hello. this is bbc news. the duke of york is facing widespread criticism today after the bbc interview in which he denied having a sexual encounter with a 17—year old girl in 2001. virginia roberts says she was groomed byjeffrey epstein — the american financier who was convicted on child sex offences in 2008, and who had been a friend of prince andrew. the prince has admitted that going to stay with him after his release from prison was a mistake, and is now facing calls to assist legal inquiries in the united states. 0ur royal correspondent

nicholas witchell reports. your royal highness, we've come to buckingham palace... the interview has been heard, andrew's answers have been noted, with incredulity in some quarters and, one suspects, with something close to despair within the royal household. the reaction to his words in most cases has been negative. the consensus, in pr terms, the interview was extremely ill—advised. andrew was categoric about his denial of impropriety with the then 17—year—old virginia roberts. she has claimed that on the night of their alleged first encounter, she was introduced to him at tramp, the nightclub in central london. she says they danced together there, but andrew was emphatic that he was at home. he said he had taken his daughter beatrice to this pizza restau ra nt daughter beatrice to this pizza restaurant in woking in surrey in the afternoon.

how had he managed to remember a specific night so many years ago? because going to pizza express in woking is an unusual thing for me to do. a very unusual thing for me to do. i've never been... i've only been through woking a couple of times, and i remember it weirdly distinctly. as soon as somebody reminded me of it, iwent, oh, yes, i rememberthat. in the united states, home to most of the young women who say they were trafficked byjeffrey epstein to perform sexual favours, lawyers are saying andrew should now repeat his testimony under oath. whether a person is a prince or a pauper, if anyone has evidence or information that might be relevant to an investigation of a criminal case, that person should provide it to the law enforcement. in this case, it would be the federal bureau of investigation. and from those who have worked for the royal family and who are familiar with prince andrew, there is a feeling of weary resignation.

they will be wondering, was the right decision made? who made the decision to put him on? did he make it himself, or did he seek advice within the palace? my guess is that he bulldozed his way in and decided that he was going to do it himself, without any advice. i'm truly grateful for the opportunity... it was supposed to be the interview which drew a line under the story for andrew and allowed him to move on. that moment is certainly some way off. nicholas witchell, bbc news. i understand from people close to prince andrew that he stands by the decision to do the newsnight interview, though it is fair to say i think that they have been taken aback by the intensity of the negative reaction to it. they say he wa nted negative reaction to it. they say he wanted to address these issues head—on and feel that he did so with honesty and humility. they hope, they say, that people willjudge him on that basis. former royal journalist and a campaigner for victims of sexual abuse catherine mayer said the interview

showed no compassion for epstein's alleged victims. it was as bad as i expected. probably worse. it was bad — if that was supposed to be exercising exculpation and reputation management, it was disastrous, but it was also terrible because it erased the victims of epstein. he was given the chance at the end, "is there anything else you would like to say?" and he said "no, no, i think you've dragged it all out of me." well, he didn't mention those women once. he mentioned them only in the sense that he may not have noticed them in epstein's house because he was so used to being surrounded by servants, ie servants aren't people so you don't notice them. just extraordinary, but also kind of unsurprising for me, because i've been around him a lot and been around the royals a lot. i wanted to ask you that. you have met him. can you give us an insight

a little bit more into what sort of person he is? yes, i mean, it's strange. i spent, i went on a trip to china with him when he was uk trade ambassador, so in 2004 this was, and like many other royals, i actually ended up a lot of the time feeling sorry for him, a sensation i now question somewhat, but it was because he was so out of his depth, and all of them are, in the sense that the queen's children have been brought up in these extraordinary, this bubble, where they are told they are very special, that they have this really special role, but actually they can't determine what the role is, they can't do a job, so they both have entitlement and no agency, and they have no real world experience. so, some of what — it explains some of what you're seeing, and he's not a bright man at all. shouldn't we — i mean you say that, of course he may also have been very poorly advised in this case, but... no, he's pushed back every time anyone‘s ever tried to give him good advice,

he's pushed back. i mean, i think because they have so little control over their own lives, when they can assert themselves they very often do, and andrew's particularly prone to that. shouldn't we give him some credit for attempting to face the music? no. what we're seeing is a culture of impunity, where his — i mean originally, whatever the situation, whatever he did or didn't do, in being photographed by epstein after epstein had emerged from jail as a convicted paedophile he was essentially giving cover to him. he was giving credibility to him. immigration has featured strongly in the general election campaign today — the conservatives have given more details of how they would make the system the same for people from eu countries and the rest of the world. and jeremy corbyn has said there would continue to be plenty of movement of people in and out of britain under a labour government. jessica parker reports.

