As Housing Secretary. And Emma Raducanu returns home after that historic Us Open win in new york. Last night i actuallyjust re watched the final and tried to relive a couple of the moments and remember how it felt. So it is sinking in a little bit more. Hello and welcome to bbc news. The government is expected to announce big Changes Today to the covid rules for International Travel. Initially the changes will apply to people arriving in england. Theres been speculation thaT The Traffic Light System of red, amber and green lists will be simplified, with the Amber List effectively dropped. And fully vaccinated travellers may no longer have to take costly Pcr Tests. Our Transport Correspondent Caroline Davies has the latest. Sunshine, but no one� s sunbathing. In a normal year, 80 of the guests aT This hotel in turkey would have been british. Turkey went on the Red List in may, meaning anyone travelling from there to the uk has to quarantine in a hotel. Since then, it has been a difficult summer here. BuT They are holding out hope it could change. We have just about survived, but it has been very, very challenging. AT The moment, we are very, very quiet. To geT The Go Ahead aT This stage would be great. It could take us through to The End of october. Maybe even into november. AT The moment, it is very, very important. There are now 62 countries on the Red List, including pakistan and mexico. The government will announce changes to the lisT Today. There are other moves ahead, too. The Travel Industry hopes thaT The Traffic Light System, where countries are currently divided into green, Amber Or Red, will be simplified. It comes at a crucial time. We are heading towards 17, 18 months as an industry pretty much without revenue. We have a further Scheme Ending in september, we really are as an industry at a point where either we get some form of supporT To get us through the winter or we open up International Travel. The industry also wants expensive Pcr Tests that all travellers have to do when they arrive in the uk replaced by the cheaper lateral Flow Tests for vaccinated passengers. It worries thaT The cost is putting off travellers. Previously. We didnt have the protection. Everything has changed now. We have 80 of the country vaccinated, how long do we have to go on . The adminfor the admin for Pcr Testing has been thaT They are more sensitive and can pick up cases earlier and, unlike lateral Flow Test, they can be used to identify variants of consent. Whether the government will scrap Pcr Tests altogether is still in the balance. ,. ,. , ~ , balance. The ration for keeping Pcr Testin in balance. The ration for keeping Pcr Testing in particular rather than lateral Flow Testing as it does enable you to do the Genome Sequencing of potential new variants, and thats been their argument for keeping it as a Pcr Test. But we also wanT To try to help people get back to life as normal, so if that case can be made four changes then obviously we will consider that. Some scientists argue they are still needed. I would like to see Pcr Tests remain because theyve given us so much information already from the sequencing. So we know when delta was introduced thaT This virus was imported over 500 times and we wouldnt have that information if we werent doing the screening and a sequencing associated with that. The government has said its top priority is to protect Public Health and that decisions on the Traffic Light System are informed by the latest Risk Assessment from Thejoint Biosecurity Centre and widely Public Health factors. A decision on what happens nexT The Test And Travel will be announced later today. The industry is some there were hoping for something that will fill up the sunbeds. Caroline davies, bbc news.

You can go if you are double vaccinated a return aT The Red List remains for those countries where there are high levels of variants of consent or high levels of transmission. There is a thoughT To simplify it because the way it is operating for the Summer Season and spring has caused a lot of worry for consumers and travellers. You will remember when portugalflipped consumers and travellers. You will remember when portugal flipped very quickly, mexico again, people almost caught on the hop desperately trying to get back quickly. That is really damaged consumer confidence.

There are two things to consider when we sense, is it wise . There are two things to consider when we talk| things to consider when we talk abouT Testing people coming to the uk. One is that initially we were trying to keep covid cases low so didnt want people coming if they were infected because we had covid cases here. That is no longer the case. Very high levels of transmission in the uk. It doesnt really make sense that we are putting a lot of effort into trying to stop more cases coming in if they arejusT To stop more cases coming in if they are just delta, that we already have. A lateral Flow Test is good enough to get people who are infected to detect most of those people and geT Them to quarantine until they are negative. As has been mentioned, the other big concern is variance. Can we detect people who may be bringing dangerous variants into the uk . This is not a one size fits all problem. Countries in the eu are doing a lot of really good sequencing, and we know what variants are circulating there. AT The moment it is pretty much just delta. There are many other countries where we dont have good sequencing information. It might be that one solution is that we randomly select some people from flights from countries where we dont know what is circulating and continue to do Pcr Testing on those so we continue to geT The picture of what variants might be coming from those places.

Tt2 truth is that we dont sequence all of the Pcr Tests are getting anyway. AT The moment it is about 5 . That is equal across people who are coming from germany, portugal, all sorts of countries. It would probably be better for us to be focusing Sequencing Effort on countries where we dont know what is circulating by where we have an indication thaT There might be a new variant because countries like france and germany are doing a lot of sequencing already. We dont need to be having on top of that necessarily end we would probably be better focusing that Sequencing Effort on countries where we dont have that information, so we could possibly get more information for the same amount of Sequencing Effort.

From october 11th, people will need a pass showing theyve been vaccinated or a negative lateral Flow Test result. It comes at a time of rising Covid Infection rates in wales. Hywel griffith reports. After bouncing back into life around britain over the summer, nightclubs are still for some a Front Line in trying to tackle the pandemic. In scotland, from october the 1st, entry will depend on having proof of vaccination, while in england, the idea has been dropped. The welsh government has decided to make Covid Passes compulsory instead meaning Youll Need to show your Vaccine Status or proof of negative lateral Flow Test to get in something the industry has not welcomed. We really need to build the nightclubs back up. The industry has been hit very hard. So just giving more challenges to the custom, we wanT To make it very easy for customers to enjoy themselves. Matches at larger Football And Rugby stadiums are included too. Travelling supporters will need to show a Covid Pass wherever they have come from. But it will depend on people taking the tests to give their own results. We will be making the existing Covid Pass compulsory for everyone attending high risk venues, such as a rugby or a football match, in future. Demonstrating that you have a Covid Pass will become a necessary condition of admission. Other measures like the use of facemasks in shops and the advice to work from home are already in place in wales, and failed to stop the Summer Spread of the virus. Ministers hope Covid Passes will bring a new line of resistance. Hywel griffith, bbc news, cardiff. Italy has become the first country in europe to make it compulsory for all workers to have a covid Green Pass. From mid october, about 23 Million people will need to prove theyve been vaccinated, had a negative test, or recovered from the virus. Infections in italy are rising, and a third of the country is not fully jabbed, but workers who dont have a Pass Face Suspension without pay, and large fines.

Dominic raab, Demoted Tojustice secretary, sat opposite the Prime Minister around the cabineT Table, as did mr Raabs Replacement as foreign secretary, liz truss, and new Housing Secretary Michael Gove. In his new role as Housing Secretary, Michael Gove has paused controversial Government Planning reforms. Its understood Mr Gove wants to discuss the reforms with conservative mps and understand their concerns. Heres our political correspondent nick eardley. Borisjohnson has promised to build 300,000 extra houses a year by 2025, and to do that he was planning to Liberalise Planning Laws to make it much easier for developers to build new buildings in certain parts of england. BuT That plan was extremely controversial, not least among conservative mps. They feared it would undermine local democracy, and here at westminster perhaps just as significantly they feared it would have a big impact on the Conservative Party in the south of england as well. When the Housing Secretary Robert Jenrick was sacked on wednesday, there was a lot of speculation thaT This could open the door to a rethink on those plans, and it seems that Michael Gove is at least prepared to think abouT The idea of redoing these plans in a slightly different way. I understand that he has paused putting these plans through parliament, he wants to speak to conservative mps to figure out whaT Their concerns are, and, in the words of one government source, take stock. That has been welcomed by the tories who were deeply sceptical abouT These Planning Reforms. It does not mean theyve definitely been scrapped, but it certainly leaves a question open abouT Their future. Sir Roger Gale is the conservative mp for North Thanet in kent. Hejoins me now.

