This is a BBC World News Today with me, Zeinab Badawi. | :00:12. | :00:16. | |
Why on week on - a day of memorial for the victims of the Norway | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
attacks. The Prime Minister says standing together is the only way | :00:20. | :00:24. | |
to fight violence. TRANSLATION: We are going to answer hatred with | :00:24. | :00:30. | |
lover. We are going to honour our heroes for ever. | :00:30. | :00:34. | |
Time is running out - President Obama appeals to both parties to | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
work together to solve the US debt problem. | :00:37. | :00:42. | |
Who did it and why? Mystery surrounds the death of Libya's top | :00:42. | :00:46. | |
rebel commander. And rare photographs of some great | :00:46. | :00:56. | |
:00:56. | :01:02. | ||
screen stars of the Hollywood era Exactly one week after the bomb | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
attack and mass shooting in Norway, hundreds of people have attended a | :01:07. | :01:11. | |
memorial service in Oslo to honour the 77 victims. The man who | :01:11. | :01:16. | |
admitted carrying out the attack, Anders Behring Breivik, is being | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
questioned for a second time. The funeral of the first of the victims | :01:20. | :01:28. | |
has taken place. We can go live to Oslo and Our Correspondent fair. -- | :01:28. | :01:35. | |
our correspondent there. Tell us what has been going on. | :01:36. | :01:43. | |
It has been a terrible week. One of the main squares here in central | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
Oslo has a building which is the headquarters of the governing | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
Labour Party. It was there that one of the main commemorative events | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
took place a few hours ago. It was the Labour Party which bore the | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
brunt of both attacks, one week ago. It lost so many members of its | :02:01. | :02:07. | |
youth wing who were holding a summer camp on the island of Utoeya, | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
when Anders Behring Breivik arrived there and opened fire on that -- in | :02:11. | :02:16. | |
a killing spree which killed almost 70 people. Today, we also had one | :02:16. | :02:21. | |
of the first funerals of a teenager who was killed on Utoeya. The | :02:21. | :02:31. | |
:02:31. | :02:33. | ||
funeral took place just outside Oslo a few hours ago. The coffin | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
containing the body of an 18-year- old victim was brought out from | :02:38. | :02:43. | |
church to be laid to rest. Her family, originally from Iraq, | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
mourning the loss of a daughter who had been a leading light in the | :02:48. | :02:55. | |
Muslim community here. Exactly one week ago, the woman was shot dead | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
along with more than 60 others attending a youth camp on the | :02:59. | :03:06. | |
island of Utoeya. She had dreamt of becoming a politician. So many | :03:06. | :03:10. | |
friends and relatives came to the funeral that hundreds had to to | :03:10. | :03:18. | |
stand outside. She will be missed. The youth can use her as an example | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
to go into politics or to follow their dreams, because she was well | :03:23. | :03:30. | |
on her way to becoming a perfect, perfect human being. This is just | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
the first of at least 76 funerals due to take place in the coming | :03:34. | :03:40. | |
days. And while people mourn here, thousands have been taking part in | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
memorials being held in the capital, Oslo. | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
Members of the governing Labour Party gathered for an emotional | :03:48. | :03:54. | |
reunion. The party, the target of both attacks last Friday, this | :03:54. | :04:04. | |
:04:04. | :04:10. | ||
summer camp on Utoeya had been for The Prime Minister it said many of | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
their young people were now dead. But he said they would manage to go | :04:14. | :04:20. | |
on, in unity. As they mourned, the police took the man responsible for | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
the atrocity, Anders Behring Breivik, for a second round of | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
questioning. But so far, they have not found any evidence that he was | :04:27. | :04:33. | |
part of a network for extremists, as he claims. And so far, there is | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
no sign his killing spree will deepen divisions in Norwegian | :04:37. | :04:43. | |
society. Into day's funeral, Christians and Muslims, immigrants | :04:43. | :04:51. | |
