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

:00:07. > :00:12.The British ambassador to the EU resigns and tells his staff

:00:13. > :00:15.to challenge "muddled thinking" and "speak truth to power"

:00:16. > :00:17.after he resigned ahead of Brexit talks.

:00:18. > :00:19.Sir Ivan Rogers strongly criticised the government's preparations

:00:20. > :00:22.for leaving the EU saying senior ministers needed to hear

:00:23. > :00:41.what he called "unvarnished" and "uncomfortable" views.

:00:42. > :00:49.Also this morning: After a Paralympian wet herself on a train

:00:50. > :00:51.because the disabled toilet was out of action,

:00:52. > :00:54.the Government tells Breakfast it will tighten up the rules around

:00:55. > :01:01.A charity warns that a lack of basic care for asthma patients in the UK

:01:02. > :01:03.could "cost lives," as it suggests over three million people

:01:04. > :01:13.The pay gap between men and women in their 20s has narrowed

:01:14. > :01:16.to its lowest level ever, but if you're in your 30s or 40s

:01:17. > :01:25.In sport, a fantastic comeback from Arsenal,

:01:26. > :01:28.who came back from 3-0 down with 20 minutes left to draw

:01:29. > :01:36.The Natural History Museum prepares to dismantle Dippy the diplodocus.

:01:37. > :01:41.After 100 years in the same spot, the dinosaur is going on tour.

:01:42. > :01:53.It is a cloudy start for England and Wales Cricket Board in with some

:01:54. > :01:56.drizzle. It will brighten up, though, particular central and

:01:57. > :02:01.eastern areas. A cold start for Scotland and Northern Ireland with

:02:02. > :02:03.some clear skies. Some sunshine, if you wintry showers but a keen wind

:02:04. > :02:04.down the North Sea coast. More details on the

:02:05. > :02:06.weather in 15 minutes. Britain's outgoing ambassador

:02:07. > :02:10.to the European Union, Sir Ivan Rogers, has strongly

:02:11. > :02:12.criticised the government's In his resignation letter he said

:02:13. > :02:16.he didn't know what ministers' negotiating objectives

:02:17. > :02:18.were and called on his colleagues to challenge what he

:02:19. > :02:20.called muddled thinking. Our diplomatic correspondent,

:02:21. > :02:35.James Landale, reports. Sir Ivan Rogers has been Britain's

:02:36. > :02:38.ambassador to the EU for three years and his criticisms about the

:02:39. > :02:43.government's repressions for Brexit will be hard to ignore. In his

:02:44. > :02:55.resignation e-mail he says there is a short supply of... And he says...

:02:56. > :02:59.He reveals that even he does not know what the government's

:03:00. > :03:06.negotiating objectives for Brexit will be. But it is Sir Ivan implicit

:03:07. > :03:10.and thinly veiled criticism of ministers that is most telling. He

:03:11. > :03:14.urges fellow officials never to be afraid to speak truth to power and

:03:15. > :03:18.to challenge what he calls muddled thinking and ill founded arguments.

:03:19. > :03:22.He says they should support each other in difficult moments when they

:03:23. > :03:26.have to deliver messages that are disagreeable to those who need to

:03:27. > :03:31.hear them. So, Sir Ivan's charge is a serious one, that the government

:03:32. > :03:32.isn't ready for Brexit and it is ignoring the advice of its

:03:33. > :03:34.diplomats. Our political correspondent

:03:35. > :03:44.Iain Watson joins us from How serious is this for the

:03:45. > :03:48.government? He is clearly an incredibly experienced man. He is

:03:49. > :03:53.very experienced. Some people want Britain to leave the EU. They say he

:03:54. > :03:57.is too experienced, he knows Brussels too well and they want to

:03:58. > :04:01.replace him with someone who wants Brexit. Irrespective of your views

:04:02. > :04:09.on the referendum it is a significant departure for the

:04:10. > :04:13.following reasons, part -- in part went the BBC revealed he was

:04:14. > :04:16.suggesting it might take 10 years to get a trade deal. That was based on

:04:17. > :04:23.calls with people from other EU nations. He is therefore saying it

:04:24. > :04:26.is important that people who represent Britain challenge muddled

:04:27. > :04:30.thinking by ministers. For me, the most significant thing in this

:04:31. > :04:35.letter is when he says, I quote, we don't know what the government will

:04:36. > :04:40.set as it is negotiating objectives with the EU. This isn't about the

:04:41. > :04:47.detail, it is the broad brush in or out, partially out of the customs

:04:48. > :04:51.you union and the single market. If we are leaving the EU in a few

:04:52. > :04:57.months, the government will have to answer this criticism. They will be

:04:58. > :05:03.grateful that MPs at Westminster don't return until next week, so

:05:04. > :05:07.they cannot be dragged to the House of Commons to answer questions this

:05:08. > :05:10.week, but it raises questions about how other ministers are handling

:05:11. > :05:11.their negotiations. Thank you for that. Plenty of questions will arise

:05:12. > :05:13.from that. And in half an hour we'll be

:05:14. > :05:17.speaking to the Shadow Secretary Meanwhile, the UK's countryside

:05:18. > :05:21.and wildlife could suffer post Brexit, according to a cross

:05:22. > :05:24.party committee of MPs. Farmers could also face a loss

:05:25. > :05:27.of subsidies according to the report by the Environmental

:05:28. > :05:29.Audit Committee. It calls for new laws to ensure

:05:30. > :05:32.existing protections for farming are not weakened once

:05:33. > :05:34.Britain leaves the EU. The Government says it is committed

:05:35. > :05:38.to safeguarding and improving them. Former drivers for a private

:05:39. > :05:41.ambulance firm that provides emergency cover for the NHS say

:05:42. > :05:44.they were given just an hour's A company based in Essex called

:05:45. > :05:53.the Private Ambulance Service is contracted to respond

:05:54. > :05:55.to emergencies during busy times. The company says the level

:05:56. > :05:58.of training of its staff exceeds Two thirds of asthma patients

:05:59. > :06:03.in the UK aren't receiving the basic care needed to manage

:06:04. > :06:04.their condition according They say that although the figures

:06:05. > :06:13.are slightly better than a year ago, almost 3.5 million people

:06:14. > :06:15.are still at risk. The charity has warned that this

:06:16. > :06:27.failing could "cost lives," Being on the right medication and

:06:28. > :06:32.knowing how to use it is vital if you have asthma. So too is having

:06:33. > :06:38.regular checkups and getting tailored advice on how to manage

:06:39. > :06:42.your condition. This year's annual asthma care survey shows most people

:06:43. > :06:48.with asthma are not receiving this basic care, that is around 3.6

:06:49. > :06:52.million people in the UK. In 2015 in the UK nearly one and a half

:06:53. > :06:57.thousand people died from asthma attacks. The highest level in a

:06:58. > :07:04.decade. According to Asthma UK, two in every three asthma deaths could

:07:05. > :07:10.be avoided with better care. Most patients think the care they receive

:07:11. > :07:16.is satisfactory or excellent, but few get the full package of basic

:07:17. > :07:19.care. NHS England says every asthma patient should be supported to

:07:20. > :07:26.manage their condition and offered regular reviews. And it is not just

:07:27. > :07:29.medical staff who need to do more, according to Asthma UK, who say

:07:30. > :07:30.people with asthma must take responsibility for their own care

:07:31. > :07:33.too. West Yorkshire Police have carried

:07:34. > :07:35.out further searches overnight after a man was shot

:07:36. > :07:38.and killed by officers Yassar Yaqub died on Monday evening

:07:39. > :07:42.after police in unmarked vehicles stopped a car just off

:07:43. > :07:45.the M62 in Huddersfield. Phil Bodmer is close

:07:46. > :07:51.to where the shooting happened. Phil, what is the latest

:07:52. > :08:06.in this investigation? Good morning, Louise. Yes, the slip

:08:07. > :08:10.road at Junction 24 on the M62 finally reopened before hours after

:08:11. > :08:17.it was closed on Monday night following the fatal shooting. The

:08:18. > :08:21.IPCC are investigating circumstances leading to that event. Yesterday the

:08:22. > :08:27.man who died was named as 28-year-old Yassar Yaqub, a father

:08:28. > :08:31.of two from Huddersfield. That is to the south-east of the town. Last

:08:32. > :08:36.night we understand there were a number of peaceful protest which

:08:37. > :08:40.were held in the Leeds Road and Wakefield Road areas of Bradford.

:08:41. > :08:44.Police were deployed to ensure the proteas were peaceful. Police say

:08:45. > :08:47.they understand tensions in some communities may be heightened as a

:08:48. > :08:52.result of what happened here on Monday night, but they say those

:08:53. > :08:56.protests passed off very peacefully. Meanwhile the Independent Police

:08:57. > :09:00.Complaints Commission commissioner Derek Campbell has issued a

:09:01. > :09:04.statement and he as my thoughts are with Yassar Yaqub's family and those

:09:05. > :09:08.affected at this difficult time. Although it is early stages of the

:09:09. > :09:13.investigation will be complex and they are appealing for patients from

:09:14. > :09:17.people within the local community. Today later we are expecting a

:09:18. > :09:22.postmortem into the victim and also five people still remain in custody

:09:23. > :09:25.in connection with what happened here on Monday night -- appealing

:09:26. > :09:26.for patience. The difference in what a woman

:09:27. > :09:30.in her 30s or 40s will earn compared to a man is still growing,

:09:31. > :09:32.according to new research. The Resolution Foundation study

:09:33. > :09:35.suggests that while the gender gap for people born since the millennium

:09:36. > :09:38.is narrowing, women will still earn significantly less then their male

:09:39. > :09:40.colleagues throughout their careers. It's being reported

:09:41. > :09:43.that the convicted mass murderer, Charles Manson, has

:09:44. > :09:46.been taken to hospital. Media reports say that

:09:47. > :09:49.Manson, who is in his 80s, has been moved to a hospital

:09:50. > :09:52.about an hour away from California's Corcoran State prison

:09:53. > :09:54.where he is being held. He's serving nine life terms

:09:55. > :09:57.for ordering a wave of killings An earthquake was detected 100 miles

:09:58. > :10:06.from Scarborough last night. The British Geological

:10:07. > :10:08.Survey says the tremor, which was in the North Sea,

:10:09. > :10:26.happened just before 7pm yesterday Wondering if anybody felt that.

:10:27. > :10:28.Yeah, if you felt it, let us know. Do.

:10:29. > :10:32.A couple who were forced to spend the night in the Scottish Cairngorms

:10:33. > :10:34.have spoken of their relief at being rescued.

:10:35. > :10:37.Robert and Cathy Elmer were reported missing on Sunday night

:10:38. > :10:39.and sheltered in a bivvy bag before rescuers reached them

:10:40. > :10:43.Yesterday, another man was saved from the mountain range,

:10:44. > :10:51.All right, have a look at this video.

:10:52. > :10:54.Heroes come in all shapes and sizes, including extra small

:10:55. > :10:59.This video captures the moment a chest of drawers falls onto two

:11:00. > :11:02.year old Brock Shoff just as he was playing in the bedroom.

:11:03. > :11:05.What follows is an impressive feat of cool-headed action and impressive

:11:06. > :11:08.strength from his twin brother, Bowdy, who rescues him.

:11:09. > :11:10.The boys parents have released the footage to highlight concerns

:11:11. > :11:14.over the safety of children and tall furniture.

:11:15. > :11:21.Oh my God. It is amazing and horrifying. It is two minutes long

:11:22. > :11:26.and it takes a while to work it out, but he does work out how to get his

:11:27. > :11:30.brother out of there. He tries to figure out how to lift it, and any

:11:31. > :11:34.figures out he can push it back. It is one of those, isn't it? That is

:11:35. > :11:40.why we gave you a warning, but amazing and terrible video at the

:11:41. > :11:43.same time. Look the furniture. -- look after the furniture.

:11:44. > :11:45.Janet Jackson's given birth to her first child.

:11:46. > :11:47.The younger sister of Michael Jackson, who is 50,

:11:48. > :11:51.She is said to have had a stress-free delivery.

:11:52. > :11:54.The singer stopped a world tour last April, telling her fans

:11:55. > :11:56.she was planning a family with her husband.

:11:57. > :12:11.I wonder if people told her about the "Be careful of furniture" rule.

:12:12. > :12:13.Apparently Arsenal were singing, "This is embarrassing" when they

:12:14. > :12:17.were losing. It all turned around. Arsenal staged a remarkable comeback

:12:18. > :12:20.from 3-0 down to draw 3-3 at Bournemouth in the

:12:21. > :12:22.Premier League last night. Olivier Giroud's stoppage-time goal

:12:23. > :12:26.completed the fightback. A 2-1 win at Crystal Palace moved

:12:27. > :12:31.Swansea City off the bottom of the table on the day

:12:32. > :12:34.they appointed Paul Clement Hull City are now bottom,

:12:35. > :12:38.and last night they parted company The 54-year-old was appointed

:12:39. > :12:44.full time in October. Sir Andy Murray has got his year

:12:45. > :12:47.off to a winning start. The world number one beat

:12:48. > :12:50.France's Jeremy Chardy in straight sets to reach the second

:12:51. > :13:00.round of the Qatar Open. You will notice, did anyone notice

:13:01. > :13:06.anything unusual about what I said at the start? Andy Murray. Not

:13:07. > :13:13.calling him sir. Why, 'cause...? He is... Totally! I am not so sure he

:13:14. > :13:20.is desperate to be called it yet. I think occasionally... If he is

:13:21. > :13:24.wearing a suit. OK, Sire Andy. He spoke about it, he said when at

:13:25. > :13:28.Wimbledon he doesn't want to be known as Sir Andy, because they

:13:29. > :13:33.might have to put on the scoreboard Sir Andy Murray. He is only 29.

:13:34. > :13:41.LAUGHTER I think that's great. Are you done? I am done. I think what I

:13:42. > :13:48.was doing is in the technical term "Filling in". Just walk in, it is

:13:49. > :13:52.fine. Oh, they you go. Very nice this morning, isn't it? What have

:13:53. > :13:56.you got? The front of the Daily Mail, talking about the NHS, they

:13:57. > :14:00.say hospital shouldn't collude with ambulance chasing lawyers and the

:14:01. > :14:03.head of the NHS has warned it yesterday. I rather like this

:14:04. > :14:12.photograph, Sir Paul McCartney... LAUGHTER Mellow on a day with his

:14:13. > :14:17.daughter. He has got out of the sea and put his towel around her. It is

:14:18. > :14:21.just really cute. I love that. Has it got you, that? It has got me this

:14:22. > :14:26.morning. Lots of talk about the Brexit story this morning, the front

:14:27. > :14:30.of the times, quitting over the Brexit, Sir Ivan Rogers, the main

:14:31. > :14:37.story on the Telegraph as well, Theresa May to pick Brexiteer in

:14:38. > :14:41.Brussels. At a first-time writer who spent 10 years putting together a

:14:42. > :14:45.book about her father's struggles with dementia and she has won a

:14:46. > :14:53.literary award. A real mixed bag, the papers today. The main story,

:14:54. > :14:59.lunchtime today they say FTSE bosses rake in ?28,200 each in 2017, so in

:15:00. > :15:03.just, what are we, the fourth day, the same an average worker will earn

:15:04. > :15:07.in a year. The front of the Sun talking about an engineer's dream of

:15:08. > :15:13.buying his ideal home in tatters after developers banned him from

:15:14. > :15:17.parking his work van. And after... Your top interviewed. Yes, all of

:15:18. > :15:21.the quotes inside the paper. I told you that was interesting. You know

:15:22. > :15:26.the main stories. How can I follow that?

:15:27. > :15:37.There is one main story for the business pages. You will note Mexico

:15:38. > :15:44.promised to move manufacturing, $1.6 billion factory in Mexico, it will

:15:45. > :15:47.no longer do that. Tax and regulatory reforms proposed by the

:15:48. > :15:53.President-elect led to its decision to invest instead $700 million in

:15:54. > :15:57.Michigan. If you read further down, you will realise those proposed

:15:58. > :16:03.changes included a 35% tax imposed on any cars that were built in

:16:04. > :16:06.Mexico, but brought back to the US. President-elect Donald Trump

:16:07. > :16:11.claiming that as a victory for his bring jobs home campaign. But

:16:12. > :16:14.nonetheless, not going down too well with some of the manufacturers who

:16:15. > :16:21.said it could cost them more. Very impressive. I am not afraid to ask

:16:22. > :16:27.for help. Help me. I am bringing you a story that is desperately sad. It

:16:28. > :16:30.is about Paul Gascoigne. Once hailed as a national hero, they are now

:16:31. > :16:39.calling his tour around the country, where he gives talks to audiences

:16:40. > :16:44.and it is called Victorian freak show. You can't argue with many of

:16:45. > :16:48.the things they say. It is really brutally honest. It is horrible

:16:49. > :16:52.because he was such a hero. He was such a great footballer. Yet we are

:16:53. > :16:58.sort of obsessed with his downward spiral. People keep putting a camera

:16:59. > :17:02.at him. We want to hear what he has to say, but he obviously does still

:17:03. > :17:06.face a terrible battle with alcoholism that he has spoken about

:17:07. > :17:11.at length. He still struggles with that gets it describes all of the

:17:12. > :17:15.time. On the other side, he needs to earn a living. What will he do? His

:17:16. > :17:23.stories are all he has now. It is sad. Thank you. We have talked about

:17:24. > :17:28.this man. He is an ultra marathon runner, and he ran across the Gobi

:17:29. > :17:33.desert. This little dog was adopted by him. He ran with him for miles

:17:34. > :17:38.and miles. Then he had to leave her behind. He has raised lots of money

:17:39. > :17:46.and she is now back with him in the UK. He just found her in the desert.

