Hello, it's Wednesday, it's 9 o'clock, I'm Victoria Derbyshire.

:00:09.:00:10.

Already the most decorated Olympian in history, Michael Phelps now has

:00:11.:00:20.

his 20 first medal. -- 21st. There's been more success for Team

:00:21.:00:24.

GBs swimmers overnight, with silver medals for the men's

:00:25.:00:26.

four by 200 freestyle relay team and for Siobhan-Marie O'Connor

:00:27.:00:29.

in the 200m individual medley. It feels pretty unreal! I am trying

:00:30.:00:38.

not to cry! But it is the best feeling in the world. When I looked

:00:39.:00:43.

up and sat -- and saw the time and position, I was like, what?

:00:44.:00:46.

We will have the latest on all of the Rio action.

:00:47.:00:48.

And we will be talking to the wife of British rider William Fox Pitt

:00:49.:00:52.

about his battle back from a horrendous fall

:00:53.:00:54.

from his horse which put him in a coma for two weeks

:00:55.:00:57.

Maureen Lound's son William was brutally murdered by a paranoid

:00:58.:01:01.

schizophrenic with a long history of violence who was placed

:01:02.:01:03.

in the community, despite telling doctors himself that he would be

:01:04.:01:06.

better off remaining in a secure mental health unit.

:01:07.:01:08.

In her first TV interview since the killer's conviction last

:01:09.:01:10.

week, she will be talking to us about the care failures

:01:11.:01:13.

And have you been sexually harassed at work?

:01:14.:01:17.

Almost two-thirds of women aged 18 to 24 have been,

:01:18.:01:19.

We'll be hearing what kind of things women have experienced and what must

:01:20.:01:25.

Good morning, welcome to the programme.

:01:26.:01:41.

We're live until 11am, as we are every weekday morning.

:01:42.:01:47.

We'll bring you the latest news, sport and interviews

:01:48.:01:49.

In about half an hour, we're going to talk to some people

:01:50.:01:54.

who went to university in recent years and now regret it -

:01:55.:01:57.

for all sorts of reasons - but if that is you,

:01:58.:02:03.

if you're between 18 and 35 and you've got a degree,

:02:04.:02:10.

are you thinking is it worth it right now?

:02:11.:02:12.

Particularly if you're slowly paying back thousands in student loans.

:02:13.:02:14.

Here's how to get in touch - you know what to do.

:02:15.:02:17.

And if you're tweeting, use the hashtag Victoria LIVE.

:02:18.:02:19.

if you text, the cost to you will be the standard network rate.

:02:20.:02:22.

Record-breaker Michael Phelps won two more races in

:02:23.:02:26.

It takes the American's tally of Olympic golds to 21.

:02:27.:02:33.

It was also a great night for Team GB too.

:02:34.:02:39.

It took until the early hours of the morning for any British

:02:40.:02:45.

medals to be won on day five of the Games,

:02:46.:02:48.

There were silvers for Siobhan-Marie O'Connor

:02:49.:02:50.

in the women's 200-metre medley, and for the men in the

:02:51.:02:53.

This is the difference between gold and silver.

:02:54.:02:57.

Few expected Siobhan-Marie O'Connor to make it so close,

:02:58.:02:59.

In her 200-metre individual medley final, she was up against

:03:00.:03:05.

Hungarian Katinka Hosszu, known as the Iron Lady.

:03:06.:03:07.

In the pool, the lady's not for catching.

:03:08.:03:14.

Although O'Connor, just 20, almost managed it.

:03:15.:03:16.

COMMENTATOR: Siobhan-Marie O'Connor is getting very close indeed.

:03:17.:03:21.

The gold has just gone to Hosszu, but only just.

:03:22.:03:27.

Hosszu can hardly have been pushed closer.

:03:28.:03:29.

Silver can rarely have been so thoroughly earned.

:03:30.:03:31.

But it is, oh, the best feeling in the world.

:03:32.:03:36.

When I looked up and saw the time and position, I was like, what?

:03:37.:03:39.

As so often at the Olympic Games, one medal inspires another.

:03:40.:03:42.

Next, the 4x200 freestyle relay team.

:03:43.:03:44.

By the final leg, they were chasing the Americans.

:03:45.:03:53.

James Guy, on the right, was pipped for an individual freestyle medal.

:03:54.:03:56.

He secured silver for his team behind the USA and the great Michael

:03:57.:04:00.

That was Gold number 21 for Michael Phelps.

:04:01.:04:12.

It was his second appearance of the evening.

:04:13.:04:15.

The most decorated Olympian of all time said he would quit

:04:16.:04:19.

after London, but in the 200 metre butterfly final he was back.

:04:20.:04:22.

In the next lane to Chad Le Clos, the man who beat him

:04:23.:04:25.

Into the final length and the stage was set for the Duel in the Pool,

:04:26.:04:33.

but in an Olympic final, threats can come from anywhere.

:04:34.:04:36.

Triumph fopr the greatest swimmer of all time.

:04:37.:04:52.

The diving competition is held in another pool and it is not

:04:53.:04:55.

Despite the unexplained green, it was safe for the divers.

:04:56.:04:58.

Couch and Tolson tried to concentrate on style over tone,

:04:59.:05:01.

And the canoe centre was full of confidence with David Florence,

:05:02.:05:08.

after all, the world champion in the C1 category, however,

:05:09.:05:10.

on turbulent waters, nothing can be taken for granted.

:05:11.:05:12.

Fighting the torrents and the clock, one mistake prompted another.

:05:13.:05:22.

Florence washed up in tenth, with all hopes of glory focused

:05:23.:05:25.

In gymnastics, the waves are gentler, but the

:05:26.:05:30.

America was so strong, they were to be enjoyed

:05:31.:05:33.

Great Britain's hopes for a first Olympic women's team medal,

:05:34.:05:45.

the first since 1928, ultimately fell away.

:05:46.:05:54.

The beam is just ten centimetres wide and was

:05:55.:05:57.

Britain finished fifth, but it was not a night

:05:58.:06:00.

For most of the women's tennis, hope grows when Serena goes,

:06:01.:06:03.

and Williams, Olympic champion, is out.

:06:04.:06:10.

Shocked by Elina Svitolina, of Ukraine, who will be on a few

:06:11.:06:13.

Not least Johanna Konta, who came down from Svetlana Kuznetsova to set

:06:14.:06:17.

up a quarterfinal with the Wimbledon finalist Angelique Kerber.

:06:18.:06:31.

And Konta is coming up with Jamie Murray for mixed doubles.

:06:32.:06:33.

The Wimbledon champion Andy Murray is busy with the singles.

:06:34.:06:36.

Fabio Fognini from Italy will play Andy Murray next.

:06:37.:06:45.

Might Murray carry our sporting hopes for the second

:06:46.:06:48.

In a few minutes, Sport will have more on Rio.

:06:49.:06:51.

And as the the first of the rowing finals gets underway,

:06:52.:06:54.

We'll be speaking to a former rower about what to expect.

:06:55.:06:57.

Maxine Mawhinney is in the BBC Newsroom with a summary

:06:58.:07:00.

The cross-Channel Eurostar service is to be hit by seven

:07:01.:07:04.

days of strike action, starting this coming weekend.

:07:05.:07:06.

The action is being taken by train managers who belong to the RMT

:07:07.:07:09.

Union, in a dispute over rosters and work-life balance.

:07:10.:07:12.

But Eurostar says it will still be able to provide what it calls

:07:13.:07:15.

a "good service" to customers, by making small changes

:07:16.:07:17.

This weekend's stoppage by the RMT staff runs from Friday to Monday,

:07:18.:07:27.

and there'll be a further 3 days of action over the Bank holiday

:07:28.:07:30.

It's the third dispute to break out on the railways.

:07:31.:07:34.

Southern Railway workers are on strike this week -

:07:35.:07:36.

and the union has also announced there's been a vote

:07:37.:07:38.

in favour of strike action on Virgin Trains East Coast.

:07:39.:07:42.

NHS managers are considering closing an A department at night

:07:43.:07:46.

United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust says it's

:07:47.:07:50.

considering the measure at Grantham and District Hospital to help deal

:07:51.:07:53.

A spokesman for the Trust said that failing to act "may

:07:54.:08:01.

But the Royal College for Emergency Medicine says

:08:02.:08:04.

the news is "disappointing, yet unsurprising".

:08:05.:08:10.

We'll have more on this story in around half an hour's

:08:11.:08:13.

time when we'll speak to our Health Editor, Hugh Pym.

:08:14.:08:15.

Donald Trump has sparked fresh controversy by appearing to suggest

:08:16.:08:18.

that gun owners could use violence to prevent Hillary Clinton

:08:19.:08:20.

from taking away their right to bear arms.

:08:21.:08:24.

He told a rally in North Carolina that if his Democratic rival forced

:08:25.:08:27.

through constitutional change there was nothing anyone

:08:28.:08:29.

could do about it - except perhaps gun owners.

:08:30.:08:31.

A Democratic Senator said the remarks amounted

:08:32.:08:33.

to an assassination threat - a claim denied by Mr

:08:34.:08:35.

Our North America Correspondent David Willis reports.

:08:36.:08:47.

Donald Trump has courted the support of America's gun owners,

:08:48.:08:53.

but his latest comments in defence of their Second Amendment right

:08:54.:08:56.

to bear arms have been interpreted by some as either a call

:08:57.:08:59.

for an armed revolt or the assassination

:09:00.:09:00.

Essentially abolish the Second Amendment.

:09:01.:09:11.

By the way, and if she gets to pick...

:09:12.:09:13.

If she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks.

:09:14.:09:22.

Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is,

:09:23.:09:24.

Astonishment at that statement wasn't confined to the man

:09:25.:09:27.

Hillary Clinton's spokesman branded the remarks dangerous,

:09:28.:09:39.

while Chris Murphy, whose district includes Newtown,

:09:40.:09:47.

scene of one of the worst shootings in US history, said it amounted

:09:48.:09:51.

to an assassination threat, seriously upping the possibility

:09:52.:09:52.

The Trump campaign said they had been appealing to gun rights

:09:53.:09:56.

campaigners to come and vote, but it eclipsed an embarrassing episode

:09:57.:09:59.

for Hillary Clinton, after the father of the man

:10:00.:10:01.

who killed 49 people in another mass shooting nearby was seen

:10:02.:10:03.

in the audience at one of her rallies in Florida.

:10:04.:10:13.

The Clinton campaign said Sadiq Mateen,

:10:14.:10:15.

the man who opened fire in a nightclub, was not invited

:10:16.:10:19.

Rather than seizing on that, Donald Trump has provided his

:10:20.:10:23.

critics with more ammunition, just as his unconventional campaign

:10:24.:10:25.

The TUC says employers should take urgent action after a survey found

:10:26.:10:30.

that two out of three women under 25 said they'd been sexually

:10:31.:10:33.

The majority of victims said they didn't tell their managers

:10:34.:10:39.

because they were frightened it would harm their careers.

:10:40.:10:44.

Theresa May has spoken to the Russian leader,

:10:45.:10:46.

Vladimir Putin, for the first time since she became Prime Minister.

:10:47.:10:49.

It's understood Mrs May agreed with Mr Putin of the need

:10:50.:10:51.

to try to improve the strained relationship between

:10:52.:10:53.

Downing Street said the PM told President Putin she hoped

:10:54.:10:57.

they could communicate in "an open and honest way" in the future.

:10:58.:11:04.

The UN is calling for an urgent humanitarian pause in fighting

:11:05.:11:08.

in Aleppo, to deliver aid and repair damaged electricity

:11:09.:11:10.

Rebel fighters and some jihadist militants have been battling

:11:11.:11:13.

through government-held areas in the south of the city,

:11:14.:11:19.

Syrian regime forces had surrounded the rebel-held east of the city,

:11:20.:11:29.

cutting off routes for food and deliveries.

:11:30.:11:33.

The UN says the supplies are urgently needed,

:11:34.:11:35.

One of Britain's richest men, the Duke of Westminster,

:11:36.:11:40.

The Duke was a close friend of Prince Charles,

:11:41.:11:45.

who is said to be "deeply shocked and saddened".

:11:46.:11:47.

He died at the Royal Preston Hospital in Lancashire

:11:48.:11:49.

yesterday after falling ill on his Abbeystead Estate.

:11:50.:11:56.

He owned large estates across the UK, including some

:11:57.:12:00.

of the most expensive areas in Central London and a large part

:12:01.:12:03.

A woman with a 100-year-old kidney she received from her mother

:12:04.:12:09.

in the 1970s is thought to have the world's oldest

:12:10.:12:11.

Sue Westhead received the organ in 1973, when her mother was 57.

:12:12.:12:17.

Doctors usually estimate a transplant from a living donor

:12:18.:12:19.

will last 20 years at most, but Sue's is still going strong.

