casualties or desertions... of attrition whether through commentator: teed up for robertson, and there is mo salah! and liverpool make a strong start to the premier league season with a win over west ham. to the premier league season it costs good afternoon. a spacecraft launched by nasa from cape canaveral in florida has begun a long journey towards the sun and an orbit that will get it closer to the surface of the star than any previous mission. the parker solar probe is about the size of a car, and protected by a special heat shield which will allow it to function in searing temperatures. shield which will allow it our science correspondent pallab ghosh has this report. three, two, one, zero — lift off. pallab ghosh has this report. into the night, and on its way to touch the sun.

..a daring mission to shed light on the mysteries of our closest star, the sun. light on the mysteries nasa's parker solar probe will get closer to the sun than any spacecraft before it, actually dipping into the sun's atmosphere. actually dipping into the trajectory looking good, right down the middle... the probe was named after the 91—year—old solar physicist eugene parker, who was at the launch. all i'm going to say is wow, here we go, we're in for some learning over the next several years. it'll travel at 120 miles each second, faster than any other probe. even so, it'll take three months to reach the sun, passing venus on the way. months to reach the sun, the spacecraft will spend seven years looping around the sun, and it'll get hot — 1300 degrees celsius. we have a wonderful heat shield that we keep oriented between us and the sun, and so it keeps everything in the main body of the spacecraft nice and cool, and kind

of creates a shadow. nice and cool, and kind and it has a white coating on it that was specially designed for parker solar probe. that was specially designed very much like you'd prefer to be in a white car on a hot day instead of a black car on a hot day. in a white car on a hot day instead the probe will study the sun's atmosphere, which can be seen from earth during a total eclipse. shimmering and beautiful from so far away, violent and tumultuous close—up. from so far away, violent and tumultuous close up. from so far away, violent this is a real picture from a previous mission. the parker probe will look even closer. it's really important that we study the sun because it affects our lives on earth in so many ways, so there's a lot we don't understand about the sun — for example, the sun's atmosphere is far hotter than its surface, which is the opposite of the case from the earth. which is the opposite and we don't really understand why, and parker solar probe will help us understand those things for the first time. the northern lights are caused by particles spat out by the solar atmosphere. by particles spat out these same particles can disrupt power points and communications. by studying the sun,

scientists hope to be able to predict these events and learn more about a star on which all life on earth depends. more about a star on which all pallab ghosh, bbc news. more about a star on which all ten people, including two children, have been treated in hospital following a shooting in manchester's moss side, which the police have described as attempted murder. a carnival had been taking place nearby, but had finished some time before the attack took place. nearby, but had finished some time police said it was "a reckless act that could have had devastating consequences." act that could have had from moss side, megan paterson reports. thousands of people enjoy manchester's caribbean carnival every year. manchester's caribbean yesterday was no exception. manchester's caribbean but after the event finished, at a large party a few streets away, shots were heard. at a large party a few streets officers arrived on the scene at 2:30am this morning. some were armed. at 2:30am this morning. nine people, including two children, suffered pellet—type wounds. another man has leg injuries. suffered pellet—type wounds. whilst the injuries are serious, they're not life—threatening. i think it's more by luck

that that's occurred, and actually discharging a firearm in a crowded place like that, we could be investigating here a murder inquiry as opposed to an attempted murder investigation. over the last 30 years, this area has changed dramatically. guns and violence were once commonplace here. this incident has caused anger and frustration for the community leaders who've worked hard to change this neighbourhood's reputation. i live in moss side, i love moss side, i breathe the air of moss side. i love moss side, i breathe i've been there for a long time and i will continue to spread the good word about this community, but situations like this don't help, and it's about sending messages to the people. extra reassurances are today being given to people living in the area. we're very, very proud of moss side, very proud of the people that live around here. very proud of the people it's a fantastic, thriving community. 16,000 people at the celebration yesterday, an indication of the strength of this community. yesterday, an indication and we're not going to allow this one idiot to cast a shadow over moss side or the carnival.

