:02:03. > :02:10.Here's our correspondent Richard Lister.
:02:11. > :02:15.She will hope the blustery conditions aren't a portent for the
:02:16. > :02:18.meeting to come. Washington has rolled out the red carpet for
:02:19. > :02:23.Theresa May but the Prime Minister will have to tread carefully with a
:02:24. > :02:26.controversial President who is used to getting his own way. Her priority
:02:27. > :02:33.is to lay the groundwork for a trade deal with the US to counterbalance
:02:34. > :02:38.Britain's departure from the EU. On the key side in Liverpool cars
:02:39. > :02:40.bound for the United States and construction equipment too.
:02:41. > :02:44.President Trump has promised a building boom and Britain wants a
:02:45. > :02:47.part of that. For us as a company if we can get a slice of that we can
:02:48. > :02:51.export the goods that he needs to carry on with that construction he
:02:52. > :02:53.is looking at. Britain's trading relationship with
:02:54. > :02:59.the United States is already a healthy one. The value of our
:03:00. > :03:04.exports to the US is ?45 billion. That's a fifth of UK global exports
:03:05. > :03:09.and we sell them more than we buy with imports totalling 35 billion,
:03:10. > :03:12.we export more to the US than we do to any other country. But we are
:03:13. > :03:18.only America's fifth biggest market. We need them more than they need us.
:03:19. > :03:22.In his first week as President, Donald Trump has said repeatedly his
:03:23. > :03:27.strategy will be buy American, hire American. And although he wants
:03:28. > :03:33.bilateral trade deals they'll come with conditions attached. We want to
:03:34. > :03:38.deal with the ones that treat us well and finance they don't treat us
:03:39. > :03:43.well we terminate for give them a notice and if they want to negotiate
:03:44. > :03:47.we get a better deal. Until we leave the EU only Brussels can make UK
:03:48. > :03:52.trade deals. The Chancellor's there today and he accepted Britain's
:03:53. > :03:56.hands are currently tied. We will continue to abide by the rules and
:03:57. > :04:02.regulations and laws of the European Union for so long as we are members.
:04:03. > :04:05.Of course we want to strengthen our trade ties with the very many trade
:04:06. > :04:09.partners we have around the world but we are mindful of our
:04:10. > :04:15.obligations anned the treaty and we will follow them precisely. For now,
:04:16. > :04:19.the key players in Europe are wary of what MrTrump has to offer.
:04:20. > :04:23.TRANSLATION: Let's speak frankly, there are challenges that the US
:04:24. > :04:28.administration poses to our trade rules. So we of course have to talk
:04:29. > :04:33.to Donald Trump, he was elected. But we also have to promote our interest
:04:34. > :04:37.and values as Europeans. Back in Liverpool, this golden eagle
:04:38. > :04:42.marks the US kons lat established here in 1790. A reminder of
:04:43. > :04:46.long-standing Anglo American trade ties. Today, it's a French
:04:47. > :04:50.restaurant. That's a reminder the relationship can't be taken for
:04:51. > :04:55.granted. The assumption that everything will be fine with British
:04:56. > :04:58.trade is assuming that the Trump and his administration are rationale
:04:59. > :05:00.actors, they'll behave rationally but they might not. The picture may
:05:01. > :05:04.become clearer later today. In a moment we'll get
:05:05. > :05:06.the latest from Westminster, but first to Washington
:05:07. > :05:14.and our correspondent Theresa May is the first foreign
:05:15. > :05:20.leader to visit, does this mean that the special relationship does count
:05:21. > :05:24.for something there? Well, I just asked Donald Trump's spokeswoman
:05:25. > :05:29.that question and she said it's as important to America as to Britain,
:05:30. > :05:33.she said Donald Trump would use this meeting to assure MrsMay of that and
:05:34. > :05:36.she made the comparison with Brexit and his election, she said both
:05:37. > :05:40.leaders have been propelled into power and leadership by a populous
:05:41. > :05:43.wave that was to shake up establishment institutions, but,
:05:44. > :05:49.frankly, it's obvious that there is much more at stake here from MrsMay
:05:50. > :05:53.than MrTrump because Britain's other strategic relationship with the
:05:54. > :05:56.European Union is in flux, she can't afford to have this relationship
:05:57. > :06:00.look like it's getting weaker. She needs to show it's getting stronger,
:06:01. > :06:04.to demonstrate that Britain has options outside of the EU. Whatever
:06:05. > :06:07.MrTrump might say about similarities, he is quite different
:06:08. > :06:10.in the sense that he is a protectionist, he is a hard
:06:11. > :06:13.nationalist and MrsMay is not. She's already tried to encourage him not
:06:14. > :06:18.to turn his back on the world. I think she will continue that today.
