Temperatures have now reached a new record for the Late August Bank Holiday weekend, the met office has announced. It looks like the highest temperature recorded this afternoon was 33. 3 degrees at heathrow. Earlier, our news correspondent Richard Galpin sent this update from brighton. Records have been smashed this summer records have been smashed this summer in terms of temperatures. This latest one, 30 3. 3 celsius. That is two celsius more than the previous record, which had stood for almost 20 years. Then if you wind back to the beginning of this year, or february to be precise, there was a mini heatwave in west wales near aberystwyth, where the temperature reached more than 20 celsius. That was unprecedented for february. Coming into the summer again we have had the hottest july coming into the summer again we have had the hottestjuly day on record, with the temperature reaching more than 38 celsius. Certainly we have been speaking to some people here and they have been saying, yes, this is great, we are having a lovely time, we are enjoying being in the sun in late august, but at the same time they are saying they are concerned that all this may be linked to climate change. Much more details on the website much more details on the now its time for a look at the weather with ben rich. Good evening. Under sunny skies, temperatures getting up to 33 degrees today but western parts of the uk were a bit cooler, partly because of the extra cloud you can see on the satellite. Some areas of sea fog and mist as well and actually, the cloudy, murky weather will become more widespread across the western half of the uk as we go on through tonight. Further east, we hold on to some clear skies with temperatures between 12 and 16. If you are travelling early in the morning through wales, the midlands, north west england, south west scotland, it could be very murky indeed for some places, some quite travelling conditions. A mixture of low cloud, mist and fog which could take time to clear. The odd shower down to the far south west and some rain into the Western Isles later. 0therwise, plenty of sunshine and a cooler day across the north and west of the uk. Towards eastern england, though, we could once again get up into the low 30s celsius. It cools off for all of us slowly as we head through the coming week and we will see some outbreaks of rain at times. Hello, this is bbc news with chris rogers. The headlines. Boris johnson says the chances of a brexit deal are touch and go ahead of his meeting with the Eu Council President at the g7 summit.

Batting brilliance from ben stokes his sensational century leads england to a nailbiting victory over australia and keeps the ashes series alive 40,000 troops begin a major operation to fight fires in the amazon. Now on bbc news, the travel show. Hello, and welcome to the travel show with me, lucy hedges. This week, were looking back at some of the amazing trips and awesome adventures weve had so far on the show this year. Here is just a taste of whats coming up. Youre actually no good to me here if you cant function and you cant fight. Ok, ill do my best. Are you ready to go now . I am ready to go down. Alright. This place is like the Chelsea Flower Show on steroids. There you go, run out, run out well, if if you enjoyed that then stick around and relive some of our favourite moments with us. Were kicking off with one of worlds favourite tv shows, well, apart from this one, of course. Game of thrones ended back in may, much to the disappointment of millions of fans all over the world but its legacy lives on in Northern Ireland, as crystal found out last month. Ok, so i have a confession i am a giant game of thrones geek. And im super excited, because this place has to be top of the list for any true superfan. Welcome to castle ward, or to what many tv viewers will know as winterfell. And well, when in winterfell. Arrrgh evening my lady, where do you hail from . From london. London. And which house do you represent . Oh, im not sure i have a house. House of larwood. House of larwood, never heard of them, sounds like something the nights watch would have dragged in. I believe you are here to learn how to do archery. I need people to hunt or to fight. 0k. Are you up to the task . I hope so. I hope so too, otherwise there is a penalty. 0h. 0h, a beheading. That seems measured. Absolutely, because you are no good to me here at winterfell if you cant hunt and you cant fight. I will do my best. Thank you. In this series, no character is safe from a grisly end, so it never hurts to know what youre doing with a bow and arrow. Select your arrows by the tip, never by the feathers and never further down the shaft. 0k . Think of it coming out of a quiver, Three Fingers on the drawing string and then draw back so that it brings to your right eye. Loose all right. I hit the actual thing your first arrow ever and you hit the target. 