:00:00. > :00:08.Hello, this is Breakfast, with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin.

:00:09. > :00:12.A man is shot dead by police in an operation near the M62

:00:13. > :00:18.West Yorkshire Police say the operation was pre-planned,

:00:19. > :00:22.It is the fifth fatal police shooting in England and Wales

:00:23. > :00:44.The Independent Police Complaints Commission is investigating.

:00:45. > :00:46.Good morning, it is Tuesday 3 January Also this morning:

:00:47. > :00:49.The average child is eating three cubes worth of sugar for breakfast,

:00:50. > :00:59.British workers spend six times as much as employees across Europe

:01:00. > :01:02.on rail fares, according to a new study.

:01:03. > :01:06.Over ?1 billion has been set aside to build thousands of new homes

:01:07. > :01:08.for first-time buyers, but will it really help those

:01:09. > :01:10.struggling to get on the housing ladder?

:01:11. > :01:15.In sport: Liverpool stay second in the Premier League,

:01:16. > :01:18.despite only managing a draw at struggling Sunderland.

:01:19. > :01:21.The Reds were ahead twice, but were twice pegged back,

:01:22. > :01:34.Gary Barlow searches for wannabe stars to play him and his Take That

:01:35. > :01:42.And Carol has the weather from London Zoo.

:01:43. > :01:52.Good morning, Carol. Good morning. Happy New Year. I met London Zoo

:01:53. > :01:59.because today it is the 200 annual stock take of the animals. -- 200.

:02:00. > :02:03.It is nice and toasty inside the reptile house at outside it is

:02:04. > :02:07.called, a bit of ice with some sunshine and rain in the north, and

:02:08. > :02:12.here it is rather breezy. Take a look at this. Very cute. Lovely!

:02:13. > :02:13.More of that later, and Carol as well.

:02:14. > :02:17.First, our main story: A man has been shot dead by police

:02:18. > :02:20.in an operation near the M62 motorway in Huddersfield yesterday

:02:21. > :02:23.West Yorkshire Police say an officer's gun was discharged

:02:24. > :02:26.and at least one person was arrested, but gave

:02:27. > :02:29.The Independent Police Complaints Commission has sent investigators

:02:30. > :02:33.It is the fifth fatal police shooting in England and Wales

:02:34. > :02:44.Our home affairs correspondent Danny Shaw reports.

:02:45. > :02:53.The shooting happened shortly after 6pm yesterday evening on a slip road

:02:54. > :02:56.near Henley top at Huddersfield. West Yorkshire Police say the

:02:57. > :03:00.incident took place during preplanned policing operation,

:03:01. > :03:04.suggesting officers had acted on intelligence rather than responding

:03:05. > :03:08.to an unexpected event. The force said a police firearm was discharged

:03:09. > :03:11.and a man died. No one else is believed to have been injured. The

:03:12. > :03:15.Independent Police Complaints Commission was informed, and has set

:03:16. > :03:18.its own investigators to the scene, which has been cordoned off.

:03:19. > :03:22.Photographs from the area appeared to indicate that a number of

:03:23. > :03:25.unmarked police vehicles may have stopped a car on the slip road

:03:26. > :03:31.before the shooting, though that hasn't been confirmed. Although

:03:32. > :03:34.fatal police shootings are rare, it is the fifth such incident in

:03:35. > :03:38.England and Wales in the last nine months, and the first involving West

:03:39. > :03:43.Yorkshire Police since December 20 ten. -- 2010.

:03:44. > :03:46.And the latest information about the motorway is the slip roads

:03:47. > :03:49.east and westbound at Junction 24 of the M62 remain closed.

:03:50. > :03:55.They are expected to stay closed until at least 10:00am this morning.

:03:56. > :03:57.Children in England are eating half their recommended daily sugar

:03:58. > :04:00.intake before they even get to school, that is the warning

:04:01. > :04:03.Public Health England say sugary cereals, juices and spreads

:04:04. > :04:06.are to blame and, at a time of spiralling obesity levels,

:04:07. > :04:09.have launched a campaign to help parents better understand

:04:10. > :04:25.If breakfast is the most important meal of the day...

:04:26. > :04:28.Millions of children consume over half their daily sugar allowance

:04:29. > :04:33.But a new campaign is aiming to curb that sugar rush.

:04:34. > :04:37.Many parents will think their breakfast cereals are healthy,

:04:38. > :04:44.that they're buying for their children,

:04:45. > :04:47.and they're actually rather surprised when they find out how

:04:48. > :04:53.There are better, low-sugar alternative breakfasts on the market

:04:54. > :04:56.that we would be encouraging parents to have a look at.

:04:57. > :04:58.Think about buying those for their children.

:04:59. > :05:02.Public Health England has launched an app to scan a barcode,

:05:03. > :05:04.and it will tell you how much sugar,

:05:05. > :05:13.And the results - well, they may be surprising.

:05:14. > :05:15.And that is the idea, to help parents make

:05:16. > :05:19.The average child in England has the equivalent of three cubes

:05:20. > :05:21.of sugar every morning for breakfast.

:05:22. > :05:30.The recommended daily maximum amount for children aged four to six years

:05:31. > :05:33.old is five cubes, and for seven to ten-year-olds, six cubes.

:05:34. > :05:36.By the end of the day, the average child consumes three

:05:37. > :05:39.times more than the daily recommended amount, up to 18

:05:40. > :05:42.With one in five children now starting primary school overweight

:05:43. > :05:45.or obese, perhaps now, more than ever, breakfast really

:05:46. > :05:52.is the most important meal of the day.

:05:53. > :05:59.Breakfast is something we talk about quite a lot here on reckless. --

:06:00. > :06:00.Breakfast. Later we will speaking

:06:01. > :06:03.to a GP about what makes Attempts to secure a peace deal

:06:04. > :06:08.in Syria have been suspended, after rebel groups accused

:06:09. > :06:10.government forces of Russia and Turkey, who brokered

:06:11. > :06:13.the current ceasefire, are trying to convene

:06:14. > :06:15.negotiations later this month. Meanwhile, Kurdish activists have

:06:16. > :06:18.told the BBC that a British man has been killed in Syria,

:06:19. > :06:20.fighting the Islamic State group. Ryan Lock, who was 20

:06:21. > :06:23.and from West Sussex, died just before Christmas,

:06:24. > :06:26.during the battle to try to retake 12 people have now been arrested

:06:27. > :06:32.after the attack on a Turkish nightclub at New Year,

:06:33. > :06:35.as the search for the gunman Yesterday, Turkish media reported

:06:36. > :06:38.that special forces had raided a house in Turkey after a tip-off,

:06:39. > :06:42.but the suspect was not found. So-called Islamic State have said

:06:43. > :06:45.it was behind the attack. With us from Istanbul

:06:46. > :06:59.is Selin Girit. Good morning to you. Can you update

:07:00. > :07:04.us on the latest this morning. There have been raids conducted by the

:07:05. > :07:07.Turkish Special Forces yesterday to several addresses in Istanbul, but

:07:08. > :07:14.the government is still on the run, as you have said. More details are

:07:15. > :07:17.emerging about his identity -- gunman. He is thought to be a man

:07:18. > :07:21.from Central Asian country, though which country we don't know yet. It

:07:22. > :07:26.is believed that the officials have confirmed his identity at the moment

:07:27. > :07:29.but they are not revealing that information for the time being. He

:07:30. > :07:35.travelled to Turkey in November last year, Turkish report suggests, with

:07:36. > :07:40.his wife and two children, in order not to attract attention. And his

:07:41. > :07:44.family is thought to be detained at the moment, according to reports

:07:45. > :07:46.taking place in Turkish media. The Islamic State group has claimed

:07:47. > :07:51.responsibility for the attack, and overnight 18 Islamic State militants

:07:52. > :07:53.have been killed in strikes conducted by Turkish village in

:07:54. > :08:00.Syria. British workers are spending up

:08:01. > :08:03.to a seventh of their income on rail fares, according to a study

:08:04. > :08:06.by the campaign group It says people in the UK spend six

:08:07. > :08:11.times as much on tickets compared The study also found fares have

:08:12. > :08:15.increased twice as much as wages Our reporter Leanne Brown

:08:16. > :08:32.is at King's Cross Station Indeed, it is the Christmas present

:08:33. > :08:38.that nobody asked for. Rail prices went up yesterday, with campaigners

:08:39. > :08:43.calling it a kick in the teeth. The trade union backed Action For Rail

:08:44. > :08:50.campaign says that some people are now spending 14% of their wages on

:08:51. > :08:54.their commute. Just to give you an example, if you are coming from

:08:55. > :09:01.Luton into London, that will cost you ?387 a month on a monthly pass.

:09:02. > :09:05.If you compare that with the rest of Europe, places like Rome and Paris,

:09:06. > :09:12.they pay around ?61 a month. They are calling it a rip-off, so their

:09:13. > :09:16.reaction is to protest. They are holding protests up and down the

:09:17. > :09:19.country at 100 different stations today, including here at King's

:09:20. > :09:24.Cross, a little later on this morning. The government says it is

:09:25. > :09:29.delivering the biggest modernisation programme of the century, but of

:09:30. > :09:33.course, as you say, many people back at work today so for them it will

:09:34. > :09:33.not seem very fair. Thank you very much.

:09:34. > :09:35.Donald Trump has dismissed North Korea's latest claim

:09:36. > :09:38.that it is developing a missile capable of delivering a nuclear

:09:39. > :09:42.In a New Year message, the North Korean leader,

:09:43. > :09:45.Kim Jong-un, said preparations had reached the final stage.

:09:46. > :09:47.However, on a brief message on Twitter, the US President-elect,

:09:48. > :09:55.Thousands of new-starter homes have been given the go-ahead to be built

:09:56. > :10:00.They will be exclusively for 23- to 40-years-olds, and will be at 20%

:10:01. > :10:15.It is good news, isn't it? That is the crucial thing, available to

:10:16. > :10:19.first home buyers between the ages of 23 and 40 and at 20% below the

:10:20. > :10:23.average price for the market. The hope is to help first home buyers

:10:24. > :10:27.who are struggling to get on the quality housing ladder, they can't

:10:28. > :10:32.get a deposit together, and as I said there is simply not enough

:10:33. > :10:36.homes available as it is. Crucially, they will be built on brown field

:10:37. > :10:40.sites, in towns and cities up and down the country which are already

:10:41. > :10:43.used. They may be old factories, disused industrial sites, so the

:10:44. > :10:48.money which has been set aside as ?1.2 billion and it will be used to

:10:49. > :10:51.basically clearer that land and make it more attractive to developers.

:10:52. > :10:55.Here is the Housing Minister explaining where the money will be

:10:56. > :10:59.spent. I think there is a lot of different things we need to do to

:11:00. > :11:02.help people in this country find more affordable housing. So we've

:11:03. > :11:07.got shared ownership, we've got the Help to Buy scheme, right to buy, if

:11:08. > :11:10.you are living in housing properties, and the ornamental

:11:11. > :11:14.solution is to build more homes that housing becomes more affordable. But

:11:15. > :11:17.that is going to take time, we can't just sit here and do nothing in the

:11:18. > :11:21.meantime so starter homes are crucial to ensuring young people

:11:22. > :11:24.have a chance to get on the housing ladder. Housing Minister and a sense

:11:25. > :11:28.that this is about trying to kill two birds with one stone. It is

:11:29. > :11:30.about building more houses but at the same time focusing on first-time

:11:31. > :11:32.buyers, as you said, long overdue. The centre-left think tank

:11:33. > :11:35.the Fabian Society has warned that Labour is too weak to

:11:36. > :11:37.win the next election. The society, which has been

:11:38. > :11:40.developing ideas for Labour for decades, has urged

:11:41. > :11:43.the party to form an alliance with the Scottish Nationalists

:11:44. > :11:45.and the Liberal Democrats if it Our political correspondent

:11:46. > :11:49.Eleanor Garnier is at Westminster. Eleanor, how much notice

:11:50. > :12:04.will the Labour Party be Well, it is certainly not the news

:12:05. > :12:08.that Labour MPs will want to start the New Year with, but really I

:12:09. > :12:12.don't think the findings in this report will be a surprise to many

:12:13. > :12:16.politicians here in Westminster. It is a pretty melancholy message that

:12:17. > :12:20.Labour is too weak to win yet too strong to fail, and the Fabian

:12:21. > :12:25.Society analysis points out that the party would need to win 3 million

:12:26. > :12:29.more votes than the Conservatives to win a majority at a general

:12:30. > :12:36.election. It also points out that the problem the party faces with

:12:37. > :12:41.Brexit, with the Tories and with UKIP, targeting the Labour's leave

:12:42. > :12:45.voters and the Liberal Democrats targeting the remain voters while

:12:46. > :12:49.Labour's own message on the one is muffled and inconsistent. We asked

:12:50. > :12:53.Jeremy Corbyn's offers what they thought about all of this, and they

:12:54. > :12:59.said the Labour leader offered the only genuine alternative to a failed

:13:00. > :13:02.political establishment. But not the news that the Labour Party will want

:13:03. > :13:07.to start the year with. Thank you very much for that this morning.

:13:08. > :13:11.A series of events to mark the 100th anniversary of one of the bloodiest

:13:12. > :13:14.battles of the First World War will take place in July.

:13:15. > :13:17.A public ballot will be held to select descendants of British

:13:18. > :13:19.soldiers to attend commemorations for the Battle of Passchendaele,

:13:20. > :13:23.More than 300,000 Allied troops and 260,000 Germans died

:13:24. > :13:42.Thank you for being with us. Happy New Year, everybody. Enjoy your

:13:43. > :13:49.commute to work, or some people taking their kids to school. Sally

:13:50. > :13:58.is here with the sport, and we have Defoe behind us, a very happy man.

:13:59. > :14:03.But there is a much less happy man. Some of his interviews are

:14:04. > :14:15.excruciating. In case you haven't seen it it is toe curling, Pat --

:14:16. > :14:20.Pep Guardiola gave a masterclass in passive aggressive behaviour, as he

:14:21. > :14:22.is obviously seething. One of those where he should have been given ten

:14:23. > :14:23.minutes to cool down. Liverpool missed the chance to keep

:14:24. > :14:26.the pressure on Premier League leaders Chelsea, by dropping

:14:27. > :14:28.points at Sunderland. Jurgen Klopp was left feeling

:14:29. > :14:31.unlucky, as the Black Cats came from behind twice to draw 2-2

:14:32. > :14:34.at the Stadium of Light. It leaves Liverpool five points

:14:35. > :14:37.behind the Londoners, Manchester City are back up

:14:38. > :14:43.to third in the table, But they had to play for an hour

:14:44. > :14:49.with only ten men after Fernandinho was sent off for

:14:50. > :14:51.a reckless challenge. Gael Clichy and Sergio Aguero

:14:52. > :14:53.were the City scorers. Leicester Tigers have

:14:54. > :14:58.sacked their Director Rugby, Richard Cockerill,

:14:59. > :15:01.after nearly eight years in charge. The club has never failed to reach

:15:02. > :15:03.the Premiership semi-finals under him, but they're currently

:15:04. > :15:08.fifth in the league. And Dutchman Michael van Gerwen has

:15:09. > :15:14.won his second World Darts Van Gerwen beat the reigning PDC

:15:15. > :15:20.champion, Scotland's Gary Anderson, 7-3 in last night's final

:15:21. > :15:24.at Alexandra Palace. He has had a fantastic year, winning

:15:25. > :15:38.something like 26 tournaments. Let's have a look at the front

:15:39. > :15:42.pages. One of the stories we are talking about, children eat three

:15:43. > :15:46.cubes of sugar at breakfast and parents are asked to show tough love

:15:47. > :15:51.and cut unhealthy food in a drive against obesity. Give your kids to

:15:52. > :15:56.go with eggs and spinach, they say. Would your kids a back? They would

:15:57. > :16:07.eat the scrambled eggs. What about yours? -- eat that? And Helen Mirren

:16:08. > :16:13.on the front of the paper in a waistcoat. The front page of the i,

:16:14. > :16:16.ice is declared war on Turkey. They say the terror group has developed

:16:17. > :16:22.an extensive network within the country. In the Guardian, mourners

:16:23. > :16:31.carry the coffin of one of the person-mac attack in Istanbul. --

:16:32. > :16:36.Reina. And children eating half of the sugar allowed at breakfast. The

:16:37. > :16:40.front page of the Times, rail fares six times higher than in Europe.

:16:41. > :16:44.They have a photo of one of the victims of the attack of the

:16:45. > :16:51.nightclub in Istanbul New Year's as well. The front page of the Sun, the

:16:52. > :16:57.honour system. It was blasted yesterday. The last surviving

:16:58. > :17:01.British dambusters hero was refused a gong. They are starting a campaign

:17:02. > :17:10.to make sure he gets one. The Mail are talking about queueing, and

:17:11. > :17:14.these people are holding cards loaded with funds from British

:17:15. > :17:18.taxpayers. Enter the Daily Mirror, Nigel Farage aide faces 20 years for

:17:19. > :17:28.blackmail John plot. And how to survive January. Don't go to the

:17:29. > :17:34.pub! -- blackmail drugs. Who did any Christmas shopping after Christmas?

:17:35. > :17:44.No. The kids spent some Christmas money. You are one of the few. The

:17:45. > :17:48.number of bargain hunters at shopping centres on New Year's day

:17:49. > :17:53.plans by half in just one year as more of us shop on the Internet. But

:17:54. > :17:56.it is slightly misleading. It suggests sales fell sharply, but

:17:57. > :18:00.they were pretty impressively online. It is people who did not

:18:01. > :18:04.fancy going out in the cold weather to do sales shopping and have done

:18:05. > :18:08.it online instead. We know about Black Friday and cyber Monday.

:18:09. > :18:11.People were doing that shopping online before Christmas instead of

:18:12. > :18:15.waiting for the sales after Christmas. This man has decided to

:18:16. > :18:22.do something different. Bradley Wiggins. What is he thinking? He has

:18:23. > :18:31.announced his retirement just last week. He has decided he would do the

:18:32. > :18:36.Channel 4 show The Jump. A really well-known reality show where

:18:37. > :18:42.celebrities... For hurting people! He says he really likes skiing.

