0:00:09 > 0:00:16This is outside source. We will begin in Germany, after months of
0:00:16 > 0:00:20uncertainty the Social Democrats look like they are going to join
0:00:20 > 0:00:24forces with Angela MerkelI am convinced the deal can be a basis
0:00:24 > 0:00:28for the good and stable Government the country needs and many in the
0:00:28 > 0:00:33world are expecting of us.There has been a deal done in the US Senate.
0:00:33 > 0:00:38They have agreed add two-year budget deal. That has to be sold to the
0:00:38 > 0:00:41House of Representatives and of course President too. Looks like
0:00:41 > 0:00:46North Korea's leader is going to send his sister to the opening
0:00:46 > 0:00:51ceremony of the Winter Olympics, we will find out what we know about
0:00:51 > 0:00:58her. The US Justice Department says it has taken out a major cyber crime
0:00:58 > 0:01:01ring which traded in stolen identity, we will learn more about
0:01:01 > 0:01:11that.
0:01:16 > 0:01:20You might remember back in September Outside Source was in Germany for
0:01:20 > 0:01:24its election, and all of these months on, we finally look like we
0:01:24 > 0:01:28have a coalition Government, Angela Merkel will be the Chancellor, that
0:01:28 > 0:01:33much was predictable, what we didn't see in September was that the Social
0:01:33 > 0:01:37Democrats would help her form a government. We didn't see it coming
0:01:37 > 0:01:41because he said he wouldn't be doing it. But when Angela Merkel offered
0:01:41 > 0:01:46the Finance Ministry, the foreign ministry and Labour policy the
0:01:46 > 0:01:53Social Democrats couldn't resist. Here is the Chancellor first of all.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56TRANSLATION:I am convinced the deal we have reached can be the bay
0:01:56 > 0:01:59situation for a good and stable Government our country needs and
0:01:59 > 0:02:03many in the world expect of us. And the working plan that will improve
0:02:03 > 0:02:07life in Germany and will help push our economy into the future.
0:02:07 > 0:02:12This is what the new German Parliament looks like, this big
0:02:12 > 0:02:15black block represents Angela Merkel and the two Conservative Party's
0:02:15 > 0:02:19which she represents. The red is the Social Democrats, both had poor
0:02:19 > 0:02:25elections but it looks like they will make it work. Here is Martin
0:02:25 > 0:02:28Schultz, the man who said he wouldn't form a coalition ex playing
0:02:28 > 0:02:35why this is the right plan.What we have managed to include in the
0:02:35 > 0:02:39treaty about the European Union, and its future, will initiate a
0:02:39 > 0:02:42fundamental change of direction in Europe. With this treaty Germany
0:02:42 > 0:02:46will return to having an active leading role in the European Union.
0:02:46 > 0:02:51Mr Schultz said Germany will pay more into Europe's budget, that will
0:02:51 > 0:02:56be music to the ears of Mr Macron, he will have further reform, he
0:02:56 > 0:03:01wants a joint budget for the eurozone, but perhaps unsurprisingly
0:03:01 > 0:03:05that hasn't gone down with the far right party AFD. They were one of
0:03:05 > 0:03:09the stories of the election in September. Their hay are with 94
0:03:09 > 0:03:13seats, their first reputation in the Bundestag. This is what one of their
0:03:13 > 0:03:16senior figures has been saying today.
0:03:16 > 0:03:20Mr Schultz will ensure that the European policy is made in the
0:03:20 > 0:03:25Social Democrats head quarters in the future. We are getting a fiscal
0:03:25 > 0:03:27union, a European Finance Minister, and probably a European investment
0:03:27 > 0:03:32budget. One wonders why Macron does not
0:03:32 > 0:03:37immediately move to the federal chancery.The reason the AFD did so
0:03:37 > 0:03:40well is because both of the big parties suffered in the election
0:03:40 > 0:03:44because of their support for Mr Merkel's open door immigration
0:03:44 > 0:03:49policy, you may remember, back in 2015, summer of 2016 over two
0:03:49 > 0:03:54million people came into Germany at the peak of the migrant crisis and
0:03:54 > 0:03:57some political lessons appear to have been learned because this new
0:03:57 > 0:04:04coalition deal says there will be a cap on the annual intake of between
0:04:04 > 0:04:09180 and 220,000 people. Well, a bit earlier I spoke to European regional
0:04:09 > 0:04:15editor here in the BBC News room. I wanted to understand how much reel
0:04:15 > 0:04:18influence the Social Democrats would have, over Germany's Government and
0:04:18 > 0:04:23Angela Merkel. Well the finance ministry is the
0:04:23 > 0:04:30main thing, that signals a clear shift away from the policies
0:04:30 > 0:04:36previously of Wolfgang should be her, he hasn't been Finance Minister
0:04:36 > 0:04:44since October but broadly speaking the CDU and its epitome was driving
0:04:44 > 0:04:48a policy of austerity, she was very tightly controlled in terms of the
0:04:48 > 0:04:54loans that Germany was prepared to extend to other countries in the
0:04:54 > 0:04:58eurozone and putting a Social Democrat in charge of the Ministry
0:04:58 > 0:05:02signals there may be some sort of shift. It is not as clear as saying,
0:05:02 > 0:05:07that German policy is going to change completely because the
0:05:07 > 0:05:15agreement that was drawn up now, specifies that the broad policy on
0:05:15 > 0:05:19respecting eurozone budgetary rules must stay, but broadly speaking, the
0:05:19 > 0:05:24Social Democrats in favour of a Europe that shows more solidarity,
0:05:24 > 0:05:29we might see some shift overtime on that issue.Let us talk about the
0:05:29 > 0:05:33zero zone and the European Union, Schultz is pro European as it is
0:05:33 > 0:05:37possible to get really. Angela Merkel still enthusiastic but not as
0:05:37 > 0:05:40enthusiastic in terms of integration. Are we likely to see
0:05:40 > 0:05:48the German position shift on that? Angela Merkel's position has shifted
0:05:48 > 0:05:54slightly, in the post-Brexit years and also with manual Macron being
0:05:54 > 0:05:57such a volleyballable passionate sport over a more integrationist
0:05:57 > 0:06:05stance to Europe. There have been signals that Germany would consider
0:06:05 > 0:06:11things it would have discard. Like a eurozone budget, these sort of
0:06:11 > 0:06:15thing, now the Germans won't necessarily come up with the same
0:06:15 > 0:06:19proposals as Macron but what will happen is that there will be a shift
0:06:19 > 0:06:25broadly and that axis, the Franco-German axis that is key on
0:06:25 > 0:06:29the future of the eurozone will now be able to form policies and move
0:06:29 > 0:06:34forward. Up to now the last few months and the uncertainty created
0:06:34 > 0:06:39has left a vacuum at the heart of Europe. . So the two big parties had
0:06:39 > 0:06:43a disastrous election creating the new Government, the party which got
0:06:43 > 0:06:47the most coverage on election night was the AFD. It is
0:06:47 > 0:06:52the Bundestag, where does it fit into the political equation? You can
0:06:52 > 0:06:58be sure that eggs is egg, that the AFD will be extremely voluble about
0:06:58 > 0:07:03any attempts to increase bail outs to indealted euro done countries,
0:07:03 > 0:07:11for example they will seeks to maximise some of the potential for
0:07:11 > 0:07:14in terms of showing the German public they are looking after
0:07:14 > 0:07:18taxpayer dollars which is a very very important issue, something that
0:07:18 > 0:07:23Angela Merkel has made a big deal of in the past, so they are very much,
0:07:23 > 0:07:29they are waiting in some ways, because at the moment this coalition
0:07:29 > 0:07:34agreement hasn't been signed, sealed and delivered, it still has to be
0:07:34 > 0:07:40voted on.st result of that in a postal ballot is expected in early
0:07:40 > 0:07:47March, it is conceivable that the Social Democrats will reject it. If
0:07:47 > 0:07:51that happens all bets are off. If that does we will look at another
0:07:51 > 0:07:56election.That not going to happen. We will see. Martin Schultz believes
0:07:56 > 0:07:59he has done enough in the negotiations to deliver that
0:07:59 > 0:08:05something he his party will back. He better hope so, if not it's going to
0:08:05 > 0:08:14be a very interesting election with support for the CDU, they all have
0:08:14 > 0:08:19slipped in the polls since the last election in September.We can be
0:08:19 > 0:08:22sure neither of those parties want an election soon.
