good the cafe and the book shop. good luck. thank you. now it's time for a look at the weather with nick miller. hello. if it is a bank holiday where you are, you will no doubt have noticed it's not a particularly warm one out there, but it is dry across the uk. variable cloud with a view bright or sunny spells coming through, just a light breeze and temperatures for the most part just around 15—17 degrees. a few spots in south wales and southern england reaching to the giddy heights of 18. where skies are clear tonight, there will be clear spells around, it's going to be another chilly one but temperatures will hold up in northern ireland as cloud and some outbreaks of rain move in, reaching into the western isles later in the night. remember these are towns and city temperatures so rural spots will be colder when it's clear, just a few places getting to the mid and low single figures again as we start the day tomorrow. early rain for northern ireland clearing away eastwards, then it brightens up. through scotland we will see some mostly light and patchy rain spreading further east is the day goes on. for england and wales, staying dry. a good deal of cloud around

but again a few bright or sunny spells coming through and now with a southerly breeze, those temperatures will be just a little bit higher. hello, this is bbc news. the headlines: travel company tui launches an investigation into claims that some passengers were ignoring coronavirus guidance on a flight from a greek island linked to 16 covid—i9 cases. it was quite scary, to be honest. as soon as we boarded, we realised that many of the passengers hadn't really been educated about the wearing of facemasks. calls for next summer's gcse and a level exams to be put back to make up for teaching time lost during the lockdown. the government's month—long eat out to help out scheme ends today — but some restaurant owners want it to be extended. the charge on single—use carrier bags is to be extended

to all shops in england — and the cost is to double to iop. now on bbc news, the manchester united defender and england international speaks to the bbc s dan roan 7 and says he feared for his life and thought he was being kidnapped when he was arrested on the island of mykonos. since he left a greek courthouse on saturday, harry maguire has not been seen or heard. in his absence, he's been found guilty of assaulting police and handed a suspended sentence after a night out on mykonos went wrong, but finally, the united and england star has broken his silence, telling me what it was like to spend two nights in custody. harry, good to see you, thanks for your time today. first of all, how have you been the last couple of days? how are you now, how tough has it been these few days? it's been tough. a situation which i didn't expect to find myself in.

a terrible night, what happened. it's been tough for myself, my family, my friends. and yeah, like you say, it's been something that i didn't expect. i found myself in the situation now. mentally i'm getting better, i'm a strong person, at the moment my family are probably suffering a little bit more than myself. so, i'm sure i will look after them. what was it like spending two nights in greek police cells? it was really hard. it's not something that i ever want to do again. i don't wish it on anybody. it's the first time i've ever been inside a prison. yeah, it's been hard for myself but probably it has been a lot harder for my family, for the girls who was there that night and seeing everything, they're the ones who are probably suffering a little bit more. we will come to exactly what happened in a moment. the last time we saw

you was when you left court on saturday and as you know on tuesday, we learned that you were found guilty. what was that moment like when you heard that the judges had found you guilty? it was horrible. it was such a quick turnaround, we got the pages for the transcript for the court on the evening before, a big document all in greek so we had to translate it. i hardly had any chance to speak to my lawyer. so, it all happened so quick. we absolutely did not expect the trial to go ahead but when it did, obviously, it was just trying to keep your mind focused. when they delivered the verdict, i couldn't quite believe it to be honest. talk us through the events of thursday night last week. what exactly happened, how did it begin? well, it began by obviously

going on holiday in couples, with me, my brother, his girlfriend, two friends and their girlfriends and my little sister. we had drinks in a place called bombier. we text the guy can we get picked up and meet us here. for some reason the driver was 20 minutes late. we were outside waiting for the minibus, we were going back to the villa. these two men approached my little sister, asked her where she was from, she responded and then my fiance fern had seen my little sister's eyes going to the back of her head. she ran over, she was fainting. sorry. people were pointing at the two men and then as everyone was shouting and screaming trying to point out the men who we felt were the two

