:01:28. > :01:31.weekend is looking mixed. Some of us might have to run for cover today

:01:32. > :01:34.from a fuchsia hours. Tomorrow is actually looking mostly sunny.

:01:35. > :01:38.Tensions are rising over Gilbraltar's position during Brexit,

:01:39. > :01:41.after the EU gave Spain a potential veto on any future deal

:01:42. > :01:45.Last night, the government said it would stand up for Gibraltar's

:01:46. > :01:49.The enclave has accused Spain of trying to manipulate discussions,

:01:50. > :01:51.in order to further its 300-year-old sovereignty claims.

:01:52. > :02:10.Gibraltar has been in British hands in 1713. Its shares they had order

:02:11. > :02:16.since Spain, but rejects any Spanish claim of sovereignty. The current

:02:17. > :02:19.proposals mean a deal between the UK and the EU would not apply to

:02:20. > :02:24.Gibraltar without an additional agreement between the UK and Spain.

:02:25. > :02:29.Gibraltar's chief minister has rejected this as an attempt by Spain

:02:30. > :02:35.to encroach on the rock's ability to control its sovereignty. It singles

:02:36. > :02:39.out Travolta. It is unfair and unnecessary and is committed to. I

:02:40. > :02:44.am grateful Spain has been foolish enough to play this card early in

:02:45. > :02:47.this process and not at five minutes to midnight with an agreement in

:02:48. > :02:50.place, bar the issue of Gibraltar. The British government has been

:02:51. > :02:55.quick to affirm its commitment to the territory. Foreign Secretary as

:02:56. > :03:02.Johnson tweeted that the UK remains implacable and rocklike in our

:03:03. > :03:08.support for Gibraltar. But these are draft proposals, due to be finalised

:03:09. > :03:11.by the EU at the end of the month. Theresa May has until then to try to

:03:12. > :03:14.persuade them to drop this controversial clause.

:03:15. > :03:16.Later this morning we'll be speaking to Gilbratar's chief minister

:03:17. > :03:26.Two million people are set for a pay rise today,

:03:27. > :03:33.as the national living wage goes up t7.50 pounds an hour.

:03:34. > :03:35.The change, which means over-25s are paid at least 7.50

:03:36. > :03:38.an hour, has been broadly welcomed by unions.

:03:39. > :03:40.But there've been calls from campaigners for the rate to be

:03:41. > :03:44.higher to meet the true cost of living - while employers

:03:45. > :03:46.have expressed concern about the strain of additional costs.

:03:47. > :03:50.Here's our business correspondent Joe Lynam.

:03:51. > :03:55.23-year-old Lewis Davison is already paid more than the national living

:03:56. > :03:59.wage by his employer. But you certainly notice is the difference

:04:00. > :04:05.from his previous company. I was struggling for money. It was a need

:04:06. > :04:09.concern. It was very much go to work, come back, spend the night in

:04:10. > :04:14.front of the telly. Now I can afford to have a social life and I can

:04:15. > :04:20.afford to do stuff in my local area. I can enjoy myself a bit more. From

:04:21. > :04:25.today, all workers over 25 must be paid at least ?7 50 an hour. If you

:04:26. > :04:31.are careful week you will get at least ?180. At employers are

:04:32. > :04:34.worried. Many employers were already paying their staff more than the

:04:35. > :04:39.national living wage for those who went it is adding significant costs

:04:40. > :04:44.of their businesses. About ?900 a year for staff, on average, than a

:04:45. > :04:48.further ?120 with the knock-on consequences for national insurance

:04:49. > :04:52.payments as well. Much of that cost will be absorbed by the businesses,

:04:53. > :04:56.rather than passing it forward on prices. That is not the only change.

:04:57. > :05:01.Controversial new business rates come into force today. While most

:05:02. > :05:06.companies will be paying less, some, especially in the south-east, face

:05:07. > :05:11.higher bills. And a new system for calculating car taxes start. Hybrid

:05:12. > :05:17.car owners will be paying more than they did. Around 4000 households in

:05:18. > :05:21.England owning more than ?400,000 a year have received taxpayer money to

:05:22. > :05:24.help them buy a home. Official figures also help they have been

:05:25. > :05:27.helped by the equity loan scheme, which has assisted more than 20,000

:05:28. > :05:33.households, who are not first-time buyers. Labour said it showed the

:05:34. > :05:36.initiative was badly targeted. The government said it continued to make

:05:37. > :05:41.home ownership a reality that thousands of people. Patients

:05:42. > :05:44.referred to be NHS for fertility team in Scotland will be eligible

:05:45. > :05:46.for three full cycles of IVF treatment.

:05:47. > :05:48.From today, the Scottish government is increasing the number

:05:49. > :05:51.of cycles funded by the health service for women under 40

:05:52. > :05:54.It's expected to cost about 1-million-pounds a year.

:05:55. > :06:05.It is thought that around one in seven couples experience difficulty

:06:06. > :06:09.having children. In Scotland, up until now, women under 40 have been

:06:10. > :06:17.offered two cycles of IVF on the NHS. That is now changing to upset

:06:18. > :06:22.three. Older women between 40 and 42 will also be offered one cycle if

:06:23. > :06:27.they fit certain criteria. In other parts of the UK, the number of IVF

:06:28. > :06:35.cycles on the NHS for women under 40 varies. In England, up to three full

:06:36. > :06:39.cycles are recommended. But local commissioning groups decide, and of

:06:40. > :06:45.half the areas in England, only one cycle is offered. In Wales women

:06:46. > :06:50.under 40 are entitled to two cycles. In Northern Ireland, just one. The

:06:51. > :06:56.IVF programme in Scotland is expected to crunch the NHS around ?1

:06:57. > :07:01.million a year. -- cost the NHS. Money which has already put aside.

:07:02. > :07:03.The minister says changes to IVF treatment in Scotland make it the

:07:04. > :07:08.fairest and most generous in the UK. This is the moment President Donald

:07:09. > :07:11.Trump left the Oval Office on Friday without signing the two executive

:07:12. > :07:20.order he was there to announce. He continued walking as a reporter

:07:21. > :07:23.shouted questions about whether Mr Trump was directing his

:07:24. > :07:28.Administration to grant immunity to fight and Pfizer Michael Flynn, and

:07:29. > :07:31.its journalists confusion. Vice President Mike Pence picked up the

:07:32. > :07:33.orders from the table and they were signed in another room.

:07:34. > :07:35.Authorities in Hungary will begin moving asylum seekers

:07:36. > :07:39.to new detention facilities near the border with Serbia in a bid

:07:40. > :07:41.to stop them slipping away deeper into Europe.

:07:42. > :07:44.But rulings by the European Court of Human Rights against the move

:07:45. > :07:50.Nick Thorpe sent this report from the Hungarian-Serbian border.

:07:51. > :07:58.This container camp is still empty. There is space here for 250 asylum

:07:59. > :08:03.seekers. So far it is home to just two families. The government says it

:08:04. > :08:07.is locking them up to close a loophole, to stop those who seek

:08:08. > :08:15.asylum in Hungary slipping away deep into Europe. But detaining asylum

:08:16. > :08:20.seekers automatically is illegal. They are treated as if they were

:08:21. > :08:27.illegal, from the first moment. So whereas the European Union's law

:08:28. > :08:31.requires to accept that they have the right to stay until the first

:08:32. > :08:36.decision, they are treated first as if they were illegal, second as if

:08:37. > :08:40.they had not entered Hungary. Call it a reception centre, call it a

:08:41. > :08:43.container camp. By building it be Hungary and authorities have issued

:08:44. > :08:48.a direct challenge to the international community. Nobody can

:08:49. > :08:53.tell us, they say, how did you would asylum seekers. This is our food

:08:54. > :09:00.warehouse. Just across this Serbian border, volunteers provide food to

:09:01. > :09:05.volunteers. They used to rest here on the way to Hungary. Now they are

:09:06. > :09:09.looking for alternative route. This is a time of experimentation. I

:09:10. > :09:12.think the volunteers in Serbia are trying to see if there is any

:09:13. > :09:19.direct, trying the Croatian border and the remaining border. --

:09:20. > :09:23.Romanian border. In a ruined brick factory at the edge of town this

:09:24. > :09:28.Pakistani refugee contemplates his next move. Maybe Alice tried from

:09:29. > :09:32.the Croatian side of the Romanian side. This order is now totally

:09:33. > :09:38.close. They have ill say fans. It is a problem for us. Hungary, at great

:09:39. > :09:45.cost, has sealed its southern border. So he and his friends should

:09:46. > :09:53.plan to travel through Romanian set. -- instead. The creator of the

:09:54. > :09:57.rainbow flag had become an international symbol to gay rights.

:10:05. > :10:08.community in 1978 by Harvey milk, California's first openly gay

:10:15. > :10:17.best quality of life in any rural area in the UK. It is beautiful,

:10:18. > :10:21.gorgeous to look at, low crime rates, and a good choice of pubs,

:10:22. > :10:26.according to a survey. It is the first time the islands have top the

:10:27. > :10:30.poll, jumping from 46 last year. They beat the most mid-is, which

:10:31. > :10:37.came into second place next year. -- they'd beat the West Midlands.

:10:38. > :10:43.Let's take you through the front ages of the morning papers. The

:10:44. > :10:47.times of a story about Google and their tax affairs. Inland Revenue

:10:48. > :10:53.has been landed by a bell with Google. They have agreed to pay ?31

:10:54. > :10:57.in corporation tax over last year, despite the governments jesting they

:10:58. > :11:04.will claw back more from Google. -- suggesting. There is a picture of

:11:05. > :11:10.the Princess of Wales with a -- Prince of Wales with violence and

:11:11. > :11:14.blackout. This story in the Daily Mail suggests Prince Charles tried

:11:15. > :11:19.to halt the invasion of Afghanistan to honour Rama dance. They say that

:11:20. > :11:24.this is a plea he made to the US ambassador to London for weeks into

:11:25. > :11:29.the military operation. The Daily Telegraph has another take on a

:11:30. > :11:34.long-running MP's expenses story. They say that there is now a new

:11:35. > :11:38.development because Parliament is facing a new scandal after the

:11:39. > :11:41.amount that every MP pays their staff, including their spouses and

:11:42. > :11:45.family members, which they say has now been leaked. The picture that

:11:46. > :11:51.you can see if the American actress Megan Michael, Prince Harry's

:11:52. > :11:55.Elphin, who has than a photo shoot. On the front page of the Daily

:11:56. > :11:59.Mirror they have an article by Linda Nolan talking about the whole

:12:00. > :12:06.situation, she is speaking for the first time about facing life with

:12:07. > :12:10.incurable cancer. She says, "I am not going to be dying from cancer, I

:12:11. > :12:17.don't be living with cancer". That is Linda Nolan. Front page of the

:12:18. > :12:22.Sun newspaper. A headline writer's dream. Nigel Farage meeting this

:12:23. > :12:31.young lady on an aeroplane. Yes, they go. 6:12am is the time. We will

:12:32. > :12:35.have a full review of the front pages later. Music often provides an

:12:36. > :12:39.escape from the real world, but in whole, they are aiming to give

:12:43. > :12:47.grace the Humber Bridge by incorporating surround -- sounds

:12:48. > :12:52.made by the structure as people walk across the bridge.

:12:53. > :12:59.Herein leaves something magical is taking place. Musicians from opera

:13:00. > :13:02.North are putting the finishing touches to a recording which will

:13:03. > :13:06.invoke the essence of one of Yorkshire's most iconic sites, the

:13:07. > :13:12.Humber Bridge. Many of us will have driven across the bridge, taking in

:13:13. > :13:17.the size of the Humber of. But this unique project is hoping to inspire

:13:18. > :13:23.people to walk along its mile long length and yet lost in incredible

:13:24. > :13:30.sounds. Opera North is working with a Norwegian composers to create this

:13:31. > :13:36.musical guided walk. It is a fantastic construction and it is so

:13:37. > :13:39.much rigour than I expected. It has been interesting to walk across the

:13:40. > :13:49.bridge and to actually hear the sound of the Bridget felt. --

:13:50. > :13:54.Bridge. Meanwhile the opera orchestra is doing its part. How can

:13:55. > :14:00.we blend different instruments into that and then build things on top of

:14:01. > :14:06.chords and sounds? The music just felt like it was a natural blood

:14:07. > :14:17.running through your veins. Some of these musicians are using their

:14:18. > :14:21.instruments in a very unusual way. The operator north chorus also has a

:14:22. > :14:27.part to play in creating the soundscape. It is very atmospheric.

:14:28. > :14:31.Part of the problem is that we only know our bits and there are at least

:14:32. > :14:35.seven other layers, as far as we can tell. I have no idea what the other

:14:36. > :14:39.end product is going to be. The finished piece will be heard through

:14:40. > :14:43.headsets as people walk across the bridge. What is amazing about it is

:14:44. > :14:47.that it makes you look at everything completely differently, when you are

:14:48. > :14:48.listening as well. It creates a completely... You look at everything

:14:49. > :14:54.much more carefully. It is great. You're watching

:15:56. > :15:58.it be a nice day for a trip to the countryside?

:15:59. > :16:02.It always is beautiful in the countryside, but the weather will be

:16:03. > :16:06.a little bit hit and miss today. The clouds are building and they will

:16:07. > :16:10.continue to build. We are in for some pretty heavy showers today, so

:16:11. > :16:14.the weather will be a little bit hit and miss. We might have to run for

:16:15. > :16:18.cover and get away from some of the dark clouds. It's already reining in

:16:19. > :16:24.parts of Wales. We will see more of the showers developing. -- raining.

:16:25. > :16:30.This morning they will start popping up in the western parts of the UK

:16:31. > :16:33.first. Then later in the afternoon they will start developing in more

:16:34. > :16:38.eastern parts of the UK. And we will have rumbles of thunder. One of

:16:39. > :16:42.these days where we get sunshine and then we start to see the big clouds

:16:43. > :16:46.brewing on the horizon, wondering if you will make it to the corner shop

:16:47. > :16:51.before getting soaked. Some of them will be quite heavy. There could

:16:52. > :16:57.even be hail as well. And a cool each sort of day wherever you are.

:16:58. > :17:08.Temperatures only about 13- 14 degrees at lunchtime. -- coolish

:17:09. > :17:13.sort of day. This evening, as if by magic, they are gone and we are left

:17:14. > :17:17.with a clear day. Overall a dry night tonight. The chilly, just cold

:17:18. > :17:25.enough for grass frost in some northern areas, and tomorrow at the

:17:26. > :17:30.-- a different sort of day. Tomorrow this high pressure builds. Lots of

:17:31. > :17:36.clear whether in the morning, a crisp, sunny, chilly start for many,

:17:37. > :17:41.then we are in for a beautiful, sunny day. Light winds as well.

:17:42. > :17:48.Feeling warm and cause we have more sunshine. Maybe 17 in London. Cooler

:17:49. > :17:55.around the coast. For most of us 12- 13. In summary, April showers today,

:17:56. > :17:59.chilly overnight and tomorrow we have a sunny Sunday. Thanks very

:18:00. > :18:02.much indeed. Changeable! We'll be back with a summary

:18:03. > :18:05.of the news at 6:30. Now it's time for The Film Review,

:18:06. > :18:22.with Gavin Esler and Mark Kermode. Hello and welcome to

:18:23. > :18:25.The Film Review on BBC News. To take us through this

:18:26. > :18:27.week's cinema releases We have Graduation, which is

:18:28. > :18:37.a low-key and intense drama. We have Ghost in the Shell,

:18:38. > :18:40.controversial live action adaptation And Free Fire, the new film

:18:41. > :18:49.from Ben Wheatley. Ben Wheatley, we are both

:18:50. > :18:52.fans of Ben Wheatley. Graduation is from Cristian Mungiu,

:18:53. > :18:57.the Romanian director of 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days,

:18:58. > :19:00.which you remember we reviewed This is another low-key

:19:01. > :19:05.and very intense drama. The story is a doctor,

:19:06. > :19:08.his daughter is on her way to school, is attacked,

:19:09. > :19:11.she gets a broken wrist and the doctor is just

:19:12. > :19:14.simply worried that it He is desperate for her to get great

:19:15. > :19:19.exam grades because he wants to be He is convinced that she needs

:19:20. > :19:24.to get away because the place that they live is not somewhere

:19:25. > :19:27.that he wants his daughter And all he can focus on is this

:19:28. > :19:31.desire for her to get As a result of it, he starts

:19:32. > :19:35.getting drawn into a web Somebody knows somebody

:19:36. > :19:38.who could perhaps ensure that her exam grades are OK,

:19:39. > :19:42.but only in return for a favour for a deputy mayor who needs to be

:19:43. > :19:45.moved up in his wait The daughter, understandably,

:19:46. > :19:49.is not pleased about the idea It really is and you see

:19:50. > :20:54.from that single shot, What I love about this

:20:55. > :20:58.is it's a perfect blend On one hand, it's a story

:20:59. > :21:03.about a father and a daughter, on the other hand it's

:21:04. > :21:05.a story about how social Every conversation is,

:21:06. > :21:08.ooh, that building's Yes, it will be a backroom deal,

:21:09. > :21:14.well, isn't everything? It's a film in which

:21:15. > :21:17.the personalities of the characters completely draw you in,

:21:18. > :21:20.and you believe in their personal stories, but you also understand

:21:21. > :21:22.that it's telling a wider story, about what it means to grow up

:21:23. > :21:26.in a society in which everything seems to be sort of slightly

:21:27. > :21:29.on the wrong side And, as is so brilliant with this

:21:30. > :21:35.director, what he manages to do is get to that point across,

:21:36. > :21:38.but never sounds hectoring, you never feel like what you're

:21:39. > :21:41.watching is a political statement. What you feel you're watching

:21:42. > :21:43.is a really intense drama in which the doctor,

:21:44. > :21:46.for example, he's concerned about his daughter,

:21:47. > :21:48.but he has a mistress. At one point he says

:21:49. > :21:50.to his wife, everyone cheats And he says, yeah,

:21:51. > :21:57.and look where it got you! So it's a really interesting film

:21:58. > :21:59.about guilt and complicity. Some people have compared him

:22:00. > :22:02.to Michael Haneke, haven't they? Because lots of bad things

:22:03. > :22:05.are happening under the surface Although I think, personally,

:22:06. > :22:09.I think there's a lot more tenderness, a lot more humanity

:22:10. > :22:13.in what's happening here. Haneke's films are terrific,

:22:14. > :22:17.but they're very harsh, very sharp and sometimes accusatory,

:22:18. > :22:19.I think. Live action adaptation

:22:20. > :22:28.of a celebrated manga, and of course a famous 1995 anime,

:22:29. > :22:30.which people revere Scarlett Johansson is Major,

:22:31. > :22:34.a human ghost in a cyber She's a person, she's

:22:35. > :22:38.a robot, she's a weapon. That film has become

:22:39. > :22:42.the cause of some controversy about whitewashing,

:22:43. > :22:44.and about the fact that Scarlett Johansson

:22:45. > :22:46.was cast in this role. It has to be said, the director

:22:47. > :22:49.of the '95 anime has said, and I quote, "There is no basis

:22:50. > :22:53.for saying that an Asian actor must It is a controversy that

:22:54. > :22:56.has dogged the film, Like the plot of the film itself,

:22:57. > :23:01.you can look at this and think, well, it's a soul of one thing

:23:02. > :23:04.transplanted into a shell which is slightly artificial

:23:05. > :23:06.and slightly more glossy. However, I was strangely

:23:07. > :23:08.impressed by it. I went in with fairly

:23:09. > :23:10.low expectations. I think it does a very good job

:23:11. > :23:15.of evoking the future world. People have talked about it

:23:16. > :23:17.looking like Blade Runner, it looks more like The Fifth

:23:18. > :23:20.Element, oddly enough. I found that, yes, it changed

:23:21. > :23:28.and simplified the narrative to some extent and it loses some

:23:29. > :23:31.of the melancholy and depth of its predecessors,

:23:32. > :23:33.but as a piece of multiplex entertainment it was better

:23:34. > :23:36.than I expected it to be OK, so, the new film

:23:37. > :23:44.by Ben Wheatley. The story is in Boston in the 1970s

:23:45. > :23:50.there is an arms deal going down between a group of people,

:23:51. > :23:53.all of whom are The whole thing looks very volatile

:23:54. > :23:57.and looks like at any moment it could fall apart appallingly,

:23:58. > :23:59.and of course it does. Try not to hit any of the metal

:24:00. > :24:04.work, because I don't want to get any of those bling burns

:24:05. > :24:07.on my new... I don't know about you guys,

:24:08. > :24:20.but I for one think Vern's My guess is you're whatever

:24:21. > :24:24.you're paid to be, pal. What I really like about it is this,

:24:25. > :25:06.on the one hand it's a tense drama about a bunch of people

:25:07. > :25:10.in a warehouse, all of whom are armed and all of whom are fighting

:25:11. > :25:13.each other in various different However, it also has a kind

:25:14. > :25:16.of screwball comedy element. The best way of describing it,

:25:17. > :25:19.it's like a silent movie, slapstick sensibility,

:25:20. > :25:21.but with a soundtrack which reminds you of those

:25:22. > :25:25.Loony Tunes cartoons, that is really, really

:25:26. > :25:27.brilliantly put together. It keeps you on the

:25:28. > :25:29.edge of your seat. It's tense, but also

:25:30. > :25:32.very, very comic. The idea is that all of these

:25:33. > :25:37.people are variously They're all laughed at,

:25:38. > :25:43.from their ridiculous quotes Vernon keeps saying "watch

:25:44. > :25:47.and vern, watch and vern." What I liked about it,

:25:48. > :25:50.I think what Ben Wheatley and his film making partner Amy Jump

:25:51. > :25:53.managed to do is make it a cross-genre film,

:25:54. > :25:57.which they always do. OK, yes, it's a thriller,

:25:58. > :26:00.but it's also a comedy, It's a comedy about the fact

:26:01. > :26:05.that if you take... People have compared it to,

:26:06. > :26:08.they say it's like the last movement It's like that sequence

:26:09. > :26:14.in Naked Gun 2 1/2, when there's the close-range gunfight,

:26:15. > :26:16.with two people hiding behind the same dustbin,

:26:17. > :26:19.but it's like that that, It passes the six laughs test

:26:20. > :26:29.in the first ten minutes. It's passed the six laughs test

:26:30. > :26:32.in the last two minutes. You were laughing

:26:33. > :26:34.all the way through. I'm laughing at you

:26:35. > :26:36.talking about it. OK, fine, so it's me

:26:37. > :26:38.you're laughing at! But Cillian Murphy, Brie Larson,

:26:39. > :26:40.Sharlto Copley, Armie Hammer, a really terrific cast,

:26:41. > :26:43.and every single one of them clearly rising to the challenge of this,

:26:44. > :26:46.thinking it's a great script. I know nobody ever comes out

:26:47. > :26:51.of the cinema and says this, LAUGHS

:26:52. > :26:54.I think you sold that quite well. This is out in cinemas

:26:55. > :26:59.at the moment. Have you seen this yet?

