TONIGHT ` SHE WAS HERE. WE'VE GOT THE SELFIES TO PROVE IT. EUROPE'S NEW IRON LADY MEETS JOHN KEY AND OUR NATIONAL BIRD. STRUTTING THEIR STUFF ` THE LATEST FASHION STATEMENTS FROM A SCHOOL THAT'S PRODUCED RUNWAY HITS. # IT'S LOUDER THAN WORDS, THIS THING THAT WE DO. # AND WHAT PINK FLOYD'S GOT TO BE LOUD AND PROUD ABOUT NOW. DUE TO THE LIVE NATURE OF TONIGHT, WE APOLOGISE FOR THE LACK OF CAPTIONS FOR SOME ITEMS. THERE'S BEEN A PARTING GIFT FROM EUROPE'S MOST INFLUENTIAL LEADER AS SHE LEAVES NZ. GERMAN CHANCELLOR ANGELA MERKEL IS VOWING TO BACK OUR PUSH FOR A FREE-TRADE AGREEMENT WITH THE EUROPEAN UNION. AFTER A WHIRLWIND VISIT, SHE'S NOW HEADING TO AUSTRALIA FOR THE G20 SUMMIT. MONIQUE FISCHER HAS MORE. NOT EVEN THE WORLD'S MOST POWERFUL WOMAN CAN RESIST A SELFIE. ANGELA MERKEL WRAPPING UP HER FINAL PUBLIC EVENT AT THE AUCKLAND ART GALLERY TONIGHT AND PAYING TRIBUTE TO NZ AFTER A WHISTLE-STOP ONE DAY TRIP BEFORE THE G20 SUMMIT IN BRISBANE. YOU HAVE A VERY GOOD, INNOVATIVE CLIMATE. YOU HAVE A LOT OF TRADING PARTNERS IN ASIA. SO ALL OF THAT MAKES YOU A GREAT ATTRACTIVENESS OF NZ. PRIME MINISTER JOHN KEY PLAYED HOST TO THE FIRST GERMAN CHANCELLOR TO VISIT IN 17 YEARS. BUT IT WASN'T JUST ABOUT A PHOTO OP WITH THIS LITTLE GUY. A TRADITIONAL WELCOME, PAYING RESPECTS TO THE WAR DEAD, AND A UNIVERSITY ADDRESS WERE ALL PART OF WHAT BOTH COUNTRIES SAY HIGHLIGHTS A DESIRE FOR A CLOSER RELATIONSHIP IN THE FUTURE. THERE IS SCOPE OF A LOT MORE BUSINESS ENGAGEMENT BUILDING ON THIS, AND I TALKED TO THE CHANCELLOR TODAY ABOUT OUR ASPIRATIONS FOR A FREE-TRADE AGREEMENT WITH THE EU. I THINK THAT WE SHOULD ALSO COME OUT IN FAVOUR OF A FREE-TRADE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE EU AND NZ. THE TWO LEADERS ALSO SHARED SIMILAR IDEAS ON THE CONFLICT WITH ISLAMIC STATE MILITANTS ` A VIEW ECHOED BY ANOTHER VISITING LEADER WITH RECENT EXPERIENCE OF A TERROR ATTACK. IN TODAY'S WORLD, GEOGRAPHIC DISTANCE IS NO GUARANTEE OR SAFETY OR SECURITY, AND CANADA AND NZ ARE THUS WORKING TOGETHER TO COMBAT THE DANGERS POSED BY RADICAL INDIVIDUALS. STEPHEN HARPER ALSO TREATED TO A SIMILAR MEET AND GREET AND ALSO HOLDING TALKS WITH THE PRIME MINISTER. WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT ` EXTENDING THE DURATION OF STAYS AND THE WORKING HOLIDAY PROGRAMME ` IS SOMETHING THAT BOTH OF OUR YOUNG PEOPLE WILL