Tonight at Ten, inside one of Europe's biggest jails,

:00:00.:00:07.

Wandsworth in south London, to see the challenge

:00:08.:00:09.

There's overcrowding, violence, drugs, and corruption -

:00:10.:00:17.

leaving both staff and inmates fearing for their own

:00:18.:00:19.

They're so short-staffed in here, this place can't be run.

:00:20.:00:25.

Staffing levels are often cited as a major cause

:00:26.:00:34.

of the prison's problems, taking a heavy toll

:00:35.:00:36.

I think I'm probably the most stressed that I've been

:00:37.:00:44.

We'll have an exclusive report, on the day the Government unveiled

:00:45.:00:48.

a radical reform programme for prisons in England and Wales

:00:49.:00:51.

Those reforms were featured, along with 20 other bills,

:00:52.:01:00.

as the Government outlined its plans for the year ahead.

:01:01.:01:05.

The police commander on the day of the Hillsborough football

:01:06.:01:07.

disaster has said nothing since the inquests ended in April -

:01:08.:01:10.

but we caught up with him in San Francisco.

:01:11.:01:16.

When I was at the Coroner's Court, I gave a message and I had nothing

:01:17.:01:21.

more to say. Excuse me. After a long-running dispute,

:01:22.:01:23.

agreement is reached with junior doctors' leaders in England

:01:24.:01:25.

on a new contract. Ball for Coke again,

with the promise he will There were 21 bills in today's

Queen's Speech setting out the Government's plans

:01:46.:02:11.

for the year ahead. Among them was a measure to reform

:02:12.:02:13.

the troubled prison system in England and Wales -

:02:14.:02:15.

the biggest reform since The governors of six prisons

:02:16.:02:18.

are to be given extensive new powers over budgets

:02:19.:02:23.

and education programmes. Among them is Wandsworth Prison

:02:24.:02:26.

in south-west London, After months of negotiating

:02:27.:02:28.

with the Ministry of Justice, the BBC has gained exclusive access

:02:29.:02:36.

inside the prison to see Our correspondent Ed Thomas has

:02:37.:02:39.

spent the past week inside. The BBC has been given

:02:40.:02:47.

unprecedented access Over seven days, we saw

:02:48.:02:53.

the fear and violence. There's one person under restraint

:02:54.:03:04.

there. You've got to be able

:03:05.:03:05.

to defend yourself, innit. If you can't defend yourself,

:03:06.:03:09.

you'll become a victim, innit? And the prison officers pushed

:03:10.:03:12.

to the very edge. I think I'm probably the most

:03:13.:03:24.

stressed I've been in 24 years A prisoner has refused

:03:25.:03:26.

to go back to his cell. 20 years ago, the inmate

:03:27.:03:43.

in the middle of all of this We can't identify him,

:03:44.:03:45.

but he told us he was trapped I've had warfare

:03:46.:03:53.

with politics in jail. I've got sliced down the side

:03:54.:03:59.

of the face. I've got three broken

:04:00.:04:01.

bones in my hand. I've had murderers in here,

:04:02.:04:06.

left right and centre. I've gone to them, and said, look,

:04:07.:04:08.

at the end of the day, you're putting in a predicament

:04:09.:04:11.

where I have no alternative but to utilise violence

:04:12.:04:13.

for my safety. And, with the greatest of respect,

:04:14.:04:15.

they're so short staffed in here, Even a lot of the staff that

:04:16.:04:18.

are in here are in fear. Next E Wing - and the smell

:04:19.:04:22.

of cannabis is everywhere. It's overwhelming,

:04:23.:04:31.

especially up here. And then we see it -

:04:32.:04:35.

a group smoking below No-one cares, it's

:04:36.:04:38.

like there's no order. How do you feel about people smoking

:04:39.:04:47.

cannabis down there? Imagine they can't get it next week,

:04:48.:04:49.

there's going to be fights and that. Where can you get cannabis

:04:50.:04:54.

from around here? How does that make

:04:55.:04:58.

you feel, hearing that? Well, obviously,

:04:59.:05:11.

it's not good, is it? It defeats everything that we're

:05:12.:05:13.

