more cloud for england and wales, could keep some rain across some northern and eastern parts of england, may well turn a bit brighter with some sunshine, but again, some showers for wales, the south west and later the midlands. and for all of us, it's a bit cooler, the temperatures typically around nine celsius or so. now we've got cooler weather because we're changing the wind direction. instead of that very mild south—westerly that we started the week with, it's more of a north westerly wind turning northerly across england and wales as we head into thursday. around the top of that area of high pressure, some weather fronts will bring some wetter, windy weather across the north, but we've still got some rain to clearfrom overnight across southern parts of england. that cloud could be very slow to break up, other parts of england, of wales seeing some sunshine, more cloud coming into scotland and northern ireland, wet and windy weather coming into the far north of scotland. temperatures could make double figures in scotland and northern ireland, but it's chilly 8—9 celsius for engl

further southwards, temperatures across england, wales range between 7—10. now, next weekend is looking dry as well. high pressure that we have still holding on to the south of the uk should mean that we'll have largely dry weather across england and wales with more sunshine. always likely to be a bit more cloud, though, across northern parts of the uk. bye— bye. welcome to bbc news. iran's supreme leader is pardoning a large number of prisoners, including some of those arrested during the past months of protests. the pardon by ayatollah khamenei comes on the eve of the anniversary of the islamic revolution in 1979, a date on which an amnesty is often given to prisoners. though the country's state media says the pardons exclude people facing charges of spying for foreign agencies, murder or the destrusction of state property. taraneh stone, from the bbc�*s persian service, says those freed have several conditions attached to their release. one of those conditions is that they should not be linked to any spying activity, they should not be facing any char

but again, plenty of sunshine in the forecast across england and wales. scotland and northern ireland do have some thicker cloud and there might be an odd bit of drizzle first thing in the morning, but essentially a lot of dry weather and it will probably try to brighten up. some of the day's highest temperatures tomorrow will be across the north, ten in both belfast and glasgow. fortuesday, again, it's the largely dry day, but i think there's a much greater chance of seeing some extensive and dense patches of mist and fog, some of that lingering into the afternoon across southern parts of england and wales where the weather could be really quite chilly. away from that, though, some brighter weather pushing into western scotland, perhaps a few spots of drizzle crossing northern ireland and moving into northern england for a time. now, wednesday, the winds start to pick up again. and so that should mean the mist and fog is less extensive and probably will be quicker to clear. there'll be a few bright or sunny spells breaking through, particularly to the ea

a victory that led to england regaining the ashes. although everyone agrees about how entertaining the cricket was, not everyone is happy about how england approached the match. some have criticised captain ben stokes�* decision to enforce the follow on— that is, to make new zealand bat again after their first innings. it allowed the hosts to recover from being way behind in the match. it fits with england's ultra—aggressive approach to test cricket which they say could save the sport. earlier, i spoke to cricket analyst and former player simon hughes and i asked him whether it's more important to win or be entertaining: my my feeling that, in a way, does really matter it's really exciting game and really performances in sports to me are about entertainment. in professional sports come anyway. and so, if it's really compelling, but since the game it makes me want to play the game it makes me want to play the game that is what we are all trained to do as a former professional sportsman. and if it was really exciting game even tho

for most of us, it's going to be dry, certainly dry across much of england and wales. scotland is a slightly different story. it could turn really wet and blustery towards the end of the week. but this is what we've got right now. high pressure in charge of the weather across europe. we're on the edge of the high pressure, and that means that the southerly winds are drawing in mild air over us and, with that, a fair bit of cloud to northern ireland and western scotland through the course of tuesday but elsewhere, it should be a bright if not sunny day, the sunnier skies further towards the east. and temperatures will be up to around 13 degrees, so relatively mild for the time of year. and this is the following night, so tuesday into wednesday. notice how that weather front approaches and rain sweeps into northern ireland and western parts of scotland. so this is early in the morning on wednesday. it's frost free, generally speaking, and actually quite mild across western parts of the uk. now, the reason why the weather fronts are pushing in is because this area of high

some patchy rain perhaps for northern ireland and the far north of england. further south, though, some spells of sunshine, a breezy day, a windy day up towards the north of scotland, although not as windy as it has been today, and temperatures between ten and 14 degrees. so it is going to be another very mild feeling day and it stays mild as we head into the start of the new week. frontal systems up to the north. so some rain at times in the north of scotland, but to the south of that will be in a wedge of mild air. so temperatures to start the new week widely into double digits. it does look like turning a little more unsettled and perhaps a little chillier later in the week. this is bbc news with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. five former police officers in the us plead not guilty to murdering the young black man, tyre nichols, last month. his mother demands justice. i want each and every one of those officers to look me in the face. they haven't done that yet, they couldn't even do that today. gunfire and explosions as po
