and medicine through a pipe. there's been a series of snags, a few days where we thought they were close to being rescued but lots of problems with the machinery. there was high powered drilling machines use, there was issues with one of the major machines which broke last week as well. some relief that given everything... 0h, here we are, we finally have a picture. this is the first worker who has been rescued. we don't have a name, but this is the picture everyone will be relieved to see, that he seems safe and well and is now safe as he comes out of the tunnel. and to remind you, this is part of a massive infrastructure project that the prime minister has put in place, a very ambitious project. a few billion dollars going into the highway project, which is aimed at connecting 400 pilgrimage sites, so it is huge. this is the first picture of the first rescue worker to be out of the tunnel. some details as well... i've just received some more details about the photo, so if we can go back to it. have you got the photo? i could tell you who else is in the photo. it is the state's chief minister. and the federal minister. can we go back to the photo? just some details we are getting of the people in the photo. there we go, there is the man he's been rescued, and with him is the chief minister and federal minister, meeting him. we don't know his name yet, but you consider media camera, a big crowd around him, and the chief minister and federal minister, who are with him. we have the first photo, there will be a huge sense of relief and excitement that finally the end is in sight for the rescuers and for those who have been standing vigil at the tunnel, waiting for these men, for theirfamily members to be released. it seems it will happen in the next few hours.— the next few hours. indeed, lucy. i was monitoring _ the next few hours. indeed, lucy. i was monitoring indian _ the next few hours. indeed, lucy. i was monitoring indian tv _ the next few hours. indeed, lucy. i was monitoring indian tv today. i l was monitoring indian tv today. i used to be based in india, this is a huge national moment for the country. one of pride, because after some 17 days, these workers are all fine, and they were able to get through to them and oxygen, and of course they will be getting medical checks. what we've seen in some of the images are makeshift hospitals set up, lots of food and supplies. we were hearing how it is so cold in that part of the himalayas, they will be having blankets on standby to ensure the men are fine once they come out of that tunnel. it is remarkable to see those first images of the first construction worker, he was taken out of that tunnel. as i say, it feels like a moment of pride for injured that all of the men have been safely rescued after their worst some snags and challenges with that rescue operation. i think one of the most important thing is to press upon our viewers is just which part of india it is in, it is in the himalayas, a place where i've often reported from because of landslides. some of the challenges that because it is incredibly cold at this time of year in north india. we were hearing from our corresponded on the road there. of course, for the rescue teams, and i was watching early and use conference that the authorities were giving on this issue and they were talking about how they had even got some of the indian railways expertise involved in this rescue mission. they were trying to work out the engineering and how they could logistically get to this particular tunnel. as i say, add to all about the fact it's a difficult terrain, we are talking about the himalayas, and an incredibly cold time of the year. the first images coming out, and indian tv is reporting at least four of the men have been brought out from that tunnel. the estimate is all 41 will be brought out of that tunnel within the next few hours. these reports coming from indian television as well. and rescue officials telling indian tv it will take around five or seven minutes for each of the workers to come out. in any of these situations, as we well though, the first thing they look at it as a medical check, and officials were saying a psychological check as well. there will be a lot of these men have gone through, lots of ups and downs. there will be a big process. let's not forget their families have been waiting in the bitter cold for days on end, in hope this moment would come. what we are hearing is they have begun some celebrations outside as well. one thing as well that struck me when i was looking at some of the images of the mouth of the tunnel as the rescue workers were continuing was how little temple had been set up on the side, and a lot of people in the area, is a religious part, a place where people go to pilgrimages as well. talking about how their faith helped them to get through what was an intense and difficult i7 get through what was an intense and

you across this. matthew is with you next. hello there. there's been a bit more sunshine around today, but it's also been a little bit colder, as well. over the next few days we stay in cold air. if anything, it's going to get even colder. temperatures quite a few degrees below what we normally have at this time of the year. more frost at night. barring a few wintry showers, it's looking generally dry. we have a few wintry showers around that area of low pressure today. there's colder air coming in behind that weather front there and that's arriving across scotland and the far north of england and northern ireland, so here, as early as the early evening, we're going to find frost developing. temperatures three to five degrees further south. with that colder air across the north we've got a few wintry showers to move down across scotland and into the north—east of england. further south, across england and wales, there will be more cloud developing, some light showers heading down towards the south—west where temperatures should remain above freezing because of that cloud. but elsewhere, we're looking at a more widespread frost. it could be as low as minus seven or minus eight in some parts of scotland. a little bit milder towards the south—west, where this cloud will slowly break up. we'll continue to see the odd shower flirting with the far south—west even into the afternoon, but most of the showers will be arriving across northern scotland, running down these north sea coasts. there will be some snow over the hills of scotland, perhaps over the north york moors, as well. for large parts of the country it will be dry, maybe a bit sunnier than today, but also a bit colder after that frost, perhaps temperatures no better than two degrees in glasgow. we're focusing on this area of low pressure as we head into thursday. it looks like its continuing to steer to the south of the uk, bringing some wet weather through the english channel. if there is any snow from that, it's just a low risk i think over dartmoor. it should really be out in the english channel. keeping us in this very cold air once again, another frosty start, another cold, but largely sunny day on thursday. some showers in the north—west and running down those north sea coasts. there will be a bit of sleet and snow in those, as well. those temperatures still only around three, four or five degrees, so a cold day on thursday. this is the temperature anomaly chart. it's colder than it would normally be at this time of the year across the uk and also across large parts of europe, where there is some more snow in the forecast. as far as snow is concerned in the uk, i don't think there's going to be too much of that as we head into the beginning of december. we are going to stay cold, though. a lot of the time it will be dry with some sunshine, but there will be frost at night. live from london, this is bbc news. the dramatic first rescue in northern india. the first of 41
