and will smith apologises to chris rock over his infamous 0chsner slap. i'm reeta chakrabarti live from edgbaston, where the t20 women's cricket has made instead of you in the commonwealth games —— made its debut. welcome to bbc news. it's good to have your company. we begin this hourin have your company. we begin this hour in ukraine, and we are getting more details about the rocket

attacks thought to have killed a0 ukrainian prisoners of war. it happened in the east of ukraine. the bbc�*s diplomatic correspondent is in kyiv and he gave us this update. is in kyiv and he gave us this u date. , is in kyiv and he gave us this udate. , , ., ., ., is in kyiv and he gave us this udate. , ,., ., ., , update. this is a war of competing narratives over _ update. this is a war of competing narratives over a _ update. this is a war of competing narratives over a particularly - narratives over a particularly gruesome episode. what i've seen and i do not recommend that people watch this is a horrible scene of a warehouse which was obviously housing a significant number of prisoners of war. there are mangled metal bunk beds and in among them, many charred bodies. there also

bodies lying outside on the ground. none of the circumstances surrounding this are clear. the russians say this was the result of a ukrainian missile strike using sophisticated western equipment. you ukrainian adamantly. designed to liquidate a number of prisoners. the prisoners we believe were mostly from the mariupol area captured at the end of that prolonged siege and may well have included many members of the legendary as all battalion who have been the subject of hostility —— azov. so this competing narrative is unlikely to be resolved, this is not a part where we can go and independently

verified. the bbc has been banned from that part of rebel controlled territory for a number of years. in the last few minutes, the ukrainians have released what they say is an interception of a conversation that shed light on what happens. we're still listening to find out what that really shows, but at the moment, this is definitely two very contrasting narratives. here in the uk, more than a,000 people affected by the infected blood scandal should receive an immediate compensation payment of at least £100,000 each. that's the recommendation of the judge leading the public inquiry into what's been called the worst treatment disaster in the history of the nhs. the government says it will consider the recommendation with the �*utmost urgency�*. 0ur health correspondent jim reed has this report. in 1978, richard warrick was given a new treatment for the blood disorder haemophilia. he later found out it was contaminated with two forms

of hepatitis and hiv. the impact on his life was devastating. no life insurance, no pension. everything that the normal guy on the street that would be the norm, that'sjust gone. we were advised, well, we were told in no uncertain terms to have our one and only child aborted, so we lost a child because of the risk to the child of hiv. but richard and other victims of this disaster have often had to survive on benefits and annual support payments unlike in other countries, full compensation has never been paid. it's recognition of the harm that's been done to us. compensation to families and victims will enable them to get on with their lives and... yeah. you've been waiting a long time for this. been waiting a long time for this. too long. today, then, an important moment. the chair of the public inquiry made his first formal recommendation, that some interim compensation

should be paid now with more possible later. i've decided to recommend interim payments of no less than £100,000 are made to all the infected people and all the bereaved partners currently registered with the schemes. in a room in the inquiry building, messages are left in bottles remembering loved ones. since the start of the inquiry in 2019 one infected person has been dying every four days. since the start of the inquiry in 2019, one infected person has been dying every four days. in total, 2500 have lost their lives. steve always felt the treatment destroyed his life. _ sue remembers her husband steve, as she visits his grave in devon. he was infected with hepatitis c after being given contaminated treatment, and died in 2018. i had my earning power taken away from me. . my husband had his earning power taken away. - we lost our home, we lost everything we had. - why shouldn't i financially — i because that is the only thing the government can now give me —

have some part of what i lost? - the government has said it would consider the recommendations with utmost urgency though it is unclear where the money, possibly £a00 million would come from. if it agrees, thousands of victims could receive the first ever compensation payments before the end of the year. jim reed, bbc news. rebekah vardy has lost her libel case at the high court. in what had become known as the wagatha christie trial, the wife of the former england footballerjamie vardy had sued coleen rooney after she accused vardy of leaking private information about her to the tabloid press. in a statement after the verdict, coleen rooney said she was pleased with the judgement, but added that the case should rebekah vardy said she was �*extremely sad and disappointed�*, and that it wasn�*t the result

