Storm Harvey continues to cause havoc in Texas. | :00:00. | :00:19. | |
As authorities warn of life-threatening flooding | :00:20. | :00:20. | |
30,000 people are forced out of their homes. | :00:21. | :00:23. | |
We have a two-storey home and on the first floor, | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
it's up to here and all the furniture is just floating. | :00:27. | :00:28. | |
A convicted killer who may have hidden as many as 90 murders. | :00:29. | :00:32. | |
Could this man be the most deadly serial killer | :00:33. | :00:34. | |
And plastic no more in Kenya where a new ban on plastic bags | :00:35. | :00:46. | |
could leave you facing a huge fine or even a prison sentence. | :00:47. | :00:57. | |
Hello and welcome to World News Today. | :00:58. | :01:05. | |
The taxes is expected to worsen and spread as waters continue to rise | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
from tropical storm Harvey. The area's expected to have received | :01:11. | :01:12. | |
a year's rainfall within a week. Shops and businesses are shut and | :01:13. | :01:19. | |
travel is all but impossible with roads and airports closed. So far, | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
450,000 people need emergency assistance | :01:23. | :01:24. | |
and around 30,000 are in temporary shelters. | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
And the flooding hasn't even reached its peak, | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
with estimates that rivers could reach 14 feet | :01:32. | :01:33. | |
We'll have coverage from across the state starting | :01:34. | :01:42. | |
first with our correspondent Laura Trevelyan in La Grange, | :01:43. | :01:44. | |
Welcomer to a small Texan town of 5000 people and 300 forms have been | :01:45. | :02:03. | |
evacuated here because as you can see behind me, there is extensive, | :02:04. | :02:10. | |
catastrophic, devastating flooding. The Colorado River- we are inland by | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
the way that has broken its banks and it is peaking now at 55 feet. | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
Normally the river level is about eight feet. Flooding level is 24 | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
feet store more than double the usual flooding level of the Colorado | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
River is what we are seeing here and the impact has just been ruinous on | :02:28. | :02:33. | |
homes, on businesses. The people who are selling some of these historic, | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
beautiful homes in this tiny Texan town are seeing them completely | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
devastated by the flooding. We are seeing businesses submerged. We have | :02:45. | :02:47. | |
spoken to business owners who do not have flood insurance and do not know | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
how they are going to pick themselves up. The positive aspect | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
about being here in the small Texan town is that everybody has rallied | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
round. The Baptist Church has been where people have been evacuated to | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
and there is a very strong sense of a community that is resilient and | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
determined to do all it can to recover from this. My colleague, | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
James Cook, has been in the hardest hit area in Houston. Here is his | :03:12. | :03:12. | |
report. Three days after Hurricane Harvey | :03:13. | :03:13. | |
smashed into their state, Texans are still struggling | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
in its wake. they called for help all night, | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
but no one answered. In the end, it wasn't police | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
or fire fighters who came to the rescue, but some | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
friends with a boat. They say they called 911 | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
and there was no answer Well, we just happened | :03:32. | :03:33. | |
to be here and we had a boat And that's what's happening | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
all over Texas, isn't it? Texans have formed their own armada | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
offering a helping hand You must be grateful | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
to these guys here. Grateful to actually the | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
whole community, seeing Houston being together, helping each other | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
