:00:00. > :00:00.tributes to Don Howe, the former England international and coach, who
:00:00. > :00:00.has died at the age of 80. All coming up in Sportsday in 15 minutes
:00:00. > :00:23.after the papers. So, welcome to our look ahead to
:00:24. > :00:29.what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow, we are joined by Oliver
:00:30. > :00:33.Wright. Just before you what they have to say about tomorrow's papers,
:00:34. > :00:38.let's take you through a view of the front pages, a flooded street scene
:00:39. > :00:43.from York dominates the Independent, also reporting on how Britain
:00:44. > :00:46.leaving VE you could lead to the loss of funding to scientific
:00:47. > :00:50.research. Storm Eva is the focus of the Daily Express, warning of 80 mph
:00:51. > :00:58.gales and torrential downpours over the next few days. In a similar
:00:59. > :01:13.vein, the i warning through this to expect a wash-out winter. The FT,
:01:14. > :01:16.and the Telegraph leads on an Oxford University research
:01:17. > :01:24.the Daily Mail, maternity wards can not cope, half of how to turn down
:01:25. > :01:28.women in labour because of a lack of beds. Not quite silly season, still
:01:29. > :01:34.a lot of stories around. Very interesting story on the front page
:01:35. > :01:43.of the Guardian, reporting on a UK imam who has had his Business Visa
:01:44. > :01:47.evoked, and it appears to be -- revoked, and it appears to be the
:01:48. > :01:51.latest in a showing of Muslim families being turned away from
:01:52. > :01:56.America. This follows on from the story yesterday of a Muslim family
:01:57. > :01:59.who spent ?9,000 on a holiday to Disneyland, only to be told at
:02:00. > :02:04.Gatwick sorry, you can't come in. Now we have a British imam who had a
:02:05. > :02:08.business Visa, sounds like he travels a lot to the States over the
:02:09. > :02:11.last few months with no problem. He went to Heathrow, about a get on the
:02:12. > :02:15.flight and was stopped by people who you said were embassy staff,
:02:16. > :02:20.American embassy staff, slightly odd that they were at Heathrow, and they
:02:21. > :02:24.said sorry, your Visa has been revoked. Again, no explanation. It
:02:25. > :02:29.is a really difficult story because a few tender round the other way and
:02:30. > :02:36.we had people coming into the UK, I am sure it would be, if there is any
:02:37. > :02:39.risk, we should not let them in, but if it is British people going to
:02:40. > :02:45.America we look at a slightly different way. There is no
:02:46. > :02:48.explanation. Nothing they can do about it, they don't get the money
:02:49. > :02:51.for the flight back. We probably do need a bit more transparency, if
:02:52. > :02:58.there is a threat, you should say so. What did he have to say that
:02:59. > :03:05.this, because he was a Liberal Democrat candidate at one point. He
:03:06. > :03:08.has had quite a lot to say about it. There is a line further down in the
:03:09. > :03:13.story where he says he has received a call from the embassy who are keen
:03:14. > :03:19.to sort the matter out. I can't help feeling that when do much use in the
:03:20. > :03:27.interim to claim, as he does, and this is obviously the main hook the
:03:28. > :03:33.Guardian has gone on, the US State Department, if I were the USM is
:03:34. > :03:38.here that think that would go down terribly well. He has clearly spoken
:03:39. > :03:40.at length to the Guardian. He describes the official who dealt
:03:41. > :03:46.with them directly as cold, calculated and very unhelpful, and
:03:47. > :03:51.apparently adding later, you must've done something before walking away.
:03:52. > :04:00.He claims to know of other British doesn't have also been turned away.
:04:01. > :04:06.Some staggering figures, more than 120,000 visas were revoked during
:04:07. > :04:09.2001, and of those 900 have been pulled because of terrorism
:04:10. > :04:13.concerns. Do you think there is a danger being put out of context,
:04:14. > :04:25.because there are Visa forms you have to fill in before you can
:04:26. > :04:32.travel to America now, ETAs. Yes, is you can get to America and they can
:04:33. > :04:33.turn you back. The American homeland security department are not
:04:34. > :04:41.necessarily the friendliest people in the world. His ESTA was turned
:04:42. > :04:51.down, and what he subsequently got was a business and tourism Visa.
