for the list of great english cricketers to be weighed down by the burden of captaincy. resuming on114, this was a flashback to the 2014 cricketer of the year. this was the world number one batsman in 2015, this was root enjoying himself. not his biggest knock, but he had never spent longer at the crease. for 10.5 hours in hamilton, he faced 4m deliveries. the kiwi bowlers, bludgeoned. he batted a long period of time, so it was almostjoe i think showing himself as well as others that he can bat with discipline, in a low—risk fashion, and play a big innings. more of a traditional type test match innings. root had batted through the whole of day three, but he could not make it to the end of day four. 226 runs, the second highest test score of his career had given england just a glimmer of hope, a platform to build a first—innings lead. jofra archer hit one

out of the ground. a dilemma for one england fan, find the ball, or finish that ice cream? good choice, rain's coming. they took two new zealand wickets by the close, both openers gone, and of course it was root who took a catch. it was his day, one in which he might have persuaded a few that the captaincy is in safe hands after all. olly foster, bbc news. time for a look at the weather. here's stav da naos. it was the first day of meteorological winter yesterday and it did feel like it as it did this morning for england and wales with frost and fog around. it is going to beat cold to start this week thanks to high pressure and dry for many but all change by the end of the week to something more unsettled.

high pressure is dominating at the moment with a lighter wind further south and the fylde could be an issue tomorrow morning and wednesday morning. for this afternoon despite being told they should be quite a bit of sunshine across much of england and wales. thicker cloud for scotland, the rain will clear away overnight. again across southern and eastern england a light wind and clear skies and it will turn very cold. we will see some dense fog patches across the south east of england which could cause some problems for airports and roads so do take extra care. some flights could even be cancelled or delayed. that fog lingering through the morning, clearing into the afternoon perhaps into low cloud. a dry

day for much of the country, thicker cloud affecting scotland and northern ireland. temperature is around 10 degrees but in single figures for most. high pressure slipping away south east in towards the middle part of the week. the wind still light enough to allow fog to develop through the south—east on wednesday morning. but further north and west with outbreaks of rain. breezy as well but again the south—east having another cold start with some dense fog around. that may lift during the day into low cloud. milder in the north—west again but another chilly day further south and east the weather front fizzling out and moving south—east but we look to the atlantic for this next system which will bring the real change. better and windier with gales across the north west of scotland. there rain totals really mounting up.

but further south and east tending to stay dry with some sunshine. temperatures creeping into double figures. a reminder of our top story. vigils are held in london and cambridge to pay tribute to the victims of the london bridge terror attack. 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. i'm olly foster at the bbc sport centre. the england captain, joe root, hit a double century in the second test against new zealand overnight, but it probably won't be enough to save the series. he hit 226, his highest score as skipper, as england reached a76 — a first—innings lead of

101. england's bowlers started well, taking two early wickets, but new zealand recovered to end the day on 96—2, just five runs behind. heavy rain is forecast for the final day, so there's liittle chance of an england victory that would level the series, but root‘s innings is a big positive to take away from the tour. it was an excellent innings and he really built on the 100 he scored the previous day and he carried on relentlessly, rotating the strike well and his footwork looked good. and the temperament, as well. he batted a long period of time. it was almost dues showing himself as well as others that he can bat with discipline and the low risk fashion and play a big discipline and the low risk fashion and playa big innings, more of discipline and the low risk fashion and play a big innings, more of a traditional type test match innings. three premier league managers have been sacked in less than a fortnight and there may be a fourth

boris johnson and jeremy corbyn stood side by side at guildhall yard in london and were joined by mayor of london sadiq khan, who called for london's residents to come together with this defiant message. we come together this morning as londoners to remember, to honour and to mourne the innocent lives lost as a result of the horrific terrorist attack this friday. our thoughts and prayers are with the families of jack merritt and saskia jones, and all those injured or affected by the attack on friday. the best way to defeat this hatred is not by turning on one another,