The Police Watchdog says tackling violence against women and girls should be as much of a priority as fighting terrorism. The report was commissioned by the Home Secretary Priti patel after the murder of Sarah Everard who disappeared in south london.

Matt graveling reports. An epidemic of violence. The words used in a new reporT To describe attacks on women. These findings follow a six Month Investigation commissioned by the Home Secretary, following the murder of 33 year old Sarah Everard. I think the will of the public has been very, very clearly expressed. Whatever the reasons are for it not been prioritised to date, there is a very, very clear indicator to us as set out in this reporT That it must be prioritised from now on in. In the year ending march 2020, there were 1. 6 million female victims of domestic abuse in england and wales. 618,000 female victims of sexual assault, and 892,000 female victims of stalking. The report said that while police have made vast improvements in dealing with violence against females, there are continued failings, and called for a fundamental cross system change, asking for iT To be prioritised as highly as countering terrorism. Suzanne Van Hagan was killed by her partner in 2013. Prior to her death, incidents of domestic abuse were reported to police, yet no effective action was taken to protect her.

Charity womens aid says Domestic Violence increased significant during the pandemic. We have to remember that domestic Abuse And Violence against women is a gendered crime, they are gendered issues, so if you look aT The stats for last year, the number of cases that were in court, some 92,000 plus, 84 of the victims were female and over 92 of the perpetrators or defendants, if you like, were male.

He is being sued by Virgina Giuffre for alleged sexual abuse. Heres our legal correspondent dominic casciani. Overnight, documents were published in the us court dealing with the Virginia Giuffre Case with allegations with the Virginia Giuffre Case of allegations against Prince Andrew. The judge ordered that she and her lawyers could serve the case on Prince Andrews us based attorney, a lawyer in los angeles. Serving means putting the allegations in the hands of somebody who is either the defendant or their legal team. That is effectively the really important step to then progress the case. What has happened so far is that lawyers for Prince Andrew have said he has not been properly served, so the case could not progress. Thejudge has said we have goT To get on with this and he has made the order. In the uk, where they are trying to serve the documents on the prince, the High Court has said it is giving the princes lawyers until next friday to challenge a decision thaT The High Court here should be involved. There is a lot in play, but what is going on here, time is running out and it looks increasingly the prince may face a situation where he has to accept service, so theres a lot going on.

We will hear a bit more from her injust a moment but we will start with cricket. The English Cricket board will make a decision in the next few days as to whether the mens and womens teams will fulfil their planned tours in pakistan next month or not. It is after New Zealand pulled out of their tour this morning because of a security alert. A decision was made just minutes before the first of three one day internationals. In response, pakistan posted a terse statement on Social Media which reads earlier i spoke toJournalist Abid Hussain in islamabad who was outside the stadium as the announcement was made. The news came as a complete shock out of the blue. In fact, when the new started filtering and, initially it was said a couple of players were getting covid. There was Miscommunication And Misinformation going on and subsequently, things started to unravel after that. There was complete chaos. People are right now analysing the hoT Tempered reaction. People are blaming the kiwis for making a hasty decision. These accusations have been flying all over the place. But aT This point in time there is absolutely no parity. But aT This point in time there is absolutely no clarity. There was a sense of optimism coming down from the pakistan Cricket Board thaT The teams would come and play. This shakes the confidence of the other teams to come in and for pakistan Cricket Board, its a huge shock financially as well as with their credibility. A lot of things are at stake so there will be lots of ramifications from this. England womens Captain Steph Houghton has had to withdraw from the squad because of an ankle injury.

The 18 year old landed in the Uk Yesterday and went home to bromley, five days after winning the tournament in new york. The victory means shes broken into the top 30 of the World Rankings and is british number one. She spoke to Bbc Breakfast earlier. I think it is gradually sinking in a bit more because Last Night i actuallyjust re watched the final and tried to relive a couple of the moments and remember how it felt. When i was watching it it feels like thats not me whos playing and pulling off some of those shots. It feels like its someone else, but its still such a whirlwind of an experience. I have loved every moment of it, but it is something that is very difficulT To fully comprehend. Well, emmas rapid assent has been part of a great summer for british sport, but can elite success translate to greater participation at grass Roots Level .

A Court In Vienna has begun hearing a case againsT The austrian government over its handling of a Coronavirus Outbreak at a ski resort. The civil lawsuit concerns cases at ischgl known as the Ibiza Of The Alps in march 2020. Its the first of 15 cases filed in austria and germany, accusing the authorities of failing to respond quickly enough to covid outbreaks. Our Correspondent Bethany Bell is in vienna and told us more abouT The case. This case involves actually just one family. It involves the widow and the son of an austrian journalist, a 72 year old man who died after Contracting Coronavirus after a Skiing Holiday in ischgl in early march 2020, and they say the austrian government mismanaged the evacuation of the resort when it emerged there was coronavirus there, and that it was chaotic. They say he caught coronavirus on the bus as he was leaving and it was badly handled. The austrian government for its part has said over the past few months that it acted according to the information it had aT The time. Now, if everyone is watching this particular case, it is because its being organised by a Consumer Protection Group in austria that say they know of potential several thousand other people who could potentially also bring in lawsuits against austria or possibly have some kind of class action suit. So what happens with this one small family could then unleash more court cases. BuT The other thing that could also happen, there could be moves possibly for a settlement, which would be a different picture again, so we are watching the Court Case Today in vienna. The cinemas may have reopened but Box Office takings are still lower than they were before the pandemic.

The industry is hoping thaT The release of the delayed James Bond Film will bring back movie fans our Business Correspondent Victoria Fritz reports, and a warning there are some Flashing Images. Can ijust have one nice evening, please, before the world explodes . Was there ever a more apt Movie Title . There couldnt be more weighing on the shoulders of this man. After two false starts, there is no time like the presenT To release the biggest film of the year. Tickets are already on sale here and they are going all in. Very important for us. It is a big film aT The best of times buT This year especially it is going to be a larger cultural moment, i think, as people kind of get over the lasT Two years. At our cinemas, we are doing themed cocktails, we are putting on parties, we are doing midnight screenings and obviously lots of showings and so, yes, it is very exciting. Every cinema is gambling on 007 changing the narrative for the industry but is bond as much a part of the problem as the solution . After the financial crisis, many films were just deemed too risky or too expensive to make and generally speaking it was the tried and tested formulas that goT The green light, and over time that has led to a reliance on the big blockbuster franchises to keep cinemas afloat. Time is running out. Box office takings are well down so far this year, less than 90 Million was made in the four weeks to the 12th of september. Over the same period in 2019, you would be looking at over 125 million. The industry believes it is staring at a £2 billion Coronavirus Hole in its finances. The pandemic has had an impact on the number of films being made but also the type of movies we will be seeing more of in the future. We are actually going to see a lot of films that were made during the pandemic, so you have got horror movies, you have got indie movies, very kind of two handed dramas, so that is really interesting. Obviously people will be thinking about streaming as much as the Big Screen as well because really now a lot of people are going to be taking their movies onto the small screen faster than they did before. For many, the cinema is a Rite Of Passage a first date, a firstjob, a regular saturday night. The question is whether streaming has written the big Screen Experience out of the story of film.

Lets stay with sport and british tennis star Emma Raducanu has spoken about her First Night back at home after her triumph at Us Open final. Natalie pirks reports, and a warning there are Flashing Images in her report since she burst onto our screens at wimbledon last summer, life has been a whirlwind for Emma Raducanu. But as she arrived home in bromley yesterday, there were no parties. Instead, she did the one thing she hadnt yet managed to do since her astonishing Us Open win. Last night i actuallyjust re watched the final and tried to relive a couple of the moments and remember how it felt. It is sinking in a little bit more. It is something that is very difficulT To fully comprehend. For the rest of us watching, it was nail biting stuff, but not for a teenager with nerves of steel. Personally, i didnt feel any stress.

