virat kohli misses out on a century but india continue their unbeaten run at the cricket world cup. england hold off tonga to win the opening match of their three—test rugby league series. welcome along, thank you forjoining us. we start tonight with the day's only premier league game, which has seen aston villa beat west ham by 2—1. —— 4—1. the result moves villa up to fifth in the table and is their 11th win in a row at home, as adam cottier reports. aston villa are on their longest home winning run for more than four decades. the manager marks a year in charge this week under his guidance,

there are leaving an imprint on the top end of the premier league table can help by inform players like midfield players douglas louise, who gave them leads going scoring any six successive home premier league game. a foul saw villa awarded a penalty in the second half and another goal from the spot. west ham briefly rallied with bow and benefiting from a deflection to become only the third player ever to score in each of his club as my opening five away matches of a premier league season. no answer to bela's dominance as a watkin scored his eighth goal of the campaign and substitute liam bailey added a fourth, as villa crowned an 11th successive home league win. aston villa's tallied 19 points is the highest after nine games of the premier league season for 25 years.

before kick off at villa park, these were the scenes — a minute's applause for sir bobby charlton, a day after the england world cup winner died, at the age of 86. at old trafford today, fans have continued to sign a book of condolence and pay their respects to a manchester united legend, with flowers placed in front of the holy trinity statue which also includes george best and denis law. sir bobby charlton spent 17 years at united, winning three league titles, a european cup and an fa cup. former players have also been paying tribute. when the club decided that for all he'd done for manchester united, it was to name the south stand after him. and it was before the everton game at old trafford, and we had a lunch, and i had tojust be there and be with him as well, as one of our great players — not only for united, but for manchester city as well.

and we were on our own and i saw a tear in his eye, and i said, "are you 0k?" and this was bobby being really humble. and hejust said, "oh, i don't deserve this." i said, "bob, you deserve everything that comes your way for what you've done for this club, for your country and the world in football generally." and if you've seen any of the footage when he goes onto the pitch with his lovely wife norma, the tears were still in his eyes, because that's the kind of man he was. people who came into contact with sir bobby will have realised that here you have a very humble, ordinary man from the northwest of england who became a football player and achieved extraordinary things on the football pitch, things that will be remembered forever. there are more tributes on the bbc sport website.

celtic are back seven points clear at the top of the scottish premiership after a comfortable win at hearts this afternoon. matt o'riley led the way with a superb early opener. there were further goals from daizen maeda and kyogo furuhashi before this fierce tomoki iwata strike made it 4—1. for the champions it was a 10th successive win over hearts in all competitions, with the edinburgh side staying in fourth place. but there was no joy for celtic in the women's premiership. they've been beaten by rangers, who are a point clear at the top of the table tonight after a 2—1win. the first goal came shortly after half time from celtic�*s caitlin hayes. a few minutes later, rangers equalised with a header from 18—year—old kirsty mcclean. and ten minutes from time, rangers found the winner, thanks to rio hardy,

weekend and how much they're into it, it's really cool to be a part of. it's not if i had, like, a huge ambition to be a part owner of an f1 team but the opportunity came along and i think the people we're investing with, it's a really cool group of people, but also speaking with the alpeen team, their mindset and their vision for the future and where they want to go, i think that is going to be a really cooljourney to be a part of and hopefully the group that have come in and have invested can help them on their journey and push them up the grid and, you know, hopefully we're to help and try to be additive in any way that we can. emma raducanu has told the bbc that she hopes to be fit for the start of the new tennis season. this year has been a write—off, she's been out for six months after a series of operations on her wrists and ankle. she also explained why she has been through so many coaches in her short career. nesta macgregor reports.

hello. obviously a lot drier, sunnier across most of the uk after that deluge. unfortunately, the flooding continues in some parts of the country and these are the rainfall amounts from storm babet. eastern parts of scotland — over 200 millimetres of rain, in excess of 100 across so many other parts of the uk. and in parts of east anglia, even record—breaking rainfall for the month of october. now, tonight, the skies are going to be generally clear across the country and it's going to turn quite chilly. the winds will fall light. we're in a window of weather at the moment. you can see weather systems and cloud around the uk. but across the country, it's a case of clear skies. so, calm this evening, with light winds. a bit of mist and murk forming through the early hours. we've had a lot of moisture after that rainy weather. the temperatures early in the morning around freezing, orjust above, in the glens of scotland. for most of us, 5, 6, 7 degrees. the south coast there, in plymouth,

around 12 or 13 degrees. rain is forecast in the tip of cornwall, perhaps edging into parts of pembrokeshire, onlyjust, and into northern ireland. but i think the bulk of the uk, both the morning and the afternoon generally bright and sunny. look at the picture across scotland in the north and east, generally sunny skies on monday. monday night into tuesday, weather fronts approaching the uk once again. we're expecting thicker cloud and outbreaks of rain almost anywhere in the uk. there will be some sunshine as well, so not raining all through the day, but these eastern coasts will be fairly cloudy and damp at times, only around 11 degrees. a little bit of sunshine in the south, and one or two showers are possible in the south—west. and then i think from wednesday onwards, it really turns very unsettled. atlantic weather systems sweeping in on a strengthening south—westerly wind, up to gale force. so here is the morning. some rain across eastern scotland, but here is that main weather front that spreads across ireland,

reaches south—western parts of england and moves northwards through the course of the day. the last place you will see the rain on wednesday is the north sea coast. the outlook for the week ahead — it's a distinctly unsettled one. remember, it won't be raining all the time, but i think much rain again is on the way towards the end of the week, but nothing of the level we've had in the last few days. to head south, before
