on the anniversary of a deadly explosion that destroyed parts of the city. demonstrators are angry no one has been held accountable for the blast. the olympic athlete from belarus — who refused her team's orders to fly home from the games — has landed in warsaw after being granted a humanitarian visa. fierce fighting continues between afghan government forces and the taliban in the southern city of lashkar gah —— leaving destruction in the city. there's growing concern about the safety of tens of thousands of civilians in the area. in the uk, all 16 and 17—year—olds — will be offered a pfizer covid vaccine in the coming weeks. around one and a half million teenagers could be included in the plan.

hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are olivia utley, assistant comment editor at the telegraph and rob merrick, deputy political editor of the independent. it always seems to be that time of night with me. good job they're going to do most of the talking but before they do, i have to bring you up—to—date on the front pages. the metro leads with the announcement that all 16 and i7—year—olds in the uk are to be offered first doses of the covid vaccine before they go back to school. the financial times reports on a warning from the the world health organization, who say booster shots in richer nations should be delayed until poorer countries receive more vaccines. the i writes that there will be changes to the traffic light system forforeign holidays,

with arrivals from france to england no longer having to quarantine if they have been fully vaccinated. in the past few minutes scotland has also announced it will follow england with the changes. that's what you can hear me wrestling with, we have just printed it here. those who arrive in edinburgh or glasgow from france will not have to isolate. the daily telegraph adds that seven countries will be added to the green list destinations — while india and the united arab emirates will be move from red to amber list. the guardian writes that the announcement will raise questions about whether the government is being complacent about the spread of the beta variant. the times reports that germany, austria, slovenia, slovakia, latvia, romania and norway will all move on to the green list. english travellers will be able to go there without facing quarantine on their return home. the daily mirror's headline is "french reconnection" as france's amber—plus status is removed from 4am on sunday. and the daily mail — like many other

of tomorrow's front pages — celebrates 13—year—old sky brown, who became team gb�*s youngest ever summer olympics medal winner today. i think she might be the youngest ever medal winnerfrom i think she might be the youngest ever medal winner from any country. quite an achievement. let's begin. i may have got that wrong can i think we talked about a 12—year—old winning silver in that same competition. so i got that wrong straight out. she's our youngest one anyway. let's talk now to olivia and rob. would you like to kick us out before i make any more foe pies? french greek connection in the mirror. , , , ., the mirror. yes, this is the great news that _ the mirror. yes, this is the great news that from _ the mirror. yes, this is the great news that from sunday, - the mirror. yes, this is the great news that from sunday, you - the mirror. yes, this is the great news that from sunday, you can | news that from sunday, you can travel from france and come back again without having to quarantine. if you have a second time over there that's been sitting empty and you have a chance to use it. if you weren't well prepared enough to have a second home, then you have already

made your holiday plans weeks and weeks ago. he may have well have turned stage to page two and it said it's come too late because unless you have got some home lined up to me of already made other holiday plans and it's far too late to take advantage of this decision affecting france, which of course for the past two or three weeks has been an s amber plus category where you have to quarantine when you came back because of the high cases of the beta variant, even though it's those variants that where thousands of miles away, not france. so the government seems to have got its ducks in a row, but perhaps too late. i ducks in a row, but perhaps too late. , ., ., ., , ., ., late. i should add a bit of an additional _ late. i should add a bit of an additional british _ late. i should add a bit of an additional british airways i late. i should add a bit of an additional british airways in | late. i should add a bit of an i additional british airways in the last couple of hours committee airport saying that the government now needs to take opportunity to develop a sustainable, portable system to get confidence to buckhead through the winter and into next