long debated, the flow of people to the uk, the free movement of workers around the eu. he wants a further referendum, with remain versus a labour brexit deal, so what would that new deal mean for immigration because our economy and society has been enriched massively by people that have made homes here. no labour government led by me will bring in a hostile environment such as theresa may brought. simple question, will free movement and? there will be a great deal of movement. white make the conservatives are fleshed out some of their plans, treating eu and non—eu workers the same, the vast majority will need a job offer to

come and live in the uk. migrants will typically have to wait five yea rs before will typically have to wait five years before they can claim benefits. the annual charge to access the nhs will rise to £625. but no targets from a party that has been stung before by failing to meet them. if you don't have targets we don't have a way ofjudging whether your policy has been a failure or success. we will make sure parliament has control over immigration, so we get the advantages and benefits. how can we judge if the control is being used properly? we also control the costs that uncontrolled immigration undoubtedly places. to what extent should the uk be able to control exactly who can and can't come here to live and work chris mike it is also an issue of pragmatism, with many businesses saying they need easy a ccess

many businesses saying they need easy access to workers of all skills levels. there are so many industries that rely on people coming here to work from other countries, so we wa nt to work from other countries, so we want to make sure there is a system thatis want to make sure there is a system that is fair, where you have targeted enforcement so you can keep the rules, but that we recognise and celebrate what immigrants offer us all. in scotland, we need to encourage more people to come and live here. over the next 25 years, if we don't encourage people to make scotland their home and make a contribution to our economy, our working age population may decline, which will mean lower tax revenues in orderto fund which will mean lower tax revenues in order to fund our national health service. immigration was up for debate in the 2016 referendum, and in this referendum that hasn't changed. the headlines on bbc news: prince andrew categorically denies having sex with an american woman who says she was forced to sleep with him when she was just 17. in the election — the conservatives promise all migrants will be treated equally after brexit — regardless of where they come from.

and the labour leaderjeremy corbyn refuses to confirm whether or not free movement of people from the eu will be included in their general election manifesto. there have been renewed violent clashes in hong kong — with police using tear gas and water cannon to clear pro—democracy protestors after a standoff at a university building. 0ur asia correspondent robin brant reports. sunday morning in hong kong. these protests are now in their sixth month. 0n the edge of another university campus, taken over by protestors, there is tear gas, rubber bullets and water cannon from the police. from the other side they are now using improvised weapons. the police are now trying to move in on two fronts. the tear gas is coming from there and another group there, and what you have here is the last

of the students. they are throwing bricks, they are throwing petrol bombs. at the moment it remains a stand—off. for hours, both sides pushed back—and—forth. all as a handful of china's soldiers looked on, from behind the steel gates of their barracks just metres away. there were claims that both sides are resorting to lethal weapons. the police said one was hit in the leg by an arrow fired from the university. do you think the people of hong kong support you firing bows and arrows, support you throwing petrol bombs? i don't expect everyone to support us, but most of the citizens are ok with it. we're not asking for support, we just hope people understand what we are doing right now. for the second time in a week i'm standing on a bridge surrounded by protestors, with riot police on the other side. earlier in the week, it was a highway below they blocked. now, it is one of the tunnels to hong kong island. these protestors continue with their efforts to cause maximum disruption to hong kong's infrastructure. by the day's end the protestors

during his crackdown to end the war in 2009. a decade later, the families of those who went missing still hold daily vigils. translation: we want to expose the atrocities of mr rajapaksa to the world. mr rajapaksa has always denied the allegations against him, and as long as he remains president, he can't be held to account. the government and armed forces have been accused of covering up illegal killings of civilians in iraq and afghanistan by british troops. in an investigation by bbc panorama and the sunday times, a dozen british detectives said they had found credible evidence of war crimes, but that strong cases were not prosecuted. the ministry of defence has denied the claims. richard bilton has more. across two decades, british soldiers have fought wars

