:00:17. > :00:33.Good morning. It's Saturday 25th February.

:00:34. > :00:39.Former Labour Foreign Secretary David Miliband says the party has

:00:40. > :00:41.never been further from power in the last 50 years,

:00:42. > :00:49.following the Conservative's success in the Copeland by-election.

:00:50. > :00:52.President Trump steps up his battle with the media,

:01:12. > :01:14.seekers and get a group of over '60s to have a go.

:01:15. > :01:18.I've been trying a new type of fitness class, based on the sport

:01:19. > :01:31.Good morning. The weather doesn't look particularly inspiring this

:01:32. > :01:36.weekend. A lot of cloud around. Some rain at times and it will be fairly

:01:37. > :01:37.blustery. All the details in about 15 minutes.

:01:38. > :01:49.The former Labour secretary says the party is further from power than it

:01:50. > :01:51.has been at any time in the last 50 years.

:01:52. > :01:54.In an interview with the Times newspaper, Mr Miliband said

:01:55. > :01:56.he was deeply concerned about Labour's future under

:01:57. > :01:58.Jeremy Corbyn, after the party lost the Copeland by-election

:01:59. > :02:04.Here's our political correspondent Chris Mason.

:02:05. > :02:10.Jeremy Corbyn went to Stoke yesterday to look and sound like a

:02:11. > :02:15.winner. His man had won the by-election there, activists were

:02:16. > :02:21.delighted. But Labour's vote slid in Stoke and the party has suffered

:02:22. > :02:25.eight, a Cumbrian humbling 140 miles north in Copeland, as the

:02:26. > :02:30.Conservatives triumphed. Enter from New York the Labour Party see as the

:02:31. > :02:35.best leader they never had, David Miliband. He now runs a charity, the

:02:36. > :02:39.International Rescue Committee, and this is not the first time he has

:02:40. > :02:43.been a public do Monga about his party under Jeremy Corbyn. -- doom

:02:44. > :02:46.long-off. He said Labour had lost support among IT called its core

:02:47. > :03:01.base: but those loyal to the leader say it

:03:02. > :03:06.is not all Jeremy Corbyn's fault and adds... I would like to talk about

:03:07. > :03:09.issues and what it is that makes a difference to people's lives. And

:03:10. > :03:13.that's having the sort of government that will address the concerns of

:03:14. > :03:17.people, that has solutions. This government does not and we need to

:03:18. > :03:22.make clear that we are the alternative and we have alternative

:03:23. > :03:29.solutions that will work. If you need to make it clear that... But

:03:30. > :03:33.plenty of other Labour MPs see what has happened as evidence of what

:03:34. > :03:37.they've always feared with Jeremy Corbyn, that painful drift towards

:03:38. > :03:40.irrelevance. Don't expect them to try to get rid of Mr Corbyn now

:03:41. > :03:42.because they know what happened when they tried that last time. He won

:03:43. > :03:46.again. Motorists should think long and hard

:03:47. > :03:49.before buying a diesel car. That's the message from

:03:50. > :03:51.the Transport Secretary He's urging drivers to consider

:03:52. > :03:56.a less-polluting vehicle instead. Four in ten cars on Britain's

:03:57. > :03:58.roads are diesel. Under Labour, they had been billed

:03:59. > :04:02.as the clean alternative to petrol Now they're said to be one

:04:03. > :04:06.of the reasons for increasing levels Let's get more on this

:04:07. > :04:09.with our correspondent Nick Quraishi,

:04:10. > :04:21.who's in central London. Good morning. The department of

:04:22. > :04:26.Transport sources are clear to point out Chris Grayling is insane to not

:04:27. > :04:31.buy diesel, he is simply saying to think about the alternatives. There

:04:32. > :04:35.are 12 million diesel cars on the road. The problem is nitrogen

:04:36. > :04:42.dioxide, which government figures estimate kill some 23.5 thousand

:04:43. > :04:47.people in the UK each year. -- 23,000 500. The government says is

:04:48. > :04:49.trying to help with the problem and is committed to reducing harmful

:04:50. > :04:56.emissions and improving air quality. It has put ?2 billion since 2011

:04:57. > :05:01.into trying to help and it is to come up with more schemes later this

:05:02. > :05:04.year. We understand one of them will be a scrappage scheme, so motorists

:05:05. > :05:09.are paid to get rid of their old diesels in favour of something less

:05:10. > :05:13.polluting. What Chris Grayling's comments to do is market dramatic

:05:14. > :05:17.shift from what Corbyn -- Gordon Brown did when he was Chancellor and

:05:18. > :05:24.reduced taxes on diesel cars. That said, the Mayor of London city

:05:25. > :05:27.can't, who is introducing a toxicity charge from October, when most

:05:28. > :05:29.polluting vehicles will have to pay ?10 a day to enter London. Thanks

:05:30. > :05:31.for the moment. Several news organisations,

:05:32. > :05:34.including the BBC, have been barred from entering a press

:05:35. > :05:40.briefing at the White House. President Trump's spokesman said

:05:41. > :05:42.the administration would "push back" against what it sees

:05:43. > :05:44.as false reporting. Here's our Washington

:05:45. > :05:52.correspondent, Laura Bicker. President Trump has stepped up his

:05:53. > :05:57.battle with the media. If you days ago I called the fake news the enemy

:05:58. > :06:05.of the people and they are. They are the enemy of the people. Because

:06:06. > :06:12.they have no sources, they just make them up when there are none. He is

:06:13. > :06:15.angry recent reports claiming his campaigners had contact with Russian

:06:16. > :06:19.intelligence officials. The New York Times used anonymous sources for

:06:20. > :06:23.their story. They should not be allowed, he said. They shouldn't be

:06:24. > :06:28.allowed to use sources unless they use somebody's name. Let their name

:06:29. > :06:33.we put out there. This latest Thai rage in a speech to a Conservative

:06:34. > :06:36.conference was 15 minutes long and just a few hours later things

:06:37. > :06:40.changed at the White House. -- latest tirade. It is the usual

:06:41. > :06:44.briefing by the White House secretary. All accredited media can

:06:45. > :06:49.attend. Instead number of selected media groups were invited into the

:06:50. > :06:51.office of Sean Spicer and others were barred, including the BBC. He

:06:52. > :07:07.was asked why. Why are they not in here? We

:07:08. > :07:15.expanded it and added some folks to comment coverage. It was my

:07:16. > :07:19.decision. The president says we will do something about it, in reference

:07:20. > :07:24.to the stories he says are false by the New York Times and CNN. What is

:07:25. > :07:29.he talking about? We are just not going to sit back and let false

:07:30. > :07:35.narratives, false stories, inaccurate facts get out there. The

:07:36. > :07:39.White House correspondent says it is protesting strongly and encouraging

:07:40. > :07:43.those who were allowed into shared material. The BBC is also seeking

:07:44. > :07:44.clarification as to why it was barred.

:07:45. > :07:48.Police have defended the decision to fire a taser at an unarmed blind

:07:49. > :07:54.man in Greater Manchester on Thursday.

:07:55. > :08:02.Officers at the train station this took the man's came for a gun. The

:08:03. > :08:13.43-year-old was unhurt and police have apologised. He was probably

:08:14. > :08:17.quite worried, in a state of panic. The bubbly they were trying to calm

:08:18. > :08:22.him down because obviously they realised, because he fired from a

:08:23. > :08:24.distance of about 10- 15 metres, I could make out it was a mistaken

:08:25. > :08:24.identity case. HSBC has promised to review the way

:08:25. > :08:27.it collects information from customers, after the BBC

:08:28. > :08:30.revealed that a number of clients had their accounts closed

:08:31. > :08:34.with little or no warning. Some customers say the bank

:08:35. > :08:37.is being over-zealous with the information

:08:38. > :08:40.that it demands from them and how it treats those

:08:41. > :08:42.who struggle to provide it. The bank's been carrying out more

:08:43. > :08:45.stringent checks in recent years The band Coldplay have denied that

:08:46. > :08:51.they've scheduled concerts in Israel They've taken to social media to say

:08:52. > :08:57.that they are just visiting Their world tour starts

:08:58. > :09:10.in Singapore next month. This is an interesting story that

:09:11. > :09:15.every parent will understand about their baby's first outing being

:09:16. > :09:25.quite stressful. Have a look at this baby polar pair. This is a baby

:09:26. > :09:27.polar bear, in Munich, who took his first steps out in the world.

:09:28. > :09:30.The baby, who is yet to be named, cautiously checked out the ground,

:09:31. > :09:32.drank water and even tried to bite a melon,

:09:33. > :09:36.to the delight of the viewing public.

:09:37. > :09:46.Yes, wondering where the melon is... They are still looking for the!

:09:47. > :09:51.Under there. You can't beat a cute picture like

:09:52. > :09:55.that. If I had said what food will indeed

:09:56. > :09:57.I would not have said Mellon! What would you have gone for? Raw

:09:58. > :09:58.meat. Let's take a look at

:09:59. > :10:09.this morning's papers. The Times newspaper has a story we

:10:10. > :10:14.are looking up. Quotes from David Miliband. Many people said David

:10:15. > :10:19.Miliband... Many people said he shouldn't be the leader of the

:10:20. > :10:23.Labour Party. It is his criticism of what's going on right now, Jeremy

:10:24. > :10:27.Corbyn has driven Labour to its worst position in living memory. The

:10:28. > :10:31.party is now weaker than in the 1980s. These are the comments from

:10:32. > :10:34.David Miliband, speaking of calls from New York, which is where he

:10:35. > :10:39.lives. The Daily Mail has this story about

:10:40. > :10:43.diesel cars. Motorists should be wary of buying cars, this comes from

:10:44. > :10:48.the transport secretary, who made comments on this last night. Chris

:10:49. > :10:52.Grayling suggested that an imminent clampdown on air pollution would

:10:53. > :10:59.encourage a switch to cleaner cars. On the front page of the Daily

:11:00. > :11:02.Telegraph. The king up on the Conservative victory -- picking up.

:11:03. > :11:07.Theresa May declaring the Conservatives truly the party of

:11:08. > :11:10.working people. Saying it is the best victory by a governing party

:11:11. > :11:16.since 1878. The Guardian leads with this story.

:11:17. > :11:21.Also connected to pollution. A story about air pollution. It says tens of

:11:22. > :11:25.thousands of children at more than 800 schools and nurseries in London

:11:26. > :11:29.are being exposed to illegal levels of air pollution, that risks causing

:11:30. > :11:34.lifelong health problems. That's a story in the Guardian. We

:11:35. > :11:35.will have a full review coming up later this morning.

:11:36. > :11:38.Iraqi troops have entered western Mosul for the first time

:11:39. > :11:40.in their offensive to drive out so-called Islamic State

:11:41. > :11:52.West Mosul is the last IS stronghold in Iraq.

:11:53. > :11:54.They're surrounded, along with an estimated 750,000

:11:55. > :11:58.Our correspondent Quentin Somerville and cameraman Nick Millard

:11:59. > :12:02.were the first journalists to head in to the district of Jawsaq.

:12:03. > :12:08.The so-called Islamic State - breached.

:12:09. > :12:10.The very first Iraqi government forces roll into West Mosul,

:12:11. > :12:27.Iraqi forces are encountering heavy resistance as they move into West

:12:28. > :12:34.It has taken them less than a week to get this far,

:12:35. > :12:37.but this is a victory two years in the making after the humiliation

:12:38. > :12:40.of the Islamic State sweep across Iraq...

:12:41. > :12:45.For these men, they realise that beyond here, beyond this

:12:46. > :12:52.neighbourhood, they are likely facing the battle of their lives.

:12:53. > :12:54.The assault started in now practised fashion, armoured columns moving

:12:55. > :13:08.These Iraqi officers plotted the route.

:13:09. > :13:22.Past some greenhouses, they said, and right into IS territory.

:13:23. > :13:25.The caliphate is shrinking, and with few options

:13:26. > :13:32.for their escape, IS is in a fight to the death.

:13:33. > :13:35.Iraq's superior firepower hasn't prevented it from suffering high

:13:36. > :13:46.So while the attack was determined, it was cautious.

:13:47. > :13:50.Standing at the breach, the Iraqi commander in charge...

:13:51. > :13:54.TRANSLATION: I don't know how long it will take to liberate this area.

:13:55. > :13:59.Our Humvees have now moved in, and we will open the road toward IS.

:14:00. > :14:04.Inside the city - signs of civilian life.

:14:05. > :14:11.But in the midst of all this no-one dared leave their homes.

:14:12. > :14:14.There are three quarters of a million people in the streets

:14:15. > :14:18.beyond here, and a few thousand IS fighters.

:14:19. > :14:24.Distinguishing between the two will be very difficult.

:14:25. > :14:26.TRANSLATION: When we liberated the last village we lost a few

:14:27. > :14:32.We have taken this area in Mosul, and we will protect it,

:14:33. > :14:37.and we will not leave until we beat terrorism.

:14:38. > :14:47.It's the sixth day of the campaign, but in the words of one commander,

:14:48. > :14:51.The real fighting started today when they entered the city.

:14:52. > :14:55.Quentin Sommerville, BBC News, West Mosul.

:14:56. > :14:58.In the next hour we'll be speaking to the charity Oxfam,

:14:59. > :15:03.to find out what the situation is like for those fleeing the fighting.

:15:04. > :15:05.You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.

:15:06. > :15:18.People buying a new car are urged by the transport secretary to think

:15:19. > :15:21.long and hard before choosing a diesel, as the government looks at

:15:22. > :15:25.ways to cut air pollution. The White House has barred several

:15:26. > :15:32.major news organisations from a press briefing, being given by

:15:33. > :15:34.President Trump's spokesman. The BBC, CNN and the New York Times were

:15:35. > :15:35.among those excluded. Here's Ben with a look

:15:36. > :15:50.at this morning's weather. Good morning, Ben. It is miserable.

:15:51. > :15:54.We have left is behind us, we will not see anything quite as quite as

:15:55. > :15:58.unpleasant as that. That certainly does not mean it sailing this

:15:59. > :16:03.weekend. We will have a blustery wind out there with outbreaks of

:16:04. > :16:07.rain at times as well. If you have a look at the satellite, there is a

:16:08. > :16:11.pipeline of cloud streaming in towards us. I promise we aren't in

:16:12. > :16:17.if this cloud. That have a closer look at how we start off this

:16:18. > :16:22.morning. A cloudy start across many southern areas. Blustery here as

:16:23. > :16:27.well but milder. Up to 10 degrees if you are about to head out the front

:16:28. > :16:32.door. A little rain around, most of it patchy. Across north-west Wales

:16:33. > :16:35.and England, heavy rain and across Cumbria we will see a lot of rain

:16:36. > :16:40.through today. Northern Ireland and Scotland starting weight and you can

:16:41. > :16:49.see the wind gusts here, Dow falls, easily in exposed spots. As we go on

:16:50. > :16:52.through the day we could be blustery wind, particularly in southern and

:16:53. > :16:56.central areas as this rain continues to move radically southwards and

:16:57. > :17:00.eastwards. Rain continues across Cumbria and sets in across parts of

:17:01. > :17:04.Wales. Fellow other areas, things will brighten up through the

:17:05. > :17:08.afternoon with temperatures dipping away here as cooler or starts to

:17:09. > :17:13.work its way in. Throughout the evening and tonight the rain will

:17:14. > :17:17.continue for a time. Tending to fizzle away and it will eventually

:17:18. > :17:20.clear away. And then we have a dry slot before so more wet weather

:17:21. > :17:25.starts to move into Northern Ireland and western Scotland. That sets us

:17:26. > :17:28.up for tomorrow. In many senses, we do it all that again. Another

:17:29. > :17:31.weather system pushing its way towards us and ahead of it we have

:17:32. > :17:37.some blustery south-westerly winds but again, that means it will be

:17:38. > :17:41.fairly mild. We begin tomorrow with central and eastern areas dry.

:17:42. > :17:45.Perhaps dry and bright but then the rain works in. The rain sets in

:17:46. > :17:48.across Northern Ireland and Scotland. Rain moving in through

:17:49. > :17:53.Wales and into the south-west as well. Ahead of it it is mild, 12

:17:54. > :17:57.degrees and cooler behind. A quick sneak peek at Monday when we lose

:17:58. > :18:02.the weather front and the band of rain but behind it it is rainy.

:18:03. > :18:04.Sunshine, yes, but showered showers which could be wintry with hail and

:18:05. > :18:05.fund. We'll be back with a summary

:18:06. > :18:08.of the news at half past six. Now it's time for the Film Review

:18:09. > :18:23.with Ben Brown and Jason Solomon. Hello and welcome to

:18:24. > :18:26.The Film Review on BBC News. To take us through this week's

:18:27. > :18:30.cinema releases is Jason Solomon. This week we sift the debris

:18:31. > :18:37.of the Boston Marathon in the company of Kevin Bacon

:18:38. > :18:42.and Mark Wahlberg in Patriots Day. We take a long, sad look

:18:43. > :18:44.at the life of footballer And putting you off

:18:45. > :18:53.fluffy robes for life, we seek A Cure For Wellness

:18:54. > :18:59.in a Swiss Alpine spa. It is the story of the 2013

:19:00. > :19:06.Boston Marathon bombing There was this extraordinary bombing

:19:07. > :19:14.of the Boston Marathon, Their names were on

:19:15. > :19:25.everyone's lips in 2013. Everyone remembers,

:19:26. > :19:41.the brothers that escaped. They had to shut the city down

:19:42. > :19:44.looking for the brothers. One was holed up in a boat

:19:45. > :19:47.in someone else's backyard. The strangely human

:19:48. > :19:49.story of this wanton The film is put together

:19:50. > :19:53.in a classic disaster film fashion. The people assembling for the big

:19:54. > :19:56.day of the Boston Marathon, and including Mark Wahlberg

:19:57. > :19:59.as a cop. Then there is the Kevin Bacon,

:20:00. > :20:03.the FBI man, and John Goodman This is them having a look

:20:04. > :20:10.after the explosion. You're not any closer

:20:11. > :20:12.to identifying the guys that If we release the pictures now

:20:13. > :20:23.it's out of our control. Gentlemen, if I may, right now,

:20:24. > :20:26.Boston is working against us. Right now, in this city,

:20:27. > :20:29.when it comes to terrorism, There are a lot of people talking,

:20:30. > :20:39.but talking about the wrong people. Release the pictures of our guys,

:20:40. > :20:41.sit back and listen. Start letting Boston work

:20:42. > :20:44.for us, I'm telling you. But I can't snap my fingers on this,

:20:45. > :20:51.the decision goes up It is difficult to make

:20:52. > :21:10.a Hollywood film about such And the director has been faithful

:21:11. > :21:15.as much as he can and to those affected by the tragedy and injured,

:21:16. > :21:18.the people with the amputations. The people at the end

:21:19. > :21:21.of the film discussing how It's a healing process

:21:22. > :21:26.for the town of Boston. There is Mark Wahlberg,

:21:27. > :21:29.a poster boy for Boston. What it does not do is examine

:21:30. > :21:42.the motives of the brothers, who out While it does feature them,

:21:43. > :21:50.they go in their homes and feature their wives,

:21:51. > :21:53.but it does not probe the motives. How can the renegade terrorists

:21:54. > :21:58.provoke such a carnage and bring So it was a bit hurrah,

:21:59. > :22:06.this film for me. The clip that we saw,

:22:07. > :22:09.it looked like a thriller. It is very much of the safety

:22:10. > :22:20.of the American citizens, protected by the great policemen

:22:21. > :22:22.and the Ambulance Service. They will track down

:22:23. > :22:25.the killers, the media helping. Although they look hapless,

:22:26. > :22:28.as the brothers led them a merry dance for 89 hours and ended up

:22:29. > :22:31.hiding in someone's boat. It is slightly ridiculous,

:26:12. > :26:20.don't watch the next bit. There are lots of old contraptions

:33:02. > :33:04.Leicester fans are still stunned after the sacking of Claudio

:33:05. > :33:09.Ranieri. He has gone home after a rather emotional farewell for many.

:33:10. > :33:14.Remind us of the quota. He waited for comments.

