00:00Hi I'm Sophie May-Land-May-Lyn and here are today's headlines. It looks like it's
00:06coming home or hopefully it will be because after last night's win over
00:12Netherlands England are through to the Euros finals. There's not like

00:23scored in the 89th minute in the 59th second. Yes England are actually through
00:30to the Euro final this Sunday where they take on Spain. Whilst it was still a
00:37little bit wet yesterday at the Great Yorkshire Show there was no stopping
00:43people celebrating the best of food, farming and people here in Yorkshire.
00:49We've got the best photos which include visits from politicians and the
00:53Archbishop of York. We also look at an incredible grade 2 listed property that

01:27greatest ever scholars thanks to his mother who gave her son his first