0:08:23 > 0:08:24sure neither of those parties want an election soon. The leaders of
0:08:24 > 0:08:28parties in the Senate say they have reached an agreement on a spending
0:08:28 > 0:08:38build.
0:08:41 > 0:08:46No-one would suggest it is perfect, but we worked hard to find common
0:08:46 > 0:08:52ground and stay focussed on serving the merge people.After months
0:08:52 > 0:08:52ground and stay focussed on serving the merge people.After months of
0:08:52 > 0:08:57legislative log jam, this judgeest deal is a genuine breakthrough,
0:08:57 > 0:09:03after months of fiscal bring manship, this budget deal is the
0:09:03 > 0:09:08first real sprout of bipartisanship and it should break the long cycle
0:09:08 > 0:09:13of spending crises, that have snarled this Congress, and hampered
0:09:13 > 0:09:18our middle class.If you are watching those clips, you can be
0:09:18 > 0:09:22forgiven for thinking, what exactly is changed? There was a huge gulf in
0:09:22 > 0:09:27positions between the Republicans and the Democrats so what has given?
0:09:27 > 0:09:32I have been talking to catty in Washington.
0:09:32 > 0:09:36It was that a retherapy a rare thing in Washington of Senators doing what
0:09:36 > 0:09:40they are meant to do, working together to try and get things done.
0:09:40 > 0:09:45As you heard there both sides being pretty complimentary ant the other.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48They didn't deal with the tricky issue of immigration is what
0:09:48 > 0:09:53changed. They took that out of the bill all together and dealt with the
0:09:53 > 0:09:57financing and managed to come to something that satisfied both sides.
0:09:57 > 0:10:03The Republicans got more financing for the military, Democrats got more
0:10:03 > 0:10:06for health care programmes and emergency relief. This have to send
0:10:06 > 0:10:10to it the House of Representatives and see whether king men there sign
0:10:10 > 0:10:17on to it.Where did the immigration go? It hasn't been resolved.That is
0:10:17 > 0:10:22what Democrats are saying in the House of Representatives. You
0:10:22 > 0:10:27haven't said you would have you a proper discussion on the dreamer,
0:10:27 > 0:10:30young people brought to America illegally by their parents and some
0:10:30 > 0:10:35Democrats are saying we are not going to carry on funding to budget,
0:10:35 > 0:10:41because our agreement is the leverage we have, so that whole
0:10:41 > 0:10:45immigration issue has the capacity to muck up this deal.The
0:10:45 > 0:10:48President's press secretary says he is pleased the deal is being
0:10:48 > 0:10:52reached. That is interesting because did you see what the Presidents we
0:10:52 > 0:10:55saying yesterday?I would shut it down over this issue, I can't speak
0:10:55 > 0:11:00for everybody at the table but I will tell you I would shut it down
0:11:00 > 0:11:05over this issue, if we don't straighten out our border we don't
0:11:05 > 0:11:10have our country.We know the President wants to build a wall
0:11:10 > 0:11:14along one of America's borders with Mexico. Here is catty on whether
0:11:14 > 0:11:18there has been progress to funding Mr Trump's wall.No, because so far
0:11:18 > 0:11:24the Democrats need to sign on to funding that way and not agreed to
0:11:24 > 0:11:28do so, along with other restrictions to what are legal immigration
0:11:28 > 0:11:31programmes like the viva lot trisystem, that is what the
0:11:31 > 0:11:34Democrats didn't want to do. It is interesting to hear the President
0:11:34 > 0:11:38saying that. Last time round he felt when there was a shut down that was
0:11:38 > 0:11:41a win for Republicans and for the White House and a lot for the
0:11:41 > 0:11:46Democrats so he is trying to run the second part of this movie and see if
0:11:46 > 0:11:51he can get himself another one and blame the Democrats F the President
0:11:51 > 0:11:55doesn't want to keep the Government open, whatever people in Congress do
0:11:55 > 0:12:01isn't going to make much difference. I wanted to talk to her about this.
0:12:01 > 0:12:06Do you remember this photographs? It seems the President was inspired.
0:12:06 > 0:12:11Here is a Washington Post story reporting that last month Mr Trump
0:12:11 > 0:12:15met top generals to tell them to think about a parade of their own.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19There is an unnamed official quoting him as saying it was one of the
0:12:19 > 0:12:22greatest parades we have seen. We will try and top it. The White House
0:12:22 > 0:12:26has been claiming Mr Trump was joking there, but evidently some
0:12:26 > 0:12:29people took it seriously, and if America did go for this, it wouldn't
0:12:29 > 0:12:34be the only one. We have mentioned France, international parade dates
0:12:34 > 0:12:40back to the 1880, it is to celebrate a key turning point of the French
0:12:40 > 0:12:45revolution. Then there is this, Victory Day in Russia where you see
0:12:45 > 0:12:48a lot of military hard wear in Moscow, if that is your thing, you
0:12:48 > 0:12:54also get a lot of that in Pyongyang every year where the North Koreans
0:12:54 > 0:13:04go for it. Interestingly and I only found this out today China has upped
0:13:04 > 0:13:10the number military parades since Xi Jinping became President. The
0:13:10 > 0:13:15Chinese are flexing their military muscles a bit more. This isn't
0:13:15 > 0:13:19something the Americans have sought to do. National public radio told us
0:13:19 > 0:13:24while the President tends to shy away from this because it can seem
0:13:24 > 0:13:30like they are trying to be like their would war adversity --
0:13:30 > 0:13:40adversaries. It's a New World order now, perhaps Mr Trump...We have had
0:13:40 > 0:13:42general Mattis, the secretary of defence saying the Pentagon is
0:13:42 > 0:13:47looking at plans that it is their job to look at them, he has
0:13:47 > 0:13:52confirmed that America is mulling this idea of a militaryer parade. In
0:13:52 > 0:13:56the last hour on our programme I spoke to a Republican Congressman
0:13:56 > 0:14:02and a Republican who is the former US Defence Secretary Bill Coen, both
0:14:02 > 0:14:07told me they didn't think this was awe good idea, they said why are we
0:14:07 > 0:14:11spending this money on military parades which can cost millions of
0:14:11 > 0:14:16dollars, when what we need to do is make sure that American planes are
0:14:16 > 0:14:19flying enough, that American military members are getting pay
0:14:19 > 0:14:26checks, there are useful things that they should spend it on. The
0:14:26 > 0:14:33Congressman said it wasn't a very American idea. 1993 George W Bush
0:14:33 > 0:14:37held a military parade in order of veterans but it was a one off event.
