Police in Cologne use water cannon against right-wing activists, | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
protesting against migrants following a wave of crime | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
A convoy due to deliver aid to thousands trapped in the Syrian | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
Back behind bars - one of Mexico's most notorious drug | :00:23. | :00:33. | |
barons is recaptured after six months on the run. | :00:34. | :00:38. | |
We meet the woman who's recreated a ground-breaking journey - | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
half way around the world in this vintage biplane. | :00:42. | :01:02. | |
Police in the German city of Cologne have fired tear gas and water cannon | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
to disperse supporters of the far-right Pegida movement. | :01:06. | :01:07. | |
The protest was organised following a wave | :01:08. | :01:09. | |
of attacks carried out in the city on New Year's Eve by gangs of men - | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
Pegida opposes Germany's open-door policy for refugees and had | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
organised this rally near Cologne's main railway station. | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
But it was faced by a much larger counter demonstration. | :01:23. | :01:24. | |
Our correspondent Anna Holligan was there. | :01:25. | :01:31. | |
Dramatic scenes as they please try to contain these protesters, it was | :01:32. | :01:37. | |
very tense, things have quietened down bow, here in Cologne. The riot | :01:38. | :01:43. | |
police have contained the hundreds of right wing the Guido Pella test | :01:44. | :01:50. | |
is inside Cologne station -- right wing Pegida protesters. They have | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
now been dispersed onto the platforms and they are the input | :01:57. | :02:03. | |
onto trains out of here. -- they are being put onto trains. There are | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
police dog said. This is an effort to make sure that there is no more | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
violence following those attacks on New Year's Eve -- there are police | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
dogs here. The police faced huge amounts of criticism for their | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
failure to protect the women who work here and who were assaulted -- | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
who were. Melanie Dittmer is a Pegida activist | :02:25. | :02:25. | |
who took part in the rally today - We were demonstrating on the street. | :02:26. | :02:41. | |
For the rights of German women on the streets. The police then started | :02:42. | :02:53. | |
to riot. They gave us some water. It was a very bad situation for us, the | :02:54. | :02:59. | |
demonstration stopped and we had to go back to the station and now the | :03:00. | :03:07. | |
event is over. Many people were getting hurt by the police they also | :03:08. | :03:13. | |
kicked old people on the ground. They had to gas in their eyes. The | :03:14. | :03:21. | |
group separated -- they had to gas. We were not in front of the | :03:22. | :03:28. | |
left-wing activists, but the police stopped the demonstration illegally. | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
We had a big problem today on the street. It is not democracy in | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
Germany. It is a policy. Aid agencies now say they expect | :03:39. | :03:41. | |
to start delivering food and medicine to a handful | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
of besieged Syrian towns and villages on Monday, | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
a day later than first hoped. They include Madaya - | :03:48. | :03:49. | |
a rebel-held town near the Lebanese border, where 40,000 | :03:50. | :03:55. | |
people are trapped - and where there have been reports | :03:56. | :03:56. | |
of people starving to death. The International Red Cross | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
and the UN World Food Programme are preparing convoys with enough | :04:00. | :04:02. | |
supplies to last a month. Jim Muir's been monitoring | :04:03. | :04:04. | |
developments from the Lebanese It is always a tricky business, | :04:05. | :04:15. | |
because when you take in aid in these conditions you have to cross | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
battle lines which have been there for months and people have been | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
killed on both sides and it's a tough thing to negotiate, and there | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
are different factions on the ground. Not just the government | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
against one scene, there is a group of different factions and the rebel | :04:30. | :04:37. | |
side and on the government side, and so it needs everybody to say yes, | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
not just at a political level, but all the way down the chain of | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
command to individual groups and adjust individual people on the | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
