:00:00. > :00:07.Tonight at Ten: the latest flashpoint in Europe's migration

:00:08. > :00:15.crisis, this time on the Greek border with Macedonia.

:00:16. > :00:18.Macedonian police used stun grenades to drive back the migrants

:00:19. > :00:22.and refugees trying to make their way to northern Europe.

:00:23. > :00:32.They don't open the borders, Macedonia, don't open the borders

:00:33. > :00:41.and the people are coming more and more.

:00:42. > :00:44.And 1500 miles away, another migrant crisis,

:00:45. > :00:46.this time in Calais, where a demolition team destroys

:00:47. > :00:50.We'll be reporting on Europe's latest response to the crisis

:00:51. > :00:55.Hundreds of thousands of retail jobs at risk in the decade to come

:00:56. > :00:57.as more and more shopping moves online.

:00:58. > :01:00.In America it's the last day of campaigning before the busiest

:01:01. > :01:02.single day of the presidential primaries, Super Tuesday.

:01:03. > :01:09.The weapons that could have 'unleashed carnage' on Britain's

:01:10. > :01:12.streets, the evidence presented at the trial of four people

:01:13. > :01:19.And the race row at the Oscars, but what is Hollywood proposing

:01:20. > :01:24.Is Hollywood racist? You're downright Hollywood is racist.

:01:25. > :01:28.And coming up in Sportsday on BBC News, Manu Tuilangi has tonight

:01:29. > :01:30.joined England's training squad ahead of their next Six Nations

:01:31. > :01:53.match with Wales after recently returning from injury.

:01:54. > :01:57.The latest flashpoint in Europe's migration crisis

:01:58. > :02:00.is Greece's border with Macedonia , where thousands of migrants have

:02:01. > :02:04.been driven back with tear gas by Macedonian police.

:02:05. > :02:12.The migrants had stormed one of the main gates in the border

:02:13. > :02:17.fence, close to a camp at Idomeni, where 7,000 people

:02:18. > :02:19.are using facilities designed to cater for just 2,000.

:02:20. > :02:21.Macedonia is one of several European countries introducing

:02:22. > :02:23.border controls to limit the number of people

:02:24. > :02:31.Our correspondent, Danny Savage, is at the camp.

:02:32. > :02:35.This border camp is full way beyond its capacity.

:02:36. > :02:38.After a night out in the open, much of the day is spent

:02:39. > :02:40.7,000 mainly Iraqis and Syrians are here.

:02:41. > :02:43.Many of them have the right papers to move on from Greece

:02:44. > :02:45.but the border is hardly ever open and they

:02:46. > :02:51.You have to wait for a long time for food, toilets, everywhere.

:02:52. > :03:00.And a crowd marched on the border gate.

:03:01. > :03:03.As countries further up the migrant trail restrict the flow of people,

:03:04. > :03:08.So the people took direct action, forcing open

:03:09. > :03:15.This is the view from the Macedonian side, a border guard fires tear gas

:03:16. > :03:24.On the other side of the fence the man in the front of the picture

:03:25. > :03:26.in the blue jacket is hit by that canister.

:03:27. > :03:33.There's panic as the toxic gas starts spreading.

:03:34. > :03:35.A boy staggers from the crash, retching.

:03:36. > :03:38.Others collapse with their eyes and lungs burning.

:03:39. > :03:47.Today, on a European border, children were tear-gassed.

:03:48. > :03:49.Those who have worked here for months know why

:03:50. > :03:53.People just feel like nothing is moving, they are worried

:03:54. > :03:55.that the border is not going to open at all.

:03:56. > :03:57.They saw how quickly restrictions were

:03:58. > :03:59.implemented for the Afghanis and I think there's a real sense

:04:00. > :04:01.amongst the Syrians and Iraqis that at any

:04:02. > :04:10.It's quite a while now since the tear gas was fired

:04:11. > :04:13.but you can still smell it and tasted in the air as well.

:04:14. > :04:15.So this stand-off continues with several

:04:16. > :04:17.hundred people still here at the border gates.

:04:18. > :04:20.And the violence will continue as well, if the numbers here keep

:04:21. > :04:21.growing and people keep getting frustrated.

:04:22. > :04:23.And some people here understand why the Macedonian

:04:24. > :04:25.authorities reacted in the way they did.

