and appreciable rain for many as far south as the midlands potentially an drizzly rain further south. but unlike in the south and east, it introduced smoggy air so a warmer night across the board and we already have the warm weather from the south. but after that grass frost in the north. and that is really a trend for the next few days. the weather front keeps meandering southwards tomorrow, still some bursts of rain, itjust will not be for everybody and unlikely to reach the south and east. to the north of that on the breeze, sunshine developing with sours —— i was in the north—west. breezy tomorrow, but warmer because we carrying the moist air from the atlantic. 23 or 24 in the north, 29 or 30 in the south potentially after warm nights, very warm day indeed. one again tuesday night into wednesday with this weather it could give rain at the commonwealth games tomorrow and again on wednesday. its close proximity to birmingham, but travelling southwards and weakening.

england have had a sizeable lead over australia whittled away and by end at leamington spa. they had an eight—point lead at one stage, they are now leaving by two. you can watch this live on any of the streams available on the pci player or the bbc sport website. that is heading towards an exciting conclusion. that is heading towards an exciting conclusion. it's the men's floor final in gymnastics. it has provided another gold medal, confirmed just in the last few moments forjake jarman, just 20 years old, who has now won three gold medals at these games, at the team, the individual all—around, not the individual floor final. after2.00pm, northern ireland's rhys mcclenaghan defends his pommel horse title.

congratulations once again to jake jarman, his third gold. congratulations once again to jake jarman, his third gold. fernando alonso willjoin aston martin next season, replacing the retiring sebastian vettel. the two—time world champion will leave alpine, where he's been for the last two seasons. alonso described aston martin as one of the most exciting teams in formula one, despite not being frontrunners. he's signed a two—year deal and is expected to be replaced at alpine by formula two champion oscar piastri. team europe are due to announce they new ryder cup captain this afternoon. it comes after henrik stenson was stripped of the leadership when hejoined the saudi funded liv golf series. it's expected that former world number one luke donald will replace him. donald has twice been vice—captain and made four appearances as a player, winning each one. sprinter adam gemili has split with his coach, rana reider,

who is under investigation over sexual misconduct complaints. gemili said the "bad press" around reider has hindered his performance after an underwhelming campaign at the world championships last month. reider was warned by police after allegedly gaining unauthorised access to the warm—up area in eugene. so, much more from the commonwealth games here in birmingham. the atmosphere in victoria square continues to build as they enjoyed the sunshine, there could be more gold medals for the host nation, england, in the bowls very soon. jake jarman has just won another gold medal in the floor final at the gymnastics. let's get more now and that historic floor final ——

let's get more now and that historic floorfinal —— euro let's get more now and that historic floor final —— euro final last night. i think we have seen, with the professionalism of the game, more and more teams are going full—time professional and that is the girl's full—time income, and as there is more interest across the board, more teams will be able to make that next move and make thatjump and become a fully professionalised outfit, so sheffield united, for example, i would expect that would be the next step at some point in the future, and there will be many clubs to follow, i would assume. let's return now to the conservative leadership contest, as ballot papers are delivered today to conservative party members.

the final two candidates, rishi sunak and liz truss, have clashed over their differing policies on tax and tackling the cost of living. former chancellor mr sunak has unveiled a new pitch to party members calling for a 4% reduction in income tax by the end of the next parliament, while the foreign secretary, liz truss, wants to cut tax immediately. mr sunak was interviewed earlier about how he wants to help people keep on top of their bills. i'v e i've always said that we need to help people with the cost of living over this autumn and winter, so on top of the plants i announced as chancellor to get people £1200 of help, now the bills are higher than we thought it is right that we go further. i want to cut vat on energy bills to provide extra help for people. today i have been setting up a radical vision for where i want to take the economy after we get inflation under control. i want to cut income tax by 20%. we will do that responsibly over time, reducing our borrowing and we will grow the economy, taking advantage of our

confident, charismatic, calm under pressure. hailing frequencies open, sir. hailing frequencies open. hailing frequencies open, sir. conscious, too, of some of the limitations of the role. mr spock, sometimes i think if i hear that word frequency once more, i will cry. nichelle nichols's background was in musical theatre, a talent the show occasionally exploited. she sings her character on star trek was ground—breaking in many ways. the show broadcast one of television's first interracial kisses. mr spock, i haven't done anything like this in years. but perhaps more significant was seeing notjust a woman, but a black woman playing such a prominent role. i can think of no—one that are equipped to handle it, miss uhura. indeed, when she was considering leaving the show, she was persuaded to stay.