but it's by focusing on the values that bind us, to take hope from the heroism of ordinary londoners and our emergency services who ran towards danger, risking their lives to help people they didn't even know. it's also by drawing inspiration from the lives of jack and saskia who, from an early age, chose to dedicate themselves to helping others. so, yes, we come together this morning in condolence, but also in a spirit of defiance. to say that london will never be cowed or intimidated by terrorism, and also to commit to honouring the memory of saskia and jack by dedicating our future to one not defined by hatred,

but one defined by hope, by unity and by love. it's been revealed that one of the by—standers who tackled khan on friday, polish chef lucasz, was injured while attempting to prevent further injuries. today, his boss, toby williamson, the chief executive of fishmongers‘ hall, paid tribute to his bravery. lucasz was cleaning glasses in the basement when he heard screams and ran to help. as the first aider, he makes the choice, he goes towards the trouble and he gets there on the first floor of the building just behind me. and it is pretty clear there is a bad guy, he's got two knives in his hands, there is blood, screaming and chaos. he pulls off the wall this long

stick, he charges towards the bad guy and impacts him on the chest. and there is clearly something here that is protective, and it doesn't make any sort of impact. but he is buying time, he allows others to escape, to move to adjacent rooms. at that point, he has got about a one minute one—on—one straight combat. this guy, we now know by the name of khan. he works his way up lucasz‘ pole, smashing with this knife, and he takes five wounds to his left side, and is going to lose some strength on that side. but he has done what he needed to do in the first instance, he pulls off the wall this long

stick, he charges towards the bad guy and impacts him on the chest. and there is clearly something here that is protective, and it doesn't make any sort of impact. but he is buying time, he allows others to escape, to move to adjacent rooms. at that point, he has got about a one minute one—on—one straight combat. this guy, we now know by the name of khan. he works his way up lucasz‘ pole, smashing with this knife, and he takes five wounds to his left side, and is going to lose some strength on that side. but he has done what he needed to do in the first instance, so two other guys who are part of the charity, one has a fire extinguisher now and one has got this narwhal tusk ripped off the wall. they come and join the fight, and it is pretty gruesome. the terrorist decided he was outnumbered, he ran for it, went on the main staircase. he is that reception, but can cut out the front torso turns to reception where a guy called garrett, the doorman, is pushing the door

shut as good as can. they have the alarms, do exactly as their training is told to do. he shifted his position to the cloakroom, anna and sandra, they had a helluva time. it comes to a great showdown in the entrance hall. andy is the last guy introduced here, he is the last guy introduced here, he is our maintenance man. he is an ex policeman and a pretty cool customer. when the knife goes through his chest and the killer opened the door, he has the choice, he poses for a moment, is reluctant to spill all this out onto the pavement were members of the public would be facing the same problem, but he made the right choice. the doors open, out the terrorist falls and the first one after him is lucasz. he was shouting for everyone to get back. members of the

public to get back. members of the public to do that these days, they did what they needed to do, theyjoined in. lucasz is losing strength on its left side of this point, but his job is done. the police are here and i think you have seen the rest already on camera. a vivid account of the heroism of ordinary people given by tony williamson, the chief executive of fishmonger soul. three men have appeared in court charged in connection with an explosion at a mill in cheshire in which four people died four years ago. 64—year—old director george boden, from stockport, and his company, wood treatment limited, are both accused of corporate manslaughter. two other people from the firm are charged with health and safety offences. yunus mulla reports from stockport magistrates‘ court. the aftermath of the explosion was described as the scene of devastation. a four—storey building was reduced to

prosecution wrote out the charges faced by wood treatment limited. george putin, philip smith and peter schindler, all three men spoke to confirm their name and address. the court also heard they denied the charges. there was no indication... the investigation has been lengthy, detailed and complicated, involving cheshire police and the health and safety executive. the defendants will appear before chester crown court in the new year. the headlines on bbc news: the prime minister and labour leader were among those who fell silent to remember the victims of the london bridge attack — while a minute‘s silence was also held in cambridge for jack merritt and saskia jones.