:33:15. > :33:19.Was it a tweet? It was a statement. He said he loved the fans, he loved

:33:20. > :33:21.every minute and to always remember what they achieved because it always

:33:22. > :33:25.put a smile on his face every day. Claudio Ranieri says his dream died,

:33:26. > :33:28.when he was sacked nine months Ranieri was dismissed

:33:29. > :33:31.on Thursday with Leicester, sitting one point above

:33:32. > :33:33.the relegation zone, after a string of poor

:33:34. > :33:36.performances in the league. The decision to sack the Italian

:33:37. > :33:47.hasn't gone down well with lifelong They've probably panicked under

:33:48. > :33:52.circumstances. They get this kind of myth that a new manager comes in and

:33:53. > :33:56.everything is OK again. Well, the facts and statistics tell us it

:33:57. > :34:01.doesn't make much difference. I think they should be building

:34:02. > :34:05.statues to him, not sacking him. He deserved a bit more time than this.

:34:06. > :34:10.I'm not afraid to say that when the news broke I shed a tear. For him

:34:11. > :34:10.and for football. I shed a tear for the club.

:34:11. > :34:13.Leicester aren't back in action until Monday night.

:34:14. > :34:16.But they could start that game in the relegation zone,

:34:17. > :34:19.if any of Hull, Crystal Palace or Sunderland win today.

:34:20. > :34:22.Here's what's happening in the Premier League today then.

:34:23. > :34:26.A win for Hull over Burnley would see them out of the bottom

:34:27. > :34:29.three, while Palace and Sunderland can capitalise if Hull slip up.

:34:30. > :34:33.At the top, Chelsea could go 11 points clear with a win over

:34:34. > :34:54.He is doing a great job with them and has had great impact with the

:34:55. > :34:56.team. They are very compact defensively. We must pay attention

:34:57. > :35:05.to the set pieces. Inverness are out over a late win

:35:06. > :35:08.over Rangers last night. Greg County gave them the lead. Rangers then

:35:09. > :35:13.levelled from the penalty spot for Caley Thistle lost their own

:35:14. > :35:18.penalty. But they won't be denied. How about this? An overhead kick to

:35:19. > :35:19.snatch all three points. Spectacular.

:35:20. > :35:21.Ireland will be looking to re-establish themselves

:35:22. > :35:23.in the title race, as the Six Nations Championship

:35:24. > :35:26.resumes today when they take on a resurgent France.

:35:27. > :35:29.You can follow that on BBC Radio Five Live Sports Extra,

:35:30. > :35:34.Before then, live on BBC One from two o'clock, Scotland

:35:35. > :35:43.will try to end their decade-long, winless streak, against Wales.

:35:44. > :35:46.Vern Cotter's side are missing five key men, including captain

:35:47. > :35:49.Greg Laidlaw, who's been replace by Scarlets flanker John Barclay,

:35:50. > :35:53.who should know a thing or two about the opposition.

:35:54. > :36:00.I know living in Wales what rugby means there. I know the pressure is

:36:01. > :36:08.on. Probably for me I think there's always huge pressure to win. People

:36:09. > :36:16.tell me that, it is half in jest. I'm a Scottish person and somewhere

:36:17. > :36:21.that's not full of rugby. It is full on rugby so I think they're winning

:36:22. > :36:28.is everything for them. It is a different Scottish team to

:36:29. > :36:32.potentially what we've seen before and like I say we are very focused

:36:33. > :36:37.on the squad that we have at the minute and what we need to do off

:36:38. > :36:39.the back of our game. You're only as good as your next one, not the last

:36:40. > :36:41.one, and we are focused on that. In the women's tournament,

:36:42. > :36:47.Scotland won their first Six Nations game in six years,

:36:48. > :36:50.with a 15-14 win over Wales. It's the first time,

:36:51. > :36:53.they have beaten the Welsh in 30 meetings and they had

:36:54. > :36:56.to do it the hard way, Sarah Law with the vital penalty,

:36:57. > :37:01.to seal the victory by a single point at the Broadwood stadium,

:37:02. > :37:03.just north of Glasgow. Domestically, there was one game

:37:04. > :37:06.in the Premiership last night. Leicester beat Harlequins

:37:07. > :37:08.27-18 at The Stoop. After taking an early lead,

:37:09. > :37:11.it was Quins who led at half time, Freddie Burns scoring more

:37:12. > :37:15.than half their points, with their third and final

:37:16. > :37:17.try as well. Leicester are now level,

:37:18. > :37:19.with fourth placed Bath In the Pro 12, Cardiff

:37:20. > :37:24.narrowly won at Edinburgh to inflict more misery

:37:25. > :37:28.on the Scottish team. Cardiff were looking beaten,

:37:29. > :37:31.11 points down on the hour, Lloyd Williams with the match

:37:32. > :37:34.winning try. Elsewhere, Newport Gwent Dragons

:37:35. > :37:38.lost to Leinster and Scarlets beat And this lunchtime sees the first

:37:39. > :37:41.transatlantic sports team take Toronto Wolfpack will compete

:37:42. > :37:44.in domestic English rugby They are in Yorkshire to face Siddal

:37:45. > :37:49.in the Challenge Cup. Wolfpack will compete in the third

:37:50. > :37:52.tier of the sport this season and their aim is to become

:37:53. > :37:55.a Super League side You can watch their first game

:37:56. > :38:03.on the BBC Sport website at 1pm. It was a busy night in super league

:38:04. > :38:07.last night, with five games. Warrington were hoping for another

:38:08. > :38:09.win after their victory over the Brisbane Broncos

:38:10. > :38:13.in the World Club Series, but they were left red

:38:14. > :38:16.faced by Castleford, whose man of the match,

:38:17. > :38:18.Zak Hardaker, And they never looked back

:38:19. > :38:24.after the 30-22 win. Elsewhere, world champions Wigan

:38:25. > :38:28.avoided a similar slump after their World

:38:29. > :38:30.Club Series success. They were 14 points down

:38:31. > :38:32.at one stage in the second half against Widnes,

:38:33. > :38:35.but Wigan won 28-26 in the end. Leeds also left it

:38:36. > :38:37.late to beat Salford, and there were also

:38:38. > :38:39.wins for Huddersfield That was their first

:38:40. > :38:43.win back Super League. Britain's Mark Cavendish has

:38:44. > :38:45.retained the overall lead, after the second stage

:38:46. > :38:48.of the Tour of Abu Dhabi. Australian Caleb Ewan

:38:49. > :38:50.thought he'd won the stage and raised his arms a little

:38:51. > :38:52.early in celebration, before realising he'd been pipped

:38:53. > :38:55.at the line by Germany's Cavendish came in third,

:38:56. > :39:14.to keep hold of the overall Probably he was fortunately in the

:39:15. > :39:18.right position. That's just the power of him, he is going to come

:39:19. > :39:22.across fast and get over the line. That was well played. I am kind of

:39:23. > :39:23.happy with that. The team were exceptional again, really

:39:24. > :39:27.exceptional. The sport of free running,

:39:28. > :39:30.or parkour, has until now been seen as a daring activity

:39:31. > :39:33.for young adrenalin seekers. However, there are now classes

:39:34. > :39:36.being run for the over 60s, and those giving it a go

:39:37. > :39:39.are finding that it's helping to improve their balance

:39:40. > :39:41.and spacial awareness, therefore reducing their risk

:39:42. > :39:44.of falling in later life. I've been to join a parkour fitness

:39:45. > :39:55.class in east London. It is the sport that is transformed

:39:56. > :40:00.our urban landscape. In the decade since parkour or free running first

:40:01. > :40:07.arrived in the UK. But now meet the class of 2017, all in their 60s, 70s

:40:08. > :40:12.and 80s. They are feeling the benefits, as they overcome obstacles

:40:13. > :40:16.and explore their environment the parkour way, through a series of

:40:17. > :40:20.games and physical challenges. Parkour has come such a long way in

:40:21. > :40:24.the last decade, since it was mainly young male looking to do dangerous

:40:25. > :40:29.things on tall buildings. Now it is for all, including George, who is 88

:40:30. > :40:37.and enjoying swinging. How was that? All right. I like swinging. As you

:40:38. > :40:41.get older you get lazy. I haven't been doing anything for years, so

:40:42. > :40:46.I've been getting very lazy. I don't want to move. That this given you a

:40:47. > :40:56.new lease on life? Yes, it has again. You've got it! Earlier this

:40:57. > :41:00.year, parkour was officially recognised as a sport by the UK's

:41:01. > :41:05.various sports councils and this opens up access to new funds for

:41:06. > :41:10.more crisis like this in other cities. This is more than a bit of

:41:11. > :41:16.fun. Like that? They are finding this is helping to prevent people

:41:17. > :41:19.from falling in later life. We found balance and strength in particular

:41:20. > :41:23.has been improving the most in the body and so we had a lot of people

:41:24. > :41:27.say that they've helped them do not fall and be less fearful of just

:41:28. > :41:32.going out and doing everyday activities. Indeed, no one here said

:41:33. > :41:39.they fallen since they started this activity. I just feel kind of perky,

:41:40. > :41:44.which is all right! You get a fall and then you have to go to the

:41:45. > :41:47.doctor. No thank you very much! There are also classes to improve

:41:48. > :41:52.mental health. Parkour aims to help the way we deal with problems and

:41:53. > :41:56.challenges that everyday life at us. Parkour is such an inclusive sport

:41:57. > :42:00.because there is no competitive behaviour and no entry level, so it

:42:01. > :42:04.is playtime for anybody who wants to learn. I think this is excellent. It

:42:05. > :42:05.takes people out of their comfort zone, which is where you learn

:42:06. > :42:18.things. This is a very friendly exercise,

:42:19. > :42:22.isn't it? A final exercise was to pass each other on a narrow wall.

:42:23. > :42:25.Full of fear and we would be in trouble. We've come together,

:42:26. > :42:29.explored and got up close and personal with our surroundings in a

:42:30. > :42:33.way in me never thought possible before. This is a long way from that

:42:34. > :42:34.extreme image many of us have of parkour, but the sense of

:42:35. > :42:40.achievement is just the same. It is such a warm and friendly

:42:41. > :42:45.feeling at the same. It was wonderful. That's great.

:42:46. > :42:49.Looks like really good fun. Find out where your local parkour classes are

:42:50. > :42:53.on the BBC website. Thanks very much and we are staying

:42:54. > :42:57.on the sporting theme. Ireland is taking on France in the Six Nations

:42:58. > :43:02.today, but the result would be the be all and end all for the winner

:43:03. > :43:08.of. He always reads the Bible before he steps the pitch, so what does his

:43:09. > :43:09.faith and to his game? Our religious affairs correspondent has been to

:43:10. > :43:17.meet him. I love the game. I love playing

:43:18. > :43:27.rugby. It is the biggest part of my career. Andrew Trimble's obsession

:43:28. > :43:31.with rugby union heaped in November, with Ireland's first ever victory

:43:32. > :43:35.over world champions New Zealand. After the game we were just walking

:43:36. > :43:41.around, shaking our heads, going, what have we done? With just beaten

:43:42. > :43:46.the All Blacks. No Irish team has ever done this before. But he says

:43:47. > :43:52.it's a miracle that he even managed to play. Just 16 months earlier he

:43:53. > :43:57.had two operations on the same foot and suffered a stress fracture.

:43:58. > :44:03.There are not many people who are in careers where they get to the age of

:44:04. > :44:06.29 and could lose everything. It's important to be reminded that there

:44:07. > :44:10.is something else out there and something more important than rugby.

:44:11. > :44:17.I think that shapes my thinking and my perspective on rugby, on sport,

:44:18. > :44:23.on my career. What is that perspective? There's an eternal

:44:24. > :44:27.perspective. Rugby is something that lasts for 10- 15 years, but the

:44:28. > :44:34.perspective of having faith and having a sincere faith and that

:44:35. > :44:40.defining me, that's something that doesn't end and something that lasts

:44:41. > :44:48.forever. My soul yearns, even feints, for the courts of the Lord.

:44:49. > :44:53.My heart and flesh prides... He reads this prayer before every

:44:54. > :44:57.match. Rugby and religion, a new perspective that he says remind him

:44:58. > :45:02.that life should not be solely defined by what happens on the

:45:03. > :45:07.pitch. But one day in your courts than 1000 elsewhere. It also

:45:08. > :45:12.explained why he chose to visit the refugee camp in Tanzania last year.

:45:13. > :45:15.They have hopes and dreams and aspirations to fulfil their

:45:16. > :45:19.potential, in the same way I do, and faced being cut short. They might

:45:20. > :45:25.never get to leave that refugee camp. It's something I've maybe had

:45:26. > :45:33.a better appreciation of since I became a father 1.5 years ago. This

:45:34. > :45:36.afternoon, Ireland face France and the final words that Andrew Trimble

:45:37. > :45:41.will hear before running onto the pitch won't come from his coach, but

:45:42. > :45:45.from the old Testament. For the Lord God is a son and shields. No good

:45:46. > :45:51.thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless. Oh Lord,

:45:52. > :45:53.Almighty, as it is -- as it is the man here in you. Ancient Wisdom for

:45:54. > :46:03.modern sport. You're watching

:46:04. > :46:05.Breakfast from BBC News. Here's Ben with a look

:46:06. > :46:17.at this morning's weather. This is our first picture of the

:46:18. > :46:23.day. This is how the day is dawning. Gloomy and cloudy. We wave goodbye

:46:24. > :46:27.to Doris, thankfully and we do not expect anything that windy through

:46:28. > :46:32.the weekend. But it will still be blustery out there. There will be a

:46:33. > :46:36.lot of cloud around today and rain at times. This is the satellite, a

:46:37. > :46:41.pipeline coming in across the British Isles. I promise we are

:46:42. > :46:45.underneath you somewhere. We sat all, a mild south-westerly wind. It

:46:46. > :46:48.starts across the south-west of England and into the Channel

:46:49. > :46:53.Islands. Rain is the Midlands and Anglia. The rain will be patchy

:46:54. > :46:58.nature. It will be blustery out there lend great breezy and then

:46:59. > :47:02.into northern Wales in north-west England heavy rain starts to set in

:47:03. > :47:06.and that will be around for a good part of the day. Northern Ireland

:47:07. > :47:14.and Scott Boland got off to a soggy start as well. The wind gusts comic

:47:15. > :47:19.here you can see some at gale force. As we go on through the day the rain

:47:20. > :47:22.in the north-west will gradually topple south and eastwards but as I

:47:23. > :47:26.mentioned, reigning all day long I suspect for parts of Cumbria and

:47:27. > :47:31.Wales. All travelling conditions here. To the south-east, patchy rain

:47:32. > :47:35.and a blustery day. In the north-west the rains will leave a

:47:36. > :47:39.little bit. A little bit of afternoon sunshine here and one or

:47:40. > :47:43.two showers and will become a look cooler. Throughout this evening and

:47:44. > :47:47.tonight the rain continues a radically. Sizzling away as it goes.

:47:48. > :47:51.Another note of dry weather before more rain arrives into the

:47:52. > :47:56.north-west. Wet by the end of the night and through tomorrow that rain

:47:57. > :48:00.will move again erratically southwards and eastwards and it will

:48:01. > :48:03.set in for a good part of the day for Northern Ireland and Scotland,

:48:04. > :48:07.getting in again to Cumbria, again to north Wales. A list of that

:48:08. > :48:11.another mild and fairly blustery day and the temperature tomorrow will

:48:12. > :48:15.reach around 12 degrees in the south-east. Cooling off towards the

:48:16. > :48:19.south-west of the day goes on and that takes us into Monday. They cool

:48:20. > :48:26.and blustery day. Sunshine, heavy showers, perhaps wintry with hail

:48:27. > :48:28.and fund. You very much, then. We will be back with the headlines at

:48:29. > :48:51.seven o'clock. From blue screen jungles

:48:52. > :48:53.to strange adventures in time, over the past few weeks we've been

:48:54. > :48:57.exploring some of the best visual effects from the past year and this

:48:58. > :49:00.week is no exception. Directed by Gareth Edwards,

:49:01. > :49:03.the visual genius behind Monsters and Godzilla, Rogue One has earned

:49:04. > :49:06.over $1 billion at the worldwide box office and has,

:49:07. > :49:08.unsurprisingly, been nominated Edwards worked with the team

:49:09. > :49:19.at Industrial Lights and Magic to recreate that galaxy far,

:49:20. > :49:24.far away and, as we found out when we visited their London

:49:25. > :49:27.office, they provided some very cool kit to help facilitate his

:49:28. > :49:31.unique directing style. He likes to walk around his sets

:49:32. > :49:38.and physically pick up the camera himself and walk around and find

:49:39. > :49:44.interesting angles that might not have occurred to him

:49:45. > :49:47.when he was planning out Our vision effects supervisor

:49:48. > :49:52.was keen that he could apply the same style of filming

:49:53. > :49:55.to the synthetic cameras, so we used a real-time

:49:56. > :49:58.virtual reality system, and therefore he can show us

:49:59. > :50:04.rather than explain to us. And this is it?

:50:05. > :50:06.This is it. This is what we call

:50:07. > :50:09.our VCam Renderer. Can I just point out,

:50:10. > :50:12.it's an iPad with a Vive controller And we can set it up

:50:13. > :50:20.relatively easily and quickly. And is this where he did these

:50:21. > :50:23.scenes, in this room? This is where he shot his

:50:24. > :50:28.virtual camera work. So this is a scene

:50:29. > :50:30.that was actually set up for a trailer, the first trailer,

:50:31. > :50:34.that we did for Rogue One. You have this scene running

:50:35. > :50:37.and he would just walk around and decide on his best angles

:50:38. > :50:40.and then after that you would tidy The idea wasn't that he would be

:50:41. > :50:48.getting perfectly smooth, composed camera moves,

:50:49. > :50:51.but he was able to sort of show to us, the beginning of the shot,

:50:52. > :50:56.I want it here, the end of the shot, We could then publish this

:50:57. > :50:59.through our pipeline software, and then it could be immediately

:51:00. > :51:02.picked up by animators We shot this with Gareth in London,

:51:03. > :51:06.we then pushed it into our pipeline, it was then picked up by people

:51:07. > :51:10.in San Francisco and the take was ready for him to

:51:11. > :51:12.review the next morning. May I have a go?

