the headlines: ajudge in minneapolis has sentenced the former police officer derek chauvin to 22.5 years in prison for the murder of george floyd. the 46—year—old african american died last year, after chauvin knelt on his neck for more than nine minutes during an arrest. officials in florida say the apartment block that collapsed near miami on thursday — leaving more than 150 people missing — was due to undergo extensive repairs this year. four people are confirmed dead and a major operation is continuing to search for survivors and more bodies. here in the uk, borisjohnson has accepted an apology from his health secretary after pictures emerged of him kissing and embracing a colleague, in breach of covid guidance. matt hancock says he's "let people down" and is "very sorry" after the images showed him with gina coladangelo.

cases of the delta variant of covid—19 first identified in india have risen 46% in a week across the uk. the latest figures from public health england, show the variant now accounts for 95% of new cases. the drive to get more people vaccinated is being stepped up this weekend, with hundreds of drop—in sites, including football stadiums, theatres and shopping centres, open to all adults in england. our health editor, hugh pym, has the latest. walk—in vaccinations and no need to book for all aged 18 and over. that is the attraction at arsenal's emirates stadium and other venues in england from today, what is being billed as a race to the finish by nhs leaders with the aim of offering all adults a firstjab by 19july. in the beginning, there's like, the whole rumours — is it safe? what's in the vaccine? but i think the more people get it, the confidence grows.

and also being arsenal, like, supporters, like... ..it does help. you get to see the stadium. hopefully we can have a normal life again. officials monitoring this thread of the virus say it is important to get both doses to get maximum protection. the office for national statistics survey estimates the number of weekly cases and isn't affected by temporary surge testing. there was an increase from the middle of may, though still well short of the peak in january. the ons says one in 440 people in england had the virus last week. in scotland, it was one in 220. both increases on the previous week. wales has one in 830, and northern ireland with one in 720. the trend was said to be uncertain.

high case rates have been seen in some communities of the north—west of england, like blackburn. they have been driven by the delta variant first identified in india. but officials and experts argue that vaccines have at least reduced the risk of becoming seriously ill. it's dominant, it is causing a lot of infections. we've seen infections rising. and we also see, on the plus side, that the vaccines are still effective in the face of this variant, both in relation to hospitalisation and also deaths. much still depends on testing and tracing. after poor performance, including long waits, the system in england was criticised by the spending watchdog last year. in a new report, there are still said to be pressing challenges their overall performance against targets has improved. testing played a key part in assessing the risk that pilot events like the fa cup final. out of 58,000 spectators at nine venues, just 28 cases were later identified. ministers say more trials, including at wimbledon, will now take place.

have restaurants, you have to have restaurants, you have to have bars and entertainment. ade at the ministry of sound backin ade at the ministry of sound back in 2017. time now for something a little more sedate. backin something a little more sedate. back in 2018, carmen headed to taiwan to explore a gigantic new art centre about to reopen, claiming to be the biggest in the world. and in amongst the massive performance and exhibition spaces, she got to fulfil one of my childhood dreams, playing one of those huge dramatic pipe organs. yeah, i'm prettyjealous of that one. this is the wae wu ying, taiwan's new national art centre. the centre has been built to become a fixture of the international performance circuit. this might look like a big empty warehouse but we are actually backstage at one of the more intimate auditoriums here, that can seat around 1200

trip across the uk. i will be in wales, exploring cardiff and beyond, and finding out how this very rodent is helping the fight against climate change. that's next week, but don't forget to check us out on social media for a whole host of inspirational ideas of things to see and do when we cannot travel again, which hopefully won't be too far away. till next time though, from me, lucy hedges, and everyone else here on the show, it's goodbye. hello there. friday evening brought some quite dramatic weather for some of us, especially across parts of england. through the western side of the midlands, there was some heavy, thundery rain. that was how it looked for a weather watcher in south staffordshire.

and then to the north—east of london, and up into essex, some really vicious thunderstorms, with reports of localised flash flooding and even reports of a tornado in east london, or at the very least some squally gusty winds in amongst the showers, which did cause some damage. and the weather system responsible will still be quite close by as we head through this weekend. it will become slow moving across northern france, but from time to time, it will throw showers or longer spells of rain back in our direction. and we will see some showers during saturday, across england and wales particularly. through east anglia, into the midlands and wales, we could see some particularly heavy, thundery ones during the afternoon. more cloud for north—east england, south—east scotland. some patchy rain here. brighter skies for northern scotland and for northern ireland, and top temperatures between 1a and 22 degrees. so, some of those heavy showers in the south will continue during saturday evening and some more persistent rain is likely to start to slide across the channel islands, and that will come into play across southern counties of england as we get

into the first part of sunday. elsewhere, we start sunday on a mainly dry note. those are your temperatures for sunday morning, nine to 1a degrees. so this weather system that will become very slow moving through the weekend is likely to throw a band of rain back northwards as we go through the day on sunday. there is uncertainty aboutjust how far north the rain will get, but it's likely to affect southern counties of england. it may spread into south wales and parts of the midlands as well. further north, it should be largely dry, with patchy cloud and some spells of sunshine. i think thicker cloud across the far north—west of scotland and temperatures between 18 and 22 degrees in most places. so, to sum up for the weekend, we will see some spells of sunshine, but there will be a few showers around on saturday. some of those could be quite heavy. and potentialfor some more persistent rain in southern parts as we head through sunday. and southern areas could see further rain during the week ahead. some of that rain

could be quite heavy. further north, it looks drier. some of the highest temperatures likely to be across scotland, up to 2a degrees.
