:01:59. > :02:07.In the last few minutes it has been reported that an eejit at passenger
:02:08. > :02:09.plane flying from Paris to Cairo last night has crashed off the Greek
:02:10. > :02:11.islands. Flight MS804 had 56 passengers
:02:12. > :02:13.and ten crew on board, Most of the passengers
:02:14. > :02:18.were Egyptian. There were also 15
:02:19. > :02:20.French people and one Briton. The Airbus 320 left Paris
:02:21. > :02:22.at about 11PM yesterday evening It was scheduled to fly over
:02:23. > :02:30.the Adriatic and across Greece, arriving in the Egyptian capital
:02:31. > :02:32.soon after 3am. It went missing from the radar
:02:33. > :02:36.at 2.45am local time, with the first reports coming out
:02:37. > :02:41.about five hours ago. The plane was flying at 37,000 feet
:02:42. > :02:44.when it disappeared ten miles The last contact with the pilot
:02:45. > :02:49.was about ten minutes before Egypt's prime minister
:02:50. > :02:57.says search and rescue The French have offered planes
:02:58. > :03:07.and ships to help out. The Egyptian prime minister
:03:08. > :03:09.was asked if terrorism could be involved -
:03:10. > :03:16.he said no possibility These were the scenes at the
:03:17. > :03:19.check-in desk at Charles de Gaulle airport as the news emerged this
:03:20. > :03:26.morning. The eejit air flight took off from here hours earlier at
:03:27. > :03:30.11:09pm yesterday evening -- eejit air. The airline said there were 56
:03:31. > :03:43.passengers including one child and two babies, including ten crew on
:03:44. > :03:49.board MS804. The Airbus 820 was travelling from Paris to Cairo. It
:03:50. > :03:52.disappeared from radar about ten miles after entering Egyptian
:03:53. > :03:59.airspace of the Mediterranean Sea. The airline tweeted that flight
:04:00. > :04:04.MS804 lost contact at quarter to three, about 20 minutes before it
:04:05. > :04:08.was scheduled to land in the Egyptian capital. They said they had
:04:09. > :04:13.contacted the authorities. Search teams have been sent to the last
:04:14. > :04:19.recorded location, 30 to 40 miles north of aged's coast. According to
:04:20. > :04:24.one unconfirmed report, the captain of a ship about 150 miles south of
:04:25. > :04:27.the Greek island, reported seeing a flame in the sky. They have
:04:28. > :04:33.pinpointed roughly where they have seen it go down -- where they
:04:34. > :04:37.believe it has gone down, unfortunately the deepest part of
:04:38. > :04:41.the Mediterranean. My belief is there are ships, radar and a plane
:04:42. > :04:45.on the way to the crash site and so they are basically suggesting that
:04:46. > :04:50.it has actually gone down into the Mediterranean. As time goes by,
:04:51. > :04:53.Cairo International Airport has become a focal point, where families
:04:54. > :04:57.of the missing passengers have started to gather. They await news
:04:58. > :05:01.of their loved ones. We can speak now to our Paris
:05:02. > :05:08.correspondent Lucy Williamson who's The latest we are hearing is that
:05:09. > :05:15.they think this plane may have come down near the Greek island of car
:05:16. > :05:19.Paphos. What are you hearing? It has been quite confusing morning
:05:20. > :05:23.with the Egyptian authorities appearing to say one thing and then
:05:24. > :05:28.retracting and the Egyptian military denying they have had this distress
:05:29. > :05:32.signal sent to them. Now it seems that the bits of information we are
:05:33. > :05:35.getting are coalescing around the possibility that the plane has
:05:36. > :05:40.crashed into the sea but it is of course very early days still. Behind
:05:41. > :05:45.me the EgyptAir desk has just opened, I don't know if you can see
:05:46. > :05:49.but it is mobbed here this morning, people here in France obviously
:05:50. > :05:54.concerned for the French passengers on board the plane along with the 30
:05:55. > :05:59.Egyptian and many other nationalities of course. But also
:06:00. > :06:03.questions being raised here in front about what, if anything, might have
:06:04. > :06:08.gone wrong here at Charles de Gaulle airport where the plane took off. Of
:06:09. > :06:11.course we don't know yet whether the plane has crashed and what might
:06:12. > :06:14.have caused it but you can imagine at a tense time like this in France
:06:15. > :06:23.there are already questions being asked. What can you tell us about
:06:24. > :06:27.who was on board? 56 -- 66 people, one Briton amongst those other
:06:28. > :06:32.nationalities, mostly Egyptian, and some French as well as others, what
:06:33. > :06:38.can you tell us about those security personnel on board?
:06:39. > :06:41.We know that there were ten crew on board, and according to the reports
:06:42. > :06:49.from Egypt air there were seven cabin crew, seven crew, if you like,
:06:50. > :06:54.and three security officials. We are not clear yet exactly what role they
:06:55. > :07:00.played but that is one of the things that people are keen to pin down,
:07:01. > :07:04.what their role was and why they were on board, was it a regular
:07:05. > :07:09.thing? EgyptAir have had problems in the past, are hijacking back in
:07:10. > :07:14.March, another Egyptian airline was blown up over the Sinai last
:07:15. > :07:18.October, so eejit has had a rather bad year when it comes to airline
:07:19. > :07:22.security. Whether the security officials were a routine thing or
:07:23. > :07:26.whether they're a were something special and as I say that is the
:07:27. > :07:28.question, one of many questions being asked here.
:07:29. > :07:35.Our correspondent Sally Nabil is in Cairo.
:07:36. > :07:42.What is the latest you are hearing their?
:07:43. > :07:46.I am at Cairo International Airport where many family of the passengers
:07:47. > :07:50.have been arriving over the last hour. They looked distressed and
:07:51. > :07:55.heartbroken and they were reluctant to speak to the media, we rarely
:07:56. > :07:58.managed to speak to one of them and they complained about the lack of
:07:59. > :08:02.information and want the authorities to give them more information about
:08:03. > :08:07.what has happened. They are still waiting for more updates from the
:08:08. > :08:12.aviation authorities. Just a short while ago the Egyptian Prime
:08:13. > :08:16.Minister spoke to the media, when he was asked about the reasons behind
:08:17. > :08:23.the sudden disappearances that it was very early to make presumptions.
:08:24. > :08:27.He said they are investigating all possible scenarios and not excluding
:08:28. > :08:31.any of them. He said it might be a terrorist attack, who knows? They
:08:32. > :08:36.are still digging into the story and looking at all of the options. In
:08:37. > :08:42.less than four minutes from now the Ministry of civil aviation will hold
:08:43. > :08:47.a press conference -- hold a meeting with the families and we will have
:08:48. > :08:50.to wait and see what is happening but they are dismissing reports
:08:51. > :08:54.talking about the reasons behind the disappearance of the plane and said
:08:55. > :09:03.that media should stick to official statement issued by eejit air or the

:09:23. > :09:26.discovering that, but a military statement later totally denying the
:09:27. > :09:30.reports. So far we know that no distress calls were issued from the
:09:31. > :09:34.cabin crew, according to official statements. We understand as well
:09:35. > :09:40.that rescue and search operations are under way, the Army has already
:09:41. > :09:44.deployed aircraft and maybe ships to search the area where the plane is
:09:45. > :09:49.believed to have disappeared. Greece is helping as well, France has
:09:50. > :09:55.offered help, we understand the National Security Council will

:18:06. > :18:13.encouraging that the Government has put prisoners at the front of their

:18:18. > :18:24.soulful stock of prisons are not safe, it will not be possible for to
:18:25. > :18:30.rehabilitate. That was a snapshot we are looking at. How representative

:20:31. > :20:33.rehabilitation. I go in there and to the courses. When you come out none
:20:34. > :20:38.of the courses are helping me. Do they do courses inside? Why did
:20:39. > :20:50.they not help? You get the courses. When they come out
:20:51. > :20:54.of jail, they do not mean nothing. You go to the Jobcentre.
:20:55. > :20:58.I have done English, maths, painting and decorating.
:20:59. > :21:04.Quite a few courses. When I go to the Jobcentre, I have said, can you

:24:23. > :24:33.education and vocations. -- and numerous leave. You work with
:24:34. > :24:40.education in prisons. The prison 's education trust has been calling for
:24:41. > :24:44.a long time for reform to prison education. It is not just about a
:24:45. > :24:50.sick qualifications but it includes out. It includes a much wider
:24:51. > :24:54.aspect, addressing behaviours and attitudes, working with other
:24:55. > :25:00.people. All the skills you need to survive and cope in prison and after
:25:01. > :25:02.release. How widely is that happening?
:25:03. > :25:15.Half will reoffend within a year of release. It needs radical change.
:25:16. > :25:22.It is absolutely crucial. Education is a real driver for that. It is
:25:23. > :25:25.about engaging people in education. Often they have really bad
:25:26. > :25:31.experiences. The broad description of what you give would be different
:25:32. > :25:36.from the perspective most people have when the word, education, is
:25:37. > :25:40.first mentioned. Is that what you think will happen? I really hope so.
:25:41. > :25:45.Giving governors the freedom and flexibility to look at the needs of
:25:46. > :25:50.prison populations. Every prison is different. Prisoners who want
:25:51. > :25:57.on courses and have a career, actually they should be harnessed.

:26:03. > :26:07.Using things like arts and sports and
:26:08. > :26:14.releasing people on day release and college and going on placements, all
:26:15. > :26:21.of these things should drive a much bigger focus. One thing you cannot
:26:22. > :26:24.get around is about the criminal record and people being
:26:25. > :26:32.reluctant to give someone a second chance. The report
:26:33. > :26:39.I recognise it as understanding what prisons are like and how
:26:40. > :26:46.stitching bits together is difficult. Another important
:26:47. > :26:50.announcement the Prime Minister made is called banging the box in the
:26:51. > :26:54.civil service. You do not have to say at the first point whether you
:26:55. > :26:59.have a criminal record or not. People can see what you are like and
:27:00. > :27:02.judge you on your personality. It is really important that other
:27:03. > :27:05.employers do that. The Prime Minister said it to put down a
:27:06. > :27:15.challenge to other employers to adopt the same procedure. They were
:27:16. > :27:21.talking about education progression. He has done a lot of low-level
:27:22. > :27:25.courses. People want to progress to higher levels. If you're going for a
:27:26. > :27:29.job in competing against some of who does not have a conviction, you have
:27:30. > :27:33.something extra to offer an employer and say, I have a level three rather
:27:34. > :27:41.than a level two and I have this further experience. That will give
:27:42. > :27:45.you the edge. Housing is the main thing was that if you do not have
:27:46. > :27:49.someone stable with you, they move you back into the same area where
:27:50. > :27:53.you will be offended. It is appalling. I have been through the
:27:54. > :28:00.system so much. They have never, ever help me out. What do you say
:28:01. > :28:05.about that? More importantly a more relevant now
:28:06. > :28:11.is I am in an organisation run by mostly prisoners.
