and it is the final day of the democratic national convention in chicago — delegates are gathering to witness vice—president kamala harris make the biggest speech of her life. officials in italy say it could be sometime, before the body of the final victim from a luxury yacht, which sank off the coast of sicily on monday, is recovered. the bayesian, was moored outside the harbour in porticello, when it was hit by a so—called water spout, or tornado at sea. five bodies have been brought ashore from the wreck, including the british tech entrepreneur, mike lynch. it's believed his 18—year—old daughter, hannah, is still missing. mark lowen has more from sicily. it was to celebrate his acquittal on fraud charges, his rehabilitation in public opinion. mike lynch bringing togetherfamily and colleagues on his luxury yacht. he never made it off alive. today, a source close to the family said he died when the bayesian sank on monday,

and that the final body, still missing, is believed to be his 18—year—old daughter, hannah. friends paid tribute to a giant of the tech industry. i knew him at the beginning of the internet. mike was a standout character and intellectually understood the implications of the internet when, frankly, most people over here were scrabbling around. you don't get to the scale of achievement that he's done without a very hard headed, tough determination, but obviously an intellect that is really extraordinary. the family ofjonathan bloomer, the chairman of morgan stanley, and his wifejudy, have now released a statement. describing them as "incredible people," and an "inspiration to many," after confirming the couple were among the other six people now known to have died. with the last body to recover, the divers went down for a fourth day this morning, scouring the wreckage on the seabed. a painstaking search with a painfulaim. the bayesian is still largely

intact, 50m underwater. the bodies found so far are believed to have been in the cabins sleeping when the storm hit. mr lynch is likely to have been in the master suite. his wife survived. the guests were next door — and then the ten crew. all of them were rescued, apart from the chef, ricardo thomas. the company that built the bayesian showing off its portfolio of other luxury yachts online, insists it was utterly safe. and despite the violent storms that night caught on cctv drenching the coast where the bayesian sat, the company's head says for it to have gone down so quickly, human error must be to blame. tranlation: it had i absolutely no problem. it was a model for many other ships because it was so stable. water must have flooded in, maybe through a side door left open. without that, even in such a storm it would have been unsinkable.

the weather alerts clearly show that the storm would arrive at 4:00am. the captain should have closed every hatch, raised anchor, sailed into the wind and lowered the keel. then everyone could have gone back to sleep and the crews would have happily continued. and so the end may be in sight for the divers' work, perhaps bringing loved ones closer to that term they may never reach — closure. the bbc has sacked the one show presenterjermaine gene—as, presenterjermaine jeneas, after complaints about his alleged behaviour in the workplace. the former footballer who's also appeared on match of the day, has been taken off air with immediate effect. here's lizo mzimba. the one show, the bbc�*s prime—time magazine show. jermainejenas, a regular co—host. this week we have had a host of massive stars on the show, and tonight is no different. he's been helping present the programme since 2020, a familiar, friendly face to millions of viewers.

it is a great weekend of football. the former england midfielder, who also played for tottenham hotspur and newcastle united, turned to broadcasting after his retirement from football. if you look at, you know, iraola's start to the season with bournemouth... as well as the one show there was match of the day, where he was a regular pundit, earning close to £200,000 a year. this afternoon in a statement the bbc said jermaine jenas was no longer part of the corporation's presenting line—up. bbc news understands his contract was terminated because of alleged issues relating to workplace behaviour and that these issues involving digital communications such as texts were raised with a corporation a few weeks ago. this evening he spoke about the allegations to talksport news. i can't really talk about it. i, as you can probably see, i am not happy about it. but currently, as it stands, i'm going to have to let the lawyers deal with it.

