:00:00. > :00:10.Now on BBC One, it's time for the news where you are.
:00:11. > :00:13.First tonight, the need to expand our trade horizons
:00:14. > :00:17.Whatever the result of the negotiations over the next
:00:18. > :00:25.two years, many of our businesses are already looking
:00:26. > :00:27.beyond Europe to expand, so today a high-powered trade
:00:28. > :00:29.delegation from China was invited to Milton Keynes.
:00:30. > :00:33.There's some flash photography in Kate Bradbrook's report.
:00:34. > :00:37.Trying to understand the enigma of British business post-Brexit.
:00:38. > :00:39.This trade delegation from the Chinese city
:00:40. > :00:45.of Shenzhen began their tour of the Milton Keynes area
:00:46. > :00:48.here at Bletchley Park, home of the codebreakers.
:00:49. > :00:50.The aim - to tune into the UK market.
:00:51. > :00:54.We're part of the business community here in Milton Keynes.
:00:55. > :00:56.We provide heritage, but actually it's a business
:00:57. > :01:01.It's important for us, therefore, to make sure that everybody,
:01:02. > :01:04.both nationally and internationally, is aware of what we have to offer
:01:05. > :01:07.here and it's a great opportunity for us to reach out
:01:08. > :01:12.This visit is the result of a year of planning in response
:01:13. > :01:16.to the Chinese President's state visit in 2015.
:01:17. > :01:19.It was said it would herald a golden era of UK-China relations.
:01:20. > :01:23.Now as we prepare to leave the EU, businesses are hoping to capitalise.
:01:24. > :01:30.What we want is, we all know Great Britain is great,
:01:31. > :01:35.so as entrepreneurs from China we want to be here to see how
:01:36. > :01:43.In particular, we are interested about the wake of Brexit,
:01:44. > :01:45.what's the latest developments between China and the UK,
:01:46. > :01:52.will there be any closer relations between London and Beijing?
:01:53. > :01:55.Milton Keynes was chosen for its reputation for innovation.
:01:56. > :01:58.Milton Keynes may also have more in common with the mega city
:01:59. > :02:06.The idea of going to Milton Keynes when these people come
:02:07. > :02:08.from Shenzhen, which 30 years ago was a small fishing village
:02:09. > :02:14.with a population of 35,000 people and is now a city of 15 million,
:02:15. > :02:16.so I guess it's grown faster than Milton Keynes
:02:17. > :02:23.The aim of today was to showcase the best of British
:02:24. > :02:38.Earlier I asked Lesley Batchelor, Director General of the Institute
:02:39. > :02:41.of Export why trips like this one are so important.
:02:42. > :02:43.Any business needs to have some face-to-face interaction.
:02:44. > :02:47.I think it gives everybody a chance to see that this is a great
:02:48. > :02:49.opportunity for us and, indeed, that there is somebody
:02:50. > :02:55.The Chinese in particular find it very important to meet several times
:02:56. > :02:57.before they even start thinking about doing business with people.
:02:58. > :03:01.And we are currently very reliant on European trade.
:03:02. > :03:06.Are we ready in the east to look beyond Europe now?
:03:07. > :03:11.No, I think we need to do some work on how we're going to trade.
:03:12. > :03:14.I think we need to learn a lot more about process and about how
:03:15. > :03:22.the compliance issues work around the world.
:03:23. > :03:25.Goods can't travel on an aeroplane, for example, without the right
:03:26. > :03:28.security papers and the papers that actually help you to get into that
:03:29. > :03:31.country on the other side and we as a nation need to look
:03:32. > :03:34.at how we do that and that's what the institute does,
:03:35. > :03:36.we are very big on helping people to trade and understand
:03:37. > :03:38.the documentation and compliance issues that support that trade.
:03:39. > :03:41.Do you see Brexit as a problem or a big opportunity?