REALLY EMBRACE. JOHN KEY HOPING THOSE DISCUSSIONS WILL GROW TIES WITH THE TWO BIG COUNTRIES, BUT JUST HOW MUCH OF AN IMPRINT NZ HAS LEFT ON THESE LEADERS REMAINS TO BE SEEN. MONIQUE FISCHER, ONE NEWS. AND THERE'S BEEN SOME PUPPY LOVE FOR THE LEADERS' WIVES. BRONAGH KEY ESCORTED CANADA'S FIRST LADY TO SEE THE GUIDE DOGS AT THE BLIND FOUNDATION IN AUCKLAND. LAUREEN HARPER JOKED SHE'D LIKE TO SNEAK ONE HOME IN HER PURSE. SEE, I HAVE A LAKE, AND YOU COULD CHASE THE GEESE AWAY. (LAUGHS) YES. WE CAN ARRANGE THAT, EH? YEAH. A GOOSE CHASER. MRS KEY, WHO IS A BLIND FOUNDATION AMBASSADOR, ORGANISED THE VISIT, SAYING MRS HARPER'S INTEREST IN ANIMAL WELFARE MADE IT THE PERFECT OPPORTUNITY. THE WELFARE OF THE WORLD'S MOST POWERFUL POLITICIANS IS THE FOCUS FOR AUSTRALIA'S SECURITY FORCES ON THE EVE OF THE G20 SUMMIT. ALREADY ONE MAN'S BEEN ARRESTED FOR MAKING ONLINE THREATS AGAINST US PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA. OUR CORRESPONDENT STEVE MARSHALL IS IN BRISBANE. TONY ABBOTT AND BRITISH PRIME MINISTER DAVID CAMERON ARE BUILDING BRIDGES DURING A SYDNEY STROLL BEFORE GETTING DOWN TO BUSINESS IN BRISBANE. IT IS AS WARM, AS INTIMATE AND AS IMPORTANT AS ANY RELATIONSHIP ON THIS EARTH, SO, DAVID, LOVELY TO BE WITH YOU TODAY. THE TWO LEADERS BLAME RUSSIAN-BACKED SEPARATISTS FOR SHOOTING DOWN MH17. AND ON THE DAY PRESIDENT VLADIMIR PUTIN ARRIVES HERE, THIS FROM QUEENSLAND'S MAJOR NEWSPAPER, DEMANDING THE TOUGH RUSSIAN ACCEPTS RESPONSIBILITY. TENSIONS WERE FURTHER HEIGHTENED BY RUSSIAN WAR SHIPS CRUISING INTERNATIONAL WATERS OFF BRISBANE UNDER THE WATCHFUL EYE OF THE AUSTRALIAN NAVY. WE READ THAT IT'S PART OF PUTIN'S EFFORT TO ENSURE THAT RUSSIA IS SEEN AS A GREAT POWER. THEY'RE NOT THE ONLY WAVES ROCKING THE LEADERS' SUMMIT. AUSTRALIA HAD HOPED GLOBAL ECONOMIC GROWTH WOULD BE THE SOLE FOCUS OF THIS SUMMIT, BUT THE UNITED STATES AND CHINA'S SURPRISE AGREEMENT TO REDUCE AND CAP THEIR EMISSIONS HAS CERTAINLY HIGHLIGHTED THE ABBOTT GOVERNMENT'S CONSERVATIVE APPROACH TO THE ISSUE. BUT AUSTRALIA'S ADAMANT CLIMATE CHANGE WON'T CLIP ITS ECONOMIC AGENDA. IT WON'T BE AN ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM. IT'LL BE DISCUSSED, BUT IT'S NOT GOING TO DOMINATE CONVERSATION. WITH PRIME MINISTER CAMERON ALSO WANTING TO TALK EBOLA, G20 DISCUSSIONS WILL CERTAINLY BE WIDENED. VARIOUS ACTION GROUPS