Use `--language` to specify the language Detected language: English [00:00.000 --> 00:07.000] Tonight live at five, shredding his pension, [00:07.000 --> 00:10.000] disgraced banker Sir Fred Goodwin finally agrees to hand back almost [00:10.000 --> 00:18.000] £350,000 a year. It was right that he paid back some of that money. [00:18.000 --> 00:23.000] This was the discretionary element that was agreed by the Royal Bank of [00:23.000 --> 00:27.000] Scotland before he left. Also tonight Westminster blackout anger as MPs [00:27.000 --> 00:32.000] expenses are published but with crucial details covered up. Hot and [00:32.000 --> 00:35.000] bothered, the bleakest forecast yet on how climate change will affect [00:35.000 --> 00:41.000] every aspect of our daily lives. Musavi leads the morning in Iran as [00:41.000 --> 00:46.000] tens of thousands of his supporters continue to defy the president. [00:46.000 --> 00:51.000] Brotherly banter, the royal princes on living and flying with each other. [00:51.000 --> 00:55.000] It is still hard work but I'm better than William so it's fine. [00:55.000 --> 00:58.000] I cook him and feed him basically every day. I think he has done [00:58.000 --> 01:03.000] rather well. First and last time we will be living together. And so [01:03.000 --> 01:07.000] proud, hundreds line the streets as the Gurkhas are awarded the freedom [01:07.000 --> 01:16.000] of Folkestone. Live from the Sky News Centre, this is Live at Five with [01:16.000 --> 01:22.000] Colin Brazier. A very good evening to you, our top story Live at Five. [01:22.000 --> 01:26.000] Payback time for Fred the Shred. After months of public and political [01:26.000 --> 01:30.000] pressure, Sir Fred Goodwin is to hand back a huge part of his pension. [01:30.000 --> 01:34.000] As revealed on Sky News, the disgraced banker will now take home [01:34.000 --> 01:39.000] £340,000 a year but keeps a multi-million pound lump sum. The Prime [01:39.000 --> 01:43.000] Minister welcomed his decision saying he had done the right thing. Our [01:43.000 --> 01:48.000] business correspondent Ursula Errington reports. He never gave an [01:48.000 --> 01:52.000] inch in the banking world. A tough negotiator, he earned the name Fred [01:52.000 --> 01:56.000] the Shred. But with negotiations now over, Sir Fred Goodwin has lost [01:56.000 --> 02:00.000] more than half of his RBS pension. The city is reeling at the news [02:00.000 --> 02:03.000] after months of wrangling between the bank, Sir Fred and the [02:03.000 --> 02:09.000] government. I think it was right that he paid back this sum of money. [02:09.000 --> 02:14.000] This was the discretionary element that was agreed by the Royal Bank [02:14.000 --> 02:18.000] of Scotland before he left. I think for the future it is really important [02:18.000 --> 02:23.000] now that we have proper systems of bonus and reward that reflect not [02:23.000 --> 02:28.000] short-term deals but reflect long-term success. In a statement, the [02:28.000 --> 02:31.000] bank stressed the former chief executive handed back the money [02:31.000 --> 02:35.000] voluntarily, adding this pension arrangement became a symbolic issue [02:35.000 --> 02:39.000] and the focus of unprecedented media and political attention. It had [02:39.000 --> 02:43.000] to be fixed to allow everyone to focus our energies where they should [02:43.000 --> 02:47.000] be on getting the company back to health. When this scandal first [02:47.000 --> 02:52.000] emerged in February, it was thought Sir Fred's pension was £693,000 [02:52.000 --> 02:58.000] a year, but that figure was soon revised upwards to £703,000. RBS [02:58.000 --> 03:03.000] says Sir Fred took a lump sum payment of £2.7 million in February, [03:03.000 --> 03:09.000] shrinking his annual pension to £550,000. Now it's been revealed [03:09.000 --> 03:15.000] Goodwin is to take a further reduced pension of £342,500, but it's [03:15.000 --> 03:19.000] still a big cost to the bank. The pension pot to fund that is around [03:19.000 --> 03:24.000] £11.9 million. He's not going to starve, is he? He's on a rather [03:24.000 --> 03:28.000] lucrative pension by anyone's standards, a footballer-style pension [03:28.000 --> 03:33.000] anyway, so I don't imagine he's going to miss the money, but it allows [03:33.000 --> 03:38.000] him at least to rehabilitate himself somewhat in this country, to walk [03:38.000 --> 03:43.000] around and not be shunned. But pressure for a pension payback was growing [03:43.000 --> 03:47.000] even before Sir Fred had to answer to the Treasury Select Committee to [03:47.000 --> 03:51.000] take responsibility for his part in bringing a British bank to the brink. [03:51.000 --> 03:55.000] There's a profound and unqualified apology for all of the distress that [03:55.000 --> 03:59.000] has been caused, and I would not wish there to be any doubt about that. [03:59.000 --> 04:02.000] Days later, the Prime Minister said his lawyers were going after the [04:02.000 --> 04:06.000] banker's pension. I still think it would be better if Sir Fred waved [04:06.000 --> 04:10.000] the pension entitlement himself, but if that's not to be done, we will [04:10.000 --> 04:13.000] continue to seek the legal advice as necessary. An angry Sir Fred hit [04:13.000 --> 04:17.000] back in the Telegraph newspaper, saying City Minister Lord Miners was [04:17.000 --> 04:21.000] well aware of his pension arrangements and had OK'd them. Public [04:21.000 --> 04:26.000] fury over the whole financial meltdown focused on Sir Fred. Castigated [04:26.000 --> 04:30.000] as a bad banker, his children bullied, he'd already gone to ground [04:30.000 --> 04:34.000] somewhere in Europe when his Edinburgh home was vandalised. [04:34.000 --> 04:39.000] An internal inquiry at RBS has found Sir Fred didn't behave illegally [04:39.000 --> 04:43.000] or immorally as chief executive of the bank. That vindication will be [04:43.000 --> 04:48.000] important if he's to return to public life. The question now is whether [04:48.000 --> 04:53.000] conceding £4.7 million can buy the public's forgiveness. Well, Ursula [04:53.000 --> 04:56.000] Jones is now live from RBS headquarters in central London. Ursula, [04:56.000 --> 05:01.000] he still won't be short of ready cash. He won't be short of any money, [05:01.000 --> 05:04.000] but it would seem that this is something of a win-win solution all [05:04.000 --> 05:08.000] round. RBS gets some of their money back. The Government can now say [05:08.000 --> 05:12.000] that they said they were going to go after part of this pension pot, and [05:12.000 --> 05:15.000] they have delivered on that, avoiding a very costly court case, no [05:15.000 --> 05:19.000] doubt. And Sir Fred himself may now have done enough to be able to re-enter [05:19.000 --> 05:22.000] public life, and I think that's the crucial factor here. Whatever the [05:22.000 --> 05:26.000] extent to which you may blame Sir Fred Goodwin for the woes of RBS, he [05:26.000 --> 05:30.000] does have a young family who is said to have been very traumatised by [05:30.000 --> 05:33.000] the extent of the public anger that's been vented towards them, and [05:33.000 --> 05:36.000] it's said that that is perhaps one of the most important factors that [05:36.000 --> 05:39.000] brought him to the negotiating table to do this deal. He's made the [05:39.000 --> 05:46.000] deal. Why do you think, though, this gesture has come now at this time? [05:46.000 --> 05:49.000] Well, they were very clear today that Sir Fred Goodwin was only really [05:49.000 --> 05:52.000] willing to push forward these negotiations once RBS had concluded [05:52.000 --> 05:56.000] their own internal investigation into his conduct. They have finished [05:56.000 --> 06:00.000] that investigation. They said he did nothing illegal, nothing immoral, [06:00.000 --> 06:04.000] and so then he was very willing to sort out some kind of settlement. But [06:04.000 --> 06:08.000] he wouldn't do it before that just in case he was ever accused of trying [06:08.000 --> 06:12.000] to buy his way out of being investigated. So it was important for [06:12.000 --> 06:16.000] him to get his name cleared. He'll be hoping with this gesture that now [06:16.000 --> 06:19.000] he can move on. Ursula, thanks very much. And later this hour I'll be [06:19.000 --> 06:22.000] speaking to our business presenter, Geoff Randall, he it was who broke [06:22.000 --> 06:27.000] that story. That's coming up live at half past five. David Cameron has [06:27.000 --> 06:31.000] agreed to pay back nearly £1,000 in wrongly claimed expenses. The [06:31.000 --> 06:35.000] Conservative leader's decision comes on the day details of all MPs' [06:35.000 --> 06:40.000] expenses were made public but with key information missing. Our political [06:40.000 --> 06:46.000] correspondent, Glen O'Glaser, reports. Publishing MPs' expenses in full [06:46.000 --> 06:51.000] for the last four years was supposed to restore our trust in politics and [06:51.000 --> 06:55.000] politicians. But now we've seen the official paperwork, huge sections [06:55.000 --> 07:01.000] blacked out, information kept secret. Hardly transparent, is it? Without the [07:01.000 --> 07:06.000] Daily Telegraph's disclosures, we would have had a lot of small items [07:06.000 --> 07:10.000] about individual items and expenditure, but no information about the main [07:10.000 --> 07:15.000] scandal, which is the flipping of second homes. But apparently there [07:15.000 --> 07:19.000] are very good reasons why we can't see the information we'd like to. [07:19.000 --> 07:23.000] Every blacked