16/04/2017 Breakfast

Hello, this is Breakfast, with Rachel Burden and Roger

A North Korean missile test fails as it explodes just

The test took place just a day after a huge military show

of strength in the capital Pyongyang.

In the next few hours the US Vice-President Mike Pence

will arrive in South Korea for talks about the nuclear threat

Good morning, it's Sunday 16th April.

There is a sense that people are coming together and uniting behind

the opportunities that lie ahead. Theresa May urges unity over Brexit

as she delivers her Easter message. The world's oldest woman

dies at the age of 117. Emma Morano put her long life down

to genetics and her diet of eggs. In sport, Tottenham make it seven

Premier League wins in a row to keep up the pressure on

table-topping Chelsea. And from the countryside

to the classroom. We'll be looking at the lamb cams

helping to teach children in inner And we have the weather. Hello and

good morning to you. Happy Easter. That does not look promising. It is

already waning in the rest of Scotland? Is it heading your way? We

will find out in a few minutes. An attempt by North Korea to launch

a test missile has failed, a day after it issued

a nuclear warning to the US. American officials believe

a land-based ballistic missile exploded within seconds of take off,

close to the east coast The test, which is in violation

of UN resolutions, came just hours after a massive military parade

was held in Pyongyang US Vice-President Mike Pence

will arrive in the South Korean capital this morning for talks

on the North's nuclear ambitions. Our US correspondent

Laura Bicker has more. Pyongyang is being warned. These

naval warships are within striking distance of the North Korean

capital. The message- the US is ready to act if provoked. North

Korea is a problem and the problem will be taken care of. North Korea

has two restrain its behaviour. The key time for behaviour is now. China

is the key. These talks lay the groundwork. Donald Trump said he

received assurances that they would help put an end to the nuclear

ambitions of North Korea and believe that is why he has dispatched

warships. China is already applying pressure at its border and placed a

ban on imports of North Korean coal. If President Trump is weighing his

options, his best hope is in Beijing. The US could also push for

more UN sanctions but critics believe that punishes the people of

North Korea, not its leaders. The Pentagon has denied any suggestion

of a pre-emptive military strike. But Donald Trump's actions in Syria

prove he is a president prepared to take action quickly and without

warning. US troops in Afghanistan are advancing after the dropping of

a massive bunker Boston bomb known as the mother of all bombs. They

display of firepower from the world's strongest military that just

might make a one make think twice about launching any attack.

Meanwhile, the vice president, Mike Pence is on his way to South Korea

to reassure Asian allies and offer them an ironclad commitment to come

to their defence. His message is that the US will do whatever is

necessary to keep the world safe. Our Foreign correspondent,

Steve Evans, joins us from Seoul. Steve, what has been the reaction

there to this latest attempt by North Korea to test

launch a missile? The reaction to the missile launch

has been predictable. Condemnation. The reaction from the White House is

interesting. No reaction, basically, they are not commentating. The sense

you get is that the time of words is over and now is the time for action.

The big question here is what kind of action? 25 million people in

South Korea live within range of North Korean artillery. And the

South Korean government will tell Mr Pence that if they take pre-emptive

military action against North Korea then there is the risk of that

blowing up into a serious war. The situation here is much more

complicated than it is, say, with bombing in Syria or Afghanistan and

you get the sense that Washington is now starting to realise that. Thank

you very much. We will speak to you again later.

We'll be speaking to former Foreign Secretary Sir Malcolm Rifkind

about the situation in North Korea at about 10 past 7.

Theresa May has used her first Easter message as Prime Minister

to say the UK is coming together after the Brexit vote.

The PM said opportunities would emerge from Britain's decision

to leave the European Union thanks to the country's shared

She also stressed her belief in the importance of religious

Let us come together as a nation, confident in our values and united

in our commitment to the sill the obligations that we have one

another. Let us work together to build that bright future that we

want for our country. And together, build a stronger, Sarah Britten that

truly does work for everyone. -- stronger, Sarah Britten.

The Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn used his Easter message to urge

people not to standby in the face of society's problems.

The Leader of the Opposition said Easter should be a time to reflect

on the current challenges, both at home and abroad.

Mr Corbyn called for action on homelessness, a crisis in the NHS

It would be easy to retreat into our private lives because of challenges

that seem overwhelming, allow ourselves to be divided and blame

others. We need to respond to these problems through action and support

for social justice, peace and reconciliation.

The evacuation of Syrian residents from towns under siege has resumed,

after dozens were killed in a suicide car bomb yesterday

The attack happened at a check point where thousands of civilians

In the past few hours people in Turkey have begun voting

in a referendum which could significantly increase the powers

If approved, the role of Prime Minister would be scrapped,

as our correspondent Mark Lowen explains.

A divisive campaign has ended and Turkey now faces the biggest

political choice in its modern history. Both sides made a frantic

push to the end. Voter turnout will be decisive in the outcome. The yes

side believes a stronger presidency, scrapping the post of Prime

Minister, will make the government more efficient. If they win, the

President will receive enhanced powers to appoint ministers, choose

judges, issue degrees and dissolve Parliament. A human chain by the no

side who say the reforms would remove parliamentary checks and is

and that an authoritarian President Erdogan is it destroyed was left of

Turkish democracy. It has been a traumatic of months in Turkey with

an attempted coup and repeated terror attacks that have killed

around 500 people. The government says a stronger leader could face

down terrorist. Critics argue that the President has failed to keep

Turkey safe. And so a crucial country at the geopolitical

crossroads is deciding its future path. The outcome will be felt far

beyond the borders. More than 5,000 people have been

rescued from boats off the Libyan The Italian coastguard says the good

spring weather has been tempting more migrants to attempt

the crossing to Europe. Protests have been held

across the United States - calling on President Trump

to release details on his taxes. At least 14 people were arrested

in Berkeley, California, Thousands of people held marches

in more than 100 locations, to coincide with the traditional

deadline for Americans The President broke a tradition

by not releasing his paperwork An Italian woman -

who was thought to be the oldest person in the world -

has died at the age of 117. Emma Morano from northern Italy

was the last person verified to have Here she is celebrating her 117th

birthday in November last year surrounded by family and friends

at her home in northern Italy. Asked how she felt on reaching 117,

she said she felt well. Born in 1899, Emma Morano's life

spanned three centuries. The eldest of three children,

she outlived all of her younger She survived an abusive marriage,

the loss of her only son, two world wars, and more than 90

Italian governments. And she worked in a factory

until she was 65. Emma Morano thought

it was probably her diet. TRANSLATION: I eat two eggs

a day, and that's it. I don't eat much

because I have no teeth. Always eating the same things,

always at the same time of day. Her doctor of 27 years thought

there were other reasons too TRANSLATION: The first

factor is genetics. It is her own condition,

a natural phenomenon, Her personality would be

fundamental as well. The mayor of the small city

in northern Italy where she lived said she had an extraordinary life,

and she will always be remembered We had the relative of somebody who

was 117 on yesterday. Don't quite know yet if that person is now the

oldest in the world but thereabouts. Just do think that she was born in

the 19th century. Blows your mind. We will look at the newspapers now.