0k. Archer ready. Draw hold. Loose look at that. Yes well done you. Yeah so this place used to be a farm and yet now its a huge tourist attraction. How did that happen . We are where game of thrones started, so its the Perfect Place to start your journey, to go on and do some of the other sites that are around. Yes, they have gone off to croatia, yes, they have gone off to iceland, yes, they have gone off to morocco and so on, and thats fine, but most of it is shot here. And it has turned into what we now know as screen tourism, something we have never had before. Yes, we have the giants causeway, a unesco World Heritage site and it is beautiful, and all that, but people used to go there and there alone, and then they would take off. Now they come to see many other parts of our province. Crystal having an epic time in Northern Ireland exploring game of thrones country. Up next, last month also marks the 50th anniversary of the apollo moon landings and we could not let the anniversary of this truly momentous moment pass without marking it so we sent rajan to the Kennedy Space center in florida to find out how it felt to be there back in 1969. The exhibits here are Authentic Space ready vehicles that in the end didnt make the journey into orbit, including this command service module. And this is the centrepiece. A magnificent saturn v rocketjust like the one that went to the moon. Now upright, its taller than the statue of liberty, with 7. 5 million lbs of thrust. Now, its comprised of three stages, two of which were jettisoned before the astronauts returned to the earths atmosphere. Its incredible. Between 1967 and 1974, 13 missions launched using a saturn v rocket, including the ten apollo trips. This is one of only three of these rockets left in the world today. Ive got to say, all that wiring and cabling, it looks really exposed and raw. But i guess it worked. This is a replica of a lunar module for apollo 11. In charge of the engineering of the module was the aptly named charlie mars, and he says the atmosphere was electric. We were in the operations and control building at kennedy, its where we made all the vehicles and did our tests. I can still remember to this day hearing the count from buzz aldrin, hearing what was going on, so much fuel, move so far, and the complete silence. When the eagle has landed you could hear the sigh in the complete room, you could hear people take a breath. Tranquillity base here. The eagle has landed are words that every schoolboy of the coming generation are going to have to learn and pass on to succeeding generations. The whole Moon Programme itself was all a part of politics. What are we going to do to get away from this disaster in cuba and what are we going to do about all this integration activity about the furore over there . We need Something Different for people to latch onto. Well, lets go to the moon. Mission control oh, its beautiful mike. It really is. We came from all over the world, literally, you know, into this environment and we worked our tails off for as many years. To get to the moon in the decade, you know, it required a lot of personal sacrifice. John tribes says the astronauts knew they were going to be in the public eye, but didnt quite realise how much scrutiny there would be. Neil armstrong was a quiet guy but he always was a gentleman. He was always polite. Thats you and Neil Armstrong . Yep. When youve spent 50 years of your life in the public eye, neil backed away. He didnt want to sign anything, he didnt want photos taken, he just wanted to be private person Neil Armstrong. At this museum in nearby titusville, consoles and various Space Mission memorabilia donated by astronauts and space workers are lovingly showcased. This week is very much about honouring the achievements of the past, but at the Kennedy Space centre, one eye is firmly fixed on producing astronauts and technicians for the future with hands on training experiences for younger visitors. Theyll be needed. We are in a real renaissance now. The nation is Building Three capsules to return to the moon, two of them are being built here. Were building big rockets, state of the art satellite facilities, its a good time. Because the birthplace of american spaceflight is now reinventing itself as americas spaceport. 0ur long term vision is to make Central Florida the gateway to all of the Economic Activity thats going to be occurring in the solar system over the next 50 100 years. Well, stay with us because still to come, mike is on a mission to explore the Great Barrier reef. Wow adi goes behind the scenes at a gigantic garden in dubai. And i try my hand at an iconic street game in new york. There you go, run out, run out funny how they never asked me back. Let go of the bat now, australias Great Barrier reef must be on many travellers bucket lists but is there a Sustainable Way to get to explore its fragile ecosystem . Well, the designers behind an Innovative New sub think theyve found the answer so a while back, we sent mike tojump on board and go for a dive. Scuba diving is an amazing way to see whats hiding underneath these waves, but if you cant scuba dive, there are other ways you can do that too. You can snorkel, you