blooms be big this weekend, and will they survive the chill it? The | :01:53. | :01:55. | |
Good morning. forecast details coming up. | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
A policeman's been shot dead in Paris in a suspected terror attack. | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
The gunman fired at a bus carrying officers on the Champs Elysees, | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
Two other police officers were in the french capital. | :02:08. | :02:18. | |
Two other police officers were injured. | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
This report on how the attack unfolded is from our Europe | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
You have to stay back, please. The area is dangerous because of | :02:26. | :02:40. | |
gunshots. In the minutes after the attack the police in Paris took | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
every movement as a threat. At this stage officers didn't know if any | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
other gunmen might still be at large. The shooting happened right | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
in the centre of the city. As Parisians and tourists were heading | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
out to dinner. TRANSLATION: I was walking on the pavement. There was a | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
bus full of police. The man parked just in front of the bus and then he | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
got out a Kalashnikov and he shot six times. I thought it was | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
fireworks. Then he went and hid behind a lorry. TRANSLATION: We were | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
moving towards a car and then I heard two or three shots but I | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
didn't realise they were shots to start with and then there was panic | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
all around. Everyone started running down the Champs-Elysee. Just by | :03:23. | :03:28. | |
instinct. I just ran. The shone Selesele was already full of police | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
officers guarding against an attack on civilians but it seems this | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
shooting targeted officers themselves -- Champs-Elysee. Late | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
into the night here the police are still stopping people from | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
approaching the scene of the attack just a block or so away in the | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
Champs-Elysee. And everyone around here wants to know exactly what | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
happened. The police want to make sure that all nearby streets are now | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
safe. Officers kept their handguns drawn. They searched everyone coming | :03:58. | :04:04. | |
out of a nearby building. This country will now investigate the | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
shooting and make sure that its plans for Sunday's presidential | :04:10. | :04:10. | |
Those were the images from last election are in place. | :04:11. | :04:19. | |
Those were the images from last night and this is the scene at | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
6:04am here, 7:04am there. Overnight, police have been | :04:24. | :04:29. | |
searching the home believed to belong to the gunman | :04:30. | :04:31. | |
in the eastern suburbs of Paris. They are also investigating if he | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
acted alone or had any accomplices. Last night's shooting comes just | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
days before polls open in the first round of the country's closely | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
watched Presidential The candidates were all quick | :04:45. | :04:46. | |
to condemn the attack, As news broke of another | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
terror attack in France, all 11 candidates standing | :04:50. | :04:58. | |

candidates have ended their campaigns early. Centre-right | :05:14. | :05:16. | |
Francois Fillon paid tribute to security forces. TRANSLATION: | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
Concerning what happened tonight I want to first and foremost save the | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
nation stands with the police. We are faced with an act we cannot | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
totally make sense of but sadly it seems to resemble an act of terror. | :05:30. | :05:35. | |

TRANSLATION: Tonight, while we have been talking, | :05:59. | :06:00. | |
we know that at least one police officer has been killed. | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
This threat is incalculable and is going to be a part | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
France has been in a state of for years to come. | :06:07. | :06:15. | |
France has been in a state of emergency since a string of jihadist | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
terra attacks that began in 2015 and have killed over 230 people. The | :06:20. | :06:27. | |
nation is once again on high alert. 50,000 members of the security | :06:28. | :06:29. | |
forces have been deployed We'll be speaking to a journalist | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
in Paris in around 20 minutes' time. Plans to significantly increase | :06:33. | :06:39. | |
the legal fees payable after death have been scrapped by | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
the Ministry of Justice. Critics of the proposed changes | :06:44. | :06:45. | |
claimed they amounted Our political correspondent | :06:46. | :06:47. | |
Chris Mason joins us Is there anything that sounds worse | :06:48. | :07:08. | |
than a stealth death tax? Quite, and critics were keen to make that point | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
in the direction of the government over the last couple of weeks, since | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
this idea started causing something of a row. The idea was a sliding | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
scale of charges would be introduced for what's known as probate of the | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
legal fees associated with processing and estate after death. | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
-- as probate, the legal fees. That would rise from nothing for the | :07:32. | :07:34. | |
smaller states up to ?20,000 for the largest. At the moment it is a flat | :07:35. | :07:41. | |
rate of around ?150. There were critics in the House of Commons and | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
the House of Lords who questioned whether the Ministry of Justice have | :07:46. | :07:48. | |
the power to pull off this change. What they say it is they have run | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
out of time. Parliament is about to pack up and politicians will leave | :07:53. | :07:56. | |
here and start knocking on doors to get votes, they have run out of | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
time. The question will be if it re-emerges at the other side of the | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
general election or if it is quietly ditched for ever. One other line of | :08:07. | :08:12. | |
news to bring you coming up today, Labour are talking about class sizes | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
in England with Jeremy Corbyn heading to the west of England and | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
south Wales saying there are super-sized classes into many | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
English schools and children are crammed in like sardines. No new | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
policy announcement from Labour. The Conservatives pointed to class sizes | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
in Wales, where Labour is in charge, infant classes have crept up, and | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
acknowledge that there is more to be done in England as far as class | :08:40. | :08:43. | |
sizes is concerned and they are not complacent. Thank you. | :08:44. | :08:45. | |
A ban on sugary drinks in hospitals in England is being proposed, | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
unless suppliers cut their sales over the next year. | :08:50. | :08:51. | |
NHS England say it must set a healthy example to help combat | :08:52. | :08:54. | |
obesity, diabetes and tooth decay, but the soft drinks industry says it | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
It is said that a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down at the | :08:59. | :09:12. | |
country's Sweet tooth is having a devastating impact on public health, | :09:13. | :09:17. | |
according to NHS England, which insists suppliers must cut the sales | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
of sugary drinks in hospital shops, restaurants and vending machines | :09:22. | :09:25. | |
over the next year to under 10% of total drink sales. Many retailers | :09:26. | :09:31. | |
including WH Smith and Marks Spencer have signed up. NHS England | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
say if all don't come on board then a ban will be introduced. As a | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
nation we are consuming too much sugar which means more people are | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
overweight, putting them at greater risk of type 2 diabetes, heart | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
disease and common forms of cancer. So this is the NHS taking a lead on | :09:48. | :09:54. | |
an important health issue. To fight obesity the WHO recommends a maximum | :09:55. | :09:58. | |
of six teaspoons of sugar day. Just one cannot drink can take you over | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
that limit. The idea of making hospitals healthier is aimed not | :10:03. | :10:07. | |
just at patients and their visitors, it is also sending a message out to | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
staff. The NHS employs 120 million people but it is believed 700,000 of | :10:13. | :10:19. | |
them are overweight or obese -- 1.3 million. In Scotland, 70% of drinks | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
must be sugar free in hospital shops. Wales and Northern Ireland | :10:24. | :10:29. | |
have introduced their own eating and drinking initiatives. At the British | :10:30. | :10:32. | |
songstress association says while it makes sense to promote sales of | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
healthy options, soft rinks should not be singled out for a potential | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
ban especially when companies have made great efforts to reduce | :10:42. | :10:43. | |
calories -- Soft Drinks Associaion. The average cyber criminal | :10:44. | :10:45. | |
investigated by the National Crime Agency is just 17-years-old | :10:46. | :10:47. | |
and is motivated not by money, but by a desire to show off | :10:48. | :10:50. | |
in front of friends. That's the conclusion | :10:51. | :10:53. | |
of a new report by the NCA, which has been looking at ways | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
to stop youngsters getting drawn Our correspondent Angus | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
Crawford has more. The internet is breeding | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
a new kind of criminal. Who would never | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
normally break the law. They are young and tech savvy | :11:07. | :11:11. | |
and sometimes don't even realise Investigators questioned teenagers | :11:12. | :11:14. | |
convicted of cyber crime The report found financial | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
gain wasn't a priority. But they did want to | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
impress other hackers. And thought the risk | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
of getting caught was low. The early motivations | :11:28. | :11:30. | |
can be the challenge, proving to their peers online | :11:31. | :11:32. | |
that they can complete the challenge or they can break into certain | :11:33. | :11:41. | |
things, or find vulnerabilities. But we do see, if they are good | :11:42. | :11:48. | |
at that and if they can build their reputations in forums | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
and prove to their peers, we do see them being getting | :11:53. | :11:54. | |

Over 100,000 people and 1000 exhibitors expected here over the | :14:56. | :14:59. | |
coming days, all enjoying some of these gorgeous spring blooms, among | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
the daffodils and tulips at the moment. But will your spring colour | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
be suffering Patchy rain and drizzle in the | :15:07. | :15:43. | |
hills, in the east some cloud breaks across much of eastern, Central and | :15:44. | :15:48. | |
southern parts of England. Some sunny spells were many. It is | :15:49. | :15:52. | |
largely frost free as well. Cooler across the south-west, admittedly, | :15:53. | :15:57. | |
but a fine start for most and for many a brighter day than yesterday. | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
Wales brightest in the south. In the north we have cloud, thickening up | :16:03. | :16:05. | |
through the day and thickening cloud across Northern Ireland will | :16:06. | :16:08. | |
threaten the odd spot of light rain and drizzle through this morning. | :16:09. | :16:12. | |
Into the afternoon we are likely to see some weather conditions pushed | :16:13. | :16:15. | |
towards the areas around the North Coast. Through the day we have that | :16:16. | :16:19. | |
area of rain edging its way southwards, are coming more of the | :16:20. | :16:23. | |
jet in the west, eastern areas turning dry and brighter and much of | :16:24. | :16:26. | |
northern Scotland brightening up after a while. Showers in Orkney and | :16:27. | :16:32. | |
Shetland. In southern and eastern England, as well as the East | :16:33. | :16:36. | |
Midlands and south Wales we will see some sunny spells. The warmest | :16:37. | :16:41. | |
conditions, some in the south could hit 18 to 20 Celsius, eastern | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
Scotland cooler than you were yesterday. Taking us through the | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
night into tomorrow, the rain in Scotland pushes its way southwards | :16:50. | :16:51. | |
and fragments a little bit. It introduces colder air to start the | :16:52. | :16:56. | |
weekend. So in Scotland, maybe Northern Ireland, but mainly | :16:57. | :16:58. | |
Scotland and parts of northern England will see a touch of frost to | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
start Saturday. Should be a reasonably bright start. Saturday | :17:03. | :17:05. | |
will see cloudy conditions. Eastern Scotland and eastern parts of | :17:06. | :17:08. | |
England a few showers around. Northern Ireland fairly cloudy | :17:09. | :17:17. | |
through the day but elsewhere a few cloud breaks. Some good spells of | :17:18. | :17:20. | |
sunshine across Wales. Not as warm as today but temperatures in the | :17:21. | :17:23. | |
South are getting into double figures. Across eastern coasts it | :17:24. | :17:25. | |
will feel distinctly chilly. Temperatures on the rise as we go | :17:26. | :17:29. | |
into Sunday. After a chilly night at a touch of frost around, most leases | :17:30. | :17:33. | |
dry. Again on Sunday the brightest will be across the south. Especially | :17:34. | :17:36. | |
in the morning, the cloud will build-up. The Brive increasing | :17:37. | :17:39. | |
through the day. Outbreaks of rain starting to push in and across | :17:40. | :17:42. | |
Scotland as we finished Sunday there will be heavy rain in the north and | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
gales or severe gales starting to develop, to take us into Sunday | :17:47. | :17:50. | |
night. At that leaves into Sunday, a word to the wise, it will turn | :17:51. | :17:55. | |
distinctly chilly. A feel of big autumn showers, some of those heavy | :17:56. | :17:58. | |
with hail and thunder and into next week there could be sleet and snow | :17:59. | :18:02. | |
mixed in, especially in the hills in the north. That is something to look | :18:03. | :18:07. | |
forward to, but it may bring some rain across southern areas, where | :18:08. | :18:10. | |
the spring colours are suffering but the lack of rainfall recently. That | :18:11. | :18:14. | |
is all from this gorgeous location for now. We will have more later in | :18:15. | :18:18. | |
the morning. Looking forward to that. | :18:19. | :18:20. | |
It is what the French security forces had feared, | :18:21. | :18:23. | |
another terror attack on the streets of Paris, | :18:24. | :18:25. | |
just days before the first round of the closely watched | :18:26. | :18:28. | |
A policeman was shot dead, and two others injured, | :18:29. | :18:30. | |
French President Francois Hollande has pledged the country's security | :18:31. | :18:34. | |
TRANSLATION: We are convinced that the track the investigation is on | :18:35. | :18:55. | |
will reveal that the event was terrorist in nature. | :18:56. | :18:57. | |
Well, Charlie, you can see the is in Paris for us this morning. | :18:58. | :19:06. | |
Well, Charlie, you can see the beautiful Sunrise behind me. Paris | :19:07. | :19:11. | |
is waking up to a familiar feeling, a depressing one, that yet again | :19:12. | :19:15. | |
they have suffered a terrorist attack. Imagine the scene last | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
night. France in the full throes of the final hours, final days of the | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
presidential election campaign. Alive, televised debate where each | :19:24. | :19:28. | |
of the candidates got to speak to the French people on live TV and be | :19:29. | :19:31. | |
grilled by interviewers, and right in the middle of that, just after | :19:32. | :19:37. | |
9pm last night, a man just behind us here, on the other side of the Arc | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
de Triomphe, pulled up alongside a police van. He lets out with an | :19:42. | :19:45. | |
assault rifle and shot almost at point-blank range, one police | :19:46. | :19:49. | |
officer, killing him, injuring two others. It has caused absolute panic | :19:50. | :19:55. | |
on the streets. The Champs-Elysees was closed completely, and there | :19:56. | :19:59. | |
were hours of police investigations at the scene afterwards. The | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
President, Francois Hollande, has called a meeting of the security | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
Cabinet this evening, at France is already under a state of emergency. | :20:09. | :20:12. | |
It has been since November 2015, the previous Paris attack. So it remains | :20:13. | :20:16. | |
to be seen just how much tighter security can actually get. I will | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
give you a sense of the reaction from newspapers. You would expect | :20:21. | :20:23. | |
that three days before the presidential election he would have | :20:24. | :20:26. | |
nothing but politics on the front page. But let's show you on the | :20:27. | :20:30. | |
Figaro, one of the main newspapers, terrorism strikes again at the heart | :20:31. | :20:37. | |
of Paris. Inside, coverage really dominated either first reports. Of | :20:38. | :20:41. | |
course, this can quite late last night. A terrorist attack on the | :20:42. | :20:46. | |
Champs-Elysees. A picture they are of the mobilisation of the security | :20:47. | :20:50. | |
forces, as they help people leave the area -- a picture of there. | :20:51. | :21:05. | |
David has lived through many of these attacks before. First of all, | :21:06. | :21:09. | |
your reaction was not one of surprise, was a? No, this is | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
something we were all braced for, especially after the arrest of two | :21:15. | :21:18. | |
suspects in Marseilles on Tuesday who were accused of plotting a | :21:19. | :21:21. | |
series of attacks in the run-up to the election, and one of the big | :21:22. | :21:25. | |
questions around this election, apart from who is going to win the | :21:26. | :21:29. | |
first round of voting, which happens on Sunday, the other question has | :21:30. | :21:37. | |
always been our terrorist attacks likely, either before, during or | :21:38. | :21:42. | |
immediately after those and I'm afraid we got the answer last night. | :21:43. | :21:50. | |
In this coming -- and this coming three days before the election, who | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
might be seen as benefiting from an incident like this? There are four | :21:55. | :21:59. | |
leading candidates, according to the polls, and two of them have been | :22:00. | :22:02. | |
campaigning as law Order candidates. They are Marine Le Pen | :22:03. | :22:06. | |
of the anti- emigrant Front National, and the centre-right | :22:07. | :22:15. | |
candidate Fillon. Both of them have been campaigning very strongly, | :22:16. | :22:20. | |
saying they would be tough on Islamic extremism. Marine Le Pen | :22:21. | :22:25. | |
says if she was elected she would expelled from France anyone | :22:26. | :22:29. | |
suspected of involvement in Islamist extremism and Mr Fillon has written | :22:30. | :22:36. | |
a book called defeating Islamic totalitarianism. Those two | :22:37. | :22:40. | |
candidates have been talking toughest on law and order. The other | :22:41. | :22:47. | |
leading candidates, the Independent centrist Macron and his colleague | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
will probably struggle to convince the public that they have the | :22:52. | :22:56. | |
credentials to get tough on terror. Thank you very much, David. And of | :22:57. | :23:02. | |
course, the security situation has been so tight for so many months | :23:03. | :23:07. | |
now, at this attack pushes security right up to the top of people's | :23:08. | :23:12. | |
concerns once again. Thank you very much for that. Before we let you go, | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
I want to talk a little bit about the ongoing security situation in | :23:17. | :23:20. | |
Paris. As you mentioned yourself, they have been absolutely ready and | :23:21. | :23:25. | |
braced for an attack, and security is incredibly tight in that city, | :23:26. | :23:32. | |
all of the time. Yes, it is. And an extra 50,000 security forces are on | :23:33. | :23:39. | |
the streets, just for this weekend, because of the election taking | :23:40. | :23:43. | |
place, anyway. The state of emergency has meant that there have | :23:44. | :23:47. | |
been so many extra security forces visible. Just yesterday, walking | :23:48. | :23:51. | |
around in Paris, there were police officers everywhere, they were army | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
patrols going around, but it is an extraordinary mix, because people | :23:57. | :24:00. | |
just get on with what they are doing. Normal lives continue, with | :24:01. | :24:03. | |
this mix of security presence and everyday activities. Thank you very | :24:04. | :24:10. | |
much indeed, and we will be back in Paris, live this morning. It is | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
interesting that they have been so ready for a security attack, but | :24:15. | :24:17. | |
almost no amount of security can stop a lone gunman getting through, | :24:18. | :24:21. | |
which I think is the issue they have been dealing with last night. On the | :24:22. | :24:27. | |
front page of the papers, the story just breaking in time for the front | :24:28. | :24:33. | |
pages this morning. That is the shot we are all seeing this morning in | :24:34. | :24:37. | |
the immediate aftermath of the shooting yesterday evening. The same | :24:38. | :24:40. | |
picture on lots of the papers' front pages this morning, the Guardian has | :24:41. | :24:46. | |
that shot of the Champs-Elysees close last night after the shooting | :24:47. | :24:50. | |
which left one police officer dead, and others injured. On the front | :24:51. | :24:54. | |
page of the Daily Mail, you can see the picture back, the police | :24:55. | :25:01. | |
officers gathered. We know as Karen was describing, there was already | :25:02. | :25:05. | |
huge security operation is in place in Paris. Those candidates were | :25:06. | :25:12. | |
addressing the cameras and being interviewed as events were | :25:13. | :25:16. | |
unfolding. Some newer bits, and some did not. One policeman dead and two | :25:17. | :25:20. | |
injured, and that is the front page of the Daily Mail. In terms of | :25:21. | :25:25. | |
timing, the timing was interesting, because the candidates were on and | :25:26. | :25:29. | |
were able to react to the shooting while the debate was going on. The | :25:30. | :25:34. | |
front page of the Times, a similar picture, the Champs-Elysees lit up | :25:35. | :25:38. | |
last night and the single police car blocking the way. So a lot more | :25:39. | :25:43. | |
coverage this morning. We will be live in Paris as more reaction comes | :25:44. | :25:47. | |
in, and the French President is holding a special emergency meeting | :25:48. | :25:51. | |
to discuss the security operations in France over the next few days. Of | :25:52. | :25:57. | |
course, it is a key time, with the elections about to happen. The first | :25:58. | :26:00. | |
round of those elections due to happen on Sunday. More coming up | :26:01. | :26:02. | |

