As a default setting. Social media companies have been under growing pressure to protect children from harmful online content. Heres our Technology Editor zoe kleinman. Instagram already claims to have more than 50 tools aimed at keeping teens safe on its platform. But so far, the problem of children being exposed to harmful content has not been resolved. Well, i dont know if its social media, but i think as parents we should have the right to see it. An Ofcom Study earlier this year found that every single child it spoke to had seen violent material online. Instagram was one of the platforms they mentioned the most. The new measures aim put more control into the hands of parents. Accou nts accounts belonging to anyone under the age of 18 are made private by default. Now, if someone under 16 wants to make an account public, they have to add a parent to approve it, and that perak will be able to see who they message which topics they follow. Notifications will be muted overnight, and young people will get an alert if they spend an hour on the app. The biggest changes that Under 16s will need parental permission to alter any of the settings. Some parents have campaigned for years for better protection for their children. Ian russells Daughter Molly took her own life in 2017 after viewing Self Harm Content on instagram. Meta are very good at making these big announcements. What they also have to be good at is making these things transparent and measuring how well their measures are working. Sometime before christmas when these measures are in place and children are using them, we should know from meta how theyre working, whether there are still problems in what they are doing to plug the gaps. These new tools might give parents extra oversight, but they still Cant Control Instagram algorithms or what content appears in the app in the first place. And thats all assuming parents want this extra responsibility. Speaking just last week, Meta Exec Sir Nick Clegg said, in reality, the Tech Giant has found that parents are reluctant to sign up and use these features. Zoe kleinman, Bbc News. Lets go now to our correspondent, angus crawford, who has been following the story. Angus, how do you see this . Is this a big step forward for online safety . 1 a big step forward for online safe . ~ ,. ,. ,. Safety . I think this announcement could be hugely safety . I think this announcement could be hugely significant, safety . I think this announcement could be hugely significant, but i safety . I think this announcement could be hugely significant, but it| could be hugely significant, but it raises for me three immediate and important issues. Number one, existing users on the platform who are under 18 who may well have lied about their age to get there. We know from some research, as many as 65 of nine to 12 year olds already have an account on instagram, so what is the platform going to do to verify those users who may have said they were an adult to get on. Second, what about new users and Age Verification . What is instagram going to do today that it wasnt doing yesterday to make sure that those children are the age they say they are . There is another issue there. How do you tackle the problem of teenagers pestering their parents to set up an account for them . Finally, The Big Question is, is this really is because it sounds . Other Tectonic Plates starting to move . In recent years we have had the online Safety Act here, The European Digital Services Act in the eu, and we have had Court Cases in the us about the safety of the platforms. So i suppose the question is, our Regulation And Litigation finally starting to bite . Finally starting to bite . Angus, Thank Ou finally starting to bite . Angus, thank you very finally starting to bite . Angus, thank you very much finally starting to bite . Angus, thank you very much indeed.

And we can talk to andrew live now. As you said in your report, this is a case that has caused Shock Waves across france and indeed around the world, in fact, where people have been paying close attention to the case. But extraordinary developments in the Courtroom Today as well. Indeed, a morning of extraordinary testimony from Dominique Pelicot, who said he was not born evil. He apologised for what he had done, but he also cited being raped when he was nine that contributed to what later became an addiction. He insisted he had not abused his daughter or any other of his children or grandchildren. His wife, gisele, was in court to hear this, she reacted by saying in court that it was difficult to listen to the man that she had trusted completely for 50 years. Significantly as well of course, there were 50 Co Accused also sitting in that courtroom this morning. Only 15 of them have actually admitted to rape. The rest have suggested that there were some implied consent, or that the Husbands Consent was enough. And today we heard Dominique Pelicot very clearly rejecting that as an argument, saying all those men being filmed knew what they were doing. They were all rapists like he was, he said. �. ,. ,. , he said. Andrew harding, Our Paris corresuondent. He said. Andrew harding, our Paris Correspondent, thank he said.

