Tonight at 22.00: | 0:00:13 | 0:00:14 | |
tensions in Cabinet,
as Boris Johnson is rebuked | 0:00:14 | 0:00:16 | |
by the Prime Minister,
for demanding more health spending. | 0:00:16 | 0:00:18 | |
REPORTER: Do you want to be
the Chancellor, Foreign Secretary, | 0:00:18 | 0:00:21 | |
or perhaps Health Secretary? | 0:00:21 | 0:00:22 | |
Mr Johnson was told that Cabinet
discussions should remain private, | 0:00:22 | 0:00:24 | |
as the Chancellor stepped
in to add his case. | 0:00:24 | 0:00:26 | |
Mr Johnson is the Foreign Secretary. | 0:00:26 | 0:00:28 | |
I gave the Health Secretary an extra
£6 billion at the recent Budget | 0:00:28 | 0:00:31 | |
and we'll look at departmental
allocations again at the Spending | 0:00:31 | 0:00:34 | |
Review when that takes place. | 0:00:34 | 0:00:42 | |
But as winter pressures
take their toll, in many hospitals, | 0:00:42 | 0:00:44 | |
the Health Secretary acknowledges
that more money would be welcome. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:49 | |
I don't think any Health Secretary
is ever going to not support | 0:00:49 | 0:00:52 | |
potential extra resources
for his or her department. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:57 | |
We'll have the latest
on the Cabinet divisions, | 0:00:57 | 0:00:59 | |
and we'll be looking at the pressure
on NHS finances in England. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
Also tonight: | 0:01:02 | 0:01:04 | |
Scotland Yard is investigating
a new allegation of sexual assault | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
made against the convicted rapist,
John Worboys. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:11 | |
Rupert Murdoch's plan for a takeover
of Sky has been provisionally | 0:01:11 | 0:01:13 | |
blocked by regulators. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:19 | |
We report from the remote
waters of Antarctica, | 0:01:19 | 0:01:21 | |
where scientists are demanding
protection for the unique | 0:01:21 | 0:01:23 | |
ecosystems they've found. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:30 | |
And the South African jazz musician,
and campaigner against apartheid, | 0:01:30 | 0:01:34 | |
Hugh Masekela, has died
at the age of 78. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:40 | |
And coming up in Sportsday later
in the hour on BBC News: | 0:01:40 | 0:01:43 | |
Manchester City look to reach
Wembley for next month's League Cup | 0:01:43 | 0:01:45 | |
final but it's anothger tough match
against Bristol City. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:52 | |
Good evening. | 0:02:08 | 0:02:11 | |
The Foreign Secretary Boris
Johnson, has been rebuked | 0:02:11 | 0:02:13 | |
by both the Prime Minister
and the Chancellor | 0:02:13 | 0:02:15 | |
after he let it be known
that he wanted substantial | 0:02:15 | 0:02:21 | |
new spending on the NHS in England. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:26 | |
At today's Cabinet meeting,
Theresa May reminded colleagues that | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
discussions should be
held in private. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:29 | |
And the Chancellor pointed
out that he'd already | 0:02:29 | 0:02:31 | |
allocated extra resources
in last year's Budget. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:33 | |
The row underlined concerns among
some Conservative MPs | 0:02:33 | 0:02:36 | |
about the Government's handling
of the winter pressures on the NHS, | 0:02:36 | 0:02:38 | |
as our political editor
Laura Kuenssberg reports. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
She can come out in a wheelchair. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:44 | |
That's our treatment room
anyway, so that's not | 0:02:44 | 0:02:45 | |
going to free up a bed. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:47 | |
Long waits... | 0:02:47 | 0:02:48 | |
This gentleman has just come in. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:50 | |
Long days, another glimpse
of the pressure at the University | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
of North Tees Hospital,
like wards around the country. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:56 | |
We need more beds in the hospital. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
We need more beds for them to go to. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:03 | |
Number Ten knows hospitals,
patients and the public looks | 0:03:03 | 0:03:06 | |
at them for answers. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:09 | |
However unwelcome visitors
making demands really are. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:11 | |
REPORTER: Do you want to be
the Chancellor, Foreign Secretary? | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
He called for more cash at Cabinet
for the health service, | 0:03:14 | 0:03:18 | |
making public before,
what he planned to raise in private. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:21 | |
The Prime Minister and
others, unimpressed. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:25 | |
Inside, Boris Johnson was told off
for letting it be known he had | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
been making such a call. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:29 | |
REPORTER: Foreign Secretary, did
you ask for more money for the NHS? | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
No word after either way, from him. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:38 | |
But other ministers didn't
quite manage to hide | 0:03:38 | 0:03:41 | |
their annoyance at what he'd done. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:43 | |
Did the Foreign Secretary raise
the NHS this morning? | 0:03:43 | 0:03:45 | |
You know as well as I do,
you can't go discussing Cabinet. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:48 | |
The Foreign Secretary has been
discussing the Cabinet. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:50 | |
Clearly, many MPs and the Foreign
Secretary are frustrated that not | 0:03:50 | 0:03:52 | |
enough is being done? | 0:03:52 | 0:03:53 | |
We have record funding
going into the NHS. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:55 | |
We put in extra money
in for the winter pressures. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:58 | |
We've got a really
good story to tell. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:03 | |
The Health Secretary
hurried into a waiting car, | 0:04:03 | 0:04:11 | |
but is not surprisingly
unsympathetic to the idea of more | 0:04:12 | 0:04:15 | |
