This is Breakfast, with Ben Thompson and Rachel Burden. | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
Jeremy Corbyn insists he's staying on to finish the job as Labour | :00:09. | :00:12. | |
leader, despite the party's humiliating by-election | :00:13. | :00:13. | |
In a speech today he'll urge Labour members to stand together, | :00:14. | :00:21. | |
but will admit he needs to do more to rebuild voter's trust. | :00:22. | :00:36. | |
Good morning. It's Sunday the 26th February. | :00:37. | :00:42. | |
Also ahead: Theresa May faces a Brexit rebellion by her own peers, | :00:43. | :00:46. | |
as Lord Heseltine vows to back opposition calls for a change | :00:47. | :00:50. | |
Calls to ban smoking outside hospitals in England. | :00:51. | :00:57. | |
Health officials say patients need better support to kick the habit, | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
In sport, in the Six Nations, Scotland beat Wales for the first | :01:01. | :01:09. | |
The Scots trailed at the break, but responded with two tries | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
in an excellent 29-13 win at Murrayfield. | :01:15. | :01:15. | |
Good morning. Some eastern parts might get some glimpses of bright as | :01:16. | :01:26. | |
this morning, but generally it is another cloudy day. Some outbreaks | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
of rain towards the north-west and some very windy weather in the west. | :01:31. | :01:32. | |
Full details in about 15 minutes. Jeremy Corbyn has said | :01:33. | :01:34. | |
he takes his share of responsibility for the party's defeat | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
in the Copeland by election. he says Labour has not done enough | :01:40. | :01:41. | |
to rebuild trust with people who don't feel the party | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
represents them. But he does insist he will continue | :01:47. | :01:48. | |
in his role as Labour leader as our political correspondent | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
Carole Walker reports. Jeremy Corbyn is again making it | :01:53. | :02:04. | |
clear he is not standing down and there will be no change of | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
direction. He was in Stoke last week when Labour saw off the challenge | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
from Ukip to hold onto the seat, RTE says his party's defeat in Copland | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
was deeply disappointing and he takes his share of responsibility. | :02:18. | :02:22. | |
-- but he says. The Tories say their victory in Copland was an | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
endorsement of Theresa May's leadership and policies. Labour | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
leader urges his party to stand together, to turn back the Tory | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
tide. Mr Corbyn says places like Copland have been left behind by | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
globalisation. He admits Labour hasn't done enough to rebuild trust | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
with people, he says have been sold out for decades and don't feel | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
Labour represents them. In his article on the Sunday Mirror, he | :02:47. | :02:48. | |
writes: But his words are unlikely to | :02:49. | :03:06. | |
reassure the critics in his party, who feared they are heading for | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
defeat at the general election under his leadership. | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
The Conservative former Deputy Prime Minister Lord Heseltine | :03:16. | :03:17. | |
has said he will rebel against the government | :03:18. | :03:19. | |
Writing in the Mail on Sunday, the senior peer said | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
he would support an amendment to the Article 50 legislation | :03:24. | :03:26. | |
so that Parliament can have what he describes as a meaningful | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
A leaked report has suggested that Mo Farah's coach Alberto Salazar may | :03:30. | :03:35. | |
have broken anti-doping rules to boost the performance | :03:36. | :03:37. | |
The document from the US Anti Doping Agency, | :03:38. | :03:44. | |
which is dated March 2016, was apparently passed | :03:45. | :03:46. | |
to the Sunday Times by Russian hackers. | :03:47. | :03:52. | |
It appears to allege that Salazar nearly certainly broke the rules | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
by giving some of his athletes a performance enhancing substance. | :03:56. | :03:58. | |
He and Mo Farah have always denied breaching anti-doping regulations. | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
Public Health England is calling for a tobacco-free NHS, | :04:02. | :04:03. | |
banning the habit across hospital sites and giving patients | :04:04. | :04:05. | |
Recent statistics from the British Thoracic Society show | :04:06. | :04:12. | |
a quarter of people admitted to hospital were recorded | :04:13. | :04:14. | |
as being current smokers but only seven percent were referred | :04:15. | :04:17. | |
More than 1 million smokers are admitted to NHS hospitals in the UK | :04:18. | :04:32. | |
every year. Many hospital trusts in England have already banned smoking, | :04:33. | :04:38. | |
but in it isn't always easy and Public Health England says much more | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
needs to be done to achieve a tobacco free NHS. According to | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
recent figures, one in four hospital patients in the UK are smokers. But | :04:49. | :04:53. | |
just 28% are asked if they want help to stop and only 7% are referred for | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
treatment. Public Health England now wants trusts to ban smoking in and | :04:59. | :05:04. | |
outside all NHS buildings in England and all smokers to be offered help | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
to quit. That might include prescriptions for nicotine | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
replacements, or a referral to a stop smoking support service, but it | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
also wants a senior clinician in Clwyd at every hospital to make sure | :05:18. | :05:24. | |
it happens. -- employed. If you get a service your chances of | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
successfully quitting are four times what they would be compared to if | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
you tried a self attempt quit. So it goes from 5% to about 20%, which may | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
sound modest, if you repeat this and people try again to quit, after | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
several attempts is a much greater chance of success. Smoking is | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
already banned by law across hospitals in Northern Ireland and in | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
Scotland and Wales they are preparing to bring in legislation | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
later this year. The Department of Health in England says it has no | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
plans to make it illegal at the moment. | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
At least 28 people have been injured in the US city of New Orleans | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
after a suspected drunk driver ploughed his car into a crowd | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
watching the annual Mardi Gras parade. | :06:08. | :06:09. | |
21 people, including children as young as three, | :06:10. | :06:11. | |
Police say the driver was arrested and that terrorism | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
President Trump has said he won't be attending this years | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
The news came in a tweet by Donald Trump, in another sign | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
of worsening relations with the mainstream press. | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
Only three other leaders before Mr Trump have not attended | :06:30. | :06:31. | |
the annual event which traditionally features a humorous speech | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
A ?17 million investment for Britain's artificial | :06:35. | :06:41. | |
intelligence and robotics industries has been announced | :06:42. | :06:43. | |
It's estimated the sector could add billions of pounds to the UK economy | :06:44. | :06:49. | |
by 2035, as our business correspondent Joe Lynam reports. | :06:50. | :06:58. | |
There may be a time when robots like this are accepted as part of our | :06:59. | :07:05. | |
everyday life. Gentle as lambs but enjoy chores like babysitting and | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
with the strength for more ominous services. Artificial intelligence | :07:11. | :07:16. | |
used to be the preserve of science fiction, but AI is coming and the | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
government thinks Britain will be well-placed to benefit. Artificial | :07:21. | :07:24. | |
intelligence when machines imitate human behaviour and where robots can | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
be trained to take important decisions without being ordered to | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
do so by humans. I am a sophisticated combination of | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
hardware and software. The Department of Culture, Media and | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
Sport believes AI could be worth an estimated ?600 billion to the UK | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
economy within 20 years. Before that the government will spend ?70 | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
million on AI research, including into surgical micro- robots it is, | :07:51. | :07:56. | |
as those robots capable of operation within nuclear facilities. Some may | :07:57. | :07:59. | |
worry that self thinking computers could cause more harm than good. | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
Others say that this will happen anyway and it is best that the UK | :08:05. | :08:08. | |
economy benefits from it rather than losing out. | :08:09. | :08:10. | |
The search for an 18 year old man reported to have fallen off | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
Arbroath Cliff in Angus will resume this morning. | :08:15. | :08:16. | |
The emergency services were alerted yesterday lunchtime, | :08:17. | :08:18. | |
but an operation including a helicopter, lifeboat and land | :08:19. | :08:20. | |
based rescuers, failed to find the missing teenager. | :08:21. | :08:26. | |
Police in Malaysia have declared Kuala Lumpur airport, | :08:27. | :08:29. | |
where the half brother of North Korea's leader was killed | :08:30. | :08:32. | |
with a nerve agent 12 days ago, to be safe. | :08:33. | :08:35. | |
Security officials carried out a detailed search | :08:36. | :08:37. | |
of the terminal building for the presence of VX and other | :08:38. | :08:39. | |
A pregnant giraffe in New York has become an unlikely YouTube sensation | :08:40. | :08:50. | |
after zookeepers began live streaming her labour. | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
April, who's expecting her fourth calf, has had more than 30 million | :08:55. | :08:57. | |
She gained even more fans when YouTube took down the video | :08:58. | :09:03. | |
after animal rights extremists complained it was a violation | :09:04. | :09:06. | |
of its nudity and sexual content policy. | :09:07. | :09:15. | |
It is now back up and we will take a little look at that later. | :09:16. | :09:22. | |
I do feel slightly sorry for the animal. I'm not sure I would want | :09:23. | :09:25. | |
any of my labours live streamed. Iraqi forces are continuing | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
their advance into western Mosul in an attempt to remove so-called | :09:31. | :09:32. | |
Islamic State from Iraq's Wyre Davies has sent this report | :09:33. | :09:35. | |
from an advanced Iraqi military base, where American troops | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
