it's absolutely right that all of us who are concerned with criminal justice in policing should recognise the wrong that was done and the damage that it did to a family. i know about the apology through the bbc. on behalf of the family, i do accept the apology. it's quite sad that they're no longer here to accept any apology. and there was no apology given back when they were here. now it's time for a look at the weather with nick miller. hello. wettest across western parts of the uk today. there are some met office weather warnings out there for the rain, for example into northern ireland and parts of scotland. so do have a look at those online. as we get on into the evening of tonight, some of the heaviest rain across western parts will begin to ease before pepping up again later in the night. area of rainfall pushing further north through scotland. the showers that have developed into parts of england will begin to fade away. quite a warm night out there.

we start tomorrow with heavy rain, windy conditions in northern ireland that will push away as it starts to brighten up. we will see some further pulses of rain pushing north through scotland, persistently wet through parts of eastern scotland. as for wales, the western side of england, some showery rain occasionally too, just starting to push a little bit further in towards parts of the midlands and across northern england, whereas the eastern side of england, much of east anglia, for example, stays dry with warm, sunny spells. just looking into sunday evening, the rainjust peps up again towards south wales and south west england, and once again with a stronger breeze. low pressure close by throughout the week ahead, further rain or showers around. hello this is bbc news. the headlines: nasa calls off their second attempt to launch its most powerful rocket, artemis 1 to the moon — five days after technical problems scuppered the first. moscow blames maintenance problems for failing to resume the main pipeline that transports gas from russia to europe

after a three day closure. it's going to be harder to fill up gas storage, it will be raising the risks of energy shortages this winter and it's really sharpens dilemmas for european politicians as they plan for what could be a very difficult situation of the next few months. mourners have paid their respects to the last soviet leader, mikhail gorbachev, who was buried in moscow, this afternoon. now on bbc news it's time for sportsday. hello and welcome to sportsday. england's european champions are on their way to the world cup after a 2—0 win over austria. it was a draw in the derby on merseyside with both clubs' goalkeepers putting in excellent performances.

it's a second successive title for the oval invincibles who are living up to their name after being crowned women's hundred champions again a superstar on and off the court — serena bids farewell to tennis on an emotional night in new york. hello and welcome to sportsday. the parties are over and it's back to the important business of football and qualifying for the world cup for the england women's team, crowned european champions just over a month ago. the lionesses beat austria 2—0 to claim their place at the 2023 world cup in australia and new zealand. bbc sport correspondent natalie pirks was watching the action.

at the euros quarterfinalists austria may have won new fans but england won the trophy. albeit, fans of the lionesses were a rare breed here. �* , . , here. after the summer we have “ust com - letel here. after the summer we have “ust completely fallen fl here. after the summer we have 'ust completely fallen in i here. after the summer we have 'ust completely fallen in love i here. after the summer we have 'ust completely fallen in love with h here. after the summer we have just | completely fallen in love with women because my football. irate completely fallen in love with women because my football.— because my football. we are lucky, we live here. _ because my football. we are lucky, we live here, so _ because my football. we are lucky, we live here, so if— because my football. we are lucky, we live here, so if you _ because my football. we are lucky, we live here, so if you are - because my football. we are lucky, we live here, so if you are better, l we live here, so if you are better, but i _ we live here, so if you are better, but i don't — we live here, so if you are better, but i don't dig many. i we live here, so if you are better, but i don't dig many.— we live here, so if you are better, but i don't dig many. i would have referred but i don't dig many. i would have preferred it _ but i don't dig many. i would have preferred it to _ but i don't dig many. i would have preferred it to be _ but i don't dig many. i would have preferred it to be in _ but i don't dig many. i would have preferred it to be in the _ but i don't dig many. i would have preferred it to be in the big - preferred it to be in the big stadium _ preferred it to be in the big stadium in _ preferred it to be in the big stadium in vienna - preferred it to be in the big stadium in vienna because| preferred it to be in the bigi stadium in vienna because i preferred it to be in the big - stadium in vienna because i think they deserve _ stadium in vienna because i think they deserve it _ stadium in vienna because i think they deserve it.— they deserve it. yes, this tiny stadium was _ they deserve it. yes, this tiny stadium was a _ they deserve it. yes, this tiny stadium was a far— they deserve it. yes, this tiny stadium was a far cry - they deserve it. yes, this tiny stadium was a far cry from i they deserve it. yes, this tiny - stadium was a far cry from wembley, but that wasn't the only different. and i super sub role in the euros, alessia russo was on from the start, have finish wasn't half bad either. austria almost pounced immediately on a collectors item, a lucy bronze mistake. herteam—mates on a collectors item, a lucy bronze mistake. her team—mates rushed to her aid and the lines were fluffed. the theme continued in the second half, this was a let off. england needed to buck their ideas up fast full stop eight minutes after she