:18:43. > :18:47.Jason Robinson, Robbie Fowler, Jade Jones are among the others

:18:48. > :18:51.competitors. It gets more competitive every year. They have

:18:52. > :18:59.been serious injuries like bad breaks. I can only imagine what the

:19:00. > :19:04.waiver forms are like that you have to sign any insurance for all of

:19:05. > :19:09.those people. I quite like this one from the Telegraph. It is mentioned

:19:10. > :19:13.in a lot of the papers. The Duchess of Cambridge, the photographs widely

:19:14. > :19:17.published worldwide, but now she has been given the ultimate recognition

:19:18. > :19:21.of her skills, and honorary membership of the Royal photographic

:19:22. > :19:26.Society. Apparently she is regarded as a role model for other amateur

:19:27. > :19:29.photographers. I wanted to show you a believer in Wales because Carol

:19:30. > :19:35.has a snake! LAUGHTER

:19:36. > :19:45.-- beaver. Good morning from London Zoo. Look at that state. It is just

:19:46. > :19:49.hanging around. This is a snake with very large teeth. One of my

:19:50. > :19:58.favourites is this in Vivian. Good morning, Martin. -- amphibian. Look

:19:59. > :20:05.at him. Can you do see him there? I don't know if it is a he or she. So

:20:06. > :20:09.cute. You will find him in Australia in outhouses where there are fresh

:20:10. > :20:17.water supplies. He can live up to 16 years. They are often kept as pets.

:20:18. > :20:24.They shut their eyes to eat, which helps them swallow. But he is just

:20:25. > :20:27.gorgeous. We are nice and cosy inside the reptile house, but

:20:28. > :20:33.outside it is pretty cold this morning. The forecast is a bright

:20:34. > :20:38.and breezy one. There is some heavy rain and winds in the forecast.

:20:39. > :20:42.Vesting at nine o'clock, if you are stepping out, across southern

:20:43. > :20:48.England, blue skies, but watch out for ice on untreated surfaces --

:20:49. > :20:52.first thing. Into East Anglia, more cloud that still a lot of sunshine.

:20:53. > :20:57.Across the Midlands heading up the east coast of England, again, a lot

:20:58. > :21:03.of sunshine but cold and frosty. For Scotland, more cloud. In the north,

:21:04. > :21:09.rain and stronger winds, especially across Shetland, up to 60 mph. Spots

:21:10. > :21:13.of rain across western Scotland. Some of that getting across Northern

:21:14. > :21:18.Ireland. A lot of dry weather too. But fairly cloudy. Across north-west

:21:19. > :21:24.England, cloud with showers, getting in across north Wales. For south

:21:25. > :21:27.Wales and the south of England, especially into the south-west, a

:21:33. > :21:36.Through the course of the day, rain across the far north of Scotland

:21:37. > :21:40.moves a little further south. It will be windy and generally breezy

:21:41. > :21:45.in the northern half. There will be more cloud around than yesterday.

:21:46. > :21:49.For southern areas, hanging on to the sunshine for the lovers period

:21:50. > :21:54.of time. No heatwave on the clouds. As we head to the evening and

:21:55. > :22:01.overnight, rain for the final to Scotland and slipping southwards. --

:22:02. > :22:05.far north of Scotland. Some clear skies and then the weather front

:22:06. > :22:09.comes up bringing rain with clear skies behind. A windy night

:22:10. > :22:13.especially in the north. Booking at a touch of frost as temperatures

:22:14. > :22:20.slipped down to three or four or lower. For some parts, like this

:22:21. > :22:24.morning, -6 or possibly -7. We start with a weather front tomorrow in

:22:25. > :22:28.parts of England and Wales and continuing southwards. Windy

:22:29. > :22:32.especially Danny is close. That will blow showers across Lincolnshire,

:22:33. > :22:37.Yorkshire into East Anglia. -- down the east coast. I'd skies with fewer

:22:38. > :22:44.showers elsewhere, but it will fool cold wherever you are. For Thursday,

:22:45. > :22:49.a bit more clouds around. A weather front from the west will introduce

:22:50. > :22:53.spots of rain. Away from that, elsewhere, largely dry with fewer

:22:54. > :22:57.showers and as I mentioned, a bit more cloud. It could be a lot worse

:22:58. > :23:03.at this time of year. I'm glad to say it is not. That is good to hear!

:23:04. > :23:05.Thank you very much. More from you and your friends later. A nice way

:23:06. > :23:08.to start the New Year. Last year Jeremy Corbyn said

:23:09. > :23:11.he was convinced his party could climb the "electoral

:23:12. > :23:13.mountain" to success - but a new report by a left-of-centre

:23:14. > :23:17.think tank says Labour is "too weak" The Fabian Society says

:23:18. > :23:21.the securing an overall majority Joining us now from the Fabian

:23:22. > :23:31.Society is Andrew Harrop. Good morning. Thank you for joining

:23:32. > :23:35.us. What have you based your findings on and what have you found?

:23:36. > :23:39.We have looked at current polls and found that if they were translated

:23:40. > :23:46.into votes in the general election this year, Labour would get under

:23:47. > :23:53.200 seats in a new House of Commons. That would be its lowest performance

:23:54. > :23:57.since 1935. OK, and we know in some ways to question polls. How do you

:23:58. > :24:02.know this is right? We were of course sceptical as with everyone

:24:03. > :24:06.else, and we loved it passed balls and how far they got it wrong. In

:24:07. > :24:13.fact, they tend to overstate labour's performance -- we looked at

:24:14. > :24:21.past polls. He could sing to as low as 146. -- it could sink. If that

:24:22. > :24:25.were true, the Labour Party would become unelectable. At the moment,

:24:26. > :24:29.Labour has the same problem here that Clinton has just seen in the

:24:30. > :24:32.United States, which is even if they get more votes than the

:24:33. > :24:36.Conservatives, they would not get a majority unless they were way ahead

:24:37. > :24:40.-- Hillary Clinton. Labour could be in a good enough position if they

:24:41. > :24:43.move forward to form a minority government working with other

:24:44. > :24:48.parties, the chance of them getting a majority on their own are very

:24:49. > :24:52.slim. If you are looking at that, what are the parties you would be

:24:53. > :24:57.talking about? The electoral Mass and what of the result of an

:24:58. > :25:01.election was dictated. But if Labour wants to stop a Conservatives party

:25:02. > :25:04.and Theresa May forming another government they will need to think

:25:05. > :25:09.about working with the Liberal Democrats and possibly the SNP, even

:25:10. > :25:13.though that is very uncomfortable for people in the Labour Party.

:25:14. > :25:17.Would you be recommending a Labour candidate should not go up against a

:25:18. > :25:21.LibDem candidate? This report does not get into the detail of

:25:22. > :25:25.recommendations, it is good the facts on the table. The chances of

:25:26. > :25:28.Labour winning a majority on their own are very low. The party will

:25:29. > :25:33.have to think about different ways of working with other people. Let's

:25:34. > :25:37.talk about your position in the Fabian Society. Some people in the

:25:38. > :25:42.labour movement might say this is very much Tony Blair's side of the

:25:43. > :25:46.party, and you would say this, wouldn't you? The Fabian Society is

:25:47. > :25:51.an organisation with members from across the Labour Party, left and

:25:52. > :25:55.right. This report really is not about Jeremy Corbyn. This current

:25:56. > :26:01.unpopularity is just one factor in the Labour Party's troubles. It is

:26:02. > :26:06.just as worrying that the 2015 election led to a huge meltdown in

:26:07. > :26:10.Scottish support and the rise of the SNP, and that stopped Labour making

:26:11. > :26:13.progress. Brexit is a huge problem as well. Labour needs to reach out

:26:14. > :26:17.to people who voted remain and leave. That will be true even if

:26:18. > :26:21.Jeremy Corbyn was not delayed. Andrew, thank you.

:26:22. > :26:25.Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are.

:26:26. > :29:54.Now, though, it's back to Dan and Louise.

:29:55. > :29:57.Hello, this is Breakfast, with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin.

:29:58. > :30:01.Coming up on Breakfast today: Thousands of new homes

:30:02. > :30:04.for first-time buyers will be built on brownfield sites this year.

:30:05. > :30:16.Ben will be here to tell us if the supply will meet the demand.

:30:17. > :30:19.Also this morning: We are talking about the revival of vinyl.

:30:20. > :30:22.Sales have jumped to their highest level in 25 years.

:30:46. > :30:47.one person was arrested, but gave few other details.

:30:48. > :30:50.The Independent Police Complaints Commission has sent investigators

:30:51. > :30:58.It is the fifth fatal police shooting in England and Wales

:30:59. > :31:02.And the latest information about the motorway is the slip roads

:31:03. > :31:05.east and westbound at Junction 24 of the M62 remain closed.

:31:06. > :31:12.They are expected to stay closed until at least 10:00am this morning.

:31:13. > :31:15.Children are eating half their recommended daily sugar intake

:31:16. > :31:17.before they even get to school, according to a warning

:31:18. > :31:22.Public Health England says sugary cereals,

:31:23. > :31:27.Today, it is launching a campaign to help us better understand

:31:28. > :31:35.Attempts to secure a peace deal in Syria have been suspended,

:31:36. > :31:36.after rebel groups accused government forces of

:31:37. > :31:42.Russia and Turkey, who brokered the current ceasefire,

:31:43. > :31:44.are trying to convene negotiations later this month.

:31:45. > :31:47.Meanwhile, Kurdish activists have told the BBC that a British man has

:32:05. > :32:07.Police say they have made 12 arrests so far.

:32:08. > :32:09.Yesterday, Turkish media reported that special forces had raided

:32:10. > :32:13.a house in Turkey after a tip-off, but the suspect was not found.

:32:14. > :32:16.So-called Islamic State have said it was behind the attack,

:32:17. > :32:24.which left 39 people dead and over 60 people in hospital.

:32:25. > :32:27.British workers are spending up to a seventh of their income on rail

:32:28. > :32:29.fares, according to a study by the campaign group

:32:30. > :32:42.The study found people commuting into London pay an average of ?387

:32:43. > :32:44.a month, compared with ?61 in Paris or Rome.

:32:45. > :32:47.The Government say wages are growing faster than regulated fares.

:32:48. > :32:51.Thousands of new starter homes have been given the go-ahead to be built

:32:52. > :32:54.The properties will be available for first-time buyers aged

:32:55. > :32:57.between 23 and 40, at 20% less than the market value.

:32:58. > :33:00.Labour says the target of 200,000 starter homes

:33:01. > :33:07.The centre-left think tank the Fabian Society has warned that

:33:08. > :33:10.Labour is too weak to win the next election.

:33:11. > :33:12.The society, which has been developing ideas for Labour

:33:13. > :33:15.for decades, has urged the party to form an alliance

:33:16. > :33:18.with the Scottish Nationalists and the Liberal Democrats if it

:33:19. > :33:22.Its analysis of polling and election data suggests the party could hold

:33:23. > :33:33.A series of events to mark the 100th anniversary of one of the bloodiest

:33:34. > :33:36.battles of the First World War will take place in July.

:33:37. > :33:39.A public ballot will be held to select descendants of British

:33:40. > :33:42.soldiers to attend commemorations for the Battle of Passchendaele,

:33:43. > :33:46.More than 300,000 Allied troops and 260,000 Germans died

:33:47. > :33:56.Vinyl sales are at the highest they have ever been in 25 years,

:33:57. > :33:59.with more than 3.2 million records sold last year.

:34:00. > :34:01.It marks the ninth consecutive year that sales have grown.

:34:02. > :34:04.It is believed sales have been increased because of events such

:34:05. > :34:07.as Record Store Day, and an increasing audience

:34:08. > :34:25.It is back. It has never been anywhere else in my house. People

:34:26. > :34:31.buying record players for Christmas, aren't they? I bought one last year

:34:32. > :34:36.for Christmas. You are ahead of the curve.

:34:37. > :34:38.The world's steepest residential road has been confirmed,

:34:39. > :34:41.and you wouldn't want to live at the top of it.

:34:42. > :34:44.The winner is Baldwin Street, which is in New Zealand's South

:34:45. > :34:51.At its steepest, the slope has a gradient of 35%,

:34:52. > :34:55.It is a road that must strike fear into anyone delivering post

:34:56. > :34:57.or newspapers, let alone anyone trying to cycle up it.

:34:58. > :35:03.That is what you would spend most of your time doing. Oh my goodness me.

:35:04. > :35:06.Imagine living on that road. And they have assigned confirming that

:35:07. > :35:18.they are the world's steepest street. Well done to them. And a big

:35:19. > :35:22.day of football yesterday. A busy day for our colleagues in BBC sport,

:35:23. > :35:26.doing their postmatch interviews with managers, some more happy than

:35:27. > :35:33.others. We will show you now what I can only describe as a really

:35:34. > :35:36.awkward exchange between Batman back, Pep Guardiola, and let's

:35:37. > :35:38.remind ourselves that his side won. We are going to show you the

:35:39. > :35:44.pictures right now. But they had to play

:35:45. > :35:48.for an hour with only ten men, after captain Fernandinho was sent

:35:49. > :35:50.off for a reckless challenge. Gael Clichy eventually gave them

:35:51. > :35:53.the lead in the second half. Sergio Aguero added a second

:35:54. > :35:55.just four minutes later. Pep Guardiola didn't seem

:35:56. > :35:58.entirely happy in his The sending off -

:35:59. > :36:02.what was it your view of the red You're the manager, I'm sure

:36:03. > :36:07.the fans would like to know. You don't seem that

:36:08. > :36:16.happy that you've won? More than you would believe, more

:36:17. > :36:21.than you would believe. Liverpool stay second

:36:22. > :36:31.in the Premier League, despite twice throwing away a lead

:36:32. > :36:34.at relegation-threatened Sunderland. Sadio Mane made it 2-1

:36:35. > :36:36.for Liverpool, but Jermaine Defoe's second penalty of the

:36:37. > :36:39.match saw it end 2-2. Liverpool are now five points

:36:40. > :36:44.behind leaders Chelsea. Two points dropped for Liverpool.

:36:45. > :36:48.Too early to say that? I am not interested in what people say. Some

:36:49. > :36:52.people, I am not interested. Could it be a precious point come the end

:36:53. > :36:58.of the season, away from home? As I said, if all the other teams to drop

:36:59. > :37:01.points and it is a big problem for us, it could be a loss.

:37:02. > :37:04.Manchester United moved to within a point of the top four

:37:05. > :37:07.after victory at West Ham, who had to play with ten men

:37:08. > :37:10.for most of the game after Sofiane Feghouli was sent off.

:37:11. > :37:12.The goals came from Juan Mata and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

:37:13. > :37:14.Paul Clement will become Swansea City's third manager

:37:15. > :37:22.The former Chelsea and Real Madrid assistant manager was in charge

:37:23. > :37:25.of Derby County for eight months before being sacked last year,

:37:26. > :37:27.and is currently assistant to Carlo Ancelotti at Bayern Munich.

:37:28. > :37:29.Leicester Tigers have sacked their director of rugby,

:37:30. > :37:32.Richard Cockerill, after nearly eight years in charge.

:37:33. > :37:35.The club has never failed to reach the Premiership semi-finals under

:37:36. > :37:37.Cockerill, but he leaves them fifth in the League.

:37:38. > :37:40.Cockerill spent all but two of the last 25 years

:37:41. > :37:47.Head coach Aaron Mauger will take charge on an interim basis.

:37:48. > :37:50.Roger Federer made a winning return to tennis by helping Switzerland

:37:51. > :37:53.to victory over Great Britain at the Hopman Cup, in Perth.

:37:54. > :37:56.Federer beat Dan Evans to set his team up for a clean sweep.

:37:57. > :37:58.They won both singles matches and the mixed doubles.

:37:59. > :38:05.Federer hadn't played competitively since Wimbledon in the summer.

:38:06. > :38:07.Michael van Gerwen has won his second World Darts

:38:08. > :38:10.He beat reigning PDC Champion Gary Anderson 7-3

:38:11. > :38:15.It wasn't all plain sailing for the Dutchman, though,

:38:16. > :38:18.as just as he was throwing for the match at 6-2 up,

:38:19. > :38:21.Security men quickly dealt with the prankster,

:38:22. > :38:23.but it put van Gerwen off, delaying his coronation

:38:24. > :38:38.It was worth the extra wait, though, as he claimed victory in style,

:38:39. > :38:40.to take the ?350,000 prize, and end Anderson's hopes

:38:41. > :38:49.And finally, less than a week after announcing his retirement,

:38:50. > :39:15.He is swapping two wheels for a pair of skis, by joining Channel 4's

:39:16. > :39:23.Yes, you did hear giggles when I read that last part, because he is

:39:24. > :39:27.an adrenaline junkie. Adrenaline, you are certainly going to get that

:39:28. > :39:34.on that show. He was never going to put his feet up, I suppose. Good

:39:35. > :39:36.luck to them all. Is this just for me? Where do I start?

:39:37. > :39:39.We have heard warnings before that skipping breakfast is one

:39:40. > :39:42.of the most unhealthy things a child can do.

:39:43. > :39:45.This morning, new research suggests eating the wrong breakfast could be

:39:46. > :39:49.Public Health England says the high sugar content in some of our most

:39:50. > :39:52.popular cereals, spreads and juices means the average child in England

:39:53. > :39:54.has already consumed half the healthy daily limit before

:39:55. > :40:01.So how can we keep track of what children are eating

:40:02. > :40:03.for breakfast, and what are the healthy options?