out piece, and we anticipated this would be the story, [07:23.000 --> 07:27.000] covers data protection, covers security, covers bank account numbers, [07:27.000 --> 07:32.000] covers credit card numbers, covers personal addresses, covers patterns [07:32.000 --> 07:36.000] of behaviour, covers suppliers who are covered by the Data Protection Act [07:36.000 --> 07:40.000] and if we were to publish their information we would be in breach of [07:40.000 --> 07:44.000] that and they could sue the House of Commons. So far 20 MPs have said [07:44.000 --> 07:48.000] they're going to stand down because of expenses, but they may not have had [07:48.000 --> 07:52.000] to if all we knew was from the claims published today. Take the latest [07:52.000 --> 07:56.000] resignation of Treasury Minister Kitty Usher. She avoided paying up to [07:56.000 --> 08:00.000] £17,000 in capital gains tax, but the change of address has been blocked [08:00.000 --> 08:05.000] out in the Commons receipt. Margaret Moran spent £22,500 to treat [08:05.000 --> 08:09.000] dry rot at a property 100 miles from her constituency, but the address [08:09.000 --> 08:14.000] she was making claims on was completely blacked out. The £2,000 that [08:14.000 --> 08:18.000] Douglas Hogg claimed for cleaning out his moat wasn't even included. [08:18.000 --> 08:22.000] And as the published Commons receipts only show what was approved, [08:22.000 --> 08:27.000] we would be none the wiser that Gosforth MP Sir Peter Vigors tried to [08:27.000 --> 08:33.000] claim £1,600 for a duck house. Nor would we have known about Hazel [08:33.000 --> 08:38.000] Blears who stumped up £13,000 in capital gains tax before resigning [08:38.000 --> 08:42.000] from the Government. There's a strong case, if not for the whole address [08:42.000 --> 08:45.000] being published, for I understand the reasons for that, at least the [08:45.000 --> 08:48.000] postcode being published so people can see their MP for Luton's living [08:48.000 --> 08:52.000] in Southampton. The Government maintains the system is being cleaned [08:52.000 --> 08:56.000] up. We are going to introduce legislation very, very shortly that [08:56.000 --> 09:01.000] will completely make the whole question of expenses run independently [09:01.000 --> 09:05.000] of the House of Commons, of independent scrutiny, independent setting [09:05.000 --> 09:09.000] of the rules. I think that will lead to much more openness and will be [09:09.000 --> 09:13.000] better in the future. From the Prime Minister down, MPs may feel they [09:13.000 --> 09:17.000] need their hard hats right now. If all details of MPs' expenses were [09:17.000 --> 09:21.000] revealed, few doubt that even more of them would be forced to stand [09:21.000 --> 09:26.000] down. The fees office operates out of this rather anonymous building [09:26.000 --> 09:29.000] across the road from the House of Commons. It's here, if you were [09:29.000 --> 09:32.000] allowed in, that you would find those officials who approved all those [09:32.000 --> 09:36.000] MPs' expenses and even, according to some MPs, encouraged them to [09:36.000 --> 09:40.000] go over claim. And yet they appear to operate in a culture of secrecy, [09:40.000 --> 09:46.000] revealing as little information as possible. More MPs are paying back [09:46.000 --> 09:50.000] money, including Conservative leader David Cameron, not only for that [09:50.000 --> 09:54.000] notorious wisteria, but also for mortgage interest payments and gas, [09:54.000 --> 09:58.000] electricity and phone bills. One thing we have learnt is that Shadow [09:58.000 --> 10:04.000] Chancellor George Osborne claimed £47 for two DVDs of one of his own [10:04.000 --> 10:09.000] speeches. The subject of the speech, value for taxpayers' money. [10:09.000 --> 10:12.000] Glennon Glaser, Sky News, Westminster. [10:12.000 --> 10:16.000] Live in Westminster, our chief political correspondent John Craig. [10:16.000 --> 10:21.000] Mr Cameron says this was an inadvertent error. It's small change [10:21.000 --> 10:25.000] compared with Fred Shred's gesture, but it is a gesture. Earlier this [10:25.000 --> 10:29.000] week Mr Cameron told a meeting of Tory MPs he was going to pay some [10:29.000 --> 10:34.000] money back. Now we know exactly what. He is trying to lead by example. [10:34.000 --> 10:38.000] At that meeting he had with his MPs, there were grumbles and there's [10:38.000 --> 10:42.000] talk of a letter circulating accusing him of Stalinist tactics, [10:42.000 --> 10:46.000] getting tough on his back benches and not so tough on some of his own [10:46.000 --> 10:50.000] Shadow Cabinet members. This is what Mr Cameron told us just a very [10:50.000 --> 11:02.000] short time ago about what he is going to do. John, apologies to our [11:02.000 --> 11:05.000] viewers, we have some sound problems. We will try to get that fixed and [11:05.000 --> 11:08.000] replay it later this hour. The expenses with details blacked out, [11:08.000 --> 11:11.000] that is grist of the mill for those who think MPs had something to [11:11.000 --> 11:16.000] hide. The Telegraph will say and in fact they are saying, if it [11:16.000 --> 11:20.000] hadn't been for them, if it hadn't been for the fact that they knew [11:20.000 --> 11:23.000] the addresses, we wouldn't have known about all these flippers. We [11:23.000 --> 11:26.000] wouldn't have known, for example, about Kitty Asher who quit last [11:26.000 --> 11:30.000] night. She might have got away with it so the claim goes. What we have [11:30.000 --> 11:34.000] learned today is a lot of rather colourful and rather interesting [11:34.000 --> 11:39.000] fun claims, if you like, besides George Osborne and his DVDs. We have [11:39.000 --> 11:44.000] some quite interesting ones from Labour ministers, latex gloves, [11:44.000 --> 11:48.000] Jim Knight, corkscrew and glasses, Christmas cards, all that sort of [11:48.000 --> 11:53.000] stuff. On the Tory side, massive mobile phone bill from Liam Fox, [11:53.000 --> 11:58.000] Chris Grayling, three televisions and three shredders. You might say [11:58.000 --> 12:01.000] they are all a bit trivial. The serious point is that there has been [12:01.000 --> 12:04.000] a big battle here to try and keep this secret and there are still [12:04.000 --> 12:08.000] allegations of a cover-up. Mr Osborne, besides being lampooned over [12:08.000 --> 12:13.000] his DVDs, is facing a complaint by Labour, the Labour constituency [12:13.000 --> 12:18.000] chairman in Tatton, his constituency to the Parliamentary [12:18.000 --> 12:21.000] Commissioner for Standards. He has told us tonight that he has [12:21.000 --> 12:24.000] received a complaint. He is looking at it, deciding what to do, [12:24.000 --> 12:27.000] talking to Mr Osborne first. A lot of allegations flying around [12:27.000 --> 12:31.000] between one party and another here. Serious allegations of sleaze in [12:31.000 --> 12:35.000] some cases, some pretty trivial stuff we learned today and perhaps [12:35.000 --> 12:40.000] some of the more serious stuff has been covered up. Thanks very much. [12:40.000 --> 12:43.000] Former Prime Minister Sir John Major has described the Government's [12:43.000 --> 12:48.000] decision to keep an inquiry on the Iraq war private as inexplicable. [12:48.000 --> 12:51.000] He said the findings risk being denounced as a whitewash. After a [12:51.000 --> 12:54.000] day of heavy criticism, Gordon Brown has been forced into a U-turn [12:54.000 --> 12:58.000] and some hearings will now be made public. The former Cabinet [12:58.000 --> 13:01.000] Minister, Lord Butler, said the Prime Minister had not been acting [13:01.000 --> 13:05.000] in the interests of the public, at least not initially. He is in our [13:05.000 --> 13:08.000] Westminster studio as you see. Lord Butler, thank you very much for [13:08.000 --> 13:11.000] joining us this evening. You say the Government has effectively been [13:11.000 --> 13:14.000] acting in the political rather than national interest. That is a [13:14.000 --> 13:18.000] serious accusation. Why do you make it? You can see that it is in the [13:18.000 --> 13:23.000] Government's political interest that as little should come out in [13:23.000 --> 13:28.000] public about the war in Iraq between now and the general election and [13:28.000 --> 13:32.000] one cannot help feeling that the form of the inquiry has been dictated [13:32.000 --> 13:37.000] more by that consideration than the national consideration of purging [13:37.000 --> 13:41.000] the mistrust that people feel about the decisions to go to war. What [13:41.000 --> 13:44.000] do you say to those who argue and point to the template of the [13:44.000 --> 13:48.000] Franks committee that looked into the Falklands war, which said, [13:48.000 --> 13:52.000] look, when you have got sensitive intelligence evidence, some of that [13:52.000 --> 13:56.000] has to be in camera. It has to be confidential. Some of it, I think, [13:56.000 --> 14:01.000] does have to be in camera. Of course, my review published all the [14:01.000 --> 14:05.000] intelligence, all the intelligence assessments that the Ministers [14:05.000 --> 14:09.000] received. I think there are aspects of discussions with the Americans [14:09.000 --> 14:13.000] that ought to be heard in camera and I think that there may be some [14:13.000 --> 14:16.000] people who will only be willing to give evidence in camera. But I [14:16.000 --> 14:20.000] think the presumption ought to be that the hearings are as much in [14:20.000 --> 14:25.000] public as they can be to try and show the public that the