Youre looking at the most successful british paralypian of them all dame Sarah Storey bags a seventeenth gold. Forty years on, pop Legends Abba Delight fans by announcing a new album and concerts with a difference. Good evening, a Public Inquiry has found � Blatant Hypocrisy� in the way major religious groups handle allegations of child abuse. The independent inquiry into child sexual abuse said dozens of religious organisations within christianity, Orthodoxjudaism And Islam were morally failing children. The report follows similar inquries into the catholic and protestant denominations. This inquiry found that religious leaders discouraged the reporting of abuse to protect the reputations of their respective groups. Our home Affairs CorrespondentTom Symonds has the details. It� s very difficult to form an identity and to be a whole person when you are on your own. This is sarah. Born into thejehovah� s witnesses. Into a family dominated by the church. Effectively you were sexually abused by both your father and your mother. Yes. There father when you are much younger . And your mother when you were a little bit older . And they have control over you . What was that like . I don� t really have words to describe what that was like honestly. The sense of Powerlessness And Hopelessness. Sarah is not her real name. She was taken into care. She settled by the sea for a new start. Away from the witnesses. They teach that everyone who is not a witness is part of satan World Or Satan system as they call it and that makes you as a young person terrified to trust anyone else outside of the organisation. At the same time terrified to trust anyone inside of the organisation. It was very difficult. It� s a pattern repeated across 38 religious groups investigated by this inquiry which has also examined the catholic and anglican churches. The way that leaders are revered and the culture of community and not taking things outside of the communities are dealing with everything internally and not making outside authorities aware so that he can be looked at in the wider sense and making sure the root causes are being tackled and discouraging victims from appointing even within the organisation. An example. The jehovah� s witnesses have a policy that all Child Protection allegations have to be reported to the police. But inside the church, they also follow a biblical scripture which says that all allegations must be supported by two witnesses. This report says that the two witness rules should have no place in any response to child sexual abuse which often happens with no witnesses. The church says it� s committed to protecting children and will consider this report. In the orthodoxjewish community, the inquiry heard about the concept of not snitching as one witness put it on a Fellow Due to outsiders. But campaigners are concerned this report does not hit religious organisations hard enough. They have to raise the bar for religious organisations and not give them the rate because they have religion on their side. Religion does not equal good enough safeguarding. The report is short on a solution to all of this but that is what those who suffered as children including sarah are now using their adult voices to demand. At least 15 people have died after Flash Flooding and tornadoes hit north eastern parts of america. New york and newjersey declared a State Of Emergency as people were trapped in flooded basements and vehicles were swept away. Around 3 inches that� s 8 centimetres of rain fell in just one hour in parts of New York. Our North America CorrespondentNada Tawfik is in Newjersey Hurricane Ida has now devastated two major regions of the united states. Here in the northeast, there was no Anticipation Or Warning that the storm� s remnants would be this destructive and life threatening. In this town in newjersey, a 70 year old man and his car were swept away by the floods. In New York, the youngest victim was just two years old. Cascading waterfalls rushed to the platforms down to the tracks of New York city subway. The sudden deluge from ida� s move up north shut down the network and did not stop there. A State Of Emergency was called as the city became paralysed by record breaking rain and Flash Flooding, Turning Boulevards into waterways. Motorists and a few outworking despite the obstacles waded through the water to get home. Meanwhile, others were stranded as some flights and service on amtrak grounded to a halt. At the Us Open, players and spectators were caught by surprise as ida slammed through stadiums retractable roof interrupting the match. In westchester, residents were rescued from the rising waters on their doorsteps. We are homeless right now. We are willing to come together and figure out a solution and go from there. Others were not so lucky and today officials are still discovering the true death toll. Mayor Bill De Blasio warned that with Climate Change in the region was going to become more prone to these extreme weather events. A Record Set two weeks ago, another Record Set now, rainfall like we have not seen ever before. This is the biggest Wake Up Call we could possibly get. We are going to have to do a lot of things differently and quickly. In philadelphia, there was no telling where the Delaware River ended and suburbs began. Rescuers went door to door by both helping people escape and take shelter in the upper floor of their homes and their roof. The devastating impact of the storm is still coming into view and this town in Newjersey A Powerful Tornado that like seeing normally in the midwest a homes. People are now beginning to pick up the pieces of their lives blown apart by ida as the storm claims more victims. Let� s speak to our correspondent in New York, samira hussain.