:17:47. > :17:52.She is called Gobi. I was distracted by Ben. This is the cutest picture

:17:53. > :17:58.in the papers. The new babies born in Bangkok dressed as chickens, as

:17:59. > :18:01.you can see. It is Chinese year of the Rooster, beginning later this

:18:02. > :18:05.month. I think all babies should be born like that. You definitely win a

:18:06. > :18:11.picture of the day. That is the cutest thing I have seen. After all

:18:12. > :18:18.of the bad news, this story. And Q. Dogs, babies. We were going to have

:18:19. > :18:20.Indiana Jones, but we will have that later. A little tease, Indiana Jones

:18:21. > :18:30.for you later. Aid shall be started the day for

:18:31. > :18:37.most of us but it will turn colder through the day. Fairly cloudy -- a

:18:38. > :18:42.cold start through the day. A fair bit of cloud and some drizzly

:18:43. > :18:49.conditions and patchy rain will stop cold air is feeding in. It will come

:18:50. > :18:55.further south to the course of the day. One or two pockets of frost in

:18:56. > :18:59.the south bursting. There is a bit more cloud around and patchy rain.

:19:00. > :19:04.We have drizzle here and there. Nothing too significant. Not as cold

:19:05. > :19:09.as it was this time yesterday. Six Celsius in London by the time we get

:19:10. > :19:15.to eight o'clock. As we travel further north, behind the weather

:19:16. > :19:19.front, a cold start. Frost around. The odd pocket of fog, but it should

:19:20. > :19:23.not be problematic. A lot of sunshine for the word go. Parts of

:19:24. > :19:28.Northern Ireland Singh sunshine. Where we have the weather front

:19:29. > :19:32.extending into parts of Northern Ireland into England and Wales, more

:19:33. > :19:37.cloud and drizzle. Into the south-west, a cloudy start through

:19:38. > :19:43.the day. The wind is a feature. Gusty winds blowing down the North

:19:44. > :19:47.Sea. Whipping up some big waves. As well, some showers coming onshore,

:19:48. > :19:53.especially in East Anglia. Some could be wintry. No heatwave in

:19:54. > :19:58.prospect. 1-5. If you are under the cloud in the weather front, 7-8. Not

:19:59. > :20:02.as God. As the weather front pushes down towards the south-west, look at

:20:03. > :20:13.the temperature dropping overnight -- cold. -20 -3 in towns, be in the

:20:14. > :20:22.countryside, -4 oh -6, and even lower locally -- -2 or monastery.

:20:23. > :20:28.Should not be too much of a problem. The air is dry. A fine day tomorrow

:20:29. > :20:32.for many areas with sunshine. These are the remnants of the weather

:20:33. > :20:36.front across south-west England and parts of the west of Northern

:20:37. > :20:40.Ireland to producing cloud and spots of rain. Later, another weather

:20:41. > :20:44.front will show its hand. Looking at the progress of that one, it comes

:20:45. > :20:49.in during Thursday into Friday. You can see how it pivots and brings

:20:50. > :20:54.rain southwards. Before it does, boasting on Friday morning, there

:20:55. > :20:58.will be fog around. Also some ice and frost. Here comes the rain

:20:59. > :21:02.during Friday pushing steadily southwards accompanied by gusty

:21:03. > :21:07.winds. Behind it, a return to showers, and ahead of a bright

:21:08. > :21:12.skies. It will not feel as cold unless you are in Norwich.

:21:13. > :21:16.Elsewhere, ten, 11 or the highest single figures. That leads us into a

:21:17. > :21:18.milder weekend as well. We really have some cold on the way. Thank you

:21:19. > :21:22.so much. See you shortly. You might have seen

:21:23. > :21:24.the Paralypian Anne Wafula when she said she was forced to wet

:21:25. > :21:30.herself in a wheelchair on a train because it didn't have

:21:31. > :21:37.a working disabled toilet. It is a really distressing story and

:21:38. > :21:41.she said two was robbed of her dignity.

:21:42. > :21:52.I was embarrassed, humiliated. I felt they had taken away my dignity.

:21:53. > :21:53.I was a nobody, I felt. I felt as though I did not exist.

:21:54. > :21:56.Well, since then the government has told BBC Breakfast

:21:57. > :21:59.that it is looking for better ways to enforce the Equalities Act.

:22:00. > :22:02.And later today, campaigners will call for more accesible

:22:03. > :22:04.facilIties such as a changing table and a hoist.

:22:05. > :22:08.At least a quarter of a million people in the UK need these,

:22:09. > :22:16.Our disability correspondent Nikki Fox has more.

:22:17. > :22:23.Spending a day at the shops is something so many of us do. But for

:22:24. > :22:26.Maria and Ryan, it is not a pleasurable experience. Ryan is

:22:27. > :22:30.autistic and needs a bathroom with the right amount of space and

:22:31. > :22:38.equipment to allow this man to tension. But there are not that many

:22:39. > :22:42.around. -- to change it. Would you put your mum or your sister on the

:22:43. > :22:46.floor to change them if they were still wearing nappies? Would you

:22:47. > :22:53.walk into a public toilet in your bare feet? Does that give you some

:22:54. > :22:57.sort of idea of what I have to do? It is this kind of problem that

:22:58. > :23:02.affects at least a quarter of a million people in the UK. This woman

:23:03. > :23:06.can look after her son at home because she has all of the kitchen

:23:07. > :23:12.aids. But it is a whole different matter when they leave the house. --

:23:13. > :23:17.kit she needs. It is hard to find a suitable public toilet. How does

:23:18. > :23:22.that impact you? Very hard. We can't go out for a full day. But there is

:23:23. > :23:27.an answer. A fully accessible bathroom like this. The bathroom of

:23:28. > :23:32.James. There are only 900 of these changes places across the UK. It is

:23:33. > :23:38.absolutely huge. It is the creme de la creme of bathrooms. When I came

:23:39. > :23:45.in here with Josh, my son, the first thing would be to bring the ceiling

:23:46. > :23:50.track Hoist over. Before it opened, dawn would have to change Josh on

:23:51. > :23:54.toilet floors. That is disgusting. You don't change people on the

:23:55. > :23:59.floor. My son obviously had been through chemo. He got a massive

:24:00. > :24:03.infection risk. At the end of this life for the last two years, he was

:24:04. > :24:08.severely oxygen dependent. Shortly before he died, Josh open this

:24:09. > :24:12.facility. It meant he could rest, which was really important for us,

:24:13. > :24:19.because it meant he could continue to go out and experience life. It

:24:20. > :24:23.has taken four years for Maria to secure the funding for a changing

:24:24. > :24:29.places toilet in her local shopping centre in Crawley. They are not

:24:30. > :24:33.cheap. Coming in at around ?18,000. There is currently no legal

:24:34. > :24:37.obligation to provide one. Councils say cuts to funding mean they have

:24:38. > :24:41.had to make tough choices about public facilities. But they are

:24:42. > :24:45.working with local businesses to try to tackle the problem. It is not

:24:46. > :24:50.much from outside at the moment, but this is where the changing place

:24:51. > :24:55.will be. They have every right to be able to toilet in the correct way.

:24:56. > :24:59.So to have this facility is giving them their basic humid rights of

:25:00. > :25:04.being able to go to the toilet in public. But safely, securely,

:25:05. > :25:11.hygienically, and dignified -- human rights. Towns and cities are

:25:12. > :25:14.beginning to take the changing places on, but there are still a

:25:15. > :25:16.substantial part of the population who can't do the things so many of

:25:17. > :25:22.us take for granted. Real difficulties the people. We

:25:23. > :25:26.will talk about it later. He's wowed vistors in London

:25:27. > :25:32.for more than a 100 years, but Dippy the dinosaur

:25:33. > :25:36.is set to roam again. You are in charge of saying

:25:37. > :25:43.diplodocus. Diplodocus. Breakfast's Tim Muffett

:25:44. > :25:52.is at the Natural History Musuem. We are going with diplodocus, we

:25:53. > :25:56.just are. If you have ever been to the Natural History Museum, a good

:25:57. > :26:03.chance you have stood here and wondered at Dippy the diplodocus. He

:26:04. > :26:08.first arrived in 1905. He has wowed more than 90 million visitors over

:26:09. > :26:17.that time, it is not. He is about to be dismantled. All 292 bones. A UK

:26:18. > :26:20.two-year tour awaits. It will be quite some undertaking. Taking apart

:26:21. > :26:26.the structure without damaging it. How will experts do that? We will be

:26:27. > :26:31.finding out a little later in finding out where this replica cast,

:26:32. > :26:35.because that is what it is, where it will be displayed. All of that

:26:36. > :29:53.coming up later. First, the news, travel and weather where

:29:59. > :30:06.Hello, this is Breakfast, with Louise Minchin and Dan Walker.

:30:07. > :30:13.Exactly 6:30am on Wednesday, January fourth.

:30:14. > :30:15.On Breakfast this morning: Would your partner support your

:30:16. > :30:18.new year resolution to cut down on alcohol?

:30:19. > :30:21.We'll discuss the findings of a survey that suggests men wouldn't.

:30:22. > :30:24.Also this morning: The gender pay gap is rising for women

:30:25. > :30:33.We'll be finding out what that means for the next generation.

:30:34. > :30:38.Mum, you've got a dry-cleaning label hanging out. You what? When was the

:30:39. > :30:40.last time yours was cleaned? The rude but not crude

:30:41. > :30:43.cop show, No Offence, Joanna Scanlon will tell us why home

:30:44. > :30:48.life takes a back seat when she plays the

:30:49. > :30:54.loud-mouth detective. All that still to come

:30:55. > :30:56.for you this morning. But now a summary of this

:30:57. > :30:58.morning's main news. Britain's outgoing ambassador

:30:59. > :31:01.to the EU, Sir Ivan Rogers, has strongly criticised

:31:02. > :31:03.the government's preparations for In his resignation letter,

:31:04. > :31:06.he urged his colleagues to continue to challenge what he called muddled

:31:07. > :31:08.thinking and ill-founded arguments. He added that ministers need to hear

:31:09. > :31:12.the "unvarnished" views from Europe And in about ten minutes we'll be

:31:13. > :31:17.speaking to the Shadow Secretary A cross party committee of MPs says

:31:18. > :31:26.that Brexit poses a significant threat to the UK environment

:31:27. > :31:29.and they are calling for new laws to ensure existing

:31:30. > :31:31.protections are not weakened. In their report, the Environmental

:31:32. > :31:33.Audit Committee says that farmers are also facing brexit concerns

:31:34. > :31:36.including loss of subsidies Here's our environment

:31:37. > :31:44.correspondent Matt McGrath. From the cleanliness of Britain's

:31:45. > :31:47.beaches to the protection of birds and habitats, much of the UK's

:31:48. > :31:49.environmental and wildlife legislation is rooted in EU

:31:50. > :31:56.directives and regulations. The government has said it

:31:57. > :31:59.will transfer many of these into UK law when Britain leaves the EU

:32:00. > :32:02.but recognises that about one third of the existing rules will be

:32:03. > :32:08.difficult to incorporate. To ensure there is no

:32:09. > :32:11.weakening of safeguards, the Environmental Audit Committee

:32:12. > :32:13.says a new Environmental Protection Act should be in place

:32:14. > :32:19.before Brexit is complete. European law protects huge amounts

:32:20. > :32:22.of the UK's environment, farming and countryside,

:32:23. > :32:29.and the process of leaving the EU presents a huge risk

:32:30. > :32:31.to all of those protections, which is why,

:32:32. > :32:34.in our report, we are calling for a new Environmental Protection Act

:32:35. > :32:37.so that when we leave the EU, we are no worse off protected

:32:38. > :32:41.than we are at the moment. The MPs say that Brexit also

:32:42. > :32:43.threatens British farmers, with the removal of EU subsidies,

:32:44. > :32:47.the possibility of tariffs on exports and greater competition

:32:48. > :32:49.from other countries. In response to the report,

:32:50. > :32:56.the government says the UK has a long history of wildlife

:32:57. > :32:58.and environmental protections and is committed to safeguarding

:32:59. > :33:01.and protecting these. Former drivers for a private

:33:02. > :33:04.ambulance firm that provides emergency cover for the NHS say

:33:08. > :33:12.the Private Ambulance Service is contracted to respond

:33:26. > :33:29.of them are not being given the care Asthma UK, which commissioned

:33:30. > :33:33.the research, says says that in 2015 1,500 people

:33:56. > :33:57.the M62 in Huddersfield. The Independent Police Complaints

:33:58. > :34:00.Commission is probing the discovery It's being reported

:34:01. > :34:13.that the convicted mass murderer, Charles Manson, has

:34:14. > :34:15.been taken to hospital. Media reports say that Manson,

:34:16. > :34:17.who is in his eighties, has been moved to a hospital

:34:18. > :34:21.about an hour away from the state He's serving nine life terms

:34:34. > :34:35.Survey says the tremor, which was in the North Sea,

:34:36. > :34:54.happened just before 7pm yesterday We asked if anybody felt it. As yet,

:34:55. > :34:57.Brexiteer, no. Just having a little chat and no one has said the earth

:34:58. > :34:59.move for them, or anything like that.

:35:00. > :35:02.Heroes come in all shapes and sizes, including extra small

:35:03. > :35:12.Before we show you, we need to tell you it is a moment when a chest of

:35:13. > :35:14.drawers falls onto a two -year-old child, but the child is OK - it is

:35:15. > :35:21.worth looking at the pictures. This video captures the moment

:35:22. > :35:24.a chest of drawers falls onto two-year-old Brock Shoff just

:35:25. > :35:27.as he was playing in the bedroom. What follows is an impressive feat

:35:28. > :35:37.of cool-headed action and impressive strength from his twin brother,

:35:38. > :35:39.Bowdy, who rescues him. The boys parents have released

:35:40. > :35:42.the footage to highlight concerns over the safety of children

:35:43. > :35:48.and tall furniture. And again, just to say, they both

:35:49. > :35:52.OK, it is so watchable and also un- watchable at the same time. The

:35:53. > :35:56.second wobble, when it was about to go back down. They are OK. And it is

:35:57. > :36:00.a serious thing, you need to make short... He was lucky his brother

:36:01. > :36:04.was there. That is why it they give you those things, a little tag at

:36:05. > :36:09.the back with a screw thread, so you can screw it in. To attach it to the

:36:10. > :36:14.wall. One of the reasons why. Oh, dear. Have you done that, though?

