there were four female women deceased in the shopping centre and one male. and subsequently, another female passed away in hospital. i saw a woman lying on the floor in miss chanel. so, it wasjust like the worst thing ever. our other main story: iran says it's seized an israeli—linked vessel in the strait of hormuz and is transferring it to its territorial waters. and carers uk is warning tens of thousands of people who juggle caring for a loved one with paid employment may be forced to cut their working hours, due to recent wage increases. and in turkey — the rescue is complete for all passengers stranded in a cable car, after an accident last night.

hello and welcome to a bumper sportsday this saturday night. coming up on the programme: what a finish to the grand national, as the joint favourite, i am maximus, storms to victory at aintree. but who will win the race for the green jacket? it's not looking like rory mcilroy�*s year again — we'll have the latest from augusta on day three of the masters. it's pep guardiola and manchester city leading the race for the premier league — too good for luton, and two points clear of arsenal and liverpool, for now. also coming up on sportsday this saturday night: jumping for joy. emma raducanu delivers in the billiejean king cup again, taking great britain past the french on clay and into the finals. and charging towards a sixth consecutive six nations title — no stopping england, as they thrash scotland in edinburgh.

welcome along. thank you forjoining us. it has been quite some day. the masters golf and premier league to come. it's also been a big day for stockport and wrexham. all of that to come, but we start at aintree and the grand national, and what a finish it was! i am maximus, the 7—1 joint favourite, winning it forjockey paul townend and trainer willie mullins. our sports news correspondent laura scott was watching it all. hopefully, you've had some time to catch your breath, because that was some race! it really was. a really nail—biting finish, coming to the last fence, it really looks like anyone could win

it. and again, it has gone to ireland. they trained their first four home in the big race. the atmosphere isjust dying down, but the 70,000 racegoers have had a thrilling day and we know the grand national is always a race that attracts hundreds of millions of people worldwide, tuning into the race. and in the build—up, there had been a lot of attention and equine welfare and a number of changes had been made to the race to try to make it safer. but the spotlight was really on the sport today. and from the moment that the turnstiles were open and people started arriving, the anticipation for the big race was really building. just like those who watch it, the grand national always has colourful stories. but even with just 32 runners to choose from, finding the winner is never easy. this iconic race is viewed around the world. but with spectacle comes scrutiny. in a bid to slow things down, they were meant to

start standing still. some were keen to get going, though.— to get going, though. we're off and racina. to get going, though. we're off and racing- first — to get going, though. we're off and racing. first time. _ to get going, though. we're off and racing. first time. the _ to get going, though. we're off and racing. first time. the first - to get going, though. we're off and racing. first time. the first fence i racing. first time. the first fence was closer. _ racing. first time. the first fence was closer, another— racing. first time. the first fence was closer, another effort - racing. first time. the first fence was closer, another effort to - was closer, another effort to improve safety, but it proved the exit point for last year's winner. at the halfway point, 30 were still in it. but at the chair, two jockeys were unseated. as the race neared its conclusion, the british horses led the way. coming down to last, it was impossible to call. crowd favourite jockey rachel blackmore came to the front, but 30 fences and four miles later, i am maximus launched a late attack. it is four miles later, i am maximus launched a late attack.- four miles later, i am maximus launched a late attack. it is i am maximus who — launched a late attack. it is i am maximus who leads _ launched a late attack. it is i am maximus who leads home - launched a late attack. it is i am maximus who leads home the i maximus who leads home the gladiators!— maximus who leads home the cladiators! , ., , gladiators! fighting off his rivals for his all conquering _ gladiators! fighting off his rivals for his all conquering trainer, i for his all conquering trainer, willie mullins, continuing island's dominance of the sport. 2! horses and all finished and there was welcome news that there had been no fall is. lifting the iconic trophy, there was no question billionaire ownerjp mcmanus and his family had

been entertained. well, willie mullins has had an extraordinary season and fielded eight runners in today's race, quarter of the field. so he had a pretty good chance of winning today. but he has had such a good season. but winning this race clearly meant a huge amount. he had to wait nearly 20 years to win it again after his first win in the race in 2005 with edge hunter. i spoke to him after the race and i asked him what it meant to win it again. i asked him what it meant to win it aaain. ., ., ., , ., again. i mean, to win a grand national. _ again. i mean, to win a grand national. it — again. i mean, to win a grand national, it is _ again. i mean, to win a grand national, it is the _ again. i mean, to win a grand national, it is the first - again. i mean, to win a grand national, it is the first sort i again. i mean, to win a grand national, it is the first sort ofj national, it is the first sort of race you see on tv and everyone wants to win a grand national. it is the introduction tojump racing. and remember the last time i won, i was on cloud nine for the year. i expect to be the same this time. paul townend, winning raiderjp mcmanus winning owner, what a team! find townend, winning raiderjp mcmanus winning owner, what a team! and what about the race — winning owner, what a team! and what about the race itself _ winning owner, what a team! and what about the race itself and _ winning owner, what a team! and what about the race itself and how _ winning owner, what a team! and what about the race itself and how it - about the race itself and how it panned out?—

