here at the university of nottingham. and if you'rejust joining this live coverage, we are bringing you images of a vigil at the university of nottingham campus in honour of two students who were killed in the attacks in the city yesterday. the vigil is in memory of 19—year—old grace o'malley kumar who was studying medicine here at the university and 19—year—old barnaby webber, known as barney to his friends, who was studying history here. both of them had only started university last year, they were just at the end of their first year at university. and were just completing the end of their first year exams. and the university's graduate ball which was due to take place yesterday was cancelled given what had happened earlier in the day. now, what is normally a time of celebration, students completing another year of university, has now turned into a time of deep horror and shock. there are around 80,000 students in the city of nottingham, notjust students in the city of nottingham, not just at the university of nottingham
