virginia wade in 1977. patrick gearey reports. from great britain, emma raducanu! emma raducanu's flight home from new york left two weeks ago. since then she has taken off. like most 18—year—olds at grand slams, she never expected to make it through qualifying, let alone play shots like this in the first game of a semi—final. such was her start, opponent maria sakkari complained her skirt was too tight and went off to change it, only to be squeezed further by a nerveless, relentless raducanu. she won the first set 6—1. watching at four in the morning in the uk, this felt like an extraordinary dream. sakkari is the 17th seed, raducanu is ranked 150. numbers at complete odds with the evidence. raducanu broke again. the closer you get, the more tense it is supposed to be,

of two coaches emma credits with her success. all of that coming up. the rest of the — success. all of that coming up. the rest of the news _ success. all of that coming up. iie: rest of the news now. president biden has set out a series of measures aimed at encouraging a higher take—up of the coronavirus vaccine, including making the jabs mandatory for all federal government employees, and asking large companies to ensure their staff are vaccinated or tested weekly. in a speech at the white house, mr biden said patience was "wearing thin" for the millions of americans refusing to get vaccinated. nomia iqbal sent this report from washington. no more soft approach — this time, the president was blunt. good evening, my fellow americans. what more do you need to see? we've made vaccinations free, safe and convenient. the vaccine has fda approval. over 200 million americans have gotten at least one shot. we've been patient, but our patience is wearing thin... ..and your refusal has cost all of us. mr biden�*s frustration comes
6:06 am
down to the numbers. 18 months on since the virus hit, and the us is averaging 1,500 covid—related deaths a day. he laid into some politicians — mainly republican governors — for playing politics by showing unrelenting resistance to mask—wearing. but how to convince a country where many ordinary citizens don't want the vaccine, and where often it's a matter for individual states to decide what to do? well, mr biden has signed an executive order, forcing companies to get their workers jabbed — orface being fired. if you want to work with the federal government, do business with us, get vaccinated! if you want to do business with the federal government, vaccinate your workforce. but the administration has been accused of causing confusion on booster shots and u—turns on mask mandates. critics say it's allowed the delta variant to take foothold. this has taken a toll on the us economy, affecting president biden�*s approval ratings. and it isn't the afghanistan withdrawal, but how
6:07 am
he handles the pandemic... get vaccinated. ..that ultimately matters to the american public. nomia iqbal, bbc news, washington. 600 nhs patients are to be the first in europe to be offered a new type of drug, designed to treat one of the most common forms of lung cancer. the tablet, called sotorasib, is the first of a new generation of medicines targeting a hard to reach mutation which was first discovered 40—years ago. clinical trials for people with limited treatment options showed it prevented tumour growth for an average of seven months, although side effects included nausea and fatigue. 13 british citizens were on board the first international commercial flight out of kabul, since us forces left the country. dozens of international passengers travelled on the qatar airways charterflight, which has landed in doha. a second flight is due later today. giving boosterjabs to everyone is unnecessary,
6:08 am
according the scientist behind the oxford—astrazeneca vaccine, as she calls for doses to be sent to countries in need. professor dame sarah gilbert says some vulnerable groups will need boosters but immunity was "lasting well" in the majority of cases. the uk vaccine advisory body is due to give its final advice on boosters soon. ant and dec were named best presenters for the 20th consecutive time. that was at the national television awards last night. the pair have won the trophy at every ceremony since 2001 and described their achievement as "overwhelming". line of duty, which was nominated forfour line of duty, which was nominated for four awards, received a special recognition award. kate garraway also won an award for her authored documentary finding derek — about her husband derek draper, who spent a year in hospital being treated for coronavirus.