in afghanistan and iraq. most did their duty and came home, but some were accused of committing war crimes. panorama has found evidence the state covered up what they did. like the killing of rahid al moussaoui in basra in 2003. translation: when rahid opened a door, the british soldier was crouching behind a pile of rubbish in the street. as soon as rahid walked out, the british soldier shot him, here. detectives from the iraq historic allegations team investigated the case. they wanted to prosecute one soldier for the killing and his commanding officerfor covering up what happened, but no one was charged. this detective asked to be interviewed anonymously. the ministry of defence had no intention of prosecuting any soldier, of whatever rank he was,

unless it was absolutely necessary and they couldn't wriggle their way out of it. ihat looked at hundreds of cases, but in 2017, the investigation was shut down. along with operation northmoor, which was looking at killings in afghanistan. there were no prosecutions. panorama has spoken to insiders in both investigations. they say cases were covered up. key decisions were being taken out of our hands. there was more and more pressure coming from the mod to get cases closed as quickly as possible. the mod says military operations are conducted lawfully, and that decisions not to prosecute were made independently and after extensive investigation. richard bilton, bbc news. and you can watch the panorama investigation tomorrow at 9pm on bbc one.

hundreds of bikers have gathered to ride in memory of harry dunn, the teenager whose death led to a diplomatic row with the united states. the bikers took to the streets close to the spot where harry died, after the motorbike he was riding was struck by a car. the main suspect in the crash, the wife of an american diplomat, left the country and returned to the us, claiming diplomatic immunity. harry's family said the support from the public was "the only thing keeping them going". large parts of central venice are under water again, after another exceptionally high tide inundated the city. over the last week, the italian city has registered three of its worst ten floods since records began. the high water levels have caused major disruption, and there are fears about the damage the salt water is causing to monuments. prague is marking the 30th anniversary of the velvet revolution

that ended decades of communist rule in the czech republic. however yesterday, at least 200,000 people protested against the current government on the eve of this anniversary. the protesters are calling for the prime minister's resignation, following allegations he used eu subsidies for his own business empire. our reporter rob cameron is in prague and sent this update. this is billed as a festival of freedom, an all day celebration of democracy, when people from all over stream into the city centre, here to narodni street, where 30 years ago today, on the 17th november 1989, a peaceful march by students was brutally suppressed by communist riot police. while it's a carnival atmosphere, it's taking place at a time of heightened political tension. earlier today, the prime minister, andrej babis, was booed and heckled as he laid flowers to the memorial to the students.

and it takes place one day after the biggest demonstration since the fall of communism, with demonstrators calling on mr babis to resign, something which he so far refuses to do. a nine—year—old boy from belgium is about to become the world's youngest ever university graduate. laurent simons — who is originally from ostend — is studying for an electrical engineering degree in the netherlands. if all goes to plan he'll graduate next month. the bbc‘s tim allman has the story. laurent simons likes nothing better than a little soldering and tinkering with electronics. a young man with a photographic memory and an iq of 145, he is living life at quite a speed. translation: i did the first year of my primary school, and then it went faster and faster. i did the remaining five years in one year. i did my secondary school in a year

and at university i do a course every week. laurent is studying at the eindhoven university of technology, and although he doesn't spend all that much time with his fellow students, his family believe he is on the right place. translation: i think he would have missed a lot of his youth if he were still in school. now it's just like a playground here, so he can do whatever he wants. like many boys of his age, he likes robots, but we're not talking about toys. laurent is a lot more ambitious than that. translation: my goal is actually extending life, replacing parts of human beings by technology. so, for example, artificial organs and robot arms, robot legs, things like that. next up, he is aiming for a graduate degree. just imagine what he'll do when he's ten.

tim allman, bbc news. terry o'neill — the photographer whose pictures helped define the 19605 — has died at the age of 81. his images of rock and film stars and royalty helped frame an age of celebrity — and the idea of the ‘5winging 5ixties.‘ david sillito looks back at his work. patrick macnee, twiggy. photoshoots don't get more 605 than that, and the man behind the lens was terry o'neill. his work, a who's who of the greatest stars of the last 50 years. this image of frank sinatra striding down a boardwalk is now a museum exhibit. indeed, his first assignment as a photographer on fleet street... you know, the very firstjob i ever had on the newspaper i got sent to photograph a group, and they turned out to be the beatles recording please please me, and i started at the top and i never looked back. # rebel, rebel, you've torn your dress.