Some of the details of the case against it were discussed in court. People police were called to the house in bushey, and they find Louise Hunt tied to a share. She had been shot with a crossbow. Their mother Carol Hunt was also found with multiple stab wounds, and they died in the house. Kyle clifford we know was arrested the next day at a cemetery, and police found him with serious injuries. He told the court this morning that he couldnt speak very loudly because he still had a voice injury. Police can only questioned him when he was well enough, and last night they charged him with the murders of the three women, possession of a ten inch butchers knife, and a crossbow, and the false imprisonment of Louise Hunt. Magistrate courts can deal with the charges relating to the knife in the crossbow, but not a case of murder or false case of murder orfalse imprisonment, so he was remanded in custody and will appear in front of a High Courtjudge here at the royal Courts Ofjustice this afternoon.

Noor, what else did Tim Davie say . Tim davie was speaking at an Industry Event here in central london, and as you say, it is a day after Huw Edwards was sentenced on those abuse images. Tim davie was first of all asked whether he thought that Huw Edwards would ever work at the bbc again, and he said, for obvious reasons he cant see that happening. He said given the appalling crimes he hasjust been convicted of. He was also asked about scrubbing Huw Edwards from the archives, and he said on that matter we never completely ban people from the archives, but it cant see a scenario in which edwards is used in day to day programming. More broadly, he was also saying that within the bbc there is a sense of Shock And Anger and upset about what has happened, but he says it is not really about the corporation. What it is about the victims and their families. Finally he was asked about the money. Remember the bbc asked Huw Edwards to return that £200,000 that he earned since his arrest last november, and on that front, he says, we want the money back, we have asked for the money back, but thatis have asked for the money back, but that is all He Is able to say at this point.

A 16 year old boy says hes been left shaken after the treatment he received at great ormond Street Hospital is now part of an urgent review. George is one of more than 700 children who were patients of yaserjabbar, a consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon who stepped down from his role last year, but whose work is now being examined by the Royal College Of Surgeons, following concerns raised by Staff And Patient families. Great ormond street says its contacted all those affected. Alison freeman reports. It was meant to be an operation that helped to improve georges life, but the complicated procedure he thought would lengthen his left arm and required nine months in a Metal Frame in fact did the opposite. My left hand, its shorter and definitely more curved than it was before as well. The fingers arent as flexible, and im in pain when i put them under any sort of stress. Great ormond Street Hospital is now reviewing the care of more than 700 children who received treatment from an Orthopaedic Surgeon. That surgeon is yaserjabbar. He worked at the London Hospital for five years between 2017 and 2022. Two years ago, after concerns were raised by staff and families of patients, great ormond street asked the Royal College Of Surgeons to conduct a wider review into its orthopaedic practices. Subsequently, the hospital wrote to all 721 of mrjabbar� s patients and their families. It now said 22 children in 39 cases it had looked at so far had come to some degree of harm, with 13 classified as serious. For georges family, who only found out earlier this year, its come a huge shock. George had been under their care since he was two, and we had had the best care. And you do go in with blind trust, because it is great ormond street. We are devastated, and we are mortified that our trust has been broken by the place that we trusted our son to. In a statement, great ormond street apologised, and said a group of independent experts are now reviewing all the patients of one surgeon, and that it was committed to being open and transparent. Mrjabbar is now thought to be practising in dubai, and has not responded to the bbc for comment. I was quite shocked to see the number of individuals who were affected by this potentially, and as the investigation is still ongoing, so, yes, we would encourage any families who have any concerns to seek legal advice. George and his family are now considering whats best for his future. Its very difficult for george, because this surgery performed isnt just a one off surgery, its nine months of having a frame on yourarm, which affects your education, it affects future earnings, it affects your social life. The decision is now Up To george whether he chooses to go to future surgery. I just want to live a happy life above all else. Alison freeman, Bbc News. The time is 1. 15.

