next up it is the travel show. we are starting off a iceland this week. here, just off the eight —— right coast of iceland we are searching. because apparently there

is something in the water. notjust one of them, either. there are 23 species of them. every now and then, the whole by rushes over trying to see what is going on. and then we go to another direction and we go there. we never know where things are going to pop up. we are watching votes cast off to see every day in excellent in the hope of catching a glimpse of these mammals. you have got a great spot here. it is the best spot. main key to a clock. we have a minky whale at our two o'clock. wow! how do you even try and find wales? in such a vast area? what are the tell—tale signs?

and find wales? in such a vast area? what are the tell-tale signs? the easiest one is their body. when a black body comes up and you see the triangle shape are friend but also the blow. when you see their breath, you know what species you have. really, just from their breath and you can tell the species? yes. that is incredible. how often do you see wheels on these tours? we basically see them when we go out. in the end it is the third. we have nutrient rich waters. because it is called, the colder the water the more oxygen and myth that the more life you have. elsewhere in the world, travellers contact with whales is in captivity. globally hundreds of whales are thought to live this way

but public appetite for holding these intelligent and social animals appears to be shifting. just last year, greenpeace drew attention to dozens year, greenpeace drew attention to d oze ns of year, greenpeace drew attention to dozens of beluga wheels and are that have been kept in poor conditions in russia and destined for entertaining packs in china. but in recent weeks they were released after a public outcry. fortunately these whales had only been captive for a short time so only been captive for a short time so could cope with life back out at sea. but what happens when theme park owners agree to release their whales who are unable to defend themselves out in the open ocean? so themselves out in the open ocean? so the next morning i travelled to the south of the island and out to the western islands. a short ferry ride off the mainland. i had heard that here in iceland a new kind of sanctuary was being created.

there are so many beautiful coves around iceland, why this particular place? it is a beautiful surrounding for them, with the cliffs protecting them from the wind and the icelandic weather and also having the weather temperature more like the arctic and where they would be found in the wild. to beluga whales called little white and little grey will soon be the first to be released into the bay. they hadn't until recently been performing at an entertainment park in china but after the operators decided to end the practice, they try to find new homes where the animals where they could live out their lives. what is the power for tourists. that is to manage boat trips. we have a partner who will be bringing visitors. they will get out

and see them from all distance and like a whale watching trip. and find out why little white and little grey are here. little white and little grey we re are here. little white and little grey were carefully flown on the long journey from china to iceland but they could not be released straight into the bay. they have for the last few months been acclimatising in the nearby sea life centre to the waters here and working with hind legs to learn how to ta ke working with hind legs to learn how to take the finaljourney into the bay. —— handlers. my goodness. it is incredible! can i come down? hello! they are so graceful in the water, aren't they? what do you love most about them ? aren't they? what do you love most about them? you know, beluga whales are kind of friendly animals. they

will not hurt you and you can walk with them peacefully and it is great fun to work with them. beautiful gentle giants? yes. which is the naughty one? grey. this one? yeah. this country's relationship with whales is complex, being one ofjust a few places in the world which legally allows some hunting of the animals. but projects like this and the fairy —— various ways of watching these animals is encouraging protection. would you like some more fish? yum!! i will give you... was that about? she keeps wanting more. 0h,

give you... was that about? she keeps wanting more. oh, if you insist. if you insist. there we go. there is another little burp. up up next, we meet two women who are pa rt up next, we meet two women who are part of a unique team that took on an incredible journey across america. race across america is 3070 miles from the west coast of america to the east coast of america. it was a different kind of cycling to anything i had ever done before. so from california to maryland and it had to be completed in nine days. it

was an idea that i had had on the back of my mind that i wanted to put a team together. i had seen two teams of wounded, injured and sick quys teams of wounded, injured and sick guys do it and seen that there had been no females in that team and wondered why not. there was a raiders, all who have had different health challenges, be that physical oi’ health challenges, be that physical or psychological or both. half the tea m or psychological or both. half the team were civilian and have the military. i met sally through some in the cis training camps. the one main concern i had was that i am visually impaired. i had a brain injury when i was injured in the army in 1996. for me to be cycling on the other side of the road when i am completely blind to the left was a lwa ys am completely blind to the left was always going to be something i had never done and quite frankly didn't

