that a doctor running it would have been questioned if he were still alive today. the late dr kenneth milner would have been interviewed over rape and child cruelty claims between the 1940s and 1970s, when he ran aston hall. former patients have described the hospital as a place of "pure hell". sima kotecha has been hearing the distressing accounts of two people who say they were were abused as children. for decades, a hospital for troubled and vulnerable children, set in the derbyshire countryside. now, scores of allegations that aston hall was the scene of widespread abuse. and at the centre of those allegations, dr kenneth milner, the man in charge from 19117 until his death in 1975. my first day there, i was put straight into a cell and all my clothes taken off me.

the door opens, dr milner walks in with a kidney dish with a syringe in it. i don't know what's happening. david says he was just 12 at the time, when he was plied with the so—called truth serum. he injected me and lay down on the floor — i was on a mattress on the floor, and he put a mask on my face and started to drop fluid on it, which i now know was ether, which is... it's a strong... i don't know, it just knocks you out. well, this is aston hall now. the hospital no longer exists. the building has been converted into flats. there were more redbricked buildings that surrounded the mansion. they have been knocked down. it is in those buildings where much of the alleged abuse took place. today, a three—year police investigation involving testimony from more than 100 witnesses concluded that if dr milner was alive, he would be questioned

about potential offences, including rape and child cruelty. in a report, officers say: the man who led the investigation says the authorities are now in a much better place. we've got really strong safeguarding and it's not only around being able to monitor those in those positions but it's also that there's now an avenue for the voice of the victim be heard. why has it taken this long for these allegations to come to light? derbyshire police didn't know anything about it until 2011. so it's difficult for us to comment, really, around what occurred then. the police have said that no

evidence could be made. even though the doctor has died, in the minds of many of his accusers, he remains very much alive. it's a period of recovery and will probably be the rest of my life. there will never be closure. you can replace it. —— can't replace it. your childhood is stolen. you can't replace it. that was sima kotecha reporting. a "biblical catastrophe" is how one survivor described assyrian attack. a "biblical catastrophe" is how one survivor described the fires that have hit greece.

at least 80 people have died in the flames which took hold near the capital athens. a man from ireland who was on his honeymoon in greece is among the victims. rescue teams are searching for those who are still missing, after residents and tourists fled to the sea to escape the flames around the resort of mati, north east of athens. several people have been arrested on suspicion of starting the fires deliberately. mark lowen reports. they had hope, until now. but the family of 88—year—old angeliki have just heard the worst. that she was the 80th person killed by the wildfires. her charred remains were discovered in her home. so unrecognisable was she, only her dna identified her. for her son, nicos, a mix of shock and rage. fortunately, i didn't find her by myself because i couldn't face the view. the body is totally burned. when the pain will calm down, i will prosecute to all levels

everybody that is responsible for this catastrophe. i will not stop until i will die. it's still not known how the spark was lit, but the gale force winds meant the flames galloped down the mountains. dozens are missing and almost 200 were injured. like susan stephos from britain, burnt by the fire as she ran from her home. it is hard to find words for such a tragedy. when i was in the house and the fire was going over, i thought, "i'm not going to make it. "this is the end". but... prayers were answered. and i managed. the streets of mati are like a burnt—out ghost town. the scorched shells are all that remain of family homes, and some still bear the trace of the inferno. for the engineers, the task

of assessing what can still stand and what must be torn down. dora says it's as if an earthquake struck. something very, very bad has happened here. and it's just the feeling of walking along in a place that i knew was full of green and trees and all these things. it's very difficult, and i have to cope with people that have psychological problems right now. it's quite difficult for everyone. these are the people going in the water. volunteer lifeguards scour the coast for any sign of life or death. hundreds of people were rescued as they ran into the sea to escape the flames. the hope of finding any more survivors has virtually gone, so the aim now is to look for belongings and bodies. for some, the sea marked their salvation from the flames. for others, it was the end. the memories of that night lie buried here and in the remains

of a part of greece scarred forever. in a meeting with european commission president jean—claude juncker, us president donald trump has said he hopes to work out a fair and reciprocal trade deal between the united states and europe. their meeting in washington is a last—ditch attempt to avoid an all—out trade war. we'll be live in washington with the latest, in a few minutes' time. italian scientists believe they've found a lake deep beneath the surface of mars. it's thought to be the first evidence of a body of liquid water on the planet — that hasn't disappeared over time. researchers say it could help establish whether there really is, or ever has been, life on mars. the discovery was made using marsis, a radar instrument on board european space agency's mars express orbiter. it made the observation of the surface and immediate subsurface of the planet by sending out a signal and examining what is bounced back.