had come onto the pitch, nikita parris took up the perfect position and georgia stanway found her with the perfect pass. it was a special moment for the james family, the first brother and sister combo to both play for england. england's winning streak goes on, 70 goals in just nine world cup qualifiers. job done with some to spare. that was in england best performance, but people won't mind, they can now book their flights to the world cup, how the european champions would love to add that trophy to their cabinets. again, a hard game, but coming out of the euros, not having that much rest, some of the players playing champions league, viz playing as many minutes, i think after all of that i am very proud of the team that i am very proud of the team that we came out like this and we just won the game, it looks so easy but i think it was pretty hard.

lets turn our attention to the premier league then. eight matches this afternoon, that began with the merseyside derby. everton and liverpool both desperate for a win to really get their stuttering starts to the season going. it was an action packed game at goodison, despite the 0—0 scoreline with neither side able to find a goal. joe lynskey reports. for other castes spent on new soundings, so much value for everton comes from goodison. this was merseyside at full volume for the derby. the home side have a local in the heart of the team. tom davies grew up down the road where he would have dreams about shots like this going in. liverpool's front line still work in progress. they have added one player. he came that close to the opener. in fact, liverpool struck the post again in succession. replays showed the first shots brought to this from jordan

pickford. the everton and england keeper can have days where he is inspired. this was one of them. everton's sensed a chance. in their sixth game and they chase their first win of the season and thought this was the one. conor coady used to play for liverpool, it would have been remarkable, but for the ar, in the end it stayed 0—0. once again in stoppage time pickford got a touch on the post. this eventful derby brought no goals but in the goodison noise, one man was inspired. both teams have to fight like crazy, both teams did that, i thought today we had different games where sometimes it was a bit overly hard, this wasn't the case. and so, it's 0-0, this wasn't the case. and so, it's 0—0, because the amount of chances and especially because of the timing of our last one... yes, it feels a little bit like we lost too, but i'm

not silly. it's absolutely ok and let's go from here. very intense, good auali , go from here. very intense, good quality. both _ go from here. very intense, good quality, both teams _ go from here. very intense, good quality, both teams incredible - quality, both teams incredible performances by both goalkeepers. it's performances by both goalkeepers. it's my— performances by both goalkeepers. it's my first experience of a derby here, _ it's my first experience of a derby here, from — it's my first experience of a derby here, from beginning to end, more than anything from our point of view, _ than anything from our point of view, the — than anything from our point of view, the spirit and work of our players — view, the spirit and work of our players. they are a great team, and we were _ players. they are a great team, and we were at — players. they are a great team, and we were at the beginning of the processed but what you see today is a team _ processed but what you see today is a team that — processed but what you see today is a team that is progressing, we are working _ a team that is progressing, we are working hard, spirit, hardware, also quality— working hard, spirit, hardware, also qualitvto_ working hard, spirit, hardware, also quality to play and we are playing hetter— quality to play and we are playing better and we will get better. tottenham remain unbeaten so far this season after their 2—1 win over fulham. tottenham's goals came from pierre—emile hojbjerg and harry kane but there was a nervy last 10 minutes in store with in—form fulham striker alexander mitrovic scoring in the 83rd minute. spurs stayed ahead though and are second in the table.