taxpayers' money. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:16 | |
This has stirred up a lot
of fuss, but don't expect | 0:04:16 | 0:04:18 | |
the Foreign Secretary's
pronouncements to make | 0:04:18 | 0:04:20 | |
much difference soon. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:21 | |
But it's tricky for Number Ten,
not just because he is a loud voice | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
who doesn't always toe the line. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:26 | |
Not just because there
are genuine concerns about how | 0:04:26 | 0:04:29 | |
the health service is coping,
but because there is an anxiety | 0:04:29 | 0:04:32 | |
among some Tory MPs that Number Ten
is short of ideas and short | 0:04:32 | 0:04:35 | |
on ambition too. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:36 | |
Boris is right to speak out. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:37 | |
It's not his brief and people might
be upset about that, | 0:04:37 | 0:04:40 | |
but if people wanted to speak out
like Boris, then | 0:04:40 | 0:04:42 | |
they should have done. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:43 | |
Why the Foreign Secretary is making
this point, is anybody's guess. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:46 | |
But I think Boris has set
out his stall on Brexit, | 0:04:46 | 0:04:49 | |
now he setting out his stall
on the NHS and no doubt | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
we'll see Boris setting
out his stall on a lot of issues. | 0:04:52 | 0:05:00 | |
I think Boris has Bor-exited
himself from Cabinet | 0:05:04 | 0:05:06 | |
collective responsibility. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:11 | |
The man in charge of
the Government's cheque-book | 0:05:11 | 0:05:13 | |
hardly sounds sympathetic. | 0:05:13 | 0:05:14 | |
Mr Johnson is the Foreign Secretary. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:15 | |
I gave the Health Secretary an extra
£6 billion at the recent budget | 0:05:15 | 0:05:18 | |
and we will look at departmental
allocations again at the Spending | 0:05:18 | 0:05:21 | |
Review when that takes place. | 0:05:21 | 0:05:22 | |
Thank you. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:23 | |
Sources suggest the Health Secretary
is not plotting with Mr Johnson, | 0:05:23 | 0:05:26 | |
but perhaps every little helps. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:27 | |
I don't think any Health Secretary
is ever going to not support | 0:05:27 | 0:05:30 | |
potential extra resources
for his or her department. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:38 | |
There was agreement in Cabinet that
money that may come back to the UK | 0:05:40 | 0:05:44 | |
after Brexit should be spent
on priorities like | 0:05:44 | 0:05:46 | |
the health service. | 0:05:46 | 0:05:47 | |
But that is set against Labour's
demand for an extra 5 billion now. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:54 | |
For patients like Blanche,
who we met struggling back | 0:05:54 | 0:05:59 | |
in Stockton, waiting on a trolley,
the NHS often helps them | 0:05:59 | 0:06:02 | |
to a rapid recovery. | 0:06:02 | 0:06:03 | |
Yes, I feel a lot better
now, than I did, yeah. | 0:06:03 | 0:06:06 | |
But for politicians
who oversee the service, | 0:06:06 | 0:06:11 | |
there's rarely a simple case. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:12 | |
Laura Kuennsburg, BBC
News, Westminster. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:15 | |
Ministers insist that there are more
doctors and nurses employed | 0:06:15 | 0:06:17 | |
in the National Health Service
in England than ever before. | 0:06:17 | 0:06:20 | |
And this year spending on England's
NHS will go up by more | 0:06:20 | 0:06:23 | |
than £2 billion. | 0:06:23 | 0:06:24 | |
But at the same time,
as we've been reporting, | 0:06:24 | 0:06:26 | |
there have been unprecedented
demands on the NHS. | 0:06:26 | 0:06:34 | |
Hugh Pym is here to take a closer
look at the numbers. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:39 | |
Well Huw, as always the NHS
debate covers money - | 0:06:39 | 0:06:42 | |
politicians talking
about billions of pounds. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:43 | |
The Chancellor mentioned
£6 billion more in the Budget | 0:06:43 | 0:06:45 | |
for the NHS in England but that's
spread over five years. | 0:06:45 | 0:06:48 | |
There are growing demands now
for radical thinking about health | 0:06:48 | 0:06:51 | |
and social care funding,
trying to work out what's needed | 0:06:51 | 0:06:53 | |
in future decades and how much extra
money taxpayers will have to find. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:56 | |
The workforce is under pressure. | 0:06:56 | 0:07:00 | |
Vacant nursing and midwifery posts
reached a new high of more | 0:07:00 | 0:07:05 | |
than 34,000 in England. | 0:07:05 | 0:07:08 | |
That's added to the debate about
the need for long-term planning. | 0:07:08 | 0:07:11 | |
Some senior figures at Westminster
say only a break from party politics | 0:07:11 | 0:07:14 | |
will allow the right treatment
of the NHS's problems. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:16 | |
We need to take the long view. | 0:07:16 | 0:07:19 | |
Rather than just having these
short-term emergency injections | 0:07:19 | 0:07:23 | |
of cash, let's properly look
at the scale of demand, where that's | 0:07:23 | 0:07:27 | |
coming from and how we meet it,
not just for the next year or two | 0:07:27 | 0:07:31 | |
years, but for the next
ten years and beyond. | 0:07:31 | 0:07:33 | |
So, what is the current
state of the NHS? | 0:07:33 | 0:07:36 | |
Well, it's added more staff,
just over 10,000 more doctors | 0:07:36 | 0:07:38 | |
in England since 2010. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:46 | |
But they've had to cope with a rapid
rise in patient numbers. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:51 | |
There was a 40% increase
in the number of operations carried | 0:07:51 | 0:07:54 | |
out in England over the last decade. | 0:07:54 | 0:07:55 | |
And over that time,
attendances at A&E in England | 0:07:55 | 0:07:57 | |
went up by almost 30%. | 0:07:57 | 0:07:59 | |
Spending across the UK has gone up. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:01 | |
This graph shows
the rise since 1950. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:04 | |
It's now more than
£140 billion a year. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:11 | |
But while the UK spends 9.7%
of its national income on health, | 0:08:11 | 0:08:14 | |