Now its time for a look aT The weather with stav. Hello there. Thursday was a lovely day across the country, with many places staying dry with long spells of sunshine. And today is not looking too bad particularly across parts of england and wales. Lovely sunny skies across hertfordshire, feeling quite warm to into the afternoon, but its not dry everywhere. We have been seeing a Weather Front working into western Areas bringing some rain and some of it quite heavy and the wind has been a feature, as well. Isobars fairly close together across Areas'>Northern Areas so breezy day here versus southern and eastern Areas which have lighter winds and good spells of sunshine. This motherfront and draped across Western Parts of the country, Northern Ireland, western scotland, through the Irish Sea down to wales in the South West. The heaviest of the rain i think for western scotland, light and patchy further south but a lovely afternoon to come across many central and eastern Areas as temperatures reached 21 22. A little Bit Cooler where we have the rain. Through tonight, that Weather Front weakens as it pushes further eastwards. Draped across parts of scotland, northern england, through the Irish Sea, wales and the South West, by The End of the night. To the East And West of it, it should be mainly dry with variable clouds and clear spells. Nowhere particularly cold overnight. Some uncertainty to the forecast into the week. It looks like on saturday, a weak Weather Front line across more than northern and Western Parts of the uk bringing further patchy rain aT Times. I think mainly across scotland, northern and western england and towards wales, again, Areas'>South Eastern Areas should see the best of the sunshine. It will feel quite warm into the afternoon this afternoon in the south east. We see more momentum, as we head into sunday, this Weather Front eventually starts to push toward the eastern side of the country as we pick up more of a westerly flow. Initially, rather cloudy and wet across northern and central Areas. Then The Rain Will Invigorate and lie across more Eastern Parts of the country. We could see localised flooding in one or two places by The End of sunday. Heavy and persistent rain in places. Further west, we should see sunshine developing. One or two showers, temperatures not quite as high i think is what we will see on saturday. That Weather Front fizzles away on sunday night. This area of High Pressure wants to from the South West into the start of next week and many places will be dry to starT The new week with variable cloud and some good spells of sunshine.

So it is sinking in a little bit more. Hello, welcome to bbc news. The government is expected to announce big Changes Today to the covid rules for International Travel. Initially the changes will apply to people arriving in england. Theres been speculation thaT The Traffic Light System of red, amber and green lists will be simplified, with the Amber List effectively dropped. And fully vaccinated travellers may no longer have to take costly Pcr Tests. Our Transport Correspondent Caroline Davies has the latest. Sunshine, but no ones sunbathing. In a normal year, 80 of the guests aT This hotel in turkey would have been british. Turkey went on the Red List in may meaning anyone travelling from there to the uk has to quarantine in a hotel. Since then, its been a difficult summer, buT Theyre holding out hope it could change. We have just about survived, but it has been very, very challenging. AT The moment, were very, very quiet. To geT The Go Ahead aT This stage would be great. It could take us through to The End of october. Maybe even into november. So, aT The moment, it is very, very important. There are now 62 countries on the Red List, including pakistan and mexico. The government will announce changes to the lisT Today. There are other moves ahead, too. The Travel Industry hopes thaT The Traffic Light System where countries are currently divided into green, Amber Or Red will be simplified and opened up. It comes at a crucial time. We are heading towards 17 18 months as an industry pretty much without revenue. We have the Furlough Scheme ending in september we really are, as an industry, at a point where either we get some form of supporT To get us through this winter, or we open up International Travel. The industry also wants the more expensive Pcr Tests that all travellers have to do when they arrive in the uk to be replaced by the cheaper lateral Flow Tests. It worries the cost is putting off travellers. Previously, people talked abouT The need for Pcr I tests because we didnt have the vaccination that protected us from all known strains. Everythings changed now. Weve got 80 of the country vaccinated. I i mean, how long do we have to go on . I the argument for Pcr Testing has been thaT They are more sensitive, and so can pick up cases earlier, and, unlike lateral Flow Tests, they can be used to identify variants of concern. Whether the government will scrap Pcr Tests altogether is still in the balance. The rationale for keeping the Pcr Testing in particular, rather than lateral Flow Testing, is it does enable you to do the Genome Sequencing of potential new variants. And thats been the argument for keeping it as a Pcr Test. But look, we also wanT To try to help people get back to life as normal, so if the case can be made for changes, then obviously we will consider that. Some scientists argue they are still needed. I would like to see Pcr Tests remain, because they have given us so much information already from the sequencing. So we know when delta was introduced, when the Delta Variant came in, thaT This virus was imported over 500 times. And we would not have that information if we were not doing the Screening And Sequencing that is associated with that. The government has said its priority is to protect Public Health, and that decisions on the Traffic Light System are informed by the latest Risk Assessment from Thejoint Biosecurity Centre and wider Public Health factors. A decision on What Happens Next with tests and travel will be announced later today. The industry is hoping for something that will fill up the sunbeds. Caroline davies, bbc news.

Well, lets go back to what happened what has happened today. Well, lets go back to what happened in what has happened today. Well, lets l go back to what happened in december when the High Court ruled in favour of Ciaran Bell and the arguments that she had made a Kira Bell. This should be subjecT To Judicial Review, thaT The court should get involved. The High Court said thaT The courts should be involved and made a finding and issued guidance along the lines of the requests of Kira Bell and her team. What said along the lines of the requests of Kira Belland herteam. What said in essence was that any decision to prescribe puberty blocking drugs for a young person, certainly under 16 but probably under 17, two, and 18, that decision would have to be made by a court. So what happened was the Tavistock And Portman trust sought leave to appeal, that appeal was heard, thejudgment was handed down this afternoon, and whaT The judges aT The Court Of Appeal found was thaT The other quart was quite wrong, that it was inappropriate for the courT To intervene in this area, that it should be lefT To doctors by and large to determine whether a young person is competent. That is the key word here. Has the competence to make a decision about something so important. They said thaT The court was also wrong to make the guidance, and of course what has happened, as a result of the original High Court hearing, all new cases were not being prescribed the drugs because, for those of the 16 certainly, that would have to be decided by the court. Many families and their supporters have been very pleased by this outcome which means thaT This hurdle will no longer have to be overcome. People like the Charity Mermaids.

The Police Watchdog says tackling violence against women and girls should be as much of a priority as fighting terrorism.

These findings follow a six Month Investigation commissioned by the Home Secretary, following the murder of 33 year old Sarah Everard. I think the will of the public has been very, very clearly expressed. Whatever the reasons are for it not been prioritised to date, there is a very, very clear indicator to us as set out in this reporT That it must be prioritised from now on in. In the year ending march 2020, there were 1. 6 million female victims of domestic abuse in england and wales. 618,000 female victims of sexual assault, and 892,000 female victims of stalking. The report said that while police have made vast improvements in dealing with violence against females, there are continued failings, and called for a fundamental cross system change, asking for iT To be prioritised as highly as countering terrorism. Suzanne Van Hagan was killed by her partner in 2013. Prior to her death, incidents of domestic abuse were reported to police, yet no effective action was taken to protect her.

BuT That plan was extremely controversial, not least among conservative mps. They feared it would undermine local democracy, and here at westminster perhaps just as significantly they feared it would have a big impact on the Conservative Party in the south of england, as well. When the Housing Secretary Robert Jenrick was sacked on wednesday, there was a lot of speculation thaT This could open the door to a rethink on those plans, and it seems that Michael Gove is at least prepared to think abouT The idea of redoing these plans in a slightly different way. I understand that he has paused putting these plans through parliament, he wants to speak to conservative mps to figure out whaT Their concerns are, and, in the words of one government source, take stock.

The judge ordered that she and her lawyers could serve the case on Prince Andrews us based attorney, a lawyer in los angeles. Serving means putting the allegations in the hands of somebody who is either the defendant or their legal team. That is effectively the really important step to then progress the case.

Thejudge has said we have goT To get on with this and he has made the order. In the uk, where they are trying to serve the documents on the prince, the High Court has said it is giving the princes lawyers until next friday to challenge a decision thaT The High Court here should be involved.