ARE ALSO VOICING THEIR CONCERNS. IT APPEARS BRISBANE'S G20 WILL BE MORE THAN JUST A TALK FEST AIMED AT BREATHING MORE LIFE INTO THE GLOBAL ECONOMY. STEVE MARSHALL, ONE NEWS, BRISBANE. AND PRESIDENT OBAMA'S STOPPED IN BURMA, ALSO KNOWN AS MYANMAR, ON HIS WAY TO THE G20 SUMMIT, GIVING HIS BACKING TO ITS HIGH-PROFILE OPPOSITION LEADER. HE'S CRITICISED A PROVISION IN THE CONSTITUTION WHICH PREVENTS AUNG SAN SUU KYI FROM RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT NEXT YEAR BECAUSE HER TWO SONS ARE FOREIGN NATIONALS. THE PRESIDENT DIDN'T NAME SUU KYI, BUT SAYS THE LAW MAKES NO SENSE. THERE'VE BEEN NEW TAUNTS AIMED AT PRESIDENT OBAMA AND AMERICAN-LED AIR STRIKES AGAINST THE ISLAMIC STATE. THEY'RE BELIEVED TO HAVE COME FROM THE MILITANTS' LEADER, WHO SAYS THE CAMPAIGN IS FAILING AND CALLS FOR 'VOLCANOES OF JIHAD'. THIS FROM ABC'S MARTHA RADDATZ. (SPEAKS ARABIC) HE IS ONE OF THE MOST WANTED MEN IN THE WORLD, SLAUGHTERING OR TORTURING ANYONE WHO TRIES TO STOP HIM, FEARLESSLY STANDING BEHIND THAT PULPIT IN JULY AND TODAY RELEASING TAUNTING AUDIO,... MAN SPEAKS ARABIC ...THAT, WHILE NOT YET VERIFIED, CLAIMING THAT MONTHS OF US AIR STRIKES AGAINST ISIS... THE AUDIO ALSO MAKES DIRECT REFERENCE TO PRESIDENT OBAMA'S ANNOUNCEMENT LAST WEEK THAT HE IS DOUBLING THE NUMBER OF TROOPS IN IRAQ TO ABOUT 3000. THE TIMING SEEMS TO REFUTE CLAIMS COMING FROM IRAQI MEDIA THAT BAGHDADI WAS KILLED OR WOUNDED IN AN AIR STRIKE AROUND THE SAME TIME. IT WAS SOMETHING THE US MILITARY WAS UNABLE TO CONFIRM OR DENY AT THE TIME, WHICH MAY BE WHY THE AUDIO WAS RELEASED TODAY. BAGHDADI WOULD DO THIS, BECAUSE HE WANTS TO PROVE THAT WE'RE INEFFECTIVE, IF NOT IMPOTENT; OUR INTELLIGENCE IS FLAWED; AND OUR ABILITY TO ACCURATELY TARGET THEM IS NOT EFFECTIVE IN THE BATTLE SPACE. THERE ARE TROUBLING REPORTS ABOUT MEETING BETWEEN AL QAEDA GROUPS AND ISIS IN SYRIA AND IRAQ. BUT US OFFICIALS TELL ME THAT WHILE MEETINGS MAY HAVE HAPPENED ON A LOCAL LEVEL, THEY DO NOT BELIEVE THAT THE GROUPS ARE JOINING UP FOR ANY LARGER STRATEGIC GOAL. IF THEY DID, OF COURSE, THEIR POWER AND REACH WOULD CERTAINLY BE INCREASED. BAGHDADI ALSO CONGRATULATES SUPPORTERS FOR STARTING A JIHAD AGAINST WHAT HE CALLS THE DICTATORS OF EGYPT. A HUGE METHAMPHETAMINE BUST HAS NETTED DRUGS, CASH, AND OTHER ASSETS TOTALLING MORE THAN $10M. THREE SUSPECTS, TWO NZERS AND A