stop the violence, step back from the brink. sir keir starmer uses his first speech at the un general assembly to call for an immediate ceasefire in lebanon. there were more than 200 flood alerts and warnings in place this morning in england and wales. the rain is still lashing down this morning with some real concern about rising river levels. nicola bulley�*s partner speaks in detail for the first time about her disappearance and the impact of social media speculation on him and his family. when you experience something like this you realise what a huge monster it can be, i guess. petrol and diesel prices are at their lowest for three years. i'll be looking at what's driving

costs down and whether there'll be more price cuts ahead. good morning. in sport, a historic night for scottish football celtic celebrate becoming the first scottish team to qualify for the main group stages of the women's champions league. and as you saw, rain is still falling across parts of england and wales in particular but it is set to clear two brighter but colder weather. one of the forecast details here on breakfast. —— all of the details later. good morning, it's friday the 27th september. our main story. hurricane helene, a dangerous category four storm has made landfall in the us state of florida. one person has been killed and there's more than 350 thousand homes and businesses are currently without power. authorities warn the hurricane could bring a �*catastrophic�* and �*unsurvivable�* storm surge, with winds of around 140 miles an hour being recorded. our north america correspondent david willis reports.

hurricane helene touched down on florida's gold coast bringing on florida's gulf coast bringing with it winds of around 130 miles an hour. officials had warned of potentially catastrophic and unsurvivable coastal storms surges, in places the height of a two storey building. lashing rain proceeded helen's arrival, flooding streets and leaving more than half a million florida homes with out power. officials had pleaded with those in the path of the storm to heed mandatory evacuation orders. and for those still sheltering in their homes, to stay put. you need to be right now hunkering down. now is not the time to be going out, there's going to be streets that are flooded and will continue to flood all up and down the west coast of florida. so it's hazardous conditions right now, and please, do not be going outside until things settle down.

some, however, chose to ignore the advice, public officials in the city of fort myers to navigate the area prompting officials in the city of fort myers to navigate the area by boat and wade their way through waist deep floodwaters in order to check on those who might be trapped. president biden promised full support of the federal government in dealing with the effects of hurricane helene. we have search and rescue teams, medicalteams, power restoration teams, generations, water, food, generators, water, food, on the ground and ready to support families throughout the coming days. let me say this. everyone needs to take it seriously. extremely seriously. satellite images plotting helene�*s destructive path promp=ed satellite images plotting helene�*s destructive path prompted the closure of local schools and airports along with this worst—case scenario appeal for those who chose not to evacuate

to write their name on their arm in marker pens so they could be identified by family members. 55 million people across the southern united states are expected to feel the effects of hurricane helene, and the us weather service is predicting the area will experience its worst flooding in more than a century. david willis, bbc news, los angeles. we will be in the united states in the next half an hour but now the other stories of the day and we begin with an update on thatcher to the middle east. —— tensions in the middle east. there are growing calls for a ceasefire in lebanon. sir keir starmer used his speech at the un general assembly, last night to call for an end to the conflict. our diplomatic correspondentjames landale has this report. there is no ceasefire in beirut. this was the aftermath of yet another air strike in the lebanese capital. israel says it's targeting hezbollah commanders. these were their images of the attack, one that had devastating consequences. at the united nations, the prime minister has been meeting

key regional leaders. he signed up to an international call for an immediate ceasefire, a call he echoed as he addressed the un general assembly for the first time. i call on israel and hezbollah, stop the violence, step back from the brink. we need to see an immediate ceasefire, to provide space for a diplomatic settlement. and we are working with all partners to that end, because further escalation serves no—one, it offers nothing but more suffering for innocent people on all sides. the trouble is that israel's prime minister seems unswayed. he's arrived in new york before addressing the un today. he hasn't explicitly ruled out a ceasefire, but many of his ministers have. my policy, our policy is clear. we are all continuing to strike hezbollah with full force, and we will not stop until we reach

all our goals. chief among them, the return of the residents of the north securely to their homes. american diplomats warn that all—out war will not make northern israel safer, but a negotiated settlement would. but this argument seems, for now, to be falling on deaf ears. diplomats here were initially optimistic about the possibility of a ceasefire, but that is ebbing fast. they fear that mr netanyahu will bow to domestic pressure rather than international pressure. one said to me, "we are inching towards the brink, not back from it." benjamin netanyahu's got to go! benjamin netanyahu was not given a universally warm welcome in new york, protesters calling for an end to the fighting both in lebanon and gaza, a sentiment he may find echoed in the un assembly chamber later today. james landale, bbc news, new york.

israel's air force have said its fighterjets have hit around 220 hezbollah targets in the past day. they've mainly been in the south, in the eastern bekaa valley and in the capital beirut. more than a0 rockets were fired the other way from lebanon into israel. our middle east correspondent hugo bachega is in beirut. we are hearing much about this ceasefire calls from new york, this is having very little bearing on events on the ground?- is having very little bearing on events on the ground? yeah, charlie, morninu. events on the ground? yeah, charlie, morning. yesterday _ events on the ground? yeah, charlie, morning. yesterday there _ events on the ground? yeah, charlie, morning. yesterday there was - events on the ground? yeah, charlie, morning. yesterday there was some i morning. yesterday there was some hope that these diplomatic efforts could result in a ceasefire, i think this morning there is much more pessimism, i think it's very difficult to see how a ceasefire can be achieved. at the moment. the israelis are saying that this offensive against hezbollah is going to continue with this intense widespread air strikes. there's also the possibility of a ground incursion into southern lebanon to

create a so—called buffer zone to destroy the infrastructure can be used by hezbollah and push fighters away from the border. hezbollah has not given indications that it is willing to back down, it has continued to fire rockets at israel. the lebanese population is feeling the impact of this violence. hundreds of people have been killed, tens of thousands have been forced to flee their homes, and yesterday in new york, the lebanese foreign minister said his country was facing a crisis threatening its very existence. a crisis threatening its very existence-— a crisis threatening its very existence. ., ., ., existence. hugo, for the moment, thank ou existence. hugo, for the moment, thank you very _ existence. hugo, for the moment, thank you very much. _ existence. hugo, for the moment, thank you very much. sir- existence. hugo, for the moment, thank you very much. sir keir- thank you very much. sir keir starmer was addressing the un in new york. after his address at the un, the prime minister had a two hour dinner with us presidential candidate donald trump in new york. our political editor chris mason sent this report. hello from new york, where the prime minister has spent the last few days meeting world leaders at the un general assembly. but before heading back to the airport to fly back

to the uk, a two hour dinner at trump tower, meeting the former president. alongside the prime minister, the foreign secretary, david lammy, who has previously been pretty disobliging about mr trump, calling him a racist and a neo—nazi sympathising sociopath. oh, to be a fly on the wall when those two men were talking. little detail from either side about precisely what was spoken about. intriguingly, the prime minister has not met the vice president, kamala harris, the democratic candidate. that wasn't possible because of diary commitments. he does hope to talk to her soon. meanwhile flash flooding has caused damage to homes and businesses in parts of england, after another night of heavy rainfall. it comes just days after some areas experienced more than a month's worth of rainfall on monday, disrupting travel. simonjones is in shefford in bedfordshire this morning.

lord incumbent simon. the umbrella is up, —— good morning to you, simon, give us a sense of how many problems there are this morning. i don't think it is an official net office term but i can tell you the weather this morning here is really grim. the rain is pouring down, it has been getting heavier in the last hour, raining for much of the night, and that comes after several days of ready torrential showers. currently, there are 60 flood warnings in place of meaning that flooding is expected in england and more than 120 flood alerts are in england and wales meeting flooding is possible. the river behind b is really high, it has burst its banks in various spots. driving around, there are lots of deep puddles and that comes after a number of difficult days. in leicester last night,

this road resembled a river and the relentless rain keeps on falling. some areas received more than a month's worth in a single day. in egham in surrey, the wind has been whipping up too, creating wild conditions. in birmingham, cars have been caught out. in selly oak, it's been a busy time for the emergency services helping rescue drivers. public transport has been doing its best to keep on running, but at birmingham new street station there have been delays and cancellations. the environment agency has this advice for anyone heading out. there will be a lot of water out on the roads and travel might be really difficult, so we need them to make sure they pay attention to any emergency services. and later in the day we are expecting further rainfall in areas through the midlands. telford united football club

says it's been deluged after a thunderstorm. it's appealing to fans to come and help dry out their flooded pitch. this nearby street shows any clean up is going to take some time. with rain falling onto already saturated ground, the warning is that there is more disruption ahead. there was an amber warning in place for rain overnight for 12 hours, that has nowjust expired. but that has been replaced by a much wider yellow warning for rain that covers this area, the midlands, the whole of southern england, and also wales. that means we could see power cuts, it could be difficult getting about on the roads, and it is possible properties could be flooded. after that, once that expired at 9am, we are told particularly in southern england, there could be lightning and even the possibility of tornadoes, you have been warned. thank you, simon.

a man has been arrested in connection with what's been described as an act of cyber—vandalism at most of the biggest railway stations in england and scotland. british transport police say the man works for global reach technology which provides wi—fi services to network rail. passengers trying to access the wi—fi were diverted to a page that police say displayed islamaphobic messaging. the model naomi campbell has been banned from being a charity trustee for five years after a watchdog found charity funds were being mismanaged. misconduct included using charity money to pay for stays in luxury hotels and spa treatments. she said she was not the person "in control" of the charity. the sentencing of two 13—year—old boys for the murder of shawn seesahai expected to conclude today. the 19—year—old was killed with a machete in wolverhampton in november last year. the pair are believed to be the youngest convicted murderers since the killing ofjames bulger. our midlands correspondent phil mackie reports.

posing with the machete just hours before it was used to take a teenager's life. this picture was found on one of the boy's phones, where the police also found a conversation in which one said "i'm scared man," to which the other replied, "i'm not," and "idrc," or i don't really care, the morning after they'd murdered shawn seesahai. this is the last image of shawn a few minutes before he was fatally attacked in a nearby park. they killed my son like they kill a dog or something, you know? they chop his leg, they chop his arm, they chop piece off his head out. they stab him through and through. the boys were arrested the next day, and the murder weapon was found under one of their beds. they were convicted after a five week trial in june. because they were so young, the judge and barristers abandoned their gowns and wigs, and specially trained staff and family members sat alongside the boys to offer support. shawn seesahai had come to the uk from the british overseas territory

of anguilla for treatment after suffering a detached retina during a basketball game. his parents couldn't afford to come back to the uk for this hearing, but hope the boys are given a long sentence. give these children maybe a life sentence to show other children that what they will reach if they do something like this. ijust want good, good justice for my child. i really want good justice for my son. ijust hope and pray that we get good justice for him. shawn's family couldn't afford to come to court for sentencing. instead, the anguillan government's uk representative read out a statement on their behalf in which they said, "it has left a huge hole in the pit of our stomachs, which nothing can fill. we are devastated as a family, totally heartbroken." the boys will both be sentenced to life for murder, but in a few hours, mrsjustice tipples will set out

the minimum term that each must serve before they become eligible for parole. back in anguilla his family will be watching today via a video link, knowing that whatever happens, it won't bring their son back. phil mackie, bbc news. the treasury is reconsidering elements of labour's manifesto plan to toughen up the abolition of non—dom tax status. it's understood there are concerns about how much money would be raised for the likes of school breakfast clubs and the nhs if rich foreigners leave the uk. our political correspondent helen catt is in westminster. helen, this is one of those stories that attracts a lot of attention and now the treasury focusing, explain? yeah, this is a long—standing commitment by labour to scrap non—dom tax status, that is where wealthy individuals are not resident in the uk for tax purposes, which

means they only have to pay tax on their earnings in the uk, none of their earnings in the uk, none of the rest of it. because this is something that labour has said it is going to do for years, the conservatives got there first. jeremy hunt in the budget last year announced that he was going to abolish it and replace it with a new regime. but he built in some concessions to sweeten the pill. and labour said concessions to sweeten the pill. and laboursaid in their concessions to sweeten the pill. and labour said in their manifesto that they would get rid of those. the problem that has emerged is that treasury officials acknowledge that getting rid of these concessions might not actually raise any money, and that's because they were designed to try and stop people emigrating, and if there is even a small change in the immigration levels, that could completely change the calculation. that is why the treasury is reportedly looking at perhaps watering down some of those, although we are told no decisions have been made. the treasury is adamant it is still going to scrap non—dom status in general, they have described this as speculation. helen, thank you very much.