who had done what they had done, three greek men got involved all in plainclothes. and they weren't really trying to cause a big argument or scuffle, just a lot of shouting and commotion. no fighting as what has been reported. nothing, no punches thrown. hopefully we can get the cctv from the event and everyone will see. they were just being a little aggressive with what they were doing and eventually the bus turned up and everyone‘s concern was daisy. so we managed to get everyone on the bus and literally that was it. we went straight to the minibus driver and told him to take us back to the villa and then we were going to go to the hospital. daisy was at this point coming in and out of consciousness to be

fair, she recovered fairly quickly so after a couple of minute she had come round and didn't know what happened. we just told him to take us back to the villa which was 15—20 minutes away, it must have turned left on this road and after about 5—10 minutes and, it stopped and parked up alongside the road and we looked outside and there was eight men surrounding the bus all in plainclothes. the doors fly open. i was the first to react in terms of i went to the door the first. they threw me off the bus. my mate was the second one, they threw him off the bus. so we were just stood outside the bus while a couple of men on the bus all dressed in plain clothes and they start getting a bit rough and aggressive with the girls. and at this point, a lot of people have said before that we were getting robbed. my initial thought was that we were getting kidnapped. me and my friend ran. we ran about 50 metres.

i could still see the bus. could still see the bus. i phoned my agent, put a lot of messages into a group chat of people who were looking after us and mykonos. and then i thought we need to start walking back to the bus. i could always see the bus but i got myself some distance so i could make this phone call. and as we were walking back, four men started walking towards us. i looked at my mate and i was like, what do we do? i looked behind us and they had circled the perimeter while we were waiting on the phone and four men started closing in from behind. they started running towards us. we got down on our knees, we put our hands in the air.

and then theyjust started hitting us. handcuffed me, they were hitting my legs, saying my career is over, no more football. "you won't play again." and at this point, i thought "there's no chance. "these are police or i don't know who they are. so i tried to run away. i had one hand in the handcuff, this is where the charges have come from. they said it was resisting arrest and they're saying what the assault is. no punches have been thrown. they said i hurt someone‘s back while i was running because i was trying to run away because i didn't know who these guys were, i did not believe they were the police and eventually

they caught us, they put us in the handcuffs, we didn't get away but i was in the handcuffs and put us down in the so—called prison. the next minute my brother sits next to us and i asked him what they did to him, and i don't want to speak on his story because it's not coming from his mouth, but they said they went up to him and said you are his brother, grabbed him and put him alongside me. we were there for half an hour, they were just abusing us in terms of telling me my football career was over, no more football and then after half an hour they put me in a cell and that was probably the time that i felt a little bit of relief, as crazy as it sounds, because there were other people in the cell and they told me to calm down and that i was in prison. that's the first time i believed i was actually ever in prison. and at that moment where was your sister daisy and where was your fiancee? at this moment they were on the bus, they got off the bus, they took off my brother and they were taunting the girls on the bus.

they went up to my sister and said you are his sister and laughed in herface. how did they know you were a premier league footballer, did they recognise you, did you tell them? i don't think so. i think they recognised me from what happened in mykonos town centre. because as soon as i went on to my knees and they come at me and i know especially there was a strong image of one guy who was the most aggressive of them all who was hitting my legs and saying football is over. you think he might have recognised you or did you say who you were to him at this point? no, i did not speak to any of them. they did not speak to us, they did not show us the badges, they didn't do anything, they were just plainclothes. so you think this attack at what became clear was a police station, was it all stemmed from the brawl, this disagreement, this altercation that had occurred a few minutes before amid this anxiety and panic

over what happened to your sister? i think it stems from that. but one thing which is strange, we told the minibus driver to take us to the villa, he has dropped us at the so—called police station without telling us. so, we get to this police station, we parked on the side of the road and we have eight men who were dressed in plainclothes surrounding our bus and started being really aggressive. and that's pretty much where the assault come from on my behalf. there were no punches thrown as what is been reported. and even in this statement, they say the assault has come from me being aggressive when i was trying to run away. the court heard that you abused the police, is that true? on that statement, i am pretty sure they said that i hurt a policeman‘s back and arm. is that true? when i had my hand in the air

