hello. i'm lauren taylor. let's return now to the news that details of compensation to be paid to victims of the infected blood scandal have been set out today. richard warwick is one of the treloar school pupils who we heard from in the report we ran earlier. let's hear more from him now. my my parents were advised for me to go down to the specialist boarding school in hampshire because i was losing so much schooling at home, spending time in hospital. it was a long way for me to travel so a long way for me to travel. it's 300 miles, but after a lot of back and forth, my parents decided

that yes, 0k, we'll send our son down there because they offered world class care and of course, on site education. so it was a win win. it was perfect. it seemed that way. um, i went down at ten and after a few years, a few months, they, um, started changing treatments and giving me excessive amounts of freeze dried concentrate, imported mainly from the states. um, boys were walking around on many a number of occasions with jaundice, yellow skin and eyes, and we didn't really think a lot of it. we sort of shrugged it off, and it wasn't really until the inquiry, uh, delved into what happened at the school and spent a week of doing conducting hearings about treloars in 2021, and that we really found out what happened. it was one big research project, and the school were actively recruiting children to use them as test subjects in infectivity trials and other experiments. sir brian langstaff in his final report devoted a whole

volume to this — volume two — and condemned, criticised the practices at at the schools there, calling them unethical and wrong. and we feel that it was a breach of the nuremberg code, perhaps, and the declaration of helsinki. and they had this total disregard for the lives of the children that went down there. and as i understand it, you contracted hepatitis b, is that right? and you also contracted hiv, but you weren't told about it until later. yeah. hepatitis b, cand hiv, um, all at the school or at the college. i wasn't told, although i was diagnosed in �*81i, i wasn't told until 1988. there was a four—year gap when i was totally ignorant of the fact that i had hiv. and so when you found that it was, you know, investigated and all these findings came out in the report, how did you feel at that point? because you've had a long campaign anyway to try and get compensation. we were shocked. i mean, we knew something was wrong. we didn't know to the extent

of what was being done and the lengths at which the school went to to recruit young children with haemophilia from around the uk. there was this huge recruitment drive going back as far as 1969, to get boys into the school, specifically for the purpose of conducting research on them, which we found unfathomable, unbelievable. when we actually heard the evidence and read the evidence. and that's where this £15,000 figure comes in. we spent a long time with the cabinet office, a cabinet office meeting withjohn glenn, the former paymaster general, back in the early summer. and we pushed we pushed him and said, "look, we've got to look at this case as something specific, you know, i mean, sir brian dedicated a whole volume to it. we spent a week on it at the inquiry, and we don't know

where this arbitrary £15,000 figure comes from. and so in the end, what do you know what your compensation package is? because presumably you will get other compensation from... that everyone else will get. and then this on top is that is that how you understand it will work? absolutely. we very, very much welcome the fact that the government has agreed to all but five of the, um, 7a recommendations. that's fantastic news. and the fact that ongoing payments are going to continue, and there's going to be provision for legal aid. it's just this one point which the surviving children and their families can't, just cannot understand. where did this arbitrary £15,000 figure come from for what in some cases was ten years of experimentation on children. and so i've done secretively

in a closed environment, um, at treloar school in hampshire. and i just want to ask you what your i mean, i know that you've had a lifelong impact from this tainted blood scandal. what do you think your biggest regret is as part of all this? and do you think the lessons have been learned? my biggest regret. um, i don't know that it's my biggest regret. i mean, the government have for, for decades said there's basically there's nothing to see here. there's no need to have a public inquiry. um, and now we have had, finally had this public inquiry. we've actually all of us have seen what went on for what it was. um, i wish this had been done two decades earlier. i really do. when people were still alive to be able to to to answer for their actions. breaking news from india where you will remember there have been big demonstrations after a female

trainee doctor was raped and murdered in west bengal state. the -rocess murdered in west bengal state. the process have intensified after the hospital where she worked was vandalised and was attacked during the massive march in protest against their crime against her. they have been smaller protests held in other indian cities like delhi, hyderabad, mumbai... that protest seems to be happening in delhi just outside the hospital where the female trainee doctor was raped and murdered. this is a case that has brought a lot of condemnation from groups, but also condemnation from groups, but also condemnation from groups, but also condemnation from the prime minister earlier in the week. we were given ion the process. —— we will keep an eye on the process. police in the uk are constantly looking at different ways to tackle knife crime — and the devastating impact it can have on communities. a new team has been formed in bristol to do just that —