0:14:37 > 0:14:50This isn't something that American Presidents have wanted to do.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56Stay with us on Outside Source - still to come.
0:14:56 > 0:14:57This video
0:14:57 > 0:14:59of Korea expert Robert Kelly being interrupted by his children

0:15:12 > 0:15:15Victims of the serial sex attacker John Worboys have been given
0:15:15 > 0:15:17permission to challenge the decision by the Parole Board to release him.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20Our Home Affairs Correspondent Danny Shaw explains the next
0:15:20 > 0:15:23stage of the process.
0:15:23 > 0:15:27A dossier of evidence, the reasoning, the material, everything
0:15:27 > 0:15:32that underlines the Parole Board's decision is being delivered to
0:15:32 > 0:15:36lawyers for the victims and also the lawyers for Sadiq Khan the Mayor of
0:15:36 > 0:15:39London who is bringing the challenge, it is a lever arch file
0:15:39 > 0:15:44of documents and files, so they will be going through that to find out
0:15:44 > 0:15:48for the first time why has this decision been taken? When they have
0:15:48 > 0:15:50seen the reasoning behind that, then they can formulate their arguments
0:15:50 > 0:15:56to take them to the next step, which is the hearing next month. There is
0:15:56 > 0:16:01a possibility, I suppose, that if the reasons were so solid and so
0:16:01 > 0:16:05grounded in, in evidence, they might decide to abandon it. I think that
0:16:05 > 0:16:14is unlikely at this stage, everything is up in the air.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24Republicans and Democrats in the US Senate have hailed
0:16:24 > 0:16:26a breakthrough in efforts to avert another government shutdown.
0:16:26 > 0:16:30But it still needs to be approved by the House and the President.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32Syrian activists say the continuing bombardment by government forces

0:17:27 > 0:17:33That story's on BBC.com.
0:17:33 > 0:17:3636 people in various countries have been charged for their alleged

0:17:39 > 0:17:42The gang is said to have dealt in stolen credit cards and passwords
0:17:42 > 0:17:52and engaged in bank fraud and ID theft.
0:17:58 > 0:18:02Are all these people in America or other countries?Absolutely not,
0:18:02 > 0:18:06they are across five different continent, including Asia, Europe,
0:18:06 > 0:18:13Australia, and of course, the United States, in countries as diverse as
0:18:13 > 0:18:18Ukrainian, Kosovo, the UK, the US and Russia, this is a global
0:18:18 > 0:18:24operation, and the data they stole and sought to sell also comes from
0:18:24 > 0:18:28round the world including about three-quarters of a million bank
0:18:28 > 0:18:31details from HSBC customers in the UK.If they had these bank details
0:18:31 > 0:18:38who would they be looking to sell them too?Too? To? They ran this
0:18:38 > 0:18:42forum which has been round on the dark web since about 2010, and what
0:18:42 > 0:18:47they would do is they would have various levels of membership, anyone

0:20:07 > 0:20:12Department. Interpol has played a big part of this, I suppose, many of
0:20:12 > 0:20:17the crimes have taken place in the US, in the US Justice Department
0:20:17 > 0:20:22saying that all 50 states are affected. People in all 50 states
0:20:22 > 0:20:27have suffered on behalf o, because of these crimes, so out makes sense
0:20:27 > 0:20:32that the US Justice Department has taken the lead. It includes law

0:20:43 > 0:20:48with us from New York. Let us about the and Goldman Sachs.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50Let us about the and Goldman Sachs.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52The investment bank Goldman Sachs is warning that many
0:20:52 > 0:20:54crypto-currencies could continue to fall and may reach zero.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57Bitcoin has fallen about 70% from its peak of almost
0:20:57 > 0:20:58$20,000 in December.
0:20:58 > 0:21:04Here's one analyst.
0:21:04 > 0:21:08He is saying this is is a move by the big banks to warn about Krill
0:21:08 > 0:21:12toe currencies is.This is the sort of thing they kind of, the
0:21:12 > 0:21:16pessimists have been saying for a long time. Time. Really they are
0:21:16 > 0:21:20questioning the economic value, the Krypto currencies add. They are
0:21:20 > 0:21:25questioning whether or not it can behave as a currency. There is an
0:21:25 > 0:21:29argument that the mainstream finance world don't like it because it will
0:21:29 > 0:21:34disrupt the market so the point you do away with banks but I think
0:21:34 > 0:21:39really, the concerns are justified. There is do we need currencies that
0:21:39 > 0:21:43don't have central banks backing them up. I don't know if there is a
0:21:43 > 0:21:48case for that, accept in the dark markets they talk about in the
0:21:48 > 0:21:48report.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50markets they talk about in the report.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52A Pakistani court has sentenced a man to death for murdering
0:21:52 > 0:21:55a student who was falsely accused of blasphemy.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57Five others got life sentences.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00The student was Mashal Khan.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03Last April rumours spread that he'd posted blasphemous material online.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05He was dragged out of his university accommodation in the province
0:22:05 > 0:22:12of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa by hundreds of fellow students.
0:22:12 > 0:22:13They killed him.
0:22:13 > 0:22:23Mr Khan was studying at Abdul Wali Khan University.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25It's named after a local secular political leader and its website
0:22:25 > 0:22:28talks about "the crying need to join together the human society
0:22:28 > 0:22:30irrespective of caste, colour or creed".
0:22:30 > 0:22:39Evidently his murderers didn't concur.
0:22:39 > 0:22:46Shumaila Jaffrey has more from Islamabad.
