and this afternoon, william and harry came to view the tributes. they took their time, they looked, and they read. and they laughed at some of the photographs showing them as small children with their mother. it was impossible not to be reminded of how it was 20 years ago when, aged 15 and 12, on their return to london, they'd come out, still numb and bewildered, to meet the people who'd gathered there and to see for themselves the many thousands of bouquets which had been left. diana's boys are both in their 30s now. william's settled and about to begin full—time royal duty. he was accompanied by catherine this afternoon to view a memorial garden to diana. and harry, not quite so settled yet, but not far off, one suspects. and both at this anniversary, one must assume, reassured by the enduring regard people feel for their mother. she gave us so much. we were so privileged to have her. she meant so much to so many people. she touched everybody and it shows by how many people are here today. william and harry took some

of the flowers people had brought and placed them at the palace gates, replaying some of the moments from two decades ago and acknowledging the desire that many still have to hold onto diana's memory. today, briefly, they've put on their public, princely faces, to view some of the tributes. tomorrow though, william and harry will remain in private, remembering the mother they lost in such tragic circumstances, 20 years ago. nicolas witchell, bbc news, at kensington palace. here's what's coming up on newsnight, on bbc two, with evan davies. tonight, a case of a white christian five—year—old girl put into the foster care of a muslim family has made headlines in recent days. these cases can be complex, but is something wrong in the world of fostering? does culture or religious background even matter? join me now on bbc two. here on bbc one it's time for the news where you are.

good night. good evening. the chair of an independent inquiry into building regulations — prompted by the grenfell fire — has told bbc london hello and welcome to sportsday. i'm hugh woozencroft. here are our main headlines this evening: off to the reds — liverpool agree a £40 million deal to sign alex oxlade—chamberlain from arsenal. seeing red! an angry and frustrated nick kyrios is dumped out in the first round of the us open. and staying in red —

chris froome holds on to the leader's jersey at the vuelta a espana, and increases his lead in the process. good evening. we're just over a day away from the end of football's summer transfer window and clubs are trying to wrap up some late deals. alex oxlade chamberlain looks set for a move to merseyside after liverpool agreed a fee of a0 million pounds with arsenal. his medical will take place tomorrow before he flies out to malta with his england team—mates. our sport reporter david ornstein has more. alex oxlade—chamberlain had actually been the subject of an agreed deal between arsenal and chelsea. £40

million was the fee that was settled on but he rejected it, being of the understanding that he would leave arsenal, where he plays right wingback, to play the same position at chelsea, and he said, i don't wa nt to at chelsea, and he said, i don't want to do that, i want to join liverpool, who won his boyhood club. at the time, they hadn't put an offer in for him. —— who were his boyhood club. well, there are plenty more moves on the horizon. alexis sanchez is another player with just a year left on his deal at the emirates stadium. arsenal have rejected a 50 million pounds bid from manchester city. sanchez is keen to link up with his former boss pep guardiola at the etihad. now, it hasn't been the best transfer window for ross barkley... he hasn't played yet due to injury and now his club everton have turned down a 25 million pounds bid from premier league champions chelsea. despite several high profile signings, everton are holding out for closer to 50 million pounds for the england player. so plenty of deals to be concluded — one that is done is a season long loan for poland international gregor krychowiak — he's joined west bromich albion

from paris saint germain. krychowiak was formerly with sevilla in spain where he won the europa league twice. he becomes the club's seventh signing of the season — and the second today, with arsenal defender kieran gibbs also moving to the hawthorns. but the question is, a few games into the season with international matches on the way, should we still be discussing potential moves? several of europe's top coaches met in switzerland today, along with the likes of sir alex ferguson — they feel there should be a change. the recommendation is to close the window before the season starts, so that everyone knows the players they have got and don't wait until they see what the first results are going to be like. and also, when they do, they can make other clubs poorer who maybe start the season not so good

either, so it would be a good idea to shorten the window and give eve ryo ne to shorten the window and give everyone the same opportunity to sign players before the season starts. now away from football, there could also be changes coming in tennis. david haggarty the president of the international tennis fderation has voiced concerns over players‘ health — saying there needs to be "robust conversations" about their calendar. this comes as five top players — including three former champions — missed this year's us open with injuries. i think the leaders we have today in the sport are very open to this conversation. they are concerned about the health of the players but also the success of tennis. i think that next week when we have the stakeholder meetings, i know that this is on the docket to be discussed, and i'm sure we will have some robust conversations. again, i think the itf will play a role, as will all seven governing bodies‘ stakeholders. well, maybe an example of what haggerty was talking about came as nick kyrios injured his shoulder in his first

round match against fellow australian john millman. it didn't seem to hamper him though when he smashed his racket beyond repair after losing the third set. the end was quick in coming as a deflated kyrios lost the fourth set 6—1 and with it, the match. britain's aljaz bedene is out — beaten in straight sets by the russian andrey rublev. and maria sharapova is a set down in her second round match against hungary's timea babos — the russian remember won an emotional match against simona halep in the first round on herfirst grand slam appearance since returning from her doping suspension this year. well, player welfare is a key discussion across sport. now, a pitch—side saliva test for concussion could be possible in the next five years, if a new study proves successful. throughout this season, players in rugby union's premiership and championship will provide samples, to be analysed by the university of birmingham. they're looking for tell—tale signs

