so, djokovic is on court now against philipp kohlschreiber. not easy but he should win. they are followed by naomi osaka and then it's time for kyle edmund. tomorrow we will see a host of british players not to mention ash barty, roger federer and rafa nadal. no andy murray in the singles as he continues to recover from hip surgery, but we will see him in the doubles. david, thank you. lovely weather down there in south london. will it continue? it looks like it is going to behave itself in the week ahead as well, unbelievably! are weather watchers have been showing us the contrasts in the weather today. western coasts looking more like this with thicker cloud. sheltered southern and eastern coasts, rather more like

this. seeing blue skies across hastings. you can see that very clearly when we take a look at our satellite picture. thicker cloud here is the remnants of a weather front but a lot of fine weather to be had across the uk, as high pressure builds. we had high pressure builds. we had high pressure last week but it was to the east. this week it is towards the west so we are bringing in airfrom the north west. a keen north—westerly breeze at the moment. instead of pulling that warm air up from the continent, we are feeding it in from the atlantic, back with more average values for our temperatures. for many, perhaps a more comfortable story. this afternoon, showers drifting out of northern ireland into northern england and northern wales. a few for scotland as well. but essentially a dry story with sunny spells, temperatures in the high teens to low 20s. through the evening and overnight, that front continues to fizzle away, a few more showers possible for scotland but clear skies for the majority. lows of eight to 12 typically, perhaps as cool as five or six in rural parts

of wales. perhaps a better night's sleep to get us into tuesday morning. then i largely fine day ahead, all thanks to high pressure. the wind later on tuesday, still quite keen across scotland. sunny spells for almost all areas but again northern and western coasts getting some slightly thicker and more persistent cloud. that's our story as we set up for the start of wimbledon. high pressure dominating and keeping things fair, we are set foran and keeping things fair, we are set for an unbroken day of play on tuesday, temperatures in the low 20s. for the rest of the week, the high still with us but low pressure will still get close to the north on thursday and friday. some fronts drifting into scotland, some rain for a drifting into scotland, some rain fora time, drifting into scotland, some rain for a time, perhaps heavy across scotland. at high pressure always keen to establish itself across the uk. nothing significantly wet through the week ahead for the uk. on wednesday, a bit more cloud to the north, plenty of sunshine in the

south. temperatures perhaps 23 or 2a by the time we get ince to wednesday and thursday but nothing like that crippling heat some of us had last week. looking further ahead, still a lot of fine weather, that rain in the north for thursday and friday but for the weekend, set fair, perhaps more cloud and the temperatures tailing off. at a pretty quiet story. a reminder of our main story this lunchtime. protestors try to storm the main government building in hong kong, as police clash with thousands of protestors on the anniversary of the handover to china. that's it. so it's goodbye from me. now on bbc one, let'sjoin our news teams where you are. have a very good afternoon. good afternoon, it'sjust after 1.30pm and here's your latest sports news...

wimbledon is under way. we've already had a british victory and now the defending men's champion has got things started on centre court. john watson is there to keep us up to date throughout the fortnight. john, let's start with that win earlier for heather watson. yes, a big victory for heather watson, one of two british players in action on the opening day of the wimbledon championships. she came through in straight sets against caty mcnally from the us, she won the first set on a tie—break 7—6 before winning the second 16—2. watson playing courtesy of a wildcard, one of six wildcards that have been handed out to british players this year at wimbledon. she has had three progressions through to the third round previously and she is the first british player into the second round this year. giving the second round this year. giving the wimbledon faithful something to cheer on the opening day.