have you got any bands that you listen to on repeat? # i used to rule the world, sees would rise on a game of the word... i like that one! coldplay have been named the most played british group of the 21st century. the music licensing company ppl say the london group's songs were played the most across the uk via radio, television and in public places like shops and restaurants. the band's songs were played 40,000 more times than their next biggest competitor, queen. coldplay�*s most popular track is their 2008's number one hit viva la vida. love it. that's one of my once i play on repeat in the car to perk me up. play on repeat in the car to perk me u -. ~ ., ., ~ play on repeat in the car to perk me u . _ . ., ., ~' ., play on repeat in the car to perk me up. we were looking at the weather, simon was in — up. we were looking at the weather, simon was in amongst _ up. we were looking at the weather, simon was in amongst it _ up. we were looking at the weather, simon was in amongst it and - up. we were looking at the weather, simon was in amongst it and that. up. we were looking at the weather, simon was in amongst it and that is | simon was in amongst it and that is going to be the picture for quite a lot of people today, isn't it, matt?

yes, but it will improve drastically into the afternoon. this was the scene in scarborough yesterday, north yorkshire the wettest spot in this latest round of heavy rain, 81 millimetres there, 100 millimetres on the moors. we have had a month's weather rain in other parts of wales and northern ireland. it has been pretty wet, heavy rain around at the moment. the ground. temperatures at lower levels rain ht or nine, at a ground. temperatures at lower levels rain around 1e, at a ground. temperatures at lower levels rain around at at a ground. temperatures at lower levels rain around at thea ground. temperatures at lower levels rain around at the moment. the heaviest rain is pushing through heavy rain around at the moment. the heaviest rain is pushing through parts into the midlands and some parts into the midlands and some lively thunderstorms clearing away lively thunderstorms clearing away from the far south—east corner. it from the far south—east corner. it is all shifting south, north of that is all shifting south, north of that brighter conditions, a few scattered brighter conditions, a few scattered showers but a chilly wind, which showers but a chilly wind, which will push away the rain from other will push away the rain from other parts. so an improving picture. parts. so an improving picture. showers into scotland today could be showers into scotland today could be wintry over the tops of higher wintry over the tops of higher ground. temperatures at lower ground. temperatures at lower

emergency. hello, my partner left this morning at 8:30 to take my two children to school, and the dog went with her. and then the school's just rung me to say that they've just found the dog, somebody found the dog, and my partner's put her phone down on a bench and the dog lead.

"i've got to go to st michael's." i've got to try and help. there was a possibility that she'd entered the water. she'd sought time alone and left the area. there was a possibility that she was ill or injured on land. but the biggest thing was the dog, willow. she was off the lead, there was nothing to keep her in that location physically, but she wouldn't leave the area between the bench and the water. in my mind she was in the water. i was really hoping we'd hear something before dark. somebody will be in touch with you there, 0k? we didn't sleep much. no. we just kept saying, where are you? yeah _ on the day that i took over the case, i went to meet the family. at no point was paul ever a suspect. he'd not left the house until he was contacted by the school. she just seemed like a normal person, like myself. it could be me, like,

i walk my dogs. i was then trying to understand what had happened, why it had happened. there was an update a couple of days ago... on tiktok i started to do the lives and we got over a thousand, sometimes nearly two, so you could see it escalating. it can absolutely spread the word. there's two billion users worldwide. and when i did that first video, it got three million views. - social media, nicky used it more than i did because she used to sell stuff so she would do live videos. hello, good afternoon. i hope everybody's having a lovely saturday. when you experience something like this, you realise what a huge monster it can be, i guess. lancashire police say they believe that... it was all over social media. it was on the television everywhere. speaking german. it was almost as if people didn't want to believe the police. ijust had a message come up. from a lady referring to a video

of me dancing during lockdown, i and she sent me a message saying "wow, they say life goes on, . but dancing around your kitchen like that already." and i was like, what the hell? awful things started to be said. i was getting direct messages from people that i've never met, and you can't do anything about it. we had arranged for a press conference in order to try and negate the conspiracy theorists. as soon as she was reported missing, based on a number of specific vulnerabilities that we were made aware of, nicola was graded as high risk. ijust remember watching it and hearing about - the vulnerabilities and looking at you and thinking, _ "oh, god, media are not. going to leave that there." we had to do something. we spoke to the family, we came up with a form of words with their agreement, and by that i don't mean they were happy about this, they absolutely weren't.

"it doesn't have to say that, it doesn't have to say this," and then before we knew it, it had just gone. we were still working on it and then they'd released it. lancashire police are facing a growing backlash for revealing that she'd had ongoing struggles with alcohol and the menopause. what would nicky think of all this? i mean, she'd be, bless her, she would be mortified. for anyone joining now, _ lancashire police said this morning, "you may be aware of police activity around the river to reports - of a body in the river wyre." at the river bank i could see the divers in the river with what i now know is nicky. so we put a tent up and i sat with nicky in that tent for quite a long time, until she was taken to the hospital. nicky, she was so beautiful, she didn't know it. as far as nicky, going missing and the mystery to it, i guess, it was just an accident.

it doesn't always have to be something sinister linked to something that happens. sometimes bad thingsjust happen. cheers, mummy, i miss you,j and i wish you could be here. i still struggle talking about nicky in the past sense. i feel very blessed that we found each other. we will talk to the documentary of that —— the director of that documentary later. the search for nicola bulley will be broadcast on bbc one next thursday, and will be avaible to watch on bbc?iplayer. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm paul murphy—kasp. tfl is continuing to grapple with an ongoing cyber attack. it's affecting online services, including the oyster photocard website,

which is currently unavailable. on tuesday around 100,000 zip cards for under—16s will stop scanning on oyster card readers. they were due to expire this month but the ongoing disruption means customers cannot apply for new cards. tfl says it has written to parents and guardians of children affected to offer advice and support. the all england tennis club 5 plans to expand the home of the wimbledon championships could be given the go ahead today. it wants to build 39 new courts on wimbledon park. city hall is set to decide whether planning permission should be granted but local groups including save wimbledon park say the area will become a "a huge industrial tennis complex." a bench in honour of caroline flack will be unveiled later in north london aimed at preventing suicide. the late tv presenter took her own life in february 2020. the bench, by charity legend on the bench, will be unveiled at the tottenham community sports centre. over 3,500 seals now call the thames estuary home, according to the zoological society of london. it teamed up with the raf to carry out its latest seal survey, observing them from military

conditions of yesterday, today too starts off rather unsettled. we still have this met office yellow weather warning for the risk of heavy rain, valid until 9 o'clock this morning. but this rain will continue to clear further southwards as we head through the day and, by the afternoon, more in the way of drier weather, although there is still the chance of some scattered showers, some sunny spells as well, but colder conditions. temperatures only reaching 10 to 12 celsius, as we're drawing in this cold air all the way from the north. but overnight tonight it becomes dry with clear skies and a chilly night in store. temperatures widely dipping to low single figures. there may even be a touch of frost in the outskirts. and, as we look ahead to the rest of this weekend, well, saturday itself is largely dry with high pressure, but this area of low pressure is arriving later on sunday and into monday, bringing with it some outbreaks of rain. but, for the most part, saturday is largely dry. some spells of sunshine. it will be cool, but the winds will be lighter. a cold night to come saturday night. dry to start sunday, but then rain to arrive later in the day. i'm back with more in half an hour,

in global energy prices. injuly two years ago, petrol was at a record average of 1.92 a litre. a similar trend for diesel but, as wholesale prices have tumbled, we've seen that mirrored at the pump ? prices steadily falling to these three—year lows. so good news for drivers but the rac, other motorist groups and the regulator, the competition and markets authority, have all been critical of supermarkets recently — which sell the majority of petrol and diesel in the uk ? saying they haven't previously been passing lower wholesale prices onto customers. is that changing? i think we're definitely in a better place with fuel prices now. we have greater transparency as a result of the temporary scheme, in which 1a or 15 of the biggest retailers in the country are providing prices to the competition and markets authority

on a daily basis. we're analysing that data and that's how we can see prices are coming down. i think there's always scope to go further. i think we always would expect retailers to do more, and it's important to shop around for the best price. we always like to hear from you on this. have you been noticing the drop in price or do you think more should be done to get those reductions quicker? get in touch with us in the usual ways. remember to give your name and where you are getting in touch from. the other and known what happens with fuel duty, whether the temporary 5p cut will be kept. we will find out when the chancellor announces her plans at the end of october. good to see something coming down. good to see something coming down. good to see a chart as well. what a treat! two chance. have you got a chart?

no, but! no, but i am celebrating a first something your peers have not done before. betterto something your peers have not done before. better to show celtic players celebrating, isn't it? what are they celebrating? i will explain all. so after this milestone moment, celtic�*s players and fans will be eagerly awaiting the draw for the group stage of the women's champions league later today. they're the first scottish team to be in the hat for this part of this competition, thanks to their 2—0 win over vorskla poltava of ukraine. celtic were already leading from the first leg, and this was the moment they wrapped things up. shannon mcgregor, with the emphatic header — their second on the night, which meant the celebrations could begin. the players making sure they soaked up the moment with the fans. and the head coach saying she couldn't explain the excitement. to be in the elite 16 clubs in europe. there were also victories on the night for manchester city and arsenal, who booked their places in the group stages, but it was celtic, who broke new ground for scottish football.

we got the confidence at half—time to know we could do this. just crazy. two weeks ago ijust signed. to be playing in the champions league, scoring a goal, really good for scottish football. i am just delighted it is us. now, as nights go, it couldn't have been much worse for oarabag — a team from azer—baijan — in the men's europa league. they were staying in stratford, east london, to face tottenham, but road and rail disruption meant the six—mile journey, took over two and a half hours and they arrived late. and so kick—off had to be put back. they then missed a penalty and loads of chances and lost 3—0. the travel chaos around north london, was matched on the pitch, asjust seven minutes in, spurs defender radu dragusin got caught napping and was sent off as he tried to make amends. but, despite playing for most of the match, a player down, tottenham were still far too strong, with summer signing dominic solankey completing the victory.

rangers had never won before in sweden, but that all changed last night, as they started their europa league campaign, with an impressive 2—0 win at malmo. the tone was set from the start, as they took the lead in the first couple of minutes. bajrami adding the finishing touch. their second came late on. ross mccausland with this fine finish to give phillipe clement's side this milestone moment in malmo. now cricket... england take on australia in the fourth one day international at lord's later today, needing to win to set up a series decider. harry brook's century, in the third match at durham, kept england's hopes of a series win alive, as england ended a run of seven straight defeats to australia in the 50—over format. bowler matthew potts is confident that england will get the win they need to make sure there's still everything to play for in the final match on sunday.

