19/01/2017 Breakfast

with Charlie Stayt and Steph McGovern.

British holidaymakers begin arriving back from The Gambia,

amid growing concerns of political unrest in the west African state

it was very scary and the local people were crying and worried about

their children and they have no work.

Thousands more tourists are still waiting to be flown home

as a deadline for a political agreement passes.

Good morning, it's Thursday 19th January.

Theresa May heads to Switzerland to explain her Brexit plan to world

business leaders, as she's warned that leaving the EU could mean

We heard from big business but how about small firms that import and

export from Europe? What would leaving the single market mean that

for them? The race to find vaccines for three

deadly diseases which experts fear could spark a global

health emergency. In sport, Johanna Konta has reached

the third round of the Australian Open and

Liverpool are through to the fourth round of the FA Cup,

but they needed Lucas Leiva's first goal in seven years to make it past

these students are off to Washington to perform for Donald Trump at his

inauguration. We will have more from John in to blow in about 20 minutes

time. And Carol has the weather. Good morning. The weather today is

similar to the last few days and it will be like that for the next few.

Cloud across many areas with a frosty start for the South. Other

parts of the UK today will see breaks in the cloud and I will tell

you where in 15 minutes. Hundreds of British holidaymakers

have landed back in the UK from The Gambia over concerns

of a worsening political crisis. The Foreign Office is continuing

to advise people to avoid all but essential travel

to the country, after its outgoing President refused to meet a midnight

deadline to handover power. Back home sooner than they thought

but relieved to be safe. These passengers landed at Manchester in

the early hours and thousands more will fly home today after their

holidays ended with the threat of violent conflict. It was very scary

and the local people were crying and worried about their children. My

family is still there. My daughter with her baby, my first daughter.

They are not the ones who have left. Over 25,000 citizens have fled to

neighbouring synagogue as the threat of a military invasion looms. This

crisis centres on one man refusing to buckle to pressure from original

alliance now surrounding his tiny nation. Yahya Jammeh initially

conceded defeat in last month's election after 22 years in power but

he changed his mind claiming the vote had been fraudulent. The man

who defeated him, Adama Barrow, fled to Senegal but remains confident he

will sworn in later today. Troops from Senegal and Ghana are now

gathered along the border and Nigeria has sent fighter jets and a

warship to the area. They have asked for UN permission to intervene in

after their deadline for the President to step down has expired.

While hope exists a peaceful solution, thousands of tourists have

an anxious wait to leave the country.

Theresa May will outline her Brexit strategy to business and political

leaders at the World Economic Forum in the Swiss resort of Davos today.

The Prime Minister will seek to convince her audience,

many of whom opposed Britain leaving the EU,

that it is possible to make a political and economic

It comes just days after Mrs May confirmed her plan does include

Britain leaving the European single market.

Our business correspondent, Tanya Beckett is in Davos

So, Tanya, the first time the Prime Minister will be facing business

leaders since the plan for Brexit was announced on Tuesday. What sort

of reception do you think she will get? I think they welcome the

clarity that she gave. That is the response I have been hearing. She

will want to rapidly talk to bankers as the Wall Street and he just be

see say they need to set up some sort of solid operation is in what

is going to remain of the European Union. She will need to talk to them

rapidly. Otherwise it is going to be very difficult for her to expand

exactly on what she said earlier in the week in terms of what Britain

wants to leave. She is going to say to business leaders here we are open

for business in Britain. That is, after all, a pitch to other

businesses. An investment pitch. She will want to put her best foot

forward and what she said which is that Britain is turning outwards,

not inwards and the fact that it is leaving the European Union does not

mean that Britain, that the United Kingdom is not in fact not in the

mood to trade. However, on the other side of the negotiation we have the

Europeans here who are still digging their heels in. Let's hear from the

former Finance minister of France that he is now the European

Commission up for economic and financial affairs. It must be clear

that you can not have all of the advantages of being a member of the

club when you are out of the club. I think our British friends, who

invented clubs, can understand that. If you are here, you are in, if you

were out, you are out. There is no free access, it is not a free lunch.

I think it is worth reminding ourselves that there is a broader

picture here. Britain is not the only country that is looking to

sever trade ties with partners. Remember the United States is

discussing Mexico and other countries as well saying that

globalisation has not been an unmitigated success so companies are

now asking what can we do, because automation is also part of job loss,

not just offshore or in, what can we do to reassure workers that they

have a future? Scientists say they're working

to deal with three diseases which they fear could cause

global health emergencies. A group of charities and governments

have committed more than 370 million to developing vaccines for

Middle East Respiratory Syndrome, Lassa fever and Nipah virus,

as our global health correspondent These majestic creatures are

believed to be brooding Middle East and respiratory symptom. The virus

was first identified here in Saudi Arabia in 2012, around one third of

those infected die. This lap in Oxford is developing a vaccine to

protect people. It is one of the most advanced versions out there. If

this vaccine works it could still take a decade or so to get it to

those who need it. Historically, money for these of skua viruses has

not been forthcoming in the regulatory process is long and

complex. Scientists are also developing vaccines for net virus,

which kills people in Bangladesh and Lassa fever which already claims at

5000 lives in west Africa every year. The research charity the

welcome trust as part of this new coalition which aims to develop and

test vaccines for these three viruses in the next five years for a

we have been lucky so far but the world has major gaps for infections

we know about which could cause a bowler like events and then spread

around the world quickly. That puts the world in a very vulnerable

place. There is no way to know which virus will strike next but it is

hoped that putting time and money into developing new vaccines now

could stop the next small outbreak becoming the next global health

emergency. And after seven we'll be

speaking to a professor of Infectious Diseases and Global

Health about the research. Tomorrow Donald Trump will become

the 45th President of the United States, ten weeks after winning the

election. Yesterday he tweeted a photo of himself riding his

inaugural address as saying that he was looking forward to Friday.

Meanwhile Barack Obama gave his last press conference as head of state

and offered his successor advice on the presidency. I can tell you, and

this is something I have told him, that this is a job of such magnitude

that you can not do it by yourself. You are enormously reliant on a

team. The former US president,

George Bush senior, has been moved to intensive care in the hospital

in Texas where he has been receiving treatment for pneumonia

since Saturday. Mr Bush, who is 92, is said to be

stable after undergoing a procedure under sedation to

ease his breathing. His wife, Barbara, who is 91,

has been admitted to the same hospital in Dallas as a precaution,

suffering from fatigue and a cough. The government's being urged to make

sure all victims of crime in England and Wales can make statements

about how it's affected them. The Ministry of Justice says it

will announce plans "in due course" The Victims Commissioner says only

a small number of people are currently being

given the opportunity. We need now to have victims rights

and an establishment that gives them the quality, respect and actually

the protection that they should quite rightly have because they have

lost a loved one. This review shows that enough is enough and I am

working with government to ensure that the victims have the rates they

truly deserve to give them respect and dignity and the protection that

they should have to ensure that they feel that voices being listened to.