out, that's really touching and I was telling my mom yesterday | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
I wish I actually had In moments like this, | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
we all need it. We didn't expect this | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
to happen at all. Have you ever seen | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
anything like this before? This neighbourhood | :04:12. | :04:12. | |
really doesn't flood, Well, there is frenetic | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
activity here as boats This little vessel alone has rescued | :04:16. | :04:23. | |
30 people so far and the situation Even at 75 years old, | :04:24. | :04:30. | |
this is something For a time, this picture seemed | :04:31. | :04:37. | |
to sum up the desperation. It's La Vita Bella care home, | :04:38. | :04:44. | |
and the owner's daughter She said within ten to 15 minutes, | :04:45. | :04:46. | |
the water went from ankle high to waist high, so immediately, | :04:47. | :04:53. | |
they were under water and floating. The National Guard saw the photo | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
and everyone was led to safety. Many more are still waiting | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
to be rescued though. In desperation, all they can do | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
is cling on and call for help. We have a two-storey home, | :05:07. | :05:10. | |
and on the first floor, And all the furniture's | :05:11. | :05:13. | |
just floating. In Houston alone, more than | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
20 helicopters are flying rescue missions, but pulling people | :05:19. | :05:26. | |
from the floods is delicate And the city's troubles | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
may yet get worse. Parts of those regions | :05:30. | :05:35. | |
will continue to receive incredibly heavy rain that will | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
lead to even more flooding Texas is now saturated | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
and it is struggling. More than 2000 people | :05:44. | :05:50. | |
have been rescued. Stacy Lamb the US, response director | :05:51. | :05:52. | |
at charity Convoy Of Hope has been helping those affected | :05:53. | :06:09. | |
by the flooding. He is in Victoria, Texas, which is | :06:10. | :06:18. | |
midway between Houston and Corpus Christi. What is your priority right | :06:19. | :06:25. | |
now in terms of disaster management? Our priority right now is to get | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
food, water and hygiene items and other emergency supplies to those | :06:30. | :06:35. | |
that are affected by the storms. And is the hardest hit area for you at | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
the moment Houston or are you beginning to serve communities in | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
the suburbs as well? We have been in the area for a couple of days | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
already. We started in Corpus Christi. We are in Victoria, Texas, | :06:49. | :06:54. | |
today as you said. Victoria and point south-east of here are the | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
areas that were hit by the eyeball, so that is where a lot of damage is | :06:58. | :07:03. | |
still we are serving these areas right now with food, water, | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
emergencies applies not only during Victoria but places like Ingleside | :07:07. | :07:12. | |
and areas like that. Beyond here, we will be into the Houston area is in | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
the coming days as the waters recede. Stacey, how would you | :07:17. | :07:24. | |
describe with all your experience in disaster relief the impact of the | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
hurricane and the tropical storm, the aftermath of Harvey? It has been | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
very widespread. You have the impact of the Hyuri came Hyuri came itself | :07:34. | :07:42. | |
with the damage, things like that. You can't have that with the | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
rainfall that has just inundated the area and it is devastating to many | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
of these communities. The president is going to visit | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
Corpus Christi in Texas tomorrow. Do you think that will have a | :07:56. | :08:00. | |
galvanising impact on the rescue and relief effort or is it already very | :08:01. | :08:06. | |
competently underway? I think it is very well organised already. A lot | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
