hello. this is bbc news. the headlines: spain's king and queen are in attendance at a special mass in barcelona to honour those killed in the catalonia attacks. and the manhunt continues for the suspect who police believe drove the van on las ramblas, who escaped the scene on foot. a british paramedic who was stabbed four times in the finland terror attack insists he's no hero. hassan zubier was attacked while trying to save a woman's life. iraqi forces have begun an offensive to retake tal afar, the last major city in the country to be held by so—called islamic state. coming up in a few minutes, our sunday morning edition of the papers. this morning's reviewers are ben chi, economics and business editor of the independent and the education editor of the sunday times, sian griffiths. before the papers, sport, and for a full round up from the bbc sport centre, here's jessica. england's cricketers took 19 wickets in a day

to beat west indies by a record margin: an innings and 209 runs in the first test at edgbaston. james anderson took three wickets for 3h runs in the visitors‘ first innings as england bowled the west indies out for 168 and forced them to follow on. anderson is england's all time leading wicket taker, but his team mate stuart broad is just one place behind him now in the rankings, after taking three wickets in west indies‘ second innings. west indies crumbled to 137 all out and the game was over in just three days. broad's spell means he's moved above sir ian botham's tally of 383 test wickets, which he describes as a special day. he's obviously been a hero of mine, watching him bowl and play. the

influence he has had on me, his performance against australia was inspirational. it is great to chat to him now. you can see how happily is for me. it's a special day and a wonderful team performance. but it was lovely to get that three wicket speu was lovely to get that three wicket spell towards the end of the day to see us spell towards the end of the day to see us home. arsenal manager arsene wenger has expressed his disappointment with the referee after his side's 1—0 loss at stoke. after dominating the first half, arsenal were undone by stoke after the match, wenger complained that arsenal had been denied a goal and a first—half penalty. it's a difficult defeat to swallow, because i think that with the chances we had, we should have won the game comfortably. of course, it is not welcome for us. on top of that, we were unlucky because i

think we scored a regular goal which was given offside when it was not offside. it was the kind of game where you couldn't afford to make a defensive mistake. we couldn't find an opening. in yesterday's other premier league games, manchester united fans celebrated a 4—0 win for the second week running, romelu lukaku among the scorers against swansea. elsewhere, watford won 2—0 at bournemouth. west brom beat burnley. and brighton lost 2—0 again, this time to leicester. newly promoted sides huddersfield and newcastle play later this afternoon. newcastle will be hoping to pick up their first points of the season, while for huddersfield, who impressed in their win over crystal palace last week, it will be their first home game in the top flight for 45 years. the good thing is that we have a chance. as i said before, you play your first chance. as i said before, you play yourfirst premier

chance. as i said before, you play your first premier league game at home and we have the feeling that we have a chance to be successful against newcastle. this is the only thing you want, the feeling that you have a chance. but we have to be our best on sunday. when you play a top side, you know it will be difficult to get a result. but in this case, because it will be difficult to get a result. but in this case, because it's at the beginning, expectations are very high, so it will be tough, for sure. how difficult? i will tell you in six months whether it was the most difficult or not. also today, tottenham will host chelsea for their first premier league home game at their temporary stadium, wembley. spurs manager mauricio pochettino says he's looking forward to playing the champions. to play against chelsea, they were the last premier league champions. it is always massive for us. i respect chelsea. to try to show that

you are better than them is always a challenge. in the scottish premiership, the champions celtic‘s 2—0 win at kilmarnock takes their unbeaten domestic run to an amazing 52 games. stjohnstone and aberdeen remain hot on celtic‘s heels at the top — they also have a perfect league record, with three wins from three. rangers could only draw 0—0 at home with hearts. it might only be august, but we've already had one round of fa cup qualifying games — among them, south shields beat bridlington town 3—1. former south african international midfielder matty pattinson scored the pick of the goals in the second half. so the fa cup dream is still alive for south shields and by my count, just 11 matches to make the final at wembley! the united states needsjust three and a half points to retain the solheim cup, after day two in iowa. they extended their lead over team europe to ten and a half,