one idiot to cast a shadow over an attempted murder investigation continues in moss side this evening. the community as earer as the police to understand what happened here. as the police to understand and as the police to understand an accordion on clarem and an accordion on claremont road and spine has been lifted now. and alas hours or community leaders have beena alas hours or community leaders have been a sweeping up and clean up the glass —— been a sweeping up and clean up the glass -- a police cordon on claremont road behind me has been lifted as my. ten people were admitted to hospital immediately and over the course of the day another two have presented with minor injuries. we understand that hopefully of the people who experienced injuries, that eight adults >> anchor—2—mac: children, they should be released in the next few hours. the community is really hopeful that tonight there can be another party atmosphere on the

streets —— eight adult and two children. this party was not connected to the carnival going on in the park and they hope the community feels reassured by that and that tonight will be another lively, positive atmosphere, as that police investigation continues. megan paterson, thank you very much. a remembrance service has been taking place to mark the 20th anniversary of the 0magh bombing. taking place to mark the 20th 29 people were killed when a car bomb planted by dissident republicans exploded in the town's high street. 0ur correspondentjohn campbell is in 0magh now. what campbell is in 0magh now. we saw today is that 2( on what we saw today is that 20 years on the pain still injuries and in many ways the 0magh families have not been able to grieve privately and that is because in the years after the bombing they have had to launch a very public campaign to get the perpetrators before the courts. as it stands, nobody has been convicted for their role in the 0magh bombing. today we also got a sense of a new phase for the

families. the sort of ceremony which took place today will no longer be an annual event in the future. instead, the families will grieve in a more personal and private way. some say it is time for that to happen. but other families say that what is so important is that the fight forjustice what is so important is that the fight for justice must continue. they are continuing to campaign for a public inquiry and there will be further legal hearings around that in the coming months and years. john campbell, in 0magh, thank you. northern rail cancelled around 80 of its train services today, affecting journeys to liverpool, lancashire and greater manchester. to liverpool, lancashire the rail company blamed engineering problems. it follows similar disruption last weekend, and on the day of the world cup final. weekend, and on the day the company said the cancellations would offer passengers "more certainty in planning their journeys.

fire illumination rounds as well as lethal long—range artillery rockets to target enemy positions. artillery rockets to by day, they oversee the training of the afghan army and the soldiers need all the help they can get. of the afghan army and the soldiers they unit has already suffered heavy losses. the call right now is sitting at about 30%. 30% of what it should be? sitting at about 30%. yes, that's right. sitting at about 30%. that's a worry, isn't it? sitting at about 30%. it is, but there's a time, time of recruiting, constant advising and the senior leadership will improve the situation. we joined the afghan army out on patrol on the main highway to helmand. on patrol on the main

this, the road regularly targeted by taliban roadside bombs. but our escorts are more interested in their entertainment along the way. interested in their they still don't always look or sound like a professional army. the afghan army is now leading the fight. but they are well below strength, suffering high rates of attrition, whether through casualties or desertions, and they are still only just able to secure central helmand where most of the population lives. central helmand where most britain may have turned its back on helmand, but it does have a presence here in the capital kabul. 0n the ground, british soldiers have been tasked with transporting international advisers safely round the city. it's this mission that's been boosted by another 440 uk troops.

it still america that's doing the heavy lifting, but it's talking, not fighting that will change the course of this war. nobody is talking about fighting their way to victory any more. victory now is a political settlement and that is more than ever on the cards. settlement and that is more but there's still no peace process, and for these afghan soldiers there's still no end in sight to 17 long years of war. jonathan beale, bbc news, kabul. long years of war. liverpool's long years of war. had a good start to the new liverpool's had a good start to the new football season. with all the sport now, here's 0lly foster at the bbc sport centre. here's 0lly foster at yes, here's 0lly foster at they have had a good start. manchester city have also started the defence of their premier league title, they are currently beating arsenal i—0 at the emirates stadium. arsenal i—0 at the emirates earlier southampton drew 0—0 against burnley and liverpool made a flying start to their season beating west ham 4—0 at home. adam wild reports. beating west ham 4—0 at home. at beating west ham 4—0 at home. anfield the fans 5

hope at anfield the fans sing of having hopein at anfield the fans sing of having hope in their hearts. some years since those hopes have been higher. there is a real belief that there's liverpool side now has what it takes to challenge the very best. in the first half they had more than enough... mo salah remains the source of much of that optimism. liverpool dominant, and finding more space than perhaps even they might have hoped for. sadio mane scoring a second before half—time. such a lead, though, more than they deserve. west ham's chances of and fleeting. for a club that has invested heavily this summer, this was a disappointing return. liverpool meeting little resistance, and while mane here was quite possibly of side, his finish was as emphatic as the scoreline. such was their confidence, salah was substituted. his replacement daniel sturridge adding a fourth, with his very first touch. far tougher tests lie ahead of course, but those liverpool high hopes have grown a

