is more important than ever. but it seems they are succeeding, a seven match unbeaten run certainly helps. a reminder of our top story, england are ina a reminder of our top story, england are in a winning position against india in the final test at the oval. alistair cooke, signing off with a century. that's all from sportsday. more now on the inquests into the deaths of the five people killed in the westminster bridge attack in march last year. the coroner has described how the lives of many were "torn apart". let's speak to our home affairs correspondent daniel sandford at the old bailey. how harrowing has it been for those
6:53 pm
involved? there were some calm moments in court, for example when the footage was shown of kurt cochran and his wife melissa just before the attack. you see two tourists walking across westminster bridge enjoying the sunshine in no way any normal tourist would, just in the moments before the attack. apart from that, the rest of the day has been exceptionally harrowing. we have seen the cctv footage of the car going across the bridge, victims being thrown into the air and you can see one of the victims being pushed under the wheels of a boss. it has been a difficult day, and for the relatives, they chose to leave the relatives, they chose to leave the court and they didn't want to watch the most difficult footage. which included when the attacker stabbed to death pc keith palmer. the day began in an emotional way
6:54 pm
and each relative was asked to paint and each relative was asked to paint a portrait of the person who died. some of them chose to read them themselves and that led to a lot of tea rs themselves and that led to a lot of tears in the courtroom and in some cases lots of tears on witness stand. it has set the scene for what is going to be an inquest looking at theissues is going to be an inquest looking at the issues around what happened that day. what are the key issues that will be scrutinised in the coming days? there are some obvious one, why did he do it, did the police and mis why did he do it, did the police and mi5 know much about him, whether there was some warning signs they missed. but other issues coming to the fore today. a lot of questions from some of the lawyers around the production of pedestrians on westminster bridge. it is likely to develop over the coming days as to why was it after nice and berlin in
6:55 pm
2016, why wasn't the protection of pedestrians on a busy tourist area in the heart of london, why wasn't the protection there from vehicles going out of control. also the positioning of the armed officers in westminster. when pc pama goes to defend the guaita parliaments, the two armed officers are not anywhere him. it is a close protection officer that eventually kills massoud. i think that is going to be another issue for this inquest. daniel, thank you very much indeed. companies are selling vehicle number plates
6:56 pm
without carrying out proper checks, according to a bbc investigation. it means the real owners can face fines or even be arrested when vehicles with their number plates are involved in crime. jonathan gibson reports. adam has a problem with parking tickets — someone else's parking tickets. he's received more than £1,000 in fines meant for a driver who has copied his numberplate. i'm kind of scared that someone will commit a bigger crime in using a car with my licence plate on it and i'm going to have police show up on my doorstep to arrest me. tia is another car cloning victim who thought she was about to be arrested when police surrounded her car on the motorway. they started asking me how long i'd had my carfor, where i got it from. am either registered keeper. at that point, they then said the numberplates had been used to commit burglaries. no—one knows how many cars are on the road. the police and dvla don't record numbers. but it is a significant problem.
6:57 pm
that's why anyone who sells numberplates has to be dvla registered and follow strict rules, which include asking to see id and the logbook. but not all dealers are doing that. fantastic, mate, brilliant. james sells plates through the post, but i've come to collect them. everyone is asking for documents these days, it's ridiculous. you have do have the log and stuff like that. do you? james knows the law, but he's choosing to ignore it, which means when i make two further visits, he also supplies plates without seeing documents. and he's not alone. i also buy plates from two other dealers. car—cloning victim adam is not impressed. it is shocking, because they know they should have the log book. they're sort of accessories to the crime. they shouldn't be in thatjob, or they shouldn't be allowed to print licence plates. it's that simple, really. but willjames the dealer see it that way? hi, james, john gibson from the bbc. i'd like to talk to you
6:58 pm
