from tokyo, here's ruper wingfield hayes. in tokyo today, a huge production with lots of pizzazz for what is a fairly dull looking family car. it's the new nissan leaf. so, why are we here? why does this matter? well, because in large part, this car, or the previous generation of it, is the biggest selling electric vehicle in the world, and because nissan, tesla and other big car companies believe that this or something like it really is the future, and that in ten to 15 years, most of us will be driving some sort of electric vehicle. we're nowjust going to check out some of the high—tech features of this new leaf, one of which is that it can park for you, parallel or bay parking. ok, so now, it's going to go forward. you can see i have no hands on the wheel. beeping it's very strange having a car drive for you. ok, there we are. and we're finished. it's certainly a better looking car than the previous model, which was rather bug eyed and a lot of people thought was an acquired taste. the main difference between this and th

we report from tokyo and beijing in a moment but first, here's our correspondent yogita limaye in seoul. "it was a perfect success," the newsreader declared, as she announced north korea was close to achieving its nuclear goals. the country says it has detonated a hydrogen bomb small enough to be fitted to an intercontinental missile. this is kimjong—un inspecting what north korea claims is such a device. if true, it would mean that pyongyang is now capable of launching a nuclear attack on cities in the united states. this unprecedented threat prompted president trump to say... any threat to the united states or its territories, including guam, or our allies, will be met with a massive military response, a response both effective and overwhelming. it is a strong message to south korea's president who, for months, has said talking to north korea was a solution. today, he expressed outrage and disappointment. translation: north korea has made an absurd tactical mistake by committing a series of provocations such as launching icbm missiles and conducting a nuclear test, which has heighte

jason kenny has told the bbc that he plans to compete at tokyo to compete at tokyo 2020, having secretly decided to retire, but he has reversed that decision. good evening, it was another important night in the champions league with three british clubs in action. after a draw in their opening match, liverpool travelled over 2,000 miles in search of three points against spartak moscow, and despite most of the pressure it wasn't to be again. tim hague watched the frustrating 1—1 draw. win ordie? it win or die? it hasn't got that serious was barred to moscow or liverpool yet clearly but victory in russia would give jurgen liverpool yet clearly but victory in russia would givejurgen klopp‘s side a solid start to the champions league campaign. while they had all the openings, they went behind, this didn't look good for loris karius. yet liverpool held their heads high and soon equalised. i2, sadio mane to philippe coutinho as the prized asset proved why once more. and the chances kept coming from liverpool. they should have been ahead but could have been behind here. loris karius position

stocks leading the drop in tokyo. one analyst has pointed out japanese stocks tend to shrug off missile and nuclear tests, and expects to see it today barring further developments. another analyst seeing selling could be contained, small cap stocks looking resilient with less exposure to overseas business. let's look at what is dragging on the kospi, real estate plunging 2.5%, i.t. over 1%, a significant drop for most korean today, including airline players exposed to visitors wanting to come to south korea. a check on korean auto stocks after their august sales fell. 6%, so aotors fell drop for korean automakers today as well. far it ising like so very much risk off in the asian session this morning. betty: it seems that way. red behind sophie. let's get first word news now. >> south korea says the rising geopolitical risks created by the north's latest nuclear test could have a long-term impact on the economy. keepinance minister will an eye on the markets for the foreseeable future and will take measures to stabili

cheers accompanied them all the way as they proceeded on their drive through tokyo. that is all from us this month. i hope you willjoin us next month back here at the british library. we'll have five extraordinary accounts of hiss true through the eyes of people who were there. for now, from me and the rest of the team at witness, goodbye. hello. most of us enjoyed some picture perfect weather to start the weekend on saturday. these are the pictures to prove it. broken cloud, lot of sunshine, pleasantly warm in the sunshine. there were just one or two sharp showers in parts of east anglia, the vast majority were dry. but if this was saturday's weather, this is sunday's weather, quite a change. cloudier for many, wetter for some. and as we go on through into the first part of sunday you can see where the rain has arrived. across northern ireland into western scotland, wales and much of south—west england, and it's notjust wet, it is windy too with some gales through the irish sea. some of the rain during the first part of the day will be on the heavy side as well, s

this is being called by japan, wingfield—hayes in tokyo. this is being called byjapan, the latest missile launch, as an intolerable provocative act. yeah, that is the chief cabinet secretary who came out shortly after the missile flew over northern japan this morning, pretty much what you would expect, the same as what they said last month when north korea fired a similar missile ina similar north korea fired a similar missile in a similar trajectory. the difference between this and last month's missile appears to be how high it flew and how far it flew. it looks like it flew to an altitude of 770 kilometres and a total length of its flight of around 3700 kilometres, considerably further than the missile that was fired last month. and it is what we expected to see. both the us and allies injapan and south korea have been watching for the launch, expecting the launch. it was first expected on saturday the ninth of september. that didn't happen. they have been watching the setup of the missile from satellites. this wasn't an unexpected launch
