Winter pressure on Accident and Emergency, nothing new. But the Red | :02:09. | :02:14. | |
Cross says it amounts to a crisis. The charity claims social care cuts | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
means patients are sent home without the right support so they end up | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
back in A Red Cross volunteer support NHS staff and say they have | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
seen patients at home without clothes, some who don't receive the | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
care they need to get washed, even some who have fallen and not been | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
found for days. A staff recognise the problems as well. I think the | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
pressures on the NHS and day care is intense at the moment, but what is a | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
concern as the patients who have been managed within four hours, and | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
then the delays for admission into the hospital bed base, which | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
unfortunately are very significant. Our staff are working under some | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
pretty intolerable conditions at times trying to manage. And | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
sometimes they just can't manage. Figures from NHS England show that | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
overflowing A departments have to close their doors to new patients | :03:08. | :03:13. | |
more than 140 times over the last month. Compare that with the same | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
month in 2015, it is up more than 60%. The suspicion is it is a | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
combination of the cuts we have seen in social care in community services | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
run by the NHS and very heavy pressure in general practice. So is | :03:27. | :03:31. | |
the strain on the NHS costing lives? The death of two patients on | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
emergency trolleys at Worcestershire Royal Hospital are being | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
investigated. One of them had waited 35 hours per bed. The Department of | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
Health says it is providing billions more every year to ease pressure. | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
NHS England says plans are in place to deal with the extra demand. The | :03:48. | :03:59. | |
beds are actually not quite as full as they were this time last year but | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
everyone in the Health Service knows things could get worse before they | :04:04. | :04:05. | |
get better. We will have more on this story | :04:06. | :04:05. | |
later in the programme. We will be speaking | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
to Dr Mark Holland from the Society Police in Florida have been | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
questioning a man after five people were killed and dozens injured | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
in a shooting at Fort Lauderdale The suspect opened fire | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
in the baggage claim area, after seemingly retrieving his | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
weapon from his luggage. The FBI says it is pursuing | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
all leads and hasn't ruled out President Obama said | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
he was heartbroken for the families. Our correspondent Gary O'Donoghue | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
reports from Fort Lauderdale. It is a familiar scene | :04:32. | :04:33. | |
at airports the world over, but the baggage claim hall | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
at the Fort Lauderdale Airport turned into a place of death | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
and mayhem, as a lone gunman opened fire on those waiting | :04:40. | :04:42. | |
to collect their luggage. Passengers scattered for cover, | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
hitting the ground, and reports say | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
the assailant had time to reload attempts were made to | :04:52. | :04:53. | |
attend to the wounded. Once he was done with ammunition, | :04:54. | :05:04. | |
he threw the gun down after one He basically through the gun | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
onto the ground and laid on the ground face | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
down, spreadeagled. The gunman has been named | :05:14. | :05:14. | |
as 26-year-old Esteban Santiago. Reports say he was carrying | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
a military ID and had a weapon in his checked baggage, | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
which is legal in the United States. One family member said he had been | :05:21. | :05:23. | |
receiving psychological treatment after leaving the National | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
Guard last year. This cowardly, heinous act resulted | :05:27. | :05:28. | |
in the deaths of five people. There were eight more people injured | :05:29. | :05:34. | |
by way of gunshot that In his first reaction | :05:35. | :05:37. | |
to the shooting, President Obama said he was heartbroken | :05:38. | :05:47. | |
for the families. These kinds of tragedies have | :05:48. | :05:49. | |
happened too often during the eight The FBI says it's ruling nothing | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
out, including terrorism. But the agency has confirmed it had | :05:55. | :06:09. | |
prior contact with Santiago in November when he was referred | :06:10. | :06:11. | |
for a mental health assessment. The ease with which he was able | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
to transport and use a weapon in an airport will raise serious | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
concerns about public safety. We can join Gary outside | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
Fort Lauderdale International Gary, this story has been | :06:22. | :06:23. | |
developing overnight. Well, essentially you are allowed to | :06:24. | :06:41. | |
carry a firearm in your checked baggage in the US. Now, there are | :06:42. | :06:46. | |
some restrictions, some rules. You have to be carrying it to a state | :06:47. | :06:50. | |
where you are allowed to possess a firearm. You have to put it in your | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
checked baggage, as I say, you have to put it in a locked, hard sided | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
container. The gun has to be unloaded. You can't have ammunition | :07:00. | :07:05. | |
in it, but you can carry ammunition with you. So on the face of it he | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
has done nothing wrong in terms of firearms laws. The crucial point | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
here is that he was able to collect that baggage at the belt, he was | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
able to go into a laboratory just near the baggage claim area, | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
seemingly unpack that semiautomatic weapon, load it, go back in and open | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
fire indiscriminately, and what's more he had time to reload and start | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
all over again before he laid out on the floor and gave himself up. So | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
aside from the motivations for what he did, there will be questions | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
about whether or not security in that part of the airport at that end | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
of the travel process is sufficient. For now, thank you very much indeed. | :07:48. | :07:49. | |
US intelligence officials have released a report that claims | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
Vladimir Putin personally ordered a cyber campaign to try and help | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
Donald Trump win the presidential election. | :07:56. | :07:57. | |
Last night, after being briefed on the findings, Mr Trump said that | :07:58. | :08:00. | |
hacking had absolutely no impact on the election result, | :08:01. | :08:02. | |
but promised to set up a team to stop such attacks in the future, | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
The report from American intelligence claims | :08:07. | :08:18. | |
Russia's President, Vladimir Putin, personally ordered what it called | :08:19. | :08:20. | |
an influence campaign to help Donald Trump's chances of winning | :08:21. | :08:23. | |
The President-elect had earlier described the Russian hacking claims | :08:24. | :08:36. | |
as a political witch-hunt by his opponents. | :08:37. | :08:38. | |
At Trump Tower, he met America's top intelligence officials | :08:39. | :08:41. | |
They say Russia's actions included hacking into the e-mail | :08:42. | :08:48. | |
accounts of the Democratic National Committee and top Democrats, | :08:49. | :08:50. | |
and using intermediaries such as WikiLeaks to | :08:51. | :08:52. | |
Russia has previously denied this, and WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
has said before that Moscow is not the source. | :08:57. | :09:03. | |
After the briefing, Mr Trump did not single out Russia. | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
The incoming Vice President says the US | :09:08. | :09:22. | |
The President-elect has made it very clear that we're going to take | :09:23. | :09:39. | |
aggressive action in the early days of our new administration to combat | :09:40. | :09:42. | |
cyber attacks and protect the security of the American people | :09:43. | :09:45. | |
from this type of intrusion in the future. | :09:46. | :09:48. | |
Donald Trump said he had tremendous respect for the work and service | :09:49. | :09:51. | |
done by those in the US intelligence community. | :09:52. | :09:54. | |
But, with two weeks to go until he moves into the White House, | :09:55. | :09:57. | |
questions remain over how they will all work together | :09:58. | :10:00. | |
The repair bill to fix the country's potholes could soon | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
That is according to nearly 400 councils in England and Wales, | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
who say the Government should increase fuel duty to pay | :10:09. | :10:11. | |
The Government says it is already putting ?250 million | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
But the Local Government Association says that is not enough, | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
Councils six 2 million potholes every year. That is about 12,000 for | :10:20. | :10:33. | |
every local authority in England and Wales. But it never seems to be | :10:34. | :10:37. | |
enough. Now the council the repair bill could soon reach ?14 billion. | :10:38. | :10:45. | |
Hard-pressed councils, who are mending, you know, pothole every | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
five seconds in this country just cannot get to the core of the | :10:50. | :10:54. | |
problem, which is actually many of our roads are just being patched | :10:55. | :10:58. | |
now. They need to be fully repaired. The council say the government must | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
do more to help. They suggest increasing fuel duty by a couple of | :11:04. | :11:07. | |
pence a litre, a figure they say the public would support. It is not just | :11:08. | :11:12. | |
the cost of repairing all these potholes that seems to be on the | :11:13. | :11:15. | |
increase. Today's report also found that the time it is taking appears | :11:16. | :11:20. | |
to be on the rise as well, going up from ten years in 2006 to 14 years | :11:21. | :11:27. | |
today. Last year, the government announced a ?250 million pothole | :11:28. | :11:30. | |
repair fund to help 100 councils fixed 4 million potholes. Today's | :11:31. | :11:37. | |
report by local councils suggest that is not enough, and that the | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
pothole problem is actually getting worse. | :11:41. | :11:42. | |
For the first time, the NHS is providing disabled children | :11:43. | :11:44. | |
with prosthetic limbs that are specially designed for sport. | :11:45. | :11:47. | |
13-year-old Ben from Brighton was amongst the first to benefit, | :11:48. | :11:50. | |
NHS England says it hopes the programme will allow several 100 | :11:51. | :11:54. | |
children a year to receive limbs, allowing them to participate | :11:55. | :11:57. | |
We will be hearing from him later on in the programme. | :11:58. | :12:21. | |
I want to go back to the story we mentioned earlier, the shooting at | :12:22. | :12:30. | |
Fort Lauderdale, in Florida, which has drawn attention to possible | :12:31. | :12:32. | |
weaknesses in US aviation security. Local authorities say the gunman | :12:33. | :12:34. | |
opened fire in the baggage claim area yesterday, after retrieving | :12:35. | :12:37. | |
a weapon from his checked luggage. Five people were killed | :12:38. | :12:39. | |
in the attack and eight Joining us in the studio | :12:40. | :12:42. | |
is the Independent's travel editor I think for a lot of people waking | :12:43. | :12:50. | |
up this morning, they will be surprised to hear that it is | :12:51. | :12:53. | |
perfectly OK to carry a gun in your luggage, but that is the case, isn't | :12:54. | :12:58. | |
it? It is, not just in the US, worldwide. Certainly in the US it is | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
easier. You turn up at check-in and say I have a firearm in my bag and | :13:03. | :13:06. | |
they will make a note of that but there is no formalities. Elsewhere | :13:07. | :13:10. | |
it is tricky. For instance British airways requires three days of | :13:11. | :13:14. | |
advance notice and there are various rules about permits and so on. South | :13:15. | :13:19. | |
Africa and Italy say you have to have your weapon and ammunition in | :13:20. | :13:22. | |
separate tags. But generally it has done all over the world. What is | :13:23. | :13:26. | |
different about Fort Lauderdale and Florida and the US is that you have | :13:27. | :13:32. | |
a nation with liberal gun laws and culture of carrying firearms, which | :13:33. | :13:36. | |
means that when tragedy like this happens there are, very sadly... It | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
is very easy for somebody to be in that position, because probably on a | :13:42. | :13:45. | |
typical flight you might have three or four people having weapons in | :13:46. | :13:50. | |
their checked bags. But it does expose some really serious questions | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
about aviation security. Again, not just in the US, but worldwide. You | :13:55. | :14:00. | |
were speaking earlier to your correspondent, Gary O'Donoghue, he | :14:01. | :14:03. | |
was standing right outside from what I could make out the terminal to | :14:04. | :14:08. | |
baggage reclaim. You have a glass door and a road -- Terminal 2. There | :14:09. | :14:13. | |
is nothing to stop people going into that area as they have done, for | :14:14. | :14:17. | |
example, in Moscow. Aviation security professionals are saying | :14:18. | :14:20. | |
they spend all this time and effort stopping people getting weapons on | :14:21. | :14:28. | |
the aircraft, but that leaves the very high-profile aviation target, | :14:29. | :14:31. | |
airports, very exposed because whether you are going through | :14:32. | :14:34. | |
check-in, retrieving baggage or picking someone up at the airport, | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
there are really no checks on who comes and goes. We saw President | :14:39. | :14:44. | |
Obama in Gary's he's talking about another incident, and he has thought | :14:45. | :14:48. | |
about trying to do more to control guns and has failed, by his own | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
admission, to do much. Is there a move to try and change things within | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
aviation, within the plant industry, or is that equally difficult to | :14:57. | :15:00. | |
change? That I think is exactly right. There will be questions | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
about, well, yes, you have obvious targets which are airports, with | :15:05. | :15:09. | |
lots of people, you have a culture of not wanting any harm to come to | :15:10. | :15:13. | |
people in those circumstances. There seems to be, from what we have heard | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
so far, and issue involving someone with mental health problems in the | :15:18. | :15:21. | |
country with very relaxed gun laws, that happens to have taken place in | :15:22. | :15:26. | |
an airport, rather than specifically an aviation security issue. However | :15:27. | :15:32. | |
it does, once again, as with Russell 's airport, as with Istanbul, remind | :15:33. | :15:36. | |
us that there is all sorts of uneasy questions -- Brussels Airport. You | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
can come and go wherever you like as long as you are not going through to | :15:42. | :15:45. | |
the area where you bought the aircraft. Thank you. | :15:46. | :15:52. | |
Quarter past six and you are watching Breakfast. Helen is the | :15:53. | :15:59. | |
weather for us this morning. Is it murky? I am afraid it is a bit grey | :16:00. | :16:05. | |
out there. It is not all doom and gloom but it may have impact on | :16:06. | :16:11. | |
travelling. A thick mist and hill fog, mostly fog around the | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
Manchester and Liverpool regions. We will keep a lot of leaden skies this | :16:16. | :16:21. | |
week in Cronulla should be mostly dry and temperatures are | :16:22. | :16:24. | |
considerably higher than this time yesterday, especially for England | :16:25. | :16:28. | |
and Wales. But chilly in Ireland but largely forced free. Another spot of | :16:29. | :16:34. | |
rain as well. The remnants of a weather front as we had south across | :16:35. | :16:40. | |
the southern half of England. As I mentioned around the chest of | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
playing it feels sick and that may be an issue for travellers. And | :16:46. | :16:48. | |
across the English Channel, temperatures are said to be quite | :16:49. | :16:53. | |
icy for some of the airports over here and for travellers as well. We | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
got rid of the cold air is so it is milder across UK for the weekend. | :16:58. | :17:02. | |
There will be some brightness, probably across the north-east of | :17:03. | :17:06. | |
Scotland, eastern parts of north Island but on the whole it will be a | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
great day. There could be drizzle lingering in the south-west but | :17:13. | :17:16. | |
overnight high pressure will build and dry things up a little bit here. | :17:17. | :17:20. | |
Again it should be largely forced free because we keep a blanket of | :17:21. | :17:25. | |
cloud that stops temperature from falling. More misty, murky weather | :17:26. | :17:32. | |
to contend with as the breeze picks up across the west of Scotland there | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
is a chance to break the cloud or more. Eastern parts of Scotland and | :17:38. | :17:40. | |
north-east England, slightly brighter day across the south-west. | :17:41. | :17:44. | |
Still relatively mild with temperatures average. It will not | :17:45. | :17:54. | |
feel warmer but nowhere near as cold as it is across eastern parts of | :17:55. | :18:01. | |
Europe. -25 in Moscow! Of the most bitter weather of the season across | :18:02. | :18:05. | |
central and eastern parts of Europe. How about next week? It is all | :18:06. | :18:12. | |
change here in the UK. Weather fronts move through so a set of | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
benign weather this weekend. It will be replaced by something more | :18:17. | :18:17. | |
settled in next week. We'll be back with | :18:18. | :18:20. | |
the headlines at 6.30. Time now to take a look at some | :18:21. | :18:22. | |
of the week's big cinema releases - Hello, and a very warm | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
welcome to the Film Review. To take us through this week's | :18:27. | :18:44. | |
cinema releases is Antonia Quirtke. We are going to start with Silence, | :18:45. | :18:50. | |
Martin Scorsese's new film, Liam Neeson, Andrew Garfield, | :18:51. | :19:00. | |
Adam Driver, they are playing Jesuit Passengers, starring Chris Pratt, | :19:01. | :19:04. | |
Jennifer Lawrence, about two passengers sleeping in suspended | :19:05. | :19:13. | |
animation for 120 years on their way to a new colony on a far-away planet | :19:14. | :19:16. | |
and they wake too early. And also, Assassin's Creed, | :19:17. | :19:21. | |
Michael Fassbender's big movie, Let's kick off then with Silence, | :19:22. | :19:23. | |
a great passion of Martin Scorsese, trying for years and | :19:24. | :19:37. | |
years to get this made. First talk of it in 1990 | :19:38. | :19:47. | |
with Daniel Day Lewis, and Benicio Del Toro have | :19:48. | :19:50. | |
been attached to it. He was famously brought | :19:51. | :19:56. | |
up a devout Catholic, had a great and genuine | :19:57. | :19:58. | |
interest in the priesthood, at one point he was going to join | :19:59. | :20:01. | |
the priesthood, so Catholicism has Religion in his films, | :20:02. | :20:04. | |
the Last Temptation of Christ and Kundun, but even | :20:05. | :20:09. | |
something like Mean Streets, What is the religious | :20:10. | :20:11. | |
Martin Scorsese like? This is a difficult film to watch, | :20:12. | :20:17. | |
it is about the persecution and torture of priests | :20:18. | :20:22. | |
and their flock. 161 minutes, incredibly long, | :20:23. | :20:26. | |
and relentless, long conversations reflecting Martin Scorsese's | :20:27. | :20:29. | |
own ambiguity towards his own faith. I know that it has been | :20:30. | :20:34. | |
very highly praised, and not many people have gone to see | :20:35. | :20:38. | |
it, but it has been critically I think that there is a pulse | :20:39. | :20:42. | |
of confusion in it, I was not clear what Martin Scorsese | :20:43. | :20:51. | |
was trying to say. The directors he admires, | :20:52. | :20:53. | |
religious directors, Carl Dreier, Joe Navarre, | :20:54. | :20:55. | |
Robert Bresson, there is a euphoria And yet, you can't help think, | :20:56. | :20:58. | |
this was Scorsese's moment to join the ranks of those | :20:59. | :21:12. | |
kind of directors. I'm not sure that he has done it, | :21:13. | :21:14. | |
but I know that many people Let's take a little clip | :21:15. | :21:18. | |
here, for a preview. We have fought to | :21:19. | :21:21. | |
travel, for the Lord. If we do not do what they want, | :21:22. | :21:34. | |
then there could be danger They could be put in prison, | :21:35. | :21:41. | |
they could be taken away forever. As you were saying, a long watch, | :21:42. | :21:46. | |
a pretty gruelling watch, Absolutely, Andrew Garfield, | :21:47. | :22:14. | |
when he played Spider-Man, that role did that young actor no | :22:15. | :22:23. | |
favours and here he is, he has a quality of deeply inherent | :22:24. | :22:26. | |
youthfulness and vulnerability, anyone who saw him in | :22:27. | :22:29. | |
Never Let Me Go will remember that, and also, a Japanese actor, | :22:30. | :22:32. | |
Issey Ogato, he plays the Grand Inquisitor in this, | :22:33. | :22:35. | |
and he is an incredible actor, ingenious casting | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
for Martin Scorsese. And this is a comedic actor, | :22:40. | :22:42. | |
but he playing someone who does the most terrible things, | :22:43. | :22:45. | |
he's a comedic actor, he has wonderful kabuki gestures, | :22:46. | :22:49. | |
and the performance Something pretty different, | :22:50. | :22:55. | |
Passengers - Silence, gruelling, is Passengers | :22:56. | :23:03. | |
something easier? A lot fluffier, a lot more fun, | :23:04. | :23:05. | |
this is about two passengers in suspended animation, | :23:06. | :23:11. | |
hibernation for 120 years on their way to a new colony | :23:12. | :23:14. | |
on a new planet and for reasons we will not go into, | :23:15. | :23:17. | |
spoiler alerts, they wake up early. Wonderful idea, so two strangers | :23:18. | :23:21. | |
facing an eternity together, walking endless corridors, | :23:22. | :23:24. | |
gigantic spaceship, and, breaking into the entertainment | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
facilities, and with their little wristbands, one of the funniest | :23:30. | :23:36. | |
things is the ways in which there is even if no-one else existing, | :23:37. | :23:46. | |
you are still slaves, your life had been formalised | :23:47. | :23:48. | |
before you left Earth. Also this lovely simmering | :23:49. | :23:51. | |
sexual tension between It would have been all right | :23:52. | :23:53. | |
to leave it at that, but there is this derring-do, | :23:54. | :23:57. | |
in the third act, not entirely You can feel moments | :23:58. | :24:00. | |
where it is reaching for some tougher kind of glory, | :24:01. | :24:03. | |
think of something like Alien and wandering the corridors of that | :24:04. | :24:05. | |
spaceship, intensely sinister and threatening place to be, | :24:06. | :24:08. | |
but this place looks pretty nice. I would not mind | :24:09. | :24:11. | |
moving there myself! There are moments when you are shown | :24:12. | :24:13. | |
how jerry-built this craft is, hammering away against things, | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
putting fuses together to get things to work, that ought to have been | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
frightening and made me feel how vulnerable these people are and yet | :24:25. | :24:27. | |
it does not quite do that. There is a wonderful cameo, | :24:28. | :24:33. | |
Michael Sheen plays And you can see that he is | :24:34. | :24:36. | |
struggling with the part, trying to bring more to it | :24:37. | :24:42. | |
than is there on the page, unfortunately, it is not | :24:43. | :24:46. | |
on the page but it is fun. Let's talk about Assassin's Creed, | :24:47. | :24:50. | |
which video game players will be very familiar with, | :24:51. | :24:53. | |
based on the video game. Now they are based on video games(!) | :24:54. | :24:55. | |
this is catastrophic... Nine instalments in this video | :24:56. | :25:05. | |
franchise, one of those movies that has been long in production, | :25:06. | :25:08. | |
lots of re-shoots, rejigs, starring Michael Fassbender, | :25:09. | :25:11. | |
Marion Cotillard, Jeremy Irons, To even begin to describe the plot, | :25:12. | :25:15. | |
I am not sure there is any point! Assassins against Knights Templar, | :25:16. | :25:24. | |
let's take a look. This is the actual one | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
that your father used Your mother's death, | :25:29. | :25:45. | |
not something a boy should ever be So, catastrophic, you said... | :25:46. | :25:57. | |
charitably(!), I am surea lot of people will go | :25:58. | :26:18. | |
to see it nonetheless. Unbelievably incoherent, | :26:19. | :26:21. | |
extraordinary, it is... It opens with three | :26:22. | :26:24. | |
flashbacks, three flashbacks! What a flashback does in a film, | :26:25. | :26:27. | |
someone is standing there and saying, hang on a sec, | :26:28. | :26:30. | |
let me fill you in, and then they do Feels like the movie never starts, | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
then you are in there and you feel I went to the cinema to see this, | :26:35. | :26:43. | |
two people were asleep at the end of the row that I was sitting | :26:44. | :26:49. | |
on, that sums it up. Best movie out at the moment, | :26:50. | :26:52. | |
in your opinion. A Monster Calls, now this | :26:53. | :27:01. | |
is the most extraordinary sell, actually, it is a fantastical | :27:02. | :27:06. | |
terminal illness melodrama Maybe it is not for children, | :27:07. | :27:10. | |
it stars a 12-year-old boy. He's visited by a Yew Tree, | :27:11. | :27:17. | |
over a few evenings, and it is played by Liam Neeson, | :27:18. | :27:24. | |
it has a wonderful shape, Dickensian shape, visited three | :27:25. | :27:31. | |
times to be shown things that may It is a flat-out classic, | :27:32. | :27:34. | |
it has the emotional heft of the Railway Children, | :27:35. | :27:38. | |
moments of Iron Man by Ted Hughes and Pan's Labyrinth, | :27:39. | :27:42. | |
I think it is a masterpiece, go and see it and take | :27:43. | :27:44. | |
all of the family. Featured quite a lot | :27:45. | :27:48. | |
in the Golden Globes nominations. Hell or High Water, | :27:49. | :27:57. | |
Ben Foster and Chris Pine, they play bank robber Brothers, | :27:58. | :28:05. | |
and Jeff Bridges is the Texas Ranger who is tracking them down, | :28:06. | :28:08. | |
which sounds terribly familiar, that kind of plot, and features | :28:09. | :28:10. | |
a great deal in cinema. One of them is on a roll, | :28:11. | :28:13. | |
the other brother is a little too wild, the Texas Ranger is always | :28:14. | :28:17. | |
a step ahead of them. It feels like a movie | :28:18. | :28:20. | |
of the mid-1970s or early 1980s, like Midnight Run, where you come | :28:21. | :28:23. | |
away from it thinking, you will look through the TV | :28:24. | :28:26. | |
listings and think, Hell or High Water is on tonight, | :28:27. | :28:29. | |
unmissable, fantastic! It has slotted into that classic | :28:30. | :28:31. | |
film territory already, Jeff Bridges has been | :28:32. | :28:34. | |
nominated for a Golden Globes for his Best Supporting Actor | :28:35. | :28:40. | |
and he does the most fantastic thing There is a death scene and just | :28:41. | :28:43. | |
in a couple of seconds you see everything that Jeff Bridges | :28:44. | :28:49. | |
can offer as an actor, the way that he absorbs the shock, | :28:50. | :28:54. | |
it is a magical moment, That is it for this week, thank | :28:55. | :28:58. | |
you so much for watching, goodbye. Hello, this is Breakfast, | :28:59. | :29:17. | |

