song you mentioned, je t'aime... moi non plus is one we all loved and we are at a loss and pop culture. her ersonal are at a loss and pop culture. her personal relationship with the musician gaines berg, that was particularly significant. absolutely. this song that we see them both in the video together, it was a very important relationship, they had a daughter together, charlotte who made a film with jane, charting her life. that was shown in cannes and it was really interesting that they were that couple that was the celebrity couple that was much—loved and much remembered and people still talk about them so much in the world of fashion and film as well as on in the world of music. you mentioned the bag named after her and she really was a trendsetter in so many ways. in her and she really was a trendsetter in so many ways— her and she really was a trendsetter in so many ways-— her and she really was a trendsetter in so many ways. in so many ways but the last time — in so many ways. in so many ways but the last time she _ in so many ways. in so many ways but the last time she went _

her and the film her daughter made although it was a particularly that acclaimed, is a good insight into what her mother was and that relationship between her mother and father and daughter charlotte. certainly there is a legacy left behind with this amazing daughter who i'm sure will become an icon in her own right. who i'm sure will become an icon in her own right-— her own right. thank you for your thou~hts. her own right. thank you for your thoughts. there _ her own right. thank you for your thoughts. there are _ her own right. thank you for your thoughts. there are of— her own right. thank you for your thoughts. there are of course - her own right. thank you for your - thoughts. there are of course camera is now gathering outside, people gathering outside the house of jane birkin and we have a shot here and we will wait and see what unfolds as france is a country gathered to rememberjane birkin, and the iconic singer, actress and fashion icon. a heatwave continues to impact many countries across the northern hemisphere — with warnings that the extreme conditions could be dangerous to health. in the us, nearly a third of the population — that's 113 million people — have been placed under heat advisories.

the highest temperatures are in western states, and heat records are forecast to fall in the coming days. in asia, japan has issued heat stroke alerts in 20 of the country's 47 prefectures, affecting tens of millions of people. temperatures have been close to a0 degrees celsius in tokyo — just over one degree lower than the highest ever recorded figure. extremely high temperatures are also being experienced in europe and north africa. and with this heat comes the increased threat of wildfires. spanish officials evacuated more than 2000 people on saturday from la palma, in the canary islands because of this blaze. with the latest — here's our correspondent in madrid, guy hedgecoe. spain, where i am, is one of several countries in southern europe which has been seeing unusually high temperatures over recent days. although that heatwave is starting to taper off here in spain, other countries are still seeing very high temperatures. for example, in italy and in greece, where the acropolis monument has

been closed down temporarily at the hottest times of the day because of concerns about the health of people visiting it. there have also been wildfires in greece caused by the hot, dry conditions. wildfires as well on the dalmatian coast in croatia. this particular heatwave is expected to end by the end of the weekend. however, there is another heatwave due to hit parts of europe at the beginning of next week. the european space agency has warned that spain, france, germany, poland and italy are among the countries that could see extremely high temperatures. areas of italy, for example, we're told that they could see temperatures as high as 48 degrees celsius on tuesday. i am joined now by professor claudio cassardo, who is a professor of meteorology,

university of turin, italy. thank you for your time. it's an interesting for you because you are living the story and working on it. give us a sense of how hot it will get where you are.— give us a sense of how hot it will get where you are. yes, i'm in turin in north-west _ get where you are. yes, i'm in turin in north-west italy. _ get where you are. yes, i'm in turin in north-west italy. and _ get where you are. yes, i'm in turin in north-west italy. and i _ get where you are. yes, i'm in turin in north-west italy. and i imagine i in north-west italy. and i imagine it will be impacted _ in north-west italy. and i imagine it will be impacted by _ in north-west italy. and i imagine it will be impacted by the - in north-west italy. and i imagine i it will be impacted by the heatwave. yes, we expect the first effect of the heatwave tomorrow and it will continue for at least four consecutive days but north italy will be less affected part of our nation as he said before, the centre part and especially south italy will be much more affected because they are closer to the centre bubble of

enlarged in the last few years due to climate change so now the ridge of high pressure not only involves the sahara desert but moves across the sahara desert but moves across the mediterranean. so sometimes this region of very high pressure and high air moves along the mediterranean, and sometimes they influence the iberian peninsula and france and italy, sometimes the eastern mediterranean. find france and italy, sometimes the eastern mediterranean. and these are all countries — eastern mediterranean. and these are all countries that _ eastern mediterranean. and these are all countries that will _ eastern mediterranean. and these are all countries that will be _ eastern mediterranean. and these are all countries that will be impacted - all countries that will be impacted by those rising temperatures. professor, thank you for your expertise. professor, thank you for your exoertise-_ to south korea now — where at least 37 people are known to have died as a result of floods. rescue efforts continue to reach people trapped in their cars in an underground tunnel which was inundated after a nearby