trying to do as a service. You don't have to look far to find

:05:14.:05:15.

drugs in Wandsworth. He says all drugs are available

:05:16.:05:21.

at all times. You can get Spice, you can get

:05:22.:05:28.

heroin, you can get crack. All I've got to do is go down

:05:29.:05:31.

to the twos, to the threes, Everything's there,

:05:32.:05:38.

anything you like. Then there's the alcohol,

:05:39.:05:41.

brewed in cells. And the mobile phones too,

:05:42.:05:45.

all smuggled into Wandsworth. A smartphone, several hundred quid

:05:46.:05:59.

they go for, retail price. This prisoner asked us not

:06:00.:06:02.

to show his face. I know officers that charge you say

:06:03.:06:11.

?500 a parcel, the size of, say, three tennis balls full of drugs,

:06:12.:06:24.

phones, whatever you want. The BBC was invited here to hear

:06:25.:06:30.

these stories, to see the pressure from a Governor

:06:31.:06:37.

who's demanding change. Corruption is the one thing that

:06:38.:06:42.

I absolutely cannot stand, one of the first things we will do

:06:43.:06:48.

with reform is to think very carefully about how do we deal

:06:49.:06:51.

with those issues of corruption and what do we do to tackle those

:06:52.:06:54.

staff bringing those drugs in? That will deal with some

:06:55.:06:57.

of the issues that you've highlighted and you've

:06:58.:06:59.

seen over the last week. But how long will this

:07:00.:07:01.

prison reform take? The pressure inside is building now,

:07:02.:07:04.

and officers are getting hurt. At the moment, he's just been

:07:05.:07:10.

a victim of an assault. My wife worries that I'm

:07:11.:07:13.

not going to come home. If she could, she would have me out

:07:14.:07:16.

of the job. Wandsworth has been

:07:17.:07:20.

Andy Topping's life. I believe my staff want

:07:21.:07:23.

to make a difference. What's happening

:07:24.:07:32.

to your mental health? I don't think people care

:07:33.:07:38.

about what's happening What is happening

:07:39.:07:42.

to your mental health? I think I'm probably the most

:07:43.:07:46.

stressed I've been in 24 If I'm like my colleagues,

:07:47.:07:49.

I'll retire and I'll die early. This prison revolution,

:07:50.:07:57.

a promise to fix broken jails, The access we have had inside

:07:58.:08:21.

Wandsworth is so rare, to walk down these corridors, to go into the

:08:22.:08:25.

cells and speak to inmates, because the governor here wanted to open up

:08:26.:08:29.

his prison to the outside world. He wanted people to know the pressure

:08:30.:08:33.

he is facing and call for change. Wandsworth will now lead the prison

:08:34.:08:39.

reform. Here, they say it will help with rehabilitation and reoffending,

:08:40.:08:43.

and also speak to the staff here. They say what happens here matters,

:08:44.:08:48.

because too many lives have been wasted, lost behind the prison cell.

:08:49.:08:53.

Ed Thomas in Wandsworth prison tonight.

:08:54.:08:56.

Michael Gove, the Justice Secretary, has admitted there are significant

:08:57.:08:58.

problems within the prison system in England and Wales.

:08:59.:09:00.

He says he has serious concerns about the safety of prisoners

:09:01.:09:03.

and prison staff, and that drugs and violence behind bars

:09:04.:09:06.

could undermine the reforms he is proposing.

:09:07.:09:09.

One new measure could see more prisoners let out of jail to work

:09:10.:09:12.

on day release as part of their rehabilitation.

:09:13.:09:14.

Our special correspondent Lucy Manning reports.

:09:15.:09:17.

Michael Gove knows he's got problems - what to do about prisons many

:09:18.:09:20.

say are overcrowded, underfunded, full

:09:21.:09:22.

So he thinks his new autonomous jails will work.

:09:23.:09:29.

They will, I hope, be places of rehabilitation,

:09:30.:09:32.

But as gangs fight over the supply of drugs in Wandsworth's prison

:09:33.:09:39.

yard, it is clear they're a long way from that.

:09:40.:09:42.

And he doesn't shy away from a damning assessment.

:09:43.:09:46.

