Fighting famine in East Africa - the Government pledges ?200 million | :00:08. | :00:10. | |
Two million people are at risk in Somalia and South Sudan, | :00:11. | :00:16. | |
devastated by civil war and drought. | :00:17. | :00:24. | |
We are speaking about the at that unprecedented power. We will be | :00:25. | :00:34. | |
saving the lives of people in desperate need. | :00:35. | :00:43. | |
Good morning it's Wednesday the 22nd of February. | :00:44. | :00:45. | |
Police hunt a murderer who's on the run after two armed men | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
helped him to escape during a hospital visit | :00:50. | :00:51. | |
The cost of repairing England's crumbling schools hits ?7 billion - | :00:52. | :00:56. | |
the Government's spending watchdog warns it could double | :00:57. | :00:58. | |
Weird and wonderful or just downright strange? | :00:59. | :01:08. | |
I'm looking at the most unusual things we've been asked | :01:09. | :01:10. | |
What was the weirdest thing about me? You could be a vegetable, what | :01:11. | :01:22. | |
vegetable would you be? And in sport, there are goals galore | :01:23. | :01:24. | |
in the Champions League, with a thriller at Manchester City | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
as they beat Monaco 5-3 in the first And Carol is checking out some | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
famous royal finery. She is out and about today. She is | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
at Kensington palace. An extra ?200 million in emergency | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
humanitarian aid has been promised by the Government to tackle a famine | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
in South Sudan and Somalia. The International Development | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
Secretary, Priti Patel, said the additional funds | :01:51. | :01:51. | |
would provide food, water and emergency health care for more | :01:52. | :01:53. | |
than two million people. Here's our diplomatic | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
correspondent, James Landale. In parts of war-torn southern Sudan, | :01:57. | :02:07. | |
people are now dying of starvation and famine has been officially | :02:08. | :02:13. | |
declared. The UN charity says Somalia, human and Nigeria are | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
facing similar crisis with millions of people having no reliable access | :02:18. | :02:24. | |
to food. Today Priti Patel is promising a new package for | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
emergency aid for south Sudan and Somalia. An extra ?200 million will | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
be made available including emergency food and water for a | :02:35. | :02:40. | |
million people in Somalia and food assistance for 500,000 people in | :02:41. | :02:46. | |
south Sudan. It will be also care for starving children in both care. | :02:47. | :02:52. | |
It will basically mean we will be saving lives, bringing vital | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
assistance to people in desperate need by putting the call out to the | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
international community to step up and galvanise support so we can have | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
a strong international we response to what quite frankly could be a | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
devastating humanity in crisis. She says that the response so far has | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
been inadequate and the world sleepwalking towards catastrophe is | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
stop she calls for a faster humanitarian system but the problem | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
is these crisis are caused as much by conflict as drought. No amount of | :03:26. | :03:27. | |
aid will end the violence. A convicted murderer is on the run | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
this morning after armed men helped him escape | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
during a hospital visit. Shaun Walmsley, is one of four men | :03:35. | :03:36. | |
serving life sentences for a fatal Our reporter Holly Hamilton is | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
outside Aintree University Hospital for us this morning, | :03:41. | :03:46. | |
what's the latest Holly? Shaun Walmsley was brought here | :03:47. | :03:58. | |
yesterday afternoon for a hospital appointment from Liverpool prison | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
just two to three miles away. It was escorted by two prison officers but | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
it was when they tried to leave to get back into the vehicle when they | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
were ambushed by two men both understood to have their faces | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
covered one armed with a knife the other with a gun. They force of the | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
officers to allow Shaun Walmsley to escape. Neither prison officers were | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
injured and were able to raise the alarm quite quickly and Merseyside | :04:28. | :04:33. | |
police have launched a search. They are working closely with the | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
Ministry of Justice and other police forces. I must mention he is | :04:37. | :04:42. | |
described as dangerous. He was convicted in 2015 for murder and | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
sentenced to life in prison. It is understood he is still with those | :04:48. | :04:54. | |
two men who helped him to escape so members of the public are urged not | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
to approach them but if they do see them to contact emergency. | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
The cost of essential repairs to school buildings in England has | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
already reached almost ?7 billion, according to the National Audit | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
In a report published today it warns that figure could double by 2020. | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
But ministers have also spent money on creating places in new free | :05:14. | :05:16. | |
schools, some of which are under-subscribed. | :05:17. | :05:18. | |
England's schools are in high demand. | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
Places for 400,000 more pupils are needed by 2021, | :05:25. | :05:26. | |
and safe, high quality buildings are hard to come by. | :05:27. | :05:32. | |
Many schools are already in a sorry state. | :05:33. | :05:34. | |
Most were built before the mid-1970s, meaning worn out walls | :05:35. | :05:37. | |
and windows or faulty electrics are a problem. | :05:38. | :05:46. | |
It will cost an estimated ?6.7 billion to fix major | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
The National Audit Office says the bill could grow sharply. | :05:50. | :05:52. | |
I think the challenge for the department is that | :05:53. | :05:55. | |
if you don't address deterioration promptly, | :05:56. | :05:58. | |
those buildings continue to deteriorate and then either | :05:59. | :06:00. | |
they can no longer be used for schools or at least it costs | :06:01. | :06:06. | |
because the deterioration gets worse. | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
As well as repairs to existing schools, the government is planning | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
to open 500 new free schools over the next five years. | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
But auditors said a lack of suitable land meant large sums | :06:17. | :06:19. | |
were being paid to secure sites and they raised concerns that | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
in some cases the programme had created places where | :06:23. | :06:24. | |
The Department for Education insisted free schools were vital | :06:25. | :06:31. | |
to make places available and that it was making a huge | :06:32. | :06:33. | |
investment in the school estate to rebuild and refurbish buildings. | :06:34. | :06:41. | |
The Bill giving the Prime Minister permission to trigger the start | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
of the Brexit process has been given an unopposed second reading | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
It will now be discussed in committee where some peers | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
are expected to attempt to amend the proposed legislation. | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
A ruling at the Supreme Court later could see thousands of British | :06:57. | :06:59. | |
citizens allowed to bring their foreign spouse into the UK. | :07:00. | :07:03. | |
The law currently requires the British partner to earn more | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
than ?18,600 before their partners can join them. | :07:07. | :07:10. | |
The bar applies to citizens of countries other than | :07:11. | :07:12. | |
the European Union states, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway. | :07:13. | :07:20. | |
The murder of the MP Jo Cox will be remembered as one of the most tragic | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
moments of the EU referendum campaign. | :07:26. | :07:26. | |
But to mark the anniversary of her death, up to 100,000 events | :07:27. | :07:30. | |
will be held across the UK in the form of street parties, | :07:31. | :07:33. | |
The Great Get-Together will take place over the weekend of June 17 | :07:34. | :07:42. | |
and 18 and aims to unite communities in line with Jo's belief | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
that we have more in common than that which divides us. | :07:46. | :07:54. | |
Jo Cox's sister Kim, will be joining us on the show later. | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
By 2030 both men and women in the UK are now expected to live | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
until they're over 80 years old, for the first time. | :08:03. | :08:09. | |
I do not think I really want that. Go on as long as you can! What a | :08:10. | :08:17. | |
good attitude. Scientists at Imperial College | :08:18. | :08:17. | |
London looked at 35 industrialised nations and have found that | :08:18. | :08:20. | |
South Koreans, on average, We all know we're living longer, | :08:21. | :08:22. | |
but by just how much? Apart from a blip in 2011 and 2012, | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
life expectancy in the UK has From birth, the average life | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
expectancy for a woman is currently But according to experts, | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
the gender gap could be closing. By 2030 it has been predicted | :08:36. | :08:43. | |
women's life expectancy will be over Compare that to South Korea, | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
where the average lifespan Countries that have done better | :08:48. | :08:54. | |
are countries that have actually... That have managed to deal | :08:55. | :09:01. | |
with obesity really well. South Korea is doing | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
remarkably well. They have some of the lowest levels | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
of hypertension and obesity They have found some of the best | :09:11. | :09:13. | |
investments in childhood nutrition. Scientists once thought an average | :09:14. | :09:25. | |
life expectancy of over 90 was impossible, but, | :09:26. | :09:28. | |
with research now suggesting there may be no upper limit, | :09:29. | :09:30. | |
there are calls for more investment in health and social care to cope | :09:31. | :09:33. | |
with an ageing population. They have found some of the best | :09:34. | :09:36. | |
investments in childhood nutrition. You know the red ?5 notes with the | :09:37. | :09:41. | |
portrait of Jane Austen,? A woman who found a rare five pound | :09:42. | :09:51. | |
note engraved with a portrait of Jane Austen, has | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
donated it to charity. The note is worth an estimated | :09:56. | :09:57. | |
?50,000 and was found in Northern It's now been sent back | :09:58. | :10:00. | |
to the art gallery in Scotland which commissioned it, | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
along with a letter asking that it The gallery have confirmed | :10:05. | :10:06. | |
they will auction it off in aid Where Rhys Jane Austen on that note? | :10:07. | :10:21. | |
On the little plastic window, I think there is only one left to be | :10:22. | :10:27. | |
found. There is another one out there somewhere. Have a look in your | :10:28. | :10:38. | |
wallet. It is 16 a.m.. Let me check my pockets. Not short of fivers in | :10:39. | :10:46. | |
Manchester City? Five goals, an unbelievable match. One you could | :10:47. | :10:48. | |
not turn away from. Manchester City will take a 5-3 lead | :10:49. | :10:51. | |
to Monaco after an incredible first leg of their Champions | :10:52. | :10:54. | |
League tie last night. City were trailing in the second | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
half but scored three times in the last 20 minutes | :10:58. | :11:00. | |
to seal the wi.. in the last 20 minutes | :11:01. | :11:02. | |
to seal the win. Sergio Aguero scored twice | :11:03. | :11:04. | |
against the French league leaders Jose Mourinho says he cannot | :11:05. | :11:14. | |
guarantee Wayne Rooney will see out the rest of the season as he is | :11:15. | :11:20. | |
linked to a foreign club. The world after eating a pie on the | :11:21. | :11:39. | |
bench, Sutton's reserve goalkeeper has resigned after the FA launched | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
an investigation into a dating stunt. That is all the sport and we | :11:43. | :11:56. | |
will have more later. I was interviewing Wenger. And I saw Wayne | :11:57. | :12:04. | |
Rooney. It has escalated out of control that story. I feel a little | :12:05. | :12:10. | |
bit sorry for him. It has also detracted what was a great | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
performance on Saturday. Everybody is talking about it. | :12:16. | :12:26. | |
Were you ever interested in the addresses of the Princess Diana? A | :12:27. | :12:35. | |
bit like Kate Middleton now. I am aware. Well we sent out whether | :12:36. | :12:45. | |
royalty to Kensington palace. You are therefore a special reason? Good | :12:46. | :12:54. | |
morning. I hear because this Friday, Diana, her fashion story launches. | :12:55. | :13:01. | |
This address she wore as a lady Diana Spencer before becoming | :13:02. | :13:03. | |
engaged to Prince Charles. Very romantic. Very much of the 1980s. | :13:04. | :13:13. | |
This beautiful white one was inspired and she was eased by ballet | :13:14. | :13:19. | |
performance in Rio de Janeiro. This Kaplan Walker one you may remember, | :13:20. | :13:25. | |
it is featured in a lot of her pictures. Lovely scarf around her | :13:26. | :13:33. | |
neck. We have pictures of her wearing this addressed. She loved | :13:34. | :13:40. | |
film. The design was inspired by Princess Grace of Monaco. She used | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
to go to the local cinema disguised with a scarf which is ironic. She | :13:45. | :13:52. | |
wanted to enjoy a good movie much like the rest of us. Outside the | :13:53. | :14:01. | |
looking at blustery wind. Some will have gales today and we also have | :14:02. | :14:03. | |
some rain in the forecast as well.. We are blowing a gale in Scotland | :14:04. | :14:18. | |
and we also have some showers. Quite a bit of cloud. Across northern | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
England, a brighter start with a few showers. South Lincolnshire and the | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
Midlands, East Anglia and south, a lot of cloud. Patchy rain. Into the | :14:28. | :14:34. | |
south-west, a murky start to the date with some fog around. As we | :14:35. | :14:37. | |
have across the Bristol Channel into Wales, heavier rain through the | :14:38. | :14:44. | |
course of today. Moving across the Irish Sea into Northern Ireland, a | :14:45. | :14:48. | |
bright start for you but it will not stay dry. It will rain later on in | :14:49. | :14:53. | |
the day. Windy wherever you are but windiest across the Northern Isles. | :14:54. | :15:00. | |
We are looking at gusts in the high 60s. That could cause some | :15:01. | :15:05. | |
disruption. A weather front in the south of England flips around and | :15:06. | :15:12. | |
moves north again. Part of the north will stay dry. As we head through | :15:13. | :15:16. | |
the evening and overnight, the rain will be heavier and continues to | :15:17. | :15:22. | |
move north, it joins forces from rain from Northern Ireland and | :15:23. | :15:27. | |
continues its journey. It will readily fall as snow not just to | :15:28. | :15:35. | |
higher levels, we are looking at it getting down to lower levels and the | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
wind will be cut. The Met Office has a weather warning to be prepared for | :15:40. | :15:44. | |
strong winds tomorrow pit the killer leak across parts of north Lau -- | :15:45. | :15:53. | |
particularly those across parts of north Wales. Stallman Doris will be | :15:54. | :16:00. | |
upon us. To the south, strong winds and heavy rain. -- storm Doris. | :16:01. | :16:10. | |
Across the central Lomond, a fast moving storm, behind that some | :16:11. | :16:19. | |
brighter skies but also wintry in the north. Friday a quieter day. We | :16:20. | :16:25. | |
do have some rain coming in from the west and the winds will be lighter. | :16:26. | :16:30. | |
A lot going on at Kensington Palace and a lot going on with the weather | :16:31. | :16:32. | |
as well. Looking forward to seeing plenty of | :16:33. | :16:43. | |
that on the programme. And lots more about Storm Doris, featuring in | :16:44. | :16:46. | |
quite a bit of the papers, we'll do that in a moment but a reminder of | :16:47. | :16:49. | |
the main stories. million to buy food, | :16:50. | :16:53. | |

an unprecedented humanitarian crisis Police in Merseyside are searching | :16:59. | :17:00. | |

for life for murder, got away while visiting | :17:05. | :17:07. | |
a hospital in Liverpool. Officers say he's dangerous | :17:08. | :17:09. | |
and the public should not As promised, let's look at the | :17:10. | :17:22. | |
papers, Ben and Ollie have joined us, starting with the front page of | :17:23. | :17:26. | |
the Times, because I was drawn to this picture. I wonder why? The main | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
story is Britain staying open to EU migrants but this is Boris Johnson | :17:32. | :17:35. | |
and this jog, part of this daily fitness regime and people are | :17:36. | :17:40. | |
talking about this outfit, a combination of styles including | :17:41. | :17:44. | |

headphones all income both. At least he's running -- with some Bermuda | :17:49. | :17:55. | |
shorts. He's running in swimming shorts perhaps? He's going to jump | :17:56. | :18:00. | |
into a lake? One of the shorts with a perishable lining. Maybe he's | :18:01. | :18:05. | |
training for a trial Palumpa. He has a bit of a graze, a Boris bikes | :18:06. | :18:11. | |

fashion commentator! Heavyset fleece! Fleece warm to warm to be | :18:17. | :18:21. | |
running in! The Daily Telegraph today, a story at the bottom is a | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
concern to any parent who has been out in a shop somewhere with a | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
toddler having a tantrum, you know when there's a trial really losing | :18:30. | :18:34. | |
the plot and you can't calm them down. According to the Telegraph | :18:35. | :18:39. | |
teachers are being encouraged to watch out for more abnormal | :18:40. | :18:43. | |
behaviour from toddlers losing their temper to quickly as a sign things | :18:44. | :18:48. | |
aren't right at home. Anyone who has looked after a toddler and taken | :18:49. | :18:52. | |
them to a supermarket knows it can be challenging. A few of the red | :18:53. | :18:57. | |
tops, the Daily Mirror has rain Rooney's ?750,000 a week Chinese | :18:58. | :19:01. | |