she�*d been expecting. 0ur correspondent colin paterson has followed the trial and sent this report. two footballer wives, both with huge social media followings and brands in their own right. rebekah vardy, married to leicester city striker, jamie vardy, and coleen rooney, wife of england�*s all—time top goal—scorer, wayne rooney. they went head—to—head in a libel trial at the high court. today�*s judgment could not have gone much worse for rebekah vardy, her evidence described by the judge as "not credible, and on occasions, manifestly inconsistent, evasive or implausible." it�*s a disaster for rebekah vardy. you know, her brand, her career in the sense of, you know, being a personality, has been completely ruined because she�*s effectively been found to be a liar by a high courtjudge, which is going to be hanging around her neck for the rest of her life. the case all centred on an accusation made by coleen rooney in october 2019. she�*d been doing some detective work to investigate who was leaking information from her private instagram account to the sun newspaper.

coleen rooney created fake stories to try and deduce who was behind the leaks. she blocked every account apart from one. days later, the stories appeared in the sun. only then, and after the use of ten dots to ramp up the tension, did coleen rooney reveal in an online post that the one account she�*d allowed to read these works of fiction was rebekah vardy�*s. rebekah vardy said that this accusation had caused untold damage to her reputation and she was left with no option but to sue coleen rooney for libel. but in court, things began to go wrong for mrs vardy. coleen rooney�*s legal team accused her of being evasive and of changing her story. today, the judge said that rebekah vardy had actively engaged time and time again in the process of selling stories about coleen rooney to the sun via her agent, caroline watt — seen here on the left. the judge said it was likely both of them had destroyed crucial evidence, including caroline watt�*s phone being dropped into the north sea. when rebekah vardy was giving her evidence at the high court, i was sitting about five feet away

and saw as she repeatedly broke down, and when she was accused of lying under oath, she put her head in her hands and sobbed. she looked like she was thinking, "why have i brought this to the high court?" with today�*s judgment, she will be seriously regretting doing so. in thejudgment, coleen rooney and her husband, wayne rooney, were described as having given honest and reliable evidence and crucially her original post with the accusation was ruled to have been substantially true. in a statement, coleen rooney said... coleen rooney has struck a majorvictory, major, major home run here. and it makes her look, in a sense, a certain amount of statesperson over this. she understands the game. vardy doesn't. she is a pantomime baddie, and we look at all these big

celebrity moments as a great british pantomime. this afternoon, rebekah vardy said that she was disappointed and devastated by the judge is finding. devastated by the judge�*s finding. she also asked to an end for what she called the vile abuse against her family. abuse the judge today also recognised. rebekah vardy hoped this case would restore her reputation, that reputation has now fallen further. colin paterson, bbc news. let�*s speak to lauren beeching, who took part in the bbc wagatha podcast, and is a social media and reputation management adviser at her company honest london. thank you very much for being with us. ., thank you very much for being with us. ., , . . ., thank you very much for being with us. from rebecca farney's point of view, the judgment _ us. from rebecca farney's point of view, the judgment on _ us. from rebecca farney's point of view, the judgment on that - us. from rebecca farney's point of. view, the judgment on that question is pretty clear —— rebekah vardy.

yesterday evening at around 6:20pm. 0fficers said a nine—year—old girl died of what they believe to be a stab wound. we do believe this to be an isolated incident. her parents are being supported by specially trained officers at this very difficult time and i can only imagine the grief and pain that they�*re going through. the girl�*s name has been confirmed as lilia valutyte. two people have an arrested but police have not given any details of who they are or what they have been arrested on suspicion of, citing operational reasons. extra officers have been brought in to patrol the area but the incident has made some people in this town question their own safety. you can�*t live in boston, you can�*t. it�*s not safe. no more. you don�*t feel safe here? no, i don�*t. sick to my stomach. a poor innocent nine—year—old. how could anybody do that to a nine—year—old? disgusting. we don't walk around here at night—time. l you don�*t feel safe? no. - no way. no way would i feel safe. lilia died in the shadow

