6:33 pm
they were greeted by a women's world record crowd, fans old — and new — turning out in the sunshine. after a slow start, england needed a spark, and it came in the form of abby dow. commentator: one chance, one shot - they score. - if that one was all pace, then england's next try was all power. packer bulldozing her way to the line. she cannot be stopped! and neither could england. a five—try haul at the break left france broken and the game almost out of sight. the half—time entertainment act, sugababes, only adding to the festival feel. after the restart, france pushed the button and rallied — in a big way, finally showing up on the big stage. and they almost pulled off an incredible comeback... france will have the final say in this match. ..but this was england's party. the 2023 six nations grand slam champions!
6:34 pm
some questioned whether england's women were ready to have a stand—alone game at this iconic ground. but this crowd, this atmosphere, proves this is where they belong. jo currie, bbc news, twickenham. england thankful that there wasn't anymore time to play, we'll hear from some of the players in a moment, but first here's the head coach simon middleton. after eight years in charge, that was his last match almost indescribable, what a day with the crowd and everything. i mean, wejust had to with the crowd and everything. i mean, we just had to work so hard for it, didn't we? we got there in the end. you've got mixed emotions about everything, i am so proud of how they have performed and thrilled about winning. now i'm thinking, maybe i should not have left.

6:36 pm
the france we know. i believe france thought they had lost it when the try was scored stop france had been attacking the ten solid minutes, really close, got turned over, got really close, got turned over, got really close, got turned over, got really close, turned over. england made a breakaway try in the heads down. they did not manage to come back until half—time. they have had a word with themselves and said this is not us. they have bet on an amazing display, which england really struggled with. they nearly came back to win it. it really struggled with. they nearly came back to win it.— came back to win it. it was a wonderful— came back to win it. it was a wonderful comeback, - came back to win it. it was a l wonderful comeback, england came back to win it. it was a - wonderful comeback, england won came back to win it. it was a _ wonderful comeback, england won on, five straight titles in a row, four of them have been grand slams, including today. but that into context for me. the consistency you have to have in the performance is huge. you have one slip—up and you lose, you certainly do not get it. for them to consistently turn up and get the wins, it is incredible. i hate to bring out come off the back of the world cup disappointment, 58,000 people, france on form, generally, they absorb so much pressure, they turned it around.—

6:38 pm
gutted about the world cup because those are the ones that we want. i've lost one and 11, it feels so much better winning it. there will be some people that are chasing that the 2025 who are playing. —— i have lost one and i have also won one. now he replaces him is the big decision. wales have finished third in the six nations table. they beat italy 36—10 in parma. the welsh won three of theirfive matches in this years championship. they secured the bonus point shortly before the full—time arc. the final match in this year's six nations is in edinburgh. scotland taking on ireland. the scots have only one win and can finish no higher than fourth. they should sign off with a win against the irish, they have lost all four of their matches, scoring just 15 points in total.
6:39 pm
time to bring you up to date with the football headlines. there were just three games in the premier league today but no shortage of goals, there were seven at selhurst park. crystal palace should be safe now after beating west ham 4—3. but the hammers are still in trouble just five points above the relegation zone. ben croucher reports. when you support a team in the bottom half of the premier league, you need patience. a ticket problem meant thousands of crystal palace fans couldn't get in on time against west ham. after kick off was delayed, many may have wished they'd stayed outside. nine minutes for thomas soucek to put west ham ahead. fewer than five for the reply. jordan ayew spotting the gap. wilfried zaha found a bigger one at the back post to put roy hodgson's side ahead. west ham were caught on their heels asjeffrey schlupp made it three and we hadn't even played half an hour. we hadn't seen the end of the scoring. michael antonio. first half done. time for a breather. put the feet up. maybe keep the hands down though.