that compares poorly
with other major EU nations. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:19 | |
France, on 11%,
and Germany on 11.3%. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:21 | |
And now NHS leaders say
more money is needed. | 0:08:21 | 0:08:26 | |
The system itself, the way
it is designed, is not yet fit | 0:08:26 | 0:08:31 | |
to deal with the challenges that
are faced by a growing number | 0:08:31 | 0:08:34 | |
of elderly people with a whole
range of conditions. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:38 | |
So we need funding change,
and we also need transformation | 0:08:38 | 0:08:40 | |
of the way in which services
are organised. | 0:08:40 | 0:08:47 | |
That's for the future
but the here and now for NHS | 0:08:47 | 0:08:49 | |
patients and staff is day to day
stress and pressure. | 0:08:49 | 0:08:52 | |
They will feel that however
much debate takes place, | 0:08:52 | 0:08:54 | |
solutions are needed and fast. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:55 | |
Huw. | 0:08:55 | 0:09:00 | |
Many thanks, our health editor
there, Hugh Pym with the latest look | 0:09:00 | 0:09:03 | |
at the figures. | 0:09:03 | 0:09:05 | |
The trial of Darren Osborne,
who's accused of driving a van | 0:09:05 | 0:09:07 | |
into a group of Muslims outside
a mosque in north London, | 0:09:07 | 0:09:10 | |
has heard that he received direct
messages from far-right groups | 0:09:10 | 0:09:12 | |
before the attack. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:13 | |
Osborne denies one charge of murder
and one of attempted murder. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:16 | |
51-year-old Makram Ali was killed
in the incident in June last year, | 0:09:16 | 0:09:18 | |
as our home affairs correspondent
Daniel Sandford reports. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:25 | |
The seconds just before a large
white van, travelling at speed, | 0:09:25 | 0:09:29 | |
smashed into a crowd of Muslim men
marking Ramadan last June. | 0:09:29 | 0:09:33 | |
It was the fourth attack last year
and the first to target Muslims. | 0:09:33 | 0:09:38 | |
The prosecution said that
in the previous fortnight, | 0:09:38 | 0:09:41 | |
the man on trial for the attack,
Darren Osborne, had searched dozens | 0:09:41 | 0:09:44 | |
of times on the Internet
for ultranationalist groups | 0:09:44 | 0:09:47 | |
and stories about terror attacks,
like the Manchester bombing. | 0:09:47 | 0:09:52 | |
The jury heard that in the 15
days before the attack, | 0:09:52 | 0:09:56 | |
Darren Osborne received two direct
communications from | 0:09:56 | 0:09:57 | |
far right leaders. | 0:09:57 | 0:10:00 | |
A direct message on Twitter
from the deputy leader | 0:10:00 | 0:10:03 | |
of Britain First, Jayda Fransen
and a note from Tommy Robinson, | 0:10:03 | 0:10:07 | |
one of the founders
of the English Defence League, | 0:10:07 | 0:10:10 | |
in which he talked about a nation
within a nation forming beneath | 0:10:10 | 0:10:13 | |
the surface in the UK. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:17 | |
A nation based upon
violence and on Islam. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:20 | |
On the morning of the day before
the attack, Osborne had | 0:10:20 | 0:10:22 | |
hired a large box van
from a local rental company. | 0:10:22 | 0:10:26 | |
And that evening, he sat down
in his local pub in Cardiff | 0:10:26 | 0:10:29 | |
with a pen and paper. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:30 | |
The prosecution say that's
when he wrote a note, | 0:10:30 | 0:10:33 | |
later found in the van,
which talks about feral, inbred, | 0:10:33 | 0:10:39 | |
raping Muslim men, hunting in packs. | 0:10:39 | 0:10:42 | |
Callum Spence, a serving
soldier, was in the pub. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:44 | |
He told the jury that
Darren Osborne said to him, | 0:10:44 | 0:10:46 | |
"all our families are going to be
Muslim." | 0:10:46 | 0:10:49 | |
And then, "I'm going to kill
all Muslims, I'm going to take | 0:10:49 | 0:10:52 | |
things into my own hands." | 0:10:52 | 0:10:56 | |
Less than 28 hours later,
the van Darren Osborne hired, | 0:10:56 | 0:10:59 | |
killed Makram Ali and seriously
injured several others. | 0:10:59 | 0:11:02 | |
He denies murder
and attempted murder. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:04 | |
Daniel Sandford, BBC News,
at Woolwich Crown Court. | 0:11:04 | 0:11:11 | |
The Metropolitan Police
is investigating a new allegation | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
of sexual assault, made
against the convicted | 0:11:13 | 0:11:15 | |
rapist, John Worboys. | 0:11:15 | 0:11:18 | |
BBC News understands
that the claim dates back to 1997, | 0:11:18 | 0:11:21 | |
and the alleged victim came forward
in the past few weeks. | 0:11:21 | 0:11:25 | |
Worboys, who was jailed nine years
ago, has been cleared for release | 0:11:25 | 0:11:28 | |
by the Parole Board at the end
of this month. | 0:11:28 | 0:11:30 | |
Our Home Affairs Editor,
Mark Easton, is at Scotland Yard. | 0:11:30 | 0:11:34 | |
Mark, how do this potentially affect
the plans to release John Worboys? | 0:11:34 | 0:11:41 | |
Well, given the huge national outcry
at the Worboys' case I'm sure the | 0:11:41 | 0:11:45 | |
police will be throwing everything
they can at this new investigation. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:48 | |
Still in its early stages, they will
be wanting to put that case together | 0:11:48 | 0:11:57 | |
as quickly as possible and present
it to prosecutor. The Crown | 0:11:57 | 0:12:01 | |
Prosecution Service will still need
to be persuaded that there is a | 0:12:01 | 0:12:04 | |
reasonable chance of conviction and
it is in the public interest to | 0:12:04 | 0:12:09 | |
pursue this through the courts. That
may not be straightforward. This | 0:12:09 | 0:12:14 | |
allegation is from 1997, an
allegation of sexual assault against | 0:12:14 | 0:12:18 | |
John wore biens the prosecutors will
need to be persuaded that it pass | 0:12:18 | 0:12:22 | |
what is they call the evidential
test. This is an allegation that | 0:12:22 | 0:12:31 | |
preceded all those convictions in
2009. The police will pursue this | 0:12:31 | 0:12:35 | |
with vigour and they will want it
charge John Worboys when he is still | 0:12:35 | 0:12:40 | |
in prison, held currently at
Belmarsh near London, at which point | 0:12:40 | 0:12:43 | |
his parole will almost certainly be
rescinded and that will be a huge | 0:12:43 | 0:12:48 | |
relief for many of John war boys'
victims who have expressed extreme | 0:12:48 | 0:12:55 | |