i'm afraid i changed my mind. after being introduced to martin luther king. when i told him i was leaving the show, he said, how can you leave? there is a door open here that you cannot allow to close because you have the first non—stereotypical role in television and the world is looking. hi, i'm nichelle nichols but i still feel a little bit like lieutenant uhura on starship enterprise. even after star trek, she continued to inspire subsequent generations, taking part in several nasa initiatives to encourage women and people from ethnic minorities to join the space programme. for her, it was a lifelong mission. have you lost all your sense of reality? she returned to star trek when it took to the cinema screen, having lost none of her character's determination. the old adrenaline going?

get in the closet. each star trek hoped to portray a future where prejudice had faded away. nichelle nichols played a huge part in bringing that future a step closer. the actor nichelle nichols who's died at the age of 89. nasa described her as a "trailblazer and role model" who "inspired generations to reach for the stars". the headlines on bbc news: moment football came home, england's women beat germany 2— want to become champions of europe for the first time in the most watched women's football game in uk tv history.

thousands of fans filled trafalgar square in central london to see the england players parade the trophy as celebrations continue around the country. a man has been remanded in custody charged with murdering nine—year—old lilia valutyte, he was stabbed to death in boston, lincolnshire, on thursday. time now for a look at some of the story is making the headlines across the uk. a caernarfon family say they are past "breaking point" having to care for their son day and night because of "ongoing issues" with his care package. hari jones requires constant supervision as a result of a rare neuromuscular condition.

a fond farewell, quite a send—off for hari jones after he finally left alder hey children's hospital in 2020 to go home to his family in caernarfon. harry has x—linked myotubular myopathy. his muscles don't work, so he can't walk or sit up and breathes through a ventilator and tube in his throat. after he came home, a private company were contracted by betsi cadwaladr health board to provide day and night care. but when the company suddenly pulled out in march last year, the health board took over and the family say that the lack of support has put an enormous strain on them. it's basically down to a couple of staff that are from agencies, bare minimum to the point that at the worst ellen's done 12 days, 12 nights, non—stop, her basic hours is 36 hours without sleep.

with michael himself suffering from a serious illness which left him in a coma, his partner, ellen, is often left to care for hari on her own, and she herself had suspected meningitis a few weeks ago. we've already passed the breaking points, we are just on just go—slow mode and just carrying on, we are completely empty. you want to go to school and see your friends? a bright little boy, hari would love to attend school, but has only been able to go a handful of times due to the situation. these are rare conditions that have very complex care needs, so finding appropriate staff and training them up to a standard where they are able to use tracheostomy equipment, non—invasive ventilation, feeding tubes, etc, is a much more difficult process. the health board says they're committed to providing hari's care themselves due to a lack

of suitable external agencies. they acknowledge that recruitment and training is taking time and that there are staffing challenges at times, but they insist that they're providing regular and consistent care and updates and offer to meet the family to discuss any concerns. with hari's condition so severe, the family are worried what lies around the corner. i might be looking back and thinking, we've wasted all that time fighting the system, when the system should have just been giving us the help that we deserve and need and that he should get to live every every day as it's the last, because we don't know what's going to happen next. as hari and his family hope for more support, they'll keep on focusing on making memories and being there for their son through all the challenges. the most productive nuclear power station in the country was switched off earlier today on the west somerset coast. hinkley point's b station started generating in 1946,

but today edf, the firm that runs it, called time. alice bouverie reports. from manning the control room to maintaining the plantm, monitoring the equipment to managing safety, like a queen bee, this power station has an army of devoted workers. some families have several generations working at hinkley point. paul's two brothers and his daughter are all there. i'm fortunate to be in one of the most beautiful areas of the country, so, yeah, why wouldn't you want to work here? when it was built, hinkley b was the first nuclear power station of its kind — an advanced gas—cooled reactor. many in the local community were not keen. adrian worked on the design before moving to the site and overseeing the construction. in fact, we had to redesign the structure so that it didn't make such an impact on the landscape. but, at the same time, we brought prosperity into the area. we would get farmers coming in being paid three

times their normal salary to pour concrete and fix steel and all that sort of thing, you know? the end of electricity generation at hinkley b comes after 46 years. they've been rehearsing for this moment for months in a simulated control room which mirrors every detail of the real thing. in terms of switches, dials, screens, everything it is the same, apart from the carpet, which is cleaner! pete has spent nearly all of his working life here. the end has got to come some time and, yeah, this is it. it's just really unfortunate because athere does feel like there is more life left in the plant, but we're going to have to go from making electric to making flasks. that's what's next for hinkley b. over the next three years, around 400 workers will stay on to defuel the station, with the flasks of used nuclear material being sent to cumbria. for the first time in 60 years, there is now no nuclear power station in the west.

