eagerly anticipated games of the season tomorrow, manchester united travel to liverpool and we will hear from both managers and have all the build—up to the weekend's action. and in the weather, it's chalk and cheese. absolutely, we have so much to talk about this afternoon. not just today's weather, but going through the weekend and by monday we will have gone on to look for a hurricane heading its way towards the north and west of the british isles, the remnants of it. at the same time, 2a degrees. only in the british isles! sole survivor, the angler who nearly died after a fish jumps down his throat. it's the hollywood horror story that seems to worsen every day as more accusations are made against harvey weinstein and other industry figures are dragged into the scandal accused of turning a blind eye. police in america and here in britain are beginning investigations into his behaviour. mr weinstein has denied the most serious allegations. entertainment correspondent lizo mzimba reports. actress rose mcgowan has now said she too was raped by disgraced film producer harvey weinstein in a scandal now affecting one of the world's biggest companies, amazon. in a series of tweets, rose mcgowan said publicly... the amazon head of studio in question, roy price, is also facing an accusation from a female producer, that he lewdly propositioned her in 2015. in a statement, amazon said... weinstein‘s spokesperson says he unequivocally denies any allegations of non—consensual contact. over 20 women have spoken out against harvey weinstein including angelina jolie, gwyneth paltrow, cara delavingne, and heather graham. along with british actress kate beckinsale, just 17 when she claims weinstein first harrassed her. i'm hanging in, trying my best. harvey weinstein has not been seen in public since a brief appearance earlier in the week. the only time he addressed the press over the situation. glad to see you are doing ok. i'm not doing ok. i got to get help, guys. you know what, we all make mistakes, a second chance, i hope. oscar—winning filmmaker oliver stone says he will pull out of a future tv project, if the weinstein company remains involved but emphasised that he believes it is important that everyone involved in the allegations is treated fairly. if he broke the law, it will come out. there will be a trial. i believe that a man should not be condemned by a vigilante system. so it's not easy what he is going through either. an assistant who worked in one of weinstein‘s offices many years ago has been speaking about her experiences. vaguely, i remember being in the room. him trying to get me to come in to the other room. he said something about a massage, i remember being frightened but i was able to say no. i was pre—warned that this sort of thing could happen. i think i was looking at how close it was to get to the door. i remember the feeling of how scary that was and what a powerful man he was. the metropolitan police is investigating him in london over an alleged incident in the 1980s. in the us, investigations into his conduct had been relaunched by police. former us presidential candidates hillary clinton has weighed in on the scandal, speaking to andrew marr she talked about when she first heard of the allegations.” she talked about when she first heard of the allegations. i was shocked and appalled. i have heard about him through politics, as many democrats have come and he has been a funderfor all of democrats have come and he has been a funder for all of us, for obama, for me, for all of us who have run for me, for all of us who have run for office in the united states. it was just disgusting. the stories that have come out are heartbreaking. and i really commend the women who have been willing to step forward now and tell their stories. but i think it's important that we notjust stories. but i think it's important that we not just focus on stories. but i think it's important that we notjust focus on him and whatever consequences flow from these stories about his behaviour, but that we recognise this kind of behaviour cannot be tolerated anywhere, whether it's in entertainment, politics... after all, we have someone admitting to being a sexual assault in the oval office. there has to be a recognition that we will stand against this kind of action that is so sexist and misogynistic. and this depends on winning come forward, having the courage to come forward. yet in your book, the three women brought on stage by trump to attack your husband, you dismissed them. they had all been mitigated. that was the subject of a huge investigation, as you might recall, in the late 905. there were conclu5ion5 in the late 905. there were conclusions drawn, and that was clearly in the past. but it is something that has to be taken seriously. for everyone, notjust for those in entertainment right now. absolutely, nobody wants to blame women for what men do, but nonetheless powerful women like you also have a duty to call men out. as idid also have a duty to call men out. as i did throughout the campaign! i certainly did. the really sad part of the campaign was how this horrific tape... what he said about women in the past and what he said about women in the campaign was discounted by a lot of voters. do you think donald trump and harvey weinstein are deep down the same kind of person? i'm nota kind of person? i'm not a psychologist. i don't want to get into that, but there are credible report5 to get into that, but there are credible reports from women about both. given what donald trump has said, and the way he behaves, do you think he hates women question?” think he hates women