in the handcuff when i tried running away, i didn't realise they were the police, i still thought i was being kidnapped. i don't think i hurt him. put it this way, i didn't hurt him as much as they hurt me. how bad did they hurt you? they hit me on the legs. it wasn't on my mind i was in that much of a panic, fear, scared for my life. you feared for your life? yeah, for sure, all the way through it. until i got into the prison cell, the panic and anxiety did not come away for me. the court heard that you offered and tried to bribe the police that you said, "do you know who i am? "i play for man united, i'm very rich, i can pay you, let us go." those were the quotes. did you try to bribe the police? no. "do you know who i am?"

i knew they knew who i was — five minutes before they were beating me up say my career was over so i knew they knew who i was for i had seen that statement, it isjust ridiculous. you categorically deny every trying to bribe the police? yeah, for sure. there was never any bribing involved. at the moment, we were in the entrance of the prison, we were so distraught, we were crying. i still didn't believe where i was. i actually saw one police officer in uniform walked past. and i still couldn't bring myself to believe i was in a police station with what had just gone on. what do you put it down to? what you think way behind their actions as you describe? was it jealousy? were they trying to make an example of you? where they are angry at you? was it a case of misunderstanding? what do you think led to that level of violence? i don't know. the answer is i can't

pinpoint what or why. i know some of them were more aggressive more than others. i have pictures of people in my mind who was the aggressive ones and so does my friend to him as well. so, it's been going through my mind but i can't answer that question. whether it was, like you say, jealousy, stitched up, misunderstanding, i really don't know. so, you deny abusing, assaulting the police, and trying to bribe them. and, yet, the police testified against you, they said you did do that and the judges agreed you had. how did that make you feel when they believed that side of the story? it made me feel angry, the situation, what we went through, in terms of giving us the amount of time we had for a trial,

i had a pretty good idea of the outcome. you've appealed and been granted a retrial which means your conviction is nullified, you are an innocent man in the eyes of the greek legal system. how confident are you that you will eventually clear your name? i have great faith in the greek law, the retrial will give us more time to prepare. gather the evidence, allow witnesses into the court. and i'm really confident the truth will be told and come out. you are a high—profile guy, there are plenty of places you could go where you are in private, shut away, not in a public place. do you accept you were, in a way asking for trouble being in that place that night? no. i think it could have happened anywhere. i love greece. i love the people there. i've been to six or seven or eight greek islands, i go most years in my time off. and my family, we love greece. i don't feel like i would have done

anything different in terms of regretting going to mykonos. i've been before and had a great time. so, no, idon‘t. who do you owe an apology to, if anybody? i don't feel i owe an apology to anybody. an apology is when you've done something wrong. i regret being in the situation. i don't wish it on anybody. the situation has made it difficult. i play one of the biggest clubs in the world so i regret putting the fans and club through this. but i did nothing wrong. i found myself in a situation where it could have happened to anybody. and anywhere. you were found guilty of abusing and assaulting the police and of attempting to bribe them. given all that, how can you remain captain of one of the biggest clubs in the world? obviously, you see a lot of reports going around...

and it is such a huge honour to be captain of manchester united, something i'm really proud of, it is a massive privilege to play for the club, never mind be a captain. it's not my decision to make, but one thing i'll say is how supportive the club have been, from top to bottom, they've been great with me and i thank them for that. how much does it mean to you to hear, as it stands, they seem to want you to remain as captain, they've backed you. how much does it mean to you at this time? it means everything. obviously, it has been such a difficult time. my main focus is obviously family. the next thing, next to my family is football. so, playing for manchester united is something i love. and the club, honestly, has been great with me. do you understand why gareth southgate withdrew you from the england squad after he initially named you, after he heard the verdict? yes, i understand.