:51:13. > :51:14.Absolutely. So the animation in this scene

:51:15. > :51:21.is the dish of the Death Star. Oh, look, you can

:51:22. > :51:23.see behind the dish! So I can get a different shot

:51:24. > :51:28.to Gareth if I wanted? If I find a better

:51:29. > :51:31.shot, do I get a job? It's the dish going

:51:32. > :51:54.to the Death Star. So, here, we're following X-Wing

:51:55. > :51:57.as it makes its approach run We can just move around and frame up

:51:58. > :52:07.on camera moves and follow the ship This film is set near minutes before

:52:08. > :52:13.the very first film, and so getting these computer

:52:14. > :52:16.generated models to look exactly like the physical models

:52:17. > :52:18.from 1977 was, I guess, Our friends and colleagues

:52:19. > :52:29.in San Francisco took digital scans of the original models

:52:30. > :52:32.from the art department, and they had lots of texture

:52:33. > :52:36.references, and thankfully just recreated them so that

:52:37. > :52:38.there wouldn't be any jarring differences between these

:52:39. > :52:51.ships and the ships in New Hope. We have teams of people

:52:52. > :52:55.who are responsible for laying out camera moves, we have teams

:52:56. > :53:00.of people who are building digital We've got a fantastic team

:53:01. > :53:06.of animators and then we've got a great team of compositors,

:53:07. > :53:09.who take all of the renders that we generate and put it

:53:10. > :53:14.all together with the footage and integrate it into hopefully

:53:15. > :53:17.photorealistic results. So this model here, of Jedha,

:53:18. > :53:20.is that completely full detail, so you can move the

:53:21. > :53:27.camera to anywhere? We had a camera that rotated around

:53:28. > :53:31.on its own axis and we moved it randomly around the city and ended

:53:32. > :53:34.up with hundreds of views. So many of them were just

:53:35. > :53:37.fascinating in what they ended up Because typically, if you're

:53:38. > :53:40.given a shot to lay out, you'll start dressing

:53:41. > :53:42.everything to the camera. So you'll start laying out buildings

:53:43. > :53:46.that stack away from the camera and, typically with lighting,

:53:47. > :53:48.you would start with back lighting at three quarters,

:53:49. > :53:53.from one direction. But what we found was that,

:53:54. > :53:55.because none of those considerations have been taken, you just end up

:53:56. > :53:59.with occasionally finding views that are so natural,

:54:00. > :54:01.so the lighting might just be illuminating one half

:54:02. > :54:04.of a wall in the background, for example, or none of the roads

:54:05. > :54:07.are perpendicular to the camera and they're all going

:54:08. > :54:09.off at weird angles. So that was really successful

:54:10. > :54:13.and we ended up using a lot of those views as the background in a lot

:54:14. > :54:19.of our blue screen shoots. Hello and welcome

:54:20. > :54:34.to the Week In Tech. It was the week that Uber found

:54:35. > :54:38.itself under fire after a former employee accused the company

:54:39. > :54:42.of sexual harassment in a blog post. Uber responded, saying it

:54:43. > :54:44.would conduct an urgent investigation into the claims

:54:45. > :54:48.which it called abhorrent and against everything Uber stands

:54:49. > :54:52.for and believes in. It was also the week that YouTube

:54:53. > :54:55.announced it would get rid Scientists at MIT showed off

:54:56. > :55:01.a special coating making it easier And astronomers have detected seven

:55:02. > :55:08.Earth-sized planets orbiting And, yes, before you ask,

:55:09. > :55:13.three of them may have conditions And finally, researchers

:55:14. > :55:20.at Brigham Young University have shown off an origami-inspired light

:55:21. > :55:25.weight bullet-proof shield. The barrier is made up of 12 layers

:55:26. > :55:28.of bullet-proof Kevlar and weighs How many faces can you

:55:29. > :55:50.see in this picture? This is a persistence

:55:51. > :55:58.of vision display. You can only see it when your eyes,

:55:59. > :56:02.or in our case the camera, We've slowed right down

:56:03. > :56:08.so you can really feast on... So, a persistence of vision display

:56:09. > :56:16.is predicated upon the persistence of vision phenomenon,

:56:17. > :56:20.which is an effect in the human eye. And it's the effect where

:56:21. > :56:23.when you look at any bright light and you look away you see a ghost

:56:24. > :56:27.of that bright light for a moment. So what happens is our display takes

:56:28. > :56:30.a standard two-dimensional image and it breaks it up into vertical

:56:31. > :56:33.columns of pixel data. This single vertical line of light

:56:34. > :56:36.blinks out each column sequentially, so column one, two, three,

:56:37. > :56:39.until it gets to the end So as your eye looks

:56:40. > :56:45.away from the display, it prints each column in your retina

:56:46. > :56:48.in a different location and the whole image

:56:49. > :56:51.is reassembled in your eye. Moving strips of super fast flashing

:56:52. > :56:55.LEDs have painted pictures or text in the air for a couple of decades

:56:56. > :56:58.now, but Lightvert relies on our eyes to do

:56:59. > :57:03.the moving instead. Something they are naturally

:57:04. > :57:06.doing all the time. We've created a new type

:57:07. > :57:14.of projection technique for creating persistence of vision displays

:57:15. > :57:21.and we patented that globally and what that lets us do

:57:22. > :57:24.is scale up the size So, with LEDs and other light

:57:25. > :57:28.sources, it becomes challenging to create a display that's more

:57:29. > :57:31.than say three metres tall. But with our Echo technology we can

:57:32. > :57:35.create a display that's up to 300 metres tall, effectively turning

:57:36. > :57:37.entire skyscrapers into the world's And that's why if you've been

:57:38. > :57:42.walking down a particular street in Berlin last Monday,

:57:43. > :57:46.you might have seen my face out Do you think this is too distracting

:57:47. > :58:00.for drivers, for example? It's very important

:58:01. > :58:03.that we introduce it in the right way and it's not going to be

:58:04. > :58:06.for every location. I certainly wouldn't

:58:07. > :58:08.want to introduce this medium next We need people to understand it and,

:58:09. > :58:12.much like when LED billboards first came into the public realm,

:58:13. > :58:15.they were very distracting and there was legislation instantly

:58:16. > :58:18.put in place in order to prevent We're going to have

:58:19. > :58:23.to travel a similar path. And that's not the only eye-catching

:58:24. > :58:31.projection I've seen this week. Ahead of next week's

:58:32. > :58:33.Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, I've also managed to get a sneak

:58:34. > :58:36.preview of the future It's the latest version

:58:37. > :58:47.of Sony's Xperia projector. It's an Android-based device that

:58:48. > :58:50.throws a touch sensitive display It has all the touchscreen

:58:51. > :58:54.functionality of a tablet, including pinch and zoom,

:58:55. > :58:58.with your fingers positions being watched by a camera under

:58:59. > :59:01.the projector and a row of infrared sensors at table level to detect

:59:05. > :59:13.where our devices will be so small that we won't want a screen

:59:14. > :59:17.or a keyboard or any kind of input device attached to

:59:18. > :59:19.them and I see this You just have a display

:59:20. > :59:24.when you want it, on whatever That's it for the shortcut

:59:25. > :59:32.of Click this week. The full version is on iPlayer right

:01:07. > :01:14.to the Lake District Island that inspired the foundation

:01:15. > :01:16.of the National Trust. The weather doesn't look

:01:17. > :01:21.particularly inspiring this weekend. Some rain at times and it

:01:22. > :01:26.will be fairly blustery. Motorists should think long and hard

:01:27. > :01:38.before buying a diesel car. That's the message from

:01:39. > :01:41.the Transport Secretary Chris He's urging drivers to consider

:01:42. > :01:45.a less-polluting vehicle instead. Four in ten cars on Britain's

:01:46. > :01:48.roads are diesel. Under Labour, they had been billed

:01:49. > :01:52.as the clean alternative to petrol Now they're said to be one

:01:53. > :01:58.of the reasons for increasing levels Let's get more on this

:01:59. > :02:02.with our correspondent Nick Quraishi,

:02:03. > :02:12.who's in central London. Good morning. Chris Grayling's word

:02:13. > :02:18.CenterMark dramatic shift from what Labour did when it was in power. In

:02:19. > :02:27.2001 Gordon Brown as Chancellor reduced taxes on low sulphur fuel.

:02:28. > :02:32.That led the diesel car registrations to more than double.

:02:33. > :02:37.There are 12 million diesel cars on the roads and with that comes

:02:38. > :02:42.pollution. According to government estimates ten to 30,500 people died

:02:43. > :02:50.in the UK from nitrogen dioxide levels. -- 23,500. Department for

:02:51. > :02:54.transport sources say he isn't saying not to buy diesel, just think

:02:55. > :02:57.about alternatives. Government says it is committed to reducing harmful

:02:58. > :03:03.emissions and improving air quality and says it will come up with bans

:03:04. > :03:06.later this year is. One of them is a scrappage scheme, so motorists will

:03:07. > :03:12.be paid to get rid of their old diesels in favour of something less

:03:13. > :03:16.polluting and we know that in London the Mayor has announced a toxicity

:03:17. > :03:21.charge, which means from October the most polluting diesels will have to

:03:22. > :03:25.pay ?10 per day to enter the city. A move which will no doubt be eagerly

:03:26. > :03:26.watched by other places in the UK. Thank you.

:03:27. > :03:28.The former Labour Foreign Secretary David Miliband has said

:03:29. > :03:32.that the party is further from power than it has been at any time

:03:33. > :03:38.In an interview in the Times newspaper, Mr Miliband said

:03:46. > :03:48.Here's our political correspondent Chris Mason.

:03:49. > :03:51.Jeremy Corbyn went to Stoke yesterday to look and sound

:03:52. > :03:57.His man had won the by-election there, activists were delighted.

:03:58. > :04:01.But Labour's vote slid in Stoke and the party has suffered

:04:02. > :04:05.a Cumbrian humbling 140 miles north in Copeland,

:04:06. > :04:15.Enter from New York the man some in the Labour Party see

:04:16. > :04:17.as the best leader they never had, David Miliband.

:04:18. > :04:19.He now runs a charity, the International Rescue Committee,

:04:20. > :04:23.and this is not the first time he has been a public doom-monger

:04:24. > :04:32.Labour, he told the Times, had lost support among

:04:33. > :04:43.But those loyal to the leader say it is not all Jeremy Corbyn's

:04:44. > :04:52.I would actually like to talk about issues and what it is that

:04:53. > :04:55.makes a difference to people's lives.

:04:56. > :04:59.And what makes a difference to people's lives is having the sort

:05:00. > :05:01.of government that will address the concerns

:05:02. > :05:05.This government does not and we need to make clear

:05:06. > :05:07.that we are the alternative and we have alternative solutions

:05:08. > :05:15.That is the challenge for the bus it can't be laid at the door of one

:05:16. > :05:16.individual. But plenty of other Labour MPs see

:05:17. > :05:19.what has happened as evidence of what they've always

:05:20. > :05:21.feared with Jeremy Corbyn, Don't expect them to try to get

:05:22. > :05:29.rid of Mr Corbyn now, though, because they know

:05:30. > :05:31.what happened when they Let's speak to our political

:05:32. > :05:35.correspondent, Matt Cole, who's in our London

:05:36. > :05:46.newsroom this morning. Another tough day for Jeremy Corbyn.

:05:47. > :05:50.Yes, he could probably do without this voice from the past. Not the

:05:51. > :05:54.first time David Miliband has been critical of Jeremy Corbyn's

:05:55. > :05:58.leadership, but certainly the man who was beaten by his own brother in

:05:59. > :06:02.2010 is probably more concerned about the loss in Copland. If Labour

:06:03. > :06:07.were to lose other seats in the same way, by the same swing, in a general

:06:08. > :06:13.election, they could find themselves below 200 seats. The Tory majority

:06:14. > :06:17.could go on for 125, something like that, so clearly David Miliband is

:06:18. > :06:21.concerned. He says he thinks Labour is in a worse position than it was

:06:22. > :06:25.in the 1980s and must confront the historic nature of the problems. He

:06:26. > :06:35.isn't the only voice of criticism around. The leader of the Unison

:06:36. > :06:38.union says they -- David Miliband should take some of the blame

:06:39. > :06:42.himself for the loss in Copland. Jeremy Corbyn says they will keep

:06:43. > :06:44.campaigning and is pointing to the fact that they did hold Stoke.

:06:45. > :06:44.Thanks very much. Several news organisations,

:06:45. > :06:47.including the BBC, have been barred from entering a press

:09:25. > :09:28.is being over-zealous with the information

:09:29. > :09:30.that it demands from them and how it treats those

:09:31. > :09:35.who struggle to provide it. The bank's been carrying out more

:09:36. > :09:38.stringent checks in recent years Every parent knows that baby's

:09:55. > :09:57.cautiously checked out the ground, drank water and even

:09:58. > :10:00.tried to bite a melon, to the delight of

:10:01. > :10:08.the viewing public. Knocked over slightly by mum, but

:10:09. > :10:13.all well. That's an animal park in Munich.

:10:14. > :10:21.We will of course have all of the sport and we -- the weather coming

:10:22. > :10:21.up later. The battle to take back control

:10:22. > :10:25.of the Iraqi city of Mosul from so called Islamic State has

:10:26. > :10:28.been going on for four months. So far the United Nations

:10:29. > :10:30.estimates that 160,000 people have fled their homes,

:10:31. > :10:33.but many more will follow. This week the BBC has been

:10:34. > :10:35.broadcasting reports from Quentin Sommerville,

:10:36. > :10:37.who's with Iraqi troops. Here's a look at what he's sent

:10:38. > :11:00.from the front-line. The Iraqi army are starting their

:11:01. > :11:06.assault on Western those all. They've breached their own defences.

:11:07. > :11:13.-- Western Mosul. Armoured vehicles are getting ready. They are over

:11:14. > :11:16.that way and they know these men are coming. They are dug in and the

:11:17. > :11:27.assault on Western Mosul has started. These armoured columns are

:11:28. > :11:30.now moving forward to Mosul airport. The attack for the airport is under

:11:31. > :11:35.way. All night long we've heard coalition aircraft and Iraqi

:11:36. > :12:04.artillery slam this area just to the north of us.

:12:05. > :12:14.Iraqi forces are encountering every resistance as the roof into West

:12:15. > :12:20.Mosul. -- move into. It has taken in less than one week to get this far

:12:21. > :12:24.and this is a victory after the humiliation of the Islamic State

:12:25. > :12:28.across Iraq. These men realise that beyond here, beyond this

:12:29. > :12:33.neighbourhood, they are likely facing the battle of their lives.

:12:34. > :12:39.Let's talk to someone who works with Oxfam and has been to some of the

:12:40. > :12:45.villages where families have fled. She joins us now from Erbil. We were

:12:46. > :12:50.just seeing bear from our reporter that the fighting that's been

:12:51. > :12:56.happening over the past few days... What is it been like for the

:12:57. > :13:00.civilians? As you can see from the report there is quite heavy fighting

:13:01. > :13:05.happening in the villages around the airport and that's where I was

:13:06. > :13:07.yesterday, meeting families who fled from the south of Mosul and the

:13:08. > :13:13.southern villages. They are exhausted and traumatised and even

:13:14. > :13:20.just the sound of gunfire and artillery is really frightening for

:13:21. > :13:24.people. Not least they lived under a Isis for two years, so they've been

:13:25. > :13:28.through a lot. People said yesterday that they had to sneak out in the

:13:29. > :13:32.night, with very little with them, just what they could carry and made

:13:33. > :13:35.their way towards the front line, waving white flags in the hope that

:13:36. > :13:44.they can reach safety. It sounds terrifying. Do they have places to

:13:45. > :13:51.stay? Are they being helped? Yes, I met with a man who had taken in 40

:13:52. > :13:57.people into his house. Around 450 people had arrived in Erbil in the

:13:58. > :14:02.past few days and so are lots of people had taken other people in and

:14:03. > :14:07.were looking after them while they were waiting to be taken to camps.

:14:08. > :14:11.Obviously one of the issues is about getting supplies to people as well.

:14:12. > :14:16.Is there enough food for people, enough water? People were telling me

:14:17. > :14:22.yesterday that in the last few months there's been... Supply routes

:14:23. > :14:26.have been cut off the villages and left him struggling to eat and

:14:27. > :14:33.haven't had access to healthcare and clean water. So they aren't in a

:14:34. > :14:37.good physical space, so they do really need food, water and blankets

:14:38. > :14:41.and warm clothes because it is really cold here at the moment. As

:14:42. > :14:46.you say that obviously been through an horrific ordeal and under the

:14:47. > :14:52.control of Isis for the past few years. Do they have hope that things

:14:53. > :14:58.are getting better? Well, I think in the first instance they are pleased

:14:59. > :15:03.to have reached safety and be out of the frontline fighting and to be out

:15:04. > :15:09.of the control of Isis. They were telling me now hoping they will soon

:15:10. > :15:12.be going home, so there is hope that they will be able to go back,

:15:13. > :15:17.rebuild their lives and start again. When we talk about them going home,

:15:18. > :15:21.will their homes still be there? That's going to be tough in itself,

:15:22. > :15:27.the challenge of what happens next. Yes, I mean, having seen the other

:15:28. > :15:33.places in the last few months that have been retaken and people have

:15:34. > :15:38.gone back to... Some people's houses are still standing, but even then

:15:39. > :15:43.the fighting has damaged their properties. But some people go back

:15:44. > :15:46.to find their houses have been completely destroyed. For you,

:15:47. > :15:55.working there, what's the biggest challenge? At the moment... I guess

:15:56. > :16:02.one of the biggest challenges is knowing how many people we need to

:16:03. > :16:06.respond to, so we are pre- positioning our stocks in places

:16:07. > :16:09.where we believe people will flee to and supporting families that have

:16:10. > :16:15.already been displaced. A number of people have already been displaced

:16:16. > :16:18.from the Mosul offensive and we are placing people in camps, as well as

:16:19. > :16:22.people who are returning to their villages, with water and blankets

:16:23. > :16:27.and food. Thank you very much for talking to us.

:16:28. > :16:28.You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.

:16:29. > :16:33.People buying a new car are urged by the Transport Secretary to think

:16:34. > :16:36.long and hard before choosing a diesel, as the government looks

:16:37. > :16:42.The White House has barred several major news organisations

:16:43. > :16:45.from a press briefing being given by President Trump's spokesman.

:16:46. > :16:47.The BBC, along with CNN and the New York Times

:16:48. > :17:03.Here's Ben with a look at this morning's weather.

:17:04. > :17:11.Thank you very much. Good morning. We have left the storm behind us but

:17:12. > :17:16.that does not mean it is plain sailing this weekend. A cloudy start

:17:17. > :17:19.for many of us as seen by our weather watch here in Plymouth as

:17:20. > :17:25.well as the cloud, a blustery wind to start the day and we will see

:17:26. > :17:30.some rain at times. Not everywhere that for most of us it is a cloudy

:17:31. > :17:36.start. You can see this pipeline of cloud ploughing in across the

:17:37. > :17:39.country. The British Isles is underneath, I promise.

:17:40. > :17:43.South-westerly is putting mild area in our direction. Nine or 10 degrees

:17:44. > :17:47.at the start of the day across the Channel Islands. A few splashes of

:17:48. > :17:50.rain and quite breezy out there. Across the north of Wales in

:17:51. > :17:55.north-west England the rain turned heavily and through the day we will

:17:56. > :18:01.see a lot of rain here. Particularly in parts of Cumbria could have poor

:18:02. > :18:06.travelling conditions. A windy start, black winged arrows show the

:18:07. > :18:09.wind gusts, gale force gusts likely for exposed coasts and hills. Also

:18:10. > :18:13.to the east of high ground in Scotland in the east of the Pennines

:18:14. > :18:17.as well, some very blustery wind. Our band of rain will edge its way

:18:18. > :18:22.through the day slowly southwards and eastwards so rain all day long

:18:23. > :18:26.for parts of Cumbria and Wales. South-east of that just patchy rain.

:18:27. > :18:30.It will stay mild with things cooling off by the end of the day.

:18:31. > :18:33.Writing up a little bit with some sunshine and a few showers. Into

:18:34. > :18:37.this evening and tonight the rain will continue for a time across

:18:38. > :18:41.central and southern, south-easterly areas. Some of them damned if you

:18:42. > :18:46.are out and about. And then dry weather, perhaps even a touch of

:18:47. > :18:50.frost but our west, here we go again. Another band of rain sliding

:18:51. > :18:55.in. Through tomorrow, yes, more wet weather pushing in through Scotland

:18:56. > :18:59.and Northern Ireland and settling in again over north Wales. South-east

:19:00. > :19:05.of that, a fair amount of cloud with brightness if you are lucky.

:19:06. > :19:09.Blustery wind in many areas and temperatures are 12 degrees in

:19:10. > :19:12.London so mild in the south-east at calling off towards the north-west

:19:13. > :19:18.by the end of the day. That brings us to Monday, a cooler day, a windy

:19:19. > :19:22.day with some blustery showers. Some of them heavy with hail and thunder.

:19:23. > :19:27.Could be wintry over high ground and it looks unsettled throughout the

:19:28. > :19:29.week ahead. Thank you very much. We will celebrate the outdoors now.

:19:30. > :19:30.Beautiful images behind us here. An island which inspired

:19:31. > :19:33.the foundation of the National Trust has been gifted to the conservation

:19:34. > :19:36.charity after more than a century Sitting in the middle

:19:37. > :19:39.of the Lake District, Grasmere Island was left

:19:40. > :19:58.to the Trust by its former owner It is small but beautifully formed.