Government is [14:25.000 --> 14:29.000] not trying to conceal things. There is a suggestion perhaps that what [14:29.000 --> 14:33.000] is cathartic for the relatives of those who died in fighting ought to [14:33.000 --> 14:37.000] be a guiding principle. Some might say that is not really the way that [14:37.000 --> 14:40.000] we ought to be looking at this. We ought not to be looking at it as a [14:40.000 --> 14:43.000] cathartic exercise for those who are perhaps still grieving. Well, I [14:43.000 --> 14:47.000] think there are two functions of the inquiry. One is to draw policy [14:47.000 --> 14:50.000] conclusions, the policy lessons, and there are certainly a lot to be [14:50.000 --> 14:53.000] learnt from the Iraq experience. And that, I think, that the bodies [14:53.000 --> 14:57.000] that have been set up is well qualified to do. But I think that it [14:57.000 --> 15:00.000] is not just the relatives, it certainly includes the relatives. [15:00.000 --> 15:05.000] There are very many people who feel that they were misled, maybe even [15:05.000 --> 15:09.000] deceived by the Government about decisions for going to war. And [15:09.000 --> 15:14.000] that is a feeling, I think, that, again, the Government has got to [15:14.000 --> 15:17.000] deal with. It is in the public interest that that boil should be [15:17.000 --> 15:21.000] lanced. The more public the inquiry becomes, the more grandstanding [15:21.000 --> 15:26.000] some say there will be. Is that a danger we think perhaps maybe about [15:26.000 --> 15:29.000] the Bloody Sunday inquiry and think how long that has taken, how much [15:29.000 --> 15:32.000] it has cost? Well, I think the Bloody Sunday is a little bit of a [15:32.000 --> 15:36.000] bogeyman, if I may say so. I don't think all inquiries have to be like [15:36.000 --> 15:41.000] Bloody Sunday. And I think that, you know, as far as the evidence of [15:41.000 --> 15:48.000] the military, of the intelligence chiefs, indeed of the diplomats, I [15:48.000 --> 15:52.000] don't think there is much ground for grandstanding there. And I don't [15:52.000 --> 15:56.000] think, if you look at previous inquiries, one sees much evidence of [15:56.000 --> 15:59.000] grandstanding. Maybe not grandstanding, but certainly a lawyer's [15:59.000 --> 16:05.000] paradise. Well, yes, but, you know, if people need to be protected by [16:05.000 --> 16:10.000] lawyers' advice, they need to be protected in a private inquiry as [16:10.000 --> 16:13.000] much as they do in a public inquiry. So I think that that is not an [16:13.000 --> 16:16.000] essential difference between a public and a private inquiry. Lord [16:16.000 --> 16:19.000] Butler, thanks very much. I love speaking to the former Prime [16:19.000 --> 16:22.000] Minister, Sir John Major, later this hour. That is coming up at [16:22.000 --> 16:27.000] 5.30. Scientists have made the bleakest assessment yet of the [16:27.000 --> 16:31.000] effect climate change will have on the UK. They warn that rising [16:31.000 --> 16:35.000] temperatures and more extreme weather events will change all our [16:35.000 --> 16:41.000] daily lives. Sky's Holly Williams has more. Thanks, Colin. Scientists [16:41.000 --> 16:46.000] used a supercomputer to model different outcomes and it is bad [16:46.000 --> 16:50.000] news. Much more serious than we previously thought. If we don't cut [16:50.000 --> 16:54.000] carbon emissions, the worst case scenario is an average summer [16:54.000 --> 16:59.000] temperature rise of six degrees by 2080. So what would that feel [16:59.000 --> 17:03.000] like? Well, in London, summer temperatures would soar to 40 [17:03.000 --> 17:08.000] degrees. To put that in perspective, the 2003 heat wave saw temperatures [17:08.000 --> 17:13.000] of two degrees above average, killing 2,000 people here and 70,000 [17:13.000 --> 17:18.000] across Europe. With the heat could come more skin cancers, infectious [17:18.000 --> 17:22.000] diseases like malaria and respiratory problems like bronchitis and [17:22.000 --> 17:27.000] emphysema. Sea levels could also rise by 36 centimetres, putting [17:27.000 --> 17:31.000] hundreds of thousands of homes at risk. In the north, winters will be [17:31.000 --> 17:36.000] wetter and we'll see more storms. But with 20 per cent less rain in some [17:36.000 --> 17:40.000] areas, farmers could face crop failures and drought. Those are the [17:40.000 --> 17:46.000] predictions for the future. So what's Britain doing to face the heat? [17:46.000 --> 17:51.000] If we don't cut carbon emissions, even the best case scenarios will [17:51.000 --> 17:57.000] bring more killer summers, more disastrous floods and creeping sea [17:57.000 --> 18:03.000] levels. Today, the Prime Minister visited the Thames Barrier, built [18:03.000 --> 18:08.000] to protect London from floods in the 1950s. The message is that climate [18:08.000 --> 18:12.000] change is inevitable and we have to get ready for it. We're surrounded [18:12.000 --> 18:16.000] by the sea. We've got a lot of experience of dealing with it. We've [18:16.000 --> 18:20.000] invested over the last 12 years a lot of money in flood defence. We've [18:20.000 --> 18:23.000] doubled the spending, so more homes are protected now than was the [18:23.000 --> 18:27.000] case a decade ago. But we've got to prepare for the future that's [18:27.000 --> 18:31.000] coming as well. At Plumpton College near Lewes, they're making the [18:31.000 --> 18:35.000] best of rising temperatures, growing grapes and retraining local [18:35.000 --> 18:40.000] farmers to do the same. Two degrees hotter than I think we're really [18:40.000 --> 18:43.000] in the champagne sort of climate. And I think there'll be some really [18:43.000 --> 18:48.000] big plantations on the Jorky slopes in Kent and Surrey and Hampshire, [18:48.000 --> 18:55.000] even Dorset. They'll be producing some wonderful wines. But for most [18:55.000 --> 19:01.000] of Britain, there's nothing to celebrate in today's report. To cope, [19:01.000 --> 19:05.000] the environment secretaries announced lots of new measures. There are [19:05.000 --> 19:08.000] contingency plans in hospitals to deal with heat waves and changes in [19:08.000 --> 19:12.000] farming practices. In fact, all government departments have been [19:12.000 --> 19:16.000] ordered to come up with adaptation plans. But what really needs to [19:16.000 --> 19:20.000] change is carbon emissions. The government's aiming to cut them by a [19:20.000 --> 19:25.000] third by 2020. If we can't do that, it's going to get a lot warmer, a [19:25.000 --> 19:29.000] lot sooner than we'd thought. Holly, thanks very much. A journalist has [19:29.000 --> 19:33.000] won the right to withhold material about the real IRA from police in [19:33.000 --> 19:36.000] Northern Ireland. A judge ruled that Suzanne Breen's life would be [19:36.000 --> 19:40.000] endangered if she gave the authorities information on the killings [19:40.000 --> 19:46.000] of two British soldiers in March. Criminal trials to be heard without [19:46.000 --> 19:49.000] a jury for the first time. The Court of Appeal made the ruling saying [19:49.000 --> 19:53.000] there was a significant danger of jury tampering. Four people are [19:53.000 --> 19:57.000] facing charges after an armed attempt to steal £10 million from a [19:57.000 --> 20:02.000] warehouse at Heathrow Airport. Baroness Thatcher is to have a routine [20:02.000 --> 20:06.000] operation tomorrow to insert a pin into her broken arm. The 83-year-old [20:06.000 --> 20:12.000] has been recovering in hospital for a week after falling over at home. [20:12.000 --> 20:15.000] Iran's defeated presidential candidate Mia Hussein Mousavi has [20:15.000 --> 20:19.000] appeared on the sixth day of protests in Tehran. Demonstrators wore [20:19.000 --> 20:23.000] black to mourn those killed in clashes with police. Sky News reporters [20:23.000 --> 20:26.000] in Iran were asked to leave by the authorities after the election. This [20:26.000 --> 20:30.000] report is being compiled in London by our Foreign Affairs correspondent [20:30.000 --> 20:38.000] Lisa Holland. Iranian state television allowed to show President [20:38.000 --> 20:44.000] Ahmadinejad's nemesis. Grainy pictures but still it is a highly [20:44.000 --> 20:48.000] provocative image. The opposition leader who claims he was cheated [20:48.000 --> 20:53.000] from power calling on his supporters to stay calm. They had come because [20:53.000 --> 20:58.000] Mia Hussein Mousavi had asked them to. Such is the following he has [20:58.000 --> 21:04.000] garnered over recent weeks. Now his face symbolises a movement demanding [21:04.000 --> 21:08.000] more than just a recount of the election. But for today he told them [21:08.000 --> 21:12.000] to wear black as a sign of mourning for those killed in the violence since [21:12.000 --> 21:20.000] voting day. This picture was taken yesterday of one family burying its [21:20.000 --> 21:25.000] dead. The government puts the number killed at eight. The opposition [21:25.000 --> 21:29.000] claims it is as many as a hundred across the country. But there is [21:29.000 --> 21:34.000] absolutely no way of knowing if that is true. And the list of those [21:34.000 --> 21:39.000] detained by the authorities is growing. Including Ibrahim Yadzi, a former [21:39.000 --> 21:43.000] aide to the father of the revolution, the Ayatollah Khomeini. And [21:43.000 --> 21:48.000] Mohammed Tavassali, close to the former president Rafsanjani. The [21:48.000 --> 21:52.000] opposition says hundreds of people have been detained. Foreign [21:52.000 --> 