it's father's day, and the duke of cambridge has released a photograph to mark the occasion. prince william is pictured laughing with his children during a family holiday, with his arms around prince george, who's eight, and seven—year—old princess charlotte, while four—year—old prince louis sits on his shoulders. the photograph was taken in jordan last year. now it's time for a look at the weather with susan powell. hello. the really hot and humid air has now left our shores, but it's still sitting in place across much of europe and heat wave conditions will persist for central europe into the week ahead. we are now in cooler, fresher air that swept in from the north. this is the boundary between the two air masses, a weather front that will continue to give some showers across southern england on into the evening. through the small hours of monday, though, they tend to drift away to the south. winds fall light across scotland and in sheltered central and eastern

spots, temperatures could even dip down as low as just three orfour degrees. a fresher night across the board. first thing monday, a lot of sunshine. the winds in the east will continue to fall light, towards the north west, a weather front will push a little bit more cloud into the north west of scotland. some rain on and off for orkney and shetland, cooler here, temperatures mid teens at best. elsewhere we're looking at the low 20s. and with a lot more fine weather to come through the week ahead, i anticipate particularly across england and wales we could reach the mid to high 20s yet again.

hello this is bbc news with ben brown. the headlines... the transport secretary accuses union leaders of "punishing millions of innocent people" by pressing ahead with rail strikes this week. itjust seems that the union is determined to go out on strike,

the rmt, come what may, and i think it's a very sad situation and i call on them to reconsider. as the conflict in ukraine continues, the new head of the british army tells his troops they should be prepared to "fight in europe once again". at least 59 people have died in floods in bangladesh and india, with nearly 6 million people stranded. it's two hours until voting closes in the final round of parliamentary elections in france, with president emmanuel macron facing an alliance of left—wing parties. now on bbc news, to the falklands, as argentina accuses the uk of colonial ambitions in maintaining its ownership of these small islands off the coast of south america. katy watson reports now from the falklands it was a conflict fought a0 years ago but a cause that argentina still believes worth fighting for.

a war started by a dictator, an unpopular nationalist, fighting against colonialism. it's extraordinary to talk about colonialism when you have a population that has chosen its own future. elsewhere on the islands, argentine... the british won the war but argentina still dreams of change. 0n the 14th ofjune, the argentines surrendered. but it was a conflict that scarred argentina for ever. rejoice at that news and congratulate our forces and the marines.

i'm a british reporter living in south america as the bbc�*s correspondent here. growing up in the uk, we learned about the falklands as a war that was won on the other side of the world. but living here, i've come to learn of a very different version of history — one notjust of war but of nationhood, too. for people here, they're not the falkland islands, they're the malvinas. they're not british, either — they'll always be argentinian. the war in 1982 cost many lives — 255 british soldiers, three islanders and 649 argentinians. it was a conflict that lasted little more than two months, but one that hangs over argentina a0 years later. norma's brother eduardo was one of those who died.

this photo is part of a memorial of the malvinas museum in buenos aires — a space dedicated to the islands, their history and their importance for argentina. the falklands, or the malvinas, are situated right at the bottom of south america. they may be small and remote but they're strategic, having passed through spanish,

french and british hands over the past 500 years or so. the uk says it was the first to claim the islands in 1765, but argentina says that it legally took possession of the islands in the 1820s, inheriting them from the spanish crown. diplomatic talks between the two countries eventually broke down, so it was this man who made the fateful decision to go to war — military dictator general galtieri. galtieri's popularity was waning, so he went to war to unite the argentinians behind a national cause and shift the focus from an economic crisis in the middle of a dictatorship. argentina invaded on april the second, but it didn't expect such a heavy response from the uk. just ten weeks later, argentina surrendered. rejoice at that news and congratulate our forces and the marines.

and with that, the friendship between the uk and argentina was altered for ever. there's no doubt that 1982 was a defining moment for argentina and its relationship with the uk. take this tower, for example, originally called the english tower. it was a gift in 1916 by the british community here in buenos aires to mark 100 years of argentina's independence. but after 1982, its name was scrapped. it became the monumental tower and the plaza that it sits in, the british square — that name was scrapped, too. but most pointedly, perhaps, was the fact they decided to build the monument to the fallen right in front of it. every day, the soldiers are remembered. every day, argentines come and pay their respects at this memorial in buenos aires. this is a war that feels very current. the pain and the anger

haven't gone away. take the world cup of 1986, for example, when maradona scored against england. many saw that as payback for the uk's victory in the war. the hand of god made maradona an argentine god, such was the feeling among people here. most argentinians cite the un as backing their cause — that's because of a recommendation by the un special committee on decolonization. in 1965, the un general assembly adopted resolution 2065, in which it talked about the cherished aim of bringing to an end everywhere colonialism in all its forms, one of which covers the case of the falkland islands, or the malvinas, inviting both governments to proceed with negotiations with a view to finding a peaceful solution to the problem, taking into consideration the people who live on the island. but more than half a century later, the issue's yet to be resolved and the war played a big part in that.