6:40 pm
eberechi eze felt the contact. west ham felt the full effects. not for long. another west ham corner though. another goal. nayef aguerd atoning for his error at the other end. but a game that had nearly everything — an equaliser proved elusive. after a season of nervousness — the win takes palace 11 clear of the relegation zone. but hey — good things come to those who wait — for the neutrals and the home team at least. ben croucher, bbc news. so palace have reached the magic a0 point mark that roy hodgson had been targeting, it's four wins out of six since he returned to the club to hold the reins. from our point of view, a wonderful first half, i thought we played well. the second goalfrom first half, i thought we played well. the second goal from the set play dampened it a little bit but only— one i think we played well and did all the things we hoped we could do. our quality players were showing all their quality and all of their attacking flair. 0f all their quality and all of their attacking flair. of course, credit to west ham to keep coming back into
6:41 pm
the game with two goal margins was a really fine from that point of view given the programme they have had. nottingham forest were less than ten minutes away from a precious three points at brentford. but they lost 2—1. josh da silva scored brentford's winner in the 94th minute that's after ivan toney had equalised in the 82nd. forest had taken the lead on the stroke of half—time through danilo. and off the back of their midweek win over brighton they were looking to pull further clear of the bottom three, but they remain one point above the relegation zone and all the sides below them have played a game less. brighton responded well to that defeat on wednesday night with a 6—0 thrashing of wolves, they were four up inside half an hour withjulen lopetegui's side all at sea. pascal gross, danny welbeck and deniz undav all scoring twice for the seagulls, that win puts them just two points wolves are thirteenth.
6:42 pm
some more football headlines. wigan have been relegated from the championship after conceding a 93rd minute equaliser at reading. that keeps reading alive for now, but they are odds—on to go down with wigan and blackpool. that reading point means that cardiff stay up they weren't even playing today, queen park rangers also stay up after a good win at stoke coventry beat birmingham and now need just a point from their final game to secure a play—off place. championship side inverness caledonian thistle are through to the scottish cup final after beating falkirk 3—0 at hampden park.
6:43 pm
this was a repeat of the 2015 final which inverness also won and they were rarely threatened by the league one side. billy mackay scored in each half and man of the match dan mackay added the other goal at hampden park. they will will play the either rangers or celtic who play their semifinal tomorrow. you go one up, then two up, then go up you go one up, then two up, then go up and win three, four, five — zero, the boys was solid. it not play out the boys was solid. it not play out the way i thought it would be. i did not feel comfortable about 20 minutes to go. couple of womens�* super league matches with big implications for the relegation scrap. a huge result for leicester, they beat liverpool 4—0 to move off the bottom of table, two points above reading. tottenham take on brighton with both sides bidding to stay out of trouble as well — second half under way at the tottenham hotspur stadium 2—1. let's have a quick look at some of the other stories making the headlines today. adam yates became the third british
6:44 pm
rider in four days to win a stage at the tour de romandie in switzerland. his solo victory saw him take the overall lead with an advantage of 19 seconds heading into tomorrow's final run to geneva. british number two dan evans is out of the madrid 0pen after losing to spain's bernabe zapata miralles. the world number 42, playing in front of his home crowd, won in staright sets. brad binder won a sprint race for the second time in this motogp season. the south african stunned his ktm team mate jack miller with an audacious overtake on the penultimate lap to take victory at the spanish grand prix. red bull's sergio perez has won the first sprint race of the formula one season. it won't put the mexican on pole for tomorrow's azerbaijan grand prix, charles leclerc secured that in qualifying yesterday, but perez has cut the gap to championship leader max verstappen, who got quite hot under the collar in baku, as nick parrott reports.
