grace, who struggled on valiantly in the first half of the paper review. i'll see you both in about 45 minutes. that's it for the papers. that's it for the papers. if you're in the uk, grace and sam will be back injust over half an hour to look at more of the stories being covered by newspapers and websites here. goodbye for now. hello, i'm marc edwards with your support. harry kane won't play for tottenham in thursday's europa conference league play—off first leg in portugal. the england striker, who reportedly wants to leave the club, wasn't part of the group who flew out today for the game against pacos de ferreira. it's thought kane's still working on his fitness, but could face wolves in the premier league on sunday. i cannot answer this. what i can tell you is that he is better. he is getting his fitness better

and better each day. like you said, he's got to work today, he's got to work tomorrow, and he willjoin the group on friday. saturday we will make the decision with who will be involved in the game. it's been a busy night for celtic supporters, with both their men's and women's teams in european action. the men's team with a good result in glasgow as they beat dutch side az alkmar 2—0, in the first leg of their europa league play—off. but things didn't go so well for the women's side — they've been knocked out in the first qualifying round of the champions league. they were beaten 2—1 by spanish side levante, despite that goal from caitlin hayes. elsewhere, arsenal women begun their campaign to reach the champions league group stage with a win under their new boss jonas eidevall. they beat 0kzhetpes of kazakhstan 4—0 in moscow, nikitta parris with the final goal of the game. glasgow city beat maltese side birkirkara 3—0. glentoran lost 1—0 at swiss champions servette. in the championship, west bromwich albion are top of the table after thrashing sheffield united 4—0

and maintaining their unbeaten start to the season. an own goal from jack robinson and a goalfrom dara 0'shea had the baggies 2—0 up before alex mowatt bagged a third six minutes later. callum robinson then followed close behind to seal a comfortable 4—0 victory. that was enough to see them jump ahead of fulham at the top on goal difference. well in the night's other results, bournemouth scored two goals in the last quarter of an hour to win at birmingham. a first win of the season for derby, whilst qpr spent most of the second half a man down, but still managed to beat middlesborough 4—3, while nottingham forest are still without a point after losing to blackburn. tennis — and andy murray is out of the cincinnati masters, after losing to ninth seed and wimbledon semi finalist, hubert hurkacz. it was the first meeting on the tour between the two players, with two—time champion murray losing a tie break before beaten in straight sets 7—6, 6—3 by the 24—year—old pole.

british number two heather watson is also out. she lost to world number one, ashleigh barty, in straight sets. it was the australian's first match since losing in the first round at the tokyo olympics, and she needed a tie break to beat watson. to golf — and the final women's major of the year gets under way tomorrow. and this year's aig women's 0pen will be extra special for the winner at carnoustie. an increase in prize money means the championship will become the most lucrative one we've seen on the women's calendar. craig templeton reports. don't be fooled by the scenic views. there's a don't be fooled by the scenic views. there's . ., ,., , , .., there's a reason why they call it car nasty- _ there's a reason why they call it car nasty- it _ there's a reason why they call it car nasty. it has _ there's a reason why they call it car nasty. it has deep _ there's a reason why they call it car nasty. it has deep bunkers, | there's a reason why they call it. car nasty. it has deep bunkers, fast fairways, and when the sea breeze picks up, carnoustie becomes one of the toughest courses in the world. this might be the trickiest british open i've played yet. i've heard a 0pen i've played yet. i've heard a lot about this place, i've watched it when the guys played it a few years ago, and honestly it's held the championship quite a lot of

game. she won herfirst major, the pga championship, injune, and added olympic gold and that a few weeks ago. her cv is certainly an impressive read — but carnoustie is so often a different story. craig templeton, bbc news. cricket — an dengland have rung the changes for the third test against india, which starts at headingly next week, following their defeat at lords which left them 1—0 down in the series. yorkshire batsman dawid malan has been recalled to the squad. he's been a mainstay of the t20 side, but last featured in test cricket during the 2018 season against india. meanwhile, dom sibley has been dropped. his highest score in four innings against india in the current series was 28. zak crawley is also out of the 15—man squad. it's another double header in the hundred today — in the women's match, london spirit have beaten welsh fire by seven wickets. heather knight sealing the win with a four. spirit could have made it into the eliminators, had they made 96 off 41 balls, but struggled initially

to get the runs in and had to settle for the match. fire are bottom of the table. in the men's game, neither side could reach the knockout stage, but welsh fire finished off their campaign on a high, beating spirit by three wickets. qais ahmad hit consecutive boundaries to see his side home. and that's all the sport for now. but from me, marc edwards, and the rest of the team, bye—bye. hello. it feels a little bit like our weather has been sulking so far this week — kind of stuck in a rut of grayness and lingering cloud. it's not in a great hurry to get out of that position through today, either. we did see some sunshine on wednesday across central and eastern england, and i'm hopeful we will see some for at least a time today — this break in the clouds ahead of a weak weather front coming in from the northwest.

—— from the west. so through the morning, some sunnier skies working their way eastwards, perhaps something a bit brighter behind that band of shower re—rain for the rest for the afternoon. —— further west. but still, a lot of cloud for many of us, and temperatures a little down on where they should be for the time of year. a few heavier showers roaming around through the evening, but overnight, guess what — it's all pretty quiet and light winds, a lot of cloud, quite misty and murky around the coast and for the hills. friday daytime, you look at that chart, you think, oh, things might start to get moving. well, not in any great hurry, i'm afraid of. this weather front will push some rain into northern ireland through the day, throwing some showers towards wales, as well. potentially, though, with a little bit of a strengthening southerly breeze, we could break the cloud up a little bit more across southern and eastern england. looking pretty gloomy and murky there across scotland and generally across the northern half of the uk. for the weekend, however, this low will make more of an effort, and friday into saturday, this front pushes slightly further eastwards.

the notable thing that it does, though, is drag up some warmer air from the south for central and eastern england. so after a week where temperatures have set below average, we could actually see some significant warmer weather, at least briefly this weekend. but there is a price to pay. saturday, we will see i think temperature is getting into the mid—20s across central and eastern england with some sunshine. by coming into the west, some heavier and more persistent rain, some strengthening winds as well as that area of low pressure finally gets down to business. for sunday, even more widespread showers, i think, as the low pressure sits across the uk, and we start to lose that southerly airstream as the low shifts, temperatures edged down once again. a bit dry for monday, but still a little cool on the —— a little on the cool side.
