you might not know that. i mean, he was the opposite a lot of the time from the image he had on stage. so there it is, a free exhibition of a lifetime of memories that will, in a few weeks, he sold off in six freddie sales. this is a once—only moment. they are expecting quite a few visitors. david sillito, bbc news, sotheby�*s. time for a look at the weather. here's chris fawkes. the weather is ok over the next couple of days. we are talking about a mixture of sunny spells and showers. the clouds already building across parts of the south west midlands and they will produce showers later today. the greatest risk of seeing showers will be across the midlands and increasingly eastern england. at the same time,

wales and south—west england probably seen fewer showers this afternoon and probably more sunshine. a few light showers coming and going in northern ireland and frequent showers in northern scotland today. a cool day, temperatures below par for the time of year. showers keep going tonight across north—east scotland and england with temperatures between 11 and 14. tomorrow we do it all again. another showery day. most starting on a dry note with sunshine and showers getting going in the afternoon. they will favour eastern england because here we have a convergence zone with wind being bashed together and the showers are most likely to form. away from that you have a decent chance of dryness tomorrow afternoon with sunshine coming through. temperatures between the high teens and low 20s. however, we have more rain in the forecast and those totals are mounting up, particularly as we get into saturday. we are only three days into the new month and parts of southern england have already had a third of the �*s worth of rain and

there is more to come from this area of low pressure on saturday bringing notjust of low pressure on saturday bringing not just wet but windy weather well. the wet weather arriving initially on friday night and saturday morning in northern ireland. localised flooding with the rain being intense. from there the rain sweeps into england and wales during saturday with the strongest winds reaching 60 mph in western wales, in the 50s in southern england, bringing localised disruption and the heavy rain around as well. some of the brightest weather will be further north in scotland, a mixture of sunny spells, passing showers, the weather 0k of sunny spells, passing showers, the weather ok but temperature is not great, 14—16 in the north end may be 17 further south. we have seen these kinds of outlooks for many weeks now, more showers in the forecast through sunday, staying and settled on monday and tuesday. however, then we should see a big change in the weather into the latter part of next week with the first area of high pressure for more than seven weeks. that's why it has

been so wet. we don't know how long it will hang around, may be just a few days but it should mean some of us finally get a taste of summer. a lot drier and sunnier with temperatures in the high 20s and low 30s in the hottest areas. thanks, chris. and that's bbc news at one. you can keep up with all the latest developments on the bbc website. the news continues here on bbc one, as now it's time to join our colleagues across the nations and regions for the news where you are. goodbye. hello and welcome to sportsday. i'm hugh ferris. our top stories this afternoon. european champions eight times. twice they've won the world cup. but germany are out of this year's tournament. a famous win for england at another world cup. a semi final place had already been booked, but australia suffer a rare defeat in cape town. and the latest sports

star to get involved with english football, tom brady, at birmigham city. the women's world cup has lost another heavyweight. after brazil and canada, now germany have failed to reach the knockout stage for the first time, with colombia and morocco qualifying from group h. the two time champions went behind to south korea, who only had a tiny chance of qualifying themselves, but germany's equaliser from alexandra popp briefly had them going through. but the second goal they needed never came, and after 15 minutes of injury time, the final whistle did.

germany go out. germany's draw wasn't enough because of morocco�*s 1—0 win over colombia, who join them in the last 16. they're the only one of the eight debutants in australia and new zealand to qualify from their group, and they've finished runners up behind colombia on goal difference despite beating them. anissa lahmari with the winner. three african teams through to the last 16 in australia and new zealand. seven—time super bowl champion tom brady has become the latest high profile sports star to get involved with an english football club. lebronjames has a small stake in liverpool. jj watt is a burnley shareholder. and now brady has become a minority owner at a championship team. heroes the deal. i'm officially coming on board at birmingham football club. birmingham city football club. birmingham's new owners say they've entered into a partnership

with the nfl legend, who will become the chair of an advisory board, offering up his expertise on nutrition and opening up possible new commercial deals. brady retired from playing earlier this year, while birmingham finished 17th in the championship and haven't been in the premier league since 2011. both had already qualified for the semifinals but england's victory over australia at the netball world cup was a historic one nonetheless. the roses had never beaten the world number ones at the tournament before, but held on for a 56—55 victory in cape town. england held their nerve to earn a stunning win over the commonwealth champions, overturning an eight—goal third—quarter deficit. eleanor cardwell with the deciding goal as england finish as group winners above australia, who will play jamaica in the last four. england's semifinal will very likely be against defending champions new zealand.

it is massively important moment for this group in particular, it adds to our confidence bank but we know that we have two games to come as a means nothing if we can't follow it up but today, it is important to allow these guys to celebrate that. i think it's a fact that we were eight down and then to be pushed in the last 15 and still come out on top, i don't you can underestimate mentally what that tells me about where the group are, that's the scary thing about summing to really look forward to as we head towards the semifinals. i to as we head towards the semifinals.— to as we head towards the semifinals. ~' �* , ., ., ., semifinals. i think there's a lot of ositives semifinals. i think there's a lot of positives to _ semifinals. i think there's a lot of positives to take. _ semifinals. i think there's a lot of positives to take. we _ semifinals. i think there's a lot of positives to take. we are - semifinals. i think there's a lot ofj positives to take. we are building each _ positives to take. we are building each game, the first i was really strong, — each game, the first i was really strong, with able to get an eight -oal strong, with able to get an eight goal lead~ — strong, with able to get an eight goal lead. unfortunately, we let the men in _ goal lead. unfortunately, we let the men in the — goal lead. unfortunately, we let the men in the third quarter time so it's men in the third quarter time so it'sjust — men in the third quarter time so it'sjust about building men in the third quarter time so it's just about building that throughout the game and not letting them come back in so it'sjust the intensity— them come back in so it'sjust the intensity of — them come back in so it'sjust the intensity of each five minute block. jamaica finished top of their group by beating new zealand 59—48. the silver ferns are only two points ahead of south africa, who are yet to play today. but given they can't be split