Starting on the front page of the Sunday Times. Most of the paper 's

lead with the same story this morning, the ongoing activity in

North Korea. A display of their power during the parade over the

weekend. The latest missile test, we are told, at least according to

South Korea, has failed. But the Ansey has been upped and it is a war

of words between Donald Trump and North Korea. Sunday Times is

claiming that Donald Trump is ready to strike at the nuclear Arsenal of

North Korea. The Sunday Telegraph has a lot of different stories.

North Korea here, an interview with Laura Trott over here, the

24-year-old who was so successful with her husband 's... Sorry, she is

now Laura Kenney. This is an interesting story down here. The

term of five former archbishops of Canterbury have been discovered by

builders were digging a part of the church, lifted up a few paving

stones and discovered a secret parsonage way downplay crypt. They

found the Bishop's mitres on top of some of the tombs. The front page of

the Observer ran with a slightly different story. Looking at the free

schools as the government heralded as their big plan for education in

the past few years. The Observer says they have their hands on

information that suggest it is only the wealthy regions that benefit

from free schools. Also the ongoing row but on comments made by one of

the columnists. Another picture from John Yang. -- Pyongyang. This is

serious stuff, this UK brawl, enabling farmers to an act. That

will be scrapped as part of the Brexit process. The story from

another number of papers concerns a television chef and his son who is

quite unwell. His wife had a serious illness as well and he is discussing

that in the Sunday Mirror this morning. Also on the front page of

mail. And I am sure it you get lots of lines like this, he was watching

the drama unfold via an hour on his phone. -- and app on his phone. And

another story there on the escalating situation in North Korea

on the front page of the Mail on Sunday. It is 14 minutes past six

and you are watching breakfast. You're watching

Breakfast from BBC News. North Korea has tried - and failed -

to launch a test missile, a day after a massive parade

to show its military strength. Theresa May has used her Easter

message to urge people to "unite", as Britain prepares to leave

the European Union. We'll be joined by double

Olympic gold-medallist, Joanna Rowsell Shand,

as we look ahead to the final day of action at the Cycling World

Championships in Hong Kong. Here's Philip with a look

at this morning's weather. The headline gives it away. It was a

lovely day yesterday. We have always been suggesting that the Easter

weekend was going to be something of a mixed bag and this is the forecast

for today. A little bit cloudier than yesterday and some rain. Some

of you might welcome the rain. There is an area of high pressure in the

Atlantic which is starting its wake and is already manifesting on the

western side of Scotland and northern Ireland. The question is,

will it come anywhere near you? If you are right near the heart of the

British Isles, there is a rare chance that you might get to see it.

It won't amount to very much in some parts and for the northern parts of

Scotland, you have your own supply of showers here. The central belt,

it will pull away after this. Probably at its heaviest in the

northern parts of Wales and the western facing slopes of the

Pennines. At this stage, around about lunchtime, down to at East

Anglia and the Southern counties, UNC very much. This south-western

quarter went see very much in the way of rain -- you won't see. If you

are anywhere near the great swathe of cloud, it will feel cold and

pretty miserable. Then we are off and running into Easter Monday and

with the wind beginning to go around towards the north, well, in that

going to stand decidedly chilly because it is already called up

towards Shetland. Some of the cold will begin to drift through the

south of Scotland. Brighter skies follow one behind. Those figures are

locked in single figures. Further south, temperatures pretty where we

have been for a number of days that is the future comes further south,

it spreads and the risk of frost. Some areas will see -5 in Scotland.

Certainly, for the first half of the four coming week, there would be

some frosty nights with high-pressure beginning to develop.

I think we will see some sunny spells. A bit of a fly in the

ointment for some today with the rate that some frosty nights --

rain. I will be alert to not falling into the trap that assuming that the

picture behind... I had my suspicions.

Easter Day. Lots of Easter wrecks in your house. The Easter bunny could

be a rising. A lot of people when they hear it will grow. Cracks are

beginning in the popularity of the humble Easter egg as retailers stop

providing gifts. Let's look at some of the pictures that you have kindly

sent to us. Branches are decorated by all sorts of decorations. I'm not

sure if they are home-made. The same decorations come out every year.