21:56.000] analysts are still banned from attending the rallies and communication [21:56.000 --> 22:01.000] with the outside world is being stifled. The next move will come from [22:01.000 --> 22:06.000] the Ayatollah Khomeini, Iran's supreme leader. He will address the nation [22:06.000 --> 22:11.000] from Friday prayers in Tehran. It is his moment to really assert his [22:11.000 --> 22:16.000] authority in a place where the constitution decrees his word is final. [22:16.000 --> 22:23.000] After the violence in the universities and on the streets, it will be a [22:23.000 --> 22:27.000] moment to attempt to mould national unity where for days now there has [22:27.000 --> 22:32.000] been violent division. If he fails, all bets are off in predicting Iran's [22:32.000 --> 22:38.000] future. Lisa Holland, Sky News. Britain's royal princes have revealed [22:38.000 --> 22:42.000] their royal rivalry. William and Harry are both undergoing training to be [22:42.000 --> 22:47.000] pilots, but neither is willing to admit whose best skies. Jeff Mead reports. [22:49.000 --> 22:53.000] Brothers in arms as the two princes' military careers coincide for the [22:53.000 --> 22:57.000] first time. As well as getting to grips with rigorous classroom and flying [22:57.000 --> 23:02.000] tests, they're sharing a house and a good deal of banter. He's definitely [23:02.000 --> 23:05.000] got more brains than me, I think we've established that from school, but [23:05.000 --> 23:15.000] I'm much better hands on. [23:15.000 --> 23:19.000] It's pretty rich coming from a ginger, so I'm quite happy to do well. [23:19.000 --> 23:23.000] Well, bearing in mind I cook him and feed him basically every day, I think [23:23.000 --> 23:26.000] he's done rather well. He told us the other week that he did all the [23:26.000 --> 23:28.000] washing out. He does do a bit of the washing up, then he leaves most of it [23:28.000 --> 23:30.000] in the sink and then it comes back in the morning and I have to wash it [23:30.000 --> 23:37.000] up. [23:37.000 --> 23:47.000] William has been learning since January how to fly RAF search and rescue [23:47.000 --> 23:51.000] missions. Harry, who served on the front line in Helmand last year, is [23:51.000 --> 23:55.000] desperate to return to combat duty, the anonymity of a cockpit seen as the [23:55.000 --> 24:00.000] safest way for a Royal to return to action. [24:00.000 --> 24:03.000] To get out to Afghanistan again would be fantastic and my best chance is [24:03.000 --> 24:05.000] to do it from a helicopter. [24:05.000 --> 24:06.000] You've got off the ground yet? [24:06.000 --> 24:07.000] Sorry? [24:07.000 --> 24:08.000] You've got off the ground yet? [24:08.000 --> 24:09.000] I've just got off the ground. [24:09.000 --> 24:10.000] Thanks for asking. [24:10.000 --> 24:15.000] And behind the Royal chuckle brothers routine, it's clear William longs [24:15.000 --> 24:17.000] for his own chance to serve in Helmand. [24:17.000 --> 24:21.000] I didn't join the forces to be, like I said a lot of times before, molly [24:21.000 --> 24:25.000] huddled or treated any different and as far as I'm concerned, in my [24:25.000 --> 24:27.000] eyes, if Harry can do it, then I can do it. [24:27.000 --> 24:31.000] I don't really separate us in that much difference and I think as future [24:31.000 --> 24:35.000] head of the armed forces it's really important that I at least get the [24:35.000 --> 24:39.000] opportunity to be credible and to do the job that I signed up for and to [24:39.000 --> 24:40.000] do the best I can. [24:40.000 --> 24:43.000] It's actually out of the question that the second in line would be put at [24:43.000 --> 24:47.000] risk on the front line and William will lose no respect inside or outside [24:47.000 --> 24:51.000] the military for being forbidden combat duty. [24:51.000 --> 24:55.000] Whether his brother grabs more glory depends on how he progresses here [24:55.000 --> 24:59.000] in the full knowledge that one in six army pilots failed to make the [24:59.000 --> 25:00.000] grade. [25:00.000 --> 25:03.000] Jeff Meade, Sky News, RAF Shorbury. [25:03.000 --> 25:04.000] This is Sky News. [25:04.000 --> 25:08.000] On our website, skynews.com, the Afghan immigrant who got access to [25:08.000 --> 25:13.000] Sandhurst after stowing away on a coach. [25:13.000 --> 25:17.000] Sky News and Northern Ireland make a breakthrough on decommissioning [25:17.000 --> 25:21.000] their weapons and more freedom for the Gurkhas, this time in a [25:21.000 --> 25:28.000] southern seaside town. [25:28.000 --> 25:30.000] I do watch Sky News a lot. [25:30.000 --> 25:32.000] I've got to say, it gets on Sarah's nerves. [25:32.000 --> 25:34.000] Sky News, what do you watch Sky News for? [25:34.000 --> 25:37.000] I need to know what's going on before anybody else. [25:37.000 --> 25:45.000] Is that one of those adverts?

[26:08.000 --> 26:11.000] It's our way of saying thank you for banking with us. [26:11.000 --> 26:15.000] A little extra help from Halifax.

[28:09.000 --> 28:14.000] Expedition Africa premieres tonight from 8 on History and History HD. [28:14.000 --> 28:17.000] It's believed loyalist groups in Northern Ireland have started [28:17.000 --> 28:19.000] decommissioning their weapons. [28:19.000 --> 28:22.000] They've been under pressure to give up their guns after being set an [28:22.000 --> 28:24.000] August deadline by the government. [28:24.000 --> 28:27.000] Sky's Vicky Hawthorne is at Hillsborough Castle for us tonight. [28:27.000 --> 28:30.000] A major breakthrough, it seems, Vicky. [28:30.000 --> 28:31.000] Yes, indeed. [28:31.000 --> 28:35.000] All the indications are that, indeed, loyalist paramilitary groups [28:35.000 --> 28:37.000] have begun decommissioning. [28:37.000 --> 28:41.000] I understand that the Ulster Volunteer Force has made the biggest [28:41.000 --> 28:45.000] move in decommissioning and the Ulster Defence Association, the UDA, [28:45.000 --> 28:49.000] isn't far behind making similar moves. [28:49.000 --> 28:51.000] This all came out earlier today. [28:51.000 --> 28:54.000] The government, nor the decommissioning body, which was set [28:54.000 --> 28:58.000] up to monitor the decommissioning of weapons, have been able to [28:58.000 --> 29:00.000] confirm any of this. [29:00.000 --> 29:03.000] But the Secretary of State, Sean Woodward, felt that it was [29:03.000 --> 29:04.000] obviously significant enough. [29:04.000 --> 29:07.000] He was prepared to give a press conference here at Hillsborough [29:07.000 --> 29:10.000] Castle, his official residence, earlier this afternoon. [29:10.000 --> 29:12.000] And this is what he had to say. [29:12.000 --> 29:17.000] If these reports were to be confirmed, they would demonstrate [29:17.000 --> 29:21.000] a major act of decommissioning by loyalism. [29:21.000 --> 29:25.000] And secondly, what they demonstrate, if they are confirmed, [29:25.000 --> 29:29.000] is that politics in Northern Ireland is working. [29:29.000 --> 29:33.000] All of the armed organisations should follow suit. [29:33.000 --> 29:37.000] And I hope that we are into a circumstance where all that is [29:37.000 --> 29:38.000] happening. [29:38.000 --> 29:42.000] I think it shows that most people, as can be seen in the number of [29:42.000 --> 29:48.000] elections which have occurred, have faith in the process. [29:48.000 --> 29:52.000] While this has not been officially confirmed, the general feeling is [29:52.000 --> 29:56.000] that there is definitely something afoot with loyalist decommissioning. [29:56.000 --> 29:58.000] I put some background to this. [29:58.000 --> 30:02.000] The IRA completed decommissioning in 2005 and ever since then the [30:02.000 --> 30:06.000] loyalists have been under serious pressure to follow that and to make [30:06.000 --> 30:09.000] sure that there are significant steps towards decommissioning. [30:09.000 --> 30:12.000] It all looks like this is exactly what is happening and we may have [30:12.000 --> 30:15.000] official confirmation of this within the next few days. [30:15.000 --> 30:17.000] Vicky, thanks very much indeed. [30:17.000 --> 30:19.000] Top stories for you on Live at Five. [30:19.000 --> 30:22.000] Now, Sir Fred Goodwin is to hand back a large part of his pension. [30:22.000 --> 30:26.000] As revealed on Sky News, the disgraced banker will now take home [30:26.000 --> 30:32.000] £340,000 a year, but he keeps a multimillion-pound lump sum. [30:32.000 --> 30:35.000] Conservative leader David Cameron is to pay back almost a thousand [30:35.000 --> 30:38.000] pounds in wrongly claimed expenses. [30:38.000 --> 30:41.000] Iran's defeated presidential candidate Mia Hussein Mousavi has [30:41.000 --> 30:45.000] appeared on a sixth day of protests in Tehran. [30:49.000 --> 30:54.000] This afternoon over Hong Kong, we expect to see a downpour of vintage [30:54.000 --> 30:58.000] champagne. [30:58.000 --> 31:01.000] Well, our weather currently is still a little bit changeable, but it's [31:01.000 --> 31:03.000] getting better by the day. [31:03.000 --> 31:06.000] As we go into next week, high pressure should be taking over and [31:06.000 --> 31:09.000] temperatures will be lifting nicely as well. [31:09.000 --> 31:13.000] These showers led all down to an area of low pressure close to Scotland. [31:13.000 --> 31:16.000] Some of those showers have been quite heavy through the course of the [31:16.000 --> 31:18.000] day and indeed thundery. [31:18.000 --> 31:20.000] We've seen one or two down towards the south as well. [31:20.000 --> 31:22.000] In fact, this is where we've got the thicker