and advisers are proving a key part This woman is a victim | :09:40. | :09:42. | |
of Islamic State's latest tactic in its desperate bid | :09:43. | :09:53. | |
to avoid defeat in Mosul. The 55-year-old mother of seven | :09:54. | :09:58. | |
from the eastern part of the city "I was lying on the ground | :09:59. | :10:01. | |
and people were pointing to the sky from where the bomb | :10:02. | :10:10. | |
came", she told me. One of dozens of drone attack | :10:11. | :10:13. | |
victims they've treated This is pretty new for this conflict | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
but also for conflicts These mortars can be very effective | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
and the impact on the population This IS video eulogises the use | :10:21. | :10:26. | |
of commercially available drones An organisation which governs | :10:27. | :10:29. | |
according to brutal feudal codes, adapting modern technology | :10:30. | :10:38. | |
to lethal effect. Drones are yet another threat | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
for government troops now pursuing fighters from so-called | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
Islamic State into the narrow After days of fierce clashes | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
on the edge of the city. But from a field just to the south, | :10:52. | :11:01. | |
big American guns are helping to sway the battle perhaps | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
decisively in the government's This is an overwhelmingly | :11:06. | :11:07. | |
Iraqi military operation, but the role of American | :11:08. | :11:16. | |
advisers and troops, so-called boots on the ground, | :11:17. | :11:18. | |
is also critical. US artillery pieces | :11:19. | :11:20. | |
pounding targets in Mosul. American commanders are reluctant | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
to divulge too many sensitive details, but say US military | :11:24. | :11:25. | |
support will be decisive. The fight in Western Mosul would be | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
a tough fight for really any army So the Iraqi army, the Iraqi federal | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
police again will face It will be a lot of | :11:35. | :11:39. | |
house-to-house fighting. They don't have any | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
choice but to fight. There are an estimated 750,000 | :11:43. | :11:56. | |
civilians still trapped inside the besieged city. | :11:57. | :12:00. | |
We will be speaking to Wyre in Iraq, just after 7am, about the advance on | :12:01. | :12:08. | |
Mosul. The main stories On Breakfast: | :12:09. | :12:17. | |
Jeremy Corbyn says he takes his share of responsibility for the | :12:18. | :12:20. | |
Labour Party's defeat in the Copeland via election, but he says | :12:21. | :12:24. | |
he will stay on as leader. Calls for a ban on smoking outside | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
hospitals. Public Health England also wants to help people quit as | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
part of a tobacco free NHS. Also coming up, we recreate a galaxy | :12:33. | :12:40. | |
far, far away. The team from Click will have a look at how virtual | :12:41. | :12:44. | |
reality was used to create some of the most exciting effects in the | :12:45. | :12:51. | |
latest Star Wars movie. A lot of you are already getting in | :12:52. | :12:57. | |
touch with us about that smoking story. NHS England wanting to make | :12:58. | :13:02. | |
hospitals smoke-free. That also includes people smoking outside | :13:03. | :13:06. | |
hospital premises. You often go to a hospital and you have to get through | :13:07. | :13:10. | |
a lot of people smoking at the door. It is a bit of a patchwork picture | :13:11. | :13:14. | |
across the country and that's part of the problem. Smoking bans aren't | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
always enforced. One quick says that as long as smokers are away from | :13:19. | :13:22. | |
AccessPoint didn't have to ban it. -- access points. | :13:23. | :13:28. | |
Colin says it is horrible to walk through the smokers at the door when | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
you are trying to get into hospital. Ben says he was visiting his dad who | :13:33. | :13:36. | |
died in November of lung cancer at a hospital in London. Smokers were | :13:37. | :13:40. | |
outside all day, every day. It is a no-brainer, says this one | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
from Simon. I spent five years going to hospital after the wife had | :13:45. | :13:48. | |
cancer, caused by smoking. Having been in hospital for weeks, the | :13:49. | :13:56. | |
smell of smoke was constant as the room was just above the entrance. | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
We will be assessing that throughout the morning. You can get in touch | :14:01. | :14:05. | |
with us. E-mail us, or you can share your thoughts with us via Twitter or | :14:06. | :14:08. | |
on Facebook. Let's get some weather now. | :14:09. | :14:16. | |
How is the weather looking? . It's been turbulent recently. A lot going | :14:17. | :14:24. | |
on with the weather. Today brings more wet and windy weather for some | :14:25. | :14:28. | |
of us, particularly in northern and western parts of the country. | :14:29. | :14:32. | |
Further east, a bit quieter. We might even get away with some | :14:33. | :14:38. | |
brightness. A main storm out here in the Atlantic. This storm has not | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
been named by the UK Met Office but it has by the Irish weather service | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
because of impacts they are expecting so that is where we are | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
expecting some of the worst weather to be that this storm system will | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
bring some wet and windy weather into northern and western parts of | :14:56. | :15:00. | |
the UK today. Further east, early brightness. Increasing amounts of | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
cloud. The strongest winds around the coasts and hills of the West. | :15:05. | :15:11. | |
Wind gusts of 50 miles an hour. 50-60 miles per hour gusts across | :15:12. | :15:16. | |
north-west Wales. Extending across the Isle of Man, north-west England | :15:17. | :15:21. | |
and southern parts of Scotland as we go through the afternoon. Some heavy | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
bursts of rain turning to snow over the North of Scotland. Some cold air | :15:26. | :15:30. | |
digs in here. Here, pretty mild day with temperatures up to 12 degrees. | :15:31. | :15:35. | |
During this evening and tonight, a band of rain pushing east. Tending | :15:36. | :15:40. | |
to fizzle. Rain and snow moving north across Scotland and the far | :15:41. | :15:43. | |
north of Scotland and the Northern Isles through tonight. We could see | :15:44. | :15:49. | |
60- 70 mile an hour wind gusts and then some cold air. Temperatures | :15:50. | :15:53. | |
dropping away. Some pretty heavy showers moving in. These showers | :15:54. | :15:58. | |
will start to turn wintry. This is accommodation which could bring some | :15:59. | :16:03. | |
icy stretches on untreated surfaces. Particularly up towards the | :16:04. | :16:06. | |
north-west. Through tomorrow, a band of rain moving across the | :16:07. | :16:11. | |
south-east. Behind that, some sunshine. Heavy showers with hail | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
and under. Winter especially but not exclusively over high ground. | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
Temperatures lower than they have been. A lot going on with our | :16:19. | :16:27. | |
weather. Back to Rachel and then. More from Ben a little later. | :16:28. | :16:31. | |
We'll be back with a summary of the news at half past six. | :16:32. | :16:34. | |
Now it's time for the Film Review with Ben Brown and Jason Solomon. | :16:35. | :16:49. | |
Hello and welcome to The Film Review on BBC News. | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
To take us through this week's cinema releases is Jason Solomon. | :16:54. | :16:56. | |
This week we sift the debris of the Boston Marathon | :16:57. | :17:01. | |
in the company of Kevin Bacon and Mark Wahlberg in Patriots Day. | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
We take a long, sad look at the life of footballer | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
And putting you off fluffy robes for life, | :17:12. | :17:18. | |
we seek A Cure For Wellness in a Swiss Alpine spa. | :17:19. | :17:25. | |
It is the story of the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing | :17:26. | :17:30. | |
There was this extraordinary bombing of the Boston Marathon, | :17:31. | :17:39. | |
Their names, Tsarnaev, were on everyone's lips in 2013. | :17:40. | :17:53. | |
Everyone remembers, the brothers that escaped. | :17:54. | :17:59. | |
They had to shut the city down looking for the brothers. | :18:00. | :18:02. | |
One was holed up in a boat in someone else's backyard. | :18:03. | :18:06. | |
The strangely human story of this wanton | :18:07. | :18:10. | |
The film is put together in a classic disaster film fashion. | :18:11. | :18:17. | |
The people assembling for the big day of the Boston Marathon, | :18:18. | :18:20. | |
and including Mark Wahlberg as a cop on crowd duty. | :18:21. | :18:22. | |
Then there is the Kevin Bacon, the FBI man, and John Goodman | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
This is them having a look after the explosion. | :18:27. | :18:34. | |
You're not any closer to identifying the guys | :18:35. | :18:38. | |
that we're really looking for. | :18:39. | :18:39. | |
If we release the pictures now it's out of our control. | :18:40. | :18:47. | |
Gentlemen, if I may, right now, Boston is working against us. | :18:48. | :18:52. | |
Right now, in this city, when it comes to terrorism, | :18:53. | :18:58. | |
There are a lot of people talking, but talking about the wrong people. | :18:59. | :19:04. | |
Release the pictures of our guys, sit back and listen. | :19:05. | :19:06. | |
Start letting Boston work for us, I'm telling you. | :19:07. | :19:13. | |
But I can't snap my fingers on this, the decision goes up | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
It is difficult to make a Hollywood film about such | :19:18. | :19:31. | |
And the director has been faithful as much as he can and to those | :19:32. | :19:41. | |
affected by the tragedy and injured, the people with the amputations. | :19:42. | :19:44. | |
The people at the end of the film discussing how | :19:45. | :19:47. | |
It's a healing process for the town of Boston. | :19:48. | :19:53. | |
There is Mark Wahlberg, a poster boy for Boston. | :19:54. | :19:56. | |
What it does not do is examine the motives of the Tsarnaev | :19:57. | :20:06. | |
While it does feature them, they go in their homes | :20:07. | :20:13. | |
and feature their wives, but it does not probe the motives. | :20:14. | :20:16. | |
How can the renegade terrorists provoke such a carnage and bring | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
So it was a bit hurrah, this film for me. | :20:21. | :20:29. | |
The clip that we saw, it looked like a thriller. | :20:30. | :20:31. | |
It is very much of the safety of the American citizens, | :20:32. | :20:43. | |
protected by the great policemen and the Ambulance Service. | :20:44. | :20:46. | |
They will track down the killers, the media helping. | :20:47. | :20:48. | |
Although they look hapless, as the brothers led them a merry | :20:49. | :20:53. | |
dance for 89 hours and ended up hiding in someone's boat. | :20:54. | :20:56. | |
It is slightly ridiculous, without the humour and the absurdity | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
It is dangerous, it is called Patriots Day, so it's very | :21:01. | :21:11. | |
American and tub-thumping, but it loses something | :21:12. | :21:18. | |
that, because it is about people who wanted to be anti-American. | :21:19. | :21:27. | |
I wanted them to explore that more darkly than it does. | :21:28. | :21:30. | |
Then in his later life, so sad, really. | :21:31. | :21:38. | |
The popping of the champagne, the dazzling eyes. | :21:39. | :21:50. | |
He was the first boutique footballer. | :21:51. | :21:52. | |