in the ‘705, he captured david bowie's ever changing image. to his admirers, one of his great talents was developing relationships with his sitters. when you work with musicians, you have to respect that it's their time, but terry got very close to a lot of people, and in, you know, in some instances, he married his subject. you know, he was married to faye dunaway. married to faye dunaway, photographed frank sinatra — it wasn't an easy life. this was one of the first stones photoshoots, but as the years went by, modern stars weren't so interesting to him. i don't know what it is, all the guys seem to wear black suits, all the girls seem to be fashion plates, but they all look the same. it was a portfolio that had everyone from bardot to churchill, sinatra to taylor. terry o'neill's life truly was a catalogue of a golden age of stardom.

now it's time for a look at the weather. cloud and rain will become confined to the eastern side as we head through tonight. further north and west bar a few showers in the northern isles high pressure is building in here. so temperatures really taking a tumble here, widespread frost, mist and fog, further south—east with the breeze and the cloud and temperatures three to six degrees. high pressure dominating the scene into monday, a lot of fine and dry sunny weather up and down the country. away from the far south—east which would be near that area of low pressure, windy here from the north. a few showers but it will tend to be dry and brighter here. elsewhere lots of sunshine, one or two stubborn fog patches, if they linger it could stay chilly, otherwise seven to ten degrees will be the high. as we head into the weekend week, it looks like

the north and eastern areas will tend to stay dry. the breeze will pick up with the risk of thicker cloud and outbreaks of rain.

hello this is bbc news. the headlines. prince andrew categorically denies having sex with an american woman who says she was forced to sleep with him when she was just 17. i can absolutely, categorically, tell you that it did not happen. the duke of york said he does not regret his friendship with the convicted sex offender jeffrey epstein. in the election the conservatives promise all migrants will be treated equally after brexit, regardless of where they come from, but the foreign secretary rules out setting a target for the number of people entering the uk.

the labour leader, jeremy corbyn refuses to confirm whether or not free movement of people from the eu will be included in the party's general election manifesto. and terry o'neill, the photographer whose iconic works include this picture of his former wife, faye dunaway after she won an oscar, has died at the age of 81. sport, and for a full round up, from the bbc sport centre, here's gavin. england must have kicked off against kosovo. they have just kicked off round 35 minutes gone in that game. their final qualifier against kosovo. they are 1—0 kosovo. they are1—0 up. kosovo. they are 1—0 up. they have secured qualification and they have taken the lead through harry winks with the lead through harry winks with the goal there. nick pope is starting for england in goal. sterling is also playing in this match. a victory will confirm england as one of the six top seeds

for yea r‘s year's championship. yea r‘s championship. kosovo's automatic qualification hopes are over but they are in the play—offs. portugal secured their qualification this afternoon. this goalfrom cristiano ronaldo — his 99th for his country, and definitely not his best — secured them a 2—0 win over luxembourg. bruno fernandes had put them ahead on the first half. so ronaldo was to wait for his 100th international goal. the football doesn't stop there. this weekend has been billed as women's football weekend in the wsl with a number of premier league stadium being used. one of the big game's — the north london derby one of the big games — the north london derby between tottenham and arsenal was at the tottenham hotspur stadium and set a new record attendance over over 38,000 in the wsl. it ended in a 2—0 win for the visitors.

michael redford reports. the first official women's football weekend and a record crowd for the first ever north london derby in the women's super league. a chance for many to experience top flight football, a new stadium and the importance of bragging rights. although the excitement may have been too much for some. arsenal are the defending champions, the league is their territory. their are not used to have noisy neighbours. it showed, graham missing not once but twice to give tottenham the first half lead. they were nearly made to pay for it before the break. break. mccabe inches away from her first goal of the season. arsenal captain little making the breakthrough. arsenal weathered theroom to and we re arsenal weathered theroom to and were on the front foot. a gift for one of the best strikers in women's football. it was enough to secure victory and it meant arsenal stamped their authority on north london once

their authority on north london once again. earlier, manchester city briefly moved top of the table after hammering west ham 5—0. georgia stanway scored two first half goals, including her 100th for the club, but was later sent off in the second half. ellen white got her first in the league for city — with lauren hemp and tessa wullaert completing the scoring. so city back on track with this win, but for west ham this was their third defeat in their past four games. strom and we asked the players for clinical. in the birmingham game before the international break we probably had the same performance but the game was 1—0 until 70 minutes so to be 4-0 was 1—0 until 70 minutes so to be 4—0 up and took the chance, i thought the performance was excellent but the effort and the endeavour at 5—0 to make sure we didn't concede was pleasing. endeavour at 5—0 to make sure we didn't concede was pleasing. well, let's take a look