Marcus Rashford. He is a local lad. They relied on him to get the | :35:17. | :35:20. | |
winning goal in the Europa league. Just look at the joy. I think he | :35:21. | :35:22. | |
really earned the celebration. Manchester United are into | :35:23. | :35:24. | |
the Europa League semi-finals but they needed an extra-time | :35:25. | :35:26. | |

or a day after, you know, I'll be able to look back a little | :36:24. | :36:48. | |
bit and think where I'm at now from where I was, you know, | :36:49. | :36:51. | |
a week ago and, you know, my elbow felt pretty good, | :36:52. | :36:55. | |
I served much better than I did yesterday and that's only | :36:56. | :36:58. | |
going to get better, so hopefully I keep going | :36:59. | :37:00. | |

potentially good players into a squad at one time, so I see this as | :37:26. | :37:29. | |
an opportunity to really take the team forward. If I can develop three | :37:30. | :37:34. | |
or four of these guys to be better than the Lions guys, it has been an | :37:35. | :37:38. | |
enormously successful tour, and that is what I am looking for, and I | :37:39. | :37:40. | |
think we can. Great Britain's Olympic medallist | :37:41. | :37:42. | |

from the Crucible on BBC Two. Now, I have to say... What? Did you | :38:36. | :38:52. | |
see that, what was going on? Incredible. I never get tired of | :38:53. | :38:57. | |
seeing those shots where they hit the white ball, the cue ball, then | :38:58. | :39:02. | |
it hits the other ball and it accelerates afterwards, you know, | :39:03. | :39:07. | |
with topspin. It is clever. Let's have a look, shall we. Oh, that is | :39:08. | :39:14. | |
cheeky. The level of skill, concentration, accuracy. He didn't | :39:15. | :39:18. | |
even break into a smile. No reaction or emotion. Thank you. Well, we are | :39:19. | :39:27. | |

The 37th London Marathon gets under way this weekend, | :39:36. | :39:38. | |

We'll talk to him later in the programme, but for now he's | :39:50. | :39:52. | |
picked out some of his favourite marathon moments | :39:53. | :39:55. | |
2-hander after 26 miles, 385 yards. He is on his way to winning the 1984 | :39:56. | :40:16. | |
London Maritime. He deserves it, he has had a great run today -- | :40:17. | :40:24. | |
Marathon. What a triumph this is for Gateshead, first and second. Liz | :40:25. | :40:34. | |

day for the most accomplished distance marathon on one of -- | :40:41. | :40:47. | |
Marathon. I am terminally ill with breast cancer and I want to show | :40:48. | :40:51. | |
somebody with a similar prognosis you can set yourself a goal and it | :40:52. | :40:56. | |
doesn't matter if you see it as impossible. I think she could be the | :40:57. | :40:59. | |
star of this year's London Marathon - absolutely amazing. It is going to | :41:00. | :41:06. | |
be so close to the record, he is trying to force it on. He has his | :41:07. | :41:13. | |
eyes set on the clock and he wins it, it is a world record for the | :41:14. | :41:19. | |
American. Fantastic performance. Paula Radcliffe comes home to win | :41:20. | :41:27. | |
the Flora London Marathon in an excellent performance, and London | :41:28. | :41:33. | |

Oh, I can't wait to talk to him, his like a real champion. | :41:35. | :41:41. | |
Oh, I can't wait to talk to him, his voice is lovely, I just love it. It | :41:42. | :41:46. | |
is one of those voices that is absolutely associated with the sport | :41:47. | :41:47. | |
and we will see him later. Showing off has always got teenagers | :41:48. | :41:49. | |
into trouble but usually not enough to get them investigated | :41:50. | :41:52. | |
by the National Crime Agency. With the average alleged | :41:53. | :41:55. | |
cyber-criminal now just 17 years old, the agency says a desire | :41:56. | :41:57. | |
to impress their peers, rather than making money, | :41:58. | :42:00. | |
is turning tech-savvy Joining us from our London | :42:01. | :42:02. | |
newsroom is Paul Hoare from the National Crime Agency, | :42:03. | :42:09. | |
and here in the studio Morning to you both. Paul, if I can | :42:10. | :42:12. | |
a former hacker. Morning to you both. Paul, if I can | :42:13. | :42:21. | |
come to you first, tell us how the profile of criminals, especially | :42:22. | :42:25. | |
those involved in hacking, has changed? I am not sure the profile | :42:26. | :42:30. | |
of people involved in hacking has changed. It is just a different | :42:31. | :42:35. | |
pathway into crime for this type of crime for young people than it would | :42:36. | :42:39. | |
be for traditional crimes. There is an ease of access to - as the report | :42:40. | :42:49. | |
says - tools that allow deployment for cyber crime purposes and it | :42:50. | :42:52. | |
allows young people to get into crime easier than on a traditional | :42:53. | :42:58. | |
crime type. The report would suggest they are not getting involved for | :42:59. | :43:02. | |
financial gain, perhaps just to show off to friends, is that something | :43:03. | :43:07. | |
you would agree with? That is certainly from the evidence we have | :43:08. | :43:13. | |
collected, although later in criminal career is the financial | :43:14. | :43:18. | |
motivation kicks in. The initial interest in hacking and cyber crime | :43:19. | :43:25. | |
starts not from financial motivation, it starts from peer | :43:26. | :43:32. | |
pressure and a need for acceptance. Mustafa is here with us, good | :43:33. | :43:37. | |
morning. You were found guilty of computer misuse hacking a few years | :43:38. | :43:46. | |
ago. What age were you? I was 16 when I was arrested. I was 13, 14 | :43:47. | :43:52. | |
when I got involved. And what were you doing that was breaking the law? | :43:53. | :43:57. | |
Hacking into various governmental and large organisations. And for me | :43:58. | :44:04. | |
it wasn't financial, as the report suggests, I was interested in | :44:05. | :44:07. | |
technology and there were some political motivations behind its. | :44:08. | :44:10. | |
Did you know you are breaking the law? I didn't know I was breaking | :44:11. | :44:17. | |
the law -- I did know I was breaking the law although I didn't know the | :44:18. | :44:20. | |
ramifications. And they were that you were sentenced, although it was | :44:21. | :44:25. | |
suspended, and the question is, have you stopped doing that, I am | :44:26. | :44:30. | |
assuming you have, because you are a reformed hacker. You try to | :44:31. | :44:34. | |
encourage others to be careful? I have stopped doing illegal hacking | :44:35. | :44:38. | |
but I am generally in this cyber security field. I am doing cyber | :44:39. | :44:44. | |
security research at. When you hear this report talking about trying to | :44:45. | :44:49. | |
impress young people, trying to impress their peers, is that what | :44:50. | :44:55. | |
you're doing, why were you doing it? Information security, I think there | :44:56. | :44:59. | |
is always this motivation to impress your peers, whether it is legal or | :45:00. | :45:04. | |
professional. In the professional cyber security industry, you get | :45:05. | :45:07. | |
street cred for exposing vulnerabilities in high profile | :45:08. | :45:13. | |
products. Paul, I don't know if you were able to hear what Mustafa was | :45:14. | :45:17. | |
saying, it is a different type of attitude, isn't it, the approach to | :45:18. | :45:24. | |
hacking that hackers like Mustafa - they are not looking necessarily to | :45:25. | :45:28. | |
do something terribly bad. What they are doing is trying to push the | :45:29. | :45:32. | |
I think he makes a good point in begin to try to stop them? | :45:33. | :45:40. | |
I think he makes a good point in that he didn't understand that what | :45:41. | :45:43. | |
he was doing was actually criminal. And I think that a lot of people who | :45:44. | :45:47. | |
get involved in minor levels of cyber crime don't understand that | :45:48. | :45:50. | |
the implications, and what they are actually doing. At the agency were | :45:51. | :45:57. | |
doing a lot of work through the Department of Education -- we are | :45:58. | :46:01. | |
doing a lot of work through the Department of Education and trying | :46:02. | :46:04. | |
to pass the message on the young people, to try and understand some | :46:05. | :46:07. | |
of the implications of what goes on. Can I ask you what the locations | :46:08. | :46:13. | |
are? Well, the skill sets that these young people have a hugely valuable | :46:14. | :46:16. | |
and marketable -- what the implications are. In non- criminal | :46:17. | :46:22. | |
careers. And we need to channel those to support e-commerce, to | :46:23. | :46:27. | |
support the country, because there is a lack of skills in cyber | :46:28. | :46:32. | |
security and cyber skills. But it is trying to get the people to | :46:33. | :46:37. | |
understand that, there are a lot of jobs out there in that field, but | :46:38. | :46:40. | |
actually getting one of them once you have a criminal conviction is | :46:41. | :46:44. | |
more challenging. And the Stuffer, can I just ask you, once you have | :46:45. | :46:50. | |
the skills to be able to hack into things illegally, and you have those | :46:51. | :46:54. | |
skills, is it hard not to -- Mustafa? I think it kind of depends | :46:55. | :46:59. | |
on your motivation. As a teenager or a very young person it is quite | :47:00. | :47:04. | |
thrilling to be able to break into systems and discover interesting | :47:05. | :47:07. | |
things about them. Because you have got into a place you shouldn't be. | :47:08. | :47:13. | |
Exactly, and also it is a bit of a game, a bit of a challenge, and I | :47:14. | :47:17. | |
think people find that very appealing. Mustafa, thank you very | :47:18. | :47:23. | |
much for your time this morning, and Paul, thank you for your time as | :47:24. | :47:25. | |
well. Let's take a look at | :47:26. | :47:25. | |
this morning's weather. Welcome back to the Harrogate flower | :47:26. | :47:39. | |
show, and one of the themes this year is Haute Couture. These are | :47:40. | :47:42. | |
stunning designs made by award-winning artist and costume you | :47:43. | :47:53. | |
from New Zealand. -- costumier. These take three months to May, 70 | :47:54. | :47:57. | |
metres of fabric and miles upon miles of the red. They look amazing, | :47:58. | :48:03. | |
but are they waterproof? Probably not, and you probably need that for | :48:04. | :48:06. | |
the UK climate, not that there has been much rain around so far this | :48:07. | :48:11. | |
spring. But what about this weekend? If we take a look at the forecast, | :48:12. | :48:15. | |
the forecast for most will be largely dry. There will be one or | :48:16. | :48:20. | |
two showers around at some sunny spells but the night will be on the | :48:21. | :48:26. | |
cool side. Make note if you have plans overnight, with this morning | :48:27. | :48:29. | |
being everything floral. A frost free start to Friday, lots of cloud | :48:30. | :48:35. | |
around. Outbreaks of rain across Scotland, more expensive to | :48:36. | :48:39. | |
typically west of the country, but eastern areas cloudy with some | :48:40. | :48:43. | |
splashes of rain at times. Deb areas across parts of north-west England | :48:44. | :48:46. | |
with patchy rain on the hills. Across the high ground and eastern | :48:47. | :48:50. | |
and central and southern England, a dry start to the day. Plenty of | :48:51. | :48:54. | |
cloud with some sunshine raking through here and there and sunshine | :48:55. | :48:59. | |
going into the afternoon, just a small chance of one or two isolated | :49:00. | :49:04. | |
showers. Wales it is split, the North will see fairly cloudy | :49:05. | :49:08. | |
conditions. Maybe some patchy rain and drizzle later, as we could see | :49:09. | :49:13. | |
on the Isle of Man. In Northern Ireland, a predominantly dry start, | :49:14. | :49:17. | |
and the cloud will produce the odd spot of rain and drizzle in the | :49:18. | :49:21. | |
morning, but into the afternoon as the rain eases away from much of | :49:22. | :49:24. | |
Scotland it will turn west to the north of Northern Ireland. Scotland | :49:25. | :49:28. | |
brightening up, some showers in Orkney and Shetland and the chilly | :49:29. | :49:33. | |
breeze. A bit damp for the hills of northern England, north Wales and | :49:34. | :49:36. | |
maybe one or two showers in the Midlands as well. Eastern areas | :49:37. | :49:40. | |
always warmest, and the South could see temperatures of 18 or 19 | :49:41. | :49:45. | |
degrees. Feeling chilly as you finish the day across northern | :49:46. | :49:48. | |
Scotland, the cooler air pushing southwards through the night, that | :49:49. | :49:50. | |
patchy rain working its way into parts of England through the night, | :49:51. | :49:54. | |
and parts of northern England and Scotland, and maybe even Northern | :49:55. | :49:58. | |
Ireland, a touch of frost into tomorrow morning. As we start the | :49:59. | :50:03. | |
weekend, largely dry and feeling cooler than today. East of England | :50:04. | :50:06. | |
and Northern Ireland predominantly cloudy, but still some sunny spells | :50:07. | :50:11. | |
possible. Away from that, sunniest across Wales. Temperatures into the | :50:12. | :50:14. | |
mid-teens in the south but feeling chilly in the breeze across eastern | :50:15. | :50:18. | |
Scotland and the eastern England. A touch of frost into Sunday but most | :50:19. | :50:22. | |
places having a dry day with some sunshine. Clouding over a bit into | :50:23. | :50:26. | |
the afternoon, especially for Scotland and Northern Ireland. | :50:27. | :50:29. | |
Whether breeze picks up we will see some severe gales develop later on. | :50:30. | :50:32. | |
Temperatures compared to Saturday, many parts of northern east, will be | :50:33. | :50:39. | |
up. By the end of the day, severe gales as I mentioned in the north of | :50:40. | :50:42. | |
Scotland. That will rattle eastwards overnight. Rain will push its way | :50:43. | :50:46. | |
southwards, and into the start of next week there will be chilly | :50:47. | :50:50. | |
conditions. Could even be some wintry showers with some sleet and | :50:51. | :50:54. | |
snow on the hills and maybe across Scotland and Northern Ireland and | :50:55. | :50:57. | |
England to lower levels as well. The case of April showers into the start | :50:58. | :51:00. | |
of next week and feeling chilly. That is how you forecast looks. I | :51:01. | :51:04. | |
have just found something while I have been looking around. They have | :51:05. | :51:09. | |
put Carol Kirkwood's old shoot good use. She has several to spare. Is it | :51:10. | :51:13. | |
beautiful. -- isn't it beautiful. As you can see, traffic is moving | :51:14. | :51:41. | |
and the capital city is trying to get back to some kind of normal this | :51:42. | :51:45. | |
morning. A reminder of the sequence of events. Gunmen who shot damp a | :51:46. | :51:51. | |
policeman has been identified, with French officials yet to release this | :51:52. | :51:58. | |
name -- gunman. Lots of media sources reporting this name, but it | :51:59. | :52:01. | |
hasn't been officially reported as yet. The President, Francois | :52:02. | :52:06. | |
Hollande, will chair an emergency Cabinet meeting as France readies | :52:07. | :52:09. | |
itself for Sunday's presidential vote. | :52:10. | :52:11. | |
Ben has been speaking to some French voters and businesses working | :52:12. | :52:14. | |
here in the UK, and inevitably this morning, one issue | :52:15. | :52:17. | |
The idea was for you to be talking about the elections and the | :52:18. | :52:22. | |
implications for business. But this latest terror attack is such a big | :52:23. | :52:26. | |
talking point for France, and a lot of implications deriving from that. | :52:27. | :52:32. | |
Yes, you're right. We were intending to talk about what is going to be a | :52:33. | :52:37. | |
crucial election this weekend, French people going to the polls to | :52:38. | :52:41. | |
decide on their next president. It is really interesting, of course, | :52:42. | :52:45. | |
because so much is at stake and it is a really tight election. The | :52:46. | :52:49. | |
candidates out there are really vying for those votes. This morning | :52:50. | :52:53. | |
many now waking up to news of that potential terror attack rate in the | :52:54. | :52:56. | |
capital city, in Paris, last night. So what difference could it make for | :52:57. | :53:01. | |
voters, and will it favour certain candidates in this election? | :53:02. | :53:06. | |
Crucially, whether any candidate is stronger on terrorism or security at | :53:07. | :53:10. | |
home. Interestingly, if you look at some of the papers, this was a first | :53:11. | :53:15. | |
edition, printed too early to mark the attack in Paris last night that | :53:16. | :53:19. | |
it gives you a sense of what is at stake. It confirms the lack of trust | :53:20. | :53:23. | |
that the voters have in the candidates, and it goes on to say, | :53:24. | :53:26. | |
it explains in part the disenchantment that French people | :53:27. | :53:30. | |
have when it comes to their politicians. So really a lot at | :53:31. | :53:33. | |
stake. What difference could it make? With me are some experts. | :53:34. | :53:39. | |
Explain this for us, because there is a lot at stake in this election. | :53:40. | :53:43. | |
We saw in the papers and we have talked about it already. There is no | :53:44. | :53:48. | |
clear winner. It really is a tide race. It really is a strange | :53:49. | :53:52. | |
election. In the context of the terror attacks and a flagging | :53:53. | :53:57. | |
economy, the front runners were knocked out early. We how left with | :53:58. | :54:02. | |
a socialist candidate who is to left wing, a centrist candidate, Emmanuel | :54:03. | :54:07. | |
Macron, who has never been elected to anything, and a candidate on the | :54:08. | :54:13. | |
hard left, and the far right candidate Marine Le Pen. Four | :54:14. | :54:16. | |
candidates within the margin of error and voters still undecided so | :54:17. | :54:20. | |
there is no way of knowing who will win on Sunday. So such a close race | :54:21. | :54:26. | |
even with the events of the last 24 hours within Paris. Will this sway | :54:27. | :54:31. | |
voters are about to make ballot box? I don't honestly think it will. We | :54:32. | :54:36. | |
have already had, unfortunately, a number of terrorist attacks in | :54:37. | :54:40. | |
France. I think this one will not change people's mind if the other | :54:41. | :54:44. | |
ones have not already done so. It is interesting, we talk about the | :54:45. | :54:48. | |
impact on voters, and I am joined by the two of them this morning. Just | :54:49. | :54:55. | |
to start with you, what difference will this make? Who were you | :54:56. | :54:59. | |
intending to vote for, and will this sway your vote? I think I am going | :55:00. | :55:05. | |
to vote for Fillon. I don't think it is going to change. It is very sad, | :55:06. | :55:09. | |
what happened yesterday, but sadly you have already had quite a few | :55:10. | :55:14. | |
attacks in France, in Paris, in Nice, and the last year, and this | :55:15. | :55:19. | |
issue has already been taken into account in their programme. So I | :55:20. | :55:23. | |
don't think it will change my vote, and I think Fillon has already | :55:24. | :55:28. | |
addressed the issue. Does this change how you perceive things in | :55:29. | :55:32. | |
France? Are their candidates in this race who could tackle security and | :55:33. | :55:37. | |
terrorism more than others? Well, I think, as my neighbour said, it has | :55:38. | :55:41. | |
been there for a long time. France is under a state of emergency for a | :55:42. | :55:46. | |
while. The French, on my side I would vote for Macron. I think it | :55:47. | :55:54. | |
was predictable, it was not a matter of if, but when. But I think all of | :55:55. | :56:00. | |
the candidates last night were quite united, to show their support for | :56:01. | :56:11. | |
France. And trying to be perceived as strong candidates. As I said, I | :56:12. | :56:15. | |
think it would be more after which will be important. This election has | :56:16. | :56:19. | |
been very electrifying. People don't trust their politicians, but they | :56:20. | :56:23. | |
have to be protected by the politicians, so a lot of anger and | :56:24. | :56:26. | |
protection, which is very confusing for the voters. On my side, I think | :56:27. | :56:31. | |
Macron is the right candidate to do that. And for now, thank you very | :56:32. | :56:38. | |
much. We are going to talk about this all morning, because clearly it | :56:39. | :56:41. | |
is the one thing that people are talking about down here. But also, | :56:42. | :56:46. | |
given as you heard such a tight election race, there is a lot to | :56:47. | :56:50. | |
play for and the big question is whether this change the intentions | :56:51. | :56:53. | |
of voters when they go to the polls on Sunday. More from me a little | :56:54. | :57:00. | |
later. And we will be live in Paris throughout the programme this | :57:01. | :00:20. | |
there will probably be some sunny spells through the afternoon. | :00:21. | :00:23. | |
I'm back with the latest from the BBC London newsroom | :00:24. | :00:25. | |
Hello, this is Breakfast, with Charlie Stayt and Sally Nugent. | :00:26. | :00:29. | |
A policeman is shot dead on the Champs-Elysee. | :00:30. | :00:31. | |
The French President says he's certain the attack was terrorism. | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
The area is dangerous because of shoot gun! | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
The gunman began firing at a bus that was carrying police officers. | :00:38. | :00:43. | |
He was killed when they returned fire as people in the packed street | :00:44. | :00:47. | |

