would get to the finish line first. there was a little bit of arrogance you know certainly in the general public before sport medicare kind of been resting easy and feeling our well we were always first we were the first to notice you know you read the kind of press and books and government press releases about grand guard and i could produce six would be seven it was just assumed that it would be the first i don't even sort of take account of the fact that there might not be the first one. on july seventh eisenhower announced that the u.s. satellite would be launched in the coming year. and it seemed absolutely certain that no one would there craft ahead of that. even though there were clear indicators that the soviets were in the race. secret cia information that you two surveillance flights had picked up wasn't being taken all that seriously in the white house in fact about as seriously as official test reports after all they were used to soviet games of bluff and deception. this time however the soviets were right on

these are the first signals from space. one of my favorite is a long queue sputnik you gave the world a bucket. of. baikonur is the place from where sputnik one opened the gateway to space on october fourth one nine hundred fifty seven. two years before the historic sputnik flight a broad step was the only thing here besides a lonely train station and camels. it was a godforsaken place until the kremlin decided in one nine hundred fifty five to create an enormous facility for testing nuclear missiles. construction in the wastelands of the staff went on a case that was baikonur in one nine hundred fifty five. more and more military personnel came into the closed region. keeping it all very hush hush was the rule. in the kremlin soviet leader nikita khrushchev and his nuclear weapon strategists were putting their hopes in a new type of intercontinental ballistic missile the r seven. as you know it was the also of his job to carry a free point five ton nuclear warhead across a range of at least eight thousand kilometers. the ta

so his focus is really on europe and the atlantic first. as jim pointed out too, much to the chagrin of douglas macarthur who is in a holding pattern until things are really under control in europe. that's really where marshall's emphasis was in terms of the two theaters and where to focus their energies. >> sir, i hope it's okay, i have two questions that are in my mind. evaluate their officers from second lieutenant up. you have these officer efficiency reports. i've often gotten the idea that george marshall went beyond that. he picked a lot of people that he happened to know personally, he knew their personal work and so forth. i'd like for you to comment on that. secondly, i don't know if you mentioned, george marshall was a vmi graduate from our own state, that's an rotc program although it's quite unique. and not too often do we have men coming out of the rotc program that end up being chairmans of joint chief of staff, colin powell is a recent example. is this still a time in america where somebody can come out and still have an equa

mitchell: i believe the first combat contingent was the u.s. first division. you can see them receiving a lot of fanfare. guillaume: southwest of france, that is bordeaux, famous for wine. they are entering the river into the town center. even see how many people are waiting for the american troops coming, hoping for liberation. it was 500 miles from the frontline. all of these people, they are aware of what has been going on for the last three years and are hopeful to see women having their husbands back at home, sons, everything. mitchell: they were excited about having the american troops and hoping that american soldiers would go immediately in line and fight, but that did not happen. it would require several months of training and also the french were hoping the american troops would amalgamate right into french command. which, for the most part, did not happen but pershing allowed to some american troops to fight with the french including the african-american division, the 93rd. guillaume: here are troops in paris already. this looks like the juazulize. m

this was hardly the unitfor making the first impression of the u.s. army in europe, but the reality was that the army did not have any other alternatives. the arrival created additional problems of convincing the allies that the u.s. army was capable of fighting as an independent force. after the ship haddocked a e-- docked, marshall could not help but notice their sloppy uniform and few traces of formal discipline. marshall believed that this display created in the mipds of the french officials that our soldiers understood nothing of the military business, since this division was supposed to be the pick of the regular army and yet it looked like the rawest of territorial units. the first division was then relocated to its designated training area. no sooner had the division arrived then the french were eager to begin training the american units, so they could join the fighting as soon as possible. the trouble with this, as marshall explained, was the french division whose headquarters were quartered with us was trying to take up our trench fighting a

"today we see the wild boars," the governor announcing. celebrating the news, four members of that soccer team are safe. >> and james joining us now. you've been outside the cave for ten days now. as you know, this is still a critical situation. with concerns about oxygen levels and the weather. >> reporter: that's right, tom. it's rained almost continuously since the first boys were freed. rescuers will be hoping that won't hinder their progress. for the young boys and coach that remain in the cave, organizers say the whole process could take up to four days. tom? >> james, thank you so much. >>> and the specially trained dive teams are preparing to retrace the nearly three-mile route to the boys. it's a painstaking process, complicated by winding caverns, pitch-black conditions, and new rains that could cause water levels to rise yet again. here's matt gutman with the treacherous work ahead. >> reporter: that rescue opera

so i'm heading up the footballing terra incognita in east africa not for the first time i went there before when binyam was a sixteen year old talented youth playing in the capital. and of course he's going to. binyam was living in a dorm for talented news athletes four hundred fifty kilometers away from his hometown during. quite privileged in this group. when he wasn't on the pitch he was making a little money as a construction worker to support his family back home. back then. because something special and i mean really special that's the man who introduced us. the german coach ignore ignore this guy's eyes this is german guy german t.v. . we want to see the talent the future of it your p.r. but only god look at look at. you i think also told me that he has an e.u. visa and it's looking for trials and shit and that he doesn't have an agent yet so what if he also changes my life completely by having me as his agent. as the wealthy and glamorous future ahead of me. back dr than half its instead of the expected heat rain. two and a half years later we meet again during our traditional

move would you like women to be the first to kiss would you like to have women be the first to. invite you into the bedroom and ninety one percent of men say yes they would love to have women take over some of this role but women don't do it. everywhere in the world my guess is that probably just about everywhere women expect men to make that first move and here we are in an age where men are scared to make the first move don't know how to make the first move don't know what's right to make the first move and women are really sitting around waiting for them to make the first move so in this time of tremendous transition. men are going to have to sort of dope it out and women are going to have to be clear or women are going to get it going to make the first. one percent and man want it because they're afraid it can be seen as harassment who is going to do that first move. i think we're going to go back to having men make the first move and i think you know women are beginning to invite men out they'll invite them out in the group they'll say well i've got one extra theater ticket

it would be the first time that a candidate from the left will take the mexican white house, the first, will rise to the presidency and apparently to the majority for seneta and congress. it is a very important victory for andres manuel lopez obrador and his party but also a very important moment for mexican voters. this election was a referendum of enrique pena nieto, and the way he conducted the presidency. he's not running for office. he needs to go after six years and many people were very angry at the violence, at rampant corruption of the administration, the killing of over 136 candidates who have been killed since the last fall. in this election many voted with anger. and also andres manuel lopez obrador i think was able to transform that anger into hope. especially young voters, will show that he was ahead. forgive me for interrupting. you're watching newsday on the bbc. still to come on the programme: 10,000 metres up and jumping into the jetstream. all in the name of scientific research. also on the programme: a case of real life being stranger than fiction, a nortorius gangs

all right, the first purge. already suggested that i am not the target demographic for this one. the thing about the purge movies is they become more successful than anybody thinks. now we have got to the prequel. they have come to the trump era social political setting. this is about the the first purge being set up. it is an experiment in lawlessness. one evening of law not applying, to see if the nation can come to terms with its demons. they are doing it in an area of poor african—americans who they imagine will turn on each other, and when they don't, other forces are sent. there is a nice socio—political underpinning. it is not the most inventive, and it is not as cutting as get out which is really sharp. i love that. that film is brilliant. no—one is more surprised than me, this far on in the series, that they have got some sort of interesting... it is fine. i saw it in a packed cinema. it played very well with them. they oohed and ahhed in all right places. swimming with men. i have heard described as fu