when we were 2—0 down we said we were come back fighting and try to win the series 3—2. haifa were come back fighting and try to win the series 3-2.— win the series 3-2. how confident are ou? win the series 3-2. how confident are you? very _ win the series 3-2. how confident are you? very confident. - win the series 3-2. how confident are you? very confident. as - win the series 3-2. how confident are you? very confident. as long | win the series 3-2. how confident l are you? very confident. as long as we no are you? very confident. as long as we to out are you? very confident. as long as we go out there _ are you? very confident. as long as we go out there and _ are you? very confident. as long as we go out there and stay _ are you? very confident. as long as we go out there and stay true - are you? very confident. as long as we go out there and stay true to - we go out there and stay true to ourselves there is no reason why it can't come off. take your umbrella if you are lucky enough to be going to lourdes. it is not guesswork if you have matt taylor on standby. straight up and down backs. you will need an umbrella and an autumn jacket. you will need an umbrella and an autumnjacket. certainly, there will be a lot of wet weather around in the short—term. this is a typical shot from that the chair over the last you days. not only have we seen unbelievable amounts of rainfall for september, we have had our wettest month on record. at woburn in

bedfordshire, four times the rainfall for the month. other spots have broken their september rainfall records. bad news when there is more rainfall around. very heavy rain clearing away from the south—east. some persistent rain through the midlands, east anglia. it is on the shed. it was clear as we go into the afternoon, particularly the middle part of the afternoon. some of you will see more scattered showers than others. a northerly wind adding a bike to things. eight to 13, 1a on the thermometers. it will feel colder than that. high pressure builds in. the cold air will be in place for the end of the day, through the night and into the start of the weekend before being shifted out of their way. as we go through

tonight, as their showers continue along the coast, inland it will become clear. that she main pushes into the west of scotland. we could see a rural frost in some places. further south actually start. a bright start for england and wales. a view showers developed in the west. scotland, northern ireland still hazy spells of sunshine but the greater chance of a view showers graphically in the north and west of scotland. temperatures on saturday rather chilly around 11 to 15. another cold night to take us through saturday night into sunday. you are not wanting to see this. through sunday some wet and windy weather spilling its way up from the south and the west. not as heavy as we have seen in the past few days. through a view showers graphically in the north and west of scotland. temperatures on saturday rather chilly around 11 to 15. another cold

night to take us through saturday night to take us through saturday night into sunday. you are not wanting to see this. through sunday some wet and windy weather spilling its way up from the south and the west. not as heavy as we have seen in the past few days. throwing more a year to the day since the sycamore gap tree was cut down, the national trust is offering communities across the uk the chance to re—plant the saplings rescued from the site. there was an outpouring of anger when the tree, which stood in a dip next to hadrian's wall in northumberland, was attacked with a chainsaw. now, after nurturing the young twigs and seeds from the site, 49 saplings are being offered. the iconic sycamore gap tree. it was shocking. it was devastating. it felt really brutal. but, a small team managed to salvage seeds and twigs, which they successfully sowed and grafted in a secret greenhouse. this tree has been given a second chance at life. so, chris, the last time i was here, i could hold these seedlings in my hands.

what's happened to them? well, they've grown a little bit. here they are. oh, crikey! look at that. that one's taller than me. and i'm five foot five. yeah, they've done pretty well. how many have you got? we've got roughly about 100 at the moment, but we've got a few more seedlings coming on as well. and there's about nine or so grafts and budded plants. you can't help but feel hopeful handling new life and seeing the roots here are established. but the question now is... ..where will their new homes be? the national trust wants these saplings to be symbols of hope and healing. each tree will go to a very special place. one of the first will be planted here in memory of 12—year—old fergus. everybody, it's fergus from the cricket channel. and today we're going to be looking at the sweet shop. let's go. we're going to start on one knee. fergus was an absolute delight.

um, it was a joy and a real privilege to be his mum. fergus was planning a trip to walk hadrian's wall, along which the sycamore gap tree was nestled. but he never made it. yesterday, they gave me some news. i have some sort of cancer in my leg. he was diagnosed with primary bone cancer — osteosarcoma. your worst fear after your child dies is that he'll be forgotten. since fergus died, nature has been a constant source of strength to us — its power to regenerate and to console. take me to where this tree is going to go, then, ruth. this is the spot we chose. fergus came here every day. there's something about the story of the new life being created from the sycamore gap that made me think of all —

all the children affected by childhood cancer. they deserve a second chance of life. the original sycamore was 49ft tall, and there will be 49 saplings for communities to apply for. it's really satisfying seeing how well they've done actually. it was a little bit touch and go at the beginning. the trees will be going to projects such as this — tina's haven in easington on the durham coast. where do we think that the sapling might go then, eric? thinking about the entrance, because i think it could be really powerful. and my daughter tina was absolutely a unique human being. through her life, although she had issues with childhood trauma, addiction and her mental health, she was bold, she was strong, she was beautiful.

sue robson's daughter tina died in 2020, aged 35. following her death, sue wanted to create a wild sanctuary — a place of recovery for others dealing with the problems tina faced. when tina died, my hope died with her. and, equally, when that beautiful tree was cut down, you know, it was a violent, devastating act. but where the parallel came in was about those themes of hope, of nature, of recovery. having the tree, you know, such a significant symbol of hope is absolutely massive. to be planted next year, they're being called trees of hope for the people and communities they'll become part of. harriet bradshaw, bbc news. and we'rejoined now by alison freeman in hexham.

are being replaced with digital music systems. our reporter john maguire has been taking a drive down memory lane to look at how our musical motoring has changed over the years. archive: sir herbert austin, | as he now was, decided to put motoring within the reach of all and the baby austin, one of the most famous cars in the world, was born. once we were able to hear anything above the racket made by car engines and wind noise, designers and engineers set about putting the road trip to music. song: axel f by harold faltermeyer. from radio through various tape machines, then on to cds. when compact discs were first revealed for the home, they were just as magical as the motors. this new long—playing record looks very similar to a video disc we've shown you before. the surface is covered by a layer of transparent plastic, so you don't have to worry about grubby fingers 01’ even scratches. but, in today's world, music comes from clouds and notjust purple rain.

we actually scoured the new car availabilities and found that just none of them in the mainstream cars at least came with a cd player. and thatjust means, as far as we're concerned, it is the death of the in—car cd player. we're now in a world of apple carplay, android auto, bluetooth and cds just don't have a part in that any more. the apparent demise of the in—built cd player is disappointing for the music industry after a recent resurgence in disc sales. it's a kind of chicken and egg situation, so if you start to take cd players out of cars, you will encourage people to buy less cds, which is not something that we want to do when people are actually choosing to, you know, go back into the cd market. there was a time when getting your motor running and heading out on the highway required these — travel sweets, one of these, that's a road atlas, kids, and a whole floor full of cds,

or a container to keep them in. this one's done a few miles, i can tell you. oh, oasis! i wonder whatever happened to them. at his garage in somerset, jordan staples says the in—car entertainment is never a deal breaker, perhaps, though, just the ice—ing on the cake. there might be the odd time. maybe like more like older people maybe or something, they want to know. but younger people, i feel like they kind of know all about it, orjust know that they can get in and connect their phone and play their music. so it's not something i see happening much, to be honest. so you just plug a phone in? yeah. orjust like bluetooth, so you don't even need to plug it in. just literally go into your settings, click bluetooth, connect to it and that's it. you can play your music. easy as that. of course, these days you don't even need to press a button. play oasis. navigating to oasis centre. no. play oasis. now playing genesis. oh, forget it. just put blur on.

navigating to burton. 0h! i think i'll download a mindfulness podcast instead. john maguire, bbc news, somerset. i think that says more aboutjohn's use of tech and the tech itself. the good thing about having a cd you would get to know the albums inside out because you would rotate just a handful of the ban. now with endless choice and the kids want to play one thing and i want to play another, i don't feel like you get to know albums in the same way. let us know if you have huge affection for a cd in the car. i am sure many of you do. yes. second—hand cars are available. and second hand cds. only

the new cars don't have them. if it is still important to you at a second—hand car. i still have them. you still black one occasionally! time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm paul murphy—kasp. tfl is continuing to grapple with an ongoing cyber attack. it's affecting online services including the oyster photocard website which is currently unavailable. on tuesday around 100,000 zip cards under—16s will stop scanning on oyster card readers. they were due to expire this month but the ongoing disruption means customers cannot apply for new cards. tfl says it has written to parents and guardians of children affected to offer advice and support. the all england tennis clubs plans to expand the home of the wimbledon championships could be given the go ahead today. it wants to build 39 new courts on wimbledon park. city hall is set to decide whether planning permission should be granted but local groups

including save wimbledon park say the area will become a "a huge industrial tennis complex". a bench in honour of caroline flack will be unveiled later in north london aimed at preventing suicide. the late tv presenter took her own life in february 2020. the bench, by charity legend on the bench, will be unveiled at the tottenham community sports centre. over 3,500 seals now call the thames estuary home, according to the zoological society of london. it teamed up with the raf to carry out its latest seal survey, observing them from military helicopters. the charity says counting seals helps them to understand the health of the river. janet jackson will perform at the 02 this weekend in herfirst london concert in 13 years. the two—hour show is packed with elaborate costumes and some of her most famous songs, celebrating her 40—year career. her choreographer is from elephant and castle. it was janet jackson's together again music video that actually made me go, "i want to do. that's what i want to do."

i want to be a dancer and i also want to dance for her. like that was the start of the journey for me. so, to be here, you know, 27 years later, on the together again tour as a choreographer is a very full circle moment. let's take a look at the tubes now. on the district line we've got minor delays between wimbledon and edgware road. there are also minor delays on the hammersmith & city line. now onto the weather with kawser. hello there. good morning. well, after the wet and windy conditions of yesterday, today too starts off rather unsettled. we still have this met office yellow weather warning for the risk of heavy rain, valid until 9 o'clock this morning. but this rain will continue to clear further southwards as we head through the day and, by the afternoon, more in the way of drier weather, although there is still the chance of some scattered showers, some sunny spells as well, but colder conditions. temperatures only reaching 10 to 12 celsius, as we're drawing in this cold air all the way from the north. but overnight tonight it becomes dry with clear skies and a chilly night in store.

temperatures widely dipping to low single figures. there may even be a touch of frost in the outskirts. and, as we look ahead to the rest of this weekend, well, saturday itself is largely dry with high pressure, but this area of low pressure is arriving later on sunday and into monday, bringing with it some outbreaks of rain. but, for the most part, saturday is largely dry. some spells of sunshine. it will be cool, but the winds will be lighter. a cold night to come saturday night. dry to start sunday, but then rain to arrive later in the day. that's it for now, but there's plenty more on our website. i'm back with more in half an hour, goodbye.

good morning, welcome to breakfast with nina warhurst and charlie stayt. our headlines today. hurricane helene makes landfall in florida with officials warning of potentially catastrophic and unsurvivable storm surges. stop the violence, step back from the brink. sir keir starmer uses his first speech at the un general assembly, to call for an immediate ceasefire in lebanon. there are almost 200 flood warnings in place in england and wales, the rain is still coming down and people are anxiously looking at rising river levels. and those lively downpours will continue through the morning rush hour but it is an improving story, something brighter but colder for many later today and into tomorrow.

good morning. in sport, living the dream. celticjoin the elite of europe becoming the first scottish team to qualify for the main group stages of the women's champions league. and i am at the uk's last coal fired power station. this place closes down in the next couple of days. good morning, it's friday the 27th september. our main story. hurricane helene made landfall in the early hours of this morning, as a category four storm in the us state of florida. one person has been killed and more than 350,000 homes and businesses are currently without power. authorities say the hurricane registered winds of 140 miles per hour and brought huge storm surges. our north america correspondent david willis reports. hurricane helene touched down on florida's gulf coast bringing with it winds of around 130 miles an hour. officials had warned of potentially

catastrophic and unsurvivable coastal storms surges, in places the height of a two storey building. lashing rain proceeded helene's arrival, flooding streets and leaving more than half a million florida homes with out power. officials had pleaded with those in the path of the storm to heed mandatory evacuation orders. and for those still sheltering in their homes, to stay put. you need to be right now hunkering down. now is not the time to be going out, there's going to be streets that are flooded and will continue to flood all up and down the west coast of florida. so it's hazardous conditions right now, and please, do not be going outside until things settle down. some, however, chose to ignore the advice, prompting officials in the city of fort myers to navigate the area by boat and wade their way through waist deep floodwaters in order to check on those

who might be trapped. president biden promised the full support of the federal government in dealing with the effects of hurricane helene. we have search and rescue teams, medicalteams, power restoration teams, generators, water, food, on the ground and ready to support families throughout the coming days. let me say this. everyone needs to take it seriously. extremely seriously. satellite images plotting helene's destructive path prompted the closure of local schools and airports along with this worst—case scenario appeal for those who chose not to evacuate to write their name on their arm in marker pens so they could be identified by family members. 55 million people across the southern united states are expected to feel the effects of hurricane helene, and the us weather service is predicting the area will experience its worst flooding in more than a century. david willis, bbc news, los angeles.

