At least 13 people are dead
and the death toll is expected | 0:00:06 | 0:00:09 | |
to rise after mudslides slam
into homes in California. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:14 | |
The torrent of mud swept
through communities | 0:00:14 | 0:00:16 | |
near Santa Barbara -
one man heard a baby buried | 0:00:16 | 0:00:18 | |
in the mud and managed to pull
it out alive. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:23 | |
We dug down, we found a little baby. | 0:00:23 | 0:00:25 | |
We got it out, got
the mud out of its mouth. | 0:00:25 | 0:00:30 | |
Houses have been crushed by boulders
the size of small cars - | 0:00:30 | 0:00:33 | |
which rolled down the hillside
after heavy rain - | 0:00:33 | 0:00:35 | |
the first for months. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
We'll have the latest
from California where rescuers | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
are hoping to find more survivors. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:40 | |

Thousands of people are trapped
in the Swiss resort of Zermatt | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
after heavy snowfall -
one British skier waiting | 0:01:02 | 0:01:04 | |
to be airlifted out
says its been worrying. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:06 | |
We just tried to stay
as safe as possible, | 0:01:06 | 0:01:08 | |
and eliminate any risk rather
than taking any risks | 0:01:08 | 0:01:10 | |
and going out walking. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:15 | |
And Billy the Whizz. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:16 | |

Good afternoon and welcome
to the BBC News at One. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:57 | |
At least 13 people have been killed
in southern California | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
after mudslides and flash floods. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:02 | |
The death toll is expected to rise. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:06 | |
Witnesses say boulders the size
of small cars rolled down | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
the hillside after the first rain
for several months in | 0:02:09 | 0:02:11 | |
the Santa Barbara county. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:13 | |
More than 30 miles of the main
coastal road have been closed | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
and rescuers are trying to reach
a group of 300 people thought to be | 0:02:16 | 0:02:20 | |
trapped in one neighbourhood,
east of Santa Barbara, | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
James Cook reports from Los Angeles. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:30 | |
The rains came suddenly,
just before dawn. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:31 | |
Torrential and terrifying. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
They coursed over the slick scorched
earth, gathering speed until mud | 0:02:34 | 0:02:37 | |
was roaring down to the sea
like an express train. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:39 | |
The deluge smashed into the very
homes which had just survived | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
California's biggest
recorded wild fire. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:48 | |
The result, utter devastation. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:49 | |
We had a very difficult
time assessing the area, | 0:02:49 | 0:02:55 | |
and responding to many of those
areas, to assist those people. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:59 | |
The only words I can really
think of to describe | 0:02:59 | 0:03:02 | |
what it looked like,
it looked like a World | 0:03:02 | 0:03:03 | |
War I battlefield. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:05 | |
A good friend of mine,
whose name I won't mention, | 0:03:05 | 0:03:07 | |
lost a father-in-law. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:08 | |
I still have two friends
missing right now. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:13 | |
So it's devastating. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:17 | |
The fire created a situation where
the dirt was able to wash down. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:20 | |
Had we still had all
of the vegetation on the hill, | 0:03:20 | 0:03:23 | |
it would not have been as much
of an issue. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:25 | |
Despite dangerous conditions,
helicopters took to the sky, | 0:03:25 | 0:03:29 | |
winching to safety dozens of people
who were stranded amidst the rubble. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:36 | |
The stories of survival
are almost unbelievable. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:40 | |
I heard the rumble of the rocks,
and I looked over at the rear | 0:03:40 | 0:03:45 | |
and trees were coming down. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:47 | |
We ran into the house,
and right then, the boulders | 0:03:47 | 0:03:51 | |
busted through our house,
and we got upstairs, | 0:03:51 | 0:03:53 | |
and it got up to about eight feet,
nine feet up the stairs. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:58 | |
We were able to crawl
from the window to the roof. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:04 | |
The house is wiped out,
just took everything out. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:07 | |
Later we were worried
about a neighbour's house, | 0:04:07 | 0:04:11 | |
we went over to see if they were OK,
and we heard a little baby crying. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:17 | |
And a fireman came, dug down,
we found a little baby. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:27 | |
We got it out, got
the mud out of its mouth. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:30 | |
I'm hoping it's OK. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:31 | |
They took it to the hospital. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:33 | |
But it was just a baby,
four feet down in the mud, | 0:04:33 | 0:04:35 | |
and nowhere, under the rocks. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:37 | |
I'm glad we got him. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:39 | |
Who knows what else is down there. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
The communities hardest hit
were Montecito and Carpinteria | 0:04:42 | 0:04:44 | |
on the Pacific coast,
north of Los Angeles. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:49 | |
These are some of the most exclusive
neighbourhoods in the United States. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