A Court In Vienna has begun hearing a case againsT The austrian government over its handling of a Coronavirus Outbreak at a ski resort. The civil lawsuit concerns cases at ischgl known as the Ibiza Of The Alps in march 2020. Its the first of 15 cases filed in austria and germany, accusing the authorities of failing to respond quickly enough to covid outbreaks. Our Correspondent Bethany Bell is in vienna and told us more abouT The case. This case involves actually just one family. It involves the widow and the son of an austrian journalist, a 72 year old man who died after Contracting Coronavirus after a Skiing Holiday in ischgl in early march 2020, and they say the austrian government mismanaged the evacuation of the resort when it emerged there was coronavirus there, and that it was chaotic. They say he caught coronavirus on the bus as he was leaving and it was badly handled. The austrian government for its part has said over the past few months that it acted according to the information it had aT The time. Now, if everyone is watching this particular case, it is because its being organised by a Consumer Protection Group in austria that say they know of potential several thousand other people who could potentially also bring in lawsuits against austria or possibly have some kind of class action suit. So what happens with this one small family could then unleash more court cases. BuT The other thing that could also happen, there could be moves possibly for a settlement, which would be a different picture again, so we are watching the Court Case Today in vienna. 11 months ago, Tom Parker a member of the band the wanted was diagnosed with an inoperable Brain Tumour.

The cinemas may have reopened but Box Office takings are still lower than they were before the pandemic. Figures seen by the bbc Show A Drop of around £40 million in the four weeks to 12 September compared to the same period in 2019. The industry is hoping thaT The release of the delayed James Bond Film will bring back movie fans. Our Business Correspondent Victoria Fritz reports, and a warning there are some Flashing Images can ijust have one nice evening, please, before the world explodes . Was there ever a more apt Movie Title . There couldnt be more weighing on the shoulders of this man. After two false starts, there is no time like the presenT To release the biggest film of the year.

It is a big film aT The best of times buT This year especially it is going to be a larger cultural moment, i think, as people kind of get over the lasT Two years. At our cinemas, we are doing themed cocktails, we are putting on parties, we are doing midnight screenings and obviously lots of showings and so, yes, it is very exciting. Every cinema is gambling on 007 changing the narrative for the industry, but is bond as much a part of the problem as the solution . After the financial crisis, many films were just deemed too risky or too expensive to make and generally speaking it was the tried and tested formulas that goT The green light, and over time that has led to a reliance on the big blockbuster franchises to keep cinemas afloat. Time is running out. Box office takings are well down so far this year, less than 90 Million was made in the four weeks to the 12th of september. Over the same period in 2019, you would be looking at over 125 million. The industry believes it is staring at a £2 billion Coronavirus Hole in its finances. The pandemic has had an impact on the number of films being made, but also the type of movies we will be seeing more of in the future. Were actually going to see a lot of films that were made during the pandemic, so you have got horror movies, you have got indie movies, very kind of two handed dramas, so that is really interesting. Obviously people will be thinking about streaming as much as the Big Screen as well, because really now a lot of people are going to be taking their movies onto the small screen faster than they did before. For many, the cinema is a Rite Of Passage a first date, a firstjob, a regular saturday night. The question is whether streaming has written the big Screen Experience out of the story of film. Victoria fritz, bbc news. Lets return to sport and british tennis star Emma Raducanu has spoken about her First Night back at home after her triumph at Us Open final. Natalie pirks reports and a warning there are Flashing Images in her report. Since she burst onto our screens at wimbledon last summer, life has been a whirlwind for Emma Raducanu. But as she arrived home in bromley yesterday, there were no parties. Instead, she did the one thing she hadnt yet managed to do since her astonishing Us Open win. Last night, i actuallyjust re watched the final and tried to relive a couple of the moments and remember how it felt. It is sinking in a little bit more. It is something that is very difficulT To fully comprehend. For the rest of us watching, it was nail biting stuff, but not for a teenager with nerves of steel. Personally, i didnt feel any stress. I was just having a lot of fun ouT There and i think thats what helped. I wasnT Thinking at all about anything that was out of my control. After the final, it was a really nice moment after winning and leaving the club. There was sort of a Party Bus going on in Sprinter Van with a lot of music. Good tunes and we were alljust singing along. Since then, shes not out of the headlines and was dressed in chanel aT The prestigious met gala.

Its probably tough love and aT The time, i am probably not as grateful as i am in hindsight, buT Theyjust gave me a hug when i came back, really, nothing crazy, no big celebration. My mum made some really good home made dumplings, buT There was nothing crazy or over the top. I think they are staying discreet and, yeah, just some reassurance and saying they are proud of me is enough. Her new World Ranking of 23 has opened up a lot of new tournaments for her. She and her team have some planning to do. I think ijust really need some time to rest and recover, because it has been very demanding physically and also just emotionally to withstand seven weeks on the road. But when wimbledon rolls around, might we need a new monikerfor henman hill. I think that should stay with tim henman. I think he is a great inspiration and he has helped me so much. I am obviously looking forward to wimbledon, but it is still some time away and ive still got so much learning to do. Learning she will no doubT Take in her stride. Natalie pirks, bbc news.