Donald trump has spoken publicly for the first time since he was targeted in an apparent Assassination Attempt at his Golf Course in florida. Investigators say the suspect hid in bushes for nearly 12 hours before he was spotted by secret Service Agents. Mr trump praised his Protection Team and, in a rare show of political unity, commended President Biden for calling him after the incident, as our North America Correspondent, peter bowes, reports. Keep walking this is the moment Ryan Routh was taken into custody. The 58 year old was arrested shortly after fleeing from Donald Trumps Golf Club in West Palm Beach, florida. Whats your name . Ryan. Ryan . Less than 2a hours later, he was in court, dressed in a blue Prison Jumpsuit and facing multiple firearms charges linked to an alleged attempt to assassinate the former president. This is where he was confronted by a secret Service Agent while Donald Trump was playing a round of golf. All of a sudden we heard shots being fired in the air. And i guess probably four orfive. And it sounded like bullets, but what do i know about that . The Secret Service knew immediately it was bullets. And they grabbed me, everybodyjust, we got into the carts and we moved along pretty good. I was with an agent and the agent did a fantasticjob. The agent fired at what investigators say appeared to be a Rifle Poking out of trees near the edge of the course. Cellular data shows that the subject was in the vicinity of the Golf Course roughly 12 hours before the engagement with the united states Secret Service. Investigators say theyre still working on whether Ryan Routh was acting alone. Kamala harris said violence had no place in america, and she was relieved her Election Opponent was safe, but Mr Trump blamed what he called her and the current president s rhetoric for what happened on sunday and two months ago. Take a look at what happened. Gunshots. The former president first survived an Assassination Attempt while speaking at an open Air Rally in pennsylvania. Since then, security around him has been tightened. But the Secret Service says it needs more resources to do itsjob. President biden says hes looking to see if further measures are needed to ensure the safety of Mr Trump. Ive always condemned political violence, and i always will in america. In america, we resolve our differences peacefully at the ballot box, not at the end of a gun. The White House says Mr Biden has spoken to the former president to convey his relief that hes safe.

There are seven anxious weeks to go until polling day. Peter bowes, Bbc News, Los Angeles. We can speak now to our North America Correspondent tom bateman, who is in West Palm Beach in Florida Close to Mr Trumps Mar A Lago resort. What is the latest on the investigation into the second apparent Assassination Attempt . We have been learning quite a lot more about Ryan Routh, the suspect in this case. You mentioned investigators established he was hiding in the woods for almost 12 hours before the apparent attempt where his barrel of the gun was seen Spotted Poking out of the bushes there. I was in court for the first appearance in front of a magistrate when Ryan Routh was brought in handcuffed. We learned about his life in hawaii. He was asked about his financial situation. He spoke in his financial situation. He spoke in his words of having zero funds, talked about having two trucks in Hawaii Worth just 1000 each. Talked about having two trucks in Hawaii Worthjust 1000 each. More details about that and his potential political affiliation. He said he voted for Donald Trump in 2016 but then turned against him. He donated to some democratic causes more recently. What we are seeing now particularly from Donald Trump and his running matejd vance, we have the session behind me here. Where Donald Trump again blamed Kamala Harris and Joe Biden for what he said was rhetoric causing people to try to take shots at him. That is because they have repeatedly described Donald Trump as a threat to democracy. They said they will stand by that because of his failed attempt to try to overturn the 2020 election. But we are seeing Mr Trump trying to link this and put the second attempt on his life at Front And Centre of his election campaigning. Studio thank you very much.