you. from the big race at aintree to the race for the green jacket at augusta. it's the american's scottie scheffler, bryson dechambeau and max homa sharing the lead at the halfway stage. they begin their third rounds in around an hour, but those chasing — like danny willett, tommy fleetwood and matt fitzpatrick — are under way. as is tiger woods, who made the cut for a record 24th consecutive time. he teed off 45 minutes ago and is so far... he is still one over par. rory mcilroy went out earlier and has struggled to find momentum. he's even for the day, but four—over par overall. this is the latest leaderboard. it is those three americans that have the share of the lead at the top. not long to go for them to go out. they are two clear of nicholas

hoggard. collin morikawa three of the lead. danny willett and tommy fleetwood with much work to do when they get going if they are to close in on the leaders, the top five away from them at the moment. what of those conditions? scottie scheffler is the world number one, a former winner at the masters. and he admits it is tough out there at augusta. yeah, it was extremely challenging. the winds were up very high, and it blows from everywhere out here. so, i think even par this afternoon was a really good score. and, yeah, i can't really describe how windy it is and how difficult the gusts are just because, i mean, ithink you just have to be out there and experience it. like hitting shots into i! and 12 today, it's so difficult. i've struck the ball really well. but proud of what has gone on with

amazing, amazing. i think it is entertaining, three amazing teams, liverpool and arsenal doing great. as we are doing as well. so it will be tough until the end and let's see who will have the strongest nerves until the end. the race for european football next season is heating up too. but tottenham's hopes of finishing in the top four have taken a hit, after they were thrashed 4—0 at newcastle who, in turn, have done their hopes of qualifying for the europa league a power of good. drew savage was watching: newcastle united almost couldn't believe their luck and despite a lengthy injury list, eddie howe's side sent fans home happy with the roofless, clinical performance. spurs had the best of the first half hour, but that afternoon was perhaps summed up by timo werner�*s attempt to convertjohnson's excellent to convert johnson's excellent cross. to convertjohnson's excellent cross. newcastle took the lead after a mistake from a hugely reliable normally spurs defender. filth. a mistake from a hugely reliable normally spurs defender. 0h, he has fallen over! —

to them, but we've just got to take that. i think we showed today that we can still be a very efficient team, ruthless with our attacking, very diligent, as i said, and compact. everybody did theirjobs from a defensive perspective which isn't easy against a quality team like tottenham. so everything came together and we deserved to win. frustration for nottingham forest and their push to avoid the drop, morgan gibbs—white on the scoresheet for them at the city ground, but nuno espirito santo thwarted by his former side wolves, who ensured they left with a 2—all draw. forestjust a point clear of the bottom three. manchester united are currently playing at bournemouth and are 2—1 behind thanks to this classy finish from justin kluivert. if things stay as they are, manchester united would end the day seventh after starting

the day in sixth. it is not going their way at the moment _ brentford beat bottom side sheffield united 2—0 to get their first win in ten league games and ease their relegation fears. burnley were held i—all by brighton, keeping them six points from safety. bournemouth 2—0 up against united. celtic are four points clear at the top of the scottish premiership tonight, after a 3—0 win over st mirren — all the goals coming in the second half. that gives them daylight from rangers, but they have played two games more. third—placed hearts beat livingston 4—2, kilmarnock were 2—0 winners at stjohnstone, whilst the points were shared at aberdeen and motherwell. after leicester's defeat at plymouth, leeds had the chance to go top of the championship today, but that is not what happened at elland road, their unbeaten run at home coming to an end. thanks to sammie szmodics' goal eight minutes from the end, what a season he's having! how crucial these three points could be for blackburn

