of another two trials, additional evidence, and 115 more articles. everything we said was happening at mirror group, was in fact happening. and indeed far worse, as the court ruled in its extremely damaging judgment. as the judge has said only this morning, we have uncovered and proved the shockingly dishonest way in which the mirror acted for so many years, and then sought to conceal the truth. in light of this we call again for the authorities to uphold the rule of law, and to prove that no—one is above it. that includes mr morgan, who, as editor, knew perfectly well what was going on, as thejudge held. even his own employer realised it simply could not call him as a witness of truth at the trial.

his contempt for the court's ruling, and his continued attacks ever since, demonstrate why it was so important to obtain a clear and detailed judgment. as i said back in december, our mission continues. i believe in the positive change it will bring for all of us. it is the very reason why i started this, and why i will continue to see it through to the end." thank you very much. lets go live now to the high court and get the latest from charlie rose. what does todays judgment mean for the prince, who, as we heard in that statement, says his mission over how the press operate

very much continues. try, he says it has been his mission to bring about positive change, to change either press operates. now we see that his mission is going to continue. we heard from his lower just a few moments ago on the steps just a few moments ago on the steps just behind me saying that substantial chip additional damages have now been awarded. he added that he had agreed to make past cost payments of about £400,000 with further costs to be obsessed assessed. mirror group newspapers said they are pleased to have reached this agreement and move forward from these events which took many place many years ago. last year

prince harry and his team won 15 of the 33 sample cases against mirror group newspapers accusing them of unlawful information gathering, hacking his phone and voice mail to get information to write stories. two stories included articles involving prince harry and his girlfriend of many years ago, chelsy davy, when the pair were very young, stories about when they went out on dates, their relationship arguments they may have had and statues and so on. thejudge also they may have had and statues and so on. the judge also said that unlawful information gathering was widespread among mirror group newspapers, the daily mirror, the sunday mirror and the people and that senior executives at mirror group newspapers knew full well what was going on and that includes the former editor of the mirror, piers morgan. we have had thisjudgment

today. it brings a conclusion to at least this part of the case, but prince harry's mission he says continues, to bring about positive change in the way the press operates. change in the way the press operates-— change in the way the press operates. change in the way the press oerates. , ., , ., , operates. this of course was a test case. operates. this of course was a test case- what — operates. this of course was a test case. what does _ operates. this of course was a test case. what does this _ operates. this of course was a test case. what does this mean - operates. this of course was a test case. what does this mean for - operates. this of course was a test i case. what does this mean for others who have accused newspapers of phone hacking or gaining information about high—profile individuals using unlawful methods? high-profile individuals using unlawful methods?— high-profile individuals using unlawful methods? what we have learnt this afternoon _ unlawful methods? what we have learnt this afternoon in _ unlawful methods? what we have learnt this afternoon in this - unlawful methods? what we have learnt this afternoon in this trial l learnt this afternoon in this trial is that there are another 100 claimants basically making claims about mirror group newspapers waiting for their claims to be processed. this is a huge financial burden for mirror group newspapers but thejudgment today burden for mirror group newspapers but the judgment today has to be positive news for those hundred people, but not everyone involved has been successful, there have been

wonder noticeable celebrities, nikki sanderson the actress, and also the ex—wife of paul whitehouse, they wanted to have their cost paid by mirror group newspapers but the judge said because they turned down a settlement, in part because they turned down a settlement, they now won't have their cost paid. broadly speaking there are another 100 claimants waiting to have their claims processed. a huge financial burden for mirror group newspapers, there is no pressure on mirror group newspapers to settle those other 100 people waiting to have their claims dealt with. , ., ., ., dealt with. yes, far from over. there was _ dealt with. yes, far from over. there was also _ dealt with. yes, far from over. there was also a _ dealt with. yes, far from over. there was also a specific- dealt with. yes, far from over. i there was also a specific mention there, you mentioned it before, piers morgan, talked me through what david chapman had to say there. after the end of last year's judgment when thejudge after the end of last year's judgment when the judge said that

there were a number of senior executives at mirror group newspapers he knew full well what was going on, journalists hacking phones, hacking the voicemails and so on, of course piers morgan at the time was the editor of the mirror and today david sherborne, prince harry's lawyer, called out piers morgan saying he knew full well what was going on. at the end of last year piers morgan said that he had nothing to do with any of this, but prince harry's legal team have different thoughts about that and basically they are saying that he did know what was going on and, i suppose, today and next few days people will be looking for answers from piers morgan. prince harry and his legal team made a point today of naming piers morgan and making sure that people knew that interview he knew full well what was going on,

