there would be a scheme where people they responded with a quick try would be brought back to the uk. of their own, a real poachers try so they would be to continue on their from pieter—steph du toit. holidays, and the civil aviation but new zealand just managed to keep authority and the the british them at arms length and they won government would lay on flights, by 10 points in the end, essentially with different firms, to round off a morale boosting to get them back. 00:10:11,124 --> 2147483051:41:50,277 other nationalities 2147483051:41:50,277 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 have a similar scheme. victory from them. they've never lost a world cup pool match. that record continues. but south africa, if they can improve, the final will be held here in yokohama, so there is a chance that these two teams could meet again before too long. well, it was a full house here in the saporro dome for the first of the two contests here this weekend. in the end, it was australia who won against fiji by 39—21. but if you had watched the first 15 minutes or so you would have said, hey, what's going on here? tuisova and radradra, the two wingers for fiji, were really making inroads. fiji were ahead at halftime, they went further ahead just after the interval. but then will genia came into the pitch, ten or 15 minutes into the second half, the wallabies veteran, the scrum half who came off the bench, change the complexion of the game. got the line—outs working, he got them moving forward, and latu, the hooker who picked up man of the match,

scored two of those tries. in the end, it was a bonus point for the wallabies. it maybe shouldn't have been. it was a little but harsh on fiji. now, in this pool d in this contest they got to the front in the second half. they stay there. wales are also in this pool as well. so that's going to be fiji's final game. so it's all to play for still for them. they can make it through to the quarter—finals. they've only been to that stage twice in the past. for the wallabies, theyjust peak around world cup time and they peaked in the second half of this time and picked up a much—needed victory. and don't forget that the bbc sport website and app will have live text commentary from all the games at the rugby world cup starting in about an hours time with italy against namibia. the pop singer taylor swift has cancelled her performance at the melbourne cup horse racing event in australia. it comes after she was criticised by animal rights groups, who accused her of "endorsing animal abuse" by agreeing to perform at the event.

not really, no. laughter. british and nato troops joined in the drop to remember the bold plan to capture a series of bridges behind german lines. still, just a fraction of the allied troops that took part in what was the largest airborne assault in history. arnhem is the story of heroic failure. the british never managed to take the bridge. 1,500 were killed and thousands ta ken prisoner. this will probably be one of the last big events witnessed by the ever dwindling band of veterans who landed here 75 years ago. but those they came to liberate say they will never forget the sacrifices they made. 75 years later and we are here with our children, so it is important that they know, where we remember the war and everyone who fought

for us, for ourfreedom. i think it is very important. it should be remembered for many, many years. that is why we are here. it wasn't just locals, but also relatives and royalty who came to honour their bravery. along with a few surviving veterans likejothefferies, who still comes to remember the friends he lost. so many men wiped out. i couldn't believe it. there may be fewer of them with each passing year, but the dutch who they came to liberate, say they'll never be forgotten. jonathan beale, bbc news, arnhem. it is batman's anniversary. people around the world have been celebrating the 80th birthday of the caped crusader. the iconic bat symbol could be seen lighting up

the night sky in cities including barcelona, london, mexico city, and new york. the dark knight detective actually first appeared in print in march 1939 — but batman day this year happens to be in september. there you go. stay with us on bbc news. much more coming up. hello there. while saturday brought us another warm, dry september day across much of the uk, things are now changing from sunday and through the course of this coming week it's a more unsettled picture. rain or showers at times through the day on sunday and things will start to feel a bit cooler than they have done recently, too. and the reason for that is that we've got low pressure out towards the north—west of the uk. and that's going to be driving in some weather fronts through the day. and we've got further low pressure systems waiting out in the wings for later on in the week. so we start off sunday morning with some heavy showers, particularly across south—west

england, the midlands, wales, northern ireland, too. some thunderstorms likely with some of those showers. they drift their way northwards and eastwards across the uk, followed by another band of rain. some drier and brighter weather working in from the south—west in the day. so a bit of sunshine around. and i think northern and eastern scotland probably holding onto the sunshine for a good part of the day. 18—23 degrees, so cooler than it has been, but still reasonably warm for some eastern areas where you do see the sunshine at times. now that showery rain should start to clear away towards the north and the north—east as we move through sunday night and into the early hours of monday morning. there could be some mist and fog patches around first thing monday. and it will be a slightly resonate sunday night compared to this current night. but still frost free around 11—13 degrees. now heading on into monday, and this next area of low pressure moving in, that's associated with the remnants of ex—hurricane humberto, so it will bring some wet and some windy weather eventually to the uk, but nothing unseasonable here. in fact, much of monday looks dry and fine with some sunshine,

still a bit cloudy and damp across the north of scotland. late in the day that is where we see the wind speaking up in the rain arriving across south—western england and wales and northern ireland, too. central and eastern england should keep the sunshine through much of monday, 20 degrees also here. typically the high teens for most of us. certainly cooler than it has been recently. more blue on the map for tuesday. more rain. some of it could be quite and thundery, too. also still quite breezy, especially towards the south. but some sunny spells in between the showers, so not a complete washout on tuesday. but it's certainly feeling cooler than it has done recently, with most of us seeing temperatures at 17—18 degrees also on tuesday. and then with low pressure not far away as we look through the rest of the week, plenty of shower symbols on the outlook chart for the capital cities over the next five days or so. showers around, particularly across parts of scotland, and northern ireland, too. some sunnier spells for the south and east, but an unsettled story for much of the week ahead. bye— bye.
