Hello, this is Breakfast, with Charlie Stayt and Naga | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Violent clashes as world leaders gather for the G20 | :00:00. | :00:11. | |
Police used tear gas and water cannon to disperse hundreds | :00:12. | :00:24. | |
of masked protestors throwing bottles and stones. | :00:25. | :00:26. | |
President Trump and President Putin will hold their first face to face | :00:27. | :00:29. | |
talks today when they meet at the summit. | :00:30. | :00:42. | |
Good morning, it's Friday, seventh July. | :00:43. | :00:44. | |
Also this morning: Mental health services in England at risk | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
This is one of me when I joined the army. Wow. | :00:48. | :01:01. | |
We'll hear how life has changed for those who serve | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
There are concerns that thousands of people could be let down | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
when they buy a pre-paid funeral plan, with many not get | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
In sport: Johanna Konta is now favourite | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
She is one of four Britons for the first time in 20 years heading into | :01:20. | :01:39. | |
the final week. Good morning. Yesterday we hit 32.2 Celsius. Today | :01:40. | :01:46. | |
won't be as hot with highs of about 28, it should be dry in Wimbledon. | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
There is some rain and showers in the forecast and I will tell you | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
where when we are back later in the programme. Mike, Carol, thanks very | :01:56. | :01:57. | |
much. There were violent clashes last | :01:58. | :01:59. | |
night in Hamburg ahead Police used water cannon and pepper | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
spray on masked protestors The demonstrations came ahead | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
of the highly anticipated first face-to-face talks today | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
between President Trump Our diplomatic correspondent, | :02:13. | :02:13. | |
James Robbins, reports A global summit automatically | :02:14. | :02:25. | |
triggers protest from those who accuse the world's most powerful | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
leaders of serving narrow interests. Welcome to hell is one slogan, to | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
meet the presidents and prime ministers who are divided over a | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
huge range of issues. Most eyes are focused on the controversial figure | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
of President Donald Trump. The summit host Angela Merkel facing | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
elections has shown her anger in the past over the President's | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
denunciation over the Paris Climate Change Agreement. She now hopes to | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
combine toughness with a search for some common ground. The real prize | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
fight here will be Mr Trump's first presidential bout with Russia's | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
Vladimir Putin. On his way here President Trump acknowledged the | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
possibility Russia interviewed in the American elections, at the same | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
time accusing Russia of deliberate destabilisation through its actions | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
in Ukraine. These are charges denied by Vladimir Putin and the Kremlin. | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
The presidents may find some common ground but this very personal | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
contest symbolises deep divisions among the wider leadership of the | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
most powerful economies in the world. Disputes over trade and how | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
to confront North Korea are among other highly contentious issues. | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
China, with Russia, wants to keep the focus on dialogue. The Prime | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
Minister Theresa May has come to Hamburg pledging to continue her | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
campaign to outlaw the financing of violent extremism. She will present | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
new ideas for international corporation to try to identify and | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
close down even small-scale channelling of funds to learn | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
attackers. All the summits throw division into sharp relief but still | :04:02. | :04:03. | |
this one feels exceptional. We'll speak to the former UK | :04:04. | :04:05. | |
ambassador to Russia, Sir Tony Brenton, at | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
7:10am this morning. Mental health services in England | :04:09. | :04:18. | |
are being overwhelmed by a combination of rising demand and | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
staff shortages according to a survey by NHS providers. There are | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
concerns extra government money designed to improve access for | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
patients needing help is failing to reach frontline services. Here is | :04:29. | :04:30. | |
Dominic Hughes. Two years ago Alice Victor was | :04:31. | :04:37. | |
struggling with an eating disorder but her GP told her it would take at | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
least a year before she was referred for NHS treatment. In the end Alice | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
went private but thinking back she remembers the weight as a dangerous | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
time. It takes so much to come out and say I need help and I need | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
professional help, and then cannot get it is horrible. And having to | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
wait longer and longer, you get stuck in the same unhealthy thought | :05:00. | :05:02. | |
patterns and your mental illness takes over. A survey of bosses at | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
mental health trusts across England paints a picture of services under | :05:08. | :05:11. | |
pressure. 70% expect demand to increase this year. Two out of three | :05:12. | :05:17. | |
say they don't have enough staff to cope, particularly mental health | :05:18. | :05:22. | |
nurses and psychiatrists. And 80% say extra government money intended | :05:23. | :05:25. | |
for mental health is not reaching frontline services. We have seen | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
many, many more campaigns up and down the country talking about | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
breaking down the stigma of presenting for mental health | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
treatment at that means that demand is going through the roof. We are at | :05:38. | :05:44. | |
risk of mental health trust being overwhelmed in the near future. The | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
Department of Health in England said it expected NHS bosses to make sure | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
one extra billion pounds each year reach frontline mental health | :05:53. | :05:59. | |
services by 2021. Meanwhile a BBC Radio 5 live investigation has found | :06:00. | :06:05. | |
a 16% rise in ambulance callouts to people suffering from suspected | :06:06. | :06:08. | |
mental health problems, adding to the signs the pressure is building a | :06:09. | :06:10. | |
across the system. A senior judge will lead the | :06:11. | :06:20. | |
Grenfell Tower public enquiry has faced angry questions from the fire | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
and local residents at a public meeting last night. | :06:25. | :06:25. | |
Sir Martin Moore-Bick has been accused of ignoring calls for him | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
to consider the social issues which affect public housing. | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
One resident accused him of doing a hatchet job on the inquiry, | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
Tens of thousands of people will face financial hardship, | :06:35. | :06:38. | |
and be forced into debt, if changes aren't made to the way | :06:39. | :06:41. | |
the new welfare benefit, Universal Credit, | :06:42. | :06:43. | |
That's according to the charity Citizens Advice, | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
which is calling for improvements. | :06:49. | :06:49. | |
However, ministers insist the benefit is working, | :06:50. | :06:51. | |
as our social affairs correspondent Michael Buchanan reports. | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
At the Citizens Advice office in Bridgewater, | :06:58. | :06:59. | |
an increasing number of people are coming in, | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
Vicki Kelly has had to take the day off work to sort out her problems. | :07:03. | :07:07. | |
She has no internet access at home and struggles to keep up | :07:08. | :07:10. | |
Yeah, I'm having to take the day off from work to sort this out! | :07:11. | :07:15. | |
They you want me to work and yet, you've got to take time off! | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
What's it been like, then, the past few months? | :07:20. | :07:21. | |
Struggling for money, having to find other work | :07:22. | :07:24. | |
And obviously now, they have stopped it again at the moment, | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
we have to make phone calls, make appointments to come back | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
And again, it is more time off of work, losing more money. | :07:32. | :07:38. | |
Universal Credit has been rolled out across rolled out across Britain, | :07:39. | :07:41. | |
six welfare payments such as housing benefit and tax credits | :07:42. | :07:44. | |
But problems are emerging - a survey conducted by | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
Citizens Advice of those people it's helped found over a third | :07:49. | :07:51. | |
of claimants are waiting longer than the six weeks they should | :07:52. | :07:54. | |
One in ten people have to wait over ten weeks for Universal Credit. | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
More than half have had to borrow money while waiting | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
We are seeing at the moment thousands of people | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
who are seriously worried about their personal situations | :08:07. | :08:08. | |
and cannot fix it because the administration of Universal Credit | :08:09. | :08:11. | |
is not helping them and the support is not there for them | :08:12. | :08:14. | |
Ministers insist that Universal Credit is a success | :08:15. | :08:19. | |
and say most claimants are satisfied with the benefit and that help | :08:20. | :08:22. | |
it is available for those with problems. | :08:23. | :08:24. | |
A former manager of the car manufacturer Audi has been charged | :08:25. | :08:34. | |
in the United States for ordering staff to cheat emissions tests. | :08:35. | :08:36. | |
The US Justice Department accused Giovanni Pamio of conspiracy | :08:37. | :08:39. | |
to defraud the United States and violating the Clean Air Act. | :08:40. | :08:42. | |
Audi's parent company, Volkswagen, has already admitted to cheating | :08:43. | :08:45. | |
on vehicle emission tests in the US and fined nearly $3 billion. | :08:46. | :08:59. | |
A gallery will open in David Hockney's hometown of Bradford today | :09:00. | :09:06. | |
to coincide with his 80th birthday this week. | :09:07. | :09:10. | |
The David Hockney Gallery, at Cartwright Hall, houses | :09:11. | :09:12. | |
the largest public collection of his early artworks from Bradford | :09:13. | :09:14. | |
The display also includes family photos and previously unseen footage | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
Let's take a look at the papers this morning. Shall we start with the | :09:19. | :09:30. | |
Sun? A warning of a butter shortage. Morning, Sean. Warnings Brits face a | :09:31. | :09:38. | |
biggest butter shortage - this would worry me, actually. A shortage by | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
Christmas, from the boss of a garage producer, shortage by Christmas. | :09:44. | :09:50. | |
Why? Quite a few reasons, there is a change in viewpoint about what is | :09:51. | :09:53. | |
healthier, margarine or butter, McDonald's have started using butter | :09:54. | :10:00. | |
- they've got a lot of franchises around the world, haven't a? That's | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
how they have created a little shortage -- they? The Great British | :10:05. | :10:10. | |
Bake Off has sparked a surge in cake making. That could be it as well. | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
When was the last time you bake a cake? I made an egg custard around | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
seven years ago. LAUGHTER. | :10:19. | :10:22. | |
That's not even a cake! Well done. Was it good? Do you know what, it | :10:23. | :10:30. | |
was good. Who ate it? Me. Hold on, that's getting a little bit sad. | :10:31. | :10:36. | |
Primarily, I've always been a little fan of egg custard. LAUGHTER We are | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
going on a little bit of attention. This is the fun of the Telegraph, | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
derailing wrecks it, in connection with comments from his nurse leaders | :10:47. | :10:50. | |
about whether Brexit policy should go at this stage -- Brexit. And this | :10:51. | :10:56. | |
is our lead story, Donald Trump on his visit to Warsaw. Today it is the | :10:57. | :11:02. | |
G20 summit. More on that this morning. Lots of stories on the fun | :11:03. | :11:09. | |
of the Times, France talking about banning diesel engines and petrol | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
cars. The political story says one fifth of labour MPs have appeared on | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
a deselection hit list drawn up by left-wing activists, emboldened by | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
Jeremy Corbyn's general election success, so it is taking a look at | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
that. And a beach of Joe Root hitting 184 not out on his first day | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
as England captain. What have you got for us, Sean? The big stories | :11:34. | :11:39. | |
making the front pages. That petrol and diesel ban. There has been a | :11:40. | :11:46. | |
real big move, you have Tesla, electric car maker, announcing a | :11:47. | :11:49. | |
mass-market car, slightly more affordable than the hundred grand | :11:50. | :11:53. | |
ones. The day before yesterday, Volvo said a electric only from | :11:54. | :11:57. | |
2019, and now France is banning them. It is a shift, isn't it? A big | :11:58. | :12:03. | |
shift. When you dig into the pages, the one making the headlines, Mike | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
Ashley, there is a court case going on between Mike Ashley and someone | :12:08. | :12:13. | |
who wants money from him. Some of the testimony from him, Sports | :12:14. | :12:20. | |
Direct, he says "I am a power drinker, I just binge to get drunk" | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
and there is a story of him doing a deal in a pub, and does it mean it | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
is legally binding or not? Some of his comments about how he does his | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
company, they have been quite big. Some saying he hasn't done himself | :12:36. | :12:39. | |
any favours in terms of public image of. He would say, this is me, this | :12:40. | :12:44. | |
is the person I am. This is what he was like on Breakfast. This is how I | :12:45. | :12:49. | |
do my life. Let me get on with it. On the subject of meetings and how | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
people conduct themselves, there is fascination when Donald Trump meets | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
another litre, literally that moment of the handshake. He has had one or | :12:58. | :13:01. | |
two awkward ones. Is it a handshake or a squeeze? Yesterday of course | :13:02. | :13:06. | |
Donald Trump meeting, you can see it, Angela Merkel. Here is the shot, | :13:07. | :13:12. | |
who is doing what, who looks more awkward. It is kind of compelling. | :13:13. | :13:18. | |
Today is the day when President Trump will meet President Putin. In | :13:19. | :13:23. | |
public. Inevitably, not the most important part of these things. I | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
bet they planned it beforehand. Sometimes these days it might be | :13:29. | :13:34. | |
like that, like that... A bit of a chest bump, maybe. Bill Clinton | :13:35. | :13:37. | |
would do the 2-handed thing. Almost like a hand hug. That is a warm | :13:38. | :13:45. | |
handshake, isn't it? We will see. Thanks very much, Sean. | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
It's a busy day at Wimbledon today with four British tennis | :13:50. | :13:52. | |
Good morning. You're taking a look at the papers yourself? Yes, on my | :13:53. | :14:06. | |
park bench, look, what a perfect morning. I am pinching myself. Not | :14:07. | :14:13. | |
only is it so beautiful, overlooking court 14, but do you remember we | :14:14. | :14:19. | |
were worried about the fitness of Johanna Konta at Andy Murray and we | :14:20. | :14:23. | |
were thinking "Will they get to the first round" and here they are for | :14:24. | :14:29. | |
the first time in 20 years, we have not too but four Brits in action. It | :14:30. | :14:35. | |
feels rather special, rather privileged to be here. You mentioned | :14:36. | :14:41. | |
Joe Root but think about the fact this was his first match as captain | :14:42. | :14:45. | |
and often that really affects a player's form. Not at all. He is | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
still going strong on 184. He turned around the match against South | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
Africa. England in a strong position. 375-5. The football news | :14:55. | :15:02. | |
of the summer, Lukaku looking good as he goes to Manchester United, | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
apparently snatching the star from the noses of his former club, | :15:07. | :15:12. | |
Chelsea. As for Fab Four Friday, Heather Watson to reach the second | :15:13. | :15:18. | |
week, up against Azarenka, Johanna Konta against the Greek, Andy Murray | :15:19. | :15:35. | |
against Fognini, and Alea sped -- Bedene against the shield will. And | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
how about this for some lucky fans outside Wimbledon. Madaya was | :15:40. | :15:46. | |
playing a little football volley. Look at these skills from Nadal. | :15:47. | :15:57. | |
Eventually he puts it into his head. That is a moment that young fan will | :15:58. | :16:03. | |
never, ever forget. That just shows how cool Rafael Nadal really is, | :16:04. | :16:07. | |
back to his best, and keeping his cool is something we will all be | :16:08. | :16:11. | |
trying to do. How on earth can we manage it, it is looking even | :16:12. | :16:13. | |
hotter? No, you are wrong. It was very hot yesterday. 32.2 at | :16:14. | :16:26. | |
Heathrow. Quite hot indeed. Today we are looking at a lower temperatures, | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
still hot and humid, but probably a maximum of about 27 or 28. So what | :16:31. | :16:36. | |
is the forecast for Wimbledon? It should stay dry. Lots of sunshine, | :16:37. | :16:40. | |
but through the course of the day we should see more cloud developing. | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
Sunny spells with a light winds. If you are coming down, don't forget to | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
drink 20 of water, cover-up and have rakes in the shade. -- breaks. | :16:50. | :16:58. | |
Starting at nine o'clock in the south of England, there is lots of | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
sunshine. Blue skies over Wimbledon, which carries on as we move further | :17:03. | :17:06. | |
north, with bits and pieces of and there. As we head into Scotland, a | :17:07. | :17:13. | |
fair bit of rain around. Through the day, that will sink southwards. In | :17:14. | :17:17. | |
eastern Scotland it could he quite heavy for a time. Northern Ireland | :17:18. | :17:21. | |
has cloud producing some drizzle, and as we go across the Irish Sea | :17:22. | :17:27. | |
into Wales, a bright start to the day, and the same for the south-west | :17:28. | :17:31. | |
of England. By nine o'clock temperatures will be rising quite | :17:32. | :17:34. | |
nicely and that sunshine. Moving from Gloucestershire to the Home | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
Counties, including southern counties and the Midlands, a lot of | :17:39. | :17:43. | |
dry weather to start the day. Some sunshine with a wee bit of cloud | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
around and temperatures continuing to climb. As we go through the day, | :17:47. | :17:50. | |
the weather front producing rain in Scotland sinks further south. The | :17:51. | :17:55. | |
cloud will also build from the west. For most of us, we will be looking | :17:56. | :17:59. | |
at a day of bright spells and sunny spells, not quite as hot as it was | :18:00. | :18:05. | |
yesterday, but still hot, around 28 or 29. Highs further north at 19 or | :18:06. | :18:12. | |
maybe the low 20s. As we head into the evening and overnight, the | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
weather front in Scotland continues to move south. It will bring cloud | :18:17. | :18:22. | |
and showery outbreaks with it. In sheltered areas it will be a cool | :18:23. | :18:25. | |
night. Temperatures in single figures. Ahead of that we are | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
looking at another hot and humid one, rather like we had last night. | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
An oppressive and sticky feeling to the weather. So tomorrow we begin | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
with the best of the sunshine across much of Scotland and northern | :18:38. | :18:40. | |
England, where it has been quite wet recently, and north-eastern England | :18:41. | :18:45. | |
as well. We do have some showers around but has become further south | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
again there is a better chance of seeing some drier conditions. Later | :18:50. | :18:52. | |
they will be a new front coming in across the far north. On Sunday that | :18:53. | :18:56. | |
front will be sweeping steadily southwards. As it gets into southern | :18:57. | :19:00. | |
areas it will turn showery, we could see heavy showers and the risk of | :19:01. | :19:03. | |
some thunder. Temperatures coming down more to a comfortable level, | :19:04. | :19:08. | |
and behind that, again, bright spells with sunshine and 80 showers. | :19:09. | :19:13. | |
So the weather, I think, is quite contrary. A bit of this and a bit of | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
that. Thank you, Carol. Will my Leckey | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
sits down on his bench at some point? There is enough room. -- will | :19:23. | :19:29. | |
Mike let you sit down? Come on! I will move the papers. There we go. | :19:30. | :19:38. | |
They are definitely relaxing now. Thank you, guys. | :19:39. | :19:40. | |
It's 06:19 and you're watching Breakfast from BBC News. | :19:41. | :19:42. | |
The main stories this morning: 76 police officers have been hurt | :19:43. | :19:45. | |
in clashes with protesters in Hamburg ahead of the G20 summit. | :19:46. | :19:48. | |