officers on the Champs-Elysees, one of the busiest areas | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
in the French capital. Shortly afterwards he was shot dead | :02:36. | :02:37. | |
as eyewitnesses ran for cover. Two other police | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
officers were injured. The French President, | :02:41. | :02:42. | |

was just panic all around. Everyone started running | :03:46. | :03:47. | |
down the Champs-Elysee. Just by instinct, I didn't stop | :03:48. | :03:49. | |
to work out what was going on, The Champs-Elysee was already full | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
of police officers guarding against an attack on civilians, | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
but it seems that this shooting Late into the night here the police | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
are still stopping people from approaching the scene | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
of the attack just a block And everyone around here wants | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
to know exactly what happened. The police want to make sure that | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
all nearby streets are now safe. They searched everyone coming out | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
of a nearby building. This country will now investigate | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
the shooting and make sure The latest information we have is | :04:20. | :04:21. | |

investigating if he acted alone or if he had any accomplices. And you | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
can see the Elysee Palace, this is the scene this morning, we | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
understand a meeting of the security used to be held, due to take place | :05:04. | :05:05. | |
any moment now. News of last night's shooting broke | :05:06. | :05:06. | |

Presidential election candidates The first round of the election | :05:10. | :05:10. | |
is due to take place on Sunday. The candidates were all quick | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
to condemn the attack, As news broke of another | :05:16. | :05:17. | |
terror attack in France, all 11 candidates standing | :05:18. | :05:21. | |

television appearances. As a mark of respect, | :05:24. | :05:32. | |

what happened tonight, I want to first and foremost say | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
that the nation stands We're faced with an act | :05:48. | :05:50. | |
that we cannot totally make sense of but sadly it seems | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
to resemble an act of terror. Marine Le Pen of the far right | :05:57. | :05:59. | |

while we've been talking, we know that at least one police | :06:27. | :06:27. | |
officer has been killed. This threat is incalculable | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
and is going to be a part of our daily lives | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
for years to come. France has been in a state | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
of emergency since a string of jihadist terror attacks that | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
began in 2015 and have killed The nation is once | :06:43. | :06:45. | |
again on high alert. 50,000 members of the security | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
forces have been deployed We'll be live with our correspondent | :06:51. | :06:52. | |
in Paris in a few moments. German prosecutors have confirmed | :06:53. | :07:02. | |
they have arrested a 28-year-old man suspected of bombing | :07:03. | :07:05. | |
the Borussia Dortmund team The man, who has German | :07:06. | :07:07. | |
and Russian nationality, is accused of attempted | :07:08. | :07:10. | |
murder, inflicting serious bodily Last week's blasts wounded Spanish | :07:11. | :07:12. | |
defender Marc Bartra. Let's get the latest | :07:13. | :07:24. | |
on the election campaign back here. This morning we're hearing that | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
government plans described by critics as a stealth death | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
tax have been scrapped The proposals involved increasing | :07:31. | :07:32. | |
the fees paid by some people Good morning. Good morning. This | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
Chris Mason can tell us more. Good morning. Good morning. This | :07:37. | :07:52. | |
will come as huge relief to people, fearing they would be clobbered by a | :07:53. | :07:59. | |
tax at the Ministry of Justice, which they were planning. At the | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
moment there is a flat rate fee for what is known as probate, the legal | :08:04. | :08:12. | |
fees associated with processing and now it is planned to go up to | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
?20,000 for the biggest state. What the government decided is because | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
MPs are packing up and knocking on doors for the election campaign, | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
they don't have time to get the whole thing through the Commons and | :08:26. | :08:28. | |
the Lords in order for it to happen, so the whole thing disappears for | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
now. The interesting thing will be if it re-emerges on page 70 of the | :08:33. | :08:38. | |
election manifesto in future. We don't know that yet. One other | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
thing, Jeremy Corbyn for Labour heading to the west of England and | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
south Wales to talk about class sizes. He says too many children are | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
crammed into classes like sardines, super-size classes, as he describes | :08:52. | :08:58. | |
it. No new policy about what Labour would do to tackle what they see is | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
a problem. The Conservatives point to Wales, where Labour is in charge, | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
and infant class sizes have climbed. They acknowledge there is more to do | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
on class sizes and say they are not complacent. Thank you. | :09:12. | :09:13. | |
Sugary drinks could be banned in hospitals in England, | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
unless the drinks suppliers cut their sales over the next year. | :09:17. | :09:19. | |
NHS England say it must set a healthy example to help combat | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
obesity, diabetes and tooth decay and it can do this by banning | :09:24. | :09:26. | |

at that and if they can build their reputations in forums | :10:30. | :10:33. | |

