this is the some localised flooding. this is the story at the moment, a lot of cloud around and showers drifting steadily northwards. the best of the brightness so far has been to the north—west. that's not going to last as the rain pushes north. some of them could be headed towards the end of the afternoon in the south—west. it is mild out there, 9—13. it looks likely that will continue for another couple of days. through the evening, the showers moving north, we keep a blanket of cloud across the country and then another area of low pressure moving in from the south—west. with the cloud around, and incredibly mild night, 8—10. we need to draw your attention to this area of low pressure, the remnants of storm sebastien. it's got a bit more intensity, bringing some rain,

some of bit heavy for a time. gale force winds, pushing in to the south—west and wales. through the day that will be moving across northern ireland, northern england and over towards east anglia. it will park itself across the scottish borders for the remainder of the day. at the same time, another pulse of wet weather moving into south—east england. a blustery afternoon for many, a mild afternoon because the wind direction for the time being is coming from the south. into wednesday, that low pressure moving slowly eastwards across the country, still bringing outbreaks of rain. the southern flank could see some pretty strong gale force winds across channel facing posts, a pulse of wet weather and some persistent rain across north—east england and again through southern scotland. accompanied by a north—easterly breeze. slightly fresher feels

tipping is particularly on the north sea coast. that's a sign of what's to come in the weekend. the northerly wind dragging this cooler air right across the country. i'm trying to find some light at the end of the tunnel, yes it will get colder into the weekend butjust that little bit brighter with some night—time frosts returning. a reminder of our top story now. a lorry driver charged over the deaths of 39 vietnamese migrants has admitted plotting to assist illegal immigration. maurice robinson still faces 39 counts of manslaughter. disruption for students across the uk — as university lecturers and support staff start an 8—day strike. if there are different ways of getting around it and having it affect our exam weekjust isn't fair. that's all from the bbc news at one, so it's goodbye from me, and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc‘s

news teams where you are. good afternoon, it's 1:30pm and here's your latest sports news. we'll start with cricket and the news that the ecb and new zealand cricket are conducting an investigation into racial abuse aimed towards england cricketer jofra archer — that came during day five of england's defeat in the first test match at the bay oval. adam mountford has the details from mount maunganui. the incident was reported to have taken place when archer was dismissed and was walking back to the pavilion. archer has written on social media that he was subject to racial insults from a supporter. the person concerned has not yet been identified but the authorities are checking cctv footage at the ground and the investigation is ongoing. new zealand cricket say they will be contacting archer tomorrow to apologise for the unacceptable experience and have promised

increased vigilance in hamilton where the second test is played from friday. jofra's allegations come after england suffered a humiliating defeat to new zealand in that first test. they lost by an innings and 65 runs after the unlikely task of batting through the day to save the match, proved beyond them. they can quickly make amends with the second and final test beginning on thursday night. we'll continue to keep trying to find ways of making inroads on surfaces like this. but again, credit has to go to two guys who played really well and it just highlights the fact that when we get chances in the game, whether it be in the field or with the bat, we have to take them. zara hyde peters will not take up a position as uk athletics' new chief executive after allegations made about her husband came to light. the times newspaper alleges mike peters was allowed to continue coaching at a club, where she was vice—chair, despite being banned from teaching

over an "inappropriate relationship" with a 15—year—old schoolgirl. hyde peters was due to start her role next month. the british 400 metres runner anyika onuora has retired from athletics. the 35—year—old from liverpool enjoyed an 18—year international career and won a bronze in the 4x400metres relay at the rio olympics. she also won a bronze in the same event a year earlier at the world championships. great britain and england hockey player sam ward says he will do "everything he can" to return to hockey after losing the sight in his left eye. this follows earlier reports that ward had in fact retired. ward was struck in the face by the ball during the olympic qualifying play—off win against malaysia earlier this month. he sustained a crushed retina and facial fractures. the 28—year old has scored 72 goals in 126 appearances for great britain and england and represented team gb at the rio olympics.

charley hull finished second at the lpga's season—ending tour championship in florida — just missing out on the richest prize in the history of women's golf — a cheque for 1.5 million dollars. the english golfer finished on 17 under par — one shot behind winner sei young kim of south korea. looking for her second lpga title — hull had started the day five shots adrift — but five birdies in the final seven holes meant that kim had to sink a 25—footer to win it on the 18th. which she did. two of the six contenders for the bbc sports personality of the year award have been announced this morning. dina asher—smith has been nominated, after a year in which she won 200 metre gold at the world athletics championships in doha. england cricket world cup hero ben stokes was the first name to be announced. and within the last few minutes,

england and manchester city footballer raheem sterling hasjust been revealed as a contender. 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 let's get more now on the controversy over the british gangster film ‘blue story‘. a second cinema chain has stopped showing the film after violence broke out at a cinema in birmingham. showcase has followed vue cinemas in pulling the film. odeon cinemas say they have extra secrity in place for screenings. west midlands police described the violence that broke out on saturday evening as some of the worst their officers had seen. earlier, my colleaguejoanna gosling spoke the designer william adoasi who is leading calls for a boycott of the cinemas who've banned the film.