:27:00. > :27:02.No, I haven't see it yet. It's described by its director

:27:03. > :27:05.as a social thriller, and it's very much influenced

:27:06. > :27:07.by Rosemary's Baby But it also alludes to horror movies

:27:08. > :27:12.like Red State and Green Room and also to films like Tales from

:27:13. > :27:16.the Hood and To Sleep With Anger. It's a sort of horrifying satire

:27:17. > :27:19.about racism in post-racial America, about liberal, rich white people,

:27:20. > :27:21.with this broiling I saw it in a packed cinema and it

:27:22. > :27:29.really played to the crowd. It's done terrifically well

:27:30. > :27:32.and I think it's great. A coming-of-age drama that

:27:33. > :27:35.appears to be written and directed by someone

:27:36. > :27:39.who likes the protagonist. It's smart, funny, intelligent

:27:40. > :27:43.and terrific performances by Hailee Steinfeld

:27:44. > :27:45.and Woody Harrelson. And Kelly Fremon Craig who wrote

:27:46. > :27:48.and directed it, I think, I thought it was really touching,

:27:49. > :27:52.very tender and very funny. Since this is our last Film Review

:29:37. > :29:40.Gilbraltar's position during Brexit, after the EU gave Spain a potential

:29:41. > :29:43.veto on any future deal The enclave's administration accused

:29:44. > :29:51.Spain of trying to manipulate the discussions, in order to further

:29:52. > :29:54.its 300-year-old sovereignty claims. Last night, the Foreign Secretary,

:30:00. > :30:04.for a pay rise today, as the national living wage goes up

:30:05. > :30:09.to 7.50 pounds an hour. The change has been broadly

:30:10. > :30:11.welcomed by unions. But there've been calls

:30:12. > :30:14.from campaigners for the rate to be higher to meet the true cost

:30:15. > :30:18.of living, while employers have expressed concern about

:30:19. > :30:20.the strain of additional costs. Around 4,000 households in England

:30:21. > :30:23.earning more than 100,000 pounds a year have received taxpayers'

:30:24. > :30:26.money to help them buy a home. Official figures also reveal

:32:15. > :32:18.about today? Not really. It is a pool full day! And it is 60 years

:32:19. > :32:23.since television viewers first saw this. The past winter, one of the

:32:24. > :32:27.mildest in living memory, has had its effect in other ways as well.

:32:28. > :32:34.Most important of all it has resulted in an exceptionally heavy

:32:35. > :32:35.spaghetti crop. That is still great. It is Panorama's famous spaghetti

:32:36. > :32:38.tree report. The three minute broadcast

:32:39. > :32:41.was watched by 8 million people. Unfortunately, some viewers failed

:32:42. > :32:43.to see the funny side, but others were so intrigued

:32:44. > :32:46.they contacted the BBC to ask where they could purchase

:32:47. > :32:48.their very own tree. Those are the main

:32:49. > :32:56.stories this morning. Very good. You wouldn't get away

:32:57. > :33:00.with it now. Everybody is so to these things. I have checked the

:33:01. > :33:08.news this morning. I don't think there are any big April. I am not

:33:09. > :33:12.sure. Good morning! How are you? Remember seeing this? He has pulled

:33:13. > :33:17.out of the Masters, Tiger Woods. That is him winning his first green

:33:18. > :33:21.jacket. He has four of them. He has had so many injury problems, he is

:33:22. > :33:28.not going to feature. It is his back? It is his back. A 15 month

:33:29. > :33:32.break. He has got so much talent, when you look at what he has

:33:33. > :33:36.achieved in the game, he is ready to get back to full fitness. I think he

:33:37. > :33:37.is fighting a losing battle at the moment. It is sad.

:33:38. > :33:42.due to an ongoing problem with his back, and admits he has no

:33:43. > :33:47.The 14 time major winner won his first major at the Masters

:33:48. > :33:54.Incredible to think, isn't it? Of course, people will be watching this

:33:55. > :33:56.and wondering if he will ever return to full fitness and compete at the

:33:57. > :33:57.top again. Roger Federer and Rafa Nadal

:33:58. > :34:01.will meet again in the final of the Miami Masters

:34:02. > :34:04.tomorrow in what is a repeat of the Australian Open Final

:34:05. > :34:06.earlier this year. Federer beating Nick

:34:07. > :34:07.Kyrigos overnight. Later Briton's Johanna Konta faces

:34:08. > :34:10.Caroline Wozniacki in the Women's Australian Open quarter

:34:11. > :34:15.finalist earlier this year, and now looking for

:34:16. > :34:27.a third WTA title. Where will look to enjoy the

:34:28. > :34:32.occasion a little bit more. It is a great tournament to be a part of an

:34:33. > :34:37.tool the end. It is also something we will work hard for, to get

:34:38. > :34:40.opportunities like this. Artic to play against incredibly tough

:34:41. > :34:44.opponents and somebody who has been at the top of the game for so long.

:34:45. > :34:47.I think overall, just to have the good join and of the challenges. --

:34:48. > :34:51.enjoyment of the challengers. No title just yet for runaway

:34:52. > :34:54.leaders in the Scottich Prmeiership They will have to wait

:34:55. > :34:57.until Sunday - at least - before they can call themselves

:34:58. > :34:59.champions after second-placed Aberdeen beat Dundee

:35:00. > :35:01.7-0 at last night. Had they lost, Celtic

:35:02. > :35:03.would have been champions. It's not often you see

:35:04. > :35:06.a defender score a hat trick. We did last night Andrew Considine

:35:07. > :35:10.made it 4-0 just before half-time // Celtic are still 22

:35:11. > :35:12.points clear at the top. Considine getting the seventh

:35:13. > :35:22.and his hat trick goal late on. Liverpool will be without

:35:23. > :35:24.Jordan Henderson and Adam Lallana for today's merseyside

:35:25. > :35:26.derby against Everton. The two sides meet in the lunchtime

:35:27. > :35:29.kick off in the Premier League. Let's hear from both managers,

:35:30. > :35:32.firstly Jurgen Klopp who's been impressed with the way today's

:35:33. > :35:35.opponents have been playing - Everton have lost just one

:35:36. > :35:50.of their last 12 League games Have a really good run. A good run.

:35:51. > :35:57.Didn't lose a lot of games in the last few weeks. Good results.

:35:58. > :36:02.Obviously confident. But, yeah, we feel that maybe should underestimate

:36:03. > :36:07.the power. Whenever we play them, we have to create a special atmosphere.

:36:08. > :36:17.It is a new season. It is a new game. A new manager, by Everton. I

:36:18. > :36:24.don't know why but I heard a little bit about the last two seasons of

:36:25. > :36:28.Everton, that maybe they were too afraid to play against Liverpool.

:36:29. > :36:32.But why you need to be afraid to play against Liverpool, I don't

:36:33. > :36:38.understand that. Well, later, the legal leaders Chelsea, who are ten

:36:39. > :36:39.points clear at the top, they can extend that lead again when they

:36:40. > :36:42.play Crystal Palace. And there's another Derby at teatime

:36:43. > :36:53.- the south coast Derby or El "Classi-coast"

:36:54. > :36:55.as some have dubbed it! Southampton taking on Bournemouth

:36:56. > :36:58.are neck and neck in the league We just heard from manager

:36:59. > :37:02.Ronald Koeman there who witnessed his defender Seamus Coleman suffer

:37:03. > :37:05.a really nasty injury whilst playing for his country the Republic

:37:06. > :37:07.of Ireland against Wales And now he's at the centre of a row

:37:08. > :37:12.after accusing the national coach Martin O'Neill of not

:37:13. > :37:14.protecting his player whilst he was away from his club side

:37:15. > :37:17.on international duty. But O'Neill's responded calling

:37:18. > :37:19.the Everton manager a "master You wonder if that one will rumble

:37:20. > :37:25.on. Derby County have kept their slim

:37:26. > :37:28.hopes of a playoff place alive with victory over Queens Park

:37:29. > :37:30.Rangers in the Championship. Manager Gary Rowett marked his first

:37:31. > :37:33.home game in charge Matia Vydra scored the only goal

:37:34. > :37:38.of the game in the second Derby are now six points off sixth

:37:39. > :37:42.placed Sheffield Wednesday. In Superleague, Castleford Tigers

:37:43. > :37:44.remain top on points difference after they thrashed

:37:45. > :37:46.Huddersfield 52-16. Leeds Rhinos have moved up to second

:37:47. > :37:49.with a 26-18 victory over Wigan. Leeds were only two points ahead

:37:50. > :37:53.at half time, but ran in two tries in the second half to pull clear -

:37:54. > :37:57.Carl Ablett with the final try. Britain's Charley Hull is 3 shots

:37:58. > :38:03.off the lead after the second round of play at the first women's

:38:04. > :38:07.golf major of the year in Hull finished off her first

:38:08. > :38:12.round with this birdie at the 18th before immediately

:38:13. > :38:13.starting her second round - that was because of delays

:38:14. > :38:16.to the tournament caused Norway's Suzann Pettersen

:38:17. > :38:22.leads on SEVEN under The semi-finals of snooker's

:38:23. > :38:34.China Open start this morning. She finished joint second last year,

:38:35. > :38:39.so fingers crossed she can produce the goods. Sad not to see Tiger

:38:40. > :38:43.Woods. Yes, I think it is. A sorry end to an incredible career. I think

:38:44. > :38:48.that is the reality, at what point is he going to let go and stay

:38:49. > :38:52.enough is enough? Yes, so many times there has been a setback. Is this

:38:53. > :38:58.really the end? He is really clinging on... That is part of what

:38:59. > :39:01.has made him so great, if that drive and determination, which she

:39:02. > :39:06.obviously has in abundance. But injury wise, his body is not up to

:39:07. > :39:10.it. He keeps lowering and all the fans saying that he is going to be

:39:11. > :39:13.back. Everybody wants to see him competing at the top. But it is not

:39:14. > :39:15.happening at the Masters this year. Thank you very much.

:39:16. > :39:19.Curling is one of Team GB's most successful Winter Olypmic sports.

:39:20. > :39:23.In the future, though, they could be getting help

:39:24. > :39:28.Mike's been to a farm in Kent where they've built England's first

:39:29. > :39:41.Away once they milked cows, they are farming a new breed. Kent is the

:39:42. > :39:47.Garden of England. They are milking something very rare. Outside

:39:48. > :39:51.Scotland, curling talent. It is all thanks to a farmer who moved here

:39:52. > :39:54.from Scotland and brought the game with him. Now starts blitzed their

:39:55. > :40:01.time between farming and tending to the ice. There was nothing in

:40:02. > :40:04.England. I came down from Scotland, where killing is something that

:40:05. > :40:10.happens on family days. It was a beautiful thing. When I had the

:40:11. > :40:14.cows, they made a mess, they did not make any money. I bring the curlers

:40:15. > :40:20.in, they make a mess, they still do not make any money! Bartee has

:40:21. > :40:23.stirred deep passion for the sport in southern England, hoping to

:40:24. > :40:29.nurture future curling scars who could one day help the Scots nurture

:40:30. > :40:32.the national team. So far, this is the only dedicated curling rank

:40:33. > :40:40.outside Scotland. But later this Year 1 will open in Preston, and you

:40:41. > :40:46.share. You just slice it up. At any level you can enjoy it. It is

:40:47. > :40:53.straight but it could be a bit short. Adam has a lot of sweeping to

:40:54. > :40:56.do. Closer than I thought! Next year's Winter Olympics will be the

:40:57. > :41:01.first to feature a mixed doubles condition. Will we be getting the

:41:02. > :41:05.nod from the young curlers? I like sliding. There is a specific

:41:06. > :41:09.technique to get it right and it takes so much time to perfect. I

:41:10. > :41:13.think it is down to tactics. Down to knowing what the opposition is

:41:14. > :41:18.thinking, what you can do to win the game. In some ways this game is like

:41:19. > :41:30.chess. I have a couple of tactical signals. The great thing about the

:41:31. > :41:36.sport is that you don't need ice skates. My job is to sweep. As soon

:41:37. > :41:41.as they say sleep, you start sleeping. Here we go, to try to get

:41:42. > :41:51.it the extra few centimetres. Get it into the circle. Come on! You don't

:41:52. > :41:56.really need to be the most typical athlete to get into curling. We have

:41:57. > :41:59.lots of different curlers. It is a great sport occurs there is

:42:00. > :42:03.individual sport involved but you have to play as a team. --

:42:04. > :42:11.individual skill. It is never over until the last own.

:42:12. > :42:14.Potential! For Mike, I'm not sure. Maybe for everybody else. 6:42 a.m..

:42:15. > :42:18.You might remember the Crystal Maze - the quiz show in the 1990s.

:42:19. > :42:20.But if you ever wished you could have a go,

:42:21. > :42:25.The format has been revived as part of an immersive theatrical

:42:26. > :42:28.production - which sees people take part, influence the show,

:42:29. > :42:29.and even become characters themselves.

:42:30. > :42:35.Breakfast's Tim Muffett has been to have a go.

:42:36. > :42:45.All rights team! The audience as participants. Not just watching a

:42:46. > :42:49.show but the image. The Crystal Maze experience opens today in

:42:50. > :42:55.Manchester. It is based on the early 90s TV programme. He's got it! Look

:42:56. > :42:59.at that! It was a really British TV show. It had a sense of reverence.

:43:00. > :43:05.It was funny. It was tongue in cheek it was silly. That is just the way

:43:06. > :43:09.the Wookie grumbles. Like the London show that has been selling out for a

:43:10. > :43:12.year, this new Manchester production will see audience members compete

:43:13. > :43:18.for crystals to buy time into crystal dome. We have written the

:43:19. > :43:23.disconnect now between people wanting to be at than passive.

:43:24. > :43:28.Wanting to play, and follow a journey, rather than just sitting in

:43:29. > :43:34.a dark auditorium. This in massive production might be inspired iodate

:43:35. > :43:46.seem in the game show, but but (INAUDIBLE). Montague is and Capulet

:43:47. > :43:51.'s. A very different version of Romeo and Juliet. The latest

:43:59. > :44:04.choose which subplot to follow. There is even dodgeball and a 90s

:44:05. > :44:09.rave. It is very immersive. Not quite what you're expecting. I think

:44:10. > :44:13.the fact that it involves everybody in it, that is the whole thing, that

:44:14. > :44:17.you are not sitting separately. The arts Council has seen a big rise in

:44:18. > :44:21.the number of funding applications from experimental theatre groups, up

:44:22. > :44:27.42% since 2013. Many immersive shows like this one, a son Alice in

:44:28. > :44:31.Wonderland, have proved popular. But some feel the novelty is Rankin.

:44:32. > :44:35.What has changed in immersive theatre is that has gone from being

:44:36. > :44:38.this artform that was new and exciting to being something that

:44:39. > :44:42.people are ending up going for the experience of. If you have not got

:44:43. > :44:47.something you want to say and achieve, by bringing the audience

:44:48. > :44:52.into the show, then you might as, it massively. You might as will not do

:44:53. > :44:55.it at all. Confusing at times, perhaps. Audience participation is a

:44:56. > :44:58.must. But the growth of immersive theatre suggest watching a show

:44:59. > :45:08.weaves, for some, no longer enough. What you think? BBC Breakfast

:45:09. > :45:13.teambuilding exercise? Can you see it? Nope! Made if other people. I

:45:14. > :45:21.don't know if we would be any good. Time forever cut the weather.

:45:22. > :45:29.Mixed at the moment. Calm across most areas of the UK, but there are

:45:30. > :45:33.showers building, quite big ones as well, maybe with hail and thunder.

:45:34. > :45:39.At this very moment we have heavy rain around parts of Wales, which

:45:40. > :45:43.should clear away, but for some of us in western parts of the UK it is

:45:44. > :45:49.downhill from now. Clouds will build. Sunshine around, so not

:45:50. > :45:57.overcast skies completely and Reagan, but these popcorn style

:45:58. > :46:02.showers. -- and rain. Very hit and miss, mixed weather and we could get

:46:03. > :46:12.rumbles of thunder. You can see the blobs of blue sky. A wall of water.

:46:13. > :46:15.It might feel like it for a moment if you catch the showers. The thing

:46:16. > :46:19.about them today is they will first form across the western half of the

:46:20. > :46:22.UK and then a little bit later in the afternoon the heavier ones will

:46:23. > :46:27.move towards more eastern areas. Either tighten its staff the showers

:46:28. > :46:38.will clear away and then we are in for a dry, clear night. -- by the

:46:39. > :46:42.time it is dark the showers. Take an umbrella if you are popping out for

:46:43. > :46:45.a longer period of time. You might have to dodge that the shower

:46:46. > :46:51.clouds. A different story for Sunday. Sunday, we are and

:46:52. > :46:56.forecasting any showers. High pressure builds across the UK. Lots

:46:57. > :47:01.of sunshine around, really a pleasant sort of day. The winds will

:47:02. > :47:08.be light, it will feel warmer. Temperatures up to 17 in London. For

:47:09. > :47:14.most of us about 12- 13 degrees. Fresh around the coasts. On the

:47:15. > :47:18.weekend, he prepared for the April showers today. It will be a little

:47:19. > :47:24.bit chillier. Don't be surprised if there is a bit of frost on the grass

:47:25. > :47:29.first thing. On Sunday, a fine and sunny day. Not looking bad at all.

:47:30. > :47:35.That's it. What is going on with the weather?

:47:36. > :47:41.That's a bonkers 24 hours! It's April! Whenever the calendar changes

:47:42. > :47:43.and we get into April, we get April showers.

:47:44. > :47:46.It happens every year. Do you believe it?

:47:47. > :47:49.That's quite interesting. All sorts happening.

:47:50. > :47:52.Now it's time for Click with Spencer Kelly,

:47:53. > :47:54.who's been getting a rare peek inside the studio,

:47:55. > :48:21.and mind, of the self-proclaimed "non-musician", Brian Eno.

:48:22. > :48:31.A wizard who likes decibels, who has won Grammies,

:48:32. > :48:44.The former member of the band, Roxy Music, has added his unique

:48:45. > :48:47.production sound to the biggest acts in the world -

:48:48. > :48:50.groups like U2 and Coldplay, and some chap called David.

:48:51. > :48:53.And it is his love of random, so-called generative art,

:48:54. > :49:06.His new work, Reflection, is also rather unpredictable.

:49:07. > :49:10.It is a generative music app which follows rules defined

:49:11. > :49:15.and refined by Eno, but which plays differently every time you listen.

:49:16. > :49:19.So 14% of these notes, a random 14%, are going to be pitched down

:49:20. > :49:28.The second is that 41% of them are going to go an octave down

:49:29. > :49:35.I would go further, quantum scientist.

:49:36. > :49:44.Eno has spent weeks, even months, tweaking these rules

:49:45. > :49:46.and probabilities which, when they're all when combined,

:49:47. > :49:49.cause these sounds to randomly echo, bounce, transpose or not

:49:50. > :49:52.So these are all different types of scripters.

:49:53. > :49:56.And then there's a whole lot of other stuff.

:49:57. > :50:23.Now, a lot of music is based just on things like that and it goes

:50:24. > :50:25.Now I will putting in some scripters.

:50:26. > :50:29.First thing I'm going to put in is a way of reducing

:50:30. > :50:45.So it's only playing 80% of the beats.

:50:46. > :50:47.Now, let's have it hit some other drums, occasionally.

:50:48. > :50:50.Already it is a pretty crappy drummer, I have to say.

:50:51. > :50:53.Well, no, I have to say, actually, this is way more interesting,

:50:54. > :50:56.with the greatest of respect, than the original drumbeat,

:50:57. > :51:09.Traditional music, you have a piece which you lock down,

:51:10. > :51:18.You're locking down a kind of piece of it.

:51:19. > :51:21.It's almost like you're taking this, or part of it, and you're locking

:51:22. > :51:26.that down, this is how I might want the piece to be but I don't mind

:51:27. > :51:33.I'm trying to kind of make a version of me in the software,

:51:34. > :51:38.I'm always interested in what is at the edge of my taste

:51:39. > :51:40.envelope, if you like, and randomness is a way

:51:41. > :51:44.Have you ever thought about whether you can copyright

:51:45. > :51:47.Yeah, that's an interesting question.

:51:48. > :51:50.If you sell the app to somebody, do they own the music that comes

:51:51. > :51:53.Because they've constructed it, in a way.

:51:54. > :51:56.All the bits are mine, but the final construction

:51:57. > :52:04.I don't think it's very easy to make a case for saying

:52:05. > :52:08.it's my music, because it sort of is in a modern sense

:52:09. > :52:18.We spent about an hour with Eno and in the next few days,

:52:19. > :52:20.you can see more inside Brian's brain online.

:52:21. > :52:28.This week, Samsung launched its latest mobile phones.

:52:29. > :52:32.Just a few minutes to go until the launch starts

:52:33. > :52:35.and there's an incredible level of secrecy here but I guess

:52:36. > :52:38.there is a lot at stake for Samsung after the Note 7 debacle,

:52:39. > :52:52.we're just waiting to see what the S8 has in store for us.

:52:53. > :52:54.Soon the hype turned to cold hard facts.

:52:55. > :52:57.Out of this Samsung Unboxed event, a phone...

:52:58. > :53:01.So here we have it - the S8 and the S8 plus.

:53:02. > :53:08.Not even the Plus seems to be that large.

:53:09. > :53:11.That's because the screens on both of them curve over the edges.

:53:12. > :53:13.There's been a lot of hype about this.

:53:14. > :53:18.Personally, I'm not really sure it feels like that big a deal,

:53:19. > :53:21.but it does mean that you get a screen which is bigger,

:53:22. > :53:27.So a few of the features that we've been told about today,

:53:28. > :53:33.there's the fingerprint scanner, as well as iris

:53:34. > :53:35.and facial recognition, meaning you should not need

:53:36. > :53:39.a password but should still be able to achieve all the security

:53:40. > :53:42.There's also what they call an invisible home button,

:53:43. > :53:49.But as you press it you can feel some sensation.

:53:50. > :53:56.One thing we have heard a lot of talk about is the launch of Bixby.

:53:57. > :53:58.When fully functioning, the virtual assistant aims to make

:53:59. > :54:03.Interacting with ten Samsung apps, controlling other Samsung devices -

:54:04. > :54:06.yes, there is a theme here - and using artificial intelligence

:54:07. > :54:13.to learn your habits and suggest what you might be looking for next.

:54:14. > :54:17.So, naturally, I want to test this new personal assistant,

:54:18. > :54:20.but there's one substantial problem - Bixby is currently only

:54:21. > :54:28.It's not until May that it'll be released in American English,

:54:29. > :54:32.and then after that some other languages are going to follow.

:54:33. > :54:35.So it may well be great, but I can't tell you about it.

:54:36. > :54:38.In the meantime, the image recognition function is in action.

:54:39. > :54:41.You photograph an item and it aims to find it for you online,

:54:42. > :55:01.The phone will be released this month from $650.

:55:02. > :55:04.The company believe they will see explosive sales, but let's hope

:55:05. > :55:16.Now, to cyborgs and when Hollywood imagines them they look way too

:55:17. > :55:20.futuristic to be anywhere close to becoming a reality.

:55:21. > :55:23.They did not save your life, they stole it.

:55:24. > :55:31.Dan Simmons has a very special appointment with Professor Someya

:55:32. > :55:55.I have come to see a professor who is apparently going to turn me

:55:56. > :56:05.It's one of the first times a camera crew have been allowed in to see

:56:06. > :56:08.the process happen, and it's all going to take place

:56:09. > :56:17.This research team have come up with the world's thinnest organic

:56:18. > :56:22.Lighter than a feather, they could be worn like

:56:23. > :56:26.Either monitoring the body or as an e-skin display.

:56:27. > :56:30.We can introduce the electronic functions directly on the surface

:56:31. > :56:37.of the skin, without causing any discomfort.

:56:38. > :56:43.This is human and machine coming together?

:56:44. > :56:46.The display they are putting on to me has taken three days

:56:47. > :56:54.to manufacture, so the research team are being very careful.

:56:55. > :56:56.Its thickness is just two to three microns.

:56:57. > :56:59.The magic is controlled by polymer semiconductors and transparent

:57:00. > :57:01.electrodes, with organic semiconductors and diodes firing

:57:02. > :57:17.They can scrunch them and, on rubber, even stretch of them.

