he took 57% of the vote, thereby securing an outright victory and avoiding a run—off with his main rival. in a triumphant message on twitter, mr rouhani said the iranian people were "the real winners". our diplomatic correspondent paul adams has the details. in the end, it wasn't even close. the pragmatic hassan rouhani winning comfortably. for reform minded middle—class voters this was a significant victory. they came out in huge numbers, determined not to let hardliners take back the presidency. iranians know that their president is not a natural reform but they are weary of conflict and in the city is at least they are eager for change. mr rouhani seemed to represent their best hope. today he thanked them, addressed the international community. translation: today the world is well aware that the

iranians nation has chosen the path of interaction with the world. a path that is distant from extremism and violence. we seek to live in peace and friendship with the world but is not ready to accept any disrespect or threat. his biggest achievement so far, a nuclear deal signed with world powers two years ago. today one of those involved in the diplomacy said that she welcomed the diplomacy said that she welcomed the win. i note how competently is to continue the full recommendation of the agreement and how committed he is too engaging with the international community. iran pass regional ambitions in the middle east still complicate this difficult relationship. iran is a supporter of syria's president assad and in leather nun, iran supplies and phelps the hezbollah militia. and its influence in iraq remains enormous. the top administration says that the iran missile programme

the first part was achieved last week. standing between them and a place in the premiership final, exeter chiefs. there was little to separate the two sides in the first half. 6—6 with all the points coming from the boot. but straight after the break, exeter hit their stride. jack nowell scrambling over the line. a crucial lead against a team who beat them in last year's final. exeter had the momentum and the support of the home crowd butjoy soon turned to despair. in the last five minutes, an acrobatic finish from mike ellery. had saracens pulled off a great escape? but there was to be one final twist in the dying moments. sam simmons hustled and bustled his way over the line. exeter winning in the most dramatic fashion to deny saracens another double. the second semifinal was equally dramatic. wasps were hoping to make their first premiership final in nine years and it all started well enough. a well worked move with kurtley beale running in the first try.

leicester fought back and took the lead early in the second half. and they hung on until the final moments and looked set to cause what would have been a huge upset. until this. josh bassett sending wasps to the final for the first time since 2008, and a date against the exeter chiefs. ade adedoyin, bbc news. hundreds of guests and spectators gathered in englefield in berkshire for the wedding of pippa middleton, sister of the duchess of cambridge. her nephew and niece, prince george and princess charlotte had starring roles in the ceremony, as our royal correspondent nicholas witchell reports. a society wedding — a chance to, well, to gawp at the guests, for one thing. interesting for some. others may feel perhaps a little indifferent to it all. but of course this was rather more than a society wedding, with celebrity guests like tennis champion roger federer, because this was a middleton family wedding. so a wedding with royal connections. big sister catherine

arrived with two carloads of bridesmaids and page boys. among them were prince george, his hands firmly being held by his mother, and princess charlotte. they were ushered into church ready for the arrival of the bride. pippa middleton was driven to church in an open—top car with her father, michael. it rekindled memories of how it was six years ago when pippa played such a memorable supporting role at catherine's wedding at westminster abbey. today, she was the one pausing at the entrance for the photographers in a dress which fashion editors will spend pages describing. at the church door, the roles were reversed. it was kate lending the sisterly support, making sure the dress was as it should be. then, with a final pat on the shoulder, it was time for the service to begin. less than an hour later, the church bells sounded, and page boy george led the way out of church scattering flower petals, as the new mr and mrs james matthews

emerged together as man and wife. somewhere in the family group were princes william and harry. despite speculation in the press, harry had not brought his girlfriend meghan markle to the wedding. had he done so, it would have overshadowed everything. this was a day when the focus was on this couple and their wedding. nicholas witchel, bbc news, englefield. you can see more on all of today's stories on the bbc news channel. that's all from me. goodnight. hello, this is bbc news with myself, lu kwesa burak. hello, this is bbc news with myself, lukwesa burak. the headlines at 10:10. humberside police continue to hold two men under arrest over the disappearance of missing hull woman renata antczak. the 49—year—old mother of two has been missing for nearly a month. a number of properties are being searched. jo makel reports. police are still at two addresses in hull — the first, the home of the missing