cloud. [31:22.000 --> 31:24.000] You can see elsewhere better breaks in that cloud. [31:24.000 --> 31:27.000] But temperatures have still reached around 20, 21 degrees Celsius, [31:27.000 --> 31:29.000] that's 70 degrees Fahrenheit. [31:29.000 --> 31:32.000] There's our low centre at the moment and the rather brisk winds [31:32.000 --> 31:33.000] that go with it. [31:33.000 --> 31:36.000] And that's going to track its way slowly eastwards overnight. [31:36.000 --> 31:40.000] So those showers really tending to make their way across to eastern [31:40.000 --> 31:43.000] parts of Scotland to be followed by a few more showers into the north [31:43.000 --> 31:45.000] and west first thing on Friday morning. [31:45.000 --> 31:48.000] But generally, we should see a lot of that cloud disappear from [31:48.000 --> 31:49.000] southern parts. [31:49.000 --> 31:51.000] So brighter skies to start the day. [31:51.000 --> 31:53.000] And of course, temperatures will respond to that. [31:53.000 --> 31:56.000] We're looking at temperatures at around 20, 21 degrees Celsius on [31:56.000 --> 31:59.000] the day, that's 70 degrees Fahrenheit. [31:59.000 --> 32:05.000] Qatar Airways, world's five-star airline. [32:05.000 --> 32:08.000] Well, more now on the government's apparent U-turn on its plans to [32:08.000 --> 32:11.000] hold an inquiry into the Iraq war in private. [32:11.000 --> 32:14.000] Some hearings now will be held publicly after Gordon Brown came [32:14.000 --> 32:18.000] under heavy criticism today, not least from former Prime Minister [32:18.000 --> 32:22.000] Sir John Major, who described the initial plans as inexplicable. [32:22.000 --> 32:24.000] And Sir John joins me now live from Westminster. [32:24.000 --> 32:28.000] Sir John Major, why do you think that plan was inexplicable? [32:28.000 --> 32:31.000] Well, you have here with the Iraq war something that was very [32:31.000 --> 32:33.000] controversial. [32:33.000 --> 32:36.000] There are some elements of it that are still not clear to people. [32:36.000 --> 32:37.000] Was the war legal? [32:37.000 --> 32:39.000] What advice was given to the government? [32:39.000 --> 32:40.000] How did they deal with it? [32:40.000 --> 32:42.000] They're crucial questions. [32:42.000 --> 32:44.000] There are further questions as well. [32:44.000 --> 32:46.000] Did we actually go to war on a false premise? [32:46.000 --> 32:49.000] What will be told about the weapons of mass destruction? [32:49.000 --> 32:52.000] Now, those are issues that are very controversial. [32:52.000 --> 32:55.000] And in the government's own interests, we need to make sure [32:55.000 --> 32:58.000] that those are settled and put to rest. [32:58.000 --> 33:02.000] And holding an inquiry largely behind closed doors, which was what [33:02.000 --> 33:06.000] was originally anticipated, would certainly have just given rise to [33:06.000 --> 33:09.000] more and more rumours and more and more discontent. [33:09.000 --> 33:12.000] In the government's own interests, I thought that was a very silly [33:12.000 --> 33:13.000] decision. [33:13.000 --> 33:16.000] Who ought to decide then which elements remain confidential, [33:16.000 --> 33:18.000] which bits remain in camera? [33:18.000 --> 33:21.000] Because inevitably there will be evidence coming from, for instance, [33:21.000 --> 33:24.000] senior intelligence sources, which in the national interest ought to [33:24.000 --> 33:25.000] stay private. [33:25.000 --> 33:27.000] I entirely agree with that. [33:27.000 --> 33:29.000] I don't think anyone disagrees with that. [33:29.000 --> 33:30.000] Of course there are. [33:30.000 --> 33:33.000] But I think the general presumption should be public, that the [33:33.000 --> 33:36.000] hearings should be in public, with the hearings closed when the [33:36.000 --> 33:39.000] chairman and the committee judge that it's in the national interest [33:39.000 --> 33:40.000] for them to be so. [33:40.000 --> 33:41.000] I think they're best placed. [33:41.000 --> 33:43.000] They know what questions they're going to ask. [33:43.000 --> 33:45.000] They know the responsibilities of the witness. [33:45.000 --> 33:46.000] They're cross-examining. [33:46.000 --> 33:49.000] So I think they're the people to make the decision. [33:49.000 --> 33:52.000] But overall, essentially, the presumption must be that the [33:52.000 --> 33:56.000] inquiry is in public if it is to carry the force with the public [33:56.000 --> 33:58.000] that everyone hopes that it will have. [33:58.000 --> 34:00.000] Let us get this matter solved. [34:00.000 --> 34:04.000] What we don't want is a legacy of suspicion hanging over for years [34:04.000 --> 34:07.000] so that next time a future government may be in a position of [34:07.000 --> 34:11.000] having to send troops into conflict, everyone knows that what is [34:11.000 --> 34:14.000] being done is entirely above board and the government's word is [34:14.000 --> 34:17.000] instinctively and unquestioningly trusted. [34:17.000 --> 34:20.000] That's what we must hope will come out of this inquiry. [34:20.000 --> 34:24.000] But to ensure that, we first need the inquiry. [34:24.000 --> 34:28.000] Is there a danger that if this inquiry is fully public, we [34:28.000 --> 34:32.000] effectively offer a licence for grandstanding, for posturing? [34:32.000 --> 34:34.000] It becomes more political. [34:34.000 --> 34:37.000] Well, I'm not quite sure the sort of witnesses they're going to have, [34:37.000 --> 34:40.000] who is actually going to do the posturing and being political. [34:40.000 --> 34:43.000] Well, for instance, some of the relatives of those combatants... [34:43.000 --> 34:46.000] I don't think the sort of people they're going to be interviewing [34:46.000 --> 34:47.000] are going to take that view. [34:47.000 --> 34:50.000] If they are, I think the experience of the chairman and the committee [34:50.000 --> 34:52.000] will soon cut them down to size. [34:52.000 --> 34:53.000] But you have a choice. [34:53.000 --> 34:57.000] Even if one or two people postured, is that worse than a large part of [34:57.000 --> 35:01.000] the public not being satisfied with the outcome of this inquiry? [35:01.000 --> 35:03.000] I would argue not. [35:03.000 --> 35:07.000] What is necessary at the end of this inquiry is to put to rest the [35:07.000 --> 35:11.000] suspicions and uncertainties that have lingered about how this war [35:11.000 --> 35:14.000] began from the very outset of it. [35:14.000 --> 35:17.000] Is there a sense in which the inquiry, in becoming public, becomes [35:17.000 --> 35:21.000] a cathartic exercise for the relatives of those combatants who lost [35:21.000 --> 35:22.000] their lives? [35:22.000 --> 35:25.000] Well, I think you touch on an extremely important point. [35:25.000 --> 35:29.000] I think it is very important for the families and friends of those [35:29.000 --> 35:33.000] servicemen who were killed or wounded, in many cases very seriously [35:33.000 --> 35:34.000] maimed. [35:34.000 --> 35:37.000] I think they need some form of closure. [35:37.000 --> 35:40.000] And I think the form of closure, you use the word cathartic, I think I [35:40.000 --> 35:44.000] would refer to it as closure, can best be done by an inquiry that [35:44.000 --> 35:48.000] examines the veracities of the war, how it came about, how it was [35:48.000 --> 35:51.000] conducted, and finally puts the whole matter to rest. [35:51.000 --> 35:55.000] So I think, yes, you are right, it will be cathartic and I think it [35:55.000 --> 35:56.000] will offer closure. [35:56.000 --> 36:00.000] And that, I think, is a very important part of the reason for having [36:00.000 --> 36:01.000] this inquiry. [36:01.000 --> 36:04.000] That closure could come at a tremendous price, couldn't it? [36:04.000 --> 36:07.000] In cost terms, we think of the Bloody Sunday inquiry, we look at [36:07.000 --> 36:10.000] something that has become a very protracted process, it has gone on [36:10.000 --> 36:13.000] for an awful long time, and it has cost the taxpayer an enormous [36:13.000 --> 36:14.000] amount of money. [36:14.000 --> 36:18.000] Well, I don't think we are likely to see a replication of the Bloody [36:18.000 --> 36:21.000] Sunday fiasco, which, as you say, went on a very long time. [36:21.000 --> 36:24.000] I think the general presumption from the Prime Minister downwards is [36:24.000 --> 36:27.000] that this is an inquiry that will proceed quite speedily and report [36:27.000 --> 36:28.000] quite speedily. [36:28.000 --> 36:32.000] Personally, I regret it didn't begin two years ago when I first [36:32.000 --> 36:33.000] advocated that it should. [36:33.000 --> 36:36.000] But nonetheless, I don't think it is going to replicate that. [36:36.000 --> 36:39.000] The lessons of the Bloody Sunday inquiry, I think, have been well [36:39.000 --> 36:40.000] learned. [36:40.000 --> 36:43.000] And how would you characterise, finally, the Prime Minister's [36:43.000 --> 36:45.000] handling of this announcement? [36:45.000 --> 36:47.000] Well, I'm baffled, to be frank. [36:47.000 --> 36:52.000] I'm baffled that it was so unclear to him that it would not meet the [36:52.000 --> 36:55.000] government's own purpose if they had this in private. [36:55.000 --> 36:59.000] The government's purpose is to settle this and push it to one side [36:59.000 --> 37:00.000] for once and all. [37:00.000 --> 37:03.000] Having it in private simply wouldn't have done that. [37:03.000 --> 37:07.000] And I simply can't begin to imagine how they thought that it would. [37:07.000 --> 37:08.000] Sir John Major, thank you. [37:08.000 --> 37:09.000] Thank you. [37:09.000 --> 37:11.000] This is Sky News coming up for you. [37:11.000 --> 37:12.000] Payback time. [37:12.000 --> 37:15.000] Geoff Randall, a wife, Fred the Shred, is giving up part of his [37:15.000 --> 37:16.000] pension. [37:16.000 --> 37:41.000] You're live at five. [37:41.000 --> 37:57.000] What really matters to you, something that is made with [37:57.000 --> 38:04.000] precision and care, which is beautifully designed but at the [38:04.000 --> 38:09.000] same time gives you real value now and for the future. [38:09.000 --> 38:13.000] The i10, i20 and i30 from Hyundai. [38:13.000 --> 38:16.000] True quality matters. [38:16.000 --> 38:20.000] With our five-year unlimited mileage warranty. [38:20.000 --> 38:23.000] Hyundai. [38:23.000 --> 38:29.000] We're all around you, though you won't always see us. [38:29.000 --> 38:30.000] We're in your cars. [38:30.000 --> 38:32.000] We're in your phones. [38:32.000 --> 38:34.000] We're in your homes and your offices. [38:34.000 --> 38:38.000] We're in your building sites and your power plants. [38:38.000 --> 38:41.000] We're in the hard drives that store all those photographs you'll [38:41.000 --> 38:44.000] never actually get around to sorting. [38:44.000 --> 38:46.000] We're on your trains. [38:46.000 --> 38:51.000] We're even in the supermarket where you bought your toothpaste. [38:51.000 --> 38:55.000] So it's reassuring to know that a company that touches so much of [38:55.000 --> 39:04.000] the environment is doing everything it can to help preserve it too. [39:04.000 --> 39:08.000] On Thursday, 120 1,000-milligram of glucosamine sulfate tablets [39:08.000 --> 39:12.000] would have cost you £15.64 at Superdrug. [39:12.000 --> 39:15.000] You could get them for £9.99 at Holland & Barrett. [39:15.000 --> 39:19.000] That's £5.65 less. [39:19.000 --> 39:25.000] Compare and grab it, Holland & Barrett. [39:25.000 --> 39:29.000] Many are considered, but few are chosen. [39:29.000 --> 39:34.000] You have an awesome responsibility. [39:34.000 --> 39:39.000] To win for the Lions in South Africa is the ultimate. [39:39.000 --> 39:44.000] The moment's arriving for the greatest game of your lives. [39:44.000 --> 39:46.000] This is your Everest. [39:46.000 --> 39:53.000] The Lions v South Africa with HSBC, Saturday at 1, Sky Sports 1 and HD 1. [39:53.000 --> 39:56.000] So as revealed today on Sky News, Sir Fred Goodwin will now take home [39:56.000 --> 40:01.000] a £340,000 a year pension that keeps a multimillion-pound lump sum. [40:01.000 --> 40:03.000] The story broken by our business presenter, Jeff Randall, [40:03.000 --> 40:05.000] who is here to talk about it. [40:05.000 --> 40:07.000] Why has he done this, Jeff? [40:07.000 --> 40:10.000] Well, look at it from Fred Goodwin's point of view. [40:10.000 --> 40:14.000] OK, he had a massive pension, £703,000, [40:14.000 --> 40:18.000] but his life and that of his family had become intolerable. [40:18.000 --> 40:21.000] He had become the demon figure for financial greed. [40:21.000 --> 40:26.000] He had become the personification, really, of the banking collapse. [40:26.000 --> 40:30.000] His house had been pelted, his kids had been taken out of school. [40:30.000 --> 40:32.000] He'd become a pariah. You cannot go on like that. [40:32.000 --> 40:35.000] And I think he had taken advice from lots of people, [40:35.000 --> 40:38.000] some professionals, some personal, saying a gesture is required [40:38.000 --> 40:42.000] and it can't just be a few grand in the Salvation Army kitty. [40:42.000 --> 40:44.000] You've got to do something proper. [40:44.000 --> 40:48.000] And I think the voices that were talking to Fred always thought [40:48.000 --> 40:51.000] that about half would be right. [40:51.000 --> 40:54.000] And, you know, in the wash here, it's a slightly complicated deal, [40:54.000 --> 40:56.000] but it is about half. [40:56.000 --> 40:58.000] He was going to get £703,000. [40:58.000 --> 41:00.000] He's now shed over £340,000, [41:00.000 --> 41:03.000] but he does have the lump sum which he's taken out up front. [41:03.000 --> 41:05.000] We've talked before, haven't we, [41:05.000 --> 41:07.000] about how he'd become a bogeyman for politicians, [41:07.000 --> 41:09.000] and the full weight of the state, in a sense, [41:09.000 --> 41:11.000] was bearing down on him as he became this bogeyman figure. [41:11.000 --> 41:13.000] But it wasn't just him that was suffering. [41:13.000 --> 41:16.000] Our correspondent in Edinburgh today was talking about his two boys [41:16.000 --> 41:18.000] and some of their colleagues at the school, [41:18.000 --> 41:20.000] and their parents had suffered at RBS, [41:20.000 --> 41:23.000] and it was affecting, as you say, his entire family. [41:23.000 --> 41:26.000] Completely, and, you know, Fred was obsessed with work, [41:26.000 --> 41:29.000] but he does have a family life, he does have a conscience, [41:29.000 --> 41:31.000] and this was just intolerable. [41:31.000 --> 41:34.000] You cannot go on like this unless you are so hard-hearted, [41:34.000 --> 41:36.000] so flinty that you say stuff them all, [41:36.000 --> 41:38.000] and clearly he wasn't going to do that. [41:38.000 --> 41:41.000] I think the other thing is also that Fred, he's only 50. [41:41.000 --> 41:44.000] I think he believes that he still has a role to play somewhere [41:44.000 --> 41:46.000] in business life. [41:46.000 --> 41:49.000] He did not have an opening while this was hanging over him. [41:49.000 --> 41:52.000] He had to have closure, as we heard in the previous interview. [41:52.000 --> 41:55.000] Closure is very important to problems of this scale. [41:55.000 --> 41:57.000] Now, I think there will be closure. [41:57.000 --> 41:59.000] The unions will kick up a fuss, and you can see why. [41:59.000 --> 42:01.000] I'm not saying that their complaints are unjustified, [42:01.000 --> 42:03.000] but I think that they will dribble away. [42:03.000 --> 42:06.000] The key players in all this, the government, the UKFI, [42:06.000 --> 42:08.000] which looks after our investments, [42:08.000 --> 42:11.000] the bank itself and Sir Fred, I think, have done a deal, [42:11.000 --> 42:13.000] and they will say, we'll move on. [42:13.000 --> 42:16.000] It's one thing for protesters to stop putting his front window [42:16.000 --> 42:19.000] through, it's quite another for serious business people [42:19.000 --> 42:22.000] to welcome him onto the board of a big company. [42:22.000 --> 42:25.000] This is, after all, a man whose pariah status was such [42:25.000 --> 42:27.000] that he was effectively blackballed from membership [42:27.000 --> 42:29.000] at a well-known golf club. [42:29.000 --> 42:31.000] Yes, he was. [42:31.000 --> 42:33.000] Well, there is a precedent. [42:33.000 --> 42:36.000] Andy Hornby, who ran HBOS, another bank that all but collapsed, [42:36.000 --> 42:40.000] he has now been welcomed back as the chief executive of Boots. [42:40.000 --> 42:43.000] Not to universal acclaim? [42:43.000 --> 42:46.000] Not to universal acclaim, but he's got away with it, [42:46.000 --> 42:48.000] and I don't think he was...he wasn't shredded, [42:48.000 --> 42:50.000] to use that phrase, in the press. [42:50.000 --> 42:52.000] Some people said that he was a very good retailer [42:52.000 --> 42:55.000] who played at banking and now has gone back to retail. [42:55.000 --> 42:57.000] I think there is a big difference. [42:57.000 --> 42:59.000] HBOS was never Andy Hornby's bank. [42:59.000 --> 43:02.000] He was someone who got out of his depth and was running HBOS. [43:02.000 --> 43:06.000] He wasn't inextricably linked with the personality of that bank. [43:06.000 --> 43:09.000] Unfortunately for Fred Goodwin, he was linked with RBS. [43:09.000 --> 43:11.000] It was Fred's bank. It was his deal. [43:11.000 --> 43:14.000] And in that sense, it's going to be harder to find a way back. [43:14.000 --> 43:16.000] Jeff, thanks very much indeed. [43:16.000 --> 43:19.000] More from Jeff on that story, of course, on his programme tonight, 7.30. [43:19.000 --> 43:21.000] Now, after forcing the government to change the rules [43:21.000 --> 43:23.000] on settling in the UK last month, [43:23.000 --> 43:25.000] the Gurkhas have had further cause to celebrate. [43:25.000 --> 43:28.000] They were given the freedom of Folkestone in Kent [43:28.000 --> 43:30.000] in front of a 10,000-strong crowd. [43:30.000 --> 43:33.000] Sky's David Bowden was there. [43:35.000 --> 43:38.000] The sun shone brightly and the crowds turned out in droves [43:38.000 --> 43:41.000] as the Gurkhas were given the freedom of Folkestone. [43:41.000 --> 43:44.000] More than 600 men from the 2nd Battalion, [43:44.000 --> 43:47.000] just back from a gruelling tour of Afghanistan, [43:47.000 --> 43:50.000] proudly marched through the seaside town. [43:50.000 --> 43:55.000] Fantastic. All children, everything, Folkestone, [43:55.000 --> 44:00.000] all the people here, it's absolutely fantastic. [44:00.000 --> 44:02.000] Must make you feel immensely proud. [44:02.000 --> 44:04.000] Oh, yes, really, really proud. [44:04.000 --> 44:07.000] Also, there are Gurkhas who can no longer march, [44:07.000 --> 44:10.000] their legs blown off by Taliban mines, [44:10.000 --> 44:12.000] but their spirits still strong. [44:12.000 --> 44:18.000] I feel very happy and proud that the public supports us so much. [44:18.000 --> 44:21.000] I loved it. [44:21.000 --> 44:24.000] For the crowd, a chance to say a personal thanks [44:24.000 --> 44:28.000] to this unique band of brothers who