60% of primates are now threatened with extinction because of human

activities, according to new research published

An international assessment, led by British scientists,

has found if urgent action isn't taken, our closest biological

But while the human population continues to grow, most

of our fellow primates are now sliding towards extinction.

This international team of scientists trawled

through the data on more than 500 primate species,

revealing a looming extinction crisis.

They estimate that 60% of primate species are now threatened

with extinction, and 75% have populations that are in decline.

These guys are ring-tailed lemurs, and they are just one of the primate

species that's been assessed in this new global study.

As nice as it is to see them thriving here in captivity,

their natural habitat is disappearing fast.

And it's human activity that's driving that.

Forest habitat that these animals rely on is being destroyed,

primarily for agriculture and logging.

The forest provides essential services for people. They help in

mitigating climate change by being carbon stocks. They help in

providing clear water for people. pollinations so people

can grow their crops. Reversing these declines means

looking closely at where we source products like timber,

palm oil and meat, making sure destruction of tropical

forests is not part An air quality alert's been issued

in London for today, Air pollution is expected to be poor

across areas of the capital. People who have heart or lung

problems, or the elderly, are being advised to

reduce strenuous activity In the first five days of 2017,

London breached its legal limits When a dog takes on a tiger you

would think there is only one winner. In the case of this wild

duck it faced down a male Sumatran tiger in Australia... The duck flew

into the enclosure, the Tiger gave chase but everytime the tiger closed

on it... The duck gets away! The park staff said the duck versus

tiger game lasted about ten minutes. That is one brave dark. I would be

out of there like a shot. Of all places that a dog would choose to

swim, you would choose this spot. There you go. The duck is safe as

well. I think the Tiger is having an off day, a slow day. Good morning.

Johanna Konta has won at the Australian Open. There is a woman

who has really worked on her game in the last year and she has worked on

not just her game but also her attitude to matches. She does not

get stressed, she has learned to let go of anxiety when she is losing a

set. She has worked really hard and it is great to see that. Heather

Watson and Kyle Edmund are both out now. Novak Djokovic is on court at

the moment. He fought back after losing the first set to be unseeded

Denis Istomin. It is currently one set each and Novak Djokovic is one

break up in the third. Liverpool could only score one all. The site

scored in the first half to ensure that they will be in the next round.

There have been many tributes this morning to Rachel, the former

England women's captain. She was also vice president of the

Wolverhampton Wanderers captained England between 1966 and 1978. She

also played in the first ever women's match at Lord's. We will be

talking about her plenty this morning.

The quarter-final line-up is complete at the snooker. Mark Selby

booked himself with a narrow win over Mark Williams. He will face

last year's runner up Barry Hawkins. He slashed Shaun Murphy by six

frames to one. Shall we have a look at the papers?

I wondered... What position does he play?

He has done really well. Lucas was obviously delighted. Lots of fancy

testing that Liverpool perhaps could have scored more against Plymouth

Argyle. Still a win.

Let's have a look at the front pages. Significant on the front page

of the Sun. Theresa May writing in the Sun newspaper. Obviously on the

subject of Brexit. Some of the quotes from what she has said,

specifically she is talking about a message to ordinary working people.

We will make this a Brexit that works for ordinary working people,

is the phrase, by ensuring that every worker enjoys the rights and

protections they deserve. A story on Britain's trade deals.

Britain has already begun informal trade negotiations with several

countries across the world, as Liam Fox revealed today. He says Brexit

is the key to Britain's future and prosperity.

And cricket mourns the pioneer Rachel Flynt.

Away from Brexit, bin collections. The nightmare of monthly in

collections. People saying they had to burn rubbish or beg neighbours to

take in their waste. It is a massive achievement getting your right --

your bin is right. We had a long conversation yesterday

about bins. One of the problems of modern life.

It was an achievement when I got the right bin out.

We did mention that Rachael Heyhoe Flint is all over the papers. So

many achievements to talk about. She was a groundbreaker, she was iconic.

She played in the first ever Women's World Cup. In fact, this year

England's women will play the World Cup and they pretty much everything

to this woman. She died yesterday at the age of 77. She spent the late

years of her life nursing her husband, but she was also goalkeeper

for the England women's hockey team. She broke the malt in the 70s. In

the 60s and 70s. She was highly unusual and one of life's

enthusiasts. Thank you, Sally.

Really quickly, I want to show you one thing. You will like this. Dan

Evans. Hasn't got a sponsor, had to go and buy a shirt in Australia when

he got there. $19 each and he bought eight of them.

We will talk more about that later. Let's find out what's happening with

the weather forecast. How is it looking?

This morning it is looking fairly cloudy. What we had yesterday is

what we will have today, with a couple of exceptions. Another cloudy

day, with some mist around. Most of that will lift quickly, as will any

patchy fog. To give you an idea of the temperatures, the military

yesterday. Where we have the clear skies in the south and south-east

it's a cold start. Come further north and it isn't as cold. Here we

have the weather front and as we push into Scotland and Northern

Ireland, temperatures are a bit higher. As we go through the day

what you will find is that we will hang on to high pressure. High

pressure has been dominating our pressure for the last while and it

will continue to do so. The weather we have at the moment won't change

dramatically until sometime next week. This morning in southern

counties we have clear skies at a cold start. Expect to be scraping

your car. Also some shallow mist and fog, which will lift clear the lack

quickly -- lift quickly. Heading up into northern England and Scotland

and we've got more cloud. The weak weather front will produce rain and

drizzle, but very patchy. We have showery outbreaks across the

north-west Scotland. Northern island off to a cloudy start, but not

especially cold. Moving back across Wales with the top end of the

weather front with more cloud. In the south, war breaks. The weather

front extends from Norfolk, across the Midlands, into Wales. But in

Lincolnshire and southern parts of northern England, where we are prone

to see some spits and spots through the day. Today there's a better

chance of more brighter breaks. We could see some in the shelter at the

Welsh hills. The same across Northern Ireland, north-east England

and Ireland, sunshine across north-east Scotland. Temperatures

coming down little bit compared to what they have been in the north,

where we've been so used to double figures. The same for Northern

Ireland. Into this evening and overnight, more of the same. Where

we have clear skies again we will have widespread frost, maybe patchy

mist and fog. Temperatures tumbling early. Under the cloud we have

temperatures values are little bit higher. North-east Scotland is

sticking out because here we have clear skies. That means first thing

tomorrow where we have the clear skies, with any mist and fog, it

will brighten up and we have sunshine. Not a bad day tomorrow.

Dry for most of us, and with the thick cloud we could have a couple

of spots of rain. But at this stage in mid-January it is pretty healthy.

Temperatures down a touch, but still we are looking at between 6-8

Celsius. You would still need to wrap up warm, but you would expect

that in January! We certainly would. Thank you.

