Some of the main stories in the BBC newsroom. First, Donald Trump in

Washington. We need to make people accountable. He's going to hike

military spending. I think you have certainly almost seen this already.

There is a mistake. Moonlights, you guys won best picture. Moonlights,

best picture -- Moonlight. We will talk about the Oscars in a moment.

It is two years since one of Russia's main opposition leaders was

assassinated. That was Moscow yesterday. In the Premier League

Leicester City are playing their first match since Claudio Ranieri

was sacked. In the unlikely event that this

programme is your first contact with the outside world, I'm sure you have

heard that the war was a mistake at the Oscars. And the Academy award

for best picture... La La Land. There is a mistake. You guys won

best picture. This is not a joke, I'm afraid they read the wrong

thing. This is not a joke. Moonlight has won best picture. Moonlight,

best picture. PricewaterhouseCoopers may be error. It has been counting

the Oscar ballots for 83 years and it had to issue an apology. It said

that the presenters had been mistakenly been given the wrong

category envelope. Even in my dreams this could not be true, but to hell

with dreams because this is true. My heart was a little broken, but it is

one of those things that get thrown at you. You can lean into its push

away from it and as I said, it was a real honour to be able to give it to

them. What a gracious man he was last night. As you can imagine this

has been a very popular story with headline writers. The Los Angeles

Times came up with this. This is the Chicago Sun Times.

Earlier I spoke to one of our it had entered is -- entertainment

correspondence. It would appear that in the confusion the presenter was

handed the wrong envelope which was for the Best actress award which

went to Emma Stone for La La Land. Warren Beatty, you could see his

confusion. He was trying to bide time. Unfortunately it got read out.

The other confusion was that the hosts kept making jokes about Matt

Damon and the guy that came on that was security that had to break the

news looks like Matt Damon, so that confuse people. That is why they

kept on saying, this is not a joke. And in the middle of this there is

this extraordinary victory for a film focusing on a black gay man in

America. I don't think a film on that subject matter would normally

have one. It wouldn't. People are annoyed that this has overshadowed

Moonlight's win. Barry Jenkins says he does not care. Naomie Harris, who

plays the mother in the film, says she is shocked, but they are

overwhelmingly happy, but yet everyone is still talking about the

mistake and ignoring the fact that this movie which had an all

African-American cars, written and directed by two black people and was

made on a small budget has won the Best film. Time for the sport.

Leicester City are about to finish the first game since the manager

Claudio Ranieri was sacked. They have been taking on Liverpool at

home. The last time I checked it was going well.

It has been remarkable. They lead at home by 3-1. This was a team who had

not scored a single league goal in the season so far in 2017. They have

now scored three tonight. Jamie Vardy got two. Drinkwater has also

scored. Liverpool have pulled one back, but as you can imagine, hard

to explain how this has happened. Leicester looked doomed. They were

in the relegation zone following Crystal Palace's win over the

weekend. They chose to get rid of Claudio Ranieri, but they are

producing a wonderful performance tonight and they look like the

Leicester City of old. One question you have to ask is who will replace

him? A lot of names have been linked with the job. Roberta Mancini is one

of those. -- Roberto Mancini. He has distanced himself from the job

though. Guus Hiddink is also in the frame to come in as the new manager.

Craig Shakespeare is in the hot seat at the moment following Ranieri 's

departure. Work Leicester to beat Liverpool and Hull, you wonder

perhaps whether or not he might get the job full-time. Thank you. If you

watch the programme regularly you will know that we try to bring you

underreported sports and here is another one for you. This is a

mixture of ice hockey and football. It is a bit different. It is a

Russian super league game. This is what started happening with 20

minutes to go. Things got pretty weird. First of all, they scored

three own goals. All of the goals were own goals. The suspicion is

that both wanted to lose to avoid a trickier running in the play-offs.

The federation says the result will not stand and an investigation has

been launched. The United States is the front runner to hold the 2026

World Cup. It's been argued that Donald Trump is Matt proposed travel

ban could scupper those American World Cup ambitions. Here is Richard

Conway. There could be implications for the

2026 World Cup bids which the EU United States are the clear front

runners for. We're doing hasn't even begun for

the 2026 World Cup. It is still being discussed, but the US is the

front runner for it and issues around the travel ban which have

seen a number of people from different nationalities

theoretically barred from entering the US, in particular Syrian

citizens, and it could be an issue if there is not the ability come

2026 for everyone around the world to travel freely to the US to watch

or even to play in the World Cup. The riders are used this stuff.

Everyone was OK. At the end of it the open event was won by Sweden.

The US rider won the women's event. The next event will be in the

Philippines in April. Let us turn to Russia. I want to show you some

pictures. A big turnout on the streets. Thousands of people

remembering the opposition leader Boris nezz of who was shot dead

outside the Kremlin. He had been a fierce critic of Vladimir Putin. The

March in Moscow is headline news. The headline said, we came here not

to much, but to cry. This headline says the opposition has woken up

whispering. The March this year was more radical than last's years.