:03:42. > :03:47.From where we are, it means that there is going to be an awful
:03:48. > :03:50.lot of opportunity for businesses but it does mean that they have
:03:51. > :03:53.the problem of finding out how to enter those markets properly
:03:54. > :03:55.and what to do to make it an effectively profitable
:03:56. > :04:04.Next - if I can't have her, no one else will.
:04:05. > :04:06.The chilling words of a man who tried to kill his ex-girlfriend
:04:07. > :04:11.before violently stabbing her new partner to death.
:04:12. > :04:13.Matthew Sharpe has been jailed for at least 25
:04:14. > :04:16.years for killing Andrew Hasler and trying to kill Charna Knights
:04:17. > :04:25.A neighbour who saved her life was today praised by the judge.
:04:26. > :04:27.Possessive and controlling with an intention to murder,
:04:28. > :04:30.Matthew Sharpe bought three knifes with the sole intention of killing
:04:31. > :04:42.Charna Knights, supported by family and friends in court today,
:04:43. > :04:44.survived after being stabbed 12 times after breaking
:04:45. > :04:51.The court heard that Sharpe said sorry as he put his arm around
:04:52. > :04:52.Charna's neck and then stabbed her millimetres
:04:53. > :05:01.Andrew Hasler tried to help but he was stabbed 17 times.
:05:02. > :05:03.Sharpe didn't stop until he was dead - and then he turned
:05:04. > :05:07.The vicious attack happened in January at the flat
:05:08. > :05:11.Charna Knights shared with Andrew Hasler.
:05:12. > :05:15.He'd offered her a place to stay and they formed a relationship.

:05:18. > :05:27.He was praised by the judge and given a bravery award
:05:28. > :05:30.for wrestling the knife from Sharpe as he tried to stab him.
:05:31. > :05:33.The murdered man's mother gave her reaction.
:05:34. > :05:35.Still can't believe that Andrew's not here with us.
:05:36. > :05:37.But I'm pleased to see that the judge recognised
:05:38. > :05:44.Andrew Phelps' actions in saving Charna.
:05:45. > :05:47.Charna Knights said although she knew Sharpe had a temper,
:05:48. > :05:56.she had no idea he would commit such an evil attack.
:05:57. > :05:59.The actor Tim Piggott Smith has died while in Northampton.

:06:48. > :06:57.It's a dry night with a lot of the sky and mist and fog. There will be
:06:58. > :07:03.some chilly temperatures. Low enough for a patch of frost in places. A
:07:04. > :07:08.chilly start for tomorrow. We are looking at lots and lots of
:07:09. > :07:18.sunshine, unbroken from many others. Temperatures respond wisely. Warm
:07:19. > :07:25.air. Sunday, some mist and fog clearing and then a dry day with
:07:26. > :07:31.temperatures up to 22 Celsius. 72 foreign aid. I'll leave you with the
:07:32. > :07:33.outlook. Becoming much colder again come the beginning of next week,
:07:34. > :07:36.Sharon was on Monday but finance drag in more cloud and temperatures
:07:37. > :07:46.will be down by 8-9 . Hello, my advice would be to make
:07:47. > :07:49.the most of the weather this weekend, if you can. Because there
:07:50. > :07:54.will be a good day love sunshine on offer and it will continue to warm
:07:55. > :07:58.up as well. This picture was taken in Cumbria, at Workington, later in
:07:59. > :08:01.the afternoon. We got the sunshine eventually in northern England but
:08:02. > :08:04.it's in the Northwest we have the lowest temperatures at the moment.
:08:05. > :08:08.Under clear skies, it's turning quite chilly. There's some cloud but
:08:09. > :08:12.most is sitting in the far North West of Scotland and we will see
:08:13. > :08:16.some patchy fog affecting parts of the M4 and M5. A chilly night under
:08:17. > :08:20.the skies in the countryside. Temperatures not far away from
:08:21. > :08:24.freezing. It will warm up very quickly in the sunshine. The fog
:08:25. > :08:28.won't last long. It will be a lovely day across England and Wales. More
:08:29. > :08:29.sunshine today than we had in northern
