The family of a Newcastle United fan who was killed on MH17 have been to | :01:12. | :01:19. | |
Downing Street today. He was one of two Newcastle fans who died on the | :01:20. | :01:26. | |
flight. We can go live now to Downing Street. | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
this afternoon, flanked by officials from the Foreign Office | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
and Family Liaison officers, Barry Sweeney walked into the front | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
Other relatives of the victims of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH1 | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
Most went into the building round the back, away from the camdras | :01:40. | :01:42. | |
The meeting with David Cameron lasted just under an hour. | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
It was held in private and Downing Street made no statement afterwards. | :01:46. | :01:47. | |
We know they discussed the international response to the crash. | :01:48. | :01:53. | |
We know the relatives were keen to find out | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
more about what David Cameron could do to help the bodies be returned | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
But we would know little about what was discussed if it wasn't for Barry | :02:01. | :02:08. | |
if it wasn't for Barry Sweeney, who was the only relative to speak | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
Despite meeting Mr Cameron today he is angry and frustrated | :02:12. | :02:22. | |
at not knowing what has happened to his son's body. | :02:23. | :02:31. | |
David Cameron was very humble and answered every question that was | :02:32. | :02:38. | |
asked of him. He brought a few experts in to talk about cr`sh sites | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
and how the aeroplane might have come down and whatever. All of the | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
questions were answered. We basically asked him just to help. He | :02:47. | :02:52. | |
is doing everything and his utmost. There remains the very real | :02:53. | :02:58. | |
possibility that some relatives will never get the bodies of their loved | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
ones back? Yes, that is something Barrx Sweeney | :03:02. | :03:03. | |
is very aware of. There are many bodies still | :03:04. | :03:05. | |
unaccounted for but he is trying not That is a worst`case scenario and we | :03:06. | :03:18. | |
are trying to be positive that we will get Liam and also John old | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
back. We want to get the two back and hopefully everyone else will | :03:24. | :03:24. | |
come back with them. With Barry Sweeney, | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
and speaking to the media for the first time, was Barry's ex | :03:30. | :03:31. | |
wife, Liam's natural mother Angela. She talked briefly about life since | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
she learnt about her son's death. Just functioning basically, just | :03:35. | :03:46. | |
waiting and liaison officers have been very nice. As Barry sahd, it is | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
been very nice. As Barry said, it is just the weighting that is the worst | :03:51. | :04:03. | |
bit. Tonight Barry and Angela are returning to the north`east would | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
not very much extra information about the whereabouts of thd | :04:08. | :04:08. | |
not very much extra information about the whereabouts of the body of | :04:09. | :04:08. | |
their son. Two Hartlepool fishermen are | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
recovering after enduring an eight hour ordeal drifting in | :04:14. | :04:14. | |
a tiny life raft in the North Sea. It all happened 18 miles | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
off the coast of Hartlepool. Their boat sank suddenly after | :04:19. | :04:20. | |
its net snagged something on the It went down | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
so fast they had no time to make a distress call so no`one knew where | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
they were or what was happening. Luckily a passing Dutch | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
yacht came to their rescue. In this tiny raft they'd drifted | :04:32. | :04:33. | |
for hours. Their fishing boat sunk milds | :04:34. | :04:41. | |
off shore. Then over | :04:42. | :04:48. | |
the horizon came this Dutch yacht. The couple on board became the | :04:49. | :05:03. | |
unlikely rescuers. I could see the skipper waving and I learned on my | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