year. it rather sounds like the airport is already accepting that probably the rest of the summer, not a lot it's going to change. british airways were making the point of the chairman and ceo, that they have witnessed emotional scenes of bringing travellers back at last being able to be reunited —— reunited with family and friends, but they met more or less —— low risk countries have been added, but the economic recovery will depend on getting the travel sector thriving again. it's difficult for the government because whatever they announce, they are going to get attacked for it or criticised, someone isn't going to be happy, and usually the people who aren't happy other one to make more noise than the people who are pleased. i think we shouldn't _ the people who are pleased. i think we shouldn't underestimate - the people who are pleased. i think we shouldn't underestimate that i the people who are pleased. i think. we shouldn't underestimate that this is exceptionally good news for people notjust you want is exceptionally good news for people not just you want to is exceptionally good news for people notjust you want to go on holiday, but people who want to visit their family. holiday, but people who want to visit theirfamily. i holiday, but people who want to visit their family. i was slightly shy —— shrugging it off, because as i talked about lots of people who don't have the luxury of second homes aren't necessarily particularly red —— rich and saving up particularly red —— rich and saving up for— particularly red —— rich and saving up for the — particularly red —— rich and saving up for the holidays and cancelled them _ up for the holidays and cancelled them long ago because they can't afford _ them long ago because they can't afford this kind of certainty. on the other— afford this kind of certainty. on the other hand, there are people who have not— the other hand, there are people who have not been able to see their family— have not been able to see their family for— have not been able to see their family for months on end. i glanced on twitter—

family for months on end. i glanced on twitter and saw a girl who has not seen — on twitter and saw a girl who has not seen her family in a year and halfand— not seen her family in a year and half and half and she burst into tears _ half and half and she burst into tears when she saw this. it is really— tears when she saw this. it is really good news. i do understand why people are frustrated because you are _ why people are frustrated because you are right, you can say that the government— you are right, you can say that the government will be shattered at whatever they do. but i think the key is _ whatever they do. but i think the key isjust— whatever they do. but i think the key isjust clarity. whatever they do. but i think the key is just clarity. so i whatever they do. but i think the key isjust clarity. so i think whatever they do. but i think the key is just clarity. so i think they could _ key is just clarity. so i think they could have, _ key is just clarity. so i think they could have, what america has done, they have _ could have, what america has done, they have quite a tough red list, and you — they have quite a tough red list, and you just can't go, basically, to read _ and you just can't go, basically, to read list _ and you just can't go, basically, to read list countries. the quarantine is extreme — read list countries. the quarantine is extreme to me have to pay a huge amount— is extreme to me have to pay a huge amount of— is extreme to me have to pay a huge amount of money, but that's it. the problem _ amount of money, but that's it. the problem with our list is that there is no _ problem with our list is that there is no certainty at all. you can book a holiday. — is no certainty at all. you can book a holiday, but it may be cancelled and people are going to obviously be worried _ and people are going to obviously be worried for— and people are going to obviously be worried for the rest of the year attout— worried for the rest of the year about what they can book and when and whether it will be moved on to some _ and whether it will be moved on to some list— and whether it will be moved on to some list which shouldn't even —— didnt— some list which shouldn't even —— didn't even— some list which shouldn't even —— didn't even exist yesterday by the time they— didn't even exist yesterday by the time they want to go on holiday. so it's a _ time they want to go on holiday. so it's a messy— time they want to go on holiday. so it's a messy system and i think the government acknowledges that slowly, and common sense is kicking in, but for many— and common sense is kicking in, but for many people that will be too late for— for many people that will be too late for the summer. it�*s

late for the summer. it's interesting, _ late for the summer. it's interesting, isn't - late for the summer. it's interesting, isn't it, - late for the summer. it�*s interesting, isn't it, this is why the travel industry reactor that such possibility —— hostility with the talk of an amber plus list. the moment you did that you are effectively think sooner or later it's going red, which is not much of an incentive for people who have booked any of those countries because they pay to pay an extra 1400 cred if they get caught and it goes red, they can't get back in and the quarantine and government approved hotel. olivia, carry on, and and we were going to the next paper stop blaming, for example, i have written off going on any foreign holiday for the rest of this year. ijust think it's too much effort and the chances are wherever i book will be wiped onto a new list the day before i go, which is stressful and upsetting, so i'm not going to do it. and i'm sure lots of people in the same boat, so i think the uncertainty is the problem and i see what airlines have reacted in such a hostile way. if you made that calculation from you and your family. calculation from you and your famil . ~ ., , _,