the results show that the liquid water is about 1.5 kilometres below the surface, beneath a layer of ice and dust. speaking at the press conference to explain the findings enrico flamini from the italian space agency explained what had inspired them to search beneath the surface. it's a fact that for sure, in the past, most of the water has been sweated out by the solar wind. and the... provided, that's the idea that in another planet. in the case of the earth, for example, some of the water that was once present on mars should've migrated to the subsurface and eventually remained trapped possibly since the time when mars was wet. joining us is suzie imber, lecturer at university of leicester's department of physics and astronomy and i'm also joined by chris hadfield, former astronaut and commander of the international space station.

so, but start with the basics which is how did they manage to find this. what is the evidence that this body of water is there? they were bouncing radio waves down onto the planet and they observed in a region around the southern hemisphere there was a layer underneath the eyes which bounced back a radio wave. as a result, their attitude determined it was1.5 a result, their attitude determined it was 1.5 columbus under the surface. they determined that was a layer between ice and liquid water. to be just layer between ice and liquid water. to bejust get lucky? what made layer between ice and liquid water. to be just get lucky? what made them look there? they have been orbiting the planet since 2003 and they had three years of data stored preserves this result. at took 29 passes. they did notjust this result. at took 29 passes. they did not just happen this result. at took 29 passes. they did notjust happen to spot it. chris, tell me what you felt when you heard this news because we have heard about their water being there.

weiss is so significant? just a casual look at mars was to show that mars had water flowing. the consumer beaten trails of it. but we never found liquid water. to me it is a little bit like taking in ultrasound to look inside someone's womb to see if life is taking all. if a woman is pregnant use in those ways and if they bounce back the right way, it is tantalising to look at the start of life. and that is what they have been doing is sending these waves down looking deep underneath the surface and is now seen what looks like a good size body of water and anywhere on earth that there is water, we find life. so, it is not for sure yet, but this may be our first real place to go look hard to see if we are alone are not. tell us a bit about the research that is going on around mars. it is a planet

that has captivated people's attach a partly because people are wondering if there is life out there, that is where it could be. little over 100 years ago, it was an italian astronomer that thought they saw canals on italian astronomer that thought they saw canals on mars. italian astronomer that thought they saw canals on mars. they thought maybe there had been some martian habitation that doctor canals. we have had that tantalising thought in out have had that tantalising thought in our mind for centuries. the closer we look is the more realise it's just a planet with different history. but now we have further evidence looking at the surface forms, looking at the glaciers, we landed near the north pole and found that the ice is a mixture of carbon dioxide like dry ice and water ice just like we find in our own polls. it is close enough to earth that it is very tantalising. it is one of the fundamental questions when you look up into the night side, are we alone are not? hours may be the place that answers the question. what is the next step as to what

more can be done to find out if there is something there? we know there is something there? we know there is something there? we know there is liquid water but in order for it to still be liquid in those temperatures near the poles on mars, it has to contain a large amount of salt, probably some salts to keep it liquid. we noticed up your water like you might hope to find. it would be hard for life to exist. but nasa and the european space agency are both sending rovers back to mars in around 2020. some of them have similar things but they also have drills to drill under the surface and try to look for water subsurface composition of mars. it is a pretty exciting time to be looking in this field. this is where the emphasis is on the search. is this the main place now where physicists and explores if you like, is this what they are looking at, this is the planet and place? that is the boys we re planet and place? that is the boys were looking for if we ever want to