question?” think he hates women question?” think he has a very narrow view of what women are. he wants to keep women in their place. for example, the way she heat—treated angela merkel when she came to the oval office, he wouldn't shake her hand, wouldn't look at her. compare to the way he treated theresa may, whose hand he grabbed. it was a grab, wasn't it? there are two kind of women, the once i like and to work with, and the ones who are unafraid of all would challenge me. that 5eem5 of all would challenge me. that seems quite 5exi5t, if not mi5ogyni5tic, to me. that was hillary clinton. joining me now is emma jone5, culture reporter and founder of electro media, a platform for women in film. you have talked about the toxic atmosphere around some men and the neighbours around some men and the neighbours around them. is the toxic nature in hollywood and the sense that it 5eem5 hollywood and the sense that it seems like a very liberal, right on industry, and yet it is being expo5ed now as industry, and yet it is being exposed now as an industry, and yet it is being expo5ed now as an industry that is exactly the same as corporate culture, for example, where 5exi5m has been rife for years and years. so much of the studio head5, has been rife for years and years. so much of the studio heads, the bo55e5, the directors and producers have been men. and it is mainly women who have been victims of this so—called casting couch 5y5tem. . women who have been victims of this so-called casting couch system. . we have just heard from hillary clinton, a powerful woman. there are more powerful women in the industry now, will that change the system? that is why women having agitating. patricia arquette when she got her oscar a couple of years ago, spoke out about equal pay. the ball has been rolling and things are getting better. there are studio bosses who are female. nevertheless the actress geena davis has done really interesting research on gender ratios within the film industry and has worked out that if things don't speed up fast, it will take 700 yea rs speed up fast, it will take 700 years to achieve parity within the film industry. the statistics are that bad. looking at the wider issue, it's not just that bad. looking at the wider issue, it's notjust women who fall prey to these bullies. but at the neighbours and the men he surrounded himself with who will do anything he said. you are absolutely right. i'm sure some men will be coming forward with allegations against some people in the future. certainly men have also been victims as young actors. however, you are right in terms of the culture of complicity around harvey weinstein. nobody is surprised this has come out. people are surprised to the extent of the allegations, but nobody was surprised. it was an open secret within the film industry. the hope is this was a one—off, but the expectation given experience is that it will not be. i'm very sure this is the tip of the iceberg, not the sillyjust for is the tip of the iceberg, not the silly just for harvey weinstein, is the tip of the iceberg, not the sillyjust for harvey weinstein, but we have seen an outpouring of women, the dam has burst in the last few days and women now know it's ok to speak out about these experiences. it's always been the right thing to do but women were just too afraid to do but women were just too afraid to do it? i can only assume it's because of fear for your career. harvey weinstein is the only celebrity producer in hollywood. he can green light films. some of the hit c has made, such as the king's speech. he was seen as the master of hollywood, a celebrity in his own right. if your desire is to rise up in the film industry and to have a chance, the idea of anger in this powerful man is probably enough to buy your silence in some ways. we have heard about brad pitt confronting harvey weinstein allegedly 20 years ago, with his allegedly 20 years ago, with his alleged behaviour towards gwyneth paltrow. we haven't even heard somebody like brad pitt speak out about it in the interim. and angelina jolie, the best paid actress in hollywood for a couple of yea rs. actress in hollywood for a couple of years. anna jones, thank you for coming to speak about this. he's the president of the european commission. jean—claude juncker‘s message of a brexit couldn't be clearer. if you order a drink in the bar, a venue must pay for it. he wa nts bar, a venue must pay for it. he wants britain to settle its bill before moving onto trade talks. our reporter adam fleming is following developments in this afternoon. presidentjuncker is the president of the european commission and part of the european commission and part of the european commission and part of the eu apparatus running the brexit talks on a day—to—day technical level. he's saying what a lot of people in brussels are saying, the uk has to specify its financial obligations that arise as a result of brexit. president juncker was speaking to a group of state students in his native luxembourg and spoke of the analogy of the pub. if you're sitting in a barand of the pub. if you're sitting in a bar and you of the pub. if you're sitting in a barand you are of the pub. if you're sitting in a bar and you are ordering 28 beers and suddenly some of your colleagues are leaving, that's not feasible. they have to pay. they have to pay. not in an impossible way. i'm not in a revenge mood. europeans have to be grateful for so many things britain has brought to europe. war after war before, everywhere and every time. but now they have to pay. he also discussed, described the debate around eu nationals living in britain after brexit