The Liberal Democrat leader, Sir Ed Davey, is expected to tell his Party Conference Today that the conservatives left the nhs in a broken state. But hell also criticise the new Labour Government for too much doom and gloom. Chief political Correspondent Henry Zeffman is at the Party Conference in brighton. Henry, the Health Service and social care at the top ed davey� s agenda . Absolutely. This is a massively upbeat Liberal Democrat conference. The question at their conferences each year is can the party ever recover from each year is can the party ever recoverfrom its each year is can the party ever recover from its role each year is can the party ever recoverfrom its role in the Coalition Government . This year the question is what on earth are their 72 Mp5 Question is what on earth are their 72 mps going to do . They are going to focus on health and social care as they have throughout the conference and as Sir Ed Davey will in his speech today. He will say the country has to be given hope the nhs can improve and the Word Hope is important, it is a deliberate jab at the Labour Government who the Liberal Democrats believe have been too gloomy so far in the months since the general election. But this partys main opponent is not the labour party, it is the conservatives. That is where they won most of their new seats at the election from and where a lot of their targets in the next election will be because those are where they came second in the general election. The Liberal Democrats say they want to demonstrate over the coming years they can be a better opposition than they can be a better opposition than the conservative party, with the goal, before long, of supporting them altogether. Universities in england say Tuition Fees need to be increased in line with inflation to help prevent them from sliding into decline. Fees have been frozen for seven years but students say theyre already paying too much. Heres our education reporter, vanessa clarke. After a quiet summer, University Campuses are once again filling up. In manchester, more than 100,000 students are expected to descend on the city this month, and here at the manchester metropolitan, there will be more home students starting than ever before. Were enormously excited to be welcoming 10,000 new undergraduates. But in england, Vice Chancellors are calling for help as Tuition Fees remain frozen and international student numbers are down. For many institutions, were now at an inflection point. We can choose as a country what type of higher Education System we want. Currently, we have some of the best universities in the world. We deliver really great internationally rated teaching and research. If we want to carry on doing that, weve got to find ways of investing. Its not an easy time for universities. More than 40 are expecting to return a Budget Deficit this year, and theyre calling for a decision about how they will be funded long term. See you tonight, then. Maybe another bowl of rice. In proposals due to be released in the coming days, Universities Uk will call for a Tuition Fee Rise in england linked to inflation, as well as more investment from the government. They also want to see Maintenance Grants go up and access to child and adolescent mental Health Services for students up until 25. But the idea of Tuition Fees going up did not go down well here. Such a big chunk of money that i can sort of log in and see that i owe the government, at the moment, and the idea of spending more than that. If they went up, i would definitely be annoyed, because im not i am getting a lot of teaching, but im not getting like 10ks worth. I wouldnt want it to go up like past 10k. And itjust puts people off going to uni, basically, and No One will go. The Department For Education in england says it has inherited a challenging set of circumstances, and it will create a secure future for universities. But there are no easy options. We know that there really isnt very much public money available, and if there was, im not sure it would necessarily go to higher education. The next option is students, but its politically very difficult to put up Tuition Fees. Although if Tuition Fees were linked to inflation, arguably the Cost Isnt going up, the costs are staying the same. But making that argument is quite tricky. For many students, this week marks the start of their university experience. But outside of campus, the debate about whether the cost should be on the taxpayer or the student rolls on.

The union that represents Delivery Riders says the way they are paid by companies like deliveroo and just eat encourages some of them to ride on the pavement and to travel at dangerous speeds on illegally modified Electric Bikes. Our reporter Tim Muffett has been speaking to Delivery Riders in london, where police are cracking down on the problem. Its ridiculous. They dont care. As long as theyre getting their delivery done, they dont care. Sometimes, theyve got things in their ears. Theyve got earplugs in their ears so they dont always hear you when you say, excuse me, be careful, because theres pedestrians and elderly people. When youre paid perjob, it pays to be quick. But breaking the rules can be dangerous. I was walking along the Pavement And Somebody came on the pavement with a bike. They cause quite. A lot of disturbance. You know, its like thE Bikes have taken over. I received an order. Dior is a delivery rider. So, yeah, £3. 