:12:20.:12:28.

I only expected my kidney to last about five years and here I am

:12:29.:12:32.

My mother would have been 101 in November and it's really all down

:12:33.:12:36.

That's a summary of the latest BBC News.

:12:37.:12:45.

Back to Victoria. Thank you very much.

:12:46.:12:53.

Let's get the latest on the Olympics.

:12:54.:12:55.

John Watson is in the BBC Sport Centre for us.

:12:56.:12:57.

Two more medals in the pool for Great Britain overnight, John.

:12:58.:13:01.

I said it was a great night, it was -- and then all right, but it was a

:13:02.:13:08.

great night if you compare what happened in 2012 for the British

:13:09.:13:12.

swimmers, the Rio games have been really good.

:13:13.:13:17.

Yes, if you went to bed last night thinking it was a shame we missed

:13:18.:13:21.

out in the gymnastics and diving, it came good in the early hours in the

:13:22.:13:25.

swimming pool, with two more silver medals. This is how we got them.

:13:26.:13:30.

Siobhan-Marie O'Connor was going in the 200m individual medley and she

:13:31.:13:36.

came through to take silver. She would have got Gold, three tenths of

:13:37.:13:40.

a second away from taking the Gold. She set a new British record in the

:13:41.:13:45.

process, incredible result from her as we got the first silver medal in

:13:46.:13:50.

the pool last night. And we followed that in the men's relay, in the

:13:51.:13:56.

4x200m freestyle. James Guy anchoring the British team home,

:13:57.:14:02.

which was won by the United States. Especially impressive for him after

:14:03.:14:07.

missing out on a Bronze medal so narrowly in the individual event. He

:14:08.:14:10.

was clearly delighted to have finally got his hands on a medal at

:14:11.:14:12.

these games. Hallelujah! I think the first few

:14:13.:14:19.

days were a bit tough for me. I worked out I was going through an

:14:20.:14:23.

adaptation phase and I changed it around and got faster and faster

:14:24.:14:26.

each time and to get a medal finally. It has been a tough week,

:14:27.:14:32.

but we got a medal now. The team here is just a great building team,

:14:33.:14:37.

the youngest guy is 23. So by Tokyo, they will be fully grown men, ready

:14:38.:14:39.

for that title. More success for Michael Phelps, 21

:14:40.:14:52.

gold medals? Here is an absolute machine, coming out of retirement

:14:53.:14:56.

having been pipped to the gold medal in London 2012 in the butterfly,

:14:57.:15:02.

beaten by Chandler clock. He was determined not to be beaten again

:15:03.:15:07.

and he put on an incredible performance or take the gold medal

:15:08.:15:11.

in the 200 and is butterfly and he followed that with another gold

:15:12.:15:16.

medal shortly after in the men's four by 200 m freestyle final. --

:15:17.:15:26.

four by 200 metres freestyle final. His 20th and 21st gold medal.

:15:27.:15:31.

Incredible performance. And he extends his lead with all of those

:15:32.:15:36.

gold medals. Anyone close to him, he is the world's greatest Olympian,

:15:37.:15:41.

adding to that once again. What a performance. And in the diving,

:15:42.:15:47.

would you dive into Wood Green pool having changed from that lovely

:15:48.:15:56.

blue-collar? -- into a greener pool. This is the diving pool, Tom Daley

:15:57.:16:03.

and Dan Goodfellow won the bronze medal in this, and it is now green.

:16:04.:16:12.

The British divers narrowly missing out on the bronze medal. But they

:16:13.:16:18.

said they did not mind diving into that colour, they say it help them

:16:19.:16:22.

see the surface of the water when executing their dives. She said she

:16:23.:16:26.

has never seen anything like that but it seemingly did not put them

:16:27.:16:31.

off last night. The organisers said it was OK, perhaps an investigation

:16:32.:16:36.

should go into the chlorine content but officials said the water was

:16:37.:16:42.

fine to dive into. Disappointment for the women's gymnastics team and

:16:43.:16:47.

David Florence in the canoe slalom had a nightmare, finishing last. Not

:16:48.:16:53.

what we expected? It was a disappointment, he was a world

:16:54.:16:56.

champion and people that he would go very well. Almost certain other

:16:57.:17:00.

metal but he finished in tenth place in the end so bitterly disappointing

:17:01.:17:05.

Sony does have another go in another class and there is a chance of

:17:06.:17:10.

getting a medal. That is look at the medal table. Two more silver medals,

:17:11.:17:16.

Great Britain in 11th place at the moment. USA on top but more medal

:17:17.:17:22.

chances to come later on with the time trial for the men and women's

:17:23.:17:30.

cycling and we have the double trap at around one o'clock, more diving,

:17:31.:17:35.

Jack Nowell and Chris Mears in action and some rowing medals up for

:17:36.:17:39.

grabs as well. Anger is crossed we should be adding to that later on.

:17:40.:17:46.

Thank you very much. -- fingers crossed. Chris Froome Going for Gold

:17:47.:17:49.

and maybe, if he wins an Olympic gold medal, he will finally be

:17:50.:17:53.

embraced by the British public because his three Tour de France

:17:54.:17:58.

triumphs have not really lead to that love for him. That course is 54

:17:59.:18:04.

kilometres, just around the coast, around this course with a number of

:18:05.:18:10.

horrible hills twice. The men, anyway. 54 kilometres, including one

:18:11.:18:14.

hill that lasts just over 2.1 kilometres. For Britain and the

:18:15.:18:20.

woman, it is Emma Pooley in the time trials. Good luck to them! Do you

:18:21.:18:28.

regret going to university? Research says one third of people who became

:18:29.:18:33.

adults around the year 2000, if you were born in the naughties you have

:18:34.:18:38.

not gone to university yet, that was my mistake! But quite a lot of

:18:39.:18:43.

millennial 's say they wish they had not bothered because of the debt

:18:44.:18:49.

they have to pay back. We will talk to people who recently graduated and

:18:50.:18:53.

we want your own experience, money well spent? Have you achieved Cisco

:18:54.:18:59.

-- success without a degree? Get in touch the usual ways.

:19:00.:19:02.

Murdered because he was gay by a paranoid schizophrenic

:19:03.:19:04.

who should never have been placed in the community.

:19:05.:19:06.

William Lound who was 30 and studying at Salford University

:19:07.:19:09.

was killed by Lee Arnold earlier this year in what was

:19:10.:19:11.

described by a judge as 'transphobic and homophobic murder'.

:19:12.:19:15.

Arnold has just been sentenced to 23 years in jail for the killing.

:19:16.:19:21.

In a moment we'll speak to William Lound's mother who,

:19:22.:19:25.

remarkably doesn't blame Arnold but blames the system that

:19:26.:19:27.

released him from hospital despite him saying he couldn't cope.

:19:28.:19:32.

First, here are the details of the case - some of

:19:33.:19:35.

Lee Arnold had 19 previous convictions before he

:19:36.:19:38.

He had a history of stabbing and killing cats and dogs.

:19:39.:19:45.

In prison, he took a fellow inmate hostage at knife-point.

:19:46.:19:49.

Arnold had spent much of his adult life in and out of mental health

:19:50.:19:52.

units in prisons and had been diagnosed with

:19:53.:19:54.

When he was last released from hospital he told doctors he was too

:19:55.:20:02.

In February, he strangled and stabbed student William Lound

:20:03.:20:06.

at his halls of residence in Salford in what the judge called

:20:07.:20:09.

Adding it was brutal, premeditated and sustained.

:20:10.:20:16.

The court heard that William was gay and sometimes cross-dressed.

:20:17.:20:21.

Arnold had referred to him as a weirdo and a freak.

:20:22.:20:24.

William had asked Arnold, why are you doing this, why me?

:20:25.:20:27.

Arnold wrote on his bedroom wall after the killing,

:20:28.:20:29.

In June, William's sister Virginia was found dead at the corner shop

:20:30.:20:35.

Her family believe she ended her life because of William's murder.

:20:36.:20:41.

Let's talk now to William and Virginia's mother, Maureen Lound.

:20:42.:20:48.

Good morning. Thank you for talking to us. What you have experienced is

:20:49.:20:56.

absolutely unimaginable. How are you getting through each day? I'm very

:20:57.:21:01.

fortunate with the fact that I am a committed Christian and that helps

:21:02.:21:05.

me very much because I don't really know how anybody could cope with

:21:06.:21:08.

this on their own. Such horrendous events. You do not think they will

:21:09.:21:14.

happen to you, there will happen to somebody else. Unfortunately, it did

:21:15.:21:20.

happen to me. What did you learn about the mental state of Lee Arnold

:21:21.:21:25.

during his court case? I discovered he had been in and out of mental

:21:26.:21:33.

institutions and prison since he was a teenager. And he went to a school

:21:34.:21:40.

for children with emotional and behavioural difficulties, it was a

:21:41.:21:47.

boarding school, he was adopted as a three-year-old, having been abused

:21:48.:21:51.

as a very young child. So he did not really have much of a chance in

:21:52.:21:58.

life. Compared with the start of my children hand in life. He was

:21:59.:22:05.

released from hospital around 2014, even though, as you learned in the

:22:06.:22:12.

court case, he said to doctors he was much too institutionalised to

:22:13.:22:15.

leave. What did you take that to mean? That he was too ill. He was

:22:16.:22:26.

not really well at all. They released him. But I think the

:22:27.:22:33.

release was down to money, in actual fact, because it costs a lot of

:22:34.:22:38.

money to maintain people. Or to supervise them in the community? To

:22:39.:22:43.

maintain them in hospital, in Ashworth, it must cost a fortune.

:22:44.:22:47.

With the amount of security at treatment that they are given. The

:22:48.:22:53.

thing they do is release them back into the community, if possible, but

:22:54.:22:59.

I think sometimes that money drives them more than it should. I'm

:23:00.:23:05.

guessing you do not believe that a hospital would release somebody who

:23:06.:23:09.

they believe to be dangerous? Well, you do wonder whether they allowed

:23:10.:23:16.

the financial aspect to override other considerations. Remarkably,

:23:17.:23:24.

you do not blame Lee Arnold from what happened to your family? No, I

:23:25.:23:29.

do not. I blame the system that allowed it to happen because of the

:23:30.:23:34.

system had been a bit more generously supported, it may not

:23:35.:23:42.

have happened. Because what annoyed me, when they released him, into the

:23:43.:23:55.

first stage treatment in a hostel, to a hospital in Manchester which

:23:56.:24:00.

was less secure than Ashworth, and then into the hostel, but when his

:24:01.:24:03.

behaviour was too violent for the hostel, instead of thinking, maybe

:24:04.:24:11.

he is not all right, maybe we will take him back into some sort of

:24:12.:24:14.

custodial care, they did not. They put him the street. Which, to my

:24:15.:24:21.

mind, is mind-boggling. That they could even think of that. And then,

:24:22.:24:30.

of course, I believe he went to hospital and he said, he was going,

:24:31.:24:38.

he was hearing voices and he was going to kill somebody. The hospital

:24:39.:24:42.

patted him on the head and said, you will be OK and go away. After that,

:24:43.:24:47.

he beat up some poor bloke with a house brick and this man did not

:24:48.:24:53.

report it until after Lee Arnold had been arrested. And when he had been

:24:54.:25:02.

arrested, he told them about what he had done. They find him down

:25:03.:25:07.

alleyways starving cats and dogs with a knife. He was actually on

:25:08.:25:14.

bail for some sort of violent crime, threatening somebody with a knife or

:25:15.:25:19.

something, and the police lost him in the system somehow. They are

:25:20.:25:22.

doing an investigation into it, Greater Manchester Police, but...

:25:23.:25:31.

That does not solve the problem. How did they lose him? A dangerous

:25:32.:25:37.

schizophrenic with a history of violence, they put him out onto the

:25:38.:25:41.

street and the body was checking on him. He was not medicated, which

:25:42.:25:46.

made him extremely dangerous. Why did it happen? It should not have

:25:47.:25:51.

happened. Because the system failed. And the failure of the system cost

:25:52.:25:56.

my son his life and as a consequence of that, my daughter. Are you clear

:25:57.:26:05.

in your head that your daughter took her own life because she could not

:26:06.:26:08.

cope with the fact that her brother had been taken from you? Yes. Can I

:26:09.:26:19.

tell you the story about the cow? Apparently, in the dairy industry,

:26:20.:26:26.

whether cow drops its calve, they leave it with the for 24 hours and

:26:27.:26:31.

then they take it away to be hand reared. Usually, happens is the cow

:26:32.:26:39.

will cry pitifully for 24 hours and then just forgets that it ever had a

:26:40.:26:44.

calve and it goes back to normal. But occasionally one of them just

:26:45.:26:48.

lies down and ties and there is nothing they can do. No matter what

:26:49.:26:53.

interventions they make, it will die. He formally -- the farmer will

:26:54.:26:58.

normally put it out of its misery, that is what happened with Virginia,

:26:59.:27:03.

she could not cope, her father died in 2009 and then her brother, I

:27:04.:27:07.

think she could not handle it. Did you know she was... Did she say she

:27:08.:27:13.

was struggling? Nobody knew anything. She seemed very happy, all

:27:14.:27:18.

you see she was very upset when it first happened. At the funeral and

:27:19.:27:24.

whatnot. You thought she was coping? Everybody that she was coping.