:04:26. > :04:32.Because they throw stones on police and they don't care about them.

:04:33. > :04:35.This evening this huge encampment settled

:04:36. > :04:38.down to another night in fields in northern Greece.

:04:39. > :04:48.They know there are people in Europe who don't want

:04:49. > :04:51.them, but they also know Germany's doors are open and can't comprehend

:04:52. > :04:52.why the countries between here and there

:04:53. > :04:55.Danny Savage, BBC News, on the Greece

:04:56. > :05:00.Some 1500 miles away from Greece in Northern France

:05:01. > :05:02.another migrant crisis has been developing.

:05:03. > :05:04.Much of the camp near the port of Calais,

:05:05. > :05:08.known as 'the jungle', where thousands of people have been

:05:09. > :05:10.living in makeshift shelters, has been dismantled.

:05:11. > :05:15.Some of the migrants say they might be forced to claim asylum in France

:05:16. > :05:17.rather than making the journey to Britain.

:05:18. > :05:23.Our correspondent Lucy Williamson reports from Calais.

:05:24. > :05:27.They came in at breakfast time, the arrival of the state

:05:28. > :05:35.One by one, migrants waking in the camp's southern zone

:05:36. > :05:38.were told they had an hour to pack their things and leave,

:05:39. > :05:43.as all around, demolition teams took the empty shelters apart.

:05:44. > :05:47.It didn't take long for others to join in the destruction.

:05:48. > :05:49.A fire at one of the shelters set riot police against

:05:50. > :05:53.Among them, activists, who have been urging residents

:05:54. > :06:03.What was meant to be a gentle eviction through encouragement

:06:04. > :06:05.and information became a blunt exchange of tear gas and rocks

:06:06. > :06:12.Just a few hours in, and already the plan for eviction

:06:13. > :06:18.The question here is who the police are fighting -

:06:19. > :06:20.the migrants themselves or the activists who say

:06:21. > :06:34.Those who leave are being offered places in government container homes

:06:35. > :06:36.just a few minutes walk away in the camp's

:06:37. > :06:52.Unpopular with those not planning to stay. You have to enter

:06:53. > :06:56.fingerprints. If you give them fingerprints, and leave and go to

:06:57. > :07:01.another country, they can say for you, you asked for asylum in France

:07:02. > :07:05.already, so we cannot give you documents.

:07:06. > :07:08.By dusk, the battle was underway again, a second fire in the place

:07:09. > :07:16.The water cannon brought in, not for the fire,

:07:17. > :07:24.And then teargas for anyone else still standing nearby.

:07:25. > :07:26.TRANSLATION: The north border activists set fire to the tents

:07:27. > :07:30.That is not acceptable and it is normal that we have

:07:31. > :07:37.Among the weapons on display in the camp

:07:38. > :07:44.tonight, a machete, carried openly, within metres of the police.

:07:45. > :07:46.The stakes in the crisis here are growing, and this,

:07:47. > :07:51.says Calais, is Britain's problem, not ours.

:07:52. > :07:53.As we've seen the migrant crisis is putting extreme pressure

:07:54. > :07:55.on Europe's borders, and different countries

:07:56. > :08:06.It's not just Macedonia which is putting up fences.

:08:07. > :08:08.Bulgaria has built a razor-wire fence, 15-feet high,

:08:09. > :08:10.along parts of its border with Turkey.

:08:11. > :08:15.Hungary has put up barriers along its borders with Serbia and Croatia.

:08:16. > :08:19.There are also fences between Croatia and Slovenia,

:08:20. > :08:24.Austria has also been heavily criticised for limiting the amount

:08:25. > :08:30.of asylum applications it accepts to 80 a day.

:08:31. > :08:33.All this has meant that migrants and refugees arriving in Greece

:08:34. > :08:36.are having trouble moving north, deepening the country's crisis.

:08:37. > :08:39.Our Europe editor Katya Adler is in Athens tonight.

:08:40. > :08:47.We have talked a bit about the response of individual countries,

:08:48. > :08:52.what about the response of the European Union? Well, the EU has

:08:53. > :08:57.plenty of plans in place. It wants to form an EU border and coastguard.