little more. gavin wilde, bbc news. —— adam wild. england's cricketer‘s are heading for victory in the second test against india at lords. for victory in the second test joe root declared with a first innings lead of almost 300 and india have collapsed — they are currently 114—6 in their second innings stuart broad has taken four wickets on the fourth day. england look set to go two—up in the five match series. it's the final day of the european championships — great britain should win more medals in the athletics in berlin later this evening. in the athletics in berlin there has already been success in glasgow in the gymnastics. success in glasgow holly hamilton is there for us. success in glasgow the success in glasgow final day, a final gold rush. all the final day, a final gold rush. all five british gymnasts competing in the final in the men's apparat is. dominic cunningham on the floor with a near—perfect routine. a nervous wait followed. good enough for first place. what about that, if you can! but none of them could. gold. it is crazy, itell you. this

has been looking back at his life. 196! v s naipaul‘r established in 196! v s naipaul‘s name was established as a writer, inspired by his own wife, an oxford educated author whose roots lay in the indentured indian workforce of the caribbean sugar plantations. indentured indian workforce of the caribbean sugar plantationslj indentured indian workforce of the caribbean sugar plantations. i was born in trinidad, all these facets, the background personality and life, to be explored. in 2001 he was awarded the nobel prize for literature. it was just one of many, but he could also be gruff, prickly, his views on africa upsetting his critics... you didn't try to keep the worst aspect of his earlier behaviour away from the site of the biographer —— he didn't try. in the end, it is not the personality traits, rather it is the books, the works of literature, that will endure. the writer salman rushdie said even though they disagreed all their lives, he felt he had lost a

beloved elder brother. the scholarship boy from trinidad who had arrived in oxford in the fifth diplomat was always something of an outsider looking in, his gaze could be unforgiving and he was almost a lwa ys be unforgiving and he was almost always worth reading. to understand me, you have to know that writing is the most important aspect of my life. so it's a kind of magic, of magic. sir v s naipaul has died at the age of 85. that is it from us. we're back with the late news at ten o'clock. now on bbc one, ten for the news where you. goodbye. hello. this is bbc news with shaun ley. 39 civilians, including 12 children, have been killed in an explosion that brought down a building in the mainly rebel—held syrian province of idlib.

it's not known what caused the blast, but the building is reported to have contained a store of munitions belonging to an arms trafficker. most of the people in the building are believed to have been syrians displaced from other areas of the country. the government says its planning to introduce new offences of causing death by dangerous or careless cycling. under the proposal cyclists who kill pedestrians would be treated in a similar way to dangerous drivers, who face a prison sentence up to 1a years. cycling campaigners are calling for wider reform of road safety legislation. simonjones reports. kim briggs was knocked over by a cyclist in london in 2016. she died a week later. the bike that hit her shouldn't have been on the road — it was designed for the velodrome, with no front brake. charlie alliston was riding it. he was cleared of manslaughter butjailed for 18 months for causing bodily harm by wanton or furious driving, under a law from victorian times. there is no cycling equivalent

of the offence of causing death by dangerous driving. with the support of kim briggs‘ family, the government will now consider whether that should change in england, scotland and wales. we were very concerned because there has been a worry that there was a gap in the law relating to dangerous and careless cycling and the potential offence of death or serious injury caused by that. of course, the gap was highlighted by the alliston case last year. campaigners say adding an couple of new offences specific to cyclists isn't going far enough. the government are missing an opportunity. what they should be doing is having a full review of all road traffic offences and penalties. they've ducked that. four years ago, they said they would do it. what we've ended up with is a review of cycling offences on their own. the whole system in relation to road traffic offences and penalties isn't working. the government says it is also doing more to keep cyclists themselves safe, with improvements to the highway code planned

to try to stop drivers passing too closely to bikes. simon jones, bbc news. there's been a rise in the number of single women choosing to have ivf. according to the government's advisory body, the human fertilisation and embryology authority, the number of people without partners opting for the treatment has gone up by 35%. but experts say there's a shortage of sperm donors. anisa kadri has more. holly kerr from oxford was both nervous and excited when she decided to have ivf. noah was born this year, after the treatment worked second time round. if i wanted to have a baby, i kind of needed to get a move on because i was 36 when i first started thinking about it. i became aware that i had not been in a relationship for some time. if i didn't go down the ivf route, it might never happen. polly is one of a growing number of single women having ivf. she used an anonymous sperm donor. how prepared are you for one day, noah turning around and saying, i want to meet my dad?

