There's more throughout the evening on the BBC News Channel and I will | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
be back The two Newcastle United fans who | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
died along with 296 others on Flight MH17 have been remembered ` | :00:10. | :00:16. | |
at the opening home game Liam Sweeney | :00:17. | :00:21. | |
and John Alder were travelling to a pre`season tournament in New Zealand | :00:22. | :00:27. | |
` when their plane was brought down At 5 minutes to 4, | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
the normal pre`match procedure of Newcastle United's opening game | :00:31. | :00:40. | |
against Manchester City was brought to a halt, and the team captains | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
made their way back to the tunnel. They returned to | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
the centre circle with the families of Liam Sweeney and John Alder, | :00:49. | :00:50. | |
two dedicated fans who died as they travelled to the other side of the | :00:51. | :00:55. | |
world in order to watch their team. A moving and imamculately`observed | :00:56. | :01:03. | |
minute's silence then followed. Speaking just ahead of the game, | :01:04. | :01:05. | |
Liam's father described the whirlwind of emotions he was | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
feeling ahead of the commemoration. In their socks off to accommodate | :01:09. | :01:19. | |
our family and John's family. `` Newcastle United have worked their | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
socks off. The Manchester City fans have made a flag for them with the | :01:24. | :01:31. | |
Newcastle badge. I think football will be secondary to date. It will | :01:32. | :01:34. | |
be all about Liam and John. It is going to be hard. I would have loved | :01:35. | :01:40. | |
to have run out with a black and white top on in front of everyone. | :01:41. | :01:47. | |
But we have to celebrate these lives. | :01:48. | :01:49. | |
The funeral of Liam Sweeney is due to be held | :01:50. | :01:51. | |
this week, while the body of John Alder is yet to be identified. | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
And you can see more of that story on tomorrow's Look North. | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
Well, in the game itself, despite plenty of effort, and a passionate | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
crowd, Newcastle just couldn't quite find enough to trouble a much more | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
After required opening period, city took the lead in the 37th minute | :02:05. | :02:22. | |
through David Silva. For a time, United looked capable of equalising, | :02:23. | :02:24. | |
especially in the second half of all stop this effort was just one of | :02:25. | :02:31. | |
several wasted chances. But a goal from Sergio Aguero on the final | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
whistle secured all three points. The final score, Newcastle United | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
nil Manchester City two. And you can see full highlights | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
of that game on Match of the Day tonight here on BBC One | :02:45. | :02:47. | |
after our late bulletin at 10:25pm. Thieves have made off with | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
an 18th century piece of armour worth thousands of pounds, after | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
scaling the stonework of one of Police are appealing for witnesses, | :02:54. | :02:55. | |
but say they are unsure exactly They say the more you see something, | :02:56. | :03:13. | |
the less you notice it. For weeks it would appear that parishioners at | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
this church in Bamburgh in walking past the armour of Ferdinand Forster | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
unaware that above their heads, the hook that held his helmet was empty. | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
Thieves had climbed the stone altarpiece to reach the artefact, | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
causing an estimated ?5,000 worth of damage to the elaborate stonework. | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
The crime remained undiscovered until... A group that has particular | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
interest in the Jacobite rebellion were due to visit and they must have | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
been doing Iraq he earlier in the week, and on Friday they pointed out | :03:49. | :03:57. | |
that the armour up their had gone. Today, parishioners were trolling | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
through the photographs to establish when the helmet disappeared from the | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
background. So far, the date of the crime has been narrowed down to | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
sometime between April and July. I'm amazed that someone has stolen | :04:10. | :04:15. | |
something, but also that they have done it in broad daylight, | :04:16. | :04:16. | |
presumably. Back to sport now, and there's been | :04:17. | :04:23. | |
a gold medal for the region on the final day of the European | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
Athletics Championships in Zurich. Teesside sprinter Richard Kilty was | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
on the third leg of the men's 4x100 relay team ` which strode away with | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
the gold in a time of 37.93 seconds. Just two weeks ago, Kilty was part | :04:34. | :04:39. | |
of the England team which won silver in the same event at | :04:40. | :04:45. | |
the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. Adam Gemili racing against the | :04:46. | :04:54. | |
clock. Time for the weather | :04:55. | :04:56. | |
prospects to start the week. The wind has been very much a | :04:57. | :05:07. | |
feature of the weather today and the showers, too. Some very heavy ones | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
for a time this afternoon. Still showers overnight, and still strong | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
wind gusting. A cool feel to the night with wind and showers. A low | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
of ten. Showers first thing tomorrow morning. Starting to ease away. | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
Sunshine coming through but still a windy day. And once the showers | :05:26. | :05:31. | |
start to drift eastwards, some spells of sunshine. Still, strong | :05:32. | :05:37. | |
gusts of wind and good waves along the East Coast. Come the afternoon, | :05:38. | :05:45. | |
showers on the sharp side. The strength of the wind a feature of | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
the weather. The good news is that the wind will ease as we move | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
through the afternoon. That's the summary. I'm back with | :05:53. | :05:55. | |
the late news just after 10pm. Good evening. It was a slow start | :05:56. | :06:14. | |
for England and Wales. We got there in the end today. A cloudy morning, | :06:15. | :06:20. | |
with some outbreaks of rain. As that weather front sank south, breaks in | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
the cloud developed. Different further north - it stayed windy and | :06:25. | :06:29. | |
wet, with showers and longer spells of rain at times. That low area of | :06:30. | :06:35. | |
pressure drifts off to the east. A few showers drifting further south, | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
inWales and northern England. The strongest of the winds first | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
thing tomorrow morning across the far north-east of Scotland. Rough | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
seas. Hopefully fewer showers than we have seen today. A cloudy start | :06:49. | :06:55. | |
and we run the risk of a few showers through Wales, the Midlands, into | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
the south-east corner. By the end | :07:00. | :07:01. |