of the local State federal officials are doing an excellent job, a lot of | :08:12. | :08:14. | |
organisations like ours and others in the area along with a lot of | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
volunteers are doing the best they can to help out the people that are | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
affected by this flooding and the hurricane. The storm is moving east | :08:24. | :08:31. | |
of Houston now, moving even into Louisiana. It is forecast to in the | :08:32. | :08:34. | |
next few days and there is a state of emergency. What provisions are | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
you making to help at Louisiana? Well, we are continuing working with | :08:40. | :08:43. | |
local partners, churches, state and federal officials and wherever we | :08:44. | :08:54. | |
can, we will do so. Thank you so much for joining us. Giving is an | :08:55. | :09:03. | |
update on the disaster relief efforts. I'm live here in La Grange, | :09:04. | :09:11. | |
Texas, where the Colorado River has broken its banks. The river is now | :09:12. | :09:19. | |
55 feet, it is cresting, people here are beginning the process of | :09:20. | :09:25. | |
cleaning up. Ruined homes and ruined businesses, and extraordinarily | :09:26. | :09:28. | |
catastrophic event and it is not over yet. Taxi in London. | :09:29. | :09:35. | |
German prosecutors say a nurse who is serving a life sentence | :09:36. | :09:40. | |
may have killed as many as 90 people. | :09:41. | :09:43. | |
Niels Hoegel was convicted and jailed two years ago | :09:44. | :09:45. | |
for giving lethal drug injections to intensive care patients. | :09:46. | :09:47. | |
Investigators have since exhumed more than a hundred bodies | :09:48. | :09:50. | |
of patients who died in clinics where he worked. | :09:51. | :09:53. | |
From Berlin, Damien McGuinness reports. | :09:54. | :10:03. | |
This man could turn out to be the deadliest serial killer | :10:04. | :10:05. | |
In 2015, former nurse Niels Hoegel was sent to jail | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
But police now say they've found evidence that he murdered | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
around 90 other patients and that there are dozens of other suspected | :10:15. | :10:20. | |
TRANSLATION: If the clues had been duly investigated at the time, | :10:21. | :10:27. | |
even in Delmenhorst hospital, then the deaths of many patients, | :10:28. | :10:30. | |
in our opinion, could have been prevented. | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
The nurse injected patients at this hospital with drugs | :10:35. | :10:37. | |
His aim was to then resuscitate them | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
There are now allegations that some in the hospital | :10:42. | :10:47. | |
TRANSLATION: The current circumstances lead to the conclusion | :10:48. | :10:52. | |
that the former management was aware that Niels H had an awful | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
That means that German authorities are asking questions | :10:56. | :11:02. | |
about whether hospital staff turned a blind eye | :11:03. | :11:06. | |
and about why it took so long for the murders to be uncovered. | :11:07. | :11:11. | |
Let's take a look at some of the other stories making the news. | :11:12. | :11:17. | |
European and African leaders meeting in Paris have agreed | :11:18. | :11:19. | |
on an action plan to curb the flow of migrants | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
The French President Emmanuel Macron said it would involve | :11:24. | :11:26. | |
tackling people smugglers, improving security and increasing | :11:27. | :11:29. | |
The German leader Angela Merkel said there was much work to do | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
to improve security, judicial procedures and development. | :11:35. | :11:39. | |
In South Africa, five men have appeared in court facing murder | :11:40. | :11:41. | |
and conspiracy to murder charges in a story of alleged cannibalism | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
They were arrested after one of them handed himself over to police | :11:46. | :11:51. | |
saying he was "tired" of eating human flesh. | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
In the UK, a lorry driver has been remanded in custody after appearing | :11:57. | :11:59. | |
in court accused of causing the deaths by dangerous driving | :12:00. | :12:01. | |
of eight people on the M1 motorway on Saturday. | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
Four other people were seriously injured in the crash | :12:06. | :12:08. | |
About 150 people have been treated in hospital and hundreds more | :12:09. | :12:14. | |
affected by an unknown gas which hit the Sussex coast in the south | :12:15. | :12:17. | |
Authorities are investigating the cause and have not ruled out | :12:18. | :12:22. | |