:27:25.:27:29.

Nobody knew, because some of the people offered to help, a friend of

:27:30.:27:35.

mine was a psychiatric nurse. Another man who was a customer in

:27:36.:27:42.

the shop was a listener at the jail, listening to people who were

:27:43.:27:46.

thinking of committing suicide. And he had spoken to her the day before

:27:47.:27:50.

and she never said anything to anybody. Can I ask you, what do you

:27:51.:27:58.

want to happen or change to try to make sure what has happened to your

:27:59.:28:01.

family does not happen to anybody else? When people with serious

:28:02.:28:08.

psychiatric conditions, especially if they are violent, are released

:28:09.:28:13.

from an institution, that they are much more carefully monitored. And

:28:14.:28:19.

that there is, I believe there is some sort of withdrawal, whereby if

:28:20.:28:24.

they do misbehave, they don't take their drugs and they misbehave in

:28:25.:28:31.

the environment they are in, then they are immediately taken back into

:28:32.:28:37.

some sort of custodial care. So that, if they present a danger...

:28:38.:28:42.

There is a minority of people who will always present a danger because

:28:43.:28:46.

of their psychiatric condition. There was nothing we can do about

:28:47.:28:50.

that but we have to make sure they are safe and everybody else is safe

:28:51.:28:55.

because we do not know how many other Lee Arnolds are walking the

:28:56.:28:59.

streets of every town and city in the country. You just do not know

:29:00.:29:03.

who they are. Thank you very much for coming to the programme. Thank

:29:04.:29:05.

you. The Department of Health has

:29:06.:29:07.

sent us a statement, saying: We have increased mental

:29:08.:29:09.

health funding to ?11.7 billion and more funding

:29:10.:29:12.

is coming on stream. We have already made ?400 million

:29:13.:29:15.

available for crisis resolution and home treatment teams

:29:16.:29:18.

which will help prevent people being admitted as inpatients

:29:19.:29:22.

when they can be better cared Still to come: Drunkorexia -

:29:23.:29:24.

heard of it? The phrase describes people who skip

:29:25.:29:34.

food to save on calories so they can Research suggests almost half

:29:35.:29:38.

of young people may have done it and I will be

:29:39.:29:41.

speaking to some of them. And with the Premier League kicking

:29:42.:29:46.

off this weekend, we'll talk to two of Leicester City's biggest

:29:47.:29:49.

supporters about their hopes Here's Maxine Mahwinney

:29:50.:29:51.

the BBC Newsroom, with Team GB have won two more

:29:52.:30:03.

silver medals in the pool In the early hours of this morning,

:30:04.:30:08.

Siobhan-Marie O'Connor took silver The 20 year old finished just three

:30:09.:30:12.

tenths of a second behind Hungarian world champion Katinka Hosszu,

:30:13.:30:16.

who herself set an Olympic record. Minutes later, Team GB

:30:17.:30:25.

collected its second Stephen Milne, Duncan Scott,

:30:26.:30:27.

Dan Wallace and James Guy took the medal in the 4-by-200

:30:28.:30:30.

metre freestyle relay. They were beaten by the US team,

:30:31.:30:35.

which included Michael Phelps - who won his second gold medal

:30:36.:30:38.

of the night. He's now won 21 golds

:30:39.:30:40.

in four separate Games. Eurostar workers are due to take

:30:41.:30:49.

strike action this month, including Eurostar says it will provide a good

:30:50.:31:06.

service by making small changes. The stoppage by RMT staff runs from

:31:07.:31:10.

Friday to Monday with a further three days of action over the bank

:31:11.:31:15.

holiday weekend from Auger test -- August the 22nd.

:31:16.:31:18.

It is a dispute over rosters and work-life balance. Our members have

:31:19.:31:25.

got long-standing problems over work-life balance and how they have

:31:26.:31:29.

got very unsociable rostering patterns. It is not a new issue,

:31:30.:31:33.

they have been trying to resolve it for a considerable period of time

:31:34.:31:36.

now and they just got frustrated at the lack of response and progress

:31:37.:31:40.

from their employer. We balloted for action and got in the large majority

:31:41.:31:45.

in favour of industrial action and we informed the employee a week or

:31:46.:31:48.

so ago the action is going to take place. Unfortunately, we have not

:31:49.:31:56.

had much discussion to see if we can get resolution. We are desperate to

:31:57.:31:58.

get resolution but if we can't, then the action goes ahead.

:31:59.:32:00.

The RMT Union has said it's prepared to suspend a five-day strike

:32:01.:32:03.

by Southern Rail staff tomorrow and on Friday, if the company

:32:04.:32:05.

agrees to urgent talks without pre-conditions.

:32:06.:32:09.

Rail passengers have been suffering severe disruption

:32:10.:32:11.

because of the strike over the role of conductors.

:32:12.:32:13.

Southern says it's not prepared to talk to the union,

:32:14.:32:16.

unless it is willing to discuss its reform plans.

:32:17.:32:18.

Hospital managers are considering shutting an Accident and Emergency

:32:19.:32:20.

department at night, because of a severe

:32:21.:32:22.

United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust has said it may cut

:32:23.:32:27.

opening hours at Grantham and District Hospital in order

:32:28.:32:29.

The Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has lots to

:32:30.:32:42.

clarify controversial remarks which is Democrat opponents say amount to

:32:43.:32:47.

an incitement of violence against Hillary Clinton. He appeared to

:32:48.:32:50.

suggest gun owners could use violence to prevent Mrs Clinton from

:32:51.:32:53.

plans to take away their rights to bear arms. His campaign team said he

:32:54.:32:58.

was just encouraging gun advocates to vote.

:32:59.:33:00.

That's a summary of the latest BBC News.

:33:01.:33:02.

Thank you very much. This message on Twitter, an amazing woman, Maureen,

:33:03.:33:16.

raising vital issues -- permit such heartbreak.

:33:17.:33:17.

Thank you. If you are in bed last night, thinking, we have missed out

:33:18.:33:27.

on medals in the women's gymnastics and diving, it came good in the

:33:28.:33:31.

swimming pool in the early hours, Siobhan-Marie O'Connor winning

:33:32.:33:39.

silver in the women's race, setting a British record. Still with ongoing

:33:40.:33:43.

health problems and she missed out on the Gold medal by three tenths of

:33:44.:33:47.

a second, winning a silver. And the success did not end there, the men's

:33:48.:33:56.

for by -- freestyle team also won a silver medal, Stephen Milne, Duncan

:33:57.:33:58.

Scott, Dan Wallace and James Guy anchored the team home on the final

:33:59.:34:02.

leg finishing just behind the USA. Especially sweet for James Guy as he

:34:03.:34:07.

narrowly missed out on a Bronze in the individual event earlier in the

:34:08.:34:11.

Games. Another astonishing night for this guy, Michael Phelps, the

:34:12.:34:16.

world's greatest Olympian, winning his 21st medal of his career.

:34:17.:34:21.

Anchoring the last leg home in that relay. Taking Gold before that in

:34:22.:34:26.

the men's 200 metres butterfly. Incredible Olympian, the world's

:34:27.:34:31.

best. That is a wrap-up of the Olympics stories. We will look ahead

:34:32.:34:35.

to the big events also later. Thank you very much.

:34:36.:34:40.

We will discuss new research later suggesting two thirds of women had

:34:41.:34:46.

been sexually harassed at work. If that has happened to you, tell us

:34:47.:34:50.

what happened and what impact it had and whether you could do anything

:34:51.:34:53.

about it and whether you could say anything to your boss or it was The

:34:54.:34:58.

Boss doing the harassing. Interesting to hear your

:34:59.:35:01.

experiences. I would like to get you on the programme to talk to you

:35:02.:35:05.

after ten o'clock so do get in touch.

:35:06.:35:06.

As far as sporting comebacks go, there are none quite as remarkable

:35:07.:35:09.

as that of Team GB's horse rider William Fox-Pitt.

:35:10.:35:14.

Just nine months ago, he was in an induced coma for two

:35:15.:35:18.

weeks after falling off his horse in France.

:35:19.:35:20.

He suffered severe head trauma in the fall and was partially blind

:35:21.:35:22.

Now, the two-time silver medalist is in Rio taking part

:35:23.:35:27.

Even competing is an incredible achievement for the 47 year old but,

:35:28.:35:32.

sadly, Team GB haven't won a medal at these Games,

:35:33.:35:35.

after four successive Olympics finishing on the podium.

:35:36.:35:43.

Last week, William Fox Pitt said he was just happy to be at the Games.

:35:44.:35:47.

Other people thought, oh, God, no, I can't do Rio, surely?

:35:48.:35:50.

And certainly, my family have put up with an awful lot and really

:35:51.:35:54.

supported me to get me back being here.

:35:55.:35:57.

I'm back on form and I've got a good horse.

:35:58.:36:07.

I've had so much help getting me back.

:36:08.:36:09.

I've had more help than you could imagine.

:36:10.:36:24.

We will talk to his wife in a moment. Just having some technical

:36:25.:36:34.

problems so we will keep trying. If you has watched some of the venues,

:36:35.:36:39.

you may have noticed a lot of empty seats. We have been trying to find

:36:40.:36:41.

out why. All of these spectators will have

:36:42.:37:05.

taken at least two bus or train journeys, walked for a mile and now

:37:06.:37:09.

they are in a huge queue just to get into the park before they can even

:37:10.:37:14.

see any sport. The problem is that many of these sports, Rugby sevens

:37:15.:37:20.

and hockey, not played in Brazil so there is little enthusiasm. And even

:37:21.:37:24.

now at the business and of the tournament, at the semifinal and

:37:25.:37:28.

final stages, the standard of play being really high, the stadiums are

:37:29.:37:30.

almost completely empty. We have not sold 84% of available

:37:31.:37:50.

tickets so far. So as Brazilians, we are late buyers so you can see a lot

:37:51.:37:58.

now of momentum on our website. They are given to corporate sponsors

:37:59.:38:04.

or the people who do not show up. And I think that is a problem at

:38:05.:38:11.

every Olympics. They can't figure out the might be sold but the people

:38:12.:38:12.

and there. So who are the ones to watch

:38:13.:38:15.

during today's Games? Sally Nugent has the rundown

:38:16.:38:18.

of the highlights. The first of the borrowing medals

:38:19.:38:31.

will be decided later with Team GB's men competing in the quadruple

:38:32.:38:38.

sculls at Rio's Lagoa Stadium. The cyclists are back in action with the

:38:39.:38:42.

women and men's individual time trial. After missing out in the Road

:38:43.:38:46.

Race, Chris Froome is going for Gold again, aiming to better his Bronze

:38:47.:38:53.

at London 2012. And Emma Pooley is also hoping for a podium finish.

:38:54.:38:58.

Commonwealth champions Jack Law and Chris Mears are diving in the men's

:38:59.:39:03.

three metres synchronised. Team GB gymnasts narrowly missed out on

:39:04.:39:07.

Bronze in the men's team final but Max Whitlock is aiming to win

:39:08.:39:12.

Britain's first gymnastics title in the individual title tonight. He is

:39:13.:39:17.

up against team-mate Nile Wilson for a medal. And the shooting continues

:39:18.:39:22.

today with World Champion medallists Tim Neale and Steve Scott competing

:39:23.:39:24.

in the men's double trap. The best coverage on the BBC, go to

:39:25.:39:38.

the BBC website, BBC sport especially, and there is everything

:39:39.:39:42.

you need to know about every single event so do get more information.

:39:43.:39:48.

Let's try and talk to the wife of William Fox Pitt. She has just gone!

:39:49.:40:00.

We will keep trying. It's been revealed that nearly

:40:01.:40:03.

two-thirds of women aged 18 to 24 have experienced sexual harassment

:40:04.:40:07.

in the workplace. Do tell us your own experiences, we

:40:08.:40:18.

would like to hear after ten o'clock and we will have people in the

:40:19.:40:22.

studio who will give their experiences. Get in touch in the

:40:23.:40:29.

usual way. Let's try and talk to all is one more time. How are you? No.

:40:30.:40:38.

That is not going to work. Really sorry. Hello! You can hear me!

:40:39.:40:49.

Hello! No, it keeps freezing. I apologise, for a second time. I may

:40:50.:40:52.

have to apologise for a third time, but I will be doing it!