dive course in meant they had a problem. I said, come on, there is a | :05:07. | :05:12. | |
man in trouble. The skipper was very cool and happy and his mate was | :05:13. | :05:19. | |
emotional. Emotional but astonishingly lucky. | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
Happy and safe. By the time the RNLI got there and filmed these pictures, | :05:23. | :05:25. | |
the Hartlepool fishermen were aboard the luxury yacht, fed and watered. | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
We actually took the two lads back onto the lifeboat and we ask them if | :05:30. | :05:36. | |
they were thirsty or drink of tea or anything to eat and they said they | :05:37. | :05:37. | |
anything to eat and they sahd they had been treated like kings on the | :05:38. | :05:45. | |
yacht. Fantastic. They were so happy that we had seen them. I have never | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
seen people so happy on board and those two men. The two fishermen | :05:49. | :05:54. | |
those two men. The two fishdrmen were lying low today recovering from | :05:55. | :05:55. | |
the raw deal. Before they were found the raw deal. Before they wdre found | :05:56. | :05:59. | |
they had drifted for around eight hours and they are very grateful to | :06:00. | :06:05. | |
the rescuers. They came to our and brought us flowers and they were so | :06:06. | :06:13. | |
happy that we were there. They bring me a nice bottle of whiskey and they | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
do not know that I am a collector. It was very nice. The Dutch couple | :06:18. | :06:23. | |
who carried out the rescue our heading off to Whitby which was | :06:24. | :06:26. | |
their scheduled stop before they took part in the rescue. Thd | :06:27. | :06:29. | |
fishermen say they were treated took part in the rescue. The | :06:30. | :06:30. | |
fishermen say they were tre`ted like fishermen say they were treated like | :06:31. | :06:32. | |
kings aboard the yacht so it was a happy ending to what must've been | :06:33. | :06:34. | |
kings aboard the yacht so it was a happy ending to what must'vd been a | :06:35. | :06:34. | |
very traumatic day. An inquest's been opened | :06:35. | :06:51. | |
and adjourned into the victhm of the drowning near North Shields | :06:52. | :06:53. | |
Fish Quay at the weekend. He's now been named | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
as 46`year`old Paul Fairley Today's hearing lasted just | :06:57. | :06:58. | |
a few minutes. The full inquest will be held | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
in September. The family of a County Durham man | :07:02. | :07:03. | |
who died months after being punched in a nightclub in 2010 are taking | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
their bid for justice furthdr. Solicitors have taken their case to | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
the Attorney General to challenge a ruling by a coroner that said | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
the assault which left Kristian Thompson in a five day coma did not | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
cause his death ten months later. Kristian Thompson was 18, | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
a keen footballer and cricketer. And, says his family, | :07:19. | :07:21. | |
a fit and healthy young man. But a single punch to | :07:22. | :07:23. | |
the head inside this nightclub in Consett left him in a coma | :07:24. | :07:26. | |
and needing life`saving surgery Ten months after the assault, | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
Kristian died At the inquest in November 2012 a | :07:30. | :07:44. | |
coroner decided there was insufficient evidence to link the | :07:45. | :07:46. | |
assault with the eventual death of assault with the eventual ddath of | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
Kristian Thompson and recorded an open verdict. A pathologist said it | :07:51. | :07:56. | |
may have been a case of sudden adult death syndrome. The family refused | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
to accept this and their solicitors have submitted formal legal papers | :08:01. | :08:02. | |
to the Attorney General asking for to the Attorney General asking for | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
the inquest result to be overturned. We were really tnhappy | :08:07. | :08:08. | |
overturned. We were really unhappy with the verdict of the inqtest | :08:09. | :08:10. | |
overturned. We were really tnhappy with the verdict of the inquest. We | :08:11. | :08:11. | |
with the verdict of the inqtest We disagreed with it fundamentally and | :08:12. | :08:12. | |