a summary of this morning's main The British Red Cross is warning | :29:24. | :29:25. | |
of a humanitarian crisis in NHS hospitals in England, | :29:26. | :29:33. | |
and is demanding the Government allocates more money | :29:34. | :29:35. | |
to improve social care. Dozens of A departments | :29:36. | :29:37. | |
were forced to divert ambulances to other hospitals last week, | :29:38. | :29:39. | |
while one patient died after spending 35 | :29:40. | :29:41. | |
hours on a trolley. The Royal College of | :29:42. | :29:43. | |

released a report that claims Vladimir Putin personally ordered | :30:18. | :30:25. | |
a cyber-campaign to try and help Donald Trump win the | :30:26. | :30:28. | |

on the findings, Mr Trump said that hacking had had absolutely no impact | :30:30. | :30:32. | |
on the election outcome. His running mate, Mike Pence, | :30:33. | :30:35. | |
says a team will be set up The President-elect has made it very | :30:36. | :30:38. | |
clear that we're going to take aggressive action in the early days | :30:39. | :30:47. | |
of our new administration to combat cyber attacks and protect | :30:48. | :30:50. | |
the security of the American people from this type of | :30:51. | :30:53. | |
intrusion in the future. For the first time, the NHS | :30:54. | :31:03. | |
is providing disabled children with prosthetic limbs that | :31:04. | :31:06. | |
are specially designed for sport. 13-year-old Ben from Brighton | :31:07. | :31:08. | |
was amongst the first to benefit, NHS England says it hopes | :31:09. | :31:11. | |
the programme will allow several 100 children a year to receive limbs, | :31:12. | :31:15. | |

biggest nightclubs reopened last night, ending months | :31:38. | :31:50. | |
of enforced closure. Fabric in central London | :31:51. | :31:52. | |

after agreeing to a raised entry age I wonder if those people are home | :31:57. | :32:19. | |
yet. Mike is here with the sport. A big weekend, FA Cup. One of those | :32:20. | :32:28. | |
special weekends of the year. I love trying to pick whether big upsets | :32:29. | :32:33. | |
are going to be. He and Arsenal, Bournemouth, Southampton and Crystal | :32:34. | :32:39. | |
Palace will be travelling nervously. The potential for an upset, the | :32:40. | :32:44. | |
lowest ranked team is Star Bridge, and they go to weaken today. Bobby | :32:45. | :32:50. | |
Gould, who won the cup in 1988, his grandson is in goal today. All those | :32:51. | :33:00. | |
coaches criss-crossing the country. A lot of players will be wondering | :33:01. | :33:04. | |
if it is Baird Bay to be on the back page. | :33:05. | :33:14. | |
FA Cup third round weekend got under way, with Manchester City the first | :33:15. | :33:17. | |
side through to round four, thanks to a 5-0 thrashing handed out | :33:18. | :33:21. | |
City were already out of sight by half-time, | :33:22. | :33:24. | |
leading 3-0, thanks to an own goal, a Yaya Toure penalty, | :33:25. | :33:27. | |
The gloss on an impressive night was added by John Stones. | :33:28. | :33:31. | |
The England defender scored his first goal since a summer | :33:32. | :33:34. | |
He needed goal-line technology to confirm that he had actually | :33:35. | :33:37. | |
Hopefully it can help us to make our players are levers, that they are | :33:38. | :33:47. | |
good enough to play every game, and try, in both our fans and the people | :33:48. | :33:52. | |
in Manchester City. And they can believe that we are good. They know | :33:53. | :33:56. | |
what happened in the past, but we are good guys. So they run a lot, | :33:57. | :34:02. | |
fight a lot, playing good. But they have to believe. | :34:03. | :34:17. | |
It will be a special FA Cup reunion today for one of the members | :34:18. | :34:21. | |
of the treble-winning Manchester United team of 1999. | :34:22. | :34:23. | |
Former Netherlands centre-half Jaap Stam is now the manager | :34:24. | :34:25. | |
of championship side Reading, who go to Old Trafford hunting | :34:26. | :34:28. | |
As a player, there is nothing better to play over there, in a stadium | :34:29. | :34:36. | |
like that in front of so many fans. And we know as well, we have our own | :34:37. | :34:40. | |
fans over there as well. Hopefully they are joining in and supporting | :34:41. | :34:41. | |
us. Non-League Barrow are playing | :34:42. | :34:42. | |
Rochdale and non-league Eastleigh travel to Championship | :34:43. | :34:46. | |
side Brentford. Sir Andy Murray, will play world | :34:47. | :34:47. | |
number two Novak Djokovic in the final of | :34:48. | :35:06. | |
the Qatar Open today. Murray beat Czech Tomas Berdych | :35:07. | :35:08. | |
in straight sets in their semi final, to reach his | :35:09. | :35:11. | |
fourth final in Doha. The win was Murray's, | :35:12. | :35:18. | |
28th in a row on the ATP Tour, and another title and victory | :35:19. | :35:21. | |
over his main rival, would be the ideal preparation | :35:22. | :35:25. | |
for the Australian Open. May be at the beginning of the year | :35:26. | :35:36. | |
you are focusing a little bit more on yourself and how you are playing | :35:37. | :35:40. | |
on how you want to play, moving into the Aussie Open, rather than just | :35:41. | :35:41. | |
solely focusing on the outcome. Newcastle Falcons produced | :35:42. | :35:47. | |
a stunning late comeback to beat Bath 24-22 in rugby | :35:48. | :35:50. | |
union's Aviva Premiership. Bath led by 12 points halfway | :35:51. | :35:54. | |
through the second half, but Ben Harris barged his way over | :35:55. | :35:57. | |
to draw Newcastle level, Man of the match Joel Hodgson, | :35:58. | :36:00. | |
kept his nerve to slot home the conversation, and send Bath | :36:01. | :36:05. | |
to their third defeat in a row. Scarlets also came from behind, | :36:06. | :36:08. | |
to beat Ulster 16-13, was on the receiving | :36:09. | :36:14. | |
end of a high tackle, Elsewhere, Leinster beat Zebre, | :36:15. | :36:22. | |
and Newport Gwent Dragons beat Tour de France champion Chris Froome | :36:23. | :36:26. | |
says he turned down the chance, to use a Therapeutic | :36:27. | :36:40. | |
Use Exemption in 2015 The exemption allows | :36:41. | :36:42. | |
athletes to take medication would normally be banned, and | :36:43. | :36:48. | |
although Froome had used them twice in the past, when given | :36:49. | :36:51. | |
the option two years ago, They basically said that your | :36:52. | :36:59. | |
condition is severe enough that you could use one, and I didn't feel as | :37:00. | :37:05. | |
if having a TUE in the last week of the Tour de France was something | :37:06. | :37:09. | |
that I was prepared to... It just didn't sit well morally with me, but | :37:10. | :37:13. | |
that was something I was going to do. | :37:14. | :37:21. | |
Earlier we saw how Sir Andy Murray got on. | :37:22. | :37:23. | |
This afternoon Sir Mo Farah is in action at the Edinburgh Cross | :37:24. | :37:27. | |
The four-time Olympic champion, who insists he's happy just to be | :37:28. | :37:31. | |
called Mo, was surprisingly beaten into second place last year. | :37:32. | :37:34. | |
He is using the event as part of his preparation, | :37:35. | :37:37. | |
for the track World Championships, in London later this year, | :37:38. | :37:40. | |
and admits he'll have his work cut out against some cross country | :37:41. | :37:43. | |
It is going to be tough, they will try and put me down and beat me as | :37:44. | :37:53. | |
quick as possible. I am not going to come out there and go I am not going | :37:54. | :37:58. | |
to... I will fight for it, but it suits certain athletes better, and | :37:59. | :38:02. | |
it is going to be tough. I think it might be. | :38:03. | :38:03. | |
He was training with his beloved that Arsenal, giving Wenger a bit of | :38:04. | :38:09. | |
a helping hand. There could be one less team, | :38:10. | :38:16. | |
on the grid for the new Formula 1 season, after Manor Racing went | :38:17. | :38:20. | |
into administration. Manor finished last | :38:21. | :38:22. | |
in the championship last year, and have failed to find | :38:23. | :38:24. | |
new investment needed to carry The team went into administration | :38:25. | :38:27. | |
two years ago, when they were known as Marussia, with | :38:28. | :38:32. | |
debts of ?35 million, Now as the big teams enter | :38:33. | :38:34. | |
the FA Cup this weekend, I am sure we will see some | :38:35. | :38:45. | |
silky skills on display, but none as spectacular as those | :38:46. | :38:48. | |
performed by players in the sport It's been one of Asia's biggest | :38:49. | :38:51. | |
sports for centuries and now it's It is Asia's best kept secret, the | :38:52. | :39:04. | |
sport that has been part of the culture in countries like Malaysia | :39:05. | :39:13. | |
since the 15th century. Combining football skills with the moves of | :39:14. | :39:18. | |
kung fu. And now, sepak takraw is taking off in the UK as well. It is | :39:19. | :39:28. | |
linking the martial art or the art of the body with this game, because | :39:29. | :39:32. | |
you need to have the agility, flexibility and things like that. | :39:33. | :39:36. | |
First of all, you are learning the basics of keeping up, really. And it | :39:37. | :39:41. | |
can be fought, head... It does hurt, I can tell you that, a little bit, | :39:42. | :39:47. | |
because... Look at that. That is beautiful skill. Let me show you, | :39:48. | :39:51. | |
this ball is quite hard, it is plastic now. Slightly softer than | :39:52. | :39:57. | |
the original ones, which were made of rattan, but it cause too many | :39:58. | :40:03. | |
injuries. If you play football, death further you can play this game | :40:04. | :40:07. | |
as well. So it is football meets volleyball and has now spread across | :40:08. | :40:10. | |
the world. And who better to recruit for the new esteem forming this year | :40:11. | :40:13. | |
than freestyle football world recordholder John Farnworth. Now, | :40:14. | :40:24. | |
the size of the ball was a surprise. But he took it in his stride. It | :40:25. | :40:47. | |
seems to me more power. Hey! In matches it is only three aside and | :40:48. | :40:51. | |
you only have three touches per team before it has to go over the net. So | :40:52. | :40:56. | |
there we are, we serve, the game is in play. Red shot. You do have set | :40:57. | :41:01. | |
positions. The server, the feeder and the striker. An acrobatic smash | :41:02. | :41:07. | |
at the net. And this can take some practice. Servers should know their | :41:08. | :41:14. | |
place. The flexibility these guys possessed is incredible. They are | :41:15. | :41:17. | |
getting their legs way above their head. It is like what Ibrahim of -- | :41:18. | :41:30. | |
Ibrahimovich does. If I can do it, so can you. And if we win the point, | :41:31. | :41:35. | |
the celebration. It has got to be worth it for that. | :41:36. | :41:38. | |
They also encourage you to count in Malaysian, so I used to do one, two, | :41:39. | :41:46. | |
three in Malaysian. But I have forgotten it. You are surprisingly | :41:47. | :41:51. | |
agile for a man of your experience. We will see you again later. | :41:52. | :41:58. | |
From the damage they can cause to your car to the safety risk | :41:59. | :42:01. | |
they pose to cyclists no-one likes a pothole and there are warnings | :42:02. | :42:05. | |
this morning that the problem is getting worse. | :42:06. | :42:07. | |
A survey of 400 councils in England and Wales estimates that the repair | :42:08. | :42:10. | |
bill could reach ?14 billion by 2019. | :42:11. | :42:12. | |
Peter Fleming is from the Local Government Association | :42:13. | :42:14. | |
and joins us from our studio in Tunbridge Wells. | :42:15. | :42:21. | |
Thank you for joining us on a Saturday morning. The figure for the | :42:22. | :42:27. | |
cost of these repairs, ?14 billion is a huge amount. A couple of people | :42:28. | :42:31. | |
have disputed it. How did you come up with a? It is ?12 billion at the | :42:32. | :42:36. | |
moment and the rate of increase that we are seeing, it will easily top | :42:37. | :42:41. | |
?14 billion by 2019. I think the issue is that this is about a | :42:42. | :42:47. | |
backlog from many, many years of government underinvestment in what | :42:48. | :42:51. | |
is known as local roads, which in fact a 97% of the road network in | :42:52. | :42:58. | |
this country. So all the money goes on the major roads, the motorways | :42:59. | :43:02. | |
and that kind of thing. So the government is in charge of what is | :43:03. | :43:06. | |
known as National roads, that is 3% of the total road network. They | :43:07. | :43:11. | |
spend about ?1.1 million per mile on keeping those up to scratch, and | :43:12. | :43:15. | |
give councils ?27,000 a mile for everything else. You know that the | :43:16. | :43:21. | |
big bugbear people have with this is that when potholes are... If you are | :43:22. | :43:25. | |
lucky enough for them to be repaired, when they are filled it is | :43:26. | :43:29. | |
quite often a bit of a hatchet job are not long-term repair so it | :43:30. | :43:31. | |
doesn't solve the problem ultimately. Absolutely, and this is | :43:32. | :43:35. | |
what we are saying. All the councils can do, and they are doing one | :43:36. | :43:38. | |
pothole every 15 seconds in this country we are repairing, but we are | :43:39. | :43:46. | |
just catching it up. We have been absolutely honest about that. That | :43:47. | :43:49. | |
is all we can do. We need major investment in this country in the | :43:50. | :43:52. | |
road structure, in infrastructure. And stopping this sort of patch and | :43:53. | :43:56. | |
mend mentality, and giving us enough money to actually replace some of | :43:57. | :43:59. | |
these local roads that desperately need proper money spent on them. | :44:00. | :44:04. | |
What is causing the problems? Is it simply road use getting more | :44:05. | :44:09. | |
expensive, more cars on the road, heavier cars? I think it is a | :44:10. | :44:13. | |
mixture of lots of things. It is the historical backlog of government | :44:14. | :44:16. | |
underfunding of the road network, coupled with increased traffic, | :44:17. | :44:23. | |
weather, the fact that a patch the road is not as good as a new road, | :44:24. | :44:27. | |
clearly the patch is a weak point in the road -- a patched road. We could | :44:28. | :44:33. | |
save money in the long-term if money was spent on the local government | :44:34. | :44:37. | |
network. It is very easy to blame on underfunding when this is a council | :44:38. | :44:40. | |
responsibility and perhaps councils haven't been efficient enough in | :44:41. | :44:44. | |
dealing with this in the past. As I said, we are repairing a pothole | :44:45. | :44:49. | |
every 15 seconds. Councils are being innovative about the way they repair | :44:50. | :44:52. | |
roads but frankly the government does fund road repairs. They are not | :44:53. | :44:56. | |
finding it at the level that it needs to be. Councils have got | :44:57. | :45:01. | |
competing necessities. They have seen their budgets reduced on | :45:02. | :45:05. | |
average by about 40% over the last few years. You know, there are | :45:06. | :45:09. | |
increasing costs in other areas, such as adult social care. So it is | :45:10. | :45:14. | |
not a council issue. The government funds the road network, and we are | :45:15. | :45:22. | |
saying if we use 2p out of the current fuel duty we could solve | :45:23. | :45:26. | |
this problem. Thank you very much, Peter Fleming. It is one of those | :45:27. | :45:31. | |
things which is deeply irritating to many motorists. Get in touch if you | :45:32. | :45:34. | |
have been affected, if your vehicle has been damaged, if your bike has | :45:35. | :45:38. | |
been damaged, if you have been injured as a result. | :45:39. | :45:42. | |
You can tweet about the stories we show today using our hash tag or | :45:43. | :45:54. | |
followers online. The potholes are weather-related. C what Helen has in | :45:55. | :45:59. | |
store for us this weekend. I am worried you will not see any | :46:00. | :46:05. | |
potholes this morning in some parts of the country. It is murky out | :46:06. | :46:13. | |
there. Just a word of caution, really, for the Cheshire Plain. It | :46:14. | :46:23. | |
is murky in many areas with a lot of cloud of Scotland and Northern | :46:24. | :46:28. | |
Ireland but largely crossed free for the certainly so in the south where | :46:29. | :46:33. | |
the temperature is about 15 degrees higher than this time yesterday. It | :46:34. | :46:37. | |
does not necessarily feel that much warmer users will not have to scrape | :46:38. | :46:42. | |
your cars this morning. A weak weather fronts a lot of misty cloud | :46:43. | :46:47. | |
and it's fairly widespread light rain and drizzle. Damp and grey out | :46:48. | :46:51. | |
their but gradually through the day that rain and drizzle will ease the | :46:52. | :46:55. | |
way, lingering in the south-west. For the most part it is dry and best | :46:56. | :47:00. | |
chance for bright weather will be the stump parts of Scotland | :47:01. | :47:03. | |
north-east England. Leaden skies to much of the day at. Temperatures up | :47:04. | :47:10. | |
on recent days that you can will fill chilly with a blanket cloud. | :47:11. | :47:15. | |
That we could have the positive of arresting falling temperature so | :47:16. | :47:18. | |
overnight it will be frost free except perhaps the blend of | :47:19. | :47:22. | |
north-east Scotland. But will again be a really great one tomorrow | :47:23. | :47:26. | |
morning for most of us. The improvement, I suppose, without our | :47:27. | :47:29. | |
the front across the south-west there is a better chance of bright | :47:30. | :47:34. | |
weather and there will be some breaks in the cloud here and there. | :47:35. | :47:39. | |
Not ruling out but, unfortunately, not guaranteed. It looks cloudy for | :47:40. | :47:44. | |
all of the FA Cup third round matches today and tomorrow. In fact | :47:45. | :47:47. | |
there will be a be drizzle around today. Temperatures are just | :47:48. | :47:50. | |
creeping above average for this time of year in early January. We are | :47:51. | :47:55. | |
doing quite well because just across the Channel at the moment there is | :47:56. | :47:58. | |
the potential for icy conditions in freezing rain across on the low | :47:59. | :48:01. | |
country and look at these temperatures for tomorrow across the | :48:02. | :48:06. | |
likes of Moscow. -20 five. Bitterly cold at the moment across that part | :48:07. | :48:12. | |
of Europe. That air will stay stagnant next few days. As to the UK | :48:13. | :48:18. | |
it is far more mobile into next week which means more wind and more rain. | :48:19. | :48:24. | |
Look at those temperatures. -11! Take care, Helen. | :48:25. | :48:27. | |
We're back with the headlines at seven o clock. | :48:28. | :48:30. | |
First, let's get all the latest technology news with Spencer Kelly | :48:31. | :48:57. | |
Right, let's get 2017 started in style, shall we? | :48:58. | :49:00. | |
Lots of people queuing for photos of a sign. | :49:01. | :49:12. | |
A motorcycle vest with built-in airbag? | :49:13. | :49:17. | |
Every January, Las Vegas hosts the massive Consumer Electronics | :49:18. | :49:26. | |
Show, and if you have a product to launch, | :49:27. | :49:30. | |
And that's why I am being followed by a drone, | :49:31. | :49:36. | |
specifically, the hover camera Passport drone. | :49:37. | :49:38. | |
First one I have seen which follows you not by tracking a signal | :49:39. | :49:42. | |
from your mobile phone, but instead by locking on to a face | :49:43. | :49:45. | |
You can tell it which face to follow by tapping on it in the accompanying | :49:46. | :49:52. | |
And the latest version will let you scan and upload your face | :49:53. | :50:00. | |
to the drone so it can find and recognise you automatically. | :50:01. | :50:06. | |
The theory is that you then don't need the phone at all. | :50:07. | :50:09. | |
The drone knows and loves your face, just like a loyal puppy. | :50:10. | :50:15. | |
And, with guarded blades and sensors underneath to help it steer clear | :50:16. | :50:19. | |
of obstacles, it certainly seems safe and light enough to fly | :50:20. | :50:22. | |
in amongst other people, or indeed to grab it out of the air | :50:23. | :50:25. | |
Unbelievably, CES is now in its 50th year, and in that time it's got | :50:26. | :50:35. | |
The show has spread beyond the walls of the Las Vegas Convention Centre | :50:36. | :50:47. | |
to the surrounding hotels, and we have seen all sorts of ideas | :50:48. | :50:51. | |
The event might have grown, but the technology, | :50:52. | :50:59. | |
The TV screens have got so thin that they blend into the walls, | :51:00. | :51:05. | |
so thin you can peel them on and off. | :51:06. | :51:10. | |
And in amongst the major companies are a number of tiny companies. | :51:11. | :51:15. | |
Marc has been checking some of them out. | :51:16. | :51:24. | |
Most people understand that if I do this with my fingers it means | :51:25. | :51:28. | |
However, if I am wearing this strap when I make that gesture my hand | :51:29. | :51:34. | |
becomes part of the telephone itself and can send and receive calls. | :51:35. | :51:37. | |
The strap has a little body conducting unit in here which sends | :51:38. | :51:43. | |
vibrations down my hand and when I stick my finger | :51:44. | :51:46. | |
in my ear, they become amplified sound. | :51:47. | :51:51. | |
There is a microphone just in the strap there, | :51:52. | :51:53. | |
The finished thing looks like a normal watch strap and can be | :51:54. | :52:02. | |
Now, when you want to hang up, that's simplicity itself. | :52:03. | :52:07. | |
All you've got to do is take your hand away | :52:08. | :52:10. | |
Health is once again a big theme here at CES. | :52:11. | :52:14. | |
And, whilst more people than ever are following gluten-free, | :52:15. | :52:16. | |
dairy-free or other sorts of specialist diets, | :52:17. | :52:24. | |
they don't necessarily need to be unless they've had | :52:25. | :52:26. | |
And that's something that this device aims to overcome by helping | :52:27. | :52:30. | |
people create the perfect diet for their own personal digestive | :52:31. | :52:33. | |
Air connects via bluetooth, and its mission is to miniaturise | :52:34. | :52:40. | |
a breath test that gastroenterologists have been | :52:41. | :52:42. | |
It analyses reaction to various forms of carbohydrate, | :52:43. | :52:48. | |
This is based on the idea that, if you consume a food that you can't | :52:49. | :52:56. | |
break down, then it will ferment in the gut, and from that point | :52:57. | :52:59. | |
chemicals will disperse into the bloodstream. | :53:00. | :53:03. | |
That blood will be making its way into the lungs, and then | :53:04. | :53:06. | |
when you breathe out you'll be able to analyse how well that food | :53:07. | :53:09. | |
So, once it learns what works for you, it should be able to help | :53:10. | :53:16. | |
you customise your diet as the finished app's food database | :53:17. | :53:19. | |
indicates how likely you are to react to any given food. | :53:20. | :53:24. | |
So, if you find the answer, all that's left to do is actually | :53:25. | :53:27. | |
stick to the lifestyle and diet you need to. | :53:28. | :53:31. | |
This year's big theme at CES was cars. | :53:32. | :53:38. | |
And, as always, it's often the most outrageous concepts that grab | :53:39. | :53:42. | |
Rinspeed has previously proposed a car with its own deployable drone. | :53:43. | :53:50. | |
Well, now it's got one that has a space-age cockpit, | :53:51. | :53:53. | |
with more glass than a greenhouse, which is quite fortunate because it | :53:54. | :53:57. | |
Yes, that's a garden in the dashboard. | :53:58. | :54:04. | |
Well, so you get a nice smell when you're driving, | :54:05. | :54:07. | |
of course, and you can even take part of it | :54:08. | :54:10. | |
Don't forget to switch the fan on, so you get that lovely whiff. | :54:11. | :54:15. | |
Actually, a lot of the more serious car stuff is happening in small | :54:16. | :54:19. | |
steps, incrementally, so it's harder to grab the headlines. | :54:20. | :54:24. | |
That said, Marc Cieslak has just been for a couple | :54:25. | :54:27. | |
There's a certain German car-maker that boasts of building | :54:28. | :54:37. | |
But here at CES 2017, most of the motor manufacturers seem | :54:38. | :54:42. | |
intent on building the ultimate self-driving machine. | :54:43. | :54:49. | |
It isn't just motor manufacturers that are showing off | :54:50. | :54:53. | |
They're doing it with the help of tech companies, as well. | :54:54. | :54:59. | |
This vehicle is fitted with a system called BB8, | :55:00. | :55:01. | |
which has been created by NVIDIA, a company most famous | :55:02. | :55:05. | |
for manufacturing high-end graphics chips. | :55:06. | :55:09. | |
Artificial intelligence software which learns helped by sensors have | :55:10. | :55:11. | |
trained BB8 to be able to make driving decisions. | :55:12. | :55:18. | |
Here, an obstacle has just appeared in the route | :55:19. | :55:20. | |
that we were going to take to get to the other end of this track. | :55:21. | :55:24. | |
The car has decided that they'd better not drive into that obstacle, | :55:25. | :55:27. | |
Driving around a car park is one thing but how do these autonomous | :55:28. | :55:32. | |
Electronic supplier Delphi has partnered with driver assistance | :55:33. | :55:38. | |
and sensor outfit Mobileye and created a mini fleet | :55:39. | :55:40. | |
of autonomous Audi SUVs which are driving around | :55:41. | :55:45. | |
There are 24 different sensors spread out across the body of this | :55:46. | :55:51. | |
car which allow it to drive autonomously and what I am struck | :55:52. | :55:57. | |
by is that you don't notice any of them. | :55:58. | :56:00. | |
You can't really see any of those sensory devices. | :56:01. | :56:02. | |
This car is an indicator, if you like, of how autonomous | :56:03. | :56:06. | |
vehicles will look in the future, which is pretty much like any car | :56:07. | :56:09. | |
Those sensors include lidar, radar, and cameras all around the vehicle. | :56:10. | :56:19. | |
Here, we can see what the car sees through them. | :56:20. | :56:22. | |
Identifying other vehicles as well as pedestrians, | :56:23. | :56:27. | |
and behaving accordingly, as it weaves its way through traffic. | :56:28. | :56:30. | |
So, I'm a rear passenger in the back of this self-driving car. | :56:31. | :56:33. | |
And so far zero dramas, apart from looking forward | :56:34. | :56:36. | |
and noticing that the driver doesn't have his hands | :56:37. | :56:38. | |
I could be forgiven for thinking that I am actually being driven | :56:39. | :56:43. | |
The thing is, we've been driving around in prototype self-driving | :56:44. | :56:48. | |
How long is it going to be before cars like this are available | :56:49. | :56:55. | |
There is quite a wide consensus among the industry that 2021 | :56:56. | :56:59. | |
is the time where the technology will be ready, and after a number | :57:00. | :57:04. | |
of years where society will start gaining confidence in this kind | :57:05. | :57:08. | |
of technology, then society would be at the point where the driver can be | :57:09. | :57:12. | |
With that 2021 goal in mind, Mobileye announced that, | :57:13. | :57:17. | |
in partnership with BMW and Intel, it will be testing 40 autonomous | :57:18. | :57:20. | |
vehicles on real American and European roads in the second | :57:21. | :57:27. | |
Autonomous automobiles are most definitely on their way. | :57:28. | :57:36. | |
Now, if you are someone who preferS the wind to be rushing | :57:37. | :57:39. | |
through your hair, CES also offers plenty for riders | :57:40. | :57:44. | |
This is surely the most fun you can have on a beach | :57:45. | :57:55. | |
The Super 73 is an electric bike that can hold enough charge | :57:56. | :58:01. | |
Its top speed is 27mph, which on Newport Beach is certainly | :58:02. | :58:06. | |
Don't press on it just yet and you have the two | :58:07. | :58:15. | |
The bike was funded via Kickstarter, where it raised almost $500,000, | :58:16. | :58:28. | |
and now each bike is being carefully crafted here in Orange County | :58:29. | :58:32. | |
We have every machine needed to create an entire bike. | :58:33. | :58:36. | |
There's some days where we have got, you know, 30, 40 bikes being welded | :58:37. | :58:40. | |
That's to ensure that everything is done properly, | :58:41. | :58:44. | |
safely, and will hold up for a lifetime. | :58:45. | :58:47. | |
The batteries in these things are getting more affordable, | :58:48. | :58:51. | |
they're getting lighter, so it means at CES this year we're | :58:52. | :58:54. | |
seeing a host of interesting ways to help us get around. | :58:55. | :58:57. | |
Chinese company LeEco unveiled these bikes. | :58:58. | :59:04. | |
They're powered by normal pedals, but they have the Android mobile | :59:05. | :59:07. | |
operating system built in so you can track your progress. | :59:08. | :59:10. | |
And then there is things like the Movpack. | :59:11. | :59:12. | |
This is a regular backpack, that with one movement you can turn | :59:13. | :59:16. | |
it into an electric skateboard, that's actually easier to ride | :59:17. | :59:22. | |
But it's perhaps more futuristic ideas like this one from Honda that | :59:23. | :59:27. | |
This concept car is more about having something that | :59:28. | :59:34. | |
you don't necessarily own, but you kind of just call it up | :59:35. | :59:37. | |
whenever you need a vehicle to pop to the shops or do some | :59:38. | :59:41. | |
It will drive itself to you, pick you up, and when you are done | :59:42. | :59:45. | |
with it you can just let it go itself. | :59:46. | :59:50. | |
And we will have to stop the CES coverage right there, | :59:51. | :59:53. | |
because this is the short cut of Click. | :59:54. | :59:55. | |
In the meantime, you can follow us on Twitter. | :59:56. | :00:02. | |
Thank you very much for watching, and we will see you soon. | :00:03. | :00:29. | |
Hello, this is Breakfast, with Rachel Burden and Jon Kay. | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
The British Red Cross warns of a humanitarian crisis in NHS | :00:33. | :00:34. | |
The charity says the Government needs to provide more money | :00:35. | :00:40. | |
It is after dozens of A departments were forced to divert | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
Good morning, it is Saturday 7 January. | :00:45. | :01:03. | |
Also ahead: An American army veteran has been arrested after five people | :01:04. | :01:06. | |
were shot dead at Fort Lauderdale airport in Florida. | :01:07. | :01:14. | |
Donald Trump promises to look at ways of combating future cyber | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
attacks on US elections, after a briefing from intelligence | :01:18. | :01:19. | |
