Hello, this is Breakfast, with Ben Thompson and Kat Downes.

Six people are arrested for what the police describe

as a brutal attack on a young asylum seeker.

It happened at the 17-year-old stood at a bus stop in south London -

detectives say they are treating it as a hate crime.

Good morning, it's Sunday second of April.

More than 250 people die in Columbia after a massive landslide -

Johanna Konta wins the biggest tennis title by a British woman

It motivates you more to keep working hard and keep enjoying.

Also in sport - a surprise defeat for Premier League leaders Chelsea.

Their lead is cut to seven points after a 2-1 defeat to Crystal Palace

It promises to be and nice day today. Sunshine on the way.

Yesterday, we had to dodge a few showers but not today.

Four men and two women have been arrested on suspicion of attempted

murder after a young asylum seeker was attacked in South London.

Police say they're treating it as a hate crime.

The 17-year-old victim suffered severe head injuries

but his life is not now believed to be at risk.

The young man believed to be Kurdish Iranian was waiting at a bus stop

late on Friday night with two friends when he was approached by a

group of about eight people. He was attacked after telling them where he

came from. We believe it's a hate crime. Prior to the attack taking

place, the young person was asked where he was from and when they said

they were asylum seeker, that is when the frenzied attack took place.

Police say the gang chased the man a round the corner and injured his

street where they kicked him in the head and left him on the floor

unconscious. After that, members of the public came to help him. The

attack only stopped when the sound of sirens was hurt. The gang made

off in the direction of this nearby pub. The young man was wrapped --

left with a fractured skull and a blood clot on his brain. He is in a

serious but stable condition in hospital. His two friends escaped

the attackers and received only minor injuries. The local MPs said

Croydon had generally very good relations between people of

different backgrounds. He called the incident and appalling crime against

somebody who had come to this country to seek sanctuary. Andy

Moore, BBC News. More than 250 people are now known

to have died in landslides in Colombia, with many more

injured and missing. Heavy rains on Friday

night caused rivers to burst their banks

in the town of Mocoa, From the ground you get a sense

of the force of the mud which pushed cars through buildings and ripped

trees from the ground. But it's from the air that the scale

of the damage is apparent, with the stew of mud and water

stretching for miles. In some areas there is no way

in or out, with roads, bridges and entire

neighbourhoods swept away. This is how many spent the night,

surrounded by their belongings, People without homes,

in a town without power By torchlight, rescue workers

continue to look for signs of life. Hundreds of people are still

missing, many of them children. A list of their names and ages have

been pinned to the walls It has gone missing

and the rest is as you can see. Unusually heavy rain on Friday

morning caused the Mocoa River to burst its banks. Landslides might be

common in this region but residents are shocked by the scale of the

damage. More than 1000 troops and police officers have been sent to

the region to help with the rescue efforts but authorities have warned

the death toll is likely to keep rising. Greg Dawson, BBC News.

At least 18 people have been injured after the lighting of a carnival

bonfire went wrong at an event in a north-east suburb of Paris.

Dramatic video posted on social media showed a pyre

exploding seconds after a fuse was ignited, sending debris

Police said a wooden figure had been doused with petrol before being lit.

The incident happened at the end of the Yellow Carnaval at Villepinte.

The Chancellor is to urge Indian businesses to use the expertise

of the City of London in the latest attempt by ministers to build trade

Philip Hammond's trade mission to Delhi and Mumbai is part

of an effort to build a partnership with India as it tries to forge

a future as a global manufacturing powerhouse.

Our business correspondent Joe Lynam has more.

Depending on how Britain quits the EU, the city of London is set to

lose thousands of jobs in the coming years as some banks and insurers

leave to remain in the single market. Now the Chancellor Philip

Hammond is looking to court new customers. He leads a delegation of

business leaders as well as the governor of the Bank of England to

India this week, hoping that Indian companies will use the city of

London to fund the estimated ?1.2 trillion of spending needed to

modernise Indian's infrastructure. They hope to use the trip to open

new markets in India for companies that are part of the new technology

sector. All of this forms the backdrop for a comprehensive

free-trade agreement which Britain hopes to sign with India want it

formally leave the EU but that won't be easy. India is yet to sign any

free-trade deal with anyone and one stumbling block could be a demand by

India to allow its citizens free movement to and from Britain.

The organisers of the University boat races say they have no plans

to postpone the event - despite the discovery of what's

thought to be an unexploded Second World War bomb in the Thames.

For Bob Dylan - it was definitely a case of better late than never

when he finally received his Nobel prize for literature.

during a very private ceremony in Stockholm.

He was awarded the prize last year, but failed to travel to Sweden

Feathers were flying in Philadelphia yesterday.

Residents had a massive pillow fight.

It's part of International Pillow Fight Day, which saw mock battles

After the goose and duck down had settled, participants

were encouraged to donate their pillows -

which would be given to the homeless.

Is there much left inside the pillows after they have been...

There's not too many feathers. It looks quite tame as far as I can

see. No burst pillows, no injuries. It is looking like fun, that's the

main thing. But take it through the front pages.