CHINESE CITIZEN, HAVE BEEN ARRESTED, BUT POLICE ARE SEEKING CHI WO LAU (41) WHO HAS CONNECTIONS IN AUCKLAND. POLICE SAY HE DRIVES A BLACK TOYOTA OR A SILVER LEXUS. HOW MUCH WE PAY FOR MILK IS BACK UNDER SCRUTINY. SUPERMARKET CHAINS ARE DISPUTING A REPORT SHOWING THE COST HAS GONE UP, BUT A TOP CHILDREN'S DOCTOR WANTS THE GOVERNMENT TO STEP IN TO LOWER THE PRICE. ANDREW MORRISON HAS MORE. IT'S A BASIC NECESSITY, BUT SOME SAY MILK HAS BECOME A LUXURY ITEM. SOMETIMES I JUST MISS IT OUT BECAUSE IT'S TOO EXPENSIVE TO BUY. IT'S MORE EXPENSIVE THAN A BOTTLE OF COKE, SO THAT'S PRETTY BAD. WE CAN'T AFFORD TO HAVE SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS MILK, AND, YEAH, DAD'S GONNA TO HAVE MISS OUT AGAIN. THE LATEST STATISTICS NZ FOOD-PRICE INDEX SHOWS THE PRICE OF FRESH MILK ROSE BY 3% LAST MONTH, AND A PAEDIATRICIAN AT AUCKLAND'S STARSHIP HOSPITAL SAYS NZ CHILDREN IN POVERTY ARE PAYING THE PRICE. IT'S BECOME INACCESSIBLE, AND THAT MEANS THAT CHILDREN ARE BEING UNDERNOURISHED, AND REALLY THEIR HEALTH AND WELLBEING WILL BE SUFFERING. BUT BOTH OF NZ'S BIGGEST SUPERMARKET CHAINS DENY THAT. COUNTDOWN SAYS ITS PRICES HAVEN'T CHANGED IN 6 MONTHS, AND FOODSTUFFS, THE OWNER OF NEW WORLD AND PAK'N SAVE, SAYS PRICES WILL FALL SHORTLY. IN A STATEMENT, FONTERRA SAYS IT STRIVES TO MAKE DAIRY PRICES ACCESSIBLE TO KIWIS. IT SAYS WHILE IT DOESN'T SET THE RETAIL VALUE OF MILK PRICES, IT DOES EXPECT IT TO BECOME CHEAPER OVER TIME BECAUSE INTERNATIONAL COMMODITY PRICES HAVE COME DOWN. IN THE MEANTIME, CONSUMER NZ HAS THIS ADVICE. LOOK OUT FOR THE HOUSE BRANDS. IT'S THE SAME COW, THE SAME MILK AS THE MORE HEAVILY MARKETED AND MORE EXPENSIVE MILKS. FOR SOME A PRICE DROP CAN'T COME SOON ENOUGH. WITH HER ABOUT TO SWITCH OVER ON TO MILK AND ME BEING A BIG FAN OF MILK ` I DRINK STRAIGHT FROM THE CONTAINER EVERYDAY FOR THE LAST 37 YEARS ` YEAH, IT'S GONNA TO BE A MASSIVE DIFFERENCE IF WE CAN'T AFFORD TO HAVE WHAT WE NEED IN THE FRIDGE. FOODSTUFFS SAYS PRICES HAVE ALREADY DROPPED IN THE SOUTH ISLAND, AND CHEAPER MILK IS ON ITS WAY IN THE NORTH. ANDREW MORRISON, ONE NEWS. WE'RE ALREADY SEEING GROUND-BREAKING IMAGES FROM THE PROBE THAT'S LANDED ON A COMET IN A FIRST FOR SPACE EXPLORATION. BUT THERE'S SOME CONCERN ABOUT WHERE THE CRAFT'S ANCHORED ` IN THE SHADOW OF A CLIFF. THIS FROM THE BBC'S DAVID SHUKMAN. THE FIRST PICTURES