this is definitely two very contrasting narratives. this is bbc news. the headlines: in the united states, the number of people known to have been killed by flash floods caused by torrential rains in kentucky has risen to 16, and is expected to double. six children are among the dead. kyiv and moscow are accusing each other of a rocket attack that's said to have killed a0 ukrainian prisoners of war in the donetsk region. those detained are said to have included members of the infamous azov battalion who were the last defenders of mariupol. rebekah vardy says she's devastated at losing the high court libel claim she brought against another footballer�*s wife, coleen rooney. vardy had sued after she was accused of leaking private information to the press.

with hitachi rail, the city is piloting a new system to allow seamless hands—free payment and ticketing. all from a smart the system works across the city's very networks including buses, subways, public cliffs, water buses and stop it's a unique city when it comes to the geography. city when it comes to the geography-— city when it comes to the ieohrah ,. ., , ., city when it comes to the ii-eorah .~ . , ., ., geography. we have the sea and we have mountains. _ geography. we have the sea and we have mountains. we - geography. we have the sea and we have mountains. we have - geography. we have the sea and we have mountains. we have up| we have mountains. we have up and down hills, we have elevators, whatever, so inside the offer of the main operator, at least seven or eight means of transportation is that is something unique. normally you have either bus, tram underground, that's it. literally everything from boats to elevators. 50 literally everything from boats to elevators.— to elevators. so we thought that if we — to elevators. so we thought that if we managed - to elevators. so we thought that if we managed to - to elevators. so we thought i that if we managed to connect the city, —

for them to survive out filming as they kept getting overheated, but i think that if we can overlay things like maps and steps, the kind of data you want, they could be quite useful once the battery life is sorted. the thing is, right now, i havejust looked at sorted. the thing is, right now, i have just looked at some games and stuff that is a bitter massive, which was fun, but would i want to do it again? i don't know. i think they need a real—world purpose. so, you found the field of view disappointing?— disappointing? yes, there is a real trade-off _ disappointing? yes, there is a real trade-off between - disappointing? yes, there is a| real trade-off between battery real trade—off between battery life, the weight of the glasses and how much augmented reality you are going to get in them. but hopefully by the time they are a consumer device that will be balance out a bit better. we have been _ be balance out a bit better. we have been talking about that for ages. that is it from us from the riverside transport museum. what do you fancy? i will have the bus, please. i for now. —— by for now.

hello there. it really is a bit of a mixture for us this weekend. some cloud, even some rain, but also some warm spells of sunshine. and we ended the week on a warmer note, with more sunshine around, temperatures in southern parts of england reached 28 celsius. wasn't quite as warm as that in birmingham. and for the commonwealth games this weekend, there'll still be a lot of cloud around. may get some rain actually sunday and later on monday, as well. all that rain will be coming in from the atlantic. this ribbon of cloud here will be staggering down across the uk — it's already brought some rain across northern ireland into scotland, some patchy rain maybe for a while across northern england and north wales. but we start off quite warm, actually, for much of the country on saturday morning. but for the northern half of the uk, this is where we've got the thickest of the cloud, and we're seeing most of the rain.

through the morning, though, it should become drier and brighter in northern ireland and scotland, some sunny spells in the afternoon. still some rain for england and wales — most of it will be across northern parts of england and north wales. further south, it's generally dry, and there'll be some sunshine, as well. another warm day to come through much of the midlands, particularly in the southeast and east anglia, temperatures 26—27 celsius. could make a warm 22—23 in eastern scotland with some sunshine in the afternoon. but there's a lot of cloud heading our way from the atlantic overnight, continuing into sunday, perhaps bringing some more rain — that's more likely across england and wales, although it could prove to be rather hit—and—miss. and with that damper weather moving southwards, it'll dry off with more sunshine across north wales and northern england. may stay dry all day in scotland and northern ireland, slightly cooler and fresher here. but again, little or no rain, really, ithink, across the far south of england, and it should be quite warm at wembley for the women's euro final. a lot of cloud here — hopefully we've got something to cheer about by the end of the day. heading into the beginning of next week, though, we've got some more weather fronts heading our way from the atlantic, and that potentially will bring some more rain.

having said that, many places will start dry on monday, and there'll be some sunshine around, too. but the cloud will be thickening up from the west — that'll bring with it some rain. at the moment, mostly across northern ireland, wales, moving over the irish sea later in the day to the northwest of england, and into the south—west of scotland. still dry though, towards the southeast, and temperatures here again into the mid—20s.

blackouts spells to reach up to 67 celsius.