The Sunday Telegraph leads on a warning for airports and nuclear

power stations. It says Britain airports and nuclear forces are told

to tighten their defences. The concern is whether hackers could get

into the systems and carry out something sinister. A picture of

Johanna Konta celebrating the biggest win of her career in Miami.

We will be talking to various people about that over the course of the

morning. A great victory for her. Their frontline story revealed rich

peers paid for doing nothing. Lord that up to ?40,000, they say, for

little or no work. They have been investigating what it takes to claim

expenses in the House of Lords. They say it's fairly easy. The front of

the Sunday Mirror says what they call an exclusive story from Tom

Jones and says "I needed therapy over my wife's death." She died of

cancer. He says it took inquest to breaking point. On the front of the

Mail, Google blood money, they say. It is because of the inside pages,

they have a story about a man who posts videos on YouTube, showing how

to pierce stab proof vests like the one worn by PC Keith Palmer when he

was murdered in the Westminster terror attack. They say that Google

has blood on their hands because they are promoting videos like that,

people showing on the Internet how to stab through stab proof vests and

white shields as well. Much more on all of those papers. -- riot

shields. Great Britain's Johanna Konta

is celebrating the biggest victory She won the Miami Open last night

beating former world number One Caroline Wozniacki

in straight sets. It's the most significant

victory by a British Woman A short while ago, her coach

Andrew Fitzpatrick gave A fantastic end to a long two weeks.

There was pressure is and a whole host of things from the outside but

from within, it's, just take it day by day. It's just nice to see her

push herself over the line in what is potentially her biggest win in a

tournament so far. Just as she is progressing really well, she is

someone who is very mentally strong. She has a process that she has

developed that is true to her. As long as it she trusts in doubt and

trust in that process and builds day by day, I can tell you, sitting by

the side, I couldn't even put my elbows on to the side of the court,

there was a black panel and I couldn't even put my hands on it. Jo

works incredibly hard on her fitness. She understands that part

of her game is to do with movement. Those people knows tennis is a

physical sport now. Especially coming up against Caroline Wozniacki

who is one of the best athletes out there, Joanna worked very hard on

those conditions. Tomorrow morning, we are flying to Charleston to turn

our attention to clay courts. It will be a relatively fast

transmission the American clay courts. As far as rankings go, it's

not going to change anything, really. As I said, Joe is lucky that

she has a strong process and a strong mental approach to what she

is doing. The exterior pressures that some people have with those

sorts of things, it doesn't come into effect. She is very centred

around her development and it's not so much a bout of the ranking and

who she is playing, it is more about what she is trying to do and how she

is trying to evolve. We all just went to a nice meal. Everybody with

the team and a few friends of family that were in town. Nothing too wild,

just a nice celebration of her achievement and the hard work that

everyone, Jo and the team around her, support staff and everyone, has

put in and will continue to put in to help her continued to grow. It

was a nice evening. The pressure will now mount on her. We will all

be talking about whether she can win at Grand Slam not.

Richard will have more on that historic win in about 20 minutes.

You are watching breakfast from BBC World News. Here are the main user

stories this morning. Six people are arrested

after what police are describing as a brutal attack

on a young asylum seeker. The most successful female British

tennis player in over a generation. Johanna Konta beats

Caroline Wozniacki to claim Click visits Brian Eno for a rare

peek inside the studio - and mind - of the artist

and producer. but here is Thomas with the weather.

A lovely sun dries behind you there. -- sunrise. That was from yesterday.

This is actually a thunderstorm. None of that today. Yesterday we had

to dodge the showers and today we are predicting a very much better

day. What is the weather headline? It is sunny with a few scattered

clouds. That's all it will be today. From morning onwards, it is pretty

much funny. This will be one of the weather forecasts where we will be

picking out a lot of towns and cities and places along the south

coast because it is sunny all round. It really is beautiful. This is

lunchtime. Sunshine through Cornwall, at Devon, the Isle of

Wight, to hit Kent and Sussex. Lovely weather across Wales,

Nottinghamshire, Lancashire, Cumbrae Cumbrae

A little bit on the chilly side. A bit of grass frost around but it

won't last very long. The sun is strong. A fine, fine, warm -ish day.

We are predicting 60 Celsius for the boat race. We will get some updates

from the River Thames. There could be a couple of light showers around

today. Just a few light ones are around Lincolnshire into East Anglia

but that is pretty much it. A fine evening on the way. Clear skies,

quite near peak, temperatures down to about five or six degrees in some

areas and then the weather for Monday is going downhill a little

bit across western areas. This high which is bringing us great weather

today is out of the scene. We have weather fronts coming in off the

Atlantic which means rain in Northern Ireland tomorrow morning.

It will reach western Scotland as well. For the bulk of England,

tomorrow, another beautiful day. Temperatures getting up to about 20

degrees in London and right across Yorkshire, some sunshine. The

weather front will push across other parts of the UK during the course of

Monday night. Here is the week ahead, looking pretty settled, not

much rain. A little on the fresh side. Overall, not so bad.