With just one day left until Donald Trump is sworn in, reparations are

in full swing. But can he deliver their jobs and trade that he

promised? This week we have been taking a road trip through the heart

of America on Route 45. Today, Breakfast's Jon Kay

is in Tupelo, Mississippi, to hear their hopes

for the next four years. One last practice before heading to

Washington. Tonight, the Tupelo high school band will be travelling 900

mild from Mississippi to the capital. The play at President

Trump's inauguration. Your face is going to ache. You think so? What

are you most excited about? Dustin Martin parade and the Washington for

the first time. What do you think of your new president? Donald Trump got

60% of the votes in this state. The students might be playing for him,

but that doesn't mean they are all fans of the new man in the White

House. If you have been able to vote, put your hands up if you would

have voted for Donald Trump. Not exactly overwhelming. Three. I think

some of his ideas are pretty great and I think you can make America

great again, we just have to believe in him and see what happens. You

didn't put your hand up. Why not? I don't like him. You are about to go

and play for him. I know, but I am forced to. I like Washington, what I

don't like him. You are going for the trip? Yeah, basically. Lots of

celebrities said no to performing at the inauguration. Why did you say

yes? Are not a fan of Trump but I am going for the experience and for my

band. I'm not going for him, I am going for me. Music matters in this

small southern town. In fact, it put Tupelo on the map. Just off Route 45

is the tiny house where Elvis Presley was born. But we're not here

to talk about the King, we are here to talk about the new president.

Because as well as producing rock 'n' roll stars, a crew to produce as

cars. Look at this. 1957 Chevrolet. I wish we had hired one of these for

a retreat. Donald Trump has promised a return to the heyday of American

manufacturing. He says he will create jobs and improve trade deals.

This local steel company supplies the car industry. They believe the

new president will cut red tape, cut taxes and boost growth. I feel very

optimistic. The boss here hopes Donald Trump will fill his

government with tough business people. And if they don't do it he

will fire them! But it isn't the apprentice. Politics is more

complicated and more nuanced. Will he be able to cope with the

political diplomatic challenges? That remains to be seen. I think he

is introducing something into the political landscape that has never

been done before. Politics all shook up. Elvis stood right here on the

cross and asked for his first guitar. This hardware store is where

the young Elvis Presley's music career began. As well as guitars

they sell tools to local businesses and they are waiting to see what

Trump really means for jobs and manufacturing. We know what he will

do. This is a man who has not got a political record. He has gone on

record sometimes supporting things, but not as a sitting officeholder.

Does it worry you that he hasn't given much detail about what he will

do? He has made big promises but not explained Hywel. It does worry us

and I think it worries everybody, what the future holds. Anything you

take to the parade is subject to being searched. The students are to

go. Tomorrow they will perform outside the White House. And this

nation will have to march to a very different beat.

And tomorrow, on the final part of his journey down Route 45,

Jon Kay will report from Washington County in Alabama,

where he'll be speaking to people who feel left out of politics.

Two of the largest investment banks in the City of London have confirmed

some staff will move abroad when the UK leaves the EU.

But how are smaller British businesses planning for the changes

Ben is at a rug factory for us this morning.

Good morning. Welcome to Manchester. And this rug retailer. We've heard

from big is less about what leaving the single market and the customs

union could mean for them, but what about places like this? They import

a lot of their rugs from Europe but also places like India. So leaving

the single market could make it more expensive for them to import things

here. This sort of stuff is also more expensive. It costs more to

import because of the fall in the value of the pound. We will talk

this morning about what impact that could mean for small businesses,

what they will do to respond and how they can react to what they've heard

from Theresa May this week. So we will talk more about that in a

little while. Before that, it's get the news, travel and weather

Now, though, it's back to Charlie and Steph.

Hundreds of British holidaymakers have landed back in the UK

from The Gambia amid concerns of a worsening political crisis.

The Foreign Office is continuing to advise people to avoid

Over 25,000 citizens have fled to neighbouring Senegal

as the threat of a military invasion looms.

This crisis centres on one man refusing to buckle to pressure

from a regional alliance now surrounding his tiny nation.

Yahya Jammeh initially conceded defeat in last month's election

after 22 years in power but he changed his mind,

claiming the vote had been fraudulent.

The man who defeated him, Adama Barrow, fled to Senegal

but remains confident he will sworn in later today.

Troops from Senegal and Ghana are now gathered along the border

and Nigeria has sent fighter jets and a warship to the area.

They have asked for UN permission to intervene,

after their deadline for the President to step down expired.

While hope exists for a peaceful solution, thousands of tourists

have an anxious wait to leave the country.

In his last press conference as head of state, Mr Obama said he looked

forward to spending more time with his wife

If you're parents don't read about you, you have problems. But my

daughters and I are something. They just... They surprised and in Chant

and impress me more and more every single day as they grow up. I was

trying to work out whether was a lap around the White House or a lap as

in making sure that they have everything. Probably a bit of both.

Big day tomorrow. There is a change in sport as well. A wind of change

in a way. I am trying to make a Segway. -- trying to make a link.

Britain's Johanna Konta eased through to the third

Konta - who's the ninth seed - beat 19-year-old Naomi Osaka

She'll play former world number one Caroline Wozniacki on Saturday.

Rarely do we get an easy round so it is a given but I am looking forward

to the challenge and to trying and to being out on court competing and

ultimately I am trying to make my stay here in Melbourne as long as

possible. Not such good news for

Heather Watson though. She had five match points

but eventually lost in three sets to the American qualifier

Jennifer Brady. He lost in straight sets

to Spain's Pablo Carreno Busta. The positive is that it is another

experience. But, you know, I have to be realistic at the same time and

I'm disappointed with myself so, yeah. I aim to do better all the

time. Number two seed Novak Djokovic

Liverpool secured their place in the fourth round of the FA Cup,

but just one goal settled it in their replay at Plymouth Argyle.

After a goalless draw at Anfield, 11 days ago captain for the night

Lucas Leiva scored his first goal in seven years to break the deadlock

The visitors missed a penalty but it was the League Two side

who came closest to equalising when Jake Jervis hit the post.

Liverpool face Wolves in the next round.

Two, three, four nil that would have been OK. So one, I'm fine. I said

before the game that we do not want extra time, we want to go into the

next round. We want to leave here as early as possible, despite it being

quite nicely, we want to leave as early as possible. We have done

exceptionally well over Liverpool in the last two games and we had a

number of good opportunities in the first half and even in the second

half we hit the post as well. I think the players are proud of their

performance as two other supporters. Premier League Southampton looked

to be heading for extra time against Championship side

Norwich at St Mary's. It was goalless after 90 minutes

but Shane Long got the final touch after a goalmouth

scramble in injury time. Saints will play Arsenal at home

in the fourth round. Newcastle are also through to

the fourth round after beating fellow Championship side Birmingham

3-1 at St James' Park They face League One Oxford

next in the FA Cup. Rachael Heyhoe Flint,

the former England women's cricket Baroness Heyhoe Flint,

who was also vice-president of Wolverhampton Wanderers,

captained England between She also played in the first ever

women's match at Lord's, She has driven a great change and

been an amazing inspiration in our sport and probably beyond our sport,

actually. I think she will go down as, armour, someone who has

progressed and driven change for women in sport more broadly than

just cricket. Clare Connor speaking yesterday about Rachel Heyhoe Flint.