at the other matches today. chelsea moved back on top of the women's super league courtesy of a 1—0 win over manchester united. maren mjelde's second half penalty the difference. in the merseyside derby, anfield hosted a wsl match for the first time, but it was the away side who took the points. lucy graham with the goal for everton, who beat liverpool 1—0. bristol city snatched a late draw, at reading. 3—3 the score in that one. and brighton got their season back on track, with a convincing 3—0 win over birmingham. rugby now. the european champions cup holders, saracens, began the defence of their title with a heavy defeat in france earlier. they lost 30 points to 10 against racing 92, with the cloud of a domestic points deduction and heavy fine, hanging over them. patrick geary reports. saracens in happier time, this was may, that i were european champions, their dominance undisputed, now the picture is so much blurrier, the signs are that sarries will accept a

domestic points deduction and massive fine for breaching the salary cap. in europe, only their opponents can hand out punishment, it still hurts. racing 92 were scoring the tries saracens never use to allow, but this wasn't saracens as we know them. what was once steel was breakable. thomas crashed through. was his right foot in touch? apparently not. this decision sarris had to accept. but it is not just point to play, it is pride too. this week they promised they would not roll over. that would be an isolated incident. french league rules allow racing to spend on the best. they bulldozed to a bonus point. saracen's punishment means a relegation fight might be more important nana relegation fight might be more important nan a cup run.

northampton saints began their european campaign with an impressive win over the french league leaders lyon. wales fly half dan biggar was on form for them — but they held off a french fightback to seal the points. craig templeton has more. second in the premiership against first in france, a match that was billed as a tough start to the european season billed as a tough start to the european season for saints. but lion's indiscipline and the boot of biggar meant an early lead. when it looked like the challenge got going a replay showed the ball was knocked on. no try. biggarshowed his a replay showed the ball was knocked on. no try. biggar showed his skill with his feet. now it was time for fast hand to put in hutchinson who scrambled his way to the line. and asa scrambled his way to the line. and as a gentle reminder of biggar‘s kicking how about a penalty from nearly 50 metres? no world cup hangoverfor him. nearly 50 metres? no world cup hangover for him. but nearly 50 metres? no world cup hangoverfor him. but a nearly 50 metres? no world cup hangover for him. but a yellow card for harrison brought lyon back in to it. they capitalised in second with

a try. and he added another towards the end but it was too little, too late and it is saints who are up and runging with a win. —— running. staying with rugby and wales women haven beaten scotland away from home for the second time in eight months. 17—3 was the score at scotstoun. early tries from bethan lewis and lisa neumann set the tone.the welsh rarely looked troubled from then on as they followed up their 15—13 win over ireland last week.the results is a first defeat in three games for scotland head coach philip doyle since he took charge. the final of the atp world tour finals gets under way, the o2 arena in london in the next half an hour. it's between austria's dominic thiem and stefano tsitsipas, for the season—ending tournament. tsitsipas, who's making his debut in the world tour finals, says he's been loving the support from greek fans in london. you see the flags everywhere, and i

hear the people cheering my name, saying different things, on the court, it does feel like athens, like playing in my home town. i am grateful for that. it feels like playing in my home town. i am gratefulfor that. it feels nice, to be able to play, to play and have such a big crowd supporting you, in london. together with the two finals i played in roland garros, this will be my biggest match in my career, i am really happy about that fact. especially it didn't work out the previous three years and now i'm in the finals which is a bit unreal, still, but also very very great, and lam super still, but also very very great, and i am super happy about it. you can watch that match on jos butler hit a century in england's final warm up game — ahead of their two test

series in new zealand. but the game ended in a draw in whangarei. butler's 110 runs helped england make 405 in reply to the new zealand a side's 302—6 declared. and despite three wickets each forjofra archer and sam curran, england couldn't bowl them out in time so it was drawn. the first test is on wednesday in tauranga. england's tommy fleetwood has won the nedbank challenge at sun city — after a dramatic play off hole win. fleetwood finished level with marcus kinhult, after a closing round of 65, including three eagles, saw him finish on 12 under par. the englishman held his nerve, to save par on the playoff — and claim a first victory of the season. the win closes the gap at the top of the race to dubai standings, ahead of next week's season finale. spain's mark marquez won the final race of the moto gp season with victory at the valencia grand prix. there was a remarkable incident here though with rider johann zarco struck by another bike after he came off his own. luckily he was fine after checks. but it was marquez who ends the season in style — he had already won the overall title for a sixth time last month.

