starting trailing the moment. also starting todayis trailing the moment. also starting today is wheelchair tennis and alfie hewett of great britain is in the men's singles, the only grand slam title missing from an almost perfect career. this could be the year! time for a look at the weather, here's darren bett. nice to have a little bit of sunshine after so much rain at wimbledon. good job they have got the roof because there are more showers heading over there. we've had a lot of those recently. here in wales brooding skies, a little bit of summer heat not a lot of that. more showers on the weight which could turn heavy and thundery. temperatures around 18, 20 2 degrees, so on the cool side. we've seen how hot it is across southern parts of europe, this is the temperature, hotter than normal and we are drawing up heat from the

north—west of africa which continues to affect southern parts of europe. it could briefly get warmer further north this weekend but not in the uk. we stay in that cooler air which means we have got showers, this is the radar picture developing, some thunderstorms continuing in the north—east of england. more showers through the rest of today, and only as the sun goes down and we lose that energy that the showers will tend to decay. and the wind also dropping because it is quite blustery out there. so things quietening done overnight, temperatures down to ten or 11 degrees. but more showers on the way for tomorrow. degrees. but more showers on the way fortomorrow. some degrees. but more showers on the way for tomorrow. some sunshine around, but as the cloud builds up we will see showers breaking up and pushing their way east across england and wales. the heavier ones this time will be across scotland. the wind will be across scotland. the wind will be a little bit lighter tomorrow, it may feel a little bit warmer. but temperature is not changing very much. 18, 20 2 degrees

again with the chance of an odd shower again tomorrow at wimbledon. heading into the end of the week, this is heading our way, this area of low pressure will bring wet and windy weather by the end of the week. and you can see the wind and rain pushing up from the south—west, a bit of rain ahead of that moving into scotland but wetter weather elsewhere. focusing particularly on wales in the south—west of england, this is where we could see wind of up this is where we could see wind of up to 50 miles an hour along the coasts, with 48 millimetres of rain possible in the hills and even some thunderstorms. so as a result of this wet and windy weather temperatures again rather disappointing. and heading into the weekend, it is not a typical summer weather pattern, in that cooler air weather pattern, in that cooler air we have got low pressure continuing to dominate, heading north we may see an improvement eventually later in the weekend in the south but unusually windy for the time of year. the rain when it comes could be heavy and thundery and again it is staying cool.

thanks, darren. and that's bbc news at one. you can keep up with all the latest developments on the bbc website. the news continues here on bbc one — as now its time to join our colleagues across the nations and regions for the news where you are — goodbye. hello and welcome to sportsday. it's a repeat of the 2022 women's final at wimbledon in the last eight. 0ns jabeur will be after revenge, as she takes on defending champion elena rybakina. it's win or bust for england women in the ashes — captain heather knight says she's hopeful england can pull off the great escape and overturn australia's six—point lead. it's all about the medals at the world para—athletics championships — as great britain aim to build on their success today in paris.

hello and welcome to sportsday with me, betty glover. we're starting with wimbledon as the quarter—final action continues today. and we've got a repeat of the 2022 women's final as 0ns jabeur has just got underway against defending champion elena rybakina. so, lets go straight to chetan patak. chetan, this should be a very close one if last years final was anything to go by? yes, it was close last year. the player from yes, it was close last year. the playerfrom kazakhstan yes, it was close last year. the player from kazakhstan won yes, it was close last year. the playerfrom kazakhstan won herfirst grand slam. let us take you to centre court, they have been warming up centre court, they have been warming up and pleasure get under way shortly. elena rybakina is trying to

back up last year's incredible success with another wimbledon title. she has come into this with a virus that you could clearly see me to her vulnerable in the early rounds but she has looked better and better and i have to say against katie, she blew her away pretty promptly. you mentioned 0ns jabeur and her majesty, the queen is watching this one on centre court today. 0ns jabeur has talked about how special she finds wimbledon and how special she finds wimbledon and how desperate she is to win this title over any other. she is the sixth seed here, she has not had necessarily the great run she had last year but she has been playing many well since these champa chips have begun, seeing of petra, the former two—time champion in the last round. they will get under way on centre cut. the other quarterfinal of the day is under way in court one. the american, madison keys is trying to hang in on this first set.

there she is, trying to get past her opponent. frustration, though, so for her. she is only nine march running run, having won at eastbourne. she knows if she could get herself to the final, she will be the new women's world number one. madison keys holding serve therefore 5-2. this madison keys holding serve therefore 5—2. this trillion open champion playing the best tennis of her career, it is fair to say, and helping to bridge the third consecutive semifinal at a major this year. 0n the men's side, all eyes will be on court1 today surely, as american christopeher eubanks aims to extend his surprising run? what a great story! we talked about helen mark being the story of the women but chris is has been the story of the men's competition. this time last year he was thinking of giving up, thinking he wouldn't make it into the top 100 and here he is,

about to play a grand slam quarterfinal against the former world number one, the last remaining russian in the quarterfinal draw in the men's side. we also have a cracker to come on centre court. the two youngest men to play a quarterfinal at wimbledon in the open, carlos alcaraz and holger rune. that should be fascinating. we are also getting under way with the wheelchair tennis as well and that is of hewitt trying to win his first wimbledon singles title. he plays his opening match today, as does his doubles partner, gordon reid. we have that to look forward to. in the mixed doubles, disappointment for britain. the first british pair in the quarterfinals since 1983 and in the quarterfinals since 1983 and in the last hour, they have gone out. the women's ashes is back under way with the first of the three one day internationals taking place in bristol. australia lead the series 6—4, meaning england can't afford to lose the women's ashes is back under way