And before I go, let's bring you up-to-date with a round the world

yacht race due to finish today. Alex Thomson, a British sailor, is in

second place. He is up against a man who is significantly ahead of him.

Who knows what may happen over the coming hours. It depends what you

are looking at. I would say they are due to finish this afternoon and

when they left, when they originally left in November, 300,000 people

lined up to watch them leave. They are expecting a similar number to

bring them home this afternoon. In terms of sailing he has brought down

the leader dramatically. Insanely. Even if it comes second, when he

comes second, he will break the record for the race. But it still

looks very much like it will be second. It is an extraordinary

achievement just to do this. He has been in communication with the navy

urbanite. He said he was exhausted. Unsurprisingly. Thank you. We will

see you later. The cost of imported vegetables such as zucchini lettuce

and broccoli could be about to rise in price because of bad weather in

Europe. Supermarkets have also told the BBC that concerns over supply of

fresh food. Dan Johnson is a new Covent Garden market for us. What is

the story come down? Good morning. There is definitely a shortage on

certain kinds of vegetable. I have got one of the only crates of

courgettes in this place. One year ago this would have cost about six

or ?7 for the plate. Today this is going for up to ?24 because there

has been such a shortage, because of the weather conditions in Spain and

Italy and the fact that there has been heavy rain before Christmas and

then flooding, a cold snap, even snow on the ground. That stops to

produce getting overheated Britain and drives up the price and means

that some people who would normally be customers here at the whole sale

market during the evening have been going to supermarkets and clearing

the shelves they are. That is what some of the traders you think has

been happening. That has contributed to the shortage in the fact that

people cannot get a hold of things like courgettes and broccoli. This

place is winding down now. It is active through the night, especially

in the early hours, but during the evening I have been speaking to

traders about the problems they face. We normally order at a lorry

with ten or 12 pallets on. They are sending for all five pallets. Some

of the green stuff has really been affected. Things that we want to

bring in our too expensive. -- are too expensive. I have been in this

trade for 40 years and it has never been as bad as these where

everything is so expensive. Many of our customers have been going to

supermarkets and clearing them out and other supermarkets have nothing.

Potatoes and carrots are always good but foreign produce is like gold. It

is as easy to buy a pallet of gold bars as it is to buy anything else.

There are some traders here who cannot get courgettes at all. Toby

is one of them. We have none at all. It has been very difficult this

winter. The price goes up by pounds every day. So you have disappointed

customers? Very. We promised supply and we cannot. Any alternatives or

other places you could get the vegetable from? We we attempt to

purchase direct from the continent that there is nothing out there. We

think the conditions will carry on because it is not just the crop that

is damaged now. To replace it, they cannot get on the ground because it

is wet. They can plant new plants to get supply going forward. So you are

looking for the English season to start in the spring. You will need

an alternative vegetable instead. Get hold of some parsnip potato.

Thank you very much. Broccoli as well is affected. Let's

have a look at the weather forecast. How is it looking here? It is fairly

quiet. Good morning. The weather you had yesterday will be very similar

to the weather we have today and tomorrow. We don't see a break down

in the weather until Tuesday or Wednesday next week when it becomes

more unsettled from the west. Today again a fairly cloudy start for

many. There is some mist around and patches of fork. But some of us

starting on a frosty note and a sunny one. These are the kind of

temperatures, if you are stepping out now. -6 in parts. Cardiff and

Manchester are little bit higher. Interestingly at the moment in

Aberdeenshire it is minus two. But if you go to the Highlands it is

plus ten. So a huge array of temperatures going on. Why we've got

this is we have high pressure dominating the forecast. And we have

called their being pulled in by weak fronts. As we go through this

morning in southern counties of England, and the south-west and

south-east that's a bit of cloud and fair but also a lot clear skies.

Shallow mist and fog will lift readily and also some frost. Through

the Midlands and in the Norfolk, into northern England, a lot of

cloud, and spits and spots of rain. Clear skies across the north-east

means a cold start. Showers in the north-west, but generally cloudy in

Scotland and the same for Northern Ireland. You also have a cloudy

start, but relatively mild. Then as we move back across Wales the

weather front affecting the north at the moment, producing some of that

cloud. Through the day you can see where we are looking at the

sunshine, but today we have a better chance of seeing some rakes in the

cloud, particularly through the sheltered hills. We should see some

to the shelter of the hills in Northern Ireland, north-east England

and we will hang on to the showers across Scotland. Temperature wise,

coming down in Northern Ireland and parts of Scotland where we have had

double figures, still only ten in Stornoway. Temperatures roughly

between five and eight Celsius. So another day of wrapping up warmly,

but we would expect that at this time in January. Into the evening

and overnight we have more clear skies, so looking at frost again and

mist and fog. Breaks in the north of Scotland, so-called here. But where

we have the cloud temperatures are hanging on and you can see the

difference. Temperatures will fall away quickly in evening. Tomorrow we

start off, any shallow mist and fog lifting, then some sunshine. That

extends through Wales. Northern parts of Scotland also seen that.

We've had a lot of sunshine in the north-east. Parts of the north-west

will also have sunshine, but we still have this cloud and some of

that will produce the shower. By tomorrow the temperatures coming

down. We've lost the double figures and we have between 6-8 Celsius.

Thanks for a much. See you later. Two big banks have said

they are moving jobs out of London, just two days after the Prime

Minister announced her plans But how are similar,

smaller British businesses planning for the changes

that are starting to emerge? Ben is with some business owners

in Greater Manchester this morning. Good morning. Welcome to Manchester.

We are here because we are looking at the impact of what we heard from

Theresa May, as far as the customs union and single market is

concerned. What difference it would make for small businesses. We have

heard from big firms, but what about small businesses, many have small

resources. I've got the bosses of three firms with me for we've got

Daniel, the boss at the rug firm that we are right, Victoria runs a

PR firm and Roger runs a cyber security business. Good morning.

Starting with you, Daniel, talk us through the impact this could have

as far as the customs union and the single market is concerned, because

you import a lot of the rugs we see from Europe? We do. From Europe and

India. At the moment the impact is yet to be seen, how that will affect

us. I feel we are entering a period of uncertainty. We will thrive to

face up to the challenge and take the business with whatever it

brings. It is funny, Victoria. We tend to look at big firms. They have

the resources to move staff around and make these decisions. Smaller

firms don't have those resources by the smaller firms have that agility.