concern about his imminent release
were jail. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:57 | |
Thank you very much. | 0:12:57 | 0:12:59 | |
Rupert Murdoch's planned £11 billion
takeover of Sky has been | 0:12:59 | 0:13:01 | |
provisionally blocked by regulators
because of concerns it would give | 0:13:01 | 0:13:05 | |
Mr Murdoch 'too much control over
news providers in the UK'. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:08 | |
The Competition and Markets
Authority said that 21st | 0:13:08 | 0:13:11 | |
Century Fox's plans were 'not
in the public interest', | 0:13:11 | 0:13:14 | |
but it offered some remedies
to address the concerns - | 0:13:14 | 0:13:16 | |
as our media editor,
Amol Rajan, explains. | 0:13:16 | 0:13:24 | |
For nearly three decades,
Sky has entertained millions | 0:13:24 | 0:13:26 | |
across Europe and through its news
channel, provided a world class | 0:13:26 | 0:13:29 | |
rival to the dominant BBC. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:32 | |
It was the brainchild
of Rupert Murdoch, who was nearly | 0:13:32 | 0:13:40 | |
bankrupted by his mission to provide
British viewers with greater choice. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:43 | |
REPORTER: Mr Murdoch do
you have anything to say | 0:13:43 | 0:13:45 | |
to the victims of phone hacking? | 0:13:45 | 0:13:47 | |
When in 2010-11 he bid for full
control of the broadcaster, | 0:13:47 | 0:13:50 | |
the phone hacking scandal
at his newspapers | 0:13:50 | 0:13:51 | |
scuppered his ambition. | 0:13:51 | 0:13:52 | |
This is the most
humble day of my life. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:54 | |
The News of the World shut,
but Murdoch still owns other leading | 0:13:54 | 0:13:57 | |
titles such as the Times
and The Sun. | 0:13:57 | 0:13:59 | |
Today, however, Parliament heard
that the Competition | 0:13:59 | 0:14:04 | |
and Markets Authority
was provisionally satisfied | 0:14:04 | 0:14:06 | |
with the Murdoch's commitment
to broadcasting standards | 0:14:06 | 0:14:07 | |
but there remain issues
over media plurality. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:12 | |
It has also raised concerns
that the Murdoch family trust | 0:14:12 | 0:14:15 | |
would have increased influence over
public opinion and | 0:14:15 | 0:14:17 | |
the political agenda. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:19 | |
They've basically concluded that
Rupert Murdoch is too | 0:14:19 | 0:14:22 | |
powerful in this country,
he owns too much of our media estate | 0:14:22 | 0:14:26 | |
and if he gets control of 100%
of Sky that will give him | 0:14:26 | 0:14:29 | |
a disproportionate advantage
over his competitors | 0:14:29 | 0:14:31 | |
and he'll wield even more
influence over politicians. | 0:14:31 | 0:14:36 | |
Fox said they are disappointed
by the CMA's provisional findings | 0:14:36 | 0:14:39 | |
but still anticipate regulatory
approval of the transaction | 0:14:39 | 0:14:41 | |
by the end of June. | 0:14:41 | 0:14:45 | |
The Murdochs argue that
since their last bid, | 0:14:45 | 0:14:47 | |
the media industry has
undergone huge disruption. | 0:14:47 | 0:14:52 | |
Digital giants like Netflix
and Amazon have hugely increased | 0:14:52 | 0:14:55 | |
competition in the TV marketplace
while newspapers are under | 0:14:55 | 0:14:57 | |
pressure as never before. | 0:14:57 | 0:15:01 | |
But the curiosity about this story
is that the fate of Sky could be | 0:15:01 | 0:15:05 | |
in the hands of American,
rather than British regulators. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:07 | |
Last year Murdoch shocked
the industry by declaring | 0:15:07 | 0:15:09 | |
he was selling his entertainment
business to the US giant Disney. | 0:15:09 | 0:15:12 | |
That deal is now being scrutinised
under competition grounds in the US. | 0:15:12 | 0:15:16 | |
Maybe Rupert Murdoch
saw this coming. | 0:15:16 | 0:15:18 | |
His decision to sell up to Disney
shows he was willing to part company | 0:15:18 | 0:15:21 | |
with businesses that he'd lost
millions of pounds on. | 0:15:21 | 0:15:23 | |
The issue now is whether or not
Disney is as committed | 0:15:23 | 0:15:27 | |
as the Murdochs were,
not just to Sky but to Sky News, | 0:15:27 | 0:15:30 | |
because if they're not, well,
their media plurality in Britain | 0:15:30 | 0:15:33 | |
will be under threat. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:38 | |
The early signs are that Disney's
boss, Bob Eiger, does see | 0:15:38 | 0:15:40 | |
Sky News as integral to Sky. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:44 | |
But as a loss-making
distraction that doesn't play | 0:15:44 | 0:15:45 | |
to Disney's strengths,
it'll be months before Sky's staff | 0:15:45 | 0:15:48 | |
and audiences have complete
clarity on their future. | 0:15:48 | 0:15:51 | |
Amol Rajan, BBC News. | 0:15:51 | 0:15:55 | |
Scientists have called for some
of the most remote waters | 0:15:55 | 0:15:57 | |
in Antarctica to be given special
protection because they've | 0:15:57 | 0:15:59 | |
discovered unique ecosystems
in the waters of the Weddell Sea. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:07 | |
For much of the year,
the vast area is covered in ice. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:10 | |
Our environment correspondent,
Claire Marshall, has travelled | 0:16:10 | 0:16:12 | |
on a Greenpeace ship
to the Weddell Sea, off | 0:16:12 | 0:16:14 | |
the Antarctic Peninsula. | 0:16:14 | 0:16:16 | |
And she was able to dive
down beneath the surface | 0:16:16 | 0:16:18 | |
in a submarine to see for herself
what the scientists have found. | 0:16:18 | 0:16:21 | |
She sent this exclusive report. | 0:16:21 | 0:16:24 | |
Antarctica, the most remote
continent in the world, | 0:16:24 | 0:16:28 | |
encased in glacial ice thousands
of feet thick. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:31 | |
It's still largely unexplored
and we know even less | 0:16:31 | 0:16:33 | |
about the icy seas that ring it. | 0:16:33 | 0:16:41 | |
Now, machines are making it possible
for us to catch a glimpse. | 0:16:41 | 0:16:48 | |
A mini-submarine is taking marine
biologist Dr Susan Lockhart down | 0:16:48 | 0:16:50 | |
into the Antarctic deep. | 0:16:50 | 0:16:58 | |
Above is a land of frigid ice,
below is a thriving mass of life. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:04 | |
That's really pretty. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:06 | |
No light penetrates this deep. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:10 | |
Plants can't grow,
these are all animals. | 0:17:10 | 0:17:15 | |
