0:00:03 > 0:00:06Britain's most decorated Olympian Sir Bradley Wiggins

0:00:06 > 0:00:09and Team Sky are accused of crossing an ethical line

0:00:09 > 0:00:12in their use of drugs.

0:00:12 > 0:00:15A report by MPs said Sir Bradley and the team hadn't broken rules

0:00:15 > 0:00:20but had used medical treatments to enhance performance.

0:00:20 > 0:00:23What we've looked at in this report is whether there needs to be much

0:00:23 > 0:00:27tighter rules around the types of medication that can be used.

0:00:27 > 0:00:30Sir Bradley Wiggins and Team Sky strongly reject the allegations.

0:00:30 > 0:00:35Also this lunchtime:

0:00:35 > 0:00:37Theresa May promises to crack down on developers who buy up land

0:00:37 > 0:00:41but are slow to build new homes.

0:00:41 > 0:00:44The first humanitarian aid convoy for weeks gets into the beseiged

0:00:44 > 0:00:48Syrian enclave of Eastern Ghouta.

0:00:48 > 0:00:51Millions of people are told to limit their water use as thawing

0:00:51 > 0:00:53temperatures cause burst pipes.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56And Gary Oldman has a message for his mum after his portrayal

0:00:56 > 0:01:00of Winston Churchill wins him the Oscar for Best Actor.

0:01:00 > 0:01:04I say to my mother, thank you for your love and support.

0:01:04 > 0:01:07Put the kettle on.

0:01:07 > 0:01:12I'm bringing Oscar home.

0:01:12 > 0:01:15And coming up in the sport: The FA Chief Executive apologises

0:01:15 > 0:01:18for using the star of David and the Swastika as examples

0:01:18 > 0:01:20when asked why they are charging Pep Guardiola for wearing

0:01:20 > 0:01:28a yellow ribbon.

0:01:42 > 0:01:44Good afternoon and welcome to the BBC News at One.

0:01:44 > 0:01:47The champion cyclist Sir Bradley Wiggins and his former

0:01:47 > 0:01:50employers at Team Sky have been criticised for "crossing

0:01:50 > 0:01:57an ethical line" by MPs in a report on doping in sport.

0:01:59 > 0:02:01The Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Committee says

0:02:01 > 0:02:03Sir Bradley used drugs not just for medical purposes

0:02:03 > 0:02:04but to enhance performance.

0:02:04 > 0:02:06Sir Bradly became the first British rider to win

0:02:06 > 0:02:09the Tour de France in 2012.

0:02:09 > 0:02:11Both he and Team Sky say they "strongly refute" the allegations,

0:02:11 > 0:02:17as Richard Conway now reports.

0:02:17 > 0:02:22He is a sporting icon, the Tour de France winner and Britain's most

0:02:22 > 0:02:26decorated Olympian, but a damning report has accused Sir Bradley

0:02:26 > 0:02:30Wiggins of unethical behaviour over his use of drugs that MPs say were

0:02:30 > 0:02:35taken to boost performance and not just for medical need.These do not

0:02:35 > 0:02:39constitute a breach of the doping rules as such, but do those rules

0:02:39 > 0:02:43need to be changed if there are very powerful drugs that have performance

0:02:43 > 0:02:47enhancing properties that can be used by athletes in competition?

0:02:47 > 0:02:52Should those rules be changed? It is ultimately a test that the team has

0:02:52 > 0:02:57set for themselves.The report says team sky crust and ethical line set

0:02:57 > 0:03:01out by its founder Sir David Brailsford by using the

0:03:01 > 0:03:05anti-inflammatory drug to prepare at Bradley for the 2012 Tour de France

0:03:05 > 0:03:10which he went on to win. There are now growing calls for Sir David

0:03:10 > 0:03:13Brailsford to take responsibility for what MPs have labelled failures.

0:03:13 > 0:03:21He and Bradley Wiggins have not come up with the complete story that

0:03:21 > 0:03:26makes sense which is truthful, so we need some real honesty otherwise

0:03:26 > 0:03:29their reputations will be in tatters and I am not sure they can ever come

0:03:29 > 0:03:34back from the mire they are in at the moment.In response to the

0:03:34 > 0:03:38report, Sir Bradley Wiggins refuted the claim saying, I find it so sad

0:03:38 > 0:03:43that accusation can be made where people can be accused of things they

0:03:43 > 0:03:48have never done which I then regarded as facts. Team sky strongly

0:03:48 > 0:03:53refute the claims as well and say, we take our responsibility to the

0:03:53 > 0:03:57sport seriously. We are committed to creating an environment at team sky

0:03:57 > 0:04:02where riders can perform to the best of their ability and do it clean.