rodic and are reaching the final of the us open. —— emma raducanu. the daily telegraph leads with an interview with the professor who led the creation of the oxford—astrazeneca jab. dame sarah gilbert says it's unnecessary to give a booster to everyone because immunity is lasting well for most people. she's urging the uk to send spare doses to countries with low vaccination rates. rio ferdinand's experience of online abuse leads the daily mirror. the former england footballer has told mps of the pain he felt when he had to explain some of the racist messages to his children. the daily express features an upbeat assessment of the economy from chancellor rishi sunak. he says he's "immensely proud" of the uk's recovery from the pandemic. and there's a lovely picture on the front of the times. this is the annual brambles cricket match which takes place on a sandbank in the solent. the banks only become visible once a year at the lowest tide. players have to travel there by boat, ready for the match to begin at 6:30am.
6:20 am
you've just got to grab the opportunity. that is the moment captured. opportunity. that is the moment catured. ., , ., :: captured. coming up to 20 minute ast six. memorial events will be held across the united states tomorrow, to mark 20 years since the 9/11 terror attack that left nearly 3,000 people dead. our north america correspondent, nada tawfik, takes a look at how the lives of first responders and victims' families were shaped by the day. the rebirth and transformation of lower manhattan has become an emblem of the city's resilience. and though much has changed here, for new yorkers who lived through 9/11, the scars never faded. my mum pointed up and she said, "i need you to look at this because its history." hannah remembers the chaos of being pulled from schooljust blocks from where the twin towers were about to collapse. that experience, just eight years old, inspired her dedication to public service. it kind of like restarted my life.
6:21 am
like, we've always talked about a before and after 9/11. i think after that day i realised how important a, community is, and b, service is. kids now learn about 9/11 as a moment of history. they see these shocking videos, but do not have the lived experience. still, all around them are haunting reminders of the tragedy is not over. when the twin towers collapsed, lower manhattan was blanketed in a toxic cloud. and for months first responders and those who worked, studied and lived here, breathed in that air — air contaminated by glass shards, asbestos and building materials. well, that lead to long—term health problems. and so, 20 years on, the death toll from this tragedy continues to rise. rob's first day as a firefighter was on 9/11. 20 years later, he is still attending the funerals of fellow first responders, three just last week. it took 18 years to get permanent legislation... he's angry that it took the us
6:22 am
government so long to guarantee funding for the ill, and only after a long public campaign and the help of comedianjon stewart. they needed to get wall street open. they needed to make the country feel safe. i get it. but there's a price for that, and we're paying that. the united states government certainly let us down. and it shouldn't have taken people like john stewart, erm... ..to shame them, because that's really the only way this legislation passed, was shame. as rob battles with his health, his sister—in—law kimberly is nursing a different type of pain. her father vincent never came home from work in the twin towers, where he was a vice president at cantor fitzgerald. to have notjust die at work, but to disappear — in the whole physical sense he isjust gone — and i think that it just really took away any hope of closure for us. as new yorkers collectively grieve on this anniversary, the command to never forget takes

on the london air ambulance is becoming increasingly sophisticated — meaning they can save more lives. as part of air ambulance week, they've been showing off some of it — including a mini ultrasound that can help them pinpoint where patients are bleeding and help speed up treatment. the air ambulance teams across the capital currently fly around 1,500 missions a year. a new light exhibition underneath the marble arch mound is the latest offering to try and draw visitors to the attraction. westminster council recently decided to drop ticket charges to make it free. visitors will be able to see the light show after making their way down from the viewing platform. lambeth council is spending £1l00,000 on software "robots" for its revenue and benefits team. it means robot software will be used instead of humans for what they've called "repetitive, low—skilled" digital tasks — including low—risk housing benefit claims, changes of address, and assessing blue badge applications. well, if you're heading out on public transport this morning,

this is how tfl services are looking right now. onto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. well, it's certainly cooler now than it was earlier on through the week, and that cooling trend is expected to continue as we head through the rest of this week. lots of dry weather in the forecast, but also plenty of showers around again today. but it's a mostly dry start to this morning. it's quite grey out there, we've got some mist and some murk around. things will start to brighten up — we'll even see some spells of sunshine — but we've got low pressure sitting over us, it's driving our weather at the moment and we are likely to see some showers spring up here and there — and some of those showers are likely to be heavy and thundery in nature. they'll also be really rather slow—moving because of the light wind, so they could last for some time. so sunny spells, but also some showers around today. top temperatures in the best of that sunshine, 22 or 23 degrees celsius. now, as we head through this evening and overnight, the showers will tend to fade away to leave us with a dry night
6:33 am
to follow — overnight lows of around 1a or 15 degrees celsius into the start of the weekend. the weekend is looking mostly dry, but it'll be really rather cloudy — particularly on saturday. it's also feeling a couple of degrees cooler. we've got high pressure building in — sunday does look dry, the brighter—looking day of the two — there'll be some spells of sunshine at times. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. now, though, it's back to naga and charlie. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. coming up on breakfast this morning... # hey, would you look at me? # it's hard to believe i'm a star after all of this time. songs from the 19805 film 9 to 5 are synonymous with dolly parton —