put their lives on the line, [44:28.000 --> 44:31.000] not for their own country, but for ours. [44:31.000 --> 44:34.000] I've lived in Folkestone all my life [44:34.000 --> 44:38.000] and it just gives me such enormous pride to be here. [44:38.000 --> 44:41.000] The Gurkhas have been with us for what, 200, 300 years? [44:41.000 --> 44:44.000] Marvelous, absolutely marvelous. [44:44.000 --> 44:48.000] I tell you what, gets you there, absolutely. [44:48.000 --> 44:52.000] For these Gurkhas, this is a day of celebration and pride, [44:52.000 --> 44:54.000] but also one of sadness. [44:54.000 --> 44:57.000] They, like many other units who served in Afghanistan, [44:57.000 --> 45:00.000] have lost comrades in the fight against the Taliban. [45:00.000 --> 45:02.000] There'll be no homecoming parade for them. [45:04.000 --> 45:07.000] No Gurkha event these days, it seems, is complete [45:07.000 --> 45:09.000] without an appearance by Joanna Lumley, [45:09.000 --> 45:13.000] who's brought the bravery of these Nepalese fighting men to the fore. [45:13.000 --> 45:16.000] I think it's just such a sign of respect from our country [45:16.000 --> 45:18.000] and I think it's absolutely thrilling. [45:18.000 --> 45:21.000] I'm so proud of Folkestone for doing this grand thing, [45:21.000 --> 45:25.000] both for the serving soldiers and for the retired soldiers. [45:25.000 --> 45:27.000] I think it means so much and it's really part of... [45:27.000 --> 45:31.000] It's a sort of microcosm of what our country wants to say to these Gurkhas. [45:31.000 --> 45:34.000] You are so welcome. We're so honoured to have you amongst us. [45:34.000 --> 45:38.000] It took just a quarter of an hour for the quick-stepping Gurkhas [45:38.000 --> 45:41.000] to complete the mile-and-a-quarter march through Folkestone [45:41.000 --> 45:46.000] before returning to their barracks to be presented with their campaign medals. [45:46.000 --> 45:50.000] For each and every one of them, an unforgettable day. [45:50.000 --> 45:55.000] Though for the wives of Corporal Kumar Poon and Colour Sergeant Krishnadura, [45:55.000 --> 45:58.000] the Gurkhas who were killed in Afghanistan, [45:58.000 --> 46:01.000] the memories will be altogether different. [46:01.000 --> 46:05.000] David Bowden, Sky News, with the Gurkhas in Folkestone. [46:05.000 --> 46:07.000] Top stories on Live at 5 for you. [46:07.000 --> 46:10.000] Sir Fred Goodwin is to hand back a huge part of his pension. [46:10.000 --> 46:13.000] As revealed on Sky News, the disgraced banker will now take home [46:13.000 --> 46:18.000] £340,000 a year, but he keeps a multimillion-pound lump sum. [46:18.000 --> 46:21.000] The Conservative leader David Cameron is to pay back [46:21.000 --> 46:24.000] almost £1,000 in wrongly claimed expenses. [46:24.000 --> 46:27.000] And Iran's defeated presidential candidate Mia Hussein Mousavi [46:27.000 --> 46:32.000] has appeared on a sixth day of protests in Tehran. [46:32.000 --> 46:35.000] This is Sky News. Coming up at 6, we're live in Salford, [46:35.000 --> 46:40.000] where Hazel Blears could be deselected as an MP tonight. [46:40.000 --> 46:42.000] Who's rocking the boat? [46:42.000 --> 46:44.000] And up next, who's in, who's out, [46:44.000 --> 46:47.000] for the Lions' team to play South Africa. [46:49.000 --> 46:52.000] Jeff Hoon has just announced that he's going to step down. [46:52.000 --> 46:54.000] No, the new cabinet has not actually. [46:54.000 --> 46:57.000] I mean, I know Sky is always, at all times, very ahead of the games, [46:57.000 --> 47:00.000] but actually it's not been fully announced yet. [47:00.000 --> 47:23.000] I think that he's about to be announced from number two. [47:30.000 --> 47:35.000] Brand new house, Sunday at 9, Sky 1 and Sky 1 HD. [48:00.000 --> 48:02.000] Having trouble getting hooked up there, mate? [48:02.000 --> 48:05.000] I'm all sixes and sevens today. Got money on my mind. [48:05.000 --> 48:07.000] Jane and I don't know where to start. [48:07.000 --> 48:10.000] That's simple. Have you tried Ocean? [48:10.000 --> 48:13.000] We're refinancing, Bob. Not deep sea fishing. [48:13.000 --> 48:16.000] Ocean Finance. They've even got a TV channel, [48:16.000 --> 48:19.000] so you can look before you try. [48:21.000 --> 48:23.000] Hey, love, guess what? [48:23.000 --> 48:26.000] Look, Ocean Finance have got a TV channel. [48:26.000 --> 48:30.000] Yeah, figures. Now there's an idea. [48:35.000 --> 48:38.000] I need new glasses, but how can I afford them? [48:38.000 --> 48:40.000] Hey, just say. [48:40.000 --> 48:44.000] How can I keep up with the family's dental check-ups? [48:44.000 --> 48:46.000] Hey, just say. [48:46.000 --> 48:49.000] Want cash back towards dental, optical and other health care bills? [48:49.000 --> 48:51.000] Hey, just say. [48:51.000 --> 48:53.000] Hey, just say. [48:53.000 --> 48:56.000] Our health cash plans help spread the cost [48:56.000 --> 48:58.000] and start at just $2.25 a week. [48:58.000 --> 49:24.000] Call now on 0800 0854 321 and get one month free. [49:28.000 --> 49:30.000] Use your enamel day after day. [49:30.000 --> 49:32.000] To help protect against acid erosion, [49:32.000 --> 49:36.000] start using Colgate Sensitive Enamel Protect. [49:36.000 --> 49:39.000] Yeah, I'm in Sainsbury's. Yeah, I'm done. [49:39.000 --> 49:41.000] Hang on a minute. [49:41.000 --> 49:44.000] Sainsbury's has lowered thousands of prices on big name brands, [49:44.000 --> 49:46.000] so you might need a trolley. [49:53.000 --> 49:55.000] Dan Lobs here to reflect on the sport, [49:55.000 --> 49:58.000] and in particular the fact that it's the Lions' first test on Saturday. [49:58.000 --> 50:00.000] Dan, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. [50:00.000 --> 50:02.000] I'm sorry, I'm sorry. [50:02.000 --> 50:04.000] I'm sorry, I'm sorry. [50:04.000 --> 50:06.000] I'm sorry, I'm sorry. [50:06.000 --> 50:08.000] I'm sorry, I'm sorry. [50:08.000 --> 50:10.000] I'm sorry, I'm sorry. [50:10.000 --> 50:13.000] The Lions' first test on Saturday has come around quickly. [50:13.000 --> 50:16.000] Yeah, they've been out there since the 30th of May. [50:16.000 --> 50:18.000] They've had six matches, they've won all six, [50:18.000 --> 50:21.000] and the British and Irish Lions have finally named their team [50:21.000 --> 50:23.000] to face South Africa for that first test, [50:23.000 --> 50:25.000] as Colin was saying, on Saturday. [50:25.000 --> 50:27.000] There's the team in full. [50:27.000 --> 50:29.000] No real surprises in the selection. [50:29.000 --> 50:31.000] The toughest decision made by coach Ian McGeekin, [50:31.000 --> 50:34.000] he had to make, was who to choose in the back row. [50:34.000 --> 50:38.000] He went for Tom Croft, David Wallace and Jamie Heslip. [50:38.000 --> 50:40.000] There's a consensus of six Welshmen, five Irishmen, [50:40.000 --> 50:44.000] four Englishmen, no Scots in the 22. [50:44.000 --> 50:46.000] This is the first of three tests. [50:46.000 --> 50:49.000] The Lions hoping to emulate what they achieved under McGeekin [50:49.000 --> 50:51.000] back in 1997. [50:51.000 --> 50:55.000] After the announcement, the coach explained his selections. [50:55.000 --> 50:58.000] When you're playing a test match, [50:58.000 --> 51:00.000] and I know you'll tell me I've done it in the past, [51:00.000 --> 51:02.000] but I think where we could, [51:02.000 --> 51:07.000] we wanted to be having players playing in their number one positions. [51:07.000 --> 51:11.000] And, you know, that's what we've tried to do. [51:11.000 --> 51:15.000] I think we know we'll be playing at a different level on Saturday, [51:15.000 --> 51:19.000] and I think, you know, it's important that we try and give them [51:19.000 --> 51:21.000] that opportunity. [51:23.000 --> 51:26.000] Those warm-up games, they've been in fabulous form. [51:26.000 --> 51:28.000] They've taken quite a lot of physical stick, [51:28.000 --> 51:30.000] particularly the last game, didn't they? [51:30.000 --> 51:32.000] Yeah, absolutely, against the Kings. [51:32.000 --> 51:34.000] There were some doubts over a couple of players. [51:34.000 --> 51:36.000] They were always expecting a tough encounter, [51:36.000 --> 51:38.000] going to South Africa and playing those provincial sides, [51:38.000 --> 51:40.000] but they've come through magnificently well. [51:40.000 --> 51:42.000] Six out of six. [51:42.000 --> 51:44.000] But I think it's a step up now, isn't it? [51:44.000 --> 51:46.000] Yeah, it really is. [51:46.000 --> 51:48.000] Especially seeing it's three tests. [51:48.000 --> 51:51.000] This first test really set the tone for the rest of the tour, [51:51.000 --> 51:54.000] but fingers crossed for a good performance from the Lions on Saturday. [51:54.000 --> 51:56.000] Let's move on to the golf show. [51:56.000 --> 51:58.000] It's day one at the US Open. [51:58.000 --> 52:00.000] Weather, though, has already intervened at the Bethpage Black [52:00.000 --> 52:02.000] course in upstate New York. [52:02.000 --> 52:05.000] Players being suspended because the course is waterlogged. [52:05.000 --> 52:08.000] Tiger Woods completed six holes before range start played [52:08.000 --> 52:10.000] and had an event full-time. [52:10.000 --> 52:15.000] Defending champion hit this wayward tee shot at the par four fifth, [52:15.000 --> 52:19.000] which led to eight double bogey in the end. [52:19.000 --> 52:23.000] But he hit straight back at the next, a birdie three, [52:23.000 --> 52:28.000] leaving him one over, two shots off the leads. [52:28.000 --> 52:32.000] History was made on ladies' day