A bump in the road - councils predict a huge rise | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
in the repair bill for potholes in England and Wales. | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
We will meet the schoolboy putting his new running blade | :01:27. | :01:28. | |
into action, as children in England are given sporting prosthetics | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
In sport, it is a stroll for City in the FA Cup, | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
as Manchester City put five past West Ham United to go | :01:37. | :01:39. | |
Good morning. It is grey and murky out there, with some fog around, | :01:40. | :01:58. | |
especially over the hills. But in contrast to yesterday, nowhere near | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
as cold. I will have all the details for the weekend in around 15 | :02:03. | :02:04. | |
minutes. Join me if you can. First, our main story: | :02:05. | :02:06. | |
The British Red Cross is warning of a humanitarian crisis in NHS | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
hospitals in England, and is demanding the Government | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
allocates more money Dozens of A departments | :02:14. | :02:15. | |
were forced to divert ambulances The Royal College of | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
Emergency Medicine says the system is on its knees, but the Department | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
of Health says it is investing more Winter pressure on accident | :02:23. | :02:26. | |
and emergency, nothing new. But the Red Cross says it | :02:27. | :02:33. | |
amounts to a crisis. The charity claims social care cuts | :02:34. | :02:49. | |
mean patients are sent home without the right support, | :02:50. | :02:52. | |
so they end up back in A Red Cross volunteers support NHS | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
staff, and say they have seen patients sent home without clothes, | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
some who don't receive the care they need to get washed, | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
even some who have fallen and not A staff recognise | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
the problems as well. I think the pressures on the NHS, | :03:05. | :03:13. | |
and especially in emergency care, is particularly | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
intense at the moment. But what is a concern | :03:17. | :03:18. | |
is the patients who have been managed within four hours, | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
and then the delays for admission into the hospital bed base, | :03:22. | :03:23. | |
which unfortunately Our staff | :03:24. | :03:25. | |
are working under some pretty intolerable conditions, | :03:26. | :03:33. | |
at times, trying to manage. And sometimes they | :03:34. | :03:35. | |
just can't manage. Figures from NHS England show that | :03:36. | :03:37. | |
overflowing A departments had to close their doors to new patients | :03:38. | :03:39. | |
more than 140 times over Compare that with the | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
same month in 2015. The suspicion is it's a combination | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
of the cuts that we've seen in social care, in community | :03:47. | :03:57. | |
services run by the NHS, and very heavy pressure | :03:58. | :03:59. | |
on general practice. So is the strain on | :04:00. | :04:01. | |
the NHS costing lives? The deaths of two patients | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
on emergency trolleys at Worcestershire Royal Hospital | :04:05. | :04:06. | |
are being investigated. One of them had waited | :04:07. | :04:08. | |
35 hours for a bed. The Department of Health says | :04:09. | :04:10. | |
it is providing billions more every NHS England says plans are in place | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
to deal with the extra demand. Beds are actually not quite as full | :04:14. | :04:19. | |
as they were this time last year, but everyone in the Health Service | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
knows things could get worse before We will have more on this story | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
later in the programme. We will be speaking | :04:28. | :04:34. | |
to Dr Mark Holland from the Society Police in Florida have been | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
questioning a man after five people were killed and eight injured | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
in a shooting at Fort Lauderdale The suspect opened fire | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
in the baggage claim area after seemingly retrieving his | :04:45. | :04:52. | |
weapon from his luggage. The FBI says it is pursuing | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
all leads, and hasn't ruled out Our correspondent, Gary O'Donoghue, | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
reports from Fort Lauderdale. It is a familiar scene | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
at airports the world over, but the baggage claim hall | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
at the Fort Lauderdale Airport turned into a place of death | :05:07. | :05:10. | |
and mayhem, as a lone gunman opened fire on those waiting | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
to collect their luggage. Passengers scattered for cover, | :05:15. | :05:16. | |
hitting the ground, and reports say the assailant had time to reload | :05:17. | :05:19. | |
before opening fire once again, as attempts were made | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
to attend to the wounded. Once he was done with ammunition, | :05:23. | :05:38. | |
he threw the gun down, and I was about ten | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
feet away from him. He basically through the gun | :05:42. | :05:43. | |
onto the ground and laid on the ground face | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
down, spreadeagled. The gunman has been named | :05:47. | :05:48. | |
as 26-year-old Esteban Santiago. Reports say he was carrying | :05:49. | :05:50. | |
a military ID and had a weapon in his checked baggage, | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
which is legal in the United States. One family member said he had been | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
receiving psychological treatment after leaving the National | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
Guard last year. This cowardly, heinous act resulted | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
in the deaths of five people. There were eight more people | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
injured by way of gunshot, that were transported | :06:08. | :06:10. | |
to local hospitals. In his first reaction | :06:11. | :06:12. | |
to the shooting, President Obama said he was heartbroken | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
for the families. These kinds of tragedies have | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
happened too often during the eight The FBI says it is ruling nothing | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
out, including terrorism. But the agency has confirmed it had | :06:23. | :06:29. | |
prior contact with Santiago in November, when he was referred | :06:30. | :06:35. | |
for a mental health assessment. The ease with which he was able | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
to transport and use a weapon in an airport will raise serious | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
concerns about public safety. We can join Gary outside | :06:43. | :06:48. | |
Fort Lauderdale International Gary, this story has been | :06:49. | :06:50. | |
developing overnight. Lets pick up on the point you made | :06:51. | :07:00. | |
at the end of your peace. Lots of people in the UK will be alarmed and | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
astonished to hear that you can carry your weapon in baggage and | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
just pick it up at reclaim in the States. How does it work? Well, it | :07:09. | :07:18. | |
is legal to transport a firearm in your checked baggage here in the | :07:19. | :07:21. | |
United States. There are restrictions. You have to declare it | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
to the airline when you arrive. It has to be locked inside a hard case. | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
It has to be unloaded. You can carry ammunition with it, and of course | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
that means once you get to baggage claim at the other end you can get | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
it. It seems what happened here is Santiago did go and get his | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
semiautomatic out of his case, out of his bag, go back into the baggage | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
hall and start shooting pretty indiscriminately. And I think it | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
will raise questions even here. These shootings are not infrequent | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
here as window in the United States, and there will be calls for gun | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
control, and there will be pushed back from the gun lobby. That is a | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
pretty familiar dance. But I think what people will wonder is, look, we | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
put all this security in place when people are going into the airport. | :08:12. | :08:14. | |
Should it be quite so easy for somebody to get it out of their bag | :08:15. | :08:19. | |
at the other end and still be in the airport and be able to cause this | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
much death and mayhem. Thank you very much indeed. | :08:25. | :08:25. | |
US intelligence officials have released a report that claims | :08:26. | :08:28. | |
Vladimir Putin personally ordered a cyber campaign to try and help | :08:29. | :08:30. | |
Donald Trump win the presidential election. | :08:31. | :08:32. | |
Last night, after being briefed on the findings, Mr Trump said that | :08:33. | :08:35. | |
hacking had absolutely no impact on the election result, | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
but promised to set up a team to stop future attacks, | :08:39. | :08:41. | |
The report from American intelligence claims | :08:42. | :08:52. | |
Russia's President, Vladimir Putin, personally ordered what it called | :08:53. | :08:54. | |
an influence campaign to help Donald Trump's chances of winning | :08:55. | :08:57. | |
The President-elect had earlier described the Russian hacking claims | :08:58. | :09:05. | |
as a political witch-hunt by his opponents. | :09:06. | :09:07. | |
At Trump Tower, he met America's top intelligence officials | :09:08. | :09:10. | |
They say Russia's actions included hacking into the e-mail accounts | :09:11. | :09:17. | |
of the Democratic National Committee and top Democrats, and using | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
intermediaries such as WikiLeaks to release the information. | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
Russia has previously denied this, and WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange | :09:25. | :09:26. | |
has said before that Moscow is not the source. | :09:27. | :09:33. | |
After the briefing, Mr Trump did not single out Russia. | :09:34. | :09:35. | |
And the incoming vice president says the US | :09:36. | :10:02. | |
The President-elect has made it very clear that we're going to take | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
aggressive action in the early days of our new administration to combat | :10:07. | :10:09. | |
cyber attacks and protect the security of the American people | :10:10. | :10:12. | |
from this type of intrusion in the future. | :10:13. | :10:19. | |
Donald Trump said he had tremendous respect for the work and service | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
done by those in the US intelligence community. | :10:24. | :10:25. | |
But, with two weeks to go until he moves into the White House, | :10:26. | :10:28. | |
questions remain over how they will all work together to keep | :10:29. | :10:31. | |
The repair bill to fix the country's potholes could soon | :10:32. | :10:39. | |
That is according to councils in England and Wales, | :10:40. | :10:45. | |
who say the Government should pay for the repairs from fuel duty. | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
The Government says it us already putting ?250 million into fixing | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
the problem, but the Local Government Association says | :10:53. | :10:54. | |
that is not enough, as Duncan Kennedy reports. | :10:55. | :10:59. | |
Councils fix 2 million potholes every year. | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
That is about 12,000 for every local authority in England and Wales. | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
Now, the councils claim the repair bill could soon reach ?14 billion. | :11:07. | :11:17. | |
Hard-pressed councils, who are mending, you know, | :11:18. | :11:24. | |
a pothole every five seconds in this country, | :11:25. | :11:26. | |
just cannot get to the core of the problem, which is actually | :11:27. | :11:30. | |
many of our roads are just being patched now. | :11:31. | :11:32. | |
The councils say the Government must do more to help, | :11:33. | :11:41. | |
and suggest increasing fuel duty by a couple of pence a litre, | :11:42. | :11:44. | |
a figure they say the public would support. | :11:45. | :11:46. | |
But it is not just the cost of repairing all these potholes that | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
Today's report also found that the time it is taking appears | :11:51. | :11:54. | |
to be on the rise as well, going up from ten years in 2006 | :11:55. | :11:58. | |
Last year, the Government announced a ?250 million pothole repair fund | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
to help 100 councils fixed 4 million potholes. | :12:03. | :12:10. | |
But today's report by local councils suggest that is not enough, | :12:11. | :12:13. | |
and that the pothole problem is actually getting worse. | :12:14. | :12:22. | |
Michelle Obama has delivered her final speech as First Lady | :12:23. | :12:25. | |
of the United States, with an impassioned call on young | :12:26. | :12:28. | |
people to have hope and fight for their rights. | :12:29. | :12:30. | |
Speaking at a ceremony in the White House, she ended | :12:31. | :12:33. | |
tearfully, saying the role of First Lady had been the greatest | :12:34. | :12:36. | |
Empower yourselves with a good education, then get out there and | :12:37. | :12:47. | |
use that education to build a country worthy of your boundless | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
promise. Lead by example, with hope. Never fear. And know that I will be | :12:52. | :12:58. | |
with you, rooting for you, and working to support you for the rest | :12:59. | :13:04. | |
of my life. So I want to close today by simply saying thank you. Thank | :13:05. | :13:07. | |
you for everything you do for our kids and for our country. Being your | :13:08. | :13:12. | |
first lady has been the greatest honour of my life, and I hope I have | :13:13. | :13:15. | |
made you proud. There was a lot of Facebook chatter | :13:16. | :13:25. | |
a week ago saying that she was considering standing in some kind of | :13:26. | :13:28. | |
political role. I think there would be huge support for her, but not | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
straightaway. Definitely support from the lady behind you, gearing | :13:34. | :13:35. | |
up! Patients sent home without clothes, | :13:36. | :13:38. | |
others suffering falls and not being found for days, | :13:39. | :13:40. | |
still more not washed because there is no carer | :13:41. | :13:43. | |
there to help them. That is the damning | :13:44. | :13:45. | |
indictment on the NHS from the British Red Cross, | :13:46. | :13:47. | |
which has called the resulting strain on hospitals in England | :13:48. | :13:50. | |
a humanitarian crisis. Let's speak now to Dr Mark Holland | :13:51. | :13:52. | |
from the Society for Acute Medicine. Humanitarian crisis? It is a strong | :13:53. | :14:16. | |
term. It is probably not 1 million miles away from the truth. I think | :14:17. | :14:21. | |
we've been predicting that we would face a winter from hell. I think | :14:22. | :14:25. | |
that time has arrived. I think we saw the last two Winters being very | :14:26. | :14:31. | |
bad. We know that we have got record numbers of people in hospital beds | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
who are fit to go home but there is no social care to get them out of | :14:36. | :14:39. | |
hospital. Therefore when people arrive at hospital there is a bed | :14:40. | :14:43. | |
available for them to go into. And we have seen over the last week or | :14:44. | :14:47. | |
so that people who should be in a speciality bed are ending up in a | :14:48. | :14:51. | |
non- speciality bed, or there are beds being created in the hospital, | :14:52. | :14:56. | |
what we call contingency beds. And the people I speak to across the | :14:57. | :15:00. | |
country, e-mails I have received this week and things I have been | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
reading in the media make us conclude that probably the term | :15:05. | :15:07. | |
humanitarian crisis has some validity to it. It is very strong | :15:08. | :15:12. | |
words, as you say. There are obviously some hospitals which are | :15:13. | :15:15. | |
getting it right, which are managing to link up with social services, | :15:16. | :15:19. | |
which are getting people out of hospitals and into good care. Why is | :15:20. | :15:23. | |
that not being practised everywhere? I think it is being practised | :15:24. | :15:26. | |
everywhere but I think that the structures across the country are | :15:27. | :15:33. | |
different so we know that there are some organisations where hospitals, | :15:34. | :15:36. | |
acute care settings and social care are lined up in a proper, managerial | :15:37. | :15:40. | |
structure. And that is the right thing to do. Why is that not | :15:41. | :15:43. | |
happening everywhere? I don't know why it is not happening everywhere | :15:44. | :15:46. | |
but it should be happening everywhere. Absolutely it should be | :15:47. | :15:49. | |
happening everywhere and no one should deny that that is the case. | :15:50. | :15:52. | |
The government says there is more money going on, the systems should | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
be working. They deny it is a humanitarian crisis but they say we | :15:57. | :15:59. | |
shouldn't be in a situation where there are these kinds of problems. | :16:00. | :16:02. | |
The point we have reached at the moment over the Christmas and New | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
Year period that they are describing as the humanitarian crisis is a | :16:07. | :16:13. | |
build-up of what has been going on for a while. So as we went into this | :16:14. | :16:20. | |
autumn it was 6000 people to the discharge, and although they say | :16:21. | :16:23. | |
that there is more money going into the system, I think there is some | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
debate about how those figures are actually quoted, and that quite | :16:28. | :16:30. | |
often money is moved from one Budget to another Budget. So for example a | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
couple of years ago we had the better care fund, where money was | :16:35. | :16:38. | |
taken from the acute sector to give to the social care sector. And in | :16:39. | :16:42. | |
different areas, so for example we are based here in the north-west, in | :16:43. | :16:46. | |
Manchester, and actually you have got lots of people in this part of | :16:47. | :16:50. | |
the world who have quite significant health issues of a day-to-day basis. | :16:51. | :16:53. | |
So across the country, the actual distribution of health and | :16:54. | :16:59. | |
healthiness isn't the same. And if you get to areas where you get more | :17:00. | :17:03. | |
stress on the system, that is going to put more stress on particular | :17:04. | :17:06. | |
areas at particular times of more stress. | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
What about the role of families in all of this to support people | :17:12. | :17:18. | |
leaving hospital? At the moment I look after and 89-year-old father | :17:19. | :17:22. | |
who was in hospital for six weeks. To trigger social care was the | :17:23. | :17:28. | |
devil's work. When you get your hands on social care and if you are | :17:29. | :17:32. | |
paying for it yourself it can often not always be that affordable for | :17:33. | :17:38. | |
people. I think families do play a part but apparently about half of | :17:39. | :17:46. | |
the people who are nonprofessional carers have significant health | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
problems of their own. Many people will think that yes, we get pinned | :17:52. | :17:54. | |
points in the winter because the weather is bored and people fall in | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
flippin' you get flu outbreaks in that kind of thing but it has not | :17:59. | :18:02. | |
been particularly cold and there have been no major flu epidemics. | :18:03. | :18:06. | |
Why this year? Why humanitarian crisis right now? Because we have | :18:07. | :18:11. | |
struggled over the last couple of years and we have had a buildup in | :18:12. | :18:15. | |
the number of people who are medically fit for discharge from | :18:16. | :18:18. | |
hospital. We have many people are now acute hospices at the moment who | :18:19. | :18:23. | |
do not need to be in those beds because they need social care. And | :18:24. | :18:26. | |
you say this is overwhelmingly the reason that is going on? I think it | :18:27. | :18:32. | |
is the big reason. It gives us a win to stress that we face every year | :18:33. | :18:36. | |
and everyone in the NHS will get stressed every year. But this year | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
it has come to a point where we have so few beds in the system to bring | :18:42. | :18:45. | |
people into that it has gotten to a tipping point which we have | :18:46. | :18:48. | |
predicted a long time. Thank you very much. We have had a few cold | :18:49. | :18:56. | |
stunts but a lot of foggy weather as well. Quite murky out there and if | :18:57. | :19:01. | |
you look quite carefully you can just about make out Helen against | :19:02. | :19:05. | |
the light. Good morning. Good morning. Yes, this was sent in from | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
a weather Watch are already out and about this morning. Thank you. Just | :19:11. | :19:14. | |
to convey the fact that it is very murky out there. This is | :19:15. | :19:18. | |
Staffordshire. We are concerned about the extent of the fog, | :19:19. | :19:25. | |
particularly church, Lancashire. Down to 100 metres. A significant | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
motorway network in that part of the country so it is likely to cause | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
some issues and it could well have an impact on the airports as well. | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
Further south, the remnants of a weather front or around. So it is | :19:38. | :19:43. | |
damp and murky it is quite damp across southern parts of the country | :19:44. | :19:47. | |
and that rain and drizzle will take awhile to die away. Possibly | :19:48. | :19:50. | |
lingering for the day. Then we have met and mist across north-west of | :19:51. | :19:54. | |
England. Further north still it is grey and cloudy. Slightly better | :19:55. | :19:59. | |
chance at seeing a little bit of brightness coming through across the | :20:00. | :20:04. | |
eastern side and north-eastern parts of England but on the whole we have | :20:05. | :20:09. | |
a blanket cloud cover. It could be grey. In contrast to yesterday when | :20:10. | :20:13. | |
temperatures reached about miners six, they are currently at eight or | :20:14. | :20:18. | |
nine at the moment. The sunshine will not have much influence but | :20:19. | :20:22. | |
eight or 10 degrees is up on what we have been seeing. A little bit above | :20:23. | :20:27. | |
average. It will not feel that much warmer because of the cloud but not | :20:28. | :20:31. | |
as bitter as it has been. As we go through the evening and overnight | :20:32. | :20:35. | |
the benefit of the cloud is that the temperature will not fall. We should | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
largely, largely beef frost free. It could be cold in the glance of | :20:41. | :20:43. | |
Scotland but there is increasing weather front coming through here in | :20:44. | :20:47. | |
the latter part of tomorrow. As the breeze strengthens although it would | :20:48. | :20:51. | |
be misty murky to start the day I am hopeful that the increasing breeze | :20:52. | :20:54. | |
that will help to break it up a little bit, particularly in the | :20:55. | :20:58. | |
north of the country and allow some brightness to come through. Again, | :20:59. | :21:01. | |
the second half of the weekend for most of us seems cloudy although I | :21:02. | :21:05. | |
not like to rule out the odd limb of sunshine from time to time. Usable | :21:06. | :21:09. | |
weather, dry and relatively mild compared to what we have had and | :21:10. | :21:13. | |
compared with the rest of Europe where we have potential freezing | :21:14. | :21:16. | |
rain through today across the low countries. That cold air vent | :21:17. | :21:19. | |
tomorrow really stagnates. In fact it is that today is well but it is | :21:20. | :21:22. | |
stagnating across central and eastern parts of Europe. As the cold | :21:23. | :21:26. | |
area will stay across Eastern Europe. Wetter and windy weather | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
heading our way into next week. That will clear the fog we but for the | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
meantime, largely dry but murky. We hope we will see you through the | :21:35. | :21:36. | |
morning despite the fog. Donald Trump says he's had | :21:37. | :21:39. | |
a constructive meeting with American intelligence officials, | :21:40. | :21:42. | |
who've released a report saying Russia was behind a series of cyber | :21:43. | :21:43. | |
attacks designed to influence The President-elect insists | :21:44. | :21:46. | |
the hacking played no part in his victory, but says he'll | :21:47. | :21:50. | |
appoint a team to devise ways of combating any | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
future interference. Let's remind ourselves what's been | :21:55. | :21:58. | |
happening over the last 18 months. Back in September 2015, | :21:59. | :22:01. | |
An FBI agent found a Russian-linked In July 2016, Wikileaks released | :22:02. | :22:06. | |
private e-mails from Democratic officials just days before | :22:07. | :22:18. | |
the National Convention. In October 2016, The FBI and the CIA | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
announce they believe the Russian government was behind the hacking, | :22:23. | :22:25. | |
and their aim was to interfere So what does Donald | :22:26. | :22:32. | |
Trump think of it all? Well, he's made it clear he doesn't | :22:33. | :22:37. | |
believe intelligence chiefs, tweeting only this week: | :22:38. | :22:39. | |
The "Intelligence" briefing on so-called "Russian hacking" | :22:40. | :22:41. | |
was delayed until Friday, perhaps more time | :22:42. | :22:43. | |
needed to build a case. And less than 24-hours before that | :22:44. | :22:46. | |
briefing one of his top intelligence advisers - former CIA | :22:47. | :22:54. | |
director James Woolsey - They were able to come up with the | :22:55. | :23:07. | |
identities of the intermediary is between the Russian government and | :23:08. | :23:10. | |
the people who did some of the hacking. They did not have that | :23:11. | :23:16. | |
before. And that, I think, was one thing that got the attention of a | :23:17. | :23:18. | |
lot of people including me. Dr Leslie Vinjamuri from the US | :23:19. | :23:19. | |
and the Americas Programme at Chatham House joins us now | :23:20. | :23:22. | |
from our London newsroom. Thank you very much for your time. | :23:23. | :23:29. | |
Let us look at the evidence here for Russian involvement in all of this. | :23:30. | :23:34. | |
The CAI and the FBI, the National Security agency believes this was | :23:35. | :23:37. | |
directed not just from Moscow but from Vladimir Putin himself. Looking | :23:38. | :23:41. | |
across the report that we have all been able to see there is not much | :23:42. | :23:47. | |
evidence of that. Well, remember that those are very considerable | :23:48. | :23:49. | |
problems always her intelligence which is how much can you declassify | :23:50. | :23:53. | |
and put into the public domain without putting at risk your sources | :23:54. | :23:57. | |
and/or methods? And the report is very clear that, of course, the | :23:58. | :24:02. | |
information that they are ultimately relying on for the high confidence | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
they express cannot be declassify. The report is thorough, pointed and | :24:08. | :24:11. | |
clear in its findings but you are correct, there is a lot of | :24:12. | :24:15. | |
information that is simply not there because it cannot be declassified. | :24:16. | :24:19. | |
Tell us more about the influence campaign they describe. They are | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
various means that alleged to have been used by the Russians to | :24:25. | :24:28. | |
influence on the outcome of the election. There are cyber attacks in | :24:29. | :24:33. | |
which they successfully got into the probity malls and the e-mail is of | :24:34. | :24:38. | |
many top party officials in the credit National committee as well as | :24:39. | :24:42. | |
Hillary Clinton's campaign manager, John Podesta. And then there is what | :24:43. | :24:46. | |
they refer to as an influence campaign which was aimed at putting | :24:47. | :24:49. | |
the information, this information into the public domain to try and | :24:50. | :24:55. | |
undermine the public's face in the electoral process. There were trolls | :24:56. | :25:01. | |