Home to stars like Oprah Winfrey. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:58 | |
This is how deep the mud is. | 0:04:58 | 0:04:59 | |
And... | 0:04:59 | 0:05:07 | |
House in the back is gone. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:15 | |
Ellen Degeneres posted
this photo online. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:22 | |
The damage isn't
confined to the coast. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:26 | |
This is the Los Angeles
suburb of Burbank. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:28 | |
The mud roared down here
with terrifying speed, | 0:05:28 | 0:05:30 | |
sweeping everything in its path. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:33 | |
The firefighters won't let us go
up there any further. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:39 | |
They say the situation could change
in the blink of an eye, | 0:05:39 | 0:05:42 | |
and as you can see, this is how
dangerous it is. | 0:05:42 | 0:05:45 | |
Rescue workers are still scouring
scores of damaged and demolished | 0:05:45 | 0:05:47 | |
homes, searching for survivors. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:48 | |
Police say the number of dead
here is certain to rise. | 0:05:48 | 0:05:51 | |
James Cook, BBC News,
southern California. | 0:05:51 | 0:06:01 | |
A senior doctor has warned that
cancer care at an NHS specialist | 0:06:02 | 0:06:05 | |
hospital is becoming "unsustainable"
because of staff shortages. | 0:06:05 | 0:06:07 | |
A memo to staff at Oxford's
Churchill Hospital, which was leaked | 0:06:07 | 0:06:10 | |
to The Times newspaper,
said patients are facing | 0:06:10 | 0:06:11 | |
delays to the start times
of their chemotherapy treatment, | 0:06:11 | 0:06:14 | |
as nurse numbers are
down by about 40 %. | 0:06:14 | 0:06:16 | |

Our health editor
Hugh Pym is in Oxford. | 0:06:24 | 0:06:28 | |
What is happening there, explain the
back ground to this? Well, the | 0:06:28 | 0:06:33 | |
background Sophie is this leaked
e-mail is from a very senior doctor | 0:06:33 | 0:06:38 | |
here at the Churchill hospital, a
leading cancer care centre in this | 0:06:38 | 0:06:43 | |
part of England. It follows a
meeting with clinical leads, that is | 0:06:43 | 0:06:47 | |
other leading clinicians in the
hospital. Where it is said that | 0:06:47 | 0:06:50 | |
because of staffing shortages for
cancer nurses, they are beginning to | 0:06:50 | 0:06:57 | |
delay the start of chemotherapy for
some cancer patients, to four week, | 0:06:57 | 0:07:02 | |
the national target is four weeks
for the start of the treatment, so | 0:07:02 | 0:07:05 | |
they will remain within their
target, but clearly implied in this | 0:07:05 | 0:07:09 | |
is there will be some patients who
might have started chemo therapy | 0:07:09 | 0:07:14 | |
within a couple of week, that is
moved out to four. Four. For your | 0:07:14 | 0:07:20 | |
gent cases keep their pip will
continue as usual but there will be | 0:07:20 | 0:07:25 | |
possible changes for others maybe in
a terminal stage of cancer, the | 0:07:25 | 0:07:29 | |
amount of chemotherapy they get. The
trust here, which covers the | 0:07:29 | 0:07:33 | |
Churchill hospital is adamant there
are no formal plans to change | 0:07:33 | 0:07:36 | |
anything, they say they are meeting
their targets but they do | 0:07:36 | 0:07:41 | |
acknowledge that is a staffing
shortage, finding nurse information | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
the south-east of England generally,
with the cost of living and so on. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:48 | |
That is really exposed a major issue
across the NHS. Thank you. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:53 | |
Thank you. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:55 | |
The NHS dominated the first Prime
Minister's Questions of this year. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:58 | |
The Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn
said the health service | 0:07:58 | 0:08:02 | |
was "sinking" under Jeremy Hunt,
but Theresa May insisted it's | 0:08:02 | 0:08:05 | |
"better prepared than ever before". | 0:08:05 | 0:08:06 | |
Our assistant political editor,
Norman Smith, is in Westminster. | 0:08:06 | 0:08:10 | |
A New Year by the Prime Minister
still under huge pressure over the | 0:08:10 | 0:08:14 | |
state of the NHS. Mrs May has
freakily said that she wants to be | 0:08:14 | 0:08:18 | |
able to talk about non-Brexit
issues, about a domestic agenda like | 0:08:18 | 0:08:23 | |
the Health Service, she got her
opportunity today, but perhaps not | 0:08:23 | 0:08:26 | |
in the way she wanted, with angry,
angry exchanges with the Labour | 0:08:26 | 0:08:30 | |
leader, as he sought to crank up the
pressure on Mrs May over the state | 0:08:30 | 0:08:35 | |
of the NHS this winter, saying under
Jeremy Hunt's leadership it was | 0:08:35 | 0:08:41 | |
Sinning and attacking her for
remotes Mr Hunt, giving him control | 0:08:41 | 0:08:47 | |
of social care where Jeremy Corbyn
said he should have been sacked, | 0:08:47 | 0:08:51 | |
pointing to the cancelled non-urgent
operation, the hours people were | 0:08:51 | 0:08:56 | |
having to wait in ambulances and Mrs
May prompted a degree of inCree duty | 0:08:56 | 0:09:01 | |
when she said the NHS was pet better
prepared this winter than ever | 0:09:01 | 0:09:06 | |
before, pointing to the fact there
was more money, more acute beds, | 0:09:06 | 0:09:11 | |
more people were taking out flu
jabs, more were open over the | 0:09:11 | 0:09:15 | |
holiday eperiod. Have a listen to ho
heated some of the exchanges were. | 0:09:15 | 0:09:21 | |
She told the house the NHS was
better prepared for winter, than | 0:09:21 | 0:09:26 | |
ever before. So what words of
comfort does the Prime Minister have | 0:09:26 | 0:09:33 | |
to the 17,000 patients waiting in
the back of ambulances, in the last | 0:09:33 | 0:09:38 | |
week of December? Is it that nothing
is perfect by any chance? I fully | 0:09:38 | 0:09:45 | |
accept that the NHS is under
pressure over winter, it is | 0:09:45 | 0:09:50 | |
regularly under pressure at winter
time, I have been very clear, I | 0:09:50 | 0:09:55 | |
apologise to those people who have
had operations delayed. I think what | 0:09:55 | 0:09:59 | |
we learn is that for all the time we
at Westminster spend talking about | 0:09:59 | 0:10:05 | |
Brexit, Mr Corbyn and probably Mrs
May know for many voters, the issue | 0:10:05 | 0:10:10 | |
that matters above all others is
still the NHS. | 0:10:10 | 0:10:17 | |
We are are going to go back to our
main story, the mudslides in | 0:10:17 | 0:10:22 | |
California. There are warnings that
the death toll could rise. Rescuers | 0:10:22 | 0:10:31 | |
are searching for survivors.
