:01:49. > :01:54.access by gangs who don't want to get caught carrying them. The
:01:55. > :01:57.searchers are yielding extraordinary if terrifying results. If you are in

:03:21. > :03:25.people wounded, 27 of them fatally. Tonight a sign from the Met
:03:26. > :03:30.commissioner that we could see this scheme expand. This is people who
:03:31. > :03:38.are saying, we know that some people are starting nice and we be they may
:03:39. > :03:42.be near to my home. My community. I don't want them to be able to go and
:03:43. > :03:46.pick one up and attack somebody I love. I am going to go out there in
:03:47. > :03:49.a coordinated way and find them. Normally police asked us for our
:03:50. > :03:51.eyes and ears in the fight against crime, now they are asking for that

:04:19. > :04:22.confidence, she said the police were engendering an people in London. She
:04:23. > :04:25.said there is a confidence gap with some sections of society,
:04:26. > :04:29.particularly young people about black people, not a huge gap she
:04:30. > :04:36.said, but bigger than she wants. Clearly that is one of her budget
:04:37. > :04:40.priorities. Not least because in just over a month we have had the
:04:41. > :04:43.deaths of two young black men who have had contact with police, both
:04:44. > :04:49.of those deaths now subject to independent enquiries. She wanted to
:04:50. > :04:56.in her interview, she wanted to make a link between the sense of
:04:57. > :05:01.perceptions are black people being disproportionally responsible, or
:05:02. > :05:04.having contact with police, to a disproportionate degree, they are
:05:05. > :05:10.also disproportionally the victims of crime, and police at every level
:05:11. > :05:14.were concerned about that. We have a problem with the Bali climate knife
:05:15. > :05:17.crime. That's usually disproportionally affects people
:05:18. > :05:20.from minority ethnic communities. It usually affects young black men,
:05:21. > :05:25.they are utterly disproportionally the victims. That makes me angry. It
:05:26. > :05:31.means my office is angry. They want to stop knife crime. Every week I
:05:32. > :05:37.hear a story of one of my office is saving the life of a young black

