  • This BBC podcast is supported by ads outside the UK.

  • It's Sunday.

  • It's newscast.

  • We're recording this at 11 o'clock when we have just had an update from the British Transport Police after a terrible attack.

  • on the 625 Doncaster to London Kings Cross.

  • British Transport Police declared a major incident yesterday and counter-terrorism policing were initially supporting our investigation however at this stage there is nothing to suggest that this is a terrorist incident.

  • This is a British Transport Police investigation and we continue to work to establish at pace the full circumstances and the motivations that have led to this incident.

  • At this early stage it would not be appropriate to speculate on the cause of this incident.

  • Obviously I can't even begin to think what it must have been like for the people on that train and immediately the news started to come through.

  • you know, we had some eyewitness accounts of just how awful it was,

  • the politician saying how horrific,

  • but what a lot of people were trying to fathom was the motive and what happened here,

  • and I think the critical bits we heard from that press conference were this really,

  • firstly that the police saying that nothing supports the fact that this is a terrorist incident,

  • really, really key, and the other thing is the two people they've got in custody,

  • a 32 year old black British national and a 35 year old British national of Caribbean descent,

  • both born in the UK, the police clearly very keen to get that in.

  • information out.

  • So on today's newscast we will hear all the information that we have about that attack on the Doncaster to London train.

  • We'll hear from eyewitnesses, the police and the politicians.