and ethnic Norwegians, side by side. It does remain the key issue - or | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
whether Breivik did have a compasses or not. He said on Monday, | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
during his first court appearance, that there were two other cells. -- | :05:01. | :05:06. | |
whether he had accomplices. But as we were hearing, at the police say | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
that they have no evidence of this. But even while it remains unclear, | :05:11. | :05:16. | |
the population here cannot fully relax. In particular, the Muslim | :05:16. | :05:25. | |
community here will remain afraid. Richard was in Oslo a week after | :05:25. | :05:31. | |
the tragedy there. I have been talking to the Norwegian born | :05:31. | :05:35. | |
journalist Martin Sandbu, who works for the Financial Times in London. | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
He says the country owes a duty to explain to those who lost family | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
and friends how such a violent tragedy could have occurred. | :05:43. | :05:48. | |
have a duty to try to understand and explain, and not just recoil in | :05:48. | :05:53. | |
horror. Horror and morning are the right reaction, but also trying to | :05:53. | :05:58. | |
understand what has happened. For two reasons - we need to understand | :05:58. | :06:04. | |
it as best we can to try to avoid anything like this happening again. | :06:04. | :06:09. | |
The other point is that, unfortunately, if you read this | :06:09. | :06:13. | |
terrorist manifesto, which I have done and many people have done in | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
the last week, you will find quite a few things that have not a few | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
people will agree with, even though they abhor the conclusions he came | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
to and the violence he committed. There are many people who will | :06:25. | :06:31. | |
agree with smaller or larger parts of the General ante Islam or world- | :06:31. | :06:41. | |
view he has. -- anti- Islamic world appeal. We have this idea of Norway | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
as a perfect society which adheres to social democratic principles and | :06:45. | :06:51. | |
is very open. I use saying that in reality, it is quite far from that? | :06:51. | :06:57. | |
It depends on what we are talking about. There are high levels of | :06:57. | :07:03. | |
trust in Scandinavian societies in general. There is certainly great | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
support for democracy. But I think it is true that both Norwegians, | :07:08. | :07:13. | |
and many people outside Norway, like to think that what is good is | :07:13. | :07:19. | |
almost perfect. They are very good societies, good to live in. A rich | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
and peaceful and so on. But there are some people with frustrations | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
and people who do not necessarily like the democratic form of | :07:27. | :07:31. | |
governance. I think it is true that some of those have felt that they | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
can't express their frustrations, even if they are legitimate | :07:35. | :07:43. | |
grievances, all legitimate differences, without being vilified. | :07:43. | :07:48. | |
That is dangerous. What do you say to people who say that Norway has | :07:48. | :07:57. | |
lost its innocence? I think Norway lost its innocence a long time ago. | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
It has never been true that Norwegians have been unaware of | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
violence in the world. It was occupied in World War II by Nazi | :08:04. | :08:09. | |
Germany. That is still a big part of the national narrative. Even | :08:09. | :08:16. | |
today, Norway is very active in Afghanistan and Libya. But there | :08:16. | :08:26. | |
:08:26. | :08:26. | ||
has been a conscious effort to depict in Norway as a nation of | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
peace, so I think there has been an invented or chosen kind of | :08:30. | :08:35. | |
innocence that has been shattered. Your criminal-justice system in | :08:36. | :08:39. | |
Norway is such that 21 years is the maximum someone could get. It | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
beggars belief that somebody like Breivik could only serve that | :08:43. | :08:48. | |
amount of time in prison. What are the options? Although it looks like | :08:49. | :08:54. | |
that on the face of it, it is more complicated. Norwegian law has | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
recently incorporated a higher possible term of punishment for | :08:57. | :09:03. | |
crimes against humanity. That would carry up to 30 years. There has | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