Now hes safe and well. Dont say we dont bring you good news sometimes. Now its time for a look aT The weather with stav. Hello there. Thursday was a lovely day across the country, with many places staying dry with long spells of sunshine. And today is not looking too bad particularly across parts of england and wales. Lovely sunny skies across hertfordshire, feeling quite warm to into the afternoon, but its not dry everywhere. We have been seeing a Weather Front working into western Areas bringing some rain and some of it quite heavy and the wind has been a feature, as well. Isobars fairly close together across Areas'>Northern Areas so breezy day here versus southern and eastern Areas which have lighter winds and good spells of sunshine. This motherfront and draped across Western Parts of the country, Northern Ireland, western scotland, through the Irish Sea down to wales in the South West. This Weather Front. The heaviest of the rain i think for western scotland, light and patchy further south but a lovely afternoon to come across many central and eastern Areas as temperatures reached 21 22. A little Bit Cooler where we have the rain. Through to mad, bad Weather Front weakens as it pushes further eastwards. Through tonight, that Weather Front weekends. Draped across parts of scotland, northern england, through the Irish Sea, wales and the South West, by The End of the night. To the East And West of it, it should be mainly dry with variable clouds and clear spells. Nowhere particularly cold overnight. Some uncertainty to the forecast into the week. It looks like on saturday, a weak Weather Front line across more than northern and Western Parts of the uk bringing further patchy rain aT Times. I think mainly across scotland, northern and western england and towards wales, again, Areas'>South Eastern Areas should see the best of the sunshine. It will feel quite warm into the afternoon this afternoon in the south east, temperatures around 23 celsius. We see more momentum, as we head into sunday, this Weather Front eventually starT To push toward the eastern side of the country as we pick up more of a westerly flow. Initially, rather cloudy and wet across northern and central Areas. Then The Rain Will Invigorate and lie across more Eastern Parts of the country. We could see localised flooding in 1 2 places by The End of sunday. Heavy and persistent rain in places. Further west, we should see sunshine developing. 1 2 showers, temperatures not quite as high i think is what we will see on saturday. That Weather Front fizzles away on sunday night. This area of High Pressure wants to from the South West into the start of next week and many places will be dry to starT The new week with variable cloud and some good spells of sunshine. Wants to build in. This is bbc news. The headlines. Changes to the rules on foreign travel the Traffic Light System is expected to be simplified and compulsory Pcr Tests scrapped if youre fully vaccinated. We are very, very quiet, so to geT The british market for a sort of a Go Ahead aT This stage would be great it could take us through till The End of october. An Nhs Trust has overturned a landmark high Court Ruling over the use of puberty blocking treatments for children with gender dysphoria. A Police Watchdog says preventing violence against women should be as much of a priority as counter terrorism. People in wales will soon need to prove theyve been fully vaccinated or had a negative Covid Test if they wanT To attend clubs and major events. The government pauses controversial Planning Reforms after the appointment of Michael Gove as Housing Secretary. And coming up. Emma raducanu returns home after that historic Us Open win in new york. Last night i actuallyjust re watched the final and tried to relive a couple of the moments and remember how it felt. So it is sinking in a little bit more. The government is seT To announce big Changes Today to the covid rules for International Travel. In the next couple of hours, the Transport Secretary Grant shapps will give more details, buT Theres been speculation thaT The Traffic Light System of red, amber and green lists will be simplified, with the Amber List effectively dropped. And fully vaccinated travellers may no longer have to take costly Pcr Tests. Initially the changes will apply to people arriving in england. Our Transport Correspondent Caroline Davies has the latest. Sunshine, but no ones sunbathing. In a normal year, 80 of the guests aT This hotel in turkey would have been british. Turkey went on the Red List in may meaning anyone travelling from there to the uk has to quarantine in a hotel. Since then, its been a difficult summer, buT Theyre holding out hope it could change. We have just about survived, but it has been very, very challenging. AT The moment, were very, very quiet. To geT The Go Ahead aT This stage would be great. It could take us through to The End of october. Maybe even into november. So, aT The moment, it is very, very important. There are now 62 countries on the Red List, including pakistan and mexico. The government will announce changes to the lisT Today. There are other moves ahead, too. The Travel Industry hopes thaT The Traffic Light System where countries are currently divided into green, Amber Or Red will be simplified and opened up. It comes at a crucial time. We are heading towards 17 18 months as an industry pretty much without revenue. We have the Furlough Scheme ending in september we really are, as an industry, at a point where either we get some form of supporT To get us through this winter, or we open up International Travel. The industry also wants the more expensive Pcr Tests that all travellers have to do when they arrive in the uk to be replaced by the cheaper lateral Flow Tests. It worries the cost is putting off travellers. Previously, people talked up the need for Pcr Tests because we didnt have the vaccination that protected us from all known strains. Everythings changed now. Weve got 80 of the country vaccinated. I i mean, how long do we have to go on . I the argument for Pcr Testing has been thaT They are more sensitive, and so can pick up cases earlier, and, unlike lateral Flow Tests, they can be used to identify variants of concern. Whether the government will scrap Pcr Tests altogether is still in the balance. The rationale for keeping the Pcr Testing in particular, rather than lateral Flow Testing, is it does enable you to do the Genome Sequencing of potential new variants. And thats been the argument for keeping it as a Pcr Test. But look, we also wanT To try to help people get back to life as normal, so if the case can be made for changes, then obviously we will consider that. Some scientists argue they are still needed. I would like to see Pcr Tests remain, because they have given us so much information already from the sequencing. So we know when delta was introduced, when the Delta Variant came in, thaT This virus was imported over 500 times. And we would not have that information if we were not doing the Screening And Sequencing that is associated with that. The government has said its top priority is to protect Public Health, and that decisions on the Traffic Light System are informed by the latest Risk Assessment from Thejoint Biosecurity Centre and wider Public Health factors. A decision on What Happens Next with tests and travel will be announced later today. The industry is hoping for something that will fill up the sunbeds. Caroline davies, bbc news. The government has just published the latest daily coronavirus figures. Let me bring them to you now. First of all the number of cases. The uk has reported 32,651 new covid 19 cases today. That is compared with 26,911 yesterday. At rise in the number of cases. In terms of deaths, 178 new covid 19 deaths today, compared to 158 deaths a day earlier, yesterday, so those are the latest covid 19 figures in the government. A rise in both cases and the number of deaths. An Nhs Trust has won a Court Of Appeal fighT To overturn a Landmark Ruling which banned the use of puberty blocking drugs for children with gender dysphoria. Last year, the High Court ruled it was highly unlikely that a child aged 13 or under would be able to consenT To the treatment and that it was very doubtful a child of 14 or 15 would understand the long term consequences. The Tavistock And Portman nhs foundation trust, which runs the uks only Gender Identity Development service for children, brought an appeal againsT The ruling injune. Our correspondent Sanchia Berg reminded us of the background to the case. Lets go back to what happened in december when the High Court ruled in favour of Keira Bell and the arguments that she had made that whole area should be subjecT To Judicial Review thaT This whole area should be subjecT To Judicial Review in short, thaT The court should get involved. The High Court said, yes, the courts should be involved and they made a finding and issued guidance along the lines of the requests of Keira Bell and her team. WhaT That said in essence was that any decision to prescribe puberty blocking drugs for a young person certainly under 16, but probably under 17, too, and 18 that decision would have to be made by a court. So what happened was the Tavistock And Portman trust sought leave to appeal, that appeal was heard, thejudgement was handed down this afternoon, and whaT The judges aT The Court Of Appeal found was thaT The other court was quite wrong that it was inappropriate for the courT To intervene in this area, that it should be lefT To doctors by and large to determine whether a young person is competent. Thats the key word here has the competence to make a decision about something so important. They said thaT The court was also wrong to make the guidance, and of course what has happened, as a result of the original High Court hearing, all new cases were not being prescribed drugs because, for those under 16, certainly, that would have to be decided by the court. So many families and their supporters have been very pleased by this outcome which means thaT That hurdle will no longer have to be overcome. People like the Charity Mermaids. For many young people who are just abouT To be referred for endocrinology treatment, they had their appointments just cancelled and were left without any Support Or Idea about what would happen next. There was an immediate reaction from Nhs England to change the Service Specification to require a Court Order, as was handed down in thatjudgement aT The beginning of december 2020. BuT That left people with no idea of what was going to happen next, whaT That process might look like, and for all of those young people who were just on the cusp of having waited probably years to geT To that position, they were suddenly let down with no hope and no idea as to what would happen going into the future. So that was the Chief Executive of mermaids, susie green. Has there been any other reaction . The tavistock the trusT That broughT The case said its very pleased with the outcome, and Keira Bell, who of course broughT The original High Court case, said that she was very disappointed with the ruling of the court and that she is going to be seeking leave to appeal. So that means thaT This is not necessarily The End of the matter . She could try to appeal to the supreme court. She said in a statemenT ThaT That was her intention. I am seeking permission to appeal to the supreme court, she said. The Police Watchdog says tackling violence against women and girls should be as much of a priority as fighting terrorism. The report was commissioned by the Home Secretary Priti patel after the murder of Sarah Everard who disappeared in south london. Her Majestys Inspectorate of constabulary found thaT Three quarters of domestic abuse cases were closed early , cases were closed early, withouT The suspect being charged. Police leaders say they need more resources. Matt graveling reports. How many more . An epidemic of violence. The words used in a new reporT To describe attacks on women. How many more . These findings follow a six Month Investigation commissioned by the Home Secretary, following the murder of 33 year old Sarah Everard. I think the will of the public has been very, very clearly expressed. Whatever the reasons are for it not been prioritised to date, there is a very, very clear indicator to us as set out in this reporT That it must be prioritised from now on in. In the year ending march 2020, there were 1. 6 million female victims of domestic abuse in england and wales. 618,000 female victims of sexual assault, and 892,000 female victims of stalking. The report said that while police have made vast improvements in dealing with violence against females, there are continued failings, and called for a fundamental cross system change, asking for iT To be prioritised as highly as countering terrorism. Suzanne Van Hagan was killed by her partner in 2013. Prior to her death, incidents of domestic abuse were reported to police, yet no effective action was taken to protect her. I was briefly looking aT The reporT Today, one of the key things we as a family have always wanted was for all of the agencies to work together. In my sisters case, suzanne van hagen, this did not happen, they did not communicate well enough together, and unfortunately we felT This was one of the key reasons why unfortunately my sister passed away from Domestic Violence. Charity womens aid says Domestic Violence increased significantly during the pandemic. We have to remember that domestic Abuse And Violence against women is a gendered crime, they are gendered issues, so if you look aT The stats for last year, the number of cases that were in court, some 92,000 plus, 84 of the victims were female and over 92 of the perpetrators or defendants, if you like, were male. Police say they need more investmenT To help bring offenders more quickly tojustice. Matt graveling, bbc news. Earlier i spoke to the Labour Mp Harriet harman. She is also a former equalities minister, and ministerfor women, and she gave her reaction to the report. I am not surprised by the findings but i am very impressed by how they have marshalled all the evidence thatjustifies them saying there is an epidemic of male violence against women. One woman killed by a man whos her Husband Or Partner orformer Husband Or Partner, every three days. Most women Feeling Unsafe and having to calculate how they get from a to b, especially when its dark outside. And, really, in terms of sexual assaults, too much of the cultural baggage of, oh, well, she must have brought it on herself, or its just her word against his. I think whaT Theyve done is they bring together in this report all the evidence, they propose change which i think there will be a big agreement on. The big question is, what is the government going to do in response . And i hope whaT Theyll do, having commissioned this report, is implement it and then they will save lives and save, really, millions of Peoples Misery as a result of domestic Violence And Violence against women and girls. From my reading of the report, it recommends changes in structures and processes, it recommends changes to the law, and it recommends more resources. I suppose The Big Question is, how can that all be achieved . Well, i think it can be achieved and it must be achieved. The criminalJustice System is there for women and girls, as well as men. Its there to protect people women being killed by their Husband Or Partner as well as being killed by terrorists. Its there to deal with Sexual Violence as well as organised crime. We just need to have violence against women and girls as one of the priorities, alongside public order, terrorism and organised crime. And its true we do need additional resources, buT These are resources which are going to protect children from misery, women from Feeling Unsafe, and will ultimately save lives. We cant simplyjust say, oh, Theres Nothing we can do, we cant afford to protect women from male violence. We can and must. Our democracy is there to deliverfor women, and weve got a Home Secretary now and its at her feet, really, to take this forward. Does that make you optimistic thaT This could be a moment of real change, and thaT This wontjust be yet another reporT That everyone applauds buT Then gets put on a shelf somewhere . Well, im hoping so because there is a very big consensus abouT The scale of the problem, and a very big agreement about whaT This report proposes. Weve got a woman as Home Secretary as the same time as a woman metropolitan commissioner for the firsT Time, aT The same time as a Woman Inspector of constabulary. Weve actually got women in senior positions and now its down to them to deliver for women in the country. Its also down, isnt it, to a change in culture . And i wonder if that is a change in Police Culture and the report has highlighted vast differences between the ways different Police Forces approach this but also in public attitude, and that attitude i am sure youll recognise well, we dont know what goes on behind closed doors. What can be done to change public attitudes to this . I donT Think its public attitudes as a whole, because i think that women are very well aware thaT Theyve got a right noT To be killed or assaulted in their own Home And Theyve got a righT To walk down The Street without being harassed by predatory men, and theyve got a righT To be listened to if they claim they have been raped. And i think theres just a hangover from male hierarchies in the police, and in other organisations in the pasT That have just assumed Theres Nothing that can be done about it, and i think we are hopefully at a Turning Point where we say, we are noT The sort of society where we expect women as opposed to men having to feel cautious about how they go home from school or how they go home at night after work, and thaT They shouldnt have to look over their shoulder and that women should be safe in their own home. That was the Labour Mp Harriet harman talking to me a little earlier. There have been new developments both here and in the us in the legal case involving Prince Andrew. He is being sued by Virgina Giuffre for alleged sexual abuse. Heres our legal correspondent dominic casciani. Overnight, documents were published in the us court dealing with the Virginia Giuffre Case of allegations against Prince Andrew. The judge ordered that she and her lawyers could serve the case on Prince Andrews us based attorney, a lawyer in los angeles. Serving means putting the allegations in the hands of somebody who is either the defendant or their legal team. That is effectively the really important step to then progress the case. What has happened so far is that lawyers for Prince Andrew have said he has not been properly served, so the case could not progress. Thejudge has said we have goT To get on with this and he has made the order. In the uk, where they are trying to serve the documents on the prince, the High Court has said it is giving the princes lawyers until next friday to challenge a decision thaT The High Court here should be involved. There is a lot in play, but what is going on here, time is running out and it looks increasingly the prince may face a situation where he has to accept service, so theres a lot going on. Dominic casciani there. The welsh government has announced tighter rules for getting into nightclubs and large scale events. From october 11th, people will need a pass showing theyve been vaccinated or a negative lateral Flow Test result. It comes at a time of rising Covid Infection rates in wales. Hywel griffith reports. After bouncing back to life around britain over the summer, nightclubs are still for some a Front Line in trying to tackle the pandemic. In scotland, from october the 1st, entry will depend on having proof of vaccination, while in england, the idea has been dropped. The welsh government has decided to make Covid Passes compulsory instead, meaning Youll Need to show your Vaccine Status or a proof of negative lateral Flow Test to get in something the industry has not welcomed. We really need to build the nightclubs back up. The industry has been hit very hard. So just giving more challenges to the customer, we wanT To make it very easy for customers to enjoy themselves. Matches at larger Football And Rugby stadiums are included too. Travelling supporters will need to show a Covid Pass wherever they have come from. But it will depend on people taking the tests to give their own results. We will be making the existing Covid Pass compulsory for everyone attending high risk venus, such as a rugby or a football match. In future, demonstrating that you have a Covid Pass will become a necessary condition of admission. Other measures like the use of facemasks in shops and the advice to work from home are already in place in wales, and failed to stop the Summer Spread of the virus. Ministers hope Covid Passes will bring a new line of resistance. Hywel griffith, bbc news, cardiff. The newly reshuffled cabinet met for the firsT Time in downing streeT This morning. Dominic raab, Demoted Tojustice secretary, sat opposite the Prime Minister around the cabineT Table, as did mr Raabs Replacement as foreign secretary, liz truss, and new Housing Secretary Michael Gove.