Very impressive. Lesley Dorling sent us her tree

and said: "We have always decorated our homes at this time

of year, more decorations in stores just means we have

more choice". Anne Chege has opted for this

lovely Easter bouquet. And Anne Berardinelli sent us

a photo of her tree - Apparently these days you can buy

carrot shaped Easter lights. We have Easter crackers last weekend. Did

you? You can tell us and share with us how you are celebrating Easter

and Easter presents for children. When did that become a thing? Well,

they get plenty of eggs. Lots of chocolates. We will have more clear

at 630. Hello and welcome to

the Film Review on BBC News. To take us through this week's

cinema releases is James King. First up, fast cars

and tight T-shirts. It is the return of Vin Diesel

in the Fast And The Furious 8. From the ridiculous to the sublime,

Park Chan-wook's glamorous And Broadbent and Rampling

re-live their teenage years in the pensieve

The Sense Of An Ending. So we are onto number eight

but still an impressive cast? Impressive cast, impressive

box office returns. This is such a huge franchise,

this one will be huge. The interesting thing

about the franchise They have to give audiences

what they want, which generally speaking are the big action scenes

which is the car chases. The big point of difference this

time round, is that Vin Diesel who plays Dominic Toretto,

the lead character has gone rogue. He is hooked up with a superb

criminal called Cipher played by Charlize Theron,

who is a hacker extroadinaire. This is what Vin Diesel does

for most of the movie Let me ask you something, Dom,

what is the best thing in life? It is the ten seconds between start

and finish when you're not thinking about anything,

no family, no obligations, I got to tell you, this

whole saving the world, Robin Hood nonsense you have been

doing recently, it is not you. Why live only a quarter of a mile

at a time when you can I'm just looking at the cast

list, Helen Mirren? Helen Mirren playing

Jason Statham's mum, I don't think Helen Mirren

ever thought it, judging It is a deliberately over

the top cockney sparrow Jason Statham provides

the best moment of the film. It is a scene where he is fighting

the bad guys on a plane, at the same time as trying

to save a baby in a carrying cot, so he has to punch people one second

and the next second It is like something

Jackie Chan would have done. It is an entertaining

scene in the movie. That is fine, that

is what people want. Is it doing anything that

different to the other ones? There is a formula and it is

sticking closely to it. I enjoyed number eight, it did

a good job but the problem I had is, it was occasionally treading water

and I wanted more surprises. Although this will be massive,

I hope the next one It is inspired by the book

Fingersmith by Sarah Waters. Now it is directed by Park Chan-wook

who is South Korea's most He has moved the action

from Victorian England A young girl from a criminal

background goes to work for the lady of the manor but she is actually

there to swindle her Unlike the book, it really relishes

the power of storytelling, in other words, it is the twists

and the turns, it is the horror, the comedy, the romance,

it throws everything into the mix and does it in a really

luxurious and lush way. I want to call it a romp but that

sounds throwaway and it is not. Although it is fun to watch

because there is so much going on, it is intelligent

and heartfelt and tender. It is a beautiful,

tender love story. Absolutely beautiful to watch,

highly recommended. I had read the book

so I knew the twists. The end of The Handmaiden, the movie

was different to Fingersmith. Even though I knew the twists,

it was still a joy to watch. Let's move on to

The Sense Of An Ending. Julian Barnes wrote the book

which won the Booker Prize. Now we have the movie

with Jim Broadbent. He plays Tony Webster, who is semi

retired and works in a camera shop. Out of the blue he gets

a letter saying the mother of his ex-girlfriend

from when he was a teenager has died and he has been left

something in her will. This gets him reminiscing

and thinking back to his teenage years when he was at

school and college and that In the present day, that

ex-girlfriend is played by Charlotte Rampling so here is Jim

and Charlotte getting I'm divorced, in case

you were wondering. I wasn't, but I am

sorry to hear that. In fact, she recently

accused me of having A shop, when I told her that it was

you who gave me my first Leica. The only criticism I have read

about The Sense Of An Ending It is certainly a story that deals

with quite subtle and nuanced arguments about memory and the past

and subjectivity, so in a way it can In a way, the ending had to be

slightly anti-climactic, because that is sort

of what it is about, but when you have performances

like Jim Broadbent, Charlotte Rampling who does stern

and mysterious better than anyone else, when you have that calibre

of performers in a movie, however subtle and nuanced and slow

the story is, and it is slow, I liked that it dealt

with quite abstract subjects. It takes awhile to get to know

the story if you have not read the book already,

so it takes awhile to work where the penny will drop but for me

that is part of the joy of the film that you have to work

a bit to get into it. And with Jim Broadbent

and Charlotte Rampling Jim Broadbent is more

of a curmudgeon in this movie He would be upset if I did not

mention it again this week! It does have an unwavering

commitment to unsettling It is set in a veterinary college

about a teenage girl who discovers her taste for flesh,

her taste for cannibalism, and it is The lighting, the music,

the performances, it has this sort of industrial brutalist backdrop

and surreal moments, and it is not often with horror

films you can say I just haven't seen anything like it before,

and it genuinely disturbed me. But Raw did that and did

it in a beautiful way. She starts as a vegetarian

but things happen at college which make her realise

she is perhaps not quite On the squeamish scale,

it sounds like something, It is squeamish because it

is beautifully done. Because of the elegance that

makes it more horrific. Sometimes if it is straight out

blood and guts slasher movie it is so in your face

and there is nothing to it. When it is more subtle,

that is actually creepier. This is Sully, the story

of the pilot who managed to land his plane on the Hudson

River. Although you expect it to be

about the crash landing in 2009, it is in there, you see that,

you experience that, but it also It shows you the investigation

which happened afterwards. He has to prove that he did

the right thing, that he is a hero, and of course Tom Hanks can do

the everyday down-to-earth reasonable hero probably

better than anyone else. So it is not perhaps the movie

you would expect but I think that makes it all the better,

because it does delve a lot deeper. He brings movies in

on budget and on time. He does the job intelligently and

you see all of that in this movie. That is it for this week,

thanks for watching. Hello, this is Breakfast

with Rachel Burden and Roger Coming up before seven Philip

will have the weather. But first, a summary of this

morning's main news. An attempt by North Korea to launch

a test missile has failed, a day after it issued

a nuclear warning to the US. American officials believe it

exploded within seconds of take off. The US Vice-President Mike Pence

will arrive in South Korea later this morning for talks

on the North's nuclear ambitions. It comes just hours after a massive

military parade was held Theresa May has used her first

Easter message as Prime Minister to say the UK is coming together

after the Brexit vote. The PM said opportunities

would emerge from Britain's decision to leave the European Union thanks

to the country's shared The Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn

used his Easter message to urge people not to stand by in the face

of society's problems. The Leader of the Opposition said

both at home and abroad. Mr Corbyn called for action

on homelessness, a crisis in the NHS The evacuation of Syrian residents

from towns under siege has resumed, after dozens were killed

in a suicide car bomb yesterday The attack happened at a check point

where thousands of civilians were waiting on buses

to be moved to safety. The people of Turkey have begun

voting in a referendum that could see sweeping new powers given

to President Erdogan. If approved, the role

of Prime Minister would be scrapped. Mr Erdogan argues the changes

would provide stability, but his opponents fear

they would lead to a more More than 5,000 people have been

rescued from boats off the Libyan An Italian woman, thought to have

been the oldest person in the world, Emma Morano was the last verified

person to be born in the 19th century, and worked

until she was 75. She said her secret to longevity

was eating raw eggs every day - In that case, I'm in trouble. I do

not like raw eggs. She walked to 75 years and yet she has still retired

for 42. That is incredible. Harry came, he is breaking records, isn't

he? Another 20 goal season. Fantastic for him and great for

Tottenham to have him back. His back straightaway and scoring goals and

he could be pivotal for them. We will see if they can take Chelsea

We will see if they can take Chelsea right down to the wire.

Tottenham have moved to within four points of the top

of the Premier League after a comfortable victory over

Manchester City are up to third; and after being involved

in controversy off the field, Ross Barkley helped Everton move

So much of sport is about belief. And on this kind of form, you might

believe that the Spurs were capable of almost anything. A fantastic

period in our club, a fantastic moment. The belief in the way that

we play is fantastic. Now we just wait, make sure it is done. The

points are important for us. Well, that dream is to catch Chelsea at

the top. A 4-0 win against Bournemouth reducing the gap to four

points. Chelsea should be concerned because time are coming for you.