from five and a half. it's the first time since 1998 that the us has led going into the final day of singles matches. ronnie o'sullivan has blasted his way into the semi—finals of the china championship. the rocket thrashed graeme dott by 5—0 in their quarter—final. dott accumulated just 21 points in the five frames. the world's current top six have already been knocked out of the tournament. great britain are in the team gold medal position going into the final day of the european eventing championships in poland. nicola wilson is the best placed briton for an individual medal following the cross country; she's fourth. the championships finish today with show—jumping. some sad news this morning — all blacks legend colin meads has died after a year—long battle with cancer. he was 81. colin was named new zealand's best rugby player of the 20th century. nicknamed pinetree, he played 133 times for his country,

including 55 tests. that's all the sport. now on bbc news, here's the papers. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are ben chi, economics and business editor of the independent and the education editor of the sunday times, sian griffiths. let's have a look at the front pages first. the sunday times leads with its story that the queen won't stand down for prince charles. the front page is dominated by an image of her majesty in pink. the daily mail says hope is fading for the seven—year—old boy missing following the attack in barcelona. the daily express

has the same story. it says the boy's injured british mother is desperately searching for her son. the telegraph also covers the barcelona attack, but focuses on plans to crack down on car and van rentals in its aftermath. and the observer reports that leading experts on eu law have cast "serious doubt" on theresa may's brexit strategy. so let's begin. let's start with the telegraph. the investigation is continuing into how this barcelona cell was able to operate for a whole year undetected. it is looking at its own incompetence in the way it couldn't rent a larger van and do more damage, shone. there is a very interesting story in the sunday telegraph, which in the wake of the things that have happened in barcelona, i think britain is now

looking at whether we can crack down on carand van looking at whether we can crack down on car and van rentals. of course, hired vehicles have been used in several of these attacks like london bridge and finsbury park mosque. so the idea is that information handed over to rental companies, including names and addresses could be cross checked against criminal watchlists quickly. and then the car could be tracked if it is rented out, or even stopped from being hired out to potential terrorists. but one of the concerns is not to infringe upon daily life, because people still need to rent larger trucks for com pletely need to rent larger trucks for completely valid purposes. that is the trade—off that the public have to make. as you say, it will mean that if you hire a van, if they implement the suggested scheme, it will mean a lot more red tape and delays. but my guess is that most

people would be willing to make that trade—off if it meant even the small chance of a terrorist being able to get hold of an articulated van or lorry and causing the kind of carnage we saw in barcelona, if there is a minimal chance of doing it, i suspect most people would be happy to do it. the other issue which is not raised here is that barriers in public places like las ramblas and westminster, i suspect we will see more of them. that is simplerand quickerto we will see more of them. that is simpler and quicker to implement than these bureaucratic obstacles. we are increasingly seeing those barriers, but in some areas, it is physically impossible to get them in. you can't put barriers everywhere. you never know whether terrorists are going to strike. there are barriers now across london bridge. i over it every day to work and the barriers are there so that ca i’s and the barriers are there so that cars can't mow down pedestrians. but you can't put them right across london, or right across our capital

cities. and that doesn't help with the attacks in finland, which was a knife attack. people use common objects in horrific ways. the security services have to respond to a threat the way they see it. at the moment, the terrorists are getting vans, so they have to respond to that, but as you say, things can evolve. there are other ways to attack innocent people. so it is a terrible challenge. the mail on sunday focuses on this lost boy, the seven—year—old british boy. we still don't know what has happened to him. but my goodness, i have a nine—year old and i how difficult it is. if he is missing, his parents are absolutely distraught and his mother is very ill. such a sad photograph. this boy is in his football shirt. it is always the details that grab