But he was wispy, incandescent, he had it all by 22, | :21:53. | :22:08. | |
It is put together like a Shakespearean tragedy. | :22:09. | :22:15. | |
Sitting on the side lines, despairing and sad. | :22:16. | :22:18. | |
The only person who is not sad is George Best. | :22:19. | :22:21. | |
There is a shot where someone runs in, saying, "Besty, Besty, | :22:22. | :22:30. | |
But he is lying on a bed with a beautiful woman, | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
As an audience member you want to reach out | :22:35. | :22:50. | |
He doesn't want it, he rejects it, preferring | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
It is a little dour, in that it lacks the light | :22:57. | :23:11. | |
This is about a young executive, who is sent to retrieve his | :23:12. | :23:24. | |
company's CEO from the Swiss Alps from a spa? | :23:25. | :23:26. | |
Yes, this arrogant young man goes to a spa and there are people | :23:27. | :23:30. | |
I am very wary of people in these suits, with clip boards | :23:31. | :23:37. | |
Let's look at this along the corridors of uncertainty | :23:38. | :23:43. | |
Mr Lockhart, every time I turn around you are somewhere | :23:44. | :24:06. | |
Just trying to find my way back to my room. | :24:07. | :24:12. | |
There are signs everywhere, surely you did not wander | :24:13. | :24:16. | |
If you can point me in the direction of my room. | :24:17. | :24:33. | |
Nonsense, we can't let you get an infection. | :24:34. | :24:37. | |
Yes, if you don't like dentists, don't watch the next bit. | :24:38. | :24:46. | |
There are lots of old contraptions in this spa, like the 1950s | :24:47. | :24:56. | |
with the medicine ball, and saunas and the tanks | :24:57. | :25:02. | |
It is a recipe for disaster as to what was going on. | :25:03. | :25:15. | |
Well, leaving A Cure For Wellness, Moonlight is a restorative film. | :25:16. | :25:29. | |
It is a beautiful, tender, poetic coming of age story, | :25:30. | :25:32. | |
told about the life of a black boy from Miami, from a | :25:33. | :25:35. | |
It is about his life and his tenderly growing sexuality. | :25:36. | :25:42. | |
It is about identity and identity politics. | :25:43. | :25:49. | |
It has the chance of becoming the smallest film ever | :25:50. | :26:20. | |
It stands a chance of dislodging the favourite, La La Land. | :26:21. | :26:38. | |
I know that there is a backlash, people saying it is overhyped | :26:39. | :26:47. | |
with the 14 nominations going to the Oscars. | :26:48. | :26:49. | |
But there could be a tidy haul for it. | :26:50. | :26:54. | |
An old genre rebooted for a new generation. | :26:55. | :26:58. | |
People are going to it thinking that they will see | :26:59. | :27:00. | |
But it is a modern indie film with singing and dancing. | :27:01. | :27:04. | |
Well, I think that the Best Actor will not go to Ryan Gosling | :27:05. | :27:10. | |
but to Casey Affleck for Manchester By The Sea. | :27:11. | :27:12. | |
There is also a threat from Denzel Washington in Fences. | :27:13. | :27:15. | |
And Best Actress I think will go to Emma Stone. | :27:16. | :27:17. | |
I think that the Best Picture will go to La La Land. | :27:18. | :27:26. | |
I think maybe Moonlight could do it, but those directors could become | :27:27. | :27:30. | |
the Best Director winners - it's between him and the director | :27:31. | :27:33. | |
And maybe a screenplay for Moonlight and one for Manchester By The Sea. | :27:34. | :27:47. | |
Let's see how many of them you get right. | :27:48. | :27:50. | |
Don't forget you can catch up on our previous | :27:51. | :27:56. | |
This is Breakfast, with Ben Thompson and Rachel Burden. | :27:57. | :29:18. | |
Coming up before 7am, Ben will have the weather. | :29:19. | :29:22. | |
But first, a summary of this morning's main news. | :29:23. | :29:25. | |
Jeremy Corbyn says he takes his share of responsibility for Labour's | :29:26. | :29:29. | |
defeat in last Thursday's by-election in Copeland. | :29:30. | :29:31. | |
he says the party has not done enough to rebuild trust with people | :29:32. | :29:37. | |
Mr Corbyn also reiterated his determination to stay on as leader | :29:38. | :29:42. | |
The Conservative former Deputy Prime Minister, | :29:43. | :29:48. | |
Lord Heseltine, has said he will rebel against the government | :29:49. | :29:50. | |
Writing in the Mail on Sunday, the senior peer said | :29:51. | :29:59. | |
he would support an amendment to the Article 50 legislation | :30:00. | :30:01. | |
so that Parliament can have what he describes as a meaningful | :30:02. | :30:04. | |
A leaked report has suggested that Mo Farah's coach Alberto Salazar may | :30:05. | :30:11. | |
have broken anti-doping rules to boost the performance | :30:12. | :30:13. | |
The document from the US Anti Doping Agency, | :30:14. | :30:16. | |
which is dated March 2016, was apparently passed | :30:17. | :30:19. | |
to the Sunday Times by Russian hackers. | :30:20. | :30:22. | |
It appears to allege that Salazar almost certainly broke the rules | :30:23. | :30:25. | |
by giving some of his athletes a performance enhancing substance. | :30:26. | :30:28. | |
He and Mo Farah have always denied breaching anti-doping regulations. | :30:29. | :30:35. | |
Public Health England is calling for a tobacco-free NHS, | :30:36. | :30:38. | |
banning the habit across hospital sites and giving patients | :30:39. | :30:40. | |
Recent statistics show a quarter of people admitted | :30:41. | :30:45. | |
to hospital were recorded as being 'current smokers' but only | :30:46. | :30:48. | |
7% were referred for treatment to help them stop. | :30:49. | :30:52. | |
Smoking on hospital grounds is already banned in Scotland, | :30:53. | :30:54. | |
At least 28 people have been injured in the US city of New Orleans | :30:55. | :31:02. | |
after a suspected drunk driver ploughed his car into a crowd | :31:03. | :31:05. | |
watching the annual Mardi Gras parade. | :31:06. | :31:07. | |
21 people, including children as young as three, | :31:08. | :31:09. | |
Police say the driver was arrested and that terrorism was not | :31:10. | :31:14. | |
German police are waiting to speak to a man who drove his car | :31:15. | :31:21. | |
into a crowd in Heidelberg, killing a 73-year-old man. | :31:22. | :31:24. | |
The driver, who is German, was shot, injured and arrested by police | :31:25. | :31:29. | |
in a brief standoff after fleeing the scene on foot. | :31:30. | :31:34. | |
Final preparations are being made for the Oscars ceremony, | :31:35. | :31:36. | |
which takes place in Hollywood tonight. | :31:37. | :31:38. | |
With 14 nominations, the musical La La Land is expected | :31:39. | :31:44. | |
to be a big winner, but the dramas Moonlight and Manchester by the Sea | :31:45. | :31:48. | |
We will talk about that are to be later. | :31:49. | :31:56. | |
People are being asked not to get too close to a humpback whale, | :31:57. | :31:59. | |
which has been spotted off the coast of South Devon. | :32:00. | :32:02. | |
It's been seen in Start Bay near Slapton, and is believed to be | :32:03. | :32:06. | |
Crowds have been drawn to the area, but the bay is being patrolled | :32:07. | :32:10. | |
Police are warning anyone caught harassing the whale | :32:11. | :32:13. | |
40 humpbacks have been seen off the UK coastline in the past year, | :32:14. | :32:18. | |
Let's talk sport. Good morning. Another great game in the Six | :32:19. | :32:27. | |
Nations yesterday. A fantastic game. Roadsides played | :32:28. | :32:36. | |
really well. Scotland on for the first time against the Welsh in ten | :32:37. | :32:37. | |
years. 29- 13. Played really well. Ireland though are at the top of | :32:38. | :32:40. | |
the Six Nations table this morning. They came from behind to beat | :32:41. | :32:46. | |
France 19-9 in Dublin. But it's that Scotland victory that | :32:47. | :32:49. | |
has grabbed the headlines. Scotland shake up the Six Nations | :32:50. | :32:58. | |
for the second time. At the tournament's crossroads they took | :32:59. | :33:04. | |
the right path. So much hanging over this, for 20 minutes so little | :33:05. | :33:08. | |
ground given, until Wales set off on the open road will stop Liam | :33:09. | :33:12. | |
Williams on the bus lane. Two quick to be stopped by Scotland's | :33:13. | :33:16. | |
barriers. They tried to catch them and then another one. Leigh | :33:17. | :33:24. | |
Halfpenny can kick to the horizon. Consider Russell trumped. 4-0. | :33:25. | :33:28. | |
Scotland flew out after the break. Tommy Seymour for the line. In the | :33:29. | :33:38. | |
city of Trainspotting, try-spotting, was it? Just. Scotland ahead. Then | :33:39. | :33:42. | |
Wales responded. They reached the try line, but the answer was no try. | :33:43. | :33:49. | |
Under the pump Scotland have cracked in the past now pressure power with | :33:50. | :33:58. | |
them. A first Scottish victory over Wales in ten years. 29- 13 and all | :33:59. | :34:04. | |
of this shows Scotland's rugby re-emergence and shows they are real | :34:05. | :34:08. | |
contenders for this year's title. Which of Ireland and France can join | :34:09. | :34:14. | |
them? That was always predicted to be tight. Again for spotting the | :34:15. | :34:18. | |
tightest of places. Jonathan Sexton thrives further out. That in the | :34:19. | :34:23. | |
team to do this. A lovely drop. Vintage. 19- nine it finished. For | :34:24. | :34:31. | |
Ireland and Scotland the title chase is on. | :34:32. | :34:34. | |
Ireland are very good team. We beat Wales and they are very good team | :34:35. | :34:45. | |
too. If we work hard we can win games. | :34:46. | :34:46. | |
Italy took a surprise early lead against England in the women's | :34:47. | :34:49. | |
Six Nations, as Sofia Stefan went over in the fourth minute. | :34:50. | :34:52. | |
But the English pack overwhelmed their opponents. | :34:53. | :34:55. | |
Hooker Vicky Fleetwood scored a hat-trick of almost identical | :34:56. | :34:58. | |
England lead the Six Nations table by four points from Ireland, | :34:59. | :35:02. | |
Chelsea have extended their lead at the top of the Premier League | :35:03. | :35:08. | |
to 11 points after a 3-1 win over Swansea City at Stamford Bridge. | :35:09. | :35:11. | |
Cesc Fabregas marked his 300th Premier League appearance by firing | :35:12. | :35:14. | |
Fernando Llorente equalised before the interval. | :35:15. | :35:22. | |
But after the break, Chelsea swept Swansea aside | :35:23. | :35:24. | |
with goals from Pedro and Diego Costa. | :35:25. | :35:34. | |
The other teams have to play, but for sure for us it is important to | :35:35. | :35:44. | |
look at ourselves and to think to win. Because foreshore it is part of | :35:45. | :35:50. | |
the season and every win is important for us. -- for sure. | :35:51. | :35:52. | |
Elsewhere, Crystal Palace beat Middlesbrough 1-0, | :35:53. | :35:54. | |
to move out of the relegation zone, but Sunderland remain bottom | :35:55. | :35:57. | |
Hull City and Burnley drew 1-1, as did Watford and West Ham. | :35:58. | :36:01. | |
Premier League champions Leicester City have slipped | :36:02. | :36:05. | |
They play Liverpool tomorrow and need to win | :36:06. | :36:08. | |
And striker Jamie Vardy has thanked his former boss | :36:09. | :36:13. | |
Claudio Ranieri for believing in him, and has denied any role | :36:14. | :36:16. | |
Claudio has and always will have my complete respect. | :36:17. | :36:23. | |
He believed in me when many didn't and for that I owe him | :36:24. | :36:27. | |
There is speculation I was involved in his dismissal and this | :36:28. | :36:34. | |
The only thing we are guilty of as a team is underachieving. | :36:35. | :36:39. | |
Celtic have maintained their 24 point lead at the top | :36:40. | :36:43. | |
of the Scottish Premiership with a 2-0 win over Hamilton. | :36:44. | :36:46. | |
Moussa Dembele scored both goals to give the Hoops their 21st league | :36:47. | :36:49. | |
Aberdeen moved nine points clear in the race for second place, | :36:50. | :36:55. | |
Partick Thistle beat a ten-man Hearts. | :36:56. | :37:00. | |
And Kilmarnock got their first away win since October | :37:01. | :37:02. | |
It's the first major cup final of the domestic season in England | :37:03. | :37:07. | |
Manchester United take on Southampton at Wembley | :37:08. | :37:12. | |
Southampton haven't won a major trophy since 1976. | :37:13. | :37:16. | |
Jose Mourihno, has never lost a domestic cup final in England, | :37:17. | :37:24. | |
