scotla nd going to be clear and cold across scotland and northern ireland. enough for a faster game. temperatures touch and go across north—western parts of england and wales, mostly above freezing will stop sunday as the drier day of the weekend. original high pressure building, fewer showers, more sunshine for most of us. temperatures will respond. look at this coming into the south later in the day. because we have the north—easterly wind ahead of this band of rain it will feel quite chilly and as i hinted some pretty nasty weather on the way of the beginning of next week. wet and windy, near gale forced winds and the potential for sleet and snow over the downs, not likely to settle. not good for the of april. that's all from the bbc news at one. here is the latest sports news.

1:39 pm
jong—un back to the north. having set foot at one stage in the south for the first time, the first north korean leader since the korean war, in fact. 65 years ago, to set foot in these out. and he was shown after the summit, that, saying his goodbyes, returning across the border and saying goodbye to his hosts. the demilitarised zone... there have been very positive worldwide reaction to the summit. and the two men, the leaders of both and gas —— north and south korea promisingly completed denuclearise is on of the korean peninsula. of course, all of this against the back drop of nuclear test by the north, growing fears that the north is acquiring nuclear weapons
1:40 pm
capability. that is the waving hand of kim jong—un. as capability. that is the waving hand of kimjong—un. as he left the border area and headed back to the north with the promised that there will be a peace treaty signed later this year. extraordinary scenes, that. that's talk more about the british economy. as you've been hearing the british economy grew at its slowest pace for more than five years between january and march. official figures show growth of 0.1% which is worse than economists had predicted. we can hear more 110w from the treasury minister, liz truss and her reaction to the news. she says it is a traditionally tougher time of year in some sectors: i think we have got some very good economic fundamentals. unemployment is at a record low since 1975. we have also seen some very positive news in terms
1:41 pm
of new companies set up, but i will not deny it, today's figures are not as fast growth as we would hope for, and that is why we are taking the measures we are, investing in more infrastructure, skills and looking at how we can in courage more companies to scale up and improve our productivity. why is that figure for this quarter, 0.1%, the lowest since 2012, so bad? well, traditionally, the first quarter of the year has not been the best. it is a difficult time of year for retailers for example. we have seen some one—off effects affecting this quarter, but i'm not going to use the excuse of snow on the line. we need to make sure that all of the announcements we made on the budget in housing are coming into effect. it does take time for those things to go through the planning system for example, but we recognise that more needs to be done.
1:42 pm
does it not show that your economic policies are not working? the growth rate now is as bad as it was in 2012? you've been telling the public that we have all these policies to improve growth, but they're not working? we have had a steady rate of growth. we have not gone into recession. that was much predicted. we have got record employment, which is very important, and now the challenge is productivity. how do we make sure that everybody who is employed is able to earn more, has the skills to earn more and boost our economy in that way? but there are many parts of our economy, such as the tech sector, which is absolutely booming. we saw more than double the investment in 2017 compared to 2016. it is not doom and gloom. there are lots of positives, there. but some of these turnarounds do take time. layers trusts —— liz truss the

minister talking to our editor. the authorities in california believe they have identified the so—called golden state killer, thought to be responsible for at least 50 rapes and 12 murders in the 1970s and 80s. the man they've arrested is a former police officer, joseph deangelo, and he's due in court today. tom millerfrom kcra news in california explained how us law enforcement tracked him down. he was caught through dna technology. we are talking the latest dna technologies in the united states, and it's still not completely clear what the actual links work, but the latest information is that the suspect, who is named, joseph deangelo, had a relative whose dna was entered into a genealogy website. someone who was trying to find out about their family history, and that that information was accessed by law enforcement, and that they were able to then find a dna match, by matching the dna of the relative of the suspect, with dna samples that had been taken
1:44 pm
from crime scenes. then, by looking at the family tree, of that relative, they started... all the arrows started pointing to this man, joseph deangelo. nowadays, it is very likely, however, the last time that joseph deangelo was an officer was in the 1970s, so at that point, if they didn't have dna technology, so his dna would not have been in any sort of database. i know that you have been speaking to his brother—in—law, haven't you? and that was california reporter tom miller for us. the duke and duchess of cambridge have announced the name of their third child. the prince's official title will be his royal highness prince louis arthur charles of cambridge.
1:45 pm
he was born on monday and is fifth in line to the throne. earlier the former royal butler grant harrold — who spent seven years working with the duke and duchess, told me the choices are a tribute to the prince's grandparents. i think it is wonderful. they have gone with a very traditional royal name, obviously the young prince's father has it as one of his names. arthur, his great—great—grandfather george vi, arthur is in that name. and charles as well, after his grandfather they've covered all the names, i think it is very traditional and quite apt. traditional and in keeping with the names given to their other children, charlotte and george. how do you think, you mentioned their ba by‘s grandfather, prince charles, how do you think he will feel about the inclusion of his name? ithink like any grandparents, they will be thrilled by the idea they have included all these names that are important to the family. let us not forget the reason that royals tend to for traditional names, i know it is unlikely for this child as it's fifth in line for the throne, but if there's a possibility they can inherit, they know names they can opt for is there a title for a monarch.
1:46 pm
that is the reason they pick these traditional and give names. i think this will be a very fitting name for the young prince. do you think it is more of a nod to the family tradition rather than royal tradition albeit louis is a very regal name but perhaps not in recent history and not associated with the british royals? louis, as far as you go with france, it is very traditional royal name and let us not forget there is a lot of connections between british and french royals. i think it is more of family names with a bit of tradition. louis quite a popular name these days as well so it is very in keeping with the kind of names that were being looked at. as someone who has worked for the royal household for seven years perhaps you can give us an insight into what it would be like with the arrival of this new addition to the family. i'm sure it is very exciting.
1:47 pm
he has a lot of grandparents and great grandparents who will be very eager to spend time with the youngster. it is a very exciting time, isn't it, for anybody who is just had a child and getting to be at home and spend those magical first few weeks with them. in a moment a summary of the business news this hour but first, the headlines on bbc news: a momentous step. talks between the leaders of north and south korea take place in the demilitarised zone, with a pledge there should be no more war on the peninsula. the duke and duchess of cambridge announce the name of the new royal arrival, prince louis. the government's hostile environment for immigrants is putting public safety at risk, say nhs bosses, after visas for 100 indian doctors were blocked by the home office. the uk economy grew at its slowest rate since 2012 in the first