:06:19. > :06:22.Then the question of how much she wants a personal special
:06:23. > :06:26.relationship with this man who is criticised even reviled in Britain
:06:27. > :06:29.for his positions from everything from Muslims and women, to torture.
:06:30. > :06:31.So, that news conference later today will be an important test of how
:06:32. > :06:36.she's going to handle this relationship.
:06:37. > :06:41.And what has MrsMay got to do to come away from feeling this first
:06:42. > :06:45.meeting was a success, Carole? Well, I think the Prime Minister will want
:06:46. > :06:49.to establish that personal relationship, a rapport with the new
:06:50. > :06:55.American President. She will want to build the basis for a future trade
:06:56. > :06:59.deal. She will want to, frankly, navigate her way through this mine
:07:00. > :07:02.field of different areas where she and the American President
:07:03. > :07:06.profoundly disagree. As you heard there, they are two very different
:07:07. > :07:11.characters but on the plane on the way over Theresa May said, well,
:07:12. > :07:14.sometimes opposites can attract. I think she will want to look to
:07:15. > :07:20.economic ties, to build on President trump's offer to put Britain at the
:07:21. > :07:25.front of the queue when it comes to a future bilaterial trade deal, then
:07:26. > :07:29.you come to these difficult contentious issues, torture,
:07:30. > :07:33.President trump has said he would be prepared to allow waterboarding in
:07:34. > :07:37.the fight against terrorism although some senior figures in his team
:07:38. > :07:40.disagree. Theresa May has said that would cause huge problems for future
:07:41. > :07:47.co-operation on defence and intelligence. It will be a real test
:07:48. > :07:50.of Theresa May's diplomatic skills, whether she can build that personal
:07:51. > :07:58.relationship without appearing too much to pander to a man with such
:07:59. > :08:02.contentious views so she would face a backlash when she gets home. Thank
:08:03. > :08:06.you both very much. You can see full coverage of that
:08:07. > :08:09.visit to Washington on the BBC News channel, including that news
:08:10. > :08:14.conference with Donald Trump which is expected around 6pm.
:08:15. > :08:17.The Royal College of Surgeons says plans to cut knee and hip
:08:18. > :08:19.replacement operations in Worcestershire are alarming.
:08:20. > :08:20.Three commissioning groups in the county say
:08:21. > :08:22.very obese patients - and those who are in
:08:23. > :08:25.only moderate pain - will not qualify for the surgery.
:08:26. > :08:27.They say the plan will save ?2 million a year,
:08:28. > :08:30.and bring them into line with other parts of the country.
:08:31. > :08:34.Here's our health correspondent Robert Pigott.
:08:35. > :08:42.At five feet ten inches and weighing a little over 18 stone, Gordon from
:08:43. > :08:47.Worcestershire can no longer expect swift access to the second hip
:08:48. > :08:51.replacement he needs. The pain from his osteoarthritis wakes him up at
:08:52. > :08:55.night and his mobility is badly compromised. But new restrictions on
:08:56. > :09:00.surgery mean he would have to lose 10% of his weight before he could
:09:01. > :09:08.qualify for surgery. It's a very sharp pain, very sharp pain. It's
:09:09. > :09:14.not an ache. It's very, very sharp. Turn over in bed... I haven't really
:09:15. > :09:22.been fully fit in terms of being able to walk properly, or go for a
:09:23. > :09:27.walk, pre-2013. It would dramatically change my life.
:09:28. > :09:35.More than 50 years on since the first operation, this revolutionary
:09:36. > :09:39.procedure is widely rationed. The clinical commissions groups in
:09:40. > :09:43.some areas will exclude from hip and knee replacement patients who rank
:09:44. > :09:46.as more bid le obese or those whose pain is not sufficiently severe to
:09:47. > :09:49.interfere with daily life. The Royal College of Surgeons says the
:09:50. > :09:55.restrictions are not clinically justified and will often be a false
:09:56. > :10:03.economy. The patient continues to be in pain, needs painkillers and
:10:04. > :10:09.physiotherapy, he may be unable to work. By waiting the operation may
:10:10. > :10:13.indeed become more difficult when he eventually gets it. The clinical
:10:14. > :10:17.commissions groups said they were bringing Worcestershire into line
:10:18. > :10:20.with what others do. They said if a patient feels they require this
:10:21. > :10:23.surgery but do not meet the criteria, there is a clear appeal
:10:24. > :10:28.system. Several other commissions groups in
:10:29. > :10:32.England, including in Harrogate, the Vale of York and Kent are imposing
:10:33. > :10:35.similar restrictions on non-emergency surgery. Demand for
:10:36. > :10:38.hip and knee replacements is growing with an ageing population but the
:10:39. > :10:42.money to pay for them is increasingly scarce.