0:04:02 > 0:04:06The details in this report came about after MPs heard evidence at

0:04:06 > 0:04:10Westminster, but the shock waves have spread far and wide into the

0:04:10 > 0:04:17world of cycling and into athletics. MPs claim Lord Coe, the president of

0:04:17 > 0:04:20athletics world governing body provided misleading answers over

0:04:20 > 0:04:26when he first knew

0:04:40 > 0:04:41about corruption and doping allegations with Russian athletes.

0:04:41 > 0:04:45Lord Coe told the committee he was not aware of specific claims before

0:04:45 > 0:04:47they were made in a German TV documentary, but the report said it

0:04:47 > 0:04:49stretch credibility to believe he was not aware at least in general

0:04:49 > 0:04:52terms. In response the IAAF said, it takes the fight against doping very

0:04:52 > 0:04:54seriously and over the last 14 months the organisation has

0:04:54 > 0:04:56introduced a set of wide-ranging reforms.There is nobody I know who

0:04:56 > 0:05:00would want a guilty athlete to get away with it, none of us. What we do

0:05:00 > 0:05:04want is that same reassurance that those governing bodies who are there

0:05:04 > 0:05:10to protect those athletes and those competing athletes get it right.

0:05:10 > 0:05:15Elite sport has always been judged by the most slender margins. Its

0:05:15 > 0:05:18ethical margins are just as small. Richard Conway, BBC News.

0:05:18 > 0:05:20Richard Conway, BBC News.

0:05:20 > 0:05:25Our correspondent, David Ornstein, is at the Manchester Velodrome.

0:05:25 > 0:05:31Another difficult day for cycling and for some of its biggest names.

0:05:31 > 0:05:37That is right. After years of being dragged through the mud and admired

0:05:37 > 0:05:39by doping controversies, cycling thought it had got through the worst

0:05:39 > 0:05:44of it and cleaned up its act, largely led by Great Britain and

0:05:44 > 0:05:48team sky. It seemed that brighter horizons were in front of them.

0:05:48 > 0:05:52However, they are back where they were many years ago through the

0:05:52 > 0:05:58Lance Armstrong crisis and if you think Great Britain, Britain's most

0:05:58 > 0:06:03successful Olympic sport, cycling, and Sir Bradley Wiggins, the most

0:06:03 > 0:06:06decorated Olympian, and team sky were set up on the premise of being

0:06:06 > 0:06:11whiter than white with a zero tolerance approach to doping and

0:06:11 > 0:06:15ethics and here they are facing serious questions. Sir Bradley

0:06:15 > 0:06:19Wiggins, one of the biggest names in British sport, Sir David Brailsford,

0:06:19 > 0:06:24the architect behind team sky, and so many great memories for the team

0:06:24 > 0:06:29at this place behind me, also known as the metal factory. Where do they

0:06:29 > 0:06:33go from here and what more further repercussions could come the way of

0:06:33 > 0:06:41cycling as a whole? We are thinking about further investigations,

0:06:41 > 0:06:42further allegations potentially, possibly the criminalisation of

0:06:42 > 0:06:49doping in the UK, like in some other countries. There have been calls for

0:06:49 > 0:06:53that today. Possibly the banning of the substances mentioned in the

0:06:53 > 0:06:58report. Britain's most current successful cyclist on the road,

0:06:58 > 0:07:03Chris Froome, is facing allegations himself. He returned an adverse

0:07:03 > 0:07:07analytical finding just recently. It seems we have not heard the end of

0:07:07 > 0:07:10this yet.David Ornstein.

0:07:10 > 0:07:11David Ornstein.

0:07:11 > 0:07:18The Prime Minister has announced a shake-up

0:07:18 > 0:07:20of planning rules in England, saying young people without family

0:07:20 > 0:07:23wealth "were right to be angry" at not being able to buy a home.

0:07:23 > 0:07:26Theresa May said construction firms which have been slow to build

0:07:26 > 0:07:29new homes could be refused planning permission in the future.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31Ministers have also warned councils that they will face sanctions

0:07:31 > 0:07:32if they underestimate future housing needs.

0:07:32 > 0:07:37Our political correspondent, Jonathan Blake, reports.

0:07:37 > 0:07:42Building your way out of the housing crisis. Theresa May on a visit to a

0:07:42 > 0:07:46development in East London this morning to see new homes being built

0:07:46 > 0:07:50but too many young people are in her words, rightly angry that they

0:07:50 > 0:07:54cannot afford. She had a message to the company is building in doubles

0:07:54 > 0:07:58back new homes, step up and speed up.We are going to make it much

0:07:58 > 0:08:04harder for unscrupulous developers to dodge the obligation to build

0:08:04 > 0:08:08homes people can afford. The government will make sure land is

0:08:08 > 0:08:11available for homes and make sure our young people have the skills

0:08:11 > 0:08:15needed to build them. In return, I expect developers to do their duty

0:08:15 > 0:08:19for Britain and build the homes of our country needs.Too often

0:08:19 > 0:08:24developers are too slow to build on land they bought, so local councils

0:08:24 > 0:08:29should be able to take into account their record. The rewrite of

0:08:29 > 0:08:32planning rules was also promised with ministers now consulting on

0:08:32 > 0:08:36changes to guidance for local authorities. The government's

0:08:36 > 0:08:41opponents say it is nowhere near enough.People will take some

0:08:41 > 0:08:45persuading that Theresa May and the Tories will get tough on developers.