:19:59. > :20:04.Grasmere Island lies at the heart of the Lake District. Wordsworth is

:20:05. > :20:08.said to with picnic here frequently. But back in 1893 the island was put

:20:09. > :20:17.up for sale and the thought of this idyllic spot coming private property

:20:18. > :20:25.outraged a local clergyman. He had a deep passion that everybody needed

:20:26. > :20:30.access to nature and natural beauty. The journey to Grasmere Island is an

:20:31. > :20:34.idyllic experience in itself. Back in 1893 the new owner made a few

:20:35. > :20:40.additions which did not go down too well with the locals. He planted

:20:41. > :20:45.some shrubbery which caused a lot of indignation. A respectful letter was

:20:46. > :20:51.written asking him to reconsider some of these changes. The reply was

:20:52. > :20:54.blunt. If you are your friends felt so strongly about what happened to

:20:55. > :20:58.the island, you are perfectly competent to turn up to the sale I

:20:59. > :21:02.did and purchase it. That is exactly the issue that the vehicle was

:21:03. > :21:07.concerned about, but it's were being sold off to the highest bidder and

:21:08. > :21:10.they could do whatever they wanted. Absolutely. He was passionate that

:21:11. > :21:15.ordinary people have access to natural beauty in nature. The loss

:21:16. > :21:19.of this island for public use proved the catalyst that inspired him to

:21:20. > :21:23.become a founding father of the National trust. But it is only now

:21:24. > :21:29.that the trust has been able to take control of the island. The last

:21:30. > :21:32.owner has bequeathed it to them. So now this island belongs to the

:21:33. > :21:37.National trust will be overrun with hundreds of people? I don't think

:21:38. > :21:41.so. While we would never stop people from coming, the physical access to

:21:42. > :21:49.the island is difficult, which makes it refuge for nature. And as a

:21:50. > :21:54.charity, that is important to us. This is quite an oak tree, isn't it?

:21:55. > :21:59.It is wonderful. A veteran Oaktree. Heaven knows how old it is. This man

:22:00. > :22:05.spent his final years on the shore of Grasmere. From here he could view

:22:06. > :22:10.the island that helped him create the National trust. Now, at last,

:22:11. > :22:11.the island is part of the portfolio, to be preserved and enjoyed by

:22:12. > :22:18.everyone for ever. If you're heading out

:22:19. > :22:20.on your weekly food shop today, will you be taking any notice

:22:21. > :22:24.of the study out this week which suggests that eating

:22:25. > :22:27.10portions of fruit and vegetables We've long been told that five

:22:28. > :22:35.portions a day can bring significant health benefits, so is doubling your

:22:36. > :22:38.intake really worth it, In a moment we'll get some

:22:39. > :22:42.tips from a dietician, but first here's what

:22:43. > :22:58.some of you think. I hardly ever eat one or even two so

:22:59. > :23:02.I would get nowhere near ten. Fruit was lovely of growing up, as it is

:23:03. > :23:10.now, for the extra fruit and the extra virgin will cost me a lot. I

:23:11. > :23:18.think the fruit and vegetable is not cheap to get so I don't think anyone

:23:19. > :23:26.can get is fruit and veg and it won't be dear. Unita Bauwens. Ten

:23:27. > :23:35.portions... Well, what about, like, meet? Not all about vegetables. I

:23:36. > :23:46.don't eat fruit at all. Would you believe that? I just don't. Do you

:23:47. > :23:47.not like it? I do enjoy it but... Some mixed thoughts there.

:23:48. > :23:52.Dietician Ursula Philpot joins us now.

:23:53. > :24:00.Talking to people there are a variety on views over whether it is

:24:01. > :24:06.attainable. Is it realistic? Is ten portions... It sounds like a lot.

:24:07. > :24:11.That is what it looks like. It is doable you need to be prepared to

:24:12. > :24:15.drop it and prepare it and think of creative ways to get it into your

:24:16. > :24:18.died in the end of the day. It is doable thing for many people, you

:24:19. > :24:23.know, just aiming for five or anything over five is great. You do

:24:24. > :24:28.not need to go to ten. Anything over two is what the research says is

:24:29. > :24:32.beneficial. You more benefits at five, eight portions seems to be the

:24:33. > :24:40.maximum benefit. Anything is better than nothing. And it is all about

:24:41. > :24:43.variety as well, isn't it? What we know is that the more different

:24:44. > :24:47.colours you have on your plate, the better. And mixing it up. Not just

:24:48. > :24:52.fruits, not just vegetables, a whole mix of things is what you are

:24:53. > :24:55.looking for. Again, the study around the ten portions of fruit and

:24:56. > :24:59.vegetable shows that there are particular ones that are more

:25:00. > :25:05.beneficial. The coloured ones, the ones with bright colours, red,

:25:06. > :25:08.orange, yellow, and leafy vegetables, things like spinach and

:25:09. > :25:12.letters. Now, one of the problems here it is that in order for people

:25:13. > :25:16.to access the message and then do something about it, some people are

:25:17. > :25:20.saying that 10,000 too much and it is difficult people think, you know,

:25:21. > :25:24.I cannot do that and that can almost push you to the other direction.

:25:25. > :25:28.That man at the end who said he does not eat fruit at all. There is a

:25:29. > :25:32.danger, isn't there? If you are the anti- too far and it might be better

:25:33. > :25:38.for you, is that pushes people away from eating fruit and veg that is

:25:39. > :25:41.not so good. I agree. We don't want to overwhelm people and make it

:25:42. > :25:46.unrealistic. What I would like to say is that ten is absolutely

:25:47. > :25:50.optimal but go for five day. That is where the health messages been here

:25:51. > :25:56.for a long while and most people are still not getting that. If you could

:25:57. > :25:59.just to five a day you are decreasing your risk of things like

:26:00. > :26:03.coronary heart disease and stroke. If you go higher again the risks

:26:04. > :26:09.come down more substantially. At the high end you have a 30% reduction

:26:10. > :26:14.and at the lower message you have a 10%. More is better is the simple

:26:15. > :26:18.message. You can be creative. Think about things like pickles, dried

:26:19. > :26:23.fruit, even things like pulses and lentils will count. It is just

:26:24. > :26:27.thinking about how to get them in at every meal and snack, really. The

:26:28. > :26:33.danger is, for example, there is a lot of sugar in fruit, isn't there?

:26:34. > :26:41.Potatoes are carbohydrates... We do not count potatoes. But with fruit,

:26:42. > :26:45.again, provided you are not having ten pieces per day, provided it is

:26:46. > :26:48.just three or four pieces a day, there is no evidence that that will

:26:49. > :26:52.cause you any problem with blood sugar or detriment or problems. We

:26:53. > :26:57.know the opposite, actually. People who eat a lot of fruit and vegetable

:26:58. > :27:00.are the healthiest. So I would say to people to not be put off buying

:27:01. > :27:04.through because of the sugar content. A few pieces of fruit a day

:27:05. > :27:07.is a far better snack than many other things out there. It certainly

:27:08. > :27:11.can be expensive, can't it? Especially as it is fresh.

:27:12. > :27:15.Absolutely. That is one of the things that puts people off. It is

:27:16. > :27:19.expensive because you are purchasing things chopped up or prepackaged all

:27:20. > :27:24.you have to put a lot of time and effort into chart thing and

:27:25. > :27:28.preparing it yourself. Again, it I would say to go for seasonal

:27:29. > :27:33.vegetables. They are cheap. But for frozen and ten. They are just as

:27:34. > :27:38.good in terms of nutritional quality. I know you will come back

:27:39. > :27:45.later. How far are you in your five a day so far at this time of the

:27:46. > :27:50.morning? One. I had a banana. OK. We will be back in two hours time to

:27:51. > :27:52.see how far you have gone. We will talk now about words.

:27:53. > :27:55.From "clicktivism" to "squad goals", more than 300 new words have been

:27:56. > :27:57.added to the online version of the Oxford Dictionary,

:27:58. > :28:04.which focuses on the way the English language is currently used.

:28:05. > :28:11.Did you know those words? I know squad goals. That is aspirations you

:28:12. > :28:12.share with your friends. Click to visit, I did not know.

:28:13. > :28:16.Many are social media buzzwords, so how many of us really use them?

:28:17. > :28:44.No. I have never heard of it. No idea. Could you hazard a guess?

:28:45. > :28:54.Something to do with a laptop? We have got Freecycle. Is that one of

:28:55. > :29:03.those bikes that kids have? Is it the free hire of bicycles? It is

:29:04. > :29:14.where you advertise things that locally for people to come and take

:29:15. > :29:25.away. Squad goals. If our training with your friends? No. Do you know

:29:26. > :29:30.what squad goals la? Something to do with football? Something with the

:29:31. > :29:43.whole team? The goals you have with people. With your squad. What you

:29:44. > :29:47.are aiming for. And we already established that Stephanie knows a

:29:48. > :29:54.lot more of those words than I do. Maybe because I'm younger? It is

:29:55. > :29:58.difficult, you cannot keep up-to-date with all the words.

:29:59. > :30:19.Coming up we have the headlines in just a few moments.

:30:20. > :30:22.This is Breakfast, with Steph McGovern and Charlie

:30:23. > :30:26.Coming up before 8am, we'll get the sport and the weather from Ben.

:30:27. > :30:30.First, a summary of this morning's main news.

:30:31. > :30:35.Motorists should think long and hard before buying a diesel car.

:30:36. > :30:37.That's the message from the Transport Secretary Chris

:30:38. > :30:42.He says people should consider a lower-emission vehicle instead.

:30:43. > :30:45.His comments come as the government looks at ways to tackle air

:37:17. > :37:19.Both teams are currently locked on five points after one win and one

:37:20. > :37:26.To look ahead, let's talk to former Scotland captain

:37:27. > :37:32.Andy Nichol, who joins us live from Edinburgh.

:37:33. > :37:39.It has been ten years since Scotland last beat Wales, but could this be

:37:40. > :37:43.the day after that fantastic win against Ireland? It has been a long

:37:44. > :37:47.time coming and in that time there have been some fantastic games of

:37:48. > :37:50.rugby and I expect that to happen again this afternoon. This is a

:37:51. > :37:54.better Scotland site then there has been in ten years, so there are high

:37:55. > :37:58.hopes that they can finally finished that losing streak against Wales.

:37:59. > :38:04.Can Scotland cope without the five key players, including of course the

:38:05. > :38:09.captain? It is a big loss, because he isn't just the captain, he is the

:38:10. > :38:14.goal kicker and leader. It is a good opportunity for the young scrum-half

:38:15. > :38:21.who has done really well for Glasgow this year. The goalkicking is being

:38:22. > :38:27.taken over. So is the captaincy. There are other changes in the front

:38:28. > :38:34.row. John Hardy has been brought in for a bit more physicality in the

:38:35. > :38:38.back row. So the changes, it proves there is still a lot of strength and

:38:39. > :38:43.depth in Scotland and it will be tested this afternoon. What have you

:38:44. > :38:47.made of Wales? If you think about it, apart from poor clearance they

:38:48. > :38:50.could have won their opening games. They were outstanding against

:38:51. > :38:55.England and really raised their game. They always raise their game

:38:56. > :38:59.in the Six Nations. It was full of intensity and passion. The challenge

:39:00. > :39:04.for them is to replicate that away from home, here it is afternoon.

:39:05. > :39:10.They are quality side. Real test match animals. They step up two

:39:11. > :39:16.weeks ago and they will have to do that again this afternoon. It is

:39:17. > :39:20.Charlie here. Steph was just saying to me, I hope you don't mind me

:39:21. > :39:27.saying, you don't normally follow the rugby... Correct. For those who

:39:28. > :39:33.don't normally follow the rugby, set the scene. Give us the passion of

:39:34. > :39:38.that moment. Scotland against Wales. You are trying to draw people into

:39:39. > :39:43.the occasion. It is an amazing occasion, an amazing atmosphere. It

:39:44. > :39:47.is not just the 80 minutes of rugby, the whole weekend. Edinburgh is full

:39:48. > :39:51.of Welsh fans who come up from Wednesday to Friday and go to the

:39:52. > :39:56.same pub every two years when they are peer and it captures the whole

:39:57. > :40:00.city. It is a brilliant occasion and the atmosphere will be rocking right

:40:01. > :40:05.through the afternoon. The tension and passion will be there. When the

:40:06. > :40:09.players come out from the tunnel the noise is huge and then the whistle

:40:10. > :40:14.goes and we will have 80 minutes of fantastic rock the, hopefully.

:40:15. > :40:19.That's me sold. Thank you! -- fantastic rugby.

:40:20. > :40:24.And so much is riding on this one because of the situation in the

:40:25. > :40:27.standings at the moment. Come 4:30pm this afternoon, whichever side has

:40:28. > :40:32.lost, there will be disappointed as they will be out of the

:40:33. > :40:35.championship. But the converse is true as well. Whoever wins is right

:40:36. > :40:39.in the championship and if it is Scotland, obviously I hope it is,

:40:40. > :40:40.they can go to Twickenham in two weeks with some confidence. Thank

:40:41. > :40:42.you, Andy. In the women's tournament,

:40:43. > :40:45.Scotland won their first Six Nations game in six years,

:40:46. > :40:50.with a 15-14 win over Wales. It's the first time they have

:40:51. > :40:53.beaten the Welsh in 30 meetings and they had

:40:54. > :40:56.to do it the hard way, Sarah Law with the vital penalty,

:40:57. > :41:05.to seal the victory by a point. That was at the the Broadwood

:41:06. > :41:08.stadium, just north of Glasgow. And this lunchtime sees the first

:41:09. > :41:11.transatlantic sports team take Toronto Wolfpack will compete

:41:12. > :41:14.in domestic English rugby They are in Yorkshire to face Siddal

:41:15. > :41:19.in the Challenge Cup. Wolfpack will compete in the third

:41:20. > :41:23.tier of the sport this season and their aim is to become

:41:24. > :41:25.a Super League side You can watch their first game

:41:26. > :41:32.on the BBC Sport website at 1pm. It was a busy night in super league

:41:33. > :41:36.last night, with five games. Warrington were hoping for another

:41:37. > :41:38.win after their victory over the Brisbane Broncos

:41:39. > :41:41.in the World Club Series, but they were left red

:41:42. > :41:43.faced by Castleford, whose man of the match,

:41:44. > :41:45.Zak Hardaker, And they never looked back

:41:46. > :41:49.after the 30-22 win. Elsewhere, world champions Wigan

:41:50. > :41:53.avoided a similar slump after their World

:41:54. > :41:55.Club Series success. They were 14 points down

:41:56. > :41:58.at one stage in the second half against Widnes,

:41:59. > :42:02.but Wigan won 28-26 in the end. Leeds also left it

:42:03. > :42:04.late to beat Salford, and there were also

:42:05. > :42:16.wins for Huddersfield The promoted side are back in the

:42:17. > :42:17.Super League. They've got to win the ball as well.

:42:18. > :42:19.Britain's Mark Cavendish has retained the overall lead,

:42:20. > :42:22.after the second stage of the Tour of Abu Dhabi.

:42:23. > :42:25.Australian Caleb Ewan thought he'd won the stage

:42:26. > :42:27.and raised his arms a little early in celebration,

:42:28. > :42:30.before realising he'd been pipped at the line by Germany's

:42:31. > :42:36.Cavendish came in third, to keep hold of the overall

:42:51. > :42:52.Olympic champion Yarnold has had an indifferent season,

:42:53. > :42:57.She failed to improve on fourth place in her second run yesterday

:42:58. > :42:59.before the heat was cancelled, due to heavy snow.

:43:37. > :43:41.awareness. They say they haven't had any falls since they've been doing

:43:42. > :43:44.it. What about you? I enjoyed the togetherness of it. And I haven't

:44:04. > :44:07.by President Trump's spokesman. The BBC, along with CNN

:44:08. > :44:24.and the New York Times, I think we should have a look at the

:44:25. > :44:31.weekend weather forecast. It has been quite a week, and it seems to

:44:32. > :44:37.have calmed down and beat. We won't see anything like Storm

:44:38. > :44:40.Doris this weekend. But don't let that make you think it is plain

:44:41. > :44:45.sailing, because there's still quite a lot going on. This picture painted

:44:46. > :44:48.the scene beautifully. This is one for from our Weather Watcher in

:44:49. > :44:56.Derbyshire. A pretty strong breeze. Blustery. Not as strong as the wind

:44:57. > :45:00.was during Storm Doris, but still a blustery south-westerly wind and

:45:01. > :45:03.with that we have this cloud pushing in across the country. That will

:45:04. > :45:08.bring outbreaks of rain at times. Let's take a closer look. 9am,

:45:14. > :45:16.pretty cloudy for many and some glimmers of brightness in Kent and

:45:27. > :45:29.Cumbria, we will see a lot of rain, which will give poor travelling

:47:06. > :47:23.But first as Storm Doris battered many parts of the UK on Thursday it

:47:24. > :47:26.could mean only one thing for BBC reporters.

:47:27. > :47:34.We saw you a little earlier unable to stand up.

:47:35. > :47:44.Actually we have just watched this storm unfold through the morning

:47:47. > :47:50.It is so strong at the moment I cannot look into it

:47:58. > :48:13.I am sure the BBC will say we do not put our reporters into danger.

:48:14. > :48:15.Not everyone, however, may be as responsible.

:48:16. > :48:25.They may think oh, let's go and film at the seafront.

:48:26. > :48:28.and they get blown over and hurt even worse -

:48:29. > :48:30.hurt or killed and will the BBC take responsibility?

:48:31. > :48:33.There is no need to have that woman standing in that position,

:50:22. > :50:24.And not just for the world but for the people of the country,

:51:05. > :51:13.Except to say it was a very difficult time, and we are a family.

:51:44. > :51:52.And it's good that you explained that this is part of a longer

:51:53. > :51:54.documentary, because one of the important things to bear

:51:55. > :51:58.in mind about this piece is that we are going to be producing

:51:59. > :52:01.a 23 minute documentary, which will run on the BBC

:52:02. > :52:04.World News Channel and on the News Channel here in the UK and indeed

:52:05. > :52:10.So what we did was gather quite a lot of material and we cut down

:52:11. > :52:15.So that the audiences who watch those main bulletins on BBC One

:52:16. > :52:18.would see the news piece if they didn't see the longer documentary.

:52:19. > :52:21.Just to be clear, getting that interview with Angelina Jolie,

:52:22. > :52:27.No, there weren't, we had done some work with her last year,

:52:28. > :52:31.I think she trusts the BBC to deal with the material in the film

:52:32. > :52:43.We were able to agree with her that we would go and get

:52:44. > :52:46.some access to the film and its premiere which we felt

:52:47. > :52:49.would be of value to the audiences and would be of interest

:52:50. > :52:52.to the audiences and what we have seen from the statistics

:52:53. > :52:54.and the viewing figures and the online figures

:52:55. > :52:57.What did you object to about this item?

:52:58. > :53:05.This actually was a shameless piece of Hollywood PR.

:53:06. > :53:09.It consisted of puff about the film, it was a long film of Pol Pot

:53:10. > :53:13.which is 40 or 50 years old, and then the most ludicrous

:53:14. > :53:15.so-called exclusive interview, which reminded me of a levitation

:53:16. > :53:20.scene from Absolutely Fabulous in which he said absolutely nothing.

:53:21. > :53:26.But this was trailed across the BBC, endlessly.

:53:27. > :53:30.It was headlined, it was the second or third most important in the world

:53:31. > :53:32.according to the running order of the BBC News.

:53:33. > :53:36.Frankly, you could hardly have made more fuss if it was the Second

:53:37. > :53:44.A lot of people would say that it would not have been done

:53:45. > :53:51.I think her involvement in the film is certainly part of the news story.

:53:52. > :53:54.Certainly films have been made about the genocide but one

:53:55. > :53:57.of the important things about this film is that her involvement meant

:53:58. > :54:00.that a major international personality was investing the time

:54:01. > :54:03.and the effort to make a Cambodian language film with Cambodian actors,

:54:04. > :54:06.and for the first time the whole machinery of the Cambodian

:54:07. > :54:09.government, including the King, who attended the premiere was very

:54:10. > :54:13.publicly being associated with it and we felt because we don't get

:54:14. > :54:17.to go to Cambodia very often, that actually that told us something

:54:18. > :54:21.editorially interesting about how the country's coming to terms

:54:22. > :54:25.Of course her presence was part of the story.

:54:26. > :54:33.But the BBC always makes material across a wide range

:54:34. > :54:41.I think what people ought to see is authoritative

:54:42. > :54:45.Angelina Jolie may well be that, but we can all see from America,

:54:46. > :54:50.the problem with pandering in the way that you did with some

:54:51. > :54:52.of the most it's equally as questioning I have seen

:54:53. > :55:00.And celebrity views are worth no more than yours or mine frankly.

:55:01. > :55:04.What did you make of the fact that the headline of the story

:55:05. > :55:08.She didn't say anything about it, did she?

:55:09. > :55:10.By the way, that is none of our business.