we will stay with developments in the united states throughout the morning. for now, charlie has a round—up of the other stories of the day, keeping an eye on tensions around the middle east. there are growing calls for a ceasefire in lebanon, after israel's air force said its fighterjets hit around 220 hezbollah targets in the past day. lebanon's health ministry have said at least 92 people were killed in air strikes yesterday. sir keir starmer has called for an end to the conflict duirng his speech at the un general assembly. i call on israel and hezbollah, stop the violence, step back from the brink. we need to see an immediate ceasefire to provide space for a diplomatic settlement. and we are working with all partners to that end.

because further escalation serves no—one, it offers nothing but more suffering for innocent people on all sides. our middle east correspondent hugo bachega is in beirut. hugo, good morning to you. so many calls for a ceasefire in new york at the un, tell us what's happening on the un, tell us what's happening on the ground. the un, tell us what's happening on the round. ., the un, tell us what's happening on the ground-— the ground. yeah, charlie, good mornint. the ground. yeah, charlie, good morning- i _ the ground. yeah, charlie, good morning. ithink— the ground. yeah, charlie, good morning. i think there _ the ground. yeah, charlie, good morning. i think there was - the ground. yeah, charlie, good| morning. i think there was some the ground. yeah, charlie, good - morning. i think there was some hope yesterday that these diplomatic efforts could result in a ceasefire, i think today there is much more pessimism. it's very difficult to see how a ceasefire can be achieved at the moment because the israelis are saying that this offensive against hezbollah is going to continue with these intense widespread air strikes, there is also a possibility of an israeli ground invasion of south lebanon to try to destroy the infrastructure that has been created by hezbollah

to push fighters away from the border. and hezbollah here in lebanon here in lebanon have not given any signs that it is willing to back down, it will continue to fire rockets, air raid sirens fired this morning in the largest city in israel —— one of the largest cities in israel but no report of casualties. here in lebanon, hundreds of people have been killed, tens of thousands have been forced to flee their homes. the lebanese authorities have been appealing for an immediate ceasefire. the lebanese foreign minister at the united nations yesterday said that this country was facing a crisis that was threatening its very existence, and this crisis could get out of control. so all of these calls for the escalation so far unable to stop the escalation so far unable to stop the violence —— for de—escalation so far unable to stop the violence.

after his address at the un, the prime minister had a two hour dinner with us presidential candidate donald trump in new york. our political editor chris mason sent this report. hello from new york, where the prime minister has spent the last few days meeting world leaders at the un general assembly. but before heading back to the airport to fly back to the uk, a two hour dinner at trump tower, meeting the former president. alongside the prime minister, the foreign secretary, david lammy, who has previously been pretty disobliging about mr trump, calling him a racist and a neo—nazi sympathising sociopath. oh, to be a fly on the wall when those two men were talking. little detail from either side about precisely what was spoken about. intriguingly, the prime minister has not met the vice president, kamala harris, the democratic candidate. that wasn't possible because of diary commitments. he does hope to talk to her soon.

meanwhile flash flooding has caused damage to homes and businesses in parts of england, after another night of heavy rainfall. it comes just days after some areas experienced more than a month's worth of rainfall on monday, disrupting travel. simonjones is in shefford in bedfordshire this morning. morning, simon. ican morning, simon. i can see it is still raining. we spoke to you an hour ago, are the water level rising behind you?— behind you? yeah, there is a lot of concern because _ behind you? yeah, there is a lot of concern because the _ behind you? yeah, there is a lot of concern because the amount - behind you? yeah, there is a lot of concern because the amount of. behind you? yeah, there is a lot of| concern because the amount of rain that has come down already this morning and overnight after several days of some really torrential downpours. if we take a look at the river there, downpours. if we take a look at the riverthere, it downpours. if we take a look at the river there, it is very fast flowing, it has burst its banks in various places. residents tell me on monday, it actually reached its highest level ever and some homes

were flooded. they are hoping that's not going to happen today, but the local emergency response officer is out and about checking particularly on elderly residents, and it has been a similar story across much of the country over the past few days. in leicester last night, this road resembled a river and the relentless rain keeps on falling. some areas received more than a month's worth in a single day. in egham in surrey, the wind has been whipping up too, creating wild conditions. in birmingham, cars have been caught out. in selly oak, it's been a busy time for the emergency services helping rescue drivers. public transport has been doing its best to keep on running, but at birmingham new street station there have been delays and cancellations. the environment agency has this advice for anyone heading out. there will be a lot of water out on the roads and travel might be really difficult,

so we need them to make sure they pay attention to any emergency services. and later in the day we are expecting further rainfall in areas through the midlands. telford united football club says it's been deluged after a thunderstorm. it's appealing to fans to come and help dry out their flooded pitch. this nearby street shows any clean up is going to take some time. with rain falling onto already saturated ground, the warning is that there is more disruption ahead. overnight, there was an amber warning in place for rain, that expired at around 6am but it has been replaced by a much wider yellow warning for rain covering this area, the midlands, the whole of southern england and wales and that is in place until 9am so plenty more rain expected. the concern is even once

it stops raining, it feeds into rivers like this one and it could see the level go up even further. the local council have just opened a centre here in case people need to p0p centre here in case people need to pop in for a bit of warmth or a cup of tea and i can tell you standing here, that seems like quite a tempting offer at the moment. get a cu of tea, tempting offer at the moment. get a cup of tea. we _ tempting offer at the moment. get a cup of tea, we will— tempting offer at the moment. get a cup of tea, we will talk— tempting offer at the moment. get a cup of tea, we will talk to _ tempting offer at the moment. get a cup of tea, we will talk to you - cup of tea, we will talk to you later. the family of nicola bulley has been sharing publicly how they were impacted by the intense social media speculation over her disappearance. the 45—year—old mother—of—two went missing while walking her dog in january last year. the case received world—wide coverage and became the subject of online conspiracy theories by amateur internet detectives. when you experience something like this, you realise what a huge monster it can be, i guess. i was getting direct messages from people that i have never met. and you can't do anything about it. the treasury is reconsidering elements of labour's manifesto plan

to toughen up the abolition of non—dom tax status. it's understood there are concerns about how much money would be raised for the likes of school breakfast clubs and the nhs if rich foreigners leave the uk. our political correspondent helen catt is in westminster. this subject attracts a lot of attention. it's fundamentally about how you make sure rich people, non—non— status people, pay higher taxes, or pay in, what is happening now? —— non—dom status people. yes. now? -- non-dom status people. yes, that is a status — now? -- non-dom status people. yes, that is a status where _ now? -- non-dom status people. yes, that is a status where the _ now? —— non—dom status people. yes that is a status where the wealthy individual lives in the uk but their permanent home for tax purposes is abroad which means they only have to pay tax on the uk earnings. labour has said for many years that it was going to abolish that status but for trailing it so far ahead, the conservatives beat them to it and jeremy hunt announced in the budget earlier this year that he was going to abolish it and do a new regime

but he built some sweeteners into that regime which labour said they will scrap. the thing is treasury officials acknowledge that scrapping the concessions he built in might not actually raise any money because the idea behind them was to dissuade wealthy people from emigrating, and if there are small changes and to many of them emigrate, that would wipe out any savings. it understand that the treasury is looking at watering down or softening some of those although no decision has been made. the treasury is adamant that the non—dom status in general will still be abolished. the sentencing of two 13—year—old boys for the murder of shawn seesahai is expected to conclude today. the 19—year—old was killed with a machete in wolverhampton in november last year. the pair, who were 12 at the time, are the youngest convicted murderers since the killing ofjames bulger. a man has been arrested in connection with what's been described as an act of cyber—vandalism at most

of the biggest railway stations in england and scotland. british transport police say the man works for global reach technology which provides wi—fi services to network rail. passengers trying to access the wi—fi were diverted to a page that police say displayed islamaphobic messaging. the model naomi campbell has been banned from being a charity trustee for five years after a watchdog found charity funds were being mismanaged. misconduct included using charity money to pay for stays in luxury hotels and spa treatments. she said she was not the person "in control" of the charity. it's quarter past seven. everyone is talking about it, the rain, how is it looking, matt? it is talking about it, the rain, how is it looking, matt?— it looking, matt? it is getting betterfor— it looking, matt? it is getting betterfor a — it looking, matt? it is getting better for a while _ it looking, matt? it is getting better for a while at - it looking, matt? it is getting better for a while at least, i it looking, matt? it is getting i better for a while at least, there is a bit of good news but it has been rather grim. this was the scene in whitby

yesterday, and in the north lock —— north york moors, we have had 100 millimetres of rain in some places. the focus of the rain has been a bit further north in the last few hours, northern england, west midlands and wales, but we have still got rain around at the moment which is heading south again and in those areas worst hit earlier in the week. some lively thunderstorms clearing away from the south coast but some heavy rain in the midlands and east anglia, east anglia and the south will see rain on and off through the rush hour but it will ease away into the afternoon. sunny conditions elsewhere, a scattering of ship showers, so keep your umbrella and warm jacket because it is going to be a chilly day. eight or 9 degrees in the north of scotland, take a few degrees from that with the effect of the wind. some wintry showers in the mountains. on and off showers in northern ireland and some around the

coast of eastern parts of england, but in lad will be dry, brighter and a big improvement. but it will feel chilly. a cold night to come tonight, cloud and rain pushing into scotland later, lifting temperatures but before it arrives we could see temperatures below freezing. leading to a bright and a frosty start to the weekend, a few showers on saturday but wet and windy weather arriving in the south on sunday. listening carefully to that, matt saying that some places getting better. but there has been flash flooding since monday. we're joined now by caroline douglass from the environment agency. people will be waking up and hearing the news, how worried should they be? , ., ., ., ~ the news, how worried should they be? ., . ., be? good morning. we always need --eole be? good morning. we always need eo - le to be? good morning. we always need people to watch _ be? good morning. we always need people to watch out _ be? good morning. we always need people to watch out for _ be? good morning. we always need people to watch out for any - people to watch out for any rainfall, so i guess it is about

being aware of where any risks are in your area being aware of where any risks are in yourarea and being aware of where any risks are in your area and certainly if you wake up and you are looking to travel, look out for many road closures and warnings and heed the advice of emergency services and do not drive through flood water, its not drive through flood water, it's far too risky. it only takes 30 centimetres to flood your car. igrate centimetres to flood your car. we understand that part of the south—east will see lightning, 50 miles an hour when brief tornadoes. can you walk us through the parts of the country where the risks might be highest? —— 50 miles an hour wind and brief tornadoes. the highest? -- 50 miles an hour wind and brief tornadoes.— and brief tornadoes. the risks will be hithest and brief tornadoes. the risks will be highest where _ and brief tornadoes. the risks will be highest where there _ and brief tornadoes. the risks will be highest where there are - and brief tornadoes. the risks will - be highest where there are immediate rainfall places, but also the places that have had some rain this week, midlands, north of london and overnight, yorkshire receiving the highest totals, 70 to 80 millimetres. all of those areas need to look out because there will be a lot of water on the roadways, that people need to be aware of. and that

is going to be making its way into water courses at rivers so people need to be aware if they are walking near those areas, don't be near the edge, stay away. the water can be very fast flowing and very dangerous. keep your animals and children away from it as well because we don't want people falling in because we know there has been a real risk to life there in the past. increasingly the weather is becoming unpredictable, and as an agency, what can you do to mitigate against the fallout of this extreme weather? i think we know with climate change, the weather was going to become more extreme. we knew the rainfall totals would get higher and more intense and we are seeing that, notjust here but in europe last week is a good example, and in other areas across the world. this is what we have been expecting. what we need people to be aware of is what risk there is and what they can do about it. we have a lot of advice on the

