your weather for the week ahead. A community worker from Luton

:00:47.:00:47.

is demanding an apology from the police after being arrested

:00:48.:00:50.

for terrorism offences. The man was stopped at Luton Airport

:00:51.:00:52.

with his wife and five children before boarding a flight to Turkey

to go on holiday He was later released without

in the community. They said, "We're arresting

you under suspicion of..." A person that's never

:01:08.:01:09.

been in custody and never been arrested,

:01:10.:01:13.

I was confused, angry. At the same time as well,

:01:14.:01:15.

I was concerned about my children. This father of five,

:01:16.:01:18.

who doesn't want to be identified, was arrested at Luton Airport

:01:19.:01:20.

on his way to Turkey. He told me the reason police

:01:21.:01:24.

gave him was that he appeared But he was in fact

:01:25.:01:27.

flying back to Gatwick. They could actually have rung

:01:28.:01:33.

the airline and found out, When I look back, the only thing

:01:34.:01:41.

I can say is that the reason they done what they have to do to me

:01:42.:01:51.

and my family is because of my I was discriminated

:01:52.:01:55.

because of those two things. Counterterrorism police

:01:56.:01:58.

have a job to do. Sometimes, they're

:01:59.:02:03.

going to get it wrong. Well, they need to do their homework

:02:04.:02:07.

before they do something, then. The arrest led to the family's

:02:08.:02:13.

house being searched. They've gone through our

:02:14.:02:16.

personal belongings. My children do not feel safe

:02:17.:02:24.

in that house any more. Akbar Dad Khan from community group

:02:25.:02:27.

Building Bridges By and large, the police do go

:02:28.:02:30.

about their business But now and again, things of this

:02:31.:02:36.

nature do happen and I think the police should be big enough

:02:37.:02:47.

to say "On this occasion, The Metropolitan Police have

:02:48.:02:52.

acknowledged that the arrests were made and say no further

:02:53.:02:59.

action is being taken. They also said a complaint made

:03:00.:03:01.

by the family has now been referred to Counterterrorism Command's

:03:02.:03:07.

professional standards team. Well, earlier I spoke to a terrorism

:03:08.:03:15.

expert about this case. I asked Professor Anthony Glees,

:03:16.:03:19.

from the University of Buckingham, if police were justified

:03:20.:03:21.

in targeting an innocent man. Well, he has done nothing wrong,

:03:22.:03:27.

but the police needed to find out He presented as a potential

:03:28.:03:30.

for fighting in the so-called That was how he presented,

:03:31.:03:37.

given the fact that he had The fact that he had his family

:03:38.:03:46.

with him makes no difference. We know people with families have

:03:47.:03:54.

also gone on to do this. This must be a classic case

:03:55.:03:57.

of racial profiling. If they were a white British family,

:03:58.:03:59.

would they have been stopped? I think they would have been

:04:00.:04:02.

stopped, absolutely. As we know, we've had white British

:04:03.:04:04.

people go off to fight We've had black British people go

:04:05.:04:07.

off to fight for them. No, it's not really

:04:08.:04:11.

about racial profiling. But this man lost his holiday.

:04:12.:04:13.

His home was searched. He says it may cause

:04:14.:04:16.

damage to his reputation. Surely he deserves some sort

:04:17.:04:19.

of apology or compensation for that Well, I absolutely understand

:04:20.:04:21.

that this man, his wife and above all his children will have

:04:22.:04:29.

been very distressed by this But we have got to get

:04:30.:04:32.

real in this country. A one-way ticket to Turkey

with your family is suspicious. Nobody who reads the newspapers,

:04:38.:04:42.

watches the television or listens to the radio can be in any doubt

:04:43.:04:44.

about that at all. The wreckage of a helicopter

:04:45.:04:56.

which crashed, killing five people from Milton Keynes, has been removed

from the mountainside in Wales. Kevin, Ruth, Donald,

Sharon and Barry Burke were all adult members

:05:02.:05:03.

of the same family. It's thought that Kevin

:05:04.:05:05.

Burke was the pilot. The wreckage will undergo

:05:06.:05:07.

a detailed examination by the Air Accident Investigation

:05:08.:05:09.

Board. The number of incidents involving

:05:10.:05:13.

drones in our region has rocketed In 2014, police dealt

:05:14.:05:16.

with 32 complaints - The Department for Transport

:05:17.:05:21.

is considering several measures including mandatory registration

:05:22.:05:27.

and tougher penalties. . Who take to the sky at this

least 20 degrees either side of their line of sight and ahead and to

:06:06.:06:10.

the side all the time. But it is not just light aircraft at risk. Last

:06:11.:06:14.

month, the drones strayed into restricted airspace around Luton

:06:15.:06:17.

Airport while filming a fire at a local supermarket. Then last week,

:06:18.:06:22.

it was revealed that an East Anglian air ambulance helicopter came within

:06:23.:06:25.

just half a second of midair crash with a drone. Then of course, there

:06:26.:06:30.

are the risks to privacy, with reports of people using drones to

:06:31.:06:33.

spy on their neighbours. They have even been used to help lead thieves.