this type of game, i think you needed to become killer and to close the game because as you have seen, if you keep the game open, it can happen that your opponents score and you finish the game with... after a record summer of spending in the transfer market chelsea defeated west ham 2—1 this afternoon. they had to come from behind to do it though with west ham opening the scoring just after the hour mark through an michail antonio goal. chelsea came back to go 2—1 up. and west ham thought max cornet had scored an equaliser in the 90th minute but the goal was controversially disallowed leaving thomas tuchel�*s side with the three points. it was scandalous decision. incredible. the goalkeeper spills out, comes in his hand, five or six

yards, he couldn't recover the ball and the referee gave the goal and i don't know who signed up to the ar, but whoever did should get well looked at as well as the referee. i have always the referee would hold it down a garbage in this decision want to go to the screen. i could not overturn it but say this is a goal because i have seen a a clip of it on the site. i find it incredibly difficult to see how that can be chopped off. i don't know who nva are sent them there. they need to have a look at themselves whether that was. totte n ha m tottenham have dropped down to third because of the late game. champions manchester city are in second place in the permier leagie table after a 1—1 draw with aston villa in the late game today. you might not be surprised to hear that a certain norwegian striker was on the scoresheet again... erling haaland made it 10 goals in just six games at city. but leon bailey equalised for aston villa as city drew their third game of the season. ben croucher reports.

if you are the manchester city manager of the tactics don't have to be that obligated. recently giving the ball to erling haaland has been a decent bet with back—to—back hat tricks. initially, city tried other options but kyle walker is a defender. and another isn't quite as tall as erling haaland. finding a way to break aston villa down was proving to be more of a challenge. the home side on the back foot, largely had their moments, but ollie watkins couldn't hit the target either. manchester city no luck either. manchester city no luck either. already, into double figures for the season on september the 3rd. still, it was just one goal, manchester city and deploying a mac. aston villa's first shot on target or game. their only shot on target all game for this was a day when the

tactics and personnel didn't matter so much as one simple fact. you just had to take your chances. brentford haven't been beaten at home this season after they continued their good form at the brentford community stadium. it was an excellent 5—2 defeat of leeds united with ivan toney scoring a hat trick which takes him past the 50 goal mark for the club. it was a second successive away loss for leeds. not normally, not allowed to shoot outside the penalty area... today, again, a penalty from just maggie the best penalty taken the world. i know it's big words, but ijust speak what i see, every week, how he does it and he is so cool and composed and got a good strategy for it. the free kick, a brilliant one and the last one is ridiculous, that's composure. instead of

smashing it, trying to cite for it, just chip it over. in the day's other games, newcastle and crystal palace drew 0-0. nottingham forest were 2—0 up at half time but three second half goals gave bournemouth a 3—2 victory. wolves have their first league win of the season — a 1—0 win over southampton. you can see all of the goals on match of the day from 10:25pm. we've heard already about the merseyside derby but in the scottish premiership there was another huge derby match going on — the first old firm game of the new season. celtic have gone five points clear at the top after a comprehensive 4—0 defeat of their arch rivals rangers. the champions never really looked in trouble with a scintillating first half display. andy burke was watching. meetings between celtic and rangers aren't the be all and end all in the race for the scottish premiership

title, but on derby day in glasgow, it can certainly feel that way. celtic have been scoring for fun lately and it took them less than eight minutes to hit the front here. another post up a big chance to bring rangers a level. another not so wasteful at the other end. the champions were in full flow and things got even better before the break. a calamitous mistake from the keeper, rathersummed break. a calamitous mistake from the keeper, rather summed up the rangers day, david turnbull taking full advantage to make it 4—0. a dominant display on a day when everything went according to plan celtic, well, just about everything. third placed, aberdeen were surprised by a late equaliser from ross county. 1—1 the final score. not a great lead up to their europa conference league group game for hearts they were defeated by livingston. saintjohnstone had their first scottish premiership