and our west of england correspondent, danjohnson, has spent some time with them. that's the car, the grey one. yeah, we got a car, but it's been covering space up. you're about to see the sort of weapons carried by some young people. the grey car full of teenagers has refused to stop for police. stay where you are! stay where you are, all of you. get your hands out now! now! weapon out! weapon found. everyone hands where we can see them. step away from the car. i'm on my way. that's come from inside the vehicle. there's a girl... hop out the car, love. ..and fouryoung men, all between 16 and 18. 0k, next time you're under arrest for possession of a bladed article in a public place. it's 11:30 on a wednesday morning. officers have just stopped this car in a bristol suburb. they have searched it and retrieved these enormous knives. no—one's out with balaclavas and zombie knives with good

intentions, are they? so do you think stopping them today, seizing those knives could have at least stopped something more serious? absolutely. yeah. that's the whole point in doing this. there is no upside. there's no positive. no—one wins. and then that poor decision in a split second can ruin the rest of their life, it could ruin the rest of the other person's life. here's one life lost at 19. nobody�*s been charged with stabbing eddie kinuthia last summer, despite arrests. so his family's left with his last desperate moments, bleeding to death on the street in the arms of his mother. when i got there and i saw him, um, the look on his face of, like, just shock, like just that panicked look on his face. i kept telling him to stay awake and he tried. he really tried because i kept telling him, help is coming. you know, the thing that i struggle

most with is wanting to go back. if we can do it again, and i can do it better. and there's grief across this city. after a surge of teenage knife crime costing young lives in both blood and prison sentences. morning. we'll talk about the children that are linked to the murder of darrian williams. that will be the agenda for today's briefing. and this is the team sworn to protect young people from a life of violence and the criminal exploitation so often behind it. has he spoken to his mum and dad since he's been missing? he spoke to his mum yesterday at midday. it's the first time one of these weekly meetings has been filmed. what do you say to the people who may be a bit more, "look, these kids know what they're getting into." i think it is really important to understand each individual person because we don't know what's happened in that person's life — that child's life.

a lot of our children have trauma, and it's really important that we understand that because actually putting a child in prison is not the answer. it's not the solution because they'll come out of prison. so what then? what one do you normally have? do you want a... ..full face? full of brains, that's why. try and push that one down. is that all right? this is mostly about teenage boys, as victims or perpetrators — sometimes both. but here they know it starts so much younger. there's as young as six or seven—year—olds carrying knives. and i think fear is the main factor why they're carrying a knife. when you think of a seven, eight—year—old, you think of a young person who's got innocence, you know? and i think at the moment we're seeing young people losing that innocence from such a young age. whether they take to the saddle... how are you doing, mate? ..or the barber's seat. here, open, honest conversations are encouraged. but what makes you not want to be able to go out? i just don't feel safe outside. yeah. i feel more safe inside of my house, not outside. and when you come here,

do you feel safe? ijust can have a nice time without having many worries about anything bad happening. have you been shocked by some of what you've seen? yeah, the scale and size of the weapons is horrifying and the traumatic nature of the injuries. young people and children are more concerned about being caught without a knife by someone that might wish them harm than they are more concerned about being caught by police with a knife and being arrested. i think we just need to tip that balance the other way. but there are no simple answers to this complex issue. why are you driving around with a knife like that? don't know. you're carrying it. why? don't know, mate. so i'm not the odd one out, maybe. so why carry it? i'm into knives, innit? i like the way they look and that. weapons are seized, arrests follow. this 16—year—old for possessing a knife. so too the 18—year—old

who was driving without a licence or insurance — their fate is still to be determined. and the bereaved also want answers. we're still waiting forjustice and we're still waiting for somebody to be responsible. but then being stuck on that day, going over and over it frequently and just wanting a different outcome. do you have hope you will getjustice one day? i do, i really do. i'm never giving up. i miss him, i miss his hugs. i miss, like, his laughter, you know? imiss... i miss dancing with him. eddie's story sums up this city's challenge. but knife crime and its impact reaches further, and it needs much wider solutions.