disagreed with it fundament`lly and we think it was flawed. A lot of the | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
questions we asked as a family we think it was flawed. A lot of the | :08:17. | :08:18. | |
questions we asked as a famhly were just met with, I don't know or, I am | :08:19. | :08:24. | |
not sure. We did not have any of the clinicians present to ask any of the | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
questions and the second pathologist was not present to ask `` answer any | :08:29. | :08:34. | |
of the questions that we asked and we would like the Attorney General | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
to quash the verdict and for us to have another inquest where we can | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
get to the truth of what actually happened and what caused | :08:44. | :08:44. | |
Christian's death. A spokesman for the | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
Attorney General's Office told Look North Kristian Thompson's case | :08:50. | :08:51. | |
will be considered before deciding whether or not to ask the Hhgh Court | :08:52. | :08:53. | |
to look again at the evidence. Meanwhile the attacker, Mark Berry, | :08:54. | :08:56. | |
has served time in prison after he admitted causing grievous bodily | :08:57. | :08:59. | |
harm and has been released. Kristian's mother says her fight for | :09:00. | :09:01. | |
truth and justice goes on. Stefanie joins me in the sttdio The | :09:02. | :09:16. | |
family have taken the case to be a journey `` Attorney General so what | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
happens next? The family ard devastated. I spoke to his mother | :09:21. | :09:22. | |
devastated. I spoke to his lother today and she said they have so many | :09:23. | :09:25. | |
today and she said they havd so many unanswered questions and she says | :09:26. | :09:26. | |
unanswered questions and shd says she has barely slept for the past | :09:27. | :09:27. | |
she has barely slept for thd past four years and the family believe | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
there has to be a link between the attack and his eventual death. At | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
the time of the inquest the Crown Prosecution Service said there was | :09:37. | :09:39. | |
Prosecution Service said thdre was insufficient evidence and that is | :09:40. | :09:42. | |
why further charges such as manslaughter were not brought. In | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
six weeks time we expect a decision from the Attorney General. Hf he | :09:48. | :09:55. | |
from the Attorney General. If he thinks it is necessary to h`ve | :09:56. | :09:56. | |
thinks it is necessary to have another inquest he will apply to the | :09:57. | :09:58. | |
High Court and they will make another final decision. There are | :09:59. | :10:03. | |

York which is hoovering up private information without the knowledge of | :10:09. | :10:13. | |

saying the information is not being used but it could change. | :10:18. | :10:23. | |
Do not be deceived by the ancient attractions of York, this is a | :10:24. | :10:26. | |

could be used to track our movements. They are suspicious about | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
big companies wanting to know so much about us. We do not know why | :11:19. | :11:23. | |

really knows how it will play out in future. Whether you embrace it or | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
choose not to engage with it at all is ultimately up to you. | :12:35. | :12:40. | |
A pensioner who's lived in her Carlisle home for more than 30 years | :12:41. | :12:43. | |
has vowed to battle proposals which could see it demolishdd. | :12:44. | :12:45. | |
84`year`old Jean Hall could be forced to leave | :12:46. | :12:48. | |
if a new development of the city, which would see her home replaced | :12:49. | :12:52. | |
The city council announced the plan, which also includes knocking | :12:53. | :12:57. | |
The only hint that Jean's home for more than 30 years is under threat. | :12:58. | :13:05. | |
This generic letter telling her about a public consultation over | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
plans for Carlisle's city centre was put through her door last wdek. | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
But it wasn't until the 84`year`old's son | :13:14. | :13:16. | |
investigated what the consultation was about that she realised her home | :13:17. | :13:19. | |
could be demolished under plans put forward by the city council. | :13:20. | :13:30. | |
I think it is disgraceful. I do not know where they've `` they `` they | :13:31. | :13:36. | |
think they get the power from. I am here and I do not want to be | :13:37. | :13:39. | |