of boston�*s historic church. inside, people have been lighting candles in her memory. every life is precious, every human life. when it�*s a child, there�*s something very deep in that that affects us, when we lose children. the police are urging anyone with information to come forward, but they are also urging people not to speculate about this incident on social media. meanwhile, the people in this town are asking the same question again and again. how could this have happened? navteonhal, bbc news, boston. a judge has decided for the first time that the london council which owned grenfell tower is liable for the deaths of five residents and the effects of the fire on a further four. the royal borough of kensington and chelsea admitted that it failed to ensure the building was not defective. earlier, i spoke to our home affairs correspondent, tom symonds, who told us more.

you have three things happening with regard to getting to the bottom of what caused the grenfell tower fire and the deaths of 72 people injune 2017. the inquiry is still ongoing. police investigations are still ongoing. in this major raft of civil claims, so people suing the council and various companies involved for the deaths of their loved ones and also for the effects of fire has had on them. for the first time, the judge has decided yesterday in the high court that the london borough of kensington was liable for the deaths of five of the people who lived in the power and for four other people who either lived in the tower or nearby. that follows the council making its own admissions about its own liability. it set effectively it did have what�*s known in the legaljargon a duty of care towards the residence under two acts

and that it had reached the duty of care. it has an accepted much more than that. it is not accepting other cases, other claims from some 85 other people. but it has made this admission and it has said it has done so because it felt it was the right thing to do hopes it would allow the people who have been affected to be able to move on with the legal actions that they now face. will smith has apologised to chris rock over his infamous 0scars slap in his first public statement in three months. in a video posted online, he spoke directly to the camera and answered a series of questions about the incident on march 27. i spent the last three months replaying and understanding the nuances and the complexities of what happened in that moment.

and i�*m not going to try to unpack all of that right now, but i can see to all of you there is no part of me that thinks that was the right way to behave in that moment. there is no part of me that thinks that is the optimal way to handle the feeling of disrespect or insults. will smith. it offers a new multiyear contract deal. separate strike this week and was called off.

misty and murky with some hill and coastalfog. clear misty and murky with some hill and coastal fog. clear spells further south, 12—16 degrees the overnight lows. this frontal system continues to trudge its way slowly southwards in eastwards with that extensive cloud, mist and fog and outbreaks of rain. rain pushing southward through the morning across scotland and northern ireland, tending to clear out into northern england. it will be raining all the time. some of it could drift into the north midlands and maybe even parts of east anglia as we go through the afternoon. very little if any rain coming down into because other counties where it will because other counties where it will be warm. 26 or 27. 22 in aberdeen. 0r saturday night, we see a feat of cloud continuing to roll in from the west. still some misty and murky conditions around the coast and over the hills. further outbreaks drifting in as well. sunday, a bit of uncertainty about how far north

or south this lump of wet weather will be. but it does look quite likely that southern counties will see very much rain and it will brighten up later across scotland and northern ireland. still pretty warm and humid down towards the south. 26 likely to be the temperature at wembley. could be the onslaught of rain from this cloud, and there is some rain up towards the north and the west, not much of it down to the south. it should turn a little cooler later.

hello, this is bbc news. the headlines: a0 ukrainian prisoners of war are said to have been killed any missile attack in donetsk. russia and ukraine have blamed each other. the infected blood scandal of the 70s and 80s, a judge has ruled victim

should receive an immediate 6—figure compensation. rebecca vardy loses compensation. rebecca va rdy loses her libel case compensation. rebecca vardy loses her libel case against wayne rooney will stop the judge said a significant part of the evidence was not critical. two people are arrested over the suspected stabbing of a nine—year—old girl. will smith apologises to chris rock over his infamous 0scars slab. his first public statement on the incident after three months. with the prices of gas and electricity climbing ever higher, the government has announced the details of its plan to help support people through the cost of living crisis. all households in england, scotland and wales will receive £a00 off their energy bills, paid in six instalments from october. for those paying by direct debit, £66 will be automatically taken off monthly payments in october and november, with £67 deducted monthly for the remaining period. customers using prepayment meters will receive support in the form of discount vouchers. 0ur consumer affairs corrspondent, colletta smith, reports.