ground. Everybody has got to be in accord for this to happen, because | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
you cannot put the lives of aid workers and relief workers at risk | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
why throwing them into an unknown situation, so there is a lot of | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
negotiating and many lines have to be cleared. It seems there might | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
have been an insistence that rather than the delivery to Madaya going | :05:06. | :05:13. | |
ahead on Sunday as planned followed by a delivery to the two government | :05:14. | :05:16. | |
held villages on Monday, there might have been an insistence that that | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
should happen simultaneously and that is in effect what will happen | :05:21. | :05:28. | |
if they go ahead on Monday which seems to be the plan. | :05:29. | :05:30. | |
Ammar Ghanem is a Syrian-American doctor who grew up in | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
He's been in regular contact with friends and family trapped | :05:34. | :05:36. | |
there - and he joins us now from Indiana. | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
What are friends and family telling you about the conditions in Madaya? | :05:41. | :05:48. | |
The conditions are miserable and they are telling us that whatever | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
they are describing, it will be hard for us to imagine the situation. | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
They need food to eat, the children have no milk, no drink, and the | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
situation is miserable, and people are starting to eat grass and leaves | :06:04. | :06:09. | |
and eating cat meat and dog meat, the situation is measurable. The aid | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
convoys are not going to go into day as first type, they will go in on | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
Monday, but that will not come as good news to the people there. I | :06:20. | :06:26. | |
don't know where the delay is coming from. We want everybody to be safe, | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
and we know the roads have got to be clear. Madaya is on the border | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
between Lebanon and Syria, and that area is fully controlled by the | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
regime, and so there is only one side controlling that area. It is 30 | :06:44. | :06:52. | |
miles from Madaya to the Lebanese border, and every day we are seeing | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
more deaths and more suffering for the people there. A small charity | :06:56. | :07:01. | |
was able to get into Madaya, distributing small amounts of food, | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
why has it taken so long for the big aid organisations to get into | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
Madaya? That is what I don't understand. This is not a new issue, | :07:10. | :07:16. | |
it has been like this for the last six months, and I don't know where | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
the delay is coming from. The other thing we worry about, the | :07:21. | :07:28. | |
possibility of deliveries without a long-term solution, we are asking to | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
lift the siege completely, and we are asking them to allow | :07:34. | :07:38. | |
humanitarian aid and medicine and we are asking for freedom for people to | :07:39. | :07:45. | |
move in and out, and we are aware that they are lacking any medical | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
care to give them the care they need. We want a solution long-term, | :07:50. | :07:56. | |
not just Madaya, there are many other suffering areas. A suburb of | :07:57. | :08:05. | |
Damascus, there are many other areas of Syria. We are counting on the | :08:06. | :08:16. | |
international humanity. Thanks for joining us. | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
Six months after he escaped from a maximum security prison, | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
the notorious Mexican drug lord Joaquin Guzman - | :08:26. | :08:27. | |
known as "El Chapo" or "Shorty" has been recaptured. | :08:28. | :08:34. | |
But he's already escaped Mexican authorities twice. | :08:35. | :08:36. | |
So unsurprisingly there are questions about how they'll keep | :08:37. | :08:38. | |
El Chapo in their grasp this time - with speculation over possible | :08:39. | :08:41. | |
This will be a hot political potato, because this is the biggest and most | :08:42. | :08:56. | |
notorious criminal in Mexico and there will be an issue of | :08:57. | :08:58. | |
sovereignty, and they might want to try him in Mexico. The US requested | :08:59. | :09:05. | |
extradition for him to and half weeks before he disappeared last | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
July, and they might be keeping up the efforts to extradite him once | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
again, given that he faces charges in the US. The issue comes down to | :09:12. | :09:19. | |