i feel very torn. when he turns 18, he can start to find out. that will be quite a poignant moment for me. if there is a chance that he has half—brothers or half—sisters, i know how much i have loved having a sister and i think that would be lovely for him to find out about. ivf involves an egg being fertilised with spam in a laboratory. the number of treatments for patients without a partner has gone up nationally. it has gone up over a thousand since 2014. that is an increase of 35%. 0xford fertility says it is seeing the same increase and will treat more than 20 single women this year. unfortunately, ivf is expensive. it could be between five and £7,000 per cycle. the success rate might be between 30 and 50% depending on the woman's age.

the clinic says there is a shortage of sperm donors. the law in the uk is that when children are born with a donor and they are 18, they can trace the donor. perhaps that puts some people off. ivf can be free on the nhs if certain criteria is met. polly never thought she would end up using money she saved on the treatment but there came a point where she thought it was her best option. cornwall is "struggling to cope" with "unprecedented mass tourism" this summer according to visit cornwall, the county's tourist board. it said that it has actively stopped promoting two beaches because of problems caused by overcrowding. porthcurno beach and kynance cove, traditionally quieter beauty spots, have seen an influx of visitors after social media promotion. local people said traffic gridlock was making some communities unsafe. joining me now from truro is malcolm bell, chief executive of visit cornwall. you have been a bit too successful?

also, the tremendous weather we have had this summer, but can never be underestimated, the power of people surfing at 30 degrees and enjoying the coast. we do have 400 beaches, so the coast. we do have 400 beaches, so two overcrowded and some under pressure but we have more than enough teachers to satisfy the people of great britain. you will have seen the pictures at porthcurno, the traffic backing up and people parking willy—nilly making it hard for emergency vehicles and delivery vehicles getting through. there are things like parking attendants and police officers, what is happening in terms officers, what is happening in terms of the support the industry has downed their to make it more practicalfor downed their to make it more practical for people to get around? the first thing is information. if you imagine, the pictures you are

seeing where from last weekend, particularly on the sunday. lots of local people going out. we have all those other beaches and if you want to go to these hotspots, listen to the news and listen to the traffic, alas bing you want to do is get caught in the big trafficjams. it isa caught in the big trafficjams. it is a matter of redistributing across a beautiful part of the country and getting the information when it is best to go there and more importantly, when it is wise not to go there. how frustrated have the people who live in the county been getting this summer? one in three households in cornwall depends on tourism. we want people to have a great experience but also the locals do have a good experience. 52 weeks of the year, this is a challenge for about four weekends per year and about four weekends per year and about six weeks. we can allow local people to get on with their days and

visitors have a great time and that is what we have got to tackle. it has been a challenge this summer but we are to keep working on it and we wa nt we are to keep working on it and we want local people do have a great life but visitors to have a good time. we have the bank holiday weekend coming up and in the light of the pressures experienced so far this summer, what will be done differently in preparation for that weekend and what additionally you and your other partners like cornwall council, doing to make sure the bank holiday weekend go smoothly for visitors? i am sure we will have conversations with cornwall council about traffic management. we have amazing beaches in cornwall, around bude amber coast, we have 100 that feature on a free map so there are more than enough beaches. maybe come backin more than enough beaches. maybe come back in the spring to go to the more popular beaches. come back in may

andjune and popular beaches. come back in may and june and have another great holiday in cornwall but enjoy the other 400 plus beaches we have got for people to enjoy. you mentioned bude on the north coast, they have a jazz festival coming up next month thatis jazz festival coming up next month that is a big draw for people outside and of south—west of the country. you talk about the county close to plymouth. it has a problem in terms of people who don't have their own cart or don't want to use their own cart or don't want to use their car? we are working with great western railway, notjust bringing people in but moving them around. there are great works going on so people can move around. lots of positive things happening for this going forward and the bosses and the trains are integrated on their timetable so a lot of good things going on so you don't necessarily

