so if you are watching this and you're from newcastle you best pick a bike up, if i'm going to build a skate park! if reilly does achieve his olympic dream, it will be some time before he comes back down to earth. katie gornall, bbc news. time for a look at the weather, here's elizabeth rizzini. too hot for some in fact, lots of sunshine around in fact we have widely seen temperatures in the mid to high 20s. 26 celsius in sunderland and further south in st james�*s park in london we got to 32 celsius, making it the hottest day of the year so far. but it hasn't been warm and sunny everywhere. there has been quite a lot of cloud and a few spots of drizzle toward western coast and plenty of rain across northern ireland and scotland too. it will push eastwards overnight tonight. clearskies overnight tonight. clear skies towards overnight tonight. clearskies towards the east still, it will feel muqqy towards the east still, it will feel muggy and warm, uncomfortable for

sleeping and these will be the temperatures at the very coolest point of the night. there is a lot of extra moisture in the air too so a muggy start to the day tomorrow. tomorrow, we still have the rain moving eastwards. it will be dry and fine for much of the day across eastern scotland, the rain arriving in northern england across the afternoon. this is the picture at lipm, heavier downpours of rain across south—west england, into wales. further east mostly dry, the clouds thickening but one or two sharp showers to east anglia, coastal areas of yorkshire and lincolnshire too. there is the rain across southern parts of scotland and the central belt later on through the day. this is a cold front so as the name suggests behind it we have a much colder feeling air and that is the thing you will notice about sunday. quite a muggy start to the day eastern parts of england, a bit of cloud through the morning but elsewhere lots of sunshine developed, maybe a few afternoon showers, some could be on the sharp side but look at that drop in temperature. 15 to 22 celsius.

monday, back to the same old normal with some showers and temperatures about the seasonal average. thanks, elizabeth. and that's bbc news at six. now it's time to join our colleagues for the news hello and welcome to sportsday — i'm jane dougall. shane lowry�*s the man to catch at the open — this birdie keeps him top of the leaderboard after his second round. sheer delight for kavem hodge at his maiden test century as the west indies frustrate england in the second test at trent bridge. who'll step into his shoes? we'll hear from one of the favourites to take the england job later in the programme. also coming up on sportsday...

he was the first in the world to perform this trick, — can kieran reilly take his skills to paris and win freestye bmx gold? and we hear from the british 17—year—old phoebe gill who's taking time out from her studies to compete in paris. welcome to the programme, as we look ahead to a busy weekend of sport, but as the second day of the open draws to a close, it's been another impressive round from shane lowry. he's the clubhouse leader on seven under and is the man to beat. yesterday belonged to qualifier dan brown and he is still very much in contention, finishing two shots behind the leader. but some of the big names may not survive,

tiger woods will be going home, and it was the rory mcilroy horror show, he also looks likely to miss the cut. but the day was all about the irishman, shane lowry as olly foster reports. there's a fine line between brave and foolhardy, finding a balance on the course is key to mastering the royal should. the course is key to mastering the royalshould. shane the course is key to mastering the royal should. shane lowry has done just that one off the lead overnight he moved back to the top with two early birdies. he came unstuck at the railway hole a double bogey but she got back on track, helped by the strong irish support sensing a repeat of his open when five years ago. i repeat of his open when five years auo. ~' , repeat of his open when five years auo. ~ , ., , ., ago. i think these conditions to them as well, _ ago. i think these conditions to them as well, in _ ago. i think these conditions to them as well, in the _ ago. i think these conditions to them as well, in the wind, - ago. i think these conditions to them as well, in the wind, that ago. i think these conditions to i them as well, in the wind, that is where he won for his ago, so i think he is a great chance. he’s where he won for his ago, so i think he is a great chance.— he is a great chance. he's doing well, so he is a great chance. he's doing well. so will _ he is a great chance. he's doing well, so will begin _ he is a great chance. he's doing well, so will begin keep - he is a great chance. he's doing well, so will begin keep it - he is a great chance. he's doing | well, so will begin keep it going. he's not— well, so will begin keep it going. he's not too far from home, so hope you can _ he's not too far from home, so hope you can keep— he's not too far from home, so hope you can keep going _ he's not too far from home, so hope you can keep going. the— he's not too far from home, so hope you can keep going-— you can keep going. the child is cheerin:

west indies dizzy and three down at lunch, they shuffled along carefully afterwards, fearful of a spill, but when it came it was through english hands. joe root let kaven hodge slipped, and escape which seem to embolden them, cue a session of dominican domination. both letters from the same alan country, both past 50. noinmmy anderson has a casual rather than bowl, but he would have reminded him that the stay patient, these are the kind of unfriendly conditions ben stokes once his side to suffer. he leads by example, but there was courage in the betting of kavem hodge, listen to what it sounds like to score a test century. it ended in 120, trapped by ben stokes, this time england have a test. patrick gearey, bbc news the draw for the women's euro 2025

playoffs has taken place today. scotland will face hungary, northern ireland have been drawn against croatia, and wales will take on slovakia in the first round. and if wales win over the two legs, then they could face the republic of ireland, who take on georgia, in the second round of play—offs. england have already qualified for next years tournament. pep guardiola, graham potter, and eddie howe, these arejust some of the names linked with the england job following gareth southgate's resignation. well, one of the favourties, newcastle manager eddie howe has been speaking today and he said his commitment to the club is �*unwavering' after being asked if he was interested in applying to be head coach of england. gareth southgate stepped down on tuesday, just days after england's loss to spain in the final of the euros. england play the republic of ireland on the 7th of september in the nations league and the fa say

an interim manager will be in charge if a successor to southgate hasn't yet been appointed. howe's name has been mentioned in regards to the vaccancy, but he still has three years on his contract at newcastle and says he wants to see them out. iam i am absolutely honoured and privileged to be manager of newcastle united, i hope it is for many years, my commitment is unwavering. i am determined to try and win entropy for the football club. that is in my psyche every day. i want to see joy in the supporters. i want to bring that to them, hopefully. let's take a quick look at some of the other sports news stories making the headlines. everton have confirmed that discussions with "the friedkin group" over the potential sale of a majority stake in the club have ended after they failed to reach an agreement.

the american firm, which also own italian side roma, began talks just weeks after a previous takeover bid by 777 partners collapsed. 15 minutes of the second practice session for this weekend's hungarian grand prix was lost after charles leclerc crashed his ferrari. britain's lando norris was fastest, his mclaren was two tenths of a second quicker than red bull's world champion max verstappen. it's been a challenging day for elfyn evans at rally latvia. he's seventh overall after eight stages — almost a minute behind leader and toyota team mate kalle rovanpera. however, the brit is ahead of title rival thierry neuville. tadej pogacar continued his dominance at the tour de france by claiming his fourth stage victory. the slovenian attacked with five and a half miles to go. he closed a gap of almost three minutes and overtook three other riders to win. pogacar is now leading by more than five minutes with just two days to go.

protecting athletes from concussions and their possible long term effects is now a major consideration for most sports governing bodies. well, british cycling will become the first cycling federation to introduce a test to determine whether a cyclist has suffered a concussion from a crash and if they should get back on their bike. team gb cyclists at the paris olympics will have their saliva analysed to test for possible concussions. doctors hope this will make it easier to diagnose them and help them advise if a rider should return to competition. it's part of a research project between british cycling and marker diagnostics, a company which specialises in biomarkers. so live it is a handy fluid compared to blood. it is very easy to access, and it doesn't require any special

expertise to take a saliva swab. for athletes especially, the work we're doing with richer cycling, where we are also going to be able to quite detailed data with regards to performance, is also going to be up to help inform that decision as to when can they get back on their bike and also get back to performance, and also get back to performance, and when they can push themselves safe in the knowledge there. injury has recovered. the olympics begin a week today in paris, and one gold medal hope for team gb is world champion freestyle bmx rider, kieran reilly. he started his summer with a gold at the european games in poland, then just two months later became world champion in glasgow. now he's looking to complete the set by winning in paris. reilly gained notoriety in freestyle bmx riding when he became the first to perform a triple kick flair — three backflips with a 180—degree twist.

