accomplished was because of america. so the only thing that it can't do — which is run for president — i'm not going to complain about that! arnold schwarzenegger, thank you very much. thank you. ow, ow, ow, ow! laughter. oh, wow. that looked painful. time for a look at the weather. here's christopher blanchett. thank you very much indeed. good afternoon. we start our forecast a little further afield than normal. this is the satellite image of hurricane otis as it made landfall in mexico around the city of acapulco. a category five hurricane, the highest on the scale, the first time we have seen a storm of this strength in the area. likely to bring some potentially catastrophic impact with flooding rains,

mudslides and destructive winds, sustained speeds of 165 mph. and certainly a life—threatening storm surge, as well. millions of people could well be affected in acapulco and the nearby state of wetter, as well. closer to home, some heavy rain, especially across southern counties of england. the heavy rain working eastwards. we had an amber warning earlier which has now expired but has led to some fairly significant flooding in places through hampshire and the isle of wight in particular, where we had around three weeks worth of rain in little more than 12 hours. as we head into this afternoon, much of that rain has cleared away, it is bent predominantly dry through much of the midlands and wales and southern england. cloudy skies to the north—east of england to scotland, with patchy rain moving in off the north sea. as we head into this evening, we have another weather front approaching from the south—west, bringing some rain in towards devon and cornwall. in towards devon and cornwall. in towards wales and towards northern ireland. by the early hours it will work eastwards towards the midlands,

as well, and towards the south—east of england. three scotland it is a cloudy picture with a few showers, not as chilly as last night but cool towards east anglia, four degrees in norwich the overnight low. looking ahead to tomorrow, once again we have no pressure on the chart so it remains unsettled with some showers or longer spells of rain and quite brisk winds at times. here we have thursday morning. there is the overnight rain working eastwards, becoming confined to the north—east of england and towards eastern scotland. behind it, brighterskies with fairly frequent showers, some could be heavy. some bright skies towards northern ireland, temperatures around 12 to 15 degrees north to south. the rain continuing to build up and exactly in the areas we don't want it, particularly in the north—east of scotland, already falling on flooded areas, we could well see further impact in the coming days. the reason why, well, low pressure sticks with us so the pattern sticks with us. further outbreaks of showery rain, some could be quite heavy and at times.

there will be some windows of opportunity in between, some are brighter skies, opportunity in between, some are brighterskies, but opportunity in between, some are brighter skies, but the wet weather never far away. temperatures, brighter skies, but the wet weather neverfar away. temperatures, ten to 15 celsius north to south once again. that pattern is set to stick with us towards the weekend. the last weekend of october, so remaining are settled with showers or longer spells of rain, temperatures around average for the time of year, ten to 15 degrees by mid temperatures around average for the time of year, ten to 15 degrees by mid afternoon. temperatures around average for the time of year, ten to 15 degrees by mid afternoon. that temperatures around average for the time of year, ten to 15 degrees by mid afternoon. that is temperatures around average for the time of year, ten to 15 degrees by mid afternoon. that is the temperatures around average for the time of year, ten to 15 degrees by mid afternoon. that is the forecast. thanks, christopher. 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 it's time to join our colleagues across the nations and regions for the news where you are — goodbye. hello, and welcome to sportsday. i'm gavin ramjaun. tom curry�*s among the starters for england ahead of their final match at the rugby world cup — following a week of controversy

for him after their semifinal loss. manchester city are in switzerland, on an artificial pitch — as the holders look to make it three out three in the champions league. and, we'll bring you the first of our profiles — for the bbc�*s women's footballer of the year — one of the stars from spain's world cup winning squad. ben youngs, england's

men's both england's women are also in action on friday — they take on canada in dunedin, in the new wxv competition, after opening with a win against australia last week. there are also talks underway for an international against new zealand at twickenham next year. it would be a repeat of the most recent world cup final in auckland last november, which the black ferns won. the first time england played a standalone women's test fixture at twickenham was in april, when a world record crowd of 58,198 watched them beat france to win the six nations grand slam. england captain marlie packer says the red roses want to continue setting new benchmarks. really exciting at the squad, to be honest with you. we really exciting at the squad, to be honest with you.— really exciting at the squad, to be honest with you. we are a squad that wants to keep — honest with you. we are a squad that wants to keep breaking _ honest with you. we are a squad that wants to keep breaking world - honest with you. we are a squad that wants to keep breaking world records and, you know, what better place to do it than at twickenham, again,