gulf .uk website, and organisations such as nationalflood gulf .uk website, and organisations such as national flood forum which can help people —— the gov.uk website. we will ask people to sign up website. we will ask people to sign up to flood warnings on gov.uk so they know their immediate risk in they know their immediate risk in the area and know what they can do in their properties to protected from flooding in the future. ihihest from flooding in the future. what would ou from flooding in the future. what would you say — from flooding in the future. what would you say to _ from flooding in the future. what would you say to those _ from flooding in the future. what would you say to those who are looking outside and see warnings and saying, i need to get out, i'm going to chance it? i saying, i need to get out, i'm going to chance it?— to chance it? i would say, go for a walk but stay _ to chance it? i would say, go for a walk but stay away _ to chance it? i would say, go for a walk but stay away from _ to chance it? i would say, go for a walk but stay away from standing | walk but stay away from standing water, stay away from rivers, you are going to get wet. so take a brolly, but really take care and if you are not sure, stay home and safe and stay warm. you are not sure, stay home and safe and stay warm-— and stay warm. sound advice. underlining — and stay warm. sound advice. underlining the _ and stay warm. sound advice. underlining the advice - and stay warm. sound advice. underlining the advice on - and stay warm. sound advice. underlining the advice on the | and stay warm. sound advice. - underlining the advice on the gov.uk website and we will have updates with matt throughout the morning. the royal voluntary service have sent out an urgent call for more volunteer drivers after new research shows the scale of elderly people

missing medical appointments due to a lack of transport. the charity has found that nearly half of people over the age of 70 who don't drive have missed health care appointments due to a lack of transportation. of those people, nearly all of them have missed more than one appointment. and two thirds missed three or more. the study by the royal voluntary service found that missed appointments not only disrupts care for patients, but costs the nhs hundreds of millions of pounds every year. dorothy is one of the people who have benefitted from the volunteer drivers service. it's made a big difference to me because i used to get my legs, i've got ulcers, i used to get them dressed at home and then the criterium had changed so i had to go to the surgery to get them done. and i don't have any transport, so i got in touch with the voluntary, and they have been absolutely, all i can say truthfully, is they have been great. i get a good conversation

with the drivers and everybody has been really good. and it's reasonably priced, it's not a lot of money. and they're always on time. a ringing endorsement from dorothy! we're nowjoined by one of the volunteers, ruth orr, and the deputy chief executive of the royal voluntary service, sam ward. we will start with you, ruth. what does a day as a volunteer look like and how much of your time you have to give up?— and how much of your time you have tot-iveu? ., . to give up? you give as much time as ou can to give up? you give as much time as you can give. — to give up? you give as much time as you can give. so _ to give up? you give as much time as you can give, so each _ to give up? you give as much time as you can give, so each week— to give up? you give as much time as you can give, so each week i - to give up? you give as much time as you can give, so each week i give - you can give, so each week i give once or twice a week for me, other people can give much more. it's very much what suits you.— much what suits you. people like dorothy you _ much what suits you. people like dorothy you are _ much what suits you. people like dorothy you are seeing? - much what suits you. people like dorothy you are seeing? walk i much what suits you. people like dorothy you are seeing? walk usj dorothy you are seeing? walk us through the visit, who they are, what the chat looks like.- through the visit, who they are, what the chat looks like. yes, the coordinator— what the chat looks like. yes, the coordinator will _ what the chat looks like. yes, the coordinator will send _ what the chat looks like. yes, the coordinator will send me - what the chat looks like. yes, the coordinator will send me the i coordinator will send me the information and i contact the person, and we arrange a time for me to pick them up, and then i take

the winds will be lighter. a cold night to come saturday night. dry to start sunday, but then rain to arrive later in the day. i'm back with more in half an hour, but for now i'll hand you back to nina and charlie. goodbye. hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and nina warhurst. coal has been used to make electricity in the uk for more than 140 years, but the country's last coal fired plant will shut down for the final time on monday night. really time on monday night. is the end of an era. the uk will be the first g7 member to completely phase out coal from its electricity mix. our climate editorjustin rowlatt is at the ratcliffe—on—soar plant for us this morning. mixed emotions in the area, i would imagine, justin. mixed emotions in the area, i would imagine. justin-— imagine, justin. yes, there certainly — imagine, justin. yes, there certainly are. _ imagine, justin. yes, there certainly are. you - imagine, justin. yes, there certainly are. you join i imagine, justin. yes, there certainly are. you join me i imagine, justin. yes, there i certainly are. youjoin me here imagine, justin. yes, there - certainly are. youjoin me here at certainly are. you join me here at ratcliffe on soar�*s mighty turbine

hall. four giant turbines in here which can generate enough power for 2 million uk homes. coal has been the mainstay of uk electricity right from the beginning of the electricity era. as recently as 2012, almost half of uk power came from coal. that changed dramatically. yesterday, the government published some quite surprising new figures on renewable power. renewable power generated in the three months tojuly 52% of uk power. if you add in nuclear power, which is also low carbon, it takes to pick up who 69%, more than two thirds of uk power from low carbon sources, which explains why coal—fired stations like this can now close. take a look at theirs. you've almost certainly seen ratcliffe on soar power station before. it is right beside the m1,

just south of nottingham. these mighty cooling towers have been a landmark here in the east midlands for decades, but you don't normally get a view of them quite like this, do you? now, they will be around for the next couple of years, but they are slated for demolition. they're going to be blown up. in fact, the whole site is going to be cleared to be replaced with a zero carbon energy and technology park. new industries, newjobs for the east midlands. its closure marks the end of an era for the uk. coal made modern britain, it powered the industrial revolution, bringing jobs and wealth as well as keeping our homes warm and our lights on. but the boom couldn't last. plans to close less profitable pits spurred the miners strike in the mid '80s. the violent clashes failed to keep the pits open. it left a bitter legacy of unemployment and poverty in the area. there is a sense of grim resignation among the workers here.

yeah, the emotions are building as we're getting closer to the 30th of september, and we've seen the coal go in and we know there's no more coming in, so you know, that will we, won't we do one last winter? we're definitely not. this place used to be running most of the time, generating electricity for 2 million uk homes. it used to employ 850 people. now it's less than 200. and in the last few years, they've only fired the place up when the uk is really short on power. i think it's just a shame that obviously the power station is having to close. um, we've worked so hard to make it one of the cleanest. but obviously, given the age of the plant, it's probably about right for us to close and make room for more renewable energy. closing ratcliffe is an important step towards the government's target — fossil—free electricity by 2030. some analysts say it can't

be done in that time. and when you see the scale of this place, you get a sense of the size of the challenge it represents. going fossilfuel free will mean a big reduction in planet warming emissions, but it won't be popular with everyone. it will also mean more pylons, more solar farms, and more wind turbines across the country. you join me back in the turbine hall with the plant manager here. we were hearing from some of the employees, there are mixed emotions. people are upset to see this place go up to 57 years of operation.— years of operation. absolutely. mixed emotions _ years of operation. absolutely. mixed emotions is _ years of operation. absolutely. mixed emotions is the - years of operation. absolutely. mixed emotions is the right - years of operation. absolutely. l mixed emotions is the right thing for the _ mixed emotions is the right thing for the people are facing the prospect of leaving here. some people — prospect of leaving here. some people have worked here for 30, 40,

now that they are among the elite, the top 16 clubs on the continent and indeed they are the first scottish team to be in the group stage draw for the women's champions league, later today, thanks to their 2—0 win over vorskla poltava of ukraine. celtic were already leading from the first leg, and this was the moment, they wrapped things up. shannon mcgregor with the emphatic header, their second on the night, which meant the celebrations could begin. the players making sure they soaked up the moment with the fans. shows what it meant to them all. and the head coach saying she couldn't explain the excitement to be in the elite i6 clubs in europe. there were also victories on the night for manchester city and arsenal, who booked their places in the group stages, but it was celtic who broke, new ground for scottish football. we've got the confidence and at half time to know that we can do this. and, yeah, i think the second half we were really, really good. just crazy. like, two weeks ago ijust signed. so to now be playing in the champions league, scored a goal and really good for scottish football to have a team now in the group stage of the champions league. and i'm just delighted that it's us that's managed to do it. now, spare a thought

for qarabag — a team from azer—baijan — in the men's europa league. they were staying in stratford, east london, to face tottenham. but road and rail disruption meant a six—milejourney took over 2.5 hours. they arrived late, and so kick off had to be put back. they then missed a penalty and loads of chances and lost 3—0. the travel chaos around north london was matched on the pitch, as just seven minutes in, spurs defender radu dragusin got caught napping and was sent off, as he tried to make amends. but despite playing for most of the match a player down, tottenham were still far too strong, with summer signing dominic solankey completing the victory. next, a milestone moment in malmo for rangers, as they started their europa league campaign, with an impressive 2—0 win in sweden. the tone was set from the start, as they took the lead in the first couple of minutes. bajrami adding the finishing touch. their second came late on. ross mccausland, with this fine finish, to give phillipe clement's side theirfirst ever win on swedish soil. now, the america's cup is the big prize in sailing, and is said to be the oldest competition in international sport, dating back 173 years. and once again, sir ben ainslee is trying to win the trophy for the first time, for the nation

that first hosted it. and they are one step away from having that chance. ainslee and the ineos britannia crew are level with italy's luna rossa after day i, of what is effectively the semi finals — the series of races that will decide who goes through to challenge for the actual america's cup next month. so it's 1—1, and it's the first to seven with emirates new zealand, the defending champions, who await the winners in the final. the next race is against the italians and is tomorrow. now, success for great britian this morning in china, in the world triathlon series, as alex yee, the olympic champion, returned to his best to beat his great rival. the paris 2024 gold medalist had admitted to feeling really mentally tired, after recent defeats to new zealander hayden wilde in london and chicago, but early today, it didn't show, as yee produced a master class with a storming run to finish to win by a huge margin, 46 seconds,

ahead of leo bergere of france. wilde was nowhere to be seen. and a second place as well this morning for beth potter, in the women's race just a short time ago with taylor bronze taking bronze. you may have been distracted by those bikes. it is to produce power, they get extra power. they have static bikes. it is perfectly legal. to create electricity? energy. pedal power challenge. 0k stock didn't know that. —— 0k. power challenge. 0k stock didn't know that. —— ok. i didn't know that. first time i have seen it. the number of stranded dolphins and porpoises on beaches across merseyside has drastically gone up, a marine life rescue charity has warned. volunteer medics at british

divers marine life rescue provide medical care for beached animals until they can be safely released, as our reporter, molly brewer, has been finding out. dolphins, porpoises, seals, turtles and even whales. these are just some of the creatures the british divers marine life rescue in the north west have tended to in recent years. these marine medics are trained in health assessment, first aid and rescue techniques, and today they're in the middle of a training exercise. three, lift. we fill it full of water to replicate the size and weight of the real thing when we're training the guys up and doing refreshers like today. so it would easily take eight adults to lift that comfortably. the team used specialist equipment and practice first aid on the replica as if it was a real rescue. we've began the first aid, which is essentially to keep the dolphin cool, monitor its breathing, lubricate its eyes and monitor

all its vital signs while feeding that back to head office. and the work that these guys do is more important than ever. the charity says they're the busiest they've ever been. there's always been porpoise that have washed up, the odd one or two, but not with the frequency that it's happening now. the graph of how busy we are increases every year. it's hard to say whether it's an increase due to climate change, is it an increase due to the fact that people become more aware of what we do, and they know who to call? the thing is, a lot of people don't know we exist. i probably didn't know we existed until about three years ago when i found an injured seal on crosby beach. these guys turned up, medics, who are you? i didn't know who they were. that's how i became one. the organisation trains over 1,000 volunteers a year nationwide but the likelihood is it's not these medics that will come across the stranded marine life. it's members of the public. if you do come across one, keep your distance, ring bdmlr,

which is the british divers marine life rescue. so if you find something on the beach, don't go near it. don't start poking and prodding and taking photos. that is the public's first instinct. "0h, let's go and have a look, let's take a photograph, i've got to stroke the dolphin." no, get on the phone, ring the correct people, get us guys out. molly brewer, bbc news. lots of attention on the weather, there always is, isn't? today for certain parts of the country worried about flooding in some places. yes. it has been — about flooding in some places. yes. it has been a _ about flooding in some places. yes. it has been a horrendous _ about flooding in some places. jazz it has been a horrendous week for about flooding in some places. 19:3 it has been a horrendous week for of us. this is from our weather watcher in the shetlands. there are a few shower counts around and it sums up what is heading to all of us later today. sunny spells developed widely. still a few showers. the downside, it will feel colder as a