It would be good for the club and the group and for me, obviously. | :37:25. | :37:33. | |
But, you know, the beginning of my career I was looking more to myself | :37:34. | :37:39. | |
and to my personal achievements, if you can say that. I am in a period | :37:40. | :37:44. | |
where I am more and more a club land. | :37:45. | :37:46. | |
The most important thing is to put in the ground to all of these | :37:47. | :37:55. | |
players that we can win this game this year. It is the best | :37:56. | :38:02. | |
opportunity of course to play again since the European games next | :38:03. | :38:07. | |
season. It is the most important for me. | :38:08. | :38:08. | |
England's one-day cricket captain Eoin Morgan top-scored with 95 | :38:09. | :38:10. | |
as his side eased to a win in the first warm-up game | :38:11. | :38:14. | |
Morgan was joined by Jason Roy, new test captain | :38:15. | :38:17. | |
Joe Root and Ben Stokes in scoring half-centuries, | :38:18. | :38:21. | |
as they beat the Vice Chancellor's 11 by 117 runs. | :38:22. | :38:24. | |
The first ODI of the three-match series is on Friday. | :38:25. | :38:29. | |
Boxing now, and Amir Khan and Manny Pacquiao have confirmed | :38:30. | :38:32. | |
they will take to the ring on April the 23rd. | :38:33. | :38:35. | |
Both fighters made the announcement on social media a few hours ago. | :38:36. | :38:38. | |
No venue has been given for what Khan describes | :38:39. | :38:44. | |
as the "super fight", but Pacquiao has suggested | :38:45. | :38:46. | |
earlier this month it may take place in the United Arab Emirates. | :38:47. | :38:51. | |
Meanwhile, Britain's Gavin McDonnell lost his world super-bantamweight | :38:52. | :38:53. | |
title fight against Mexico's Rey Vargas by majority decision | :38:54. | :38:56. | |
Vargas took an early lead, but McDonnell showed his staying | :38:57. | :39:02. | |
power as he battled back in the final rounds. | :39:03. | :39:05. | |
Victory would have delivered Britain's first simultaneous twin | :39:06. | :39:08. | |
world champions, with Jamie McDonnell already | :39:09. | :39:10. | |
in possession of the WBA bantamweight belt. | :39:11. | :39:15. | |
To rugby league, and the transatlantic adventure | :39:16. | :39:17. | |
of Toronto Wolfpack started with a muddy success, | :39:18. | :39:19. | |
as they reached the fourth round of the Challenge Cup. | :39:20. | :39:27. | |
The full time pros of the Wolfpack, recruited from three continents, | :39:28. | :39:29. | |
were in West Yorkshire to face amateur side Siddal. | :39:30. | :39:40. | |
And this try by Adam Sidlow made a little bit of history | :39:41. | :39:43. | |
with the winning try as the Canadian side won by 14-6. | :39:44. | :39:46. | |
There was a hairy moment for Great Britain's men's four | :39:47. | :39:49. | |
bobsleigh team at the World Championships in Germany. | :39:50. | :39:51. | |
The team crashed out in their second run. | :39:52. | :39:53. | |
They ended up going head first into the wall, | :39:54. | :39:55. | |
They won't feature in the remaining heats, | :39:56. | :40:02. | |
though, because their sled failed to make it | :40:03. | :40:04. | |
Thankfully they where OK. It looks really dodgy. When you do | :40:05. | :40:15. | |
the skeleton, that is the one where you just throw yourself down. | :40:16. | :40:23. | |
As you say, when it turns over they look pretty exposed. | :40:24. | :40:28. | |
You sort of tend to think if they are in a box it is quite well | :40:29. | :40:31. | |
protected. Yes. | :40:32. | :40:34. | |
As soon as it is on its side, there's no hope. | :40:35. | :40:38. | |
Exactly. They were inconsolable. I don't think they thought they had a | :40:39. | :40:43. | |
chance of a medal, necessarily, but they were 13th after the first run | :40:44. | :40:49. | |
and their bobsleigh... They couldn't continue because the bobsleigh | :40:50. | :40:52. | |
finished short of the finish line just by 20 feet. Because they are | :40:53. | :40:59. | |
competitors they weren't thinking about the same thing necessarily, | :41:00. | :41:03. | |
they were thinking about the next run. | :41:04. | :41:05. | |
But thankfully there were a case. And I don't suppose you can just | :41:06. | :41:09. | |
push it over the line. I think that might be cheating! | :41:10. | :41:14. | |
Just checking... Thanks very much. | :41:15. | :41:17. | |
As homes, phones and wearable technology all get smarter, | :41:18. | :41:20. | |
this week the government will announce a multi-million pound | :41:21. | :41:22. | |
investment supporting the development of artificial | :41:23. | :41:24. | |
It's thought this industry contributes billions to the UK's | :41:25. | :41:32. | |
economy, but could it also create unemployment? | :41:33. | :41:35. | |
You got a little bit of a sneak peek of him earlier. | :41:36. | :41:39. | |
Joining us now to discuss this is Noel Sharkey, | :41:40. | :41:45. | |
professor of artificial intelligence and Robotics | :41:46. | :41:47. | |
The huge contribution to the UK economy and I imagine that will just | :41:48. | :41:55. | |
get bigger? Possibly. I don't think they are investing enough to catch | :41:56. | :41:58. | |
up. We've got companies like Google, Facebook and Amazon that are | :41:59. | :42:05. | |
investing billions. We will put ?70 million in the UK robotics, but we | :42:06. | :42:09. | |
have under invested for so long. -- ?17 million. Does the government | :42:10. | :42:14. | |
need to be putting money in, if we've got firms like Facebook and | :42:15. | :42:19. | |
Google that are doing it already? It to boost the UK economy, rather than | :42:20. | :42:23. | |
the US or global economies. We need to boost our economy. But there are | :42:24. | :42:28. | |
problems with it. I think there's a lot of missing from the strategy. | :42:29. | :42:32. | |
Nobody is looking at the societal impact, for instance, or the | :42:33. | :42:36. | |
responsibility. Who will take responsibility for these? And there | :42:37. | :42:41. | |
is little joined up thinking in the strategy. We have all of these AI | :42:42. | :42:44. | |
things coming onboard. Reception is will deliver goods. But nobody is | :42:45. | :42:50. | |
thinking about how they will work together, how it will affect us and | :42:51. | :42:55. | |
our jobs. Increasingly our lives are usually incorporated in with this | :42:56. | :43:00. | |
technology. Can you give us some examples of what we in the UK are | :43:01. | :43:06. | |
good at? We are doing a lot on deliveries at the moment, but it | :43:07. | :43:11. | |
isn't UK people. This is Amazon, who have started trialling in London. | :43:12. | :43:14. | |
They did the first delivery in Cambridge. We have Starship Robotics | :43:15. | :43:24. | |
in Greenwich. But then we've got Deep Line, one of the best AI | :43:25. | :43:28. | |
companies in the world. They are 20 years ahead of the time and they are | :43:29. | :43:32. | |
British but owned by Google. So they aren't really British in that sense. | :43:33. | :43:35. | |
They are part of a global company. Explain this for us. There's | :43:36. | :43:40. | |
probably a tendency for us to lump all of this together, robotics and | :43:41. | :43:45. | |
artificial intelligence. For the under fishy eight it, can you please | :43:46. | :43:49. | |
explain it? One is just computer software. -- uninitiated. Siri, on | :43:50. | :43:58. | |
your phone, that's the AI most people know. People talk about smart | :43:59. | :44:02. | |
machines, but essentially the old-fashioned definition is the | :44:03. | :44:07. | |
science of artificial intelligence is the science that makes machines | :44:08. | :44:12. | |
do things that would require the intelligence of if we did them. It | :44:13. | :44:16. | |
doesn't mean they are intelligence, but they would do things we would | :44:17. | :44:20. | |
normally do. Which I find very irritating. It still isn't that | :44:21. | :44:24. | |
advanced. I would rather speak to a person. So that's AI. Now, the robot | :44:25. | :44:30. | |
is simply a device in the world. Everyone knows what the robot is. | :44:31. | :44:36. | |
You can't really define it. A set of functions, effectively. We spoke | :44:37. | :44:40. | |
about the potential boost to the UK economy. It could mean 600 odd | :44:41. | :44:46. | |
million. By 2035. But of course there is the detrimental impact in | :44:47. | :44:49. | |
terms of the loss of jobs. How do you balance that? I have no idea. | :44:50. | :44:53. | |
There's a lot of discussion about it. You'll Gates was proposing a | :44:54. | :44:59. | |
robot takes, so everyone who is employed by the robot, you takes it | :45:00. | :45:03. | |
as if it's a person. -- Bill Gates. But of course that's not too good | :45:04. | :45:08. | |
because what's a robot? Is a conveyor belt a robot? That replaces | :45:09. | :45:13. | |
100 people. The other thing is universal Basic income, so everyone | :45:14. | :45:17. | |
gets a set amount of money in the country and they lose 50p for every | :45:18. | :45:23. | |
pound. But who sets the level when there's a recession? It is a very | :45:24. | :45:27. | |
worrying thing and I haven't heard a good solution yet. The main thing | :45:28. | :45:31. | |
really is in all of this white controlled -- what control can you | :45:32. | :45:39. | |
see in the machines? Anything that impacts our life, I think humans | :45:40. | :45:43. | |
should be there and there should be a clear chain of responsibility. The | :45:44. | :45:48. | |
EU have just passed a report, in February, with a set of new laws for | :45:49. | :45:52. | |
robotics and we will lose out in this offcourse. Really nice to see | :45:53. | :45:55. | |
you. Thank you. Letters get some weather. Lots of | :45:56. | :46:11. | |
intelligence, none of that artificial. What is it doing today? | :46:12. | :46:16. | |
You do flatter me. Lots going on with the weather. An awful lot to | :46:17. | :46:21. | |
cram into the next two minutes. Let's get started. Today, eastern | :46:22. | :46:25. | |
areas not bearing too badly. But further north-west, windy weather. | :46:26. | :46:33. | |
We actually have a named storm. This lump of cloud has been named storm | :46:34. | :46:38. | |
Ewan, not by the UK Met Office but by the Irish weather service. There | :46:39. | :46:42. | |
are concerns about the impact across the Republic of Ireland. This will | :46:43. | :46:48. | |
not be another storm Doris but we will see wet weather across Northern | :46:49. | :46:52. | |
Ireland, Scotland and north-west England and into Wales and with | :46:53. | :46:57. | |
that, some strong winds. Further east, staying driver a good part of | :46:58. | :47:02. | |
the morning will be some spells of brightness and sunshine. Through the | :47:03. | :47:06. | |
middle part of the day, that is when the wind is going to pick up. 40, 50 | :47:07. | :47:13. | |
miles per hour. Eventually through southern Scotland, we are likely to | :47:14. | :47:18. | |
see 50, 60 miles an hour. Some pretty wet weather as well. The | :47:19. | :47:22. | |
strongest of the gusts will always be over the hills and around the | :47:23. | :47:26. | |
coast. Not a great day to head to the coast. A lot of dry weather. | :47:27. | :47:31. | |
Mild here. Some cold air beginning to tuck in. We will see some snow | :47:32. | :47:35. | |
developing across northern Scotland. A band of rain swings across. Rain | :47:36. | :47:44. | |
and snow across northern Scotland as it picks up across northern Scotland | :47:45. | :47:48. | |
and the Northern Isles. Up to 70 miles an hour with the wind gusts. | :47:49. | :47:52. | |
Some cold air and heavy showers whipping in from the West. There is | :47:53. | :47:56. | |
the risk of some icy stretches to take it into tomorrow morning, | :47:57. | :47:59. | |
particularly across northern and western areas. Have that in mind for | :48:00. | :48:05. | |
the Monday morning commute. A pretty blustery day, particularly in the | :48:06. | :48:09. | |
south. Some spells of sunshine. These showers, heavy with hail and | :48:10. | :48:14. | |
thunder. They could well be wintry as well. If you get a heavy shower, | :48:15. | :48:19. | |
some hail and sleet, even to low levels. A little bit of snow, the | :48:20. | :48:23. | |
temperatures well down on where they have been. 4- eight degrees. Plenty | :48:24. | :48:28. | |
going on with the weather. I will draw breath now one hand you back to | :48:29. | :48:30. | |
Rachel and then. Not a robot inside. We'll be back with | :48:31. | :48:34. | |
