I'm James Coomarasamy. The headlines. | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
Rescue workers in southern Colombia are searching through tonnes of mud | :00:10. | :00:11. | |
and debris for survivors of a huge landslide. | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
At least 200 people have been killed. | :00:15. | :00:20. | |
20 people are drugged and murdered at a Sufi shrine in Pakistan. | :00:21. | :00:23. | |
Theresa May tries to reassure the people of Gibraltar saying | :00:24. | :00:28. | |
Britain will work with the territory to get the best | :00:29. | :00:30. | |
And how one photographer has tried to change the way the world sees | :00:31. | :00:37. | |

Rescue teams in Colombia are trying to find more than 300 people | :00:58. | :01:06. | |
-- rescue teams in Colombia are continuing to search through tonnes | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
of Monday before anyone who survived devastating mudslides in the Amazon | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
basin. At least 200 people have been killed but with hundreds of others | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
injured or missing, the Colombian president says it is impossible to | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
know what the eventual death toll will be. The torrent of mud engulfed | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
the town of Mocoa, where rescue efforts are being hampered by bad | :01:24. | :01:25. | |
weather. Richard Lister reports. When the rolling wall | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
of water and debris rushed through here on Friday night, | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
it swept away houses, The painstaking search | :01:34. | :01:35. | |
for survivors is continuing. Rescue workers moving quietly | :01:36. | :01:51. | |
through flattened neighbourhoods hoping for signs of life | :01:52. | :01:52. | |
in the wreckage. With every hour that passes, | :01:53. | :01:55. | |
hopes of finding more Within hours of the deluge, | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
message boards went up listing Many of those unaccounted | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
for are children. "We are searching for a baby", | :02:07. | :02:14. | |
she says, "a little baby, "I hope somebody has her", he says, | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
"she's called Luisa". Closest to the river, | :02:18. | :02:29. | |
the streets are now boulder fields, full of people trying to retrieve | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
what they can of their lives. The shock of this disaster | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
is still sinking in. The rains that caused this flood | :02:38. | :02:43. | |
were unusually heavy, but deforestation upstream played | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
a part, too. This town of 40,000 people is still | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
without power or fresh water. The homeless need housing, | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
the infrastructure needs to be Deep in the Amazon Basin, | :02:57. | :02:59. | |
Mocoa was hard to reach before. Now, with roads and bridges washed | :03:00. | :03:05. | |
away, the challenge is even greater. Earlier, I spoke with | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
Dimitri O'Donnell, a journalist in Bogota who's following this | :03:12. | :03:19. | |
story, and who gave me this update. President sandals has returned to | :03:20. | :03:30. | |
Mocoa in the last couple of hours and released the latest official | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
figures from the grief stricken region, saying 207 people are now | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
confirmed dead. They have identified 85 bodies, 43 of whom are children. | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
There are still more than 300 people missing and 400 people are reported | :03:43. | :03:50. | |
injured. There's a big team of estate agencies in Mocoa right now | :03:51. | :03:56. | |
-- state agencies. 1200 at the last count including the army, police, | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
Navy, civil defence and the Red Cross and they are doing all they | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
can to coordinate their efforts. For example, the armies have been based | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
at different road junctions around Mocoa, trying to rebuild them as | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
quickly as they can to speed up the access of humanitarian supplies to | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
the region which was delayed in the early hours of the search and rescue | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
operation. It has been described as the worst that will disaster in | :04:20. | :04:22. | |
Colombia in decades, certainly the worst since 1994 and overnight, the | :04:23. | :04:30. | |