been talk of trying to charge Breivik with the VAT charge. That | :09:07. | :09:15. | |
might not be possible. -- with that charge. Even if he gets 21 years, | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
there is a provision for keeping someone locked up for five years at | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
a time if they are a continued danger to society, even after they | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
have served their full term. In theory, it would be possible to | :09:28. | :09:32. | |
keep him locked up for the rest of his life and I think that is the | :09:32. | :09:40. | |
most likely thing to happen. Our other main story to date - a US | :09:40. | :09:45. | |
debt. President Obama has told Congress, "we are running out of | :09:45. | :09:50. | |
time". He was speaking as negotiations continued in | :09:50. | :09:54. | |
Washington to try to agree a deal on raising the debt ceiling before | :09:54. | :09:59. | |
the 2nd August deadline. Mr Obama says he is confident a bipartisan | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
solution will be found. There are plenty of ways out of this mess, | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
but we are almost out of time. We need to compromise by Tuesday so | :10:08. | :10:11. | |
that our country will have the ability to pay its bills on time, | :10:11. | :10:16. | |
as we always have. They include monthly security -- social security | :10:16. | :10:21. | |
checks, veterans' benefits and government contracts with | :10:21. | :10:27. | |
businesses. If we don't come to that, we could lose our country's | :10:27. | :10:30. | |
credit rating. Not because we didn't have the capacity to pay our | :10:30. | :10:35. | |
bills - we do - but because we did not have a political system to | :10:35. | :10:41. | |
match. Let's go live to Washington and Our Correspondent Paul Adams. | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
Is President Obama right when he says he is confident a bipartisan | :10:46. | :10:51. | |
solution will be found? He needs to sound confident because | :10:51. | :10:57. | |
not that many other people are. But this does tend to happen from time | :10:57. | :11:03. | |
to time in Washington. Issues are so hotly-contested that it seems to | :11:03. | :11:09. | |
go down to the wire. We seem to have a situation of finger-pointing | :11:09. | :11:14. | |
and acrimony and somehow, out of nowhere, a deal is struck. The | :11:14. | :11:18. | |
White House spokesman said, "we have to wait for that process to | :11:18. | :11:24. | |
pay out -- played out before we can get focused on solving the problem". | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
There is a recognition that a Bill will need to be passed possibly | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
later today. It looks like it has a better chance of passing than it | :11:32. | :11:38. | |
did yesterday. In the Senate, another measure will pass. The | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
Senate is controlled by the Democrats. When the two houses have | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
had their say, something will be cobbled together out of the two of | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
them because there is some common ground in terms of the scope of | :11:50. | :11:55. | |
cuts in government spending, which will save the day. But at a lot of | :11:55. | :12:02. | |
politicking has to happen before then. Obama has been ratcheting up | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
the rhetoric, saying it does not look good for America and it could | :12:06. | :12:11. | |
lose its triple A credit rating. There is a lot of rhetoric all over | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
the place and it may be that even if a deal is done, credit rating | :12:15. | :12:20. | |
agencies will decide, finally, to downgrade the United States's | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
rating anyway. There are some people who argue that should have | :12:24. | :12:28. | |
happened a long time ago and that it is absurd to have a triple A | :12:28. | :12:33. | |
credit rating at the moment. That is waiting to unfold, but you have | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
voices from all over the place pointing to the absurdity of this. | :12:37. | :12:42. | |
The head of the World Bank has said this morning that this would be an | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
embarrassment for all Americans, if America's politicians could not | :12:47. | :12:55. | |
cobbled together a deal. The markets start to look fairly | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
jittery. If nothing happens over the weekend, we could start seeing | :12:59. | :13:07. | |
a rather dramatic set of circumstances unfold. | :13:07. | :13:11. | |
In Libya, tens of thousands of mourners have taken to the streets | :13:11. | :13:18. | |