Then it was my turn to go
down with pilot John. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:19 | |
We dropped much deeper. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:22 | |
More than 1,000 feet down,
we find a wall of life. | 0:17:22 | 0:17:27 | |
Sponges and corals, sea stars,
feather stars, all thriving | 0:17:27 | 0:17:29 | |
in complete darkness. | 0:17:29 | 0:17:37 | |
A robot arm captures samples. | 0:17:37 | 0:17:40 | |
Some of these species have
never been filmed before. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:43 | |
They're threatened by an increase
in fishing in the region. | 0:17:43 | 0:17:46 | |
Too soon, we have to leave. | 0:17:46 | 0:17:50 | |
So there's a storm apparently
brewing on the surface, | 0:17:50 | 0:17:52 | |
so the ship have asked us
to come up. | 0:17:52 | 0:17:55 | |
22, do you have a visual, over? | 0:17:55 | 0:18:02 | |
We surface very close
to some icebergs. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:06 | |
We might have to nudge some ice out
of the way, as well. | 0:18:06 | 0:18:11 | |
That will be a massive chunk of ice. | 0:18:11 | 0:18:16 | |
At last, the diver gets
a hook on our sub. | 0:18:16 | 0:18:23 | |
But then the crane breaks,
we're stranded for an hour. | 0:18:23 | 0:18:30 | |
It feels good to finally be down. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:36 | |
That's nice. | 0:18:36 | 0:18:38 | |
Yeah, yeah. | 0:18:38 | 0:18:46 | |
We gathered evidence of a unique
ecosystem that deserves protection. | 0:18:47 | 0:18:49 | |
It's really exciting,
a really dense sea bed full | 0:18:49 | 0:18:51 | |
of life and huge diversity. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:53 | |
And also, organisms living together
creating a 3-D structure, | 0:18:53 | 0:18:55 | |
so more organisms can move and these
can be very vulnerable | 0:18:55 | 0:18:58 | |
to disturbance and they need
special protection. | 0:18:58 | 0:19:06 | |
No-one could deny that this
region needs protecting, | 0:19:07 | 0:19:10 | |
but what is the best way to do it? | 0:19:10 | 0:19:12 | |
Is a line on a map really
going to make much difference, | 0:19:12 | 0:19:15 | |
and who is going to police
anything out here? | 0:19:15 | 0:19:19 | |
The proposal to protect all these
creatures and their world will be | 0:19:19 | 0:19:22 | |
heard by the Antarctic
nations in October. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:25 | |
Claire Marshall, BBC News,
the Antarctic Peninsula. | 0:19:25 | 0:19:28 | |
A brief look at some
of the day's other news stories: | 0:19:31 | 0:19:34 | |
The Ministry of Defence has regained
control of a defence review | 0:19:34 | 0:19:37 | |
that was expected to have proposed
major cuts for the Armed Forces. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:40 | |
It's being seen as a significant
move and a political victory | 0:19:40 | 0:19:42 | |
for the Defence Secretary,
Gavin Williamson. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:47 | |
The White House has announced
the first state visit to the US | 0:19:47 | 0:19:50 | |
since Donald Trump became President. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:53 | |
The guest - in April -
will be the French President, | 0:19:53 | 0:19:56 | |
Emmanuel Macron. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:57 | |
It will include the first
formal dinner hosted | 0:19:57 | 0:19:59 | |
by President Trump and the First
Lady. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:03 | |
Labour's main decision-making body,
the National Executive Committee, | 0:20:03 | 0:20:04 | |
has met for the first time
since three new members - | 0:20:04 | 0:20:07 | |
all from the grassroots group
Momentum - were elected. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:11 | |
Momentum's founder, Jon Lansman,
described his election to the NEC | 0:20:11 | 0:20:14 | |
earlier this month as a victory
for '21st-Century socialism'. | 0:20:14 | 0:20:19 | |
Phil Neville has been
appointed Head Coach | 0:20:19 | 0:20:21 | |
of England Women's football team. | 0:20:21 | 0:20:23 | |
The former Manchester United
and Everton star takes over | 0:20:23 | 0:20:25 | |
from interim manager Mo Marley,
who has been in charge | 0:20:25 | 0:20:28 | |
since former boss Mark Sampson's
sacking in September. | 0:20:28 | 0:20:36 | |
The Norwegian Prime Minister,
Erna Solberg, has told the BBC | 0:20:36 | 0:20:39 | |
that the UK should push
for a so-called soft Brexit. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:42 | |
Speaking at the World Economic Forum
in Davos, she said the UK | 0:20:42 | 0:20:48 | |
was unlikely to get a better deal
than Norway - which is not a member | 0:20:48 | 0:20:52 | |
of the EU, but is part
of the European Economic Area. | 0:20:52 | 0:20:54 | |
Ms Solberg was talking
to our economics editor, | 0:20:54 | 0:20:56 | |
Kamal Ahmed, who's in Davos. | 0:20:56 | 0:21:02 | |
Thanks very much. The Prime Minister
of Norway said she was offering this | 0:21:03 | 0:21:09 | |
advice as a friend, from a country
that was very keen to have closer | 0:21:09 | 0:21:15 | |
economic ties both with the European
Union and with Britain. But she was | 0:21:15 | 0:21:20 | |
certainly very clear when I caught
up with her earlier today about what | 0:21:20 | 0:21:23 | |
that advice entailed. | 0:21:23 | 0:21:25 | |
up with her earlier today
about what that advice entailed. | 0:21:25 | 0:21:27 | |
We hope that there will be
an agreement that we will call | 0:21:27 | 0:21:30 | |
a soft Brexit, an agreement that
will not put large barriers | 0:21:30 | 0:21:33 | |
for the trade inside Europe again. | 0:21:33 | 0:21:35 | |
That we hope they will
find a good solution. | 0:21:35 | 0:21:38 | |
And we are both working
well with the British | 0:21:38 | 0:21:40 | |
and with the EU on that. | 0:21:40 | 0:21:42 | |
And the EU areunderstanding
that we are integrated | 0:21:42 | 0:21:44 | |
in the Single Market. | 0:21:44 | 0:21:46 | |
There are three countries outside
the EU who are following all | 0:21:46 | 0:21:48 | |
of the internal regulations
on the Single Market. | 0:21:48 | 0:21:50 | |
And Norway, of course,
has a very large trade | 0:21:50 | 0:21:52 | |
and activity towards Britain. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:59 | |
The Norwegian Prime Minister. Now,
tomorrow will be Europe Day. Count | 0:21:59 | 0:22:06 | |
them, the number of European leaders
arriving here at the World Economic | 0:22:06 | 0:22:11 | |
Forum, six in total. I have been
coming here nearly ten years and I | 0:22:11 | 0:22:14 | |
have not seen so many in one day.