:08:58. > :09:01.It wants security checks for those coming from outside the EU to the

:09:02. > :09:06.inside. It wants to expel failed asylum seekers more efficiently. But

:09:07. > :09:09.that is all taking too long. In the meantime those countries you

:09:10. > :09:12.mentioned who had hundreds of thousands of refugees and others

:09:13. > :09:16.travelling across them from their entry point into Europe here in

:09:17. > :09:20.Greece, they are breaking ranks and imposing their own border controls

:09:21. > :09:25.to protect themselves, they say. Tensions are really running high.

:09:26. > :09:29.Greece is panicking, still struggling economic too. Now worried

:09:30. > :09:31.it's going to be left looking after 70,000 angry stuck refugees and

:09:32. > :09:37.others by the end of March because of those border closures. Austria's

:09:38. > :09:40.Chancellor says Greece only has itself to blame for acting as a

:09:41. > :09:45.travel agent for migrants coming he says, putting them further to

:09:46. > :09:49.richer, Northern Europe. Germany says it's very angry about those

:09:50. > :09:53.northern border closes. Chancellor Merkel says Greece cannot be

:09:54. > :09:58.abandoned to plunge into chaos. Her word used to count for a lot in EU

:09:59. > :10:01.circles but now many countries blame her open-door policy for making even

:10:02. > :10:08.worse the mess that you find itself in. Spring is coming and that means

:10:09. > :10:09.more boats. The EU says the only way forward is together but it's 28

:10:10. > :10:15.member countries cannot agree how. The retail sector faces the loss

:10:16. > :10:18.of nearly a million jobs and the closure of thousands

:10:19. > :10:20.of shops in the next decade, partly because of the rapid

:10:21. > :10:22.growth of online shopping. The British Retail Consortium

:10:23. > :10:26.says rising costs due to the National Living Wage

:10:27. > :10:29.and the new apprenticeship levy Our economics editor Kamal Ahmed has

:10:30. > :10:36.more details. Britain has been accused

:10:37. > :10:38.of being a nation of shopkeepers, Three million people have jobs

:10:39. > :10:44.in the retail sector, the largest private

:10:45. > :10:50.employer in the country. One out of every ten

:10:51. > :10:52.of us works in retail. This shop in Coventry

:10:53. > :10:59.is at the sharp end. Online is getting bigger,

:11:00. > :11:05.discounters are getting bigger. The only way is by

:11:06. > :11:15.reducing staff hours. Today, online giant Amazon sealed

:11:16. > :11:20.a deal with Morrison's The number of jobs in the retail

:11:21. > :11:27.sector could fall by a third, Of the 270,000 shops in the UK

:11:28. > :11:39.today, the report claims up The British Retail Consortium

:11:40. > :11:43.estimates the cost of the new national living wage

:11:44. > :11:46.to the industry of up I met one of Britain's leading

:11:47. > :11:50.retailers and asked him if people understood the possible

:11:51. > :11:54.shocks ahead. Currently, there is a sort

:11:55. > :11:58.of complacency around where, somehow, people are not realising

:11:59. > :12:01.just how significantly the workplace And I think that is dangerous,

:12:02. > :12:08.in fact. Oxford Street, one of the busiest

:12:09. > :12:12.shopping streets in the world. Not too much evidence

:12:13. > :12:14.here of the crisis facing But in other parts of Britain,

:12:15. > :12:20.less affluent parts of Britain, Rising costs, falling prices

:12:21. > :12:27.and reduced profits are a toxic mix. What is striking about this report

:12:28. > :12:32.is how the industry is responding - by increasing the number of people

:12:33. > :12:36.on very low pay. I do believe retail has a problem

:12:37. > :12:41.with low pay. It has been evidence-based that it's

:12:42. > :12:45.part of the low-paying sectors, and that is the very reason we have

:12:46. > :12:48.been campaigning for quality jobs, The changing world of retail could

:12:49. > :12:57.mean better prices for customers. Brutal competition has its

:12:58. > :12:59.advantages. It could mean higher pay for those

:13:00. > :13:02.left in the industry But for hundreds of thousands

:13:03. > :13:05.of shop workers who could lose their jobs, this is

:13:06. > :13:10.a time for concern. The first minister of

:13:11. > :13:12.Scotland, Nicola Sturgeon, has warned David Cameron

:13:13. > :13:17.against fighting what she called a 'miserable, negative

:13:18. > :13:18.and fear-based' referendum campaign. The Scottish Government

:13:19. > :13:21.is in favour of the UK staying in the European Union,

:13:22. > :13:23.and the first minister said Mr Cameron was already counting

:13:24. > :13:25.the cost of 'going negative'. Mr Cameron has rejected claims he's