More rallies are expected later today. | :19:49. | :19:50. | |
Mental health services in England risk being overwhelmed | :19:51. | :19:52. | |
by a combination of rising demand and staff shortages, | :19:53. | :19:55. | |
100 years ago today, women were allowed to join the armed | :19:56. | :20:05. | |
Women now serve on the front line in support roles such as medics, | :20:06. | :20:11. | |
We arranged for a World War II veteran to meet a new recruit | :20:12. | :20:16. | |
to discuss their experiences of life in the British Army. | :20:17. | :20:29. | |
This is a picture of me when I joined the army. And this was me in | :20:30. | :20:43. | |
Italy. Wow. So beautiful. I joined the army when I was 19. What did you | :20:44. | :20:50. | |
end up doing? They put me in the signals, the royal signals. | :20:51. | :20:58. | |
On D-Day I was on night duty and the girls came and work me up and said, | :20:59. | :21:06. | |
come and have a look at all the fighters going over. It had just | :21:07. | :21:12. | |
started. People often said to me, were you afraid? We were not afraid. | :21:13. | :21:18. | |
There was too much going on. May I have a little of that. How do you | :21:19. | :21:24. | |
feel you are treated as a woman in the army during the war? I think we | :21:25. | :21:29. | |
were treated rather well. Mind you, some of the barracks were ghastly, | :21:30. | :21:33. | |
and sometimes the food was pretty grotty. This is Barbara. Lovely to | :21:34. | :21:40. | |
see you all. Any signals? Royal signals? Hello! What made you decide | :21:41. | :21:47. | |
to join the army? The army was something I always wanted to do, it | :21:48. | :21:52. | |
always intrigued me. I come from a health background, so I am going to | :21:53. | :21:56. | |
be joining the royal army medical Corps. That's me there, the little | :21:57. | :22:03. | |
one in the middle. That's beautiful. We were introduced to trousers for | :22:04. | :22:07. | |
the first time, when I went to Italy. I was looking at your boots. | :22:08. | :22:14. | |
Very posh boots. How do you deal with conflict now? Because girls, I | :22:15. | :22:17. | |
understand, are allowed to shoot and kill? Males and females do nothing | :22:18. | :22:23. | |
different. It means that if and when the time does overcome that a female | :22:24. | :22:27. | |
needs to pull the trigger in combat, she can have 100% confidence in her | :22:28. | :22:31. | |
training that she has been given. Exactly. How do you think you would | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
have felt about that, maybe having to pull the trigger? I don't think I | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
would have any trouble. Like you girls, if it were me, I would rather | :22:40. | :22:46. | |
know how to shoot a rifle, you know? Because you have to move on. Paul! | :22:47. | :22:59. | |
Paul! -- pull! Pull!. It is a wonderful life. I would recommend | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
any young girl to have a go, even if you are unsure. Can I give you a | :23:05. | :23:11. | |
hug? Of course! So nice to meet you. And you Becky. It was a real | :23:12. | :23:15. | |
delight. Thank you to spending the time. | :23:16. | :23:16. | |
That was Barbara and Becky there, and it was great | :23:17. | :23:19. | |
You could see they connected, didn't you? Barbara understood exactly what | :23:20. | :23:27. | |
Becky was going through, are still prepared to do all the things that | :23:28. | :23:30. | |
Becky gets to do now, which Barbara perhaps didn't do. Really | :23:31. | :23:34. | |
interesting, hearing both of their reflections on the different | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
experiences. In a funny kind of way, very similar experiences. If you | :23:39. | :23:42. | |
have photos of your female relatives who are serving or have served in | :23:43. | :23:46. | |
the armed forces, do send them into us today. | :23:47. | :23:47. | |
We will be speaking a little bit more about women in the military a | :23:48. | :23:56. | |
bit later on this morning. Yes, celebrating 100 years of women in | :23:57. | :24:00. | |
the army. We will be speaking to one of the women who has achieved the | :24:01. | :24:04. | |
highest military ranks in Britain, and the third woman in the RAF to | :24:05. | :24:08. | |
have this level of rank, a little bit later on. -- one of the highest | :24:09. | :24:13. | |
military ranks. Still to come this morning, | :24:14. | :24:15. | |
our Game, Set, Mug competition seems to have rattled some of the best | :24:16. | :24:18. | |
tennis players in the world. See how Britain's Heather Watson | :24:19. | :24:21. | |
does in our challenge later on. They have all | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
particularly on Saturday. -- plenty I'm back with the latest | :24:27. | :27:44. | |
from the BBC London newsroom Now though it's back | :27:45. | :27:49. | |
to Naga and Charlie. Hello, this is Breakfast | :27:50. | :27:54. | |
with Naga Munchetty and Charlie Coming up on Breakfast today: | :27:55. | :27:56. | |
Calls for more focus Also this morning: Love | :27:57. | :28:08. | |
them or loathe them, self-service checkouts have been | :28:09. | :28:13. | |
around for more than a decade. Sean will be here to tell us | :28:14. | :28:16. | |
what could replace them. The jumbo jet is 40 years old and | :28:17. | :28:24. | |
will it be here to stay? We will find out later. | :28:25. | :28:27. | |
And after 9am, we'll be talking about the gripping | :28:28. | :28:32. | |
drama In the Dark with lead actor MyAnna Buring. | :28:33. | :28:34. | |
But now a summary of this morning's main news. | :28:35. | :28:39. | |
The highly anticipated first face-to-face talks | :28:40. | :28:41. | |
between President Trump and President Putin will take place | :28:42. | :28:43. | |
Ahead of the meeting at the G20 summit, there were violent clashes. | :28:44. | :28:47. | |
Police used water cannon and pepper spray on masked protesters | :28:48. | :28:50. | |
Our diplomatic correspondent, James Robbins, reports | :28:51. | :28:53. | |
A global summit automatically triggers protest from those | :28:54. | :29:00. | |
who accuse the world's most powerful leaders of serving narrow interests. | :29:01. | :29:06. | |
"Welcome to hell," is one slogan, to meet the presidents and prime | :29:07. | :29:09. | |
ministers who are divided over a huge range of issues. | :29:10. | :29:15. | |
But most eyes are focused on the controversial figure | :29:16. | :29:17. | |
This summit host, Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel, | :29:18. | :29:27. | |
facing elections, has shown her anger in the past over | :29:28. | :29:30. | |
the President's denunciation over the Paris Climate Change Agreement. | :29:31. | :29:33. | |
But she's now hoping to combine toughness with a search | :29:34. | :29:36. | |
The real prize fight here will be Mr Trump's first presidential bout | :29:37. | :29:40. | |
On his way here, President Trump acknowledged the possibility Russia | :29:41. | :29:52. | |
interfered in the American elections, at the same time | :29:53. | :29:54. | |
he accused Russia of deliberate destabilisation | :29:55. | :29:56. | |
These are charges denied by Vladimir Putin and the Kremlin. | :29:57. | :30:00. | |
The two presidents may find some common ground but this very personal | :30:01. | :30:03. | |
contest symbolises deep divisions among the wider leadership | :30:04. | :30:05. | |
of the most powerful economies in the world. | :30:06. | :30:08. | |
Disputes over trade and how to confront North Korea are among | :30:09. | :30:11. | |
China, with Russia, wants to keep the focus on dialogue. | :30:12. | :30:17. | |
The Prime Minister, Theresa May, has come to Hamburg pledging | :30:18. | :30:20. | |
to continue her campaign to outlaw the financing of violent extremism. | :30:21. | :30:24. | |
She will present new ideas for international co-oporation | :30:25. | :30:26. | |
to try to identify and close down even small-scale channelling | :30:27. | :30:29. | |
All summits throw division into sharp relief but still this | :30:30. | :30:42. | |
We'll speak to the former UK ambassador to Russia, | :30:43. | :30:49. | |
Sir Tony Brenton, at 7:10am this morning. | :30:50. | :30:54. | |
NHS trusts in England says core mental | :30:55. | :30:56. | |
health services are being overwhelmed because of | :30:57. | :30:58. | |
A survey by NHS Providers also found more than three quarters of mental | :30:59. | :31:02. | |
health trusts think extra money pledged at national level | :31:03. | :31:05. | |
The Department of Health says there is a commitment to seeing | :31:06. | :31:08. | |
The senior judge who will lead the Grenfell Tower Public Inquiry | :31:09. | :31:16. | |
has faced angry questions from survivors of the fire and local | :31:17. | :31:19. | |
residents at a public meeting last night. | :31:20. | :31:21. | |
Sir Martin Moore-Bick has been accused of ignoring calls for him | :31:22. | :31:24. | |
to consider the social issues which affect public housing. | :31:25. | :31:27. | |
One resident accused him of doing a hatchet job on the inquiry, | :31:28. | :31:30. | |
Citizens Advice is calling on ministers to stop the roll out | :31:31. | :31:34. | |
of the new welfare benefit, Universal Credit. | :31:35. | :31:36. | |
The charity says problems with the benefit are forcing people | :31:37. | :31:39. | |
into debt, and say tens of thousands of people will face financial | :31:40. | :31:42. | |
hardship unless improvements are made. | :31:43. | :31:43. | |
Ministers insist the benefit is working. | :31:44. | :31:51. | |
A former manager of the car manufacturer Audi has been charged | :31:52. | :31:55. | |
in the United States with ordering staff to cheat emissions tests. | :31:56. | :31:57. | |
The US Justice Department accused Giovanni Pamio of conspiracy | :31:58. | :32:00. | |
to defraud the United States and violating the Clean Air Act. | :32:01. | :32:03. | |
Audi's parent company, Volkswagen, has already admitted to cheating | :32:04. | :32:05. | |
on vehicle emission tests in the US and fined nearly $3 billion. | :32:06. | :32:12. | |
A new gallery will open in David Hockney's hometown | :32:13. | :32:15. | |
of Bradford today to coincide with his 80th | :32:16. | :32:17. | |
The David Hockney Gallery, at Cartwright Hall, houses | :32:18. | :32:20. | |
the largest public collection of his early artworks from Bradford | :32:21. | :32:22. | |
The display also includes family photos and previously unseen footage | :32:23. | :32:26. | |
Those are the main stories this morning. Let's talk to Mike, shall | :32:27. | :32:47. | |
we. The sun, oh, yes it is, it is glorious, although hopefully not as | :32:48. | :32:52. | |
hot as yesterday, because that was a real scorcher. Yes, I'm comfortable. | :32:53. | :32:58. | |
It is perfect at the moment, I would say, I don't know, 20 degrees, and | :32:59. | :33:03. | |
it won't be as bad as yesterday, as we saw on the courts, Del Potro | :33:04. | :33:08. | |
throwing water onto the crowd to help them. This is a perfect scene, | :33:09. | :33:13. | |
isn't it, this time of day, on my balcony, like Romeo and Juliet. The | :33:14. | :33:17. | |
covers are on and then in the distance the retractable roof being | :33:18. | :33:22. | |
built on court number one. Fabulous scenes as people get ready for a | :33:23. | :33:26. | |
fantastic Friday, especially for the Brits. | :33:27. | :33:27. | |
There is a huge day ahead here Wimbledon with four British | :33:28. | :33:30. | |
players on court aiming for a place in the fourth round. | :33:31. | :33:33. | |
Andy Murray and Aljaz Bedene are both in action later but it's | :33:34. | :33:38. | |
the women's draw that's getting really interesting. | :33:39. | :33:40. | |
Heather Watson is first on Centre Court against former world | :33:41. | :33:43. | |
That should be a fascinating contest. | :33:44. | :33:56. | |
But the new favourite for the women's title | :33:57. | :34:03. | |
is Johanna Konta - she plays Maria Sakkari of Greece. | :34:04. | :34:06. | |
Konta has moved into pole position after the Eastbourne champion | :34:07. | :34:08. | |
Obviously we can't write off the number one seed Angelique Kerber | :34:09. | :34:13. | |
- last year's beaten finalist, you'll remember - | :34:14. | :34:16. | |
who beat Kirsten Flipkens in two hard-fought sets yesterday. | :34:17. | :34:19. | |
There were some extremely distressing scenes out on court | :34:20. | :34:23. | |
17 as the American player Bethanie Mattek-Sands suffered | :34:24. | :34:25. | |
Bethanie Mattek-Sands of the United States lost the second set tiebreak. | :34:26. | :34:42. | |
This is the fourth point of the final set. Suffers a really horrible | :34:43. | :34:47. | |
fall and immediately clutching her knee and shouting, help me. Her team | :34:48. | :34:51. | |
eventually come on to help her, along with her opponent. A medical | :34:52. | :34:57. | |
team was brought onto the court as well and was given oxygen. She has | :34:58. | :35:02. | |
made her way back to the clubhouse. It obviously is a very serious knee | :35:03. | :35:09. | |
injury. You could feel the pain when she was crying out "Please, please | :35:10. | :35:15. | |
help me, help me". We wish her a speedy recovery. | :35:16. | :35:17. | |
Kyle Edmond did his best to make it FIVE Britons in round three | :35:18. | :35:21. | |
He said he "lacked a bit of maturity" in his first experience | :35:22. | :35:25. | |
of Centre Court, after he lost in straight sets to Gael Monfils. | :35:26. | :35:29. | |
First-time playing out there. It was a really good experience for me. I | :35:30. | :35:38. | |
am sure a lot of players would say it is the most famous or biggest | :35:39. | :35:44. | |
court in tennis. So, being British, growing up watching tennis and | :35:45. | :35:48. | |
Wimbledon, to get the chance to play out there is something you will | :35:49. | :35:50. | |
always remember. The seven-time champion | :35:51. | :35:51. | |
Roger Federer is still looking very good - he had a bit of a rocky start | :35:52. | :35:57. | |
against Dusan Lajovic but still came And another former champion, | :35:58. | :36:01. | |
Novak Djokovic, only needed an hour Djokovic said afterwards | :36:02. | :36:05. | |
he was puzzled by John McEnroe's comments that he was | :36:06. | :36:09. | |
the "Tiger Woods of tennis". Away from the tennis, | :36:10. | :36:13. | |
there was a remarkable first day in the job for the New England | :36:14. | :36:16. | |
cricket captain Joe Root. He hit an unbeaten 184 | :36:17. | :36:19. | |
on the opening day of the first test against South Africa at Lord's, | :36:20. | :36:22. | |
to rescue his side, who'd been in some trouble after | :36:23. | :36:25. | |
losing early wickets. You are always proud of yourself | :36:26. | :36:44. | |
when you get runs as a player. If you want to set the example as a | :36:45. | :36:47. | |
player it is important that you score runs. It is just the start, it | :36:48. | :36:53. | |
is only the first game. If I want to really push things on in the future | :36:54. | :36:58. | |
than I am going to have to do it more consistently. | :36:59. | :37:03. | |
The Tour de France has been riddled with crashes | :37:04. | :37:06. | |
but the riders managed to avoid a spectator's umbrella on stage six. | :37:07. | :37:09. | |
It was won by sprinter Marcel Kittel but Chris Froome | :37:10. | :37:12. | |
We're told by senior sources at Manchester United that they've | :37:13. | :37:17. | |
agreed a fee of around 75 million pounds with Everton for striker | :37:18. | :37:20. | |
A move that has been confirmed is Manchester City Women's Toni Duggan, | :37:21. | :37:31. | |
She is the first English player to join the Spanish giants | :37:32. | :37:35. | |
The British Irish Lions captain Sam Warburton says he has | :37:36. | :37:40. | |
unfinished business ahead of tomorrow's third and deciding | :37:41. | :37:42. | |
Warburton missed the series decider in Australia four years ago | :37:43. | :37:46. | |
For the last four years in the back of my mind I've had, you know, this | :37:47. | :38:02. | |
tour, I have set my sights on this tour, and I wanted to be in the test | :38:03. | :38:06. | |
team to play the last game. It didn't happen and you just accept | :38:07. | :38:10. | |
it. I was delighted when I heard my name read out for the third test and | :38:11. | :38:15. | |
to potentially win it. It doesn't get much bigger, this time we will | :38:16. | :38:20. | |
build up to that huge decider in New Zealand. Back here at Wimbledon, | :38:21. | :38:25. | |
what a big day for Heather Watson against Victoria Azarenka. She is | :38:26. | :38:35. | |
the next to try as in Game, Set and Mug challenge. | :38:36. | :38:37. | |
Welcome, everybody to the BBC Breakfast summer tennis talent and | :38:38. | :38:49. | |
this is Game, Set and Mug. I am delighted to introduce the current | :38:50. | :38:54. | |
Wimbledon doubles champion Heather Watson. Morning to you, Heather. | :38:55. | :38:58. | |
Good morning. Thank you for doing this. Are you a little bit nervous? | :38:59. | :39:04. | |
Very nervous. Have you had practice, any technique? Couple of practice | :39:05. | :39:08. | |
runs and I have some different techniques to try. Great, well, | :39:09. | :39:12. | |
let's see how you will go. I have my time on. You have 30 seconds. Are | :39:13. | :39:20. | |
you ready? Yes. Here we go, three, two, one. Go. Nearly. No. Shot too | :39:21. | :39:29. | |
far. You have got it right? No. We are ten seconds in and one ball has | :39:30. | :39:35. | |
gone in. Two also have gone in. Just overshot with that one. 15 seconds | :39:36. | :39:40. | |
gone. So, we have just coming up to ten seconds remaining. Just missed | :39:41. | :39:44. | |
that one. Keep going, come on. Just overshot it a little bit. Now this | :39:45. | :39:49. | |
technique does not seem to be working for you, Heather. Three, | :39:50. | :40:01. | |
two, one, time's up! No! Let's see, come on. Oh, no! Shall we tell | :40:02. | :40:07. | |
everyone at home how many you got? Four. Anyway... Not that bad. Good! | :40:08. | :40:16. | |
In 30 seconds. No, it is in good. It is hard, isn't it? Yeah. Thank you | :40:17. | :40:24. | |
for trying it for being a good sport. | :40:25. | :40:24. | |
Oh, you can see what it means to the players. Don't let it put you off at | :40:25. | :40:31. | |
all. It doesn't matter. You can follow the action on the BBC | :40:32. | :40:37. | |
starting 11:30am. Let's have a look at the litre -- leaderboard. | :40:38. | :40:46. | |
I can't get over this in second place, Charlie on seven? Charlie on | :40:47. | :40:55. | |
seven? Surely at some point that is gonna have to be beaten and I am | :40:56. | :40:59. | |
rubbing my hands in expectation that me and Carol will step up to the | :41:00. | :41:03. | |
challenge of. Oh, brave words. Even Andy Murray was impressed. I know. | :41:04. | :41:11. | |
Yeah, I might have a go later and we will try with Mo Farah later on to | :41:12. | :41:15. | |
see how he gets on. Apparently he is really up to it. Look forward to it, | :41:16. | :41:17. | |
thanks very much. You're watching big is the Breakfast | :41:18. | :41:19. | |
on BBC News. Around 80 police officers have been | :41:20. | :41:26. | |
hurt in clashes with protesters NHS trusts are warning that mental | :41:27. | :41:29. | |
health services in England risk being over-run by rising demand | :41:30. | :41:34. | |
and staff shortages. Carol's at Wimbledon with a look | :41:35. | :41:39. | |
at this morning's weather. And of course the glorious | :41:40. | :41:50. | |
atmosphere, Carol, soon to be on as we have four Brits kicking off, but | :41:51. | :41:57. | |
will they be as hot as yesterday? Not quite as hot as yesterday, Naga. | :41:58. | :42:04. | |
Yesterday, Heathrow reached 32.2 Celsius, so it was hot and humid. | :42:05. | :42:08. | |
Today the maximum temperatures are going to be 28, maybe 29, still | :42:09. | :42:13. | |
pretty hot and it is also going to be humoured as well. In fact, | :42:14. | :42:17. | |
yesterday of course play was stopped on court number three but because | :42:18. | :42:22. | |
two spectators fainted. So, if you are coming down, in fact, out in the | :42:23. | :42:27. | |
heat, take breaks, cover up, don't forget sunscreen and drink plenty of | :42:28. | :42:32. | |
water. It sounds obvious but when you are having fun, especially on a | :42:33. | :42:36. | |
court where you can't get out, it is worth having that in mind. The | :42:37. | :42:39. | |
forecast for Wimbledon today is a dry one. We are starting with some | :42:40. | :42:43. | |
sunshine. Through the day at bit more cloud will build, so we have | :42:44. | :42:47. | |
bright or some intervals with temperatures up to 28 or 29 Celsius, | :42:48. | :42:53. | |
so hot and humid. For most of us today, we are looking at a lot of | :42:54. | :42:57. | |
dry weather. There is some rain around across the north of the | :42:58. | :43:00. | |
country. If we start in the south where we are, blue skies and cloud | :43:01. | :43:04. | |
building at the moment. It is pleasant. The temperature in London | :43:05. | :43:10. | |
is 19 Celsius. As we move to East Anglia into northern England, a lot | :43:11. | :43:14. | |
of dry weather. We have showers in the north. Then into Scotland we are | :43:15. | :43:18. | |
looking at some rain. Through the day some of the rain in the east of | :43:19. | :43:22. | |
Scotland will be heavy but at the moment there is the odd heavy burst | :43:23. | :43:26. | |
at it is moving through quickly. For Northern Ireland, you have cloud and | :43:27. | :43:30. | |
drizzle this morning. Equally, there will be some bright spells around. | :43:31. | :43:34. | |
And then as we come across Wales, some sunshine and bright spells. The | :43:35. | :43:39. | |
same for south-west England. The temperature continuing to rise quite | :43:40. | :43:43. | |
quickly in the morning sunshine. The same can be said from | :43:44. | :43:47. | |
Gloucestershire to the Home Counties and all areas south, so, for | :43:48. | :43:53. | |
southern coastal counties. Through the day the rain in Scotland will | :43:54. | :43:57. | |
push steadily southwards. And through the day too the cloud will | :43:58. | :44:01. | |
build from the west, so it will be bright at times, all we have some | :44:02. | :44:05. | |
intervals. We don't have wall-to-wall blue skies. | :44:06. | :44:09. | |
Temperature-wise up to about 28 or 29. If you are in the rain it will | :44:10. | :44:14. | |
feel a bit fresher. We are looking at probably 18 into the low 20s. | :44:15. | :44:18. | |
Now, as we head through the evening and overnight, the weather front | :44:19. | :44:22. | |
moves southwards, taking the band of cloud and showers with it as it does | :44:23. | :44:27. | |
so. Behind it under clear skies in Scotland and sheltered areas | :44:28. | :44:30. | |
temperatures will dip into single figures. It will be much cooler for | :44:31. | :44:36. | |
you. Ahead of that band of cloud we have a hot and Hubert Knight | :44:37. | :44:40. | |
especially in the south-east. Tomorrow we start with a lot of | :44:41. | :44:47. | |
sunshine -- hot and humid night. We are also going to see more cloud | :44:48. | :44:52. | |
developing in the west, so, Wales, south-west England, low cloud and | :44:53. | :44:56. | |
sea fog along the Bristol Channel and showers in the south-west. It | :44:57. | :44:59. | |
should be dry in the south-east with some sunshine and temperatures into | :45:00. | :45:04. | |
the mid to high 20s but not as high as today. And later on Saturday AT | :45:05. | :45:08. | |
weather front and is into the north-west Scotland. On Sunday, that | :45:09. | :45:13. | |
thinks southwards across Scotland and Northern Ireland. Ahead of it | :45:14. | :45:17. | |
for England and Wales, as temperatures rise, we see some | :45:18. | :45:20. | |
showers develop. Some of those could be thundery and as we go through the | :45:21. | :45:24. | |
day and the weather front moves south they will join forces. So the | :45:25. | :45:27. | |
next few days, the weather is changing a bit and it is not going | :45:28. | :45:33. | |
to be quite as hot as it has been. But Charlie and Naga, that doesn't | :45:34. | :45:37. | |
mean we are reaching the next Ice Age by any stretch. Well, I'm glad | :45:38. | :45:44. | |
we've got that reassurance, Carol! Just tell me, yesterday, there were | :45:45. | :45:48. | |
quite a few people in the crowd is really struggling. Something like 60 | :45:49. | :45:52. | |
