rescue the five people on board. joining me for the next hour on the panel is a former hillary clinton campaign manager in the repeater, former uk representative to nato. he will speak to them in a moment. presidentjoe biden's sun hunter biden has agreed to plead guilty to illegally owning a gun while being a drug user. two charges, ending a long—running justice department investigation. meanwhile, donald trump its new court date in the calendar, august the iath is the date, the former president has been indicted on charges of retaining classified government records and obstructing justice, the special counsel has promised a speedy trial. we look at the soaring costs of mortgages and rent here in the uk as inflation pushes prices higher and higher. we start with a huge surge, the race to say five people were on board a submersible which is gone missing in the north atlantic close

to the wreck of the titanic. the coastguard is that the vessel may only have a8 hours of breathable air left in for the five people who are on board. the ships and planes of scouring the ocean around 700 km off the coast of newfoundland near canada it's as large as the us state of connecticut. officials say an underwater search vessel has been launched in the titanic would sink in 1912 is nearly a000 metres below the surface. all contact was lost with the sub about an hour and a5 minutes into its dive. our correspondent has this report on the daunting task now facing the rescuers. these are the last known photos of the titan submersible, just before it began its descent. an hour and a5 minutes later, contact was lost. it

is a five—man capsule that people crawl into and this was filmed by the bbc last year, it shows people being bolted and from the outside. the sub then plunges into the ocean depths. those on board are believed to be the british billionaire parting, british businessman and his sun, french explorer paul and this man, the chief executive of the expedition company ocean gate stabile essentially a sony playstation style controller. serious and the documentary showing how the vessel was operated by a games counsel. all construction pipes were used for ballast. this is an experimental— pipes were used for ballast. this is an experimental sob, _ pipes were used for ballast. this is an experimental sob, people - pipes were used for ballast. this is an experimental sob, people are i an experimental sob, people are informed and it's very dangerous down there. informed and it's very dangerous down there-— informed and it's very dangerous down there. questions about the safe of down there. questions about the safety of the _ down there. questions about the safety of the supper _ down there. questions about the safety of the supper that - down there. questions about the l safety of the supper that inevitably being raised but for now, the

told us during that last press conference that they do not have the capabilities to conduct this research rescue and search mission of its own and that is why we are seeing a gathering income of these international partners reaching out to canadian officials, a french on its way and turning in international operation here.— its way and turning in international operation here. everything suggests it takes time — operation here. everything suggests it takes time but _ operation here. everything suggests it takes time but the _ operation here. everything suggests it takes time but the one _ operation here. everything suggests it takes time but the one thing - operation here. everything suggests it takes time but the one thing thatl it takes time but the one thing that needs five people on board this vessel do not have his time. thea;r needs five people on board this vessel do not have his time. they do not have much _ vessel do not have his time. they do not have much time _ vessel do not have his time. they do not have much time left, _ vessel do not have his time. they do not have much time left, we - vessel do not have his time. they do not have much time left, we note i not have much time left, we note this is a vessel that about 96 hours of air on it when it began its descent on sunday morning and we are now more than two days beyond that. this is a countdown but no one wants to see richard's this is a countdown but no one wants to see richards and for times of the essence and as i mentioned, given that distance from the coast, its remote area does take time for this kind of equipment and expertise of what is needed to conduct this

area and so there is an element of trying to rush and trying to make sure that these equipment another can type you are going to be given new information on the game changing and a fit of equipment in the us navy single flyaway deep ocean salvage system can be deployed reaching canada and making it an area west of the capabilities of retrieving lost vessels or aircraft from the bottom of the ocean and that was designed to do the hope is something that potentially, if they are able to locate this submersible, could bring it up from the bottom of the ocean. ladle could bring it up from the bottom of the ocean. ~ ~ ., ~ , , , ., the ocean. we know keep us updated. joinin: us the ocean. we know keep us updated. joining us from _ the ocean. we know keep us updated. joining us from boston. _ the ocean. we know keep us updated. joining us from boston. let's - the ocean. we know keep us updated. joining us from boston. let's talk - joining us from boston. let's talk to the panel, lord peter, the challenge here is that international operation that carl was outlining

prosecutors as to how this case is being handled, but look, it makes you have something like this, we have a family member of a sitting president facing charges by that president's justice president facing charges by that president'sjustice department, there will always be some number of people saying there's a conflict of interest and it shouldn't happen like this. particularly since we had a pretty aggressive case against donald trump just a few weeks ago. interesting though, there isn't anything that is because the investigation was started by the lawyer appointed by donald trump in the same rate from the outset that this was a partisan case stop electing bells a smart move from prison biden's but have to have some degree of arm's—length to say that this was a degree of arm's-length to say that this wa . . , degree of arm's-length to say that thiswa. , degree of arm's-length to say that this wa . . , . , ,, this was a chump appointed us attorney and — this was a chump appointed us attorney and therefore, - this was a chump appointed us attorney and therefore, he - this was a chump appointed usj attorney and therefore, he was this was a chump appointed us - attorney and therefore, he was given the —— trump appointed, it's not the same as a special counsel which we have not had a single independent counsel, we have had special

and indeed sunny weather to come in the forecast as we head through the rest of the week for most of us, but it's been rather unsettled so far today. heavy rain in central southern england earlier this morning and some thunderstorms breaking out. lovely weather watcher picture here from north uist in the western isles. there could be some more heavy, thundery showers breaking out for many of us as we head through the rest of today. the context on bbc news. like the there are localised weather warnings in place, but also some sunny spells, too, and it will still be feeling warm. now, earlier on, we saw this feature just move its way northwards, currently across northeastern areas of england and northeastern scotland too, where it's likely to linger on for much of the rest of the day, eventually pulling out into the north sea. watch out for some thunderstorms across western scotland and northern ireland. also possibly some heavy, thundery showers across southwest england and south wales forming in lines. but further east, it's largely dry — temperatures here peaking in the mid 205 in celsius. now, overnight tonight, the thunderstorms are likely to rumble on, i think, across western scotland and northern ireland, but for most, they will fade away where we see them to leave us with a dry night, feeling slightly fresher. a little more comfortable for sleeping, but still warm into tomorrow morning with some areas of mist, especially in the south. so, on wednesday, then,

there'll still be some showers forming in lines, perhaps for southwest england and for wales. and across much of scotland, we could see some more thunderstorms break out, frequent lightning across eastern scotland, maybe some thunderstorms across northern ireland, too. temperatures coming up slightly — towards the east, it should stay largely dry, and it will still feel warm here, 23—25 celsius. and then high pressure starts to build in from the southwest as we head through the middle of the week, quite firmly established by the time we get to the weekend. but on thursday, there'll still be a few showers around. the area's more stable, so the showers shouldn't be as heavy as they've been in recent days, and there'll be some sunny spells, too. temperatures for most will peak in the low 205 in celsius, starting to rise, but maybe 26—27 celsius in southeast england and east anglia. that high pressure becomes quite

firmly established across the south of the uk as we head through the weekend. temperatures will be rising, the humidity levels, too. weather fronts pushing into the north and the west.