the un secretary—general says the world must end its "war against nature" as two weeks of talks on climate change begin in madrid. jeremy corbyn pledges to cut railfares by a third and give under—16s free travel as part of labour‘s plan to renationalise the railways. women should be able to buy the morning—after contraceptive pill ‘straight off the shelf‘, without speaking to a pharmacist first. that‘s according to a new report from the royal college of obstetricians and gynaecologists. earlier, joanna gosling spoke to professor lesley regan, who is the president of that association. she explained how things can be made easier. what we‘re saying is that so many women are finding it very difficult to access basic needs — contraception and cervical screening. we just want to make it easierfor them. they have lots of other things to do in their lives and they need to get on and do that, rather than fighting a system

which is, unfortunately, a very good health care system, but the way we‘re commissioning it at the moment often means that you or i will have difficulty getting some very basic maintenance checks done quickly. so you think the morning after pill should just be sold straight off the shelf with no need for medical checks around it? yes, it is a very, very safe preparation. this is something when you‘ve had unprotected sex or perhaps a burst condom or something like that, that you can go and ensure that you don‘t become pregnant. if the morning after pill should be sold off the shelf, then why not the pill itself? well, that‘s a very good point. indeed, the progestogen only pill, we are asking if this could please be something that you can easily access, go onto the general sales list. there are 60 years of research into these hormonal preparations. they really are very, very safe. we want to try and combat the fact that the unplanned pregnancy rate in the uk is currently a staggering 45%. obviously, if these things were available off the shelf, it would free up a lot of time

for gps, who obviously have to take the time to prescribe it. it would make things a lot easier. what about health issues around it and having a proper consultation, where somebody is talked through what the side—effects are, and also making sure that notjust anyone can walk in and get off the shelf? it is very important women do consult health care practitioners about this, but they have to go back every time they need a repeat prescription. it should be sensible for women to have a supply of contraception for a year, and even better a long—acting reversible contraception. that is the most effective form of contraception. when i sayjust anyone going in and getting out off the shelf, i mean inappropriately young kids. there are many countries

that have introduced this, some in scandinavia, and canada, and all of their data suggest it is not misused, it is treated very respectfully. itjust means that there are not so many unplanned pregnancies. is there any indication that this is likely to happen? i very much hope so. the people running our health service, i‘m sure that they would want the best outcomes for girls and women. this is that the massive change, just trying to build the services this isn‘t a massive change, just trying to build the services around the needs of women and take away some of the barriers to access. currently, there are 205,000 abortions performed last year in england and wales. what impact could something like this have on a figure like that? it could have a significant effect. we also knew that it is not the teenage pregnancies that

are going up, that has actually gone right down, it is women in their later reproductive years who are telling us that they find it difficult to access contraception, who than finding themselves with than finding themselves with an unplanned and unwanted pregnancy and they are requesting an abortion. there is a clear theme to this, that if we make access easier for women, we do ensure that they don‘t have so many problems to deal with. as you rightly said, it does reduce the amount of services we are using, and that would reduce our costs. one key source of renewable energy is offshore wind turbines. they produce electricity which is now often cheaper, but much of their potential remains untapped. as part of our series ‘climate defenders‘ alongside the climate conference, freya cole has been to denmark to meet an inventor at the heart of the wind industry. wind, the invisible source of energy which now has the potential to change the world. this

used to be, we like it, but can we afford it? not the question is, how can we afford not to? from a young age, henrikjim watt could be done to reduce the natural and free source of electricity. we have very few natural resources in denmark, but when we do have his wind, and a lot of it. henrik created his first wind turbine at the age of 16 and 1991 he opened the worlds first offshore wind farm and his design for the modern wind turbine and the title of the danish concept, and that concept has shaped the wind industry to what it is today. it had three blades, it had the blades mounted on the