The biggest challenge we've had recently is the recession and five

years ago it was so unpredictable in this country. It was probably this

time five years ago I started thinking about going somewhere else,

got on a plane in the middle of the jury to Dubai and that decision

process was quick with my team. -- little of July. And we used social

media to get new business in Dubai and we had money in the bank by the

end of June. So I think you can as a business take opportunities and

that's what we've got to do now, think about digital, you can go

across the world using social media, there are lots of opportunities

still. And, Roger, manufacturing firms and retailers, we looked at

them, but what about services? What will it mean? We have people around

the globe, in the US, Europe and the UK, so for us most of our delivery

is done at source, so we are already in the markets we are operating in.

So we don't feel too concerned about restrictions in terms of importing

and exporting. But one area where were initially concerned about is in

the UK we employ a significant amount of UK nationals. That's not

about lowering wages, it is keeping our level of technical competence-

is the we were reassured by the announcement that skilled workers

aren't going to be affected. So we aren't too concerned with the way we

trade. Daniel, briefly, prices, one of the immediate impacts will be the

fall in the pound which will make things more expensive to import.

You've been able to hold off raising prices? We've worked hard,

negotiating with suppliers to ensure the impact will be minimised to our

customers, it is important for us. But the question is how will can we

continue to do that and which way will the currencies change in the

future? Good to talk to you all. Thanks for now. We will talk later.

Really the impact is the uncertainty and trying to come up with a plan to

deal with things. We don't really know yet what happened. We've had a

bit more clarity from the reason they as far as the customs union and

single market is concerned, but for small businesses it will be about

working out what happens next and how they can prepare for that. More

from me after 7pm. You have a tray of pastries as well,

that's good to see! On touched!

Yet. The Lancaster bomber became one

of the most famous and effective aircraft to take part

in World War Two. It played a crucial role in securing

victory for the Allies, but only two of them

are still able to fly. One family is hoping that

will change, thanks to a remarkable 30 year restoration project,

which they hope will see another Hallo, skipper. Wartime recordings

of a Lancaster aircrew. Britain's most famous 4-MAR. Although this one

has not flown for 40 years. -- most famous bomber. The site and the

sound... There isn't another sound like it. Just over 7000, 300

Lancaster bombers were built. Almost half were lost in combat during

World War Two. But for Harold and his family, the desire to fully

restore on is personal. His brother, Christopher, a member of bomber

command died in a mission over Germany in 1944. Harold and his

other brother, Fred, wanted to restore an aircraft to honour those

who never came back. In 1983 their search finally ended. We knew that

it was either now or never, because we would never get another chance to

buy a Lancaster. Fred died four years ago before the family dream of

seeing this Lancaster back in the sky could be fulfilled. Fred's

grandson Andrew is determined to make it happen. Lancaster parts are

very hard to come by, so you snap up parts when they become available.

There are few companies that buy up old stock after the war. Then people

just bought random parts and have had it in their garage for 30- 40

years. Such a tight squeeze! It is very tight inside. Added to by the

fact that there's a lot of equipment and the main spies come through.

This is the main back on the aircraft? Yes, these spas, that the

backbone, where the main strength is. It is important we checked to

make sure they are good. They've got an X-ray later this month. This is

the cop it. It will be such a moment if you do get this back in the air.

-- cockpit. We will be flying minimum crew, if we managed to get

her airworthy. It will be quite a thing to be onboard. Members of RAF

bomber command -based dreadful odds when embarking on a mission. 44% of

aircrew lost their lives during World War Two and on the Lancaster

there was one place which was by far the most dangerous place to be.

Here, where the rear gunner, or tail and surely as he was known, did his

best. -- tail end trolley. It was the place shot at first in any

action and life expectancy was about 40 hours. Only two other Lancaster

is as still airworthy. They are continuing to try to make this on

the third. It will be extremely emotional, it will be mission

accomplished. Isn't it fascinating? The confines

they were working in and the risks they were facing. We will follow

that project through and see what happens.

Fascinating to see what happens inside.

Theresa May will outline her Brexit strategy to business and political

leaders at the World Economic Forum in the Swiss resort of Davos today.

The Prime Minister will seek to convince her audience,

many of whom opposed Britain leaving the EU,

that it is possible to make a political and economic

Our business correspondent, Tanya Beckett is in Davos

We know it is cold there and the Prime Minister will probably have a

tough audience today. Yes. I think she will want to communicate to the

business leaders who because after all this is a forum for pitching

business, they need to know that Britain is open for business. It may

leave all of the unions but it wants to do deals. That is the top of her

message. Of course, as you rightly say, other participants, politicians

here may well see her as part of a disintegration of Europe because the

problem is that it lies not just within the United Kingdom but was in

France, Germany and for that matter Italy. So they are going to be

concerned about any adding of momentum to the dissent within the

European Union about what it stands for. And there is a wider context,

of course. We know the Donald Trump is about to be inaugurated as

president and he has spoken about ripping up trade agreements. If you

look at that background, the message of Theresa May is tempered. All she

is saying is that she wants to leave the European Union because that is

what people voted for. There are those who are saying that there are

two sides to this negotiation and they have laid out where it wants to

start from. You will need to deal with us, however, about what you can

expect from the European Union going forward. One of those people was the

Finance minister for friends but he is now European commissioner for

economic and financial affairs for the EU. It must be clear that we

cannot have all of the advantages of being a member of a club when you

are out of the club. I think our British friends, who invented clubs,

they can understand that. If you wire it, you are in. If you are out

you are out. It is not free access, it is not free lunch. So it is going

to be a difficult road ahead and the head of the IMF has outlined this,

what we are talking about is really setting up a trade deal with the

European Union between two parties. I was speaking to the trade Minister

for International trade for Canada yesterday and he was saying, look,

we have done this with the EU and it can be done. The UK is not the back

of the queue by any means, in fact it is top of the list. So there is a

willingness now that Britain has stated its position, or other

countries to come forward and say let us cut a deal. It may not be

quick. Thank you very much. Scientists say they're working

speaking to a professor Final preparations are under way in

Washington for the inauguration of the Donald Trump.

Yesterday, Mr Trump tweeted a photo of himself writing his inaugural

address, saying he was "looking forward to Friday."