calculation from you and your famil. ., , ., family. we have 'ust come back from a holida . family. we have 'ust come back from a holiday. we — family. we have just come back from a holiday. we were _ family. we have just come back from a holiday. we were lucky _ family. we have just come back from a holiday. we were lucky enough - family. we have just come back from a holiday. we were lucky enough to i a holiday. we were lucky enough to get away and get back without any difficulties. there is a lot of hassle in terms of arranging tests, but if your holiday goes well, it's worth it. you don't really know it's going to happen when you ride back, we managed to come back and there weren't huge queues or any queues at security. that's not been everybody�*s experience. so i think it's a gamble that we decided to take and it paid off. it didn't pay for everybody, but i think what you are about the uncertainty, we are not having this amber warning list, but nevertheless, people know that spain is in the government's site, and they know that they are saying advising people to take a lab —based test before you fly back. not even sure how you would do that while on holiday, leaving that aside. it's a huge likelihood that tougher restrictions will be imposed on spain in the next few weeks, and who

is going to book in those circumstances? to is going to book in those circumstances?- is going to book in those circumstances? ., , ., ., circumstances? to be fair to the westminster _ circumstances? to be fair to the westminster government, - circumstances? to be fair to the westminster government, i - circumstances? to be fair to the i westminster government, i should point out that the scottish government to saying exactly the same in its travel advice tonight. we advise people to choose a pcr test, it is recommended, but it is not a legal obligation. so what your criticism earlier about trying to haveit criticism earlier about trying to have it both ways and not taking the tough decisions applies equally to the scottish government as the westminster government on this particular issue, but then again, i suppose they are operating to the same advice, the same professional advice and trying to be consistent with each other to make it slightly less confusing than it would otherwise be. you want to take us onto the guardian, millions get halladay buist as quarantine roles are relaxed. you know, it's good news for some countries. most of the countries, doesn't seem to be too many switching. it gives people a few more options. it many switching. it gives people a few more options.— many switching. it gives people a few more options. it seems unlikely to me that the _

few more options. it seems unlikely to me that the country _ few more options. it seems unlikely to me that the country has - few more options. it seems unlikely to me that the country has been - to me that the country has been added to the green list and will be huge holiday destinations. i don't know whether germany is leading britain's in without vaccinating when you arrive there. this is a problem with italy. they were requiring to vaccinate. so we can make the rules that we do, but that doesn't mean that the rules will apply in our favour doesn't mean that the rules will apply in ourfavour in the doesn't mean that the rules will apply in our favour in the countries that we might be heading to. i think you just mention india. that's a fascinating one. indiana is where britain daily dallied and refused to put it on the red list in the weeks that everybody was whining about this new variant which had emerged and was heading our way the prime minister was desperately trying to find anti—trade trip and secure post for exit deal, britain played —— paid a huge price at that with the arrival and takeover of the variant from india. now it is going amber, which is a very interesting decision and i'm not quite sure lies behind that. i suppose maybe it's the idea that. i suppose maybe it's the idea that the variant is here now and i can't get any worse from that

direction. n can't get any worse from that direction-— can't get any worse from that direction. .. , ., ., , direction. i can see him doing many cell these are _ direction. i can see him doing many cell these are photo _ direction. i can see him doing many cell these are photo ops _ direction. i can see him doing many cell these are photo ops in - direction. i can see him doing many cell these are photo ops in the - direction. i can see him doing many cell these are photo ops in the last| cell these are photo ops in the last few months anyway, so probably would've been of a wasted trip had brycejohnson finally would've been of a wasted trip had bryce johnson finally got there. let's move on then to talk about the independent, rob. this is a fascinating story. excuse me, let's talk about the telegraph or children giving the coca jam. we talked quite a lot about this in the last review on the front of your paper. you know, it is, again, it's a big operation, this, and there will be those who wonder how necessary it is. �* , those who wonder how necessary it is. �*, ., ,, those who wonder how necessary it is. it's obviously a question which has been causing _ is. it's obviously a question which has been causing a _ is. it's obviously a question which has been causing a lot _ is. it's obviously a question which has been causing a lot of - is. it's obviously a question which has been causing a lot of people. is. it's obviously a question which l has been causing a lot of people for a while. the two sides are on the one hand children aren't particularly at risk from covid, very, very few children have died or been seriously ill from covid. and

there is obviously a tiny risk associated with getting the jab, so you are waiting up these tiny risks and some scientists will come down on one side, and some on the other, and affect risk, if that calculation has got to be made then should adults be making on behalf of children? is that fair? are you essentially think that children should be vaccinated to protect their elders? is that a principal we want to go down? lots of interesting ethical questions and the compromise that they seem to have reached is saying that children shouldn't be jab. they are now saying that 16 and 17—year—olds who are epidemiologic a similar, physiologically similarto 18 and 19—year—olds who are allowed the vaccine and who are capable of making informed choices and are treated like adults in other respects at the lobby at the moment are now allowed to get the jab. they will likely be jabbed in school along with the rest of the vaccination programmes. younger children will not be jabbed. it will be interesting to see how long that