:57:18. > :57:19.The circuits still work, and that's something I've come

:57:20. > :57:24.Professor Someya has used this e-skin to measure heart rate

:57:25. > :57:30.Is it robust enough to go running with, for example?

:57:31. > :57:32.Yeah, so, first, please move your hands.

:57:33. > :57:36.It doesn't cause any mechanical failure.

:57:37. > :57:46.Would you expect us to change this every two or three days?

:57:47. > :57:51.So if we can manufacture everything very cheap,

:57:52. > :57:54.so after you go to the shower and then delaminate your skin,

:57:55. > :58:15.This is just a single digit display today,

:58:16. > :58:20.So, the second step will be much multiple digits and then

:58:21. > :58:27.going to the high-definition display.

:58:28. > :58:35.Yes, 1,000 pixels, that's technologically possible.

:58:36. > :58:39.So on our hand, so we could, what, talk to people?

:58:40. > :58:48.This could be a picture of my mum, for example?

:58:49. > :58:51.I could say, "Hi, Mum, and my Mum would appear

:58:52. > :58:54.Yes, that would be possible in the future, maybe four

:58:55. > :59:05.But lifestyle will be the biggest issues.

:59:06. > :59:15.This is the start of the rise of the cyborgs.

:59:16. > :59:23.That's it for the short version of Click this week.

:59:24. > :59:31.The full version is on iPlayer for you to enjoy.

:59:32. > :59:36.There is much more from Brian Eno coming soon as well,

:59:37. > :00:13.Hello, this is Breakfast, with Charlie Stayt and Sally Nugent

:00:14. > :00:15.Anger over Gibraltar's role in the coming Brexit negotiations.

:00:16. > :00:18.Spain says it wants a separate deal on its future.

:00:19. > :00:21.Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson says the UK will be rock-like

:00:22. > :00:38.Good morning, it's Saturday the first of April

:00:39. > :00:44.Minimum pay for workers aged 25 and over goes up from today -

:00:45. > :00:47.the government says around two million people will benefit

:00:48. > :00:51.Scotland increases the number of IVF cycles available to couples

:00:52. > :01:07.Johanna Konta repairs to face Caroline Wozniacki the final of the

:01:08. > :01:09.Miami open, chasing her third title. In the men's final, Federer will

:01:10. > :01:21.play Rafael Nadal. House sounds made by the Humber

:01:22. > :01:23.Bridge have been transformed into a piece of music for visitors to

:01:24. > :01:32.listen to as they walk along. The weekend looks a little bit and

:01:33. > :01:34.it is. Some of us may have to run to cover today from few showers but

:01:35. > :01:36.tomorrow is looking mostly sunny. Tensions are rising over Gibraltar's

:01:37. > :01:40.position during Brexit, after the EU gave Spain a potential

:01:41. > :01:43.veto on any future deal Last night, the government said it

:01:44. > :01:51.would stand up for Gibraltar's The enclave has accused Spain

:01:52. > :01:56.of trying to manipulate discussions, in order to further its 300-year-old

:01:57. > :01:58.sovereignty claims. Gibraltar has been in

:01:59. > :02:10.British hands in 1713. but rejects any Spanish

:02:11. > :02:14.claim of sovereignty. The current proposals mean

:02:15. > :02:16.a deal between the UK and the EU would not apply

:02:17. > :02:19.to Gibraltar without an additional Gibraltar's chief minister has

:02:20. > :02:27.rejected this as an attempt by Spain to encroach on the rock's ability

:02:28. > :02:31.to control its sovereignty. It is unfair and unnecessary

:02:32. > :02:41.and clearly discriminatory. I am grateful Spain has been foolish

:02:42. > :02:45.enough to play this card early in this process and

:02:46. > :02:47.not at five minutes to midnight with an agreement in

:02:48. > :02:50.place, bar the issue of Gibraltar. The British government has been

:02:51. > :02:53.quick to affirm its commitment Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson

:02:54. > :02:56.tweeted that the UK remains implacable and rocklike

:02:57. > :02:59.in our support for Gibraltar. But these are draft proposals,

:03:00. > :03:02.due to be finalised Theresa May has until then

:03:03. > :03:08.to try to persuade them to drop Our political correspondent

:03:09. > :03:30.Matt Cole is in our London studio. It seems these convocations will get

:03:31. > :03:36.even worse? Yes, a fly in the ointment. The British government

:03:37. > :03:41.probably could have done without it at this stage. Yesterday we got the

:03:42. > :03:45.first response from the European Union to the Article 50 notification

:03:46. > :03:52.letter that was handed in on Wednesday. Yesterday the EU Council

:03:53. > :03:56.president set out his basic sorts on how he thought the EU should

:03:57. > :03:59.negotiate these proceedings. He did say then that he thought things

:04:00. > :04:05.would be complex and potentially confrontational at times. I don't

:04:06. > :04:08.think anyone probably thought they would get quite so confrontational

:04:09. > :04:13.quite so quickly. Of course, these are just draft proposals from the

:04:14. > :04:22.European Union at this point in time. The other 27 heads of state

:04:23. > :04:25.and government will need in April to thrash out their final negotiating

:04:26. > :04:29.stance and for the issue of job roles are being raised, well, Spain

:04:30. > :04:31.has asserted it for now. We'll have to see if you will make the final

:04:32. > :04:32.cut later on. Two million people are set

:04:33. > :04:35.for a pay rise today, as the national living wage goes

:04:36. > :04:38.up to ?7.50 an hour. The change has been broadly

:04:39. > :04:40.welcomed by unions. But employers have expressed

:04:41. > :04:42.concern about the strain Here's our business

:04:43. > :04:58.correspondent Joe Lynam. 23-year-old Lewis has already paid

:04:59. > :05:01.more than the national living wager by his employer. He notices the

:05:02. > :05:07.difference from his previous company. I was struggling for money.

:05:08. > :05:12.It was a concern for me. It was very much go to work, come back, night in

:05:13. > :05:17.front of the television. Now I can afford to have a social life and I

:05:18. > :05:23.can afford to do stuff in the local area. Enjoy myself a little more.

:05:24. > :05:29.From today, all workers over 25 must be paid at least ?7 50 an hour. If

:05:30. > :05:35.you work a full week, you will now receive a least ?281. But employers

:05:36. > :05:40.are worried. A members were already Heyington their staff more. But for

:05:41. > :05:45.those who weren't, it adds significant cost to their business,

:05:46. > :05:50.around ?900 of the year and a further ?120 a year with the

:05:51. > :05:53.knock-on consequences for National Insurance payments as well. Much of

:05:54. > :05:57.that cost will be absorbed by the business itself rather than passing

:05:58. > :06:00.it on in the form of prices. That is not the only change. Controversial

:06:01. > :06:05.business rates come into force today. While most companies will be

:06:06. > :06:09.paying less, some faith much higher bills, especially in the south-east.

:06:10. > :06:11.In the new system for calculating car tax begins. Hybrid owners will

:06:12. > :06:13.be paying more than they did. Around 4,000 households in England

:06:14. > :06:15.earning more than ?100,000 a year have received taxpayers'

:06:16. > :06:18.money to help them buy a home. Official figures also reveal

:06:33. > :06:38.for fertility treatment in Scotland will be eligible for three full

:06:39. > :06:44.cycles of IVF treatment. From today, the Scottish government

:06:45. > :06:47.is increasing the number of cycles funded by the health

:06:48. > :06:49.service for women under 40 It's expected to cost

:06:50. > :06:53.about ?1 million a year. It is thought that around one

:06:54. > :06:58.in seven couples experience In Scotland, up until now,

:06:59. > :07:04.women under 40 have been offered two cycles

:07:05. > :07:07.of IVF on the NHS. Older women between 40 and 42

:07:08. > :07:15.will also be offered one cycle In other parts of the UK,

:07:16. > :07:22.the number of IVF cycles on the NHS for

:07:23. > :07:25.women under 40 varies. In England, up to three full

:07:26. > :07:27.cycles are recommended. But local commissioning

:07:28. > :07:34.groups decide, and of half the areas in England,

:07:35. > :07:37.only one cycle is offered. In Wales women under 40

:07:38. > :07:41.are entitled to two cycles. The IVF programme in Scotland

:07:42. > :07:49.is expected to cost the NHS around Money which has already

:07:50. > :07:54.been put aside. The minister says changes to IVF

:09:59. > :10:02.entitled to up to 45%. According to the latest figures,

:10:03. > :10:05.the number of landlords There are currently 1.75 million

:10:06. > :10:12.in the UK. In total they banked more

:10:13. > :10:15.than ?14 billion in rent 87% of them are individuals and most

:10:16. > :10:22.only own one property. The government says these changes

:10:23. > :10:25.to the tax system will create a level playing field

:10:26. > :10:27.between regular homeowners and buy With us now is Chris Town,

:10:28. > :10:34.the vice chairman of the Residential

:10:35. > :10:44.Landlords Association What do you think the impact of this

:10:45. > :10:51.will be? Clearly the impact will be upward pressure on rents because

:10:52. > :10:54.landlords are increasing the tax burden significantly, so, the direct

:10:55. > :11:00.result you say that many people will need to be more in rent? There are a

:11:01. > :11:04.number of results. Rent is one thing. This investment by landlords

:11:05. > :11:07.whose business model now will not work because instead of the interest

:11:08. > :11:14.being allowable against tax it is now going to be taxed. It will

:11:15. > :11:18.increase cost significantly for some people, particularly those with loan

:11:19. > :11:25.to value rate. They will be affected first and they will need to

:11:26. > :11:30.disinvest for this takes effect. The current tax system gives a buy to

:11:31. > :11:35.let landlords an advantage over regular landlords. You can see that

:11:36. > :11:39.that is not quite there? That is the view of the Treasury. In fact,

:11:40. > :11:42.landlords pay more tax than homeowners, clearly. Of the

:11:43. > :11:49.homeowner sells a property, and does not pay any tax on the profit that

:11:50. > :11:54.is made on the sale. So if it was purchased for 25,000, sold for 30,

:11:55. > :11:58.there is no tax paid. If it is a landlord, they must pay tax on that

:11:59. > :12:02.capital increase. But could you argue that a landlord is more likely

:12:03. > :12:07.to have one property and home owners are less likely to sell a property

:12:08. > :12:10.regularly? Of course. It is a business and it should be treated

:12:11. > :12:16.like all other businesses. All other businesses that can deduct interest

:12:17. > :12:21.cost of finance from their profit. This new tax will change that. It is

:12:22. > :12:27.the only business that is affected by these changes. You probably come

:12:28. > :12:31.across as this already with people who do not have a lot of sympathy

:12:32. > :12:35.with the landlords were many properties. We are not talking about

:12:36. > :12:39.people with one rented property or maybe two, we are talking about

:12:40. > :12:43.those who are far more than that. The whole, I don't think people will

:12:44. > :12:47.have sympathy for the idea. The maybe profit margins are slightly

:12:48. > :12:52.less. It is probably more the other way around, to be honest. People

:12:53. > :12:56.with a lot of property generally have been in the business for many

:12:57. > :13:01.years and have a lower loan to value rate that they will be less

:13:02. > :13:10.affected. They have more properties to cover the increase in tax. People

:13:11. > :13:16.with one property, so, for instance, someone is working and they earn

:13:17. > :13:22.about 35,000 a year. There little portfolio costs about ?10,000 year

:13:23. > :13:27.in interest. That was deductible against tax until Thursday. After

:13:28. > :13:33.Thursday that deduction goes into their profit pot so that lifts them

:13:34. > :13:40.from a basic rate to a higher rate of tax at 40%. That is when this

:13:41. > :13:43.change kicks in. It does not affect basic rate taxpayers but many

:13:44. > :13:49.people, unknown to them, probably, will be subject to this increase in

:13:50. > :13:59.tax. What will make it fairer, for you? One of our proposals has been

:14:00. > :14:03.that if this were to be implemented just for new borrowing so that

:14:04. > :14:08.landlords purchasing new properties adding to supply, new mortgages on

:14:09. > :14:13.those properties, this could be applied to those. But, of course,

:14:14. > :14:19.went people purchased properties years ago, that was a different

:14:20. > :14:22.model. The tax changes, it is a radical change to the business

:14:23. > :14:26.model. We will leave it there from now. Thank you very much.

:15:05. > :15:07.Viaduct on the reopened Settle It looks like the train on the way

:15:08. > :15:21.to Hogwarts. How is it looking?

:15:22. > :15:24.Looking a little bit mixed. It is the same bridge as the one from

:15:25. > :15:30.Harry Potter. It might be! I think so. Weatherwise

:15:31. > :15:35.today, a mixed bag on the way. We have damp weather around this

:15:36. > :15:38.morning. It is wet across some parts of Wales, the Northwest of England

:15:39. > :15:44.and around Yorkshire with had rain. Today it's a case of dodging the

:15:45. > :15:48.showers and there will be quite a few of them brewing. If you've got

:15:49. > :15:52.clear, blue skies right now, what you'll find in the coming hours is

:15:53. > :16:00.the clouds will start to bubble up. Then they will in turn become this

:16:01. > :16:06.shower clouds. If you look at the forecast, this is lunchtime.

:16:07. > :16:11.Basically they form inland and grow upwards, the clouds, then you get

:16:12. > :16:16.these showers. They are in about five miles across. In another town

:16:17. > :16:20.it might be sunny. And they move around, so it will be very hit and

:16:21. > :16:26.miss. Hail and thunder a possibility. First the showers will

:16:27. > :16:31.form in the west, then in the east. So we will get them at different

:16:32. > :16:36.times. This evening and overnight, because the sun drives the showers,

:16:37. > :16:40.the showers die off and we have a clear night. Pretty chilly in

:16:41. > :16:46.Yorkshire, northwards. The chance of a bit of grass frost, but that's it.

:16:47. > :16:50.Sunday, a very different day. We aren't expecting these showers and

:16:51. > :16:55.it will change completely on Sunday. High pressure builds and stopped the

:16:56. > :16:58.showers from forming. So we are forecasting a mostly sunny day for

:16:59. > :17:03.nippy in the morning, sunny, very light winds. We are in this nice

:17:04. > :17:10.spell of weather. Temperatures of about 17 in London. For most of us,

:17:11. > :17:17.about 13- 14. Two very different days this weekend. Today we have

:17:18. > :17:21.April showers. Chilly tonight, once the showers clear away, and Sunday

:17:22. > :17:26.is looking absolutely fine. That's it.

:17:27. > :17:31.Thank you very much. Absolutely fine, that's good to know!

:17:32. > :17:37.Shall we have a look at some of the front pages of the newspapers? The

:17:38. > :17:46.Times have a story about Google and corporation tax. Inland Revenue will

:17:47. > :17:52.be hit with a big bill, from Google. So they've agreed to repay that

:17:53. > :17:57.money despite the government saying they will call more cash from

:17:58. > :18:06.Internat giant. -- internet. And there is a story of Prince Charles

:18:07. > :18:15.on The Daily Mail. This is suggesting Prince Charles tried to

:18:16. > :18:20.halt the American invasion of Afghanistan. They say they made this

:18:21. > :18:22.plea to the US ambassador to London for weeks into the military

:18:23. > :18:26.operation. The Daily Telegraph has a story

:18:27. > :18:35.about MPs a posture the expense is. They say there has been a data

:18:36. > :18:38.breach. -- MPs' expenses. They say confidential information has been

:18:39. > :18:42.leaked on Thursday night. On the front page of the Daily

:18:43. > :18:49.Mirror, a very personal account. These are the words of Linda Nolan,

:18:50. > :18:55.who is suffering from cancer at the moment. And to pick up on some of

:18:56. > :19:00.the inside pages, Mirror and many of the papers are looking at this story

:19:01. > :19:07.about Gibraltar and the reference to it as part of the EU Brexit

:19:08. > :19:12.negotiations, which has angered many people, especially those who live on

:19:13. > :19:15.Gibraltar. We will be talking a little bit about that later in the

:19:16. > :19:18.programme. It's funny how history continues to

:19:19. > :19:29.rumble on. It wasn't long ago that the plight

:19:30. > :19:31.of migrants trying to enter Eastern Europe was regularly in the

:19:32. > :19:38.programme. An agreement between Turkey and the

:19:39. > :19:42.EU has reduced that flow, but there are still many seeking asylum.

:19:43. > :19:50.This container camp is still empty. There's space for 250 asylum

:19:51. > :19:54.seekers. So far it is home to just two families. The government says it

:19:55. > :19:58.is locking them up to close a loophole, to stop those who seek

:19:59. > :20:05.asylum in Hungary slipping away deep into Europe. But detaining asylum

:20:06. > :20:11.seekers automatically is illegal. They should never become a legal,

:20:12. > :20:17.but they are treated as illegal from the first moment. So whereas the

:20:18. > :20:21.European Union Law requires them to accept that they have a right to

:20:22. > :20:26.stay until the first decision, they are treated first as if they are

:20:27. > :20:30.legal, second as if they have not entered Hungary. According to the

:20:31. > :20:34.reception centre, call it account, by building a tug Erin authorities

:20:35. > :20:39.have issued a direct challenge to the international community. No one

:20:40. > :20:44.can tell us, they say, how to deal with asylum seekers. This is the

:20:45. > :20:49.food warehouse, one of two. Just across the Serbian border,

:20:50. > :20:53.volunteers provide food to refugees. There used to rest here on their way

:20:54. > :21:02.to Hungary. Now they are looking for alternative path. This is a time of

:21:03. > :21:08.experimentation. They are trying to see if there are any better routes,

:21:09. > :21:12.many have gone back to Belgrade to get a rest. In this ruined factory

:21:13. > :21:17.on the edge of the town, this Pakistani refugee contemplates his

:21:18. > :21:21.next move. Maybe I will try for the Croatian side or the Romanian side,

:21:22. > :21:27.because this border is now totally closed, so they built another fence.

:21:28. > :21:32.That's where the problem lies. Hungary at great cost had sealed its

:21:33. > :21:34.southern border, so this man and his friends plan to travel through

:21:35. > :21:41.Remainiac instead. -- Rumania. Autism affects one

:21:42. > :21:43.in every 100 people. It is a condition that is

:21:44. > :21:46.often misunderstood. But a new course designed

:21:47. > :21:49.for teachers and carers is hoping to equip people with the knowledge

:21:50. > :21:52.and skills to better support We'll hear more about the programme

:21:53. > :21:58.in a minute, first let's hear from the author Laura James,

:21:59. > :22:14.who spoke to Breakfast -- lets here actually straight from

:22:15. > :22:20.Mark, who is a researcher at the University of Bath. This is a tricky

:22:21. > :22:25.programme because still is now it is misunderstood a lot of the time.

:22:26. > :22:30.Absolutely. Tomorrow is Autism Awareness Day, so thank you for

:22:31. > :22:35.having me on to raise awareness. It is stepping beyond awareness and to

:22:36. > :22:38.appreciation. What is autism? Our online course is free for everyone

:22:39. > :22:44.and it is really to develop the understanding of what autism is. It

:22:45. > :22:48.is set out in an accessible way so people can understand exactly what

:22:49. > :22:53.they want to understand. Give us a snapshot. What are the resources

:22:54. > :22:58.available? There are many resources. We have videos. People can just

:22:59. > :23:03.watch us talking about what autism is at the cutting edge research

:23:04. > :23:07.we've taken to understand autism. There are also limits on learning

:23:08. > :23:12.difficulties. That's a very neglected area. Importantly the

:23:13. > :23:16.course focuses on what technologies are available to help people with

:23:17. > :23:20.autism and how can teachers and parents best support children with

:23:21. > :23:25.autism. What is there to help? There are many technologies, thousands of

:23:26. > :23:29.apps available. The question isn't whether there is technology, but how

:23:30. > :23:34.do you find the best technology to help your child with autism? There's

:23:35. > :23:38.a programme we are developing, that is available through the online

:23:39. > :23:42.course, and it helps to identify what your child can and can't do.

:23:43. > :23:48.That will inform what apps are most appropriate. We often talk to people

:23:49. > :23:56.and parents who have autism and one of the practical problems they face

:23:57. > :24:04.is about resources in the community. That's almost a separate problem.

:24:05. > :24:08.Yours is a resource-based issue. Presumably the idea is that can lead

:24:09. > :24:12.them to the right places to get help. If that part of the idea?

:24:13. > :24:16.There are resources available for people with autism and the internet

:24:17. > :24:20.is in itself a huge resource. There is a wealth of digital resources out

:24:21. > :24:24.there to help people, but it's knowing about them, knowing how to

:24:25. > :24:27.use them and knowing which ones are best. Technology itself can be

:24:28. > :24:35.hugely beneficial in helping people with autism. If you are caring for

:24:36. > :24:40.someone, child or adult, with autism, and as we know things at

:24:41. > :24:44.times can get incredibly stressful and difficult and your patience can

:24:45. > :24:48.be tested. What is there in that moment when your child is perhaps

:24:49. > :24:55.having a meltdown, what is it in that moment that can help? When you

:24:56. > :24:59.are in the moment it is very hard to draw upon the appropriate resources.

:25:00. > :25:04.A lot of what we try to do is plan to avoid those moments and prepared

:25:05. > :25:08.for those moments. It can be very difficult to change the behaviour of

:25:09. > :25:11.children with autism, so why to focus on changing their behaviour

:25:12. > :25:17.is? Why not prepare yourself? What can you do? It is about being in the

:25:18. > :25:21.right state of mind and knowing in advance what might occur and what

:25:22. > :25:25.the potential solutions are. There are lots of stress reducing

:25:26. > :25:29.strategies. Knowing what they are and being educated and informed

:25:30. > :25:33.about that in itself can help reduce stress and can increase your

:25:34. > :25:37.confidence. You then know how you can address the situation. How do

:25:38. > :25:47.people go about accessing this website? You can come to the

:25:48. > :25:53.website. It is called Future Learn and is all about matching technology

:25:54. > :25:56.with autism. Come and join us in the learning journey. Thank you.

:32:07. > :32:30.The past winter, one of the mildest in living memory has had effects in

:32:31. > :32:35.other ways as well. Most important of all, it has resulted in an

:32:36. > :32:36.exceptionally heavy spaghetti crop. This is Panorama's famous

:32:37. > :32:38.Spaghetti tree report. The three minute broadcast

:32:39. > :32:41.was watched by eight million people. Unfortunately some viewers failed

:32:42. > :32:44.to see the funny side, but others were so intrigued

:32:45. > :32:47.they contacted the BBC to ask where they could purchase

:32:48. > :32:57.their very own tree. If it works, it always upset

:32:58. > :33:05.somebody, doesn't it? But as far as I know, we are not running one this

:33:06. > :33:10.year. Or are we...? Good morning. We are talking about Johanna Konta car.

:33:11. > :33:15.Would she will face Caroline Wozniacki in the final of the Miami

:33:16. > :33:19.open and it will be a good one. She defeated Venus Williams in the

:33:20. > :33:23.previous round. Two great finals as war because overnight Nick Kyrgios

:33:24. > :33:29.was defeated by Roger Federer. That means Federer against Rafael Nadal

:33:30. > :33:35.another epic. If you cast back a year or so ago and you said that the

:33:36. > :33:39.two biggest matches of this year would be between Rafael Nadal and

:33:40. > :33:46.Roger Federer, you would say no, cannot happen. Especially since you

:33:47. > :33:52.thought Andy Murray versus Djokovic would be the emerging rivalry. So,

:33:53. > :33:53.yeah, two great finals on the way today.

:33:54. > :33:55.Konta the first British woman to reach the final,

:33:56. > :33:57.after beating Venus Williams in Thursday's semis.