:13:26. > :13:28.trying to scare people Our Scotland editor

:13:29. > :13:35.Sarah Smith reports. Nicola Sturgeon is probably the UK

:13:36. > :13:38.party leader most enthusiastic In London today she laid out

:13:39. > :13:45.what she thinks is a much more positive case than we've heard

:13:46. > :13:48.from the Prime Minister. Free trade, free

:13:49. > :13:52.movement, environmental protections, employment and social

:13:53. > :13:54.rights, all of these are substantial She fears David Cameron could lose

:13:55. > :14:01.the referendum if he tries The risk to the In

:14:02. > :14:11.campaign is that if it is a miserable, negative,

:14:12. > :14:13.scaremongering campaign then they will turn people

:14:14. > :14:15.off and that is the last thing needed given how narrowly

:14:16. > :14:18.balanced the opinion polls look Many of the arguments we are hearing

:14:19. > :14:29.so far are very reminiscent of the arguments in the No

:14:30. > :14:32.campaign in the Scottish What happened in the Scottish

:14:33. > :14:36.referendum was that that kind of negative campaign saw the No

:14:37. > :14:39.campaign squander a 20 point lead David Cameron could save these

:14:40. > :14:44.tactics won the referendum The point I'm going on to

:14:45. > :14:49.make is the In campaign doesn't have a 20 point

:14:50. > :14:51.lead to squander. For once the Prime Minister

:14:52. > :14:53.and Nicola Sturgeon But she says you will not

:14:54. > :15:03.see them out campaining Today he is warning of up

:15:04. > :15:07.to a decade of uncertainty if the UK What happens for the seven,

:15:08. > :15:10.eight, nine years while we wait to put these

:15:11. > :15:13.arrangements in place? What happens to jobs,

:15:14. > :15:14.what happens to confidence, what happens to

:15:15. > :15:16.people's livelihoods? What happens to businesses

:15:17. > :15:18.thinking about whether to invest here in Britain

:15:19. > :15:21.or go somewhere else? Boris Johnson was touring

:15:22. > :15:23.a bus factory in Northern He's calling the remain

:15:24. > :15:29.campaign Project Fear, trying to spook voters

:15:30. > :15:31.with scare stories. It's time to show the positive side

:15:32. > :15:35.of what Britain can do. We lead the world in

:15:36. > :15:38.all sorts of sectors that nobody dreamt

:15:39. > :15:43.of even ten years ago. And now is the opportunity to get

:15:44. > :15:47.rid of so much of the bureaucracy and the overregulation that's

:15:48. > :15:48.coming from Brussels. We look forward

:15:49. > :15:51.to June's referendum. Nicola Sturgeon says

:15:52. > :15:53.she doesn't want to scare people into staying in the EU,

:15:54. > :15:56.it would be more effective She's hoping to encourage

:15:57. > :15:59.David Cameron to try There's more information

:16:00. > :16:11.and background on the BBC News website including analysis

:16:12. > :16:17.from our Reality Check team on the latest claims

:16:18. > :16:18.and counter-claims - In America it's the last day

:16:19. > :16:27.of campaigning before the busiest single day of the

:16:28. > :16:30.presidential primaries. on the latest claims

:16:31. > :16:40.and counter-claims - On what's called Super Tuesday,

:16:41. > :16:42.voters in 11 states will take part in the process of selecting

:16:43. > :16:44.their party candidates. There's been criticism

:16:45. > :16:46.that the standard of campaigning on the Republican side,

:16:47. > :16:48.where Donald Trump is still the front-runner, has

:16:49. > :16:50.reached an all-time low. But his main rival,

:16:51. > :16:52.Senator Marco Rubio, believes the man he's been

:16:53. > :16:54.calling a 'con-artist' can editor Jon Sopel

:16:55. > :16:59.reports from Georgia. It's also aggressive

:17:00. > :17:06.and uncompromising battle. And if you want some

:17:07. > :17:13.of that in your politics, well, it seems only one

:17:14. > :17:15.person fits the bill. Literally every single driver

:17:16. > :17:18.and mechanic we spoke to had He's going to make

:17:19. > :17:35.America great again. They are equally uncompromising

:17:36. > :17:37.about what they like Everybody is so angry

:17:38. > :17:40.about the Democrats and so angry with the Republicans, that's why