:40:04. > :40:19.Good morning to you. We have talked about this on Breakfast before, but

:40:20. > :40:23.it is quite a shock when you start doing the numbers. It is a very big

:40:24. > :40:28.problem. I think it is important to get an idea of the scale of the

:40:29. > :40:31.problem. One in five children in this country, when they start

:40:32. > :40:35.primary school, are either overweight or obese. By the time

:40:36. > :40:39.they reach secondary school that figure has gone up to one in three

:40:40. > :40:43.children so a third of our kids by the time they start secondary school

:40:44. > :40:46.are overweight or obese. That is a big, big problem. What strikes me

:40:47. > :40:51.most about the statistics as they come from Public Health England, and

:40:52. > :40:56.not only... Well, not only is the average child in England having half

:40:57. > :41:00.the daily allowance at first, 80% of those parents think they are giving

:41:01. > :41:05.their child a healthy Breakfast. And stuff like this, to give you an idea

:41:06. > :41:09.of how it works. This app tells you how much sugar is in each of these

:41:10. > :41:13.things, you can use it to scan things in a supermarket. Let's take

:41:14. > :41:17.a couple of things and scan them and find out how much sugar is in each

:41:18. > :41:21.of these. This is normal chocolate spread, and the results on here, it

:41:22. > :41:26.tells you in a whole pack, in 100 g, and in one serving. 2.1 sugar cubes

:41:27. > :41:31.in one serving. So a piece of toast with that on is two sugar cubes and

:41:32. > :41:44.let's say you have that with a normal Jews drink in the morning, we

:41:45. > :41:49.will just scan that for you -- juice drink. I think it is the hidden

:41:50. > :41:58.sugar. So together you have over five, nearly six. Absolutely, so if

:41:59. > :42:03.you are a child aged four to six, the recommended daily allowance for

:42:04. > :42:05.added sugar is five sugar cubes. You are going over that with this

:42:06. > :42:10.Breakfast. This seems like a reasonable Breakfast for people, so

:42:11. > :42:16.I think it is trying to educate people about trying to make better

:42:17. > :42:21.choices. So a better choice might be, for example, what? I have two

:42:22. > :42:25.kids at home, so I am very used to this dilemma and we do things like

:42:26. > :42:31.eggs and avocado in the morning. Six minutes it can take. It doesn't have

:42:32. > :42:36.to be a big effort, I have to cook a fresh Breakfast for my children. You

:42:37. > :42:41.can have quick healthy food. Eggs and avocado are a common one. We

:42:42. > :42:45.make a lot of dinner the night before, and often heat up leftovers

:42:46. > :42:48.in the morning. So that is quite a change, isn't it? You assume

:42:49. > :42:53.Breakfast is a particular type of meal. Absolutely, and it will

:42:54. > :42:57.require a cultural change, if we are used to having cereals which are

:42:58. > :43:05.full of sugar, juices which are full of sugar, it is going to take quite

:43:06. > :43:08.a lot to change our behaviour. When people go to school, I remember the

:43:09. > :43:12.week before Christmas my six-year-old was at school and on

:43:13. > :43:17.Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday it was a sugar fat. It was all in the name

:43:18. > :43:21.of Christmas. And I understand it is a particular time of year, but I

:43:22. > :43:25.strongly think that the problem is so bad that I don't think we should

:43:26. > :43:32.be encouraging children at school to be having sugar -- sugar fat. Would

:43:33. > :43:37.sugar tax which is due to come in next year, is that something you

:43:38. > :43:40.would encourage? I encourage it because I think everything helps. I

:43:41. > :43:43.don't think one thing in isolation is going to turn around this

:43:44. > :43:47.epidemic we have. I think empowering people with an application that they

:43:48. > :43:51.can make better choices is going to help but I think schools and

:43:52. > :43:56.teachers need to be involved, doctors, the government, I think the

:43:57. > :44:00.only way we are going to get on top of this is everyone together. We

:44:01. > :44:04.need to get back to sugar being the occasional treat rather than the

:44:05. > :44:09.everyday norm. It is really good to talk to you, as always. What are you

:44:10. > :44:13.having for Breakfast this morning? When I come back I think we are

:44:14. > :44:19.having roast chicken left over from last night, with some veg. That is

:44:20. > :44:28.my ideal Breakfast, not that I have it often. I have cumin yoghurt and

:44:29. > :44:43.porridge. Carol is at London Zoo. Who is that?

:44:44. > :44:48.It is a mangrove snake. You are more likely to find him in a forest than

:44:49. > :44:53.a mangrove, but we have one of the snakes out. It is the annual stock

:44:54. > :44:59.take at London Zoo. I got a bit close! This is a rhino rat snake

:45:00. > :45:05.from China and Vietnam. One of the cool things about the skies is that

:45:06. > :45:13.big nose it has. Nobody knows why it has those. -- this guy. One

:45:14. > :45:19.suggestion is it uses it to funnel rainwater into mouth. It is a

:45:20. > :45:24.drinking mechanism. He is very nice, but he is close enough. Thank you!

:45:25. > :45:29.It is cold outside, not in the reptile house. This morning, for

:45:30. > :45:33.many, it would be bright and breezy. There is rain and stronger wind in

:45:34. > :45:39.the forecast. If you are stepping out first being in England, it is a

:45:40. > :45:43.cold start with sunshine. Watch out for ice on untreated surfaces. Roads

:45:44. > :45:48.and pavements alike. At nine o'clock, the temperature in London

:45:49. > :45:53.will be one degree. Cloud and sunshine. As we move up the east

:45:54. > :45:57.coast of England, generally, a fair bit of sunshine fez thing. In

:45:58. > :46:02.Scotland, although in some parts of the east there is sunshine,

:46:03. > :46:06.foremost, cloudy with rain across Shetland and the far north of

:46:07. > :46:10.mainland Scotland. It will be a windy day. For Western Scotland and

:46:11. > :46:15.Northern Ireland, patchy light rain and showers. For north-west England,

:46:16. > :46:20.showers and cloud as it is across Wales. South Wales and south-west

:46:21. > :46:27.England, back into blue skies. A cold and frosty start. Once again,

:46:28. > :46:32.the risk of ice. Temperatures in Oxfordshire are -6.4. Through the

:46:33. > :46:37.course of the day, more cloud around then yesterday. More persistent rain

:46:38. > :46:41.across the far north of Scotland. Windy with gusts of 60 mph across

:46:42. > :46:46.Shetland, but in the north, it will be breezy. The cloud filtering

:46:47. > :46:51.further south and east through the day. No heatwave in prospect. Into

:46:52. > :46:54.the evening and overnight, the weather front bringing the rain

:46:55. > :46:59.across northern Scotland sinks southwards. Ahead of it, some breaks

:47:00. > :47:04.in the clouds and an early frost for a bit of cloud building as the front

:47:05. > :47:09.comes south taking patchy rain with it, and behind it, clearer skies. A

:47:10. > :47:14.cold night in prospect. Still windy and still with a touch of frost.

:47:15. > :47:18.Tomorrow morning, we start with our weather front continuing to sink

:47:19. > :47:22.south and taking cloud and patchy rain with it. We will also see

:47:23. > :47:27.strong wind down the east coast. That could blow in showers across

:47:28. > :47:32.Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, into East Anglia. Behind that, fewer showers

:47:33. > :47:38.and a fair bit of sunshine. As we move into Thursday, we have a

:47:39. > :47:41.weather front coming in from the west. That will introduce some rain

:47:42. > :47:46.later to western areas. The further is to travel, the drier you will be

:47:47. > :47:50.more likely to be. A bit of cloud at times with some sunshine. Still

:47:51. > :47:55.feeling cold. As you would expect at the beginning of January. I am

:47:56. > :48:01.loving your little show around the mountain so. Thank you. We will see

:48:02. > :48:03.you later. -- London Zoo. Plenty more animals coming later in the

:48:04. > :48:04.programme. Thousands of new homes,

:48:05. > :48:06.which will only be available to first-time buyers,

:48:07. > :48:09.are to be built on brownfield These are the first homes that will

:48:10. > :48:25.benefit. The government has announced

:48:26. > :48:27.the first areas to benefit from the ?1.2 billion

:48:28. > :48:30.Starter Homes Land Fund. These are areas that have been built

:48:31. > :48:35.on before but are now disused or derelict - as opposed

:48:36. > :48:37.to greenfield sites, which are areas of land that have

:48:38. > :48:40.never been built on before. The government has named 30 local

:48:41. > :48:42.authorities across England which will receive

:48:43. > :48:46.the first batch of funding. The new houses will only be

:48:47. > :48:49.available to first-time buyers aged between 23 and 40 years

:48:50. > :49:06.old at a discount of at least 20% It is designed to help first-time

:49:07. > :49:10.buyers get on the property ladder. It is unlikely I will buy a house

:49:11. > :49:14.unless I can get some muggy by winning the lotto. Like over 7

:49:15. > :49:19.million people in this country, I am self employed, and there are special

:49:20. > :49:24.criteria we have to meet -- money. It is harder for people self

:49:25. > :49:27.employed to get houses than other people. That along with getting a

:49:28. > :49:33.deposit for houses that are getting ever more expensive. It is really

:49:34. > :49:38.difficult. For me, I can't see a way forward where I will ever own my own

:49:39. > :49:39.home. That is the view of one would-be buyer.

:49:40. > :49:41.David Hollingworth is from the mortgage broker

:49:42. > :49:51.So this is not new money. It will be used to clean up brown field sites.

:49:52. > :49:57.Today we got the detail about where the money will be spent. As you say,

:49:58. > :50:01.the starter homes concept has been around for some time. We are

:50:02. > :50:05.starting to see how that money will fifth go. The aim is to give a

:50:06. > :50:11.discount to first-time homebuyers struggle with affordability and to

:50:12. > :50:14.get a deposit in the face of high house prices. They are trying to

:50:15. > :50:18.remove some of the hurdles for developers to bring new homes to

:50:19. > :50:22.market. Look to bring new sites that previously would not have been

:50:23. > :50:29.developed, remove the costs of hurdles, and helped to produce and

:50:30. > :50:33.supply more new homes. And it is that difference between Brownfield

:50:34. > :50:38.sites and places being used on already, a factory or warehouse,

:50:39. > :50:41.rather than greenfield sites in the countryside. Of course everyone is

:50:42. > :50:44.worried about the use of green fields. They don't want to start

:50:45. > :50:48.developing the countryside. But we have a lot of land available on

:50:49. > :50:51.Brownfield that could potentially be utilised for this kind of housing.

:50:52. > :50:54.Hoping to bring more affordable homes to market.

:50:55. > :51:03.You have to be between ages of 23 and 40 and a first-time homebuyer to

:51:04. > :51:09.be eligible. Can you move on from there? So I think the problem for

:51:10. > :51:13.first-time homebuyers is getting a deposit together. Prices are higher

:51:14. > :51:18.in you need a big deposit. Affordability is difficult. This is

:51:19. > :51:21.trying to focus on that problem by providing a discount. Once people

:51:22. > :51:25.can get on the ladder, hopefully they will then have a footing they

:51:26. > :51:29.can help them move further down the line. But that discount stopped them

:51:30. > :51:33.from recouping that immediately and we expect that will be a five-year

:51:34. > :51:39.period before they are able to move on. So the pot of money worth ?1.2

:51:40. > :51:43.billion, some are already saying this does not even scratch the

:51:44. > :51:48.surface. It is nowhere near enough to solve the problem we have as far

:51:49. > :51:53.as a housing crisis for first-time buyers. It is a start but not the

:51:54. > :52:00.whole deal? It is part of an overall target. 200,000 homes by 2020. It is

:52:01. > :52:03.not an overnight solution, clearly, but it is focusing on local

:52:04. > :52:08.authorities they can bring these properties to market quite quickly.

:52:09. > :52:12.That has been one of the key areas. As you say, clearly focused on

:52:13. > :52:17.first-time buyers and helping to address that supply issue as well.

:52:18. > :52:22.These are important issues, so it is a start on that road. David, nice to

:52:23. > :52:25.see you. Thank you very much. More from me after seven o'clock.

:52:26. > :52:27.If you're missing Strictly Come Dancing and The X Factor,

:52:28. > :52:30.two more singing contests are taking over Saturday night TV again

:52:31. > :52:34.On BBC One there's the launch of Gary Barlow's talent show

:52:35. > :52:37.Let It Shine, where he searches for the cast

:52:38. > :52:42.An hour later The Voice begins its ITV debut -

:52:49. > :53:04.The start of January, a BBC One Saturday night singing contest, but

:53:05. > :53:08.not The Voice. After five years, that has moved to ITV, replaced by

:53:15. > :53:18.# Look around there are a whole lot of pretty ladies #.

:53:19. > :53:23.The face behind it was previously an X factor judge for three seasons.

:53:24. > :53:27.Gary Barlow, no stranger to the TV talent singing show. What is

:53:28. > :53:31.different about this one? It is obviously very exciting because it

:53:32. > :53:35.is my own show. These guys we are casting at the moment, the endgame

:53:36. > :53:40.of this whole programme is that they will have a part in a new musical

:53:41. > :53:43.featuring all of the music of their slack.

:53:44. > :53:46.# Family asked me why you let me come #.

:53:47. > :53:50.Saturday night singing contests have had a hard time. December's The X

:53:51. > :53:55.Factor final was the least watched in the show's history and by Stu's

:53:56. > :53:59.The Voice soar view is vanishing. What makes you think there is room

:54:00. > :54:05.or the appetite for another one of these shows? -- last year's there is

:54:06. > :54:09.gut instinct and a lot of research saying people at the beginning of a

:54:10. > :54:12.dark winter want some real treat on TV because Christmas is finished and

:54:13. > :54:17.everything is finished. You don't want TV to suddenly desert you. And

:54:18. > :54:22.one of the show's judges has a lot of Saturday night TV experience.

:54:23. > :54:26.Danni Minogue was on The X Factor for four years. What is unusual is

:54:27. > :54:31.you will be up against The Voice, which used to be on BBC One. You are

:54:32. > :54:36.going to love that! There will be a media frenzy. How will you compete?

:54:37. > :54:41.I think they are different shows. The Voice is really settled into

:54:42. > :54:48.what it is doing and has such a fan base. This one is different. I mean,

:54:49. > :54:54.we are giving people the skills they can take on to use forever, but then

:54:55. > :55:00.also offering a 12 month did. That is a really big job for someone. And

:55:01. > :55:04.every contestant I spoke to say this was the first time they had

:55:05. > :55:09.auditioned for a TV talent show, and it was the format which appealed. To

:55:10. > :55:13.be put on a platform we were given the opportunity to do your stars and

:55:14. > :55:19.tricks but actually sing as well, I can't ask for anything else --

:55:20. > :55:22.styles. I get all one package. I can sing, play instruments, dance and

:55:23. > :55:29.act as well. It was everything in one. There is not a show that

:55:30. > :55:34.provides bad. -- those options. As the Gary Barlow, he is not overawed

:55:35. > :55:40.about letter China starting on the very same night The Voice makes it

:55:41. > :55:44.ITV debut -- Let It Shine. It is the same with music. I don't look right

:55:45. > :55:49.or left, I just concentrate on what we are doing and make it the best

:59:55. > :59:57.in an operation near the M62 West Yorkshire Police say

:59:58. > :00:00.the operation was pre-planned and that at least one

:00:01. > :00:02.person was arrested, It is the fifth fatal police

:00:03. > :00:10.shooting in England and Wales Good morning, it is

:00:11. > :00:24.Tuesday 3 January. Also this morning: The average child

:00:25. > :00:28.is eating three cubes worth of sugar for breakfast, according

:01:28. > :01:36.Good morning. You are looking at a blue tree monitor lizard at the

:01:37. > :01:41.moment, and he was unknown to science until 2001. He is nice and

:01:42. > :01:45.cosy inside this tank there. Outside it is a cold start to the day more

:01:46. > :01:49.or less across the board. Temperatures falling two minus seven

:01:50. > :01:53.Celsius. There is ice and frost, a fair bit of sunshine but more cloud

:01:54. > :01:56.than yesterday and wet and especially windy across the far

:01:57. > :01:59.north of Scotland. More details and more reptiles in 15 minutes.

:02:00. > :02:03.First, our main story: A man has been shot dead by police

:02:04. > :02:05.in an operation near the M62 motorway in Huddersfield yesterday

:02:06. > :02:09.West Yorkshire say the operation was pre-planned and that more

:02:10. > :02:12.than one person has been arrested, but gave few other details.

:02:13. > :02:14.The Independent Police Complaints Commission has sent investigators

:02:15. > :02:22.It is the fifth fatal police shooting in England and Wales

:02:23. > :02:25.Our home affairs correspondent Danny Shaw reports.

:02:26. > :02:39.The shooting happened shortly after 6:00pm yesterday evening

:02:40. > :02:43.on a slip road off the M62 at Ainley Top, near Huddersfield.

:02:44. > :02:45.West Yorkshire Police say the incident took place

:02:46. > :02:47.during a preplanned policing operation, suggesting officers had

:02:48. > :02:49.acted on intelligence rather than responding

:02:50. > :02:52.The force said a police firearm was discharged,

:02:53. > :02:55.No-one else is believed to have been injured.

:02:56. > :02:57.The Independent Police Complaints Commission was informed,

:02:58. > :03:00.and has sent its own investigators to the scene, which has

:03:01. > :03:07.Photographs from the area appeared to indicate that a number

:03:08. > :03:10.of unmarked police vehicles may have stopped a car on the slip road

:03:11. > :03:13.before the shooting, though that hasn't been confirmed.