you know, there are two sides to every story. it has been reported you sent unsolicited text to a female member of staff at the one show. is that true? i am not happy about this situation. look, i'm going to be speaking to my lawyers about it is all i can say right now. earlier, jermainejenas, here on the right, had been presenting as the news was breaking. talksport said they were made aware of the allegations only as he was going on here and decided he should continue. after today they said they have no plans for him to appear in the immediate future. tonightjermainejenas arrived at his home saying nothing more about his forced departure from the bbc. lizo mzimba, bbc news. a drug shown to slow the progression of early stage alzheimers disease, has been licensed for use in britain, but is unlikely to be available on the nhs in england. scotland and wales have yet to make a decision,

but charities hope that today's licencing permission for private patients, will pave the way for other similar drugs currently in development. fergus walsh was granted exclusive access, to the uk trials. that's fine. all right. yeah. mavis is a rarity, one ofjust a few alzheimer's patients in the uk who are receiving lecanemab. she's been having an infusion every fortnight for several years. this was november 2022. mavis was part of a trial which showed the drug delayed progression of early alzheimer's by around four to six months. do you remember we used to watch the ducks in there? her husband is grateful for the extra time. it's enabled mavis to keep her personality. i mean, she's still our mavis. she always was bright and cheery and she still is. we've had some wonderful years since you came on this drug, haven't we? yeah. and some great times. yeah.

and i'm grateful for it, too. my, goodness, you know, it's making a difference to your life, isn't it? now i heard... yes? ..that you had a big coffee morning this morning? - 0h, did i? do you remember that? no, i don't. lecanemab is not a wonder drug. mavis' short term memory remains badly affected. it works by clearing a rogue protein which builds up in the brains of alzheimer's patients. i've calculated lecanemab is likely to cost around £20,000 a year privately, but administering the drug and brain scans will probably double that, which the health assessment body, nice says does not represent value for money. you hold that for me, please? right. and i'll use this on your left, ok? there are dozens of similar drugs going through clinical trials. alzheimer's charities want the nhs

to get ready for this new era of treatment. this is a defining moment for alzheimer's disease and gives us real hope for the future. but we have some big challenges ahead because the key to getting access to this treatment, or any potential future treatment, will be getting an early and accurate diagnosis. and we're nowhere near that at the moment. lecanemab can cause brain swelling and bleeding, so patients need careful monitoring. despite the risks and its modest benefits, many alzheimer's researchers regard lecanemab as a turning point because it shows this dreaded disease has its weaknesses and better drugs will follow. fergus walsh, bbc news. two bulldogs, thought to be involved in the death of a 33—year—old man near birmingham, are still on the loose, despite police efforts to capture them. two other dogs were seized at the scene of the attack, in the village of rubery. here's phil mackie. this is where the man's body

was found in the early hours of yesterday, in the back garden of a small maisonette on the outskirts of birmingham. tonight, police confirmed that the four dogs which lived at the property, belonged to the brother of the man who died. two are still on the loose. this is a picture of one of the ones they're looking for. this footage was taken a short distance away, about two hours after the police were first called, but they're not certain if they're the same dogs. all day we've seen the search carrying on and including a police helicopter, which has been circling now for a long time, looking at every part of this estate on which the man's body was found, as they desperately tried to find the two animals which are still at large. nearby woods were one of the areas where the search focussed, but this evening the dogs still hadn't been found. do you believe that these dogs do pose a risk to the public? i don't know what happened in that address. i know that somebody has got really serious injuries as a result of dog bites. but what i do want to do is make

sure that we get hold of them dogs as quickly as we can. a postmortem examination has been carried out to determine exactly how and when the man died. his family are being supported. phil mackie, bbc news, rubery. to chicago now where kamala harris is getting ready for one of the biggest moments of her life — in the next few hours she will take centre stage — and give the keynote address at the democratic national convention. this is the scene live where the us vice president will formally accept the democratic nomination for president, hoping to become the first female president in the country's history. but she won't be alone on stage there will also be speeches from michigan governor gretchen whitmer and north carolina governor roy cooper, who both represent swing states. pop star pink is also expected to perform. our chief presenter sumi somaskana is at the dnc in chicago for us. quite the week" the finale, isn't it? it quite the week" the finale, isn't it? ., , , ., .,