0:08:45 > 0:08:49They have spent the last few years making planning rules weaker and

0:08:49 > 0:08:52they have created loopholes which lock in high profits for developer

0:08:52 > 0:08:58else. The test now is action, not the words we have heard this

0:08:58 > 0:09:03morning.The housing shortage is a problem for all parts of the UK. The

0:09:03 > 0:09:07Scottish government has pledged to build 50,000 affordable homes by

0:09:07 > 0:09:122021 and the Welsh government has launched two new schemes to help

0:09:12 > 0:09:15people buy their homes. The government admits there is a crisis

0:09:15 > 0:09:20and is keen to show that is an action. But there is little new

0:09:20 > 0:09:24intraday's announcement, and with people opposed to more radical

0:09:24 > 0:09:28solutions like building on the green belt, the options are limited. The

0:09:28 > 0:09:32dream of home ownership Theresa May spoke about remains a dream for

0:09:32 > 0:09:33many.

0:09:33 > 0:09:36spoke about remains a dream for many.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39Our Assistant Political Editor Norman Smith is in Westminster.

0:09:39 > 0:09:41Will these plans make a difference for young people

0:09:41 > 0:09:46struggling to buy a home?

0:09:46 > 0:09:50I don't think anyone believes a consultation on rewriting the

0:09:50 > 0:09:55planning rules is of itself going to solve our housing crisis which is

0:09:55 > 0:09:58becoming something of a national scandal. Ministers today pointed out

0:09:58 > 0:10:03the ratio between the cost of a house and average salaries is now

0:10:03 > 0:10:08worse in Britain than anywhere else in the developed world. There is a

0:10:08 > 0:10:12certain familiarity to a lot of what we heard today. I have lost count of

0:10:12 > 0:10:17the number of prime ministers who pledged to tackle the housing

0:10:17 > 0:10:21crisis, talking about stripping down the planning rules, turning up the

0:10:21 > 0:10:24heat on local councils, putting the screws on developers and again today

0:10:24 > 0:10:29we have had the same familiar response. Local councils saying do

0:10:29 > 0:10:43not blame us, we approve nine out of ten planning

0:10:46 > 0:10:49applications, give us the money to build and we will do it. Developers

0:10:49 > 0:10:52are saying when we buy land we don't want to sit on it, we would like to

0:10:52 > 0:10:55develop, but you have attached so many conditions on infrastructure

0:10:55 > 0:10:57that is the reason for the delay. The criticism you hear more and more

0:10:57 > 0:11:00at Westminster is such is the scale, do we need more radical action, such

0:11:00 > 0:11:02as building on the green belt, hugely controversial. Or possibly

0:11:02 > 0:11:06allowing councils to borrow to build council houses like they did in the

0:11:06 > 0:11:1160s and 70s, or putting in government money. Theresa May's view

0:11:11 > 0:11:17is much more cautious. She does not think that there is a silver bullet,

0:11:17 > 0:11:21she thinks you need a much more incremental approach, which means

0:11:21 > 0:11:32change will be gradual and take time.

0:11:32 > 0:11:35time.80 previous unknown cases of aid workers harming people or

0:11:35 > 0:11:42putting them at risk has now evolved. Seven charities reported

0:11:42 > 0:11:46cases that occurred in the last financial year. The new figures were

0:11:46 > 0:11:49released at a meeting of charity leaders and ministers in London

0:11:49 > 0:11:52which is discussing ways to protect people in need.

0:11:52 > 0:11:53people in need.

0:11:53 > 0:11:56An aid convoy of almost 50 lorries has entered the Syrian rebel

0:11:56 > 0:11:58enclave of eastern Ghouta, carrying humanitarian supplies

0:11:58 > 0:12:01to tens of thousands of people who've been trapped

0:12:01 > 0:12:04as government forces advance.

0:12:04 > 0:12:07It will be the first to reach the area since mid-February,

0:12:07 > 0:12:10despite a recent UN-backed ceasefire and short daily truces

0:12:10 > 0:12:12ordered by Russia.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15Let's speak now to our correspondent Martin Patience who's in Beirut

0:12:15 > 0:12:21in neighbouring Lebanon.