:12:50. > :12:56.songs they had only recently At the end of the trial she told me
:12:57. > :13:04.about the void now in her life. We were only married for six months
:13:05. > :13:10.and especially having to spend your first wedding
:13:11. > :13:13.anniversary alone was just so far removed from the one
:13:14. > :13:16.that we had planned. It's just been
:13:17. > :13:22.absolutely horrendous. The widow of Phil Allen said she had
:13:23. > :13:25.been robbed of her soulmate in an horrific accident that should
:13:26. > :13:28.never have happened. She said those responsible had
:13:29. > :13:32.shown a total disregard And Robert Parker's widow said
:13:33. > :13:36.she had thought of nothing else since the moment he was killed

:13:57. > :13:59.original trial last year that he was dyslexic and that caused him
:14:00. > :14:05.problems in running the company. But perhaps one of the most poignant
:14:06. > :14:08.moments was when Shaun Vaughan who you heard speaking in that report,
:14:09. > :14:12.looked him in the eye talking about the death of her husband and said I
:14:13. > :14:17.am dyslexic too but I have never made that an excuse for many of my
:14:18. > :14:20.actions. Matthew Gordon and Peter Wood sentenced here this afternoon.

:14:51. > :14:55.the luxuries bought with this money Simon Kenny and Emma Coates took
:14:56. > :14:59.from their own law firm in Sussex. The judge said that they had used
:15:00. > :15:05.the firm as their own personal piggy bank. This began as a way of

:15:09. > :15:13.solicitor and his assistant who he was having an affair with at the
:15:14. > :15:16.time, the judge said that Emma Coates was drawn to excess and
:15:17. > :15:21.extravagance and if there was money there for the taking she took it.
:15:22. > :15:25.The judge said it was difficult to imagine a more spectacular breach of
:15:26. > :15:29.trust. One theft involved ?85,000 being taken from the will of an
:15:30. > :15:33.elderly woman. They told colleagues in the law firm they were moving the
:15:34. > :15:38.money offshore because of the banking crisis, to keep it safe. One
:15:39. > :15:41.particularly sad aspect of this case has been that the company accountant
:15:42. > :15:46.belatedly realised what was going on and he had been duped by the pair,
:15:47. > :15:49.he then took his own life. The judge in sentencing the pair said they