The so-called Islamic State took control of Iraq's second largest

city Mosul two-and-a-half years ago, damaging priceless Assyrian

and Sumerian antiquities in a campaign to erase elements

Now under control of the Iraqi security forces,

our Middle East Editor Jeremy Bowen has been to see the damage done

These were the statues of gods, Sumerian gods,

and they were were great big statues with wings,

feet with claws, and the faces and torsos of humans.

Cuneiform writing is one of the earliest kind of alphabets,

about 5,000 years old, and it's considered one

of the greatest contributions to civilisation.

And this wasn't just cultural vandalism, though it was that,

it was an attempt to remake history, to destroy a civilisation,

Inside there are large exhibition rooms.

High ceilings, pillars, it's a classic museum.

Now, in other buildings here, other parts of the museum here,

you can see that this wasn't just an exhibition hall,

And when they came here to destroy all of this,

they were also trying to create something new.

But far from being that, it turned into the exercise

It's brought war down onto the Iraqi people once again.

That was our Middle East Editor Jeremy Bowen.

We'll be back with a summary of the news at 6:30am.

Now it's time for the Film Review with Gavin Esler and Mark Kermode.

Hello and welcome to The Film Review on BBC News.

To take us through this week's cinema releases

We have Graduation, which is a low-key and intense drama.

We have Ghost in the Shell, controversial live action adaptation

And Free Fire, the new film from Ben Wheatley.

Ben Wheatley, we are both fans of Ben Wheatley.

Graduation is from Cristian Mungiu, the Romanian director of 4 Months,

3 Weeks and 2 Days, which you remember we reviewed

This is another low-key and very intense drama.

The story is a doctor, his daughter is on her way

to school, is attacked, she gets a broken wrist

and the doctor is just simply worried it will affect her exams.

He is desperate for her to get great exam grades because he wants to be

He is convinced that she needs to get away because the place

they live is not somewhere that he wants his

All he can focus on is this desire for her to get good exam grades.

As a result of it, he gets drawn into a web

That somebody knows somebody who could perhaps ensure

the exam grades are OK, but only in return for a favour

for a deputy mayor who needs to be moved up in his wait

The daughter, understandably, is not pleased about the idea

It is, and you see from that, single shot, basically one shot per scene.

What I love about this is it's a perfect blend

On one hand, it's a story about a father and a daughter,

on the other hand it's a story that social corruption is everywhere.

Every conversation is, ooh, that building's

being going on for ages, yes it will be a backroom deal,

It's a film in which the personalities of the characters

completely draw you in, and you believe in their personal

stories, but you also understand it is telling a wider story,

about what it means to grow up in a society in which everything

seems to be sort of slightly on the wrong side

As is so brilliant with this director, what he manages to do

is get to that point across, but never sounds hectoring,

you never feel like what you're watching is a political statement.

What you feel you're watching is a really intense drama

in which the doctor, for example, he's concerned

about his daughter, but has a mistress.

At one point he says to his wife, everyone cheats

And he says, but look where it got you.

It's an interesting film about guilt and complicity.

Some people have compared him to Michael Haneke, haven't they?

Because lots of bad things are happening under the surface

Although I think, personally, I think there's a lot more

tenderness, a lot more humanity in what's happening here.

Haneke's films are terrific, but very harsh, very sharp,

sometimes accusatory, I think.

Live action adaptation of a celebrated manga,

a 1995 anime, which people revere for very good reasons.

Scarlett Johansson is Major, a human ghost in a cyber

She's a person, she's a robot, she's a weapon.

That film has become the cause of some controversy

about whitewashing, that Scarlett Johansson

It has to be said, the director of the '95 anime has said,

and I quote, "There is no basis for saying that an Asian actor must

It a controversy that has dogged the film, to some extent.

Like the plot of the film itself, you can look at this and think,

it's a soul of one thing transplanted into a shell

which is slightly artificial and slightly more glossy.

However, I was strangely impressed by it.

I went in with fairly low expectations.

I think it does a very good job of evoking the future world.

People have talked about it looking like Blade Runner,

it looks more like The Fifth Element, oddly enough.

I found that yes it changed and simplified the narrative to some

extent, and loses some of the melancholy and depth

of its predecessors, but as a piece of multiplex

entertainment, it was better than I expected it to be

The story is in Boston in the 1970s there is an arms deal going down

between a group of people, all of whom are

The whole thing looks very volatile and looks like at any moment it

could fall apart appallingly, and of course it does.

Try not to hit any of the metal work, because I don't want to get

any of those bling burns on my new...

I don't know about you guys, but I for one think Vern's

My guess is you're whatever you're paid to be, pal.

What I really like about it is this, on the one hand it's a tense drama

about a bunch of people in a warehouse, all of whom are

armed and all whom are fighting each other in various different ways.

However, it also has a kind of screwball comedy element.

The best way of describing it, it's like a silent movie,

slapstick sensibility, but with a soundtrack

which reminds you of those Loony Tunes cartoons,

that is really, really brilliantly put together.

It keeps you on the edge of your seat.

It's tense, but also very, very comic.