in the rebel stronghold of Benghazi to pay tribute to their General | :13:18. | :13:25. | |
Abdel Fattah Younes. His death is likely to complicate matters for | :13:25. | :13:32. | |
the rebels, just as they were getting more international backing. | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
In the early months of this conflict, the front lines in | :13:35. | :13:41. | |
eastern Libya were constantly shifting. One morning, the rebels' | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
commander turned up, boosting morale and offering some | :13:44. | :13:49. | |
desperately needed leadership. He was an important defector from | :13:49. | :13:54. | |
Colonel Gaddafi's regime. The rebel fighters saw him as a beacon of | :13:54. | :14:00. | |
hope on that day back in April. Their general's has it is important | :14:00. | :14:05. | |
to us all, one of them said. It will give us a boost. | :14:05. | :14:09. | |
Nearly 42 years ago, he had helped Colonel Gaddafi over through the | :14:09. | :14:15. | |
Libyan monarchy in the coup of 1969. He became Gaddafi's interior | :14:15. | :14:19. | |
minister and a close aide, but he switched sides when the uprising | :14:19. | :14:23. | |
began in Benghazi this February, and came to the aid of the rebels | :14:23. | :14:30. | |
in what was his home city. But last night in Benghazi, it was announced | :14:30. | :14:40. | |
:14:40. | :14:45. | ||
General Abdel Fattah Younes was shot before he was due to stand | :14:45. | :14:49. | |
before a judicial committee. circumstances have yet to be fully | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
explained. There is plenty of room and suspicion swilling around, but | :14:52. | :14:56. | |
there are plenty of leaders insisting that his death will not | :14:56. | :15:04. | |
throw the rebellion of course. have to hope that this is a blow | :15:04. | :15:09. | |
today revolution, but it is not detrimental. It will make the | :15:09. | :15:14. | |
revolution and the people of Libya much more determined to get rid of | :15:14. | :15:24. | |
:15:24. | :15:24. | ||
Colonel Gaddafi. Amid the chaos around places like this, there is | :15:24. | :15:29. | |
still something of a military stalemate in Libya. But the killing | :15:29. | :15:32. | |
of General Abdel Fattah Younes has come at a critical time. More | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
countries, including Britain, have recognised the rebels as the sole | :15:37. | :15:40. | |
governmental authority. They, in turn, need to prove that they do | :15:40. | :15:50. | |
:15:50. | :15:51. | ||
have the ability to run the country. Let's talk a bit more about this. | :15:51. | :15:56. | |
Sabri Malek, a member of the Libyan Freedom and Democracy campaign is | :15:56. | :16:01. | |
in the studio with me. Who do you think would want to see General | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
Abdel Fattah Younes killed? This is a very good question. The Libyan | :16:05. | :16:10. | |
people, right from the beginning, they did not trust General Abdel | :16:10. | :16:14. | |
Fattah Younes. He worked for Colonel Gaddafi for 42 years. The | :16:14. | :16:20. | |
very loyal, very faithful to him. This man happened to be at the | :16:20. | :16:24. | |
wrong place at the wrong time, so he joined the revolutionaries. But | :16:24. | :16:29. | |
the suspicions have always been there that he is working for | :16:29. | :16:33. | |
Colonel Gaddafi and recently, as the rebels, the Freedom fighters, | :16:33. | :16:40. | |
have established that. They arrested him, they tortured him and | :16:40. | :16:45. | |
they killed him. So you are sure? You have information from inside | :16:45. | :16:49. | |
the country? You claim that it was the rebels themselves he wanted to | :16:49. | :16:55. | |
see their commander killed. OK. He was from a very powerful tribe and | :16:55. | :16:59. | |
they will not be very happy. What are the implications of that? | :16:59. | :17:06. | |
that is right. The problem is that the interim council is led by | :17:06. | :17:16. | |
:17:16. | :17:23. | ||
Colonel Gaddafi's men. This is a particular situation. You claim | :17:23. | :17:32. | |
that, but they are former Ministers to work for Colonel Gaddafi. Could | :17:32. | :17:37. | |
it inflame the situation? This could easily turn into a civil war. | :17:38. | :17:42. | |
In Libya, there is fundamentalism, there is tribalism, there is | :17:42. | :17:52. | |
political naivety. The whole world is taking advantage of us. Just | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
give us your over all assessment in how you think the balance of power | :17:56. | :18:01. | |
is going between Gaddafi and the rebels. Good Duffy knows for | :18:01. | :18:06. | |
certain that he can not win this war or -- Colonel Gaddafi knows for | :18:06. | :18:13. | |
certain. He has decided to leave Libya. | :18:13. | :18:20. | |
You are claiming that. How do you know for sure? He is no longer head | :18:20. | :18:27. | |
of state. He is a war lord and he of to good for terrorism as usual. | :18:27. | :18:33. | |