:04:52. > :04:55.Terry Ord. Stella Creasy has had a lot to say about it because a family
:04:56. > :05:03.in her constituency were turned away. Let's move onto the Financial
:05:04. > :05:16.Times, US banks hit by cheap oil as Opec warns of low time -- all-time
:05:17. > :05:21.low. That figure resonates, a low of $36 a barrel, given where it was
:05:22. > :05:26.just a year ago, quite a steep fall. The point of the FT story, and I am
:05:27. > :05:35.no economist and nor do I fully understand banking, but it seems US
:05:36. > :05:38.banks sort of set stress test scenarios for oil price falling,
:05:39. > :05:43.presumably so they remain solvent and they can trade and so on. But
:05:44. > :05:49.today it was like oil prices are about 55% below the level when the
:05:50. > :05:53.Federal reserve is set last year stress tests, the pointed it is much
:05:54. > :06:01.worse than they expected to be forced you are doing quite well
:06:02. > :06:09.there, David! Do I sound like I know what I'm talking about? Who you are
:06:10. > :06:14.depends on what cheap oil means. Good on the pumps, as David Cameron
:06:15. > :06:20.likes to say. Opec are predicting it took 25 years to go back to 2008
:06:21. > :06:25.levels of $100 a barrel. The good news is you have years of cheaper
:06:26. > :06:32.petrol for motorists, that news for a lot of the big oil companies, it
:06:33. > :06:36.has collapsed over the last few years and are unlikely to improve
:06:37. > :06:39.any time soon. These things are cyclical but it is predicting the
:06:40. > :06:47.span of that cycle I suppose is the trick. Another story you have
:06:48. > :06:55.spotted, trying to find the Christmas spirit on the streets of
:06:56. > :06:58.Paris. A city trying hard to move on from those awful terrorist attacks.
:06:59. > :07:08.What should be a busy time of the year for them. Hotel occupancy down
:07:09. > :07:17.by 30%, flight bookings down, business down by as much as 80%. In
:07:18. > :07:22.Europe, after the London Bombings in 2005, these things do recover. There
:07:23. > :07:27.is a short-term impact, I am sure in six months to a year's time, things
:07:28. > :07:31.will be much as they were. Still not great if you are there at the time.
:07:32. > :07:35.Difficult for the people living there as much as anything else. You
:07:36. > :07:42.saw the climate change talks, future levels of security, and we remember
:07:43. > :07:45.that in London. The deputy mayor says as much, it will get better but
:07:46. > :07:55.it will take some time. Again it would be surprising if it didn't.
:07:56. > :07:59.Several friends of mine have been in Paris over the last few weeks, and
:08:00. > :08:11.The Daily Telegraph, heart pill for would be quieter than usual.
:08:12. > :08:22.The Daily Telegraph, heart pill for half of Britons. The sub headline
:08:23. > :08:26.explains it better, experts say prescribing cheap medication for BP
:08:27. > :08:34.will save millions of lives. A lot of these stories are creeping up at
:08:35. > :08:39.the moment, more could be done. It is an example of what a lot of
:08:40. > :08:44.health care specialists say the should be a shift from reactive
:08:45. > :08:56.medicine to preventative health care. So boiled down, if something
:08:57. > :08:59.called systolic pressure, no, they -- for each drop in something or the
:09:00. > :09:03.other it is found to reduce the risk of heart attack by one fifth,
:09:04. > :09:09.strokes by a quarter, and death from all quarters by 13%. If that worked,
:09:10. > :09:13.although I imagine -- I imagine distributing this many heart pills,
:09:14. > :09:20.if it worked, I suppose it would save the NHS an awful lot of money
:09:21. > :09:24.in the long term. It follows on from the big stat in debate, how could
:09:25. > :09:28.they were, and now this is another drug. You are talking about
:09:29. > :09:32.medicalising a generation at a certain age, you start taking your
:09:33. > :09:37.pills twice a day. Actually, it could be an extremely good thing.