Your Chief Inspector of Prisons says that some prisons

:09:47.:09:48.

Do you agree that some of them are not

:09:49.:09:52.

Why do you think they're not fit for purpose?

:09:53.:09:57.

There are some prisons which are not safe enough.

:09:58.:09:59.

Not safe enough for prisoners, Not safe enough for the dedicated

:10:00.:10:02.

Related to that, there are some prisons simply not doing a good

:10:03.:10:08.

enough job in providing either education or employment

:10:09.:10:10.

And he admits the increase in drugs and weapons is worrying.

:10:11.:10:17.

The startling footage of a drone flying in a package of highly

:10:18.:10:21.

addictive legal highs and phones into a prison cell is something

:10:22.:10:25.

the Justice Secretary saw when broadcast by the BBC this week.

:10:26.:10:28.

What did you make of what you saw from that footage?

:10:29.:10:34.

I thought the public will now realise one of the big

:10:35.:10:36.

We're taking action now to deal with the corruption that sometimes

:10:37.:10:45.

facilitates getting these drugs into prison.

:10:46.:10:49.

And we are also taking action to ensure that we audit our estate

:10:50.:10:53.

in order to ensure that we can prevent drugs coming in in the way

:10:54.:10:57.

But critics complain there are just too many people in jails

:10:58.:11:02.

So, part of Mr Gove's plan is allowing people out to work.

:11:03.:11:09.

That means the prisoners can spend time out of their cell and out

:11:10.:11:13.

of jail, working for an employer, learning what responsibility means

:11:14.:11:16.

and preparing for a useful life on the outside.

:11:17.:11:20.

Will that be safe for the wider public?

:11:21.:11:22.

He admits the rise in suicide, self-harm and violence

:11:23.:11:27.

could undermine his reforms but denies funding and staffing

:11:28.:11:30.

But he accepts too many are re-offending.

:11:31.:11:37.

The whole point of having someone in prison, the whole point

:11:38.:11:40.

of spending as much as parents spend to send their kids to Eton

:11:41.:11:47.

on an individual, every year, is to change their lives.

:11:48.:11:49.

We won't a change their lives if we leave them banged

:11:50.:11:52.

It is only by transforming our prisons that we will make

:11:53.:11:56.

That's why, when people say this is a soft agenda and you're

:11:57.:12:00.

coddling prisoners, they couldn't be more wrong.

:12:01.:12:02.

When you have drugs ordered in and just lifted up

:12:03.:12:05.

and over the prison walls, the problems are pretty stark.

:12:06.:12:09.

Mr Gove knows them - but can anything he does change them?

:12:10.:12:12.

Lucy Manning, talking to the Justice Secretary, Michael Gove.

:12:13.:12:23.

Tomorrow on the programme Ed Thomas will have the second

:12:24.:12:26.

of his special reports from inside Wandsworth Prison.

:12:27.:12:28.

As well as prison reform in England and Wales,

:12:29.:12:30.

the Government has been setting out other legislative plans

:12:31.:12:32.

There were 21 bills, including reform of the adoption

:12:33.:12:35.

system in England, plans to recover money back from foreign visitors

:12:36.:12:40.

who use the NHS and a legal right to fast broadband around the UK.

:12:41.:12:47.

But, as our political editor Laura Kuenssberg reports, the day

:12:48.:12:49.

was again clouded by arguments within the Conservative Party

:12:50.:12:51.

The show must go on, and what a show.

:12:52.:13:03.

However uncertain the next five weeks, however divided

:13:04.:13:05.

the governing party, the gold shines as brightly as ever,

:13:06.:13:09.

The Crown, that symbol of power so precious it

:13:10.:13:16.

Arriving first, to be ready for the Royal head.

:13:17.:13:27.

On the 63rd occasion, the Queen proclaiming

:13:28.:13:35.

For the first time, at 90, the monarch taking the lift.

:13:36.:13:48.

A different route into the Royal Robing Room

:13:49.:13:50.

The Labour leader's first time at the front.

:13:51.:14:05.

The Tory leader knows it just might be his last.

:14:06.:14:10.

So the proposals, ministers on both sides of the EU debate want

:14:11.:14:12.

you to think they're still thinking about us all.