Extraordinary scenes there, and this | 0:10:31 | 0:10:34 | |
is the area that was hit not so long
ago by the fire? Yes, and that made | 0:10:34 | 0:10:41 | |
it worse, Sophie, because the fire
scorched the hill sides and burned | 0:10:41 | 0:10:45 | |
the vegetation away, then the rain
did that, and well you get | 0:10:45 | 0:10:49 | |
mudslides, I want to explain, a lot
people think the mudslides is a | 0:10:49 | 0:10:52 | |
couple of feet of soupy mud. That is
no not the case. That is what is in | 0:10:52 | 0:10:56 | |
the mud. It is dynamic, rushing down
hill very fast. Imagine it is 4am, | 0:10:56 | 0:11:02 | |
you are sound asleep and that comes
blasting through your home. This is | 0:11:02 | 0:11:07 | |
one of the home, it ripped the front
wall right off the home there. You | 0:11:07 | 0:11:11 | |
can see the devastation that this
causes, and this home, out of all of | 0:11:11 | 0:11:15 | |
these that were damaged, is actually
in pretty good shape right now. Are | 0:11:15 | 0:11:19 | |
they hoping to find more survives?
They are hoping to find more | 0:11:19 | 0:11:25 | |
survivors. They are going to
continue looking again today. So | 0:11:25 | 0:11:29 | |
here is the problem right now. I
mean you have all this debris, you | 0:11:29 | 0:11:34 | |
have homes covered and in some cases
they have got to dig through this, | 0:11:34 | 0:11:38 | |
so the rescue effort will continue
today, and they do expect to find | 0:11:38 | 0:11:42 | |
more people, survivors, we are not
so sure. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:49 | |
UK manufacturing output
has reached its highest | 0:11:49 | 0:11:51 | |
level in nearly a decade,
after recording its seventh | 0:11:51 | 0:11:53 | |
consecutive month of
growth in November. | 0:11:53 | 0:11:57 | |
Renewable energy projects,
boats, aeroplanes and cars | 0:11:57 | 0:11:59 | |
for export helped grow output
by three-point-nine % | 0:11:59 | 0:12:01 | |
between September and November -
compared with the same | 0:12:01 | 0:12:03 | |
period in 2016. | 0:12:03 | 0:12:05 | |
Our economics correspondent
Andy Verity has the details. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:13 | |
This Birmingham company makes
precision metal components | 0:12:13 | 0:12:16 | |
for everything from surgical
implants to rear-view mirrors. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:19 | |
And business is booming. | 0:12:19 | 0:12:21 | |
It has been winning business
from customers around the world, | 0:12:21 | 0:12:24 | |
from pharmaceutical
manufacturers to toolmakers. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:27 | |
And it is now looking forward
to its strongest year for a decade. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:32 | |
We have always exported a huge
percentage of what we make. | 0:12:32 | 0:12:35 | |
Currently that is around 70, 75%. | 0:12:35 | 0:12:39 | |
Global growth of our customers
and the manufacturing supply chain | 0:12:39 | 0:12:42 | |
means growth for us. | 0:12:42 | 0:12:45 | |
So it has been vital in terms
of our success in the last 12 months | 0:12:45 | 0:12:49 | |
and will remain to be going forward. | 0:12:49 | 0:12:50 | |
This is how well
manufacturing has done. | 0:12:50 | 0:12:54 | |
In the three months to the end
of November, the biggest | 0:12:54 | 0:12:57 | |
rise in seven years. | 0:12:57 | 0:12:58 | |
And there is more manufacturing
going on now than there | 0:12:58 | 0:13:00 | |
has been for ten years. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:02 | |
That has had its effect
on the deficit, the trade deficit, | 0:13:02 | 0:13:06 | |
the difference between what we sell
abroad and what we buy | 0:13:06 | 0:13:09 | |
in from abroad. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:10 | |
That shrank to 6.2 billion,
that is down by £2.1 billion. | 0:13:10 | 0:13:12 | |
That improving trade position
was helped by the car industry. | 0:13:12 | 0:13:15 | |
While we are buying fewer of them
at home, we are selling | 0:13:15 | 0:13:18 | |
more of them abroad. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:24 | |
And British companies that make
machines that do the manufacturing, | 0:13:24 | 0:13:26 | |
so-called capital goods,
are tapping into growing demand | 0:13:26 | 0:13:28 | |
for their products around the world. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:33 | |
The UK transport sector has
performed particularly strongly | 0:13:33 | 0:13:35 | |
over the last decade. | 0:13:35 | 0:13:36 | |
There has been a huge focus
on improving efficiency in the car | 0:13:36 | 0:13:38 | |
industry in particular
and an enormous amount | 0:13:38 | 0:13:40 | |
of innovation, looking
at new models, fuel | 0:13:40 | 0:13:42 | |
efficiency, new materials. | 0:13:42 | 0:13:51 | |
And that really has tapped
into a customer base | 0:13:51 | 0:13:53 | |
which is looking to buy those
kinds of products. | 0:13:53 | 0:13:55 | |
So we have been very much in tune
with the customers that | 0:13:55 | 0:13:58 | |
are out there globally. | 0:13:58 | 0:14:03 | |
The sale of works of art to foreign
customers also helped to lift | 0:14:03 | 0:14:06 | |
the UK export numbers. | 0:14:06 | 0:14:07 | |
The weak pound means that foreign
buyers with dollars, | 0:14:07 | 0:14:15 | |
Euros or yen to spend can buy more
British art for their money. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:18 | |
But construction has been
shrinking now for six months. | 0:14:18 | 0:14:20 | |
In the three months to November