i mentioned this trick in passing him a like i do double affairs, imagine doing a trip up there, it was almost a joke, and it went from i want to do this trick to buy the end i crashed 20 times, spent two weeks trying it, and thought i needed to do this trick and not let you beat me. when i landed it, it was insane, really, the best rush and feeling i ever had. the world's top athletes have travelled to london to complete their olympic preparations in the diamond league. british sprinting hopes are high this summer with zharnel hughes and dina asher—smith both hopeful of medals and both looking forward to the competition, despite the games not being at home. it just makes my itjust makes my heart want to have a european olympics because we all know that london was the best, it was the best, and i think that is one of those non—negotiable facts, all the current athletes think about london as so good, they say if

you're been in london, oh my gosh. but not as an athlete, we are like 0k, but not as an athlete, we are like ok, we get the point london was the best, but there's a sense of excitement again for paris, and with it one hour a week, or a couple hours away from london, is almost a whole olympics. i've taken some time back to enjoy the sport— i've taken some time back to enjoy the sport and effect on days where i competed _ the sport and effect on days where i competed and loved going out and embracing the crowd and enjoyed what i do leading up to the moment, so that has— i do leading up to the moment, so that has changed a lot. obviously, here comes — that has changed a lot. obviously, here comes the fast times and you enjoying _ here comes the fast times and you enjoying yourself even more, so you are more _ enjoying yourself even more, so you are more eager to go out there and prove _ are more eager to go out there and prove to— are more eager to go out there and prove to yourself that you are capable — prove to yourself that you are capable just as much as anyone else, so i capable just as much as anyone else, so i am _ capable just as much as anyone else, so i am looking forward tojust having — so i am looking forward tojust having a — so i am looking forward tojust having a great time in paris, and delivering — having a great time in paris, and delivering what i know and people of doing _ phoebe gill is only 17 and is studying hard for her a levels next year — but she could become one of the most famous faces at the paris olympics. the teenager will be the youngest

british track athlete to take part in the olympic games for more than a0 years. mike bushell went to st albans in hertfordshire to meet her. the student from st albans who is set to make history at the paris olympics. while her schoolmates take a holiday halfway through their a—levels, 17—year—old phoebe gill will be the youngest athlete on the british olympic team in over a0 years — a childhood dream she never thought possible just a few months ago. my coach mentioned it to me at the start of the season, actually, that there was a possibility, and ijust couldn't believe it, i was like, "what? that's silly!" but now i'm actually, like, going to this event, i've actually got through, it doesn't feel like i've gotten through — i still feel like i need to, like, prove myself in some sort of way, and ijust need to let it sink in that i'm actually going. phoebe started to believe when she broke a long—standing under—18 800m european record in belfast in may, in the middle

of preparing for mock a—level exams at school. i remember being on the plane back and seeing all the instagram posts and i was like, "oh, it was a record — wow, that's amazing." and then i was back in the classroom pretending like nothing had happened. and i think it's really good because sometimes when you do a race like that, it can constantly be in your head and you're thinking about it. so it's been good to — you know, having to focus on studies whilst everything's been going on. a month later, phoebe confirmed her place on the olympic team by winning the british 800m title at the uk championships in manchester... phoebe gill takes the win! ..beating established stars and her idols — the likes ofjemma reekie. back in december, i went to lea valley for an indoor training session, and jemma was actually there, and i was asking for a photo because i was such a fan. and then to be racing alongside her was just incredible. and the fact that we just used each other to get to the line, i think it was... it really pushed me to finish. then coming away with the win was the most undescribable thing that could have happened.

despite her record—breaking run up to the olympics, phoebe's very keen to keep her feet very much on the ground by deciding not to go away to some pre—olympic training camp or to paris early, but to stay here with her mates on her home—from—home track at st albans, right until the last minute before her event begins. i think it's really good to keep the normality for as long as possible. it's great that, after a hard session, we canjust have banter with each other and just have a laugh. like any athlete, there are huge sacrifices... i just can't wait to share this, like, hotel and the olympic village with all these different athletes that i've been watching for so many years. once the gun goes off, itjust feels like me and the track, and, like, i'm the only person on that track, and i just can't wait to run with people i've been watching on the tv for so long! staying with athletics, it's always worth remembering that you haven't won until you're safely over the finish line. british teenagerjake odey—jordan learned that the hard way while competing in the heats of the 200 metres at the european athletics under 18