either on-shore or off-shore locations. | :12:23. | :12:28. | |
The Vatican has announced that Pope Francis will visit Myanmar | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
in November as the violence there continues involving the | :12:32. | :12:33. | |
Thousands of Muslim Rohingyas have fled their homes in recent days | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
as deadly violence erupts between the army and Rohingya | :12:39. | :12:41. | |
Many have escaped to the border between Rakhine state | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
and Bangladesh, but are being turned away by border guards. | :12:47. | :12:49. | |
The fighting has already left more than one hundred people dead. | :12:50. | :12:52. | |
They've been coming across the border for days now | :12:53. | :12:59. | |
in twos and threes like this mother and her children | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
There is shooting going on at the border, she says. | :13:04. | :13:10. | |
But Bangladesh, already home to have 1 million Rohingyas, | :13:11. | :13:18. | |
These border guards are telling recent arrivals | :13:19. | :13:25. | |
It's a very tough message to deliver to people who in some cases | :13:26. | :13:32. | |
have seen their villages burned down and seen family members killed. | :13:33. | :13:40. | |
TRANSLATION: During the clash, my father was killed. | :13:41. | :13:42. | |
I don't know where my mother and my other relatives are | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
because I left my village out of fear. | :13:48. | :13:49. | |
There are too many disturbances, | :13:50. | :13:50. | |
Groups huddle in the grass right up against the border | :13:51. | :14:03. | |
with nothing but umbrellas for shelter or, if they're lucky, | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
If they can get to the established refugee camps, | :14:08. | :14:13. | |
But some Rohingyas have lived here like this for decades. | :14:14. | :14:23. | |
With what now appears to be an active insurgency | :14:24. | :14:25. | |
inside Rakhine state, there will surely be more displaced | :14:26. | :14:28. | |
people coming who will need feeding and housing. | :14:29. | :14:33. | |
is making the Bangladesh border guards nervous. | :14:34. | :14:38. | |
They've seen plenty of displaced Rohingyas | :14:39. | :14:43. | |
before fleeing violence, but this is the first time in living | :14:44. | :14:47. | |
memory that there have been two sides fighting over the border | :14:48. | :14:52. | |
with a death toll which over the last five days | :14:53. | :14:55. | |
The guru whose conviction for rape triggered deadly riots | :14:56. | :15:07. | |
in northern India has been sentenced to 20 years in jail. | :15:08. | :15:10. | |
On Friday, clashes between followers of Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh | :15:11. | :15:12. | |
and security forces left 38 people dead. | :15:13. | :15:14. | |
Thousands of police have been deployed to the region | :15:15. | :15:20. | |
where his movement is based amid fears of further unrest. | :15:21. | :15:22. | |
The town where the controversial self-styled Guru is being held | :15:23. | :15:27. | |
After the explosion of violence that followed his conviction | :15:28. | :15:38. | |
The normally flamboyant guardsman was subdued as the sentence was read | :15:39. | :15:44. | |
out. The victim said it was too light and they would appeal. | :15:45. | :15:47. | |
After the explosion of violence that followed his conviction | :15:48. | :15:52. | |
the Indian authorities say they are taking no chances. | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
Paramilitary and troops have been deployed. | :15:57. | :15:58. | |
The town in which the vast temple complex that serves | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
Are your troops ready to besiege the Temple complex if necessary? | :16:03. | :16:11. | |
We are fully equipped, fully ready and fully trained. | :16:12. | :16:13. | |
Whatever directions are given, we'll implement it. | :16:14. | :16:14. | |
Guru Ram Rahim is a flamboyant and controversial figure, | :16:15. | :16:17. | |
who stars in his own movies and command extraordinary support. | :16:18. | :16:25. | |
Many deportees say that despite the rape convictions, they have not lost | :16:26. | :16:30. | |
faith in the man they regard as a living saint. TRANSLATION: He is a | :16:31. | :16:39. | |
true saint at the allegations are false. I was hurt by the verdict. He | :16:40. | :16:43. | |
will always be with us, he does not matter that he's in jail. The guru | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
is always the good. Tonight, the Temple complexes effectively under | :16:49. | :16:53. | |
siege, surrounded by heavily armed police and troops. Inside, there are | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