EVER TAKEN FROM THE SURFACE OF A COMET. IN THE FOREGROUND, ONE OF THE FEET OF THE LANDER VERY CLOSE TO WHAT LOOKS LIKE A CLIFF. AND REMEMBER THAT THIS DARK AND BIZARRE TERRAIN IS 300 MILLION MILES AWAY. COMPUTER SIMULATIONS SHOW HOW THE LANDER IS TAKING THE PICTURES OF A VERY ALIEN WORLD. BUT THE LANDING ITSELF WAS NOT THIS EASY. AND THEN WE DID THIS HUGE JUMP, SOMETHING LIKE THIS. AT A BRIEFING THIS AFTERNOON, MISSION PLANNERS EXPLAIN HOW THE LANDER BOUNCED ACROSS THE SURFACE AND CAME DOWN AT AN AWKWARD ANGLE IN A TRICKY SPOT. IT'S NOT QUITE CLEAR WHERE WE ARE YET, BUT WE SEEM TO BE UP AGAINST THE EDGE OF A BOULDER OR A CLIFF IN A SHADOWED REGION. THE LANDER SEEMS TO BE PERHAPS ALMOST VERTICALLY ORIENTED, SO... ON ITS SIDE? ON ITS SIDE. FROM WHAT WE KNOW, THE LANDER DESCENDED AS PLANNED TO THE SURFACE OF THE COMET. IT OBVIOUSLY SETTLED, BECAUSE SIGNALS SENT BACK TO EARTH CONFIRM THAT. BUT FOR SOME REASON, THE HARPOONS MEANT TO HOLD THE SPACECRAFT DOWN DID NOT FIRE, AND THERE'S SO LITTLE GRAVITY, THE LANDER NEEDS TO BE ANCHORED. SO IT DRIFTED UP AND AWAY FROM ITS ORIGINAL LANDING ZONE INTO TERRAIN THAT SEEMS TO BE FAR MORE RISKY. HERE AT MISSION CONTROL, THEY FACE A REALLY AWKWARD CHOICE. THEY COULD TRY TO SPRING THE LANDER FREE FROM ITS TIGHT SPOT AND MOVE IT TO A BETTER PLACE ` BUT THAT WOULD RISK DAMAGING IT ` OR WORSE, JUST FLINGING IT OFF INTO DEEP SPACE. INSTRUMENTS THAT ARE MEANT TO GATHER SAMPLES COULD SEND THE LANDER FLYING OFF THE SURFACE AGAIN, BUT MOST OF THE OTHERS ARE SUCCESSFULLY GATHERING DATA. SCIENTISTS SAY THEY'RE LEARNING A LOT ALREADY. AND THE PROBE IS POSITIONED IN A DARKER CORNER OF THE COMET, MAKING IT SLIGHTLY HARDER TO CHARGE ITS SOLAR POWERED BATTERIES. IT'S THE FASHION COURSE THAT'S LAUNCHED THE CAREERS OF KATE SYLVESTER, REBECCA TAYLOR, AND, MOST RECENTLY, SEAN KELLY. THE MASSEY UNIVERSITY STUDENT (24) WON THE LATEST SEASON OF AMERICAN TV SHOW PROJECT RUNWAY JUST A YEAR AFTER GRADUATING. KRISTIN HALL CHECKS OUT WHAT THIS YEAR'S GRADUATES HAVE TO OFFER. FROM TRANSFORMER-STYLE BACKPACKS TO BUCKETS OF BLING, AND WHATEVER THIS IS, IT'S FAIR TO SAY THERE'S NO SHORTAGE OF CREATIVITY IN MASSEY UNIVERSITY'S FASHION DEPARTMENT. THESE HONOURS STUDENTS HAVE BEEN STUDYING FASHION DESIGN FOR FOUR YEARS, AND CHURNING OUT THEIR OWN COLLECTION IS THEIR FINAL PROJECT. THE LAST MONTH IS