people treated for heat related problems. Something particular about | :45:53. | :45:53. | |
the conditions affecting people? It was just a really hot, humid, | :45:54. | :46:03. | |
sticky day. When you are inside the courts it is even hotter. You are | :46:04. | :46:07. | |
sitting there, some sitting in direct sunlight, so you forget. When | :46:08. | :46:13. | |
we go abroad you always room to put your sunscreen on. Sometimes in this | :46:14. | :46:17. | |
country we forget how hot it can get, and also how high the UV levels | :46:18. | :46:20. | |
are. It is a warning for people. Keep | :46:21. | :46:24. | |
yourself covered up. Carroll, we will talk to you later. The thing | :46:25. | :46:29. | |
is, you cannot have a big parasol, because you block the views of other | :46:30. | :46:34. | |
people. You can have those hats you see people wearing. | :46:35. | :46:39. | |
We are talking now about prepaid funerals. | :46:40. | :46:44. | |
Apparently about 1 million people have these in place, but it is an | :46:45. | :46:50. | |
industry that is not highly regulated, is that fair to say? That | :46:51. | :46:55. | |
is very fair to say. It has grown massively. We often talk about | :46:56. | :46:59. | |
quickly growing industries in the financial world, with the not being | :47:00. | :47:03. | |
on top of it, and this could be of those issues. | :47:04. | :47:06. | |
Good morning, everybody. Over the past decade, five times more people | :47:07. | :47:09. | |
have prepaid funeral plans than before. More than 1 million people | :47:10. | :47:14. | |
now have them in place. The consumer group Fairer Finance has therefore | :47:15. | :47:17. | |
decided to look into this, and flagged up some big bombs with the | :47:18. | :47:19. | |
industry. They found evidence of high | :47:20. | :47:21. | |
pressure sales tactics, They also found a lack | :47:22. | :47:23. | |
of understanding from customers about what they were actually | :47:24. | :47:26. | |
getting for their money, what type of funeral costs would be | :47:27. | :47:29. | |
covered and what would still need All big problem is that he would | :47:30. | :47:43. | |
have, if you have something like this in place, you would want it to | :47:44. | :47:47. | |
be straightforward. So companies that are offering funeral plans are | :47:48. | :47:51. | |
not regulated by law, like a lot of other financial products that you | :47:52. | :47:54. | |
buy might be. If these companies go bust, you might not get your money | :47:55. | :47:58. | |
back, or have your wishes carried out. So it is a complicated | :47:59. | :48:02. | |
situation if it doesn't go to plan. And of all situations, you would | :48:03. | :48:04. | |
want this to. Let's talk to Alison Crake, | :48:05. | :48:06. | |
National Association Good morning. The situation is not | :48:07. | :48:15. | |
ideal, is it? If you have paid the something and it does not | :48:16. | :48:18. | |
materialise once you have passed away and your family has to deal | :48:19. | :48:21. | |
with it. What kind of things you paying for? How do you pay for it? | :48:22. | :48:26. | |
There are a number of prepaid plans on the market. Some of them are very | :48:27. | :48:30. | |
good. There are a number of options available. Some of them will be of | :48:31. | :48:33. | |
the instalment plan and some will be a lump sum plan. So, if once you | :48:34. | :48:38. | |
have paid to that, you pay a monthly instalment, what then can go wrong | :48:39. | :48:42. | |
once you get to the moment of your passing and your family has to deal | :48:43. | :48:47. | |
with it? Where are the problems? One of the things we ask people to look | :48:48. | :48:51. | |
at very closely, when they are purchasing a plan, is to look at | :48:52. | :48:55. | |
things such as third-party costs. Third-party costs are often referred | :48:56. | :49:00. | |
to as disbursements. Those are things like burial fees or cremation | :49:01. | :49:04. | |
fees which can be included in a plan. But -- some plans will make an | :49:05. | :49:09. | |
allowance towards those costs, sometimes it is a lump sum, and some | :49:10. | :49:13. | |
will guarantee. That is a very important point and a very important | :49:14. | :49:16. | |
question to ask if you are purchasing a plan. Have you seen | :49:17. | :49:20. | |
examples where one of your members has been arranging a funeral which | :49:21. | :49:26. | |
causes great stress to families, when they find out not everything is | :49:27. | :49:30. | |
in place? One of the difficulties is that when people are purchasing a | :49:31. | :49:33. | |
planet is very important to make sure is included within that plan. | :49:34. | :49:39. | |
-- purchasing a plan. When plans have an element were a funeral | :49:40. | :49:44. | |
director is named as a preferred or nominated funeral director, one of | :49:45. | :49:47. | |
the complications is that if that funeral director did not know at the | :49:48. | :49:50. | |
time that the plan was purchased that they lectured the nominated | :49:51. | :49:53. | |
funeral director, what happens in that case, is that the funeral | :49:54. | :49:57. | |
director is approached at the time of need and it is explained that a | :49:58. | :50:01. | |
plan is in place. Then the funeral director has to look at a plan. If | :50:02. | :50:05. | |
those costs have not been covered or it is only a partial amount it can | :50:06. | :50:09. | |
sometimes mean that the family have to pay an additional amount at the | :50:10. | :50:13. | |
time of the funeral, which of course, you do not want to have | :50:14. | :50:15. | |
battered additional distressing conversation with the family at the | :50:16. | :50:19. | |
time of need. -- have that additional. And if one of these | :50:20. | :50:23. | |
companies goes bust, you're not actually protected in a lot of | :50:24. | :50:26. | |
cases, to either have your plans carried out or even get your money | :50:27. | :50:30. | |
back. Does they need to be more regular share in this area? I think | :50:31. | :50:34. | |
so. At the NFT we would certainly encourage greater oversight of the | :50:35. | :50:41. | |
funeral prepayment plans. -- at the NFD. We would certainly like that | :50:42. | :50:46. | |
looked at closely. What we think is very important is that anybody | :50:47. | :50:49. | |
considering purchasing a plan does ask those important questions about | :50:50. | :50:53. | |
how their money is invested, what is included in the plan, it is very | :50:54. | :50:56. | |
important to see what is included, and whether that is included in its | :50:57. | :51:02. | |
totality, to make sure that it is guaranteed or whether it is a | :51:03. | :51:05. | |
contribution, and to make sure that their chosen funeral director is | :51:06. | :51:08. | |
actually informed and has an advance in place. Do you think the | :51:09. | :51:13. | |
regulators have been slow to keep up with this? What was it, more than | :51:14. | :51:19. | |
five times over the last ten years, more than 1 million people paying | :51:20. | :51:23. | |
for a product? I think the time is right now. We have this report here | :51:24. | :51:27. | |
which is very informative and I think now is the time for greater | :51:28. | :51:30. | |
oversight of the funeral planning marketing general. Because what is | :51:31. | :51:34. | |
important is that the people purchasing these plans have the | :51:35. | :51:38. | |
assurances they need to make sure that the plan that they have chosen | :51:39. | :51:42. | |
is right for them, write to the family, and includes what they asked | :51:43. | :51:46. | |
for. Alison, thank you. Alison Craik from the national Association of | :51:47. | :51:49. | |
funeral directors. There you go, guys. A pretty big industry now. As | :51:50. | :51:55. | |
it was mentioned in the report, it is competitive EIA and people making | :51:56. | :51:58. | |
accidental claims. This is another one where lots of smaller companies | :51:59. | :52:02. | |
are starting to provide these things and it is hard to know if you have | :52:03. | :52:07. | |
the right one. Could I ask, I am just curious, the idea about a named | :52:08. | :52:11. | |
funeral provider. If you have a plan with a named funeral provider, what | :52:12. | :52:14. | |
is the point if they do not know? How does that work? Well, this is | :52:15. | :52:19. | |
one of the difficulties and one of the things we will ask them to look | :52:20. | :52:23. | |
out. In our scenario, our ideal scenario, that would be if you | :52:24. | :52:27. | |
purchase plan and you have a preferred funeral director or a | :52:28. | :52:30. | |
named funeral director, that that funeral director is conducted within | :52:31. | :52:33. | |
the cooling off period of the plan, and that that funeral direct them | :52:34. | :52:37. | |
has the opportunity to say, yes, I agree to those terms of conditions | :52:38. | :52:41. | |
and I accept that plan. That gives the additional reassurance to the | :52:42. | :52:44. | |
purchase -- to the person that has purchased the plan that everything | :52:45. | :52:46. | |
is in place. Thank you. If you've flown long haul | :52:47. | :52:49. | |
over the past 40 years, chances are you've | :52:50. | :52:52. | |
been on a Boeing 747 - It revolutionised air | :52:53. | :52:54. | |
travel around the world, making it possible to fly | :52:55. | :52:58. | |
further and for less money. But could the era of big jets | :52:59. | :53:01. | |
be coming to an end? Our transport correspondent, | :53:02. | :53:04. | |
Richard Westcott reports. Out of the biggest hangar in the | :53:05. | :53:15. | |
world can the world's gives the plane. It is the giant aeroplane | :53:16. | :53:19. | |
that shrank the world. Two and a half times bigger than anything else | :53:20. | :53:24. | |
at the time. With its iconic romp, Boeing's 747 brought cheap flying to | :53:25. | :53:29. | |
the masses. It is nearly bankrupted the company, but ended up saving it. | :53:30. | :53:38. | |
This is the aeroplane that gave wings to the world. Because of its | :53:39. | :53:43. | |
size, because of its range, and its economy. It made it possible for the | :53:44. | :53:48. | |
airlines to fly economically anywhere in the world. But 50 years | :53:49. | :53:56. | |
on, airlines prefer smaller, more fuel-efficient planes, and rowing | :53:57. | :54:00. | |
says it may finally stop making the jumbo jet. -- Bolling says. -- | :54:01. | :54:10. | |
Boeing. But often all that hard work and all those miles, this is where | :54:11. | :54:14. | |
747s comes required retirement. In less than a day, an entire jumbo jet | :54:15. | :54:19. | |
has been reduced to that pile of rubble there. They are just smashing | :54:20. | :54:28. | |
up the last piece of use large -- fuselage, and all that aluminium | :54:29. | :54:32. | |
will be turned into beer cans. Some of these things are going back to | :54:33. | :54:35. | |
the airline, but others have been bought by private collectors, who | :54:36. | :54:38. | |
will turn them into quirky office furniture. I can't get the film is | :54:39. | :54:45. | |
working, though. They have slightly different plans for this jumbo jet. | :54:46. | :54:49. | |
A very rich person has bought the top half of it and apparently he is | :54:50. | :54:53. | |
going to turn it into some kind of social area. Or office. And if we | :54:54. | :54:57. | |
actually go into the cockpit, you have got all the controls, and | :54:58. | :55:02. | |
apparently lots of enthusiasts from all over the world by this kind of | :55:03. | :55:11. | |
stuff. 1970, and the very first 747 lands in Britain. It made a big | :55:12. | :55:22. | |
impression on one firm that day. There was a huge thing in the press | :55:23. | :55:26. | |
about this first aeroplane coming in across the Atlantic, Pan Am, and so | :55:27. | :55:33. | |
I had to go and see it. It was a big cuddly aeroplane, it did its best to | :55:34. | :55:38. | |
look after you. It goes for miles, it never runs out of fuel, the | :55:39. | :55:44. | |
systems on it, the 400 series, which is the last one, they were modern | :55:45. | :55:47. | |
systems common digital aeroplane, everything worked. What more could a | :55:48. | :55:53. | |
pilot want? The jumbo is not the only giant plane struggling for | :55:54. | :55:57. | |
orders at the moment. Archrival is a bus make the even bigger a 380, but | :55:58. | :56:02. | |
sales have been poor and they have also slashed production. -- | :56:03. | :56:08. | |
archrivals Airbus make the even bigger A380. But the jumbo jet is | :56:09. | :56:14. | |
not finished yet. That knows comes up to carry freight. Jumbo jets full | :56:15. | :56:20. | |
of freight will be filling the skies for many years to come. I do enjoy | :56:21. | :56:27. | |
seeing planes built. Yes, and those sped up versions of the plane being | :56:28. | :56:29. | |
destroyed a great. The phenomenon's already | :56:30. | :56:30. | |
caused chaos at Wimbledon. We'll find out what it is and why | :56:31. | :56:34. | |
it happens later on. Time now to get the news, | :56:35. | :56:37. | |
travel and weather where you are. Now though, it's back | :56:38. | :00:04. | |

There were violent clashes last night in Hamburg ahead | :02:08. | :02:14. | |
The first talks between President Trump and President Putin will take | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
place today. There were violent clashes last | :02:18. | :02:18. | |
night in Hamburg ahead Police used water cannon and pepper | :02:19. | :02:20. | |
spray on masked protestors Our diplomatic correspondent, | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
James Robbins, reports A global summit automatically | :02:25. | :02:27. | |
triggers protest from those who accuse the world's most powerful | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
leaders of serving narrow interests. "Welcome to hell," is one slogan, | :02:31. | :02:37. | |
to greet the presidents and prime ministers who are divided over | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
a huge range of issues. But most eyes are focused | :02:42. | :02:44. | |
on the controversial figure This summit host, Germany's | :02:45. | :02:47. | |
Chancellor Angela Merkel, facing elections, has | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
shown her anger in the past over the President's denunciation over | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
the Paris Climate Change Agreement. But she's now hoping to combine | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
toughness with a search The real prize fight here will be | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
Mr Trump's first presidential bout On his way here, President Trump | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
acknowledged the possibility Russia interfered in the American | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
elections, at the same time he accused Russia of | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
deliberate destabilisation These are charges denied | :03:19. | :03:19. | |
by Vladimir Putin and the Kremlin. The two presidents may find some | :03:20. | :03:30. | |
common ground but this very personal contest symbolises deep divisions | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
among the wider leadership of the most powerful | :03:34. | :03:35. | |
economies in the world. Disputes over trade and how | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
to confront North Korea are among China, with Russia, wants to keep | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
the focus on dialogue. The Prime Minister, Theresa May, | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
has come to Hamburg pledging to continue her campaign to outlaw | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
the financing of violent extremism. She will present new ideas | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
for international co-oporation to try to identify and close down | :03:56. | :03:57. | |
even small-scale channelling All summits throw division | :03:58. | :03:59. | |
into sharp relief but still this Our diplomatic correspondent James | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
Robbins is in Hamburg this morning. James, good to see you. So, this is | :04:05. | :04:28. | |
all about, let's start, Shalvey, first of all, on the first meeting | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
in public between Donald Trump and President Putin and how that will be | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
displayed and how they will position themselves, what the election | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
controversy interference, military positioning as well? Yes, it is a | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
hugely important prize fight, some have called it, and it is easy of | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
course to trivialise these things but the fact is these Dollman this | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
is a contest between two very powerful individual personalities | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
used, frankly, to the idea of settling things either by fighting | :05:00. | :05:04. | |
mentally or even physically. Many people see Donald Trump as a | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
wrestler and President Vladimir Putin as the judo champion that he | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
is. They will be sizing each other up, I think that is a really | :05:14. | :05:19. | |
important part of the personality in politics - Donald Trump physically | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
towers over the Russian President, five foot seven against 6-foot two | :05:23. | :05:31. | |
but President Putin has years of foreign affairs experience, whereas | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
Donald Trump has been in power less than six months. President Putin has | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
been at the top for 17 years. This is a real contest of wills, of | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
words, of body language, sizing each other up to see if they can find a | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
way forward despite the enormous costs between them. OK, James, for | :05:48. | :05:50. | |
the moment, thank you very much. In ten minutes we'll speak | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
to a former UK ambassador to Russia. Just talking about how that meeting | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
might go today. Mental health services in England | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
are being overwhelmed by a combination of rising demand | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
and staff shortages according There are concerns extra government | :06:05. | :06:06. | |
money designed to improve access for patients needing help is failing | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
to reach frontline services. Two years ago Alice Victor | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
was struggling with an eating disorder but her GP told her it | :06:15. | :06:25. | |
would take at least a year before In the end Alice went private but, | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
thinking back, she remembers It takes so much to come out and say | :06:30. | :06:34. | |
I need help and I need professional help, and then to not | :06:35. | :06:45. | |
get it is horrible. And having to wait longer | :06:46. | :06:47. | |
and longer, you get stuck in the same unhealthy thought | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
patterns and your mental A survey of bosses at mental health | :06:51. | :06:52. | |
trusts across England paints a picture of services | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
under pressure. 70% expect demand to | :06:57. | :06:58. | |
increase this year. Two out of three trusts say | :06:59. | :07:05. | |
they don't have enough staff to cope, particularly mental health | :07:06. | :07:08. | |
nurses and psychiatrists. And 80% say extra government money | :07:09. | :07:10. | |
intended for mental health is not We have seen many, many more | :07:11. | :07:13. | |
campaigns up and down the country really talking about breaking down | :07:14. | :07:19. | |
the stigma of presenting for mental health treatment, but that means | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
that demand is going And I think we are at risk of mental | :07:26. | :07:27. | |
health trust being overwhelmed The Department of Health in England | :07:28. | :07:33. | |
said it expected NHS bosses to make sure an extra billion pounds each | :07:34. | :07:39. | |
year reached frontline mental health Meanwhile, a BBC Radio 5 Live | :07:40. | :07:42. | |
investigation has found a 16% rise in ambulance callouts to people | :07:43. | :07:49. | |
suffering from suspected mental health problems, adding to the signs | :07:50. | :07:52. | |

the Grenfell Tower Public Inquiry has faced angry questions | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
from survivors of the fire and local residents at a public | :08:04. | :08:06. | |
meeting last night. Sir Martin Moore-Bick has been | :08:07. | :08:08. | |
accused of ignoring calls for him to consider the social issues | :08:09. | :08:11. | |
which affect public housing. One resident accused him of doing | :08:12. | :08:13. | |
a hatchet job on the inquiry, Citizens Advice is calling | :08:14. | :08:17. | |
on ministers to stop the roll out of the new welfare benefit, | :08:18. | :08:23. | |
Universal Credit. The charity says problems | :08:24. | :08:25. | |
with the benefit are forcing people into debt, and say tens of thousands | :08:26. | :08:28. | |
of people will face financial hardship unless | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
improvements are made. Ministers insist the | :08:32. | :08:33. | |
benefit is working. A US hospital is offering to ship | :08:34. | :08:45. | |
an experimental drug to the UK to help treat terminally | :08:46. | :08:48. | |
ill Charlie Gard. The hospital in New York also | :08:49. | :08:50. | |

in David Hockney's hometown of Bradford today to | :09:07. | :09:08. | |
coincide with his 80th The David Hockney Gallery, | :09:09. | :09:10. | |
at Cartwright Hall, houses the largest public collection | :09:11. | :09:13. | |
of his early artworks from Bradford The display also includes family | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
photos and previously unseen footage David Dimbleby is used to dealing | :09:17. | :09:31. | |
with difficult situations on Question Time but he was left | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
red-faced last night when his alarm on his mobile interrupted the | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
programme to tell him it was time for bed. Oh, no. The audience took | :09:39. | :09:44. | |
it in very good spirits and started to laugh. He looked at his phone and | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
turned it off. Here it is. If we ever do Brexit, they won't know what | :09:50. | :09:54. | |
to argue about. The fact is, whether you've voted to leave all remain, it | :09:55. | :09:58. | |
is not a win or lose situation. We are at a fork in the road and we | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
opted for one fork. Now we are in this situation. As it is time for | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
bed. It is bedtime. LAUGHTER APPLAUSE. | :10:09. | :10:14. | |
This is my stopwatch saying it is bedtime. LAUGHTER carry on. I am | :10:15. | :10:23. | |
glad he stayed awake for the rest of it. You know, it happens, doesn't | :10:24. | :10:30. | |
it? It does, still, a little bit embarrassing, but he dealt with it | :10:31. | :10:31. | |
in good humour, didn't he? From Kennedy and Khrushchev, | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
to Reagan and Gorbachev, history between the United States | :10:36. | :10:37. | |
and Russia has been Since Donald Trump took charge | :10:38. | :10:39. | |
of the White House earlier this year, questions have been growing | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
about the future of that So what can we expect when the US | :10:44. | :10:46. | |
President meets Vladimir Putin Greg Dawson has been taking a look | :10:47. | :10:49. | |
at dealings between the two leaders Thank you for your time this | :10:50. | :11:03. | |
morning. There is a danger of if you like trivialising this into body | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