the headlines at 7am. From blue screen jungles | :48:35. | :48:36. | |
to strange adventures in time, over the past few weeks we've been | :48:37. | :49:01. | |
exploring some of the best visual effects from the past year and this | :49:02. | :49:05. | |
week is no exception. Directed by Gareth Edwards, | :49:06. | :49:11. | |
the visual genius behind Monsters and Godzilla, Rogue One has earned | :49:12. | :49:14. | |
over $1 billion at the worldwide box office and has, | :49:15. | :49:18. | |
unsurprisingly, been nominated Edwards worked with the team | :49:19. | :49:25. | |
at Industrial Lights and Magic to recreate that galaxy far, | :49:26. | :49:31. | |
far away and, as we found out when we visited their London | :49:32. | :49:35. | |
office, they provided some very cool kit to help facilitate his | :49:36. | :49:37. | |
unique directing style. He likes to walk around his sets | :49:38. | :49:41. | |
and physically pick up the camera himself and walk around and find | :49:42. | :49:47. | |
interesting angles that might not have occurred to him | :49:48. | :49:50. | |
when he was planning out Our vision effects supervisor | :49:51. | :49:54. | |
was keen that he could apply the same style of filming | :49:55. | :50:01. | |
to the synthetic cameras, so we used a real-time | :50:02. | :50:05. | |
virtual reality system, and therefore he can show us | :50:06. | :50:08. | |
rather than explain to us. And this is it? | :50:09. | :50:13. | |
This is it. This is what we call | :50:14. | :50:15. | |
our VCam Renderer. Can I just point out, | :50:16. | :50:18. | |
it's an iPad with a Vive controller And we can set it up | :50:19. | :50:23. | |
relatively easily and quickly. And is this where he did these | :50:24. | :50:30. | |
scenes, in this room? This is where he shot his | :50:31. | :50:33. | |
virtual camera work. So this is a scene | :50:34. | :50:36. | |
that was actually set up for a trailer, the first trailer, | :50:37. | :50:38. | |
that we did for Rogue One. You have this scene running | :50:39. | :50:42. | |
and he would just walk around and decide on his best angles | :50:43. | :50:45. | |
and then after that you would tidy The idea wasn't that he would be | :50:46. | :50:48. | |
getting perfectly smooth, composed camera moves, | :50:49. | :50:53. | |
but he was able to sort of show to us, the beginning of the shot, | :50:54. | :50:56. | |
I want it here, the end of the shot, We could then publish this | :50:57. | :51:00. | |
through our pipeline software, and then it could be immediately | :51:01. | :51:05. | |
picked up by animators We shot this with Gareth in London, | :51:06. | :51:09. | |
we then pushed it into our pipeline, it was then picked up by people | :51:10. | :51:16. | |
in San Francisco and the take was ready for him to | :51:17. | :51:22. | |
review the next morning. May I have a go? | :51:23. | :51:24. | |
Absolutely. So the animation in this scene | :51:25. | :51:26. | |
is the dish of the Death Star. Oh, look, you can | :51:27. | :51:31. | |
see behind the dish! So I can get a different shot | :51:32. | :51:33. | |
to Gareth if I wanted? If I find a better | :51:34. | :51:38. | |
shot, do I get a job? It's the dish going | :51:39. | :51:45. | |
to the Death Star. So, here, we're following X-Wing | :51:46. | :52:11. | |
as it makes its approach run We can just move around and frame up | :52:12. | :52:14. | |
on camera moves and follow the ship This film is set near minutes before | :52:15. | :52:19. | |
the very first film, and so getting these computer | :52:20. | :52:24. | |
generated models to look exactly like the physical models | :52:25. | :52:27. | |
from 1977 was, I guess, Our friends and colleagues | :52:28. | :52:32. | |
in San Francisco took digital scans of the original models | :52:33. | :52:39. | |
from the art department, and they had lots of texture | :52:40. | :52:42. | |
references, and thankfully just recreated them so that | :52:43. | :52:46. | |
there wouldn't be any jarring differences between these | :52:47. | :52:52. | |
ships and the ships in New Hope. We have teams of people | :52:53. | :53:01. | |
who are responsible for laying out camera moves, we have teams | :53:02. | :53:05. | |
of people who are building digital We've got a fantastic team | :53:06. | :53:10. | |
of animators and then we've got a great team of compositors, | :53:11. | :53:16. | |
who take all of the renders that we generate and put it | :53:17. | :53:19. | |
all together with the footage and integrate it into hopefully | :53:20. | :53:22. | |
photorealistic results. So this model here, of Jedha, | :53:23. | :53:26. | |
is that completely full detail, so you can move the | :53:27. | :53:32. | |
camera to anywhere? We had a camera that rotated around | :53:33. | :53:37. | |
on its own axis and we moved it randomly around the city and ended | :53:38. | :53:42. | |
up with hundreds of views. So many of them were just | :53:43. | :53:45. | |
fascinating in what they ended up Because typically, if you're | :53:46. | :53:49. | |
given a shot to lay out, you'll start dressing | :53:50. | :53:56. | |
everything to the camera. So you'll start laying out buildings | :53:57. | :53:58. | |
that stack away from the camera and, typically with lighting, | :53:59. | :54:02. | |
you would start with back lighting at three quarters, | :54:03. | :54:04. | |
from one direction. But what we found was that, | :54:05. | :54:06. | |
because none of those considerations have been taken, you just end up | :54:07. | :54:09. | |
with occasionally finding views that are so natural, | :54:10. | :54:12. | |
so the lighting might just be illuminating one half | :54:13. | :54:14. | |
of a wall in the background, for example, or none of the roads | :54:15. | :54:17. | |
are perpendicular to the camera and they're all going | :54:18. | :54:20. | |
off at weird angles. So that was really successful | :54:21. | :54:24. | |
and we ended up using a lot of those views as the background in a lot | :54:25. | :54:28. | |
of our blue screen shoots. Hello and welcome | :54:29. | :54:34. | |
to the Week In Tech. It was the week that Uber found | :54:35. | :54:45. | |
itself under fire after a former employee accused the company | :54:46. | :54:49. | |
of sexual harassment in a blog post. Uber responded, saying it | :54:50. | :54:52. | |
would conduct an urgent investigation into the claims | :54:53. | :54:56. | |
which it called abhorrent and against everything Uber stands | :54:57. | :54:58. | |
for and believes in. It was also the week that YouTube | :54:59. | :55:05. | |
announced it would get rid Scientists at MIT showed off | :55:06. | :55:08. | |
a special coating making it easier And astronomers have detected seven | :55:09. | :55:12. | |
Earth-sized planets orbiting And, yes, before you ask, | :55:13. | :55:18. | |
three of them may have conditions And finally, researchers | :55:19. | :55:27. | |
at Brigham Young University have shown off an origami-inspired light | :55:28. | :55:30. | |
weight bullet-proof shield. The barrier is made up of 12 layers | :55:31. | :55:32. | |
of bullet-proof Kevlar and weighs How many faces can you | :55:33. | :55:35. | |
see in this picture? This is a persistence | :55:36. | :55:59. | |
of vision display. You can only see it when your eyes, | :56:00. | :56:09. | |
or in our case the camera, We've slowed right down | :56:10. | :56:15. | |
so you can really feast on... So, a persistence of vision display | :56:16. | :56:20. | |
is predicated upon the persistence of vision phenomenon, | :56:21. | :56:26. | |
which is an effect in the human eye. And it's the effect where | :56:27. | :56:29. | |
when you look at any bright light and you look away you see a ghost | :56:30. | :56:32. | |
of that bright light for a moment. So what happens is our display takes | :56:33. | :56:38. | |
a standard two-dimensional image and it breaks it up into vertical | :56:39. | :56:41. | |
columns of pixel data. This single vertical line of light | :56:42. | :56:46. | |
blinks out each column sequentially, so column one, two, three, | :56:47. | :56:49. | |
until it gets to the end So as your eye looks | :56:50. | :56:52. | |
away from the display, it prints each column in your retina | :56:53. | :57:01. | |
in a different location and the whole image | :57:02. | :57:04. | |
is reassembled in your eye. Moving strips of super fast flashing | :57:05. | :57:09. | |
LEDs have painted pictures or text in the air for a couple of decades | :57:10. | :57:13. | |
now, but Lightvert relies on our eyes to do | :57:14. | :57:16. | |
the moving instead. Something they are naturally | :57:17. | :57:18. | |
doing all the time. We've created a new type | :57:19. | :57:20. | |
of projection technique for creating persistence of vision displays | :57:21. | :57:25. | |
and we patented that globally and what that lets us do | :57:26. | :57:28. | |
is scale up the size So, with LEDs and other light | :57:29. | :57:31. | |
sources, it becomes challenging to create a display that's more | :57:32. | :57:37. | |
than say three metres tall. But with our Echo technology we can | :57:38. | :57:40. | |
create a display that's up to 300 metres tall, effectively turning | :57:41. | :57:44. | |
entire skyscrapers into the world's And that's why if you've been | :57:45. | :57:46. | |
walking down a particular street in Berlin last Monday, | :57:47. | :57:50. | |
you might have seen my face out Do you think this is too distracting | :57:51. | :57:54. | |
for drivers, for example? It's very important | :57:55. | :58:07. | |
that we introduce it in the right way and it's not going to be | :58:08. | :58:14. | |
for every location. I certainly wouldn't | :58:15. | :58:17. | |
want to introduce this medium next We need people to understand it and, | :58:18. | :58:20. | |
much like when LED billboards first came into the public realm, | :58:21. | :58:26. | |
they were very distracting and there was legislation instantly | :58:27. | :58:28. | |
put in place in order to prevent We're going to have | :58:29. | :58:31. | |
to travel a similar path. And that's not the only eye-catching | :58:32. | :58:35. | |
projection I've seen this week. Ahead of next week's | :58:36. | :58:39. | |
Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, I've also managed to get a sneak | :58:40. | :58:42. | |
preview of the future It's the latest version | :58:43. | :58:45. | |
of Sony's Xperia projector. It's an android-based device that | :58:46. | :58:51. | |
throws a touch sensitive display It has all the touchscreen | :58:52. | :58:54. | |
functionality of a tablet, including pinch and zoom, | :58:55. | :59:05. | |
with your finger's positions being watched by a camera under | :59:06. | :59:14. | |
the projector and a row of infrared sensors at table level to detect | :59:15. | :59:18. | |
when you've actually We are heading towards a world | :59:19. | :59:22. | |
where our devices will be so small that we won't want a screen | :59:23. | :59:29. | |
or a keyboard or any kind of input device attached to | :59:30. | :59:33. | |
them and I see this You just have a display | :59:34. | :59:35. | |
when you want it, on whatever That's it for the shortcut | :59:36. | :59:40. | |
of Click this week. The full version is on iPlayer right | :59:41. | :59:43. | |
now and we also live Thanks for watching | :59:44. | :59:46. | |

he takes his share of responsibility for the party's defeat | :01:55. | :02:04. | |
in the Copeland by election. he says Labour has not done enough | :02:05. | :02:06. | |
to rebuild trust with people who don't feel the party | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
represents them. But he does insist he will continue | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
in his role as Labour leader, as our political correspondent | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
Carole Walker reports. Jeremy Corbyn is again making it | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
clear he is not standing down and there will be no | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
change of direction. He was in Stoke last week | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
when Labour saw off the challenge from Ukip to hold onto the seat, | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
but he says his party's defeat in Copeland was deeply | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
disappointing and he takes his The Tories claimed their victory | :02:38. | :02:40. | |