hundreds of flights and bullet train services have been cancelled, as another typhoon approaches japan. typhoon �*ampil�* is expected to skirt the tokyo region, home to almost a0 million people, before heading up the pacific coast. it comes days after tropical storm �*maria' dumped record rain. jim dale, meteoroligist and co—author of �*surviving extreme weather�* has been monitoring the progress of of typhoon ampil. looking at a radar picture at the moment it is a real spinning jesse. it's about 150 miles off the kanto region ofjapan, which includes tokyo. so it is a very vivid, vivid storm. it's got a nice eye, which appears to be very placid, but it's certainly not placid on the outskirts. we're looking at winds, sustained winds, by the way, of100 mph, 135 mph gusts. as well as that, we've got the potential of landslides,

of huge amounts of rainfall. so we're talking about potentially, anyway, 80mm per hour, which is equivalent to a wet day in manchester for the, i say, a wet day, a wet month in manchester. so you can see it can put a lot of, um, a lot of rain down very quickly, storm surges as well, particularly along that coast. it's going to move north in a north, northeasterly direction. so it'll probably stay offshore. but evacuations have already taken place. so it is a real and present danger. taylor swift has been back on stage — this time in london — a week after her concerts in vienna were cancelled after a suspected plot to attack fans was uncovered. the singer performed the first of five sell—out shows at wembley — the last dates of the tour�*s european leg. our music correspondent marc savage was there. 92,000 fans poured into wembley stadium dressed in tassels, sequins and ball gowns,

as taylor swift returned to the uk. this was her first time on stage since an alleged terror plot against her shows in austria last week. some fans who missed out when those concerts were cancelled managed to make it to london. i was just so devastated and the whole city really did have an air of depression. there was kind of a cloud over the city, but i managed to get very last minute tickets last night, finished work early today, ran here, and i'm here now. there was increased security at wembley and fans who didn't have tickets were warned to stay away. that didn't stop some of them gathering outside to sing along. and they were just as enthusiastic as the fans who managed to get inside. everyone is so friendly. all the friendship bracelets, the amount of people that stopped and said, happy birthday and wanted to swap wristbands. anywhere you go at any taylor swift thing, at any event, everyone isjust, it'sjust like a community. i think that she is, like,

so sisterhood, like, she joins every single girl here. i really think she is like an idol because she has been - through so much and then she still, like, rises like a phoenix. _ on stage, taylor chose to celebrate her music and her fans rather than dwell on recent events, and there was a special treat in the shape of a surprise appearance from ed sheeran. she plays another four nights at wembley before the eras tour returns to north america for its final leg. when it ends in december it will have taken more than $2 billion in ticket sales alone. mark savage, bbc news. the new premier league season kicks off tonight with manchester united hosting fulham at old trafford. 0ne team eagerly awaiting the chance to compete is ipswich town. they've been promoted back into the world's biggest league 20 years, the side will return , with increased financial backing from long—time fan ed sheeran. mike bushell looks back at the team's incredible journey,

ahead of their home match against liverpool on saturday. music: baba 0'riley by the who. ipswich town back in the big time. rekindling memories of their glory days, when they were one of english football's powerhouses — the late 1970s and the fa cup — european silverware just a few years later. the blue and white of ipswich on the trophy for the first time. but now the class of �*24 has found its voice — inspired by their most famous fan, ed sheeran. # we've got super kieran mckenna... not many players celebrate winning promotion to the premier league by going on a night with a global superstar. and while, yes, he's helped put his beloved club back on the world stage, above all else, he's just one of the fans. it's notjust, like, big league games you see him — i know we're going into the prem — you see him at, like... you know, colchester away in the cup sort of thing, and it's. . . it's incredible. and, you know, i've been

there in the north stand and everyone goes, "0h, ed sheeran�*s in the stand," and then you turn round and you go, "ed!" and he goes, "whey!" and it's the best thing ever. so it's... you know, having someone local who's kind of made it, it's the best thing. because he's still one of us, he's wearing the jersey, you know, when he's on tour and stuff like that, it's incredible. # and we won the fa cup. # we support the ipswich... when you've waited 22 years, you're going to want to make a song and dance about it. promotion back to the premier league, and there is so much excitement in the build—up to the big kick—off across the town — especially in the pubs, where fans are joined by ex—players — even those from the european glory days. it was just good fun. i had a lovely gentleman came across the car park a minute ago and just said, you know, "thanks for all the good days we had," you know. and i said, "but i was just playing football with my mates," you know, and that's what it was — you're

