Reasonable and responsible doctor willing to undertake this sort of experimental treatment, and they ought to be allowed to give it a go. Were not talking about quacks or quackery. It would be wrong for a child to be taken overseas the something that wouldnt have an affect. But as this current letter shows this is a treatment that has some scientific rationale. It isa it is a glorious saturday afternoon across the uk. It has been more co mforta ble, across the uk. It has been more comfortable, sunshine for most of us. Comfortable, sunshine for most of us. I will pick out an exception. In the far north West Of Scotland, we have a Weather Front close by it is breezy and cloudy. Elsewhere, lots of sunshine, some cloud increasing especially across parts of wales and south west england, an isolated light shower cannot be ruled out. As the cloud thickens further overnight there could be drizzle in the hills, low cloud and hillfort. The Weather Front pushes more across Northern Scotland.

This is bbc news, the headlines theresa may meets donald trump at the 620, the us president says he expects a trade deal with the uk very, very quickly and that hell be coming to london soon. The Prime Minister and i have developed a very special relationship and Rethink Trade Will Bea relationship and rethink trade will be a big factor with our two countries. I thank you for that. 620 leaders look to agree a final communique to come out of the talks. Firefighers tell the bbc they didnt have the necessary equipment needed to tackle the blaze at grenfell tower. There were celebrations in auckland after the Rugby Union Test match was drawn. In the meantime, lets bring you a programme called witness. Hello and welcome to witness, with me, Rebecca Jones, here at the British Library in london. Weve got another five people whove experienced extraordinary moments in history first hand. This month on the programme, a mother who took on argentinas military rulers to find her daughter. Paul mccartneys brother who remembers one of the beatles most famous performances. And an astronaut who survived a collision in space. But first, back in 1953, american husband and wife, julius and Ethel Rosenberg were executed by Electric Chair after being convicted of spying for the soviet union. Our first witness is the rosenbergs son robert. Archive one of the greatest Peacetime Spy Dramas in the nations history reaches its climax asJulius Rosenberg and mrs Ethel Rosenberg, convicted of Transmitting Secrets to russia entered the Federal Building in new york to hear their doom. The last time i saw my parents was in sing sing prison, just a couple of days before they were executed injune1953. I have this very strong visceral sense of a warm and loving family. My father played word games with my brother. I sat on my mothers lap. They were pretending like nothing was wrong, that wed see them, like wed see them in another few weeks. My brother, he knew that was wrong. And he wanted them to acknowledge the terrible situation that we were all in. And so he started wailing, one more day to live. Both my parents were children of the depression. They grew up in poverty on the Lower East Side of manhattan. My father, julius, was an electrical engineer. He was a member of the american communist party. My mother ethel was a housewife. My father was arrested in july of 1950, in new york city and my mother was arrested. Both were charged with conspiracy to commit espionage. The government said Julius Rosenberg was a master spy who led an spiring was a master spy who led an spy ring that stole the secret of the atomic bomb and gave it to the soviet union in 1945. Julius was guilty of espionage, but it didnt have anything to do with the secret of the atomic bomb. He had no knowledge of this. Its hard for me to believe that my mother didnt know about what he was doing. But there is no credible evidence that my mother participated in any way. This was the great red scare, the mccarthy period. The government was saying there was this International Communist conspiracy that was out to destroy our way of life. Fear makes powerful people do very dangerous things. The trial at which they were convicted was a travesty. We now know the judge secretly communicated with the prosecution, that evidence was fabricated. The chief Prosecution Witnesses perjured themselves. The government of the United States use the death penalty, used the death penalty, not as punishment, but as extortion. The purpose, as one of the fbi agents put it, we didnt want them to die, we wanted them to talk. There was a Worldwide Movement and mass movement, even within the United States at the height of the mccarthy period, to save my parents lives. They were executed on june the 19th, a month after my sixth birthday. My brotherjust kind of hung his head. And i came in and i knew something was wrong, but i didnt want to hear about it. Even a month after the execution, i was saying, when are we going to go and see mummy and daddy. And hed have to remind me they were dead. My parents should not have been executed and we took on a campaign to exonerate ethel. Have we given up . No. We havent given up. My brother and i, we are marathoners. We are going to keep going. Robert meeropol, Remembering His Parentsjulius and Ethel Rosenberg. Now, back in 1967, the bbc organised a Live International Television Broadcast called our world. They invited the beatles to play and they came up with a new song called all you need is love. Paul mccartneys brother mike was in the studio when the performance took place. This is steve race in the beatles Recording Studio in london, where the latest beatles record is at this moment being built up. Notjust a single performance, but the whole montage of performances. None of us knew what the hell was going on, but everyone went along with it and it was just a magic thing. All you need is love. All you need is love, love. Love is all you need. It was all such an experiment. It was that ridiculous three, two, one. Youre live to 700 million people. All you need is love, love. Love is all you need. In 1967, i was in a comedy group, it was a satirical comedy, Poetic Word Imagery Group called the scaffolds. And i used to stay with my brother in his house. So he