few days. -- Wayne Rooney. The Sun has story about the reserve | :19:07. | :19:15. | |
goalkeeper at Sutton United who was forced to resign for eating a pie | :19:16. | :19:20. | |
during the game. Orly, what have you got? A few people looking at the | :19:21. | :19:24. | |
pies but a fantastic match last night at the Etihad. This headline | :19:25. | :19:30. | |
on Henry Winter's peace. That sums it up, it was breathtaking. I | :19:31. | :19:36. | |
thought I was going to get an early night. The Wayne Rooney story. The | :19:37. | :19:43. | |
Chinese Super League transfer window closes on Tuesday and ?50 million | :19:44. | :19:48. | |
for a 31-year-old is a lot of money that perhaps Manchester United can't | :19:49. | :19:53. | |
turn down. Ben? A look at the front of the FT, the budget expectation is | :19:54. | :19:57. | |
on what the Chancellor might be able to pull out of the bag but Philip | :19:58. | :20:00. | |
Hammond says don't expect anything too exciting, he says there is no | :20:01. | :20:04. | |
pot of money under my desk so there are calls for a change to the new | :20:05. | :20:08. | |
business rates system, with been talking a lot about that on the | :20:09. | :20:12. | |
programme but as to whether there will be more money to reduce that I | :20:13. | :20:16. | |
don't know, because it could badly affect small businesses. Sally, | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
talking about problems in supermarkets, look at this rascal | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
from the inside pages. A baby born with two front teeth. Apparently it | :20:25. | :20:31. | |
is very rare. Nothing to be too concerned about. Two perfectly | :20:32. | :20:37. | |
formed incisors in her inside jaw, she is gorgeous. Beautiful, she is | :20:38. | :20:42. | |
very grown-up, two teeth already. She looks like a proper trial! | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
Remarkable scenes! There you go. Thank you both very much. -- child! | :20:48. | :20:50. | |
Nearly a quarter of high street shops do not have wheelchair access | :20:51. | :20:54. | |
and only one in ten offer equipment for hearing aid users, | :20:55. | :20:57. | |
by the not for profit organisation, DisabledGo. | :20:58. | :21:01. | |
As part of the BBC's Disability Works Week, | :21:02. | :21:03. | |
our correspondent Nikki Fox looks at how the fashion industry targets | :21:04. | :21:06. | |
disabled consumers who have a collective spending power of 249 | :21:07. | :21:08. | |
billion pounds, otherwise known as the purple pound. | :21:09. | :21:14. | |
The changing face of the British high street has for many disabled | :21:15. | :21:22. | |
people not changed fast enough. And this lack of visible disability has | :21:23. | :21:26. | |
spurred on one woman to try to do something about it. This shop in | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
London is swapping its regular mannequin for the... Sophie Morgan | :21:31. | :21:36. | |
designed this wheelchair for a sitting mannequin, a business she | :21:37. | :21:41. | |
started in 2010. During the 2012 Paralympics, Sophie got her product | :21:42. | :21:46. | |
into a big high street store. But as soon as the Games finished, her | :21:47. | :21:50. | |
mannequin was taken out and never used again. Young men and women | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
going out shopping don't feel welcome and they don't feel like | :21:55. | :21:57. | |
they're part of the conversation when it comes to style and fashion. | :21:58. | :22:02. | |
I wanted this chair to be a symbol of inclusion from the shops so I | :22:03. | :22:06. | |
could come past this shop and I know this shop would have thought about | :22:07. | :22:09. | |
how to style somebody in a wheelchair, but furthermore that | :22:10. | :22:12. | |
their shop is accessible and they have changing rooms that are | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
accessible. Can you see a Matt scored there's a mannequin sat down | :22:17. | :22:22. | |
but in the design of a wheelchair -- can you see in that shop. Did you | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
know it was a wheelchair? No. What do you make of it is blue great, | :22:27. | :22:31. | |
fashion is for everyone. You see mannequins for different sizes and | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
it's good we are getting mannequins in wheelchairs. People are becoming | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
more socially aware, so I think it will be fine. It's not just about | :22:40. | :22:43. | |
seeing disability on the high street, it's about accessibility as | :22:44. | :22:47. | |
well. Making sure disabled people can get into shops so they can spend | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
their hard earned cash. Of the nearly 1300 fashion retailers, the | :22:54. | :22:58. | |
organisation DisabledGo visited, 23% had no step free access. 90% were | :22:59. | :23:05. | |
unable to offer hearing loops, a type of sound system for hearing aid | :23:06. | :23:10. | |
users and 62% didn't give their staff training on how to best | :23:11. | :23:15. | |
support disabled customers. So from the high street to high-end fashion. | :23:16. | :23:20. | |
These designers used two disabled models to launch their new | :23:21. | :23:23. | |
collection, which opened in London Fashion Week on Friday. We haven't | :23:24. | :23:28. | |
adapted anything in this collection, the approach to styling and the | :23:29. | :23:32. | |
casting of this collection was done as with any other collection. The | :23:33. | :23:38. | |
Minister for the people once businesses to be open to everyone | :23:39. | :23:41. | |
but the British retail Consortium point out that shop owners can be | :23:42. | :23:44. | |
restricted on making adjustments due to the age or design for the | :23:45. | :23:49. | |
building. The purple pound exists, we are there, we want to spend money | :23:50. | :23:56. | |
and it's time to bring us in. Nikki Fox, BBC News. | :23:57. | :23:58. | |
The impact of fake news on society is already being widely discussed, | :23:59. | :24:01. | |
with the government even announcing an inquiry into the threat it | :24:02. | :24:04. | |
But what impact is the phenomenon having | :24:05. | :24:06. | |
Newsround's Ricky Boleto has been to one school to see if the pupils | :24:07. | :24:11. | |
there can spot the difference between fact and fiction. | :24:12. | :24:20. | |
We've given this classroom six articles to read, but what they | :24:21. | :24:26. | |
don't know is that every story is fake news. So, let's begin. | :24:27. | :24:35. | |
So, what's the verdict? I love the US one because you can | :24:36. | :24:46. | |
see it really clearly and most other pictures with UFOs and stuff like | :24:47. | :24:50. | |
that, you can't really see it clearly -- UFO one. I would say the | :24:51. | :24:56. | |
baby one. The one I most enjoyed was the baby one. When I was a baby I | :24:57. | :25:01. | |
was quite hairy so I think I believe this. Do you think that picture's | :25:02. | :25:09. | |
real? Yeah. I would say the UFO one, it's all the detail, you don't | :25:10. | :25:12. | |
really see a story like that every single day. I think it's real. I | :25:13. | :25:17. | |
don't think they'd put it in if it wasn't real. Maybe one or two were | :25:18. | :25:23. | |
not true, they just sounded a little bit weird. What happens if I told | :25:24. | :25:27. | |
you that every story here was fake? I wouldn't believe that. I would | :25:28. | :25:36. | |
be... Like, surprised. Amazed. I'm telling you that all these stories | :25:37. | :25:42. | |
aren't true, they are fake news. Oh. They looked like they were actually | :25:43. | :25:43. | |
on the news. Don't know what to say! How difficult do you think is it | :25:44. | :25:46. | |
to spot a fake news story? When you see news that | :25:47. | :25:50. | |
interests you online, do you check to make sure that it's | :25:51. | :25:52. | |
true before you share it? or share your thoughts with other | :25:53. | :25:56. | |
viewers on our Facebook page. You can find us on social media and | :25:57. | :26:12. | |
Twitter as well. To be fair, the news this year has been so strange, | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
sometimes we read it out and we think, is this really happening? | :26:17. | :26:20. | |
Fact checking is the key. Check your facts! That's the key! | :26:21. | :26:22. | |
We'll go behind the scenes of a new exhibition that weaves | :26:23. | :26:31. | |
together the changing fashions of Diana, the style icon. | :26:32. | :26:33. | |
Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. | :26:34. | :29:55. | |
I'm back with the latest from the BBC London newsroom | :29:56. | :30:00. | |
Hello this is Breakfast with Dan Walker and Sally Nugent. | :30:01. | :30:07. | |
It's 6:30 on Wednesday 22nd February. | :30:08. | :30:10. | |
We'll bring you all the latest news and sport in a moment, | :30:11. | :30:13. | |
Her sister, Kim will be here to talk about The Great Get-Together, | :30:14. | :30:19. | |
a series of events to celebrate the life of the Labour MP | :30:20. | :30:23. | |
They have a collective spending power of ?249 billion, | :30:24. | :30:29. | |
but access to the high street for disabled people remains slow. | :30:30. | :30:31. | |
We'll meet the woman behind fashion for every-body. | :30:32. | :30:43. | |
She has three nominations at tonight's Brit Awards | :30:44. | :30:45. | |
and is the voice behind the number one single Rockabye. | :30:46. | :30:49. | |
The singer, Anne-Marie, will be here after nine. | :30:50. | :31:05. | |
We start with the news that an extra ?200 million in emergency | :31:06. | :31:14. | |
humanitarian aid has been promised by the Government to tackle a famine | :31:15. | :31:18. | |
The international development secretary, Priti Patel, | :31:19. | :31:21. | |
said the additional funds would provide food, water | :31:22. | :31:23. | |
and emergency health care for more than two million people. | :31:24. | :31:25. | |
Here's our diplomatic correspondent, James Landale. | :31:26. | :31:27. | |
In parts of war-torn South Sudan, people are now dying of starvation | :31:28. | :31:30. | |
and famine has been officially declared. | :31:31. | :31:32. | |
The UN and charities say that Somalia, Yemen and north-east | :31:33. | :31:35. | |
Nigeria are facing similar humanitarian crisis with millions | :31:36. | :31:37. | |
of people having no reliable access to food. | :31:38. | :31:39. | |
Today the International Development Secretary, | :31:40. | :31:40. | |
Priti Patel, is promising a new package of emergency aid | :31:41. | :31:44. | |
She said there will be an extra ?200 million made available this year, | :31:45. | :31:53. | |
this would include emergency food and water for a million people | :31:54. | :31:56. | |
in Somalia and food assistance for 500,000 people in South Sudan. | :31:57. | :32:00. | |
There will be also emergency health care and nutritional support | :32:01. | :32:02. | |
for starving children in both countries. | :32:03. | :32:06. | |
Britain's leadership will basically mean we will be saving lives, | :32:07. | :32:09. | |
bringing vital assistance to people in desperate need but also putting | :32:10. | :32:12. | |
the call out to the international community to get them to step up, | :32:13. | :32:16. | |
to galvanise their support so that we can have a strong | :32:17. | :32:19. | |
international response to what quite frankly could be | :32:20. | :32:23. | |
Ms Patel says that the international response so far had been inadequate | :32:24. | :32:31. | |
and the world sleepwalking towards catastrophe and she called | :32:32. | :32:33. | |
for a faster, more effective humanitarian system. | :32:34. | :32:38. | |
The problem is that these crisis have been caused as much by conflict | :32:39. | :32:42. | |
as by drought, and no amount of aid will end the violence that has | :32:43. | :32:46. | |
brought so much suffering to these countries. | :32:47. | :32:49. | |
And just after 8 o'clock we'll be speaking to Mike Penrose | :32:50. | :32:57. | |
the executive director of Unicef UK about the situation in Sudan. | :32:58. | :33:01. | |
A convicted murderer is on the run after armed men helped him escape | :33:02. | :33:05. | |

Merseyside Police said two men, believed to be armed with a gun | :33:20. | :33:23. | |
The cost of essential repairs to school buildings in England has | :33:24. | :33:28. | |
according to the National Audit Office. | :33:29. | :33:31. | |
In a report published today, it warns that figure | :33:32. | :33:33. | |
But ministers have also spent money on creating places in new free | :33:34. | :33:38. | |
schools, some of which are under-subscribed. | :33:39. | :33:48. | |
Thousands of British citizens could be allowed to bring foreign spouses | :33:49. | :34:00. | |

Up to 100,000 events will be held throughout the UK in June. | :34:16. | :34:18. | |
Jo Cox, will be marked by street parties and picnics | :34:19. | :34:21. | |
The MP was killed in her west Yorkshire constituency just before | :34:22. | :34:25. | |
Her husband, Brendan Cox, has said The Great Get Together, | :34:26. | :34:28. | |
would be a "fitting tribute" to his wife. | :34:29. | :34:31. | |
The plans will be launched by the Duchess of Cornwall later today. | :34:32. | :34:34. | |
Jo Cox's sister Kim, will be join us on the show later. | :34:35. | :34:37. | |
We'll speak to her at ten past seven. | :34:38. | :34:39. | |
By 2030 both men and women in the UK are expected to live well | :34:40. | :34:43. | |
Scientists at Imperial College London looked at the average life | :34:44. | :34:48. | |
expectancy in 35 industrialised nations and discovered South Koreans | :34:49. | :34:51. | |
are expected to live the longest - reaching an average age | :34:52. | :34:54. | |
Golf is obviously the key. My plan is to keep going until the bitter | :34:55. | :35:13. | |
end on the golf course. I was trying to remember a fact about the oldest | :35:14. | :35:18. | |
person ever but I should check that one out... I will come back to you | :35:19. | :35:25. | |
on that one. I will not make it up, don't worry. What a game last night! | :35:26. | :35:39. | |
It is one of those things when you say did you see the match last night | :35:40. | :35:44. | |
but did you see the match last night! Incredible. Pep Guardiola | :35:45. | :35:51. | |
says he expects more of the same when they head to Monaco for the | :35:52. | :35:57. | |
second leg. was a frantic night | :35:58. | :36:03. | |
at the Etihad Stadium, Manchester City winning 5-3 remember | :36:04. | :36:05. | |
the Manchester United and Cheslea flop Radamel Falcao, | :36:06. | :36:08. | |
he had a penalty saved but was brilliant last night | :36:09. | :36:10. | |
he scored twice for the french 3-2 down with 20 minutes | :36:11. | :36:13. | |
to play, City threw caution Sergio Aguero's second made it | :36:14. | :36:20. | |
three-allJohn Stones addded a fourth then Leroy Sane tapped | :36:21. | :36:24. | |
in number five to cap an astonishing When two teams want to play that | :36:25. | :36:37. | |
way, the foot will is magical. I am happy for the team, that team, if | :36:38. | :36:46. | |
one team can score a thousand million goals, it is Monaco. | :36:47. | :36:51. | |
Another blast from the past, Former Liverpool and Chelsea striker | :36:52. | :36:57. | |
Fernando Torres scored the final goal to give last year's beaten | :36:58. | :37:00. | |
finalists a strong position in the tie. | :37:01. | :37:05. | |
For all their woes on the home front, the Champions Leicester City | :37:06. | :37:09. | |

Champions League knockout tie tonight They are fighting | :37:12. | :37:14. | |

Manchester United are playing tonight in France, they've taken | :37:21. | :37:25. | |
a three-nil lead to Saint Etienne in the second leg of their Europa | :37:26. | :37:29. | |
Although Wayne Rooney trained yesterday after missing four games | :37:30. | :37:32. | |
with a leg injury, he hasn't travelled with the squad to France. | :37:33. | :37:35. | |
Manager Jose Mourinho has also refused to rule out the England | :37:36. | :37:38. | |
captain leaving the club this month - saying's he can't | :37:39. | :37:41. | |
Rooney is linked with a move to the Chinese Super League, | :37:42. | :37:45. | |
their tranfer window shuts next week. | :37:46. | :37:47. | |
The former England cricketer Ryan Sidebottom will retire | :37:48. | :37:49. | |
at the end of next season after 20 years of first class cricket. | :37:50. | :37:52. | |
The 39 year old who's currently at Yorkshire won the World 20/20 | :37:53. | :37:56. | |
with England and five county championships | :37:57. | :37:59. | |
In the meeting of two of the new teams in the netball | :38:00. | :38:04. | |
superleague, Wasps came out on top against Sirens. | :38:05. | :38:06. | |
The Coventry based club - who are linked | :38:07. | :38:08. | |
scored 11 unanswered goals in the second quarter. | :38:09. | :38:12. | |
It was enough to prevail 57-43 in Glasgow | :38:13. | :38:18. | |
He was one of the favourite's for the Cheltenham Gold Cup | :38:19. | :38:22. | |
but Thistlecrack has been ruled out for the rest of the season. | :38:23. | :38:25. | |
He's suffered a slight tendon tear in training. | :38:26. | :38:27. | |
It's a blow for training Colin Tizzard after the horse | :38:28. | :38:33. | |
won his first four races over fences this season. | :38:34. | :38:36. | |
And after eating a pie on the bench during their FA Cup defeat | :38:37. | :38:40. | |
to Arsenal - Sutton's reserve goalkeeper Wayne Shaw has resigned | :38:41. | :38:43. | |
after the FA launched an investigation into a betting | :38:44. | :38:45. | |
This was the moment Shaw tucked into the pie - or pasty | :38:46. | :38:59. | |
Gary Lineker tweeted that football is losing its sense of humour | :39:00. | :39:04. | |
But manager Paul Doswell has said the club had no choice, | :39:05. | :39:08. | |
and that Shaw was in tears when they discussed it on the phone. | :39:09. | :39:16. | |
It is a bit of a mess and people are getting quite agitated. Some people | :39:17. | :39:26. | |
making the point that there is a serious point behind it. It is | :39:27. | :39:34. | |
difficult for the association. They knew they were odds being offered on | :39:35. | :39:39. | |
it and some of his mates were betting on it. Do we know what the | :39:40. | :39:48. | |
pie was? Meat and potato. The world oldest person died in 1987. From | :39:49. | :39:58. | |
France. The oldest person alive is an Italian woman at the moment who | :39:59. | :40:06. | |
is the oldest Briton was an 100 and 15-year-old woman. Currently the | :40:07. | :40:15. | |
oldest person in Britain is a woman, 112. What we do know is that we are | :40:16. | :40:21. | |
all living longer. the average life expectancy of women | :40:22. | :40:26. | |
AND men is expected to go above 80 A study from Imperial College shows | :40:27. | :40:32. | |
that men's average life expectancy will go from 79 to 82, | :40:33. | :40:36. | |
but women are already living to 83 years old on average - | :40:37. | :40:40. | |
that'll increase to 85. So we spoke to a group | :40:41. | :40:42. | |
of pensioners in Manchester who revealed their | :40:43. | :40:45. | |
secret to longevity. I have sympathy when it is required. | :40:46. | :41:05. | |
I do most of the things I did as a younger woman. I still do the | :41:06. | :41:09. | |
accounts for the firm are used to work for and think it is all in your | :41:10. | :41:15. | |
head. You have to stop thinking you are so old. Look, in my youth I went | :41:16. | :41:25. | |
all over the country. But... I have my old place and I getting fitter. | :41:26. | :41:38. | |
--I. We just love one another. We never fall out. No. I thankful if I | :41:39. | :41:47. | |
keep going and that is the main thing, enjoy it while you can. Cake | :41:48. | :41:59. | |
and singing! That is the secret to life. | :42:00. | :42:00. | |
Thanks to the members of Age UK's Critchley House Social Centre. | :42:01. | :42:03. | |
Debora Price, a Professor of Gerontology at the University | :42:04. | :42:06. | |
It is incredible that by 2030, we will will be living on average over | :42:07. | :42:27. | |
80. Is it down to better healthcare? Most countries in the world that | :42:28. | :42:33. | |
have seen this transition it was because of improved clean water, | :42:34. | :42:38. | |
better housing, nutrition and especially reduction in infant and | :42:39. | :42:47. | |
maternal mortality. In the last 20- 30 years we have seen reduction in | :42:48. | :42:54. | |
deaths in later life. This is what we are witnessing now, better | :42:55. | :43:01. | |
control of diseases like stroke, control of blood pressure, | :43:02. | :43:04. | |
reductions in some cancers but also reductions in smoking and other | :43:05. | :43:10. | |
things we are trying to get under control. At the moment we have a bit | :43:11. | :43:17. | |
of tension between lifestyles with the increase in diabetes. That is a | :43:18. | :43:26. | |
story across a lot of the high income countries. Life expectancy is | :43:27. | :43:34. | |
upwards but what is the quality of that life? This is the absolutely | :43:35. | :43:41. | |
critical question. What we see is inequality and so some people have | :43:42. | :43:47. | |
poor quality of life and some have a better quality and some have a | :43:48. | :43:52. | |
wonderful marvellous time in their 80s and 90s. Many of the academics | :43:53. | :44:00. | |
working in this field will say at taking health inequalities is the | :44:01. | :44:05. | |
essential thing and that is all the way through life because we know | :44:06. | :44:09. | |
through a substantial body of research that health when you are | :44:10. | :44:15. | |
young, a young adult and in midlife really has an impact in later life. | :44:16. | :44:24. | |
As health and care system we have to tackle these things. Another thing | :44:25. | :44:29. | |
that came through, south Koreans are expected to break the 90 year | :44:30. | :44:36. | |
average. Is there an upper age limit? This is the question and I | :44:37. | :44:44. | |
can tell you, it is hotly debated. What do you think? My dad and I have | :44:45. | :44:51. | |
about about whether the first person who will live to 200 has yet been | :44:52. | :45:01. | |
born. My father tells me we will resolve this bed in another place | :45:02. | :45:05. | |
but I think there is a real chance. As we start to perhaps be able to | :45:06. | :45:12. | |
replace body parts and delay the Fx of ageing may be with genetic... | :45:13. | :45:19. | |
These are scientific futurist ideas. It is an amazing claim... It is not | :45:20. | :45:26. | |
the mainstream view. The mainstream view is that we will probably very | :45:27. | :45:38. | |
slowly carry on increasing life. Some people thought we wouldn't | :45:39. | :45:42. | |
break 90 and now it looks certain we will do that. Not long ago we used | :45:43. | :45:47. | |
to think we've would increase a year of life expectancy for every decade, | :45:48. | :45:50. | |
looks like we're now doing a lot better than that. I think creeping | :45:51. | :45:57. | |
up is the thing people think. Here's the important information, what can | :45:58. | :46:01. | |
we do to live longer, what makes the difference? Good equal access to | :46:02. | :46:05. | |
healthcare, this seems to be one of the... Once you've managed to | :46:06. | :46:11. | |
control infectious disease, people in our country... Not many people | :46:12. | :46:15. | |
are dying of tuberculosis and this kind of thing, it's equal access to | :46:16. | :46:20. | |
healthcare, make it available, make it free and make sure the country | :46:21. | :46:24. | |
has access to it. This is how Japan did it, this is how career does it, | :46:25. | :46:29. | |
it's really important. A fascinating debate, you saying you don't want to | :46:30. | :46:35. | |
go on for ever. Definitely not. It depends. You don't know what's | :46:36. | :46:40. | |
coming down the line but you want to keep going? I'm going to hang on as | :46:41. | :46:44. | |
long as you will have me! I'll see you on the other side! I'm not sure | :46:45. | :46:50. | |
if I will make 200, though! You never know, keep playing golf! Thank | :46:51. | :46:52. | |
you very much. You're watching | :46:53. | :46:53. | |