Borisjohnson has promised to build 300,000 extra houses a year by 2025, and to do that he was planning to Liberalise Planning Laws to make it much easier for developers to build new buildings in certain parts of england. BuT That plan was extremely controversial, not least among conservative mps. They feared it would undermine local democracy, and here at westminster perhaps just as significantly they feared it would have a big impact on the Conservative Party in the south of england, as well. When the Housing Secretary Robert Jenrick was sacked on wednesday, there was a lot of speculation thaT This could open the door to a rethink on those plans, and it seems that Michael Gove is at least prepared to think abouT The idea of redoing these plans in a slightly different way. I understand that he has paused putting these plans through parliament, he wants to speak to conservative mps to figure out whaT Their concerns are, and, in the words of one government source, take stock. That has been welcomed by the tories who were deeply sceptical abouT These Planning Reforms. It does not mean theyve definitely been scrapped, but it certainly leaves a question open abouT Their future. Andrew whitaker is the Planning Director for the home Builders Federation which represents private Sector Home builders in england and wales. He told me Mr Goves approach was to be expected. Well, i donT Think that its any surprise. If you have a new Secretary Of State, of course, when making policy changes, that new Secretary Of State will wanT To abort into those policy changes. We donT Think it is anything to worry about. We are not concerned. Obviously the problems with the Planning System that were there when the government launched a consultation on the White Paper are still there, indeed they have got even worse over the last year. Do you accepT That you bear some responsibility for the pausing of these plans . Because you havent really convinced people thaT They will still continue to have a say in their local Areas as to what is builT There. I donT Think it is for us to convince people thaT The Planning Reform is a good idea. Obviously that is for the governmenT To convince people. But we believe that a lot of people have overreacted to the proposals in the White Paper, which was of course just a consultation. We still dont know whats going to go into the planning bill, we dont know whaT The detail will be, but we never accepted or wanted a Planning System that didnt allow local people to have a say in the development of their Areas. These proposed plans have now been posed. Have now been paused. Can you, from the home Builders Federation, build the 300,000 homes a year the government says we need while these plans are on pause . Its always worrying when government introduced the idea of reform of any system. Because in the intervening period, there is a great deal of uncertainty and that is uncertainty for everyone, local authorities, for local communities, and, of course, the development industry. We dont wanT To see any further delays in the reform of the Planning System, and therefore, we would like to see the details on whaT The government are going to do. We need to build 300,000 houses a year in this country, and we need to get on and do that. Just so im clear in my own mind, does this mean that new Houses Wont be built while this is being paused . The Planning System is a really vital part of delivering housing in this country. Without an implementable planning consent, you cannot build a house therefore we need to plan for these houses, we need to make decisions on planning applications speedily and efficiently, and we need to bring forward land on which to develop. So, yes, more uncertainty, more delay, does threaten the delivery of 300,000 houses. We use the Phrase Housing Crisis is that an accurate description, do you think . I think theres a huge housing crisis. Everybody knows abouT The problems of affordability of housing, availability of housing, the demographics put pressure on that where people wanT To live and what kind of housing they wanT To live in. And, of course, the pandemic has made that more acute in people realising thaT The housing theyre in aT The moment doesnt meeT Their needs or isnt in the right place. So we have a backlog of housing under delivery, we continue to under deliver, and that is indeed a crisis. The leader of the liberal democrats, sir ed davey, has said his party provides an alternative for those who feel taken for granted by borisjohnsons government, as their annual conference starts today. The party will call for the Emergency Laws brought in during the pandemic to be scrapped and its reiterated its opposition to vaccine passports. The lib dems unexpectedly took a Tory Seat in the Chesham And Amersham By Election earlier this year. Two men have appeared in court charged with the murder of the journalist Lyra Mckee, who was shot during rioting in londonderry in 2019. The men aged 21 and 33 were arrested on wednesday morning, and have had a number of other charges brought againsT Them, including firearms possession, rioting and arson. How ireland corresponded, Chris Page, has more. It is a significant moment. Its two and a half years since Lyra Mckee was murdered on a Thursday Night in april 2019. She was observing a riot in the creggan estate in this city when she was shot by a gunman from the dissident republican group, the new Ira Dissident republicans being that group of paramilitary organisations who are opposed to the Peace Process. Lyra was 29, she was pretty well known in Northern Ireland as a journalist. She had been well known for writing impactful stories about her experiences of growing up during the years of the Peace Process in Northern Ireland, about her experiences of growing up as a young gay woman in Northern Ireland. So it was a murder that sparked a huge wave of public sympathy and outrage. This morning, at londonderry magistrates� court, two men appeared charged with her murder they appeared via video link. They were peter gearoid cavanagh, who was 33, from derry, and also and jordan devine, whos 21, similarly from this city. Charged with the murder, theyre also facing several other charges for example, having a Gun And Ammunition with intenT To endanger life, rioting, having and throwing Petrol Bombs, and arson. There were some exchanges during the court hearing. A detective told the courT That, in gearoid cavanaghs case, well, they believe he was identified in images footage from the night as being present and as escorting, in the detectives words the gunman around the time of the shooting. That was disputed by gearoid cavanaghs Defence Lawyer he said it was beond belief that anybody could be identified he said it was beyond belief that anybody could be identified from those images. Injordan devines case the detective said it was the police and prosecutions view that he had encouraged the gunman by punching the air and by cheering, and also lifting items from the scene later on in the evening. Again, the Defence Barrister said the evidence was weak and said, in fact, there was a zero substantial evidence against his client. So the districtjudge granted bail to both of the defendants theyre due to appear in court again next month. That was Chris Page. Now its time for a look aT The weather with stav danaos.