your heartstrings. he loves to dance. his mother, who was also injured and ill in hospital, the dad flying over from australia. injured and ill in hospital, the dad flying overfrom australia. what that family must be going through. when they pick up on these stories of the victims, it's heartbreaking. as sian mentioned, the father had a 22 hour flight from australia, because his wife and son were in barcelona for a family wedding. imagine what it must be like not knowing what had happened to your sofi knowing what had happened to your son for all of that time. just heartbreaking detail. this is what the sunday papers are good at. they have found the stories of the people who have been affected. stories of heroism are emerging as well as stories of tragedy. the mail on sunday has a british tourist who risked his own safety. he stayed with a badly injured boy on las ramblas, even though he was told to

move away, because the little boy reminded him of his son. the quotes are so reminded him of his son. the quotes are so moving. he said, that was somebody‘s child. it could have been my child. you immediately think, there but for the grace of god go i. so many of us have been to las ramblas. we have all been to these places, and it is devastating when we see something like this. which is precisely why the terrorists choose these targets. they know the maximum way to multiply the shock is to choose places we have all been to or that we might go to. they want to terrorise, so it is deliberate. onto the observer, where we are back focusing on brexit. it doesn't take long to return to brexit. doubts are being cast on theresa may's brexit red line. what are they getting at?

this is pauljenkins, the former head of the government's legal services division. he is pouring cold water on theresa may's brexit strategy. he said the policy on the little indications of brexit was foolish and if the uk once close links with the single market, it will have to observe eu law in all but name. of course, it is only two weeks until david davis enters a crucial phase of talks on the exit plan. so still chaos and confusion around our brexit strategy, with a lot of people knocking it. that has been such an issue, the chaos and lack of clarity which is getting people very concerned. we had two position papers last week, one on the customs union and one on the northern ireland border. and i read them closely because i have to write about them. and i was astonished by

the lack of detail. the customs paper was 16 pages long, the ireland one was 30 pages long. these are incredibly difficult challenges they are grappling with, and to give so little to people on the eu side or even the journalists or analysts to work on seems to be a terrible mistake, because it underlines how much they either haven't thought about them, or how much they are keeping back about what they are going to try and implement. do you think they don't know, or are they afraid to share it? david davis said la st afraid to share it? david davis said last week that it reflects creative ambiguity. that was the phrase he used. it is a nice sounding phrase, but i think it is used to cover the fa ct but i think it is used to cover the fact that they don't know how to confront these challenges. they have grappled with the detail. this is the detail which is brought out in the detail which is brought out in the observer story. if you are going

to have a temporary interim customs union with the eu which is like the one we have at the moment, someone has to oversee it. a legal body has to oversee it. so who is that going to oversee it. so who is that going to be? to oversee it. so who is that going to be ? the to oversee it. so who is that going to be? the natural thing is the ecj, but theresa may said we will not be subject to the supervision of the ecj after 2019. so how can the customs union proposal work? this is what sir paul jenkins customs union proposal work? this is what sir pauljenkins is saying. to make the customs union bit work for the interim, you have to have ecj supervision. if not that, there will have to be some kind of fudge where the eu court and the uk courts cooperate. it is by no means clear that the eu side will agree to that. so this will all come into focus in the coming days. sian, are you sensing frustration from the public that this is unravelling? absolutely. i cover education for the sunday times, and universities

are absolutely panicking because they have so many eu students and eu staff. they are so reliant on eu research funding, and they don't know what will happen in two years' time. trying to make plans for the future is very difficult. we are going to stay with the observer. this is a story that the telegraph is also covering. it is another twitter spat. stephen hawking, the eminent scientist and cosmologist, gave an opinion article to the guardian on friday, raising alarm about privatisation of the health service and the general direction of health under the conservatives. and as you say, there was a pushback on twitter, the medium by which have an ministers now communicate with the people, it seems, byjeremy hunt, the health secretary, yesterday. but

