the arrests keep coming. three more in the city overnight. locations being searched around manchester include a flat in this block rented by salman abedi several months ago, which may have been a bomb factory. another flat here in central manchester is where he is understood to have put the bomb together in the hours before the attack. his 22 victims have all now been named. most recently, 15—year—old megan hurley from halewood in merseyside. the principal at her school described her death as a huge loss to them all. last night, pink balloons were released in memory of all who lost their lives. and while the threat level remains critical, the message was to go out, enjoy the weekend but remain vigilant. sarah smith, bbc news. catreena renton is in st ann's square in manchester this morning. it isa

it is a place that has become the focus of many tributes. we have watched as many people pass by and stopped for a moment? charlie, that is the thing. there are so many people still coming here. you can see the square filling up. what is incredibly striking is how quiet it is. people coming here to lay tributes and have a look at the m essa 9 es tributes and have a look at the messages written to victims. the overall feeling of sadness, anger and defiance. the chief constable of greater manchester police, ian hopkins, came here yesterday evening primarily to reassure people that he is doing everything he can with police drafted in from around the country to keep people safe this weekend. that is important because there are some big events happening in manchester. there is the great city games, which got under way yesterday. the great manchester run, which is gone to happen on sunday.

but they were unable to reach an agreement on climate change. james reynolds is in sicily for us. gorgeous background. i'm just wondering how much the leaders have had time to enjoy that with so much on the agenda. first, the look at tower and how it can be tackled in the wake of manchester? they have had some time to gaze out over the view. they have been staying on top ofa view. they have been staying on top of a hill in a secure location. clearly, terrorism was on their minds. there was a realisation that when attackers cross borders, intelligence to defeat those attackers also needs to cross borders as well. there was plenty of talk about fighting terrorism together. i think this was a chance for theresa may and donald trump to repair that relationship between the countries which was damaged during the week. indeed. another issue that is being discussed at the summit, that has caused more division, is

the hot topic of climate change? yes, this is fascinating. this is where the g7 doesn't become the g7 and a more. it is the g six against the gi. donald trump said that climate change may be a hoax. he threatened to withdraw the united states from the climate change agreement. the other states say, slowdown, stick with the agreement. i spoke to the un secretary—general who said the agreement would survive evenif who said the agreement would survive even if mrtrump who said the agreement would survive even if mr trump decided to withdraw the united states from the accord. nevertheless, the six leaders will wa nt to nevertheless, the six leaders will want to see the united states stick with it. one of mr trump's advisers has said that his position is softening. thank you. a couple, believed to be in their 80s, have been murdered in county armagh. a relative found their bodies at their home in portadown yesterday afternoon. they are reported to have been stabbed. a a0 year—old man has been arrested. the prime minister will chair a

interact with the world around them. they are often diagnosed between the ages of six and nine. services in south—west london are very stretched command the nhs there is considering a controversial idea. a team that is supposed to carry out 750 annual assessments is actually getting i300 referrals a year. so nhs commissioners can bring five local council areas want to reduce the number of children diagnosed with autism, by focusing specifically on the most severe cases, where children have another illness such as depression. a leading autism charity is deeply concerned. we think it is short—sighted and can cause lots more problems and be more costly in the long run, and will have a massive impact on those families whojust have a massive impact on those families who just wants to find out what they can do to help their children and what support needs to be put in place. the charity has written to the nhs in south—west

london, urging them to withdraw the proposal. the commissioning groups say nothing has been decided yet. and they will talk to local people before deciding the way forward. construction has started on the world's largest telescope, at the top of a 3,000 metre—high mountain in the middle of the chilean desert. when completed, the european extremely large telescope — or elt — will be five times larger than the biggest instruments in use today, and its backers say it has the potential to transform our understanding of the universe. you know i was questioning what would come next? we had the very large telescope. this is the extremely large telescope. the joy of this problem is you ask viewers to help us out and they do. lots of people highlighted that the next name for the telescope is going to be the overwhelmingly large telescope. it will have a diameter of 100 metres. it is big. it is