:55:11. > :55:13.We do know, and only a fool would think otherwise,

:55:14. > :55:15.that as and when she makes her announcement about that,

:55:16. > :55:18.it will be done through the Hollywood PR machine and anyone

:55:19. > :55:21.who thinks she's going to answer a question on the BBC

:55:22. > :55:30.People watching say that if this was about the film crews

:55:31. > :55:33.and the Khmer Rouge, why was the headline on News at Ten

:55:34. > :55:40.If you look at how we presented the material right across the BBC

:55:41. > :55:43.you will see clearly that we presented the story

:55:44. > :55:47.But in terms of the News at Ten, what people were watching?

:55:48. > :55:51.But if you look at the package, you have got a 3.5 minute piece,

:55:52. > :55:54.of which the 45 seconds is what happened in her family.

:55:55. > :55:57.We understand that people have a broad range of interest

:55:58. > :56:01.about this story and ways of getting into this story and we think we have

:56:02. > :56:05.presented this material responsibly and I'm very sorry that Mike is not

:56:06. > :56:08.happy with it, but I would encourage him to watch the long for material

:56:09. > :56:12.that we produced as part of this trip because when you have seen

:56:13. > :56:16.that it is part of a fairer basis of judging the totality.

:56:17. > :56:19.You are emphasising that, the BBC sold the whole exclusive

:56:20. > :56:24.on the fact that you have got this celebrity angle,

:56:25. > :56:27.on Angelina Jolie and her marriage break-up and the comment on it -

:56:28. > :56:32.That's what seems very odd to viewers like Mike.

:56:33. > :56:35.I don't think that is fair, if you look right across the BBC

:56:36. > :56:37.News website, and the international channels and throughout

:56:38. > :56:45.its coverage, I think that we have been very clear about headlining

:56:46. > :56:47.the film, the issues about Cambodia and the unusual access.

:56:48. > :56:49.The unusual parts of the Cambodian story.

:56:50. > :56:52.I think we have handled it responsibly but we are not

:56:53. > :56:55.going to cover up the fact that there was some interest

:56:56. > :56:59.for the public in what she had to say about this enormous

:57:00. > :57:02.Are you satisfied with what you have heard?

:57:03. > :57:06.No, and the fact of the matter is that people don't have the time

:57:07. > :57:08.and inclination to watch all of the material -

:57:09. > :57:11.the fact of the matter was that it was headlined

:57:12. > :57:14.across the BBC as an exclusive interview about her marriage

:57:15. > :57:17.As if anybody was interested in that, people are clearly,

:57:18. > :57:20.but she said absolutely nothing about it, and frankly I thought

:57:21. > :57:27.We will have to leave it there, thank you very much.

:57:28. > :57:30.Finally, Steve Hewlett died on Monday, he was an occasional

:57:31. > :57:32.presenter and very welcome guest on this programme.

:57:33. > :57:36.He had a long and varied programme with production and executive roles

:57:37. > :57:39.on the BBC and Channel 4 and ITV, he was editor of Panorama

:57:40. > :57:53.at the time of its famous interview with Princess Diana in 1995

:57:54. > :57:56.and later he became a sought-after media commentator both on camera

:57:57. > :57:59.and in print and he presented Radio 4's media show

:58:00. > :58:03.Over the past few months, he described the experience

:58:04. > :58:06.of having cancer in a moving series of radio interviews.

:58:07. > :58:08.Steve will be much missed by family, friends and colleagues

:58:09. > :58:11.and by Newswatch viewers such as Paul Nelson who wrote

:58:12. > :58:29.Thank you for all of your comments this week.

:58:30. > :58:32.If you want to share your opinions on BBC News current affairs,

:58:33. > :00:04.Hello, this is Breakfast with Steph McGovern and Charlie Stayt.

:00:05. > :00:07.People buying a new car are told by the Transport Secretary to think

:00:08. > :00:10.long and hard before choosing a diesel amid growing concern

:00:11. > :00:12.Chris Grayling said drivers should consider vehicles

:00:13. > :00:30.Good morning, it's Saturday 25th February.

:00:31. > :00:36.Former Labour Foreign Secretary David Miliband says the party

:00:37. > :00:39.is further from power than at any point in the last 50 years

:00:59. > :01:02.fans the dream he hoped would last forever has died.

:01:03. > :01:06.Also this morning we take a trip to the Lake District Island that

:01:07. > :01:12.inspired the foundation of the National Trust.

:01:13. > :01:25.Good morning. The weather does not particularly look inspiring this

:01:26. > :01:27.weekend. There will be some rain at times and it will be blustery as

:01:28. > :01:30.well. All the details in 15 minutes. Motorists should think

:01:31. > :01:36.long and hard before buying a diesel car,

:01:37. > :01:39.that's the message from the He's urging drivers to consider

:01:40. > :01:42.a less-polluting vehicle instead. four in ten cars on Britain's

:01:43. > :01:44.roads are diesel. Under Labour they had been billed

:01:45. > :01:47.as the clean alternative to petrol Now they're said to be one

:01:48. > :01:53.of the reasons for increasing Let's get more on this

:01:54. > :02:06.with our correspondent Nick Quraishi Chris Grayling is using these

:02:07. > :02:13.comments in the Daily Mail to distance himself from what Labour

:02:14. > :02:20.did when it was in power. In 2001, Gordon Brown as Chancellor cut the

:02:21. > :02:25.tax on low-sulphur fuel. That meant that the annual diesel car

:02:26. > :02:29.registrations more than doubled to 8 million a year. There are 12 million

:02:30. > :02:39.diesel cars on our road and with that comes pollution. Exposure to

:02:40. > :02:44.nitrogen dioxide kills some 2000 people a year in the UK. Chris

:02:45. > :02:49.Grayling is not flatly saying do not go out and buy diesel, he is

:02:50. > :02:55.thinking about the alternatives. The government line is it is committed

:02:56. > :02:59.to reducing air pollution and it has invested more than ?2 billion in the

:03:00. > :03:04.programme since 2011 and more plans will come out later this year. One

:03:05. > :03:10.of the plans is for a scrappage scheme so drivers will get paid for

:03:11. > :03:16.getting rid of diesel in favour of something less polluted. We know the

:03:17. > :03:19.Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, is to introduce a toxicity charge. Drivers

:03:20. > :03:25.of the most polluting diesel cars will have to pay ?10 a day to enter

:03:26. > :03:29.the city from October, a move no doubt widely looked at by other

:03:30. > :03:31.authorities around the country. Thank you.

:03:32. > :03:34.The former Labour Foreign Secretary, David Miliband, has said

:03:35. > :03:38.that the party is further from power than it has been at any time

:03:39. > :03:42.In an interview with The Times newspaper Mr Miliband said

:03:43. > :03:44.he was deeply concerned about Labour's future under

:03:45. > :03:46.Jeremy Corbyn after the party lost the Copeland by-election

:03:47. > :03:50.Here's our political correspondent Chris Mason.

:03:51. > :03:53.Jeremy Corbyn went to Stoke yesterday to look

:03:54. > :04:00.His man had won the by-election there, activists were delighted,

:04:01. > :04:04.but Labour's vote slid in Stoke and the party suffered a Cumbrian

:04:05. > :04:11.humbling 140 miles north in Copeland as the Conservatives triumphed.

:04:12. > :04:15.Enter from New York the man people in the Labour Party see as the best

:04:16. > :04:19.leader they never had, David Miliband.

:04:20. > :04:22.He now runs a charity, the International Rescue Committee,

:04:23. > :04:25.and this is not the first time he has been a public doom monger

:04:26. > :04:31.Labour, he told The Times, had now lost support among

:04:32. > :04:36."I am obviously deeply concerned that Labour is further from power

:04:37. > :04:42.that at any stage in my lifetime," he told the newspaper.

:04:43. > :04:46.But those loyal to the leaders say it is not all Jeremy

:04:47. > :04:52.I would actually like to talk about issues and what it is that

:04:53. > :04:54.makes a difference to people's lives and what makes a difference

:04:55. > :04:57.to people's lives is having the sort of government that will address

:04:58. > :05:01.the concerns of people that have some solutions.

:05:02. > :05:03.This government does not and we need to make clear

:05:04. > :05:06.that we are the alternative and we have alternative

:05:07. > :05:13.The fault cannot be laid at the door of one individual.

:05:14. > :05:17.But plenty of other Labour MPs see what has happened as evidence

:05:18. > :05:21.of what they have always feared with Jeremy Corbyn, a painful drift

:05:22. > :05:27.Don't expect them to try to get rid of Mr Corbyn now, though,

:05:28. > :05:30.because they know what happened when they tried that last time.

:05:31. > :05:37.Let's speak to our political correspondent, Matt Cole, who's

:05:38. > :05:49.Good morning. It is interesting. The former Labour Foreign Secretary

:05:50. > :05:55.David Miliband giving his thoughts on Jeremy Corbyn. Will he care? One

:05:56. > :05:59.suspects not too much. This is not the first time that David Miliband

:06:00. > :06:04.from a position of no longer being involved in UK politics shares his

:06:05. > :06:09.thoughts. He went to work in New York for a charity after losing the

:06:10. > :06:13.Labour leadership election to his brother, Ed Miliband, in 2010. He

:06:14. > :06:17.has continued to contribute his thoughts. He was once policy chief

:06:18. > :06:22.for Tony Blair, which indicates the side of the party he comes from,

:06:23. > :06:27.very much the opposite of Jeremy Corbyn. But he does feel that this

:06:28. > :06:32.is worse than the 1980s and the doldrums Labour were in then. He

:06:33. > :06:38.thinks the situation needs some serious thought. He says Jeremy

:06:39. > :06:43.Corbyn does accept that the Copeland by-election was not good, but it did

:06:44. > :06:48.hold of UK's challenge in Stoke Central on the same night. People

:06:49. > :06:51.have asked since the Copeland result of Jeremy Corbyn, have you thought

:06:52. > :06:53.about quitting? His simple answer was no.

:06:54. > :06:56.Several news organisations, including the BBC, have been barred

:06:57. > :06:58.from entering a press briefing at the White House.

:06:59. > :07:01.President Trump's spokesman said the administration would "push back"

:07:02. > :07:03.against what it sees as false reporting.

:07:04. > :07:07.Here's our Washington Correspondent, Laura Bicker.

:07:08. > :07:11.President Trump has stepped up his battle with the media.

:07:12. > :07:13.A few days ago I called the fake news the enemy

:07:14. > :07:24.Because they have no sources, they just make 'em up

:07:25. > :07:30.He is angry at recent reports claiming his

:07:31. > :07:33.campaign aides had contacts with Russian intelligence officials.

:07:34. > :07:35.The New York Times used anonymous sources for their story.

:07:36. > :07:42.They shouldn't be allowed to use sources unless they

:07:43. > :07:50.This latest tirade during a speech to a Conservative conference was 15

:07:51. > :07:53.minutes long and just a few hours later things changed

:07:54. > :08:00.This is the usual briefing by the White House Press Secretary,

:08:01. > :08:05.Instead a member of selected media groups were invited

:08:06. > :08:10.into Sean Spicer's office and others were barred, including the BBC.

:08:11. > :08:16.This ban saying CNN and others have been blocked from media briefings,

:08:17. > :08:19.are CNN and the New York Times not in here right now because you are

:08:20. > :08:25.Because we had a pool and we expanded it and we added some

:08:26. > :08:31.It is my decision to expand the pool.

:08:32. > :08:33.The President said, "We are going to do something

:08:34. > :08:36.about it," in reference to the stories that he says

:08:37. > :08:38.are false by the New York Times and CNN and others.

:08:39. > :08:43.We are going to aggressively push back.

:08:44. > :08:47.We are not just going to sit back and let false narratives,

:08:48. > :08:49.false stories, inaccurate facts, get out there.

:08:50. > :08:52.The White House Correspondents' Association says it is protesting

:08:53. > :08:54.strongly and is encouraging those who were allowed

:08:55. > :08:59.The BBC is also asking for clarification as

:09:00. > :09:08.Police have defended the decision to fire a taser

:09:09. > :09:11.at an unarmed blind man in Greater Manchester on Thursday.

:09:12. > :09:13.Officers at Levenshulme train station mistook

:09:14. > :09:19.The 43-year-old man was unhurt and the police

:09:20. > :09:25.HSBC has promised to review the way it collects information

:09:26. > :09:28.from customers after the BBC revealed that a number of clients

:09:29. > :09:31.had their accounts closed with little or no warning.

:09:32. > :09:34.Some customers say the bank is being over-zealous

:09:35. > :09:37.with the information it demands from them and how it treats those

:09:38. > :09:43.The bank's been carrying out more stringent checks in recent years

:09:44. > :09:51.The band Coldplay have denied that they've scheduled concerts in Israel

:09:52. > :09:56.They've taken to social media to say that they are just visiting

:10:36. > :10:46.the enclosure all to the delight of the viewing public.

:10:47. > :10:55.Might well have a look at the spot and we will also have the weather

:10:56. > :10:58.When Kim Jong-nam was murdered at Kuala Lumpur airport,

:10:59. > :11:01.it was a very public act of violence, captured on CCTV

:11:02. > :11:04.Police say the half brother of the North Korean leader

:11:05. > :11:07.was killed by a highly toxic nerve agent known as VX,

:11:08. > :11:12.VX is colourless and odourless and has the feel of engine oil.

:11:13. > :11:15.It is so deadly it's classified by the United Nations as a weapon

:11:16. > :11:18.It can kill someone with just one drop.

:11:19. > :11:20.Symptoms include coughing, shortness of breathe,

:11:21. > :11:29.South Korea say the North started producing chemical weapons

:11:30. > :11:41.in the 1980s and now have up to 5,000 tonnes in stock.

:11:42. > :11:43.Let's speak to Jennifer Cole an International Defence expert

:11:44. > :11:45.from the security think-tank the Royal United Services Institute,

:11:46. > :11:58.We are learning a little bit more about VX. Tell us how dangerous it

:11:59. > :12:04.is. As you have said, it is one of the most toxic nerve agents ever

:12:05. > :12:08.developed. It can kill in minute quantities. I have seen overnight

:12:09. > :12:12.there have been questioned about the scientific community about how

:12:13. > :12:17.likely this could have been VX. It has not yet been confirmed by an

:12:18. > :12:22.international laboratory. The delivery of it is starting to raise

:12:23. > :12:26.concerns, how it could not have contaminated for instances the

:12:27. > :12:34.ambulance people who treated him. We have to be cautious about being sure

:12:35. > :12:38.that it is the X. But if it is, it shows North Korea stepping over a

:12:39. > :12:44.line if they are indeed behind the attack, and being prepared to use

:12:45. > :12:48.chemical weapons openly. That is the interesting thing, if it is VX, the

:12:49. > :12:52.fact they have chosen to reveal to the world that they have it and they

:12:53. > :13:00.are prepared to use it is one of the interesting aspects of this story.

:13:01. > :13:04.If it is indeed the X and if the two women who were seen in the airport

:13:05. > :13:08.at that time doing it, a lot of people are asking how they would not

:13:09. > :13:14.have been contaminated, or other people in the surrounding area were

:13:15. > :13:20.not. That is one of the things that casts doubt on whether this is

:13:21. > :13:27.really the X. It could be a binary version of VX and was combined into

:13:28. > :13:40.toxic agents before they arrived at the scene. The question I would have

:13:41. > :13:45.with that is the moment the second woman applies it. It is very hard to

:13:46. > :13:51.see how she herself would not have been contaminated. They washed their

:13:52. > :13:59.hands very quickly, they could potentially have been given anti-Der

:14:00. > :14:05.Spiegel -- anti-dotes beforehand. But it seems very odd that they were

:14:06. > :14:09.not affected, and the paramedics. It is usually very fast acting. The

:14:10. > :14:15.fact he was able to find airport staff and it took awhile to have an

:14:16. > :14:22.impact. It casts doubt on whether it could have been VX. So, questions

:14:23. > :14:27.remain. If we assume for the time being it is VX, questions emerge

:14:28. > :14:34.about where it has come from. What can you tell us about that? Again it

:14:35. > :14:40.is difficult to manufacture it outside of a state programme. It is

:14:41. > :14:45.not entirely impossible. For instance, a cult that was

:14:46. > :14:51.responsible for the sarin gas attacks on the Tokyo underground

:14:52. > :14:58.manufactured and used VX. It does involve a lot of chemical classic

:14:59. > :15:01.knowledge. It is not as easy as pulling a recipe off the Internet

:15:45. > :15:47.and understanding, not only access to fairly sophisticated

:15:48. > :15:54.manufacturing facilities, but who know how to handle that material.

:15:55. > :15:57.That is a key point. Handling that material safety without damaging

:15:58. > :16:03.yourself and the people around you is probably the most complex part of

:16:04. > :16:08.this operation and they were clearly very skilled in that. I think that

:16:09. > :16:11.is where the questions need to be asked. Professor, thank you very

:16:35. > :16:41.organisations from a press briefing given by a White House press

:16:42. > :16:43.spokesman. The CNN, the New York Times and the BBC were among those

:16:44. > :16:54.Let's have a look at what is happening with the weather.

:16:55. > :16:58.That is a nice picture. I have managed to find some colour this

:16:59. > :17:04.morning, but most of it is because of the flowers that have come out

:17:05. > :17:08.because of how mild it has been. It is a pretty cloudy start today in

:17:09. > :17:16.many areas, including Cambridge where this picture came from. We had

:17:17. > :17:22.some blustery winds, not on the scale of Doris, and windy at times.

:17:23. > :17:28.This is what is producing rain for some of us and with it a mile and

:17:29. > :17:32.strong south-westerly wind. Northern Ireland and Scotland have a soggy

:17:33. > :17:36.start to the day here and that affects parts of north-west England

:17:37. > :17:44.and Wales. Poor travelling conditions. With the rain are some

:17:45. > :17:48.strong and gusty winds. Things will improve in Northern Ireland and

:17:49. > :17:55.Scotland, but the rain will be settling in to the south-west of

:17:56. > :18:00.England. A few spits and spots of rain here, temperatures 10 degrees

:18:01. > :18:05.in London. A lot of rain falling in Wales over the hills and into

:18:06. > :18:09.north-west England and into Cumbria. But for Northern Ireland and

:18:10. > :18:12.Scotland things will improve. Starting to turn a little cooler

:18:13. > :18:18.from the West. 7 degrees in Stornoway. But it should be dry at

:18:19. > :18:22.Murrayfield for Scotland versus Wales in the six Nations this

:18:23. > :18:31.afternoon. The rain could hang around in Dublin for a time. If you

:18:32. > :18:37.are heading out and about, it could be an the downside. In the early

:18:38. > :18:41.hours it should be dry. Dry for a time in Scotland and Northern

:18:42. > :18:46.Ireland, but here we go again. Another band of rain swinging in.

:18:47. > :18:52.After a soggy Saturday for some, it is a soggy Sunday again. This time

:18:53. > :18:56.the rain will hang around for most of the day. Not as much rain in the

:18:57. > :19:02.South East, but a blustery wind for many of us and it turns cooler up

:19:03. > :19:08.towards the North West, but in the South East we will get up to 12

:19:09. > :19:09.degrees. Not bad temperatures, so it will be

:19:10. > :19:21.a bit soggy. How is enjoying its moment in the

:19:22. > :19:25.spotlight as the UK City of Culture, but in the 17th century it was

:19:26. > :19:29.enjoying attention for a very different reason. The Royal

:19:30. > :19:32.Shakespeare Company is in the city to commemorate the story in a new

:19:33. > :19:45.play featuring a number of household names. We have been behind the

:19:46. > :19:52.scenes. It is a comedy about how, pen from a writer from Hull, so

:19:53. > :19:57.where else to stage a new play about the city? Who will make the first

:19:58. > :20:00.advance, the civil War starts now. Since January the cast of the

:20:01. > :20:06.hypocrite have been rehearsing in a disused church in Hull, including

:20:07. > :20:10.the stars Caroline Quentin and Mark Addy. For people who do not know, it

:20:11. > :20:15.is about the beginning of the Civil War which happened in Hull. Beverley

:20:16. > :20:21.gate is the centre point of that moment. The play is frantic, funny

:20:22. > :20:26.and they'll is a lot of us in it. For those of us who come from a time

:20:27. > :20:30.when it was too expensive to have a lot of people on stage, it is really

:20:31. > :20:37.exciting to be on stage with that many folk. The play is by Hull born

:20:38. > :20:42.writer Richard Bean who spent more than two years researching the real

:20:43. > :20:49.life of his lead character. The play focuses on 1642 when Sir John shut

:20:50. > :20:54.the city gates on the King and sparked the start of the Civil War.

