Just from i wasnt playing very well to do the work ive done and to stick with it and come through and the last game sort of summed up my week, got out of trouble and it was an amazing week and i really appreciate all the support. Meanwhile, coco gauff beat Greeces Maria Sakkari in straight sets to take the womens title. The world number seven was knocked out of wimbledon in the first round last month but bounced back in style in her first tournament since that defeat, taking the match 6 2, 6 3. I would say im heading in the right direction. Both areas of my game can improve a lot more. I know a lot of people try to stay away from that side but i feel like there are moments where i can improve and affect work especially, so i would say im in the right check. I feel like i can always get better. Henry slade and Alex Dombrandt are among the notable absentees from steve borthwick� s 33 man england squad for the upcoming Rugby Union World cup.

The Barbie Bandwagon shows no signs of slowing down. The producers Warner Brothers say the film has now taken more than One Billion Dollars at the global box office. It means greta gerwig has become the first woman to reach the milestone as a solo director. Sandro monetti is the Editor In Chief of the Hollywood International filmmaker magazine. We asked him whether hes surprised by barbies success. Well, no, because the Marketing Campaign was one of the best ive seen for any product in history. And, yes, a plastic doll, created back in 1959, has saved the cinema industry. Because when you think about it, the familiar death knell was ringing yet again for movie theatres. Its because the summer 2023 box office had started off with a lot of disappointing films, which had performed below expectations, and then came barbie and blew everything away. Its a barbie world now, we just live in it. It is especially an event for the still largely underserved female audience, you can grab your girl squad and head down to the multiplex, or as youll be calling it afterwards, your mojo dojo casa house. Mangled that up a bit people are drawn in by the Marketing Campaign. And when they get there, they find a movie which takes them by surprise, because it is notjust a musical, it deals with existential questions. Its basically a satire on gender identity. And its very timely, so this is notjust a hype machine, this is a movie that gives people something to think about and as well as enjoy.

Hello there. For a time this week the weather is set to feel a little bit more summer like than it has of late. Already looking like summer for this Weather Watcher in hertfordshire. We are going to see some drier and warmer weather developing this week, but perhaps only for a short time. On the Satellite Picture you can see this big swirl of cloud, a potent storm system currently battering parts of northern europe. Thats going to get a little bit closer, close enough to strengthen the winds across the far north east of scotland, particularly shetland. Quite windy here over the next few days. Then, at the other end of the uk, weve got this zone of cloud and some patchy rain starting to push in across the far south west of england, the far west of wales. Turning quite misty and murky for some coasts and hills and overnight it will push that cloudy, damp and murky weather a little bit further eastwards across southern areas. Further north, some clear spells. That strengthening wind in the north east of scotland. Turning really quite chilly again for a good part of Scotland Down Into Northern England, whereas further south, with more cloud, with splashes of rain, not as chilly. In fact, turning quite humid as this Frontal System rolls its way in into tomorrow. So thats going to bring a zone of cloud, some outbreaks of patchy rain, some mist and murk around some of the coasts and up over the hills. But from Northern England into Northern Ireland and scotland we will get to see some sunshine. Scattered showers in the north east of scotland, where it will be turning increasingly windy. Wind gusts of 50mph or more affecting parts of shetland. That Wind Direction not particularly warm, so just 12 degrees for lerwick. More generally, 17 to 20 degrees. Into wednesday, well, increasingly humid air spreading from the south west. With it quite a lot of cloud, some mist and murk and bits and pieces of rain and drizzle. Some sunny spells, as well. The best of the sunshine across a good part of scotland. Still windy and chilly in shetland, 12 degrees here, but further south highs of 24. Thursday looks warmer still. All of us just about getting into this southerly wind, lifting temperatures into the middle 20 celsius, maybe 27 in parts of south east england. Notice it will always stay that bit chillier in the far north east of scotland. Where we do see that warmth, it probably wont last all that long. A Frontal System will push eastwards during friday, turning things cooler and more unsettled again into the weekend. Live from london. This is bbc news. The first Asylum Seekers to be housed on a barge off the south coast of england arrive with more expected later in the day.
