Italy Bridge: Rescuers Search For Survivors

Grief and anger at Italy bridge collapse

Heavy-lifting equipment has been brought in by rescue workers in Italy as they try to free those trapped under the rubble of a collapsed motorway bridge.

Also in the programme: Archaeologists using hot weather to identify previously undiscovered sites; and the 20th anniversary of the Omagh bombing in Northern Ireland, which was the worst single atrocity in the long Northern Ireland conflict -- killing twenty-nine people and two unborn children.