within cells which are released when the body suffers trauma. 0ur reporter patrick gearey‘s been to see how it works. welcome to the twickenham treatment room, a place that has seen more than its fair share of concussions over the years, but this season, for the first big fixture help here, players will have their saliva taken if they suffer a head injury, as pa rt if they suffer a head injury, as part of a big new study into concussion. professor tony belli is here to tell us about it. —— belli. the player will be removed for assessment, as they are now, and we all know they have two minutes for that assessment. during any match, they will also be doing an additional test, which is straightforward. they would be asked

to collect about two millilitres of saliva and put it in this bottle, which looks standard but is actually a sophisticated piece of equipment. that bottle is collected and analysed in a laboratory at the university of birmingham. and the endgame is to have a hand—held device that would tell us instantly whether a player has been concussed? absolutely. the ultimate goal is to have a portable pitch— side device, because it is all very well and good to have a biomarker that can indicate a concussion but still requires a lab to analyse it over several hours, but we want a portable device that can be used by doctors in a professional game, or potential a parent if this works as well as we hope. potentially, this isa well as we hope. potentially, this is a prototype of a device that we

hope is going to be able to diagnose concussion. so, they player would be providing just a drop of saliva, and the strip is inserted into a reader, and within a couple of minutes, the reader should be able to give you the diagnosis of concussion, either confirm that it has occurred, and a player can be removed, or disprove it, so the player can safely returned to the game. fascinating stuff. the trial will take place through all premiership and championship games this season. the results could be game changing. ahead of england's deciding test with west indies the ecb has announced that bowling coach 0ttis gibson is to quit his position tojoin cricket south africa as head coach. gibson will leave at the end of the current test series. england, meanwhile, have named the same 13 players for next week's deciding test at lord's. and a day after their dramatic second test win against england, more good news for the west indies as their star opening batsman chris gayle has tonight told

bbc radio 5live's ‘tuffers and vaughan show‘ that he wants to come back to test match cricket. gayle says he has an arrangement with the west indies cricket board to return to the test team ‘when he wants.‘ he has concentrated on t20 and 50—overs cricket in recent years. i don‘t want to retire just like that from test cricket. if it doesn‘t happen, so be it. but yes, i‘m looking forward to it. and you can hear more from chris gayle on the tuffers and vaughan podcast on the 5live website or your usual provider. chris froome has taken a big step to winning the vuelta a espana title as he opened up a one—minute, i9—second lead on the field after today‘s stage ii.

froome increased his overnight 36 second lead as he finished second to colombia‘s miguel angel lopez in calar alto. with second placed esteban chaves losing over two minutes today, froome now leads vincenzo nibali by 79 seconds, with chaves in third. froome is aiming to become the first rider to win the tour de france and vuelta in the same year since frenchman bernard inot in 1978. britain has won their first world judo championship medal for seven years as nekoda davis took bronze in the 57 kilogram category in budapest this afternoon. davis was leading the reperchage final against panama‘s miriam roper but the win was secured when her opponent fell awkwardly and damaged her neck. euan burton won britain‘s last world medal in tokyo in 2010. that‘s all from sportsday. in 24 hours from now, there‘lljust be minutes left of the summer transfer window — it promises to be a hectic day. coming up in a moment, the papers. hello, and welcome to our look ahead

to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the journalist james rampton, and annabelle dickson, political correspondent at politico europe. tomorrow‘s front pages, starting with: the telegraph harvey two stories which dominate the front pages as a whole, marking the 20th anniversary of the death of princess diana, and also reporting on theresa may‘s intention to stay in power to fight the next general election. the ft say there could be an early

leadership contest. many mps expected her to step down following the brexit negotiation. the guardian leads with the prime minister‘s interview also, in which she insisted she was not a quitter. the daily mail has: i will fight the next election. it could mean she remains prime ministerfor next election. it could mean she remains prime minister for the next election. it could mean she remains prime ministerfor the next ten years, if you do the maths. then the times says the prime minister wa nts to the times says the prime minister wants to stay on to focus on social justice as well as brexit. and the metro dedicate the front page to the tributes to diana at kensington palace. in the sun, they give a full page to princess diana, saying she is still the people‘s princess. let‘s start with the daily telegraph. i‘m no quitter, says made. it‘s not going to be 2019,

after brexit, that she goes, it could be longer. that's right. this came about when she was on tour. she has the lobby packed with her in japan, and after the reports at the weekend in the sunday mirror that she might have gone by the 30th of august 2019, she was asked about this and hit back, saying, no, i‘m no quitter. i‘m going to stay and i wa nt to no quitter. i‘m going to stay and i want to fight the next election, much to everyone‘s surprise. after the election, there was this understanding almost that she was the caretaker leader and she would see brexit through and then kind of after she had dealt with brexit and had the stability, then the conservatives could start having a bloody leadership battle ahead of the next election. i was talking to sources today after we got wind of