the variant at this stage. who knows what's new variants will emerge. obviously one question is about our preparedness for this pandemic and care they be dead prepare for the wrong pandemic and there was a lot more that we could have done, but we will have to ask difficult questions about where the virus came from and backis about where the virus came from and back is incredibly important because if we don't want to make the same mistakes again, we will have to find that out, and we have had facebook saying that people were not allowed to suggest that it could have been a leak from a wuhan to suggest that it could have been a leakfrom a wuhan lab. the us are now investigating that theory thinking it probably has legs to it. so that is a question that we are really going to have to look into. he also obviously have to talk about how it was initially allowed to spread so fast. tiny officials were warning the who, the telegraph is reporting us a few days ago, about human transmission of the covid virus way before it came out

publicly, but somehow they were silenced. so there will be questions about that as well. i completely agree that now is the time to start asking all of those important questions and part of it will be about the uk's preparedness for this pandemic, but their global questions is about that we need to consider. it's when we will get into the detail of the public inquiry in the spring which will answer these allegations that dominic cummings made about what he says boris johnson says. borisjohnson has denied saying that he was happy to see the bodies pile up. he has rejected that, but it has been out in the debate and it's something that dominic cummings is arguing very strongly. i guess they will help both will have to make their case. he help both will have to make their case. �* , _ ., help both will have to make their case. �* _._ ., 5:1, case. he didn't deny saying over 80s would die. but _ case. he didn't deny saying over 80s would die. but the _ case. he didn't deny saying over 80s would die. but the bodies _ case. he didn't deny saying over 80s would die. but the bodies piling - case. he didn't deny saying over 80s would die. but the bodies piling up, | would die. but the bodies piling up, i think to would die. but the bodies piling up, i think to be — would die. but the bodies piling up, i think to be specific. _ would die. but the bodies piling up, i think to be specific. this _ would die. but the bodies piling up, i think to be specific. this is - would die. but the bodies piling up, i think to be specific. this is a - i think to be specific. this is a sad story- _ i think to be specific. this is a sad story- so _ i think to be specific. this is a sad story. so there _

in tokyo — including three golds. it's mad, it's absolutely mad. growing up to me you know, i obviously, like a lot of olympians, and dreamed of being here someday and standing on top of the podium, and to do it twice, it's... i had two incredible crews to sail at, and ijust feel really lucky. with, and ijust feel really lucky. yeah, and the support back home has been unreal, so thank you everyone. five of team gb's medals have been won in equestrian, equalling their record haul achieved in london. today, ben mayor won gold in the individual showjumping event, on his horse "explosion w" — after a dramatic six—horsejump—off. mayor completed his run in 37.85 seconds to pip sweden's peder fredricson by 17—hundredths of a second and claim the gold. it's a second olympic title for maher — after winning gold in the team jumping event in london 9 years ago. it's a second olympic title for maher — after winning gold in the team jumping event in london 9 years ago. two medals in boxing for team gb.

frazer clarke won bronze in the super heavyweight division and this was ben whittaker, who said he lost the gold medal, rather than won a silver as he was beaten in the light—heavyweight division by cuba's arlen lopez. and sky brown has become britain's youngest medallist in olympic history, at the age ofjust 13 years and 28 days. she produced a composed final run to finish third in the women's park skateboarding final and claim bronze. it's incredible, i mean, it feels unreal. i'm so happy to be here with all the girls, they were ripping it. it was insane, like, it was a super sick final and qualifier, semi final, it was insane. let's cross to tokyo now and speak to our reporter sarah mulkerrins. sarah, a heartbreaking day for katarina johnson—thompson sarah, a heartbreaking day for katarina johnson— thompson

in the heptathlon. yes, it was. it was the final event late on wednesday night at the olympic stadium and the track and field. she was going in the 200 metres. she had been placed fifth in the heptaholon to line up until that point. this is one of her stronger events, and she started off, she was going well around the bend, and then suddenly, she just pulled up. you can see there was a serious injury for her there. so she got to the bend can and you could just see her there just hoppinh, and it turned out not to be the achilles injury which she has been dealing with over the last year, but actually her right calf. she did fall down. she was getting attention, but as you can see there, she refused the assistance, and she went on to finish that 200 metres. unfortunately, though,