can take a glass bottomed boat, but theres a new kid in town. Something quite exciting. This sub belongs to harvey. Hes teamed up with a rideshare app and has been hiring it out for short trips. Theyre just getting it ready for us now. Its still not cheap though, at a 3,000 for two passengers. What an incredible thing. Thats just over us 2,000 or about £1600. This is it, the submersible. But harvey thinks this is the future. Now so many more people can get underwater. Youve got a ton of people that cant for various reasons. You have a ton of people who cant scu ba dive. This gives people that ability to get underwater and explore and see what there is under the water. The submarine industry is still in its infancy. Currently there are no other operators on this reef. Many deep Sea Adventures in other parts of the world require you have very deep pockets. Its a small industry but it is growing and expanding. Submarines are inherently expensive, the rides are fairly expensive, but it is changing and costs are coming down, price points, things like that. Aquatica is working very hard to come to market with lower cost submersibles to be able to get more of them in operation. Getting into the sub. This is usually the tricky. Fun and games it might be, but in the safety briefing, you are under no illusions that this is a serious piece of kit. Do listen closely to the staff. Do inform us of any pre existing health conditions. Do bring your camera. Youve got your camera . Check. Ive got my camera. Dont wear excessive perfume. You smell great, were good to go. Dont bring any matches or lighters. No. Dont drink lots of fluids before you dive. No bathrooms there is no toilet ok, i think were good then. If you wouldnt mind hopping on the scale for me. Guess my weight. Im going to say 86. 85 dude not bad. You win the prize. There you go, so if you wouldnt mind hopping on here. This is for trimming the submarine, we weigh all passengers, kind of like a helicopter ride. 86 i knew it. Its a tight squeeze in the three man sub. Its actually a repurposed Research Vehicle and after these tourist trips its off to the British Virgin islands to survey some of the damage left by hurricane irma. All right, are you ready to go down . I am ready to go down here we go. We have just started the descent under the water to the Great Barrier reef. Look at this. The water is slowly coming up and about to engulf us. Ifeel a little bit nervous. Once youre fully submerged i have a feeling youre going to completely forget. Wow. The sub can dive to a maximum depth of 125 metres. Were just a few metres under the surface but theres still great marine life at these depths. Here we have some chromis in the front, the little blue ones. In the coral. Yeah, i believe those are chromis. And we have scissor tailed sergeants or Something Like that, the striped ones . Golden damsel, those are the yellow guys. Youre good at this game. Im getting really good. I got a chi chi. This is incredible. I can see how if you were a bit scared to scu ba dive, or maybe you have claustrophobia. I was thinking it was going to be much more claustrophobic, but its not. The acrylicjust opens it right up. Topside, please advise us when the dive boat has passed. Over. Can you tell us a bit about how this is powered . The submarine is fully electric. We have a 240 volt dc electrical system, electric thrusters powered by batteries. And thats about it, its very simple. So no emissions . No, no emissions, no gas, no oil, no diesel, no nothing. Its incredibly environmentally safe. Nothing to leak into the ocean, battery powered, and we could charge her up and away we go. We all know the coral is quite fragile. Is there any issue in bringing something so big down under the water . Not at all. As you can see, she has tremendous control of the sub. Buoyancy control and whatnot and manipulation with the thrusters. She can park it anywhere you want, can keep it nice and high off the reef and with the view you have, all travelling around, it works out very well and incredibly in control. Do you want to try it . Can i drive it . Yeah. I mightjust grab it back if things go a little bit. Wow, ok. Just hold it level. Illjust do the vertical for you, youre just going to drive. Why dont you take us a little bit closer. Soldo. Just forward. This is forward . Yeah. Whoa just dont touch those ones. Ill do a little bit back, not too much. You dont want to run into the reef. Thats a bad idea. Im not qualified for this. Actually, its very much like a playstation controller, like a video game. Copy that. Perfect. We are right in line with the jetty. We have made our whole round trip so we will pop up to the surface and head back to the dock. And its all over. That was fun, though. Some say we know more about the surface of the moon than we do the bottom of the ocean. What an opportunity this is to glimpse a world that so few people get a chance to see. Well, were off to dubai now. Not a place that always gets good press when it comes to sustainability. But theyre making serious attempts