who were targeting particular individuals who were seen as being | :25:02. | :25:04. | |
putting information out against Russian interests. And so there was | :25:05. | :25:09. | |
a very broad and sustained campaign over the course of many months to | :25:10. | :25:13. | |
really shake the information that the public had access to, and the | :25:14. | :25:18. | |
United States especially. We now know there was all sorts of fake and | :25:19. | :25:23. | |
false news being bandied around on all sorts of social media outlets | :25:24. | :25:27. | |
that were not necessarily connected to this particular Russian campaign | :25:28. | :25:30. | |
is alleged by American security services but the critical question | :25:31. | :25:34. | |
is did this impact on the outcome of the election? On added appeaser is | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
no conclusion. Remember, the point of the report is not to contest the | :25:40. | :25:44. | |
electoral results. The point is to say that there is confirmed evidence | :25:45. | :25:47. | |
of a high level of confidence that the integrity of the electoral | :25:48. | :25:53. | |
process has been hampered, that individuals, that the end of e-mail | :25:54. | :25:57. | |
was hacked and that there was a clear violation of cyberspace. Cyber | :25:58. | :26:03. | |
attacks are crucial and very secure, a very clear risk to any democracy | :26:04. | :26:10. | |
when it comes to protecting the electoral process. Briefly, how does | :26:11. | :26:14. | |
the President-elect deal with this now? You cannot seem to be at odds | :26:15. | :26:19. | |
with the security services client he? And I think this is one of the | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
concerns for the state of affairs and now which is that Donald Trump, | :26:24. | :26:26. | |
even before he was briefed yesterday in late afternoon had really gone on | :26:27. | :26:31. | |
the attack without seeing the intelligence. He has rejected the | :26:32. | :26:35. | |
idea that he needs daily intelligence briefings as this | :26:36. | :26:39. | |
information is come out when President Obama initially issued | :26:40. | :26:44. | |
sanctions against Russia. His instinct has been to take it | :26:45. | :26:47. | |
personally, to go on the attack against the intelligence community. | :26:48. | :26:51. | |
This is deeply problematic, considering that this is a man who | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
very soon will be president of the United States of America who will be | :26:56. | :27:01. | |
in a position to rely on the intelligence agencies and a healthy | :27:02. | :27:04. | |
degree of scepticism is wise but as was said in the committee hearings, | :27:05. | :27:10. | |
disparagement is something altogether very different. This is, | :27:11. | :27:14. | |
I think, a very useful way of characterising what the | :27:15. | :27:16. | |
President-elect has been doing, which is to disparage the integrity | :27:17. | :27:21. | |
and undermine the confidence, try to undermine the confidence in the | :27:22. | :27:24. | |
intelligence agencies across the United States. Thank you very much. | :27:25. | :27:29. | |
It is extraordinary when you read the report, it is like a work of | :27:30. | :27:33. | |
fiction almost. And as soon as he stopped tweeting about that he | :27:34. | :27:37. | |
started tweeting about the new series of the presence. In the | :27:38. | :27:41. | |
ratings having dropped from when he did the show. -- new series of the | :27:42. | :27:43. | |
apprentice. For the first time, the NHS | :27:44. | :27:44. | |
is providing disabled children with prosthetic limbs, that | :27:45. | :27:46. | |
are specially designed for sport. NHS England says it hopes to equip | :27:47. | :27:50. | |
several 100 children a year with the limbs, to allow them | :27:51. | :27:53. | |
to participate in more sport. Here's our Health | :27:54. | :27:56. | |
correspondent Robert Pigott. How have you been doing since you | :27:57. | :28:05. | |
had your leg? When Ben Moore made the decision at the age of ten to | :28:06. | :28:08. | |
have the stunted right leg amputated, his dream of a future in | :28:09. | :28:12. | |
sport seemed remote. Would you like to put it on for me? Three years on, | :28:13. | :28:18. | |
he is one of the first children to receive a running blade on the NHS. | :28:19. | :28:22. | |
As if he were changing issue, he can swap his false leg for the blade and | :28:23. | :28:27. | |
feel a new freedom and energy. This spring is the bit that makes me go | :28:28. | :28:32. | |
faster. I used to not be able to, like, be able to run as fast or able | :28:33. | :28:38. | |
to kick a ball as well. But now I have a good amount of power in my | :28:39. | :28:42. | |
leg and I have got the right size. So I can do loads of skills and hit | :28:43. | :28:50. | |
a ball really well. The blade in the treatment cost around ?1000. But | :28:51. | :28:55. | |
Clare Johnson, the expert in prosthetic limbs says the NHS will | :28:56. | :28:58. | |
more than recoup the cost by keeping children active. We hope that will | :28:59. | :29:03. | |
give them a level playing field so that he can compete with his peers | :29:04. | :29:07. | |
and be able to participate in a lot more sport. It does help in the | :29:08. | :29:11. | |
wider scheme of things and, hopefully, give a longer longevity | :29:12. | :29:17. | |
to their lives by giving them the opportunity to do sport. Ben is | :29:18. | :29:24. | |
among 2500 children in England limbs that are either absent or do not | :29:25. | :29:29. | |
work properly. The NHS hopes to fit several 100 of them with a sport | :29:30. | :29:32. | |
prosthetic every year. The scheme not only opens the way to sport for | :29:33. | :29:37. | |
a group of disabled youngsters but comes with an added message. At a | :29:38. | :29:41. | |
time when so many teenagers are couch potatoes, it makes an example | :29:42. | :29:44. | |
of an extraordinary few who have overcome all the odds to carve a | :29:45. | :29:50. | |
life in sport. A new blade for me can do a lot more than my prosthetic | :29:51. | :29:57. | |
can do. Now I can run with more freedom. His mother says that | :29:58. | :30:00. | |
running blade can change a disabled child's whole outlook on life. He | :30:01. | :30:06. | |
seems more confident and more eager to get out and about. He is wanting | :30:07. | :30:15. | |
to put it on and go out more and do more sport, do more activity. Now he | :30:16. | :30:20. | |
has the blade, the sky is the limit. Ben says he is now training for the | :30:21. | :30:26. | |
Paralympics. He is aiming for 2020 for the very least. 2020? Who knows. | :30:27. | :30:34. | |
He will be there, surely. Bound to be. Coming up for the end of the | :30:35. | :30:40. | |
programme. Two years ago he was running boot camps in his local | :30:41. | :30:41. | |
park. Now Joe Wicks is a publishing | :30:42. | :30:43. | |
and social media sensation. He'll be here to give us his recipe | :30:44. | :30:45. | |
for success just before ten. Hello, this is Breakfast | :30:46. | :30:49. | |
with Jon Kay and Rachel Burden. Coming up before 8:00am, | :30:50. | :31:39. | |
Helen will have the weather. But first, at 7:30am, | :31:40. | :31:42. | |
a summary of this morning's main The British Red Cross is warning | :31:43. | :31:45. | |
of a humanitarian crisis in NHS hospitals in England, | :31:46. | :31:49. | |
and is demanding the Government allocates more money | :31:50. | :31:51. | |
to improve social care. Dozens of A departments | :31:52. | :31:53. | |
were forced to divert ambulances to other hospitals last week, | :31:54. | :31:56. | |
while one patient died after spending 35 | :31:57. | :31:58. | |
hours on a trolley. The Department of Health says | :31:59. | :32:00. | |
it is investing more money But Dr Mark Holland from the Society | :32:01. | :32:03. | |
for Acute Medicine says that it has And we have seen over the last week | :32:04. | :32:25. | |
or so that people who should be in a speciality bed | :32:26. | :32:34. | |
are ending up in a non-speciality bed, or there are beds being created | :32:35. | :32:36. | |
in the hospital, And the people I speak | :32:37. | :32:39. | |
to across the country, e-mails I have received this week | :32:40. | :32:43. | |
and things I have been reading in the media make us conclude that | :32:44. | :32:46. | |
probably the term humanitarian Police in Florida have been | :32:47. | :32:49. | |

all leads and hasn't ruled out US intelligence officials have | :33:14. | :33:16. | |
released a report that claims Vladimir Putin personally ordered | :33:17. | :33:20. | |
a cyber campaign to try and help Donald Trump win the | :33:21. | :33:23. | |
presidential election. Last night, after being briefed | :33:24. | :33:24. | |
on the findings, Mr Trump said that hacking had had absolutely no impact | :33:25. | :33:28. | |
on the election outcome. His running mate, Mike Pence, | :33:29. | :33:30. | |

saddened by the death of the whale, which was thought | :33:48. | :33:50. | |
to be 36 years old. Those are the main | :33:51. | :33:55. | |
stories this morning. loads more to come. Thank you for | :33:56. | :34:05. | |
joining us. It is time for the sport. A big weekend, and Mike is | :34:06. | :34:12. | |
warming his hands. I am on the tea leaves, trying to predict where the | :34:13. | :34:18. | |
FA Cup upsets are going to be. Some saying Preston and Bolton, some | :34:19. | :34:22. | |
saying the north-west. It is a bag, what are you talking about? There is | :34:23. | :34:29. | |
too much water in it. Somewhere there will be an upset. Some player | :34:30. | :34:34. | |
will be making the back players tomorrow. Mystic mike. A new career. | :34:35. | :34:48. | |
Sam Allardyce going back to his old club. | :34:49. | :34:50. | |
FA Cup third round weekend got under way, with Manchester City the first | :34:51. | :34:54. | |
side through to round four, thanks to a 5-0 thrashing handed out | :34:55. | :34:57. | |
City were already out of sight by half-time, | :34:58. | :35:00. | |
leading 3-0, thanks to an own goal, a Yaya Toure penalty, | :35:01. | :35:03. | |
The gloss on an impressive night was added by John Stones. | :35:04. | :35:08. | |
The England defender scored his first goal since a summer | :35:09. | :35:10. | |
He needed goal-line technology to confirm that he had actually | :35:11. | :35:14. | |
Hopefully it can help us to make our players believers, | :35:15. | :35:18. | |
that they are good enough to play every game, and try, | :35:19. | :35:21. | |
in both our fans and the people in Manchester City, and they can | :35:22. | :35:24. | |
They know what happened in the past, but we are good guys. | :35:25. | :35:29. | |
So they run a lot, fight a lot, playing good. | :35:30. | :35:31. | |
It will be a special FA Cup reunion today for one of the members | :35:32. | :35:47. | |
of the treble-winning Manchester United team of 1999. | :35:48. | :35:49. | |
Former Netherlands centre-half Jaap Stam is now the manager | :35:50. | :35:52. | |
of championship side Reading, who go to Old Trafford hunting | :35:53. | :35:54. | |
As a player, there is nothing better than to play over there, | :35:55. | :36:02. | |
in a stadium like that in front of so many fans. | :36:03. | :36:05. | |
And we know, as well, we have our own fans over | :36:06. | :36:08. | |
Hopefully they are joining in and supporting us. | :36:09. | :36:15. | |
Non-League Barrow are playing Rochdale, and non-League Eastleigh | :36:16. | :36:19. | |
travel to Championship side Brentford. | :36:20. | :36:21. | |
Sir Andy Murray will play world number two Novak Djokovic | :36:22. | :36:34. | |
in the final of the Qatar Open today. | :36:35. | :36:36. | |
Murray beat Czech Tomas Berdych in straight sets in their semi-final, | :36:37. | :36:39. | |
The win was Murray's 28th in a row on the ATP Tour, | :36:40. | :36:44. | |
and another title and victory over his main rival would be | :36:45. | :36:47. | |
the ideal preparation for the Australian Open. | :36:48. | :36:49. | |
We played at the end of last year. The ultimate goal was to find a way | :36:50. | :37:05. | |
to win the match. Maybe at the beginning of the year | :37:06. | :37:06. | |
you are focusing a little bit more on yourself, and how | :37:07. | :37:10. | |
you are playing, and how you want to play, moving | :37:11. | :37:12. | |
into the Aussie Open, rather than just solely | :37:13. | :37:15. | |
focusing on the outcome. Newcastle Falcons produced | :37:16. | :37:21. | |
a stunning late comeback to beat Bath 24-22 in rugby | :37:22. | :37:23. | |
union's Aviva Premiership. Bath led by 12 points halfway | :37:24. | :37:25. | |
through the second half, but Ben Harris barged his way over | :37:26. | :37:28. | |
to draw Newcastle level, Man of the match Joel Hodgson, | :37:29. | :37:31. | |
kept his nerve to slot home the conversation and send Bath | :37:32. | :37:36. | |
to their third defeat in a row. Scarlets also came from behind, | :37:37. | :37:39. | |
to beat Ulster 16-13, Scarlets scrum-half Aled Davies | :37:40. | :37:49. | |
was on the receiving end of a high tackle as he tried | :37:50. | :37:56. | |
to cross the line. Elsewhere, Leinster beat Zebre, | :37:57. | :37:58. | |
and Newport Gwent Dragons beat Earlier we saw how | :37:59. | :38:01. | |
Sir Andy Murray got on. This afternoon, Sir Mo Farah | :38:02. | :38:14. | |
is in action at the Edinburgh The four-time Olympic champion, | :38:15. | :38:17. | |
who insists he is happy just to be called Mo, was surprisingly beaten | :38:18. | :38:20. | |
into second place last year. He is using the event as part | :38:21. | :38:23. | |
of his preparation for the track World Championships in London | :38:24. | :38:27. | |
later this year, and admits he will have his work cut out | :38:28. | :38:29. | |
against some cross-country Them guys will try and hunt me down | :38:30. | :38:32. | |
and beat me as quick as possible. That is what makes cross-country | :38:33. | :38:44. | |
exciting. I am not going to come | :38:45. | :38:51. | |
out there and go, oh, I will fight for it, | :38:52. | :38:56. | |
but it suits certain athletes Now, as the big teams enter | :38:57. | :39:00. | |
the FA Cup this weekend, I am sure we will see some | :39:01. | :39:12. | |
silky skills on display, but none as spectacular as those | :39:13. | :39:15. | |
performed by players in the sport It has been one of Asia's biggest | :39:16. | :39:19. | |
sports for centuries, It is Asia's best-kept secret, | :39:20. | :39:22. | |
the sport that has been part of the culture in countries | :39:23. | :39:30. | |
like Malaysia since the 15th century, combining football skills | :39:31. | :39:32. | |
with the moves of kung fu. And now, sepak takraw is taking | :39:33. | :39:35. | |
off in the UK as well. It is linking the martial art, | :39:36. | :39:45. | |
or the art of the body, with this game, because you need | :39:46. | :39:48. | |
to have the agility, First of all, you are learning | :39:49. | :39:51. | |
the basics of kicking up, really. It does hurt, I can tell you that, | :39:52. | :39:58. | |
a little bit, because... This ball is quite hard, | :39:59. | :40:06. | |
it is plastic now. Slightly softer than the original | :40:07. | :40:15. | |
ones, which were made of rattan, If you play football, | :40:16. | :40:19. | |
therefore you can play this So it is football meets volleyball, | :40:20. | :40:22. | |
and has now spread across the world. And who better to recruit | :40:23. | :40:28. | |
for the newest team forming this year than freestyle football world | :40:29. | :40:31. | |
recordholder John Farnworth. Now, the size of the | :40:32. | :40:44. | |
ball was a surprise. In matches it is only three a side, | :40:45. | :40:46. | |
and you only have three touches per team, before it has | :40:47. | :41:10. | |
to go over the net. You do have set positions, | :41:11. | :41:13. | |
the server, the feeder The flexibility these guys | :41:14. | :41:20. | |
possess is incredible. They are getting their legs | :41:21. | :41:37. | |
way above their head. It is like what Zlatan | :41:38. | :41:40. | |
Ibrahimovic does. And if we win the point, | :41:41. | :41:41. | |
the celebration. So three touches, and the way to do | :41:42. | :42:08. | |
it is to count to three in Malay. I need to bring the ball in and show | :42:09. | :42:14. | |
you how hard at how small it is. I think they have one of those at | :42:15. | :42:18. | |
home, my husband used to live in Indonesia so we have one of those in | :42:19. | :42:23. | |
the house. I think what we need is met. High kicks around the TV! With | :42:24. | :42:27. | |
or without the ball is. Have the cold and dark January | :42:28. | :42:31. | |
nights left you craving sunshine? If the answer is yes, | :42:32. | :42:34. | |
you are not alone. Today is predicted to be | :42:35. | :42:36. | |
the busiest day of the year It is being dubbed Sunshine | :42:37. | :42:39. | |
Saturday, with over 27,000 of us But is it really | :42:40. | :42:43. | |
the best day to book? The Independent's travel editor | :42:44. | :42:55. | |
Simon Calder and Alistair Rowland from Co-operative | :42:56. | :42:58. | |
Travel join us now. Good morning. Sunshine, it doesn't | :42:59. | :43:10. | |
feel like Sunshine Sunday looking at the weather forecast but you are | :43:11. | :43:14. | |
going to be busy. Yes, it is a perfect day. We like the fog, we | :43:15. | :43:22. | |
don't like the snow. Today 1.5% of all transactions happen, so it is a | :43:23. | :43:27. | |
great day for booking. Is it something as simple as the weather | :43:28. | :43:31. | |
impact on sales, as people look at the window and think another grade | :43:32. | :43:36. | |
a? I think it is an odd thing that largely the stock which is available | :43:37. | :43:40. | |
has been on sale since last May. -- grey day. It is today people think | :43:41. | :43:46. | |
about it more and today is the biggest single day. You notice the | :43:47. | :43:52. | |
adverts on TV, and if we are booking or thinking of booking is this a | :43:53. | :43:56. | |
good time to do it, to get deals, or are they cashing in on the fact that | :43:57. | :44:00. | |
we are desperate to go somewhere? Well, a bit of both, really. It is a | :44:01. | :44:05. | |
great day if you're selling holidays, and there are some good | :44:06. | :44:11. | |
deals out there. The thing is, of course, that if you are constrained | :44:12. | :44:14. | |
to travel during the school holidays, then price is basically | :44:15. | :44:17. | |
doubled compared with term time. And if you know the resort you want to | :44:18. | :44:22. | |
go to, the property you want to go to, you may well find that there is | :44:23. | :44:26. | |
a really good deal out there. You have to make sure that you are | :44:27. | :44:29. | |
counting all the extra costs, if they are charging you extra for | :44:30. | :44:33. | |
baggage and so on, worked that out. But do be slightly sceptical. When | :44:34. | :44:37. | |
they say free child places you might find they are only available at the | :44:38. | :44:41. | |
very tail end of August or that the price has gone up. And talking about | :44:42. | :44:46. | |
the discounts you will be offered, unlike a car or a camera you can't | :44:47. | :44:50. | |
say that is how much the holiday should cost. Holidays are very fluid | :44:51. | :44:55. | |
pricing so it can come up as well as down. If you are tempted by a low | :44:56. | :44:59. | |
deposit, and with credit card bills coming in who wouldn't be, bear in | :45:00. | :45:02. | |
mind that if you subsequently decide to cancel the trip holiday company | :45:03. | :45:06. | |
will come after you for the full deposit so even if you don't get | :45:07. | :45:09. | |
your holiday there will be asking you for more money. Have you got any | :45:10. | :45:13. | |
idea of the average spend for a family on holiday these days? The | :45:14. | :45:18. | |
average price for a holiday somewhere between ?450 and ?500 per | :45:19. | :45:22. | |
person but that is spread across the year. It tends to be much higher in | :45:23. | :45:25. | |
the school holidays and significantly lower in term time. | :45:26. | :45:30. | |
People say the travel industry are so greedy, that is not the case. | :45:31. | :45:34. | |
Most companies lose money during the term times and they only make it up | :45:35. | :45:36. | |
during the school holidays. What you say to that? There will so | :45:37. | :45:47. | |
people, millions of families who feel like they are being done over. | :45:48. | :45:51. | |
Balking earlier is better than booking late. Particularly this year | :45:52. | :45:57. | |
and last year. Western Mediterranean resorts are filling up. So to get | :45:58. | :46:02. | |
the right room, the right hotel, you need to book early. I think | :46:03. | :46:06. | |
particularly this year, the deals you can get with low deposits are | :46:07. | :46:11. | |
really good for the consumer. People should take advantage while they | :46:12. | :46:14. | |
have the opportunity. It will be more expensive later. You have a | :46:15. | :46:19. | |
couple of places, a couple hot destinations this year? Spain is | :46:20. | :46:25. | |
always doing well. So was Portugal. Greece is doing quite better as | :46:26. | :46:30. | |
well. In the long haul, Cuba, Mexico, the Caribbean. Thank you | :46:31. | :46:37. | |
very much. We will ask you some more questions a bit later so if you have | :46:38. | :46:41. | |
any questions or want some advice then get in touch. We don't need to | :46:42. | :46:48. | |
go anywhere, do it? No, not what we have beautiful weather like we have | :46:49. | :46:49. | |
here. That was almost convincing Helen. | :46:50. | :46:57. | |
Wonderful Weather Watcher picture. We just picked this one up. This is | :46:58. | :47:04. | |
from Dudley and these are drizzled drops coming down captured in the | :47:05. | :47:07. | |
camera. Although we look weather this weekend, the cloud is sick | :47:08. | :47:13. | |
because it sunk down to give us for. A little damp in places. Obviously | :47:14. | :47:17. | |
the fog is the main concern of you are travelling there could be | :47:18. | :47:20. | |
disruption to airport travel as well. Freezing rain and icy | :47:21. | :47:23. | |
conditions across the low countries so if you travel further afield | :47:24. | :47:26. | |
check with your travel operator because it is quite nasty with icy | :47:27. | :47:31. | |
conditions. Temperatures are considerably higher than they were | :47:32. | :47:34. | |
this time yesterday by some 15 degrees in places. It does not | :47:35. | :47:38. | |
necessarily feel that much warmer but you will not be scraping ice | :47:39. | :47:44. | |
from cars. In the south was drizzly rain, remnants of a weather front | :47:45. | :47:47. | |
elsewhere. Just the thickness of the cloud in the fog where you are. It | :47:48. | :47:51. | |
is not foggy everywhere but it is great. There will be brightness | :47:52. | :47:54. | |
eventually breaking through the rain and drivel from the -- drizzle could | :47:55. | :48:04. | |
linger. Once the fog clears through the Vale of York we may see | :48:05. | :48:08. | |
brightness east of the Pennines. Temperatures is eight to ten, well | :48:09. | :48:12. | |
up on yesterday. He won't feel that much milder just because we have let | :48:13. | :48:16. | |
in disguise for the most part. Through the evening and overnight | :48:17. | :48:20. | |
that is to our benefit. It stops the temperature from falling so most | :48:21. | :48:23. | |
places will be frost free overnight tonight. Again, really quite murky. | :48:24. | :48:31. | |
We do not lose the cloud. Again we will end up with fog on Sunday | :48:32. | :48:34. | |
morning. The second part of the weekend looks just as cloudy for | :48:35. | :48:40. | |
most of us. There will be strengthening winds in Scotland | :48:41. | :48:43. | |
later on and as a result of that weather front moving away from the | :48:44. | :48:46. | |
south-west, marginally brighter and drier here as well and temperatures | :48:47. | :48:50. | |
will still be above where they should be at this time of year. The | :48:51. | :48:55. | |
cold has not gone far. Over in Europe there is bitter weather at | :48:56. | :48:58. | |
the moment. Minus 20s across the western side of Russia. Do spare a | :48:59. | :49:04. | |
thought for those sitting in those countries, it is bitterly cold. So | :49:05. | :49:12. | |
for our ideal destination, we will not be going to Sarajevo. Not today. | :49:13. | :49:17. | |
Unless you like the cold. Cuba is then. We will be back with the | :49:18. | :49:23. | |
headlines at the top of the hour. First of all it is time for News | :49:24. | :49:25. | |
watch. Hello and welcome to the first | :49:26. | :49:28. | |
Newswatch of 2017 with me, Samira Ahmed, where we'll be | :49:29. | :49:31. | |
rounding up some of the comments you've made about BBC News | :49:32. | :49:34. | |
since we went off air before Coming up: Jill Saward died this | :49:35. | :49:40. | |
week, but should the BBC News website have described her | :49:41. | :49:44. | |
in its headline as a campaigner And the year of celebrity deaths | :49:45. | :49:47. | |
ended with several more, Did the BBC lose perspective over | :49:48. | :49:51. | |
the extent of its coverage? First, the New Year has brought no | :49:52. | :50:03. | |
respite from the terrorist attacks that have become a regular | :50:04. | :50:06. | |
feature of news broadcasts. On Sunday came the latest atrocity, | :50:07. | :50:08. | |
targeting those enjoying a night out NEWS READER: Less than two | :50:09. | :50:11. | |
hours into the New Year, a gunman opened fire outside, | :50:12. | :50:18. | |
bullets ricocheting as he shot Another camera showed people | :50:19. | :50:23. | |
cowering as the attacker struck, Inside, his killing spree continued, | :50:24. | :50:28. | |
Turks and foreigners murdered, others jumping into the freezing | :50:29. | :50:34. | |
Bosphorus to escape. 39 people have died in the attack | :50:35. | :50:37. | |
and the coverage of it raised questions we have heard before | :50:38. | :50:43. | |
from Newswatch viewers Now, how much TV news coverage did | :50:44. | :50:46. | |
you want from the BBC over Some may have appreciated a break | :50:47. | :51:09. | |
from what can be a fairly grim diet of stories, but with many normal | :51:10. | :51:16. | |
bulletins dropped or shortened, others feel they were underserved, | :51:17. | :51:18. | |
including on the BBC's One annual staple of news | :51:19. | :51:24. | |
coverage which did appear Much of the focus was on sports | :51:25. | :51:53. | |
stars, as described by Andy Swiss, and pop stars and actors, | :51:54. | :51:59. | |
reported on by Lizo Mzimba. At the end of a glittering | :52:00. | :52:05. | |
year for British sport, for five of its greatest stars | :52:06. | :52:08. | |
the greatest of honours. Patricia Routledge | :52:09. | :52:11. | |
has been made a dame. Kinks frontman Ray Davis said | :52:12. | :52:17. | |
he felt humility and joy to become Victoria Beckham becomes | :52:18. | :52:20. | |
an OBE for services Anthony Hainsworth took exception | :52:21. | :52:26. | |
to the balance of the reporting, And celebrity culture | :52:27. | :52:32. | |
was at the heart of another series of complaints on what's sadly become | :52:33. | :53:05. | |
a very familiar theme in 2016. Here's the start of BBC One's late | :53:06. | :53:08. | |
bulletin on Christmas Day. In the last hour the death has been | :53:09. | :53:11. | |
announced of the singer George George Michael shot to fame | :53:12. | :53:17. | |
in the 1980s as half of the band Wham and went on to have a hugely | :53:18. | :53:24. | |
successful solo career. He sold more than 80 | :53:25. | :53:29. | |
million records worldwide. The whole news bulletin tonight, | :53:30. | :53:32. | |
apart from four minutes, has been taken up with | :53:33. | :53:38. | |
George Michael dying. It's time you reported | :53:39. | :53:42. | |
the real news. George Michael's was of course not | :53:43. | :53:49. | |
the only death to be reported on the BBC over the past couple | :53:50. | :53:52. | |
of weeks, as other viewers pointed It's the 27th of December and today, | :53:53. | :53:56. | |
the BBC News and Channel 130 An enormously long one | :53:57. | :54:04. | |
for Carrie Fisher, there's still contributions | :54:05. | :54:11. | |
on George Michael, the author Richard Adams and about | :54:12. | :54:15. | |
the Royle Family actress Liz Smith. There's so many important things | :54:16. | :54:25. | |
happening in this world. Good morning, every time I switch | :54:26. | :54:29. | |
on the news to find out what's happening in the world, | :54:30. | :54:36. | |
all I see is an endless film of yet another pop star who has taken | :54:37. | :54:40. | |
himself to an early grave. Sad for friends and family but, | :54:41. | :54:43. | |
please, could you please give Thursday saw the death | :54:44. | :54:48. | |
of Jill Saward, a long-term campaigner for the rights | :54:49. | :55:01. | |
of survivors and victims of sexual violence, having herself been | :55:02. | :55:04. | |
raped at the age of 21. The news was widely and prominently | :55:05. | :55:07. | |
reported at the BBC. With George Alagiah tweeting | :55:08. | :55:10. | |
that he was proud that TV's six o'clock bulletin led | :55:11. | :55:13. | |
on her life and influence. But when the story broke the BBC | :55:14. | :55:15. | |
News alert and the website headlined its report | :55:16. | :55:18. | |
of her death like this, Prompting many complaints, like this | :55:19. | :55:23. | |
one from Becky Stevens, on Twitter. We put this to BBC News, | :55:24. | :55:29. | |
and they referred to a 2004 BBC interview in which Jill Saward said | :55:30. | :55:54. | |
that she had no complaint about being described as the Ealing | :55:55. | :55:57. | |
vicarage rape victim, as it enabled her to challenge | :55:58. | :56:01. | |
politicians and work for change. Well, another issue of language | :56:02. | :56:05. | |
cropped up at the end of last year in relation to the death | :56:06. | :56:34. | |
of another woman. Georgina Symonds was killed a year | :56:35. | :56:37. | |
ago by Peter Morgan, who was sentenced four days before | :56:38. | :56:40. | |
Christmas to life in prison This was the headline | :56:41. | :56:43. | |
on the News at Six that night. Life for the property | :56:44. | :56:48. | |
developer millionaire Once I'd sort of attempted | :56:49. | :56:50. | |
to murder her, I'd be in a hell of a lot of trouble for that, | :56:51. | :57:02. | |
and she could have still gone So no mention of Georgina Symonds' | :57:03. | :57:05. | |
name there, but the one word was used there and online | :57:06. | :57:11. | |
which worried a number of viewers. And RM Shreeve put | :57:12. | :57:14. | |
it like this: In response, | :57:15. | :57:37. | |