6:36 am
woman in a grand slam final, as it was 1977 and virginia wade — who was watching in new york as — at the age of 18 — emma radacanu made history. and she's the first qualifier to reach a majorfinal. she could hardly believe it herself, the way she blitzed a very difficult opponent — maria sakkari of greece — with such a dominant display, racing out of the blocks to take the first set 6—1. and radacanu still hasn't dropped a set at flushing meadows, and although she faced a bit more resistance in the second set, the result was never in doubt — taking that 6—4 before falling to her knees. and with commentators running out of ways to describe what they'd seen — greg rusedski saying it was a performance worthy of a world number one. generally the reaction is one of disbelief. we were not the only people up early to follow it. here is how a few of them reacted on twitter. four—time grand slam winning kim

6:39 am
that includes your daily commute every morning. we are here at snow hill station and you can see it is pretty quiet, just a couple of trains and a few commuters this morning. the problem is, as you have highlighted, that has a huge knock—on effect for towns and city centres. if people are not here they are not spending. let's look at the numbers. train commuting currently is just numbers. train commuting currently isjust a third numbers. train commuting currently is just a third of its normal pre—pandemic levels, and that tells you why. the roads are much busier, the trains remain pretty quiet. it is worth remembering that commuters spend money. people coming into town and city centres are collectively spent £30 billion per year, a lot of money. a lot of that is coming from food spending, may lunches out, drinks, dinnerafterwork. food spending, may lunches out, drinks, dinner after work. 12 concert on average a day and —— £12 on average a day and £8 on shopping, something in your lunch hour perhaps. that is the real economic

6:45 am
yesterday in places, some could be torrential and bring localised flash flooding. this is the past few hours. most showers across parts of scotland, also one or two for wales, south—west england, thunderstorms clearing to the north sea for the moment. a relatively quiet start to the day, quite cloudy, misty, murky patches. through the day you can see the blue and green here, at the rash of showers developing almost anywhere across the uk. a real day of hit and miss, perhaps sunglasses one minute, umbrellas the next. if you wish showers for the likes of south—west england and wales, where as many east you will be seen more showers compared to recent days. temperature 23 or 2a, still reasonably warm in the east but turning cooler from the north—west, 19 or 20 degrees. as the fifth test starts at old trafford today we are expecting to see one or two fairly heavy showers at times. the weekend is looking a bit drier and quieter. heading onto the evening hours, those heavy showers tending to fade away for most, but we will see some
6:46 am
fairly persistent rain continuing across northern scotland into saturday morning. that will linger for a good part of the day. elsewhere quite mild start, once again quite humid for some of us on saturday morning. the area of low pressure reading this showers starts to drift away towards the east on saturday. we will still have a lingering weather front bringing that rain across the north of scotland but for the rest of the uk, predominantly dry pitch on saturday. some sunshine breaking through the at times, it would be quite as one compared to the heatwave over the last few days but still temperatures getting up to about 22 degrees or so for the warmest spot in the south—east, typically the high teens further north. cooler where you have the rain across the north of scotland. sunday, the cooler air in the north starts to sink further south, so we have northerly winds developing on sunday. sunday a bit cooler than saturday for many, particularly for scotland and northern ireland. spice is dry, but watch out for this area of rain that could affect the south—west of england and wales. temperature is
6:47 am
not as warm as the past few days. thank you very much, sarah. it was an evening of glitz and glamour at the 02 in london last night for the national television awards. actor david tennant was among the winners for his drama performance in des, line of duty also won two awards — and ant and dec were named as best presenters for the 20th time in a row. tim muffett was on the red carpet. a celebration of television, after a year and a half in which it's played a crucial role in our lives. i think we all came together as families again — which we hadn't done for a long time — sat down on the sofa and watched telly together. it was really nice. me and my kids — i wasjust recommending old shows they'd never never heard of, they were recommending new things, like anime, that we'd never watched. so there was probably just a greater degree of coming together, i think, via tv. the national television awards typically happen injanuary — they've been delayed for eight months because of the pandemic —
6:48 am
so this is one of the first big awards events since lockdown restrictions were eased. it feels like the first office party back for us, you know? it's like everyone in television all back in one room. during lockdown, many of us made new television discoveries. do you remember tiger king? taskmaster — all of it! bridgerton. do you know what i loved? was when the bbc repeated the full series of fawlty towers on a monday night, and it was like a little treat on a monday. these awards are voted for by viewers. huge numbers of them tuned in for the final of line of duty, and it had four nominations. it'sjust nice after ten years of doing this, that there's still an audience, and, as i say, wejust keep going and going again next year. so we'll see — maybe we've got one more in us, who knows? and there was a new category — best authored documentary. nominations included rob borrow: my year with mdn — which explored the former rugby player's battle with motor neurone disease. it was produced by bbc
6:49 am
sport and bbc breakfast. after the year that we've had, the films that have been made are incredible — really amazing. so i think any film that wins tonight is a worthy winner. all of them are fabulous. line of duty! as many predicted, it was indeed a good night for line of duty — named best returning drama, and landing a special recognition award. this means so much. like, um... we started as a wee show on wednesday night on bbc 2 and now we're the biggest drama on tv and it's all because of the fans and we owe everything to you. after life! streaming services such as netflix have boomed during lockdown. after life. ricky gervais' after life was named best comedy, and although covid saw i'm a celebrity... move to wales instead of the australian outback, it landed the bruce forsyth entertainment award. it's, er... it's grim.
6:50 am
i love you so much. the best authored documentary award went to an emotional kate garraway, for finding derek — which showed the ravaging effects of covid on her husband. it's like there's a disease which has targeted the letter h. who's going to get it next? people from hartlepool? set during the height of the aids epidemic, russell t davies' it's a sin — which starred 0lly alexander — was named best new drama. please call me des. and one of david tennant�*s darkest acting performances — as mass murderer dennis nilsen — landed him the best drama performance prize. strictly come dancing was deemed best talent show... ..and, after 19 consecutive wins, could ant and dec make it 20 in a row as best presenters? ant and dec! yes. tv might be undergoing enormous change, but some audience favourites remain the same. tim muffett, bbc news.