Behind them, Manchester City have now reached a third. The captain is

back from injury and inspiring them to a 3-0 win at Southampton. At the

other end of the table, any end remaining belief is beginning to

fade. Sunderland managed a draw against West Ham. In truth, they

probably needed more. Swansea, they certainly did, defeated by this goal

they remain in some trouble as do Hull City. They lost 3-1 at Stoke

thanks to a very special goal. Oh, Briand! What an outstanding goal!

Crystal Palace improved their hopes of survival, coming back from 2-0

down to draw a against Leicester. And after a troubled week for a

sparkly he managed to focus his mind back onto football matters. His

deflected shot helping Everton two or 3-1 win against Burnley. They now

go above Manchester United who play Chelsea this afternoon.

So today sees Liverpool take on West Brom, and then Chelsea

will try and move seven points clear at the top of the table

They are a good team, strong physically and technically and for

this reason we must pay them good attention because United also want

to play to find a place for the next Champions League and to arrive in

the best form on the table. And they have the possibility to do this.

They have a certain style of play, they stick to it, they do it very

well, they do it very well. Not every team defence with 11 players,

they defend with 11 players and not every team is so objective in their

counter-attacks. They are very objective in their counter-attacks.

And they have individual players out of the context of the game who can

also resolve problems. So they are very strong team.

Bahrain Grand Prix, but it isn't Lewis Hamilton.

His new team-mate this season, Valtteri Bottas, snatched the front

spot by just two hundredths of a second in qualifying.

It's the first pole of the Finn's career.

Hamilton will start from second on the grid,

with Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel third.

I am really happy. It is the first pole position in my career. My first

now in Formula 1. It took a few races but I got it and hopefully it

is the first of many. Leicester Tigers have

strengthened their hold on fourth place in rugby union's Premiership

with a bonus point win over England scrum half Ben Youngs scored

the crucial fourth try ten minutes from time to ensure his side ran out

emphatic winners by 30 Leicester are in pole position now

to secure the last playoff spot after nearest rivals Bath

were beaten at Worcester. Munster narrowly beat Ulster 22-20

to guarantee their place Dave O'Callaghan scored

the decisive try. Ulster can still make the top

four with only two games There were also wins for Cardiff,

Scarlets and Leinster. Fergal O'Brien was thrashed in his

opening match in at the world Snooker championship in Sheffield.

The world number one threatened a will whitewash as he wrapped up

victory ten friends- two. He will play either Ryan Day or a Chinese

player in the next round. Sullivan is finding things a little more

difficult in his first round match. He was 5-1 up at one point with

this, the first century break of this year's tournament, but the

qualifier has fought back and is now only one frame behind. You can

follow that match across the BBC. Now, which sportsmen are the

bravest? Car drivers, someone in extreme sports? But you would never

think of putting golfers along the sort of risks. This may change your

mind. This alligator is what was lying in wait for Ian Poulter after

his shot at the IBC heritage in South Carolina. He had to take a

penalty drop is ball going in the water and was worried that the

alligator may snatch his club. His caddie scared the reptile away. He

double bogeyed the whole, unsurprisingly, and ended up just

three shots away from lead. -- hole. That is brilliant. What a brilliant

golfing excuse. Thank you very much indeed. We will stay with the

sporting theme for the next couple of minutes. Britain will be aiming

to add to its medal tally on the final day of the track cycling World

Championships today in Hong Kong. A fourth medal was secured yesterday

in the women's medicine. The second of the games and she will compete in

today's points race. We will talk to a double Olympic gold-medallist now.

You have been following the action, thank you very much for coming in.

You are a bright and early because begin soon and you will cover it for

the BBC. Have we done as well as expected? A relatively inexperienced

squad. A mix of youth and experience so we have had four medal with and

so far, three have come from our Perry in Rio, the they performed

really well, and has another chance today. She already has two silvers

this week and I know she wants gold. Some may be disappointed but at this

stage of the Olympic cycle we aim to peak for the Olympics once every

four and yous and now is the time to take your foot off the gas a little

bit. If that means easing back and focusing on Tokyo than that seems to

have worked for us for the past three Olympic Games and hopefully it

will happen again. The silver in the Madison was significant yesterday.

The first time the women had competed in that event. What if the

Madison? Similar to the points raised in that you have springs

every ten laps and the first four over the line gets points. The

difference is you raise in a team of two so it is kind of like a relay.

You switch teammates by doing a handspring to bring your teammate in

so what is this reason, one person at the top of the track recovering.

You need to watch it to understand. It is a good spectacle and it is

good that we now finally have the women's version in the World

Championship. It is taken far too long in my opinion but thankfully

they have now got parity between men and women at the World

Championships. Your teammate from Rio, Laura Kenney, is not racing in

this but she gave an interview today said and said that she will target

Tokyo. Having had a baby, that is a big ask, isn't it? I guess if anyone

could do it it would beat her. It is a big ask but we had a multiple

Paralympic champion who made an awesome comeback and received three

gold medals in Rio. Laurie could take inspiration from Sarah... Yes,

that is us there. Jessica there as well. She'll won a silver in Rio. A

few women who have shown it is possible. It will obviously be a

challenge but Laura is a great challenge and I sure she will rise

to that. We talk about some of the male cyclists? Reiner wins missed

out on a medal in the spread that he looks like he has potential? He went

to Rio as a reserve rider, part of the squad but did not race. People

talk about really say that every single rider medal but there were

actually riders out there who were reserves at the end of the day and I

always thought Ryan had a huge future ahead of him. Next season, he

has been talked up a lot and he surprised himself yesterday reaching

the final of the spring. In Rio he finished fourth, the worst place to

finish, it is a good week for them in general but a tough time overall

for British cycling. All sorts of allegations being thrown at it.

Doping allegations are still hanging in the air and, of course,

investigation into the culture surrounding British cycling and

early reports have come out and suggested that there is a culture of

fear. Does any of that ring true to you? Using changes need to be made?

I think the fact that people are coming out with accusations shows

that it is not perfect and changes need to be made and we should strive

for perfection. We, well, I am retired, but I think British cycling

are being proactive. For me, the fear I had as an athlete was fear of

me getting ill or injured or not being good enough. I would not say I

feared the staff in that way but everybody had different experiences

and sexism has also been a big issue that has come out but I genuinely

feel that my medal was worth just as much of my male counterparts. They

are funded by UK sports to win medals at the litigation is and I do

not think UK sports say men's medals, they say medals. My medals

were worth just as much as those of the men. Did you experienced sexism

that? As a cyclist internationally, yes, but sport internationally,

still, it is hugely sexist. What kind of things? There is no minimum

wage for road riders in cycling. The track finally has a quality and

events. When I started cycling, in Beijing in 2008, there were seven

events in the Olympics were men and sorry for women which... How was

that possible in 2008? That was ridiculous. That was not the fault

of British cycling. Despite that, they were still our talent spotting.