huge. we will be live at wembley later. mike is there with all of the sport. that ties into the story we are going to do now about some of the security arrangements over the weekend. it's bank holiday weekend, the weather's not bad, and many of us will have been planning to go to one of the many large events which are taking place across the country. but in the wake of the manchester arena attack, concerns about safety are high in a lot of people's minds. 0ne event is radio 1's big weekend. 50,000 music fans are expected at the festival in hull today and tomorrow. newbeat‘s reporter steve holden is there for us this morning. good morning. given us a sense of the scale of the event? this is europe's biggest free ticketed event. 25,000 people expected today. 25,000 people tomorrow. we are in the arena at the moment. and as you

can see, it is completely empty. but this will be completely filled up later, with people seeing the likes of emeli sande and katy perry. later, with people seeing the likes of emeli sande and katy perrylj suppose the point here is, everyone is saying people should do what they are going to do anyway, enjoy the occasions they were going to enjoy with the security and the knowledge that there has been a reassessment about security arrangements? yeah. the message from bbc radio one is it is business as usual. there is an updated security presence. there will be loads more police officers. lots of sniffer dogs. running one coming on site today, there are at least two stages of security. stage one will be at the transport hubs we re one will be at the transport hubs were people arrive on buses and coaches. when they come through the gates of the main entrance, there will be more airport style security there. search number two. the advice

is obvious. don't bring big bags, umbrellas, big coats. not that he will needed at the moment because it is sweltering. we were in the city centre yesterday. the atmosphere is still there. people are excited to come. a lot of people were gutted they were working this weekend, or they were working this weekend, or they didn't get tickets, saying —— saying that, a smattering of people have been put off. they have decided to stay away and watch it on television instead. thank you. 25,000 people there today and 25,000 people there tomorrow. of course, it's a big weekend for sport as well. let's speak now to reg walker, a security consultant who advises on safety at large scale events, and who specialises in training children about being calm when faced with danger. thanks forjoining us. can you tell me your views this week on how we

should, and hope people should be thinking about big events and what to do in terms of security? the main thing is to heed the advice of police etc, who are saying it is safe to go to these events. if police had any doubts they would be recommending the events were cancelled. take comfort in the fact that we have very well—developed procedures in respect of security at events. they have been developed over a number of years. there will bea over a number of years. there will be a great deal more high visibility security and policing out there over the weekend. just listen to the advice from people and professionals on the ground. take sensible precautions, as your previous contributors said. don't take large bags. umbrellas etc. and just enjoy the day. be aware of what is going on around you. just enjoy the weekend. it can be quite intimidating seeing armed soldiers and armed police. how

should people cope with that? just physically it is intimidating to see. it is not something we're used to seeing. also, it is a reminder that we are perhaps endanger. to seeing. also, it is a reminder that we are perhaps endangerlj think, that we are perhaps endanger.” think, conversely, what we are seeing is positive feedback on twitter and other social media networks were the public say they are actually reassured, particularly with heightened search and screening methods being put in place. i think the reassurance aspect of the operations is actually working at this time. you deal with a lot of security companies and training of security companies and training of security personnel, is that correct? we deal with training for security, but we deal with specialised operations that enhance security at arenas and steady. what kind of training and preparation is needed foran ordinary training and preparation is needed for an ordinary person who is doing a job as for an ordinary person who is doing ajob asa for an ordinary person who is doing a job as a security officer? we're not about police or soldiers. 0rdinary people who are told, you are ina

0rdinary people who are told, you are in a heightened situation and you may have to deal with a danger that you haven't had a lifetime of training for. training is an ongoing process throughout the year, particularly since the bataclan. many venues and security companies have announced their security regime, theirtraining. protocols are regularly practised at events and arenas and stadiums. there is a great deal of preparation that goes in there, such as evacuation procedures, familiarity with the various programmes. a massive amount of preparation. 0n the specialist side of things, we have seen an increase in former police and former military personnel coming into the private sector who have additional skill sets, and those skill sets are being honed, particularly in relation to behaviour protection officers, who will be on the outside officers, who will be on the outside of events, who are looking for a