ben, hows it going? what's happened so far? it was a very good start in the very first over. the first ball went four for australia after electing to bat but the captain of australia was then lbw to kate cross. not given out initially. england used one of their reviews and the captain had to head back to the pavilion. a very good start for england but australia have steadied the ship somewhat. ellyse perry going nicely on 18 not out. phoebe lets on a 16 not out. australia have moved the score on the score on to 46—1 and we are now in the tenth over. we have a sell—out crowd here at bristol, a

sell—out crowd here at bristol, a sell—out for all of the remaining one—day matches stop england cannot afford to lose this one but in the opening stages, fairly even, i would say so far. we opening stages, fairly even, i would sa so far. ~ ~ ., ., ., say so far. we know england cannot afford to lose _ say so far. we know england cannot afford to lose this _ say so far. we know england cannot afford to lose this one, _ say so far. we know england cannot afford to lose this one, they - say so far. we know england cannot afford to lose this one, they don't i afford to lose this one, they don't have a great record against the aussies, do they?— have a great record against the aussies, do they? they don't, no. if ou no aussies, do they? they don't, no. if you go back — aussies, do they? they don't, no. if you go back all— aussies, do they? they don't, no. if you go back all the _ aussies, do they? they don't, no. if you go back all the way _ aussies, do they? they don't, no. if you go back all the way to _ aussies, do they? they don't, no. if you go back all the way to 2021, - you go back all the way to 2021, thatis you go back all the way to 2021, that is the last time australia lost a one day international in any format. you have to go back to 2016, the last time england beat australia at home in a one—day. but it did come right here at bristol so if you are looking for some good omens, thatis are looking for some good omens, that is potentially at but australia are formidable. we were speaking to the all—rounder yesterday and were england were saying they want to disrupt australia to get under their skin, which they did in those 2t20 internationals to keep the series alive, talia's response was, we are quite good at cricket, really, so

come at us. that is the mantra for them, they are approaching this and they can afford to lose this but just one win they need to retain the ashes. a 50 — one in the tenth over now. britain s medal tally is growing at the world para—athletics championships in paris. they re currently sixth in the medal—table, with two golds, a silver and two bronzes. but today offers both plenty of hope and maybe a little bit of expectation in their bid to improve their haul. 0ur reporter rachael latham is at the charlety stadium. great britain has claimed its fourth gold medal of these world championships this morning. holly arnold throwing to victory in the javelin. the women battled it out all morning but in the end, arnold was the only athlete to go over the 40 was the only athlete to go over the a0 metre mark and when it was announced that she had won that gold—medal, it was clear how much it meant to her, with all her emotion.

i spoke to the now five—time world champion straight after her event. it feels amazing. tokyo was so hard and i was heartbroken but thatjust ignited more fire in me. we have not competed with the girls for two years now since tokyo succumbing out here, to be able to retain my fifth world title, and to throw the furthest i have thrown for a few years, to be honest, i am so happy. ijust years, to be honest, i am so happy. i just knew today was mine and years, to be honest, i am so happy. ijust knew today was mine and i had to fight for it and i am so, so glad. to fight for it and i am so, so lad. , �* , to fight for it and i am so, so lad. , �*, ., , , glad. this evening's finals will be 'ust as glad. this evening's finals will be just as exciting _ glad. this evening's finals will be just as exciting with _ glad. this evening's finals will be just as exciting with jonnie - glad. this evening's finals will be l just as exciting with jonnie peacock just as exciting withjonnie peacock telling taking to the track for his 100 metres. the heat last night showed the competition from around the world means that everyone is significantly improved butjonnie peacock says he is feeling physically strong and mentally strong and he is still hoping to get on that put him. you can get all the latest sports news at from the bbc

chance to swim with mermaids is not an offer you get everyday. one thing led to another, and the henley mermaids started doing sponsored swims. goggles. a relay across the channel got them going. so we did that and then we kind of got a bit addicted to that. so then we did the bristol channel relay, and then we did the north channel relay. the thames is where the mermaids meet and train, but not before checking on the thames water website to see if sewage has been released nearby. so you can see from the map that there are no discharges happening at the moment in this area. there's one happening down there. with the forecast cool but clean, the mermaids prepared me for the water. for added safety, then, a whistle, so if you get into trouble... last year, thames water spilled sewage more than 8,000 times. something which even it had something which even it had

to admit was unacceptable. to admit was unacceptable. it's really refreshing, actually, it's really refreshing, actually, to be in freshwater like this. the key thing is really not to think too much about what it is you to be in freshwater like this. might be swimming in. we've seen sanitary products, condoms, sewage foam, stoma bags, sewage tide lines on the sewage tide lines on the feathers of swans... feathers of swans... questions about honesty. blue green algae in the summer. blue green algae in the summer. yeah, yeah. we've seen it all. but all that hasn't but all that hasn't stopped you swimming, all the pollution you've seen? it shouldn't stop anybody swimming. stopped you swimming, well, it has to — we have to fight, and we have - to give our river a voice. to give our river a voice. while you're watching the footy, we're fixing a leak. it's not just about sewage. it's not just about sewage. a quarter of all the water a quarter of all the water in thames water's network leaks out in thames water's network leaks out and the company has had to admit that things are getting worse, not better.