bumped into tom cruise. i had to tell him to move on because we had to get on with our day stop they have semi—just, a picnic to eat. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london. a senior met counter terror officer has spoken of his concern following the taliban's takeover of afghanistan. commander richard smith said it was too early to tell exactly what the consequences of the events in afghanistan would mean for the future safety of londoners. it comes on the eve of the twentieth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. as a senior leader in counterterrorism, i am deeply concerned about what the implications for that are going to be in the coming years. and certainly my sense is that the world has become a more dangerous place as a result. the equipment being used by doctors
6:57 am
on the london air ambulance is becoming increasingly sophisticated, meaning they can save more lives. as part of air ambulance week, they've been showing off some of it, including a mini ultrasound that can help them pinpoint where patients are bleeding and help speed up treatment. the air ambulance teams across the capital currently fly around 1,500 missions a year. a new light exhibition underneath the marble arch mound is the latest offering to try and draw visitors to the attraction. westminster council recently decided to drop ticket charges to make it free. visitors will be able to see the light show after making their way down from the viewing platform. lambeth council is spending £a00,000 on software robots for its revenue and benefits team. it means robot software will be used instead of humans for what they've called "repetitive, low—skilled" digital tasks, including low risk housing benefit claims, changes of address, and assessing blue badge applications. well, if you're heading out on public transport this morning, this is how tfl services are looking right now.
6:58 am
there's a good service on most lines this morning, but the central line is part suspended between epping and loughton, and there are minor delays on the metropolitan line. 0nto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. well, it's certainly cooler now than it was earlier on through the week, and that cooling trend is expected to continue as we head through the rest of this week. lots of dry weather in the forecast, but also plenty of showers around again today. but it's a mostly dry start to this morning. it's quite grey out there, we've got some mist and some murk around. things will start to brighten up — we'll even see some spells of sunshine — but we've got low pressure sitting over us, it's driving our weather at the moment and we are likely to see some showers spring up here and there — and some of those showers are likely to be heavy and thundery in nature. they'll also be really rather slow—moving because of the light wind, so they could last for some time. so sunny spells, but also some showers around today. top temperatures in the best of that sunshine, 22 or 23 degrees celsius. now, as we head through this evening and overnight, the showers will tend to fade away
6:59 am
to leave us with a dry night to follow — overnight lows of around 1a or 15 degrees celsius into the start of the weekend. the weekend is looking mostly dry, but it'll be really rather cloudy — particularly on saturday. it's also feeling a couple of degrees cooler. we've got high pressure building in — sunday does look dry, the brighter—looking day of the two — there'll be some spells of sunshine at times. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. bye for now.
7:00 am
good morning, welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. 0ur headlines today. a stunning performance from emma raducanu in new york — the 18—year—old brit reaches the final of the us open. i have just been taking care of each day and before you know it three weeks later i'm in the final and i can't actually believe it. the records keep on tumbling for emma raducanu. she's the first qualifier ever to reach a majorfinal. and it's the furthest a british woman has been in the singles in a grand slam tournament in more than a0 years. there's a warning that city centres and high streets will suffer unless commuters get back on the trains. reflections on 9/11, 20 years on from the attacks.
7:01 am
we'll hear from some of the people who were directly affected. the thing is to never forget. i figure then it will be ok. if i tell my experience, then that's my way of remembering and honouring those that we lost. good morning. many of us start the day on a largely dry and misty note. there will be sun sun developing but some heavy and thundery downpours. all the details coming up. good morning. it's friday, 10th september. britain's emma raducanu makes history as she qualifies for the final of the us open in new york. the 18—year—old beat the 17th seed maria sakkari in the semi—finals at flushing meadows, becoming the first british woman to reach the final of a major tournament since virginia wade in 1977. patrick gearey reports.
7:02 am
from great britain, emma raducanu! emma raducanu's flight home from new york left two weeks ago. since then she has taken off. like most 18—year—olds at grand slams, she never expected to make it through qualifying, let alone play shots like this in the first game of a semi—final. such was her start, opponent maria sakkari complained her skirt was too tight and went off to change it, only to be squeezed further by a nerveless, relentless raducanu. she won the first set 6—1. watching at four in the morning in the uk, this felt like an extraordinary dream. sakkari is the 17th seed, raducanu is ranked 150. numbers at complete odds with the evidence. raducanu broke again. the closer you get, the more tense it is supposed to be, unless you're emma raducanu. she has made the astonishing look routine. the first qualifier to make a grand slam final in the modern era, the first british woman

