paper's publisher denies using unlawful means to gather information about the prince. 0ur media editor katie razzall was in court. the interest in this story shows no sign of waning. for the second day world's media gathered in a cul—de—sac in central london waiting for the high court's star witness. prince harry arrived here for another bout of cross—examination. the mirror group is determined to show he is wrong to claim that articles about him were based on unlawful information gathering. mgn's barrister told him there was not a single item of evidence in these articles to show phone hacking and that prince harry's claims were pure speculation. the prince says this one, about a secret dinner he had with the late tv presenter caroline flack at the close�*s house was based on home phone hacking as he and his friend had out voicemails for each other and take a sided game from photo agency. this one about his then girlfriend chelsy davy�*s period at the visit to a lap dancing club

was also based on hacking, prince harry says and mgn says it was another paper is the day before. when he split from chelsy there was this headline. prince harry told the court he was likely to exchange voicemails about the difficulties in their relationship and said, i now find this very suspicious. mgn says the story was in the news of the world before. prince harry blames the tabloids for his break—up with chelsy davy. today he told the court he had once found a tracking device on her car. put 30 claims by a private investigator. for my whole life, he said, the press have misled me and covered up the wrongdoing. andrew green for the mirror group asked him, would you be relieved or disappointed if the court decided he hadn't been hacked by mgn? prince harry said, phone hacking was on an industrial scale across three of the papers at the time and that is beyond doubt. yes, i would feel some injustice. andrea green continued, so you want to have been phone hacked? prince harry responded, no one wants to have been phone hacked, my lord. at the end of his evidence

is barrister asked prince harry the toe going through it all had taken. the prince appeared to fight back tears. it is a lot, he said in a cracked voice. he stayed in court to hearjane carr, a former royal reporter who court insisted must give evidence. the byline appears almost a third of the article is about prince harry being examined by the court. she commissioned private investigators to help with stories but she said she had never asked anybody to do anything unlawful. prince harry spent around eight hours in the witness box. he will be leaving here probably giving relieved having kept his cool and focus in the face of some tough questioning. there will be relieved also from his estranged family. because there was nothing in his testimony that would be embarrassing to the royals. prince harry cosmic focus here solely is the tabloid press. an effort he said to an end to the abuse and intrusion of and his wife. prince harry was more

confident today, making his points more forcefully, but his time here now is done. so what happens next? this case will go on for another couple of weeks or so, we will hear from three other people suing mirror group newspapers, and after that the judge will have to decide on the balance of probabilities whether they have proved their case and we will find out later this year. katie razzall, thank you. 0ur royal correspondent, daniela relph, is here. it will was a moment of history, quite a moment for prince harry and the royalfamily, he quite a moment for prince harry and the royal family, he was determined to do it. he the royal family, he was determined to do it. . , the royal family, he was determined to do it. ,., , to do it. he was. it is always fascinating when _ to do it. he was. it is always fascinating when you - to do it. he was. it is always fascinating when you see - to do it. he was. it is always fascinating when you see a l fascinating when you see a well—known figure in a courtroom in a witness box being cross—examined. that is always really charged and creates a great deal of interest. when you throw in a member of the royalfamily as well you when you throw in a member of the royal family as well you get to extra level of drama and what we heard harry cosmic testimony was a real sense of how he felt from his perspective as a young royal. the paranoia, the pressure, the scrutiny as he experienced it. while all that was going on in court, his family

here in the uk, the royalfamily were carrying on as usual without any comment. in fact his father the king has been out of the country this week on a private visit to romania but as katie said in her report there i think they will probably be relieved at what was said in court because harry didn't drop any of the bombshells or make any of the direct criticism of his family that he did in his 0prah family that he did in his oprah winfrey interview or in his book, and said he absolutely reinforced his position, his mission to challenge the way the british media has operated. challenge the way the british media has operated-— has operated. daniela relph, thank ou. floodwaters are still rising in the ukrainian city of kherson after a major dam was breached by an explosion yesterday. water is surging down the dnipro river, which divides russian and ukrainian—controlled terrority. tens of thousands of people have been stranded and whole neighbourhoods submerged. officials say there could be a catastrophic impact on agriculture, worsening global food shortages. while the ukrainian government tries

to deal with the dam bridge, in other parts of the country there are suggestions that some ukrainian troops are advancing in the east. we will hear from our correspondent quentin somerville in a moment. he is in zaporizhzhia. 0ur ukraine correspondent james waterhouse reports from kherson. there are very few ways to get around kherson now. it takes a lot for people here to be forced to leave, but for pockets of the city that moment has come. boats wave through the use of magistrates. some have grabbed what they can. for—year—old maria made it out with her mum katarina.