win infourgames. a comfortable 3—0 win over saint mirren. hibe beat kilmarnock. motherwell and dundee united played out a goalless draw. next to the hundred, where the oval invincibles are living up to their name, in the women's competition at least. they are champions for the second year in a row after victory over southern brave at lord's. in a repeat of last years final, the invincibles won by five wickets with just 6 balls to spare in front of a record crowd for a women's domestic game. our sports correspondent joe wilson is there. did that get your attention press like it's supposed to. the hundred is cricket moving, new audiences. nothing advertises the game like outstanding players. bowling fast for oval invincible is and the woman with the catch was her. the south african is a star of the world game,

bowling here 18—year—old alex, she is part of england's future, spin bowling, quick bowling. it was all tough going for southern braves matters. after that, what oval invincible tactic to do to win the final, to retain their title was to score 102. but now their batter is a struggle. wickets kept falling, lauren bell and other young english player helping to give the brave club. another has been playing big situations since the debbie for her south african team. 37 from her state of the invincible is to victory. emily winds up puzzling winning runs with six bulls to spare and with some 20 thousand in the stand. in that sense they remain, invincible. that's the women's final. the men's final is between trent rockets and the manchester

originals. these are live photos. it wasn't a great start for the originals, they slept 22 runs for three wickets but they now are now 103 runs of 87 balls for seven wickets. we'll see what happens in the final, we will keep you up to date this evening. serena williams said an emotional farewell to tennis at the us open last night. after winning 23 grand slam singles titles, 1a major doubles titles, four olympic gold medals and having spent 319 weeks as the world number one, it is a careerfull of astonishing numbers that are unlikely to ever be beaten. serena williams's career has spanned over a quarter of a century and she has had an impact notjust on sport but on society too. laura scott looks back at her journey. a final farewell wave and one last

12 full, as the curtain came down on a glittering career that'll never been defeated. only getting it finished on an epic. on a thrilling night in new york, serena left it all on the court. giving everything until the end.— until the end. these are happy tears, i until the end. these are happy tears. i guess. _ until the end. these are happy tears, i guess, i— until the end. these are happy tears, i guess, i don't- until the end. these are happy tears, i guess, i don't know. i until the end. these are happy i tears, i guess, i don't know. i'm just so grateful to every single person that has ever said, go serena in their life. i'm just so grateful, because... in their life. i'm 'ust so grateful, because. . .— in their life. i'm 'ust so grateful, because. . ._ in their life. i'm 'ust so grateful, because... , �* ., because... yes, you've got me here. under the — because... yes, you've got me here. under the direction _ because... yes, you've got me here. under the direction of _ because... yes, you've got me here. under the direction of their - because... yes, you've got me here. under the direction of their father, i under the direction of their father, richard, serena and her sister venus sacrificed and succeeded. the story, so remarkable it was recently made into a motion picture. starring will smith. they broke down barriers in a sport that had been dominated by white wealthy competitors where men were the megastars. at times in her career, serena was the only woman in the top 100 best paid players in the