a few months ago, the government made this announcement. we have decided that the £200 of support for household energy bills will be doubled to £a00 for everyone. we are on the side of hard—working families, with £6 billion of financial support. now we�*re hearing the details of how and when the money will arrive. for direct debit customers, £66 will be deducted automatically from your monthly payments in october and november, and then £67 will come off your bills from december through to march. prepayment customers who use a smart app to top up their meter won�*t need to do anything either. that same amount will be automatically credited onto their accounts each month. but most prepayment customers don�*t have a smart meter. butjust over two million homes have a traditional

prepayment meter like this, where you have to take a key down to your local shop or post office, give them cash and get money added into your account that you then plug in to turn on the gas and electricity. and getting money to those homes is going to be much more difficult. they should get vouchers each month to use to top up, arriving as a text, an email or a letter through the post. hi, love, you all right? good to see you. i spoke to winston when the price cap increased a few months ago. now, even in summer, the credit doesn�*t last long. extra money from the government will help, but won�*t be enough. it�*s the skin off the rice pudding. it really is, you know. grateful, yes, of course we�*re grateful, you know, but if it�*s costing me £5 a day and they�*re giving me £a00, how long is that actually going to last? i can�*t afford to run a bath. that�*s mad.

if you were to get a text message or an email saying, "here�*s £66, click on this link," would you do it? would you be worried? i�*d think it was a scam. you know, what happened to the people who are not like that, who are not savvy, tech savvy? there�*s a lot of people that are falling through the cracks. that�*s why energy charities are worried. for several reasons, people might not open that post. they might have a bad relationship with their supplier. they might be in debt to their supplier and be afraid to open those those envelopes. so we expect some prepayment customers to miss out. prepayment customers are already paying the most for their energy, but the government says it�*s reasonable that every household is being given the same amount. there are many people who are not on means—tested benefits that are perhaps just above the benefit level, but are still really struggling with these really high bills. so we thought this was the fairest and easiest way to distribute the money. however welcome, with energy prices rising again at the start

of october, that money will drain even faster. karl smith, bbc news, in manchester. —— coletta smith, bbc news, in manchester. you can get more information on the cost of living crisis on our website. it includes details of how fast prices are rising and tips to save money. just head to bbc.co.uk/news. the united nations has told the uk government that it must keep archie battersbee alive. the un committee on the rights of persons with disabilities said the 12—year—old�*s life support should not be removed while it considered the case. archie�*s parents had appealed to the un after the supreme court refused to intervene in the case yesterday. southern water has become the first in the country to introduce a hosepipe ban this summer. it will come into force next week in hampshire and the isle of wight. people won�*t be allowed to use sprinklers or hoses to water gardens, clean cars or fill ponds and swimming pools.

temperatures recorded across much of the uk. a0 celsius were spelt here for the very first time. our transport network creek and the heat combined with dry weather to lower water levels and create conditions for buyers to spread. for a long time it has been clear that global warming makes heatwaves more frequent and more intense. but in recent years, there have been big advancesin recent years, there have been big advances in climate modelling which means scientists are able to look at what is behind specific weather events. like last week�*s extremely hot few days. having these temperatures... climatologists, including experts from imperial college, london and the met office, have been working round the clock, looking at whether human actions made last week�*s heatwave worse. we would not have had last week�*s temperatures without climate change, that�*s for sure. so these temperatures are at least two degrees higher than they would have been

without climate change, but much likely that the real number is closer to what we see in the observations, which is about four degrees. so climate change absolutely played a really, really big role. that�*s with the world warming by 1.1 degree. with global greenhouse gas emissions yet to start falling, even hotter weather and more heatwaves look inevitable. the implications are that if we want to keep a heatwave like this a rare event, we really have to get to net zero greenhouse gas emissions very soon. the current goal is net zero emissions by 2050. to reach it, we�*re going to have to stop using fossil fuels to run our cars, warm our homes and generate electricity. jonah fisher, bbc news.

