marking the sites with lights, candles, lights from their felons to try and write up the area and remained many of these bases can be quite dark on an autumn evening. of course the impact of this vigil is increased by what happened back in the summer when the vigil for sarah everard had to be broken up by police as it breached embarrassment —— regulations. people cannot freely gather and they praise local police in the bar for their support they've offered in organising and supporting the organisers to ensure this vigil can take place peacefully. the police know how important events like this are, notjust in raising concerns and issues about safety for everybody living in the area but also as a catalyst for people to come forward who might have their memoryjobs by being reminded and asked to think what were you doing in the area exactly this time a week ago when sabina was murdered. her body was not found until the next

back an ageing workforce and asian demographic take not being replaced ljy demographic take not being replaced by young people and the reason recovery of search and demand is a general trend to home delivery and much more pressure on the sector. and during locked we lost 30,000 which is about 16, 17,000 drivers. and i understand from some of the interviews you have heard earlier in the day on the bbc news channel that the day on the bbc news channel that the majority of people in the numbers who actually passed the test the first time, it's not that great in the present age and a lot of those tests will be for people who do not pass the first time i have to go back into the system? that do not pass the first time i have to go back into the system?— go back into the system? that is riuht. go back into the system? that is riht. at go back into the system? that is right. at about _ go back into the system? that is right. at about 5696. _ go back into the system? that is right. at about 5696. and - go back into the system? that is i right. at about 5696. and currently right. at about 56%. and currently this is an excel. you need a retest. there is a lot in the system which they are working hard to rectify but it's hoarding up new drivers coming into the economy.— it's hoarding up new drivers coming into the economy. what would you do if ou had into the economy. what would you do if you had the — into the economy. what would you do if you had the magic— into the economy. what would you do