I was spotted at school, I went to an all women school, they came to my

schooling carried out these standardised tests and they were

looking to develop women despite... The big thing for me, the big thing

to me was Olympic events. Seven for men, three for women, how could that

be? Do you miss it? I think I will always miss it a little bit. I have

been enjoying watching this week in supporting my teammates but my body

has worked very very hard for ten years and I have achieved everything

I possibly could. We still make you wake up early and be on TV,

nonetheless. You can watch coverage of the championships from seven

o'clock this morning on the BBC website. BBC Two has a highlights

programme. You can watch coverage of the World

Track Cycling Championships Here's Philip with a look

at this morning's weather. The weather is not really in today.

You are still making me get up in the morning. Cloudier, certainly,

today. Some rain around as well for some of you and some of you already

experiencing the rain, especially across Northern Ireland and the

western side of Scotland. It is this area of cloud. It doesn't look that

scary that it will put a dampener on some today, that's for sure.

Starting life across the north-western quarter of the British

Isles. It will take a dive down and across the British Isles today. If

you are in the flight path right through the heart of the British

Isles, there is a fair chance you will see some rain. Not everybody

will see it. The far north of Scotland is clear with a scattering

of showers. The rain won't be around the central bait -- central belt all

day. Nor Northern Ireland. It is moving, as I suggested. It is in

East Anglia this morning. The south-western quarter, the southern

parts, you will see some rain. More clout than you saw yesterday. There

goes that area of cloud, gradually through the afternoon and on into

the evening, working its way. If you need rain as some of the gardens in

the south do, it probably won't top you up. It's not the most potent of

whether features. Come Easter Monday, the winds are no longer west

and are more north. That will drag some of the cold air that is already

sitting across Shetland ever further south across the British Isles. It

will take its time but eventually will seek its way south. Maybe

behind that little band there of showers. A day of sunny spells and

showers may be across the British Isles and the clearer skies tucking

in behind the weather feature. Clearer skies by day, lovely.

Clearer skies by night, gardeners, look at this. Widespread frost. That

is one of the themes of the forthcoming week. Some hard frost

across all parts of the British Isles that there will be some sunny

spells as well. A bit of a mixed picture, thank you, Phil.

The news coming up in a few moments here on Breakfast.

We are now more surveilled than we have ever been.

Authorities are gathering data on its citizens.

It would be all too easy to confuse the real world

Mr Marks, my mandate of the District of Columbia Pre-Crime Division.

I'm placing you under arrest for the future murder

of Sarah Marks and Donald Dubin, that was due to take

place today, April 22, at 0800 hrs and four minutes.

In the movie Minority Report, the Pre-crimes Unit race to arrest

would-be offenders before they have a chance to

Now, they use psychics but it turns out, something similar

In Chicago, where the violent crime rate has exploded,

law enforcement has been forced to try out unconventional

Authorities are attempting to combine various technologies

in an effort to predict where and when violent

Marc Cieslak went to Chicago to find out more.

Violent crime in Chicago has seen a dramatic increase.

RADIO: A 15-year-old male, shot in the neck.

We need a wagon with a body bag also.

The drug industry is what helps them fuel the violence,

by being able to pay for their activity.

In 2016, 726 murders were committed in the city, a 19-year high.

That's more than the number of murders committed in New York

Chicago is a city most famously known as the Windy City.

More recently, it has earned a nickname that few residents

That's because gun crime is so extreme in some

neighbourhoods, they are comparing them to war zones.

The issue has received increasingly negative attention in the US,

with President Trump tweeting, "If Chicago doesn't fix

the horrible carnage going on, I will send in the Feds".

The response from Chicago's Police Department is a new initiative,

driven by technology, which aims to predict where crimes

The University of Chicago's Urban Labs are assisting the police

in its efforts to integrate this technology into its operations.

We have a lot of expertise in analysing crime patterns

and trends in the city, from years of working with data

And so we are leveraging that expertise to really help

the Police Department think about where it should be

allocating its resources to be most effective.

So what kind of data or information is it that the police are providing

We have a number of datasets that we work with from them,

including data on crime patterns, actual crime incidents,

A number of different methods of analysis are used,

including machine learning and predictive analytics.

This is software which takes large volumes of data and tries

These trends can then help predict where a crime might occur next.

This is a heat map of homicides in District 7.

And we are looking at this year over year, from 2011 to 2016.

And basically, what you see on the map is the darker the red,

the more concentrated homicides were in a given area.

What sort of factors are you finding are influencing crime in these

Yeah, so, most of the prediction that we're doing is space-based.

So, yeah, it's locations that are nearby that

are high-risk locations, like a 24-hour liquor

store, a gas station, where people tend to congregate.

The weather seems to be playing a very big role in the data.

You know, we've just had a beautiful weekend and we just had

significantly worse amount of shootings than we had

The police are using these predictive tools to inform

the deployment of officers and resources to areas

where they think crimes are likely to occur.

Neighbourhoods in Chicago's West and South Side are some

It is these neighbourhoods which have been chosen to test

We are just driving through Chicago's South Side now.

Now, this is one of the areas which has experienced the highest

incidence of violent crime, mainly gun and drug related.

To see how all of this different kit works,

I'm on my way to a police station which acts as a command

centre, bringing all of the technologies together.

Heading up the project is Deputy Chief Jonathan Lewen

So this is our Strategic Decision Support Center.

So this is where you bring all of your different

This is the first time that this level of technology

integration has been done, not only here, I think,

So what can we see on the screens we have got around us?

So, all around us are various sensor inputs, cameras, gunshot detection.

The screen behind you is something called Hunch Lab,

which is a geographic prediction tool that brings a lot of data

into a model to predict risk for future violence.

So what you are seeing on these little boxes here are areas

where the model is recommending that we deploy resources

and implement strategies to fight some of the violence

And then it is telling us that we should deploy resources,

visit businesses, do foot patrol, various tactics.

Shot Spotter just very quickly triangulates possible gunshot events

using acoustic sensors that are located throughout the district,

and it shows the officer exactly where, accurate to within 25 yards,

And you can actually play the audio of the gunshot event,

So here's an event with nine rounds fired.

And in this case, you can see the location is actually

the back yard of a house, so that's going to be very accurate.

So this is the decision support system, and this is where everything

It will soon be available in the hands of officers on smartphones.

So in this case, we are looking at a 911 call of a robbery that just

There are four cameras within a 300 foot radius of that call.

Here is the real-time video from those cameras.

These guys here, these are possible suspects, or...

These are people that might possibly be involved?

How do we know that this is identifying the right people?