the uk�*s competition watchdog has said it�*s investigating three fashion retailers over concerns they may have misled customers about how environmentally friendly their clothes are. the competition and markets authority says it will scrutinise green claims made by asos, boohoo and asda about their supposedly sustainable clothing ranges. i�*m joined now by maeve galvin, the policy director at fashion revolution — which campaigns for, in their words, "a clean, safe, fair, transparent and accountable fashion industry." thank you very much for talking to us. are you surprised by the decision of the competition and markets authority to intervene? that markets authority to intervene? not at all. markets authority to intervene? tint at all. obviously we have to see what these investigations, what the outcomes are, but we have been seeing a rise in greenwashing for a really long time. there is data that says as many as a0% of environmental claims could be misleading. this is

really pervasive. in fashion, what we have noticed is there is a rise in conjunction with the rise of social media as campaigners were frustrated by this, it has gotten more sophisticated, and we also feel that the frustration is that really misleading green claims distract from the areas in which the industry is just not making progress. for example, fashion workers in the supply chain being feed or paid fairly. social issues get cast aside because of these green claims. in terms of the actual claims made themselves, we see a lot of big language, we see a lot of half truths about particular products stop what we really need a strong regulation on terminology. terms like equal, bio, sustainable, they can all be used very indiscriminately by brands. the reality is we need regulation on that because it is working towards different standards. and we need deterrence for brown might be tempted to or exaggerate or out

the film review. hello and a very warm welcome to the film review on bbc news. taking us through this week�*s cinema releases is as ever, mark kermode. hi, mark. so we have an interesting week, we have 13 lives, which is a real life rescue drama. we have dc league of super—pets, pretty much does what it says on the tin. and fire of love, a volcanic love story. quite a mixture. yes, let�*s start with 13 lives. this is a dramatisation by director ron howard of the thai cave rescue of 2018 about which there was a documentary recently that we discussed... yet, not that long ago. that�*s right. ajuniorfootball team and their coach, 13 of them trapped in a cave following flooding. the screenplay is by

william nicholson, as i said, ron howard, who is a very good director, and in the past directed things like apollo 13, which is again, a real life rescue mission. colin farrell and viggo mortensen — who you wouldn�*t recognise when they come on screen — as the british cavers who first find the boys and their coach. here�*s a clip. how do you stay so strong? we are team. we help each other, and our coach help us. coach? on behalf of our coach, we stay strong. he teach us to meditate. and we pray. you pray? i bet you do.

this is to get out. good work. so, the terrifying thing is... yeah, i feel the same way. my stomach�*s already going. i know, caves... water, oh! i�*m claustrophobic at the best of times. 0k, they found them, how do they get them out? because in order to get them out, you have to be a trained diver, it�*s terrifying. the anaesthetist to whom they turn for a plan, he initially says, "look, this is insane, you can�*t do this, it�*s mad," basically to find a way of making

the boys almost like packages. at one point they say, "they are packages, "we are the delivery people." they say, "but, look, if we don�*t do anything, everyone is going to die." so this is an incredibly dramatic a story. and i have to say, it�*s very well rendered by ron howard. it�*s remarkable that even though we know the outcome, because, of course, an international news story, they still sat there watching it, biting my nails thinking this isjust... i mean, if you made this up, nobody would believe you. yes. if you wrote this as a hollywood spec script, they would say, "no, that absolutely cannot happen." the film is very much about people volunteering to help. there�*s people on top of the mountain trying to divert the rain. there�*s one really moving bit in which the farmers are asked, look, we need to flood your fields to get the rain off. and they go, "will it help the boys? "yeah, fine, in that case do it." so it is a story of everyday