championships in slovakia. as you can see he was well in front and guaranteed first place. but he looked around, decided he had loads of time to ease up. big mistake! he was overtaken and finished fifth, which meant he didn't progress from his heat. surely a lesson learned. wimbledon singles and doubles champion, alfie hewitt has been selected for the paralympics gb squad, where he'll try to win the only major title that has eluded him. hewitt won his first wimbledon singles title last weekend for the first time, and then — later that day — played alongside gordon reid to win the doubles trophy for a sixth time. hewitt is a triple silver paralympic medallist and will hope to go one better in paris. our own bbc sport team is helping to mark the countdown to the paris games by raising awareness of climate issues — alongside sport england. they're four days into a 500—mile bike ride from manchester to paris,

very memorable goals in real in 2016. those teams travelled yesterday to france by train, and with 250 miles still to go on this cycle, that sounds like a sensible idea. sarah dawkins their multitasking at its finest. just a reminder of our top story before we go. shane lowry leads on the second day of the open. he is in the clubhouse on seven under. dan brown just two shots behind and justin rose birdied the 16th and 18th to put himself alongside dan brown. but tiger woods is going home afterfinishing over after two days. as is rory mcelroy. that's all from sportsday. hello. today has brought the uk's hottest weather of the year so far. temperatures for some climbed into the low 30s celsius, and look at this beautiful scene sent in by a weather

watcher in dorset. there was quite a lot of sunshine in places. however, that wasn't the story everywhere. more cloud in the mix here in county down. northern ireland and parts of scotland have seen quite a lot of cloud in advance of this frontal system. this is going to be sweeping its way eastwards over the weekend, bringing some outbreaks of rain and bringing something cooler and fresher. but for the time being, pretty warm and humid through this evening and tonight. quite misty and murky for south—west england and for wales, and these outbreaks of rain spinning in across northern ireland and western scotland. overnight lows between 13—17, maybe around 18 degrees in some places. so we head into tomorrow, and these outbreaks of rain affecting northern ireland, western scotland and then some heavy rain spinning in across the south—west of england and wales. but for eastern scotland and eastern england, we will hold on to something drier and a little bit brighter. and staying pretty warm as well — 25, 26, maybe 27 degrees. could see the odd sharp shower breaking out across east anglia, other parts of eastern england, but through south—west england, wales, into north—west england,

the isle of man, northern ireland, western scotland, we will see these outbreaks of rain, some of that rain on the heavy side. eastern scotland, say across aberdeenshire, likely to hold on to a bit more in the way of sunshine and temperatures into the low 20s celsius. now, as we head through saturday evening, we will see some of these heavy downpours pushing eastwards. we may see a few thunderstorms just clipping into the south—east corner, but all of that will sweep its way eastwards as we get into sunday, with a little temporary ridge of high pressure building in behind and some cooler, fresher air following from the atlantic. so a very different feel to the weather on sunday. some rain to start off across shetland, a residue of cloud across eastern england, then some spells of sunshine. but i think we will see a bit more cloud rolling its way in from the west through the day, perhaps giving one or two showers, but these temperatures north to south, 15—22 degrees. so certainly a cooler, fresher feel, and for the most part, we will stick with that into next week.

still feeling warm in any sunshine. it certainly won't be raining all the time, but there is some wet weather in the forecast. it's 7pm in london. this is the world today. chaos worldwide as a major it outage cripples

industries across the globe. banks shut down, and thousands of flights are cancelled. the chief executive of the company responsible apologises, blaming the global outage on a "single faulty content update". and i want to start with saying we're deeply sorry for the impact that we've caused to customers, to travellers, to anyone affected by this, including our companies. in a landmark opinion, the un's top court says the occupation of all the palestinian territories by israel is illegal and needs to end "as rapidly as possible". several people have been arrested after violence broke out in a suburb of the city of leeds. also coming up on the world today — we'll be at the royal albert hall for one of the biggest events of the classical music calendar — the first night of the proms.