What strikes me is we have alljUst Seeing . What strikes me is that we have alljUst Seeing . What strikes me is that these we have alljUst Seeing . What strikes me is that these kinds | we have alljUst Seeing . � wisgt strikes me is that these kinds of storms we expect to see more in the future and we are already seeing evidence that the storms are becoming more powerful and producing a lot more rainfall. These kinds of storms initially starts as tropical cyclones in the caribbean or The Atlantic and Ocean Temperatures are a lot warmer in the Gulf Of Mexico in particular is the Sea Surface temperatures are quite warm and that� s where they gasoline for these kinds of storms. We are seeing a lot more Water Vapour in Beast Storms and rainfall and moving slower and producing a lot more rain because it moves slower. We producing a lot more rain because it moves slower producing a lot more rain because it moves slower. We spoke to people in New York would moves slower. We spoke to people in New York would say moves slower. We spoke to people in New York would say this moves slower. We spoke to people in New York would say this caught moves slower.

They could be because been more prepared for this . Tie could be because they need been more prepared for this . Tie 1 could be because they need to been more prepared for this . Tie 1 could be because they need to pay more attention to the forecast for example from the national Hurricane Centre. Henry was pretty well forecasted and a number of days in advance that gives some whining that estimate that is coming and they should be prepared. We estimate that is coming and they should be prepared. Estimate that is coming and they should be prepared. We hear about extreme weather should be prepared. We hear about extreme weather being should be prepared. We hear about| extreme weather being exacerbated and made worse by Climate Change, can you explain that link please . Sell in the case of these kinds of rainfall events, as the atmosphere warms up iT Holds more moisture and therefore you have more Moisture Rating down in these kinds of events and what you need is a storm such as hurricane or what� s left of a hurricane or what� s left of a hurricane such Hurricane Ida that is passed over the northeast and it� s going to produce a lot of rainfall and the Ocean Temperatures like i said are quite warm and provides fuel for these kinds of storms and it� s very consistent with what we expect to see with warming climates. Normally at this time of the year we are used to reporting from the southern states of the united states where there are hurricanes most notably Hurricane Katrina in 2005, how surprising that we are now reporting from Northeastern States in newjersey and New York . It� s in newjersey and New York . Its somewhat in newjersey and New York . It� s somewhat surprising because hurricanes usually don� T Hold well together and track the way that Hurricane Henrique but we are seeing evidence of these storms staying stronger the further north they go in The Atlantic and so normally the storm would have veered off into The Atlantic but they tracked right along the coast and we should expect to see this sort of thing more in the future. To see this sort of thing more in the future the future. Can we get better at redictin the future. Can we get better at predicting what the future.