:28:12. > :28:16.disconnect, the announcements made in prison, everyone agrees broadly
:28:17. > :28:20.it is really positive but it still does not tackle the real key points.
:28:21. > :28:34.within four walls. The problem is, everybody gets out. If he has not
:28:35. > :28:41.had his key issues addressed, why other reasons you are here? I know
:28:42. > :28:45.Courtney did not get assessed. He still has not been assessed for
:28:46. > :28:50.mental health. On release there is a disconnect because there are 21
:28:51. > :28:52.different providers around the country that to rehabilitation
:28:53. > :28:58.within the community and they need to be shared. The governors need to
:28:59. > :29:03.have a stake in long-term rehabilitation. We need to be
:29:04. > :29:06.looking at that as not to separate organisations or five, it needs to
:29:07. > :29:12.be one. Someone needs to be in charge of getting the numbers down
:29:13. > :29:16.and really reducing reoffending. That is what so great about looking
:29:17. > :29:20.at the outcome focused measures. It is about looking at
:29:21. > :29:27.what is beyond the gate. If you start to say, you will be judged on
:29:28. > :29:30.a number of people who reoffend when they are released and the number of
:29:31. > :29:34.people with accommodation at the number of people going into
:29:35. > :29:37.education training, suddenly that becomes a big incentive for everyone
:29:38. > :29:45.to start looking beyond the gate and what will happen afterwards.
:29:46. > :29:47.Well, in a statement the Justice Secretary Michael Gove
:29:48. > :29:50.said prisons must do more to rehabilitate offenders.
:29:51. > :29:53.In a statement he said: "By trusting governors to get on with the job,

:35:41. > :35:43.about alleged extramarital activities has won his fight against
:35:44. > :35:49.the Sun On Sunday revealing his identity. Let's take you straight to
:35:50. > :35:51.the supreme court to listen in. Section 12 subsection four's
:35:52. > :35:58.reference to a privacy code is relevant to the children since MGN
:35:59. > :36:02.subscribes to the independent press and the scope which confirms editors
:36:03. > :36:05.must demonstrate an exceptional public interest to override the
:36:06. > :36:12.normally paramount interests of children. Fourthly, as to public
:36:13. > :36:17.availability. It is true that the story has been accessible on the
:36:18. > :36:21.Internet and social media. But if the injunction were to be lifted
:36:22. > :36:26.there would be intensive coverage of the story by the Sun On Sunday and
:36:27. > :36:31.there is little doubt by other newspapers, as well as unrestricted
:36:32. > :36:34.Internet and social media coverage. All of which would constitute
:36:35. > :36:39.additional and potentially more enduring invasions of the privacy of
:36:40. > :36:46.PDFs, his partner, and their children. Turning to other factors,
:36:47. > :36:51.if publication were permitted now, it would be likely to deprive a
:36:52. > :36:56.trial of any real purpose since all privacy by then would have been
:36:57. > :37:00.destroyed. Damages after the event, whatever their measure, would be
:37:01. > :37:05.unlikely to give any real consolation or redress to any of
:37:06. > :37:11.those involved. Bearing in mind all the circumstances, the court has
:37:12. > :37:16.come to the conclusion that the injunction should continue pending
:37:17. > :37:20.trial on the basis that first the absence on present evidence on any
:37:21. > :37:24.genuine public interest justifying publication means that a permanent
:37:25. > :37:28.injunction would be likely to be granted at trial, and second and
:37:29. > :37:37.interim injunction is appropriate to project -- protect PJS, his partner
:37:38. > :37:47.and their children pending a full trial which should not be rendered
:37:48. > :37:50.substantially relevant. The appeal will accordingly be allowed and the
:37:51. > :37:58.injunction restored and continued until trial or further order.
:37:59. > :38:02.The court is now adjourned. That was the ruling in the Supreme
:38:03. > :38:07.Court that means that the celebrity who wants to keep his name out of a
:38:08. > :38:11.tabloid newspaper story about alleged extramarital activities has
:38:12. > :38:16.won his fight to stop the Sun On Sunday revealing his identity. We
:38:17. > :38:18.heard the judge saying the editors must demonstrate exceptional public
:38:19. > :38:27.interest to override the paramount interest of children and said that
:38:28. > :38:31.was not the case in this particular case. He described relatively old
:38:32. > :38:35.sexual history and two young children involved here. The
:38:36. > :38:36.injunction remains in place. We will be talking more about that added
:38:37. > :38:39.later. Let's get more now on the EgyptAir
:38:40. > :38:41.plane which has gone missing One report says it's come down 130
:38:42. > :38:45.miles from the Greek The plane was flying
:38:46. > :38:49.from Paris to Cairo when it I can now speak to Simon Boxall,
:38:50. > :39:03.an oceanographer with Thank you for joining us. Tell us
:39:04. > :39:08.how easy or difficult it will be to locate wreckage if it has gone down
:39:09. > :39:13.in that area, as is suspected? If it has, it would be relatively easy to
:39:14. > :39:16.locate service wreckage. A very different scenario to MH370 which
:39:17. > :39:21.tragically went down over two years ago in the Indian Ocean. They have a
:39:22. > :39:26.fairly accurate pinpoint as to where the plane was last seen on radar so
:39:27. > :39:30.the search area is very small and of course it sits surrounded by
:39:31. > :39:33.reasonably close land, which means that ships, aircraft and helicopters
:39:34. > :39:43.can reach the scene relatively quickly. In the cage of MH370 it was
:39:44. > :39:46.two or three days for a ship to get there, by the time aircraft got
:39:47. > :39:49.there they only spent a short period of time on search, so it is a
:39:50. > :39:51.question of when rather than if they find anything from this particular
:39:52. > :39:56.aircraft. And how long do you suspect a search like this might
:39:57. > :39:59.take? It is difficult to say. There is an assumption that the
:40:00. > :40:04.Mediterranean is shallow, but the area it has gone down in is very
:40:05. > :40:08.rugged, up to three kilometres, nearly two miles deep, so it is
:40:09. > :40:12.still deep water and anything on the sea bed will take months to find and
:40:13. > :40:20.recover. But that is assuming it has gone down. It is very early to say
:40:21. > :40:24.yet. It is not a simple task but it is possible. What about conditions
:40:25. > :40:29.in the area? Those are factors that will be relevant in any search and
:40:30. > :40:33.rescue operation. We have heard that air traffic control report no
:40:34. > :40:37.serious weather issues. That does not tell us what the state of the
:40:38. > :40:41.sea is like, aircraft don't tend to worry about the state, and this area
:40:42. > :40:45.can whip up some big storms this time of year. I have worked out
:40:46. > :40:49.there and in the space of a few hours you can go from flat, calm
:40:50. > :40:53.seas to stormy seas quite quickly. The weather will not necessarily be
:40:54. > :40:58.that classic Mediterranean flat, calm sea, so that can cause problems
:40:59. > :41:01.but again it comes back to identifying what happened to the
:41:02. > :41:04.aircraft and then the search and rescue would be a relatively small
:41:05. > :41:10.area. They will get to the bottom of what happened. If and when the
:41:11. > :41:16.wreckage is located, if this is what has happened, will it be retrieved
:41:17. > :41:21.from the sea bed? What normally happens? We are looking at deep
:41:22. > :41:27.water so it is retrievable, if you think back to the problems BP had
:41:28. > :41:31.with the Gulf of Mexico spill, the water there was relatively shallow
:41:32. > :41:34.compared to the water here, so you are still talking about
:41:35. > :41:38.technological challenges, but it is possible, there is the tools and
:41:39. > :41:44.technology to work to these depths, so it is a question of mounting an
:41:45. > :41:48.exercise, assuming there is nothing on the sea bed, to recover from the
:41:49. > :41:53.sea bed, and we are looking here at the black boxes. And presumably an
:41:54. > :41:57.Operation Magnum 's would be very expensive, specialist undertaking?
:41:58. > :42:04.Very much so but of course there are a lot of countries and operation
:42:05. > :42:07.like this. It would be under the auspices of the extent -- to an
:42:08. > :42:12.extent of the EU as well. Thank you very much. Let's go back
:42:13. > :42:15.to the Supreme Court which has rejected an attempt to overturn a
:42:16. > :42:19.privacy injunction which prevents the identical occasion of as a
:42:20. > :42:24.liberty involved in an extramarital threesome in England and Wales. The
:42:25. > :42:28.court ruled it was private and there was no public interest despite
:42:29. > :42:36.intense coverage outside in America, Canada and Scotland. Sarah Campbell
:42:37. > :42:43.is at the Supreme Court. Tell us more about the reasons given in the
:42:44. > :42:48.judgment. This court case started off as a
:42:49. > :42:51.basic kiss and tell story, two individuals going to a national
:42:52. > :42:56.newspaper with details of sexual encounters with a married,
:42:57. > :43:00.well-known public individual, and it developed from there. In January of
:43:01. > :43:05.this year and injunction was put in place on the grounds of breached
:43:06. > :43:10.privacy, which meant nobody in England or Wales, no paper, no
:43:11. > :43:13.publication, could publish the name of that individual. What is
:43:14. > :43:19.different about this case is that the name was published in the United
:43:20. > :43:22.States, Canada and Scotland, and so what News group newspapers, who
:43:23. > :43:26.owned the Sun On Sunday, was arguing was that because effectively that
:43:27. > :43:31.was the case this injunction should be lifted, but by a majority of 4-1
:43:32. > :43:35.today the Supreme Court gave their judgment to say, no, that is not the
:43:36. > :43:39.case. Going through the reasons, this has always been a balancing act
:43:40. > :43:45.between the freedom of expression of the press, their right to do that,
:43:46. > :43:51.and the rights of the individual. In summing up the judgment, saying
:43:52. > :43:54.privacy interests, the publication would infringe the privacy rights of
:43:55. > :44:00.PJS, their partner and their children. There is no public
:44:01. > :44:04.interest in publishing kiss and tell stories or criticisms of Private
:44:05. > :44:08.sexual conduct. And with relation to this injunction and whether these
:44:09. > :44:12.injunctions work or not, this is interesting, it says, as to public
:44:13. > :44:15.availability it is true the story has been accessible on the Internet
:44:16. > :44:19.and social media but if the injunction were to be lifted there
:44:20. > :44:22.would be more intensive coverage, and he goes onto say that this would
:44:23. > :44:27.mean additional and potentially more enduring invasions the privacy of
:44:28. > :44:33.PJS, their partner and children. There is an ongoing legal court
:44:34. > :44:37.case, in the run-up to the court case looking at breach of privacy,
:44:38. > :44:43.so we now know that nobody should be able to publish the names involved
:44:44. > :44:48.until that court case happens. One of the four judges who did disagree

:44:53. > :44:56.not going to go away, injunction or no injunction, which gives a sense
:44:57. > :44:57.that even in legal circles this is a tricky issue.
