As long as i can get a lift, taking me back and forth. So you will be there next year, 101 . Well, i say, i dont know. Im getting a bit shaky on my legs. As an ex serviceman, remembrance sunday and the poppy is personalfor ron. In World War Two he endured horrors that scarred him for years, after his squad was captured and they spent two years as prisoners of war near auschwitz. By far the worst experience they endured was the death march. They marched us through the carpathian mountains, czechoslovakia, bohemia, saxony, bavaria, and down into austria. I was on a march for about 17 weeks. We lost. Around about 100 men died. And when you finally came home, just describe the state and the toll that auschwitz. Oh, i was in a shocking state when i came home. For instance, my wife put me in the bath that first night, and she started to cry cos i looked like somebody from belsen. Isaid, 0h, dont cry, love. I left men out there whos never going to come home. Ron suffered with post traumatic stress, flashbacks, and nightmares that haunted him for years, but he overcame it all thanks in no small part to the woman he will never forget. I think my wife saved my life. I think my wife was marvellous. Super woman. Today, britain remembers all of those that have fought for our country over the years. Ronjones will be doing the same for the friends he lost more than 70 years ago. Here is the weather. Sunday was a fine and glorious day across much of the country, but there were plenty of showers and a strong northerly wind across eastern coastal areas. Elsewhere, most of the showers should die away from western coast areas, but it will be a cold night to come. The far north west of the uk will be seeing a change as the weather system moves in with increasing cloud, turning milder. We start on a cold and bright note for much of england and wales. The showers will fizzle out and we will see rain and wind pushing into the north west of the country. Some snow over the Higher Ground of scotland before it turns to rain later in the day. But milder air sweeps across most of the country, but that means more cloud around omagh outbreaks of laying outbreaks of rain and temperatures are most in double figures. Hello. This is bbc news.

The headlines this evening so close, but yet so far. Northern irelands world cup dreams are over. England keep the ashes series alive by holding on for a draw against australia in the test match. And Sebastian Vettel wins the brazilian grand prix as Lewis Hamilton recovers from last to finish fourth. Heartbreak for Northern Ireland in switzerland. They are out of the world cup, trailing 1 0 after the first leg due to a cruel penalty decision. They gave everything tonight, but couldnt find a way past the swiss defence. It finished goalless. Both sides had their chances. Northern ireland could have taken the lead in the opening minutes. Chris brunts shot was well saved. The swiss came close on a numner of occasions zuber pulling a great save from mcgovern. In injury time, jonny evans had a header cleared off the line, rodriguez in just the right place the west brom defender. Northern ireland had come so close, and they will be proud of this performance, but its switzerland who will be going to russia next summer. Watching the replay maybe just rubs in just what could have been. We can go live now to basel and talk to our reporterjessica creighton. And jessica, in years to come, its going to be that penalty decision in the first leg thats remembered from this tie. Yes, of course. What a way to go down for Northern Ireland, down to that controversial penalty decision. But it was a brave effort by the Northern Ireland players in the second leg. Ultimately, theyjust fell short. They had a number of chances, not least that jonny fell short. They had a number of chances, not least thatjonny evans header, cleared off the line in the dying moments. Much more attacking spirit from the Northern Ireland tea m spirit from the Northern Ireland team in this league compared to the first one, but heartbreak for eve ryo ne first one, but heartbreak for everyone involved. They can be proud of the performers they put into night, and proud of the remarkable journey they have been on in the last five years. They have gone from a team languishing outside the worlds top 100 to 18just a team languishing outside the worlds top 100 to 18 just outside the worlds top 20. Now you wonder how many of those faces in the team will stay there for the next olivine campaign which gets under way for the euro 2020. The veterans aaron hughes, steven davis, gareth mcauley, ageing players, will be still be a part of that side considering that they are getting older . Perhaps this was the last roll of the dice for them. Manager Michael Oneill has been receiving many plaudits for the way he has transformed this Northern Ireland team. He has been linked with the va ca nt scotla nd team. He has been linked with the vacant scotland managers job, team. He has been linked with the vacant scotland managersjob, so you wonder what effect this result will have on the teams future. Thank you, jessica. It will not mean much to you, but if i say mind the gap, the viewers will know what im talking about england and australia have