:33:58. > :34:05.And she's expecting a tough match against the former world number one.

:34:06. > :34:13.Most important will be to enjoy the occasion a little more. It is a

:34:14. > :34:18.great tournament to be a part of until the very end and is something

:34:19. > :34:24.we work hard for, for opportunities like this. I play some incredibly

:34:25. > :34:27.tough opponent and someone who has been around for quite a long time

:34:28. > :34:33.now. I think it will be good enjoyment for the challenge.

:34:34. > :34:35.It's perhaps the news we've been expecting after his ongoing

:35:28. > :35:32.themselves champions proper after Aberdeen defeated Dundee. Had they

:35:33. > :35:37.lost, they would have been crowned champions. It is not often you see a

:35:38. > :35:40.defender score a hat-trick. We did last night. 4-0 just before

:35:41. > :35:47.half-time. Celtic at 22 points clear at the top. A win against hearts

:35:48. > :35:56.will clinch the title. That was his team's seventh goal. -- Harts. Two

:35:57. > :36:00.key players are missing for Liverpool. They will be without

:36:01. > :36:04.Jordan Henderson and Adam. What a match this weekend. Let's hear from

:36:05. > :36:08.both managers. Jurgen Klopp has been impressed with the way today's

:36:09. > :36:15.opponents have been playing. They have a very good run, a good run and

:36:16. > :36:20.did not lose a lot of games in the last few weeks or months. They good

:36:21. > :36:26.result, obviously confident but, yeah, nobody should underestimate

:36:27. > :36:32.the power. Whenever we play at Enfield we need to create a special

:36:33. > :36:44.atmosphere. It is the mid-season, a new game, new season, new manager.

:36:45. > :36:50.And I don't know why... I heard a little about the last two seasons at

:36:51. > :36:54.Everton that maybe they were afraid to play against Liverpool but why

:36:55. > :36:58.you need to be afraid to play against Liverpool, I do not

:36:59. > :37:04.understand that. Can anyone stop at Chelsea? The league leaders can

:37:05. > :37:08.extend their ten point lead at the top when they play Crystal Palace.

:37:09. > :37:16.There is another derby at teatime, the South Coast derby. Southampton

:37:17. > :37:21.meeting Bournemouth, neck and neck in the league. We just heard from

:37:22. > :37:30.the Everton manager there who witnessed his defender suffer a

:37:31. > :37:34.nasty double leg break against Wales while on international duty. Now he

:37:35. > :37:38.is at the centre of a row after accusing the national coach of not

:37:39. > :37:41.protecting his player while he was away from his club side, plane trees

:37:42. > :37:45.country. O'Neill responded calling the Everton manager eight master

:37:46. > :37:52.tactician of the blame game. -- playing for his country. Derby

:37:53. > :38:01.County of left their hopes alive. Gary marked his first home game with

:38:02. > :38:08.a win. Derby are now six points away from Sheffield. In the Super League,

:38:09. > :38:11.tigers remain top on points difference after they thrashed

:38:12. > :38:22.Huddersfield. The rhinos have moved to second with 26- 18 victory. They

:38:23. > :38:28.ran in two tries in the second half. There are fourth win in a row. So

:38:29. > :38:32.all eyes then are on your and conquer and her match later. It gets

:38:33. > :38:37.under way at six o'clock, fingers crossed. She is the first British

:38:38. > :38:45.woman to play in the final of the Miami open tennis tournament but can

:38:46. > :38:48.she really do well this time and win the actual title? Let's speak it now

:38:49. > :38:56.to the Fed cup captain, the former British number one. Good morning.

:38:57. > :38:59.Looking ahead a little bit too the game today. Join a contrary is

:39:00. > :39:06.playing quite confidently, what do you think about her chances? I think

:39:07. > :39:09.she has a wonderful chance against Caroline Wozniacki today. They

:39:10. > :39:12.played at the Australian Open earlier this year and your huh

:39:13. > :39:17.no-one convincingly. She is full of confidence. This is the biggest

:39:18. > :39:25.final of her career and there is a lot to play for. Can you tell us

:39:26. > :39:28.about her opponent? What is her form like? Caroline Wozniacki has been

:39:29. > :39:32.playing equally as well over the past few weeks. She has won a lot of

:39:33. > :39:36.matches and made back-to-back finals last month during the Middle East

:39:37. > :39:40.swing and she is feeling confident. She had a great win in the

:39:41. > :39:44.semifinals but I do think that Johanna's level and type of tennis

:39:45. > :39:47.right now is different to that of Caroline and she has the game and

:39:48. > :39:51.the weapons to hurt her opponent today. Tell us a little bit about

:39:52. > :39:57.Johanna more generally. In tennis you get some players who begin

:39:58. > :40:03.young, they have a moment in time when they are 17 or 18... The career

:40:04. > :40:06.of Johanna is different. She is hitting her prime now, isn't she

:40:07. > :40:15.question but she is, what? 25 question mark that is correct. She

:40:16. > :40:18.has hit her prime. You need to look at somebody like Angelique Kerber,

:40:19. > :40:22.the current world number one who won her first two Grand slams last year.

:40:23. > :40:26.She achieved the world number one ranking for the first time last year

:40:27. > :40:30.and she did that in her late 20s. We see the trend in women's tennis now,

:40:31. > :40:34.more and more players are starting to hit their peak in their mid to

:40:35. > :40:38.late 20s and they are still playing high-level tennis well into their

:40:39. > :40:43.30s which is something we never really used to see ten or 20 years

:40:44. > :40:47.ago. I just think the game has moved on so much. It is far more physical

:40:48. > :40:52.but mentally players look after themselves a lot better and there is

:40:53. > :40:55.more longevity now and the women's game. It is interesting that you say

:40:56. > :40:59.but mentally players look after themselves a lot better. I have seen

:41:00. > :41:05.Johanna say herself but mentally was where she struggled in the past and

:41:06. > :41:09.she did not have the right frame of mind for big matches. What changed

:41:10. > :41:16.for her? How has she worked on it? She certainly trust herself. She

:41:17. > :41:21.worked with a sports psychologist a lot and, you know, she knows how to

:41:22. > :41:26.control her emotions far better. There is a lot of stuff, Johanna

:41:27. > :41:29.will admit herself that she can be high maintenance and a little

:41:30. > :41:33.tricky. But, you know, she knows how to manage everything, she trusts and

:41:34. > :41:37.believes in a game, she is working on the right things stay in and day

:41:38. > :41:41.out and as a tennis player, you know, the game is so mental these

:41:42. > :41:45.days. You need to be able to trust yourself and, really, execute in the

:41:46. > :41:48.heat of the moment. And also understand that you are not always

:41:49. > :41:55.going to have a great week. There will be difficult times but you need

:41:56. > :41:59.to come back, back yourself and try and reduce the best you can on any

:42:00. > :42:03.given day. By a skewer question that I am sure you will dread in a way,

:42:04. > :42:06.on the behalf of Johanna, if we pull Wimbledon into the conversation and,

:42:07. > :42:10.for many people, tennis is about Wimbledon and they love the idea of

:42:11. > :42:12.a British player going into that tournament, playing confidently as

:42:13. > :42:19.Johanna is now. Could you say anything in relation to that? Well,

:42:20. > :42:26.Wimbledon... Wimbledon is where many players like to make their mark.

:42:27. > :42:29.Wimbledon is... That it captures the imagination of so many people in

:42:30. > :42:34.this country can help play a's profile. And, you know, and this

:42:35. > :42:37.year Johanna will be going into Wimbledon hopefully is a top-10

:42:38. > :42:41.player which will be a first for her, possibly even a top five

:42:42. > :42:45.player. Who knows what can happen over the next few months leading up.

:42:46. > :42:51.She will be full of confidence. She has a great game that can do damage

:42:52. > :42:56.on the grass. We saw that last year. And, you know, like us, she is

:42:57. > :42:58.capable of producing great tennis. Hopefully that will happen at

:42:59. > :43:03.Wimbledon but hopefully will happen today and happen at the Fed cup for

:43:04. > :43:06.next month. I was just going to mention that, you are Fed cup

:43:07. > :43:11.captain. What is true MacWrite to work with? She is brilliant, as are

:43:12. > :43:16.the rest of the players on the team. We have a difficult time coming up

:43:17. > :43:21.against Romania, away on clay which is the least comfortable surface for

:43:22. > :43:26.our players. And the Romanians will have an incredibly Petra Kvitova

:43:27. > :43:31.crowd behind but working with Johanna, being part of the Fed cup

:43:32. > :43:35.team, she is a great team player and we have a great team spirit, we are

:43:36. > :43:39.looking forward to this tie against Romania where hopefully we can get a

:43:40. > :43:43.place in the world group. We have a great team, but we are the massive

:43:44. > :43:49.underdogs against the Romanians who have top players on their side. It

:43:50. > :43:56.is lovely to talk to you. I am sure we will be watching and listening

:43:57. > :44:01.tonight. I loved the little line in their how Johanna can be high

:44:02. > :44:04.maintenance and tricky at timess. Aren't all the best people? A

:44:05. > :44:11.reminder, you can follow the commentary on BBC sport website from

:44:12. > :44:13.six o'clock. It is 744 exactly. You are watching breakfast from BBC

:44:14. > :44:16.News. Our main story this morning... You're watching

:44:17. > :44:17.Breakfast from BBC News. The main stories this morning:

:44:18. > :44:20.Britain has said it will protect Gibraltar from any sovereignty

:44:21. > :44:23.claims made by Spain A pay rise for two million people,

:44:24. > :44:36.as the national living wage rises I imagine the weather for the tennis

:44:37. > :44:40.in Miami is much nicer than it will be here over the next few days. Good

:44:41. > :44:45.morning! It will be a lot warmer. I don't

:44:46. > :44:49.have at the chance of showers in Miami is for the tennis, but quite a

:44:50. > :44:56.high chance of catching showers today. When we talk about showers

:44:57. > :45:01.and the weather, it's a real hit and miss day when the weather comes.

:45:02. > :45:05.Sort of a case of some towns and cities getting on downpour, the

:45:06. > :45:09.other is getting a few spots of rain, others having a completely dry

:45:10. > :45:16.day. The weather is all over the place. Where will they be affecting

:45:17. > :45:19.us? Say about lunchtime. We have showers developing across western

:45:20. > :45:26.areas of the UK. Not too many across the far east. Some of them could be

:45:27. > :45:30.heavy enough to bring some hail, maybe some claps of thunder around

:45:31. > :45:34.the north-west of England and the Lake District, showers scattered

:45:35. > :45:39.around across Northern Ireland and Scotland too. He had to miss. Lots

:45:40. > :45:44.of blue here and there. Moving slowly as well, so some of us could

:45:45. > :45:48.have them for a little while. Then the showers will affect eastern

:45:49. > :45:52.areas and by the time we get too dark the showers are on, so a clear

:45:53. > :45:56.night. They will only affect us through the day and in the evening

:45:57. > :46:01.it will be much clearer. A pretty nippy night on the way, not

:46:02. > :46:08.desperately cold. 7-8 in town, cold and out of town. Tomorrow morning a

:46:09. > :46:12.nippy start, with lots of sunshine. This high pressure, like a nose of

:46:13. > :46:19.high pressure coming from the south, will stop any showers from forming.

:46:20. > :46:25.Sunday is a step to be a nice day. We have the showers today, needing

:46:26. > :46:28.the umbrella is, and Sunday is a different day, very pleasant, light

:46:29. > :46:34.winds and lots of strong sunshine. Remember, the son is about as strong

:46:35. > :46:39.as it gets, so it will still burn. This summary, April showers today,

:46:40. > :46:41.chilly overnight and on Sunday another sunny day.

:46:42. > :46:45.Thank goodness! Thanks very much. Now on BBC News, it's

:46:46. > :46:47.time for Newswatch. This week, Samira Ahmed asks

:46:48. > :46:50.whether Brexit is being covered Hello and welcome to Newswatch

:46:51. > :46:58.with me, Samira Ahmed. Brexit is officially under way,

:46:59. > :47:01.but is the BBC playing down the views of unhappy Remainers,

:47:02. > :47:04.like the tens of thousands who marched through

:47:05. > :47:10.London last weekend? Plenty of complaints too

:47:11. > :47:14.that BBC News is far too negative about leaving,

:47:15. > :47:16.so how do you cover this 60 years ago last Saturday

:47:17. > :47:25.the Treaty of Rome, the founding agreement of what became

:47:26. > :47:29.the European Union, was signed. The anniversary was marked

:47:30. > :47:32.across Europe, but a march in London that day was less a celebration

:47:33. > :47:35.than a pained protest against the decision

:47:36. > :47:44.for Britain to leave the EU. REPORTER: After the violence a few,

:47:45. > :47:47.short days ago, a protest with peace Thousands made their way

:47:48. > :47:51.to Parliament Square. Many, like pensioner

:47:52. > :47:52.Jacqueline Skelton, had Many of her generation voted

:47:53. > :47:58.to leave in the referendum, but she sees that as a disaster

:47:59. > :48:03.for her home city of London. That report, which went on to hear

:48:04. > :48:07.from a number of those at the demonstration,

:48:08. > :48:09.ran on BBC London News, but BBC One's national network

:48:10. > :48:12.bulletins mentioned the march only in passing, with just ten seconds

:48:13. > :48:15.or so of footage shown. Many people complained to the BBC

:48:16. > :48:19.about what they saw as insufficient coverage, with two of those viewers

:48:20. > :48:21.recording their thoughts As Article 50 was being triggered

:48:22. > :48:31.on the 29th, I would have thought that much more credence

:48:32. > :48:33.would have been given The early evening news put

:48:34. > :48:39.the number attending I consider that there were a great

:48:40. > :48:43.deal more than this. As leaving the EU is such

:48:44. > :48:46.a momentous decision for this country, and for some of us

:48:47. > :48:50.a disaster, we should have had a lot It was disappointing, then,

:48:51. > :49:04.to find an organisation of the BBC's reputation, as supposedly

:49:05. > :49:06.an impartial reporting body, had neglected to give appropriate

:49:07. > :49:13.coverage to this huge event. I would like to know why

:49:14. > :49:16.the BBC did not deem Well, we put those points to BBC

:49:17. > :49:52.News and a spokesperson told us: That was the start of a week

:49:53. > :49:55.of television news which has been dominated by Wednesday's triggering

:49:56. > :49:58.by the government of Article 50, kickstarting officially

:49:59. > :50:04.the process of leaving the EU. The subject was extensively covered

:50:05. > :50:07.on BBC, with plenty of input from members of the public,

:50:08. > :50:10.giving their views on the UK's decision to depart and what

:50:11. > :50:12.they expected from the next It was all too much

:50:13. > :50:32.for David Robinson, who wrote: Not much chance of the BBC or any

:50:33. > :50:57.of the media leaving it alone, certainly not on Wednesday, when,

:50:58. > :51:00.in a special programme on BBC One, Andrew Neil interviewed

:51:01. > :51:02.the Prime Minister, followed by a number

:51:03. > :51:04.of other party leaders. The presenter came in for some

:51:05. > :51:07.praise for the way he conducted those interviews, including

:51:08. > :51:13.this telephone message. Thank goodness for Andrew Neil,

:51:14. > :51:16.among the very few in the BBC who keeps to strictly

:51:17. > :51:18.accurate quotations. In general, there is far too much

:51:19. > :51:20.sloppiness and bias, That allegation of bias in relation

:51:21. > :51:37.to Brexit is one we've heard since before last June's referendum

:51:38. > :51:39.and, in the past fortnight, politicians have joined

:51:40. > :51:41.in the argument, with 70 MPs writing to newspapers

:51:42. > :51:45.last week that the BBC had fallen far short of its obligation

:51:46. > :51:48.to provide balanced coverage and had skewed good economic news

:51:49. > :51:51.since the referendum. Then, on Thursday, a rival group

:51:52. > :51:54.of politicians wrote another letter, calling on the corporation to resist

:51:55. > :51:57.attempts at political interference and report fearlessly

:51:58. > :51:59.and impartially on the That divided reaction is also

:52:00. > :52:06.evident amongst Newswatch viewers, though most

:52:07. > :52:08.people we hear from side Might I suggest that just for once

:52:09. > :52:16.the BBC could be a little more up beat about our leaving

:52:17. > :52:18.the European Union? It's been so depressing

:52:19. > :52:21.having to listen to all your presenters, and God knows how

:52:22. > :52:24.many political editors you have, talking about Brexit, always,

:52:25. > :52:32.always in a negative fashion! Please, try and be

:52:33. > :52:34.a little more positive. Whether Brexit is a cause

:52:35. > :52:48.for celebration and a great opportunity for the UK

:52:49. > :52:50.to take back control, or a process which has already had

:52:51. > :52:57.negative consequences and faces substantial difficulties

:52:58. > :52:59.in the years ahead, depends But others agree that the BBC has

:53:00. > :53:04.been emphasising the latter Well, let's take a step back

:53:05. > :53:57.and examine the BBC's approach to reporting on our forthcoming

:53:58. > :54:00.departure from the European Union with the corporation's

:54:01. > :54:05.chief political adviser, As you heard, there are strong

:54:06. > :54:08.feelings on all sides. Is there something different

:54:09. > :54:11.about Brexit which makes the BBC's commitment to impartiality actually

:54:12. > :54:13.quite a new challenge? I think whenever you have

:54:14. > :54:16.a referendum, in particular, opinion becomes very polarised

:54:17. > :54:18.and views become very entrenched and it is very difficult often

:54:19. > :54:21.to appreciate or even value Leave have won and our job now

:54:22. > :54:27.is to really scrutinise carefully the execution of

:54:28. > :54:30.Brexit, if you like. How the government carries out

:54:31. > :54:32.Brexit, how it carries out the negotiations, to scrutinise

:54:33. > :54:34.not just the government That's why Andrew Neil did all these

:54:35. > :54:47.interviews this week with party leaders across the UK,

:54:48. > :54:49.but also of course to scrutinise European Union officials

:54:50. > :54:58.and politicians in Europe. So our job now is much more

:54:59. > :55:00.intricate and complicated than a simple, sort of,

:55:01. > :55:03.mathematical balance between people So that journalistic challenge

:55:04. > :55:07.is really very strong. But the audience trust the BBC to do

:55:08. > :55:11.it more than anyone else. We do get a lot of complaints,

:55:12. > :55:13.especially from pro-Brexit viewers, who feel the BBC is rerunning

:55:14. > :55:16.the referendum by always airing what might go wrong

:55:17. > :55:19.or what not work. There will be parts

:55:20. > :55:24.of the community who will have concerns about it and

:55:25. > :55:26.we should report that. I don't think every time we find

:55:27. > :55:29.someone who is optimistic or pessimistic we should suddenly

:55:30. > :55:32.have to find the opposite We're no longer in that situation

:55:33. > :55:36.of a mathematical balance. What we do have to do

:55:37. > :55:39.is report it properly, so that the audience understands

:55:40. > :55:42.what the challenges and issues are. It mustn't just be the people

:55:43. > :55:53.who are worried, it must be also the people who think

:55:54. > :55:55.there are opportunities. We heard a reference

:55:56. > :55:58.to the march last weekend, that the BBC supposedly

:55:59. > :56:00.goes to great lengths to ensure their coverage

:56:01. > :56:01.is impartial. Could you give us an insight

:56:02. > :56:04.into how you do that, how you monitor and

:56:05. > :56:06.measure impartiality? We put a lot of obligation

:56:07. > :56:09.on individual programme editors to do that and part of what I do

:56:10. > :56:13.is to help them do that. But across time, it may

:56:14. > :56:15.not be an individual programme, it may be

:56:16. > :56:17.a series of programmes, people have to think about making

:56:18. > :56:20.sure they get the range of views and that will be different

:56:21. > :56:23.for different programmes. Is that partly about a head count,

:56:24. > :56:26.or measuring air time? I think it's really important

:56:27. > :56:29.that we don't pretend you can get impartiality by the stop watch

:56:30. > :56:32.all the abacus or a calculator. You don't measure

:56:33. > :56:34.impartiality by maths. You get impartiality by really good

:56:35. > :56:36.judgement and that's what our editors are trying

:56:37. > :56:40.to do all the time. People also wonder how the BBC

:56:41. > :56:43.should be reporting a story like, say, Lloyds Bank moving

:56:44. > :56:45.jobs to Brussels. To some viewers, it is an example

:56:46. > :56:48.of emphasising the negative, when that's only one

:56:49. > :56:50.event in a big, often I think you have to make judgements

:56:51. > :57:01.on individual stories and you have to decide what level of prominence

:57:02. > :57:05.they're due and you have to take advice from the business

:57:06. > :57:07.community and so on. So, in the end, editors make

:57:08. > :57:09.judgements about those things. It is important that when you hear

:57:10. > :57:13.those stories you also hear others that might reflect something

:57:14. > :57:15.from a different perspective. After all, this is going

:57:16. > :57:18.on for a long time. Over the next couple of years

:57:19. > :57:23.of negotiations there will be many examples of this and I think it's

:57:24. > :57:26.quite right that editors should be challenged to think about a wide

:57:27. > :57:30.range of views, not just those stories that you've heard talked

:57:31. > :57:32.about by viewers today. On the other hand, many viewers have

:57:33. > :57:36.got in touch with Newswath to say any criticism, any critics

:57:37. > :57:42.of Brexit, are labelled Remainers and they feel the BBC is cowed

:57:43. > :57:46.by the political criticism, notably from MPs who complained

:57:47. > :57:48.to the director-general. One MP actually said this week that

:57:49. > :57:55.relying on MPs to be arbiters of impartiality was a bit

:57:56. > :57:58.like asking Sir Alex Ferguson to referee a home

:57:59. > :58:00.match at Old Trafford. I think you've got to remember

:58:01. > :58:03.where criticism is coming from. It is important the BBC listens

:58:04. > :58:06.to criticism and acts on it, but it's also really important that

:58:07. > :58:11.we're robust in defending the BBC's editorial decisions

:58:12. > :58:14.and its journalism when we get Sometimes there will be genuine

:03:33. > :03:36.European Union. The Article 50 letter delivered on Wednesday. Then

:03:37. > :03:40.yesterday, Don add tusk, the President of the European Union

:03:41. > :03:47.council gave his preliminary response on behalf of the European

:03:48. > :04:00.Union as to how the EU would proceed with their negotiations -- Donald

:04:01. > :04:02.Tusk. This is not what was expected, the Spanish authorities intimated

:04:03. > :04:07.this wouldn't be something they would bring into the talks, so there

:04:08. > :04:10.might be some surprise in the corridors of power here that the

:04:11. > :04:15.Spanish have brought this in quite so soon. Donald Tusk yesterday, the

:04:16. > :04:18.President of the EU council, said the talks could get tough and he

:04:19. > :04:24.said they might be confrontational at times. I don't think people would

:04:25. > :04:27.have thought it would have got quite so confrontational quite so quickly.