:44:58. > :45:03.Thanks very much, Sarah. Let's talk now to Sara Mansoori QC,
:45:04. > :45:06.a leading injunction lawyer, who has represented football stars
:45:07. > :45:08.Rio Ferdinand, Ryan Giggs as well as Max Mosley,
:45:09. > :45:14.who used to be in charge Thank you for coming in, what is
:45:15. > :45:20.your reaction to the ruling? It represents a fundamental shift in
:45:21. > :45:25.the law of privacy, and it is a recognition by the Supreme Court
:45:26. > :45:29.that these injunctions protect not just secrets but also from
:45:30. > :45:37.unwarranted and unwelcome intrusion, where that intrusion is going
:45:38. > :45:47.When you say it is a fundamental shift in the law of privacy, define
:45:48. > :45:57.at exactly. It is a fairly new remedy that is available. It has
:45:58. > :46:01.come from the Law of Confidence. Once information is out in the
:46:02. > :46:05.public domain, it is no longer confidential. We have seen the
:46:06. > :46:09.definition of privity being explained so it does not just
:46:10. > :46:15.protect secrets but also protects from unwarranted harassment. One of
:46:16. > :46:28.the key factors cited by the judge is that they must demonstrate an
:46:29. > :46:32.interest to overwrite bashers mag they must demonstrate that children
:46:33. > :46:39.are paramount. -- they must demonstrate. This is a family right
:46:40. > :46:43.as well as an individual right. The other factor that was very important
:46:44. > :46:47.was public interest. The newspaper had failed to demonstrate there was
:46:48. > :46:51.any public interest in publishing this story. What it's all to do was
:46:52. > :46:55.say that there was public interest because you were correcting a false
:46:56. > :47:03.image this couple were presenting. It was found that was not the case.
:47:04. > :47:07.What would your expectation be? The threshold was raised for newspapers
:47:08. > :47:11.to publish and it is less likely that celebrities would seek
:47:12. > :47:15.injunctions or they are still likely... This is likely to continue
:47:16. > :47:21.and injunctions are likely to be sought. Will anything change
:47:22. > :47:25.materially? We will have to see what happens in practice. What we have
:47:26. > :47:29.seen is increased attention on the individuals who have sought this in
:47:30. > :47:36.junction. It may be that others think it is not worth it. -- this
:47:37. > :47:40.injunction. We will have to see what happens in practice.
:47:41. > :47:53.We will be live in Paris as Egypt and the British Royal Navy will hunt
:47:54. > :47:54.for the missing name. We will keep you up to date with all the latest
:47:55. > :47:58.developments. In 1939, with Europe on the brink
:47:59. > :48:01.of war, a British man - Sir Nicholas Winton -
:48:02. > :48:03.did an extraordinary thing. Aware of the growing threat
:48:04. > :48:06.from Nazis, he arranged for at least 669 Jewish children to be rescued
:48:07. > :48:09.from Prague and brought to England. Undeterred by bureaucracy in both
:48:10. > :48:11.countries, he worked tirelessly to find British families willing
:48:12. > :48:14.to look after the boys He died last summer at the age
:48:15. > :48:20.of 106, with the prime minister describing him as a "great man"
:48:21. > :48:25.and the chief rabbi praising his After the war, Sir Nicholas' heroic
:48:26. > :48:31.efforts were kept quiet for a half-century,
:48:32. > :48:33.until being revealed on Esther Rantzen's TV programme
:48:34. > :48:38.That's Life' in 1988. Vera Gissing is here
:48:39. > :48:40.with us tonight. I should tell you that
:48:41. > :48:43.you are actually sitting next to He is here tonight, so you too
:48:44. > :49:11.can thank Mr Winton. And I am another of
:49:12. > :49:37.the children that you saved. That was incredibly moving. It was
:49:38. > :49:45.the most moving TV seen in my opinion. You were one of the kids. I
:49:46. > :49:53.was not there. I did not know anything. You are saved thanks to
:49:54. > :50:00.him. Yes, he saved my life and the lives of my parents. I was always,
:50:01. > :50:09.is this real? I am sorry, I didn't know. I must introduce you as well.
:50:10. > :50:15.You are the son of Nicholas Winton. With great imagination he chose the
:50:16. > :50:20.same name. Your father did something so extraordinary. It is moving for
:50:21. > :50:29.everybody to watch. For you as a child, seeing your dad and knowing
:50:30. > :50:33.what he did how old were you? I was in my 30s. It was only when I saw
:50:34. > :50:40.that piece of film I realised the significance of what he had done. At
:50:41. > :50:45.that point, it was just fables and stories. I do not know about you. I
:50:46. > :50:49.did not pay a huge amount of attention to all the things my
:50:50. > :50:54.father said. I realised the implications of it. It was very
:50:55. > :51:04.moving. Still today I can get quite tearful watching it. How did he
:51:05. > :51:09.react? I think he had felt he had been hoodwinked. He thought he was
:51:10. > :51:13.going as an adviser for the story. He did not know there were these
:51:14. > :51:21.children he had saved in the audience. It was very much a setup,
:51:22. > :51:28.the way you guys in TV do it. You are going to a memorial service for
:51:29. > :51:35.Sir Nicholas. You have come from the United States. Tell us why you have
:51:36. > :51:40.travelled so far. I came straight from home, in Madison, Wisconsin. My
:51:41. > :51:48.family and I have lived there for 40 years since we left England in 1975.
:51:49. > :51:55.But that was also my second stay in England. I spent two times seven
:51:56. > :51:59.years here in this country. The first seven years were during the
:52:00. > :52:05.war. The second seven years were when the Russians invaded. The
:52:06. > :52:11.Russians with the Warsaw Pact armies. They invaded Czechoslovakia
:52:12. > :52:20.literally and physically. That is until we ran again and ran to
:52:21. > :52:28.England again. You were an H girl, living in Czechoslovakia. You put on
:52:29. > :52:35.a train. -- and eight-year old girl. What did you know about being sent
:52:36. > :52:39.away from your family? I knew a great deal. Comparatively more than
:52:40. > :52:45.many children. I am grateful to my parents for that. They were honest
:52:46. > :52:51.with me. I just had my eighth birthday when I left. Around the age
:52:52. > :52:57.of six and seven, things started changing in my life. I was an only
:52:58. > :53:02.child, we were Jewish but not particularly highly religious. I was
:53:03. > :53:10.very safe and secure and had loving parents. Particularly my mother was
:53:11. > :53:18.a very, very active and proactive and bright woman. She happened when
:53:19. > :53:21.I was about six, seven, to hear a speech and then read it in the
:53:22. > :53:27.newspaper by a member of argument from here, whose name was George
:53:28. > :53:34.Lansbury. He was talking about Hitler and telling the families that
:53:35. > :53:37.Hitler meant business. This was not just a question of perhaps an
:53:38. > :53:45.exiting Austria, which is what happened, or even an exceeding part
:53:46. > :53:54.of Czechoslovakia. -- annex thing. Hitler meant business and he was
:53:55. > :54:02.going to annihilate nations. Your family well understood what was
:54:03. > :54:06.going on. The chance you were given by being put on that train. When did
:54:07. > :54:10.you realise that Sir Nicholas Winton was the man who did that and that
:54:11. > :54:18.you effectively owe your life to him? I did not realise anything
:54:19. > :54:31.about him before the beginning of 1990. When this film happens, I
:54:32. > :54:43.think I knew. People ask, how come you didn't know who saved your life?
:54:44. > :54:51.He invented this organisation, which was called, the British committee
:54:52. > :54:56.for children from Prague. As he says in his DVD, he invited himself to be
:54:57. > :55:02.the president of this committee and he called a meeting with himself.
:55:03. > :55:08.There will be a great sense of humour but this is what he did. I
:55:09. > :55:15.have many documents, correspondence, with him. They were signed with a
:55:16. > :55:19.squiggle. At the bottom there was a stamp which said, the British
:55:20. > :55:25.committee for children from Prague. My mother assumed there was a
:55:26. > :55:31.network of people in Prague, who were trying to help children. She
:55:32. > :55:36.would say, we have another letter from the committee. It was not that
:55:37. > :55:44.they were ignorant or in different to the person who saved hours, the
:55:45. > :55:50.children. They felt there was a group, a network, or something. On
:55:51. > :55:57.his part he was working in London as a stockbroker. He went out of his
:55:58. > :56:03.way to help these kids, these families. What was he like? The
:56:04. > :56:06.first misconception is he did this single-handedly. He had workers
:56:07. > :56:11.staying in Prague while he was back in London. Without them it would not
:56:12. > :56:16.have been possible. He was the instigator of the project. In those
:56:17. > :56:21.days, the stock exchange closed at 3:30pm. He had the afternoon and
:56:22. > :56:26.evening is to work on this as a project. As a project, it was nine
:56:27. > :56:35.months of part-time work. Very intensive part-time work but it was
:56:36. > :56:41.a project for him. Tell us what he was like. His motto was, if
:56:42. > :56:49.something is not impossible, there must be a way of doing it. That is
:56:50. > :56:53.what drove him, I presume. Yes, and continued to in later life. He had a
:56:54. > :56:59.number of other projects where he was determined to make a difference.
:57:00. > :57:06.I am also picking up on some of his ideas, as she would expect. I am
:57:07. > :57:10.working on sorting the problem for generation rents, one of the big
:57:11. > :57:13.issues of today. He was determined that when something needed doing,
:57:14. > :57:17.get on and do it and do not worry about the niceties of whether it is
:57:18. > :57:24.right or whether the rules prohibit it. Just make sure it gets done.