coming up in a couple of minutes, and all of the sport too. Yes, let's | :12:26. | :12:32. | |
bring you up-to-date with the front of the morning papers. We are | :12:33. | :12:39. | |
reporting on the terror attack, reported terror attack in Paris last | :12:40. | :12:42. | |
night, and that has made most of this morning papers. The front of | :12:43. | :12:51. | |
the times, -- Times, from the Champs-Elysee at the aftermath of | :12:52. | :12:54. | |
the attack, the same in the Guardian, and that is a theme | :12:55. | :12:57. | |
through the papers this morning. Yes, one image dominating the | :12:58. | :13:01. | |
papers, on the front of the Daily Telegraph," terror on the | :13:02. | :13:09. | |
Champs-Elysee, " and here are the images of the immediate aftermath. | :13:10. | :13:14. | |
That is our main story this morning. More than 200 people in France had | :13:15. | :13:19. | |
been killed at the hands of jihadist terrorists in just over two years. | :13:20. | :13:21. | |
Morning to you. Now, several hours is in Paris for us. | :13:22. | :13:28. | |
Morning to you. Now, several hours after the attack, it appears light | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
is getting back to normal on the Champs-Elysee behind you. -- life is | :13:32. | :13:37. | |
getting back to normal. Yes, absolutely, just hearing you is a | :13:38. | :13:41. | |
problem because traffic is in full flow, the Metro stations are open | :13:42. | :13:45. | |
and the Champs-Elysee, after being in lockdown last night for hours, is | :13:46. | :13:50. | |
open again with tourists and passers-by resuming on the streets. | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
It seems, although there is a sense of acknowledgement of what happened | :13:55. | :13:57. | |
last night, there is a weariness and life is really getting on. Imagine | :13:58. | :14:01. | |
the scene, it was in the full throes of the presidential election | :14:02. | :14:07. | |
campaign, the live TV debate was under way, all 11 candidates, each | :14:08. | :14:10. | |
with 15 minutes, being grilled about plans for France if they are | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
elected, and at 9pm local time, just after 9pm, a man pulled up just on | :14:16. | :14:21. | |
the other side of the Arc de Triomphe at the top of the Chanson | :14:22. | :14:33. | |
-- Champs-Elysee and opened fire at point-blank range, killing one and | :14:34. | :14:38. | |
injuring two others, so there is a state of shock but unfortunately no | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
surprise. Thank you very much indeed and we will have the latest from the | :14:43. | :14:45. | |
city through the morning. Terrorism expert Chris Phillips | :14:46. | :14:46. | |
is the former head of the UK's National Counter Terrorism | :14:47. | :14:49. | |
Security Office. Very good morning to you, Chris. | :14:50. | :14:50. | |
central London now. Very good morning to you, Chris. | :14:51. | :14:59. | |
Just hearing the latest on the investigation and the immediate | :15:00. | :15:02. | |
aftermath of the attack in Paris, just give us your thoughts about the | :15:03. | :15:05. | |
sequence of events as we heard described. To be quite fair, this | :15:06. | :15:11. | |
appears to run along the same line that we have seen with other | :15:12. | :15:16. | |
terrorist attacks, will be on this occasion a vehicle wasn't used as | :15:17. | :15:19. | |
the attacking weapon, but it appears a single person, probably with | :15:20. | :15:24. | |
mental issues, has been radicalised in the Prison Service and has got a | :15:25. | :15:28. | |
desire to kill and obviously the police officer, the poor police | :15:29. | :15:32. | |
officer here, was the target. I think we have to face the fact that | :15:33. | :15:38. | |
people, prisons, are potentially making the problem worse here | :15:39. | :15:41. | |
because people are being radicalised within prisons and coming out with | :15:42. | :15:44. | |
So what we know about the situation mayhem. | :15:45. | :15:52. | |
So what we know about the situation last night was that there was a huge | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
security operation anyway across the whole France, because of a number of | :15:57. | :16:01. | |
attacks. There was a general election going on. The | :16:02. | :16:08. | |
Champs-Elysees, already such a high-profile location, with many | :16:09. | :16:12. | |
offices that anyway, the choice of an attack in that particular place? | :16:13. | :16:20. | |
Obviously it is a key area, a key street for Paris. Similar to the | :16:21. | :16:24. | |
attack in London, the bonus, if you like, from this, is that it did | :16:25. | :16:28. | |
happen where there were lots of police officers around. So the man | :16:29. | :16:31. | |
was killed by police very quickly, and so the attack did not take very | :16:32. | :16:36. | |
long. I would be surprised if this took more than a few seconds, this | :16:37. | :16:40. | |
attack. But of course, we have to bear in mind that there are | :16:41. | :16:43. | |
individuals within our society that want to do this kind of stuff, and | :16:44. | :16:52. | |
the police had to react to that. Big cities like Paris, they have had to | :16:53. | :16:55. | |
deal with these kinds of issues before and that will be something | :16:56. | :16:59. | |
that every big city across the world, across Europe, will be | :17:00. | :17:03. | |
thinking about as well. Absolutely, and I would suggest to you that it | :17:04. | :17:07. | |
is not just big cities that people have to face this problem. Terrorist | :17:08. | :17:12. | |
at this moment focusing on big cities. I think the whole of our | :17:13. | :17:17. | |
society needs to bear in mind that this is a problem, that it could | :17:18. | :17:21. | |
happen anywhere. So far it has been happening in the capital cities. | :17:22. | :17:25. | |
That may not be the case in the future. Thank you very much, Chris | :17:26. | :17:30. | |
Phillips, former head of National counter terrorism Security. We were | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
showing you just a few moments ago the live pictures from France, in | :17:36. | :17:39. | |
Paris, of course. The Champs-Elysees, in many ways back to | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
normal this morning. It is amazing how quickly that happens. We know it | :17:45. | :17:48. | |
was in complete lockdown overnight into the early hours of this | :17:49. | :17:52. | |
morning, as the investigation got under way. But as you can see, Paris | :17:53. | :17:57. | |
very quickly returning to some form of normality, although many | :17:58. | :18:02. | |
questions being asked this morning. Champs-Elysees at the centre of the | :18:03. | :18:06. | |
huge security operation, as were many landmarks. You will remember | :18:07. | :18:11. | |
last year live in Paris for most of the summer with the football, the | :18:12. | :18:16. | |
Eiffel Tower was being very closely protected, and the entire time we | :18:17. | :18:20. | |
were there, there were two snipers on the balcony with us, primed and | :18:21. | :18:25. | |
ready for a terror attack. So certainly the French authorities | :18:26. | :18:28. | |
were ready. And in terms of developments this morning, we know | :18:29. | :18:31. | |
there is an emergency Cabinet meeting going on this morning, and | :18:32. | :18:35. | |
we will keep an eye out for any developments. | :18:36. | :18:36. | |
Here is Matt with a look at the weather, and he is in Harrogate | :18:37. | :18:40. | |
He looks like he is in the living room which has gone a little bit | :18:41. | :18:50. | |
wild. Good morning, yes, it certainly has. I am at the Harrogate | :18:51. | :18:54. | |
flower show, one of the most prestigious events on the | :18:55. | :18:58. | |
horticulture Allender, and I am literally in the Green room where | :18:59. | :19:02. | |
the concept of living space has been turned inside out -- calendar. Each | :19:03. | :19:06. | |
one of these flowers has an individual water vase to keep it | :19:07. | :19:10. | |
nice and moist, keep it fresh as well, and this whole exhibit was | :19:11. | :19:14. | |
painstakingly put together. It took 36 hours, but at least, after it | :19:15. | :19:20. | |
all, you have somewhere nice and comfy to sit down, as I do, to bring | :19:21. | :19:24. | |
you the forecast this morning. Let's deal with the weekend, first of all. | :19:25. | :19:29. | |
The week ahead will be primarily dry, a few showers around and all | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
parts will see a bit of sunshine. Tomorrow will be cooler than Sunday, | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
but frost restart out there today in Scotland, quite a wet start. Lots of | :19:38. | :19:42. | |
rain in western Scotland, a damp morning across eastern areas | :19:43. | :19:45. | |
compared with yesterday. A bit of sunshine in Shetland and Orkney, and | :19:46. | :19:49. | |
north-west England fairly cloudy. A few spots of rain on the hills. Most | :19:50. | :19:53. | |
places will be dry. The eastern Pennines a lot of cloud, as there is | :19:54. | :19:58. | |
in much of eastern England. Some breaks in Central, southern and | :19:59. | :20:02. | |
eastern parts, so some waking up to morning sunshine and not to chilly, | :20:03. | :20:06. | |
either. A few spots across the south-west it'll be a little bit | :20:07. | :20:09. | |
cool, but are largely fine day ahead. The winds light of the | :20:10. | :20:12. | |
further south you are. In Wales, southern areas are brighter than | :20:13. | :20:18. | |
normal parts. The north Wales will see grey skies, and there could be | :20:19. | :20:22. | |
the odd spot of rain and drizzle, which could become more abundant | :20:23. | :20:25. | |
into the afternoon. Not a desperately wet day for anyone. A | :20:26. | :20:28. | |
little bit on the cloudy and downside, and in Northern Ireland we | :20:29. | :20:32. | |
will see the odd passing shower this morning. Most will stay dry, but | :20:33. | :20:35. | |
into the afternoon, we will see skies turning grey across northern | :20:36. | :20:38. | |
parts of the country. It is here we will start to see rain pushing, | :20:39. | :20:42. | |
because in Scotland the rain will ease off. There will be splashes in | :20:43. | :20:45. | |
the afternoon, but brighter skies. Heavy showers in Orkney and | :20:46. | :20:49. | |
Shetland, and turning cooler here. Temperatures only around six or | :20:50. | :20:53. | |
seven degrees through the afternoon. Elsewhere, a cooler date the eastern | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
Scotland and north-east England. Heading further south, temperatures | :20:58. | :21:01. | |
might be up to 18 or 19. Cooler the Saturday, as we start to see rain | :21:02. | :21:04. | |
spreading its way southwards overnight. Could be a touch of frost | :21:05. | :21:08. | |
to start the weekend across northern England and Scotland. But there will | :21:09. | :21:11. | |
be some sunshine around for all on Saturday. Eastern Scotland, eastern | :21:12. | :21:15. | |
England and Northern Ireland problem be most cloudy, the greatest risk of | :21:16. | :21:19. | |
some rain, many will be dry in southern England and Wales. | :21:20. | :21:22. | |
Temperatures into the mid-teens and part of eastern Scotland and eastern | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
England, a distinct chill in the breeze. That leads us into a chilly | :21:28. | :21:31. | |
night. There could be a touch of frost just about anywhere, important | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
for those tending to plants at the moment. But a fine day to begin | :21:36. | :21:39. | |
with. We will have sunshine for most, clouding of a little bit into | :21:40. | :21:43. | |
the afternoon and through the afternoon across parts of Scotland | :21:44. | :21:46. | |
and Northern Ireland. Outbreaks of rain in Scotland becoming more | :21:47. | :21:49. | |
expensive in the north, and as we finished the day and going to Sunday | :21:50. | :21:53. | |
night, with severe gales developing, that will push its way eastwards, to | :21:54. | :21:57. | |
take us into a cold start the next week. In the London Marathon, it | :21:58. | :22:01. | |
looks like it should be dry, and quite present conditions. | :22:02. | :22:02. | |
Temperatures starting around eight or nine degrees, up to around 15 in | :22:03. | :22:09. | |
the afternoon. And there will be lots of people relieved to hear it | :22:10. | :22:13. | |
is not so warm on Sunday, for the runners. We will be talking about | :22:14. | :22:18. | |
that with Brendan Foster, it is this 37th. And it is this retirement. He | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
will be joining us on the sofa. Adele might have grabbed | :22:23. | :22:24. | |
the headlines at the Grammy's earlier this year, with five awards, | :22:25. | :22:26. | |
but it was also a remarkable night For the past six years, | :22:27. | :22:30. | |
Jacob Collier has been posting videos of his music online, | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
all created in his room at his mum's His arrangements landed him two | :22:35. | :22:37. | |
Grammys, at the music industry's One small room. One big talent. One | :22:38. | :23:22. | |
that is now being recognised far beyond the four walls in which Jacob | :23:23. | :23:25. | |
Collier produces his remarkable sound. Tell us about this space. Why | :23:26. | :23:32. | |
is it so important? It is where I have spent most of my... I suppose | :23:33. | :23:36. | |
most of my childhood and teenage good, just exploring and jamming. -- | :23:37. | :23:46. | |
teenage hood. Jacob performs every instrument, and creates every sound | :23:47. | :24:00. | |
himself. # Don't you worry about a thing... I enjoyed the process of | :24:01. | :24:04. | |
thinking about the band, but I enjoyed the feeling of being | :24:05. | :24:07. | |
responsible for each thing. And the videos you make, issued them | :24:08. | :24:11. | |
yourself, you make them yourself in this room? Yes, I have is camera, | :24:12. | :24:19. | |
and I use my sister's iPad. This cover of a Stevie Wonder song went | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
viral, and was spotted by Quincy Jones, famous for producing and | :24:24. | :24:28. | |
writing songs for Michael Jackson. He has now become Jacob's meant all. | :24:29. | :24:37. | |
And he pops up on some of the videos, as well? Yes, I asked him to | :24:38. | :24:43. | |
make a cameo appearance, just because he wrote the song. In | :24:44. | :24:47. | |
February came international recognition, two Grammys for Best | :24:48. | :24:53. | |
vocal and instrumental arrangements. It is funny situation at the | :24:54. | :24:57. | |
Grammys, is a very unashamed introvert, it is a weird space. So | :24:58. | :25:04. | |
could you do a new BBC Breakfast theme? A bit of jazz, a bit of funk? | :25:05. | :25:15. | |
How many instruments to play? It is a difficult one. Piano, ace guitar, | :25:16. | :25:25. | |
drums and voice. Most instruments you can gain an understanding from | :25:26. | :25:29. | |
one of those five things. I try not to count them, really. Got it. | :25:30. | :25:38. | |
Nicely done. Stevie Wonder. Who needs a Stevie Wonder? You've got | :25:39. | :25:52. | |
Tim Muffett. # Welcome to BBC Breakfast... Jacob is now touring. A | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
special synthesiser allows him to perform live, but in his room, in | :25:58. | :26:01. | |
I think we should change everything writing. | :26:02. | :26:07. | |
I think we should change everything and run that instead. Not impressed | :26:08. | :26:12. | |
with the's clapping, though. All he had to do was to be as. And he did | :26:13. | :26:20. | |
Lea Michelle will be telling us how me. | :26:21. | :26:34. | |
Lea Michelle will be telling us how she has been finding her own sound | :26:35. | :26:39. | |
as a solo artist. She will be joining us on the sofa later on. We | :26:40. | :26:41. | |
won't criticise her clapping. Now, though, it is back | :26:42. | :30:01. | |
to Sally and Charlie. The time is exactly 7:30am. The main | :30:02. | :30:05. | |

in Paris in what French officials The gunman fired at a bus carrying | :30:23. | :30:25. | |
officers on the Champs-Elysees, one of the busiest areas | :30:26. | :30:29. | |
in the French capital. The French authorities say they know | :30:30. | :30:31. | |
as eyewitnesses ran for cover. The French authorities say they know | :30:32. | :30:40. | |
the identity of the gunmen but Sikuta is won't release the name | :30:41. | :30:46. | |
until they figure out if others were working with him. French media say | :30:47. | :30:54. | |
the attacker was 39-year-old man who served seven years in prison for | :30:55. | :30:58. | |
previously firing on police officers. The French President | :30:59. | :31:01. | |
Francois Hollande has said the motive was terrorism and the | :31:02. | :31:04. | |
so-called Islamic State group has claimed it was bind the shooting. | :31:05. | :31:10. | |
President Trump gave his reaction to the news of the attack. | :31:11. | :31:12. | |
Our condolences from our country to the people of France. | :31:13. | :31:15. | |
Again it's happening, it seems, I just saw it as I was walking in, | :31:16. | :31:19. | |
We have to be strong and we have to be vigilant and I've been saying | :31:20. | :31:33. | |

this morning. German prosecutors have confirmed | :31:51. | :31:51. | |
they have arrested a 28-year-old man suspected of planting a bomb | :31:52. | :31:54. | |
on the Borussia Dortmund team The man, who has German and Russian | :31:55. | :31:57. | |
nationality is accused of attempted murder, inflicting serious bodily | :31:58. | :32:01. | |
harm and causing an explosion. Last week's blasts wounded Spanish | :32:02. | :32:03. | |

death tax by critics have been The proposals would have | :32:06. | :32:10. | |
significantly increased the fees paid by some people | :32:11. | :32:14. | |
when inheriting money. Under the new rules fees would have | :32:15. | :32:16. | |
risen from just over ?150 up to ?20,000 for some estates | :32:17. | :32:20. | |
in England and Wales. Sugary drinks could be banned | :32:21. | :32:27. | |
in hospitals in England, unless the drinks suppliers | :32:28. | :32:29. | |
cut their sales over the next year. NHS England say it must set | :32:30. | :32:32. | |
a healthy example to help combat obesity, diabetes and tooth decay | :32:33. | :32:35. | |
and it can do this by banning the drinks from canteens | :32:36. | :32:39. | |
and vending machines. However the soft drinks industry | :32:40. | :32:41. | |
says it shouldn't be singled out. Prison authorities in the US state | :32:42. | :32:49. | |
of Arkansas say they've carried out their first execution | :32:50. | :32:52. | |
of an inmate for more than a decade. The lethal injection of Ledell Lee, | :32:53. | :32:55. | |
who was convicted of murder, was given the go-ahead | :32:56. | :32:58. | |
by the Supreme Court just 30 minutes before his | :32:59. | :33:01. | |
death warrant expired. It's the first of a controversial | :33:02. | :33:03. | |
series of planned executions between now and the end | :33:04. | :33:05. | |

programme, Matt has all of the weekend weather from the Harrowgate | :33:41. | :33:45. | |

football, this man, Marcus Rashford, four Manchester United, he has been | :33:56. | :33:59. | |
at the club from seven years old. He came through the academy and last | :34:00. | :34:03. | |
night scored the winning goal in the Europa League. | :34:04. | :34:06. | |
Manchester United are into the Europa League semi-finals | :34:07. | :34:08. | |
but they needed an extra-time winner to beat Anderlecht. | :34:09. | :34:11. | |
Henrik Mikhitaryan put United ahead early on but the Belgian side | :34:12. | :34:13. | |
equalised and there was real concern for United when Zlatan Ibrahimovic | :34:14. | :34:17. | |
Eventually, teenager Marcus Rashford scored the winner that | :34:18. | :34:20. | |
The former Aston Villa and England defender Ugo Ehiogu is in hospital | :34:21. | :34:31. | |
after collapsing at Tottenham's Training ground yesterday. | :34:32. | :34:32. | |
Ehiogu, seen here winning the League Cup with Villa in 1996, | :34:33. | :34:35. | |
There are reports that Ehiogu, who's 44, may have suffered | :34:36. | :34:40. | |
Andy Murray said he was pleased with his progress over the past few | :34:41. | :34:50. | |
weeks, even though he was knocked out in the third round of | :34:51. | :34:53. | |
The world number one threw away a 4-0 lead in the deciding set | :34:54. | :34:58. | |
against Spain's Albert Ramos-Vinolas. | :34:59. | :34:59. | |
It was Murray's first tournament after a month out | :35:00. | :35:02. | |
Maybe, you know, tomorrow or a day after, you know, | :35:03. | :35:08. | |
I'll be able to look back a little bit and think where I'm at now | :35:09. | :35:12. | |
from where I was, you know, a week ago and, you know, | :35:13. | :35:15. | |
my elbow felt pretty good, I served much better than I did | :35:16. | :35:18. | |
yesterday and that's only going to get better, | :35:19. | :35:21. | |
so hopefully I keep going in the right direction. | :35:22. | :35:31. | |
England head coach Eddie Jones is confident he'll uncover some | :35:32. | :35:33. | |
fresh talent on this summer's tour to Argentina. | :35:34. | :35:35. | |
With 16 of his players on Lions duty, almost half of Jones' 31-man | :35:36. | :35:39. | |
party are uncapped, including 18-year-old twins Ben and Tom Curry. | :35:40. | :35:45. | |
You don't usually get this opportunity, where you can bring | :35:46. | :35:48. | |
a bunch of young, enthusiastic and potentially good players | :35:49. | :35:51. | |
So I see this as an opportunity to really take the team forward. | :35:52. | :35:56. | |
If I can develop three or four of these guys to be better | :35:57. | :35:59. | |
than the Lions guys, it has been an enormously successful | :36:00. | :36:02. | |
Sad news from athletics. for, and I think we can. | :36:03. | :36:18. | |
Great Britain's Olympic medallist Germaine Mason has been killed | :36:19. | :36:20. | |
in a motorcycle accident in Jamaica at the age of 34. | :36:21. | :36:23. | |
Mason won high jump silver at the 2008 Games in Beijing. | :36:24. | :36:26. | |
His good friend Usain Bolt was among those first at the scene | :36:27. | :36:29. | |
Tiger Woods has had another operation to try to cure pain | :36:30. | :36:33. | |
It's the third time in 19 months that Woods has undergone surgery | :36:34. | :36:38. | |
and he's likely to be out of action for six months. | :36:39. | :36:41. | |
The 14-time major winner said: "When healed, I look forward living | :36:42. | :36:44. | |
without the pain I have been battling so long." | :36:45. | :36:50. | |
Ellie Downie is on course to become the first British gymnast to win | :36:51. | :36:53. | |
the all-around title at the European Championships. | :36:54. | :36:55. | |
She topped qualifying for tonight's final in Romania. | :36:56. | :36:57. | |
Downie, who's 17, also reached the final of every individual | :36:58. | :37:00. | |
apparatus, leading the floor and vault standings. | :37:01. | :37:18. | |
Duncan Scott has become the first Briton to swim under 48 seconds | :37:19. | :37:21. | |
Scott broke his own national record, clocking 47.9 to win gold | :37:22. | :37:25. | |
at the British Swimming Championships in Sheffield. | :37:26. | :37:27. | |
That also gave him a place at this summer's World Championships. | :37:28. | :37:30. | |
Scott won two Olympic relay silver medals at last year's | :37:31. | :37:33. | |
While Ronnie O'Sullivan continues to pull in the crowds | :37:34. | :37:37. | |
at the World Snooker Championship, it was his second-round opponent | :37:38. | :37:39. | |
Shaun Murhpy who provided the highlight yesterday. | :37:40. | :37:41. | |
Murphy produced an incredible trick shot to complete | :37:42. | :37:48. | |
That was a rare moment of brilliance, though, | :37:49. | :37:57. | |
and the five-times champion O'Sullivan opened up a 6-2 lead. | :37:58. | :37:59. | |
Their second session begins at 2:30pm this afternoon, | :38:00. | :38:02. | |
Do you know, it is one thing to do from the Crucible on BBC Two. | :38:03. | :38:08. | |
Do you know, it is one thing to do that shot, to get it right under all | :38:09. | :38:14. | |
of that pressure, audacious. Yes. A little bit of luck. I am sure he | :38:15. | :38:21. | |
would say it was all skill. Clearly he was intending to do it. He | :38:22. | :38:26. | |
thought he had no other option but to play the shot and he nailed it. | :38:27. | :38:31. | |
He has nerves of steel. They have, and imagine if you have a shaky | :38:32. | :38:36. | |
hand. We are going to stay with sport, returning to cycling. | :38:37. | :38:38. | |
She brought home gold as part of Team GB's cycling team | :38:39. | :38:41. | |
at the Rio Olympics, now Elinor Barker can add another | :38:42. | :38:43. | |
World Championship medal to her collection. | :38:44. | :38:48. | |
Last week, she earned gold for Britain at the Track Cycling | :38:49. | :38:51. | |
World Championships in Hong Kong with victory in the women's 25k | :38:52. | :38:54. | |
points race, and she also won two silver medals. | :38:55. | :38:57. | |
Where are they? In my bag, actually. You didn't think to bring them with | :38:58. | :39:08. | |
you? Congratulations. Thank you. It was a great championships for you. | :39:09. | :39:13. | |
It went really well. It started off disappointing, so close to win on | :39:14. | :39:17. | |
the first day and get silver, but it motivated me for the rest of the | :39:18. | :39:21. | |
week and worked OK in the end. You are active on social media. The | :39:22. | :39:26. | |
tweet that you put out was, not the bridesmaid any more, or something. | :39:27. | :39:31. | |
The day before I had a picture of my silver medals, talking about always | :39:32. | :39:35. | |
being a bridesmaid, then the next day I had my first gold. How | :39:36. | :39:41. | |
important was it to do that on your own? Yes, it was because as part of | :39:42. | :39:50. | |
18 for such a long you rely on other people to help succeed. It is a big | :39:51. | :39:54. | |
deal to do it on my own and under all of the pressure as well. We have | :39:55. | :39:58. | |
seen the pictures of you, that moment with the medal around your | :39:59. | :40:03. | |
neck, have you watched it? No, I haven't. I am trying to work out, | :40:04. | :40:11. | |
yes... Look at your face. There is a bit of a gulp. Describe that moment. | :40:12. | :40:17. | |
It was a really special moment. Yes. Here we go. It is going on, what is | :40:18. | :40:26. | |
going on in your head, the family, those people who have supported you, | :40:27. | :40:30. | |
what is going on? Thinking about all of those things and the preparation | :40:31. | :40:34. | |
I have done for it, and feeling happy and relieved that it went as | :40:35. | :40:37. | |
well as it did, and feeling incredibly lucky as well. It is | :40:38. | :40:41. | |
getting too you know as well, I can see it, and it is understandable | :40:42. | :40:46. | |
with the work that goes into it, the months behind the scenes when no one | :40:47. | :40:50. | |
is watching, and then you have a moment, which you are sharing with | :40:51. | :40:54. | |
the people who have supported you. Yes, again, it is really special, | :40:55. | :40:58. | |
and all of the staff were there, those who helped me get along the | :40:59. | :41:02. | |
way, so it was nice to share it with them as well. One of the things that | :41:03. | :41:07. | |
you said was you were sick of hearing other countries' national | :41:08. | :41:14. | |
and -- at them and that was why it was so overwhelming, to hear your | :41:15. | :41:19. | |
own. Yes, really special, and I have been on a lot of podiums but rarely | :41:20. | :41:26. | |
I have won one, so I am used to someone else listening to the | :41:27. | :41:28. | |
national anthem. The difference between second and first is massive, | :41:29. | :41:33. | |
because you get the jersey and you listen to your national anthem and | :41:34. | :41:38. | |
it makes it better. Shall we look at the race? Have you watched it back? | :41:39. | :41:44. | |
What is happening. He look like you are steaming ahead. I think I had | :41:45. | :41:50. | |
added the points wrong, so I thought I had to beat Sarah Hammer to win, | :41:51. | :41:56. | |
so I think I thought I had to sprint as fast as I could, but I found out | :41:57. | :42:01. | |
afterwards that we were not, and I just added it up wrong. I am | :42:02. | :42:07. | |
hesitating to make physical comments about people, but when we have | :42:08. | :42:11. | |
sports people in and you meet them for the first time... Can I | :42:12. | :42:15. | |
apologise for whatever he says? They come in different shapes and sizes | :42:16. | :42:22. | |
and you are very slight, there is hardly anything of you. Endurance | :42:23. | :42:27. | |
cyclists can look like anything at all. Really tall, small girls, very | :42:28. | :42:33. | |
nicely and girls that are not, girls that are masterly and those that are | :42:34. | :42:39. | |
slim. And with climbing or sprinting in a race, so many people can be | :42:40. | :42:43. | |
part of the sport. What is your specialisation? Track riding and the | :42:44. | :42:51. | |
sprint hard as well, at the end of a race, sprinting in a points race. I | :42:52. | :42:56. | |
think generally an all-rounder. So, did I get away with that comment? I | :42:57. | :43:01. | |
think we did, I will wait to see what everyone thinks. I think it was | :43:02. | :43:07. | |
a compliment. Lovely to see you and congratulations, thank you very | :43:08. | :43:12. | |
much. The time is 7:43am and one story is dominating the news this | :43:13. | :43:16. | |
morning, the shooting in Paris in the early evening yesterday, police | :43:17. | :43:21. | |