northerly wind develops. 0n the satellite you can see what is going on. there are the clear skies i mentioned. here is the cloud which has brought a huge amount of rain over the last 24, 36 hours. the rain will be on and off through the morning till lunchtime grant early afternoon in the far south and east anglia. the brighter skies as we go through the morning and early afternoon. showers draped around the coast. showers in scotland will be wintry over the higher ground. temperatures eight, 9 degrees. feeling colder in the breeze and out of the sun shine as well. as the low pressure pushes away, follow the lines back from the arctic. colder air with us all. some of the coldest will be in the east it will make for a chilly night tonight. the showers will continue around some coasts, some drifting into north wales and

the midlands. a bit more cloud into scotland and northern ireland with outbreaks of rain. before that arrives a greater chance of a frost tonight, certainly in the air. in the countryside further said there could be some on the grass and cows thing tomorrow. england and wales, are welcome sunny, dry start. if you shower clouds building up in the north and west. a lot more cloud for scotland and northern ireland. even here while there will be some showers but there will be brighter ones as well. another chilly day with temperatures around 11 to 15. it does mean another cold night saturday into sunday. not what we want to see as we see sunday start, a deep area of low pressure starting to push its way in. it will be a dry and bright start for many. the best of the weather will be across parts of the weather will be across parts of scotland. across ireland, wales were parts of southern england we will see when developing widely with

when strengthening. the area of low pressure will spread across england and wales as we go through sunday night into monday. again falling on saturated ground. it will move into the east for the start of next week. any further rain is not wanted. at least we have a dry spell to come in the first half of next week. back to you both. the first half of next week. back to ou both. :. ~ the first half of next week. back to ou both. :, ,, i. a 20 year—old from corby says he feels on top of the world after winning the world scooter championships in italy. jayden sharman was born with a club foot and started riding as part of his recovery from an operation at the age of six. he's been speaking to our reporter, james burridge. hi, my name is jayden sharman.

i'm 20 years old and i am the scooter world champion. i was born with a club foot and basically where it's just pointed inwards and i had to have an operation at six just to get it back to normal. and they took a tendon out, took a lot of things out, which made it a lot weaker than it should be. came out of the hospital and was like, i want to ride my scooter. so i was at an outdoor skate park at eight years old, and then it reallyjust sort of grew from there. i think once i got into it, you realise actually how difficult it is and how dangerous it can be. and that's what excited me. i think the adrenaline part of it, the speed, the height. um, yeah. just the, the fear that something can go wrong. but if it doesn't, it's just so achieving to land a new trick or, i don't know, just [and a new skill. jaden started competing when he was eight, turned pro at 13, left school at 16 and in the space of 12 months became both the uk and european champion. then, at this month's world championships in italy, he went one better. it was very nerve—racking, but that always produces the craziest

adrenaline rush, so you just sort of like nervous to do it. you know, the moment i knew i was a world champion, it was just so much weight just left my shoulders. it was all the hard work, just sort of like was there in that moment. and itjust, i don't know, it just felt so fulfilling. um, i neverfelt anything like it before, but, yeah, it's something i'll treasure forever. so, jaden, tell me about the scooter. i mean, how much does it weigh? —— i mean, how much does it weigh for a start? um, this weighs in, i think 3kgs. and is it expensive? if you're for people buying this kind of thing, what would. what would something like this cost? um, i'd say this would probably come in around like £600. you can get a full set up for like £100 minimum. because for a lot of people watching this, you know, they teach their children on these when they're like two or three. and here you are in your 20s and you're now a world champion. it's come a long way, the scooter, hasn't it?

yeah, it definitely has. my goal is to build the sport as well, because i think a lot of people don't know about it, and a lot of people don't know the possibilities that, you know, you can start from so little with doing so simple tricks. and you can grow to being the world champion that i am today, which is crazy to say, but it's all possible with some dedication and hard work. that is impressive, thatjump. it feels a good time to start to talk about the need. warning if you haven't had your breakfast yet. chef rick stein has spent the last 50 years enjoying some of the best cuisine from around the world. his tv shows and recipe books have taken us on gastronomical tours of istanbul, france and mexico. in his latest series, rick travelled the length and breadth of the uk, sampling the best food and produce, and to discover the human stories behind them. let's take a look. to go with the meat, he's making a mushroom confit using the tallow or fat from the deer. and into that, a few shallots and a little bit of thyme. a little bit of garlic in there as well. i mean, i'd never have thought of using actually the animal fat

from the beast to cook it in, but of course it makes sense. i always got taught, the worst bits are the best bits. the worst bits, i shall note that down! kevin foraged these amazing looking mushrooms yesterday. he calls them dryad's saddle, but i know them as pheasant back. these mushrooms are going to absorb all that tallow and just get really greasy and nice. i love the way you say "greasy and nice." well, let's be honest, it is! rickjoins us now. why was that? what were you cooking? i couldn't see. it why was that? what were you cooking? i couldn't see-— i couldn't see. it was a mushroom dish, i couldn't see. it was a mushroom dish. was — i couldn't see. it was a mushroom dish. was it? _ i couldn't see. it was a mushroom dish. was it? i— i couldn't see. it was a mushroom dish, was it? ijust _ i couldn't see. it was a mushroom dish, was it? ijust caught - i couldn't see. it was a mushroom dish, was it? i just caught the - i couldn't see. it was a mushroom j dish, was it? ijust caught the last dish, was it? i 'ust caught the last bit. we dish, was it? ijust caught the last bit. we started _ dish, was it? ijust caught the last bit. we started to _ dish, was it? ijust caught the last bit. we started to immediately - dish, was it? ijust caught the last| bit. we started to immediately talk about food when _ bit. we started to immediately talk about food when you _ bit. we started to immediately talk about food when you came - bit. we started to immediately talk about food when you came in. - bit. we started to immediately talk about food when you came in. we l bit. we started to immediately talk i about food when you came in. we like it on breakfast because we'll start to think we going to have the

could be given the go ahead today. it wants to build 39 new courts on wimbledon park. city hall is set to decide whether planning permission should be granted but local groups including save wimbledon park say the area will become "a huge industrial tennis complex". a bench in honour of caroline flack will be unveiled later in north london aimed at preventing suicide. the late tv presenter took her own life in february 2020. the bench, by charity legend on the bench, will be unveiled at the tottenham community sports centre. let's take a look at the tubes now. on the district line we've got minor delays between wimbledon and edgware road. now onto the weather. after a cloudy and wet morning, this afternoon will be mostly dry but still the chance of the odd shower. highs of 13 degrees. there's plenty more on our website, including more on an exhibition at a west london hospital which captures the reality of the delivery room. i'm back with more in half an hour.

good morning, welcome to breakfast with nina warhurst and charlie stayt. our headlines today. hurricane helene makes landfall in florida with officials warning of potentially catastrophic and unsurvivable storm surges. there are almost 200 flood warnings in place in england and wales, the rain is still coming down and people

are anxiously watching the levels of the river and part of the m5 near bristol has been shut in both directions because there is so much water on the road. whilst there will be further rain through the morning and again later on sunday, we actually have something drier to look forward to over the next couple of days. i will have all of the details. stop the violence, step back from the brink. sir keir starmer uses his first speech at the un general assembly, to call for an immediate ceasefire in lebanon. nicola bulley�*s partner speaks in detail for the first time about her disappearance and the impact of social media speculation on him and his family. when you experience something like this, you realise what a huge monster it can be, i guess. petrol and diesel prices are at their lowest for three years. i'll be looking at what's driving costs down and whether there'll be more price cuts ahead.

good morning, it's friday the 27th september. our main story. hurricane helene made landfall in the early hours of this morning, as a category four storm in the us state of florida. one person has been killed and more than 350,000 homes and businesses are currently without power. authorities say the hurricane registered winds of more than 130 miles per hour and brought huge storm surges. our north america correspondent david willis reports. hurricane helene touched down on florida's gulf coast bringing with it winds of around 130 miles an hour. officials had warned of potentially catastrophic and unsurvivable coastal storms surges, in places the height of a two storey building. lashing rain proceeded helene's arrival, flooding streets and leaving more than half a million florida homes without power.

it was very scary. you know, it was coming in very, very fast, but steady across the island, and then all of a sudden, you know, it was outside the sandbags. we had prepared but we heard a big bang and the garage door caved in and the water came rushing into the house like a giant stream. so we grabbed the dogs and ran as quickly as we could with just what we had and our dogs and that was it. officials had pleaded with those in the path of the storm to heed mandatory evacuation orders. and for those still sheltering in their homes, to stay put. you need to be right now hunkering down. now is not the time to be going out, there's going to be streets that are flooded and will continue to flood all up and down the west coast of florida. so it's hazardous conditions right now, and please,

do not be going outside until things settle down. some, however, chose to ignore the advice, prompting officials in the city of fort myers to navigate the area by boat and wade their way through waist deep floodwaters in order to check on those who might be trapped. president biden promised the full support of the federal government in dealing with the effects of hurricane helene. we have search and rescue teams, medicalteams, power restoration teams, generators, water, food, on the ground and ready to support families throughout the coming days. let me say this. everyone needs to take it seriously. extremely seriously. satellite images plotting helene's destructive path prompted the closure of local schools and airports along with this worst—case scenario appeal for those who chose not to evacuate to write their name on their arm in marker pens so they could be identified by family members.

55 million people across the southern united states are expected to feel the effects of hurricane helene, and the us weather service is predicting the area will experience its worst flooding in more than a century. david willis, bbc news, los angeles. charlie has a round—up of the day's other stories, we begin with some quite extreme weather in the uk. 66 flood warnings are in place across england this morning, after another night of heavy rainfall. travel has been disrupted, with the m5 in gloucestershire closed between junction 14 and 16. homes and businesses have sustained damage from the severe weather. simonjones is in shefford in bedfordshire this morning. simon, the picture behind you tells the story, really. it

simon, the picture behind you tells the story. really-— the story, really. it does, because normally you _ the story, really. it does, because normally you would _ the story, really. it does, because normally you would be _ the story, really. it does, because normally you would be able - the story, really. it does, because normally you would be able to - the story, really. it does, becausel normally you would be able to walk right along this path along the side of the river. you cannot today, because look at that, the sheer amount of water that has come down in recent days, and it is still raining this morning. the river is flowing very quickly and i can tell you that anxiety is growing here. a lot of people coming out this morning, looking out of their homes, seeing the level of the river. there are more than 60 flood warnings in place across england and wales reading flooding is expected, 120 flood alerts meaning flooding is possible. part of the m5 near bristol closed because there is so much water of the road and it has been a story like this for the past few days. in leicester last night, this road resembled a river and the relentless rain keeps on falling. some areas received more than a month's worth in a single day. in egham in surrey, the wind has

been whipping up too, creating wild conditions. in birmingham, cars have been caught out. in selly oak, it's been a busy time for the emergency services helping rescue drivers. public transport has been doing its best to keep on running, but at birmingham new street station there have been delays and cancellations. the environment agency has this advice for anyone heading out. there will be a lot of water out on the roads and travel might be really difficult, so we need them to make sure they pay attention to any emergency services. and later in the day we are expecting further rainfall in areas through the midlands. telford united football club says it's been deluged after a thunderstorm. it's appealing to fans to come and help dry out their flooded pitch. this nearby street shows any clean up is going to take some time. with rain falling onto

already saturated ground, the warning is that there is more disruption ahead. this morning the emergency planning officerfrom the local this morning the emergency planning officer from the local council has been out and about going between the houses checking particularly on elderly people that they are ok. they have opened up the community centre here so people can go in for a cup of coffee and if they are concerned, chat about the situation. an amber warning for the rain that was in place overnight has passed but a yellow warning is in place so much of southern england, the midlands and wales, so we are certainly not over the worst yet. thank you, simon, and we will have all the weather with matt in a few minutes. there are growing calls for a ceasefire in lebanon, after israel's air force said its fighterjets hit around 220 hezbollah targets in the past day. lebanon's health ministry have said at least 92 people were killed in air strikes yesterday.