:14:13.:14:19.

My Government will use the opportunity of a strengthening

:14:20.:14:22.

economy to deliver security for working people, to increase life

:14:23.:14:24.

In these most gilded of surroundings, a plan

:14:25.:14:33.

My Government will legislate to reform prisons and courts to give

:14:34.:14:39.

There are plans to speed up adoptions and more support

:14:40.:14:46.

An Education Bill, with more Academies in England

:14:47.:14:51.

and new universities too, and a sugar tax on soft drinks.

:14:52.:14:57.

The Prime Minister believes these plans show his ambition to help

:14:58.:15:00.

people politics has forgotten, a one-nation Government,

:15:01.:15:03.

There'll be new laws to tackle extremism and proposed extra powers

:15:04.:15:11.

for the security services and, awkward for Labour, a Bill to renew

:15:12.:15:13.

But look who's watching, look who's waiting, the referendum

:15:14.:15:19.

My Government will hold a referendum on membership of the European Union.

:15:20.:15:32.

Today hasn't been short on ceremony, these occasions never are,

:15:33.:15:39.

but now the Queen's headed back up to the Palace.

:15:40.:15:42.

In terms of brand new ideas, it all feels rather empty.

:15:43.:15:49.

The referendum has put strain on the Government,

:15:50.:15:51.

so it's avoided anything too controversial and some

:15:52.:15:52.

of the previous tricky ideas have actually disappeared.

:15:53.:15:59.

There was no sign of a Sovereignty Bill to appease those

:16:00.:16:02.

who want to leave the EU and only vague proposals for a British Bill

:16:03.:16:05.

of Rights to replace the Human Rights Act.

:16:06.:16:08.

What's actually happening, as a result of this,

:16:09.:16:10.

is that a Government agenda has been parked, or even dropped.

:16:11.:16:14.

That seems to me, not to be the right thing to do.

:16:15.:16:17.

But David Cameron was sticking to his script.

:16:18.:16:22.

This is a Queen's Speech that combines economic security

:16:23.:16:25.

It's the Queen's Speech of a progressive, one-nation

:16:26.:16:28.

Jeremy Corbyn was far from impressed.

:16:29.:16:35.

Whether you're actually in or out of the EU,

:16:36.:16:37.

the main obstacle holding back the people of this country

:16:38.:16:52.

is not the EU, but that Conservative Government.

:16:53.:16:54.

When the Prime Minister talks about this being a one-nation

:16:55.:16:56.

Queen's Speech we, on these benches, know which nation

:16:57.:16:58.

These are strange times in Westminster.

:16:59.:17:01.

Parliament's most significant event of the year might be soon forgotten,

:17:02.:17:03.

but perhaps moments of big political risk require small ambition.

:17:04.:17:08.

a diluted agenda ahead of the EU referendum. What was your sense of

:17:09.:17:21.

the programme unveiled? The referendum howling around

:17:22.:17:23.

Westminster at the moment, along with the wind tonight. It feels like

:17:24.:17:27.

that the Queen's Speech today might not have mattered very much. We may

:17:28.:17:29.

look back in six or 12 months' what was set out today mattered very

:17:30.:17:37.

much. Not just because there are plans and ideased in there that

:17:38.:17:41.

could make a difference, cracking on with broadband in the countryside,

:17:42.:17:45.

paving the way for new universities which might charge higher fees or

:17:46.:17:47.

changes to the prison system or the care system, for that matter. But

:17:48.:17:53.

also because it tells us something more about what David Cameron wants

:17:54.:17:54.

to do with his time in office, if he makes it through the referendum. A

:17:55.:18:01.

member of his team said to me the message he is trying to put forward

:18:02.:18:03.

is that he cares and people who politics has

:18:04.:18:09.

long-forgotten. For the Labour Party and the other oppositions, David

:18:10.:18:12.

Cameron's ambition in that sense might be

:18:13.:18:13.

having a real brass neck. In a time of a squeeze on public budgets the

:18:14.:18:21.

rhetoric certainly rubs with the reality.