more home interest later — what hope for british number one, kyle edmund? i think he will feel confident, not least because the player he is playing, jaume munar of spain, has never won a professional match at any never won a professional match at a ny level never won a professional match at any level on grass and that will certainly count in the favour of kyle edmund. he is finding some form on grass, he reached the semifinals of eastbourne coming into these championships, losing to taylor fritz, and at times in that match looked like he was going to win. and as we know, he has progressed to the third round of wimbledon previously and that will act as a boost. he has not been beyond that and we know that we he has has previous success at other grand slams. in the absence of andy murray in the singles this year, all of andy murray in the singles this yea r, all eyes of andy murray in the singles this year, all eyes will be on him, he is the british number one and that brings extra pressure on his shoulders this year. you do not change how you play, you don't suddenly try harder or play any

better, anywhere in the world you always try your best. but i think you learn that you must respect that when you are a professional tennis player playing at wimbledon as a brit, people will want you to do well and you will have more eyes on you. and you have to learn to cope with that and embrace it. and that is something that you learn and i have got better with that throughout the years. what else is there to look forward to on the opening day? well, we have novak djokovic against philipp kohlschreiber at the moment, the defending champion opening on centre court. the most interesting match is last on court no one later. 15—year—old cory garth against venus williams who at 39 years old, 2a yea rs williams who at 39 years old, 2a years separate these two. gough came to in qualifying, the youngest player to reach the draw in

wimbledon. and worth pointing out as well that before her final qualifying match was setting a science test. it just qualifying match was setting a science test. itjust illustrates where she is at currently in her tennis career, there are different to venus williams who has won seven grand slam titles and she won four of those before her opponent was even born. that is the last match on court no one today. —— gauff. even born. that is the last match on court no one today. -- gauff. thank you for that, john. frank lampard looks to be close to returning to chelsea as manager. the derby boss has been excused from returning for pre—season today, and the championship club say they're stepping up efforts to find a replacement for him. at the cricket world cup today a match between two sides aiming to finish positively but with no chance of a semi—final place. sri lanka are batting against west indies in durham.... and they've had the better of things so far. opener thisara perera scored a half century,

as has avishka fernando, who remains not out. how about this for a catch from the windies' fabien allen to get rid of kusal mendis?! despite that moment of brilliance, sri lanka appear well placed on 231 for 3 with around 11 overs left. that's all the sport for now. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website. that's bbc.co.uk/sport. many thanks, steve, thank you for that. the sister of a muslim woman killed in a so—called honour killing, in the uk, has told the bbc that she wants to campaign against these crimes. in 2006, 20—year—old banaz mahmod was killed on the orders of her father and uncle when she left her unhappy marriage and started a relationship with another man. in the first television interview, her sister payzee mahmod says she want to break the silence surrounding honour based violence. she spoke to our

reporter poonam taneja. precious memories of her adored sister banaz mahmod. we were very, very close. we would often you know, get in trouble together and go through the good times together. we were pretty inseparable growing up. we would always tell people we were twins because we had quite a small gap in age between us. her parents were iraqi kurds, who, along with their six children, made their home in london. we were quite a close family essentially. we were quite a close family. there was a lot of us, so there was always something going on, always something to do. somebody, you know, to do something with. but that happiness came to an abrupt end. in 2005, banaz left her unhappy marriage and started a relationship with another man, rahmat sulemani. her father and uncle believed she had brought shame on herfamily and ordered men to kill her. she was strangled and her body dumped in a suitcase.

since then, the only way i could describe the last 13 years, it's just been practically hell. banaz mahmod had sought police help five times before her murder. an independent police review found that she'd been let down by police. i'm not quite sure what else the police needed to have helped banaz. what else would they have needed? would they have needed banaz to go and arrest the people herself? she went there with a list of names. you know, for me, it's something i can't, i don't know how to move past. after banaz‘s murder, police said officers would be trained to deal with similar cases. years after banaz‘s killing, her sister payzee struggles to understand why this happened. losing ba naz, it just doesn't make sense. it's why she is speaking out.

sorry. we never talk about what happened. and i think that's part of the problem. because the moment you choose to ignore actually what happened and not talk about it, you will never get past it. and 13 years on, we still haven't had that conversation. she wants to campaign against these crimes and prevent others from being killed. poonam taneja, bbc news. ten people have been killed after a plane crashed into a hangar at an airfield in texas. witnesses said the aircraft took off and suffered an engine failure before crashing at the airfield in addison. officials said the plane was privately owned. japan has resumed commercial whaling for the first time in decades, after officially withdrawing from the international whaling commission yesterday.

