has refused to be drawn on the crisis...
- Oh, hello.
- Do come in.
- Mum, Mrs. Kemp, Mr. Kemp.
- Pleased to meet you.
- How do you do?
- How do you do?

- Oh, hello.
- How do you do?

BBC news at eight o'clock.
The Soviet Union has protested strongly
to the United States
about dangerous provocations
by American ships in the Gulf of Oman.
This follows an incident where damage
was caused to the Soviet cruiser Kirov
when she was in collision
with the US destroyer Callaghan.
It's in a bit of a state
but it's got possibilities.
I'd have that door stripped down,
all this paper off and the walls white.
There's about 16 layers on here.
My mother and dad'll help us,
I'm sure they will.
My dad'll give us a hand as well.
He'll be glad of summat to do.
What you laughing at?
His face when my mother said
we could borrow his redundancy money.
Don't.
He were fancying a trip to Bermuda on it.
- Looks like being Blackpool again.
- Oh, dear.
I like the gardens. It's lovely for children
to have somewhere to play.
I wonder if they'll let me
build an aviary down there.
Oh, you and your birds.
Makes you feel funny, though, don't it?
What do you mean?
Us owning a home,
being married, having children.
- Enough to put years on you, in't it?
- Don't be silly.
It'll be lovely.
I just know it will.
- Here you are, love.
- Ta.
American and Israeli
search and rescue vessels
today came across debris and oil slicks
from the missing submarine.
It's being said in Washington
that the Los Angeles was on a routine
reconnaissance mission off Iran
when she sank last Tuesday
with a loss of all hands.
After paying tribute
to her 127 officers and men,
the President said he held the Soviet
Union responsible for their deaths
and for the vessel's disappearance.
The unprovoked attack
on our submarine and the move into Iran
are the actions
of a reckless and warlike power.
I have to warn the Soviets
in the clearest possible terms
that they risk taking us to the brink
of an armed confrontation
with incalculable consequences
for all mankind.
Britain has
emergency plans for war.
If central government should ever fail,
power can be transferred instead
to a system of local officials
dispersed across the country.
In an urban district like Sheffield,
there is already
a designated wartime controller.
He's the city's peacetime chief executive.
If it should suddenly become necessary,
he can be given
full powers of internal government.
When, or if, this happens
depends on the crisis itself.