and british people living in the rest of the eu after brexit as nonsense. he felt it should have been sorted much more quickly than this. that's the side of the argument about being tough on britain and sticking to the eu timetable. a document of draft conclusions that is to be put to eu leaders when they have a summit in brussels in next week, talks about that. it also strikes a more optimistic note as well saying michel barnier, the eu chief negotiator and his officials, should start internal preparations among the eu to talk about trade. in other words, to move from those tricky divorce issues about money and citizens rights on to the issue about trade, the future relationship and any transition deal. we will find out what eu leaders themselves, because it is they who will decide, really think a week today. the trump administration has unveiled a new strategy against iran aimed at confronting what it calls tehran's aggression and preventing it from acquiring nuclear weapons. the move to decertify will not withdraw the us from the accord, but it will give congress 60 days to decide whether to do so by reimposing economic sanctions. our diplomatic correspondent is outside the white house. does this water down what president trump has been threatening? he has been very bellicose against the iran nuclear agreement, and various times threatening to scrap or change it. i think you would like to scrap it, but we have been hearing for quite a long time now that that isn't likely at this point. because iran is complying with the deal. if iran we re complying with the deal. if iran were to withdraw from it, they would be in breach of it. it does not meet certain conditions, we expect them to say, in us law. that would plunge the whole thing to congress, who would have to do decide the fate of the us agreement. congress has given strong indications that it is not about to scrap the deal either. what it will probably do is pass legislation that will indicate it is ready to act quickly if iran crosses certain thresholds, for example. otherwise lawmakers have said they would like to use the whole process as leveraged to try to get allies and other parties to the deal to work on changes that would toughen pressure on iran. i think that's what we are going to see. i think we will also see a strong push against the islamic revolutionary guard corps, the specific revolutionary force military force in iran that president trump has said is responsible for fermenting terror and destruction in the line of tyranny. there might be increased sanctions on them. you're watching afternoon light. the headlines this afternoon. actress rose mcgowan has become the fourth woman to publicly accuse harvey weinstein of rape. the actress says the producer had grievously harassed. he denies any allegation of assault. the three judges said schools inspectors were right to regard that as unlawful discrimination. taxi

ahead of the game, he has defended his record and says no and the manager could have had a bigger impact. world numberone have had a bigger impact. world number one rafa nadal is through to the semifinals of the shanghai masters after his 15th consecutive win. the 16 time grand slam winner beat grigor dimitrov in three sets. and there is said to be a major revamp of test cricket. the sport's governing body has approved plans for a new nine nation test championship and a trial of four—day te st championship and a trial of four—day test matches rather than five. the court of appeal has ruled that an islamic faith school in birmingham should not teach boys separately from girls. the al—hij rah school segregates children from the age of ten — in lessons, during breaks, and on school trips. the three judges said ofsted inspectors were right to regard that as unlawful discrimination. our legal affairs correspondent, clive coleman, has more. this is really the first case of its type that case it is a policy that segregates boys and girls in a coeducational school and considers whether that policy amounts to unlawful discrimination. the school in birmingham is maintained by birmingham city council. it accepts children from the age of four to 16, but in year five, when they are aged ten or ii, but in year five, when they are aged ten or 11, there is total segregation, not just in ten or 11, there is total segregation, notjust in lessons, but also at break times, school trips. last summer ofsted inspected the school and found it inadequate and found that the policy of segregation to be unlawful discrimination. the school came to the high court, and the high court overruled the inspectors saying they had come to a wrong view about a matter of real public importance. ofsted appealed and today we got the ruling from the court of appeal, and it was a unanimous ruling that the policy of segregation amounted to direct unlawful discrimination, both against the girls and boys at the school. the court said the motive for the policy here was a religious motive, but frankly, whatever the motive, but frankly, whatever the motive was, it was irrelevant, because parliament had never intended that in a coeducational school there would be able policy of segregation between boys and girls. stead were very pleased with this ruling. but there are some very wide implications. it's not just ruling. but there are some very wide implications. it's notjust about one school. it estimated there are something like 20 schools in england that operate this policy of segregating boys and girls, coeducational schools. they are predominantly faith schools and they will now have to change their policy. thejudgment will now have to change their