:17:41. > :17:43.he's got the support he's got. He's the "screw you Washington"

:17:44. > :17:45.vote, that's all he is. The one person who could possibly

:17:46. > :17:58.overtake him is the Florida Last Thursday in a TV

:17:59. > :18:01.debate he changed tactics. Clearly calculating that he has

:18:02. > :18:04.to play Donald Trump Something he's continuing

:18:05. > :18:14.to do at his rallies. A guy with the worst spray tan

:18:15. > :18:17.in America is attacking me He should sue whoever

:18:18. > :18:25.did that to his face. And continued that line

:18:26. > :18:27.of attack when I spoke to him Are you confident you can

:18:28. > :18:35.still beat Donald Trump? There is no way the party of Lincoln

:18:36. > :18:40.and Reagan is going to be taken over We are going to do

:18:41. > :18:43.everything we can. I will be in this race

:18:44. > :18:44.as long as it takes. And did Thursday make a difference

:18:45. > :18:47.in the debate? We will find out, but it is just

:18:48. > :18:51.the beginning of the process. He has fooled a number

:18:52. > :18:53.of voters around this country so far into believing

:18:54. > :18:57.he really is what he says he is. We look forward to

:18:58. > :18:58.examining his record and we have confidence

:18:59. > :19:00.about what it will mean. At the end of the day,

:19:01. > :19:03.when this process is finished, Donald Trump will not have the 1,237

:19:04. > :19:06.delegates he needs to win, and I will be in this

:19:07. > :19:09.race as long as it takes to prevent

:19:10. > :19:10.that from happening. The deep South is deeply

:19:11. > :19:13.conservative and the strategy of the Rubio camp

:19:14. > :19:16.is to try to convince people like these that Trump

:19:17. > :19:18.is really a slightly dodgy But the public for

:19:19. > :19:22.the moment doesn't seem This is the tri-state area,

:19:23. > :19:27.Georgia that way, cross the bridge And if you go in that

:19:28. > :19:30.direction you are In all three states

:19:31. > :19:34.according to the latest Yes, there has been a sustained

:19:35. > :19:42.onslaught from Marco Rubio these past few days, but is it

:19:43. > :19:46.too little, too late? Four people have gone

:19:47. > :19:54.on trial at the Old Bailey accused of illegally importing

:19:55. > :19:56.dozens of automatic weapons into the UK - which prosecutors say

:19:57. > :19:59.were capable of 'unleashing carnage The court heard the gang used a boat

:20:00. > :20:03.to smuggle the weapons Prosecutors said the weapons

:20:04. > :20:06.would have been sold into the criminal underworld -

:20:07. > :20:08.as our home affairs correspondent As the defendants were swept

:20:09. > :20:18.into the Old Bailey courthouse the City of London traffic

:20:19. > :20:24.was held up by police. Armed officers stood sentry

:20:25. > :20:27.and security levels in and around On trial three men and a woman

:20:28. > :20:33.accused of smuggling a frightening number of weapons across

:20:34. > :20:39.the Channel into Britain. Among them 22 assault rifles made

:20:40. > :20:43.in the Czech Republic, 25-year-old Harry Shilling

:20:44. > :20:49.on the left is accused of planning the job, helped by his

:20:50. > :20:54.friend, Michael Defraine. The prosecution say they bought this

:20:58. > :21:04.but his partner, Jenny Arthy, is on trial accused

:21:05. > :21:06.of helping him buy The prosecution says he picked up

:21:07. > :21:13.the guns in Boulogne harbour, sailed back across the Channel

:21:14. > :21:16.and up the River Medway into an area Once the guns were in Kent, Dave

:21:17. > :21:25.Payne sent a text to a go-between, a friend of Harry

:21:26. > :21:30.Shilling, "All done". The prosecution say Harry Shilling

:21:31. > :21:32.then emailed Michael Defraine, And then, "We no officially

:21:33. > :21:37.gangsters." The next day the guns

:21:38. > :21:43.were brought ashore. But as the men were unloaded

:21:44. > :21:45.the weapons, they were unaware that they were being filmed

:21:46. > :21:48.by surveillance officers from the National Crime Agency

:21:49. > :21:50.who had based themselves The guns were seized along

:21:51. > :21:58.with a large amount of ammunition. All four people on trial deny