:04:28. > :04:31.But these are just draft negotiations at the moment. The

:04:32. > :04:36.ministers, the heads and state of Government of the other 27 EU

:04:37. > :04:39.members will meet on 29th April to thrash out finally what their full

:04:40. > :04:47.details will be in terms of the negotiating strategy. We'll have to

:04:48. > :04:48.wait and see then whether the EU thinks it's OK for Spain to press

:04:49. > :04:51.this point. Two million people are set

:04:52. > :04:53.for a pay rise today, as the national living wage goes up

:04:54. > :04:57.to ?7.50 an hour. The change has been broadly

:04:58. > :05:00.welcomed by unions. But employers have expressed

:05:01. > :05:02.concern about the strain Here's our business

:05:03. > :05:11.correspondent Joe Lynam. 23-year-old Lucy is already paid

:05:12. > :05:15.more by the national living wage by his employer. He certainly notices

:05:16. > :05:23.the difference from his previous company. I was struggling for money,

:05:24. > :05:26.it was a big concern for me. It was very much go to work come back,

:05:38. > :05:41.more. From today, workers over 25 must be paid at least ?7. 50 an

:05:42. > :05:47.hour. If you work a full week you will get at least ?281. 25. But

:05:48. > :05:50.employers are worried. Many members were already paying staff more than

:05:51. > :05:55.the level of the national living wage. For those that weren't, it's

:05:56. > :05:58.adding significant costs to their businesses, around about ?900 a year

:05:59. > :06:02.for staff on average and a further ?20 a year with the knock-on

:06:03. > :06:06.consequences for national insurance payments as well. Much of that cost

:06:07. > :06:10.will be absorbed by the businesses themselves rather than passing it on

:06:11. > :06:13.in the form of hire prices. And that is not the only change.

:06:14. > :06:17.Controversial business rates come into force today. Whilst most

:06:18. > :06:22.companies will be paying less, some, especially in the south-east, face

:06:23. > :06:26.much higher bills. And a new system for calculating car taxes starts.

:06:27. > :06:28.Hybrid car owners will be paying more than they did. Joe Lynam, BBC

:06:51. > :06:55.for fertility treatment in Scotland will be eligible for three full

:06:56. > :06:58.cycles of IVF treatment. From today, the Scottish government

:06:59. > :07:02.is increasing the number of cycles funded by the health service

:07:03. > :07:04.for women under 40 It's expected to cost

:07:05. > :07:08.about ?1 million a year. It is thought that around one

:07:09. > :07:14.in seven couples experience In Scotland, up until now,

:07:15. > :07:22.women under 40 have been offered two Older women between 40 and 42

:07:42. > :07:47.cycles are recommended. But local commissioning groups

:07:48. > :07:52.decide, and in half the areas in England, only one

:07:53. > :07:54.cycle is offered. In Wales women under 40

:07:55. > :07:58.are entitled to two cycles. The IVF programme in Scotland

:09:29. > :09:34.of the condition in the hope that the rates of early detection

:09:35. > :09:39.and treatment will increase. She joins us now alongside Deborah

:09:40. > :09:47.Alsina from Bowel Cancer UK. Good morning. Deborah, thanks so

:09:48. > :09:54.much for coming in. How did you first realise that something was

:09:55. > :09:58.wrong? Just before Christmas, I went to have a colonoscopy and I'd been

:09:59. > :10:02.having symptoms for nearly a year, to be honest with you. I started

:10:03. > :10:08.bleeding about six months before. I'd been to my GP a few times and,

:10:09. > :10:12.as is the kind of standard practice many the UK, was sent off for some

:10:13. > :10:16.blood tests and they came back normal, including a screening test

:10:17. > :10:21.to see whether or not there was blood in my poo. Essentially, right

:10:22. > :10:25.up until a month before my diagnosis, all my tests were coming

:10:26. > :10:30.back normal and then it got to the point where I was referred to have a

:10:31. > :10:33.colonoscopy where they put a camera to see inside. It was that point

:10:34. > :10:38.just before Christmas that everybody in the room fell silent and found a

:10:39. > :10:43.six-centimetre due more inside my rectum. My consultant was great and

:10:44. > :10:49.knew straightaway that unfortunately it was cancerous. Things snowballed

:10:50. > :10:51.after that. You don't mind talking about these things, which is why you

:10:52. > :10:56.are asking. This week has been a very difficult week for you? Yes, if

:10:57. > :10:59.I'm being honest, when first diagnosed, they thought it was early

:11:00. > :11:07.stage because of the way it was presenting, despite the fact that it

:11:08. > :11:11.was a large tumour. But in people my age it's detected quite late. As I

:11:12. > :11:16.went through the process, I was hoping it would be stage one. When I

:11:17. > :11:22.was operated on, I was given the devastating news that it had gone to

:11:23. > :11:25.my lymph nodes which meant I was officially class three, which meant

:11:26. > :11:29.I was starting to undergo a six-month regime of chemo.

:11:30. > :11:32.Unfortunately I've had some really sad news that they think it's spread

:11:33. > :11:37.to my lungs which officially classifies me as stage four which

:11:38. > :11:40.unfortunately it doesn't mean I can't be cured, I'm still very

:11:41. > :11:44.hopeful for that but it means my journey's taken a very different

:11:45. > :11:48.turn and I'm sure there are statistics that Deborah will talk to

:11:49. > :11:54.you about and that will tell you the reality of the uphill struggle that

:11:55. > :11:59.I'm about to face. Deborah, the story is terrible to

:12:00. > :12:02.hear first hand isn't it. But we are hearing it more and more often in

:12:03. > :12:12.younger people? That is right. We are. Sadly, in this at least,

:12:13. > :12:16.Deborah is not unique. 2,500 of the 41,000 people diagnosed with bowel

:12:17. > :12:21.cancer every year in the UK are under 50 and 60% of under 50s are

:12:22. > :12:26.diagnosed at the later stages of the disease, stages three and four. 34%

:12:27. > :12:31.as an emergency admission when outcomes are often poorer. This is

:12:32. > :12:35.really significant because most people diagnosed in the early stage

:12:36. > :12:39.of the disease will survive bowel cancer. But it gets tougher and

:12:40. > :12:43.tougher as the disease develops and spreads. Now, the statistics are

:12:44. > :12:48.very shocking but of course they relate to all ages, including older

:12:49. > :12:55.patients, so younger patients like Deborah have a much better chance of

:12:56. > :12:59.surviving this because she's, apart from cancer, healthy, she has a

:13:00. > :13:04.really good chance of being able to cope with a very aggressive

:13:05. > :13:08.treatment that she now faces. But the reality she shouldn't have to be

:13:09. > :13:12.facing them, we need to enable everyone to have that chance of an

:13:13. > :13:15.early diagnosis. Deborah, you are very much on a mission now aren't

:13:16. > :13:19.you to tell people what they should be doing and what to look for?

:13:20. > :13:24.Absolutely. I've got two young children and I hope that by the time

:13:25. > :13:28.they get to my age, they won't have to undergo what I'm doing. I hope

:13:29. > :13:31.that actually nobody will have to undergo what I'm doing at the moment

:13:32. > :13:36.and that prognosis that actually I may not see my children grow up and

:13:37. > :13:42.I hope that actually by raising awareness of the fact that I was 35,

:13:43. > :13:47.or I am 35, I run marathons, I work out five times a week, I'm

:13:48. > :13:51.vegetarian, I've been vegetarian for 25 years, so when somebody says, you

:13:52. > :13:57.know, are you the typical person that might tick all the boxes for

:13:58. > :14:00.bowel cancer, 35-year-old vegetarian - no, unfortunately not. I think

:14:01. > :14:04.it's debunking that myth that actually A you are never too young

:14:05. > :14:08.and I know that's a big driving factor of bowel cancer UK in terms

:14:09. > :14:13.of, you are never too young to have bowel cancer and it's raising

:14:14. > :14:17.awareness that actually you don't have to look 69 and kind of be a

:14:18. > :14:22.bloke as well because people associate it very much with older

:14:23. > :14:35.men. What slowed down or delayed your diagnosis? Looking back, why

:14:36. > :14:42.did it take so long? So I think that unfortunately, even me, a deputy

:14:43. > :14:46.head in a school and really I'm on top of my own medical symptoms, even

:14:47. > :14:50.I didn't think it could happen to me. That's the sad reality that

:14:51. > :14:54.myself and my friends are only becoming aware of it through knowing

:14:55. > :15:00.that I've got bowel cancer and I think it's raising that awareness of

:15:01. > :15:04.whoever you are, you can have it. I think that in itself has delayed

:15:05. > :15:07.diagnosis because unfortunately I think you therefore, if you have

:15:08. > :15:14.bleeding, for example, which was one of my main symptoms, you therefore,

:15:15. > :15:18.at my age, begin to say, well, it's just haemorrhoids or whatever else

:15:19. > :15:22.it might be and statistically it's likely to be something that's quite

:15:23. > :15:25.benign and it's very likely to be not bowel cancer. I think it's just

:15:26. > :15:31.raising that awareness that actually it can happen. I'm thinking Deborah

:15:32. > :15:35.for you as a campaign group someone like Deborah, in the worst of

:15:36. > :15:38.situations, that's a message, you know, the way she's telling the

:15:39. > :15:43.story, the kind of person she is, it's a message that will resonate

:15:44. > :15:49.with people? I think so, which is why we are so incredibly grateful to

:15:50. > :15:53.Deborah and to many, many other patients and families who are

:15:54. > :15:57.supporting our Never Too Young campaign because we have stop this.

:15:58. > :16:01.This is a disease that is preventible, treatable and curable.

:16:02. > :16:06.Early diagnosis is key. We need to find a way of ensuring that younger

:16:07. > :16:10.patients such as Deborah are able to have the very best chances of

:16:11. > :16:13.long-term survival so she can enjoy the beautiful children that she has

:16:14. > :16:18.and the life that she should be having. And she will. Den rather,

:16:19. > :16:25.you are starting a fairly gruelling regime? Yes, I'm hoping to have

:16:26. > :16:29.another operation in a couple of weeks on my lungses, I've had part

:16:30. > :16:34.of my bowel removed already and I thought that was going to be it and

:16:35. > :16:37.now unfortunately I have to have another operation in a couple of

:16:38. > :16:41.weeks which is a good sign and then I will start a new course of

:16:42. > :16:49.chemotherapy which will be a second line course in the hope that I'm

:16:50. > :16:51.still going for a cure. I have a fantastic oncololgist and team who

:16:52. > :16:55.says they'll do everything humanly possible to keep me alive which is

:16:56. > :17:01.great for any cancer patient, you want to have that trust in the team

:17:02. > :17:04.that support you. I'll continue to remain positive.

:17:05. > :17:08.Thank you so much for coming in. I hope you don't mind me saying, a few

:17:09. > :17:11.deep breaths before we started weren't there, but thank you so much

:17:12. > :17:15.for sharing that, Deborah, thank you. Thank you both.

:17:16. > :17:31.Now to Tomas for the weekend weather.

:17:32. > :17:34.It's mixed this weekend. Heavy showers on the way. Sunshine now but

:17:35. > :17:38.you won't necessarily keep it through the day. Already this

:17:39. > :17:42.morning Wales and north-west parts of England have had some rain

:17:43. > :17:47.anyway. What will be happening oaf the next few hours then? Western

:17:48. > :17:52.parts of the UK will start to see the showers really grow and inland

:17:53. > :17:57.areas are in for a few downpours. They'll be very hit and miss. Some

:17:58. > :18:01.of us will miss them all together. Where you catch them could be some

:18:02. > :18:08.hail, thunder as well. You can see on the forecast map here, blobs of

:18:09. > :18:12.blue. Some showers will be heavy and some will be lighter. Some will pass

:18:13. > :18:17.overhead without any rainfall at all. Then the sun will be back. A

:18:18. > :18:21.changeable day on the way today. Later in the afternoon, heavier

:18:22. > :18:27.showers may break out in the eastern areas and here too perhaps hail and

:18:28. > :18:30.thunder. This evening, once the sunsets, the showers die away

:18:31. > :18:33.because the sun gives the energy that drives the showers. We are in

:18:34. > :18:38.for a clear night but it might take a while for all of the showers to

:18:39. > :18:43.clear. Chilly tonight but not desperately cold. Cold enough for

:18:44. > :18:49.grass frost in northern parts. Then Sunday promises to be a nice sunny

:18:50. > :18:54.day. We have this pleasant air of high pressure building in. Sunshine

:18:55. > :18:59.almost for everybody. I don't think it will be absolutely clear

:19:00. > :19:03.everywhere, maybe just a few fluffy clouds but on balance, a beautiful

:19:04. > :19:06.sunny Sunday on the way with respectable temperatures typically

:19:07. > :19:11.in the low teens maybe even 17 in London. A tale of two halves this

:19:12. > :19:15.weekend. Sunshine and you will need your brolly too. The better day of

:19:16. > :19:28.the two is going to be tomorrow. Back to you.

:19:29. > :19:38.Now it's time for us to look at the newspapers. Justin Urquhhart Stewart

:19:39. > :19:44.is here with us. Is all of this news real news, or is some of it fake

:19:45. > :19:47.news? Is some of it April Fool news? I tried to pick out the April Fools,

:19:48. > :19:54.it's difficult, I hope some of these are true. Where are you starting?

:19:55. > :19:59.With the Times. Women bosses are best! Still worry about it. What

:20:00. > :20:04.he's saying is that as a result of these reviews, he's been saying they

:20:05. > :20:10.are better at the employment skills than men and making employ, feel

:20:11. > :20:14.valued. Also they outperform men in setting goals, getting things done

:20:15. > :20:21.and following things through step by step. But, but, actually it's under

:20:22. > :20:25.pressure that then they find sometimes the women find it

:20:26. > :20:31.difficult. Not sure how you put that against Margaret Thatcher and

:20:32. > :20:35.Bodasea. There is Also the other but, why is the world then still run

:20:36. > :20:40.largely by men which is a very good question. Particularly in the City?

:20:41. > :20:44.There are very few there, yes, and the answer is because people take

:20:45. > :20:50.breaks for families, then come back and they are not at the same level.

:20:51. > :20:54.That is beginning to change. There are some bright women there who're

:20:55. > :20:58.wasted because they then go off and feel, I can't come back because I'm

:20:59. > :21:03.going to go in at a lower level. It's difficult for them to come back

:21:04. > :21:11.without the support in terms of childcare. Do you think, I mean you

:21:12. > :21:17.have been in the City for a while, do you think the culture's changing

:21:18. > :21:23.or are people still paying lip service? It's changed but very, very

:21:24. > :21:29.slowly. Go back to pre-1986 when we had Big Bang and the City was

:21:30. > :21:33.sexist, racist, divided by religion and classist as well, in certain

:21:34. > :21:38.areas. It's changed radically from that but still has a long way to go.

:21:39. > :21:43.Where next? Now to, oh dear, I'm afraid yes it's maybe April Fool,

:21:44. > :21:47.this is about the costs of costs going up. Everything is getting more

:21:48. > :21:50.expensive. Everything. Everything. This is the Daily Mail going through

:21:51. > :21:58.your household council tax, water bills and the energy bills going up,

:21:59. > :22:03.health care costs, 1st class stamps. When is it looking back to, where is

:22:04. > :22:06.the comparison? This is on a year. One year on, OK. So one year on. 65p

:22:07. > :22:27.for a stamp. ?88 a year for households, that

:22:28. > :22:33.doesn't seem a lot, but inflation is rising. We have had almost 0

:22:34. > :22:37.inflation. The Bank of England is looking at its target, youing up to

:22:38. > :22:42.3 or maybe even beyond 3%. What does that mean for us? It means if you

:22:43. > :22:47.are actually feeling worse off because of your pay levels may not

:22:48. > :22:52.be going up at the same level. Some things draw the eye more than

:22:53. > :22:57.others, petrol prices is the classic which people look at petrol prices

:22:58. > :23:01.and then think everything has risen. Some things are more subtle? The

:23:02. > :23:05.household things you tend to see, but the airport duty you don't

:23:06. > :23:09.notice until suddenly you are booking a holiday thinking, this is

:23:10. > :23:13.expensive. Buy a ticket these days and it's a third of the cost in just

:23:14. > :23:22.tax which is expensive. Your next story? Also a depressing one. Debt

:23:23. > :23:27.looms as savings hit record low. We have never been very good at saving

:23:28. > :23:32.in this country but we need to teach people finance right at school and

:23:33. > :23:36.learning them the habit of saving, whether it's into a bank or

:23:37. > :23:41.investments or a piggy bank. People are dipping into their savings to

:23:42. > :23:44.pay for their day-to-day living and unfortunately credit cards are all

:23:45. > :23:49.too easy, people have access to credit and if you don't know how to

:23:50. > :23:53.use a credit card properly, you will run up an expensive debt and then it

:23:54. > :23:59.takes a long time to try to pay it back. Take us away from the world of

:24:00. > :24:04.money? ! Absolutely. Did you see the Daily Mail story. This is an

:24:05. > :24:08.incredible story. Yes, there's been a huge build-up for at least an

:24:09. > :24:11.hour. You might have to help me here, Charlie, look at this world

:24:12. > :24:21.exclusive. Harry's secret wedding. In Las Vegas? Yes, they didn't want

:24:22. > :24:25.a fuss. There is the happy couple and we'd never really even noticed

:24:26. > :24:32.it and America didn't either, so full colour spread double page

:24:33. > :24:37.spread on Harry Windsor's wedding. Just so that we don't add to any

:24:38. > :24:42.confusion, what are we looking at? It's April 1st and we are looking at

:24:43. > :24:47.people either very good photo shops or excellent doubles here doing a

:24:48. > :24:52.very good impersonation. I can just say, looking at the Harry double,

:24:53. > :24:57.he's very, very good. Do you think they've got their Meghan yet? There

:24:58. > :25:00.is a clever photo where she's holding her arm across her face. We

:25:01. > :25:08.haven't found it have we. No, someone has a career opportunity

:25:09. > :25:13.there. Time for the polar bear? Yes. Could this be true? Stranded polar

:25:14. > :25:21.bear floats on to Scottish island. Then you look and there is a

:25:22. > :25:27.wonderful map showing 400 miles it drifted down. Not sure how many ice

:25:28. > :25:31.packs reached here. It's a lovely story. Can't blame him, it's a

:25:32. > :25:35.lovely place to get to. If it's true! You will be a back in

:25:36. > :25:38.an hour, see you then. Thank you very much. So, as we have been

:25:39. > :25:43.hearing, if you are fed up with the rat race and are seeking a better

:25:44. > :25:50.quality of life, Orkney, we are told is the best place to be. It's won in

:25:51. > :25:54.this poll. Not just for polar bears. They have topped a Bank of Scotland

:25:55. > :25:57.survey, the first time of rural locations which praise the islands

:25:58. > :26:00.for their stunning scenery, low crime rates and most importantly,

:26:01. > :26:09.great range of pubs. Yes! We can talk to Ken Amer in

:26:10. > :26:17.Orkney. Very good morning to you in Kirk wall. Disappointed we haven't

:26:18. > :26:20.got a shot of the beautiful surroundings behind you but you have

:26:21. > :26:27.come top of the poll. What is so special? Well, obviously the scenery

:26:28. > :26:35.is lovely but you can't live off that really, it's the people of

:26:36. > :26:38.Orkney that are so friendly. You know whatever's happening, if

:26:39. > :26:41.somebody falls in the street, you know their dad, granny and kids

:26:42. > :26:45.before you pick them up so it's a fantastic place.

:26:46. > :26:49.Ken, that's really important isn't it because, as you are talking we

:26:50. > :26:53.are looking at some pictures there. The point you are making really is

:26:54. > :26:56.scenery is one thing but the way people are and what they are like is

:26:57. > :27:03.possibly more important than that? Yes. Very much so. That is what

:27:04. > :27:08.makes Orkney so special. I think the old-fashioned valued are being lost

:27:09. > :27:12.on the mainland and here in Orkney and indeed the Western Isles and

:27:13. > :27:16.Shetland, because of course we are surrounded by sea we know each

:27:17. > :27:22.other, we leave our houses open and pop in and have a cup of tea and

:27:23. > :27:27.visit anybody we want. You are a photographer, Ken, and we have one

:27:28. > :27:31.or two of the images you have taken. Can you explain one thing. As I

:27:32. > :27:35.understand it, Orkney came in, I think it's 47th last time around and

:27:36. > :27:41.it's now shot up to number one on this list, can you account for that

:27:42. > :27:44.in anyway? Probably we are getting more sunshine I think. No we are not

:27:45. > :27:51.actually! The weather is a defining factor here, but I still really

:27:52. > :27:55.passionately believe that it's the old-fashioned values. We have had a

:27:56. > :28:00.lot of publicity recently on the BBC especially and I think people are

:28:01. > :28:04.becoming more aware that just what it's like to live in Scotland

:28:05. > :28:16.communities as opposed to big cities where you are in Manchester.

:28:17. > :28:21.Presumably there are people up there, people move away from remote

:28:22. > :28:24.areas, Scotland has a problem with people moving away mostly for work,

:28:25. > :28:30.which is an issue isn't it? Yes, it is. It doesn't matter what you do in

:28:31. > :28:34.Orkney, work-wise, whether you are a self-employed person like myself or

:28:35. > :28:40.whether you are an em-Moyesee, it's a very low ceiling. There is only

:28:41. > :28:44.20,000 souls here in Orkney and you find that it doesn't matter what

:28:45. > :28:49.trade you are in, it's replicated about ten times. The downside is

:28:50. > :28:54.that it's very difficult to make a living if you are self-employed

:28:55. > :29:02.because there's so many people doing the same job. To etch a living is

:29:03. > :29:08.quite a skill in small communities. Ken, lovely to talk to you today. Go

:29:09. > :29:11.and have a cup of tea with your neighbours which sounds absolutely

:29:12. > :29:15.delightful. Thank you for talking to us today. Thank you very much.

:29:16. > :29:18.Orkney, this you go. Number one. The best place to live. Beautiful. Stay

:29:19. > :29:37.with us, headlines coming up. Hello this is Breakfast. Coming up,

:29:38. > :29:44.the weather and a look ahead to the sport across the weekend. First, at

:29:45. > :29:48.8. 8. 29, the main news: Tensions are rising over Gibraltar's position

:29:49. > :29:53.with Brexit after the EU gave Spain a potential veto on any particular

:29:54. > :29:58.deal for the territory. Spain have been accused of trying to manipulate

:29:59. > :30:04.it. The Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson says the Government would be

:30:05. > :30:08.implacable and rock-like in its support for Gibraltar. Two million

:30:09. > :30:12.people are set for a pay rise as the national living wage rises to ?7. 50

:30:13. > :30:18.an hour. The change has been broadly welcomed by unions. There have been

:30:19. > :30:21.calls from campaigners to make the figure higher as there are concerns

:30:22. > :30:32.about the strain. Around 4,000 households in England

:30:33. > :30:35.earning more than ?100,000 a year have received taxpayers'

:30:36. > :30:37.money to help them buy a home. Official figures also

:30:38. > :30:39.reveal that the Help to Buy Equity Loan scheme has assisted

:30:40. > :30:42.more than 20,000 households Labour said it showed the initiative

:30:43. > :30:45.was "badly targeted" but the government insisted it

:30:46. > :30:48.continued to make home ownership Patients referred to the NHS

:30:49. > :30:52.for fertility treatment in Scotland will be eligible for three full

:30:53. > :30:54.cycles of IVF treatment. is increasing the number of cycles

:30:55. > :30:58.funded by the health service for women under

:30:59. > :31:00.40 from two to three. The change is expected to cost

:31:01. > :31:12.about ?1 million a year. Protesters in Paraguay have stormed

:31:13. > :31:14.the Congress and set fire to the building as anger grows over moves

:31:15. > :31:18.to allow President Cartes to stand for a second term.

:31:19. > :31:21.The demonstrations were triggered by a Senate vote behind closed doors

:31:22. > :31:23.to change the constitution, ending the one term limit.

:31:24. > :31:40.Campaigners say Paraguay's democracy is under threat.