language and the atmosphere around the meeting but that is significant, | :11:09. | :11:14. | |
isn't it, and just talk us through what that will be like? Well, you're | :11:15. | :11:21. | |
right, it is significant. This is the first time these men have met, | :11:22. | :11:25. | |
though they have spoken on the phone. The aim of the meeting for | :11:26. | :11:29. | |
them is to measure the other one and to put on a display for the other | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
one. And they are very different people. Mr Trump is spontaneous, | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
where is Mr Putin is not. I would expect Britain to want to be CoOL | :11:41. | :11:48. | |
and correct and look for common ground. Donald Trump is hamstrung by | :11:49. | :11:53. | |
investigation is going on in Washington and cannot afford to be | :11:54. | :11:59. | |
seen to be friendly with President Putin at this stage. Do they have to | :12:00. | :12:04. | |
think it through in terms of the body language? I know that one of | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
the men is much cooler. Do they have to think about whether they are | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
smiling too much. Whether Donald Trump wants to look like he is being | :12:12. | :12:17. | |
serious. These things matter, don't they? Yes, they do. I mean, Putin | :12:18. | :12:24. | |
wants to be on Russian TV at home as Trump's equal and will not want to | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
be seen standing beside the much taller Trump. He will smile in a | :12:29. | :12:34. | |
courteous way but will also not want to appear to be warm with a country | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
which has presented as being Russia's deepest foe at the moment. | :12:39. | :12:46. | |
Trump, as I have said, is keen to establish a relationship with Putin | :12:47. | :12:49. | |
and has to demonstrate to watch as at home that he is not in Russia's | :12:50. | :12:54. | |
pocket, as he was accused of doing. So, watch for the handshake, watch | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
for the body language, as you say, between them, whether they are close | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
off our part. Crucially, watch out for how long the meeting goes on. At | :13:04. | :13:07. | |
the moment one hour, only half an hour with interpretation. If it is | :13:08. | :13:11. | |
longer, then they have found something to talk about. What do you | :13:12. | :13:15. | |
make of the fact that the briefings from the American diplomats suggest | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
that going into the meeting, Donald Trump has not got a kind of fixed | :13:21. | :13:26. | |
idea of the issues he wants to talk about - now, is it spin or is it | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
believable he would walk in almost with an open mind, with an open | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
brief as to what he wants to say? What is credible is that he is going | :13:36. | :13:39. | |
in without having taken a lot of advice from the people around him. I | :13:40. | :13:45. | |
think he has a clear idea in his own mind what his agenda is. It has been | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
made pretty clear as he has become president he wants to find | :13:50. | :13:52. | |
co-operation with Russia on things like terrorism. Rex Tillerson, who | :13:53. | :13:58. | |
has been with him, said they want to talk about cooperation on Syria. | :13:59. | :14:03. | |
There are a range of issues where, in Donald Trump's view, the US | :14:04. | :14:06. | |
should work closely with Russia and he will try to push that forward, I | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
would guess. Do you think they should be a requirement... I should | :14:11. | :14:14. | |
also add. Sorry. I was just going to ask, Trump betrays himself as a | :14:15. | :14:20. | |
straight talker, he doesn't do the regular political thing. -- | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
portrays. Given what he set about Russian interference in the US | :14:26. | :14:28. | |
election, he said clearly that Russia has been deliberately | :14:29. | :14:33. | |
destabilising parts of the world. I mean, is he almost obliged because | :14:34. | :14:38. | |
of the way he has betrayed himself to say something upfront to the | :14:39. | :14:43. | |
President when they meet face-to-face? Yes, no, that is | :14:44. | :14:50. | |
absolutely right, and Trott position himself for this in his speech | :14:51. | :14:55. | |
yesterday in Poland when he referred to Russian destabilisation in | :14:56. | :14:59. | |
Ukraine. He will want to say to TV cameras afterwards that he raised | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
this issue with Putin, so he will raise it. On the issue of Russian | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
interference in the election, he has been much more reticent. He never | :15:09. | :15:11. | |
confirmed he believed it happen. I suspect that will not play a | :15:12. | :15:16. | |
prominent role as a lot of people in Washington hope that it will. Sir | :15:17. | :15:20. | |
Tony Brenton, thank you for your time. I am just admiring the scene | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
behind you. Very calming despite all this fragile diplomacy that is going | :15:25. | :15:29. | |
on. What a calming scene that is, the Meadows in Cambridge. It is a | :15:30. | :15:32. | |
great place to be. Isn't it lovely? Thank you for your time this | :15:33. | :15:34. | |
morning. It's 07:15 and you're watching | :15:35. | :15:37. | |
Breakfast from BBC News. Around 80 police officers have been | :15:38. | :15:39. | |
hurt in clashes with protesters NHS trusts are warning that mental | :15:40. | :15:43. | |
health services in England risk being over-run by rising demand | :15:44. | :15:49. | |
and staff shortages. Carol's at Wimbledon with a look | :15:50. | :15:51. | |
at this morning's weather. The sun is shining on a Mac. | :15:52. | :16:07. | |
Carroll, what a glorious court that is. -- Carol. | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
Good morning. Look at that, court number three. The court attendance | :16:13. | :16:22. | |
of just took off the covers. This is where some people fainted yesterday, | :16:23. | :16:26. | |
you can see how open it is. If you are coming to Wimbledon anywhere | :16:27. | :16:28. | |
outdoors, don't forget to drink plenty of water, put on your hat and | :16:29. | :16:34. | |
your sunscreen, and get out of the sun when you can. Now, if you are | :16:35. | :16:38. | |
coming to Wimbledon today, the forecast is a dry one. We are | :16:39. | :16:42. | |
starting off with a lot of sunshine, the temperature climbing quickly | :16:43. | :16:46. | |
now, but you will notice more cloud building through the day. So it will | :16:47. | :16:51. | |
be bright and sunny through the day, rather than wall-to-wall blue skies. | :16:52. | :16:55. | |
Not as hot as yesterday but we are still looking at 28 or 29 as the | :16:56. | :17:00. | |
afternoon maximum. For many of us today, it is going to be dry. There | :17:01. | :17:04. | |
will be some sunshine but also rein in the forecast. Especially across | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
Scotland. In southern England, we are off to a dry and right start. | :17:09. | :17:14. | |
Sunny spells already. As we move further north, again through East | :17:15. | :17:16. | |
Anglia and the Midlands into northern England, we are still | :17:17. | :17:20. | |
looking at a scenario. Bits and pieces of cloud and also some | :17:21. | :17:23. | |
sunshine, with rain crossing Scotland. Not particularly heavy at | :17:24. | :17:27. | |
the moment. You may get the odd heavy bursts. Cloudy and damp in | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
Northern Ireland with drizzle. They will brighten up as well. Wales, a | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
fine start to the day. It is in pieces of cloud, especially close to | :17:38. | :17:41. | |
the coast, with fog across parts of Devon and Cornwall, mainly coastal | :17:42. | :17:46. | |
fog, that will burn away. From Gloucestershire, heading towards the | :17:47. | :17:50. | |
Home Counties and southern counties generally, we are off to a sunny | :17:51. | :17:54. | |
start with the temperature rising quite rapidly. Through the course of | :17:55. | :17:57. | |
the day, that rain continues its journey across Scotland. It will be | :17:58. | :18:00. | |
heavy in eastern parts of Scotland, especially north of Edinburgh. And | :18:01. | :18:05. | |
then for western parts of England, as that front approaches, the cloud | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
will also build. Away from that, it is going to be a fine day with some | :18:11. | :18:13. | |
sunshine around. A few showers extending through parts of Wales and | :18:14. | :18:17. | |
into Lincolnshire, but nothing like yesterday. As we head through the | :18:18. | :18:20. | |
evening and overnight, our weather front continues to drift south, as | :18:21. | :18:25. | |
it lands across parts of England and Wales with a few showers in it. In | :18:26. | :18:30. | |
rural areas behind it, in Scotland, it will be chilly, with temperatures | :18:31. | :18:34. | |
in single figures. Ahead of it, especially in the south-east, it | :18:35. | :18:38. | |
will be another hot and humid night, with temperatures falling below 18. | :18:39. | :18:43. | |
As we head into tomorrow, Scotland and northern England, in the | :18:44. | :18:46. | |
north-east where it has been wet, seeing the lion's share of the | :18:47. | :18:50. | |
sunshine. The rest of us will have that weather front producing a bit | :18:51. | :18:54. | |
more cloud. In the west again, a bit more cloud, and sea fog lapping up | :18:55. | :18:58. | |
parts of the Bristol Channel coastline, and showers across the | :18:59. | :19:01. | |
south-west. It should stay dry in the south-east. Later in the day on | :19:02. | :19:05. | |
Saturday, a new weather front comes in across northern Scotland, and on | :19:06. | :19:08. | |
Sunday that will sink southwards across Scotland and Northern | :19:09. | :19:11. | |
Ireland. Ahead of it, and dry and bright start with a few showers. | :19:12. | :19:16. | |
Some of those showers could be heavy and thundery and eventually the rain | :19:17. | :19:19. | |
will join them. Why then, temperatures not as high as they | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
have been, or I going to be in some parts of the UK today. Carol, there | :19:24. | :19:30. | |
is going to be able to shortage. Are you worried? No. I don't really eat | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
butter. Unless it is in chocolate, then I would be worried. Would you | :19:36. | :19:40. | |
eat one of Sean's custard tarts? Apparently he is very good at baking | :19:41. | :19:44. | |
them. I certainly would. I like anything sweet, it is my downfall. I | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
didn't get these hips eating salad. Aren't they worth it? You look | :19:50. | :19:50. | |
fabulous. Thanks, Carroll. So, there is going to be a button | :19:51. | :19:59. | |
shortage. And Sean has declared himself king of the custard tart. | :20:00. | :20:01. | |
This is really started something. Good morning, France has announced | :20:02. | :20:05. | |
plans to ban petrol and diesel cars from 2040 as part of a shift | :20:06. | :20:08. | |
towards electric cars. The country plans to become | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
carbon neutral by 2050. The move has put pressure | :20:12. | :20:17. | |
on Britain to follow suit. The food delivery firm Deliveroo has | :20:18. | :20:23. | |
said it will pay sickness and injury Volvo has also announced similar | :20:24. | :20:35. | |
plans about discontinuing the production of petrol and diesel | :20:36. | :20:39. | |
driven cars. It will be interesting to see of other countries follow | :20:40. | :20:40. | |
this lead. The food delivery firm Deliveroo has | :20:41. | :20:41. | |
said it will pay sickness and injury benefits to its 15,000 riders | :20:42. | :20:44. | |
in the UK if the law is changed. The company says it cannot do it at | :20:45. | :20:54. | |
the moment because it has to classify these curious are | :20:55. | :20:58. | |
self-employed. A big report on what is called the geeky economy is due | :20:59. | :21:02. | |
in the coming weeks, which could see major changes to the ways the likes | :21:03. | :21:06. | |
of deliberate and the treat those who work for them. | :21:07. | :21:14. | |
You could well be disappointed if you're looking forward to cream | :21:15. | :21:17. | |
That's because there could well be a shortage by then. | :21:18. | :21:21. | |
The boss of Arla which is one of the world's largest suppliers | :21:22. | :21:25. | |
of dairy has said that prices have already doubled in some countries. | :21:26. | :21:28. | |
The national farmers union says that talk of a shortage is | :21:29. | :21:32. | |
scaremongering, but we have already seen prices go up lots in the past | :21:33. | :21:36. | |
year when prices have gone up about butter. You have left a of time to | :21:37. | :21:41. | |
worry about our basting. You have to start planning. Some people start | :21:42. | :21:43. | |
deciding their Christmas plans already. I have to decide worrying | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
going to be on Christmas Day this month. You are so popular, Sean. | :21:49. | :21:50. | |

This is a picture of me when I joined the army. | :22:12. | :22:17. | |
They put me in the signals, the Royal Signals. | :22:18. | :22:33. | |
On D-Day I was on night duty and the girls came and woke me up | :22:34. | :22:44. | |
and said, "Come and have a look at all the fighters going over." | :22:45. | :22:51. | |
People often said to me, were you afraid? | :22:52. | :22:58. | |
How do you feel you were treated as a woman in the Army | :22:59. | :23:06. | |
Mind you, some of the barracks were ghastly, and sometimes the food | :23:07. | :23:14. | |
What made you decide to join the Army? | :23:15. | :23:31. | |
The Army was something I always wanted to do, | :23:32. | :23:33. | |
I come from a health background, so I am going to be joining | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
That's me there, the little one in the middle. | :23:39. | :23:42. | |
We were introduced to trousers for the first time, | :23:43. | :23:52. | |
Because girls, I understand, are allowed to shoot and kill? | :23:53. | :24:04. | |
Males and females do nothing different. | :24:05. | :24:08. | |
It means that if and when the time does ever come that a female needs | :24:09. | :24:12. | |
to pull the trigger in combat, she can have 100% confidence | :24:13. | :24:15. | |
in her training that she has been given. | :24:16. | :24:18. | |
How do you think you would have felt about that, maybe having | :24:19. | :24:21. | |
I don't think I would have any trouble. | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
Like you girls, if it were me, I would rather know how to shoot | :24:27. | :24:29. | |
I would recommend any young girl to have a go, | :24:30. | :24:39. | |
Really interesting seeing the two of their meat and compare notes about | :24:40. | :25:09. | |
what it was like then compare to now. -- the two of them compare | :25:10. | :25:15. | |
notes. My favourite story today. People have been in touch with us, | :25:16. | :25:19. | |
sending in photos of their female relatives. The history of women in | :25:20. | :25:26. | |
the armed forces. This is Olivia Smith, in the RAF. She works in | :25:27. | :25:30. | |
aircraft maintenance. That has been sent in by her proud mother | :25:31. | :25:34. | |
Elizabeth. This next picture, Doria Needham, who worked at an ammunition | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
factory. She had her hands filmed for a propaganda films to help the | :25:40. | :25:43. | |
war effort. She also drained -- trained as a driver with in this | :25:44. | :25:48. | |
Elizabeth. Wendy sent in this photo of her and her friends when they | :25:49. | :25:52. | |
served in Cyprus 40 years ago. They still meet every year and redo the | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
photo as the years go by. A lot of proud families getting in touch this | :25:58. | :26:00. | |
morning. Duncan sent in this picture of his 16-year-old daughter Jessica. | :26:01. | :26:05. | |
Not yet in the army itself, but she has reached the rank of sergeant in | :26:06. | :26:10. | |
the army cadets. You get a sense of just how proud people I would these | :26:11. | :26:14. | |
pictures. This has been sent in by Grace Rutherford of her mother, | :26:15. | :26:18. | |
Nellie Baker. Nellie was in the women's royal are forced during the | :26:19. | :26:24. | |
war. -- royal air force. Thank you to sharing your pictures. Keep them | :26:25. | :26:28. | |
coming in. If you have those, send them into the programme. The time is | :26:29. | :26:30. | |
7:26 a.m.. Time Now though it's back | :26:31. | :29:52. | |
to Naga and Charlie. Hello, this is Breakfast with | :29:53. | :29:54. | |
Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty. Let's have a look at our main | :29:55. | :30:06. | |
stories this morning. There were violent clashes last | :30:07. | :30:09. | |
night in Hamburg ahead Police used water cannon and pepper | :30:10. | :30:12. | |
spray on masked protestors The demonstrations came ahead | :30:13. | :30:16. | |
of the highly anticipated first face-to-face talks today | :30:17. | :30:20. | |
between President Trump The summit itself is expected to be | :30:21. | :30:21. | |
divisive as world leaders discuss a wide range of issues, | :30:22. | :30:25. | |
including terrorism, Yes, we can go now to some of the | :30:26. | :30:44. | |
live pictures from Hannah -- Hamburg and this morning we have seen | :30:45. | :30:48. | |
stand-off in the streets of Hamburg - they are some distance away from | :30:49. | :30:53. | |
the G20 summit itself but, as you can see at the moment peaceful | :30:54. | :30:56. | |
protests taking place with a huge police presence and blockades in | :30:57. | :31:03. | |
place. We have seen one or two burning vehicles this morning, | :31:04. | :31:08. | |
burning out, but as you can see this morning, where the cameras are in | :31:09. | :31:11. | |
front of these protesters they are relatively calm at present. Of | :31:12. | :31:15. | |
course, President Trump to meet President Putin a little later on | :31:16. | :31:16. | |
today. NHS trusts in England says core | :31:17. | :31:17. | |
mental health services are being overwhelmed | :31:18. | :31:20. | |
because of rapidly rising demand. A survey by NHS Providers also found | :31:21. | :31:22. | |
more than three quarters of mental health trusts think extra money | :31:23. | :31:25. | |
pledged at national level The Department of Health says | :31:26. | :31:28. | |
there is a commitment to seeing The senior judge who will lead | :31:29. | :31:32. | |
the Grenfell Tower Public Inquiry has faced angry questions | :31:33. | :31:43. | |
from survivors of the fire and local residents at a public | :31:44. | :31:46. | |
meeting last night. Sir Martin Moore-Bick has been | :31:47. | :31:48. | |
accused of ignoring calls for him to consider the social issues | :31:49. | :31:51. | |
which affect public housing. One resident accused him of doing | :31:52. | :31:53. | |
a hatchet job on the inquiry, Citizens Advice is calling | :31:54. | :31:57. | |
on ministers to stop the roll out of the new welfare benefit, | :31:58. | :32:05. | |
Universal Credit. The charity says problems | :32:06. | :32:07. | |
with the benefit are forcing people into debt, and say tens of thousands | :32:08. | :32:10. | |
of people will face financial hardship unless | :32:11. | :32:13. | |
improvements are made. Ministers insist the | :32:14. | :32:14. | |
benefit is working. A former manager of the car | :32:15. | :32:18. | |
manufacturer Audi has been charged in the United States with ordering | :32:19. | :32:21. | |
staff to cheat emissions tests. The US Justice Department accused | :32:22. | :32:24. | |
Giovanni Pamio of conspiracy to defraud the United States | :32:25. | :32:27. | |
and violating the Clean Air Act. Audi's parent company, Volkswagen, | :32:28. | :32:30. | |
has already admitted to cheating on vehicle emission tests in the US | :32:31. | :32:32. | |
and fined nearly $3 billion. A new gallery will open | :32:33. | :32:42. | |
in David Hockney's hometown of Bradford today to coincide | :32:43. | :32:44. | |
with his 80th birthday this week. The David Hockney Gallery, | :32:45. | :32:47. | |
at Cartwright Hall, houses the largest public collection | :32:48. | :32:49. | |
of his early artworks from Bradford The display also includes family | :32:50. | :32:52. | |
photos and previously unseen footage We will have the weather in a few | :32:53. | :33:11. | |
minutes with Carroll but first let's go straight to Wimbledon and Mike is | :33:12. | :33:15. | |
here for us. It is an exciting day for tennis, isn't it, Mike? And | :33:16. | :33:22. | |
after an eventful day, yesterday, the weather caused some problems. As | :33:23. | :33:27. | |
Carol was saying, indeed, yes, good morning, so hot people were fainting | :33:28. | :33:31. | |
but thankfully today it won't be as bad for 2000 people watching here. | :33:32. | :33:44. | |
First up chi -- Nishikori against Agu. Do you know when you made | :33:45. | :33:53. | |
Shadow puppets? We have had great fun making shadows in the past. In | :33:54. | :33:59. | |
the middle, flapping her wings is Carroll. You can stop now. LAUGHTER | :34:00. | :34:05. | |
you can see it is getting cloudy because shadows are disappearing. | :34:06. | :34:12. | |
Anyway, technical staff. It is an unprecedented day for me at least | :34:13. | :34:16. | |
because by this time of Wimbledon you are normally focusing only on | :34:17. | :34:17. | |
Andy Murray or one or two others. There is a huge day ahead | :34:18. | :34:20. | |
here Wimbledon with four British players on court aiming for a place | :34:21. | :34:23. | |
in the fourth round. Heather Watson is first | :34:24. | :34:26. | |
on Centre Court against former world But the new favourite | :34:27. | :34:34. | |
for the women's title is Johanna Konta - | :34:35. | :34:44. | |
she plays Maria Sakkari of Greece. Konta has moved into pole position | :34:45. | :34:46. | |
after the Eastbourne champion Obviously we can't write off | :34:47. | :34:49. | |
the number one seed Angelique Kerber - last year's beaten | :34:50. | :34:55. | |
finalist, you'll remember - who beat Kirsten Flipkens in two | :34:56. | :34:57. | |
hard-fought sets yesterday. There were some extremely | :34:58. | :35:04. | |
distressing scenes out on court 17 as the American player | :35:05. | :35:06. | |
Bethanie Mattek-Sands suffered Bethanie Mattek-Sands | :35:07. | :35:08. | |
of the United States lost This is the fourth | :35:09. | :35:19. | |
point of the final set. Suffers a really horrible fall | :35:20. | :35:32. | |
and immediately clutching her knee Her team eventually come | :35:33. | :35:35. | |
on to help her, along A medical team was brought | :35:36. | :35:41. | |
onto the court as well She has made her way | :35:42. | :35:44. | |
back to the clubhouse. It obviously is a very | :35:45. | :35:48. | |
serious knee injury. It was disturbing hearing her shout, | :35:49. | :35:59. | |
"Please, please help me, help me". Kyle Edmond did his best to make it | :36:00. | :36:02. | |
FIVE Britons in round three He said he "lacked a bit | :36:03. | :36:07. | |
of maturity" in his first experience of Centre Court, after he lost | :36:08. | :36:12. | |
in straight sets to Gael Monfils. It was a really good | :36:13. | :36:15. | |
experience for me. I am sure a lot of players would say | :36:16. | :36:18. | |
it is the most famous or biggest So, being British, growing up | :36:19. | :36:23. | |
watching tennis and Wimbledon, to get the chance to play | :36:24. | :36:26. | |
out there is something The seven-time champion | :36:27. | :36:28. | |
Roger Federer is still looking very He had a bit of a rocky start | :36:29. | :36:34. | |
against Dusan Lajovic but still came And another former champion, | :36:35. | :36:42. | |
Novak Djokovic, only needed an hour Djokovic said afterwards | :36:43. | :36:46. | |