five whaling vessels sailed from the northern port of kushiro. japan plans to hunt more than two—hundred whales between now and late december. authorities in sudan say seven people have been killed and nearly 200 injured during renewed protests in several cities. tens of thousands of people took to the streets to keep up the pressure on the country's interim military rulers to hand power over to a civilian administration. the protests on sunday were the largest since a deadly raid by security forces on a protest camp outside the defence ministry, three weeks ago. gareth barlow has more. the rallies across several cities were the largest since dozens were killed in a crackdown at the start ofjune. despite troops being deployed and tear gas being fired, protesters continue to demand the ruling military council hands power to a civilian—led administration. translation: i felt the blood

boiling in my veins so i had to come out tonight, i had to march, i had to march for everyone killed, i had to march for the martyrs that died, march for the girls that were raped, had to march to do something, anything. translation: i want to give a message to the military council. if you don't stop the nonsense, we won't leave you and we will take our rights back. but the military claimed they had to intervene during sunday's protest to deal with an unidentified threat. translation: now, in front of the military medical centre and from the youth centre, there are snipers shooting at people. they have shot three members of the security forces and maybe five or six civilians. this is now. that is why we were upset and trying to get things under control. those claims strongly rejected by protesters still mourning those killed in the military crackdown four weeks ago. translation: the military council

must fall because it only brought us martyrs. we celebrated with the sound of bullets and with the blood of our martyrs. despite an internet blackout and security forces blocking bridges, sunday's protests were the biggest since the military took power. a display of strength by the people, another challenge to the ruling authorities. gareth barlow, bbc news. a russian—made missile has hit northern cyprus after apparently going astray during an airstrike in syria. authorities say a preliminary investigation showed the missile was part of an air defence system. no—one was hurt, but the impact set hills ablaze and was heard for miles around. serena williams is chasing her 24th grand slam title, and on tuesday she returns to wimbledon, with hopes of becoming champion for the eighth time. she's spoken to sally nugent about overcoming injury, motherhood, and her royal friendship

that's how it kind of starts and, for me, i do have a voice that i can use and how do i use that in a positive way? on your instagram, yourjob title is olympia's mum. how has becoming a mother changed you? becoming a mom, it's changed my perspective on a lot of things and also it's changed me in terms of wanting to leave a legacy, i want to be this positive person for my daughter and ijust want always to just — everything i do i want to do it for my daughter and i never obviously had that motivation before. you seem to have the parenting thing totally down. i totally do not. i'm a mess. how are you a mess? ijust put on some concealer and i'm here. that's what we all do! and i'm pretending that everything's fine. do you want to make things maybe different to how they were for you growing up? i think parents nowadays are like, oh, we want this, we want our kids to do this and we want this and we want this, but, well, we didn't turn out that bad so, you know, i'm definitely going to incorporate a lot of stuff

that my parents did with me. i had a really good environment growing up and i loved having sisters around. i can't provide that for olympia just right now. yet! who knows? yet. have you had any chance to talk to your friend meghan markle about maybe giving some parenting advice or pass on some words of wisdom? i never pass on words of wisdom because i think everybody who has a kid, especially when you just have a baby, it is so difficult tojust be. that's the truth. it's just like get through the first three months and four months and then we can talk. what motivates you now? what gets you out of bed, what gets you into the gym and onto the court? i don't want to not play tennis. i love doing what i do, but i don't want to not do it at the best level that i can. so if i go out on the court and i'm not training as hard as i want to, it's just not going to work out for me, so that's my motivation. looking ahead into this tournament, how do you feel physically?