We find when we test and measure them, that the model's

recommendations, because we can backdate it, we can look

at a known outcome period and see how it performs.

And we know that it's picking the right people because we know

But some of this technology is proving to be controversial,

It's called the Strategic Subjects List.

and locations, this list is concerned with predicting crimes

Just like Hunch Lab is a place-based risk model, this is a person-based

risk model that is looking at variables such as arrest

activity, so have you been arrested for a gun offence in the past?

So it's using some crime victim data.

Is your trend line in criminal activity increasing or decreasing?

What was your age at the time you were last arrested?

Nothing about race, nothing about gender,

It is using objective measures to determine risk

It's basically telling us that this person is 500 times more likely

than a member of the general population to be involved

in a shooting, either as a victim or an offender.

So in here, we can see his affiliations, his gang affiliations.

We can see also his, is this his arrest record

You can see that he has a weapons arrest.

He was arrested here for aggravated battery.

So here's a first-degree murder charge.

Here's another arrest, this is a narcotics arrest.

So the score estimates how much more likely an individual is to be

the victim or the perpetrator of a violent crime.

The police use this score to inform what they call

This is not designed to be a punitive tool.

This is used to drive what we call a custom notification process,

which is literally a site visit to this subject, to say,

"You've come to our attention for these reasons.

We want to get you out of the cycle of violence.

We can offer you the following social services".

Maybe if they have children at home, it would be childcare services.

"But also, if you don't leave the cycle of violence

and you keep committing crimes, you're going to be subject

to enhanced criminal penalties", because you're a repeat gun

And can you see why, if police officers go and visit

somebody out of the blue, it might seem like they are being

Everybody who has a risk score has committed a crime in the past.

Otherwise they wouldn't even be in the model.

Groups like the American Civil Liberties Union, though, disagree.

They aren't happy about the use of some of these technologies.

The police showed us a database of people who have been involved

in violent crime in the past, and an algorithm which suggests

if and when they might again be involved in a violent crime.

Oftentimes in large numbers, along with a number

But what they won't say is what social services are offering.

Is it just them or is it their entire family?

What is the success rate once that occurs?

The fact is, is that most of the people who are charged for...

You know, if you take two people who are arrested

for a simple drug possession, if one is white and one

is African-American, the African-American is far more

likely to be charged, maybe even convicted.

We have seen that there has been, you know, in essence,

a "once convicted, always guilty" sort of theme that

While there might be disagreements about the use of this technology,

everybody I spoke to had similar ideas about an ultimate

solution to tackling violent crime in Chicago.

It's got to be every, everybody that's a stakeholder

in this coming together to solve the problem.

What is really needed across this city is a commitment

I think a lot of it has to do with preventing, with healing,

and creating a space where individuals can civically

Hello, this is Breakfast, with Rachel Burden and Roger

A North Korean missile test fails as it explodes just

The test took place just a day after a huge military show

of strength in the capital Pyongyang.

In the next few hours the US Vice-President Mike Pence

will arrive in South Korea for talks about the nuclear threat

Good morning, it's Sunday 16th April.

There is a sense that people are coming together and uniting

behind the opportunities that lie ahead.

Theresa May urges unity over Brexit as she delivers her Easter message.

The world's oldest woman dies at the age of 117.

Emma Morano put her long life down to genetics and her diet of eggs.

In sport, Tottenham make it seven Premier League wins in a row to keep

up the pressure on table-topping Chelsea.

And: from the countryside to the classroom.

We'll be looking at the lamb cams helping to teach children in inner

A very good morning to you and happy Easter. This does not look

promising. It is already reining in western Scotland and Northern

Ireland. As it headed your way? We will have the details in a few

minutes. An attempt by North Korea to launch

a test missile has failed, a day after it issued

a nuclear warning to the US. American officials believe

a land-based ballistic missile exploded within seconds of take off,

close to the east coast The test, which is in violation

of UN resolutions, came just hours after a massive military parade

was held in Pyongyang US Vice-President Mike Pence

will arrive in the South Korean capital this morning for talks

on the North's nuclear ambitions. Our US correspondent

Laura Bicker has more. These naval warships

are within striking distance of the North

Korean capital. The message - the US

is ready to act if provoked. North Korea is a problem

and the problem North Korea has to

change its behaviour. Donald Trump said he received

assurances that they would help put an end to the nuclear ambitions

of North Korea and believe that is why he has

dispatched warships. China is already applying pressure

at its border and placed a ban If President Trump is

weighing his options, The US could also push for more UN

sanctions but critics believe that punishes

the people of North Korea, The Pentagon has

denied any suggestion But Donald Trump's actions in Syria

prove he is a president prepared to take action quickly

and without warning. US troops in Afghanistan

are advancing after the dropping of a massive bunker-buster bomb

known The display of firepower

from the world's strongest military that just might make

Kim Jong-un think twice Meanwhile, the vice president,

Mike Pence is on his way to South Korea to reassure

Asian allies and offer them an ironclad commitment

to come to their defence. His message is that the US will do

whatever is necessary to keep Our Seoul correspondent,

Steve Evans, joins us from Seoul. Steve, what has been the reaction

there to this latest attempt by North Korea to test

launch a missile? That great show of force of rows and

rows of missiles less than 24 hours ago is not as powerful as it may

seem on your screen. North Korea frequently tests missiles and more

often than not they fail. So there is the possibility of a nuclear test

coming up now. If you look at the aerial pictures of the north of the

country, the mountainous region where they test these things, it is

prepared for an sixth test. But this failed missile test shows that they

are not yet that. They do not yet have the fearsome Arsenal which the

president claims they have. They are moving towards that direction, no

doubt about it, but they are not yet they are.

We'll be speaking to former Foreign Secretary Sir Malcolm Rifkind

about the situation in North Korea in just a few minutes' time.

Theresa May has used her first Easter message as Prime Minister

to say the UK is coming together after the Brexit vote.

The PM said opportunities would emerge from Britain's decision

to leave the European Union thanks to the country's shared

Let us come together as a nation, confident in our values and united

in our commitment to the obligations that we have towards one another.

Let us work together to build that brighter future that we want

And together, build a stronger, fairer Britain that truly does

The Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn used his Easter message to urge

people not to stand by in the face of society's problems.

The Leader of the Opposition said Easter should be a time to reflect

on the current challenges, both at home and abroad.

It would be easy to retreat into our private lives

because of challenges that seem overwhelming,

allow ourselves to be divided and blame

We need to respond to these problems through action and support

for social justice, peace and reconciliation.

The evacuation of Syrian residents from towns under siege has resumed,

after dozens were killed in a suicide car bomb yesterday

The attack hit a convoy of buses at a check point where thousands

of civilians were waiting to be moved to safety.