Pep guardiola has refused to apologise for comments calling on more Manchester City fans to attend their upcoming Premier League Match against southampton. His remarks were made after citys win over Rb Leipzig in the Champions League on wednesday aT The etihad, which had an Attendance Ofjust 38,000 the Stadiums Capacity is 55,000. The comments attracted criticism from the clubs fans, but guardiola has insisted they were misinterpreted. I said, guys, if you wanT Tojoin us, wed be incredibly happy if you came to see the next game against southampton. Because i know, i knew, and tomorrow i will know how difficult it will be. And i would prefer to be with my people than without my people. But if they dont come for any reason, its perfect i never was here to say, why didnt you come . If you dont come, dont come. If you wanT To come, it would be a pleasure. If you dont, you dont. So he should review my comments after. So i will not apologise to him, absolutely not. And its thoughT There may be implications for other countries, after New Zealand pulled out of their tour of pakistan this morning because of a security alert. England men and womens teams are scheduled to play there next month, and the ecb have said they are liaising with their Security Team on the ground and will make a decision in the next few days as to whether the tour should proceed. New zealand made their announcement just minutes before the first of three one day internationals in rawalpindi was scheduled to begin. In response, pakistan posted a terse statement on Social Media, which reads. Earlier, i spoke to Journalist Abid Hussain in islamabad, who was outside the stadium as the announcement was made. The news came as a complete shock out of the blue. In fact, when the news started filtering in initially, it was said a couple of players were getting covid. And thats why the match was being suspended. And then some news about pakistani players getting covid. There was Miscommunication And Misinformation going on and subsequently, things started to unravel after that. There was complete chaos. People are right now analysing the hoT Tempered reaction. People are blaming the kiwis for making a hasty decision. So these accusations have been flying all over the place. But aT This point in time, there is absolutely no clarity. There was a sense of optimism coming down from the pakistan Cricket Board thaT The teams would come and play. This shakes the confidence of the other teams to come in and for pakistan Cricket Board, its a huge shock financially as well as with their credibility. A lot of things are at stake so there will be lots of ramifications from this. That story is on the Bbc Sport Website. BuT Thats it for now. Jane, thank you. The un says a failure to slash global emissions is setting the world on a catastrophic path to 2. 7 Degrees Celsius of heating. Thats what Un Chief has been saying. A report by the united nations on 191 countries emissions promises found thaT They would not meeT The ambition of the paris climate agreemenT To limit global warming to 1. 5c above pre industrial temperatures. Im joined now by our science editor, david shukman. A sobering assessment from the Un Secretary General. Tell us more about exactly what hes been saying. Well, its a pretty blunt assessment, strong words from him. As we approach the climate summit in glasgow what happens is, under the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, countries or take part in that agreement, which is pretty much every country on earth, every five years is meanT To senT To the un and updated climate plan explaining how they are going to reduce their emissions. Well, many countries have submitted plans of that kind and if you add them up, you do see some reduction overall in emissions from them. But many countries, including them. But many countries, including the biggest polluters, have not updated their plans and crucially, china, saudi arabia, india and turkey. So withouT Them, emissions, according to the un, are still on track to increase. In fact, the Calculation Theyve done and this is the biT Thats causing shock waves is a projecT That by 2030, global emissions will be 16 bigger than they are right now. They hold that figure of 16 in mind because, not long ago, we had un climate scientist saying thaT To head off the worst dangers of global warming, particularly middle of the century later on, we need to be cutting emissions roughly by half, by 45 by 2030. So actually, the world is going in the wrong direction. And weve heard from antonio gutierrez, the Executive Secretary of the uns climate programme, has talked about a huge cause for concern because the world has broadly talked abouT The world has broadly talked abouT The need to act on Climate Change, but when you add up whaT The collective total is from all the different governments, we just arent getting there. T different governments, we ust arent getting therei different governments, we ust arent getting there. I have that fi t ure, arent getting there. I have that figure. 16 arent getting there. I have that figure, 16 more arent getting there. I have that figure, 16 more admissions i arent getting there. I have that figure, 16 more admissions in| arent getting there. I have that. Figure, 16 more admissions in my mind, and the implications of that. I suppose what would be the effect of this, as the Un Secretary General calls this, catastrophic warning . So calls this, catastrophic warning . Sr scientists calls this, catastrophic warning . Srt scientists have calls this, catastrophic warning . Srtt scientists have been calculating whaT The different scenarios look like. And theyve always said thaT The sooner you can starT To bring emissions down, the less severe will be the climate impact, the extent of warming, the effect on heat waves and droughts, and extreme weather reports in the years and decades ahead. So the calculation aT The moment stands that if emissions continue to rise as projected by 16 by 2030, that would puT The world on course for a rise of 2. 7 celsius by The End of the Century And Bear in mind the Paris Agreement set a lower limit of a rise of 1. 5 celsius, and suggested we dont really wanT To go above that. The science is very clear that we are already seeing the effects of Climate Change. Once you hit 1. 5, effects of Climate Change. Once you hit1. 5, it effects of Climate Change. Once you hit 1. 5, it gets worse, when you hiT The territory of 2. 7 as predicted in this latest report, things get very dire in many parts of the world. And i think thats what everybody has soughT To avoid. But itjust comes down to the political difficulty of getting countries around the world to agree to cuT Their emissions, and we arejust seeing to agree to cuT Their emissions, and we are just seeing how hard that can we are ust seeing how hard that can be.