:40:53.:40:55.

In 2015, 31% of 18-year-olds in England were accepted

:40:56.:40:58.

into a university place - the highest level ever recorded.

:40:59.:41:00.

However, one third of millennials - people reaching young adulthood

:41:01.:41:03.

in the year 2000 - that went to University now regret

:41:04.:41:06.

doing so because of the debt they have been saddled with.

:41:07.:41:08.

Research out today suggests that 49% of 18 to 35-year-olds believe

:41:09.:41:11.

they could have got to where they are now without going to uni.

:41:12.:41:14.

A leading debt charity yesterday said this year's graduates

:41:15.:41:16.

will owe at least ?41,000 by the time they start paying

:41:17.:41:19.

Yet add to that today's National Student Survey,

:41:20.:41:36.

which points to 86% of respondents saying they were satisfied overall

:41:37.:41:38.

Lets talk now to Ubaka Allanah, who regrets studying for a degree

:41:39.:41:44.

Carl Reader, who left school at 16 and now runs

:41:45.:41:51.

Len Shackleton, former Dean of the Business School

:41:52.:41:56.

at Westminster University and now Professor of Economics

:41:57.:41:58.

In Liverpool, we have Ellis Palmer, who graduated in July

:41:59.:42:03.

From Leeds, Claire Young, a former Apprentice candidate

:42:04.:42:10.

Alice, congratulations on your degree. Thank you very much. In

:42:11.:42:23.

terms of the debt, how do you rationalise it? How'd you

:42:24.:42:29.

rationalise it? I think a lot of people say, we need the degree to go

:42:30.:42:33.

out and get a job. For a lot of people, that is the case, they can

:42:34.:42:37.

get a job with their degree. For some people, it might be better to

:42:38.:42:43.

do so in a six-year degree and work at the same time. My degree is four

:42:44.:42:49.

years, I have spent two years living in Birmingham. A year in Barcelona

:42:50.:42:53.

and this year, I have been between Liverpool and Birmingham and London,

:42:54.:42:57.

working and studying. That is the best way for a what people to pay

:42:58.:43:01.

off their student debt as they do it. It is just incredibly expensive

:43:02.:43:05.

and you cannot rationalise it. Unless you say there is a graduate

:43:06.:43:12.

premium. Which I think exists for young people these days. Does it

:43:13.:43:15.

weigh on new order you think, I would just get a job and when I

:43:16.:43:20.

start earning ?21,000, and will pay back a bit each month? That is the

:43:21.:43:25.

way it goes. It is not immediate. You start paying back when you start

:43:26.:43:31.

earning ?21,000. The repayment is something like ?6 per week and is

:43:32.:43:35.

quite small. But part of that is the problem because it gets dragged on

:43:36.:43:40.

and on. There is no easy way to say, I want to pay off my student loan.

:43:41.:43:44.

If you pay off your student loan in one go -- in one go when you get

:43:45.:43:49.

money, you get fined by the government to pay off that loan. But

:43:50.:43:56.

after 30 years, if you have not paid it back, it gets written off. Yes,

:43:57.:44:03.

or often, if you are outside the UK longer than five years, certainly

:44:04.:44:10.

outside of the European Union, you do not have to pay it back if you

:44:11.:44:14.

spent five years working in another country. Let me bring in Ubaka. Do

:44:15.:44:18.

you really regret getting a degree? I do enjoy my time at university but

:44:19.:44:36.

I felt that I could have, I did software engineering, I felt I would

:44:37.:44:41.

have learned faster with hands-on experience. You know that now?

:44:42.:44:48.

Because people I know that did not go to university and a software

:44:49.:44:54.

engineers and they are ahead, more than most people who went to

:44:55.:44:59.

university. I think that it can slow you down. Obviously, you have as

:45:00.:45:05.

well how much? Over ?18,000. I pay back ?21 per month. Your

:45:06.:45:29.

salary is about ?26,000? Is it OK to pay back ?5 every week? You have to

:45:30.:45:36.

do it. It is something I would rather not do. But you did get the

:45:37.:45:47.

loan. Len Shackleton, you're a professor at the University of

:45:48.:45:51.

Buckingham. What does that make you feel like, hearing people regret

:45:52.:45:56.

going to university? I think on average people do better when they

:45:57.:46:00.

go to university. I think there was a problem, there is a tale of people

:46:01.:46:06.

who will not get any significant benefit from university and

:46:07.:46:08.

universities could be more honest about this. They tend to Hayes this.

:46:09.:46:17.

In what we? They should say that it depends very much on what kind of

:46:18.:46:20.

degree you are doing, how much effort you put into it, the quality

:46:21.:46:27.

of the degree. It is not a magic ticket to a well-paid career. That

:46:28.:46:29.

is something which needs to be reinforced. We can speak to Claire

:46:30.:46:37.

Young. What do you think about so many millennials, who became adults

:46:38.:46:41.

in 2000, regretting going to university? As somebody who went to

:46:42.:46:47.

university, I have a science degree from Bristol, I thoroughly enjoyed

:46:48.:46:51.

it and it would never have got my first job that that degree, it was a

:46:52.:46:55.

requirement to even download the application. I find it frustrating

:46:56.:46:59.

and I work in schools with young people now and I think it is so

:47:00.:47:03.

important that careers advice is available and they get enough about

:47:04.:47:08.

all options, university, apprenticeships, joining the career

:47:09.:47:14.

ladder straightaway. That magic ticket may have existed when I

:47:15.:47:19.

graduated in 2001, if you had a good degree, you got a good job. But that

:47:20.:47:23.

magic ticket, that job guarantee does not exist any more so if you

:47:24.:47:27.

are choosing to go to university, you have to think about the cost of

:47:28.:47:32.

it, if it is right for you and if you will benefit. We can bring in

:47:33.:47:38.

Sorana Vieru. Vice President of higher education at the National

:47:39.:47:42.

Union of Students. Hello. Do you think people who apply really do

:47:43.:47:47.

think hard enough about the type of degree, as Len Shackleton said, that

:47:48.:47:52.

they will have to work hard, some degrees are better than others?

:47:53.:47:56.

There are many complex factors going into the decision-making before

:47:57.:47:59.

going to university and getting a well-paid job is only one of those.

:48:00.:48:03.

People go to university because they want to experience student life and

:48:04.:48:08.

make friends and their like a particular university or subject. Or

:48:09.:48:12.

simply they want to get away from home, that is a reality. The choices

:48:13.:48:18.

for applicants are getting more nuanced as the price rises. And as

:48:19.:48:23.

it rises, undergraduates know they will come out with debt and that

:48:24.:48:30.

does not stop it having an impact on them? Particularly their mental

:48:31.:48:33.

health whenever they graduate? And also higher education is like

:48:34.:48:39.

electricity, if the electricity company will trouble prices, you are

:48:40.:48:44.

not going to turn the lights on, higher education can open so many

:48:45.:48:48.

opportunities, you cannot turn your back on it. Tell us about your

:48:49.:48:55.

experience. I left school at 16, in 1987 was unheard of. I fell into a

:48:56.:49:02.

youth training scheme, as a hairdresser, it did not go well but

:49:03.:49:06.

I really wanted to actually burn on the job and learn how to do it

:49:07.:49:12.

rather than going to university for something that was not really suited

:49:13.:49:18.

to me. -- 1997. Because I am not very academic by nature. And it has

:49:19.:49:23.

turned out OK, everybody has their own journey, but I have no regrets.

:49:24.:49:28.

Now, I am advising a lot of businesses how to run, I run a

:49:29.:49:33.

successful accountancy firm and coaching from. You have to have

:49:34.:49:38.

qualifications for accountancy so you did have further training and

:49:39.:49:42.

education? On-the-job training, starting at the bare-bones, but

:49:43.:49:48.

working through that I could earn a wage whilst learning the trade.

:49:49.:49:54.

Listen to some of these e-mails and texts from people. Adam, I spent

:49:55.:50:00.

over ?20,000 over nine years to complete a PHD. I can't get an

:50:01.:50:04.

interview for love nor money and I am still doing the same job I was

:50:05.:50:09.

doing before I started. Lauren is currently studying geography at

:50:10.:50:12.

Derby University and my modules require me to be at university for

:50:13.:50:18.

11 hours every week. And I am paying ?9,000 a year. I don't regret going

:50:19.:50:22.

to university, I think we're being taken advantage of on a mass scale.

:50:23.:50:29.

My education in total will amass a debt of ?38,000 and that is like the

:50:30.:50:33.

added interest. I cannot comprehend why they would require so much in

:50:34.:50:40.

tuition fees. Len Shackleton? There is a real case there. Our

:50:41.:50:44.

universities are very badly organised, we work very largely on a

:50:45.:50:50.

three term year. Large chunks of the year are on holiday and so forth and

:50:51.:50:55.

my own university at Buckingham is different, there is a non-2-year

:50:56.:51:00.

degree, there are four terms every year. I am seeing students today and

:51:01.:51:05.

this is August. Universities should be more concerned with the whole

:51:06.:51:09.

package they give to students and the opportunities they give to

:51:10.:51:12.

students to progress quickly and cheaply. At the moment, a lot of the

:51:13.:51:19.

money universities get his cross subsidising research of doubtful

:51:20.:51:23.

merit in many cases and students are not really getting value for what

:51:24.:51:32.

they pay for. Kevin says university is not for all, it seems to be a

:51:33.:51:35.

mantra for union -- for politicians to say that you will only earn more

:51:36.:51:39.

money if you have a degree. Simon says he can see why many millennials

:51:40.:51:47.

Mike regret this, Laura on Facebook graduated in 2010 and she could turn

:51:48.:51:52.

back time, she would. One of my other siblings did not go to

:51:53.:51:56.

university and they have climbed the career ladder quicker than myself

:51:57.:52:00.

and both bought their first house three years ago. I am always playing

:52:01.:52:04.

catch-up and lagging behind because I want to university. I earn less

:52:05.:52:09.

and struggle more to get a mortgage because the student loan counts

:52:10.:52:12.

against you on your credit rating. It took a long time for me to get a

:52:13.:52:17.

job in my chosen field and even then I degree is not necessary. I feel

:52:18.:52:22.

like I have wasted three years of my life, I studied hard, I held down a

:52:23.:52:26.

job and committed 40 miles every day to go to university. The only thing

:52:27.:52:31.

I feel I got out of it was friends. Ellis, can you relate? Oftentimes it

:52:32.:52:37.

is about having a diversity of rates available to get that magic ticket

:52:38.:52:41.

and a lot of people seem to think university is the one rich to

:52:42.:52:45.

getting the magic ticket and I don't think it is, more opportunities need

:52:46.:52:48.

to be given to young people to go out there and study whilst holding

:52:49.:52:53.

down work opportunities. One of the things I find quite useful was I was

:52:54.:53:01.

studying 16 hours every week for 18 weeks every semester of the classes

:53:02.:53:05.

were either morning or afternoon rest in the UK the classes are

:53:06.:53:10.

spread out and there is no general sense, no sense that you can plan

:53:11.:53:15.

your life and hold down a job whilst studying because the hours are often

:53:16.:53:19.

very irregular or at least they wear at my university. Clare, what is

:53:20.:53:24.

your advice to people who might looked edgy as a successful

:53:25.:53:28.

businesswoman, you got that degree, you say you would not have got your

:53:29.:53:34.

first job without it. What is your advice to people considering whether

:53:35.:53:37.

to go to university? I work with a lot of your 11 and sixth form

:53:38.:53:41.

students and I say that success comes from choice, but your options,

:53:42.:53:47.

be proactive, get careers advice and is still lots of snobbery about

:53:48.:53:51.

career options outside university and some schools, if you mention

:53:52.:53:56.

apprenticeship, there is and gasps. Why do people act shocked? A long

:53:57.:54:06.

time ago, when polytechnics moved to universities and became more

:54:07.:54:08.

accessible for people who many did not particularly like academia, they

:54:09.:54:14.

could all of a sudden having -- have the status of going to university

:54:15.:54:18.

and there seems to be this split between smart, aspirational people

:54:19.:54:21.

who went to university and others who are probably not good enough who

:54:22.:54:25.

did other things whereas that is completely wrong. Different courses

:54:26.:54:31.

for different horses, people are very practical and vocationally

:54:32.:54:36.

lead, I cannot fix but I am good at studying reading. It is important

:54:37.:54:40.

for young people to get good, objective careers advice and know

:54:41.:54:43.

the facts and figures before they sign up. Know what you're getting

:54:44.:54:47.

for your course and the fees and make a decision. Is it worth it?

:54:48.:54:53.

Most importantly, are you going to enjoy it? Thank you, all of you, for

:54:54.:54:55.

coming onto the programme. A hospital in Lincolnshire might

:54:56.:54:57.

shut an accident and emergency department at night in order to cope

:54:58.:55:02.

with a staffing crisis. United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS

:55:03.:55:05.