river burst its banks. the workers, including divers, have spent the last 2a hours searching the underpass, which is half a kilometre long, in the town of cheongju, in the central chungcheong region. earlier our correspondent yuna ku sent us this update from seol. the rescue efforts are continuing. this has led to considerable loss of human life and properties and one of the worst incidences that took place in cheongju, what happened here was floodwater swept in in a tunnel and trapped people inside their vehicles. and rescuers including soldiers have been deployed to this region to continue the search for missing people and investigating the

economically significant? strategic is how they are _ economically significant? strategic is how they are positioning - economically significant? strategic is how they are positioning this. i is how they are positioning this. it's a mouthful, to give it its full title, the comprehensive and... it is a club of 500 million people spread across the globe, across asia in the pacific, you can imagine canada, mexico all the way down to places like malaysia, peru, singapore, japan and new zealand. this will mean frictionless free trade for uk exporters and this is a block which generates 13% of the world's come. the uk is now on board and should be around £7 trillion. no tariffs and all sorts of things including alcohol, cars various bits of machinery and should in theory boost the mac boost our imports. we

had deals already in place with nine out of the ii had deals already in place with nine out of the 11 countries in this block and as you alluded to, in terms of what it's worth to our economy, the government estimates are that it will provide gains of around 0.08% over ten years. that's about 8p for every £100 we generate. this is all of course about deals due to leaving the eu. and watchdog estimates that the cost of leaving the eu will be a reduction in gdp by about ir% over the next ten years. you touch on brexit there, this is one of the many prospects of other trade deal is now being signed. talks are ongoing for a number of deals and this took five years for this deal, we are in talks with india and the big one with the us, there is nothing looking likely according to the trade secretary at

the moment, kemi badenoch. and signing this deal, this is a block thatis signing this deal, this is a block that is around the world, thousands and thousands of miles away country so in a climate conscious world we are in, some are questioning whether it sensible to increase trade around the world instead of places like france and germany and by the way, the amount retrieved the mac trade we do with these countries equates to what we do with france and germany anyway. but they are putting a brave face on and saying it's a significant and symbolic and calling it something more akin to starting a start—up business. it something more akin to starting a start-up business.— now it's time for a look at today's sport with paul scott. hello from the bbc sport centre. let's start at wimbledon then — it's men's singles finals day as novak djokovic faces carlos

alcaraz. it is underway, djokovic going for a record equalling eight titles. its early exchanges but how's it going? you mentioned this 16 year age gap between alcaraz playing his first wimbledon final and djokovic in his ninth. i can tell you that djokovic is under pressure in his opening service, had a break point and got the loudest cheer to the right of me on hellman hill. people are trying to will alcaraz the underdog over the line and djokovic did what he so often does and dug in those pressure moments and got himself over the line so he has taken the first game of the wimbledon final, novak djokovic chasing an eight wimbledon singles title which would bring him level with roger federer and a total 24 level with roger federer and a total 2a grand slams him level with the

all time record and take him past serena williams. if you think about the history djokovic is chasing this year alone, the history djokovic is chasing this yearalone, if the history djokovic is chasing this year alone, if you could win that will be free of the four grand slams in his pocket with the us open still to come. but carlos alcaraz might just be playing his fourth ever grass court tournament but goodness me is he taking wild the surface. he looks dynamic and explosive, dug himself out of trouble from a set down and yet here he finds himself in the final. this is a repeat of the french open semifinal, the only time these two have met at a grand slam where alcaraz was more than in with a shout until he got cramp after the first two sets and disappeared from making that match a contest. he says he learned a lot from that and let's hope he can make a context of this. looking down on my screen at the moment i can tell you alcaraz is in trouble in his first service game and has to save

points. djokovic is on the brink of going to love up. points. djokovic is on the brink of going to love up-_ going to love up. what else has cau~ht going to love up. what else has caught your _ going to love up. what else has caught your eye _ going to love up. what else has caught your eye on _ going to love up. what else has caught your eye on the - going to love up. what else has| caught your eye on the sunday? going to love up. what else has - caught your eye on the sunday? on court number one we have already seen the men's wheelchair singles final and alfie hewett trying to win his eighth grand slam title, would have been his first wimbledon singles title but it wasn't to be for alfie hewett. he and his partner had won the doubles yesterday and hewitt was built beaten in the singles final last year and was beaten by the japanese opponent again, 17—year—old tokito oda who is again, 17—year—old tokito oda who is a real hot standout talent it wheelchair tennis at the moment. he won the french open final last month against alfie hewett and beat him in the australian open final but it's oda who is the wimbledon final. he wins his first wimbledon title and we also have the women's doubles final to come later this will be the

last one before retiring. that one still to come, junior finals to be completed but i are very much on centre court at the moment, djokovic having won the opening game of the match and alcaraz hanging in there in the second game but still has won a break point. is 30—a0 to alcaraz at the moment. you can keep up with it on the bbc sport website. a wonderful final round of 6—under par, has seen scotland's robert mcintyre shoot to the top of the leaderboard at the scottish open. overnight leader rory mcilroy bogeyed the second hole to relinquish the lead. but a birdie on the 17th means he is tied going into the final 8 he has a putt for victory in the next couple of moments. rory mccrory going for the title at the scottish open. you can follow that on the bbc sport