army and the air force took out 22 people, airlifting them to hospital, | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
13 of whom were children who were said to be in a very serious | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
condition and the operation are still ongoing today. Some individual | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
stories coming out from the region as well? That's right, as the rescue | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
operation continues, stories have been emerging of the desperate | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
lengths some survivors are going to to locate their loved ones. One of | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
them is a mother of three, Maria, and she has been beamed all over | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
Colombia, on TV, radio, people talking about her on Twitter. She | :04:59. | :05:02. | |
was not at home in her village on Mocoa on Friday night when the | :05:03. | :05:06. | |
avalanche of mud and water struck but her three daughters were. They | :05:07. | :05:12. | |
are aged four, 13 and 22 and the eldest was pregnant. Everything was | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
wiped away in the village, one of the five destroyed villages, and | :05:17. | :05:19. | |
Maria has not been able to find her three daughters since Friday night. | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
Images of her desperately searching through the rubble in muddy clothes | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
have been shown all over Colombia. They have really touched the hearts | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
of Colombians. She has been giving interviews, saying she's not going | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
to give up until she finds her girls. She says they were all she | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
had and they had big dreams and she is going to stay on site until she | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
locates them. That is just one story of the many people that are still | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
looking for loved ones in Mocoa this afternoon. | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
Police in Pakistan say at least 20 people have been killed | :05:50. | :05:52. | |
by the custodian of a Sufi shrine close to the Pakistani city of | :05:53. | :05:55. | |
The victims, who are said to have been his spiritual disciples, | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
include five members of the same family. | :06:01. | :06:02. | |
With the details, here's the BBC's Secunder Kermani in Islamabad. | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
A place of worship turns to a scene of horror. | :06:09. | :06:11. | |
Followers of a local saint were reportedly drugged, | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
20 bodies were brought to hospital late last night, | :06:16. | :06:22. | |
after four people managed to escape and raised the alarm. | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
The killer is believed to be this man, Abdul Waheed, | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
the custodian of the shrine, arrested by police along | :06:30. | :06:37. | |
TRANSLATION: The three accused, who are under arrest, | :06:38. | :06:41. | |
As they kept arriving, they were torturing | :06:42. | :06:48. | |
In Islamabad, mourners gathered to pay their respects at the home | :06:49. | :06:55. | |
of one of the victims, Asif Bid Ali. | :06:56. | :07:02. | |
The shrine where this attack happened was | :07:03. | :07:03. | |
The suspected killer was one of his followers. | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
TRANSLATION: Waheed used to take care of this shrine, | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
There had been reports that devotees at this shrine would be regularly | :07:10. | :07:20. | |
In Pakistan, some spiritual leaders have been known | :07:21. | :07:24. | |
to abuse their position but this mass killing has | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
Secunder Kermani, BBC News, Islamabad. | :07:28. | :07:33. | |
The Iraqi army is making progress in its fight against the so-called | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
Islamic State group in its one-time stronghold of Mosul. | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
As the battle continues in the residential parts of western | :07:42. | :07:44. | |
Mosul, one of the challenges is stopping the group's car bombs. | :07:45. | :07:47. | |
The BBC's defence correspondent Jonathan Beale sent this | :07:48. | :07:49. | |
They are just building barricades on these streets which have recently | :07:50. | :07:56. | |
been liberated from so-called Islamic State, to prevent car bombs. | :07:57. | :08:02. | |
There is one that didn't go off round the corner. | :08:03. | :08:04. | |