been awarded, £1a0,000 awarded at the end of last year following that judgment and another £a00,000 it has been spoken about following the settlement and perhaps a bit more than that, but the main message from prince harry and his legal team is that mission to bring about positive changes he it in the press, a mission to do good, if you like, following the conclusion of this whole phone hacking scandal. charlie rose, just giving us the latest after we have heard that the duke of sussex is one further substantial damages in his phone hacking came against mirror group newspapers. the families of grace 0'malley—kumar, barnaby webber and ian coates, who were killed in nottingham last year, are meeting the prosecutors watchdog and the care quality commission today. it is part of two on—going reviews into their killer, valdo calocane's, sentencing to a high security

hospital and his contact with mental health services. simonjones reports. killed on their way home last summer after a night out. students grace 0'malley—kumar and barnaby webber were attacked by valdo calocane, who then stabbed to death ian coates, a school caretaker. calocane stole his van and used it to hit three pedestrians. the families of those who died have spoken of their loss to bbc breakfast. grace is just frozen as a 19—year—old. her life is just cut short and she's sort of just stopped. our biggest fear was our little girl driving up and down the motorway. we never even ever thought that our own daughter would be killed in an incident of knife crime. police: stay where you are! this was the moment calocane was caught. last month, he was given an indefinite hospital order

after admitting manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility. that was to the disgust of the families of calocane's victims, who insist murder charges should have been pursued. we foolishly trusted in the criminaljustice system. we thought we would have a voice maybe to talk about knife crime, to talk about the lack of proper support for victims' families and the failings leading up to this. what we didn't expect was to be having to make such a noise. after pressure from the families, the crown prosecution service inspectorate, which examines the work of prosecutors, launched a review of the decisions in the case. today, the families will get an update on that. the cps itself had previously said there was overwhelming evidence calocane was suffering from a serious condition. the families will also meet the care quality commission. it's looking into the mental health trust that had treated calocane for paranoid schizophrenia.

he had been in and out of hospital for several years. the fails from the police, the cps, the health service have resulted in the murder of my father and these two innocent students. the nhs mental health trusts have to be held accountable for their failures, along with the police. the families have already taken their demands forjustice to downing street, although they know nothing can bring back their loved ones. but they have vowed to fight on to try to prevent others going through what they have suffered. and they say only a full public inquiry into what went wrong will do. simon jones, bbc news. now it's time for a look at the weather with darren betts. hello there. as temperatures have continued to rise, so the focus has shifted from snow to rain and flooding. this was the weather watcher picture taken earlier today in leicestershire. it's a combination of the rain and in some cases the melting snow that's led to a large number of flood warnings. the bulk of those have been across the midlands and southern england, but the weekend looks like it should be drier.

this weather front has been moving northwards, taking the wetter weather up towards scotland and that's where we've got the colder air still in place, but elsewhere it is much milder and we are seeing some spells of rain. with that mild dry coming in over the cold ground here in staffordshire, it's meant quite misty and murky conditions, as well as the snow gradually thawing. we've got misty, murky conditions across much of northern england and northern ireland. those are the temperatures we've got as we head into the evening. somewhat colder in scotland. there's still a strong easterly wind blowing and it's over highland and grampian above about 300 metres there could be as much as 20 centimetres of snow, so it really is well over high ground. it's rain elsewhere. we've got more rain in southern scotland into the night, moving away from northern ireland and some clearer skies will develop further south and it may well be a little bit chillier than last night across southern england, with lows of two

or three degrees here. it depends on cloud and mist and fog, and we could see some mist and fog developing through the midlands towards lincolnshire. that will be a little slow to lift. and we've still got more cloud around in scotland on saturday. the rain and snow mainly in the far north of the country. some showers will follow to the south, mainly in south wales and south—west england. but we should see some sunshine and, even across northern england, southern scotland and northern ireland. that will certainly give the temperatures a boost. it's continuing to get milder in the next day or so. the colder air is getting pushed to the north of mainland scotland by that weather front by sunday, but we've still got low pressure close by, so there still could be some showers and there may even be a bit of rain running its way close to these north sea coasts. otherwise, it could be quite cloudy with mist and fog patches to lift, particularly in the north. some sunshine coming through, but still a few showers, mainly in the south and west of the uk. blustery winds still through the english channel, otherwise the winds fairly light and those temperatures in scotland will continue to rise.