by head—to—head results after their draw yesterday, it'll go to goal difference and south africa would have to beat uganda by 63 to go through. so the semifinals are pretty much set and england go into them on the back of a significant victory. for more on this, we caught up with the bbc�*s netball commentator katherine merry who is in cape town for us. this was a big victory, so big that the psychological lift now that the ingo rose will have is massive. it was a really good hard—fought win today. the difference today with england and the difference for england and the difference for england throughout this net bell world cup so far has been their consistency. they were five up at one time, then they went six down. it was an absolute roller—coaster of a ride but the tactical changes that

they made, some of the errors that australia made of because worked in their favour but england were cool, calm and collected. i asked, who do you not want to play in the semifinals and she said i don't fear anybody, bringing on. i genuinely do believe her. england have a chance to win this and maybe just maybe snatch a global gold medal away from australia, like they did a few years ago at the commonwealth games. wales secured a top ten finish after beating trinidad and tobago in their final pool game. the welsh had a slim four—point lead after a tight and physical first half. however a ten—goal third period advantage saw them take control of the game, which they won 70—55. scotland survived a scare to beat fiji 62—46. the thistles will play wales in their placing match on saturday for ninth or tenth place.

it's the first day of the uci cycling world championship in glasgow today, but it's been a disappointing start for great britain. the defence of their men's team pursuit title ended after a crash in qualifying, as charlie tanfield slipped coming out of the final corner. britain were already down to three riders so did not set an official time and went out of the competition, having been on course for the second fastest qualifying time behind denmark. tanfield received medical treatment on the track for several minutes before being able to walk off unassisted. meanwhile, the venue for the next rugby league world cup has changed again. that was also due to be in france in 2025 but was postponed a year after they withdrew for financial reasons. so now the southern hemisphere will host the tournament in 2026 the last edition of the competition was held in the uk in 2022. the same year france was awarded hosting rights for the next one after initial plans for it to be held in north america for the first time were scrapped. the ashes test series has also been

reinstated with england's men and women to tour australia in 2025. the reality is competitions are significant in their organisation. it was always going to be difficult for france. that's another 12 months less than france had. we did get a proposalfor less than france had. we did get a proposal for 2025 less than france had. we did get a proposalfor 2025 from a less than france had. we did get a proposal for 2025 from a country but we fought the gratitude and its success was to move it to 2026 and in a different format as well. not only for this world cup is a future world cups going forward. england continue their rugby world cup preparations in a match against wales on saturday. flanker tom pearson makes his debut, while potential debutants theo dan and tom willis are on the bench. ellis genge will captain the side,

as marcus smith starts at fly—half. smith last started for england in the 53—10 defeat by france in the six nations and is joined by harlequins team—mate danny care at scrum—half. none of the players who featured in the premiership final are in the starting xv. the world cup starts in france next month. and finally, just to remind you of our top story this afternoon. germany are out of the women's world cup, deld to a i—all draw by korea. germany are out of the women's world cup, held to a 1—1 draw by south korea. they exit at the group stages in the biggest shock of the tournament so far. they, of course, reached the european final last year and were one of the pre—tournament favourites. they have won this competition twice, although some of the pretournament favourites. marco's win over colombia means that they offer instead. check these pictures

offer instead. check these pictures of celebration, when morocco confirmed not only a victory over colombia but also defying the odds to reach the last 16. they were thrashed in their first game of the tournament by germany 6—0. three african teams have made the last 16. you can get all the latest sports news at from the bbc sport app, orfrom our website. that's bbc.co.uk/sport. from me and the rest of the team at the bbc sport centre, goodbye. you are watching bbc news. let's get more on the bank of england's decision to raise interest rates by a quarter

of i% to 5.25%. it's the 14th rate rise in a row and means they're at their highest for more than 15 years as part of the bank's efforts to tackle high inflation. here's the bank of england governor andrew bailey. low and stable inflation is the foundation of a healthy economy. high inflation hurts the least well—off the most. the projection that we present today is very much in two parts. i'm going to begin with the first part, which is the near term outlook for inflation over the remainder of this year. before then turning to the second, which is the medium term outlook and the implications for monetary policy. so starting with the near—term outlook. this chart shows the evolution of consumer price inflation and its components since 2018. it shows that inflation has come off the peak in october last year and that it continues to fall over the rest of this year

in our near term projection. that's the piece shown in the shaded part of the chart. now this all can be attributed in large part to a fall in contribution from energy. fuel prices have declined and electricity and gas prices have stabilised, albeit at a higher level. the dark orange bars in this chart show how the contribution from energy prices is falling and turning negative, we think, in the coming months. now, given ofgem's price cap on electricity and gas bills, and the way it slows down the pass through of wholesale energy prices to consumer bills, we expect inflation to take a further step down in thejuly data, which will be published in two weeks' time. we think that will come down to around 7% at that point, followed by another larger step down in 0ctober�*s data, which will be published in november to around about 5% on that basis. now, this more gradual pass also substantially helps to explain the difference between current

headline inflation in this country and in the euro area, where wholesale energy prices feed