the amount of work being | 0:14:20 | 0:14:23 | |
done was down by 2%. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:24 | |
This once booming sector is now
struggling to extract | 0:14:24 | 0:14:26 | |
itself from a slump. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:27 | |
Andy Verity, BBC News. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:31 | |
A 16-year-old boy has
appeared in court, charged | 0:14:31 | 0:14:33 | |
with the murder of a shop worker
in London on Saturday. | 0:14:33 | 0:14:35 | |
49-year-old Vijay Patel was attacked | 0:14:35 | 0:14:37 | |
after he refused to sell cigarette
papers to a group | 0:14:37 | 0:14:39 | |
of three teenagers. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:41 | |
An online crowdfunding page has been
set up by the nearby | 0:14:41 | 0:14:44 | |
Mill Hill Synagogue to help
Mr Patel's family. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:46 | |
It has already raised
more than £12,000. | 0:14:46 | 0:14:55 | |
A man whose body was found buried
in a garden was allegedly killed | 0:14:55 | 0:14:58 | |
by his daughter several years ago,
the BBC understands. | 0:14:58 | 0:15:00 | |
Police say that the woman went
into a police station in Stockport | 0:15:00 | 0:15:03 | |
at the weekend and told detectives
what she had done. | 0:15:03 | 0:15:05 | |
Judith Moritz is in Stockport now. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:10 | |
What more do we know? Well, Sophie
the police say that the woman who is | 0:15:10 | 0:15:16 | |
63 turned up at a police station on
Sunday, and they say she told them | 0:15:16 | 0:15:21 | |
she had killed a man, some years
ago, and that she had buried him in | 0:15:21 | 0:15:24 | |
the garden of a property in this
road. That sparked a forensic | 0:15:24 | 0:15:30 | |
search, and last night, detectives
confirmed they have found human | 0:15:30 | 0:15:34 | |
remains here, it is believed that
this is the body of a man named | 0:15:34 | 0:15:40 | |
Kenneth Coombes. We know neighbours
have been asked if they remember a | 0:15:40 | 0:15:43 | |
man by that name, that he was in his
late 80s in 2005. The BBC | 0:15:43 | 0:15:49 | |
understands that the woman, who is
now being questioned on suspicion of | 0:15:49 | 0:15:54 | |
murder is Kenneth Coombe's daughter.
Greater Manchester Police say the | 0:15:54 | 0:15:57 | |
investigation is in the early stages
and many questions which still have | 0:15:57 | 0:16:01 | |
answers. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:03 | |
The President of South Korea says
Donald Trump deserves credit | 0:16:03 | 0:16:06 | |
for helping to foster their first
talks with the North in two years. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:09 | |
Moon Jae-in said pressure
from America and sanctions may well | 0:16:09 | 0:16:11 | |
have made the meeting possible. | 0:16:11 | 0:16:12 | |
The talks took place yesterday
in the demilitarised zone which has | 0:16:12 | 0:16:15 | |
divided the two Koreas since 1953. | 0:16:15 | 0:16:16 | |
Sophie Long reports from
the South Korean capital, Seoul. | 0:16:16 | 0:16:25 | |
Communication between the North
and South Korean governments has now | 0:16:25 | 0:16:28 | |
been re-established. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:31 | |
A North Korean delegation will be
present at the Winter Olympics | 0:16:31 | 0:16:34 | |
being hosted by the South. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:37 | |
And a direct military hotline
connecting to the two Koreas | 0:16:37 | 0:16:39 | |
has been reactivated. | 0:16:39 | 0:16:43 | |
But there was barely a mention,
and certainly no movement | 0:16:43 | 0:16:45 | |
on the fundamental issue
of North Korea's nuclear | 0:16:45 | 0:16:47 | |
and missile programme. | 0:16:47 | 0:16:51 | |
Today, the South Korean President
said resolving that was | 0:16:51 | 0:16:53 | |
the only pathway to peace. | 0:16:53 | 0:16:59 | |
TRANSLATION: The denuclearisation
of the Korean peninsula | 0:16:59 | 0:17:02 | |
is the fundamental pathway
we need to follow. | 0:17:02 | 0:17:05 | |
This cannot be compromised. | 0:17:05 | 0:17:07 | |
This is the only way for us
to achieve full peace | 0:17:07 | 0:17:10 | |
in the Korean peninsula. | 0:17:10 | 0:17:14 | |
Not everyone was in
favour of the talks. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:21 | |
Some believe that the North Korean
leaders sudden willingness to engage | 0:17:21 | 0:17:24 | |
with its neighbour is motivated
by the desire to drive a wedge | 0:17:24 | 0:17:27 | |
between those allied against him,
as the latest round of UN sanctions | 0:17:27 | 0:17:29 | |
imposed on his regime
really start to bite. | 0:17:29 | 0:17:31 | |
But Moon Jae-in was adamant
today that he would not | 0:17:31 | 0:17:34 | |
allow that to happen. | 0:17:34 | 0:17:37 | |
TRANSLATION: In terms
of security and defence, | 0:17:37 | 0:17:40 | |
South Korea and the United States
are the closest of allies. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:46 | |
We also share the same
view of the significance | 0:17:46 | 0:17:48 | |
of the threat from North Korea. | 0:17:48 | 0:17:51 | |
So South Korea and the United States
have been working closely together | 0:17:51 | 0:17:55 | |
against North Korea's nuclear
threat. | 0:17:55 | 0:18:00 | |
Moon Jae-in vowed to make
2018 the turning point | 0:18:00 | 0:18:03 | |
in inter-Korean relations. | 0:18:03 | 0:18:06 | |
He hopes the Pyeongchang games
could mark the beginning | 0:18:06 | 0:18:10 | |