:57:25. > :57:27.Good to talk to your both. You are off to the memorial service.
:57:28. > :57:37.Imminently. Stay with us for the latest lines
:57:38. > :57:44.out of Greece and Paris on the missing airline plane.
:57:45. > :57:56.Mixed fortunes today. There is some cloud, rain and some of us will have
:57:57. > :58:00.some sunshine. On the satellite you can see the extent of the cloud
:58:01. > :58:05.cover. It is a weak weather front heading east. The second one coming
:58:06. > :58:12.in is also producing some wet weather. Moving across Northern
:58:13. > :58:15.Ireland, it will fringe into western parts of England, Scotland and Wales
:58:16. > :58:19.as we go through the course of the day. In between there is some
:58:20. > :58:23.sunshine. We have bigger cloud out towards the east. Again some
:58:24. > :58:28.isolated showers. Cloud breaking up with sunny spells developing and the
:58:29. > :58:31.rain continuing to push through and out of Northern Ireland, moving
:58:32. > :58:34.across much of northern Scotland, north-west England, Wales and the
:58:35. > :58:38.south-west will stop this afternoon across Northern Ireland be one or
:58:39. > :58:45.two showers. -- and the south-west was to hear is the heavy rain moving
:58:46. > :58:49.across Scotland making good progress towards eastern areas by 4pm. There
:58:50. > :58:52.will be heavy rain across much of north-west England. Ranging over
:58:53. > :58:59.towards north-east England. Heavy rain over North Wales. Into East
:59:00. > :59:04.Anglia, Essex and Kent, variable amounts of cloud. Some thick enough
:59:05. > :59:09.for the odd shower but sunny spells as well. In the sunshine it will
:59:10. > :59:12.feel pleasant. Full south-west England and South Wales, the tail
:59:13. > :59:17.end of the weather front. It is fairly weak and the rain will be
:59:18. > :59:21.patchy in nature. In the evening and overnight, there goes the rain
:59:22. > :59:24.heading off into the North Sea. They'll be quite a lot of clout was
:59:25. > :59:33.some breaks in the cloud and clear skies. I overnight temperatures not
:59:34. > :59:38.too low for most of us we are looking at double figures. --
:59:39. > :59:42.overnight temperatures. Across Scotland and Northern Ireland, the
:59:43. > :59:47.far north of England, showers moving south across the Pennines. We could
:59:48. > :59:50.see one or two into South Wales. For most it will be dry and there will
:59:51. > :59:55.be some sunshine. Later in the day, it looks like we will see some
:59:56. > :59:59.coming into the West. The timing for the band of rain keeps changing. It
:00:00. > :00:02.will have a real impact on what is happening with the weather at the
:00:03. > :00:09.weekend. This is what we think at the moment. Through the weekend rain
:00:10. > :00:20.will be eastwards. The weather once again is looking unsettled.
:00:21. > :00:29.Hello, it's Thursday, it's 10am.
:00:30. > :00:30.I'm Joanna Gosling, welcome to the programme
:00:31. > :00:35.if you've just joined us- coming up before 11.
:00:36. > :00:38.The top story today - search planes and ships speed
:00:39. > :00:41.to an area off the Greek islands where a passenger plane
:00:42. > :00:55.people disappeared off radar in the early hours of this morning.
:00:56. > :00:59.They have pinpointed a relatively accurate area of where the plane was
:01:00. > :01:02.last seen said the surge area is fairly small and the area is
:01:03. > :01:04.surrounded by land which means ships and aircraft can reach the area
:01:05. > :01:06.quickly. Egypt's Prime Minister says they can
:01:07. > :01:08.not rule out a terrorist We will be live in Cairo
:01:09. > :01:14.and at Charles de Gaulle airport in France where families wait
:01:15. > :01:20.anxiously for news. Also today - one death every three
:01:21. > :01:22.seconds from superbugs, the latest blunt warning
:01:23. > :01:25.about the future unless there's urgent action to tackle
:01:26. > :01:29.antibiotic resistance. An EgyptAir passenger plane,
:01:30. > :01:33.flying from Paris to Cairo, has disappeared from the radar
:01:34. > :01:36.screens over the Mediterranean sea. Aviation officials in Egypt say
:01:37. > :01:38.they believe the flight crashed. Flight MS804 had 56 passengers
:01:39. > :01:41.and ten crew on board, Most of the passengers
:01:42. > :01:45.were Egyptian, there were also 15 French
:01:46. > :01:51.people and one Briton. The Airbus 320 left Paris
:01:52. > :01:53.at about 11PM yesterday It was scheduled to fly over
:01:54. > :02:01.the Adriatic and across Greece, arriving in the Egyptian capital
:02:02. > :02:05.soon after 3am local time. It went missing from
:02:06. > :02:07.the radar at 2am local time, with the first reports coming out
:02:08. > :02:09.about five hours ago. The plane was flying at 37,000 feet
:02:10. > :02:12.when it disappeared ten miles The last contact with the pilot
:02:13. > :02:16.was about ten minutes before Egypt's Prime Minister
:02:17. > :02:19.says search and rescue The French have offered planes
:02:20. > :02:26.and ships to help out. The Royal Navy says it is also ready
:02:27. > :02:36.to assist. The Egyptian Prime Minister
:02:37. > :02:38.was asked if terrorism could be involved -
:02:39. > :02:40.he said no possibility These were the scenes
:02:41. > :02:44.at the check-in desks at Charles de Gaulle airport as the news
:02:45. > :02:46.emerged this morning. The EgyptAir flight took off
:02:47. > :02:50.from here hours earlier The airline said there were 56
:02:51. > :02:55.passengers including one child and two babies,
:02:56. > :03:07.as well as ten crew on board MS804. The Airbus A320 was travelling
:03:08. > :03:09.from Paris to Cairo. It disappeared from radar about ten
:03:10. > :03:11.miles after entering Egyptian airspace above the
:03:12. > :03:13.Mediterranean Sea. The airline tweeted that flight
:03:14. > :03:17.MS804 lost contact at 2:45am, about 20 minutes before
:03:18. > :03:19.it was scheduled to land They said they had contacted
:03:20. > :03:32.the authorities. The majority of the passengers were
:03:33. > :03:38.from Egypt. There was one British citizen and 15 were French.
:03:39. > :03:41.TRANSLATION: The president of the Republic has held an urgent meeting
:03:42. > :03:45.with the Prime Minister and other ministers. The first priority is to
:03:46. > :03:50.inform the families. The Foreign Ministry crisis is operational. An
:03:51. > :03:51.emergency number has been provided and the families have been hosted at
:03:52. > :03:53.a hotel. Search teams have been sent
:03:54. > :03:55.to the last recorded location, 30 to 40 miles north
:03:56. > :03:57.of Egypt's coast. According to one unconfirmed report,
:03:58. > :04:02.the captain of a ship about 150 miles south of the Greek island
:04:03. > :04:06.of Karpathos reported They have now pinpointed roughly
:04:07. > :04:11.where they think it has gone down. Unfortunately it is the deepest part
:04:12. > :04:21.of the Mediterranean. My understanding is there are ships,
:04:22. > :04:25.boats and a radar plane on its way to the crash site,
:04:26. > :04:28.and so they are basically suggesting that it has actually gone down
:04:29. > :04:31.into the Mediterranean. As time goes by, Cairo International
:04:32. > :04:35.Airport has become a focal point, where families of the missing
:04:36. > :04:38.passengers have started to gather as they await news
:04:39. > :04:51.of their loved ones. We can talk to our transport
:04:52. > :04:55.correspondent Richard Wescott, who is here. They think they have
:04:56. > :05:00.pinpointed a possible crash site, what is that based on?
:05:01. > :05:03.It is based on radar, effectively. Every commercial aircraft brings out
:05:04. > :05:07.messages of where it is, the height it is, the speed it is, we can all
:05:08. > :05:11.look at that data on various apps and the data just stopped. There
:05:12. > :05:14.will also be lots of military radar around there, you cannot hide from
:05:15. > :05:35.military radar, it picks up objects in the sky and does not rely
:05:36. > :05:38.on the aircraft telling it where it is so there is a fair bet they would
:05:39. > :05:40.have spotted it if it stops sending signals but carried on flying
:05:41. > :05:43.because there is a lot of military in that sensitive area, Egypt,
:05:44. > :05:45.Greece, so on, so that is what they are basing it on, it effectively
:05:46. > :05:48.disappeared from the radar screens. What do they have to go on, at these
:05:49. > :05:50.early stages, as they start to look at what could have caused the
:05:51. > :05:53.plaintiff to severe? I have just been at a conference of
:05:54. > :05:55.air Accident Investigation does, 44 countries represented, and they said
:05:56. > :05:58.the same thing, they never jumped to a conclusion, it is critical. But it
:05:59. > :06:01.is significant that there does not appear to have been a distress
:06:02. > :06:05.signal and when you talk to pilots they say even in pretty bad
:06:06. > :06:10.emergencies you have normally got a chance to get some kind of distress
:06:11. > :06:12.call out, it is quite quick to do, you can punch in four numbers and
:06:13. > :06:38.press enter. They will be trying to control in an emergency
:06:39. > :06:41.first but there is normally time after that to at least tell somebody
:06:42. > :06:43.they are in trouble. That doesn't seem to have happened this time,
:06:44. > :06:45.which suggests something happened very, very quickly. The radar data
:06:46. > :06:48.stops when it was very high, does not show it coming down at all, so
:06:49. > :06:51.it all points to something happening quickly. That could literally be a
:06:52. > :06:54.hole in the aircraft, a fault with the aircraft, when it breaks up in
:06:55. > :06:56.the air. That is very, very red. It of course leads to the possibility
:06:57. > :06:58.as well that there could be at explosive device on board.
:06:59. > :07:01.We know there were three security personnel on board, is that unusual?