BBC News told us this: Well, | :57:38. | :58:17. | |
it's clear that the language used in reporting a death and especially | :58:18. | :58:18. | |
the shorthand of a headline can give great offence to an audience, | :58:19. | :58:22. | |
and that especially Since we were last on air, | :58:23. | :58:24. | |
we have had two examples of that. One following a story | :58:25. | :58:29. | |
on Breakfast about a rowing trip across the Atlantic raising money | :58:30. | :58:32. | |
for a crisis centre in memory of one We wish you all the best, stay safe, | :58:33. | :58:35. | |
and hopefully we will pick up with you when you reach Antigua | :58:36. | :58:41. | |
at the end of January, That's Sam, Toby, Rory and Harry, | :58:42. | :58:44. | |
who are rowing the Atlantic to try | :58:45. | :58:49. | |
and raise money for Harry's brother Rosalind Allen was watching that | :58:50. | :58:51. | |
and e-mailed us with her response. A couple of days earlier, | :58:52. | :59:22. | |
the phrase had also been used on the news ticker, scrolling | :59:23. | :59:24. | |
across the bottom of the screen during an overnight bulletin | :59:25. | :59:27. | |
and then, for this caller The ribbons running | :59:28. | :59:30. | |
across the bottom has an item, news story, chief resigns after | :59:31. | :59:38. | |
overworked employee commits suicide. 20 or so news items after that, | :59:39. | :59:46. | |
the next statement standing alone reads "I tried to kill | :59:47. | :59:53. | |
myself several times." In the early hours of the morning, | :59:54. | :59:57. | |
when vulnerable people might be watching this, it reads "I tried | :59:58. | :00:04. | |
to kill myself several times." I object strongly to | :00:05. | :00:10. | |
this, this is obscene. Again, we asked BBC News | :00:11. | :00:15. | |
for a statement on issues of language about suicide | :00:16. | :00:17. | |
and they told us: Well, | :00:18. | :00:31. | |
thank you for all of your As a new year gets | :00:32. | :00:32. | |
under way on Newswatch, we would | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
like you to tell us what topics which news figures we | :00:37. | :00:38. | |
should be interviewing. You can give us your opinion on BBC | :00:39. | :00:42. | |

on the programme. You can find us on Twitter and do | :00:47. | :00:48. | |
have a look at our website address. That's all from us, we will be back | :00:49. | :00:54. | |
to hear what you thought of the BBC Hello, this is Breakfast, | :00:55. | :00:59. | |
with Rachel Burden and Jon Kay. The British Red Cross warns | :01:00. | :01:20. | |

in the FA Cup as Manchester City put | :02:14. | :02:15. | |
five past West Ham United to go through to the | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
fourth round. And in the next hour, | :02:19. | :02:22. | |

as children in England are given sporting prosthetics | :02:26. | :02:27. | |
for the first time on the NHS. Is good morning. It is grey and | :02:28. | :02:43. | |
murky out there, some fog around, especially over the hills, but in | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
contrast to yesterday, nowhere near as cold. All the details for the | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
weekend in around 15 minutes, join me if you can. | :02:52. | :02:53. | |
The British Red Cross is warning of a humanitarian crisis | :02:54. | :02:57. | |

it's investing more money to improve services. | :03:15. | :03:16. | |
Winter pressure on accident and emergency - nothing new, | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
but the Red Cross now says the strain on hospitals in England | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
The charity claims social-care cuts mean patients are sent home | :03:26. | :03:32. | |
without the right support, so then they end up back in A | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
Red Cross volunteers support NHS staff and say they've seen patients | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
sent home without clothes, some who don't receive the care | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
they need to get washed, even some who've fallen and | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
A staff recognise the problems too. | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
I think the pressures on the NHS, and especially in emergency care, | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
are particularly intense at the moment. | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
But what is more concerning is the number of patients | :04:00. | :04:02. | |
who are being managed within four hours, and then the delays | :04:03. | :04:04. | |
to admission into the hospital bed base, which unfortunately are very, | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
very significant, and our staff are working under some pretty | :04:08. | :04:09. | |
intolerable conditions at times trying to manage. | :04:10. | :04:17. | |
And sometimes they just can't manage. | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
Figures from NHS England show that overflowing A department | :04:21. | :04:22. | |
had to close their doors to new patients | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
more than 140 times over the last month. | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
Compare that with the same month in 2015 - it's up more than 60%. | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
The suspicion is that it is a combination of the cuts | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
in community services run by the NHS, | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
and very heavy pressure in general practice. | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
So is the strain on the NHS costing lives? | :04:46. | :04:47. | |
The death of two patients on emergency trolleys | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
at Worcestershire Royal Hospital are being investigated. | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
One of them had waited 35 hours for a bed. | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
The Department of Health says it's providing billions more | :04:59. | :05:00. | |
NHS England says plans are in place to deal with the extra demand. | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
Beds are actually not quite as full as they work this time last year, | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
but everyone in the health service knows | :05:10. | :05:11. | |
things could get worse before they get better. | :05:12. | :05:12. | |
Earlier on Breakfast, Dr Mark Holland from the Society | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
for Acute Medicine, said so far it had been a winter from hell. | :05:19. | :05:26. | |
We've seen, over the last week or so, that people who should be in a | :05:27. | :05:33. | |
specialty bed are ending up in a non-specialty bed, or there are beds | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
being created when the hospital that we call contingency beds, and people | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
that ice pick to across the country, e-mails that I have been receiving | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
this week, things I have been reading in the immediate, make us | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
conclude that the term humanitarian crisis has somebody to it. | :05:49. | :05:54. | |
We will return to that story throughout the morning Breakfast. | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
Police in Florida have been questioning a man after five people | :05:58. | :05:59. | |
were killed and eight injured in a shooting | :06:00. | :06:01. | |
The suspect opened fire in the baggage-claim area | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
after seemingly retrieving his weapon from his luggage. | :06:07. | :06:08. | |
and hasn't ruled out terrorism as a motive. | :06:09. | :06:13. | |
Our correspondent Gary O'Donoghue reports from Fort Lauderdale. | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
It's a familiar scene at airports the world over, | :06:18. | :06:20. | |
but the baggage-claim hall at the Fort Lauderdale Airport | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
turned into a place of death and mayhem, as a lone gunman | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
opened fire on those waiting to collect their luggage. | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
Passengers scattered for cover, hitting the ground, and reports say | :06:34. | :06:35. | |
the assailant had time to reload before opening fire once again, | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
as attempts were made to attend to the wounded. | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
Once he was done with ammunition, he threw the gun down, | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
and I was about ten feet away from him. | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
He basically threw the gun onto the ground | :06:53. | :06:54. | |
and laid on the ground face down, spreadeagled. | :06:55. | :06:58. | |
The gunman has been named as 26-year-old Esteban Santiago. | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
Reports say he was carrying a military ID and | :07:03. | :07:04. | |
had a weapon in his checked baggage, which is legal in the United States. | :07:05. | :07:07. | |
One family member said he had been receiving psychological treatment | :07:08. | :07:14. | |
after leaving the National Guard last year. | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
This cowardly, heinous act resulted in the deaths of five people. | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
There were eight more people injured by way of gunshot | :07:24. | :07:26. | |
that were transported to local hospitals. | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
In his first reaction to the shooting, | :07:30. | :07:31. | |
President Obama said he was heartbroken for the families. | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
These kinds of tragedies have happened too often | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
during the eight years that I've been President. | :07:40. | :07:41. | |
The disruption at Fort Lauderdale went on long into the night, with | :07:42. | :07:54. | |
some traveller stuck on the tarmac for more than eight hours. | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
The FBI says it's ruling nothing out, including terrorism. | :07:59. | :08:00. | |
But the agency has confirmed it had prior contact | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
when he was referred for a mental-health assessment. | :08:04. | :08:05. | |
The ease with which he was able to transport and use a weapon | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
in an airport will raise serious concerns about public safety. | :08:10. | :08:15. | |
Gary O'Donoghue, BBC News, Fort Lauderdale, Florida. | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
US intelligence officials have released a report that claims | :08:20. | :08:21. | |
Vladimir Putin personally ordered a cyber-campaign | :08:22. | :08:24. | |
to try to help Donald Trump win the presidential election. | :08:25. | :08:27. | |
Last night, after being briefed on the findings, Mr Trump said | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
that hacking had absolutely no impact on the election result | :08:31. | :08:33. | |
but promised to set up a team to stop future attacks, | :08:34. | :08:35. | |
The report from American intelligence claims | :08:36. | :08:44. | |
Russia's President, Vladimir Putin, personally ordered what it called | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
an influence campaign to help Donald Trump's chances | :08:48. | :08:49. | |
The President-elect had earlier described the Russian hacking claims | :08:50. | :08:56. | |
as a political witch-hunt by his opponents. | :08:57. | :08:59. | |
At Trump Tower, he met America's top intelligence officials | :09:00. | :09:01. | |
They say Russia's actions included hacking into the e-mail accounts | :09:02. | :09:09. | |
of the Democratic National Committee and top Democrats, and using | :09:10. | :09:13. | |
intermediaries such as WikiLeaks to release the information. | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
Russia has previously denied this, and WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
has said before that Moscow was not the source. | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
After the briefing, Mr Trump did not single out Russia. | :09:25. | :09:27. | |
says the US will strengthen cyber defences. | :09:28. | :09:53. | |
The President-elect has made it very clear that we're going to take | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
aggressive action in the early days of our new administration | :09:58. | :09:59. | |
to combat cyber attacks and protect the security of the American people | :10:00. | :10:07. | |
from this type of intrusion in the future. | :10:08. | :10:11. | |
Donald Trump said he had tremendous respect for the work | :10:12. | :10:14. | |
and service done by those in the US intelligence community. | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
But with two weeks to go until he moves into the White House, | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
questions remain over how they will all work together | :10:22. | :10:23. | |
The repair bill to fix the country's potholes | :10:24. | :10:31. | |
That's according to councils in England and Wales, | :10:32. | :10:37. | |
who say the Government should pay for the repairs from fuel duty. | :10:38. | :10:39. | |
The Government says it's already putting ?250 million | :10:40. | :10:41. | |
into fixing the problem, but the Local Government Association | :10:42. | :10:43. | |
says that's not enough, as Duncan Kennedy reports. | :10:44. | :10:56. | |
We need a major investment in this country on the road is a structure, | :10:57. | :11:02. | |
the infrastructure, and stopping this sort of patch and amend | :11:03. | :11:06. | |
mentality, and giving us enough money to two action be replaced | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
these local roads that desperately need proper money spent on them. -- | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
to actually replace. Michelle Obama has delivered | :11:14. | :11:18. | |
her final speech as First Lady of the United States, | :11:19. | :11:21. | |
with an impassioned call on young people to have hope, | :11:22. | :11:23. | |
and fight for their rights. Speaking at a ceremony | :11:24. | :11:25. | |
in the White House, she ended tearfully, | :11:26. | :11:27. | |
saying the role of First Lady had the been the greatest | :11:28. | :11:29. | |
honour of her life. Empower yourselves with a good | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
education, then get out there and use that education | :11:33. | :11:34. | |
to build a country worthy Lead by example - | :11:35. | :11:36. | |
with hope, never fear. And know that I will be with you, | :11:37. | :11:44. | |
rooting for you, and working to support you | :11:45. | :11:47. | |
for the rest of my life. So I want to close today | :11:48. | :11:51. | |
by simply saying thank you. Thank you for everything you do | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
for our kids and for our country. Being your First Lady has been | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
the greatest honour of my life, Michelle Obama on her final speech | :12:00. | :12:02. | |
at the White House. The shooting at Fort Lauderdale | :12:03. | :12:14. | |
Airport in Florida has drawn attention to possible weaknesses | :12:15. | :12:17. | |
in US aviation security. Local authorities say the gunman | :12:18. | :12:19. | |
opened fire in the baggage claim area yesterday, | :12:20. | :12:21. | |
after retrieving a weapon Five people were | :12:22. | :12:23. | |
killed in the attack, Joining us from our London | :12:24. | :12:26. | |
newsroom is Philip Baum, editor of Aviation Security | :12:27. | :12:29. | |
International. Thanks for your time this morning on | :12:30. | :12:47. | |
Breakfast, a lot of people will be stunned to hear that if they have | :12:48. | :12:50. | |
been to Florida, they have stepped off microplane, gone to pick up | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
their bags off the plane, that among the bags they could be gallons, | :12:55. | :13:00. | |
legally, it inside people's suitcases. -- guns. Explain how it | :13:01. | :13:05. | |
works. First of all, we are talking about a country that allows people | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
to carry firearms, albeit with permits, and as anywhere in the | :13:10. | :13:14. | |
world, if you are allowed to carry a firearm, you are allowed to take it | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
onto an aircraft, but you have to have the correct paperwork, check in | :13:19. | :13:22. | |
the firearm, which must be unloaded, and then in a separate package, | :13:23. | :13:27. | |
check in the ammunition for it. And of course there comes a point in | :13:28. | :13:31. | |
time when the passenger is reunited with their checked luggage at the | :13:32. | :13:37. | |
arrivals belt. I don't really think this is actually a problem with | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
aviation security, it is actually a problem that could have happened | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
anywhere in society. We have had 223 deaths this year in the United | :13:48. | :13:50. | |
States already as a result of firearms incidents. This happened at | :13:51. | :13:56. | |
an airport, and yes, of course, it is going to be of concern to | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
passengers that are travelling, but you know, it really could have | :14:01. | :14:04. | |
happened anywhere. But airports have been such a focus of security and | :14:05. | :14:08. | |
threats in recent years, and airports go to such lengths to try | :14:09. | :14:13. | |
to make sure that, as you enter them, you are separated from | :14:14. | :14:16. | |
anything that could be a risk to people. It seems extremely ironic | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
that when you arrive, you can be reunited with a weapon, and with | :14:21. | :14:24. | |
ammunition, so easily apparently, and you are still within the | :14:25. | :14:28. | |
confines of the place that is supposedly so safe. Absolutely, but | :14:29. | :14:36. | |
as I say, Americans are entitled, if correctly licensed, to carry | :14:37. | :14:39. | |
firearms, and therefore to take them with them. The objective of airport | :14:40. | :14:43. | |
security is to separate the passenger from the firearm on board | :14:44. | :14:47. | |
the aircraft so that they cannot use it to hijack the aircraft. This was | :14:48. | :14:50. | |
a lesson the Israelis learned back in 1972, with a massacre, when three | :14:51. | :14:56. | |
members of the Japanese red army were reunited with their baggage, | :14:57. | :15:02. | |
opened it in what is now Tel Aviv airport and carried out a firearms | :15:03. | :15:08. | |
attack, killing many people. This is a challenge that we face that we | :15:09. | :15:12. | |
have to screen people, but you have to remember that 27 million people | :15:13. | :15:17. | |
go through Fort Lauderdale every year, there are questions to be | :15:18. | :15:20. | |
asked, one of the things I would be saying is, what was the behaviour | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
like of the passenger when he checked in in Anchorage? We know he | :15:25. | :15:29. | |
had mental health issues. What was his behaviour like in Minneapolis | :15:30. | :15:33. | |
said Paul, when he was in transit? The check-in agents would have known | :15:34. | :15:36. | |
that he was travelling with a firearm, and I think what we will | :15:37. | :15:39. | |
find at the end of the day, the failure was to connect the dots, and | :15:40. | :15:45. | |
that is what happens so often with airport security, one person knows, | :15:46. | :15:49. | |
but does the information get fed down the line. This passenger had no | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
mental health problems, had reported himself to authorities in Anchorage | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
but was still allowed to have a permit, so it is not the fact that | :15:59. | :16:03. | |
he was able to check-in a firearm, people do that on a routine basis, | :16:04. | :16:08. | |
including in the UK, because people do go on hunting trips, shooting | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
competitions, and there are often law enforcement personnel that carry | :16:14. | :16:16. | |
firearms and have them separated on board the aircraft. It is a | :16:17. | :16:20. | |
challenge that we face, but we have to remember that this was a tragic | :16:21. | :16:26. | |
incident, but as I say, 223 deaths so far in 27 as a result of gun | :16:27. | :16:32. | |
related crime, and I am afraid that, with the forthcoming Trump | :16:33. | :16:35. | |
administrations starting in two weeks' time, I don't think we will | :16:36. | :16:41. | |
see any greater controls on guns. For now, Philip Baum, thank you for | :16:42. | :16:43. | |
your time and Breakfast. You're watching | :16:44. | :16:47. | |
Breakfast from BBC News. The British Red Cross is calling | :16:48. | :16:48. | |
for more money to be spent on social care, | :16:49. | :16:52. | |
as it warns of a humanitarian crisis A US Army veteran is being | :16:53. | :16:54. | |
questioned by police after five people were killed in | :16:55. | :16:59. | |
a shooting at Fort Lauderdale She was an outsider to win, | :17:00. | :17:01. | |
but Ray BLK is now following in the steps of Adele after topping | :17:02. | :17:22. | |
the BBC's Sound of 2017 poll. She'll be joining us | :17:23. | :17:25. | |
here before ten. When you look at the list of people | :17:26. | :17:36. | |
who have won that award, it is quite something to live up to! | :17:37. | :17:42. | |
She has got amazing music as well, looking forward to talking to her. | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
It has been a misty and murky morning today, you can see from the | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
pictures, Helen Willetts, things improving? | :17:50. | :17:54. | |
Not really, I'm sorry to say, it will be a slow improvement, this was | :17:55. | :18:00. | |
sent in from Staffordshire, but we have had numerous from that part of | :18:01. | :18:04. | |
the world, quite foggy in parts of the Vale of York and around the | :18:05. | :18:07. | |
seven as jury at the moment. This was just to show you some Cisak | :18:08. | :18:17. | |
coming down in Dudley. -- the Severn estuary. Extra care will be needed, | :18:18. | :18:25. | |
particularly on the motorway network, where we have that foggy | :18:26. | :18:34. | |
around the Bristol area. -- fog. This rain in the South fairly widely | :18:35. | :18:37. | |
light rain and drizzle across southern parts of the country, | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
remnants of a weather front that will take much of the day to fizzle | :18:42. | :18:44. | |
out. They could be a bit of brightness here and there, but don't | :18:45. | :18:49. | |
hold out hope of much, it will for the majority of the UKBA -- the UK | :18:50. | :19:00. | |
be a cloudy Saturday. The Vale of York may see some brightness later. | :19:01. | :19:06. | |
What it is is nowhere near as cold as this time yesterday. These are | :19:07. | :19:13. | |
the temperatures we saw yesterday, minus six in the south. That is | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
because we had no cloud through the night. The cloud will be giving us | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
grey conditions today, acting like a blanket tonight, stopping | :19:23. | :19:25. | |
temperatures from falling, so it looks like it should be largely | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
frost free, chilly in some of the Glens of Scotland. We have a weather | :19:30. | :19:32. | |
front coming through the course of Sunday, strengthening the breeze, | :19:33. | :19:36. | |
lifting the fog across the northern half of the country, bringing patchy | :19:37. | :19:44. | |
rain and drizzle. For Sunday itself, largely dry, predominantly cloudy. A | :19:45. | :19:46. | |
better chance of more brightness tomorrow, although for the FA Cup | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
third round, today and tomorrow, it looks cloudy and grey. A little bit | :19:51. | :19:55. | |
damp in southern areas today. Temperatures tomorrow as today, just | :19:56. | :20:00. | |
nudging above average, a far cry from what is happening elsewhere | :20:01. | :20:05. | |
across Europe. We had cold air yesterday and in previous days, that | :20:06. | :20:08. | |
is now stuck across central and Eastern Europe, where temperatures | :20:09. | :20:12. | |
are considerably lower. No sign of a change back to the cold weather in | :20:13. | :20:15. | |
the UK, much more unsettled into next week. | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
Look at all light blue, very cold in other parts of Europe! | :20:21. | :20:26. | |
For the first time in the NHS is providing disabled children with | :20:27. | :20:32. | |
prosthetic limbs that are designed for playing sport. NHS England hopes | :20:33. | :20:35. | |
took up several hundred children a year with limbs to enable them to | :20:36. | :20:39. | |
participate in more sport. Here is health correspondent Robert Pigott. | :20:40. | :20:42. | |
Right, how have you been doing, then, since you had your blade? | :20:43. | :20:45. | |
When Ben made the decision at the age of ten to have | :20:46. | :20:48. | |
his dream of a future in sport seemed remote. | :20:49. | :20:51. | |
Would you like to put it on for me and show me what you can do with it? | :20:52. | :20:55. | |
Three years on, Ben is one of the first children | :20:56. | :20:58. | |
to receive a running blade on the NHS. | :20:59. | :21:00. | |
As if he were changing a shoe, he can swap is false leg | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
for the blade and feel a new freedom and energy. | :21:04. | :21:08. | |
The spring of it is the bit makes me go faster. | :21:09. | :21:11. | |
I used to not be able to, like, be able to run as fast or able | :21:12. | :21:14. | |
to kick a ball as well, but now I've got a good | :21:15. | :21:17. | |
amount of power in my leg, and I've got the right size, | :21:18. | :21:20. | |
so I can do loads of skills and hit a ball really well. | :21:21. | :21:25. | |
The blade and the treatment costs around ?1000, | :21:26. | :21:31. | |
but Claire Johnson, a health service expert in prosthetic limbs, | :21:32. | :21:33. | |
says the NHS will more than recoup the cost by keeping children active. | :21:34. | :21:37. | |
We're hoping that it will give them a level playing field, | :21:38. | :21:40. | |
so that he can compete with his peers | :21:41. | :21:42. | |
and be able to participate in a lot more sports. | :21:43. | :21:49. | |
It does help in the wider scheme of things, | :21:50. | :21:53. | |
and hopefully give a longer longevity to their lives | :21:54. | :21:55. | |
by giving them the opportunity to do sport. | :21:56. | :21:57. | |
Ben is among 2500 children in England with limbs | :21:58. | :22:00. | |
that are either absent or which don't work properly. | :22:01. | :22:04. | |
The NHS hopes to fit several hundred of them | :22:05. | :22:07. | |
The scheme not only opens the way to sport for a group | :22:08. | :22:13. | |
of disabled youngsters, but it comes with an added message. | :22:14. | :22:21. | |
At a time when so many teenagers are couch potatoes, | :22:22. | :22:24. | |
it makes an example of an extraordinary few | :22:25. | :22:26. | |
who overcome all the odds to carve out a life in sport. | :22:27. | :22:29. | |
The new blade, for me, can do a lot more than my prosthetic can do, | :22:30. | :22:32. | |
Ben's mother Kathleen says running blades | :22:33. | :22:42. | |
can change a disabled child's whole outlook on life. | :22:43. | :22:44. | |
He seems more confident, and more eager to get out and about now. | :22:45. | :22:47. | |
He's wanting to put it on and go out more, | :22:48. | :22:49. | |
Now he has got the blade, the sky is the limit. | :22:50. | :22:58. | |
Ben says he is now training for the Paralympics, | :22:59. | :23:00. | |
and he's talking dates - 2024, at the very least. | :23:01. | :23:04. | |
You're watching Breakfast from BBC News, | :23:05. | :23:23. | |
time now for a look at the newspapers. | :23:24. | :23:25. | |
The writer Paul Vallely is here to tell us what's caught his eye. | :23:26. | :23:32. | |
Good morning to you, thanks for coming in, we have been talking | :23:33. | :23:37. | |
about this hacking, the alleged hacking, claims of hacking in | :23:38. | :23:41. | |
America, that is the first story you have spotted. The first thing was | :23:42. | :23:45. | |
that cartoon, the genius cartoonist from the Times as a small pea in the | :23:46. | :23:53. | |
brain of Donald Trump, and it is understandable why when you read the | :23:54. | :23:55. | |
story. It tells you that the evidence that the various US | :23:56. | :24:02. | |
intelligence agencies have given to Trump is very direct, it says that | :24:03. | :24:08. | |
Putin himself ordered this campaign of hacking, not just something that | :24:09. | :24:12. | |
has been done by freelance agents off their own bat. And the reason | :24:13. | :24:19. | |
the pea brain struck me as being so apt is that he is consistently in | :24:20. | :24:25. | |
denial at the facts of the story, constantly trying to divert them in | :24:26. | :24:30. | |
different directions. Basically, he is fed up of the idea that people | :24:31. | :24:34. | |
will think he is not a legitimate president, because it does not | :24:35. | :24:37. | |
follow that the result was influenced. No, it is important to | :24:38. | :24:43. | |
make that point, but extraordinary, because not just the actual hacking, | :24:44. | :24:47. | |
this campaign of influence, as they described, using Charles on social | :24:48. | :24:53. | |
media to try to influence public discourse. -- troubles. They set up | :24:54. | :24:58. | |
a website, and when nobody read it, they leaked it to Julian Assange, a | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
very strange micro alliance, Julian Assange and Donald Trump, talking | :25:04. | :25:11. | |
about an odd couple! The detail as this is quite extraordinary, and yet | :25:12. | :25:15. | |
Trump is trying to divert attention to how NBC got the details of this, | :25:16. | :25:22. | |