:03:14. > :03:15.Although fatal police shootings are rare, it is the fifth such

:03:16. > :03:18.incident in England and Wales in the last nine months,

:03:19. > :03:20.and the first involving West Yorkshire Police

:03:21. > :03:33.We will be speaking to our correspondent a little later in the

:03:34. > :03:35.programme. Children in England are eating

:03:36. > :03:37.half their recommended daily sugar intake before they even get

:03:38. > :03:40.to school, that is the warning Public Health England say sugary

:03:41. > :03:44.cereals, juices and spreads are to blame and, at a time

:03:45. > :03:46.of spiralling obesity levels, have launched a campaign to help

:03:47. > :03:49.us better understand If breakfast is the most

:03:50. > :03:55.important meal of the day... Millions of children consume over

:03:56. > :04:03.half their daily sugar allowance before they even get to school,

:04:04. > :04:07.but a new campaign is aiming to curb Many parents will think

:04:08. > :04:10.their breakfast cereals are healthy, that they're buying

:04:11. > :04:13.for their children, and they're actually rather surprised

:04:14. > :04:15.when they find out how much sugar There are better, lower-sugar,

:04:16. > :04:26.alternative breakfast cereals We'd be encouraging parents

:04:27. > :04:36.to have a look at those. Public Health England has launched

:04:37. > :04:39.an app to scan a barcode, and it will tell you how much sugar,

:04:40. > :04:44.salt and fat is in that food. And the results - well,

:04:45. > :04:46.they may be surprising. And that is the idea, to help

:04:47. > :04:49.parents make healthier choices. The average child in England has

:04:50. > :04:52.the equivalent of three cubes of sugar every morning

:04:53. > :04:54.for breakfast. The recommended daily maximum amount

:04:55. > :04:57.for children aged four to six years old is five cubes, and for seven

:04:58. > :05:00.to ten-year-olds, six cubes. By the end of the day,

:05:01. > :05:04.the average child consumes three times more than their daily

:05:05. > :05:07.recommended amount, up to 18 With one in five children now

:05:08. > :05:13.starting primary school overweight or obese, perhaps now,

:05:14. > :05:15.more than ever, breakfast really is the most important

:05:16. > :05:22.meal of the day. Attempts to secure a peace deal

:05:23. > :05:25.in Syria have been suspended, after rebel groups accused

:05:26. > :05:27.government forces of Russia and Turkey, who brokered

:05:28. > :05:35.the current ceasefire, are trying to convene

:05:36. > :05:37.negotiations later this month. Meanwhile, Kurdish activists have

:05:38. > :05:40.told the BBC that a British man has been killed in Syria, fighting

:05:41. > :05:43.against the Islamic State group. Ryan Lock, who was 20

:05:44. > :05:46.and from West Sussex, died just before Christmas,

:05:47. > :05:49.during the battle to try to retake New pictures have emerged

:05:50. > :05:59.of the suspect involved in the mass shooting at a nightclub

:06:00. > :06:01.in Istanbul at New Year. Police say they have

:06:02. > :06:03.made 12 arrests so far. Yesterday, Turkish media reported

:06:04. > :06:06.that special forces had raided a house in Turkey after a tip-off,

:06:07. > :06:09.but the suspect was not found. So-called Islamic State have said

:06:10. > :06:12.it was behind the attack, which left 39 people dead and over

:06:13. > :06:19.60 people in hospital. British workers are spending up

:06:20. > :06:23.to a seventh of their income on rail fares, according to a study

:06:24. > :06:25.by the campaign group It says people in the UK spend six

:06:26. > :06:30.times as much on tickets compared The study also found fares have

:06:31. > :06:35.increased twice as much as wages Our reporter Leanne Brown

:06:36. > :06:50.is at King's Cross Station Yesterday it was bank holiday, I

:06:51. > :06:55.imagine it is a little bit busier today. Yes, it is. It is the start

:06:56. > :07:01.to a new year that commuters simply did not want, as you say. Rail

:07:02. > :07:14.prices went up yesterday, and public transport campaigners called it a

:07:15. > :07:17.kick in the teeth. Now, the union backed Action For Rail campaign says

:07:18. > :07:21.some customers are spending 14% of their wages on their monthly

:07:22. > :07:26.commute. To give you an example, if you are travelling from Luton into

:07:27. > :07:30.London, that could cost you ?387 per month. Compared with the rest of

:07:31. > :07:34.Europe, in places like Paris and Rome you will pay something like ?61

:07:35. > :07:39.for a similar journey. Now, campaigners say that it is a

:07:40. > :07:43.rip-off, and they are going to be staging protests at railway stations

:07:44. > :07:46.across the country today. Here in King's Cross and Manchester, being

:07:47. > :07:50.the main ones. The government in response has said that they are

:07:51. > :07:55.delivering the biggest rail improvements for a century,

:07:56. > :08:00.nonetheless, just after the festive season, money is going to be tight

:08:01. > :08:04.for many people. And we will be speaking to a representative of the

:08:37. > :08:40.possible, but the Housing Minister, Gavin Barwell, says it is all part

:08:41. > :08:53.I think there's a lot of different things we need to do to help people

:09:13. > :09:16.And the fundamental solution is to build more homes,

:09:34. > :09:35.The society, which has been developing ideas for Labour

:09:45. > :09:46.Eleanor, how much notice will the Labour Party be

:09:47. > :09:53.Well, I think it is certainly not the news that Labour MPs will want

:09:54. > :09:56.to start 2017 with. Having said that, I don't think many politicians

:09:57. > :09:59.here in Westminster will be surprised by the report's findings.

:10:00. > :10:03.Yes, it is a pretty melancholy message that Labour is too weak to

:10:04. > :10:06.win yet too strong to die, the Fabian Society report points out

:10:07. > :10:09.that the party would need to win 300 million more votes than the

:10:10. > :10:13.Conservatives to secure a majority at a general election. That is

:10:14. > :10:19.something this report concludes is currently unprintable. It also

:10:30. > :10:35.other side hunting Labour's remained voters. Labour's own message on

:10:45. > :10:45.genuine alternative to a failed political establishment.

:10:46. > :10:48.Vinyl sales are at the highest they've ever been in 25 years,

:10:49. > :10:50.with more than 3.2 million records sold last year.

:10:51. > :10:53.It marks the ninth consecutive year that sales have grown.

:10:54. > :10:56.It is believed sales have been increased because of events such

:10:57. > :10:58.as Record Store Day, and an increasing audience

:10:59. > :11:16.We do play the records. Last Christmas you are saying you got a

:11:17. > :11:21.record player. Have you seen the list of the top 50 selling LPs? Only

:11:22. > :11:27.two of the top ten new albums, David Bowie being one. Every thing else is

:11:28. > :11:35.a bit of nostalgia. Resume of the rereleases of albums as well. People

:11:36. > :11:39.going out and buying them again. Thank you for contacting us, and on

:11:40. > :11:42.the sugar side of things as well. While people are preparing for

:11:43. > :11:45.Breakfast, we will give you more information about that. It is

:11:46. > :11:50.something we talk about a lot on Breakfast but those hidden sugars in

:11:51. > :11:51.things like juices and cereals and eggs, things like that.

:11:55. > :11:58.A new study by campaign group Action For Rail says British workers

:12:03. > :12:04.The figure is about six times as much as employees

:12:05. > :12:11.Joining us now from King's Cross Station in London is the TUC's head

:12:12. > :12:21.Thank you for your time this morning, happy New Year to you as

:12:22. > :12:26.well. The government are saying that wages... Sorry, bit of a delay on

:12:27. > :12:29.the line, but we shall persevere. The government is saying that wages

:12:30. > :12:33.are increasing more than regulated train fares. What is your response

:12:34. > :12:39.to that this morning? Well, some wages are going up but for most

:12:40. > :12:42.working people they are not. We are seeing real fear is yet again

:12:43. > :12:45.increasing far faster in the UK than anywhere else in Europe and

:12:46. > :12:50.passengers are having to pay more and more just to get to work. In the

:12:51. > :12:55.UK passengers are paying 14% of their salaries just to commute. That

:12:56. > :12:59.is an awful lot for people to commit out of their salaries, and we're not

:13:00. > :13:03.seeing Parsley improved rail services as a result of that

:13:04. > :13:08.investment. It another hit on commuters, as people have said, that

:13:09. > :13:12.is a key in the teeth and a hell of a way to start the New Year. Chris

:13:13. > :13:14.Grayling has talked about those increased fees and says the

:13:15. > :13:18.government is embarking on the biggest modernisation in rail in

:13:19. > :13:24.many years. Surely money is required to make it a better service. The

:13:25. > :13:28.investment in the rail infrastructure is absolutely

:13:29. > :13:32.necessary and very, very welcome. It is right that passengers pay a share

:13:33. > :13:36.of that, and it is right that the taxpayer pays a share of that, and

:13:37. > :13:39.both are. But there is another partner in the rail industry, and

:13:40. > :13:42.that is the privatised rail companies and they are paying less.

:13:43. > :13:46.We think the investment is welcome but everyone should pay their part,

:13:47. > :13:49.including the private sector operators, instead of the passengers

:13:50. > :13:53.paying more and more and bigger and bigger share for what is essentially

:13:54. > :13:58.not on improving service. What would you like to see done to address

:13:59. > :14:01.those problems? More money coming in from private companies? Well, we

:14:02. > :14:07.think that with private sector involvement it is a real costly

:14:08. > :14:11.feature of power in the structure, taking money out of the system

:14:12. > :14:14.rather than putting money in. So if they are insisting on having private

:14:15. > :14:18.sector companies operating it, which we think is a bad idea to start

:14:19. > :14:21.with, and followed a lot of problems, we think they should be

:14:22. > :14:27.putting their money into the system as well, and not placed under in

:14:28. > :14:30.increasing burden from passengers. There are a lot of people watching

:14:31. > :14:35.this and thinking they don't use the train, they drive to work. You

:14:36. > :14:38.mentioned in your argument about taxpayers subsidising train fares.

:14:39. > :14:43.What do you say to those watching and saying it is not something I

:14:44. > :14:47.wish my taxes to go towards? Well, we think that rail services are an

:14:48. > :14:52.important public service, the same as education, hospitals, the Police

:14:53. > :14:58.Service, Justice service. It is an important part of our economy and of

:14:59. > :15:03.making Britain worked well. So we think that is a reason to keep it in

:15:04. > :15:06.the public sector, and a reason why everybody including taxpayers should

:15:07. > :15:10.contribute towards an efficient, well staffed and reliable rail

:15:11. > :15:13.service. Good to talk to you, thank you very much for your time.

:15:14. > :15:18.Back to our top story now - one man has been shot dead by police

:15:19. > :15:20.in a pre-planned operation near the M62 motorway in Huddersfield.

:15:21. > :15:26.Our reporter Phil Bodmer is at the scene for us now.

:15:27. > :15:35.Good morning. What more can you tell us about what is going on? In the

:15:36. > :15:40.last few hours, the police have now erected some steel screens across

:15:41. > :15:45.the motorway slip road. This is the exit to Junction 24 of the and 62.

:15:46. > :15:49.They are likely to remain closed until at least ten o'clock this

:15:50. > :15:54.morning as investigations into what happened last night continued -- and

:15:55. > :15:59.62. Police say a man died after a police firearm was discharged during

:16:00. > :16:04.what they call a preplanned operation. The roads here and the

:16:05. > :16:07.motorway was closed overnight and today as those investigations

:16:08. > :16:11.continue, they will try to piece together exactly what happened. We

:16:12. > :16:17.also understand a number of people have now been arrested in connection

:16:18. > :16:23.with this incident. How often does this occur? This incident involved

:16:24. > :16:28.two cars. You can't see them now because they are obscured by the

:16:29. > :16:32.screen. A silver Mercedes and also a jaguar car. They were involved in

:16:33. > :16:36.what seems to be some kind of stopped by the police. These are

:16:37. > :16:39.fairly rare incidents. A shooting certainly. This is only the fifth

:16:40. > :16:43.time in the last nine months somebody has been shot fatally in

:16:44. > :16:49.England and Wales by the police. This is an automatic referral to the

:16:50. > :16:52.Independent police complaints commission, and they are here with

:16:53. > :16:56.offices in West Yorkshire police to investigate the circumstances of

:16:57. > :16:58.what happened. Thank you. We will keep you up-to-date on BBC Breakfast

:16:59. > :17:06.as well. Let's get the latest weather from

:17:07. > :17:09.Carol. She was promising some more reptiles.

:17:10. > :17:19.Have you got a Komodo dragon? This is a Philippine water monitor

:17:20. > :17:23.lizard. She's a young lady, lovely. She is big and quite sleepy at the

:17:24. > :17:28.moment. There are two ladies in this cage. They are quite large. We have

:17:29. > :17:37.a smaller one. We have Martin with us. Tell us about this wee chap?

:17:38. > :17:41.This is a Chinese crocodile. There are two subspecies, one from China

:17:42. > :17:46.and one from Vietnam. What are like about the skies is they are so busy,

:17:47. > :17:53.or at least take a long time to wake up. -- these guys. They're Chinese

:17:54. > :18:01.name translate to great sleepiness. He does not look uncomfortable. No,

:18:02. > :18:06.they have a fight or flight response and typically will struggle if they

:18:07. > :18:10.are not comfortable, but this guy is perfectly comfortable. No worries.

:18:11. > :18:15.Thank you. We'll come back to you later. In the reptile house at

:18:16. > :18:19.London Zoo, an annual stock take is taking place today. It is nice and

:18:20. > :18:24.warm. But outside it is cold and also bright and breezy for many.

:18:25. > :18:28.More clout round today than yesterday. We also have rain in the

:18:29. > :18:32.north. As we come further south, we have clearer skies and blue skies

:18:33. > :18:39.from the word go and they cold start. -6.4 in Benson in

:18:40. > :18:43.Oxfordshire. -6.2 in Exeter itself. There is the risk of hours this

:18:44. > :18:51.morning on untreated surfaces. Roads and pavements alike. -- ice. We are

:18:52. > :18:56.back into the sunshine and the cold start with the frost. A bit of

:18:57. > :19:01.brightness across eastern Scotland, but generally, a fair bit of cloud.

:19:02. > :19:05.More persistent rain across the final and windy as well. Patchy rain

:19:06. > :19:09.across Western Scotland and showers in Northern Ireland. Showers across

:19:10. > :19:14.north-west England and north Wales. For southern parts of Wales and

:19:15. > :19:18.south-west England, it is cold and frosty. There is the risk of ice on

:19:19. > :19:22.untreated surfaces once again. Through the day, the rain will

:19:23. > :19:26.continue across the Northern Isles, the far north of mainland Scotland

:19:27. > :19:30.and sinking further south. Winds up to 60 mph across Shetland, but

:19:31. > :19:37.generally a breezy day in the northern half of the country. The

:19:38. > :19:40.far south of England will hang onto sunshine for the longest as clouds

:19:41. > :19:43.builds. From the temperatures, no heatwave in prospect. Overnight, the

:19:44. > :19:47.weather front bringing rain across Scotland continues to sink south.

:19:48. > :19:51.Ahead of it, a fair bit of cloud with some breaks and early frost. As

:19:52. > :19:58.it comes south, disguised behind it will clear. We will have again some

:19:59. > :20:02.frost but still windy. Windy across the north and east. Tomorrow, we

:20:03. > :20:06.will have a weather front across parts of England and Wales producing

:20:07. > :20:10.cloud. The odd spot of rain. Nothing too significant. It will continue to

:20:11. > :20:15.push southwards through the day. Behind it, blue skies and fewer

:20:16. > :20:19.showers. With a stiff north-easterly or north-westerly wind coming down

:20:20. > :20:25.the North Sea, it will bring in a few showers across Yorkshire,

:20:26. > :20:30.Lincolnshire and into east angler. It will fill colour. By Thursday,

:20:31. > :20:34.the weather front coming from the west will introduce rain -- feel

:20:35. > :20:38.colder. Across central areas, dry and brighter with sunshine.

:20:39. > :20:44.Temperatures roughly where they should be at this stage in January.

:20:45. > :20:49.Thank you very much. It certainly was chilly last night. See you

:20:50. > :20:51.later. I love the reptile 's this morning. I know, fantastic.

:20:52. > :20:55.It was one of the bloodiest battles during World War One,

:20:56. > :20:57.with 325,000 Allied troops and 260,000 German soldiers

:20:58. > :21:01.To honour those who died there, and to mark the 100th

:21:02. > :21:03.anniversary of Passchendaele, two events will be held

:21:04. > :21:07.Our correspondent Robert Hall is at the Menin Gate

:21:08. > :21:19.Good morning. Can you explain exactly what is happening? Looking

:21:20. > :21:27.for those who might be relatives of those who died at Passchendaele?

:21:28. > :21:30.Yes, that's right. This is a town where those commemorations will be

:21:31. > :21:34.focused. You will hear more about that in a minute. Passchendaele

:21:35. > :21:38.probably in the run events marking the first of the world for

:21:39. > :21:42.centuries, the most significant milestones. The pictures that came

:21:43. > :21:46.out of that period probably typified to a lot of people what the First

:21:47. > :21:51.World War was about. The soldiers fought in a sea of mud and water. I

:21:52. > :21:52.will tell you more about the event in a minute, but let's hear

:21:53. > :22:01.something from those who were there. My wound was light and I was

:22:02. > :22:06.hobbling back, then a shell burst slick upon the dartboards. So I fell

:22:07. > :22:12.into the bottomless mud and lost the right -- duck boards. There was not

:22:13. > :22:19.a sign of life of any site, not a bird, not even a rat or a blade of

:22:20. > :22:23.grass. The words of those who tried to some up the whole of

:22:24. > :22:28.Passchendaele. Three months when more than half a million men died --

:22:29. > :22:36.hell. Three months when the Allied army fought an enemy. There might

:22:37. > :22:41.and the cold, to gain a few miles of ground -- the mud. A few years ago,

:22:42. > :22:44.Ypres was under siege. The roads leading North climbed steadily to

:22:45. > :22:50.the German lines which overlooked the Allies on three sides. After the

:22:51. > :22:54.war, the British made this documentary about the battle. Tales

:22:55. > :23:01.of personal heroism to distract from the ghastly reality. The reality of

:23:02. > :23:07.uphill advances, a sacking quagmire, and the horrors of machine-guns and

:23:08. > :23:12.gas. -- sucking. This year's commemorations will be focused in

:23:13. > :23:17.Ypres, a city rebuilt from total destruction. They will be a series

:23:18. > :23:20.of events built and run remembrance and a need to help visitors

:23:21. > :23:24.understand what happened here. -- around. The events will take place

:23:25. > :23:30.over two days, starting with the traditional last post ceremony at

:23:31. > :23:37.Menin Gate followed by comparative events in the Market Square at the

:23:38. > :23:41.following day. On a freezing night under the Menin Gate, the bugles

:23:42. > :23:46.sound for the fallen once again. Passchendaele is burned into Ypres's

:23:47. > :23:52.turbulent history. Passchendaele is the loss of a lot of lives for us,

:23:53. > :23:58.and a lot of people that we commemorate day after day, and we

:23:59. > :24:03.want to continue the message that the last post has not forgotten.