:21:59. > :22:11.the charges against them. 14 men have been convicted

:22:12. > :22:13.of plotting to steal Chinese artefacts and rhino horn -

:22:14. > :22:16.worth up to ?57 million - in a series of raids

:22:17. > :22:18.on museums and auction houses. The biggest was on the Fitzwilliam

:22:19. > :22:21.Museum in Cambridge four years ago. The men will be sentenced

:22:22. > :22:30.at a later date. A significant shortage of NHS

:22:31. > :22:33.doctors and nurses means that more than two-thirds of trusts

:22:34. > :22:35.and health boards - in England, Wales

:22:36. > :22:36.and Northern Ireland - are actively trying to recruit

:22:37. > :22:42.staff from overseas. Figures obtained by the BBC show

:22:43. > :22:45.there are more than 23,000 nursing vacancies in those parts of the NHS

:22:46. > :22:49.- that's 9% of the workforce. And there are 6,000

:22:50. > :22:51.vacancies for doctors - Our health correspondent

:22:52. > :22:57.Dominic Hughes has joined one NHS recruitment team in Manila

:22:58. > :23:03.in the Philippines. A city more than 6,500

:23:04. > :23:11.miles from the UK. And yet almost every week NHS trusts

:23:12. > :23:13.fly halfway around the world Their mission, to find some

:23:14. > :23:18.desperately needed nurses. Pauline is leading a team

:23:19. > :23:23.from rural Lincolnshire. Today we are looking

:23:24. > :23:26.for something like 46. You have to get a good feel for,

:23:27. > :23:29.have they got the right skills and values and give them

:23:30. > :23:31.a chance to get comfortable Around 200 candidates are put

:23:32. > :23:35.through a gruelling series of tests Well, the United Lincolnshire Trust

:23:36. > :23:46.is 200 nurses short and that contributes to a staggering bill

:23:47. > :23:48.of ?2.5 million spent each The charity ward of

:23:49. > :23:59.Manila's biggest hospital. One of the senior nurses here says

:24:00. > :24:02.this is a typically intense training ground for those trying

:24:03. > :24:10.to land jobs in the UK. Handling 25 patients per shift,

:24:11. > :24:14.basically hones more of the skills. Unlike the NHS, the Philippines has

:24:15. > :24:17.a glut of qualified nurses - each year as many as

:24:18. > :24:22.100,000 are trained. But the country can offer less

:24:23. > :24:26.than 40,000 nursing jobs. The reason so many Filipino nurses

:24:27. > :24:29.are willing to swap the vibrant and chaotic streets of Manila

:24:30. > :24:34.for Lincolnshire is poverty. A nurse here may expect to earn

:24:35. > :24:37.around ?135 a month. By getting a job in the UK

:24:38. > :24:40.with the NHS they can increase their salary

:24:41. > :24:45.by ten times at a stroke. One nurse heading to Lincolnshire

:24:46. > :24:48.is 26 year-old Rose. The job she has been offered

:24:49. > :24:51.will change her life and that For Rose, Lincolnshire

:24:52. > :24:58.is a long way from home. I will be leaving my family

:24:59. > :25:09.here and living there Because I really want to help them,

:25:10. > :25:14.I really want to earn money just to help them and give

:25:15. > :25:16.them a better life. We are absolutely delighted

:25:17. > :25:19.to offer 131 of you a job Rose and more than 100 others

:25:20. > :25:23.offered jobs still have to pass tough language and professional

:25:24. > :25:25.exams, and get a visa before they can take up

:25:26. > :25:28.their jobs in the UK. But the recruitment process

:25:29. > :25:30.is also about saving money. Once they work in practice for three

:25:31. > :25:33.months unsupervised, becoming independent practitioners,

:25:34. > :25:37.they will have paid for themselves. While the NHS struggles to train

:25:38. > :25:39.and recruit staff at home, for these Filipino nurses a new life

:25:40. > :25:43.in Lincolnshire awaits. Google's self-driving car has

:25:44. > :25:55.hit a bus in a minor It's believed to be the first case

:25:56. > :26:02.of one of the company's autonomous Our Technology Correspondent Rory

