Sarah is here in half an hour. -- will fare.

Welcome back. The top story. An inquest into the murder of former

Russian spy Alexander Litvinenko says Vladimir Putin probably

approved his killing. I am of course very pleased that the words my

husband spoke on his deathbed, when he accused Mr Putin of his murder,

have been proved. Russia has called the report a provocation and warned

it will affect its relationship with Britain. We will talk about a

request from some of the biggest pharmaceutical companies in the

world, to governments to pay them to research new antibiotics. We explain

the arguments behind the request. We will be in Washington to discuss in

sport the first ever full-time female coach in the NFL.

Just in case you are just joining us, let's reiterate the lead story,

the public enquiry in the UK has found that the murder of the former

Russian spy Alexander Litvinenko was probably approved by Vladimir Putin.

Here in the UK there has been outrage at its findings but also

questions about the UK Government's response, this is the Shadow Home

Secretary. One of the more senior figures of the opposition, he said

it was an act of state sanctioned terrorism, an attack on London and

sanctioned at the very highest levels of the Russian government.

That is the opposition view, here is David Cameron commenting on the

findings. Hill what happened was absolutely appalling and this report

confirms what we have always believed on what the last Labour

government believed. The time of this dreadful murder, it was

state-sponsored action and that is why the last government took the

action, expelling Russian diplomats and issuing arrest warrants and

refusing to cooperate with Russian intelligence agencies. Those

measures continue. What we have added today is further asset

freezes, writing again to the prosecuting authorities to see what

more can be done. David Cameron there. We have been following this

story all day. Ministers have been mocked by

opposition MPs and some on their own side saying that President Putin was

not that be quaking in his boots at the idea that the Russian ambassador

to London would be brought into the Foreign Office and given a bit of a

ticking off. Others were even more outspoken, saying that the reaction

of the government was equivalent to appeasement, they likened it to the

appeasement of Hitler in the 1930s and what they are saying is that by

not being tough enough and looking weak, they are not sending out the

right signal to Russia, they said it says to President Putin he can get

away with what he wants, whether it is going into Ukraine and all the

other things that have happened which have brought about frosty

relationships between the UK and Russia they say all this is doing is

showing that he carry on as he has before and none of this will make

any difference. The main opposition here saying it was time to rethink

our entire relationship with Russia and they said looking at the World

Cup is held in 2018, people should start saying that Russia should not

hold that tournament. It is all but a well mocking the government has

announced today but I'm struggling to think of anything the UK

Government could do to have a demure putting quaking in his boots. He

oversaw the annexation of crime, nothing the UK does will worry him.

A lament David Cameron understands that reality, looking back to the

time this murder happened, at that point there was a Labour government

and they expelled some diplomats, they took other measures, today we

know that the two main suspect in this case had their assets frozen.

David Cameron admitting that the UK has to have a relationship with

Russia, he said they will have the relationship with clear eyes and a

very cold heart. They know that in reality when it comes to issues such

as dealing with so-called Islamic State in Syria, they are looking to

Russia for help with that, other suggestions that it was time to go

to the UN Security Council on this and they said it is no point in

doing that because Russia is a permanent member. We will continue

to have very frosty relations with Russia at the will not be frozen out

altogether. For the complete background on the

Litvinenko case, you can go to the BBC News website.

Lets start with tennis, the Australian open continues but

unfortunately Lleyton Hewitt's Korea does not, he lost a David Ferrer in

the second round and that was that, he said it would be his last

tournament. -- Lleyton Hewitt's career.

He has had a strange career because for the last ten years it has been a

slow decline, his best years came early? That is definitely fair to

say. He has been around for so long, it is hard to believe he is only 34.

He gives so much every time he plays, gives his all and his body

has suffered as a consequence and that is why he is retiring, as body

cannot take it any more. Let's run through some of his achievements. In

1997, when he was 15 and qualified for the Australian open, the

youngest qualifier in tournament history and begin the youngest ever

world number one aged just 20 and nine months in 2001. He won two

grand slams, the US Open in 2001 and Wimbledon champion in 2002 and he

has won the Davis Cup twice with Australia, beating Spain in 2003 and

France in 1999. When he came off court after playing David Ferrer

today, he was very emotional. He got his children on the court. He said

his best moments were going for Australia and he embodied what

Australia's love about sport, ferocious, nothing was ever a lost

cause and some of the big names in tennis have paid tribute to his

career. Roger Federer said thank you for everything you have done for

tennis and Rafa Nadal says your love or passion for the sport as a great

inspiration. We haven't seen the last of him, he is playing with Sam

Groth in the doubles and he will be captaining the Davis Cup team, so we

will stay till see Lleyton Hewitt in tennis environment. The play starts

in three hours? Tomorrow we will see Maria Sharapova.