:24:04. > :24:06.This summer's commemorations will be a partnership with a city whose

:24:07. > :24:17.people have never forgotten. There are 54,000 names carved onto

:24:18. > :24:21.the walls of the Menin Gate. This is the road that soldiers would have

:24:22. > :24:25.marched up to go to that battle, and the many other battles that took

:24:26. > :24:29.place around Ypres during the First World War. I suppose that is the

:24:30. > :24:32.poignant thing for a lot of families who might be thinking of coming.

:24:33. > :24:37.There are mysteries surrounding so many hundreds of people who still

:24:38. > :24:40.lie in the farmland here, his remains were never identified. Those

:24:41. > :24:48.other people the government are looking to try to bring to the

:24:49. > :24:50.commemorations. It will be a very big event, multinational,

:24:51. > :24:54.representatives from all over Europe. There will be events at

:24:55. > :24:57.Menin Gate, the Tyne cot seven Terry just below Passchendaele village,

:24:58. > :25:01.and then that cultural event in the square at the bottom pass those

:25:02. > :25:06.Christmas decorations by me. -- Cemetery. That will be hosted by the

:25:07. > :25:11.town itself. If you want to go, go to the website.

:25:12. > :25:16.I'm sure they will. Thank you very much. See you later.

:25:17. > :25:21.A familiar face is back on our screens this weekend

:25:22. > :25:24.with a new singing contest, but is there any appetite for it?

:25:25. > :25:29.We'll hear from the show's creator, Gary Barlow.

:25:30. > :25:40.We know there is an appetite for this! The revival of the final! You

:25:41. > :25:45.have. This out. -- vinyl. We have started playing records again. We

:25:46. > :25:51.have lost David Bowie, Prints this year. Thank you for your comments

:25:52. > :25:55.about vinyl that you love, and the rebirth of final -- Prince. Helen

:25:56. > :25:58.says she bought a husband a record player for Christmas. We had

:25:59. > :26:04.forgotten how good it says. It is tangible and you hold it. You can

:26:05. > :26:08.find the lyrics. We will have a quick look. Wait for this. Look at

:26:09. > :26:15.that! It is beautiful. You can hold it. We are streaming more than ever,

:26:16. > :26:17.but vinyl sales are bigger than they have been in the last years. And

:26:18. > :29:40.thank you for your comments. Hello, this is Breakfast,

:34:13. > :34:17.Almost instantaneous. Sometimes they shout at their team first, but

:34:18. > :34:19.straight in the heat of battle, here come the questions. Shall I explain

:34:20. > :34:21.what we are talking about? Manchester City are back up to third

:34:25. > :34:29.for an hour with only ten men, after captain Fernandinho was sent

:34:30. > :34:32.off for a reckless challenge. Gael Clichy eventually gave them

:34:33. > :34:35.the lead, but Guardiola was clearly Guardiola didn't seem entirely happy

:34:36. > :34:40.in his post-match interview, either, speaking to our

:34:41. > :34:42.reporter Damian Johnson. The sending off -

:34:43. > :34:45.what was it your view of the red You're the manager, I'm sure

:34:46. > :34:51.the fans would like to know. You don't seem that

:34:52. > :34:54.happy that you've won? More than you would believe,

:34:55. > :34:57.more than you would believe. Manchester still in the title race?

:34:58. > :35:22.They are still in the title race. Just a little bit awkward,

:35:23. > :35:24.and Jurgen Klopp wasn't too happy either, after Liverpool

:38:14. > :38:26.little bit, are you a fan of the final? Do you know what, yes. My

:38:27. > :38:31.first ever record was final. ABBA's Arrival. You are cooler than me. I

:38:32. > :38:33.don't know about that. They are known and loved

:38:34. > :38:36.for their scratchy and authentic sound, and the humble 12-inch's

:38:37. > :38:39.popularity is continuing to boom. More than 3.2 million LPs

:38:40. > :38:43.were sold last year, which is the highest

:38:44. > :38:45.annual total since 1991. We have been to a record store,

:38:46. > :39:03.to ask people there why I buy the music is like the physical

:39:04. > :39:09.format. It is a cliche, it is nice to go home, read the cover. My

:39:10. > :39:13.parents listen to vinyl and said you don't know what music is really like

:39:14. > :39:17.until you listen to it on vinyl. It is really impressive how it has all

:39:18. > :39:21.come back now. Has a nice feeling when you have spent half an hour in

:39:22. > :39:25.a record store, and you find a gem. It is really satisfying. You get

:39:26. > :39:31.more of a nice thing for your money. I think it sounds better, it is more

:39:32. > :39:35.crackly, a better feel to it and it looks a bit cooler as well. You

:39:36. > :39:39.could buy things years in the past and forget you have bought it, and

:39:40. > :39:43.you come back to it and it all comes together quite well. So you can see

:39:44. > :39:47.how your tastes have progressed. As soon as people come over to my

:39:48. > :39:51.place, the first thing they look at is all the records. It is like a

:39:52. > :39:55.conversational piece, really. It has become more than just that now. If

:39:56. > :39:59.it was a fad, it would have finished. It is the noise, it is the

:40:00. > :40:00.needle. So what does this rise mean

:40:01. > :40:02.to the music industry? Vanessa Higgins founded

:40:03. > :40:12.and runs her own record label. Vinyl is back. What do you think is

:40:13. > :40:18.behind it all? It is interesting, if you look at the figures we had 3.8

:40:19. > :40:22.million vinyl sales in 1991, and it declined until 2008. If ever there

:40:23. > :40:28.was a financial event to change people's behaviour was in 2008. Ever

:40:29. > :40:31.since then we have seen it increased an increase as more and more people

:40:32. > :40:36.want that physical product when they are experiencing the music. How does

:40:37. > :40:40.that work alongside, for example, streaming? This is the interesting

:40:41. > :40:43.thing because people tend to think that the younger generation are

:40:44. > :40:48.streaming, listening on digital and the more mature listeners use vinyl,

:40:49. > :40:52.but both sides of the equation are embracing both sides of the music so

:40:53. > :40:55.the more mature listener is embracing the streaming technology

:40:56. > :40:59.and discovering new music that way and the younger listeners I'm sure,

:41:00. > :41:02.anecdotally you will hear a lot of people got turntables for Christmas

:41:03. > :41:07.this year and they are all buying vinyl. In terms of what is being

:41:08. > :41:15.bought, when you look at the top ten it tends to be classic albums. Black

:41:16. > :41:26.Star from David Bowie and Radiohead were the only ones in the top ten.

:41:27. > :41:31.Some artists who died last year, Prince and the Beatles as well. Can

:41:32. > :41:36.carry on? With streaming you can get something instantly in a new can go

:41:37. > :41:39.local right away. Final by its nature takes time. As the markets

:41:40. > :41:43.start to grow again the first albums you will see repressed are those

:41:44. > :41:46.classics where there is appetite for people to buy them. What I am

:41:47. > :41:50.looking forward to from an independent label point of view is

:41:51. > :41:58.as more people are buying vinyl we can have more artists come through

:41:59. > :41:59.that way. The new artist really want to use vinyl.

:42:00. > :42:02.Prince came in at number nine on the list of top 50 LPs

:42:03. > :42:06.Let's have a listen to one of his most famous songs,

:42:07. > :42:31.# Purple rain, purple rain... Lots of people getting in touch. I forgot

:42:32. > :42:35.it was purple. It is beautiful. So many people saying different things.

:42:36. > :42:40.Pupils were told to have a record player in a drama scene and some did

:42:41. > :42:45.not know what it was. That is the reality amongst some people. I

:42:46. > :42:49.suppose so, but it is still only 5% of the album market, but it is

:42:50. > :42:56.growing at such a rate that we haven't seen before. It is an

:42:57. > :43:01.increase on last year. What about prices. They are more expensive if

:43:02. > :43:06.you want to buy the vinyl version. That is true, more goes through to

:43:07. > :43:14.the artist, so you are supporting them all. I hate to bring Brexit

:43:15. > :43:23.into everything, but it affects prices. Queen's greatest hits, you

:43:24. > :43:28.can get it much cheaper on CD. When you have coloured vinyl, nowadays

:43:29. > :43:34.you can get digital prints and things you can't do before. So many

:43:35. > :43:41.people getting in touch, one viewer has never been without final, and

:43:42. > :43:46.always a pleasure to listen to it. There is a discussion of people not

:43:47. > :43:51.liking today's music and why old Top Of The Pops is so popular. How does

:43:52. > :43:55.it fit with old talent shows? Do you think that is where talent shows

:43:56. > :44:00.will have to go to vinyl as well? That will be interesting to see. We

:44:01. > :44:05.have some artists... I was about to bring up 1975 talent show artist is,

:44:06. > :44:09.but new artists have broken through. We are seeing new artists coming

:44:10. > :44:15.through and talent show artist will see music good enough to be sold on

:44:16. > :44:21.vinyl. What about the cassette? If vinyl has had a comeback... I still

:44:22. > :44:31.have the old mix tapes, will we see the rebirth of the C90? Someone last

:44:32. > :44:35.you promised me that will happen, I don't think it will. I don't think

:44:36. > :44:41.we will see that. People are missing out, pressing play and record, come

:44:42. > :44:44.on! I don't think we are going to get that back, I'm afraid, except

:44:45. > :44:51.maybe in a drama show. We will see you on about an hour as well. Do get

:44:52. > :45:03.in touch as well. It is like being on the Starship Enterprise. I have

:45:04. > :45:10.Parallel Lines by Blondie. We will see you a little bit later.

:45:11. > :45:20.I hardly dare what this is? Is that a Komodo, Carol? No, this is a Fiji

:45:21. > :45:25.iguana. She is shedding her skin. You can tell she is a girl because

:45:26. > :45:30.she is mostly grain. I need to take you back to join Martin, one of the

:45:31. > :45:37.zookeepers. He has a snake. This is as close as I'm getting. Tell us

:45:38. > :45:41.about this snake. This is a Bones - from New Guinea. These are

:45:42. > :45:52.fascinating. I don't know if you can see from a distance that you are

:45:53. > :45:57.pointedly keeping -- bones -. -- python. They are small animals good

:45:58. > :46:02.at sensing heat. You can tell the difference between males and females

:46:03. > :46:08.by looking under this chin area. The females tend to have fewer black

:46:09. > :46:15.scales in that area than males, a bit like a chessboard. They are

:46:16. > :46:19.difficult to raise young from. We have about five upstairs we are

:46:20. > :46:24.trying to breed from right now. Thank you. I am keeping a safe

:46:25. > :46:29.distance. Better you than me. We are inside the reptile house, where it

:46:30. > :46:34.is nice and warm. Outside it is cold. The forecast today is bright

:46:35. > :46:37.and breezy. Having said that, there is more persistent rain across the

:46:38. > :46:42.far north of Scotland. It will be windy. South, blue skies with low

:46:43. > :46:48.temperatures. Some frost, and what this morning. It will be on the

:46:49. > :46:53.grass, cars and trees. And the risk of ice on untreated services. By

:46:54. > :46:56.nine o'clock, the temperature in London will be one degree. More

:46:57. > :47:01.cloud across East Anglia but still sign. That persists across eastern

:47:02. > :47:05.England. A bit of eastern Scotland Singh sunshine but generally more

:47:06. > :47:09.cloud. With heavy rain across the far north of sunshine and patchy

:47:10. > :47:13.rain across the west -- seeing sunshine. Brightness but showers

:47:14. > :47:18.dotted around from Northern Ireland and the same for west England and

:47:19. > :47:23.west Wales. More cloud with showers. South Wales and south-west England,

:47:24. > :47:28.cold, sunny and frost. The risk of ice on untreated services. It will

:47:29. > :47:33.be cloudy then yesterday today. -- surfaces. Cloud will build through

:47:34. > :47:37.the day. Printer showers across Cheshire and north Wales. The rain

:47:38. > :47:43.will be most persistent across the far north of Scotland. A Shetland,

:47:44. > :47:48.bust of 70 mph. The sunshine will last longest across southern

:47:49. > :47:52.England. -- gusts. Even so, no heat wave in prospect. Overnight, the

:47:53. > :47:57.weather front bringing rain across Scotland slips southwards. Ahead of

:47:58. > :48:02.it, cloud with breaks and early frost. Behind it, under clear skies,

:48:03. > :48:08.cold but also windy. Windy in the north and windy in the east. We

:48:09. > :48:13.start on that note tomorrow. Cold and frosty for some. The weather

:48:14. > :48:16.front producing patchy rain continued to sink across England and

:48:17. > :48:20.Wales through the day. The wind will be a feature especially down the

:48:21. > :48:27.North Sea coastline. That will blow in some showers. Across Yorkshire,

:48:28. > :48:30.Lincolnshire and East Anglia. It averages about where they should

:48:31. > :48:36.beat the stage in January. For Thursday, a weather front from the

:48:37. > :48:40.west will introduce rain. For central and eastern areas, drier and

:48:41. > :48:44.brighter with fewer showers. Again, temperatures nothing to write home

:48:45. > :48:49.about. As we head towards the end of the week, temperatures rise with

:48:50. > :48:55.more cloud and rain as well. Thank you. We are enjoying the show around

:48:56. > :48:59.London Zoo. I will not guess again. I knew I would get it wrong. Thank

:49:00. > :49:05.goodness you were the experts. It was a good guess!

:49:06. > :49:07.Do women pay more for similar products than men?

:49:08. > :49:10.Campaigners say so after it was revealed that razor blades aimed

:49:11. > :49:14.at women are more expensive than those for men.

:49:15. > :49:25.Because they are pink, probably. Maybe. That is the crux of all of

:49:26. > :49:27.this. Tesco trimmed the price of those

:49:28. > :49:30.razors, but campaigners say it's just one example of

:49:31. > :49:32.unfair gender pricing. Previously Tesco was charging

:49:33. > :49:35.20p more for the blades marketed at women,

:49:36. > :49:37.but they've shaved 10p off the price to bring them in line

:49:38. > :49:41.with the equivalent men's product. But campaigners say it's just one

:49:42. > :49:44.of many example of higher prices The Fawcett Society says women

:49:45. > :49:50.will often pay a third more and over 10% more

:49:51. > :49:58.than men for clothes. Stevie Wise is a campaigner on this

:49:59. > :50:02.issue and set up a petition last year asking Boots to

:50:03. > :50:04.review its pricing policy, which got more than

:50:05. > :50:15.44,000 signatures. Good morning. Nice to see you. We

:50:16. > :50:19.are talking about razorblades, but as I mentioned, it is just one

:50:20. > :50:23.example, and you have come up with many other cases where women are

:50:24. > :50:27.paying more than men for what are pretty similar if not identical

:50:28. > :50:32.products. That's right. It is not just product, even. Sometimes it is

:50:33. > :50:37.high Street services. When I first to the petition and was surprised by

:50:38. > :50:40.how quickly it took off, that is because people found it resonated

:50:41. > :50:43.because they could pick up so many different issues. I was constantly

:50:44. > :50:48.receiving messages from people showing me examples of things. It is

:50:49. > :50:53.not just races. The Fawcett Society's own research that this

:50:54. > :50:57.action from Tesco is based on used equivalent products in multiple

:50:58. > :51:02.supermarkets which were not just races. Toiletries, clothing. You

:51:03. > :51:06.will find examples in high Street services like my air cut it short

:51:07. > :51:12.like a lot of men, but mine will gust ?20 more in the same salon just

:51:13. > :51:18.because I'm a woman, and there is nothing I can do about that --

:51:19. > :51:23.thereat. What are the supermarkets saying? There are many identical

:51:24. > :51:28.products manufactured in the same place that costs more to make, but

:51:29. > :51:31.there is a difference in price? Why is that? Nobody knows. The retailers

:51:32. > :51:35.will blame the manufacture any manufacturer will blame the real

:51:36. > :51:40.talent. It is not clear who owns this decision. -- retailer. Who can

:51:41. > :51:45.make this decision to make this change? What is brilliant about this

:51:46. > :51:49.since the campaign started last year, this conversation happens more

:51:50. > :51:52.and more and more, and now retailers and supermarkets are having to

:51:53. > :51:56.respond to demands from customers, which is brilliant. Does this work

:51:57. > :52:02.the other way around? Other examples when things are aimed at men and

:52:03. > :52:06.cost more than women. Yes. In the Fawcett Society's research, I think

:52:07. > :52:10.there was an example we could go to one of the top supermarket and buy a

:52:11. > :52:13.pair of black trousers and it would be more expensive for men than

:52:14. > :52:18.women. Still on average across all of the products, women are still

:52:19. > :52:21.regularly paying more. There are individual examples where men will

:52:22. > :52:24.pay more for equivalent products, but on the whole, women are still

:52:25. > :52:30.affected more by this price difference. In the retailers

:52:31. > :52:36.listening or starting to change? Superdrug change their prices

:52:37. > :52:41.shortly after Bids change theirs, and they have done some work around

:52:42. > :52:45.taking the tampon tax away from customers, which is fantastic --

:52:46. > :52:48.thereat. They are responding to demands from their majority feel our

:52:49. > :52:55.customers and doing what we asked them to do, which is great -- Boots.

:52:56. > :52:58.Thank you. That is all from. More after eight o'clock. Very

:52:59. > :53:00.interesting that things are beginning change. Thank you. It is

:04:47. > :04:49.we can see a white car, we think it is an Audi, we think it may have

:04:50. > :04:56.been involved, alongside a Mercedes E class car and possibly a Jaguar.