drawn the womens ashes test, a result which keeps the series alive. Georgia elwiss and Heather Knight steered their team home, with captain knight making a crucial half century. The series will now be decided by the three twenty20 matches still to come. From sydney, our correspondent andy swiss reports. Englands batters emerged with their ashes hopes hanging in the balance. Their challenge, to survive the day and salvage a draw. Tammy beaumonts stylish start seemed to bode well, wellington and england suddenly had problems. Lauren winfield not so much leg before as toe wicket, gone for 34. And australia sensed that the ashes could be in sight. But come the second session, england knuckled down, Heather Knight with a captains innings. Boundaries were a rarity, but it didnt matter. With the help of Georgia Elwiss and a lifeless pitch, knight edged her team closer. Australia decided enough was enough and the captains shook hands. Not the win england would have wanted, but a battling draw to keep their hopes alive. This was a gritty performance from england, but to regain the ashes, they will now have to win all three remaining matches. Not impossible, but it will be some challenge. The first mens ashes test starts a week on thursday in brisbane. Englands confidence will have been boosted by a convincing win in their latest tour match against a cricket australia xi and the news that fast bowler jake ball is likely to be fit, despite suffering ankle ligament damage in the match. Coach Trevor Bayliss says hes been pleased with the newer batsmen in the side. The more inexperienced batters have spent time in the middle before the start of the series. Theyre the ones under pressure the most. Theyve not had a lot of experience of australian conditions, but theyve spent some time in the middle. But scoring 60s is not enough. We need 1605. Sebastian vettel has won the brazilian grand prix, but the drive of the day came from newly crowned World Champion Lewis Hamilton. He started at the back of the grid, but came through the field to finish fourth. Nick parrot reports. Sebastian vettels championship hopes ended last time out in mexico, but there was still pride to race for in brazil. With newly crowned World Champion Lewis Hamilton starting from the pit lane after crashing in qualifying, there was only one mercedes between the german and glory. Valtteri bottas was on pole, but it went wrong for the firm from the start as vettel surged past him and into the lead. Hamiltons job was made easier by a Demolition Derby that unfolded in front of him. Three cars out on the first lap brought the safety car out, allowing him to catch the rest of the field. After the restart, hamilton carved his way up the order and ended up in the lead by virtue of his more durable tyres. When he eventually stopped, he dropped to fifth, but managed to catch Max Verstappen to claim fourth place. That saw him named driver of the day, but the day really belonged to vettel, with a first win for ferrari in brazil since 2008. Theres plenty of room for improvement, but england are safely through to the quarter finals of the Rugby League World cup. Ireland bowed out of the tournament in style with a comfortable win against wales. John watson was watching the action. Shoulder to shoulder. There rest englands world cup hopes, rugby leagues elite broad enough to carry the burden. Fast hands, fast start. Two minutes in, Gareth Widdop touching down. Commentator this is going to be englands opening try. Three tries in quick succession. This game was all but over, james graham going through the gears and the french defence. And grahams going to get over the line and score englands third. Its a rout already. A first half packed with pace and precision. England lost their way in the second. Jermaine mcgillvary didnt, finding the line as he often does. Small in stature, but a giant on the wing for huddersfield. Nine tries, nine matches. Three now stand between england and world cup glory. Papua new guinea next. Theyre a great team. Theyve played well the last few weeks and its going to be a tough challenge. But for us, its about what we do, making sure we do the job done individually. If we can do that, well get thejob done. Ireland and wales had both already ahead of their meeting, the irish finishing with a flourish, liam kay with one of six tries. It is ireland 32. Time to take the weight off. For the quarterfinalists, the wait continues. The tennis atp finals are under way in london, and six time champion Roger Federer opened with a straight sets win overjack sock, the ideal way for federer to get used to the playing conditions again at the 02. Theres always a struggle because of the conditions. Youre not quite used to how the ball is flying. The last return was just not quite connecting. After a while, i was happy to hit some good shots and focus on your own serve. After a while, i had the hope that i could play more freely. The second set was tight. I missed some opportunities. The break at the end could have gone either way. But he helped me with some mistakes. Im really happy that i got through somehow. Great britain claimed their third gold medal of the track cycling world cup with victory in the Womens Team Pursuit in manchester.