as though that is the important issue. And what struck me most is | :25:23. | :25:27. | |
that a poll shows that 20% of Trump supporters, only 20% believe it, | :25:28. | :25:34. | |
whereas 87% of Clinton believe it. So the divisions in America are | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
really deep and getting deeper. Be classified nature of a lot of the | :25:40. | :25:42. | |
findings, it is hard for the rest of us to know what they are talking | :25:43. | :25:47. | |
about. They give us a broadbrush report, but we do not know what they | :25:48. | :25:50. | |
have found. The Daily Mail has been running a | :25:51. | :25:54. | |
campaign about foreign aid and potential issues of funds from the | :25:55. | :26:01. | |
UK. Yes, this is another example of dog whistle politics, it puts a lot | :26:02. | :26:04. | |
of things together and makes you think that there is something was | :26:05. | :26:09. | |
going on than there is. Obviously, aid needs scrutiny, because there | :26:10. | :26:15. | |
are bad examples of misuse of aid, but this project that the Mail is | :26:16. | :26:19. | |
going about, an Ethiopian equivalent of the Spice Girls getting British | :26:20. | :26:26. | |
money, it is actually a project to empower. There is a lot of early | :26:27. | :26:29. | |
marriage in Ethiopian air, which becomes a kind of child slavery, and | :26:30. | :26:37. | |
educating girls out of that, educating society out of those | :26:38. | :26:41. | |
assumptions, if you educate girls, you find HIV transmission rates go | :26:42. | :26:45. | |
down, child mortality goes down, family income is raised. They are | :26:46. | :26:52. | |
picking on the excrescence, which makes it look silly... But there are | :26:53. | :26:59. | |
no doubt genuine areas of concern, and I think the Mail is tapping into | :27:00. | :27:05. | |
a considerable public opinion issue here. The point that concerns me is | :27:06. | :27:10. | |
that the areas which the Times highlighted, for instance, too much | :27:11. | :27:12. | |
spending on Western consultants, some of the salaries of charity | :27:13. | :27:20. | |
bosses being far too large - there are legitimate areas of concern, but | :27:21. | :27:23. | |
there is a kind of dog whistle element to this story, which tends | :27:24. | :27:29. | |
to make you think, oh, well, all aid is bad, so we should scrap it. | :27:30. | :27:33. | |
Making out that huge amounts of money go in aid, where it is about | :27:34. | :27:37. | |
7p out of every ?10 of national income. It is to help the world's | :27:38. | :27:44. | |
most vulnerable people. We started talking about the incoming president | :27:45. | :27:49. | |
elect, Trump and his family, let's look back, can we? This interesting | :27:50. | :27:54. | |
piece in the Guardian looking back to the 1960s and the Kennedys. A new | :27:55. | :27:58. | |
film coming out called Jackie, it really deconstructs the way that she | :27:59. | :28:06. | |
made the start of the myth, the legend rather of Kennedy, and in an | :28:07. | :28:14. | |
interview soon after his death, she gave a journalist the insights that | :28:15. | :28:17. | |
Kennedy had loved the Broadway musical Camelot, and he had pleaded | :28:18. | :28:26. | |
most nights. She concluded there will be great presidents again, but | :28:27. | :28:29. | |
there will never be another Camelot. This film shows that she had a | :28:30. | :28:35. | |
background in journalism, she had interviewed Richard Nixon, cover the | :28:36. | :28:39. | |
coronation of Queen Elizabeth, she was a seasoned journalist, and it | :28:40. | :28:42. | |
showed how clever she was in building the myth of her husband, | :28:43. | :28:45. | |
which has been one of the great subjects of Hollywood. | :28:46. | :28:50. | |
Issuing public opinion, as Russia apparently has been, in a very | :28:51. | :28:54. | |
different way! Thank you very much. We will see you again in an hour's | :28:55. | :28:56. | |
time. Coming up before the end | :28:57. | :29:00. | |
of the programme, two years ago he was running | :29:01. | :29:02. | |
bootcamps in his local park, now Joe Wicks is a publishing | :29:03. | :29:05. | |
and social-media sensation. He'll be here to give us his recipe | :29:06. | :29:07. | |
for success just before ten. Wait until you hear what he is! -- | :29:08. | :29:10. | |
eats. Hello, this is Breakfast | :29:11. | :30:00. | |
with Jon Kay and Rachel Burden. Coming up before nine, | :30:01. | :30:04. | |
Helen will have the weather. Mike will have all of the FA cup | :30:05. | :30:10. | |
sport. But first, a summary | :30:11. | :30:14. | |
of this morning's main news. The British Red Cross is warning | :30:15. | :30:17. | |
of a humanitarian crisis in NHS hospitals in England, | :30:18. | :30:21. | |
and is demanding the government allocates more money | :30:22. | :30:23. | |
to improve social care. Dozens of A departments | :30:24. | :30:26. | |
were forced to divert ambulances to other hospitals last week, | :30:27. | :30:29. | |
while one patient died after The Department of Health says it's | :30:30. | :30:33. | |
investing more money But Dr Mark Holland, | :30:34. | :30:38. | |
from the Society for Acute Medicine, said it had so far been | :30:39. | :30:43. | |
a "winter from hell". We have seen over the last week or | :30:44. | :30:57. | |
so that people who should be in a specialty bed are ending up in a | :30:58. | :31:01. | |
non-speciality bed, or are beds being created, contingency beds. | :31:02. | :31:07. | |
People I speak to across the country, e-mails I have been | :31:08. | :31:10. | |
receiving and things I have been reading in the media, make us | :31:11. | :31:14. | |
conclude that the term humanitarian crisis has some validity. | :31:15. | :31:19. | |
Police in Florida have been questioning a man, | :31:20. | :31:20. | |
after five people were killed and eight injured in a shooting | :31:21. | :31:23. | |
The suspect opened fire in the baggage claim area, | :31:24. | :31:26. | |
after seemingly retrieving his weapon from his luggage. | :31:27. | :31:28. | |
The FBI says it's pursuing all leads and hasn't ruled out | :31:29. | :31:31. | |
US intelligence officials have released a report that claims | :31:32. | :31:37. | |
Vladimir Putin personally ordered a cyber campaign to try | :31:38. | :31:40. | |
and help Donald Trump win the presidential election. | :31:41. | :31:44. | |
Last night, after being briefed on the findings, Mr Trump, | :31:45. | :31:50. | |
said that hacking had had absolutely no impact on the election outcome. | :31:51. | :31:53. | |
His running mate, Mike Pence, says a team will be set up | :31:54. | :31:56. | |
The President-elect has made it very clear that we're going to take | :31:57. | :32:04. | |
aggressive action in the early days of our new administration to combat | :32:05. | :32:07. | |
cyber attacks and protect the security of the American people | :32:08. | :32:12. | |
from this type of intrusion in the future. | :32:13. | :32:22. | |
The repair bill to fix the country's potholes could reach 20 million | :32:23. | :32:34. | |
pounds. The government says it has already set aside a ?250 million | :32:35. | :32:40. | |
fund to tackle the problem, but the Local Government Association says | :32:41. | :32:41. | |
more needs to be done. A killer whale which was involved | :32:42. | :32:45. | |
in the deaths of three people and featured in an influential | :32:46. | :32:48. | |
documentary, has died Tilikum featured in the film | :32:49. | :32:50. | |
Blackfish, which led to a global campaign against the keeping | :32:51. | :32:54. | |
of orcas in captivity. Sea World says staff are "deeply | :32:55. | :32:56. | |
saddened" by the death of the whale, which was thought | :32:57. | :32:59. | |
to be 36 years old. Those are the main | :33:00. | :33:03. | |
stories this morning. FA Cup day-to-day. Third round. | :33:04. | :33:19. | |
Absolutely. Started last night. Pep Guardiola's first-ever taste of the | :33:20. | :33:24. | |
FA Cup with Manchester City. A goal fest for City at West Ham. | :33:25. | :33:27. | |
FA Cup third round weekend got underway last night, | :33:28. | :33:29. | |
with Manchester City the first side through to round four, | :33:30. | :33:32. | |
thanks to a 5-0 thrashing handed out to West Ham. | :33:33. | :33:34. | |
City were already out of sight by half time - | :33:35. | :33:36. | |
leading 3-0 thanks to an own goal, a Yaya Toure penalty, | :33:37. | :33:39. | |
The gloss on an impressive night was added by John Stones. | :33:40. | :33:43. | |
The England defender scored his first goal | :33:44. | :33:45. | |
He needed goal-line technology to confirm that he'd | :33:46. | :33:48. | |
Hopefully it can help us to make our players believers, | :33:49. | :33:55. | |
that they are good enough to play every game, and try, | :33:56. | :33:59. | |
in both our fans and the people in Manchester City, and they can | :34:00. | :34:03. | |
They know what happened in the past, but we are good guys. | :34:04. | :34:10. | |
So they run a lot, fight a lot, playing good. | :34:11. | :34:12. | |
It will be a special FA Cup reunion, today, for one of the members | :34:13. | :34:19. | |
of the treble-winning Manchester United team of 1999. | :34:20. | :34:23. | |
Former Netherlands centre half Yaap Stam is now the manager | :34:24. | :34:26. | |
of Championship side Reading, who go to Old Trafford hunting | :34:27. | :34:30. | |
As a player, there is nothing better than to play over there, | :34:31. | :34:37. | |
in a stadium like that in front of so many fans. | :34:38. | :34:40. | |
And we know, as well, we have our own fans over | :34:41. | :34:43. | |
Hopefully they are joining in and supporting us. | :34:44. | :34:49. | |
Dan Walker and the Football Focus team are on the road at one | :34:50. | :34:57. | |
of the non-league sides left in the cup. | :34:58. | :35:00. | |
Before he left, Dan left us a little message. | :35:01. | :35:07. | |
Hello Breakfast friends. I cannot be with you today because we are out | :35:08. | :35:14. | |
and about. Football Focus is on the road for the third round of the FA | :35:15. | :35:17. | |
Cup. We hear from all five non-league teams and we will be live | :35:18. | :35:23. | |
at Barrow, who take on Rochdale. Mark Clemmit has been to Stourbridge | :35:24. | :35:29. | |
to speak to Bobby Gould's grandson as they prepare to take on Wycombe | :35:30. | :35:33. | |
Wanderers. Eastleigh manager Martin Allen will speak to us ahead of his | :35:34. | :35:41. | |
return to Brentford. Trevor Nsekhe -- traversing clear is out and | :35:42. | :35:45. | |
about. And we will be at Sutton, too. What more could you possibly | :35:46. | :35:51. | |
want on the third round weekend at the FA Cup? We are live from midday | :35:52. | :35:56. | |
BBC One. Look forward to it. Thank you. | :35:57. | :35:58. | |
Sir Andy Murray will play world number two | :35:59. | :35:59. | |
Novak Djokovic in the final of the Qatar Open today. | :36:00. | :36:02. | |
Murray beat Czech Tomas Berdych in straight sets in their semi | :36:03. | :36:04. | |
final, to reach his fourth final in Doha. | :36:05. | :36:08. | |
The win was Murray's 28th in a row on the ATP Tour, | :36:09. | :36:11. | |
and another title and victory over his main rival would be | :36:12. | :36:14. | |
the ideal preparation for the Australian Open, | :36:15. | :36:15. | |
We played at the end of last year. The ultimate goal was to find a way | :36:16. | :36:31. | |
to win the match. Maybe at the beginning of the year | :36:32. | :36:33. | |
you are focusing a little bit more on yourself, and how | :36:34. | :36:36. | |
you are playing, and how you want to play, moving | :36:37. | :36:38. | |
into the Aussie Open, rather than just solely | :36:39. | :36:40. | |
focusing on the outcome. Newcastle Falcons produced | :36:41. | :36:44. | |
a stunning late comeback to beat Bath 24-22 in rugby union's Aviva | :36:45. | :36:47. | |
Premiership. Bath led by 12 points half way | :36:48. | :36:51. | |
through the second half, but Ben Harris barged his way over | :36:52. | :36:55. | |
to draw Newcastle level less Man of the match Joel Hodgson | :36:56. | :36:59. | |
kept his nerve to slot home the conversion, | :37:00. | :37:05. | |
and send Bath to their Scarlets also came from behind | :37:06. | :37:07. | |
to beat Ulster 16-13, The winning score was a penalty try | :37:08. | :37:15. | |
- Scarlets scrum half Aled Davies was on the receiving end of a high | :37:16. | :37:22. | |
tackle, as he tried Elsewhere, Leinster beat Zebre, and | :37:23. | :37:25. | |
Newport Gwent Dragons beat Treviso. This afternoon, Sir | :37:26. | :37:32. | |
Mo Farah is in action The four-time Olympic champion - | :37:33. | :37:33. | |
who insists he's happy just to be called Mo - | :37:34. | :37:37. | |
was surprisingly beaten He's using the event as part | :37:38. | :37:39. | |
of his preparation for the track World Championships in London | :37:40. | :37:44. | |
later this year, and admits he'll have his work cut out | :37:45. | :37:46. | |
against some cross country They will try and put me down | :37:47. | :37:49. | |
and beat me as quick as possible. That is what makes Cross-Country | :37:50. | :38:11. | |
exciting. This is the event. I will fight for it. But it suits certain | :38:12. | :38:16. | |
athletes better. It will be tough. Now as the big teams enter | :38:17. | :38:21. | |
the FA Cup this weekend, I am sure we will see some silky | :38:22. | :38:23. | |
skills on display - but none as spectacular as those | :38:24. | :38:26. | |
performed by players in the sport It's been one of Asia's biggest | :38:27. | :38:29. | |
sports for centuries. It does hurt to head that. | :38:30. | :38:54. | |
It's heavy, yeah! Outshot! Go easy! Close range. You don't want it on | :38:55. | :39:05. | |
your head. I'm used to it now. Let's see how it is properly played. | :39:06. | :39:08. | |
It is Asia's best-kept secret, the sport that has been part | :39:09. | :39:11. | |
of the culture in countries like Malaysia since the 15th | :39:12. | :39:18. | |
century, combining football skills with the moves of kung fu. | :39:19. | :39:23. | |
And now, sepak takraw is taking off in the UK as well. | :39:24. | :39:30. | |
It is linking the martial art, or the art of the body, | :39:31. | :39:34. | |
with this game, because you need to have the agility, | :39:35. | :39:36. | |
First of all, you are learning the basics of kicking up, really. | :39:37. | :39:44. | |
It does hurt, I can tell you that, a little bit, because... | :39:45. | :39:49. | |
Slightly softer than the original ones, which were made of rattan, | :39:50. | :39:58. | |
If you play football, therefore you can play this | :39:59. | :40:08. | |
So it is football meets volleyball, and has now spread across the world. | :40:09. | :40:13. | |
And who better to recruit for the newest team forming this | :40:14. | :40:16. | |
year, than freestyle football world recordholder John Farnworth. | :40:17. | :40:28. | |
Now, the size of the ball was a surprise. | :40:29. | :40:31. | |
In matches it is only three a side, and you only have three touches | :40:32. | :40:54. | |
per team, before it has to go over the net. | :40:55. | :40:58. | |
You do have set positions - the server, the feeder | :40:59. | :41:10. | |
The flexibility these guys possess is incredible. | :41:11. | :41:21. | |
They are getting their legs way above their head. | :41:22. | :41:23. | |
It is like what Zlatan Ibrahimovic does. | :41:24. | :41:33. | |
And if we win the point, the celebration. | :41:34. | :41:39. | |
John, there is potential for you. You did a header. They are trying to | :41:40. | :41:54. | |
form a national league in the UK. Open to get a British team together | :41:55. | :41:57. | |
by the summer to take on the likes of Switzerland, Belgium and France, | :41:58. | :42:02. | |
who lead the European Challenge Tour. You start off practising | :42:03. | :42:12. | |
keepy-uppy? Yes. I am impressed by your high kicks. I was OK at | :42:13. | :42:17. | |
serving. When it came to the complicated net stuff, I left that | :42:18. | :42:22. | |
to John. It would be great to see a British team on the world stage. | :42:23. | :42:27. | |
That is enough heading! Concentrate on my foot skills. | :42:28. | :42:34. | |
We are doing foot skills later with Joe Wicks. We have had lots of texts | :42:35. | :42:44. | |
and e-mails and Facebook messages on potholes this morning. ?14 billion | :42:45. | :42:51. | |
funding issue on that. That is how much they say it will cost to repair | :42:52. | :42:54. | |
all of the potholes in England by 2020. Masses of correspondence. | :42:55. | :43:01. | |
Tammy says the front wheel of bicycle went down a pothole. It | :43:02. | :43:05. | |
stopped and she didn't. One ambulance, a hospital visit and a | :43:06. | :43:10. | |
week off work. Even though the pothole was filled, she is still | :43:11. | :43:13. | |
nervous about that section of the road. In fact, cycling has never | :43:14. | :43:17. | |
been the same for. Lots of cyclists involved. Gary, back in 2015, he hit | :43:18. | :43:26. | |
a pothole in the rain. It was full of water. He went over the | :43:27. | :43:30. | |
handlebars. We had eight months of work. Still having treatment. Lots | :43:31. | :43:32. | |
of you with similar stories. Police say that 35 children have | :43:33. | :43:35. | |
come forward to them, fearing they have been groomed online | :43:36. | :43:39. | |
following the publication of a film about the life of murdered | :43:40. | :43:43. | |
schoolgirl Kayleigh Haywood. The 15-year-old had chatted with | :43:44. | :43:46. | |
a man on Facebook for two weeks, The five-minute video, | :43:47. | :43:49. | |
made by Leicestershire police, was shown to 35,000 school pupils | :43:50. | :43:55. | |
in September and made We'll speak to the force's | :43:56. | :43:59. | |
Chief Constable in just a moment, but first let's take | :44:00. | :44:06. | |
a look at the film. I'll ride to stay at Katie's | :44:07. | :44:40. | |
tomorrow? Yeah, all right. Mum and dad wouldn't understand. They don't | :44:41. | :44:41. | |
know he is different. Chief Constable Simon Cole joins us | :44:42. | :44:43. | |
from our Leicester studio. It's a very powerful film. It's a | :44:44. | :44:52. | |
very unsettling film to watch. The first thing we should point out is | :44:53. | :44:56. | |
this was done with the cooperation and approval of Caley's family? | :44:57. | :45:03. | |
Yeah, absolutely. Caley's family have been integral. They wanted as | :45:04. | :45:08. | |
we wanted that there was a legacy which would mean some good came out | :45:09. | :45:12. | |
of something so tragic. They have been hugely supportive. The film was | :45:13. | :45:17. | |
not an easy watch because it is not an easy topic. She went, 15 days | :45:18. | :45:24. | |
from meeting someone online, to tragically being murdered. Along the | :45:25. | :45:29. | |
way there are 2643 messages exchanged. It is a pretty sobering | :45:30. | :45:33. | |
watch. I would suggest to viewers that they watch it and certainly I | :45:34. | :45:38. | |
have watched it as a police officer and as a parent. Online there are | :45:39. | :45:43. | |
fantastic opportunities, lots that is good. But there are also some | :45:44. | :45:46. | |
risks. That is what this film tries to demonstrate using a very sad | :45:47. | :45:54. | |
case. It could have been anyone's child, Hani won -- anyone family? | :45:55. | :46:02. | |
Yes, if you watch the film and we now believe more than 5.5 million | :46:03. | :46:06. | |
people have watched it since it went online earlier this week. It is such | :46:07. | :46:12. | |
an ordinary story. We have shown the film in supported viewings to 35,000 | :46:13. | :46:17. | |
school children all across Leicestershire and Rutland. 35 of | :46:18. | :46:22. | |
them have come forward and said something similar had happened to | :46:23. | :46:27. | |
them, which has led us to investigations and safeguarding | :46:28. | :46:32. | |
work. This is going on. There is much that is good online. I hope the | :46:33. | :46:38. | |
film makes people aware of the risks. The man who contacted | :46:39. | :46:42. | |
Kayleigh Haywood and the means he went and read it, would that be | :46:43. | :46:46. | |
quite typical of the techniques that anyone grooming a child would use? | :46:47. | :46:52. | |
Yes, I think it would. The texts in the film are real texts. He is now | :46:53. | :46:58. | |
doing 12 years in prison. It became apparent that he was also in contact | :46:59. | :47:03. | |
with other young people in a similar way and he was representing himself | :47:04. | :47:06. | |
as something that he wasn't and someone he wasn't. His next door | :47:07. | :47:12. | |
neighbour and friend was the person that killed Kaylee Haywood and he is | :47:13. | :47:18. | |
doing 35 years. It is pretty typical. That is why it is being | :47:19. | :47:22. | |
shown in the way it is shown, using some of the real words we use. When | :47:23. | :47:28. | |
you take it from here when people come forward? We have been working | :47:29. | :47:35. | |
with other partner agencies across Leicestershire and Rutland. The most | :47:36. | :47:39. | |
important thing is to safeguard the young person. The next stage is | :47:40. | :47:43. | |
often an investigation. There have been investigations that have | :47:44. | :47:48. | |
followed on from the 35 disclosures. And the film is about trying to | :47:49. | :47:52. | |
create a legacy of prevention so that people behave differently, | :47:53. | :47:55. | |
people perhaps think about who they are talking to online. People | :47:56. | :47:59. | |
realise they don't always know who they are talking to. If they then | :48:00. | :48:04. | |
finish up meeting people they have met online, that they do that in a | :48:05. | :48:07. | |
way that is safe and they can be saved. I think a lot of parents will | :48:08. | :48:15. | |
be interested in looking this up and putting it into any search engine. | :48:16. | :48:20. | |
What sort of age range are we talking about? What age range is | :48:21. | :48:23. | |
appropriate for a? We have shown that in supervised showings from 11 | :48:24. | :48:31. | |
years -- for children from 11 years and upwards. It is not an easy | :48:32. | :48:40. | |
watch. As you watch it you sort of find yourself trying back into your | :48:41. | :48:45. | |
seat thinking, goodness me. But we have watched it in a supervised way, | :48:46. | :48:50. | |
children of 11 and upwards, because those are the kind of children that | :48:51. | :48:54. | |
are active online, which is mostly good, but they need to be aware of | :48:55. | :48:58. | |
the risks. Watch it with your children and talk to them about it | :48:59. | :49:03. | |
is the general message? Yeah, absolutely. Thank you very much | :49:04. | :49:05. | |
indeed. Chief Constable Simon Cole. Details of organisations | :49:06. | :49:11. | |
offering information and support are available | :49:12. | :49:12. | |
at bbc.co.uk/actionline, or you can call for free any | :49:13. | :49:15. | |
time, to hear recorded It is pretty mild this morning. It | :49:16. | :49:42. | |
is also misty and murky. There is the evidence. | :49:43. | :49:48. | |
It is. It is not going anywhere quickly, this fog. It is a cloud | :49:49. | :49:54. | |
layer. It has hit the surface in some areas because we have no wind. | :49:55. | :50:01. | |
There is the risk of further travel disruption this morning and into the | :50:02. | :50:07. | |
afternoon. This is Staffordshire. The fog is the main concern. It is | :50:08. | :50:14. | |
particularly thick through northern England, the Vale of York, Cheshire | :50:15. | :50:19. | |
and Manchester. In Bristol, visibility is down to 100 metres. | :50:20. | :50:23. | |
That will affect airports. We have got the drizzly rain across the | :50:24. | :50:27. | |
South. That will be slow to clear. It is cloudy, it is grey and the | :50:28. | :50:33. | |
cloud is thick enough to give us drizzle. In the Southend West, that | :50:34. | :50:40. | |
will be reluctant clear. Few glimmers of sunshine. I wouldn't | :50:41. | :50:47. | |
like to promise them in any particularly lengthy spells, but | :50:48. | :50:51. | |
possibly in north-eastern Scotland and eastern Northern Ireland faring | :50:52. | :50:56. | |
better. It will ease up a little bit this evening and overnight in the | :50:57. | :51:03. | |
North. But the cloud... Generally mild, the temps -- temperatures. It | :51:04. | :51:10. | |
will be a murky morning tomorrow. Misty and foggy weather once again. | :51:11. | :51:15. | |
The fog taking time to clear. In the south, a mostly dry and cloudy day. | :51:16. | :51:19. | |
Slightly brighter without the weather front. In the south and | :51:20. | :51:24. | |
north, possibly brighter spells. If you are heading to the FA Cup today | :51:25. | :51:29. | |
and tomorrow, it is basically leaden skies. Relatively mild. -6 | :51:30. | :51:37. | |
yesterday, this morning, six, tomorrow, eight to ten. The breeze | :51:38. | :51:44. | |
strengthening tomorrow. It is significantly warmer than eastern | :51:45. | :51:47. | |
parts of Europe. At the moment across parts of Belgium and Holland, | :51:48. | :51:53. | |
parts of France, we have freezing rain, icy conditions. Into next | :51:54. | :51:59. | |
week, all change. We get rid of the high-pressure. We have low pressure. | :52:00. | :52:05. | |
So bands of rain and breeze picking up as well. | :52:06. | :52:09. | |
That clears the fog at least. Thank you. | :52:10. | :52:17. | |
This week HSBC launched adverts for its new voice recognition | :52:18. | :52:19. | |
security system for customers of its telephone banking service. | :52:20. | :52:28. | |
It's just one of several initiatives to get rid of passwords. | :52:29. | :52:31. | |
Typically it is estimated we each have more than 20 online | :52:32. | :52:33. | |
accounts which need one - and most of us struggle | :52:34. | :52:36. | |
to remember them, or don't keep them very secure. | :52:37. | :52:40. | |
Goodness knows, keeping one password for all 20 is the worst thing you | :52:41. | :52:45. | |
can do. You have to keep changing them. | :52:46. | :52:46. | |
Paul Lewis of Radio 4's Money Box programme has been looking | :52:47. | :52:49. | |
at password security, and joins us now | :52:50. | :52:50. | |
It is complicated, isn't it? There are so many demands on our password | :52:51. | :53:02. | |
security. It is. You have to keep changing them. The advice is not to | :53:03. | :53:07. | |
use one over several sites. You mentioned HSBC. They are trailing | :53:08. | :53:15. | |
this. Voice recognition will replace passwords. MasterCard are trying out | :53:16. | :53:22. | |
taking a selfie of yourself when you log on. See if that works. With the | :53:23. | :53:28. | |
iPhone you can use your thumb print. Passwords are here to stay for a | :53:29. | :53:31. | |
long time and managing them is difficult. HSBC talking about voice | :53:32. | :53:37. | |
recognition over the phone. That doesn't mean the end of passwords? | :53:38. | :53:44. | |
Not at all. Not for now, certainly. The advice is, and I have been | :53:45. | :53:47. | |
talking to experts, people still use passwords like one, two, three, | :53:48. | :53:59. | |
four, five, six. Perhaps stick a punctuation mark in the middle. That | :54:00. | :54:08. | |
is virtually on trackable. You can use password managers. These are | :54:09. | :54:12. | |
sites on the web that you can join and you just have one very secure | :54:13. | :54:16. | |
password which, of course, you have to remember. They then manage your | :54:17. | :54:20. | |
passwords and make them very difficult or impossible to crack. | :54:21. | :54:24. | |
You have to pick the right firm. You have to trust them with their -- | :54:25. | :54:29. | |
your password. The real problem is not just us. It is the firms. If | :54:30. | :54:34. | |
someone has a password breach and your passwords are stolen, thieves | :54:35. | :54:39. | |
can crack those passwords. If you use them on different sites, once | :54:40. | :54:45. | |
they have got one password, they have got access to everything. So | :54:46. | :54:50. | |
you have to have a lot of secure passwords to keep yourself safe. It | :54:51. | :54:54. | |
is a problem. But we have to deal with it. It isn't like locking the | :54:55. | :54:57. | |
front door and the windows when you get out. And having to change your | :54:58. | :55:02. | |
keys every couple of weeks! That is a very good example. With password | :55:03. | :55:11. | |
management tools, you just have to remember one. You don't write it | :55:12. | :55:15. | |
down. You have to remember it. Then you have two ask yourself, what is | :55:16. | :55:19. | |
my password?! There will be more on that | :55:20. | :55:22. | |

the weekend in around 15 minutes, join me if you can. | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
The British Red Cross is warning of a humanitarian crisis | :00:17. | :00:21. | |
in NHS hospitals in England and is demanding the Government | :00:22. | :00:23. | |
allocates more money to improve social care. | :00:24. | :00:25. | |
Dozens of A departments were forced to divert ambulances | :00:26. | :00:27. | |
The Royal College of Emergency Medicine | :00:28. | :00:35. | |
says the system is on its knees, but the Department of Health says | :00:36. | :00:38. | |
it's investing more money to improve services. | :00:39. | :00:39. | |
Winter pressure on accident and emergency - nothing new, | :00:40. | :00:43. | |
but the Red Cross now says the strain on hospitals in England | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
The charity claims social-care cuts mean patients are sent home | :00:48. | :00:54. | |
without the right support, so then they end up back in A | :00:55. | :00:58. | |
Red Cross volunteers support NHS staff and say they've seen patients | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
sent home without clothes, some who don't receive the care | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
even some who've fallen and not been found for days. | :01:05. | :01:12. | |
A staff recognise the problems too. | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
I think the pressures on the NHS, and especially in emergency care, | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
are particularly intense at the moment. | :01:20. | :01:21. | |
But what is more concerning is the number of patients who | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
have been managed within four hours, and then the delays to admission | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
into the hospital bed base, which unfortunately are very, | :01:31. | :01:32. | |
very significant, and our staff are working under some pretty | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
intolerable conditions at times trying to manage. | :01:36. | :01:37. | |