:36:15. > :36:20.Yeah. Oh, OK. You are a terrible mother. LAUGHTER I don't need you to

:36:21. > :36:25.tell me that. Shall I change the subject? Yes! A story of heroics

:36:26. > :36:28.from last night if you are an Arsenal fan. It was going well for

:36:29. > :36:31.Bournemouth, but everything changed. A remarkable comeback from Arsenal

:36:32. > :36:39.last night who scored three goals in the last 20 minutes to earn a 3-3

:36:40. > :36:42.draw at Bournemouth. Eddie Howe's

:36:43. > :36:44.side were in complete Ryan Fraser scoring their third goal

:36:45. > :36:48.but Arsenal fought back and a stoppage-time header

:36:49. > :36:50.from Olivier Giroud Maybe they should have gone for a

:36:51. > :37:02.fourth. When you're 3-0 down you have as

:37:03. > :37:08.well to acknowledge the quality of your team in order to come back to

:37:09. > :37:13.3-3, but not everybody can do that, so... Mixed feelings tonight, but

:37:14. > :37:14.you have as well to recognise that my team showed great mental

:37:15. > :37:17.strength. A 2-1 win at Crystal Palace moved

:37:18. > :37:20.Swansea City off the bottom of the Premier League table

:37:21. > :37:23.on the day they appointment Paul Clement as their

:37:24. > :37:25.new head coach. The former Derby boss watched

:37:26. > :37:28.from the dug-out in the second half as Swansea won their first

:37:29. > :37:31.game in nearly a month. Angel Rangel scored the winner two

:37:32. > :37:34.minutes from time to lift the Swans Stoke City ended a run of five games

:37:35. > :37:53.without a win by beating Watford 2-0, their goals coming

:37:54. > :37:55.from Ryan Shawcross Mike Phelan last night became

:37:56. > :37:58.the latest Premier League manager to be sacked with his Hull City side

:37:59. > :38:02.bottom of the Premier League. Phelan replaced Steve Bruce

:38:03. > :38:04.on a temporary basis before the start of the season and was

:38:05. > :38:07.appointed permanently in October. Despite winning their opening two

:38:08. > :38:10.league games, Hull have won just once since, prompting a change

:38:11. > :38:13.at the KCom Stadium. World number one Sir Andy Murray has

:38:14. > :38:16.got 2017 off to a winning start - six words I never

:38:17. > :38:19.thought I would say - after reaching the second

:38:20. > :38:22.round of the Qatar Open. The two-time champion in Doha

:38:23. > :38:23.comfortably dispatched France's Jeremy Chardy

:38:24. > :38:25.in straight sets. He'll play Austrian Gerald

:38:26. > :38:27.Melzer in Round Two. Former world and Super League

:38:54. > :39:00.a suspension after being sent off His six week ban will end before

:39:01. > :39:08.England play France early next Will, Dylan is doing everything

:39:09. > :39:12.right to become captain at the moment. He came to the camps, he has

:39:13. > :39:17.worked hard. A pre- requisite to get to the England side is to be very

:39:18. > :39:22.fit. And not playing games, it means he has got to go and and

:39:23. > :39:26.unbelievably stringent fitness program over the next five or six

:39:27. > :39:29.weeks, and he is doing that, so he is putting himself in the best

:39:30. > :39:30.position to continue as captain. Ready for a little bit of

:39:31. > :39:33.understatement? GB Taekwondo say they have

:39:34. > :39:35.reservations about double Olympic champion Jade Jones taking part

:39:36. > :39:40.in the Channel 4 programme The Jump. You can understand why, though,

:39:41. > :39:43.can't you? ..following serious injuries to some

:39:44. > :39:46.competitors on last year's show. Jones, who receives funding from UK

:39:47. > :39:49.Sport, has been spoken to about the risks involved

:39:50. > :39:52.in the programme, which teaches Cyclist Sir Bradley Wiggins

:39:53. > :39:59.and Paralympian Kadeena Cox are among the figures

:40:00. > :40:07.from sport also taking part. It's interesting, isn't it, because

:40:08. > :40:11.over the years more and more sports people seem to be wanting to get

:40:12. > :40:15.involved with the program as well, haven't they? You have to be tough

:40:16. > :40:19.to do that show, because the training is immense. Very, very

:40:20. > :40:24.competitive. And with a massive insurers premium! Yes, yes. 6:40am

:40:25. > :40:25.exactly. The man who was supposed to be a key

:40:26. > :40:29.figure in the negotiations for getting Britain out of Europe

:40:30. > :40:33.has not only resigned from his job, but he's also written a letter,

:40:34. > :40:36.strongly criticising the way the government is

:40:37. > :40:37.preparing for Brexit. The UK's outgoing ambassador

:40:38. > :40:40.to the EU, Sir Ivan Rogers, unexpectedly quit early and has

:40:41. > :40:42.urged his colleagues Joining us now from Westminster

:40:43. > :40:53.is Barry Gardiner, Shadow Secretary Good morning to you, thank you for

:40:54. > :40:59.your time this morning on Breakfast. Now, Sir Ivan has made way, one

:41:00. > :41:04.person in place for the Brexit process, it seems a sensible option,

:41:05. > :41:08.doesn't it? Well, look I think government policy appears to be to

:41:09. > :41:15.shout down anybody who tells some things that they don't want to hear.

:41:16. > :41:20.I regret that. I think often when you shoot the messenger you end up

:41:21. > :41:23.shooting yourself in the foot. I think that the government needs to

:41:24. > :41:28.be careful now in ensuring that we have the experience that is required

:41:29. > :41:33.in order to conduct successful negotiations. One can't simply

:41:34. > :41:39.surround oneself with people who tell you what you want to hear. You

:41:40. > :41:42.have to know what the reality is of the other side of the negotiations,

:41:43. > :41:47.take that on-board and then negotiate the toughest and best deal

:41:48. > :41:53.for the UK. I understand what you're saying, but he has appeared to have

:41:54. > :41:57.criticised the PM's trade position, so don't you need someone who stands

:41:58. > :42:02.with the government on this? It is OK to say, this is the point of

:42:03. > :42:06.view, but it is an important negotiation, but they have to sing

:42:07. > :42:12.from the same sheet? Look, in any negotiation it is important that,

:42:13. > :42:19.you're quite right, people are united in achieving the best result

:42:20. > :42:23.for the country, but Sir Ivan is a man who has been private secretary

:42:24. > :42:31.to the Prime Minister, to the Chancellor, he has been the head of

:42:32. > :42:37.public affairs at Barclays, Citibank, he was head of tax at the

:42:38. > :42:42.Treasury, this is an extremely distinguished civil servant that we

:42:43. > :42:46.are talking about, and somebody who knew the European Union particularly

:42:47. > :42:51.well. He had actually been chef to cabernet to the vice president of

:42:52. > :42:55.the European Union. When he says, look, this is what these people are

:42:56. > :43:02.thinking, this is what these people are trying to do, it you take that

:43:03. > :43:08.as intelligence that you need to factor into your own negotiating

:43:09. > :43:12.position. And it really is, I think, very dangerous for the government

:43:13. > :43:16.simply to rubbish people like that. They should listen carefully, they

:43:17. > :43:22.should take on board. And what we now need is to ensure that whoever

:43:23. > :43:24.it is that replaces Sir Ivan is someone with an equally

:43:25. > :43:32.distinguished record of public service. I hate seeing the civil

:43:33. > :43:38.service either politicised or turned into "Yes people", I think we need

:43:39. > :43:45.someone with a distinguished record, as Sir Ivan had, and someone who

:43:46. > :43:49.really has that fundamental grasp of how our partners in this negotiation

:43:50. > :43:55.from Europe are going to be thinking. We need the best deal for

:43:56. > :43:59.the UK. OK, can I ask you one more because you mentioned the civil

:44:00. > :44:02.service, and the former UKIP Leader, I am sure you know, Nigel Farage,

:44:03. > :44:06.says the Foreign Office needs a clearer because, from his point of

:44:07. > :44:09.view, there are too many Remain supporters making the job more

:44:17. > :44:21.their private views might be, act in the best interests of the public and

:44:22. > :44:28.in accordance with government policy. We have for many years in

:44:29. > :44:35.this country had a civil service that operates in -- impartially and

:44:36. > :44:40.irrespective of their own private views. To try and politicised the

:44:41. > :44:48.civil service is really scandalous. It is the sort of refuge of a

:44:49. > :44:52.scoundrel. What we need to do is recognise and respect the experience

:44:53. > :44:56.that our civil servants have, to take note of it and to ensure that

:44:57. > :45:01.we then I able to negotiate a deal that is going to make us more

:45:02. > :45:05.prosperous in this country outside of the EU. There is no point in us

:45:06. > :45:10.ending up going through these negotiations ignoring everybody who

:45:11. > :45:14.says it may be difficult, it may take time, and then finding that,

:45:15. > :45:19."Oh, well, we might be poorer, we might be out of work, but actually

:45:20. > :45:24.at least we are in charge of our demise," that is not what we want

:45:25. > :45:28.and not what anyone who voted to leave the EU wants. We must be more

:45:29. > :45:32.prosperous at the end of this, not poorer. Thank you for your time on

:45:33. > :45:42.Breakfast is morning. It is good to talk to you.

:45:43. > :45:52.I am getting the time it right this year, that is my new Year's

:45:53. > :45:58.resolution. Let's talk to Carol. It will be sunny today, eventually, and

:45:59. > :46:01.frosty tonight. A widespread frost. We have this weather front sinking

:46:02. > :46:08.southwards and taking more cloud and patchy rain with it. A cold feed is

:46:09. > :46:12.coming in behind. The wind will come from a northerly direction through

:46:13. > :46:16.the day. This front continues to drift south and cold air will follow

:46:17. > :46:22.behind it. First thing this morning, a lot of cloud. Some pockets of

:46:23. > :46:29.frost in Dorset and Hampshire. By no means widespread. The cloud is

:46:30. > :46:33.producing the odd spot of patchy rain or drizzle. Into northern

:46:34. > :46:41.England, cloud around but also clear skies. It is a cold start across

:46:42. > :46:44.parts of Scotland with frost. Wintry showers across Shetland and

:46:45. > :46:48.Aberdeenshire. Across Northern Ireland, the south Seas more cloud.

:46:49. > :46:51.Cold with clearer skies in the north-east. That is where we have

:46:52. > :46:56.the weather front draped across Wales and into the Midlands. A lot

:46:57. > :47:00.of cloud with patchy rain. Into the south-west, a cloudy start for you

:47:01. > :47:05.as well. The other thing you will notice is the keen wind coming down

:47:06. > :47:11.the North Sea coastline. That will whip up big waves and Bush showers

:47:12. > :47:19.in across part of the coastline, especially through North Norfolk.

:47:20. > :47:22.Sunshine will follow behind with temperatures of five at best in the

:47:23. > :47:26.sunshine. Where we have bigger cloud towards the west, seven or eight.

:47:27. > :47:30.Under clear skies by evening, temperatures shootdown, represented

:47:31. > :47:36.by the blues in towns and cities. -2, but in the countryside, even

:47:37. > :47:41.lower. Possibly even minus seven. Widespread frost to start the day

:47:42. > :47:45.tomorrow. Some patchy fog is possible. Tomorrow promises to be a

:47:46. > :47:49.fine day with a fair bit of sunshine. There will be bits of

:47:50. > :47:52.cloud floating around, and the remnants of the weather front

:47:53. > :47:55.affecting parts of south-east England, the west of Northern

:47:56. > :47:59.Ireland, and splashes of rain. Later, we see this next system

:48:00. > :48:03.introducing more wet and windy weather. The weather front coming

:48:04. > :48:10.from the north and pivoting around and pushing southwards. Before that

:48:11. > :48:14.happens, it will be a cult start on Friday morning with frost. We are

:48:15. > :48:16.more likely to see fog patches as well. The front starts to push

:48:17. > :48:20.steadily southwards accompanied by blustery winds. Behind it, still

:48:21. > :48:25.some showers and a wee bit of brightness. But unless you are in

:48:26. > :48:30.Norwich, it will feel much milder then it will in the next couple of

:48:31. > :48:36.days. Thank you. A bitter bid cold on the way. Good to know. We need a

:48:37. > :48:39.bit of information from Carol. Men and women earn roughly the same

:48:40. > :48:42.when they're in their 20s, but men are still earning more

:48:43. > :48:54.in their 30s and 40s. Good morning. Yesterday we spoke

:48:55. > :48:56.about women's products costing more than men when it came to things like

:48:57. > :49:01.toiletries. Today is about pay. The Resolution Foundation has been

:49:02. > :49:04.looking at average pay for men And they say the gender

:49:05. > :49:08.pay gap is closing, For the baby boomers,

:49:09. > :49:14.working in the '60s and '70s, men earned substantially more

:49:15. > :49:17.than women for doing the same job. In the '80s, or Generation X,

:49:18. > :49:22.that gap has narrowed to 9%. those in their 20s will find

:49:23. > :49:30.the pay gap still exists - but it's at its lowest

:49:31. > :49:35.ever level, just 5%. Laura Gardiner is

:49:36. > :49:51.Senior Policy Analyst Good morning. As we highlighted,

:49:52. > :49:56.there has been some progress. That gap is narrowing. We are still not

:49:57. > :50:00.equal pay, though? As you highlighted, the progress in the

:50:01. > :50:05.early stage of careers, when people are in their 20s, it is something we

:50:06. > :50:09.should celebrate. For millennial is, the gender pay gap is mist half

:50:10. > :50:15.compared to the generation who came before. There is still a pay gap and

:50:16. > :50:20.we need to think about why that is, but one thing we might highlight is

:50:21. > :50:24.that although more women are graduating with degrees than men,

:50:25. > :50:28.there is still a significant pay gap between male and female graduates.

:50:29. > :50:31.It has not shifted that much over time. Really good progress in the

:50:32. > :50:37.early stage of careers, but still more to understand and more to do to

:50:38. > :50:41.really eradicate that gap. Is there an element of legacy problems? You

:50:42. > :50:46.can see why people in their 40s up to 60s, they are earning different

:50:47. > :50:50.amounts. But for people sitting out today doing an identical job,

:50:51. > :50:56.whether they are a man or woman, why are they not pay the same? The

:50:57. > :51:00.gender pay gap does not just measure identical jobs. Includes the fact

:51:01. > :51:05.that men and women do different jobs at different stages of careers, a

:51:06. > :51:09.mix between equal pay, different choices and constrain choices. You

:51:10. > :51:14.talk about the 40s, 50s and 60s, but although we are celebrating the

:51:15. > :51:26.closing of the gender pay gap, the generation born since 1980, it

:51:27. > :51:30.suggest the old challenges around when women start to have children

:51:31. > :51:33.really enjoyed the young women today to the extent that they can expect a

:51:34. > :51:41.significant lifetime earnings penalty compared to them our

:51:42. > :51:45.counterparts. Those other problems. But what can businesses do to get

:51:46. > :51:51.rid of the gap? We should recognise the great progress we have made down

:51:52. > :51:55.to changes in government policy on things like maternity pay. The

:51:56. > :52:00.really big challenges remain around when women have children, and that

:52:01. > :52:04.is what will hit hard for the millennial generation. We need to

:52:05. > :52:08.think about the penalties associated with part-time working, which is all

:52:09. > :52:13.too often a choice made by women due to things like high childcare costs.

:52:14. > :52:18.They might start on the salary that is the same as men, but progression

:52:19. > :52:22.and promotion is hard to come by. We need to change that in business. So

:52:23. > :52:26.that business and employee response, is there is social response to this

:52:27. > :52:30.as well, but maybe more men should consider taking the burden of

:52:31. > :52:34.childcare more so it is not just the onus on the women to take time off

:52:35. > :52:40.work and not be working and therefore suffered that gap later in

:52:41. > :52:43.life? Each family makes its own choices and no business or

:52:44. > :52:48.government to get in the way of that. But nearly half of women would

:52:49. > :52:53.be up for sharing their parental leave with their partner, and

:52:54. > :52:56.legislation was brought in last year so that could happen. But the

:52:57. > :53:00.take-up has been small. Obviously it will take time. But there is more

:53:01. > :53:04.appetite among both men and women for a more equal sharing of

:53:05. > :53:09.child-rearing responsibilities. We have some policy change in place,

:53:10. > :53:14.but progress is still to be made to embed that and increase parental

:53:15. > :53:18.leave in particular. Thank you for explaining all of that. That is all

:53:19. > :53:24.from me for now. After seven o'clock, I will have the Christmas

:53:25. > :53:26.figures. Thank you. It is interesting to get the nitty-gritty

:53:27. > :53:27.of that. Dinosaurs haven't roamed the earth

:53:28. > :53:30.for around 65 million years, but one by the name of Dippy

:53:31. > :53:33.is about to embark on something He will travel around

:53:34. > :53:37.museums across the country, but first, there's the small

:53:38. > :53:39.matter of dismantling him. Breakfast's Tim Muffett

:53:40. > :53:49.is with him now. Good morning. I remember this so

:53:50. > :53:53.well from a childhood. If you have ever been to the Natural History

:53:54. > :53:57.Museum in London, and more than 5 million people every year do that,

:53:58. > :54:03.there is a good chance you have stood where I'm standing now and

:54:04. > :54:08.looked up at Dippy the diplodocus. He or she, nobody really knows,

:54:09. > :54:15.arrived in 1905, and has been on display in this, this hall, in the

:54:16. > :54:20.museum since 1979. But today is the last date you will be able to see

:54:21. > :54:26.Dippy in this spot. The dismantling process is about to get under way

:54:27. > :54:30.before a UK tour, which will last for two years. Before we find out

:54:31. > :54:34.how they will take Dippy down, here are a few facts and figures

:54:35. > :54:37.delivered by some visitors to the museum.

:54:38. > :54:45.# everybody everybody walked the dinosaur

:54:46. > :54:56.# Opened the door, get on the floor...

:54:57. > :55:00.# Dippy is made up of 292 bones. Dippy is a plaster cast replica of a

:55:01. > :55:07.skeleton found in Wyoming in the USA in 1988. Dippy has been viewed by

:55:08. > :55:11.more than 90 million visitors. Dippy will be going on a two-year tour

:55:12. > :55:15.around the UK and will be replaced here by the skeleton of a blue

:55:16. > :55:21.while. We are a little sad because Dippy sort of feels like an old

:55:22. > :55:29.friend, part of the family. # I walked a dinosaur #.

:55:30. > :55:33.It gives people an opportunity to see an amazing dinosaur that perhaps

:55:34. > :55:37.they would not be able to see at all. # open the door, get on the

:55:38. > :55:39.floor # Everybody walked the dinosaur...