Trust said it is considering slashing opening hours at Grantham

:55:06.:55:07.

and District Hospital due Let's talk to our health

:55:08.:55:10.

editor, Hugh Pym. Hello. This seems quite dramatic?

:55:11.:55:27.

The trust has made clear that there is a serious problem in

:55:28.:55:32.

Lincolnshire, a shortage of doctors, there are not enough in terms of

:55:33.:55:35.

permanent staff, senior and junior doctors and they cannot get enough

:55:36.:55:39.

people coming into the temporary placements. And I think the cost of

:55:40.:55:45.

agency bills is probably a factor. They have three sites at Boston,

:55:46.:55:49.

Lincoln and Grantham and they will keep Lincoln and Boston 24 hours

:55:50.:55:53.

with A but they are seriously considering closing Grantham

:55:54.:55:58.

overnight. And this is indicative of a wider problem and not enough

:55:59.:56:02.

doctors can cope with patient demand. The government says it is

:56:03.:56:06.

seeing recruitment of more doctors coming through in years to come. Why

:56:07.:56:11.

is there any issue with recruitment of doctors in this country? It is

:56:12.:56:15.

more of that patient demand has outstripped supply and it is that

:56:16.:56:19.

mismatch between what was planned five years ago and what the NHS

:56:20.:56:23.

needs right now. We had a hospital in Lancashire trolley which said it

:56:24.:56:28.

would have to close A in April because of staff problems, with

:56:29.:56:33.

doctors, so that raised the issue. It has to be said that the

:56:34.:56:40.

regulator, it says it is going to work very closely with these

:56:41.:56:44.

hospitals to deal with what it calls a temporary problem but I think

:56:45.:56:47.

there is a wider issue with A working flat out across the country

:56:48.:56:52.

although many are working 24 hours, seven days a week and doing a very

:56:53.:56:58.

good job. If they go ahead, what will it mean for the patients? The

:56:59.:57:02.

trust says it will be better for patients because it is realistic,

:57:03.:57:07.

they will go to the two A rather than three of them but that means a

:57:08.:57:10.

longer journey if you are in Grantham. In an emergency you will

:57:11.:57:15.

be got to A quickly and there must be questions over whether that can

:57:16.:57:18.

be delivered but certainly they are doing all they can to ensure patient

:57:19.:57:21.

safety continues. Thank you very much.

Let's get the latest weather update with Tomasz.

:58:07.:58:11.

Thank you. It was rather fresh this morning. Really chilly across parts

:58:12.:58:21.

of the country and we have had clear skies for a couple of nights. A

:58:22.:58:27.

perfect opportunity to capture some shooting stars, not literally, but

:58:28.:58:33.

this is the Perseid meteor shower, the pig is coming up in the next

:58:34.:58:39.

couple of days, it has lasted for a few days. Fortunately, we are going

:58:40.:58:43.

to lose some of those clear skies tonight. Some areas will have clear

:58:44.:58:47.

weather but for the next couple of nights it will be pretty overcast

:58:48.:58:52.

and today we have some rain on the way across north-western areas. The

:58:53.:58:57.

general message for the rest of this morning and the afternoon is for the

:58:58.:59:02.

Skystrater and cloudier and cloudy across western areas until we get

:59:03.:59:06.

some rain across West Wales, Randy Irish Sea and the north-west but the

:59:07.:59:09.

southern and eastern areas are hanging onto the sunshine, and it

:59:10.:59:15.

looks like it shall stay dry across East Anglia and the south-east for

:59:16.:59:18.

most the day whilst we get the rain piling into Scotland. May well be a

:59:19.:59:23.

story across western Scotland in the coming days as I was sure you.

:59:24.:59:30.

Tonight, clear skies are gone, it is overcast, muggy, moist air coming

:59:31.:59:35.

our way so grey skies all over the place. 14 degrees of outbreaks of

:59:36.:59:39.

rain and tomorrow, we have the weather fronts in the North and

:59:40.:59:44.

:59:45.:59:50.

south-western corner, Devon West and throughout Wales but notice many

:59:51.:59:53.

eastern and northern areas hanging on to the cloud. I suspect that

:59:54.:59:57.

further north, the clouds will break up a little bit in the afternoon. 23

:00:05.:00:09.

there could be quite a lot of it, I slipped areas could see 100

The cross-Channel Eurostar service is to be hit by seven

days of strike action, starting this coming weekend.

The stoppage by the RMT staff runs from Friday to Monday,

Our members have got long-standing problems over work-life balance

and how they have got very unsociable rostering patterns.

It's not a new issue, they have been trying to resolve it

for a considerable period of time now and they just got frustrated

:02:04.:02:06.

at the lack of response and progress from their employer.

:02:07.:02:09.

We balloted for action and got a large majority in favour

:02:10.:02:11.

of industrial action and we informed the employer a week

:02:12.:02:14.

or so ago that the action is going to take place.

:02:15.:02:17.

Unfortunately, we haven't had much discussion to see

:02:18.:02:19.

We are desperate to get resolution but, if we can't,

:10:35.:10:47.

in the pool. Olympic swimming coach Sean Kellie, who has coached the

:10:48.:10:51.

country's top swimmers, joins me. London 2012, Team GB did not do

:10:52.:10:57.

especially well, three medals, no Gold medals. But we have one Gold

:10:58.:11:01.

medal and three swimmers, significant improvement, what has

:11:02.:11:06.

changed? The reality is the swimmers are swimming quicker than they did

:11:07.:11:10.

at the trials. At the GB trials in 2012, the swimmers did not move it

:11:11.:11:15.

on when it got to London. And in Rio, they have stepped up their

:11:16.:11:19.

performances and done best times and that is all you need to do at the

:11:20.:11:23.

Olympics. Is the pressure off? It is an Olympics but the spotlights in

:11:24.:11:27.

the London must be different to competing in Brazil. There has been

:11:28.:11:31.

an effort by the management of the team to take the pressure away from

:11:32.:11:34.

the swimmers and play down the trials, played under preparation.

:11:35.:11:38.

Keep the water is nice and calm in the lead-up to the Games. And this

:11:39.:11:42.

is the result. Let's talk about Siobhan-Marie O'Connor and her

:11:43.:11:46.

success. Made even more notable because she has some ongoing health

:11:47.:11:51.

problems, which probably affect her training. So to win a silver medal,

:11:52.:11:57.

narrowly missing out on Gold, is impressive. Amazing and the way she

:11:58.:12:00.

came back on the freestyle shows how she has moved on have training this

:12:01.:12:05.

season. She has had a consistent season. A little less illness

:12:06.:12:12.

playing a part in her preparation and she is consistently able to work

:12:13.:12:17.

hard and prepare for Rio. And the men's relay team anchored home by

:12:18.:12:22.

James Guy who missed out on a Bronze in the individual. He will be

:12:23.:12:27.

delighted. The way he came past the Japanese guy and the Australian, and

:12:28.:12:31.

it is always nice to go past an Australian! He will be delighted and

:12:32.:12:35.

he deserves that, he is a great guy. And you have to talk about Michael

:12:36.:12:39.

Phelps, the world's greatest Olympian, winning his 20th and 21st

:12:40.:12:45.

Gold medals over a remarkable career. Incredible. It was not that

:12:46.:12:50.

quick a time last night and it would have been beaten by Chad Le Clos if

:12:51.:12:54.

he got his best time. But Michael Phelps said to be others, you have

:12:55.:12:58.

to go past me, and they did not. He did not look tired in the relay,

:12:59.:13:02.

anchoring the US to the Gold medal after already getting Gold in the

:13:03.:13:07.

butterfly. I think he had one eye on James Guy and was relieved to

:13:08.:13:12.

finish. And James was closing on him. Any longer and we would have

:13:13.:13:16.

pipped him. Thank you. Fingers crossed for mum medal success on Day

:13:17.:13:22.

Five. A chance of medals in the men's and women's Road Race at

:13:23.:13:27.

around lunchtime, borrowing. And a time trial in the Road Race, it was

:13:28.:13:34.

last weekend. And the man -- and the men's gymnastics, so plenty to look

:13:35.:13:36.

forward to. Good morning.

:13:37.:13:38.

New research published today shows that nearly two-thirds of women aged

:13:39.:13:40.

18-24 have experienced sexual harassment at work.

:13:41.:13:45.

The study - a joint project between the Trades Union Congress

:13:46.:13:47.

and The Everyday Sexism project- was carried out by YouGov,

:13:48.:13:50.

and its findings were based on responses from 1,533 women,

:13:51.:13:52.

Let's talk to Frances O'Grady, who is General Secretary of the TUC.

:13:53.:13:57.

And Laura Bates, who founded the Everyday Sexism Project,

:13:58.:13:59.

which invites women to share their own stories of sexist

:14:00.:14:02.

In Somerset, we also have Annie Ridout, Editor of online

:14:03.:14:08.

Before setting up her own business, she was the victim of sexual

:14:09.:14:12.

was working at an art gallery and river going to go to the pub and two

:14:13.:14:29.

The Mail trustees I was creating a guide with, one was a photographer,

:14:30.:14:34.

and he suggests that maybe my face should appear on the back of his

:14:35.:14:39.

brochure, which didn't think was necessary, I told them that and they

:14:40.:14:43.

ignored the land of the photographer said he was happy to take the photo

:14:44.:14:47.

and the other trustees suggested it perhaps could be a glamour shoot.

:14:48.:14:52.

Meaning what? Meaning that I could pose topless. Oh my gosh! How did

:14:53.:15:00.

that make you feel? It made me feel very embarrassed. And because they

:15:01.:15:06.

started laughing, I felt like they behave is taking it more seriously

:15:07.:15:10.

than I should add it was just a joke, a bit of banter. But they have

:15:11.:15:15.

this power over me because of authority figures in the sense that

:15:16.:15:18.

they have control over weather or not I kept my job, to some extent. I

:15:19.:15:24.

felt very small and disempowered and too young and not confident enough

:15:25.:15:32.

to say anything. It is a part of me that thinks, you don't want them to

:15:33.:15:36.

think you cannot take a joke? Definitely. There always is with

:15:37.:15:41.

these sexist jokes. And I think this is part of the issue and Laura Bates

:15:42.:15:46.

has been talking about this today. There is a great area and it is hard

:15:47.:15:50.

work out where that is but I think if a comment is made that is

:15:51.:15:54.

sexually inappropriate to a woman in the workplace and she feels

:15:55.:15:58.

uncomfortable, it is inappropriate and harassment. Did you know it was

:15:59.:16:02.

harassment back then or is it just looking back? I would not describe

:16:03.:16:08.

it as harassment, I probably told people what happened. If it ever

:16:09.:16:13.

came up. It is not something that has damaged my career my life but it

:16:14.:16:18.

was something that was inappropriate and at the time I did not stand up

:16:19.:16:21.

to them because they did not feel confident enough to. That is why it

:16:22.:16:25.

is important, this report has come out and people like me come forward

:16:26.:16:30.

and say this is happening and is not acceptable because younger women out

:16:31.:16:33.

there are going through the same thing and it should be happening.

:16:34.:16:38.

Let me bring in Laura and Francis, Annie says it is important people

:16:39.:16:44.

like her speak out. One viewer says, it is anonymous, she doesn't want to

:16:45.:16:47.

give her name, and that shows you, with regards to sexual harassment at

:16:48.:16:52.

work, inappropriate comments are made about me at least once a week

:16:53.:16:56.

and have been for the last six years, usually directly to me. I

:16:57.:17:01.

have been propositioned by married clouds at conferences offering to

:17:02.:17:05.

charge whatever I want at the bar back to his room number and meet him

:17:06.:17:09.

at his room in 30 minutes. I have raised numerous complaints with the

:17:10.:17:12.

HR department for the worst ones that have been told to keep quiet

:17:13.:17:19.

because it will affect the business. Unfortunately, that is not

:17:20.:17:21.

surprising, that will sound shocking to many viewers but these are the

:17:22.:17:24.

kind of stories we hear about on such a regular basis. In fact, we

:17:25.:17:28.

know from the results of the study coming out today that the woman who

:17:29.:17:34.

did reported, and they are in a minority, of those who did, three

:17:35.:17:38.

quarters said that nothing changed and a further 16% said they were

:17:39.:17:42.

treated worse as a result. There is a massive problem with this not

:17:43.:17:47.

being dealt with by employers, even when women say what is happening and

:17:48.:17:51.

understandably, many women, particularly those on zero hours or

:17:52.:17:57.

fixed term contracts, are terrified. What have people don't believe me or

:17:58.:18:04.

I'll lose my job. Are you shocked? Two thirds of getting dashed

:18:05.:18:08.