The idea is that all of these people are variously

They're all laughed at, from their ridiculous quotes

Vernon keeps saying "watch and vern, watch and vern."

What I liked about it, I think what Ben Wheatley

and his film making partner Amy Jump managed to do is make

it a cross-genre film, which they always do.

OK, yes, it's a thriller, but also a comedy, but it's

It's a comedy about the fact that if you take...

People have compared it to, they say it's like the last movement

It's like that sequence in Naked Gun 2 1/2, when there's

the close-range gunfight, with two people hiding

behind the same dustbin, but it's like that that,

It passes the six laughs test in the first ten minutes.

It's passed the six laughs test in the last two minutes.

You were laughing all the way through.

I'm laughing at you talking about it.

OK, fine, so it's me you're laughing at!

But Cillian Murphy, Brie Larson, Sharlto Copley, Armie Hammer,

a really terrific cast, and every single one of them clearly

rising to the challenge of this, thinking it's a great script.

I know nobody ever comes out of the cinema and says this,

This is out in cinemas at the moment.

It's described by its director as a social thriller,

and it's very much influenced by Rosemary's Baby

But it also alludes to other horror movies like Red State and Green Room

and films like Tales from the Hood and To Sleep With Anger.

It's a sort of horrifying satire about racism in post-racial America,

about liberal, rich white people, with this broiling

I saw it in a packed cinema and it really played to the crowd.

It's done terrifically well and I think it's great.

A coming-of-age drama that appears to be written

and directed by someone who likes the protagonist.

It's smart, funny, intelligent and terrific performances

from Hailee Steinfeld and Woody Harrelson.

And Kelly Fremon Craig who wrote and directed it, I think,

I thought it was really touching, very tender and very funny.

Since this is our last Film Review and I am on holiday from tomorrow,

Very good, you will enjoy it, you'll enjoy it, but you have to go

I will do. Thanks very much.

A quick reminder before we go that you'll find more film news

and reviews from across the BBC online at bbc.co.uk/markkermode.

And you can find all our previous programmes on the BBC iPlayer.

Thanks for watching, enjoy the movies.

The 17-year-old victim suffered severe head injuries but his life

Police say they're treating the attack as a hate crime.

More than 250 people have been killed after mudslides swept

through a Columbian town on Friday night.

17 neighbourhoods have been destroyed,

and over a 1,000 emergency workers are now involved

Hundreds are injured and missing, and the death toll

President Juan Manuel Santos has declared a state of emergency.

The incident happened at the end of the Yellow Carnaval at Villepinte.

A third body has been found in the aftermath of the floods that

hit Australia's east coast in the wake of Cyclone Debbie.

Authorities are searching for another three people

who are still missing in Queensland and evacuation orders remain

in place for a number townships in northern New South Wales.

But it's expected that the conditions will ease

Yellow car owners have rallied in support of a vehicle blamed

for ruining tourists' photographs in a picturesque Cotswold village.

The convoy drove through Bibery in solidarity

with 84-year-old Vauxhall Corsa owner Peter Maddox after his car

was vandalised earlier this year for spoiling the view.

He said he was overwhelmed by the support.

That is the tourist photo that everybody wanted to take that

because he parked his yellow card in it, he had hate letters, eventually

it was scratched with the windows broken. Is he supposed to have

camouflaged car? What Carruth allowed to have? I was listening to

this on the radio. Where else is he parked his car? -- what car. People

were saying, "Well, he could have picked a more subtle colour". I

think he should just go and buy a big yellow van next.

Such a fantastic win for Johanna Konta. Superb, wasn't it?

So Johanna Konta is celebrating the biggest win of her career.

It's her third world tour title but easily the most significant.

She beat former world number one Caroline Wozniacki

Miami is a place of the relaxed and cool, not when you are in baking

heat and playing one of the biggest matches of your life so far. Johanna

Konta, break one, game one. It takes energy to sit and watch let alone

compete with the athleticism of Caroline Wozniacki. There were

breaks in surf but not intensity. Like all the sport's best, Johanna

Konta peaked at the most important points. Wozniacki is a former world

Mobil one and yet conquer started this as a great, a mark of her

startling progress. -- Johanna Konta. Bodies tyred, Johanna Konta

kept going. She got there in straight sets. Now up to seventh in

the world, Johanna Konta says she is benefiting in playing in Andy

Murray's shadow. You won't find much shadow in Miami. It's an incredible

accomplishment, not just myself but my team and my family back home.

It's always good to get these sorts of, I guess, moments in your career.

It gets, what's the word? A bit of a pat on the back for the work you are

putting in It motivates you more to keep

working hard and keep enjoying. There was a surprise defeat

for Premier League leaders Chelsea yesterday - they went down

2-1 to Crystal Palace. Second placed Tottenham

are keeping up the pressure - COMMENTATOR: The leaders are ahead

just after four minutes! Against struggling Crystal Palace, it looks

at another Saturday stroll for Chelsea. And 91 first half seconds,

the Stroll became a gruelling. As these guys left Antonio Conte

staring. Therefore the legal loss this season. It looked like a

one-sided title race. Eric Dyer a human son scored in a 2-0 win to

narrow the gap at the top of the table. It is important for us to be

there. We are there fighting. Fighting for the Premier League.