21, so then i have to accept it. He does not condone riding on the pavement or riding too fast. But he does think Delivery Riders are underpaid. That was five minutes. Under appreciated. From the hourly rate that we get paid. And often under pressure. If were not quick, we can lose ourjobs. We need to do four deliveries an hour to get the minimum wage. And how possible is that . Its not its not that easy. Sometimes, you get paid less than £1 a mile. Dior used to use an electric bike for his deliveries, but now uses a moped. He can travel further and, hopefully, earn more money. Sometimes, when i get to the customer, the customer doesnt pick up the phone and then i have to wait ten minutes. The customers think we earn enough, but we dont earn enough. We get shouted at. Ive heard of people that got spat on. We want to continue to do ourjobs, but we also want to be treated with respect. At the moment, were making like £6, £7 an hour, max. Lewis delivers using his electric bike. Sometimes, i spend more money out than im making, at the moment. Theres never an excuse, is there, for riding on a Pavement Orfor going too fast . For my safety and for the safety of the people, do not ride on the pavements, no. Do you think theyre giving everyone a bad name . For sure, yeah, they shouldnt go on the pavement. To be ridden legally on a public road, the motor on an electric bike must cut out when the speed reaches 15. 5mph. You can travel faster, but the rider then needs to provide all the power. It is, though, pretty easy to buy Conversion Kits that will transform an electric bike. Its going Up To 72. 5mph. This is what were dealing with. Its very, very dangerous. The city of London Police is cracking down on E Bikes that break the law. So if i lift the Back Wheel up, turn the throttle, this will go Up To probably 25, 30 miles an hour. That gives us the power, then, to seize it, take it off the road. We started in july last year. Since we started it, i can tell you now, this is the 326th illegal E Bike Scooter that weve seized. And we changed the category. I think people are doing this because its easy. The kit, the batteries, the rear wheel on the hub, and this throttle that has been fitted is a kit he would have bought online. Its turned it into like a moped. Modifying an E Bike to go very fast isnt itself illegal, as long as its ridden on private land, not on a road. Were finding a lot of the Food Delivery guys, theyre starting to get the message. We spoke to three of the main Food Delivery firms just eat, Deliveroo And Uber eats. They said that they dont condone Law Breaking or incentivise it, that they provide training for safe riding and investigate complaints of unsafe riding. Dior� s back from his delivery. Basically, i earned £3. 21 and it took me, like, ithink, 30 minutes. Hes a member of the iwgb union, which represents Delivery Riders and is calling for better pay and conditions. We were the key workers in the pandemic. So we risked our lives so people would receive their groceries and everything, and now we get treated like dogs. Dior is convinced that better pay would reduce the need for speed, and remove the temptation felt by some riders to be risky and reckless. Tim muffett, Bbc News. Still to come on todays programme.

Raducanu won in straight sets but it took two Tie Breaks and the best part of three hours to get past the american. Its her first win since latejuly when she also defeated stearns on her way to the last eight in washington. This win will take the british number three back into the top 60. A strong end to the season could see her targeting a place in the top 30. Its Fight Week for anthonyjoshua and a chance to become a three time world heavyweight champion as he takes on fellow brit, daniel dubois, for the Ibf Title at Wembley Stadium on saturday. Nearly two years on from losing to oleksandr usyk, joshua says hes a better fighter now. I think ithink im i think im gifted with an ability to fight and compete. In boxing you are able to read certain tendencies, able to read your opponent. So i can always have an eye for that but tHe Is a supreme level you can take it to and it has happened over maybe the last ten months, eight months. I have really honed in on those skills. And news just coming in that the Scottish Government has backed glasgow to hosts the Commonwealth Games in 2026. The city hosted it ten years ago and will step in after victoria, in australia, pulled out last year because of rising costs. Its understood the games will come at no cost to the public purse. More on that coming up. And more on our website, where you can also refresh yourself on the new Champions League format, head to the Bbc Sport Website where its all explained for you. Youll also get all the news building Up To this evenings matches, and from the News Conferences looking ahead to tomorrows games. But from All Of Us here at the bbc sports centre, for now, goodbye. The Scottish Government has agreed to back a deal to bring the Commonwealth Games to glasgow in 2026. Its after the australian state of victoria pulled out of hosting it last year because of rising costs. The games will be scaled back and will be made up of ten sports across four venues. Our Scotland Correspondent Catriona renton is in glasgow. Catriona, what will this mean for the city . Glasgow hosted an extremely successful Commonwealth Games in 2014. You will see the scottish Events Campus behind me where the boxing and gymnastics took place. We learned