the
:40:25. > :40:28.speculation now, which is speculation and I understand this,
:40:29. > :40:34.but the great concerns about the cladding that has been used on the
:40:35. > :40:37.Grenfell Tower? Was this the cheaper flammable version that has been
:40:38. > :40:43.reported as less safe? Was that the one being used? That's precisely why
:40:44. > :40:49.we have moved very fast to set up a public inquiry. We want that to be
:40:50. > :40:53.set up as fast as possible and we will appoint a judge as chairman
:40:54. > :40:57.within days rather than weeks. We have said it will produce interim
:40:58. > :41:01.reports so people won't have to wait a long time, and I think very
:41:02. > :41:04.importantly the residents will have a direct voice. They will be
:41:05. > :41:09.consulted on the terms of reference of the public inquiry, and if they
:41:10. > :41:13.want legal representation at the public inquiry the government will
:41:14. > :41:16.pay for that. So the residents' voices will be heard very loud at
:41:17. > :41:20.the public inquiry and that is the body which will look at the cladding
:41:21. > :41:25.and all the other issues that have arisen. If that cladding is found to
:41:26. > :41:28.be of lesser quality, or the flammable one, will you commit to
:41:29. > :41:34.removing that from the other tower blocks in England where this is
:41:35. > :41:37.used? We will obviously look at the public inquiry recommendations, and
:41:38. > :41:40.if that's one of the recommendations then that is what will happen. I
:41:41. > :41:44.think it would be wrong to prejudge the public inquiry, that's the body
:41:45. > :41:49.that will look at all the evidence as fast as possible and then take
:41:50. > :41:54.the necessary action to make sure that nothing like this can happen
:41:55. > :41:59.again. Of course, at the same time, councils all over the country are
:42:00. > :42:02.inspecting buildings to check high-rise buildings, to check on
:42:03. > :42:06.their safety now, that has been happening over the last two days so
:42:07. > :42:08.that's very important, so that people all around the country living
:42:09. > :42:15.in similar buildings can be reassured. When will you be able to
:42:16. > :42:18.say to the people who live in the 4000 high-rise blocks around the UK
:42:19. > :42:23.that they are safe? You can't say that now, can you? That is what
:42:24. > :42:27.local councils have been doing all over the country for the past two
:42:28. > :42:33.days. They have been talking to people who actually live there and
:42:34. > :42:40.checking on the fire safety of there. So that reassurances already
:42:41. > :42:44.happening. In the longer term, obviously. In as short a long term
:42:45. > :42:49.as possible, it will be the public inquiry that is the place where all
:42:50. > :42:51.of the evidence can be gathered and therefore authoritative
:42:52. > :42:55.recommendations can be made as to what needs to happen now. You will
:42:56. > :42:59.be very aware of the protests yesterday and the anger that has
:43:00. > :43:05.built up amongst many in reaction to what has happened at Grenfell Tower.
:43:06. > :43:09.People at times like this want consolation, they won leadership,
:43:10. > :43:14.they want honesty and they want empathy. Theresa May, there is the
:43:15. > :43:20.accusation that she has shown none of this. Your reaction to that. I
:43:21. > :43:23.think that is unfair. The Prime Minister is distraught about what
:43:24. > :43:28.happened, as everyone in the country is. We are all desperately sad, we
:43:29. > :43:33.are all angry, but none of us are as angry as those directly affected. I
:43:34. > :43:37.absolutely get why they are angry and it is the responsibility of
:43:38. > :43:42.government at all levels to make sure that they get information so
:43:43. > :43:47.that their immediate questions can be answered. We are doing that. That
:43:48. > :43:52.there is money available so that their immediate needs can be met. We
:43:53. > :43:55.are doing that. And that we are taking the right action to make sure
:43:56. > :44:00.that this can never happen again. And we are doing that as well. I
:44:01. > :44:06.absolutely understand why there is so much anger out there. We all feel
:44:07. > :44:10.it. The government's responsibility is to take those actions I have just
:44:11. > :44:13.outlined, and that is what we are doing. The leader of the country's
:44:14. > :44:20.responsibility is to make sure people know and understand what they
:44:21. > :44:24.are going through, to see them, not for them to be harangued to be at
:44:25. > :44:28.the scene to visit emergency workers, victims, people in
:44:29. > :44:31.hospitals, two or three days after the event. On the first date the
:44:32. > :44:37.Prime Minister's focus quite rightly was on whether the emergency
:44:38. > :44:42.services had the appropriate resources so that they could do
:44:43. > :44:48.their immediate job. Then she did do precisely that. She visited some of
:44:49. > :44:55.the survivors in hospital and heard harrowing tales of what happened,
:44:56. > :45:00.and also she visited a wider group of residents to listen to their
:45:01. > :45:07.concerns in the local church. Her task now having done that is
:45:08. > :45:11.precisely to turn the concerns that she has heard into action and that
:45:12. > :45:16.is what is now happening with the recovery task force that has been
:45:17. > :45:21.set up. You are the first Secretary of State, probably the closest thing
:45:22. > :45:24.we can put in a box, for want of a better word, for Deputy Prime
:45:25. > :45:27.Minister. In your opinion do you think Theresa May has judged the
:45:28. > :45:33.mood of the nation well in the last few days? I think she has done
:45:34. > :45:41.everything that could have been asked, making sure that the
:45:42. > :45:44.emergency services are working well, listening to residents' concerns,
:45:45. > :45:48.and above all acting on those concerns as quickly as possible.