:18:22.:18:22.

lay out the Government's desired path, through the centre ground of

:18:23.:18:28.

through the referendum unscathed. Laura, thank

:18:29.:18:36.

you very much again. If you would like more

:18:37.:18:41.

is the address you need. David Duckenfield --

:18:53.:19:16.

the former chief superintendent of South Yorkshire police --

:19:17.:19:17.

who was in charge of policing on the day of the Hillsborough

:19:18.:19:20.

football disaster -- has refused to respond

:19:21.:19:22.

to calls -- that he should The inquests into the deaths

:19:23.:19:32.

of the 96 Liverpool fans -- who died at the ground in 1989 --

concluded that they had David Duckenfield --

:19:37.:19:39.

the former chief superintendent I gave a message and I had nothing

:19:40.:20:19.

more to say. I hope you will excuse me. It was three weeks ago that the

:20:20.:20:25.

families of the 96 fans who died left the inquests in a mood of

:20:26.:20:32.

jubilant belief. 27 years of fighting for justice at an end. The

:20:33.:20:36.

jury ruled that all of those who lost their lives did so as a result

:20:37.:20:42.

of unlawful killing. David Duckenfield gave the order that

:20:43.:20:47.

opened the gates that allowed supporters into overcrowded

:20:48.:20:50.

terraces. The family say he compounded his mistakes by lying

:20:51.:20:54.

about it over subsequent inquiries. It was the failure to tell the

:20:55.:20:58.

truth, as well as the unlawful killing decisions at the inquest,

:20:59.:21:02.

that have led families to call for Mr Dukinfield to face criminal

:21:03.:21:06.

charges. He may have tried to keep a low profile in places like the

:21:07.:21:10.

United States, but the Crown Prosecution Service are still to

:21:11.:21:13.

decide if he should be subject to new legal proceedings. Tonight,

:21:14.:21:17.

David Duckenfield is believed to be back in Britain, with the message

:21:18.:21:19.

from the Hillsborough families that he still has not been held fully

:21:20.:21:23.

account for his disastrous actions. The Nigerian army has confirmed that

:21:24.:21:30.

one of the 200 Chibok schoolgirls, kidnapped by the militant group

:21:31.:21:33.

Boko Haram, has been found, the first to be

:21:34.:21:35.

rescued in two years. The girls were kidnapped

:21:36.:21:37.

by militants from a boarding school in the north-east of the country

:21:38.:21:40.

in April 2014. Our correspondent, Will Ross,

:21:41.:21:44.

spent time in northern Nigeria following the story,

:21:45.:21:47.

and he's with me now. Would be people be right in thinking

:21:48.:21:56.

and hoping that the circumstances of this girl will lead to finding lots

:21:57.:22:00.

of the others? Very difficult to say, of course. Fantastic news for

:22:01.:22:05.

young Amina's family wef understand there has been a very emotional

:22:06.:22:11.

reunion in her home village. Her mother apparently couldn't stop

:22:12.:22:14.

hugging her. Literally people around had to make sure they didn't

:22:15.:22:17.

collapse on the ground, they were hugging each other so hard. Her life

:22:18.:22:22.

has changed completely. She's come out of this captivity with a four

:22:23.:22:27.

month old baby girl. Yes, the big question is, what about the other

:22:28.:22:31.

218 schoolgirls who are still missing? I think this rescue will

:22:32.:22:36.

give some hope to those relatives that one day they'll also be able to

:22:37.:22:41.

be able to be reunited. It's very difficult still. We think some of

:22:42.:22:50.

them could be being held in this forest. Any attempt to rescue them

:22:51.:22:57.

will be fraught with danger. The jihadists guard them very closely.

:22:58.:23:00.

They know have value. They have tried to use them as bargaining

:23:01.:23:05.

chips to get their own commanders released in a kind of peace deal.

:23:06.:23:11.

Thanks very much for the update. Will Ross there for us.

:23:12.:23:18.

Agreement has been reached to end the long-running dispute

:23:19.:23:20.

between the Government and junior doctors in England.

:23:21.:23:22.

The dispute, over the terms of a new employment contract

:23:23.:23:24.

and weekend working, has resulted in a series

:23:25.:23:26.

