:00:11. > :00:16.A black east Londoner claims he s being stopped dozens of timds

:00:17. > :00:20.a month simply because of the colour of his skin.

:00:21. > :00:23.But it doesn't happen on thd street - it happens on the River Thames.

:00:24. > :00:27.He says police keep stopping him on his boat, and he's fed up of it.

:00:28. > :00:32.He's even taken mobile phond footage of an officer boarding his boat

:00:33. > :00:38.The Met has teams of officers patrolling the Thames.

:00:39. > :00:42.But at the moment their powers are limited.

:00:43. > :00:46.Unless they suspect terrorism, they can't stop and search boats.

:00:47. > :00:49.And one man claims they've been going too far, at least as far

:00:50. > :00:57.I was like, "Look, there's kids there!"

:00:58. > :01:01.Michael Sylvester from Plaistow says he was stopped and his boat boarded

:01:02. > :01:07.without consent when he was on a day trip with friends and children.

:01:08. > :01:12.The reason they stop us is because they say "terrorhsm"

:01:13. > :01:18.Two police boats can be seen either side of Mr Sylvester's boat and he's

:01:19. > :01:23.not happy when an officer boards and asks what they're doing.

:01:24. > :01:25.I'd like to know where you've been...

:01:26. > :01:30.If you can answer the questhons about who is on the boat...

:01:31. > :01:36.He got his rope, chucked it on and said he's getting

:01:37. > :01:41.We fit the description of tdrrorists because obviously they must believe

:01:42. > :01:48.If I was a white guy behind this wheel here,

:01:49. > :01:53.You haven't been given permission to get on my boat.

:01:54. > :01:55.Mr Sylvester says, before it was boarded, the children

:01:56. > :02:01.He claims he's being stopped repeatedly.

:02:02. > :02:05.I would say 30, 40 times in the past month.

:02:06. > :02:08.This happens to me every tile I come on this water.

:02:09. > :02:10.The Met has a very different view of this incident,

:02:11. > :02:15.saying patrols are routine `nd it was one of four stops that day.

:02:16. > :02:18.The Met says the officer thought he had consent and police

:02:19. > :02:21.were concerned about people not wearing life jackets.

:02:22. > :02:27.A community adviser on stop and search says the event does

:02:28. > :02:34.For me, looking at the clip, my concern again is the polhcy

:02:35. > :02:39.No one really understands what the police rights

:02:40. > :02:44.The Terrorism Act gives polhce the right to stop and search

:02:45. > :02:47.on the river if an officer suspects a craft is being used

:02:48. > :02:52.It is now being recommended the Met is given more powers

:02:53. > :02:58.The police can stop and search somebody they see on the ro`d,

:02:59. > :03:01.in a car, but if it a boat on the river, they simply don't

:03:02. > :03:05.have the powers the moment to stop them and check that everythhng is OK

:03:06. > :03:12.A change may come as early as next year.

:03:13. > :03:15.Mr Sylvester, though, is not happy with the way

:03:16. > :03:22.he is being treated under the existing law.

:03:23. > :03:24.Tributes have been paid to an Italian student

:03:25. > :03:29.who was killed as he cycled through Knightsbridge on Monday

:03:30. > :03:32.21-year-old Filippo Corsini, who's reported to be an Italian

:03:33. > :03:36.prince from one of the oldest and well-known families

:03:37. > :03:39.in Florence, was studying at Regent's University London.

:03:40. > :03:49.Knocking down the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Stadium and starting again

:03:50. > :03:51.has been suggested as a possible solution to the problem of

:03:52. > :03:55.It comes a day after Mayor Sadiq Khan ordered

:03:56. > :03:58.an investigation into the increasing bill, which the taxpayer

:03:59. > :04:06.Back then, to many, it felt like London's

:04:07. > :04:10.showpiece Olympic Stadium was worth every penny.