here and I do not want to bd anywhere else. My son asked me if I | :13:40. | :13:44. | |
was offered ?1 million if I would take it former house or even two | :13:45. | :13:46. | |
million and I said no. He s`id take it former house or even two | :13:47. | :13:47. | |
million and I said no. He said he million and I said no. He said he | :13:48. | :13:47. | |
would have to get recertifidd and I would have to get recertifidd and I | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
said he could get recertified but said he could get recertified but | :13:52. | :13:54. | |
this is where I am and this is where I am staying. | :13:55. | :13:55. | |
Under the plan the civic centre and eight homes, including Jean's, | :13:56. | :13:58. | |
They'd be replaced with mord shops, to help see off competition | :13:59. | :14:01. | |
This is a consultation and ht is at an early stage and the proposals are | :14:02. | :14:13. | |
far from formed. It is about local plan and responding to statttory | :14:14. | :14:16. | |
provisions within national policy which we have a duty to do. We have | :14:17. | :14:19. | |
to identify retail and leistre need to identify retail and leisure need | :14:20. | :14:24. | |
and see where they can be located in the city centre and in this kind of | :14:25. | :14:26. | |
location it will always be an option location it will always be an option | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
that will have to be explored. The council says that homes in the new | :14:32. | :14:33. | |
development could be on offdr but development could be on offer but | :14:34. | :14:35. | |
Jean does not want to give tp the Jean does not want to give up the | :14:36. | :14:39. | |

to stay? Oh, yes. They would have to knock me down with the building. I | :14:52. | :14:53. | |
will not give in easily. Plenty more to come | :14:54. | :14:59. | |

have the property taken on and to reintroduce hydropower becatse it is | :19:02. | :19:03. | |
reintroduce hydropower because it is the troop home of hydroelectricity. | :19:04. | :19:09. | |
For the cure rate this is a dream come true, recreating what Lord | :19:10. | :19:16. | |
Armstrong achieved 150 years ago. It is the famous house that was the | :19:17. | :19:20. | |
first one to be let by hydroelectricity and that is water | :19:21. | :19:23. | |
power, he had a great passion for water power because he thought there | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
was a monstrous waste of cold with the steam engine and he predicted | :19:28. | :19:31. | |
that within 200 years all of our coal reserves would be exhausted at | :19:32. | :19:33. | |
coal reserves would be exhatsted at the rate we were using cold and we | :19:34. | :19:35. | |
must have an alternative. Hd the rate we were using cold and we | :19:36. | :19:37. | |
must have an alternative. Hd thought every stream and river ought to be | :19:38. | :19:43. | |
put into use to provide both motive power and power to generate | :19:44. | :19:47. | |
electricity. Lord Armstrong introduced hydroelectric like to | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
Cragside in 1880. His turbines provided the electricity and his | :19:53. | :19:55. | |
friend provided the light btlbs friend provided the light bulbs. | :19:56. | :19:57. | |
Today those bulbs are LED, `ll now Today those bulbs are LED, all now | :19:58. | :20:05. | |
lit by hydropower. We have to remind ourselves that this place and its | :20:06. | :20:09. | |
ideas and its inventions were way ahead of its time. We talk `bout | :20:10. | :20:11. | |
ahead of its time. We talk about eco`power now. Armstrong was seeing | :20:12. | :20:18. | |
that 150 years ago and he knew there was energy in this water and he knew | :20:19. | :20:21. | |
that we should save the likds of that we should save the likes of | :20:22. | :20:24. | |
coal and gas and harness wh`t water coal and gas and harness wh`t water | :20:25. | :20:29. | |
can give us and this beautiful Archimedes screw I think is the | :20:30. | :20:33. | |
epitome of his philosophy and he were alive today and walking around | :20:34. | :20:36. | |
he really would be proud to see something like this because it is a | :20:37. | :20:41. | |
reminder that his ideas and his inventions are as relevant today as | :20:42. | :20:43. | |
they were 150 years ago. Cr`gside they were 150 years ago. Cragside | :20:44. | :20:49. | |
was converted to mains electricity in 1945 and tonight for the first | :20:50. | :20:54. | |
time in 75 years the house will once again be led by hydroelectrhc | :20:55. | :20:55. | |
time in 75 years the house will once again be led by hydroelectric power. | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
