will sing the welcome song complete with translations of ukrainian phrases and words. duggee is such a truly inclusive show that really celebrates friendships and meeting new people and experience new things. uk—based children can use this song and the words that they're learning from this song to welcome new arrivals that they're going to meet a lot through school or their nurseries. also itjust really is a lovely, special way to welcome those new children that are coming here, and showjust how much everyone can really befriends together. time for a look at the weather. here's christopher blanchett. a lovely start to the day across parts of east and south—east england. some sunshine and blue sky. elsewhere, rather cloudy conditions. wet and windy as well. you can see why, this swirl of cloud on the

satellite image, a deep area of low pressure that has been working its way eastwards through the course of the day. for many, under leaden skies it was the colours of autumn lifting proceedings. but it's not just the cloud and rain, it's the wind today, and it is windy certainly through irish sea coast, the west scotland, north of england and eastern scotland as well. gales or severe gale force gusts with met office warning is in force. for the next few hours the band of rain is still with us across parts of eastern scotland, the north of england and through wales and drifting eastwards, eventually reaching the south—east. further west, the heavy rain has cleared but heavy showers are now in play and once again windy and perhaps the odd rumble of thunder. this evening, the rain still with us in the south—east, lingering here overnight tonight and into tomorrow. elsewhere some clear skies will stop once again a few showers and perhaps longer spells of rain in the far north. temperatures under clear skies, perhaps 4—6 celsius but

further south under the cloud, holding in double digits. the wet weather with us first thing tomorrow morning, taking its time to clear from the isle of wight to parts of east anglia but it should clear. elsewhere, some sunshine, a reasonable date. a rush of showers through west wales, into parts of northern ireland through the day and they could merge to give a longer speu they could merge to give a longer spell of rain but elsewhere, some sunshine, a few showers. afternoon temperatures of 10—14 north to south and lighter wind compared with today. the rain eventually clears. tomorrow night, wet weather tending to clear. they will be some clear skies, windy for a time in the south—west but under clear skies thanks to a ridge of high pressure, it is dry and also chilly. first thing on friday morning, temperatures for some are close to freezing, certainly through parts of scotland. a cool start to friday but with a ridge of high pressure it is a bright start with plenty of crisp sunshine around to start and for much of the day it's pretty decent with sunshine and a few showers here and there. generally light wind and

temperatures once again close to the seasonal average, 10—14 north to south. and as we head to the weekend, on saturday we've got some rain pushing across the country during the day. hopefully not too wet on saturday evening for bonfire night. that's all from the bbc news at one, so it's goodbye from me, and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc�*s news teams where you are. good afternoon. now, your latest sports news. hello, i'm hugh ferris. in a tournament punctured by weather interruptions, the rain nearly put pay to one of the t20 world cup�*s biggest names today. but india survived a nail—biter to put themselves on the brink of a semi—final spot. virat kohli became the top run scorer in t20 world cup history as he made another half century in india's 184 for 6. then the rain came after seven overs of bangladesh's reply when they were ahead

of the dls par score. had the rain stayed, india would have lost, but when they resumed bangladesh had a new target of 151 off 16 overs. they fell six runs short and india are top of group b with one match to play. we obviously worked really hard for the last ten, 12 months and we have put ourselves in difficult and uncomfortable situations before. so now when we are in those situations, we know what we have done, we know how we have prepared so there is confidence within us that no matter what the situation, we will find a way and try to do the job. a five wicket defeat to the netherlands in adelaide means zimbabwe are all vut out, despite starting the super 12s stage with a famous win over pakistan. instead it was the netherlands first win of this round having already been knocked out of the competition.