:31:41. > :31:43.President Donald Trump left the Oval Office on Friday without signing the

:31:44. > :31:46.executive orders that he was there to announce. He continued walking as

:31:47. > :31:49.a reporter shouted questions about whether Mr Trump was trying to get

:31:50. > :31:51.immunity for his former adviser Michael Flynn, who was forced to

:31:52. > :31:53.resign over alleged links to Russia. Amid journalists' confusion,

:31:54. > :31:54.Vice-President Mike Pence picked up the orders from the table, and they

:31:55. > :31:56.were signed in another room. Bob Dylan will finally

:31:57. > :31:58.accept his Nobel Prize The American singer won the award

:31:59. > :32:02.in October but failed to travel to pick it up,

:32:03. > :32:04.or deliver the lecture that is required to receive

:32:05. > :32:07.the prize fund of around ?700,000. If he doesn't fulfil the conditions

:32:08. > :32:09.by June, he will have to

:32:10. > :32:20.forfeit his winnings. It's April fools

:32:21. > :32:25.day and it's 60 years since television viewers first

:32:26. > :32:37.saw this. The past winter, one of the mildest

:32:38. > :32:39.in living memory, has had its effect in other ways as well, it has

:32:40. > :32:44.resulted in an especially heavy spaghetti harvest.

:32:45. > :32:46.This is Panorama's famous Spaghetti tree report.

:32:47. > :32:48.The three minute broadcast was watched by eight million people.

:32:49. > :32:50.Unfortunately some viewers failed to see the funny side,

:32:51. > :32:54.where they could purchase their very own tree.

:32:55. > :33:01.Thing is, I still wish it were true! LAUGHTER

:33:02. > :33:08.The papers have done a view, Formula 1 have done one... I don't know

:33:09. > :33:17.whether I should say that. Left-handed tracks! Tracks you can

:33:18. > :33:23.only drive around one way, they will change direction.

:33:24. > :33:32.Is part of the problem that it is so easy to check things now. So you

:33:33. > :33:35.just checked it is not true, fine. Part of the problem is that lots of

:33:36. > :33:38.the real news is so strange that people cannot tell! Have you got

:33:39. > :33:46.some real things to tell us? It raises a smile, anyway, and

:33:47. > :33:50.something else that raises a smile, the progress of your anaconda. --

:33:51. > :33:57.the progress of Johanna Konta. Konta the first British

:33:58. > :33:59.woman to reach the final. She's had a great year already

:34:00. > :34:02.winning her second title at the Sydney International before

:34:03. > :34:04.reaching the quarter finals She recognises that winning a third

:34:05. > :34:08.title later is going to be difficult Roger Federer in the final again as

:34:09. > :34:30.well. Most important thing is to look to

:34:31. > :34:39.enjoy the occasion a little bit more. It is a great tournament to be

:34:40. > :34:46.in, a part of to the very end. Not easy to get opportunities like this,

:34:47. > :34:49.I play against enquiry be tough opponents, someone who has been

:34:50. > :34:52.around the top of the game for so long. Overall, good enjoyment for

:34:53. > :34:58.the challenges, and it will come. Good luck to her.

:34:59. > :35:00.It's perhaps no great surprise after his ongoing injury problems.

:35:01. > :35:03.Tiger Woods has pulled out of Golf's first major of the year,

:35:04. > :35:08.He said he's just not "tournament ready" due to his troublesome back,

:35:09. > :35:10.and that there's no timetable for his return.

:35:11. > :35:13.He was sidelined for 15 months after two surgeries to try and fix it.

:35:14. > :35:15.The 14-time major winner won his first major

:35:16. > :35:22.Better news for Britain's Charley Hull.

:35:23. > :35:24.She's three shots off the lead at the halfway stage

:35:25. > :35:27.of the first women's major of the year in California.

:35:28. > :35:30.She finished off her first round with this birdie at the 18th.

:35:31. > :35:32.No hanging around though, she immediately started her second

:35:33. > :35:33.round following delays in the schedule

:35:34. > :35:38.Norway's Suzann Pettersen leads on 7-under.

:35:39. > :35:42.Second placed Aberdeen prevented Celtic from being crowned

:35:43. > :35:50.Scottish Premiership champions last night after beating Dundee 7-0.

:35:51. > :35:53.Had they lost, then the title would have been Celtic's,

:35:54. > :35:55.It was partly down to this guy Andrew Considine who

:35:56. > :35:59.Not often you see a defender score a hat trick.

:36:00. > :36:01.A win for Celtic against Hearts on Sunday will clinch the title.

:36:02. > :36:04.What a game to get this weekend's Premier league

:36:05. > :36:06.It's the Merseyside derby this lunchtime.

:36:07. > :36:07.Liverpool welcoming Everton to Anfield.

:36:08. > :36:10.Let's hear from both managers, firstly Jurgen Klopp,

:36:11. > :36:12.who's been impressed with the way Everton have

:36:13. > :36:25.They have had a really good run, they have not lost a lot of games in

:36:26. > :36:31.the last few weeks and months. The result, obviously confident. What we

:36:32. > :36:35.are Liverpool, we play at Anfield, and no one should underestimate the

:36:36. > :36:39.power of Anfield. Whenever we play at Anfield we all have to create a

:36:40. > :36:48.special atmosphere. It is a new season, it is a new game, a new

:36:49. > :36:53.manager. At Everton. And I don't know why... I heard a little bit

:36:54. > :36:58.about the last two seasons of Everton, that maybe they were too

:36:59. > :37:02.afraid to play against Liverpool. Why do you need to be afraid to play

:37:03. > :37:04.against Liverpool? I don't understand that.

:37:05. > :37:07.League leaders Chelsea are 10 points clear at the top,

:37:08. > :37:09.but can extend that when they play Crystal Palace.

:37:10. > :37:15.And there's another Derby at teatime,

:37:16. > :37:22.or the "El Classi-coast" as it's being dubbed.

:37:23. > :37:27.Southampton taking on Bournemouth are neck and neck in

:37:28. > :37:41.We just heard from manager Ronald Koeman there who witnessed his

:37:42. > :37:44.defender Seamus Coleman suffer a really nasty injury whilst playing

:37:45. > :37:46.for his country the Republic of Ireland against Wales on

:37:47. > :37:48.International duty. And now he's at the centre of a row after accusing

:37:49. > :37:51.the national coach Martin O'Neill of not protecting his player whilst he

:37:52. > :37:52.was away from his club side on International duty. But O'Neill's

:37:53. > :37:55.responded calling the Everton manager a "master tactician of the

:37:56. > :37:57.blame game". You wonder whether or not that is an argument that is

:37:58. > :38:02.going to run and run. Dan Walker is here, football focus coming up

:38:03. > :38:10.later. That is not the only disagreement, Saido Berahino, moving

:38:11. > :38:12.Stoke City from West Brom, bit of a falling out. Interesting character,

:38:13. > :38:15.we have a fascinatingly honest interview with him, he has hardly

:38:16. > :38:21.played for West Brom at all, he failed a drugs test last season, he

:38:22. > :38:24.was banned for a number of games as well, moved to Stoke, there to say

:38:25. > :38:28.he has fallen out of love with West Brom, he arrived as a young man,

:38:29. > :38:33.from Molenbeek, he came to Birmingham with his mother, came to

:38:34. > :38:38.West Brom and moved up through the youth ranks, he talks in his

:38:39. > :38:42.interview about how he fell out of love with a club that has done so

:38:43. > :38:45.much for him. Let's have a look. I was depressed, every time I went to

:38:46. > :38:50.the training ground, did not want to be there, that was the hardest

:38:51. > :38:57.thing. From going from loving something to hating the place that

:38:58. > :39:00.made you, it is hard to take. Even if I was just playing... There is

:39:01. > :39:05.ways of doing things... There is times I was training with the youth

:39:06. > :39:08.team... Not the sort of interview that is going to please West Brom

:39:09. > :39:12.fans, he holds up his hands and says there were things that he did which

:39:13. > :39:15.were wrong, attitude was wrong, but he also says he did not feel that

:39:16. > :39:20.the club did not deal with him properly. When you mention Stoke

:39:21. > :39:23.City, his new club, a smile comes upon his face. Fascinating

:39:24. > :39:30.interview. The Merseyside derby, Mark Lawrenson in the red corner,

:39:31. > :39:36.Kevin in the blue corner. Talking about Celtic as well, could have

:39:37. > :39:39.been the weekend they won the title. Coventry taking 42,000 fans to

:39:40. > :39:45.Wembley for the EFL Trophy, club in real turmoil but they had to have a

:39:46. > :39:51.really good Wembley weekend. Claude Puel, Southampton boss, he is on,

:39:52. > :39:56.talking about what you are talking about, El Classicoast, and we have

:39:57. > :40:04.Premier League predictions as well coming from the comedian, Omid

:40:05. > :40:09.Djalili. Couldn't read my notes there. Mango fingers!

:40:10. > :40:25.Congratulations on the net where there are. Full knitwear! --

:40:26. > :40:26.congratulations on the knitwear. I got distracted by mango fingers, we

:40:27. > :40:32.are back to one hour, and we Curling is one of Team GB's most

:40:33. > :40:35.successful Winter Olypmic sports. But that's all thanks to Scotland.

:40:36. > :40:38.In the future, though, they could be getting help from south of the

:40:39. > :40:39.border. Mike's been to a farm in Kent where they've built England's

:40:40. > :40:53.first dedicated curling rink. VOICEOVER: Where once they milked

:40:54. > :40:58.cows, they are forming a new breed, intend, the Garden of England, they

:40:59. > :40:59.are milking something very rare outside of Scotland, curling talent

:41:00. > :41:17.for the future. It is because there was nothing in

:41:18. > :41:19.England, I came down from Scotland, where curling was something that all

:41:20. > :41:23.the family did. It was really a community thing. I would say, the

:41:24. > :41:28.cows, they made a mess, you did not get any money, brought in the

:41:29. > :41:32.curlers, brought in the curlers, and they make a mess and they still did

:41:33. > :41:35.not make any money! But he has stirred a passion for the sport in

:41:36. > :41:39.southern England, helping to nurture future stars that could one day help

:41:40. > :41:44.the Scots to strengthen the British team. At the moment this is the only

:41:45. > :41:49.dedicated purpose-built curling rink outside of Scotland but another will

:41:50. > :41:53.open in Lancashire, in Preston, later this year. Such a simple game,

:41:54. > :42:01.push a rock up the ice, at any level you can enjoy it. It is straight,

:42:02. > :42:07.could be short... A lot of sweeping to do there. Straighter than I

:42:08. > :42:09.thought it was going to be. Next year 's Winter Olympics will be the

:42:10. > :42:12.first to feature a mixed doubles competition, not sure I will be

:42:13. > :42:19.getting the nod from Annabel or any of the young curlers. I like

:42:20. > :42:21.sliding, you have to have a very specific technique to get it right,

:42:22. > :42:24.takes time to perfect. It comes down to tactics, comes down to knowing

:42:25. > :42:31.what the opposition is thinking and where you can put it to win the

:42:32. > :42:32.game. They do say this game is like chess, I am going to give him a

:42:33. > :42:46.couple of tactical signals... The great thing about this board,

:42:47. > :42:49.you don't need to be on ice skates, one of the few I sport where you

:42:50. > :42:52.don't need any skating ability to take part, my job is to sweep as

:42:53. > :42:57.soon as they say sweet, here we go... To try to get it the extra few

:42:58. > :43:03.feet and centimetres. Get it into the circle... Come on, come on. That

:43:04. > :43:07.is our own stone! You don't need to be a typical athlete to get along

:43:08. > :43:10.with curling, there is lots of different types of curlers, and it

:43:11. > :43:15.is a great sport because there is individual skill involved, but you

:43:16. > :43:16.need to play as a team. In this board, it is never quite over until

:43:17. > :43:27.the last stone. Thieves are stealing ?24 from bank

:43:28. > :43:30.customers every second and the banks themselves admit that they stop

:43:31. > :43:33.unless fraud than they did a year ago, Financial Fraud Action UK also

:43:34. > :43:35.says criminals are getting better at fooling us into helping them take

:43:36. > :43:38.our money. Paul Lewis from Radio 4's Money Box programme is in our London

:43:39. > :43:49.studio. According to the latest industry report. How much is being

:43:50. > :43:56.stolen? Well, a total of ?769 million every year, was stolen, that

:43:57. > :44:01.is ?24 every second. -- in a year. By the time we have finished this

:44:02. > :44:04.item, that will be another ?5,000 disappear from accounts, absolutely

:44:05. > :44:10.extraordinary, and worse then, as you mentioned, is that prevention is

:44:11. > :44:16.falling. So, whereas in the past they prevented about 70p in every

:44:17. > :44:27.pound being stolen, now it is down to 64p. They are letting through

:44:28. > :44:39.more than one third. How thieves getting cleverer? The technological

:44:40. > :44:42.tags are 40 by the banks, they know how to stop them coming in and

:44:43. > :44:45.taking money out, what thieves do now is concentrate on the weak

:44:46. > :44:47.point, I am sorry to say, that is asked, customers, you and me, they

:44:48. > :44:50.are very clever, they ring up, they pretend to be from a trusted source,

:44:51. > :44:55.like Microsoft, a supermarket, BT, they say there is a problem with

:44:56. > :44:59.something or another and they want to sort something out otherwise the

:45:00. > :45:02.bank account may be at risk, very persuasive, they persuade you to

:45:03. > :45:06.give them access to your account by giving them access to the computer,

:45:07. > :45:15.they persuade you to give them a pass code from your bank, and then

:45:16. > :45:18.they use that to rob you. I reported earlier in the year, on a lady who

:45:19. > :45:20.had lost ?180,000 because the thieves managed to persuade her that

:45:21. > :45:24.they were just changing the pay, in fact, they were taking money from

:45:25. > :45:29.her. What can we do to protect ourselves better? Be completely

:45:30. > :45:34.suspicious, if anybody contact you to say, might be a problem on your

:45:35. > :45:39.bank account, don't believe them! Do not believe them. Put down the

:45:40. > :45:44.phone, use another phone, ring your bank on a number that you trust, if

:45:45. > :45:51.you want to check, make sure everything is OK, which it always

:45:52. > :45:53.will be. Strangers will not renew and say there is a problem on your

:45:54. > :45:56.bank account or your broadband or computer, they just won't do it for

:45:57. > :46:04.any legitimate reason. We have to say, no. The sad thing is, the banks

:46:05. > :46:08.don't seem able to stop it, it is down to us. That is a warning. Thank

:46:09. > :46:16.you very much. Don't trust anybody, be suspicious of everything.

:46:17. > :46:21.And you can hear more about this on Money Box on BBC Radio 4 at midday.

:46:22. > :46:26.Main stories: Britain has said it will protect Gibraltar from any

:46:27. > :46:31.sovereignty claims made by Spain during Brexit negotiations. A pay

:46:32. > :46:33.rise for 2 million people, as the national living wage rises to ?7 50,

:46:34. > :46:46.an hour. -- ?7.50, an hour. Weather this weekend is going to be

:46:47. > :46:51.a little bit all over the place, and friendly fair weather clouds may be

:46:52. > :46:52.for a moment this morning, but then, those clouds will go into something

:46:53. > :47:06.a little more ugly. This is rain, the sun is beginning

:47:07. > :47:08.to poke through the clouds in one or two places. Those clouds are also

:47:09. > :47:20.going to be growing through the morning into the afternoon. Plenty

:47:21. > :47:23.of showers on the way, hit and miss, some of us get them, some do not,

:47:24. > :47:24.50/50 chance of catching rain, certainly a chance across

:47:25. > :47:27.south-western England, through Wales, western parts of the UK, this

:47:28. > :47:30.is where they will be at their heaviest and fall earlier in the

:47:31. > :47:35.day. Eastern parts of the country will tend to get the showers later

:47:36. > :47:39.on. If you live in Lincolnshire, the East Midlands, the south-east, those

:47:40. > :47:44.showers will brew later on, and also a chance of hail and thunder. Once

:47:45. > :47:48.the sun sets, the energy is lost from the sun, the showers can

:47:49. > :47:53.sustain themselves, they fall apart, and we are left with clear skies

:47:54. > :47:58.overnight. Try one tonight, pretty chilly, just a touch of frost across

:47:59. > :48:10.northern areas, tomorrow, beautiful sunny note for most of us. Banks to

:48:11. > :48:13.this area of low pressure. That will settle things down for many of us.

:48:14. > :48:17.Fine day on the way, two very different days, from a showery

:48:18. > :48:19.Saturday to a much sunny Sunday. How about the temperatures? Tomorrow

:48:20. > :48:25.will feel warmer than today, tomorrow will have more sun around,

:48:26. > :48:28.temperatures up to 17, a bit closer around the coast, and more

:48:29. > :48:34.typically, 13, four Leeds and Sheffield. Summary this weekend,

:48:35. > :48:55.April showers today. -- for beat United. -- for Leeds.

:48:56. > :48:58.You might remember The Crystal Maze, the quiz show in the 1990s.

:48:59. > :49:00.And if you ever wished you could have a go,

:49:01. > :49:04.The format has been revived as part of an immersive

:49:05. > :49:06.theatrical production, which sees people take part,

:49:07. > :49:08.influence the show, and even become characters themselves.

:49:09. > :49:09.Breakfast's Tim Muffett has been to have a go.

:49:10. > :49:20.participants, not just watching the show but being in it. The Crystal

:49:21. > :49:24.Maze Experience opens today in Manchester, based on the early 90s

:49:25. > :49:27.television programme. A really British TV show, a sense of

:49:28. > :49:36.irreverence, it was funny, tongue in cheek, silly... That is just the way

:49:37. > :49:38.the Wookie grumbles(!) this new Manchester production will see

:49:39. > :49:43.audience members compete for crystals, to buy time in the crystal

:49:44. > :49:48.dome. Will you start the fans please! We have broken the

:49:49. > :49:53.disconnect now between people wanting to be active and passive,

:49:54. > :49:57.wanting to play and follow a journey rather than just be sat in a dark

:49:58. > :50:02.auditorium. This immersive production might be inspired by a

:50:03. > :50:06.television game show, but many theatre producers have sought out

:50:07. > :50:17.new audiences by making them part of the story. Montagues and Capulets, a

:50:18. > :50:23.very different version of Romeo + Juliet, the latest production by

:50:24. > :50:31.these immersive specialists, Colab Theatre. There is dodge ball, a 90s

:50:32. > :50:37.rave, audience choose which subplot to follow. Very immersive, not quite

:50:38. > :50:41.what I was expecting. The fact it involves everybody, that is the

:50:42. > :50:45.thing, you are not sitting severally. The arts Council has seen

:50:46. > :50:50.a big rise in the number of funding applications from experimental

:50:51. > :50:54.theatre group, up 42% since 2014. Many immersive shows like this one

:50:55. > :50:59.based on Alice in Wonderland have proved popular, but some feel that

:51:00. > :51:02.the novelty is wearing them. What has changed in immersive theatre, it

:51:03. > :51:09.has gone from an art form that was new and exciting to being something

:51:10. > :51:12.that people are ending up going for the experience of it. If you haven't

:51:13. > :51:21.got something you want to say and achieve, by bringing the audience

:51:22. > :51:24.into the show, you may as well not do it immersive leak, you may as

:51:25. > :51:26.well not do it at all. Confusing at times, audience participation is a

:51:27. > :51:28.must, the growth of immersive theatre suggest that watching a show

:51:29. > :51:37.is for some no longer enough. We will have a full review of the

:51:38. > :51:42.newspapers coming up in the next hour.

:51:43. > :51:46.When journalist Peter Taylor stepped nervously onto a plane in 1967,

:51:47. > :51:48.bound for the Middle East, he had no idea it would be the start of a

:51:49. > :51:51.career spanning 50 years. At the time "terrorism" was barely in our

:51:52. > :51:53.vocabulary, but as he covered the Troubles in Northern Ireland,

:51:54. > :51:55.Al-Qaeda and the rise of so-called Islamic State, he's seen how

:51:56. > :51:56.extremist ideology has evolved. He joins us now but first, let's take a

:51:57. > :52:12.look at some of his reporting. Good morning. We will have a look

:52:13. > :52:15.back now. Talk us through some of these images afterwards. These young

:52:16. > :52:21.gorillas here are outside of the borders of South Africa. We cannot

:52:22. > :52:23.identify the location and we cannot show the they are for reasons of

:52:24. > :52:26.security. -- guerillas. All we can say is that many of these young

:52:27. > :52:29.people left is a way to five years ago in the aftermath of the rights

:52:30. > :52:44.of June, 1976. -- left Soweto. You say that he will fight the

:52:45. > :52:51.soldiers? I want to fight for my country. If I were to interview some

:52:52. > :52:58.children about the same age as you were when I interviewed you, 40

:52:59. > :53:01.years ago, and if one of those children said to me now, that he

:53:02. > :53:05.wanted to fight and die for Ireland, what would you say? I would tell him

:53:06. > :53:13.to forget it. All the people who died... They thought they were

:53:14. > :53:16.fighting for their country. But it didn't work out that way. To show

:53:17. > :53:24.just how close we are to the Islamic State line, if you look over there,

:53:25. > :53:28.you can see the black flag of the Islamic State, and it is only about

:53:29. > :53:40.200 metres away. 200 metres from the black flag of

:53:41. > :53:43.Islamic State... Yes, but we didn't get any closer to the black flag.

:53:44. > :53:45.But that was one of those cases... I am not a war reporter but

:53:46. > :53:50.occasionally I have to go to war zones, and that was one of those

:53:51. > :53:56.operations, where we came pretty close. You have had the knack over

:53:57. > :54:02.your career of being in the right place at moments crucial to world

:54:03. > :54:07.history. Is that by design? Is it because you are more brave than

:54:08. > :54:14.anybody else? More tenacious? I would not say I am any braver,

:54:15. > :54:16.partly by design, because you can see the way that certain situations

:54:17. > :54:22.are going to evolve, but also, there are moments when you have to take

:54:23. > :54:25.certain risks, like that piece of me in the middle of nowhere, in Angola,

:54:26. > :54:29.with the ANC gorillas, who fled South Africa five years earlier, it

:54:30. > :54:32.took me months to arrange the facility to go to Angola and do the

:54:33. > :54:37.filming. -- ANC guerillas. It had never been done before. The morning

:54:38. > :54:42.of my departure, I got a phone call from the ANC headquarters saying,

:54:43. > :54:46.you cannot come, too dangerous, risky for us, don't do it. You sit

:54:47. > :54:50.there, you have the tickets, and you think, what do I do, do I be a good

:54:51. > :54:57.boy and state, or take the risk? I arrived in Rand and Angola, at the

:54:58. > :55:00.headquarters, to see the big commissar, and he said, didn't you

:55:01. > :55:04.get the message, what are you doing here? And I said, message, what

:55:05. > :55:10.message. -- Rwanda. LAUGHTER Anyway, we managed to do it. Playing

:55:11. > :55:14.dumb can help. Playing innocent, I don't tell lies, occasionally a

:55:15. > :55:18.white lie is necessary to get a result, that was the only time that

:55:19. > :55:21.the young students who fled South Africa five years ago after the

:55:22. > :55:26.massacre in is a waiter had ever been filmed. Part of being a

:55:27. > :55:30.reporter, you deal with what is in front of you at that time and place,

:55:31. > :55:36.but maybe now, you reflect on what you have seen over the years, the

:55:37. > :55:40.notion that terrorism has changed, that terrorists used to target

:55:41. > :55:46.high-profile people, specific people, and how it has changed now,

:55:47. > :55:52.what do you see that as James? It has changed at magically since I

:55:53. > :55:56.first met the IRA, back in Londonderry, 1972, after bloody

:55:57. > :56:02.Sunday, when the IRA as we know it, as we knew it, which is beginning to

:56:03. > :56:06.emerge. Over 50 years, I have watched counterterrorism developed

:56:07. > :56:12.from the IRA, who had a specific aim, and a specific modus operandi,

:56:13. > :56:16.the IRA killed many civilians, let's not underestimate that, but by and

:56:17. > :56:20.large, the IRA tactic was not to deliberately kill civilians,

:56:21. > :56:25.although many civilians were killed by the IRA. Contrast that with

:56:26. > :56:29.Al-Qaeda and so-called Islamic State, there are modus operandi is

:56:30. > :56:37.to target, massacre, as many innocent civilians as possible with

:56:38. > :56:41.no warning. Dealing with the IRA, or ETA or FARC is very different from

:56:42. > :56:47.trying to deal with Islamist organisations like Al-Qaeda and

:56:48. > :56:50.Islamic State. The IRA had an agenda, which was moving towards a

:56:51. > :56:54.united Ireland, the British could negotiate on that, and we did, in

:56:55. > :57:00.the end we reached the Good Friday agreement. Go shading and talking to

:57:01. > :57:03.the so-called Islamic State, what do you talk about...? -- negotiating.