25-year-old woman harassed at work. We should all be shocked and Laura

:18:09.:18:14.

correctly points out that women on an insecure contract are further

:18:15.:18:20.

down the pecking order at work and they are more worried about speaking

:18:21.:18:23.

out and this point about feeling that you will not be taken

:18:24.:18:27.

seriously. And with good reason, in many instances. That is why I think

:18:28.:18:31.

one of the solutions has to be about tackling that power imbalance at

:18:32.:18:34.

work and one of the best ways of doing that in a practical way is to

:18:35.:18:38.

join a union because you will get the back-up and support of the union

:18:39.:18:44.

in taking a case. An e-mail says, I was sexually harassed in my first

:18:45.:18:49.

job by my boss who thought he was entitled to chat to -- to touch up

:18:50.:18:53.

his young female star. Also in my last job, crude sexual jobs,

:18:54.:18:58.

offering to pay for an abortion when I told my boss I was pregnant. This

:18:59.:19:03.

is normal working life in the UK, I am a normal, 45-year-old woman and

:19:04.:19:07.

this is endemic in society. This is without having being -- having to be

:19:08.:19:13.

paid less than male colleagues and putting up with workplace banter,

:19:14.:19:23.

which is just a pile of sexist clap. City 3% of young women, we have

:19:24.:19:27.

received about 20,000 testimonies over the past four years and it is

:19:28.:19:31.

endemic in the sense that it is across a range of workplaces. We

:19:32.:19:37.

hear from a woman in the city who was told to sit on her bosses lap

:19:38.:19:41.

and she once Christmas bonus and a woman in a video store that says

:19:42.:19:45.

when she grows up the ladder to get stock, her boss spanks her and a

:19:46.:19:49.

woman standing at a Christmas party surrounded by colleagues when her

:19:50.:19:52.

boss grabbed her breasts and everybody laughed, making her feel

:19:53.:19:56.

it was normal. A woman who said she was in her first ever surgery as a

:19:57.:20:01.

medical student, so excited, and the senior male surgeon made sexual

:20:02.:20:04.

innuendos about throughout the surgery. What was going to change?

:20:05.:20:14.

If men continue to do this, is it the mothers and sons, the way we

:20:15.:20:19.

bring up our sons? What will change? There are a couple of things. Bosses

:20:20.:20:24.

have to take responsibility and lots of them do. We have lots of good

:20:25.:20:29.

agreements with employers who have positive policies for respect at

:20:30.:20:32.

work, including cracking down on sexual harassment and making it

:20:33.:20:37.

clear. Most women want to stop but they would rather it never happened

:20:38.:20:40.

in the first place so if you can prevent this with a strong policy

:20:41.:20:45.

and training and back that up, that is good. Secondly, ultimately, women

:20:46.:20:48.

have got to know that they have rights. This is against the law. And

:20:49.:20:54.

they can force those rights. We are asking for the government to scrap

:20:55.:21:01.

the employment Tribunal fees. If you are experiencing sexual harassment

:21:02.:21:03.

and if you do take an employment tribunal claim, at the moment you

:21:04.:21:09.

have to fork out over ?1000. And even professional women would think

:21:10.:21:12.

twice about finding the kind of money. But it means that women --

:21:13.:21:18.

millions of women are priced out of justice so it is important that the

:21:19.:21:21.

government scraps as the so that women can get the protection and

:21:22.:21:25.

rights they should be entitled to. Have you experienced sexual

:21:26.:21:29.

harassment at work? I have in the past, like most women. Over half of

:21:30.:21:35.

women experience that. What happened? Like any woman, in fact,

:21:36.:21:40.

in many ways, it was a more common form of sexual harassment. There can

:21:41.:21:46.

be an appropriate attempts to touch but also a series of comments that

:21:47.:21:51.

might be other sexual nature but I think it is a power game. It is

:21:52.:21:55.

about making women feel small and embarrassed. Where do you stand? On

:21:56.:22:03.

this, just banter, issue? We have been told this from years. -- for

:22:04.:22:11.

years. But if the woman you are saying this to looks upset or

:22:12.:22:16.

distressed or embarrassed or frightened, then that joke probably

:22:17.:22:21.

isn't very funny. If it happened to you at work, what would you do right

:22:22.:22:25.

now compared to five years ago? It would not happen to me because I set

:22:26.:22:31.

up my own magazine so I didn't have to be put into these situations. But

:22:32.:22:38.

in any environment. I would stand up to whoever said it. I am older and

:22:39.:22:43.

feel more confident and I feel it is important to tell people when you

:22:44.:22:48.

feel uncomfortable. Otherwise they don't always know, those trustees

:22:49.:22:54.

were joking, they were not being malicious, it was inappropriate and

:22:55.:22:58.

a misguided comment. And perhaps if I had said that his inappropriate,

:22:59.:23:04.

or even if I said at a light-hearted way, and turned it around, just

:23:05.:23:07.

reacted in some way rather than being silent, I think it would have

:23:08.:23:12.

made them think twice about doing that again to somebody else and I

:23:13.:23:16.

would not want another girl to take that role that I was in and be

:23:17.:23:20.

treated in the same way. Thank you very much. Francis, can I ask about

:23:21.:23:26.

the current Labour leadership contest? Owen Smith or Jeremy

:23:27.:23:33.

Corbyn? I am a woman who represents millions of working people who want

:23:34.:23:38.

to see a very strong and robust opposition in parliament and I think

:23:39.:23:42.

all Democrats should want that. Mr Smith or misty Corbyn? The TUC is

:23:43.:23:47.

affiliated to the Labour Party. But your own views? I am here to

:23:48.:23:51.

represent working people and what many people want is a government in

:23:52.:23:56.

power that stands up for working people. Thank you all very much for

:23:57.:24:01.

coming onto the programme. Your experiences are very welcome in

:24:02.:24:05.

terms of sexual harassment at work. Another text, a restaurant waitress

:24:06.:24:10.

who was asked by her boss to dress as a bunny girl to serve food at his

:24:11.:24:15.

party. I worried about losing my job as I was refusing that request. And

:24:16.:24:21.

lives on Facebook, I was sexually harassed at work and a first hand

they said it was in my head and was told you are female and a male

environment, accept it. Really depressing... Right...

:24:30.:24:31.

The first of the rowing finals gets underway later

:24:32.:24:33.

Britain's really good at rowing as you probably know.

:24:34.:24:36.

The Team GB rowing team are hoping they'll bring in between 6

:24:37.:24:39.

and 8 Olympic medals, with the first of the finals

:24:40.:24:42.

the men's quadruple scull today at 20 past 2 UK time this afternoon.

:24:43.:24:45.

The team just missed the medals in last year's World Championships,

:24:46.:24:48.

You probably know that rowing was suspended because of high winds

:24:49.:24:53.

and choppy water on Sunday after competitors capsized.

:24:54.:24:57.

Great Britain's Katherine Grainger said it was the worst Olympic rowing

:24:58.:25:00.

Let's talk to retired Olympic rower Cath Bishop and over Skype

:25:01.:25:09.

from Leander Rowing Club in Berkshire is the man who ran

:25:10.:25:12.

Eton Dorney, the rowing venue during the London Olympics,

:25:13.:25:14.

Welcome, both of you. Ivor, I think the Brazilian rowing Federation did

:25:15.:25:28.

call you for advice heading into the Olympics. What did you tell them?

:25:29.:25:33.

That was very early on, pretty much in 2013, when there was still some

:25:34.:25:40.

time to go before getting it together. I have not been in touch

:25:41.:25:45.

since 2013. What was your advice? Because you are an expert. It was

:25:46.:25:52.

very much... They did not really know where to start. However, as

:25:53.:26:01.

happened with London 2012, there was a lot of help from the IOC and the

:26:02.:26:07.

international governing body for the sport. They were going to be brought

:26:08.:26:13.

up to speed. Then more technical but said they were concerned about, we

:26:14.:26:20.

had 35,000 spectators on South at Eden Dorney and it was very much,

:26:21.:26:26.

however can be cooked with those numbers? A chilly, looking at the

:26:27.:26:33.

grandstands and there are unfortunately some empty seats, I'm

:26:34.:26:37.

not sure how many can pick up with. I don't think they are under any of

:26:38.:26:44.

the pressure that 2012 was under to deliver the number of spectators we

:26:45.:26:50.

knew would be coming. They sing you don't envy trying to row in those

:26:51.:26:58.

conditions? -- I assume. It is not ideal. But we are an outdoor sport

:26:59.:27:04.

and we know it is possible and our coaches meccas collide in all sorts

:27:05.:27:08.

of other because it could be like this on the Olympic final and you to

:27:09.:27:12.

cope. Nobody wants those conditions but in the same time we row in a

:27:13.:27:17.

country with lots of wind in the winter and our crews are close to

:27:18.:27:22.

sinking in March. It is an aspect of the sport but you don't want to go

:27:23.:27:27.

so far that you have people capsizing. They did the right thing

:27:28.:27:32.

by suspending on Sunday? Absolutely, there are quite a few rowing courses

:27:33.:27:36.

that have issues with wind, even Eden Dorney. It is about making sure

:27:37.:27:40.

that the international federation knows where to draw the line. When

:27:41.:27:45.

it stops being fair or safe, we need to change the schedule to wait for

:27:46.:27:51.

the time to be right. Eden Dorney is man-made, isn't it? The venue in Rio

:27:52.:27:57.

is natural. That must make a difference? It does. Man-made cause,

:27:58.:28:07.

you can limit the expanse of water. And looking in Rio, the biggest

:28:08.:28:13.

problem was such an expanse of water either side of the racing lanes,

:28:14.:28:18.

when the wind blows across the course, it picks up the water and it

:28:19.:28:21.

has a dramatic effect we could see on Saturday. On a narrower course,

:28:22.:28:31.

particularly man-made, they are made 150 metres wide, or thereabouts, and

:28:32.:28:37.

you can contain the damage limitation, should the wind be

:28:38.:28:41.

blowing but clearly the lagoons in the open lake, they will be subject

:28:42.:28:49.

to wind and building up of water and seeing the whitecaps you could see

:28:50.:28:57.

on Saturday. It is close to the sea, that does suggest it could get like

:28:58.:29:03.

that. What about the hopes, we have the men's final in the quadruple

:29:04.:29:10.

sculls, and we have various semifinals, women and men. 6-8

:29:11.:29:19.

medals, realistic? That were set because we have looked at the world

:29:20.:29:22.

championship performances over the last few years so it is achievable.

:29:23.:29:27.

For the quadruple quadrsculls, that is a big ask, they had one of the

:29:28.:29:31.

crew members, Graeme Thomas, go home early with the virus. They have a

:29:32.:29:36.

substitute in the boat. This is a huge ask that they are in the final,

:29:37.:29:43.

six crews, 50% will wind the medal, their capacity and capability, the

:29:44.:29:47.

athletes in that, means they can do it but it is a tall order today. And

:29:48.:29:53.

what about Helen Glover and Helen Starling? Would you expect them to

:29:54.:29:58.

get into the final? Absolutely, unbeaten since 2012. One of the

:29:59.:30:02.

flagship crews. They have been so dominant. They had a scare in the

:30:03.:30:09.

heat? In a way, the fact they came through, they still want that. They

:30:10.:30:15.

will be analysing that and they have a chance to get themselves back on

:30:16.:30:19.

track in the semifinal. We expect them to come up with a really

:30:20.:30:24.

strong, dominant performance. And Katherine Grainger? What will she

:30:25.:30:30.

do? What an incredible athlete. And for Olympic medals and who would bet

:30:31.:30:35.

against another? Really tough lead up to the Olympics, it has not gone

:30:36.:30:39.

smoothly but that is real life. Behind-the-scenes things don't often

:30:40.:30:43.

go smoothly. Great performance yesterday and that will give them

:30:44.:30:46.

huge confidence. They have the capacity. It is an event without one

:30:47.:30:53.

dominant crew, it is not like there is Michael Phillips -- Michael

:30:54.:30:57.

Phelps in there, they have to build on what they did yesterday. They

:30:58.:31:01.

will have to bring out their absolute best performance. If they

:31:02.:31:02.

do, she will be on the podium. Watching it in Rio, it looks very

:31:03.:31:13.

exciting. But in December in the cold and wet, probably less so!

:31:14.:31:19.

Thank you very much. Thank you for your time as well.

:31:20.:31:22.

More misery on the railways for passengers - seven days

:31:23.:31:30.

of strike action on the cross-Channel Eurostar

:31:31.:31:32.

weekend adds more journey uncertainty.

:31:33.:31:40.

And with the English Premier League kicking off this weekend, we'll talk

:31:41.:31:43.

to two of Leicester City's mot ardent supporters about their hopes

:31:44.:31:45.

The cross-Channel Eurostar service is to be hit by seven

:31:46.:32:00.

days of strike action, starting this coming weekend.