The Foreign Secretary, Dominic Raab, has been visiting qatar as part of a regional tour to arrange safe passage for those afghans still left in the country who have the right to settle in the uk. For example, those who worked for british forces. There are also a number of british nationals left in the country, thought to be in the low hundreds. The Prime Minister says the taliban must prioritise safe passage for those who want to leave. Our chief international Corrrespondent Lyse Doucet has been speaking to one contractor who worked at the british embassy. Christmas parties, diplomatic dinners, daily meals. Head Chef Hameed was part of british Embassy Life in kabulfor 13 years. This was the last meeting of Kitchen Staff with the british Ambassador Sir Laurie bristow. He spent days at Kabul Airport overseeing the massive airlift. Hameed and about 60 others were left behind because they weren� t employed by the Foreign Office but through a private contractor. Translation we worked so hard, i even during the covid lockdown, l and we were left behind. Ifeel i have been betrayed. If they don� t take us out of here, it is a big betrayal. Now this family of five young children is hiding at home. Many are doing the same. Today, in the Gulf State of qatar, the bbc asked the Foreign Secretary about the contractors. He admitted that many need help. We will not be recognising the taliban any time in the foreseeable future, but i think there is an important scope for Engagement And Dialogue and to test the intentions and indeed the assurances that have already been made by the taliban. Safe passage out of afghanistan for. And i� m afraid to my friend from the bbc i didn� t mention it, but to those afghan workers or contractors who still want to come to the uk or indeed other countries. There is a battle at home. Brave women take to the streets in the western city of herat. Don� t be scared, we are all together, is their rallying cry worried the taliban will stop them from working or studying as they did before. This woman has moved from one Safe House to the next ever since the taliban swept into kabul. She had been working on issues like gender and Human Rights. The taliban told her, don� t come to the office for now. Many fear they will never be allowed to go back. As a human, it� s my right to get education. It� s my right to have a good job. Unfortunately, this situation that came in in afghanistan, all of my dreams destroyed. Kabul looks much the same, but it� s not. A nation at war now seems to be a nation in waiting. So many afghans wondering, worrying, what kind of new government will emerge with all of its rules and regulations . Many others still asking ever so anxiously how they can escape. For now, so many lives are on pause. Lyse doucet, Bbc News, kabul. We can speak now to david davis, the Conservative Mp for haltemprice and howden. Thank you forjoining us. The uk left people behind. In order to get them out, the Uk Government now has to rely on the taliban, will those people get out . I to rely on the taliban, will those people get out . To rely on the taliban, will those people get out . I think so. I think the purpose people get out . I think so. I think the purpose of people get out . I think so. I think the purpose of the people get out . I think so. I think the purpose of the foreign people get out . I think so. I think i the purpose of the Foreign Secretary visiting qatar was to talk to a number of people including the taliban and we have our representatives speaking directly to them. And the aim is to get them to abide by their own undertaking. And they were going to allow free movement out of the country for those who wanted to leave. And obviously those with threats will be the forefront of those. We are not the forefront of those. We are not the only country that has still got people to get out. The united states have and all of the countries want to get people out and one of the things the Foreign Secretary will be doing is talking to the front nine countries. Pakistan, and so on and to countries who will be halfway houses like Turkey And Qatar itself. All of those will be important in the relationship with the taliban government and ensuring the taliban government and ensuring the taliban government and ensuring the taliban government and all the undertakings it gave to the americans which were pretty much listed in the un Security Council Resolution i think it was on monday proposed by americans and friends themselves which said we must ensure there is no terrorism in the region and ensure that Human Rights particularly women are protected and humanitarian criteria are met and of course all of these things giving people the right to believe if they so choose. ,. , ,. , so choose.

I think different countries have counterparts . I think different countries have different counterparts . I think different countries have different dependence and different groups of people depend on them and to be fair to the Foreign Office they have got 15,000 people out since the middle of august and that is not a small number of people. And they are committed and the second getting people out in april before the beginning of the Crisis And Bear in mind we keep forgetting this in all of this criticism that on the friday he was being attacked as it where everybody was forecasting their committee was forecasting that they would stand until at least the end of the year.

When you say Dominic Raab went along with everyone in August Injuly his cabinet colleagues thought the game was going to be up very quickly and Mr Wallace if i could finish now, Mr Wallace said that he worked very quickly to get interpreters out. There is a stark contrast being led by the Defence Secretary saying this is what we did and this was the lack of urgency from the Foreign Secretary. Of urgency from the Foreign Secretary of urgency from the foreign secreta. ,. Secretary. The Oint Intelligence Committee secretary. The jOint Intelligence Committee which secretary.

We will find out how this story and many others are covered in the paper is at 10 30pm on 11 30pm this evening. Sport, and for a full round up from the bbc sport centre, here� s austin halewood. Good evening. Hi, good evening. We� ve got another busy night of sport ahead, but we start with football because england are back in action for the first time since their euro 2020 final defeat to italy. They� re taking On Hungary In Budapest in their first of three World Cup qualifiers over the next week. And they� ve. England have won all three qualifiers so far and are top of Group I. Northern ireland are also in action. They� re away in lithuania for their crucial qualifier in group c. They� ve just got one Point Tfrom their two games so far, and they. The fourth test between England And India is nicely poised after a dramatic first day at the oval. Just like in the last test at headingley, india were bowled out cheaply in their first innings, but the late wicket of England Captainjoe Root has kept the visitors� hopes alive. England have got the crucial wicked moments after he passed 50. They eventually bowled them out for 191 but lost early wickets of their own at the start of their reply. He fell in the last ten minutes of the play to leave the match. In the last ten minutes of the play to leave the match. Sometimes when a team tets to leave the match. Sometimes when a team gets bowled to leave the match. Sometimes when a team gets bowled out to leave the match. Sometimes when a team gets bowled out theres to leave the match. Sometimes when a team gets bowled out theres a to leave the match. Sometimes when a team gets bowled out theres a Lot Team gets bowled out there� s a lot of wickets it� s almost kind of like what happens in the game and the day speeds up and wickets seem to happen and that they way the game went today. Tomorrow it could be completely different. Hopefully it is because we can bypass them. Emma raducanu� s yearjust gets better and better. She� s now through to the third round of the Us Open on her debut in the tournament. She beat china� s Zhang Shaui in straight sets. She broke twice in the first set to take it 6 2, Showing Aggresive and confident tennis from the start. There were four gold medals for great britain On Day Nine she will face spain on saturday for a place in the fourth round. You can never be sure that a player is going to go and build on what they have done but the early stages of what we are seeing i would say she is ahead of where you would have thought she would be right now and she is still going. She could maybe go further. Looks like there could be moulded to come from her. More to come from her. There were four gold medals for great britain On Day Nine of the paralympics in tokyo, with history made and records broken. Paralympics gb stay second in the medals table. Well, Javelin Thrower Dan pembroke set a new paralympic and European Record on a brilliant games debut.

