down into quite so chilly, down into single figures, double digits further north. as we go on to thursday, scotland, northern england and northern ireland will see cloud and outbreaks of rain, the rain most persistent across western parts of scotland. eastern scotland seeing a little bit of brightness and further south across england and wales we will see some spells of sunshine. the wind is relatively light, certainly compared with further north—west, and those temperatures beginning to climb. 20 in aberdeen, 20 in london, and as we get on in the thursday, southern areas are likely to have their warmest day of the week. perhaps a bit of mist penfold to start, but then we will see some spells of sunshine. however, we will see some extra cloud into northern ireland, pushing southwards across scotland as well. some patchy rain behind that band of cloud. we get back into the cooler air. ahead of it, temperatures in the south—east corner could get to 22 or 23 degrees. however, as we move out of thursday into friday, that band of cloud and very patchy rain at this stage will continue to

sink south and east was. high pressure builds back in from the west, so it is looking largely dry to end the working week, but behind that cold front we get back into some cold air. so we are essentially back to where we started, with so much cooler days. temperatures about 14 to 17 much cooler days. temperatures about 111 to 17 degrees. there will be some spells of sunshine around, but also some chilly nights with the potential was amiss than fog patches at times. and then as we head into the start of next week, well, high pressure still look set to be in charge of the weather. but if the higher remainsjust charge of the weather. but if the higher remains just to the west of the uk, which is where we expected to remain for much of the time, that will continue to bring us could pulses of cooler air at times. —— cooler air. don't expect much in the way of a heatwave is going to next week. it does look generally dry. quite a bit of sunshine but with those clear skies by night, chilly conditions and patchy mist and fog, a lwa ys conditions and patchy mist and fog, always the potential for some breezy weather across the north. so an autumn chill at times through the week ahead. hello. this is bbc news with rachel schofield. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow

mornings papers in a moment. first, the headlines. the prime minister is to meet president trump in new york on wednesday, where they are expected to discuss brexit and a bilateral trade deal. the sheer to ministers to hold their nerve over brexit negotiations with the eu. -- nerve over brexit negotiations with the eu. —— she told her ministers. labour has come under increasing pressure to clarify its position on a possible new referendum on brexit. new guidance from the government has warned that airline and coach passengers travelling to the eu could face disruption in the event of a no—deal brexit. a public inquiry begins into the contaminated blood scandal which is estimated to have killed nearly 3,000 people since the 1970s. the father of a teenage girl who died after a severe allergic reaction tells an inquest how she pleaded for help before losing consciousness. hello and welcome to our look ahead

to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are james rampton, features writer at the independent, and baroness newlove, victims' commissioner and conservative peer. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. theresa may has avoided a threatened rebellion from brexiteer ministers and got her cabinet to agree to support her chequers plan, writes the times. the daily telegraph leads withjohn mcdonnell‘s speech at the labour party conference, and warnings from business leaders that the party's plans to renationalise companies could usher in an economic ‘deep freeze‘. north american companies went on a dealmaking spree worth $50 billion today, says the financial times,

despite a pending trade war and uncertainty over the us mid—term elections. the metro has a story we've been covering today, the start of the public—inquiry into the contaminated blood scandal. the paper labels it the ‘biggest tragedy ever in the nhs‘. customers are losing up to £imillion a day in bank transfer scams, according to the daily mail, citing new figures which reveal the scale of what the paper calls a ‘fraud epidemic‘. and among other stories we‘ll be discussing, the guardian has a picture of the doctor who cast at the launch of the latest series, starring jodie whittaker as the first female doctor. let‘s kick off with the times, helen. a lovely picture of meghan markle holding a ball, but we will move to the left, it is about holding your nerve on brexit. or dropping the ball! laughter. moving

oi'i... dropping the ball! laughter. moving on... yes, hold your nerve. the pm has had a meeting at cabinet and has told them to hold their nerve stop it within reading this, it looks like it is about the high skilled and low skilled workers and it feels very much like an australia and models. this actually, she will present it to conference next week and downing street said it should make it easier for high skilled, rather than low skilled workers, to come to britain. —— australian model. however, there is concerned about the low skilled because they doa lot, about the low skilled because they do a lot, farmers, agriculture, there is also the hotels and everything like that. we have got to protect them, they do a tremendous amount of work. according to whitehall, that will be looked at. no binding agreements to stop. hopefully we will see what the full detail of it is, it is amazing to