running next week on her battleground tour, which is good to be getting more states and speak in more people. what other think you know, you've been showing live pictures from inside the arena, it's filled up quickly for the a lot of people on hand you will see quite a few people wearing white and that is an oma's to the suffragettes, the women's suffrage movement. that is something we seem kamala harris to perhaps two before, where white and that could be a sign that we will seize her in something like that tonight but we're not sure. it's being billed as the biggest night of her political life. how important will this be, is there an expectation that it will win over those key undecided voters? it's hard to say whether the speech could win over some undecided voters with “p win over some undecided voters with up the biggest stage that she has had in her career so far. this is an opportunity not only for her to speak to a party, to the delegates on hand at this convention is beamed across the country. it's on all

screens. it certainly is going to be a chance for her to tell more people about why she believes she should be the next president of the united states for the one important element to keep in mind, there's been such enthusiasm at this convention, such joy enthusiasm at this convention, such joy and euphoria as it's been described here are among the delegates, among kamala harris supporters for the what she really wants to do is to be in that enthusiasm to the screens to some of those voters at home who might not know whether they want to vote for her or if they want to vote in november. for her to be able to channel that enthusiasm and to get people excited about her campaign, there's no better opportunity for her to do that in tonight. it's hard to say whether there will be a huge boost in support for her after the convention. conventions are a big celebration, they are hardly orchestrated and highly produced. she could really break through that for that if she wants to tonight would be the night.— would be the night. sumi somaskana, len would be the night. sumi somaskana, plenty more — would be the night. sumi somaskana, plenty more from _ would be the night. sumi somaskana,

"russia will win," she says "and nothing will be left of ukraine."

for more than two weeks now the russian military has been struggling to regain control in kursk region. this is embarrassing for the kremlin. but president putin used flag day to praise russian soldiers, past and present, for defending the motherland. president putin has a difficult balancing act here. on the one hand, ukrainian soldiers still fighting inside russia. that is a huge challenge to his authority. he will be desperate to restore control. on the other hand, he doesn't want the russian public to panic about this and so the authorities here create the image almost as business as normal, everything under control. but russians don't seem to feel that. there is unease, apprehension. especially now that young conscripts are reportedly being sent to kursk region. grigori runs an ngo outside russia.

it helps russian men escape conscription. translation: we've been getting more calls from young _ men or their relatives because they are being deployed to kursk region. there's been a big reaction to this in russia. contract soldiers who have decided to fight are one thing. conscripts are completely different, people understand they don't go voluntarily. this russian commander dismissed parents' concern. "if you think your conscript sons shouldn't have to defend the country," he said, "why does our country need you or your children?" the kremlin says that with the tricolor, russia has become a great power. but it is war in ukraine is bringing greater certainty. steve rosenberg, bbc news, moscow. ajudge in romania has ruled that the social media influencer and self—described misogynist, andrew tate, must be

kept under house arrest, while prosecutors investigate new allegations against him and his brother, tristan. romania's serious crime agency has alleged that they were part of a criminal group which groomed women, forced them to make explicit video content and kept the proceeds. one of the brothers who is not named is accused of having sex with a fifteen year old girl. they've strongly denied the allegations. from bucharest, here's our correspondent sarah rainsford. romanian prosecutors asked the judge here at the central court in bucharest to remand the tate brothers in custody, whilst their investigation into these very serious new allegations continues. but in actualfact, thejudge ruled that andrew tate could be moved to house arrest and his brother has been freed under certain judicial controls. that was quite a surprise for the prosecutors who will appeal it, and also for the investigating officers here, because the allegations are extremely serious. we know from the prosecution that they are talking about a criminal gang that they are accusing

of trafficking and grooming dozens of women, vulnerable people, they say, coercing them into making explicit video content for the internet and then keeping for the internet and then keeping the proceeds, several million the proceeds, several million dollars, is the amount that's dollars, is the amount that's included in that statement included in that statement that we got today. that we got today. also, one of the tate brothers also, one of the tate brothers has been accused of sex has been accused of sex with a 15 year old girl, with a 15 year old girl, an underage girl. an underage girl. i asked andrew tate i asked andrew tate about that this evening. about that this evening. he wouldn't answer that, he wouldn't answer that, but he was absolutely furious but he was absolutely furious about this whole new investigation. about this whole new investigation. he was he was shouting and defending himselfjust a while ago here outside the court, here outside the court, saying it was the whole thing was a setup. saying it was the whole there is no evidence. he then drove away without answering he then drove away without answering any further questions. now remember that both of the tate any further questions. brothers are already accused of and formally charged with human of and formally charged with human trafficking, and they are just trafficking, and they are just awaiting a trial date on those charges, which, again, they have always denied. again, they have always denied. the investigation continues the investigation continues into the new allegations. into the new allegations. the prosecutors have gained the prosecutors have gained

access to the tate's home. access to the tate's home. they've taken evidence away. they've taken evidence away. they have computers.