max o'dowd hit 52 from 46 balls as they chased down their target of 118 with 12 balls to spare. zimbabwe need a big win over india in theirfinal group game, and for other socres to go their way to qualify for the semi finals. darren gough has been permanently appointed as yorkshire's managing director of cricket after originally taking over on an interim basis. the former england international was given the job in the wake of the racism crisis that engulfed the club following claims made by its former player azeem rafiq. since then yokrshire have been relegated from the first division of the county championship, but gough says they're "determined to get back to the top as soon as possible" gareth southgate has been criticised by human rights groups for comments he made about the up coming world cup in qatar. the england manager said workers in qatar were "united" in wanting the tournament to go ahead, claiming workers in the gulf state "love" the sport. amnesty international said

migrant labourers are more concerned with having their rights "fully protected". qatar has been strongly criticised for its human rights record. england and scotland will mark 150 years of rivalry at a special game at hampden park next year. the match — which will be played in september — will commemorate their first encounterat hamilton crescent in november 1872. that game was recognised by fifa as the inaugural international match. the game will be the 116th meeting between the sides. sports direct owner mike ashley is understood to be the preferred bidder for arena coventry limited, the company that owns the stadium where both coventry city, and until recently wasps rugby union team played. they made an application to go into administration shortly after coventry�*s home win over blackburn rovers last night, and with the arena continuing to operate as normal it's thought they'll be able to play their final two matches before the break for the world cup. dan evans and jack draper both went

out of the paris masters within a few minutes of each other this morning. draper lost to the 15th seed frances tiafoe in round two. evans had an even tougher proposition against stefanos tsitsipas who's the fifth seed in paris. the british number two lost in straight sets in the final event of the atp tour's regular season. cameron norrie plays corentin moutet tonight. that's all the sport for now. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website. sales of new petrol and diesel cars will come to an end in the uk by 2030. one country that looks likely to meet that same target five years earlier is norway. campaigners for electric vehicles there were encouraged by the �*80s pop group, a—ha, who were involved in protests and a campaign of civil disobedience more than 30 years ago, in a bid to get their government to take the issue seriously.

our reporter kevin keane, went to oslo to find out how it all happened. they were 19805 heart—throbs who, even then, had an interest in cars. # take me on # take on me.# but their passion went way beyond speed and style. as the lead singer of a—ha, morten harket was using his platform to raise awareness about the environment. and in 1989, this unlikely grouping of two pop stars, an environmentalist and an academic imported norway's first modern day electric car, a fiat panda, which they used for civil disobedience. we've brought them back together to recreate that photo. now, the question is, can we all go down on our knees? did we do that as well? and they're using a modern

day electric fiat. 33 years on, we want it exact. like that, yeah. 50, big smiles all around. they racked up fines, which they refused to pay until the car was impounded. did you feel like you were a rebel? i didn't feel i was entering into the role of a rebel, really. i realised that that's what it was, but it was just necessary. it was what we needed to do. and it made... ..just made every sense, you know? the original car was repeatedly bought back and more fines accrued, with an aim of embarrassing the government into taking electric vehicles seriously. the car was a symbolic thing, right? so, because there was only two seats and you guys drove it. and obviously, with morten there, it created also press, you know, it became visible. so it wasn't about necessarily embarrassing the government.

it was more about getting focus on this as a potential future game changer. but it went 45 kilometres, so it was not... _ it was early days. you'd have to charge for 48 hours. so, you then collectively imported the first one into norway. what was that like receiving that, having that on norway's roads? well, government tried to put all kinds of different attempts at taxing it, which we refused because it wasjust rubbish. it was a diesel tax. it took took a year to pave the road and with this little fiat panda - for the regulations in norway. but it's interesting how, now, 33 years later, we are the grown—ups and we have kids, all of us. and we have a responsibility to our own families and to our own nation and to the global community. the campaign was conceived by professor rostvig,

who'd been frustrated that electric vehicles weren't being taken seriously. today, it's a different story. the last six months, meaning 2022, 78% of all sold cars are pure electric. so, pretty soon there will be 100%. and from 2025, the government has announced they will ban the sales of all petrol and diesel cars. norway today is a different place, with electric infrastructure much more commonplace than in the uk. morten, how optimistic are you about the future? i am, with the thought that the world only looks the way it does today because we keep it that way, because the upkeep of how we do things, how we go about things. it can change very fast if we choose to change. there's little doubt norway