go to another planet. but there actually real destiny other places in the solar system which is jupiter‘s moon, europa. it is a nice moon. and we have some evidence that there is a liquid ocean underneath thaticy there is a liquid ocean underneath that icy crust. and there hasn't lots of ideas but whether there is life on europa. any mission designed to go there in the 20 20s. mars, our nearest neighbour is where you have the best look, but the rest of the solar system is pretty promising in terms of looking for water. chris, if you had a chance to go somewhere else again, where would you go, what would you want to see? when i was a boy i set my heart of someday being able to walk on the moon. and we don't think the moon ever had a wife. but there is a lot of stuff we need to test to prove and take chances on. —— the moon never had life if we are ready to send somebody like suzie to mars. she is working pretty extreme locations on

earth. and i think someone with her set of skills would be a really good person to take what we have learned so person to take what we have learned so farand the person to take what we have learned so far and the next step further out into the sewer system. i would love to go, but i think i am probably too old. -- into the solar system. how far with that step? getting to the itiooi'i far with that step? getting to the moon is at the heart. we have our to beenin moon is at the heart. we have our to been in the question is when do we go from just to settling on the moon? i think that is within the next decade or two. mars is hard with the engines we have right now. but we will get there. former astra and commander of the international space station thank you. and susie, you have an invitation there. you are going. sounds wonderful, can't wait. thank you very much for coming. the headlines on bbc news. a police investigation finds evidence that 65 children were drugged then sexually abused at a former psychiatric hospital near derby over three decades. 80 people have been killed in the wildfires in greece, as the search continues

for dozens still missing. authorities fear the number of dead could rise to more than 100. no tariffs and no barriers and no subsidies. president trump gives the eu commission president his wish list ahead of talks to avoid a trade war. also coming up: record breaking temperatures and a risk of flash flooding. we'll bring you the latest from the met office as the heatwave continues. sport now, and for a full round—up, from the bbc sport centre, here's chris mitchell. good evening. just four days to go in the tour de france and it seems the british rider we thought would probably win it, probably won't. but victory draws ever nearer for another briton. team sky's geraint thomas has extended his lead to almost two minutes while defending champion, chris froome, lost time on a gruelling 17th stage. just a0 miles long in terms

of distance, but a day of intense climbing, won by nairo quintana, as drew savage reports. time running out for anyone wanting to ta ke time running out for anyone wanting to take the yellow jersey. stay time running out for anyone wanting to take the yellowjersey. stay 17, the shortest of the tour but one of the shortest of the tour but one of the hardest. three proclaims. colombia's nairo quintana rescued what's been a poor race by his standards, riding clear to take the stage win. that'd move him up to fifth overall but the fight for first was on the road behind him. thomas, defending champion chris froome, and third—placed tom dumoulin desperate to make something happen. the dutchman made his move, looked over his shoulder, and saw a rare sight. the man who's won the tour de france four times, the vuelta a espana and the giro d'italia, left behind. chris froome would lose nearly a minute. but as he slipped from second place, his team—mate tightened his grip on first. once again, the welshman riding away from his rivals. his advantage over dumoulin extended to one minute and 59 seconds. thatjersey isn't his to keep yet.

but more than ever before, it looks like it's his to lose. england are taking on the usa in the second match of their hockey world cup campaign it was an 8pm push back, and as you can see the latest score is 0—0. england drew their first match in the tournament 1—1 against india, they are expected to win this one co mforta bly. you can listen to the match over on bbc radio five live sports extra. rugby union is often rough and sometimes dangerous. hard—crunching tackles take their toll. a recent study showed a rise in injuries and concussion in the game. no surprise then perhaps that the rugby football union have announced that the tackle height will be lowered next season in a trial in england designed to make the game safer. let's show you how things

are going to change specifically. this is the current level of a legal tackle — anything below the top of the shoulders is currently deemed safe. the new safe level is going to be the underside of the armpit — not hugely lower, but significant in terms of protecting the ball carrier in the collision. it's a play well fair initiative. and at the day no wants to hurt anybody and 0lusegun injured when they are playing the game. anything we can do can do to reduce those statistics and also change the game, it may change the game the way that it may change the game the way that it is played. we do not know when we try. now, the world cup may be over for another four years, and the debate about what was the best goal of russia 2018 is over, too. france right—back benjamin pavard has won the 2018 world cup goal of the tournament award for his stunning strike against argentina. he adds the honour to winning the trophy with his country, of course. just time to tell you that celtic are currently losing 1—0 at home against norwegian side rosenborg in the first leg of their champions