0:22:46 > 0:22:51Dough due to security concerns, the proceedings were held in the central
0:22:51 > 0:22:59jail. There were dozens of policemen deployed around the venue and a
0:22:59 > 0:23:03large number of people, including lawyers and journalist, and
0:23:03 > 0:23:09activists and families of the accused were present. Only those who
0:23:09 > 0:23:17have got security passes could go inside.And the mood outside the
0:23:17 > 0:23:23jail was sombre and there was a feeling of anxiety. Mr Kahn's family
0:23:23 > 0:23:29in its reaction the judgment has said that they don't feel that the
0:23:29 > 0:23:35justice has done, and that they will appeal against the acquittal of 26
0:23:35 > 0:23:40accused in this case. Mr Kahn's case, many people believe was a
0:23:40 > 0:23:47watershed moment for the country, because it triggered a debate round
0:23:47 > 0:23:51Pakistan's controversial blasphemy laws. Mr Kahn was accused of
0:23:51 > 0:23:56blasphemy by his university fellows and he was dragged out of his hostel
0:23:56 > 0:24:02room, and he was later shot and was lynched by the mob. But despite the
0:24:02 > 0:24:08fact that there was a discussion, even on the floor of the Parliament
0:24:08 > 0:24:15this issue was discussed for the first time, and legislators from
0:24:15 > 0:24:19different political parties the were of the view this law should be
0:24:19 > 0:24:32amended, but nothing has been done so far to change it.
0:24:35 > 0:24:40Now a break from the news of the day.
0:24:40 > 0:24:46Remember this moment?
0:24:46 > 0:24:50What will it mean for the wider region, I think one of your
0:24:50 > 0:24:52children...
0:24:52 > 0:24:53children...
0:24:53 > 0:24:56It was one of the most watched videos of the year.
0:24:56 > 0:24:58Professor Robert Kelly was in the middle of a live
0:24:58 > 0:25:04interview with the BBC from his home in South Korea when his two children
0:25:04 > 0:25:05burst into his office.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08They were followed shortly after by his wife who tried to do
0:25:08 > 0:25:09a bit of damage limitation.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12Professor Kelly's in London for the Broadcast TV
0:25:12 > 0:25:15Awards tonight, the video is up for TV moment of the year.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18We couldn't let him come so close to our studios without getting him
0:25:18 > 0:25:21to talk to us again.
0:25:21 > 0:25:25I don't think of myself as a celebrity or anything like that. It
0:25:25 > 0:25:30certainly didn't, I don't mind it. Many people have sent us gifts and
0:25:30 > 0:25:33wrote kind e-mails and we is have had a lot of communication about the
0:25:33 > 0:25:36video in the last year, but it mean it's not anything that we really
0:25:36 > 0:25:42sought, it is kind of like, because I'm not in that kind of profession,
0:25:42 > 0:25:46I'm not in the media business, people like take photographs of me
0:25:46 > 0:25:52like, getting out of my car and buying milk as Kos toe and I came
0:25:52 > 0:25:56through immigration, immigration officer recognised me, it is weird,
0:25:56 > 0:25:59anything that we really sought, it is kind of like, because I'm not in
0:25:59 > 0:26:01that kind of profession, I'm not in the media business, people like take
0:26:01 > 0:26:04photographs of me like, getting out of my car and buying milk as Kos toe
0:26:04 > 0:26:06and I came through immigration, immigration officer recognised me,
0:26:06 > 0:26:10it is weird, everywhere people are like "You're that guy? " Yes I am. I
0:26:10 > 0:26:11don't know anything about being a
0:26:11 > 0:26:13don't know anything about being a celebrity.If he wins I'll let you
0:26:13 > 0:26:19know. The weather is on the Wayne. -- way.
0:26:19 > 0:26:22The ongoing drought in South Africa Cape Town, this was the satellite
0:26:22 > 0:26:27picture on Wednesday, this cloud producing rain in Zambia, storms in
0:26:27 > 0:26:32the eastern cape, western cape still dry but we have a bank of cloud
0:26:32 > 0:26:36coming in. That will steam its way towards Cape Town, later on Friday.
0:26:36 > 0:26:40And this is how we get rain in this part of South Africa, at this time
0:26:40 > 0:26:44of the year. Bands of cloud coming in from the Southern Oceans but it
0:26:44 > 0:26:47is normally dry at this time of year and this rain isn't going to amount
0:26:47 > 0:26:53to much. It won't last long, dry sunny weather and the temperatures
0:26:53 > 0:27:00continuing to soar again. Now, a different story this time in
0:27:00 > 0:27:05Indonesia, this is near Jakarta, a ranging dangerous river as a result
0:27:05 > 0:27:09of some very heavy rain we have seen, leading to some mudslides as
0:27:09 > 0:27:15well. This is the wettest time of the year in this part of Indonesia,
0:27:15 > 0:27:19you usually get an average of about 300 millimetres of rain during
0:27:19 > 0:27:25February, and you can see the clouds there, round Jakarta, continuing to
0:27:25 > 0:27:33bring rain. Let us move northwards. There is a lot of dry weather across
0:27:33 > 0:27:38other parts of Asia, we have seen snow in Japan but the high pressure
0:27:38 > 0:27:42is moving in so we will lose the snow shower, it has been cold in
0:27:42 > 0:27:47South Korea in the run-up to the winter games but it is likely to get
0:27:47 > 0:27:52colder. Cold air this time, in Europe, this is Paris, France, and
0:27:52 > 0:27:56considering how mild it has been over the past few weeks and we had
0:27:56 > 0:28:01the flooding in the river Seine, this is the first taste of winter we
0:28:01 > 0:28:05have seen for a some time. Not a lot of snow but it meant the Eiffel
0:28:05 > 0:28:09Tower was closed on Tuesday, disruption to travellers as well.
0:28:09 > 0:28:16And there is probably more snow to come. We have a lot of cold air in
0:28:16 > 0:28:20France, Spain, some colder air for a while in the UK. This weather front
0:28:20 > 0:28:27is significant because there is more on it as it an rears in that colder
0:28:27 > 0:28:31air, we may find significant snow fall. Temperatures above average and
0:28:31 > 0:28:37snow to lower levels in France, not just Paris, so further travel
0:28:37 > 0:28:42disruption is likely. That is Friday. Bear that in mind. We have
0:28:42 > 0:28:47some sunshine in the Alps. The earlier snow is heading to North
0:28:47 > 0:28:53East Europe and we have heavier rain in the Eastern Med train yasm at
0:28:53 > 0:28:57home we will have more of an Atlantic influence, I won't be as
0:28:57 > 0:29:01cold, wet and windy at times, more on that later on. Goodbye.
0:30:09 > 0:30:11Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source and these
0:30:11 > 0:30:14are the main stories here in the BBC Newsroom.
0:30:14 > 0:30:16After months of uncertainty, Germany's chancellor closes
0:30:16 > 0:30:19in on a deal to form a coalition with the centre-left
0:30:19 > 0:30:23Social Democrats.
0:30:23 > 0:30:26TRANSLATION:I am convinced that the deal we have reached can be a basis
0:30:26 > 0:30:30of the good and stable government that our country needs, but many in
0:30:30 > 0:30:32the world are expecting of us.