see that philip hammond did not like it at first. let's see what happens. she is trying to get everybody in line, not just she is trying to get everybody in line, notjust on the big picture chequers deal, on the whole issue of immigration and how that might look post—brexit. immigration and how that might look post-brexit. it is a greatjuggling act that she has achieved today. however, whether europe, which last week said it was rejecting chequers pretty much wholeheartedly anyway, what they would say to that, i don‘t know. it is all very well getting the tory party in line, which is a huge task in itself. but goodness me, selling it to europe is a desert —— different matter. there is an interesting part at the bottom, of latest issues facing businesses in a no deal scenario, admitting flights could be grounded and ports deadlocked. this is the doomsday scenario. there is a ps, pets would have to register with vets for months before travelling to europe. we all love animals in this country

and that will cause a huge amount of ke rfuffle and that will cause a huge amount of kerfuffle if that happens. people like that passport, the ability to move backwards and forwards at. that is why it was produced. if that becomes hard, people will think that one of the things that brexiteers told us would be that leaving the eu cut down on redtape, this would suggest it brings more. this is another one of the departmental briefings, saying that if there was ano briefings, saying that if there was a no deal this is what might be potentially the impact. the focus today was travel and transport. just come back to the hold your nerve, theresa may basically trying to keep everybody on track with chequers at. what is your feeling, essentially as a tory peer about how likely she is able to code the line? we know that as james was able to code the line? we know that asjames was saying, able to code the line? we know that as james was saying, brussels that we are not interested in chequers, that will not work for us and she is determined to stick to the plan. she

isa determined to stick to the plan. she is a determined woman, determined as home secretary. for brussels, when she goes, the ability to these conversations, but at the end of the day she has called the cabinet meeting, brexiteers were up and down and remainers up and down. i think it is poignant to lick at this skilled workers and the low skilled workers, especially for the industry because that is where it is going to affect. as we can see, economy and airways. is a good suggestion but the detail and obviously they feel these discussions at. we have got to stay strong together because we don't want the general election. actually, the present —— the opposition party is in for a as well. we need to start leading and hopefully we will hear more at the conference, we do need to start leading and working together. focusing very much on the labour conference at exwick is the conservative party conference and

one wonders what kind of fireworks we might see. i think boris johnson missed the memo about party unity, the way he has been manoeuvring, jacob rees mogg has been doing a lot to stabilise the united front of the party. i do expect fireworks next week. the labour conference will be tricky but it will pale insignificance next to the tory shenanigans of next week. while you mention labour, james, on the ft we are looking at labour riskeds on show. they have their conference in liverpool and there has been all sorts of confusion about the position is on brexit. i may criticise the tories, but i equally criticise the tories, but i equally criticise labour, and equal opportunities protect. i feel criticise labour, and equal opportunities protect. ifeel labour have messed up badly. it is as though have messed up badly. it is as thoutheremy have messed up badly. it is as though jeremy corbyn have messed up badly. it is as thoutheremy corbyn has a an open goal with the government and he has run up to take a shot and he has

tripped over a fallen flat in the mud. he has completely missed this chance to soar ahead in the polls because his party, like the tories, kennett decided that the best way to deal with brexit. john mcdonald, the shadow chancellor, said this morning that he didn‘t think they would include a remain option if there we re include a remain option if there were a second referendum. this afternoon he was starkly contradict it by —— contradicted by his present secretary who said there will be a remain option. they cannot get their story straight at all. it was said, trying to sell a people‘s vote without a remain option would be likes selling a car without a reverse gear. nonsensical. it has to be an option. this issue of going back to the people is coming up with more frequency, i would say, there seems to be a what people calling for it. many resisting, saying it would be undemocratic. what is your feeling on this? ya got to be careful what you wish. if you have a