REALLY BUSY, BECAUSE THEY'RE TRYING TO SHOOT` YOU KNOW, DOING PHOTOGRAPHY SHOOTS, THEY'RE TRYING TO DO FILMS, CREATING WEBSITES, INSTAGRAM, YOU KNOW, ALL THOSE KINDS OF SOCIAL MEDIA ACTIVITIES THAT PROMOTE THEM AS A DESIGNER, AND THEY DO ALL THAT ON TOP OF THE COLLECTION, WHICH IS HUGE. IT WAS JUST LAST YEAR PROJECT RUNWAY WINNER SEAN KELLY WAS WALKING THIS VERY RUNWAY AFTER SHOWING HIS COLLECTION. THIS YEAR'S WINNERS DON'T NECESSARILY WANT TO MAKE IT TO NEW YORK, BUT THEY'VE STILL GOT SOME PRETTY BIG DREAMS. ANNABELLE FITZGERALD WON NOT JUST ONE BUT FIVE AWARDS FOR HER COLLECTION 'TRACE',... IT'S ALL ABOUT DESIGNING AND CUTTING THE FABRIC TO THE BODY AND HOW THE BODY MOVES. I'D LIKE TO, SOMEWHERE DOWN THE LINE, SET UP MY OWN LABEL. BUT WE'LL SEE WHERE THAT GOES. WHILE DANI LARIMER'S COLLECTION, INSPIRED BY RACIAL DIVERSITY, HAS EARNED HER AN INTERNSHIP WITH KATE SYLVESTER. HOPEFULLY ALL GOES WELL, AND NEVER KNOW WHAT MIGHT COME FROM THAT. THE STUDENTS HAVE TO PAY FOR THEIR OWN PIECES, SOME SPENDING THOUSANDS ON WOOL, WIRE, AND THE REST. VERY TIRED, VERY POOR. NO MONEY LEFT. IN MY CASE, PROBABLY IN A LOT OF DEBT. BUT THEY SAY IT'S ALL WORTH IT, AND IT'S HOPED MASSEY'S OWN CELEBRITY DESIGNER WILL RETURN TO INSPIRE THE NEXT LOT OF STUDENTS. I KEEP ASKING HIM TO DO THINGS FOR ME, BECAUSE WE'VE GOT SO MUCH PUBLICITY. 'SEAN, CAN YOU DO THIS? 'SEAN, CAN YOU DO THAT?' HE TOLD ME HE'S BEEN WATCHING ALL THE FOOTAGE THAT NZ TV HAVE BEEN DOING, AND HE'S REALLY PROUD. NOW WATCH OUT FOR WHO'LL BE APPLAUDED NEXT IN THE FASHION STAKES. KRISTIN HALL, ONE NEWS IT WASN'T PRETTY, BUT THE BREAKERS HAVE TONIGHT KEPT UP THEIR WINNING STREAK IN THE AUSTRALIAN NBL CHAMPIONSHIP. BACK IN AUCKLAND AFTER TWO BIG VICTORIES ACROSS THE TASMAN, THEY HAD A 10-POINT LEAD OVER THE BOTTOM-OF-THE-TABLE WOLLONGONG HAWKS BY HALFTIME. BUT THEN IT TURNED UGLY, AS THEY MISSED 12 STRAIGHT SHOTS AND SCORED JUST THREE POINTS IN THE THIRD QUARTER. VUKONA SWEEPING THROUGH THE KEY. CAN'T GET THERE. BREAKERS STRUGGLING A BIT TO PUT THE BALL IN THE HOLE AT THE MOMENT. BUT AMERICAN POINT GUARD CEDRIC JACKSON STEPPED IT UP IN THE FINAL QUARTER WITH 13 POINTS FOR A GAME-HIGH 22. THE BREAKERS WON 71-55 TO ADVANCE THEIR RECORD TO SEVEN WINS AND THREE LOSSES. THE LATEST ON PRISONER ESCAPER PHILLIP SMITH IS NEXT, AND WILL A FEW NIGHTS IN HERE SEE THE MURDERER