:57:04. > :57:07.Bias is the most ruthless, dangerous, formidable terrorist

:57:08. > :57:11.organisation that we have ever come across. -- IS. We have to deal with

:57:56. > :57:59.-- What we are looking at your extensive work, where is this?

:58:00. > :58:05.The day before we went there, where I was, the person was killed by a

:58:06. > :58:16.sniper, and so... You never take it for granted that it is safe. It is

:58:17. > :58:18.risky, it is never that dangerous because you have a BBC mind, but we

:58:19. > :58:21.all have hostile environment training before we go. You are not

:58:22. > :58:24.prepared for the expected. That moment, in a report we saw, you met

:58:25. > :58:37.a young man, back in the day, 1970... 1974. 12-year-old boy, he

:58:38. > :58:40.was intent upon joining... Wanted to fight and die for Ireland. You meet

:58:41. > :58:45.him again. I tracked him down, a couple of years ago, and that is one

:58:46. > :58:49.of the things I remember, aged 12, wanting to fight and die for

:58:50. > :58:54.Ireland, when I tracked him down, which was not easy, in West Belfast,

:58:55. > :59:02.I was shocked at what I saw, when I knocked on the door. He said, you

:59:03. > :59:09.haven't changed a bit, well I have, but if anybody had change, it was

:59:10. > :59:15.him, 54, he looked 80, 90 years old, going on for 100. He is a victim as

:59:16. > :59:20.well, wee Sean, he became an alcoholic, his life was destroyed,

:59:21. > :59:24.his life was destroyed basically because he joined the IRA and went

:59:25. > :59:39.to jail, I met him in the maze prison when I did documentaries...

:59:40. > :59:42.His life was destroyed. Very moving. His remarks on the answer to my

:59:43. > :59:46.question, if I met you again at that stage, would you still want to join

:59:47. > :59:54.the IRA? He said, no. So sad. Thank you so much for joining us.

:01:41. > :01:46.Gilbraltar's position during Brexit, after the EU gave Spain a potential

:01:47. > :01:48.veto on any future deal Last night, the government said it

:01:49. > :01:53.would stand up for Gibraltar's The enclave has accused Spain

:02:00. > :02:06.British hands in 1713. It shares a border with Spain,

:02:07. > :02:11.but rejects any Spanish The current proposals mean a deal

:02:12. > :02:24.between the UK and the EU would not apply to Gibraltar

:02:25. > :02:26.without an additional agreement Gibraltar's chief minister has

:02:27. > :02:29.fiercely rejected this as an attempt by Spain to encroach on the rock's

:02:30. > :02:32.ability to control its sovereignty. It is unfair and unnecessary

:02:33. > :02:37.and clearly discriminatory. I am grateful Spain has been foolish

:02:38. > :02:43.enough to play this card early in this process and not at five

:02:44. > :02:47.minutes to midnight with an agreement in place,

:02:48. > :02:49.bar the issue of Gibraltar. The British government has

:02:50. > :02:52.been quick to affirm Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson

:02:53. > :02:56.tweeted that the UK remains implacable and rocklike

:02:57. > :02:59.in our support for Gibraltar. But these are draft proposals,

:03:00. > :03:05.due to be finalised by the EU Theresa May has until then

:03:06. > :03:11.to try to persuade them to drop this Our Political Correspondent Matt

:03:12. > :03:19.Cole is in our London studio. What could this mean

:03:20. > :03:30.for negotiations? And what chance will Theresa May

:03:31. > :03:33.have of persuading them? One might imagine this will make it on to the

:03:34. > :03:39.final paper of the negotiating strategy of the EU. The EU 25 27 as

:03:40. > :03:42.they will be without Britain are very much saying from here on in,

:03:43. > :03:53.they'll look after their own and Spain is one of them.

:03:54. > :04:01.The caveat is whether the deal would extend to Gibraltar. We are hearing

:04:02. > :04:06.from sources that the answer to that is absolutely not. Theresa May will

:04:07. > :04:09.have her work cut out on this. The big problem that has emerged from

:04:10. > :04:13.the negotiating stat jitt outlined by the EU yesterday is the idea that

:04:14. > :04:17.the Brexit divorce talks will have to take place before new talks on a

:04:18. > :04:20.new trade relationship can take place. I think possibly that's a

:04:21. > :04:25.blow to the British Government who wanted to do them in parallel but

:04:26. > :04:29.possibly this could be why Spain are introducing this idea now because I

:04:30. > :04:33.think they would think if they can get this signed off now, it would

:04:34. > :04:37.put pressure on Britain ahead of the trade talks because Britain needs to

:04:38. > :04:41.get the trade talks up and running and therefore if things he held up

:04:42. > :04:46.by this Spanish question over Gibraltar, I think that Spain would

:04:47. > :04:49.hope that gives them leverage. It's a surprise, people thought Spain

:04:50. > :04:52.wouldn't bring this in, they certainly said they wouldn't but

:04:53. > :04:53.they have. It's a problem for the Brexit negotiating team to sort out.

:04:54. > :04:57.Another one. Thank you very much. Two million people are set

:04:58. > :05:00.for a pay rise today, as the national living wage goes up

:05:01. > :05:03.to ?7.50 an hour. The change has been broadly

:05:04. > :05:05.welcomed by unions. But employers have expressed

:05:06. > :05:07.concern about the strain Here's our business

:05:08. > :05:13.correspondent Joe Lynam. 23-year-old Lewis is already paid

:05:14. > :05:15.more by the national living He certainly notices the difference

:05:16. > :05:21.from his previous company. I was struggling for money,

:05:22. > :05:25.it was a big concern for me. It was very much go to work come

:05:26. > :05:30.back, spend the night Now I can afford a social life

:05:31. > :05:37.and to do stuff in the local area. From today, workers over 25 must

:05:38. > :05:44.be paid at least ?7.50 an hour. If you work a full week

:05:45. > :05:49.you will get at least ?281.25. Many members were already paying

:05:50. > :05:54.staff more than the level For those that weren't,

:05:55. > :06:00.it's adding significant costs to their businesses,

:06:01. > :06:06.around about ?900 a year for staff on average and a further ?120 a year

:06:07. > :06:09.with the knock-on consequences for national insurance

:06:10. > :06:11.payments as well. Much of that cost will be absorbed

:06:12. > :06:14.by the businesses themselves rather than passing it on in the form

:06:15. > :06:17.of hire prices. Controversial business rates

:06:18. > :06:20.come into force today. Whilst most companies

:06:21. > :06:24.will be paying less, some, especially in the south-east,

:06:25. > :06:27.face much higher bills. And a new system for

:06:28. > :06:31.calculating car taxes starts. Hybrid car owners will be

:06:32. > :06:35.paying more than they did. Around 4,000 households in England

:06:36. > :06:40.earning more than ?100,000 a year have received taxpayers' money

:06:41. > :06:44.to help them buy a home. Official figures also reveal

:06:45. > :06:48.that the Help to Buy Equity Loan scheme has assisted more than 20,000

:06:49. > :06:51.households who were not Labour said it showed the initiative

:06:52. > :06:57.was "badly targeted" but the government insisted it

:06:58. > :06:59.continued to make home ownership Patients referred to the NHS

:07:00. > :07:05.for fertility treatment in Scotland will be eligible for three full

:07:06. > :07:08.cycles of IVF treatment. From today, the Scottish government

:07:09. > :07:10.is increasing the number of cycles funded by the health service

:07:11. > :07:13.for women under 40 It's expected to cost

:07:14. > :07:17.about ?1 million a year. It is thought that around one

:07:18. > :07:24.in seven couples experience In Scotland, up until now,

:07:25. > :07:29.women under 40 have been offered two Older women between 40 and 42

:07:30. > :07:40.will also be offered one cycle In other parts of the UK,

:07:41. > :07:47.the number of IVF cycles on the NHS In England, up to three full

:07:48. > :07:54.cycles are recommended. But local commissioning

:07:55. > :07:59.groups decide, and in half the areas in England,

:08:00. > :08:02.only one cycle is offered. In Wales women under 40

:08:03. > :08:05.are entitled to two cycles. The IVF programme in Scotland

:08:06. > :08:11.is expected to cost the NHS Money which has already

:08:12. > :08:17.been put aside. The minister says changes to IVF

:08:18. > :08:20.treatment in Scotland make it the fairest and most generous

:08:21. > :08:32.in the UK. Protesters in Paraguay have stormed

:08:33. > :08:34.the Congress and set fire to the building as anger grows over

:09:40. > :09:44.but it is already clear Gibraltar is likely to play a major role

:09:45. > :09:49.Yesterday, its government accused Spain which has disputed the UK's

:09:50. > :09:52.claim to the territory for 300 years of manipulating the European Council

:09:53. > :10:01.We're joined now by Gibraltar's chief minister Fabian Picardo.

:10:02. > :10:10.Thank you very much for your time this morning Mr Picardo. Can I get

:10:11. > :10:14.your reaction - a lot of people describe this as a surprise if not a

:10:15. > :10:18.shock that it was included within the EU's draft proposals - what was

:10:19. > :10:23.your initial reaction? Good morning. I think in Gibraltar, we did not

:10:24. > :10:26.expect to see Gibraltar singled out for discriminatory treatment in this

:10:27. > :10:29.way. Of course, there are going to be issues that Gibraltar needs to

:10:30. > :10:33.work won the United Kingdom and with Spain. Spain is our neighbour, it's

:10:34. > :10:37.going to be our access point into Schengen and the European Union, but

:10:38. > :10:42.to see ourselves singled out in a way that means that we cannot have

:10:43. > :10:47.the UK's new trade deal with the EU, such as it may be if one is done,

:10:48. > :10:52.without Spain's approval and say-so and perhaps seeking to extract a

:10:53. > :10:56.price is really quite disgraceful. Spain might have been expected to do

:10:57. > :11:00.this, but the European Council to have gone along with this, even

:11:01. > :11:09.putting it in a draft when Gibraltar is the place in Europe that was most

:11:10. > :11:13.pro-European Union, we voted 96% to stay in the UK, we might have

:11:14. > :11:18.expected this from Spain but not the European Council. It's up for

:11:19. > :11:21.discussion. The EU says that is one of the things, and that is the way

:11:22. > :11:26.they want to treat it. What would you have Theresa May do in advance

:11:27. > :11:29.of the actual talks starting? The European Council is saying this is a

:11:30. > :11:34.draft of the guidelines to go into the negotiation. This draft now has

:11:35. > :11:39.to be approved by all of the other member states to become the firm

:11:40. > :11:44.guidelines as at 29th April. I don't know whether the Maltese, the Irish,

:11:45. > :11:49.the Scandinavians, the Germans are going to go along with taking the

:11:50. > :11:54.30,000 people of Gibraltar and singling them out in the way this is

:11:55. > :12:01.proposed. In any event, it's the mandate to negotiate that's give

:12:02. > :12:03.tonne Mr Tusk and he then, or to Mr Barnier rather, and he arrives at

:12:04. > :12:08.the negotiation with the guidelines. When you arrive with a negotiation,

:12:09. > :12:11.you arrive with a list of achievements and you walk out

:12:12. > :12:16.achieving less than them. I think Theresa May is going to insist that

:12:17. > :12:18.the people of Gibraltar are not discriminated against, the Foreign

:12:19. > :12:22.Secretary who I spoke to yesterday said that he'd continue to be

:12:23. > :12:27.implacable and ruthless in the defence of the rights of the people

:12:28. > :12:32.of Gibraltar and I expect nothing else from Mrs May and her team. It

:12:33. > :12:35.sounds like you are satisfied with the assureties you have had from the

:12:36. > :12:39.British Government. Do you think the negotiations proper shouldn't start

:12:40. > :12:45.until Gibraltar is taken off the agenda? Well, look this is an issue

:12:46. > :12:50.which is being put on the agenda by the other side. We have no control

:12:51. > :12:59.what the other side talk about. You might similarly say let's not

:13:00. > :13:05.talking until the European take off the table any suggestion. One thing

:13:06. > :13:08.that people were putting to me after the referendum result was whether

:13:09. > :13:12.Spain might wait until there was a good agreement for the UK and at

:13:13. > :13:16.five minutes to Midnight raise the issue of Gibraltar then try to

:13:17. > :13:21.scumtering whole deal. Every cloud has a silver lining, Spain's played

:13:22. > :13:25.its card very early in this game, we can all now see them coming, it's

:13:26. > :13:29.time for people to stand up shoulder-to-shoulder with the people

:13:30. > :13:33.of Gibraltar and defend the interests of the 30,000 richest

:13:34. > :13:36.citizens that live in Gibraltar. Not sure what room you're in as we are

:13:37. > :13:40.talking to you, we can see the picture of the Queen and the flags

:13:41. > :13:44.behind you, but give us a sense of how raw emotions are over there?

:13:45. > :13:49.It's not my bedroom! This is the Office of the Chief Minister of

:13:50. > :13:53.Gibraltar where you'd expect to see those characteristics of what is the

:13:54. > :13:56.executive of a British territory. The British Government of Gibraltar

:13:57. > :14:01.is answerable of course to Her Majesty the Queen represented by a

:14:02. > :14:03.Government in Gibraltar. We feel passionately British and nothing is

:14:04. > :14:08.going to change us. We are not going to be a pawn. We want the culprits,

:14:09. > :14:12.because the European Union looks at Britain as though they are in an

:14:13. > :14:17.acrimonious divorce, we are the partner to the EU and we are the

:14:18. > :14:19.ones walking away, well Gibraltar wasn't responsible for that but we

:14:20. > :14:23.feel passionately British and nothing is going to change that.

:14:24. > :14:27.Thank you very much. I like the line about it not being your bedroom,

:14:28. > :14:33.very funny, we like that, thank you for your time. Glad he cleared that

:14:34. > :14:37.one up! I didn't think it was but, you know, now we know. Very smartly

:14:38. > :14:42.dressed in his bedroom in a suit and tie!

:14:43. > :14:49.Now to Tomas for the weekend weather.

:14:50. > :14:53.Good morning. Some of us are waking Up to this sort of weather. Lots of

:14:54. > :14:57.clear blue sky and fluffy fair weather cloud. Over the next few

:14:58. > :15:03.hours, we are going to see quite a change. The fluffy clouds will brew

:15:04. > :15:07.into something a little more dark and sinister, so we'll talk about

:15:08. > :15:10.the showers in a moment. There has been some rain around already across

:15:11. > :15:14.Wales and the north-west of England so it's not great everywhere, it's

:15:15. > :15:17.already raining and wet in some places and pretty grim. But we've

:15:18. > :15:21.got some sunshine in the forecast today but many of us will be

:15:22. > :15:26.catching the showers. The showers may bring thunder and light thing,

:15:27. > :15:30.hail too. The thinking is that early in the afternoon, say about lunch

:15:31. > :15:34.time, it's more western parts of the UK that'll get the heavier showers.

:15:35. > :15:38.South-western England through the West Country into Wales, the

:15:39. > :15:49.north-west here, Northern Ireland and most of Scotland.

:15:50. > :15:59.Later in the afternoon, showers in the east, perhaps some thunder too.

:16:00. > :16:02.Some of us will dodge the showers completely and will be wondering

:16:03. > :16:10.where are they. The night will be clear. Chilly with frost around,

:16:11. > :16:15.particularly across northern areas. Mostly grass frost. Tomorrow a

:16:16. > :16:19.different day. No showers. This high that is going to build from the

:16:20. > :16:23.south is going to stop the showers from forming. That is quite often

:16:24. > :16:28.what high pressures do, they put a lid on things. We then get a fine,

:16:29. > :16:32.clear day. Maybe just a few scattered clouds tomorrow, harmless

:16:33. > :16:36.ones. 16 or 17 in London, 13 for most though and some of the coastal

:16:37. > :16:39.areas a little fresher. Two very different days this weekend. A bit

:16:40. > :16:44.of sunshine, a bit of rain and sunshine and a bit of rain again.

:16:45. > :16:48.That's today. We'll call that April showers. A chilly night. Then

:16:49. > :17:00.tomorrow should be sunny from dawn until dusk.

:17:01. > :17:03.Patients referred to the NHS for fertility treatment in Scotland

:17:04. > :17:06.will be eligible for three full cycles of IVF treatment.

:17:07. > :17:11.From today, the Scottish government is increasing the number of cycles

:17:12. > :17:13.funded by the health service for women under 40

:17:14. > :17:21.Charles Kingsland is Professor of Reproductive Medicine

:17:22. > :17:32.Thank you for coming in. This sounds generous, three cycles for women

:17:33. > :17:35.under 40? It is. The first IVF baby was born in the National Health

:17:36. > :17:40.Service up the road in old ham of course. When the baby was born,

:17:41. > :17:45.there was such a public outcry about babies being born In test-tubes

:17:46. > :17:51.within the NHS, society wasn't really quite ready for those

:17:52. > :17:56.technological advances. IVF went underground and the NHS rejected it

:17:57. > :18:02.and the treatment went into the private sector. It grew up in the

:18:03. > :18:06.private sector. Over the past generation, various commissioning

:18:07. > :18:11.bodies have drawn IVF treatment back into the NHS and now of course it's

:18:12. > :18:18.a successful treatment. But some areas have been more successful than

:18:19. > :18:23.others and this is what's led to the postcode lottery where depending on

:18:24. > :18:27.where you live you have varying access to criteria. Now the

:18:28. > :18:30.Government guidelines have been followed and patients are allowed to

:18:31. > :18:37.have three cycles which is great for Scotland. You talk about varying

:18:38. > :18:42.degrees of access. In some places there is no individual access at

:18:43. > :18:49.all? That's right. IVF is very high profile as a subject. Sad

:18:50. > :18:55.beginnings, happy endings, damsels in disit's, wicked scientists, nasty

:18:56. > :19:01.doctors, it's a Harry Potter story. But you can live on one side of the

:19:02. > :19:04.road where you have access to funding, the other side of the road

:19:05. > :19:08.won't. In Croydon they have withdrawn funding recently. If you

:19:09. > :19:12.have a fertility problem which can be a devastating effect not just on

:19:13. > :19:17.your general health but on your whole life, you may not get access.

:19:18. > :19:23.So in parts of London, there is no NHS funding. Now in Scotland,

:19:24. > :19:26.provided you fulfil the criteria which are laid down, but there again

:19:27. > :19:31.you could say it's biassed towards women over the age of 40 because if

:19:32. > :19:34.you are under 40 you get three sickles but when you are over 40 you

:19:35. > :19:40.only get one arbitrarily. So it's not a question of being fair, what

:19:41. > :19:46.people need is the knowledge to know that it's equally unfair to

:19:47. > :19:54.everybody. So in Scotland, great, in Croydon, not so good. Statistically,

:19:55. > :19:59.if you look back 20 years, how much has IVF improved? Three cycles of

:20:00. > :20:03.IVF, are you likely to know after one cycle whether it's going to

:20:04. > :20:08.eventually be successful? Yes. When I first started many years ago it

:20:09. > :20:14.was a bit of a lottery. There were so many variables, the technology

:20:15. > :20:19.was in its early stages. Nowadays, it's far more successful. You can

:20:20. > :20:26.actually predict with a reasonable degree of certainty who is going to

:20:27. > :20:32.get pregnant. It's unusual nowadays to see couples who you think should

:20:33. > :20:37.have got pregnant but didn't. Not getting pregnant with IVF is far

:20:38. > :20:40.more predictable, as is pregnancy. No conversation about health care is

:20:41. > :20:45.complete without the financial picture, so in Scotland they've put

:20:46. > :20:50.a costing on this haven't they? Yes. It's a ?1 million figure. Wa would

:20:51. > :20:55.be the equivalent if you apply to it the rest of the UK, because that

:20:56. > :21:00.doesn't sound relative to other costs in the NHS a huge sum of

:21:01. > :21:04.money? It's not. IVF relatively speaking is cheap. It's not that

:21:05. > :21:10.expensive compared with other treatments. But there is this stigma

:21:11. > :21:15.about fertility which, is it a disorder, a disease, should we

:21:16. > :21:18.compare it with dementia and mental illness, these are the conversations

:21:19. > :21:22.that have to take place daily in commissioning groups, where do we

:21:23. > :21:27.put the money. It's only when you want to have a child and you can't

:21:28. > :21:32.and you can't get accessibility, you realise what a devastating effect

:21:33. > :21:36.infertility can have. What are the options for people who live

:21:37. > :21:39.somewhere where there is no funding? You need to get the right

:21:40. > :21:44.information from your commissioning authority. There's a lot of

:21:45. > :21:46.misconceptions about who does and doesn't get treatment. The

:21:47. > :21:50.commissioning authorities will know exactly. If you can't get treatment

:21:51. > :21:54.within the National Health Service, you then have to resort to funding

:21:55. > :21:58.the treatment yourself. That can be a lottery so it's important to get

:21:59. > :22:02.the right advice at the right time from somebody who you trust.

:22:03. > :22:05.Professor, thank you very much. Thank you.

:22:06. > :22:13.You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.

:22:14. > :22:16.City commentator Justin Urqhart-Stewart is here to tell us

:22:17. > :22:27.What have you got from the newspapers this morning? House

:22:28. > :22:31.obsession. And Nationwide is reporting the first fall for nearly

:22:32. > :22:39.two years. It's only a month before so it puts it into perspective. The

:22:40. > :22:45.average price of a home in the UK, ?207 News, gone up significantly.

:22:46. > :22:48.Just a small fall. The south still strong. Northern Ireland saw a

:22:49. > :22:56.slight increase. It was the only part of the UK which had a crash in

:22:57. > :23:01.2008. -- ?207,000. This little graph, it has some huge rises in it?