They managed to kill the driver before he detonated it. | :08:05. | :08:06. | |
This is just a few hundred yards from the front line. | :08:07. | :08:10. | |
We can occasionally hear gunfire from so-called Islamic State. | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
The streets are wide enough to drive armoured vehicles up, | :08:16. | :08:23. | |
trucks and the like, but when they get into the old city | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
itself, there are narrow alleyways where they won't be able to drive | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
armoured vehicles at all and the fighting | :08:32. | :08:33. | |
there is going to be much, much harder. | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
The Serbian Prime Minister, Aleksandar Vucic, is projected | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
to have won a clear victory in the country's | :08:42. | :08:44. | |
If early results and exit polls are confirmed, | :08:45. | :08:50. | |
Mr Vucic will have averted a second round of voting by | :08:51. | :08:52. | |
The post of president has been largely ceremonial, | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
but analysts believe it would become more influential under | :08:57. | :08:58. | |
Mr Vucic, who's been Prime Minister since 2014. | :08:59. | :09:01. | |
People in Ecuador are voting to chose a successor | :09:02. | :09:03. | |
to President Rafael Correa, who's leaving office | :09:04. | :09:06. | |
The left-wing candidate Lenin Moreno narrowly failed to win | :09:07. | :09:12. | |
outright in the first round, but his opponent Guillermo Lasso has | :09:13. | :09:14. | |
the backing of other opposition candidates. | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
Firefighters in Dubai battled for hours to contain a blaze | :09:19. | :09:20. | |
at a 60-storey tower that was under construction. | :09:21. | :09:23. | |
Roads in the area, which is popular with tourists, were closed. | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
The authorities say no-one was injured. | :09:28. | :09:30. | |
Several tall buildings in Dubai have caught fire in recent years, | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
leading to stricter safety regulations for new structures. | :09:35. | :09:37. | |
A Brazilian reconnaissance aircraft has joined the Uruguayan navy | :09:38. | :09:41. | |
and several merchant ships in the search for 22 missing sailors | :09:42. | :09:45. | |
The sailors were on board a South Korean cargo vessel | :09:46. | :09:51. | |
Two Filipino crew members have been rescued from a life raft. | :09:52. | :10:03. | |
The Prime Minister Theresa May has told the people | :10:04. | :10:05. | |
of Gibraltar that the UK would "never" allow it to slip | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
from British control against their will. | :10:09. | :10:09. | |
In a telephone call aimed at reassuring Gibraltar | :10:10. | :10:15. | |
about its future after Brexit, Mrs May said Britain | :10:16. | :10:17. | |
Here's our political correspondent Iain Watson. | :10:18. | :10:20. | |
Legend has it, when the Barbary apes leave Gibraltar, | :10:21. | :10:22. | |
Well, they are still here, but the 30,000 human residents | :10:23. | :10:29. | |
of the Rock who want to remain British are worried that the Spanish | :10:30. | :10:33. | |
government could soon have more say over their lives. | :10:34. | :10:37. | |
The EU has said that after Brexit, London will have | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
to talk directly to Spain about the territory's future. | :10:41. | :10:43. | |
A former Conservative leader said the UK's commitment to Gibraltar | :10:44. | :10:46. | |
would be no different than its commitment | :10:47. | :10:48. | |
Another woman Prime Minister sent a task force halfway | :10:49. | :10:54. | |
across the world to protect another small group of British | :10:55. | :10:58. | |
people against another Spanish-speaking country. | :10:59. | :11:01. | |
Four days after triggering the Brexit process, there is no | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
serious talk of conflict with a Nato ally. | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
In fact, Spain appears more interested in talking about trade | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
than seizing territory, perhaps raising questions | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
about Gibraltar's low tax regime and its policing | :11:17. | :11:18. | |
The BBC has been told that Gibraltar did ask Downing Street specifically | :11:19. | :11:24. | |
to mention its interests in a letter the Prime Minister sent | :11:25. | :11:27. | |
to the European Union to trigger the whole Brexit process. | :11:28. | :11:30. | |
Well, of course, we know that did not happen. | :11:31. | :11:32. | |
But today, Theresa May got on the telephone to the most senior | :11:33. | :11:35. | |
politician in Gibraltar and pledged her steadfast support, | :11:36. | :11:42. | |