:22:12. > :22:13.shopping boom at the moment, perhaps not sustainably. It could be one
:22:14. > :22:16.reason, something that the governor of the Bank of England has warned we
:22:17. > :22:19.be vigilant about, if people get into serious debt and the result is
:22:20. > :22:27.formal insolvency, those are the figures, 91,000 in the last year, a
:22:28. > :22:29.rise of 13%, as he said. And within that this 23% rise in what are
:22:30. > :22:32.called individual voluntary arrangements, which are the most
:22:33. > :22:35.flexible form. So a lot of people are moving into that. On the other
:22:36. > :22:37.hand, though, it went to a low after the recession which followed the
:22:38. > :22:39.financial crisis and we are still about 30% below the numbers of that
:22:40. > :22:54.time. So it's not the worst it's been. Also bankruptcy,
:22:55. > :22:56.debt relief orders and other arrangements, they have all become
:22:57. > :22:59.easier to do and debt advisers have been pushing people in those
:23:00. > :23:01.directions so some of it could be not as much people getting into debt
:23:02. > :23:02.but people doing something about it, which is not necessarily a bad

:28:59. > :29:01.the men's final, and he could be facing his old rival,
:29:02. > :29:31.Rafa Nadal. So would it be another day to roll
:29:32. > :29:33.back the years? At 30, Rafael Nadal's pomp, like Roger Federer's,
:29:34. > :29:35.seemed to have passed, yet now an almost fantasy final between them

:29:38. > :29:39.recently returned from a wrist injury. You would scarcely have
:29:40. > :29:41.guessed it. Nadal cruised through first set but his opponent, once
:29:42. > :29:52.nicknamed Baby Fed, played like the grown-up version. The fans seemed to
:29:53. > :29:55.prefer Dimitrov, but Nadal held his nerve urging a third set tie-break.
:29:56. > :29:57.But Grigor Dimitrov was far from done. Another tie-break and this

:30:26. > :30:27.four hours of enthralling drama a place in the final is still there is
:30:28. > :30:47.for the taking. Andy says, BBC News. We've been freezing, this picture
:30:48. > :30:50.says it all but things are about to change. It is not cold and grey
:30:51. > :30:52.everywhere right now. We do have some sunshine but it will be
:30:53. > :30:56.replaced by thick clouds coming off the ocean over the next few days.
:30:57. > :31:00.That means temperatures will rise and even this evening if you take
:31:01. > :31:03.the walk the temperatures won't be as low as they have been in the last
:31:04. > :31:22.day or so. The clouds in the Atlantic are ready and
:31:23. > :31:25.waiting to come our way and with this also we have much milder
:31:26. > :31:27.conditions, compared to what we have had because it still won't be that
:31:28. > :31:29.desperately warm, at least in the short-term. As far as this afternoon
:31:30. > :31:32.is concerned those temperatures are still single figures, 7 degrees in
:31:33. > :31:34.the South, still nippy in northern and central areas with freezing fog
:31:35. > :31:36.although this evening and overnight that process begins where we
:31:37. > :31:45.introduced that less cold air coming in off the ocean, it is a frost free
:31:46. > :31:48.night across southern areas, in the north just about cold enough with
:31:49. > :31:51.that rain, sleet and snow mixing in but as we head into Saturday morning
:31:52. > :31:56.start to see that Atlantic weather is so we are pushing in that was
:31:57. > :32:00.Yannick air those temperatures touched that OC Alnwick air. It
:32:01. > :32:10.won't feel anywhere near as dry and better as it has done. This is the
:32:11. > :32:12.scene around midday, eastern areas still cloudy, going through that
:32:13. > :32:14.transition into the milder air, western areas already in the
:32:15. > :32:26.sunshine but also some showers coming in.
:32:27. > :32:30.So not a desperately mild stay on the way tomorrow but better if you
:32:31. > :32:32.don't like the cold. And through Saturday night that process
:32:33. > :32:35.continues, those winds off the Atlantic bringing in milder air with
:32:36. > :32:37.showers. Sadly we must pay for it because we want get the milder air
:32:38. > :32:58.for nothing. It means weather fronts coming in,
:32:59. > :33:01.temperatures are already reaching double figures in some of these
:33:02. > :33:04.southern areas, in the North still frost, still crispy but on balance
:33:05. > :33:07.not that bad. As we go through Monday and into next week it looks
:33:08. > :33:09.as if these weather fronts and this Atlantic air will be winning, it's
:33:10. > :33:12.all about the double figures. Those double figures is what many of us
:33:13. > :33:12.care about because it will feel much less cold.