mother of two. renata antczak was last seen almost four weeks ago, taking her daughter to school. yesterday, her black mercedes was taken away by officers. she was in it when she dropped her daughter off. her husband, majid mustafa, says she then returned home, before leaving on foot at one o'clock that afternoon. the other address is six miles away in emerald grove in the west of hull. neighbours say a polish couple live here and that a car has been removed by police. yesterday, they had also been at the dental practice where ms antczak‘s husband works. the police won't confirm whether he is one of two people arrested in connection with the disappearance. humberside police said today the two men, aged 47 and a5, are still being questioned. meanwhile, the appeals for information to help find ms antczak continue. the police say they still want to hear from anyone who can come forward and help them find her. jo makel, bbc news. new rules for cigarette packaging

come into force this weekend. all packs must be greenish—brown withjust a small space for the brand name and include a graphic warning of the dangers of smoking. the measures, aimed at discouraging young people from taking up the habit, also include a ban on selling packs of ten. tom burridge reports. persuading young people not to smoke. that's what the government hopes these new rules will do. from today, all cigarette packets have to be a standard green design, similar to this. health warnings must cover two thirds of the front and back of the packets. and you can no longer buy packets of ten. there will also be restrictions on e—cigarettes and on rolling tobacco, too. public—health campaigners say the number of people smoking in britain continues to fall and this is another positive step. it's too early to say how many will avoid taking up, but even if it's just a few percent that will have a big benefit in 20 or 30 years' time.

but the tobacco industry says greater restrictions will only push people to buy cigarettes elsewhere. we are seeing people actually not quitting or giving up smoking, but basically buying cheap tobacco from the black market. it's never been so expensive to smoke. the government wants to emphasise the possible health costs and persuade more to stub the habit out. a survey by which magazine has found that one in four flights to british airports arrived at least 15 minutes late last year. which analysed 850,000 flights at 25 british airports and found most uk airlines perform worse than average, with one in three easyjet flights delayed. the independent‘s travel editor, simon calder, explained how he'd looked further into the results of the research. they have looked at every single airline. i have been looking particularly at the british ones.

easyjet, by far britain's biggest budget airline, is very much the worst performer. just one in three flights arrived, sorry, one in three flights was officially late. talking to the airline about it, they say that across the entire system they are looking at only one in four being late, but of course they fly lots of places which don't go anywhere near britain. the headlines on bbc news, a welcome ceremony in riyadh marks day one of president trump's visit there. $350 billion with contracts between the us and saudi arabia have been agreed. the white house describes one defence—related deal as the biggest in us history. there is a disagreement within labour after the shadow foreign secretary says the party could abandon its support for trident. meanwhile, the tories defend their aim to cut net

migration after it is criticised by former chancellor george osborne. and the wedding has taken place pippa middleton, the sister of the duchess of cambridge. she married financierjames duchess of cambridge. she married financier james matthews in berkshire. home ownership among younger families has fallen by nearly two thirds in some parts of the uk since 1994, according to new research. the resolution foundation, a think—tank focusing on living standards, says outer london, the north west and parts of yorkshire were most affected. our business correspondent joe lynam has the details. it's usually assumed that soaring house prices in central london would have the greatest impact on affordability for younger households. but the resolution foundation says the north of england and outer london have been affected the most. it says home ownership among young families has fallen 63% in outer london towns, such as harrow and croydon. in west yorkshire, ownership fell by 52%

among families with adults between 25 and 3a, while the fall in greater manchester was 51% between 1994 and last year. a lot more families are living in the private rental sector, which is expensive, insecure, and often not a very nice place to live. but it also matters longer term. we've seen in the debate around social care this week that having a home is a key way that many people build up an asset over their lifetime. it really matters when you get old whether you own a house. they also say pledges by labour and the conservatives to build one million new homes lacked the required detail on how that might be achieved within five years. whether it's french champagne or italian prosecco, the uk's love of fizz shows no sign of slowing down. but the technique for making it was first documented not by a frenchman or an italian — but by a 17th century scientist in england. nick higham has more.