particular patterns of behaviour. the training is quite intense. some of this is developed by universities. we have well researched and well proven data behind it. and i think again you can ta ke co mfo rt behind it. and i think again you can take comfort that all those measures are in place. thank you forjoining us. cameras all over the place this morning. you have probably seen wembley. whether looking good there and in manchester. hull, we saw a moment ago, for the big weekend. we have got some blue skies there as well. that would be perfect weather at that kind of event. there is a bit ofa that kind of event. there is a bit of a breeze, a little bit of cloud, so you will not be sweltering. i hope. darren, what do you think? we have got a lot of heat around in the sunshine, we also have some storms. this is my pick of the morning so far. this is my pick of the morning so fa r. west this is my pick of the morning so far. west sussex, where we have

cloud cloud lightning. those storms have been developing in the south—west in the early hours this morning, and this narrow line, if you like, of rain is still producing some thunderstorms, but not as many. that will head north, possibly into manchester, possibly into hull. we see wet weather developing in northern ireland and a second batch of storms heading from north wales into the north—west of england. north—west scotland should be relatively sunny. temperatures should reach 20 degrees. we are likely to see late storms across western fringes of scotland. this is the heavy rain that could affect manchester and head north across northern england. we have much cooler weather as it turns wet in northern ireland, and a cool breeze and more cloud for wales and the south—west. after today's's storms, plenty of sunshine heading to much of eastern england. 28 degrees is possible. fine at wembley. storms

across northern england to end the day. they will fade away overnight. the rain eases as well. there will bea the rain eases as well. there will be a lot of cloud. quite a warm night. 13 or 1a degrees. tomorrow sta rts night. 13 or 1a degrees. tomorrow starts cloudy if you are up early. it may stay that way for northern ireland and scotland. they will not be as much rain. we import some showers. these could be heavy and foundry. possibly gusty winds and some gales. warmer conditions for england and wales. much cooler for scotland. we will find some outbreaks of rain arriving on bank holiday monday. showery bands of rain moving north through the day, allowing southern part of the uk to become drier. we have still got some heat and warmth in the south—east. gradually over the weekend, we are seeing the heed ebb away. quite a muqqy seeing the heed ebb away. quite a muggy start and a hot start as well. it will feel warm through this weekend when the sun is out. but

there will be some rain around from time to time and still the possibility of thunderstorms. idid possibility of thunderstorms. i did have something for everyone. at least the gardeners will be happy. at least the gardeners will be happy--- at least the gardeners will be happy- -- a at least the gardeners will be happy. —— a bit of something. time for a look at the papers. psychologist cary cooper is here to tell us what caught his eye. we spoke to you in the last hour. it isa we spoke to you in the last hour. it is a saturday after such an extraordinary week and so difficult for so many people. this is your business. a lot of what you do is about how people process things. you are right. what you normally get is the grieving. and after the grieving you get the anger. right? you grieve and when you get anger. you are trying to find out who to blame. then you kind of deal with that. there are two groups of people.

there are two groups of people. there are two groups of people. there are those who have observed it and the people who are in it. they are the ones really grieving and they do need help. and some of them, by the way, kids and parents, will look as if they are coping extremely well. there were' resilient, but maybe three weeks later, two months later, something triggers it. you have to be so careful. and notjust children. this picture has touched so many. isn't this wonderful? explain this to anybody who has not seen it. this is sadik patel and run a black, both from blackburn. she is 93 and he is like 46. they have been friends for the last ten years. they are part of a forum for interfaith

better relationships. they both came to manchester. and she was really upset. i guess part of family must have been involved in the holocaust. she isjewish. have been involved in the holocaust. she is jewish. he have been involved in the holocaust. she isjewish. he is muslim. they comforted each other. look at that. that is the good bit. it is like the homeless guy who was sitting in a doorway, heard the bomb and reading to help people. isn't that wonderful? there are a lot of positives to come out of this. humanity does rear its beautiful head. there are so many different dimensions to this story. one is about the sharing of information, internationally. is that where you are going to take us next? this is rex tillerson, secretary of state. why are like this story is i think it shows us all, they are talking about terrorism, and they are both saying we have to assimilate people better. rex tillerson said that.