world. it was a 1999 when she burst onto the scene, a teenager who had beans in her hair and one of the us open. she would win five more in new york, seven in wimbledon. she finishes with 23 major singles trophies, not enough to break the record she so longed for. but she did so much more than win the title is, she transformed and transcended the game, inspiring people to play, dream and never shy away from who they are full stop all week, her fans haven't really been here to say goodbye, they have been here to say... goodbye, they have been here to sa . ~' goodbye, they have been here to sa . ~ i. goodbye, they have been here to sa . . ~ goodbye, they have been here to sa . . goodbye, they have been here to sa... . . say... thank you. thank you. go serena! many — say... thank you. thank you. go serena! many have _ say... thank you. thank you. go serena! many have feel - say... thank you. thank you. go i serena! many have feel privileged say... thank you. thank you. go - serena! many have feel privileged to share the court _ serena! many have feel privileged to share the court with _ serena! many have feel privileged to share the court with her. _ serena! many have feel privileged to share the court with her. i _ serena! many have feel privileged to share the court with her. i think - serena! many have feel privileged to share the court with her. i think i - share the court with her. i think i lost the first _ share the court with her. i think i lost the first six _ share the court with her. i think i lost the first six or _ share the court with her. i think i lost the first six or seven - share the court with her. i think i lost the first six or seven times. | lost the first six or seven times. she was just so strong, powerful, athletic. she was 'ust so strong, powerful, athletic. ., , athletic. some of those playing tribute included _ athletic. some of those playing tribute included former- athletic. some of those playing tribute included former first - athletic. some of those playing l tribute included former first lady michelle obama said how lucky we will be to be able to watch a young

girl from compton grow up to be one of the greatest athletes of all time. and olympic gymnastics championship treated... leaving the stage was never going to be easy. but all good things must come to an end. and so must the great ones. we can go live to flushing meadows now and speak to laura. it was an emotional night there but serena has plenty of plans for her future, has she alluded to what she wants to do? of course of the first question is whether she will be reconsidering her retirement after all, given that the tennis she has produced this week. i think she was teasing with us a little bit when she answered, you never know. because in reality she has a lot more that she wants to focus on beyond tennis. she really

wants to be a good mum to her daughter olympia as she said this week. apparently olympia would like a little sister, so who knows, that might be on the cards, we know serena williams has also been very focused on the business side of things. she started a capital venture capital firm if you years ago, likely she will focus on that. also, it's a seemingly inevitable that she will remain involved in a tennis in some way, she said last night the sport has given her so much over the last few decades, she can't imagine a life outside of tennis, just not on the course down the court. tennis, just not on the course down the court. and there are still two british players in the draw, how are cam norrie and dan evans doing? absolutely, cameron norrie and dan evans got through to the third round, we have the seen cameron norrie playing today, he was up against the danish 19—year—olds and he came through in straight sets in

that match. it was a very composed performance from cameron norrie, not so much from his opponent who was very angry at points over cameron aborting his balls in the sunny conditions, he was complaining to the pie, he was going to the fans, turned into a bit of a pantomime, but cameron norrie said he is feeling great and confident and really building into this tournament. he will play more next and a bit later today dan evans will hope tojoin him in and a bit later today dan evans will hope to join him in the fourth round, he plays the 2014 the champion. max verstappen delighted his fans to claim pole for his home race, the dutch grand prix, for the second year in a row. some of them got a bit over excited at zandvoort with a flare thrown on to the track bringing the second session of qualifying to a temporary halt. there was no stopping the championship leader verstappen in the final session as he beat ferrari's charle leclerc byjust two hundredths of a second,

the smallest margin of the season. sergio perez crashed his red bull on the final corner leaving britain's lewis hamilton unable to improve on fourth on the grid. it was goodbye very tight and you can see the dominance we had is not there any more. you can see how quickly its changes again when you go to a completely different track layout, different needs as well that they are a lot closer. rugby league's regular superleague season came to a close this afternoon, but not before some late drama at headingley, with leeds rhinos fighting back to seal their spot in the end of season playoffs. they were trailing castleford tigers with time running out but two late tries claimed a place for the rhinos, ending the tigers hopes of the playoffs. 14—8 was the final score, meaning leeds move up to fifth. they now head to perpignan to face catalans dragons on friday.