The leaders of Germany, France, | 0:22:14 | 0:22:19 | |
Italy, Poland, Sweden and Greece
will arrive at the World Economic | 0:22:19 | 0:22:25 | |
Forum. I think they will talk about
globalisation and they will say | 0:22:25 | 0:22:28 | |
Europe is open for business.
Something of a riposte, I think, to | 0:22:28 | 0:22:32 | |
that big arrival on Friday,
President Trump, who talks about | 0:22:32 | 0:22:38 | |
protectionism. Leaders tomorrow in
Europe, I am sure they will touch on | 0:22:38 | 0:22:43 | |
Brexit, but their big message is,
free trade is good for global growth | 0:22:43 | 0:22:47 | |
and Europe wants to beat at the
heart of that debate. | 0:22:47 | 0:22:50 | |
We will catch up again tomorrow,
thank you very much, from Davos. | 0:22:50 | 0:22:56 | |
One of South Africa's
most famous musicians, | 0:22:56 | 0:22:58 | |
the jazz trumpeter Hugh Masekela,
has died at the age of 78. | 0:22:58 | 0:23:03 | |
He fled the country in 1960
and became a prominent campaigner | 0:23:03 | 0:23:05 | |
against the system of white-minority
rule, known as apartheid. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:09 | |
His song Bring Him Back Home -
calling for the release | 0:23:09 | 0:23:11 | |
of Nelson Mandela from prison -
became an international anthem | 0:23:11 | 0:23:14 | |
for the anti-apartheid movement. | 0:23:14 | 0:23:18 | |
Today, President Zuma said
Hugh Masekela had 'kept | 0:23:18 | 0:23:20 | |
the torch of freedom alive',
as Pumza Fihlani reports | 0:23:20 | 0:23:22 | |
from South Africa. | 0:23:22 | 0:23:28 | |
The trumpet has finally fallen. | 0:23:34 | 0:23:36 | |
The passing of Hugh Masekela has
shocked many across the country | 0:23:36 | 0:23:38 | |
and around the world. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:40 | |
Bra Hugh, as he was affectionately
known, has been described | 0:23:40 | 0:23:42 | |
as 'the epitome of a life
lived in full'. | 0:23:42 | 0:23:50 | |
A family man, a world-renowned
artist, and a philanthropist. The | 0:23:53 | 0:23:59 | |
78-year-old was diagnosed with
prostate cancer and had put up a | 0:23:59 | 0:24:03 | |
fierce fight but last October, he
was forced to cancel all his | 0:24:03 | 0:24:07 | |
concerts and focus on his help. | 0:24:07 | 0:24:11 | |
Fellow musician and friend
Yvonne Chaka Chaka says Africa has | 0:24:11 | 0:24:13 | |
lost its greatest treasure. | 0:24:13 | 0:24:14 | |
I think Uncle Hugh
was a living legend. | 0:24:14 | 0:24:18 | |
He may be gone, but his music
will always be there. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:21 | |
The world has lost a great icon. | 0:24:21 | 0:24:28 | |
The world has lost a leader. | 0:24:28 | 0:24:29 | |
The world has lost a comedian,
because he was hilarious. | 0:24:29 | 0:24:36 | |
Where there was Uncle Hugh, there
was just laughter all the time. | 0:24:36 | 0:24:39 | |
And, erm, I don't know what to say. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:41 | |
I'm just heartbroken,
I'm upset, but I'll remember | 0:24:41 | 0:24:43 | |
all the good things that he did. | 0:24:43 | 0:24:50 | |
Whether you were younger, you are a
diplomat, a King, a leader or a | 0:24:50 | 0:24:53 | |
street person, you all equal in his
face and he would greet everybody | 0:24:53 | 0:24:59 | |
and talk to everybody. I lived in
Liberia, in Senegal. At the height | 0:24:59 | 0:25:06 | |
of white oppression in South Africa,
for many black musicians, jazz | 0:25:06 | 0:25:12 | |
became the soundtrack of the
resistance. Masekela was forced into | 0:25:12 | 0:25:14 | |
exile as political and racial
tensions increased, but once he | 0:25:14 | 0:25:19 | |
returned, he was determined to make
a difference. I need to pay back and | 0:25:19 | 0:25:26 | |
the only way to pay back, I think,
is by making the people see how | 0:25:26 | 0:25:30 | |
wonderful they are and how excellent
they are. He described himself as a | 0:25:30 | 0:25:36 | |
troublesome child and spoke openly
about the many times music saved his | 0:25:36 | 0:25:41 | |
life, even later at the height of a
drug addiction. This picture marked | 0:25:41 | 0:25:45 | |
one of the moment it began when a
missionary Father Trevor Huddleston | 0:25:45 | 0:25:50 | |
gave him his first trumpet and with
that, the music legend was born. He | 0:25:50 | 0:25:55 | |
was an unlikely ally at the height
of racial oppression here in South | 0:25:55 | 0:25:59 | |
Africa. Masekela continued to use as
voice over the years to speak truth | 0:25:59 | 0:26:03 | |
to power. | 0:26:03 | 0:26:08 | |
The musician and campaigner
Hugh Masekela, who's | 0:26:08 | 0:26:10 | |
died at the age of 78. | 0:26:10 | 0:26:15 | |