Let's speak now to our Middle East correspondent Lina Sinjab who joins

Good morning and thank you for joining us. This attack yesterday

just underlined the terrible risks and the dangers faced by people in

these towns in Syria. Well, yes, indeed, especially since the attack

took place where civilians were evacuated. It was not targeting

only, you know, fighters on either side. What we hear from the Syrian

Observatory for human rights and some activists who were at the scene

was that a bus loaded with food was distributing food to children, at

then exploded and, you know, caused a lot of casualties. So far we have

no information about who is responsible behind this but there

are? Is raised on how this bath with food managed to get into the area

when it is sealed with security from both sides. -- it raises issues

about how this bath with food managed to get into the area.

In the past few hours people in Turkey have begun voting

in a referendum which could significantly increase the powers

If approved, the role of Prime Minister would be scrapped,

More than 5,000 people have been rescued from boats off the Libyan

The Italian coastguard says good spring weather has led to more

migrants attempting the perilous crossing to Europe.

An Italian woman - who was thought to be the oldest

person in the world - has died at the age of 117.

Emma Morano from northern Italy was the last person verified to have

Here she is celebrating her 117th birthday in November last year

surrounded by family and friends at her home in northern Italy.

Asked how she felt on reaching 117, she said she felt well.

Born in 1899, Emma Morano's life spanned three centuries.

The eldest of eight children, she outlived all of her younger

She survived an abusive marriage, the loss of her only son,

two world wars, and more than 90 Italian governments.

And she worked in a factory until she was 65.

Emma Morano thought it was probably her diet.

TRANSLATION: I eat two eggs a day, and that's it.

I don't eat much because I have no teeth.

Always eating the same things, always at the same time of day.

Her doctor of 27 years thought there were other reasons too

TRANSLATION: The first factor is genetics.

It is her own condition, a natural phenomenon,

Her personality would be fundamental as well.

The mayor of the small city in northern Italy where she lived

said she had an extraordinary life, and she will always be remembered

What an amazing life she must have lived. What changes she must have

seen over that lifetime. I guess, one of the last Victorians, really,

at that age. And a warning, if you are on a diet over Easter than

today's the day that you will get back on to whatever you not been

doing this may not help you. A Thomas the Tank Engine train made

entirely of chocolate. Oh, yes. It arrived at King's Cross station in

London to mark the Easter weekend. It is made of over 100 kilograms of

white, dark and milk at Belgian chocolate. It stands over six feet

tall. If you forgot to purchase any Easter eggs at this morning, just

head over there and grab a bite. We will have a quick look at the front

pages. We are hoping to speak to the former Foreign Secretary shortly

where we will talk to him about events in North Korea that we have

been discussing this morning. That failed nuclear, failed missile test

overnight. The Telegraph talks about that. Laura Kenney has given an

interview in which she says she hopes to race at the Olympics in

2020 and there is another lovely story buried away down here at the

bottom of the page about builders who are doing is a work in a church,

lifted up some flag stones and found a hidden crypt in which they

discovered the remains of five old archbishops of Canterbury. Builders

find all sorts of weird and unusual stuff. Even our little humble home.

So if your builder has never unearthed something unexpected, let

us know. Sometimes even old newspapers, they are fascinating.

Let us know if your builder has ever found anything. North Korea

dominates most of the front pages this morning. The Sunday Times this

morning talks about America being ready to strike at the heart of

North Korea's nuclear sites. They think they can neutralise them then

nuclear programme if there is a pre-emptive attack but many people

are suggesting that those are really... Not just empty threats by

words at the moment. Much concern as well the words will become action.

The Observer has a picture here of Ross Barclay, and you will know this

story from yesterday of Everton banning the Sun newspaper after a

column this week that received a lot of coverage over the last 24 hours.

The main story, about free schools helping rich regions. Resources go

to the wealthy south. North Korea also on the front page of the mail

but I will take you inside the mail this morning because this is a story

that many of you will have seen last night on Britain has got talent. The

missing persons choir featured on the programme last night, made up of

people who have friends or relatives who have gone missing. It was very

emotional to watch... It was. A briefing for them to do to stand up

in Singapore for but I think as much of anything at all so I live the

cases of these individuals but also in general terms, the kind of play

but families in the situation space. Well done to them. It is that a

minutes past seven. People in Turkey have begun to vote in a referendum

which could significantly increase the powers of their president. If

approved, the role of Prime Minister will be scrapped as our

correspondent explains. A divisive campaign has ended

and Turkey now faces the biggest political choice

in its modern history. Both sides made a frantic

push to the end. Voter turnout will be

decisive in the outcome. The yes side believes

a stronger presidency, scrapping the post of

Prime Minister, will make If they win, the President

will receive enhanced powers to appoint ministers,

choose judges, issue degrees A human chain by the no side who say

the reforms would remove parliamentary checks and balances,

and that an authoritarian President Erdogan has destroyed what was left

of Turkish democracy. It has been a traumatic few months

in Turkey with an attempted coup and repeated terror

attacks that have killed The government says

a stronger leader could face Critics argue that the President

has failed to keep And so a crucial country

at the geopolitical crossroads is deciding

its future path. The outcome will be felt

far beyond the borders. You're watching

Breakfast from BBC News. North Korea has tried and failed to

launch a test missile the day after a massive parade to show its

military's strength. Theresa May has urged the people to unite as Britain

prepares to leave the European Union.

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

That is an accurate picture of what is coming up in our ago when you

caught me out with a lovely picture which was yesterday. Sorry. I've

made it far more simple. The message of the day is much cloudier than of

late. Some rain on the way. I'm sure there will be some of you that will

be very glad to hear that. I was walking around the south-east couple

of days ago and there were definite cracks in the fields so some of the

farmers, I suspect, will be welcoming this incursion of Atlantic

air. The southern weather front is starting life of the northern

Ireland where it is already over parts of western Scotland. As we get

through the day towards lunchtime, the rain looks gradually -- the rain

will gradually bypass at the northern half of Scotland. Some

sunshine around. The air is decidedly cold and we will come back

to that in just a second. The rain at its heaviest in the western

slopes of the Pennines and the top end of Wales and maybe the North

Midlands. Getting up to around ten millimetres. A lot of deluge.