second referendum, you might not like the results, will be go for a third? you might think it is a cynical line, but it is true. it has put the divide in society. what this says here is that very much in the corbyn is going to the younger voter and not looking at the middle ground. you got to get the middle ground. you got to get the middle ground on order. the blue—collar workers. is notjust about ground on order. the blue—collar workers. is not just about the younger generation is back in everybody to come and understand topics the deep split on brexit because corbyn, many younger, urban supporters want to keep britain in the eu, while many blue—collar vote rs the eu, while many blue—collar voters back leaving. we are creating such huge divisions here, we have the older generation and the younger ones of saying what do you know? they have longer life skills, we need to be careful what we are doing, but you cannot keep changing where he. ends. you have to be

careful you don‘t exacerbate the toxic atmosphere. there was a woman, ididn‘t toxic atmosphere. there was a woman, i didn‘t agree with her, but she was within her rights to express her views on question time in the audience, but massive trolling on twitter and i uphold that. i suppose people who use the anonymity of twitter to abuse and make terrible threats against people they disagree with. it is antidemocratic and fascist. it makes me very angry. let‘s ta ke fascist. it makes me very angry. let‘s take a deep breath and move on to brexit. before steam comes out of my ears! take us to the daily mail. 1 my ears! take us to the daily mail. i million per day bank scam is preening on new. what is this about, i know you are familiar with some of theseissues i know you are familiar with some of these issues at. this is about

people authorising payments that they think are helping people or going towards helping other people in other countries, but actually it is completely nothing. it is a dark web that we don't know. we are preying on vulnerable people on their generosity and they feel they wa nt their generosity and they feel they want to help people and the fact that they have no support mechanism. it is notjust the headline, this is a virtual world that is a serious issue within our society. we have the action fraud dealing with a lot of people who are very concerned about the support when they put the phone down. we have got people committing suicide. this is a huge issue, notjust committing suicide. this is a huge issue, not just about the banks saying you authorised the payment, it isa saying you authorised the payment, it is a paper trail that we are to understand because they think their money has gone to that certain spot where they have sent it, these bank accounts are non—existent, the people are non—existent, and they can be divided across the globe. how do we make sure we get a proper support package into this? it is from every generation, young and

old. their pride is hurt, they feel stupid and how many are not reporting this? this message, it is good for the daily mail, to look into this because we have huge responsibility to protect the most vulnerable people. i will park that there because you have summarised that well. guardian, a serious story there are exclusive, alarm as rape prosecutors are urged to abandon wea k prosecutors are urged to abandon weak prosecution. a strong line on this, making allegations that are pretty tough. it is a strong and i know you will read the response from the cps. this is very, very powerful story that guardian has revealed, suggesting, i only say that they are suggesting, i only say that they are suggesting that cps might be indicating that if you drop some of the weaker cases you get the better conviction rate. we know that is a shockingly low conviction rate. this isa shockingly low conviction rate. this is a really alarming statistic, a third of rape executions against

young men bring about a prosecution. that, as a modern democratic society, we should be ashamed by that figures of. is so difficult for women to go to the police, then to testify, it is like going to the ordealfor the testify, it is like going to the ordeal for the second time. they are double punished and it has got to be made easier. the sepia suggestion, if true —— cps suggestion, if true, is not way to do it. this is an accusation the guardian says that the cps basically decided to change its approach to rape convictions, prosecutions, to improve conviction rate. they say they deny that, they say they have run workshops for prosecutors, but insists it is com pletely prosecutors, but insists it is completely untrue that that signals a change of approach. refuting what has been said in the guardian. it is an alarming story. it is very alarming because people don't understand that we have seen cases where disclosure is not then right,

the police have not done this and that. what this adds is, like james said, people not coming forward and they sit in the witness box for 2.5 hours, it feels very draconian to them, having to prove his against their word. for me, i work closely with the director of prosecutions, i intent to find out what they say and suggest. actually, as it says here, the conviction goes up 61%, is this about targets or is this about justice for people who are... that is the bit i want to look at because this does not send out on whatever gender, does not send out a positive message for people to come and report what has happened at. the whole issue of rape prosecutions is very much in the public eye. and it should be in the public eye. staying with the guardian, an interesting story at the bottom.