policy. the judgment makes will now have to change their policy. thejudgment makes it will now have to change their policy. the judgment makes it clear they will need time to do so. situation has grown up through no fault their own. the court has come to this ruling based on the equality act. they will all now have to change. but they will be given sometime to do so. legal correspondent clive coleman reporting from outside the court. corporate director of children and young people at birmingham city council has responded, saying they have looked at the sanction because the islamic school is being held to a different standard to schools with similar arrangements across the country. while we may not agree with their practices, as is made clear in their practices, as is made clear in thejudgment, there their practices, as is made clear in the judgment, there are their practices, as is made clear in thejudgment, there are many their practices, as is made clear in the judgment, there are many other faith schools around the country that practice gender separation and none of which have been downgraded by ofsted because of this. we can get more on the world of politics. the chancellor is in washington, philip hammond. business editor kamal ahmed has just no interview with him and has treated in the last few moments... the chancellor is describing accusations that he is talking down the economy of the brexit as bizarre and absurd. kamal ahmed did an interview with philip hammond which we will bring you later this afternoon. the ongoing row within the cabinet and suggestions of difference of opinions between the chancellor and other cabinet members. he has addressed that head on within the interview and we will bring you that later this afternoon. more than 3! people are now known to have died and many more missing in what is now the most lethal fire in california's history. thousands of firefighters battling more than 20 fires covering an area of almost 200,000 acres. our correspondent richard lister has the latest. day five of the most lethal wildfires in california's history. at least 30 dead, more than 400 missing, almost 200,000 acres destroyed. whole communities erased, like this. the images are apocalyptic. comfortable neighbourhoods reduced to rubble and silence. all that remains in this part of santa rosa are ash—filled swimming pools and the charred wreckage of cars parked in double garages all now consumed by the flames. the destruction continues for street after street. pepe tomayo almost didn't escape. a rescue helicopter took his family, but there was no room for him. he was holding jessie up, he didn't want to leave his dad, and i could hear him yelling, "no, get in, it'll be ok." it took two more trips to find pepe. it was ugly. it was close. it was really close. i called my daughter and i told her, "if i don't see you again, remember i love you." at least 20 fires are still raging. 8,000 firefighters are working around the clock to contain them. difficult, dangerous work. evacuation orders are in place, and there's a strong message for those who ignore them. your choice to stay, and there have been very few of them, is a distraction to ourfirst responders. you will not be given life safety support at this point. you are on your own. this is what awaits anyone hoping to ride it out — a hellish inferno consuming everything in its path, filling the air with choking black smoke. most did get out in time, but recovery teams are still searching the rubble for those who simply can't be found. many of those killed are said to be elderly people for whom escape was more difficult. identification is going to be hard. so far in the recoveries we have found bodies that were almost completely intact, and we have found bodies that were nothing more than ash and bones. after an unusually hot summer, california is a tinderbox, and more high winds are expected this weekend, leaving more neighbourhoods wondering whether they, too, will end up like this. richard lister, bbc news. the taxi at uber has filed an appeal in london. this could be a rather protracted battle. it will go on for several moments. one of the reasons it has been filed now is so it can continue to operate in london while the appeal is going on. it hopes at the appeal is going on. it hopes at the end it will win its appeal and the end it will win its appeal and the taxi app will continue to operate in london. it's extraordinarily important for london transport generally, and transport within london generally. three and a half million passengers using it. about 40,000 drivers are employed, or our workers within this system. there is a huge amount of london's infrastructure riding on uber continuing. it's an open market, and if they decide eventually, if tfl decides then they shouldn't operate any more, then there will be other operators to step in. it is the vetting of drivers that is at the heart of this. the four things they have objected to, tfl objected to. it said it objected to the way that it reported serious criminal offences, a massive problem. its approach to obtaining medical certificates, the one you just mentioned, the procedure for enhanced disclosure and barring services, basically vetting the drivers, and also the use of software. the software it was using actually helped uber to block regulators from looking at what they we re regulators from looking at what they were doing. some pretty serious complaints, and they have to come up with seriously good answers to ove rco m e with seriously good answers to overcome those objections. it's a huge test, talking about possibly the biggest disrupter in the