league second round qualifier. we'll have all the details of that one in sportsday at 10:30pm. thank you, chris. —— thank you, chris. -- thank you chris. a father of three—year—old boy attacked nas attack. a 39—year—old was charged with committing grievous bodily harm. the long—term implications of his injuries remain unknown. in meeting this evening, don trop said he'll sort out a fair and reciprocal trade deal between the united states and europe. ——

donald trump. the present study at his ambitions for the meeting said that he expected something very positive. we want to have a fair trade deal and we are looking to have a fair trade deal and hopefully we can work something out. 0ver have a fair trade deal and hopefully we can work something out. over the yea rs, we can work something out. over the years, the united states has been losing hundreds of billions of dollars with the european union and we just wanted it to be a level playing field for our farmers, for oui’ playing field for our farmers, for our manufacturers, for everybody. and we also want a big beneficiary frankly to be the european union. so we think it could be good for everybody and that is why we're to discuss. 0ur correspondent gary 0'donoghue is in washington with more on this. not a surprising tough message from the president. how has it gone down with the eu? i think it's slightly temperfrom someone with the eu? i think it's slightly temper from someone some with the eu? i think it's slightly temper from someone some of the matter of —— megaphone type of the policy he was doing ahead of the

meeting, but the president of the commission rather pointedly i thought said to the president "we are not enemies", echoing donald trump's claim ten years ago that the eu as trump's claim ten years ago that the euasa trump's claim ten years ago that the eu as a foe. and it's better to talk to one another rather than at one another. taking his message to the centre of the administration. there is probably still talking as he speaks so we will see what comes out of it. but the best you can hope for this is a de—escalation of detention. there is still big issues like tariffs automobiles which the president it is very exercised about. your puts 10% on american ca i’s about. your puts 10% on american cars coming into the eu and he does not think that it's there and has threatened to hit that particular industry hard. —— your puts 10% on american cars. is it the eu or is it more china? will it end up being everybody and how close are we to this all—out trade work that eve ryo ne this all—out trade work that everyone really fears? everyone at

the moment. he said he is already impose a whole bunch of tariffs on canada and mexico and indeed on china. now ide you he is threatening more eu tariffs on arabs like pharmaceuticals —— on areas like pharmaceuticals. more tariffs on china. of course he has to respond to the concerns of the agricultural lobby here. he has to announce a $12 billion package to farmers in the midwest states here. partly direct hand—outs to things he size the eu for doing. —— he criticised the eu for doing. —— he criticised the eu for doing. —— he criticised the eu for doing same thing. the government is also bio surpluses for food and hand them out to a nutrition programme that there government sponsors for lower income families here. it's an interim situation that the ministration is stressing. his is only a temporary thing. —— administration is stressing. the risk of course is something that

wall street mention and the risk that economists imagine is the sort of mumbai, pope that we have going at the moment could be affected by that. —— this boom of economic growth. we have just heard from the national security adviser here, john bolton, that the summit that the president —— that causes so much difficulty that second summit with fibre but it looks like it has been postponed until at least next year. —— with vladimir putin. the statement saying he does not want it to happen while the witchhunt as it describes it of the russian investigation carries on. that is a special counsel. he doesn't know when neville and so this is kicking set can down the road. —— know when that will end. gary, thank you very much. another busy night in washington. the uk heatwave looks set to break records this week — the met office says friday could be the hottestjuly day ever. but after weeks of dry weather, and resulting parched land, thunderstorms and torrential downpours are now also

forecast in some areas, with the risk of flash flooding. 0ur correspondent danny savage reports. the heat is rising again. the land is cracking up and trains are running slow in places over concerns about rails expanding and buckling. but rain is expected, deluges which could see a swing to another extreme of british weather. it's not going to be that useful rain that many people want. it could run off very quickly and create local flooding, so downpours causing localised flooding and that could cause some serious problems. gin and tonic! sangria! that wasn't really what was on offer at the bupa southlands care home in harrogate this morning. but the serious point was about keeping the elderly hydrated in this heatwave. if we don't drink enough, and old people don't want to drink, it can then cause infections come which can then cause hospital admissions. so the advice for hot weather is not "nanny state"? well, no, because some old people just won't do it. especially if you're living