that's all the sport for now. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website. now it's time for the travel show. hello, and welcome to this look back at some of our recent adventures here on the travel show. it's been a busy few months, so here's a taste of what's coming up. it's so hot! i'm melting. totally worth it. look at this atmosphere! the fete des vignerons is a huge wine festival that's been taking place in switzerland since 1797. usually, it's once every 25 years, and this year lucy went along to take part. as well as being home to unesco—protected lavaux vineyards, vevey is known

for its living tradition — the fete des vignerons. a three—week long celebration of wine that transforms the town. and the festival itself began as a one—day feast hosted by an ancient brotherhood as a way to reward the best winemaker in the region. and it clearly takes the locals a while to recover as the festival only takes place once every 20—25 years. the fete des vignerons began in 1797 as a small parade through the streets of vevey. but because of unrest in the region over the next couple of decades, the next event wasn't organised for another 22 years. a cycle that has remained ever since. today the climax of the celebration is a daily show that takes place in a specially built stadium and features over 5,000 volunteers. and this year, the show‘s been created by the man behind cirque du soleil.

i'm loving the vibe back here, themed costumes, props everywhere. so with 5,000 people in your show, do you think you've got room for one more? do this with your hands, dance with your hands. does that mean i'm in? you are in! talk me through what i'm going to be doing. you are going to be a dancer, a starling dancer. the idea is that your upper body is completely separated from your lower body and your arms feel like wings that you can fly with. you make that look really easy. so i've got my moves, now it's time to get my costume. these are huge. how do i look? am i working it? you're amazing.

then the three—hour extravaganza began. the sun is blazing, it's so hot! i'm melting. totally worth it. look at this atmosphere! the choreography wasn't as important in the end, everyone was freestyling, but it looked really good. and what an honour to take part in something that only happens once every 20 years. i ain't going to to be this limber in 20 years, i'll tell you that now! well, we're always up for a challenge here on the travel show, but mike raised the bar recently when he went to malaysia and tackled a climb that was a real test of endurance. but the reward was

spectacular views. i'm in gunung mulu national park in malaysia's biggest state, sarawak. it's home to some of the world's largest caves, formed from limestone and shaped by millions of years of ground and rainwater. this process also created a bizarre collection of stone spires above the ground. at almost 50 metres tall, the pinnacles are an imposing spectacle. but to get there, sightseers face a long, brutal trek through the rainforest. "caution, a high degree of physical fitness is required past this point." "eight hours round trip." intense! yeah. lead the way! let's go!

he breathes heavily. you weren'tjoking! how is it? steep! he chuckles. we've only just started, and i'm already pretty exhausted. he breathes heavily. it's another kilometre before i reach the most treacherous stage. this is the first ladder, mike. 0k. right, larry. helmets on, right? all right. and who's first? after you, mike. after me. 0k, one down, 17 more to go. the beautiful limestone cliffs are sharp, but at least there's lots of places to grab onto. looks like it is raining down there. you think it's going to rain?

yeah, it will be heavy rains. he breathes heavily. 500 metres to go. 100 metres to go. what ladder‘s this? last ladder. the last ladder? this looks like the summit. is it? yeah, the summit is here. we are here, guys. oh, wow! yeah! and there's so many of them! 0h! this is beautiful! yep! just daggersjutting out of the forest canopy. thanks. yeah.

yeah, it really is spectacular, right? yep. mike taking on the pinnacles there in malaysia. now, rwanda might be one of africa's smallest nations, but it's becoming increasingly well known for its wildlife, especially its gorillas. recently, lucy headed there, hoping to meet some of these magnificent creatures. the walk is pretty tough — i'm not going to lie. the higher we get, the higher the altitude, my breath is getting a bit shorter. three hours and 4,000 metres above sea level, and i was beginning to fear i might not everfind a gorilla. oh, my god.