really know how that was going to go. we all went over the start line together. what then had to happen was that as a nonstop race, the team of eight raiders broke down to do pods. there were four people in each pods. there were four people in each pod and a support crew. the first tea m pod and a support crew. the first team carried on cycling for a nine error period. so within that nine hours, every 20 minutes we would change raiders. the other pod, in that time, had moved forward and they were having to get their resting which is quite difficult when you have just had the adrenaline at the start and then have to go, right, you have to go to sleep. i can see -- might remember seeing a lot of road. when you are concentrating on cycling as fast as you can. looking up is not something you can. looking up is not something you did. i looked up and i am so glad i did. we were the pod that was very, very fortunate to cycle

through monument valley. a lot of colour, a lot of red rock formations that just stand on colour, a lot of red rock formations thatjust stand on this vast colour, a lot of red rock formations that just stand on this vast array of countryside. it's almost indescribable. there had been a lot of diet and everybody‘s mind and for me i look back and reflect on the time that my depression was at its worst, when i didn't think there was any reason to live. and, yeah, i look back to that time and think this is an autism not as difficult as that to try and overcome. the race finished in maryland, eight of us cycled down the road and everybody is cheering thatis the road and everybody is cheering that is driving past. i am incredibly proud to have been able

to have had an opportunity to take pa rt to have had an opportunity to take part in such an extreme event. it has forced me to sort of go out of my comfort zone i suppose. we were able to achieve something really quite incredible and hopefully others will be able to look back on what we have achieved and inspire them to go and take on their own race them to go and take on their own ra ce a cross them to go and take on their own race across america. hello. we have had chris sunshine across the uk today. despite this, temperatures have struggled to get above freezing today. any showers in the east coast and england and southern england will fade through this evening, clear skies for england and wales. mcleod for scotla nd england and wales. mcleod for scotland and northern ireland. it is

a milder night here, a few pockets of frost and southern scotland before the cloud increases. above freezing for northern ireland and a widespread frog from interest and wales. —— mike frost. there is an area of high pressure with us to start the week but this frontal system will continue to bring outbreaks of rain through the day. heavy and persistent at first action packed year. could see rain in the central belt and southern scotland by the end of the afternoon. dry it cloudy for northern ireland and cloudy for northern ireland and cloud increasing across northern england and north wales. light winds for most but a brisk westerly across the western side of scotland so feeling milder here, nine, 10 celsius. six, eight celsius in england, wales and northern ireland. tomorrow night, the rain continues east. and then it eventually clears away. we are left with a drier day on tuesday, the drifts away and it

will pull in some air, and increasing risk that we will see fog returning through tuesday and wednesday. some could be slow to clear across england and wales. when it does, most could see spells of sunshine and it is a dry day for the whole of the uk on tuesday. cloud with a breeze in scotland. six, eight celsius the top temperature. high—pressure drifts away as we go into wednesday. this system pushes into wednesday. this system pushes into northern ireland and scotland. rain persistent in scotland and then easing away. you wednesday into friday, colder, bluer cold there is —— colours. cold and first in the week ahead. slowly tie learning milder. the risk of fog and cold and windy by friday. goodbye.

this is bbc news, i'm lukwesa burak. the headlines at 7pm... the woman killed in the london bridge attack has been named as 23—year—old saskia jones, a former student at cambridge university. her family said she was "funny and kind" and will leave "a huge void" in their lives. the university's vice chancellor said he is "devastated". this is an attack on our community in many ways, and it was intended as such. it was meant to produce a form of terror and sadness, and it's clearly done that. new images reveal the bravery of members of the public tackling the convicted terrorist on the bridge and in the hall where his attack began. you have andy and lukasz starting a fight back. they used fire extinguishers, they used chairs. they used those narwhal tusks ripped off the wall