need a car. leave the car aside one day and enjoy being with your loved ones without the hassle of driving by using improving public transport. but the risk of offending everybody else in cornwall, what is your favourite spot? i have several, last sunday i was in the sunshine with some friends on the beach with less than 20 people that was 200 metres long. little bit of effort and walking and in that case, a boat and you can find lots of beautiful beaches. the national trust, we have an amazing coastline and coastal path. bit of research and you can find your precious bit of cornwall, even on the hottest day with very few people on it. good advice for the rest of the month. thank you very much for your tips. time for a look at the weather with sarah keith lucas. should be some brightness moving in

from the west, but also, some heavy showers and thunderstorms particularly across the northwest, ale and heavy rain possible. more rain to come across the south south—east of england, scotland and northern ireland, mild nights to come. 14 or 15 degrees. some hail and heavy rain possible for a time. also some more rain to come across parts of the south—east of england and for scotland and northern ireland too. a mild night to come with all the cloud and the outbreaks of showery rain, 14 or 15 degrees. tomorrow should be something of an improving day. we still got some rain across parts of scotland and eastern england. heavy showers for parts of yorkshire and lincolnshire, but the weather improving from the south and south—west. more sunshine for northern ireland, wales and southern england where temperatures will be a little bit warmer than they have been, up to about 23 degrees or so.

slightly cooler, 17 or 18 for scotland with cloud and outbreaks of rain. it should remain fairly unsettled in the north—west, so some showers for edinburgh and belfast in the outlook. should be drier though towards the south—east and things are warming up. bye for now. the headlines: police are treating a shooting in manchester's moss side area as attempted murder after 10 people, including two children, were wounded. none of the injuries are thought to be life—threatening. nasa's daring solar probe mission has successfully launched from cape canaveral in florida after the launch was called off yesterday. the mission will analyse the sun's atmosphere for the first time. the afghan army is joined by more british troops in kabul in a move which raises the uk military presence in the country to over a thousand. family members of the 29 people killed in the 0magh bombing attend a memorial service, 20 years on from the car bomb attack in the country tyrone town. sport, and for a full round up from the bbc sport centre, including that cricket,

here's chris mitchell. excitment in the cricket and the european championships to come. but first liverpool have started their premier league season with an impressive win over west ham with mo salah opening the scoring.. three matches in the premier league today, the champions manchester city are into the second—half at arsenal three matches in the premier league today, the champions manchester city are into the second—half at arsenal and southampton and burnley played out a goaless draw but there were plenty of goals at anfield as adam wild reports. at at anfield as adam wild reports. anfield, the fans having at anfield, the fans singing of having hope in their hearts, some yea rs having hope in their hearts, some years since those hopes have been higher. there is a real belief that this liverpool side now has what it ta kes to this liverpool side now has what it takes to challenge the very best, in the first half, they had more than enough for west ham, mosul dam aims the source of much of that optimism.

—— mohamed salah. sadio mane scoring a second before half—time. such a lead was more than they —— such a lead was more than they —— such a lead was more than they —— such a lead was no more than they deserve. this was a disappointing return for west ham united after heavy investment. sadio mane was quite possibly offside, but his finish was as emphatic as the scoreline was becoming, such is their confidence, mosul dam was substituted. —— mohamed salah. far tougher tests lie ahead, those liverpool by hopes have grown a little more. we played as good as possible today, the extent of a really good preseason in the premier league season. that is the plan. it is not finished for a lot of players, we still have to have the rest of the season. it was good. not surprisingly good, but better than i

could have expected. we knew before the game, i knew it was going to be difficult, not only, the first game away, against liverpool, but in the first five or six games we play four of the big teams. but we recognise that liverpool played better than us. little to get excited about at st mary's where southampton and burnley played out a goalless draw but saints' manager was happy with what he saw, especially in the second half. i made a change personnel wise early in the second half and that paid off, shane getting as high off the pitch, we controlled the second half. move them about more than we we re half. move them about more than we were able to in the first half, we really had a number of chances in the second half to win the game. 0verall, please with our first

outing against 18 that is ahead of us outing against 18 that is ahead of us in competitive action. well—deserved point, our giggly one in which we could have turned it into all free in the first 60 or 70 minutes. —— arguably. shifting the team in different styles and different play. lots of good passages and openings. now and again, you need a marginal decision, maybe. here's the latest then and confirmation of the results. a win for liverpool, southampton and burnley draw and now, manchester city beating arsenal 2—0. steven gerrard's unbeaten run at rangers continues. the former liverpool captain saw his side get their first premiership win of the season easing to a win over st mirren. 2—0 it finished, st mirren were down to 10 men,