after1982, islanders were given british citizenship. the islands are now more british than ever. in fact, in 2013, there was a referendum in which 99% of people said they wanted to remain british. cheering it was, for the uk, a victory. but speaking to the bbc, argentina's president accused the uk of outdated colonialism. what makes a nation — is it the land or the people?

there must be a lot of trauma at the fact that there's a lot of colonial history in this region and the uk has these islands so close to argentina. how difficult is it having the uk sitting on those islands? the uk is not the colonial power that it used to be. do you think something like brexit will help argentine influence in the falkland islands, in the malvinas?

the accusation of colonialism is one that the british government denies. it's extraordinary to talk about colonialism when you have a population that has chosen its own future in line with the concept

of self—determination, as set out in the un charter. for us, this is not a question of who owns a piece of land, it's how can this people, this amazing, strong community take their own decisions, determine their own future — whether that's about their political future, their economic future, their culturalfuture? i think there's been a lot of discussion in the past few years about colonialism. argentinians see it as a colonial issue. do you — can you see where the argentinians are coming from? it is very obvious how strongly the argentines feel about this issue and i think perhaps in a way that's difficult for those living in the uk to understand, because the legal position is — it's so clear and, you know, our sovereignty of the island is so indisputable. i think sometimes, people don't appreciate how strongly the issue is felt here and particularly after

the conflict, i think it is a source of great pain to the argentine people. but again, i think talking about colonialism is really inappropriate here. colonialism occurs when a country takes over the administration of a territory against the will of its people. that's actually what argentina is proposing to do in this case. beyond the arguments about ownership, there is also a parallel trauma felt by most argentinians. that argentina should never have gone to war in the first place. 0n the streets of buenos aires, that is a view repeated time and time again. we don't have to celebrate it, because war can never be happening. not a0 years ago, not now. because in russia and ukraine we are having the same situation that we have

had here. not for the same reasons, maybe, but as i knew about this war, i believe that argentina was the principal enemy of argentina. that's what i believe. because soldiers went there without any information, without good armour, they were sent there to die. and it is a point of view that norma agrees with, having spent her life picking up the pieces after her brother's death.

this is the last picture the family has of eduardo. for more than 30 years, norma's family didn't know the whereabouts of his body. they visited the islands to search for him. this photo showing norma and her mother next to a simple cross of an unknown soldier. her mother passed away in 2017, three months before his body was found. for norma, it was a form of closure, and his body remains there.

armed forces seized power in argentina in 1976. and during what was known as the dirty war, some 30,000 people were disappeared. it was against this backdrop that argentinians remember the conflict in the malvinas, or the falklands. people don't know what to do with a just cause led by a dictatorship — a very unpopular dictatorship. so, people don't know how to talk about the war without defending the dictatorship and don't know what to do with the dictators, who were the ones who tried to recover the islands, which is a very — very deep feeling for people, even more now that we have the dead

there, and many relatives of the dead. the malvinas is a subject that unites most argentines. in fact, polls show that more than 80% support their country's claim to the islands. but it's a subject that feels much more personal in southern argentina, which is closest to the islands. so, we travelled to tierra del fuego, an archipelago right at the bottom of south america. ushuaia is often referred to as the end of the world, but argentinians also like to say it's also the beginning of everything. it's known as the capital of the malvinas. the islands are hundreds of kilometres from here, but this is still the city that feels closest to them, and there are references to the malvinas everywhere. they lost the war, but argentinians are still fighting to win back the islands once more. daniel guzman is a veteran of the war and now works as a journalist and activist in ushuaia. for him, history is important

in shaping future generations here. daniel lost 12 friends in the war, their names inscribed on these walls. it was a period that marks him to this day. it's hard to forget when there are so many powerful memories allaround him. but it was a war that he says people, including him, went into wanting to fight. every day, he says the islanders would bring the argentine troops milk. it was — for a while,

at least — a transparent and affectionate relationship. but there is no doubt the war changed everything. a couple of hours north

is the city of rio grande, another part of the archipelago that feels that sense of loss. this is a place that still lives and breathes the malvinas. it's the place where the planes took off to head to the islands. there's a big sense of pride and patriotism here. but so, too, is there a sense of longing and frustration that the islands over there are still not recognised as argentina's. horacio�*s house has been turned into a shrine, a memorial of the war a0 years ago. horacio wasn't born in tierra del fuego but after the war, this felt like home. it was as close as he could be to the cause he fought for.