obviously, i'm disappointed. i love playing for my country. i'm physically and mentally ready to play. so i am disappointed but of course i understand. as ever with these cases there's been a lot of speculation, reporting of things which were a little unclear about how much money was spent, about how much alcohol was consumed. i have to ask about that kind of thing. were you worse for wear, were you drunk, was that a factor in all this? i'm not going to say i didn't have a drink all day. anybody who knows me, who has been out with me knows how i am when i've had a few drinks. i'm always aware. i wasn't really drunk. i knew what going off. just found myself in a bad situation. should you have avoided that situation, looking back now? you were filmed with members of the public, people taking a photograph of you earlier in the week. you didn't need to be there. looking back now, was that a mistake? no. i think us footballers get a bit

of stick for trying to stay away from everything, and it isn't how i want to live my life. i've always been really open. if someone wants a picture, they get it. something signing, i sign it. i don't feel the need for that. it has probably changed my mind on that. this long season has been extended for obvious reasons. you've lived life so carefully, you and your colleagues, being tested so regularly because of the pandemic. inevitably, this time is for you to relax but do you think it is a mistake for you to be in such a busy environment? no. honestly, we have had a long, hard season and we wanted to get away for a break, and i don't see myself regretting going out there. i've been to mykonos before and had a great time. i've been with my family before and had a great time. i can't say i regret going out. i think i found myself in a bad situation. how much harm have you done

to your reputation, do you think? how much do you regret that? in terms of my reputation and character, my character and personality will stay the same. obviously, it's not nice seeing bad reports on yourself and everything that has gone off and the stories that have gone through. obviously, this clears things up because no one actually knew what went off that night. we had a court case and, still, the stories coming out of the court case are so far away from the truth, it's incredible. my character and things will stay the same, my personality will stay the same, i am strong mentally and i will come over this. there will be some who don't believe you, inevitably. how much does it bother you and what would your message be to them? it doesn't bother me, to be honest. my friends and family know what happened that night, that's the main thing, the people who are close to you, the ones who trust you. my conscience is clear, i know exactly what happened that night.

you say you are strong mentally but you're clearly shaken up by this and have been adversely affected, it's clear to see. how confident are you that you can deal with all of this, put it to the back of your mind and still perform on the pitch? would it inevitably affect your performances? obviously, it's been a tough time but speaking about it, it makes me angry, i feel myself working up a bit when i speak about the events. obviously, speaking about what happened to the girls, especially my sister. i must ask you quickly about how it all began, and where daisy fits in all this. the lawyer of the police officers the other day say he cast doubt on that story. he was suggesting it was made up. a convenient story to justify what happened. again, you are absolutely categorical that something happened to daisy but you don't know what it was? you think there was some kind of attack on daisy? you're sure about that, are you?

i'm confident something happened with daisy. there was a mark on her arm, she had a stamp mark on her arm. a needle mark on her arm as well. i'm100% confident. she was fine, she wasn't drunk, and then she found herself in unconsciousness. so, yes, forsure, something happened to her. your suspicion is it was some kind of attack by some individuals? yes, at the time we had a good idea on the two people who was involved but obviously it's suspicion, we didn't actually see them physically see them do what they did to her. the lawyer representing some of the police officers said this week daisy never mentioned any kind of injection or attack when they spoke to her, thereby casting doubt over that version of events. what do you think about that?

it made me angry because not one of the police department interviewed any of our people. i didn't get interviewed. chris didn't, joe didn't and not one person on the bus. i'd like to see a record of this interview because daisy didn't get interviewed. that same lawyer said it was shocking unsportsmanship that you hadn't apologised to the greek police. do you want to apologise to them now? definitely not, i won't be apologising for something... where i've done nothing wrong. even though it might help your case? he suggested if you were to do that, certain complaints might be withdrawn. i wouldn't be apologising even if it was. i'm sure i would have seen something they might consider dropping the case but i wouldn't be apologising now. on a matter of principle? for sure. this could take time.