But the agreement must still be agreed by junior doctors

:23:27.:23:30.

in a vote as our health editor, Hugh Pym, reports.

:23:31.:23:32.

A dispute which began last autumn, a series of strikes at hospitals

:23:33.:23:36.

in England, tens of thousands of cancelled operations and now,

:23:37.:23:39.

after 10 days of intensive talks, the Government and the doctors'

:23:40.:23:42.

union have reached agreement over a new contract.

:23:43.:23:44.

For ministers, weekend pay was the the key issue.

:23:45.:23:48.

This has the effect of making it much cheaper for hospitals to roster

:23:49.:23:53.

extra doctors at weekends, which will mean that we can promise

:23:54.:23:56.

patients, as part of a bigger seven-day NHS programme,

:23:57.:23:58.

that they should be able to get the same, high quality care

:23:59.:24:02.

which ever day of the week they're admitted to hospitals.

:24:03.:24:05.

But for the British Medical Association there

:24:06.:24:06.

The real important issues in this contract are around making sure

:24:07.:24:11.

There is appropriate educational value to working.

:24:12.:24:17.

That we train the future workforce, consultant workforce,

:24:18.:24:21.

and ensure that patient safety in this country is maintained.

:24:22.:24:24.

The contract agreement will see a basic pay rise of between 10%

:24:25.:24:27.

and 11% with a reduction in unsocial hours pay and an allowance

:24:28.:24:30.

after working more than six weekends per year.

:24:31.:24:33.

Equal opportunities concerns, mainly affecting

:24:34.:24:36.

One doctor said she was now less worried about working

:24:37.:24:41.

I think it is genuinely for the first time addressing junior

:24:42.:24:47.

doctors real and heartfelt concerns about the notion that they can

:24:48.:24:49.

still provide a safe service for patients while being stretched

:24:50.:24:52.

There'll be no further industrial action at hospitals while the ballot

:24:53.:25:01.

Junior doctors members of the BMA will study what's been agreed

:25:02.:25:09.

in early July and certainly no-one's taking the result for granted.

:25:10.:25:18.

It's been a bitter dispute and there's been a negative reaction

:25:19.:25:21.

Even so, the agreement does look like a big step forward with both

:25:22.:25:25.

sides far apart only a few weeks ago, each arguing

:25:26.:25:27.

The Welsh Labour leader, Carwyn Jones, has been re-elected

:25:28.:25:35.

Opposition parties in effect blocked his appointment last week,

:25:36.:25:40.

but today he was elected following a deal with Plaid Cymru.

:25:41.:25:43.

Their leader, Leanne Wood, said it was just a "one-off"

:25:44.:25:46.

Venezuelan police have fired tear gas at thousands of protesters

:25:47.:25:54.

in the capital who blame the socialist government

:25:55.:25:56.

Police arrested several people and blocked roads to prevent

:25:57.:26:02.

the demonstrators from marching to the headquarters of the Electoral

:26:03.:26:04.

The opposition is trying to oust President Maduro from office,

:26:05.:26:09.

but the move has been blocked by authorities.

:26:10.:26:15.

Liverpool failed to win the Europa League Final this

:26:16.:26:17.

Our sports correspondent, Joe Wilson, reports from Basle.

:26:18.:26:26.

Thousands in Basel would never get near to the football stadium.

:26:27.:26:33.

The ticketless and the devoted were left to the fanzone, to be fans.

:26:34.:26:36.

# We're the best football team in the land

:26:37.:26:39.

By 7.00pm local time, rain had fallen.

:26:40.:26:45.

Between the discarded beer cans, keeping dry was a priority.

:26:46.:26:49.

The ground had a roof, with seats beneath, if far

:26:50.:26:51.

On the pitch, this final began at cautious pace.

:26:52.:26:57.

An opening for Liverpool's leaping Daniel Sturridge,

:26:58.:26:58.

Perhaps they could let Sturridge have the ball.

:26:59.:27:04.

So often, the word after Sturridge has been "injured."

:27:05.:27:19.

This time, just follow the ball.

:27:20.:27:21.

Suddenly, Liverpool surged forward and there were certain they saw

:27:22.:27:24.

a handball before half-time.