as well as the boast, an ultimatum was issued to the dozens, maybe even hundreds of organisations affected. "get in touch with us to discuss a ransom payment or we will publish your data online." the bbc, boots, aer lingus and british airways are just some of the organisations we know about. the scale of this mass hack has really shocked the cyber world. it all started with a relatively obscure but popular piece of corporate software called moveit. the clop hackers managed to find a unique way into the system and that gave them access to all the companies that use moveit, for example, the uk payroll provider zellis. that allowed them to download some of the data of their customers, including the bbc and british airways. they are often dubbed supply chain attacks and what that essentially means, instead of targeting an organisation directly, they target a piece of software and

organisation users, so in this case they will use file transfer software that a bunch of companies use and this really kind of opens the gate a little bit. you use this as your initial entry point, it is your back door, if you like. clop has been a persistent cyber threat for years. an international police operation in 2021 saw arrests in ukraine of alleged members of the gang but with the leaders of the crew thought to be based in russia, clop has continued to make millions extorting organisations around the world. their latest victims are faced with a dilemma of paying the ransom or not. the advice is don't, as it fuels their criminal enterprise and they might sell the hacked data online anyway in secret. for staff whose national insurance numbers or even bank details are potentially in the hands of hackers, it is a concerning time. but these criminals are less interested in going after individuals, when organisations could pay them more, so the advice is to not panic but be vigilant of any suspicious activity or e—mails. joe tidy, bbc news.

our top story this evening... prints harry accuses me group newspapers of industrial scale phone hacking at the end of two days in the witness box at the high court —— prince harry. and still to come, we are live in prague as west ham seek theirfirst trophy coming up on bbc news... a qualified welcome from rory mcilroy to golf�*s shock merger. a long—time outspoken critic of the sport's breakaway competition admits the deal will secure its financial future and be good for the game of golf.

the nhs in england is now considering giving people access to weight loss injections through their gp. for the moment it's only a pilot scheme. our medical editor, fergus walsh, is here with the details. the weekly weight loss jab wegovy, was approved earlier this year in england. the drug suppresses appetite by mimicking a hormone released after eating so making you feel full. in trials, obese patients lost around 15% of their body weight. the initial plan was for it to be available only via specialist weight loss clinics which would limit it to 35,000 people a year. this two—year £14 million gp scheme will add several thousand patients to that, but, if successful, could open it up to many more. there is no doubt about the scale of

the problem. over 12 million adults in england are obese, with a body mass index of at least 30. obesity is estimated to cost the nhs around £6.5 billion a year, so the hope will be it could reduce pressure on hospitals. sarah from north yorkshire says she's tried every diet going but continues to struggle with her weight and has a bmi of over a0. she believes wegovy could make the difference. i want to live in a smaller body and i want to be able to do that so i can spend time with my daughter. i have a four—year—old daughter and i want to be able to active with her and live for as long as i possibly can to see her grow up so for me, something like this which allows me to become a healthier version of myself is crucial, you know, and exciting. like all medicines, wegovy can have side effects — the most common include nausea, diarrhoea, stomach pain, and bloating. and when patients come off the drug, most start piling on the pounds again. of course this doesn't deal with some underlying problems behind obesity — poor diet, the promotion

and availability ofjunk food, and lack of physical activity. for now there are no stocks of wegovy in the uk and all the manufacturer could tell me is that it will be available as soon as possible. fergus, thank you. police in scotland are adverse to getting the death of a 14—year—old boy who died at a school in west lothian. emergency services were called yesterday the boy has not been named but was taken to hospital but died a short time later. the school said it was an isolated incident. has been hearing how a place was shot in south london put the jury was shown cctv of the moment sajid matt ratana were shot in the chest. louis de zoysa admits

terminal three and also some staff who check other staff through security lanes. there were some previous strikes in the past couple of months but this time the action is more sustained. there are more workers involved. and also... it will last longer. this dispute is over pay. unite has rejected a 10% pay rise and several rounds of talks and the offer of a lump sum on top have not been enough to resolve the dispute so far. unite says the dispute so far. unite says the dispute could even escalate further. heathrow says it will keep on talking and do everything it can to minimise the impact of any strike action. . ~' ,, minimise the impact of any strike action. ., ~ , minimise the impact of any strike action. ., ~ action. thank you. football news and real madrid — action. thank you. football news and real madrid have _ action. thank you. football news and real madrid have agreed _ action. thank you. football news and real madrid have agreed a _ action. thank you. football news and real madrid have agreed a deal- action. thank you. football news and real madrid have agreed a deal with | real madrid have agreed a deal with borussia dortmund to sign england midfielderjude bellingham for around £88 million. the 19—year—old, who had been linked with several