:05:04. > :05:10.by police as they tried to presumably stop these cars. It is

:05:11. > :05:17.still a pretty uncommon occurrence, an incident like this in this

:05:18. > :05:21.country? Yes, it is very red. There have been a number of incidents,

:09:22. > :09:26.the details of where it will be spent and how it will be used. Some

:09:27. > :09:30.of the used to build but houses but to clear the plots of land and make

:09:31. > :09:35.them more attractive to developers, so they will get food of the

:09:44. > :09:49.ages of 23 and 40 one and at a discount, to try to help solve this

:09:50. > :09:52.housing crisis. There is a lot of different things

:09:53. > :09:56.that we need to do to help people in this country find more affordable

:09:57. > :10:02.housing. We have shared ownership, the Help To Buy scheme, right to

:10:03. > :10:06.buy, and the fundamental solution to this is to build more homes. So that

:10:07. > :10:12.housing becomes more affordable. But it will take time. We cannot do

:10:13. > :10:16.nothing in the meantime, so start times are an important contribution.

:10:17. > :10:21.That is the Housing minister, and the view is about killing two birds

:10:22. > :10:26.with one stone, getting more houses built, because supply is still a

:10:27. > :10:29.problem, but also tackling the issue for first-time buyers, helping them

:10:30. > :10:34.get onto the ladder, so more money to clear those sites hopefully means

:10:58. > :11:04.Not the nicest of news to receive if you are a Labour supporter. Not the

:11:05. > :11:09.news they were hoping to start the year with, but there will not be

:11:10. > :11:13.many politicians here who will be surprised by this report's findings.

:11:14. > :11:19.It is a pretty melancholy message that the party is too weak to win

:11:20. > :11:22.yet too strong to die, and the report also points out that they

:11:23. > :11:26.would need to win 3 million more votes than the Conservatives to

:11:27. > :11:31.secure a majority the next general election, something, the report

:11:32. > :11:35.says, is currently unthinkable. It points out the problem with party

:11:36. > :11:39.has with Brexit, with the Conservatives and Ukip targeting

:11:40. > :11:45.Labour's leave voters, and the Liberal Democrats hunting there

:11:46. > :11:50.remain voters. All the while, the report says Labour's message on

:11:51. > :11:54.Brexit is muffled and inconsistent. We put this to Jeremy Corbyn's

:11:55. > :12:00.office, they said he offered the only genuine alternative to a failed

:12:01. > :12:01.political establishment. But a real lack of New Year cheer for Labour

:12:02. > :12:06.this morning. Very nicely put. Vinyl sales are at the highest

:12:07. > :12:09.they've ever been in 25 years, with more than 3.2 million records

:12:10. > :12:11.sold last year. It marks the ninth consecutive year

:12:12. > :12:14.that sales have grown. It's believed sales have been

:12:15. > :12:17.increased because of events such as Record Store Day

:12:18. > :12:32.and an increasing audience Thank you for getting in touch with

:12:33. > :12:35.us about that, so many people sending pictures of their record

:12:54. > :12:55.With childhood obesity levels at an all-time high,

:12:56. > :13:01.we'll ask about what makes a healthy breakfast.

:13:02. > :13:04.First, here's what some parents told us about their children's

:13:05. > :13:17.I give my children the same food I eat myself.

:13:18. > :13:20.We have porridge or Weetabix, and that is what they eat,

:13:21. > :13:22.because we feel there is no special food for them because

:13:23. > :13:29.If they are running around a lot, I am not too concerned.

:13:30. > :13:35.Your kids see an advert, it has an influence.

:13:36. > :13:38.But it is more the taste that is the biggest factor.

:13:39. > :13:40.The kids try the sugary cereal and they want it again,

:13:41. > :13:44.it is hard for them to go back to the healthy ones.

:13:45. > :13:46.It is easy to follow, but some of it is misleading.

:13:47. > :13:53.It will say it has so many vitamins in, even though it is full of sugar.

:13:54. > :13:57.If I were to choose, they would not have any sugary cereals,

:13:58. > :14:18.They have launched an app. Let's give it a try. These are the

:14:19. > :14:23.things that people might eat. Your child may be having some sort

:14:24. > :14:26.of serial, or you might be, or a spread, and possibly a glass of

:14:27. > :14:30.juice. I will use the app to scan the bar

:14:31. > :14:35.code of this chocolate spread. Hold on a second. It says it is counting

:14:36. > :14:42.the sugar. It is probably not going to work now! It is counting the

:14:43. > :14:46.sugar. It did work in our ago! I can tell you.

:14:47. > :14:51.In our early experiment, what happened?

:14:52. > :14:55.Two tablespoons, or teaspoons, of sugar in your average serving of

:14:56. > :15:02.chocolate spread, as you would put on one piece of bread. In fridges,

:15:03. > :15:06.three and a half teaspoons in a normal glass of orange juice. If he

:15:07. > :15:10.had a piece of bread, a piece of toast, and an orange juice, that is

:15:11. > :15:18.your child's daily intake of sugar gone in breakfast.

:15:19. > :15:21.Dr Alison Tedstone is the director of diet and obesity

:15:22. > :15:23.She joins us from our London newsroom.

:15:24. > :15:31.Lots of people on their way to school this morning and the reality

:15:32. > :15:35.is their children have eaten more half the daily recommended intake of

:15:36. > :15:39.sugar? Lots of children are eating a lot of sugar and in total, our

:15:40. > :15:46.children are eating almost three times the maximum recommended level

:15:47. > :15:49.of sugar over the day. And that's contributing to the awful obesity

:15:50. > :15:54.statistics that we have in this country. Why is an app going to make

:15:55. > :15:58.a difference? It is part of empowering parents and making

:15:59. > :16:03.parents aware, helping parents to be aware of what they're buying. The

:16:04. > :16:06.app is easy to use. You can download it on to your phone and scan the

:16:07. > :16:10.products you've got in the cupboard and the products you give your kids

:16:11. > :16:13.every day and be aware and think about choosing lower sugar

:16:14. > :16:17.alternatives. We spoke to parents and children, I don't know how much

:16:18. > :16:22.you were able to hear, there was the key point that the little boy that

:16:23. > :16:27.says, "I wouldn't like you to eat the sugary cereals." He says, "I

:16:28. > :16:32.want to eat them. I like them." What can be done? Public Health England

:16:33. > :16:35.are working with manufacturers to reduce the amounts of sugar in every

:16:36. > :16:39.day products. So those products that that little boy is consuming, the

:16:40. > :16:44.idea is the products will go down in sugar levels and he wouldn't notice.

:16:45. > :16:50.We know that people don't notice small changes in the sugar content

:16:51. > :16:55.of their food, but that mum might consider buying a breakfast cereal

:16:56. > :16:59.and try weaning him off a high sugar breakfast cereal. It sounded like

:17:00. > :17:03.she was trying to do this. We talk about this so much. Are you

:17:04. > :17:06.frustrated about the pace of change. You say you're working with them,

:17:07. > :17:12.but are you frustrated with the pace of change? Well, concerted effort

:17:13. > :17:16.has only started since the Government launched its childhood

:17:17. > :17:20.obesity plan and we have been working with industry since August

:17:21. > :17:24.and we have been pleased with the level of engagement we have had with

:17:25. > :17:28.industry, but the proof of the pudding will be in the next few

:17:29. > :17:34.months. Very much the jury is still out, but we're optimistic about the

:17:35. > :17:39.changes that could be made. We have seen big shifts for example in

:17:40. > :17:44.sugary drinks levels of sugar since the Government announced the sugar

:17:45. > :17:50.levy on drinks. Talk about as well, if you would, about how, the sugar

:17:51. > :17:54.tax and is that going to make a difference? We know it will be on

:17:55. > :17:59.some drinks. Should it be wider than that? Well, the Government said it

:18:00. > :18:03.will consider other things in the future depending on how industry

:18:04. > :18:09.react to the voluntary action that they can take. And Public Health

:18:10. > :18:17.England will continue to monitor what's going on and where we think

:18:18. > :18:21.progress isn't being made we will make that very clear to everybody.

:18:22. > :18:25.Just briefly, people will be making choices this morning. What is the

:18:26. > :18:29.first thing that parents might want to think about? Well, if we're going

:18:30. > :18:32.from the start of the day, think about the breakfast cereals and

:18:33. > :18:36.spreads. They are key parts of children's diets. We really want

:18:37. > :18:38.children to have a healthy breakfast and have a great start to the

:18:39. > :18:42.morning and to be thinking about something that's a bit lower in

:18:43. > :18:45.sugar. Dr Alison Tedstone, thank you very much for your time this

:18:46. > :18:51.morning. Thank you. Lots of comments. A viewer says,

:18:52. > :19:02."Get up earlier and cook for your kids." Another viewer says, "Top

:19:03. > :19:07.being lazy and read the labels." Dale says, "How can you eat

:19:08. > :19:12.healthily when it is more than double the price."

:19:13. > :19:15.She's at London Zoo for the annual animal count!

:19:16. > :19:24.I see one lizard. What else have you got? Well, this is what we are going

:19:25. > :19:29.to be focussing on. Martin the zoo kerp has been helping us so much.

:19:30. > :19:34.What's this? We upstairs in one of our breeding rooms have a big sign

:19:35. > :19:38.saying, "Dragons." This is a forest dragon. They are from Indonesia and

:19:39. > :19:43.Malaysia. This particular one is about two years old. Wow. She is

:19:44. > :19:47.getting on really well. How do you know she is a girl? She has laid

:19:48. > :19:51.eggs! That's a stupid question. Thank you

:19:52. > :19:55.very much, Martin! Well, it is nice and warm as you'd expect in the

:19:56. > :20:05.reptile home, but it is not outside. Fur' outside there is a lot of frost

:20:06. > :20:08.around. Watch out for ice on untreated surfaces. We have heavy

:20:09. > :20:13.rain and stronger winds across the far north of Scotland. If you start

:20:14. > :20:17.in the south of England, blue skies, cold, temperatures below freezing

:20:18. > :20:20.and a lot of frost. As we drift over towards East Anglia, there is more

:20:21. > :20:24.cloud, but there is still a lot of sunshine and heading up the East

:20:25. > :20:28.Coast of England, we have a lot of sunshine, but it is cold and again,

:20:29. > :20:31.it is frosty. Parts of Eastern Scotland seeing some early sunshine,

:20:32. > :20:35.but there is more cloud around than yesterday. And again, don't forget,

:20:36. > :20:39.the rain in the far north and the windier conditions here. Western

:20:40. > :20:43.Scotland seeing some patchier rain and for Northern Ireland, north-west

:20:44. > :20:46.England and also North Wales, there is a bit more cloud around and that

:20:47. > :20:50.cloud is thick enough to be producing some showers. But for

:20:51. > :20:55.South Wales and south-west England we are back under the clear skies.

:20:56. > :20:58.Again a cold start it the day. Sub-zero temperatures and the risk

:20:59. > :21:01.of ice. So through the day, there will be more cloud than yesterday.

:21:02. > :21:05.We will hang on to the rain across the far north of Scotland, slipping

:21:06. > :21:09.further south, the northern half of the country will be breezy. And it

:21:10. > :21:13.is the southern part of England that will hang on to the sunshine for the

:21:14. > :21:18.longest. Temperatures in the range seven to nine Celsius. And then

:21:19. > :21:22.through the evening and overnight, a weather front producing the rain

:21:23. > :21:25.across Scotland sinks further south. For England and Wales, we will see

:21:26. > :21:30.quite a cloudy start, some breaks and then as the front comes in

:21:31. > :21:32.bringing rain, behind it, we will see clearer skies and it will be

:21:33. > :21:37.cold and once again, it will be windy. So there will be some pockets

:21:38. > :21:40.of frost around. Tomorrow, we start off with our weather front across

:21:41. > :21:45.England and Wales producing cloud and patchy rain and it will continue

:21:46. > :21:51.to sink southwards as we go through the day. Behind it under clearer

:21:52. > :21:58.skies, there will be sunshine. A noticeable stiff wind blowing down

:21:59. > :22:02.the North Sea. Temperature wise, not too dissimilar

:22:03. > :22:05.to what we are looking at todayment for Thursday, a weather front coming

:22:06. > :22:11.in from the west will introduce rain. For central and eastern areas,

:22:12. > :22:14.drier and brighter with fewer showers and temperatures roughly

:22:15. > :22:17.where they should be. As we head towards the end of the week,

:22:18. > :22:19.temperatures start to pick up and some of us will see some rain, Dan

:22:20. > :22:30.and Lou. STUDIO: Thank you very much, Carol.

:22:31. > :22:31.We have got more one more reptile house before we go. What do you

:22:32. > :22:37.think it will be? I don't know! For many, 2016 was marked

:22:38. > :22:40.by violence and bloodshed in Turkey, as waves of attacks and political

:22:41. > :22:42.instability shook the country. The latest terrorist attack saw 39

:22:43. > :22:45.people killed in an Istanbul nightclub as they celebrated

:22:46. > :22:48.the New Year. But what impact could the current

:22:49. > :22:53.situation in Turkey have on Britain? Andrew Finkel, a journalist

:22:54. > :22:56.and author living in Turkey joins us now from Belgium,

:22:57. > :23:04.where he has been over Andrew thank you very much for your

:23:05. > :23:08.time. Before we talk about the impact here in Britain, can I ask

:23:09. > :23:12.you about the impact in Istanbul bull. It is a city with 50 million

:23:13. > :23:16.people that live there. What's it like living there at the moment? The

:23:17. > :23:19.last few days we have been talking about the fear because there have

:23:20. > :23:23.been so many attacks in the last few months. Well, there have been many

:23:24. > :23:27.attacks and of course, we hoped we were leaving the attacks behind us

:23:28. > :23:33.with the old year, but the first thing that happened in the New Year

:23:34. > :23:37.was this horrendous attack on an Istanbul nightclub in a central part

:23:38. > :23:42.of the city. This is a huge city. It is larger than many countries. When

:23:43. > :23:46.these incidents happen, people don't go out that night, but of course, in

:23:47. > :23:52.time, you get used to it, you live with it, you can't live with that

:23:53. > :23:57.level of anxiety all the time. So it is a sickical thing and after an

:23:58. > :24:02.attack people get nervous, but then they, life has to go back to normal.

:24:03. > :24:05.Islamic State took responsibility for the attack yesterday. That's

:24:06. > :24:11.what we were reporting yesterday. What is their aim? Are they trying

:24:12. > :24:15.to drive a wedge in Turkish society? Is it about the policy with regards

:24:16. > :24:21.to Syria and Iraq? They have different motives. The principle

:24:22. > :24:26.motive, I assume, is that just before this attack occurred, Turkey,

:24:27. > :24:31.Russia, Iran, put their names to an agreement, a ceasefire, in Syria

:24:32. > :24:37.which more or less freed Turkey's hand to move against Islamic State

:24:38. > :24:40.targets in the north of Syria. And I think progress wasn't going as

:24:41. > :24:45.quickly as the Turkish Army had hoped. This attack was really a

:24:46. > :24:50.signal by the Islamic State to say that there will be consequence ifs

:24:51. > :24:57.you continue your advance. At the same time, they've chosen a target,

:24:58. > :25:01.a secular nightclub, a place where international visitors come and

:25:02. > :25:06.enjoy themselves, partly this is an economic target, it's a blow against

:25:07. > :25:12.the Turkish tourism industry, but it is an attempt to drive a wedge

:25:13. > :25:17.between Turkey's secular community and the sort of national, Islamic

:25:18. > :25:23.community which in the lead up to the New Year was critical of New

:25:24. > :25:28.Year celebrations as being something alien to Turkish and Islamic

:25:29. > :25:32.traditions. It shines a light on international relations for Turkey.

:25:33. > :25:37.What is relations like between Turkey and the UK? How important is

:25:38. > :25:44.that link? It is an important link. It is not just the UK, Turkey has

:25:45. > :25:48.this important border and in some ways a buffer for migrants of the

:25:49. > :25:53.there is millions of Syrian migrants in Turkey. It is very much the

:25:54. > :25:57.stability of Turkey, the ability of Turkey to be part of the

:25:58. > :26:02.international community, is very much an important element in

:26:03. > :26:05.European security and stability, not to mention that Turkey is an

:26:06. > :26:09.important trading partner. It is a very large country and it is well up

:26:10. > :26:15.there in European Union trading figures. So when things go wrong in

:26:16. > :26:20.Turkey that's, of course, an immediate concern to its European

:26:21. > :26:26.allies. The European allies are really caught between two stools at

:26:27. > :26:29.the moment. There is they rely on Turkey, they want Turkey to continue

:26:30. > :26:33.to play the security role, but at the same time, they see Turkey

:26:34. > :26:38.engaged in a form of let's call it self-harming. There was a military

:26:39. > :26:43.coup or an attempted coup over the summer in the summer in July, this

:26:44. > :26:48.year, ever since then Turkey has been under a form of emergency rule.

:26:49. > :26:51.They've used that emergency rule really to go against decent within

:26:52. > :26:56.the country. There is journalists in jail. The democratic values and

:26:57. > :27:03.liberties are really under assault in Turkey and Europe is sort of

:27:04. > :27:08.coughing to criticise what it sees as a way ahead for Turkey which

:27:09. > :27:10.would really undermine its democratically jit Massey and

:27:11. > :27:13.stability. Andrew Finkel, I really appreciate

:27:14. > :27:17.your expertise, thank you. It's time to get the news,

:27:18. > :30:39.travel and weather where you are. Plenty more on our website

:30:40. > :30:43.at the usual address. Now though it's back

:30:44. > :30:47.to Louise and Dan. Hello, this is Breakfast

:30:48. > :30:59.with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin. It has just gone 8:30am, thank you

:31:00. > :31:02.for being with us. We are back to normal after Christmas! Let's bring

:31:03. > :31:04.you up-to-date with the main stories.

:31:05. > :31:07.A man has been shot dead by police in an operation near the M62

:31:08. > :31:12.West Yorkshire Police says the operation was "pre-planned".

:31:13. > :31:14.The Independent Police Complaints Commission has sent

:31:15. > :31:19.Our reporter Phil Bodmer there for us now.