not just for the Rock's sovereignty, but also for its economy. | :11:43. | :11:45. | |
And the Chief Minister of Gibraltar seemed reassured. | :11:46. | :11:49. | |
When the time comes, we will be making the right | :11:50. | :11:52. | |
decisions with the Prime Minister leading us in those negotiations, | :11:53. | :11:54. | |
which will be in the interests of the people of Gibraltar | :11:55. | :11:57. | |
But Labour say the Brexit process still poses | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
How will the deal that we come to with the European Union affect | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
So to what extent will they have access to the single market | :12:07. | :12:12. | |
and the customs union, because their economy | :12:13. | :12:14. | |
could be strangled if the negotiations go wrong. | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
This is just the start of the process of leaving | :12:19. | :12:20. | |
Downing Street has moved to defuse any row with Gibraltar, | :12:21. | :12:24. | |
but difficult negotiations with the European Union | :12:25. | :12:27. | |
Our correspondent Tom Burridge is in Gibraltar, and he gave | :12:28. | :12:36. | |
us his thoughts as to how people there are reacting to the debate. | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
People are worried here in Gibraltar. | :12:41. | :12:43. | |
I do not think Brexit really impacts the debate over | :12:44. | :12:46. | |
Britain and Spain will probably never agree on that. | :12:47. | :13:00. | |
What this claim by the European Union, that Spain can decide whether | :13:01. | :13:05. | |
or not a deal between Britain and the EU in a future will apply to | :13:06. | :13:11. | |
Gibraltar or not, the European Union seems to be suggesting that | :13:12. | :13:14. | |
Gibraltar is a bargaining chip in the wider Brexit negotiation and | :13:15. | :13:19. | |
that really puts in jeopardy the whole Gibraltar way of life, if you | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
like. The economy here, the relationship Gibraltar has enjoyed | :13:25. | :13:26. | |
as an overseas territory with the rest of the European Union, which | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
has been distinct from the rest of the UK. So as you say, nothing new, | :13:31. | :13:36. | |
in a sense, this argument, but what about the sabre rattling we have | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
heard from Lord Howe and the former leader of the Conservative Party? | :13:42. | :13:45. | |
Where people at that? I've covered Gibraltar for a few years. Basically | :13:46. | :13:52. | |
the rhetoric coming from Madrid and the threats, the criticism, the | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
claims of questioning Gibraltar's British sovereignty, are | :13:58. | :14:00. | |
predictable. People here are used at that. And they are also used to the | :14:01. | :14:04. | |
British government sticking up for them. The language, of course, | :14:05. | :14:08. | |
coming out of some British politicians today is probably a | :14:09. | :14:12. | |
notch up, but that is not you know, surprising, that kind of rhetoric. I | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
think what is interesting now is how much Gibraltar is a part of that | :14:17. | :14:22. | |
wider Brexit negotiation between Brussels and London. The border we | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
are on, there's spin traffic flowing out of Gibraltar into Spain freely | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
this evening. That is normally the case and that is all crucial for | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
Gibraltar's economy. It is one of the most affluent places, GDP per | :14:36. | :14:41. | |
capita, in the world. And if Gibraltar wants that to continue, | :14:42. | :14:45. | |
then it needs to have a favourable relationship with the European Union | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
wants Britain exits. And it's Spain has that leveraged and can say, | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
"Actually, we are not happy that the wider deal Britain has got applies | :14:55. | :14:59. | |
to Gibraltar", well, that makes things here very complicated and the | :15:00. | :15:02. | |
wider Brexit negotiation between Britain and the EU even harder. | :15:03. | :15:05. | |
Still to come: We'll have all the sports news for you - | :15:06. | :15:10. | |
including the highlights of this year's Oxford and | :15:11. | :15:12. | |
The accident that happened here was of the sort that can add was Prydie | :15:13. | :15:27. | |
is a meltdown. In this case, precautions worked but not quite | :15:28. | :15:29. | |
well enough to prevent some old fears about the safety features of | :15:30. | :15:31. | |
these stations from resurfacing. The Republic of Ireland has become | :15:32. | :15:49. | |
the first country in the world to ban smoking in workplaces, from | :15:50. | :15:52. | |