Eight of those 62 countries are now off the | those 62 countries are now off the Red List, including turkey, pakistan, the maldives, egypt, sri lanka, oman, bangladesh and kenya. And that will come into effect from 4am this wednesday, 22 september. Thats the first change that been announced today. Tags thats the first change that been announced today. Thats the first change that been announced today. As he was Ust Sa Int , announced today. As he was ust saying. The � announced today. As he was ust saying, the traffic i announced today. As he was ust saying, the Traffic Light � announced today. As he wasjust saying, the Traffic Light System i saying, the Traffic Light System where we had red, green and Amber Hasjust been gotten where we had red, green and amber has just been gotten rid of all together . Hasjust been gotten rid of all totether . T t, , t, t, together . This has been overhauled. All countries together . This has been overhauled. All countries will together . This has been overhauled. All countries will now together . This has been overhauled. All countries will now fiT Together . This has been overhauled. All countries will now fit into together . This has been overhauled. All countries will now fit into the all countries will now fit into the either the Red List, which means if you come back from those countries, you come back from those countries, you have to pay to quarantine in a hotel, and all the other countries that are not in the list will be considered to be open and have their own set of travel rules. Now those rules are changing. If you are fully vaccinated, from the 4th of october, you wont need to take a lateral Flow Test before you travel thats called the Predeparture Test but you will need to initially take a Pcr Test when you arrive. If you are not fully vaccinated, you will still need to take a Predeparture Test, you will need to quarantine when you get back to the uk, and you will need to take a two Pcr Tests unless you do test and release, which allows you out after five days and you test negative. Now the final piece thaT The Transport Secretary was talking abouT There was about Pcr Tests. Initially that Pcr Test was staying, buT The intention is to get rid of that for people who are fully vaccinated by The End of october. So initially it will stay from the 4th of october, we dont have the exact date when Pcr Tests will go, and when that eventually goes, youll instead take a lateral Flow Test. This might all sound confusing the big issue here has been that Pcr Tests are a lot more expensive than lateral Flow Tests, so the Travel Industry ideally dont want any testing because its an added cost, buT They dont want Pcr Test because it is so much more expensive and is putting people off travelling, particularly families who might have to buy 3 5 tests to go on holiday. The Travel Industry will now be asking, this is happening before The End of october, but when . Because of half term. The government says they wanT To get rid of it before people come back from half term and would be hit by it. BuT Thats The Big Question, when exactly will this come into place . And other question would be, when people are considering to book a holiday for half term. We saw earlier in the year what happened with portugal and mexico, the rules are scrapped, then suddenly they are reimposed again and people have flown ouT To these places and they are in a pickle and need to get back. Is that still a possibility . This is a big problem, testing companies ive been speaking to a lab earlier this week who says they just wanT To have consistency so they can plan and know what will happen. Overthe they can plan and know what will happen. Over the course of the summer, theres been more consistency. When countries have been moved from the Amber List to green list, theyve often stayed there and more people have been vaccinated. We havent seen any major European Destinations over the course of the last few months being moved onto the Red List. So that should give people some level of reassurance. But with all of this, the government has always said that a Traffic Light System, international Travel Policy is based on Public Health. So i would be interested to see the rest of the interview with the Transport Secretary to see whether or noT They are committing themselves to continuing with this policy indefinitely, or if theres any lever where they might change it. BuT They are clearly trying to make a big move to make sure half Term Travel is possible. T a big move to make sure half Term Travel is possible. Travel is possible. I suppose its also worth travel is possible. I suppose its also worth saying travel is possible. I suppose its also worth saying thaT Travel is possible. I suppose its also worth saying that if travel is possible. I suppose its also worth saying that if you travel is possible. I suppose its also worth saying that if you do | travel is possible. I suppose its i also worth saying that if you do fly ouT To different countries, they may have their own rules around testing so youve goT To check that. Qt course, this so youve goT To check that. Ttt course, this isjust about so youve goT To check that. Ttt course, this is just about what happens when you come into the uk. Just because these countries are on the open list is not mean theyre open us, thisjust means the open list is not mean theyre open us, this just means what happens when you come back from the uk to happens when you come back from the uk to the happens when you come back from the uk to the uk. Happens when you come back from the uk to the uk. Another thing that is importanT To mention is thaT There will be 17 new countries where vaccinations will be recognised, vaccinations will be recognised, vaccination certificates will be recognised coming in, so that people can be treated as if they were double vaccinated. I will open up travel to some of those countries, Japan And Singapore are on that list. T, Japan And Singapore are on that list. TT T t, list. Leaving iT There, much to digest. But list.

After being stabbed ten times, he staggered to his mothers house. I heard him bang on the door, which, i dont know where his strength came from. My name was called, mummy. And i came out. And that was it. His killers belonged to the north newham gang. Theyd gone to Enemy Territory that day in south newham, with the sole purpose of hurting or killing someone. They chose David Gomoh at random. If you wanT To understand newhams gang culture, you need to come to the compound gym.

Lets return to sport and british tennis star Emma Raducanu has spoken about her First Night back at home after her triumph at Us Open final. Natalie pirks reports, and a warning there are Flashing Images in her report. Since she burst onto our screens at wimbledon last summer, life has been a whirlwind for Emma Raducanu. But as she arrived home in bromley yesterday, there were no parties. Instead, she did the one thing she hadnt yet managed to do since her astonishing Us Open win. Last night, i actuallyjust re watched the final and tried to relive a couple of the moments and remember how it felt. It is sinking in a little bit more. It is something that is very difficulT To fully comprehend. For the rest of us watching, it was nail biting stuff, but not for a teenager with nerves of steel. Personally, i didnt feel any stress. I was just having a lot of fun ouT There and i think thats what helped. I wasnT Thinking at all about anything that was out of my control. After the final, it was a really nice moment after winning and leaving the club. There was sort of a Party Bus going on in Sprinter Van with a lot of music. Good tunes and we were alljust singing along. Since then, shes not out of the headlines and was dressed in chanel aT The prestigious met gala.

But she says she is leaving iT To her parents to decide whaT To do with the money and credits them with being where she is now. Its probably tough love and aT The time, i am probably not as grateful as i am in hindsight, buT Theyjust gave me a hug when i came back, really, nothing crazy, no big celebration. My mum made some really good home made dumplings, buT There was nothing crazy or over the top. I think they are staying discreet and, yeah, just some reassurance and saying they are proud of me is enough. Her new World Ranking of 23 has opened up a lot of new tournaments for her. She and her team have some planning to do. I think ijust really need some time to rest and recover, because it has been very demanding physically and also just emotionally to withstand seven weeks on the road. But when wimbledon rolls around, might we need a new monikerfor henman hill. I think that should stay with tim henman. I think he is a great inspiration and he has helped me so much. I am obviously looking forward to wimbledon, but it is still some time away and ive still got so much learning to do. Learning she will no doubT Take in her stride. Natalie pirks, bbc news.