against the government Writing in the Mail on Sunday, | :03:41. | :03:42. | |
the senior peer said he would support an amendment | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
to the Article 50 legislation so that Parliament can have | :03:47. | :03:48. | |
what he describes as a meaningful Our political correspondent | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
Tom Barton joins us from our London What exactly is Lord Heseltine | :03:52. | :04:08. | |
after? Tory grandees don't come much more grand than Lord Heseltine. He | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
held five different Cabinet positions with both Margaret | :04:14. | :04:19. | |
Thatcher and John Major. He has now appeared in House of Lords and he | :04:20. | :04:22. | |
says he could defy Theresa May and back an amendment which would give | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
Parliament the final say over Brexit negotiations. Now, he did campaign | :04:27. | :04:32. | |
for Remain in the referendum. He does insist that he isn't heading | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
for a confrontation with the government, instead he wants to make | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
sure that Parliament can exercise what he calls its proper oath or | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
itchy over the issue -- proper authority. He says that could mean | :04:45. | :04:52. | |
he defies a three line whip. The Brexited minister in the House of | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
Lords, Lord Bridges, has appealed for years not to amend this | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
legislation, as Lord Heseltine is talking about doing. He warned them | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
that doing anything to tie the prime ministers's hands in the | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
negotiations would be wrong. Thank you very much. | :05:10. | :05:10. | |
A leaked report has suggested that Mo Farah's coach Alberto Salazar may | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
have broken anti-doping rules to boost the performance | :05:15. | :05:16. | |
The document from the US Anti Doping Agency, | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
which is dated March 2016, was apparently passed | :05:21. | :05:22. | |
to the Sunday Times by Russian hackers. | :05:23. | :05:30. | |
It appears to allege that Salazar almost certainly broke the rules | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
by giving some of his athletes a performance enhancing substance. | :05:34. | :05:35. | |
He and Mo Farah have always denied breaching anti-doping regulations. | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
Iraqi forces are continuing their advancement into western Mosul | :05:39. | :05:40. | |
in an attempt to remove the so called Islamic State | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
Our correspondent Wyre Davies has been to an advanced Iraqi military | :05:44. | :05:52. | |
base, where American troops and advisers are proving a key part | :05:53. | :05:55. | |
We know that troops captured the airport on Thursday. Ring us | :05:56. | :06:07. | |
up-to-date with current progress. There is progress on the ground, but | :06:08. | :06:14. | |
it is incredibly slow, despite the American help in terms of artillery | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
and their support. The reality is that now the Iraqi troops have got | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
into the western part of the city, they are meeting stiff resistance. | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
There are about 750,000 civilians inside the city. They have tried to | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
escape and will do over the coming days. It will have to be careful | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
when they attacked us of the city, so the civilian population isn't | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
affected. The other problem I've seen over the past couple of days is | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
this use of devices, explosives, left in houses and buildings, under | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
the road. There this tactic of small, commercially available drones | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
being used to drop bombs and grenades onto civilians and troops. | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
A colleague who has been on the front line described to me that it | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
was raining bombs. 30 or 40 of these drawings are seeing in the air at | :07:03. | :07:05. | |
any one time. Hard to see from ground level, but dropping small | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
bombs, which can injure and certainly have killed people in the | :07:11. | :07:13. | |
past. So there's a lot of danger, with heavily armed troops, and of | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
course the even greater concern of all of these civilians having to be | :07:18. | :07:25. | |
evacuated and cared for because many of Islamic State militants will be | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
hiding inside the houses and firing from there. Thank you for now, Wyre. | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
Public Health England is calling for a tobacco-free NHS, | :07:33. | :07:34. | |
banning the habit across hospital sites and giving patients | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
Recent statistics show a quarter of people admitted to hospital | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
were recorded as being 'current smokers' but only seven percent | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
were referred for treatment to help them stop. | :07:46. | :07:47. | |
Smoking on hospital grounds is already banned in Scotland, | :07:48. | :07:49. | |
At least 28 people have been injured in the US city of New Orleans | :07:50. | :07:58. | |
after a suspected drunk driver ploughed his car into a crowd | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
watching the annual Mardi Gras parade. | :08:02. | :08:03. | |
21 people, including children as young as three, | :08:04. | :08:05. | |
Police say the driver was arrested and that terrorism | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
A ?17 million investment for Britain's artificial | :08:10. | :08:17. | |
intelligence and robotics industries has been announced | :08:18. | :08:19. | |
It's thought the sector could add billions of pounds to the UK economy | :08:20. | :08:26. | |
by 2035, as our business correspondent Joe Lynam reports. | :08:27. | :08:32. | |
There may well be a time when robots like this are accepted as part | :08:33. | :08:35. | |
As gentle as lambs, but chores like babysitting | :08:36. | :08:43. | |
and with the strength for more ominous services. | :08:44. | :08:45. | |
Artificial intelligence used to be the preserve of science | :08:46. | :08:47. | |
fiction, but AI is coming and the government thinks Britain | :08:48. | :08:50. | |
Artificial intelligence is when machines imitate | :08:51. | :08:57. | |
human behaviour and where robots can be trained to take important | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
decisions without being ordered to do so by humans. | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
I'm a sophisticated combination of hardware and software... | :09:04. | :09:06. | |
The Department of Culture, Media and Sport believes AI could be | :09:07. | :09:12. | |
worth an additional ?654 billion to the UK | :09:13. | :09:15. | |
Before that, though, the government will spend ?17 | :09:16. | :09:21. | |
million on AI research, including into surgical | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
micro-robotics, as well as robots capable of operating | :09:27. | :09:28. | |
Some may worry, though, that self thinking computers | :09:29. | :09:32. | |
Others say that this will happen anyway and it's best that the UK | :09:33. | :09:37. | |
economy benefits from it rather than losing out. | :09:38. | :09:45. | |
The search for an 18-year-old man reported to have fallen off | :09:46. | :09:47. | |
Arbroath Cliff in Angus will resume this morning. | :09:48. | :09:50. | |
The emergency services were alerted yesterday lunchtime, | :09:51. | :09:52. | |
but an operation including a helicopter, lifeboat and land | :09:53. | :09:54. | |
based rescuers, failed to find the missing teenager. | :09:55. | :09:58. | |
Police in Malaysia have declared Kuala Lumpur airport, | :09:59. | :10:01. | |
where the half brother of North Korea's leader was killed | :10:02. | :10:03. | |
with a nerve agent 12 days ago, to be safe. | :10:04. | :10:09. | |

Final preparations are being made for the Oscars ceremony, | :10:15. | :10:22. | |
which takes place in Hollywood tonight. | :10:23. | :10:25. | |
With 14 nominations, the musical La La Land is expected | :10:26. | :10:27. | |
to be a big winner, but the dramas Moonlight and Manchester By The Sea | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
A pregnant giraffe in New York has become an unlikely YouTube sensation | :10:32. | :10:41. | |
after zookeepers began live streaming her labour. | :10:42. | :10:47. | |
She's expecting her fourth calf and has more than 30 million | :10:48. | :10:57. | |
She gained even more fans when the video was taken down, | :10:58. | :11:02. | |
after animal rights extremists complained it was a violation | :11:03. | :11:05. | |
of its nudity and sexual content policy. | :11:06. | :11:07. | |
Massive interest on this. Let's go to the live pictures. That's April | :11:08. | :11:15. | |
right now. She looks like she's having a rest and she looks like | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
she's pretty fed up with the whole thing! | :11:20. | :11:22. | |
Clearly nothing much happening at the moment. If something does | :11:23. | :11:27. | |
happen, obviously we will bring you news of that when it comes. But | :11:28. | :11:31. | |
that's the picture, live from New York this morning. | :11:32. | :11:36. | |
They always say, rest when you can during labour. That's clearly what | :11:37. | :11:40. | |
she is doing! More from New York and April later. | :11:41. | :11:47. | |
And we will of course talk about the Oscars. A big night in Hollywood. We | :11:48. | :11:51. | |
will be discussing it before the ceremony later. | :11:52. | :11:53. | |
Banning smoking outside hospitals and handing out nicotine patches | :11:54. | :11:55. | |
are just a couple of plans by Public Health England to get | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
The ideas are part of its tobacco-free NHS campaign. | :11:59. | :12:04. | |
Joining us now from our London newsroom is the chief executive | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
of Public Health England, Duncan Selbie. | :12:08. | :12:10. | |
Good morning. Angie for your time. Too many people this would seem | :12:11. | :12:20. | |
obvious. The obvious step to try to discourage people from smoking. I | :12:21. | :12:24. | |
know in parts of the country it is already banned. Why is it still | :12:25. | :12:29. | |
happening outside some hospitals? Good morning. It is perhaps a | :12:30. | :12:41. | |
surprise to know that at any point one in four in patients in hospital | :12:42. | :12:44. | |
smoke. Although the numbers of smokers is at an all-time low, the | :12:45. | :12:50. | |
opportunity when you are in a hospital to have that conversation | :12:51. | :12:55. | |
about how to help you quit is really there to be taken. Given that we | :12:56. | :13:02. | |
know that most people want to quit, when you are in a hospital to have | :13:03. | :13:10. | |
that conversation would make a huge difference. People have been in | :13:11. | :13:13. | |
touch saying one of the things about being in hospital, visiting | :13:14. | :13:16. | |
relatives, is walking through this wall of smoke at the entrance areas. | :13:17. | :13:24. | |
Is this not been possibly enforced? Should they not have people out and | :13:25. | :13:27. | |
about saying, you can't smoke in this area? Obviously we would prefer | :13:28. | :13:34. | |
that didn't happen. Until recently that was the hospital chief | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