0:30:33 > 0:30:35Just two days before the US
0:30:35 > 0:30:37government runs out of money, senators say they've reached
0:30:37 > 0:30:38a two-year budget deal.
0:30:38 > 0:30:42Now they have to sell it to the House and the President.
0:30:42 > 0:30:44North Korean leader Kim Jong-un is sending his sister
0:30:44 > 0:30:46to Friday's opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics
0:30:46 > 0:30:47in South Korea.
0:30:47 > 0:30:50We look into what we know about Kim Yo-jong.
0:30:50 > 0:30:53It is not much, to be honest.
0:30:53 > 0:30:54A Pakistan court has handed down sentences
0:30:54 > 0:30:56in a blasphemy lynching case.
0:30:56 > 0:30:59One man has been given a death sentence and five others life terms
0:30:59 > 0:31:05for murdering student Mashal Khan.
0:31:21 > 0:31:23South Africa's embattled President Jacob Zuma could step down
0:31:23 > 0:31:24within the next few days.
0:31:24 > 0:31:31He's facing extensive corruption charges after a nine years in power.
0:31:31 > 0:31:36He has always said he is not guilty. Nonetheless, there are increasing
0:31:36 > 0:31:41calls for the deputy President, Cyril Ramaphosa, and the new head of
0:31:41 > 0:31:45the governing party, to take over. He is holding direct talks with
0:31:45 > 0:31:47Jacob Zuma over how that might work.
0:31:47 > 0:31:50Here's the official photograph of the two men meeting.
0:31:50 > 0:31:56It might be all smiles, but it is serious stuff, Jacob Zuma's days as
0:31:56 > 0:31:59President may be numbered. Both men have acknowledged this needs to be
0:31:59 > 0:32:06resolved one way or another.Has been a dramatic few days, but it
0:32:06 > 0:32:12seems like we are in the endgame today. Cyril Ramaphosa released a
0:32:12 > 0:32:13statement saying there would be a speedy resolution to the leadership
0:32:13 > 0:32:20crisis. Mr Ramaphosa met with the President last night in a private
0:32:20 > 0:32:23meeting that has been described as both fruitful and yielding
0:32:23 > 0:32:30constructive constructions. -- discussions. We understand that Mr
0:32:30 > 0:32:34Ramaphosa has been able to come to some sort of agreement that would
0:32:34 > 0:32:40see President Jacob Zuma resigning in the next few days. People in the
0:32:40 > 0:32:41African National Congress itself have been desperate to have the
0:32:41 > 0:32:44President to leave power, not least because under his leadership the
0:32:44 > 0:32:49party has suffered a great reputational damage. He is seen as
0:32:49 > 0:32:54the man who has ruined the reputation of Nelson Mandela's party
0:32:54 > 0:32:56because of the allegations of corruption that have happened under
0:32:56 > 0:33:00his watch, and also the report of the incredible looting of State
0:33:00 > 0:33:07funds. Mr Ramaphosa, hoping to succeed Jacob Zuma as the President
0:33:07 > 0:33:11of the country, has promised to rebuild the party. For South
0:33:11 > 0:33:15Africans here, for that to happen, the first move will be seeing a
0:33:15 > 0:33:22definitive end to the Jacob Zuma era. That is the moment all South
0:33:22 > 0:33:25Africans are looking for.I want to turn to one of the main stories in
0:33:25 > 0:33:26the UK.
0:33:26 > 0:33:34Tesco is the UK's biggest supermarket.
0:33:34 > 0:33:37It is facing a potential bill of up to £4 billion - $5.5 billion -
0:33:37 > 0:33:40because of an equal pay claim brought by thousands of women.
0:33:40 > 0:33:43They claim that the mainly male staff in its distribution centres
0:33:43 > 0:33:45are paid more than its mainly female in-store workers.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47Different jobs of course - but they are making the case
0:33:47 > 0:33:48they are equivalent.
0:33:48 > 0:33:52Here is one Tesco employee of more than 20 years, Pam Jenkins.
0:33:56 > 0:34:00the jobs are slightly different, but they are of equal value. We deal
0:34:00 > 0:34:04with customers, they don't have too. We take the stock and reload the
0:34:04 > 0:34:08stock, they loaded off the lorry and we loaded onto the shelves.
0:34:08 > 0:34:10The company operates in 13 countries around the world,
0:34:10 > 0:34:12including the United States, parts of Asia,
0:34:12 > 0:34:15including China, Turkey, and a number of European countries.
0:34:15 > 0:34:19In Britain, it's the country's largest private sector employer.
0:34:19 > 0:34:21it has more than 310,000 staff.
0:34:23 > 0:34:25If this claim is successful, thousands could receive
0:34:25 > 0:34:32back-pay of up to £20,000 - over $27,000 dollars.
0:34:32 > 0:34:37And the case could have big implications for other businesses.
0:34:37 > 0:34:44Lawyer Paula Lee is representing Tesco women.
0:34:44 > 0:34:47The law has been there since 1984 that you can compare with a
0:34:47 > 0:34:51different job. That is 34 years to get your house in order. That is 34
0:34:51 > 0:34:56years of having the advantage of paying an equally, and 34 years of
0:34:56 > 0:35:00making pay decisions and financial strategic decisions, 34 years where
0:35:00 > 0:35:05you have chosen to walk around what is hiding in open site.
0:35:05 > 0:35:07Tesco says it is yet to receive notice of the claim,
0:35:07 > 0:35:10and it has always been a place for people to get
0:35:10 > 0:35:12on in their career, regardless of their gender, background
0:35:12 > 0:35:15or education, and we work hard to make sure all our colleagues
0:35:15 > 0:35:25are paid fairly and equally for the jobs they do."
0:35:25 > 0:35:31We are about to get a lot more information on the gender pay gap. A
0:35:31 > 0:35:37new law mandates companies to publish the data by the end of the
0:35:37 > 0:35:37year.
0:35:37 > 0:35:41Here's the British Business Secretary Greg Clark on this case.
0:35:42 > 0:35:45One of the reasons we have introduced this requirement to
0:35:45 > 0:35:48disclose what companies pay and how they pay men and women is to shine
0:35:48 > 0:35:53the spotlight on this. It is absolutely unacceptable that people
0:35:53 > 0:36:05should be paid less because of their gender. This transparency, I hope,
0:36:05 > 0:36:09will cause people to scrutinise practices that are revealed.
0:36:09 > 0:36:12An agreement between Bangladesh and Myanmar to repatriate more
0:36:12 > 0:36:15than 700,000 Muslim Rohingyas who fled to Bangladesh last year
0:36:15 > 0:36:21faces big obstacles.
0:36:21 > 0:36:24One of them is the intense hostility felt by the Buddhist population
0:36:24 > 0:36:28of Myanmars Rakhine state to living alongside their Muslim neighbours.
0:36:28 > 0:36:31Five years ago there was an outbreak of sectarian violence,
0:36:31 > 0:36:33and some of the worst of it was in the ancient
0:36:33 > 0:36:34Rakhine capital of Mrauk U.