Princess Diana's dresses, we will be there later and Carol will be | :47:36. | :47:39. | |
telling us all about Storm Doris. Scary. We've had an early warning, | :47:40. | :47:44. | |
we were told last week this could happen and the Daily Express front | :47:45. | :47:45. | |
page this morning: We often say that about the front | :47:46. | :47:53. | |
pages, either chaos or a weather bomb or something like that but it | :47:54. | :47:57. | |
really will get bad over the next few days. I'm not sure about the | :47:58. | :48:02. | |
name Doris for a storm. It's not dangerous enough, it is too kind. | :48:03. | :48:06. | |
Certainly windy on the way to work this morning! Front page of the | :48:07. | :48:10. | |
Times, lots of the papers have picked up on this picture. Boris not | :48:11. | :48:18. | |
Doris. Yes! Jogging yesterday, it is his fitness regime we've been | :48:19. | :48:22. | |
talking about, going out with not just a T-shirt but a fleece and a | :48:23. | :48:28. | |
hat and swimming shorts. A unique outfit for running. Lots of the | :48:29. | :48:33. | |
papers talking about Wayne Rooney potentially going to China. | :48:34. | :48:38. | |
Mourinho's interviewed yesterday and he was refusing to say Wayne Rooney | :48:39. | :48:42. | |
would stay at the club but they're saying ?750,000 a week for going to | :48:43. | :48:47. | |
China for Wayne Rooney and Ollie was saying the Chinese transfer window | :48:48. | :48:50. | |
closes next week so it could happen. Mourinho didn't rule it out | :48:51. | :48:54. | |
yesterday either so watch this space. Interesting. Let's go to Ben | :48:55. | :48:57. | |
with the business news. You're talking about enemies? This | :48:58. | :49:05. | |
is funny, you know if you have a job interview and you get those weird | :49:06. | :49:08. | |
and wonderful questions, a company has put together a list of the top | :49:09. | :49:13. | |
ten weird ones, how would your enemy describe you, there are some | :49:14. | :49:18. | |
brilliant ones, what am I thinking right now? What on your CV is the | :49:19. | :49:22. | |
closest to a lie and they are designed to get you close to the | :49:23. | :49:26. | |
person you are interviewing but some are weird and wonderful. Lots of | :49:27. | :49:30. | |
people telling us about their weird ones so keep those coming in. | :49:31. | :49:33. | |
The recruitment firm Glassdoor have compiled a list of the top | :49:34. | :49:36. | |
They include what vegetable would you be, what's the most | :49:37. | :49:45. | |
So what's the weirdest you've faced, we asked these workers | :49:46. | :49:52. | |
The weirdest question I have had in interview is what's the weirdest | :49:53. | :50:00. | |
thing about me, I was a bit thrown so I said my weirdest food was | :50:01. | :50:04. | |
peanut butter on toast. What I was asked was what part I play in my | :50:05. | :50:10. | |
group of friends, The Joker, the organiser, I said I was the | :50:11. | :50:13. | |
competitive one. The toughest question I was ever asked at an | :50:14. | :50:17. | |
interview was if you could be a bitch to what vegetable would you be | :50:18. | :50:21. | |
and why, I said I would be an onion because I have layers! | :50:22. | :50:24. | |
Neil Clough is a former finalist on the BBC's Apprentice programme. | :50:25. | :50:27. | |
He now runs his own sales recruitment and training business. | :50:28. | :50:30. | |
Good morning to you. Good morning. We know the Apprentice is notorious, | :50:31. | :50:38. | |
the notorious episode where you have to have the interview with the | :50:39. | :50:42. | |
probing questions. Remind us, what was the toughest one you got? It | :50:43. | :50:47. | |
saying a bit of a days really, I'm still battered and bruised but the | :50:48. | :50:50. | |
strangest question was how much does a jumbo jet weigh. Did you know the | :50:51. | :50:59. | |
answer? Absolutely not. They are designed to get you thinking and | :51:00. | :51:03. | |
give the interview at a chance to get to know you. You do this as a | :51:04. | :51:09. | |
day job, what do they really want to discover? The jumbo jet question | :51:10. | :51:13. | |
isn't about the answer but the logical approach you use and for me | :51:14. | :51:17. | |
it was more about when you ask those questions, finding out how the | :51:18. | :51:25. | |
person feels under pressure. We have graduate sales positions so people | :51:26. | :51:29. | |
need to cope with pressure. Off-the-cuff it tests them a bit and | :51:30. | :51:33. | |
also the logical approach to the answer, to see if they can work out | :51:34. | :51:37. | |
the answer even if they don't know what the answer is and their thought | :51:38. | :51:41. | |
process. From the point of view of the employers it's about doing | :51:42. | :51:44. | |
something different and the kind of thing you can't prepare for. If | :51:45. | :51:48. | |
people are going for an interview process, what should they think | :51:49. | :51:52. | |
about and what should they need to prove? The first thing is to be | :51:53. | :51:59. | |
prepared, so many people and they don't understand the business or the | :52:00. | :52:02. | |
person their meeting. Always be prepared is absolutely key but it's | :52:03. | :52:05. | |
also about confidence. You're in an interview, you are there to gain | :52:06. | :52:09. | |
something, not to lose something, so be confident with your answers and | :52:10. | :52:13. | |
in terms of being put on the spot, people have to think fast so I think | :52:14. | :52:16. | |
questions are good that the people under a bit of pressure but at the | :52:17. | :52:21. | |
end of it you can explain why you've asked questions and make sure the | :52:22. | :52:24. | |
person goes away with a good experience, successful or not. Is | :52:25. | :52:27. | |
there such a thing as a right or wrong answer? Annabel says if I was | :52:28. | :52:33. | |
a man what would I be named, she's quite clearly female. Jericho says | :52:34. | :52:38. | |
if you were a shoe, what would you be and why? What biscuit? Tracy in | :52:39. | :52:43. | |
the studio said, Kuqi trample him? What are you trying to get at -- | :52:44. | :52:49. | |
could she trample him. The last question I have no idea! It is about | :52:50. | :52:53. | |
putting someone on the spot. People can go to interviews and be very | :52:54. | :52:57. | |
prepared but they can't be prepared for questions like that so it's | :52:58. | :53:01. | |
about seeing how they handle themselves in those environments. | :53:02. | :53:04. | |
It's a bit of fun as well, isn't it? We can loosen up a bit when we have | :53:05. | :53:09. | |
questions like that and we can get to know the person's personality to | :53:10. | :53:13. | |
see if they fit into the culture of the business. Good to talk to you, a | :53:14. | :53:19. | |
former Apprentice semifinalist and Tracey's answer to the question can | :53:20. | :53:24. | |
you trampoline, she said yes and she was lying! See you later. I got | :53:25. | :53:29. | |
asked if I was an animal, would I be a gorilla or a force. I thought they | :53:30. | :53:34. | |
wanted me to say force but I said gorilla. -- a horse. Widely do you | :53:35. | :53:39. | |
say that? Just because they were aggressive. Why -- why did you say | :53:40. | :53:46. | |
that. I did get the job. Gorilla was clearly the right option. We will | :53:47. | :53:51. | |
talk more about that later! The selection process for BBC Breakfast | :53:52. | :53:55. | |
has changed! It wasn't this job by the way. Far more important | :53:56. | :53:59. | |
questions! We have been promising new Carol all morning. She is at an | :54:00. | :54:05. | |
exhibition of Princess Diana's dresses but we are having technical | :54:06. | :54:09. | |
problems socially will be here at around 7:15am. It will be largely | :54:10. | :54:15. | |
cloudy and mild in the south and west with light patchy rain and | :54:16. | :54:17. | |
drizzle but heavy outbreaks for Wales and central parts of England | :54:18. | :54:23. | |
says Carol on e-mail. Brighter for north-east England and Scotland and | :54:24. | :54:26. | |
sunny spells but with showers in the West, wintry on high ground. I'm so | :54:27. | :54:32. | |
glad you did that and not me, I would never do her weather but she | :54:33. | :54:35. | |
is at Kensington Palace where she's been looking around the beautiful | :54:36. | :54:39. | |
dresses of Diana, Princess of Wales. We've already had a sneak preview, | :54:40. | :54:44. | |
Allison Freeman has been there to look at some of the gowns on | :54:45. | :54:46. | |
display. The eyes of the world followed her | :54:47. | :54:53. | |
and her fashion choices. Princess Diana's style both reflected the | :54:54. | :54:58. | |
time while influencing others. And now fans of Diana can see her most | :54:59. | :55:02. | |
well-known outfits at an exhibition at her former home, Kensington | :55:03. | :55:07. | |
Palace. It's in this room that we first meet Lady Diana Spencer when | :55:08. | :55:12. | |
she's about to step onto that international stage. So this room | :55:13. | :55:17. | |
really reflects her early love of frills, raffles, lace. She really | :55:18. | :55:22. | |
enjoyed that sort of new Romantic style. The exhibition charts how her | :55:23. | :55:27. | |
tastes developed and style matured, featuring iconic dresses by 11 | :55:28. | :55:31. | |
different designers. This point in the exhibition really marks the | :55:32. | :55:34. | |
moment when Diana became more confident and playful in her fashion | :55:35. | :55:40. | |
choices. Famously in 1987 she made the daring choice to wear one red | :55:41. | :55:44. | |
gloves and one black glove with this dress on and officials two official | :55:45. | :55:49. | |
visit to Spain. Victor Edelstein designed one of the princesses most | :55:50. | :55:56. | |
famous dresses when John Travolta whisked her around the dance floor | :55:57. | :55:59. | |
at the White House. When she ordered it I don't know when she was going | :56:00. | :56:04. | |
to wear it, I don't think she did either but she just ordered it | :56:05. | :56:07. | |
because she liked it and then she wore it at the White House. I was | :56:08. | :56:12. | |
talking to the curator at Hampton court and she said it marked her | :56:13. | :56:16. | |
transition from being rather girlish to a sophisticated woman, perhaps | :56:17. | :56:21. | |
that's true, it's not a girlish dress. Perhaps that's also what made | :56:22. | :56:27. | |
it so noticeable, and dancing with John Travolta helps. As her marriage | :56:28. | :56:32. | |
came to an end, Diana's style became more pared down. This red dress from | :56:33. | :56:37. | |
Catherine Walker in among some of the most recognisable at the time. | :56:38. | :56:42. | |
Her life was changing, she was very involved in charity work and I think | :56:43. | :56:46. | |
she wanted to communicate the fact that she wasn't just a clothes | :56:47. | :56:50. | |
horse, a fashion clothes horse, shoe actually was a working mother, she | :56:51. | :57:01. | |
had a job to do and she was deeply committed to many of the charities | :57:02. | :57:04. | |
that she was patron of. Diana wore the final dress in the exhibition to | :57:05. | :57:08. | |
the preview of an auction of her clothes. The proceeds went to an | :57:09. | :57:11. | |
AIDS charity. She sold 79 of her most famous gowns and the press | :57:12. | :57:15. | |
reported that this was a closing chapter on her old life and style | :57:16. | :57:19. | |
and embarking on a new one. Diana's fashion story opens to the public on | :57:20. | :57:22. | |
Friday with those memorable dresses remaining display for two years. | :57:23. | :57:25. | |
Allison Freeman, BBC News. I'm going to go and see that! Some | :57:26. | :57:28. | |

An extra ?200 million in emergency humanitarian aid has been promised | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
by the Government to tackle a famine in South Sudan and Somalia. | :03:15. | :03:17. | |
The International Development Secretary, Priti Patel, | :03:18. | :03:19. | |
said the additional funds would provide food, water | :03:20. | :03:21. | |
and emergency health care for more than two million people. | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
Here's our diplomatic correspondent, James Landale. | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
In parts of war-torn South Sudan, people are now dying of starvation | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
and famine has been officially declared. | :03:34. | :03:36. | |
The UN and charities say that Somalia, Yemen and north-east | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
Nigeria are facing similar humanitarian crisis with millions | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
of people having no reliable access to food. | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
So today the International Development Secretary, | :03:48. | :03:48. | |
Priti Patel, is promising a new package of emergency aid | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
She said there will be an extra ?200 million made available this year, | :03:53. | :03:59. | |
this would include emergency food and water for a million people | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
in Somalia and food assistance for 500,000 people in South Sudan. | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
There will be also emergency health care and nutritional support | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
for starving children in both countries. | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
Britain's leadership will basically mean we will be saving lives, | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
bringing vital assistance to people in desperate need but also putting | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
the call out to the international community to get them to step up, | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
to galvanise their support so that we can have a strong | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
international response to what quite frankly could be | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
Ms Patel says that the international response so far had been inadequate | :04:33. | :04:40. | |
and the world sleepwalking towards catastrophe and she called | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
for a faster, more effective humanitarian system. | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
The problem is that these crisis have been caused as much by conflict | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
as by drought, and no amount of aid will end the violence that has | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
brought so much suffering to these countries. | :04:56. | :04:57. | |
A convicted murderer is on the run this morning after armed men | :04:58. | :05:07. | |
helped him escape during a hospital visit. | :05:08. | :05:09. | |
Shaun Walmsley, is one of four men serving life sentences for a fatal | :05:10. | :05:12. | |
Our reporter Holly Hamilton is outside Aintree University Hospital | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
for us this morning, what's the latest Holly? | :05:19. | :05:27. | |
From what we understand, he was brought here yesterday afternoon | :05:28. | :05:37. | |
from Liverpool prison just three miles away. He was escorted by two | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
prison officers. When they were returning to the jail, coming back | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
to their car, they were ambushed by two men both understood to be | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
brandishing weapons - one a knife the other a gun. They forced the | :05:52. | :05:57. | |
officers to release Shaun Walmsley before taking off in a gold coloured | :05:58. | :06:03. | |
Volvo. Neither of the officers were thankfully injured. They were able | :06:04. | :06:08. | |
to raise the alarm quickly. Police are working with police | :06:09. | :06:14. | |
organisations across the country to try and trace him. He was convicted | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
for murder and is described as dangerous. It is understood he is | :06:20. | :06:26. | |
still with those two accomplices and that they are both believed to be | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
armed and dangerous so the public is advised not to approach of the group | :06:31. | :06:37. | |
but if they do have information to call 999 immediately. | :06:38. | :06:43. | |

from two years in US detention at Guantanamo Bay. | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
And this is where he chose to end his life, | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
Here, the BBC has been covering the intense fighting | :07:41. | :07:43. | |
by Iraqi forces to dislodge IS from their second city. | :07:44. | :07:46. | |
Al-Harith's journey began straight after the 9/11 attacks. | :07:47. | :07:48. | |
In October 2001, he travelled to Quetta in Pakistan. | :07:49. | :07:51. | |
He was arrested the same year and eventually taken | :07:52. | :07:53. | |
In 2002, he was transferred to Guantanamo Bay. | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
Two years later, he was repatriated to Britain and released, | :07:58. | :08:00. | |
reportedly winning compensation from the Government. | :08:01. | :08:01. | |
Then, in April 2014, he entered Syria from Turkey to join | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
I'm actually mystified as to how this person travelled out to Syria, | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
I can only assume under a false name or a false passport, actually. | :08:10. | :08:12. | |
But people who served time in Guantanamo would have been | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
watched carefully by the British and American | :08:16. | :08:17. | |
intelligence agencies, in my view. | :08:18. | :08:18. | |
Al-Harith was one of hundreds of men taken from Afghanistan to be | :08:19. | :08:21. | |
imprisoned in Guantanamo Bay without trial. | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
When you have the dozens, if not hundreds of suspects, | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
there is very little the security services can do to monitor | :08:31. | :08:33. | |
In the end, though, it seems he chose to die for a group | :08:34. | :08:40. | |
that's committed unspeakable acts on innocent people. | :08:41. | :08:42. | |
The cost of essential repairs to school buildings in England has | :08:43. | :08:55. | |
already reached almost ?7 billion, according to the National Audit | :08:56. | :08:57. | |
In a report published today it warns that figure could double by 2020. | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
But ministers have also spent money on creating places in new free | :09:02. | :09:04. | |
schools, some of which are under-subscribed. | :09:05. | :09:06. | |
England's schools are in high demand. | :09:07. | :09:09. | |
Places for 400,000 more pupils are needed by 2021, | :09:10. | :09:11. | |
and safe, high quality buildings are hard to come by. | :09:12. | :09:14. | |
Many schools are already in a sorry state. | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
Most were built before the mid-1970s, meaning worn out walls | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
and windows or faulty electrics are a problem. | :09:21. | :09:27. | |
It will cost an estimated ?6.7 billion to fix major | :09:28. | :09:30. | |
The National Audit Office says the bill could grow sharply. | :09:31. | :09:35. | |
I think the challenge for the department is that | :09:36. | :09:37. | |
if you don't address deterioration promptly, | :09:38. | :09:39. | |
those buildings continue to deteriorate and then either | :09:40. | :09:41. | |
they can no longer be used for schools or at least it costs | :09:42. | :09:45. | |
more to refurbish them, because the deterioration gets | :09:46. | :09:47. | |
As well as repairs to existing schools, the government is planning | :09:48. | :09:55. | |
to open 500 new free schools over the next five years. | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
But auditors said a lack of suitable land meant large sums | :10:00. | :10:02. | |
were being paid to secure sites and they raised concerns that | :10:03. | :10:05. | |
in some cases the programme had created places where | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
The Department for Education insisted free schools were vital | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
to make places available and that it was making a huge | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
investment in the school estate to rebuild and refurbish buildings. | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
The Bill giving the Prime Minister permission to trigger the start | :10:20. | :10:28. | |
of the Brexit process has been given an unopposed second reading | :10:29. | :10:31. | |
It will now be discussed in committee where some peers | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
are expected to attempt to amend the proposed legislation. | :10:36. | :10:41. | |
By 2030 both men and women in the UK are now expected to live | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
until they're over 80 years old, for the first time. | :10:46. | :10:47. | |
Scientists at Imperial College London looked at 35 industrialised | :10:48. | :10:50. | |
nations and have found that South Koreans, on average, | :10:51. | :10:53. | |
Reaching an average of 90. Let us do what you think of that. Lloyds bank | :10:54. | :11:13. | |
have published their results. I have been on the phone just now. Excuse | :11:14. | :11:22. | |
the scrap note. They report is profit up 157%, a staggering amount | :11:23. | :11:28. | |
of money. ?4.2 billion will last year and that is up significantly in | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
the year before. The reason why we are interested in Lloyd is because | :11:35. | :11:41. | |
it was loaned and was given a bailout. The government has been | :11:42. | :11:48. | |
slowly returning it back into private hands. Now we are less than | :11:49. | :11:58. | |
5% -- on. That is interesting in itself but we also know that Lloyds | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
has been closing branches and trying to save ?1.4 billion in costs and we | :12:03. | :12:07. | |
know the bank has been hit pretty sharply by the cost of payment | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
protection insurance. They are keen to draw a line under it so they have | :12:12. | :12:17. | |
been trying to save money as a result. Contrasting those fortunes, | :12:18. | :12:24. | |
on Friday we will hear from IBS. It was in a similar position at the | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
height of the financial crisis and it is expected to post a massive | :12:31. | :12:38. | |
loss so it contrasts the ?4.2 billion we have seen this morning. | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
It shows how the fortunes of two banks in a similar position have | :12:43. | :12:48. | |
been different in the past few years. Thank you very much. Plenty | :12:49. | :12:51. | |
more coming up later. It is 712 AEM. A week before the EU referendum | :12:52. | :12:58. | |
vote in June last year, To mark the anniversary | :12:59. | :13:00. | |
of her death, her family wants to celebrate her desire to bring | :13:01. | :13:06. | |
communities closer with a series Jo's sister Kim Leadbeater | :13:07. | :13:09. | |
joins us now. Thank you for coming in. How did you | :13:10. | :13:21. | |
and the family decide this was the best way to remember her? It has | :13:22. | :13:27. | |
been an extremely difficult period of time for us. Brendan and I did a | :13:28. | :13:32. | |
lot of thinking over the Christmas period about how we could work your | :13:33. | :13:41. | |
way through June. I think you have a choice in life and our choice was | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
not to give in to self pity and anger. We wanted to celebrate | :13:47. | :13:55. | |
everything that was so amazing about her and her love of people and that | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
is why The Great Get-Together was born. When you lose someone, the | :14:00. | :14:11. | |
first of very difficult. The first Christmas, the first anniversary. | :14:12. | :14:16. | |
How important is it that you embrace the year away she would have advised | :14:17. | :14:23. | |
you? It is really important. We are doing all right as a family we are | :14:24. | :14:28. | |
doing very well but you are right when anniversaries come around it is | :14:29. | :14:33. | |
very difficult but we have been so well supported by the public, by the | :14:34. | :14:41. | |
community. People have come together and really supported us. That is one | :14:42. | :14:46. | |
thing that keeps you going and I also keep thinking what would Jo | :14:47. | :14:52. | |
wants me to do? She would be mortified if I was at home with the | :14:53. | :14:59. | |
curtain shut, I am not going to do that. Even though they must be days | :15:00. | :15:07. | |
you want to do that, a natural reaction to losing someone you love | :15:08. | :15:14. | |
so much. I sure there will be those moments and there have been. But I | :15:15. | :15:19. | |
want to have a legacy that Jo would be proud of. That might change. | :15:20. | :15:26. | |
Things like get tougher and they probably well but for now if I have | :15:27. | :15:30. | |
the energy and I have the strength to choose, I am going to choose to | :15:31. | :15:35. | |
do something really positive that she will be proud of. -- would be. | :15:36. | :15:45. | |
For the anniversary there could be 100,000 events? What kind of things | :15:46. | :15:51. | |
will they the? It's whatever people want to do to get together with | :15:52. | :15:55. | |
their communities based around food, what's not to love, we have all got | :15:56. | :16:01. | |
to eat. We love our food, proper Yorkshire girls, people can do what | :16:02. | :16:05. | |
they want, if you want a TEA Party, then go for it, barbecue, party in | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
the street, whatever you want to do to bring people together and that's | :16:10. | :16:12. | |
people you might already know but people you don't know as well. Reach | :16:13. | :16:18. | |
out to your community, so get together and make this a positive | :16:19. | :16:21. | |
feeling this weekend. I'm going to try to go through the whole | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
community and have an early breakfast, like you guys probably | :16:26. | :16:30. | |
do, lunch somewhere, then a lunch, afternoon tea, then in the evening | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
were going to go to the local mosque and break the fast with the Muslim | :16:35. | :16:40. | |
community, because it falls within Ramadan. It involves food and you're | :16:41. | :16:43. | |
going to enjoy it because you love your food and many do, but | :16:44. | :16:47. | |
underneath that there is a lot we talk about now that divides us and | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
things that take us further apart, but I suppose for you Jo's legacy is | :16:52. | :16:57. | |
about celebrating those things that bring us together. Absolutely. This | :16:58. | :17:03. | |
is how we were brought up, I thought about this so much, what made | :17:04. | :17:06. | |
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev Jo and what makes me me, it's about people and | :17:07. | :17:10. | |
bringing people together and that's what we really cared about. It's not | :17:11. | :17:15. | |
focusing on the things that divide us and what we disagree on, it's all | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
about what we agree on and what we can do rather than what we can't do. | :17:21. | :17:24. | |
There's lots of negativity in the world at the moment and I'm not | :17:25. | :17:27. | |
going to pretend to even understand that but I do understand people and | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
how much strength and support you get from those around you. That's | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
the legacy we want to create for Jo, concentrate on what we've got in | :17:38. | :17:42. | |
common. And you're focusing on charities that mean a lot to her? | :17:43. | :17:48. | |
Foundation, people are massively donating to that and thank you for | :17:49. | :17:54. | |
that, focusing on people that she really cared about, people doing | :17:55. | :17:57. | |
lots of amazing work in lots of different ways. Hopefully locally we | :17:58. | :18:02. | |
will do a lot more events based around the more in common theme from | :18:03. | :18:07. | |
her maiden speech, fun runs, bike rides, walks through the town and | :18:08. | :18:12. | |
all sorts of good stuff. The community round there is wonderful. | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
I knew quite a lot of people before Jo was killed, but I can't tell you | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
how inspiring those people are. This isn't about me, it's about the | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
community and the people around us. Kim, thank you for coming in and | :18:26. | :18:35. | |
telling us about that. I know we will be speaking to Brendan, Jo's | :18:36. | :18:38. | |
brother, later. 17th and 18th of June, the Great Get Together. | :18:39. | :18:40. | |
And to see how you can get involved, or to see what events are taking | :18:41. | :18:44. | |