playing football with very good friends, it was very competitive. uh... and it was... it was a bit of a giggle. yes, there's been a demise over the last 20—odd years, but we're back — we're back in the premier league. and a whole generation has missed out on premier league football, with the club dropping for several seasons into the third tier. it's the first i've ever seen ipswich in the premier league — it's amazing, especially after the seasons in league one, you know. couldn't ask for more. it'sjust, like, amazing, isn't it? and, like, just to be living, present — like, as it's - happening, it's so cool. a lot of people thought i was absolutely crazy going to watch, you know, fleetwood at home and accrington stanley away. but now it's going to be liverpool at home and man city away. it's... it's like the old days, you know, when i was growing up. it never even crossed my mind ipswich wouldn't be in the top division. ed sheeran�*s investment and sponsorship of the shirts with his latest tour branding, combined with the support and work of the club's american owners, watered and nourished the roots of recovery.

and reaching the promised land is already paying off, bringing the whole of suffolk together behind the club again. this is erin, 12 weeks old. ipswich's youngest fan. impact is massive — you know, you really see that through your shirt sales. shirt sales are an indication of how supporters are engaging with the club. around four years ago we were selling 10,000 a season. last year, 60,000. this year we'll be on course for 100,000 shirts, whichjust shows that engagement is really strong now with our supporters. young george burley stylish at fullback. i it's an especially poignant moment for george burley — who, as part of the fa cup—winning team in 1978, and who managed the club for many years, but was unable to save it from relegation 22 years ago. he now believes the club has helped the town find its soul again. everybody wants to go and watch ipswich play. everybody. when i take the dog for a walk in the morning in the park, they want to talk about football. three or four years, that wasn't the case, but now it's really gave the town a big lift. the town's going to be full of people from abroad coming to games. everybody wants tickets.

so it's a very exciting time. the dressing room is normallyjust a place for team talks, but ipswich's players know from last season that a famous victory now in the premier league will most likely mean a sing—along with ed again. mike bushell, bbc news, ipswich. # what it was. # i will not give you up... i caught up with two long—time fans of ipswich town, audrey cobb and host of the ipswich town podcast, blue monday, richard woodward. i mean, when you've been an ipswich town fan for such a long time, it's the kind of thing that dreams are made of. richard, if i could bring you in, you've obviously got a professional role in this, but you're also a fan. so how are you going to play you're your pre—match banter this evening? well, we did our pre—match show last night, and we were looking back and realising that a few years ago we did a preview for the game against morecambe. and no disrespect to morecambe, but we got about 700 people watching. 0ur liverpool preview already at a few thousand, so that gives you an indication of the level of interest that's there, both locally but also

nationally and internationally now. and tell us how the club's been turned around and the role of the new manager. tell us how he's played that. oh, yeah. well, kieran mckenna's almost a messiah—like figure in ipswich at the moment. just unbelievable resurgence, but a really astute coach, a really grounded individual who knows the importance of the community but also engaging the fan base. and that's been huge. a big credit to the owners, of course, and the chairman, mark ashton, for bringing him in. and it feels like a real lightning—in—a—bottle moment for the whole club and the community. bringing everyone together. and the back—to—back promotions are a kind of culmination of all that hard work. richard, ed sheeran, obviously we mentioned his role. how important do you think that's been in bringing the club forward? oh, it's been certainly at least huge for shirt sales. again, town fans are buying into that in big amounts. but, you know, internationally, as i say, ed sheeran is probably a bigger name than the football club as well. certainly is in the last few years, but even more so now. and his support has been huge.

um, and he's even got involved in promoting the new season for the premier league, driving a big blue tractor as well. so we love that. and his support is massive for us and has sustained us really ahead of the new ownership. and great to see him being embraced by the new owners now. and you might need to explain for an international audience why the big blue tractor — that's because they're called tractor boys, is that right? tractor boys. yeah, it kind of comes in and out of fashion. it kind of kicked off in our last spell in the premier league some 22 years ago. it comes in and out of fashion, but ed appears to have brought it back, so good on him. so he's driving through the fields of suffolk in a big blue tractor singing the boys are back in town. and, audrey, how much of the ed sheeran effect, how much is it...? have you noticed that or felt it? 0h, ever so much. yeah. i mean, goodness me, he's the kind of person that you need to keep your team where it is and as popular as it is with the fans. i mean, you can have somebody from up the road, or you can have somebody who's like ed sheeran, who isjust, well, he's the best.