:55:40. > :55:48.#. Lorraine is the head of conservation

:55:49. > :55:53.at the museum. You have the huge task of taking Dippy apart and

:55:54. > :55:57.taking Dippy around the UK. Where do you begin? We start taking no Mike

:55:58. > :56:01.Dunn first removing this glass barrier. Then we come in with a

:56:02. > :56:06.whole load of scaffolding. We need to get all over the skeleton, over

:56:07. > :56:10.292 individual pieces. We are starting at the tail end and will

:56:11. > :56:16.remove the towel. We will, with the head end. -- tail. It is like a

:56:17. > :56:23.string of pearls. We will start to and read them. Then we will come

:56:24. > :56:27.into the middle section where we have these large legs and feet and

:56:28. > :56:31.all of the rib cage, and some of these plaster of Paris beats weigh a

:56:32. > :56:36.lot, so we have the scaffolding to help us. Each one will come down and

:56:37. > :56:40.will photograph is a noted condition, and then we will

:56:41. > :56:44.carefully label it. The UK tour gets under way and the dates and places

:56:45. > :56:50.of that tour should be on the screen now. Why have you chosen the various

:56:51. > :56:55.places, and how hard will be to put Dippy together again in all of those

:56:56. > :57:00.places. All of those pieces have a compelling story. Dippy will be free

:57:01. > :57:04.at the point of entry and each place is excited to have nomad. We will do

:57:05. > :57:08.a whole series of events reaching millions of people. Schools, adults,

:57:09. > :57:12.different groups. We are really excited about that. We have chosen

:57:13. > :57:16.eight venues and there will really be great in terms of Dippy being an

:57:17. > :57:23.ambassador for nature and natural history. That'll be great. We have a

:57:24. > :57:31.three-year tour essentially starting. It will be a blue while

:57:32. > :57:35.replacing Dippy in this main hall of the Natural History Museum. What an

:57:36. > :57:41.undertaking, to take that apart. -- blue while. It is like flatpack

:57:42. > :57:47.times a million. Good luck. Thank you. Thank you for joining the

:03:44. > :03:47.Sir Ivan Rogers has been Britain's ambassador to the EU for three

:03:48. > :03:49.years, and his criticisms about the Government's preparations

:03:50. > :04:02.In his resignation e-mail, he says there is a short supply of:

:04:03. > :04:10.He reveals that even he does not know what the Government's

:04:11. > :04:13.negotiating objectives for Brexit will be.

:04:14. > :04:16.But it is Sir Ivan's implicit and thinly veiled criticism

:04:33. > :04:34.when they have to deliver messages that are disagreeable to those

:04:35. > :04:41.So, Sir Ivan's charge is a serious one -

:04:45. > :04:50.Our political correspondent Iain Watson joins us from

:04:51. > :05:06.How difficult position does this put the government in? A very difficult

:05:07. > :05:11.one. Diplomats are expected to be diplomatic, that should be a key

:05:12. > :05:15.part of that to -- job description. The resignation letter from Sir Ivan

:05:16. > :05:21.Rogers was far from diplomatic and it gives the government difficulties

:05:22. > :05:26.on several fronts. Firstly, how do they replace him? The process still

:05:27. > :05:33.isn't clear. A timetable for the replacement are still isn't clear at

:05:34. > :05:38.the clock is ticking. To reason they will be pressing that button to

:05:39. > :05:45.start the process of leaving the EU in just a few months' time.

:05:46. > :05:52.Secondly, Sir Ivan was, from the backroom, thrust into the limelight

:05:53. > :05:57.in a way he clearly didn't like. I think anyone else wanted to take

:05:58. > :06:01.that role will be under no illusion that their position will be

:06:02. > :06:06.scrutinised like never before. Let me dissuade some well-qualified

:06:07. > :06:13.candidates. The third in years, the key passage which you mentioned in

:06:14. > :06:23.this resignation letter which is of course the person meant to represent

:06:24. > :06:26.us, this most senior figure, is saying that the big picture, not the

:06:27. > :06:31.detail, the big picture, still hasn't been settled. He doesn't know

:06:32. > :06:35.what the government's strategy will be and his replacement will have to

:06:36. > :06:38.find out pretty quickly and the government will be delighted that

:06:39. > :06:43.this resignation letter if it was going to come at all, at least came

:11:15. > :11:18.Christmas sale was done by 7% is a bit worried that it has had to cut

:11:19. > :11:23.prices to get people to buy stuff and still the sales are down by 7%.

:11:24. > :11:27.For the year as a whole, you expect profits to come in at about 4% lower

:11:35. > :11:38.that starting to filter through to our pockets. It is worried we will

:11:39. > :11:43.have less money to spend so sales will suffer and it also thinks that

:11:44. > :11:46.prices will start going up because of the weak pound. A lot of stuff

:11:47. > :11:53.from overseas. It thinks prices could go up by about 5%. Not a great

:13:21. > :13:26.In his resignation letter he urged colleagues from Brussels to

:13:27. > :13:31.challenge muddled thinking and in -- and ill founded arguments. Joining

:13:32. > :13:37.us from Westminster is Anne-Marie Trevelyan who sported Brexit. I am

:13:38. > :13:42.sure you have seen Nick Clegg are saying this is a body blow to the

:13:43. > :13:45.government. How do you see it? I was able to read to the resignation

:13:46. > :13:50.letter overnight. I think he makes it clear that as he was planning to

:13:51. > :13:54.retire in October of this year and his number two Sean Morgan was

:13:55. > :13:58.planning to go to the Welsh government civil service he felt,

:13:59. > :14:02.and I agree with him, that we should have a full team that will take us

:14:03. > :14:06.through the whole two-year Brexit negotiation process and he feels it

:14:07. > :14:10.is right to step off now that the Prime Minister can get a team in

:14:11. > :14:14.place it will take us right through. I understand why you are trying to

:14:15. > :14:17.deflect attention from what he said in a letter because some of it is

:14:18. > :14:23.pretty harsh, talking about model inking, basically saying there is no

:14:24. > :14:27.preparation -- muddled thinking. That is a stark warning, isn't it? I

:14:28. > :14:33.agree with him in part. Someone who was active on the Brexit side right

:14:34. > :14:36.up until June or back in February when Sir Ivan was tried to negotiate

:14:37. > :14:40.a deal with David Cameron so that those of us on the Brexit side might

:14:41. > :14:43.be persuaded that leaving the EU completely wasn't necessary because

:14:44. > :14:48.the EU understood that Britain needed a very different

:14:49. > :14:51.relationship. There was no discussion or success in the

:14:52. > :14:55.negotiation which is why so many people across Britain voted to

:14:56. > :14:58.leave. The reality was that throughout that time there was no

:14:59. > :15:03.activity in Whitehall to really try and prepare for what was bluntly a

:15:04. > :15:07.50-50 chance of the British people voting out. When Theresa May came in

:15:08. > :15:10.as Prime Minister in the summer, there had been very little thinking

:15:11. > :15:15.in Whitehall about Brexit. That is true. He is right. Prime Minister to

:15:16. > :15:21.reason they have spent the summer making sure that Whitehall turned

:15:22. > :15:25.itself around -- Theresa May, and looking at in detail what Brexit

:15:26. > :15:29.means that each new department. She has created three new department

:15:30. > :15:33.ready to go forward as Article 50 is triggered in the next couple of

:15:34. > :15:36.months. Is a Sir Ivan Rogers what he says that the people in government

:15:37. > :15:44.don't like to hear the difficult truths about Brexit? It is not how I

:15:45. > :15:51.would say it. Civil servants have an important play -- part to play to

:15:52. > :15:57.set out their views and experience on how certain policy issues might

:15:58. > :16:01.be driven forward. It is then politicians who need to take that

:16:02. > :16:06.forward. It is what the Prime Minister is doing, she has pulled

:16:07. > :16:10.together some amazing people from externally, the civil service, Sir

:16:11. > :16:14.Ivan had spent time working in a bank so he had external experience.

:16:15. > :16:18.We have people who are going to bring enormous different talents to

:16:19. > :16:23.the table as we move forward into the detailed negotiations after we

:16:24. > :16:28.trigger Article 50. He is a big loss, isn't he? He is an experienced

:16:29. > :16:31.diplomat and knows everybody. He knows the corridors of power. His

:16:32. > :16:36.knowledge and experience will be missed. As with any civil servant

:16:37. > :16:40.who has been working for our great nation for any length of time decide

:16:41. > :16:46.they want to step off the treadmill and take up perhaps private sector

:16:47. > :16:50.or retirement, we don't know but the reality is we have an amazing team.

:16:51. > :16:53.It is world-renowned, our diplomatic corps and those who work within the

:16:54. > :16:59.Treasury and other departments. I have no doubt the Prime Minister has

:17:00. > :17:03.a group of people she can choose from who will be part of the process

:17:04. > :17:06.all the way through the next couple of years as we get to the point of

:17:07. > :17:17.actually reaching Brexit. Thank you for talking to us. It is

:17:18. > :17:21.looking frosty this morning. Especially this coming night, it

:17:22. > :17:25.will be very frosty. Most of us will see a frost away from the coasts.

:17:26. > :17:29.Today it will be signing for most. We have a weather front moving

:17:30. > :17:34.steadily southwards and heading in the direction of the south-west. It

:17:35. > :17:39.is bringing a fair bit of cloud and some patchy rain and drizzle. Behind

:17:40. > :17:45.it, we have colder air feeding in and also quite a strong wind coming

:17:46. > :17:52.from the north. Down the North Sea coastline. Across southern counties

:17:53. > :17:57.this morning, a lot of cloud around. In Dorset, some holes in the cloud.

:17:58. > :18:01.The generally not as cold as it was this time yesterday. You can see the

:18:02. > :18:04.front producing the cloud and odd spot of drizzle. Into northern

:18:05. > :18:09.England and most of Scotland, back under clear skies, it is a cold and

:18:10. > :18:13.frosty start with wintry showers in Shetland and Aberdeenshire. The

:18:14. > :18:17.north-eastern parts of Northern Ireland, some sunshine. But the rest

:18:18. > :18:21.of Northern Ireland heading into Wales and the Midlands, that is

:18:22. > :18:24.where we have the weather front. More cloud and patchy rain or

:18:25. > :18:30.drizzle. South-west England, variable amounts of cloud with

:18:31. > :18:34.brighter skies. As the front pushes towards the south-west, it will

:18:35. > :18:41.brighten behind it and toad caught behind it with patchy rain going

:18:42. > :18:44.without fun. There is a keen wind, so if you're walking along the

:18:45. > :18:50.shore, it will be cold. Some large waves and under the cloud in the

:18:51. > :18:54.south, not as cold. Tonight under clear skies, look at the blue hue in

:18:55. > :18:59.the charts. It will turn cold quickly. There will be a widespread

:19:00. > :19:04.frost. Temperatures in towns and cities offering around freezing or

:19:05. > :19:07.blow away from the coast. In a countryside, much lower, minus six

:19:08. > :19:12.degrees. Locally, minus seven degrees. A widespread frost. There

:19:13. > :19:18.may be isolated pockets of fog, which will be freezing. Tomorrow,

:19:19. > :19:23.not a bad day for most. Breezy Danny North Sea coastline, but nothing

:19:24. > :19:27.like today. A lot of sunshine. Out towards the west, we see the signs

:19:28. > :19:31.of our next weather front coming in and introducing wet and windy

:19:32. > :19:35.weather. That is courtesy of the weather front pushing down towards

:19:36. > :19:41.the south. Before it does, it will be frosty, and we will also see more

:19:42. > :19:47.fog. Here comes the rain. Blustery around it, right behind it, but with

:19:48. > :19:51.a few showers. Unless you are in Norwich, it'll be a mild day, and

:19:52. > :19:57.that will lead us into mild weekend as well. I know you wanted to know

:19:58. > :20:03.about the weekend, and it will be mild. Excellent news. I will remove

:20:04. > :20:06.a layer at the weekend. Before then, the icy blue hue. Thank you.

:20:07. > :20:09.The government has told BBC Breakfast that it's looking

:20:10. > :20:11.at better ways to ensure there are more disabled toilets available.

:20:12. > :20:13.It's after Paralympian Anne Wafula Strike

:20:14. > :20:16.revealed she wet herself in a wheelchair because her train

:20:17. > :20:19.didn't have a working disabled toilet.

:20:20. > :20:23.Later today, campaigners are calling for better changing

:20:24. > :20:26.facililities for the quarter of a million people in the UK

:20:27. > :20:28.Our disability correspondent Nikki Fox has more.

:20:29. > :20:32.Spending a day at the shops is something so many of us do.

:20:33. > :20:35.But for Maria and Ryan, it is not a pleasurable experience.

:20:36. > :20:42.Ryan is autistic, and needs a bathroom with the right amount

:20:43. > :20:45.of space and equipment to allow his mum to change him.

:20:46. > :20:51.Would you be prepared to put your mum or your sister

:20:52. > :20:54.on the floor to change them if they were still wearing nappies?

:20:55. > :20:59.Would you walk into a public toilet in your bare feet?

:21:00. > :21:03.Does that give you some sort of idea of what I have to do?

:21:04. > :21:07.It is this kind of problem that affects at least a quarter

:21:08. > :21:17.This woman can look after her son, Adam, at home, because she has

:21:18. > :21:28.But it is a whole different matter when they leave the house.

:21:29. > :21:31.It is 1.5 hours' round trip to find a suitable public toilet.

:21:32. > :21:36.We can't go out for a full day in Bury.

:21:37. > :21:39.A fully accessible bathroom like this.

:21:40. > :21:44.There are only 900 of these changing places across the UK.

:21:45. > :21:47.It is the creme de la creme of bathrooms.

:21:48. > :21:51.When I came in here with Josh, my son, when he was alive,

:21:52. > :21:57.the first thing would be to bring the ceiling track hoist over.

:21:58. > :22:00.But before it opened, Dawn would have to change Josh

:22:01. > :22:04.You don't change people on the floor.

:22:05. > :22:05.My son obviously had been through chemo.

:22:06. > :22:11.At the end of this life, for the last two years,

:22:12. > :22:19.Shortly before he died, Josh opened this facility.

:22:20. > :22:22.It meant he could rest his spine, which was really important for us,

:22:23. > :22:27.because it meant he could continue to go out and experience life.

:22:28. > :22:33.It has taken four years for Maria to secure the funding for a changing

:22:34. > :22:36.places toilet in her local shopping centre in Crawley.

:22:37. > :22:38.They are not cheap, coming in at around ?18,000.

:22:39. > :22:42.There is currently no legal obligation to provide one.

:22:43. > :22:46.Councils say cuts to funding mean they have had to make tough choices

:22:47. > :22:49.But they are working with local businesses

:22:50. > :22:58.It is not looking much from outside at the moment,

:22:59. > :23:01.but this is where the Crawley changing place will be.

:23:02. > :23:05.They have every right to be able to toilet in the correct way.

:23:06. > :23:08.So to have this facility is giving them their basic human rights

:23:09. > :23:11.of being able to go to the toilet in public, but safely,

:23:12. > :23:18.securely, hygienically, and dignified.

:23:19. > :23:22.There is no easy route to getting a changing places toilet.

:23:23. > :23:25.Towns and cities are beginning to take the changing places on,

:23:26. > :23:29.but there are still a substantial part of the population who can't do

:23:30. > :23:35.the things so many of us take for granted.

:23:36. > :23:39.Joining us now from Glasgow is Dr Lisa Cameron MP,

:23:40. > :23:42.the Chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Disability.

:23:43. > :23:48.Thank you for joining us. They recently have been talking about

:23:49. > :23:51.this is because of what happened to this Paralympian, Anne Wafula

:23:52. > :23:54.Strike, who was forced to wet herself in her wheelchair because

:23:55. > :23:58.there was no disabled toilet available. What do you make of what

:23:59. > :24:03.happened to her? Is it acceptable? Of course not. I think it actually

:24:04. > :24:07.shows from her story the real hurdles that face our Paralympian is

:24:08. > :24:11.in people with disabilities right across the United Kingdom every day

:24:12. > :24:17.of the week in accessing public services. It is not acceptable is

:24:18. > :24:22.something we need to herald change for in Parliament and it will form

:24:23. > :24:26.the next focus of our inquiry report in this parliamentary term and the

:24:27. > :24:31.all-party Parliamentary group. We saw the real there from parents

:24:32. > :24:37.having to change their children on the floor in public toilets -- real

:24:38. > :24:41.difficulty. Should that be happening? It should not. It is not

:24:42. > :24:47.hygienic for people. It should be a basic human right to access a

:24:48. > :24:51.toilet. We are marginalising and excluding people with disability

:24:52. > :24:56.from everyday services that other people just expect to be there. That

:24:57. > :25:02.copyright. It can't be right in 2017, and I think we need to ensure

:25:03. > :25:06.this year is the year we deliver it for people with disability -- that

:25:07. > :25:10.can't be right. We heard in that report the real difficulties

:25:11. > :25:14.councils are facing with funding. He should be responsible? Pressure the

:25:15. > :25:18.money come from for the sort of facilities? -- approved. It has to

:25:19. > :25:23.be supported by government. I will be pushing with the UK government in

:25:24. > :25:29.terms of debate in Parliament and also in terms of the independent

:25:30. > :25:33.inquiry report. And the equalities act, it is incumbent upon companies

:25:34. > :25:36.who provide services to make sure they make reasonable adjustments,

:25:37. > :25:40.and do we think it is reasonable for people with disability to be able to

:25:41. > :25:44.access it is reasonable for people with disability to be able to access

:25:45. > :25:48.a taller in 2017? I think it is. We need to work together and make sure

:25:49. > :25:51.across business and the public sector and government that we are

:25:52. > :25:54.singing the same tune and are actually delivering for people with

:25:55. > :25:59.disability. You say companies that provide services. What you mean and

:26:00. > :26:02.how would you enforce that? What we have to do, companies including

:26:03. > :26:06.public transport companies, including companies who employ

:26:07. > :26:13.people with disability. This is another issue that it feeds in as a

:26:14. > :26:16.vicious cycle because people with disability can't access public

:26:17. > :26:20.transport, they can't access buildings where they can go to work,

:26:21. > :26:24.then we are excluding an marginalising them. It does not make

:26:25. > :26:30.economic sense because public transport companies are actually

:26:31. > :26:33.excluding a huge part of the population that could contribute to

:26:34. > :26:38.the economic development of society and of their company. Similarly, we

:26:39. > :26:43.need to have the disability employment gap, which is huge across

:26:44. > :26:48.this country. In terms of the work we are doing, it links together. We

:26:49. > :26:52.can't exclude people with disability. We need to herald change

:26:53. > :26:55.right across the United Kingdom and make sure it is not a postcode

:26:56. > :27:00.lottery. Make sure we support changing places, which is doing

:27:01. > :27:05.fantastic work in ensuring people can have access to basic facilities

:27:06. > :27:08.such as toilets. But we need to be doing much more. Lisa, thank you for

:27:09. > :27:10.your time on BBC Breakfast this morning. Thank you.