some call it brit fizz, or simply bubbly. its proper name is english sparkling wine, and it is made like champagne. the french will tell you the method was discovered by a frenchman. a monk called dom perignon in 1967. but here in winchcombe, they know better. on monday, they will put up a plaque on his birthplace to a local, christopher merritt, a pioneering scientist who recorded english scientists using the technique in 1662, more than 30 years before dom. he described the way they were adding sugar and molasses to the wine, which was making it sparkling. he described the way they were adding sugar and molasses to the wine, which was making it sparkling. he was the first person to actually use that word, "sparkling," in connection to wine, wasn't he? yes. at this gloucestershire winery, they use the technique.

they make it and add sugar and yeast to bring on what is called a secondary fermentation. we put the grapes into a vat, and we ferment them in the vats. that is the first. the second is in the bottle itself. from the first one you get bubbles, but we allow it to bubble off. then you get a secondary one, and you need to contain that within the bottle to give us the bubble in the finished sparkling wine. one reason, it's said, the english did it first is that english bottles were thicker and heavier. flimsy french bottles exploded when the fizz built up inside them. sparkling wine was a menace to french makers. english glass was much more robust.

english sparkling wine has a long history. even longer than champagne. but it has a long and cumbersome name as well. at this small vineyard in the coltswolds, they have tried to come up with a snappy title, with mixed success. we have come up with bullari, which is what we want to call it. it's derived from the latin word for bubbles. we thought about the welsh version, which was swigod, but i don't think that quite had the ring to it. "would you like a glass of swigod?" italians have prosecco, the spanish cava, and germans sekt. what is the english equivalent? perhaps we should call at winchcombe. imagine if you could unlock doors or control your phone using a tiny chip implanted in your hand. it sounds like something out of a sci—fi thriller, but for a growing number of people in the uk it's becoming a reality.

so—called bio—hackers are installing microchips into their bodies and programming them to perform everyday tasks. but will it catch on? danny savage went to meet some of them. this is a hack space, where people into their technology build stuff or take things apart and start again. a few of them, though, have technology implanted inside them. they have been chipped, fitted with near—field communication. buried in their hand, it can do tasks for them. phil's chip has been programmed to work as a key. so you can see that will open the doorfor me, so i can get in. it is the same technology we have been chipping cats and dogs with for the past 30 years. it is entirely benign. if anyone wanted to change it,

they would have to be within one centimetre of me, and i have a password on it as well. so you can't be turned into a cyborg assassin? nothing that exciting. my chip goes to my facebook art page as a digital business card. the chip in holly's hand directs people to her webpage. she sees a medical use in the future. i feel this is going to replace a hospital tag. something as simple as that, it could help, because if someone's passed out on the floor, you've got no idea of their medical history. you scan their hand and you've got all their history, all their details. i think something like that is where this technology is going to go. it's brilliant. and this is the size of the chip that hackers have inside them. would you want one? currently today, i've programmed it to send you a text message. tanja does.

she's a tech expert at a university and believes it is important to be a pioneer human with a chip. this is a very simple chip. the danger is not that great. in the future they could be more versatile, more powerful. we don't know what it can hold. that's what we're trying to explore now. there are only 200 in the uk at the moment with a chip. we think nothing of them in cats and dogs. is putting them in people the next logical step? danny savage, bbc news. two more astronauts have been inducted into nasa's hall of fame at a ceremony at the kennedy space center in florida. they are michael foale, who has british and american citizenship, and ellen ochoa from the us. both took part in numerous shuttle launches and spent time on the international space station. tim allman reports. # there's a star man waiting in the sky... #

space — to coin a phrase — the final frontier. mankind's exploration of the cosmos, one of its greatest achievements. and no british—born astronaut has spent more time in orbit than this man, michael foale. now, nasa is honouring him by inducting him into their hall of fame. a moment of pride and some poignance. i returned, yesterday, from the uk, because my mum died three weeks ago. but the good, the happy part of this is she died in cambridge,

and before she died, and she knew i was going to be honoured here. in his 26—year career, he served aboard the international space station and the russian mir platform. he also helped repair the hubble space telescope, spending more than a year in orbit. also being honoured was dr ellen ochoa, the first hispanic woman in space, and now the director of thejohnson space center. i remember that one of the first pieces of advice i got when ijoined the astronaut office was that, ok, there are really only two ways to mess up as an astronaut. number one, failing to follow procedures exactly as written, and number two, following the procedures exactly as written. so the nasa hall of fame grows ever larger. a collection of individuals, but also a team who had the right stuff.