executive. -- I was. I know how difficult that is. There are places | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
that are managing to have that conversation and obviously we would | :13:43. | :13:48. | |
like everybody to be doing more, but our interest is really about how we | :13:49. | :13:52. | |
can get help to people who want to quit. For the individual, the | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
consequences can be devastating. One in two will die early and will have | :13:58. | :14:03. | |
tobacco related illness for many years. For the NHS itself that's | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
almost 500,000 in admissions each year. Costs are enormous. So both | :14:08. | :14:13. | |
for the individual and the NHS, this opportunity, when you are actually | :14:14. | :14:18. | |
in the NHS, when a doctor or therapist says to you, do you smoke? | :14:19. | :14:23. | |
There is help we can get you for this, we need to take that | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
opportunity. So it is an issue about the NHS looking like it doesn't | :14:28. | :14:33. | |
promote smoking. So having people smoking outside the buildings. | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
That's not something we are keen on. We are asking people to pay | :14:38. | :14:40. | |
attention to that. But that's not the real issue. I understand that. | :14:41. | :14:46. | |
You are saying there needs to be the support, it was this is an access | :14:47. | :14:49. | |
point for help, for people to get is. Smoking help. -- get stopped | :14:50. | :14:56. | |
smoking. It is a stressful time in hospital and smoking is an acute | :14:57. | :15:00. | |
addiction and you can't just push people off a cliff edge and deprive | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
them of cigarettes like that, can you? We have no intention. This | :15:05. | :15:09. | |
isn't about forcing people, this is about helping people. Seven out of | :15:10. | :15:14. | |
ten want to quit, so it is the chance when they are in hospital to | :15:15. | :15:17. | |
get them in touch with people who can help and we know that if you get | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
that help you are four times more likely to quit forever and the NHS | :15:23. | :15:25. | |
is full of stories of hospitals that are giving practical help and | :15:26. | :15:30. | |
advice. What we want is to see that more universal. We want to see that | :15:31. | :15:32. | |
spread everywhere. Many thanks. Keep your comments coming in | :15:33. | :15:43. | |
stopping this person says, are we going to ban eating pies and chips? | :15:44. | :15:50. | |
And this person says one of the only things you get to help with relief | :15:51. | :16:00. | |
in the hospital is smoking. There is a lot going on in the weather. There | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
is. Turbulent times in terms of weather. The good news. Some | :16:06. | :16:10. | |
brightness out there this morning. This picture from one of our Weather | :16:11. | :16:20. | |
Watchers in the West Midlands. This is not the whole story. Wet and | :16:21. | :16:28. | |
windy. Another named storm. Storm Ewan. Named by the Irish Met | :16:29. | :16:38. | |
Service. That is because of the impact they expect in Ireland. | :16:39. | :16:41. | |
Things are not looking that bad here. But still some wet weather in | :16:42. | :16:47. | |
the north and west of England. That, increasingly strong winds through | :16:48. | :16:53. | |
the Irish Sea. In the Midlands to East England, brightness. That is | :16:54. | :17:00. | |
for a time before things cloud over. Through this afternoon around the | :17:01. | :17:05. | |
coast of south-west England, 50-60 miles per hour with the wind. A | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
similar story in north-west England. Northern Ireland as well and also | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
southern Scotland. Not a great aid to head to the coast and walk over | :17:17. | :17:22. | |
the hills, I have to say. -- day. The rain will snow in Scotland later | :17:23. | :17:29. | |
on. Cold air will take over. Mildest in the south-east. Rain overnight | :17:30. | :17:34. | |
here tending to fizzle away. Some cold air and hefty showers. Windy in | :17:35. | :17:41. | |
the far north of Scotland for a while, 50-60 miles per hour. Not | :17:42. | :17:47. | |
unusual for that part of the world. Temperatures dipping away overnight. | :17:48. | :17:52. | |
Cold air. Icy stretches tomorrow morning. Tomorrow, I seek you start. | :17:53. | :17:58. | |
Blustery winds especially in southern areas. -- icy to start. | :17:59. | :18:04. | |
Showers packing in from the West. Some heavy with hail and fund it. If | :18:05. | :18:11. | |
you get a heavy shower, sleet and snow. Lower levels, temperatures are | :18:12. | :18:18. | |
lower than they have been. 4-8 degrees. A lot going on with the | :18:19. | :18:21. | |
weather. A lot to keep track of. Nazi Germany's bombing campaign | :18:22. | :18:28. | |
against Britain in World War Two lasted for eight months | :18:29. | :18:31. | |
and killed 43,000 people. But despite the heavy bombardment, | :18:32. | :18:33. | |
two police officers managed to document the devastation | :18:34. | :18:36. | |
through a series of photographs. Now, those rarely-seen images | :18:37. | :18:38. | |
are going on display Our reporter, Caroline Davies, | :18:39. | :18:40. | |
has been to see them. Here again are the same firefighters | :18:41. | :18:51. | |
who face peril in danger with courage. London during The Blitz. A | :18:52. | :18:58. | |
newsreel showing resilience and There wasn't. The Museum of London | :18:59. | :19:05. | |
exhibition shows a different side. Some photographs, and some | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
unexpected contributors. Two city policemen. They were recording the | :19:11. | :19:15. | |
damage to the city. Partially with the name of recording it so they | :19:16. | :19:18. | |
could think about reconstruction afterwards. It is not known if these | :19:19. | :19:23. | |
images were ever used to help rebuild. The destruction was | :19:24. | :19:28. | |
potentially too great. London. What colossal strength runs through her | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
veins. Even today, many of the images we usually see of The Blitz | :19:33. | :19:39. | |
were recorded as propaganda. But these images were never meant to be | :19:40. | :19:42. | |
seen by the public. A coat still hanging on the back of the door. | :19:43. | :19:48. | |
Less defined, more private. Bookcases rip apart. London did | :19:49. | :19:59. | |
rebuild after the Blitz. What is striking about these photographs is | :20:00. | :20:04. | |
that they show a city so familiar destroyed in a way that none of us | :20:05. | :20:07. | |
have ever experienced. You cannot help but look at the images of the | :20:08. | :20:13. | |
bombed cities without thinking about current political events. It is | :20:14. | :20:17. | |
inevitable, I think. This new exhibition shows a city destroyed by | :20:18. | :20:25. | |
war, this time, without the fanfare. Caroline Davies, BBC News. | :20:26. | :20:27. | |
You're watching Breakfast from BBC News. | :20:28. | :20:29. | |
Time now for a look at the newspapers. | :20:30. | :20:36. | |
Good morning. We will dive straight in. The Mirror. Schools. Page four. | :20:37. | :20:54. | |
Schools in crisis over ?2.5 billion of Tory cuts. I pulled this one out | :20:55. | :21:00. | |
because it brings attention to the amount of funding crisis there is in | :21:01. | :21:08. | |
schools. I used to teach, three years in FE, further education. I | :21:09. | :21:11. | |
can vouch for this important. We have a per capita cut in schools. It | :21:12. | :21:18. | |
is really important, I think, that we do not cut funding in the way | :21:19. | :21:23. | |
that we are doing. I mean, some statistics. Half a million children | :21:24. | :21:28. | |
in class sizes of more than 30. 50,000 teachers left teaching last | :21:29. | :21:34. | |
year. I mean, I left teaching for that reason. The first wave of | :21:35. | :21:40. | |
austerity and cuts just a few years ago. How does that manifest itself | :21:41. | :21:44. | |
in the classroom when you talk about big class sizes? What does it mean | :21:45. | :21:53. | |
for your job? When I say it went for me having 15 in an A level standard | :21:54. | :21:58. | |
course to 25- 30, you cannot give the students the attention that they | :21:59. | :22:03. | |
need. When they have problems, you literally cannot help with crowd | :22:04. | :22:06. | |
control and just trying to keep ahead of the plan. If we want good | :22:07. | :22:17. | |
education for our children, we have to deal with this. We have to be | :22:18. | :22:20. | |
cautious. We have seen major investment in schools in recent | :22:21. | :22:25. | |
years. The government, if they were here, would say we are putting | :22:26. | :22:30. | |
millions in and training new teachers, and building new schools. | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
Something is going right. I am biased based on my personal | :22:35. | :22:40. | |
experiences. Yes, I would. I mean, I went to a competitive schools. And I | :22:41. | :22:45. | |
am... I am a believer in that. I am that way inclined. And I kind of, I | :22:46. | :22:55. | |
find free school things a little bit hard. My bias would go towards | :22:56. | :22:59. | |
trying to lift the whole standard of comet yeah, of comprehensive | :23:00. | :23:09. | |
schools. -- of, yeah, of. The Observer. A freeze many people are | :23:10. | :23:21. | |
not aware of. They can use. -- phrase. -- fake news. He you really | :23:22. | :23:24. | |
think people aren't aware of it? Donald Trump is bringing attention | :23:25. | :23:30. | |
to fake news. We had a fact checking organisation on Breakfast the other | :23:31. | :23:35. | |
day. He mentions other fact checking agencies. He talks about the | :23:36. | :23:40. | |
importance of, when you look at the news, check that it is based on | :23:41. | :23:47. | |
fact. Fake news, what is the difference between that and news | :23:48. | :23:51. | |
that is real and may be misrepresent the facts but gets statistics and | :23:52. | :23:59. | |
things wrong. Here are some headlines. Nine out of ten nuns are | :24:00. | :24:25. | |
pregnant after giving shelter to immigrant, scientists say women are | :24:26. | :24:28. | |
mammals, not humans, and a man fell off a bridge after playing Pokemon | :24:29. | :24:32. | |
Go. These were shared on social media. I would have believed the | :24:33. | :24:35. | |
last one. Fake news keeps you guessing. You never know what to | :24:36. | :24:39. | |
believe. It is hard to know. Especially with the Internet. So | :24:40. | :24:43. | |
many of us get our news on line. Facebook is increasing in how we use | :24:44. | :24:50. | |
it to get our news. It is really difficult. A really difficult story. | :24:51. | :24:57. | |
A human story. Yes. This is looking at Jane McCann, meeting the parents | :24:58. | :25:05. | |
of Hannah Cross, who died at the age of 13 after five visit to her | :25:06. | :25:13. | |
doctors. -- visits. This touches me in several levels. The family have | :25:14. | :25:20. | |
been inspired to fund raise and to do something positive about this | :25:21. | :25:24. | |
very rare cancer. I was diagnosed with a brain tumour ten years ago | :25:25. | :25:31. | |
now. Wow! And I know that at the time that inspired me to do | :25:32. | :25:35. | |
fundraising and to use it as something positive. And so it is... | :25:36. | :25:41. | |
It is... It is great to see that. It is really therapeutic. And the fact | :25:42. | :25:47. | |
they visited the GP so many times. It is such a rare condition. Having | :25:48. | :25:55. | |
been a doctor, I know that missed diagnoses always happen. You cannot | :25:56. | :26:03. | |
always point the blame at GPs. They have ten minute appointments on | :26:04. | :26:07. | |
average, the lowest we think in developed nations. And so I think | :26:08. | :26:15. | |
that you do have to... If something isn't right, you have to keep going | :26:16. | :26:20. | |
and understand that they are under a lot of pressure and they may not get | :26:21. | :26:24. | |
it the first time every time. We will talk more about that next time. | :26:25. | :26:31. | |
But for now, Stuart, it is nice to see you. Thank you. | :26:32. | :26:32. | |