sir keir starmer has called for an end to the conflict duirng his speech at the un general assembly. i call on israel and hezbollah, stop the violence, step back from the brink. we need to see an immediate ceasefire to provide space for a diplomatic settlement. and we are working with all partners to that end. because further escalation serves no—one, it offers nothing but more suffering for innocent people on all sides. our middle east correspondent hugo bachega has the latest from beirut. i think there was some hope yesterday that these diplomatic efforts could result in a ceasefire, i think today there is much more pessimism. it's very difficult to see how a ceasefire can be achieved at the moment because the israelis are saying that this offensive against hezbollah is going to continue with these intense widespread air strikes,

there is also a possibility of an israeli ground invasion of south lebanon to try to destroy the infrastructure that has been created by hezbollah to push fighters away from the border. and hezbollah here in lebanon here in lebanon have not given any and hezbollah here in lebanon have not given any signs that it is willing to back down, it will continue to fire rockets at isreal, air raid alerts sounded this morning in the city of haifa, one of the largest cities in israel but no report of casualties. here in lebanon, there's a lot of pressure on hospitals, public services, shelters, hundreds of people have been killed, tens of thousands have been forced to flee their homes. the lebanese authorities have been appealing for an immediate ceasefire. the lebanese foreign minister at the united nations yesterday said that this country was facing a crisis that was threatening its very existence, and this crisis could get out of control.

so all of these calls for de—escalation so far unable to stop the violence. during his visit to the united states, the prime minister also met with presidential candidate donald trump. the pair had a two hour dinner where they discussed the longstanding friendship between the uk and the us, and the importance of continuing to develop the partnership. sir keir starmer was unable to visit democratic candidate kamala harris due to "diary challenges". the treasury is reconsidering elements of labour's manifesto plan to toughen up the abolition of non—dom tax status. it's understood there are concerns about how much money would be raised if rich foreigners leave the uk, when it's been earmarked for the nhs and school breakfast clubs. "non—dom" describes a uk resident whose permanent home or domicile for tax purposes is outside britain.

a man has been arrested in connection with what's been described as an act of cyber—vandalism at most of the biggest railway stations in england and scotland. british transport police say the man works for global reach technology which provides wi—fi services to network rail. passengers trying to access the wi—fi were diverted to a page that police say displayed islamaphobic messaging. the sentencing of two 13—year—old boys for the murder of shawn seesahai is expected to conclude today. the 19—year—old was killed with a machete in wolverhampton in november last year. our midlands correspondent, phil mackie, is outside nottingham crown court. good morning, phil. take us through what will happen in court today. morning, charlie. at 11am, the boys will be brought into court where mrs

justice triples will tell them the minimum amount of time they will serve after being convicted of murder after a trial this year. shawn seesahai was 19 years old, originally from the caribbean island of anguilla, in the uk for treatment after suffering a detached retina in basketball game. there was a confrontation in a park with ease to 12—year—old boys. we don't know what caused it, it was certainly a trivial incident, they produce this machete, and kicked, beaten and stabbed him to death, he died where he fell in the park and the machete was found under one of the boys bed the next day, about a foot and a half long. the boys blamed each other in the trial but the jury found they had carried out the murder together. shawn seesahai's murder together. shawn seesa hai's family murder together. shawn seesahai's family will not be here in court today because they cannot afford to come because they spent all their money coming overfor the come because they spent all their money coming over for the trial, they will be watching by video link.

yesterday in evicting statements they will —— in evicting statement they will —— in evicting statement they talked about the devastation caused by his death. the boys were 12 when they were convicted of this so this makes them the youngest convicted killers in this country since the murderers ofjames bolger in 1993. since the murderers of james bolger in 1993. ., ~ , ., since the murderers of james bolger in 1993. :, , , :, , since the murderers of james bolger in 1993. ., ~ y . here's matt with the weather. good morning. it has been a torrid week, some parts of southern england have had record rainfall but the focus has been in northern england and northern ireland recently, in particular. just inland on the north york moors we have had a month of rainfall since wednesday, a little bit more on the tops of the hills. the rain has been shifting south overnight, and ifi the rain has been shifting south overnight, and if i show you the radar chart, the rain had cleared

away from those worst affected yesterday but we have lively downpours through the midlands, east anglia and the south—east. outbreaks of rain coming and going in these areas, taking us to the rest of the morning. the skies are brightening through the morning through wales and the midlands and the south—west. it may take until early afternoon, part of east anglia and the south—east before we see sunshine appear. but there will be a few showers, through the day in the north of scotland, this afternoon they could be wintry over higher ground and temperature only eight or 9 degrees with the strength of the wind coming from the north—westerly direction, so it will feel cooler particularly when it is wet. nowhere nearas particularly when it is wet. nowhere near as wet in the south, most having a dry and bright afternoon evenif having a dry and bright afternoon even if it does feel a bit chillier. a cold nights to come tonight, a few showers around the coast, more cloud and outbreaks of rain into the west and outbreaks of rain into the west and north of scotland later, but there could be a bit of frost before that appears. cold further south.

saturday dry and bright with a few showers for many. thank you, that. the partner of nicola bulley has described the online obsession with her disappearance as a "monster" that got out of control. the 45—year—old mother—of—two went missing while walking her dog in january last year. her disappearance received world—wide coverage and became the subject of online conspiracy theories by amateur internet detectives. nicola's family has shared publicly for the first time since her body was found how they were impacted by the intense social media speculation over her case. emergency. hello, my partner left this morning at 8:30 to take my two children to school, and the dog went with her. and then the school's just rung me to say that they've just found the dog, somebody found the dog, and my partner's put her phone down on a bench and the dog lead. nicky would usually get back after taking the girls and walking willow.

when i got there, got handed willow and like, then i was handed nicky's phone and i'm just sort of stood there like, what? what? i wasjust sat on my desk and i got a phone call from paul, and he was panicky and frantic, and he was like, "something's happened, something strange has happened." we got a phone call, didn't we, - from louise to say nicky's missing. we drove over as quick as we could to paul's, and i said, "i've got to go to st michael's." i've got to try and help. there was a possibility that she'd entered the water. she'd sought time alone and left the area. there was a possibility that she was ill or injured on land. but the biggest thing was the dog, willow. she was off the lead, there was nothing to keep her in that location physically,

but she wouldn't leave the area between the bench and the water. in my mind she was in the water. i was really hoping we'd hear something before dark. somebody will be in touch with you there, 0k? we didn't sleep much. no. we just kept saying, where are you? yeah. on the day that i took over the case, i went to meet the family. at no point was paul ever a suspect. he'd not left the house until he was contacted by the school. she just seemed like a normal person, like myself. it could be me, like, i walk my dogs. i was then trying to understand what had happened, why it had happened. there was an update a couple of days ago... on tiktok i started to do the lives and we got over a thousand, sometimes nearly two, so you could see it escalating. it can absolutely spread the word. there's two billion users worldwide. and when i did that first video, it got three million views. - social media, nicky used it more than i did because she used to sell

stuff so she would do live videos. hello, good afternoon. i hope everybody's having a lovely saturday. when you experience something like this, you realise what a huge monster it can be, i guess. lancashire police say they believe that... it was all over social media. it was on the television everywhere. speaking german. it was almost as if people didn't want to believe the police. ijust had a message come up. from a lady referring to a video of me dancing during lockdown, i and she sent me a message saying "wow, they say life goes on, . but dancing around your kitchen like that already." and i was like, what the hell? awful things started to be said. i was getting direct messages from people that i've never met, and you can't do anything about it. we had arranged for a press conference in order to try

and negate the conspiracy theorists. as soon as she was reported missing, based on a number of specific vulnerabilities that we were made aware of, nicola was graded as high risk. ijust remember watching it and hearing about - the vulnerabilities and looking at you and thinking, _ "oh, god, media are not. going to leave that there." we had to do something. we spoke to the family, we came up with a form of words with their agreement, and by that i don't mean they were happy about this, they absolutely weren't. "it doesn't have to say that, it doesn't have to say this," and then before we knew it, it had just gone. we were still working on it and then they'd released it. lancashire police are facing a growing backlash for revealing that she'd had ongoing struggles with alcohol and the menopause. what would nicky think of all this? i mean, she'd be, bless her, she would be mortified. for anyone joining now, _ lancashire police said this morning,

"you may be aware of police activity around the river to reports - of a body in the river wyre." at the river bank i could see the divers in the river with what i now know is nicky. so we put a tent up and i sat with nicky in that tent for quite a long time, until she was taken to the hospital. nicky, she was so beautiful, she didn't know it. as far as nicky, going missing and the mystery to it, i guess, it was just an accident. it doesn't always have to be something sinister linked to something that happens. sometimes bad thingsjust happen. cheers, mummy, i miss you,j and i wish you could be here. i still struggle talking about nicky in the past sense. i feel very blessed that we found each other.

we're joined by rachel lob—levyt, who's the director of that documentary, the search for nicola bulley. thank you forjoining us this morning. just explain where you begin with a project like that, because it's so interesting to hear from the family, i don't recall them speaking so openly at any point during the case. but also to hear the other side from the people on the other side from the people on the social media platforms. yeah, well, the production _ the social media platforms. yeah, well, the production company - the social media platforms. yeah, well, the production company i i well, the production company i worked with to make this documentary, they obviously felt that it was a story with a lot of public interest to try and explore what happened at this watershed but also very strange moment when the case has been covered extensively. and they approached nicola's family, and after discussions about what the documentary would be and what their participation would look like, they decided to take part. it participation would look like, they decided to take part.—

decided to take part. it felt like a moment, decided to take part. it felt like a moment. the _ decided to take part. it felt like a moment, the social _ decided to take part. it felt like a moment, the social media - decided to take part. it felt like a l moment, the social media aspect. decided to take part. it felt like a i moment, the social media aspect. we hear from moment, the social media aspect. we hearfrom some of moment, the social media aspect. we hear from some of the tiktok uses in your documentary. i had never seen a crime case like that before when they had been so much presence. yes. they had been so much presence. yes, an extraordinary— they had been so much presence. i9: an extraordinary amount of interest online, people posting about it, i think at the time the bbc said there were 270 billion posts on the case overall. but people a chilly coming to the scene and themselves trying to the scene and themselves trying to investigate the case, i don't think that had ever happened before —— people were a chilly coming to the scene. -- people were a chilly coming to the scene-— the scene. even as outsiders, i think a lot _ the scene. even as outsiders, i think a lot of _ the scene. even as outsiders, i think a lot of people _ the scene. even as outsiders, i think a lot of people were i the scene. even as outsiders, i i think a lot of people were angered by what they saw as people jumping onto the story, i can only imagine what that might have felt like, you know this because you interviewed the family, what that felt like for them in that moment. i the family, what that felt like for them in that moment.— the family, what that felt like for them in that moment. i think you see in the documentary, _ them in that moment. i think you see in the documentary, you _ them in that moment. i think you see in the documentary, you know, i them in that moment. i think you see in the documentary, you know, for i in the documentary, you know, for them at that time as they talk about during the film, they were just focused on trying to find nicola.