in the last Half Hour glasgow will host the 2026 games. It was proposed glasgow could rescue the games because it had the existing infrastructure from 2014 after the australians pulled out of hosting in the state of victoria, when they pulled out last year. The Scottish Government had strong reservations about this, about taking on the games again. For financial risks and also a reputational risk, but they now have assurances and have written to the commonwealth Games Federation to back the scales Down Glasgow 2026. A final decision was taken this morning. They have assurances it will not cost the public Purse Anything and it will look very different from the Games Glasgow hosted in 2014. The event will see ten sports instead of 17 We Saw in glasgow 2014. We do not know what they will be but we know there will be athletics and swimming. There will be four venues this time, there were 14 in 2014. No Athletes Village and of course a spectacular Opening Ceremony last time in glasgow. I expect that would be scaled back if it were to happen at all. The total budget is expected to be around £114 million this time and the bulk of it coming from the commonwealth Games Federation. Glasgow 2014 cost 543 million. It gives an idea of how scaled back this will be. When we talk about legacy, may be the legacy of glasgow 2026 can be a new model that might make the games more attractive for other countries to host in the future. ~ other countries to host in the future. , ~ ,. , a Loggerhead Turtle which was found washed up on a beach in cumbria has been successfully nursed back to health and flown to the azores to be released back into the wild. It was rescued in Barrow In Furness in february, its shell covered in thick Algae And Seaweed and suffering from pneumonia. Jayne mccubbin has been following itsjourney. Her name is nazare and sHe Is incredibly lucky to be alive. Back in february, the Loggerhead Turtle was discovered by a Dog Walker after being washed up on the cumbrian coast. She was cold and weak and far from the warm waters which should have been home. A team from Blackpool Sea Life Centre were called to action. So she was motionless. She was just about making some movements with her eyes, and she was completely covered all over her shell in algaes and seaweeds, like shed been floating around in the sea for some time. Herjourney had taken herfar off track into the cold, stormy waters of the irish sea. Her rescuers knew this because of a Satellite Tracking Device found on her back. That revealed Nazares Habit of getting lost and being found. Which was amazing because we found out that she was released from the coast of france, from la rochelle aquarium, where shed been rehabilitated injune in 2023. So it wasnt the first time shed been in a facility like ours. And the tag Stopped Beeping around december time, just off the coast of ireland. And that means she probably got stuck in the storms then and disappeared. So shed had a bit of a rough couple of months, we reckon, from the condition of her. Those months had taken their toll. Staff removed algae with a toothbrush. By rights, she should have died, but her Dehydration And Pneumonia were treated over three weeks of 24 hour care. She was eventually well enough to be driven to scarborough seaLife Centre. Regulating her temperature was so important, she made the journey first class. She actually moved in the front of the van with me for the journey over from blackpool and then, from there, we were able to then move her and transition her into our ocean tank. It means building up those muscles to start diving again properly. When she was finally ready to fend for herself, nazares final journey took her here the warm Blue Waters of the azores. And almost 2,500 miles from the irish sea, she was released. And it was simply incredible. She kind of went into the water, kind of had a little bit of a look around and, before you know it, she rocketed off into the, you know, the vast blue that you could see kind of before you. We didnt really get a chance to say goodbye, it was that quick. And it was just brilliant in the sense that it was the culmination of lots of different teams coming together to allow this turtle to go back to the wild, and thats what its all about for us. Its about giving something back and giving an animal a second chance. The Team Hope this is the last time she ever experiences the skills and tlc of european aquariums. Jayne mccubbin, Bbc News. A woman from buckinghamshire has found herfour siblings in australia after searching for them for more than thirty years. Tina duggan had nearly given up hope of finding her half brothers and sisters, but was inspired to keep searching, after watching the Presenters Ant and dec trace their own genealogies for a tv programme. Our reporter Katharine De Costa takes up the story. A nervous wait for older Sister Janette at melbourne airport. Tina, the youngest of six siblings, is about to meet her family for the first time. Ive only been waiting 47 years thats ok, all right. 