7:29 am
has spoken of his concern following the taliban's takeover of afghanistan. commander richard smith said it was too early to tell exactly what the consequences of the events in afghanistan would mean for the future safety of londoners. it comes on the eve of the twentieth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. as a senior leader in counterterrorism, i am deeply concerned about what the implications for that are going to be in the coming years. and certainly my sense is that the world has become a more dangerous place as a result. the equipment being used by doctors on the london air ambulance is becoming increasingly sophisticated — meaning they can save more lives. as part of air ambulance week, they've been showing off some of it, including a mini ultrasound that can help them pinpoint where patients are bleeding and help speed up treatment. the air ambulance teams across the capital currently fly around 1,500 missions a year. this is a portable ultrasound machine and it's one of the latest bits of kit that we've added to what we carry.
7:30 am
so essentially it's a mini tablet device and then we've got three different ultrasound probes enabling us to scan, essentially, different body regions, or for different particular procedures. a new light exhibition underneath the marble arch mound is the latest offering to try and draw visitors to the attraction. westminster council recently decided to drop ticket charges to make it free. visitors will be able to see the light show after making their way down from the viewing platform. well, if you're heading out on public transport this morning, this is how tfl services are looking right now. 0nto the weather now with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. well, it's certainly cooler now than it was earlier on through the week, and that cooling trend is expected to continue as we head through the rest of this week. lots of dry weather in the forecast, but also plenty of showers around again today. but it's a mostly dry start to this morning.
7:31 am
it's quite grey out there, we've got some mist and some murk around. things will start to brighten up — we'll even see some spells of sunshine — but we've got low pressure sitting over us, it's driving our weather at the moment and we are likely to see some showers spring up here and there — and some of those showers are likely to be heavy and thundery in nature. they'll also be really rather slow—moving because of the light wind, so they could last for some time. so sunny spells, but also some showers around today. top temperatures in the best of that sunshine, 22 or 23 degrees celsius. now, as we head through this evening and overnight, the showers will tend to fade away to leave us with a dry night to follow — overnight lows of around 14 or 15 degrees celsius into the start of the weekend. the weekend is looking mostly dry, but it'll be really rather cloudy — particularly on saturday. it's also feeling a couple of degrees cooler. we've got high pressure building in — sunday does look dry, the brighter—looking day of the two — there'll be some spells of sunshine at times. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. now though it's back