reckoned to be 15,000 hard-core disciples. The fear is what happens | :16:58. | :17:02. | |
when the authorities try to get them out. | :17:03. | :17:06. | |
The UK's Brexit minister is in Brussels for the third round | :17:07. | :17:09. | |
of talks with his European Union counterpart | :17:10. | :17:10. | |
to negotiate Britain's exit from the bloc. | :17:11. | :17:12. | |
David Davis has called for the EU to show "flexibility | :17:13. | :17:15. | |
and imagination", but Michel Barnier says he's concerned about | :17:16. | :17:18. | |
the slow pace of the negotiations so far. | :17:19. | :17:25. | |
Speaking in the past hour, Michel Barnier said the clock | :17:26. | :17:28. | |
was ticking and the time had come for Britain | :17:29. | :17:30. | |
I am concerned time passes quickly. I welcome the UK Government's paper | :17:31. | :17:45. | |
and we have read them very carefully. But we need UK positions | :17:46. | :17:56. | |
on all separation issues. This is necessary to make sufficient | :17:57. | :17:57. | |
progress. Gavin Lee is in Brussels | :17:58. | :17:57. | |
following those talks. Can we sent a fair amount of | :17:58. | :18:11. | |
impatience and frustration in what he is saying? Yes, I think the | :18:12. | :18:18. | |
convivial howl's the weather has gone up. In round one around two, | :18:19. | :18:23. | |
they were still swapping presence of walking sticks and all sorts, but | :18:24. | :18:27. | |
now it is all about needling from the EU side through the chief | :18:28. | :18:33. | |
negotiator saying, hang on a minute. We want to see more from the UK. We | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
want to see them get serious from the British position saying that | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
actually the EU can be more flexible and I think that is pretty obvious | :18:42. | :18:45. | |
especially from David Davis today. Making it clear that he wants not to | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
be hemmed in and I think that is where we are seeing this battle at | :18:50. | :18:52. | |
the moment. The EU side says there are three things that they want to | :18:53. | :18:55. | |
be satisfied on, the Irish border, how much Britain has to pay in | :18:56. | :19:00. | |
settlement, Bill is potentially, and citizens' rights. David Davis has | :19:01. | :19:06. | |
published many paper setting out issues like customs of the British | :19:07. | :19:10. | |
side wants to discuss many options but the EU side says they want to | :19:11. | :19:13. | |
stick with those three and that has gone on now into the third month. | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
There are only 14 months left before Britain has to leave the EU come | :19:18. | :19:21. | |
what may in March 20 19. I haven't heard too many people saying we | :19:22. | :19:24. | |
should expect very much from this particular round of talks. We have | :19:25. | :19:31. | |
had the build-up to it. It is hardly McGregor which versus Mayweather. | :19:32. | :19:37. | |
Both sides are trying to say they are trying to get something perhaps | :19:38. | :19:40. | |
in September or October but this is the week. This is the week for the | :19:41. | :19:44. | |
technical bodies which basically means nothing will happen this week. | :19:45. | :19:48. | |
I think it will be dancing in the shadows with slight nuances where | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
they try to test each other's positions and give examples. One is | :19:53. | :19:57. | |
the money, the idea that the EU wants a methodology to say that | :19:58. | :20:01. | |
explores why equals dead and whether that principle is agreed. At the | :20:02. | :20:05. | |
moment, Britain says no, we don't agree. The other issue is citizens' | :20:06. | :20:11. | |
rights. Is the Court of Justice who rules over this? Britain want | :20:12. | :20:14. | |
something else on the moment there is very little meeting ground. Thank | :20:15. | :20:15. | |
you. From today, anyone manufacturing, | :20:16. | :20:18. | |
selling or even carrying a plastic bag in Kenya faces a fine of $45,000 | :20:19. | :20:21. | |
or four years in jail. Piles of waste plastic bags | :20:22. | :20:24. | |
are a common site across Kenya but there are fears of plastic | :20:25. | :20:26. | |
contamination in the food chain, because livestock often graze | :20:27. | :20:29. | |
on these rubbish dumps. Growing mounds of rubbish | :20:30. | :20:32. | |
at a neighbourhood in It's a common sight across Kenya's | :20:33. | :20:38. | |
rapidly expanding urban centres. Even cattle here have come to love | :20:39. | :20:46. | |
browsing through the heaps of garbage looking for kitchen | :20:47. | :20:50. | |
leftovers which they consume along with the plastic bags | :20:51. | :20:53. | |
used to dispose of them. With time, they tie around | :20:54. | :20:56. | |