He wants to continue with the war or because he knows that he cannot | :18:33. | :18:37. | |
win otherwise. He imagines that because he has a | :18:37. | :18:43. | |
lot of money, he will get the civil war in Libya. The West is not | :18:43. | :18:48. | |
helping in any way. We have asked the West from day one but we want | :18:48. | :18:53. | |
the United Nations to take charge in Libya. This has not happened. So | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
you would like some kind of neutral interim power in Libya at the | :18:57. | :19:02. | |
moment. So you claim that Colonel Gaddafi is across the border and is | :19:02. | :19:06. | |
conducting his can pain from their We have not had such a verification | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
on that, but thank you very much for your thoughts. Now some of the | :19:10. | :19:16. | |
day's other developments. Tens of thousands have demonstrated -- | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
demonstrators have filled the square in the Egyptian capital of | :19:19. | :19:21. | |
Cairo. In is the largest protests since | :19:21. | :19:26. | |
the fall of their President. These demonstrations are different - | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
Islamist leaders were the insulators for the first time since | :19:29. | :19:36. | |
the revolution. -- instigators. In Syria, troops are reported to have | :19:36. | :19:40. | |
fired on protesters and demonstrators were beaten up. Tens | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
of thousands of Syrians have again turned up for protests by across | :19:44. | :19:49. | |
the country, demanding that their President resign. | :19:50. | :19:56. | |
The chief of the Turkish armed forces, along with their heads of | :19:56. | :19:59. | |
the navy, air, ground forces have amounts of their stepping down for | :19:59. | :20:03. | |
no posts. This rig -- follows growing | :20:03. | :20:07. | |
tensions over the arrests of military personnel over alleged | :20:07. | :20:13. | |
coup plots. The floods in Pakistan last year were the worst in the | :20:13. | :20:16. | |
country's history. Torrents of water tore through villages and | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
fields, destroying everything along the way. | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
Almost 2000 people were killed and more than 1.5 million homes | :20:24. | :20:28. | |
destroyed. 12 months on, at the start of the monsoon season, many | :20:28. | :20:33. | |
families are still struggling with little help from the authorities. | :20:33. | :20:38. | |
Our Correspondent has travelled to Charsadda in North West Pakistan - | :20:38. | :20:43. | |
one of the worst-affected areas. The rainy season is just starting | :20:43. | :20:51. | |
again. As harmless as the water looks, it is filled with dread. | :20:51. | :20:57. | |
It brought back the memory of images like these from last year - | :20:57. | :21:01. | |
some of the heaviest rains ever recorded weeks have a car across | :21:01. | :21:06. | |
Pakistan. Nearly 20 million people were affected. -- wreaked havoc | :21:06. | :21:11. | |
across Pakistan. This village was one of the first place as the flood | :21:11. | :21:14. | |
struck. People here had no warning of the disaster that was coming | :21:14. | :21:19. | |
their way. Villagers say a massive wall of water came through here | :21:19. | :21:24. | |
from that direction and hit the village. It destroyed a lot of the | :21:24. | :21:28. | |
houses and caused a lot of deaths. One year on, they still have not | :21:28. | :21:37. | |
find all of the bodies. This woman did manage to find her two teenage | :21:37. | :21:41. | |
daughters. But it took days. Their bodies had been carried more than | :21:41. | :21:44. | |
three kilometres away by the force of the waters. | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
Her family has been able to rebuild part of the House that was damaged, | :21:48. | :21:55. | |
but she remains consumed by grief. TRANSLATION: My life was shattered. | :21:55. | :22:05. | |
Without my two girls, it living has no meaning any more. In spite of a | :22:05. | :22:12. | |
massive aid mobilisation, many are still living in tents. This man and | :22:12. | :22:15. | |
his family lost their homes. In the desperation of saving | :22:15. | :22:22. | |
themselves, they lost all their belongings. They have been trying | :22:22. | :22:28. | |
to get their lives back ever since. TRANSLATION: The last aid we | :22:28. | :22:31. | |
received was six months ago when we got some basic food rations. Since | :22:31. | :22:36. | |
then, we have been relying on charity from local people. We there | :22:36. | :22:40. | |

Some rare photographs of their Hollywood days are on show. The | :23:16. | :23:19. | |
show at the National Portrait Gallery has original stills from | :23:19. | :23:23. | |
the movie studios themselves. Many of them have not been seen for | :23:23. | :23:33. | |
:23:33. | :23:36. | ||