this is how the table finished. salford were beaten by warrington today so end the season in 6th. they'll now go to huddersfield in saturday's play—off. st helens, who were already assured top spot beat bottom side toulouse. and hull kr finished their season off with a big win in the hull derby. ineos grenadiers rider richard carapaz has claimed his second victory in three days at the vuelta a espana. the ecuadorian made his move with just over two miles to the finish and held on to win stage 14 by 8 seconds. remco evenepoel retained his lead, but it's been cut by almost a minute. britain's tayo gaygan hart has moved up to ninth overall. to rugby union and england's women have claimed a record—breaking 24th test win in a row. the red roses defeated the united states 52 points to 14

in a world cup warm—up game this afternoon. as the scoreline suggests, england dominated the match, running in eight tries. player of the match, claudia macdonald, among those to touch down twice. simon middleton's team, who won a fourth consecutive six nations title in april, are among the favourites for world cup glory when the event begins in new zealand on 8 october. after three successive home defeats, new zealand got back to winning ways in emphatic style in the rugby championship. they thrashed argentina 53—3 in hamilton — gaining revenge for their shock defeat last week. the all blacks ran in seven tries — by seven different scorers — this the last of them from beauden barrett. and south africa have got their first win since the opening weekend of the tournament. the world champions beat australia 24—8 — makazole mapimpi with the last of their four tries, in a heated encounter in sydney.

great britain's piggy march leads the burghley horse trials — after an exciting day's cross country. riding her badminton winnervanir kamira, march cruised round the hugely influential course — finishing just one second over the optimum time on 23 penalty points. but it's very tight at the top of the leaderboard and march can't afford to have a pole down in the final showjumping phase tomorrow — if she's to win her second 5 star event. that's all from sportsday. we will be back very soon on bbc news. goodbye for now. hello. still some warmth out there, particularly where you are getting to see some sunny spells and overall the weather picture is looking rather more autumnal for the rest of this weekend and into next week,

with the cloud thick enough to produce some thundery downpours in places. this is the rainfall picture from earlier today, and this is where we have seen the bulk of the rain so far across western parts of the uk. elsewhere there have been a few heavy showers as well. it is all down to an area of low pressure to the south—west of us. it will stay here for several days now, spinning up bands of rain and pushing north eastwards, but also some heavy and perhaps thundery showers, with quite breezy conditions. where we have seen the heaviest rain across western areas, notice how it will begin to become more patchy for a time before pepping up later in the night. we will feed outbreaks of rain further north through scotland. the further north you are, you have had a largely fine day. through central and eastern parts had some heavy showers but they will fade away and it will be quite warm overnight. quite muggy out there as well. many central and eastern areas will start the day dry, but for eastern scotland we start with heavy rain and there may be some disruption from that, as there may be early on in northern ireland before

the rain clears away. it does turn drier and brighter for the afternoon. for wales and for western parts of england, some showery rain that will push towards the midlands and other parts of northern england, whereas the eastern side of england will stay mainly dry with further warm and sunny spells and temperature into the mid 20s. quite windy through the irish sea early on, adjacent coasts and hills where we see some of the heavier rain. later on, toward south—west england and south wales, some of the rain will start to pep up once again as it moves its way further north. another area, another look at this area of low pressure going into monday, notice the position has not changed and again we will continue to see areas of rain or showers feeding through early on across parts of scotland, for example. heavy and possibly thundery showers will pop up elsewhere. quite windy towards the south—west. later on monday we could see heavy bursts of rain moving back in. notice how temperatures are above average for the time of year. still hitting 22 celsius, for example, in glasgow.

much of the rest of the week ahead is looking distinctly unsettled. showery and wet at times, windy occasionally, and it will turn just a little bit cooler.

this is bbc news, the headlines at 8pm... nasa calls off its second attempt to launch its most powerful rocket, artemis i, to the moon — five days after technical problems scuppered the first. we are going to stress this and test it and test that heat shield, and make sure it is right before we put four humans up on the top of it. moscow blames maintenance problems forfailing to resume the main pipeline that transports gas from russia to europe after a three day closure. mourners have paid their respects to the last soviet leader, mikhail gorbachev, who was buried in moscow, this afternoon.