again be led by hydroelectrhc power. If you are wondering about the | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
technology used here the Archimedes screw, it was invented by the | :21:04. | :21:06. | |
ancient Egyptians and modified by ancient Egyptians and modified by | :21:07. | :21:10. | |
Archimedes, it was originally used to lift water out of rivers by | :21:11. | :21:12. | |
turning a revolving helix but to lift water out of rivers by | :21:13. | :21:14. | |
turning a revolving helix btt by turning a revolving helix but by | :21:15. | :21:18. | |
putting it into reverse it can be a turbine. The water runs down the | :21:19. | :21:22. | |
turbine that we have here and it spins the turbine and gener`te | :21:23. | :21:23. | |
turbine that we have here and it spins the turbine and generate the | :21:24. | :21:27. | |
electricity which creates power to be used here. | :21:28. | :21:30. | |
Thank you. As simple as that! That wouldn't be | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
enough I have straighteners, would it? | :21:35. | :21:35. | |
You are on Commonwealth Games watch. You are on Commonwealth Gamds watch. | :21:36. | :21:37. | |
I am. It is going quite well. There was another medal for the | :21:38. | :21:42. | |
region at the Commonwealth Games last night. It went to Middlesbrough | :21:43. | :21:45. | |
swimmer Aimee Wilmott and it's the third she's picked`up in Glasgow. | :21:46. | :21:47. | |
There was silver too for Culbria's Lauren Smith in the badminton, | :21:48. | :21:50. | |
although she didn't even get the chance to get on court in the final. | :21:51. | :21:53. | |
Dawn Thewlis rounds up the `ction. With a silver and bronze already in | :21:54. | :21:56. | |
the bag, Aimee Willmott wasn't expected to add to her tally in the | :21:57. | :21:59. | |
200m butterfly. But having led into the final 50m, she was only just | :22:00. | :22:02. | |
overhauled by Canada's Audrdy Lacroix, with Hartlepool's Jemma | :22:03. | :22:05. | |
Lowe in fifth. So delight for Aimee at another silver, and for the | :22:06. | :22:08. | |
friends and family who travelled north to watch her. She was back in | :22:09. | :22:10. | |
the pool this morning but n`rrowly failed to make it to this evening's | :22:11. | :22:14. | |
final of the 400m freestyle. I just got stuck in on the third | :22:15. | :22:22. | |
length and I knew I was stronger than some of the other girls but I | :22:23. | :22:25. | |
do not go out by early enough but I am chuffed with that. | :22:26. | :22:33. | |
In badminton's mixed team event there was joy and frustration for | :22:34. | :22:35. | |
Carlisle's Lauren Smith. Dud to play the fifth game of the final against | :22:36. | :22:38. | |
Malaysia, England's 3`1 defdat meant she didn't get the chance to step on | :22:39. | :22:41. | |
to the court, though she did still pick up a silver medal. | :22:42. | :22:44. | |
It is a really great feeling. Obviously when you get a glimpse | :22:45. | :22:47. | |
It is a really great feeling. Obviously when you get a glhmpse at | :22:48. | :22:48. | |
Obviously when you get a glimpse at the gold you are a little bht | :22:49. | :22:52. | |
disappointed that if we go back and remember how we felt after yesterday | :22:53. | :22:53. | |
was that with which was hugd, it is was that with which was huge, it is | :22:54. | :22:55. | |
amazing. Among today's qualifiers former | :22:56. | :22:57. | |
British record holder Chris Tomlinson from Teesside who made it | :22:58. | :22:59. | |
through to the long jump final with a jump of 7m 89cm, although he'll | :23:00. | :23:02. | |
have to pull something special out of the bag if he's to challenge his | :23:03. | :23:05. | |
rival and Olympic champion Greg Rutherford who jumped 16 cm | :23:06. | :23:08. | |
further. Berwick's Guy Learmonth was up | :23:09. | :23:09. | |
against world record holder David Rudisha in what turned out to be the | :23:10. | :23:12. | |
fastest of the men's 800m heats. Although he was pipped to third | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
place by just over a tenth of a second he qualified for the semi | :23:17. | :23:19. | |
finals as the fastest loser. North Yorkshire's Jessica Taylor is | :23:20. | :23:33. | |
pushing hard for a medal in the heptathlon. After two events, the | :23:34. | :23:36. | |
high jump and the hurdles, she's currently lying in fourth spot with | :23:37. | :23:39. | |
five events left. She'll go in the 200m and the shot put later tonight. | :23:40. | :23:42. | |
And in the women's cross cotntry cycling another Jessica, Jessie | :23:43. | :23:45. | |
Roberts from Northallerton crossed the line for Scotland in a | :23:46. | :23:47. | |
creditable 11th place. Well, we have four more chances of a | :23:48. | :23:49. | |