:32:01.:32:02.

But Eurostar says it will still be able to provide what it calls

:32:03.:32:05.

The stoppage by the RMT staff runs from Friday to Monday,

:32:06.:32:08.

and there'll be a further three days of action over the Bank holiday

:32:09.:32:12.

The RMT dispute centres over rosters and work-life balance.

:32:13.:32:26.

We've been seeking an agreement with Eurostar

:32:27.:32:27.

for nearly ten years now

:32:28.:32:28.

on work-life balance, which is about rostering

:32:29.:32:30.

the unsociable hours and shift work that our trained managers take part

:32:31.:32:33.

That agreement has not been forthcoming and we are now

:32:34.:32:42.

forced to take action, because the company has

:32:43.:32:43.

ignored our demands and our point of view, and has implemented

:32:44.:32:46.

a timetable and a set of rosters that are unacceptable

:32:47.:32:48.

We're seeking an agreement with the company, and there

:32:49.:32:52.

is still time in the next few days to get such an agreement.

:32:53.:32:55.

The company knows exactly what needs to be done to settle this dispute.

:32:56.:32:58.

If they come to us with some reasonable proposals,

:32:59.:33:00.

But otherwise, we'll be forced to take the action

:33:01.:33:04.

The RMT Union has said it's prepared to suspend a five-day strike

:33:05.:33:09.

by Southern Rail staff - tomorrow and on Friday -

:33:10.:33:11.

if the company agrees to urgent talks without pre-conditions.

:33:12.:33:13.

Rail passengers have been suffering severe disruption

:33:14.:33:15.

because of the strike over the role of conductors.

:33:16.:33:17.

Southern says it's not prepared to talk to the union,

:33:18.:33:19.

unless it is willing to discuss its reform plans.

:33:20.:33:21.

Passengers have suffered severe disruption because of the strike

:33:22.:33:24.

Hospital managers are considering shutting an Accident and Emergency

:33:25.:33:28.

department at night, because of a severe

:33:29.:33:29.

United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust has said it may cut

:33:30.:33:33.

opening hours at Grantham and District Hospital in order

:33:34.:33:35.

The mother of a man murdered by a paranoid schizophrenic has told this

:33:36.:33:46.

programme she does not blame the man who killed her son but says the

:33:47.:33:51.

system is at fault. Maureen says her son's Williams death may have been

:33:52.:33:57.

prevented if more care had been given to people who suffer from

:33:58.:34:02.

serious mental problems. I do not blame the Arnold, I blame the system

:34:03.:34:05.

that allowed it to happen. Because if the system had been a bit more

:34:06.:34:10.

generously supported, it may not have happened. They found him down

:34:11.:34:17.

alleyways starving cats and dogs with a knife, for goodness sake. And

:34:18.:34:21.

he was actually on bail for some sort of violent crime, I think it

:34:22.:34:25.

was threatening somebody with a knife or something. And then the

:34:26.:34:28.

police lost him in the system somehow. They are doing an

:34:29.:34:31.

investigation into it, Greater Manchester Police, but... That

:34:32.:34:40.

doesn't solve the problem really. Why, how did they lose him? A

:34:41.:34:44.

dangerous schizophrenic with a history of violence. They put him

:34:45.:34:48.

out on the street and then nobody was checking on him.

:34:49.:34:54.

The TUC says employers should take urgent action after a survey found a

:34:55.:35:01.

number of women claimed they had been sexually harassed at work.

:35:02.:35:04.

Victims said they did not tell their managers because they were

:35:05.:35:06.

frightened it would affect their careers.

:35:07.:35:09.

Join me for BBC Newsroom live at 11 o'clock.

:35:10.:35:13.

This is Victoria. Thank you, this is strong with the

:35:14.:35:21.

sport. If you went to bed last night after Great Britain missed out on

:35:22.:35:25.

medals in gymnastics and the diving, it came good in the swimming pool in

:35:26.:35:29.

the early hours. Siobhan-Marie O'Connor winning silver in the

:35:30.:35:33.

women's 200m individual medley, setting a new British record. Just

:35:34.:35:37.

three tenths of a second from claiming Gold. That was not the only

:35:38.:35:43.

success. More came in the men's freestyle relay. The team with

:35:44.:35:47.

Stephen Milne, Duncan Scott, Dan Wallace and James Guy... And it was

:35:48.:35:55.

anchored by James Guy on the last leg, claiming silver, finishing

:35:56.:36:00.

behind the USA. Especially sweet for James Guy who missed out on a Bronze

:36:01.:36:04.

in the individual event. And another astonishing night for the world's

:36:05.:36:09.

greatest Olympian, Michael Phelps, winning his 20th and 21st Gold

:36:10.:36:13.

medals of his incredible career, anchoring home the last leg in the

:36:14.:36:19.

relay. Having also taken Gold in the men's 200m butterfly. Incredible

:36:20.:36:22.

Olympian and standout performance the game from him. That wraps up the

:36:23.:36:27.

Olympics. Big success last night once again for Team GB.

:36:28.:36:30.

Thank you. Welcome to the programme. You might have heard the term

:36:31.:36:35.

'eating is cheating' when it comes to a night out,

:36:36.:36:37.

but what about 'drunkorexia'? It's being used to describe people

:36:38.:36:40.

who skip food to save on calories Research suggests almost half

:36:41.:36:46.

of young people may have done it. A survey of 3,000 people found that

:36:47.:36:50.

40% of people age 18-34 admit they cut down their calorie intake

:36:51.:36:53.

so they can drink more booze. With us to chat about this

:36:54.:36:56.

is Alice Pitt, who's a 24 year old, who frequently eats

:36:57.:37:00.

less to save up calories Dr John Giles is the Medical

:37:01.:37:03.

Director at a private health care provider, Benenden Health,

:37:04.:37:08.

who carried out the research. She's 28 and used to drink

:37:09.:37:12.

without eating, but stopped Tell me about your routine with a

:37:13.:37:29.

big night out. That does not happen everyday. It is definitely something

:37:30.:37:34.

I have done quite often. You know you are going out that evening and

:37:35.:37:38.

you think you will go out for drinks and spend time getting ready. You

:37:39.:37:41.

might just have a big lunch knowing that is your main meal. And then you

:37:42.:37:46.

have something small in the afternoon, evening because you start

:37:47.:37:50.

drinking. And the thought process is what? Why is that a good idea?

:37:51.:37:55.

Sometimes in a shallow way, wearing a dress or something high waisted

:37:56.:38:01.

and you want... When you are drinking, you spend your entire

:38:02.:38:06.

evening drinking, you do bloat. And you fill up with food and you get

:38:07.:38:10.

lethargic and sleepy. So you do have your drinks and skip food because

:38:11.:38:15.

the drinking makes use fall. Hayley, what is your experience? I did it at

:38:16.:38:23.

university. At the time, it was almost the social norm. And it was

:38:24.:38:28.

never a conscious decision. I would never go through the day planning

:38:29.:38:33.

what I was eating. So I would skip a meal and go out. It was a case of,

:38:34.:38:38.

well, I want to save money the night or I want to look good. I want to

:38:39.:38:44.

get drunk quicker. So I am not going to eat. And at university, in this

:38:45.:38:48.

situation I was in, everybody is going out and so much is going on,

:38:49.:38:53.

you start drinking earlier and you do not have time. It is not

:38:54.:38:57.

something I did on a regular basis at all. It was just something that

:38:58.:39:02.

happened to occur as the day progressed. Doctor Giles, the Word

:39:03.:39:08.

drunkorexia, how would you define that, what does it mean? This refers

:39:09.:39:13.

to people who have perhaps skipped meals in order to have drink, or

:39:14.:39:18.

drinking alcohol rather than eating. There are lots of reasons why people

:39:19.:39:24.

do it. The research we have done at Benenden Health is to gauge the

:39:25.:39:26.

public's attitudes to help engage with the public to understand why

:39:27.:39:31.

the public behave in the way they do. And try and understand how the

:39:32.:39:35.

public think about health and weight being. In terms of how they look

:39:36.:39:40.

after themselves and also, how we address the funding gap looming in

:39:41.:39:46.

health care in this country. What is the impact on somebody's health if

:39:47.:39:51.

they skip meals for whatever reason, they have no time, they are excited

:39:52.:39:55.

and getting ready. They do not want to be bloated, they want to look

:39:56.:39:59.

flat, what is the impact on somebody's health if they go out and

:40:00.:40:05.

get drunk without eating? On the odd occasion, it does not make much

:40:06.:40:10.

difference. It is a problem if it is chronic and ongoing. People

:40:11.:40:14.

consistently drinking alcohol on an empty stomach will be at risk of

:40:15.:40:19.

gastric ulcers -- ulcers, it indigestion. Alcohol is part of a

:40:20.:40:31.

well-balanced diet -- alcohol as part of a well-balanced diet has a

:40:32.:40:36.

place. We have guidance we encourage people to follow. Long term, people

:40:37.:40:42.

run the risk of certain types of cancer, vitamin deficiencies,

:40:43.:40:45.

malnutrition, osteoporosis. If people drink excessively without

:40:46.:40:50.

food, you will get more rapid intoxication. That means people's

:40:51.:40:55.

tolerance, they might be more susceptible to the side-effects of

:40:56.:40:59.

intoxication. Falling, violence, the other downside is that go with that.

:41:00.:41:04.

Alice, you know all that! And Hayley. You do not think about those

:41:05.:41:12.

things, do you? Eating is cheating, people just say it. They do not

:41:13.:41:17.

really think about it. It is, eating is cheating! You do not think about

:41:18.:41:23.

it. I agree, it is time as well. Suddenly, everything is happening

:41:24.:41:28.

and you just... You do not think. And when you think you get drunk

:41:29.:41:32.

quicker and you save money... Do have taken aback at end of the

:41:33.:41:39.

night? Definitely do. Or you have something unhealthy at home. There

:41:40.:41:43.

is nothing in the cupboard so you have turned mushy peace on toast. I

:41:44.:41:49.

feel more unhealthy if I drink in the evening and have unhealthy food

:41:50.:41:52.

at the end of the night. You will be bloated. And the hangover is worse.

:41:53.:41:57.

If I have a dirty meal at the end of the night, I feel worse. I suggest

:41:58.:42:04.

to you that broadly, people will not take drunkorexia seriously. Because

:42:05.:42:08.

it is a phase, it is something you do. You grow up... I don't like the

:42:09.:42:17.

term drunkorexia. Just because it denotes it is at the soda and it

:42:18.:42:21.

takes away from eating disorders like bulimia and anorexia -- it is a

:42:22.:42:29.

disorder. It is a lifestyle choice or most, a conscious decision. When

:42:30.:42:37.

I was at you are invincible. You are young and stupid. For me as I have

:42:38.:42:42.

grown up, I am a lot more health-conscious and I have

:42:43.:42:46.

developed. I still look at calorie intakes and what I am eating, but it

:42:47.:42:51.

is a lot healthier and a lot more sensible. It is important for people

:42:52.:42:55.

to accept there are consequences to their actions. Everybody wants to be

:42:56.:42:58.

in charge of their own lives but every decision we make has a

:42:59.:43:02.

consequence for ourselves and others. We have to try and raise

:43:03.:43:06.

awareness and make people realise if they make bad decisions, somebody

:43:07.:43:11.

somewhere has to pick up the pieces. That sounds really apocalyptic!

:43:12.:43:17.

Sometimes, as they have said, you just do not eat and you go out and

:43:18.:43:21.

have a good night and you feel a bit rubbish at the end of the day, is

:43:22.:43:26.

that the end of the world? I am not justifying it, it is so normal. Many

:43:27.:43:31.

people. That is the problem, a lot of the research at Benenden Health,

:43:32.:43:35.

there is a disconnect between myself choices and the impact they may have

:43:36.:43:39.

on them in the future. People assume somebody else will pick up the bill

:43:40.:43:45.

for it -- lifestyle choices. There is no personal responsibility and

:43:46.:43:49.

accountability. They are too detached from the consequences of

:43:50.:43:53.

their actions and do not think it is their problem. That is a big

:43:54.:43:58.

generalisation, isn't it? It is and it pervades through a lot of the

:43:59.:44:03.

previous reports we have looked at. Do you take responsibility for

:44:04.:44:06.

yourself and what happens on a night out? I think so. I am a very normal

:44:07.:44:11.

24-year-old. I understand everything is in moderation. I know the

:44:12.:44:15.

consequences and I do take responsibility. Especially living in

:44:16.:44:20.