of a process that would create
a life for people here free | 0:18:10 | 0:18:13 | |
from concerns about war. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:22 | |
But given the year started
with the North Korean and US leaders | 0:18:22 | 0:18:24 | |
exchanging threats and boasts
about whose nuclear button | 0:18:24 | 0:18:26 | |
was biggest, he has
much ground to cover. | 0:18:26 | 0:18:28 | |
Sophie Long, BBC News, Seoul. | 0:18:28 | 0:18:29 | |
Our top story this lunchtime. | 0:18:29 | 0:18:31 | |
At least 13 people are dead
and the death toll is expected | 0:18:31 | 0:18:33 | |
to rise after mudslides slam
into homes in California. | 0:18:33 | 0:18:41 | |
There are warnings that the death
toll could rise. | 0:18:41 | 0:18:44 | |
And coming up -
supportive or too soft? | 0:18:44 | 0:18:46 | |
A new Army recruitment
campaign divides opinion. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:48 | |
Coming up in sport. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:49 | |
Former Liverpool goalkeeper Tommy
Lawrence has died at the age of 77. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:52 | |
He was Bill Shankly's first-choice
keeper during the 1960s. | 0:18:52 | 0:19:02 | |
Thousands of tourists have been left
stranded after heavy snow | 0:19:05 | 0:19:09 | |
in the Alps cut off towns
and villages across Switzerland, | 0:19:09 | 0:19:11 | |
France and Italy. | 0:19:11 | 0:19:13 | |
Visitors are being airlifted out
of Zermatt, one of Switzerland's | 0:19:13 | 0:19:21 | |
most popular ski resorts,
where around 13000 | 0:19:21 | 0:19:22 | |
people are trapped. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:23 | |
The avalanche risk in the area
is the highest it's been | 0:19:23 | 0:19:26 | |
for almost ten years. | 0:19:26 | 0:19:27 | |
In France, a 39-year-old British
skier is still missing after bad | 0:19:27 | 0:19:29 | |
weather hampered rescue
efforts in Tignes. | 0:19:29 | 0:19:31 | |
Tom Burridge has the latest. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:38 | |
This is the only way out of Zermatt
this morning. The luggage of | 0:19:38 | 0:19:46 | |
tourists stuck here airlifted out.
Heavy snow has closed all the roads. | 0:19:46 | 0:19:53 | |
So those who can catch this shuttle
service to a nearby town. Waiting on | 0:19:53 | 0:19:59 | |
that helipad this lunchtime, Rebecca
Smith. These are people waiting for | 0:19:59 | 0:20:04 | |
the next helicopter out. We spoke as
she began the first leg of a long | 0:20:04 | 0:20:11 | |
journey back to Manchester. A lot of
people will say you are stuck in | 0:20:11 | 0:20:17 | |
some were beautiful, you can go
skiing but that is not the case, you | 0:20:17 | 0:20:21 | |
are stuck in a hotel room because of
the risk of avalanche. So this | 0:20:21 | 0:20:26 | |
morning helicopters were also busy
clearing avalanches. Blowing huge | 0:20:26 | 0:20:31 | |
quantities of snow off the
mountains, which has fallen in | 0:20:31 | 0:20:35 | |
recent days. In remote areas one
metre of snow fell in just 24 hours. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:41 | |
And although conditions in Zermatt
have improved this morning, the risk | 0:20:41 | 0:20:46 | |
of avalanche in the area remains
high. A Swiss company captured this | 0:20:46 | 0:20:54 | |
avalanche just outside the town last
week. The deadly force abundantly | 0:20:54 | 0:20:59 | |
clear. And this was the scene after
a recent avalanche in a French town. | 0:20:59 | 0:21:10 | |
Further south in the resort of
Tignes, cafes hidden by the snow. It | 0:21:10 | 0:21:16 | |
was here that John Bromell from
Lincolnshire was snowboarding in | 0:21:16 | 0:21:20 | |
poor weather on Sunday. He is still
missing. In Zermatt the operation to | 0:21:20 | 0:21:25 | |
get tourists out on helicopters
continues. Looking forward to | 0:21:25 | 0:21:31 | |
getting back down the mountain. We
live in Australia and we will miss | 0:21:31 | 0:21:35 | |
the flight from Zurich so we're
happy to leave now. Heavy snow this | 0:21:35 | 0:21:39 | |
winter has made many peoples skiing
holidays but with some slopes here | 0:21:39 | 0:21:44 | |
now closed, too much is causing
problems and treacherous conditions. | 0:21:44 | 0:21:49 | |
The Chancellor, Philip Hammond,
and the Brexit Secretary, | 0:21:49 | 0:21:51 | |
David Davis, are making separate
visits to Germany, to try to build | 0:21:51 | 0:21:54 | |
support for a trade deal
between the UK and the EU | 0:21:54 | 0:21:57 | |
which includes financial services. | 0:21:57 | 0:21:59 | |
In a joint article for a German
newspaper, they say it makes "no | 0:21:59 | 0:22:02 | |
sense" to put in place
what they call "unnecessary | 0:22:02 | 0:22:05 | |
barriers" to trade
in services or goods. | 0:22:05 | 0:22:10 | |
First to our Political Correspondent
Ben Wright in Westminster. | 0:22:10 | 0:22:15 | |
Will they be listened to? Well just
before Christmas we had high fives | 0:22:15 | 0:22:22 | |
around Westminster most government
ministers when the broad terms of | 0:22:22 | 0:22:24 | |
the divorce deal between the UK and
the EU was agreed including the | 0:22:24 | 0:22:29 | |
financial settlement that Britain
will have to pay. That was just a | 0:22:29 | 0:22:32 | |
first step, the first hurdle to be
cleared. Now we are seeing the | 0:22:32 | 0:22:35 | |
beginning of the second phase of
Brexit negotiations and it is all | 0:22:35 | 0:22:39 | |
about the future relationship
between the EU and UK and in | 0:22:39 | 0:22:43 | |
particular the trade relationship.