said, theres this big thing coming up, do you fancy coming along . The our World Broadcast was this extraordinary idea to link all these countries. For the first time we can see right round our world from sunset to dawn by television. In 43 control rooms all around the world, Production Teams are monitoring and selecting the hundreds of pictures and sounds from five continents which will combine to make this historic programme. And so, how do you wrap up what was happening in london in the 60s in one song . John had written this thing called all you need is love, which was a peace song. Wed had the vietnam war, kennedy had been shot and it seemed to sum up the hopes and positive thinking of that era. Kill it. Very good. That will do for the vocal backing, very nicely. Well get the musicians in now. Everyone was rather polite, very quiet because it was such a big thing that was happening. Here then is final mix track take one of the song which we offer to the whole world. Love, love, love. And then to actually experience the slow and the format of the song, you heard all the little bits fitting in and then the orchestra joining in. And it building up, and up, and up. It was getting better, and better and people where relaxing more. Nothing you can sing that cant be sung. The whole thing built slowly, slow and apprehensive at first. And then into it and thenjohn and our kid delivering the harmonies and delivering the song and then building up to the crescendo and then it was party time. All you need is love. All our friends are there, mickjagger from the stones, marianne faithfull, his girlfriend, all the cream of pop society. Everyone is on such a high, the placards are going round, the balloons, the confetti is like snow, you are covered in snow, etc. And this atmosphere was electric and beautiful. Love is all you need. And it goes to another country and then this beautiful atmosphere in the studio. Right, its a wrap, love. And we all went home. Laughter. Mike mccartney in the beatles home town of liverpool. For almost 20 years, the Nobel Prize Winning author, ernest hemingway, had a house on the caribbean island of cuba, where he wrote some of his bestselling novels. As a young boy, Alberto Ramos worked on the estate and he later became hemingways cook. Alberto ramos, speaking to us from hemingways house. Remember, you can watch witness every month on the bbc news channel or you can catch up on all of films along with more than 1000 Radio Programmes in our online archive. Just go to bbc. Co. Uk witness. In the late 1970s, thousands of young men and women were detained in argentina for their opposition to military rule. Among those who went missing was ana maria borivali. Her mother spoke to witness. Archive they are called the mothers of the plaza de mayo, the square in the centre of buenos aires where they hold the same sad demonstration every week. Theyve all had at least one relative whos disappeared. Merta, in the offices of the mothers of the disappeared. And finally, in june 1997, an unmanned Supply Vessel crashed into the mir Space Station. The station quickly began to leak air and the astronauts on board desperately tried to seal it. Michael foale was one of them. He spoke to witness about surviving a crash in space. Mir was a Space Station built by the russians. The impression you got when you opened up the hatch and went into mir for the first time were two fold. One was the smell. It was a smell, a bit like an oily garage. Maybe a little bit of must, because we did have mould on the mir. And then the other impression is clutter. As you go through, its basically like going into the oesophagus of someones throat. After about six weeks of being on the station, id been doing my experiments, im very happy, i get up onjune 25. The commander and the Flight Engineer had been using Radio Control Equipment to fly a cargo ship called progress that weighs about seven tonnes into the mir station using a tv, looking at the station. As i look at the tv screen, i can see the orientation is all wrong for a proper docking to take place. And sasha, the Flight Engineer, says to me. And he means, the spacecraft which was joined on to the end of the station, which was at that point our lifeboat. But i understood because of the emergency in which he said it, that he meant go there to save your life. And as i float through, i feel the whole Space Station shudder and move around me. Im pretty sure this may be my last breath, because im looking at the thin three millimetre thick aluminium walls, just waiting for them to pass. Waiting for them to part. Klaxons go off when there is a pressure leak. Then i felt my ears popping, which meant in this case, the air was leaving the Space Station and there was a Whistling Sound coming from the spectre model. After 23 minutes, if we did not think we would start to go unconscious. Sasha comes to me and doesnt say a word. He just starts trying to remove cables leading into the module. Sasha looked around for a large hatch that could be put in place. As it went on, it sucked in. Because the station had been hit by the progress, we were rolling. The batteries had given out, none of the Carbon Dioxide removal was working, no Auction Regeneration and no communication with moscow. It was a totally d ea D Communication with moscow. It was a totally dead station. This is not something you see in the movies where it gets solved instantly by some brainy chap. It probably took about six hours. We use the Spacecraft Fibre jets to stop the Spacecraft Fibre jets to stop the Space Station tumbling and rolling wonderfully, somehow after this, all of sudden the fans started to come on and the lights came on. And i said, wed done it. How ever, the next month, the station was inoperable in any normal sense. It could just sustain our lives and nothing else. When finally the shuttle came in october, i was really, quite happy to see them. As we backed away from the mir station, i looked at it and thought, i dont really mind if i dont ever see that again. Michael foale, safely back on earth. That is it from witness this month. , lucy will be here at the British Library to guide you through another five moments in British Library to guide you through anotherfive moments in history.