:26:03. > :26:17.Cellan-Jones is here. We know that in previous incidents

:26:18. > :26:24.other cars have driven into Google's car. This is the first time the

:26:25. > :26:27.reverse has happened. This was in Mountain View California, where

:26:28. > :26:31.Google is based. It was in the right hand lane preparing to turn right,

:26:32. > :26:36.where there were sandbags in its way. The car and the driver looked

:26:37. > :26:41.behind them, saw a bus coming up, judged it was going to stop, pulled

:26:42. > :26:46.out. The bus didn't stop, ran into the car, causing minor damage and no

:26:47. > :26:51.injuries. Google says it is now reprogramming the software and from

:26:52. > :26:56.now on our cars will more deeply and that buses and other large vehicles

:26:57. > :27:00.are less likely to yield to us than other vehicles, a lesson perhaps

:27:01. > :27:04.other human drivers have perhaps already learned. Thank you.

:27:05. > :27:06.This year's Oscars shone a bright light -

:27:07. > :27:09.once again - on the lack of ethnic diversity in Hollywood -

:27:10. > :27:10.and certainly among this year's Oscar nominees.

:27:11. > :27:13.All 20 nominees in the best acting or supporting acting

:27:14. > :27:16.It's prompted a lively debate about the reasons -

:27:17. > :27:18.and the kind of response that some say is needed.

:27:19. > :27:20.Let's join our entertainment correspondent Lizo Mzimbo

:27:21. > :27:33.-- on Sunset Boulevard. Yes, the per exemption is that the Academy has

:27:34. > :27:37.been stunned into action. Proposals include losing some more elderly

:27:38. > :27:42.members and doubling the number of ethnic minority voters by the year

:27:43. > :27:48.2020. None of this was in time for last night's ceremony, although it

:27:49. > :27:51.was a night where a number of celebrities highlighted serious

:27:52. > :27:55.subjects, including the host, Chris Rock, on the ongoing diversity row.

:27:56. > :27:58.Serious issues being talked about as much

:27:59. > :28:01.Well, I'm here at the Academy Awards.

:28:02. > :28:05.Otherwise known as the White People's Choice Awards!

:28:06. > :28:11.You realise if they nominated hosts, I wouldn't even get this job!

:28:12. > :28:13.Chris Rock's sometimes savage monologue referenced the present

:28:14. > :28:26.We were too busy being raped and lynched to care

:28:27. > :28:32.As was the winner of Best Actor, Leonardo DiCaprio.

:28:33. > :28:35.I thank you all for this amazing award tonight.

:28:36. > :28:38.Let us not take this planet for granted.

:28:39. > :28:49.His director, on The Revenant, Alejandro Inarritu, also won.

:28:50. > :28:53.His speech was also more substance than show business.

:28:54. > :28:56.Make sure, for once and forever, that the colour of a skin becomes

:28:57. > :29:02.as irrelevant as the length of our hair.

:29:03. > :29:05.To the surprise of a few, Best Film was won by...

:29:06. > :29:09.The Academy honouring the story of the Boston Globe's uncovering

:29:10. > :29:15.Brie Larson was named Best Actress for her performance

:29:16. > :29:18.in the heavyweight abduction drama Room.

:29:19. > :29:20.Thank you to the fans, thank you to the moviegoers,

:29:21. > :29:23.thank you for going to the theatre and seeing our films.

:29:24. > :29:28.British successes included Mark Rylance.

:29:29. > :29:31.The actor, who made his name on the stage, has now added

:29:32. > :29:34.a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for Bridge of Spies to his Olivier

:29:35. > :29:38.How does it feel to have won, Mark?

:29:39. > :29:46.As an actor, to win an Academy Award is something very unusual,

:29:47. > :29:56.Amy, about singer Amy WineHouse, took the best documentary award.

:29:57. > :29:58.It is about showing the world what she was really like.

:29:59. > :30:05.The beautiful girl, funny, intelligent, witty.

:30:06. > :30:09.And multiple Brit and Grammy award winner Sam Smith now has

:30:29. > :30:31.at an Oscars where so many took the opportunity to make a statement

:30:32. > :30:40.to a global audience in the tens of millions.

:30:41. > :30:53.Europe appears to be adopting the Donald Trump solution to border

:30:54. > :30:58.control, building bigger fences to restrict migration. We'll ask if it

:30:59. > :31:00.works and is it really the best Europe can do.