So we're seeing key ministers, the | 0:22:43 | 0:22:47 | |
Chancellor and the Brexit secretary,
who | 0:22:47 | 0:22:59 | |
wear on a referendum, showing a
united front by going to Germany on | 0:23:14 | 0:23:16 | |
a charm offensive, putting an arm
around German businesses and saying | 0:23:16 | 0:23:19 | |
even though we're leaving the single
market and Customs union there can | 0:23:19 | 0:23:21 | |
still be a really close and good
trade deal between the EU and the UK | 0:23:21 | 0:23:24 | |
that works in both sides interest.
The UK wants a bespoke deal | 0:23:24 | 0:23:27 | |
including goods and services because
it is concerned about the future of | 0:23:27 | 0:23:29 | |
the City of London. So that is the
case they're making Germany. The EU | 0:23:29 | 0:23:32 | |
for their part has said they will
not countenance is bespoke deal with | 0:23:32 | 0:23:34 | |
UK and the UK cannot cherry pick the
best bits of the single market and | 0:23:34 | 0:23:37 | |
there can be no special arrangement
about the City of London. So while | 0:23:37 | 0:23:40 | |
the UK is in Germany trying to woo
German business and politicians, the | 0:23:40 | 0:23:42 | |
EU has so far shown it is very solid
as a negotiating block. | 0:23:42 | 0:23:46 | |
A man who claims he was sexually
abused as a child by the former | 0:23:46 | 0:23:49 | |
football coach, Barry Bennell,
has hold the court that he didn't | 0:23:49 | 0:23:52 | |
report the abuse he suffered,
because he didn't want to "spoil any | 0:23:52 | 0:23:55 | |
chances" of succeeding
as a footballer. | 0:23:55 | 0:23:56 | |
Barry Bennell, who's now known
as Richard Jones, denies 48 charges | 0:23:56 | 0:23:59 | |
of child sexual abuse. | 0:23:59 | 0:24:00 | |
David Ornstein is at
Liverpool Crown Court. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:10 | |
Yesterday the prosecution laid out
their case against Barry Bennell | 0:24:10 | 0:24:13 | |
describing him as a predatory and
devious paedophile. Today we heard | 0:24:13 | 0:24:18 | |
from the first witness, it was
harrowing evidence, it must be said. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:22 | |
This witness said he met Barry
Bennell when he was playing for | 0:24:22 | 0:24:26 | |
youth team in the north-west of
England in the early 1980s, aged | 0:24:26 | 0:24:31 | |
between 11 and 13. And to quote him
he said he used to flash his eyes | 0:24:31 | 0:24:35 | |
that you, made you feel special. It
was then said that Barry Bennell | 0:24:35 | 0:24:39 | |
would hand-pick the best | 0:24:39 | 0:24:51 | |
players and invite them to stay at
his flat above a video shop. Once a | 0:25:04 | 0:25:07 | |
week and sometimes three or four
times a week in holiday times. They | 0:25:07 | 0:25:09 | |
would play fight, watch movies and
when the lights went out music would | 0:25:09 | 0:25:12 | |
come on loudly and the abuse would
begin. Allegedly taking place for | 0:25:12 | 0:25:14 | |
this individual in you said the tens
of ten is it not hundreds of times. | 0:25:14 | 0:25:17 | |
It was emotional evidence and the
cross-examination has now begun and | 0:25:17 | 0:25:19 | |
will continue after the break. Barry
Bennell faces 48 charges and the | 0:25:19 | 0:25:22 | |
trial is expected to last for eight
weeks. | 0:25:22 | 0:25:24 | |
The Army has defended
a new recruitment campaign, | 0:25:24 | 0:25:26 | |
which focuses on the emotional
and physical support | 0:25:26 | 0:25:27 | |
given to soldiers. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:28 | |
Advertisements on television, radio
and online will try to reassure | 0:25:28 | 0:25:31 | |
applicants that their sexuality
or religion will not stand | 0:25:31 | 0:25:33 | |
in the way of becoming a soldier. | 0:25:33 | 0:25:35 | |
Critics of the campaign say it
shows the army has bowed | 0:25:35 | 0:25:37 | |
to political correctness. | 0:25:37 | 0:25:38 | |
Here's our Defence
Correspondent Jonathan Beale. | 0:25:38 | 0:25:40 | |
It is all right to cry and show a
motion in the army, a recruitment | 0:25:40 | 0:25:47 | |
campaign very different to those of
the past. Part of what is called, | 0:25:47 | 0:25:51 | |
Army belonging. Voiced by shoulders
to say there is a motion and | 0:25:51 | 0:25:55 | |
physical support for new recruits.