:20:59. > :21:03.tropical paradise. It is home to some of the world's smallest, rarest
:21:04. > :21:07.and most endangered plants. Plants which might save your life and
:21:08. > :21:14.plants which might take it. If you are an insect. This is... This is
:21:15. > :21:18.the Madagascan periwinkle. I get asked a lot, what is the point of
:21:19. > :21:24.conservation? Why should we save plants? This is a great example.
:21:25. > :21:28.This plant treats childhood leukaemia. They have taken compounds
:21:29. > :21:33.are planned and used it within the treatment. This is a really exciting
:21:34. > :21:37.plaid and is what Kew Gardens is all about. This was thought to be
:21:38. > :21:41.extinct in the wild 40 years ago, and amazingly someone filed a bit of
:21:42. > :21:47.it and that was sent here and we were able to grow that planned on.
:21:48. > :21:54.How long did it take to get from the sample to actually being able to get
:21:55. > :21:57.the Cedar Grove? 30-40 years. That is an amazing success story. We are
:21:58. > :22:04.still discovering new species on the time. If you don't discover them and
:22:05. > :22:07.name them, we could just lose those. We could lose those plants. They
:22:08. > :22:12.have to be named to be saved. Then we can serve them and they can
:22:13. > :22:16.potentially bank them into the millennium seed bank so they are
:22:17. > :22:21.banked for life. There are more than 70 plans here that are extinct in
:22:22. > :22:26.the wild. Horticultural risk a great pains to preserve them and give them
:22:27. > :22:30.optimal conditions. The Public gardens at Kew Gardens show you the
:22:31. > :22:33.finished product. It is behind the scenes when a pioneering work takes
:22:34. > :22:37.place. The size best this weekend will open the doors to small groups,
:22:38. > :22:41.so you can share in the discovery, too.
:22:42. > :22:47.Here to tell us more about the size Festival is Doctor Tim Partridge,
:22:48. > :22:52.head of identification at Kew Gardens. Great job title. In my
:22:53. > :22:58.department, we get all the new plants from around the world. We
:22:59. > :23:06.give them names way there are new and unknown to science. Here any
:23:07. > :23:13.carnivorous room, with these lethal looking plants. These are members of
:23:14. > :23:17.the genus McKenzies, and a picture plans, insect eaters, so flies get
:23:18. > :23:23.attracted Angolan side. This is a new species that we only described
:23:24. > :23:27.last year from... A hell new species? Yes, it has been growing in
:23:28. > :23:32.Indonesia for many years. We thought it was one of these big ones, but
:23:33. > :23:36.when we got it, we drew it up in our amazing nursery and it only stayed
:23:37. > :23:41.small. It is not the same. These are some of the things that people can
:23:42. > :23:47.discover this weekend. What else can they do? Tours in a nursery, see
:23:48. > :23:51.behind the scenes, 7 million specimens, cyclist coming out of the
:23:52. > :23:56.lab, pressing PNA and cloning cauliflowers, and have a whole range
:23:57. > :24:00.of things for kids and adults. Goodes page of talking to us. Not
:24:01. > :24:07.very much time, three days to get all that in. It opens on Friday
:24:08. > :24:09.until Sunday. A botanical treasure trove.
:24:10. > :24:21.There will be some showers and sunshine, I suppose the plans will
:24:22. > :24:26.get a watering today. But those ones are inside. And try to put some
:24:27. > :24:30.positive spin on this, does I think in many ways it is the sort of day
:24:31. > :24:35.when we want to forget. Particularly if you are on holiday at the moment.
:24:36. > :24:41.This is the theme in some people's Gardens. A better big can stay
:24:42. > :24:46.indoors. Here was how it looked in central London. Grey and miserable
:24:47. > :24:50.for sure. The radar picture just confirms that. This big lump of rain
:24:51. > :24:54.pushing its way from the south, really quite heavy burst my heaviest
:24:55. > :24:57.rain was found to the south of London. As they go through this
:24:58. > :25:02.evening and at night, there is some more wet weather on the way. Spots
:25:03. > :25:06.to the south and east of London, part of Surrey and Kent and Essex
:25:07. > :25:11.will probably see the brunt of the heavy rain. Even here, by tomorrow,
:25:12. > :25:17.most of that will ease away. It will be a blustery night in parameters
:25:18. > :25:22.around 14 all 15 Celsius. Tomorrow, dryer, not completely dry, could be
:25:23. > :25:25.some showers but with the south-westerly winds, the showers
:25:26. > :25:29.should blow through fairly quickly and you should return to sunny
:25:30. > :25:35.spells. Not a bad looking day, but when we compare it to today. Tebbit
:25:36. > :25:40.is around 21-22dC. It will feel relatively warm. If you are about
:25:41. > :25:44.tomorrow evening, not too bad, showers should fade and we will see
:25:45. > :25:48.some sunshine to enter the day. Low-pressure has been responsible
:25:49. > :25:52.for this unsettled weather. The locomotive doctor the north-east and
:25:53. > :25:57.B star to look up to the Atlantic and this bulge of high-pressure

:26:03. > :26:06.more in a way of dry weather, fewer showers and more sunshine, the wind
:26:07. > :26:15.will be lighter as well. Not a bad day. Maximum temperatures up to 22
:26:16. > :26:21.Celsius. The all-important weekend, sunny spells is the main headline. A
:26:22. > :26:25.view showers, might be worth taking a brolly. Saturday is largely dry
:26:26. > :26:30.the spells of sunshine, the odd shower, lighter winds and
:26:31. > :26:36.temperatures around 21-22dC. Sunday, most of us should be dry. A view
:26:37. > :26:41.spells of sunshine with light when feeling very pleasant. No heat wave
:26:42. > :26:45.but Tebbit is up into the low 20s. To summarise, some showers over the
:26:46. > :26:46.next few days, but generally it will be dryer, certainly dryer than it
:26:47. > :26:51.was today. I appreciate your optimism, Ben.