Tennis, and Britain's Kyle Edmund
has made spectacular progress | 0:26:15 | 0:26:18 | |
at the Australian Open,
to reach his first | 0:26:18 | 0:26:20 | |
Grand Slam semi-final. | 0:26:20 | 0:26:23 | |
The World Number 49 beat the third
seed, Grigor Dimitrov, | 0:26:23 | 0:26:25 | |
making him only the sixth British
man to reach the last four | 0:26:25 | 0:26:28 | |
at a Grand Slam for half a century,
as Joe Wilson reports. | 0:26:28 | 0:26:36 | |
This is potential realised. | 0:26:36 | 0:26:37 | |
This is hope made reality. | 0:26:37 | 0:26:39 | |
This is Kyle Edmund, in Melbourne. | 0:26:39 | 0:26:40 | |
A big first serve delivers! | 0:26:40 | 0:26:43 | |
His opponent in the quarterfinal,
Grigor Dimitrov, has been the next | 0:26:43 | 0:26:45 | |
big thing in men's tennis for years
and he fought back | 0:26:45 | 0:26:48 | |
to win the second set. | 0:26:48 | 0:26:49 | |
Closes it out at the
first time of asking. | 0:26:49 | 0:26:52 | |
But Edmund won the third and found
himself on the brink. | 0:26:52 | 0:26:57 | |
Edmund's always had power,
but now he has the composure to see | 0:26:57 | 0:27:01 | |
things through when it gets close -
and this was pretty close. | 0:27:01 | 0:27:03 | |
He's done it! | 0:27:03 | 0:27:05 | |
Hang on, wait and see! | 0:27:05 | 0:27:08 | |
Match point decided
by a Hawk-Eye replay. | 0:27:08 | 0:27:11 | |
As Andy Murray described
it on Twitter, "Wow!". | 0:27:11 | 0:27:13 | |
I know what it feels
like to be Andy Murray | 0:27:13 | 0:27:16 | |
for the last eight years,
or however long! | 0:27:16 | 0:27:18 | |
LAUGHTER. | 0:27:18 | 0:27:19 | |
When you're on these type of stages,
you know, you're reaching the last | 0:27:19 | 0:27:23 | |
stages of the best tournament
in the world, it's obviously very | 0:27:23 | 0:27:25 | |
pleasing but, of course,
I want to keep going. | 0:27:25 | 0:27:28 | |
Kyle Edmund may have peaked
on the other side of the world, | 0:27:28 | 0:27:30 | |
but he was made right
here in Yorkshire. | 0:27:30 | 0:27:36 | |
As an eight year old,
you may just have spotted him | 0:27:36 | 0:27:38 | |
on one of these courts. | 0:27:38 | 0:27:41 | |
And it's here in Beverley
where you'll find a man | 0:27:41 | 0:27:43 | |
who was hitting against Kyle Edmund
as a boy. | 0:27:43 | 0:27:45 | |
He's always had the ability. | 0:27:45 | 0:27:48 | |
I mean, last year, he always seemed
to come off second-best really | 0:27:48 | 0:27:52 | |
in tight matches. | 0:27:52 | 0:28:00 | |
Possibly down to the mental side,
which is, the biggest thing I've | 0:28:00 | 0:28:02 | |
been impressed with him,
his mental side of it and how he's | 0:28:02 | 0:28:05 | |
applied himself on court. | 0:28:05 | 0:28:06 | |
Is this success going to change him? | 0:28:06 | 0:28:08 | |
Er, no, absolutely not. | 0:28:08 | 0:28:09 | |
He's very grounded,
very level-headed. | 0:28:09 | 0:28:10 | |
He's quite a shy character. | 0:28:10 | 0:28:11 | |
As a Junior, Kyle Edmund came
through the British system. | 0:28:11 | 0:28:14 | |
He's worked hard on his
physique recently. | 0:28:14 | 0:28:15 | |
Edmund lifted the Davis Cup in 2015,
although the Murray brothers won | 0:28:15 | 0:28:18 | |
Britain's matches in the final. | 0:28:18 | 0:28:19 | |
Between tournaments,
you may find Kyle Edmund | 0:28:19 | 0:28:21 | |
in the Bahamas these days,
but the new star is | 0:28:21 | 0:28:24 | |
from Beverley's hills. | 0:28:24 | 0:28:25 | |
Joe Wilson, BBC News, in Yorkshire. | 0:28:25 | 0:28:30 | |
In Los Angeles, the Oscar
nominations have been announced, | 0:28:30 | 0:28:32 | |
and leading the field -
with 13 nominations - | 0:28:32 | 0:28:37 | |
is the fantasy romance
The Shape of Water, | 0:28:37 | 0:28:39 | |
starring the British
actress Sally Hawkins. | 0:28:39 | 0:28:40 | |
The Best Actor category is dominated
by British performers - | 0:28:40 | 0:28:43 | |
with Gary Oldman, Daniel Day-Lewis
and Daniel Kaluuya all nominated. | 0:28:43 | 0:28:48 | |
And Meryl Streep, who already has
three Oscars to her name, | 0:28:48 | 0:28:51 | |
has been nominated for the 21st time
in her career - as our arts editor, | 0:28:51 | 0:28:54 | |
Will Gompertz, tells us. | 0:28:54 | 0:29:02 | |
Guillermo del Toro's amphibian
fantasy love story The Shape | 0:29:04 | 0:29:05 | |
of Water leads the way,
with 13 Oscar nominations, | 0:29:05 | 0:29:08 | |
including Best Picture. | 0:29:08 | 0:29:09 | |
This is the most sensitive asset
ever to be housed in this facility. | 0:29:09 | 0:29:12 | |
So, Mildred Hayes, why did you put
up these billboards? | 0:29:12 | 0:29:14 | |
A category which also sees
the critically acclaimed | 0:29:14 | 0:29:16 | |