premier league clubs, was one of england's top performers at the world cup last year and it is understood he wants to move and will have a medical in the next few days. a big moment for west ham tonight — they have not won a single trophy for more than a0 years. tonight that could finally change as they take on the italian side fiorentina in the europa conference league final in prague. andy swiss has been soaking up the nerves and excitement. # i'm forever blowing bubbles... hoping for history. west ham fans in fine voice as they descended on prague in their thousands. after decades without a trophy, could this finally be their night? irons! we are going to win. it's not if, they are going to win, the boys will do it. my missus said to me when she dropped me off at the airport, i'm going to cry at some point this weekend and i think i will do if we win. i think i will probably cry if we lose but it would be unbelievable.

it has been some wait. you have to go back to 1980 for the hammers' last major trophy, the fa cup, and their last major european trophy, well, that was in 1955 when bobby moore led them to triumph. winners of the european cup winners' cup. - steve was there that day, some 58 years ago. how old were you? 13, 1a, something like that. i was enjoying it with my father and things like that and i'm still enjoying it now with my son so it's just great. west ham have struggled in the premier league this season, finishing just 1ath, but in europe they have looked a different team. their italian opponents, fiorentina, are also here in bullish mood but with thousands of fans coming without tickets, there is a large police presence for what is one of european football's biggest nights. security has been a concern for this

game here in prague put the fortuna arena is not a big stadium for a majorfinal, only holding 20,000, so a lot of fans have come to prague without tickets and there has already been one incident in the city centre. police say a group of west ham fans were attacked by a group of italian supporters in a bar and they say that three people were injured as a result public reports of one fan having a large cut on his head. everyone will now be hoping it is at the football that makes the headlines kick off at 8pm. thank you. a piece of carved oak uncovered by chance in berkshire has been found to be more than 6,000 years old. it's the oldest wood ever discovered in britain and was found preserved in a layer of peat when a retired surgeon was having a workshop built in his garden. historic england says the carving was made 2,000 years before stonehenge was built.

it will eventually go on display at the west berkshire museum in newbury. it was a low—budget, feel—good comedy about a group of former steel workers who decided to make a bit of money by stripping off. but the full monty went on to become a global hit, making more than £200 million. 26 years later, the stars are back for a tv series, about what happened after that revealing night in 1997. david sillito has been to meet them. # you can leave your hat on... the full monty — a little low—budget film about six blokes who needed to make a bit of extra cash and were convinced this was a way of doing it. it became a massive hit. and now, after more than 25 years, the gang are back together. i know you lot from somewhere. strippers! are you still doing it? what do you think?

i was so delighted to be back, working with wee steve and mark and paul and all the gang. the full monty, you know, it's followed me around through my entire career like a big, warm shadow, you know? and there's a bond between us guys through that, you know. 0nly we understand what that was about. # looking for some hot stuff, baby, this evenin'... in the originalfilm, the story was about unemployment and what it did to people. this is thejob centre from 1997, and it's still there today, but, as you can see, the city around it has been transformed. but the new series is all about the problems of britain in 2023. and this is probably the most important of all of the locations because this is, of course, where they did the full monty. however, as you can see, it's seen better days. and for peter price, who's represented this area for 50

years, the full monty captures something important. to be fair, it did present a worse light than what it was, but i think it needed to exaggerate it to get the story. i mean, a lot of people took offence, but i didn't because i saw the poverty that existed in certain quarters. 26 years have gone by since then. and now, how different? it's been a lot better, don't get me wrong, but it's going back that way, i'm afraid. and finally, the most important question. do you keep your clothes on this time? no—one wants to see that, do they? it's not a horror film. no. david sillito, bbc news, sheffield. brilliant, a trip down memory lane. time for a look at the weather. here's sarah keith—lucas. is going to be worn this weekend, first warning of the year?- first warning of the year? that's ri . ht, first warning of the year? that's riaht, a first warning of the year? that's right. a heat— first warning of the year? that's right, a heat warning _ first warning of the year? that's right, a heat warning issued -