Roger Federer is the four time champion. Interesting game against

Grigor Dimitrov who was once called baby Federer but has not yet

fulfilled the potential. Roger Federer is in line for his 300 grand

slam win, if he does that he will be the first man in history to achieve

the feat. And incredibly raucous Australian

Open atmosphere, Nick Kyrgios against Tomas Berdych.

We will turn to a story which we do every year but it remains

interesting, all about the wealthiest football clubs in the

world. For the 11th time in a row, Real Madrid are right at the top,

this is according to Deloitte's football money league. Usual

suspects in there. If you combine the revenues of the

top 20 it comes to this. That is a new record, to state the

obvious and worth saying that this is just looking at revenues, not

factoring in club that is, if you did that you might get a different

list. This is the website for you can find

all of the details. Let me play you a clip from one of the people who

wrote this. It shows the importance of being in

the Premier League. Of the top 30 clubs, 17 of them are in the Premier

League, the Premier League has strength and depth like no other

league because of the huge broadcasting deals and a very even

with the money is distributed. You want to be in the Premier League.

You then want to be in the Champions League calls that is a big

incremental boost for clubs outside of England that is crucial to get

onto this list. In this year's list we have Roma among the biggest

movers, gone up from 24th to 16th and West Ham coming in at number 20

having been in last time eight years ago. They have been successful and

if you look further down the list, showing the strength of the Premier

League, you have clubs like Swansea 's, Crystal Palace, Stoke City,

Leicester in the 21-30 bracket head of teams like Benfica are Lazio are

Ajax, big European teams. You can get the full story online.

From the NFL, the first full-time female coach has been appointed,

Catherine Smith will work for the Buffalo Bills, the team's Connor

Let's go to Washington and speak to things quite so in his stride.

Let's go to Washington and speak to Kate Bailey. The role that she is

taking on, where does it fit into the pecking order of the club, how

senior is a? She is something called the special teams quality-control

coach, special teams are just that those who come on the field during

the kicking control is an analytics position.

They are watching the video, breaking down stats and talking to

more senior level coaches about what play is bound to work in what

situation at what time. It is a pretty junior level position but one

from which a lot of head coaches have risen through the ranks. Would

you agree with the Buffalo Bills player that it is a big deal? It is

a big deal, there have been women in senior level positions at the NFL

for a while but mostly at front of house. Your VP of marketing, head of

legal Counsel, this is the first tender has been a on the coaching

side. That is a big deal especially since the NFL has been having what

some people say is a problem with women and female fans. It has got a

lot of attention about it Rooney rule to promote African American

coaches, does it have anything equivalent to promote women? It

doesn't and we are seeing woman trickling, there are a lot of NFL

female fans but they have been neglected by the league because

there had been domestic abuse scandals, stories of players

treating woman truly getting a slap on the rest and things about player

safety and how woman are treated throughout the organisation. This

woman Catherine Smith has and her position, she has been working her

way up through the ranks for 13 years, it is something that a lot of

women who like the NFL are really happy to see us it has been a rough

year for female NFL fans. Can you put this in a sporting context, what

kind of a challenge has she got, how are they going? They have some of

the rowdiest and most colourful fans in the NFL. I think she is

well-suited and it will be a great year and eager to see what she

brings to the team. Thank you for coming on.

I am here in the BBC London newsroom and in a few minutes time we will be

talking about this story, it is about antibiotics and why some of

the biggest pharmaceutical companies in the world are asking governments

to pay to help them develop new antibiotics. We will run through how

they are trying to make that argument.

In 2013 the fossilised bones of the biggest dinosaur ever known were

found in South America. Most of David Attenborough is to bring the

story to BBC One in a new documentary in Bottas next Sunday.

The story started when a shepherd in Argentina spotted the tip of a huge

bone sticking out of a rock and turned out to be a 2.5 metre long

FEMA, the largest of its type ever found. Sir David spoke to Hugh

Edwards about the excitement of the discovery. The bone is not

assembled, so you find one here and won their and the bones are so big,

a third of a tonne, just excavating one single backbone takes a long

time. I got there when they got about two thirds of the stuff out, a

bit more than that, enough anyway to establish that first of all it is a

new species altogether, which is quite difficult to prove just from a

couple of bones. Secondly, that it was of this huge dimension. We were

there just at the time when that knowledge was coming and it was

exciting. How has it changed people's understanding of these

creatures in the sense it is not just a matter size, and matter of

what habitat and way of life? It raises more questions than it

produces answers. How did this thing lumber about, why was it so big?