:27:11. > :27:16.It has wowed vistors in London for more than a 100 years,

:27:17. > :27:20.but Dippy the dinosaur is set to roam again.

:27:21. > :27:25.Breakfast's Tim Muffett is at the Natural History Museum.

:27:26. > :27:34.It is always such a site when you see it as well. Good morning. Good

:27:35. > :27:38.morning. Dippy has been here since 1905, since 1979 the dinosaur has

:27:39. > :27:45.been in the main entrance hall. But it is about to be dismantled today

:27:46. > :27:51.before a UK tour gets under way. 292 pieces. It is a cast replica of an

:27:52. > :27:55.actual dinosaur skeleton. These are not fossilised bones, however it is

:27:56. > :27:59.probably one of the most famous exhibits in any museum in the UK if

:28:00. > :28:04.not the world. It is featured in films and millions of people, some

:28:05. > :28:09.90 million visitors, it is thought, have stood here and look dead Dippy

:28:10. > :28:14.over the last 100 or so years. Anyway, how do dismantle an object

:28:15. > :28:16.of this size safely -- looked at. We will be finding out later. First,

:28:17. > :31:42.the news, travel and weather way Hello, this is Breakfast,

:31:43. > :31:47.with Louise Minchin and Dan Walker. Britain's outgoing ambassador

:31:48. > :31:49.to the EU, Sir Ivan Rogers, has strongly criticised

:31:50. > :31:51.the government's preparations In his resignation letter,

:31:52. > :31:56.he urged his colleagues to continue to challenge what he called muddled

:31:57. > :31:58.thinking and ill-founded arguments. except to say that "Sir Ivan is free

:31:59. > :32:03.to express his own opinions." Earlier we spoke to Shadow Secretary

:32:04. > :32:21.of State for International Trade - What we now need is to ensure that

:32:22. > :32:24.whoever it is that replaces Sir Ivan is someone with an equally

:32:25. > :32:31.distinguished record of public service. I hate seeing the civil

:32:32. > :32:39.service either politicised or turned into" yes" people. I think we need

:32:40. > :32:48.someone with a stiff the -- distinguish record as Sir Ivan did

:32:49. > :32:52.and has a fundamental grasp of how our partners in Europe will be

:32:53. > :32:53.thinking. We need the best deal for the UK.

:32:54. > :32:55.Meanwhile, the UK's countryside and wildlife could suffer post

:32:56. > :32:58.Brexit, according to a cross party committee of MPs.

:32:59. > :33:00.Farmers could also face a loss of subsidies according

:33:01. > :33:03.to the report by the Environmental Audit Committee.

:41:16. > :41:17.the past, it has helped us a lot doing things together. I would

:41:18. > :41:28.advise anyone else, definitely, do it as a couple. You have got each

:41:29. > :41:29.other's back. It helps. Some tricky conversations. Let's find out if

:41:30. > :41:30.this couple agree. Reverand Kate Bottley

:41:31. > :41:33.and her husband Graham join us now, along with the research and insight

:41:34. > :41:43.manager of the charity Drinkaware, You might have seen on a certain TV

:41:44. > :41:48.programme. I've never seen before! What was found in this report is

:41:49. > :41:53.that women are pressurised sometimes by their partners, perhaps men, into

:41:54. > :42:03.having another drink. Is that what happens? Look at his face! It's not

:42:04. > :42:08.always tea. What we find in our marriage is it seems to go as a

:42:09. > :42:13.pair. If one of us is having a glass of wine, the other one would have a

:42:14. > :42:19.glass of wine as well. You sort of encouragement it will. You agree?

:42:20. > :42:22.Yes. You started to measure out your drinks in the little thing you

:42:23. > :42:28.bought, just to make sure you're not just a slugging it all in at once.

:42:29. > :42:33.Is that a practical response? This is clearly an issue. It makes us

:42:34. > :42:40.sound like massive drinkers. We are not. Like most people, a lot of us

:42:41. > :42:45.do stressful jobs and a glass of wine is normal. You reach for the

:42:46. > :42:51.wine. What we have in our house is a measure. Instead of just pouring it

:42:52. > :42:59.in and pouring the next one, you can measure it so you can be more aware.

:43:00. > :43:04.What is the research telling us? We did a big survey of people in

:43:05. > :43:10.couples were at least one person was drinking over the guideline. About

:43:11. > :43:15.60%, both people are drinking over and the egg each other on but there

:43:16. > :43:19.it is a big chunk of men who say actually, I am the guy who is

:43:20. > :43:22.saying, do you want another glass? They are the ones pushing the extra

:43:23. > :43:29.drink. There are 30% of women who say that they would drink less if it

:43:30. > :43:33.weren't for their partners. If you, for example, and I imagine lots of

:43:34. > :43:36.us would be attempting a dry January, how helpful is that if you

:43:37. > :43:45.are both dry question mark it helps if you have the mutual support. --

:43:46. > :43:50.if you are both dry? We have an app so you can track how much you are

:43:51. > :43:54.drinking so you can see those days where you lose willpower and that's

:43:55. > :43:57.when you want your partner to step in and say, yes, gifted that you

:43:58. > :44:01.weren't going to be drinking will stop just be that little voice of

:44:02. > :44:11.conscience to keep you on the straight and narrow. -- yes, you did

:44:12. > :44:16.say. We have to support one another because we are as bad as it is each

:44:17. > :44:20.other, you said Simon. Isabel says, if we tell people we don't eat meat

:44:21. > :44:23.there is no issue that if you don't want to drink alcohol people become

:44:24. > :44:26.self entitled bullies and try to shove drinking culture down your

:44:27. > :44:31.throat. What comes from those couples is when -- comments is when

:44:32. > :44:34.couples help each other out, it helps. In any marriage, you should

:44:35. > :44:39.be each other's' biggest encourage a.

:44:40. > :44:46.-- encouragement. When you make the vows, you promise to support each

:44:47. > :44:49.other as much as you can and I would say you are probably my greatest

:44:50. > :44:55.encouragement and also my harshest critic. It is important that you

:44:56. > :45:01.have a drink when you are the one who is there, no secret tipples. It

:45:02. > :45:06.is our kids that are our worst critics sometimes. It can be the

:45:07. > :45:10.whole family that help each other as long as you are open about what you

:45:11. > :45:16.are drinking. That will help you manage it. You make a good point. I

:45:17. > :45:23.suppose everybody can be involved in the described -- discussion. It was

:45:24. > :45:31.definitely a family thing, come on, dad. We had a guy put Sellotape over

:45:32. > :45:38.the lead of the ring pull so every time you went, home, beer, fridge,

:45:39. > :45:47.drink. It was, hang on. They need to think about it and then it stopped.

:45:48. > :45:53.Is there a sticker on your biscuit tin? I'm asking for a friend. Thank

:45:54. > :46:00.you very much. Are you going to try and do dry July? I think total

:46:01. > :46:07.abstinence won't work but we are doing less. Shirt of the year so

:46:08. > :46:13.far, man. Was that a Christmas present? Yes.

:46:14. > :46:23.Let's catch up with the weather. Some icy blue hues, Carol is talking

:46:24. > :46:27.about. For the next 24 hours, some sunshine, but tonight in particular,

:46:28. > :46:32.a widespread frost away from the coast. Today we have a weather front

:46:33. > :46:37.sinking southwards taking a band of cloud with and patchy rain and

:46:38. > :46:41.drizzle. In that northerly flow behind it, it will turn colder. As

:46:42. > :46:45.the front continues to drift towards the south-west, the court Ed Dickson

:46:46. > :46:49.behind it at the skies were clear. The other thing we have behind it is

:46:50. > :46:56.a keen northerly wind coming down the North Sea coastline -- the cold

:46:57. > :46:59.air. We could see some rain showers getting in across Norfolk.

:47:00. > :47:02.Brightening through the course of the day with some sunshine except

:47:03. > :47:06.for where the weather front is in the south-west. The Vodafone will be

:47:07. > :47:12.thick enough to produce the odd spot of light rain or drizzle -- weather

:47:13. > :47:16.front. Some of us will see sunshine when it breaks up. Into East Anglia

:47:17. > :47:21.through London up towards the Midlands, again, some sunshine. It

:47:22. > :47:24.will feel cold and you will need to wrap up warm, especially if you are

:47:25. > :47:28.travelling or walking on the shoreline down the North Sea

:47:29. > :47:32.coastline. Sunshine prevails across much of Scotland apart from Shetland

:47:33. > :47:36.and Aberdeenshire, where we could see wintry showers. Brightening

:47:37. > :47:40.across much of Northern Ireland, albeit the south will be the last to

:47:41. > :47:43.Brighton. As the front continues to drift towards the south-west, it

:47:44. > :47:48.will brighten from north Wales, and he is the weather front producing

:47:49. > :47:51.the cloud and patchy rain across the south-west. As we head into the

:47:52. > :48:05.evening and overnight, the temperature will drop rapidly. There

:48:06. > :48:09.will be a widespread frost. In towns and cities, the temperatures will be

:48:10. > :48:12.pretty low. -2 minus three. Where we have the figure cloud, temperatures

:48:13. > :48:15.holding up a little more. In rural areas, it will feel better.

:48:16. > :48:19.Widespread frost. Maybe a little too much dry air for ice in the morning,

:48:20. > :48:22.but there could be freezing fog patches. We do not expect that to be

:48:23. > :48:26.too problematic either. Tomorrow, a fine day with their sunshine around.

:48:27. > :48:29.Feeling cold with the wind got a strong and is. Late in the day, a

:48:30. > :48:33.weather front from the west accompanied by some rain and also

:48:34. > :48:36.windy conditions. One thing you will notice is as it heads further south

:48:37. > :48:41.on Friday, the weather will turn that bit milder. Thank you very

:48:42. > :48:46.much. See you later. Cold one the way. You like a bit of cold, do you?

:48:49. > :49:00.Santa didn't deliver a sales boost for Next.

:49:01. > :49:03.And we watch Next closely because it's seen as an indicator

:49:04. > :49:06.of how well the high street is doing.

:49:07. > :49:09.Figures just out show that sales in the run up to Christmas fell 0.4%

:49:29. > :49:31.They've also said they might have to raise prices in stores by up

:49:32. > :49:42.Kirsty McGregor is from Drapers Magazine.

:49:43. > :49:51.Those are the figures from Next, the first one to tell us how they fared

:49:52. > :49:54.over Christmas. What does it tell us about the state of the high street

:49:55. > :49:58.this Christmas? It is a worrying sign from Next this morning. They

:49:59. > :50:02.tend to be a bit of a bellwether for the high street. I think we will see

:50:03. > :50:05.a few more trading statements like this same Christmas was

:50:06. > :50:09.disappointing, and it is not good news. Christmas is the key period

:50:10. > :50:14.for all retailers when they expect to see a boost in sales. What are

:50:15. > :50:17.the interesting things if you delve into their statement? Even be after

:50:18. > :50:23.Christmas sales, normally they would expect to flog things more cheaply

:50:24. > :50:27.and people will buy it. Those sales fell significantly, down by 7%. Does

:50:28. > :50:32.it suggest people bought before Christmas and said, OK, I am not

:50:33. > :50:37.buying any more, and in the New Year it will be tough? Next took a gamble

:50:38. > :50:40.keeping things full price in the run-up to Christmas. That is what

:50:41. > :50:44.they usually do. They usually use the cells to try to get people into

:50:45. > :50:48.the shops afterwards. It does not seem to have paid off that strategy

:50:49. > :50:51.this year. We are seeing an underlying move away from spending

:50:52. > :50:56.so much muggy on clothing and footwear. People seem to be spending

:50:57. > :51:01.more on going out and technology and things like that -- money. They have

:51:02. > :51:04.also one of price rises next year. A lot of firms have said prices could

:51:05. > :51:08.start rising next year as well. There is this double whammy. They

:51:09. > :51:13.touched on inflation. Things are coming through means we have less

:51:14. > :51:17.money in our pockets and wage growth is not keeping up. At the same time

:51:18. > :51:21.prices are rising. We all feel the squeeze in the New Year? I think we

:51:22. > :51:25.will. They initially said 5% price rise would be the worst case

:51:26. > :51:30.scenario this year, but I think it is looking likely now. I suspect we

:51:31. > :51:35.will see with people like Next, who play in the value space, they will

:51:36. > :51:39.try to keep the low end prices down and perhaps just raise prices

:51:40. > :51:43.towards the end of the bracket, the upper end. But it will be a tough

:51:44. > :51:47.year, and I think people will be spending less on clothing. With that

:51:48. > :51:51.in mind, what can retailers do to persuade us to get through the

:51:52. > :51:55.doors? As you said, maybe we are spending less on clothing and maybe

:51:56. > :51:59.more on going out, but even then, if we have less money in our pockets,

:52:00. > :52:03.had do they persuade us to part with that money? It is having a strong

:52:04. > :52:08.multichannel strategy, making sure your website is top notch. We will

:52:09. > :52:12.see with a lot of retailers, if you have a good website, online sales

:52:13. > :52:15.will probably prop things up. A great website and making sure you

:52:16. > :52:19.have the right stories in the right locations. And try to do something a

:52:20. > :52:23.little bit exciting that makes people want to come into the shops

:52:24. > :52:29.rather than to shop online. Yes, a familiar tale. Thank you so much.

:52:30. > :52:31.Remember, next week, another busy week as far as retail figures are

:52:32. > :52:33.concerned. Morrisons, John Lewis,

:52:35. > :52:42.to look forward to. Dinosaurs haven't roamed the earth

:52:49. > :52:52.museums across the country, but first, there's the small

:52:53. > :52:55.matter of dismantling it. Breakfast's Tim Muffett

:52:56. > :53:06.is with Dippy now. Lots of you will be familiar with

:53:07. > :53:08.this site. Such a stunning entrance to the Natural History Museum. Good

:53:09. > :53:15.morning. A lot of people have been in touch

:53:16. > :53:20.this morning saying see in Dippy has been one of the oldest memories and

:53:21. > :53:26.making them interested in science. They make 's been here since 1905,

:53:27. > :53:30.and in entrance all since 1979. But the dismantling process is about to

:53:31. > :53:35.get under way. Dippy is living here and is going to be going on a UK

:53:36. > :53:41.tour of eight destinations, which will take just over two years. How

:53:42. > :53:45.on earth did you go about dismantling an object is famous, as

:53:46. > :53:49.precious as this? You will find out shortly. Firstly, here are some

:53:50. > :53:51.facts and figures about Dippy delivered by visitors to the museum.

:53:52. > :54:06.Dippy is 21 metres long and made up of 292 bones.

:54:34. > :54:37.We are a little sad because Dippy sort of feels like an old friend,

:54:38. > :54:43.It gives people an opportunity to see an amazing dinosaur that

:54:44. > :54:46.perhaps they would not be able to see at all.

:54:47. > :55:10.Lorraine, you have the somewhat vast task of dismantling Dippy and taking

:55:11. > :55:15.Dippy on a tour. Where'd you begin? I know tomorrow morning, we start by

:55:16. > :55:20.taking the glass barrier down, and then starting at the tail, we will

:55:21. > :55:29.take the title. It is bit like I'm dreading a string of pearls. Each

:55:30. > :55:38.one of those vertebrae come off. Then the head, and then the middle

:55:39. > :55:42.section. -- INET threading. We have looked at the metalwork and we can

:55:43. > :55:47.see where the bolts unscripted we are going to very carefully take it

:55:48. > :55:51.apart. We have some pictures, so we think we know what we are doing. But

:55:52. > :55:55.you can never tell. We have 3.5 weeks to take Dippy down. If you

:55:56. > :55:59.look at the neck end, they are cables hanging from the ceiling. We

:56:00. > :56:04.have to disconnect that. There is a lot of big about. Dippy is about to

:56:05. > :56:08.go on a UK tour of eight destinations. They should be coming

:56:09. > :56:12.up on the screen now. How did you choose where Dippy would go on show?