:07:02. > :07:04.Not for aircraft flying in those sorts of areas. The Americans have a
:07:05. > :07:05.lot of air marshals flying on board as well looking for suspicious
:07:06. > :07:08.people, people doing suspicious things, so it is not unusual but
:07:09. > :07:11.that is just people on board. It is quite possible if this was some kind
:07:12. > :07:15.of terrorist attacks, and we don't know it was, that there is nothing
:07:16. > :07:19.to the on-board. It is possible something could have been put on the
:07:20. > :07:23.aircraft at an airport it visited beforehand, so there would be
:07:24. > :07:27.nothing they could do. People like that are there to dis- incentivise
:07:28. > :07:31.attacks, and if someone tries to storm a cockpit those people come
:07:32. > :07:32.into their own, but it does not necessarily mean these things cannot
:07:33. > :07:40.happen. You can find the latest on this
:07:41. > :07:47.developing story on a special live bait on the BBC News website. We

:11:08. > :11:10.too often. William says, the idea of sending non-dangerous offenders to
:11:11. > :11:14.jail is outdated nonsense. Late in says, the main essential support
:11:15. > :11:17.should be from someone who follows the rehab programme with each
:11:18. > :11:21.prisoner then follows them outside also to closely help through the
:11:22. > :11:25.initial discharge period. Also, many prisoners would benefit better from
:11:26. > :11:29.community service rather than custody. Probation officers should
:11:30. > :11:31.have access to a variety of help agencies to do more than simply
:11:32. > :11:41.supervise. Kay says, the military prison has a

:11:52. > :11:56.allowed to because prison is meant to be punishment. OK, but if you
:11:57. > :12:00.want to help prisoners change their lives, why not use every possible
:12:01. > :12:03.thing to help, he asks? Kelly says, I'm watching your piece
:12:04. > :12:08.on prison reform and feel the problem starts way back into society
:12:09. > :12:12.in the way we socialise boys who are taught to switch off their feelings,

:12:18. > :12:19.Do get in touch with us throughout the morning -
:12:20. > :12:23.If you text, you will be charged at the standard network rate.

:12:31. > :12:35.have gone down near the Greek island of Karpathos en route from Paris to
:12:36. > :12:38.Cairo. We will be live with our correspondent in Paris in just a few
:12:39. > :12:42.moments. First, let's catch up with the sport.
:12:43. > :12:45.For many the cricket means summer's really here.
:12:46. > :12:48.England take on Sri Lanka at Headingley in less than an hour,
:12:49. > :12:54.Alastair Cook's men should be full of confidence after an impressive
:12:55. > :12:57.series win in South Africa over the winter.
:12:58. > :13:00.Let's speak to our correspondent Andy Swiss, who's in Leeds
:13:01. > :13:11.A big day for Captain Cook? That is right, the fans, as you can
:13:12. > :13:14.see, are starting to arrive here and they know they could watch a piece
:13:15. > :13:18.of cricketing history potentially today because Alistair Cook needs
:13:19. > :13:25.just 36 more runs to reach the 10,000 mark, in Test cricket, and if
:13:26. > :13:29.he does so he will be the first Englishman to reach 10,000 runs, and
:13:30. > :13:35.would also be the youngest ever player to reach 10,000 will stop
:13:36. > :13:38.Cook, 31 years four months old, six months younger than Sachin Tendulkar
:13:39. > :13:43.when he reached the 10,000 milestone. He would be just the 12th
:13:44. > :13:47.player in test history to get to 10,000 runs, joining the likes of
:13:48. > :13:54.ten dork, Brian Lara, router bit, and he says he is looking forward to
:13:55. > :13:58.the challenge. Great to try to score the 36 runs. I have just got to put
:13:59. > :14:02.that to bed now after this press conference and focus on doing what I
:14:03. > :14:06.have done I suppose in the previous ten years, which is trying to
:14:07. > :14:12.concentrate on that ball coming down and nothing else. If it is your day,
:14:13. > :14:16.try to go began to get a big score. Alistair Cook and his team should be
:14:17. > :14:20.confident after that Test series win in South Africa, also their
:14:21. > :14:24.impressive performance at the world Twenty20. There will be a debut for
:14:25. > :14:29.Hampshire captain James Vince, we expect him to bat at number five. As
:14:30. > :14:33.far as the weather, it is dry at the moment, a bit overcast, we expect
:14:34. > :14:37.rain later this afternoon but the fans here keeping their fingers
:14:38. > :14:40.crossed for something like a full-day's play.
:14:41. > :14:42.Thank you very much. Let's hope Captain Cook can fail to those
:14:43. > :14:49.10,000 runs. -- can fail. Don't forget you can listen
:14:50. > :14:51.to Test Match Special on 5 Live Sports Extra from 1025,
:14:52. > :14:54.or the BBC Sport website, where you can also watch
:14:55. > :14:56.in-play highlights. You can also download the BBC
:14:57. > :15:00.Sport App and set up wicket alerts. I hope you will be doing that,
:15:01. > :15:06.Joanna. Of course!
:15:07. > :15:08.Let's go back to our main news, the missing EgyptAir passenger plane
:15:09. > :15:10.which was flying from Paris to Cairo.
:15:11. > :15:13.It vanished from the radar screens over the Mediterranean sea.
:15:14. > :15:19.Some reports say it came down 130 miles of the Greek island of
:15:20. > :15:23.Karpathos, we hear that comes from a Greek boat operator who saw a flash
:15:24. > :15:28.in the sky in the area, that is being reported by Greek media.
:15:29. > :15:32.Ships, helicopters and planes are heading to that region, the Royal
:15:33. > :15:34.Navy says it has both in the area ready and willing to assist.
:15:35. > :15:36.We can speak now to our Paris Correspondent,
:15:37. > :15:38.Lucy Williamson, who's at Charles de Gaulle Airport.
:15:39. > :15:46.That is where the plane took off from. We also joined by selling the
:15:47. > :15:54.bill in Cairo, the destination which of course was not reached.
:15:55. > :16:04.Tell us the latest about what you are hearing. It is the long and
:16:05. > :16:08.frustrating wait for information. At the EgyptAir desk, families are
:16:09. > :16:18.waiting in a nearby hotel or at the airport. Help has been offered in
:16:19. > :16:21.the Mediterranean to search. Over and above the search and the
:16:22. > :16:26.question of where the plane has gone is the question of if it has indeed
:16:27. > :16:31.crashed, why it did so. There is already a spotlight on the security
:16:32. > :16:35.situation at Charles de Gaulle airport, the procedure the plane
:16:36. > :16:39.went through before it took off. All speculation at the moment before we
:16:40. > :16:43.know exactly what has happened to it. Certainly this is an airport
:16:44. > :16:48.which has received a lot of attention when it comes to security
:16:49. > :16:52.over the past few months. Standing here this morning I have seen
:16:53. > :16:59.several people walking around security, armed people walking
:17:00. > :17:05.around in groups, as is normal. Sadly, what is the latest you have?
:17:06. > :17:12.It is definitely a tragic moment for the families of the passengers. I am
:17:13. > :17:17.here in Cairo airport. Families have been arriving. They were distressed.
:17:18. > :17:21.They were huge pain and grief. I was speaking to an old lady a short
:17:22. > :17:24.while ago, her daughter was a stewardess on the flight. The lady
:17:25. > :17:30.was heartbroken and she was in tears. She spoke to her daughter
:17:31. > :17:34.last night and have heard no more. I woke up to the horrifying news. I
:17:35. > :17:39.came to the airport and have not been given any information. I know
:17:40. > :17:44.nothing. I have just been given a couple of phone numbers. Authorities
:17:45. > :17:49.said they would keep us updated. So far we know nothing. Egyptian
:17:50. > :17:53.authorities are expected. They are expected to hold a press conference
:17:54. > :17:57.in less than three hours from now for that they're going to give some
:17:58. > :18:01.information about what happened. So far, EgyptAir issued a statement
:18:02. > :18:07.dismissing all media reports that have been talking about the reasons
:18:08. > :18:14.behind the disappearance of this plane. It is very early to make any
:18:15. > :18:20.assumptions about why the plane has disappeared. Rescue and search
:18:21. > :18:22.operations are under way. They are trying to do all they can to clarify
:18:23. > :18:35.what has happened. Let's speak to air accident in the
:18:36. > :18:43.eight, Tony Cable. What do they have to go on? Not a lot at the moment.
:18:44. > :18:49.Possibly radar data. -- are accident investigator. They are saying that
:18:50. > :18:54.has suddenly been lost that is where an aircraft response to an
:18:55. > :18:57.interrogation from the ground was if you lose electrical power, certainly
:18:58. > :19:03.electrical power on the aircraft, that would disappear. There is still
:19:04. > :19:07.probably primary radar, the old-fashioned sort, where you send a
:19:08. > :19:12.radar beam out and you detect the Echo. If you had an in-flight
:19:13. > :19:18.break-up, you can on occasion on primary radar, one return becomes a
:19:19. > :19:24.number of returns with different pieces of the aircraft. That could
:19:25. > :19:31.be an indication. What other possible reasons for a plane
:19:32. > :19:35.disappearing at this stage? -- what are the possible reasons? You focus
:19:36. > :19:39.on the technical side, if there was a problem with the mechanics of the
:19:40. > :19:45.plane. Would there be a mechanical issue at this stage which could
:19:46. > :19:48.cause a plane to come down? There is a multiple number of possibilities.
:19:49. > :19:54.Only as evidence comes in will that be clear. I have been fairly --
:19:55. > :20:00.there have been fairly severe electrical problems on these planes
:20:01. > :20:08.in the past, plus all the radios. They have not been able to
:20:09. > :20:12.communicate. Is that communications? It depends how the loss of the
:20:13. > :20:19.systems are handled. It has not caused any accidents. The problem
:20:20. > :20:29.has been fixed. It has a pretty good safety record, hasn't it? Like all
:20:30. > :20:35.passenger aircraft a very good safety record. The dangerous bit is
:20:36. > :20:41.getting to the airport. How long is the investigation likely to take? Is
:20:42. > :20:48.the most important thing to get the black boxes? Yes. A bit daft to be
:20:49. > :20:53.carrying data, flight data, on the aircraft. If you do lose it,
:20:54. > :20:56.particularly at sea, you have got to recover the wreckage to get the
:20:57. > :21:04.black boxes and get the information. There have been proposals to
:21:05. > :21:12.transmit the data in real-time. Does that not happen? No, it is very
:21:13. > :21:18.primitive. It is quite conservative, the aviation industry in changing
:21:19. > :21:22.things. It takes a lot of doing. An air France plane went down in the
:21:23. > :21:26.Atlantic about five years ago and it took two years to recover to find
:21:27. > :21:36.the boxes. They were quite lucky with the two rain it landed on. Any
:21:37. > :21:39.Marine recovery tends to be prolonged and expensive and
:21:40. > :21:44.difficult. Parts of the Mediterranean are quite deep. I do
:21:45. > :21:53.not know about that area. We were talking earlier that it was around
:21:54. > :22:00.three kilometres deep. Thank you. We will of course keep you updated on
:22:01. > :22:07.all the devell and as we get them. Have you decided how you will be
:22:08. > :22:12.voting in the EU referendum? The first televised debate will be on
:22:13. > :22:15.the 26th of May in Glasgow, presented by Victoria. If you can
:22:16. > :22:21.get to Glasgow from wherever you are ready want to take part, e-mail
:22:22. > :22:26.Victoria to have your chance to question senior politicians from the
:22:27. > :22:31.Leave and Remain campaigns. The debate will be broadcast live. On
:22:32. > :22:35.the 6th of June we are in Manchester for another debate weeks before the
:22:36. > :22:42.actual vote on the 23rd. That is open to everyone take place during
:22:43. > :22:51.normal airtime between 9am and 11am. The way to get in touch is the same.