he was puzzled by John McEnroe's comments that he was | :36:47. | :36:50. | |
the "Tiger Woods of tennis". Away from the tennis, | :36:51. | :36:54. | |
there was a remarkable first day in the job for the New England | :36:55. | :36:57. | |
cricket captain Joe Root. He hit an unbeaten 184 | :36:58. | :37:00. | |
on the opening day of the first test against South Africa at Lord's, | :37:01. | :37:03. | |
to rescue his side, who'd been in some trouble after | :37:04. | :37:06. | |
losing early wickets. You are always proud of yourself | :37:07. | :37:08. | |
when you get runs as a player. If you want to set the example | :37:09. | :37:23. | |
as a player it is important that It is just the start, | :37:24. | :37:27. | |
it is only the first game. If I want to really push things | :37:28. | :37:31. | |
on in the future than I am going to have to do | :37:32. | :37:35. | |
it more consistently. The Tour de France has been riddled | :37:36. | :37:38. | |
with crashes but the riders managed to avoid a spectator's | :37:39. | :37:41. | |
umbrella on stage six. It was won by sprinter Marcel Kittel | :37:42. | :37:48. | |
but Chris Froome is still wearing We're told by senior sources | :37:49. | :37:51. | |
at Manchester United that they've agreed a fee of around 75 million | :37:52. | :38:02. | |
pounds with Everton for striker A move that has been confirmed is | :38:03. | :38:05. | |
Manchester City Women's Toni Duggan, She is the first English player | :38:06. | :38:11. | |
to join the Spanish giants The British Irish Lions captain | :38:12. | :38:15. | |
Sam Warburton says he has unfinished business ahead of tomorrow's | :38:16. | :38:22. | |
third and deciding test Warburton missed the series decider | :38:23. | :38:24. | |
in Australia four years ago For the last four years in the back | :38:25. | :38:27. | |
of my mind I've had, you know, this tour, | :38:28. | :38:34. | |
I have set my sights on this tour, and I wanted to be in the test team | :38:35. | :38:38. | |
to play the last game. It didn't happen and | :38:39. | :38:43. | |
you just accept it. I was delighted when I heard my name | :38:44. | :38:45. | |
read out for the third test Yeah, this time tomorrow the buildup | :38:46. | :39:02. | |
will be fever pitch. Now, back at Wimbledon, I am looking for signs | :39:03. | :39:05. | |
from the universe as to who will win. It can come in all shapes and | :39:06. | :39:09. | |
sizes, even perhaps in your breakfast here. This was tweeted by | :39:10. | :39:16. | |
a Federer fan, I think we can say, he was served his toast with the | :39:17. | :39:19. | |
face of Federer appearing magically from the crusty bread. Do you think | :39:20. | :39:28. | |
it was made out of Marmite? Amazing! I will have to order some toast and | :39:29. | :39:34. | |
see who's face appears later on. Coverage on BBC Two at 11:30am and | :39:35. | :39:38. | |
Centre Court 5 Live featuring Heather Watson from 1pm. I like that | :39:39. | :39:46. | |
toast. Yes, well, it clearly wasn't by accident, was it? Oh, wasn't it? | :39:47. | :39:51. | |
Someone tells me not. We will be back with the weather little later | :39:52. | :39:53. | |
on. Around a fifth of those caught | :39:54. | :39:53. | |
up in traumatic events like the Grenfell Tower fire | :39:54. | :39:56. | |
and Manchester attack are expected by the NHS to seek professional | :39:57. | :39:59. | |
psychological help. NHS England has written to GPs | :40:00. | :40:08. | |
across the country with practical advice to help patients who may be | :40:09. | :40:11. | |
suffering ongoing mental health problems following a | :40:12. | :40:14. | |
harrowing experience. We're joined now by Dr Ahmed Kazmia, | :40:15. | :40:15. | |
a GP whose surgery is just 800 And you've also, Dr Ahmed Kazmia, | :40:16. | :40:23. | |
treated victims, residents from Grenfell Tower as well. Can I first | :40:24. | :40:27. | |
asked how they are doing, around ten or 11 people you have treated to a | :40:28. | :40:32. | |
connected? Yes, that's right, doing well, when you think about what | :40:33. | :40:40. | |
they're going through. They have had a recent councillor and most have | :40:41. | :40:47. | |
chosen not to see them again. They are busy with things like housing, | :40:48. | :40:52. | |
finances, locating relatives. That is taking precedent at the moment. | :40:53. | :40:58. | |
They are not usually able to come in to the surgery, so it has been home | :40:59. | :41:01. | |
visits or telephone work. Interesting that you say how busy | :41:02. | :41:05. | |
they have been, and obviously of course they have, there are | :41:06. | :41:08. | |
practical things to sort out. It coincides quite nicely with this | :41:09. | :41:12. | |
open letter that has been sent by NHS England to GPs talking about how | :41:13. | :41:15. | |
to deal with mental health because it is six weeks now since the | :41:16. | :41:19. | |
Grenfell Tower and it is at this time that we are being told that | :41:20. | :41:24. | |
certain symptoms are easier to spot perhaps in mental health distress? | :41:25. | :41:27. | |
Yes, that's quite right. We are quite pleased to see this released | :41:28. | :41:32. | |
because I think it formalises and draws a bit of media attention to | :41:33. | :41:35. | |
something that is already happening and already happens on the ground at | :41:36. | :41:41. | |
a local level with doctors, nurses, psychologist, and highlights an | :41:42. | :41:45. | |
important point, that almost everyone who experiences a traumatic | :41:46. | :41:50. | |
event, almost 100% of people, will have an acute stress reaction, so | :41:51. | :41:53. | |
they will have symptoms of distress, panic, thinking about it constantly, | :41:54. | :41:58. | |
and we see that in almost everyone. That is the mind's way to process | :41:59. | :42:03. | |
and reconcile what it was exposed to. After about six weeks we would | :42:04. | :42:09. | |
expect that in about 70% - 90% symptoms would reduce to an extent | :42:10. | :42:14. | |
they are able to live life normally, function and do daily jobs but in a | :42:15. | :42:19. | |
small proportion, 10% - 30%, which is the one fit statistic, sadly the | :42:20. | :42:25. | |
reaction maintains and it is referred to as post- dramatic -- | :42:26. | :42:33. | |
post-traumatic stress disorder. What would you do if you have a friend | :42:34. | :42:38. | |
who has suffered a,, and also I suppose it depends on age as well - | :42:39. | :42:43. | |
how can you recognise the problems someone is going through and how to | :42:44. | :42:47. | |
address that with them? I think there are two questions and one is | :42:48. | :42:51. | |
what can friends and relatives do in the short-term. I think there is a | :42:52. | :42:55. | |
lot of fear these days because we medicalise everything. I think | :42:56. | :42:59. | |
people are reluctant to talk to friends or relatives because they | :43:00. | :43:03. | |
are worried they are not trained professionals and might not say the | :43:04. | :43:06. | |
right thing. I would encourage them to feel free to do that and | :43:07. | :43:09. | |
encourage people affected to talk. There are things we know that if you | :43:10. | :43:14. | |
do that the you are less likely to develop PTSD. Try to go back to the | :43:15. | :43:18. | |
normal routine, simple things like eating healthily, speaking to family | :43:19. | :43:24. | |
and friends, making your needs known, even if family and friends | :43:25. | :43:27. | |
don't say anything, they are just here to listen while your float your | :43:28. | :43:31. | |
feeling, that is cathartic for people and something that is | :43:32. | :43:37. | |
accessible to almost everyone. That is the first part. With regard to | :43:38. | :43:41. | |
specialist care I would say anyone who has been berieved by a trauma, | :43:42. | :43:45. | |
or who has had children involved, I think they need to seek medical | :43:46. | :43:50. | |
assistance as well as the lifestyle advice that I have said -- bereaved. | :43:51. | :43:57. | |
If someone still has these symptoms after four to six weeks we would | :43:58. | :44:00. | |
probably refer them on to psychology. There is a very | :44:01. | :44:03. | |
streamlined service for that now established very quickly after | :44:04. | :44:08. | |
Grenfell Tower, so there is a number GPs and patients can call themselves | :44:09. | :44:12. | |
to access that. I would like to say one more thing about that. If you | :44:13. | :44:15. | |
read some of the literature about this report, it says six weeks is | :44:16. | :44:22. | |
the point at which we would start to consider psychology referral. I | :44:23. | :44:24. | |
don't think that is quite true. If like I mentioned someone has been | :44:25. | :44:29. | |
bereaved, a child was involved, they have pre-existing mental health | :44:30. | :44:32. | |
problems and we know they are high risk of being one of the people who | :44:33. | :44:36. | |
will develop PTSD, most doctors wouldn't wait six weeks to get | :44:37. | :44:39. | |
involved, we would probably be involved more early. The six-week | :44:40. | :44:42. | |
figure comes for people genuinely who are fit and well and don't have | :44:43. | :44:45. | |
major mental health problems. Those are the ones who if they come to us | :44:46. | :44:49. | |
and they say they are having difficulty sleeping and keep | :44:50. | :44:54. | |
remembering the event, they feel anxious all the time, that is when | :44:55. | :44:58. | |
we try to reassure them and say that we understand that is how you feel, | :44:59. | :45:02. | |
we understand you think it might go on for ever, and I can assure you | :45:03. | :45:06. | |
that for most it will subside with time. Dr Ahmed Kazmia, thank you | :45:07. | :45:09. | |
very much and I understand you have a stand-up show in aid of Grenfell | :45:10. | :45:13. | |
Tower victims and we wish you very well with that as well. | :45:14. | :45:17. | |
It's 07:45 and you're watching Breakfast from BBC News. | :45:18. | :45:20. | |
We were doing a serious interview earlier this morning, with Tony | :45:21. | :45:27. | |
Renton, the former Ambassador to Russia, talking about the | :45:28. | :45:29. | |
forthcoming meeting with President Trump and Vladimir Putin. Where is | :45:30. | :45:34. | |
this going? Well, the picture behind was Cambridge. It was photo bombed. | :45:35. | :45:39. | |
There was a cow in the background that photo bombed the interview with | :45:40. | :45:44. | |
Sir Tony. A rather it uses cow. And we were going to go back to the cow. | :45:45. | :45:56. | |
Is that man hunting? -- punting. Yes. Anyway, we wanted to revisit | :45:57. | :46:01. | |
the cow, but it has gone. Was it a nice cow? A good-looking cow? That | :46:02. | :46:06. | |
is the odd question of the day. You can have a handsome cow. Look at | :46:07. | :46:11. | |
that calm, lovely scenery. Look at that. Carol, how was it in London | :46:12. | :46:18. | |
compare to that? It is fabulous year at Wimbledon. We | :46:19. | :46:24. | |
have been photo bombed by the court attendance, pulling the covers off | :46:25. | :46:27. | |
in preparing the court. They are now taking a well-deserved break. Not | :46:28. | :46:31. | |
for long, they are very busy. If you have an allergy to pollen I want to | :46:32. | :46:35. | |
tell you today that the levels are high or very high across Northern | :46:36. | :46:39. | |
Ireland, lesbian and all of England and Wales. For Scotland, they are | :46:40. | :46:45. | |
mostly moderate. -- Northern Ireland, lothian. In Scotland, they | :46:46. | :46:53. | |
are low. Today will not be as hot as yesterday in London, but it is still | :46:54. | :46:57. | |
going to be hot. We are looking at highs of 28 or 29. The forecast for | :46:58. | :47:01. | |
Wimbledon itself is dry. Lots of sunshine this morning, but | :47:02. | :47:05. | |
increasingly the sunshine will build, meaning we are looking at | :47:06. | :47:08. | |
some bright and sunny skies of light winds. Something to bear in mind if | :47:09. | :47:13. | |
you are coming down. For most of us, a dry day. Some rain in the | :47:14. | :47:16. | |
forecast, mainly in the north. We begin the forecast at nine o'clock | :47:17. | :47:20. | |
in the morning across southern England, and while we have a lot of | :47:21. | :47:24. | |
dry weather around and it is the same for East Anglia and also the | :47:25. | :47:27. | |
Midlands, heading north into northern England there is a fair bit | :47:28. | :47:31. | |
of cloud and some sunny intervals. Scotland, some showery outbreaks of | :47:32. | :47:35. | |
rain turning heavy later. Cloud across Northern Ireland, and a damp | :47:36. | :47:39. | |
start to you, with diesel around. Wales, bright and sunny intervals | :47:40. | :47:43. | |
first thing. In south-west England there has been some fog, now tending | :47:44. | :47:48. | |
to lift. As we drift further east from Gloucestershire, through | :47:49. | :47:51. | |
Dorset, Hampshire, through the Home Counties generally, and the southern | :47:52. | :47:54. | |
counties of England, there is lots of dry weather. Where we have the | :47:55. | :48:00. | |
brakes in the cloud, literature will continue to climb quite quickly. -- | :48:01. | :48:08. | |
the temperature will. We will see some of these showers developing | :48:09. | :48:12. | |
across parts of Wales, heading in the direction of Lincolnshire, but | :48:13. | :48:16. | |
nothing like we had yesterday. The weather front continue southwards. | :48:17. | :48:20. | |
It will cloud over in the West and we could see some drizzle, but the | :48:21. | :48:23. | |
south-east they in dry, hot and humid. Fresh air elsewhere. Through | :48:24. | :48:27. | |
the evening and overnight, the weather front in Scotland continues | :48:28. | :48:32. | |
to move south, so we could see that feature producing cloud and showers. | :48:33. | :48:37. | |
Fresh behind it and Chilean parts of Scotland in the shelter of the | :48:38. | :48:40. | |
loans, for example, with figures in single figures. Still quite warm and | :48:41. | :48:47. | |
humid in the south-east. Tomorrow, for Scotland and northern England, | :48:48. | :48:51. | |
it will be a lot of sunshine around. Further south and west, there will | :48:52. | :48:56. | |
be it more cloud around and a fuchsia hours and we will also see | :48:57. | :49:01. | |
some coastal mist and fog coming up the Bristol Channel. Later in the | :49:02. | :49:08. | |
day on Saturday a new front comes in across the far north of Scotland and | :49:09. | :49:12. | |
on Sunday it starts to slip across the west of Scotland and also | :49:13. | :49:15. | |
Northern Ireland. England and Wales, a finance dry start for you, but | :49:16. | :49:19. | |
they will be showers developing through the day. Through the day | :49:20. | :49:24. | |
between shall meet. As the weather from sinks south it will join the | :49:25. | :49:28. | |
shower was already in the south. That leads to a more changeable | :49:29. | :49:29. | |
weather pattern on Monday. Carroll, thank you. -- Carol. | :49:30. | :49:48. | |
Unexpected item in bagging area! Sorry, Naga was caught eating. Are | :49:49. | :49:53. | |
you calling this a bagging area? I could see the trap I was falling | :49:54. | :49:58. | |
into. Sean, would you like to rescue Charlie? Shall we carry on? There is | :49:59. | :50:06. | |
a nice link, isn't there, from Carol and the unexpected items in the | :50:07. | :50:11. | |
bagging area. Yes, the many options that Charlie had and he chose that | :50:12. | :50:14. | |
one. This is all about Rafael Nadal. Well, not all about him. He had some | :50:15. | :50:17. | |
problems with this service. You may have seen that he needed a | :50:18. | :50:23. | |
bit of help from Nick Robinson when using this service checkouts at | :50:24. | :50:28. | |
Wimbledon over the last week or so. It can be a familiar sight. Rafael | :50:29. | :50:32. | |
Nadal said yesterday he was grateful for the help he got from Nick. When | :50:33. | :50:35. | |
you finish shopping there is always one somewhere, isn't there? An | :50:36. | :50:39. | |
anguished shopper needing assistance. Lots of us might think | :50:40. | :50:43. | |
they can be frustrating, but after the US, the UK has the biggest | :50:44. | :50:45. | |
market for this kind of technology. It's 15 years now since | :50:46. | :50:48. | |
we first got them. Recently Tesco have changed | :50:49. | :50:51. | |
the voice to make it less annoying, while Morrisons even brought | :50:52. | :50:54. | |
in 1,000 cashiers after customers Joining me now to discuss | :50:55. | :50:56. | |
this is Phil Dorrell, who's a retail analyst | :50:57. | :51:01. | |
at Retail Remedy and also worked in big stores like Asda and Safeway | :51:02. | :51:04. | |
when this technology was coming in. Yeah. Have they been a success? From | :51:05. | :51:13. | |
the retailers' perspective, absolutely. Retailers want to reduce | :51:14. | :51:18. | |
the amount of costs that they have in their labour force in stores. | :51:19. | :51:22. | |
This provides a fantastic opportunity, instead of putting six | :51:23. | :51:25. | |
cashier 's on, you have one person looking after six checkouts, which | :51:26. | :51:29. | |
is fantastic. Great for the retailer, getting us to work for | :51:30. | :51:35. | |
them. Indeed. As it worked out better for the customer, I know it | :51:36. | :51:40. | |
looks quicker, but is it? It is quicker if you know exactly what | :51:41. | :51:43. | |
you're doing, you are competent at doing it and you are experienced at | :51:44. | :51:47. | |
doing it. If you have less than 12 items and they are all scattered | :51:48. | :51:50. | |
all, absolutely it is the right thing to do. As long as those items | :51:51. | :51:54. | |
do not contain products that other people need to verify, like alcohol. | :51:55. | :51:58. | |
If you do it through that, you are used to doing it, scanning it, it is | :51:59. | :52:02. | |
absolutely the quickest way to do it. The problem is that we get that | :52:03. | :52:06. | |
dreaded "Unexpected item in bagging area", where a red light comes on | :52:07. | :52:09. | |
and somebody has to come help you and we think or feel that we have | :52:10. | :52:13. | |
been accused of something, and then a young lady comes over and | :52:14. | :52:16. | |
authorises it. That is the problem. The technology has not moved on | :52:17. | :52:20. | |
swiftly enough to match our needs. It has moved on a little bit. | :52:21. | :52:23. | |
Sometimes they are on scales, so there is no baggage area for there | :52:24. | :52:27. | |
to be an unexpected item. Is that the future that we are going to see? | :52:28. | :52:32. | |
I don't think it has moved on as much as we would have expected to | :52:33. | :52:38. | |
do. -- expected it. I think the future of checkouts will be | :52:39. | :52:44. | |
something more like Is on Go, where they are experimenting with a | :52:45. | :52:54. | |
completely checkoutless store. -- Amazon Go. It recognises what you | :52:55. | :52:58. | |
are picking up, you put it in your bag and you leave. I think that | :52:59. | :53:02. | |
could be the future, that could happen in the UK in the next five | :53:03. | :53:05. | |
years. Phil, thank you. So, that could be it. Facial recognition | :53:06. | :53:09. | |
could spot that you have walked in, you pick up what you want, you walk | :53:10. | :53:12. | |
out, job done. That will be very simple. Thank you, | :53:13. | :53:14. | |
Sean. If you've flown long haul | :53:15. | :53:14. | |
over the past 40 years, chances are you've | :53:15. | :53:21. | |
been on a Boeing 747, It revolutionised air | :53:22. | :53:23. | |
travel around the world, making it possible to fly | :53:24. | :53:26. | |
further and for less money. But could the era of big jets | :53:27. | :53:29. | |
be coming to an end? Our transport correspondent, | :53:30. | :53:32. | |
Richard Westcott, reports. NEWSREEL: Out of the biggest | :53:33. | :53:34. | |
hangar in the world came It's the giant aeroplane | :53:35. | :53:37. | |
that shrank the world - two and a half times bigger | :53:38. | :53:40. | |
than anything else at the time. NEWSREEL: Even as a toy, | :53:41. | :53:44. | |
the 747 is quite an armful. With its iconic hump, | :53:45. | :53:47. | |
Boeing's 747 brought cheap flying It nearly bankrupted the company, | :53:48. | :53:49. | |
but ended up saving it. This is the aeroplane that | :53:50. | :53:56. | |
gave wings to the world. Because of its size, | :53:57. | :53:59. | |
because of its range, It made it possible for the airlines | :54:00. | :54:02. | |
to fly economically anywhere But 50 years on, airlines prefer | :54:03. | :54:05. | |
smaller, more fuel-efficient planes, and Boeing says it may finally stop | :54:06. | :54:15. | |
making the jumbo jet. But after all that hard work | :54:16. | :54:18. | |
and all those miles, this is where 747s comes | :54:19. | :54:20. | |
for a quiet retirement. In less than a day, an entire jumbo | :54:21. | :54:23. | |
jet has been reduced to that pile They are just smashing up | :54:24. | :54:27. | |
the last piece of fuselage, and all that aluminium will be taken | :54:28. | :54:31. | |
off and turned into beer cans. Some of these things | :54:32. | :54:34. | |
are going back to the airline, but others have been bought | :54:35. | :54:37. | |
by private collectors, who will turn them into | :54:38. | :54:39. | |
quirky office furniture. I can't get the film | :54:40. | :54:41. | |
is working, though. They have slightly different | :54:42. | :54:49. | |
plans for this jumbo jet. A very rich person has bought | :54:50. | :55:04. | |
the top half of it and apparently they're going to turn it | :55:05. | :55:09. | |
into some kind of social And if we actually go | :55:10. | :55:11. | |
into the cockpit, you've got all the controls, and apparently | :55:12. | :55:19. | |
lots of enthusiasts from all over 1970, and the very first | :55:20. | :55:22. | |
747 lands in Britain. It made a big impression on one | :55:23. | :55:30. | |
ogling fan that day. There was a huge thing in the press | :55:31. | :55:35. | |
about this first aeroplane coming in across the Atlantic, Pan Am, | :55:36. | :55:38. | |
and so I had to go and see it. It was a big cuddly aeroplane, | :55:39. | :55:48. | |
it did its best to look after you. It goes for miles, it | :55:49. | :55:52. | |
never runs out of fuel, the systems on it, the 400 series, | :55:53. | :55:55. | |
which is the last one, they were modern systems - | :55:56. | :55:58. | |
a digital aeroplane, The jumbo is not the only giant | :55:59. | :56:00. | |
plane struggling for orders Archrivals Airbus make | :56:01. | :56:11. | |
the even bigger A380, but sales have been poor and they | :56:12. | :56:17. | |
have also slashed production. But the jumbo jet | :56:18. | :56:20. | |
isn't finished yet. That hump is there for a reason - | :56:21. | :56:23. | |
the nose comes up to carry freight. Its passenger days may be over, | :56:24. | :56:27. | |
but jumbo jets full of stuff will be filling the skies for | :56:28. | :56:31. | |
many years to come. fascinating to look back at the | :56:32. | :56:47. | |
history of I'm back with the latest | :56:48. | :00:07. | |
from the BBC London newsroom Hello this is Breakfast, | :00:08. | :00:09. | |
with Charlie Stayt Violent clashes as world | :00:10. | :00:13. | |
leaders gather for the G20 Protests continued into the night | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
-police used water cannon and tear gas to disperse | :00:17. | :00:21. | |
hundreds of protestors. President Trump and President Putin | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
will hold their first face to face talks today when they meet | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
at the summit. Mental health services in England | :00:29. | :00:45. | |
at risk of being over-run. This is one of me when I joined the | :00:46. | :00:52. | |
Army. We'll hear how life has | :00:53. | :01:04. | |
changed for those who serve France has said it's going to ban | :01:05. | :01:16. | |
petrol and diesel cars by 2040. The latest move towards getting more | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
electric cars on the roads. More on that shortly. | :01:21. | :01:21. | |
In sport, Johanna Konta is now favourite for | :01:22. | :01:23. | |
the Wimbledon women's title - she plays on Court One later - | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
as four British players are in action in round three | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
When we were bairns. I wasn't born, actually! It should stay dry at | :01:30. | :01:47. | |