:20:55. > :20:58.When I started reading the original papers it is like reading a French

:20:59. > :21:04.farce, that final thing where the governor of the town is running

:21:05. > :21:10.around and being chased. I am not going to say Benny Hill. I could see

:21:11. > :21:15.it in your eyes. It has taken the team a whole week to build the site

:21:16. > :21:20.ready for the show. It is now two days until opening night and

:21:21. > :21:23.everyone is heading through to the stage for technical rehearsals. It

:21:24. > :21:27.is the last chance for everyone in the team to practice the trickiest

:21:28. > :21:31.bits of the play until they are perfect. As the lead actor Mark Addy

:21:32. > :21:36.is in the most of the three hours of the show, so rehearsals have been

:21:37. > :21:42.gruelling. Withhold being the City of Culture, to be involved in one of

:21:43. > :21:46.the big opening shows of that year is terrific. I do sometimes think I

:21:47. > :21:55.too for this? But we are getting there and it is one of those gifts

:21:56. > :21:59.of a show. The play is the fastest selling show in Hull truck Theatre's

:22:00. > :22:05.history and probably the most eagerly awaited as well. It looks

:22:06. > :22:09.good. You're watching

:22:10. > :22:12.Breakfast from BBC News. Time now for a look

:22:13. > :22:15.at the newspapers. Broadcaster Janice Long is here

:22:42. > :22:42.he would encourage people to think carefully about which cars they

:22:43. > :22:46.should buy. The Times, David Miliband,

:23:03. > :23:27.company Whirlpool accused Where are you starting? A story

:23:28. > :23:35.about exports. I love the idea that we now export more gin than beef,

:23:36. > :23:38.450 in beef and ?500 million with gin and going to so many countries

:23:39. > :23:46.around the world. It does not surprise me. If you go into a

:23:47. > :23:50.supermarket, there are rows and rows of gin. Small distilleries

:23:51. > :23:55.absolutely over the place and there are gin palaces and gin parlours

:23:56. > :24:00.setting up, so gin has become the most popular thing for us to export.

:24:01. > :24:06.It is a success story. People's habits have changed and it was once

:24:07. > :24:11.deemed an old-fashioned drink and it is now very trendy and the world is

:24:12. > :24:19.picking up on our drink. 41 million bottles sold in the UK. You have

:24:20. > :24:25.picked up a story about blackbirds. Is this a story about depression? It

:24:26. > :24:31.is about mental health and stress. It is the amount of birds that they

:24:32. > :24:38.actually see. It is a study from Queensland University. And the

:24:39. > :24:42.British trust for ornithologists. They had monitored people and if

:24:43. > :24:48.they see a lot of birds, their stress levels are reduced. Does that

:24:49. > :24:53.mean lots of different birds or a flock of birds? A flock of birds, or

:24:54. > :24:58.it could be a blackbird or a blue tit. But as long as they see several

:24:59. > :25:05.birds. This can be in the city or the countryside, it does not matter.

:25:06. > :25:11.I wonder why? It must be therapeutic. We all look at birds.

:25:12. > :25:16.Equally well there are quite a lot of people who are fazed by them.

:25:17. > :25:23.Some people are scared. I know someone who sees a pigeon and they

:25:24. > :25:28.run a mile. I think animals in general, pets and things like that,

:25:29. > :25:33.they can keep you sane. Did you see the baby polar bear picture earlier

:25:34. > :25:41.on? That was very cute. That would have a similar effect. What about

:25:42. > :25:48.dancing one? No. The dancing polar bear! You are taking us to a

:25:49. > :25:56.different place. This is a great story about girls

:25:57. > :26:01.entering this test. I think we have all been intrigued in the past I

:26:02. > :26:06.people like Alan Turing and Jane Clark working out at Bletchley. Now

:26:07. > :26:14.this is a competition encouraging girls to enter and they can work out

:26:15. > :26:19.codes. We are under cyber attack now more than ever, 60 day possibly, and

:26:20. > :26:27.so they need more people to get involved in this. Girls are coming

:26:28. > :26:35.forward and it is such a good thing. They have had 3500 entries. The

:26:36. > :26:40.thinking is that girls have stayed away from those subjects.

:26:41. > :26:48.That is why this is exciting because they have had an incredible number

:26:49. > :26:52.of young people applying. Now the women are certainly keen on getting

:26:53. > :27:03.involved. They had them working in Bletchley before. Now we can talk to

:27:04. > :27:09.our gadgets, ring this number, do this, do that. And kids, if their

:27:10. > :27:15.parents are doing it incorrectly, they are becoming very impolite and

:27:16. > :27:21.losing the social skills. So they are ordering them, bossy. They are

:27:22. > :27:26.turning into spoiled brats. Somebody from the brats has said it is the

:27:27. > :27:30.way the parents talk that will influence children. So if parents do

:27:31. > :27:37.it properly, this will not happen. I cannot read what one parent said

:27:38. > :27:46.about his kid in here or I will be taken off. I said thank you to a

:27:47. > :27:52.cash machine by accident! Those boys activated robots, I've a

:27:53. > :27:59.polite? Who? The robots who do the speaking back to you. Yes, they are

:28:00. > :28:03.all right. But children think that they can demand, there is no please

:28:04. > :28:11.and thank you, they are losing their manners. They are losing their

:28:12. > :28:21.social skills. Thank you very much. You will be coming back in an hour.

:34:34. > :34:37.Maybe they needed a change, and maybe they will stay up this season

:34:38. > :34:44.and look back and set was the right thing to do. At the it feels very

:34:45. > :34:47.raw and fresh. A man who has been so warmly invited, and liked in this

:34:48. > :34:52.country, and some of the things he said have shown that he is not the

:34:53. > :34:55.normal football manager. That statement was beautifully written,

:34:56. > :34:59.wonderfully put an very much in his own words. I think he felt it was a

:35:00. > :35:03.love story and it ended far too soon. We will talk about that, and

:35:04. > :35:07.we will hear from former captain Matt Elliott, giving us an insight

:35:08. > :35:11.into the dressing room. We will reflect on where now for him, and

:35:12. > :35:16.where now for the club, and where do they go forward from here? We will

:35:17. > :35:20.look ahead to the League Cup final, Southampton against Manchester

:35:21. > :35:28.United. We have got Neil Warnock on the show, who has had 17 jobs over

:35:36. > :35:40.about the struggle of Crystal Palace, who take on Middlesbrough

:35:41. > :35:44.this weekend. Also on the England job. He was only the England manager

:35:45. > :35:47.for one game, famously. Did he come back to early, is one question put

:35:48. > :35:51.to him? There have been one or two muted

:35:52. > :35:55.rumours that I came back too early, that is far from the truth

:35:56. > :35:57.it is absolute rubbish. I did not have to come back, apart

:35:58. > :36:01.from that I wanted to come back. You never forget it, but you put it

:36:02. > :36:04.to the back of your mind. You do the job you are paid to do,

:36:05. > :36:07.the job of Crystal Palace. Our big problem is our own record,

:36:08. > :36:13.and I think that trying to help the lads overcome their fears

:36:14. > :36:17.at home, which is what they are, because we have only taken seven

:36:18. > :36:20.points at home this season, and I think the fans and players

:38:53. > :38:58.always huge pressure to win. People tell me that,

:38:59. > :39:16.it's half in jest. I'm a Scottish person and this part

:39:17. > :39:24.of Wales is full of rugby. I think their winning

:39:25. > :39:26.is everything for them. It is a different Scottish

:39:29. > :39:32.focused on the squad that we have at the minute,

:42:21. > :42:24.88-year-old, enjoying a new lease of a new lease of life,

:42:25. > :42:36.thanks to the sport of free running. More on that at 9:30am. Hopefully by

:42:37. > :42:39.then you will have worked out the size of a daughters.

:42:40. > :42:50.Slightly annoyingly, you were almost exactly right.

:42:51. > :42:56.The average tortoise is 17 inches, so you were right. They can weigh up

:42:57. > :43:04.to ten kilos as well. Most people would note the size of a tortoise,

:43:05. > :43:08.wouldn't they? But this is the most endangered tortoise in the world. 17

:43:09. > :43:12.inches is the average. I am so glad we have resolved this

:43:13. > :43:16.because now everyone can get on with their weekend.

:43:17. > :43:21.It could turn up in a pub quiz tonight. It could.

:43:22. > :43:25.It'll soon be time to raid the children's piggy banks and check

:43:26. > :43:29.down the back of the sofa, because the ?1 coin

:43:30. > :43:34.is having its much-publicised first makeover in more than 30 years.

:43:35. > :43:37.The new 12-sided coin will be in our pockets by the end of March.

:43:38. > :43:39.It comes with high-tech features to beat the forgers,

:43:40. > :43:42.at the moment almost one in every 30 coins we use is counterfeit.

:43:43. > :43:49.Let's find out more from Radio 4's Moneybox presenter Paul Lewis.

:43:50. > :43:58.Good morning. We know it has got 12 sides. What else do we know about

:43:59. > :44:03.this new pound coin? Here it is listening, and here is one of the

:44:04. > :44:07.old ones. This is over 30 years old. It is from 1984. You can see it is a

:44:08. > :44:12.big bigger, and it is glossier because it is new. Two metals, one

:44:13. > :44:23.silver coloured and won gold coloured. Brown the edge it has in

:44:24. > :44:31.graving on only half of its sides. It has a panel under the Queen's

:44:32. > :44:38.head. As you move it, it changes from 81 into a ?. That is a very

:44:39. > :44:42.clever feature. There is also micro writing just by the name of the

:44:43. > :44:49.Queen, there is tiny, tiny lettering. And varied in side is

:44:50. > :44:53.something secret which enables the Royal Mint to tell if it is a

:44:54. > :45:01.forgery. We would just talking about the number of counterfeit coins.

:45:02. > :45:09.There are 1.5 billion being made, and they will replace the 1.5

:45:10. > :45:14.billion pound coins. Get out your old pound coins because this one

:45:15. > :45:21.will appear at the end of March, but the old one won't be usable after

:45:22. > :45:29.October 15, so do get rid of them. What can you do with your old pound

:45:30. > :45:33.coins? Just spend them! Or, of course, if you don't manage that,

:45:34. > :45:38.take them into your bank. They will probably take them a while. After

:45:39. > :45:41.that you will need to make a trip to the Bank of England. So best to get

:45:42. > :45:49.rid of them by the middle of October. It is not often you tell us

:45:50. > :45:55.to spend! The thing that always annoys me when you get new coins is

:45:56. > :45:59.vending machines. And train ticket machines, that kind of thing. We

:46:00. > :46:04.have talked to the British vending Association who have half a million

:46:05. > :46:07.sheens that they look after. They won't guarantee that the new coin

:46:08. > :46:12.will be accepted at the end of March, though they say a lot of them

:46:13. > :46:15.will accept it, and they went even guarantee that the old one will work

:46:16. > :46:20.either. There will be a period where you will probably has to carry

:46:21. > :46:24.around new and old coins if you rely on vending machines, parking

:46:25. > :46:28.machines, ticket machines, all the things that take the coin, and of

:46:29. > :46:32.course shopping trolleys. They may all have to have the little devices

:46:33. > :46:35.that you have to put your coin in changed doing that period. Keep some

:46:36. > :46:40.old ones and some new ones, is really the role. Thank you for that,

:46:41. > :46:45.it will be interesting to see what happens.

:46:46. > :46:52.Are you looking for a pound coin? The advice was to check the back of

:46:53. > :47:02.the sofa. Oh, look! This used to be 12 sided.

:47:03. > :47:05.This is the first 12 sided coin since then. They are not that

:47:06. > :47:10.different, but you can tempt the macro tell them apart.

:47:11. > :47:13.Paul will have more on Moneybox on BBC Radio 4 at midday.

:47:14. > :47:19.You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.

:47:20. > :47:25.by the Transport Secretary to think long and hard before choosing

:47:26. > :47:28.a diesel, as the government looks at ways to cut air pollution.

:47:29. > :47:30.The White House has barred several major news organisations

:47:31. > :47:32.from a press briefing being given by President Trump's spokesman.

:47:33. > :47:35.The BBC, along with CNN and the New York Times

:47:36. > :48:00.Here's Ben with a look at this morning's weather.

:48:01. > :48:07.If you are out spending your hard earned cash this weekend the weather

:48:08. > :48:15.is not in great shape. This is the sort of view we are waking up to in

:48:16. > :48:19.places. This picture is in Fife, Scotland, indicative of the wet

:48:20. > :48:22.conditions that many parts of the country are seeing, particular up to

:48:23. > :48:28.the north and west. Some blustery winds as well. A south-westerly wind

:48:29. > :48:32.is bringing some mild air in towards our direction, and also this

:48:33. > :48:36.pipeline of cloud, pretty grey skies for many, and some outbreaks of

:48:37. > :48:42.rain, as we have already seen across Scotland. Into Northern Ireland and

:48:43. > :48:46.parts of Wales as well. We really will see quite a lot of rain today

:48:47. > :48:52.and it could even give some poor travelling conditions with lots of

:48:53. > :48:56.surface water and spray on the roads. All the while, things will

:48:57. > :48:59.improve across Scotland and Northern Ireland, and by this afternoon there

:49:00. > :49:03.should be some spells of sunshine and a pretty decent end to the day.

:49:04. > :49:08.Through north-west England and down to Wales, we keep the rain right to

:49:09. > :49:11.the day. The risk of some poor travelling conditions, and that rain

:49:12. > :49:16.beginning to infringe its way into the south-west by the middle of the

:49:17. > :49:19.afternoon. Through the Midlands, East Anglia and the south-east, some

:49:20. > :49:23.patchy rain, it will be quite cloudy, but the rain not as heavy.

:49:24. > :49:27.It will be accompanied by some blustery winds. White windy if you

:49:28. > :49:32.are off to the Premier League matches this afternoon, but not a

:49:33. > :49:38.huge amount of rain. Through this evening and tonight, some epics of

:49:39. > :49:46.rain will continue, but it will tend to fizzle away. Another batch of

:49:47. > :49:48.rain will start to work its way into Northern Ireland and western

:49:49. > :49:57.Scotland by the end of the night or so tomorrow is a bit of a sense of

:49:58. > :50:00.deja vu. A wet day tomorrow because of the rain not clearing away

:50:01. > :50:05.quickly. The rain will again set across north-west England and Wales.

:50:06. > :50:07.To the south-east, still a blustery wind, and feeling mild. Cooler

:50:08. > :50:12.towards the north-west. Anti-going on with the weather.

:50:13. > :50:19.A mixed picture, thank you. An island which inspired the

:50:20. > :50:21.foundation of the National Trust, has been gifted to the conservation

:50:22. > :50:23.charity after more than Sitting in the middle

:50:24. > :50:26.of the Lake District, Grasmere Island was left

:50:27. > :50:29.to the Trust by its former Grasmere Island lies at the heart

:50:30. > :50:41.of the Lake District. Wordsworth is said to have

:50:42. > :50:45.picnicked here frequently. But back in 1893 the island was put

:50:46. > :50:49.up for sale and the thought of this idyllic spot becoming private

:50:50. > :50:56.property outraged a local clergyman. He had a deep passion that

:50:57. > :50:59.everybody needed access The journey to Grasmere Island

:51:00. > :51:08.is an idyllic experience in itself. Back in 1893 the new owner made

:51:09. > :51:12.a few additions which did not go He planted some shrubbery,

:51:13. > :51:23.which caused a lot of indignation. A respectful letter was written

:51:24. > :51:25.asking him to reconsider If you and your friends felt

:51:26. > :51:37.so strongly about what happened to the island, you were perfectly

:51:38. > :51:41.competent to turn up to the sale That is exactly the issue

:51:42. > :51:52.that he was concerned about, that bits were being sold off

:51:53. > :51:56.to the highest bidder and they could He was passionate that

:51:57. > :52:00.ordinary people have access The loss of this island for public

:52:01. > :52:04.use proved the catalyst that inspired him to become a founding

:52:05. > :52:06.father of the National trust. But it is only now that the Trust

:52:07. > :52:10.has been able to take The last owner

:52:11. > :52:12.bequeathed it to them. So now this island belongs

:52:13. > :52:15.to the National Trust, will it be Whilst we would never

:52:16. > :52:22.stop people from coming, the physical access to the island

:52:23. > :52:24.is difficult, which makes And as a conservation charity,

:52:25. > :52:32.that is important to us. The Cannon spent his final years

:52:33. > :52:44.on the shore of Grasmere. From here he could view

:52:45. > :52:47.the island that helped him Now, at last, the island is part

:52:48. > :52:56.of the Trust's portfolio, to be preserved and enjoyed

:52:57. > :53:01.by everyone for ever. From "clicktivism" to "squad goals",

:53:02. > :53:10.more than 300 new words have been added to the online version

:53:11. > :53:13.of the Oxford Dictionary. Many are social media buzzwords,

:53:14. > :53:17.so how many of us really use them? Is that one of those

:53:18. > :53:52.bikes that kids have? It is where you advertise

:53:53. > :53:57.things locally for people Inspiration, what

:53:58. > :54:44.you are aiming for. Joining us now to help us decipher

:54:45. > :54:47.it all is linguistics expert Rob Drummond

:54:48. > :55:02.from the University of Manchester. U2 are just arguing about squad

:55:03. > :55:05.goals. I was contesting it being new, because I thought that is

:55:06. > :55:11.forever being used in a sports environment. We have got goals for

:55:12. > :55:15.the squad, but you are saying that is a different meaning. A similar

:55:16. > :55:18.meaning, but I think the squad is different. We are now saying squads

:55:19. > :55:26.of friends, especially teenage girls. So it is your aspirations and

:55:27. > :55:33.things, as a group. Yes. What do you think of all these new words? It is

:55:34. > :55:39.great, some won't hang around for long, but on a serious note, the

:55:40. > :55:43.fact that language does change and people can create new words, it is a

:55:44. > :55:46.good thing because language has always changed and will always

:55:47. > :55:54.change, and whether some of these stick around, I am not sure. Talk us

:55:55. > :56:03.through this one. Dash-macro smishing. That is a clever one. It

:56:04. > :56:10.sounds nice as well. Some of them, when they sound nice, they stick

:56:11. > :56:14.around. The fraudulent practice of sending text messages from fake

:56:15. > :56:21.companies. So who decides what comes in and out

:56:22. > :56:25.of the dictionary? They will trawl the social media and the waters

:56:26. > :56:32.around. If words start becoming used more frequently, they will take them

:56:33. > :56:36.on and put them in. In this online version, it is more temporary. They

:56:37. > :56:39.put things, see what sticks, and take them out if they disappear. It

:56:40. > :56:43.takes a while for them get into the more authoritative printed

:56:44. > :56:50.dictionary. If someone is big in their sport, they might know this

:56:51. > :56:59.one. Yes, that was me this morning. It is high intensity training. So

:57:00. > :57:13.this is just an acronym? Yes. Some acronyms you can pronounce, they

:57:14. > :57:19.become a word, like scuba. The last one we have got written down on our

:57:20. > :57:29.high-tech board here is cat lady. I think I know this one. Someone who

:57:30. > :57:35.is of a certain age who is keen on cats, and that is their life. Yes,

:57:36. > :57:44.some of them seem to have been around quite a long time. That is

:57:45. > :57:48.what it is. On the back it says, and older woman who lives alone with a

:57:49. > :57:51.large number of cats, to which she is thought to be obsessively

:57:52. > :57:57.devoted. That is pretty obvious. This will

:57:58. > :58:03.make a game of Scrabble hard because you will want to refer to the

:58:04. > :58:09.dictionary to clarify it is real, but if it is constantly changing?