0k . Yeah. Yeah . Oh, ive got a sister. The three sisters and two brothers share the same father but didnt know about Each Other growing up. Abc news captured their emotional reunion. Youve made my day, like. Day . My birthday, my birthday. You could not have given me anything else in the world than what i have here. Ive been searching since i was 14 to find you and from a piece of Paper Thatjust had, not evenjanette, it had julie on it. Ive dreamt about you, ive dreamt about this moment for such a long time, that to have it come true is unreal. Its fantastic, shes real, i touched her and we all had a big sibling hug, which is like mental. Tina lived with her mum in the uk. She was told she had three siblings in australia but without the internet back then, her search was fruitless. None of us knew. My dad didnt know. Years later, it was ant and dec� s Dna Journey that inspired tina to continue her search. She took a Dna Test and waited. But it wasnt until 2020, during the pandemic, that she was contacted by a fourth sibling, lateesha. And it turned out that Lateeshas Mum was alive and im the only one with one photograph of our father so i shared it and her mum confirmed it was the same man. Plus, our dna is, you know, half exactly the same. So, um, were sisters. So at that point i told her that there were more of us. There were three more and they all lived in australia. Six weeks later, lateesha had tracked down their three other siblings via social media, but its taken a further four years to get sean, tina, lateesha, Janette And Malcolm together Face To face. I have felt very alone in the uk because i am on my own there and now ive got all of these people, that loneliness has gone. Im not lonely, ijust felt alone, that i didnt have my people and now i have my people. You do, you have everybody. Youve got so many more thanjust us. Tina is spending the next few days meeting 47 members of her family in melbourne, brisbane and perth. But its not the end of the journey. Tina still hopes to find an Aunt And Uncle in the bristol area, who may hold the key to finding a sixth sibling in america. Katharine de costa, Bbc News. A lovely story to end the programme. And the weather is rather lovely, too. Good news on the Weather Front if you like Blue Sky and sunshine. A gorgeous day here on the East Coast in North Yorkshire although Feeling Cold for some here with scarborough at 15. Plenty of places west and north are warmer. Parts of Northern Scotland Up To 23. In western scotland, in some parts, there has been more cloud. And more cloud in the Northern Isles. You can see it on the satellite, producing drizzle. Some areas of cloud in the south East Corner but a big area of High Pressure is keeping things dry and sunny for most. Confirmation of the afternoon temperatures, perhaps reaching 24 in Northern Scotland. Tonight, the temperatures will drop, particularly where skies remain clear and the wind light. We could see Fog Patches in Northern Ireland, northern england, South East scotland. Cloud filtering into the South East will hold up temperatures. Milder in the North And North west of scotland. Heading into tomorrow with another fine day for most but with more cloud i suspect across england and wales, much of it retreating back to the East Coast. Northern ireland and scotland seeing sunshine. Breezy towards the south. The North Sea coast, the speed of wind off the North Sea, feeling cooler. 17 in newcastle. But london, Northern Scotland, Up To 24 25. During Wednesday Night into thursday, you see more change with Cloud Rolling in from the east. A cloudy day generally on thursday particularly in england and wales. Much of it burning back to the East Coast. Northern ireland and scotland seeing a decent amount of Sunshine But Cooler towards the north east. Highest temperatures further west and south. Up to 24. But a change towards the end of the week. The High Pressure slips northwards. Below spins up from the south and that will introduce showers and thunderstorms across parts of england and wales, particularly the further south you are. Further north, Northern Ireland and scotland, it should stay largely dry but over the weekend it will feel cooler. Thats all from todays Bbc News at one. Enjoy the rest of the day. Goodbye. Live from london. This is Bbc News. Instagram plans new protections for young people bringing in teen accounts and introducing stricter parental controls. There are very good at drumming up there are very good at drumming up er in making these big announcements. But they also have to be good at being transparent and sharing how well there measures arent working. Arent working. A 26 year old man appears in court accused of murdering a mother and her two daughters in a Crossbow And Knife attack. And Sir Ed Davey gets ready to serve up his speech, which will close the Liberal Democrat Party Conference in brighton. The social Media Giant Instagram has announced a major change of policy to help protect teenagers and improve their safety online. Under sixteens using the platform will now be put onto whats called teen accounts, with parental controls as a default setting. Social media companies have been under growing pressure to protect children from harmful online content. Heres our Technology Editor zoe kleinman. Instagram already claims to have more than 50 tools aimed at keeping teens safe on its platform. But, so far, the problem of children being exposed to harmful content has not been resolved. Well, i dont know if its social media, but i think, as parents, we should have the right to see it. An Ofcom Study earlier this year found that every single child it spoke to had seen violent material online. Instagram was one of the platforms they mentioned the most. The new measures aim put more control into the hands of parents. Some parents have campaigned for years for better protection for their children