connection with the shooting last night of a policeman on the | :43:32. | :43:36. | |
Champs-Elysee and we will keep you up-to-date with any further | :43:37. | :43:39. | |
developments, speaking with our correspondent this morning. We know | :43:40. | :43:43. | |
that searches are ongoing east of Paris in an apartment believed to | :43:44. | :43:47. | |
belong to the gunmen who was shot dead by police last night, so that | :43:48. | :43:52. | |

the Regiment returned from Germany, supposed to reflect a little | :44:30. | :44:33. | |
calmness, the oasis of calm after the conflict or | :44:34. | :44:34. | |
It is dry and it will be for much of the day. A lot of dry weather to | :44:35. | :45:07. | |
come. If we look at the weekend forecast, largely dry, showers | :45:08. | :45:10. | |
around but all will see some sunshine. Saturday a little colder | :45:11. | :45:16. | |
Palm Sunday. It is not too chilly this morning, there is too much | :45:17. | :45:19. | |
cloud, and that is producing outbreaks of rain -- than Sunday. In | :45:20. | :45:25. | |
the east, there is rain around, providing a way to start than | :45:26. | :45:29. | |

Sunshine breaking through and then we season is to develop. Certainly | :45:41. | :45:44. | |
across southern areas compared to yesterday it will be much brighter | :45:45. | :45:49. | |
and warmer. Now, into Wales, southern areas faring better than | :45:50. | :45:53. | |
the north as far as show an ounce, northern areas have lots of cloud, | :45:54. | :45:57. | |
rain and drizzle for Snowdonia, and down for the Isle of Man. Indeed | :45:58. | :46:02. | |
into Northern Ireland, into the afternoon northern parts of Northern | :46:03. | :46:06. | |
Ireland will turn grey and a little bit wetter as well. And that is | :46:07. | :46:09. | |
because the rent in Scotland at the moment will inch southwards, so it | :46:10. | :46:14. | |
is an improving picture for Scotland with bright skies developing, | :46:15. | :46:17. | |
showers around and in Orkney and Shetland showers as well. Minguillon | :46:18. | :46:21. | |
and Wales will be dry with sunshine on the warmest in the south, but the | :46:22. | :46:25. | |
hills of north-west England, Wales and the Midlands will see spots of | :46:26. | :46:30. | |
rain every now and again. Into tonight, rain in Scotland works | :46:31. | :46:35. | |
south, turning fragmented. Many will be dry, keeping up averages in | :46:36. | :46:39. | |
southern areas tonight but northern England and four pars of Scotland | :46:40. | :46:43. | |
will have a touch of frost into tomorrow morning. -- and for parts | :46:44. | :46:46. | |
of Scotland. On Saturday, largely dry, eastern Scotland on the eastern | :46:47. | :46:51. | |
England will always have a little more cloud with a few showers. | :46:52. | :46:56. | |
Across Northern Ireland, maybe more cloud around too with the odd spot | :46:57. | :47:00. | |
of rain. Many will be dry. The best of the sunshine on Saturday across | :47:01. | :47:03. | |
parts of western England and also into Wales. Temperatures, though, | :47:04. | :47:08. | |
down on what we've seen, around 15 or 16 in the south, and chilly for | :47:09. | :47:13. | |
eastern Scotland and north-east England. That will lead to a chilly | :47:14. | :47:16. | |
night into Sunday. There could be a little frost around but as we go | :47:17. | :47:20. | |
into Sunday it looks like many will have a dry day. That is to start | :47:21. | :47:25. | |
with, at least, the best sometime in the south and further north | :47:26. | :47:27. | |
increasingly windy with gales or severe gales developing for | :47:28. | :47:31. | |
Scotland. And as it pushes through into Monday, as rain were | :47:32. | :47:34. | |
southwards, next week looking distinguish chilly, a real cold | :47:35. | :47:39. | |
filter things in the cloud and when we see some heavy and showers and it | :47:40. | :47:44. | |
could be cold enough for showers to turn to sleep and snow even to low | :47:45. | :47:48. | |
levels for northern England and Scotland too -- cold feel to things. | :47:49. | :47:52. | |
That is how it looks from the oasis of calm, so it is back to Charlie | :47:53. | :47:54. | |
This he does look very calm. Back to and Sally. Thank you. | :47:55. | :48:05. | |
This he does look very calm. Back to our main story, a policeman killed | :48:06. | :48:07. | |
on the Champs-Elysees. We can Just to bring you up-to-date with | :48:08. | :48:26. | |
the investigation, this morning the French interior Ministry says they | :48:27. | :48:29. | |
are hunting a second suspect. One man was shot dead at the same. They | :48:30. | :48:33. | |
are hunting a second suspect in connection with the fatal shooting | :48:34. | :48:38. | |
of a policeman in Paris. We know two other police officers were injured | :48:39. | :48:42. | |
in the shooting. We know also that the gunman has been identified from | :48:43. | :48:51. | |
papers in his car. French officials are yet to release his name | :48:52. | :48:55. | |
publicly, and what we are seeing is the palace where the French | :48:56. | :49:03. | |
President, Francois Hollande has been chairing an emergency Cabinet | :49:04. | :49:08. | |
meeting. The timing of this is significant because on Sunday French | :49:09. | :49:11. | |
voters go to the polls. It is the first round of the French | :49:12. | :49:14. | |
presidential elections. This is something we have been planning for, | :49:15. | :49:23. | |
and Ben was out talking to voters about the potential economic impact | :49:24. | :49:28. | |
of the vote this morning, but I imagine the story has changed | :49:29. | :49:31. | |
somewhat since the events of last night. Yes, you are absolutely | :49:32. | :49:36. | |
right. We are here because we were expecting, as you said, to talk | :49:37. | :49:40. | |
about what is a very tightly run contest. France goes to the polls on | :49:41. | :49:45. | |
Sunday to elect a new president. Very tight, four main candidates | :49:46. | :49:48. | |
really vying for the victory. But it is so tight, and the question is | :49:49. | :49:53. | |
whether events over the past 24 hours in Paris have started to | :49:54. | :49:57. | |
change that. I want to show you the front page of Le Monde, printed | :49:58. | :50:01. | |
before the attack, and it gives you a sense of the underlying issue. The | :50:02. | :50:06. | |
end of the campaign which confirms the lack of trust voters have been | :50:07. | :50:12. | |
candidates. It explains in part disenchantment of French voters when | :50:13. | :50:17. | |
it comes to those politicians. It really does underline the issue that | :50:18. | :50:20. | |
it is very difficult to call who will win. Doctor Murray is a | :50:21. | :50:25. | |
political professor. Good morning. That is the issue. It is really too | :50:26. | :50:30. | |
tight to call, even before the events in Paris of the last 24 | :50:31. | :50:34. | |
hours. Yes, this has been an absolutely extraordinary election. | :50:35. | :50:39. | |
In the context of a flagging economy and a series of terrorist attacks, | :50:40. | :50:43. | |
we have seen many front runners get knocked out early, a Socialist | :50:44. | :50:47. | |
candidate who is too far to the left, a mainstream right-wing | :50:48. | :50:52. | |
candidate who is mired in scandal, a hard left candidate, and Marine Le | :50:53. | :50:57. | |
Pen on the far right. On the final day of campaigning we have four | :50:58. | :51:02. | |
candidates within the margin of error, and 30% of voters do not know | :51:03. | :51:09. | |
who they will vote for. Given it is balanced so finally, events like the | :51:10. | :51:12. | |
attack in Paris last night really could change the outcome of this | :51:13. | :51:17. | |
election? I am not sure they will have much impact, to be honest. | :51:18. | :51:20. | |
Because unfortunately we have already had a number of terror | :51:21. | :51:24. | |
attacks in France, and to the extent they were going to change anyone's | :51:25. | :51:29. | |
vote, I think they already have done. So the big question about | :51:30. | :51:33. | |
whether it will change voters think when they get to the ballot box. | :51:34. | :51:37. | |
Let's speak to two voters. Your reaction when you heard the news | :51:38. | :51:41. | |
last night? Anger and sadness, obviously. I was watching the | :51:42. | :51:47. | |
candidates, who had all 15 minutes for a last shot before the round on | :51:48. | :51:56. | |
Sunday. But it won't have more impact on me. It is a terror attack, | :51:57. | :52:08. | |
and we should not give those who make those decisions more power than | :52:09. | :52:12. | |
they already have, on herding people in the street. And does it change | :52:13. | :52:17. | |
how you vote? Does it change your perception about who was a stronger | :52:18. | :52:20. | |
candidate, to fend off terror attacks, and who can take a harder | :52:21. | :52:27. | |
line on security? No, I mean, France is under a state of emergency. We | :52:28. | :52:30. | |
knew it would happen at some point. It had happened. I wanted to vote | :52:31. | :52:35. | |
for the centrist candidate Emmanuel Macron, and I still believe he is | :52:36. | :52:39. | |
the right person. It is sad, but French people want to be together. | :52:40. | :52:47. | |
And they want change, they don't know which change, but this attack, | :52:48. | :52:58. | |
which is a loner on the Champs-Elysees, which is very | :52:59. | :53:03. | |
eventful, it still doesn't change the election. Such a tight election, | :53:04. | :53:08. | |
all those candidates vying for victory, as we said, on Sunday. To | :53:09. | :53:12. | |
close the call, absolutely. We often talk about elections being too close | :53:13. | :53:19. | |
to call, but this really is, as we said, within the margin of error. | :53:20. | :53:23. | |
Events over the past 24 hours could weigh on that position, but as you | :53:24. | :53:27. | |
heard from voters here, not going to sway their vote. I will see you | :53:28. | :53:29. | |
seen. The 37th London Marathon gets | :53:30. | :53:31. | |
under way this weekend, but for viewers of the TV coverage, | :53:32. | :53:34. | |
it will be the end of an era. Commentator Brendan Foster | :53:35. | :53:38. | |
has announced he is to A former Olympic and athletic | :53:39. | :53:40. | |

in the programme, but for now, he has picked out some | :53:47. | :53:49. | |
of his favourite marathon moments Beardsley of America ties with | :53:50. | :53:52. | |