it's a match—up site for the suicidal. those posts were made by angela's son, brett. he was fun, he was always happy, always laughing, always smiling. i would say to brett... ..there's no problem that we can't solve. he didn't have to go down that path. 28 and struggling with his mental health, brett found the thread where users advertised for a partner to die with. there, he met a young woman. they travelled to scotland and ended their lives together. you go on there, you speak to different members that are in the forum and you pick out,

a bit like tinder where you swipe. is that the ethos of it? where i quite fancy the sound of that person, or what that person is saying. so i'll see if i can hook up with them. it's just absolutely vile. his death is far from being an isolated case. the authorities know all about it, but so far haven't closed it down. that place that brett used to find a partner, well, it's still active. i'm on it right now. we've gone through all the messages and found more than 5,000 people have posted here looking for someone to die with. of them, more than 700 are from the uk. even more worrying, we've found dangerous men using it to target young women. those are the posts of craig mcinally from glasgow,

now in prison, unlikely ever to be released. he used the thread to find women to abuse, choke and hurt — all for his own sexual pleasure. one of those was romanian student, roberta babos, just 22 when she died. this is her mother, maria. i talk with her here alone. what do you say? everything. everything what i... ..what i think is the moment, i talk with her. and these are mcinally�*s messages to her. she survived a meeting with him, but driven deeper into the forum, she finally ended her own life. it's horror. if the website did not exist,

would roberta still be alive? yes, i'm sure. roberta is still here with me. for the parents of the dead, grief, but anger too at this site, still matchmaking the suicidal. angus crawford, bbc news. and if you've been affected by any of the issues raised in angus' report, there's more information, on the bbc�*s action line. let's take a look at tomorrow's front pages. and many of the papers pick up on the medicines watchdog blcoks the use of a landmark drug which can slow the progression of the early stages of alzheimer's shouldn't be made available on the nhs in england. the daily express makes their feelings clear, and asks: "why is it only the rich who can get the alzhemiers's wonder drug?". the daily mail carries pictures of

now the weather with louise lear. hello there. storm lillian will dominate the first half of friday, but it's moving at quite a pace and so by lunchtime the worst of the weather will have cleared away. however, before then, a spell of heavy rain, but more importantly, some gales, unseasonably strong winds for this time of year and still many people on holiday. the strongest of the winds likely to be to the scottish borders down into north wales and the north midlands, a zone of winds gusting widely 5060 miles an hour, widely 50, 60 miles an hour, maybe even stronger in one or two places up to 75 miles an hour. that front will ease its way steadily eastwards, so already we can see the first signs of an improving picture into the northwest of scotland. this is 6:00 friday morning. a spell of very heavy rain, maybe even some thunder clearing the scottish borders first thing and the gusts of wind widely 50, close to 60 miles an hour at time. a rash of sharp showers across northern england.

a trail of cloud and nuisance rain once again through the midlands and southeast england. that will ease away. the low pressure moves over to scandinavia and then a quieter afternoon, not quite as windy. still blustery winds, driving in some scattered showers to the far north and west 1a to 18 degrees. the high in scotland and northern ireland 23 degrees. the high, perhaps in southeast england, but as we move out of friday into the early hours of saturday morning, there could be a pulse of very wet weather moving its way into south east and eastern england. now, we haven't seen that much in the way of rain this august, so that will bring a spell of much needed rain for the gardens out there, but it will linger for some time on saturday, only slowly easing away into the afternoon. strong as the winds further north and west. here we'll see a frequent rash of showers on and off throughout the day. top temperatures generally a little bit below par for this time of year. now from sunday and into

bank holiday monday,