quarter of the year. gdp growth was 0.1%, down from 0.4% in the previous quarter. bad weather, was a small factor, affecting construction and retail but the office of national statistics which collects the data said longer term there were increasing signs of weakness in the service sector. royal bank of scotland has reported an increased profit, nearly £800 million for the first three months, income is rising and more important it's pretty much finished paying out on legal and reconstruction costs. but there is still one more monster fine expected from the us over the misselling of mortgage—backed securities before the financial crisis. the number of parking tickets being issued by private car park management firms hit a record 5.65m last year. the rac says its "astonished" that the number rose by almost a fifth and was far above levels of a decade ago.

fines can reach as high as £100 for contraventions such as overstaying. tsp is coming to the end of one of its worst weeks at that. it all started last sunday as it tried to upgrade its online banking system. at the time, it said that it lasted only 20 minutes, and impacted just a tiny fraction of our customer base. that was its words in its official statement. on wednesday, it admitted that five out of every ten customers that five out of every ten customers that tried to access the internet banking service couldn't. in compensation, it has been offering customers hires savings rates and cancelled overcharges. joining us now is holly mackai, founder and ceo of boringmoney.co.uk. do you think customers should say
1:50 pm
enough is enough?|j do you think customers should say enough is enough? i think many of them actually saying that. millions of people have not been able to access their bank accounts. they cannot even see what they have got. it is payday, and a lot of small business owners cannot pay people. there are lots of people that are saying they are going to move. the problem we have got to think about, is that i believe that tsp are alone with this issue. bank technology that we have across the uk is creaking. it is old. it was implemented in the nineteen sixtiess. the problem is that if you jump sixtiess. the problem is that if you jump from tsb to another brand, is the same thing just as likely to happen further down the track? byes have you seen an increase in this kind of things going on? have you seen kind of things going on? have you seen a kind of things going on? have you seen a trend? i think what we are seeing is that banks have those old wheezing technology. working people who bank with rbs will member in
1:51 pm
2012. they were locked out of accounts. the banks are desperately trying to upgrade, they are trying to compete with the tech players like facebook, they are trying to com plete like facebook, they are trying to complete with block chain, but as they try and migrate, they are running into problems. i certainly do not think this is an isolated incident. so how do you protect yourself? what do you do? you're talking about a potential armageddon whichever way you step in terms of banking? i think the actual underpinning systems are solid. what we are seeing is problems of people being able to access that. lots of people are saying, what does this lean? we should go to the challenge of banks? the new guys? but those have not been tested yet thoroughly, and my personal sense is that we need to protect ourselves by having a couple of different bank account so a couple of different bank account so that there is something in place. no, it is not an ideal thing to say, but i think it is practical, because these banking technologies, we see
1:52 pm
it as well with the insurers, with the investment houses, when they try and free platform, quite often it ends up in severe problems. so, i think that people unfortunately have got to see this as something that they will expect to see more of moving forward. so put your eggs in more than one basket?|j moving forward. so put your eggs in more than one basket? i think we have got to think i got, and it is a shame, but experience would suggest that this will not be an isolated incident. thank you very much. the number of new houses registered to be built in the first three months of the year fell by 14%. that's according to the national house building council, which blamed the extreme weather caused by the "beast from the east". it marks the worst percentage fall in one three month period since 2012. amazon has reported a 43% surge in sales for the first quarter to $51 billion or £37 billion, while profits more than doubled. the news sent the online retail

1:54 pm
that the pound is still falling against the euro. it weak pound today, that is largely because of those weaker gdp figures. very often, when ecb pound weakening, you see the ftse strengthening, because all of the money that is made within the ftse100, they are making money in dollars, they are making money in... royal bank of scotland third down by 2% following its result, which looked pretty strong as i was saying earlier, but still isn't worried amongst investments —— worries amongst investors saying that we have got this big fine coming up from the united states. no one knows how much is going to be. that's all the business news. fans of the pop group abba now really can say "thank