what do you get when you take one van, a few volunteers and a whole load of food that would otherwise end up in landfill? a supermarket on wheels, which is helping residents in part of nottingham through the cost of living crisis by selling food at a fraction of the price. jodi law reports. local residents taking advantage of reduced food prices. local residents taking advantage of reduced food prices. oh, my god, it's amazing. it is so cheap. our life is easier. it's helping people like christina who's lived here for over 20 years. today i got bread, corn flakes, bananas, strawberries, and waffles. about £7. there's been an increase in food,

fuel and energy prices, so metropolitan thames valley wants to make sure it is playing its part in helping its residents to live well, be resilient and to be able to cope through those difficult times, so the mobile supermarket, bringing it here to the estate is exciting because it means our residents can get access to local affordable food. which has around 500 homes on this estate, foodprint which already has a social supermarket nearby in sneinton and the himmah foodbank in radford. everything loaded on to this van is in date, safe to eat and mostly donated by fairshare — a charity which distributes excess food from supermarkets which would otherwise go to waste. the supermarkets are going up at the time so that's why i come here. the price of the food and the quality i'm getting. nottingham city council are giving £10,000 to help this project expands to others areas of the city and help people with the cost—of—living pressure in basford, strelley and hyson green

in the coming months. jodi law, bbc east midlands today, nottingham. good afternoon. lots of dry, sunny weather out there again today in central and eastern areas, and now the statistics are in, it's been confirmed that parts ofjersey have had their driest july on record. the average is about 45 millimetres normally injuly. now, there is some rain on the way, some welcome rain, but it doesn't look as if it will affect the southern half of england, in particular. instead, we will see some heavier rain moving in across northern ireland into the west of scotland, western fringes of england and wales, later in the day. the best of the drier, sunnier weather will remain across central and eastern areas where its warm, and it feels quite muggy, and actually we will start to increase the humidity more generally under the influence of these weather fronts.

that's really the theme for the next two or three days. so, the heaviest rain pushing in through this evening and overnight, starting to sink a little bit further southwards. lots of local mist and hill fog around, and so drizzly, but it's unlikely we'll see much rain across south—eastern areas. but, for all parts, after the grass frost of last night in the glens of scotland, a far closer, warmer night for all, and a muggy day tomorrow, despite the passage of our weather front towards the south and the arrival of brighter skies and showers to the north, it remains warm and really quite muggy with those high dew points. it's really quite breezy, as well, through tonight and tomorrow. a little breezier than you'd normally expect at this time of year, but it's not going to stop the temperatures from getting to 30, potentially, ahead of that weather front in south—eastern areas tomorrow, and a warmer day further north. so, athletics tomorrow and para—athletics, as well, it should be dry across the midlands area, as you can see, but by the evening and overnight the weather front might start

to just bring a little bit of drizzly rain, low pressure still driving the weather, so still breezy and still showery across northern ireland, north—western scotland, in particular, but some good spells of sunshine elsewhere. this weather front might bring a few spots of drizzle to the south, but effectively it's a band of cloud, still very warm indeed and humid across many areas, starting to cool a little towards the north come wednesday, certainly by thursday we push that weatherfront away, we bring in a ridge of high pressure, change of wind direction, so that north—westerly will freshen the air a little bit, so by thursday and friday it will start to feel a bit more comfortable, notably for sleeping, for most.

this is bbc news — i'm chris rodgers — the headlines... the moment football came home — england's women beat germany 2—1 to become champions of europe for the first time, in the most watched women's football game in uk tv history. we side we wanted to make our legacy about winning, and that is we did. a man has been remanded in custody, charged with murdering nine—year—old lilia valutyte, who was stabbed to death in boston, lincolnshire on thursday. the court of appeal is holding a last—minute hearing in the case of archie battersbee — hours before doctors are due to withdraw life support. the first ship carrying grain leaves the ukrainian port