And dame Sarah Storey won her 17th gold to become britain� s most successful paralympian. It� s nearly 30 years since she won her first title aged 1a at The Barcelona Games in 1992. Today, victory in the cit 5 roadrace saw her ride into the history books. The top 30 golfers on the Pga Tour are teeing up in atlanta with the Winter Set to park it on a massive £10 million. The event is handicapped and based on each Player Standings throughout the season so far. Worry mcelroy the winner in 2019 starts the tournament because of that on to under par and he made a good start to Opening Round and he is far better than that already on 600 and great Recovery Shot setting up 600 and great Recovery Shot setting up a birdie on the fourth and american patrick is the man to catch. He� s already on 11 under Declare Spaniard john. That is all of their ports for now. As the new School Year gets underway students in england can expect a � much more normal experience�. That was the assurance from Education Secretary Gavin williamson today. Masks and bubbles may have gone but secondary pupils are still being encouraged to take regular tests and schools are being asked to ensure classrooms are well ventilated. Our Education Editor Branwen jeffreys reports from colchester. Circle five times on each side. The first test is the hardest. For these year sevens, the first time in secondary school, too. The parents told me it is worth it, as a step back towards normality. We were happy to comply with what we need to do. I think it is the best for everyone. I think because of the last year we have had has been so unsettling, just to be normal, get back to it. Certain things coming into day for our first ever day. She is coming in and having to do a lateral flow test. The sooner we move away from that stuff, the better. I appreciate they have got to do it at the moment. I hope corona doesn� t spread any more like how it did last year, how itjust happened so quickly and largely. School staff have been vaccinated. Precautions today where to get accurate results. After this, teenagers will be asked to test at home. Testing is now the main precaution in england� s schools. Masks have gone for pupils and so have big Year Group bubbles. But both of those could be back on a local basis if cases rise. It is now much more up to schools to decide what precautions to put in place. There is a lot less signage up. No one way signs any more. For head teachers, more leeway to make decisions. What we do Know now is what has worked over the last years, we can draw on may be putting bubbles together again, we can introduce a in different areas, making sure Seating Plans are set up in the right way. There is lots and lots of different things that we can draw on from what we Know has worked in the last year. For year 11, it is a crucial gcse year, so what are their hopes . Exams at the end of the year. Hopefully not another lockdown. I am quite relieved, because i felt quite trapped in the mask, it was annoying going Round School in the mask all the time. I hope it helps peoples mental health, because i Know lots ofl people in my friendship groups, i they have had a hit on their mental health. Pupils went back to school in scotland two weeks ago. They have kept masks for the start of term but even so, cases have risen rapidly. A reminder the same may happen at schools open in the rest of the uk. Branwen jeffreys, Bbc News. And now for the latest Uk Coronavirus figures. They show there were just over 38,000 new infections recorded in the latest 24 hour period, which means an average of 33,736 per day in the last week. In the latest 24 hour period, which means an average of 33,736 of all the musical reunions we fantasise about, surely the return of abba has to be up there at the top . Well, it� s about to happen. Bjorn, agnetha, Benny And Anni frid are coming together again after a0 years. A new album is on its way, and they� ll appear in concert, but in a way they� ve never done before.