6:45 pm
f1 change the sprint race to make them more aggressive. george russell was determined to snatch third place from the stubborn on the third lap, much at the dutchman's discuss. i do not know why — much at the dutchman's discuss. i do not know why he _ much at the dutchman's discuss. i if not know why he needs to take so much risk on lap one, create a whole, we all have cold tyres, it is easy to lock up. it is a beautiful way of explaining, it locked up, look at the on board. it does not make sense. i was quite surprised, i thought he was coming over to say good battle. from my side, iwas thought he was coming over to say good battle. from my side, i was on the inside, the position was lost from him and i was confused he was trying to hold it on the outside. ever since we were eight years old and go—karting, if you are the corner— and go—karting, if you are the corner on_ and go—karting, if you are the corner on the apex, it is yours. i am here — corner on the apex, it is yours. i am here to _ corner on the apex, it is yours. i am here to fight, i am here to win, i'm not— am here to fight, i am here to win, i'm hotiust— am here to fight, i am here to win, i'm notjust going to wait and buy because — i'm notjust going to wait and buy because he — i'm notjust going to wait and buy because he has maxed tap in. the situation was _ because he has maxed tap in. iie: situation was come because he has maxed tap in. the: situation was come the because he has maxed tap in. i“i9: situation was come the bit because he has maxed tap in. i“i9 situation was come the bit when the safety car came out for a bit. 0n
6:46 pm
the restart, max was quick to retake his position. he could not improve upon it though. ahead of him, sergio perez got the best of charles leclerc. there will be little chance of another flare—up between max and russell tomorrow though with the briton starting the grand prix from 11th and the world champion from back in. rugby league england's men and women have been playing a double header against france in warrington and they are both ceelbrating huge wins. adam wild watched both matches. a tri— fest for the crowd. you can see we were right in the busiest part of the stadium. we are getting in the way of some of the
6:47 pm
players signing autographs and taking photographs. it is very much the start of england's post—world cup iraq, context for this match. this double header this afternoon, very much a sense of a fresh start moving forward after those terribly disappointing semifinal defeats at the men and women. certainly reflected in the selection, just four of his starting 17 have actually made a test match for england before, the lack of experience in their side. still, even with that, the lack of expense at the youth, they were far too much for the french side this afternoon. —— lack of experience. running in six tries in the first half, one of those going to the new skipper, george williams. very popular indeed. not only because he is the new captain but of course he is a warrington player as well. he played magnificently. in the second half he went on to complete his hat—trick,
6:48 pm
as did ash handley. it was a comprehensive performance from the men. an identical scoreline for the women, they went first, it is similar story in them as well, where they are at as well going forward? yeah, look, it's a really exciting time for women's rugby league, they had the had of losing in the semifinal of their own world cup. they took on the french as well this afternoon, a little earlier, lee had that she was the standout performer for the english side —— leah burke. there was a try as well in the second half of holly, she really is one of the big superstars of the women's game, you will have seen her on sports day on thursday night speaking to us. she has become one of the first english players to head over to australia to play in their
6:49 pm
professional league. she's got a magnificent try in the second half. really comprehensive for england. just after the end of the game, i caught up with leah he scored four tries this afternoon. we are just building tries this afternoon. we arejust building on tries this afternoon. we are just building on the momentum, i think we were disappointed not getting into the final of— disappointed not getting into the final of the world cup, we did take away— final of the world cup, we did take away confidence that we are on the same _ away confidence that we are on the same leveb — away confidence that we are on the same level. we just carried that on entered _ same level. we just carried that on entered this year and kept building on that— entered this year and kept building on that to — entered this year and kept building on that to get better for the next world _ on that to get better for the next world cup. scorelines aside, as quirky as world cup. — scorelines aside, as quirky as they both are, very comfortable victories, both coaches will have had a look at some of these new players, looking ahead to the future. france on the metric of which the england sides will measure themselves, they will measure themselves, they will measure themselves that against the southern hemisphere sides, the man will take on that challenge a little later in the autumn when they take on tonga in a three match series.—

of the jump racing season, there was an extraordinary double for kitty's light who won the day's big handicap chase at sandown — only a week after winning the scottish national. this year's jump trainer's title goes to paul nicholls and the top jockey is brian hughes. over the coming six days, nottingham will host the world championship for six teams in division one — it's the biggest tournament staged in the uk for generations. home ice might give great britain the edge. the stage is set for the biggest clashes on ice to be witnessed in the uk in a generation — bone—crunching smashes, a lightning—fast blur of bodies, sticks and pucks. six nations battle for promotion to the top division and a chance to rejoin the world's elite teams, and for great britain, it's a road to redemption. they ended decades in the wilderness in 2018 and spent three seasons in the top flight before relegation last year. but now, in front of their home fans here on the ice in nottingham this week, they have this chance
6:54 pm
to bounce straight back. once again they are stretching every muscle in the face of adversity. there's a fire and hunger in us all to get back up there and keep proving that uk hockey is a good place to be. archive: and great britain strike first. l lwe're not known as a hockey—playing| country, but we know we can compete against these teams if we're playing at a top level — - that we can come back- and compete with the big boys. a slight chance for gb — they score! if we do it on our home ice and have the chance to come back and play canada, usa, finland, that is huge. one of the most thrilling games in the world. - not only steel—shod, but well—padded. - great britain can draw on a golden history — 0lympic ice hockey champions in 1936, when the sport was thrust into the national spotlight. sometimes this happens. where is the goal—minder? nowadays, gb find themselves 18th in the world.
