During's today episode of the hit ITV programme on July 22, presenters Kate Garraway and Ed Balls updated viewers with the latest news stories from across the UK and the rest of the world.
Weather presenter Laura Tobin was also in the studio to deliver regular updates while Jonathan Swain presented the rest of the day's news.

Another chimed in: "Why is Michael Gove on GMB this morning? Defo switching over."

Best strategy for SNP would driving down waiting lists and reviving public services
The First Minister says the precedent exists and Westminster would be obliged to accede to the SNP's demands. The problem with Swinney's announcement in the Record is that it again focuses on process. About half of the population backs independence and the SNP is the main political party supporting this policy. So it is only right that the SNP produces a plan for how it intends to deliver an objective shared by many Scots. Recent years have seen the SNP lose credibility among some supporters on this front. Nicola Sturgeon promised IndyRef2 on several occasions but a referendum never materialised. She even tried to introduce a referendum over the heads of Westminster but was thwarted in the courts. John Swinney's intervention clarifying what he sees as the mechanism for another IndyRef is therefore understandable. He says an outright SNP majority, as was achieved in 2011, should be the trigger for a referendum. The First Minister says the precedent exists and Westminster would be obliged to accede to the SNP's demands. The problem with Swinney's announcement in the Record is that it again focuses on process. Talking of the requirement for an SNP majority is bold but it overlooks the reasons for his party's poor poll rating compared with the Sturgeon era. Public support for independence will only increase if voters are satisfied with the performance of the Scottish Government. But on the NHS, schools and local government, a chunk of the public sees the SNP as presiding over failure and stagnation. The best independence strategy for the SNP would be to drive down waiting lists and lead a revival in public services. No opinion poll in recent years has shown the SNP on course for an overall majority at Holyrood. They have to sort out their record in government before voters will give them a hearing on independence. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Vapes an escape A study shows teenage vapers and smokers have higher rates of depression and anxiety than other youngsters. It is not clear if using addictive substances causes poor mental health or it's what young people turn to when they feel they need something to help. But the extensive study shows a clear association with vaping and smoking and mental health issues. The authors have concluded that offering young people support to deal with depression and anxiety is crucial. When we see teens vaping and smoking, it may not be rebellion but a symptom io someone struggling to cope. It is vital young people get the support they need so they don't need to turn to any form of addiction to deal with the challenges of life.

Beloved ITV detective show slapped with 'trigger warning' for crime scenes in 'woke' move
ITV 's Inspector Morse has been slapped with a 'trigger warning' in a move that has been branded ' woke '. The popular series now features a pre-warning for crime scenes throughout the show, which seems to have caused a stir with people online. The streaming giant also advises there are 'satanic images' in one episode of the drama. It then has a parental lock on the episode, titled Day of the Devil. Inspector Morse first aired from 1987 to 2000, with a total of eight series. Other episodes also feature a warning over crime and violence. The popular series now features a pre-warning for crime scenes throughout the show, which seems to have caused a stir with people online Speaking about the update, Senior MP Sir Alec Shelbrooke slammed: 'This is another example of soft-touch Britain seeping into everything. 'We're just going to be laughed at as a country if things like this continue, because nobody's prepared for the real world where there are no.' Daily Mail has contacted ITV for comment. In the past, it has said about general alerts: 'Programming that contains politically sensitive or distressing themes, content, or language has carried appropriate warnings since our launch.' Just a few weeks ago, Netflix bosses axed an iconic moment from Pride and Prejudice to avoid 'objectifying men'. The unforgettable scene of Mr Darcy - played by Colin Firth - emerging from a lake was all the rage in 1995. But show bosses have confirmed it will not resurface in the forthcoming version of the rom-com. According to reports, many fans will be disappointed as the famous BBC scene is said to have 'got millions of women hot under the collar'. A source told The Sun: 'It is also credited for sparking subsequent moments of male objectification on screen - likes Aidan Turner's famous topless scything scene in Poldark.' It's claimed that Netflix bosses 'don't want a repeat'. The saucy scene soon became one of the most favourite TV scenes, however it didn't actually feature in Jane Austen's original 1813 story. Arguably the most iconic wet shirt ever worn sold at auction for £25,000 - double its estimated sale price.

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOVE Island star Harry Cooksley can be seen kissing Shakira Khan's neck and goes in for a snog in an intimate snuggling moment between the pair, after they rekindled their romance. This year's edition of the ITV2 dating show has seen the three Islanders involved in a dramatic love triangle. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 5 Love Island star Harry Cooksley can be seen kissing Shakira Khan's neck Credit: ITV 5 The couple enjoy an intimate moment away from the other Islanders Credit: ITV 5 Harry snuggles into Shakira Credit: ITV In tonight's episode, after choosing to sleep outside, Harry returns to the villa and sits down with Shakira to discuss where they stand. They share their strong feelings for one another and, later on in the episode, Harry chooses to recouple with Shakira, leaving Helena and Blu to coupe up. Just a short time later, Harry and Shakira have been seen getting very close in a preview clip played on Love Island's After Sun. Maya played the clip to the panellist and audience members, all of which audibly gasped as they watched Harry snuggle into Shakira and kiss her neck. The 22-year-old could be seen sat on Harry's lap, as the footballer cradled her in the girls' dressing room. She told him they'd be taking "baby steps" as he nestled into her neck after getting their relationship back on track. Eyeing up her lips, Harry leans in to snog Shakira, but she quickly turns away, allowing him to kiss her cheek instead. Earlier in the episode, Harry tells her: 'I have really tried with her [Helena], but we [Shakira and I] had like a week and it was, for me, the feelings were obviously way stronger and still are. "I'm sorry I never like tried again. I really thought the door was just, like, slammed.' Harry and Helena break down in tears as they cut final romantic ties in emotional scenes Shakira responds: 'Do you want some home truths… it's obviously the way you go about it and the steps you take in between to come to these conclusions obviously hurt people along the way. "It's all well and good you saying 'hold my hands up guys, sorry' but you still hurt people. And it's a pattern.' Harry then makes his intentions clear, saying: 'Look, I'm either leaving here alone or with you.' Both Harry and Helena broke down in tears multiple times in Sunday night's episode, as they cut their final romantic ties in emotional scenes. The duo have continued to deal with the fallout from The Grafties on the long-running ITV2 show. Helena told Harry: "You're so selfish, you've literally broken my heart Harry. Like I cannot be your friend in here. "And I will not be your friend on the outside, I can f****** promise you that. I don't want any association with you ever again." When he suggested that the duo may eventually become friends on the outside, she shut him down once again. "I don't think we will be friends Harry. You don't possess any morals or values that I look for when I'm becoming friends with people. "My friends don't treat me like that. I don't think you have an ounce of respect for me, you've literally ruined everything for me in here." She added: "I literally don't want anything to do with you Harry." That's when the footballers couldn't help but tear up after listening to her resounding words of rejection. Helena added: "I feel like I had something genuine in here and it's like obviously it wasn't. "I just feel so stupid because you clearly haven't felt the same as I felt about you this whole time." She couldn't help but wrap her arms around his neck in a gesture of pity as she caressed his face one more time. As they let go she exclaimed: "It's where the journey ends my darling!" 5 The pair were seen gazing at each other in a sneak preview Credit: ITV