:04:11. > :04:13.Four years on, there have bden problems with access to the stadium,

:04:14. > :04:17.crowd disturbances and now the revelation of further

:04:18. > :04:22.It cost ?272 million to convert the Olympic Stadium

:04:23. > :04:28.Just ?15 million came from the Premier League club,

:04:29. > :04:32.the rest from the public purse, and a further ?51 million whll now

:04:33. > :04:39.I've ordered an investigation to find out what's gone

:04:40. > :04:49.But also to find financial solutions going forward.

:04:50. > :04:52.Every summer, we're going to spend millions and millions of potnds

:04:53. > :04:55.in relation to retractable seating and the other issues,

:04:56. > :04:58.and the obvious question is, why weren't these things known before?

:04:59. > :05:02.Moving those seats was supposed to cost ?300,000 a year.

:05:03. > :05:06.Now it's emerged the cost will be ?8 million a year.

:05:07. > :05:09.That's because they aren't all that retractable,

:05:10. > :05:13.taking 15 days to remove for athletics events or concerts

:05:14. > :05:19.Some believe it can never bd a truly multipurpose stadiul.

:05:20. > :05:22.I would demolish it, knock it down to the surfacd

:05:23. > :05:26.and rebuild something that's suitable for its purpose,

:05:27. > :05:29.and I know that sounds bizarre, when you're talking about htndreds

:05:30. > :05:35.Somebody bold enough has got to say, we've got to stop just shovdlling

:05:36. > :05:39.money into this failure, into this white elephant.

:05:40. > :05:41.You can't blame West Ham football club for taking

:05:42. > :05:47.The blame solely lies with the people who signed

:05:48. > :05:49.off on the contract, so that's why this

:05:50. > :05:54.They need to properly scruthnise who signed off on that deal and make

:05:55. > :05:57.sure a deal like that doesn't happen again.

:05:58. > :06:00.Hopes of recouping some of the costs lay with finding

:06:01. > :06:04.It's emerged negotiations whth one have just broken down.

:06:05. > :06:07.Right now, this doesn't look like the stadium

:06:08. > :06:24.Today, a suggestion to knock the stadium down.

:06:25. > :06:32.Yes, exactly right. Last night, we heard that the Mayor of London Sadiq

:06:33. > :06:36.Khan and ordered an investigation into spiralling costs, and we heard

:06:37. > :06:39.there Andrew Boff saying thd stadium should be knocked down. We have had

:06:40. > :06:46.become and sport committee, the chairman, Damian Collins, s`ying the

:06:47. > :06:49.costs are astronomical, so pressure is mounting. It's no surprise

:06:50. > :06:54.politically that Sadiq Khan is pinning the blame, and incoling

:06:55. > :06:58.Labour pinning the blame Boris Johnson, but it's also a sensitive

:06:59. > :07:03.time for West. They are havhng problems with the crowds getting

:07:04. > :07:07.into the stadium and crowd disturbances. It's being reported

:07:08. > :07:12.tonight that next season West Ham may have to play some of thdir games

:07:13. > :07:15.away from home. Most people tonight will be hoping that this

:07:16. > :07:17.investigation by Sadiq Khan will get to the bottom of this matter and not

:07:18. > :07:21.cost the taxpayer any more loney. It's exactly 350 years and two

:07:22. > :07:24.months since that fateful night in the City of London

:07:25. > :07:28.which was to change it forever. It's when the Great Fire

:07:29. > :07:30.of London started and, although we know a lot

:07:31. > :07:32.about what the streets lookdd like in the years after the fire,

:07:33. > :07:35.what was it like before? The Great Fire of London was

:07:36. > :07:39.merciless, incinerating thotsands But what did the city look like

:07:40. > :07:47.before the disaster? Student at Leicester's De Montfort

:07:48. > :07:49.University came up with this virtual fly through,

:07:50. > :07:52.using historic maps from the British Library, drafted

:07:53. > :07:58.while the embers still burndd. We start travelling down

:07:59. > :08:01.Pudding Lane, where the fird started You can imagine the

:08:02. > :08:08.fire starting here. And then due to the direction

:08:09. > :08:13.of the wind, stretching west St Margaret's Church, just

:08:14. > :08:23.on the corner of Fish Hill Street - of course, that isn't there -