Protesters are demanding the resignation of Vladimir Putin. The

tradition of not solving political murders, what does this tell you

about a state? It tells you it is a failed state, the paper said. Here

are some tweets. I wasn't to hear -- I wasn't

surprised to hear that about the newspapers, but I was surprised

about what he said about TV. We should point our attention to some

other papers that were writing about the Kremlin repairing for a

presidential campaign in 2018. I think we should bring those two

together, so this might be the attempt to release the tension and

pressure in some parts of society the amount of people who

claim, it was significant. It's significant that people are still

coming. There were thousands of people, given both the estimates

were different, depending on who you listen to. The numbers were lower

than a year ago. Next day the self-made memorial was removed.

These protesters say they want a transparent investigation into the

murder of Mr Nemtsov. There are men on trial, but it is going slowly.

Witnesses have been questioned. The guy who was passing by when Nemtsov

was shot could not be found. Also the lady who was with Mr Nemtsov at

that moment, she has not appeared in court. There are numerous video

cameras surrounding the place where he was murdered and no footage has

been released. We are lucky that we can turn to Olga Adams her other BBC

Russia colleagues. You can also follow the story online. In a few

moments we will return to Iraq. We have been concentrating on Mosul.

BBC Arabic will bring us up-to-date on why one bridge could be crucial

in the battle against the Islamic State.

People liable for personal injuries will get bigger pay-outs, but it

could cost the NHS over ?1 billion because of claims of negligent

treatment. Here is our personal finance correspondent.

Compensation is a lifeline for people like Tom,

awarded ?1.5 million after losing a leg in an accident at work.

Tom thinks it's right that victims should get more to pay

This prosthetic's amazing, but it's nowhere near a human leg.

These legs are top of the range legs at ?70,000 each.

Whether it's from an industrial accident or from a car accident,

insurers have been able to keep down the lump sum they pay

victims by saying well, they can invest it and make

Now the government's saying in these days of very low interest rates,

they will have to assume that people will make less than nothing

from year to year out of their compensation,

and that means insurers having to pay out much more upfront.

They've known this was coming down the track.

They failed to put the money aside and anticipate that risk,

and they are now suffering the consequences of that.

Instead of putting the money to one side,

they paid it out in dividends, profits and salaries.

Insurers gave an example of a 30-year-old who needed to be

looked after permanently, who would get a ?3.4 million payment

now, a sum which would more than double under the new formula

To cover the cost, the typical comprehensive motor policy

of ?450 would rise by ?75, with bigger increases

The insurers Association said the move from the Lord Chancellor

This is a crazy decision by the Lord Chancellor,

which is likely to lead to significantly increased

premiums for motorists and businesses through no fault

of their own because of her use of a broken formula which needs

It will have to pay ?1 billion each year more in compensation

for medical negligence, billed the government

So, should drivers, hospitals and employers pay more so that

Ministers have promised a consultation before Easter

on whether the rules should be reformed.

I live in the Outside Source newsroom. Donald Trump is hoping to

boost defence spending in 2018. I want to bring you the latest

regarding the battle for Mosul. We spoken about this extensively since

it began. There has been a push to get Islamic State out of Iraq's

biggest cities. It again in October. There is a crucial bridge that links

the east of the city and the west of the city. Here are more details and

satellite images. It is the most southern of Mosul's is. If it can be

prepared, it could become a supply line and an escape route for trapped

civilians. Our correspondent from BBC Arabic

gives us the latest. The city is divided into two colours. The green

is under control of the government. The red colour is where I sit still

has a grip. If we look at the Mosul defensive -- crisis. Isis. Today is

significant for the Iraqi forces because now you have the bridge and

in a week we have managed to get hold of Mosul airport and a military

base which strengthens and secures the roots from the southern part of

the city. If they manage to repair the bridge, they can bring in

supplies, food supplies and aid for the civilians. If the outcome is

inevitable and Mosul Falls, where does that leave the Islamic State

group in Iraq? Symbolically if you remember two years ago... Next I

want to bring you an investigation into the circumstances of the murder

of the half brother of North Korea's leave two weeks ago.

He had been exposed to a toxic gas and died within 20 minutes. The

BBC's Rupert Wingfield Hayes has been investigating.

This was one of the most brazen killings of recent years. This is

the spot where Kim Jong-Nam was attacked. Just take a look around

here. The spot is overlooked by at least six CCTV cameras. Just a few

metres away in this cafe at one of those tables for North Korean men

were sitting watching. All four are now wanted by the Malaysian

authorities. One is reported to be a known North Korean security agent.

After the attack was over, they got up and headed for departures. A few

minutes later they boarded a flight to Jakarta and then onto Dubai. What

about the two young women accused of carrying out the attack? One is from

Vietnam's, the other Indonesian. One of them was working in this hotel

behind me here in a massage parlour on the second floor. In Malaysian

massage parlours are often a front for the sex industry. It's fairly

clear that both these women were living a precarious existence. One

of them told the police she was approached by a man calling himself

James. He offered her a chance to take part in a TV reality show. It

turns out that James used the force name and he is a North Korean. The

second secretary of the North Korean Embassy is said to have played a

part, but we will never find out because he has diplomatic immunity.

So much of this story doesn't add up. Why such a public place? Why

hire to foreign women to carry out the hit. Why are you such a rare

nerve agent? Was the killing a chilling warning to North Korea's

enemies, or did they think they would get away with murder and

something went wrong? Is that Lee who is behind it is still unknown.

It's thought that for spies were involved. Thank you very much for

watching. I will see you tomorrow -- I will see you tomorrow at the

same time.