Meanwhile, departing president Barack Obama gave his last press

conference as head of state, and offered his successor advice

I can tell you that... And this is something I have told him, that this

is a job of such magnitude that you can not do it by yourself. You are

enormously reliant on a team. The former US president,

George Bush senior, has been moved to intensive care in the hospital

in Texas where he has been receiving treatment for pneumonia

since Saturday. Mr Bush, who is 92, is said to be

stable after undergoing a procedure His wife, Barbara, who is 91,

has been admitted to the same hospital in Dallas as a precaution,

suffering from fatigue and a cough. The Government's being urged to make

sure all victims of crime in England and Wales can make statements

about how it's affected them. The Ministry of Justice says it

will announce plans "in due course" The Victims Commissioner says only

a small number of people are currently being

given the opportunity. We need now to have victims rights

in an establishment that gives them the quality, respect and actually

the protection that they should quite rightly have because they

have lost a loved one. This review shows that

enough is enough and I am looking for government to ensure

that the victims have the rights they truly deserve

to give them respect and dignity and also the protection

that they should have to ensure that they feel that their voice

is being listened to. The world's primates face

an "extinction crisis" with 60% of species now threatened

with extinction, according to research published

in the journal 'Science Advances'. An international study,

led by British scientists, has found if urgent action isn't

taken, our closest biological But while the human population

continues to grow, most of our fellow primates are now

sliding towards extinction. This international team

of scientists trawled through the data on more

than 500 primate species, revealing a looming

extinction crisis. They estimate that 60% of primate

species are now threatened with extinction, and 75% have

populations that are in decline. These guys are ring-tailed lemurs,

and they are just one of the primate species that's been assessed

in this new global study. As nice as it is to see them

thriving here in captivity, their natural habitat

is disappearing fast. And it's human activity

that's driving that. Forest habitat that these animals

rely on is being destroyed, primarily for agriculture

and logging. These forests provides essential

services for people. They help in mitigating

climate change by being They help in providing

clear water for people, pollinations so people

can grow their crops. Reversing these declines means

looking closely at where we source products like timber,

palm oil and meat, making sure destruction of tropical

up with a vaccine so they are available when an outbreak begins.

We're joined now by professor of global infectious diseases. Thank

you for your time. Some of these will be news to people today as you

talk about them. Can you take is through the three we are talking

about? Mers first. These are infections that have come to light

in the last few years of following on from a whole series of historical

discoveries. Mers is a corona virus, a virus, across the globe but

particular strains of the corona can cause severe pneumonia. The first

corona virus became to notoriety was a few years ago with size, a corona

virus in Southeast Asia and China. Mers has emerged in the Middle East

and it is another corona virus that can cause pneumonia. These viruses

can spread person to person. The worry is that an outbreak of Mers

could spread globally across the planet in the same way as pandemic

influenza did causing major mortality and disturbance to human

populations. Where have they come from? Many of these viruses come

from contact with animals. They do not have a natural reservoir in

humans but was in with humans. But because of changes we have made and

because we are moving into different parts of the ecosystem, we come in

contact with these viruses which then spread into the human

population we see these epidemics. Nipah, not one I have heard of

before. That came to notoriety in Malaysia in the 1990s. It was

associated with pig farming, clearing of the jungle to do pig

farming and lead to contact with fruit bats. Those fruit bats bred

the virus to the pigs to the humans. Apart from Malaysia we now get

regular how breaks in places like India and Bangladesh. Again, not

highly infectious but a virus that could mutate and become more

efficient at spreading between humans and then we have a situation

of a global pandemic. Can you explain why these three have been

chosen? Does not mean that they definitely will cause an epidemic,

it is the fact that you want to look into it to stop something. Why these

three? This announcement of this money is an attempt to get ahead of

it, to get ahead of the curve so we are not in the same position that we

were weeds Ebola where we did not have an effective vaccine. One was

developed quickly but before it was brought to use in humans, thousands

of people had died. The process is to say OK, what infections out there

are likely to be the next potential big epidemic? Not saying they will

be, but the potential. There has been an exercise done to look at a

whole series of infections. These three in particular are the starting

point of this initiative. They are the ones that have come out where we

feel they are close to developing a vaccine and with the right injection

of funds and the right injection of science we should be able to move

these forward to having a vaccine. This is the starting point. There

will be more vaccine for other diseases. Inevitably, when we sit

here in use words like global epidemics and people think about the

scare we have had before. People worry, don't they come something

that might happen. What are the real risks for people listening to you

explaining what these things? Well... If I come back to a bowler,

a bowler is probably a good example. Ebola had been, we had known about

it the last 50 years. It was a disease that occurred in Ramon parts

of Africa in underprivileged populations which tended to come and

go very quickly and a few hundred people would be killed but everybody

ignored that and we did not think it was important. And then the wake-up

call was 2015 with the Ebola crisis in West Africa. The possibility of

spreading through air travel around the globe. It is difficult to see

which one will be a problem. At a high window from the experience with

Ebola that the problem is there and it could come to us. If we have a

vaccine, we have an efficient tool to control them. We can be prepared

for these epidemics and that is where the thinking is. Why not be

prepared when we have a thread like this? Thank you for your time.

You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.

The main stories this morning: British tourists have returned

from The Gambia, as concerns grow about the political situation there.

The Foreign Office is urging people to avoid non-essential travel

Theresa May is to outline her Brexit plans to business leaders

at the World Economic Forum in the Swiss resort of Davos.

Here's Carol with a look at this morning's weather.

I am pleased to say it's a bit calmer and that the beautiful

picture behind you. Thanks. Good morning. This is Glen

Cove. We have high pressure a cross as and what you've had your hanging

onto, with a couple of exceptions. It won't change until the early part

of next week when it becomes more unsettled from the west. Cloudy this

morning, some of us being missed, and we have a fairly weak weather

front in Norfolk, the Midlands, into Wales. That is producing spits and

spots of light rain and drizzle. As we come into south England from the

south-west, through the Isle of Wight, towards Kent, most of east

Anglia as well and the south Midlands, this is where it's a cold

start. There is frost around. North of that you come across the weather

front producing spots of drizzle. But a lot of cloud pushing into

Scotland. Some eastern areas missing it altogether and here it's a cold

start, with some shower was moving into the north-west. For Northern

Ireland this morning cloudy again. It is mild for the time of year.

Across most of Wales it is cloudy. Through the course of the day we

hang on to the sunshine across southern areas. More cloud coming in

from the North Sea, so it would be gentler. Breaks developing in west

Wales and in the shelter of the hills. The same in Northern Ireland.

The shelter of the hills, the shelter of the Pennines and

Grampians, we are likely to see sunshine. Temperatures coming down

from the north. Today you will notice a bit of a difference and

certainly over the next few days as well. Into this evening and

overnight under clear skies again it will be called, temperatures

dropping quickly. -- will be cold. Again shallow mist and fog patches.

The same for north-east Scotland, where we hang on to clearer skies.

For the rest of the UK it won't be frosty. So we start off tomorrow

with again the sunshine where we lose the fog. But we have more of

that spread northwards into Wales. More of the Midlands see sunshine

tomorrow as well. Northern Ireland should see sunshine and north-west

Scotland. For the rest of Scotland and quite a large chunk of England

we hang on to the cloud. Again thick enough for some rain and drizzle.

Temperatures coming down, a city where they should be. As we head

into the weekend more of the same. A lot of cloud around and it isn't

until we get to the middle of next week, Tuesday and Wednesday, that we

start to see a breakdown in the weather from the west.

He has made big promises but not explained how.

It does worry us and I think it worries everybody,

Anything you take to the parade is subject to being searched.

Tomorrow they will perform outside the White House.

And this nation will have to march to a very different beat.

Looking forward to tomorrow, the final part of Jon's journey.

He will report from Washington County in Alabama,

where he'll be speaking to people who feel left out of politics.