6:55 pm
but with a chance to rise again. when you're so close to the action and hear the crack of the pucks, you realise how adrenaline—filled and exciting this sport can be. the big problem the sport has, though, is getting enough time on the limited number of ice ranks in the country to get enough new youngsters coming along to give the sport a go, especially with all the other activities on offer to them now. but this world championship is a real opportunity to leave a legacy. now back in the limelight, clubs up and down the country have been running initiatives to get newcomers into the sport, nottingham school pupils here joining the gb team for a first taste on the ice. greatjob, connie! it's really cool, and watching the hockey team play- was really exciting. it's my first time, and it's lots of fun actually. how many times have you fell over? 26 now. you come one time just to give it a go and you get hooked. -
6:56 pm
it's so fast—paced, _ and everything is happening, obviously with the contact and the speed of it, - and it's such a family—friendly environment to be in as well. | people just get hooked, and they love it. - looking to the future, then, but also celebrating the past. for britain's most capped player and captain, jonathan phillips, it's a fitting way to call time on his career, and his greatest gift would be promotion in his final match this week. that's the kind of fairy tale ending, is going for promotion here. having been involved for such a long time, it will be emotional. there's something that — what a great chance and opportunity. this is a golden chance for a new generation, which could be a springboard for british ice hockey for generations to come. and they start their campaign in the next half hour in nottingham against
6:57 pm
south korea. we will be back with another update in half an hour. see you then. hello. for many parts of the uk, spring warmth arrived just in time for the bank holiday weekend, but that wasn't the case everywhere. there were parts of north east england and scotland that got stuck with a lot of clouds, some spots of rain and a rather chilly feel. and even where the sun did shine, some big shower clouds developed. and through the rest of the weekend, we will continue to see some of those heavy showers, but also some spells of warm sunshine. this is the satellite picture from earlier on. you can see that shield of cloud that's sat across parts of north—east england and scotland and then more cloud gathering out in the atlantic and as that feeds its way eastwards, as we head through the nights, it will bring a band of showers
6:58 pm
across many parts of the uk. ahead of that, there could well be some areas of mist and fog. a little bit chilly across parts of east anglia, maybe down to three or four degrees. also quite cold in shetland too for lerwick, but out west, ten for belfast, so a mild starts to sunday. so through the day tomorrow we will see this band of cloud and showery rain pushing its way eastwards. some more persistent rain is likely to develop for a time across the northern isles, and then through the afternoon the skies will brighten in northern ireland, we'll see some spells of sunshine, but also a scattering of heavy and probably thundery showers. staying mostly dry across east anglia and the south—eastern here, the highest temperatures up to 18 or 19 degrees, but a bit less chilly than it was today in parts of north—east england and scotland. now, as we head on into bank holiday monday, we will see a couple of different weather systems. this one bringing some showers early on into eastern parts of england. there's also a weak cold front up towards the north of scotland, that will sink southwards, bringing a bit of patchy rain to south—east scotland and north—east england and a northerly wind following behind, so a slightly chillier feel.