0:12:21 > 0:12:28How big breakthrough is this for the agencies today?It is a huge

0:12:28 > 0:12:30breakthrough following intense international pressure and a two

0:12:30 > 0:12:36hour hold-up at a checkpoint. That convoy was finally allowed to enter

0:12:36 > 0:12:41the Eastern Ghouta. There are 46 trucks in all, but according to the

0:12:41 > 0:12:45UN three of those trucks were empty and the reason for that according to

0:12:45 > 0:12:50the UN was that the Syrian authorities had removed most of the

0:12:50 > 0:12:54medical supplies from the charts, including trauma pats. The reason

0:12:54 > 0:12:57that apparently happened was because the Syrian government does not want

0:12:57 > 0:13:04the rebels to receive treatment. But in total more than 25,000 people,

0:13:04 > 0:13:10most of them civilians, will receive some assistance today.Do you think

0:13:10 > 0:13:14that today's move means the temporary daily ceasefires are

0:13:14 > 0:13:22starting to work?This humanitarian convoy was supposed to move into

0:13:22 > 0:13:27eastern Ghouta during that five hour pause in the fighting, but according

0:13:27 > 0:13:31to a BBC correspondent on the ground the Syrian government carried out

0:13:31 > 0:13:35several air strikes during that period. There was also heavy

0:13:35 > 0:13:40artillery fire. What we have seen in the past couple of days is Syrian

0:13:40 > 0:13:43government troops advancing rapidly into eastern Ghouta and now reports

0:13:43 > 0:13:48are suggesting that the Syrian government controls a quarter of

0:13:48 > 0:13:53what is the last major rebel stronghold close to the capital.

0:13:53 > 0:13:57While some assistance has gone into eastern Ghouta, the fighting is far

0:13:57 > 0:14:06from over.Martin Patience.

0:14:06 > 0:14:09Our top story this lunchtime.

0:14:09 > 0:14:11The champion cyclist, Sir Bradley Wiggins,

0:14:11 > 0:14:14and Team Sky deny allegations by MPs that they used drugs

0:14:14 > 0:14:19to enhance performance, rather than for medical needs.

0:14:19 > 0:14:22And still to come, the RAF fly in emergency supplies to communities

0:14:22 > 0:14:30in Cumbria still cut off by the snow.

0:14:42 > 0:14:45Thousands of homes across the UK are without water, because of burst

0:14:45 > 0:14:47pipes caused by last week's freezing temperatures.

0:14:47 > 0:14:55Supplies have been affected in the South of England,

0:14:55 > 0:14:56Wales, the Midlands, Yorkshire and Scotland,

0:14:56 > 0:14:58with bottled water being handed out in some areas.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00Several water companies are advising customers

0:15:00 > 0:15:01against all but essential use.

0:15:01 > 0:15:08Emma Simpson reports.

0:15:08 > 0:15:13It's the fallout from the big freeze. Burst pipes. And there's

0:15:13 > 0:15:19lots of them.What is the damaged caused by him?Burst water main.

0:15:19 > 0:15:25This was cheddar in the south-west. This region has had an unprecedented

0:15:25 > 0:15:29number of burst mains. And here is another one. There have been big

0:15:29 > 0:15:34problems in parts of Wales as well. One resident in Carmarthenshire told

0:15:34 > 0:15:39us he's been without water since Thursday.Quite a difficult night.

0:15:39 > 0:15:44Not being able to wash properly, have a shave or wash the dishes.

0:15:44 > 0:15:51Keep the kitchen clean. So I've been collecting rainwater from the

0:15:51 > 0:15:57downpipe.This mamma has got hold of supplies. She's in south London, and

0:15:57 > 0:16:03lost her water last night. Her daughter's school needed to close as

0:16:03 > 0:16:11well.You don't expect it to happen in London.What has been the most

0:16:11 > 0:16:15tricky thing so far?The toilet, not being able to flush the toilet, and

0:16:15 > 0:16:22washing your hands, I have a two-year-old, so nappies and things

0:16:22 > 0:16:26like that.There have been a host of problems across many parts of London

0:16:26 > 0:16:31since the weekend. Thousands are still without water today. Thames

0:16:31 > 0:16:37Water resorted to handing out emergency supplies this morning, and

0:16:37 > 0:16:42demand was high.I've got five kids, and literally without water since

0:16:42 > 0:16:486am yesterday morning. It's terrible.Washing the bottles is

0:16:48 > 0:16:52difficult. There's a lot of stuff covered in baby to that I can't wash

0:16:52 > 0:17:00at the moment.7:30am, they said the water was fixed. Nothing is six.

0:17:00 > 0:17:06Engineers are out trying to fix the problems.Since the thaw over the

0:17:06 > 0:17:11weekend, although we expected leaks reported, the reaction has been

0:17:11 > 0:17:16incredible. We have seen an incredible increase. About 500

0:17:16 > 0:17:20million extra litres of water has been pumped into the system to cope

0:17:20 > 0:17:26with the extra demand.Water companies are urging people to use

0:17:26 > 0:17:30as little water as possible until things get back to normal. The

0:17:30 > 0:17:32question is when.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34Days after the big freeze, many of us are basking

0:17:34 > 0:17:35in the relatively mild weather.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38But spare a thought for several communities in Cumbria -

0:17:38 > 0:17:41where some areas are unreachable by road because of huge snow drifts.