and put into context because not only does we haven't seen this in the tennis world but even the sporting world, that is the gravity we are looking at. obviously immensely proud from my point of view and at the lta without going through the pathway and all the coaches and support staff, her parents, they have been involved throughout. it obviously is fantastic to see her at this point and enjoying the moment, as well. she itjoy, because without the pressure and the fear, which she seems to deflect onto her opponents. completely. it is a breath of fresh air seeing her smile through the whole tournament. even though with the high pressure, i have seen it in the high pressure, i have seen it in the last few years that she thrives on the pressure. i have not seen her smile too often in the heat of the battle, but we have seen this the last few years in the matches, she steps up, she almost has tunnel vision where you see her sticking to a game style, in the really tight

moment people would almost fall away. that makes her a bit special, i think, on the tennis side. take away. that makes her a bit special, i think, on the tennis side.- i think, on the tennis side. take us back. i think, on the tennis side. take us back- when — i think, on the tennis side. take us back. when did _ i think, on the tennis side. take us back. when did you _ i think, on the tennis side. take us back. when did you first _ i think, on the tennis side. take us back. when did you first started i back. when did you first started working with emma, and what would you like then? did you always think she was a special talent, incredible? i she was a special talent, incredible?— she was a special talent, incredible? , ., , incredible? i saw her three years aro incredible? i saw her three years auo at incredible? i saw her three years ago at the _ incredible? i saw her three years ago at the juniors _ incredible? i saw her three years ago at the juniors at _ incredible? i saw her three yearsj ago at the juniors at wimbledon, incredible? i saw her three years - ago at the juniors at wimbledon, she made the quarterfinals and a lot of the traits we see now you could see back then. ironically she played leylah, who she is playing in the final. she stuck to her guns and really took it to the opponent and took really good player to beat her on the day. we see those things now and it is an easierjob for me than some coming into it for two years because she learns so quickly. she has been around the sport all her life and her mum and dad threw her into some random sports as a

7:39 am
programme was set up to help aspiring young players in terms of financial support to help them get set up with coaches and access the national tennis center and world—class facilities so it is great to see someone come through that pathway and she has been on the radar for years, that pathway and she has been on the radarforyears, been that pathway and she has been on the radarfor years, been involved with trips and camps, really young age. it is a real buzz around the national tennis center, where these people are working there as her grow up people are working there as her grow up to now see her on the big stage so soon, it is quite inspiring for a lot of players and british tennis as a whole that we have seen this girl really sort of get through the exploits and get through these big matches and now british number one. it is kind of showing that it can be done and it will really inspire the young players but also the players who might be ranked a little bit less and they can actually break through. less and they can actually break throuuh. ~ , through. absolutely. en'oyed tomorrowfi through. absolutely. en'oyed tomorrow night, i through. absolutely. enjoyed tomorrow night, whether- through. absolutely. enjoyedj tomorrow night, whether you through. absolutely. enjoyed - tomorrow night, whether you are watching on your own over the crowd or with family. i'm sure people up

7:50 am
we see them in railway stations, in some gymnasiums. these should be available everywhere. the survival rate in the uk, for and out—of—hospital cardiac arrest, it is only 10%. compare that with cities like seattle where it is over 50%. the simple reason is they have more defibrillators and more people trained how to use them. good more defibrillators and more people trained how to use them.— trained how to use them. good to talk to you- _ trained how to use them. good to talk to you. thank _ trained how to use them. good to talk to you. thank you _ trained how to use them. good to talk to you. thank you so - trained how to use them. good to talk to you. thank you so much, i trained how to use them. good to. talk to you. thank you so much, dr iqbal, premier league doctor whose son was likely saved by a defibrillator and is getting ready for school. take care. let's ta ke let's take a look at the weather with sarah. let's take a look at the weather with sarah-— let's take a look at the weather with sarah. ,., ., ., a, , ., , with sarah. good morning. many of us startin: the with sarah. good morning. many of us starting the day _ with sarah. good morning. many of us starting the day on _ with sarah. good morning. many of us starting the day on the _ with sarah. good morning. many of us starting the day on the dry, _ with sarah. good morning. many of us starting the day on the dry, quiet - starting the day on the dry, quiet note. this is the picture in kent. some blue sky around, also some strata of cumulus cloud. we will see this building into it get thicker cumulus cloud, which will bring a shower of potential of the distance.