:56:13. > :56:17.A lot of people applied and we looked carefully. The eight venues

:56:18. > :56:22.spread around the UK represent a really good place for them to go.

:56:23. > :56:26.They are going to meet up with local museums and schools, and they will

:56:27. > :56:30.do fantastic events. We will reach millions more people, people who do

:56:31. > :56:34.not necessarily get down to London. And they will explore nature in

:56:35. > :56:38.their own region. The UK has an amazing diversity of natural and we

:56:39. > :56:44.want people to engage with their own region. Dippy is our ambassador for

:56:45. > :56:48.that. Lorraine, from everybody on our team, good at. It is quite a

:56:49. > :56:53.process. It will take several weeks. -- good luck. Then Dippy will say

:56:54. > :56:58.goodbye to the Natural History Museum after 100 years, but a blue

:56:59. > :57:03.whale will replace them act in this space. It is fantastic. Just like

:57:04. > :57:08.doing an enormous dinosaur shaped puzzle. We will be back later as

:01:07. > :01:09.Sir Ivan Rogers strongly criticised the government's preparations

:02:35. > :02:40.About to go on a UK tour. How do you take apart a 292 boned skeletons

:02:41. > :02:49.safely? We will be finding out later.

:02:50. > :02:55.Here is Carol with the weather. For England and Wales it is cloudy start

:02:56. > :03:00.with patchy light rain, except in the north where we have clear skies.

:03:01. > :03:04.Frosty with some sunshine and in Northern Ireland, you have a bit of

:03:05. > :03:09.both, some bright spells and sunshine, but there is a keen wind

:03:10. > :03:15.down the North Sea coastline. I will put all of that together 15 minutes.

:03:16. > :03:18.Britain's outgoing ambassador to the European Union,

:03:19. > :03:20.Sir Ivan Rogers, has strongly criticised the government's

:03:21. > :03:24.In his resignation letter he said he didn't know what ministers'

:03:25. > :03:25.negotiating objectives were and called on his

:03:26. > :03:28.colleagues to challenge what he called muddled thinking.

:03:29. > :03:31.Our Diplomatic Correspondent, James Landale, reports.

:03:32. > :03:34.Sir Ivan Rogers has been Britain's ambassador

:03:35. > :03:37.to the EU for three years, and his criticisms about

:03:38. > :03:41.the Government's preparations for Brexit will be hard to ignore.

:03:42. > :03:48.In his resignation e-mail, he says there is a short supply of...

:03:49. > :03:57.He reveals that even he does not know what the Government's

:03:58. > :03:59.negotiating objectives for Brexit will be.

:04:00. > :04:02.But it is Sir Ivan's implicit and thinly veiled criticism

:04:03. > :04:09.He urges fellow officials never to be afraid to speak truth

:04:10. > :04:12.to power, and to challenge what he calls muddled thinking

:04:13. > :04:18.He says they should support each other in difficult moments

:04:19. > :04:22.when they have to deliver messages that are disagreeable to those

:04:23. > :04:27.So, Sir Ivan's charge is a serious one -

:04:28. > :04:30.that the Government isn't ready for Brexit and it is ignoring

:04:31. > :04:44.Our Political Correspondent Iain Watson joins us from Westminster.

:04:45. > :04:51.How significant and potentially damaging might this be? Very

:04:52. > :04:57.significant for the following reasons. Certainly, you would expect

:04:58. > :05:02.the EU ambassador should be fundamentally diplomatic in his

:05:03. > :05:05.approach. But the resignation letter from Sir Ivan Rodgers was far from

:05:06. > :05:10.diplomatic. He simply could have said I am standing aside and get

:05:11. > :05:15.someone else in place before negotiations begin in earnest. He

:05:16. > :05:19.went, he went much further than that. So far this is serious,

:05:20. > :05:26.because not only is he criticising the government's approach, there is

:05:27. > :05:28.no timetable or process in place to choose his successor, just months

:05:29. > :05:34.before these crucial negotiations begin. What should have been a

:05:35. > :05:37.diplomatic job, a civil service job has now become highly political. We

:05:38. > :05:42.believe campaigners arguing they want someone who believes in Brexit

:05:43. > :05:48.to be in that position. That puts pressure on Theresa May over who

:05:49. > :05:52.that should be. Whoever takes that job will be under scrutiny as well.

:05:53. > :05:58.We have heard what Sir Ivan Rodgers thinks of a lack of experience in

:05:59. > :06:04.negotiating and we might be outmanoeuvred by the European

:06:05. > :06:08.committee. It will be serious if Theresa May cannot get the right

:06:09. > :06:12.candidate for the job. But the most serious thing in that letter is

:06:13. > :06:16.this, after seven months, the person who should be in the know, the

:06:17. > :06:20.ambassador to the EU still isn't clear what the negotiating

:06:21. > :06:27.objectives are for leaving the European Union. Though Theresa May

:06:28. > :06:29.says Brexit means Brexit, the most senior man in Brussels until

:06:30. > :06:35.yesterday, doesn't know what Brexit means. Thank you.

:06:36. > :06:37.Meanwhile, the UK's countryside and wildlife could suffer post

:06:38. > :06:39.Brexit, according to a cross party committee of MPs.

:06:40. > :06:42.Farmers could also face a loss of subsidies according to the report

:06:43. > :06:43.by the Environmental Audit Committee.

:06:44. > :06:46.It calls for new laws to ensure existing protections for farming

:06:47. > :06:48.are not weakened once Britain leaves the EU.

:06:49. > :06:52.The government says it is committed to safeguarding and improving them.

:06:53. > :06:54.Former drivers for a private ambulance firm that provides

:06:55. > :06:58.emergency cover for the NHS, say they were given just an hour's

:06:59. > :07:04.A company based in Essex called the 'Private Ambulance Service'

:07:05. > :07:06.is contracted to respond to emergencies during busy times.

:07:07. > :07:09.The company says the level of training of its staff exceeds

:07:18. > :07:24.Two thirds of asthma patients in the UK aren't receiving

:07:25. > :07:26.the basic care needed to manage their condition according

:07:27. > :07:29.to research by charity Asthma UK, They say that although the figures

:07:30. > :07:32.are slightly better than a year ago, almost 3.5 million

:07:33. > :07:35.The charity has warned that this failing could "cost lives"

:07:36. > :07:40.Being on the right medication and knowing how to use

:07:41. > :07:47.So too is having regular check-ups and getting tailored advice on how

:07:48. > :07:53.This year's annual asthma care survey shows most people with asthma

:07:54. > :07:58.aren't receiving this basic care, that's around 3.6 million

:07:59. > :08:07.In 2015 in the UK, nearly 1,500 people died from asthma attacks,

:08:08. > :08:14.According to Asthma UK, two in every three asthma deaths

:08:15. > :08:22.Most patients think the care they receive is satisfactory

:08:23. > :08:27.or excellent, but few get the full package of basic care.

:08:28. > :08:31.NHS England says every asthma patient should be supported

:08:32. > :08:35.to manage their condition and offered regular reviews.

:08:36. > :08:39.And it's not just medical staff who need to do more,

:08:40. > :08:42.according to Asthma UK, who say people with asthma

:08:43. > :08:51.must take responsibility for their own care too.

:08:52. > :08:53.West Yorkshire Police have carried out further searches overnight

:08:54. > :08:55.after a man was shot and killed by officers

:08:56. > :09:00.Yassar Yaqub, died on Monday evening, after police in unmarked

:09:01. > :09:04.vehicles stopped a car just off the M62 in Huddersfield.

:09:05. > :09:10.Phil Bodmer is close to where the shooting happened.

:09:11. > :09:19.Phil what is the latest in this investigation?

:09:20. > :09:26.The M62 Junction 24 westbound finally reopened last night. Just

:09:27. > :09:33.over 24 hours after it was closed following the fatal shooting of

:09:34. > :09:40.28-year-old Yassar Yaqub, a father of two from Huddersfield. The

:09:41. > :09:46.investigation is being handled by the Independent police complaints

:09:47. > :09:49.in. They say they are making good progress but it is a complex

:09:50. > :09:54.investigation and it might take some time. They are appealing for people

:09:55. > :10:01.to be patient. Police officers stopped a number cars on Sunday

:10:02. > :10:04.night, including a white Audi. The investigation is focusing on that

:10:05. > :10:08.and also the shooting of Yassar Yaqub is very much part of that

:10:09. > :10:12.investigation, trying to find out the circumstances leading up to

:10:13. > :10:15.that. What we know is police undertook a number of searches in

:10:16. > :10:25.the Huddersfield area last might. Officers are not being specific

:10:26. > :10:31.about the precise locations. Also, a spontaneous process, one in Leeds

:10:32. > :10:35.last night. Some of them were peaceful protest. Officers were

:10:36. > :10:40.deployed to make sure those protests remained peaceful. We have heard one

:10:41. > :10:44.police van was attacked with stones and some officers were attacked.

:10:45. > :10:48.Although we have to get that officially confirmed. There is a

:10:49. > :10:52.postmortem being carried out today on the victim. We should find out

:10:53. > :10:57.more about that later. Meanwhile, five people remain in custody, being

:10:58. > :11:01.questioned about this incident. Thank you very much.

:11:02. > :11:02.It's being reported that the convicted mass murderer,

:11:03. > :11:05.Charles Manson, has been taken to hospital.

:11:06. > :11:07.Media reports say that Manson, who is in his 80s,

:11:08. > :11:11.has been moved to a hospital about an hour away from the state

:11:12. > :11:15.Manson, who was sentenced to life in prison, directed his followers

:11:16. > :11:19.to murder seven people in August 1969.

:11:20. > :11:21.An earthquake was detected 100 miles from Scarborough last night.

:11:22. > :11:23.The British Geological Survey says the tremor,

:11:24. > :11:27.which was in the North Sea, happened just before

:11:28. > :11:40.7:00pm yesterday evening and had a magnitude of 3.8.

:11:41. > :11:45.Somewhere near there. I need one of those pointers.

:11:46. > :11:48.A couple who were forced to spend the night in the Scottish Cairngorms

:11:49. > :11:50.have spoken of their relief at being rescued.

:11:51. > :11:52.Robert and Cathy Elmer were reported missing on Sunday night

:11:53. > :11:54.and sheltered in a bivvy bag before rescuers reached

:11:55. > :11:58.Yesterday, another man was saved from the mountain range,

:11:59. > :12:03.Janet Jackson's given birth to her first child.

:12:04. > :12:07.The younger sister of Michael Jackson, who is 50,

:12:08. > :12:12.She is said to have had a stress-free delivery.

:12:13. > :12:15.The singer stopped a world tour last April, telling her fans

:12:16. > :12:21.she was planning a family with her husband.

:12:22. > :12:39.2017 should be the year of change for people with disabilities. Rules

:12:40. > :12:45.are looking to be tightened for access. All this is revealed after a

:12:46. > :12:48.Paralympian wet herself in a wheelchair because her train didn't

:12:49. > :12:54.have a working disabled toilet. But Lisa Cameron told us it was

:12:55. > :12:59.unacceptable. It should be a basic human right to be able to access a

:13:00. > :13:03.toilet. We are marginalising and excluding people with disability

:13:04. > :13:08.from everyday services that other people just expect to be there. That

:13:09. > :13:13.cannot be right, it cannot be right in 2017 and I think we need to make

:13:14. > :13:18.sure this year is the year we deliver for people with disability.

:13:19. > :13:22.The government has told as it is looking at better ways to ensure

:13:23. > :13:27.there are more disabled toilets available. Later today, campaigners

:13:28. > :13:31.are talking about having better changing facilities for quarter of a

:13:32. > :13:36.million people in the UK who needs them. Nicky Fox has more on this.

:13:37. > :13:41.Spending a day at the shops is something so many of us do. But for

:13:42. > :13:46.Maria and Ryan, it is not a pleasurable experience. Ryan is

:13:47. > :13:50.autistic and needs a bathroom that has the right amount of space and

:13:51. > :13:54.equipment to allow his mum to change him. But there aren't that many

:13:55. > :13:58.around. Would you be prepared to put your child, your mum or your sister

:13:59. > :14:09.on the floor to change them if they were still wearing nappies?

:14:10. > :14:12.It is this kind of problem that affects at least a quarter

:14:13. > :14:17.This woman can look after her son Adam at home because she has

:14:18. > :14:24.But it is a whole different matter when they leave the house.

:14:25. > :14:27.It is 1.5 hours' round trip to find a suitable public toilet.

:14:28. > :14:34.We can't go out for a full day in Bury.

:14:35. > :14:41.A fully-accessible bathroom like this.

:14:42. > :14:47.There are only 900 of these Changing Places across the UK.

:14:48. > :14:51.It is the creme de la creme of bathrooms.

:14:52. > :14:54.When I came in here with Josh, my son, when he was alive,

:14:55. > :14:58.the first thing would be to bring the ceiling track hoist over.

:14:59. > :15:02.But before it opened, Dawn would have to change

:15:03. > :15:07.You don't change people on the floor.

:15:08. > :15:09.My son obviously had been through chemo.

:15:10. > :15:16.At the end of this life, for the last two years,

:15:17. > :15:19.Shortly before he died, Josh opened this facility.

:15:20. > :15:22.It meant he could rest his spine, which was really important for us,

:15:23. > :15:32.because it meant he could continue to go out and experience life.

:15:33. > :15:34.It has taken four years for Maria to secure the funding

:15:35. > :15:37.for a Changing Places toilet in her local shopping

:15:38. > :15:44.They are not cheap, coming in at around ?18,000.

:15:45. > :15:46.There is currently no legal obligation to provide one.

:15:47. > :15:50.Councils say cuts to funding mean they have had to make tough choices

:15:51. > :15:54.But they are working with local businesses

:15:55. > :16:02.It is not looking much from outside at the moment, but this is where

:16:03. > :16:08.They have every right to be able to toilet in the correct way.

:16:09. > :16:11.So to have this facility is giving them their basic human rights

:16:12. > :16:14.of being able to go to the toilet in public, but safely, securely,

:16:15. > :16:22.There is no easy route to getting a Changing Places toilet.

:16:23. > :16:24.Towns and cities are beginning to take the Changing Places on,

:16:25. > :16:27.but there are still a substantial part of the population

:16:28. > :16:35.who can't do the things so many of us take for granted.

:16:36. > :16:51.Lots of you have been getting in contact with us about this.

:16:52. > :16:56.Donna says, everybody is one step away from being the person who needs

:16:57. > :16:58.to use these toilets, or they may be isolated at home.

:16:59. > :17:03.Neil says, I have complete sympathy, but at a cost of ?18,000, can we

:17:04. > :17:08.expect local authorities or private businesses to supply them, however

:17:09. > :17:13.much we wish for them? Somebody else says, what about a corporate social

:17:14. > :17:18.responsibility? Joanne says, our shopping centre has

:17:19. > :17:23.won awards, the disabled toilet is massive with Wales and a large

:17:24. > :17:28.changing table. Howerd says, he transported two disabled family

:17:29. > :17:34.members around 1200 miles, he says everywhere they went the disabled

:17:35. > :17:43.toilets doubled as a baby changing room, and families used them, a lack

:17:44. > :17:46.of paper, generally pretty grim. As for hoists and adult sized changing

:17:47. > :17:49.tables, they did not seek them at all. He said we live in the Stone

:18:14. > :18:19.we have cold weather to get through first. It is a cold start today, but

:18:20. > :18:27.this cold night will be even colder, with a widespread frost. The weather

:18:28. > :18:30.front is producing cloud and patchy rain and drizzle, and it will

:18:38. > :18:43.pushes further south, you will find the push of cold air getting further

:18:44. > :18:48.south as well. We have a keen northerly wind. We will see showers

:18:49. > :18:53.coming inland of the North Sea, if you of them in Shetland and

:18:54. > :18:56.Aberdeenshire will be wintry, but they will be rain showers as they

:18:57. > :19:02.push into Norfolk. It brightens up this afternoon. The weather front

:19:03. > :19:05.moves towards the south-west. There will be some holes in the cloud,

:19:06. > :19:12.some sunshine coming through and patchy rain. The rain is fairly hit

:19:13. > :19:16.and miss. As we move north, through the Midlands, towards northern

:19:17. > :19:22.England, blue skies. More cloud towards the coast. Fairly windy. As

:19:23. > :19:28.we move across Scotland and into Northern Ireland, a fair bit of

:19:29. > :19:35.cloud. The cloud will clear the south of Northern Ireland last. And

:19:36. > :19:40.the south of Wales. Into the south-west, we also have the cloud

:19:58. > :20:06.countryside, Peter Bridges will be a lot lower than that. There might be

:20:07. > :20:11.some patchy fog forming. If that happens, it will be freezing fog.