:45:49. > :45:53.That is what the Prime Minister should do and it is what she has
:45:54. > :45:58.done. You think she understands the mood of this nation? Yes, I think
:45:59. > :46:02.she does, as I say, as is as distraught as anyone, as all of us
:46:03. > :46:06.are, we all feel this sadness and recognise the anger and can see why
:46:07. > :46:11.people are that angry and the Prime Minister feels that as much as
:46:12. > :46:13.anyone. Damian Green, first Secretary of State, thank you for
:46:14. > :46:15.your time this morning. The Queen's Honours list has been
:46:16. > :46:17.released, and among those being recognised are a host
:46:18. > :46:21.of musicians, including MBEs for Ed Sheeran, Emili Sande
:46:22. > :46:29.and 1960s singer Sandie Shaw. Also honoured is classical double
:46:30. > :46:35.bassist, Chi-Chi Nwanoku, ... I knew I would get this wrong
:46:36. > :46:40.and I apologise because there is nothing more frustrating than
:46:41. > :46:45.getting somebody's name wrong. You co-founded the Orchestra
:46:46. > :46:47.of the Age of Enlightenment, which employs musicians from a wide
:46:48. > :46:59.range of ethnic backgrounds. Can I just correct you, I founded
:47:00. > :47:07.and orchestra made up of majority black and minority ethnic musicians,
:47:08. > :47:10.professionals and juniors. We should say, you already have an MBE, so
:47:11. > :47:15.this is the icing on the cake, and we have talked before about how it
:47:16. > :47:19.is important to thank people for the work that is done and that is how
:47:20. > :47:26.you see this. Yes, it is definitely an upgrade. I
:47:27. > :47:32.think I'm very proud and honoured to have received this. It is important
:47:33. > :47:39.to be able to receive thanks and give thanks, especially in the world
:47:40. > :47:42.of classical music. In the arts in general, but especially classical
:47:43. > :47:51.music, quite often seen as the least popular genre of music. The liner
:47:52. > :48:01.that I'm particularly pleased about is the fact that people are
:48:02. > :48:06.beginning to take real notice of the work that is being done, this genre
:48:07. > :48:12.of music is so underrepresented by people from all the communities.
:48:13. > :48:17.I've been a musician all my life and been on the stage all my life and
:48:18. > :48:21.the older I got the more I realised I was actually quite alone in a
:48:22. > :48:27.certain way. And why do you think that was? Many reasons, I had no
:48:28. > :48:34.role models, there aren't many role models, and I also think socio
:48:35. > :48:44.economic situations play a big part for people in the arts. We mustn't
:48:45. > :48:49.forget about that. We are often led towards other genres of music just
:48:50. > :48:58.because of the way we look. Jazz? Reggae? Yes, hip-hop, you name it.