to redress that impression. Back injune, ade paid a visit to the most ginormous garden you are ever likely to see that claims it takes sustainability very seriously. Heading through the entrance here at the miracle garden, three things immediately strike you. First, the smell, then its the colour, and then, theres the scale. This place is enormous since it opened on valentines day back in 2013, almost 8 Million People have come to take a look around the miracle garden. And im off to meet the man whose idea it all was. Dubais full of surprises. Where did you get your inspiration from . Actually, my inspiration, first of all, i am a landscaping engineer. And since i was a child, always reading about heaven, paradise, and it is filled with flowers, so always this idea in my brain, and always when i see my kids playing, you know, games on screens, on tv, i always. It comes to my mind, really, i need something for people to go out. So this has inspired me to create something to take people outside, to take people to nature. And its on such a grand scale so many flowers here how many flowers do you have in this park . We are always sustaining above 50 million flowers. 50 million flowers . yes. This place must take a lot of water. Where do you get it from and how do you keep it sustainable . Actually, we are using the recycled water from dubai municipality, so all the grey water over the city, the municipality recycle it and pump it to us, and from our side we refilter this water and convert it to very high quality water. And what about your challenges . What is the biggest challenge for you . Actually, the biggest challenge is just the wind. If we have strong wind, it is really our best challenge. We cant control it. We can control pests, we can control irrigation, temperature, everything can be controlled but not the wind. This place is like the Chelsea Flower Show on steroids. To finish off, i like to consider myself pretty sporty, but when it came to a ballgame thats legendary in new york and im not talking about baseball i clearly had some things to learn. This is a bit embarrassing. Music. If you come to the bronx in spring or summer, theres a street called stickball boulevard where, most sundays, emperors Stickball League keep this tradition alive. Ok, so far as i can tell, each player has three attempts to serve the ball, one attempt to hit it, if they miss the ball theyre out. If they hit it its about getting to first base, second base, et cetera. To keep the game going, the street is closed off to traffic. Shouting. There is a lot of smack talk as well. A lot of smack talk. In fact, ive been told smack talk accounts for 90 of the game. But theres also, you know, a lot of camaraderie. Everyones just having fun. Its just about a bunch of friends getting together, hanging out. How did you get into it . Were all washed up baseball players. Thats a part of it. The other thing is its a tradition. Stickball is a tradition that has always happened in new york city. And lot of our parents kind of like brought us into the game. My familys been playing, wow, over 50 yea rs. I remember a young kid going to see my uncles play downtown. Thatre really cool. What brought you into it . No. New york emperors Stickball League was established in the mid 80s. Weve got approximately 100 members playing stickball. One of the leagues founders was called steve mercado, he was a fireman in Engine Company 40, who died in the 9 11 attacks. It was his vision to just try to push this event, this league to he always wanted it to be an olympian event. So memorial day weekend we have teams from california coming, we have teams from florida, orlando, miami, tampa, we constantly try to uphold the vision for him. His two sons, as a matter of fact, play in a league now. But its just a legacy we want to continue for him. The power of some of these swings you just, you can hear it. I dont know if i am going to hit it that hard but i am going to give it my best shot. All right, lets go. Come on. Just grab a stick. Alrighty. There is one right there. Let it bounce once. Step into the ball. 0k i feel like the ball clipped the bat. Im going for a clean hit this time. All right, so this time youve got to run to first base. Now theyre going to talk trash though. Keep an eye on the ball. Laughter. Argh, dont say it 0k. Just toss it out. Thats good. There you go. Run out let go of your bat. Laughter. I think im going to leave it to the professionals. I need a bit more practice. Well, thats it for this week. Catch us if you can next week when christas off to scotland to take in some ancient buildings that are older than the pyramids. What do you think top speed is for the really accomplished curricle paddler . Not much quicker than im going right now. Dont forget, you can follow us on social media, where you can share your travel stories with the rest of the world. Until next time though, from me, lucy hedges, and the rest of the travel show team, its goodbye. Good evening. Sunshine has been the order of the day across many parts of the uk.