8:12 pm
those last two or three weeks i'm getting the food into the storeroom and you have to have it in your supply chain to start with and that build—up is going to start in the next week or so. on the next week or so. unless he get drivers that are going to see significant disruption because we are already struggling now and imagine what it will be right in christmas when we are all out in supermarket buying more than we normally would. it's been a really tough year and a tough few weeks with carbon dioxide issue coming onto the back of the covid—19 problems we've had in terms of keeping the supply chain going but it's absolutely fundamental that we get these visas quickly. otherwise customers are going to be disappointed at christmas with just running to keep up at the moment with the supply chain, start adding 25, 30% extra volumes in the run—up to christmas and you can see why we have quite a problem. we to christmas and you can see why we have quite a problem.— have quite a problem. we will find out how this _ have quite a problem. we will find out how this shortage _ have quite a problem. we will find out how this shortage and - have quite a problem. we will find out how this shortage and other i out how this shortage and other studies are covered in tomorrow's front pages. that is i look at the
8:13 pm
paper is for saturday morning. our guestsjoining me tonight are the political commentator, and former labour parliamentary candidate, faiza shaheen, and rob merrick, who's the deputy political editor at the independent. three schoolchildren have been sentenced to a total of 28 years in detention or prison for killing 13—year—old olly stephens in berkshire injanuary after a row over social media. a girl lured him to the field in reading where two boys stabbed him to death. his parents have paid an emotional tribute to him and spoken of their devastation. our correspondent helena wilkinson has more. olly was, his parents say, generous, caring and always a stand up for the defenceless. here he is leaving home on the day he was killed. he'd just told his mum he loved her. and then i went to the door and it was a boy that i knew... ..0lly wouldn't have anything to do with normally. and he said "olly�*s been stabbed."
8:14 pm
and ijust remember running back towards the stairs, because stuart was upstairs and shouting "olly�*s been stabbed," and his sister was up there as well, and they both came screaming down the stairs, and you ran out without your shoes on over to the field, and ijust, i remember when i got there, stuart just fell to his knees, and he just was screaming "my boy, my boy, no." and he screamed that, and i looked over and olly wasjust com pletely lifeless. an off duty nurse found olly. she tried to resuscitate him but he died at the scene. today olly�*s parents came to the court to see the three 14—year—olds who killed their son sentenced for their crimes. to have shared the short amount of time we had with him was a gift in itself. we relaxed for a few moments, preoccupied with getting on with life, and took our eyes off him forjust a moment. it cost us and him dearly. ourjourney, our life sentence has just begun. life without our beautiful boy.
8:15 pm
olly was lured to the park by the girl as part of a set up. the two boys were already there, waiting to attack. videos and photos found on the boys' mobiles were shown to the jury. this is the younger boy, showing off his knives in his bedroom. he was 13 when he stabbed olly. the older boy was 14, and had posed with a knife for photos himself. in her sentencing remarks, judge heather norton addressed the three 14—year—olds. she said what they had done that day was utterly cruel. she said to them they had taken one life, damaged their own futures and caused so much pain to so many people. when olly left home the day he was killed, his parents said he had a spring in his step, and laughter in his heart. that, they say, is how they will remember him. helena wilkinson, bbc news, reading crown court. more than 350,000 people have booked a coronavirus boosterjab since the programme was launched in england last week.
8:16 pm
from today the top—up vaccinations — available to the over—50s, as well as to those most vulnerable to the virus — can be booked throughout the uk. our health editor hugh pym reports. reunited — 91—year—old maggie keenan and matron may parsons. morning. oh maggie. good morning. we're allowed to hug, right. so nice to see you. in december, may gave maggie her pfizerjab, the first in the world. today they were back at university hospital coventry for their booster jabs. ready? since that first dose, maggie says she has had attention from around the world. i'm big news! what is it like being big news? 0h... i did a lot of writing. i have met some lovely people by writing to them, you know. i write loads of letters now.
8:17 pm
it is lovely to see people and sometimes we disregard the fact we don't see people who are very human, we like the company of others, and to see maggie doing so well is really heart—warming for me to see her over the time. but with more than five million in the uk who have not had any dose, the head of nhs england is stepping up the drive to persuade more people to get vaccinated. i think the message will be follow the science, so if we have young people, or indeed people of any age who are uncertain about whether it is right for them, then follow the science, it is still the best thing you can do to protect yourself, to protect others. having moved quickly ahead of most other nations, the uk has fallen back a bit against some of the leading economies, in terms of share of the population who have been fully vaccinated. it is worth noting that some other countries started offering jabs to children before the uk did. but the uk is ahead of countries
8:18 pm
like the us, japan, and germany. experts say the vaccination programme has been successful but there are still challenges. if you have not had your vaccine come forward, and we need to try and maintain the enthusiasm that we saw earlier in the programme for the boosters, for those that are eligible. all of these things are difficult. there is fatigue in the population and we need to keep people's minds focussed on the importance of the measures. the full roll out of covid vaccines to 12—15—year—olds has started in england and scotland. wales and northern ireland are set to follow. in england, the latest weekly survey suggests the only age group to see case rates rise was the under 16s. hugh pym, bbc news. the government's latest coronavirus figures for the uk, show there were 35,623 new infections recorded in the latest 24—hour period.
8:19 pm
that means in the past week, there was an average of 33,459 new cases per day. there were 7,124 people in hospital with covid, according to the latest data. another 180 deaths have been recorded, that's of people who died within 28 days of a positive covid test, taking the average number per day in the last week, to 143 on vaccinations, 89.6 per cent people aged 16 or over have had theirfirstjab, while 82.1 per cent, are now double vaccinated. the headlines on bbc news. police issue cctv footage of a man wanted over the killing of sabina nessa in south east london, as they release a 38—year—old man under investigation —who was arrested yesterday. the uk government urges motorists not to panic buy fuel, as queues form at some service stations amid fears of shortages due to a lack of delivery drivers

8:22 pm
your message to these young players who want to be the next emma raducanu? keep going, keep believing and have that inner belief, because even when all the odds are against you, you can still do wonderful things. the last time emma raducanu trained here she was just one of a number of up coming british tennis prospects. since then, of course, she has been catapulted to sporting stardom, but all the signs are she is enjoying every moment. i still feel like i'm the same person as i was three weeks' ago, i am just adjusting to it right now, but i'm having a lot of fun. raducanu's yet to decide which event she will play next, but did reveal she would split from the coach who guided her to us open glory, wanting a more experienced mentor. i definitely want to keep just improving, and being the best version of myself on the court and off the court, and maximising my potential, and i still think i have a lot of room for development, in terms of my tennis career and where it can go, so, yeah, excited to start working on it.
8:23 pm
i always wanted to be a ball girl. but raducanu's ambitions are set far higher now. her sights set on much more success, both on and off the court. dan roan, bbc news. they —— virginia dupree is ceiling paint engine for damages alleging she was sexually abused by him when she was sexually abused by him when she was sexually abused by him when she was under control ofjeffrey she was under control of jeffrey epstein. she was under control ofjeffrey epstein. he killed himself in prison a new york two years ago. the duke of york has until october the 29th theissue of york has until october the 29th the issue with remote response to the issue with remote response to the lawsuit. this sunday will mark the end of a political era in germany, when elections take place for a new leader to replace angela merkel as chancellor after 16 years. a whole generation of young germans have known no other leader, and one of the big issues of the election campaign has