front of the tower. many use to have them on the backside of the tower. that all turned out to be very useful in the early years of the industry. can you see how big it is? it is impressive. his brain works in a completely different way. he understands a lot of the technology and the economics and efficiency. understands a lot of the technology and the economics and efficiencym is efficiency which is henrik‘s biggest motivation, one of the biggest motivation, one of the biggest blades that henrik has helped design is 94 metres long. the plate as one seamless piece of fibreglass with newjoints. while the blades have grown in size, the costs are shrinking. according to a new study by the paris—based international energy agency, the costs are set to fall a further 60% by 2040. every time these plates make a full rotation this turbine generates enough power for the

average european household for a day, so there is no denying the strength in wind energy, but for this industry to make a meaningful impact worldwide, there are still challenges to overcome. around the world, the untapped potential of offshore wind is fast, especially when you move further from shore into deeper waters. the answer is floating wind turbines. according to the international energy agency, floating turbines could unlock enough potential to meet the worldmy total lack electricity demand 11 times over about 2040. henrik is inventing a fluting wind turbine thatis inventing a fluting wind turbine that is said to be mass produced in a factory. he says that is the key to driving down costs, to make it cheaper than fossil fuel competitors. so the realtrick cheaper than fossil fuel competitors. so the real trick of all of this is getting our products industrialised. the next hurdle for the industry is to capture all of the industry is to capture all of the electricity so it doesn‘t go to

waste when winds drop and work at the best way to feed it back to the grid. i am putting in a lot of effort into developing storage systems, both for day—to—day storage, and also for seasonal storage, and also for seasonal storage so we storage, and also for seasonal storage so we can storage, and also for seasonal storage so we can store energy when we have a lot of wind in the winter time to be used in the summertime. henrik is optimistic. he has watched the industry developed from the possible to the possible, to a future reaching even greater heights. now it‘s time for a look at the weather. hello, there. a couple of days into december and the flavour of winter with early morning frosts and some folk could be an issue over the next couple of days. high pressure over the bulk of the country, but there is weather from toppling over the top of that high producing milder but wetter conditions into the far

north and west of scotland. so outbreaks of rain here through the afternoon. cloudy skies into northern ireland and north—west england by the end of the day. we hold on to the sun chang for the last few hours, but it is a cool story. milder on the far north—west. the rain will move its way out of scotla nd the rain will move its way out of scotland but we keep the cloud and wind direction in the north—west coming from the south. clearer skies elsewhere, suker contrast and the feel of things overnight monday into tuesday. pc nine or 10 degrees into the far north—west of scotland, but it will be a cold and frosty start first thing in the morning, where we could see some freezing fog across the south—east of england. that could have a major impact on some of the airport surrounding london and some of the major routes, as well. tune into your local bbc radio station for travel and traffic updates first thing tuesday morning. the fog will be slow to left. elsewhere, a great day but a mild

affair. 10 degrees on the far north—west is the high. cooler at seven or eight in the south—east corner. the milder air will continue to push on from the west. still a wea k to push on from the west. still a weak weather front on wednesday, bringing outbreaks of rain to scotla nd bringing outbreaks of rain to scotland and into north—west england. folk could be an issue across eastern and south—eastern england during wednesday. top temperatures on wednesday six or 7 degrees in the south—east, double digits out of the west. the real milderair digits out of the west. the real milder air will arrive as we move into thursday. you can see a few scattered showers into the north—west, but ahead this significant weather fronts. that will bring gales in scotland and northern ireland for thursday and some relentless rain for a time which could cause some issues. we cling onto the drier weather in the south—east. it will be mounted by all for thursday, temperatures whiteley in

double digits. —— widely in double digits.

hello, you‘re watching afternoon live.

i‘m ben brown. today at two... bell tolls. the prime minister, the labour leader and the mayor of london lead tributes to the victims of the london bridge terror attack. in cambridge, tributes to jack merritt and saskia jones who were killed. mr merritt‘s girlfriend attended a service along with family and friends. more details emerge of how a polish chef who fought off the attacker was stabbed five times in the struggle. there is a bad guy, he‘s got two knives in his hand, there is blood, there‘s screams, there is chaos. lucas pulls off this long stick, he charges toward the bad guy and he impacts him on the chest. the point of no return on climate change is looming. the stark warning from the united nations as leaders gather in madrid for talks.