a real mix of weather. it bit of sunshine breaking through the cloud. if you missed it, make patches around this money, especially across parts of northern england, which are gradually clear. by this afternoon some sunny spells, particularly in the east, but a rash of heavy showers anywhere from london up towards lerwick. you could catch some of those. a bit dry of the price of south—west england and wales, turning cloudier and most a few degrees cooler than yesterday but still temperatures around 23 degrees in those sunny spells towards the east. through this evening and overnight most of those heavy showers will ease, but we see more persistent rain lingering across the north of scotland as we head on into saturday morning. further south, a dry start to saturday and still quite mild and humid overnight tonight. low pressure drifts away towards the east through the weekend we will start to see the breeze coming in from and what an idyllic direction so not quite as warm as it has been recently. that may well linger through saturday across the north of scotland. sunny spells further south

8:01 am
the records keep on tumbling for emma raducanu. she's the first qualifier ever to reach a majorfinal. and it's the furthest a british woman has been in a grand slam tournament in more than 40 years. good morning. quieter stations but busy roads. just a third of rail passengers are back on the trains and it is costing the economy £30 billion a year. what is being done about it? i will have the details. good morning. temperatures cooling down in the next couple of days. today, sunny spells but scattered, heavy showers and thunderstorms. details in ten minutes. # tragedy # when you're feeling down and you can't go on # it's tragedy. ..# and they've already sold more than 20 million records — steps are back with a new album and an arena tour. and they'll be on the sofa with us later this morning.

good morning. it's friday, 10th september. britain's emma raducanu makes history as she qualifies for the final of the us open in new york. the pictures you can see behind us tell a real story. in the early hours here in the uk she beat 17th seed maria sakkari in the semifinals at flushing meadows, at the age of just 18, becoming the first british woman to reach the final of a major tournament since virginia wade in 19 77. patrick gearey reports. from great britain, emma raducanu! emma raducanu's flight home from new york left two weeks ago. since then she has taken off. like most 18—year—olds at grand slams, she never expected to make it through qualifying, let alone play shots like this in the first game of a semi—final. such was her start, opponent maria sakkari complained her skirt was too tight and went off to change it, only to be squeezed further by a nerveless,
8:03 am
relentless raducanu. she won the first set 6—1. watching at four in the morning in the uk, this felt like an extraordinary dream. sakkari is the 17th seed, raducanu is ranked 150. numbers at complete odds with the evidence. raducanu broke again. the closer you get, the more tense it is supposed to be, unless you're emma raducanu. she has made the astonishing look routine. the first qualifier to make a grand slam final in the modern era, the first british woman to reach one in 44 years. in the city that famously never sleeps, the teenager i'v e i've just been taking care of each day. and before you know it, three weeks later, i'm in the final and i can't actually believe it. thanks to everyone. and still she climbs. in the city that famously never sleeps, the teenager who never wants to wake up. patrick gearey, bbc news.

8:21 am
and ant and dec were named as best presenters for the 20th time in a row. tim muffett was on the red carpet. a celebration of television, after a year and a half in which it's played a crucial role in our lives. i think we all came together as families again — which we hadn't done for a long time — sat down on the sofa and watched telly together. it was really nice. me and my kids — i wasjust recommending old shows they'd never never heard of, they were recommending new things, like anime, that we'd never watched. so there was probably just a greater degree of coming together, i think, via tv. the national television awards typically happen injanuary — they've been delayed for eight months because of the pandemic — so this is one of the first big awards events since lockdown restrictions were eased. it feels like the first office party back for us, you know? it's like everyone in television all back in one room. during lockdown, many of us made new television discoveries. do you remember tiger king? taskmaster — all of it! bridgerton.