we learned even though the initial trial happened at incredible pace and speed, the appeal could take a year or longer. how hard will it be hanging over you for all that time? i think i will get over it pretty quickly. i know what happened that night, my conscience is so clear, i know the truth. for me, i move on and i'm mentally strong. as i say, you speak to my family and you see i am probably one of the best at dealing with it. what sort of state are they in, then? your dad was in court the other day and your brother was a defendant alongside you. you had a friend in court the other day testifying on your behalf, and daisy is back home. but how are they individually? yes, i think my brother is a bit of a worrier, more than me. but he is getting better. my dad is great with the support he has shown. it has been bad and tough for my mum and daisy.

tell me about gareth and ollie. you've had conversations with both men and they rate you highly. gareth spoke glowingly about you. how hard were those conversations where you had to explain what had happened? it was really hard. i have great respect for both. they've both been magnificent for my career. gareth has shown great faith in me ever since i've made my debut for england. i played every time i've been fit and available. i know how much he respects me and the trust he's is shown in me. but they've shown great support to me and that is the only thing i can say, they've been great, on the phone, showing great support and i thank them for that. final thought — an emotional time for you, especially when you're talking about your sister, do you feel at all that because of the fame you have that you are in some way responsible for what has occurred ? does that make you feel

in some way guilty? i can't really say any of us were responsible for the night. if you weren't a famous footballer, it wouldn't of happened, is that how you feel? i feel like it has a part to play. for sure. hello. we're seeing out the month with another rather cool day for august out there. and i will show you a view from north yorkshire this morning, which was home to the coldest spot in england to start the day today, where the temperature fell down to 0.6 celsius. high pressure, though, keeping the uk dry today, but there are weather systems gathering in the atlantic, so we are going to see a bit of rain again before the week is done — of course, as we get into september. but the month is ending with high pressure, so it is dry across the uk. making for a fairly decent day if it is a bank holiday where you are, with broken cloud

and sunny spells. it is just clearly not the warmest bank holiday, with temperatures mainly around 15 to 17 degrees, with just a few spots getting up to 18. for what it's worth, just a reminder of how it looked last year. this was a view on the late august bank holiday in yorkshire, and these were the temperatures on the 26th of august, that's when the bank holiday fell last year. the hottest on record. london getting up to 33 degrees, but some warmth in wales as well, as temperatures reached into the mid 20s. clearly, then, it is a much cooler end to august, and another chilly one for the time of year overnight tonight, where there are clear spells. these are town—city temperatures. rural spots will be a bit colder if you're clear. down to mid to low single figures in places, and there will be a bit of rain moving through northern ireland. it clears tomorrow morning, then it brightens up, but then we will see mostly light and patchy rain tomorrow, feeding across scotland as the day goes on whereas england and wales will stay dry. still a good deal of cloud around, a few sunny spells. notice the temperatures are a little bit higher. there is now a southerly breeze.

that is a wind that gets stronger as we get into wednesday, as a deeper area of low pressure approaches with these weather fronts, and of course from those we are going to see some wetter weather. there will be some heavy bursts of rain moving through northern ireland, through scotland, into northern england, western parts of england and for wales. there will be some through the east and south—east of england that stay dry, seeing still a bit of sunshine. these are average wind speeds from gusts around the northern, western isles could be closer to 50 mph at times, and the temperatures, well, still mostly rooted into the teens. by thursday, we'll see that weather front taking the rain southwards. there will be a front just clearing through. ahead of that, maybe still a bit of warmth to be had as temperateres briefly creep into the low 20s, but most of us having a breezy day with sunny spells and a few showers.

this is bbc news. the headlines... travel company tui launches an investigation into claims that some passengers were ignoring coronavirus guidance on a flight from a greek island linked to 16 covid—i9 cases. it was quite scary, to be honest. as soon as we boarded, we realised that many of the passengers hadn't really been educated about the wearing of facemasks. calls for next summer's gcse and a—level exams to be put back — to make up for teaching time lost during the lockdown.