she was disqualified from the race because she had gone outside of her lane. she has subsequently withdrawn from the race. a lot of people disappointed no doubt katerina johnson—thompson will be very disappointed. she is the world champion back in 2019, and we know that she as this great rivalry with belgium, the defending olympic champion, so she is going to see how she goes. she didn't want to speak to any media afterwards. she was pretty upset about it. so she will exit the race at this stage, but heading into day two, it is the dutch athlete who heads the standings as they head into the final day of competition there. it's very early morning here in tokyo. just behind us at tokyo bay, the open water swimming, the marathon for men has got under way. we have hector going for gb in that one in that one, the defending champion in that. we saw sky brown there. it's going to be the turn of the men's today. thank you very much, sarah talking to us from tokyo there. now to cricket, and england began their 5 test series with india in dreadfulfashion. they were bowled out forjust 183 on the first day at trent bridge.

at one point losing 6 wickets for just 22 runs. that collapse sees the visitors with the upper hand, they trail by 162 runs with all 10 wickets still remaining asjoe wilson reports. you don'tjust watch the olympics for 100 metres, nor cricket for 100 balls. there is nottingham, this is a test match... ..and that is out. rory burns gone for none, india celebrating the great traditions resumed. well, that's remarkable waiter service. how does he ever sit down? some mysteries are solved by replays. look here — a little touch on zak crawley�*s back — the spike, out, caught, and observe how that changed the indian captain's mood. so, england's captain was batting. it's not like everything depends onjoe root, just that most things do. well, there's a shot from another batsman, just remembering how this form of cricket goes. johnny bairstow recalled to the team, and a four is still a four in any shirt, any generation.

india thought bairstow was out lbw here, on field umpire said no but wait for the review, replay and then the virat kohli. england 138— four at t. then lawrence courts, gun butler court, gone for naught. how quickly day one went wrong. bring out anderson and broad, try to rescue another collapsing cause. 21 without loss india in the close in reply. four more days if required. do not you actually make you lose your appetite yet. birmingham phoenix beat oval invincibles by six wickets at edgbaston in the men's hundred. set an unlikely target of 173 to win they completed the biggest run chase of the men's tournament yet. needing three from seven balls, chris benjamin steered his side home with style. they move to the top of the table,

with invincibles fifth. earlier, invincibles women beat phoenix by eight wickets with alice capsey hitting the winning runs. invincibles strengthen their grip on third place in the table. phoenix are one off the bottom and unlikely to reach the next stage. the rugby league world cup, which was due to be held in england in the autumn, is set to be postponed until next year. it follows the withdrawal of defending champions australia, and new zealand over player welfare and safety concerns related to covid. the world cup, featuring men's, women's and wheelchair events, was set to start in newcastle in october. an announcement confirming the decision is expected tomorrow. with manchester city closing in on the 100 million pound signing of their england starjack grealish, aston villa have been out spending money already. villa have announced the surprise signing of southampton striker danny ings in a deal thought to be worth 25 million pounds. ings scored 46 goals in 100 appearances for the saints after

joining from liverpool in 2018. its been a busy day for villa. they also announced the signing of winger leon bailey from bayer leverkusen for £25 million pounds. and that's all the sport for now. from me and the rest of the team, bye—bye. hello. low pressure moving in on thursday won't be out of the way until next tuesday. there'll be plenty of heavy downpours between now and then as a result. certainly quite wet across northern ireland during thursday morning. more widely across western parts, even though you may start dry, you'll see rain moving in. that extending further east as the day goes on, replacing any sunny spells to the east. all parts with winds strengthening. brightening up a bit in the afternoon in northern ireland. slow—moving thundery downpours, though, bring a risk of localised flooding here. and temperatures high teens, low 20s. plenty of showers, maybe some thundery, still around as we go on through thursday night and into friday, and some outbreaks of rain towards the north and east of scotland. mid—teens as we start off on friday. that low pressure right across us on friday,

slow—moving torrential downpours threaten the central belt, southern scotland, northern ireland, northern england, north wales and parts of the midlands. few showers running through southern england, maybe not too many here. there will also be a few sunny spells around as well.