All the intimation is on there for you. | :18:47. | :18:50. | |
The government has given ?200 million to buy food, | :18:51. | :18:56. | |
of famine in South Sudan and Somalia. | :18:57. | :18:59. | |
an unprecedented humanitarian crisis. | :19:00. | :19:01. | |
Police in Merseyside are searching for an escaped prisoner. | :19:02. | :19:03. | |
was on a hospital visit in Liverpool. | :19:04. | :19:06. | |
Officers say he's dangerous and the public should not | :19:07. | :19:09. | |
We are trying to bring you the weather this morning, a few | :19:10. | :19:23. | |
technical issues with Carol at Kensington Palace. Let's try. Here | :19:24. | :19:28. | |
we go. She's in a very special place and she can bring us the weather, | :19:29. | :19:33. | |
fingers crossed, here we go, Carol, can you hear us? I can hear you loud | :19:34. | :19:38. | |
and clear, good morning, everyone and what a treat to be here at | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
Kensington Palace. It's because Diana: Her fashion story launches on | :19:43. | :19:47. | |
Friday showing her dresses from when she was Lady Diana Spencer to the | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
glamorous Princess of Wales we knew and loved. Look at this one, what a | :19:53. | :19:57. | |
stunner, look at the detail down the back, she wore it to a banquet in | :19:58. | :20:02. | |
Saudi Arabia and the Falcon is the emblem bird of Saudi Arabia. When | :20:03. | :20:07. | |
she went to charity functions she tended to dress more simply in a | :20:08. | :20:10. | |
simple suit so the attention wasn't on her clothes but on her charity | :20:11. | :20:16. | |
work. Interestingly she never wore a hat when visiting hospitals because | :20:17. | :20:19. | |
she said she couldn't cuddle children then. Inside it's pretty | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
nice but outside for some it's rather inclement to put it mildly. | :20:24. | :20:27. | |
Blustery or very windy depending where you are and we will see rain | :20:28. | :20:34. | |
at times today. We start at 9am across Scotland, the strongest winds | :20:35. | :20:38. | |
are in the Northern Isles, the far north and heading to Aberdeenshire. | :20:39. | :20:42. | |
Here you're looking at gusts of 60, 70 mph or more, that could lead to | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
some disruption. The rest of Scotland and into northern England, | :20:48. | :20:50. | |
some bright weather with showers around, though. From the Midlands | :20:51. | :20:54. | |
into East Anglia and into southern counties, quite a bit of cloud and | :20:55. | :20:58. | |
here we have a weak weather front producing patchy rain. Into the | :20:59. | :21:02. | |
south-west, murky conditions for you this morning and in Wales, expect | :21:03. | :21:05. | |
heavy rain through the day because that's what's coming your way and | :21:06. | :21:09. | |
some do have that already. For Northern Ireland, a bright start for | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
you today but the rain will be coming to you later on in the day. | :21:15. | :21:19. | |
So as we go through the course of the day the strong winds continue | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
for a time in the north-east of Scotland and again we're looking at | :21:24. | :21:26. | |
dry weather for Scotland, Northern Ireland and northern England for | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
much of the day with a few showers. But in the south, through the | :21:31. | :21:33. | |
Midlands, East Anglia, Wales, a weather front flips around, | :21:34. | :21:37. | |
rejuvenates and moves back north. That will being ported as we go | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
through this evening and overnight because as it moves northwards as | :21:42. | :21:46. | |
heavy rain it will join forces with Storm Doris from Northern Ireland -- | :21:47. | :21:50. | |
that will be in ported. Through the course of the night of the wind will | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
also start to strengthen and the wind will be a feature tomorrow. The | :21:55. | :21:58. | |
Met Office does have an amber weather warning out and the winds | :21:59. | :22:03. | |
particularly strong across north Wales, the north Midlands, East | :22:04. | :22:07. | |
Anglia and parts of northern England were even inland we could have gusts | :22:08. | :22:12. | |
of 60 or 70 mph. To the south of that inland we could have gusts of | :22:13. | :22:17. | |
60 mph. Storm Doris is crossing our shores and tomorrow morning first | :22:18. | :22:21. | |
thing we could have snow, heavy snow in the southern uplands and snow at | :22:22. | :22:26. | |
low doubles in the southern Central Lowlands -- low levels. It is a fast | :22:27. | :22:34. | |
moving storm, it will be in the North Sea before the end of the day | :22:35. | :22:38. | |
and we'll see a return to sunshine and showers and the winds slowly | :22:39. | :22:41. | |
starting to come down. By the time we get to Friday, a drier and | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
quieter day weatherwise. But we do have some rain coming in from the | :22:46. | :22:49. | |
west and lighter winds. So it's all go for the next 24 hours anyway. | :22:50. | :22:52. | |
It's always all go for you, Carol. Thank you very much indeed! She's | :22:53. | :22:57. | |
always on it, isn't she? Nearly a quarter of high street | :22:58. | :23:00. | |
shops do not have wheelchair access and only one in ten offer equipment | :23:01. | :23:03. | |
for hearing aid users, by the not for profit | :23:04. | :23:06. | |
organisation, DisabledGo. As part of the BBC's | :23:07. | :23:09. | |
Disability Works Week, our correspondent Nikki Fox looks | :23:10. | :23:11. | |
at how the fashion industry targets disabled consumers who have | :23:12. | :23:15. | |
a collective spending power of ?249 pounds, otherwise known | :23:16. | :23:17. | |
as the purple pound. The changing face of the British | :23:18. | :23:24. | |
high street has for many disabled And this lack of visible disability | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
has spurred on one woman This shop in London is swapping | :23:29. | :23:32. | |
its regular mannequin Sophie Morgan designed this | :23:33. | :23:36. | |
wheelchair for a sitting mannequin, a business she started | :23:37. | :23:43. | |
back in in 2010. During the 2012 Paralympics, | :23:44. | :23:45. | |
Sophie got her product into a big But as soon as the Games finished, | :23:46. | :23:51. | |
her Mannequal was taken out Young men and women going out | :23:52. | :23:55. | |
shopping don't feel welcome and do not feel like they're part | :23:56. | :24:00. | |
of the conversation when it comes I wanted this chair to be a symbol | :24:01. | :24:03. | |
of inclusion from the shops so that I could come past this shop | :24:04. | :24:10. | |
and I know this shop would have thought about how to style | :24:11. | :24:13. | |
somebody in a wheelchair, but furthermore that their shop | :24:14. | :24:16. | |
is accessible and that they've got Can you see in that shop front | :24:17. | :24:19. | |
window there there's a mannequin sat down in a design | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
that's a wheelchair. Did you notice it was a wheelchair? | :24:25. | :24:26. | |
I hadn't noticed. What do you make of it? | :24:27. | :24:30. | |
Absolutely great. Why not? | :24:31. | :24:32. | |
You know, fashion is for everybody. You saw them last year sort of doing | :24:33. | :24:34. | |
bigger mannequins and stuff, so it's good they're getting | :24:35. | :24:38. | |
mannequins in wheelchair People are becoming, like, | :24:39. | :24:40. | |
more socially aware. It's not just about seeing | :24:41. | :24:45. | |
disability on the high street, Making sure disabled people can get | :24:46. | :24:50. | |
into shops so they can Of the nearly 1,300 fashion | :24:51. | :24:54. | |
retailers the organisation DisabledGo visited, 23% had | :24:55. | :24:58. | |
no step free access. 90% were unable to offer hearing | :24:59. | :25:07. | |
loops, a type of sound system for hearing aid users and 62% didn't | :25:08. | :25:12. | |
give their staff training on how So from the high street | :25:13. | :25:15. | |
to high-end fashion. Designers Teatum Jones | :25:16. | :25:23. | |
used two disabled models to launch their newest | :25:24. | :25:25. | |
collection, which opened We haven't adapted anything | :25:26. | :25:27. | |
in this collection. We approached the styling | :25:28. | :25:33. | |
and the casting in this collection The Minister for Disabled People | :25:34. | :25:35. | |
Penny Mordaunt wants businesses to be open to everyone | :25:36. | :25:42. | |
but the British Retail Consortium point out that shop owners can be | :25:43. | :25:46. | |

Plenty of money to be spent. The purple pound. We need to work out | :26:16. | :26:19. | |
why it's called that. Can you let us know! | :26:20. | :26:20. | |
Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. | :26:21. | :29:41. | |
Hello, this is Breakfast with Dan Walker and Sally Nugent. | :29:42. | :29:56. | |
An extra ?200 million in emergency humanitarian aid has been promised | :29:57. | :29:59. | |
by the Government to tackle a famine in South Sudan and Somalia. | :30:00. | :30:06. | |
The international development secretary, | :30:07. | :30:07. | |
Priti Patel, said the additional funds would provide food, | :30:08. | :30:09. | |
water and emergency health care for more than two million people. | :30:10. | :30:13. | |
In parts of war-torn South Sudan, people are now dying of starvation | :30:14. | :30:16. | |
and famine has been officially declared. | :30:17. | :30:18. | |
The UN and charities say that Somalia, Yemen and north-east | :30:19. | :30:21. | |
Nigeria are facing similar humanitarian crisis with millions | :30:22. | :30:23. | |
of people having no reliable access to food. | :30:24. | :30:25. | |
A convicted murderer is on the run after armed men helped him escape | :30:26. | :30:28. | |
Shaun Walmsley is one of four men serving life sentences | :30:29. | :30:32. | |
for a fatal stabbing in Liverpool in 2014. | :30:33. | :30:34. | |
He fled from outside Aintree University Hospital | :30:35. | :30:36. | |
as he was getting into a car with prison officers. | :30:37. | :30:39. | |
Merseyside Police said two men, believed to be armed with a gun | :30:40. | :30:42. | |
The British fighter believed to have detonated a vehicle filled with | :30:43. | :31:03. | |
explosive has spent time in Guantanamo Bay. He was detained but | :31:04. | :31:12. | |
freed in 2004 after lobbying from the British government. | :31:13. | :31:15. | |
Lloyds Bank has reported it's highest full year profit | :31:16. | :31:17. | |
The bank said pretax profits were 4.2 billion, | :31:18. | :31:23. | |
almost three times higher than last year. | :31:24. | :31:25. | |
The profit is a boost to the British government as it aims to return | :31:26. | :31:28. | |
Lloyds to full private ownership in the next few months | :31:29. | :31:31. | |
after the bank was bailed out back in 2008 during the financial crisis. | :31:32. | :31:35. | |
The cost of essential repairs to school buildings in England has | :31:36. | :31:38. | |
already reached almost 7 billion pounds, according | :31:39. | :31:40. | |
In a report published today, it warns that figure | :31:41. | :31:43. | |
But ministers have also spent money on creating places in new free | :31:44. | :31:48. | |
schools, some of which are under-subscribed. | :31:49. | :31:55. | |
The first anniversary of the murder of the Labour MP, | :31:56. | :31:58. | |
Jo Cox, will be marked by street parties and picnics | :31:59. | :32:01. | |
Up to 100,000 events will be held throughout | :32:02. | :32:04. | |
The MP was killed in her west Yorkshire constituency just before | :32:05. | :32:08. | |
Her husband, Brendan Cox, has said The Great Get Together, | :32:09. | :32:12. | |
would be a "fitting tribute" to his wife. | :32:13. | :32:14. | |
The plans will be launched by the Duchess of Cornwall later today. | :32:15. | :32:22. | |
Jo Cox's husband, Brendan, will join us later. | :32:23. | :32:30. | |

Champions League things become a little bit tentative. And sometimes | :33:22. | :33:28. | |
a little bit dull. But it was not the case. It was bonkers. Sometimes | :33:29. | :33:35. | |
interesting to follow social media and the Manchester City Twitter feed | :33:36. | :33:42. | |
it gave up the ghost and posted, it is madness! It was incredibly mad. | :33:43. | :33:46. | |
Pep Guardiola says he expects more of the same when they head to Monaco | :33:47. | :33:50. | |
for the second leg of their Champions league tie. | :33:51. | :33:53. | |
It was a manic night night at the Etihad Stadium, | :33:54. | :33:57. | |
Remember the Manchester United and Chelsea flop Radamel Falcao, | :33:58. | :34:04. | |
he had a penalty saved but was brilliant last night | :34:05. | :34:07. | |
he scored twice for the french league leaders. | :34:08. | :34:09. | |

Sergio Aguero's second made it three-all. | :34:20. | :34:21. | |
John Stones addded a fourth then Leroy Sane | :34:22. | :34:23. | |
I think it is a good - sopmething is specia lfor | :34:24. | :34:30. | |
the footbal when two teams want to play in that way - | :34:31. | :34:34. | |
attack and attack - then the football is marvelous. | :34:35. | :34:36. | |
I think everybody has to congratulate... | :34:37. | :34:38. | |
Today I am happier than my colleague, than Monaco but of course | :34:39. | :34:41. | |
Tuesday we are out and of course that team, if one team can score | :34:42. | :34:45. | |
a thousand million goals, it is Monaco. | :34:46. | :34:47. | |
In the night's other tie, Atletico Madrid won 4-2 | :34:48. | :34:49. | |

Manchester United are in France with a 3-0 lead ahead | :35:18. | :35:20. | |
of the second leg of their Europa League tie | :35:21. | :35:29. | |
We play without the weight of the Premier League, we play light and | :35:30. | :35:37. | |
for that reason I hope we can show our football. We know they are | :35:38. | :35:40. | |
better than us but we want to fight. Manchester United are in France | :35:41. | :35:43. | |
with a 3-0 lead ahead of the second leg of | :35:44. | :35:46. | |
their Europa League tie Although Wayne Rooney trained | :35:47. | :35:49. | |
yesterday after missing four games with a leg injury, he hasn't | :35:50. | :35:51. | |
travelled with the squad. Manager Jose Mourinho has also | :35:52. | :35:54. | |
refused to rule out the England captain leaving the club this | :35:55. | :35:57. | |
month - saying's he can't Rooney has been linked with a move | :35:58. | :35:59. | |

Ryan Sidebottom will retire at the end of next season after 20 | :36:05. | :36:09. | |
years of first class cricket. The 39 year-old who's currently | :36:10. | :36:13. | |
at Yorkshire won the World Twenty20 with England and five | :36:14. | :36:18. | |
county championships. He's taken over a 1000 wickets | :36:19. | :36:21. | |
and says he's always tried to play We've seen the first matches of this | :36:22. | :36:25. | |
season Netball Superleague over Two of the new franchises in the ten | :36:26. | :36:33. | |
team compettion faced It was a sell-out at | :36:34. | :36:40. | |
the Emirates Arena as coventry based Wasps, who are linked | :36:41. | :36:44. | |
to the Rugby team, came out The second quarter was crucial | :36:45. | :36:47. | |
as they scored 11 unanswered goals One of the favourite's for next | :36:48. | :36:51. | |
month's Cheltenham Gold Cup Thistlecrack is out | :36:52. | :36:55. | |
for the rest of the season. After suffering a slight | :36:56. | :36:58. | |
tendon tear in training. The Colin Tizzard trained 9 year | :36:59. | :37:00. | |
old won his first 4 races over fences this season including | :37:01. | :37:04. | |
the King George at Kepmpton Just returning to football, | :37:05. | :37:06. | |
after eating a pie on the bench during their FA Cup | :37:07. | :37:12. | |
defeat to Arsenal - Sutton's reserve goalkeeper | :37:13. | :37:16. | |
Wayne Shaw has resigned after the FA launched an investigation | :37:17. | :37:19. | |
into a betting stunt This was the moment Shaw tucked | :37:20. | :37:21. | |
into the pie - or pasty Gary Lineker tweeted that football | :37:22. | :37:29. | |
is losing its sense of humour But manager Paul Doswell has said | :37:30. | :37:35. | |
the club had no choice, and that Shaw was in tears | :37:36. | :37:42. | |
when they discussed it on the phone. it reminds me, I have not had my | :37:43. | :37:56. | |
Breakfast. It is a bit sad, it has been a great performance from Sutton | :37:57. | :38:01. | |
and this as detracted a lot. Absolutely. That would make us | :38:02. | :38:09. | |
sponsored the whole evening and they offered odds and some of his mates | :38:10. | :38:15. | |
had did make a bob out of it. FA are in a difficult position because they | :38:16. | :38:21. | |
have strict rules. A guy in a play would not affect the result... His | :38:22. | :38:29. | |
lips three nights a week in a little room at the club? That is how the | :38:30. | :38:39. | |
club survive. Let's be honest, he does not look like a reserve | :38:40. | :38:44. | |
goalkeeper but the groundsman as well. | :38:45. | :38:45. | |
The impact of fake news on society is already being widely discussed, | :38:46. | :38:48. | |
the Government recently launched an inquiry into the threat it | :38:49. | :38:51. | |
Mr Corbyn accused us of that on this very couch. | :38:52. | :39:03. | |
But what impact is the phenomenon having | :39:04. | :39:05. | |
Ricky Boleto from CBBC's Newsround has been to one school to see | :39:06. | :39:09. | |
if the pupils there can spot the difference | :39:10. | :39:11. | |
We've given this classroom six articles to read, | :39:12. | :39:14. | |
but what they don't know is that every story is fake news. | :39:15. | :39:18. | |
I love the UFO because you can see it really clearly and most other | :39:19. | :39:32. | |
pictures with UFOs and stuff like that, you can't really | :39:33. | :39:35. | |
The one I most enjoyed was the baby one. | :39:36. | :39:45. | |
When I was a baby I was quite hairy so I think I believe this. | :39:46. | :39:49. | |
Do you think that picture's real? Yeah. | :39:50. | :39:53. | |
I would say the UFO one, it's all the detail, | :39:54. | :39:55. | |
you don't really see a story like that every single day. | :39:56. | :39:59. | |
I don't think they'd put it in if it wasn't real. | :40:00. | :40:04. | |
Maybe one or two were not true, they just sounded | :40:05. | :40:08. | |
What happens if I told you that every story here was fake? | :40:09. | :40:15. | |
I would be... Like, surprised. | :40:16. | :40:21. | |
I'm telling you that all these stories aren't true, | :40:22. | :40:25. | |
they are fake news. Oh. | :40:26. | :40:30. | |
They looked like they were actually on the news. | :40:31. | :40:33. | |
Ricky joins us now - along with Will Hoy, | :40:34. | :40:46. | |
the Director of the independent fact-checking charity Full Facts. | :40:47. | :40:49. | |
It is a telling comment from one of the children who said I do not think | :40:50. | :40:58. | |
they would put them in if they were not real and that is the heart of | :40:59. | :41:02. | |
the problem is that it? You would presume straightaway it was real | :41:03. | :41:08. | |
news. These days kids ceased up on the Internet and social media and | :41:09. | :41:13. | |
they presume straightaway that it is a real news story. They have no idea | :41:14. | :41:19. | |
it is fake. You have satire, other fake news were maybe fax have not | :41:20. | :41:25. | |
been checked. The six stories we gave to them were completely made up | :41:26. | :41:29. | |
and lots of the children did not quite get it. We are surprised how | :41:30. | :41:35. | |
fully they believed everything they saw? Yes, I was. It was exciting to | :41:36. | :41:44. | |
do that with children because they are growing up in this new world | :41:45. | :41:47. | |
with a thousand different websites they can come across and they have | :41:48. | :41:52. | |
to think about what is true or not. There is a lot those children have | :41:53. | :41:57. | |
to learn before they can go through social media. Lots of people | :41:58. | :42:04. | |
accusing people of fake news that the reason the massive difference | :42:05. | :42:09. | |
between what is misleading all what might be wrong and an true. People | :42:10. | :42:22. | |
from Macedonia creating websites completely made up simply from the | :42:23. | :42:27. | |
advertising and that is completely fake news but what we are seeing | :42:28. | :42:34. | |
now, those e-mails you get that tell you you are about to inherit ?1 | :42:35. | :42:42. | |
million, news sites could look like proper news sites. Throughout the | :42:43. | :42:49. | |
last couple of days, we have been looking at this in detail. We went | :42:50. | :42:54. | |
to speed and they have been doing big study, so have the BBC, and they | :42:55. | :43:00. | |
found out the last three months of the US election there were more fake | :43:01. | :43:05. | |
stories shed than real stories and it is a big problem over there and | :43:06. | :43:09. | |
it is becoming a big robin here. How do you explain to children, how do | :43:10. | :43:14. | |
you teach them what might be real or what might be fake? It is obvious | :43:15. | :43:20. | |
stuff- look for the sources, check the quotes. A lot of kids would not | :43:21. | :43:26. | |
be worried about doing that but we tell them to take a step back and | :43:27. | :43:33. | |
triple check it. We'll was asked, how do you know that? Can you show | :43:34. | :43:40. | |
was your source? How do you know the number of illegal immigrants, they | :43:41. | :43:47. | |
obviously did not line up to be counted. That can justify the | :43:48. | :43:54. | |
claims. We have to remember, it is powerful people, politicians, news | :43:55. | :44:01. | |
agendas and businesses who also need to be scrutinised. It is not just | :44:02. | :44:07. | |
fake news, those questions matter elsewhere. In some regards, yes it | :44:08. | :44:16. | |
could be satire which you are not meant to believe anyway at some of | :44:17. | :44:21. | |
it can influence decisions for your everyday life and that is why the | :44:22. | :44:26. | |
truth is essential. Exactly an eye think that is why an enquiry has | :44:27. | :44:31. | |
been set up here to see if they can be affected. They are looking at | :44:32. | :44:39. | |
social media websites. The tools that can help us. You could always | :44:40. | :44:45. | |
flagged up what is fake. A bit like you have on Twitter and Instagram, | :44:46. | :44:51. | |
potentially you could see on a story at Teac... Whether or not this | :44:52. | :44:56. | |
happens is another question. -- tick. But we have to be careful | :44:57. | :45:04. | |
about that, we have to recognise we have to make up our own mind. Most | :45:05. | :45:09. | |
of the really important things, are we giving enough money to whatever, | :45:10. | :45:13. | |
they are judgements that we need to make. On the Twitter handle, we have | :45:14. | :45:23. | |
a guide that you can go through and it tells you how to identify fake | :45:24. | :45:25. | |
news. As Ricky was saying, there is the | :45:26. | :45:36. | |
fake news explainer on the Newsround website. The truth is out there, | :45:37. | :45:40. | |
Newsround will help you find it! Not just kids either! We could all do | :45:41. | :45:42. | |
with it now and again! million to buy food, | :45:43. | :45:44. | |