dark comedy thriller
Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, | 0:29:16 | 0:29:18 | |
Missouri nominated. | 0:29:18 | 0:29:19 | |
..Saw an actual crime. | 0:29:19 | 0:29:20 | |
I want to go where culture is... | 0:29:20 | 0:29:22 | |
As well as the coming-of-age
drama Lady Bird. | 0:29:22 | 0:29:27 | |
Well, writers live in the woods... | 0:29:27 | 0:29:29 | |
Good to see an old
brother around here. | 0:29:29 | 0:29:31 | |
Also short-listed is
the horror mystery Get Out. | 0:29:31 | 0:29:33 | |
Ah, yes. | 0:29:33 | 0:29:34 | |
And a couple of British
World War II films. | 0:29:34 | 0:29:36 | |
Christopher Nolan's Dunkirk. | 0:29:36 | 0:29:40 | |
When will the lesson be learned?! | 0:29:40 | 0:29:42 | |
And Joe Wright's the Darkest Hour,
which sees Winston Churchill | 0:29:42 | 0:29:44 | |
struggling in his early days
as Britain's wartime Prime Minister. | 0:29:44 | 0:29:49 | |
When your head is in its mouth! | 0:29:49 | 0:29:51 | |
Several of the scenes
in the Darkest Hour were shot | 0:29:51 | 0:29:54 | |
in a replica of this place,
the Churchill War Rooms | 0:29:54 | 0:29:57 | |
in Westminster, where I am
joined by Terri White, | 0:29:57 | 0:30:00 | |
Editor-in-Chief of the
film magazine Empire. | 0:30:00 | 0:30:01 | |
Terri, welcome. | 0:30:01 | 0:30:02 | |
Thank you. | 0:30:02 | 0:30:04 | |
We're going to go through
the runners and riders, | 0:30:04 | 0:30:07 | |
starting with Best Film. | 0:30:07 | 0:30:10 | |
Will Darkest Hour win? | 0:30:10 | 0:30:11 | |
I actually don't think it will. | 0:30:11 | 0:30:13 | |
I think we're looking
at a win for Shape of Water, | 0:30:13 | 0:30:15 | |
the Guillermo del Toro fantasy film. | 0:30:15 | 0:30:17 | |
But actually, the film I think
should win is Get Out. | 0:30:17 | 0:30:19 | |
Which has a British rising star,
Daniel Kaluuya, in the lead role. | 0:30:19 | 0:30:22 | |
He gets a Best Actor nomination. | 0:30:22 | 0:30:23 | |
I'm certain I was never
meant to marry... | 0:30:23 | 0:30:26 | |
Along with Daniel Day-Lewis,
for Phantom Thread, | 0:30:26 | 0:30:31 | |
Timothee Chalamet for
Call Me By Your Name... | 0:30:31 | 0:30:33 | |
I'm tired of doing the impossible
for the ungrateful... | 0:30:33 | 0:30:36 | |
Denzel Washington for Roman J.
Israel, Esq. | 0:30:36 | 0:30:39 | |
Really, yes, sir! | 0:30:39 | 0:30:42 | |
And Gary Oldman,
for the Darkest Hour. | 0:30:42 | 0:30:43 | |
I sit in this chair! | 0:30:43 | 0:30:45 | |
Well, Terri, that's quite
a list for the Best Actor | 0:30:45 | 0:30:47 | |
and quite a lot of stories. | 0:30:47 | 0:30:50 | |
Will Daniel Day-Lewis
win yet another Oscar, | 0:30:50 | 0:30:52 | |
in what will be his last film? | 0:30:52 | 0:30:53 | |
Will Gary Oldman win
for Churchill, for Darkest Hour, | 0:30:53 | 0:30:55 | |
in the Cabinet War Rooms? | 0:30:55 | 0:30:57 | |
Or will it be somebody else? | 0:30:57 | 0:30:58 | |
I think this is Gary Oldman's year. | 0:30:58 | 0:31:00 | |
How he's never won
an Oscar is beyond me. | 0:31:00 | 0:31:02 | |
And Darkest Hour feels
like his finest moment. | 0:31:02 | 0:31:04 | |
The Best Actress category
is going to be really competitive. | 0:31:04 | 0:31:06 | |
So, who will win? | 0:31:06 | 0:31:07 | |
Sally Hawkins, for
The Shape of Water? | 0:31:07 | 0:31:10 | |
Or Frances McDormand,
for Three Billboards | 0:31:10 | 0:31:12 | |
Outside Ebbing, Missouri? | 0:31:12 | 0:31:14 | |
Maybe Margot Robbie, for I, Tonya. | 0:31:14 | 0:31:17 | |
Or Saoirse Ronan, for Lady Bird. | 0:31:17 | 0:31:20 | |
Or even perhaps Meryl
Streep, for The Post. | 0:31:20 | 0:31:22 | |
The position that would put me in... | 0:31:22 | 0:31:28 | |
Again, that's a really great list. | 0:31:28 | 0:31:34 | |
Are you going to say we're
going to get another British win - | 0:31:34 | 0:31:37 | |
Sally Hawkins, in The Shape
of Water, or maybe Meryl Streep? | 0:31:37 | 0:31:40 | |
No way. | 0:31:40 | 0:31:41 | |
This year, it's all
about Frances McDormand | 0:31:41 | 0:31:42 | |
in Three Billboards Outside Ebbing,
Missouri. | 0:31:42 | 0:31:44 | |
One of the great dramatic
performances of the year. | 0:31:44 | 0:31:46 | |
Let's start up a database. | 0:31:46 | 0:31:47 | |
Every baby that was
born, stick 'em on it. | 0:31:47 | 0:31:49 | |
I suspect she's right. | 0:31:49 | 0:31:50 | |
We'll find out on the 4th of March,
when the Oscars are awarded, | 0:31:50 | 0:31:53 | |
and possibly make history... | 0:31:53 | 0:31:54 | |
You just come back! | 0:31:54 | 0:31:55 | |
..if Rachel Morrison wins
for her filming work on Mudbound, | 0:31:55 | 0:31:58 | |
and becomes the first woman ever
to win the Cinematography category. | 0:31:58 | 0:32:00 | |