will meet its target of banning new fossil fuel cars in a couple of years. with electric ferries now entering service, they've already moved on to their next climate challenge, decarbonising the rest of their transport infrastructure. but it was the country's biggest musical export that helped give it that original shove. kevin keane, bbc news, oslo. �*disclosure — electric cars — ready for the charge?�* is available on bbc iplayer and on bbc one scotland tonight at 8pm. the ministry of defence has confirmed it destroyed records of personnel dismissed from the military for being gay. it said it was under a legal duty to destroy the documents. one veterans organisation said it feels to many like a cover—up.

meet lance corporaljean mcdonald. proud of her service and the uniform. dismissed by the army in 1981 for being gay. all of a sudden, you've lost yourfull career, you've lost your friends, you've lost your accommodation, your whole way of life, and it was just full of shame. thousands of service personnel were dismissed for being homosexual until the year 2000 when the ban was finally lifted. veterans have campaigned forjustice ever since. injanuary this year, the government set up an independent review to look into their treatment. jean mcdonald applied for her full—service record to share as evidence, only for the mod to reveal that all documents about the military police investigation into her had been destroyed. it's a mixture of feelings. again feeling that you're invisible. that you don't count.

that the government, they don't care about what happened. and that in some ways they're just trying to sort of... we're a bit of hidden history. the ministry of defence told us the policy followed at the time was to remove references to these former offences and investigations from service records. there was a legal duty to ensure these records were erased. with no records, what proof is there? another hurdle then for lgbt+ veterans seeking compensation for the harm they suffered. angus crawford, bbc news. well, the great and the gouda are gathering in newport today for the annual world cheese awards. competitors have gathered in the welsh city for the past two days for the event which was originally due to be held in kyiv. our reporter nicola smith

and getting her out involved specialist drain operators phillip norton went on her trail. just before sunday lunch, i was walking down this public footpath. my little terrier, tia, chased a rabbit, and i walk up and think, oh, well, where's she gone, where's she gone? then i seen that pipe and i thought, oh no. and i shot down there, put my head in the pipe and i could hear her. she wouldn't come back because the pipe's that tight she can't turn round. it was the start of a two—day ordeal for a much loved family pet, trapped almost 150 metres along a pipe underneath a field. this pipe runs from this ditch all the way past the barns. i hold my hands up to the fire brigade, they come. four appliances come to try and help me, and they've tried with everything they could, but unfortunately, the pipe was too long for the equipment they had. i went home and i was just thinking, what can i do, what can i do? with hours turning into days, his daughter's friend

suggested these guys. this is a remote control camera. we send this down into the drainage systems to look for, essentially cracks in pipes. they were looking for tia. quite tricky, to be fair. - so we got stuck at 111 metres. so then, dug up that bit of pipe, took- ithe top section of pipe out, movedl the van up to there, put the camera back in through the hole. so it was around - about 140 metres up. you canjust about see over the top that little black shape, _ which obviously we were hoping was the dog. - another company sent a digger, and the rescue began. so, then we just dug the top of the pipe off, dug down the sides of it, took a little section out, put the camera back down. it got stuck again. so we had to do the same again. but this time, when we took it off, we looked down the pipe and we could see the dog. so we dug a bit further, pulled some our pipe off, and we got her out. come on. good girl, come on. come on, lass. yeah!

yes! i was ecstatic. i couldn't believe that she was still alive and we was getting her out. yeah, when i seen him pulling her out by the back legs and she's wriggling, trying to get back in, then, yeah, it's a good feeling, isn't it? brilliant, to be honest. it weren't even my dog and it was a bit emotional! amazing feeling. oh, i can't thank these lads enough. clearway, megaplant, dan, our kid. as for tia, she's had a warm bath, and is safe and well back home. hey, you're a good girl, aren't you? back home? a lesson learnt — there's no more chasing rabbits. phillip norton, bbc news, swine, near hull. now it's time for a look at the weather forecast.