If you're missing Planet Earth Two, there's a brand new series

an animatronic. He is placed in the wild with real orangutans and he

mimics them. They get this fantastic footage because inside his eye, one

of them has a camera so he can see and record what's happening. It

gives a unique insight into wildlife.

You can see the movements. And the way it is mimicking the actions of

the orangutan with its mouth. Clever.

We will here for -- hear more from the producers later.

How are smaller British businesses planning for the changes that

Ben is out in Manchester for us this morning.

Good morning. Good morning. Welcome to Manchester. We are here because

we are talking about the impact on small firms because it is often the

case that big is this make their voice heard when it comes to things

like changes in policy and of course we heard a lot from Theresa May this

week about leaving the customs union, leaving the single market,

what would that mean for businesses, began small. The guys here import of

rugs from Europe and also from races like India. And of course the fall

in the value of the pound has made them more expensive, so they are

trying not to pass that on to customers. At the same time they are

concerned about what leaving the single market could mean. Could it

mean more tariffs and fees? We've also been speaking to businesses

that say this could be a great opportunity and could encourage more

businesses to look outside of Europe for new trade opportunities. So we

will hear from both sides of that debate this morning. Before we do

that, let's get the news, travel and weather

Konta - who's the ninth seed - beat 19-year-old Naomi Osaka

She'll play former world number one Caroline Wozniacki on Saturday.

Rarely do we get an easy round so it is a given but I am

looking forward to the challenge and to trying and to being out

on court competing and ultimately I am trying to make my stay

here in Melbourne as long as possible.

Not such good news for Heather Watson though.

She had five match points but eventually lost in three sets

to the American qualifier Jennifer Brady.

He lost in straight sets to Spain's Pablo Carreno Busta.

The positive is that it is another experience.

But, you know, I have to be realistic at the same time and I'm

Now I mentioned that Novak Djokovic is on court at the moment and

engaged in quite a battle with the unseeded Denis Istomin. He lost the

first set, won the next two. The fourth set has gone to a tie-break

and we are still in a tie-break. Denis Istomin leads that. Djokovic

is grumpy, according to commentators.

Liverpool secured their place in the fourth round of the FA Cup,

but just one goal settled it in their replay at Plymouth Argyle.

After a goalless draw at Anfield 11 days ago,

Lucas Leiva scored his first goal in seven years to break the deadlock

The visitors missed a penalty but it was the League Two side

who came closest to equalising when Jake Jervis hit the post.

Liverpool face Wolves in the next round.

Two, three, four nil that would have been OK.

I said before the game that we do not want extra time,

We want to leave here as early as possible,

despite it being quite nice here, we want to leave

Premier League Southampton looked to be heading for extra time

against Championship side Norwich at St Mary's.

It was goalless after 90 minutes but Shane Long got the final touch

after a goalmouth scramble in injury time.

Saints will play Arsenal at home in the fourth round.

Newcastle are also through to the fourth round after beating

fellow Championship side Birmingham 3-1 at St James' Park.

Baroness Heyhoe Flint has passed away. Many have paid tribute to her.

She has driven great change and been an amazing inspiration in our sport

and probably beyond our sport, actually. I think she will go down

as someone who has progressed and driven change for women in sport

more broadly than just cricket. The quarter-final line-up is complete at

the Snooker Masters. Mark Selby booked his place with a narrow win

over Mark Williams. He will face Barry Hawkins who crashed as Shaun

Murphy. Two sets all now between Novak Djokovic and Denis Istomin.

sailor in second place at the moment, this is his boat and he is

in second place, the man in the league is expected to finish between

one o'clock this afternoon and seven o'clock tonight. The clashes, I can

tell you, 146 nautical miles from the end. It was about 20 minutes ago

at least. These are incredible. they face. This is a close race.

This is the thing. It may end up being quite a few miles distance

but... 87 miles between them at the moment but they had been racing for

74 days which is a record in itself. If they finish on the 74th date they

beat the record by four days. It is really grim on-board. You do not get

more than 45 minutes sleep at a time and you do not get to wash at any

point since November. Have you seen the animals we have had in the

studio today? Not nice way to refer to our guests. We will meet a few

more of them a little bit later. We have a meerkat and a slot. -- sloth.

The animatronics, they feature, robots out in the wild and they have

cameras in them and they can tell us what is going on in the wildlife

world. We will discuss that a little later on. We have been hearing that

giants of business gathering in Switzerland to hear about plans for

Brexit. But how are smaller firms reacting? Ben is in a rug shop in

Manchester. Who needs Davos and Switzerland when you could be here

in greater Manchester. This is an online retailer of Rab. Many of them

are imported from places like Europe and that means that all of this

discussion we have had this week from the Prime Minister about

leaving the single market and leaving the customs union, a concern

about whether it will add more price. The cost of these could go up

because we need to pay more for tariffs. At the same time it is also

worth bearing in mind that this could be great for new

opportunities. To look beyond the borders of Europe to find new

business. We have been hearing from big business but it's big to small

business. I have three bosses with me. Good morning. Roger, there is a

tendency to think of our manufacturing and big business but a

small service organisation like yours, you face a different

challenge. That is correct. We have employees around the world so we are

not too worried about access to single market because we are

delivering at the point of delivery in the country we operate in. But an

area that does concern us is accessed to EU resources in the UK.

We employ a lot of EU employees. At the moment we are not too concerned

because recent announcements have pointed out that we will have

skilled access to resources. What reassurances would you like to hear?

Was the promises could you hear from the Prime Minister to assure you

that things are actually OK and you will get access to staff? Like I

said we need to ensure that the people who are employed at the

moment in the UK can stay here and we can continue with that model of

delivery. Victoria, you run a PR firm. What challenges do you face?

It is not necessarily about tariff with an as and charges and fees but

you are optimistic that this could lead to new opportunities as far as

new markets? The biggest challenge we have had in the last few years

has been the recession and anybody who is still here, we have had to

change our business model is quickly. We got into digital tour,

we got into social media. We have been working with female leaders in

the UAE, we have developed that business there. We are selling that

back in the UK, working with business leaders here, petitioning

them as thought leaders. One thing that has come is that by looking

form new opportunities, it is your mindset. By going to look for them

it has an added value to the business. Things do not stay the

same any more. Daniel, you are the boss here. It is that idea, isn't

it, about new opportunities but is a small firm you do not have the

resources that big businesses do to move staff overseas. You are nimble

and you can move quickly and make decisions quickly? That is correct.

As a rug sale we are about offering maximum value for money for our

customers. The major concern for us is the exchange rate and also the

movement of goods throughout the European markets. At a moment that

position is not fully clear, how that will affect us and our

customers. Thank you very much for your time and we will talk later.

That is the theme at the moment, getting clarity about what happens

next. It is difficult for business to plan and that is what they want

to do when there is no clarity on what the shape of our relationship

as as traders concerned, will be. We will talk more about that after

eight. Come join us up then and we will get to grips with more of these

issues. How is the weather looking?