i think it sets a really, really negative precedent. i think when you actually watch the film, which i fortunately have, you see that it actually humanises people from these backgrounds and it gives you context to why people may go down the wrong path and actually shows you how empty that lifestyle is. so it in no way glorifies that lifestyle at all. so for them to just blanket ban it is really, really bad. the police didn't say that the film shouldn't be shown. why do you think that this link was made between what happened in birmingham and then this ban coming about? i think there has been some assumptions. even when i have looked through the news reports, obviously, i don't know the full context, but looking through the report, the children weren't even old enough to see the film, the children that were involved in the brawl. most of the children who were arrested were under 15 and the film is 15 and above. so the fact that they have run and chosen that film

as the scapegoat, i think, to maybe protect numbers of other films that may be in the cinema, i think, again, is extremely bad and is blocking some amazing art that has been created by someone from our community. why do you think the link might have been made? well, it is clear, it is a young black guy from south london who has created an amazing film which highlights a lifestyle, but also humanises these people and shows where they may be coming from. so the assumption is made that because there is gangster lifestyle within that film, that is perpetuating the lifestyle that these other young people are going down. but if you watch the film, you realise it actually does the opposite. and obviously by this happening, it has got maybe people becoming more aware of it than they might have been because of the fact that this has now become a news story. you can still see it, odeon are showing it. what would you say to people about... who are thinking about it

and are wondering if it does glamorise violence and whether they should see it? i would encourage as many people as possible to see it and understand the stories behind the people like me watching it. i could relate a lot to it. i grew up in peckham in camberwell and i was only 19 when i first stepped into lewisham, because of the kind of beef and the arguing that ensued between the two neighbourhoods. so i think for the first time, we are able to tell our own stories and show the context behind those stories. so i would encourage as many people as possible to go out and see it and go out and see it as a protest against vue cinemas and others that have banned it, because it should not have been banned. what is the most important constituent? i don't know if you can put it like this, but in terms of who would be watching it, kids who might get caught up in the way you are describing who could see it and, you know, see that different narrative, or others who might, you know, find it educational

about areas where they might not understand? yes, i would say it is a film for everyone. it is notjust for the kids. it is amazing for the kids to see that and see that this lifestyle that you think looks great and has been glamorised is not as great as you think it is. and if you watch the film, you realise that there is such an empty void that is left when you go down that path. so it is amazing for those young people to see it. it is also amazing for the general public to be able to see it because i think the media often portrays young black people from these neighbourhoods in a specific light. so to be able to watch a film that actually humanises them, enables you to see the context, their story, what they have gone through and the two things happening and how they went through that path, it is amazing for anyone to see. i would encourage everyone to go to your local cinema and to watch it.

an estimated one—in—five adults in the uk has a tattoo — most on parts of the body that can be covered up easily. but one salon is calling on clients to think carefully before getting a tattoo on their face, neck or hands, as it could hamper their job prospects. john maguire has been finding out more. level tattoo studio in bristol offers an eclectic range of designs, but it has a strict policy on facial tattoos. young clients are asked for id, and even if they are 18, the staff here draw a line. do you want it so obvious you want people to see, you want to see it every time, even your face and the shoulders or something. it's like when you go to the mirror and wash yourface in the morning, it's the first thing that you see. so, do you want to see that every single day for the rest of your life? ryan is back in the chair after eight hours of work yesterday as tattoo artist carlo completes his design.