tim allman, bbc news. the first ever hay—fever map of the uk has been published which claims to help sufferers cope, by warning them of pollen hotspots. the new, highly—detailed diagrams show the locations of key plants and trees known to produce pollen that triggers allergies and asthma. it's hoped they will reduce exposure and could even influence where people buy homes. let's find out how the weather is looking with matt taylor. nature has been doing its bit to try and redress the lack of rainfall we have seen so far this spring across parts of the uk. thoroughly wet. over the past few days, but over the days ahead, we will see fewer scenes like this one, captured on saturday afternoon just north of glasgow, and afternoon just north of glasgow, and

a few more of scenes like this one, in cornwall, sunny skies and slightly drier as well. now, drier prospects for many on sunday, we have got high pressure closer by on sunday to the south—east of the country, still low pressure out in the atlantic, it will extend and influence across northern ireland first thing, cloud, patchy rain, spreading into western parts of scotla nd spreading into western parts of scotland after a bright start through the afternoon. other than that, one or two showers browing up across northern ireland, eastern scotla nd across northern ireland, eastern scotland and eastern england, but these will be lighter than we have seen today, and it will feel warmer as well, temperatures for all of us up as well, temperatures for all of us up on what we saw, maybe up to 21 degrees towards the south—east corner. that is how we finish sunday, low pressure to the west of us, more in the way of rain spreading to ireland, west of scotla nd spreading to ireland, west of scotland into monday as the weather fronts scrape by. there will be wetter prospects here. monday is looking pretty decent with some long

spells of sunshine, just a gentle breeze across eastern areas, so after morning mist and fog, feeling pleasant. temperatures will climb even more, they could hit the mid 20s across some parts of the south—east. cooler in eastern scotland, and the cloud and occasional rain in the west of scotla nd occasional rain in the west of scotland and northern ireland will drop the temperature a little bit. low pressure into iceland by tuesday, a ridge of high pressure building in, and winds turning more westerly, so eastern areas will start to feel problem be the warmest overall. in the west, we will see cloud at times around the hills and the coasts, the odd spot of light rain or drizzle cannot be ruled out. for the vast majority, a dry day, temperatures where they should be all a bit above for the time of year. that will extend across the country into wednesday, enhancing the drizzle over the hills, but even with that, most will stay dry. campus conditions in the hebrides, orkney and shetland. most will have good sunny spells breaking through

the cloud, especially to the east of high ground with shelter from the westerly breeze, temperatures once again well above 20 celsius. then high pressure starts to balloon into the second stage of the week, and with high pressure in charge, more of you will be dry. difficult to judge exact amount of cloud, should be good sunny breaks, especially weather sun is strong. if we see a shower, it will be isolated, temperatures climbing into the 20s again, reasonably warm across eastern district after a cool past few weeks. we finish with high pressure in charge across the uk. into next weekend and the start of the following week, high pressure nudges further northwards and eastwards, low pressure could come close by towards the south—west, so the chance of a few showers and storms close to south—western areas, but only a small chance. with that flow from continental europe, we will be dragging ever warmer our way. if you go to next weekend, most plays a dry and warm, temperatures into the 20s, mid 20s in some

places, but into the following week we may see an onshore breeze for north sea coasts, turning things that little bit cooler. take care. hello, this is bbc news with lu kwesa burak. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment. first, the headlines: president trump celebrates the signing of $350 billion worth of contracts between the us and saudi arabia, on day one of his visit to the region. jeremy corbyn insists his party is committed to trident, after members of the shadow cabinet publicly disagree over the issue. the tories defend their aim to cut net migration to "tens of thousands", after it comes under fire from former chancellor george osborne. iran's newly re—elected president, hassan rouhani, says he will use his second term to reach out to the world and work towards a freer society. the wedding has taken place

of pippa middleton, the sister of the duchess of cambridge. prince george was one of the page boys, while his sister charlotte was a bridesmaid.