Fairly stagnant at the moment. We've got high pressure that's blocking

everything, so what we've had is almost what we will get again today.

For the next few days in fact. Cloudy for most of the UK. Some mist

and patchy fog, but some of us have a cold and sunny start. If you are

just stepping out it is still -6 in places. Elsewhere:

In the Highlands, ten. What's happening is we've got that high

pressure across as and there's not much movement in the weather, but

we've also got a weather front across Wales, the Midlands, parts of

Norfolk and Lincolnshire and that's producing thicker cloud and spots of

patchy rain and drizzle. Further south it is frosty. We've also got

some mist and fog that will lift and we've got a lot of loose guide

today. As we move further north you can see how the emphasis is on quite

a bit of cloud. In the afternoon we could see more cloud of the North

Sea. In southern counties, a lot of sunshine. Sunshine in the Channel

Islands to. In the telly the maximum will only be five. -- St Helier.

Across Wales, more cloud. But in the west Wales we are already seeing

some breaks and we should hang on to those. Cloudy start for Northern

Ireland. A better chance today in the shelter of the hills will seem

brighter breaks. Some showers in the north-west Scotland. The north-east

hanging onto the sunshine and in northern England a lot of cloud. To

the east of the Pennines we could see breaks in the cloud. Overnight

we will see once again under the clear skies and widespread frost and

you can see how the cloud this further north. Call the further

north than it has been, but a lot of cloud around and as we slip into

north-east Scotland again it will be cold. A nippy start for some of us.

Sunshine in north-east Scotland and southern England, Wales, into the

Midlands. Again this cloud E Ink eroded, so -- this cloud is being

eroded. More breaks in north-west Scotland. We still have this lump of

cloud and it could produce the odd spot of rain. Temperatures coming

down in the north, compared to the double figures we've been getting

used to in the south. Once again as we head into the weekend it is more

of the same. If anything we are turning a little bit colder. Thank

you. The Lancaster bomber became one

of the most famous and effective aircraft to take part

in World War Two. Only two of them are

still able to fly. One family is hoping that

will change, thanks to a remarkable 30 year restoration project,

which they hope will see another Wartime recordings of

a Lancaster aircrew. Although this one hasn't

flown for 40 years. Just over 7,300

Lancasters were built. Almost half were lost in combat

during World War Two. But for Harold and his family,

the desire to fully It brings many memories back, I

think. His brother, Christopher,

a member of Bomber Command, died in a mission

over Germany in 1944. Harold and his other brother, Fred,

wanted to restore an aircraft We knew that it was either now

or never, because we would never get Fred died four years ago before

the family dream of seeing this Lancaster back in the sky

could be fulfilled. Fred's grandson Andrew

is determined to make it happen. Lancaster parts are very hard

to come by, so you snap up There are a few companies that buy

up old stock after the war. But then people who've bought

random parts and have had them in their house,

or their garage, for 30-40 years. Such a tight squeeze!

It is very tight inside. Added to by the fact that

there's a lot of equipment So this is the main

backbone of the aircraft? Yeah, these spars,

that's the backbone, So it's important for our

restoration that we check the spars They've got an X-ray

later this month. It will be such a moment if you do

get this back in the air. We'll be flying with minimum crew,

if we managed to get It will be quite

a thing to be onboard. Members of RAF Bomber Command

faced dreadful odds 44% of aircrew lost

their lives during World War Two and on the Lancaster

there was one place which was by far Here, where the rear gunner,

or Tail End Charlie as he was known, It's the part that was shot at first

by enemy action and life expectancy Only two other Lancasters

are still airworthy. The funding and work continues

to try to make this one the third. It will be extremely emotional,

but it will be mission accomplished. What a fascinating project.

We will of course keep an eye on it and see how they get on with that

project. The cost of imported

vegetables such as courgettes, lettuce, and broccoli is going up

because of bad weather in Europe. Supermarkets have also told the BBC

there are concerns over Dan Johnson is at New Covent

Garden Market in London You are holding the core jets. This

product has gone up dramatically! -- courgettes.

Yes, this great one year ago might have cost about ?6, ?7. Today it is

selling for ?24. There are only about 20 in there, so they are

selling at more than ?1 each. It gives you an idea about the rise

because of the shortage of supply, due to the weather in Spain,

southern Italy, Europe. It had heavy rain, flooding, snow as well. That's

all reduced the harvest and made the crop so bad that suppliers can't get

enough of the vegetables that people want. That has forced the price up,

which means some people have to go without. We've seen shortages at the

wholesale market and the supermarket. It is quiet in, --

quietly now. I've spoken to people about some of the challenges they

have faced. We normally fill a lorry with 20 or

30 pallets on. They send in four or five. Some of the green stuff has

really been affected. And things that we want to bring in are too

expensive. I've been in this trade for 40 odd years and I've never

known it as bad as this, where everything is so dear. A lot of our

customers have been going to the supermarket and clearing them out

and now you will see that the supermarkets have nothing. Plenty of

English parsnips and potatoes which are always good, and carrots, but

foreign produce... Like gold. It is cheaper to get a palette of gold

bars than anything else! Barry is one of the traders who

works here. You have got courgettes but not enough? Not enough for the

customers, to keep them happy. There doesn't seem to be resistance on the

price. What are you paying? ?24? Yes, and they are paying. We've just

had another one through that his full up with snow. That's ruining

the crops? Yes. Slowing it down and eventually it will stop. Is there no

alternative? Only from the United States. Which we are starting to

think about doing. Because this problem will carry on? This will be

for the next month, definitely. What is that doing for your business?

Making it very difficult. Making it very, very difficult. What can

people do? We've got to start eating something else. Look for

alternatives and we will see how it goes! Carrots and potatoes, right?

Yes, you can't go wrong. There we are. English produce is the answer.

Winnie to stop eating that foreign food for time being. -- we need to

stop. Thank you very much and see you

later. Look at what we've got in the Studio XO this is a spy pig.

This is an animatronic version of it but it is very true to life. For a

new series, Spy in the Wild, we can go inside the pig because there is a

camera inside. So the pig is looking at as.

Giving you a death stare. The reason it has the jerky

movements is because that illustrates how they are in the wild

because they are quite nervous creatures. Can we see it move

forward? It moves... I will stop it before it

goes too far. This is exactly what they do, they

send them out into the wild, so he can get an idea of what life is like

out in the wild in Amazon on, where we would find a pig like this.

Very lifelike. Let's have a bit more movement! A

bit of bouncing? Time now to get the news,

travel and weather where you are. This is Breakfast with Charlie Stayt

and Steph McGovern. British holiday-makers begin

arriving back from The Gambia amid growing concerns of political

unrest in the west African state. It was very scary. The local people

were crying and worried about their children. They've got no work now.

Thousands more tourists are still waiting to be flown home

as a deadline for a political agreement passes.