:31:20. > :31:28.Morning to you. We can see that they have screened the scene off. What

:31:29. > :31:33.more can you tell us? This road, the M62 slip Road westbound, has been

:31:34. > :31:40.closed for almost 15 hours since this incident last night. It was 6pm

:31:41. > :31:45.when a man died after being shot at by police. Behind those green

:31:46. > :31:49.screens are a number of cars, you can possibly make them out and

:31:50. > :31:53.essentially one of the cars involved, and Audi, looks to have

:31:54. > :32:02.bullet hole is in its windscreen. And a silver Mercedes E class, and

:32:03. > :32:06.two unmarked police cars. It is understood that these cars were

:32:07. > :32:10.travelling off the M62 westbound coming into Huddersfield when this

:32:11. > :32:15.happened. It was a planned operation. Not something they just

:32:16. > :32:20.came across, part of a targeted attempt presumably to stop something

:32:21. > :32:26.in progress. Someone died in the incident but police are keeping

:32:27. > :32:29.pretty tight lipped about the exact circumstances although we do know

:32:30. > :32:34.that the Independent Police Complaints Commission are

:32:35. > :32:41.investigating and also a number of people have been arrested. How

:32:42. > :32:48.common is this type of incident? It is very rare. We have had five fatal

:32:49. > :32:53.police shootings in the last nine months. Over the last decade there

:32:54. > :32:57.have been 22 fatal shootings in England and Wales so it is quite

:32:58. > :33:01.rare. It is amended mandatory referral when something like this

:33:02. > :33:06.happens, as far as West Yorkshire Police are concerned this is the

:33:07. > :33:09.first incident of its kind since December 2010, very rare indeed

:33:10. > :33:15.although this morning we expect further investigations to continue

:33:16. > :33:19.as police try to work at the exact circumstances of what happened last

:33:20. > :33:27.night at six o'clock. Thank you for the update. After the bank holiday

:33:28. > :33:29.some children are back at school today.

:33:30. > :33:31.Children are eating half their recommended daily sugar intake

:33:32. > :33:34.before they even get to school, according to a warning

:33:35. > :33:36.Public Health England says sugary cereals,

:33:37. > :33:40.Today it's launching a campaign to help us better understand

:33:41. > :33:43.Public Health England are working with manufacturers to reduce

:33:44. > :33:47.to reduce the levels of sugar in everyday products.

:33:48. > :33:51.So those products that little boy is consuming every day,

:33:52. > :33:54.the idea is, those products will gradually go down in sugar

:33:55. > :33:58.We know people don't notice small changes in the sugar

:33:59. > :34:05.But that mum might consider buying a breakfast cereal that's a bit

:34:06. > :34:08.lower in sugar and gradually try weaning him off such a high

:34:09. > :34:12.Attempts to secure a peace deal in Syria have been suspended

:34:13. > :34:14.after rebel groups accused government forces of

:34:15. > :34:19.Russia and Turkey, who brokered the current ceasefire,

:34:20. > :34:23.are trying to re-convene negotiations later this month.

:34:24. > :34:26.Meanwhile Kurdish activists have told the BBC that a British man has

:34:27. > :34:28.been killed in Syria, fighting against the

:34:29. > :34:32.Ryan Lock, who was 20 and from West Sussex,

:34:33. > :34:34.died just before Christmas during the battle to try

:34:35. > :34:41.New pictures have emerged of the suspect involved in the mass

:34:42. > :34:45.shooting at a nightclub in Istanbul at New Year.

:34:46. > :34:50.This is the man that police are looking for.

:34:51. > :34:52.Police say they have made 12 arrests so far.

:34:53. > :34:55.Yesterday Turkish media reported that special forces had raided

:34:56. > :34:58.a house in Turkey after a tip off, but the suspect was not found.

:34:59. > :35:00.So-called Islamic State have said it was behind the attack,

:35:01. > :35:05.which left 39 people dead and over 60 people in hospital.

:35:06. > :35:09.The Ministry of Defence says a British soldier has died in Iraq.

:35:10. > :35:13.It said the soldier, from the 2nd Battalion the Duke

:35:14. > :35:16.of Lancaster's Regiment, died near Baghdad,

:35:17. > :35:19.following an incident which is now being investigated.

:35:20. > :35:21.The regiment is training Iraqi and Kurdish security forces.

:35:22. > :35:23.The death wasn't the result of enemy activity.

:35:24. > :35:28.The soldier's family has been informed.

:35:29. > :35:30.Protests against increases in train fares are taking place at railway

:35:31. > :35:40.People gathered at King's Cross this morning, more than 100

:35:41. > :35:43.demonstrations are planned around the UK.

:35:44. > :35:46.Ticket prices are going up by an average of 2.3%.

:35:47. > :35:49.The centre-left think tank, the Fabian Society, has warned that

:35:50. > :35:51.Labour is "too weak" to win the next election.

:35:52. > :35:56.The Society, which has been developing ideas

:35:57. > :35:58.for Labour for decades, has urged the party

:35:59. > :36:02.to form an alliance with the Scottish Nationalists

:36:03. > :36:05.and the Liberal Democrats if it wants to return to power.

:36:06. > :36:11.Its analysis of polling and election data suggests the party could hold

:36:12. > :36:23.It is the award that everybody wants!

:36:24. > :36:25.The world's steepest residential road's been confirmed,

:36:26. > :36:27.and you wouldn't want to live at the top of it.

:36:28. > :36:31.I wouldn't mind living in New Zealand.

:36:32. > :36:34.The winner is Baldwin Street which is in New Zealand's South Island.

:36:35. > :36:36.At its steepest, the slope has a gradient of 35%,

:36:37. > :36:48.Look at that! It is officially the steepest street in the world. I will

:36:49. > :36:57.sound like Alan Partridge that there is the steepest B road in

:36:58. > :37:05.Derbyshire. It is worth cycling up. I would probably be walking it. It

:37:06. > :37:14.is beautiful, in a grassy valley. Save me, Sally! Are we going to

:37:15. > :37:25.scrap the plan for the programme? I will bring you this board. Later on

:37:26. > :37:31.we will have Keith Allen coming up, and Gary Barlow talking about Let It

:37:32. > :37:39.Shine. Can you both do happy faces? That is Pep after a win, looking

:37:40. > :37:42.really happy. I am really, really pleased to beat you, you can tell.

:37:43. > :37:45.It's not working! Manchester City are back up to third

:37:46. > :37:48.in the Premier League after a 2-1 win over Burnley but they had

:37:49. > :37:51.to play for an hour with only ten men after captain

:37:52. > :37:53.Fernandinho was sent off Gael Clichy eventually gave them

:37:54. > :37:57.the lead but Guardiola was clearly Guardiola didn't seem entirely happy

:37:58. > :38:04.in his post-match interview either. Speaking to our reporter

:38:05. > :38:08.Damian Johnson. The sending off -

:38:09. > :38:10.what was your view of the red You're the manager, I'm sure

:38:11. > :38:15.the fans would like to know. You don't seem that

:38:16. > :38:19.happy that you've won? More than you would believe,

:38:20. > :38:42.more than you would believe. And Manchester City still in the

:38:43. > :38:45.title race? They are still in the race. Thanks, peppermint. You're

:38:46. > :39:00.welcome. - thanks, Pep. Some people will think, he should

:39:01. > :39:05.not behave like that, the reporter did a good job of asking questions

:39:06. > :39:11.but sometimes you have a bad state and you have to be honest. At least

:39:12. > :39:16.he is showing how unhappy he is in a gritted teeth way. Tell you who else

:39:17. > :39:22.wasn't happy yesterday, Jurgen Klopp.

:39:23. > :39:25.twice threw away the lead at relegation-threatened Sunderland.

:39:26. > :39:28.Sadio Mane had put Liverpool 2-1 up, but Jermaine Defoe's second

:39:29. > :39:36.Liverpool stay second but are now five points behind Chelsea.

:39:37. > :39:39.West Ham's Sofiane Feghouli was sent off as Manchester United

:39:40. > :39:43.The goals came from Juan Mata and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

:39:44. > :39:48.There was more than a suggestion of offside about that one.

:39:49. > :39:50.Michael van Gerwen has won his second World Darts Championship.

:39:51. > :39:52.He beat reigning PDC Champion Gary Anderson 7-3

:39:53. > :39:56.It wasn't all plain sailing for the Dutchman though,

:39:57. > :39:59.as just as he was throwing for the match at 6-2 up,

:40:00. > :40:10.By this. A prankster stealing the trophy. That is not what you want.

:40:11. > :40:13.It did put him off a bit. But it put van Gerwen off delaying

:40:14. > :40:16.his coronation by another set. It was worth the extra wait though

:40:17. > :40:19.as he claimed victory in style to take the ?350,000 prize and end

:40:20. > :40:26.Anderson's hopes of I like those fireworks at the end.

:40:27. > :40:30.Someone brought the trophy back to its rightful place and there is the

:40:31. > :40:36.winner. It has been properly exciting this year. I will take you

:40:37. > :40:42.to the darts next year, you will love it. You will love that arts!

:40:43. > :40:49.That you need to make a sign! I'll look forward to it. And an outfit.

:40:50. > :40:52.Thank you, Sally. It is 20 minutes to nine.

:40:53. > :40:55.It was one of the bloodiest battles during World War I,

:40:56. > :40:58.with 325,000 Allied troops and 260,000 German soldiers

:40:59. > :41:02.To honour those who died there, and to mark the 100th

:41:03. > :41:03.anniversary of Passchendaele, two events will be

:41:04. > :41:07.Our correspondent Robert Hall is at the Menin Gate

:41:08. > :41:22.Good morning, Robert. Good morning from Ypres. These are the names of

:41:23. > :41:26.men in the First World War whose remains were never found were never

:41:27. > :41:31.identified and a great number of them were killed in the battle of

:41:32. > :41:37.Passchendaele. For many people it sums up World War I, its images were

:41:38. > :41:42.so powerful, because the soldiers in that period fought and died in a sea

:41:43. > :41:46.of mud. In a moment we will talk about the commemorations planned,

:41:47. > :41:52.first, lets his memories written down by those who there. My wound

:41:53. > :41:57.was slight and I was hobbling back. And then a shell burst slicks so I

:41:58. > :42:06.fell into the bottomless mud and lost the light. There was not a sign

:42:07. > :42:13.of life of any sort, not a bird, not even a rat or blade of grass. The

:42:14. > :42:17.words of those who tried to sum up the hell of Passchendaele. Three

:42:18. > :42:23.months when more than half a million men died.

:42:24. > :42:25.Three months when the Allied army fought an enemy,

:42:26. > :42:28.the mud and the cold to gain a few miles of ground.

:42:29. > :42:30.A century ago, Ypres was under siege.

:42:31. > :42:33.The roads leading north climbed steadily to the German lines

:42:34. > :42:44.which overlooked the Allies on three sides.

:42:45. > :42:46.After the war, the British made this sanitised

:42:47. > :42:49.Tales of personal heroism to distract from the ghastly reality.

:42:50. > :42:52.The reality of uphill advances, a sucking quagmire, and the horrors

:42:53. > :43:00.This year's commemorations will be focused in Ypres, a city rebuilt

:43:01. > :43:07.There will be a series of events built around remembrance

:43:08. > :43:12.and the need to help visitors understand what happened here.

:43:13. > :43:14.The commemorative events will take place over two days,

:43:15. > :43:27.starting with the traditional Last Post ceremony at Menin Gate

:43:28. > :43:29.followed by commemorative events in the Market Square

:43:30. > :43:36.On a freezing night under the Menin Gate, the bugles

:43:37. > :43:40.Passchendaele is burnt into Ypres's turbulent history.

:43:41. > :43:43.Passchendaele is the loss of a lot of lives for us, and a lot of people

:43:44. > :43:46.that we commemorate day after day, and we want to continue

:43:47. > :43:53.the message that the Last Post has not forgotten.

:43:54. > :43:55.This summer's commemorations will be a partnership with a city whose

:43:56. > :44:14.The Commonwealth War Graves Commission will be at the heart of

:44:15. > :44:19.those commemorations, it is going to be a very big year but there is this

:44:20. > :44:27.blend of trying to engage people with everything. It's very

:44:28. > :44:32.difficult, it is important that we maintain the integrity of our

:44:33. > :44:36.symmetries and provide a comfortable defence base for the public so that

:44:37. > :44:43.they can come and see events to commemorate what happened 100 years

:44:44. > :44:46.ago. All year round we get parties, particularly of school children and

:44:47. > :44:53.families following a trail. It is the cemeteries that will remain at

:44:54. > :44:58.the focus of these commemorations. We have plans, the commission is 100

:44:59. > :45:03.years old this year but our plan is to ensure they remain places of

:45:04. > :45:06.visitors to experience and learn from. We are introducing a new

:45:07. > :45:10.internship scheme this year which will see young people acting as

:45:11. > :45:16.guides in key locations helping people understand what happened in

:45:17. > :45:22.the first and Second World Wars. It is a challenge to get people engaged

:45:23. > :45:27.so long after the event? We had a natural audience in the sons and

:45:28. > :45:29.daughters of those who were here, as time passes that audience has

:45:30. > :45:32.diminished and we are now looking to engage more people and grow the

:45:33. > :45:37.knowledge about what happened and what we do a 100 years after the

:45:38. > :45:44.war. Thank you very much. If you want to take part in the ballot the

:45:45. > :45:52.website can be contacted. Back to the studio.

:45:53. > :46:00.Just some breaking news on the shooting on the 62 last night. A man

:46:01. > :46:04.was shot dead by West Yorkshire Police in what are calling a

:46:05. > :46:08.preplanned operation. Police have released a bit more information.

:46:09. > :46:12.They are saying the incident was not related to terrorism and there were

:46:13. > :46:16.five arrests in total. Three from the actual shooting and a further

:46:17. > :46:21.two when a vehicle was stopped in Bradford at the same time. When we

:46:22. > :46:22.get more details, we will bring them to but the BBC News Channel will

:46:23. > :46:25.talk about that through the day. Here's Carol with a look

:46:26. > :46:28.at this morning's weather. She's at London Zoo this morning

:46:29. > :46:42.for the annual animal count. Is that a horse? It is a magnificent

:46:43. > :46:48.giant tour this. Today, the annual stock take of animals at London zoo

:46:49. > :46:55.is well underway. Martin has been with us all morning, tell us about

:46:56. > :47:01.these chaps? This is a female called Dolly. We have three females, Polly

:47:02. > :47:06.as well. They all in their early 20s. They are coming over because

:47:07. > :47:11.what they want us to do is to touch them. What we might see if we are

:47:12. > :47:16.lucky is they will go into a little trans. They have a symbiotic

:47:17. > :47:20.relationship with the little birds in the Galapagos Islands. When they

:47:21. > :47:25.come and land on their shelves, they will peck at their legs and get rid

:47:26. > :47:30.of the parasites. In return, they will stretch out into this trans,

:47:31. > :47:37.maximise the surface area. The birds get a free dinner, everyone is

:47:38. > :47:42.happy. These guys will be in this trans for a few minutes, depending

:47:43. > :47:46.on how diligent we are with robbing them. There is another one coming up

:47:47. > :47:55.behind the camera man, just to warn you in case you get bumped. You have

:47:56. > :47:59.thousands of animals? It varies from department to department. In

:48:00. > :48:03.reptiles we tend to have pretty large animals and it is a walk in

:48:04. > :48:08.the park to count them. We count them every day so we know what we

:48:09. > :48:12.have got. We need to have a snap once a year for licensing purposes

:48:13. > :48:17.and amongst other things. It is harder for other departments. So the

:48:18. > :48:26.insect team have a real job on their hands. They have to count an entire

:48:27. > :48:31.colony as one animal, but generally speaking, everything is counted. The

:48:32. > :48:41.aquarium dies will take photographs so they don't count twice. This lady

:48:42. > :48:42.wants another stroke. It is very warm in here. But outside it is

:48:43. > :48:52.cold. We have persistent rain across the

:48:53. > :48:57.far north of Scotland. In the south, we are looking at sunshine but there

:48:58. > :49:03.is a lot of frost. Temperatures below freezing. More cloud across

:49:04. > :49:06.East Anglia and as we travel up the east coast of England, bright skies.

:49:07. > :49:11.Parts of eastern Scotland seeing some sunshine this morning, but

:49:12. > :49:16.generally there will be more cloud than yesterday across Scotland with

:49:17. > :49:22.the rain across the northern isles. In Shetland, gusts of 60 miles an

:49:23. > :49:25.hour. For western Scotland, patchy rain and then in Northern Ireland

:49:26. > :49:29.and north-west England and North Wales, we are looking at some

:49:30. > :49:33.showers. South Wales and south-west England again, a cold start with the

:49:34. > :49:39.risk of eyes. Some sunshine and subzero temperatures. The rain

:49:40. > :49:43.across the far north of Scotland sinks further south. Very windy

:49:44. > :49:47.here. But for the northern half of the country, it will be a breezy

:49:48. > :49:52.day. It is the far south of England that will hold onto the sunshine for

:49:53. > :49:57.the longest. Temperatures generally in the range of seven to about nine

:49:58. > :50:03.Celsius. Nothing to write home about. If you are in the breeze it

:50:04. > :50:07.will feel cold. We are getting some movement here! Overnight, the

:50:08. > :50:11.weather front sinks further south bringing rain and cloud with it. I

:50:12. > :50:14.had a bid for England and Wales it will be cloudy with one or two

:50:15. > :50:19.breaks. Behind it we see clearer skies coming in but it will be

:50:20. > :50:23.windy. A touch of frost Iran. The wind is strongest across the North

:50:24. > :50:28.and the east. The leaders into tomorrow. A weather front for

:50:29. > :50:32.England and Wales will produce some cloud and spots of rain. Continuing

:50:33. > :50:36.this think steadily southwards. Behind it clearer skies and

:50:37. > :50:40.sunshine. Will feel cold as well and we will have a strong wind coming

:50:41. > :50:44.down the North Sea. That is likely to blow in some showers across

:50:45. > :50:48.eastern coastal counties of England into East Anglia as well. On

:50:49. > :50:53.Thursday a new weather front comes in from the West. It will introduce

:50:54. > :51:00.rain for the rest of the UK it will be drier and brighter but it will

:51:01. > :51:04.still feel cold. By the end of the week it starts to get milder but it

:51:05. > :51:13.will be cloudy and also it is going to introduce some rain as well. It

:51:14. > :51:20.has been fabulous here this morning. We can show you Martin with the two

:51:21. > :51:30.girls. They are lovely. They are enjoying this. They come over every

:51:31. > :51:31.morning for this. That is adorable. Thank you so much, it has been

:51:32. > :51:42.fantastic. It is like Crocodile Dundee with the

:51:43. > :51:47.dog track. I don't remember that trick. I shall

:51:48. > :51:51.demonstrate that at a later date, move on.