i look scared, but they are so big! i grabbed francis like my life depended on it. we have really, really lucked out here. so you have got a mother cradling her baby. we've got blackbacks. and we've got the mother of all gorillas, the silverback there. he'sjust watching us, watching him. i can't believe we are this close. my mind is just absolutely blown.

they are so beautiful. and when you think we share 98% of our dna with these great apes, you understand why they too are curious about us. rwanda, in collaboration with international conservation partners, has achieved remarkable success in not only protecting, but growing the mountain gorilla population. in fact, there are now 1,000 mountain gorillas here in the wild — up from 200 just two decades ago, when they were on the brink of extension. this is primarily down to the decrease in poaching, when the gorillas were hunted for meat. but in an effort to protect the gorillas, poachers were trained to become mountain guides and porters here, further supporting tourism. so talk to me about the poaching here. and so there is no problem, but there is no problem, because we keep avoiding it not happen by involving them in the communities and hiring the poachers to porterfor us. yeah. but you cannot say it is

done, so we keep on. but, of course, more gorillas means they need more space. the government has now pledged to expand the forest by 23%, adding almost 4,000 hectares to its current 16,000. you just hear little grunts just in the distance. at the minute, i think it is quite hard to tell if it is aggressive or playful grunts. wow. how did you feel when the gorilla came out of nowhere and jumped at you? scared! just being able to watch them eating, interacting and even communicating with us in their natural habitat is, hands down, one of the best experiences that i've ever had the pleasure of having while being on my travels.

i highly recommend it. well, that's all we have time for on this week's programme, but don't forget to sign up to our social—media feeds. you can see what we're up to and share your travel stories with us and the rest of the world. for now from me, christa larwood, and the rest of the travel show team, it's goodbye. hello there. some places have had a pretty wet weekend, particularly northern england. elsewhere largely dry, chilly with a little bit of sunshine and the good news is, high pressure begins to build in from the north and the west through tonight. it looks like many places will be drier with lots of sunshine through monday and indeed into tuesday. we hold on to some cloud though through central southern eastern parts of england tonight. a few spells of rain and also more of a breeze here but elsewhere

in the clear skies it is going to be a cold night, particularly scotland, northern ireland, wide spread frost, some mist and fog patches here, also some frost getting into wales and england too as skies clear here by the end of the night. so here it is, then our window of fine weather, this air area of high pressure, sandwiched between two areas of low pressure, this one will take charge across western areas later on in the week. we will have this one across the near continent which could flirt with the east, the south—east coast, of england to bring more of a breeze, cloud and a few showers but i think it will tend to retreat away and much of the country will have a dry sunny and cold day, where any fog lingers through the central belt it will be chilly, temperatures only one or two degrees. then through monday night, note the blue colours extend across much of the country, not for northern ireland, more of a breeze, more cloud here, but a very cold frosty start to tuesday but with the coldest start to the day throughout the week in fact. but again there should be plenty of sunshine round, one or two mist and fog patches

which should tend to clear in the afternoon. at this weather front continues to bring thicker cloud to northern ireland, western wales and the far south—west it could introduce a bit of rain here, and there will be more of a breeze too, but temperatures again single figures for most. through tuesday night we hold on to the breeze, the cloud, the rain across western and south—west areas so here not quite as cold as what it will be across scotland, northern eastern parts of england where skies will tend to remain clear, so a bit of frost here to start wednesday. high pressure though over the near continent tends to coop the near continent tends to keep things fine and dry for the eastern half of the country, this area of low pressure parked across the west continuing to bring stronger winds, cloud and occasionally outbreaks of rain. as we end the week we look at another area of low pressure which will bring further south or south—east winds to the uk. so western areas will see most of the cloud, a bit of rain, better drier, brighter weather further north and east and gradually the temperatures will recover slightly by tend of the week.

this is bbc news. the headlines at six: prince andrew categorically denies having sex with an american women who says she was forced to sleep with him when she wasjust17. i can absolutely, categorically, tell you that it did not happen. the duke of york said he does not regret his association with the financier and sex offender jeffrey epstein — now lawyers call upon him to give evidence. whether a person is a prince or a pauper, if anyone has evidence or information that might be relevant to an investigation of a criminal case, that person should provide it. in the election — the conservatives promise all migrants will be treated equally after brexit, regardless