on your own, you won't think to get up and get that drink. out in the countryside of north yorkshire, this is what some of the dales rivers look like. the upper reaches, like here in littondale, have nothing in them. if you take a closer look at the river bank here, you can see all this debris. it shows where the water got to in the winter and early spring. where it's left is just how high the water got. now, compare that to now and the difference is extraordinary. mile after mile of this riverbed is completely dry. an awful lot of rain will have to fall over these hills to get the water flowing again. and nobody will be surprised if the uk's record high temperature is broken over the next 48 hours. danny savage, bbc news, north yorkshire. tomorrow we will have a special programme on the stove hot weather. it is called feeling the heat and we

will take a look at the impact and causes of the summer heat wave expecting countries around the world. that is tomorrow evening at 830 here on the bbc news channel. time for a look at the weather. we are facing a of a change to the weather by the end of the week into the weekend. something cooler and fresher with some rain in the forecast. before we reached that point, temperatures are set to rise even further in the next few days with increasing chance of thunderstorms by friday. 0vernight is going to be another warm and muqqy is going to be another warm and muggy one. largely dry with lengthy clear spells. breezy across parts of northern ireland. a little bit of light elsewhere. especially across southern areas. for thursday, the southis southern areas. for thursday, the south is looking dry. as temperature rise very quickly to the morning, hotter still across parts of northern and western england in towards wales. more of her breeze in northern ireland. there will be some showers here. 0thers

northern ireland. there will be some showers here. others will be like and humid. pretty uncomfortable to thejurors and humid. pretty uncomfortable to the jurors reached the and humid. pretty uncomfortable to thejurors reached the high 20s, widely across. maybe as switch is 30. 34, 35 in the southeast. hello, this is bbc news. the headlines. a police investigation finds evidence that 65 children were drugged and then sexually abused at a former psychiatric hospital near darby over three decades. 80 people have been killed in the wild fires in greece, as the search continues for dozens still missing. authorities fear the number of dead could rise to more than 100. no tariffs, no barriers, and no subsidies. president trump gives the eu president his wish list ahead of talks to avoid a trade war. unhappiness is not grounds for divorce. a woman loses her appeal at the supreme court to split from her

who is at westminster. brexit is still on everyone's mind, and lots of talk of no deal lately? there has been. since the break negotiations began, the government has offered to micah often repeated thatjust a phrase that no deal is better than a bad deal, and that has been bizarre asa bad deal, and that has been bizarre as a part of the position from the outset. but recently we have talked more about it and the government has stepped up its preparations for a no till scenario, that was one of the things that the prime minister and her cabinet agreed a few weeks ago. we're told to —— technical notices will be issued by the government over the summer about how people and businesses might be able to prepare for the eventuality of the uk leaving the eu with no deal will stop, 29 march next year and after the transition period, as well. but one person who certainly doesn't think is a good idea is simon

coatney, the irish foreign minister who was in london today, and says that britain can't afford and it should not be the government's focus. i think a lot of people are talking up inappropriately the likelihood of another deal breaker —— brexit. idon't likelihood of another deal breaker —— brexit. i don't think it's likely or anybody wants it, i don't think there's majority in parliament that i comes from or in london that supports that. sol i comes from or in london that supports that. so i think we need to be focusing on the intensification of the negotiations to try and find solutions in a way forward. as opposed to the tough stance that some people feel the need to take now there are some mps in the conservative party who argue that leaving the eu without a deal would actually be the best outcome and an opportunity for the uk, nobody really doubts that there'll some disruption in the meantime time and with heard the last few days about the government looking at options to stockpile various products. the health secretary said in parliament that he had told officials to draw