world to an industry. it's been incredibly successful in this country and around the world. but on the other hand there is a public feeling, where there is a huge amount of public behind uber and use it everyday, there is also a lot of public feeling that it should be regulated properly. ithink public feeling that it should be regulated properly. i think this is the kickback against the gig economy where people are saying, fine, this provides us with a great service that we love, but we wanted to be regulated as well. you have the mayor of london, sadiq khan, ithink it's his point, what he is trying to say. we love the way the market operates, but we wanted to operate within a pretty tough regulatory regime as well. you will be back with more business later, thank you. a retired major who risked his life to save scores of people caught up ina to save scores of people caught up in a terror attack at a kenyan shopping centre has been awarded the uk's highest civilian honourfor bravery. dominic troulan, who served for two decades in the special forces, returned a dozen times to the westgate shopping mall during the siege in nairobi four years ago, to lead people to safety. speaking to our correspondent angus crawford, he described why he ran back towards the shopping centre. i was called by a friend to go in. his family was caught up in the melee, what was first anticipated to bea melee, what was first anticipated to be a robbery but then progressed over many hours to a terrorist action, which we saw. there were many good people in kenya who assisted that day. and medical staff, other people who came in with me, around me. and saved lives and conducted medical evacuations to hospitals in nairobi. the day will be etched on everybody‘s memory and as much as i have the george cross and am hugely honoured and humbled asiam to and am hugely honoured and humbled as i am to receive it from the queen, it is really about a custodian for the victims and their families of westgate and that terrible day. but also for the victims of terrorism around the world that we find ourselves in today. it's an appalling state for democracy and the right for life. and what was it like meeting the queen and receiving the award today? very special. and to be honoured that i am. and the memory of her father, the george cross. very good, and very good for my family. you can let us know about what you think of any of the stories covered today. hunting hurricanes, i cannot see one there with you... (!) today is pretty bad but if we pull away from this particular picture, and we will be back here before too long, to look at the weekend, taking you out a long way... that is part of the problem, that mass of cloud is hurricane ophelia, and if we run things forward a touch, then you will see, that as we get through to the weekend, and then into monday, it is not stay there, it isa into monday, it is not stay there, it is a long way away, my colleagues andi it is a long way away, my colleagues and i will be describing this as it gets close to us as ex—hurricane ophelia but look at those isobars, 70 mph gusts, 60 mph in land, we will talk about this on through monday, and indeed on into tuesday as well, let's make no bones about it, it is a long way off, still some uncertainty about who gets what and when but we could be looking at things like that through monday and into tuesday. you couldn't make it up. in terms of the other half of the country, better weather? yes, and this is where some of my fears coming, could be warm enough for you to be shedding a few layers, i will go no further than that... laughter some people could be looking at 24 degrees, i kid you not again, extraordinary, 8 degrees above what we would expect. that is somewhere in the south—eastern quarter. we have other concerns as well. this weather front, all over northern and western parts of the british isles, that is how it looks through your window, pretty distorted, here we are, the central belt of scotland. there is some brighter weather on the way, for some parts of scotland, as we get on towards tea—time, that will be creeping in, will bejust shy get on towards tea—time, that will be creeping in, will be just shy of the central belt at that stage, rainfall totals really mounting up. southern uplands, cumbrian fells, we have looked at it so far. and across the welsh hills. generally speaking, get up and get out and get on with it, whether is 18, i9, 20 degrees for some. pretty warm by day at the moment, also pretty warm by night, you may well have felt that last night, and here, rain keeps coming, thatis night, and here, rain keeps coming, that is why we are talking about 80 to 100 millimetres, across the high ground of england and wales. night—time minimum temperatures, thatis night—time minimum temperatures, that is what we expect to see, at this time, during the course of the day, here we offer the all—important weekend, the weather front moving away, dragging some of the rain further north. underneath it, the sun will break through, with the south and south—westerly breeze, this is where we turn on the heat, 20, 20 this is where we turn on the heat, 20,201 this is where we turn on the heat, 20, 201 degrees, and you know what, even ahead on sunday, similar sort of prospect, weather front still producing an awful lot of rain. —— 20, 21 degrees. flow of air beneath it is south, south west, that is why, when the sun comes out and it will, come the afternoon, somebody somewhere will be pushing well past 20 degrees. this is bbc news, our latest headlines. more public figures have spoken out against producer harvey weinstein in a sexual abuse