for an escaped prisoner. was on a hospital visit in | :45:54. | :45:55. | |
Liverpool. Officers say he's dangerous | :45:56. | :45:58. | |
and the public should not Now, no need for a tech on our | :45:59. | :46:18. | |
weather because Carol is 100% reliable and she's out and about. | :46:19. | :46:24. | |
Where are you? -- tick. I'm at Kensington Palace this morning and | :46:25. | :46:28. | |
look at the lovely gardens behind. Quite a great start, rather drizzly | :46:29. | :46:32. | |
but the reason I'm here is because inside Kensington Palace we have | :46:33. | :46:40. | |
lots of the Princess of Wales' dresses, from when she was Lady | :46:41. | :46:44. | |
Diana Spencer right up until she died. There's an exhibition taking | :46:45. | :46:49. | |
place starting here on Friday and there are some stunning dresses in | :46:50. | :46:53. | |
their, much more stunning than the weather today and tomorrow! | :46:54. | :46:56. | |
Have a blustery day ahead, for some it is very windy with gales and we | :46:57. | :47:03. | |
also have some rain and tomorrow we have Storm Doris. This morning at | :47:04. | :47:07. | |
9am in Scotland, we'll still have gales in the Northern Isles, the far | :47:08. | :47:13. | |
north of mainland Scotland, round to Aberdeenshire, gusting 65 and 70 mph | :47:14. | :47:16. | |
and that could lead to travel disruption. For the rest of Scotland | :47:17. | :47:21. | |
and into northern England, fairly dry, a few showers around but some | :47:22. | :47:25. | |
brightness but as we come south to the Midlands, East Anglia and | :47:26. | :47:28. | |
southern counties generally, there is a lot of cloud around and that's | :47:29. | :47:33. | |
producing patchy rain. Into the south-west, it is cloudy here too, | :47:34. | :47:38. | |
murky with some hill fog and as we head into Wales, a wet day ahead | :47:39. | :47:42. | |
whichever way you look at it. Into Northern Ireland, a bright start for | :47:43. | :47:47. | |
you but later we could see some rain and some of that could be heavy. | :47:48. | :47:51. | |
Through the course of the day, very slowly the wind across the far north | :47:52. | :47:57. | |
of Scotland starts to ease as an area of low pressure eases away. In | :47:58. | :48:02. | |
Wales it flips and north Jo moves north and as it does the rain will | :48:03. | :48:07. | |
turn heavier and wherever you are it will be a blustery day. In between | :48:08. | :48:11. | |
we will see some brightness in the opening and an parts of Scotland and | :48:12. | :48:14. | |
overnight and. Through the evening and overnight, the rain turns | :48:15. | :48:20. | |
heavier as it continues across Wales to northern England. Then it joins | :48:21. | :48:24. | |
forces with Storm Doris coming across Northern Ireland, so some | :48:25. | :48:29. | |
heavy rain. As it pushes to the far north of England, southern uplands | :48:30. | :48:32. | |
and Central Lowlands, it will turn readily to smoke and the wind by the | :48:33. | :48:36. | |
end of the night will be strengthening. The Met Office has an | :48:37. | :48:39. | |
amber weather warnings out so that means be prepared for the wind. -- | :48:40. | :48:47. | |
to snow. Tomorrow, Wales, north England, East Anglia, gusts of 70 | :48:48. | :48:54. | |
mph and that includes inland. South of that, 60 mph. As well as that, we | :48:55. | :48:59. | |
have heavy rain moving quickly across Northern Ireland, northern | :49:00. | :49:02. | |
England, into the North Sea but we also have the snow. Heavy snowfall | :49:03. | :49:07. | |
in the southern uplands first thing, also snow in the Central Lowlands | :49:08. | :49:12. | |
even at lower levels and then the whole system pushes to the North Sea | :49:13. | :49:16. | |
leaving brighter skies and the winds coming down. On Friday the winds | :49:17. | :49:20. | |
will be lighter, a dry and relatively bright start to the day | :49:21. | :49:24. | |
but then more rain coming in from the Atlantic. An unsettled 24 hours | :49:25. | :49:30. | |
at least ahead as Storm Doris crosses our shores. | :49:31. | :49:32. | |
Job we've got you to explain it all! Thank you very much indeed! -- good | :49:33. | :49:40. | |
job. We were hoping she would be inside Kensington Palace this | :49:41. | :49:43. | |
morning, later we have a report where we have been inside in a | :49:44. | :49:46. | |
couple of minutes. You will see those dresses, which are on display | :49:47. | :49:51. | |
for quite some time. Some of the most iconic dresses that Diana | :49:52. | :49:55. | |
Princess of Wales ever wore. I know! I may be more interested! Don't | :49:56. | :50:01. | |
assume that I'm not interested axe Mac you've already planned your | :50:02. | :50:02. | |
visit. -- I'm not interested! Ben's had a busy morning | :50:03. | :50:07. | |
with lots of banking results Before you get to the glitzy dresses | :50:08. | :50:17. | |
you're going to have to listen to a little bit about banking! Good | :50:18. | :50:18. | |
morning. Banking giant Lloyds has been | :50:19. | :50:18. | |
updating us this morning, it also owns Halifax | :50:19. | :50:21. | |
and the Bank of Scotland. Profits came in at ?4.2 | :50:22. | :50:23. | |
billion, that's up 158% The bank was bailed out | :50:24. | :50:24. | |
at the height of the financial crisis but the government has slowly | :50:25. | :50:31. | |
been selling off its remaining shares, so as taxpayers | :50:32. | :50:34. | |
we now own less than 5%. Laith Khalaf is from | :50:35. | :50:40. | |
Hargreaves Lansdown. Good morning, Laith Stoppila Sunzu | :50:41. | :50:49. | |
about Lloyds, there's a lot of banking stuff to get through -- good | :50:50. | :50:56. | |
morning, Laith. It is a good figure by anyone's standards, why the | :50:57. | :51:00. | |
turnaround? Of the big thing that has moved the dial is PPI, PPI costs | :51:01. | :51:06. | |
have fallen out of the equation. -- the big thing. The financial | :51:07. | :51:10. | |
director has said there aren't going to be any more claims from 2019 | :51:11. | :51:14. | |
onwards, allowing the bank to draw a line under it. Looking at the costs, | :51:15. | :51:19. | |
last year the bank took a ?4 billion hit in terms of PPI claims, this | :51:20. | :51:23. | |
year it's taken ?1 billion so that has moved things quite a lot. The | :51:24. | :51:28. | |
bank has cut a lot of costs out of its bottom line, part of that is | :51:29. | :51:32. | |
down to management, some of that is down to the way that we're banking | :51:33. | :51:40. | |
now, a lot of us are doing more online banking so that reduces the | :51:41. | :51:44. | |
need for a presence on the high street. That's what a lot of people | :51:45. | :51:47. | |
are getting frustrated with this morning, certainly online, we talk | :51:48. | :51:50. | |
about branches like that but they're disappearing because it is trying to | :51:51. | :51:53. | |
save ?1.5 billion. All banks are doing it, it's not unique to Lloyds, | :51:54. | :51:57. | |
but that's the difficulty for the big banks, the balance between a | :51:58. | :52:00. | |
high street presence and the online stuff it wants to do that is | :52:01. | :52:04. | |
cheaper. Absolutely, that isn't exclusive to Lloyds, it's happening | :52:05. | :52:08. | |
across the industry and across a lot of industries where we're changing | :52:09. | :52:17. | |
the way we behave, not just banking but shopping as well and that's | :52:18. | :52:20. | |
having an effect on all businesses across the UK. I mentioned in the | :52:21. | :52:25. | |
introduction that we own quite a lot of Lloyds, we bailed it out at the | :52:26. | :52:28. | |
height of the financial crisis, we now own less than 5%, the government | :52:29. | :52:32. | |
wants to sell off that remaining stake, that's quite significant when | :52:33. | :52:35. | |
it comes? Looking at Lloyds, it's a bank that is much healthier and | :52:36. | :52:39. | |
safer than it was, it is turning out profits and paying a dividend to | :52:40. | :52:41. | |
shareholders and that government stake is importantly down to 5% so | :52:42. | :52:45. | |
it's getting back to normal and it looks like the taxpayer will at | :52:46. | :52:49. | |
least break even on the deal and could even turn a profit. I need to | :52:50. | :52:56. | |
ask you about Royal Bank of Scotland, a big loss expected on | :52:57. | :52:59. | |
Friday, why are Lloyds doing well with this huge profit and Royal Bank | :53:00. | :53:02. | |
of Scotland reporting a massive loss, why the difference? Royal Bank | :53:03. | :53:05. | |
of Scotland, we are expecting a ninth year of consecutive losses, so | :53:06. | :53:09. | |
it's had a terrible time since the crisis. Part of that is Royal Bank | :53:10. | :53:13. | |
of Scotland had many problems to start with and management have had | :53:14. | :53:16. | |
to deal with those, and it's facing litigation in the US, which is a | :53:17. | :53:19. | |
huge multibillion pound problem for the bank so we're expecting more | :53:20. | :53:23. | |
losses on Friday. Significant, we will be watching them closely. Good | :53:24. | :53:34. | |
to see you, Laith. Friday, figures from Royal Bank of Scotland expected | :53:35. | :53:38. | |
to report a loss of ?6 billion but today Lloyds have just reported a | :53:39. | :53:41. | |
profit of just over ?4 billion. A big difference. More from me after | :53:42. | :53:43. | |
8am! We've seen Carol out this | :53:44. | :53:43. | |
morning at the exhibition Diana: Her Fashion Story | :53:44. | :53:46. | |
tracks her changing style Breakfast's Allison Freeman has been | :53:47. | :53:49. | |
to Kensington Palace to see The eyes of the world followed her | :53:50. | :53:52. | |
and her fashion choices. Princess Diana's style | :53:53. | :54:01. | |
both reflected the time And now fans of Diana can see some | :54:02. | :54:04. | |
of her most well-known outfits at an exhibition at her former | :54:05. | :54:08. | |
home, Kensington Palace. It's in this room that we first meet | :54:09. | :54:13. | |
Lady Diana Spencer when she's about to step onto that | :54:14. | :54:17. | |
international stage. So this room really | :54:18. | :54:21. | |
reflects her early love She really enjoyed that sort | :54:22. | :54:24. | |
of New Romantic style. The exhibition charts how her tastes | :54:25. | :54:30. | |
developed and style matured, featuring iconic dresses by 11 | :54:31. | :54:34. | |
different designers. This point in the exhibition really | :54:35. | :54:38. | |
marks the moment where Diana became more confident and playful | :54:39. | :54:41. | |
in her fashion choices. Famously in 1987 she made the daring | :54:42. | :54:45. | |
choice to wear one red glove and one black glove with this dress | :54:46. | :54:49. | |
on an official visit to Spain. Victor Edelstein designed one | :54:50. | :54:53. | |
of the Princess's most She wore it for that envy-making | :54:54. | :54:56. | |
moment when John Travolta whisked her around the dancefloor | :54:57. | :55:02. | |
at the White House. When she ordered it I didn't know | :55:03. | :55:05. | |
when she was going to wear it, She just ordered it | :55:06. | :55:10. | |
because she liked it. And then one saw that she wore it | :55:11. | :55:15. | |
to go to the White House. I was talking to the curator | :55:16. | :55:19. | |
at Hampton Court and she felt it marked her transition | :55:20. | :55:22. | |
from being rather more girlish to suddenly looking a sophisticated | :55:23. | :55:24. | |
woman, perhaps that's true, Perhaps that's also what made it | :55:25. | :55:27. | |
so noticeable, and dancing As her marriage came to an end, | :55:28. | :55:31. | |
Diana's style became This red dress by Catherine Walker | :55:32. | :55:35. | |
among some of the most recognisable Her whole life was changing, | :55:36. | :55:44. | |
she was very involved in charity work and I think she wanted | :55:45. | :55:48. | |
to communicate the fact that she wasn't just a clothes | :55:49. | :55:52. | |
horse, a fashion clothes horse, shoe actually was a working mother, | :55:53. | :55:55. | |
she had a job to do and she was deeply committed | :55:56. | :55:59. | |
to many of the charities Diana wore the final dress | :56:00. | :56:01. | |
in the exhibition to the preview The proceeds went | :56:02. | :56:08. | |
to an AIDS charity. She sold 79 of her most famous gowns | :56:09. | :56:13. | |
and the press widely reported that this was her closing a chapter | :56:14. | :56:17. | |
on her old life and style Diana's fashion story opens | :56:18. | :56:20. | |
to the public on Friday with those memorable dresses remaining display | :56:21. | :56:28. | |
for the next two years. You can see quite clearly how her | :56:29. | :56:46. | |
style completely changed. Plenty of memories there! U of! She's signed | :56:47. | :56:49. | |

Good morning from Kensington Palace. The weather is grey and drizzly. | :02:16. | :02:29. | |
Across the UK we're looking at a blustery day with rain, but later | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
tonight and through tomorrow, Storm Doris will be upon our shores | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
bringing heavy rain, snow and strong winds, but I'll have more details in | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
15 minutes. We'll talk to you then. Thank you. | :02:41. | :02:46. | |
We start with the news that an extra ?200 million in emergency | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
humanitarian aid has been promised by the Government to tackle a famine | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
The International Development Secretary, Priti Patel, | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
said the additional funds would provide food, water | :02:58. | :02:58. | |
and emergency health care for more than two million people. | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
Here's our diplomatic correspondent, James Landale. | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
In parts of war-torn South Sudan, people are now dying | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
of starvation and famine has been officially declared. | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
The UN and charities say that Somalia, Yemen and north-east | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
Nigeria are facing similar humanitarian crisis with millions | :03:18. | :03:19. | |
of people having no reliable access to food. | :03:20. | :03:21. | |
So today the International Development Secretary, Priti Patel, | :03:22. | :03:30. | |
is promising a new package of emergency aid for | :03:31. | :03:31. | |
She said there will be an extra ?200 million made | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
available this year, this would include emergency food | :03:36. | :03:37. | |
and water for a million people in Somalia and food assistance | :03:38. | :03:39. | |
There will be also emergency health care and nutritional support | :03:40. | :03:47. | |
for starving children in both countries. | :03:48. | :03:56. | |
Britain's leadership will basically mean we will be saving lives, | :03:57. | :03:58. | |
bringing vital assistance to people in desperate need but also putting | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
the call out to the international community to get them to step up, | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
to galvanise their support so that we can have a strong | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
international response to what quite frankly could be a devastating | :04:08. | :04:08. | |
Ms Patel says that the international response so far had been inadequate | :04:09. | :04:15. | |
and the world sleepwalking towards catastrophe and she called | :04:16. | :04:17. | |
for a faster, more effective humanitarian system. | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
The problem is that these crisis have been caused as much | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
by conflict as by drought, and no amount of aid will end | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
the violence that has brought so much suffering | :04:28. | :04:29. | |
And in a few minutes we'll speak to Mike Penrose the executive | :04:30. | :04:40. | |
director of Unicef UK about the situation in Sudan. | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
A convicted murderer is on the run this morning after armed | :04:46. | :04:48. | |
men helped him escape during a hospital visit. | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
Shaun Walmsley is one of four men serving life sentences | :04:52. | :04:53. | |
Our reporter Holly Hamilton is outside Aintree University Hospital | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
Good morning, Sally. Well, from what we understand Shaun Walmsley was | :04:59. | :05:12. | |
brought here yesterday afternoon for a medical appointment. He was | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
escorted by two prison guards, but it seems to be that when they tried | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
to return to the jail, go back to their car, they were ambushed by two | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
men both who were wearing masks or their faces were covered. One was | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
armed with a knife. The other was armed with a gun. They threatened | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
the prison guards and forced them to allow Shaun Walmsley to escape. Now, | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
they made off in a gold coloured Volvo and the prison officers were | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
able to raise the alarm. Neither were injured. Merseyside Police have | :05:42. | :05:47. | |
launched a search now. They're combing through CCTV footage and | :05:48. | :05:50. | |
they're working with the Ministry of Justice and with other police forces | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
across the UK in the hope of finding Shaun Walmsley. Now, he is described | :05:55. | :06:00. | |
as dangerous. He was convicted in 2015 for murder where he is serving | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
a life sentence for that. He is described as dangerous so members of | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
the public are advised not to approach him or the two men who are | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
believed to be still with him as they could be carrying weapons and | :06:14. | :06:20. | |
if you see him or have information, contact 999. | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
It's being reported that a British fighter believed to have carried out | :06:26. | :06:27. | |
a suicide bombing for so-called Islamic State in Iraq, | :06:28. | :06:29. | |
had previously received compensation from the UK Government | :06:30. | :06:31. | |
after being detained in Guantanamo Bay. | :06:32. | :06:33. | |
Jamal al Harith is said to have detonated a vehicle filled | :06:34. | :06:35. | |

