Broadcast overview
An AI-generated overview based on this broadcast's transcript.
Police searching for three-year-old Noah Woods, who vanished after a playground visit, found a child's body in a Suffolk lake; formal identification has not yet taken place and officers said his family had been informed. The programme also reported that Earl Spencer's upcoming memoir alleges King Charles told him Diana would be forgotten soon after her death, a claim Buckingham Palace strongly rejected.
In Oxfordshire, the village of Piddington voted by 285 to 26 to leave the United Kingdom in a symbolic referendum against plans to house 1,256 male asylum seekers at MOD Bicester; the Prime Minister and a cabinet minister responded, expressing understanding of local concerns while highlighting efforts to reduce small boat crossings. Separate official data showed inflation rose to 3.1% in the year to August, its highest in five months, with petrol and diesel prices soaring.
Later segments discussed the possibility of more local referendums, and renewed attention on the Chagos Islands ahead of Andy Burnham's meeting with Donald Trump, with a new nominee to an international court suggesting the deal could be revived. The programme also reported that Selfridges had partnered with the charity Care for Calais to run training schemes for asylum seekers, though Selfridges said the initiative was a previous team member-led effort and there is no current activity.