decades. Elizabeth Taylor. Audrey Hepburn in funny face. And Rob | :23:36. | :23:41. | |
Hobson in a love will come back. Icons not only of the Hollywood | :23:41. | :23:46. | |
screen, but also of twentieth- century Western culture. These rare | :23:46. | :23:51. | |
photos depict a time before the paparazzi. They were distributed by | :23:51. | :23:55. | |
the studios themselves and were the only form of connection between | :23:55. | :24:05. | |
:24:05. | :24:08. | ||
stars and fans. One of by favourite shots in at the show is this one - | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
the filming of Gone With the wind. It is not a glamorous image. It is | :24:12. | :24:20. | |
a very dramatic moment. It shows her darker side. As she | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
also appeared with that in a Streetcar Named Desire. Hollywood | :24:24. | :24:27. | |
used these photos to publicise films they just sent to the market. | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
They had to be strong enough to encapsulate the film plot on also | :24:31. | :24:33. | |
good that you to go and watch the pictures. | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
This photograph of Charlie Chaplin was from the set of the 1921 film, | :24:38. | :24:47. | |
the kid. Here, the antics of Laurel and Hardy. The collection spans 40 | :24:47. | :24:54. | |
years from the 1920s to the 1960s. But the curators spent months | :24:54. | :25:00. | |
sifting through 3,000 prints for the exhibition. These are the | :25:00. | :25:04. | |
original photographs taken at the time. They are basically silver | :25:04. | :25:08. | |
prints, and we have made some special platinum prints for the | :25:08. | :25:11. | |
exhibition. Have photographs are looking the way the photographers | :25:11. | :25:16. | |
wanted them to look. We're so used to seeing the celebrity images many | :25:16. | :25:20. | |
generations from the original. It was easy to do because we were | :25:20. | :25:25. | |
looking for the best photographs, not the celebrity faces. Of we find | :25:25. | :25:29. | |
more often than not that the best subject took the best pictures. -- | :25:29. | :25:36. | |
also we find. I spoke to a friend of one of Hollywood's greatest | :25:36. | :25:44. | |
directors, Alfred Hitchcock. There is it very special person pictured | :25:44. | :25:49. | |
here that I knew best. I have never known somebody that I thought was a | :25:49. | :25:54. | |
junior SVRs in my life. But Alfred Hitchcock was. He had | :25:54. | :26:03. | |
such an original mind. -- a genius in my life. The images depict the | :26:03. | :26:08. | |
way they were and underline that great maxim of movie history - that | :26:08. | :26:18. | |
:26:18. | :26:19. | ||
it was not the screens that got bigger, the stars just got smaller. | :26:19. | :26:23. | |
A reminder of our main story - exactly one week after the bomb | :26:23. | :26:26. | |
attack and massive shooting in Norway, hundreds of people have | :26:26. | :26:31. | |
been attending a memorial service in Oslo to honour the 77 victims. | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
The man who admitted carrying out the attacks, Jonathan Vass is being | :26:34. | :26:39. | |
questioned by police for a second time. The funeral for the first of | :26:40. | :26:48. | |
the victims is taking place. - Mike Anders Behring Breivik. The country | :26:48. | :26:52. | |

For many of us today, it has been rather cloudy across southern area | :27:02. | :27:05. | |
In the North, we have had some decent sunny spells around and | :27:05. | :27:10. | |
tomorrow, there is a better chance of sunshine. It is looking fine as | :27:10. | :27:13. | |
we head into the weekend. That is courtesy of high pressure. It is | :27:13. | :27:18. | |
trying to keep this whether from today and it will last for the | :27:18. | :27:20. | |
first part of the weekend at least. For Saturday in the south-west, | :27:20. | :27:24. | |
still the remnants of the weather front we have had around today. | :27:24. | :27:29. | |
Perhaps a little damp at first, but big skies will brighten. North and | :27:29. | :27:33. | |
it looks like we will see some sunny spells developing. On the | :27:33. | :27:36. | |
North Sea coast as the breeze comes in from the sea, it will be a | :27:36. | :27:39. | |
little cooler. The southern counties will have a better chance | :27:39. | :27:44. | |
of seeing the brightness. Those temperatures will climb into the | :27:44. | :27:48. | |
low twenties. Across Wales, it will be pretty cloudy first thing on | :27:48. | :27:52. | |
Saturday morning. Through the day, the cloud should break up, | :27:53. | :27:55. | |
revealing that sunshine and temperatures climbing again into | :27:55. | :27:59. | |
the low twenties. For Northern Ireland, similar weather to the | :27:59. | :28:04. | |
last few days. Sunny spells, light winds and dry afternoon. A little | :28:04. | :28:09. | |
cooler and cloudier on northern Scotland. Inland, for Glasgow, it | :28:09. | :28:13. |