:27:25.:27:25.

Second half began with Liverpool left standing and Sevilla

:27:26.:27:32.

Just over an hour gone, and the final was transformed.

:27:33.:27:45.

Not the interpretation of the offside rules,

:27:46.:27:48.

this was, however you see it, whether you believe it, 3-1.

:27:49.:27:52.

Liverpool lost a final they had controlled, and that hurts

:27:53.:27:55.

Well the fan zone behind me empty. Sevilla won this tournament three

:27:56.:28:13.

years in a row. What about Jurgen Klopp, his team were off the pace in

:28:14.:28:17.

the Premier League and lost in two Cup finals. He told me, you simply

:28:18.:28:23.

cannot do that as manager of Liverpool and be deemed successful.

:28:24.:28:27.

All right, Joe, thanks very much again. Joe Wilson there with the

:28:28.:28:31.

latest on the outcome of that match there in Basel.

:28:32.:28:37.

Some of the world's best composers and songwriters will be honoured

:28:38.:28:40.

tomorrow at the annual Ivor Novello awards in London which celebrate

:28:41.:28:42.

excellence in British and Irish songwriting and composing.

:28:43.:28:45.

But behind the scenes there is another, less

:28:46.:28:47.

well-known tale of success, the young British talents

:28:48.:28:49.

who are writing songs for some of the biggest names

:28:50.:28:52.

Colleen Harris has been talking to two of them.

:28:53.:28:55.

# These four lonely walls can't change the way

:28:56.:29:00.

it doesn't get much bigger than Beyonce.

:29:01.:29:07.

Carla Marie Williams, a youth worker from London,

:29:08.:29:09.

pursued song writing as a career, and it paid off.

:29:10.:29:14.

# Nothing else had us, now you're not here,

:29:15.:29:16.

When Running came out, I was in Westfield.

:29:17.:29:19.

Someone was like - "wow, Beyonce's just dropped a song."

:29:20.:29:22.

I was like, "it's me. Yay!"

:29:23.:29:24.

Then I was like, oh, this is international now.

:29:25.:29:29.

This isn't just, like, about London or anything.

:29:30.:29:31.

Being British, and clearly with something to say,

:29:32.:29:39.

Beyonce called on Carla Marie for her latest album, Lemonade.

:29:40.:29:44.

I think definitely it's opened up other

:29:45.:29:53.

doors, especially in America because I feel like they love what

:29:54.:29:56.

When you listen to Freedom and you listen to Running,

:29:57.:30:01.

they're different types of song to what maybe

:30:02.:30:03.

Last year, British songwriters earnt more than ?500 million collectively

:30:04.:30:09.

and this week some of the best will be honoured at the songwriting

:30:10.:30:14.

We have fantastic music education and also we now

:30:15.:30:20.

have a history of 50 or 60 years of fantastic writers, such

:30:21.:30:24.

as the Beatles, David Bowie, Kate Bush,

:30:25.:30:27.

All of these fantastic writers and they act

:30:28.:30:34.

as role models for the next generation coming up.

:30:35.:30:36.

Another Brit doing well in America is Bradford girl, Teddy Sinclair.

:30:37.:30:40.

She posted a song online and caught the attention of the right people.

:30:41.:30:44.

Now living in New York, she's penned songs for Madonna and,

:30:45.:30:48.

# Waiting on that sunshine for I think I need that back...#

:30:49.:30:55.

I feel very lucky to work with Rihanna,

:30:56.:30:59.

to work with Madonna, Alicia Keys because

:31:00.:31:04.

the most important feelings or thoughts or opinions I've had,

:31:05.:31:08.

that I've put into music, are things that

:31:09.:31:10.

they've also shared enough to believe in it when they

:31:11.:31:13.

Despite their success, 80% of British songwriters are men.

:31:14.:31:17.

So creating workshops for female newcomers

:31:18.:31:20.

Whether or not it's about emotion, heartbreak, politics, you know,

:31:21.:31:26.

always try and dig a little bit deeper.

:31:27.:31:28.

Words to inspire the next generation.

:31:29.:31:31.

# I'm going to keep running because a winner

:31:32.:31:36.