0:17:41 > 0:17:43Now, the RAF has been called in to deliver emergency supplies.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45Food, coal and heating appliances are being delivered

0:17:45 > 0:17:48by helicopter to people, some of whom have been cut-off

0:17:48 > 0:17:49for at least five days.

0:17:49 > 0:17:57Dan Johnson is in Carlisle.

0:17:58 > 0:18:02That is the helicopter that is delivering those emergency supplies

0:18:02 > 0:18:07to these remote villages. This is Carlisle airport, where there's very

0:18:07 > 0:18:11little snow. It's hard to believe conditions are that bad, but this

0:18:11 > 0:18:17has become a temporary airbase, with that helicopter being loaded up with

0:18:17 > 0:18:22supplies of food, baby milk, logs, heating equipment, and that being

0:18:22 > 0:18:27flown out across the Pennines to some of these remote communities.

0:18:27 > 0:18:32These are very small hamlets, high in the hills, that have been cut for

0:18:32 > 0:18:37days now. The County Council says it is trying to get through the roads

0:18:37 > 0:18:41there with snowploughs and gritters, but it has failed so far. It says it

0:18:41 > 0:18:46will take a further two days to get through by load, -- by road, which

0:18:46 > 0:18:52is why the decision was taken to call in the military. Marines who

0:18:52 > 0:18:57are just back from Arctic training have been out on that helicopter

0:18:57 > 0:19:02this morning, and they will be back this afternoon dropping more

0:19:02 > 0:19:05supplies to these communities who have been cut off high in the

0:19:05 > 0:19:09Pennines. It's difficult to work. They don't know exactly what the

0:19:09 > 0:19:13conditions will be like when they arrive, and the snowdrifts are very

0:19:13 > 0:19:18high. It has been so thick that the snowploughs and the gritters haven't

0:19:18 > 0:19:23been able to get through yet. Hopefully they will have been able

0:19:23 > 0:19:26to deliver some relief to those communities, where apparently people

0:19:26 > 0:19:34have been soaring up furniture and burning it to keep warm. The thaw

0:19:34 > 0:19:39may now be widespread, but there is still an impact is being felt from

0:19:39 > 0:19:42last week's storm.Dan, many thanks.

0:19:42 > 0:19:44Industry figures show new car sales fell again in February.

0:19:44 > 0:19:46The Society for Motor Manufacturers and Traders recorded a drop

0:19:46 > 0:19:49of 2.8% compared to the same period a year ago.

0:19:49 > 0:19:52The body said it was due to a continuing slump in the sale

0:19:52 > 0:19:56of diesel vehicles.

0:19:56 > 0:19:58Gas and electricity companies are to be banned from charging

0:19:58 > 0:20:02customers for energy they used more than 12 months previously.

0:20:02 > 0:20:05The energy regulator, Ofgem, says the restriction on billing

0:20:05 > 0:20:08people retrospectively will cut down on shock bills - in extreme cases

0:20:08 > 0:20:11they have exceeded £10,000.

0:20:11 > 0:20:19Our Personal Finance Correspondent Simon Gompertz is here.

0:20:20 > 0:20:24Simon, how have they been able to send such huge bills?You might have

0:20:24 > 0:20:29been paying by direct debit, assuming you've been paying the

0:20:29 > 0:20:34right amount, perfectly open to them reading the meter, but they've been

0:20:34 > 0:20:37undercharging you because they've been underestimating your usage.

0:20:37 > 0:20:41This might have been going on for some time. So you can see why these

0:20:41 > 0:20:50huge bills... The average is around £1200, but some are as high as

0:20:50 > 0:20:54£10,000. For some people it is a massive shock and can drive them

0:20:54 > 0:20:58into serious debt. What is going to happen is you will not be able to

0:20:58 > 0:21:04send out bills like that as a supplier if you are willing for

0:21:04 > 0:21:09electricity or gas that was more than a year ago. Some people are

0:21:09 > 0:21:14going to be in the position where, over the next few months, until May

0:21:14 > 0:21:19when this comes in, they might get back bills, but after that time,

0:21:19 > 0:21:24they are going to be banned. For smaller businesses, they will be

0:21:24 > 0:21:27banned from November. They have been getting some of these big bills as

0:21:27 > 0:21:32well, but that will have to stop. Ofgem's estimate is that around

0:21:32 > 0:21:3610,000 people in one year have complained about this, but there

0:21:36 > 0:21:40will of course be many more who didn't go down to citizens advice or

0:21:40 > 0:21:44places like that to register their complaint. It will make a big

0:21:44 > 0:21:48difference, I think.Thank you.

0:21:48 > 0:21:49Italy's general election has delivered a hung parliament,

0:21:49 > 0:21:51and big gains for anti-establishment parties.