:20:12. > :20:16.After the cold start, we are looking at a lot of sunshine and dry

:21:40. > :21:42.and a 7% fall in sales of goods they'd discounted to try

:21:43. > :21:44.and entice shoppers. The company has lowered its profit

:21:45. > :21:47.expectations this year as a result, but has also highlighted concerns

:21:48. > :21:49.for the coming year. The falling pound and a squeeze

:23:08. > :23:14.Nazinin's husband Richard Ratcliffe joins us now from their

:23:15. > :23:25.We have talked to you before. For people who don't know much about her

:23:26. > :23:33.story, how did she end up being detained? Nazanin went on holiday

:23:34. > :23:38.with our daughter at Easter, and was picked up at the airport on the way

:23:39. > :23:41.back home and was whisked off down south and kept in solitary

:23:42. > :23:45.confinement and later charged with national security related issues and

:23:46. > :23:50.sentenced to five years in September. As we speak the appeal is

:23:51. > :23:58.happening, so hopefully that may be overturned. How optimistic are you

:23:59. > :24:05.that things might change? I am terrified. It is unpredictable, what

:24:06. > :24:11.will happen. It has been fairly arbitrary all the way through. We

:24:12. > :24:18.have to wait until it has happened and the lawyer tells us, we have had

:24:19. > :24:23.limited access to Nazanin at this point. It has been political all the

:24:24. > :24:26.way through. When she was taken, messages say that she will not be

:24:27. > :24:32.released if the British don't negotiate, soap anything could

:24:33. > :24:36.happen, it could be the sentence is reduced or quashed, it could be that

:24:37. > :24:44.it is increased, it could be that we don't know for a few weeks. I am

:24:45. > :24:48.trying to keep calm. Incredibly frustrating and difficult position

:24:49. > :24:55.to be in. How has she been doing? She was very low before Christmas,

:24:56. > :24:57.we have been campaigning hard to bring her back for Christmas, and

:24:58. > :25:02.that did not happen. At some point she confessed to feeling suicidal

:25:03. > :25:06.and she went on hunger strike for a number of days, but brokered

:25:07. > :25:11.following the intervention of her family. Then she was put back into

:25:12. > :25:17.solitary confinement. On Christmas Day she had a family visit, and she

:25:18. > :25:21.was told she is being moved, and she has now been moved to the general

:25:22. > :25:25.cell. It is a long journey back to trust people, but being in company

:25:26. > :25:29.makes a big difference. You cannot go there at the moment, you have not

:25:30. > :25:36.been able to get a Visa? That is right. Trying to get an

:25:37. > :25:41.authorisation number is where I am, it is proving to be quite

:25:42. > :25:45.confiscated, but yes, that is the next step from my side. Your

:25:46. > :25:51.daughter has been staying with her grandparents, how is she doing? She

:25:52. > :25:56.is getting older, and she begins to ask questions, when are we going

:25:57. > :26:01.back to London, where our mummy and daddy? She talks about prison being

:26:02. > :26:07.mummy's bedroom. She does not understand things in the big sense

:26:08. > :26:13.and she is young enough to live in the moment, and she is in a place

:26:14. > :26:18.where she is loved. Nazanin can feel the difference, she is less missing

:26:19. > :26:24.her mum and she is an Iranian girl who speaks Farsi. But she is safe.

:26:25. > :26:35.If it went your way today, but they be able to come back as Mac --? If

:26:36. > :26:38.she was released I would expect that we would be able to get them home

:26:39. > :26:43.very quickly, that is dominant what happens. There is a problem around

:26:44. > :26:49.our daughter's passport, but I am sure there would be ways of sorting

:26:50. > :26:55.it if Nazanin is released. Best of luck.

:26:56. > :30:23.Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are.

:30:24. > :30:26.Plenty more news travel and weather on our website at the usual

:38:36. > :38:38.in history to win 14 consecutive games in one season when they meet

:38:39. > :38:43.Tottenham at White Hart Lane. If they manage it the Blues

:38:44. > :38:46.will become only the fifth team, in any of the divisions

:38:47. > :38:48.to manage the feat. Former England defender,

:38:49. > :38:57.Danny Mills joins us now. Good morning, Danny. We talk about

:38:58. > :39:01.these big games we look forward to sometimes and they are not always

:39:02. > :39:06.brilliant when they happen, they? But tonight cannot fail, surely. I

:39:07. > :39:09.think there is extra spice in this one, what happened at Stamford

:39:10. > :39:13.Bridge at the end of last season with Chelsea ruining Tottenham's

:39:14. > :39:16.chances of winning the Premier League, Chelsea beat them earlier

:39:17. > :39:21.this season, Tottenham will want to spoil the party. It's not often

:39:22. > :39:25.about revenge in football because time moves on quickly and players

:39:26. > :39:31.change but these are basically the same sets of players and Tottenham

:39:32. > :39:35.will be desperate to stop them. They spoil the party last year.

:39:36. > :39:39.Massively. Chelsea captain John Terry said not on my watch,

:39:40. > :39:42.suggesting Spurs might have won the league. There is a huge rivalry and

:39:43. > :39:47.because of that Tottenham will not want them to win 14 in a row.

:39:48. > :39:51.Chelsea are fantastic at the moment, defensively they have been superb

:39:52. > :39:55.and that is why they are top of the league. That's not just because you

:39:56. > :39:59.are a defender? There is a bit of bias but ultimately without a good

:40:00. > :40:05.defence you don't win the title of. This is despite the fact, I think I

:40:06. > :40:13.remember talking to you when they brought in the curly haired

:40:14. > :40:18.Brazilian. David Luiz! My mind went blank for a moment. Has been

:40:19. > :40:23.forgettable at times. Heap was said not to be the best defender but

:40:24. > :40:26.Conte has rearranged things. -- he was said. Very good performances, no

:40:27. > :40:31.one is talking about his extravagant free kicks and extravagant mistakes

:40:32. > :40:36.anymore, it is just Dafydd Lewis playing well and that's the key. The

:40:37. > :40:42.difference is Conte, isn't it? He's made a massive difference. -- David

:40:43. > :40:46.Luiz. He's defensively minded and he has changed the back three and is as

:40:47. > :40:50.worked well for them. He's getting the best out of his players. Not

:40:51. > :40:53.necessarily the greatest players if you look at the wingbacks who have

:40:54. > :40:57.struggled at other Premier League clubs in their careers and suddenly

:40:58. > :41:03.now with his passion and everything he has he gets the best out of them.

:41:04. > :41:08.Including the crowd, we have seen him playing the crowd. Pep Guardiola

:41:09. > :41:13.tried it at Manchester City as well. It sort of worked but then in his

:41:14. > :41:18.interview afterwards maybe he wasn't as happy as he thought he was. We

:41:19. > :41:25.made a big fuss about Mourinho in the Premier League, Jurgen Klopp.

:41:26. > :41:30.And Guardiola. All of that first sand actually Conte slipped under

:41:31. > :41:34.the radar, a bit like Dyfed Luiz but he has been incredibly effective. --

:41:35. > :41:38.David Luiz. He knows what he wants to do and he has a plan and he is

:41:39. > :41:42.getting the best out of his players. Can we say that about Pep Guardiola

:41:43. > :41:50.at the moment? Possibly not. Can I interrupt you? Pasty news. Food

:42:01. > :42:04.Danny Mills. It's nice to be on the front page of the business news

:42:27. > :42:29.years ago and I've just sold it to the brothers who own the gin stirs

:42:30. > :42:34.group and it's an opportunity for them to take it forward and it is a

:42:35. > :42:37.great deal for us, the investment is five times on and it's been a great

:42:38. > :42:43.start to the year. What does it mean for pasties? More importantly we

:42:44. > :42:51.enhanced the product, Phil Vickerey was involved, Phil won MasterChef

:42:58. > :42:59.feeling! We increased the brand, the diversification of products and

:43:00. > :43:05.we've really taken it to the next level and now it's up to him to take

:43:06. > :43:11.it on and enhance it and increase outlets and production. And again,

:43:12. > :43:16.this time of year, a good story, 230 odd jobs saved and hopefully they

:43:17. > :43:22.will create even more. Who knew! It is good news, isn't it? It is

:43:23. > :43:27.good news. Good news for you! It is not bad for me, a good start to the

:43:54. > :44:13.to cut down on the booze. I think if your wife stops drinking

:44:14. > :44:16.I think you've got to do the right thing, we would support each other.

:44:17. > :44:27.I would have to challenge myself rather than get the other person to

:44:28. > :44:33.manage their own drinking habits. I just usually do it for my own

:44:34. > :44:37.well-being and the rest of it, I try and do it to lose a bit of weight

:44:38. > :44:44.and get healthier. Well, I do try and help you but I do cut down as

:44:45. > :44:49.well. 100%, he would completely support me, absolutely, definitely.

:44:50. > :44:52.Are you going to tell me to do it? I gave up for seven years and you

:44:53. > :45:02.still drank. I just carried on! I think if one of us is going to do

:45:03. > :45:07.it we would both have to do it so we were both as in it as each other. In

:45:08. > :45:11.the past it has helped us a lot doing things together, so I would

:45:12. > :45:15.advise anyone else, definitely, do it as a couple. You've got each

:45:16. > :45:18.other's back then and it really helps.

:45:19. > :45:25.A lot of you have been really supportive about this. It is a

:45:26. > :45:29.popular topic. And says that one person loses their drinking buddy, I

:45:30. > :45:34.stopped two years ago, it was the best decision I ever made. My

:45:35. > :45:38.husband still loves his wine, but while he drinks his wine I drink

:45:39. > :45:45.soft drink and we enjoy ourselves together. Joe and says that her

:45:46. > :45:48.fella drank ten -- bought ten cans over Christmas and still has eight

:45:49. > :45:56.left. Someone else says that they wish that people respected their

:45:57. > :46:00.decisions not to drink. Another says that they gave up drinking due to

:46:01. > :46:07.temporary medication, her boyfriend did the same, it is easier to do it

:46:08. > :46:10.together. Helen says she shocked by how many people have drinking

:46:11. > :46:15.problems these days, some people cannot spend a day without drinking.

:46:16. > :46:20.Simon says you have two support one another.

:46:21. > :46:26.If you are having a dry January, good luck, stay with it! I am

:46:27. > :46:30.trying... Is your other half causing an issue? The trouble is, when the

:46:31. > :46:38.wine is on the table, it is so tempting to have a little sip... Why

:46:39. > :46:42.not put some blackcurrant juice there? For me? That's a good idea!

:46:43. > :46:46.Then you have the sensation and the feeling! It's not the same! I'm

:46:47. > :46:51.trying... Maybe Carol has some ideas!

:46:52. > :46:57.Good morning! Not dry January in terms of the weather, there is some

:46:58. > :47:00.rain in the forecast, patchy, but not here, this beautiful picture

:47:01. > :47:04.from one of our Weather Watchers were sent in this morning. A

:47:05. > :47:08.cracking picture of London, Twickenham with a lovely start to

:47:09. > :47:14.the day, there is card cover around. Over the next 24 hours, some of it

:47:15. > :47:19.will see sunshine but it will be frosty tonight -- cloud cover.

:47:20. > :47:25.Widespread away from the coast. This weather front moves south, bringing

:47:26. > :47:30.in cloud, patchy rain and drizzle. Called across Scotland and northern

:47:31. > :47:34.England, as the weather front pushes down towards the south-west, colder

:47:35. > :47:40.air digs writing behind it, the sun comes out as well. Windy down the

:47:41. > :47:45.coast, in Shetland and Aberdeenshire, it will be wintry.

:47:46. > :47:50.There will be rain in Norfolk, but as the sun comes out, except in

:47:51. > :47:55.southern areas, this weather front produces cloud and the odd spot of

:47:56. > :47:59.rain but even so, here and there, there will be sunshine. Drifting

:48:00. > :48:04.over towards the south-eastern corner into Kent, and East Anglia,

:48:05. > :48:09.some sunshine, a bit of cloud at times, shall was coming in from the

:48:10. > :48:11.North Sea. In the Midlands, heading north across northern England, it is

:48:12. > :48:17.a cracking day. Close to the North Sea, more cloud

:48:18. > :48:20.and a bit windy. In Scotland, dry and sunny weather except in the far

:48:21. > :48:25.north-east where there are some when three showers and the sun comes out

:48:26. > :48:30.in Northern Ireland. The last to come out across the South of

:48:31. > :48:33.Northern Ireland and Wales. In the south-west, back under the influence

:48:34. > :48:37.of this weather front producing cloud and patches of rain and

:48:38. > :48:42.drizzle. Through the evening and overnight, these blues dominate the

:48:43. > :48:46.chart. Temperatures fall like a rock quickly and we have widespread

:48:47. > :48:50.frosts away from the coast, and away from where we have this weather

:48:51. > :48:55.front. In towns and cities it is minus two degrees or minus three

:48:56. > :48:59.degrees, it could get as low as -7 in the countryside tonight.

:49:00. > :49:05.There's a chance that we could see the odd pocket of freezing fog.

:49:06. > :49:09.After the cold start, a lot of dry weather and sunshine around, some

:49:10. > :49:12.cloud here and there. Then we have the remnants of this weather front

:49:13. > :49:15.across south-west England, Pembrokeshire and heading into

:49:16. > :49:20.Northern Ireland. More cloudy here with spots of rain. Then, the next

:49:21. > :49:25.is waiting in the wings which will bring in wet and windy conditions as

:49:26. > :49:28.it pushes steadily southwards through Thursday and into Friday.

:49:29. > :49:32.Before it arrives in the south, we are looking at a cold and frosty

:49:33. > :49:38.start and, more readily, there will be fog on Friday morning. As the

:49:39. > :49:42.rain goes southwards, it will left, windy around it and nothing to

:49:43. > :49:47.substantial. Then a return to brighter spells and some showers.

:49:48. > :49:52.Mild conditions come by on Friday, in Norwich, and as we head to the

:49:53. > :49:56.weekend, the theme continues. It is a relatively mild weekend, settled

:49:57. > :50:00.and at times it will be cloudy but we will have sunshine, some patches

:50:01. > :50:03.of rain at times, but another weather front comes into the

:50:04. > :50:10.north-west, bringing in more organised rain on Sunday.

:50:11. > :50:23.STUDIO: Organised rain, my goodness. Before we let you go, you know, are

:50:24. > :50:31.you "diplo-docus", "di-ploddi-cus", or "dip-lod-i-cus"? The first one!

:50:32. > :50:37.73% of you viewers feel like it is "diplo-docus". But the Natural

:50:38. > :50:41.History Museum have been in contact saying it is "di-ploddi-cus", but I

:50:42. > :50:46.have been used to saying it is "dip-lod-i-cus". They say that

:50:47. > :50:48.struck me speaking it should be "diplo-docus".

:50:49. > :51:08.It is Americans -- "dip-loddi-kus", not

:51:09. > :51:11."diplo-docus". Dinosaurs haven't roamed the earth

:51:12. > :51:13.for quite some time, but one by the name of Dippy

:51:14. > :51:16.is about to embark It will travel around museums

:51:17. > :51:19.across the country but first, there's the small matter

:51:20. > :51:21.of dismantling it. Breakfast's Tim Muffett

:51:22. > :51:25.is with Dippy now. The latest I've heard is to say it

:51:26. > :51:28.however you want! This exhibit here arrived in 1905, and it has been in

:51:29. > :51:31.the main hall since 1979, and more than 5 million people in year come

:51:32. > :51:37.to the museum, and they stand here in wonder, and admire it. Many

:51:38. > :51:40.people have been inspired by science due to this being their first memory

:51:41. > :51:45.of visiting London. But it is going to be dismantled and will go on a UK

:51:46. > :51:51.tour, but how do you take apart and exhibit is famous and as precious as

:51:52. > :51:55.this? We will be speaking to the person responsible for doing that in

:51:56. > :51:58.just a moment, but here are some facts about Dippy from some visitors

:51:59. > :52:02.# Everybody walk the dinosaur here at the museum...

:52:03. > :52:16.Dippy is 21 metres long and made up of 292 bones.

:52:17. > :52:18.Dippy is a plaster cast replica of a skeleton found

:52:19. > :52:29.Dippy has been viewed by more than 90 million visitors.

:52:30. > :52:32.Dippy will be going on a two-year tour around the UK and will be

:52:33. > :52:34.replaced here by the skeleton of a blue whale.

:52:35. > :52:38.We are a little sad because Dippy sort of feels like an old friend,

:52:39. > :52:49.It gives people an opportunity to see an amazing dinosaur that

:52:50. > :52:57.# Open the door, get on the floor to see at all.

:52:58. > :53:16.The person responsible for taking Dippy apart safely and taking her on

:53:17. > :53:19.tour, or taking him? Lorraine is the head of conservation here, where

:53:20. > :53:23.will you start? We want to start by taking down the glass barrier, then

:53:24. > :53:28.we will build scaffolding, you can see that it is quite high in some

:53:29. > :53:33.areas. Then, we go for the tail, we will take it down, like and

:53:34. > :53:39.threading pearls from a string of pearls, then we move up to the head,

:53:40. > :53:43.to the neck, then we come to the middle area which is more

:53:44. > :53:47.complicated. And then we take each Bonaparte. As you can see, she's a

:53:48. > :53:53.little dusty so we will clean it and have a look at the conditions -- we

:53:54. > :53:57.will take each bone apart. Is there a chance that you can damage it by

:53:58. > :54:03.doing that? You have to be careful and considered, we have had three or

:54:04. > :54:08.four inspections, we think it should be OK. Fingers crossed. You will

:54:09. > :54:13.visit eight destinations across the UK. We will see the names of those

:54:14. > :54:18.places on the screen now, how do you choose which places get to exhibit

:54:19. > :54:25.Dippy? The first thing in size, Dippy is quite big so the venue has

:54:26. > :54:30.to be able to take something of Dippy's side, and the venue has to

:54:31. > :54:34.offer more to visitors in terms of stories about the natural history in

:54:35. > :54:39.their region, so we short listed these eight venues which are

:54:40. > :54:49.partnering with local museums, Natural History Museum -- societies

:54:50. > :54:55.and schools. And when the exhibition comes to an end in 2020, what will

:54:56. > :54:58.happen to Dippy then? It is a registered specimen and part of the

:54:59. > :55:02.natural collection, we want to make sure that Dippy is on show somewhere

:55:03. > :55:05.and accessible, so we are talking to people and will think about what we

:55:06. > :55:10.will do with Dippy, but we would like Dippy to be on show somewhere.