today, anyone lighting up inside will face a heavy fine. The | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
president was on his way out of the Washington Hilton Hotel where he had | :15:57. | :16:00. | |
been addressing a trade union conference. The small crowd outside | :16:01. | :16:04. | |
included his assailant. It has become a symbol of Paris, 100 years | :16:05. | :16:08. | |
ago, many Brazilians wished it had never been built. The Eiffel Tower's | :16:09. | :16:12. | |

of mud and water that's obliterated 20 people have been murdered and | :16:33. | :16:42. | |
others wounded at a Sufi shrine in Pakistan's Punjab province. | :16:43. | :16:44. | |
Russian police have arrested at least 40 protesters, | :16:45. | :16:47. | |
following another anti-corruption demonstration in Moscow. | :16:48. | :16:50. | |
The authorities say the latest protests were unsanctioned, | :16:51. | :16:52. | |
and that they had warned people to stay away. | :16:53. | :16:58. | |
More than 1,000 people were detained in Russia a week ago | :16:59. | :17:01. | |
after larger-scale protests across the country. | :17:02. | :17:02. | |
From Moscow, Sarah Rainsford reports. | :17:03. | :17:06. | |
The latest protest was small, but the police response was heavy. | :17:07. | :17:09. | |
Officers began making arrests as soon as the crowds moved down | :17:10. | :17:12. | |
Moscow's main street towards the Kremlin. | :17:13. | :17:14. | |
Others were detained near Red Square. | :17:15. | :17:18. | |
This was nothing like the scale of last weekend's mass | :17:19. | :17:21. | |
rallies that took place across Russia against corruption. | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
But the fact so many people were arrested, | :17:27. | :17:28. | |
at even a minor event, suggests concerns that | :17:29. | :17:33. | |
TRANSLATION: Roughly speaking, the scale | :17:34. | :17:42. | |
The issue is that people have questions and they are not | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
If there were any questions over the protests the other week, | :17:47. | :17:50. | |
whether it was related to Navalny and so on, now it is obvious | :17:51. | :17:53. | |
the problem has escalated, because there are so many | :17:54. | :17:55. | |
Police had issued warnings ahead of time that this rally was not | :17:56. | :17:59. | |
A criminal investigation has been opened, targeting | :18:00. | :18:07. | |
whoever posted information about the protest online. | :18:08. | :18:08. | |
If they are found, they face prosecution for inciting | :18:09. | :18:11. | |

title and first since 2006. The Swiss was a 6-3, 6-4 winner, | :18:44. | :18:46. | |
and it's the third final this year where Federer has beaten | :18:47. | :18:51. | |
the Spaniard, having won the Australian Open | :18:52. | :18:52. | |
and Indian Wells Masters For Nadal it's also a fifth loss | :18:53. | :18:54. | |
in the final of this event, while the 35-year-old Federer, | :18:55. | :18:58. | |
who returned at the start of this year after a long-term injury | :18:59. | :19:03. | |
lay-off, will move to fourth when the latest | :19:04. | :19:05. | |
rankings are released. To the English Premier League | :19:06. | :19:06. | |
where Arsenal missed the chance to move to fifth after their 2-2 | :19:07. | :19:09. | |
draw with Manchester A win would've taken Arsenal manager | :19:10. | :19:11. | |
Arsene Wenger's side, who are currently sixth, | :19:12. | :19:16. | |
ahead of Manchester United but a draw may have sufficed | :19:17. | :19:17. | |
in the end after Leroy Sane gave City the lead after | :19:18. | :19:21. | |
just four minutes. Theo Walcott equalised | :19:22. | :19:23. | |
in the 42nd minute before Sergio Aguero handed his side | :19:24. | :19:26. | |
a 2-1 half-time advantage. Shkodran Mustafi scored the only | :19:27. | :19:30. | |
goal of the second half but there was controversy late | :19:31. | :19:34. | |
on when Nacho Monreal appeared to handle the ball in the penalty | :19:35. | :19:36. | |
area which wasn't given. So Pep Guardiola's side remain | :19:37. | :19:39. | |
fourth in the table. Monreal said he touched the ball | :19:40. | :19:52. | |
with his hand, yeah? Yeah, but he said to me in England, that kind of | :19:53. | :19:56. | |
situation is normal. I said to the referee, what did I say? I said to | :19:57. | :20:00. | |
the referee, that's all. I said to the referee he saw what happened. At | :20:01. | :20:08. | |
Tottenham, I said before, I don't think I'm here to talk with the | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
referees, but given what Monreal said... | :20:12. | :20:12. | |
It was a game where we were not completely at our best | :20:13. | :20:15. | |
on the fluency and the technical front because we were under | :20:16. | :20:17. | |
pressure, but we showed strong mental resources and we refused | :20:18. | :20:21. | |
to lie down against a team who is always dangerous going forward. | :20:22. | :20:25. | |
At the end of the day we got a point that will help us, | :20:26. | :20:28. | |