0:36:34 > 0:36:42Jonathan Head reports from there.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52These old temples are all that is left of what was once a powerful
0:36:52 > 0:36:58Buddhist kingdom. They are a reminder to the Rakhine people, some
0:36:58 > 0:37:04of the poorest in Myanmar, of how far they have fallen. It is that
0:37:04 > 0:37:07sense of humiliating decline, a favourite theme of local
0:37:07 > 0:37:12politicians, which has stirred up a dangerous fear of being squeezed on
0:37:12 > 0:37:16one size by the Burmese state, and on the other by a massive Muslim
0:37:16 > 0:37:23population. Five years ago, they turned on their Muslim neighbours.
0:37:23 > 0:37:29Dozens died in this part of Rakhine. Many Rohingya communities were
0:37:29 > 0:37:35completely destroyed. The survivors, confined by the government to
0:37:35 > 0:37:43squalid camps. This was the start of a bitter ethnic conflict which led
0:37:43 > 0:37:46to the flight of 700 refugees to Bangladesh last year.
0:37:51 > 0:37:57But the Rakhine neighbours have little sympathy, they have their own
0:37:57 > 0:38:02complaints. They blamed the government for their poverty. And
0:38:02 > 0:38:06they all had tales to tell of violent disputes with Muslims. We
0:38:06 > 0:38:11can't have them here, they said. And yet they remembered living together
0:38:11 > 0:38:20peacefully once. Nobody was sure why that had changed.All of the
0:38:20 > 0:38:25statues, the images...Ten works as a tour guide and is also a Rakhine
0:38:25 > 0:38:38political activist, fearful for his community. He was asked if he could
0:38:38 > 0:38:42accept the refugees coming back.If we except the Muslims now, they
0:38:42 > 0:38:48really have to follow the rules of law in our country.The existing
0:38:48 > 0:38:53laws?The existing laws.They cannot be citizens?There will be some
0:38:53 > 0:38:57muscle and people that can be citizens by citizenship law, but on
0:38:57 > 0:39:02the other hand, we are sure there are a lot of illegal Muslims from
0:39:02 > 0:39:08Bangladesh.Today, in this part of Rakhine, you can see Rohingyas only
0:39:08 > 0:39:14as ghostly figures by the roadside. There are Muslim Rohingya
0:39:14 > 0:39:17communities in Mrauk U, but they are very tightly segregated. We have
0:39:17 > 0:39:20just been passing through one now. We have been followed by police
0:39:20 > 0:39:24special Branch. For most people, most foreigners visiting, the
0:39:24 > 0:39:29Muslims may as well be invisible. We did eventually shake off the police
0:39:29 > 0:39:37escort and found a group of Rohingyas working near the road.
0:39:37 > 0:39:42Talking to us was risky for them. We have concealed their identities.
0:39:42 > 0:39:49They described a life of constant restrictions and constant fear. They
0:39:49 > 0:39:53live far from the Bangladesh border. It would be a dangerous journey. And
0:39:53 > 0:39:57yet, even now they think that they may eventually have to join the
0:39:57 > 0:39:59refugee exodus.
0:40:05 > 0:40:08There is more on that story and all of the stories that recover on the
0:40:08 > 0:40:11BBC website. -- that we cover.
0:40:22 > 0:40:23Interesting legal conundrum in the Netherlands.
0:40:23 > 0:40:26A judge has asked the European Court of Justice to decide
0:40:26 > 0:40:28whether a group of Britons living there will retain
0:40:28 > 0:40:31their EU citizenship once the UK leaves the EU.
0:40:31 > 0:40:33This matters because if it rules that those citizenship rights remain
0:40:33 > 0:40:36for these people in the Netherlands - that could apply across the EU.
0:40:37 > 0:40:41Anna Holligan's in The Hague.
0:40:42 > 0:40:44This group of five British nationals described themselves
0:40:44 > 0:40:48as the forgotten people.
0:40:48 > 0:40:53They say they've been living in a state of limbo,
0:40:53 > 0:40:55They described the Dutch judges' decision as incredible
0:40:55 > 0:40:56and say they are delighted.
0:40:56 > 0:41:00The case refers to Article 20 of the Lisbon Treaty,
0:41:00 > 0:41:03which lays out a European citizens' rights when they are members
0:41:03 > 0:41:05of a European, EU state.
0:41:05 > 0:41:08But it doesn't say what happens to those European citizenship rights
0:41:08 > 0:41:16if a country leaves the union.
0:41:16 > 0:41:19Lawyers representing the of five British national is the Dutch judge
0:41:19 > 0:41:25to seek clarity from the ECJ, what would become of those rights after
0:41:25 > 0:41:32Brexit, after March 20 19. In phase one of the negotiations they
0:41:32 > 0:41:36confirmed, negotiators, Britain, and the EU 27, that British nationals
0:41:36 > 0:41:40would be allowed to continue to live and work in the EU, in the country
0:41:40 > 0:41:47in which they currently reside. Many of these people fear they would be
0:41:47 > 0:41:50landlocked if their freedom of movement is not guaranteed. So, that
0:41:50 > 0:41:55is what they are seeking clarity on. This is really only the first stage.
0:41:55 > 0:42:00It is a small case. If the ECJ agrees to provide that clarity and
0:42:00 > 0:42:07decides that the EU citizenship rights are inalienable, in other
0:42:07 > 0:42:12words they will continue to exist after Brexit, they could potentially
0:42:12 > 0:42:17affect more than a million UK citizens that are currently living
0:42:17 > 0:42:21and working here on the continent.
0:42:23 > 0:42:26The UK Government has been looking into how different kinds of Brexit
0:42:26 > 0:42:27may affect the economy.
0:42:27 > 0:42:28It's not good news.
0:42:28 > 0:42:30Their forecasts suggest all areas will suffer lower growth,
0:42:30 > 0:42:39especially if Britain leaves the EU without a deal.
0:42:39 > 0:42:41Over 15 years, London would see 3.5% lower growth than it
0:42:41 > 0:42:44would otherwise have had.
0:42:44 > 0:42:49In the West Midlands it would be 13% smaller.
0:42:49 > 0:42:53And in the north east it would be 16% smaller.
0:42:53 > 0:42:55Those figures are already being challenged, and it's important
0:42:55 > 0:43:01to point out that forecasts are often wrong.
0:43:01 > 0:43:04All this comes as the Prime Minister is under pressure to spell out
0:43:04 > 0:43:10exactly what sort of a partnership she wants with the EU.
0:43:10 > 0:43:17Here she is speaking in Parliament earlier today.
0:43:17 > 0:43:21We will be robust in our arguments, as I have said right from the
0:43:21 > 0:43:25beginning. We will hear noises and all sorts of things being said about
0:43:25 > 0:43:29positions being taken. What matters is the position that we take in the
0:43:29 > 0:43:33negotiations as we sit down and negotiate the best deal. We have
0:43:33 > 0:43:36shown we can do that, we did it in December and we are going to do it
0:43:36 > 0:43:37again.