London, you need to take responsibility. It can be quite

:44:21.:44:25.

dangerous, getting a taxi home intoxicated and stuff. And I have a

:44:26.:44:29.

cracking group and we look after each other. We take responsibility

:44:30.:44:34.

for each other. So if you plan and you are not a complete fool, you are

:44:35.:44:38.

all right. As long as you are responsible. I do not think it is a

:44:39.:44:43.

coincidence the majority of people who do it, they are female. There

:44:44.:44:47.

are so many links between how you look and the pressure of it and

:44:48.:44:51.

going out. And in the age of Instagram. When I was at university,

:44:52.:44:59.

there was no Instagram. Instagram and these comments coming out and

:45:00.:45:02.

the fear of missing out, people want to live their best online social

:45:03.:45:08.

lives. And these are the decisions people are being forced into almost

:45:09.:45:13.

as a lifestyle choice. Yes, I agree. Thank you.

:45:14.:45:18.

The cross-Channel Eurostar service is to be hit by seven

:45:19.:45:20.

days of strike action, starting this coming weekend.

:45:21.:45:22.

The action is being taken by train managers who belong to the RMT

:45:23.:45:25.

Union, in a dispute over rosters and work-life balance.

:45:26.:45:31.

But Eurostar says it will still be able to provide what it calls

:45:32.:45:34.

a "good service" to customers, by making small changes

:45:35.:45:36.

It's the third dispute to break out on the railways.

:45:37.:45:41.

Southern Railway workers are on strike this week,

:45:42.:45:43.

and the union has also announced there's been a vote

:45:44.:45:45.

in favour of strike action on Virgin Trains East Coast.

:45:46.:45:48.

Telus more about that dispute in more specific terms. Let us look at

:45:49.:46:02.

what it means for passengers, you touched on that, seven days of

:46:03.:46:07.

strike action spread over two begins, the first strike action

:46:08.:46:11.

begins this Friday, running through the weekend and until Monday and

:46:12.:46:14.

again we have another three days of strike action at the end of this

:46:15.:46:18.

month running across the bank holiday. What impact will it have?

:46:19.:46:23.

And different slant is being put by both sides, the union says it will

:46:24.:46:27.

have very severe disruption but the company takes a different view. They

:46:28.:46:33.

are drawing up this fresh timetable and they say that anyone who has a

:46:34.:46:37.

reservation will be able to travel. He pointed out that it is just

:46:38.:46:43.

British staff taking this action and they are able to draw on crews in

:46:44.:46:49.

Belgium and France to mitigate problems and the estimate it will be

:46:50.:46:53.

at most four services every day cancelled. How many in total

:46:54.:46:59.

normally runs across the day? They say this is a small proportion of

:47:00.:47:03.

what they normally do. But the different slant from both sides on

:47:04.:47:08.

the impact. We then move on to why. It centres on this issue of worklife

:47:09.:47:15.

balance. With train managers. It has been rumbling on for a long time,

:47:16.:47:19.

the RMT says the company has failed to honour agreements made in 2008.

:47:20.:47:24.

What does that mean? The worklife balance? We have spoken to the

:47:25.:47:30.

General Secretary this morning and he outlined what the root of the

:47:31.:47:39.

problem is. We can hear from him. Eurostar members have long-standing

:47:40.:47:42.

problems over worklife balance and how they have very unsociable

:47:43.:47:47.

patterns. It is not a new issue, they have been trying to resolve

:47:48.:47:50.

this for a considerable period of time and we have got frustrated at

:47:51.:47:53.

the lack of progress from the employer and we have balloted for

:47:54.:47:56.

industrial action and got a large majority in favour and we informed

:47:57.:48:02.

the entire one week ago that the action would take place.

:48:03.:48:05.

Unfortunately, we have not had much discussion with them to get a

:48:06.:48:09.

resolution and were desperate to get a resolution to these issues but if

:48:10.:48:15.

we cannot, the action goes ahead. It is about the worklife balance,

:48:16.:48:20.

anti-social hours, working late, working overnight, all problems that

:48:21.:48:24.

have been flagged up for a number of years and it has come to a head with

:48:25.:48:29.

this. They hope they can resolve it but as things stand we will have

:48:30.:48:33.

this strike action and be heard from the transport Secretary, Chris

:48:34.:48:36.

Grayling, who has been critical of the unions on this and other strikes

:48:37.:48:44.

and he is in a factory in Derby. I am very disappointed with the

:48:45.:48:47.

unions, they keep on holding strike action over what appears to be

:48:48.:48:53.

pretty minor matters. Nothing to do with passengers or jobs, nobody is

:48:54.:48:57.

cutting jobs or pay. This feels like an excuse to be militant and it is a

:48:58.:49:02.

contrast, today we're announcing a massive programme of modernisation

:49:03.:49:05.

with the railways to improve the situation for passengers and at the

:49:06.:49:08.

same time we have unions trying to turn the clock back and hang on to

:49:09.:49:12.

working practices that are decades out of date. This simply will not be

:49:13.:49:21.

made to suffer and the unions should get back to work. Some other

:49:22.:49:23.

disputes on the railways? We have had a fresh dispute yesterday, the

:49:24.:49:28.

RMT members at work on the verge and East coast, would hold industrial

:49:29.:49:35.

action. And the ongoing problems on Southern Railways, three days into

:49:36.:49:38.

the five-day strike. There was a glimmer of hope this morning when

:49:39.:49:42.

the RMT said they would suspend the action on Thursday and Friday if the

:49:43.:49:46.

operators would sit down with them and have talks but with no

:49:47.:49:50.

preconditions. They rejected that and they said they have given them a

:49:51.:49:54.

fair and copper offer so that is not going to happen. Almost 1000 trains

:49:55.:50:00.

every day cancelled from Monday through to Friday. The boss of

:50:01.:50:02.

Southern Railways on Monday said that changes to who will open the

:50:03.:50:07.

doors in the carriages, if there is no agreement he will impose those

:50:08.:50:10.

changes in one month. Thank you very much.

:50:11.:50:15.

Leicester manager Claudio Ranieri has announced that he's signed

:50:16.:50:17.

a new four-year contract with the English Premier

:50:18.:50:19.

He'd been at a special launch this morning for the new season

:50:20.:50:23.

We followed a few of Leicester's supporters, including

:50:24.:50:31.

Sandra Fixter and Ann Barwell, or Big Ann, as she is

:50:32.:50:34.

affectionately known, on the trail to Premiership

:50:35.:50:36.

Here are some of their video diary highlights.

:50:37.:50:40.

We're off to Crystal Palace this morning.

:50:41.:50:48.

They're ready to enter the turnstiles.

:50:49.:50:54.

Very, very happy with ourselves.

:50:55.:50:55.

We are leaving the King Power Stadium and all

:50:56.:51:07.

I hope Leicester win the whole thing.

:51:08.:51:17.

If you beat us today and we stay up, I would be happy.

:51:18.:51:20.

Please, for my sake, Leicester, just do some good and get

:51:21.:51:30.

It doesn't make it any less nerve wracking.

:51:31.:51:36.

And Leicester have salvaged what could be an

:51:37.:51:38.

We'll carry on fighting, right to the end.

:51:39.:51:47.

I cannot believe how much the nerves are kicking in.

:51:48.:51:56.

And it is getting terrible, I am going to have to

:51:57.:52:03.

One place to start tonight, with Leicester City,

:52:04.:52:09.

now just one win away from being crowned Premier League champions.

:52:10.:52:12.

Today is a day where history could be made.

:52:13.:52:16.

Big Ann has come over and we're going to watch the Tottenham

:52:17.:52:32.

And I am just as nervous as when it is a Leicester City match!

:52:33.:52:39.

We have done it! Champions! Ole! Yes!

:52:40.:53:00.

We can speak now to Sandra and Ann, who you saw in

:53:01.:53:03.

And also joining us from Oxfordshire is the former West Ham

:53:04.:53:08.

Fellow! First of all, the reaction to Claudio Ranieri? Signing a new

:53:09.:53:23.

contract? He is staying, a Leicester man and hopefully we can win more

:53:24.:53:29.

silverware. I totally agree, the man House magic. Will you do what you

:53:30.:53:35.

did last season this season? I doubt it! I think this was a one-off, we

:53:36.:53:41.

played as a team, we have had our day and were champions of England

:53:42.:53:45.

and nobody can take that away. But you cannot do that again? You never

:53:46.:53:53.

know. I am optimistic! What is the difference between how you feel

:53:54.:53:58.

right now compared to one year ago? Last season we expected to be

:53:59.:54:01.

relegated and thought we would be in the bottom of the table and as it

:54:02.:54:07.

progressed it got horrible. You were going to matches, thinking, could

:54:08.:54:11.

this happen? Everybody said the bubble was going to burst. And it

:54:12.:54:16.

just did not happen. You went to matches and you were on edge the

:54:17.:54:20.

whole time, and all of a sudden there was this little club from

:54:21.:54:27.

Leicester that has good support, fantastic owners, and players that

:54:28.:54:32.

just play as a team. And it was happening and we are supporters, we

:54:33.:54:35.

have been going since we were this high. It was just unbelievable! Let

:54:36.:54:44.

me bring in Matt. What about the expectations for this season? Have

:54:45.:54:47.

you been to the new stadium for West Ham? When I was there at the

:54:48.:54:53.

building was in progress so it looks fantastic stadium. I wish there the

:54:54.:54:59.

other night and the atmosphere was pretty good. The last time I was

:55:00.:55:04.

there was a 2012 games and there is quite a difference but I think the

:55:05.:55:07.

team will settle down and the fans will like it but I wonder if you

:55:08.:55:10.

think the managers this year might be talked about more than the

:55:11.:55:16.

players? We have got Guardiola, Conte, Jose Mourinho and so one? It

:55:17.:55:24.

brings fantastic excitement to the Premier League. But only we have

:55:25.:55:28.

world-class footballers but managers from around the world who want to

:55:29.:55:33.

test themselves in the league, Pep Guardiola and Jose Mourinho half out

:55:34.:55:36.

fights and Jose Mourinho half out fights in the cask Elite League

:55:37.:55:39.

looks fantastic this year from every angle. Rethink some of the huge

:55:40.:55:44.

transfer fees we have seen will be justified? -- do you think. I think

:55:45.:55:48.

they are reflective of what the Premier League is on the world

:55:49.:55:53.

stage. There is so much money. The deals are only going to increase the

:55:54.:55:57.

amount of money, everywhere in the world everybody has a man United and

:55:58.:56:02.

Liverpool and Chelsea shirt and the money does not seem like it is going

:56:03.:56:06.

to stop, we do not know what will happen in the next three or four

:56:07.:56:11.

years, bigger TV deals? As a fan, watching, it is a great spectacle,

:56:12.:56:15.

however it takes the footballers further away from the normal man on

:56:16.:56:19.

the street. One woman on the street. And as an English player coming

:56:20.:56:26.

through, might you be looking at Pogba and thinking, how can I get an

:56:27.:56:30.

opportunity? I think the Premier League are trying to address that by

:56:31.:56:37.

entering the under 23 team into the Johnstone's Paint Trophy from last

:56:38.:56:41.

season. It is more difficult. Only 33% of the playing staff in the

:56:42.:56:46.

Premier League are British or English so it is going to be

:56:47.:56:50.

difficult and this is a difficult thing, as you would expect, with the

:56:51.:56:55.

amount of money and we can cherry pick the best youngsters from around

:56:56.:56:58.

the world but hopefully that will spur of the local youngsters onto

:56:59.:57:03.

wanting to try to get into the Premier League. Who will win this

:57:04.:57:08.

season? I fancy Man United. I think they have a manager in charge who

:57:09.:57:12.

knows how to win. They have recruited extremely well and signed

:57:13.:57:15.

some good players, spent a lot of money and there will be huge

:57:16.:57:21.

expectation. Sander, you are at, you were at the Community Shield on

:57:22.:57:26.

Sunday, how did they look? That was before Paul Pogba and those

:57:27.:57:35.

ridiculous wages! Lesson, I wish you the best of luck! It will be

:57:36.:57:38.

brilliant to see Leicester win that again! Absolutely! We were just so

:57:39.:57:43.

relaxed the season because we have done it. Let us save that relaxation

:57:44.:57:50.

continues! Thank you both very much. And Matt. Thank you.

:57:51.:57:54.

We just want to let you know that next week you can be part

:57:55.:57:57.

of a Labour leadership programme with Jeremy Corbyn and Owen

:57:58.:57:59.

It's on Wednesday 17th August and it's your chance to question

:58:00.:58:03.

directly, to question yourself the two men who say they want to be

:58:04.:58:06.

Whether you are a Labour Party member, a Labour voter,

:58:07.:58:09.

an ex-Labour voter or someone who's voted for Labour in the past or

:58:10.:58:12.

would consider them in the future, if you would like the chance to talk

:58:13.:58:16.

to Jeremy Corbyn, the current leader of Labour, and Owen Smith,

:58:17.:58:18.

who wants to be the leader of Labour, email

:58:19.:58:43.

The weather is turning across northern parts of the UK, it

:58:44.:58:45.