:48:59. > :49:03.It is fantastic, music is wonderful. One thing I am really advocating is
:49:04. > :49:09.getting more musical education back into state schools, because that has
:49:10. > :49:15.a natural knock-on effect. Celebrating role models and
:49:16. > :49:21.encouraging teachers and people from the back room to take a leading
:49:22. > :49:24.positions. It is also that pipeline you touched on, about getting people
:49:25. > :49:27.involved in classical music at an early age and being able to filter
:49:28. > :49:32.them through different orchestras and being able to play at different
:49:33. > :49:37.levels. I know you have created a junior orchestra to do exactly that,
:49:38. > :49:41.how is it going? Fantastic, starting points are crucial. The juniors are
:49:42. > :49:48.outstanding, and one of our cellists made history by being the first
:49:49. > :49:54.black child to win BBC Young musician, so you will see quite a
:49:55. > :49:57.lot of him on the television. The power of the role model is
:49:58. > :50:01.unprecedented, he is a wonderful person, goes to a state school in
:50:02. > :50:05.Nottingham and plays football. You get them to go back to their schools
:50:06. > :50:09.to inspire the next generation as well. Exactly, children who see him
:50:10. > :50:14.and his family performing are dragging their parents to our
:50:15. > :50:17.concerts and other concerts. It goes back to you saying visible role
:50:18. > :50:25.models. Yes. Thank you for joining us. Nice to see you.
:50:26. > :50:29.It is 8:50am. What is happening with the weather, Helen?
:50:30. > :50:33.Hotter than it was yesterday and it is with us to stay for a few days.
:50:34. > :50:37.Not sunny everywhere, low cloud across northern England and western
:50:38. > :50:40.Scotland but you can see on the satellite picture it is melting away
:50:41. > :50:44.across northern England but across Scotland it is with us to stay for
:50:45. > :50:48.the rest of the day. We have that sunshine but also the weather front
:50:49. > :50:52.sitting across the North of Scotland, blown in by a brisk
:50:53. > :50:54.south-westerly wind so across the Highlands and Islands including the
:50:55. > :50:59.Northern Isles it will be damp but elsewhere a good spell of sunshine,
:51:00. > :51:04.and temperatures into the mid-20s for most of us, 23 and 24 around the
:51:05. > :51:08.coasts, low 20s in the southern and eastern areas, high 20s, could be
:51:09. > :51:13.the warmest day of the year so far, if not today and definitely
:51:14. > :51:17.tomorrow. It is worth noting the sun index is very high, which is
:51:18. > :51:20.unusual, even in the height of summer in the UK. Something to be
:51:21. > :51:24.warned of if you are out and about, high levels of pollen for those who
:51:25. > :51:28.suffer. Repeat performance for tomorrow and the weather front
:51:29. > :51:31.across the North west of Scotland, and fortunately it stays most of the
:51:32. > :51:37.weekend. If anything temperatures will be higher still tomorrow, to be
:51:38. > :51:40.pushing towards 32 Celsius, the high 80s Fahrenheit, and it continues
:51:41. > :51:45.into Monday as well. Thank you, Helen.
:51:46. > :51:48.With hit after hit to their name it's no wonder they're known
:51:49. > :51:52.This year Motown legends The Jacksons are marking their 50th
:51:53. > :52:03.We are both quite excited. We are very excited.
:52:04. > :52:05.Jackie and Marlon will join us on the sofa.
:52:06. > :52:07.But first lets take a look back at their astonishing career.
:52:08. > :52:12.Good morning. We love to listen to this, we have been boogying on the
:52:13. > :52:18.sofa all morning every time we hear this. Shall we have a listen? Are
:52:19. > :52:25.you going to dance? Trust me, you don't want to see it.
:52:26. > :52:34.# ABC # Easy as one, two, three
:52:35. > :52:41.# And I do know that I want you # Shake your body #
:52:42. > :52:53.You should have seen some of the dancing in here. Good morning, Tito,
:52:54. > :53:02.Jackie and Marlon. Back in the UK, the tour begins, tell us about being
:53:03. > :53:07.back in the UK. We love being in the UK, we will be at Scarborough
:53:08. > :53:21.tonight and tomorrow Blenheim Palace. That's my brother, Jackie.
:53:22. > :53:29.July the 2nd at the O2. How does this dynamic work? Who is the
:53:30. > :53:33.oldest? Take a guess! You are the oldest? It seems like these guys
:53:34. > :53:40.correct you, or make sure... I just let them feel good. You are the
:53:41. > :53:45.chilled ones? We are brothers so we just speak what we have to say, we
:53:46. > :53:50.know each other, how we like doing things, so it's pretty easy for us.