it extends onto a hand, but for ryan, the face is a no go. in my line of work, when you meet clients and that, i do think my image means a lot. so, i'm not sure if it intimidates some people or not, i'm not too sure, but most and foremost, i wouldn't have it personally. ijust don't think it would look all right on me more than anything else. so, you sort of draw the line of what's... yeah, i wouldn't. .. obviously visible. yeah, that'll be it now, so... yeah, i wouldn't do neck or face, no. from beckham to bieber, body art is more prevalent and more obvious among trendsetters and influences than ever before. but there's concern within the industry about young fans copying their idols. the british tattoo artists federation wants stricter licensing and to stop illegal or backstreet shops tattooing the hands, face or neck of a young person if a reputable studio has said no. if they're older and they had a job where they're not going to lose it for,

say, and they were quite settled, then maybe, yeah. but, yeah, i'd really, really think about it and discuss it with them as well, whether they were certain. age 30, and as a tattoo artist himself, carlo believes his face and neck tattoos are appropriate, but he too would turn away somebody barely into adulthood. it'sjust a thing of them looking on something for that one second and thinking it's cool, so they'll go and get that tattoo that day and they're pretty much gonna regret that, i think, in my eyes anyway. i didn't want a screaming mother coming back at me because i tattooed someone's face, do you know what i mean? social attitudes to tattoos are changing with the military, for example, easing restrictions on what's visible when in uniform. seen by some as a symbol of rebellion, this is an industry determined to adhere to rules and regulations. john maguire, bbc news, bristol.

days of heavy rain have caused widespread flooding across south—eastern france and northern italy. hundreds of homes were damaged in the french cote d'azur, and a landslide caused a motorway bridge to collapse in italy. rich preston reports. across the french riviera, normally famous for pristine towns and crystal blue waters, the rains have kept on coming. people have had to abandon their cars and their homes. towns have been cut off after rivers broke their banks. several people have been reported missing across the region. here in the seaside town of cagnes—sur—mer, boats normally moored out at sea, dragged onto the street by the water. 100 kilometres away over the border in italy, the extent of the damage is vast. in the province of savona, the water has been unforgiving. this viaduct washed away

by a landslide, there were no reports of any injuries. and in venice, the city on the water, is once again under water. in the famous st marks square, tourists and venetians wading through the tides. these people have suffered weeks of overwhelming water levels, business owners doing what they can to protect their property. this has been the worst month for high tides in venice since records began. pumps constantly on the go, with no sign of them being switched off soon. rich preston, bbc news. the headlines on bbc news... a lorry driver, who is accused over the deaths of 39 migrants in essex, has admitted plotting to assist illegal immigration. disruption for students across the uk as university lecturers and support staff start an 8—day strike. joy at the ballot box —

pro—democracy supporters celebrate as they win overwhelmingly in hong kong's local elections. let's get more on the election now, and the south west is a key election battleground between the conservatives and the liberal democrats. the lib dems lost all their seats across the peninsula to conservative challengers in the 2015 general election, but came within just 312 votes of retaking the st ives constituency last time. our south west political editor martyn oates has this report from the libs dems' top target seat in the region. the south—west‘s most marginal seat is a place of geographical superlatives. its southernmost tip is also the most southerly point of the british mainland. a magnet for tourists in the warmer months, a bright november morning sees it full of locals, many with trenchant views on politics, brexit and shifting party allegiances. if you look around you, anything that is less than a0 years

old in the way of infrastructure has been built with eu money. and the government is not going to replace that. they will abandon cornwall quite happily because it has no effect on them at all, particularly if everyone votes lib dems. i feel that brexit should happen. i have always voted labour but i cannot vote forjeremy corbyn in any shape or form — the way that he feels about brexit. i'm going to vote liberal down here. because it is the one way of making sure that our dear, sort of, whatever, beloved tory mp doesn't get back. it's taking too long now, isn't it? i am definitely bored of it and everybody is bored of it. i don't know anybody who is not bored of it, to be honest. this sea—girt constituency includes both of west cornwall‘s peninsulas within a peninsula. across the great sweep of mount‘s bay is the lizard's more

rugged and weather—beaten twin, penwith. home to mainland britain's most westerly town, stjust. low granite houses defy the atlantic gales. a legacy of west cornwall‘s once great but now long disappeared tin—mining industry. the local butcher, a lifelong resident, gives me a warts—and—all thumbnail sketch of the town today. it is a very very expensive part of the country to live in. our house prices are through the roof. it might look like the dream, but it actually isn't. it could be the nightmare. the chasm between average house prices and average earnings is a problem across cornwall, but it is particularly acute here. of cornwall‘s six constituencies, st ives has the second highest average house prices and the lowest average earnings. brexit or no brexit, the search for a political

solution to this now huge disparity remains a burning issue here. there is a lot of very rich and very poor so a massive gap in the middle of there. so i think what we need down here is that gap narrowing. and it is one of those situations where the money tends to stay within the rich and the poorjust seem to be getting poorer. but to change the political weather here, the anti—brexit liberal democrats need to woo an electorate which voted by 55% to leave the eu. and this isn't one of the handful of southwest seats where the greens have agreed to fall by the wayside to help the lib dems navigate their way back to the sunshine. though st ives is arguably the one constituency where it might have sped theirjourney. there is a full list of all the candidates standing in st ives on your screen now. you can also find information for candidates in any other constituency on the bbc website. go to bbc.co.uk/constituencies