And sometimes they just can't manage. | :01:38. | :01:43. | |
Figures from NHS England show that overflowing A departments | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
had to close their doors to new patients | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
more than 140 times over the last month. | :01:50. | :01:50. | |
Compare that with the same month in 2015 - it's up more than 60%. | :01:51. | :01:57. | |
The suspicion is that it's a combination of the cuts | :01:58. | :01:59. | |
that we've seen in social care, in community services run | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
by the NHS, and very heavy pressure in general practice. | :02:03. | :02:06. | |
So is the strain on the NHS costing lives? | :02:07. | :02:09. | |
The death of two patients on emergency trolleys | :02:10. | :02:12. | |
at Worcestershire Royal Hospital are being investigated. | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
One of them had waited 35 hours for a bed. | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
The Department of Health says it's providing billions more | :02:19. | :02:21. | |
NHS England says plans are in place to deal with the extra demand. | :02:22. | :02:28. | |
Beds are actually not quite as full as they work this time last year, | :02:29. | :02:31. | |
but everyone in the health service knows things could get worse | :02:32. | :02:34. | |
Earlier on Breakfast, Dr Mark Holland from the Society | :02:35. | :02:42. | |
for Acute Medicine said so far it had been a winter from hell. | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
We've seen, over the last week or so, that people who should be | :02:47. | :02:49. | |
in a specialty bed are ending up in a non-specialty bed, | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
or there are beds being created within a hospital that we call | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
contingency beds, and people that I speak to across the country, | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
e-mails that I've been receiving this week, things I've been | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
reading in the media, make us conclude | :03:04. | :03:06. | |
that the term "humanitarian crisis" has something to it. | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
Police in Florida have been questioning a man after five people | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
were killed and eight injured in a shooting at Fort | :03:16. | :03:17. | |
The suspect opened fire in the baggage-claim | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
area after seemingly retrieving his weapon | :03:21. | :03:21. | |
The FBI says it's pursuing all leads and hasn't ruled out | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
Our correspondent Gary O'Donoghue reports from Fort Lauderdale. | :03:26. | :03:35. | |
It's a familiar scene at airports the world over, | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
but the baggage-claim hall at the Fort Lauderdale Airport | :03:39. | :03:41. | |
turned into a place of death and mayhem, as a lone gunman | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
opened fire on those waiting to collect their luggage. | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
Passengers scattered for cover, hitting the ground, and reports say | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
the assailant had time to reload before opening fire once again, | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
as attempts were made to attend to the wounded. | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
Once he was done with ammunition, he threw the gun down, | :04:03. | :04:04. | |
and I was about ten feet away from him. | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
He basically threw the gun on the ground | :04:09. | :04:10. | |
and laid on the ground face down, spreadeagled. | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
The gunman has been named as 26-year-old Esteban Santiago. | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
Reports say he was carrying a military ID and | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
had a weapon in his checked baggage, which is legal in the United States. | :04:22. | :04:27. | |
One family member said he had been receiving psychological | :04:28. | :04:29. | |
treatment after leaving the National Guard last year. | :04:30. | :04:35. | |
This cowardly, heinous act resulted in the deaths of five people. | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
There were eight more people injured by way of gunshot that | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
In his first reaction to the shooting, | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
President Obama said he was heartbroken for the families. | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
These kinds of tragedies have happened too often | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
during the eight years that I've been President. | :04:56. | :04:57. | |
The disruption at Fort Lauderdale went on long into the night, | :04:58. | :05:04. | |
with some travellers stuck on the tarmac | :05:05. | :05:05. | |
The FBI says it's ruling nothing out, including terrorism. | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
But the agency has confirmed it had prior contact | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
when he was referred for a mental-health assessment. | :05:15. | :05:20. | |
The ease with which he was able to transport and use a weapon | :05:21. | :05:23. | |
in an airport will raise serious concerns about public safety. | :05:24. | :05:28. | |
Gary O'Donoghue, BBC News, Fort Lauderdale, Florida. | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
US intelligence officials have released a report that claims | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
Vladimir Putin personally ordered a cyber-campaign | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
to try to help Donald Trump win the presidential election. | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
Last night, after being briefed on the findings, Mr Trump said that | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
hacking had absolutely no impact on the election result | :05:48. | :05:49. | |
but promised to set up a team to stop future attacks, | :05:50. | :05:52. | |
The report from American intelligence claims | :05:53. | :06:00. | |
Russia's President, Vladimir Putin, personally ordered what it called | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
an influence campaign to help Donald Trump's chances of winning | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
The President-elect had earlier described the Russian hacking claims | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
as a political witch-hunt by his opponents. | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
At Trump Tower, he met America's top intelligence officials | :06:18. | :06:19. | |
They say Russia's actions included hacking into the e-mail accounts | :06:20. | :06:27. | |
of the Democratic National Committee and top Democrats, and using | :06:28. | :06:29. | |
intermediaries such as WikiLeaks to release the information. | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
Russia has previously denied this, and WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
has said before that Moscow was not the source. | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
After the briefing, Mr Trump did not single out Russia. | :06:41. | :06:42. | |
And the incoming Vice President says the US | :06:43. | :07:13. | |
The President-elect has made it very clear that we're going to take | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
aggressive action in the early days of our new administration | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
to combat cyber attacks and protect the security of the American people | :07:20. | :07:22. | |
from this type of intrusion in the future. | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
Donald Trump said he had tremendous respect for the work | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
and service done by those in the US intelligence community. | :07:30. | :07:35. | |
But with two weeks to go until he moves into the White House, | :07:36. | :07:38. | |
questions remain over how they will all work together | :07:39. | :07:41. | |
The repair bill to fix the country's pot holes | :07:42. | :07:48. | |
That's according to nearly 400 councils in England and Wales | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
who say the Government should pay for repairs from fuel duty. | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
The Government says it's already set aside a ?250 million fund | :07:58. | :08:00. | |
but the Local Government Association says more needs to be done. | :08:01. | :08:08. | |
We need a major investment in this country on the road is a structure, | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
the infrastructure, and stopping this sort of patch-and-mend | :08:13. | :08:14. | |
mentality, and giving us enough money to actually replace these | :08:15. | :08:16. | |
local roads that desperately need proper money spent on them. | :08:17. | :08:30. | |
Michelle Obama has delivered her final speech as First Lady | :08:31. | :08:32. | |
of the United States, with an impassioned call | :08:33. | :08:34. | |
on young people to have hope, and fight for their rights. | :08:35. | :08:37. | |
Speaking at a ceremony in the White House, | :08:38. | :08:39. | |
she ended tearfully, saying the role of First Lady | :08:40. | :08:41. | |
had been the greatest honour of her life. | :08:42. | :08:44. | |
Empower yourselves with a good education, | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
then get out there and use that education | :08:48. | :08:49. | |
to build a country worthy of your boundless promise. | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
Lead by example - with hope, never fear. | :08:54. | :09:01. | |
And know that I will be with you, rooting for you, | :09:02. | :09:03. | |
and working to support you for the rest of my life. | :09:04. | :09:06. | |
So I want to close today by simply saying thank you. | :09:07. | :09:08. | |
Thank you for everything you do for our kids and for our country. | :09:09. | :09:13. | |
Being your First Lady has been the greatest honour of my life, | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
Not a dry eye in the house! The end of an era. We can think about the | :09:17. | :09:37. | |
White House in the future under Donald Trump. | :09:38. | :09:40. | |
He says he's had a constructive meeting with | :09:41. | :09:42. | |
American intelligence officials, who have released a report | :09:43. | :09:44. | |
saying Russia was behind a series of cyber attacks | :09:45. | :09:46. | |
designed to influence the recent election. | :09:47. | :09:48. | |
The President-elect insists the hacking played no part | :09:49. | :09:50. | |
in his victory but says he'll appoint a team to devise | :09:51. | :09:53. | |
ways of combating any future interference. | :09:54. | :09:56. | |
Let's remind ourselves what's been happening over the last 18 months. | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
an FBI agent found a Russian-linked hacker in the Democrats network. | :10:00. | :10:09. | |
In July 2016, WikiLeaks released private emails from Democratic | :10:10. | :10:12. | |
officials just days before the National Convention. | :10:13. | :10:18. | |
In October 2016, the FBI and the CIA announce they believe the Russian | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
and their aim was to interfere with the US election process. | :10:22. | :10:28. | |
So what does Donald Trump think of it all? | :10:29. | :10:32. | |
Well, he's made it clear he doesn't believe intelligence chiefs, | :10:33. | :10:34. | |
And less than 24-hours before that briefing, | :10:35. | :10:52. | |
one of his top intelligence advisers, | :10:53. | :10:54. | |
former CIA director James Woolsey, quit his team. | :10:55. | :11:02. | |
They were able to come up with the identities of the intermediaries | :11:03. | :11:08. | |
between the Russian government and the people who did some of the | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
hacking, they didn't have that before. And that, I think, was one | :11:12. | :11:17. | |
thing that got a lot of people's attention, including mine. | :11:18. | :11:19. | |
Todd Landman, professor of political science | :11:20. | :11:21. | |
at the University of Nottingham, is with us. | :11:22. | :11:27. | |
We are climbing a mountain of political intrigue in the United | :11:28. | :11:34. | |
States this morning! Do you buy this interpretation by American | :11:35. | :11:37. | |
intelligence services that Russia was behind this, and more | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
specifically Vladimir Putin directed it himself? I think it goes a bit | :11:41. | :11:45. | |
beyond interpretation, you are looking at 17 intelligence agencies | :11:46. | :11:48. | |
coming together in this joint report which communicates what is allowed | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
to be communicated - there are methods and techniques which are | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
classified. That is the difficulty, we don't see the hard evidence. A | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
lot of people make hay out of that, but a couple of key things are very | :12:02. | :12:07. | |
interesting. Trump is hanging on to the fact that it does not say that | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
the counting of votes was not affected, he won fair and square. It | :12:12. | :12:15. | |
is impossible to determine, however, the degree to which public opinion | :12:16. | :12:19. | |
had changed because of that intervention. That is something to | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
draw from this experience. We don't know what happened behind locked | :12:25. | :12:27. | |
doors in this meeting, but what do you make of the way Trump and esteem | :12:28. | :12:31. | |
have dealt with this after the meeting finished? Since the meeting, | :12:32. | :12:38. | |
we have seen a bit of forward movement from the Trump team, they | :12:39. | :12:41. | |
say a constructive meeting, that is a positive signal. It is odd for a | :12:42. | :12:45. | |
president to go on the offensive against the team that will work with | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
him. They need to work with them everyday, there are 800 military | :12:50. | :12:52. | |
bases around the world, there are constant briefings about this, and | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
he needs to be briefed every day, and to disparage that really doesn't | :12:57. | :13:01. | |
show the maturity of office that American people deserve. What is the | :13:02. | :13:06. | |
endgame for Vladimir Putin? If you can influence world politics from | :13:07. | :13:14. | |
behind your desk, in ways that has already been proven in this case, | :13:15. | :13:17. | |
then it is a win for him, and it goes back to that zero-sum world | :13:18. | :13:20. | |
politics of the Cold War, that a win for the Soviet Union was a loss for | :13:21. | :13:23. | |
the United States. But he wants to work closely with Trump, forge a | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
working relationship with him. It is not about Trump, it is about Hillary | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
Clinton, the liberal order, international institutions, and to | :13:34. | :13:35. | |
be able to attack that in ways that he has done, among other ways, is a | :13:36. | :13:41. | |
way of returning to that zero-sum thinking. We are seeing a new | :13:42. | :13:45. | |
paradigm perhaps in world politics, in which popular strongmen are | :13:46. | :13:53. | |
coming to the fore. How damaging is this for Trump as president? When | :13:54. | :13:57. | |
he's seen on stage with Putin, there will be a recollection in people's | :13:58. | :14:01. | |
minds, even if we move on from this - Izzy Dagg was because of him? He | :14:02. | :14:05. | |
needs to tackle it quickly, saying that there will be eight task forces | :14:06. | :14:14. | |
the right thing to do. -- there will be a task force. It could be like | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
the Hillary Clinton e-mail scandal, it could linger for many years, and | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
he wants to get rid of it now, make sure something is being seen to be | :14:23. | :14:28. | |
done. What about the UK perspective on all of this? British intelligence | :14:29. | :14:32. | |
services, I think, assisted American intelligence in some ways in all of | :14:33. | :14:36. | |
this, but also the report made it clear that this isn't necessarily | :14:37. | :14:40. | |
just going to affect America, that it is likely that the Kremlin, | :14:41. | :14:44. | |
Moscow, will be trying to use this influential power in other | :14:45. | :14:47. | |
countries, in other world events as well. All powerful governments do | :14:48. | :14:52. | |
this, that is an important point. Government around the world are able | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
to do this, and there is a tit-for-tat strategy going on in | :14:57. | :14:59. | |
terms of cyber attacks, so it is not just a Russian problem - it is a way | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
in which power is exercised around the world. Military power, soft | :15:05. | :15:11. | |
power, intelligence power et cetera. We shouldn't kid ourselves that this | :15:12. | :15:14. | |
is only a Russian problem. Thank you very much. Lovely to have you with | :15:15. | :15:22. | |
us this morning. Properly this time, earlier we | :15:23. | :15:25. | |
thought you were someone else, thank you for coming back! Helen Housby -- | :15:26. | :15:36. | |
as the weather, sunshine breaking through at last! | :15:37. | :15:40. | |
I was fed up of showing you fog this morning, so I found a little bit of | :15:41. | :15:47. | |
sunshine. If you are living up in Moray, you may see a bit of | :15:48. | :15:52. | |
sunshine, I would not say the north-east of Scotland was one of | :15:53. | :15:55. | |
the better parts to see brightness, because elsewhere it is difficult to | :15:56. | :16:00. | |
see much at all. Visibility has not really improved since I have been in | :16:01. | :16:04. | |
this morning, and they are unlikely to improve very quickly. The | :16:05. | :16:07. | |
remnants of a weather front in the south is reducing visibility, | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
Bristol is down to 50 metres, but that fog is around through | :16:13. | :16:15. | |
Lancashire, Cheshire, the Vale of York, pretty mucky in those areas. | :16:16. | :16:21. | |
And it is great elsewhere. Fog, for example, sitting on the Chilterns, | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
fog further west, drizzle quite widely across the south-west. Wales, | :16:26. | :16:34. | |
mostly dry, but rather murky, particularly over the hills, not a | :16:35. | :16:38. | |
day to Godel walking. Northern Ireland has a lot of cloud, Scotland | :16:39. | :16:45. | |
as well, but predominantly dry. -- to go hill walking. Through this | :16:46. | :16:48. | |
evening and overnight, all that cloud stops the temperatures from | :16:49. | :16:53. | |
falling, so relatively mild to start this morning, a relatively mild day | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
compared to what we have had this week, staying largely frost free | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
overnight, chilly in the north-east of Scotland. But again, the area | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
where we see the best of the sunshine, and other mucky start for | :17:06. | :17:10. | |
most of us, hopefully a little bit more breeze picking up in the north | :17:11. | :17:14. | |
to make it clear more quickly. On balance, more brightness, as you can | :17:15. | :17:18. | |
see for the FA Cup, mostly light cloud rather than grey. But | :17:19. | :17:23. | |
effectively it is cloudy! It should be dry, temperatures getting 28-10 | :17:24. | :17:28. | |
degrees Celsius, just a smidgen above average. -- getting to 8-10. | :17:29. | :17:35. | |
We currently have freezing rain across the low countries, cold air | :17:36. | :17:39. | |
stagnant further east, the average for Moscow was minus nine, and we | :17:40. | :17:43. | |
have snow across the Greek islands at the moment, so some really wintry | :17:44. | :17:47. | |
weather not too far away from our shores. As for the new we cared, | :17:48. | :17:51. | |
turning more unsettled, low pressure moves in, high pressure keeps us | :17:52. | :18:02. | |
dry. -- as for the new week ahead. We will keep you posted on the wind | :18:03. | :18:06. | |
up north, it is the lack of wind that is causing problems today with | :18:07. | :18:07. | |
the fog this morning. Thank you very much, Helen, we will | :18:08. | :18:12. | |
wait for the fog to blow away! When you've pushed yourself | :18:13. | :18:18. | |
to the edge to conquer Mount Everest, abandoning your climb | :18:19. | :18:21. | |
just 500 metres from the top But that's what our next heroic | :18:22. | :18:24. | |
guest did to help a fellow Former British serviceman | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
Leslie Binns turned around to save a woman who'd collapsed | :18:29. | :18:31. | |
while on her trek. the world's highest mountain | :18:32. | :18:37. | |
again soon, Thank you very much indeed for | :18:38. | :18:48. | |
coming in! Shall we go back to the first time, you tell us what | :18:49. | :18:55. | |
happened? I managed to get to 8000 metres, which is Camp 4, it is about | :18:56. | :19:01. | |
eight o'clock at night, a lovely night, nice clear whether, and a few | :19:02. | :19:08. | |
hours later we were coming to a balcony, about 8400 metres, and | :19:09. | :19:12. | |
there was a commotion at the head, and the next thing we knew, someone | :19:13. | :19:15. | |
was sliding down the mountain towards me. It was a split-second | :19:16. | :19:21. | |
decision to stop this person, essentially I rugby tackled her to | :19:22. | :19:26. | |
stop her. The next thing I know, she was suffering from frostbite, the | :19:27. | :19:31. | |
gloves were off. And this is the lady that you saved. Sunita, she was | :19:32. | :19:36. | |
out of oxygen, she was in a very bad way, I had to get off the mountain, | :19:37. | :19:42. | |
I couldn't leave her there to die. A very brave decision, because at that | :19:43. | :19:46. | |
stage you didn't know what kind of assistance she would need, the | :19:47. | :19:48. | |
difficulties you would encounter, and you came across another | :19:49. | :19:55. | |
gentleman in a very dire situation. Yeah, me and the Sherpa got it | :19:56. | :20:01. | |
sorted as best we could, we had a spare bottle of oxygen, we got | :20:02. | :20:05. | |
gloves back on, and as we were heading down the mountain, there was | :20:06. | :20:09. | |
another guy trouble. We thought he was one of the rescue teams coming | :20:10. | :20:13. | |
up, but when we got to him, we realised he was in a lot of trouble, | :20:14. | :20:18. | |
so we decided to help him as well. And things just seem to get worse | :20:19. | :20:24. | |
from then on, I slipped into a few crevasses, we uncoupled from our | :20:25. | :20:30. | |
safety lines, getting down the mountain, we all ended up sliding | :20:31. | :20:34. | |
down, I thought it was the end of May, sliding down this blue eyes, | :20:35. | :20:38. | |
cannot stop yourself. I thought that was it, I was very angry with myself | :20:39. | :20:42. | |
to get myself in that situation. -- blue ice. I was a bit of a startled | :20:43. | :20:52. | |
rabbit in headlights, but I realised I had to help these people, I | :20:53. | :20:56. | |
decided to help the strongest person out of the two, Sunita. The other | :20:57. | :21:02. | |
guy was stuck in a crass, which properly saved his life... Well, he | :21:03. | :21:06. | |
passed away, but I went to help Sunita, I thought he would be OK | :21:07. | :21:11. | |
until the sun came up. I helped Sunita into a sleeping bag, we had a | :21:12. | :21:18. | |
flask of tea, we put her hands in it to warm her hands, and she managed | :21:19. | :21:21. | |
to get away with just losing her little finger on her hand. But like | :21:22. | :21:27. | |
I say, sadly, the other guy, with thoughts summary would help him in | :21:28. | :21:32. | |
daylight. The Sherpas try to bring him down the mountain, but he later | :21:33. | :21:37. | |
died. A reminder of just how treacherous embarking on this kind | :21:38. | :21:42. | |
of journey is. After that, then, you formed a friendship with Sunita, | :21:43. | :21:47. | |
understandably! Yeah. Yes, she keeps in touch with me, mainly my | :21:48. | :21:56. | |
girlfriend, we ask about each other's families. I remember | :21:57. | :22:02. | |
chatting to her in the tent at comedy, drinking hot tea, she was | :22:03. | :22:07. | |
telling me about her family. -- at Camp 4. Having gone through not just | :22:08. | :22:14. | |
one incident but a number of incidents, which is so scary, so | :22:15. | :22:18. | |
dangerous, a lot of people would say, I am never going to do that | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
again - but you are going back. Yeah, if you want to achieve your | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
dreams, there is an element of danger, it is relevant to what you | :22:27. | :22:31. | |
want to do. What you have got to understand, it is a harsh | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
environment, a harsh man done. It does take peoples lives, but to get | :22:36. | :22:40. | |
that close to the summit and not to be able to finish it off, that will | :22:41. | :22:46. | |
stay in the back of your mind. If we don't strike again, I have to give | :22:47. | :22:54. | |
it a fair shot. Are you more nervous? I would not save more | :22:55. | :22:57. | |
nervous, but I know what is coming this time. I know there will be a | :22:58. | :23:03. | |
lot of heartache, where I have to push myself, get myself out of the | :23:04. | :23:08. | |
sleeping bag in the morning, but I am excited, really excited to go | :23:09. | :23:12. | |
back and have another go at this beautiful mountain. You experienced | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
something like four separate explosions during active military | :23:17. | :23:19. | |
service, did you lose your eyesight in one eye? Yes, one of the Afghan | :23:20. | :23:29. | |
army soldiers I was patrolling with stepped on an IED, I got the blast | :23:30. | :23:32. | |
down the left-hand side of my face and lost my sight in my left one. So | :23:33. | :23:37. | |
more of a challenge than it would be for some people anyway, gosh, I | :23:38. | :23:41. | |
admire you! How does your girlfriend feel about it? She is very | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
supportive, 100% behind me. Obviously, this is all in the back | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
of mind, that things can go wrong, but we put it to one side. As a | :23:51. | :23:55. | |
family, we are focused on getting me to the summit. You have amazing | :23:56. | :23:58. | |
mental strength. And physical strength! Good luck, and keep us | :23:59. | :24:06. | |
posted, we will see you back here to hear about your successful bridging | :24:07. | :24:09. | |
of the summit. Fantastic, thank you very much. -- reaching. | :24:10. | :24:18. | |
You're watching Breakfast from BBC News, | :24:19. | :24:20. | |
time now for a look at the newspapers. | :24:21. | :24:21. | |
The writer Paul Vallely is here to tell us what's caught his eye. | :24:22. | :24:25. | |
Welcome back, Paul, where are you going to start? The Daily Mail story | :24:26. | :24:34. | |
about Jamie Oliver closing some of his restaurants, is chief executive | :24:35. | :24:41. | |
said that it was due to post-Brexit pressures. -- his. Clearly, his | :24:42. | :24:47. | |
customers do not agree, they have been saying it is high prices and | :24:48. | :24:55. | |
poor food! Obviously, you get a few who are disappointed with | :24:56. | :24:59. | |
everything, but it is quite striking that Brexit is being blamed. There | :25:00. | :25:04. | |
is another story in the Times, a front page about a donor who has | :25:05. | :25:11. | |
given ?1.2 million to the Tory party, saying he is going to stop | :25:12. | :25:16. | |
supporting it if Britain leaves the EU single market. And the paper has | :25:17. | :25:27. | |
a leader about Brexit, in which it kind of unpacks some of these | :25:28. | :25:30. | |
intentions. How can you believe these different stories about | :25:31. | :25:36. | |
Brexit? It is explaining that the chief economist of the Bank of | :25:37. | :25:42. | |
England was talking about a Michael Fish moment, when they got it wrong, | :25:43. | :25:47. | |
and they are saying the thing about Brexit is that we really don't know | :25:48. | :25:51. | |
what is happening still, and it could all unpack in a way in which | :25:52. | :25:56. | |
Jamie Oliver is using as an excuse at the moment. It is quite a good | :25:57. | :26:02. | |
context setting leader, it is worth reading, the Times leader on that. | :26:03. | :26:09. | |
Virtually every article has Brexit in there somewhat! We will be | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
talking to Joe Wicks, this clean living, amazing athlete, lots of | :26:15. | :26:17. | |
people following him, but you are talking about fat being back this | :26:18. | :26:21. | |
morning. Yes, speaking as someone who was on a died before Christmas, | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
lost a stone, put some of it back on, haven't had the dreaded way in | :26:27. | :26:33. | |
yet! -- a diet. This adds to the confusion, written by the business | :26:34. | :26:37. | |
editor of the Financial Times, she has been a Napier died which | :26:38. | :26:40. | |
consists of red meat and double cream, knocking back on the sugar, | :26:41. | :26:50. | |
dairy, alcohol. -- a peculiar diet. It is two pages long, and she says | :26:51. | :26:54. | |
halfway through that there is a lot of confusion, and no wonder the | :26:55. | :26:59. | |
British public is confused. The advice is so absolutely | :27:00. | :27:02. | |
contradictory, someone on the diet with was told off for eating an | :27:03. | :27:08. | |
apple, it is that bad. But what it all boils down to, it seems to me, | :27:09. | :27:13. | |
is that every diet makes you conscious of what you are eating, | :27:14. | :27:17. | |