Didn't see much of Brendan and that, but we will be talking about his own | :55:32. | :55:59. | |
career as well. The great North run, the London Marathon as it is. Things | :56:00. | :56:04. | |
happen in the commentary box, it happens sometimes, especially during | :56:05. | :56:09. | |
the marathon. Will you ask in one of those questions I am nervous about? | :56:10. | :56:12. | |
It will be lovely. Plenty more on our website | :56:13. | :56:13. | |

back! The gunman began firing at a bus | :00:15. | :00:19. | |

officers on the Champs-Elysees, one of the busiest areas | :02:01. | :02:08. | |
in the French capital. Shortly afterwards he was shot dead | :02:09. | :02:10. | |
as eyewitnesses ran for cover. Two other police | :02:11. | :02:13. | |

were heading out to dinner. TRANSLATION: I was | :02:51. | :02:54. | |

he shot six times. TRANSLATION: We were moving | :03:02. | :03:03. | |
towards a car and then I heard two or three shots, | :03:04. | :03:10. | |
but I didn't realise And, well, then there | :03:11. | :03:12. | |
was just panic all around. Everyone started running | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
down the Champs-Elysee. Just by instinct, | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
I didn't stop to work out what was going on, | :03:20. | :03:21. | |
I just ran too. The Champs-Elysee was already full | :03:22. | :03:23. | |
of police officers guarding against an attack on civilians, | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
but it seems that this shooting Late into the night here the police | :03:28. | :03:29. | |
are still stopping people from approaching the scene | :03:30. | :03:36. | |
of the attack just a block And everyone around here wants | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
to know exactly what happened. The police want to make sure that | :03:41. | :03:46. | |
all nearby streets are now safe. They searched everyone coming out | :03:47. | :03:52. | |
of a nearby building. This country will now investigate | :03:53. | :03:59. | |
the shooting and make sure that its plans for Sunday's | :04:00. | :04:02. | |
presidential election are in place. We can speak to James now, | :04:03. | :04:13. | |
he is in our Paris bureau. First of all, we can see from your | :04:14. | :04:22. | |
report last night, you must have been very close to where the attack | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
happened. What did you yourself see? My colleagues and I were walking | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
towards the Champs-Elysees on the same street that you saw me do that | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
report from, and we saw a group of people running towards us, young | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
women, and one of them said there was a man with a gun. We really | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
weren't sure what was happening, but we retreated along with them, people | :04:45. | :04:50. | |
hid in the lobby of a Hotel, and then we soon saw police officers and | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
heard a helicopter and within a few minutes it became clear there was | :04:54. | :05:04. | |
something very, very serious going on. Anyone else in the nearby | :05:05. | :05:06. | |
facility I think would have had a very similar experience. The reason | :05:07. | :05:08. | |
-- Christians would have thought, it is this again, they are going | :05:09. | :05:10. | |
through this again. There has been an update from the | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
French security services and this investigation is now widening -- the | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
Corinthians would have thought it is this again. | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
Yes, Belgian authorities have been in touch to talk about someone who | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
possibly might have been connected to the attacker and the French | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
authorities are looking to do that, they will want to look into whether | :05:32. | :05:36. | |
this attacker, a 39-year-old man we think was known to intelligence | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
services, had a network, was part of a group of people, or whether he was | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
working on his own. In 2005 he had a conviction for attempting to kill | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
police officers. We are just days away from the next | :05:49. | :05:54. | |
presidential election -- the next round of the presidential election, | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
what impact might this have? Hard to tell because we will not get | :05:59. | :06:04. | |
any more opinion polls, some of the candidates have cancelled their | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
campaign rallies, it is difficult to tell if it will change anybody's | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
mind. In some ways, attacks, violent terrorism, were already built into | :06:14. | :06:16. | |
people's calculations because everything that has happened in | :06:17. | :06:19. | |
Paris in the last two years. James, thank you very much indeed, | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
James Reynolds, who was very close to where the attack happened, | :06:25. | :06:31. | |
speaking to us from our pureed. -- from our Paris office. | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
We will be getting the latest on the ground in Paris | :06:36. | :06:37. | |
German prosecutors have confirmed they have arrested a 28-year-old man | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
suspected of bombing the Borussia Dortmund | :06:41. | :06:42. | |
The man, who has German and Russian nationality, is accused | :06:43. | :06:45. | |
of attempted murder, inflicting serious bodily harm | :06:46. | :06:47. | |
Investigators believe the suspect had hoped it -- had hoped to benefit | :06:48. | :06:57. | |
from a drop in shares of the club. Last week's blasts wounded Spanish | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
defender Marc Bartra. Let's get the latest | :07:01. | :07:02. | |
on the election campaign back here. This morning we're hearing that | :07:03. | :07:04. | |
Government plans described by critics as a 'stealth death tax' | :07:05. | :07:06. | |
have been scrapped by The proposals involved increasing | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
the fees paid by some people Our political correspondent | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
Chris Mason can tell us more. Just explain these latest twists. | :07:13. | :07:22. | |
Good morning to you, this is to do with what is known as probate, legal | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
fees that are charged on the estate of someone who has died. Up until | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
now there has been a flat rate fee of about ?150, but the Government's | :07:33. | :07:38. | |
plan was to introduce a scale of the starting from nothing from the | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
smallest estates all the way up to ?20,000 for the biggest estates, and | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
some people were worried they were going to get clobbered by what was | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
seen by some as a death tax, the rules could have kicked in as soon | :07:51. | :07:53. | |
as next month. Now the Government has said they will not | :07:54. | :08:17. | |
happen. Why? They have simply run out of time, Parliament will be | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
packing its bags soon as politicians head to knock on doors as opposed to | :08:22. | :08:23. | |
debate in Westminster. There was not time to get the legislation through, | :08:24. | :08:26. | |
so the whole thing disappears for now. The intriguing thing will be | :08:27. | :08:28. | |
whether it reappears on page 75 of the election manifesto in the | :08:29. | :08:30. | |
future? We don't know that yet. Elsewhere, Jeremy Corbyn, Labour | :08:31. | :08:33. | |
Leader, will be in the west of England and South Wales talking | :08:34. | :08:35. | |
about class sizes, he says too many private school children -- too many | :08:36. | :08:37. | |
primary school children in England are taught in class sizes that are | :08:38. | :08:40. | |
too big. We don't know how Labour would deal with the problem. | :08:41. | :08:42. | |
Conservatives point to the situation in Wales, where Labour is in | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
Government, saying that infant class sizes there are climbing. They | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
acknowledge there is more to do on class sizes in England, the | :08:51. | :08:53. | |
Conservatives say they are not complacent about that. | :08:54. | :08:53. | |
Thank you, Chris. Sugary drinks could be banned | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
in hospitals in England, unless the drinks suppliers | :08:59. | :09:00. | |
cut their sales over the next year. NHS England say it must | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
set a healthy example to help combat obesity, | :09:04. | :09:05. | |
diabetes and tooth decay and it can do this by banning the drinks | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
from canteens and vending machines. However the soft drinks industry | :09:09. | :09:10. | |
says it shouldn't be singled out. Teenage hackers do it mostly to show | :09:11. | :09:13. | |
off and because they don't think they'll get caught, | :09:14. | :09:16. | |

The Girl From Aleppo - Nujeen Mustafa was one of more | :10:29. | :10:30. | |
than 1 million people who crossed into Europe at the height | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
of the migrant crisis in 2015. Like many, she was fleeing | :10:34. | :10:35. | |
the conflict in Syria but her story is unique - | :10:36. | :10:37. | |
born with cerebal palsy, Nujeen made the 3500-mile | :10:38. | :10:39. | |
journey by wheelchair, She first gained attention | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
when the BBC's Fergal Keane met her in September 2015 on a dusty | :10:44. | :10:53. | |
road at a border Disabled from birth, | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
she cannot walk, and made the dangerous crossing | :10:57. | :11:05. | |
from Turkey last week. But a child who taught herself | :11:06. | :11:08. | |
English by watching soap operas sees this journey as a challenge | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
to be met. You should fight to get | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
what you want in this world, so... And on she travelled | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
across European borders. I am a prisoner, so, | :11:20. | :11:25. | |
OK, it's not good. Until Germany, and a reunion | :11:26. | :11:36. | |
with a beloved brother 2000 miles from Aleppo | :11:37. | :11:38. | |
and the war... On her way to school, | :11:39. | :11:51. | |
speaking fluent German, This is Nujeen a year | :11:52. | :11:57. | |
after arriving in European shores. But, like many Syrians, | :11:58. | :12:04. | |
Nujeen longs for home. Nujeen Mustafa speaking | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
there to Fergal Keane. This morning she joins us | :12:08. | :12:27. | |
from Exeter alongside the journalist and author Christina Lamb, | :12:28. | :12:37. | |
who has co-written Nujeen's You are here with us in England, can | :12:38. | :12:46. | |
I ask how you are enjoying your time here in the UK so far? Well, it is | :12:47. | :12:56. | |
freezing now! So not very good now! But good morning to you | :12:57. | :13:04. | |
nevertheless. It has been nice. The UK is not disappointing. Well, we | :13:05. | :13:10. | |
saw those pictures of you from two years ago now. I think probably lots | :13:11. | :13:16. | |
of people at home want to know, what is life like for you now? Is it | :13:17. | :13:24. | |
better for you? Yes, I consider my experience is extremely lucky. I | :13:25. | :13:33. | |
have a home, a school, I go to school for eight hours a day with | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
different subjects and my classmates. Everything you have | :13:38. | :13:45. | |
here. So I consider myself extremely lucky. You could say that the story | :13:46. | :13:54. | |
had its happy ending. That is lovely to hear. Before you left, when you | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
were at home, you had to stay in your apartment most of the time | :14:00. | :14:03. | |
because your apartment, there were only stares up and down. De Gea | :14:04. | :14:08. | |
dream of the life you are living now, and what did you imagine it | :14:09. | :14:13. | |
would be like -- did you dream of the life you are living? Does it | :14:14. | :14:19. | |
match up to your dream? Definitely I did, but in a different language! It | :14:20. | :14:32. | |
was something that I dream of. Because I was different I had to | :14:33. | :14:39. | |
fight to prove myself, so it has been a constant fight to divide | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
people's expectations. So here I am. I am happy to have what I have now | :14:45. | :14:51. | |
because I know how life is without it. That is absolutely brilliant to | :14:52. | :14:56. | |
hear. You are sitting next to Christina Lamb, who has been | :14:57. | :15:00. | |
important in your life recently, I know. Christina, you helped write | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
the book that is out at the moment, how did you first hear about this | :15:05. | :15:09. | |
story, and how did you even managed to track Nujeen | :15:10. | :15:14. | |
I was covering the refugee story for the last couple of years. It was the | :15:15. | :15:21. | |
biggest crisis in Europe. I was just fascinated by how people made the | :15:22. | :15:26. | |
journey, how difficult it was. Also, it seemed to me that people back | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
home, the numbers were so big, that they were just seeing it as this big | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
mass of people, not really relating to individual stories of people. So, | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
I have been looking for somebody that I could tell the story through. | :15:42. | :15:49. | |
One day, the very day that Hungary closed its border to refugees and | :15:50. | :15:53. | |
built this big fans, I was on the Hungarian side. Nujeen was on the | :15:54. | :15:59. | |
other side, the Serbian side, where Fergal interviewed her. Those of us | :16:00. | :16:02. | |
on the Hungarian side heard about this refugee in a wheelchair. We | :16:03. | :16:09. | |
hadn't seen anybody in a wheelchair. She spoke fluent English and wanted | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
to be an astronaut. We were fascinated and wanted to find her. | :16:14. | :16:16. | |
One of the good things about the refugee crisis for journalists was | :16:17. | :16:21. | |
to be a refugee you needed a smartphone to find out where to go, | :16:22. | :16:24. | |
so it was quite easy to make contact with people. One of the things you | :16:25. | :16:30. | |
were surprised by, you expected her to be allowed through because of her | :16:31. | :16:33. | |
wheelchair, but that was not the case, it was not that easy? No. The | :16:34. | :16:39. | |
Hungarians were quite brutal, they did not let people through. Again, | :16:40. | :16:44. | |
at the moment, we are seeing them putting people in shipping | :16:45. | :16:47. | |
containers. In a way, that is one of the things we wanted to show in the | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
book, that the refugee crisis, you sort of saw the worst and best of | :16:52. | :16:57. | |
humanity. You saw governments closing doors to people, but you | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
also saw local people being incredibly compassionate, coming up | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
with clothes, food and hot drinks. There was not anything set up for | :17:06. | :17:10. | |
the refugees coming. Nujeen, one of the hardest things for you and | :17:11. | :17:14. | |
people in your situation is being separated from families, being away | :17:15. | :17:16. | |
from the people that you were brought up with, away from the | :17:17. | :17:20. | |
people that you love. But it must be wonderful for you now, to have been | :17:21. | :17:24. | |
reunited with your brother? Definitely. I mean, he is still | :17:25. | :17:30. | |
annoying me all the time. I missed that, when he was away. But I still | :17:31. | :17:37. | |
miss my parents. I mean, I feel I have grown up too much in the last | :17:38. | :17:44. | |
two years. I am no longer at home, and that is sad, you kind of realise | :17:45. | :17:48. | |
it is time to grow up. Face the real world. We heard that years ago you | :17:49. | :17:55. | |
dreamt of becoming an astronaut, is that still your dream, or have your | :17:56. | :18:02. | |
dreams changed? Well, definitely. I still dream of becoming an | :18:03. | :18:09. | |
astronaut, I still dream of having no boundaries, nothing binding to | :18:10. | :18:18. | |
the Earth. I still dream of investigating whether we are alone | :18:19. | :18:24. | |
or not. Nujeen and Christina, thank you both very much indeed for your | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
time. Nujeen, good luck on the rest of your trip. The book, The Girl | :18:29. | :18:36. | |
From Aleppo, is out now. Something tells me that if that young lady | :18:37. | :18:39. | |
makes the decision to do something, it is going to happen. You saw | :18:40. | :18:42. | |
pictures of her and her brother, what we didn't mention was that the | :18:43. | :18:46. | |
lady pushing her wheelchair was her sister. Her sister brought her here, | :18:47. | :18:49. | |
and her brother met her in Germany. An incredible story. | :18:50. | :18:52. | |
You're watching Breakfast from BBC News. | :18:53. | :18:54. | |
French police say they know the identity of the man who shot | :18:55. | :19:00. | |
dead a policeman and wounded two others on the Champs Elysees | :19:01. | :19:02. | |
Sugar-filled soft drinks could be banned from hospitals as part | :19:03. | :19:07. | |
of a new plan from NHS England to tackle diabetes, | :19:08. | :19:09. | |
Let's take a look at the weather, and Matt is in Harrogate | :19:10. | :19:19. | |
You have been showing us a rather beautiful flower. What is this? | :19:20. | :19:31. | |
Good morning, we are at the Harrogate flower show, and I am in | :19:32. | :19:39. | |
the wonders of the Brain Garden. This sphere represents the flow of | :19:40. | :19:45. | |
ideas and thoughts from the brain around the body. This garden was | :19:46. | :19:51. | |
designed by the Yorkshire Brain Research Centre in Leeds, | :19:52. | :19:53. | |
celebrating architecture and the wonders of the brain. It is a | :19:54. | :19:58. | |
stunning sight, as many of the exhibits here. Over 100,000 people | :19:59. | :20:02. | |
are respected over the next few days and 1000 exhibitors as well. You | :20:03. | :20:05. | |
will want good weather if you are heading here. I think most of the | :20:06. | :20:08. | |
time it will be. The forecast for much of the country will be | :20:09. | :20:12. | |
primarily dry. There will be a few showers here and there. Some | :20:13. | :20:15. | |
gardeners desperately need the rain at the moment. There will be | :20:16. | :20:19. | |
sunshine for those that not. Not much sunshine across parts of | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
mainland Scotland, particularly in the north. Heavy rain pushing | :20:24. | :20:26. | |
southwards. The sunshine you have in the south-east will fade away. The | :20:27. | :20:29. | |
same for north-east England for a time. Plenty of cloud across England | :20:30. | :20:33. | |
and Wales to begin with. Patchy rain and drizzle on the western side of | :20:34. | :20:37. | |
the Pennines. Most to start the day dry. Not a huge amount of course. | :20:38. | :20:43. | |
Temperatures, because of the cloud, starting the day around eight or 10 | :20:44. | :20:47. | |
degrees. Where we do have a few breaks across Devon and Cornwall, | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
part of south Wales, edit on the chilly side. Sunshine quickly | :20:53. | :20:56. | |
warming things up. South mostly bright. Across North Wales, grey | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
skies and some spots of rain or drizzle, mainly across Snowdonia. It | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
might be down in Northern Ireland and the Isle of Man, with passing | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
showers. Many will avoid them. For the northern half of Northern | :21:11. | :21:12. | |
Ireland, into the afternoon, the cloud will thicken and we will see | :21:13. | :21:16. | |
more in the way of rain developing. It is because of the rain that we | :21:17. | :21:20. | |
have in Scotland, edging its way southwards, it means if you start | :21:21. | :21:23. | |
work in Scotland, things will improve and it will turn brighter | :21:24. | :21:27. | |
from the north, although chilly with sunshine and showers in Orkney and | :21:28. | :21:30. | |
Shetland 's. Some showers in England and Wales, mainly on the hills. Most | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
will be dry and a bit more in a way of sunshine around. Lifting | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
temperatures in the south, 18 or 19 degrees, 66 Fahrenheit. Into | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
tomorrow, the rain in Scotland and Northern Ireland pushes southwards. | :21:45. | :21:46. | |
A fragmenting rain band. Some showers across eastern areas to take | :21:47. | :21:50. | |
us into tomorrow morning. Where skies clear, into northern Scotland, | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
a touch of frost to stop the weekend. The weekend gets off to | :21:55. | :21:58. | |
find subtle. If you are looking for dry weather, most places will be | :21:59. | :22:02. | |
dry. Northern Scotland, eastern England and Northern Ireland seeing | :22:03. | :22:05. | |
something cloudier and a few showers, sunniest in Wales. Feeling | :22:06. | :22:11. | |
much, much chillier in eastern Scotland and northern England. It is | :22:12. | :22:15. | |
temporary, it will lead us into a cold night with a touch of frost. | :22:16. | :22:19. | |
Sunday, by and large, will be milder again. Most places dry, through the | :22:20. | :22:25. | |
day we will see the cloud and wind increasing across parts of Scotland. | :22:26. | :22:28. | |
Outbreaks of rain becoming extensive in the far north. We finish the day | :22:29. | :22:32. | |
with potentially some severe gales. They continue into the night, rain | :22:33. | :22:36. | |
working southwards across the country. That will take us into a | :22:37. | :22:40. | |
cold start into next week. Even a bit wintry in places, particularly | :22:41. | :22:44. | |
across the North. Don't forget, we have the London Marathon this began. | :22:45. | :22:47. | |
If you are running, pleasant conditions, perfect conditions. -- | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
London Marathon is this weekend. Temperatures are starting around 80 | :22:54. | :23:00. | |
degrees in the morning, 4115 if you are still going in the afternoon. -- | :23:01. | :23:02. | |
eight degrees. Adele might have grabbed the | :23:03. | :23:12. | |
headlines at the American music awards, the Grammys. She picked up | :23:13. | :23:15. | |
five awards earlier this year. It was also a remarkable night for | :23:16. | :23:19. | |
another young British musician. For the last six years, Jacob Collie has | :23:20. | :23:23. | |
been posting videos of his music online, all created in a room in his | :23:24. | :23:26. | |
mother's house in north London. His arrangements landed him two Grammys | :23:27. | :23:32. | |
in LA. Tim Muffett went to meet him and hear his extra story. | :23:33. | :23:41. | |
One that is now being recognised far beyond the four walls | :23:42. | :24:04. | |
in which Jacob Collier produces his remarkable sound. | :24:05. | :24:09. | |
It is where I have spent most of my - I suppose most | :24:10. | :24:15. | |
of my childhood and teenagehood, just exploring and jamming. | :24:16. | :24:21. | |
Jacob performs every instrument, and creates every sound himself. | :24:22. | :24:33. | |
I enjoy the process of imaginging the band, but I enjoy | :24:34. | :24:50. | |
the feeling of being responsible for each thing. | :24:51. | :24:52. | |
And the videos you make, you shoot them yourself, | :24:53. | :24:54. | |
you make them yourself, in this room? | :24:55. | :24:56. | |
Yes, I have this camera, and I use my sister's iPad. | :24:57. | :25:01. | |
This cover of a Stevie Wonder song went viral, and was spotted | :25:02. | :25:03. | |
by Quincy Jones, famous for producing and writing songs | :25:04. | :25:06. | |
And he pops up on some of the videos, as well? | :25:07. | :25:17. | |
Yes, I asked him to make a cameo appearance, just | :25:18. | :25:20. | |
In February came international recognition, two Grammys | :25:21. | :25:27. | |
for Best Vocal and Instrumental Arrangements. | :25:28. | :25:33. | |
It is funny situation at the Grammys. | :25:34. | :25:35. | |
As a very unashamed introvert, it is a weird space. | :25:36. | :25:42. | |
So could you do a new BBC Breakfast theme? | :25:43. | :25:44. | |
I'll give it a go, let's get started. | :25:45. | :25:58. | |
Most instruments you can gain an understanding from one | :25:59. | :26:08. | |
Stevie Wonder - who needs a Stevie Wonder? | :26:09. | :26:25. | |
A special synthesiser allows him to perform live. | :26:26. | :26:40. | |
The ideas keep coming. Tim Muffett off | :26:41. | :26:47. | |
# BBC Breakfast... We should have a jungle. We don't | :26:48. | :26:59. | |
really have a jingle on news? We do, we have the drums. | :27:00. | :30:20. | |
Plenty more on our website at the usual address. | :30:21. | :30:22. | |
Now though it's back to Sally and Charlie. | :30:23. | :30:24. | |
A policeman's been shot dead in Paris in what French officials | :30:25. | :30:36. | |
The gunman fired at a bus carrying officers on the Champs Elysees, | :30:37. | :30:40. | |
one of the busiest areas in the French capital. | :30:41. | :30:42. | |
Shortly afterwards he was shot dead as eyewitnesses ran for cover. | :30:43. | :30:46. | |
French authorities say they know the identity of the gunman | :30:47. | :30:48. | |
but prosecutors will not release the name until they know | :30:49. | :30:50. | |
The car used by the suspect is being investigated while a search | :30:51. | :30:57. | |
is also under way at his home in the east of the city. | :30:58. | :31:00. | |
French media say the attacker was a 39 -year-old who served | :31:01. | :31:02. | |
several years in prison for previously firing | :31:03. | :31:04. | |
The French President - Francois Hollande - | :31:05. | :31:10. | |
has said he's convinced the motive is terrorism. | :31:11. | :31:14. | |
The so-called Islamic State group has claimed it was | :31:15. | :31:16. | |
Now, some of the main candidates have put a halt to their campaigns | :31:17. | :31:34. | |
as investigations continue. The BBC's correspondent is in Paris | :31:35. | :31:41. | |
for us this morning. We can see the location behind you, busy once again | :31:42. | :31:44. | |
but it was on lockdown for many hours overnight. Bring us up-to-date | :31:45. | :31:49. | |
with any developments throughout the morning. | :31:50. | :31:55. | |
Yes, Charlie, as you will see, Parisian life on a Friday morning | :31:56. | :31:59. | |
looks normal behind me, that nightmare round about, notorious is | :32:00. | :32:05. | |
back with crammed with traffic, and on the other side, effectively from | :32:06. | :32:15. | |
where we are, the back of the a c is. It is fully open and the Metro | :32:16. | :32:19. | |
stranges round Paris are open. Parisians returning to what they do | :32:20. | :32:22. | |
every day with that knowledge, of course, of what happens last night. | :32:23. | :32:27. | |
Can you imagine it was right in the middle of the final Presidential | :32:28. | :32:33. | |
debate live on prime time TV. The candidates were talking about issue, | :32:34. | :32:37. | |
Marine Le Pen had been talking about security in Paris, worrying about | :32:38. | :32:41. | |
her children going out into the city when this happened. Everybody now is | :32:42. | :32:45. | |
speculating on what the political impact might be of France's latest | :32:46. | :32:50. | |