do you feel right there and ready? i feel good now. it's been a rough time for me this year, but i'm finally at a place where like, oh, my god, i'm not in pain, oh, my god, let's do this! this is a good place for me to be at. so you feel not in pain physically, ready to go? yes, and i couldn't be more excited about it so now i'm just happy. sally nugent talking to serena williams. you may have heard that awful story about that pregnant women who died in a knife attack at the weekend. a29—year—old man who was arrested on suspicion murdering her, he has now been released on bail. the 26—year—old woman died in the knife attack at home in croydon

cartel meeting in vienna. saudi arabia, russia and iraq backed an extension of supply cuts for another six to nine months. opec has been reducing oil output since 2017 to prevent prices from sliding amid a weakening global economy and soaring us output. beauty is big business. the industry is thought to be worth around £28 billion in the uk. the biggest spend is on hair services — around £6 billion — while people spent more than £3 billion on cosmetics last year. the beauty sector accounts for 600,000 jobs. ma nufa ctu rers a re co nsta ntly updating and introducing more evironmentally—friendly and ethical products, as consumers become more aware of their impact on the planet. millie kendal is chief executive of the british beauty council.

is the trent people spending more, less or the same? it is highly visible on the high street, i think we are spending more, it is accessible, there is an upward trend in spending on beauty. millions of pounds were spent last year, pretty highi pounds were spent last year, pretty high i think, 53.2 pounds were spent last year, pretty high i think, £3.2 billion in total. there are more ethically sourced ingredients, cutting back on the use of plastic, how is it doing on that front? i think we are under pressure but we are nimble and innovative, so i think we will make great strides, consumers are putting pressure on the industry and the industry is responding. if you look at some of the companies that are british—based that are smaller, they are putting pressure is on the larger organisations as well, i don't think there is a real trend and move toward sustainability. what do you

think the biggest challenges are that face the industry right now? education in our industry, we had 65,000 people come through vocational training last year. i would love to see those turn into jobs. and i think we need to look at higher education in the beauty industry. in orderfor us higher education in the beauty industry. in order for us to higher education in the beauty industry. in orderfor us to be sustainable, we need to teach people how to produce packaging that is non—plastic. in order to do that, we need packaging technologist, and that requires an education. so i think we need to look at higher education in a beauty, we need to manage the workflow ofjobs, sustainability is also very high on oui’ sustainability is also very high on our agenda. and when you look at the industry overall, what do you think the strongest and weakest parts of it are at the moment? well, the wea kest it are at the moment? well, the weakest part is a reputation, we are co nsta ntly weakest part is a reputation, we are constantly seen as being frivolous and not taken very seriously, but if

you look at our valuation, it is a viable commodity, beauty. the best thing about us, i think we are a force for good. it is a positive industry and i think we make people feel better. and, you know, i think that story needs to be ours, the benefit of beauty, it is a great attribute, i think. 0k, benefit of beauty, it is a great attribute, ithink. 0k, millie kendall, so much more we could talk about, the men's industry as well. but we will need to leave it for another time. yes, it is absolutely booming. thank you. in other business stories we've been following, network rail wants to buy part of british steel, which was put into compulsory liquidation in may after running out of money. network rail is the state—owned railway infrastructure company. it has bid for british steel's rail services business which welds, finishes and stores rails for the uk's train network.

at the stonewall inn. a smaller unofficial march has also been held. its organisers claim to represent the true spirit of the gay rights movement. our lgbt correspondent ben hunte sent us this report from manhattan. new york has always been a major destination for lgbt pride festivals, but this weekend's events were their biggest yet. while a message of inclusion and equality could be felt across the city, there have been two duelling pride parades marching through the streets. one with huge floats, major corporate sponsors and millions of people lining the streets. the other taking a completely stripped—back approach, that many would not even recognise as a modern lgbt pride parade. chanting. the team behind it, reclaim pride, were protesting the commercialisation of pride with home—made banners, political chanting and a rally in central park. what we are seeing is they're co—opting this very important activist holiday as a corporate

platform for profits. we want to return it to its roots, which was a protest march put on by activists in the wake of the 1969 stonewall riots. so, has pride become too commercial? virgin ceo sir richard branson doesn't think it matters. i think it's a start in the right direction. i don't think — i think they are better than the companies that are doing nothing. whilst people debate whether pride has lost its message, it is worth remembering that neither of this weekend's pride events here would be welcome in several cities in the united states and in many countries across the world. ben hunte, bbc news, new york. now it's time for a look at the weather.