Behind Spurs are Liverpool. They didn't need any help from 774 they

had all the help they needed in number ten. Philip continuo scored

one and a hand in the other two as Liverpool won the Merseyside derby

will stop with a chance to close in to the top four, Jose Mourinho had

every reason to be cheering ahead of the match against West Brom but

despite having three quarters of the possession, he had to be content

with an even share of the points in a goalless draw. Shakespeare may not

be the special one that his masterminded son turned around at

Leicester. It helps when your players can do that. COMMENTATOR:!

-- feast your eyes on that! It was a pretty sight. Pretty easy, boss. In

a goalless draw against Southampton and Bournemouth, is this the worst

penalty in Premier League history? COMMENTATOR: Harry Archer has missed

it by a mile! At least you have not got far to go home, hey Harry?

Elsewhere Hull City got a crucial three points in their battle to get

out of the relegation zone - they came from behind to beat

And there was another defeat for bottom side Sunderland -

Celtic will win their sixth consecutive league title

Brendan Rodgers's side are 22 points ahead of their nearest rivals

Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership.

My job was to get the best win we possibly could. There are different

ways to win. People will tell you that you can win something and it

not be the same feeling but to win and get the spirit we had here

throughout the whole football club, it can make it very special and also

the way we have played football. So for me, to share that with the

players and the coaching staff and everyone at the club, to make

everyone a champion, would be very special.

There were four games in the Scottish Premiership yesterday.

Partick Thistle came from behind to beat Ross County 2-1

and strengthen their position in the top six.

Partick now four points clear of Kilmarnock who drew one

Inverness are now bottom of the table, replacing

St Johnstone played the second half of that match with nine men

after two of their team were sent off for fighting each other.

Rangers drew 1-1 with Motherwell to get within ten points

Wasps are out of European club rugby's premier competition -

They lost 32-17 to Leinster in their quarterfinal.

The Irish side put four tries past the Premiership leaders

to win - they'll play either Clermont Auvergne or Toulon next.

Munster are also into the last four - they'll face either Glasgow

The two remaining quarterfinal matches are later today.

In the European Challenge Cup, Bath are into the semi finals

England winger Samesa Rockodoguni scored twice for Bath.

Gloucester are also through - they beat Cardiff Blues.

Warrington remain bottom of Super League but a late

Kurt Gidley penalty did earn them a first point as they drew

Widnes beat Leigh for their first win of the season

Wakefield Trinity meanwhile are up to sixth in the table.

They beat Catalan Dragons 38-18 in Perpignan thanks largely

Charley Hull's hopes of winning the first golf major in the women's

calendar - the ANA Inspiration tournament -

appear to be over going into today's final round in California

She finished second last year, but after a round of 71.

She's eight shots behind this woman -

who heads the field on 13 under par overall.

She narrowly missed out on a birdie at the seventh

World number one Mark Selby looks in fine form ahead

of the World Championships later this month.

He's into the final of the China Open after a 6-4 win

He'll play Mark Williams in today's final.

Four world records have been smashed by one woman

at the Prague Half Marathon in the Czech Republic.

Kenya's Joyciline Jepkosgei beat Paula Radcliffe's 14-year-old

record for 10k on the road, along with the marks for 15

She won the race in a record one hour four minutes

It was only the fifth time she had raced the distance.

Quite an achievement to her but also it just shows how good Paula

Radcliffe was in a record. To come out at your fifth attempt of the

Maritime. Only the fifth attempt! And break a record that had stood

for that long. -- marathon. And also what an achievement by Johanna

Konta. Little over two years ago, she was just inside the top 150 and

now she is ranked so high. A lot of people think she could go on and win

a Grand Slam. We will be talking about that bit later on. That was a

shocker, that penalty, though, wasn't it?

Council tax, water, phone, prescriptions -

just some of the services we use that went up in price yesterday.

It's all because inflation is rising, reaching it's highest

Hannah Maundrell is the editor of Money.co.uk -

and Hannah you've called yesterday 'National Price Hike Day'.

We are all going to feel a bit worse because we are shelling out of

author everyday things? Allan absolutely that most things you can

make simple savings that will save you the amount it went up yesterday

-- absolutely. Let's go through the things. The first headline,

prescription charges, going up by 20p in England. Council tax going up

5% for 90% of households in England. We had a letter through say we will

have to pay some more. A broadband customer, the charges have gone up

late to pounds from what they call a basic board than service. Mobile

providers as well. These prices up by 2.6% as well. Why now? It tends

to happen this time of year. It is the start of April where all the

different price hikes kick in especially if they are inflation

linked. We also see energy bills going up at this time. The big

energy suppliers have whacked up the prices and the average household

would pay over ?100 more which is crazy. Is it fair, is it to do with

inflation, is it because the supply -- the energy supplies, the mobile

suppliers, are seeing increased costs that they need to pass on or

is it because it costs more? If the quality of service isn't going up,

that's another question. Especially EE, 02, and Vodafone, they can add a

pound to your bill. For energy supplies, that is the big question.

