queen elizabeth misses the annual remembrance day service in london for the first time in 22 years, after the 95—year—old monarch is said to have sprained her back. hello and welcome if you're watching in the uk or around the world. three men have been arrested by counter—terror police as part of an investigation into an explosion at a hospital in liverpool in north—western england. one person died and another person was injured in the incident outside the liverpool women's hospitaljust before 11 o'clock this morning. on twitter, prime minister borisjohnson said... 0ur correspondent phil mccann is outside the liverpool women's hospital. i'm standing just in front of the entrance to the hospital where this happened. just slightly to the left out of our shot, a taxi drove up to the entrance just before 11am and at 10:59am, people in this part of liverpool heard an explosion. we spoke to a woman who is a patient here and said she was heading outside, she heard this really loud bang and the security team sealed the exits to stop people going out. the police later confirmed that that e

buckingham palace says queen elizabeth has sprained her back and has, with great regret, decided not to attend the annual remembrance day service in london to honour britain's war dead. the service would have been the queen's first public engagement since she was advised to rest following a night in hospital last month. the queen, who is 95, regards the service as one of her most important public duties. our royal correspondentjonny dymond is at the cenotaph in westminster. it's what one palace official describes as incredibly unfortunate timing, and that is bad timing on two fronts. primarily because it is remembrance sunday, it is a national service of remembrance here in the uk. it's the most important day in the royal calendar, the day when the royal family in general, and the queen in particular, pays tribute to those who laid down their lives for their country. but there is a second piece of bad timing, which is that the queen had effectively taken two weeks off from official engagements. a fortnight ago it was announced that she'd no longer be doing any external engagements. i

impacts of climate change playing out around the world that ramp up every year, every season, we had elizabeth talking they are about the rainy season is disappearing from heartland and the impacts of that. but i think we are seeing so much more than that, the suffering caused by this and the emotion that is running out and so many of the speeches, all point to this moral obligation. i think that has set the tone. it is ironic that we talked, prince charles talked about finding fine words and moving on to fine actions. this has been a day of fine words but it sets the tone for this difficult negotiation ahead. does it leave delegates _ difficult negotiation ahead. does it leave delegates feeling, _ difficult negotiation ahead. does it leave delegates feeling, perhaps l leave delegates feeling, perhaps more importantly the people appealing to them, the protesters outside the venue, do you think it is going to leave them feeling a little bit more hopeful than they were perhaps after that he in rome yesterday? do they have a greater sense, do you think, that something concrete will come out of th

police scotland are investigating a number of other deaths at the queen elizabeth university hospital in glasgow which is already the subject of a public enquiry. nhs greater glasgow and clyde said it has been open and honest about mr slorance's kate and there has been no attempt case and there has been no attempt to conceal any information from the family. ten—year—old millie was being treated for leukaemia at the hospital campus and she died after contracting an infection found in water. a review found that infection was probably caused by the hospital environment. her mother says the hospital should be closed. nicola sturgeon led the tributes to mr slorance when he died, saying the government was devastated. she faced questions in parliament today about his case and the hospital in which he died. enough is enough. this is the worst scandal of the devolution era i and in any other country. in the world there would be resignations and sackings but under this government, it is i denial and cover—up. how many more families had to lose a loved ones before anyone - is held to accou

believe that this happened about ten o'clock these morning uk time as the aircraft carrier hms queen elizabeth was sailing through the mediterranean sea on return from an operation that has been doing out in the east. we are told by the mod that this was a routine flying operation, essentially a training mission and to keep up the pilots flying hours. when something went wrong and the pilot felt that he or she needed to eject from the aircraft of the piloted, the pilot has been recovered safely back to the aircraft carrier but it means that the jet has gone down into the sea, has been lost. that's inexpensive playing, the important thing ——plane is that the pilot is safe after that search and rescue mission. at it will now be an investigation to work out what caused it. it's a huge programme, they are aiming to deliver over a hundred of thesejets in time. but it's still relatively early stages. although this is been in development for almost a decade now. it's only actually been operational with the raf and the navy for the last couple of years. so to lose one relatively early in the progr

i think queen elizabeth is one of the great leaders of the 20th century going into the 21st century, but equally it comes home when you put it in a different context. would you expect the president of the united states of america to come from brazil? it's almost preposterous to think about it. so, that whilst you say that, you begin to understand why dismantling those aspects of the colonial legacy become absolutely important, but not in a way that is antagonistic or adversarial. and i'm very happy that we continue to work as friends, as close partners with the united kingdom. i'm happy that prince charles has accepted our invitation to join us. we believe and have tremendous respect for him, but we've also felt that we have a younger generation that is ready to say, "look, we want to be global citizens with barbadian roots." the prime minister of barbados explaining the decision to become a republic. we can speak now to guy hewitt, former barbados high commissioner to the uk. he joins us live from florida. thank you much for being with us. it's good to speak to you. do you view this

elizabeth followed the king in paying her tribute, there were few among the silent crowd who did not recall the comradeship of war years. during her reign, the rhythm of remembrance has barely changed. the queen represents a generation now fighting to ensure memories don't fade. veterans david godwin and peter turner showed me around their home, the royal hospital in chelsea. they feel a deep responsibility to keep rememberance relevant, and believe the queen is an important part of that. she is so much front and centre. she is everything what remembrance is about. she's — because she served in the war, she earned her medals. she wore the uniform, and she wore the uniform as a female in the services and as part of the royal family. we owe her a great gratitude. when we signed up in the services, we signed up an oath of allegiance to the queen, and not necessarily the country, but the queen. the queen is the head of the armed forces, the queen is who we work for, and a lot of what we do is to maintain what she stands for. when the queen cancelled a number of engagements last month o