The Andrew Marr programme is on BBC One at 9 o'clock. | :26:33. | :26:35. | |
What have you got coming up today Andrew? | :26:36. | :26:37. | |
It is the relative calm after the by-election storms. I have Jeremy | :26:38. | :26:44. | |

Copeland and what happened in Stoke-on-Trent were UKIP failed to | :26:49. | :26:58. | |
keep that sit. And the Tories have a triumphant mood saying they are the | :26:59. | :27:02. | |
working class party. I will talk to Patrick McLoughlin. I will talk to | :27:03. | :27:09. | |
Hugh Jackman, better known as Wolverine, talking about the last of | :27:10. | :27:21. | |

Could blackbirds help beat the blues? | :27:24. | :27:27. | |
As scientists say being able to see birds can help promote good mental | :27:28. | :27:30. | |

This is Breakfast, with Ben Thompson and Rachel Burden. | :27:34. | :28:39. | |
Coming up before 8am, Ben will have the weather. | :28:40. | :28:45. | |
It's a real mixed day. Stay tuned for that. | :28:46. | :28:48. | |
But first, a summary of this morning's main news. | :28:49. | :28:50. | |
Jeremy Corbyn says he takes his share of responsibility for Labour's | :28:51. | :28:53. | |
defeat in last Thursday's by-election in Copeland. | :28:54. | :28:55. | |
he says the party has not done enough to rebuild trust with people | :28:56. | :29:00. | |
Mr Corbyn also reiterated his determination to stay on as leader | :29:01. | :29:07. | |
The Conservative former Deputy Prime Minister, | :29:08. | :29:13. | |
Lord Heseltine, has said he will rebel against the government | :29:14. | :29:15. | |
Writing in the Mail on Sunday, the senior peer said | :29:16. | :29:20. | |
he would support an amendment to the Article 50 legislation | :29:21. | :29:23. | |
so that Parliament can have what he describes as a meaningful | :29:24. | :29:26. | |
A leaked report has suggested that Mo Farah's coach Alberto Salazar may | :29:27. | :29:33. | |
have broken anti-doping rules to boost the performance | :29:34. | :29:35. | |
The document from the US Anti Doping Agency, | :29:36. | :29:41. | |
which is dated March 2016, was apparently passed | :29:42. | :29:44. | |
to the Sunday Times by Russian hackers. | :29:45. | :29:48. | |
It appears to allege that Salazar almost certainly broke the rules | :29:49. | :29:51. | |
by giving some of his athletes a performance enhancing substance. | :29:52. | :29:53. | |
He and Mo Farah have always denied breaching anti-doping regulations. | :29:54. | :30:00. | |
Public Health England is calling for a tobacco-free NHS, | :30:01. | :30:03. | |
banning the habit across hospital sites and giving patients | :30:04. | :30:06. | |
Recent statistics show a quarter of people admitted | :30:07. | :30:11. | |
to hospital were recorded as being 'current smokers' but only | :30:12. | :30:13. | |
7% were referred for treatment to help them stop. | :30:14. | :30:16. | |
Smoking on hospital grounds is already banned in Scotland, | :30:17. | :30:18. | |
Speaking earlier On Breakfast, the chief executive of Public Health | :30:19. | :30:33. | |
England told us this. This isn't about forcing people, this is about | :30:34. | :30:38. | |
helping people. Seven out of ten people say they want to quit, so | :30:39. | :30:42. | |
with his chance when they are in the hospital to get them in touch with | :30:43. | :30:46. | |
people who can help and we know that if you get that help you are four | :30:47. | :30:48. | |
times more likely to quit forever. At least 28 people have been injured | :30:49. | :30:50. | |
in the US city of New Orleans after a suspected drunk driver | :30:51. | :30:54. | |
ploughed his car into a crowd watching the annual | :30:55. | :30:57. | |
Mardi Gras parade. 21 people, including | :30:58. | :30:58. | |
children as young as three, Police say the driver was arrested | :30:59. | :31:01. | |
and that terrorism was not Final preparations are being made | :31:02. | :31:04. | |
for the Oscars ceremony, which takes place | :31:05. | :31:09. | |
in Hollywood tonight. With 14 nominations, | :31:10. | :31:12. | |
the musical La La Land is expected to be a big winner, | :31:13. | :31:15. | |
but the dramas Moonlight, and Manchester By The Sea, | :31:16. | :31:18. | |
are also tipped to do well. You still haven't seen la la land! I | :31:19. | :31:33. | |
haven't. I did see Lion last night. And of course I've seen Jackie as | :31:34. | :31:38. | |
well. We will discuss those later. We will | :31:39. | :31:41. | |
talk to somebody who doesn't like la la land. Brilliant Six Nations | :31:42. | :31:45. | |
yesterday. It was. That's them celebrating one of | :31:46. | :31:54. | |
Scotland's two tries. It was historic. The first time they have | :31:55. | :32:00. | |
beaten Wales in ten years. An excellent victory for Scotland. | :32:01. | :32:04. | |
Ireland are at the top of the Six Nations table this morning. | :32:05. | :32:06. | |
They came from behind to beat France 19-9 in Dublin. | :32:07. | :32:08. | |
But it's that Scotland victory that has grabbed the headlines. | :32:09. | :32:11. | |
Scotland shake up the Six Nations for the second time. | :32:12. | :32:15. | |
At the tournament's crossroads they took the right path. | :32:16. | :32:17. | |
So much hanging over this, for 20 minutes so little | :32:18. | :32:20. | |
ground given, until Wales set off on the open road. | :32:21. | :32:26. | |
Too quick to be stopped by any of Scotland's barriers. | :32:27. | :32:30. | |
So they tried to catch them another way. | :32:31. | :32:33. | |
Finn Russell kicked Scotland closer, but Leigh Halfpenny can kick | :32:34. | :32:35. | |
In the city of Trainspotting, try-spotting. | :32:36. | :32:46. | |
They moved six points clear, then Wales responded. | :32:47. | :32:53. | |
This time Rhys Webb asked the question, but, before he reached | :32:54. | :32:56. | |
Under the pump Scotland have cracked in the past, | :32:57. | :33:05. | |
A fizzer to Tim Visser, delirium Vern Cotter style. | :33:06. | :33:10. | |
A first Scottish victory over Wales in ten years. | :33:11. | :33:15. | |
29-13 and all of this shows Scotland's rugby resurgence | :33:16. | :33:17. | |
and proves that they are very real contenders for this year's title. | :33:18. | :33:23. | |
Which of Ireland and France could join them? | :33:24. | :33:27. | |
That was always predicted to be tight. | :33:28. | :33:29. | |
A game for spotting the tiniest of spaces, | :33:30. | :33:31. | |
Back in the team to do this - a lovely drop. | :33:32. | :33:39. | |
For Ireland, as for Scotland, the title chase is on. | :33:40. | :33:50. | |
Italy took a surprise early lead against England in the women's | :33:51. | :33:53. | |
Six Nations, as Sofia Stefan went over in the fourth minute. | :33:54. | :33:56. | |
But the English pack overwhelmed their opponents. | :33:57. | :34:00. | |
Hooker Vicky Fleetwood scored a hat-trick of almost identical | :34:01. | :34:02. | |
England lead the Six Nations table by four points from Ireland, | :34:03. | :34:07. | |
Chelsea have extended their lead at the top of the Premier League | :34:08. | :34:15. | |
to 11 points after a 3-1 win over Swansea City at Stamford Bridge. | :34:16. | :34:19. | |
Cesc Fabregas marked his 300th Premier League appearance by firing | :34:20. | :34:22. | |
Fernando Llorente equalised before the interval. | :34:23. | :34:29. | |
But after the break, Chelsea swept Swansea aside | :34:30. | :34:31. | |
with goals from Pedro and Diego Costa. | :34:32. | :34:35. | |
because the other teams have to play, but for sure for us | :34:36. | :34:41. | |
it is important to look at ourselves and to think to win. | :34:42. | :34:44. | |
Because for sure in this part of the season every win | :34:45. | :34:47. | |
Elsewhere, Crystal Palace beat Middlesbrough 1-0, | :34:48. | :34:56. | |
to move out of the relegation zone, but Sunderland remain bottom | :34:57. | :34:58. | |
Hull City and Burnley drew 1-1, as did Watford and West Ham. | :34:59. | :35:03. | |
Celtic have maintained their 24 point lead at the top | :35:04. | :35:10. | |
of the Scottish Premiership with a 2-0 win over Hamilton. | :35:11. | :35:13. | |
Moussa Dembele scored both goals to give the Hoops their 21st league | :35:14. | :35:16. | |
Aberdeen moved nine points clear in the race for second place, | :35:17. | :35:21. | |
Partick Thistle beat a ten-man Hearts. | :35:22. | :35:27. | |
And Kilmarnock got their first away win since October | :35:28. | :35:29. | |
England's one-day cricket captain Eoin Morgan top-scored with 95, | :35:30. | :35:36. | |
as his side eased to a win in the first warm-up game | :35:37. | :35:39. | |
Morgan was joined by Jason Roy, new test captain | :35:40. | :35:43. | |
Joe Root and Ben Stokes in scoring half-centuries, | :35:44. | :35:45. | |
as they beat the Vice Chancellor's 11 by 117 runs. | :35:46. | :35:48. | |
The first ODI of the three-match series is on Friday. | :35:49. | :35:54. | |
Boxing now, and Amir Khan and Manny Pacquiao have confirmed | :35:55. | :35:57. | |
they will take to the ring on April the 23rd. | :35:58. | :36:00. | |
Both fighters made the announcement on social media a few hours ago. | :36:01. | :36:03. | |
No venue has been given for what Khan describes | :36:04. | :36:05. | |
as the "super fight", but Pacquiao has suggested | :36:06. | :36:08. | |
earlier this month it may take place in the United Arab Emirates. | :36:09. | :36:25. | |
Meanwhile, Britain's Gavin McDonnell lost his world super-bantamweight | :36:26. | :36:27. | |
title fight against Mexico's Rey Vargas by majority decision | :36:28. | :36:30. | |
Vargas took an early lead, but McDonnell showed his staying | :36:31. | :36:34. | |
power as he battled back in the final rounds. | :36:35. | :36:37. | |
Victory would have delivered Britain's first simultaneous twin | :36:38. | :36:39. | |
world champions, with Jamie McDonnell already | :36:40. | :36:41. | |
in possession of the WBA bantamweight belt. | :36:42. | :36:43. | |
To rugby league, and the transatlantic adventure | :36:44. | :36:44. | |
of Toronto Wolfpack started with a muddy success, | :36:45. | :36:47. | |
as they reached the fourth round of the Challenge Cup. | :36:48. | :36:50. | |
The full time pros of the Wolfpack, recruited from three continents, | :36:51. | :36:52. | |
were in West Yorkshire to face amateur side Siddal. | :36:53. | :36:55. | |
And this try by Adam Sidlow made a little bit of history | :36:56. | :36:58. | |
with the winning try as the Canadian side won by 14-6. | :36:59. | :37:03. | |
There was a hairy moment for Great Britain's men's four | :37:04. | :37:05. | |
bobsleigh team at the World Championships in Germany. | :37:06. | :37:10. | |
The team crashed out in their second run. | :37:11. | :37:12. | |
They ended up going head first into the wall, | :37:13. | :37:14. | |
They won't feature in the remaining heats, | :37:15. | :37:20. | |
though, because their sled failed to make it | :37:21. | :37:22. | |
Look at that. It looks pretty dodgy. Painfully everyone was okayed. They | :37:23. | :37:37. | |
were pretty inconsolable about not finishing as well. Obviously the | :37:38. | :37:44. | |
main thing is they are all OK. It is like a pinball machine. | :37:45. | :37:48. | |
That's a great description. What sort of speeds do they go? | :37:49. | :37:59. | |
Very, very fast! Really quick. Something that caught my eye, | :38:00. | :38:04. | |
England are playing Italy in the Six Nations. The commentaries on 5 Live | :38:05. | :38:09. | |
as ever. A little piece in the Mail on Sunday, suggesting in order to | :38:10. | :38:13. | |
keep England's rugby union players' feet on the ground, Eddie Jones is | :38:14. | :38:17. | |
getting them to clean their dressing room. I love the idea of some of | :38:18. | :38:24. | |
those big forwards cleaning away. I can see it now. The All Blacks did | :38:25. | :38:29. | |
it, keeping them firmly on the floor. | :38:30. | :38:36. | |
Good stuff. Match of the Day is coming up. | :38:37. | :38:37. | |
We're here on the BBC News Channel until 9am this morning. | :38:38. | :38:40. | |
And coming up in the next hour: We'll meet a junior doctor | :38:41. | :38:43. | |
who nearly died of anorexia, who wants more training to be given | :38:44. | :38:46. | |
And from the fun of La La Land to the seriousness of The White | :38:47. | :38:51. | |
We'll take a look at what makes an Oscar nominated film. | :38:52. | :38:55. | |
All that to come on the BBC News Channel. | :38:56. | :38:57. | |
But this is where we say goodbye to viewers on BBC One. | :38:58. | :39:00. | |