Are they charging a reasonable amount? The government is looking

into it. We have been talked about inflation for a while. It has been

low and it's starting to pick up. There is a tendency for people to

think about inflation, it doesn't matter, it's only a couple of

pounds, but it keeps -- it does add up. We are at 2.3% now. Robert

thinks it statistics look at, -- for all the things that statistics look

at, it is pushing inflation. The same with food prices, they are

going up. We all will feel our wallets pinched a little bit harder

but the good thing is, you really can do something about it. It takes

like pulling teeth. Here's Tomasz with a look

at this morning's weather. It's springtime. And it matches my

tie. This is a picture from Stevenage. They look like flying

cuddly teddy bears! What have we got in store today? Sunshine and a few

clouds. Yesterday the clouds were pretty dramatic. We had

thunderstorms and hailstorms. Not the case today. Today it's a

different story. The winds are light, more sunshine around and the

winds are quite strong. This time of year a lot of us don't realise it is

as strong as it is in September and in September we can burn easily and

we can easily earn in April as well. I nearly said March! Anyway, this is

what it looks like around lunchtime. Temperatures are little on the fresh

side, about 10- 14 degrees. They will peak late in the afternoon. But

sometimes what we don't realise is around noon or one o'clock that's

when it feels warmest because we've got that run high in the sky. Still

waiting for Dominic for some updates on the boat race -- waiting for some

updates. Just a few fair weather cloud is, about 16 degrees. About 13

or 14 degrees for most of us. A bit more fresh in Newcastle and

Scotland. This evening the weather will be clear for a time in all of

the UK and later in the night, into the early hours of Monday, the

clouds start rolling in off the Atlantic and we are expecting rain

to push into western parts of the UK. This weather front is going to

squeeze its way in. The sky we would have had today -- the higher we

would have had today moves in. That means in Belfast and Glasgow we are

in for some at least light rain late on Monday, but for the vast majority

of England it is looking fine and Wales not bad. Temperatures about 18

tomorrow. 15 in Yorkshire. How about the week ahead? We've got not much

rain on the way at all. Looking settled most of the week and a

little on the fresh side, about 12- 14, which is about what we get this

time of year. We've been running spellcheck on

you. No problems this time. It's all

being checked, doublechecked and triple checked!

It must have been that coffee you had.

We'll be back with the headlines at 7am.

Now it's time for Click, with Spencer Kelly, who's been

getting a rare peek inside the studio and mind

of the self-proclaimed 'non-musician' Brian Eno.

A wizard who likes decibels, who has won Grammies,

The former member of the band, Roxy Music, has added his unique

production sound to the biggest acts in the world -

groups like U2 and Coldplay, and some chap called David.

And it's his love of random, so-called generative art,

His new work, Reflection, is also rather unpredictable.

It is a generative music app which follows rules defined

and refined by Eno, but which plays differently every time you listen.

So 14% of these notes, a random 14%, are going to be pitched down

The second is that 41% of them are going to go an octave down

I would go further, quantum scientist.

Eno has spent weeks, even months, tweaking these rules

and probabilities which, when they're all when combined,

cause these sounds to randomly echo, bounce, transpose or not

So these are all different types of scripters.

And then there's a whole lot of other stuff.

Now, a lot of music is based just on things like that and it goes

Now I will putting in some scripters.

First thing I'm going to put in is a way of reducing

So it's only playing 80% of the beats.

Now, let's have it hit some other drums, occasionally.

Already it is a pretty crappy drummer, I have to say.

Well, no, I have to say, actually, this is way more interesting,

with the greatest of respect, than the original drumbeat,

It makes it sound human. Now we'll put in some rolls.

Traditional music, you have a piece which you lock down,

You're locking down a kind of piece of it.

It's almost like you're taking this, or part of it, and you're locking

that down, this is how I might want the piece to be but I don't mind

I'm trying to kind of make a version of me in the software,

I'm always interested in what is at the edge of my taste

envelope, if you like, and randomness is a way

Have you ever thought about whether you can copyright

Yeah, that's an interesting question.

If you sell the app to somebody, do they own the music that comes

Because they've constructed it, in a way.

All the bits are mine, but the final construction

I don't think it's very easy to make a case for saying it's my music,

because it sort of is in a modern sense of what composing means.

We spent about an hour with Eno and in the next few days,

you can see more inside Brian's brain online.

This week, Samsung launched its latest mobile phones.

Just a few minutes to go until the launch starts and there's

an incredible level of secrecy here but I guess there is a lot

at stake for Samsung after the Note 7 debacle.

We're just waiting to see what the S8 has in store for us.

Soon the hype turned to cold hard facts.

Out of this Samsung Unboxed event, a phone...

So here we have it - the S8 and the S8 plus.

Not even the Plus seems to be that large.

That's because the screens on both of them curve over the edges.

There's been a lot of hype about this.

Personally, I'm not really sure it feels like that big a deal,

but it does mean that you get a screen which is bigger,

So a few of the features that we've been told about today,

Yesterday we had to dodge a few showers but not today.