:58:10. > :58:15.They have their own dictionary. I heard the Scrabble champion talking

:58:16. > :58:17.once, who said he had words specially for Scrabble, and words

:58:18. > :58:23.for real life. It is a different world. And generational offences,

:58:24. > :58:29.younger people. That can be a challenge for different generations,

:58:30. > :58:36.as to when they can use the words that younger people use. Yes, even

:58:37. > :58:39.if they use it correctly. Meet text in my daughter about squad goals, it

:58:40. > :58:45.did not go down well. She found it embarrassing. That is part of

:58:46. > :58:49.language, and that is how language should be. It is right that young

:58:50. > :58:51.people have their own way of speaking that keeps them a little

:58:52. > :58:54.bit separate from older people. Everybody did that when they were

:58:55. > :59:00.younger and I think it is a good thing. Do you think it is mainly

:59:01. > :59:08.driven by young people? Not always. Sometimes in certain industries

:59:09. > :59:15.there is jargon. I think, in terms of spreading words, social media

:59:16. > :59:19.spreads words more quickly than they used to be. Thank you for joining

:59:20. > :00:03.us. Hello, this is Breakfast with

:00:04. > :00:05.Steph McGovern and Charlie Stayt. People buying a new car are told

:00:06. > :00:09.by the Transport Secretary to think long and hard before choosing

:00:10. > :00:12.a diesel amid growing concern Chris Grayling said drivers

:00:13. > :00:16.should consider vehicles Good morning, it's

:00:17. > :00:35.Saturday 25th February. Former Labour Foreign Secretary

:00:36. > :00:40.David Miliband says the party is further from power than at any

:00:41. > :00:45.point in the last 50 years following the Conservative's success

:00:46. > :00:51.in the Copeland by-election. President Trump steps up his battle

:00:52. > :00:54.with the media as a number of news organisations are barred

:00:55. > :00:58.from a White House briefing. It's farewell to Leicester

:00:59. > :01:02.for Claudio Ranieiri as he tells fans the dream he hoped would last

:01:03. > :01:17.forever has died. We are looking at the rise in

:01:18. > :01:22.popularity of women's American football as a new series in the

:01:23. > :01:27.sport gets under way. And we have the weather. The weather does not

:01:28. > :01:32.look particularly inspiring this weekend. There will be a lot of

:01:33. > :01:34.cloud around and it will be fairly blustery as well. All the details in

:01:35. > :01:38.15 minutes. Motorists should think

:01:39. > :01:42.long and hard before buying a diesel car,

:01:43. > :01:44.that's the message from the He's urging drivers to consider

:01:45. > :01:47.a less-polluting vehicle instead. four in ten cars on Britain's

:01:48. > :01:49.roads are diesel. Under Labour they had been billed

:01:50. > :01:52.as the clean alternative to petrol Now they're said to be one

:01:53. > :01:56.of the reasons for increasing Let's get more on this

:01:57. > :02:12.with our correspondent Nick Quraishi These comments by Chris Grayling in

:02:13. > :02:18.the Daily Mail are a complete different to what Labour did when it

:02:19. > :02:23.was in power. In 2001, Gordon Brown reduced tax on low-sulphur fuel.

:02:24. > :02:27.That had the effect that the number of annual diesel car registrations

:02:28. > :02:32.more than doubled to 8 million a year. But with diesel comes added

:02:33. > :02:39.air pollution. There are 12 million diesel cars, we estimate, on our

:02:40. > :02:45.roads, and the government believes 23,500 people a year die from

:02:46. > :02:48.exposure to nitrogen dioxide. The Department for Transport source is

:02:49. > :02:54.saying Chris Grayling is not saying do not go out and buy diesel, simply

:02:55. > :02:58.consider the alternatives. The official government line is that it

:02:59. > :03:04.is committed to reducing harmful emissions and improving air quality.

:03:05. > :03:07.It says it has put ?2 billion into various programmes since 2011 and

:03:08. > :03:11.will come up with new plans later this year. One of those plans is a

:03:12. > :03:16.scrappage scheme where motorists will be paid to get rid of diesel in

:03:17. > :03:35.favour of something less polluting. We know the Mayor of London, Sadiq

:10:09. > :10:11.will you be taking any notice of the study out this week

:10:12. > :10:14.which suggests that eating ten portions of fruit and vegetables

:10:15. > :10:18.We've long been told that five portions a day can bring

:10:19. > :10:20.significant health benefits, so is doubling your intake really

:10:21. > :10:24.worth it, and is it even realistic? In a moment we'll get some tips

:10:25. > :10:29.from a dietician, but first here's what some of you think.

:10:30. > :10:37.I hardly ever eat one or even two, so I get nowhere near ten.

:10:38. > :10:40.The price of everything is going up as it is now,

:10:41. > :10:45.so for the extra fruit and the extra veg it's going to cost more money.

:10:46. > :10:50.I think that fruit and veg is so cheap to get, so I don't think

:10:51. > :10:57.anyone can say they can't afford it, fruit and veg, and it's

:10:58. > :11:05.Well, it's a balance then because if they are saying ten

:11:06. > :11:10.portions, well personally I like to eat meat so I am

:11:11. > :11:28.I enjoy it, but I'm probably too lazy to prepare it

:11:29. > :11:36.Dietician Ursula Philpot joins us now.

:11:37. > :11:45.Good morning. In front of us we had this plague of fruit and veg and

:11:46. > :11:49.that is the ten a day. It is indeed. 1080 g portions of fruit and

:11:50. > :11:55.vegetables. You can see onions, things you can put into things,

:11:56. > :12:01.fruit, salads and vegetables. It sounds a lot. You can do it, it is

:12:02. > :12:06.doable, especially if you add things like pickles, pulses, tinned,

:12:07. > :12:13.frozen. It is doable, but it takes time, effort and creativity. You do

:12:14. > :12:17.not normally eat and onion. How much onion do you have to eat for it to

:12:18. > :12:26.qualify? 80 grams which is about one of those. A whole onion? Most of

:12:27. > :12:33.that, yes. But if you are making a chilly, you can chop it in, stews,

:12:34. > :12:38.you can chop root vegetables, carrots, courgettes. That is an easy

:12:39. > :12:42.way of getting fruit and vegetables in without feeling like you are

:12:43. > :12:48.eating a lot. I remember when the recommendation for five day came out

:12:49. > :12:54.and that felt stressful. Ten day feels like an awful lot and it is

:12:55. > :12:58.hard to it. I would not ask most people to try counting it. I would

:12:59. > :13:03.say aiming for fruit and vegetables at every meal and if possible in

:13:04. > :13:09.snacks as well. Then you could get enough. You do not have to go to ten

:13:10. > :13:16.a day. If you are on two or three at the moment, anything is beneficial.

:13:17. > :13:21.Going up to five day your risk of heart disease and stroke comes down

:13:22. > :13:25.to about 10%. If you are on ten it is the optimal, but for most people

:13:26. > :13:30.it is not realistic everyday. But anything you can do is better than

:13:31. > :13:36.nothing. Even a few more pieces of fruit and a day is fantastic. This

:13:37. > :13:42.report earlier in the week talked about whether cooking your

:13:43. > :13:47.vegetables, you boil away all the good stuff out of it, and this

:13:48. > :13:53.suggests otherwise. Absolutely. Some people say you have to eat raw fruit

:13:54. > :13:57.and vegetables, it is not true. You can have hand, frozen and dried.

:13:58. > :14:01.Provided you have fruit and vegetables and most meals, that is

:14:02. > :14:06.what counts. Think about the rainbow colours, think about the different

:14:07. > :14:09.colours of fruit and vegetables and lending its weight more towards

:14:10. > :14:14.vegetables and fruit, but including fruit in that. You mentioned variety

:14:15. > :14:19.and the rainbow of colour, is it a case that you should eat more

:14:20. > :14:24.vegetables fruit? Yes, you should eat more veg than fruit, but it is

:14:25. > :14:28.because you get more variety of the vitamins and minerals. There are

:14:29. > :14:33.things in vegetables that you cannot find an fruit. If you go for five a

:14:34. > :14:41.day, go for at least three vegetables and a couple of fruits.

:14:42. > :14:44.If it is ten, go for six and four. The sugar content is very minimal

:14:45. > :14:50.and the health benefits that come with that far outweigh the problems

:14:51. > :14:54.with the sugar. They are still healthy snacks. Fruit is a healthy

:14:55. > :15:01.snack. There was a gentleman who said he did not eat any fruit. How

:15:02. > :15:05.often do you meet people who eat no fruit? You would think not often,

:15:06. > :15:10.but one in three failed to get five a day and there are people around

:15:11. > :15:14.who eat very little or virtually none. Actually, for those people

:15:15. > :15:18.having a few portions of fruit and vegetables would make a big

:15:19. > :15:23.difference to their risk factors. If someone went from zero up to five,

:15:24. > :15:28.their risk factor would drop significantly. People should think

:15:29. > :15:33.about doing it. We did test tube at about half past seven and by then

:15:34. > :15:39.you had eaten a banana. Since then I have had scrambled eggs. On top of

:15:40. > :15:45.those I put grilled tomatoes and mushrooms and baked beans. I am

:15:46. > :15:51.doing OK. How do baked beans count? Yes, they do count is five a day.

:15:52. > :15:57.You cannot have a five portions of beans, but things like baked beans,

:15:58. > :16:03.lentils, pulses, fruit juice if it is a small class, frozen vegetables,

:16:04. > :16:10.pickles, beetroot, source like guacamole, once you think a bit more

:16:11. > :16:15.broadly, it is not so daunting. I am craving beans on toast now.

:16:16. > :16:19.Once you start thinking... Let's find out what is happening with the

:16:20. > :16:24.weather. Are you a big fruit and veg man?

:16:25. > :16:25.I try to get about five. I have a banana on my desk which I may treat

:16:26. > :16:38.myself to after this. If you are out fruit and veg

:16:39. > :16:45.shopping, take your umbrella because this is the scene. It is a bit

:16:46. > :16:50.blustery, but nothing like the wind we had with storm Doris. Some gales

:16:51. > :16:57.blowing in places, but nothing like we had the other day. But heavy rain

:16:58. > :17:03.is starting to fall across parts of north-west England, particularly in

:17:04. > :17:08.Cumbria. There is a risk of big puddles, surface water and spray on

:17:09. > :17:12.the roads, perhaps a little bit of localised flooding. The weather

:17:13. > :17:16.working southwards and eastwards throughout the day. But this

:17:17. > :17:19.afternoon Northern Ireland and Scotland brighten up quite nicely

:17:20. > :17:26.and we will see some sunshine later on. Eight or 9 degrees by the middle

:17:27. > :17:32.part of the afternoon. But the rain will keep on falling across

:17:33. > :17:36.north-west England. 50-70 millimetres in some places. Rain in

:17:37. > :17:42.Devon and Cornwall as well. In the Midlands and East Anglia, patchy

:17:43. > :17:47.rain and a blustery wind blowing. But a fair amount of dry weather on

:17:48. > :17:52.balance. If you are off to these Premier League matches this

:17:53. > :17:57.afternoon, you might get lucky. Chelsea will probably be largely

:17:58. > :18:02.drive. This evening and overnight we will see some damp weather at times,

:18:03. > :18:09.the rain tending to fizzle away. Then a bit of dry weather briefly

:18:10. > :18:13.before, here we go again, this next band of rain works its way into the

:18:14. > :18:21.picture. Tomorrow it is maybe a sense of deja vu. This time the rain

:18:22. > :18:27.will hang around. It will not tear away from Scotland. More rain for

:18:28. > :18:31.north-west England and Wales. Quite blustery, but mild, turning cooler

:18:32. > :18:35.and fresher in the North West with some blustery showers by the end of

:18:36. > :18:37.the day. You better go and get your banana,

:18:38. > :18:51.we do not want to deprive you. How is enjoying its moment of

:18:52. > :18:55.spotlight as the City of Culture, but in the 17th century it was

:18:56. > :18:59.enjoying the highlight for different reasons. It is where the Civil War

:19:00. > :19:03.began and the Royal Shakespeare Company is in the city to

:19:04. > :19:22.commemorate the story. We have been behind the scenes.

:19:23. > :19:25.It is a comedy about Hull, penned by a writer from Hull,

:19:26. > :19:27.so where else to stage a new play about the city?

:19:28. > :19:35.It is a comedy about Hull, penned by a writer from Hull,

:19:36. > :19:37.Since January the cast of The Hypocrite have been

:19:38. > :19:40.rehearsing in a disused church in Hull, including the stars

:19:41. > :19:44.For people who don't know, it is about the beginning

:19:45. > :19:46.of the Civil War which happened in Hull.

:19:47. > :19:48.Beverley Gate is the centre point of that moment.

:19:49. > :19:51.The play is frantic, funny and there's a lot of us in it.

:19:52. > :19:54.For those of us who come from a time when it was too expensive

:19:55. > :19:58.to have a lot of people on stage, it's really exciting to be on stage

:19:59. > :20:02.The play is by Hull born writer Richard Bean who spent more than two

:20:03. > :20:06.years researching the real life of his lead character.

:20:07. > :20:12.The play focuses on 1642 when Sir John shut the city gates

:20:13. > :20:18.on the King and sparked the start of the Civil War.

:20:19. > :20:22.When I started reading the original papers it is like reading a French

:20:23. > :20:26.farce, that funny thing where the governor of the town

:20:27. > :20:40.It has taken the team a whole week to build

:20:41. > :20:44.It has taken the team a whole week to build the set ready for the show.

:20:45. > :20:47.It is now two days until opening night and everyone is heading

:20:48. > :20:49.through to the stage for technical rehearsals.

:20:50. > :20:52.It is the last chance for everyone in the team to practice

:20:53. > :20:54.the trickiest bits of the play until they are perfect.

:20:55. > :20:57.As the lead actor Mark Addy is in most of the three hours

:20:58. > :20:59.of the show, rehearsals have been gruelling.

:21:00. > :21:02.With Hull being the City of Culture 2017, to be involved in one

:21:03. > :21:07.of the big opening shows of the year is terrific.

:21:08. > :21:11.I do sometimes think am I too old for this?

:21:12. > :21:19.But we are getting there and it is one of those gifts of a show.

:21:20. > :21:24.The play is the fastest selling show in Hull Truck Theatre's history

:21:25. > :21:38.and probably the most eagerly awaited as well.

:21:39. > :21:48.Time now for a look at the newspapers.

:21:49. > :21:53.Broadcaster Janice Long is here to tell us what's caught her eye.

:21:54. > :22:01.You were just watching that piece about the RSC. You wanted to be an

:22:02. > :22:06.actress. All I wanted to be was an actress and my favourite part, I

:22:07. > :22:11.played Bottom. It did not happen professionally? It was difficult to

:22:12. > :22:16.get a grant and I did not desperately wanted because I did

:22:17. > :22:20.other things. But I always said when I got older I would like to be an

:22:21. > :22:26.actress. You still could be. You never know.

:22:27. > :22:33.This features a BBC correspondent, Caroline Wyatt. A remarkable

:22:34. > :22:40.broadcaster. She has been living with MS for 25 years. It was

:22:41. > :22:45.definitely diagnosed a couple of years ago. The treatment she wanted

:22:46. > :22:49.is not suitable for her here on the NHS. She was watching a programme,

:22:50. > :22:56.Panorama, and saw this wonderful tale about how people can get it, so

:22:57. > :23:00.she approached this hospital in Mexico and they said they would take

:23:01. > :23:05.her. She thought she would have quite a wait, but it happened a lot

:23:06. > :23:10.quicker than she thought. This is her account. This is wonderful to

:23:11. > :23:16.read. This article is so moving. She started writing it and she is

:23:17. > :23:21.heading off to Mexico and she gives you great detail about what goes on,

:23:22. > :23:28.what she can see looking out of her hospital window. Her nurse is

:23:29. > :23:33.absolutely wonderful. Then she takes you through the treatment and it is

:23:34. > :23:37.quite heartbreaking. She has to have chemotherapy to kill cells, the bad

:23:38. > :23:44.cells, and then she can start regenerating her own cells. She is

:23:45. > :23:49.in remission now and she has to wait a couple of years to see if it

:23:50. > :23:54.works, but she is full of hope and she is feeling the ends of her

:23:55. > :23:57.fingers without pain. She collapsed on a London street and could not get

:23:58. > :24:04.up and that is when it was diagnosed. So, yes, it is very

:24:05. > :24:10.moving. It brings a tear to your eye and it is beautifully written. I

:24:11. > :24:16.recommend anybody to read it. The next story you have chosen is more

:24:17. > :24:23.straightforward. But it is about the pound coin. They are changing it.

:24:24. > :24:29.Yes, and they are inviting people to say what they want on one side. One

:24:30. > :24:34.of the most popular responses was a full English breakfast. You can

:24:35. > :24:39.imagine the master in graver designing the bacon, sausage and

:24:40. > :24:43.black pudding. Then when they came to the Black pudding they thought it

:24:44. > :24:49.was not a good idea. For health reasons? No, they did not think it

:24:50. > :24:54.was classy enough to have the English breakfast on one side and

:24:55. > :24:58.the Queen on the other. Some people suggested David Beckham. In the end

:24:59. > :25:04.they went for an English rose, an Irish clover, a Scottish thistle and

:25:05. > :25:08.the Welsh league. It is not long before we were using them everywhere

:25:09. > :25:16.and the old ?1 coins will not be any good any more. They have got

:25:17. > :25:22.something in them. You have probably been to awards ceremonies in your

:25:23. > :25:28.time. A couple. Have you been to the tree of the year award? I had never

:25:29. > :25:34.heard of it. But trees are beautiful things and this one is stunning. It

:25:35. > :25:38.is an oak tree and it inspires hope because it has had many death

:25:39. > :25:43.threats. They wanted to put a motorway through it, a bypass, all

:27:11. > :27:14.be cold toast. Peanut butter has got to be hot toast. Why? I do not know.

:28:05. > :28:11.today? Fried chicken and a watermelon salad. What are you

:34:14. > :34:15.statues to him, not sacking him. He deserved, and bought himself,

:34:16. > :34:18.a bit more time in this, really. I'm not ashamed to say that

:34:19. > :34:22.when the news broke, I shed a tear. I shed a tear for Claudio,

:34:33. > :34:34.Crystal Palace or Here's what's happening

:34:35. > :34:37.in the Premier League today then. A win for Hull over Burnley would

:34:38. > :34:41.see them out of the bottom three, while Palace and Sunderland can

:34:42. > :34:43.capitalise if Hull slip up. At the top, Chelsea could go 11

:35:18. > :35:19.after a late win over Greg Tansey gave Inverness the lead

:35:25. > :35:26.missed their own penalty Billy McKay with an overhead kick

:35:27. > :35:46.to snatch all three points. Scotland and Wales will be trying to

:35:47. > :35:51.bounce back from defeat this afternoon. Our correspondent is at

:35:52. > :35:55.Murrayfield. It has been a whole decade since the Scots last beat the

:35:56. > :36:02.Welsh. Do you get the feeling from the Scottish grounds that this would

:36:03. > :36:06.be their day? Quite possibly. They are giving me a musical

:36:07. > :36:10.accompaniment as they test their PA system. There is a feeling from

:36:11. > :36:14.Scottish fans that this is a much changed Scotland this year, but they

:36:15. > :36:19.are much change from their last match, after five changes. The most

:36:20. > :36:22.notable is their captain, Berkeley is now their skipper. That may well

:36:23. > :36:28.affect Scotland. Wales has only made one change, George North in for Alex

:36:29. > :36:31.Cuthburt. Both sides really need to wind this match if they have any

:36:32. > :36:36.realistic chance of challenging for the title. Let us hear what both of

:36:37. > :36:43.the two captains have been saying about it this week. I know living in

:36:44. > :36:46.Wales what rugby means there, and I know the pressures they are under.

:36:47. > :36:58.The bubbly for me, there is always huge rasher to wind. Dash-macro

:36:59. > :37:05.pressure to win. I am a Scottish person in a part of Wales that is

:37:06. > :37:11.full on rugby. I think for them, winning is everything. It is a

:37:12. > :37:15.different Scottish team to potentially what we have seen

:37:16. > :37:18.before. Like I say, we are focused on the squad that we have at the

:37:19. > :37:23.minute, and what we need to do off the back of our game. You are only

:37:24. > :37:28.as good as your next one, not to last one, and we will focus on that.

:37:29. > :37:31.Looking at the wider tournament, you have Ireland against France later

:37:32. > :37:39.on, with Ireland looking to step up the pressure on leaders, England,

:37:40. > :37:44.who play tomorrow. Yes, Ireland and France, Ireland were impressive in

:37:45. > :37:48.despatching Italy. Always intriguing to see how Johnny Sexstone does. He

:37:49. > :37:53.could be a fly half for the Lions later this summer. It'll be

:37:54. > :37:58.interesting to see how Ireland deal with the explosive power of France.