:53:51. > :53:57.Does it all slot back into place? That is what it does. You are
:53:58. > :54:00.enjoying the rehearsals? Everything. We are lucky because we had a great
:54:01. > :54:05.foundation and everything falls into place. Quito, when we look at those
:54:06. > :54:08.pictures, the incredible career, people will know many songs, if not
:54:09. > :54:18.all, do you still get the same excitement? -- Tito. Yes, it's been
:54:19. > :54:23.a fun ride hanging out with these guys, they are fun guys. We have to
:54:24. > :54:29.get away from each other once in awhile to get a breather. What is
:54:30. > :54:32.your downtime? My downtime is spending life with my wife and
:54:33. > :54:36.family and grandkids and doing things I like to do and they like to
:54:37. > :54:42.do. Are they musical? Some of the more musical. If that is the route
:54:43. > :54:45.they want to go you help them but if not you have them do whatever they
:54:46. > :54:49.want to do, help them become the best at whatever they do. That is a
:54:50. > :54:55.good motto, to be the best at whatever you do. Being good human
:54:56. > :54:57.beings, that is most important. 50 years of performing, Jackie, there
:54:58. > :55:04.must be lots of highlights but give us a couple of them. Performing for
:55:05. > :55:08.the Queen here. That was a big highlight. We did it twice. That was
:55:09. > :55:21.one of my biggest performances, I would say. Last year we were at
:55:22. > :55:24.Bestival, that was great. Considering how huge your repertoire
:55:25. > :55:32.is, when you do the tours, how do you pick? We don't pick. The fans
:55:33. > :55:37.pick. We ask them to send in the songs they want to hear and we make
:55:38. > :55:46.the show. You must sometimes think I don't want to do the old favourites,
:55:47. > :55:51.not the big hits, I want to do some of the B sides. If we didn't do
:55:52. > :56:01.blame it on the boogie... You are absolutely right. You have a new
:56:02. > :56:08.solo record coming, Tito. The last Jackson to record. It is a tribute
:56:09. > :56:17.album. I didn't want to be the only one not to record. Is that the
:56:18. > :56:25.motivation? My album is out today. Tito Time. What is the sound? The
:56:26. > :56:35.sound is Tito Time. Just Lyn Brown, mind first single in the UK. Coming
:56:36. > :56:40.up to the anniversary of Michael's death, how do you mark that? What do
:56:41. > :56:46.you do as a family? We have a book that is coming out of over the 50
:56:47. > :56:51.years, pictures of the brothers, various countries, archives, things
:56:52. > :56:54.that have never been seen before. We are looking forward to that and
:56:55. > :57:01.putting that out there for the fans to pick up. I've been doing this
:57:02. > :57:07.since I was nine or ten years old. It is like second nature to us. It
:57:08. > :57:11.just falls into place. We get some down time and I guess you just want
:57:12. > :57:17.to chill out and be by yourself and hang loose. Can I ask who chooses
:57:18. > :57:21.your outfits? When you are younger and you see the older stuff there is
:57:22. > :57:27.a theme that you are all connected in some way. What happens now when
:57:28. > :57:33.you are on stage? I just say I'm going to wear this tonight, cool.
:57:34. > :57:43.You go out there and give 100%. He looks good today. He looks really
:57:44. > :57:50.dapper. He's saying he looks like your attorney! You are a bit more
:57:51. > :57:55.casual in sportswear, so you are the fit casual one. And you are just
:57:56. > :58:01.chilled. Just relaxed. What can people expect at the concerts? Your
:58:02. > :58:06.favourites, their favourites. Doing all of our hit songs. It is hard to
:58:07. > :58:08.sing all of those hit songs in one two-hour show, sometimes we just
:58:09. > :58:14.sing the verse and go to the chorus and go to the next song but we try
:58:15. > :58:17.and give the fans as many songs. So there is a medley so you can tick
:58:18. > :58:23.them off the list. Two hours, there is a lot to get through. Yes. We
:58:24. > :58:29.have Ed Jackson party and have fun. Do you wear your sunglasses all the
:58:30. > :58:35.time? We are feeling decidedly uncool. I just got into the UK
:58:36. > :58:43.yesterday. Sobered the jet lag, came from Morocco. We had to put on our
:58:44. > :58:47.sunglasses. We are grateful for you for bringing the sun. You've
:58:48. > :58:48.obviously been listening to Helen with the forecast. Thank you for
:58:49. > :58:55.joining us. The UK leg of the 50th anniversary
:58:56. > :59:02.tour takes place in June and July including Blenheim Palace and
:59:03. > :59:03.Greenwich. This is where we say goodbye to