heroism, but it is also like a really gripping thriller about people trapped in an underground cave. i�*m just... i sort of want to see it and sorted don�*t know and sort of don�*t know if i have the stomach for it. which is as you say, we know what happens, so i don�*t think they�*d be able to make the film this close to it a few years on... if the outcome hadn�*t been as remarkable as it was. i mean, i was reminded that when i saw ron howard�*s apollo 13, i saw it with somebody who didn�*t know how apollo 13 ended because they were younger than me. and they were really surprised that it ended the way it did. it�*s like wow, who would of thought? but i think this is a very well—made drama, the documentary is obviously very powerful. this is in cinemas now. it will be on prime video on august the 5th. ron howard does know how to do this stuff. yes, i loved apollo 13. so we move to... animated... 0k, dc league of super—pets, animated super animals,

lex luther captures a bunch of superheroes, puts them in cages, and then it�*s left to an assortment of, you know, superman�*s dog and a bunch of shelter dogs to save the day. the voice artists are dwaynejohnson, kevin hart and kate mckinnon as a hairless guinea pig who has gone over to the dark side and dreams of world domination. i kind of sat there watching this thinking, ok, this is a dogs dinner of a movie. this is something in which a bunch of people have sat around and gone, "you know, are there any holes in the super hero market that we haven�*t plugged yet? why don�*t we try and see whether this works?" all the individual voice artists sound like they are on different planets, notjust in different rooms. the plot is weirdly... sometimes it�*s really stupid and sometimes it�*s unnecessarily complicated. it�*s notjust that i�*m not the target audience. look at the lego movie, look at how great that was, look at into the spiderverse, look at how great that was. this just felt utterly soulless and corporate. maybe a young viewer who is particularly excited by a flying dog, but...

you see, i watched the trailer and i laughed several times because it was about dogs talking to each other about their humans. and as a dog owner and a dog lover, i laughed out loud. but maybe that�*s the best bit. here�*s the thing, love dogs, have always had dogs, wouldn�*t be without dogs, really thought this was below par. 0k. can�*t think why i haven�*t seen it yet! so, a really curious documentary. fire of love, which is a documentary about french volcanologists, people who study volcanoes. you�*ve seen this documentary. we are told very early on this is the last image of them. so we know that the story has got a tragic ending. it�*s a national geographic label at the front, so you know what you�*re going to see is some spectacular science footage. the pair of them, very much equals who dedicate their lives to going to exploding volcanoes,

erupting volcanoes, and filming and doing research. and of course you�*re going to get extraordinary visuals, but what the film is also trying to tell you is that this is not just about volcanoes, this is a love story. here�*s a clip. alone, they could only dream of volcanoes, together they can reach them. they meet on a blind date at a cafe. from here on out, life will only be volcanoes, volcanoes, volcanoes. for them, the unknown is not something to be feared, it is something to go toward. so spectacular footage, an extraordinary story. extraordinary story, it holds your attention for sure.

i could have lived without narration. yes, i found the voiceover, i�*m afraid... to me, although you�*re right, it�*s a love story as well as telling factual issues, it�*s... am i seeing this top journalistically? —— am i seeing this too journalistically? to me, it�*s still a documentary, and i wanted the script written in a slightly more documentary style, a few harder facts and a tougher narration, i�*m afraid. it felt to me weirdly emotionally overwrought. i thought what it was trying to do was get towards that werner herzog ecstatic truth kind of narration. the very few people other than herzog can get away with. that said, their story is remarkable. some of the footage is absolutely extraordinary, them wearing those silver suits, standing really close. right by it, yes. you spend a lot of the film going, "get back, get back!" molten lava. i mean, just for the footage alone and the fact that their story, and it is a story of equals, they are both... that thing about they couldn�*t do it

alone, they had to do it together. i think that is really, really important. ijust wanted the narration to back off and just let me watch it. i suppose, ok, this is the way you would sell it to a mainstream audience because otherwise it might seem a little bit niche. there is remarkable stuff in there, itjust didn�*t need to be told like that. it was like that. absolutely. fascinating story but we are on the same page there. but i finally went to see brian and charles. please tell me that you loved brian and charles. idid, yes. a couple of hesitations maybe about wasn�*t sure how to end it, but fundamentally i really liked it. there were lots of us in the cinema, everyone was laughing out loud. and that�*s interesting because a lot of it is funny but it still really touching. really poignant. the opening sequences, literally just about loneliness and itjust broke me. ok, that for me is the genius of it.