0:43:37 > 0:43:41All this come as Theresa May holds the first of two key meetings
0:43:41 > 0:43:43with her senior ministers to try to hammer out their Brexit
0:43:43 > 0:43:46positions for the next stage of negotiations.
0:43:46 > 0:43:51Iain Watson, in Westminster.
0:43:51 > 0:43:53There may some people scratching their heads and thinking, how come
0:43:53 > 0:43:58they haven't thrashed this out a little bit earlier?Maybe because
0:43:58 > 0:44:01you talk about negotiations. Negotiations are still going on in
0:44:01 > 0:44:06the Cabinet, the so-called war cabinet, a Brexit subcommittee
0:44:06 > 0:44:13meeting. Today it was discussing Northern Ireland and such issues.
0:44:13 > 0:44:18Over Northern Ireland, a lot could rest. There is a backstop option
0:44:18 > 0:44:22that the government has agreed. If all else fails, we would have full
0:44:22 > 0:44:26alignment between Northern Ireland and the Irish public. That is not
0:44:26 > 0:44:29being they will be following the same rules after Brexit, but they
0:44:29 > 0:44:33will be looking for the same kind of outcome, a similar outcome for food
0:44:33 > 0:44:37standards, for example, energy supply. What isn't clear yet in the
0:44:37 > 0:44:41Cabinet is what they are going to be asking for in trade talks. They
0:44:41 > 0:44:45think that might unlock a better relationship between the UK and the
0:44:45 > 0:44:48Republic of Ireland after Brexit. But so far there has been no
0:44:48 > 0:44:55consensus around the Cabinet table as to what that should be. As far as
0:44:55 > 0:44:58we are aware, from this evening, the lack of consensus persists. Some of
0:44:58 > 0:45:03it is incredibly technical about what kind of equipment would
0:45:03 > 0:45:06constitute new infrastructure, would make it a hard or soft border? Some
0:45:06 > 0:45:10of it is far more ideological driven and we were not expecting, and have
0:45:10 > 0:45:14not got a definitive answer from today Fulham talks. Another Brexit
0:45:14 > 0:45:18subcommittee tomorrow. This is all focusing towards the main
0:45:18 > 0:45:19discussions on our future relationship with the European
0:45:19 > 0:45:25Union. On a day-to-day basis, a lot of the Cabinet members are
0:45:25 > 0:45:28concentrating more on what they want to get from a transition deal from
0:45:28 > 0:45:32what happens, effectively, in two years or so immediately after we
0:45:32 > 0:45:34leave. That is something the Government is hoping to get thrashed
0:45:34 > 0:45:39out with Brussels by the third week in March. To some extent, that is
0:45:39 > 0:45:47taking up the time. But they are still unresolved issues.Help me
0:45:47 > 0:45:51out, just before you go. It feels like we get two points where they
0:45:51 > 0:45:54really have to decide what they want from Brexit. Is the final backstop
0:45:54 > 0:45:58tomorrow, or could it actually be fudged for the next few weeks and
0:45:58 > 0:46:02months and still deal with the EU as the negotiations go on?I don't
0:46:02 > 0:46:08think the next few months, there will have to take a decision before
0:46:08 > 0:46:12that. It could well be a few weeks. First of all, as I say, the
0:46:12 > 0:46:16transition needs to be thrashed out. Then the future relationship. They
0:46:16 > 0:46:19are still trying to work towards getting that sorted out by October.
0:46:19 > 0:46:26They could have time to give MPs what they call a meaningful vote.
0:46:26 > 0:46:30There are some rumours, no stronger than that, that perhaps the Prime
0:46:30 > 0:46:34Minister might make her third big speech on Brexit. She may go to
0:46:34 > 0:46:39Lancaster house to set the ball rolling, and again in Florence, when
0:46:39 > 0:46:42she was increasing the financial contribution, it might be that she
0:46:42 > 0:46:47makes a speech in the next few weeks that allows the Cabinet to add
0:46:47 > 0:46:50differences. She might come to a conclusion. That is by no means
0:46:50 > 0:46:55definite. We hear that the Foreign Secretary is making a speech of his
0:46:55 > 0:46:59own on what he calls a liberal Brexit. No date on that, but we may
0:46:59 > 0:47:05have some sense, until this is settled, of competing visions.Good
0:47:05 > 0:47:11to talk to you. A liberal Brexit, we can add that to the lists of Brexit
0:47:11 > 0:47:19we are considering, soft Brexit, hard Brexit, now liberal Brexit.
0:47:19 > 0:47:21It has been intriguing to watch North Korea manoeuvring as the
0:47:21 > 0:47:27Winter Olympics approaches. We understand that Yunjong Won is
0:47:27 > 0:47:33sending his sister to the opening ceremony in Pyeongchang in South
0:47:33 > 0:47:41Korea. His sister is called's. -- Kim Yo-jong. She was promoted last
0:47:41 > 0:47:50year. She is a full sister of Kim Jong-un. When she makes that trip
0:47:50 > 0:47:54she will be the first immediate Kim family member from across the border
0:47:54 > 0:47:59to go south for 65 years. Stephen McDonald is in South Korea. Here he
0:47:59 > 0:48:01is.
0:48:02 > 0:48:08The South Korean government is interpreting this visit by Kim
0:48:08 > 0:48:11Yo-jong as a big push by the North to achieve a diplomatic breakthrough
0:48:11 > 0:48:16during the Olympics. The problem is that she is subject to the United
0:48:16 > 0:48:19States sanctions following allegations of her involvement in
0:48:19 > 0:48:21human rights abuses. For this reason, the South Korean government
0:48:21 > 0:48:26has been in talks with allies in Washington to try to achieve a green
0:48:26 > 0:48:33light for her to attend. However, another member of the North Korean
0:48:33 > 0:48:40delegation is even more problematic. He is subject to United Nations
0:48:40 > 0:48:45sanctions, a travel ban and assets freeze. That means if he were to
0:48:45 > 0:48:49cross the border into the south, this country would technically be in
0:48:49 > 0:48:54breach of UN sanctions. So, the South Korean government is also in
0:48:54 > 0:48:57talks with the UN Security Council to try to find out what the
0:48:57 > 0:48:59implications of that are.
0:49:01 > 0:49:04The relationship between Turkey and the United States is under pressure.
0:49:04 > 0:49:06For almost three weeks, the Turkish military has been
0:49:06 > 0:49:08attacking Kurdish fighters in the Afrin region
0:49:08 > 0:49:13in northern Syria.
0:49:13 > 0:49:15Those Kurdish fighters had actually been armed by the US.
0:49:15 > 0:49:21It's the latest step in a confrontation that's pitting
0:49:21 > 0:49:24two key Nato members against each other.
0:49:24 > 0:49:28The BBC's Turkey correspondent Mark Lowen reports.