medal tonight, starting with the North East pair of Sonia Samuels, | :23:50. | :23:52. | |
from North Shields, and Shildon s Kate Avery, who go in the women's | :23:53. | :23:55. | |
10,000 metres final just after 7:00pm. Just before 10pm it's the | :23:56. | :24:00. | |
final of the women's 1500 metres, featuring Laura Weightman from | :24:01. | :24:07. | |
Alnwick in Northumberland. Before then, Carlisle's Nick Miller goes | :24:08. | :24:09. | |
for glory in the final of the men's hammer. Middlesbrough wheelchair | :24:10. | :24:12. | |
racer Jade Jones has another 48 hours to wait for the final of her | :24:13. | :24:14. | |
event, that's the T54, 1500 metres. But the 18`year`old who battled her | :24:15. | :24:18. | |
way to third place in the qualifying heat says she's learned a lot from | :24:19. | :24:21. | |
the quality of the competition. She has been coached by Tanni | :24:22. | :24:33. | |
Grey`Thompson. The girls race a lot more differently out there at | :24:34. | :24:35. | |

Paralympics on the Commonwealth Games. It is a lot more tactical and | :24:37. | :24:41. | |
it is about getting yourself in the right positions and you learn from | :24:42. | :24:44. | |
every race and that is good to get the opportunity. Tanni Grey`Thompson | :24:45. | :24:46. | |

that but it was a good race and I enjoyed it. We will have more | :24:52. | :24:56. | |
results in the late news. Now I was chatting to someone in the | :24:57. | :25:00. | |
shop about whether to someone in the shop about whether today and cloud | :25:01. | :25:08. | |
and breeze and spots of rain made it feel fresher today. | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
Temperatures still hit 23 on the Northumberland coast. Tomorrow we | :25:13. | :25:22. | |
will have a bit of an East/west split with eastern areas tending to | :25:23. | :25:28. | |
be drier and brighter. The breeze continues to make things fedl | :25:29. | :25:32. | |
fresher than it has done recently. This evening it is mostly briny `` | :25:33. | :25:36. | |
dry with clear spells early in the night but later on the cloud will | :25:37. | :25:40. | |
spill into western areas and there will be patchy rain in Cumbria in | :25:41. | :25:43. | |
the early hours of the mornhng. Temperatures stay in double figures | :25:44. | :25:48. | |
and the breeze will stay with us and it will feel fresher than recent | :25:49. | :25:52. | |
nights. Tomorrow it will generally be cloudy in the West with rain | :25:53. | :25:56. | |
coming and going through thd day, drier and brighter further east, not | :25:57. | :26:01. | |
bone dry but you have a better chance of seeing prolonged brighter | :26:02. | :26:04. | |
spells. Most places tend to brighten up towards the end of the day and | :26:05. | :26:10. | |
temperatures peak at 21. It is still not cold but a bit fresher than it | :26:11. | :26:16. | |
has been recently. The weather front brings cloud and patchy rain | :26:17. | :26:20. | |
tomorrow. It wriggles around for the next few days and comes back for a | :26:21. | :26:24. | |
second bite at us on Thursd`y and on Friday it is not completely cleared | :26:25. | :26:28. | |
away. That sets the scene for a more unsettled spell in the next few | :26:29. | :26:32. | |
days. If you are out and about on Thursday and Friday rain for many of | :26:33. | :26:38. | |
us but temperatures could make 20 degrees and the showers become fewer | :26:39. | :26:42. | |
and further between Friday. Brighter spells developing in between times. | :26:43. | :26:44. | |

July weather picture to us. Check out our website and we seem to be a | :26:50. | :26:53. | |
bit short of shots from Cumbria this month so if you have a shot from the | :26:54. | :26:56. | |
west of the region we would love to see it. We will keep you bang up to | :26:57. | :27:01. | |
date with the latest forecast on the go on the BBC weather app and the | :27:02. | :27:06. | |
local radio station. Thank you very much. | :27:07. | :27:25. | |
A look finally at the closing headlines tonight: More than 100 | :27:26. | :27:28. | |
Palestinians are killed in Gaza after 24 hours of intense | :27:29. | :27:30. | |
bombardment by Israel. And the families of the two Tyneside | :27:31. | :27:33. | |
men who died in the MH17 cr`sh have been meeting with the Prime Minster | :27:34. | :27:36. | |
That is it from us tonight. We will have their views at 10:25pm. | :27:37. | :27:57. | |
I leave the ashram, travel halfway across the world to find my father, | :27:58. | :28:01. | |
Oh, well. As Vashrati says, gotta keep smiling! | :28:02. | :28:10. | |
We don't tend to use the bathroom together here. | :28:11. | :28:12. | |
All right, well, I'll catch you later. | :28:13. | :28:14. | |
This ashram of yours, it might be a cult. | :28:15. | :28:17. | |