ross mccrorie sent off. in the day's other game stjohnstone nd hibs drew 1—1. england are on the brink of taking a 2—0 series lead over india. they need just 4—wickets to win. earlier england declared on 396 for 7. patrick geary has the latest: for the first half hour, they took their runs however they can, urgent not elegant, time ticking on, rain getting closer, when sam curran took one risk to many, joe root called them in, england declared time to bowl. india went out into the storm. murali vijay has not managed to run off the bat in the match, he became 100 wicket forjimmy anderson at lord's, facing him in these conditions is a bats and's room 101, rahul was the next two exit, india needed shelter, it came from the rain again. but only for a while, when they got back out, stuart broad

carried england's second wind, first, ajinkya rahane, and then, pyjama, no assistance required. england's captain would have to carry their team. he had a bad back, called by ollie devoto on —— pajara. his debut. —— india's captain would have to carry their team. now on a hat—trick. could not complete it, india's chances all but over, anderson did what anderson does, and england may not have to wait much longer. studio: indeed, it may not be long at all, england need only one more wicket, as you can see, 129-9, one more wicket, as you can see, 129—9, india, at the moment, gloomy at lord's, they play on there. mixed fortunes for britain's gymnasts at the european championships.

primarily for its beauty. we know it for the terrible siege which ended with more than 10,000 people losing their lives in the 1990s. for three—and—a—half years, bosnian serbs rained rockets down on the city. a quarter of a century later the scars are still visible. this used to be a holiday inn and it's where the world's press was stationed during the siege. it became a symbol of the war, and you might remember its distinctive yellow cladding on the outside, which has been kept to this day. the hotel has only just changed hands. it has had extensive renovation work and recently reopened under a different name. you would never know that for years, it was subject to frequent shelling and gunfire.

normally, you might pay extra for a beautiful view of these hills, but for that very same reason it was one of the most dangerous spots to be in this hotel. artillery fire was being blasted from the top of those hills and actually lit this building on fire above the fifth floor multiple times. i am given a tour by hajro. during the war, he ran catering for the journalists stationed here. these days he's the executive director. can you tell us what role the hotel played during the war? and the hotel went through some

recent renovations and the average person walking in would not see anything that reminded them of the war? hajro is very keen to emphasise how the hotel is looking forward to the future these days. but it isn't the only bosnian icon getting a shiny makeover.

this long—abandoned cable car network finally reopened just a few months ago. it had been out of use since the war began. this is one of the old cable cars, built for the olympics in 1984. it was left abandoned and fell into ruin during the siege, but they still have one here on display. ajla here is deeply in love with sarajevo, and she has agreed to take me up into the hills. so you can see all of sarajevo, every little bit? everything, all of its glory and beauty. the renovation of the cable car seems like a big deal for the city. yes, it is. it is a symbol of the city, lots of people like that from the city centre you could go up

the mountain in ten minutes, enjoy the fresh air, beautiful nature, and then, again, you are in the heart of the old town. the hills up here were positions for serbian snipers and for artillery. there is a perfect view of most of sarajevo. only in recent times have the landmines been cleared, but you can still see the odd military bunker. once at the top, there is one more repurposed relic. the bobsled track. built for sarajevo's moment in the sun, the winter olympics in 1984. it has been richly decorated, and the colour and nature up here makes a wonderful ride. ready, not so steady. i think i might need more practice at this. we did quite a slow version, i think. you pick up speed really fast.

that's the whole point, right? it is supposed to be a bobsled shooting down this. yeah, in the war it was a shelter for the serbian army, that they used to shoot the city and everything. so unfortunately it had that sad purpose. but i think we remade things, to repaint it and everything, to make it morejoyful. with interesting activities like this do you think it is a step away from the memories of the war? yes, definitely. i think people are urging to go forward, not to think any more about war, to have a normal life, to have a decent life, in the 1920s and 30s, le touquet, on france's north coast was the glitzy destination of choice for wealthy british socialites. the birth of the jet age and longhaul travel means it has been overlooked ever since.

