:00:12. > :00:18.We start this lunchtime with the hunt for a gang behind
:00:19. > :00:27.Using a sledgehammer, the men smashed their way
:00:28. > :00:29.through Joya-Lukkas jewellers in Forest Gate in east London
:00:30. > :00:31.in a raid detectives have described as audacious.
:00:32. > :00:36.Unsophisticated, but effective, three men crawl into the East London
:00:37. > :00:42.jewellers and leave with ?1.8 million worth of jewellery.
:00:43. > :00:44.To get inside, they've smashed a hole big
:00:45. > :00:47.enough using a sledgehammer and a crowbar in the early hours of the
:00:48. > :00:51.It is a cruder, less lucrative version of the ?40 million
:00:52. > :01:05.This is an unusual method to conduct a burglary, and they may have been
:01:06. > :01:09.inspired by the incident at Hatton Garden that led them to use this
:01:10. > :01:12.option to gain entrance to the property.
:01:13. > :01:14.The jewellers specialise in Asian gold
:01:15. > :01:19.and diamond necklaces, pendants and earrings.
:01:20. > :01:23.It was unusual because of the value of the property stolen and also
:01:24. > :01:26.because they were underneath the scope of the alarm system and also
:01:27. > :01:30.because they have smashed this large hole through the real wall of the
:01:31. > :01:34.premises. And so they crawled along the floor and managed to evade it?
:01:35. > :01:37.Yes, it is quite clear by the CCTV that they have not been captured by
:01:38. > :01:38.the alarm system because they have crawled underneath.
:01:39. > :01:45.Police are now looking for eight suspects - three who went
:01:46. > :01:48.inside and five who acted as lookouts in the ten hours running up
:01:49. > :01:54.As you might have heard, there are big warnings from Rail
:01:55. > :01:56.companies to anyone travelling over the bank holiday weekend.
:01:57. > :01:59.Major engineering works are taking place effecting several services
:02:00. > :02:04.Sarah Harris has more from London Bridge.
:02:05. > :02:08.So this is the message if you're planning to take the train anywhere
:02:09. > :02:11.in London over this bank holiday weekend - plan ahead.
:02:12. > :02:14.And with me for more of those details is Simon from
:02:15. > :02:31.So there's a lot of work to do, isn't there?
:02:32. > :02:33.Just take us through some of it, here particularly
:02:34. > :02:41.Yeah, so here at London Bridge, we have the next stage
:02:42. > :02:44.of the Thames Link programme, where we are realigning some of the tracks
:02:45. > :02:46.outside the station, bringing new platform six
:02:47. > :02:49.into operation for Charing Cross passengers, which will be open
:02:50. > :02:52.on Sunday the 3rd of September, so we are here for eight days.
:02:53. > :02:54.There will be an impact on train services,
:02:55. > :02:59.for which we apologise in advance to customers.
:03:00. > :03:07.Euston is closed, there is disruption all over London.
:03:08. > :03:09.Why this particular weekend for all of the...
:03:10. > :03:12.I mean, it is obvious for the bank holiday people coming here, but why
:03:13. > :03:24.Why did you decide to have different works going on in the same
:03:25. > :03:27.Clearly, August bank holiday is a time when
:03:28. > :03:28.there is lower travel on the network.
:03:29. > :03:31.A lot of people are away on their holidays, and therefore we
:03:32. > :03:34.often choose these bank holiday weekends to do our major engineering
:03:35. > :03:37.We recognise there will be some disruption of our customers.
:03:38. > :03:40.It is a lower number of people that are
:03:41. > :03:42.impacted, so hence the amount of work that we're doing over this
:03:43. > :03:45.weekend, not just here at London Bridge but also at Euston, at
:03:46. > :03:47.Waterloo and other major centres around the country.
:03:48. > :03:52.So the main thing is it is not impossible to travel
:03:53. > :03:54.across London by train this bank holiday weekend, but definitely
:03:55. > :04:00.Police say a woman who made a string of false sexual assault allegations
:04:01. > :04:02.cost Scotland Yard more than ?250,000.
:04:03. > :04:03.25-year-old Jemma Beale from Bedfont has been jailed

:04:48. > :04:49.on 'Social Integration' says the anti-immigrant rhetoric of last
:04:50. > :04:51.year's Brexit campaign is making it harder for new arrivals.
:04:52. > :04:53.He's renewing calls for the government to make

:05:13. > :05:15.there are claims it left no positive legacy for disabled people.
:05:16. > :05:17.Research from the disability charity Scope shows despite the success
:05:18. > :05:19.of the games themselves, there's been little change

:06:21. > :06:22.theatre for children with profound learning disabilities.
:06:23. > :06:23.This is their first for deaf-blind children.
:06:24. > :06:26.Well, if we can't relate to them by those
:06:27. > :06:35.There's a sense of movement that they have
:06:36. > :06:37.come a kinaesthetic sense, so we often use movable seating.
:06:38. > :06:39.And the cast of Kubla Khan aim to create a
:06:40. > :06:42.stately pleasure dome by interacting with the children using water, sand,
:06:43. > :06:46.I mean, it's just an honour to kind of
:06:47. > :06:49.do it and get to have this communication with these kids,

:06:56. > :07:00.People don't just hear with their ears.