and that makes you eat less, and that seems to be the truth behind | :27:18. | :27:21. | |
all the diets. The faddish nature of them is what stops you succeeding | :27:22. | :27:27. | |
very often. Every paper has an offer for some sort of diet or exercise | :27:28. | :27:36. | |
programme. I want to talk you about how a nap keeps you young, anyone | :27:37. | :27:41. | |
who works odd hours, learning to catnap is one of life's great | :27:42. | :27:45. | |
skills, and it can do our brain some good according to the Express. It is | :27:46. | :27:52. | |
also in the FT article, that sleep is good for losing weight, but this | :27:53. | :27:57. | |
tested people's memory and ability to do maths and various things. It | :27:58. | :28:02. | |
was in America, and it worked out that if you sleep for an hour every | :28:03. | :28:08. | |
afternoon, your ability to do things improves enormously. If you sleep | :28:09. | :28:11. | |
for less than an hour or more than an hour, it doesn't work quite so | :28:12. | :28:15. | |
well. Some of it is pretty common sense. I mean, people have been | :28:16. | :28:21. | |
having siestas in Europe for years, haven't they? What it says, | :28:22. | :28:28. | |
basically, is that there is a restorative function that sleep | :28:29. | :28:32. | |
brings, and your brain is kind of overtaxed, and you need to rest it. | :28:33. | :28:37. | |
Shall we try no?! God I was thinking about just going | :28:38. | :28:42. | |
home and climbing back in bed, actually! | :28:43. | :28:45. | |
Thank you so much for your time, sleep and dietary advice in the | :28:46. | :28:46. | |
papers. All the best. We're on BBC One until ten | :28:47. | :28:49. | |
o'clock this morning, when Donal Skehan takes over | :28:50. | :28:52. | |
in the Saturday Kitchen. It is looking fantastic this | :28:53. | :28:59. | |
morning, our special guest today has just dived into the studio, the | :29:00. | :29:04. | |
amazing Tom Daley, you are facing food heaven or food hell. Food | :29:05. | :29:09. | |
heaven is beef Wellington, very British. Great for the diet! And | :29:10. | :29:15. | |
food hell? Anything like massive bony fish I am not a fan. We are | :29:16. | :29:22. | |
also joined by two brilliant guests, Ching-He Huang, what is on the menu? | :29:23. | :29:27. | |
I will be making chicken, it is an American dish, very popular, | :29:28. | :29:31. | |
delicious. And making his debut on the show, Mark Greenaway, is | :29:32. | :29:37. | |
cooking? A very simple brown sugar baked cheesecake with tomato | :29:38. | :29:41. | |
caramel. We are all excited about the tomato caramelised smack and I | :29:42. | :29:45. | |
am a fan of cheesecake, we are in a good place, see you at ten, guys. -- | :29:46. | :29:54. | |
tomato caramel! We will all be looking at what he is eating! | :29:55. | :29:56. | |
Headlines and more food coming up. Hello, this is Breakfast | :29:57. | :30:30. | |
with Jon Kay and Rachel Burden. Coming up before nine, | :30:31. | :30:33. | |
Helen will have the weather. Mike will have all | :30:34. | :30:37. | |
of the FA cup sport. But first, a summary | :30:38. | :30:42. | |
of this morning's main news. The British Red Cross is warning | :30:43. | :30:46. | |
of a humanitarian crisis in NHS hospitals in England, | :30:47. | :30:49. | |
and is demanding the government allocates more money | :30:50. | :30:52. | |
to improve social care. Dozens of A departments | :30:53. | :30:55. | |
were forced to divert ambulances to other hospitals last week, | :30:56. | :30:57. | |
while one patient died after The Department of Health says it's | :30:58. | :31:01. | |
investing more money But Dr Mark Holland, | :31:02. | :31:07. | |
from the Society for Acute Medicine, said it had so far been | :31:08. | :31:12. | |
a "winter from hell". We have seen over the last week | :31:13. | :31:16. | |
or so that people who should be in a specialty bed are ending up | :31:17. | :31:20. | |
in a non-speciality bed, or are beds People I speak to across | :31:21. | :31:28. | |
the country, e-mails I have been receiving and things I have been | :31:29. | :31:32. | |
reading in the media, make us conclude that the term humanitarian | :31:33. | :31:35. | |
crisis has some validity. Police in Florida have | :31:36. | :31:42. | |
been questioning a man, after five people were killed | :31:43. | :31:44. | |
and eight injured in a shooting The suspect opened fire | :31:45. | :31:47. | |
in the baggage claim area, after seemingly retrieving his | :31:48. | :31:52. | |
weapon from his luggage. The FBI says it's pursuing all leads | :31:53. | :31:56. | |
and hasn't ruled out US intelligence officials have | :31:57. | :31:58. | |
released a report that claims Vladimir Putin personally ordered | :31:59. | :32:04. | |
a cyber campaign to try and help Donald Trump win | :32:05. | :32:07. | |
the presidential election. Last night, after being briefed | :32:08. | :32:10. | |
on the findings, Mr Trump said that hacking had had absolutely | :32:11. | :32:12. | |
no impact on the election outcome. His running mate, Mike Pence, | :32:13. | :32:15. | |
says a team will be set up The President-elect has made it very | :32:16. | :32:20. | |
clear that we're going to take aggressive action in the early days | :32:21. | :32:28. | |
of our new administration to combat cyber attacks and protect | :32:29. | :32:31. | |
the security of the American people from this type of | :32:32. | :32:40. | |
intrusion in the future. For the first time, the NHS | :32:41. | :32:44. | |
is providing disabled children with prosthetic limbs, | :32:45. | :32:46. | |
that are specially 13-year-old Ben from Brighton | :32:47. | :32:49. | |
was amongst the first to benefit, NHS England says it hopes | :32:50. | :32:53. | |
the programme will allow "several hundred" children a year to receive | :32:54. | :32:58. | |
limbs, allowing them A killer whale which was involved | :32:59. | :33:02. | |
in the deaths of three people and featured in an influential | :33:03. | :33:07. | |
documentary, has died Tilikum featured in the film | :33:08. | :33:09. | |
Blackfish, which led to a global campaign against the keeping | :33:10. | :33:14. | |
of orcas in captivity. Sea World says staff are "deeply | :33:15. | :33:19. | |
saddened" by the death of the whale, which was thought | :33:20. | :33:22. | |
to be 36 years old. Those are the main | :33:23. | :33:28. | |
stories this morning. The question is, tomorrow morning | :33:29. | :33:37. | |
will be be talking about a giant-killing upset in the FA Cup? | :33:38. | :33:42. | |
May be a Stourbridge player, Eastleigh, Lincoln? Manchester City | :33:43. | :33:49. | |
have certainly made their mark. It was a first FA Cup paste work Pep | :33:50. | :33:52. | |
Guardiola, their manager. He relished it. Interesting to see if | :33:53. | :34:00. | |
this helps their league form. Before their FA Cup third round tie, if -- | :34:01. | :34:05. | |
Slaven Bilic suggested Manchester City was not a confident team and a | :34:06. | :34:09. | |
more. But they responded in emphatic style. | :34:10. | :34:12. | |
City were already out of sight by half time - | :34:13. | :34:15. | |
leading 3-0 thanks to an own goal, a Yaya Toure penalty, | :34:16. | :34:17. | |
The gloss on an impressive night was added by John Stones. | :34:18. | :34:22. | |
The England defender scored his first goal | :34:23. | :34:23. | |
He needed goal-line technology to confirm that he'd | :34:24. | :34:27. | |
Hopefully it can help us to make our players believers, | :34:28. | :34:34. | |
that they are good enough to play every game, and try, | :34:35. | :34:39. | |
in both our fans and the people in Manchester City, and they can | :34:40. | :34:42. | |
They know what happened in the past, but we are good guys. | :34:43. | :34:51. | |
So they run a lot, fight a lot, playing good. | :34:52. | :34:53. | |
We gave everything but as a team it wasn't good enough. It was nowhere | :34:54. | :35:10. | |
near the performance we had here against Man United when we were much | :35:11. | :35:18. | |
more compact. That is the disappointment. | :35:19. | :35:21. | |
It will be a special FA Cup reunion, today, for one of the members | :35:22. | :35:24. | |
of the treble-winning Manchester United team of 1999. | :35:25. | :35:26. | |
Former Netherlands centre half Jaap Stam is now the manager | :35:27. | :35:28. | |
of Championship side Reading, who go to Old Trafford hunting | :35:29. | :35:31. | |
As a player, there is nothing better than to play over there, | :35:32. | :35:37. | |
in a stadium like that in front of so many fans. | :35:38. | :35:42. | |
And we know, as well, we have our own fans over | :35:43. | :35:44. | |
Hopefully they are joining in and supporting us. | :35:45. | :36:02. | |
The five lower league teams left have a fair chance of getting into | :36:03. | :36:09. | |
the next round. The lowest ranked team Stourbridge Arab Wycombe | :36:10. | :36:14. | |
Wanderers. Some potentially tricky away ties for Crystal Palace, | :36:15. | :36:22. | |
Norwich and Arsenal. You have got one of the best teams in Europe | :36:23. | :36:26. | |
coming. A manager who has graced the Premier League for 20 odd years. The | :36:27. | :36:32. | |
original invincible is against the modern-day invincible. It is a | :36:33. | :36:35. | |
fantastic occasion. It will be a sell-out. The third round of the FA | :36:36. | :36:40. | |
Cup. There is always a shock. Hopefully that will be the case on | :36:41. | :36:46. | |
Saturday night. He knows how to create an upset. Remember when is | :36:47. | :36:50. | |
Leeds United team beat Manchester United a couple of years ago? | :36:51. | :36:53. | |
Sir Andy Murray will play world number two | :36:54. | :36:56. | |
Novak Djokovic in the final of the Qatar Open today. | :36:57. | :36:58. | |
Murray beat Czech Tomas Berdych in straight sets in their semi | :36:59. | :37:01. | |
final, to reach his fourth final in Doha. | :37:02. | :37:03. | |
The win was Murray's 28th in a row on the ATP Tour, | :37:04. | :37:05. | |
and another title and victory over his main rival would be | :37:06. | :37:08. | |
the ideal preparation for the Australian Open, | :37:09. | :37:10. | |
The ultimate goal was to find a way to win the match. | :37:11. | :37:16. | |
Maybe at the beginning of the year you are focusing a little bit more | :37:17. | :37:20. | |
on yourself, and how you are playing, and how | :37:21. | :37:23. | |
you want to play, moving into the Aussie Open, | :37:24. | :37:28. | |
rather than just solely focusing on the outcome. | :37:29. | :37:34. | |
Newcastle Falcons produced a stunning late comeback to beat | :37:35. | :37:37. | |
Bath 24-22 in rugby union's Aviva Premiership. | :37:38. | :37:40. | |
Bath led by 12 points half way through the second half, | :37:41. | :37:44. | |
but Ben Harris barged his way over to draw Newcastle level less | :37:45. | :37:48. | |
Man of the match Joel Hodgson kept his nerve to slot | :37:49. | :37:54. | |
home the conversion, and send Bath to their | :37:55. | :37:57. | |
Scarlets also came from behind to beat Ulster 16-13, | :37:58. | :38:04. | |
The winning score was a penalty try - Scarlets scrum half Aled Davies | :38:05. | :38:11. | |
was on the receiving end of a high tackle, as he tried | :38:12. | :38:14. | |
Elsewhere, Leinster beat Zebre, and Newport Gwent Dragons beat Treviso. | :38:15. | :38:20. | |
This afternoon, Sir Mo Farah is in action | :38:21. | :38:22. | |
The four-time Olympic champion - who insists he's happy | :38:23. | :38:25. | |
just to be called Mo - was surprisingly beaten | :38:26. | :38:30. | |
He's using the event as part of his preparation for the track | :38:31. | :38:36. | |
World Championships in London later this year, and admits he'll | :38:37. | :38:39. | |
have his work cut out against some cross country | :38:40. | :38:41. | |
They will want to hunt me down and beat me as quick as possible. | :38:42. | :38:53. | |
That is what makes Cross-Country exciting. | :38:54. | :38:55. | |
But it suits certain athletes better. | :38:56. | :39:04. | |
I used to love Cross-Country. I wasn't one of those who tried to | :39:05. | :39:30. | |
escape. I was quite good. It is quite a tough event, especially when | :39:31. | :39:34. | |
it is more the in the winter. It is a completely different skill to | :39:35. | :39:37. | |
track running. It takes different muscles afterwards. Indeed. Good | :39:38. | :39:47. | |
luck, Mo Farah. If there was an upset today, I think | :39:48. | :39:50. | |
it could be one of the Premier League teams going to a Championship | :39:51. | :39:54. | |
team. Maybe Crystal Palace at Norwich. | :39:55. | :40:01. | |
Enjoy it. It is also a day that has been named | :40:02. | :40:12. | |
Sunshine Saturday. Today is predicted to be | :40:13. | :40:17. | |
the busiest day of the year It's being dubbed Sunshine Saturday, | :40:18. | :40:19. | |
with tens of thousands But is it really | :40:20. | :40:25. | |
the best day to book? The Independent's travel editor | :40:26. | :40:28. | |
Simon Calder and Alistair Rowland from Co-operative | :40:29. | :40:30. | |
Travel join us now. We were talking about this area. Is | :40:31. | :40:40. | |
it really the best day to go for a bargain when thousands of other | :40:41. | :40:42. | |
people are trying to book at the same time? Presumably travel agents | :40:43. | :40:49. | |
are excited. Yes. If you know what you want to go and you want to | :40:50. | :40:53. | |
commit to the best rooms and the best resort, now is the time to buy. | :40:54. | :40:59. | |
Today is the biggest single booking day. 1.5% of all bookings in the | :41:00. | :41:05. | |
entire year happened today. Are you saying categorically that he did not | :41:06. | :41:11. | |
increase your prices today? No. There is a myth about wait until | :41:12. | :41:15. | |
late to book. I think Simon advocated. Actually, booking early | :41:16. | :41:23. | |
is best. The deals on now, low deposits, free kids, good rooms. You | :41:24. | :41:27. | |
have all of these travel agents competing with each other today? | :41:28. | :41:33. | |
Yes, it is a busy day for the travel industry and ourselves as well. If I | :41:34. | :41:39. | |
may, it is a very good time to look at a holiday if you know exactly | :41:40. | :41:44. | |
where you want to go. But don't just walk into the first travel agent or | :41:45. | :41:48. | |
might go to the first online age into you see, shop around. It is a | :41:49. | :41:53. | |
great year to be a holiday-maker because, for example, in the south | :41:54. | :41:57. | |
of Britain you have holidays expanding at Birmingham, Stansted, | :41:58. | :42:02. | |
and Thomas Cook and Monarch are fighting back. If you are in the | :42:03. | :42:05. | |
north, you can take advantage of the fact the school holidays in Scotland | :42:06. | :42:12. | |
are earlier than in England. Shop around. See who has got the best | :42:13. | :42:17. | |
deal. Beware of going through an odd online travel agent you haven't | :42:18. | :42:21. | |
heard of. Over places that have been recommended. Or talk to a human | :42:22. | :42:27. | |
being. That is always a good idea. If you don't have to go in the | :42:28. | :42:32. | |
school holidays, just relax. There is so much stuff around, | :42:33. | :42:35. | |
particularly in the next couple of months. If somebody is prepared to | :42:36. | :42:40. | |
think a bit differently, and go somewhere they haven't been before | :42:41. | :42:43. | |
but do not want to spend lots of money, what is hot? What is hot in | :42:44. | :42:50. | |
terms of where people are going is Spain. It had a record year last | :42:51. | :42:54. | |
year and it will do again this year. Along with Portugal, Italy, Greece. | :42:55. | :42:58. | |
If you want sure good value, it is the former Yugoslavia, particularly | :42:59. | :43:05. | |
Macedonia in the far south. Romania and Bulgaria offering good deals. | :43:06. | :43:08. | |
That will help you stretch your pound. This is the first summer when | :43:09. | :43:12. | |
we will be feeling the pain of the drop in sterling. One viewer has a | :43:13. | :43:20. | |
couple of weeks off in February. Last year they went to Barbados. | :43:21. | :43:23. | |
This year they are tempted by Mexico. Which Terry would you | :43:24. | :43:29. | |
recommend? If you can cope with the long flight, Mexico is terrific | :43:30. | :43:37. | |
value. Can Kuhn. American standards, Caribbean field. Fantastic value for | :43:38. | :43:42. | |
money. At the moment the average price is only ?4 higher than last | :43:43. | :43:47. | |
year. Fuel is increasing. So airlines hedge their fuel. If you | :43:48. | :43:51. | |
leave it late, that price is more likely to be offensive. Cuba is | :43:52. | :43:58. | |
changing rapidly. Mexico will still be as lovely as ever in five years. | :43:59. | :44:04. | |
Cuba will be very different. That is a possibility to do now as well. | :44:05. | :44:09. | |
David from Shetland has booked his holidays for the summer and is | :44:10. | :44:12. | |
thinking about next New Year. He is very organised. Have you got a tip? | :44:13. | :44:19. | |
Only if you're planning to fly long haul to Australia, New Zealand, the | :44:20. | :44:24. | |
Caribbean or South Africa, you probably should be booking right now | :44:25. | :44:27. | |
because you will get the pick of the airline seats and the fares. You | :44:28. | :44:32. | |
have got to get organised. Get those leave request in as well. Thank you | :44:33. | :44:35. | |
very much indeed. See you in the summer. Helen is | :44:36. | :44:40. | |
going to tell us what the weather is going to do today. | :44:41. | :44:45. | |
The summer will hopefully have something warmer and less foggy then | :44:46. | :44:49. | |
we are at the moment. It is quite great. It is not going anywhere. | :44:50. | :44:54. | |
This is Hill fog that has just settled at low levels. It is giving | :44:55. | :45:00. | |
some nasty conditions. This is Moray. We have found some sunshine | :45:01. | :45:08. | |
in Wales. This was sent in from Carmarthenshire. A little bit of | :45:09. | :45:11. | |
brightness. I have seen the latest satellite picture. It is not ready | :45:12. | :45:16. | |
to show on air yet. A good deal of sunshine in the northern half of | :45:17. | :45:19. | |
Scotland. A little bit in north-eastern England. For most, it | :45:20. | :45:25. | |
is grave. Drizzly, dank weather as well as the fog in the South. It is | :45:26. | :45:34. | |
not going anywhere quickly. It will probably become an issue for the | :45:35. | :45:37. | |
South and west later. Visibility down to 50 to 100 metres. It is | :45:38. | :45:43. | |
combined with that drizzle. Some of the worst affected areas for fog cup | :45:44. | :45:47. | |
in the West Midlands, into the Cheshire plains and the Vale of | :45:48. | :45:52. | |
York. It is not as foggy in Scotland and Northern Ireland but it is just | :45:53. | :45:56. | |
as cloudy. Good spells of sunshine in northern Scotland. Hopefully a | :45:57. | :46:01. | |
few more breaks in the cloud this afternoon. Overnight the Thai | :46:02. | :46:05. | |
returns, as will be missed and fog. It allows us to have a relatively | :46:06. | :46:12. | |
mild night. Temperatures do not fall away. Fog will be the concern | :46:13. | :46:18. | |
tomorrow morning. Some thick patches. We won't have the weather | :46:19. | :46:24. | |
front as close to the south-west. It should be drier in contrast. Rain in | :46:25. | :46:28. | |
the north-west. It looks as if it should be a large the dry picture | :46:29. | :46:33. | |
for the third round of the FA Cup. There will be subtle mild. -- it | :46:34. | :46:43. | |
will be relatively mild in this country. Considerably warmer than | :46:44. | :46:48. | |
parts of Europe. Freezing rain in the low countries. Snow in parts of | :46:49. | :46:54. | |
Greece. Temperatures expected to get to -23 in Moscow tomorrow. Things | :46:55. | :46:58. | |
will change. Low pressure moving into the north and west. This | :46:59. | :47:05. | |
weather system will give some snow. Something a little chillier towards | :47:06. | :47:08. | |
the end of the week. A little breeze. That is it from me this | :47:09. | :47:12. | |
morning. See you tomorrow. Thank you very | :47:13. | :47:16. | |
much. If you've been hunting online | :47:17. | :47:17. | |
for recipes that won't mess up your new year resolutions, | :47:18. | :47:19. | |
then you've probably came Over Christmas, he knocked | :47:20. | :47:22. | |

social media videos. I'm Joe Wicks, the body coach. Get | :47:35. | :47:58. | |

Chicken breast, mixed peppers, mushrooms... Stick the lid on. | :48:31. | :48:42. | |
Joe Wicks, welcome back to Breakfast. How are you? I'm good. | :48:43. | :48:49. | |
It's lovely seeing those areas. Do you enjoy watching yourself? No, I | :48:50. | :48:56. | |
don't watch them that often. It has been a mad year. Started with you | :48:57. | :49:01. | |
training in a park? Yes, I was training in a park and garden | :49:02. | :49:07. | |
Instagram Schering recipe ideas. I never predicted it. I never planned | :49:08. | :49:12. | |
on writing a book or having a TV show. It has just built momentum. | :49:13. | :49:16. | |
That social media thing is the reason you are who and what you are | :49:17. | :49:21. | |
now, that has made you? Without a doubt. I still think I would be | :49:22. | :49:26. | |
doing boot camps in Richmond. It is something you can harness if you use | :49:27. | :49:29. | |
it in the right way. I have been consistent with my content. Free | :49:30. | :49:35. | |
videos. Facebook live workouts. It is great building a community. | :49:36. | :49:40. | |
People can access your regime and don't necessarily have to pay for | :49:41. | :49:46. | |
it? Yes, that is how it started. I really believe in giving out free | :49:47. | :49:50. | |
content. I want people to still have an access to recipes and content. | :49:51. | :49:58. | |
What is the basic idea of lean in 15? It is basically cooking healthy | :49:59. | :50:04. | |
food at home that you can eat, burgers, pizza is... That is sweet | :50:05. | :50:12. | |
potato fries. That is healthy home-made fish fingers covered in | :50:13. | :50:19. | |
red crumbs and coconut oil. Healthy fish and chips. You don't need to | :50:20. | :50:26. | |
cut calories and deprive yourself. Healthy fat as proteins and carbs at | :50:27. | :50:30. | |
the right time, as long as you combine it with the exercise. I know | :50:31. | :50:34. | |
you have had some grief this week. There has been criticism saying that | :50:35. | :50:40. | |
some of the things you have been making has been expensive. What do | :50:41. | :50:45. | |
you say? Unless you are shopping in Harrods and buying caviar, I don't | :50:46. | :50:49. | |
know how they managed to say it cost ?600 a month. All of my social media | :50:50. | :50:58. | |
followers are doing it for ?50 a week. It wasn't correct. Healthy | :50:59. | :51:02. | |
food, you have got to fuel your body right. If you're cooking for the | :51:03. | :51:07. | |
family and buying in bulk, you are better off financially than eating | :51:08. | :51:11. | |
out every day. Overall, living on the lean in 15 lifestyle is better. | :51:12. | :51:19. | |
It says here you are responsible for 25% spike in broccoli sales. Is that | :51:20. | :51:25. | |
true? The grocer industry said that. I call them midget trees for fun. | :51:26. | :51:31. | |
Everyone has started using them in their recipes. Kids are loving them. | :51:32. | :51:36. | |
Apparently it has increased by 25%. I am not going to invest in midget | :51:37. | :51:44. | |
trees! I'm not a shareholder! I do like broccoli. I like Brock -- raw | :51:45. | :51:49. | |
broccoli and spinach. Broccoli in some soy sauce is nice. Do you ever | :51:50. | :51:54. | |
have anything that is unhealthy? Do you ever stopped at a fast-food | :51:55. | :52:00. | |
place have a burger and enjoy it? Last night, I'll be honest, I | :52:01. | :52:08. | |
ordered room service. I had a burger and chips and a bottle of Coke, and | :52:09. | :52:13. | |
a mass of the minibar. It is all about balance and moderation. I | :52:14. | :52:20. | |
fancied a blow out. How long do you work out for in the morning? 15 to | :52:21. | :52:25. | |
25 minutes of high intensity working out. I do the you Tube videos as | :52:26. | :52:30. | |
well. I believe that anyone can be lean all year round as long as they | :52:31. | :52:35. | |
fit into their lifestyle. You can do it at home, follow the workouts and | :52:36. | :52:40. | |
the recipes and we will be lean and 15. People see the likes of you in | :52:41. | :52:45. | |
magazines and they think, it is all or nothing. You are saying you can | :52:46. | :52:52. | |
balance it? Yes, especially this time of the year. The worst thing | :52:53. | :52:55. | |
anybody could do is start a low-calorie diet now. It is not | :52:56. | :52:59. | |
sustainable. Work hard, train hard and you can enjoy some treats and | :53:00. | :53:05. | |
stay lean and maintain your body all year round. Congratulations on all | :53:06. | :53:10. | |
of your success. I hope it goes well for 2017. Thank you for having me. | :53:11. | :53:16. | |
Some chocolates on the way out. I do love a chocolate! | :53:17. | :53:22. | |
The BBC Music Sound Of list aims to predicts the most exciting | :53:23. | :53:25. | |
new music for the year ahead, and with previous winners including | :53:26. | :53:28. | |
Adele, Sam Smith and Ellie Goulding, it's got a pretty good track record. | :53:29. | :53:31. | |
That a lot delivered to. -- that is a lot to live up two. | :53:32. | :53:39. | |
Now soul singer Ray BLK has beaten off stiff competition to be | :53:40. | :53:42. | |
It is the first time an unsigned artist has won the honour. | :53:43. | :53:46. | |
We'll be speaking to Ray in just a moment. | :53:47. | :53:48. | |
But first, let's have a look at her song, Chill Out. | :53:49. | :53:58. | |
# I told you I was trouble when we first met. | :53:59. | :54:08. | |
# I guess you never got the message. # I hate to be so God damn | :54:09. | :54:12. | |
depressive. # Bert Wemp broken heart has turned | :54:13. | :54:16. | |
me into a savage. -- but my broken heart. | :54:17. | :54:23. | |
# I only want you when I'm lonely. # On a late-night, on Friday. | :54:24. | :54:31. | |
# I'll only want you when I'm lonely, on a late-night, on Friday. | :54:32. | :54:41. | |
Ray joins us now. Good morning. Great to have you with us. Talking | :54:42. | :54:48. | |
about that particular song. The video is beautiful. How do you get | :54:49. | :54:52. | |
it all together given that you don't have a record label? It was quite a | :54:53. | :54:58. | |
task. I have a really great team together. My manager listened to my | :54:59. | :55:04. | |
vision when I said to him that I wanted to go to Jamaica and film | :55:05. | :55:09. | |
these goalie Queen's. The goalie Queen's are transgender men who live | :55:10. | :55:15. | |
in the goalie, which is basically the sewers of Jamaica. They are | :55:16. | :55:20. | |
ostracised from the community. They face daily abuse. I felt it was | :55:21. | :55:23. | |
something people were not aware of. I wanted to include them in my | :55:24. | :55:28. | |
video. This is some accolade you have been given. The sound of 2017 | :55:29. | :55:35. | |
by BBC music. An amazing achievement. Shall we just see the | :55:36. | :55:39. | |
moment when you found out you worthy winner. | :55:40. | :55:48. | |
Oh, my God! You are joking?! Oh my God! I genuinely can't believe it! | :55:49. | :55:59. | |
You owe us 17 grand for the microphone that you broke at that | :56:00. | :56:03. | |
point! You have been able to compute it now. I don't think so. It still | :56:04. | :56:09. | |
doesn't feel real. It still hasn't sunk in. I found out a little while | :56:10. | :56:15. | |
ago. I'm still in shock, really. Must be shocking when you look at | :56:16. | :56:19. | |
the list of people that have won. Exactly. No pressure. Tell us a | :56:20. | :56:25. | |
little bit about your musical journey. You have gone from gospel | :56:26. | :56:30. | |
to grime, or that the double R sound. How did you get there? It | :56:31. | :56:36. | |
started with gospel. I was raised in a church, joined a gospel choir, | :56:37. | :56:40. | |
joint every choir I could. Then I found the music that I loved and | :56:41. | :56:45. | |
fell in love with, bar hip hop. Slowly I cultivated my sound. All of | :56:46. | :56:51. | |
my inspirations helped me do that. You were lucky in a way to be | :56:52. | :56:55. | |
surrounded by talented friends. They have been successful in the music | :56:56. | :57:00. | |
business? Absolutely. I was once in a band where I was about 13 to 16 | :57:01. | :57:05. | |
with Emenike, he lived around the corner. It was himself, his brother | :57:06. | :57:12. | |
and a couple of other boys. He ended up working with all sorts? Yes, a | :57:13. | :57:19. | |
megastar. Howdy this prize will help you, or assist you to do what you | :57:20. | :57:27. | |
want to do? The danger is you get pigeonholed. How do you keep | :57:28. | :57:31. | |
control? I think me being an unsigned artist is what helps me | :57:32. | :57:35. | |
keep control. It means that everything I do can remain authentic | :57:36. | :57:40. | |
and genuine and come spread from me rather than a label making sure that | :57:41. | :57:44. | |
everything is in a particular way and telling me how to sound. You | :57:45. | :57:49. | |
don't want to be signed? I don't know what I would want to do in the | :57:50. | :57:54. | |
future. If it is the right deal for me, I may sign. There must be people | :57:55. | :58:00. | |
already approaching you? I mean, yeah Mac! Have had few | :58:01. | :58:05. | |
conversations. I am enjoying my freedom. Are you a control freak? | :58:06. | :58:12. | |
Slightly! I am a bit of a control freak. I liked the fact that the | :58:13. | :58:15. | |
people who support me know the music is coming straight from me and know | :58:16. | :58:19. | |
that everything I put out is me. I think we have a stronger connection | :58:20. | :58:23. | |
because of that. That is really important in the music business, | :58:24. | :58:27. | |
particularly when you are young, to know you have -- to have the | :58:28. | :58:31. | |
integrity to know what you want is pretty impressive. | :58:32. | :58:35. | |
We were talking to Joe Wicks about social media. It helps you as well? | :58:36. | :58:41. | |
Definitely. I feel like I am where I am because of social media and the | :58:42. | :58:44. | |
Internet in general. I have been able to share so much with people | :58:45. | :58:48. | |
who probably wouldn't have heard my music before. Thank you so much for | :58:49. | :58:53. | |
coming in. Good luck and congratulations. Amazing talent. | :58:54. | :58:58. | |
That is it from us today. Ben and Shannon are here tomorrow. Have a | :58:59. | :59:05. | |
good. -- have a good day. Goodbye. | :59:06. | :59:07. |