0:21:51 > 0:21:53The populist Five Star Movement will be

0:21:53 > 0:21:54the largest single party.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56But a right-wing coalition, including Forza Italia

0:21:56 > 0:21:58led by the former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi,

0:21:58 > 0:22:01and an anti-immigrant party - the League - are expected to form

0:22:01 > 0:22:03the biggest bloc.

0:22:03 > 0:22:04Gavin Lee reports from Rome.

0:22:04 > 0:22:05CHEERING

0:22:05 > 0:22:08Political deadlock in Italy, but it's

0:22:08 > 0:22:10the anti-establishment parties that are celebrating.

0:22:10 > 0:22:15Luigi Di Maio is the man of the moment.

0:22:15 > 0:22:18His Five Star Movement less than a decade old is now the biggest

0:22:18 > 0:22:21party in the country.

0:22:21 > 0:22:23It is promising political revolution, wary of the EU,

0:22:23 > 0:22:25and has drawn huge support from younger voters

0:22:25 > 0:22:26tired of the old order.

0:22:26 > 0:22:29When coalition talks get under way, they will feature a familiar face,

0:22:29 > 0:22:32who once promised radical change - ex-Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi.

0:22:32 > 0:22:35His support base is weaker now, but he stands in a centre-right

0:22:35 > 0:22:37alliance with the league party, and could still be

0:22:37 > 0:22:44a possible kingmaker.

0:22:44 > 0:22:46Most of the Italian press is predicting "Cambia Tutto"

0:22:46 > 0:22:49all change, and the election result brings about the possibility

0:22:49 > 0:22:52of an entirely populist coalition between the Five Star Movement

0:22:52 > 0:22:55and the League party, which has had a huge rise

0:22:55 > 0:22:57in support and campaigns under a Donald Trump-inspired

0:22:57 > 0:22:59slogan, "Italy first".

0:22:59 > 0:23:02Its manifesto also pledges to deport 600,000 migrants who've arrived

0:23:02 > 0:23:08here in the past few years.

0:23:08 > 0:23:11TRANSLATION:Millions of Italians have asked us to retake

0:23:11 > 0:23:14control of this country, to free it from uncertainty,

0:23:14 > 0:23:16and insecurity, after the laws created by Brussels,

0:23:16 > 0:23:19migrant arrivals, bank failures, so I see it

0:23:19 > 0:23:21as a vote for the future.

0:23:21 > 0:23:25I think that the possibility of a coalition between

0:23:25 > 0:23:28the Five Star Movement and the league is quite

0:23:28 > 0:23:32there, but I'm not sure they will want to go solo.

0:23:32 > 0:23:35I don't think that the Northern League especially,

0:23:35 > 0:23:38the League and Mr Salvini, is going to try to do this

0:23:38 > 0:23:41without understanding understanding that he wants to project himself

0:23:41 > 0:23:44as the leader of the right, so he also needs the rest

0:23:44 > 0:23:49of the right to come with him into this possible coalition.

0:23:49 > 0:23:51It's the current government that is walking away

0:23:51 > 0:23:53wounded from this election, in third place.

0:23:53 > 0:23:55The ex-Prime Minister, Matteo Renzi, and the centre-left

0:23:55 > 0:23:59alliance promised stability, but that ideal has been rejected.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01People have clearly voted for change, a change that

0:24:01 > 0:24:03could worry other European leaders, already reluctantly

0:24:03 > 0:24:06dealing with Brexit.

0:24:06 > 0:24:10Gavin Lee, BBC News, Rome.

0:24:10 > 0:24:12One of the most significant political gatherings

0:24:12 > 0:24:15for a generation has got under way in China.

0:24:15 > 0:24:17The National People's Congress is considering a proposal that

0:24:17 > 0:24:19would keep President Xi Jinping in post indefinitely.

0:24:19 > 0:24:23Delegates are expected to vote on removing the two-term limit

0:24:23 > 0:24:27for the presidency later this week.

0:24:27 > 0:24:33In Beijing, our China correspondent Robin Brant reports.

0:24:33 > 0:24:35Marching music and a clapping crowd.

0:24:35 > 0:24:38This is the annual parliament gathering in a country where one

0:24:38 > 0:24:42party controls everything and almost no one gets to vote.

0:24:42 > 0:24:44This year, though, a big change is brewing

0:24:44 > 0:24:49because President Xi Jinping wants to stay on and on.

0:24:49 > 0:24:51No one inside the hall was talking about his plan

0:24:51 > 0:24:54to abolish term limits.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56These are heavily choreographed events, but outside,

0:24:56 > 0:25:03nothing short of joy.

0:25:12 > 0:25:14That view is hardly surprising.

0:25:14 > 0:25:15They are loyal deputies.

0:25:15 > 0:25:19They'll vote on the change at the weekend.

0:25:19 > 0:25:22Some may disagree in private but it's almost certain they will

0:25:22 > 0:25:25fall overwhelmingly into line.