Wimbledon today. An increasing amount of cloud, though. Still | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
sunny, eyes of 28, 20 nine. For the UK as a whole, rain in Scotland. A | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
few showers across northern England later, but nothing like yesterday. A | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
lot of dry weather. Still hot and humid in the south-east. We'll be | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
back with more later in the programme. | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
The highly anticipated first face-to-face talks | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
between President Trump and President Putin will take | :02:11. | :02:11. | |
Ahead of the meeting at the G20 summit, there were violent clashes. | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
Police used water cannon and pepper spray on masked protesters | :02:17. | :02:18. | |
Our Diplomatic Correspondent, James Robbins, reports from Hamburg. | :02:19. | :02:27. | |
A global summit automatically triggers protest from those | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
who accuse the world's most powerful leaders of serving narrow interests. | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
"Welcome to hell," is one slogan to greet the presidents and prime | :02:36. | :02:38. | |
ministers who are divided over a huge range of issues. | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
But most eyes are focused on the controversial figure | :02:45. | :02:46. | |
This summit host, Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel, | :02:47. | :02:53. | |
facing elections, has showed her anger in the past over | :02:54. | :02:59. | |
the President's denunciation of the Paris Climate Change Agreement. | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
But she's now hoping to combine toughness with a search | :03:03. | :03:04. | |
The real prize fight here will be Mr Trump's first presidential bout | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
On his way here, President Trump acknowledged the possibility Russia | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
interfered in the American elections, at the same time | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
he accused Russia of deliberate destabilisation | :03:20. | :03:20. | |
These are charges denied by Vladimir Putin and the Kremlin. | :03:21. | :03:29. | |
The two presidents may find some common ground but this very personal | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
contest symbolises deep divisions among the wider leadership | :03:34. | :03:35. | |
of the most powerful economies in the world. | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
Disputes over trade and how to confront North Korea are among | :03:41. | :03:42. | |
China, with Russia, wants to keep the focus on dialogue. | :03:43. | :03:50. | |
The Prime Minister, Theresa May, has come to Hamburg pledging | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
to continue her campaign to outlaw the financing of violent extremism. | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
She will present new ideas for international co-oporation | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
to try to identify and close down even small-scale channelling | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
All summits throw division into sharp relief but still this | :04:06. | :04:11. | |
Well those demonstrations have continued in to this morning. | :04:12. | :04:20. | |
Police and protesters have clashed again. | :04:21. | :04:22. | |
Later on this morning it's expected children and teenagers | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
And we'll get the latest from our Diplomatic Correspondent who's | :04:25. | :04:31. | |
Mental health services in England are being overwhelmed | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
by a combination of rising demand and staff shortages - according | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
There are also concerns that extra government money, | :04:38. | :04:44. | |
designed to improve access for patients needing help, | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
is failing to reach front line services. | :04:48. | :04:49. | |
Here's our health correspondent, Dominic Hughes. | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
Two years ago Alice Victor was struggling with an eating | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
disorder but her GP told her it would take at least a year before | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
In the end Alice went private but, thinking back, she remembers that | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
It takes so much to come out and say I need help and I need professional | :05:06. | :05:13. | |
help, and then to not get it is horrible. | :05:14. | :05:15. | |
And having to wait longer and longer, you get stuck | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
in the same unhealthy thought patterns and your mental | :05:20. | :05:21. | |
A survey of bosses at mental health trusts across England paints | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
a picture of services under pressure. | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
70% expect demand to increase this year. | :05:30. | :05:32. | |
Two out of three trusts say they don't have enough staff | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
to cope, particularly mental health nurses and psychiatrists. | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
And 80% say extra government money intended for mental health is not | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
We have seen many, many more campaigns up and down the country | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
really talking about breaking down the stigma of presenting for mental | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
health treatment, but that means that demand is going | :05:55. | :05:56. | |
And I think we are at risk of mental health trusts being overwhelmed | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
The Department of Health in England said it expected NHS bosses to make | :06:01. | :06:07. | |
sure an extra billion pounds each year reached frontline mental health | :06:08. | :06:10. | |
Meanwhile, a BBC Radio 5 Live investigation has found a 16% rise | :06:11. | :06:18. | |
in ambulance callouts to people suffering from suspected mental | :06:19. | :06:20. | |
health problems, adding to the signs the pressure is building | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
The senior judge who will lead the Grenfell Tower Public Inquiry | :06:24. | :06:37. | |
has faced angry questions from survivors of the fire and local | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
residents at a public meeting last night. | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
Sir Martin Moore-Bick has been accused of ignoring calls | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
for him to consider the social issues which affect public housing. | :06:47. | :06:50. | |
One resident accused him of doing a hatchet job on the inquiry - | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
Citizens Advice is calling on ministers to stop the roll out | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
of the new welfare benefit, Universal Credit. | :06:58. | :06:59. | |
The charity says problems with the benefit | :07:00. | :07:01. | |
are forcing people into debt, and say tens of thousands of people | :07:02. | :07:03. | |
will face financial hardship unless improvements are made. | :07:04. | :07:05. | |

A new gallery will open in David Hockney's hometown | :07:17. | :07:18. | |
of Bradford today - to coincide with his 80th | :07:19. | :07:20. | |
The David Hockney Gallery, at Cartwright Hall, houses | :07:21. | :07:23. | |
the largest public collection of his early artworks | :07:24. | :07:25. | |
The display also includes family photos and previously unseen footage | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
David Dimbleby is used to dealing with difficult situations | :07:32. | :07:42. | |
as the host of Question Time, but he was left a little red-faced | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
last night when his alarm on his mobile interrupted | :07:46. | :07:47. | |
the programme to tell him it was 'time for bed'. | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
The audience started laughing as Dimbleby looked at his phone | :07:51. | :07:52. | |
If we ever do Brexit they will know what to argue about at their dinner | :07:53. | :08:07. | |
parties, will they? Brexit, whether you voted leave all remain was not a | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
win or lose situation. You put a fork in the road and we opted for | :08:13. | :08:18. | |
one fork. Now we're in this situation, we're all going down that | :08:19. | :08:30. | |
forked... It's bedtime! This is my stopwatch saying it's bedtime. Carry | :08:31. | :08:37. | |
on. It sometimes happens. It does. The rule is, switch the phone off. | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
Don't even have it in the studio. Never mind. Eight minutes past | :08:42. | :08:49. | |
eight. A day of great sport to head for four Brits taking to the court | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
today. The third round and for the first time in 20 years we four | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
Brits. Mike is at Wimbledon for us this morning. It's going to be a | :08:59. | :09:00. | |
cracking day for British interests in Wimbledon. Incredible, first-time | :09:01. | :09:07. | |
for 20 years as you say. It could get even better if three of the four | :09:08. | :09:10. | |
make it through, that hasn't happened, that three Brits have made | :09:11. | :09:16. | |
it to the last 16, since 1979. Someone who knows all about history, | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
Annabel Croft, you know about setting records because when you | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
were 15 you were the youngest Brit in 95 years to play at Wimbledon. A | :09:25. | :09:30. | |
long time ago, I can tell you. But strictly on Centre Court today, what | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
is weird on this first Friday, all the focus and talk isn't about Andy | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
Murray, like it has been in recent years. That is very true, normally | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
so focused on him, from quite early on in the tournament, because he's | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
the last man standing. This year we've had a lot of success with the | :09:48. | :09:50. | |
Brits. They've been doing well, haven't they, through the course of | :09:51. | :09:58. | |
the year. Aljaz Bedene has had a great year. Heather Watson has | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
ignited on the grass court. Johanna Konta, what a wonderful year she's | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
had, she's won a couple of big tour titles and started to get tennis | :10:07. | :10:12. | |
motoring towards Wimbledon. That injury talk of a week ago when we | :10:13. | :10:18. | |
doubted if Murray and Konta would get past the first round because of | :10:19. | :10:23. | |
injury, that is gone and Konta is favourite. It's extraordinary. My | :10:24. | :10:28. | |
pick was Pliskova, she went out to another tricky grass court | :10:29. | :10:33. | |
specialist. Konta hard a tricky opening couple of matches to two | :10:34. | :10:37. | |
players she'd lost it in the last month. The fact she's got a really | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
difficult match, and you have to remember to win these championships | :10:41. | :10:44. | |
you have to win seven matches over two weeks, there is always going to | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
be a rocky road. I feel that one is out of the way. She got through the | :10:48. | :10:54. | |
match with Vekic and I feel things will open up for her. | :10:55. | :10:58. | |
I haven't heard much about her opponent today. An unknown quantity. | :10:59. | :11:06. | |
She's a young talented player coming through. She has a lot of power on | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
the court, a lot of skills. She's the daughter of a tour player I was | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
on tour with so it's nice to see her doing so well. I don't think she's | :11:15. | :11:17. | |
going to have enough experience and I think Johanna Konta, the tennis | :11:18. | :11:22. | |
she brings onto the court, with the aggression, great service, great | :11:23. | :11:25. | |
returns and great athletic ability will be too much. It's wonderful for | :11:26. | :11:29. | |
Heather Watson, who's been in the of Johanna Konta to have centre Court | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
billing against a former world number one. Victoria Azarenka. The | :11:34. | :11:37. | |
stage is set for Heather Watson to make her mark. It really is, she | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
also wants to set aside what happened when she played Serena | :11:43. | :11:45. | |
Williams here, she came within two point of a win and it took a quite a | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
long time to get over that match. Heather Watson makes a big stage, | :11:51. | :11:54. | |
she says it's her favourite court in the world. She is former world | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
number one, new mum, hasn't played a lot of tennis. They've met each | :12:00. | :12:05. | |
other four times. Azarenka... Heather hasn't got past four games | :12:06. | :12:10. | |
in a set against her. The other matches have been significantly | :12:11. | :12:13. | |
easy. Today might be different with the form Heather is playing. Aljaz | :12:14. | :12:19. | |
Bedene against Gilles Muller. Any chance he can get past? E is the | :12:20. | :12:25. | |
underdog. He is the underdog, he's had two quite long matches, but he's | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
played well to get through. He's had a run of wins, a lot more confident | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
in his game in 2017. Gilles Muller is a little bit of a nightmare for | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
everyone, he's a bit like Greg Rusedski was, that lefty serve, huge | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
serve on a grass court that swings out wide. He's had a huge amount of | :12:43. | :12:47. | |
success on the grass courts. It had his first couple of titles on tour. | :12:48. | :12:52. | |
So he's extremely confident and did well at Queens. He'll be a tough | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
one. Weirdly the most difficult match is against Andy Murray. Fabio | :12:57. | :13:03. | |
Fognini, head-to-head they've won three each, all on clay. For Panini | :13:04. | :13:09. | |
beat him earlier this year. -- Fabio Fognini beat him earlier this year. | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
I call him the Johnny Depp of tennis and he's like a swashbuckling pirate | :13:14. | :13:17. | |
and he needs a grander stage. He's one of these players that all the | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
other top players love to practice with because they are in awe of the | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
talent and skills he possesses. He has amazing shotmaking capabilities, | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
this firepower that can bring a crowd to their feet with | :13:31. | :13:34. | |
breathtaking or shotmaking. Interspersed with beautiful, soft | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
hands and silky skills with drop shots. We'll see a lot of drop | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
shots. Fascinating it is the first time on grass, I'm not sure how his | :13:43. | :13:46. | |
skills will transfer onto the grass, it'll be interesting. I think there | :13:47. | :13:49. | |
is a lot of respect for Andy Murray on the other end of the court. | :13:50. | :13:53. | |
They've been friends are known each other since they were 12. I'm | :13:54. | :13:57. | |
commentating on the Murray match and I'm really looking forward to it. | :13:58. | :14:01. | |
It's much harder in here than it has been on the outside courts. Carol is | :14:02. | :14:06. | |
here. It's not going to be as bad today. Not as hot as yesterday, | :14:07. | :14:14. | |
still hot and humid, maximum temperatures 28 or 29 Celsius. You | :14:15. | :14:17. | |
can see the roof nicely behind us on Centre Court, it takes about ten | :14:18. | :14:22. | |
minutes to close. It weighs 3000 tonnes. The sun is beating down, the | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
temperature is 20 Celsius at the moment and the forecast for | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
Wimbledon today is a dry one. Increasing amount of cloud | :14:32. | :14:33. | |
developing through the day. Not going to be a cloudy day, it'll be | :14:34. | :14:38. | |
bright or sunny. Those temperatures getting up to a sticky 29. For many | :14:39. | :14:43. | |
of us today it would be dry, sunny intervals. Some rain across the | :14:44. | :14:46. | |
north of the country. Especially across Scotland. We start the | :14:47. | :14:52. | |
forecast in the South. A lot of sunshine first thing across the | :14:53. | :14:54. | |
south-east. A little bit of cloud bubbling up, not spoiling it at all, | :14:55. | :14:59. | |
temperatures rising rapidly. The same across East Anglia come to the | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
Midlands, and heading into northern England. For Scotland we have some | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
showery outbreaks of rain this morning, it'll be pushing south east | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
through the course of the day. For Northern Ireland quite a cloudy | :15:11. | :15:13. | |
start for you, and a damp one. Some drizzle around. It will brighten up | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
later on. For Wales, similar story, temperatures rising quickly in the | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
sunshine. A wee bit more cloud around the coast, as we have across | :15:23. | :15:27. | |
parts of Devon and Cornwall. A lot of that will break. Again, we're | :15:28. | :15:30. | |
looking at sunny spells. They continue from Gloucestershire | :15:31. | :15:34. | |
through Dorset, Hampshire, in and across the South Midlands, over | :15:35. | :15:37. | |
towards the Home Counties. Temperatures containing to rise up | :15:38. | :15:44. | |
to about 22 Celsius. Through the day the rain in Scotland thinks | :15:45. | :15:47. | |
southwards. It'll be heavy in eastern Scotland, north of | :15:48. | :15:50. | |
Edinburgh. At the same time it'll brighten up in Northern Ireland. As | :15:51. | :15:55. | |
things consult it'll cloud over western parts of England and Wales a | :15:56. | :15:56. | |
little drizzle. -- as things it's fresher outside the south-east. | :15:57. | :16:07. | |
The weather front continues to sink into England and Wales as a weak | :16:08. | :16:11. | |
feature producing a band of cloud and the odd shower. It'll be chilly | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
in the shelter in Scotland. Ahead it'll be a humid night in the | :16:16. | :16:24. | |
south-east. Tomorrow for Scotland and Northern Ireland, quite a | :16:25. | :16:27. | |
different start of the day. The same for Northern England. There will be | :16:28. | :16:31. | |
more sunshine around. We'll have the weak weather front producing a line | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
of cloud. And we'll see some sea fog lap onshore across the Bristol | :16:36. | :16:42. | |
Channel, too. We have more cloud across western areas but the | :16:43. | :16:45. | |
south-east again should stay dry. Temperatures down a notch on today | :16:46. | :16:48. | |
but still fairly pleasant if you are out and about. Fresher for the rest | :16:49. | :16:53. | |
of the UK. On Saturday a weather front comes in across the far north | :16:54. | :16:56. | |
of Scotland, sinking south across Scotland and Northern Ireland during | :16:57. | :16:59. | |
the course of Sunday. Ahead of it for England and Wales we are looking | :17:00. | :17:04. | |
at some sunshine. We'll see showers sparked off as temperatures rise. | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
Some of those could be heavy and thundery. Eventually rain will come | :17:09. | :17:13. | |
south. I have a quick question for you, we've been talking about Centre | :17:14. | :17:18. | |
court, how many tennis balls do you think, with the roof closed, it | :17:19. | :17:20. | |
would take to fill centre court? The I can't think of a number that | :17:21. | :17:32. | |
big, 2 million, 4 million? Not even close. 290 million. I can't even | :17:33. | :17:41. | |
imagine it. How do you know that, Carol? You did it all in your head, | :17:42. | :17:53. | |
you are very clever! I wish that I could say that! Thank you very much. | :17:54. | :17:57. | |
It's 8:17 and you're watching Breakfast from BBC News. | :17:58. | :17:59. | |
Around 80 police officers have been hurt in clashes with protesters | :18:00. | :18:04. | |
NHS trusts are warning that mental health services in England risk | :18:05. | :18:11. | |
being over-run by rising demand and staff shortages. | :18:12. | :18:19. | |
Let's go back to our main story and the clashes between police | :18:20. | :18:22. | |
and protesters in Hamburg which started last night and have | :18:23. | :18:25. | |
These are the latest pictures from the demonstrations this morning. | :18:26. | :18:30. | |
Cars have been burnt out ahead of the G20 summit | :18:31. | :18:38. | |
where later today President Putin and President Trump will meet | :18:39. | :18:40. | |
That meeting is what many people will be focusing on although there | :18:41. | :18:49. | |
are other issues to discuss, North Korea, to have arisen with a fair | :18:50. | :18:52. | |
amount of friction between various leaders attending. | :18:53. | :18:54. | |
Our Diplomatic Correspondent James Robbins | :18:55. | :18:55. | |
James, there is a lot to cover, we have shown those pictures but I | :18:56. | :19:05. | |
suppose it is about the handshakes we are about to see and the messages | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
that we are about to hear. I think that's right. This is an unusually | :19:11. | :19:18. | |
fractious both outside with those protests and inside the summit | :19:19. | :19:20. | |
centre where there is a real sense among many of the leaders, they just | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
do not know which way the world is headed, and to that extent, the | :19:26. | :19:31. | |
crunch first meeting between the two Presidents, the president of Russia | :19:32. | :19:34. | |
and the president of the United States, crystallises that | :19:35. | :19:38. | |
uncertainty. These are two leaders who will undoubtedly size each other | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
up physically as well as politically. It has been called | :19:43. | :19:45. | |
something of a prize fight and that is not trivialising it. This is a | :19:46. | :19:51. | |
big clash between President Trump Uzis and of as something of a | :19:52. | :19:55. | |
wrestler and wants to win and President Putin, who is much | :19:56. | :20:00. | |
shorter, perhaps seven inches shorter, Trump will tower over him | :20:01. | :20:04. | |
that he thinks he can rely on his judo training and his long political | :20:05. | :20:08. | |
experience... James, I just want to explain what our viewers can see. | :20:09. | :20:14. | |
You are talking about the meeting between the president is today. We | :20:15. | :20:17. | |
are showing pictures of the protesters targeted by police with | :20:18. | :20:22. | |
water cannons on the streets of Hamburg. This is happening on the | :20:23. | :20:26. | |
streets. It's not an uncommon thing to see protesters outside these G8 | :20:27. | :20:34. | |
20 all G7 summits, is it. Frankly, it has become traditional for an | :20:35. | :20:39. | |
entire coalition of protesters, some determined anarchists who I think | :20:40. | :20:44. | |