Four men and two women have been arrested on suspicion of attempted

murder after a young asylum seeker was attacked in South London.

Police say they're treating it as a hate crime.

The 17-year-old victim suffered severe head injuries

but his life is not now believed to be at risk.

The young man believed to be Kurdish Iranian was waiting at a bus

stop late on Friday night with two friends when he was approached

He was attacked after telling them where he came from.

Prior to the attack taking place, the young person was asked

where they were from and when they said they were an asylum seeker,

that is when the frenzied attack took place.

Police say the gang chased the man round the corner and into this

street where they kicked him in the head and left him

After that, members of the public came to help him.

The attack only stopped when the sound of sirens was heard.

The gang made off in the direction of this nearby pub.

The young man was left with a fractured skull and a blood

to rise in Columbia, where the Red Cross now says more

than 200 people are known to have died following mudslides

in the town of Mocoa. More than 1000 soldiers

and emergency service personnel have joined the rescue effort,

which is continuing as we speak. Let's speak now to Dimitri

O'Donnell, a reporter All we know, the last official

figures which were released by the military, stated that at least 254

people have died in this mudslide and it is unfortunately likely to

rise as the day goes on. 400 people have been injured and more than 200

people are still missing. 300 families in this densely populated

mountainous area have been affected due to these landslides that just

deluged the town after three separate rivers broke their banks

and flooded entire districts and communities. 17 different

neighbourhoods have been affected and five of those completely

destroyed. We are looking at some incredible pictures at the moment of

the flooding and towns that have been badly affected. I wonder about

the rescue efforts. I know a number of the major roads there have also

been washed away. That's right. In the early hours of these rescue

operations, the biggest hurdle is trying to get access to Macoa. Many

towns were just washed away or just blocked. That prevented a lot of aid

reaching. As darkness fell in Macoa, they have been thermal cameras

attached to drones and they have been flying over the some of the

affected areas, try to locate the people still trapped under the

rubble. The survivors of this deluge, this massive mudslide, are

being temporarily housed. The Colombian air force are due to the

interested as well in some of the challenges for this and emergency

services as it gets into day two. You talk about them tried to rescue

people trapped under the rubble. Any indication of how long it will go on

for? What the civil defence and Colombian governments have said are

that for the first 72 hours, the crucial first 72 hours, it will

remain in recovery operations. They want to find people live and that

remains the case. They are deploying 1100 soldiers and police to the

region and 2500 people. That will be the case as this day goes on and it

is still very early on in the morning in Colombia and as the day

goes on, more and more people are likely to join the search. As the

authorities have indicated, unfortunately, the toll is likely to

rise. There was one good story earlier today. 13 children were

airlifted out of a very affected region in Macoa. They hope that as

first light dawns, they will be able to perform several tasks to get the

people out of the region out of the area that need it most. Landslides

like this are not uncommon in that part of Colombia. What are the

authorities doing to make the area safe to prevent future disasters

like this? Yes, they are very common in this south-west region of

Colombia. Last year, two minor ones killed around 20 people. It is due

to the fact we are in the middle of a rainy season in Colombia. A lot of

the buildings are unstable so if you are adding movement in land or a

river bursting its banks, it will cause a lot of devastation.

Interestingly, a lot of the locals in Macoa are saying that

deforestation around the watershed of these three Rivers did contribute

a lot to the devastation and the death toll even though there was a

warning put out at midnight on Friday. They say if those forests

were left intact, that could have acted as a buffer and prevented a

lot of the deluge of water reaching some of those areas that were set

out in Macoa. They are also leading a combination of climate change.

They said that the rains this year in particular, they haven't seen

anything like it. It has been worth than in previous years. Really good

to talk to you. Keeping us across those devastating landslides that

have already affected so many people. The death toll is at 254.

Many, many more are still missing. The time is at 13 minutes past

seven. It is time to go over to the weather. A bit of a mixed bag over

the next few days? Yes, today is looking pretty beautiful. Look at

this nice picture. A double rainbow from yesterday. I suspect it has

been a little bit stressed out. Rainbows are usually a bit more

curves, but really beautiful. These showers came from big clouds like

this one. This isn't quite a cumulonimbus cloud, nearly. It looks

a bit like a cauliflower! The very mixed day yesterday. We are going to

get these smaller clouds today, so for most of us it's a fine and dry

day. This is the big picture in the next couple of hours. Lots of sun

around and the chance of a couple of lighter showers developing later

across some eastern parts of the UK. Around lunchtime it is looking

beautiful. If you can, get out there and enjoy the weather. Hardly a

cloud in the sky. Very light winds. The sun will feel pretty strong.

Moving into the Midlands, Northern Ireland. Notice if you can squint at

the screen you can pick out showers in eastern areas, but most of us

will miss them. Fine in Scotland as well. Temperatures of about 11

degrees. That's lunchtime across the country. This is... The graphics are

little bit jerky. We will get through this! Clear skies across the

UK. Temperatures of about six degrees. There might be a little bit

of Mr round. -- mist. On Monday, weather fronts coming in out of the

west, which means the weather will go downhill little bit through the

course of Monday. I've got a feeling that these graphics are about to

crash, guys, so what I will do is hand back to you after just

summarising that Monday is looking like a pretty good day. That's it!