he also wrote a column for the sunday telegraph where he went into more detail than he was allowed to with the 150 character limit on twitter, talking about why sir stephen hawking was wrong to accuse the tories tried to privatise the nhs and pushing a pernicious falsehood. and also hitting back at the accusation stephen hawking made againstjeremy the accusation stephen hawking made against jeremy hunt, that the accusation stephen hawking made againstjeremy hunt, that he was cherry picking data when he argued that it cherry picking data when he argued thatitis cherry picking data when he argued that it is less safe to be in a hospital on weekends, which is one of the big disputes related to the junior doctors' strike. so quite a serious butting of heads between the two of them. as to who comes out on top, personally i think sir stephen hawking overegged it when he said they are privatising the nhs. you can't really find that in the data, but he is right to recuse jeremy hunt of cherry picking data over the weekend effect. all the studies i have read suggest that the data is simply not there to make the kind of claimsjeremy simply not there to make the kind of

claims jeremy hunt was simply not there to make the kind of claimsjeremy hunt was making. simply not there to make the kind of claims jeremy hunt was making. but when you have someone like stephen hawking coming into an argument like this, you have to think there might bea this, you have to think there might be a bit ofa this, you have to think there might be a bit of a problem or a breakdown in pr. absolutely. it is a public relations disaster. personally, i thinkjeremy hunt going on twitter and attacking stephen hawking is ludicrous. that is not the way we expect ministers to behave. i don't wa nt expect ministers to behave. i don't want serious policy discussions played out on twitter with use of the number two instead of the word! now social media users have piled in and we have doctors and scientists mocking jeremy hunt on twitter for taking on the world's most famous scientist. well, they think it is a more direct way to communicate. at the last general election, labour did so well because of social media.

so ministers think, we have to get out so ministers think, we have to get our message out there. we have seen how donald trump uses twitter, which is not a good example in my view. but it is a direct way of communicating, so maybe they are making the trade—off that although people will ridicule him, it is a direct way of communicating. another way of communicating now. the sunday times said the queen will not stand down for prince charles. no real surprise there. well, there has been a lot of talk that she might. she is very elderly and very wonderful, so she might want to notjust stop back from duties, but have a regency arrangement where prince charles ta kes arrangement where prince charles takes over. this is a story from our royal correspondent, making clear that nobody is planning for a regency, neither buckingham palace nor clarence house, and that this

pledge the queen made on her 21st birthday, i declare that my whole life, long or short, shall be devoted to your service, she intends to completely honour that, even up to completely honour that, even up to her 95th birthday. she will be delegating more duties to prince william and charles and so on. we are seeing the younger royals taking up are seeing the younger royals taking up more of an active role. and members of the public seem to like that. but in terms of the queen standing down, that is difficult to fathom. with brexit, a big constitutional moment for the uk, and the issues around charles and camilla, ican and the issues around charles and camilla, i can imagine that the last thing people want would be for this massively respected sovereign to

invoke the 1937 regency act and step back. it isjust not the right time for it. providing her health is up to it and she has no intention to do it, i expect a lot of ministers and the prime minister will be breathing a sigh of relief over that. the last thing they need is less stability. let's finish with the sunday telegraph, the child genius. sian, how different is this? i can't imaginea how different is this? i can't imagine a child like this. it is incredible. it was extraordinary to watch little rahul. he was amazing. he is like a little 15—year—old in a child's body! he was so composed. he was so child's body! he was so composed. he was so clever. he memorised things so was so clever. he memorised things so well. of course, the debate about child genius, every time it is on is, is it the children who want to

ta ke is, is it the children who want to take part or is it pushy parents? and watching rahul‘s family, his dad was so and watching rahul‘s family, his dad was so behind him. rahul lifted the trophy at the end and his dad lifted away from him! but you had the sense that this was a family completely behind this child more willing him on, but not in a negative way. and my son, who was watching with me, said, the family that completes together wins together! we always ask if it is good for these children to be put in the spotlight in this way, but life is pressure and competition. if you go to the far east and you see the tiger parents, these are the children that our children will be competing against in the global economy. we have to stop being so wishy—washy. i loved it and stop being so wishy—washy. i loved itandi stop being so wishy—washy. i loved it and i loved rahul and his pa rents. it and i loved rahul and his parents. the family were great characters. i haven't watched it,