0:25:25 > 0:25:28This annual event is set to last just over two weeks this year.

0:25:28 > 0:25:30A little longer than usual.

0:25:30 > 0:25:33So far, there's been mentions of tax reforms, the internet,

0:25:33 > 0:25:35the military, but it's unlikely we are going to hear

0:25:35 > 0:25:38about the big, big issue - the change that could see Xi Jinping

0:25:38 > 0:25:42serving for, well, as long as he wants.

0:25:42 > 0:25:44Before that, though, there's other important

0:25:44 > 0:25:46business to be done.

0:25:46 > 0:25:48Day one kicked off with China's economy, key to world growth.

0:25:48 > 0:26:146.5% growth is the same as last year.

0:26:14 > 0:26:18A bigger boost in military spending was unveiled as well,

0:26:18 > 0:26:24announced to a crowd that represents all of this vast nation.

0:26:24 > 0:26:29But people like Hu Jia is not welcome in Xi Jinping's China.

0:26:29 > 0:26:32A long-time human rights activist, he's been sent away from his Beijing

0:26:32 > 0:26:37home with government minders while the politicians meet.

0:26:37 > 0:26:40Detaining or removing people like him has become increasingly

0:26:40 > 0:26:43common under this president.

0:26:43 > 0:26:47The prospect of an indefinite reign for Xi Jinping fills him with dread.

0:26:47 > 0:26:52Robin Brant, BBC News, Beijing.

0:26:52 > 0:26:55Gary Oldman has led a night of British successes at the Oscars,

0:26:55 > 0:26:57winning the Best Actor award for his portrayal of

0:26:57 > 0:26:59Winston Churchill in Darkest Hour.

0:26:59 > 0:27:01There was also a win for The Silent Child,

0:27:01 > 0:27:04the film starring six-year-old Maisie Sly from

0:27:04 > 0:27:05Swindon, who is deaf.

0:27:05 > 0:27:08After months of revelations about harassment in Hollywood,

0:27:08 > 0:27:11the ceremony was a chance for stars to appeal for inclusion,

0:27:11 > 0:27:14with the winner of Best Actress, Frances McDormand, persuading every

0:27:14 > 0:27:16female nominee to stand with her.

0:27:16 > 0:27:20James Cook was watching.

0:27:20 > 0:27:25After a year of darkness, a splash of colour returned to Hollywood.

0:27:25 > 0:27:28The black threads of protest were gone, although the determination

0:27:28 > 0:27:31to call 'Time's Up' on abuse and to create a more

0:27:31 > 0:27:34inclusive industry remained.

0:27:34 > 0:27:38If I may be so honoured to have all the female nominees in every

0:27:38 > 0:27:42category stand with me in this room tonight...

0:27:42 > 0:27:43Best Actress winner Frances McDormand had

0:27:43 > 0:27:48a message for the moguls.

0:27:48 > 0:27:51Look around, ladies and gentlemen, because we all have stories to tell

0:27:51 > 0:27:55and projects we need financed.

0:27:55 > 0:27:59And the winner is Gary Oldman, Darkest Hour.

0:27:59 > 0:28:02For his transformation into Winston Churchill,

0:28:02 > 0:28:04the British actor saw V for Victory and he thanked his

0:28:04 > 0:28:0698-year-old mother.

0:28:06 > 0:28:13I say to my mother, thank you for your love and support.

0:28:13 > 0:28:18Put the kettle on, I'm bringing Oscar home!

0:28:18 > 0:28:20Congratulations!

0:28:20 > 0:28:24There were four more British wins, including one for The Silent Child,

0:28:24 > 0:28:28a short film about a deaf little girl from Wiltshire.

0:28:28 > 0:28:34I made a promise to our six-year-old lead actress that

0:28:34 > 0:28:35I'd sign this speech.

0:28:35 > 0:28:38My hands are shaking a little bit so I apologise.

0:28:38 > 0:28:42Allison Janney won Best Supporting Actress for playing

0:28:42 > 0:28:45the meanest of mothers in I, Tonya.

0:28:45 > 0:28:48I did it all by myself!

0:28:48 > 0:28:51She went on to thank a long list of people, and a parrot.

0:28:51 > 0:28:53A Fantastic Woman!

0:28:53 > 0:28:55For the first time, the foreign-language award went

0:28:55 > 0:28:57to Chile for a film starring a transgender actress playing

0:28:57 > 0:29:01a transgender character.

0:29:01 > 0:29:07Daniela Vega.

0:29:07 > 0:29:10Jordan Peele, Get Out.

0:29:10 > 0:29:12This was the first time a black writer had won

0:29:12 > 0:29:14Best Original Screenplay.

0:29:14 > 0:29:17I stopped writing this movie about 20 times

0:29:17 > 0:29:18because I thought it was impossible.

0:29:18 > 0:29:20It thought it wasn't going to work.