inside of the stomach and then finally you find a cow unable | :20:57. | :21:02. | |
to walk or unwell and at the moment because the head of the cow looks OK | :21:03. | :21:06. | |
but now sometimes the cow can not stand, can not function well, | :21:07. | :21:11. | |
and then we just take A report by the United Nations | :21:12. | :21:15. | |
Environment Programme found that cattle slaughtered in Nairobi's | :21:16. | :21:22. | |
abattoirs had huge amounts of polythene bags in their guts | :21:23. | :21:25. | |
raising fears of plastic Now the government says | :21:26. | :21:28. | |
it is determined to implement Even visitors coming | :21:29. | :21:33. | |
into the country will be affected. I cannot guarantee that on the 1st | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
September we will be able to confiscate bags | :21:39. | :21:42. | |
at all of the airports and ports of entry the way others have been | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
able to do but that is the direction in which we are moving, | :21:47. | :21:51. | |
which is to say to all visitors coming to Kenya please do not | :21:52. | :21:55. | |
bring your plastic carrier bags. Consumers have been busy looking | :21:56. | :22:01. | |
for alternative carriers. I think the ban is good | :22:02. | :22:05. | |
because first of all you are able Visitors coming to our city will be | :22:06. | :22:08. | |
happy that the city is clean. I'm so excited about it | :22:09. | :22:14. | |
because finally our environment will be clean, free of plastics | :22:15. | :22:18. | |
and personally I've always been feeling | :22:19. | :22:21. | |
like plastics are choking us. One for fruit shopping | :22:22. | :22:25. | |
and one for my husband. The plastic bag ban is, | :22:26. | :22:34. | |
in many ways, taking people back to the old ways, | :22:35. | :22:37. | |
like these hand-woven traditional baskets were very common early | :22:38. | :22:40. | |
on but then were replaced by polythene bags but now | :22:41. | :22:43. | |
they are making a comeback so, in a way, one industry has been | :22:44. | :22:47. | |
killed, but another one revived. Back in Kajiado, Nancy hopes | :22:48. | :22:54. | |
that she too will now keep her tradition of cattle rearing | :22:55. | :22:57. | |
alive and grow her herd. With time, she hopes the environment | :22:58. | :23:03. | |
around her will become cleaner and the health | :23:04. | :23:06. | |
of her livestock improves. Notting Hill Carnival in London has | :23:07. | :23:26. | |
been baiting glorious sunshine on the second day of the event. It is | :23:27. | :23:31. | |
taking on extra significance following the Grenfell Tower fire in | :23:32. | :23:34. | |
which at least 80 people died in June. | :23:35. | :23:36. | |
Everyone can be a king or queen at carnival. | :23:37. | :23:39. | |
It's flamboyant, eccentric, extravagant. | :23:40. | :23:41. | |
The heroes of the sound system, playing to crowds | :23:42. | :23:58. | |
There is fierce competition amongst the DJs. | :23:59. | :24:05. | |
This sound system, we're giving a message, yeah? | :24:06. | :24:07. | |
A message of love and unity for everybody. | :24:08. | :24:09. | |
But, as I hear the music, and that baseline resonates | :24:10. | :24:13. | |
through my body, like I say, it's a spirit that wakes up, | :24:14. | :24:17. | |
and it's just higher, higher, higher, until you just go, oh! | :24:18. | :24:23. | |
Carnival is the Caribbean, with its culture and music. | :24:24. | :24:29. | |
A celebration born out of the struggle of the West Indian | :24:30. | :24:32. | |
immigrants living in London in the 1960s. | :24:33. | :24:36. | |
They refused to be beaten, and so, with colour and pride, | :24:37. | :24:39. | |
they marched proudly through the streets of Notting Hill. | :24:40. | :24:42. | |
Today, it's the biggest street party in Europe. | :24:43. | :24:46. | |
In terms of visitor numbers, Notting Hill is ten times | :24:47. | :24:48. | |
There are 70 performing stages, and 40 sound systems. | :24:49. | :25:00. | |
But, yeah, I really enjoy Carnival here. | :25:01. | :25:05. | |
People that make the costumes, the planet in advance. | :25:06. | :25:12. | |
We've been doing it for 24 years now, it's part of our life. | :25:13. | :25:15. | |
Once this is done, we start planning next year. | :25:16. | :25:21. | |
And so, as the sun sets on another Notting Hill Carnival, | :25:22. | :25:25. | |
In a statement made where else but on Facebook, | :25:26. | :25:36. | |
the site's CEO Mark Zuckerberg made a very special announcement. | :25:37. | :25:40. | |
Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla are expecting a baby girl. | :25:41. | :25:45. | |
In the post, he writes that he was hoping it would be | :25:46. | :25:48. | |
a girl and the couple will do their best | :25:49. | :25:50. | |
For some of us, it's been a very warm | :25:51. | :26:08. |