:22:52. > :22:57.There has been another extremely stark warning that the era of
:22:58. > :23:06.antibiotics will come to an end. It is claimed one person in three will
:23:07. > :23:11.die form a truck resistant infection by 2050 unless action is taken now.
:23:12. > :23:14.David Cameron commissioned the study a couple of years ago to look
:23:15. > :23:16.at the world-wide impact of illnesses like MRSA and TB
:23:17. > :23:21.as treatments like antibiotics become less effective.
:23:22. > :23:34.So why do we find ourselves in this position?
:23:35. > :24:46.Let's talk to Professor Laura Piddock, who advised on the report.
:24:47. > :24:48.Yvonne Smith, who lost her father to a superbug infection.
:24:49. > :24:53.Derek Butler, from charity MRSA Action UK.
:24:54. > :24:57.Sharon Brenan, a transplant patient and health journalist.
:24:58. > :25:07.And Professor Paul Cosford from Health from Public Health England.
:25:08. > :25:13.Thank you for joining us. Laura, first of all, you are a professor of
:25:14. > :25:21.microbiology. Explain why the drug resistance is happening. Bacteria
:25:22. > :25:26.evolved to survive all sorts of different hostile environments, and
:25:27. > :25:30.that includes antibiotics. Because bacteria double their numbers so
:25:31. > :25:35.quickly, something like E. Coli in 20 minutes. The numbers of drug
:25:36. > :25:41.resistant bacteria increase very rapidly, including inpatient or in
:25:42. > :25:47.the environment within a few hours. -- in patients or the environment.
:25:48. > :25:53.Where are we now in terms of antibiotic resistant bugs? We're in
:25:54. > :25:58.a situation where anywhere in the world there will be drug resistant
:25:59. > :26:04.bacteria, including multidrug resistant bacteria. The concern is
:26:05. > :26:08.that we, and animals, and our foods are transferring these around the
:26:09. > :26:13.world. When they cause an infection in people they can be very hard to
:26:14. > :26:18.treat. For many infections, it will mean the first, second and third
:26:19. > :26:24.choice drug does not work. For a few patients there may be no drugs that
:26:25. > :26:31.will work. Looking ahead to a possible future without antibiotics,
:26:32. > :26:34.what would that look like? Antibiotics and all areas of
:26:35. > :26:40.medicine. They are really important in the treatment of cancer patients,
:26:41. > :26:44.transplant patients, and those having joint replacements like hips.
:26:45. > :26:48.Potentially, we could see many treatments in those types of
:26:49. > :26:54.patients no longer being effective. But, most of us get infections in
:26:55. > :26:58.our lifetimes. Many times we have all had the past and we will all
:26:59. > :27:03.need them in the future. The real worry is that these types of
:27:04. > :27:10.drug-resistant infections could occur to any other at any time. You
:27:11. > :27:16.rely on take three different types daily. Why are you reliant on them?
:27:17. > :27:20.I was born with cystic fibrosis. Over time it ruins your lungs.
:27:21. > :27:26.Almost three years ago I had a double lung transplant. That means I
:27:27. > :27:30.am constantly immunosuppressed. Because of that my body finds it
:27:31. > :27:35.very hard to fight infections. I need and got it every day to try to
:27:36. > :27:40.reduce the chance of rejection or infection of my transplanted lungs.
:27:41. > :27:48.You must be acutely aware of the dangers of antibiotics, bugs
:27:49. > :27:52.becoming resistant to antibiotics. Many friends have made it through
:27:53. > :27:55.the transplant process, which is very hard, and then died five
:27:56. > :28:01.months, nine months later from chest infections they have not been able
:28:02. > :28:09.to treat. It is devastating. These people are 22, 24 years old. Let's
:28:10. > :28:15.speak to eve on Smith. Possibly the most famous drug-resistant infection
:28:16. > :28:19.is MRSA. Your father died from this infection and your mother almost
:28:20. > :28:28.did. Presumably it has made you aware of the risks of all of this.
:28:29. > :28:37.Yes. Absolutely. You know, my father died because it was like eight years
:28:38. > :28:46.beyond when my mother had the infection. I believe the drug
:28:47. > :28:52.resistance had become too much. His antibiotic treatment did not work.
:28:53. > :29:03.It worked for my mother and she has survived it. But my father was too
:29:04. > :29:07.poorly to survive. Sorry. I just wanted to bring in Laura at that
:29:08. > :29:13.point. What is it that makes the antibiotics work for one person over
:29:14. > :29:17.another? For some antibiotics, we know they were better when patients
:29:18. > :29:23.are fitter will have a better immune response. This is because it is
:29:24. > :29:28.thought that the ads were ticks damage the bacteria, not necessarily
:29:29. > :29:31.killing them, but they become more easily recognised by the immune
:29:32. > :29:35.response. We do not know why some patients respond and others do not
:29:36. > :29:40.when they have an identical infection. We do know those patients
:29:41. > :29:47.who are more vulnerable are more likely to be at risk. Derek, your
:29:48. > :29:54.grandfather, stepfather and uncle all died of MRSA infections and your
:29:55. > :30:04.chair of MRSA Action UK. How worried are you? I am very worried. My own
:30:05. > :30:09.father, 95, survived a very serious E. Coli infection. It shows the
:30:10. > :30:15.power, the success that antibiotics have. It is not about today's
:30:16. > :30:20.generation. It is about tomorrow's generation. Our children and our
:30:21. > :30:23.grandchildren will live in a world if we do not know something about it
:30:24. > :30:29.that my father did when he was a young person. He has explained what
:30:30. > :30:33.the world was like before the use of penicillin in the 1940s. I can
:30:34. > :30:37.assure you it is not a world we would like to live in. Most of us
:30:38. > :30:42.today have lived in an antibiotic era. Get an infection, we go to the
:30:43. > :30:47.doctors and they give us an antibiotic. That may not be a
:30:48. > :30:51.possibility in the future. Do you think we are heading to a future
:30:52. > :30:56.without antibiotics? This is a wake-up call. The report out today
:30:57. > :31:00.suggests there is some significant problems on the horizon if we do not
:31:01. > :31:04.act now. In addition to the things that have been mentioned so far, it
:31:05. > :31:08.is important to remember we camper van many infections. We sometimes
:31:09. > :31:14.forget the basic messages around washing your hands, covering your
:31:15. > :31:20.mouth and nose when you cough and sneeze. Teaching children basic
:31:21. > :31:26.measures. The winter flu vaccine, which this coming winter will be
:31:27. > :31:29.offering all children up to the third year of primary school, very
:31:30. > :31:33.important to stop infection spreading in our communities. We
:31:34. > :31:37.have good evidence as to the effectiveness. Remembering to use
:31:38. > :31:42.antibiotics appropriately. We know for instance that only 10% of sore
:31:43. > :31:48.throats need an advert it but 60% of people with a sore throat going to
:31:49. > :31:55.GPs will get an antibiotic. There are some simple things we can do.