:37:59. > :38:01.We expect tomorrow to be more of a formality. Italy have never beaten

:38:02. > :38:05.England, and England have made several changes. Italy have not done

:38:06. > :38:08.anything to suggest that they could really worry England, so we expect

:38:09. > :38:13.England to be top of the table after week three. The big Western from

:38:14. > :38:18.this set of games, is he will emerge as their main challengers? Indeed.

:38:19. > :38:21.Thank you. Can't wait for it all to start

:38:22. > :38:24.again, after a little recovery rate. Lizzie Yarnold lies fourth,

:38:25. > :38:26.going into today's, two heats, of the skeleton world championship,

:38:27. > :38:28.meeting in Germany. Olympic champion Yarnold has had

:38:29. > :38:30.an indifferent season She failed to improve on fourth

:38:31. > :38:36.place in her second run yesterday before the heat was cancelled due

:38:37. > :38:39.to heavy snow. The third heat gets underway

:38:40. > :38:42.later this morning. It's live on the BBC Sport

:38:43. > :38:46.website and red button. Britain's Mark Cavendish has

:38:47. > :38:48.retained the overall lead after the second stage of the Tour

:38:49. > :38:50.of Abu Dhabi. Australian Caleb Ewan

:38:51. > :38:52.thought he'd won the stage and raised his arms a little early

:38:53. > :38:55.in celebration, before realising he'd been pipped at the line

:38:56. > :38:57.by Germany's Marcel Kittel. Cavendish came in third to keep hold

:38:58. > :39:12.of the overall leader's red jersey. The sport of free running

:39:13. > :39:15.or parkour, has until now been seen as a daring activity

:39:16. > :39:17.for young adrenalin seekers. However there are now classes

:39:18. > :39:20.being run for the over 60's, and those giving it a go are finding

:39:21. > :39:23.that it's helping to improve their balance and spacial awareness,

:39:24. > :39:26.therefore reducing their risk I've been to join a Parkour fitness

:39:27. > :39:40.class in east London. It is the sport that is transforming

:39:41. > :39:42.our urban landscape. It's been a decade since parkour,

:39:43. > :39:45.or free running, first arrived But now meet the class of 2017,

:39:46. > :39:51.all in their 60s, 70s and 80s. They are feeling the benefits,

:39:52. > :39:54.as they overcome obstacles and explore their environment

:39:55. > :39:57.the parkour way, through a series Parkour has come such a long

:39:58. > :40:08.way in the last decade, since it was mainly young males

:40:09. > :40:10.looking to do dangerous things Now it's for all, including George,

:40:11. > :40:15.who is 88 and enjoying swinging. I haven't been doing anything

:40:16. > :40:26.for years, so I've been So has this given you

:40:27. > :40:33.a new lease on life? Earlier this year, parkour

:40:34. > :40:43.was officially recognised as a sport by the UK's various sports councils

:40:44. > :40:47.and this opens up access to new funds for more classes

:40:48. > :40:52.like this in other cities. They're finding this is helping

:40:53. > :41:00.to prevent people from falling We found balance and strength

:41:01. > :41:05.in particular has been improving the most in the body

:41:06. > :41:11.and so we have a lot of people say that it's helped them

:41:12. > :41:14.to not fall and be less fearful of just going out and doing

:41:15. > :41:17.everyday activities. Indeed, no one here said they'd

:41:18. > :41:20.fallen since they started this I just feel kind of perky,

:41:21. > :41:26.which is all right! You get a fall and then you have

:41:27. > :41:30.to go to the doctor. There are also classes

:41:31. > :41:35.to improve mental health. Parkour aims to improve the way

:41:36. > :41:37.we deal with problems and challenges Parkour is such an inclusive sport

:41:38. > :41:43.because there is no competitive behaviour and no entry level,

:41:44. > :41:45.so it's playtime for anybody It takes people out

:41:46. > :41:52.of their comfort zone, This is a very friendly

:41:53. > :42:02.exercise, isn't it? A final exercise was to pass each

:42:03. > :42:06.other on a narrow wall. Fall off here and we

:42:07. > :42:10.would be in trouble. We've come together,

:42:11. > :42:12.explored and got up close and personal with our surroundings

:42:13. > :42:15.in a way in me never This is a long way from that extreme

:42:16. > :42:21.image many of us have of parkour, but the sense of achievement

:42:22. > :42:35.is just the same. In sparring. Dash-macro inspiring.

:42:36. > :42:38.Although the things like balance, which are so important for older

:42:39. > :42:42.people. Yes, and taking away the fear of

:42:43. > :42:49.doing everyday things. For more inspiration, check out their

:42:50. > :42:53.website. We are going to talk about American

:42:54. > :42:57.football. Ladies American football. We have

:42:58. > :43:04.done pieces in the past on the men's gain, but also a mixed game, like a

:43:05. > :43:09.tad version. It was great to see how tactical it is.

:43:10. > :43:13.With a sequence of it now. There is no-one else

:43:14. > :43:16.that can take this on. For what we have got

:43:17. > :43:19.inside, it is unbeatable. For people who haven't made

:43:20. > :43:21.the squad, they are fighting That is where the power comes from,

:43:22. > :43:26.within each other, we have competition and we compete with each

:43:27. > :43:28.other, and everyone If I get knocked

:43:29. > :43:37.down, I get back up. I keep running, and I just

:43:38. > :43:42.love to hit people. Really, I just hope there

:43:43. > :43:45.is a legacy for every girl that is here, to carry on as long

:43:46. > :43:48.as they can, and then there is a whole new wave of women

:43:49. > :43:58.that are inspired to play as well. Joining us now are American Football

:43:59. > :44:00.player Phoebe Schecter, representing Great Britain's

:44:01. > :44:23.national team, and Sport England's We have been talking about inspiring

:44:24. > :44:29.people, and how parkour is inspiring people to get active. But this is

:44:30. > :44:33.also inspiring people. Yes, and actually we know that one of the

:44:34. > :44:37.biggest barriers for women and girls is what goes on in their heads. Lots

:44:38. > :44:40.of people look at those amazing pictures and think those women are

:44:41. > :44:46.incredible, but I am not like that, I am not that fit or fast. This is

:44:47. > :44:51.all about showing pictures of real women, and showing that it is fine,

:44:52. > :44:56.it doesn't matter what size you are, it does not matter if you are not

:44:57. > :45:00.brilliant, you absolutely can do it. Yes, but some people will look at

:45:01. > :45:06.you, Phoebe, and think she is wearing all the kit, she is into

:45:07. > :45:10.fitness in a big way, tell us what the law of American football is for

:45:11. > :45:17.you, and why people should go with it? American football suit

:45:18. > :45:21.everybody. We have people who are forfeit 11, or six foot five. We

:45:22. > :45:26.playing on the same team. Every shape and size should come and try

:45:27. > :45:30.out this sport. Perhaps the fact that it is new, people may not have

:45:31. > :45:34.a perceived notion of how it should be, other than that it is on the TV

:45:35. > :45:37.and it looks exciting. But there is a position for everyone, and

:45:38. > :45:43.everyone is welcome to try it out. One thing that might put people off

:45:44. > :45:47.is getting hurt, it is so physical. But perhaps it is not as physical as

:45:48. > :45:54.rugby, and it is more tactical than you might imagine. Exactly. If you

:45:55. > :46:01.look at it, it looks a bit start and stop, but I look at it as aggressive

:46:02. > :46:06.chess. It is very tactical. You can go and do one rule, and perhaps if

:46:07. > :46:10.you like to take on a hit, that is for you, but if you want to be the

:46:11. > :46:15.one who delivers a hit, that is for you. But we also have the option of

:46:16. > :46:18.doing noncontact as well. What is interesting about it, there are so

:46:19. > :46:22.many different sports out there, we just don't realise all of them are

:46:23. > :46:28.going on. I did not know you could get women's American football here.

:46:29. > :46:33.We are also showcasing roller Derby, another all shapes and sizes sport,

:46:34. > :46:36.a bit trendy, a bit different. It is a game that you play on roller

:46:37. > :46:41.skates into teams, and the idea is to get one key player to the other

:46:42. > :46:45.side of the court, and that team then helps the player do it and the

:46:46. > :46:49.other team try to stop you. It is very physical, that is a contact

:46:50. > :46:53.sport. One of our messages is about strength. Women are actually really

:46:54. > :46:56.strong, and it is entirely up to you. You might think you want

:46:57. > :47:00.something gentle, but actually at the end of a hard day at work,

:47:01. > :47:03.belting somebody might be exactly what you feel like doing. That

:47:04. > :47:13.strength is important. We are looking at some of the campaign

:47:14. > :47:18.films. Phoebe, Jennie mentioned it early on, when girls are growing up

:47:19. > :47:21.and I may be 14 or 15, they are very self-conscious, and perhaps there

:47:22. > :47:26.was a moment where even if they are involved in sport, they pull out.

:47:27. > :47:31.Yes, and this is an issue we are facing at the moment. But actually,

:47:32. > :47:34.last week I was down with some 14-year-old girls, playing on a

:47:35. > :47:37.mixed team, and I think it built their confidence. I could see them

:47:38. > :47:42.develop throughout the hour because they thought, I can do this. I can

:47:43. > :47:46.go against the boys, whoever. That empowers them. We are empowering

:47:47. > :47:51.women to break the mould, and that is really exciting about any sport,

:47:52. > :47:55.that we are getting women active and building their confidence in that

:47:56. > :47:58.way. Looking at your Great Britain top. Tell us the context with the

:47:59. > :48:04.girls that take this up, where does the British team stand in the world

:48:05. > :48:09.of American football? We are heading to the World Championships this

:48:10. > :48:11.summer, at the end of June. The qualified at the European

:48:12. > :48:17.Championships, so we are looking to put up a big fight. It is out in

:48:18. > :48:21.Canada, and today we are kicking off Sapphire series with a domestic

:48:22. > :48:28.team, so we have got girls competing today for the first time in contact,

:48:29. > :48:32.which is huge for us. How did you measure about your campaign, whether

:48:33. > :48:36.it is having an impact, whether it is working? We did a huge survey, we

:48:37. > :48:41.ask 200,000 people every year how much sport they played and how

:48:42. > :48:45.active they are, and we know there is a huge gender gap. Since this

:48:46. > :48:49.campaign, that gender gap has shrunk, but it has not gone away. We

:48:50. > :48:54.will keep counting to see if that gender app shrinks, and we think it

:48:55. > :48:58.will. Phoebe, you would say to anyone watching this who is not

:48:59. > :49:01.doing much activity, what would you say question mark absolutely get

:49:02. > :49:09.involved. Whatever sport maybe, get involved. We are looking for people,

:49:10. > :49:12.but get to the Facebook page and you can find a team near you to get

:49:13. > :49:18.involved with. Lovely to see you both. We have got a game right after

:49:19. > :49:21.this. Good luck! You are all kitted out.

:49:22. > :49:23.You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.

:49:24. > :49:32.People buying a new car are urged by the Transport Secretary to think

:49:33. > :49:36.long and hard before choosing a diesel as the government looks at

:49:37. > :49:41.ways to cut a pollution. The White House has barred several

:49:42. > :49:43.major news organisations from a press briefing being given by

:49:44. > :49:47.President Trumpettes Maghera spokesman. The BBC, along with CNN

:49:48. > :49:50.and the New York Times were among those excluded.

:49:51. > :50:01.Here's Ben with a look at this morning's weather.

:50:02. > :50:06.Looking wet and blustery in places, and rather grey. The most, I have

:50:07. > :50:11.been able to find this morning of these crocuses in Cambridge. A lot

:50:12. > :50:16.of cloud around to the rest of today. Quite a blustery wind, but

:50:17. > :50:22.not as windy as Storm Doris. Still some gale force winds in places. We

:50:23. > :50:28.have had a lot of rain across Northern Ireland, and Scotland,

:50:29. > :50:31.increasingly setting in across parts of north-west England. Part of

:50:32. > :50:35.Cumbria could see a lot of rain today, along with the hills and

:50:36. > :50:40.mountains of Wales. There may be some surface water and spray and

:50:41. > :50:44.even localised flooding. Through the day, things will improve across

:50:45. > :50:48.Northern Ireland and Scotland with a bit of bite is developing. This is

:50:49. > :50:54.3pm today, if you are out and about. Some damp weather will persist

:50:55. > :50:58.across Cornwall and North Devon, and certainly over the hills of Wales.

:50:59. > :51:03.Through the Midlands and East Anglia, some patchy rain, and nine

:51:04. > :51:06.or 10 degrees. Quite blustery in this rain band, and the rain keeps

:51:07. > :51:10.on coming across parts of north-west England. For Northern Ireland and

:51:11. > :51:13.Scotland, things are improving, brightening up, the wind easing and

:51:14. > :51:18.just ate a few showers to take us through the afternoon. At

:51:19. > :51:25.Murrayfield, decent weather for the game. It should be largely dry. The

:51:26. > :51:30.rain will hang around for the good part of the afternoon in Dublin.

:51:31. > :51:35.This evening, prepare for some outbreaks of rain. It will ease away

:51:36. > :51:40.as the night goes on. Then we get a slot of dry weather, which will not

:51:41. > :51:44.last long. Here we go again, another band of rain slides into Northern

:51:45. > :51:47.Ireland and western Scotland. It'll bit cold across parts of Scotland,

:51:48. > :51:54.but frost free for most areas. Tomorrow morning, deja vu with rain

:51:55. > :52:00.again across the North. Fairly blustery, cloudy and damp weather.

:52:01. > :52:03.Brightening up later for Northern Ireland and Scotland, with some

:52:04. > :52:09.sunshine, but heavy showers by the end of the day along the West. A

:52:10. > :52:13.quick glimpse at Monday. The return to work is likely to be fairly

:52:14. > :52:15.blustery, particularly in the South. Some heavy, thundery and wintry

:52:16. > :52:21.showers. Thank you. Retirement communities aimed at gay,

:52:22. > :52:24.lesbian, bisexual and transgender people have grown in popularity

:52:25. > :52:26.across the world in recent years, and now the UK's first scheme

:52:27. > :52:29.could open in Manchester. The council says the city has

:52:30. > :52:31.the highest number of LGBT residents outside of London,

:52:32. > :52:33.and research shows many fear discrimination

:52:34. > :52:35.inside existing retirement homes. Let's talk to Councillor Bev Craig

:52:36. > :52:51.who's been involved in the plans. Good morning, thank you for joining

:52:52. > :52:57.us. Tell us how this idea has come about. It has come after quite a

:52:58. > :53:03.long aspiration that we have had. We have seen with interest what has

:53:04. > :53:06.happened in other countries, like Denmark and the United States, and

:53:07. > :53:11.the council commissioned some specific research carried out by the

:53:12. > :53:15.LGBT foundation to look at the needs of older LGBT people in this city,

:53:16. > :53:19.and it is one area they identified that concerned them most, as they

:53:20. > :53:22.get older, around feelings of isolation, and also concerns about

:53:23. > :53:26.dissemination and the worry about having to go back into the bars it

:53:27. > :53:34.as they reached older age. Just talk us through, who is living there and

:53:35. > :53:41.what it is like? For starters, it is not exclusively for LGBT people.

:53:42. > :53:44.They will be in the majority, but it is open to everybody. An application

:53:45. > :53:52.Kammy made from anyone in deep timidity. Dash-macro in the

:53:53. > :53:56.committee. There will be some flat to buy, some to rent, so it will be

:53:57. > :54:01.mixed tenure. And it will be accessible flats that are suitably

:54:02. > :54:06.developed for people as they get older with care needs, for carers to

:54:07. > :54:10.come in, and anything that might progress. But it will also be quite

:54:11. > :54:18.social and outward looking. We have got a scheme that is not LGBT, but

:54:19. > :54:21.it is a similar model. It has got a bistro, a shop, and a kiosk within

:54:22. > :54:26.it. The idea is that it is forward facing, but gives people the chance

:54:27. > :54:31.to be part of a community as they get older. You talked that about the

:54:32. > :54:35.research this has come from. Tell us more about that, about this idea of

:54:36. > :54:47.the concern of isolation and going back in the posit. Dash-macro

:54:48. > :54:51.closet. We are talking about a lot of people who have had to live a lot

:54:52. > :54:55.of their lives in the closet. As they have got older we have had

:54:56. > :55:00.massive legislative and social changes. As they age, they are

:55:01. > :55:04.concerned that they won't be in the most supportive of environments,

:55:05. > :55:07.either to do with their sexual orientation, or their gender

:55:08. > :55:13.identity. Their worry was around finding services and carers that

:55:14. > :55:16.would understand their needs. Can I just ask you about the

:55:17. > :55:21.practicalities, about who gets a place? On the face of it, gay people

:55:22. > :55:27.have fought for the right to not have to tell an employer their

:55:28. > :55:34.sexuality, but presumably in the application process, do you have two

:55:35. > :55:43.proof you are gay? No, you don't. I would question what tempo and people

:55:44. > :55:48.-- LGBT people have fought for, and I think they have fought for not

:55:49. > :55:52.having to tell you. I don't want to get into a semantic row about it,

:55:53. > :56:00.but in practice, you get a room? People who apply for it. There will

:56:01. > :56:04.be rooms or flats to buy, and various allocations. Not every LGBT

:56:05. > :56:08.person will want to live in this scheme. The people it is aimed that

:56:09. > :56:12.are perhaps those people who do not have traditional family unit who can

:56:13. > :56:15.look after them. Maybe they have lost their partner, or they lived a

:56:16. > :56:21.long way from their family. It is though kinds of people that it will

:56:22. > :56:23.appeal to. It'll be a needs -based application process. We would

:56:24. > :56:31.encourage people to take the box to say that they are LGBT. It is

:56:32. > :56:35.becoming a more common question that hopefully people feel comfortable

:56:36. > :56:39.answering. An island which inspired the

:56:40. > :56:41.foundation of the National Trust, has been gifted to the conservation

:56:42. > :56:43.charity after more than Sitting in the middle

:56:44. > :56:46.of the Lake District, Grasmere Island was left

:56:47. > :56:49.to the Trust by its former Grasmere Island lies at the heart

:56:50. > :56:57.of the Lake District. Wordsworth is said to have

:56:58. > :56:59.picnicked here frequently. But back in 1893 the island was put

:57:00. > :57:03.up for sale and the thought of this idyllic spot becoming private

:57:04. > :57:08.property outraged a local clergyman. He had a deep passion that

:57:09. > :57:12.everybody needed access The journey to Grasmere Island

:57:13. > :57:21.is an idyllic experience in itself. Back in 1893 the new owner made

:57:22. > :57:25.a few additions which did not go He planted some shrubbery,

:57:26. > :57:35.which caused a lot of indignation. A respectful letter was written

:57:36. > :57:38.asking him to reconsider If you and your friends felt

:57:39. > :57:49.so strongly about what happened to the island, you were perfectly

:57:50. > :57:52.competent to turn up to the sale That is exactly the issue

:57:53. > :57:59.that he was concerned about, that bits were being sold off

:58:00. > :58:03.to the highest bidder and they could He was passionate that

:58:04. > :58:09.ordinary people have access The loss of this island for public

:58:10. > :58:14.use proved the catalyst that inspired him to become a founding

:58:15. > :58:17.father of the National trust. But it is only now that the Trust

:58:18. > :58:20.has been able to take The last owner

:58:21. > :58:23.bequeathed it to them. So now this island belongs

:58:24. > :58:26.to the National Trust, will it be Whilst we would never

:58:27. > :58:33.stop people from coming, the physical access to the island

:58:34. > :58:35.is difficult, which makes And as a conservation charity,

:58:36. > :58:40.that is important to us. The Cannon spent his final years

:58:41. > :58:55.on the shore of Grasmere. From here he could view

:58:56. > :58:58.the island that helped him Now, at last, the island is part

:58:59. > :59:02.of the Trust's portfolio, to be preserved and enjoyed

:59:03. > :59:26.by everyone for ever. What a lovely way to end the

:59:27. > :59:29.programme this morning. Have a good day everybody. Goodbye.