The face of a suicide bomber, a British man used by so-called | :06:40. | :06:53. | |
Lots of results from the City. You've been on to the bank. Not your | :06:54. | :07:00. | |
bank. Lloyds told us how much money it made last year and it is a record | :07:01. | :07:05. | |
amount. It is up 158% coming in at over ?4 billion and that is up | :07:06. | :07:08. | |
significantly from what came in the year before. It made about ?1.5 | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
billion then. A large part of this is down to the fact it is reducing | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
how much it pays in PPI, payment protection insurance, you know many | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
of the big banks have been caught up in this. They have been paying out | :07:21. | :07:23. | |
millions and millions of pounds to put this right. Lloyds and the | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
Government set a deadline now so they're happy that they can draw a | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
line under the worst of that affair and start moving forwards. Profits | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
up 158%. Now we watch Lloyds closely because it was bailed out at the | :07:37. | :07:39. | |
height of the financial crisis in 2008, the Government took a big | :07:40. | :07:42. | |
stake to stop it going under and they've slowly been selling off that | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
stake. They own less than 5%, so we as taxpayers own less than 5% of the | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
bank and they're hopeful that they can sell it off back to the private | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
sector and there it can exist as a bank probably should. But it is | :07:56. | :08:00. | |
worth contrasting into the fortunes of RBS, RBS reports its figures on | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
Friday. Expected to be very different? Very, very different. | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
Today we're talking about a profit of ?4.2 billion for Lloyds, RBS is | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
expected to report a loss of ?6 billion. So a huge difference. They | :08:15. | :08:17. | |
have been plagued by all sorts of problems, but Lloyds being much, | :08:18. | :08:22. | |
much better than RBS. So we'll get the details for RBS on Friday. Today | :08:23. | :08:28. | |
for Lloyds, good news for the bank and for the shareholders, a 158% | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
rise in profits, ?4 billion. The cost of essential repairs | :08:33. | :08:39. | |
to school buildings in England has already reached almost ?7 billion, | :08:40. | :08:41. | |
according to the In a report published today, | :08:42. | :08:43. | |
it warns that figure But ministers have also spent | :08:44. | :08:46. | |
money on creating places in new free schools, | :08:47. | :08:49. | |
some of which are under-subscribed. England's schools | :08:50. | :08:52. | |
are in high demand. Places for 400,000 more pupils | :08:53. | :09:01. | |
are needed by 2021, but safe, high-quality buildings | :09:02. | :09:04. | |
are hard to come by. Many schools are already | :09:05. | :09:06. | |
in a sorry state. Most were built before | :09:07. | :09:08. | |
the mid-1970s, meaning worn out walls and windows or faulty | :09:09. | :09:16. | |
electrics are a common problem. It will cost an estimated | :09:17. | :09:18. | |
?6.7 billion to fix major The National Audit Office says | :09:19. | :09:20. | |
the bill could grow sharply. Well, I think the challenge | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
for the department is that if you don't address deterioration | :09:27. | :09:28. | |
promptly, those buildings continue to deteriorate and then either | :09:29. | :09:30. | |
they can no longer be used as schools or at least it costs | :09:31. | :09:35. | |
more to refurbish them, because the deterioration gets | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
worse. As well as repairs to existing | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
schools, the Government is planning to open 500 new free schools over | :09:44. | :09:46. | |
the next five years. But auditors said that a lack | :09:47. | :09:50. | |
of suitable land meant large sums were being paid to secure sites | :09:51. | :09:53. | |
and they raised concerns that in some cases the programme had | :09:54. | :09:56. | |
created places where The Department for Education | :09:57. | :09:58. | |
insisted free schools were vital to make places available | :09:59. | :10:01. | |
and that it was making a huge investment in the school estate | :10:02. | :10:03. | |
to rebuild and refurbish buildings. The Bill giving the Prime Minister | :10:04. | :10:12. | |
permission to trigger the start of the Brexit process has been given | :10:13. | :10:18. | |
an unopposed second reading It will now be discussed | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
in committee where some peers are expected to attempt to amend | :10:22. | :10:25. | |
the proposed legislation. By 2030 men and women are expected | :10:26. | :10:39. | |
to live well into their 80s. Scientists looked at the average | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
life expectancy in 35 industrialised nations and discovered South Koreans | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
are expected to live the longest, reaching an average age of 90 years | :10:48. | :10:49. | |
old! ?200 million in emergency | :10:50. | :10:58. | |
humanitarian aid has been promised by the Government to tackle a famine | :10:59. | :11:00. | |
in South Sudan and Somalia. It will be used to provide food, | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
water and emergency health care. One million people are classified | :11:05. | :11:07. | |
as being on the brink of famine which means people have already | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
started dying of hunger. The UN says nearly five million | :11:11. | :11:13. | |
people are in need of food urgently. That's 40% of South | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
Sudan's population. But there are also warnings | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
of impending famine in North East Nigeria, | :11:22. | :11:24. | |
Yemen and Somalia which is also receiving ?100 million | :11:25. | :11:26. | |
from the British Government. The executive director of Unicef UK, | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
Mike Penrose, joins us now Mike, thank you very much for your | :11:33. | :11:38. | |
time this morning. What sort of challenges, give us an idea, what | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
sort of challenges are people facing on the ground at the moment in south | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
Sudan? It's horrendous especially up in the northern states at the | :11:47. | :11:49. | |
moment. We're getting reports back of people eating water lilies. | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
Looking for food wherever they can find it and there is not enough food | :11:55. | :11:58. | |
to feed people and especially children. Was this an expected | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
famine? Was this something that could have been predicted? Is it a | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
situation which has occurred? Well, in all of these countries and south | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
Sudan included we have been saying for a while that it is a critical | :12:13. | :12:15. | |
situation. We have been warning for a long time that children especially | :12:16. | :12:20. | |
and we have been saying that children and the nutritional status | :12:21. | :12:24. | |
of children has been deteriorating for a while, so the flags have been | :12:25. | :12:27. | |
waved, but unfortunately it has got very, very bad indeed in the last | :12:28. | :12:30. | |
few months. What difference would this money actually make? Where | :12:31. | :12:33. | |
would it be spent and what sort of things would it be doing? Well, to | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
tackle famine you need to not only get food in, but you need to put in | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
therapeutic feeding, specialist feeding for children that are | :12:43. | :12:47. | |
already at risk of death and Unicef is a specialist in this, as well as | :12:48. | :12:50. | |
water and sanitation and the ability to have clean water will affect as | :12:51. | :12:55. | |
much as food the nutritional status of children. So we'll need to get | :12:56. | :13:00. | |
all of these things up into some incredibly difficult conflict | :13:01. | :13:04. | |
affected areas. We mentioned Somalia on the brink of famine. It is not | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
just south Sudan, northern Nigeria and Yemen as well, it is very much | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
an issue that's going to be of concern for quite sometime in a | :13:14. | :13:16. | |
number of countries? Absolutely. This is almost unprecedented to see | :13:17. | :13:20. | |
famine in this number of countries at the same time. We have 500,000 | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
children or nearly 500,000 children in northern Nigeria and Yemen at the | :13:26. | :13:30. | |
moment that Unicef is monitoring, that are suffering from severe or | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
acute malnutrition and we're seeing up to 270,000 cases in both Somalia | :13:36. | :13:41. | |
and 270,000 in south Sudan at the moment of children that Unicef are | :13:42. | :13:45. | |
saying is at imminent risk of death because of under nutrition. We're | :13:46. | :13:48. | |
talking about the UK response. What's the rest of the international | :13:49. | :13:50. | |
community been doing and saying about this? Well, across the world, | :13:51. | :13:55. | |
I think, it has been recognitioned at the moment. The UK is certainly | :13:56. | :13:58. | |
to be praised. As we heard from the Secretary of State last night, it | :13:59. | :14:02. | |
showed the UK's humanitarian leadership when situations become as | :14:03. | :14:08. | |
critical as this. The international community we are hearing the same | :14:09. | :14:11. | |
noises, but we are asking the rest of them to follow the UK's lead, | :14:12. | :14:15. | |
step up and give us what's critically needed to save children's | :14:16. | :14:19. | |
lives. Is it just about money? What else can be done? Money makes a | :14:20. | :14:23. | |
difference because it gives you that ability to change things, but what | :14:24. | :14:26. | |
other things should we be thinking about? Money in our humanitarian | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
interventions and money will change things on the ground in the short to | :14:32. | :14:36. | |
medium term. We can save lives and stop children from dying, but most | :14:37. | :14:41. | |
of the famines are caused, there are climatic issues related to climate | :14:42. | :14:44. | |
change, but the majority of the cause of these famines and this | :14:45. | :14:48. | |
hunger is conflict. So we also need the international community to step | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
up, to come together and to try and find durable solutions to conflicts | :14:53. | :14:55. | |
that are killing thousands of children every day. Great to talk to | :14:56. | :14:58. | |
you this morning, thank you very much, Mike. Hopefully the money will | :14:59. | :15:01. | |
make a difference. The Government is giving money to | :15:02. | :15:13. | |
treat famine in south sued dan. Police in Merseyside are searching | :15:14. | :15:31. | |
for an escaped prisoner. Police say he is dangerous in the public should | :15:32. | :15:33. | |
not approach. She is out this morning at | :15:34. | :15:44. | |
Kensington Palace. Good morning, Carol. Good morning. Lovely at | :15:45. | :15:52. | |
Kensington Palace. If only it was sunny. Look at the view we have, | :15:53. | :15:58. | |
quite blustery and damp. The reason we are here is not to look at the | :15:59. | :16:04. | |
gardens, but earlier you would have seen this looking inside Kensington | :16:05. | :16:07. | |
Palace. On Friday in exhibition opens the of Wales and her fabulous | :16:08. | :16:14. | |
dresses. They are fabulous. To date what we are looking at is some | :16:15. | :16:19. | |
blustery wind, and also rain at times. The heaviest rain will be in | :16:20. | :16:27. | |
Wales. Today, nine o'clock, Scotland, very strong winds across | :16:28. | :16:32. | |
the eastern quarter. Jails, 60, 70 miles an hour. Travel disruption. -- | :16:33. | :16:38. | |
Gailes. Equally there will be some showers. The South will have some | :16:39. | :16:51. | |
showers, and also cloudy in the south-east and south-west. The | :16:52. | :16:54. | |
weather from producing patchy rain and some murkiness in the | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
south-west. Wales will have heavy rain through the day. On and off. | :16:59. | :17:03. | |
Northern Ireland, bright start, later on in the day there will be | :17:04. | :17:06. | |
some rain, some of that will be heavy. Through the course of today | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
we hang on while yet to the strong winds across the Northern isles and | :17:13. | :17:16. | |
Scotland, he leaned to Aberdeenshire. Into the afternoon. | :17:17. | :17:21. | |
Slowly the wind will come down. Across the south of the country, | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
looking at the weather front, heading off and rejuvenating. It | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
will return that bit heavier. Through the evening and overnight, | :17:32. | :17:36. | |
rain moving northwards, through the Midlands, East Anglia, Wales, then | :17:37. | :17:44. | |
joining forces with the one coming across Northern Ireland producing | :17:45. | :17:48. | |
heavy rain. As it engages with the cold air, with the Southern uplands | :17:49. | :17:54. | |
and Central Scotland, it will fall readily as snow. Also going to be | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
very windy. The Met office has an amber weather warning, strong across | :17:59. | :18:03. | |
North Wales, the North Midlands, North East Anglia and northern | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
England. Gusts of 70, 80 quite possible. In the south, 50, 60, even | :18:09. | :18:15. | |
inland. As well as the wind, heavy rain, and also the snow. Likely to | :18:16. | :18:21. | |
lead to some travel disruption. They will move quite quickly. By the end | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
of the afternoon, should have cleared, leaving us with some | :18:26. | :18:30. | |
sunshine, some showers, and the winds interviewing to lighten. | :18:31. | :18:35. | |
Friday, quieter day, dry to start with, lighter winds, more rain | :18:36. | :18:41. | |
coming from the West. All happening with the weather in the next 24, 36 | :18:42. | :18:43. | |
hours. Thank you very much indeed. We | :18:44. | :18:54. | |
nearly lost her. A few technical issues. Bear with us. Could you hear | :18:55. | :18:59. | |
her at home? I think you get this Well, a quarter of us are relying | :19:00. | :19:03. | |
on alcohol in order to drift off to the land of nod - | :19:04. | :19:07. | |
that's according to a national It also reveals a third of us | :19:08. | :19:10. | |
get as little as five Stress, our partners | :19:11. | :19:18. | |
and noise are to blame. So what is the secret | :19:19. | :19:22. | |
to a good night's rest? Let's speak now to sleep | :19:23. | :19:25. | |
coach, Nick Littlehales good morning. Can you solve this for | :19:26. | :19:44. | |
us? I was travelling in London, I have been on a train, in a hotel. | :19:45. | :19:50. | |
That is why it is a difficult subject. Real life getting in the | :19:51. | :19:59. | |
way? Particularly nowadays, with 24-7 lives, pressures, anxiety, | :20:00. | :20:05. | |
stress. We resolve things like alcohol, sleeping tablets, quick | :20:06. | :20:10. | |
solutions trying to help with sleep. A good time to refine your approach. | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
How bad an idea is it to use alcohol? Quite a few people are | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
doing that according to the survey. Is that a nonstarter? The reason | :20:21. | :20:26. | |
people drink before bed, it makes them feel drowsy. It gives the | :20:27. | :20:31. | |
appearance it is working, but the problem is the quality of sleep is | :20:32. | :20:38. | |
really poor. When you wake up you are less refreshed, exacerbating the | :20:39. | :20:42. | |
problems causing you do not sleep well. You are in a vicious circle. | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
Alcohol is not great to get a good night's sleep. A less people would | :20:48. | :20:55. | |
say a glass of red wine, they would think... Are you speaking from | :20:56. | :21:04. | |
experience? What we recommend, as doctors. No more than 14 units over | :21:05. | :21:10. | |
the course of a week. If you want to have a 175 millilitres glass, only | :21:11. | :21:17. | |
six classes through the week. What I would say, rather than having that | :21:18. | :21:20. | |
every night, give yourself days without alcohol. A lot of people | :21:21. | :21:29. | |
getting in contact. The question we asked, do you need a drink? One | :21:30. | :21:36. | |
reviewer saying I listen to documentaries on the iPlayer. Never | :21:37. | :21:44. | |
touch alcohol, I drink coffee, I still fall asleep straightaway. A | :21:45. | :21:49. | |
good eight hours sleep. A lot of these surveys of one. What are the | :21:50. | :21:55. | |
good tips on getting a good night's sleep. What people should | :21:56. | :22:02. | |
understand, the quality of sleep you get, is everything you do from the | :22:03. | :22:06. | |
point of waking. Every single minute of your day and hour, little | :22:07. | :22:12. | |
recovery breaks, eat well, hydrate, exercise as much as you can. Give | :22:13. | :22:17. | |
the brain the opportunity to download information, don't take | :22:18. | :22:20. | |
this into sleep. A lot of people will think they can do something at | :22:21. | :22:24. | |
the last minute to change the way they sleep, that normally does not | :22:25. | :22:28. | |
work. A glass of wine to endure day, a cold beer to put yourself in a | :22:29. | :22:33. | |
nice place, but when you move onto other units, it gets worse. When you | :22:34. | :22:38. | |
get to the final 90 minutes before sleep, think about meditation, | :22:39. | :22:44. | |
mindfulness, technical breaks. Laptops, iPads, the blue light | :22:45. | :22:49. | |
keeping you in an awake state. Even decluttering around the home. | :22:50. | :22:54. | |
Putting things in the right place, ignoring them, can help. Sleep is | :22:55. | :22:59. | |
such a tricky thing. If you struggle to sleep, the more you worry about | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
it, think about it. If you find something that helps you get to | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
sleep, whatever the habit is, really difficult to break out of it. A lot | :23:09. | :23:14. | |
of people find it is a drink. We just need to say again, they will | :23:15. | :23:20. | |
not get as good quality of sleep. They may fall asleep, but it will be | :23:21. | :23:26. | |
poor quality sleep. Try some of the good advice, exercise, do something | :23:27. | :23:28. | |
earlier on in the evening that will tire you out. Find something | :23:29. | :23:33. | |
healthier to do before you go to bed to make you feel sleepy. It is not | :23:34. | :23:37. | |
just the effects of that night, it goes on many hours through your day. | :23:38. | :23:45. | |
Over much longer. I use the sugar from the alcohol to stop me from | :23:46. | :23:48. | |
going to bed early, according to a viewer. There you go. Keep those | :23:49. | :23:55. | |
comments coming in. We will read some later on. Glass of wine before | :23:56. | :24:02. | |
an early shift? Less clear that up now. Nearly a quarter of high street | :24:03. | :24:09. | |
shops do not have wheelchair access, only one in ten offer services for | :24:10. | :24:18. | |
hearing aid users, according to a survey. Our correspondent Nicky Fox | :24:19. | :24:23. | |
looks at how the fashion industry targets disabled consumers, and have | :24:24. | :24:28. | |
a collective spending power of ?249 billion. Otherwise known as the | :24:29. | :24:34. | |
purple brown. The changing face of the British high street has not | :24:35. | :24:37. | |
changed fast enough for many disabled people. This lack of | :24:38. | :24:43. | |
options for disability as third one woman to do something about it. This | :24:44. | :24:51. | |
shop is swapping regular managing for one for a sitting mannequin. | :24:52. | :24:56. | |
This was designed back in 2010. During the 20 12th Paralympics, | :24:57. | :25:00. | |
Sophie got the product into a big high street store. As soon as the | :25:01. | :25:06. | |
game is finished, it was taken out, never used again. Young men and | :25:07. | :25:09. | |
women going out shopping do not feel welcome. Do not feel like they are | :25:10. | :25:13. | |
part of the conversation when it comes to style and fashion. I wanted | :25:14. | :25:18. | |
this chair to be a symbol of inclusion from the shops. I can come | :25:19. | :25:24. | |
past the shop, I note thinks about how to style somebody in a | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
wheelchair. They are accessible, they have accessible changing rooms. | :25:29. | :25:33. | |
There is a mannequin sat down, a design that is a wheelchair. Did you | :25:34. | :25:38. | |
notice? I had not noticed. What did you make of it? Absolutely great, | :25:39. | :25:46. | |
why not. Fashion for everybody. It is good they are getting mannequins | :25:47. | :25:50. | |
and wheelchair positions, brilliant. We are becoming more socially aware. | :25:51. | :25:55. | |
Absolutely fine. Not just about seeing visibility on the high | :25:56. | :26:00. | |
street. About accessibility as well. Making sure disabled people can get | :26:01. | :26:05. | |
into shops. So they can spend their hard earned cash. Of the nearly 1300 | :26:06. | :26:15. | |
fashion retailers, the organisation Disabled Go visited, 22% had no step | :26:16. | :26:22. | |
free access. 90% were unable to offer hearing loops. 62% did not | :26:23. | :26:29. | |
give staff training on how to best support disabled customers. From | :26:30. | :26:35. | |
high street to high-end fashion. Designers use two disabled models to | :26:36. | :26:44. | |
launch their latest collection. We have not adapted the collection, we | :26:45. | :26:47. | |
approach the styling as they would any other collection. The Minister | :26:48. | :26:52. | |
for disabled people want businesses to be open to everyone. The British | :26:53. | :26:57. | |
Retail Consortium pawned out shop owners can be restricted from making | :26:58. | :27:02. | |
adjustments due to the age and design of the building. The purple | :27:03. | :27:06. | |