and trying to keep together and look after their children. and trying to keep together and look aftertheir children. so and trying to keep together and look after their children. so i think, yes, it was obviously extraordinary and strange to be in the middle of all of that but i think as they say the documentary, their focus was trying to find at that time. your focus was _ trying to find at that time. your focus was very _ trying to find at that time. your focus was very much _ trying to find at that time. your focus was very much on - trying to find at that time. your focus was very much on letting them tell their story, that's the point on this occasion, giving them a voice which presumably they felt like, that was taken away from them during that period of time.— during that period of time. yeah, the ut during that period of time. yeah, they put out _ during that period of time. yeah, they put out a — during that period of time. yeah, they put out a statement - during that period of time. yeah, they put out a statement to i during that period of time. yeah, they put out a statement to say l during that period of time. yeah, i they put out a statement to say that it took them a long time to decide whether this was the right thing to do. but herface whether this was the right thing to do. but her face and whether this was the right thing to do. but herface and name had become so recognisable at that time in a very short period of time, but they felt, you know, perhaps other people don't really know who she is, this is an opportunity for them to talk about it from their perspective and put a cross who nicola really is. and as the investigation concluded,

starts off rather unsettled. we still have this met office yellow weather warning for the risk of heavy rain, valid until 9 o'clock this morning. but this rain will continue to clear further southwards as we head through the day and, by the afternoon, more in the way of drier weather, although there is still the chance of some scattered showers, some sunny spells as well, but colder conditions. temperatures only reaching 10 to 12 celsius, as we're drawing in this cold air all the way from the north. but overnight tonight it becomes dry with clear skies and a chilly night in store. temperatures widely dipping to low single figures. there may even be a touch of frost in the outskirts. and, as we look ahead to the rest of this weekend, well, saturday itself is largely dry with high pressure, but this area of low pressure is arriving later on sunday and into monday, bringing with it some outbreaks of rain. but, for the most part, saturday is largely dry. some spells of sunshine. it will be cool, but the winds will be lighter. a cold night to come saturday night. dry to start sunday, but then rain to arrive later in the day. that's it for now, but there's plenty more on our website, including behind—the—scenes of an exhibition at a west london hospital which captures the reality

an average of 1.40 a litre. the rac calculates that means you could fill up a typical family petrol car for under £70. take a look at this graph to see where we've come from in terms of the price, this spike here in the summer of 2022 was caused by the outbreak of the war in ukraine and a surge in global energy prices. injuly, two years ago petrol was at a record average of 1.92 a litre. a similar trend for diesel but as wholesale prices have tumbled, we've seen that mirrored at the pump ? prices steadily falling to these three—year lows. so good news for drivers but the rac, other motorist groups and the regulator the competition and markets authority have all been critical of supermarkets recently —? which sell the majority of petrol and diesel in the uk ? saying they haven't previously been passing lower wholesale prices

onto customers ? is that changing? i think we are definitely in a better— i think we are definitely in a better place with fuel prices and have _ better place with fuel prices and have greater transparency as a result _ have greater transparency as a result of — have greater transparency as a result of the temporary scheme where 14, result of the temporary scheme where 14. 15_ result of the temporary scheme where 14. 15 of— result of the temporary scheme where 14. 15 of the _ result of the temporary scheme where 14,15 of the biggest retailers are providing — 14,15 of the biggest retailers are providing pricing. we are analysing the data _ providing pricing. we are analysing the data i— providing pricing. we are analysing the data. i think there is always good _ the data. i think there is always good to— the data. i think there is always good to go further. we would expect retailers _ good to go further. we would expect retailers to _ good to go further. we would expect retailers to do more. it is important to shop around for the best price — important to shop around for the best rice. :, important to shop around for the best price-— important to shop around for the best rice. :, , ,, :, , best price. one of the big unknowns is what will — best price. one of the big unknowns is what will happen _ best price. one of the big unknowns is what will happen with _ best price. one of the big unknowns is what will happen with fuel - best price. one of the big unknowns is what will happen with fuel duty. l is what will happen with fuel duty. we have the budget coming up at the end of october and there is speculation about whether the temporary 5p cut will be reversed. we will find out on the 30th of october when the chancellor makes that decision. lots of comments from

exciting as our spare time gaps. thank you. a year to the day since the sycamore gap tree was cut down, the national trust is offering communities across the uk the chance to re—plant the saplings rescued from the site. there was an outpouring of anger when the tree, which stood in a dip next to hadrian's wall in northumberland was felled with a chainsaw. now, after nurturing the young twigs and seeds from the site, 49 saplings are being offered. our reporter harriet bradshaw has more. the iconic sycamore gap tree. it was shocking. it was devastating. it felt really brutal. but, a small team managed to salvage seeds and twigs, which they successfully sowed and grafted in a secret greenhouse. this tree has been given a second chance at life. so, chris, the last time i was here, i could hold these seedlings in my hands. what's happened to them? well, they've grown a little bit. here they are.

0h, crikey! look at that. that one's taller than me. and i'm five foot five. yeah, they've done pretty well. how many have you got? we've got roughly about 100 at the moment, but we've got a few more seedlings coming on as well. and there's about nine or so grafts and budded plants. you can't help but feel hopeful handling new life and seeing the roots here are established. but the question now is... ..where will their new homes be? the national trust wants these saplings to be symbols of hope and healing. each tree will go to a very special place. one of the first will be planted here in memory of 12—year—old fergus. everybody, it's fergus from the cricket channel. and today we're going to be looking at the sweet shop. let's go. we're going to start on one knee. fergus was an absolute delight. um, it was a joy and a real

privilege to be his mum. fergus was planning a trip to walk hadrian's wall, along which the sycamore gap tree was nestled. but he never made it. yesterday, they gave me some news. i have some sort of cancer in my leg. he was diagnosed with primary bone cancer — osteosarcoma. your worst fear after your child dies is that he'll be forgotten. since fergus died, nature has been a constant source of strength to us — its power to regenerate and to console. take me to where this tree is going to go, then, ruth. this is the spot we chose. fergus came here every day. there's something about the story of the new life being created from the sycamore gap that made me think of all — all the children affected by childhood cancer.

they deserve a second chance of life. the original sycamore was 49ft tall, and there will be 49 saplings for communities to apply for. for communities to apply for. it's really satisfying seeing how it's really satisfying seeing how well they've done actually. well they've done actually. it was a little bit touch it was a little bit touch and go at the beginning. and go at the beginning. the trees will be going to projects the trees will be going to projects such as this — tina's haven such as this — tina's haven in easington on the durham coast. in easington on the durham coast. where do we think that the sapling where do we think that the sapling might go then, eric? might go then, eric? thinking about the entrance, because i think sue wanted to create thinking about the entrance, because i think it could be really powerful. it could be really powerful. and my daughter tina was absolutely and my daughter tina was absolutely a unique human being. a unique human being. through her life, through her life, although she had issues although she had issues with childhood trauma, with childhood trauma, addiction and her mental health, addiction and her mental health, she was bold, she was strong, she was bold, she was strong, she was beautiful. she was beautiful. sue robson's daughter tina sue robson's daughter tina died in 2020, aged 35. died in 2020, aged 35. following her death, following her death,

coast. scotland and northern ireland were carried out later on with some outbreaks of rain. before that arrives, a chilly night the temperature is low enough for a touch of frost in rural areas. the big change for england and wales, it would be a dry and sunny start. one or two showers will develop that much lighter than we have seen through the week. a few outbreaks of rain in scotland and northern ireland. a lot of try and reasonably bright weather. another cool day. it will be dry through the night and into the start of sunday, more wet weather on saturated ground accompanied by strong wednesday to sunday and into monday. back to you both. ., ~ sunday and into monday. back to you both. . ,, i. sunday and into monday. back to you both. ., ~' ,, , sunday and into monday. back to you both. . ,, , . it seems it's the end of the road for cd players in cars. none of the big manufacturers are fitting the gadget in new models according to new research from the consumer group, which. now, the days of stashing your cd

collection in the glovebox are being replaced with digital music systems, our reporter john maguire has been taking a drive down memory lane to look at how our musical motoring has changed over the years. archive: sir herbert austin, | as he now was, decided to put motoring within the reach of all and the baby austin, one of the most famous cars in the world, was born. once we were able to hear anything above the racket made by car engines and wind noise, designers and engineers set about putting the road trip to music. song: axel f by harold faltermeyer. from radio through various tape machines, then on to cds. when compact discs were first revealed for the home, they were just as magical as the motors. this new long—playing record looks very similar to a video disc we've shown you before. the surface is covered by a layer of transparent plastic, so you don't have to worry about grubby fingers or even scratches.

but, in today's world, music comes from clouds and notjust purple rain. we actually scoured the new car availabilities and found that just none of them in the mainstream cars at least came with a cd player. and thatjust means, as far as we're concerned, it is the death of the in—car cd player. we're now in a world of apple carplay, android auto, bluetooth and cds just don't have a part in that any more. the apparent demise of the in—built cd player is disappointing for the music industry after a recent resurgence in disc sales. it's a kind of chicken and egg situation, so if you start to take cd players out of cars, you will encourage people to buy less cds, which is not something that we want to do when people are actually choosing to, you know, go back into the cd market. there was a time when getting your motor running and heading out on the highway required these — travel sweets — one of these, that's a road atlas, kids, and a whole floor full of cds, or a container to keep them in.

this one's done a few miles, i can tell you. oh, oasis! i wonder whatever happened to them. at his garage in somerset, jordan staples says the in—car entertainment is never a deal breaker, perhaps, though, just the ice—ing on the cake. there might be the odd time. maybe like more like older people maybe or something, they want to know. but younger people, i feel like they kind of know all about it, orjust know that they can get in and connect their phone and play their music. so it's not something i see happening much, to be honest. so you just plug a phone in? yeah. orjust like bluetooth, so you don't even need to plug it in. just literally go into your settings, click bluetooth, connect to it and that's it. you can play your music. easy as that. of course, these days you don't even need to press a button. play oasis. navigating to oasis centre. no. play oasis. now playing genesis.

oh, forget it. just put blur on. navigating to burton. 0h! i think i'll download a mindfulness podcast instead. john maguire, bbc news, somerset. it is making me stressed watching that, when you end up shouting at the machine. he did get to his destination in the end and got a cd on, we hope. lots of people say they like to listen to an entire album on a cd rather than relying on digital. over its ito—year history, crimewatch has been cracking some of the uk's biggest unsolved cases and bringing criminals tojustice, thanks to the help of the public. from its gripping reconstructions to its real—time appeals, the programme has featured some of the most high profile cases including the murder of the show�*s own presenter, jill dando. our reporter divya talwar has been looking back at where it all began.

crimewatch theme. four decades since we first heard that theme song played in homes across the uk. hello and welcome to crimewatch uk. with a combination of direct police appeals and powerful crime reconstructions, the show asks the public to call with any potential information, but there was no guarantee they would. we suddenly thought, what if nobody rings? i mean, it was about 20 minutes in and i looked around. - thank god, there's a phone going. one of the most difficult cases featured on the show was the murder of one of their own presenters, jill dando, in 1999, which remains unsolved. for all of us here, it can be gruelling coping with crimes against victims who are strangers. it's been almost unbearable dealing withjill�*s death. over the years, the programme has featured a roll call of presenters. in 2017, it moved to a daytime slot with michelle ackerley

and rav wilding. but loyal viewers will remember the show always ending with this advice from its very first presenter. meanwhile, don't have nightmares. we're joined by michelle ackerley, who's a presenter on crimewatch live and david hatcher, a former police chief superintendent, who was part of the show from the 19805. morning to you. david, i think may be the obvious place to start is with the murder ofjill dando. ye were involved in the show around that time. even now people remember it is one of those stories. tragedy, obviously, but also a story the whole nation felt very personally and you were involved in the

programme at the time. i and you were involved in the programme at the time. i worked with jill u- till programme at the time. i worked with jill pp till the — programme at the time. i worked with jill up till the time _ programme at the time. i worked with jill up till the time of _ programme at the time. i worked with jill up till the time of her _ programme at the time. i worked with jill up till the time of her death. - jill up till the time of her death. the first time i met her she thought i was part of the bbc catering department, so she obviously hadn't watched the programme too much. we got on really well. had i not known how my mum would have died sooner than she did. jill's partner at the time as a gynaecologist and i was able to get advice from him subsequent tojill�*s able to get advice from him subsequent to jill's death. able to get advice from him subsequent tojill�*s death. the subsequent to jill's death. the impact subsequent tojill�*s death. the impact she had on my life was fantastic in many ways. she was exactly what you saw on the screen. it was a programme about crime. it's lead presenter was the victim of the most appalling crime.— most appalling crime. when i was told about it. _ most appalling crime. when i was told about it, it _ most appalling crime. when i was told about it, it is _ most appalling crime. when i was told about it, it is like _ most appalling crime. when i was told about it, it is like 9m, - most appalling crime. when i was told about it, it is like 9/11, you i told about it, it is like 9/11, you knew where you were then. i can remember at that moment where i was and howl remember at that moment where i was and how i was told. it was shocking. if you said i was going to be the