have been behind the violence, who came this morning frankly looking | :20:45. | :20:48. | |
for trouble, others in the crowd who are frankly appalled by that and | :20:49. | :20:52. | |
feel they have real political grievances, some of them are Green | :20:53. | :20:58. | |
voters in a country, Germany, that sees itself as particularly green. | :20:59. | :21:02. | |
Some are suspicious of what they think are private stitch ups behind | :21:03. | :21:07. | |
closed doors between an representative leaders of the | :21:08. | :21:12. | |
largest economies. An uneasy coalition, no question that Angela | :21:13. | :21:14. | |
Merkel took a real risk deciding to bring this summit to the major city | :21:15. | :21:19. | |
of Hamburg. I think she knew that some of those scenes would be played | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
out so she hoped and believed that they could be contained and she | :21:24. | :21:27. | |
helps the violence will be contained because this is an election year for | :21:28. | :21:32. | |
her. She wanted to project the image of a strong leader prepared to | :21:33. | :21:36. | |
champion the values of democracy including the freedom to protest. | :21:37. | :21:40. | |
Yet it is a high-risk strategy if it goes wrong. Apologies for | :21:41. | :21:44. | |
interrupting you, thank you for explaining that. Of course many | :21:45. | :21:48. | |
meetings and as James said a fractious environment. Just to | :21:49. | :21:52. | |
update you with what you are seeing, protesters sitting down facing off | :21:53. | :21:55. | |
against police, they have been targeted with water cannon as well. | :21:56. | :22:01. | |
James explaining, protesters at these summits are not uncommon, | :22:02. | :22:05. | |
Angela Merkel also concerned about making sure she is portraying a | :22:06. | :22:09. | |
strong image especially when it comes to security with all these | :22:10. | :22:12. | |
international leaders in Hamburg. We will keep you up-to-date with any | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
developments in Hamburg as it happens. Now time for the business | :22:17. | :22:18. | |
news. Good morning, France has | :22:19. | :22:24. | |
announced plans to ban petrol and diesel cars from 2040 as part | :22:25. | :22:26. | |
of a shift towards electric cars. It's been a big week | :22:27. | :22:33. | |
for the industry, with Tesla launching a mass-market electric car | :22:34. | :22:38. | |
for around ?30,000 and Volvo saying all its new cars will be electric | :22:39. | :22:41. | |
or hybrid from 2019. It will be interesting to see | :22:42. | :22:46. | |
if British rules for petrol The food delivery firm Deliveroo | :22:47. | :22:49. | |
has said it will pay sickness and injury benefits | :22:50. | :22:56. | |
to its 15,000 riders in the UK, The company says it can't | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
do that at the moment, because it has to classify | :23:00. | :23:08. | |
its couriers as self-employed. A big report on what's called | :23:09. | :23:11. | |
the gig economy is due within the coming weeks, | :23:12. | :23:14. | |
which could see major changes to the way the likes of Deliveroo | :23:15. | :23:17. | |
and Uber treat those that And you could have a bit | :23:18. | :23:20. | |
of bother with your The boss of one of the world's | :23:21. | :23:27. | |
largest suppliers of dairy has said there is set to be a shortage | :23:28. | :23:32. | |
of butter by the end of the year - as more of us move away | :23:33. | :23:36. | |
from other spreads. The National Farmers Union say talk | :23:37. | :23:38. | |
of a shortage is scaremongering - but we've already seen prices go up | :23:39. | :23:41. | |
a lot in the last year. We will be keeping a close eye on | :23:42. | :23:52. | |
that in the coming months. Thank you. You never know what the talking | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
points are at Wimbledon every year. This year flying ants have become at | :23:58. | :24:02. | |
talking point. They gate-crashed the tournament and was followed by | :24:03. | :24:05. | |
players as they stormed Centre Court. It wasn't only in as W 19 | :24:06. | :24:10. | |
where we saw them. They have been seen all around the country, | :24:11. | :24:13. | |
including Cambridge, Widnes and Worcester. A lot of people suddenly | :24:14. | :24:20. | |
became instant experts on flying ants but we've got Professor Adam | :24:21. | :24:24. | |
Hart, who studies insects more generally. | :24:25. | :24:34. | |
Flying and day happens on different periods in different places. At | :24:35. | :24:42. | |
different times and in different places flying ants will come out, it | :24:43. | :24:46. | |
is tempting to say there is one day because that's not happening in your | :24:47. | :24:54. | |
garden. It did happen on a specific day in Wimbledon, but mostly it was | :24:55. | :24:59. | |
one day. Other specific conditions? Yes, it is unusually early, normally | :25:00. | :25:03. | |
it's the third week in July. We had that lovely period of weather, they | :25:04. | :25:07. | |
like and warm, they like no wind, they don't like any rain and when | :25:08. | :25:10. | |
all those things come together they go. It's a bit indelicate to say so | :25:11. | :25:16. | |
at this time of the morning but it's all about reproduction! Normally do | :25:17. | :25:20. | |
once you see on the pavement workers, concerned with making the | :25:21. | :25:23. | |
colony big, not concerned with breeding. These are the little ones. | :25:24. | :25:28. | |
Flying ants seem much bigger. They are much bigger and they have wings. | :25:29. | :25:34. | |
The males and females with wings mate and then the females will take | :25:35. | :25:37. | |
another hole and they will try to start another colony. Most will be | :25:38. | :25:40. | |
eaten by seagulls but some are successful and away they go. Did I | :25:41. | :25:46. | |
read that the female statue of their own wings. Yes, you can't make the | :25:47. | :25:51. | |
whole when you've got wings, they just have wings so they can get into | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
the sky to mate with the males and then they come down. And caused some | :25:56. | :25:59. | |
problems at Wimbledon but there's nothing that you can do about it. | :26:00. | :26:04. | |
It's a great spectacle, we don't get herds of wildebeest in this country | :26:05. | :26:09. | |
but we do get flying ants, it is a great spectacle. We don't see them | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
most of the time but they are in the soil, every eating the soil, top | :26:15. | :26:19. | |
predators, very important and for a few days of the year they cause us | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
bother, for most of the time we don't notice them. Is it a myth that | :26:24. | :26:28. | |
they only come out for one day? It is a myth. There is no flying ant | :26:29. | :26:33. | |
day. You will see them in the coming weeks. It will be when it is one | :26:34. | :26:38. | |
because these are the optimum conditions and this one together. | :26:39. | :26:42. | |
They do but it doesn't mean that they can't come at the next day as | :26:43. | :26:47. | |
well, we saw it at Wimbledon. Not quite as synchronous as we think but | :26:48. | :26:53. | |
pretty impressive. And they have no interest in humans. Man at all. We | :26:54. | :26:59. | |
are just an inconvenience for them, they don't like our windscreen | :27:00. | :27:03. | |
wipers, but we are just a triviality of them, they just want to mate | :27:04. | :30:30. | |
Hello, this is Breakfast, with Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty. | :30:31. | :30:37. | |
There were violent clashes last night in Hamburg | :30:38. | :30:39. | |
Cars were set on fire and last night, water cannon and pepper spray | :30:40. | :30:57. | |
were used by police on massed protesters who were hurling bottles. | :30:58. | :31:02. | |
These are the pictures from this morning, where you are seeing | :31:03. | :31:05. | |
protesters walking along the road in Hamburg. Recently, we saw pictures a | :31:06. | :31:09. | |
few minutes ago of police again using water cannon on protesters who | :31:10. | :31:11. | |
were sitting on the streets. These are nice pictures and you can | :31:12. | :31:21. | |
see water cannon being used. These are the protesters some distance | :31:22. | :31:25. | |
away from the formalities of the G20 itself. Those talks are due to get | :31:26. | :31:30. | |
under way in the next hour. Some of the leaders have already arrived. We | :31:31. | :31:36. | |
have seen President Macron, who has arrived on the red carpet. The | :31:37. | :31:44. | |
contrast, of course, between the formality and the arrivals of the | :31:45. | :31:48. | |
world leaders at the G20 summit very much in contrast to the scenes of | :31:49. | :31:52. | |
the protesters who are some distance away. It is worth pointing out that | :31:53. | :31:57. | |
there is much interest in the one scheduled meeting this morning | :31:58. | :32:01. | |
between President Trump and President Putin. That is due to take | :32:02. | :32:08. | |
place later this morning. As you can see, the police are using water | :32:09. | :32:11. | |
cannon and have also used pepper spray over night and again this | :32:12. | :32:15. | |
morning on the protesters as they gather in Hamburg ahead of the G20 | :32:16. | :32:19. | |
talks. That meeting between President Trump and President Putin | :32:20. | :32:24. | |
is going to be watched carefully. We spoke to the former UK ambassador to | :32:25. | :32:28. | |
Russia, Sir Tony Brenton, and he told us how he thinks the City | :32:29. | :32:31. | |
leaders will be approaching the meeting. | :32:32. | :32:35. | |
I would expect Putin to want to be cool, correct and look for a way of | :32:36. | :32:42. | |
establishing common ground with Trump, whereas Trump is hamstrung by | :32:43. | :32:47. | |
all of these investigations in Washington and cannot afford to | :32:48. | :32:50. | |
seemed to be to Pali with Britain at this stage. Going back to the images | :32:51. | :33:01. | |
of protesters, this morning we have largely seen peaceful protests. The | :33:02. | :33:04. | |
violent scenes were overnight. But from what we are seeing here, it | :33:05. | :33:10. | |
looks like the police are moving in on this group who are blocking the | :33:11. | :33:12. | |
road. We will watch those images this morning of the protesters at | :33:13. | :33:20. | |
the G20. Some of the police are trying to forcibly remove what has | :33:21. | :33:23. | |
clearly in this case been a peaceful protest. Other news down. | :33:24. | :33:32. | |
The senior judge who will lead the Grenfell Tower public inquiry | :33:33. | :33:35. | |
has faced angry questions from survivors of the fire and local | :33:36. | :33:37. | |
residents at a public meeting last night. | :33:38. | :33:39. | |
Sir Martin Moore-Bick has been accused of ignoring calls for him | :33:40. | :33:42. | |
to consider the social issues which affect public housing. | :33:43. | :33:44. | |
One resident accused him of doing a hatchet job on the inquiry - | :33:45. | :33:47. | |
The fifth of those caught up in events like the Grenfell Tower fire | :33:48. | :34:03. | |
are expected to seek help with mental health. Earlier, we spoke to | :34:04. | :34:10. | |
Dr Ahmed, a GP who has been treating some of the victims. He told us how | :34:11. | :34:15. | |
they are coping. They are actually doing well, all things considered. | :34:16. | :34:21. | |
Some had early involvement from psychologists and professional | :34:22. | :34:23. | |
bereavement counsellors, and they found that helpful. All of them have | :34:24. | :34:27. | |
seen a psychologist in some form, and most of them have chosen not to | :34:28. | :34:32. | |
see them again. They are busy with practical things like housing and | :34:33. | :34:36. | |
finances, locating relatives etc. So that takes precedence at the moment. | :34:37. | :34:40. | |
They are not usually able to come into the surgery, so most of the | :34:41. | :34:43. | |
health care I have been offering them has been home visits or | :34:44. | :34:44. | |
telephone work. A new gallery will open | :34:45. | :34:46. | |
in David Hockney's hometown of Bradford today to | :34:47. | :34:48. | |
coincide with his 80th The David Hockney Gallery | :34:49. | :34:50. | |
at Cartwright Hall houses the largest public collection | :34:51. | :34:53. | |
of his early artworks The display also includes family | :34:54. | :34:55. | |
photos and previously unseen footage And one lighter story. There was an | :34:56. | :35:14. | |
awkward interruption for the Question Time host. | :35:15. | :35:15. | |
After Brexit, they won't know what to argue about at | :35:16. | :35:17. | |
The fact is that Brexit, whether you voted Leave | :35:18. | :35:21. | |
or Remain, was not a win or lose situation. | :35:22. | :35:23. | |
This is my stopwatch saying it's bedtime! | :35:24. | :35:41. | |
Coming up on Breakfast this morning... | :35:42. | :35:54. | |
We'll meet Martine Wright who lost both legs in | :35:55. | :35:56. | |
She'll tell us about her rehabilitation and representing | :35:57. | :35:59. | |
It's 100 years ago today since women were allowed to enlist | :36:00. | :36:07. | |
We'll hear from a World War Two veteran and a new recruit to find | :36:08. | :36:14. | |
And after nine, we'll be talking about the gripping | :36:15. | :36:20. | |
new BBC police drama, In the Dark with lead | :36:21. | :36:22. | |
But first, let's get the sport with Mike. | :36:23. | :36:33. | |
What a day for British tennis. We have to enjoy this moment, don't we? | :36:34. | :36:43. | |
I can't remember a day like this. 20 years ago was the last time we had | :36:44. | :36:47. | |
four Brits involved at this stage, trying to reach the last 16 and the | :36:48. | :36:51. | |
second week. If just three of those make it through, it will be the | :36:52. | :36:56. | |
first time that has happened since 1979. It is really hotting up here. | :36:57. | :37:00. | |
There is no air. You notice it coming into Centre Court. But you | :37:01. | :37:03. | |
will not worry about that if you have a ticket for Centre Court | :37:04. | :37:08. | |
today, because what a line-up you have. Victoria Azarenka against | :37:09. | :37:10. | |
Heather Watson at one o'clock. Then Rafa Nadal and Andy Murray against | :37:11. | :37:17. | |
his old mate, Fabio Fognini, described by Annabel Croft as the | :37:18. | :37:20. | |
swashbuckling Johnny Depp of Wimbledon. But enough about the | :37:21. | :37:23. | |
men's, because the main talking point is on the women's tour. I | :37:24. | :37:27. | |
mentioned Heather Watson, but Johanna Konta is now favourite to | :37:28. | :37:30. | |
win the women's title here. What a contrast to a week ago, when we were | :37:31. | :37:34. | |
all worried about her injury. But the British number one plays the | :37:35. | :37:40. | |
Greek. Konta has moved into pole position after the Eastbourne | :37:41. | :37:43. | |
champion Karolina Pliskova was surprisingly knocked out. Obviously, | :37:44. | :37:48. | |
we can't write off the number one seed Angelique Kerber yet. Last | :37:49. | :37:55. | |
year, she beat Kirsten Flipkens in two hard-fought sets yesterday. | :37:56. | :37:58. | |
There were distressing scenes yesterday on court number 17 as the | :37:59. | :38:02. | |
American suffered a really nasty injury. She was crying out, please, | :38:03. | :38:07. | |
help me. She was screaming and crying on court during her match. | :38:08. | :38:14. | |
Kyle Edmond did his best to make it five Britons in round three, | :38:15. | :38:17. | |
He said he "lacked a bit of maturity" in his first experience | :38:18. | :38:21. | |
of Centre Court, after he lost in straight sets to Gael Monfils. | :38:22. | :38:24. | |
The seven-time champion Roger Federer is still looking very good. | :38:25. | :38:26. | |
He had a bit of a rocky start against Dusan Lajovic but | :38:27. | :38:29. | |
And another former champion, Novak Djokovic, | :38:30. | :38:33. | |
only needed an hour and a half to beat Adam Pavlasek. | :38:34. | :38:37. | |
Djokovic said afterwards he was puzzled by John McEnroe's | :38:38. | :38:39. | |
comments that he was the "Tiger Woods of tennis". | :38:40. | :38:45. | |
Away from Wimbledon, there was a remarkable first day | :38:46. | :38:48. | |
in the job for the new England cricket captain Joe Root. | :38:49. | :38:56. | |
He was wearing a jumper in the heat to sweat out a cold, despite the | :38:57. | :38:59. | |
temperatures. He hit an unbeaten 184 | :39:00. | :39:01. | |
on the opening day of the first test against South Africa at Lord's, | :39:02. | :39:04. | |
to rescue his side, who'd been in some trouble | :39:05. | :39:06. | |
after losing early wickets. He has dispelled the theory that | :39:07. | :39:16. | |
becoming captain of a cricket team affects your form. Not when you are | :39:17. | :39:20. | |
Joe Root. I mentioned that you have a cracking day coming up if you have | :39:21. | :39:24. | |
tickets for Centre Court. Don't worry if you don't. There is plenty | :39:25. | :39:29. | |
of action across the BBC. It all starts on BBC One. On the build-up | :39:30. | :39:34. | |
starts on BBC Two from 11.30 four is that in a few moments, we will see | :39:35. | :39:39. | |
how Heather Watson got on with our game, set and mug challenge. And see | :39:40. | :39:42. | |
if she did as well as Charlie. 100 years ago today, | :39:43. | :39:48. | |
women were allowed to join One of the big changes is that women | :39:49. | :39:51. | |
can now serve on the front line. We arranged for a World War two | :39:52. | :39:59. | |
veteran to meet a new recruit to discuss their experiences of life | :40:00. | :40:02. | |
in the British army. This is a picture of me | :40:03. | :40:09. | |
when I joined the army. They put me in the signals, | :40:10. | :40:19. | |
the Royal Signals. On D-Day, I was on night | :40:20. | :40:41. | |
duty and the girls came and woke me up and said, | :40:42. | :40:44. | |
"Come and have a look People often say to me, | :40:45. | :40:46. | |
were you afraid? How do you feel you were treated as | :40:47. | :40:56. | |
a woman in the Army during the war? Mind you, some of the barracks | :40:57. | :41:06. | |
were ghastly, and sometimes What made you decide | :41:07. | :41:13. | |
to join the Army? The Army was something | :41:14. | :41:25. | |
I always wanted to do, I come from a health background, | :41:26. | :41:27. | |
so I am going to be joining That's me there, the little | :41:28. | :41:33. | |
one in the middle. We were introduced to trousers | :41:34. | :41:40. | |
for the first time, Because girls, I understand, | :41:41. | :41:45. | |
are allowed to shoot and kill? Males and females do | :41:46. | :42:08. | |
nothing different. It means that if and when the time | :42:09. | :42:12. | |
does ever come that a female needs to pull the trigger in combat, | :42:13. | :42:15. | |
she can have 100% confidence in her How do you think you would have felt | :42:16. | :42:18. | |
about that, maybe having I don't think I would | :42:19. | :42:24. | |
have any trouble. Like you girls, if it were me, | :42:25. | :42:27. | |
I would rather know how I would recommend any | :42:28. | :42:30. | |
young girl to have a go, That story has touched us all | :42:31. | :43:08. | |
morning and you have been sending in pictures of women who have been in | :43:09. | :43:11. | |
the army and are in the Army now, and we have some proud families out | :43:12. | :43:13. | |
there. We're joined now by military | :43:14. | :43:13. | |
historian and author Elisabeth Shipton and Susan Gray - | :43:14. | :43:15. | |
who has the highest military rank You are as Vice Marshal. But you | :43:16. | :43:27. | |
want to be known as soon for this interview. What is so lovely seeing | :43:28. | :43:35. | |
those two people from different generations, talking about their | :43:36. | :43:39. | |
experiences, it must resonate with you, because Barbara's generation | :43:40. | :43:42. | |
were the ones that meant you could be where you are today. Absolutely, | :43:43. | :43:49. | |
and there are many others of the same example. There is a lady called | :43:50. | :43:55. | |
Dame Felicity Hill who is 101 and well, and what she did during the | :43:56. | :43:59. | |
Second World War and after that proves that women can fulfil any | :44:00. | :44:05. | |
number of roles in the forces. What she did for us as well as many | :44:06. | :44:09. | |
others allows us to now be employed in any role in the armed services. | :44:10. | :44:16. | |
Also, times have changed. When I first joined, there were no serving | :44:17. | :44:23. | |
mothers. When did you join? In 1985. And only in the late 80s did the | :44:24. | :44:28. | |
terms and conditions of joining change so that if you wish to have a | :44:29. | :44:32. | |
family, you could return afterwards. So progress has been made. The | :44:33. | :44:38. | |
flexibility of how we employ, whether it's part-time, whether you | :44:39. | :44:45. | |
can have flexible hours. Not just is for women, I should say. Everybody | :44:46. | :44:49. | |
is treated equally. But there are many different roles and many | :44:50. | :44:54. | |
different types of employment. Elizabeth, for people like Barbara | :44:55. | :44:57. | |
and the lady you mentioned, this must seem leap years away from what | :44:58. | :45:03. | |
it was like 100 years ago today. What were the challenges women would | :45:04. | :45:04. | |
have faced initially? A lot of resistance to the ideas of | :45:05. | :45:19. | |
winning in military roles. In the past it was very much men serving to | :45:20. | :45:23. | |
protect women and protect their homes. In 1916 there is a manpower | :45:24. | :45:29. | |
crisis. The battle of the Somme devastated the Army. The decision is | :45:30. | :45:32. | |
made to put women into active service to release meant to go on | :45:33. | :45:36. | |
duty on the front line. It is a huge change of events but then women have | :45:37. | :45:42. | |
a better sense of what they are going on to do, what the reality of | :45:43. | :45:47. | |
war is like. In the course of the First World War, up to 9000 women | :45:48. | :45:54. | |
served overseas in France. What were they doing? Initially, cooks, | :45:55. | :46:01. | |
cleaning and then they took on more roles working as drivers. I like the | :46:02. | :46:08. | |
way you laughed! Also, doctors were in role as civilians. We are picking | :46:09. | :46:14. | |
up on maternity benefits in the Army now. In 1917, a woman doctor joined | :46:15. | :46:22. | |
the Royal medical Corps, duly married and then became pregnant. | :46:23. | :46:25. | |
They did not know what to do with her because there was no precedent | :46:26. | :46:30. | |
for this. So they discharged her on grounds of ill-health. It is | :46:31. | :46:34. | |
wonderful that you are here on the sofa and we are talking about a | :46:35. | :46:37. | |
success story of women in the military more generally, but | :46:38. | :46:41. | |
everyone knows, whether it is an ordinary workplace, the military or | :46:42. | :46:45. | |
a big establishment, it is one thing to change the rules, but sexism can | :46:46. | :46:50. | |
still exist within an organisation. Can you say hand on heart, do you | :46:51. | :46:55. | |
still come across things that you think hold on a minute, this should | :46:56. | :46:59. | |
not be like this, despite the fact that the ground rules have changed? | :47:00. | :47:05. | |
I can honestly say I have never experienced. I got called Love a | :47:06. | :47:12. | |
couple of times rather than by my rank, and that was often by fellow | :47:13. | :47:14. | |
officers who were old enough to be my father so I kind of put that one | :47:15. | :47:19. | |
side. Other than that I have been treated absolutely equally and I | :47:20. | :47:22. | |
think what does credit to all of the armed services is it is how you do | :47:23. | :47:26. | |
your job. If you are capable of doing your job, better than somebody | :47:27. | :47:30. | |
else, then you will be advanced up the rank structure. So, yes, I | :47:31. | :47:36. | |
laughed at your comment because we probably did, but there were also | :47:37. | :47:40. | |
lots of women doing other very technical roles during the world | :47:41. | :47:46. | |
wars, but albeit they were probably put in those roles because the men | :47:47. | :47:51. | |
had gone to fight, they did absolutely outstanding jobs and | :47:52. | :47:55. | |