:08:24. > :08:26.and this is roughly where the monument is now for the Great

:08:27. > :08:30.Fire. One of the main figures

:08:31. > :08:34.in the rebuilding of London is Robert Hooke, the guy responsible

:08:35. > :08:42.for the design of the monumdnt. Next, Fish Hill Street,

:08:43. > :08:45.close to the site of Billingsgate, for centuries the home

:08:46. > :08:48.of the capital's fish market, bordering what is now

:08:49. > :08:52.Lower Thames Street. Running parallel to the rivdr,

:08:53. > :08:54.it's always been And people from the City

:08:55. > :09:06.having a lunchtime drink. This is interesting here,

:09:07. > :09:16.Billingsgate and the dock in Billingsgate, because of course

:09:17. > :09:18.that no longer exists. That's the wonderful

:09:19. > :09:20.thing about old maps, this helps you visualise wh`t it

:09:21. > :09:22.must have been like. This instant draft of a gutted

:09:23. > :09:25.London was soon after used as the basis of this

:09:26. > :09:27.cutting-edge 17th-century m`p. A vast swathe of white

:09:28. > :09:29.from the Tower of London to the Strand, illustrating

:09:30. > :09:36.the nothingness of a destroxed city. Today, though, we can virtu`lly fly

:09:37. > :09:44.through the streets. That's it for now from me, but let's

:09:45. > :09:55.find out what the weather's up to. Harry Potter star Emma Watson has

:09:56. > :10:00.secretly been leaving books on the London Underground today, so people

:10:01. > :10:05.can find them and give thosd a read. You can read all about it on the

:10:06. > :10:10.website. It's a good story. But now the weather with Phil. I know it's

:10:11. > :10:14.got chilly, but I quite likd it My favourite time of the ye`r as

:10:15. > :10:20.well. Just enough children to start turning believes. This was captured

:10:21. > :10:30.by one of our weather watchdrs. Of course, it's talking. The vhnes give

:10:31. > :10:34.it away. But we weren't alone in Dorking. Many people enjoy the

:10:35. > :10:38.sunshine. You had to be quite a long way north to see cloud. This will be

:10:39. > :10:45.one of the cooler nights we have seen of this season. Yes, -3 also in

:10:46. > :10:50.the countryside and not much better than two or three in town. Tomorrow

:10:51. > :10:55.morning, cold and frosty at the bus stop, on the platform, VQ mtte. It

:10:56. > :11:00.will be a bit more cloudy l`ter in the afternoon perhaps, but ht will

:11:01. > :11:02.not stop the temperature is coming up to around 12. Mick Miller has the

:11:03. > :11:14.national picture. The weather may have turned colder

:11:15. > :11:17.but for many of us today there was abundant sunshine. This is from the

:11:18. > :11:23.end of the day from Oxfordshire Cold and clear by day and clear and

:11:24. > :11:28.even colder overnight. That is the recipe at this time of year.

:11:29. > :11:34.Widespread ground frost setting in. Parts of East Anglia already below

:11:35. > :11:38.freezing. In western Scotland, temperatures may stabilise. It could

:11:39. > :11:41.even go up a feud degrees with thickening cloud, outbreaks of rain

:11:42. > :11:46.and a freshening breeze. By the end of the night, the coldest weather

:11:47. > :11:51.will be across southern parts of the UK, with some of us below freezing,

:11:52. > :11:55.scraping ice off the car, and patchy fog. This is breakfast, such a

:11:56. > :11:59.different start for Scotland and Northern Ireland. Outbreaks of rain

:12:00. > :12:04.moving in, most persistent into western Scotland. Perhaps a bit more

:12:05. > :12:05.cloud feeding into the far west
