lucy manning has this update from outside the royal courts of justice.fjust how big the bill is he is facing for losing that case against the circular for last week. the total bill so far and it is going to rise significantly, is £1.5 million. £850,000 of fat as you said, is to pay sir cliff richard for part of his legal fees. the pay sir cliff richard for part of his legalfees. the bbc pay sir cliff richard for part of his legal fees. the bbc also tried and failed today, to see if it could get permission to appeal the judgement. thejudge did not appear massively impressed with the bbc‘s argument, calling them "irrelevant, wrong and meaningless". the bbc now has to decide whether it might go directly to the court of appeal. but it said that while there were issues of significant press freedom that might need to be looked at, it also did not want to prolong the case. so the bbc really has to decide whether it is going to risk a potentially more of licence fee payer's money or deal with the issue that is pink is a significant threat to the press freedoms,

if they weren't afforded prosecution and trial, judges on the royal courts were commanded by the act under possible penalty if they disobeyed the act, to discharge the prisoner. the translation the king could no longer hold people under suspicion. the king had to try people in due court or they can run to the court and demand freedom. >> if you were thrown in the tower of london, could you file a habeas threat and get your freedom? >> yes. the way habeas corpus act worked is just that way. you would go and you would go before the court of king's bench and invoke the act as a subject of a crown. say i get the benefit of this act. i haven't been tried, i have to be released. and there are many cases in which the court of king's bench ordered the release of prisoners, including prominent prisoners, on this basis. and so you can see that this is a really powerful check on executive authority and specifically executive detention. it's going to be a problem it's so powerful because in short order, this is 1679, by 1689 we've seen glorious revolution. william has taken the throne, jacobites

so that front court number 15 here at the royal courts ofjustice, sir cliff richard has won his privityame to court of course, arguing his privity had been breached after the bbc reported on the raid in 2015 on his property in sunningdale in berkshire. he gave evidence during the case here at court and he went into the witness box and he described to the court room how the cove rage by described to the court room how the coverage by the bbc had an immense impact on his life. notjust commercially, but he also said that mentally, it had a huge impact as well. he described to the court how the day after the coverage, he collapsed in his kitchen and began sobbing he said, for the following nine months or so. he didn't sleep very much and he said he felt like he would have a heart attack or a stroke. we now know sir cliff richard has succeeded in his claim against the bbc here in court. he will receive substantial damages and the judge is now going back over the case itself and how the trial took place. so, he will be relieved at the judgment here in court today. what we don't know is what s

well, a few years ago, the government argued, in the royal courts ofjustice, that ex—gay is a protectedy, all the evidence is that it is inherent, and the wonderful thing about the change in our society over my lifetime has meant that i grew up in a place where i simply had no point of reference that made any sense, that made any sense for me, and i entered a profession where, if i was myself, it was illegal. the problem is we are discriminating... society has massively changed. the great thing about this survey, 108,000 people, is that whilst we have won a major battle... a convenience sample, not a randomised controlled sample. the equality of marriage and the rest, there are still obviously plenty of areas where lgbt people face discrimination in society, and the idea that people are then going to be faced with conversion therapy... it is shocking. we don't offer conversion therapy. how do you respond to the fact that it is going to be banned? it won‘t be banned because people have the right to choose the direction they want to go in, and mandatory gay will not work. you can‘t force

that was from outside the royal courts ofjustice. time for a look at the weather.n heatwave, we need the source. there is nothing unusual about it. it is hot air from the south, it is just very unusual for it to travel some more north to our clouds. but to achieve these really high values, 35, inland, you need particularly calm weather and dry ground. you need a lot of strong sunshine which is what we have had for a long time. and the reason why we need very dry ground is, if the ground is wet and we had a bit of a shower or something, the heat from the sun that hits the ground will be used to evaporate that dampness. but in this case, it is not, it is just scorching it. we have a big moment tomorrow, we have a lunar eclipse at some point, so have a lunar eclipse at some point, so how will we be able to see that, is it better tomorrow? you want clear skies for the lunar eclipse. it will be dark by then. we hope the skies were clear. the chances are that it will be cloudy and some parts of the country. but i think there is a good chance some of those will see it. so

court. well, now we have started the battle royale over president trump's second nominee for the court. just like the first one had the unprecedented twist because republicans held open that seat so the democratic president couldn't advance a nominee, now there is an unprecedented twist, too. >> why did the president stick with kavanaugh? because he's worried. that mr. mueller will go to the court and ask that the president be subpoenaed and ask to do other things necessary to move the investigation forward and president trump knows that kavanaugh will be a barrier to preventing that investigation from going there. >> even before president trump picked his nominee last night, he was already saying no nominee should be considered until after the november elections. that was the standard the republicans set for the last supreme court vacancy. they should do it with this one too. now trump has announced the name of his nominee, brett kavanaugh, chuck schumer today and many other democratic senators, now they are raising concerns about whether kavanaugh might have been specifyingly picked b

so it's about getting the balance with the grass courts, white clothes and the royal box but also improvingad thing, because that would mean you didn't care. but i was lucky with my family, my mother took me there when i was six for the first time in 1981 and i saw bjorn borg. did you think you would end up there? i made my career decision right there. in 1996 when i got a chance to play there it sort of felt like i had 15 years to prepare for it, so i was nervous but i was also very excited. i played the french open champion and i beat him 7—5 in the fifth set. i always said if i could play my whole career on one court it would be the centre court at wimbledon, the most special court in tennis. if you have the chance to play there you might as well enjoy it. what about the other players? do they have a similar sense? i think so. if you spoke to the top 100 men and women and said, if there's one tournament you would most like to win, they would say wimbledon. and that goes back to the history and tradition, and the past great champions we've had. and hopefully how the event is always improv