What exactly did it feed on and these kind of questions. What we go

into indie film. The thing that interested me particularly was this

confidence statement about how much it weighed, 74 tonnes and you think

how on earth can you tell that. The thighbone, which was the big one

that was first discovered, you know what it's circumference is and you

know the strength of the bone. You can say that because that bone could

carry some weight tonnes and nature doesn't produce more than it needs,

so if it couldn't carry something it almost certainly did -- if it could

carry something it most certainly did. That figure is 74 tonnes.

Our lead story is that an enquiry in Britain has found that President

Putin probably approved the murder in London of the former Russian spy

Alexander Litvinenko. Russia has dismissed the enquiry as biased. Let

me tell you what we have got coming up, world news in America next, and

massive blizzard isn't to hit Washington on Friday, over half a

metre of snow is expected on the programme will report on that for

the whole city. The News at ten is next year in the UK, it is got a

report on the UK's Trident nuclear deterrent. The system is up for

renewal and it Defence Secretary said it has never been needed more

than it is today. We turn to Tunisia because they have

been violent confrontations between protesters and police, it is all

about jobs and development. The protest began when a young man was

electrocuted after climbing a utility pole, he had threatened to

commit suicide after a job prospects in the public sector was dismissed.

This all happened where a curfew is currently in place.

The protesters are starting to gather and it is just one hour

before the curfew comes into effect and every night this week they have

been defying it again and again and they want the government to some of

the changes they have been waiting for for many years, they feel they

have left it and it is a lot of anger and a plume of smoke used

either as a mix of burning tyres by the protesters and also tear gas

that was fired by the police. This protester says the state

ignored and impoverished them and this week the government promised

the town more than 5000 new jobs. He says they are empty promises.

That get into a story I have mentioned a couple of times, a group

of pharmaceutical companies are that government should pay them to help

develop new antibiotics. On the face of it, you would think that is

something governments are queueing up to do but this is the argument

that is being made. Drug resistant microbes are predicted to kill in

the region of 10 million people per year are 2015 and the estimate is

that they will be costing the world around $100 trillion. Avoiding that

cost is the incentive to pay for the governments.

Mats Moller Daehli if you rely on the private industry to come up with

the new antibiotics that we clearly need, then we have to pay for them

in some way and the problem at the moment is that the current systems

don't work and everybody agrees they don't work. Imagine that I created a

new wonderful antibiotic that could kill off any bug around the world.

What would you do? They would keep it in their back pocket in case of

emergencies. Drugs companies are concerned they will not get their

money back, so there have been repeated calls for new ways of

funding the research into antibiotics. One of the ideas was

put forward last year by this big review into antimicrobial resistance

and should be a big pool of money that should be given to drug

companies the point when they develop a successful antibiotic, it

will not be lent to how much of the drug was all, it will be like a

prize or award for getting the antibiotic. Governments are

persuaded by it? Nobody has put the money where their mouth is, which is

always the test and the other side is that the review I mentioned told

pharmaceutical companies they should put together $2 billion worth of

money to put in an innovation fund, no mention of that in the

declaration they have come up with calling for money from governments.

Their side of the bargain is missing from their own declaration. It seems

to be a shift away from the free market towards a system where states

fund development at a much more direct level. This would be a

massive shift in the way in which drugs are researched and funded.

This is a direct reaction to the fact that it is failing at the

moment. The last end there was a new class of the Adebayor ticks were

developed was in the 1980s. That is four decades ago since the last one

of those came up. Drug companies have been pulling out of this field,

there are still noticeable big pharmaceutical companies not part of

that declaration, not involved in antibiotic research, something has

to change. The big question is what can industry and government come

together to decide what the future should be. James does most of his

work on the BBC News website and you can find his reporting on that story

there. We have been to many different countries, Somalia,

Australia, UK and unity and wrap up today with an incredible story from

Pennsylvania in the US, A man called Justin Smith

was walking home from his local bar last year when he fell

unconscious in the snow Paramedics thought he was dead,

at just 26 years old. I started shaking his head, you can

leave me. I have never even heard of anything

like this, it is amazing. I cannot thank everyone enough.

What a lucky man. That is it for this edition of outside source. You

can stay in touch on twitter. That is it for this week, we will

see you next week, thank you very much for watching.
