nesta mcgregor told us why there is so much hype around the frenchman. if you could create a player with unlimited attributes it would literally be him. as you mention, seven foot five though there is some debate because he towers over people who are seven foot already playing in the lead, eight—foot wingspan. he has got it all but importantly he is a basketball unicorn because even though he is that tall he has the ball handling skills, the speed and agility of players much smaller. everton have announced that bill kenwright will remain as the club's chairman after being convinced to stay on by the club's owner farhad moshiri. kenwright has been the subject of protests from supporters, who've long called for him to leave his post. he's been on the club's board of directors for 3h years. moshiri will also join the club's board as a nonexecutive director. everton finished 17th last season, just avoiding relegation from the top flight. edin dzeko has moved from inter milan to fenerbahce on a free transfer. the striker�*s final game for the milan club was the uefa champions league final, which inter lost 1—0 to manchester city in istanbul.

4:53 pm
phones to pay for parking. if you drive a car, have a think about the last time you paid for parking with cash. according to the rac, nearly a fifth of drivers say their local authority has either scrapped parking payment machines altogether or is consulting on doing so. that would leave the only option of paying via a mobile phone. this is the move, sadly, that's come about from the fact that a lot of these machines are actually pretty old technology these days. councils face huge sums to actually upgrade them, and in many cases councils, rather than paying that money, are deciding to switch to third party mobile apps instead. and i think that is going to potentially create a bit of a problem for a certain chunk of drivers in this country who simply don't use phones or don't like using phones to pay for parking. there are a range of different parking apps that are used by councils. motorists often have to download them and are charged an additional fee to use the service. the rac says many parking operators are getting rid of older machines that process card payments by 3g mobile signals because those masts are being switched off. there are concerns, though,
4:54 pm
that requiring drivers to use a mobile app or call a phone number is particularly difficult for some elderly or vulnerable people, putting them at risk of being fined for nonpayment. i don't often use car parks. this is the only one i use, so if i'm having now to start in different car parks i go to, i'm not au fait with it, so it's a little bit worrying that i've got to start using apps now. i wouldn't know how to start to download the app, - so i would probablyjust go home. i've just used the app, and it's not recognised the site of 17788, so i'm forced to have to go and find another car park. in april, the communities secretary, michael gove, wrote to councils expressing concern about drivers being digitally excluded through a lack of alternative payment methods. the local government association says councils are working with governments and parking operators to streamline the number of apps needed to make payments, to make the process as simple

as possible for drivers. 0livia hutchinson, bbc news. good afternoon. plenty going on for the weather over the next few days. we've got a change in the story as we speak. we've got rain around it this morning, not for all of us. this was glasgow earlier on. some heavier bursts of rain, but already it's starting to fragment as it pushes its way steadily eastwards. but we've got rain into parts of north—west england and wales. the best of the sunshine further south and east, so not a bad morning so far across surrey, as you can see. it looks likely that with the cloud and the rain, it'll be just a little bit fresher for many of us. top temperatures generally around 16 to 22 celsius, but in the sunshine, still pretty warm with it, 26 to 27 celsius. that's just nudging into 80 fahrenheit. now, as we go through this evening, still going to see some showery outbreaks of rain for a time drifting its way eastwards. this south—westerly flow
4:56 pm
feeding in a lot of cloud. it'll be misty and murky, but it's also going to drag with it more humid air, so it will be a mild night, an uncomfortable night for getting a good night's sleep, 15 or 16 degrees. so a warm start to saturday morning leading into a pretty warm and increasingly humid day as well. it will be cloudy, misty and damp at times along west—facing coasts. a few more organised showers into the north—west of scotland, but there'll also be some sunny spells for many and it will feel pretty warm generally across the country. we're looking at 17 to 25 celsius in scotland and northern ireland. highest values — 29, possibly 30 not out of the question somewhere across southern and eastern england. now the high pressure just drifts off into the near continent, but we still keep this southerly flow, but a frontal system pushing in from the west, so on sunday, a real contrast to the story, best of the sunshine, and still pretty hot with it, south and east. but as this front moves in into that very warm and humid air, it's going to trigger some sharp, intense thundery downpours. now the high pressure just drifts off into the near continent, but we still keep this southerly flow, but a frontal system pushing in from the west, so on sunday, a real contrast to the story, best of the sunshine, and still pretty hot with it, south and east.

but as this front moves in into that very warm and humid air, it's going to trigger some sharp, intense thundery downpours. noticeably fresher behind it, but hot and humid ahead of it with highs of 30 celsius. now, as that rain clears away through sunday evening into monday, that fresher air will start to take over. and areas of low pressure look likely to start to move in from the north and west, so a change into next week. yes, it will be a little bit fresher in comparison to of late and there'll be showers or longer spells of rain at times. a welcome news for the gardens.