up that he had told officials to draw up some options in terms of stockpiling medicines in the event ofa no stockpiling medicines in the event of a no till scenario, the brexit said —— secretary dominic raab talk about it when he was questioned by mps earlier this week as well. the prime minister was asked about what the government is doing in terms of stockpiling goods for a no deal outcome at the end of the brexit negotiations in an interview with channel five news earlier on. she says that it is just part of the government doing its due preparations for the scenario and not something that people should be alarmed by. this is notjust about stockpiling. what that concept is is about making sure that we will be able to continue to do the things that are necessary once we've left the european union, if we leave with no deal. i think people should take reassurance from the fact that this isa reassurance from the fact that this is a government that is saying that we will be responsible about this, sensible about this, but while we're doing that, we will work for a really good deal in the interest of

the people here in the uk. this talk of no deal will continue because there is plenty of time for a deal to be done between the uk and the eu over the summer and into the autumn as the brexit negotiations continue. 0ctober as the brexit negotiations continue. october is the deadline, which is widely agreed to be the latest that any real deal can be done to give it time to be signed off by the european parliament in parliament here in the uk. and with every day and we think as buy between now and then, without a deal looking like a real prosthetic this prospect, the talk of print leaving without one will continue. thank you very much, jonathan blake there in westminster. returning now to one of our rescue stories, defined dozens of people missing after the deadly wildfires near athens. at least 80 people are known to have died, but that number is to rise. joining me now is

someone is to rise. joining me now is someone whose home was destroyed in the fire. thank you so much for speaking to us this evening. tell us what happened when you first found out that there was a fire in your area near your house? first of all, thank you for this. i'm sorry for my voice, i haven't slept for several days. we found out there was a wildfire in our area through twitter. my mother and my aunt, who are 70 years old, were alone in their house. my grandfather picked them up. suddenly i saw that there was a wildfire that was three km away from our house. we're seeing

some video footage of your house which is destroyed, really. we can see the rooms there where the fire has gone through them. there was nothing left, and there was another fire that took what was left of it. what about your neighbours? what has happened to your neighbours, friends? where are you living? people have provided us with houses, we are lucky enough because there a spare bedroom our mother's house. we watched our house being burned, we're lucky because we got out of —— alive. my mother and aunt were near the fire, but safely there was someone the fire, but safely there was someone to help them. i was speaking

to them on the phone and i could hear them screaming and i could also hear them screaming and i could also hear them screaming and i could also hear the fire. they said there was so hear the fire. they said there was so much smoke they could not breathe, they could not wait to get out because their house was on fire. they were positive they were going to be burned alive, they went to go and save our dog and a cat but they could not find them. after 30 minutes, it took them 30 minutes to walk through. they found the car, a young man was driving, they had just witnessed the house being burned. they got inside the car, and the driver decided to go towards the

city, and then someone told them not to go to the city because... they took the main road and police found them, and brought them to safety away from the fires. the fires destroyed our the neighbours houses. many of our neighbours died. people are missing, it's an absolute tragedy, a disaster, no words to describe it. it is a terrible time for your community. you and your family are thickly safe, what will you do that? what are your plans for the next few weeks, or even longer? we have no idea, we have a warm bed

this day and it is safe for the kids. they have no idea what is going on. it's amazing, we've had thousands of phone calls asking if we need clothes or food. thousands of phone calls asking if we need clothes orfood. it's amazing, i don't know what we have, the only thing i know is that we are blessed is the —— because we are alive. we lost everything inside that house the house —— u nfortu nately we even that house the house —— unfortunately we even lost our cat, but our belongings in the house are nothing. 98% of the area is burned,

i don't know if it will ever be the same. two little children asked our neighbourfor help, two little children asked our neighbour for help, they came out of nowhere. 0ur neighbour's phone died... he found the boat and rescued people with that boat. there are amazing stories of heroes, people who managed to survive. people who did their best, they sacrificed, they risk their own lives to some of us —— to save us. i cannot describe it, it was a living

hell. i'm lucky because i have somewhere to sleep, i don't know what's going on with the rest of the family. i know that there are hundreds of volunteers who are outside the house, waiting for experts to arrive. we are very, very moved from all this. the resident offered to help us and bring us food, they are trying to find missing people since monday, it's amazing. it's a mission of being human. thank you so much for speaking to us, and we are glad that you and your family speaking to us, and we are glad that you and yourfamily are speaking to us, and we are glad that you and your family are safe. thank you and your family are safe. thank you for telling us your story to us tonight. casting has begun in