pound exists, we are there, we want to spend money. It is time to bring | :27:07. | :27:20. | |
us in. We are with it. I am checking what is in your mug. It is not wine, | :27:21. | :27:26. | |
but totally against the advice of Nick, it is coffee. You do not want | :27:27. | :27:31. | |
it. I do not drink it. Let's get news, travel and weather. | :27:32. | :30:49. | |
But for now it's time to hand you back to Sally and Dan and I'll | :30:50. | :31:02. | |
Hello, this is Breakfast with Dan Walker and Sally Nugent. | :31:03. | :31:10. | |
It's just gone 8:30am. Let's bring you up to date. | :31:11. | :31:13. | |
An extra ?200 million in emergency humanitarian aid | :31:14. | :31:15. | |
to tackle a famine in South Sudan and Somalia has been promised | :31:16. | :31:18. | |
In parts of war-torn South Sudan, people are dying | :31:19. | :31:21. | |
of starvation and famine has been officially declared. | :31:22. | :31:23. | |
The International Development Secretary, Priti Patel, | :31:24. | :31:25. | |
said the funding would provide food, water and emergency health care | :31:26. | :31:27. | |
A convicted murderer is on the run after armed men helped him escape | :31:28. | :31:37. | |
Shaun Walmsley is one of four men serving life sentences | :31:38. | :31:40. | |
for a fatal stabbing in Liverpool in 2014. | :31:41. | :31:44. | |
He fled from outside Aintree University Hospital | :31:45. | :31:45. | |
as he was getting into a car with prison officers. | :31:46. | :31:48. | |
Merseyside Police said two men, believed to be armed | :31:49. | :31:50. | |
with a gun and a knife, assisted in the escape. | :31:51. | :31:59. | |
It's being reported that a British fighter believed to have carried out | :32:00. | :32:02. | |
a suicide bombing for so-called Islamic State in Iraq, | :32:03. | :32:04. | |
had previously received compensation from the UK Government | :32:05. | :32:06. | |
after being detained in Guantanamo Bay. | :32:07. | :32:09. | |
Jamal al Harith is said to have detonated a vehicle filled | :32:10. | :32:12. | |
with explosives in a village south of Mosul. | :32:13. | :32:15. | |
He was suspected of terrorism by the United States and detained | :32:16. | :32:18. | |
in the Guantanamo Bay detention centre, but freed in 2004, | :32:19. | :32:20. | |
after lobbying from the British Government. | :32:21. | :32:27. | |
Lloyds Bank has reported it's highest full year | :32:28. | :32:29. | |
The bank said pre-tax profits came in at ?4.2 billion, | :32:30. | :32:35. | |
nearly three times higher than last year. | :32:36. | :32:37. | |
The profit is a boost to the government as it aims | :32:38. | :32:40. | |
to return Lloyds to full private ownership in the next few months. | :32:41. | :32:42. | |
The bank was bailed out by taxpayers in 2008 | :32:43. | :32:45. | |
That's taxpayers, not Breakfast! We haven't got that kind of money. | :32:46. | :33:01. | |
The cost of essential repairs to school buildings in England has | :33:02. | :33:03. | |
already reached almost ?7 billion, according | :33:04. | :33:05. | |
In a report published today, it warns that figure | :33:06. | :33:08. | |
But ministers have also spent money on creating places | :33:09. | :33:11. | |
in new Free Schools, some of which are under-subscribed. | :33:12. | :33:15. | |
The first anniversary of the murder of the Labour MP, Jo Cox, | :33:16. | :33:18. | |
will be marked by street parties and picnics across the country. | :33:19. | :33:21. | |
Up to 100,000 events will be held throughout the UK this summer. | :33:22. | :33:24. | |
The MP was killed in her West Yorkshire constituency last June. | :33:25. | :33:30. | |
Earlier on Breakfast, her sister Kim told us she feels | :33:31. | :33:32. | |
positive that through get-togethers, the family are creating a legacy | :33:33. | :33:34. | |
I'm the same as as Joe, Batley born and bred. People have come together | :33:35. | :33:51. | |
to support us. That's one thing that keeps you going. I keep thinking, | :33:52. | :33:56. | |
what would Jo want me to do and she would be mortified if she thought I | :33:57. | :33:59. | |
was at home with the curtains shut and the door closed and not coping. | :34:00. | :34:03. | |
I'm not going to do that. I'm not going to do that. I'm going to make | :34:04. | :34:05. | |
her proud. Jo Cox's husband, Brendan, will join | :34:06. | :34:06. | |
us in a few minutes at 8:30am. By 2030, both men and women | :34:07. | :34:09. | |
in the UK are expected to live well into their 80s, | :34:10. | :34:16. | |
for the first time. Scientists at Imperial College | :34:17. | :34:18. | |
London looked at the average life expectancy in 35 industrialised | :34:19. | :34:21. | |
nations and discovered South Koreans are expected to live the longest, | :34:22. | :34:23. | |
reaching an average age of 90 We've been talking a lot about those | :34:24. | :34:26. | |
rare ?5 notes worth ?50,000. A woman who found a rare | :34:27. | :34:44. | |
five pound note engraved with a portrait of Jane Austen, | :34:45. | :34:46. | |
has donated it to charity. The note is worth | :34:47. | :34:49. | |
an estimated ?50,000 It's now been sent back | :34:50. | :34:50. | |
to the art gallery in Kelso which commissioned it, | :34:51. | :34:54. | |
along with a letter asking that it The gallery have confirmed | :34:55. | :34:57. | |
they will auction it off in aid That's nice. You could have just | :34:58. | :35:06. | |
kept that cash for yourself, kept quiet, but descended back and raise | :35:07. | :35:10. | |
money for a great cause, well done, whoever you are. It's properly | :35:11. | :35:13. | |
generous. It's 8:35am. We'll go behind the scenes | :35:14. | :35:17. | |
of a new exhibition that weaves together the changing fashions | :35:18. | :35:23. | |
of Diana, the style icon. I love judging people on their | :35:24. | :35:32. | |
height. You're just judging them on their age, you are judging them on | :35:33. | :35:33. | |
what job they do. We'll meet two of the young Muslims | :35:34. | :35:35. | |
featured in a new series that looks at the challenges of balancing faith | :35:36. | :35:39. | |
with life in modern Britain. She has three nominations | :35:40. | :35:51. | |
at tonight's Brit Awards and is the voice behind | :35:52. | :35:54. | |
the smash hit number But first, let's get | :35:55. | :35:57. | |
the sport with Olly. I am looking forward to that. We | :35:58. | :36:11. | |
were talking earlier in the programme about sleep and what makes | :36:12. | :36:15. | |
you go to sleep. I was supposed to get an early night knowing that I | :36:16. | :36:19. | |
would be here bright and early. The football did you in. I thought I | :36:20. | :36:22. | |
couldn't leave it at half-time. Goals. Brilliant. They are usually | :36:23. | :36:29. | |
cagey. Knockout tie in the Champions League. | :36:30. | :36:31. | |
It was a breathtaking match and hold on to your hats | :36:32. | :36:33. | |
because Pep Guardiola says he expects more of the same when | :36:34. | :36:36. | |
they head to Monaco for the second leg of their Champions League tie. | :36:37. | :36:40. | |
Remember the Manchester United and Chelsea flop Radamel Falcao, | :36:41. | :36:45. | |
he had a penalty saved but was brilliant last | :36:46. | :36:49. | |
He scored twice for the french league leaders. | :36:50. | :36:53. | |
3-2 down with 20 minutes to play, City threw caution | :36:54. | :36:56. | |
John Stones addded a fourth then Leroy Sane | :36:57. | :37:04. | |
tapped in number five to cap an astonishing match. | :37:05. | :37:06. | |
Something special flor football when two teams | :37:07. | :37:17. | |
want to play in that way - attack and attack - | :37:18. | :37:19. | |
I think everybody has to congratulate... | :37:20. | :37:24. | |
Today I am happier than my colleague, | :37:25. | :37:26. | |
at 2-0 we are out and of course that team, if one team can score | :37:27. | :37:33. | |
a thousand million goals, it is Monaco. | :37:34. | :37:36. | |
Manchester United are in France with a 3-0 lead ahead of the second leg | :37:37. | :37:39. | |
Although Wayne Rooney trained yesterday after missing four | :37:40. | :37:46. | |
games with a leg injury, he hasn't travelled with the squad. | :37:47. | :37:53. | |
He has been linked to a move to the Chinese Super League. | :37:54. | :37:59. | |
Jose Mourinho said he can't guarantee he would stay at the love | :38:00. | :38:05. | |
he said he would never try to push a legend of the club to another | :38:06. | :38:07. | |
destiny. The former England cricketer | :38:08. | :38:09. | |
Ryan Sidebottom will retire at the end of next season after 20 | :38:10. | :38:10. | |
years of first class cricket. The 39 year-old who's | :38:11. | :38:14. | |
currently at Yorkshire won the World Twenty20 with England | :38:15. | :38:15. | |
and five County Championships. He's taken over a 1000 wickets | :38:16. | :38:18. | |
and says he's always tried to play We've seen the first matches of this | :38:19. | :38:21. | |
season's Netball Superleague Two of the new franchises in the ten | :38:22. | :38:29. | |
team compettion faced It was a sell-out at the emirates | :38:30. | :38:33. | |
Arena as coventry based Wasps, who are linked to the Rugby team, | :38:34. | :38:39. | |
came out on top against Sirens. The second quarter was crucial | :38:40. | :38:42. | |
as they scored 11 unanswered goals. Just returning to football, | :38:43. | :38:49. | |
filmed eating a pie on the bench during their FA Cup defeat | :38:50. | :38:58. | |
to Arsenal - non-league Sutton's reserve goalkeeper Wayne Shaw has | :38:59. | :39:00. | |
left the club after the FA said they would investigate a betting | :39:01. | :39:03. | |
stunt behind his actions. This was the moment Shaw | :39:04. | :39:05. | |
tucked into the pie - A bookmaker had offered | :39:06. | :39:08. | |
odds on that happening. Gary Lineker tweeted that football | :39:09. | :39:13. | |
has lost its sense of humour. But manager Paul Doswell | :39:14. | :39:15. | |
says it's a very sad end A big debate about this. It is a sad | :39:16. | :39:31. | |
end. It is, but the bookmakers are at fault for this. The gambling | :39:32. | :39:38. | |
commission and the FA are investigating, they have a big thing | :39:39. | :39:41. | |
against novelty bets comments asking for trouble. The troubled that he's | :39:42. | :39:46. | |
found himself in. Why some football fans are annoyed. Initially it was a | :39:47. | :39:52. | |
great bit of fun, they brought on their three substitutes, the | :39:53. | :39:55. | |
goalkeeper is 23 stone, eating a pie. He has a reputation as a | :39:56. | :39:59. | |
roly-poly keeper. When you find out it was fabricated you feel cheated. | :40:00. | :40:09. | |
But he works at the club so hard. The has said it has taken the gloss | :40:10. | :40:12. | |
off the achievements of their players. It is a non-league team. | :40:13. | :40:15. | |
105 places below Arsenal. And now we are talking about pies! Now I'm off | :40:16. | :40:23. | |
for one. Thank you. It is 8:40am. Thank you for watching us on | :40:24. | :40:28. | |
Breakfast. We return to one of our main stories now. | :40:29. | :40:29. | |
In June last year, the Labour MP, Jo Cox was murdered. | :40:30. | :40:32. | |
To mark the anniversary of her death Jo's husband Brendan wants | :40:33. | :40:36. | |
to celebrate his wife's energy and desire to bring | :40:37. | :40:38. | |
He joins us now from our London newsroom. | :40:39. | :40:44. | |
Good morning, thank you very much for talking to us. We've had Jo's | :40:45. | :40:53. | |
sister Kim with us this morning. She's been on the server with us and | :40:54. | :40:59. | |
described how the two of you got together and decided to plan the | :41:00. | :41:03. | |
next few months and to plan how to celebrate Jo's life. How important | :41:04. | :41:10. | |
it is the planning of the next few months to you and how much is it | :41:11. | :41:14. | |
helping you? When you lose somebody, anybody that has gone through that | :41:15. | :41:20. | |
experience, you will know that special occasions, anniversaries, | :41:21. | :41:22. | |
birthdays, wedding anniversaries, they are painful and difficult | :41:23. | :41:28. | |
moments. As a family, we wanted to take control of that moment and | :41:29. | :41:32. | |
really make it something that represented Jo. Her energy and | :41:33. | :41:36. | |
vitality. We did not want it to be a mournful experience because that was | :41:37. | :41:41. | |
not who Jo was. Giving the killing of Jo was such an act of terror, a | :41:42. | :41:47. | |
political act designed to divide communities, we also felt this was a | :41:48. | :41:52. | |
great opportunity to bring communities together again. That is | :41:53. | :41:56. | |
where the idea came from. A simple idea that on the 17th and 18th of | :41:57. | :42:01. | |
June, we will ask people to get together, share food with their | :42:02. | :42:03. | |
neighbours and celebrate what we have in common. Picnics, barbecues, | :42:04. | :42:08. | |
street parties. To take that opportunity to get together and | :42:09. | :42:12. | |
remember the things that we have in common. Are you actively trying to | :42:13. | :42:17. | |
make this not about politics but as you say, food, community. As your | :42:18. | :42:20. | |
wife used to say, the things that bring us together rather than the | :42:21. | :42:24. | |
things that divide us? Exactly. We spend a lot of time talking about | :42:25. | :42:29. | |
the things that divide us, whether that's referenda, elections. There | :42:30. | :42:32. | |
is a time and place for that. It is a completely legitimate part of | :42:33. | :42:36. | |
debate. We don't spend enough time talking about the things that unite | :42:37. | :42:41. | |
us. If you think about in moments like the Olympics, the Jubilee, the | :42:42. | :42:46. | |
big lunch run comedy similar street parties on an annual basis, people | :42:47. | :42:49. | |
love those opportunities. They come together and celebrate their | :42:50. | :42:54. | |
community. They make new links in their community. The reason Jo went | :42:55. | :43:00. | |
into politics, she was not a hugely ideological politician, but she went | :43:01. | :43:03. | |
into politics because she had a sense of community and wanting to | :43:04. | :43:07. | |
represent a community and play her part in bringing community together. | :43:08. | :43:10. | |
There could be no better at than on the anniversary of her death, doing | :43:11. | :43:15. | |
that in a way which is fine and irreverent and that people take part | :43:16. | :43:18. | |
in because there was to get together with their neighbours but also | :43:19. | :43:21. | |
something that sends a really strong message that actually, there is more | :43:22. | :43:29. | |
that unites us than divides us. You mentioned the times that can be | :43:30. | :43:32. | |
difficult for you as a family, those first anniversaries, birthdays, | :43:33. | :43:34. | |
Mother's Day, that sort of thing. When you are in those darker | :43:35. | :43:39. | |
moments, how much are you confused by what you know Jo would want you | :43:40. | :43:45. | |
to do? I have a very clear sense of what Jo would want me to do on the | :43:46. | :43:51. | |
day... On the day she died I talked about having two priority. One, the | :43:52. | :43:56. | |
first and foremost, looking after our kids and making sure they | :43:57. | :44:01. | |
continued to have joy and love and make sure they feel safe and secure. | :44:02. | :44:06. | |
And to take on the hatred that killed her. That hatred, I think, is | :44:07. | :44:11. | |
something we need to worry about. It is on the rise in some places. But | :44:12. | :44:16. | |
it's not what our country is about. From knowing Jo as well as I knew Jo | :44:17. | :44:23. | |
and having a similar sense of things, I was clear about what she | :44:24. | :44:26. | |
would have done in different situations. I know she would have | :44:27. | :44:31. | |
loved this idea because it's fun. It's not, sort of common too | :44:32. | :44:37. | |
serious. It's what she was. It is Jo and it is rooted in local community. | :44:38. | :44:40. | |
She would have been excited about this. Our kids are excited about | :44:41. | :44:43. | |
this, getting together with our neighbours. I hope other people, | :44:44. | :44:48. | |
whether or not they have a connection to, whether they know or | :44:49. | :44:55. | |
not -- connection to Jo. What ever it is. We hope it will change the | :44:56. | :44:59. | |
national mood. We are fixated on the things that divide us. But we want | :45:00. | :45:03. | |
to talk more about the things we have in common, which most people | :45:04. | :45:07. | |
feel and Jo felt is much more, fundamental. That is what has | :45:08. | :45:13. | |
created interest in this event. It is a very emotional time for you. As | :45:14. | :45:19. | |
Jo's sister was saying as well, it is that public part where those who | :45:20. | :45:24. | |
knew her, either as an MP or have learned a bit more about her since | :45:25. | :45:28. | |
her death can celebrate her life. As a man who has simply lost the woman | :45:29. | :45:32. | |
that he loved, there must be that private moment of grief for you and | :45:33. | :45:34. | |
your family as well I'm sure? Yes and that will be private and I | :45:35. | :45:42. | |
won't talk about what we will do as a family but actually alongside | :45:43. | :45:46. | |
that, as I said at the start, it's really about trying to take control | :45:47. | :45:51. | |
of this moment and shape it in a way that you know that Jo would have | :45:52. | :45:55. | |
wanted and our family want to be part of and we hope others will as | :45:56. | :46:00. | |
well. It's been amazing so far the level of response, whether that's | :46:01. | :46:03. | |
from organisations, like those that have come on board from Big Lunch to | :46:04. | :46:12. | |
the RSPB, RNLI, Help For Heroes, the major religious groups, some great | :46:13. | :46:15. | |
British institutions are part of this, but also, I think, more | :46:16. | :46:19. | |
importantly, the reason I'm so optimistic about the size and scale | :46:20. | :46:22. | |
of this is because we are tapping into something which already exists. | :46:23. | :46:27. | |
I think people already have this sense, they are sick of the emphasis | :46:28. | :46:31. | |
on difference and want to talk about more of the things that unite us. I | :46:32. | :46:34. | |
want to tap into that, being British we'd love to get together with | :46:35. | :46:37. | |
neighbours but we need an excuse to do that and reach out to people so | :46:38. | :46:41. | |
we hope this is an excuse for everybody out there to do just that. | :46:42. | :46:46. | |
Brendan Cox, lovely to talk to you this morning and I'm sure everybody | :46:47. | :46:49. | |
at home wishes you and the children and all the family the very best. | :46:50. | :46:54. | |
And to see how you can get involved, or to see what events | :46:55. | :46:57. | |
are taking place near you, just go to www.greatgettogether.org. | :46:58. | :47:01. | |
In just a moment, Carol will have the weather for us | :47:02. | :47:08. | |
She's there to check out a new exhibition | :47:09. | :47:13. | |
of some of Princess Diana's most iconic outfits. | :47:14. | :47:27. | |
But before we hear from Carol show, let's take a look behind the scenes | :47:28. | :47:30. | |
The eyes of the world followed her and her fashion choices. | :47:31. | :47:34. | |
Princess Diana's style both reflected the time whilst | :47:35. | :47:36. | |
influencing others and now fans of Diana can see some | :47:37. | :47:38. | |
of her most well-known outfits at an exhibition at her former home, | :47:39. | :47:41. | |
It's in this room that we first meet Lady Diana Spencer | :47:42. | :47:46. | |
when she's about to step onto that international stage. | :47:47. | :47:52. | |
So this room really reflects her early love of frills, ruffles, lace. | :47:53. | :47:55. | |
She really enjoyed that sort of New Romantic style. | :47:56. | :48:04. | |
The exhibition charts how her tastes developed and style matured, | :48:05. | :48:06. | |
featuring iconic dresses by 11 different designers. | :48:07. | :48:09. | |
This point in the exhibition really marks the moment where Diana became | :48:10. | :48:12. | |
more confident and playful in her fashion choices. | :48:13. | :48:15. | |
Famously in 1987 she made the daring choice to wear one red glove and one | :48:16. | :48:20. | |
black glove with this dress on an official visit to Spain. | :48:21. | :48:23. | |
Victor Edelstein designed one of the Princess's | :48:24. | :48:25. | |
She wore it for that envy-making moment when John Travolta | :48:26. | :48:30. | |
whisked her around the dance floor at the White House. | :48:31. | :48:35. | |
When she ordered it I didn't know when she was going to wear it. | :48:36. | :48:38. | |
She just ordered it because she liked it and then one | :48:39. | :48:46. | |
saw that she'd worn it to go to the White House. | :48:47. | :48:48. | |
I was talking to the curator at Hampton Court and she felt it | :48:49. | :48:52. | |
marked the transition from her being rather more | :48:53. | :48:54. | |
girlish to suddenly looking like a sophisticated woman, | :48:55. | :48:55. | |
and perhaps that's true because it's obviously not a girlish dress | :48:56. | :48:58. | |
so perhaps that's also what made it so noticeable. | :48:59. | :49:00. | |
And dancing with John Travolta helps. | :49:01. | :49:03. | |
As her marriage came to an end Diana's style | :49:04. | :49:06. | |
This red dress by Catherine Walker among one of the most | :49:07. | :49:12. | |
She was very involved in charity work and I think she wanted | :49:13. | :49:20. | |
to communicate the fact that she wasn't just a clotheshorse, | :49:21. | :49:25. | |
a fashion sort of clotheshorse, she actually was a working mother, | :49:26. | :49:28. | |
she had a job to do, and she was deeply committed | :49:29. | :49:31. | |
to many of the charities that she was patron of. | :49:32. | :49:34. | |
Diana wore the final dress in the exhibition to the preview | :49:35. | :49:37. | |
The proceeds went to an AIDS charity. | :49:38. | :49:42. | |
She sold 79 of her most famous gowns and the press widely reported | :49:43. | :49:47. | |
that this was her closing a chapter on her royal life and style | :49:48. | :49:50. | |
Diana's fashion story opens to the public on Friday with those | :49:51. | :49:57. | |
memorable dresses remaining on display for the next two years. | :49:58. | :49:59. | |
And Lady Kirkwood of Breakfast is at Kensington Palace | :50:00. | :50:12. | |
Good morning. It is fabulous being here looking at these fashion | :50:13. | :50:24. | |
sketches behind me, they are originals. I have a fashion designer | :50:25. | :50:29. | |
who designed address or two for Princess Diana. What a fabulous name | :50:30. | :50:39. | |
you have got. It must have been daunting designing address for the | :50:40. | :50:44. | |
Princess? Most people will tell you Princess Diana had the amazing | :50:45. | :50:48. | |
ability of making you feel comfortable at home within seconds | :50:49. | :50:53. | |
of talking to you. So I was never nervous, I was excited whenever I | :50:54. | :50:57. | |
met her but never nervous. Your dresses aren't in this exhibition at | :50:58. | :51:01. | |
the moment but they will be late on because the exhibition runs for a | :51:02. | :51:05. | |
couple of years and the dresses change. We have got some pictures of | :51:06. | :51:10. | |