obviously trump has told him that america has alienate it britain. they value was very much to the extent that he is actually physically coming here to apologise. it was unprecedented when the police refused for one day to share any information with the united states? absolutely. i think it is you are so valuable to us, that is very rare. i have never heard of that happening before. the americans in the way standing down and saying, we blew it. what we want to do is repair the damage and we are physically coming. we are going to move away from events in manchester for a couple of other stories. i think this is interesting. this is one nyambe do pick up which is in the times. it is workers' fears of automation. this

is great. have we talked about all of the workers being worried about immigrants coming into the country taking our jobs? immigrants coming into the country taking ourjobs? a recent survey said they are not worried about that and a more. what they are worried about more is brexit, will i have a job? but more importantly, automation. ai artificial intelligence. in a way this is good news. those are two things they should focusing on. it is taking it away from all the political stuff on immigration. it is great to see that ordinary workers feel that is quite significant. you picked this story in the daily express. a dying mum fixes a date with simon cowell.” wa nted fixes a date with simon cowell.” wanted to end on a positive note. here is a woman who, for 30 or a0 yea rs, here is a woman who, for 30 or a0 years, has been trying to be a singer. and she decides she is going to give up. her mother had dementia

four world records. depending on weather conditions and air space clearance, fraser will jump from over a0—thousand feet in ontario. thejump is higher than the cruising altitude of a commercial aeroplane. he's attempting to beat the record for the highest speed flown in a wingsuit, currently 23a—miles—per—hour, in order to raise money for an army charity. and on and on and on past would —— explorers and adventurers from the past would appreciate what he was trying to do. black and white footage of intrepid

adventurers exploring some of the most remote parts of the world has been unearthed. at the time the films were made, in the early part of the twentieth century, these places had never been seen by western eyes. this is the first ever view of mount everest from the air. it was shot in 1933 by a group of pilots who risked their lives to help create an aerial map of the mountain. the film is part of the royal geographical society's archive. the film is a staged re—enactment of the first flight over everest and stars the original aviators. don't be full by their acting. this

film won an oscar. —— don't be fooled by their acting. the pictures are incredible. every time icy them i think can you imagine the risks were taking? —— every time icbm. —— every time i see them. joining us now in the studio is professor of historical geography

at the university of nottingham mike heffernan, who is also a fellow of the royal geographical society. this footage has been in the archives for many years and have been available to specialist but not a wider public. but now there's been a wider public. but now there's been a collaboration with the british film institute. we are so familiar and we feel like we know the world now, but it's worth putting this into context. this is in the libyan desert and they just take what appears to be ordinary cars and were driving into completely unknown territory. the main characteristic of this film was the fact that there

we re of this film was the fact that there were new technology allowing travellers to go to parts of the world that had been survey before. the libyan desert exploration was carried out by a famous traveller and explorer who knew a lot of things about the physical environment is there and about sand. this footage is fascinating because this is almost like skyscrapers in yemen. these were films taken by another 1920s—30s explorer. he was a first world war veteran, who took these astonishing arial views of these astonishing arial views of these amazing landscapes which are

of great antiquity, so you got this extraordinary circumstance with technology showing new information from this perspective. when people saw these images, they would have gone into a theatre and would have just been amazed by what they were looking at? these films weren't widely distributed. some were incorporated into other films, there's a flight over the roof of there's a flight over the roof of the world, over everest and that material, those films were incorporated into a film that was shown wildly which was cool wings over everest, 1933 and it won an oscar, for the first time showing

the arial perspective. they wouldn't have known if their plane was going to conquer out, would they? to conk out, would they? these films are important for overwriting of reasons particularly those interested in climate change, the here and now contrast between an environment reviewed in the 1920s and 30s and what it looks like now. so you can see the significant changes over the best part of the century. thanks for coming in and talking to us about those images. the documentary is cool great explorations and it will be shown on

this channel at a:30pm this afternoon. football fa ns football fans are in for a treat because of the cup final at wembley and in scotland as well. a big game as well. my, you look rather diminutive in that rather large stadium. are you there? i'm just having a stroll around. i'm taking in this smell because now we've got the ball on mowers giving the grass and extra trim. taking it in while it's relatively empty and it's got very hot now. but it's hopefully set there. we got arsene wenger, we

don't know what he would do in their future after this. he's going to sit down with the arsenal board here. arsenal have won the cup six times under him. and then you've got content —— conte who if he wind, will be his first cup final. there's a feeling that sport can unite and bring people together, extra security after the attack on manchester earlier this week. over