Government plans to described a a stealth death tax by critics have | :33:56. | :33:59. | |
been scrapped by the Ministry of Justice. The proposals would have | :34:00. | :34:04. | |
increased the fees paid by some people, and inin inheriting money | :34:05. | :34:09. | |
fees would have risen from just over 150 up to 20,000 for some estates in | :34:10. | :34:13. | |

This man Marcus Rashford, what an accomplished performance for him | :36:07. | :36:11. | |
last night. I wonder with Ibrahimovic possibly out injured, | :36:12. | :36:15. | |
Wayne Rooney out of favour, could he be the man that becomes Manchester | :36:16. | :36:20. | |
United star striker? Yes, they are into the Europa League semifinals. | :36:21. | :36:24. | |
But they needed an extra time winner. | :36:25. | :36:28. | |
Henrik Mikhitaryan put United ahead early | :36:29. | :36:30. | |
on, but the Belgian side equalised, and there was real concern | :36:31. | :36:32. | |
for United when Zlatan Ibrahimovic suffered a nasty knee injury. | :36:33. | :36:35. | |

It was Murray's first tournament after a month out | :37:16. | :37:17. | |
Maybe you know, tomorrow or the day after, you know, I will be able to | :37:18. | :37:34. | |
look back a bit and think where I'm add now, from where I was a week | :37:35. | :37:40. | |
ago, and you know my elbow felt pretty good. I served is better than | :37:41. | :37:44. | |
I did yesterday, and that's only going to get better, so hopefully I | :37:45. | :37:47. | |
keep going in the right direction. Great Britain's Olympic medallist | :37:48. | :37:52. | |
Germaine Mason has been killed in a motorcycle accident in Jamaica, | :37:53. | :37:54. | |
at the age of 34. Mason won high jump silver | :37:55. | :37:57. | |
at the 2008 Games in Beijing. His good friend Usain Bolt | :37:58. | :38:00. | |

clocking 47.9 to win gold at the British Swimming | :38:20. | :38:23. | |
Championships in Sheffield. That also gave him a place at this | :38:24. | :38:25. | |
summer's World Championships. Scott won two Olympic relay silver | :38:26. | :38:27. | |

to pull in the crowds at the World Snooker Championship, | :38:39. | :38:40. | |
it was his second-round opponent Shaun Murhpy who provided | :38:41. | :38:42. | |
the highlight yesterday. Murphy produced an incredible | :38:43. | :38:44. | |
trick shot to complete That was a rare moment | :38:45. | :38:46. | |
of brilliance, though, and the five-time champion | :38:47. | :38:49. | |
O'Sullivan opened up a 6-2 lead. Their second session begins | :38:50. | :38:51. | |
at 2.30 this afternoon - and there's coverage | :38:52. | :38:53. | |
from the Crucible on BBC Two. What a shot that was. It worked | :38:54. | :39:15. | |
well. Nerves of steel. It was all planned. | :39:16. | :39:18. | |
Anyone who's watched BBC coverage of the London Marathon since it | :39:19. | :39:21. | |
began 36 years ago will be familiar with the voice | :39:22. | :39:23. | |
A former Olympian and athletic champion turned commentator, | :39:24. | :39:26. | |
he's become a fixture of sporting events for decades. | :39:27. | :39:28. | |
Brendan has announced he'll be retiring in the summer. | :39:29. | :39:34. | |
of his favourite moments from marathons over the years. | :39:35. | :39:43. | |
You are bright and sparky early in the morning. You have to be careful. | :39:44. | :39:50. | |
You have to go before they hook you up. Why have you made the decision | :39:51. | :39:54. | |
to retire? I have loved every minute of working for the BBC, doing the | :39:55. | :39:59. | |
commentaries on the Olympics and the London Marathon and all round the | :40:00. | :40:04. | |
world, and you know, I had such a good time in, in London 2012, I | :40:05. | :40:09. | |
thought maybe this is is a good time to go, because I felt I would want | :40:10. | :40:15. | |
to go before they kicked me off, you know, but I thought Mo Farah was so | :40:16. | :40:19. | |
good in London, I thought I would give it a few more year, Mo is going | :40:20. | :40:25. | |
to run his last race in 2017 on the track. It will be a big event. I am | :40:26. | :40:29. | |
delighted to be part of it, looking forward to it, then I will step off | :40:30. | :40:33. | |
and let others of take the stage. So you aren't finishing after the | :40:34. | :40:36. | |
marathon, you are going to go on to the end of August? Yes, the London | :40:37. | :40:42. | |
Marathon, I have done them all, starting from day one when we didn't | :40:43. | :40:46. | |
know what it was going to be like. We sat there, 6,000 people turned up | :40:47. | :40:50. | |
on the start line. We had never seen 6,000 people in an event in our | :40:51. | :40:55. | |
lifetime, when I was a runner, runners were geeks and now days it | :40:56. | :41:00. | |
is a common thing. And to see the long marathon to go from where it is | :41:01. | :41:07. | |
now has been a joy, and for me, it is one of my best favourite days of | :41:08. | :41:12. | |
the year and a great one to step out on. Do you forget when you see the | :41:13. | :41:16. | |
crowds and the scale, how small it was when it began? You have picked | :41:17. | :41:19. | |
out some special mosts for us. You have picked out some | :41:20. | :41:24. | |
special mosts for us. DAVID COLEMAN: The hand | :41:25. | :41:26. | |
of friendship, after And Beardsley of America ties | :41:27. | :41:30. | |

he's had a great run today. Kevin Foster's on his last | :41:43. | :41:45. | |
legs there, you can see the difference between the winner | :41:46. | :41:47. | |
and the second-placer. What a triumph this is for Gateshead | :41:48. | :41:49. | |