-- by soldiers. The adverts answer | 0:25:55 | 0:26:00 | |
questions such as can might be gay
and still join the army whilst a | 0:26:00 | 0:26:05 | |
Muslim soldier explains how he can
still practice his faith. All aimed | 0:26:05 | 0:26:09 | |
at groups not seen as the
traditional target audience. But | 0:26:09 | 0:26:13 | |
minorities who may have been
reluctant to sign up. Our | 0:26:13 | 0:26:18 | |
traditional cohort would have been
white milk occasions, 16 to 25 rolls | 0:26:18 | 0:26:22 | |
and there is not as many of those
around as once aware of. Society is | 0:26:22 | 0:26:27 | |
changing and so it is appropriate
for us to reach out to a broader | 0:26:27 | 0:26:31 | |
base. The Army has been struggling
to recruit, made all the more | 0:26:31 | 0:26:34 | |
difficult by a lack of a major
campaign like Afghanistan or Iraq. | 0:26:34 | 0:26:39 | |
War is often the best recruiting
sergeant. It is also competing in an | 0:26:39 | 0:26:44 | |
era of relatively high employment.
The regular strength of the Army | 0:26:44 | 0:26:48 | |
should be 80 2000. But it is
currently just over 77,000 strong. A | 0:26:48 | 0:26:54 | |
shortfall of more than 4000. But
some former soldiers question | 0:26:54 | 0:26:58 | |
whether the Army is trying to be too
politically correct with these | 0:26:58 | 0:27:02 | |
adverts. They are aiming the
recruiting campaign at specific | 0:27:02 | 0:27:06 | |
minorities and they should be aiming
at more broadly at the kind of | 0:27:06 | 0:27:09 | |
people who will want to join the
army, people who are looking for a | 0:27:09 | 0:27:12 | |
fight, looking for action and
adventure. This older advertisement | 0:27:12 | 0:27:17 | |
is what people might expect from the
Army, a recent plan to drop its Be | 0:27:17 | 0:27:21 | |
The Best motto because it was seen
as elitist, was blocked by the | 0:27:21 | 0:27:26 | |
Defence Secretary. It is still an
organisation whose job is to be | 0:27:26 | 0:27:30 | |
ready for combat. But the head of
the army says it must broaden its | 0:27:30 | 0:27:34 | |
appeal and reflect modern Britain. | 0:27:34 | 0:27:42 | |
This time last year he was being
tipped as the next Lewis Hamilton. | 0:27:42 | 0:27:45 | |
Billy Monger was 17,
and a star of Formula 4 racing. | 0:27:45 | 0:27:47 | |
Then he had a horrific crash last
April and had to have both legs | 0:27:47 | 0:27:51 | |
amputated below the knee. | 0:27:51 | 0:27:52 | |
But his recovery and determination
have astounded doctors, | 0:27:52 | 0:27:54 | |
and this week, Billy will be driving
in front of crowds for the first | 0:27:54 | 0:27:57 | |
time since his accident. | 0:27:57 | 0:27:58 | |
Tim Muffett has been to meet him. | 0:27:58 | 0:28:00 | |
'Billy Whizz', a nickname
he was determined to keep. | 0:28:00 | 0:28:06 | |
It's just nine months
since Billy Monger had | 0:28:06 | 0:28:08 | |
both his lower legs amputated
after a car crash. | 0:28:08 | 0:28:13 | |
This is a final practice before
driving with a stunt team | 0:28:13 | 0:28:15 | |
at Birmingham's NEC. | 0:28:15 | 0:28:20 | |
The aim is to put on a good show. | 0:28:20 | 0:28:23 | |
I think we've got a great team,
we've got a great bunch | 0:28:23 | 0:28:26 | |
of lads doing the show,
I'm just hoping everything goes | 0:28:26 | 0:28:28 | |
smoothly and we have a good time
and do ourselves proud. | 0:28:28 | 0:28:32 | |
Dunnington Park, last April. | 0:28:32 | 0:28:34 | |
When Billy's Formula 4 car hit
a stationary vehicle. | 0:28:34 | 0:28:39 | |
COMMENTATOR: That is horrendous! | 0:28:39 | 0:28:43 | |
All I wanted to do was to get
through it and be alive. | 0:28:43 | 0:28:47 | |
There was a slight moment, when I
thought I wouldn't drive again. | 0:28:47 | 0:28:52 | |
It still hasn't changed the dream. | 0:28:52 | 0:28:53 | |
The dream stays the same,
that I want to be an F1 driver. | 0:28:53 | 0:28:58 | |
You've got your prosthetics
here and you're still able | 0:28:58 | 0:29:00 | |
to control the car and the pedals. | 0:29:00 | 0:29:02 | |
Many people would find that
really extraordinary. | 0:29:02 | 0:29:06 | |
When you control the pedal normally
you do it all through your ankle, | 0:29:06 | 0:29:09 | |
that is how you control how much
input you're putting | 0:29:09 | 0:29:12 | |
into the pedals. | 0:29:12 | 0:29:13 | |
But with me, because I haven't got
ankles, the way I simply control | 0:29:13 | 0:29:16 | |
it is just through my leg like this. | 0:29:16 | 0:29:21 | |
Rather than going like that,
just doing a push motion instead, | 0:29:21 | 0:29:24 | |
to control the car. | 0:29:24 | 0:29:27 | |
Terry Grant has been training Billy
ahead of the Autosport | 0:29:27 | 0:29:29 | |
international event. | 0:29:29 | 0:29:32 | |
He's one of the world's