horacio believes that despite the pain of war, the country has come together.

not far away, these teenagers are preparing for the anniversary. it's a big year, and they want to mark it. these students were born many years after the war — the story of what happened has been passed down from their grandparents and parents — but that doesn't mean they don't feel strongly about what happened. and that's something the children here are taught from a young age.

this is a story given to schoolchildren and endorsed by the ministry of education. it tells the story of pepino the penguin, who lived happily on the malvinas with his friends until one day, the monster — ugly monster — a scary monster, comes along in a pirate ship with british flags and chucks pepino off the island. and then, the story goes on trying to explain how pepino rallies his friends, trying to get support to chuck the monster off. but you can see by the end of the book, the monster is still in his cave. ushuaia sits on the beagle channel, named after the ship used by naturalist charles darwin. british influence is all around here — 01’ was. where once there was a thriving trade between the islands and argentina, these waters are now much quieter. as we head out on patrol with argentina's coast guards, the malvinas, or falklands, feel a world away. there's a real sense of loss, politically, commercially

and geographically. the history of the falklands, or malvinas, is rich and varied. it's been shaped by so many — foreign forces, local ties and, of course, war. it questions how you define a nation, through people and land. the debate also challenges who has power in this world, and what effect colonialism had, and for many, still has.

hello. the really hot and humid air has now finally left our shores, but heatwave conditions do still persist across europe and for central europe they are going to carry on at least into the early part of this week. the amber colour marks the really hot and humid air. we are now in cooler, fresher air marked by the yellow colour. the boundary between the two takes the form of this weather front and this front will sit to the south of the uk through the remainder of sunday, keeping the skies rather more overcast here and producing some showers on into the evening. it's quite windy across scotland in the east, there could be the odd shower in the hours ahead, but they should clear overnight and the rain

to the south should also clear. and as the windfalls lighter, temperatures across central and eastern scotland could actually rurally dip to just three orfour degrees. monday dawns bright, fine, with plenty of sunshine. the winds along the east coast should be lighter. we shouldn't really see any showers, i think, to the south, that whole low sinking away down into the bay of biscay. more cloud later in the day for the north west of scotland as a weather front approaches, some rain for 0rkney and shetland, cooler for stornoway thanks to the cloud, but a warmer day for aberdeen, up to 20, and a little warmer across england and wales. now through the week ahead, our story's going to always be about areas of low pressure to the north and south, trying to squeeze this finger of high pressure extending across from the atlantic. but if you just watch the map really until we get to thursday or friday, nothing really firmly makes its way into the uk. so, actually the story for the week ahead is one of largely dry weather and our temperatures will tend to build day on day, particularly across the southern half of the uk, although we're not anticipating them reaching the highs of the weekjust gone. tuesday, more cloud i think

generally across scotland and northern ireland, perhaps drizzly rain out of that as well. england and wales looking fine with some spells of sunshine. and as you see, the temperatures edging up 2a, 25 here. a little cooler across scotland and northern ireland where we have more cloud. and through our week ahead, scotland and northern ireland always slightly more prone to some thicker cloud, but a lot of dry weather. it's friday where we see the showers becoming more widespread. and it's a similar story really for england and wales, perhaps more in the way of sunshine across the southern half of the uk. the temperatures getting into the high 20s in some areas. friday, a greater chance of us seeing some showers spreading up from the south.

this is bbc news. the headlines at five. the transport secretary accuses union leaders of "punishing millions of innocent people" by pressing ahead with rail strikes this week. itjust seems that the union is determined to go out on strike, the rmt, come what may, and i think it's a very sad situation and i call on them to reconsider. we won't settlement to this dispute but we _ we won't settlement to this dispute but we are — we won't settlement to this dispute but we are facing a crisis for our members. — but we are facing a crisis for our members, we are facing thousands of 'ob members, we are facing thousands of job cuts_ members, we are facing thousands of job cuts despite what grant shapps says. _ job cuts despite what grant shapps says, there have been no guarantees these _ says, there have been no guarantees these redundancies will not be compulsory. as the conflict in ukraine continues — the new head of the british army tells his troops they should be prepared to "fight in europe once again". dozens of people have died

and millions of others are stranded after floods in bangladesh and india.