but now innovations in flight sharing could put it back on your radar. we sent cat moh to try it out. just outside of london, not far from heathrow, is blackbushe airport. this isn't quite what i was expecting, but i'm told this is the airport. hi, paul. hi, cat, how are you? good. lovely sunny day. hardly any wind, as you can see the windsock is completely pointing downwards. it should be a very smooth flight. i'm sharing a flight with paul. he got his private pilot's license 25 years ago. i don't know how you can fit four people. two in the front, two in the back. it's quite simple. oh my goodness. this is tiny. i found paul through a website, wingly, think uber of the skies, sort of. you pick a date, destination, request a seat, and pay. it's one of a number of flight sharing platforms out there flying between general aviation airfields, which are often closer to town so i've chosen a day trip to le touquet in france. we are in the air. like a flying car. my god. what do you love about flying? i love getting out.

i love the freedom. you get to fly to little airports in the middle of nowhere that would not normally get to go to. paul's dayjob is in it. being able to share flights helps to pay for this rather expensive hobby and keep his flying hours up. the cost is a major thing. so we get to fly at a third or a quarter of the costs we normally do because we split that with our passengers. how do you work out how much to charge passengers? there are only certain costs we can include, the hire of the plane, the fuel, landing fees, things like that, not fixed costs, but they get divided by the number of passengers in the plane. because you are not allowed to make any money out of this, are you? no, i'm not a commercial pilot, so i'm not allowed to make any profit. so i pay for this flight the same as you are. my plane seat cost £150,

but unlike a commercial flight it's very weather dependent and could have been cancelled at a moment's notice if paulfelt it wasn't safe to fly. flying over the channel now, french radio signals are coming through. welcome to france. yay! my legs definitely feel a bit wobbly. i tell you what, i'm glad i didn't have breakfast this morning. le touquet was once a busy international hub, but now you need a private plane to fly here, so flight sharing is a great way to visit without blowing the budget. plus the airport is practically in town, so all you need is a bike, once you clear customs, of course. pilot paul to tour guide paul. ready to go? i think so. i have got to remember which side of the road to be on. yes.

it's a quiet seaside town on france's northern opal coast. the majority of visitors these days are french with some internationals. but that has not always been the case. the town is now a mix of old british charm and french leisure, with hints of its bygone days. this 116—year—old chocolate shop is an institution here. confession time, i may have gotten carried away in there. but it smelled so good. but all good things come to an end. we have to be back before sunset because the airfield in britain has no runway lights to land. it looks like we made itjust in time. this is the scene taken by one of our weather watchers. fairly thick

grey clouds, producing more rainfall as we head through the rest of the afternoon and into the evening, for the week ahead, rather unsettled in the week ahead, rather unsettled in the north and the west in particular, breezy and showery. best weather expected through the south—east. here and now, satellite radar showing where we have had the rain over the past few hours will stop scotland, eastern england, and heavy showers into the west. into the evening, showers and thunderstorms for north—west england, wales, down towards the south—west of england, heavy showers, heavy rain falling in a short space of time means surface water. more rain across the southeast and east anglia through the course of the night. fairly cloudy and mild for most of us overnight, temperatures holding at 14, 15 degrees. starting the new working week, low pressure still in charge, high pressure here across the azores, noting its way in across the azores, noting its way in across

the uk, weather fronts the azores, noting its way in across the uk, weatherfronts lingering. another fairly cloudy picture on monday, with some outbreaks of rain across parts of scotland, not particularly heavy but slow—moving. down towards the likes of yorkshire and lincolnshire, hail, thunder, heavy downpours of rain lightly here. further towards the south and south—west, high—pressure in charge, more sunshine than we have seen today, improved picture for wales and south—west england, 23 degrees, should be largely dry. fast forward to tuesday, next front moves in. into the west, bringing rain, into the north—west of england. more likely to stay dry through the day on tuesday, temperatures will be moving up by a degree or two. highs of around 26 celsius, 18 to 22 across scotland and northern ireland on tuesday. looks like we will continue to see low pressure in the north and north—west, bringing showers to the likes of edinburgh and belfast, mostly dry, sunny spells for cardiff and london, after

a warm middle part of the week, it will turn cooler later in the week. this is bbc news i'm shaun ley. the headlines at six. police in manchester say a shotgun was likely used in a shooting in the city's moss side area last night — ten people, including two childern, sustained pellet—type injuries. we're launching an investigation, which is investigating attempt murder. and it would be obvious to anybody discharging a firearm in a crowded place such as this, many people were going to become injured. three, two, one, zero... liftoff. nasa's ambitious mission to the sun launches from cape canaveral, 24 hours after its launch was cancelled due to a last—minute hitch. hundreds of british troops arrive in kabul to support the afghan army in their conflict with the taliban.