pakistan's general election, which has been marred by violence and claims that the army is trying to manipulate the result. imran khan is in tight contest with the party of the former prime minister. around 3000 people are still waiting to be rescued in laos after a partially built dam collapsed, unleashing a wall of water that inundated nearby villages. the dam was part of a hydroelectric project involving laotian, tie and south korean firms. as many as 20 people have been killed, but many are still missing. it is feared the death toll could rise. a woman who wants to divorce her husband of 40 years on the grounds she is unhappy has lost her court appeal. she requested a divorce from her husband against his will, she claimed that the marriage had broken down and that she could not be expected to live with him. this is 0wens, who is 68, must now

stay married to her husband until 2020, when they will have been separated for five years. joining me now is liz hamblin, a divorce and separations specialist. thank you for coming in to speak to us. can you explain how the situation has happened? you explain how the situation has happened ? there'll you explain how the situation has happened? there'll be many people looking at this, and it happens in other cases, thinking how can someone other cases, thinking how can someone effectively be forced to stay married to someone she doesn't wa nt to stay married to someone she doesn't want to be married to? relationships, we think about them being made up of both conscious and unconscious processes. so those we know about... and others that are keepers there, people sometimes say that they can't stay together but be a part. how do you understand the? relationships and psychological processes don't fit neatly into the law. the law, as it is at the moment, paradoxically is keeping

this particular couple very engaged, they'll be very much on one another‘s minds, and it'll probably be as engaged or even more engaged with one another than they ever were before. socha explained the system that there is, people talk about a no—fault divorce system, but that isn't why we have? no, we have an adversarial system, and although some changes have been made and there can be a two—year separation if both partners agree, other than that, other areas are all to do the blame and somebody is to blame. and at the end of a relationship, it's very easy to see what the other person has done that either feels wrong or is hurtful. much harder to make sense of the contribution that we made ourselves, so that feeds into a system that says somebody is to blame. if you are hurt,... you

are an expert in this, you listen to people's stores all time. do you think the system should change so there is a move towards a no—fault divorce so you don't have this adversarial environment, which presumably leads to more antagonism? you are right and i believe it would be helpful to have nobly divorce. divorces are not an event, it is pa rt divorces are not an event, it is part of a process of the relationship. so once somebody is divorce or a couple is divorce, there wheels continue to be alive, and the amount of antagonism, hurt, bitterness, it will take longer and longer to recover from that. bitterness, it will take longer and longer to recoverfrom that. younger people, their children are affected. and in older people, we have a new service that is 50 plus that we're looking at how to help couples in older age stay together, if you

like. but there's also the issue, how come some couples may be able to stay together, and there will be others where perhaps the relationship has nowhere further to go? thank you so much, divorce specialist, thank you very much indeed. the headlines now on bbc news. a police investigation finds evidence that 65 children were drugged and then sexually abused at a former psychiatric hospital near derby over three decades. 80 people have been killed in the wild fires in greece, as the search continues for dozens still missing. authorities fear the number of dead could rise to more than 100. no ta riffs could rise to more than 100. no tariffs and no barriers, and no subsidies. president trump gives the eu commission president his wish list ahead of talks to avoid a trade war. an update on the market numbers for you, here is how london's and

reports on what the poll calls forgotten children. these four lads are part of a hidden story, children managed out of our schools. some are not even recorded as excluded. families persuaded the best option is to home educate instead. baily told me he'd spent two years at home with his grandparents. he'd been on the brink of exclusion when they agreed to home educate. the family did not realise they would get no help with that. we were just told that home—schooling is an option for kids who don't want to be in school. ididn't kids who don't want to be in school. i didn't feel confident in public, like i could engage with other kids. it was really just a like i could engage with other kids. it was reallyjust a downer. baily's been given a fresh start. today, mps warned of an alarming rise in hidden exclusions. this school has taken in one dozen pupils from home