WANTING TO COME HOME FROM BRAZIL? A BAD CASE OF VERTIGO FOR BONO ` WHAT HAPPENED ON HIS PRIVATE JET. RUNAWAY MURDERER PHILLIP SMITH'S BEEN SHIFTED TO A DIFFERENT JAIL. BUT THERE'S NO WORD YET ON WHEN HE'LL BE SENT BACK HERE. HE'S NOW IN ONE OF BRAZIL'S LARGEST PRISON COMPLEXES WHICH HAS A HISTORY OF GREAT ESCAPES. HELEN CASTLES HAS THE DETAILS. THE NOTORIOUS BANGU PRISON COMPLEX HOUSES BRAZIL'S WORST CRIMINALS ` DRUG TRAFFICKERS, SEX OFFENDERS, MURDERERS AND NOW PHILLIP SMITH. OVERCROWDING IS COMMON, THERE ARE PEST INFESTATIONS, THERE IS SEWAGE THAT DOESN'T WORK. IT'S OVER. DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME? RECAPTURED BY BRAZILIAN POLICE AT AN INTERNATIONAL HOSTEL IN RIO YESTERDAY MORNING, HE'S SEEN TWO BRAZILIAN PRISONS IN 24 HOURS, AND NOW HIS LAWYER'S SUGGESTING HE'D VOLUNTEER TO COME HOME. HE WOULD BE WELL PLACED TO SIMPLY CUT THE PROCESS SHORT AND COME HOME, SO HE CAN COME BACK TO A NICE NZ JAIL WHERE YOU CAN COMMIT FRAUD AND OBTAIN PASSPORTS. BANGU PRISON, SMITH'S NEW HOME, HAS A TOUGH REPUTATION, DRUG CARTELS OPENLY OPERATING WITHIN ITS WALLS. THE MAXIMUM SECURITY PRISON IS ALSO RENOWNED FOR ITS JAIL BREAKS. LAST YEAR 31 PRISONERS ESCAPED THROUGH CRAWLING THROUGH A SEWAGE SYSTEM, SO THEY SORT OF EMERGED ON A BIG HIGHWAY NEAR THE PRISON, COVERED IN SEWAGE. IN 2002, 105 PEOPLE ESCAPED ALSO THROUGH A TUNNEL. SMITH'S OWN ESCAPE PLOT MAY HAVE BEEN CARRIED OUT USING TAXPAYER MONEY. INLAND REVENUE CONFIRMED SMITH WAS PROSECUTED TWO YEARS AGO. BUT DESPITE EXTENSIVE EFFORTS TO TRACE THE MONEY THROUGH BANK ACCOUNTS, IT WAS NEVER RECOVERED. COURT DOCUMENTS FROM BRAZIL SUGGEST SMITH WILL BE DEPORTED. IT'S JUST A QUESTION OF WHEN. HELEN CASTLES, ONE NEWS. THE CREEPING LAVA FROM AN EXPLOSIVE VOLCANO IS LEAVING EVEN MORE OF A BLOT ON THE HAWAIIAN LANDSCAPE. YOU CAN SEE HOW THE STREAM OF MOLTEN ROCK HAS NOW BURNED ASPHALT AND DAMAGED PROPERTY NEAR A RUBBISH STATION. AUTHORITIES SAY IT'S NOT AN IMMEDIATE THREAT TO RESIDENTS, BUT THEY'RE MONITORING IT CLOSELY. MOUNT KILAUEA HAS BEEN ERUPTING CONTINUOUSLY FOR MORE THAN 31 YEARS, BUT THE LATEST LAVA FLOW BEGAN IN JUNE. THERE'S BEEN A MID-AIR SCARE INVOLVING THE FRONTMAN OF ONE OF THE WORLD'S BIGGEST BANDS. SINGER BONO WAS FLYING FROM DUBLIN TO GERMANY WHEN A CARGO HATCH BROKE OFF HIS PRIVATE JET. THE PLANE, MINUS A FEW BITS OF LUGGAGE, LANDED