Back to you. Those early-morning gremlins!

Oh, they are working now. I could see that the thing that's moving

around is jerking around, so the graphics were all over the place.

We didn't know what was going to come next! May be some holiday

snaps, your shopping list! We got through it, anyway.

See you soon. Coping with it like a true pro! Thank you.

When three-year-old Poppy-Arabella Clarke was killed

crossing the road by a pensioner who'd been told to stop driving

because of poor eyesight, her parents called for a law

requiring medical professionals to report people unfit to drive

Their calls now have the backing of government

medical advisor Daniel Sokol, who says the authorities shouldn't

rely on the honesty of the patient to admit they're no longer safe

He joins us now from our London newsroom.

Good morning. How does this proposal differ from the current medical

advice and currently what GPs are or aren't obliged to do? It isn't just

GPs, it is other medical professionals as well, like surgeons

and other specialists. When a patient is deemed on the drive, the

doctor will advise the person to inform the DVLA, but the legal

obligation on the part of the patient, and advise that they

shouldn't drive. Most of the time the patient says, absolutely.

Occasionally the patient says, no, I will continue to drive because it

will be so disruptive to my life. In those situations that doctors should

try to persuade the patient that he should not drive and disclose the

fact. If the patient refuses, then the doctor should tell the DVLA

himself if the doctor thinks this would pose a danger to the public.

The problem at the moment, as you've indicated, is that doctors rely on

honesty of the patient. If the patient says, of course, I will stop

driving, and doesn't, then that usually isn't followed up. So you

may have someone on the roads at the moment who is blind as a bat or

could have an epileptic seizure and could cause the Mendip harm to other

people. -- tremendous harm. But talk about the doctor first. Does this

raise concern about that doctor- patient confidentiality? If I went

to the doctor, would I be deterred from seeing that doctor if I thought

they could potentially tell the Mac on that I should drive and it may

stop me going in the first place? -- tell the DVLA. Currently, if you

refuse to tell the DVLA the doctor can breach of confidentiality if he

or she thinks you are putting others at risk. That's the current

situation, but the current situation doesn't make it mandatory for

doctors to disclose that information. In my view it should

be, a cause that is human nature that many people will lie to their

doctor in order to keep their licence and continued their way of

life. In the introduction we talked about that devastating impact it can

have, when people who are unfit to drive are still on the road, and he

would very much like to see doctors deal with this in the way they deal

with infectious diseases, making people aware of the state of the

patient so they deal with infectious diseases, making people aware of the

state of the patient survey can do no damage? That's right. The law

already recognises that although Conti -- confidentiality is

important, it isn't absolute. There are certain circumstances when there

can be a breach. With certain notifiable diseases, especially

unpleasant diseases like Kolarov and the plague -- the plague, you must

tell the authorities. The rationale of course is that it is to protect

members of the public from potentially very serious harm. The

same principle applies in my view to patients who are unfit to drive, who

get behind the real and can cause death and other serious injury.

Interesting talking point and I'm sure it will go on. Thank you and

good to talk to you. As we've been hearing this morning,

Johanna -- Johanna Konta on her match last night. More on this

brilliant story for British tennis now. Talk to a little bit more about

the context of this. A big win for Johanna Konta, but how big an

achievement is it for her? I think it's a very strong case for saying

it is the biggest win by a British woman since 1977. The structure of

the tour has changed over 40 years, but this is one of the big four

event that the women play every year on the WTA tour, just one tear --

level below the grand slams. There's so much history in Miami as well. It

has a strong pedigree going back many years. To win this, when you

are playing the best in the world, over a 12 day period, she had to win

six matches in ten days, it's a perfect dress rehearsal for winning

a grand slam. To have won mac and on the final against the former world

number one, in Caroline Wozniacki, it shows the pressure that Konta was

able to take into her stride. She has such mental strength these days,

compared to how she was when she was coming up the ranks. Do you think

she has what it takes to win a grand slam? Will she match Andy Murray's

achievements in the coming years or even months? I think it is possible.

We would never have dreamt of saying this two years ago. She has

performance anxiety, which basically means she couldn't cope with

pressure situations when the matches got tight, and it masked her now

obvious talent. She said she always felt she could be world number one,

or rather that that was the dream, something she wanted to be when she

was small, but she admits it has taken her longer. Sunrise to the top

of game very young. When she was eaten, Caroline Wozniacki was world

number one at 19. -- the player she has beaten. There is no reason why

she couldn't win a grand slam at Wimbledon. Her successor far has

been on the hardcourt. At Wimbledon is grass. It is a good surface for

her. Until you have a good run at Wimbledon, for many people you don't

really exist. I'm not being horrible, but a lot of people who

aren't big tennis fans tune into Wimbledon but they don't follow

things all year round. We will have to watch and wait, but a really good

start to the year for Johanna Konta. Thanks for bringing us up to date on

that. More about that great win with Richard in a few minutes.