:23:02. > :23:07.Monthly changes, yes. They are going up. But it's a strange level they

:23:08. > :23:12.have on here. What looks like dramatic falls are 2.3% and the

:23:13. > :23:16.rises, so it's over-emphasising it but it's basically seeing something

:23:17. > :23:21.that's slowly slowing down. Really we are seeing the ownership rates

:23:22. > :23:27.coming down. Hardly surprising, 35-44, that was at 74%, now down to

:23:28. > :23:32.56%. We were talking about landlords earlier, many more people are

:23:33. > :23:36.Rennesing not buying? The figures there, they say that, it was only

:23:37. > :23:40.12% used to rent ten years ago, now 20%. South-east England people can't

:23:41. > :23:46.afford properties. That is a big change. The next story, snack

:23:47. > :23:49.machines? Yes, you can go to a snack machine because you want that

:23:50. > :23:53.chocolate bar. Yes, it's in the window calling you. Yes, I've got to

:23:54. > :23:57.have it now. I love people doing research. Here is a good use of an

:23:58. > :24:02.expert. It's established if you had to wait 25 seconds and there are

:24:03. > :24:06.other things in that snack machine rather than chocolate, you would

:24:07. > :24:10.have a healthy snack, your brain would start criticising you and

:24:11. > :24:19.thinking, maybe I should have the chocolate one, maybe I should have

:24:20. > :24:24.the healthy one. So it's the delay? The delay changes your mind. So do

:24:25. > :24:28.you think there should be - if you knew in advance there was a longer

:24:29. > :24:32.delay for the delivery of the clunk, if you knew it was going to take

:24:33. > :24:36.longer, you would think... Yes. I don't think that would work. I think

:24:37. > :24:39.if you were just standing there - we have been in that situation where

:24:40. > :24:43.you look at the vending machines and there are rows of chocolate bars and

:24:44. > :24:47.they are trying to make them a litling healthier now and you see

:24:48. > :24:52.one little lonely green apple which looks sad. It's been been there for

:24:53. > :24:58.months and it's never going to match up to the chocolate. You could gear

:24:59. > :25:02.it wrongly so that every time no matter what you punch in you still

:25:03. > :25:06.get something healthy but that would be really annoying. I like your

:25:07. > :25:13.thinking. Your next story is in the Daily Mail. It is. This one is, we

:25:14. > :25:17.all must have seen this from the 1955 film of the Dambusters. There

:25:18. > :25:21.we are, there is the Professor looking at the Bouncing Bomb in

:25:22. > :25:26.Herne Bay and the bomb falls apart. This is before the Dambusters raid.

:25:27. > :25:31.Lo and behold, I thought this being April 1st this was a spook. Yes, I

:25:32. > :25:35.was a little worried. But it's true, they have found part of the Bouncing

:25:36. > :25:39.Bomb, presumably one that didn't explode, presumably a testing one

:25:40. > :25:43.that fell apart. It's so heavy they can't move it. It might end up being

:25:44. > :25:47.a piece of art, which considering the other pieces of art I've seen

:25:48. > :25:53.recently, that looks impressive. There is a picture next to it of the

:25:54. > :25:57.original bomb. A captured one. Not sure how you capture a bomb! With a

:25:58. > :26:01.German fellow standing next to it. These things were absolutely huge.

:26:02. > :26:08.Almost like a seeingn't of it. ? Yes, just one end of it there. It's

:26:09. > :26:11.almost the height of an individual. Very brave standing there or

:26:12. > :26:19.foolish. It's already dropped by now. We are going towards the

:26:20. > :26:22.territory now where people might be thinking it's 1st April and what is

:26:23. > :26:27.what? I was waiting to be caught out. Surely this is true though, the

:26:28. > :26:30.winner by a short head phone, personal stereos for Grand National

:26:31. > :26:33.horses. That's what you need. When you are betting on the Grand

:26:34. > :26:39.National, look for the ones which have their own head phones on. Head

:26:40. > :26:44.phones? Yes. A nice picture of a horse with a hood on with its head

:26:45. > :26:51.phones and presumably with its iPad or other items. So horse play list,

:26:52. > :26:59.trot in the city by Billy idol, you better you bet by the Who and we are

:27:00. > :27:03.the Bob champions. I like that one! My favourite story is your last

:27:04. > :27:08.story of the day, this one in the Guardian? Yes. My goodness, George

:27:09. > :27:14.Osborne is a busy man. You can edit a paper, be paid huge amounts of

:27:15. > :27:26.money in the City for one day a week, but no, actually, you can have

:27:27. > :27:33.your own fashion designer job, Giorgio by Giorgio! There he is.

:27:34. > :27:37.It's not a line of designer fashion. What? ! Are you saying this isn't

:27:38. > :27:42.true? ! LAUGHTER.

:27:43. > :27:54.A new fashion design of hi-viz vacts. Jackets. We are on BBC One

:28:09. > :28:13.Kitchen, to face your food heaven and hell? Yes, I'm scared. Your idea

:28:14. > :28:18.of heaven? Prawns, chicken, something like that. What about

:28:19. > :28:24.hell? Hell would be rabbit. I'm with you on that! Not for me. I'm going

:28:25. > :28:29.to have to cook it as well so it would be more hellish. We are split

:28:30. > :28:34.down the middle. The two chefs seem to have their own opinion. Making

:28:35. > :28:39.his debut, Tommy Banks is with us. What are you cooking? Scallops with

:28:40. > :28:48.Yorkshire rhubarb. Interesting. Good. Why not? Ben Tish how about

:28:49. > :28:52.you? Classic roast chicken, Sunday lunch roast chicken cooked over a

:28:53. > :28:58.piece of bread with wild garlic mayonnaise. Even if you get your

:30:07. > :30:15.main news: Tensions are rising over

:30:16. > :30:17.Gilbraltar's position during Brexit, after the EU gave Spain a potential

:30:18. > :30:20.veto on any future deal The enclave's administration

:30:31. > :30:49.minister told breakfast why it is going to be a

:30:50. > :30:52.crucial few months. We can be very tough indeed you're in negotiation

:30:53. > :30:54.and one of the things put to me after the referendum was whether

:30:55. > :30:57.Spain would wait until there was a good agreement with the United

:30:58. > :30:59.Kingdom and then raise the issue of Gibraltar and that would scupper the

:31:00. > :31:02.whole deal. Every is cloud has a silver lining, Spain has played its

:31:03. > :31:05.card very early, we can all now see them coming, it is time for people

:31:06. > :31:08.to stand up shoulder to shoulder with the people of Gibraltar and

:31:09. > :31:09.defend the interests of the 30,000 British citizens that live in

:31:10. > :31:12.Gibraltar. Two million people are set

:31:13. > :31:19.for a pay rise today, as the national living wage goes

:31:20. > :31:22.up to ?7.50 an hour. The change has been broadly

:31:23. > :31:24.welcomed by unions. But there've been calls

:31:25. > :31:27.from campaigners for the rate to be higher to meet the true cost

:37:09. > :37:10.Ronald Koeman. They have had a really good run,

:37:20. > :37:20.the power of Anfield. we all have to create

:37:21. > :37:26.a special atmosphere. It is a new season, it is a new

:37:27. > :37:30.game, a new manager at Everton. I heard a little bit about the last

:37:31. > :37:34.two seasons of Everton, that maybe they were too afraid

:37:35. > :37:36.to play against Liverpool. Why do you need to be afraid

:37:37. > :37:39.to play against Liverpool? At the top, can anyone stop

:39:28. > :39:31.row. All eyes on Miami. Several hours of tennis watching ahead. 6pm,

:39:32. > :39:35.British time, it gets under way. Gearing up for the match against

:39:36. > :39:41.Caroline Wozniacki. We will talk a little more about that now. Johanna

:39:42. > :39:48.Konta has become the first British woman to play in the final of the

:39:49. > :39:51.Miami open tennis tournament. Can she win it? We will talk to a woman

:39:52. > :39:55.who can predict whether she will not, the former British number one.

:39:56. > :39:59.Jo Durie Let's start with the obvious one, can she do it? I think

:40:00. > :40:00.she can do it, but I think Caroline Wozniacki is going

:40:01. > :40:08.to be a little bit different from the last match in Australia where

:40:09. > :40:12.Johanna Konta won very easily, this time she will be far tougher. Talk

:40:13. > :40:16.to us about what you see in your Hannah Conser, because do those of

:40:17. > :40:22.us who watch, she seems like a confidence player, she has a style,

:40:23. > :40:39.she puts it out on the call, talk us through what her game has? Look at

:40:40. > :40:43.the top ten. Look at Jo Konta, she has turned herself around with the

:40:44. > :40:48.mental approach, steady as a rock, consistent with that, it has helped

:40:49. > :40:56.her game. She has a natural, good first serve, gets a lot in, she has

:40:57. > :41:04.improved her forehand. She works really hard. And she is totally

:41:05. > :41:07.changing herself. Interesting to hear you talk about this and how

:41:08. > :41:11.mentally she has changed herself, in practical terms, what does that

:41:12. > :41:16.mean, what has she done? She has found a way of processing how she

:41:17. > :41:21.goes about playing her matches. She is literally playing one point at a

:41:22. > :41:25.time, not dwelling on anything that goes wrong, she is always looking to

:41:26. > :41:30.the next point in a positive manner. She has managed to block everything

:41:31. > :41:36.out and get on with being in the present, which is a pretty amazing

:41:37. > :41:43.quality. She has beaten Venus Williams to get to the final, I know

:41:44. > :41:46.that people say that Venus Williams is not the player she was but in a

:41:47. > :41:48.major tournament, in that situation, a Williams sister is always a

:41:49. > :41:52.formidable opponent, psychologically, is that another

:41:53. > :41:55.marker? I think she quite slight playing her, she has beaten three

:41:56. > :42:01.times, she has been playing very well this year. The Williams sisters

:42:02. > :42:05.getting to the final of the stadium, nobody thought that would happen.

:42:06. > :42:13.That was a very tricky match. And then Simona Halep, one sets down,

:42:14. > :42:15.had not served for the match as well, again, her strong mental

:42:16. > :42:20.approach brought her throat. Exciting times. Could be potentially

:42:21. > :42:24.a hugely exciting year, she has got to a level where she has raised her

:42:25. > :42:30.game, what does it take for her to step up to the very top, to get into

:42:31. > :42:36.the top five, top three? I think that she just has too keep that

:42:37. > :42:44.strong mental approach, her forehand has improved enough, she may be able

:42:45. > :42:46.to improve it a touch more. Really, week after week. Now she feels

:42:47. > :42:51.comfortable being in that sort of top ten mix, looking for the top

:42:52. > :42:54.five, and you can even see in her interview, more relaxed about being

:42:55. > :42:59.there, and being in the company of these players. You get used to it,

:43:00. > :43:03.she will get more and more used to it. Wimbledon will be interesting,

:43:04. > :43:08.she can do well there, the clay will be tricky, her least favourite

:43:09. > :43:18.surface. At the moment I don't think any of those top players want to

:43:19. > :43:20.play her. Funny old world, lots of things change, something stay the

:43:21. > :43:23.same, Rafa Nadal and Roger Federer, what is that about? That was a great

:43:24. > :43:29.match between Nick Kyrgios and Roger Federer, I stayed up a bit too late

:43:30. > :43:33.watching it! Isn't it... All the over 30 somethings doing well,

:43:34. > :43:39.players maturing later in their careers. Coping with everything a

:43:40. > :43:45.little bit better. Great to hear, I love what Joe just said, this could

:43:46. > :43:50.be an important Wimbledon for Johanna Konta, I wonder what that

:43:51. > :43:54.could mean. -- Jo. I also like the idea that good tennis players are

:43:55. > :44:00.getting older, there is hope for us still! LAUGHTER

:44:01. > :44:02.You can follow live text commentary of Saturday's final on the BBC Sport

:44:03. > :44:08.website from about six o'clock. The main stories: Britain has said

:44:09. > :44:12.it will protect Gibraltar from any sovereignty claims made by Spain

:44:13. > :44:16.during Brexit negotiations. A pay rise for 2 million people, as the

:44:17. > :44:25.national living wage rises to ?7.50 an hour.

:44:26. > :44:29.This man has been earning his money this morning! Busy weekend for

:44:30. > :44:39.weather. Rainbow weather, classic mixture of

:44:40. > :44:43.sunshine and showers, this picture tells the story of today. Big clouds

:44:44. > :44:48.forming a little bit later on in the afternoon, pouring rain here, and

:44:49. > :44:53.then a mile either way, the sunshine beating down. A real mixed bag on

:44:54. > :44:59.the way. You can see quite a few breaks in the cloud at the moment,

:45:00. > :45:01.some of us enjoying fine weather, rain around already this morning.

:45:02. > :45:05.Showers will get going in the next couple of hours or so, starting to

:45:06. > :45:11.form across southern and western areas of the UK. Today, it is going

:45:12. > :45:14.to be one of those days where the forecast is not going to satisfy

:45:15. > :45:20.everybody. Some of us will get the odd downpour, thunder and lightning,

:45:21. > :45:23.hail, some of us will miss it all together, some of us will be

:45:24. > :45:28.expecting the rain and it will not come. Real mishmash of everything.

:45:29. > :45:33.We get it, we are in April, these are April showers, this is what

:45:34. > :45:36.happens this time of the year when we get strong sunshine, staring up

:45:37. > :45:45.the air, the clouds bubble up and we get this ex of weather. Showers will

:45:46. > :45:48.eventually clear a way through the evening, the sun is driving them,

:45:49. > :45:52.when the sun sets, the showers will drive away, that is what showers do,

:45:53. > :45:57.it is their life cycle. Clear night, temperatures 5 degrees in the north,

:45:58. > :46:01.just about cold enough for grass frost. Nothing more than that, much

:46:02. > :46:04.two miles across the South will stop tomorrow, different day, after a

:46:05. > :46:09.showery Saturday, Sunday promises to be a sunny one. It will be crisp and

:46:10. > :46:15.sunny from the morning onwards, very few clouds developing, very small

:46:16. > :46:21.risk of catching a shower, maybe across eastern areas if some of

:46:22. > :46:24.these clouds get big enough. For most of us, dry day, beautiful day

:46:25. > :46:27.to be out in the garden doing the gardening, providing you don't get

:46:28. > :46:33.too many downpours. Otherwise it will be on the muddy side. On

:46:34. > :46:38.balance, fine day. Let's summarise, tale of two halves, April showers

:46:39. > :46:40.today, chilly overnight, and then a fine sunny Sunday, whatever the

:46:41. > :46:47.weather, have a great weekend! Curling is one of Team GB's most

:46:48. > :46:50.successful Winter Olypmic sports. In the future, though,

:46:51. > :46:55.they could be getting help Mike's been to a farm in Kent

:46:56. > :47:00.where they've built England's first VOICEOVER: Where once they milked

:47:01. > :47:08.cows, they are forming a new breed, intend, the Garden of England,

:47:09. > :47:10.they are milking something very rare outside of Scotland,

:47:11. > :47:14.curling talent for the future. It is because there

:47:15. > :47:18.was nothing in England, I came down from Scotland,

:47:19. > :47:26.where curling was something I would say, the cows, they made

:47:27. > :47:38.a mess, you did not get any money, and they make a mess

:48:27. > :48:29.my job is to sweep as soon To try to get it the extra few

:48:30. > :48:33.feet and centimetres. You don't need to be a typical

:48:34. > :48:39.athlete to get along with curling, there is lots of different types

:48:40. > :48:43.of curlers, and it is a great sport because there is individual skill

:48:44. > :48:45.involved, but you need to play I like sliding, you have

:48:46. > :48:49.to have a very specific technique to get it right,

:48:50. > :48:51.takes time to perfect. It comes down to tactics,

:48:52. > :48:53.comes down to knowing what the opposition is thinking

:48:54. > :48:56.and where you can put They do say this game is like chess,

:48:57. > :49:01.I am going to give him a couple The great thing about this board,

:49:25. > :49:27.here we go... You don't need to be a typical

:49:28. > :49:34.athlete to get along with curling, there is lots of different types

:49:35. > :49:37.of curlers, and it is a great sport because there is individual skill

:49:38. > :49:39.involved, but you need to play In this sport, it is never quite

:49:40. > :49:56.over until the last stone. 39 days, four hours, 14 minutes,

:49:57. > :49:59.that is how long it took a group of four friends to row across the

:50:00. > :50:02.Atlantic Ocean. Their aim was to raise funds for James' Place - a

:50:03. > :50:05.centre for men dealing with anxiety and depression. It was named in

:50:06. > :50:07.memory of the brother of one of the crew who killed himself ten years

:50:08. > :50:10.ago. We'll speak to Harry, his mum and the rest of the rowing team but

:50:11. > :50:17.first here's the story of their journey.

:50:18. > :50:26.VOICEOVER: Relief, delight, exhaustion, tears. A mix of emotions

:50:27. > :50:33.like no other. Following a journey like no other. Before setting off on

:50:34. > :50:39.the 3000 mile unaided row across the Atlantic, Rory, Toby, Sam and Harry

:50:40. > :50:43.explained why they were doing it. Ten years ago, my brother James

:50:44. > :50:48.passed away, he took his own life. I have always wanted to do something

:50:49. > :50:52.in his memory. Along came the challenge of running the Atlantic.

:50:53. > :50:59.The journey from the Canary Islands to Antigua took just over 39 days,

:51:00. > :51:03.there there were runners -- they were runners-up in the race, they

:51:04. > :51:05.raised it record amount by a transatlantic rowing team, more than

:51:06. > :51:10.half ?1 million, which will fund a centre for men confronting anxiety,

:51:11. > :51:16.depression and suicide. The messages we got from people saying that they

:51:17. > :51:20.had managed to overcome some sort of depression or issues like that,

:51:21. > :51:35.pushing out this message. James' mum and brother, Clare and

:51:36. > :51:37.Harry and friends Rory, Sam and Toby are here. Very good morning. Can I

:51:38. > :51:43.just checked, how we are, aches and pains, saws,

:51:44. > :51:52.have they all gone away? -- can I just check, how you are? -- sores.

:51:53. > :51:57.It is one of the toughest sporting challenges in the world, more people

:51:58. > :52:03.have climbed Everest. More people have gone into space! Quite

:52:04. > :52:08.outstanding. You must be very proud. Where were you, when the challenge

:52:09. > :52:13.was taking place. I was attached to my phone, looking at the app,

:52:14. > :52:18.following every single move. Once they had gone it was better, it was

:52:19. > :52:26.the anxiety leading up to their departure that was fairly intense.

:52:27. > :52:28.All challenges are emotional, physical for you, as a mother, very

:52:29. > :52:35.emotional, I should imagine, mixed emotions, supporting these young

:52:36. > :52:39.men, and thinking about your son. Yes, when Harry broached the

:52:40. > :52:43.subject, 18 months ago, I said, you know something, forget it, that's

:52:44. > :52:50.not happening. But the boys won me round. I gave my wholehearted

:52:51. > :52:57.support. I know that it was absolutely for the right calls and

:52:58. > :52:59.the right thing. James's memory. I put myself behind it, it was the

:53:00. > :53:05.most incredible moment of my life, when they came in. Also, you talk

:53:06. > :53:15.about raising money, raising money for very specific thing, for a

:53:16. > :53:18.sanctuary, a place for people to go to and get help, what is that, how

:53:19. > :53:21.will it work? When James died, ten years ago, he went looking for help,

:53:22. > :53:26.in the days leading up to his death, and he did not get the help he

:53:27. > :53:30.needed. He was sent to Accident and Emergency and was told to sit and

:53:31. > :53:34.wait, that is the wrong environment. I have always been thinking, what

:53:35. > :53:38.would have made the difference, what might have saved his life? I feel

:53:39. > :53:42.that a quiet, calm, peaceful, nurturing environment where men can

:53:43. > :53:49.feel comfortable and they would be judged, there will be looked after,

:53:50. > :53:52.that is the right plan. Very keen that we don't ignore the guys at the

:53:53. > :54:03.back of the boat as well! Sam, Rory, how are you! Tell us, this place,

:54:04. > :54:06.that you are talking about, there is a big issue around young men,

:54:07. > :54:08.particularly, not talking about their emotions and issues around

:54:09. > :54:11.mental health, must be at the forefront of your mind is doing the

:54:12. > :54:22.challenge. Very much so, we are four men in that moment of our lives

:54:23. > :54:25.where we may be at risk. Unfortunately, it is an issue that

:54:26. > :54:28.affects so many young guys, and we feel that we have tried to kick the

:54:29. > :54:31.stigma as much as we can, but there is a long way to go. A lot of times,

:54:32. > :54:34.after a huge trauma, people want to do something practical, you want to

:54:35. > :54:41.do something to help, you have done something really concrete. Does that

:54:42. > :54:47.bring some comfort? Does that bring reassurance? From my point of view,

:54:48. > :54:53.what is incredible about the campaign was that they raised the

:54:54. > :55:01.stigma surrounding mental health issues in particular suicide. --

:55:02. > :55:06.they erased the stigma. The following they had was all about

:55:07. > :55:10.what they were doing. There was nothing dark, no sadness surrounding

:55:11. > :55:14.it, it was really positive. I think we want to take that forward to

:55:15. > :55:19.James's place is a very positive thing. We have interviewed a few

:55:20. > :55:28.people that have done daft adventures in the past and often

:55:29. > :55:31.they get back in the first thing they do is start planning the next

:55:32. > :55:34.one, is anything going on, have you done your bit? For now, I think,

:55:35. > :55:36.yes, for the time being. We would all like to do something at some

:55:37. > :55:42.point in the future, but we couldn't try to replicate what we have just

:55:43. > :55:47.done. More than just the rowing, it was an emotional journey as well,

:55:48. > :55:51.with the charity in mind, and James at the front of our minds, and so to

:55:52. > :55:54.go out and try to do something again, it would need to be

:55:55. > :55:59.different. We would like to do something in the future. Lovely to

:56:00. > :56:00.see you all here today, congratulations. Thank you very much

:56:01. > :56:05.indeed, well done. You might remember The Crystal Maze,

:56:06. > :56:08.the quiz show in the 1990s. And if you ever wished

:56:09. > :56:10.you could have a go, The format has been revived

:56:11. > :56:14.as part of an immersive theatrical production,

:56:15. > :56:15.which sees people take part, influence the show, and even become

:56:16. > :56:17.characters themselves. Breakfast's Tim Muffett

:56:18. > :56:31.has been to have a go. The audience as participants,

:56:40. > :56:48.today in Manchester, based on the early 90s television

:56:49. > :56:50.programme. It was a really British TV show,

:56:51. > :56:52.a sense of irreverence, it was funny, tongue

:56:53. > :56:57.in cheek, silly... That's just the way the Wookie

:56:58. > :57:10.grumbles(!) Like the London show that has been

:57:11. > :57:13.selling out for a year, this new Manchester production

:57:14. > :57:15.will see audience members We have broken the disconnect now

:57:16. > :57:23.between people wanting to be active and passive,

:57:24. > :57:26.wanting to play and follow a journey rather than just be sat

:57:27. > :57:28.in a dark auditorium. This immersive production might be

:57:29. > :57:31.inspired by a television game show, but many theatre producers have

:57:32. > :57:33.sought out new audiences by making Montagues and Capulets, a very

:57:34. > :57:47.different version of Romeo + Juliet, the latest production by these

:57:48. > :57:49.immersive specialists, Audiences choose which

:57:50. > :58:06.subplot to follow. There is even dodgeball and a 90s

:58:07. > :58:08.rave. Very immersive, not quite

:58:09. > :58:10.what I was expecting. The fact it involves

:58:11. > :58:12.everybody, that is the thing, The arts Council has seen a big rise

:58:13. > :58:17.in the number of funding applications from experimental

:58:18. > :58:19.theatre group, up 42% since 2014. Many immersive shows like this one

:58:20. > :58:21.based on Alice in Wonderland have proved popular,

:58:22. > :58:23.but some feel that the What has changed in immersive

:58:24. > :58:31.theatre, it has gone from an art form that was new and exciting

:58:32. > :58:34.to being something that people are ending up

:58:35. > :58:36.going for the experience of it. If you haven't got something

:58:37. > :58:38.you want to say and achieve, by bringing the audience

:58:39. > :58:41.into the show, you may as well not do it immersive leak,

:58:42. > :58:44.you may as well not do it at all. Confusing at times, audience

:58:45. > :58:53.participation is a must, -- do it immersively,

:58:54. > :58:56.you may as well not do it at all. Confusing at times, audience

:58:57. > :58:58.participation is a must, the growth of immersive theatre

:58:59. > :59:12.suggest that watching a show I am going to persuade you to have a

:59:13. > :59:13.go at that! That is all from us, back tomorrow,