i mean, honestly, he can't do any more from the club than he does already. he's absolutely brilliant. and, richard, just back to you on the game coming up. i mean starting with liverpool. that's quite a tough assignment, isn't it? and with the return to the premier league. but that as a first match? yeah. and then man city next week as well. so you couldn't have asked for two more daunting fixtures. um, you know, the names that we're used to hearing about in the opposition have certainly got a higher level of calibre and standing in the world game. but what a great start to be at portman road as well. you know, the stadium, as your report talks about, will be bouncing and hopefully that atmosphere will make portman road a difficult place for opposition clubs, even the likes of liverpool, to come and try and get a result. so we're hopeful. and before a ball is kicked, anything is possible, i guess. now it's time for a look at the weather. hello. whilst some of us had some pretty heavy rain yesterday and overnight,

today and into the weekend brings a window of drier and more settled weather on the cards. so for most of us, the weather is looking predominantly dry through the rest of today and into the weekend with some sunshine around, and things will feel pleasantly warm in that sunshine. the windiest weather will be found out towards the northwest of the uk, closer to this area of low pressure, which will throw a few showers in at times across parts of scotland. but further south, once we lose this frontal system that's brought some early cloud and rain to the southeast, that should clear away. a lot of dry weather on the cards. so some fairly strong uv levels out there for the rest of today for many of us. we've just got those scattered showers blowing in across the western isles, the northern isles and parts of highland. temperatures between about 15 to 25 degrees for most of us. still some fairly high levels of pollen across england and wales. you'll notice that weed pollen this time of year, if you do suffer from an allergy to that. moving through this evening and tonight, still blustery showers continue across parts of scotland for a time. a little bit more cloud and breeze generally for scotland and for northern ireland. further south across england and wales, lighter winds,

one or two misty patches forming and actually quite a fresh start to saturday morning. in more rural spots, we could see six or seven degrees to kick off the weekend. so, into saturday, and this weather front is well and truly out of the way, sitting across the near continent. so a ridge of slightly higher pressure in charge. a westerly influence to our weather through the course of the weekend. and that breeze coming in from the west or the southwest across scotland will still bring one or two showers, but they'll be few and far between. further south, you'll stay dry, with the longest spells of sunshine across east anglia and the south—east. elsewhere, areas of cloud drifting around but a fine, settled sort of day. 15 to 2a degrees our top temperatures on saturday. similar day again into sunday. that westerly breeze bringing a few showers to parts of scotland, could be one or two around coasts and hills in the west of britain and northern ireland as well, but further east, long spells of sunshine once again. so, 1a to 25. fairly typical temperatures for this time of year. warm in any sunshine. but as high pressure clears away into next week, low pressure will start to influence us more from the atlantic.

so things turning a little bit more unsettled. still quite warm and humid, especially in the south on monday. a return to some showers and slightly fresher conditions, but still some sunny spells for the rest of next week. bye.

live from london. this is bbc news. an attack by extremist israeli settlers in the occupied west bank kill at least one palestinian man. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu promising to prosecute those responsible as ceasefire talks resume in qatar today. uk foreign secretary david lammy has landed in israel with his french counterpart to show they are "united" in their commitment to lasting peace in the middle east. china ramps up screening of goods and travellers amid a surge of mpox in africa, while the first case of the more dangerous strain is detected in europe. and prince harry and meghan are embraced in bogota, in what's been dubbed a diy royal tour to colombia.

hello, i'm lauren turner. we start in the middle east, where gaza ceasefire talks are resuming in qatar, after what a us official described as a "constructive" first day of discussions on thursday. israeli representatives are attending, but hamas, which runs gaza, has stayed away, accusing israel of changing its terms since previous rounds of talks. a hamas official also reiterated that, "any agreement must achieve a comprehensive ceasefire, a complete israeli withdrawal from gaza and the return of the displaced." on thursday, the hamas—run health ministry reported that the number of palestinians killed in gaza has passed 40,000, although israel disputes the figure. later, the families of israeli hostages still held captive in gaza following hamas�* october the 7th attacks, gathered to demand a deal to secure their release, with several thousand marching in tel aviv. a little earlier, our middle east correspondent, yolande knell, gave me a sense of how the ceasefire

talks have gone so far.