:55:11. > :55:15.A blue whale will be on show somewhere, and you can say that

:55:16. > :55:20.Dippy will never be in this space again? Until six o'clock today, then

:55:21. > :55:28.he will go, then the blue whale will go there. The blue well will have a

:55:29. > :55:32.different impact, it's an iconic specimen, Dippy is a cast, the blue

:55:33. > :55:39.whale is real. It will talk about a lot of the science that we do and we

:55:40. > :55:42.hope it will engage people with the natural world, we hunted whales to

:55:43. > :55:47.extension, we have brought them back. We want to tell stories about

:55:48. > :55:51.our science. Some people have been intact saying they remember coming

:55:52. > :55:56.to the museum as a kid and they are now working in science, it has a wow

:55:57. > :56:03.factor, you are taking it down, it is a big call? It is but we will put

:56:04. > :56:08.it together again and tour the UK, hoping to inspire people from around

:56:09. > :56:11.the UK, that is what we do, we have 80 million objects here, we like to

:56:12. > :56:13.loan them out and get other people to see them.

:56:14. > :56:20.Lorraine, thank you for explaining this task, taking that apart safely

:56:21. > :56:24.and putting it back together in eight different places over the next

:56:25. > :56:28.few years, good luck to Lorraine and everyone from Breakfast. Dippy,

:56:29. > :56:32.goodbye from the Natural History Museum but enjoy your journey around

:56:33. > :56:33.the UK so a lot of people can enjoy this site we are seeing this

:56:34. > :56:39.morning. STUDIO: Thank you.

:56:40. > :56:44.That is one of my first memories. He looks like he was listening... He,

:56:45. > :56:50.or she, Dippy, let's be clear! We will stick with that from now one!

:56:51. > :56:52.From fraudulent crematorium owners to budgie-stealing

:56:53. > :56:54.teenagers crying wolf, the TV show No Offence is crime

:56:55. > :56:58.Set within the Manchester Police force, the series follows a team

:56:59. > :57:02.of detectives who have to crack some unusual cases.

:57:03. > :57:04.We'll be joined by two of the programme's actors

:57:05. > :57:06.in a moment, Joanna Scanlan and Alexandra Roach,

:57:07. > :57:23.We are rain. -- we are in. Get the whole congregation in. Yes,

:57:24. > :57:43.beautiful! Get us a look at the other front

:57:44. > :57:47.row... Relax. Somebody is bound to be videoing... I will send you a

:57:48. > :57:52.copy. Joining us now are Joanna Scanlan

:57:53. > :58:02.and Alexandra Roach who both play It's lovely to see you both. Thank

:58:03. > :58:07.you, and for people who have not seen it, it is a mix of comedy and

:58:08. > :58:13.crime? Is that how you would describe it? It is definitely crime!

:58:14. > :58:17.It takes both the boxes! It is a drama, really, in that you get a

:58:18. > :58:22.fantastic story which is truly involving. But, it has a fantastic

:58:23. > :58:29.spin all the time where things come in, so surprisingly, that they are

:58:30. > :58:32.funny. So, I used to grow about on a place for today, they were dramas

:58:33. > :58:37.but incredibly funny at the same time, but it is in that spirit. What

:58:38. > :58:42.is it like coming back after a 14 month break? Yes, it was quite long,

:58:43. > :58:49.coming up to Manchester to film for five months and get back into the

:58:50. > :58:56.same detective outlets and suits, and hair... -- outfits. I am playing

:58:57. > :59:02.Joy, a serious buttoned up character. We can see her, here. She

:59:03. > :59:14.is fun to play. And you wrote a lot of it? No Offence? No offence... I'd

:59:15. > :59:18.tell you, I've got up to early! I didn't, we definitely didn't, Paul

:59:19. > :59:22.Abbott wrote it. That is the thing, it is so well written that if we

:59:23. > :59:27.meddled, we were talking about improvising with the show and you

:59:28. > :59:31.cannot do it. It does not work. The lines are so fast and beautifully

:59:32. > :59:41.composed, and really funny, that, hands off... And he writes powerful

:59:42. > :59:44.women in a brilliant way? Yes. There are six female characters upfront...

:59:45. > :59:49.There cannot be many productions you work on that like that? To be

:59:50. > :59:53.honest, there isn't. I do not know if it will happen again. We enjoy

:59:54. > :00:02.working together and what I loved it is not mentioned in the show. It's

:00:03. > :00:06.not that vehicle for this, female parts. We are just women doing our

:00:07. > :00:11.job. And we are so used to having female bosses in this world. The

:00:12. > :00:15.truth is, everybody is working to a female boss, so that is why I think

:00:16. > :00:19.one of the reasons the show works is that we are looking at our own

:00:20. > :00:26.lives. It's a mirror to nature. Do you like playing a female boss? I

:00:27. > :00:31.love it! Why particularly? I am modest, quite shy and retiring and

:00:32. > :00:36.would never interpose my views on anybody! This character is the

:00:37. > :00:43.absolute opposite -- impose. She is fast, balls a and is not allow any

:00:44. > :00:48.truck with anything other than what works in terms of getting what she

:00:49. > :00:52.wants. And in terms of storylines, what can you reveal about the second

:00:53. > :00:56.series? People who watched the first would know that there are crazy

:00:57. > :01:01.crimes taking place! And you try to get to the bottom of them? This is

:01:02. > :01:05.very much the same and it is a new story, if you've not seen the first

:01:06. > :01:11.series then you can jumping into the deep end with this. And follow it

:01:12. > :01:15.through. It is fast paced and we think it is establishing gang and

:01:16. > :01:23.turf wars in Manchester, but as you dive into it, in our jobs, it

:01:24. > :01:29.becomes a whole depth of crime and... It is a more complex story

:01:30. > :01:33.than you first think. It is two families, there is ours, the police,

:01:34. > :01:37.and then there is the crime family, and initially we think it is about

:01:38. > :01:42.how the police. That happening. But actually there are a lot of twists

:01:43. > :01:49.and turns, and it goes to some grim places on the way... It will be dark

:01:50. > :01:53.and funny... You came to Manchester to film for five months and being an

:01:54. > :02:02.actor, it is quite a different job, you had to put things on hold a bit?

:02:03. > :02:06.Yes, you live for five or six months which is the nature of the job, I

:02:07. > :02:09.love it, and I got to know Manchester, and all of these

:02:10. > :02:15.different cities, like Leeds and Liverpool... And it helps that you

:02:16. > :02:17.all get on! Argh, look at that! And what have you been doing in the

:02:18. > :02:29.meantime? Inside number nine which is on BBC

:02:30. > :02:33.Two, I did that, and that will be coming out around February time, I

:02:34. > :02:37.think, which is a really dark comedy with Steve Pemberton and Rhys Shear

:02:38. > :02:45.Smith that they wrote. You are doing some writing for an American show,

:02:46. > :02:49.is that right? Puppy love, a show that we did for BBC, we are doing a

:02:50. > :02:57.version for HBO so we have been working on that a lot. It is

:02:58. > :03:01.fascinating. That is exciting. Yes, it is set in America. Americans love

:03:02. > :03:07.their dogs as much as we do. How many changes are you having to make?

:03:08. > :03:10.Surprisingly few. Dog owners are dog owners within our Western world

:03:11. > :03:14.bubble, that way of dealing with animals is exactly the same in the

:03:15. > :03:24.UK and America. Do you have to work in a writers' room? I don't know if

:03:25. > :03:32.that qualifies, we have a writers' room of two. I always imagined you

:03:33. > :03:36.sitting there brainstorming. We are going to be pretty contained, if you

:03:37. > :03:42.have to write 20 episodes you'll have a lot more writers on board.

:03:43. > :03:48.But we worked with HBO on Getting On which was a BBC show they did three

:03:49. > :03:53.series of in the States they only had two writers as well. It can work

:03:54. > :04:00.with a duo. All the best with that. Thank you very much. You can watch

:04:01. > :04:04.No Offence From The Start, Or You Can Dive Into Night it starts at 9pm

:04:05. > :05:38.on Channel 4. hope you can join me then

:05:39. > :05:49.- bye bye. Most of us like to be a little

:05:50. > :05:53.bit nosey when it comes to other people's houses,

:05:54. > :05:57.but this is a new level. These incredible pictures you see

:05:58. > :06:00.behind us were all taken from high-end designed homes

:06:01. > :06:04.in extreme locations. They form part of a new TV series

:06:05. > :06:07.where architect Piers Taylor and actress Caroline Quentin find

:06:08. > :06:09.out more about the properties, We'll speak to Piers

:06:10. > :06:13.in a moment, first, let's take Oh, OK.

:06:14. > :06:17.Hang on. This is actually fabulous

:06:18. > :06:22.looking but quite It's going.

:06:23. > :06:27.That's it. Do you know what I

:06:28. > :06:50.really love about it? You've got the desert and

:06:51. > :06:53.the mountains on either side and yet this house just enhances it

:06:54. > :06:55.and doesn't take away from it. Preserving the natural beauty

:06:56. > :07:02.of these mountains was key to the The owners' desire was

:07:03. > :07:25.to embrace rather than It was just peaceful even looking at

:07:26. > :07:33.that. I want to go. You stayed a night in that, didn't you? We did.

:07:34. > :07:39.With did a real pilgrimage, fragile ecosystem, we let ourselves into

:07:40. > :07:41.this house which was an extraordinary architectural

:07:42. > :07:45.environment, like no other I've been to. They are extraordinary homes and

:07:46. > :07:50.they are all over the place. Is there a favourite for you? They are

:07:51. > :07:53.all favourites but there was some interesting experiences I had as an

:07:54. > :08:04.architect. I'm used to judging things quickly from outside but

:08:05. > :08:06.there was an old barn built into a hillside which you had to go through

:08:07. > :08:15.a tunnel before you are merged into it. Is it this one? Yes, it is in

:08:16. > :08:18.Switzerland. You go into this old farm barn and then go into this

:08:19. > :08:22.extraordinary underground tunnel made out of concrete lid with chinks

:08:23. > :08:25.of light coming from above before you emerge in the hillside looking

:08:26. > :08:31.at this extraordinary Swiss landscape. The theatre of it was

:08:32. > :08:37.something humbling. Imagine waking up to that every morning. You would

:08:38. > :08:40.never leave, would you? There was a hot tub Caroline and I ended our

:08:41. > :08:45.time in the house in, it was fantastic. The theme seems to be

:08:46. > :08:50.they are so much part of their environment. Is this the way we will

:08:51. > :08:53.build houses in the future, or is there a change going on? It is the

:08:54. > :08:57.way we use to build houses, we couldn't do anything other than look

:08:58. > :09:00.at the vernacular, how people build houses locally, the techniques and

:09:01. > :09:04.materials used, but also look at how you can build in a landscape without

:09:05. > :09:08.destroying them. What was great about all of the houses we went to

:09:09. > :09:12.was they were building extraordinary locations but the house is often

:09:13. > :09:15.made the location is better, they didn't make them worse. This one is

:09:16. > :09:19.in a forest, a good indication of what you are talking about. There

:09:20. > :09:22.was not a single tree knocked down here so they looked at how they

:09:23. > :09:27.could weave the house among the trees without disturbing the roots

:09:28. > :09:31.and you end up with a piece of architecture that is very responsive

:09:32. > :09:35.and sensitive to where it is. I was blown away by people's creativity

:09:36. > :09:39.and the way you could see a space command in my small brain I would

:09:40. > :09:43.just build a blockhouse, and yet the design is just really inspirational

:09:44. > :09:48.to look at, it must be to walk around as well. That is

:09:49. > :09:51.architecture, architecture is about making extraordinary things

:09:52. > :09:54.possible. That is what you spent nine years doing, working out how to

:09:55. > :09:58.do something that is extraordinary, that is in some cases quite

:09:59. > :10:03.transformative in terms of the beauty and the possibilities of what

:10:04. > :10:08.you are designing. Tell me about the 747 wings, because this is

:10:09. > :10:11.extraordinary. The 747 house was really California, we went into the

:10:12. > :10:15.Californian mountains and there was an old art collector, she was an old

:10:16. > :10:20.but she had a huge tradition of collecting things and she employed a

:10:21. > :10:23.very Californian architect to make a house of effectively salvaged and

:10:24. > :10:30.consumer waste. But what he did was she bought on his behalf and old 747

:10:31. > :10:34.Anne Begg disassembled it, brought the wings across the desert carried

:10:35. > :10:38.by helicopter before they settled on the top of this extraordinary

:10:39. > :10:42.hillside looking at the Santa Monica Mountains and it was mind blowing.

:10:43. > :10:45.The other thing I like about this programme is the dynamic between you

:10:46. > :10:51.and Caroline Quentin. In some ways it shouldn't work but it does. Was

:10:52. > :10:54.it originally conceived as a single presenter programme? Yes, it was

:10:55. > :10:58.conceived as a single present programme, but we thought that is

:10:59. > :11:00.quite boring, architects telling people about houses is much less

:11:01. > :11:04.interesting than showing people what I like to be in than talking about

:11:05. > :11:09.them with somebody else, travelling with somebody else, arriving with

:11:10. > :11:12.somebody else, mucking around with somebody else, and we developed a

:11:13. > :11:15.good friendship and we went on holiday with my wife and her husband

:11:16. > :11:19.and we carried on doing the same thing, talking about things jumping

:11:20. > :11:24.out and it was great. You seem to have been given the keys to all of

:11:25. > :11:28.these houses. We have the keys to all of them and it was a privilege

:11:29. > :11:32.to do a pilgrimage to these places and for me it was it kind of

:11:33. > :11:36.sabbatical to go to these places I had read about. It is a curious

:11:37. > :11:40.relationship between the homeowners and the architects, always an

:11:41. > :11:44.interesting relationship to see. It is a very symbiotic relationship,

:11:45. > :11:49.isn't it? Very sympathetic and the architect's job is not just to take

:11:50. > :11:53.the brief and make what they want, just to push people to try and give

:11:54. > :11:56.people what they never dreamt possible but somehow in their psyche

:11:57. > :12:02.they thought they could have. They are dream homes, aren't they? They

:12:03. > :12:07.are. You cannot help but be envious because none of these are done on a

:12:08. > :12:12.small budget. This is quite modest, only 100 square metres, but it is on

:12:13. > :12:16.a rocky outcrop 20 miles off the coast of Sweden in the Archipelago

:12:17. > :12:20.and it's a piece of landscape. You can walk over the building. You can

:12:21. > :12:24.inhabit it like you would a rocky outcrop by the sea, by the coast, it

:12:25. > :12:28.is a beautiful experience being in a building that isn't just a box with

:12:29. > :12:32.doors and windows like the one next door. How about the one where you

:12:33. > :12:36.couldn't make a cup of tea? That would be a problem for me. It was

:12:37. > :12:40.extraordinary in terms of architectural ambition, like going

:12:41. > :12:43.into the engine room of a Nasa rocket, but actually the question

:12:44. > :12:47.was how to make a cup of tea and you can't just put the kettle on and

:12:48. > :12:51.fill it up, you have to learn how to make a cup of tea. That was quite

:12:52. > :12:58.fun, you couldn't make a cup of tea. Can I ask what sort of people on the

:12:59. > :13:01.sorts of houses? Are they business types? Other people who have loads

:13:02. > :13:04.of cash? They are people interested in architecture. They are all people

:13:05. > :13:09.really interested in architecture, not doing them to show off, they are

:13:10. > :13:12.doing them to make a lifetime's vision come true. They fall in love

:13:13. > :13:17.with a place, often have a memory of a childhood and they have spent 20

:13:18. > :13:20.or 30 years to get the money together to do it, some of them,

:13:21. > :13:24.then they will have something for the rest of their lives and very few

:13:25. > :13:31.people will see it. It's not about showing off, it's doing something

:13:32. > :13:34.extraordinary for themselves. Piers Taylor, thank you for joining us.

:13:35. > :13:37.And The World's Most Extraordinary Homes is on BBC Two on Friday

:13:38. > :13:48.and you came back with a catalogue of travel disasters.

:13:49. > :13:53.It's a nightmare. Wake me up from it, please.

:13:54. > :13:59.It was just a shambles, that's the best way to say it.

:14:00. > :14:02.ANGELA: So, whether it's a deliberate rip-off,