top stunt drivers. | 0:29:32 | 0:29:37 | |
Drive out, drive out! | 0:29:37 | 0:29:38 | |
Bang on. | 0:29:38 | 0:29:41 | |
Billy is a very
special lad, for sure. | 0:29:41 | 0:29:45 | |
Regardless of his injuries. | 0:29:45 | 0:29:49 | |
At the moment you are rehearsing
on an airfield, there's | 0:29:49 | 0:29:51 | |
going to be concrete pillars
where the cones are. | 0:29:51 | 0:29:53 | |
The level of control he has
got now, for prosthetic | 0:29:53 | 0:29:56 | |
legs, it is phenomenal. | 0:29:56 | 0:29:58 | |
Although Billy can use
the accelerator, his car | 0:29:58 | 0:30:01 | |
is adapted so that this lever
controls the brake. | 0:30:01 | 0:30:05 | |
He has been backed
by Mission Motorsport, | 0:30:05 | 0:30:07 | |
a charity which typically helps
wounded servicemen | 0:30:07 | 0:30:10 | |
and women drive again,
often in specially adapted cars. | 0:30:10 | 0:30:14 | |
Their freedom of mobility
is a phenomenal thing. | 0:30:14 | 0:30:17 | |
If that's taken away
from you as an adult, | 0:30:17 | 0:30:23 | |
it has a dramatic effect
on your life, on your | 0:30:23 | 0:30:26 | |
own personal freedoms. | 0:30:26 | 0:30:27 | |
And also, I think, a lot
about your sense of self | 0:30:27 | 0:30:29 | |
and your independence. | 0:30:29 | 0:30:31 | |
And to be able to give that back
to somebody is an extraordinary | 0:30:31 | 0:30:34 | |
thing to be able to do. | 0:30:34 | 0:30:35 | |
What do your family
think about you getting | 0:30:35 | 0:30:37 | |
back behind the wheel? | 0:30:37 | 0:30:38 | |
My mum was very nervous! | 0:30:38 | 0:30:39 | |
But if I don't do it what else am
I going to do with my life? | 0:30:39 | 0:30:43 | |
I need to make my life
into something positive. | 0:30:43 | 0:30:45 | |
Tim Muffett, BBC News. | 0:30:45 | 0:30:51 | |
Time for a look at the weather. | 0:30:51 | 0:30:52 | |
Here's Helen Willetts. | 0:30:52 | 0:30:57 | |
We were talking | 0:30:57 | 0:30:59 | |
We were talking about the mudslides
in California all triggered by heavy | 0:30:59 | 0:31:02 | |
rain.
After an incredibly dry period of | 0:31:02 | 0:31:05 | |
course. But look at this, intense
rain about two or three inches | 0:31:05 | 0:31:09 | |
falling in just a few hours. But the
good news is that it's clearing away | 0:31:09 | 0:31:14 | |
and for the coming for five days,
high pressure is building in which | 0:31:14 | 0:31:18 | |
will ensure some dry weather. Good
news at least for the clean-up but | 0:31:18 | 0:31:23 | |
it might also produced some rain
across the Caribbean. As for Europe, | 0:31:23 | 0:31:28 | |
another storm coming through the Bay
of Biscay today which will head | 0:31:28 | 0:31:31 | |
across the Pyrenees towards the Alps
tomorrow. So we could have further | 0:31:31 | 0:31:35 | |
snowfall and windy weather as well.
In contrast in UK, a very quiet | 0:31:35 | 0:31:40 | |
spell of weather and also brighter.
Much brighter for many parts. But | 0:31:40 | 0:31:48 | |
not all, we've had some rather
stubborn fog and this was Belfast | 0:31:48 | 0:31:52 | |
just a couple of hours ago. That
will not clear Northern Ireland | 0:31:52 | 0:31:58 | |
completely before darkness falls. We
still have leaden skies further | 0:31:58 | 0:32:02 | |
east, grey and damp and the rain has
been quite persistent. Overnight the | 0:32:02 | 0:32:08 | |
main hazard is the fog. It could
turn out to be freezing fog with | 0:32:08 | 0:32:13 | |
some icy patches as well.
Particularly across the Severn | 0:32:13 | 0:32:20 | |
Valley, parts of Wales, north-west
England and again Northern Ireland. | 0:32:20 | 0:32:24 | |
As for the rest of Scotland, we hope
the rain will clear away from the | 0:32:24 | 0:32:29 | |
mainland. But it will be a very
chilly start in the morning. Then | 0:32:29 | 0:32:34 | |
further south are not as helpful for
some sunshine tomorrow as the fog | 0:32:34 | 0:32:38 | |
will be more widespread. Affecting
some major motorway networks. | 0:32:38 | 0:32:44 | |
Further east we still have the
remnants of a weather front, Hill | 0:32:44 | 0:32:48 | |
fog here. Not as breakfast today but
some persistent drizzle around. We | 0:32:48 | 0:32:55 | |
will see some sunshine further west.
Five or 6 degrees. But again the | 0:32:55 | 0:33:07 | |
sunshine will compensate.
Temperatures around seven or 8 | 0:33:07 | 0:33:10 | |
degrees. Feeling colder weather fog
lingers. Another repeat performance | 0:33:10 | 0:33:14 | |
tomorrow night, some icy patches and
fog around. And we have to wait | 0:33:14 | 0:33:20 | |
until next week to clear that out of
the way. Looking promising, and the | 0:33:20 | 0:33:28 | |
weekend looking drive for most if a
little bit grey. And just again a | 0:33:28 | 0:33:33 | |
reminder for tomorrow morning of
some dense fog around. | 0:33:33 | 0:33:39 |