600 extra armed officers will be at wembley alone including armed police vehicles in the road leading up to wembley. as for the match itself, such a contrast with chelsea winning the premier league title under co nte. the premier league title under conte. and arsene wenger‘s team finishing in fifth place, outside the top four. he insists that today is not about him. i don't care about me, i care about us i don't care about me, i care about us winning the game on saturday and when you win the game, you can accept that in a cup final, you accept that in a cup final, you accept the challenge, you just want to win it. my last dream is to win the game like this was we mustn't

forget that we won the league and don't forget that these guys are a fantastic target and we don't know if we'll have another opportunity to win this trophy. there's a huge game at hampden too, where aberdeen take on celtic in the scottish cup final. celtic are unbeaten in every domestic match this season and are on for the treble having won the scottish premiership and beaten aberdeen in the league cup final. they've exceeded what i would've expected to achieve. myjob is to lead, push and demand. they pushed and pushed and the players have been able to cope with that. to go through a season unbeaten... going unbeaten in all your domestic

games and then winning both your domestic cups. that's our plan, our aim and it's what we will try to do. this team, this season, this celtic team has been very sharp, focused with the work and they don't give much encouragement to their opponents. we need to find a way to put a seed of doubt in their mind. a sell out crowd of 82,000 people will pack into twickenham this afternoon for the showpiece event of rugby union's premiership season — the play—off final. and it's being called potentially the best ever... featuring wasps v exeter who finished first and second. i want us to go and enjoyable stop i wa nt i want us to go and enjoyable stop i want us to get our hands on the trophy and it would be lovely to be home and dry in the last 20 minutes.

but for us, a premiership final is beyond our dreams. that was a couple of seasons ago, but we want to go there, do ourselves justice, and if we get going then there's no reason we shouldn't get our hands on some silverware. it didn't feel like we had achieved everything we wanted to this season, but that said, it's only a feeling, but the feelings need to be backed up by actual actions and if we can inform at a good level for this club them i think we will win. it's also the pro 12 final with dublin taking on month staff. —— munster. england's cricketers take on south africa in the second one—day international this morning in hampshire. england can win the three—day series today and bowler liam plunkett says a victory will set the side up well for the upcoming champions trophy. there is no true at all tougher test with south africa with the players they've got. they are playing in the

ipl, scoring runs and to get a few wind, to win the series against them puts you in a great place for icc. three tough games, there is no better platform. manchester city centre held its first major sporting event since the terrorist attack on monday as the great city games took place. there was a minute's silence before the event started to remember the 22 people who lost their lives. in the pole vault, britain's holly bradshaw set a new national outdoor record of a.80 metres. she later posted on social media — what a day! manchester, that was for you! also taking part was the london 2012 olympic long jump champion greg rutherford.

he won his event in front of a large crowd at albert square, with a season's best 8.18 metres in his finaljump. joining me now with pat nevin. how will antonio conte feel when he comes out for the first time?” will antonio conte feel when he comes out for the first time? i have to tell you that the physical part will hit you today say you have been walking about here and you'll see yourself what it's like. there's no wind it boiling here. it must have been 100 degrees and then when all

the fans are in that adds to it. the substitutions will be important today and when you look at what antonio conte has done, that's another advantage he has. it's not just about the final, it's the run—up. we had this goal you scored in 1993. tranmere versus oldham, a diving header! every club you play for, you remember. tranmere was good and the bbc did a big deal about us in that little run. ipswich beat us in the end. eventually, it's the cup, the final, the winners and that is who you care about. i'm trying to

relax as if i'm in the back garden, but the mowers are going past here! it's the nominal. think about the games that have gone on here. the pitch is absolutely beautiful as well. no excuses for the players. a number of conversations for the teams, if you are antonio conte, you've got this wonderful choice between fabregas and matty— matic so perhaps that will be a big cool for him. so perhaps that will be a big call for him.