security, he has disappeared from a high security prison, two different | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
ones, and last night he went back to the high security prison which she | :09:25. | :09:27. | |
disappeared from last alike, there are limited places where he can go | :09:28. | :09:32. | |
-- which he disappeared from last year. Given that he has escaped | :09:33. | :09:39. | |
before, what measures are being put in place so that the Mexican | :09:40. | :09:41. | |
authorities are not embarrassed again? Nobody has come forth to say | :09:42. | :09:49. | |
what extra measures, and ultimately he escaped from the top security | :09:50. | :09:53. | |
prison which is just outside Mexico City, he was in a secure wing, as | :09:54. | :09:58. | |
well. The issue is not so much about the security, but the collaboration | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
with people inside. Many people left and moved on, when he escaped last | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
July, and so the hope is the new people will be less corrupt, that is | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
the issue. Last alike, the government look stupid at best an | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
institutionally corrupt at worst, and very few people believe that he | :10:19. | :10:22. | |
could have built a tunnel a mile long without inside help and without | :10:23. | :10:26. | |
anybody knowing, and so the issue is the security within the jail, making | :10:27. | :10:30. | |
sure the people looking after him are on the side of the authorities | :10:31. | :10:36. | |
as opposed to on the side of Joaquin Guzman. | :10:37. | :10:39. | |
Tens of thousands of people in Poland have taken part in rallies | :10:40. | :10:42. | |
across 19 cities in protest against the new right-wing | :10:43. | :10:44. | |
government's moves to take control of public broadcasting. | :10:45. | :10:46. | |
A new law allowed the government to install new management teams | :10:47. | :10:49. | |
on Friday in the public TV and radio companies. | :10:50. | :10:51. | |
The reform has raised concern in Brussels | :10:52. | :10:53. | |
and the European Commission is to debate the rule of law | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
In Warsaw, 7000 -- several thousand people gathered, shouting freedom of | :10:57. | :11:19. | |
speech, and there were many other rallies across the country, some | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
were waving flags in response to the government's Eurosceptic stance, and | :11:25. | :11:27. | |
many are worried that the public television bubble gum a mouthpiece | :11:28. | :11:29. | |
for the government's right wing views. -- public television will | :11:30. | :11:38. | |
become a mouthpiece. TRANSLATION: We are worried about half-truths and | :11:39. | :11:46. | |
distorted stories and so on. The government has justified the move, | :11:47. | :11:49. | |
saying the public media was biased against it, and the Foreign Minister | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
said the broadcasters had been promoting leftist values, such as | :11:55. | :11:57. | |
cycling, vegetarianism and renewable energy. The governing Law and | :11:58. | :12:04. | |
Justice party says it won a mandate for rapid reform in the recent | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
elections, and it has moved swiftly to increase its control of state | :12:08. | :12:10. | |
institutions including the civil service. It has neutralised the | :12:11. | :12:16. | |
Constitutional Court to strike down legislation, and those reforms have | :12:17. | :12:19. | |
brought tens of thousands of people onto the streets on three occasions | :12:20. | :12:23. | |
in the past month. It has caused concern in Brussels, as well. | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
European Commission is starting a review of the rule of law in Poland, | :12:28. | :12:30. | |
which in theory at least could lead to sanctions. | :12:31. | :12:39. | |

Police in Ghana have arrested the boyfriend of former TV actress | :12:53. | :12:55. | |
Her body was found at their family home in on Tuesday, along | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
These are said to be pictures showing the arrest of Arthur | :13:00. | :13:15. | |
Simpson-Kent in a southern city in Ghana. | :13:16. | :13:17. | |
Scotland Yard would only say that they been made aware | :13:18. | :13:20. | |
of an arrest but could not discuss it further. | :13:21. | :13:22. | |
The bodies of Sian Blake and her two children were found | :13:23. | :13:28. | |
buried in her back garden in south east London after police sniffer | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
Police said all three had died as a result of head | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
43-year-old Sian Blake had appeared in over 50 episodes of Eastenders | :13:36. | :13:39. | |
Eight year old Zachary was the son of her former partner, | :13:40. | :13:51. | |

Police in Cologne have fired water canon, as rival groups stage | :14:02. | :14:05. | |
protests over a wave of sex attacks and robberies on New Year's Eve. | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
Aid agencies are preparing to deliver food supplies | :14:10. | :14:12. | |
to the besieged Syrian town of Madaya on Monday. | :14:13. | :14:20. | |