0:49:33 > 0:49:39Sport is friendlier than politics by a long shot. Turks and Americans
0:49:39 > 0:49:44training together in an Istanbul and American football team. The rivalry
0:49:44 > 0:49:49is amicable between the countries it is less so. The Nato allies are at
0:49:49 > 0:49:53each other's throats over Syria, politics, human rights, even
0:49:53 > 0:49:58suspending the granting of visas last year. A relationship in crisis
0:49:58 > 0:50:01felt here.In the political climate currently, you don't know exactly
0:50:01 > 0:50:07what is going to happen. I think the leaders of both countries have quit
0:50:07 > 0:50:11triggers in terms of temperament. That has been shown with the Visa
0:50:11 > 0:50:16ban. We have two individuals leading two big countries with this type of
0:50:16 > 0:50:19mentality. You can't predict what is going to happen tomorrow or the next
0:50:19 > 0:50:25day.Turkey is now bombing Turkish fighters in Syria who were armed by
0:50:25 > 0:50:30the US. For Ankara they are terrorists, for Washington, partners
0:50:30 > 0:50:34against the Islamic State group. The risk of a direct clash between
0:50:34 > 0:50:37Nato's two biggest armies is growing.We don't have a problem
0:50:37 > 0:50:42with the United States. We have suffered together, we have voted
0:50:42 > 0:50:51together. But if we have lost 30,000 lives in this country because of the
0:50:51 > 0:50:55terrorist organisations, and if we look at the United States, seeing
0:50:55 > 0:51:03that they are giving ammunition, giving expertise, American soldiers
0:51:03 > 0:51:09are turning out. This is the point where we must start.But the row
0:51:09 > 0:51:13goes deeper, to a cleric blamed for the failed coup here, who lives in
0:51:13 > 0:51:22the US. With his extradition looking unlikely, Turkey detains US
0:51:22 > 0:51:25diplomatic staff, enraging Washington. Pro-government media is
0:51:25 > 0:51:29hammering home the message. Polls showed nearly two thirds here CV US
0:51:29 > 0:51:33as the main threat to Turkey, a relationship crucial for Security
0:51:33 > 0:51:39and trade is worst for decades. Joining Nato and could take you to
0:51:39 > 0:51:43the West. This country, which struggles continents, started EU
0:51:43 > 0:51:47membership talks 13 years ago. As relations with both have grown more
0:51:47 > 0:51:52hostile, Turkey has realigned itself towards Russia and Arab countries
0:51:52 > 0:51:56that do not criticise the state of democracy here. That is serious.
0:51:56 > 0:52:01Turkey is too important for the West to lose. It has left these Turkish
0:52:01 > 0:52:06students aiming to study in the US watching anxiously, caught up in a
0:52:06 > 0:52:12wider conflict.I am most concerned about my family. The situation with
0:52:12 > 0:52:15the United States, if it gets worse, they cannot come to the United
0:52:15 > 0:52:21States. Once they remove the travel visas, nobody can go there.When you
0:52:21 > 0:52:27go to say you are going to study in the US to somebody in an eastern
0:52:27 > 0:52:30part of Turkey, they don't like that. They think you are betraying
0:52:30 > 0:52:36your own country.Back on the pitch, the Turks and Americans practice
0:52:36 > 0:52:39their moves. But for the leaders, solving a relationship close to
0:52:39 > 0:52:43breaking point is the urgent problem to tackle.
0:52:48 > 0:52:51We have just got time to talk about this. I am glad we do.
0:52:51 > 0:52:53New analysis calculates that a Briton 10,000 years ago
0:52:53 > 0:52:56would have looked liked this - dark brown skin and blue eyes.
0:52:56 > 0:52:58He's known as Cheddar Man because his skeleton
0:52:58 > 0:53:00was unearthed over a century ago here in Cheddar Gorge
0:53:00 > 0:53:04in the South West of England.
0:53:04 > 0:53:06It was found in Gough's Cave and this replica
0:53:06 > 0:53:10now lies in its place.
0:53:10 > 0:53:13Jon Kay can explain how scientists tried to estimate what this
0:53:13 > 0:53:20person looked like.
0:53:20 > 0:53:21One, two, three.
0:53:21 > 0:53:24Putting flesh on his bones.
0:53:24 > 0:53:27The face of Cheddar Man finally revealed.
0:53:27 > 0:53:29By extracting his DNA and scanning his skull,
0:53:29 > 0:53:31experts say they have created him in unprecedented detail.
0:53:31 > 0:53:37And he looks very different from what they were expecting.
0:53:37 > 0:53:41The hair, the eyes, the face.
0:53:41 > 0:53:43That combination of blue eyes and dark skin, really very striking.
0:53:43 > 0:53:46Something we would not have imagined.
0:53:46 > 0:53:49And to also get from the DNA details of his biology.
0:53:49 > 0:53:52The fact that he couldn't digest milk as an adult.
0:53:52 > 0:53:55That is something that came really with the advent of farming.
0:53:55 > 0:54:01And 10,000 years ago people didn't have that.
0:54:02 > 0:54:05Look how he's changed.
0:54:05 > 0:54:07This is what scientists used to think he looked like.
0:54:07 > 0:54:10A reconstruction from 20 years ago when DNA analysis
0:54:10 > 0:54:11was nowhere near as developed.
0:54:11 > 0:54:14Cheddar Man and I share a common female relative.
0:54:14 > 0:54:17This is modern-day Cheddar Man.
0:54:17 > 0:54:21Adrian Targett lives in the same village and shares DNA
0:54:21 > 0:54:23with the skeleton found in the gorge.
0:54:23 > 0:54:27So, time to meet his ancestor.
0:54:27 > 0:54:29Do you want to see your great, great, great, great,
0:54:29 > 0:54:31great, great, great grandfather?
0:54:31 > 0:54:32OK, here he comes.
0:54:32 > 0:54:37And...
0:54:37 > 0:54:40Oh, my.
0:54:40 > 0:54:42What do you think?
0:54:42 > 0:54:43It is remarkable, isn't it?
0:54:43 > 0:54:45I think there is probably some resemblance.
0:54:45 > 0:54:48Yes, I think there are certainly other members in my family
0:54:48 > 0:54:51who he bears a resemblance to.
0:54:51 > 0:54:53Yes, some of my cousins.
0:54:53 > 0:54:54You can see that in there?
0:54:54 > 0:54:56Yes.
0:54:56 > 0:54:59I think my eyes are blue!
0:54:59 > 0:55:00Lets have a look.
0:55:00 > 0:55:01They are blue!
0:55:01 > 0:55:03They are blue.
0:55:03 > 0:55:05His hair is not quite as grey as mine is.
0:55:05 > 0:55:09Or my beard!
0:55:09 > 0:55:12So 10,000 years after he died, 100 years after he was found,
0:55:12 > 0:55:18finally a face to fit the name of Adrian's ancestor.
0:55:18 > 0:55:21Jon Kay, BBC News, Cheddar in Somerset.