against new zealand. another stand—alone game. we've got the island one in six nations, but new zealand there, one that we all want to be involved in and actually keep breaking world records. wales fullback leigh halfpenny has announced his retirement from international rugby union. the game against the barbarians on 11th november will be his final test, but he'll continue to play club rugby. at the age of 3a, halfpenny has 101 caps to his name, and with 801 points scored, he is third in the all—time welsh list behind neiljenkins and stephenjones. halfpenny said he'd made the decision with a heavy heart, and it had been a huge honour and privilege to put on the welsh jersey for the past 15 years. the provisional details of rugby league's new grading structure have been released this morning, with leeds rhinos coming out top. they are one of seven clubs to be initially awarded grade a status, which would ensure their place in super league. the detailed analysis looks at five elements — on—field performance, fandom, finances,

stadium and community. the plan is to give clubs a clear indication of their strengths and weaknesses, and the areas in which they need to improve to increase their score ahead of the start of the new system in the 2025 season. at the cricket world cup, australia look on their way to setting a strong score against the netherlands, with david warner reaching his century. in the last half—hour he has reached 140 balls. fix, in the last half-hour he has reached 140 balls. ~ _, ., , 140 balls. a record for this tournament. _ 140 balls. a record for this tournament. that - 140 balls. a record for this tournament. that amazing 140 balls. a record for this - tournament. that amazing school coming as he punished the elevens bowlers around the ground, eventually getting out to a couch —— a catch in the deep. essentially the fourth fastest in any of these matches, and they have just finished

the match is closing on 399. after great wins for arsenal and manchester united last night, the champions league continues this evening, with the holders manchester city in switzerland to face young boys. they have a 100% record so far — and they travelled early to get a feel for the artificial pitch — they don't usually train away from home but they've made an exception in this case, so the players can get used to the surface. it is what it is. if we are allowed to play here, it's because it's in a good condition. that's one of the reasons why we never train away games before the game, but this is an exception. that's why we travel in the morning, to feel, the players, how the ball runs, how move right, left, backwards, forward. and that's why. no wonder eddie howe is smiling — the newcastle manager pulled off one of the wins of his career, beating kylian mbappe's paris saint germain last time out.

but as they prepare to face borussia dortmund tonight, he says it's time to move on from that brilliant victory. we need to forget the psg result. take the confidence from it, but forget it, and try and create that atmosphere all over again. and for us, try and recreate those energy levels and intensity levels and quality of our play. celtic are looking for their first group stage win, at home, in the competition for 10 years. they host atletico madrid tonight but they're yet to pick up a point in this season's campaign — and they're smarting after losing at celtic park to lazio last time out — the italian side scoring a 95th—minute winner. adversity is some of the best learning you have. and the pain of that. it was numbing at the end, because we didn't feel we deserved that. i respect the level that we're at, and it's up to us to try and see if we can be more progressive in our results, in order to push forward.

you're watching bbc news. i'm catherine byaruhanga. more now on the news that a former south wales police officer has been given a life sentence for blackmailing girls into sending him explicit videos. lewis edwards — who's 24 — admitted to more than 160 offences and will spend a minimum of 12 years in prison. i spoke to our correspondent daniel sandford who was outside cardiff crown court and he told us more about the case. pc lewis edwards has admitted all of the offences, more than 160 offences, and all 160 of them being to do with blackmail or the abuse of girls aged between ten and 16. he did not come to court for the sentencing hearing this week. he chose to stay in prison, rather than to face the absolute horror of what he had done.

it has been an incredibly distressing week. the details of how he was blackmailing these teenage girls and the sheer angst, that they were crying and begging in some of the videos that they sent to him, that he should now stop and not make them do anything more. it has been incredibly distressing, and there have been family members present in court this week. many family members present in court today, including three of the girls that he had abused. what pc lewis edwards did was essentially pretend to be a teenage boy on snapchat, befriend teenage girls, be nice to them, persuade them to send him explicit images, and then once he had an explicit image of a girl, he would use that to blackmail them into sending him really, really, really explicit sexual content, by threatening to put the images that they had already sent him out online in public view. as i say, this caused really, really extreme distress

among some of the girls.