0:29:20 > 0:29:22I thought no one would ever make with this movie,

0:29:22 > 0:29:26but I kept coming back to it because I knew if someone let me

0:29:26 > 0:29:28make this movie that people would hear it and people

0:29:28 > 0:29:29would see it.

0:29:29 > 0:29:31James Ivory, Call Me By Your Name.

0:29:31 > 0:29:33This writer made history too.

0:29:33 > 0:29:38At 89, he's the oldest ever Oscar winner.

0:29:38 > 0:29:41But politics and protests were never far away.

0:29:41 > 0:29:46Three of Harvey Weinstein's accusers lined up to deliver this message.

0:29:46 > 0:29:49The changes we are witnessing are being driven by the powerful

0:29:49 > 0:29:53sound of new voices, of different voices,

0:29:53 > 0:29:57of our voices joining together in a mighty chorus that is finally

0:29:57 > 0:30:02saying "Time's Up".

0:30:02 > 0:30:05And the Oscar goes to...

0:30:05 > 0:30:08Last year, this famous duo announced the wrong winner.

0:30:08 > 0:30:10No such problem this time.

0:30:10 > 0:30:14The Shape of Water.

0:30:14 > 0:30:18Although the director wanted to make sure!

0:30:18 > 0:30:22The greatest thing our art does and our industry does is to erase

0:30:22 > 0:30:23the lines in the sand.

0:30:23 > 0:30:26We should continue doing that when the world tells us

0:30:26 > 0:30:28to make them deeper.

0:30:28 > 0:30:32So inclusion was the theme, change really is coming

0:30:32 > 0:30:34to Hollywood was the message.

0:30:34 > 0:30:38James Cook, BBC News, Los Angeles.

0:30:38 > 0:30:40Time for a look at the weather...

0:30:40 > 0:30:41Here's Matt Taylor.

0:30:47 > 0:30:50Change is already here for some weather-wise. Across parts of

0:30:50 > 0:30:57Scotland, you can see that he's no clear up continues. A fairly manual

0:30:57 > 0:31:02process, especially with snow still falling for some. Across other parts

0:31:02 > 0:31:10of the country, the thaw is more natural. We are not completely done

0:31:10 > 0:31:14with snow and frost, as I will show you. Back to Saturday, the blue

0:31:14 > 0:31:20colours are where we saw temperatures below freezing. Now it

0:31:20 > 0:31:25is confined to the hills in northern areas, with most places seeing

0:31:25 > 0:31:28positive temperatures, and across England and Wales, it probably does

0:31:28 > 0:31:35feel like spring with a bit of sunshine. Low pressure is with us to

0:31:35 > 0:31:41start the week, the same area will be around all week long. One such

0:31:41 > 0:31:47rainy band pushing into southern counties today. Rain will extend

0:31:47 > 0:31:52through the afternoon and the evening rush hour across Wales, the

0:31:52 > 0:31:56Midlands and parts of southern England. As the rain pushes its way

0:31:56 > 0:32:02northwards, the tops of the Pennines could see a bit of snow. Away from

0:32:02 > 0:32:06that, some clear skies here and there. Still the chance of some

0:32:06 > 0:32:11breaks in the cloud, especially in the south. We could see a bit of

0:32:11 > 0:32:16frost, light winds and some fog tomorrow morning. A murky start just

0:32:16 > 0:32:23about anywhere. Some snow on the hills in Scotland tomorrow. Any

0:32:23 > 0:32:26showers in Northern Ireland clear away. Drive for much of England and

0:32:26 > 0:32:31Wales after the great start. One or two showers, especially in Wales and

0:32:31 > 0:32:35towards the south-west. Feeling quite mild in many places. Low

0:32:35 > 0:32:42pressure with us for the rest of the week. Through Tuesday and into the

0:32:42 > 0:32:46Wednesday, the cold air confined to the far north of Scotland. Some snow

0:32:46 > 0:32:52in the Highlands and Islands in particular. Patchy frost on

0:32:52 > 0:32:56Wednesday morning, and some showers across south-west England and Wales.

0:32:56 > 0:33:00Some sleet could be mixed in on the tops of the hills. Some sunshine

0:33:00 > 0:33:06mixed in as well. Temperatures around normal for the time of year.

0:33:06 > 0:33:11Frost day in places and a foggy start for Thursday. Just a small

0:33:11 > 0:33:15chance of heavy rain pushing through the English Channel and some snow

0:33:15 > 0:33:18return to the Highlands later.

0:33:18 > 0:33:20A reminder of our main story this lunchtime...

0:33:20 > 0:33:23Sir Bradley Wiggins and Team Sky have denied allegations by MPs

0:33:23 > 0:33:25that they used drugs to enhance performance, rather

0:33:25 > 0:33:28than for medical needs.

0:33:28 > 0:33:32That's all from the BBC News at One, so it's goodbye from me -

0:33:32 > 0:33:35and on BBC One we now join the BBC's news teams where you are.