do you know what i loved? was when the bbc repeated the full series of fawlty towers on a monday night, and it was like a little treat on a monday. these awards are voted for by viewers. huge numbers of them tuned in for the final of line of duty, and it had four nominations. it'sjust nice after ten years of doing this, that there's still an audience, and, as i say, wejust keep going and going again next year. so we'll see — maybe we've got one more in us, who knows? and there was a new category — best authored documentary. nominations included rob borrow: my year with mdn — which explored the former rugby player's battle with motor neurone disease. it was produced by bbc sport and bbc breakfast. after the year that we've had, the films that have been made are incredible — really amazing. so i think any film that wins tonight is a worthy winner. all of them are fabulous. line of duty! as many predicted, it was indeed a good night for line of duty —

8:29 am
anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. as a senior leader in counterterrorism, i am deeply concerned about what the implications for that are going to be in the coming years. and certainly my sense is that the world has become a more dangerous place as a result. police are trying to find the person responsible for shooting a young man who was left with life changing injuries. early on the 24th of august a man on this moped — on the top left — drove into cairnfield avenue, turning off his lights and then shooting at two men who were standing talking. both tried to take cover but a 21—year—old was hit in his back, hand and hip. police are appealing to anyone who might have information about the attack. the equipment being used by doctors on the london air ambulance is becoming increasingly sophisticated — meaning they can save more lives. as part of air ambulance week, they've been showing off some of it, including a mini ultrasound that can help them pinpoint where patients are bleeding and help speed up treatment.
8:30 am
the air ambulance teams across the capital currently fly around 1,500 missions a year. well, if you're heading out on public transport this morning, this is how tfl services are looking right now. there's a good service on the tubes this morning — just minor delays on the metropolitan line. also tfl rail — no service between hayes & harlington and heathrow terminals 123 due to a fire alert. onto the weather now, with elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. well, it's certainly cooler now than it was earlier on through the week, and that cooling trend is expected to continue as we head through the rest of this week. lots of dry weather in the forecast, but also plenty of showers around again today. but it's a mostly dry start to this morning. it's quite grey out there, we've got some mist and some murk around. things will start to brighten up — we'll even see some spells of sunshine — but we've got low pressure sitting over us, it's driving our weather at the moment and we are likely
8:31 am
to see some showers spring up here and there — and some of those showers are likely to be heavy and thundery in nature. they'll also be really rather slow—moving because of the light wind, so they could last for some time. so sunny spells, but also some showers around today. top temperatures in the best of that sunshine, 22 or 23 degrees celsius. now, as we head through this evening and overnight, the showers will tend to fade away to leave us with a dry night to follow — overnight lows of around 14 or 15 degrees celsius into the start of the weekend. the weekend is looking mostly dry, but it'll be really rather cloudy — particularly on saturday. it's also feeling a couple of degrees cooler. we've got high pressure building in — sunday does look dry, the brighter—looking day of the two — there'll be some spells of sunshine at times. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. plenty more on our website at the usual address. now, though, it's back to naga and charlie. bye for now.

8:49 am
of being pulled from schooljust blocks from where the twin towers were about to collapse. that experience, just eight years old, inspired her that experience, atjust eight years old, inspired her dedication to public service. it kind of like restarted my life. like, we've always talked about a before and after 9/11. i think after that day i realised how important, a, community is, and, b, service is. kids now learn about 9/11 as a moment of history. they see these shocking videos, but do not have the lived experience. still, all around them are haunting reminders that the tragedy is not over. when the twin towers collapsed, lower manhattan was blanketed in a toxic cloud. and for months first responders and those who worked, studied and lived here, breathed in that air — air contaminated by glass shards, asbestos and building materials. well, that lead to long—term health problems. and so, 20 years on, the death toll from this tragedy continues to rise. rob serra's first day as a firefighter was on 9/11.
8:50 am
20 years later, he is still attending the funerals of fellow first responders — three just last week. it took 18 years to get permanent legislation... he's angry that it took the us government so long to guarantee funding for the ill, and only after a long public campaign and the help of comedianjon stewart. they needed to get wall street open. they needed to make the country feel safe. i get it. but there's a price for that, and we're paying that. the united states government certainly let us down. and it shouldn't have taken people likejon stewart, erm... ..to shame them, because that's really the only way this legislation passed — was shame. as rob battles with his health, his sister—in—law kimberly is nursing a different type of pain. her father vincent never came home from work in the twin towers, where he was a vice president at cantor fitzgerald. to have him notjust die at work, but to disappear — in the whole physical sense