At least three foreign tourists have been injured by suspected militants | :14:21. | :14:23. | |
at a hotel in the Egyptian Red Sea resort of Hurghada. | :14:24. | :14:26. | |
It's the second attack on holidaymakers in Egypt | :14:27. | :14:28. | |
Last October, a plane carrying Russian tourists exploded over | :14:29. | :14:31. | |
Egypt's interior ministry says one of the attackers was shot | :14:32. | :14:36. | |
dead by police at the Bella Vista hotel in Hurghada. | :14:37. | :14:39. | |
Two Austrian guests and a Swedish national were among those | :14:40. | :14:43. | |
The BBC's James Reynolds reports from Hurghada. | :14:44. | :14:58. | |
These are the moments after the attack at the Bella Vista | :14:59. | :15:01. | |
Two men, each carrying knives, stormed into the hotel restaurant | :15:02. | :15:04. | |
and began attacking tourists at their tables. | :15:05. | :15:10. | |
This 27 year old man from Gothenberg told me | :15:11. | :15:13. | |
that he was stabbed in front of his father. | :15:14. | :15:31. | |
All of a sudden I can feel a man coming here and he is stabbing me | :15:32. | :15:35. | |
here, and I think he was aiming for my heart, but I put my hands up | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
so then he sliced me here on the left side of the neck. | :15:40. | :15:45. | |
I stand up and I'm in shock, so they yelled to us, | :15:46. | :15:48. | |
The attackers made it into the hotel lobby. | :15:49. | :15:54. | |
Minutes later security forces arrived and shot them. | :15:55. | :15:57. | |
This is the black Isis flag the assailants had with them. | :15:58. | :16:08. | |
Inside the restaurant, Sammie was left lying on the ground. | :16:09. | :16:10. | |
It is bleeding so much, so I'm thinking, I am going to die. | :16:11. | :16:19. | |
To the relief of his father, a passer-by drove him to hospital. | :16:20. | :16:24. | |
Sammie is now almost well enough to go back to Sweden. | :16:25. | :16:27. | |
He says that he will visit Egypt again. | :16:28. | :16:37. | |
After three months, 23 countries, and 13,000 miles, | :16:38. | :16:39. | |
a British pilot has landed in Sydney completing her journey from Britain | :16:40. | :16:42. | |
Tracey Curtis-Taylor was recreating the route taken by Amy Johnson, | :16:43. | :16:49. | |
the first woman to do the trip solo back in 1930. | :16:50. | :16:57. | |
Our Sydney Correspondent Jon Donnison was there when | :16:58. | :16:59. | |
The end of an aviation and see, half a world away, Tracey Curtis-Taylor, | :17:00. | :17:09. | |
self-declared bird in a biplane, back on terra firma -- aviation | :17:10. | :17:14. | |
odyssey. Articles include confidence, her first priority, a | :17:15. | :17:19. | |
drink -- after crossing three continents. I cannot believe this, | :17:20. | :17:28. | |
they said I was in parallel with a Boeing, and Air France, I thought, | :17:29. | :17:33. | |
awesome. In three months of flying, she covered more than 14,000 miles, | :17:34. | :17:37. | |
took in 23 countries and had to stop to refuel 50 times. She literally | :17:38. | :17:45. | |
saw the world, from the dead Sea in the Middle East, to the temples of | :17:46. | :17:51. | |
Asia. Tracey Tim on was emulating one of her heroines, it was 19 gait | :17:52. | :17:58. | |
1930 when Amy Johnson became the first woman to fly solo from the UK | :17:59. | :18:04. | |
to Australia -- Tracey Curtis-Taylor. The plane was not | :18:05. | :18:09. | |
dissimilar to one of those used years ago, this was built in 1942, | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
300 horsepower, and a cruising speed of just 90 mph, open cockpit and | :18:17. | :18:22. | |
stayed with the old stick and rather. -- steered. It will soon be | :18:23. | :18:30. | |
taking to this guy again, Tracey plans to fly across the United | :18:31. | :18:31. | |
States -- to the skies again. And now we have all the sport. We | :18:32. | :18:42. | |
will start with the third round of the FA Cup, the only non-league side | :18:43. | :18:46. | |
left in the competition made it into the fourth round, Eastleigh earned | :18:47. | :18:51. | |
themselves a replay after they drew 1-1 with Bolton. Wycombe Wanderers | :18:52. | :18:58. | |
drew 1-1 with Premier League opponents Aston Villa. If we had one | :18:59. | :19:03. | |
we would be in the next round, but the performance outweighed that, | :19:04. | :19:07. | |
even getting that goal, they deserved to be in the hat and we are | :19:08. | :19:12. | |
there as a team -- if we had won. Credit to them, at the end, we are | :19:13. | :19:18. | |
in the conference, they are in the Championship, three divisions above | :19:19. | :19:24. | |
are scum and they showed that, -- three divisions above, and they | :19:25. | :19:31. | |
showed that. Tactics don't win this, it is personnel and desire and heart | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
and the culture of being a Wycombe Wanderers player, nothing was left | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
on the bench, it was a thoroughly deserved draw, I thought. It was a | :19:40. | :19:47. | |
good day for some of the big teams, as well, defending holders Arsenal | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
beat Sunderland. Manchester United, far from their | :19:53. | :20:03. | |
beds, still managed to make it through, beating Sheffield United -- | :20:04. | :20:09. | |