:06:34.:06:43.

This is the Spencer family Church in Great Britain, where a drone was

:06:44.:06:45.

spotted filming the roof the day before it was stripped of its lead.

:06:46.:06:48.

All of these incidents have increased calls for new legislation.

:06:49.:06:52.

It is partly that the law is behind the technology. In America, they

:06:53.:06:56.

have gone down the road of insisting that these things are registered and

:06:57.:07:00.

chipped so that if they do crash and cause injury, at least they have an

:07:01.:07:06.

address to go back to. In the UK, that is not the case. It is

safety measures which this centre hopes will make the sky is a safer

place. Next tonight, there

:07:17.:07:17.

are fears that a move could have wide implications

:07:18.:07:19.

for this region's The American firm's products

:07:20.:07:22.

use microchips designed Our reporter Waseem

:07:23.:07:25.

Mirza can explain. Well, Clare, there are two companies

:07:26.:07:29.

in the region that supply Microchips are basically tiny bits

:07:30.:07:35.

of computer circuitry and they power pretty much

:07:36.:07:41.

everything electronic - from your smartphone and TV right

:07:42.:07:43.

down to your street lights. But today, Hertfordshire-based

:07:44.:07:46.

Imagination Technologies announced that Apple was calling time

:07:47.:07:49.

on its contract for graphics chips. These power the screens

:07:50.:07:52.

of iPhones, iPods and iPads. Imagination Technologies'

:07:53.:07:56.

share price plunged It's thought Apple wants to bring

:07:57.:07:59.

chip design in-house But there's concern about

:08:00.:08:05.

the implications for the region's biggest technology

:08:06.:08:10.

firm - ARM Holdings. It's headquartered

:08:11.:08:12.

in Cambridge and employs more ARM was taken over by the Japanese

:08:13.:08:14.

giant Softbank last All these companies are susceptible

:08:15.:08:35.

to third party and commercial market changes. If other manufacturers of

:08:36.:08:39.

devices decide they want to bring their chip design in-house rather

:08:40.:08:43.

than using a third-party, that is more revenue and workload that could

:08:44.:08:46.

disappear from these companies quite quickly.

:08:47.:08:47.

Well, neither Apple nor ARM Holdings or its Japanese owner

:08:48.:08:49.

But industry insiders tell me ARM is in a stronger position

:08:50.:08:53.

because its chip designs are so ubiquitous

:08:54.:08:54.

and power the very heart of devices and home appliances,

:08:55.:08:57.

a situation that's likely to only increase as everyday life becomes

:08:58.:09:00.

more and more connected to the internet.

The world's longest aircraft has been repaired and upgraded

:09:03.:09:07.

following a crash in a field in Bedfordshire last summer.

:09:08.:09:10.

Airlander - which is part airship, part plane -

:09:11.:09:13.

was on its second test flight when it landed nose-first.

from the Air Accident Investigations Branch,

:09:17.:09:22.

with special airbag feet which inflate as it comes in to land.

:09:23.:09:26.

I'll leave you with the weather for the week ahead with Julie.

:09:27.:09:31.

It's a dry and chilly start to the night with clear

:09:32.:09:34.

Later, we'll have thicker cloud and outbreaks of rain

:09:35.:09:39.

By the end of the night, we should have temperatures around

:09:40.:09:43.

eight or nine Celsius, with light south-westerly winds.

:09:44.:09:46.

Tomorrow, we hold on to the cloud, with further outbreaks of rain.

:09:47.:09:49.

There will be quite a bit of dry weather too, but not

:09:50.:09:57.

There will be a cooler feel to things, with winds

:09:58.:10:02.

We finish the day with a lot of cloud and further

:10:03.:10:09.

I don't think we'll see the cloud breaking until after dark.

:10:10.:10:13.

On Wednesday, high pressure is building in.

:10:14.:10:18.

It looks like it will be a largely fine and dry day,

:10:19.:10:21.

The cloud will thicken as the day goes on.

:10:22.:10:27.

Later, that could produce a bit of rain, but for most of us,

:10:28.:10:30.

That high pressure stays with us through the end of the week

:10:31.:10:35.

The difficulty is judging how much cloud will be caught

:10:36.:10:38.

On Thursday, some mist and fog to clear and then a fine and dry day

:10:39.:10:45.

It looks as if it will be a repeat performance on Friday.

:10:46.:10:51.

Once any mist and fog has gone, most of us should see

:10:52.:10:53.

In a moment, Jay has the national forecast,

:10:54.:10:56.

but I leave you with the outlook for next weekend.

:10:57.:10:59.

Looks like sunny spells on Saturday and largely dry on Sunday,

:11:00.:11:01.

Good evening. Some rain spreading in across the Atlantic overnight. As it

:11:02.:11:17.

does so we will see some fresh Atlantic air following on from

:11:18.:11:22.

behind. The pollen levels will drop but the temperatures will also drop.

:11:23.:11:26.

Some rain to