at Royal Ascot in the feature race, [52:32.000 --> 52:35.000] the gold cup, the six to four favourite Yates became the first [52:35.000 --> 52:38.000] horse to win the race for a fourth year in a row. [52:38.000 --> 52:41.000] The eight-year-olds, ridden by Johnny Murta, came home three [52:41.000 --> 52:44.000] and a half lengths clear of Padkai at nine to two. [52:44.000 --> 52:53.000] Jordi Land at 11 to four was third, a further 15 lengths adrift. [52:53.000 --> 52:56.000] South Africa playing Pakistan in the first semi-final of the World [52:56.000 --> 52:59.000] 2020, this one being played at Trent Bridge. [52:59.000 --> 53:02.000] This was the first wicket. [53:02.000 --> 53:04.000] Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat. [53:04.000 --> 53:08.000] Shahzab Hassan caught wonderfully well by Vandermeer off the [53:08.000 --> 53:11.000] boning of Wayne Parnell for a duck. [53:11.000 --> 53:13.000] Cameron Akmal has also fallen. [53:13.000 --> 53:16.000] Akmal making a quick five, 23 off just 12 balls. [53:16.000 --> 53:19.000] He was caught by Morkal off the boning of Dale Steyn. [53:19.000 --> 53:22.000] The latest score, I can tell you, four overs bowled. [53:22.000 --> 53:26.000] Pakistan are 32 for two. [53:26.000 --> 53:29.000] I'm going to talk football in just a moment, but it's worth [53:29.000 --> 53:32.000] mentioning while we're still on the cricket down that the former [53:32.000 --> 53:35.000] England pace man, Simon Jones, who of course had such a wonderful [53:35.000 --> 53:38.000] ashes 2005, part of that four very strong bowler attack, he's been [53:38.000 --> 53:41.000] ruled out the rest of the domestic season because of this knee [53:41.000 --> 53:42.000] injury. [53:42.000 --> 53:45.000] I'm guessing it's the recurring knee injury that has, frankly, [53:45.000 --> 53:47.000] blighted such a promising career. [53:47.000 --> 53:48.000] Absolutely. [53:48.000 --> 53:51.000] He's been plagued with injury and that particular knee injury for [53:51.000 --> 53:53.000] the majority of his career. [53:53.000 --> 53:56.000] I think he's, age-wise, times against him. [53:56.000 --> 54:00.000] It's a hard life for him in the old cricket world at the moment. [54:00.000 --> 54:02.000] That's a shame. [54:02.000 --> 54:05.000] For somebody for whom life has not always been hard, Kevin Keegan, [54:05.000 --> 54:07.000] the comeback kid. [54:07.000 --> 54:09.000] Could be, yes, on the cards. [54:09.000 --> 54:12.000] He might be going back to one of his former clubs as a player, [54:12.000 --> 54:13.000] Southampton. [54:13.000 --> 54:15.000] He was there back in the early 80s. [54:15.000 --> 54:17.000] Saints have had an awful time of late. [54:17.000 --> 54:20.000] They've been relegated down to League One. [54:20.000 --> 54:24.000] Reports that Kevin Keegan is linked with the consortium being led [54:24.000 --> 54:28.000] by Southampton legend Matt Letizier, which some suggest will [54:28.000 --> 54:30.000] definitely be taking the club over. [54:30.000 --> 54:33.000] And suggestions would point the finger at Kevin Keegan as becoming [54:33.000 --> 54:34.000] the next manager. [54:34.000 --> 54:37.000] We'll have to wait and see, but that would be a Keegan return to [54:37.000 --> 54:38.000] football, perhaps. [54:38.000 --> 54:39.000] Watch this space. [54:39.000 --> 54:41.000] Dan, thanks very much indeed. [54:41.000 --> 54:43.000] This is Sky News, coming up at six. [54:43.000 --> 54:44.000] Take it back. [54:44.000 --> 54:48.000] Fred the Shred finally agrees to hand back almost £350,000 a year in [54:48.000 --> 54:49.000] his pension. [54:49.000 --> 54:53.000] Plus, rallies continue in Iran over the disputed presidential election. [54:53.000 --> 54:56.000] Opposition candidate Musevi joins his supporters. [54:56.000 --> 54:59.000] And here are the Gurkhas, of course, for more celebrations with a [54:59.000 --> 55:27.000] special parade and a special guest. [55:59.000 --> 56:04.000] The IKEA sale. [56:04.000 --> 56:11.000] It won't last forever. [56:11.000 --> 56:14.000] It was an extraordinary time. [56:14.000 --> 56:17.000] Rationing. [56:17.000 --> 56:19.000] Bomb sites. [56:19.000 --> 56:24.000] Even the track was made from cinders from people's coal fires. [56:24.000 --> 56:29.000] A new rally. [56:29.000 --> 56:35.000] And somehow the impossible happened. [56:35.000 --> 56:38.000] No one knew then about climate change. [56:38.000 --> 56:43.000] But we can rise to this new challenge in the same way. [56:43.000 --> 56:44.000] Together. [56:44.000 --> 56:46.000] The games are awarded to London. [56:46.000 --> 56:50.000] London 2012 is our chance to lead the world in the fight against [56:50.000 --> 56:51.000] climate change. [56:51.000 --> 56:59.000] So on July 10th, EDF Energy are launching Green Britain Day. [56:59.000 --> 57:07.000] Join in at teamgreenbritain.org in association with the Eden Project. [57:07.000 --> 57:08.000] Where's your white shirt? [57:08.000 --> 57:09.000] I'm wearing it. [57:09.000 --> 57:10.000] But it's grey. [57:10.000 --> 57:11.000] I'm still stained. [57:11.000 --> 57:12.000] Don't worry. [57:12.000 --> 57:15.000] New Vanish Crystal White Intelligence Plus is perfect for removing [57:15.000 --> 57:19.000] tough stains and undoing the dullness repeated washing creates. [57:19.000 --> 57:22.000] To help stain-insure your laundry, just add a scoop to every wash. [57:22.000 --> 57:25.000] Unlike detergent alone, its stain-seeking technology finds and [57:25.000 --> 57:28.000] helps remove tough stains like this strawberry. [57:28.000 --> 57:29.000] See? [57:29.000 --> 57:30.000] Stains gone. [57:30.000 --> 57:31.000] And much whiter too. [57:31.000 --> 57:33.000] Games set a match to Vanish. [57:33.000 --> 57:34.000] Trust Pink. [57:34.000 --> 57:36.000] Forget stains. [57:36.000 --> 57:39.000] Imagine the ultimate music festival. [57:39.000 --> 57:40.000] No mud. [57:40.000 --> 57:42.000] No camping. [57:42.000 --> 57:43.000] No portaloos. [57:43.000 --> 57:45.000] And a dream line-up. [57:45.000 --> 57:47.000] The Who. [57:47.000 --> 57:48.000] Neil Young. [57:48.000 --> 57:49.000] Johnny Cash. [57:49.000 --> 57:50.000] Elvis. [57:50.000 --> 57:52.000] The Rolling Stones. [57:52.000 --> 57:53.000] Hendrix. [57:53.000 --> 57:54.000] Bob Marley. [57:54.000 --> 57:55.000] And many more. [57:55.000 --> 57:59.000] A weekend of awe-inspiring back-to-back performances. [57:59.000 --> 58:05.000] SofaFest starts Friday 26th June on SkyArts One and SkyArts One HD. [58:05.000 --> 58:08.000] Coming up on Sky News at six, all the big stories tonight, including [58:08.000 --> 58:12.000] Goodwin gives in, the former boss of RBS changes his mind on his [58:12.000 --> 58:15.000] pension payout and payback for Cameron as the Conservative leader [58:15.000 --> 58:18.000] fails to escape the expenses scandal. [58:18.000 --> 58:22.000] And royal competition as the Princes William and Harry take on [58:22.000 --> 58:27.000] pilot training together. [58:27.000 --> 58:32.000] This afternoon over Hong Kong, we expect to see a downpour of [58:32.000 --> 58:36.000] vintage champagne. [58:36.000 --> 58:37.000] Hello there. [58:37.000 --> 58:39.000] Well, we're going to see a gradual improvement in the weather [58:39.000 --> 58:40.000] over the weekend. [58:40.000 --> 58:42.000] And once the high pressure builds, it should stay with us through [58:42.000 --> 58:43.000] much of next week. [58:43.000 --> 58:45.000] But certainly today we've seen showers. [58:45.000 --> 58:47.000] Some of those showers really have been quite sharp, particularly [58:47.000 --> 58:49.000] up towards the north and the west. [58:49.000 --> 58:50.000] Some rumbles of thunder. [58:50.000 --> 58:52.000] Some more prolonged periods of rain. [58:52.000 --> 58:54.000] And down towards the south, it's been rather disappointingly [58:54.000 --> 58:55.000] cloudy. [58:55.000 --> 58:57.000] Well, certainly as we go through the rest of this evening and [58:57.000 --> 58:59.000] overnight, expect some further heavy showers. [58:59.000 --> 59:02.000] These mainly from parts of north Wales, north Midlands, north [59:02.000 --> 59:03.000] woods. [59:03.000 --> 59:05.000] It's that area of low pressure up towards the north west which is [59:05.000 --> 59:08.000] going to pass eastwards across parts of Scotland. [59:08.000 --> 59:10.000] And that's going to take the worst of the showers with it. [59:10.000 --> 59:11.000] But that's going to happen overnight. [59:11.000 --> 59:14.000] Elsewhere, we should lose some of the cloud from the south. [59:14.000 --> 59:16.000] And certainly Friday morning looks like being a fairly bright [59:16.000 --> 59:17.000] affair. [59:17.000 --> 59:20.000] Eventually, temperatures reaching around 21 degrees Celsius, [59:20.000 --> 59:21.000] about 70 degrees Fahrenheit. [59:21.000 --> 59:24.000] But the general feel on the day is going to be quite breezy. [59:24.000 --> 59:26.000] We're going to keep those winds quite brisk. [59:26.000 --> 59:28.000] One or two isolated showers around. [59:28.000 --> 59:31.000] But the majority following on in the wake of that low pressure [59:31.000 --> 59:33.000] area into northern and western areas. [59:33.000 --> 59:36.000] And eventually, those will most likely go down towards central [59:36.000 --> 59:39.000] parts and eventually out towards the southeast. [59:39.000 --> 59:42.000] So as far as Saturday's concerned, temperatures lifting that [59:42.000 --> 59:45.000] little bit down in the south, a little more sunshine and much, [59:45.000 --> 01:00:10.000] much fewer showers.