best. We could have played better, especially in the first half, | :20:10. | :20:14. | |
because I don't think that we have moved the ball very quickly and you | :20:15. | :20:20. | |
need that when you play against an organisation with ten players behind | :20:21. | :20:26. | |
the ball. We did not do that. A few surprise results in the fourth round | :20:27. | :20:30. | |
of the Scottish cup, the big shock Annan Athletic from League 2 | :20:31. | :20:36. | |
knocking out premiership opponents Hamilton 4-1. | :20:37. | :20:52. | |
Motherwell were comfortable winners over Cove Rangers from the Highland | :20:53. | :20:58. | |
League. Singer Dean Zidane has taken charge | :20:59. | :21:09. | |
of his first match since being appointed the first-team coach at | :21:10. | :21:19. | |
Real Madrid and he has overseen a comfortable victory, largely thanks | :21:20. | :21:25. | |
to a Gareth Bale hat-trick. That result leaves them in third place in | :21:26. | :21:31. | |
La Liga. European Rugby Championship cup matches postponed after the | :21:32. | :21:34. | |
Paris attacks are being held this weekend with two in the French | :21:35. | :21:40. | |
capital. Glasgow were well beaten by Racing 92 two, and in the other | :21:41. | :21:46. | |
game, Stade Francais welcomed monster and the home side were | :21:47. | :21:53. | |
victorious. -- monster. There was last-minute drama in the match | :21:54. | :22:00. | |
involving Leicester and Northampton, the home side just edging it. | :22:01. | :22:06. | |
Saracens are still top, even though they lost, and Exeter, in second, | :22:07. | :22:11. | |
won. Mo Farah has failed to win his first race of the year, he was | :22:12. | :22:15. | |
competing over eight kilometres in Edinburgh. It was a cross-country | :22:16. | :22:22. | |
event. He finished second behind the American Gareth Heath. Mo Farah was | :22:23. | :22:30. | |
hampered by the deep mud. That is all the sport for now. | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
It's not unusual to hear calls for the gender pay gap to be closed, | :22:35. | :22:37. | |
but it's normally women who are getting less money than men. | :22:38. | :22:40. | |
But in the British fashion industry - female models can often earn | :22:41. | :22:44. | |
double the amount that male models do. | :22:45. | :22:49. | |
When it comes to the talk about equal pay in the workplace, it is | :22:50. | :22:55. | |
normally about women being paid less than a man. But in the world of | :22:56. | :23:03. | |
fashion, the very opposite is true. I think it will take people standing | :23:04. | :23:12. | |
up to say the rates are different, but the men are doing the same | :23:13. | :23:19. | |
thing, to do these shoots, although the men do not take as long to get | :23:20. | :23:23. | |
ready, but the models will be called to the shoot at the same time and it | :23:24. | :23:29. | |
will be the same usage for the male model and the female model so there | :23:30. | :23:32. | |
is no reason why it they should be paid less. Female models entering | :23:33. | :23:36. | |
the industry can make more than double what a male model can. Mason | :23:37. | :23:42. | |
has just been modelling for a year, and he has found this out. Some of | :23:43. | :23:49. | |
those I've spoken to have been annoyed about it, but the majority | :23:50. | :23:55. | |
have been, we get this much, and we say, we only get this much were | :23:56. | :23:58. | |
doing the same, and theirs is like 25% more. Roughly around that | :23:59. | :24:06. | |
figure. Hundreds of male models will be strutting their stuff at the | :24:07. | :24:12. | |
Fashion Week this weekend, but this does extend to catalogues and TV | :24:13. | :24:18. | |
adverts and magazine advertising. It does not matter if you are a new | :24:19. | :24:28. | |
face on the runway or you are a name at the top of the game. No model has | :24:29. | :24:33. | |
ever addressed the issue, often you are passive and you are happy to be | :24:34. | :24:37. | |
paid to be yourself, anyway. It was not get to the point where someone | :24:38. | :24:41. | |
put their foot down. I think I might do that. We need a quality. If | :24:42. | :24:46. | |
people banded together there will be a change. The British fashion | :24:47. | :24:51. | |
Council says it provides counselling for model rates to design is based | :24:52. | :24:55. | |
on the size of their business, and even though it is not get involved | :24:56. | :24:59. | |
and the bookings process it does encourage everyone in the business | :25:00. | :25:06. | |
to pay everyone the same. High-profile models good make a | :25:07. | :25:12. | |
stand -- could make a stand against equal pay. Slowly but surely, change | :25:13. | :25:19. | |
is coming, the male fashion industry is worth ?14 billion a year, and as | :25:20. | :25:25. | |
more men go out and buy clothes the industry should eventually catch up | :25:26. | :25:29. | |
with the ladies in terms of equal pay. | :25:30. | :25:36. | |
Star Wars The Force Awakens has already broken box office records, | :25:37. | :25:45. | |
and I can add China to the list, it sold 33 million million tickets, the | :25:46. | :25:51. | |
biggest ever opening day in China, the second largest film market. That | :25:52. | :25:58. | |
is it from the programme. Thanks for being with | :25:59. | :25:59. |