implants let paraplegic patients walk again. what have the scientists been up to hear? for the paraplegic patients to be able to feel they can walk again, they put 16 electrodes into the lower back to get the muscles going, and i think, you know, they have created something that they have always been told they couldn‘t walk, they couldn‘t feel their legs. the whole must be absolutely mind—boggling, and the doctors say to watch it happen must be fantastic. 0n doctors say to watch it happen must be fantastic. on twitter there was a bride and groom whether groomsmen held the grima so he could kiss his bride and the impact of that message, to see that now, i think it has to be a positive for people instead of saying you will never walk. there is an opportunity to make sure there may be able to do that again. we are often criticised asjournalists for that again. we are often criticised as journalists for harping on about the negative, but it is great that they put this very positive story on they put this very positive story on the front page, and miracle is

dreadfully overused word in journalism but i really think that applies in this case. this is an astonishing story, in that it is like one of the miracles and the bible. the halt and the lame shell walk again. hats off to these scientists. lay your hands on shoulders and they walk again, it is very moving. this is all happening in the united states, we should say. this is louisville, kentucky‘s spinal research centre. three of the patients they traded on were able to walk again, so clearly some caveats. interestingly the device was first developed for pain control, so interesting how a lot of these kind of developments come out of something a bit more mundane. to have that creativity, and for them to be able to field... you know, it must lift them up, their emotions, as well, to feel they are human again and not looked at as something that will need help from the family.

take us to the telegraph, and a lovely blue box we know very well as the tardis, two weeks and counting. asa the tardis, two weeks and counting. as a white middle—aged man myself, i am delighted that as the end of white middle—aged men in the tardis. there have been 13 already and finally the 14th doctor is a woman, andi finally the 14th doctor is a woman, and i say that is absolutely brilliant. hopefully they will find someone even more diverse to occupy the tardis, but this is a real breakthrough. i know there were certain diehard whovians, as they are called, who took off their anoraks to are called, who took off their anora ks to say are called, who took off their anoraks to say that the laws of gal —— gallifrey didn‘t allow it to be a

woman. she will be absolutely superb. and she will have three companions, so various differences happening, and she described it as the most genderless role she has ever played. i think it will be something other than a woman playing the doctor. i think we should take the doctor. i think we should take the gender of, actually. let‘sjust enjoy it for what it is. these are actors who have committed to it, and let‘s see what the new monsters are going to be. no daleks? that is a dealbreakerfor me. going to be. no daleks? that is a dealbreaker for me. and good luck to them, andl dealbreaker for me. and good luck to them, and i wish them well. and they have put it on sunday night, and they hope to have a good slot which won‘t move about too much. the aim is family friendly entertainment, long may it last. that‘s it for the papers tonight.

don‘t forget you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it‘s all there for you, seven days a week at bbc.co.uk/papers. and if you miss the programme any evening you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. thank you to james rampton and baroness newlove. and that‘s all from us tonight. good night. the third best fifa football awards have been awarded the night. luka modric was named the fifa men‘s best player of the year 2018, just one of the prizes on offer at a glittering awards ceremony in london. the women‘s world player of the year

was brazilian player marta, who won it three times between 2006 and 2010. this is herfirst world title in eight years. well, mo salah may have missed out on the best men‘s award, but he did pickd up the puskas award for goal of the year, for his strike against everton in december last year, fending off cristiano ronaldo for the trophy. good evening everyone. nothing to say much about that, but i‘m very happy and very proud. i have to thank everyone who voted for me, and looking forward to another award tonight. thank you. well, we saw one of sport‘s greatest ever comebacks last night, tiger woods ending a turbulent time both on and off the course with his first victory in five years at the season—ending tour championship. woods‘s attentions now turn to winning the ryder cup for team usa. both captains agree that his renaissance is a massive boost for the sport. the amount of attention and the buzz