Indeed, a new Abba Album and this video of the group finally back together. First it was just twoj songs, and then we said, well, maybe we. Should do a few others. What do you say, girls . And they said yes. I asked them, well, why dont we do a whole album . Waterloo. It is 47 years is the Band Hit the Big Time with the eurovision winning waterloo, the beginning of a series of Number One hits and global success. You can dance. Ladies and gentlemen, abba. Eight years later, this was a final Tv Appearance on british television. Every year since then, the question. Will they ever perform again together . And the answer is finally yes, sort of. The reason the announcement is taking place here in the Olympic Park is because this is where the abba concerts will be taking place. But you� re not going to be seeing abba as they are today but rather with a degree of digital youthful enhancement. The group has been performing in a studio, and with the aid of Motion Capture digital effects, the image we will see and hear on stage will be the Band Members in their 70s heyday. To create, after the musicals and movies, another abba experience. What makes this moment different is the new music. The new album. The reunion, a0 years on. David sillito, Bbc News. And stay with us, because in about ten minutes� time, we� ll be playing abba� s second new song and getting reaction from fans, critics and a Tribute Band. Now it� s time for a look at the weather with stav danaos. Hello there. It� s been another day of mixed fortunes with regards to sunshine. Scotland, Northern Ireland, northern england saw The Sunniest skies today, but it was much cloudier further south. Our area of high pressure� s still with us. It� s going to feed in more cloud again across the uk through the course of the night. Parts of that cloud will be thick enough for the Odd Spot of drizzle, but most places will be dry. And there will be further clear spells for western scotland, parts of Northern Ireland and maybe Southern England as well. Where we have the clear skies, again, it could turn quite chilly. Otherwise, for most, it� S Double figure values. So, for friday, then, very little change. We start off rather cloudy once again, but into the afternoon, good sunny breaks will appear across scotland, parts of Northern Ireland, maybe north west england, and perhaps Southern England and into south wales. Where you get The Sunshine, low 20s celsius. Where you hold onto the cloud, mid to upper teens. Now, as we head into the weekend, saturday looks like being pretty similar to friday a lot of cloud around, limited sunshine. Sunday, we could see a bit of rain across the north, but signs of it starting to warm up in the south. Hello, this is Bbc News with me, james reynolds.

A0 years on, pop Legends Abba Delight fans by announcing a new album and concerts, with a difference. The us Supreme Court has voted not to block a law banning most abortions in texas. The law makes it illegal to terminate pregnancies after six weeks, even in cases of rape or incest. It� s the most dramatic restriction so far since the Roe V wade judgement of 1973 which legalised abortion across the united states. Our correspondent in Washington Nomia Iqbal has the details. This texas law basically allows any individual to sue those who help a woman get an abortion. Now, the Supreme Court was asked by pro Abortion Rights groups and providers to block thIs Law. But in a ruling, that was dominated by a mainly conservative bench, they voted to keep it in place. Now, the bench didn� T Comment on the constitutionality of thIs Law, which basically leaves it is open to potentially be appealed. But experts are worried that other states could bring in similar laws which would eliminate the guarantee of Roe V wade, which is of course the landmark ruling that legalised abortion across america in 1973. It is a huge milestone for lots of pro life groups that exist in this country that have tried to roll back access to the procedure for many, many years. And, of course, a huge step back for women� s rights groups, who say this is just going push Women Into Crossing State lines to get an abortion, it� ll affect those who are poor, it� ll affect minority women as well. In terms of the reaction of President Biden, well, before the Supreme Court ruled to keep thIs Law in place, he had commented on his concern about it. Now, he is a religious man, he� s a devout catholic, and in the past he has said that he believes that life begins at the point of conception. But he has also said he would not impose his view on anybody else. And he has said that thIs Law is concerning and his administration will do whatever it takes to protect the rights of women. In reaction, President Biden vowed to protect Abortion Rights. He said the law was extreme and. And that his a dministration is. There have been protests in texas, the us� s second most populous state. But speaking to the bbc, the man who authored the law defended the decision. We have talked to women in those situations. We wouldnt punish the unborn child because of the horrible act done to the mother. That unborn child is a separate human being. That unborn child in her Mothers Womb is the most innocent, the most Helpless A Human can ever be, and she deserves our protection.

The A5 Year old University Ship had been missing since March Of 2009 and we had this update. This missing since March Of 2009 and we had this update. Had this update. This is the tenth Da Tolice had this update. This is the tenth Day Police have had this update. This is the tenth Day Police have been had this update. This is the tenth Day Police have been searching i had this update. This is the tenth L Day police have been searching this area and if you can see the road to the village is still sealed off tonight and there is still very much the Focal Point of this police investigation. As well as the woodlands here, the main Search Area has been the two Gravel Pits over there, both of which are now private fishing lakes. Today, Drone Footage has shown us for the first time exactly where police are searching and what they have been doing. We can see that one of the lakes, the smaller of the two, has now been almost drained of water with police carrying out a Fingertip Search of the lake bed. We have also learned today that officers are using specially trained dogs that can locate bodies and Human Remains even after many years. So these images should us exactly the links police are going to to investigate this development certainly one of the most significant in recent years. During this 12 year investigation, this is the first time that police have searched this area, refusing tonight though to still say exactly what has brought them to this location. They have declined to comment further today, reiterating really what they have already said that this is just one of several active lines of inquiry. We have heard today though and there have been reports that since the police have been searching here, new leads have been searching here, new leads have emerged which are now being investigated. As to how the police will be here, one villager said the date they have been told by police they� ll be searching for two weeks. Today as we have heard is day ten. Tonight, also, we have heard from claudia� s Motherjones Lawrence and she told the bbc if she was not informed beforehand about the lake here being drained and she was not happy about that. She said that she had not spoken to North Yorkshire Police since last friday. She said that she was living day by day at the moment, and was very fearful every day about what she would be told. 100 organisations, from charities to teachers, have signed an Open Letter to the Prime Minister urging him not to go ahead with the planned cut to Universal Credit. An extra £20 a week was added to the scheme at the start of the pandemic as a temporary measure and is due to be phased out from the end of this month. The government says its focus now is on creating more jobs. Here� s our social Affairs Correspondent michael buchanan. I don� t Know why they call it early morning work. It� s the first day of school for douglas and the resumption of his daily trek. The eight year old and his mum, tasha, travel eight miles on two buses. As douglas didn� t get a place at a nearby primary after they moved home last year. The family of six rely on Universal Credit to top up dad� s wages as a builder. The Bus Journey costs £5. 20 daily and is reimbursed by their council each term, but the family have to pay up front and the looming Benefit Cut will create tough choices. If we lose that money, he will only be able to go to school basically three days a week becausecos we wont be able to afford it. Because otherwise were going to have to cut our Food Bill down, and then obviously what do we do . Do we eat or do we get into school . And it sounds bad, but educations going to have to go. It just annoys me that they give us it in one hand, and were a working family, ive always worked. Im only not working because obviously ive got The One year old, so were stuck. I dont want to rely on Universal Credit, but we have no choice. Last week at Bridlington Beach in yorkshire, Unite The Union organised this Sand Sculpture to highlight their opposition to the government� s plan. Today� s Open Letter to the Prime Minister is signed by groups representing education, housing, the economy, Health Care and anti poverty campaigners. Were facing a crossroads where the government faces a choice. It has said its committed to improving the lives i | of people on the lowest incomes, | but the depth of that commitment will be revealed this autumn when it | decides whether or not to go ahead | with the cut to the incomes of i the poorest people in our country. Ministers say the extra £20 a week was always meant to be temporary and they� ll bew now be focused to help people either find work or earn more. For award winning Opera Singer Emilie parry williams, work is currently not an option. The pandemic forced her onto Universal Credit like millions of others after all her work was cancelled. The arts have still not recovered. She still has a few bookings, so she finds the benefits cut extraordinary. We don� t want to be on Universal Credit. We want to get back to work. So, then to reduce that money any more when it� s incredibly low anyway, it feels like a betrayal. For many, the Benefit Cut will coincide with steep Energy Price rises, but it will save the treasury billions of pounds. Michael buchanan, Bbc News.

Now finally the weather. Hello there. Its been another day of mixed fortunes with regards to sunshine. Scotland, Northern Ireland, northern england saw The Sunniest skies today, but it was much cloudier further south. Our area of high pressures still with us. Its going to feed in more cloud again across the uk through the course of the night. Parts of that cloud will be thick enough for the Odd Spot of drizzle, but most places will be dry. And there will be further clear spells for western scotland, parts of Northern Ireland and maybe Southern England as well. Where we have the clear skies, again, it could turn quite chilly. Otherwise, for most, itS Double figure values. So, for friday, then, very little change. We start off rather cloudy once again, but into the afternoon, good sunny breaks will appear across scotland, parts of Northern Ireland, maybe north west england, and perhaps Southern England and into south wales. Where you get The Sunshine, low 20s celsius. Where you hold onto the cloud, mid to upper teens. Now, as we head into the weekend, saturday looks like being pretty similar to friday a lot of cloud around, limited sunshine. Sunday, we could see a bit of rain across the north, but signs of it starting to warm up in the south. Hello im christian fraser, our top stories.