:09:38. > :09:42.They could even end up putting it in the water. Shall we have a little
:09:43. > :09:51.look at Christmas? It is soon. Back to the FT. A very Christmassy
:09:52. > :09:54.photograph of the Beatles, and this is of course because of the
:09:55. > :10:01.announcement today that fans of the Beatles will be able to listen to
:10:02. > :10:07.all 13 studio rounds on streaming sites. -- studio albums was that why
:10:08. > :10:13.has not happened before? There is a wonderfully catty quote from Mark
:10:14. > :10:17.Mulligan, a music industry analyst, who says the Beatles state is always
:10:18. > :10:20.fashionably late to the Digital party, so it seems they have form
:10:21. > :10:24.for dragging their feet when it comes to this. Although, as you say
:10:25. > :10:27.the picture is Christmassy, the Fab four gathered round a Christmas
:10:28. > :10:31.tree, but I can't think of any Beatles music that was particularly
:10:32. > :10:36.Christmassy. They didn't do Christmas on is, did they? Elvers,
:10:37. > :10:40.Bing Crosby, but I can't think of any Beatles Christmas June. They
:10:41. > :10:44.have done well to make this into a Christmas story. A really famous
:10:45. > :10:49.photograph, and I are wasting what an appalling Christmas tree!
:10:50. > :10:52.Completely out of shape. It looks really straggly and really badly
:10:53. > :11:00.decorated! Apart from that it is all right. I feel like sorting it out.
:11:01. > :11:03.Let's move onto the mirror. This is a bit worrying if you're going to
:11:04. > :11:08.pick up your turkey tomorrow, as many of you will be. Particularly if
:11:09. > :11:19.you have ordered it from M and S. That is a cue for a turkey. I have
:11:20. > :11:24.to say, my mum went to collect stuff from M today and so it wasn't too
:11:25. > :11:29.bad. In Beckenham, this is where the two-hour queue was, presumably
:11:30. > :11:36.everyone turned up at the same time to do exactly the same thing. Not
:11:37. > :11:43.great PR for Marks Spencer 's. People could have got there may be a
:11:44. > :11:49.little bit sooner. Leigh staff handed out mince pies to try to
:11:50. > :11:53.placate angry shoppers. The tweeters, and of course people take
:11:54. > :11:58.to Twitter in such instances, were not impressed even by the mince
:11:59. > :12:01.pies. They haven't really got to the bottom of what the problem is that
:12:02. > :12:06.is my understanding of MNS is that they give you an allocated time to
:12:07. > :12:13.pick up your food or your turkey? They were clearly willing to wait.
:12:14. > :12:19.Not much choice! To the Telegraph is top evidently plum pudding is no
:12:20. > :12:23.longer the star of the Christmas feast. I don't I have ever had plum
:12:24. > :12:29.pudding for the nor have I. This is entirely alien to my experience of
:12:30. > :12:32.Christmas. In Telegraph land, it has been a centrepiece of the Christmas
:12:33. > :12:37.feast since Victorian times apparently, but no more. For the
:12:38. > :12:40.first time, Tesco is on course to sell more single portions of
:12:41. > :12:43.Christmas puddings than family size ones but crucially these are
:12:44. > :12:47.chocolate -based desert, which are becoming more popular rather than
:12:48. > :12:55.plum pudding. Do you like brandy sauce? Though. I don't know anyone
:12:56. > :12:59.who does, but I love it. Brandy butter or brandy sauce? Brandy sauce
:13:00. > :13:04.is like custard basically. But you can't set it on fire? You can set
:13:05. > :13:07.the pudding on fire, let's hope we never end up on one of those cookery
:13:08. > :13:10.programmes because we will be useless! It will not be a great
:13:11. > :13:15.Christmas for a lot of people, particularly in Cumbria. The
:13:16. > :13:20.Independent with a picture that basically says it all. About the
:13:21. > :13:28.third flood in a month -- in a month for many people. That picture is
:13:29. > :13:36.from York. The Cambrian situation is pretty grim. We saw it on the front
:13:37. > :13:40.page of the eye. You get waterlogged ground and when you get fresh rain
:13:41. > :13:43.it just gets first is that the profile worse than it might have
:13:44. > :13:46.been had come on the dry ground and that is the problem you have got
:13:47. > :13:49.there. David, Oliver, many thanks for taking us through the newspapers
:13:50. > :13:56.will stop we will do it again in hour. Thanks to you as well for
:13:57. > :13:59.watching. We will be back at 11:30pm, and at 11, Moore on the
:14:00. > :14:00.clean-up in Cumbria and the warnings of further into, as well. Coming up
:14:01. > :14:11.next, Sportsday. Hello and welcome to Sportsday -