education. so we're about ordinary families in grimsby and cleveland's who then find themselves having to teach gcs she's at home. and then i have left school at 16 themselves. in most cases, the students who have come to our school, that's the case. u nless come to our school, that's the case. unless there is a school going to ta ke unless there is a school going to take the students from home education, then yes, they will be invisible and loss of the system. grimsby and click arts have one of the highest rates of exclusions in england. the best pupils with special needs are most vulnerable. benjamin has been diagnosed with asperger‘s. his mum, dominique, feels she is —— has battled for yea rs feels she is —— has battled for years to get him into a good school. today's report says the system is stacked against parents. benjamin was excluded for not being disruptive, but for needing his own

and 12 years ago it had any use rise in trademark. but back then, the rival turned around and said that they disagreed with that, they produced their own forefinger chocolate treat in denmark. but it took until 2016 for the european court ofjustice to decide that no, it was not distinctive enough. there was a test in four european countries, ireland, belgium, greece and portugal, that kit kat was that shape, it was not unique. they went to appeal and that is why today, the european court has turned around and said that we agree with the original decision, it is not distinctive enough. it cannot have this eu wide trademark, there is a little caveat, the trademark office based in spain may have to go back and look at these details again. but essentially, the court has dismissed that original legal argument that has been going on for about 11—12

yea rs. has been going on for about 11—12 years. but get more on the recent hot weather and the heat affecting parts of the country. tourists have flocked to cumbria where depleted water levels have uncovered the remains of a village that was blown up remains of a village that was blown up in the 1930s to build a reservoir. damien 0'neill reports. in the light —— late 1930s, the village of margo green was given up in the creation of a reservoir. the buildings were destroyed before the... but on rare occasions, the remains start to emerge. to give you some idea of how much water has been lost recently, the water has fallen by ten metres across the surface area of1.5 square by ten metres across the surface area of 1.5 square miles. the rare spectacle of being able to walk among the ruins of the old village has now become a big tourist attraction. i never realised how lovely it could look, now that all

the water has gone out of it.|j lovely it could look, now that all the water has gone out of it. i was here last month, and the water was almost overflowing. so to see it so low is absolutely fantastic. it's quite awesome when you look down there and see the outlay lighter footprint of what used be like and how the big —— how big the village was. when you look up and you can see where the walls come down, they go in line with what is under the water, you think that is amazing. go in line with what is under the water, you think that is amazing]! quite mind blowing to even visualise what it must‘ve been like before they even flattened the village and build a reservoir. damien o'neill, bbc look north, in cumbria. people aren't the only ones suffering in the heatwave, the british hedgehog preservation society has said it's received an influx of calls from those who want to report the headed headroom —— hedgehog in need of help. sheltering from the oppressive

heat, these tiny hedgehogs are likely to survive. they are amongst scores brought here to the wildlife rescue near shropshire. the heatwave has made food and water hard to come by. volunteers are working round—the—clock to restore the mammals to health. they're struggling to find natural sources of water that they would usually find, and also food because the ground is so hard and dry that they can't dig for food. their natural food is buried deep below the ground did —— food is buried deep below the ground did -- to food is buried deep below the ground did —— to keep cool stuff but the problem with the dehydrated and emaciated hedgehogs is so acute, people are being urged to help. shallow bowls of water around the ya rd shallow bowls of water around the yard are good. hedgehog food, biscuits, making sure hedgehogs can get to the garden is important to access those goodies. it's notjust hedgehogs suffering in the heatwave. many bird species, including thistles little swift here, are also falling foul of the high temperatures. swifts and many other

bird species are spending more time looking for food because of the hot weather, and sometime disastrous consequences for their checks. a lot of birds, when they arrive, the dry weather had already started. so they couldn't attend to their nests as well as they normally would, and a lot of them are just dropping. so of course, all of them are being found on the floor. just four days old, this house martin is the youngest of 822 creatures brought here in just one month. it is a record. sadly, many of these species are in decline anyway, but at least these lucky ones will be nursed back to health and released into the wild once more. this is the scene in washington where president trump and jean—claude juncker are due to washington where president trump and jean—claudejuncker are due to make speeches and statements made them occur shortly. mike collects from