some dresses you designed. The first one we are going to look at is the | :51:11. | :51:15. | |
red silk dress. She wore that in Washington. It was for the Red Cross | :51:16. | :51:21. | |
Ball. She knew it had to be a fairly serious dress. But when you turn the | :51:22. | :51:26. | |
dress around you will see it has a deep the down to the back because | :51:27. | :51:30. | |
she knew it was going into party mode after that so every dress was | :51:31. | :51:35. | |
worked out for the event. These things didn't happen accidentally. | :51:36. | :51:40. | |
Then there is the Swan Lake dress, the powder blue one, my favourite of | :51:41. | :51:45. | |
the more. That was the Princess's favourite as well, everything was | :51:46. | :51:49. | |
right, the colour, the move, the length, it was very short for a | :51:50. | :51:54. | |
princess. We had to be careful with the protocol there. She absolutely | :51:55. | :51:58. | |
loved that dress and in fact I made her a long version of it for her | :51:59. | :52:04. | |
36th birthday in long Chantilly lace which she was delighted with. You | :52:05. | :52:09. | |
have brought some cards, if I may I will show it to the camera. The | :52:10. | :52:14. | |
Princess wrote you thank you letters which are such a treasure. Jacques | :52:15. | :52:21. | |
Azagury, it has been such a pleasure talking to you. Sadly that is all we | :52:22. | :52:28. | |
have time for. You're welcome. The weather outside isn't as nice as it | :52:29. | :52:33. | |
is inside the exhibition. We have blustery winds and small brain. The | :52:34. | :52:37. | |
strongest winds today will be across the north-east of Scotland. Gusting | :52:38. | :52:44. | |
from 70 to 80 mph which may lead to some disruption but for the rest of | :52:45. | :52:49. | |
Scotland you are looking at quite a lot of dry weather but some showers, | :52:50. | :52:53. | |
some wintry over the hills. Across northern England a lot of dry | :52:54. | :52:58. | |
weather, just a few showers, but south of that from the Midlands into | :52:59. | :53:02. | |
East Anglia, Essex, Kent, down to the south coast we have a weather | :53:03. | :53:07. | |
front producing a lot of cloud and patchy light rain and drizzle. In | :53:08. | :53:11. | |
the south-west it is quite a murky start, some hill fog and general | :53:12. | :53:15. | |
dampness, and it will be wet across Wales. If you are just stepping out | :53:16. | :53:20. | |
there that in mind. In Northern Ireland it will be a dry and bright | :53:21. | :53:25. | |
start but there will be rain later, some of that will be heavy. Heading | :53:26. | :53:29. | |
through the day, very slowly the strong winds across the north-east | :53:30. | :53:33. | |
of Scotland, the northern islands, the far north of Scotland and | :53:34. | :53:37. | |
Aberdeenshire will start to ease. There will be dry and bright weather | :53:38. | :53:42. | |
but in the south where we have a weather front it will pivot, move | :53:43. | :53:46. | |
northwards and rejuvenate soak the rain will turn heavy. That is | :53:47. | :53:50. | |
significant because heading into the evening and overnight the rain will | :53:51. | :53:53. | |
migrate northwards through the rest of Wales, the Midlands, East Anglia | :53:54. | :53:58. | |
and northern England and join forces with storm Doris coming in over | :53:59. | :54:01. | |
Northern Ireland, also producing heavy rain. As that engages with | :54:02. | :54:06. | |
cold air across the far north of England, the Southern uplands and | :54:07. | :54:10. | |
central lowlands it will turn into snow Gredley even at low levels so | :54:11. | :54:15. | |
there may be disruption. As well as that we have strong winds, the Met | :54:16. | :54:19. | |
office has a weather warning out for the strongest winds across North | :54:20. | :54:22. | |
Wales, the North Midlands, Norfolk and heading up into the far north of | :54:23. | :54:28. | |
England. Gusts of 60, 70, possibly 80 mph even inland. To the south of | :54:29. | :54:33. | |
that gusting from 50-60 mph so disruption is possible. As well as | :54:34. | :54:37. | |
the wind we have heavy rain moving across Northern Ireland, Wales, | :54:38. | :54:41. | |
northern England, clearing into the North Sea and where we do not have | :54:42. | :54:45. | |
the rain there will be significant snow across the central lowlands and | :54:46. | :54:49. | |
the Southern uplands in particular. It will move through quickly and | :54:50. | :54:53. | |
behind it in the afternoon there will be brighter conditions. Friday | :54:54. | :54:57. | |
is much quieter, the winds will ease, dry and brighter to start with | :54:58. | :55:01. | |
but then more rain coming in from the west. I must say it has been | :55:02. | :55:06. | |
such a pleasure being here this morning. What an absolute treat. | :55:07. | :55:12. | |
Carol, you've done a sterling job, you've been inside looking at the | :55:13. | :55:16. | |
dresses and out in the garden and then back in again. A true pro. | :55:17. | :55:22. | |
Carol would get the job every day. Over everybody. | :55:23. | :55:24. | |
Earlier this morning we were talking about job interviews - | :55:25. | :55:26. | |
and the crafty questions bosses throw at you to | :55:27. | :55:28. | |
It does happen, doesn't it? Yes, it does. | :55:29. | :55:33. | |
Apparently, "If you were a vegetable - what would you be?" | :55:34. | :55:36. | |
All sorts of weird questions people get thrown in an interview and is | :55:37. | :55:47. | |
trying to work out what sort of person you are and whether you are | :55:48. | :55:50. | |
good at problem solving and thinking on your feet and that sort of thing. | :55:51. | :55:54. | |
I spoke to a guy this morning who runs a recruitment and training | :55:55. | :55:57. | |
company but many people might recognise him from The Apprentice | :55:58. | :56:01. | |
where there is nowhere harder when it comes to interviews and nowhere | :56:02. | :56:04. | |
that you get more publicly humiliated than on the apprentice | :56:05. | :56:07. | |
and he told me what his toughest question was. The question I was | :56:08. | :56:13. | |
asked, what does a jumbo jet wait, it's not the answer but the logical | :56:14. | :56:18. | |
approach you get the answer from. When you asked those questions it's | :56:19. | :56:22. | |
about finding out how the person put on the spot deals with pressure, how | :56:23. | :56:26. | |
they cope, because the roles we recruit for our graduate sales | :56:27. | :56:29. | |
positions so people have to cope under pressure so by asking | :56:30. | :56:32. | |
questions off-the-cuff it tests that a little bit and their logical | :56:33. | :56:36. | |
approach to be answered, to see how they work at the answer even though | :56:37. | :56:39. | |
they wouldn't have a clue how that was, and see their thought process | :56:40. | :56:43. | |
behind it. I'm going to put your thought process to the test now. | :56:44. | :56:48. | |
Some of these made the top of the list, lots of people have sent in | :56:49. | :56:51. | |
their terrible questions. Here we go. I am getting nervous. Now, to | :56:52. | :56:59. | |
start off. Question number one, Sally Nugent. If you were a biscuit | :57:00. | :57:04. | |
what this kid would you be? Chocolate hobnob. And why? Hidden | :57:05. | :57:11. | |
depths, sweet. Dan Walker, what am I thinking now? Why am I here? No, you | :57:12. | :57:18. | |
are thinking... Give that man a job. This man is ideal for the job. | :57:19. | :57:25. | |
Teamwork is not allowed. How would your enemy describe you? Terrifying. | :57:26. | :57:36. | |
For what reason. Because it is true. Because you are a powerful woman. | :57:37. | :57:46. | |
Thank you! Teamwork! What is the most selfish thing you have ever | :57:47. | :57:53. | |
done? I once ate my kids' Easter egg supply. Is that really bad? You are | :57:54. | :57:58. | |
not given the job based on that entirely. Sally, if your best friend | :57:59. | :58:01. | |
was here what is the advice he or she would give you? About a job | :58:02. | :58:08. | |
interview? What advice? Be yourself, always. Isn't that always the | :58:09. | :58:14. | |
advice? Isn't that the interview advice everybody gives just before? | :58:15. | :58:20. | |
Be yourself. That's very true. I'm really impressed, you did well. I | :58:21. | :58:24. | |
still wouldn't give you the job. Who got it? Even though Sally was being | :58:25. | :58:34. | |
herself. I would give it to Dan. My favourite question somebody sent in | :58:35. | :58:37. | |
is if you were a wrestler what would your walk on music be and why, I | :58:38. | :58:42. | |
will leave you with that? It would be the eye of the Tiger. A little | :58:43. | :58:47. | |
bit obvious but it suits you. Are you going to share yours? No. It | :58:48. | :58:53. | |
is just coming up to nine o'clock, it is 8:58am. You are watching | :58:54. | :58:57. | |
Breakfast. In recent years, British Muslims | :58:58. | :58:59. | |
have found themselves thrust Now a new series is set to provide | :59:00. | :59:01. | |
an insight into what life is like for young Muslims living | :59:02. | :59:05. | |
in the UK, exploring In a moment, we'll speak to Bella | :59:06. | :59:08. | |
and Sabrina who feature in tonight's programme as Bella tries | :59:09. | :59:12. | |
to find a husband. 24-year-old Bella is part | :59:13. | :59:14. | |
of a generation of British Muslim women who have turned their back | :59:15. | :59:17. | |
on the idea of an arranged marriage and want to choose | :59:18. | :59:20. | |
their husband for themselves. My auntie is like, "have | :59:21. | :59:24. | |
you found somebody?" My mum's even like, hurry | :59:25. | :59:27. | |
up and find somebody. What? | :59:28. | :59:29. | |
24. Just, sort of, judging | :59:30. | :59:34. | |
people on their height. You're just, sort of, | :59:35. | :59:42. | |
judging on their age. You're, sort of, judging | :59:43. | :59:45. | |
on what job they do. Joining us now are sisters, | :59:46. | :59:50. | |
Bella and Sabrina Nabi. You almost like the first generation | :59:51. | :00:01. | |
of British Muslims trying to live in a different way and meet people in | :00:02. | :00:07. | |
way that there aren't any rules yet, are there? The structure isn't | :00:08. | :00:10. | |
there, perhaps, for you to go out and find a life partner. Our parents | :00:11. | :00:15. | |
did it more traditionally. We are just breaking out that tradition and | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
culture. We are venturing out and embracing the British culture but | :00:21. | :00:25. | |
trying to keep within our faith. Also our Pakistani culture. Trying | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
to bring three different worlds together. Three different worlds and | :00:29. | :00:34. | |
a camera shoved in your face. Yeah! Even those awkward situations might | :00:35. | :00:41. | |
feel more unnatural. I was saying that before. Everyone says that but | :00:42. | :00:47. | |
it got so close, the producer and director, felt like I was talking to | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
him. I forgot there was a camera sometimes and I blurted everything | :00:51. | :00:55. | |
out to him. O no, what did I say? You are a dream guest! You are | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
thinking this is going to be fantastic. It is great to watch. How | :01:00. | :01:03. | |
challenging is it for you to find someone to marry? It is quite hard. | :01:04. | :01:10. | |
We have to be honest. It is hard for us. We can't just go to a bar and | :01:11. | :01:15. | |
meet a guy like a lot of our friends can do. You can't date. We can't | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
date. If you meet someone and think you want to go further with this | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
relationship and you go on a date and someone sees you, they can jump | :01:25. | :01:30. | |
to circumstances sometimes. You want to keep everyone happy. It makes it | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
hard to meet people. Every one of these meetings has two side, let's | :01:35. | :01:38. | |
have another minute from the programme. This is Ashraf explaining | :01:39. | :01:44. | |
what he wants from a wife. The boys are looking for a special girl that | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
doesn't go out so much, that doesn't approach the boys so much. Who has | :01:50. | :01:54. | |
her head screwed on. She knows her boundary. If it comes down to a | :01:55. | :02:01. | |
proper Islamic household, women should be in one section and men | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
should be... There should be no mixing. There is no real need to. If | :02:05. | :02:09. | |
I was going to bring my friends in I was taken to the front room and my | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
wife can knock on the door when there is some tea there. Open the | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
door, get the tea, sit down, she doesn't need to meet anyone. That is | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
how it would work. Come on, girls. My god! If you watched the rest of | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
the episode, he did do a massive turn. He changes completely. What | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
that shows you is, there is traditional... You are fighting | :02:34. | :02:35. | |
against that traditional element. Yeah. Of the faith with the life you | :02:36. | :02:44. | |
are living in modern Britain. Fascinating arguments and | :02:45. | :02:46. | |
discussions between different generations in the family. And | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
interpretation. Some people are really extreme saying you can't do | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
this, can't do that and some people say, let's chill out, it's a bit | :02:55. | :03:00. | |
more flexible. It is that cultural thing. You can't sit there, they | :03:01. | :03:07. | |
have to sit there, keep apart. You need to approach people nicely and | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
comfortably say, it is opaque, is not the end of the world, you can do | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
this. In the programme, we see new situations now where you do meet | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
potential partners. Yeah. You have to have a conversation with people. | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
Before you even think about marriage. You meet someone, then | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
marriage. The middle bit is important. Very often, if you want | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
to have a job or Mac work, it isn't necessarily what the men are looking | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
for. Not always. Sometimes they do but some of them want you to stay at | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
home and do the household chores. I think it's because a lot of us have | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
got educated lately. We have degrees, went to uni, we are living | :03:49. | :03:50. | |
our lives and having fun. They need to intermingle and embrace it a bit | :03:51. | :03:57. | |
more. The expectations, what they've been brought up with as well. They | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
are expecting you to do what their mothers would do. It's a bit like, | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
no, I have a life and a job and this is what I'm going to do. Well done | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
for dealing with the awkwardness of the TV cameras, it's a fascinating | :04:11. | :04:11. | |
watch. Thank you for talking to us. Extremely British Muslims begins | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
on Thursday 2nd March It's fast approaching five minutes | :04:16. | :04:26. | |
past nine. And singer Anne-Marie is here later. Let's look | :04:27. | :06:00. | |
Join me at 1.30pm for all the lunchtime news. | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
Now it's time to hand you back to Sally and Dan. | :06:04. | :06:05. | |
Our next guest is a pop star who refers to herself | :06:06. | :06:17. | |
Which is an apt description - as alongside her pop career | :06:18. | :06:25. | |
she keeps the martial arts theme going strong, | :06:26. | :06:27. | |
as she's a three time world karate champion. | :06:28. | :06:28. | |
Singer Anne-Marie has a hit single under her black belt | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
as her collaboration with Clean Bandit spent nine weeks | :06:33. | :06:34. | |
Tonight she's up for three awards at the Brits. | :06:35. | :06:38. | |
We'll speak to her in a moment, but first let's listen | :06:39. | :06:41. | |
What a coat! It's not that cold in here but I love it. This is her most | :06:42. | :06:48. | |
famous single so far. MUSIC: Rockabye by Clean Bandit | :06:49. | :06:50. | |
(Anne-Marie Sean Paul) # "Ooh, love, no-one's ever | :06:51. | :06:52. | |
gonna hurt you, love # I'm gonna give you all of my love | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
Nobody matters like you." # "Your life ain't gon' be | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
nothing like my life # You're gonna grow | :07:00. | :07:04. | |
and have a good life It is a great little song, you still | :07:05. | :07:41. | |
love it. Yes. If a lovely message and that is what music is all about, | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
you got to write songs with strong meanings. How did that song come to | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
you? I was in my dressing room at a festival, can't even remember which | :07:50. | :07:55. | |
one. Were on tour. Yes, I was on tour. It got sent to my inbox in my | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
e-mail and I was like, listened to it and I was like my need to record | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
this, I loved it straightaway. I loved it. It wasn't a case of gum I | :08:05. | :08:07. | |
think this can do well, you love the music. -- a case of, I think. And | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
then you were on tour, you might have heard this, it's number one! | :08:14. | :08:17. | |
For a matter of weeks. I will only sing a song if I really loved it. It | :08:18. | :08:23. | |
don't matter to me who is the song is, who is a part of it. It touched | :08:24. | :08:32. | |
me. And Sean Paul are on it and Clean Bandit. Hearing it from when | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
it was out was a short space of time. Two weeks? Wow. I flew back | :08:38. | :08:43. | |
from that festival and went straight into the studio, recorded it and I | :08:44. | :08:49. | |
didn't have much time to think about what was happening, what was going | :08:50. | :08:54. | |
to happen. It was a journey. We have a view minutes into this interview | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
and still not come back to the karate thing. -- A few minutes. | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
We've never had a guest on the server who is firmly in the pop | :09:04. | :09:06. | |
stardom side of things who also happens to be a three-time karate | :09:07. | :09:10. | |
world champion, where does that fit in? I started karate when I was | :09:11. | :09:18. | |
nine. I absolutely it. I was a really angry, horrible teenager. You | :09:19. | :09:25. | |
channelled it into karate? Yeah, I became world champion. I absolutely | :09:26. | :09:28. | |
loved it so much but I haven't really got much time to do it now. | :09:29. | :09:32. | |
But I will still go at do it whenever I've got time because it is | :09:33. | :09:36. | |
amazing to me. It requires a huge amount of discipline. Yeah. To be | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
successful. Which is why I think it's helped me. Before I started | :09:43. | :09:48. | |
karate, I was so short... I had a short attention span, couldn't | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
concentrate on anything. I didn't think... I didn't know that would | :09:54. | :09:56. | |
help towards this career but it totally did. Like, it taught me so | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
much about setting goals and going for it and sticking at things. Which | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
is really great. Not necessarily in a violent way but have you ever had | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
to use it in normal life? Yeah. Come on, tell us! Do you know what? It's | :10:10. | :10:19. | |
more like actually feeling confident in any situation. Which I think that | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
is where it helps the most. I always seem to have an instinct that | :10:25. | :10:27. | |
something is happening or Mac something is going to happen so I | :10:28. | :10:30. | |
always move over and try and calm everything down but that's good. | :10:31. | :10:36. | |
Yeah. I just want to help people all the time. If someone is going to | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
fight, I would run over and say, oi! . It's not aggression it's about | :10:42. | :10:48. | |
control. That helped me as a teenager. My mum and dad were like, | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
yes. Your mum and dad are still back home in Essex. Yeah. They knew as a | :10:53. | :10:58. | |
young girl they needed to get you into karate to get at focus but what | :10:59. | :11:02. | |
sort of support do they give you now? They are the best parents ever. | :11:03. | :11:06. | |
I lived at home with my mum, my dad my grandad and my sister. They are | :11:07. | :11:14. | |
the best family ever. Totally amazing. We've been talking a lot | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
about huge success so far. But actually you've got exciting stuff | :11:19. | :11:21. | |
coming up. We will listen to your brand-new single. | :11:22. | :11:23. | |
Let's listen to your brand new single, Ciao Adios. | :11:24. | :11:32. | |
Did we see a flash of the same jacket? We did. Is that the Brits | :11:33. | :12:01. | |
outfit for today? Talking about that, we are talking about you, for | :12:02. | :12:08. | |
three awards tonight. From a personal perspective, the British | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
breakthrough act is a huge want to win, isn't it? That would be | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
amazing. Obviously, Rockabye would be incredible but that is a | :12:17. | :12:19. | |
collaboration. Breakthrough is just me. Recognising me. I'm the only | :12:20. | :12:26. | |
girl in the category, I feel like I've half won it already. Just by | :12:27. | :12:32. | |
being nominated? Yeah. I'm doing it for the girls. What are you | :12:33. | :12:36. | |
expecting tonight? Are you nervous? Yeah, my heartbeat is already going. | :12:37. | :12:41. | |
And I am wearing high heels, that is a bit scary. If it comes down to a | :12:42. | :12:45. | |
vote of, you could always say let's have a karate fight. Fight? I wasn't | :12:46. | :12:51. | |
going to say fight but... It is still one of the big occasions in | :12:52. | :12:53. | |