:51:52. > :51:53.Set in the late 19th century, the play 'Gas Light'

:51:54. > :51:56.is a psychological thriller with ghostly goings on in the house

:51:57. > :52:02.But it's only when a detective gets involved that the real

:52:03. > :52:06.Joining us now is Keith Allen who plays the detective,

:52:07. > :52:15.What I like about the pair of view, on an occasion like this you say we

:52:16. > :52:20.love the original production of Gaslight, but none of you knew much

:52:21. > :52:28.about it at all so coming into this with fresh eyes. What can you tell

:52:29. > :52:36.us? Can't give too much away. You have ruined it by calling me a

:52:37. > :52:39.detective. Sorry! Like you say, it is a psychological thriller. Very

:52:40. > :52:47.multilayered. I had never heard of it. When I read it, I was a little

:52:48. > :52:52.dubious, I have to say. But I accepted it because I thought it was

:52:53. > :52:58.a great challenge. As we have rehearsed it, it has become more and

:52:59. > :53:03.more, it reveals itself. There is a lot more to it than you initially

:53:04. > :53:10.thing. I mean that sincerely. I have never done anything like this. The

:53:11. > :53:13.layers become apparent every day. This is catering to an audience at

:53:14. > :53:18.the time it was written and the challenge for us is to make it work

:53:19. > :53:24.now. It has been quite tough at times, but that is the joy of doing

:53:25. > :53:31.theatre and all pieces. Tell us about your character, she is quite a

:53:32. > :53:35.strong character? Yes, Bella. From the beginning you do like her, but

:53:36. > :53:41.you are not sure which direction it is going and who is going mad. The

:53:42. > :53:46.subject of coercive control is so interesting, because where is the

:53:47. > :53:49.line drawn in everyday lives. We might be gas lighting people all of

:53:50. > :53:57.the time but the term comes from the play. Bella, we see her journey.

:53:58. > :54:00.Even though it is in the 19th century and written a long time ago,

:54:01. > :54:08.you can see lots of modern parallels? It is very clever. It is

:54:09. > :54:13.not a Victorian play, it was written in 1938, set in Victorian times, so

:54:14. > :54:18.it is a modern piece and depressing piece considering the world we live

:54:19. > :54:22.in. This idea of who is controlling who and who isn't manipulating what.

:54:23. > :54:27.It is a storyline at the moment which is hard-hitting. Gas lighting

:54:28. > :54:40.means, controlling people, is that what it means? Yes, with gas! If you

:54:41. > :54:44.have got electric, it doesn't apply. Where are you taking this, a

:54:45. > :54:51.nationwide tour? Yes, it is. Where are we going, Keith? We're starting

:54:52. > :54:57.in Birmingham, then we go to Aylesbury, then we go to Woking. I

:54:58. > :55:06.can do this, because I am learning lines. Sheffield, Cardiff, York,

:55:07. > :55:11.Cambridge, all over the place. Kara, you talk about dyslexia, how does it

:55:12. > :55:15.affect you learning your lines? I have this process and different

:55:16. > :55:22.tricks. I use these greener lens glasses and it helps. I am just a

:55:23. > :55:30.bit slow, aren't I? Together, we will be all right by Friday. Who

:55:31. > :55:34.knows. You have a brand-new drama on ITV, the halcyon, which started last

:55:35. > :55:46.night. Can I ask you about your bottom? Why not? Have you seen the

:55:47. > :55:51.episode yet, Keith. It went down well on social media but there was

:55:52. > :55:57.an incident of bare bottom cheeks. The big question everyone was asking

:55:58. > :56:05.last night, whether yours, did you have a stand in? I don't know if I

:56:06. > :56:12.should admit to it or not. It was me and less they re-filmed it. Where

:56:13. > :56:16.you nervous about that scene? Yes, everyone else is fully closed. The

:56:17. > :56:27.wardrobe department made sure I was comfortable. Have you ever had a

:56:28. > :56:32.stunned bottom, Keith? In Shallow Grave, that was not my appendage.

:56:33. > :56:40.You have just ruined that for the nation. Lovely to see you, thank you

:56:41. > :56:48.both very much for coming in. Thank you for clearing that up as well.

:56:49. > :56:50.Gaslight begins its tour of theatres around the UK on Friday.

:56:51. > :56:53.If you're missing Strictly Come Dancing and the X Factor,

:56:54. > :56:55.two more singing contests are taking over Saturday night TV

:56:56. > :57:00.On BBC One there's the launch of Gary Barlow's talent

:57:01. > :57:03.show 'Let It Shine', where he searches for the cast

:57:04. > :57:06.An hour later 'The Voice' begins its ITV debut,

:57:07. > :57:11.but is there really an appetite for even more TV talent shows?

:57:12. > :57:12.Our entertainment correspondent Colin Paterson spoke

:57:13. > :57:16.The start of January, a BBC One Saturday night singing

:57:17. > :57:28.After five years, that has moved to ITV, replaced by Let It Shine.

:57:29. > :57:38.The face behind it was previously an X Factor judge for three seasons.

:57:39. > :57:41.Gary Barlow, no stranger to the TV talent singing show.

:57:42. > :57:50.It is obviously very exciting because it is my own show.

:57:51. > :57:52.These guys we are casting at the moment, the endgame

:57:53. > :57:56.of this whole programme is that they will have a part

:57:57. > :57:59.in a new musical featuring all of the music of Take That.

:58:00. > :58:01.# Family asked me why you let me come #.

:58:02. > :58:05.Saturday night singing contests have had a hard time.

:58:06. > :58:07.December's The X Factor final was the least watched

:58:08. > :58:09.in the show's history, and last year's The Voice

:58:10. > :58:15.What makes you think there is room or the appetite

:58:16. > :58:22.There is gut instinct and a lot of research saying people

:58:23. > :58:25.at the beginning of a dark winter want some real treat on TV

:58:26. > :58:29.because Christmas is finished and everything is finished.

:58:30. > :58:33.You don't want TV to suddenly desert you.

:58:34. > :58:36.And one of the show's judges has a lot of Saturday

:58:37. > :58:41.Dannii Minogue was on The X Factor for four years.

:58:42. > :58:44.What is unusual is you will be up against The Voice,

:58:45. > :58:57.The Voice is really settled into what it is doing

:58:58. > :59:06.I mean, we are giving people the skills they can

:59:07. > :59:08.take on to use forever, but then also offering

:59:09. > :59:16.That is a really big job for someone.

:59:17. > :59:20.And every contestant I spoke to said this was the first time they had

:59:21. > :59:22.auditioned for a TV talent show, and it was the format

:59:23. > :59:30.To be put on a platform and given the opportunity to do my style

:59:31. > :59:33.and tricks but actually sing as well, I can't ask

:59:34. > :59:37.I can sing, play instruments, dance and act as well.

:59:38. > :59:45.There is not a show that provides those options.

:59:46. > :59:48.As for Gary Barlow, he is not overawed about Let It Shine starting

:59:49. > :59:57.on the very same night The Voice makes its ITV debut.

:59:58. > :00:02.I don't look right or left, I just concentrate on what we are doing

:00:03. > :00:04.and make it the best quality it can be.

:00:05. > :00:09.Gary Barlow resisting the chance to say 'take that'

:00:10. > :00:31.They're known and loved for their scratchy and authentic

:00:32. > :00:33.sound and the humble 12 inch's popularity is continuing to boom.

:00:34. > :00:36.How's this for a statistic - more than 3.2 million LPs

:00:37. > :00:38.were sold last year, which is the highest

:00:39. > :01:01.We've been to a record store to ask people there why they value vinyl.

:01:02. > :01:08.I buy the music because I like the physical format, it is a cliche but

:01:09. > :01:13.it is good to go home and read the cover. My parents listen to vinyl

:01:14. > :01:18.and they say, you don't know what music is like until you listen to it

:01:19. > :01:24.on final. It is fascinating how it has come back. It's a feeling

:01:25. > :01:28.knowing you have spent half an hour in a record store and found a gem,

:01:29. > :01:33.it is really satisfying. You get more of a nice thing for your money.

:01:34. > :01:39.It's not crackly, I think it's got a better effect and it looks cooler.

:01:40. > :01:43.You buy things in the past and forget it and then you remember and

:01:44. > :01:48.it all comes together quite well. You can see how your tastes are

:01:49. > :01:53.progressed. As soon as people come to my plays the first thing they

:01:54. > :01:57.look that is all the records, it's like a conversation piece. It is

:01:58. > :02:04.more than a fad, if it was a fad it would have gone out. Yes. Remember

:02:05. > :02:06.the needle scratch, that was always bad news although it was a proper

:02:07. > :02:08.sound. So what does this rise mean

:02:09. > :02:10.to the music industry? Vanessa Higgins founded

:02:11. > :02:22.and runs her own record label. Final is back, a big smile on your

:02:23. > :02:25.face. And is fantastic that people are embracing a physical product in

:02:26. > :02:32.this way and we are really seeing it grow. Why is this? It's a misnomer

:02:33. > :02:36.that only the mature listeners like vinyl, across the generations people

:02:37. > :02:41.want to experience music, it might be as a life experience or it might

:02:42. > :02:50.mean putting an album on the turntable and listening to things

:02:51. > :02:56.all the way through. It's a whole process, you have your lyrics there

:02:57. > :03:03.and everything. Hallen has got in contact saying the War Of The Worlds

:03:04. > :03:09.sounds much better on vinyl. People who love sound, the sound Ninjas

:03:10. > :03:14.love the authentic sound. Not just only LPs, music consumption is

:03:15. > :03:19.rising across the board. A huge rise in streaming, in the first week of

:03:20. > :03:24.December over 1 billion streams in a week which is massive. How does

:03:25. > :03:30.streaming go alongside final? Are people both streaming an album and

:03:31. > :03:37.buying the final version? Music fans of all ages are using different ways

:03:38. > :03:39.of listening to music, you might use streaming to discover a new artist

:03:40. > :03:46.and find an album you love and then you will go out and buy the full

:03:47. > :03:51.album, whether on CD or on vinyl. A lot of people are making the point

:03:52. > :03:57.that they luxury items, expensive to buy. They are. A lot of pressing

:03:58. > :04:01.plants closed down and they have yet to build up the gains are now we've

:04:02. > :04:04.got a problem where more people want vinyl than we can supply at the

:04:05. > :04:12.time. As the market grows again I think that will continue but we hope

:04:13. > :04:16.people will support artists during this period. One viewers says that

:04:17. > :04:20.she threw out her cassette tapes when she moved house and calls us of

:04:21. > :04:29.a doughnut, another says it is a good experience to have and someone

:04:30. > :04:34.adds that final gives a better listening experience, ask any audio

:04:35. > :04:39.file which is probably better to say than a sound Ninja! In the top ten

:04:40. > :04:44.album sales last year only two of them are new albums, a lot of them

:04:45. > :04:46.are classic releases. People are definitely building up their

:04:47. > :04:53.collections with classic albums again. As the pressing lads are

:04:54. > :04:57.limited, at the start label will produce an album that they know will

:04:58. > :05:01.have a guaranteed sale but as it grows and people support newer

:05:02. > :05:07.artists, that will change as well and I'm looking forward to seeing

:05:08. > :05:11.more new artists coming through on. People are telling us that they

:05:12. > :05:18.really regret getting rid of albums, now some of them are quite valuable.

:05:19. > :05:25.Recently I found a copy of Now That's What I Call Music One. They

:05:26. > :05:30.are not with as much as I thought! But hold onto your vinyl because

:05:31. > :05:34.those original pressings will be worth a lot! So many people

:05:35. > :05:38.appreciate their final and a lot of people got a record player for

:05:39. > :05:42.Christmas, you might be in a job for some time! I hope so.

:05:43. > :05:44.In a moment we speak to explorer Levison Wood about his latest

:05:45. > :05:46.terrifying adventure across Central America.

:05:47. > :05:48.Before we do, let's take a last, brief look at the headlines

:05:49. > :07:29.Join me then. Much more about all these stories on the website at the

:07:30. > :07:38.usual address. He's survived the freezing mountains

:07:39. > :07:43.of the Himalayas and an armed robbery as he followed

:07:44. > :07:45.the River Nile in Tanzania. For his latest adventure,

:07:46. > :07:48.Levison Wood headed straight for the jungles and ganglands

:07:49. > :07:50.of Central America. He crossed eight countries

:07:51. > :07:52.and walked nearly 2,000 miles to uncover the history of some

:07:53. > :07:55.of the region's earliest settlers. Levison's here, first here's a quick

:07:56. > :08:11.look and what we can expect I will take 4 million steps over

:08:12. > :08:17.remote, unpredictable... I've never seen anything like this before...

:08:18. > :08:22.And beautiful landscapes. I can see everything, this is absolutely

:08:23. > :08:27.incredible. I will see Central America through the eyes of the

:08:28. > :08:32.people who live here. A dangerous business being a past or around

:08:33. > :08:39.these parts, you don't get that if Europe sticks together!

:08:40. > :08:48.Levison is with us now. Another extraordinary journey. Why is the

:08:49. > :08:53.walking is so crucial to it? Is an opportunity to travel at the slowest

:08:54. > :08:56.pace. It is the way that human beings have evolved. It means that

:08:57. > :09:01.you get to meet so many incredible people along the way and I think

:09:02. > :09:07.people find that accessible, people can walk, perhaps not 2000 miles but

:09:08. > :09:13.you go to places that you cannot necessarily reach any other way. If

:09:14. > :09:20.you are in a car you don't stop and talk to people. You might speed past

:09:21. > :09:25.and take a photo. Along Highway in America only has one gap in it which

:09:26. > :09:30.is dense Jungle. So many people have tried to get through through their

:09:31. > :09:35.other figures and failed, it's quite a hostile place. It's the nemesis of

:09:36. > :09:40.Overland explanation and it has fascinated me since I read about it

:09:41. > :09:45.as a kid. This gap of Jungle, about 70 miles between Panama and

:09:46. > :09:52.Colombia. The thousands of years, the only people who got through and

:09:53. > :09:56.where tribes, and these days, in 30 or 40 years, because of rebels and

:09:57. > :10:00.drug was it is completely off limits. It was a privilege to

:10:01. > :10:08.explore that region and crossed it by foot. How was it? I won't spoil

:10:09. > :10:13.it but it was a bit dodgy, a lot of excitement along the way! You can't

:10:14. > :10:17.go into this lightly because you must know how to survive in a Jungle

:10:18. > :10:23.and you need access to people who can show you that. It takes a lot of

:10:24. > :10:29.planning and preparation. I walked through eight very different

:10:30. > :10:32.countries. The permits you have to get and guides through dangerous

:10:33. > :10:36.regions and we travelled through some difficult places, gangland

:10:37. > :10:48.lands of places like Honda Russ are quite dangerous. -- Honduras. Here

:10:49. > :10:54.is a clip that we can play. We are deep in the country and so far the

:10:55. > :11:29.roads have been quiet. Alberto! But things can change quickly.

:11:30. > :11:38.There are still many more out there? Yes, and they have weapons with

:11:39. > :11:42.them. The fugitives are linked to the most feared drug cartel in

:11:43. > :11:50.Mexico and we are on their home turf. Not things that you would take

:11:51. > :11:56.up lightly but you are happy to do so? It is part of the job, I

:11:57. > :12:01.suppose. You seen so many amazing things along the way and one of them

:12:02. > :12:08.was a kind of sinkhole. And you went diving and what did you find? In

:12:09. > :12:13.that part of the Yucatan said no Overland rivers, you get the

:12:14. > :12:17.subterranean cave system and then at about 6000 of these and only a

:12:18. > :12:21.handful have been explored so we got the chance to abseil down into one

:12:22. > :12:27.of these underwater caves and dive into it. You found some gruesome

:12:28. > :12:37.things. The ancient miners used to live human sacrifices and throw

:12:38. > :12:41.people down and we found lots of ancient human remains. Over the

:12:42. > :12:43.years people have watched your other programmes and famously when you

:12:44. > :12:49.filmed a programme about a mile one of your group died of heat

:12:50. > :12:52.exhaustion. That's right. Looking back it must have been so hard to

:12:53. > :12:57.keep making the programme after mother passed away. Of course, when

:12:58. > :13:01.something like that happens it is an incredible tragedy and it makes you

:13:02. > :13:06.think about the risks and dangers involved. I take it very seriously.

:13:07. > :13:11.There was a lot of preparation and planning that went into these things

:13:12. > :13:17.but ultimately it is an expedition with risks. And parts of this world

:13:18. > :13:20.are in many ways and discovered. One of the reasons I wanted to go to

:13:21. > :13:27.Central America because people go on holiday to places like Costa Rica

:13:28. > :13:29.but places like Honduras are very much not explored, especially the

:13:30. > :13:32.Jungle! Thank you very much. Levison's series 'Walking

:13:33. > :13:34.the Americas' starts this Sunday That's all from

:13:35. > :13:38.Breakfast this morning. We asked you who's left you feeling

:13:39. > :13:41.ripped off when it comes to your holidays, and you came back with

:13:42. > :13:46.a catalogue of travel disasters. When we got to the hotel, it wasn't

:13:47. > :13:49.to the standard... We felt totally ripped off,

:13:50. > :13:52.and we paid to move somewhere else. that somebody else has paid less for

:13:53. > :13:57.the holiday that I paid more for. So, whether it's a deliberate

:13:58. > :14:00.rip-off, a simple mistake or a catch

:14:01. > :14:04.in the small print,