you can set yourself goals, it doesn't matter if it | :42:15. | :42:16. | |
seems a bit impossible. Well, I think she could be the star | :42:17. | :42:20. | |
of this year's London Marathon - STEVE CRAM: It's going to be oh, | :42:21. | :42:23. | |
so close to the record. Two hours five minutes and 42 | :42:24. | :42:29. | |
seconds is the time that you need Khannouchi wins it, it's a world | :42:30. | :42:34. | |
record for the American. Paula Radcliffe comes home to win | :42:35. | :42:38. | |
the Flora London Marathon, Today, the debutante came good, | :42:39. | :42:41. | |
came fantastic, and ran We can hear when you talk about the | :42:42. | :43:14. | |
finish line of those races you are as proud of the people that are | :43:15. | :43:19. | |
running as you are of your own achievements I imagine. That is true | :43:20. | :43:24. | |
I know what they are going through, I know that they did, I tried to do | :43:25. | :43:29. | |
what Mo Farah did and win two gold medals. Tried to win races and won | :43:30. | :43:33. | |
some and lost some, but yes, you live with it. You know, the other | :43:34. | :43:39. | |
thing is to have the opportunity to transmit your thoughts and ideas | :43:40. | :43:45. | |
into the home of the British public, the British sporting public, who are | :43:46. | :43:49. | |
the most knowledgeable of all is an honour, it is better sitting at home | :43:50. | :43:53. | |
explaining to your wife and kids this is what is happen, it is nice | :43:54. | :43:57. | |
to talk to other people, and hopefully my passion has come across | :43:58. | :44:02. | |
in what I do. So you have done some great commentary, do you want to | :44:03. | :44:05. | |
talk us through the pictures behind us. Firstly the picture on the far | :44:06. | :44:10. | |
left. This looks like a footballer from the 7 o 0s. It was the '70s. It | :44:11. | :44:16. | |
was a run refer the '70s. Wearing a fashionable frack suit with hair | :44:17. | :44:22. | |
which... Very fashionable. My barber wasn't happy with. Me running in the | :44:23. | :44:26. | |
Olympic Games. Let us move on quickly, what is happening in that | :44:27. | :44:31. | |
moment in time? Which moment? In the #3ic chur in the middle. It looks | :44:32. | :44:35. | |
like agony. If I am trying to work out which race it was, it might have | :44:36. | :44:40. | |
been the Commonwealth Games, and it might have been me lapping that guy. | :44:41. | :44:45. | |
Ah. Because I don't recognise him. He is an Australian and you know, | :44:46. | :44:50. | |
that... Can't have matters that much, you ran past him. That is the | :44:51. | :44:55. | |
main thing. There is a strange picture with grey hair, I don't know | :44:56. | :45:00. | |
who that is! That is... You are live right there. I want to talk about | :45:01. | :45:05. | |
this picture here, because this is taken in Gateshead, and, I guess if | :45:06. | :45:08. | |
you are talking about achievements in you life, never mind the races | :45:09. | :45:13. | |
the great north run is something that you must be tremendously proud | :45:14. | :45:17. | |
of, because that made lots of people, not just watch running but | :45:18. | :45:18. | |
take part. That's right. When I was a runner, | :45:19. | :45:32. | |
commentating on the 1980 Olympic marathon, there would only be 1000 | :45:33. | :45:36. | |
people in the country who had any idea what you were talking about, | :45:37. | :45:40. | |
because they had done it. Nowadays, the Great North Run, and the London | :45:41. | :45:43. | |
Marathon, each of them have had a million people running in them. The | :45:44. | :45:48. | |
biggest transformation in my lifetime has been from when the | :45:49. | :45:52. | |
geeks and the professionals used to run in the 1970s, to it becoming | :45:53. | :45:56. | |
commonplace. When we went out running, people used to shout at | :45:57. | :46:00. | |
you. Nowadays, it's a common occurrence. They used to shout, | :46:01. | :46:04. | |
marathon, marathon! There was a chocolate bar! But that's the most | :46:05. | :46:10. | |
exciting change. Even more exciting is, the first Great North Run, 8% of | :46:11. | :46:15. | |
the runners were women. And this year, the last Great North Run, 48% | :46:16. | :46:19. | |
were women. So it has been a huge movement, and women are an essential | :46:20. | :46:24. | |
part of it. And it's amazing to see. A lot of people have been paying | :46:25. | :46:30. | |
tribute to you. I know you are a very modest person, you said, I have | :46:31. | :46:34. | |
listed a few, lost a few, about your own career. Lots of people paying | :46:35. | :46:39. | |
tribute to you. We have got a bit of a surprise for you now. Hi, Brendan, | :46:40. | :46:45. | |
it's Paula. I just want to say what a privilege it has been to sit | :46:46. | :46:48. | |
alongside you in the commentary box, and I can't believe that you're not | :46:49. | :46:52. | |
going to be there any more. You have had all 37 of the London Marathons | :46:53. | :46:56. | |
up to this point, almost synonymous with that. I can remember making my | :46:57. | :47:00. | |
debut in 2002, running along, imagining in my head what you and | :47:01. | :47:04. | |
Steve were going to be discussing in the commentary box. It has been an | :47:05. | :47:07. | |
honour to have you commentating on so many of my big races, and then to | :47:08. | :47:11. | |
share so much of your knowledge with me as well, as I've been learning, | :47:12. | :47:14. | |
in a new role as a commentator, and learning from some of the very best. | :47:15. | :47:19. | |
All of the tips and guidance that you've given me there and throughout | :47:20. | :47:22. | |
my career as well have been really welcome. I know that you're going to | :47:23. | :47:25. | |
still be around, I still can't believe you won't turn up next year | :47:26. | :47:29. | |
and just sit alongside us in the commentary box and join in again. | :47:30. | :47:32. | |
But we're really going to miss you, and we'll still see you around. | :47:33. | :47:36. | |
Thanks so much for all of the memories that you've created | :47:37. | :47:42. | |
Trinidad is very nice. She's a pretty good runner as well, you | :47:43. | :47:47. | |
know! So, Brendan, what are you going to do? I'm still going to | :47:48. | :47:51. | |
work, I'm still going to be involved with the Great North Run. I wouldn't | :47:52. | :47:55. | |
be very good at retiring, like, not doing anything. You know, Frank | :47:56. | :48:00. | |
Sinatra had a few comebacks as well, didn't he? You might be back! I | :48:01. | :48:04. | |
could see you coming back! Before we let you go, we have something very | :48:05. | :48:08. | |
special but we would like to give you. If I could just ask Tracy, our | :48:09. | :48:13. | |
floor manager, to walk in with a special gift for you. Look at that. | :48:14. | :48:20. | |
That's for you to take home. There we go, can we see that, that's for | :48:21. | :48:27. | |
you. Thank you very much. Can I wear it on Sunday?! That won't be a | :48:28. | :48:33. | |
problem at all. This feels like an episode of This Is Your Life. Are | :48:34. | :48:38. | |
you feeling emotional? I know it is a while yet, you go through until | :48:39. | :48:41. | |
the summer, but does it feel like a big deal that you're stepping aside? | :48:42. | :48:46. | |
For a lot of people, as Paula was saying, your voice is so synonymous | :48:47. | :48:51. | |
with the sport? Well, I was just intending to turn up on Sunday and | :48:52. | :48:54. | |
commentate, and other people have been making a fuss, not me. Really | :48:55. | :49:00. | |
quickly, Mo Farah, what more do you expect from him this summer? Well, | :49:01. | :49:05. | |
he and I are going to step off the stage together. He's going to step | :49:06. | :49:08. | |
down from running on the track come me from the comedy box. I hope it's | :49:09. | :49:15. | |
a glorious 2017 for Mo, and who knows? Good look at the weekend | :49:16. | :49:19. | |
common not that you will need it. The London Marathon is taking part | :49:20. | :49:36. | |
this weekend and you can watch it on the BBC. | :49:37. | :49:38. | |
Here's Matt with a look at this morning's weather. | :49:39. | :49:40. | |
We have got dry conditions predicted for Sunday, almost perfect | :49:41. | :49:49. | |
conditions. Good luck if you are taking part. Here we are at the | :49:50. | :49:54. | |
spring flower show in Harrowgate. We have seen the blooms, and | :49:55. | :50:00. | |
horticulture has been meeting fashion, with these stunning designs | :50:01. | :50:04. | |
all around me, done by an award-winning costumier and artist | :50:05. | :50:11. | |
from New Zealand. Some of more than 100 pieces and she has done, each | :50:12. | :50:16. | |
one taking roughly three months to make, using more than 70 metres of | :50:17. | :50:20. | |
fabric and miles upon miles of thread. They are actually amazing, | :50:21. | :50:24. | |
they are wearable, perhaps not quite waterproof for our climate, though. | :50:25. | :50:29. | |
But hopefully, most of you, certainly if you want to spend some | :50:30. | :50:32. | |
time outdoors this weekend, not too much rain around. It is not great | :50:33. | :50:38. | |
news for the gardeners, I know. Some of you are desperate for rain. But | :50:39. | :50:41. | |
there will be a lot of dry weather around with just one or two showers. | :50:42. | :50:47. | |
This morning however across parts of Scotland, some heavy rain at the | :50:48. | :50:50. | |
moment to the north and the west. That's going to be pushing | :50:51. | :50:56. | |
southwards during the day. Lots of cloud in northern England, with | :50:57. | :50:59. | |
patchy rain and drizzle on the Pennines. Some of the sunniest | :51:00. | :51:07. | |
weather this morning is across Devon, Cornwall and south Wales. | :51:08. | :51:11. | |
Things quickly warming up in sunny conditions here. Always a little bit | :51:12. | :51:25. | |
of breezy further north. It may be a bit damp at times in the Isle of Man | :51:26. | :51:30. | |
and indeed Northern Ireland. To the north of Northern Ireland, later | :51:31. | :51:33. | |
this afternoon, things will turn that bit wetter. This will be | :51:34. | :51:39. | |
pushing southwards, fizzling a little bit as it goes. Turning | :51:40. | :51:44. | |
colder from the north as well, with sunshine and one or two showers. | :51:45. | :51:50. | |
Much of England and Wales will be dry. When the sun Drakes group, | :51:51. | :51:59. | |
feeling quite pleasant, if not warm. Into tonight, the cloudy conditions | :52:00. | :52:03. | |
and patchy rain works its way southwards across England and Wales. | :52:04. | :52:08. | |
With talking mainly northern England and Scotland, where there could be a | :52:09. | :52:11. | |
touch of frost to take us into Saturday morning. Saturday, not | :52:12. | :52:17. | |
looking too bad, really. There will be more of a chill, especially | :52:18. | :52:24. | |
across Scotland and eastern England. In between those two zones, down the | :52:25. | :52:29. | |
centre, we will see a fair amount of sunshine. The sunniest at the moment | :52:30. | :52:33. | |
looks like it's going to be Wales on Sunday. -- on Saturday. Into Sunday, | :52:34. | :52:45. | |
the winds going back into the west. There could be a touch of frost just | :52:46. | :52:49. | |
about anywhere in the countryside to start on Sunday morning. Warming up | :52:50. | :52:54. | |
in the sun across England and Wales. For Scotland and Northern Ireland, a | :52:55. | :52:59. | |
few showers and in the fall of Scotland, heavy and persistent rain | :53:00. | :53:03. | |
developing by the end of the day. We could have winds up to severe gale | :53:04. | :53:06. | |
force which will last into Sunday night. As we move into Monday, rain | :53:07. | :53:11. | |
will work its way southwards across the country, and then get ready for | :53:12. | :53:15. | |
a return to something a bit colder and potentially more wintry. That's | :53:16. | :53:20. | |
how it's looking here at Harrogate flower show. Before I go, either I'm | :53:21. | :53:26. | |
very small, and that could be the case, or our Carol has got big feet, | :53:27. | :53:30. | |
because I've found a pair of her shoes! | :53:31. | :53:37. | |
When an 11-year-old boy on the way home from football was killed | :53:38. | :53:43. | |
in the crossfire of a mindless gangland shooting, | :53:44. | :53:45. | |
A new ITV drama, Little Boy Blue, revisits the tragic death | :53:46. | :53:49. | |
of Rhys Jones on the streets of Liverpool in 2007, | :53:50. | :53:51. | |
the struggle his family has faced to come to terms with his death, | :53:52. | :53:54. | |
and the police investigation that finally brought | :53:55. | :53:56. | |
Do you have any idea who did it? I don't, not yet. With lots of | :53:57. | :54:14. | |
witnesses, and there's information and names coming in from the public | :54:15. | :54:21. | |
all the time. Please, help us. Please! I'll do my utmost to get | :54:22. | :54:28. | |
whoever did this. And anyone else who's helped them. I promise you | :54:29. | :54:34. | |
that. Thank you! Jeff Pope is the writer behind | :54:35. | :54:38. | |
the four-part series. If this was a fictional drama, it | :54:39. | :54:47. | |
would be hard enough to watch. The fact that it is a true story, that | :54:48. | :54:51. | |
we know that this really happened, it is at times incredibly difficult | :54:52. | :54:57. | |
to watch. Why did you think it was important for more people to know | :54:58. | :55:01. | |
about Rhys? Well, the difficult thing, you're right, it is a hard | :55:02. | :55:06. | |
watch, if that is the way to describe it. But then there is a lot | :55:07. | :55:10. | |
of television, if you look at the schedules, which is an easy watch, | :55:11. | :55:14. | |
The X Factor and those kind of shows a. So, I make no apology for the | :55:15. | :55:20. | |
fact that a subject like this should be brought before an audience. I | :55:21. | :55:27. | |
think that what happened here was, to me, this was to Liverpool, I | :55:28. | :55:36. | |
would almost put it in the same category, in a different way, as the | :55:37. | :55:40. | |
murder of Stephen Lawrence was to London. People all over the country | :55:41. | :55:47. | |
thought, how has this happened? An 11-year-old boy, it has to be a | :55:48. | :55:50. | |
subject that we have to address. I have seen the first episode, and | :55:51. | :55:54. | |
people will make their own minds up. It is not a review in any sense, but | :55:55. | :55:59. | |
when I was watching it, as Sally said, it is a very hard watch, the | :56:00. | :56:04. | |
sequence of events, and I had to keep reminding myself that, as I | :56:05. | :56:10. | |
understand it, Rhys's family are entirely on board, they understand | :56:11. | :56:13. | |
what you're doing, they agree with making this into a drama. Just | :56:14. | :56:18. | |
explain, those first conversations with them, when the idea is talked | :56:19. | :56:22. | |
about, how involved are they? That process would have been done years | :56:23. | :56:26. | |
ago. I spent hours and hours with Melanie and Steve at their home am I | :56:27. | :56:32. | |
talking through this. That process is crucial, because there was a | :56:33. | :56:38. | |
moment in the clip when Dave Kelly, who I also spent a lot of time with, | :56:39. | :56:43. | |
the first time he went to visit Melanie, and they both told me | :56:44. | :56:46. | |
separately of that moment when she suddenly said, please help us. She's | :56:47. | :56:50. | |
addressing that the detective who going to lead the investigation? | :56:51. | :56:57. | |
Exactly. Please help us. And it just went straight to the heart. Process | :56:58. | :57:02. | |
was to spend hours and hours and hours with Melanie and Steve, and to | :57:03. | :57:07. | |
understand what they went through. If they hadn't have taken part in | :57:08. | :57:10. | |
that process or if they had said, we can't do this, this is too personal, | :57:11. | :57:17. | |
then the programme wouldn't have happened. I imagine for them, maybe | :57:18. | :57:23. | |
one of the reasons that they felt they needed to talk to you and to | :57:24. | :57:26. | |
get the story out there is because the killing itself just was so | :57:27. | :57:31. | |
senseless? It was unbelievable. I have a sun who is just a little bit, | :57:32. | :57:35. | |
a couple of months within the age of Rhys. So at the time, like millions | :57:36. | :57:40. | |
of people, when that happened, it was just that, why? How can that | :57:41. | :57:45. | |
have happened? And it resonated around the city. There's a moment | :57:46. | :57:52. | |
early on in the investigation, when the police knew who was involved, | :57:53. | :57:59. | |
who was behind the murder, but it did look, through gang culture, no | :58:00. | :58:06. | |
grassing, etc, that they might get away with it. And then comes this | :58:07. | :58:11. | |
incredible moment, when Everton Football Club stage a minute's | :58:12. | :58:18. | |
applause for Rhys, and that, to me, was like a city saying, this isn't | :58:19. | :58:23. | |
us, THIS is us. We're not having this. And there were tens of | :58:24. | :58:27. | |
thousands of people that date who spoke for Liverpool. Just explain, | :58:28. | :58:33. | |
this is the film, but it was a real event, which happened. When you were | :58:34. | :58:41. | |
making this... Yeah, it was an extraordinary challenge. This was a | :58:42. | :58:45. | |
match in October last year, we asked Everton to recreate that moment. | :58:46. | :58:49. | |
This all happened in October, nearly ten years after the original a | :58:50. | :58:54. | |
minute's applause. And I suspect there were probably many thousands | :58:55. | :58:57. | |
in there who took part in the original one. And it was just | :58:58. | :59:02. | |
humbling. We asked if supporters would stay at half-time rather than | :59:03. | :59:06. | |
get their pie or point, and there was not an empty seat in the house. | :59:07. | :59:11. | |
And it's incredible, I remember this happening ten years ago, I remember | :59:12. | :59:14. | |
watching those parents and thinking, how comfortable are they standing | :59:15. | :59:17. | |
there? But actually when you now know more about them, it was hugely | :59:18. | :59:22. | |
part of the recovery for them? That was Liverpool getting behind them. | :59:23. | :59:27. | |
And I should say that Liverpool Football Club did the same thing as | :59:28. | :59:32. | |
well, they played the Everton theme tune, Z-Cars, as the Liverpool team | :59:33. | :59:36. | |
came out to play. Not many cities that happens in. No. And the fact | :59:37. | :59:43. | |
that this happened in Liverpool... Liverpool becomes a character in the | :59:44. | :59:47. | |
drama, I believe. Very interesting talking to you this morning, Jeff. | :59:48. | :59:54. | |
Little Boy Blue begins on ITV on Monday, 24th April at 9pm. | :59:55. | :01:31. | |
We are back round 1.30. Now back to Sally and Charlie. | :01:32. | :01:38. | |
As the lead in the hit musical TV show Glee, | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
Lea Michele performed new routines week in, week out to millions | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
The actor and singer released her first solo album | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
at the height of Glee's popularity, after an emotional period | :01:48. | :01:49. | |
So, for her follow-up album, Places, Lea says she has returned | :01:50. | :01:54. | |
to her roots and the music she grew up with, including Barbra Streisand. | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
But first, here she is in Glee, taking on a Barbra | :01:58. | :02:02. | |
# Get ready for me love, 'cause I'm a comer | :02:03. | :02:28. | |
# I simply gotta march, my heart's a drummer | :02:29. | :02:30. | |
Actor, singer-songwriter and author Lea Michele | :02:31. | :02:57. | |
You think you look really young there It was many years ago. How | :02:58. | :03:08. | |
long ago? That was about 2008 I filmed that or 2009, so it was quite | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
a while ago. It is a while. You have, what is the the phrase a big | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
set of pipes, is that what they say? Ethan you. I appreciate that. Did | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
you always have that, was that something, did you have a big voice | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
naturally? I think it grew as I got older but I started performing on | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
Broadway when I was eight. I have been singing ever since and it has | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
grown and I am proud of it. We saw you in Glee and we mentioned that | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
Glee, that was a job-and-a-half, you were singing day in, day out, so | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
singing at work all day, and your first album came out at that time so | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
you would sing at work, sing at weekends. It was crazy, I am very | :03:51. | :03:56. | |
proud of myself for being able to do both at the same time but it was | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
educating for me, I loved my first record but it is challenging, | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
especially vocally to be recorded what ten songs for Glee a week and | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
going over on the weekend, and it was sort of, you know made it a bit | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
more difficult for me to understand who I was as a solo artist so it was | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
important for me with making this new record I took the time, Glee is | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
finished and vocally I feel more prepared and put my all into this | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
record and was able to find out what my true sound is, outside of Glee | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
and I think I have done that with this record, so I am very happy. | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
Shall we let people judge whether you have found the new sound, this | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
is the single. This is Love is Alive. | :04:41. | :04:52. | |
# Love is alive # In me | :04:53. | :05:02. | |
# Oh, oh, oh # Oh, oh, oh... Our microphone might | :05:03. | :05:14. | |
have been open, you have a long, you have to sing that tonight. Yes I am | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
doing a concert tonight, so... In London. Yes. That is quite a song, | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
to get your head round. But that is really what I wanted to do with this | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
record, I wanted to show everyone what I could do. I grew up listening | :05:28. | :05:36. | |
to Barbra Streisand and Celine Dion, they inspired me. I wanted to go | :05:37. | :05:39. | |
back to my roots and show what my voice can do. It is interesting you | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
say if you are singing during the week with Glee and singing is Barbra | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
Streisand, those women are big character, do you find that a bit of | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
them rubbed off on to you? Yes, I mean, you know, like I said I grew | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
up in New York, I grew up on Broadway, I feel I have a very big | :05:59. | :06:04. | |
personality, some people might say I am like Rachel Barry from Glee, but | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
I am inspired by them and how they hold themselves and someone like | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
Adele, who I saw her perform at the Staple Centre and she stands there | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
alone on the stage and commands the arena and Barbara has done the same | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
and is line with just their voice, there is no huge performances behind | :06:25. | :06:27. | |
them, that is inspiring to me and that is what I hope to do. That is a | :06:28. | :06:32. | |
brave thing, one is to stand up on the stage and sing, you are singing | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
tonight, another is to sing personal things, about have a song you are | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
putting out, and there are many that are very personal to you. Yes, as a | :06:43. | :06:48. | |
song writer, you know, for me I am very personal with my life and I try | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
to keep things private but when it comes to me music, that is my | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
opportunity to open up, and connect with my fans and especially with the | :06:56. | :07:02. | |
concerts I have been doing, I talk about what the songs mean to me and | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
where I was at when I wrote them. That is what being a writer is | :07:07. | :07:11. | |
about, it is telling stories and it is important you have to keep in | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
mind, when you are writing a song, someone should be able to listen to | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
it themselves and have them make it, you know, whatever it needs to | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
become for them, so I try to keep that in mind as well. But I have | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
some great, the album for me is personal but I wanted it to be up | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
lifting and I wanted it to be positive and inspiring. I feel like | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
I have a lot of young fans that look up to me, and I wanted there to be | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
great messages on there for them, that were positive and happy as | :07:42. | :07:44. | |
well. And there are some break up songs | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
too. There are. Do you ever find when, you are talking about the song | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
you are about to sing, does the emotion overwhelm me ever? In my | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
concerts I do a couple of songs from Glee, I do a bunch from my first | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
record, some from this record and I do a bunch of Glee song, I find | :08:04. | :08:06. | |
myself going back to the moments where I sang them in the show, and I | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
do get kind of choked up, but what I did learn on Broadway quite well is | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
how to cry and sing very well at the exact same time. That is a | :08:16. | :14:01. | |
I've had an e-mail from Frank, who is in bed with Mrs A, goodness! | :14:02. | :14:06. |