arsenalfans arsenal fans assay that arsene wenger, if he wind, he's likely he can go because he wants to go out on a high. —— if he wind. —— if he wins. when they played bayern lost 5—1 thenit when they played bayern lost 5—1 then it looked like the death of a team, but then they were a point of getting into the top four in so it shows you define margins at this level. had he got into the top four and one today, it it would be seen asa and one today, it it would be seen as a great season. tiny margins. can they surprise chelsea? of course they

can. it will be a makeshift defence that these are no lands to the slaughter, arsenal, today. there's no doubt that chelsea are favourites, because they are playing well, but remember since arsenal have changed from a 3—a— three, it has worked... they've stuck to it. what about aberdeen? given this season and their history, i think celtic will win. great form, great team. let's remind you of your cup final appearance with everton. don't miss any of the build—up. the fa cup show will be at tpm, everything

kicking off at 5:30pm, by which time i hope to be home in the garden. lovely to see you this morning, mike. it's 950 am. our reminder of the main stories. police made three more arrests overnight as the investigation into monday's terror attack in manchester increases. security increases over the bank holiday weekend and armed police are deployed to a number of high—profile events. we saw the sun shining brightly and getting pretty warm at wembley this morning. darren has the weekend picture across the rest of the uk this weekend. good morning. the weather will still be good by the time mike gets into his garden! blue skies, sunshine in

cambridgeshire and this could be one of the warmest part of the country. we are seeing a very humid, mucky and hot start to the weekend. it will feel warm in the sunshine. rain not far—away. but as we've seen, this line of rain with more on the way. this will push northwards, fade away and then there will be a second batch heading into north—west england. at the same time it's turning wet across northern england. but for the north—east, the sunshine tea m but for the north—east, the sunshine team shining and we are looking at temperatures close to 30 celsius and around the moray firth ‘s. there could be some gusty wind, some cool, wet weather developing in northern ireland. as we had further east

across southern england, it will be warm in the sunshine. storms further north, leading northern england —— leaving northern england, the rain easing off. temperatures 13—1adc. into tomorrow it will start off quite cloudy, there's a chance to northern ireland will hang on to the cloud and we could see some late show was arriving from the south west. hit and miss but the show was worked their way northwards, compared to today, some showery bursts of rain working their way northwards and things becoming less bright. that's it from me. darren,

we're hearing from mike at wembley. he's saying he wants a nice cool drink, what are your plans for this afternoon? i and going for a walk, i am told. enjoy it! see you. the charlatans are a band that are no strangers to adversity. they've tragically lost two members over the years, but they're still together. and now they're back with a new album which is being described — in one review — as their best for two decades. they're a band with strong links to manchester, and tonight they're performing at the first large gig to be played in the city since the atrocities of monday evening. singer tim burgess and guitarist mark collins are with us now. let's talk about your great affinity for this part of the world and what happened and how it has shocked everyone. what have you been up to,

because you have been talking to people as the album has been released this week. i'm obviously devastated, it is quite unbelievable how this has happened. how people reacted to you as you've been promoting the album? we were doing a few small shows around the oldham street area of the northern quarter, and there were a lot of people, a sense of unity really, and it was quite charged, the atmosphere, that there was a great will, and we felt there was a great will, and we felt the love. it's often hard to find the words to express what you think, but for you

guys, express what you think, but for you guys, the statement you are making is 3—d performance you are going to give, you will be doing a first music gig since the terrorist attack on monday, and that is a statement in itself, isn't it? i think it is. people want to try to continue as normally as possible, to try and get out and see music and get out and be social again. the thought process for you, we carry on as planned? that something you talk about, get together and talk that through? the show tonight has been planned for months and months and there was discussion between the promoter and the police whether to have it, but we wa nted the police whether to have it, but we wanted to do it and all the bands

included wanted to do it and i think it is the right thing to do. i'm sure the atmosphere will feel quite emotional... the gig at oldham street had been planned for months and the police were there, and the emotion is quite charged and it starts off quite gentle and then all ofa starts off quite gentle and then all of a sudden, something takes over, that you are not expecting. it's about people being together really. we think cancelling it would be the wrong message, as well. the thing you were talking about people loving what they love a bit more, doing the thing they are doing a bit more, you have this new album out. we are going to have a little look at it. it's called plastic machinery.