when polling stations open for next month's general election, how heavy will concerns about the environment weigh on the minds of voters? this year we've seen high—profile protests by the campaign group extinction rebellion, while the teenage activist greta thunberg sailed to america. but what about events closer to home? james cook reports from doncaster. entire ecosystems are collapsing! it was frightening in that boat, all that dirty water round, you know. when do we want it? now! if we don't have a planet, the election isn't going to matter. well, they're still clearing up here in fishlake, which was one of the places most badly affected by those floods, this wall here just swept away. the question is — have these

extreme weather events been caused by global warming, and does all of this have anything to do with how people are going to vote in the general election? so this is one of the houses that was affected by the flooding here in fishlake and the owners have kindly said we can go inside and have a look. i'd say it was about — to about here. so sorry to see that. the smell as well, it's...yeah. and you can really — as soon as you walk in, you can smell it, can't you? pungent. we had no time at all, to be quite honest. it was — get yourselves out. really? really, really fast? yeah, yeah, get your car out as well. do you think the politicians are taking this issue seriously enough? um...not really, no, no. until i think it happens to yourself...they've got no idea. you can see how strong it was. oh, wow! the power of the water what was coming through...

do you think that the issue of the environment and the changing climate and flooding is at the forefront of voters' minds here or not? i don't think so. i mean, at the end of the day, it's a freak thing, what's happened, isn't it? so what are voters voting on, do you think? brexit this time? yes...well, i hope so. i'm 77, and it's an experience i never want to have again. they had me on my knees on the little dinghy to get out and he said, "you'll be all right there. just hold on." and i kept thinking, "what if it turns over and i'm in that dirty water?" in this election, the conservatives are trying to win some old labour seats. do you think the floods will make people think twice about voting for them or not? oh, well, it will make them think twice before they do vote, but...because he's not a popular prime minister...

borisjohnson? yes, he'll have a fight on his hands, i think. but, yeah, but i have heard quite a few people say, "i'm not voting labour this time." i haven't made up my mind yet, so i don't really know. this here is the farmland, so all of that that we're seeing that's underwater now is usually farmers' fields. this is what the future of climate change looks like for a town like doncaster. you know, we're in a floodplain at the moment and as air pressures rise because of carbon releases and things like that, we're just going to start getting more rain, it's going to come more heavily, the rivers are going to keep rising. and for you, will be that be the number one determining factor in your vote in this election? absolutely. it's the number one determining factor of my life, to be fair, you know. i want a future!

there is a full list of all the candidates standing in doncaster north on your screen 110w. you can also find information for candidates in any other constituency on the bbc website. go to bbc.co.uk/constituencies now it's time for a look at the weather with louise. it looks highly likely we will close out november as it began. unsettled. there is yet more wet and are times when the weather to come. so for the next couple of days the main emphasis is a crossing in and wails and your bbc local radio station is of course the best place to go for local traffic and travel updates. but for the remainder of the day we have bands of rain dripping their way steadily northwards on the best of any bright weather is in the far north of scotland with cloud and rain around it are still on the mild side. nine to 13 degrees. as we go

through the evening, and showers start to drift their way northwards and clear spells behind, before we see yet more wet and windy weather arriving into the south—west. with cloud around, it is going to stay quite mild through the night overnight close of eight to 10 degrees. but that area of low pressure could be an issue first thing in the morning across the south—west. it has the remnants of a tropical storm storm sebastien moved and mixed up in it. that means it has more energy and force as it brings that rain across the south—west and we will see gust of winds of a0 to 50 miles an hour. met office warnings remain in force and that wet weather will push its way northwards across northern ireland and opening ireland and moving its way into east anglia with a trail of more persistent rain arriving into the south—east little earlier on. by the south—east little earlier on. by the end of the day, but rain will be parked across southern scotland and again that will cause some issues as well. tuesday is a bit of a messy

story but against a mile. nine to a01a degrees behind. as we move into wednesday, that pressure continues to move eastwards and that will bring wales some rain at times. the frontal systems continue to bring wet weather across north—east england and scotland. the best of any dry weather out of the west and again it still says mild. but not for long, the winds are set to change direction and we lose that mouth southerly and dried a return toa mouth southerly and dried a return to a northerly flow so the cold air arrives for the start of the weekend. that will have a noticeable impact on the story. brighter for many but noticeably colder. take care.