Earlier trip drive over the southern parts of Wales and down into the

southern parts of England. Eventually we will push the rain

over towards the eastern side of England shall stop it clears away

from Northern Ireland and clears out of Wales. Perhaps for your plans a

bit too late in the day. Underneath the rain, it will be cool. Seven or

nine. Even colder come Monday as the air starts flowing not from the West

and the Atlantic but from the north. The down and across the British

Isles. The colder that is already in place across Shetland, it won't get

much warmer as we get on through Monday. The showers will be tumbling

down on the northerly breeze. The best of the sunshine across northern

Scotland but the coolest of the air sitting there as well. Here is the

thing. The first signs of some really cold nights to come will be

therein the heart of Scotland. They are. Minus five degrees or so and

that prospect tumbles its way ever further south in the first part of

the forthcoming week. Frosty nights to come but some dry weather. It is

pretty nippy out there at the moment and I have been resisting putting my

heating back on but last night. I'm afraid I succumbed. The calm,

succumb. There is an Easter message for you. Just so come. Cave in.

Someone tweeted with me. When will talking about the old lady in Italy

who just passed away. This man said she wasn't a Victorian beakers... --

because. She might have been visiting the UK at the time. It is

that visiting the UK at the time. It is

Easter Sunday. It's Easter Sunday and how better

to enjoy the bank holiday than with a nice walk

in the great outdoors? But thousands of children

across the UK have limited access So in a effort to bring

the countryside into the classroom, one farm in Kent has

enlisted the help of it's Breakfast's Holly Hamilton has

been to take a look. It had typical spring day on this

farm in Kent but it's not just the farm are keeping a close eye on the

animals. These are the stars of Lam Kam. Streamed live online straight

from the farm and into the classroom -- Lamb Cam. It can tell me what the

job of a sheep is. -- who can tell me. These children have been

monitoring the shed for the last two weeks and even monitoring some live

births. It's really exciting because we don't go to farms that much. The

land just came out of the ewe. Have you seen anything like that before?

When it is on the screen, you don't need to smell all the dung. Skill

are having to come up with alternative ways of educating

Georgian about rural living. It is a great chance to see what they do in

the farm. -- children. Lucky for us, we have had a roof garden that was

built quite recently so we have two raised beds at its given to children

and opportunity to plant the seeds and nurture the plant is ready to

eat. Lamb Cam is the brainchild of the country trust. A charity that

helps bring working countryside to disadvantaged schoolchildren all

year round. With it about 18,000 children every year out of the city

and on to the countryside and real farms but we know that that was just

scratching the surface so we know that this camera is to bring farms

to millions of children and giving them a window into the life of the

real working farm and making a connection with the farmers who work

so hard to produce food with us and be able to share experiences that

they wouldn't see in their daily life. Some children wouldn't have

seen a land being born which is a really wonderful thing. Soon the

season will be drawn to a close but that won't be the end of Lamb Cam.

Instead it will be moved to a new location the children will still be

watching. Brilliant. We just mentioned very

briefly about the palace during renovations that have uncovered

things. This is one from Earl Saint and newspaper from the fireplace

dated 1871. Although the house was actually built in 1900 and it is a

terrific one here, a pair of dentures. Here we go, yes, not sure

what the Navy 's but by builder once found an old power of dentures in

one of our wharves. The slatwall is. Tilly found a priest hole call --

gone wrong. You're watching

Breakfast from BBC News. Time now for a look

at the newspapers. Broadcaster Janice Long

is here to tell us Good to see you. You started in the

mail, lots of, well, I think all the papers have this story today that it

is about the fate of the world hanging on these two mavericks.

Piggot everybody thinking at the moment. You wake up and turn on the

news and you are thinking what on earth is happened. --I think it's

what everybody is thinking. It is lined with Trump and Kim Jong-un. "

Are we on the breadth of an apocalypse?" I think that's what

everybody thinking. He looks back to 1862. The Cuban crisis. He said at

that point he felt the cool heads prevailed were as here, you have

these two people who are unpredictable and impulse it. It's a

game of chess being played that you don't actually really know what's

going to happen. You don't know if anybody is going to tilt the

chessboard over rate any moment. That's what everybody is worried

about. Interestingly, it grew body applauded the decisive action that

Donald Trump took in Syria, for example. North Korea and entirely

different game, perhaps. It's interesting web in China actually

becomes the grown up in the room. Exactly. Small mistakes can have

great ramifications globally and that's what people are worried

about. You mentioned the Cuban missile crisis but the whole world

watched as those ships steams towards Cooper but now with Twitter

and everything else, stuffy flying around all the time -- tuber --

Cuba. This is incredibly sad. Payday loans. People really rely on them.

Wages have been lagging. 14% since the pay freeze in 2011. People are

turning up at food banks because they can't afford to exist. We all

held on great regard that they're simply not earning the money to live

and execs properly. -- exist. They are looking at possible industrial

action. This is in the Times. Gnomes have shot up -- the sale of gnomes.

It polarises people. You have known? At Port my dad won recently. --I

bought. There are all kinds of gnomes these days. A couple of guys

doing selfies. You have no minor tablet who is an iron Dome. They

can't work out while people are getting excited about gnomes again

-- gnome. There was a movie called Gnome Alone. George Harrison

apparently is a huge name of fans. -- gnome fans. People have whole

ranges of gnomes. With big head. Very flamboyant suit. Any bridal

gnomes out there? Sherlock Gnomes. Leigh I was shocked that the average

cost of a wedding dress is ?32,000. No! The high street is saying that

it doesn't, it has their own ranges and bringing the price back down.

People are stopping going for the fancy stationery and looking to make

their own and bring the cost down. People can be really creative these

days when it comes to weddings. My mother made my wedding dress and I

certainly didn't have a posh one. You can also get them from Oxfam who

has an amazing range. The jumpsuit and the pantsuit and tailoring is on

the rise. You notice how I'm just silently sitting he was you talk

wedding dresses. Janice, wonderful. Thank you. We will have more from

you in an hour. We have also been talking about Easter decorations

this morning and that's because a lot of people have been saying that

Easter has become increasingly like Christmas. If you go out to the

shops, you will see decorations, Easter lights, East it if the bags.

You into the Easter decorations? I heard someone ask have you put your

Easter tree up? Has this come from America? For a while, people might

have had branches of spring trees that they decorated that it's now

become a thing. A number of people have made the point that the whole

point of Easter is the story of the crucifixion, the resurrection... It

seems to have disappeared. Let's have a look at some of your

pictures. Julia Harrison sent one in. This is Julia's branch. I think

that's really pretty. It is not new to Julia, she says it is been

happening for as long as she can remember. Let's see this from Sue

Gray. She sent a picture of her tree. She says she loves Easter and

has always decorated. And Gibbs prepares -- prefers to paint cakes.

He is jump she painted lassi. They are very nice. You also have to have

an awful lot of patients. Sandro Pampling has sent a tweet saying her

mother has had an easy trip for years. It has eggs on it that no