:31:56. > :31:56.What do you think about GPs, in the majority of cases, prescribing and
:31:57. > :32:06.to objects that not needed? There is a significant issue there
:32:07. > :32:10.and it is partly making sure we get the right guidance to GPs... But it
:32:11. > :32:14.is not a new issue, why is it taking so long for the guidance to get
:32:15. > :32:18.through? We monitor continually what is happening and we can see where
:32:19. > :32:23.resistance is developing and alter our guidance accordingly. But there
:32:24. > :32:29.is something for all of us when we have a cough or a cold and a sore
:32:30. > :32:33.throat and we go to the GP, instead of expecting an antibiotic what it
:32:34. > :32:38.is sensible to do is expect an explanation for our symptoms. If we
:32:39. > :32:43.expect an explanation it allows the GP2 not just prescribed because
:32:44. > :32:47.there is that expectation... Where do the expectation come from, is it
:32:48. > :32:51.the patient wanting them or the GP handing them out because it is
:32:52. > :32:55.easiest? There is a complex set of things that happens when a GBC is a
:32:56. > :32:59.patient and they will be lots of those in any circumstance but there
:33:00. > :33:04.is something we can all do, which is to remember to do what we can to
:33:05. > :33:08.prevent infection, to get vaccinated, and to seek an
:33:09. > :33:13.explanation of our symptoms instead of seeking an antibiotic when we go
:33:14. > :33:16.to the GP. Laura, what do you think about the overprescribing of
:33:17. > :33:23.antibiotics and the statistic earlier about the use of antibiotics
:33:24. > :33:27.in farming? It is important to remember many of the infections from
:33:28. > :33:35.the pre-antibiotic era are still treatable today with the drugs we
:33:36. > :33:39.have, including many common sore throats. The reason health care
:33:40. > :33:42.practitioners use a lot of antibiotics if they cannot diagnose
:33:43. > :33:50.when the patient is with them what is causing the sore throat or other
:33:51. > :33:54.infection. 60% of patients get prescriptions from GPs when only 10%
:33:55. > :34:03.needed. The GP cannot distinguish the 10% from the other 50%. May I
:34:04. > :34:13.interrupt? Do come in there, Yvonne. I need to say some important things,
:34:14. > :34:23.really. If you can see me I would like to present a pair of vinyl
:34:24. > :34:32.gloves. Yes, we can see that. The whole issue of antibiotics is
:34:33. > :34:40.absolutely preventable, and it is preventable if you start from the
:34:41. > :34:44.beginning. What happens is that a nurse or doctor sneezes, they put on
:34:45. > :34:53.the vinyl gloves without washing their hands, you cannot touch gloves
:34:54. > :35:00.without using your hands. They haven't washed their hands. There is
:35:01. > :35:05.a very, very simple procedure called scrubbing up which a lot of nurses
:35:06. > :35:11.and doctors don't actually do. Let's get Paul's response on that. Sorry,
:35:12. > :35:16.we will come back to you, Laura." Of course MRSA and can unless in
:35:17. > :35:20.hospitals is an important issue. It is important to remember rates of
:35:21. > :35:25.MRSA have virtually halved over the last ten years, and indeed when I
:35:26. > :35:30.was medical director in the East of England some years ago we managed to
:35:31. > :35:36.reduce our rates of Clostridium difficile by over 90% in a year, and
:35:37. > :35:40.that carried on, so the point Yvonne is making are important and
:35:41. > :35:43.hospitals are working hard to make sure of that. Have those rates come
:35:44. > :35:49.down because of the hygiene issues that Yvonne is talking about? That
:35:50. > :35:54.is part of the answer but we mustn't be complacent and we know that we
:35:55. > :35:59.must continue to observe very carefully and investigate any case
:36:00. > :36:02.of MRSA and seed death very carefully and there are other
:36:03. > :36:08.organisms we are concerned that we are monitoring as well, one that is
:36:09. > :36:14.particularly difficult to pronounce which we are monitoring at the
:36:15. > :36:17.moment and we make sure our hospitals no when they have that and
:36:18. > :36:21.can take all the actions they need it in respect of those. It is a
:36:22. > :36:25.complex system, hospitals are very focused on this but they are complex
:36:26. > :36:31.and difficult to make sure we get right. Laura, you wanted to say
:36:32. > :36:38.something? The first point of the review report today is to increase
:36:39. > :36:42.public awareness across the globe about how important antibiotics are
:36:43. > :36:47.and of the really important part that the public have to play in
:36:48. > :36:50.preventing infection and preventing transmission of drug-resistant
:36:51. > :36:56.bacteria. We are getting focused on MRSA here but the report does not
:36:57. > :37:00.focus on MRSA, it calls attention much more to negative bacteria
:37:01. > :37:04.infections which often people will carry these bugs in their gut
:37:05. > :37:08.without any knowledge that they are there, and it is only when they
:37:09. > :37:14.perhaps need a procedure that then it causes an infection that then
:37:15. > :37:18.requires treatment. On that, a final board from you, Sharon, because it
:37:19. > :37:22.is presumably something you are aware of every day, hoping the
:37:23. > :37:27.people around you are aware of hygiene issues because you are
:37:28. > :37:31.potentially vulnerable? The thing with antibiotic resistance, it is
:37:32. > :37:34.easy to think when you are ill that you need antibiotics, to get back to
:37:35. > :37:38.work, to look after your children, and I think to solve this and raise
:37:39. > :37:42.awareness globally it is about seeing us as a community,
:37:43. > :37:45.antibiotics is a precious communal resource and if we do not treat it
:37:46. > :37:49.like that then the future could be very bleak. Thank you all very much
:37:50. > :37:55.for your thoughts. Let's catch up with the sport.

:39:40. > :39:43.there you go. It shows their souls converging on what is thought
:39:44. > :39:48.potentially to be that crash zone in the Mediterranean Sea. It is just
:39:49. > :39:56.near to the Greek island of Karpathos. The Egypt air passenger
:39:57. > :40:00.plane from Paris to Cairo was carrying 56 passengers and ten crew,
:40:01. > :40:05.it vanished from radar screens in the early hours of the morning.
:40:06. > :40:09.There are reports that it came down 130 miles off the Greek island of
:40:10. > :40:15.Karpathos. As you can see on these radar images, that is where the
:40:16. > :40:17.vessels are headed, the Royal Navy saying it is in the area and ready
:40:18. > :40:20.to assist. Let's talk now to Captain Mike
:40:21. > :40:22.Vivian, a former head of Flight Operations
:40:23. > :40:34.at the Civil Aviation Authority. We can also go to aviation analyst
:40:35. > :40:38.Sean Massenet. Captain Mike Vivian, what are your
:40:39. > :40:44.thoughts? We have little to go on, just the fact the plane went off the
:40:45. > :40:50.radar at 37,000 feet, not far short of its final destination? That is
:40:51. > :40:57.right, good morning to you. Very unusual, the safest part of the
:40:58. > :41:00.flight is of course at Cruise, high altitude, and it tends to point
:41:01. > :41:07.towards some either catastrophic failure of the aircraft or a
:41:08. > :41:11.security issue involving the aeroplane itself, and I note this
:41:12. > :41:15.aircraft had been traversing the north Africa and continent in the
:41:16. > :41:19.days before this incident so there will be an examination of what went
:41:20. > :41:23.on at Paris Charles de Gaulle, security measures there and all the
:41:24. > :41:28.other issues like the crew, the passengers, and the service history
:41:29. > :41:31.of the aircraft. Elaborate more on what you are thinking when you talk
:41:32. > :41:36.about traversing the African continent in the days before? It is
:41:37. > :41:43.possible, I wouldn't want to cause too much alarm, but it is possible
:41:44. > :41:46.some device was secreted there in some way or another, an extension of
:41:47. > :41:54.what happened at Sharm el-Sheikh with Metrojet. It is a possibility.
:41:55. > :41:58.We also need to look at the security at Paris. I know people are saying
:41:59. > :42:03.security at Paris is obviously beefed up after the incident they
:42:04. > :42:08.have had but it is significant, in my book, that after the Sharm
:42:09. > :42:13.el-Sheikh disaster, I think it was over 80 people who had what is
:42:14. > :42:18.called air side passes, passes to go bare fight onto the tarmac of the
:42:19. > :42:21.aircraft, were withdrawn by the French authorities. That would raise
:42:22. > :42:25.some questions as to why they were there in the first place, but it
:42:26. > :42:32.does tend to suggest the French took action after the Sharm el-Sheikh, as
:42:33. > :42:38.was necessary. So how would you sum up airline airport security, because
:42:39. > :42:44.there are tight controls around passengers, where would you see
:42:45. > :42:49.potential loopholes? The problem in the past has been safety, and that
:42:50. > :42:52.problem, I don't want to be complacent, but by and large it is
:42:53. > :42:58.solved because we have an incredibly safe industry. Last year there were
:42:59. > :43:07.something like 3.3 billion passengers, 36.5 million passengers,
:43:08. > :43:13.a tiny, tiny fraction, about 100 people lost their lives, so the
:43:14. > :43:18.problem is security and it is right to say security is not consistent
:43:19. > :43:19.throughout the world despite international regulations,
:43:20. > :43:24.requirements and audits to check that it is, and there has been
:43:25. > :43:30.concern, which the Sharm el-Sheikh accident raised, of the possibility
:43:31. > :43:34.of an inside job, in other words people who have access to the
:43:35. > :43:39.aircraft or luggage on the ground and are able to do things which none
:43:40. > :43:44.of us would want to be party to. That is the problem in ensuring a
:43:45. > :43:48.uniform level of security. I'm not saying that was the issue here in
:43:49. > :43:53.this accident involving EgyptAir but it is an issue which has once again
:43:54. > :43:57.had the spotlight put on it. Sean Moffat, what are your thoughts? I
:43:58. > :44:02.could not disagree with anything Captain Vivian has said. There are
:44:03. > :44:08.quite a wide variety of possibilities here. We don't know,
:44:09. > :44:12.probably the local militaries know a lot more than we do, there is an
:44:13. > :44:15.awful lot of minatory in that part of the of the world, the Egyptians
:44:16. > :44:21.themselves, the Israelis, the Greeks, the Turks, and we hear the
:44:22. > :44:24.Royal Navy is involved in the search, and also American fleets, so
:44:25. > :44:27.all of those will probably have a rather better idea of what happened
:44:28. > :44:33.here than anybody else, but of course we will not be hearing those
:44:34. > :44:37.ideas from them, I suspect. Mike was saying that the safest time on a
:44:38. > :44:42.plane is when it is cruising at high altitude. It was doing that when it
:44:43. > :44:48.came down. For you, therefore, would it point most likely to some sort of
:44:49. > :44:53.terrorist incident? Well, I suspect that is probably the case but really
:44:54. > :44:59.it is very early to be speculating about this. As you say, the aircraft
:45:00. > :45:06.was at its Cruise, 37,000 feet, Cruise level. It was flying at more
:45:07. > :45:10.than 500 knots, Cruise speed, and then it just disappeared off the
:45:11. > :45:13.kind of radar that you and I can look at on our computer screens.