SAFELY, BUT THE LEAD SINGER OF ONE OF THE WORLD'S BIGGEST BANDS ADMITS TO SOME NERVOUS MOMENTS. THAT WAS A BIT SCARY, REALLY. UM, YEAH, WE WERE ABOUT 25 MINUTES FROM THE... FROM THE AIRPORT, AND THERE WAS A KIND OF BANG, AND WE THOUGHT WE'D HIT TURBULENCE. AVIATION EXPERTS SAY THE PLANE DIDN'T LOSE PRESSURE, SO WAS NOT IN ANY REAL DANGER OF CRASHING. ELSTREE STUDIOS HAVE BEEN DESCRIBED AS THE BRITISH HOLLYWOOD, SET IN THE UNGLAMOROUS SURROUNDINGS OF LEAFY SUBURBIA NEAR LONDON. THE STUDIOS ARE CELEBRATING A CENTURY OF PRODUCTION OF UN-BRITISH BLOCKBUSTERS LIKE STAR WARS AND THE DIRTY DOZEN. THE BBC'S LIZO MZIMBA HAS BEEN LOOKING AT ITS GLORIOUS HISTORY. IT MAY HAVE BEEN SET IN A GALAXY FAR FAR AWAY, BUT THESE NONDESCRIPT BUILDINGS IN ELSTREE IS WHERE IT AND MANY OTHER CLASSIC MOVIES WERE ACTUALLY MADE. NOT FAR AWAY ` A STONE'S THROW FROM THE BBC'S EASTENDERS ELSTREE SETS ON WHAT IS NOW A CAR PARK ` IS WHERE THE AREA'S FILM-MAKING STORY BEGAN. NEPTUNE STUDIOS PRODUCED SILENT BLACK-AND-WHITE FILMS, SETTING THE BALL ROLLING ON WHAT'S NOW BEEN A CENTURY OF FILM-MAKING FROM DIFFERENT STUDIOS CLUSTERED THERE. DRAMATIC MUSIC IN A NEW DOCUMENTARY, MANY OF HOLLYWOOD'S BIGGEST NAMES HAVE RECALLED THEIR EXPERIENCES. EVERYTHING WAS SO CONVENIENT ON THE ELSTREE LOT. AND THE THING ABOUT MY FIRST EXPERIENCE COMING TO ENGLAND TO MAKE MY FIRST MOVIE ABROAD, WAS THE CRAFTSMEN THERE WERE EXCEPTIONAL. I HAD NEVER EXPERIENCED THAT KIND OF CRAFT. A FEW OF THE ORIGINAL SOUND STAGES STILL EXIST. THIS WOULD ONCE HAVE BEEN HOME TO THE MILLENNIUM FALCON IN STAR WARS. WHILE SOME BUILDINGS HAVE BEEN COMPLETELY DEMOLISHED, STAGE FIVE WAS WHERE QUEEN SHOT THEIR CLASSIC BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY VIDEO. AND SOME AREAS HAVE BEEN REDEVELOPED. THIS STAGE SITS ON TOP OF WHERE THE BACKLOT WAS, HOME TO CLASSIC '60S TV SERIALS INCLUDING THE SAINT. WITHOUT ELSTREE THE BRITISH FILM INDUSTRY WOULD BE A LOT SMALLER THAN IT CURRENTLY IS, BECAUSE ELSTREE HAS BEEN A HOME TO CRAFTSPEOPLE AND TALENT FOR OVER A HUNDRED YEARS AND IT'S REALLY NURTURED THAT SIDE OF THE INDUSTRY WHICH IS WHY PEOPLE COME TO US TO MAKE THEIR FILM. AND NOT JUST FILM. THROUGH TV, TOO, THE STUDIOS HERE CONTINUE TO ENTERTAIN MILLIONS. A LOOK AT YOUR WEEKEND WEATHER'S NEXT, AND IT'S ONLY TAKEN TWO DECADES ` WHAT PINK FLOYD'S GOT TO CELEBRATE.