but i read the interview and i came away with from it with a jaded eye, thinking they must be punishing him. but i read the interview and they sounded like the nicest possible family, not pushy, but encouraging and pretty modest. humble background, they are not particularly well off. and i really wa nt particularly well off. and i really want to them just from reading the article, so maybe i should watch it. but i can't imagine any child of that age sitting down and getting on with this level of work. there must be some pushing from the parents. they definitely encourage them to do it, but with the difficulty of the questions, the freezing point of water in degrees kelvin, i don't know! that's it for the papers. just a reminder — we take a look at tomorrow's front pages every evening at 10.40 here on bbc news. coming up on bbc one after this programme is sunday morning live.

with the details, we say good morning to sean fletcher. coming up on sunday morning live, a i’ow coming up on sunday morning live, a row eru pts coming up on sunday morning live, a row erupts about the language used to describe grooming gangs. has our response being racist or are we being too politically correct? equality campaigners say alljobs should be advertised for flexible working. were that fixed the gender pay gap? and as artificial intelligence advances, will robots ta ke intelligence advances, will robots take our place? join us at ten. here is matt taylor for the weather forecast now. plenty of sunshine around the uk at the moment, but our weather will undergo a change in the next 36 hours, all due to what was a former hurricane. don't get too concerned. this was hurricane gert a few days ago to the east of the united states. it stayed in open water, and it weakened and got

consumed by areas of cloud pushing across the north atlantic. it will bring humid airup across the north atlantic. it will bring humid air up from the mid—atlantic bring humid air up from the mid—atla ntic to bring humid air up from the mid—atlantic to us. after a cool start to sunday, things will turn more humid for many over the next few days. it is also introducing cloud across many south—western areas. turning drizzly towards the south—west. away from that, a few isolated showers. the majority have sunshine. more cloud will build up during the day, but most have sunny spells. for the channel islands and wales, things will look greyer and greyer. staying dry till the end of the afternoon for south—east england and the midlands. a fine day for east anglia and northern england. some rain in northern ireland by this afternoon. scotland will have a few isolated showers, but mostly sunny spells. for those heading off to watch the start of the clip around the world race from liverpool, we will see some breaks

in the cloud overhead, with a light winds. they could do with something a bit stronger. the strongest winds tonight will be across the south, rain becoming extensive across wales, the midlands and southern england and turning water into the south—west and northern ireland as well. lots of cloud and mistiness around towards the south—west. for the north of england and scotland, good sunny spells to start monday. a cool start here. most places will be dry. cloudy holes swear. rain and drizzle towards the south—east which will ease, but heavy rain in northern ireland. the humid air pushes further northwards. probably a bit warmer than shown on the chart if any cloud breaks. but you will stay dry into the start of tuesday. outbreaks of rain in scotland and northern ireland. further south,

outbreaks of rain in scotland and northern ireland. furthersouth, dry and sunny spells and very humid too. that's all from me. there's continuing coverage on all the top stories on the bbc news channel. from us now, goodbye. this is bbc news. the headlines at ten. singing. spain's king and queen are in attendance at a special mass in barcelona to honour those killed in the catalonia attacks. police say they are closing in on the suspected driver of the van that rammed into pedestrians on las ramblas, who escaped the scene on foot. a british paramedic stabbed four times in the finland terror attack insists he's no hero. hassan zubier was attacked while trying to save a women's life. i'm just a human being who cares about other human beings. maybe it is silly, but that's just me. i would do it again.

iraqi forces have begun an offensive to retake tal afar, the last major city in the country to be held by so—called islamic state. fraudsters aiming to scam people out their pension could soon face