paved the way for the likes of myself. I am an engineer by | :47:56. | :47:59. | |
background. We have three other senior females in the air force at | :48:00. | :48:03. | |
my rank. One is the director of legal services and the other is the | :48:04. | :48:08. | |
head of HR. I am the chief Erin Junior for the Royal Air Force. If I | :48:09. | :48:12. | |
can become the chief air engineer for the Royal Air Force, then | :48:13. | :48:16. | |
frankly, women can do anything. It has been really good to have you | :48:17. | :48:23. | |
here. Vice Marshal Susan Gray and Elisabeth Shipton, thank you for | :48:24. | :48:24. | |
your time this morning. And to mark the anniversary, | :48:25. | :48:27. | |
forces charity SSAFA held a photoshoot featuring 12 women | :48:28. | :48:29. | |
from the army, navy and the RAF. The photo includes the first | :48:30. | :48:32. | |
woman to kill in combat, the highest-ranking woman | :48:33. | :48:35. | |
in the British Army and the first transgender | :48:36. | :48:37. | |
woman to serve. Also featuring are Olympians Dame | :48:38. | :48:40. | |
Kelly Holmes and Heather Stanning. That was the official photograph | :48:41. | :48:54. | |
that you have been sending in pictures of your female friends and | :48:55. | :48:57. | |
relatives who are endless did in the military. It has been really | :48:58. | :48:59. | |
interesting seeing the response. This is a picture of | :49:00. | :49:03. | |
Joan Blair in World War II. Her daughter Alison Griffiths says | :49:04. | :49:06. | |
neither she nor her dad who served in the 23rd Royal Artillery, | :49:07. | :49:09. | |
East India Division would ever talk Alison wonders if they signed | :49:10. | :49:11. | |
the Official Secrets Act and took their secrets | :49:12. | :49:15. | |
to their graves. Sue Bonnington has | :49:16. | :49:18. | |
sent in this picture. She says the lady on the left | :49:19. | :49:25. | |
is her grandmother Nora Robinson who served in the women's airforce | :49:26. | :49:28. | |
during the First World War Samantha Babrovskie has sent in this | :49:29. | :49:31. | |
photo of her granny Joan Allen who was an Air Transport Auxiliary | :49:32. | :49:38. | |
pilot during World War II. We end with a picture from Guy whose | :49:39. | :49:43. | |
daughter Jessica was a cadet. Pictured here with her brother | :49:44. | :49:48. | |
who is in the army. Jessica is now a probationary | :49:49. | :49:53. | |
adult instructor. Thank you for your pictures. It is | :49:54. | :50:07. | |
interesting how you have all responded. Funny in Cambridge this | :50:08. | :50:11. | |
morning. We have been chasing an elusive cowl. It is there. Charlie! | :50:12. | :50:19. | |
To explain, the cow photo bombed one of our interviews earlier on, it was | :50:20. | :50:24. | |
wandering around and then it disappeared. It is in a hurry to go | :50:25. | :50:30. | |
somewhere. I asked if it was a good-looking one. I think it is. | :50:31. | :50:35. | |
That is a spectacular view in Cambridge, the sun glistening on | :50:36. | :50:38. | |
that building now. We can go to another marvellous view as well, | :50:39. | :50:43. | |
Carol is at Wimbledon at Centre Court. Good morning. | :50:44. | :50:51. | |
Good morning to you. If our lovely cameraman looks up you can see the | :50:52. | :50:57. | |
roof is closing. It goes at quite a lick. We have blue skies and some | :50:58. | :51:02. | |
fair weather cloud. The forecast for Wimbledon today is a dry one. | :51:03. | :51:08. | |
Increasingly we will see the cloud start to build which means it will | :51:09. | :51:10. | |
not be wall-to-wall blue skies. It will still be bright with sunny | :51:11. | :51:14. | |
intervals. Not quite as hot as it was yesterday but it will still be | :51:15. | :51:19. | |
hot and humid with highs up to 28 or 29. Don't forget to cover yourself | :51:20. | :51:26. | |
with some cream, hats, T-shirts and take some breaks in the shade. | :51:27. | :51:31. | |
For many of us today it will be dry and sunny. In southern England that | :51:32. | :51:38. | |
will be the case. We have some sunny weather and fair weather cloud. That | :51:39. | :51:42. | |
is the same as we move into East Anglia, the Midlands and northern | :51:43. | :51:47. | |
England as well. The temperature is romping up quickly. For Scotland, we | :51:48. | :51:51. | |
have sharia outbreaks of rain, that will be heading southwards as we go | :51:52. | :51:55. | |
through the day. For Northern Ireland, some cloud with some | :51:56. | :51:59. | |
drizzle. It will brighten up for you. For Wales, it is a bright, | :52:00. | :52:06. | |
sunny start to the day. The earlier fog now listing. Drifting from | :52:07. | :52:09. | |
Gloucestershire to the Home Counties, similar to what we have | :52:10. | :52:14. | |
here. A fair bit of sunshine around with fair weather cloud. | :52:15. | :52:20. | |
Temperatures quickly climbing. It is 21 Celsius in London at the moment. | :52:21. | :52:25. | |
Our weather front in Scotland continues to sink South. We will see | :52:26. | :52:29. | |
some heavy rain to the north of Edinburgh. It will brighten up in | :52:30. | :52:33. | |
Northern Ireland. We will see showers across northern England and | :52:34. | :52:37. | |
the Midlands but nothing like we had yesterday. The funniest guys will be | :52:38. | :52:45. | |
as we come further south. It -- the sunniest skies will be as we come | :52:46. | :52:50. | |
further south. Clear skies behind mean it will be chilly across | :52:51. | :52:56. | |
sheltered glens in Scotland overnight but still humid in the | :52:57. | :53:02. | |
south-east. Tomorrow, for Scotland and northern England, north-east | :53:03. | :53:06. | |
England, we are looking at a lot of sunshine. Through the day we will | :53:07. | :53:10. | |
see more cloud in the West, maybe more drizzle from that and some sea | :53:11. | :53:17. | |
fog lapping around Bristol Channel. Later in the day, a new weather | :53:18. | :53:21. | |
front will show its hand across the far north of Scotland and during | :53:22. | :53:25. | |
Sunday it will come south, taking rain across Scotland and Northern | :53:26. | :53:29. | |
Ireland. Ahead of it for England and Wales, a bright scarp, some sunshine | :53:30. | :53:36. | |
and showers, some of which could be heavy and thundery. A fresher feel | :53:37. | :53:41. | |
for all of us by the time we get to Sunday, leading into something more | :53:42. | :53:46. | |
changeable as we head into Monday. Mike has joined me once again. Jump | :53:47. | :53:51. | |
to attention in there! From what you are saying it will be hot for | :53:52. | :53:56. | |
Heather here this afternoon. Date you notice the difference when the | :53:57. | :54:00. | |
roof goes over. It was blistering but now it is nice and cool. Heather | :54:01. | :54:08. | |
is up first against Victoria Azarenka. Heather has also been | :54:09. | :54:14. | |
taking on our game set and mug challenge. Can she oust Andy Murray? | :54:15. | :54:17. | |
No, I think it is Andy is top. Welcome, everybody to the BBC | :54:18. | :54:29. | |
Breakfast summer tennis challenge, I am delighted to introduce | :54:30. | :54:31. | |
the current Wimbledon doubles Have you had practice, | :54:32. | :54:35. | |
any technique? Couple of practice runs and I have | :54:36. | :54:45. | |
some different techniques to try. Great, well, let's | :54:46. | :54:49. | |
see how you will go. We are ten seconds in | :54:50. | :54:51. | |
and one ball has gone in. So, we have just coming up | :54:52. | :55:12. | |
to ten seconds remaining. Now this technique does not seem | :55:13. | :55:21. | |
to be working for you, Heather. Shall we tell everyone | :55:22. | :55:29. | |
at home how many you got? Thank you for trying it | :55:30. | :55:47. | |
for being a good sport. You can see what it means to the | :55:48. | :56:10. | |
players. Four is still good. Let's hope it doesn't put her off | :56:11. | :56:18. | |
today. Charlie is still second! Andy Murray | :56:19. | :56:35. | |
is way out in the lead. Your turn next. Carol, you have your | :56:36. | :56:40. | |
sunglasses on. I am heading into the sun. I think Charlie will have a | :56:41. | :56:48. | |
wild card into Wimbledon next year. You are like an owl. I like owls | :56:49. | :56:55. | |
said that as a compliment! We don't need this on while the roof is on | :56:56. | :57:01. | |
but when we go outside... Mike, thank you for your coverage | :57:02. | :57:05. | |
from Wimbledon. I thought they were going to do the | :57:06. | :57:12. | |
challenge. At some point. Building up to it! I had a practice but it | :57:13. | :57:18. | |
did not go very well. I got one in, that was it. I look forward to it. | :57:19. | :57:30. | |
Martine Wright is with us. You appreciate a challenge, don't you? | :57:31. | :57:37. | |
Yes, there is something drawing me towards that challenge. You are | :57:38. | :57:41. | |
someone for whom challenges has become part of life. We should | :57:42. | :57:45. | |
explain. Good morning. 12 years ago today, | :57:46. | :57:47. | |
Martine Wright got on the tube Moments later, one of the passengers | :57:48. | :57:50. | |
on board detonated a bomb 52 people died that day, in what's | :57:51. | :57:56. | |
become known at the 7/7 bombings. You should probably explain the | :57:57. | :58:10. | |
nature of the injuries that you sustained on that day. I lost both | :58:11. | :58:16. | |
my legs above the knee. Apparently I lost 80% of my blood which I cannot | :58:17. | :58:20. | |
really comment. I would definitely have lost more if it had not been | :58:21. | :58:27. | |
for my guardian angel lives who put tourniquets around my legs. Your | :58:28. | :58:35. | |
book, you do not hold back, you explain very graphically what | :58:36. | :58:38. | |
happened. Liz was a police officer who happened to be close by and came | :58:39. | :58:43. | |
to your assistance? Exactly. An example of one these days when these | :58:44. | :58:49. | |
tragedies happen, these heroes risk their lives. She made her way to the | :58:50. | :58:54. | |
carriage and she saw the state of my legs. She stayed with me for an hour | :58:55. | :59:00. | |
and a quarter when I was down there. I lost 80% of my blood. I was in a | :59:01. | :59:06. | |
coma for seven days. And I was missing for nearly two days. Just | :59:07. | :59:15. | |
putting your story aside, which is a big story, of course, to put aside, | :59:16. | :59:19. | |
but one of the touching things in your book is how family and friends | :59:20. | :59:23. | |
cope. You roll your eyes but I think that is the thing that probably hits | :59:24. | :59:28. | |
you hardest. Your partner at the time, now your husband, your mother | :59:29. | :59:34. | |
and father, your sister, the frantic worry of where you were, as you said | :59:35. | :59:39. | |
when you were missing, but as you said watching you progress, take a | :59:40. | :59:44. | |
step back, progress, take a step back. How was that? I will never | :59:45. | :59:50. | |
understand the pain that they went through. It is such a shocking event | :59:51. | :59:56. | |
that happens that I don't understand sometimes how family and friends | :59:57. | :00:01. | |
deal with it. That is the whole reason why I wanted to write the | :00:02. | :00:05. | |
book, and that is why the first chapter, it is not just my story, it | :00:06. | :00:11. | |
is funnily enough, seven people's stories which I did not realise, | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
because I wanted to say that this thing did not just happened to me. | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
It happened to my family and friends and my surgeon, it happened to you | :00:19. | :00:24. | |
two. People will always remember where they were on that day and | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
obviously with recent events as well, they remember more and more. | :00:29. | :00:32. | |
That is why I wanted to write the story. | :00:33. | :00:38. | |
When something like this happens, it happens to more people than just the | :00:39. | :00:45. | |
individual. In the book, your character and the characters of your | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
family leap large out of the page. I would love you to tell the story of | :00:49. | :00:52. | |
this sequence. You are in hospital and are desperate for you to eat | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
because you are wasting away in these desperate circumstances. They | :00:57. | :00:59. | |
have been trying to get Yuta Ikeda thing to get your strength up, and | :01:00. | :01:07. | |
then one day suddenly... Yeah. I had sued if, which is a really bad | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
superbug. I was around five and a half stone and hadn't eaten -- I had | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
Clostridium difficile. And then one morning, my mum and dad had been | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
that 20 hours a day. Suddenly, I woke up and went... You know what? I | :01:21. | :01:29. | |
fancy a sausage roll. It was as if I had said there was a fire going on. | :01:30. | :01:36. | |
It was like, quick, panic! She wants a sausage roll! Dad went sweating | :01:37. | :01:44. | |
over to the shop, came back and said, there you go. Then I said, I | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
fancy a bit of brown sauce. Quick, brown sauce! It was comical, but it | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
is those situations. I truly believe that humour and laughter is a great | :01:57. | :02:03. | |
healer. I love my family. One of the things this book shows is that OK, a | :02:04. | :02:10. | |
very bad thing happened. But your life now, 12 years on, and the | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
things you have done since and the things you and your family have | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
experienced have been marvellous and you have grown and performed and | :02:19. | :02:21. | |
achieved in ways that you might not have thought of doing. Before the | :02:22. | :02:30. | |
attack. I used to call it an accident. I don't know why. But | :02:31. | :02:40. | |
yeah. It is surreal sitting here and talking to you. You are a | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
commentator now. You were part of Team GB. I was awarded the Helen | :02:44. | :02:55. | |
Rollason award. You give Ted talks. I am an inspirational speaker. I | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
just like talking! My teacher used to say, you talk too much. There is | :03:00. | :03:05. | |
a line in the book where you said you thought you were always a lucky | :03:06. | :03:12. | |
person. Completely. I will never forget, especially today, the 52 | :03:13. | :03:19. | |
people that died that day. I believe now that I couldn't have done | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
anything to stop being involved in that they are and, luckily, | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
surviving. I think I was meant to make this journey. I think I was | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
supposed to perform at the Paralympics seven years later. And I | :03:33. | :03:35. | |
am now obsessed with the number seven. This is my lucky number. It | :03:36. | :03:41. | |
is the number I wear on my shirt. And it seems to come back in my life | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
a lot. People think I am slightly mad, saying, why would you want | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
seven on your shirt after going through something so negative? But | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
it is what you have just described. When you found out you were | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
pregnant, it was your due date, the 7th of July. Yes. The initial date | :03:57. | :04:05. | |
the doctor gave me, she went, Martine, you argue on the 7th of | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
July. You can't make that up. Those things have helped me and the belief | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
that I couldn't have done anything to stop that day push me on. How do | :04:15. | :04:24. | |
you mark the 7th of July? Firstly, I think about those lost souls. I | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
might be doing this now and I might be having the opportunity of a | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
lifetime a lot at the time, but there are still people and families | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
that go through this every day. So I will go home and have a couple of | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
drinks with Nick and think about my family and be with them. But | :04:41. | :04:47. | |
celebrate, because as I said, we are the lucky ones. It has been lucky | :04:48. | :04:49. | |
having you here today. Bye bye. | :04:50. | :04:51. | |
look at the headlines If you're missing gritty police | :04:52. | :06:36. | |
dramas like Broadchurch and Line of Duty, there's another one | :06:37. | :06:41. | |
about to start on the BBC. Adapted from books by bestselling | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
novelist Mark Billingham, In The Dark sees detective | :06:46. | :06:47. | |
Helen Weeks face two of her toughest cases - while | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
also preparing to become a mother. This is what it takes | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
for her to come home, a crime scene. Do you ever think about | :06:54. | :07:16. | |
what happened all them years ago? Actor MyAnna Buring and writer | :07:17. | :07:19. | |
Mark Billingham join us now. I just caught a lovely moment, | :07:20. | :07:46. | |
MyAnna, when you picked something. It was a bit of hair on Mark's | :07:47. | :07:53. | |
phase. A huge hair! That was sweet because it has been about a year | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
since you've finished filming, and you were saying it was nice to get | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
back together and you were excited about it coming out. Usually, you | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
shoot something of a couple of months later, it is airing. But in | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
this case, it has been a year since we finished filming, so it means we | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
are getting together and it is like meeting your family again. | :08:15. | :08:19. | |
It was a lot of fun. It is unavoidable to reveal plotlines here | :08:20. | :08:27. | |
to a degree. You have a detective who was pregnant. Yes. It is a | :08:28. | :08:36. | |
personal story as much as a procedural story. There are crimes | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
to solve. And there are two cases that Helen Weeks works on, but she's | :08:41. | :08:43. | |
going through a great many things herself. In the first two episodes, | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
she is confronting her past while at the same time looking forward | :08:49. | :08:51. | |
because she's pregnant. Then we skip forward in time to the second case | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
for the last two episodes and a lot of things change. Rather curiously, | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
other time when you made this year ago, you didn't know what it was | :09:01. | :09:05. | |
like to be pregnant. But I do now. It is opposite of method acting, as | :09:06. | :09:09. | |
you were saying. I tried it out while I was acting. Do you think you | :09:10. | :09:16. | |
got it right? Not at all! It is completely different in real life, | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
but it was fun to play. Everyone says, how was it preparing? Really | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
truthfully, I was given a bump, and that changes how you move and your | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
physicality. It is really the make-up department and costume | :09:31. | :09:36. | |
department. Props to them. You have had a son. Recently. Yes. I think he | :09:37. | :09:47. | |
is outside, crying right now! We are soundproofed, so we can just hiding | :09:48. | :09:55. | |
here. Terrible mum! Tell us about your character, Helen Weeks. We are | :09:56. | :10:00. | |
always told by the press and publicity people that this is a | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
maverick character. Is this just necessary now? Do they always have | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
to break the rules? I think you are quite a relatable character in this, | :10:10. | :10:15. | |
not unhinged yet. No. You're right, she is relatable and fun. You have a | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
great, witty sense of humour, and that comes across in the novels and | :10:20. | :10:26. | |
the script. And that drew me to her because it is a baseline | :10:27. | :10:29. | |
characteristics. It is a normal human being who get put through her | :10:30. | :10:33. | |
paces. That is what you want to watch. It is not that she is | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
maverick, but what happens to her is so extreme. The character has to be | :10:39. | :10:42. | |
engaging, because that is what viewers take two. That is what they | :10:43. | :10:45. | |
will remember, not the intricacies of the plot. You have got to have | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
characters the viewers engage with straightaway. Mark, it's not a | :10:50. | :10:56. | |
criticism of the drama, but as a writer, you know this sense people | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
have at the moment of their being a lot of bad things going on? I am not | :11:00. | :11:02. | |
talking about fiction, but real life. How much of that do you think | :11:03. | :11:10. | |
about... I know this was done a year ago, but that notion of trying to | :11:11. | :11:16. | |
tap into something. How much do people want to see more harrowing | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
drama as well as what else is going on? I think people have always been | :11:21. | :11:30. | |
fascinated by crime. We can find out a lot about the society we live in | :11:31. | :11:33. | |
to the crimes committed in that society. Some people want it at the | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
cosy end, and someone took at the very dark again. TV drama and crime | :11:39. | :11:41. | |
fiction offers them all the stuff under the umbrella. As I say, I come | :11:42. | :11:48. | |
back to character. Often, truth can be told much better through fiction, | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
if you see what I mean. You can find out what it's really like. What does | :11:53. | :11:57. | |
an act of violence actually do to people? I'm not talking about | :11:58. | :12:00. | |
showing the violence, but showing what it does to the people who are | :12:01. | :12:05. | |
behind and dealing with it. That is important. How much are you | :12:06. | :12:15. | |
protected? There are some quite gory storylines, or a gory storyline and | :12:16. | :12:18. | |
it is quite disturbing. How much can you be protected from taking that | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
home? You have got to be in character and invest in the | :12:24. | :12:26. | |
character, but you have to take a break, haven't you? Everyone is | :12:27. | :12:33. | |
different, but that is part of the job, that you learn to disengage. I | :12:34. | :12:39. | |
found this quite a gruelling job, because I had to work hard to come | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
home and remind my body that it wasn't actually going through | :12:44. | :12:46. | |
trauma. I had spent a whole day upset or crying. So it was quite | :12:47. | :12:53. | |
difficult, but that is my job and there are techniques you can use to | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
calm yourself down. And sometimes, bizarrely, there is a kind of joy in | :13:01. | :13:03. | |
allowing yourself to go to quite a dark place and indulge in those | :13:04. | :13:07. | |
feelings, because you don't always do that in real life. So there is a | :13:08. | :13:11. | |
cathartic element to it as well. Lovely to see you both this morning. | :13:12. | :13:17. | |
Are you desperate to get out to Zachary? Yes! You could have brought | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