and their fight for survival. elland road shell—shocked, with leeds having dominated the game. they remain third, a point behind leicester, in second, having played a game more. and it's ipswich who are top of the championship tonight, but only by a point. they too failed to win. i—all, the final score against a dogged middlesbrough side at portman road. southampton, in fourth, scored a 99th—minute winner to beat watford, west brom beaten by sunderland, norwich, in sixth, i—0 winners at preston. a big win for birmingham, a point clear of the bottom three, after a 3—0 victory over coventry. nothing settled in the championship today, nor in league one — the champagne remains on ice for the leaders, portsmouth, who drew! all with bolton. but playing in league one next season will be stockport county, who've beaten morecambe 2—0 to win promotion from league two at edgeley park. and ryan reynolds and rob mcelhenney have delivered the sequel, having jumped from the national league last season, wrexham are now

promoted to league one, after a 6—0 win over forest green rovers. much more reaction to that and the rest of the day's football on the bbc sport website. time now for some of the day's other sport stories. england bowler liam livingstone took one wicket and all rounder sam curran two for punjab kings, but their contributions weren't enough to avoid a three—wicket defeat to rajastan royals in the indian premier league. it will be an all—spanish front row for moto gp�*s grand prix of the americas this weekend. maverick vinales smashed the lap record at the circuit of the americas by half a second, beating pedro acosta and marc marquez to pole. great britain won men's and women's team pursuit gold, as the final round of the track nations cup got under way in milton, canada. there was also a bronze for mark stewart in the elimination race. this weekend's event is the final opportunity for britain's track cyclists to race before this summer's paris 0lympics.

it really all has been happening this afternoon. gripped to the tennis as well. great britain are into november's billiejean king cup, finals after a stunning 3—1 win on the clay in france. katie boulter�*s defeat yesterday left victory even further out of reach, britain the underdogs going into the tie, remember. but boulter won today, as did emma raducanu again, russell joins us now, russelljoins us now, that was incredible, in particularfrom emma raducanu. we found out french number one caroline garcia would take no part in the saturday singles, which would have hit katie boulter hard, she is a clay—court novice at the elite level and she lost and lost 12

games in a row. she was beaten on friday. she knew she would have to play well to beat the top 50 player and did exactly that, winning 7—5, 6-0. with and did exactly that, winning 7—5, 6—0. with france still the favourites for the doubles, emma raducanu almost knew she needed to win her singles match for the second time in two days. and having dropped the first set, she once again came from behind to win in three sets, eating —— beating diane parry. it went into a third set tie—break, in which raducanu played brilliantly, serving brilliantly, some very potent and clinical forehand shots as she won that tie—break 7—i. so great britain reaped france in france on clay 3—i great britain reaped france in france on clay 3—1 and they will take their place in the billiejean king cup finals in seville in november. and not necessarily an outcome many of us were expecting. great win for great britain. i would tennis correspond russell fuller in france,

thank you. —— our tennis correspondent. casper ruud has beaten world number one novak djokovic 6—4, taking it to a deciding set. thrashed his opponent in that second set. but casper ruud lost to djokovic last year, getting some revenge here. djokovic with work to do. 0ut he goes of the monte carlo masters. ruud will play stefanos tsistsipas in the final, after he beat australian open champion jannick sinner in three sets. sinner had lostjust once this season before this match. and he was a break up in the deciding set, but had some injury issues. tsitsipas, a two—time winner in monaco, fought back. sinner and djokovic was what we thought in the final, but we won't get that.

england have continued their perfect start to the women's six nations as they swept to a 46 points to nil win in scotland. they remain top of the standings, with three bonus—point wins, while scotland are fourth after their second defeat of the championship. nick parrott reports. despite the weather, nothing could dampen the spirits in edinburgh as hive stadium welcomed record crowd for a scottish women'srugby match. the fans almost witnessed an upset against france, but they knew taking on defending champions england would be an even tougher task. last year, they were thrashed by 58—7. this time, they faced another storm. it took england just six minutes to reach scotland's defence. they did it again soon after. this up with a display of speed and flair before abby dow completed the move. although they couldn't convert either of the first two tries, england showed skill with the boot to further extend their lead through ellie kildunne. the weather improved for the second half, but scotland