yes, it�*s a story about the guy who builds a robot out of the washing machine and a manikin head. why? because he�*s lonely. because he�*s living on his own in his inventing shed and he�*s inventing all these crazy things. and then he almost accidentally builds his best friend. and then doesn�*t quite know how to deal with the best friend going. my favourite thing was when the robot charles becomes an adolescent and says i�*m going to sit in the front of the car. no you�*re not, yes i am, front, front, front. i mean, i thought all that stuff was lovely. it�*s so low budget, it�*s made with such a lot of heart. it�*s really made with love, that�*s where i felt. it felt like a passion project but that�*s how it comes across in the best possible way. it is a passion project life as a standup act and then a short film, and i�*ve been banging the drum for it for a few weeks with a am so glad you liked it because otherwise we would�*ve had to stop speaking. it�*s just so charming. it is, that�*s a good word.

properly charming. it is. 0n the subject of re—issues, paris texas is back in cinemas. they�*ve been doing this series of reissues. this is probably the most celebrated. cannes prize winner, superb soundtrack. the film, if you are of a certain age in the 80s you had to have a poster for paris in texas on your wall. and it was that picture. that picture. you have to have the soundtrack album, you have to have a discussion about how does it fit in? there is a very good documentary, motion and emotion, which talks about his entire career and how this film sits in it. had have you seen paris, texas in the cinema? well, maybe i was at university but so long ago. you weren�*t allowed to graduate if you hadn�*t seen it. it was a course requirement. it didn�*t matter if you do a mechanical engineering,

you had to see paris, texas without its back in cinemas and it�*s worth seeing. just nice to have seen the movies back on the big screen again. all right, fantastic. interesting week. so glad you loved brian and charles. enjoy your cinema going. see you next time. bye— bye. hello. many of us need rain at the moment, some of us are going to get some over the weekend, but it may well be that southern parts of the uk stay pretty much dry. there is the increasing chance of some rain at times, but not all the time as we move through the weekend at the commonwealth games in birmingham and the west midlands, and that rain bearing cloud has been gathering to the north west of us, this strip of cloud on our earlier satellite image. this is in association with a frontal system starting to push in now from the northwest, bringing cloud and rain through the evening across northern ireland into scotland. the odd heavy burst over high ground in the west, rain too into north west england and north wales, and it will be

turning really misty and murky with some hill and coastalfog across many of these north western areas. clear spells further south and east. it will be warm and muggy, 12 to 16 celsius the overnight lows. so into tomorrow, this frontal system continues to trudge its way slowly southwards and eastwards with that extensive cloud, that mist and fog and those outbreaks of rain. so rain pushing southwards through the morning across scotland and northern ireland, tending to clear out into northern england, parts of north wales. it won�*t be raining all the time. that rain will be quite sporadic, quite on and off. some of it could just drift into the north midlands and maybe even parts of east anglia as we go through the afternoon. but very little, if any, rain getting down into southern counties, where will be warm 26 or 27 celsius. but even further north, quite warm and quite humid, 22 celsius, for example, there in aberdeen. through saturday night, we see a feed of cloud continuing to roll in from the west. still some rather misty, murky conditions, especially around the coasts and over the hills. further outbreaks of rain drifting in as well.

for sunday, there�*s a bit of uncertainty about just how far north orjust how far south this lump of wet weather will be. but it does look quite likely that southern counties aren�*t going to see very much rain, and it will brighten up later across scotland and northern ireland. feeling cooler and fresher here. still pretty warm and humid down towards the south. so 26 celsius likely to be the temperature at wembley for the kick—off of the euro 2022 final, could be the odd spot of rain from this cloud. and then as we head into next week, there is some rain in the outlook, but, again, most of that up towards the north and the west of the uk, not much of it down to the south. it should turn a little cooler, though, later in the week.