:45:14. > :45:19.That does not mean to say the aircraft is Sapp has disappeared,
:45:20. > :45:22.because that trace on the radar screens comes from equipment on
:45:23. > :45:26.board the plane -- bag with the aircraft itself has disappeared. The
:45:27. > :45:29.plane has to be sending out the information for that price to
:45:30. > :45:33.appear. It is possible, as has happened in the past, that somebody
:45:34. > :45:36.has turned off that equipment, hijackers have done that in the
:45:37. > :45:40.past, and then the aeroplane effectively disappears. We are not
:45:41. > :45:44.talking about what is generally known as the real radar that fires
:45:45. > :45:48.the signal from the ground or the sea and gets the reflections back of
:45:49. > :45:51.the admin, that probably wasn't available to the controllers, that
:45:52. > :45:54.it might have been available to the military in the area who may have a
:45:55. > :45:57.better idea, but of course, as you have said, we are seeing the ships
:45:58. > :46:08.converging on a particular area. There are reports there was a brief
:46:09. > :46:13.distress signal but now it appears there was not one at all. How easy
:46:14. > :46:21.is it for a pilot if there is a sign of anything to very quickly send an
:46:22. > :46:26.alert? There is an order of priorities as to what to do if you
:46:27. > :46:31.have an emergency. The communication is about third in that. You are told
:46:32. > :46:36.to retain control of the aircraft, which is the most important thing,
:46:37. > :46:42.and then to navigate accordingly, to leave the area you are in and
:46:43. > :46:47.communicate that distress. Whatever it is that is causing you to take
:46:48. > :46:54.the action you are. It is not top priority. Insofar as there is a
:46:55. > :46:59.report about the beacon or distress call, I disagree there was a
:47:00. > :47:04.distress call. If there was a distress signal, it would have come
:47:05. > :47:09.from a beacon or device that was employed when a device impact water
:47:10. > :47:17.or the ground and send off a signal to locate it. It may or may not be
:47:18. > :47:21.the case. I agree that there will be sufficient and extensive radar
:47:22. > :47:26.coverage. When I was flying over this area, you are always under
:47:27. > :47:30.radar cover. It is a very heavily congested area and a very
:47:31. > :47:35.militarised area. People are watching with interest as to what is
:47:36. > :47:41.going on. Yes, definitely, there will be some radar data. As to when
:47:42. > :47:49.the signal disappeared off radar is open to question. It may be the
:47:50. > :47:52.aircraft broke up in the air and came down in pieces or it may be
:47:53. > :47:55.that the radar was lost but it's still descended. Then the signal was
:47:56. > :47:57.lost as it impacted the water, I do not know. We will have to see what
:47:58. > :48:00.they are saying. Last November new guidelines
:48:01. > :48:03.were issued about how the medical profession should deal with women
:48:04. > :48:05.going through the menopause - six months on, the British Menopause
:48:06. > :48:08.Society says it's still not seeing A survey released today shows that
:48:09. > :48:12.half of women will go through the menopause without seeing
:48:13. > :48:14.a single medical professional. Only 3% of women know
:48:15. > :48:17.about the guidelines, published by Nice -
:48:18. > :48:19.the National Institute for Health Many menopausal women will get
:48:20. > :48:24.sleeplessness, hot flushes, night sweats and memory loss
:48:25. > :48:26.and we've heard some women are so desperate
:48:27. > :48:29.to relieve their symptoms, they've even turned
:48:30. > :48:39.to unregulated treatments. In Shrewsbury we've got
:48:40. > :48:41.Julie Chandler who went through a surgical menopause
:48:42. > :48:42.at an early age. And Jayne Harrison's at her home
:48:43. > :48:45.in the Peak District - if you don't mind me saying so,
:48:46. > :48:50.you're currently going You're helping other women on how to
:48:51. > :49:03.deal with symptoms that work. Let's talk in our studio
:49:04. > :49:06.to Dr Heather Currie - she's a gynaecologist and also Chair
:49:07. > :49:17.of The British Menopause Society, The menopause affects women
:49:18. > :49:24.differently. The key underlying process is our ovaries stop working
:49:25. > :49:29.or in some cases are removed. That leads to our bodies becoming low in
:49:30. > :49:35.a very important hormone, oestrogen. While the focus of menopause is on
:49:36. > :49:39.periods stop paying and the expected consequences of that, flashes and
:49:40. > :49:43.sweats, what we want more people to know about is the effects of the
:49:44. > :49:47.lack of oestrogen which often stop with flashes and sweats but other
:49:48. > :49:52.symptoms, as you have mentioned, but also have later health consequences
:49:53. > :49:59.as well, particularly relating to bone and heart health. Only half the
:50:00. > :50:04.women going through it can seek professional help. Can women skate
:50:05. > :50:09.through and not receive any symptoms. A third of women felt they
:50:10. > :50:14.had to put up with it. They did not have a sense of seeking more
:50:15. > :50:19.information. Around that is the lack of understanding of the late effects
:50:20. > :50:26.of being low on oestrogen. So, everyone should seek treatment
:50:27. > :50:30.because of the long-term effects. Everyone should have a better
:50:31. > :50:34.understanding about this process of becoming low on oestrogen and how it
:50:35. > :50:37.can effect them. What they do about it is individual. There are
:50:38. > :50:41.treatments which are very effective but also diet and lifestyle changes
:50:42. > :50:45.are really important. The whole purpose of this campaign is to raise
:50:46. > :50:49.awareness of the importance but also to encourage women just to get more
:50:50. > :50:53.information so that however they choose to manage their menopause, it
:50:54. > :51:00.is an informed choice based on accurate information. I want to talk
:51:01. > :51:03.about those options in a moment. Want to go to Jane because you are
:51:04. > :51:09.50 and you are going through the menopause right now. How is it
:51:10. > :51:18.affecting you? When were you first aware that things were changing for
:51:19. > :51:21.you? I was probably about 47 and I probably did not realise
:51:22. > :51:25.straightaway it was the menopause. There were a number of other changes
:51:26. > :51:34.going on in my life and I thought it was the impact of that. Then, I
:51:35. > :51:38.would be waking up about three o'clock in the morning for about six
:51:39. > :51:42.to 12 months. I had very little sleep and it was impacting on my
:51:43. > :51:48.business and that is when I talked it over with a friend who said, it
:51:49. > :51:53.could be the menopause. I felt quite young internally, so I thought,
:51:54. > :51:56.really? It was at that point I went to the doctor and discuss some of my
:51:57. > :52:03.symptoms. Absolutely it was the menopause. I am in constant contact
:52:04. > :52:09.with my doctor now to ensure that my medication is correct. So I am not
:52:10. > :52:16.on HRT currently but we might get to that stage eventually. You are
:52:17. > :52:25.managing it, are you? Ayew at a stage where the symptoms not impact
:52:26. > :52:31.on you? -- are you at? I have made some changes to my lifestyle. I am
:52:32. > :52:37.out exercising a lot more. I have also changed my diet. I have gone
:52:38. > :52:48.from vegetarian too full of Egan. It has a high oestrogen content in
:52:49. > :52:53.soya. -- vegetarian to the Egan. What they do not tell you about is
:52:54. > :52:57.the impact it will have on your identity. Going from somebody who
:52:58. > :53:02.was really energetic and working 60 hours a week, being able to
:53:03. > :53:10.articulate really well in front of clients, to becoming some quite
:53:11. > :53:15.quiet, introverted, very low mood, and not being able to string a
:53:16. > :53:18.sentence together sometimes as well. Those have a significant impact if
:53:19. > :53:24.you work at a particular level in business. Those sorts of things were
:53:25. > :53:30.not discussed actually with the doctor, interestingly. You are just
:53:31. > :53:34.43 but you went through the menopause very early because you had
:53:35. > :53:41.your ovaries removed. That meant overnight US hit with the menopause.
:53:42. > :53:46.How did that impact on you? That was really hard. I had my ovaries
:53:47. > :53:51.removed when I was 39. Menopause was a long way from my thoughts at that
:53:52. > :53:54.time. Even though I had been told to expect to go through the menopause,
:53:55. > :54:01.I do not feel I was prepared for the impact. When your hormones tail off
:54:02. > :54:04.generally because of getting older and approaching the menopause
:54:05. > :54:09.naturally, for me, one day everything was fine. The next day I
:54:10. > :54:14.had no oestrogen of my own and the symptoms hit me incredibly hard. The
:54:15. > :54:19.hardest part was the night sweats, the way it affected my sleep. I was
:54:20. > :54:23.literally tossing and turning the entire night tried to find a cold
:54:24. > :54:29.patch on my pillow to cool down my face. I was on fire, I felt like I
:54:30. > :54:33.was on fire. The husband put a ceiling fan in the bedroom to try to
:54:34. > :54:39.help but it did not touch the symptoms. They did not want to give
:54:40. > :54:43.me HRT. I asked for it having tried so many other over-the-counter
:54:44. > :54:51.natural remedies. Nothing did anything for me. Despite spending a
:54:52. > :54:53.fortune I was getting nowhere. The lack of sleep was affecting me at
:54:54. > :54:56.work and at home, my concentration. In the end I said, if you do not
:54:57. > :55:06.give me something, I will crash the car because I cannot function. Did
:55:07. > :55:15.you get something? I was referred to a genetic counsellor because of my
:55:16. > :55:18.risk of breast and the varying cancer -- ovarian cancer. The letter
:55:19. > :55:23.was written saying I was going to be having a double mastectomy. Although
:55:24. > :55:31.HRT is associated with a slight increased risk of breast cancer, I
:55:32. > :55:35.was doing the ultimate thing to drastically reduce my risk of breast
:55:36. > :55:39.cancer. The very small increase for just a few months before I had the
:55:40. > :55:43.other surgery, by having HRT, was fine for them it was perfectly
:55:44. > :55:47.acceptable. Within a couple of days of having HRT I was normal again.
:55:48. > :55:56.Life could resume and it was fantastic. That is good. I know you
:55:57. > :56:03.are concerned about unregulated treatments. What is the issue there?
:56:04. > :56:12.Women are not expecting symptoms. If they want to seek treatments, there
:56:13. > :56:16.is a perception that HRT is risky. Many women have put off going to the
:56:17. > :56:22.doctor because they think all that will happen is they are prescribed
:56:23. > :56:26.HRT. As we have said, there is lots more around managing menopause and
:56:27. > :56:29.diet and lifestyle are hugely important. Hormone replacement
:56:30. > :56:34.therapy is the most effective treatment. For the majority of women
:56:35. > :56:37.it has more risks and more benefits. What there has been increasing
:56:38. > :56:45.interest in is looking at some unregulated therapies. These are bio
:56:46. > :56:49.identical therapies, products obtained from some pharmacies where
:56:50. > :56:54.there is not the same standardisation and regulation of
:56:55. > :57:01.the contents of the products. Is it supposed to be a more natural
:57:02. > :57:04.version of HRT? The point of HRT is to give back oestrogen. The
:57:05. > :57:09.consequences for the effects and impact on social and work life that
:57:10. > :57:13.the lack of oestrogen can have, we have heard about. The whole point of
:57:14. > :57:18.HRT is to give back oestrogen. We can do that in very natural low-dose
:57:19. > :57:23.preparations aiming to mimic the oestrogen we used to produce. For
:57:24. > :57:29.some, that is still seen as a drug is still seen as being associated
:57:30. > :57:33.with risk. These preparations are also using similar types of
:57:34. > :57:39.oestrogen but not in a regulated way. To take the treatments that are
:57:40. > :57:43.very natural and safe and mimic our own hormones, we can do that in
:57:44. > :57:50.prescribed ways without going to unregulated sources. Soya milk and
:57:51. > :57:59.of Egan diet, that was mentioned there. -- a vegan diet. This is all
:58:00. > :58:05.useful stuff. Not smoking and cutting down alcohol, it can all
:58:06. > :58:08.help in managing the early symptoms getting confidence and self-esteem
:58:09. > :58:16.back and it can help later health problems. Thank you very much.
:58:17. > :58:27.The missing EgyptAir plane will be discussed. I will be back tomorrow.
:58:28. > :58:30.Have a good afternoon.