didn't. they quickly secured the bonus point try. with the game as good as won, game started —— gap started to appear much in the light ofjess breach. despite going down to 14 ofjess breach. despite going down to ia players after a sending off for this, the visitors charged on. breach and player of the match killed on both claimed second try is with ease and captain marlie packer came off the bench to complete the rout. ~ , , ., ~ came off the bench to complete the rout. ~ ,, .,~ ., came off the bench to complete the rout. ,, . ., rout. we speak about confidence and takin: the rout. we speak about confidence and taking the handbrake _ rout. we speak about confidence and taking the handbrake off— rout. we speak about confidence and taking the handbrake off and - rout. we speak about confidence and taking the handbrake off and in - rout. we speak about confidence and taking the handbrake off and in each| taking the handbrake off and in each game, we arejust taking the handbrake off and in each game, we are just doing that little bit more to take the handbrake off and see what this england side is capable of. and each game, we seem to unlock a new strength, a new strategy and we are building for the big ones at the end. irate strategy and we are building for the big ones at the end.— strategy and we are building for the big ones at the end. we have shown we have improved, _ big ones at the end. we have shown we have improved, we _ big ones at the end. we have shown we have improved, we put - big ones at the end. we have shown we have improved, we put in - big ones at the end. we have shown we have improved, we put in good l we have improved, we put in good performances against wales and france, — performances against wales and france, two teams above us in the world _ france, two teams above us in the world rankings, so we are going in the right— world rankings, so we are going in the right direction. today wasn't good _ the right direction. today wasn't good enough and there are glimpses we have _ good enough and there are glimpses we have good things in us, we just let them _ we have good things in us, we just let them off the hook and when a team _ let them off the hook and when a team like — let them off the hook and when a team like that gets on the front foot, _ team like that gets on the front foot, it — team like that gets on the front foot, it is — team like that gets on the front foot, it is difficult. so team like that gets on the front foot, it is difficult.— foot, it is difficult. so england continued _ foot, it is difficult. so england continued their _ foot, it is difficult. so england continued their march - foot, it is difficult. so englandj continued their march towards another title, while scotland will

hope they can bounce back against more equal opponents. and ireland have gotten off the mark in the last few moments, cruising to a 36—5 bonus point victory against wales in cork. that result takes them above scotland and italy in the table to third. wales remain at the bottom, with three defeats from three. france play italy tomorrow. harlequins are through to rugby union's champions cup semi—finals for the first time, after a dramatic a2—ai victory away to bordeaux. quins were missing joe marler and danny care, but scored six tries against the french side — tyrone green put them ahead a2 points to 36. only for bordeaux to strike back, with four minutes to go, and score a sixth try of their own. bordeaux just a single point behind, so it all came down to the conversion — maxime lucu stepping up. the match in the balance.

but, that, the wrong side of the post. so joy for harlequins at the final whistle. they'll play exeter or toulouse in the semis. leinster leading la rochelle. work to do there. northampton saints v bulls at 20:00. there's also rugby league challenge cup quarter finals taking place. tottenham hotspur women are set for the biggest game in their history on sunday. they've reached the fa cup semi—finals for the first time, and will be at home to leicester as they look to earn a place in next month's final at wembley. in the last round, they shocked the three—time winners manchester city, with goalkeeper becky spencer their hero. chris slegg has been to meet her. manchester city and england's alex

and the outlook is pointing to very much the opposite — colder weather on the way. if we look at the satellite picture, you can see a gentle drift of the clouds from the south—west here. but the colder air is waiting in the north atlantic, and that's where the shower clouds will come from as well. and in fact, over the next few days, the colder air will have its origin in the arctic. so a real chill on the way for some of us. i think we'll feel that chill particularly on monday. 0k, back to the here and now, and evening temperatures will have still hovered around the high teens in east anglia and the south east, but already, only single figures across most of scotland. and through this evening and overnight, we'll have clear skies across the bulk of the uk. but we will also have showers for a time crossing scotland, some of them, wintry across the hills. the winds not particularly strong overnight. fairly chilly in the morning on sunday, perhaps a touch of frost in the sheltered glens of scotland. and further south, in our bigger towns and cities, temperatures in the range of, say, 6 to 8 celsius. so sunday's weather forecast —

lots of sparkling sunshine right from the word go. a beautiful start to the day, but then clouds will bubble up. first, the small fairweather clouds and then the bigger shower clouds, and showers are certainly possible across more northern and north—western parts of the country. and look at the temperatures — 15 in london, 10 degrees in glasgow. that is the average for the time of the year. it'll feel colder on monday, with this low pressure barrelling across the uk. look at the isobars and the winds coming in from the north. a cold, cutting wind, really a very chilly wind for some of us, bringing showers, also hail and thunder possible, but also, some sunny spells in—between. and the temperatures, well, below par for the time of the year, with this air originating from the northern climes. possibly around about 12 degrees in london and single figures across northern ireland, scotland and parts of northern england as well. is it going to stay chilly for most of the week? it is, to an extent, with further showers on the way. but i think as we head towards thursday and friday, there is an indication that there will be another change

in the wind direction, and we'll see those values rising once again just a bit. bye— bye. live from london, this is bbc news. at least six people are dead in sydney after a man stabs multiple people in a busy shopping centre. fourfemale...women deceased in