even if mathematically it is not the best solution for both teams. | :20:29. | :20:34. | |
But for us it was important today as well. | :20:35. | :20:40. | |
The early kick-off was the relegation battle | :20:41. | :20:46. | |
between Swansea and Middlesbrough which ended in a 0-0 draw. | :20:47. | :20:49. | |
Boro desperately needed the win and they missed the best chance | :20:50. | :20:51. | |
of the game at the end through Rudi Gestede, | :20:52. | :20:54. | |
who put his header wide, meaning they remain in the relegation zone, | :20:55. | :20:56. | |

beating Cambridge by just over After defeat last year, | :21:17. | :21:22. | |
Oxford pulled away in the opening couple of minutes, and whilst | :21:23. | :21:25. | |
Cambridge never lost touch, It's Oxford's fourth win | :21:26. | :21:27. | |
in the last five years, Meanwhile, Cambridge | :21:28. | :21:31. | |
won the women's race, It was effectively over as a contest | :21:32. | :21:43. | |
after the very first stroke when Oxford's Rebecca Esseltein | :21:44. | :21:49. | |
got her oar stuck, and as she battled to regain control, | :21:50. | :21:52. | |
Cambridge sprinted off It's the first time since 2012 | :21:53. | :21:53. | |
that the Light Blues have won the race, and comes a year | :21:54. | :21:58. | |
after they almost sank. And in the first women's | :21:59. | :22:01. | |

is worth a thousand words. And the Australian-born photographer | :22:24. | :22:27. | |
Anne Geddes has changed the way the world sees babies and childbirth | :22:28. | :22:29. | |
through her images. Her new book, Small World, | :22:30. | :22:32. | |
looks at her 30-year career. I'd worked with the same | :22:33. | :22:39. | |
props and styling person Dawn McGowan, my props person, | :22:40. | :22:56. | |
my partner in crime, we call each other, | :22:57. | :23:03. | |
because we've worked together for so long, | :23:04. | :23:06. | |
we kind of read each other's minds and know what we both | :23:07. | :23:09. | |
bring to a scenario. The peas that surround | :23:10. | :23:11. | |
the babies are real peas. You have taken a lot | :23:12. | :23:17. | |
of pictures of pregnant women. It is obviously the | :23:18. | :23:20. | |
beginning of the babies. My whole philosophy around my work | :23:21. | :23:26. | |
is the importance of babies, what they bring to families, | :23:27. | :23:29. | |
the miracle of conception I had two babies myself and I've | :23:30. | :23:33. | |
photographed a lot of pregnant women throughout my career and tried | :23:34. | :23:41. | |
to also portray with the newborns what it must be like in those | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
weeks before birth, how the babies are curled up | :23:47. | :23:51. | |
as they would have been. A lot of the pregnant images in this | :23:52. | :24:01. | |
new book, Small World, I really see the connection | :24:02. | :24:04. | |
with nature and pregnant women. And so I've styled a lot of these | :24:05. | :24:10. | |
women in line with elements of nature that bring forth | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
a new life. What I was trying to say to people | :24:15. | :24:18. | |
is it is around you all the time, it's in your backyard, | :24:19. | :24:22. | |
and we take so much My creative world is very much tied | :24:23. | :24:24. | |
up with nature itself. From someone who takes photographs | :24:25. | :24:40. | |
to an artist who made a famous painting based on a photograph and a | :24:41. | :24:44. | |
painting by Andy Warhol of Chairman Mao has been sold at auction in Hong | :24:45. | :24:48. | |
Kong. Based on a photo from the Little red book, it is among the | :24:49. | :24:52. | |
most famous images of the 20th century. It sold for just under 100 | :24:53. | :24:56. | |
million Hong Kong dollars, about $12.7 million. The painting is in | :24:57. | :25:02. | |
the same style as Andy Warhol's pop Art portraits of Marilyn Monroe. | :25:03. | :25:05. | |
Now for something you don't see every day. | :25:06. | :25:09. | |
This a 44-metre high factory chimney in the city | :25:10. | :25:11. | |
Here, it's being moved from one site to another. | :25:12. | :25:14. | |
We've speeded up the process for you because the distance of 450 | :25:15. | :25:17. | |
metres took the chimney on wheels four-and-a-half hours to complete. | :25:18. | :25:20. | |
The structure is seen as an icon of the city and is part | :25:21. | :25:23. | |
The company sees the chimney as an important industrial heritage site. | :25:24. | :25:34. | |
The top story, authorities in Colombia say 207 people are known to | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
have died in a city of Mocoa, with scores more still missing, many of | :25:40. | :25:43. | |
them children. Rescue teams are continuing to comb through tonnes of | :25:44. | :25:47. | |
mud and Abery in their search for survivors. The Colombian president | :25:48. | :25:49. | |
says it is impossible to know what the eventual death toll will be. | :25:50. | :25:57. | |

Good evening. It has not been too bad a weekend for most | :26:10. | :26:11. |
