british cap since the rio paralympics and she qualified in third position, with 15—year—old briton maisie summers newton qualifying fastest. when i caught up with simmonds at the end of her race, she admitted she was focused on her long—term targets. to be honest, i'm not really thinking about medals at the minute, i'm just rented about their own race tonight. like i say, me and my coach say "mission: 2020", that's our aim. this isjust... i was just so surprised to make the team, let alone be here and race tonight. i'm just going to see how it goes. the british s14s continued to dominate, this time in the 200m freestyle. jessica —jane applegate qualified fastest in the women's event and world—record holder and commonwealth champion tom hamer qualified in second. but he reassured me there was more to come this evening with hopes to add to his medal collection. tiger woods was meant to be taking a non—playing role at this autumn‘s ryder cup but the usa captain jim furyk may yet consider him for a place in the team, saying his performances are hard to ignore. woods finished second

we saw maisie summers newton going in their women's 50 metres freestyle. she qualified in fourth position with her team—mate ellie robinson. they will have some tough competition from the ukrainians who are ranked number one and number two. a really interesting race there. looking ahead to the finals, there. looking ahead to the finals, the s 14 there. looking ahead to the finals, the 514100 there. looking ahead to the finals, the s 14100 metres women's breaststroke will take place later on, with louise fitt is making the fastest time in europe this year. she will have tough competition from her team—mates. lots to look forward to the first day competition. many thanks indeed. the world boccia championships are taking place in liverpool right now and there has already been some success for great britain today. world number one in the bc one class, david smith beat subin tipmanee of thailand 15—0. that makes it two wins out of two for the paralympic champion and puts him through to the last 16 with a game to spare. india captain virat kohli says he's

guests at the big day included fellow stars from the hit show peter dinklage and maisie williams. let's return. we are entering the 94th minute of england's world cup game against panama. 6—1. four minutes of injury time. we are nearly there. panama, this game has been described as a history maker. for panama it has been fantastic because they have scored their first world cup goal. fantastic for harry kane, his hat—trick. basically matching geoff hurst and gary lineker at scoring three in a game ata lineker at scoring three in a game at a world cup. just a reminder that england's biggest winning margin at the world cup is three goals, so they have done superbly. everybody is hoping for a magnificent seven. let's just listening to the last few seconds. it is taking place in nizhny novgorod. attention turning to what england can do against belgium and then the knockout phase is that lie beyond that. england will have much tougher test than this to come, but england have passed this on with flying colours. all the damage done in an exhilarating first 45 minutes. john stones got

we asked maisie what she wants to do next and she said she wants to do some colouring. which i think is a much better answer. yeah. gold, gold colouring? probably. she'll be drawing a lot of pictures of oscars, i think. i bet she will. colin patterson, bbc news, los angeles. now before we go, we had to show you this. 2—year—old parker curry took over the internet recently when this photo was posted of her staring in awe at the new portrait of michelle obama at the national portrait gallery in washington, dc. the picture was captured by a bystander also waiting to see the painting. well, if things couldn't get any more exciting for the toddler, today, the two met in person and even had a dance party. michelle obama posted the video on twitter and told parker: "keep on dreaming big for yourself, and maybe one day, i'll proudly look up at a portrait of you." that is it for now. thanks for watching. hello again. it felt like we had two different seasons across the uk yesterday, north to south. across northern areas in scotland, we had heavy snow causing transport disrup

maisie was there with her family, watching on with all the stars. colin patterson went to see her as she soaks up the glory. a star is born. six years old and profoundly deaf, maisie sly has now played the main role in an oscar—winning film, and seems to be pretty unfazed by all the attention. just tell me about your day at the oscars? i feel happy, i felt really happy. i want her to speak... the silent child is about a deaf girl struggling to communicate as her family don‘t want her to learn sign language. it was made by two former stars of the show hollyoaks. the silent child, chris overton and rachel shenton. it won best live action short. maisie was up on the balcony at the oscars with her mum, while her dad watched nearby with family and friends, and this was their reaction. the silent child... screaming. after midnight, the winner made her entrance. and as for what‘s next — well, maisie could return to the role, there are plans to adapt the silent child into a full length feature. absolutely extending the film‘s what we would like to

maisie sly, who's profoundly deaf, plays the title role in the silent child. it tells the story of a social worker, who helps a deaf child learn to communicate through sign language. it saw off tough competition to be crowned best live action short film. andy howard reports from los angeles. upfrom a up from a small screening at a primary school in swindon all the way to hollywood in seven months, what a journey. this is the silent child house party, friends, family, film crew are here watching the oscars. is there a more nervous run on all of los angeles? i don't think so. on all of los angeles? i don't think so. here's hoping. the world is watching six—year—old maisie sly, but it seems it's the adults with the nerves. you can ask everyone who was here, maisie was mellow, chill, looking around as if to say, what are you panicking about? eventually, the moment they'd waited for arrived. and the oscar goes to the silent child. he told me he was in tears just dropping maisie often have her here and make—up done, so what about now? my and make—up done, so

thank you for watching —— good luck, maisie. hello there. we have seen treacherous conditions widely across the uk, and scenes like this as a result of the heavy snow. early on we had a red warning from the met office for the south west and parts of wales. we still have warnings of more snow to come as we head into the morning. across northern ireland and scotland, and the north—east of england, frequent snow showers, and those warnings expire at ten o'clock. expiring a little earlier, this amber warning further south, where we have seen the focus of very snowy weather, mostly across hampshire. storm emma has pushed its way northward into the cold air, the beast from the east, but perhaps things won't be quite so bad by the time we get to the end of the night, but it will be cold, not as cold because there is a good deal of cloud around and we still have easterly winds. there is a threat of more snow on friday, we have the showers across scotland and the north of england, and more snow could arrive across southern parts of england and into