around the pga championship, around the tour championship, the crowd on the... a still think of it as the night the whole, the 18th fairway yesterday, was amazing. so i think that it obviously brings... not that this event needs much more energy or that brought to it, it is probably the biggest, the grandest event in all of golf, but it will allow that much more excitement, i believe. tiger woods, for the game of golf, and him winning golf tournaments again, is something that is brilliant, and i think we all benefit from it. because in the end, whatever it is, these 24 guys are going to do this week, the game of golf needs that burst of somebody like him, that transcends the game, to the masses, needs him at the top of the game. so for everyone in golf, it is brilliant. johanna konta‘s terrible run of form has continued. the british number one has been beaten by ashleigh barty in the first round of the wuhan 0pen. konta, who has slipped to number 43

in the world rankings, was beaten in straight sets. konta has won just eight of her last 18 matches. cricket australia say they have found no new information on claims that one of their players racially abused england‘s moeen ali during the 2015 ashes. the allegation was originally investigated after the first test in cardiff, but has been re—examined after moeen wrote about it in his book. the australian board has now closed the matter. britain‘s double 0lympic silver medallist jazz carlin is taking a complete breakfrom swimming following injury and illness. the 28—year—old has struggled to find form since her success in rio and finished sixth in the commonwealth games 800m final in april. it means she will no longer be considered forfunding by the british swimming. also missing out on funding are

hannah miley and another tee, despite success this year. we have got a cold night ahead across much of england and wales, under clearer skies. a slightly different picture further north and west. you‘ve got a little bit more cloud around, and that is going to keep things somewhat mild. it will also bring some patchy rain to the far north of scotland. so here is the bigger picture, the earlier satellite picture, this stream of rain around the atlantic affecting northern ireland and western scotla nd northern ireland and western scotland but that will thin and break to allow some clear spells. clearer skies across the eastern side of scotland, the clouds starting to build from the south—west later in the night. for much of england and wales, clear skies, some patchy mist and frost and fog around. these are the temperatures in the centre of town. as for more rural areas, we could see them getting down to freezing if not the degree or so below, so we can‘t rule out a touch of air frost

in places. through tomorrow we‘ve got a good deal of dry, fine, settled weather across much of england and wales. the breeze strengthening across england and wales later in the afternoon. further south, light winds and in the sunshine temperatures getting up to 15 or 17 celsius. butjust wanted to 15 or 17 celsius. butjust wanted to the difference between the average wind speeds and outcast is which are getting stronger as we go through northern ireland, northern and western scotland. quite widely 40 to two mph, touching 60 for the western isles in the highlands of scotland, outbreaks of rain working their way eastwards. may not get across the aberdeenshire and murray, but certainly a blustery day. as we go from tuesday to wednesday with still got our area of high pressure across southern parts of england and wales. 0urfront still across southern parts of england and wales. 0ur front still from the north trying to sink its way southwards and as we go through wednesday we will see a little bit more cloud developing across the far north of england. a fairly cloudy day, but quite dry. the rain confined to the western isles and highlands of scotland. still quite easy here. these are the average

speeds. 0nce easy here. these are the average speeds. once again the gusts will be higher but further south and east, light winds and a good deal of sunshine across much of england and wales. temperatures up to 19 or 20 celsius, we might see 21 across east anglia and south—east england and even 20 across the eastern side of scotla nd even 20 across the eastern side of scotland with good spells of sunshine. as we go through wednesday and thursday, with still that our area of high pressure centres across much of england and wales. 0ur front for a time drifters weigh just further northwards before it slowly sta rts further northwards before it slowly starts to slide its way south and east through thursday and friday. by this stage, all it will be left is just a band of cloud but what we‘ll do is introduce something again. through wednesday and thursday we will see a little bit more cloud arriving in those temperatures starting to slide away. goodbye. i‘m rico hizon in singapore. the headlines: donald trump‘s supreme court choice, brett kavanaugh, says he won‘t step aside after another allegation of sexual misconduct. iam not i am not going to let false

accusations drive us out of this process , accusations drive us out of this process, and we are looking for a fair process, where i can be heard defending my integrity and my lifelong record. hopes for a second summit between north korea‘s leader kim jong—un and the us. the white house says details to be announced "pretty soon". i‘m babita sharma in london. also in the programme:
