much to the delight of the home crowd and his children. | :00:19. | :00:23. | |
Here at the London Stadium, Mo wasn't the only star out | :00:24. | :00:27. | |
on the track Usain Bolt began his bid for a 12th | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
He made it through his 100 metre heat to make today's semi finals. | :00:31. | :00:52. | |

Ireland's first openly gay Prime Minister will attend a Pride | :01:03. | :01:07. | |

And with warnings that holidaymakers could face long delays at some | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
European airports, we'll have the latest advice from travel | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
Good morning. Some sunshine today but also cloud in the sky. That will | :01:18. | :01:36. | |
deliver showers, some of them quite heavy, with the odd rumble of | :01:37. | :01:37. | |
thunder. Mo Farah has described last | :01:38. | :01:38. | |
night's 10,000 metre final at the World Athletics Championships | :01:39. | :01:47. | |
as one of the toughest races The 34-year-old, who is due | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
to retire from the track at the end of this season, has now won 10 | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
global titles in a row. Earlier in the evening, | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
Usain Bolt also began the defence of his 100 metre title, | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
as he competes professionally Our sports news Correspondent | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
Natalie Pirks was at It has become a familiar scene here. | :02:04. | :02:21. | |
The smile, the anthem, the gold. This win was arguably the greatest | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
of them all. His competitors worked hard to grind him down, as Mo tried | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
to whip the crowd into a frenzy. His rivals kicked on. Still, he held | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
firm. Down the final straight, the nation and his wife Wilkin to | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
victory. We needn't have worried. It was his fastest time in six years. | :02:43. | :02:51. | |
The training had all been worth it, to be able to celebrate with the | :02:52. | :02:57. | |
most important people in his life. I got a bit emotional at the start, | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
then I had to get in the zone, and it has just been, you know, amazing. | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
He is not the only one gear ring up for goodbye. Lapping up the London | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
love, Usain Bolt has not been lightning quick this season, but he | :03:12. | :03:18. | |
hasn't needed to be. COMMENTATOR: Here he comes, and | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
there he goes. 10.0 eight. That is him through to today's semis. He is | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
aiming for his 12th world title, and London loves him. They always show | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
me so much love. I really appreciate it. I am happy to be here. This | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
track has witnessed yet another piece of Mo Farah history. His 10th | :03:38. | :03:43. | |
global title and his most impressive yet. This stadium was built to leave | :03:44. | :03:53. | |
a legacy. Mo's will last a lifetime. That was Nathalie perks last night, | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
and this is the scene live this morning. We will have lots in the | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
programme there in the next four hours. And what a night it was. The | :04:01. | :04:11. | |
first night of the World Athletics Championship and already making | :04:12. | :04:12. | |
great headlines. Prosecutors have told the court in | :04:13. | :04:20. | |
Las Vegas that a British computer expert admitted to creating software | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
that feels bank details. A lawyer for Marcus Hutchens, 23, from Devon, | :04:25. | :04:29. | |
says he will plead not guilty. He was praised earlier this year for | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
helping to limit a global cyber attack that brought down several NHS | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
computer networks. He will appear in court next Tuesday. From Las Vegas, | :04:38. | :04:39. | |
James Cook reports. Marcus Hutchens was arrested in Las | :04:40. | :04:46. | |
Vegas after spending a week partying in the desert city. He had been | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
attending a cyber security conference there. He was detained | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
minutes before he was due to board a flight home at Las Vegas | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
international airport. In the cyber Security industry he is regarded as | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
something of a folk hero for his role in stopping the so-called | :05:04. | :05:09. | |
WannaCry virus which it the NHS in May before spending to 150 other | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
countries. The charges are not related to that. He is accused, in | :05:14. | :05:20. | |
the state of Wisconsin, of creating software which was designed, the | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
prosecutors say, to harvest online banking details and credit card | :05:26. | :05:31. | |
data. The software is called Chronos and US prosecutors say it was used | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
in a number of countries, including the UK, France, Germany and Canada. | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
That was James Cook. The United States has officially informed the | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
United Nations that it is withdrawing from the Paris climate | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
agreement. In June, President Donald Trump drew international | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
condemnation when he announced the decision to leave the agreement | :05:53. | :05:55. | |
which had been drawn up by nearly 200 nations to curb greenhouse gas | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
emissions in 2015. The State Department says the United States | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
will continue to participate in climate change meetings until the | :06:04. | :06:09. | |
withdrawal process is completed. Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
continues his first official visit to Northern Ireland today. The | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
openly gay tea sack will attend a pride event in Balzac. Earlier he | :06:18. | :06:24. | |
suggested a bilateral customs union could read the best way to deal with | :06:25. | :06:27. | |
the UK's border with the Republic. The Irish border has become a | :06:28. | :06:34. | |
divisive issue in the debate about Brexit. The scores of completely | :06:35. | :06:38. | |
open roads that connect Northern Ireland and the Republic carry huge | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
amounts of traffic and trade, and on his first official visit north of | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
the border as Ireland's Prime Minister, Leo Varadkar insisted that | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
the free movement of people, goods and services should continue here | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
after the UK leads the EU. Perhaps the challenge for our generation is | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
Brexit. Every single aspect of life in Northern Ireland could be | :07:02. | :07:04. | |
affected by the outcome. We will do all that we can in Brussels, London | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
and double in, to achieve the best outcome for everybody on the silent. | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
-- Dublin. To protect our peace, our freedom, our prosperity. Leo | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
Varadkar has also been meeting Northern Ireland's main political | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
parties, including the DUP, who supported Brexit. They have taken | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
exception to some of his recent comments that were critical of those | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
he called the hard Brexiteers. Some of his party members have also | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
questioned his decision to attend and event this morning as part of | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
Belfast Pride. The organisation is campaigning for the introduction of | :07:41. | :07:43. | |
same-sex marriage in Northern Ireland, which in the past the DUP | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
has blocked. Leo Varadkar is openly gay and has campaigned during the | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
Republic's marriage equality referendum two years ago. But the | :07:51. | :07:55. | |
Democratic Unionists have suggested he should not interfere with social | :07:56. | :08:00. | |
issues within Northern Ireland. Brexit is, however, expected to have | :08:01. | :08:04. | |
an impact on both sides of the border, and as a result the Irish | :08:05. | :08:08. | |
government are likely to remain very vocal as the UK continues to | :08:09. | :08:10. | |
negotiate its departure from the EU. After eight o'clock we will hear | :08:11. | :08:19. | |
from the former Northern Ireland Secretary, who says the Irish Prime | :08:20. | :08:22. | |
Minister's intervention is very welcome. Scientists are warning the | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
number of people killed by extreme weather conditions in Europe could | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
increase 50 fold by the end of the century. A study in the Lancet in a | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
tree health Journal suggests that heatwaves of an good account for | :08:37. | :08:42. | |
100,000 deaths per year. Researchers in Italy say urgent action is needed | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
to curb the effects of climate change. A man has died after being | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
shot in the chest outside a petrol station in Chelmsford. Essex Police | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
were called to the scene at two o'clock this morning. Detectives say | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
the victim and another man, both in their 20s, were outside the petrol | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
station when a blue Ford Fiesta pulled up. One of the man was shot | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
before the car was driven off. A murder investigation is now under | :09:07. | :09:11. | |
way. People closely connected to video sharing site you should have | :09:12. | :09:14. | |
told the BBC that the company's child protection measures are | :09:15. | :09:19. | |
failing. -- U-tube. A say the site has a backlog of issues regarding | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
grooming and child exportation. They also claim that members of the | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
public to flag up material are unlikely to hear back from the | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
company. U-tube, owned by Google, says it is strictly prohibits | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
content which sexually exploits miners. Michael and ling reports. | :09:35. | :09:41. | |
YouTube is used by more than 1.5 billion people around the month -- | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
world each month. And it is a favourite of kids and teenagers. One | :09:47. | :09:49. | |
of the measures keeping them safe is a group of volunteers and is Trusted | :09:50. | :09:54. | |
Flaggers. They scour the site looking for material which breaks | :09:55. | :09:58. | |
YouTube's rules, but was bloggers from inside the programme had told | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
the BBC the site have a huge backlog of complaints. -- whistleblowers. | :10:03. | :10:07. | |
The complaints are not about child pornography, but rather sexually | :10:08. | :10:10. | |
exposed comments left on videos posted by teenagers and children. | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
One volunteer told the BBC he made more than neither is in reports over | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
eight months ago and none of them have been protests. -- 9000 reports | :10:19. | :10:24. | |
over eight months ago and none of them have in process. They also | :10:25. | :10:27. | |
claim that members of the public to report material are unlikely to get | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
a response. YouTube, owned by Google, said in a statement it's | :10:32. | :10:34. | |
tricky prohibits content which sexually exploits miners. The | :10:35. | :10:37. | |
whistleblowers says that YouTube needs to devote -- increase money | :10:38. | :10:46. | |
and staff devoted to child safety. Millions of rail passengers are | :10:47. | :10:50. | |
facing up to three weeks of disruption as work to update the | :10:51. | :10:53. | |
UK's busiest train station gets under way today. Around ?800 million | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
is being spent to revamp ten platforms at Waterloo station, to | :10:58. | :11:04. | |
account for longer trains and create extra space for passengers. It is | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
due to be finished at the end of August. | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
We have all been there. Happily driving along, minding our own | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
business, when a cat or a fox or a dog darts out in front of the car. | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
Imagine having to swerve to avoid this. Down! Look at the size of the | :11:21. | :11:28. | |
thing! It is a rhinoceros. It is a rhinoceros, I know. It certainly is! | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
Well spotted. As long as it is running away from you, you would be | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
fine. If you are in that Redcar, reversing very quickly, you would be | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
quite concerned. The rhinoceros decides to charge it. That is what | :11:43. | :11:48. | |
confronted motorists in the Indian state of Assam. The rhinoceros went | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
into the road and started charging cars. The region is home to 70% of | :11:53. | :11:56. | |
the world's greater one horned rhinoceros is. An impressive bit of | :11:57. | :12:06. | |
reversing. It was fine. It went into a nearby field, and the rhino was | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
fine. So were the cars. Let's look at the front pages. Well, who do you | :12:11. | :12:18. | |
think is going to be on most of the front pages? I wonder. Mo Farah. We | :12:19. | :12:24. | |
are getting used to that face. That race was now biting. He said it was | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
one of the toughest he has ever run. We are going to be talking to Jo | :12:29. | :12:33. | |
Pavey later. We are also going to be talking to Paula Radcliffe about | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
just what he went through for that. And Theresa May's top aide breaks | :12:39. | :12:43. | |
his silence on the poll disaster. He has revealed for the first time what | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
went wrong in the general election campaign and what he thinks the | :12:48. | :12:50. | |
Conservative Party needs to do to avoid defeat in five years. Nick | :12:51. | :12:55. | |
Timothy has signed as a columnist with the Daily Telegraph. You could | :12:56. | :12:58. | |
almost cut-and-paste these pages from Mo Farah with all of his | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
victories over the past five years. That looks like London 2012. But it | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
was last night. The story at the bottom is an anarchist threat to | :13:08. | :13:11. | |
tourists. The safety fears, the safety alert over fears of violent | :13:12. | :13:15. | |
protests in Europe. That is the main story on the front page of the | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
Telegraph. The sun has a world picture exclusive of wins Harry and | :13:20. | :13:26. | |
his girlfriend. -- The Sun. Sheer salivating her birthday. The Daily | :13:27. | :13:32. | |
Mirror has an exclusive from a chauffeur who was involved with | :13:33. | :13:37. | |
Princess Diana's limousine. That of course comes as we approach the 20th | :13:38. | :13:40. | |
anniversary of her death. He says it was a death trap. The picture on the | :13:41. | :13:45. | |
front page has an interview at Charlie Gard's parents, Connie and | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
Chris. That little boy died a few days ago in a hospice and they are | :13:50. | :13:55. | |
talking about how they finally took him home. The lead story on the | :13:56. | :13:58. | |
front page of the Daily Mail. Mutiny at the National Trust. Volunteers | :13:59. | :14:02. | |
have accused the National Trust and trampling on their rights by making | :14:03. | :14:06. | |
them where gay pride badges, saying that dozens of unpaid guides have | :14:07. | :14:09. | |
quit or refuse to work following a cat to mark 50 years since the | :14:10. | :14:14. | |
decriminalisation of homosexuality. -- a dictat. And the front page of | :14:15. | :14:20. | |
the FT, the weekend edition. They have Usain Bolt on the front page as | :14:21. | :14:24. | |
he prepares to hang up his boots after running in London. They have a | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
story about liver. Travis Kalanick, the former chief executive, he has | :14:30. | :14:33. | |
now been ousted, but he wants to have a say in the future direction | :14:34. | :14:38. | |
of Uber. They also have an interesting story here about the | :14:39. | :14:41. | |
Royal Bank Of Scotland. RBS braced for the threat of a hard Brexit with | :14:42. | :14:46. | |
an Amsterdam contingency plan. Obviously we spoke about that | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
earlier this week, with RBS saying that a few jobs, about 150, would be | :14:51. | :14:56. | |
based in Holland in the Netherlands. Just as it is preparing to Brexit, | :14:57. | :15:01. | |
as the UK leads the EU. Peter Russia will be with us with papers later | :15:02. | :15:03. | |
on. The main stories this morning: Mo | :15:04. | :15:12. | |
Farah has secured a 10th straight global title at the athletics | :15:13. | :15:15. | |
championships in London. He begins his long goodbye. Prosecutors in the | :15:16. | :15:21. | |
US say a British computer expert has admitted to creating software that | :15:22. | :15:26. | |
steals bank details, an allegation his lawyer denies. | :15:27. | :15:29. | |
Here's Jay with a look at this morning's weather. | :15:30. | :15:36. | |
Good morning. That looks ominous! Ominous but promising, maybe? A bit | :15:37. | :15:47. | |
of a mixed bag. Some sunshine, that is a positive thing. However cloud | :15:48. | :15:51. | |
is building and there are already some showers out there. Quite heavy | :15:52. | :15:56. | |
through the day. Some rumbles of Bunder, temperatures not that high. | :15:57. | :16:02. | |
Starting out on a reasonable note, but not going to rise that much. Low | :16:03. | :16:07. | |
20s at the very best. Showers around early on, heavy showers around with | :16:08. | :16:13. | |
some hail and Bunder mixed in. Drifting east through the day in two | :16:14. | :16:19. | |
parts of Wales the Midlands East Anglia. Further north, scattering of | :16:20. | :16:23. | |
showers across Scotland and Northern Ireland. Sunshine between a showers, | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
temperatures getting into the middle teams. Some dry and brighter spells, | :16:28. | :16:35. | |
through the afternoon, top temperatures in the upper teens and | :16:36. | :16:40. | |
low 20s. Those showers moving through, could be quite heavy with | :16:41. | :16:44. | |
the odd rumble of thunder. A mixed bag. The council some rain at the | :16:45. | :16:49. | |
World Championship athletics. But the day will be more dry and wet. | :16:50. | :16:56. | |
Top temperatures, 18- 19 degrees. The evening, showers fading away. | :16:57. | :17:00. | |
High pressure building in. A weather front coming in from the west, but | :17:01. | :17:05. | |
as sky is clear, turning chilly. Hanging on to double figures away | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
from the North of Scotland. The North of Scotland, temperatures are | :17:12. | :17:14. | |
lowest. Single figures for many areas. We could see some | :17:15. | :17:20. | |
early-morning frost. A chilly start, but a bright start for many. Cloud | :17:21. | :17:26. | |
increasing in the north and west. Rain pushing through Northern | :17:27. | :17:28. | |
Ireland, into western England and parts of Wales. The further south | :17:29. | :17:34. | |
and east, fine and dry. Temperatures getting up to similar values to | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
today, probably feeling a bit warmer. 21- 22 degrees. For the | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
community Shield cup, a pretty decent day. Mostly dry with some | :17:45. | :17:47. | |
sunshine, temperatures 21- 22. Now it's time | :17:48. | :17:53. | |
for The Film Review with Jane Hill Hello and welcome to | :17:54. | :17:56. | |
The Film Review on BBC News. To take us through this week's | :17:57. | :18:18. | |
cinema releases is James King. We have Valerian And The City | :18:19. | :18:21. | |
Of A Thousand Planets, a mega budget sci-fi | :18:22. | :18:29. | |
from Luc Besson starring England is Mine takes | :18:30. | :18:31. | |
a look at the early years of Manchester's | :18:32. | :18:35. | |
answer to Oscar Wilde, And to quote the man himself, | :18:36. | :18:37. | |
panic on the streets of London, panic on the | :18:38. | :18:52. | |
streets of Birmingham. Yes, The Emoji Movie has been let | :18:53. | :18:54. | |
loose onto an unsuspecting I read that Valerian | :18:55. | :18:57. | |
is possibly the most Most expensive European | :18:58. | :19:06. | |
film of all time. Actually, 20 years ago, | :19:07. | :19:16. | |
there was a film called The Fifth Element which Luc Besson, | :19:17. | :19:19. | |
the same director, had made At that point, that was the most | :19:20. | :19:22. | |
expensive European film Now it is Valerian, | :19:23. | :19:25. | |
with a budget of $200 million, which could not buy Neymar, | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
but it is still a lot of money. It is about a couple | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
of intergalactic secret agents who are investigating | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
strange goings-on at the Alpha Cara Delevingne | :19:38. | :19:40. | |
and Dane Dehaan star. You said you wanted | :19:41. | :19:47. | |
the shortest way. Would I be right in saying | :19:48. | :20:01. | |
you can see the money? But watching it, I just thought | :20:02. | :20:32. | |
how much has changed in the 20 years since | :20:33. | :20:39. | |
The Fifth Element. The sci-fi and space movies we have | :20:40. | :20:42. | |
had from people like Christopher Nolan and JJ Abrahams | :20:43. | :20:45. | |
with his Star Trek and Star Wars movies, | :20:46. | :20:47. | |
and Alfonso Cuaron and actually, Valerian looks expensive, but it | :20:48. | :20:50. | |
looks like an expensive 90s movie. I don't think it | :20:51. | :21:04. | |
looks as elegant and as chic and certainly not | :21:05. | :21:06. | |
as cerebral as the more recent We saw it towards | :21:07. | :21:09. | |
the end of that clip. It looks quite gaudy | :21:10. | :21:15. | |
and camp and dare 20 years ago, there | :21:16. | :21:17. | |
was a silliness about The Fifth Element, but perhaps | :21:18. | :21:24. | |
we were more forgiving. But a lot has changed in that 20 | :21:25. | :21:27. | |
years, so now I am not so sure that Luc Besson's | :21:28. | :21:30. | |
style, and he does have a very distinctive style, | :21:31. | :21:33. | |
feels so of the moment And what do you make | :21:34. | :21:36. | |
of Cara Delevingne? Well, she's clearly | :21:37. | :21:39. | |
very comfortable She is arguably the world's | :21:40. | :21:42. | |
most famous model, Is she, on the evidence | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
of this movie, However, she's very young | :21:47. | :21:55. | |
and there is plenty of time I think the leads are not | :21:56. | :22:00. | |
the most charismatic. If you see the trailer, | :22:01. | :22:04. | |
you will see Rihanna Rihanna is not in | :22:05. | :22:06. | |
the movie that much. That is a bit of a cheat | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
on the part of the marketing. I would have liked to have | :22:11. | :22:13. | |
seen her in it more They are very much | :22:14. | :22:16. | |
supporting characters. If it just looked really good, cool, | :22:17. | :22:22. | |
I would have forgiven it these We couldn't have anything | :22:23. | :22:25. | |
more different for our This is a biopic of Morrissey's | :22:26. | :22:28. | |
early years in the run up to him meeting Johnny Marr | :22:29. | :22:33. | |
and forming The Smiths. The title is from a Smiths | :22:34. | :22:35. | |
song, Still Ill. It stars Jack Lowden, | :22:36. | :22:38. | |
who is in Dunkirk He is Tom Hardy's | :22:39. | :22:40. | |
colleague in that movie. Very good in Dunkirk and very good | :22:41. | :22:51. | |
in this as a young Morrissey. The downside is that | :22:52. | :23:13. | |
the first half of the film, Morrissey | :23:14. | :23:15. | |
is so painfully shy as a teenager So you have a film where you really | :23:16. | :23:18. | |
don't know what is going on in his head because he is such | :23:19. | :23:23. | |
an insular character. And the film really is about him | :23:24. | :23:26. | |
coming out of his shell. Most interestingly, | :23:27. | :23:29. | |
the women in his life encouraging him to come out | :23:30. | :23:31. | |
of his shell, his family Do you need to be a fan | :23:32. | :23:34. | |
of the Smiths to enjoy it or could this be | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
a coming-of-age film? That is certainly | :23:39. | :23:40. | |
what it's trying to be. There are Adrian Mole-esque | :23:41. | :23:42. | |
elements of it with the nerdy, shy teenager, but also | :23:43. | :23:44. | |
about if you follow your dreams, then they will come true, | :23:45. | :23:48. | |
which perhaps isn't immediately what you think of when | :23:49. | :23:50. | |
thinking of Morrissey, That is when he does come out | :23:51. | :23:52. | |
of his shell and becomes more That's when he becomes | :23:53. | :23:59. | |
more interesting. It's August, children | :24:00. | :24:01. | |
are not at school. Even watching the | :24:02. | :24:04. | |
trailer for The Emoji Do you think Morrissey | :24:05. | :24:08. | |
has ever used an Signed off a text | :24:09. | :24:12. | |
with a smiley face? In terms of plot, The Emoji Movie | :24:13. | :24:14. | |
is very convoluted. It is trying to be the Lego Movie, | :24:15. | :24:17. | |
desperately, which was a couple of years ago and a huge | :24:18. | :24:23. | |
success critically and commercially. It is about this emoji | :24:24. | :24:26. | |
living in a phone in this emoji city which is very | :24:27. | :24:29. | |
uniform and regimented, He wants to prove he is | :24:30. | :24:32. | |
different to everyone else and special and doesn't | :24:33. | :24:36. | |
follow the herd. Indifferent, the feeling I had | :24:37. | :24:38. | |
when coming out of Valerian. So he is a meh face, | :24:39. | :24:44. | |
but he wants to be more In this clip, we have, | :24:45. | :24:48. | |
I can't believe I am saying this, Sir Patrick Stewart | :24:49. | :24:52. | |
voicing a poop emoji... And James Corden voicing | :24:53. | :24:54. | |
a high five emoji. Come on, tell me you aren't just | :24:55. | :24:57. | |
a little bit tempted. Steven, for the last time, | :24:58. | :25:12. | |
I don't want to buy a time share. I mean, look at me, | :25:13. | :25:16. | |
I'm an attractive hand What age group do you | :25:17. | :25:24. | |
think this is aimed at? I would say young | :25:25. | :25:37. | |
and indiscriminating. Maybe a first film | :25:38. | :25:40. | |
when you haven't seen We would forgive it a lot | :25:41. | :25:43. | |
more and of course, The Lego Movie, mentioned | :25:44. | :25:50. | |
earlier, was very funny. The level of comedy | :25:51. | :25:53. | |
in animations is very high. But I have read a lot | :25:54. | :25:56. | |
about the cynical nature Because it is not funny, | :25:57. | :25:59. | |
because you are not laughing, you are looking at the downside, | :26:00. | :26:03. | |
which is that it Even though it is supposedly | :26:04. | :26:06. | |
about an emoji who wants to be an individual, | :26:07. | :26:11. | |
a bit different, actually, what it is selling | :26:12. | :26:13. | |
you are very corporate So it does feel a bit | :26:14. | :26:15. | |
like an advert as they run around this phone and run to | :26:16. | :26:22. | |
different apps and games. Better children's films | :26:23. | :26:25. | |
are available this summer... Best out at the moment, | :26:26. | :26:29. | |
The Big Sick? Doing very well at the box office, | :26:30. | :26:32. | |
so that is good to see. A romantic comedy | :26:33. | :26:40. | |
about an interracial It is also literally | :26:41. | :26:42. | |
about a girlfriend in a coma. The lead female character | :26:43. | :26:47. | |
gets very ill, and it is written by Kumail | :26:48. | :26:49. | |
Nanjiani and Emily Gordon. It is their story, the story | :26:50. | :26:54. | |
of how they got together. So even though it is | :26:55. | :26:59. | |
dealing with big topics, it feels very | :27:00. | :27:01. | |
personal and charming. They are happy to tip their hat | :27:02. | :27:03. | |
to Richard Curtis and Judd I like romantic | :27:04. | :27:06. | |
comedies when they are We are often a bit down | :27:07. | :27:12. | |
on them as a genre, but when done well, | :27:13. | :27:16. | |
they are incredibly charming. I am pleased that they are | :27:17. | :27:18. | |
celebrating how good If you want to sit on the sofa | :27:19. | :27:20. | |
instead, what is your Free Fire, from Ben Wheatley, | :27:21. | :27:26. | |
co-written with his He works across different | :27:27. | :27:28. | |
genres, comedy and crime and dystopian sci-fi, | :27:29. | :27:32. | |
but actually in all of his movies, there is this great feeling that | :27:33. | :27:35. | |
things are about to go Things are about to kick off, | :27:36. | :27:38. | |
literally in this film, because it is about | :27:39. | :27:47. | |
a meeting in the 70s in this disused | :27:48. | :27:49. | |
warehouse in Boston It is a meeting between | :27:50. | :27:51. | |
gangsters and arms dealers, and it is very tense | :27:52. | :27:58. | |
and nerve-wracking and then the Free Fire | :27:59. | :28:00. | |
of the title kicks It is not just a shoot | :28:01. | :28:03. | |
'em up, though. It harks back to gutsy | :28:04. | :28:08. | |
70s action films. Martin Scorsese actually | :28:09. | :28:14. | |
is the executive producer of this film and it does have | :28:15. | :28:15. | |
that gutsy, dirty feel Hello, this is Breakfast | :28:16. | :28:18. | |
with Naga Munchetty and Roger Coming up before 7:00 we'll | :28:19. | :29:55. | |
have the weather with Jay. But first at 6:30, a summary of this | :29:56. | :29:58. | |
morning's main news. Mo Farah has been celebrating his | :29:59. | :30:01. | |

An unusual friend for a picture to make. -- butcher. | :33:44. | :33:49. | |
Sean Landy found Lily the lamb shivering in a hedge near his farm | :33:50. | :33:52. | |
Barely a week old, she's now moved in with the sheepdogs | :33:53. | :33:57. | |
Mr Landy's confirmed that Lily "definitely isn't going to end up | :33:58. | :34:01. | |
That is a relief. I know a couple of farmers and you think they always | :34:02. | :34:12. | |
have to be heartless, but they are not. They have to care for the | :34:13. | :34:16. | |
animals, and they do, and they feed them by hand and rear them and | :34:17. | :34:19. | |
everything. They all have hearts. The cow was she is fitting in with | :34:20. | :34:23. | |
the dogs. You are absolutely right. One of my oldest friends as a farmer | :34:24. | :34:28. | |
and all of their animals are almost like hats. Yeah, it is a business, | :34:29. | :34:30. | |
but they still love them. So, last night was quite thrilling. | :34:31. | :34:40. | |
The World Athletics Championship. Fans can look forward to more | :34:41. | :34:44. | |
excitement on the weekend. Mo Farah made the headlines last night, but | :34:45. | :34:48. | |
Usain Bolt was on the track as well. Jess is live from London Stadium | :34:49. | :34:51. | |
this morning. You have the place to yourself at this time of morning, | :34:52. | :34:56. | |
but what a night last night? Yes, good morning. It really was a | :34:57. | :35:01. | |
special night of athletics last night. Mo Farah delivered yet again | :35:02. | :35:07. | |
to get feed British team off to a brilliant start -- the British team | :35:08. | :35:12. | |
off to a brilliant start of the championships. I was lucky enough to | :35:13. | :35:16. | |
be here and the atmosphere was amazing. If you can just imagine | :35:17. | :35:21. | |
tens of thousands of fans all around, roaring Mo Farah along the | :35:22. | :35:25. | |
track as he ran. The noise was absolutely deafening. I am actually | :35:26. | :35:30. | |
on the track. This is exactly where Mo Farah was when he made his | :35:31. | :35:34. | |
trademark sprint to the line. We have seen it time and time again | :35:35. | :35:39. | |
from Mo Farah. Absolutely fantastic, beating his rivals across the line. | :35:40. | :35:46. | |
What a night. It was his Third World title and what a thrilling race it | :35:47. | :35:51. | |
was. Actually, Mo Farah really had to work for it. He held off a | :35:52. | :35:56. | |
determined challenge from his rivals and even survived a couple of | :35:57. | :36:00. | |
stumbles on what was aide will a string final lap. -- on what was a | :36:01. | :36:09. | |
blistering final lap. You gave us a scare going around the bend, | :36:10. | :36:12. | |
chipping twice and stepping out of your lane. You have lied to there as | :36:13. | :36:16. | |
well! A couple of losers, at I am all right. You know what it is like | :36:17. | :36:23. | |
to double up, you have four days for the 5000 metres. You have to go | :36:24. | :36:27. | |
through a hit for that one. How do you do that now, block this out or | :36:28. | :36:32. | |
enjoy it for a bit? Yes, you have to block it out. It is a moment that is | :36:33. | :36:36. | |
done now, I have to get back to the basics. Each, sleep, rest. That is | :36:37. | :36:41. | |
what it takes if I want to come back for the five kilometre run. I just | :36:42. | :36:45. | |
have to take care of my body. The crowd had already been treated to | :36:46. | :36:48. | |
Usain Bolt was the first appearance at his final championship before he | :36:49. | :36:51. | |
retires. He recovered from a dreadful start win his 100 metres | :36:52. | :36:56. | |
heat, and reached today's semifinals. He was not happy with | :36:57. | :37:01. | |
his rumpled starting blocks. I am not really fond of these blocks. I | :37:02. | :37:05. | |
think these are the worst locks I've ever experienced. -- blocks. I have | :37:06. | :37:13. | |
to get this together, I can't keep doing this. What is it about the | :37:14. | :37:18. | |
blocks in particular? It is tricky, because when I did my warm up and | :37:19. | :37:22. | |
pushed back, it felt like... It is just not what I'm used to. Not as | :37:23. | :37:27. | |
sturdy, not as firm as I'm used to. Rhys Prescott ran a personal best to | :37:28. | :37:34. | |
reach the semifinals in his first gen bishops. He said he loved being | :37:35. | :37:39. | |
in front of a world crowd. All three British bridges made it through, so | :37:40. | :37:45. | |
we will see them all on the track again this evening. | :37:46. | :37:49. | |
Also in action will be Laura Muir, who is expired to take athletics | :37:50. | :37:54. | |
career to the next level when she watched London critic of ontology. | :37:55. | :38:00. | |
-- inspired stop she goes in the 1500 metres semifinals along with | :38:01. | :38:02. | |
Jessica Judd, Laura Weightman and Sarah McDonald. Now let's take a | :38:03. | :38:10. | |
look at the rest of today's sport. It is delicately balanced after day | :38:11. | :38:14. | |
one of the fourth and final test against South Africa at Old | :38:15. | :38:15. | |
Trafford. England captain Joe Root made | :38:16. | :38:16. | |
a half-century for his 10th Test match in a row - and Ben Stokes hit | :38:17. | :38:19. | |
58, but he was out just England will resume later this | :38:20. | :38:23. | |
morning on 260 for 6. Well, you always want 400 in the | :38:24. | :38:35. | |
first innings of any test match. I think having lost Ben just at the | :38:36. | :38:40. | |
close, if we can get 350 I think we would take that right now. 350 plus, | :38:41. | :38:45. | |
definitely, you always want to try to get. Maybe that last week it | :38:46. | :38:51. | |
might in case you are fit. -- last wicket might not be few off it. -- | :38:52. | :38:55. | |
knock a few. The English domestic football season | :38:56. | :38:57. | |
is already underway. Sunderland began life back | :38:58. | :38:59. | |
in the Championship with a 1-all After Bradley Johnson | :39:00. | :39:02. | |
had put Derby ahead, Lewis Grabban equalised | :39:03. | :39:05. | |
from the penalty spot. Elsewhere Nottingham Forest | :39:06. | :39:07. | |
beat Millwall 1-0. The Scottish Premiership | :39:08. | :39:09. | |
season starts today, champions Celtic play Hearts | :39:10. | :39:10. | |
in the lunchtime kick off. English golfer Georgia Hall is two | :39:11. | :39:13. | |
shots off the pace at the half-way It is actually raining here, and | :39:14. | :39:22. | |
action gets under way from Sandercock. You wonder how much this | :39:23. | :39:26. | |
might affect Katarina Johnson-Thompson indeed heptathlon. | :39:27. | :39:33. | |
She goes from ten o'clock in the 100 metre hurdles. I hope this doesn't | :39:34. | :39:37. | |
affect her. We will hope so, for sure. Thank you, Jess. | :39:38. | :39:40. | |
Lots of action to look forward to today. | :39:41. | :39:43. | |
Well, as we've been hearing it's a busy Saturday | :39:44. | :39:45. | |
at the World Athletics Championships with 18 events at the London | :39:46. | :39:48. | |
Here's a quick look ahead to some of the moments | :39:49. | :39:51. | |
Katarina Johnson-Thompson has long been tipped as the successor to | :39:52. | :40:03. | |
Jessica Ennis-Hill. She is now living and training in France, but | :40:04. | :40:07. | |
can she win her first senior heptathlon medal on home soil? | :40:08. | :40:11. | |
Sophie Hitchon became the first female British Olympic hammer | :40:12. | :40:14. | |
medallist in Brazil last summer, with a last round throw of 74.54 | :40:15. | :40:19. | |
metres turn a bronze medal. Will the Lachish Atley to be able to put our | :40:20. | :40:23. | |
competitors in a spin and replicate that success? -- Lancashire. Usain | :40:24. | :40:29. | |
Bolt will compete in his last ever individual event. He qualified first | :40:30. | :40:32. | |
in his heat in a performance which she said was far from his best, | :40:33. | :40:36. | |
blaming the starting blocks. Can he recovered to deliver the | :40:37. | :40:39. | |
showstopping performance that we have come to expect? There is | :40:40. | :40:42. | |
coverage throughout the day on BBC Two from 1980 a.m. And on BBC One | :40:43. | :40:47. | |
from 60. Brilliant, well done. It is 6:40am. | :40:48. | :40:52. | |
If you're still to go on your summer holiday or you know someone | :40:53. | :40:55. | |
who is travelling home this weekend, be warned - | :40:56. | :40:58. | |
there could be delays at some airports across Europe. | :40:59. | :41:00. | |
British Airways, EasyJet and Ryanair have sent text messages | :41:01. | :41:03. | |
to passengers, warning them to be at their chosen airport up to three | :41:04. | :41:06. | |
hours early to avoid missing their flight. | :41:07. | :41:08. | |
Lengthy queues were reported earlier this week at airports | :41:09. | :41:11. | |
in France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Croatia and Greece, | :41:12. | :41:13. | |
where enhanced security checks combined with high volumes | :41:14. | :41:15. | |
of passengers have been causing disruption. | :41:16. | :41:21. | |
Joining us now is the Independent's travel editor, Simon Calder. | :41:22. | :41:28. | |
Good morning. You obviously didn't get held up in a queue trying to get | :41:29. | :41:36. | |
in here, but it will be a headache for a lot of people? Yes, let's just | :41:37. | :41:40. | |
deal with the British end. It will be very busy if you are flying out | :41:41. | :41:44. | |
this weekend. Tomorrow is the busiest day of the summer for | :41:45. | :41:49. | |
Heathrow, the UK's the guest and busiest airport. They expect a | :41:50. | :41:52. | |
quarter of a million people coming through. That is not whether | :41:53. | :41:56. | |
problems will be, though. It is when you get to somewhere in the Schengen | :41:57. | :41:59. | |
area, which is the main countries where you go on holiday, the ones | :42:00. | :42:03. | |
you have just shown, France and Spain and Portugal and Croatia in | :42:04. | :42:07. | |
Greece and so on, and a couple of others, they have changed the rules. | :42:08. | :42:11. | |
Previously you turned up on a charter flight from Manchester or | :42:12. | :42:14. | |
the East Midlands or whatever... That is a well travelled passport. | :42:15. | :42:18. | |
Thank you. You wave your passport at the official and here she would say, | :42:19. | :42:22. | |
OK, you are on holiday, off you go. A couple of myth and you are | :42:23. | :42:26. | |
through. Bart is now everybody has to have their details checked | :42:27. | :42:29. | |
against some European databases. That increases the time. It is going | :42:30. | :42:34. | |
to be annoying, if you want to get to the beach or the bar and you are | :42:35. | :42:39. | |
stuck in line. We have had reports of some people waiting several hours | :42:40. | :42:42. | |
to get into some of the big airports. The big problem is coming | :42:43. | :42:46. | |
back. You go through tackle the same track. -- through exactly the same | :42:47. | :42:52. | |
check, at a Spanish or Italian or Portuguese airport. That is | :42:53. | :42:55. | |
surprising, because when you go on holiday you expect that you might | :42:56. | :42:58. | |
get checked when you get there. They want to be careful about who is | :42:59. | :43:02. | |
coming in. But when you leave, you expect they are happy to let you go. | :43:03. | :43:07. | |
Yes, when you fly out of the UK there is no actual passport chip. | :43:08. | :43:10. | |
The authorities know that you are travelling because the Allied has | :43:11. | :43:13. | |
passed on all your details. In the Schengen area, they say we want to | :43:14. | :43:17. | |
check everybody going out as well. The resources are stretched to | :43:18. | :43:20. | |
breaking point. As a result of that we have seen some people missing | :43:21. | :43:23. | |
their flights, which is why the allies are saying you should get | :43:24. | :43:27. | |
there early. If you are delayed at the airport, is there any | :43:28. | :43:30. | |
compensation that you can claim if you miss your flight? No. In | :43:31. | :43:33. | |
general. I spoke to the Association of British insurers, and they said | :43:34. | :43:39. | |
that delay travel insurance is designed for unexpected disruption. | :43:40. | :43:42. | |
Everybody knows that this is happening. The allies have told you | :43:43. | :43:46. | |
to get there early. If you miss that, you are on your own. Some | :43:47. | :43:50. | |
airlines will allow you, at a slight charge, to switch to a later flight. | :43:51. | :43:54. | |
The big problem is that all the airlines are pretty much full at the | :43:55. | :43:57. | |
moment. You could be waiting days. What is the advice? Going on | :43:58. | :44:02. | |
holiday, you don't want to hang out at the airport for three hours. | :44:03. | :44:07. | |
Don't allow too much time. The danger is that people hear this, | :44:08. | :44:12. | |
three hours beforehand, but they get there for hours or five hours | :44:13. | :44:16. | |
beforehand, and they end up creating a problem by adding extra pressure. | :44:17. | :44:20. | |
I would personally arrive somewhere between 2-3 hours ahead. Airports in | :44:21. | :44:28. | |
some places, like Palma, they are doing queue combing. They say, who | :44:29. | :44:32. | |
is flying to Birmingham? We will rush you to the front. That is | :44:33. | :44:36. | |
annoying if you are going to Gatwick and you are left standing there. It | :44:37. | :44:39. | |
creates its own problem. Some people do errant DIY FastTrack, which is | :44:40. | :44:43. | |
basically queue jumping, if they know their flight is about to go. A | :44:44. | :44:47. | |
quick mention of Barcelona, that is a totally separate problem? It is | :44:48. | :44:50. | |
building up. Passport check is after the security screening. In | :44:51. | :44:54. | |
Barcelona, the people who work on the security checks are saying that | :44:55. | :44:58. | |
their workloads are way too long and they have to do six in our ships. | :44:59. | :45:01. | |
Starting yesterday and continuing indefinitely on Fridays, Sundays on | :45:02. | :45:05. | |
Mondays, they are saying they are going on strike for one hour at key | :45:06. | :45:08. | |
hours through the day. Yesterday there were almighty queues building | :45:09. | :45:13. | |
up. It took some people three hours to get through. Today, no problem. | :45:14. | :45:16. | |
Tomorrow, good luck everybody. Simon, thank you. | :45:17. | :45:20. | |
You're watching Breakfast from BBC News. | :45:21. | :45:26. | |
If you are going away, you might want to know what the weather is | :45:27. | :45:33. | |
like. Or you might be one of those people who goes away and hopes it is | :45:34. | :45:37. | |
reining back here. That is just mean. Is it going to be a nice day? | :45:38. | :45:45. | |
For some of us, a beautiful sunrise. This is a big are taken from | :45:46. | :45:51. | |
Manchester, not long ago. That is only half the story. As we saw a | :45:52. | :45:57. | |
second ago, some showers around. That is the story for the afternoon. | :45:58. | :46:02. | |
Sunny spells and showers, not overly warm today, but starting off at a | :46:03. | :46:07. | |
reasonable temperature. Not rising too much further. Showers around | :46:08. | :46:13. | |
across parts of England and Wales, and into the afternoon, drifting | :46:14. | :46:18. | |
east. Thunder and hail mixed in with those showers. Further north, sunny | :46:19. | :46:23. | |
spells. Into the afternoon, a fair bit of cloud in the sky. Some breaks | :46:24. | :46:29. | |
around. Some sunshine, but when the rain comes in, it could be heavy | :46:30. | :46:34. | |
with some thunder. Showers moving through northern Scotland, and | :46:35. | :46:37. | |
Northern Ireland as well. Parts of the south-west faring quite well, | :46:38. | :46:41. | |
largely dry and bright. Good spells of sunshine. Probably getting up to | :46:42. | :46:47. | |
21 degrees also in the south-eastern corner between those showers. A | :46:48. | :46:52. | |
shower or two at the World Championship athletics is afternoon. | :46:53. | :46:55. | |
Not necessarily at one o'clock, but the 10th of a shower or two. Dry | :46:56. | :47:01. | |
Rather than. Showers overnight tonight under this ridge of high | :47:02. | :47:05. | |
pressure. Skies clearing, but there is a weather system moving into the | :47:06. | :47:09. | |
west of the UK. Overnight, turning quite chilly. Temperatures in double | :47:10. | :47:16. | |
figures, in more rule spots, like rules Scotland, could be cold enough | :47:17. | :47:20. | |
for a touch of frost tomorrow morning. A bright start for central | :47:21. | :47:25. | |
and eastern areas. Hanging onto that whether in the south and east. Cloud | :47:26. | :47:30. | |
and rain moving through Northern Ireland, getting into central and | :47:31. | :47:33. | |
western parts of Scotland and western Wales. Going downhill, | :47:34. | :47:39. | |
hanging on to brighter weather in south-west Wales. For the community | :47:40. | :47:43. | |
Shield at Wembley, Arsenal taking on Chelsea. It looks like Ricky decent | :47:44. | :47:49. | |
day. Good spells of sunshine, temperatures 21- 22. | :47:50. | :47:53. | |
This week Spencer Kelly shines a light on whether it's possible | :47:54. | :47:57. | |
to capture the sun's energy while on the road - | :47:58. | :48:00. | |
They're ugly, huge and they ruin the landscape, | :48:01. | :48:22. | |
but we do kind of need them to get from A to B. | :48:23. | :48:37. | |
But sometimes a road can be more than just a road. | :48:38. | :48:40. | |
And that's the idea behind a French government backed initiative | :48:41. | :48:43. | |
using the massive space given over to the transport network | :48:44. | :48:45. | |
to also capture the Sun through solar roads. | :48:46. | :49:01. | |
I mean, look at this road, what's it doing right now, | :49:02. | :49:04. | |
And it's estimated that even busy roads can see the sky | :49:05. | :49:09. | |
But it's not all plain... Sunning. | :49:10. | :49:12. | |
The problem with putting photovoltaic cells into roads | :49:13. | :49:14. | |
is the slightest bit of pressure, the slightest bend, and... | :49:15. | :49:21. | |
So the cells are stuck onto slabs and covered with crushed glass | :49:22. | :49:24. | |
At the facility near Versailles, in France, these seven millimetre | :49:25. | :49:28. | |
thick panels are being tested for their strength and durability | :49:29. | :49:31. | |
so they can withstand heavy traffic as well as ensuring | :49:32. | :49:34. | |
We have the cell and on each face we added polymer to increase | :49:35. | :49:43. | |
the stiffness and the durability of the cells itself. | :49:44. | :49:46. | |
So do they bend or are they just resistant to bending? | :49:47. | :49:49. | |
Yes, of course they bend, but just a little bit. | :49:50. | :49:51. | |
Although the panels can be laid over existing roads, | :49:52. | :50:03. | |
this one-kilometre stretch in Normandy covering 2,800 square | :50:04. | :50:05. | |
That's an estimated 4-6 times the price of covering the area | :50:06. | :50:10. | |
Currently, yes, of course the cost is quite high. | :50:11. | :50:13. | |
The aim is to divide by three the current cost. | :50:14. | :50:16. | |
After concerning the interest it's really a political approach. | :50:17. | :50:26. | |
Critics have questions about the viability of panels | :50:27. | :50:28. | |
on busy roads and the efficiency of laying panels down flat | :50:29. | :50:31. | |
The angle or the tilt angle of the panels will also | :50:32. | :50:35. | |
If we have them lying on the floor, on the road, | :50:36. | :50:39. | |
then we are influencing the tilt angle. | :50:40. | :50:54. | |
One possible advantage of having the panels flat on the ground | :50:55. | :50:57. | |
is that in the future they could be used to charge electric vehicles | :50:58. | :51:00. | |
And charging vehicles as they move is another idea on the horizon. | :51:01. | :51:05. | |
Developed by Qualcomm Technologies, this 100-metre stretch | :51:06. | :51:07. | |
of dynamically charging road is also being trialled in Versailles. | :51:08. | :51:10. | |
I do like the idea that although the road networks have | :51:11. | :51:13. | |
obviously been a major source of the planet's pollution problems, | :51:14. | :51:16. | |
they could also be, in the future, one of the solutions | :51:17. | :51:19. | |
And with the UK Government phasing out diesel and petrol vehicles, | :51:20. | :51:28. | |
renewable transport solutions like this might just be the ticket. | :51:29. | :51:30. | |
Stationery induction charging works like wirelessly charged phones, | :51:31. | :51:33. | |
producing a magnetic field that's converted to DC power. | :51:34. | :51:35. | |
Though this technology has been with us for a while, dynamic roads | :51:36. | :51:38. | |
How accurately do you have to park this thing so | :51:39. | :51:42. | |
At the moment we're talking about an area the size | :51:43. | :52:02. | |
of about a dinner plate, as long as that's aligned on both | :52:03. | :52:05. | |
sides you should be able to send the charge through that. | :52:06. | :52:08. | |
You have a line of these on a road and you simply connect them all up | :52:09. | :52:12. | |
and that would effectively give you a charging road. | :52:13. | :52:15. | |
As long as the car was obviously aligned with that, | :52:16. | :52:18. | |
and the technology was all linked and synced up, the car | :52:19. | :52:21. | |
could actually charge while it's driving along using exactly the same | :52:22. | :52:24. | |
Critics though worry about the infrastructure cost | :52:25. | :52:34. | |
Others point to the rapid developments in electric vehicle | :52:35. | :52:37. | |
battery capacity that may remove the need for electric cars | :52:38. | :52:40. | |
But if solar roads can be made cheaply enough | :52:41. | :52:44. | |
and withstand heavy traffic, this could be one to watch | :52:45. | :52:47. | |
Hello and welcome to The Week in Tech. | :52:48. | :52:51. | |
It was the week that the script for an unseen episode of Game | :52:52. | :52:54. | |
of Thrones, as well as those from other HBO shows, was leaked | :52:55. | :52:57. | |
An new version of Bitcoin was mined for the first time as the crypto | :52:58. | :53:03. | |
And the US Navy's launched its first fighter jet powered | :53:04. | :53:07. | |
The high-tech, high speed, Hyperloop One has | :53:08. | :53:09. | |
A test that propelled this pod through a tube | :53:10. | :53:13. | |
in the Nevada desert at 192 mph, edging closer to its eventual aim | :53:14. | :53:16. | |
of one day transporting passengers at speeds of up to 650 mph. | :53:17. | :53:25. | |
Meanwhile a security researcher managed to hack an Amazon Echo, | :53:26. | :53:28. | |
making it possible to remotely stream audio from someone's device. | :53:29. | :53:31. | |
The attack could only work on pre-2017 versions though, | :53:32. | :53:33. | |
and physical access to the Echo is needed first. | :53:34. | :53:36. | |
And finally the team behind the hand-held spray | :53:37. | :53:38. | |
printer painting device, which we showed you a couple | :53:39. | :53:40. | |
of months ago, have developed a robotic version that made it | :53:41. | :53:43. | |
possible to paint this giant masterpiece on an abandoned power | :53:44. | :53:46. | |
station, using five different colours at once. | :53:47. | :53:48. | |
I'm Scott Helm, here to give you a 101 to Black Hat, | :53:49. | :54:19. | |
BSides and DEF CON, which all happen during one crazy week in Las Vegas. | :54:20. | :54:23. | |
This is a very, very popular course, we've got some of the latest stuff | :54:24. | :54:27. | |
that we've found in our own hacking that we do for clients | :54:28. | :54:30. | |
The good guys have got to learn it because the bad guys already do. | :54:31. | :54:38. | |
I've embedded some code into the page and then when you load | :54:39. | :54:42. | |
the page it puts that message up, that it's not supposed to do. | :54:43. | :54:45. | |
It was a nice introductory level course. | :54:46. | :54:47. | |
So obviously this could be used for harm and the flip side of this | :54:48. | :54:51. | |
is, if you were setting up to be a cybercriminal would you come | :54:52. | :54:54. | |
to a formal conference like this and register to do a training course | :54:55. | :54:58. | |
Or would you go and learn how to do this on the dark web somewhere else? | :54:59. | :55:03. | |
I don't think we would really expect to see criminals coming | :55:04. | :55:06. | |
So we are in the vendor hall right now. | :55:07. | :55:11. | |
This is where all the different companies have their stands, | :55:12. | :55:13. | |
This represents what they do inside your network, | :55:14. | :55:17. | |
in that an attacker now doesn't know where the real target | :55:18. | :55:20. | |
We're in the desert, drink plenty of water. | :55:21. | :55:46. | |
Get a goodie bag and fill it with swag. | :55:47. | :55:49. | |
So we've just checked in B-Sides, I have my bag, everyone that attends | :55:50. | :55:54. | |
the conference gets a little bag of goodies so we're just | :55:55. | :55:57. | |
Got a few stickers here, the little Hawaiian necklaces, | :55:58. | :56:00. | |
It's very corporate, it's very kind of official and formal. | :56:01. | :56:04. | |
This is like a much more relaxed setting, it's much more enjoyable. | :56:05. | :56:07. | |
The opening key note is taking place just behind me, | :56:08. | :56:10. | |
and we're going to go and take a look around the vendors around | :56:11. | :56:14. | |
So, the Wi-Fi network is here is monitored, | :56:15. | :56:23. | |
and the screen behind me shows you things that people | :56:24. | :56:26. | |
So we managed to just get the BBC Click logo and Rory | :56:27. | :56:30. | |
The whole idea is it's analysing the network, | :56:31. | :56:36. | |
and then carving out images real time, and displaying them up | :56:37. | :56:39. | |
So anything that anybody is looking at on the network, | :56:40. | :56:43. | |
I found some ex-colleagues of mine from England. | :56:44. | :56:50. | |
I'm going to the banking on insecurity nets, | :56:51. | :56:55. | |
Yes, so being members of the press at BSides, | :56:56. | :57:00. | |
we can't go into the underground track, which is no | :57:01. | :57:03. | |
Most people don't even use their real names in the schedule, | :57:04. | :57:06. | |
and unfortunately we're banned, we can't go in there. | :57:07. | :57:09. | |
It's a tech conference, it's a hacker conference. | :57:10. | :57:14. | |
People often think it might be less sociable, | :57:15. | :57:16. | |
but this is where most of us do our networking. | :57:17. | :57:18. | |
We're in the middle of filming and somebody has just hacked the PA | :57:19. | :57:22. | |
Effectively, this badge is like a tiny computer, | :57:23. | :57:37. | |
and I can make it do like really cool stuff. | :57:38. | :57:40. | |
Yeah, we have come to the chill out zone just to take a little break. | :57:41. | :57:52. | |
I bumped into an old work colleague and friend of mine, Andy. | :57:53. | :57:55. | |
He's a goon here, at DEF CON this year. | :57:56. | :57:58. | |
Most people probably won't know what being a goon is, so... | :57:59. | :58:01. | |
So being a goon is basically the enforcement of fun. | :58:02. | :58:07. | |
So we were walking the corridors earlier today, and we heard some | :58:08. | :58:10. | |
numbers being thrown around, in the region of 50-60,000 | :58:11. | :58:12. | |
attacks a day are launched against the DEF CON network, | :58:13. | :58:15. | |
It's what you would expect of a hacking conference's network. | :58:16. | :58:19. | |
There's no official challenge, but hackers going to hack. | :58:20. | :58:21. | |
Federal agents attend the Conference dressed in plain clothing. | :58:22. | :58:24. | |
It's easy for them to blend in, and there's a running competition | :58:25. | :58:28. | |
every year to try and spot and identify federal agents. | :58:29. | :58:31. | |
My guesses would be they're looking out for people they may | :58:32. | :58:34. | |
need to keep an eye on, and the other side of | :58:35. | :58:37. | |
So we were watching somebody get their first implant. | :58:38. | :58:40. | |
I'm kind of wondering, how much it will hurt. | :58:41. | :59:01. | |
I'm going to apply a little bit of pressure. | :59:02. | :59:07. | |
It was literally like something poking around inside my hand. | :59:08. | :59:09. | |
My front door lock at home, I'm going to replace | :59:10. | :59:12. | |
it with an NFC lock, and it will sense the chip in my | :59:13. | :59:16. | |
When you're at DEF CON, you just never know | :59:17. | :59:20. | |
what is going to happen next, it could be a complete surprise. | :59:21. | :59:28. | |
That's additive in Las Vegas, dealing with some of the darker | :59:29. | :59:31. | |
You will find more on privacy, security, and hacking on our website | :59:32. | :59:35. | |
and social media as part of BBC's cyber hacks season. | :59:36. | :59:38. | |
That is the short version of Click for this week. | :59:39. | :59:41. | |
Thank you for watching and we will see you soon. | :59:42. | :00:11. | |
Hello, this is Breakfast, with Roger Johnson and Naga | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
Marvellous Mo Farah wins his tenth straight | :00:15. | :00:17. | |
He is a superpower! Gold for Mo Farah! | :00:18. | :00:32. | |
He stormed his way to the 10,000 metre title, | :00:33. | :00:35. | |
much to the delight of the home crowd and his children. | :00:36. | :00:38. | |
The thousands of fans watching the action at the London stadium won't | :00:39. | :00:44. | |
just cheering for Mo Farah, a broad on Usain Bolt as he began his bid | :00:45. | :00:50. | |
for a 12th championship title. -- roared on. He is through to the 100 | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
metres semifinals later today. Good morning, it's Saturday | :00:54. | :01:07. | |
the 5th of August. Also ahead: A British computer | :01:08. | :01:09. | |
expert will spend the weekend in a US jail, after being accused | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
of creating software that steals Ireland's first openly gay | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
Prime Minister will attend a Pride event in Belfast later, | :01:16. | :01:28. | |
as he warns the "clock is ticking" We'll hear why Britain's oldest shop | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
worker is packing it Good morning. Some sunshine around | :01:32. | :01:45. | |
today and quite a lot of cloud in the sky, which will deliver some | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
showers. Some of them will be heavy, with the odd rumble of thunder. | :01:50. | :01:51. | |
Mo Farah has described last night's 10,000 metre final | :01:52. | :01:58. | |
at the World Athletics Championships as one of the toughest races | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
The 34-year-old, who is due to retire from the track at the end | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
of this season, has now won ten global titles in a row. | :02:06. | :02:13. | |
Earlier in the evening, Usain Bolt also began the defence | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
of his 100m title, as he competes professionally | :02:18. | :02:19. | |
Our sports news correspondent Natalie Pirks was at | :02:20. | :02:22. | |
But this win was arguably the greatest of them all. | :02:23. | :02:43. | |
His competitors went off hard, working together to grind | :02:44. | :02:45. | |
As Mo tried to whip the crowd into a frenzy, | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
Down the final straight, the nation and his wife | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
It was his fastest time in six years. | :02:54. | :02:59. | |
The training had all been worth it, to be able to celebrate | :03:00. | :03:07. | |
with the most important people in his life. | :03:08. | :03:09. | |
I got a bit emotional at the start, then I had to get in the zone, | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
and, yeah, it's just been, you know, amazing. | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
He's not the only one gearing up for goodbye. | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
Lapping up the London love, Usain Bolt has not been | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
lightning quick this season, but then he hasn't yet needed to be. | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
COMMENTATOR: Here he comes, and there he goes. | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
He is aiming for his 12th world title, and | :03:34. | :03:42. | |
They always show me so much love and I really appreciate it. | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
This track has witnessed yet another piece of Mo Farah history. | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
His 10th major global title, his most impressive yet. | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
This stadium was built to leave a legacy. | :03:57. | :03:58. | |
And here it is in the early morning light in east London, ahead of | :03:59. | :04:12. | |
another day of competition at the World Athletics Championships. Lots | :04:13. | :04:13. | |
to look forward to today. Just after 8am we'll | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
speak to Paula Radcliffe about her reaction to | :04:17. | :04:18. | |
the championships so far. Jo Pavey will join us as well. Lots | :04:19. | :04:27. | |
to look forward to on the track and coverage of course across the BBC | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
during the day to day. BBC Two during the day and BBC One this | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
evening. Prosecutors have told a court | :04:34. | :04:34. | |
in Las Vegas that a British computer expert has admitted creating | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
software that steals bank details. Marcus Hutchins, aged 23 | :04:38. | :04:39. | |
and from Devon, will Mr Hutchins was praised earlier this | :04:40. | :04:41. | |
year for helping to limit a global cyber attack that brought down | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
several NHS computer networks. From Las Vegas, our North America | :04:48. | :04:49. | |
correspondent James Cook reports. Marcus Hutchins appeared in a Las | :04:50. | :05:08. | |
Vegas courtroom. The prosecution said he admitted writing computer | :05:09. | :05:11. | |
code designed to steal banking details and also claimed there was | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
evidence that he discussed how to split the profits with an | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
accomplice. His lawyer says he denies all the charges against him. | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
How is he doing? He is holding up and in good spirits. The family I | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
think support and the friends support and his co-workers and the | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
community have been tremendously supportive for him. Indeed, many | :05:31. | :05:35. | |
fellow cyber security experts regard Marcus Hutchins as a hero. In an | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
attack which caused chaos for the NHS and spread to 150 countries | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
around the world. The FBI moved in at the airport as he was about to | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
fly home to the UK. He is due in court in Wisconsin on Tuesday. Until | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
then the judge here ordered his release on bail, subject to | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
conditions which include surrendering his passport and GPS | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
monitoring. Marcus Hutchins appeared in court in Las Vegas right at the | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
end of the working week. His lawyers had just a few minutes to scramble | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
together his bail money, but by the time they had done so the courts had | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
closed, which means we will have to spend the weekend in jail. | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
The United States has officially informed the United Nations that | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
it's withdrawing from the Paris Climate agreement. | :06:19. | :06:20. | |
In June, President Donald Trump drew international condemnation | :06:21. | :06:22. | |
when he announced the decision to leave the agreement. | :06:23. | :06:24. | |
It had been drawn up by nearly 200 nations to curb greenhouse gas | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
The State Department says the US will continue to participate | :06:29. | :06:36. | |
in climate change meetings until the withdrawal process | :06:37. | :06:38. | |
The Irish Prime Minister continues his first official visit to Northern | :06:39. | :06:50. | |
Ireland today. He will attend a private event a little later. -- | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
pride in bed. Yesterday he suggested the bilateral customs union could be | :06:56. | :07:00. | |
the best way to deal with Northern Ireland's order with a republic and | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
described Brexit as the challenge of this generation. | :07:05. | :07:05. | |
After record breaking temperatures across Europe this week, | :07:06. | :07:07. | |
scientists are warning that the number of people killed | :07:08. | :07:10. | |
by extreme weather conditions could increase 50-fold by the end | :07:11. | :07:12. | |
A study in the Lancet Planetary Health journal suggests that | :07:13. | :07:23. | |
heatwaves alone could account for 100,000 deaths a year. | :07:24. | :07:26. | |
Researchers in Italy say urgent action is needed to curb the effects | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
An Oxford University employee, who's been on the run on suspicion | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
of murder, has been arrested with his alleged accomplice. | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
Andrew Warren and Professor Wyndham Lathem of Northwestern University | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
are accused of stabbing a 26-year-old man to death | :07:41. | :07:42. | |
Both men were detained in Oakland in California. | :07:43. | :07:52. | |
People closely connected to the video sharing site YouTube | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
have told the BBC that the company's child protection measures | :07:56. | :07:58. | |
They say the site has a huge backlog of reports about potential grooming | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
They also claim members of the public who flag up | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
material are unlikely to hear back from the company. | :08:07. | :08:08. | |
YouTube, which is owned by Google, said it strictly prohibits content | :08:09. | :08:11. | |
BBC Trending's Mike Wendling reports. | :08:12. | :08:22. | |
YouTube is used by more than 1.5 billion people around the world | :08:23. | :08:29. | |
each month and it's a favourite of kids and teens. | :08:30. | :08:32. | |
One of the measures keeping them safe is | :08:33. | :08:34. | |
a group of volunteers called Trusted Flaggers. | :08:35. | :08:36. | |
They scour the site looking for material which breaks | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
YouTube's rules, but bloggers from inside the programme had told | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
the BBC the site has a huge backlog of complaints. | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
The complaints are not about child pornography, | :08:48. | :08:54. | |
but rather sexually explicit comments left on videos | :08:55. | :08:56. | |
One volunteer told the BBC he made more than 9,000 reports over | :08:57. | :09:04. | |
eight months ago and none of them have been protests. | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
They also claim that members of the public who report material | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
YouTube, owned by Google, said in a statement that it | :09:12. | :09:17. | |
strictly prohibits content which sexually exploits miners. | :09:18. | :09:27. | |
The whistleblowers say that YouTube needs to devote | :09:28. | :09:29. | |
increased money and staff to child safety. | :09:30. | :09:31. | |
Millions of rail passengers are facing up to three weeks | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
of disruption as work to update the UK's busiest train station gets | :09:35. | :09:37. | |
An ?800 million revamp will close ten platforms | :09:38. | :09:40. | |
at London Waterloo station to prepare for longer trains | :09:41. | :09:43. | |
and create extra space for passengers. | :09:44. | :09:44. | |
The work is due to be finished at the end of August. | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
Happily driving along a road, minding our own business, | :09:50. | :09:53. | |
when a cat or even a fox darts out in front of the car. | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
But imagine having to swerve to avoid this. | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
This is the scene that confronted motorists in the Indian state | :10:02. | :10:14. | |
of Assam, when a rhinoceros strayed onto a road and started | :10:15. | :10:17. | |
Some fairly nifty reversing going on by that vehicle. | :10:18. | :10:29. | |
The region is home to 70% of the world's greater one-horned | :10:30. | :10:32. | |
Luckily, for both rhino and motorists, this one eventually | :10:33. | :10:35. | |
It's a rhino. Yes, I know it's a rhino. Well | :10:36. | :10:44. | |
spotted! The Irish Prime Minister will take | :10:45. | :10:45. | |
part in Belfast city's He's has already made | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
waves on his first visit to Northern Ireland with his | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
comments on Brexit yesterday. Gay marriage is still not | :10:53. | :10:54. | |
legal in Northern Ireland and the relatively new taoiseach | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
will be making a political point Aisling McVeigh explains more | :10:58. | :10:59. | |
about his background. At 30 years old, Leo Varadkar is | :11:00. | :11:13. | |
Island's youngest ever Prime Minister. That's not the only thing | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
about him. He is half Indian and openly gay, the embodiment of the | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
liberalisation of a country that was once regarded the most socially | :11:22. | :11:24. | |
conservative in Europe. He came to power in June with the biggest party | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
in the country's ruling coalition. Just ten years after he was first | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
elected to the Irish parliament. Before that he trained as a doctor, | :11:34. | :11:37. | |
at his medical career gave way to his political one. He has previously | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
mean -- been a Minister for Transport, tourism and sport and | :11:43. | :11:45. | |
then health minister and more recently in the welfare system -- | :11:46. | :11:49. | |
ran the welfare system. Now he faces what many have described as the | :11:50. | :11:53. | |
biggest challenge the Irish state has had, the departure of the United | :11:54. | :11:55. | |
Kingdom from the EU. We're joined now by Dr Kathryn | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
Simpson, a politics lecturer at Manchester Metropolitan | :12:00. | :12:01. | |
University. She is in the studio. Good morning. | :12:02. | :12:09. | |
Thank you very much for coming in. There are number of different points | :12:10. | :12:12. | |
to pick up on. Let's talk about Brexit first of all. Is his | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
intervention likely to make any difference to the way that | :12:18. | :12:20. | |
Westminster is handling the Brexit talks? That's a good point. Perhaps. | :12:21. | :12:26. | |
I think what we've seen from the speech yesterday in Belfast is very | :12:27. | :12:30. | |
much the kind of frustration of the Irish government about the lack of | :12:31. | :12:33. | |
kind of real engagement by the British government over the issue of | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
the board. He very much point into the European Council meeting which | :12:39. | :12:41. | |
will take place in October and pointed to the key issues they will | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
talk about that, which is citizens rights, about what the financial | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
settlement will be between the UK and EU when we leave. But also the | :12:51. | :12:55. | |
issue of the border in Northern Ireland. He really has tried to come | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
out and say, listen, if you haven't got a plan we do. He then proposed | :13:00. | :13:05. | |
alternatives, so the idea of having a bilateral customs union agreement, | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
which would it favourable for the border and trade between the | :13:10. | :13:12. | |
Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. Sorry, just explain | :13:13. | :13:17. | |
bilateral. There's been talk about a bilateral customs arrangements | :13:18. | :13:20. | |
between the UK and Europe. What does he mean was yellow what we've seen | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
so far by the UK government is we are leaving the customs union and | :13:26. | :13:29. | |
the single market. That's basically what the government is saying the | :13:30. | :13:33. | |
people voted on last year. They are saying we could have a customs union | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
that the UK would be specific with, but just with the EU. One already | :13:38. | :13:43. | |
exists between Turkey and the EU. Turkey is a non-EU member state. He | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
points to that as a potential model for the UK to have. Why should we | :13:48. | :13:55. | |
care about him being openly gay and the -- when in context of what he's | :13:56. | :14:01. | |
talking about regarding Northern Ireland? Again, what's important is | :14:02. | :14:12. | |
he is the first openly gay Member of Parliament and it has been a | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
contentious issue over the last few years. The last vote taken in | :14:17. | :14:19. | |
Northern Ireland was narrowly beaten by one vote to 53. This is very much | :14:20. | :14:28. | |
a pertinent issue in northern Irish politics, so we have no executive at | :14:29. | :14:32. | |
the moment and the key issues on the table for that is the Irish language | :14:33. | :14:36. | |
act and the legalisation of same-sex marriage. He is attending an event | :14:37. | :14:42. | |
at Pride today. He is attending the march but going to a festival | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
earlier in the day. The politicians in Northern Ireland have accused him | :14:47. | :14:49. | |
of interfering with their politics. They've called it megaphone | :14:50. | :14:54. | |
diplomacy. I think in particular the DUP will be very miffed and a bit | :14:55. | :14:59. | |
kind of... Will see this as unwelcome that he is putting front | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
and centre that he has said it isn't a question of if but when same-sex | :15:04. | :15:12. | |
marriage will be legalised. They have met separately prior to this | :15:13. | :15:16. | |
meeting and he said that it wasn't a meeting of minds, which is a polite | :15:17. | :15:20. | |
way of saying they very much don't agree. But northern Irish politics | :15:21. | :15:26. | |
and the DUP are saying, you are the key shock of Northern Ireland, you | :15:27. | :15:29. | |
should stay out of politics of Northern Ireland. But that's not how | :15:30. | :15:33. | |
it works and he is trying to campaign for this. It's not a | :15:34. | :15:37. | |
religious line either. He is saying it's not a Catholic or issue, this | :15:38. | :15:42. | |
is for the general civil rights and civil rights issues in Northern | :15:43. | :15:50. | |
Ireland. How have his early days in office been seen? He is young, many | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
people would say vibrant and dynamic. | :15:55. | :16:02. | |
It is very welcome. He does not come from a long-standing political | :16:03. | :16:12. | |
dynasty, and while the international media have very much focused on his | :16:13. | :16:16. | |
sexual orientation, back in the Republic of Ireland, the emphasis | :16:17. | :16:21. | |
has been on his economic policy. While he has been socially left in | :16:22. | :16:27. | |
terms of policy, economically, he is very conservative. Not much feeds | :16:28. | :16:34. | |
into the agenda of the political party. He has been a breath of fresh | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
air for the Republic of Ireland. Thank you very much indeed. | :16:40. | :16:45. | |
Later on Breakfast we'll hear from the former Northern Ireland | :16:46. | :16:48. | |
secretary, Lord Hain, who says the Irish prime minister's | :16:49. | :16:51. | |
Here's Jay with a look at this morning's weather. | :16:52. | :17:00. | |
A beautiful sunrise somewhere? Yes, beautiful in East Yorkshire. A | :17:01. | :17:11. | |
lovely start here, but that is not the full story. In Bristol, cloudy | :17:12. | :17:19. | |
skies. Early showers dotted around. A mixture of sunny spells and | :17:20. | :17:24. | |
showers through the weekend. With the north-westerly breeze, it is | :17:25. | :17:30. | |
going to be very warm. Showers early on across Wales, heading towards | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
east Anglia and the south-east. A few rumbles of thunder. Further | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
north, sunny spells and a scattering of showers. Some rain at times | :17:40. | :17:42. | |
across Scotland and Northern Ireland. Temperatures only around | :17:43. | :17:53. | |
16- 17 degrees. Dry and bright spells, rain and sunshine as well in | :17:54. | :17:59. | |
Wales. The south-west of England, a pretty reasonable afternoon. Showers | :18:00. | :18:05. | |
moving through on the breeze towards the London area, 20- 21 degrees. A | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
shower or two at the world champion athletics, overall the day will be | :18:11. | :18:15. | |
much more drive and wet. Showers that we do see tend to fade away | :18:16. | :18:18. | |
overnight as high pressure builds them. Skies clearing for many, | :18:19. | :18:23. | |
except towards the west. Where we do have clearer skies, quite chilly, | :18:24. | :18:31. | |
especially in rural spots. In rural Scotland, single figures. A touch of | :18:32. | :18:35. | |
frost on the grass first thing. Fresh but bright to start the day | :18:36. | :18:38. | |
for many central and eastern parts of the UK. You west, areas of wind | :18:39. | :18:45. | |
and cloud. Pushing into western Scotland, north-west of England and | :18:46. | :18:48. | |
Wales. The further south and east you go, staying dry and bright. | :18:49. | :18:55. | |
Sunshine, a touch warmer than today. Only 15 degrees also in the west of | :18:56. | :18:59. | |
Scotland. For the community Shield, Arsenal taking on Chelsea at | :19:00. | :19:04. | |
Wembley. Looking like a pretty decent day for it. Dry, bright and | :19:05. | :19:10. | |
pretty warm as well. That's it for me. | :19:11. | :19:16. | |
At 93, Reg Buttress from South Wales is thought to be Britain's | :19:17. | :19:19. | |
Now, after more than 30 years in his current job, | :19:20. | :19:28. | |
he's decided it's finally time to retire. | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
This isn't the first time he's hung up his apron, though. | :19:33. | :19:35. | |
He first stopped working at the age of 65, but lasted just six weeks | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
Our correspondent Tomos Morgan went to meet him ahead of his final | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
This is Reg Buttress. Not your average 93-year-old. But his | :19:45. | :20:00. | |
customers and colleagues love him. He retired ones that 65, just a few | :20:01. | :20:05. | |
years into his time at Sainsbury's. His retirement only lasted a few | :20:06. | :20:11. | |
weeks. I look forward to coming here to meet people. I look forward to | :20:12. | :20:16. | |
it. After working at the supermarket for over 35 years, next month, when | :20:17. | :20:24. | |
he turns 94, why will he finally pack it all in? I need to do some | :20:25. | :20:30. | |
jobs in the summer. It just isn't fair to the family. He has had five | :20:31. | :20:37. | |
different careers during his life, starting like many others in the | :20:38. | :20:43. | |
mines. After working for 80 years, his work ethic and commitment to the | :20:44. | :20:49. | |
job is still as strong as ever. He loves it, he loves being here. He | :20:50. | :20:53. | |
loves his job. I don't know what I'll do when he's not doing it. | :20:54. | :21:00. | |
Believed to be the oldest shopworker in Britain, Reg is 75 years older | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
than the youngest worker in this store. It is clear his enthusiasm | :21:04. | :21:10. | |
rubs off on shoppers and colleagues alike. Here's a lovely man. | :21:11. | :21:18. | |
Beautiful. A beautiful soul. Yes, everyone likes to meet and greet | :21:19. | :21:26. | |
him, always stop for a chat. I will miss them, the people, the | :21:27. | :21:34. | |
customers. Many have known Reg since they were children, and they will be | :21:35. | :21:38. | |
just as sad as he will be next month when he finally calls it a day. | :21:39. | :21:44. | |
Wishing him a very happy retirement. So after a night of thrilling | :21:45. | :21:46. | |
action on the track, British Athletics already seem | :21:47. | :21:49. | |
to have made their mark in this But what do these kinds | :21:50. | :21:52. | |
of performances do to help boost Jess is in the London Stadium for us | :21:53. | :21:58. | |
this morning and can tell us more. Yes, we're saying goodbye | :21:59. | :22:04. | |
to Mo on the track - But how can their careers help | :22:05. | :22:07. | |
inspire the next generation? I went to meet up with some children | :22:08. | :22:15. | |
on an estate in London giving athletics a go for | :22:16. | :22:19. | |
the very first time. Sprinting for the summer. Not your | :22:20. | :22:41. | |
typical athletics venue, but for these young people, this is our | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
stage and it is right on their doorstep. I am in west London, these | :22:46. | :22:48. | |
young people have seen their start on the screen and now they are going | :22:49. | :22:59. | |
to try the sport out for themselves. Who better to give some tips on any | :23:00. | :23:05. | |
European gold-medallist? You can make new friends from the estate | :23:06. | :23:10. | |
that you probably wouldn't have met normally, day today. It encourages | :23:11. | :23:13. | |
them to communicate with each other, make it and enjoyable. Of activities | :23:14. | :23:19. | |
have we got going on? I've seen some javelin throwing and they are pretty | :23:20. | :23:24. | |
good at it. We have got a relay is going on and it out the moment? We | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
had the hurdle relay earlier, which I took part in. Most of them beat | :23:29. | :23:35. | |
you? They did. They are very quick. We have got a bastion and we are | :23:36. | :23:39. | |
teaching them how to do the relay properly. The teenagers have the key | :23:40. | :23:47. | |
skills to do it well. These championships will see some of the | :23:48. | :23:51. | |
biggest stars in athletics on the track. There are none bigger than Mo | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
Farah and Usain Bolt. I think it is really important. They might watch | :23:57. | :24:01. | |
the Olympics or they might watch Mo Farah or Usain Bolt, sometimes there | :24:02. | :24:06. | |
is not somewhere for them to go, they will forget about it until the | :24:07. | :24:10. | |
next world temperatures. We want to try and capture the spirit at the | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
right time. We need projects like this to bring people together. It | :24:15. | :24:22. | |
might be that they do want to take part in athletics, but more than | :24:23. | :24:28. | |
that, it is just creating somewhere locally that they can take part in. | :24:29. | :24:32. | |
Why do you keep coming back to these sessions? They are really fun. I | :24:33. | :24:37. | |
like running and athletics because it gets me pumped, if I'm sad it | :24:38. | :24:42. | |
puts me back up again. They have tried athletics for themselves, now | :24:43. | :24:47. | |
they will be able to watch the professionals in action live at the | :24:48. | :24:50. | |
World Championships through this project. Who knows how many might | :24:51. | :24:59. | |
want to emulate their heroes? It was a real buzz following the London | :25:00. | :25:03. | |
Olympics, and it is great to see so many young people inspired to try | :25:04. | :25:07. | |
new sport. Many of the young children in that film will be able | :25:08. | :25:11. | |
to come to the stadium to watch the biggest stars in athletics compete | :25:12. | :25:14. | |
during these World Championships. If they are lucky enough to have a | :25:15. | :25:19. | |
ticket for today, they are in for a real treat. Usain Bolt is back on | :25:20. | :25:25. | |
the track, as is Laura Niua. Also, Katarina at Johnson Thompson gets | :25:26. | :25:31. | |
under way. A lot to look forward to. Indeed. | :25:32. | :25:35. | |
And still to come on Breakfast, she's held the overall women's | :25:36. | :25:38. | |
marathon world record since 2003 and is one of Britain's greatest | :25:39. | :25:40. | |
Paula Radcliffe joins us in just over half an hour for a look ahead | :25:41. | :25:45. | |
at what else we can expect from the World Championships. | :25:46. | :25:51. | |
We all know that pets are priceless, but you might agree that there's | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
something really quite special about this feline friend. | :25:56. | :26:05. | |
Eight year old rescue cat, Genie, has been named National Cat | :26:06. | :26:08. | |
of the Year after supporting her young owner, Evie, | :26:09. | :26:10. | |
Genie is normally an outdoor cat. She leaves this she wants to, and | :26:11. | :26:22. | |
will tell you if she wants to go out. That was until her 12-year-old | :26:23. | :26:27. | |
owner, Evie, was diagnosed with bone cancer. Then she changed. When I was | :26:28. | :26:33. | |
diagnosed, she was pulling my legs and would sit at my feet, she would | :26:34. | :26:37. | |
gently mass at my legs. That was just unheard of. Genie is doing her | :26:38. | :26:47. | |
claw thingy on me. It means that she likes me. I think she did, because | :26:48. | :26:54. | |
she was coming around this leg in particular, which is the one that | :26:55. | :27:01. | |
the cancer was in. Oh, you know something's wrong with that leg, | :27:02. | :27:06. | |
don't you? And this is the story that has just won are a national cat | :27:07. | :27:12. | |
award. As well as cat of the year, she won outstanding rescue pet. It | :27:13. | :27:16. | |
was really good, we had photos taken. It was interviewed after | :27:17. | :27:21. | |
interview after photo after interview. It was ace. I guess the | :27:22. | :27:27. | |
judges saw what I see in Genie, an amazing cat. Since the diagnosis, | :27:28. | :27:33. | |
she has really been a house cat, sitting at Evie's feet, going around | :27:34. | :27:39. | |
her legs. Helping around the house, following her, even going to the | :27:40. | :27:43. | |
toilet and going upstairs. It was quite a change in personality. I | :27:44. | :27:47. | |
think she made a massive difference. I do without her I would have a lot | :27:48. | :27:51. | |
more dark days, she just gave me that Wings of Hope that I needed to | :27:52. | :27:56. | |
get through this. Evie is now finished her course of chemotherapy | :27:57. | :27:59. | |
and is being monitored by the hospital. Genie continues to keep a | :28:00. | :28:02. | |
close eye on her as well. What a sweetheart. We wish Evie all | :28:03. | :28:09. | |
the best. Headlines coming up soon. Hello, this is Breakfast | :28:10. | :29:26. | |
with Naga Munchetty and Roger Coming up before 8am, | :29:27. | :29:29. | |
we'll have the weather with Jay. But first, a summary of this | :29:30. | :29:34. | |
morning's main news. Mo Farah has been celebrating his | :29:35. | :29:38. | |
win in last night's 10,000 metres at the World Championships, | :29:39. | :29:41. | |
describing it as one of the toughest The 34-year-old, who is due | :29:42. | :29:44. | |
to retire from the track at the end of this season, has now won ten | :29:45. | :29:49. | |
global titles in a row. Earlier in the evening, | :29:50. | :29:55. | |
Usain Bolt also began the defence of his 100 metre title, | :29:56. | :29:57. | |
as he competes for the last time. Prosecutors have told a court | :29:58. | :30:04. | |
in Las Vegas that a British computer expert has admitted creating | :30:05. | :30:07. | |
software that steals bank details. Marcus Hutchins, aged 23 | :30:08. | :30:10. | |

Varadkar continues his first official visit to | :30:24. | :30:31. | |
Northern Ireland today. The openly gay Taoiseach will attend | :30:32. | :30:32. | |
a Pride event in Belfast later. Yesterday he focused on Brexit, | :30:33. | :30:36. | |
suggesting that a bilateral customs union could be the best way | :30:37. | :30:39. | |
for the UK to deal with the issue of Northern Ireland's | :30:40. | :30:43. | |
border with the Republic, describing Brexit as "the challenge | :30:44. | :30:45. | |
of this generation". The United States has officially | :30:46. | :30:53. | |
informed the United Nations that it's withdrawing from | :30:54. | :30:55. | |
the Paris Climate agreement. In June, President Donald Trump drew | :30:56. | :30:58. | |
international condemnation when he announced the decision | :30:59. | :31:00. | |
to leave the agreement. It had been drawn up by nearly 200 | :31:01. | :31:03. | |
nations to curb greenhouse gas The State Department says the US | :31:04. | :31:06. | |
will continue to participate in climate change meetings | :31:07. | :31:11. | |

across Europe this week, scientists are warning | :31:40. | :31:41. | |
that the number of people killed by extreme weather conditions | :31:42. | :31:43. | |
could increase 50-fold by the end A study in the Lancet Planetary | :31:44. | :31:46. | |
Health journal suggests that heatwaves alone could account | :31:47. | :31:54. | |
for 100,000 deaths a year. Researchers in Italy say urgent | :31:55. | :31:57. | |
action is needed to curb the effects People closely connected | :31:58. | :32:00. | |
to the video sharing site YouTube have told the BBC that the company's | :32:01. | :32:04. | |

said it strictly prohibits content Millions of rail passengers | :32:18. | :32:20. | |
are facing up to three weeks of disruption as work to update | :32:21. | :32:31. | |
the UK's busiest train station gets An ?800 million revamp | :32:32. | :32:34. | |
will close ten platforms at London Waterloo station | :32:35. | :32:37. | |
to prepare for longer trains and create extra | :32:38. | :32:40. | |
space for passengers. The work is due to be finished | :32:41. | :32:41. | |
at the end of August. A Staffordshire butcher says he has | :32:42. | :32:50. | |
made a friend for life after rescuing a stray | :32:51. | :32:53. | |
lamb with a broken leg. Sean Landy found Lily the lamb | :32:54. | :32:59. | |
shivering in a hedge near his farm Barely a week old, she's now moved | :33:00. | :33:03. | |
in with the sheepdogs Mr Landy's confirmed that Lily | :33:04. | :33:07. | |
"definitely isn't going to end up She is now officially part of the | :33:08. | :33:24. | |
family. And she will be growing much bigger | :33:25. | :33:26. | |
before long! Those are the main | :33:27. | :33:27. | |
stories this morning. It was thrilling and nailbiting last | :33:28. | :33:36. | |
night, watching Mo Farah. He had a couple of stumbles and | :33:37. | :33:42. | |
bumps and then it was like how hard can we push? Let's talk to Jess | :33:43. | :33:47. | |
about it. You are at the London stadium today. The atmosphere of | :33:48. | :33:52. | |
yesterday was electric. Who knows what it will be like today? What a | :33:53. | :33:57. | |
night it was. I haven't had much sleep. | :33:58. | :34:00. | |
Another phenomenal performance from Mo Farah. I'm standing by the very | :34:01. | :34:09. | |
podium where Mo Farah himself stood to receive that 10,000 metres gold | :34:10. | :34:14. | |
medal. He stood here and faced the crowd as they cheered his name as he | :34:15. | :34:17. | |
received his medal. Tens of thousands in the stadium. The noise | :34:18. | :34:23. | |
was deafening, the atmosphere was absolutely amazing. Let me remind | :34:24. | :34:27. | |
you what he did to win that old medal. It was a thrilling race as | :34:28. | :34:32. | |
you say. It was his third World Championship gold medal. A tough | :34:33. | :34:39. | |
race. He had offered a determined challenge from his rivals and he | :34:40. | :34:42. | |
survived a couple of stumbles, the blistering final lap, and then we | :34:43. | :34:49. | |
won it with his trademark sprint to the line. | :34:50. | :34:52. | |
You gave us a scare going around the bend, | :34:53. | :34:55. | |
tripped twice and stepping out of your lane. | :34:56. | :34:59. | |
A couple of bruises, but I'm all right. | :35:00. | :35:06. | |
You know what it is like to double up, you have four days | :35:07. | :35:10. | |
You have to go through a heat for that one. | :35:11. | :35:14. | |
How do you do that now, block this out or enjoy it | :35:15. | :35:17. | |
It is a moment that is done now, I have to get back to the basics. | :35:18. | :35:24. | |
That's what it takes if I want to come back | :35:25. | :35:36. | |
for the five k's and I just have to take care of my body. | :35:37. | :35:40. | |
Reece Prescod ran a personal best to reach the semi-finals | :35:41. | :35:43. | |
I'm not fond of these blocks. These are the worst I've ever experienced. | :35:44. | :35:56. | |
I have to get this together, I have to get the star together. I can't | :35:57. | :36:00. | |
keep doing this. Can you explain what it is about the blocks in | :36:01. | :36:05. | |
particular? It is shaky. When I did my warmup and pushed back it fell | :36:06. | :36:09. | |
back. But I'm used to it. It's not as firm as I am used to. | :36:10. | :36:14. | |
Reece Prescod ran a personal best to reach the semi-finals | :36:15. | :36:16. | |
In fact all three British sprinters made it through, | :36:17. | :36:23. | |
so we'll see Prescod, James Desaolu and CJ Ujah | :36:24. | :36:26. | |
Also in action will be Laura Muir, who was inspired to take her | :36:27. | :36:31. | |
athletics career to the next level when she watched London | :36:32. | :36:34. | |
She goes in the 1,500 metres semi-finals, along with Jess Judd, | :36:35. | :36:39. | |
Now, let's look at the rest of the sport. | :36:40. | :36:55. | |
It's delicately balanced between England and South Africa | :36:56. | :37:00. | |
on the Fourth and Final Test against South Africa | :37:01. | :37:03. | |
England captain Joe Root made a half-century for his 10th Test | :37:04. | :37:06. | |
match in a row and Ben Stokes hit 58, but he was out just | :37:07. | :37:10. | |
England will resume later this morning on 260 for six. | :37:11. | :37:15. | |
Well, you always want 400 in the first innings | :37:16. | :37:18. | |
I think having lost Ben just at the close, if we can get 350 | :37:19. | :37:23. | |
350 plus, definitely, you always want to try | :37:24. | :37:27. | |
Maybe that last wicket might just knock a few off it. | :37:28. | :37:37. | |
Paris St-Germain fans will have to wait a little longer before | :37:38. | :37:40. | |
they see World Record signing Neymar in action. | :37:41. | :37:43. | |
The world's most expensive player will miss his side's | :37:44. | :37:45. | |
first match of the season today after his documents failed to be | :37:46. | :37:48. | |
The Brazilian forward will, though, be presented to supporters before | :37:49. | :37:52. | |
And the English domestic football season is already under way. | :37:53. | :38:01. | |
Sunderland began life back in the Championship with a 1-1 | :38:02. | :38:03. | |
After Bradley Johnson put Derby ahead, | :38:04. | :38:07. | |
Lewis Grabban equalised from the penalty spot. | :38:08. | :38:09. | |
Elsewhere, Nott'm Forest beat Millwall 1-0. | :38:10. | :38:14. | |
The Scottish Premiership season also starts today, | :38:15. | :38:16. | |
champions Celtic play Hearts in the lunchtime kick off. | :38:17. | :38:29. | |
You can see behind the day are setting up the high jump. People | :38:30. | :38:35. | |
earlier were mowing the grass, people in the stands were making | :38:36. | :38:40. | |
sure the seats were clean and the idols were well swept. It all gets | :38:41. | :38:44. | |
under way about 10am on the BBC. I can't wait. Have you got any | :38:45. | :38:48. | |
indication... You were talking about it being wet. Have you any | :38:49. | :38:53. | |
indications about how the athletes perhaps view that? If there will be | :38:54. | :38:58. | |
any extra special preparations to try things off? | :38:59. | :39:02. | |
I am no weather lady but I can tell you now it isn't raining. The sun is | :39:03. | :39:07. | |
starting to pick out just beneath the clouds. But in terms of the rain | :39:08. | :39:13. | |
coming down while the athletes are competing, it isn't ideal, | :39:14. | :39:16. | |
especially when you consider that Katarina Johnson-Thompson will be | :39:17. | :39:19. | |
running in the hurdles at about 10am and it makes the conditions a lot | :39:20. | :39:23. | |
more treacherous for her and slippery. I am sure she will have to | :39:24. | :39:27. | |
prepare more thoroughly to make sure she gets over it cleanly because she | :39:28. | :39:31. | |
wants to lay down a fast time in that first event. | :39:32. | :39:35. | |
Indeed. Thanks very much. Interestingly, it will be a really | :39:36. | :39:40. | |
busy day today at the World Athletics Championships. 18 events | :39:41. | :39:41. | |
going on. Here's a quick look ahead | :39:42. | :39:43. | |
to some of the moments Katarina Johnson-Thompson has long | :39:44. | :39:46. | |
been tipped as the successor She is now living and training | :39:47. | :39:50. | |
in France, but can she win her first senior heptathlon | :39:51. | :39:56. | |
medal on home soil? Sophie Hitchon became the first | :39:57. | :40:00. | |
female British Olympic hammer medallist in Brazil last summer, | :40:01. | :40:05. | |
with a last round throw of 74.54 Will the athlete be able to put our | :40:06. | :40:12. | |
competitors in a spin Usain Bolt will compete | :40:13. | :40:22. | |
in his last ever He qualified first in his heat | :40:23. | :40:26. | |
in a performance which he said was far from his best, | :40:27. | :40:30. | |
blaming the starting blocks. Can he recovered to deliver | :40:31. | :40:32. | |
the showstopping performance There is coverage | :40:33. | :40:34. | |
throughout the day on BBC Two from 9:30am and on | :40:35. | :40:45. | |
BBC One from 6:30pm. If you are going abroad this summer, | :40:46. | :40:48. | |
will you be able to ask for the bill, order a drink or even | :40:49. | :40:52. | |
say hello in the local language? New figures show fewer young people | :40:53. | :40:56. | |
are learning French and German and applications to study European | :40:57. | :40:59. | |
language degrees have fallen We asked people in Salford how | :41:00. | :41:01. | |
important it is to learn another language in the age | :41:02. | :41:07. | |
of Google translate? I lived in France for a few years. I | :41:08. | :41:36. | |
understand Spanish people. I think it is really important. I've learnt | :41:37. | :41:42. | |
French in the past, and I haven't had to use it very often, but I | :41:43. | :41:47. | |
think learning languages is a good idea for everybody. Only if you are | :41:48. | :41:51. | |
going to use it. If you want going to use it it is particularly an | :41:52. | :41:59. | |
academic exercise. We speak Mandarin, Thai and Hindi because we | :42:00. | :42:03. | |
have lived in those places but otherwise they aren't useful. When I | :42:04. | :42:08. | |
was young we didn't have the opportunity to learn languages. When | :42:09. | :42:17. | |
I look back now I think all kids should have that. You should have | :42:18. | :42:18. | |
it, but do we have that? We're joined now by | :42:19. | :42:24. | |
Kirsty Heimerl-Moggan. How many languages do you speak? | :42:25. | :42:36. | |
Three, and passive Italian as well. How worried are you, seeing this | :42:37. | :42:41. | |
fall in the number of people taking up languages? As a linguist it | :42:42. | :42:46. | |
always worries as if people aren't learning languages because it | :42:47. | :42:49. | |
broadens your horizons immensely. But having said that we have a lot | :42:50. | :42:54. | |
of students coming from abroad, so that number isn't actually falling | :42:55. | :42:57. | |
because they are still learning languages and they want to come to | :42:58. | :43:01. | |
the UK to practise their English. That's obvious when people come from | :43:02. | :43:04. | |
abroad, of course we want to pick up the language. But why do you think | :43:05. | :43:08. | |
here, even though we heard from those people, it is important? You | :43:09. | :43:11. | |
won't hear someone say, they need to have a second language -- there's no | :43:12. | :43:16. | |
need to have a second language in this global economy. I think it is | :43:17. | :43:20. | |
difficult. To give the example of my own family, a husband is trying to | :43:21. | :43:25. | |
speak German to speak to the family and as soon as they hear his accent | :43:26. | :43:29. | |
he gets spoken to in English. A lot of people speak good English so it | :43:30. | :43:33. | |
is hard for people to go abroad and get to practise their languages. It | :43:34. | :43:36. | |
is always embarrassing if you ring up to make a reservation, I did that | :43:37. | :43:41. | |
in France where I tried to make a reservation and they replied to me | :43:42. | :43:45. | |
in English. Is it as simple as the fact that because everybody speaks | :43:46. | :43:48. | |
English around the world we are just lazy? No, I don't think the lazy | :43:49. | :43:53. | |
argument works. We don't start learning early enough. I learnt to | :43:54. | :43:58. | |
languages from birth and that's the easiest time to learn it playfully. | :43:59. | :44:07. | |
But then you have that advantage. Yes. If there was more of that I | :44:08. | :44:11. | |
think it would be easier for English people to learn other languages. But | :44:12. | :44:17. | |
we can't all marry a European, so we need to access that at a younger | :44:18. | :44:24. | |
age? Yes, and there are bilingual kindergartens that are really | :44:25. | :44:27. | |
finding their footing more and more and even at junior school level it | :44:28. | :44:31. | |
is easier. It is a much harder when you start learning later in life. | :44:32. | :44:35. | |
What age is the ideal age to learn? From birth? It costs money, doesn't | :44:36. | :44:41. | |
it? To have bilingual kindergartens or grow to a school where there's | :44:42. | :44:45. | |
enough staff who are equipped to teach a five or six-year-old | :44:46. | :44:48. | |
languages when the other pressures of the curriculum are in place? | :44:49. | :44:53. | |
While it is still unique, yes. If it becomes more mainstream, we are | :44:54. | :44:57. | |
lucky in Germany as it is mainstream to have bilingual kindergartens, | :44:58. | :45:04. | |
that's helpful. What can parents do? If they are concerned or thinking | :45:05. | :45:07. | |
they want to give their child the best possible start? If this is the | :45:08. | :45:11. | |
best possible start. And if they aren't fluent in another language. | :45:12. | :45:21. | |
At home, there are lots of brilliant apps that you can use. You can go | :45:22. | :45:29. | |
travelling around the country, learning how to say simple phrases | :45:30. | :45:36. | |
and then travelling, parents have found that that really works with | :45:37. | :45:41. | |
children. If everybody else speaks English, why should we care? My | :45:42. | :45:47. | |
students to at least two languages, if not more. The jobs they go into | :45:48. | :45:53. | |
later in life are very multinational, they can move into | :45:54. | :46:01. | |
jobs abroad, which then means they can move into higher level jobs at | :46:02. | :46:02. | |
home. Here's Jay with a look | :46:03. | :46:03. | |
at this morning's weather. We will have it in one of your three | :46:04. | :46:13. | |
languages, would you mind asking what the weather is going to be | :46:14. | :46:28. | |
like? ASKS WHAT THE WEATHER WILL BE IN GERMAN | :46:29. | :46:28. | |
some showers and sunny spells around, the odd rumble of thunder. | :46:29. | :46:46. | |
With the breeze, not that warm. Showers coming out of Wales, | :46:47. | :46:50. | |
drifting towards the Midlands. Some rumbles of thunder and hail mixed in | :46:51. | :46:55. | |
as well. Further north, a good scattering of showers. Spells of | :46:56. | :47:00. | |
sunshine in between, not a terrible afternoon across Scotland. Some rain | :47:01. | :47:07. | |
at times. Temperatures 16- 17. Some brightness in northern England | :47:08. | :47:10. | |
through the afternoon, parts of southern Wales and the South mostly | :47:11. | :47:16. | |
dry. Good spells of sunshine, 18- 19. Showers moving through London | :47:17. | :47:22. | |
and into east Anglia. Some rumbles of thunder as well. Every chance of | :47:23. | :47:27. | |
rain, athletics in the east of London may see some showers. But | :47:28. | :47:31. | |
those showers moving through, and overall, a lot of dry weather to be | :47:32. | :47:35. | |
had. This evening, showers tending to fade away. Showers clearing away | :47:36. | :47:40. | |
from the western side of the UK. Ringing some cloud and outbreaks of | :47:41. | :47:43. | |
rain. With the cloudy skies, bringing rain. The bottom end of | :47:44. | :47:52. | |
single figures. A frost on the grass first thing. A fresh and chilly | :47:53. | :47:56. | |
start to the day. Central and eastern areas, sunshine early on. | :47:57. | :48:03. | |
Cloud amounts tending to increase. Pushing into Scotland and the | :48:04. | :48:08. | |
north-west of England and Wales. For many central and eastern areas, a | :48:09. | :48:12. | |
decent afternoon. Light winds, 21- 22 degrees. Saying finance dry. Next | :48:13. | :48:18. | |
week, things staying unsettled. Some spells of rain and showers, often | :48:19. | :48:23. | |
quite breezy. Later next week, things should begin to settle down. | :48:24. | :48:25. | |
To you. Coming up on this week's | :48:26. | :48:27. | |
Travel Show: Ben is seeking I am about to step | :48:28. | :48:33. | |
in the ring with Momo. This is a country | :48:34. | :48:53. | |
that some governments say you probably shouldn't visit | :48:54. | :49:04. | |
as a tourist, Pakistan. Terror-related incidents, | :49:05. | :49:06. | |
kidnappings and political turmoil have all taken their toll | :49:07. | :49:10. | |
on the country's reputation. And as the country | :49:11. | :49:14. | |
prepares to celebrate its 70th anniversary of independence, | :49:15. | :49:16. | |
The Travel Show's Benjamin Zand packed his backpack | :49:17. | :49:19. | |
and headed for Karachi. I was in Karachi, Pakistan, | :49:20. | :49:28. | |
on the search for some good news. As a man who likes | :49:29. | :49:32. | |
music, like pretty much everyone else in the world, | :49:33. | :49:35. | |
I thought it would be So I decided it was time | :49:36. | :49:38. | |
to check out Karachi's Historically, being a musician | :49:39. | :49:42. | |
here has been hard. Musicians and gigs have | :49:43. | :49:45. | |
often been targeted by But I had heard that | :49:46. | :49:49. | |
things were getting better and some great tunes | :49:50. | :49:52. | |
and artists were coming out as a So on an insanely hot day | :49:53. | :49:55. | |
in July I find out more. What is it like being | :49:56. | :50:02. | |
a musician here? It is, but it has become | :50:03. | :50:04. | |
a lot better to the point that we have | :50:05. | :50:10. | |
actually come out and started doing We have food festivals, | :50:11. | :50:13. | |
we have music festivals. We have lots of concerts | :50:14. | :50:15. | |
in the last year. People are not afraid any more | :50:16. | :50:18. | |
to come out and go to a concert. Is that these kind | :50:19. | :50:22. | |
of young musicians who are just like, I don't care, | :50:23. | :50:25. | |
I'm going to be a musician? There was a music | :50:26. | :50:29. | |
festival that took place A week before the event | :50:30. | :50:32. | |
there was a really tragic bomb blast took place | :50:33. | :50:36. | |
in Lahore, so we had to figure out whether we were going to have | :50:37. | :50:40. | |
the event or not these after that. Not out of any other | :50:41. | :50:44. | |
reason than the fact that it should happen regardless | :50:45. | :50:48. | |
of what is happening in the city. I wanted to see for | :50:49. | :50:51. | |
myself how Pakistan was And meet someone from this | :50:52. | :50:54. | |
new era of artists. The name they gave me | :50:55. | :50:57. | |
was Ali Gul Pir. Ali was jamming with his friends, | :50:58. | :51:04. | |
preparing for a gig the I talk about issues | :51:05. | :51:21. | |
that we face as a society. It is something like | :51:22. | :51:30. | |
there is a song about feudalism, feudal | :51:31. | :51:32. | |
landlords and the power. There is another song | :51:33. | :51:41. | |
about people who stare at women. I grew up with a single | :51:42. | :51:44. | |
mother and I saw her face a lot of that growing up | :51:45. | :51:47. | |
so I made a song about that. Youtube was banned in Pakistan so I | :51:48. | :51:51. | |
made a song about that. Ali wanted me to go | :51:52. | :52:20. | |
with him to his gig It was the first time Ali | :52:21. | :52:22. | |
would ever be playing in I left the band to go and prepare | :52:23. | :52:29. | |
for the show elsewhere. This could not be more | :52:30. | :52:37. | |
different from the image most people get when | :52:38. | :52:39. | |
you think of Pakistan. We are watching two beat boxers | :52:40. | :52:41. | |
perform to an audience full of young people eating pizza | :52:42. | :52:44. | |
and enjoying life waiting I have done hundreds | :52:45. | :52:47. | |
of shows but I still Before he went on stage | :52:48. | :53:14. | |
I decided to ask why By the end of the show I go home | :53:15. | :53:18. | |
and I go like, great, I made them dance, and I made | :53:19. | :53:24. | |
them think as well. A lot of people when they think | :53:25. | :53:34. | |
of Pakistan think of the Taliban, terror, and they would think that | :53:35. | :53:37. | |
being a musician would be difficult My content gets me into trouble | :53:38. | :53:40. | |
with some bad people but you can see a thousand | :53:41. | :53:46. | |
people here having fun. You don't have to be nervous | :53:47. | :53:48. | |
about security because, it happens, and if it | :53:49. | :53:55. | |
I have never been shot at while performing and stuff like | :53:56. | :54:00. | |
They are more or less the same people. | :54:01. | :54:08. | |
They just want to survive and make a good living. | :54:09. | :54:10. | |
In the end of the day they just want to make a living. | :54:11. | :54:15. | |
At the end of the day, somebody goes back home | :54:16. | :54:23. | |
happy, I think that's what I give them. | :54:24. | :54:25. | |
A little bit of happiness, a little bit of hope. | :54:26. | :54:31. | |
And finally this week, I'm in Bangkok finding out | :54:32. | :55:15. | |
by Thailand's National sport is drawing business | :55:16. | :55:17. | |
Fighters battle it out in villages and towns across the country | :55:18. | :55:25. | |
- but only the very best make it here, to the stadiums of Bangkok. | :55:26. | :55:30. | |
This is Rajadamnern Stadium, it's the oldest of its sort | :55:31. | :55:34. | |
here in Bangkok and it's held host to many a legendary Muay Thai fight | :55:35. | :55:38. | |
If you look into the rafters, you'll see a lot of local faces, | :55:39. | :55:44. | |
I have some fantastic seats so I'm going to go find them. | :55:45. | :55:56. | |
Tickets to the the main part of the arena start at 1,000 baht, | :55:57. | :56:00. | |
For that you can watch several bouts made up of five rounds. | :56:01. | :56:11. | |
The competitor who lands the most strikes on their opponent's body | :56:12. | :56:14. | |
Like boxing, you can also win by knockout. | :56:15. | :56:29. | |
These fighters are astonishing watching up close and personal. | :56:30. | :56:32. | |
But some bright spark at The Travel Show decided | :56:33. | :56:35. | |
it was a good thing for me to try it out first hand, | :56:36. | :56:38. | |
so tomorrow morning I'm heading over to an actual | :56:39. | :56:41. | |
Muay Thai camp that trains the fighters from all over Thailand. | :56:42. | :56:46. | |
I just hope I don't come out the other end too bruised | :56:47. | :56:49. | |
I head 45 minutes to the north of Bangkok to the gym | :56:50. | :57:02. | |
where some of the country's top champions live and train. | :57:03. | :57:15. | |
Tourists who want to get fit can stay at camps like this throughout | :57:16. | :57:19. | |
Thailand but this place is known as the country's toughest. | :57:20. | :57:21. | |
Back home where I'm training two hours a day and that's supposed | :57:22. | :57:30. | |
to be like the real tough stuff for competition. | :57:31. | :57:33. | |
Here, you train like six or seven hours a day. | :57:34. | :57:35. | |
With Muay Thai, you have to stay pretty much dead centre, | :57:36. | :57:40. | |
It's weird, it's like breaking habits. | :57:41. | :57:53. | |
I'm about to step in the ring with Momo, who is the top | :57:54. | :57:57. | |
I think I'm going to have to call it a day. | :57:58. | :58:40. | |
These guys are finely tuned athletes. | :58:41. | :58:46. | |
I have had the tiniest of training here. | :58:47. | :58:52. | |
It's been absolutely amazing, but my time here is done, | :58:53. | :58:54. | |
I'm very relieved to say that's it for this week but coming up on next | :58:55. | :59:07. | |
Coming up next week, we begin a journey from the far west | :59:08. | :59:17. | |
to the far east of India as the country celebrates 70 | :59:18. | :59:20. | |
Join us for that if you can, but don't forget you can follow | :59:21. | :59:33. | |
us wherever we are in the world by joining our social media feeds. | :59:34. | :59:36. | |
All of the details are on your screens now. | :59:37. | :59:39. | |
But from me and the rest of the team here in Bangkok, | :59:40. | :59:42. | |
Hello, this is Breakfast, with Roger Johnson and Naga Munchetty. | :59:43. | :00:07. | |

And Jay Wynne has got the weather. Some sunshine around, but quite a | :01:18. | :01:32. | |
lot of clout, and that will deliver showers, some of them quite heavy | :01:33. | :01:33. | |
with the odd rumble of thunder. Mo Farah has described | :01:34. | :01:35. | |
last night's 10,000m final at the World Athletics Championships | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
as one of the toughest The 34-year-old, who is due | :01:40. | :01:41. | |

Natalie Pirks But this win was arguably | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
the greatest of them all. working together to grind | :02:03. | :02:18. | |
Farah down. As Mo tried to whip the crowd | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
into a frenzy, his rivals kicked on. Down the final straight, | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
the nation and his wife It was his fastest | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
time in six years. The training had all been worth it - | :02:35. | :02:40. | |
to be able to celebrate with the most important | :02:41. | :02:49. | |
people in his life. I got a bit emotional at the start, | :02:50. | :02:51. | |
then I had to get in the zone, and, yeah, it's just | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
been, you know, amazing. He's not the only one | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
gearing up for goodbye. Lapping up the London love, | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
Usain Bolt has not been lightning quick this season, but then | :03:04. | :03:05. | |

and there he goes. He is aiming for his 12th world | :03:12. | :03:14. | |

piece of Mo Farah history. His tenth major global title, | :03:29. | :03:35. | |
his most impressive yet. This stadium was built | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
to leave a legacy. Natalie Pirks, BBC News, at the | :03:39. | :03:40. | |
London Stadium. He has certainly left his name in | :03:41. | :03:55. | |
the history of that place, hasn't he? The London Stadium in the early | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
morning light in East and, and inside the stadium lots to look | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
forward to after that amazing night from Mo Farah. He still has the | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
5000m to go, all being well, he picked up a slight injury last | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
night. We will be talking to Paula Radcliffe shortly, she will be live | :04:14. | :04:18. | |
in the stadium to talk to us, to give us her impressions of the early | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
days of the championship, and to look debt to what we can expect a | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
day. Prosecutors have told a court | :04:25. | :04:25. | |
in Las Vegas that a British computer expert has admitted creating | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
software that steals bank details. Marcus Hutchins, | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
aged 23 and from Devon, His lawyer says he denies | :04:32. | :04:32. | |
all the charges against him. Mr Hutchins was praised earlier this | :04:33. | :04:50. | |
year for helping to limit a global cyber attack that brought down | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
several NHS computer networks. From Las Vegas, our North America | :04:54. | :04:55. | |
correspondent James Cook reports. Marcus Hutchins appeared | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
in a Las Vegas courtroom. The prosecution said he admitted | :05:00. | :05:01. | |
writing computer code designed to steal banking details and also | :05:02. | :05:03. | |
claimed there was evidence that he discussed how to split | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
the profits with an accomplice. His lawyer says he denies | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
all the charges against him. The family, I think, | :05:10. | :05:11. | |
support and the friends' support and his co-workers and the community | :05:12. | :05:21. | |
have been tremendously Indeed, many fellow cyber security | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
experts regard Marcus Hutchins as a hero in an attack which caused | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
chaos for the NHS and spread as he was about to fly home | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
to the UK. He is due in court in | :05:32. | :05:40. | |
Wisconsin on Tuesday. Until then, the judge here | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
ordered his release on bail, subject to conditions which | :05:45. | :05:46. | |
include surrendering his passport Marcus Hutchins appeared | :05:47. | :05:48. | |
in court in Las Vegas right at the end | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
of the working week. His lawyers had just a few minutes | :05:54. | :05:55. | |
to scramble together his bail money, but by the time they had done so, | :05:56. | :05:59. | |
the courts had closed, which means we will have to spend | :06:00. | :06:02. | |
the weekend in jail. The United States has officially | :06:03. | :06:09. | |
informed the United Nations that it's withdrawing | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
from the Paris climate agreement. In June, President Donald Trump | :06:16. | :06:17. | |
drew international condemnation when he announced the decision | :06:18. | :06:19. | |
to leave the agreement. It had been drawn up by nearly 200 | :06:20. | :06:21. | |
nations to curb greenhouse gas The State Department says the | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
US will continue to participate in climate-change meetings | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
until the withdrawal The Irish Prime Minister, | :06:29. | :06:29. | |
Leo Varadkar, continues his first official visit | :06:30. | :06:42. | |
to Northern Ireland today. He'll attend a Pride event | :06:43. | :06:45. | |
in Belfast later. Yesterday he focused on Brexit, | :06:46. | :06:47. | |
suggesting that a bilateral customs union could be the best way | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
for the UK to deal with the issue of Northern Ireland's | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
border with the Republic, describing Brexit as | :06:54. | :06:55. | |
"the challenge of this generation". An Oxford University employee | :06:56. | :07:04. | |
who's been on the run on suspicion of murder | :07:05. | :07:06. | |
has been arrested Andrew Warren and Professor Wyndham | :07:07. | :07:08. | |
Lathem of Northwestern University are accused of stabbing | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
a 26-year-old man to death Both men were detained | :07:13. | :07:14. | |
in Oakland in California. After record-breaking temperatures | :07:15. | :07:21. | |
across Europe this week, scientists are warning | :07:22. | :07:23. | |
that the number of people killed could increase 50-fold | :07:24. | :07:25. | |
by the end of this century. A study in the Lancet Planetary | :07:26. | :07:32. | |
Health journal suggests that heatwaves alone could | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
account for 100,000 deaths a year. Researchers in Italy say | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
urgent action is needed to curb the effects | :07:40. | :07:41. | |
of climate change. Millions of rail passengers are | :07:42. | :07:54. | |
facing disruption as work to update the UK's busiest train station gets | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
under way today. An ?800 million revamp will close ten platforms at | :08:00. | :08:02. | |
Waterloo station to prepare for longer trains and create extra space | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
for passengers. The work is duty be finished at the end of August. | :08:07. | :08:12. | |
Animal story time, we have got a few of them, it is Saturday morning! And | :08:13. | :08:22. | |
alligator was spotted relaxing by a lake in Somerset. The reptile was | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
seen getting out of the water at a reservoir by a Bristol water | :08:27. | :08:31. | |
engineer. A spokesperson could not confirm the species, the staff | :08:32. | :08:38. | |
member bumped into it during a routine survey. It is only two but | :08:39. | :08:45. | |
long. It was captured, we are saying he, we don't know if it is he or | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
she, it is waiting to be collected by the RSPCA. I dodged know-how use | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
ExCeL alligator, I wouldn't want to! -- I don't know how you sex an | :08:54. | :09:00. | |
alligator. We are all very excited about how Mo | :09:01. | :09:11. | |
Farah did last night, and of course tonight Usain Bolt is running, and | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
lots of others as well. We are also excited because Paula Radcliffe is | :09:17. | :09:18. | |
going to join us soon. she's held the overall women's | :09:19. | :09:21. | |
marathon world record since 2003 and is regarded as one of Britain's | :09:22. | :09:24. | |
greatest long distance runners. She was in the stadium last night | :09:25. | :09:30. | |
for the start of the World Championships, it could be a gold | :09:31. | :09:36. | |
rush for British athletics. It was all about Mo Farah last night, | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
thanks for talking to us, your reflections on Mo Farah, another | :09:43. | :09:43. | |
imperious performance last night. It was, absolutely, and I think of | :09:44. | :09:52. | |
all is World Championships and Olympics victories, it was probably | :09:53. | :09:55. | |
the one where he was tested and challenged the most. The Ugandans | :09:56. | :10:00. | |
and the Kenyans, in particular, worked together to really take it to | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
him and test him, and to do as much as they could to try to draw the | :10:06. | :10:10. | |
sting out of him but they were not good enough to be able to do that. | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
Once it got into his territory, he was always in control. You must know | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
the feeling, because when you were competing, you were the best in the | :10:20. | :10:22. | |
world, the one that everyone wanted to beat. You sense that on the | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
track, it is Mo versus the rest, they all out to get him. Well, they | :10:28. | :10:34. | |
are, but very much in to myself, he really has that aura of | :10:35. | :10:37. | |
invincibility. I am not sure the others really deep down believe that | :10:38. | :10:43. | |
they can ever beat him. In their minds, they are always racing full | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
second, and that is why they were not capable of really testing him | :10:48. | :10:53. | |
last night. There were also points where they backed off, because in | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
their minds they are racing full second a lot of the time, and he | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
plays with the field, plays mind games, and that was very much in | :11:01. | :11:05. | |
evidence last night. As I say, I just don't believe that they know | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
how to beat him, or that they believe they can beat him. You are | :11:10. | :11:15. | |
being modest, we all thought you had an aura of invincibility! One man | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
who does have that is Usain Bolt, he had a problem with his starting | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
blocks last night, but nonetheless he seems on course for a golden | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
finish to his career. Yes, he does, and what he brings is a magic and an | :11:29. | :11:35. | |
excitement and involvement of the whole stadium. That was very much | :11:36. | :11:39. | |
reflected in the atmosphere last night, yes, it was the opening | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
night, a lot of people were there because they had come to see Usain | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
Bolt, and to see Mo Farah, but it did make for an amazing atmosphere | :11:48. | :11:50. | |
inside this stadium. A few sound checks going on behind me, I am | :11:51. | :11:56. | |
afraid, with the pyrotechnics. It is fine, we can hear you loud and | :11:57. | :11:59. | |
clear. You mention the sort of atmosphere that Usain Bolt brings | :12:00. | :12:05. | |
with him, athletics has had a tough time with doping allegations and the | :12:06. | :12:10. | |
Russian is you, of course. How important has he been for your sport | :12:11. | :12:16. | |
in making it so attractive and keeping it in the front of the | :12:17. | :12:19. | |
public consciousness in the last few years? Well, I think he has been | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
important, but probably more important, to be honest, has been | :12:25. | :12:29. | |
the public and the fans, and last night we had a full stadium. For a | :12:30. | :12:35. | |
lot of people that would be following on from the great time | :12:36. | :12:39. | |
they had in 2012, and a lot of people were watching on TV, wanting | :12:40. | :12:44. | |
to be part of it this time. Yes, Usain Bolt brings a lot to it, but | :12:45. | :12:48. | |
athletics has worked hard to try and come through those dark times, and | :12:49. | :12:52. | |
to be proud of the fact that we cannot guarantee that we will catch | :12:53. | :12:57. | |
every drug cheat, but we will do what we can to make it as hard as | :12:58. | :13:01. | |
possible, we won't shy away from announcing it on the eve of | :13:02. | :13:04. | |
championships, announcing that people have been caught, because the | :13:05. | :13:08. | |
number one job of the federation has to be to to ensure a level playing | :13:09. | :13:16. | |
field for the athletes. Looking forward, Usain Bolt goes today in | :13:17. | :13:20. | |
the 100 metres, from a British point of view, what can we look forward | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
to? A number of the golden generation, Jess Ennis-Hill, people | :13:26. | :13:29. | |
like yourself, Denise Lewis, have retired. Who should we be looking | :13:30. | :13:33. | |
out for as the stars of the future and potential medallists of the | :13:34. | :13:38. | |
future? Well, I think today we have got a really good opportunity, | :13:39. | :13:41. | |
obviously Katarina Johnson-Thompson going in the heptathlon, she has | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
been knocking on the door for a couple of years now, and we have | :13:47. | :13:49. | |
been waiting for the big performance to really come out of the that we | :13:50. | :13:52. | |
know is inside of her, that we know she is capable of doing. She is up | :13:53. | :13:58. | |
against Nafi Thiam. She is going to have a lot of support in this | :13:59. | :14:01. | |
stadium, I know. We saw a big step forward for the 1500 metres last | :14:02. | :14:07. | |
night, four women in that final, two of them running personal bests to | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
get there, phenomenal running, but kind of lost in how well Mo ran. But | :14:13. | :14:17. | |
she took it by the scruff of the neck, and a lot of people in those | :14:18. | :14:21. | |
semifinals will want to say a big thank you to her for the way that | :14:22. | :14:25. | |
she pays to them last night. And of course Laura Muir, Laura Weightman, | :14:26. | :14:28. | |
Sarah McDonald, or making it through as well. Men's 1500 metres, three | :14:29. | :14:34. | |
guys coming through running very well, looking for them to make that | :14:35. | :14:40. | |
statement up, very good at putting themselves in tactical races. We | :14:41. | :14:44. | |
have got the men's 800 this morning, three guys going there who are very | :14:45. | :14:56. | |
much youngsters, two of them very young, almost just making the step | :14:57. | :14:59. | |
up from the junior ranks into the senior ranks, just seeing what they | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
can do at a major championships, and it is all about the opportunities | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
for those youngsters. And Tom Bosworth in the walk as well, | :15:09. | :15:12. | |
another medal chance, there are lots of chances, rather than nailed on | :15:13. | :15:19. | |
favourites. Paula, thank you very much, very well across your brief, | :15:20. | :15:22. | |
all of the possible medallists, we are really grateful for your time | :15:23. | :15:25. | |
this morning. And just after nine we'll be hearing | :15:26. | :15:28. | |
from long-distance runner Jo Pavey, who will retrospectively receive | :15:29. | :15:31. | |
a bronze medal at today's games ten years after her race, | :15:32. | :15:34. | |
due to the disqualification You saw there was a bit of rain on | :15:35. | :15:48. | |
the track, wasn't there? There are some concerns about how that may | :15:49. | :15:52. | |
play out for competitors later on, I wonder what the picture is by the | :15:53. | :15:54. | |
rest of the country? And early rainbow in Fife, and for | :15:55. | :16:05. | |
that you need both rain and sunshine, and that is what we have | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
got this morning, sunshine and showers around as well. It is one of | :16:10. | :16:14. | |
those days, I'm afraid, sunny spells and showers around, some of them | :16:15. | :16:19. | |
quite heavy, and with a north-westerly breeze it is not | :16:20. | :16:23. | |
going to be warm. But there are some spells of sunshine this morning, | :16:24. | :16:26. | |
heavy shower through the Midlands towards East Anglia and the | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
south-east, into the afternoon. Further north, a scattering showers | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
across Scotland and Northern Ireland, but also some spells of | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
sunshine. 16 or 17 degrees for most places, a bit disappointing. The | :16:40. | :16:45. | |
North well Dominic West should do well, a shower or two across the | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
north-east, Wales, some rumbles of thunder in South Wales, as well as | :16:50. | :16:54. | |
the south-west. A few showers through the Midlands, East Anglia, | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
the south-east, moving through on the breeze, drier and brighter | :16:59. | :17:00. | |
intervals as well, but we are likely to see some showers moving through | :17:01. | :17:06. | |
the eastern side of London. Some rain at times for the athletics. | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
Showers tend to fade away through the afternoon and evening, under | :17:12. | :17:14. | |
this temporary ridge of high pressure, but low pressure will | :17:15. | :17:17. | |
bring cloud and rain to Northern Ireland by the end of the night. | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
Turning quite fresh, particularly in northern parts of the UK, well into | :17:23. | :17:27. | |
single figures, two degrees in rural Scotland, low enough for a touch of | :17:28. | :17:34. | |
grass frost. A fresh start on Sunday, Northern Ireland will be | :17:35. | :17:37. | |
breezy, cloudy with outbreaks of rain. That rain getting discovered | :17:38. | :17:43. | |
land, the north-west of England and Northwest Wales, but further south | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
and east hanging onto some decent weather. -- that rain getting into | :17:47. | :17:56. | |
Scotland. Staying and settled in the forecast, rain and showers, quite | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
breezy as well, fairly disappointing early next week, but settling down | :18:01. | :18:01. | |
later on next week. The Irish Prime Minister has called | :18:02. | :18:05. | |
for unique solutions to preserve the relationship between the UK | :18:06. | :18:07. | |
and the European Union after Brexit. His comments highlight how little | :18:08. | :18:12. | |
progress has been made to solve in the 14 months since | :18:13. | :18:15. | |
the vote to leave the EU. The former Northern Ireland minister | :18:16. | :18:21. | |
Lord Hain has welcomed the Taoiseach Leo Varadkar's | :18:22. | :18:23. | |
suggestions He joins us now from | :18:24. | :18:25. | |
his home in Neath. Thank you very much for joining us, | :18:26. | :18:40. | |
pleasure to have you with us and Breakfast. Leo Varadkar, I think it | :18:41. | :18:44. | |
is fair to say he has split opinion, but he has put his neck out in a way | :18:45. | :18:49. | |
to say what is happening so far with Brexit negotiations isn't good | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
enough, so here is my idea, what to make of that? Yes, he has done | :18:54. | :18:59. | |
exactly that, and it is very welcome, because there has been a | :19:00. | :19:03. | |
combination of confusion and silence about how we deal with this very | :19:04. | :19:06. | |
important consequence of Brexit, the Irish border, which will be between | :19:07. | :19:13. | |
the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland, it will be a European Union | :19:14. | :19:19. | |
customs frontier. And the rules of the European Union, and indeed | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
Britain, in order to control migration and so on, much of the | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
impetus behind Brexit, will have to come up with a solution that | :19:28. | :19:33. | |
resolves this conundrum. If you just apply the rules and Northern | :19:34. | :19:36. | |
Ireland, along with the rest of the United Kingdom, leaves the European | :19:37. | :19:40. | |
Union, then that border, and EU rules, will have to be a hard | :19:41. | :19:44. | |
border. It will have to have security posts, it will have to have | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
checks on goods transiting over the border, and at the moment the border | :19:50. | :19:53. | |
is invisible, you hardly know you have crossed it, except the speed | :19:54. | :19:59. | |
signs go from miles per hour two kilometres, and it is hundreds of | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
miles long, there are hundreds of crossings, it is impossible to | :20:04. | :20:09. | |
police. Farms straddle the border. So a much more sensible solution is, | :20:10. | :20:14. | |
as the Taoiseach says, the Irish Prime Minister says, for Britain, in | :20:15. | :20:19. | |
exiting from the European Union, to remain within the customs union. | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
Other countries outside the European Union are members of the customs | :20:24. | :20:27. | |
union. That would then mean that Northern Ireland would no longer be | :20:28. | :20:32. | |
required to wreck today border control on that border. The | :20:33. | :20:37. | |
government has said that it wants bold and ambitious free-trade | :20:38. | :20:41. | |
agreements with the EU, it also has admitted that no-one wants a return | :20:42. | :20:46. | |
to a hard border, that the border must be a seamless and frictionless | :20:47. | :20:49. | |
as possible for trade, and the preservation of the common travel | :20:50. | :20:54. | |
area is maintained, so is the UK Government not doing enough? I just | :20:55. | :20:58. | |
wonder how helpful it is when our neighbour, the UK's neighbour, very | :20:59. | :21:03. | |
close neighbour, says, you are not doing enough. Well, I have discussed | :21:04. | :21:10. | |
this problem with British Government ministers, and I have debated it in | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
the House of Lords, and there is no alternative on offer. There is no | :21:16. | :21:19. | |
solution on offer, even a hint of one, that provides a way of escaping | :21:20. | :21:26. | |
this almost impossible conundrum. That is to say, the external land | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
border of the European Union will be the Irish border. The only land | :21:31. | :21:35. | |
border facing onto the United Kingdom. Now, if Britain, after | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
Brexit, wants to control migration, then there will have to be some kind | :21:41. | :21:44. | |
of control of that border. Because otherwise EU nationals who want to | :21:45. | :21:48. | |
come into the country illegally will come through the Irish Republic, as | :21:49. | :21:58. | |
they are entitled to do. So that issue is from the British point of | :21:59. | :22:05. | |
view, but the Irish border will need to have some control, otherwise | :22:06. | :22:09. | |
goods will be sold across it in contravention of the customs union. | :22:10. | :22:12. | |
A solution is, as the Taoiseach says, for either Britain to stay in | :22:13. | :22:17. | |
the customs union with the Irish Republic, in which case the problem | :22:18. | :22:21. | |
is solved. But he seems to suggest that there should be a new | :22:22. | :22:24. | |
agreement, a far better solution is to stay within the customs union, | :22:25. | :22:30. | |
not try to spend months and years negotiating a new one. But I also | :22:31. | :22:33. | |
think that Northern Ireland needs to remain within the single market. | :22:34. | :22:39. | |
Sorry for interrupting you, time is always limited, as you will | :22:40. | :22:43. | |
understand, may I talk about the power-sharing agreement and progress | :22:44. | :22:49. | |
at Stormont? I don't want to use the word blame, because it is too | :22:50. | :22:53. | |
subjective, but what is the sticking point here flood is? What is the | :22:54. | :22:57. | |
main hurdle that needs to be overcome to get these talks moving | :22:58. | :23:02. | |
to something constructive? Trust and mutual respect is at the heart of | :23:03. | :23:08. | |
it, but what has been welcomed in the Taoiseach's intervention on the | :23:09. | :23:11. | |
border issue is that I have been critical, in debates in the House of | :23:12. | :23:17. | |
Lords, as as Paul Murphy, another former Northern Ireland Secretary, | :23:18. | :23:20. | |
about the virtual silence from Number Ten and from government, | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
whereas in the past what used to happen when a crisis occurred during | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
the peace process, as there is one now, with the Northern Ireland | :23:29. | :23:35. | |
Gutmann suspended, not able to make an impact is that you get a summons. | :23:36. | :23:42. | |
-- a summit. This happened a lot over the ten years following the | :23:43. | :23:46. | |
Good Friday agreement to resolve the problem, and usually it did resolve | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
the problem. That has been singularly absent, and I think it is | :23:51. | :23:53. | |
very important that Theresa May and the Taoiseach go to Belfast in a | :23:54. | :23:56. | |
matter of weeks to get the whole problem resolved, and I think the | :23:57. | :24:01. | |
solution is there, but it requires both governments, from the very top, | :24:02. | :24:08. | |
to roll up their sleeves. Lord Hain, thank you so much for your time this | :24:09. | :24:12. | |
morning, former Northern Ireland Secretary, thank you very much. Good | :24:13. | :24:20. | |
morning if you have just joined us, you are watching Breakfast from BBC | :24:21. | :24:23. | |
News, time for a look at the newspapers. | :24:24. | :24:24. | |
The Guardian's Peter Bradshaw is here to tell us | :24:25. | :24:27. | |
Good morning to you, nice to see you, thank you for coming in. | :24:28. | :24:36. | |
Charlie Gard is on the front page of the Guardian, which you have | :24:37. | :24:41. | |
selected, his parents had given an interview. In fact, it is not his | :24:42. | :24:47. | |
parents, the clinician at Great Ormond Street... Is parents have | :24:48. | :24:49. | |
given an interview to one of the papers. But the clinician of Great | :24:50. | :24:57. | |
Ormond Street Hospital has spoken on conditions of anonymity to the | :24:58. | :25:01. | |
Guardian today, an interview which makes the point that they themselves | :25:02. | :25:08. | |
were deeply affected by baby Charlie's ordeal and the ordeal of | :25:09. | :25:15. | |
his parents, but he is also making the point that the agony was fuelled | :25:16. | :25:23. | |
by politicians, that people sticking their oar in, grinding an axe of | :25:24. | :25:26. | |
their own, protracted the situation, and effectively hijacking the act of | :25:27. | :25:33. | |
Charlie Gard's prance... They have named the politicians. Yes, saying | :25:34. | :25:40. | |
the agony had been kept alive by Donald Trump, the Pope and Boris | :25:41. | :25:43. | |
Johnson, who suddenly more new about mitochondrial diseases than our | :25:44. | :25:48. | |
expert consultants, so a situation where people were chatting outside | :25:49. | :25:52. | |
the High Court, shame on Great Ormond Street Hospital, these | :25:53. | :25:56. | |
hard-working doctors and nurses suddenly found themselves the bad | :25:57. | :25:59. | |
guys. The interview is very interesting, and it shows how not as | :26:00. | :26:06. | |
for the purposes, but for self publicist, media self publicist who | :26:07. | :26:13. | |
found it expedient to keep this child's agony in the public eye, | :26:14. | :26:19. | |
they made things a lot worse. Therefore a senior consultant, | :26:20. | :26:21. | |
albeit anonymously, to come out and say this. | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
Always interesting when someone who has been so close to the Cabinet | :26:27. | :26:32. | |
leaves and goes to the press, we have seen movement both ways, | :26:33. | :26:40. | |
haven't we? This is Theresa May's top aide, Nick Timothy, briefly | :26:41. | :26:43. | |
notorious for masterminding or helping to mastermind one of the | :26:44. | :26:48. | |
most unfortunate general election campaigns in modern times. According | :26:49. | :26:52. | |
to the headline, he has broken his silence - it wasn't a very long | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
silence! A period of silence is what people wanted from him. He has | :26:57. | :27:00. | |
broken his silence, he has given an interview to the Telegraph in what | :27:01. | :27:05. | |
appears to be in advance of a regular column for the Telegraph. My | :27:06. | :27:10. | |
colleague Marina Hyde has spoken about this as well, and he has | :27:11. | :27:14. | |
weighed in with a bit of self-justification, saying that | :27:15. | :27:17. | |
Theresa May had been a victim of sexism, as some people in | :27:18. | :27:21. | |
Westminster refused to give her the credit for coming up with their own | :27:22. | :27:27. | |
policies, instead preferring to believe that advisers like him were | :27:28. | :27:33. | |
responsible. Very decent of him(!) A way of saying it is all her fault? | :27:34. | :27:38. | |
Very keen for her to take the credit for the way things turned out, | :27:39. | :27:42. | |
ignoring the fact that Fiona Hill was involved. There was a lot of | :27:43. | :27:46. | |
talk about who came up with strong and stable. | :27:47. | :27:53. | |
And who put the care issue into the manifesto? A lot of MPs at the time | :27:54. | :27:56. | |
said they didn't know anything about it. Nick Timothy, as I say, very | :27:57. | :28:02. | |
concerned about sexism, that Mrs May should take the credit. We spoke to | :28:03. | :28:08. | |
Simon Calder earlier, he will be back, the Independent's travel | :28:09. | :28:13. | |
editor, about Saturday flight beaver, a headline writer's gift. It | :28:14. | :28:24. | |
is summer, people are going on holiday, people, papers talking | :28:25. | :28:26. | |
about how horrible it is to go on holiday, designed to cheer people up | :28:27. | :28:33. | |
who are not going on holiday! Going abroad is awful, foreigners are | :28:34. | :28:36. | |
awful, foreign baggage handlers are awful, because they go on strike, | :28:37. | :28:40. | |
and foreign weather is awful, because it is so hot. And this is | :28:41. | :28:46. | |
not your opinion. It is not! This is the kind of mood that settles on the | :28:47. | :28:50. | |
papers, a kind of masochistic moods that settles on the papers, oh, it | :28:51. | :28:56. | |
is awful, having gone on about border controls, we want tighter | :28:57. | :28:59. | |
border controls, but when we want to go over to foreign land on holiday, | :29:00. | :29:04. | |
suddenly these controls are a nightmare, and all these people, it | :29:05. | :29:08. | |
is just terrible. And to add insult to injury, famous people having no | :29:09. | :29:14. | |
problems at all. This picture is at Barcelona, and here is Neymar, who | :29:15. | :29:21. | |
doesn't have to queue up! It doesn't affect Prince Harry, of course, who | :29:22. | :29:26. | |
was also going on holiday. So a weird summer holiday masochism. How | :29:27. | :29:30. | |
susceptible do you think you are too advertising? I am very susceptible. | :29:31. | :29:37. | |
You are? I am! If you see an advert, you might be tipped one way or | :29:38. | :29:43. | |
another by an advert. It is a very good question. I find this | :29:44. | :29:47. | |
fascinating. It is a really interesting story, in the Times, | :29:48. | :29:54. | |
watch manufacturers have discovered that... I am not sure how new this | :29:55. | :30:02. | |
is, my wife used to work in the watch industry. Eyebrow and watch | :30:03. | :30:07. | |
manufacturers like Rolex have discovered that when they want to | :30:08. | :30:11. | |
show a watch face, the time that they have to show is 10:10, that is | :30:12. | :30:15. | |
the time that sells the most watches. Psychological researchers | :30:16. | :30:22. | |
from the university have investigated this, and they think it | :30:23. | :30:28. | |
is because 10:10 mimics a smiley face. When they tried it with 8:20, | :30:29. | :30:35. | |
that is a frown, we won't buy watches like that. But 10:10, it | :30:36. | :30:42. | |
also mimics a tick. So whenever you see a watch advertised, it is always | :30:43. | :30:44. | |
showing 10:10. It went be ten past 10am when you | :30:45. | :31:01. | |
come back to us. We will see you at 9:20am. Thank you. Still to come, Mo | :31:02. | :31:14. | |
Farah is leaving the track and Usain Bolt will be retiring. How are we | :31:15. | :31:21. | |
going to inspire children? Stay with us, we will be back in a moment. | :31:22. | :32:31. | |
Hello, this is Breakfast with Roger Johnson and Naga Munchetty. | :32:32. | :32:35. | |

But first, a summary of this morning's main news. | :32:39. | :32:43. | |
Mo Farah has been celebrating his win in last night's 10,000 metres | :32:44. | :32:45. | |

expert has admitted creating software that steals bank details. | :33:09. | :33:10. | |
Marcus Hutchins, aged 23 and from Devon, | :33:11. | :33:12. | |
He was praised earlier this year for helping to limit a global cyber | :33:13. | :33:19. | |

The Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar continues his | :33:22. | :33:28. | |
first official visit to Northern Ireland today. | :33:29. | :33:30. | |
He'll attend a Pride event in Belfast later. | :33:31. | :33:33. | |
Yesterday he focused on Brexit, suggesting that a bilateral customs | :33:34. | :33:35. | |
union could be the best way for the UK to deal with the issue | :33:36. | :33:39. | |
of Northern Ireland's border with the Republic, | :33:40. | :33:40. | |
describing Brexit as the challenge of this generation. | :33:41. | :33:47. | |
The United States has officially informed the United Nations | :33:48. | :33:51. | |
that it's withdrawing from the Paris Climate agreement. | :33:52. | :33:53. | |
In June, President Donald Trump drew international condemnation | :33:54. | :33:55. | |
when he announced the decision to leave the agreement - | :33:56. | :33:58. | |
it had been drawn up by nearly 200 nations to curb greenhouse gas | :33:59. | :34:01. | |
The State Department says the US will continue to participate | :34:02. | :34:05. | |
in climate change meetings until the withdrawal | :34:06. | :34:06. | |
After record breaking temperatures across Europe this week, | :34:07. | :34:36. | |
scientists are warning that the number of people killed | :34:37. | :34:38. | |
by extreme weather conditions could increase 50-fold by the end | :34:39. | :34:41. | |
A study in the Lancet Planetary Health journal suggests that | :34:42. | :34:44. | |
heatwaves alone could account for 100,000 deaths a year. | :34:45. | :34:46. | |
Researchers in Italy say urgent action is needed to curb | :34:47. | :34:48. | |
People closely connected to the video sharing site YouTube | :34:49. | :35:02. | |
have told the BBC that the company's child protection | :35:03. | :35:04. | |
They say the site has a huge backlog of reports about potential grooming | :35:05. | :35:08. | |
They also claim members of the public who flag up material | :35:09. | :35:12. | |
are unlikely to hear back from the company. | :35:13. | :35:14. | |
YouTube, which is owned by Google, said it strictly prohibits content | :35:15. | :35:17. | |
Millions of rail passengers are facing up to three weeks | :35:18. | :35:28. | |
of disruption as work to update the UK's busiest train station | :35:29. | :35:30. | |
An ?800 million revamp will close ten platforms at London Waterloo | :35:31. | :35:34. | |
station to prepare for longer trains and create extra | :35:35. | :35:36. | |
The work is due to be finished at the end of August. | :35:37. | :35:47. | |
A Staffordshire butcher says he has made a friend for life | :35:48. | :35:49. | |
after rescuing a stray lamb with a broken leg. | :35:50. | :35:51. | |
Sean Landy found Lily the lamb shivering in a hedge near his farm | :35:52. | :35:54. | |
Barely a week old, she's now moved in with | :35:55. | :36:07. | |
Mr Landy's confirmed that Lily definitely isn't | :36:08. | :36:10. | |
After a thrilling opening night at the athletics | :36:11. | :36:28. | |
World Championships, let's find out what's | :36:29. | :36:30. | |
Jess is at the London Stadium for us this morning. | :36:31. | :36:39. | |
Jess, good morning. The fact that you have moved from the track into | :36:40. | :36:45. | |
the stand is a pointer that activity is starting there and they have | :36:46. | :36:49. | |
kicked two of? Yes, very much. Hello. Final | :36:50. | :36:54. | |
preparations are underway for the beginning of day two of these World | :36:55. | :36:57. | |
Championships here at the London stadium. There are various staff | :36:58. | :37:04. | |
around, mowing the grass, setting up the high jump. Staff are cleaning | :37:05. | :37:09. | |
the seats, sweeping the aisles, making sure everything is in tiptop | :37:10. | :37:13. | |
condition. We have come up from the track and we are in the stands and | :37:14. | :37:17. | |
this is where tens of thousands of people were in position last night | :37:18. | :37:24. | |
to see something spectacular. Sir Mo Farah delivered another World | :37:25. | :37:29. | |
Championship gold medal. It was fantastic, particularly as he | :37:30. | :37:33. | |
crossed the finishing line. We saw him with his family and his | :37:34. | :37:37. | |
children. It was such an emotional scene. It was a top and thrilling | :37:38. | :37:43. | |
race for Mo Farah. He held off a determined challenge from his | :37:44. | :37:44. | |
rivals. You gave us a scare | :37:45. | :37:52. | |
going around the bend, tripping twice and stepping | :37:53. | :37:54. | |
out of your lane. You know what it is like to | :37:55. | :37:59. | |
double up, you have four days You have to go through | :38:00. | :38:15. | |
a hit for that one. How do you do that now, | :38:16. | :38:18. | |
block this out or enjoy it It is a moment that is done now, | :38:19. | :38:21. | |
I have to get back to the basics. That is what it takes | :38:22. | :38:28. | |
if I want to come back The crowd had already been treated | :38:29. | :38:31. | |
to Usain Bolt's first appearance at his final championships | :38:32. | :38:37. | |
before he retires. He recovered from a dreadful start | :38:38. | :38:39. | |
to win his 100-metres heat and reach the semi-finals, | :38:40. | :38:42. | |
but he wasn't happy with his run I am not really fond of these | :38:43. | :38:54. | |
blocks. I think they are the worst blogs I have experienced. I have to | :38:55. | :38:59. | |
get this together. I have to get the start together, I can't keep doing | :39:00. | :39:02. | |
this. What is it about the blogs in particular? It is shaky. When I did | :39:03. | :39:08. | |
my warm up, it pushed back and fell back and it's not what I am used to. | :39:09. | :39:13. | |
It is not a sturdy or as firm as what I am used to. | :39:14. | :39:18. | |
Reece Prescod ran a personal best to reach the semi-finals | :39:19. | :39:20. | |
in his first World Championships - he said he loved being | :39:21. | :39:23. | |
In fact all three British sprinters made it through, | :39:24. | :39:26. | |
so we'll see Prescod, James Desaolu and CJ Ujah | :39:27. | :39:29. | |
Also in action will be Laura Muir, who was inspired to take her | :39:30. | :39:33. | |
athletics career to the next level when she watched London | :39:34. | :39:36. | |
She goes in the 1,500 metres semi-finals, along with Jess Judd, | :39:37. | :39:39. | |
Now, let's look at the rest of the sport - and it's delicately | :39:40. | :39:49. | |
balanced after Day One of the Fourth and Final Test against | :39:50. | :39:52. | |
England captain Joe Root made a half-century for his 10th | :39:53. | :39:57. | |
Test match in a row - and Ben Stokes hit 58, but he was | :39:58. | :40:01. | |
England will resume later this morning on 260 for 6. | :40:02. | :40:12. | |
Well, you always want 400 in the first innings | :40:13. | :40:14. | |
I think, having lost Ben just at the close, if we can get 350 | :40:15. | :40:18. | |
I think we would take that right now. | :40:19. | :40:20. | |
350 plus, definitely, you always want to try | :40:21. | :40:22. | |
Maybe that last wicket might knock a few off it. | :40:23. | :40:31. | |
Paris St-Germain fans will have to wait a little longer before | :40:32. | :40:34. | |
they see World Record signing Neymar in action. | :40:35. | :40:36. | |
The world's most expensive footballer, will miss his side's | :40:37. | :40:38. | |
first match of the season today after his documents failed | :40:39. | :40:40. | |
The Brazilian forward will, though, be presented to supporters before | :40:41. | :40:44. | |
The English domestic football season is already under way. | :40:45. | :40:55. | |
Sunderland began life back in the Championship with a 1-1 | :40:56. | :40:57. | |
After Bradley Johnson had put Derby ahead, | :40:58. | :41:01. | |
Lewis Grabban equalised from the penalty spot. | :41:02. | :41:02. | |
Elsewhere Nottingham Forest beat Millwall 1-0. | :41:03. | :41:04. | |
The Scottish Premiership season starts today, | :41:05. | :41:06. | |
champions Celtic play Hearts in the lunchtime kick off. | :41:07. | :41:22. | |
English golfer Georgia Hall is two shots off the pace at the half-way | :41:23. | :41:25. | |
stage of the Women's British Open at Kingsbarns in Scotland. | :41:26. | :41:27. | |
Out in front is IK Kim of South Korea, who made an eagle | :41:28. | :41:33. | |
Leeds Rhinos' hopes of a top four finish in Super League were boosted | :41:34. | :41:44. | |
with a 32-16 victory over Wigan Warriors in the Super 8's. | :41:45. | :41:47. | |
Elsewhere there were wins for Hull, Huddersfield and Warrington Wolves. | :41:48. | :42:02. | |
Yes, we're saying goodbye to Mo on the track and | :42:03. | :42:05. | |
But how can their careers help inspire the next generation? | :42:06. | :42:17. | |
I went to meet up with some children on an estate in London | :42:18. | :42:20. | |
giving athletics a go for the very first time. | :42:21. | :42:34. | |
Sprinting for the summer. This is not your typical athletics venue, | :42:35. | :42:41. | |
but that these young people it is the stage and it is right on the | :42:42. | :42:45. | |
doorstep. I'm in West London with these young people who have seen the | :42:46. | :42:49. | |
stars on the screen and now they are going to try the sport up for | :42:50. | :43:00. | |
themselves. Who better to give some tips than a European gold medallist. | :43:01. | :43:05. | |
You can meet new friends from the state that they probably would not | :43:06. | :43:08. | |
have met on a normal day and something like this encourages and | :43:09. | :43:14. | |
to communicate with each other, make it fun and enjoyable. What kind of | :43:15. | :43:18. | |
activities have we got going on today? I saw some javelin throwing | :43:19. | :43:22. | |
and they seem pretty good at it. We have relays going on. We have a | :43:23. | :43:26. | |
hurdle relay earlier which I took part in. Did they beat you? Most of | :43:27. | :43:32. | |
them did. They are quick kids. As you can see, they have the pattern | :43:33. | :43:37. | |
which is teaching them to do the relay properly from grassroots so by | :43:38. | :43:40. | |
the time they are seniors or teenagers they will have the key | :43:41. | :43:44. | |
skills to be part of a relay team. These were Championships will see | :43:45. | :43:47. | |
some of the biggest stars in athletics competing on the track and | :43:48. | :43:51. | |
there is none bigger than Mo Farah and Usain Bolt. It is important. | :43:52. | :43:57. | |
Normally what happens is they might watch the Olympics and watch Usain | :43:58. | :44:03. | |
Bolt Mo Farah and there's nowhere for them to go when they forget | :44:04. | :44:06. | |
about it until four years later when we have permits Olympics or World | :44:07. | :44:10. | |
Championships. We wanted to capture the spirit at the right time. | :44:11. | :44:15. | |
Sometimes need projects like this to bring people together. These lot are | :44:16. | :44:18. | |
eight years old and will probably be friends for life from this. They | :44:19. | :44:23. | |
might go to take part in athletics and do well, but more than that, it | :44:24. | :44:27. | |
is creating somewhere locally where they can take part. Why do keep | :44:28. | :44:31. | |
coming back to be sessions? Because the sessions are really fun. I like | :44:32. | :44:37. | |
doing running and athletics. Why? Because it gets me pumped and if I | :44:38. | :44:42. | |
am sad, it put me back up again. They have tried athletics for | :44:43. | :44:45. | |
themselves now they will be able to watch the pros in action to the | :44:46. | :44:49. | |
World Championships through this project and who knows how many will | :44:50. | :44:53. | |
be able to go on and emulate the hubris? -- emulate their heroes. | :44:54. | :45:12. | |
Day two begins in about an hour and a half. Lots of staff milling | :45:13. | :45:20. | |
around, mowing the grass, setting up the high jump, claiming the seats. | :45:21. | :45:24. | |
It is all go over the next couple of hours before the action gets way. It | :45:25. | :45:31. | |
starts on the BBC at around ten o'clock. There will be lots to look | :45:32. | :45:35. | |
forward to. I am glad to hear they are claiming | :45:36. | :45:40. | |
this is because when they are wet, there is nothing worse than having a | :45:41. | :45:45. | |
wet bottom and then being for the rest of the day. Nobody wants a | :45:46. | :45:47. | |
soggy bottom. Thank you, Jess. Well as we've been hearing | :45:48. | :45:51. | |
it's a busy Saturday at the World Athletics Championships | :45:52. | :45:53. | |
with 18 events at Here's a quick look ahead | :45:54. | :45:55. | |
to some of the moments Katarina Johnson Thomson has long | :45:56. | :46:08. | |
been tipped as the successor to Jessica Ennis heal. She is now | :46:09. | :46:12. | |
living and training in France, but can she win her first senior | :46:13. | :46:23. | |
heptathlon events on British soil? Sophie Hitch on one of her previous | :46:24. | :46:32. | |
competition. Will she be able to replicate success? Usain Bolt will | :46:33. | :46:37. | |
complete his last individual event. He qualified in the first heat in | :46:38. | :46:41. | |
which he said it was far from his best, blaming the starting blocks. | :46:42. | :46:47. | |
Can he deliver the show stopping performance that we have come to | :46:48. | :46:56. | |
expect from him. There is coverage from 9:30am on BBC Two and then from | :46:57. | :46:58. | |
ten o'clock on BBC One. And just after 9 we'll be hearing | :46:59. | :47:02. | |
from long-distance runner Jo Pavey, who will retrospectively receive | :47:03. | :47:05. | |
a bronze medal at today's games ten years after her race, | :47:06. | :47:07. | |
due to the disqualification Here's Jay with a look | :47:08. | :47:09. | |
at this morning's weather. Some showers are in the forecast we | :47:10. | :47:31. | |
will see rain at times in and around the London area. We have already | :47:32. | :47:36. | |
seen a few showers. Here is a rainbow in five, but it it's not -- | :47:37. | :47:54. | |
but it's not all doom and gloom. Some sunny spells and heavy showers. | :47:55. | :48:02. | |
A good crop of showers across parts of Scotland and Northern Ireland, | :48:03. | :48:05. | |
but there will be dry and bright interludes. The north-east of | :48:06. | :48:13. | |
England is more likely to see showers in the north-west. It should | :48:14. | :48:18. | |
be dry and bright and in south Wales and the south-west of England it | :48:19. | :48:23. | |
will be mostly dry, but through the Midlands, East Anglia and the | :48:24. | :48:28. | |
south-east it is a mixture of Sunni showers -- of sunshine and showers. | :48:29. | :48:41. | |
As you go to the evening, the showers we do see will clear away. | :48:42. | :48:46. | |
The skies were clear, but there will be Rainford Northern Ireland of | :48:47. | :48:50. | |
every of low pressure. For the bulk of the UK it will be chilly. In wall | :48:51. | :48:58. | |
spots we are into single figures. Temperature is low enough for a | :48:59. | :49:03. | |
touch of frost. Northern Ireland. Wet with a bit of a breeze, but it | :49:04. | :49:08. | |
should brighten up as the rain moves into central Scotland and then it | :49:09. | :49:12. | |
will push its way into the north-west of England and Wales. | :49:13. | :49:17. | |
From March of East Anglia and the south-east, it will be quite bright. | :49:18. | :49:27. | |
Onto the start of next week and it looks disappointing. Rain and | :49:28. | :49:31. | |
showers and quite breezy. Hopefully though later on next week things | :49:32. | :49:38. | |
were beginning -- things will begin to settle down. | :49:39. | :49:40. | |
At 93, Reg Buttress from South Wales is thought to be Britain's | :49:41. | :49:43. | |
Now, after more than 30 years in his current job he's decided it's | :49:44. | :49:47. | |
This isn't the first time he's hung up his apron though. | :49:48. | :49:54. | |
He first stopped working at the age of 65, but lasted just six weeks | :49:55. | :49:57. | |
Our correspondent Tomos Morgan went to meet him ahead | :49:58. | :50:03. | |
But his customers and colleagues love him. | :50:04. | :50:21. | |
He retired ones that 65, just a few years into his time at Sainsbury's. | :50:22. | :50:25. | |
His retirement only lasted a few weeks. | :50:26. | :50:32. | |
I look forward to coming here to meet people. | :50:33. | :50:34. | |
After working at the supermarket for over 35 years, next month, | :50:35. | :50:38. | |
when he turns 94, why will he finally | :50:39. | :50:43. | |
I need to do some jobs in the summer. | :50:44. | :50:56. | |
He has had five different careers during his life, | :50:57. | :51:00. | |
starting like many others in the mines. | :51:01. | :51:03. | |
After working for 80 years, his work ethic and commitment | :51:04. | :51:05. | |
to the job is still as strong as ever. | :51:06. | :51:09. | |
I don't know what I'll do when he's not doing it. | :51:10. | :51:16. | |
Believed to be the oldest shop worker in Britain, | :51:17. | :51:19. | |
Reg is 75 years older than the youngest worker | :51:20. | :51:23. | |
It is clear his enthusiasm rubs off on shoppers and colleagues | :51:24. | :51:29. | |
Yes, everyone likes to meet and greet | :51:30. | :51:42. | |
I will miss them, the people, the customers. | :51:43. | :51:52. | |
Many have known Reg since they were children, | :51:53. | :51:55. | |
and they will be just as sad as he will be next month | :51:56. | :51:58. | |
If you are going abroad this summer, will you be able to ask | :51:59. | :52:22. | |
for the bill, order a drink or even say hello in the local language? | :52:23. | :52:27. | |
New figures show fewer young people are learning French and German | :52:28. | :52:34. | |
and applications to study European language degrees have fallen | :52:35. | :52:37. | |
We asked people in Salford how important it is to learn | :52:38. | :52:42. | |
another language in the age of Google translate? | :52:43. | :52:58. | |
I lived in France for a few years, so I speak French and I understand | :52:59. | :53:05. | |
Spanish people. I think it's important that we speak different | :53:06. | :53:08. | |
languages. I have learnt French in the past and haven't used it very | :53:09. | :53:16. | |
often, but learning languages is a good idea. It depends on if you are | :53:17. | :53:22. | |
going to use it. If you're not, it's academic. We speak Thai and Hindi | :53:23. | :53:29. | |
because we've lived in those places. If you are not going to live in | :53:30. | :53:34. | |
those places, it's not much use to you. When I was young we did not | :53:35. | :53:37. | |
have the opportunity to learn languages and I look back now and I | :53:38. | :53:41. | |
think orchids should have it, they definitely should have it. | :53:42. | :53:50. | |
We're joined now by Kirsty Heimerl-Moggan, | :53:51. | :53:52. | |
a course leader in Interpreting and Translation at the University | :53:53. | :53:54. | |
of Central Lancashire and by entrepreneur Guy Blaskey. | :53:55. | :53:58. | |
Thank you both are coming in. Sky, you are an entrepreneur, you speak a | :53:59. | :54:08. | |
couple of languages yourself, they have been crucial presumably to your | :54:09. | :54:14. | |
success? I think they have been to date, but a lot has changed now. | :54:15. | :54:23. | |
Unfortunately, although I am a language graduate, I don't think | :54:24. | :54:26. | |
they are that relevant as they have been in the past. Why? I want with a | :54:27. | :54:41. | |
-- I went for a talk with Google recently. What we have found is that | :54:42. | :54:49. | |
it's not about the language it's about how to do business in | :54:50. | :54:58. | |
different countries. So we sell dog food in supermarkets in the UK which | :54:59. | :55:03. | |
has helped us to know how to deal with supermarkets and now we are | :55:04. | :55:09. | |
going to launch in France. It's more about how to deal with Boesak was -- | :55:10. | :55:17. | |
to do with those sectors as opposed the language. So what are the | :55:18. | :55:23. | |
advantages of learning another language? You get an insight into | :55:24. | :55:34. | |
the other culture. I disagree with it not being relevant in business. | :55:35. | :55:42. | |
When it gets to the nitty-gritty, that is when they want the linguist | :55:43. | :55:45. | |
with them because they want to make sure they can properly negotiate. | :55:46. | :55:52. | |
But most people aren't like sky in terms of working in an international | :55:53. | :55:56. | |
environment. Most of us just want to have a nice time on holiday and you | :55:57. | :56:01. | |
can do that by picking up the odd word. Hello, goodbye, where is the | :56:02. | :56:05. | |
bathroom, where was the Mirror 's speech. That is becoming easier for | :56:06. | :56:09. | |
people to do now with things like apps they have available and easy | :56:10. | :56:14. | |
methods of learning languages in a very interactive way. Sky, do you | :56:15. | :56:19. | |
find most people when you go into a business meeting, do they speak to | :56:20. | :56:26. | |
you in English? Yes. The most important thing as well is I have | :56:27. | :56:36. | |
worked in France and I can communicate in business French, but | :56:37. | :56:39. | |
it takes a long time and it is difficult. Being able to have a chat | :56:40. | :56:43. | |
in a different language doesn't help you. You need to get into the | :56:44. | :56:47. | |
nitty-gritty and what we have found is if it you and your members of | :56:48. | :56:54. | |
staff can't all get into the nitty-gritty, you end up working in | :56:55. | :57:01. | |
English using things like Skype and Google translate. Would you say to | :57:02. | :57:13. | |
the children in your family or children of friends, don't bother | :57:14. | :57:17. | |
learning another language? It depends on what you want to do. I | :57:18. | :57:22. | |
have looked at the statistics and the application for modern languages | :57:23. | :57:31. | |
has gone down. Computer sciences went up and studied engineering. In | :57:32. | :57:35. | |
terms of career prospects, I think if you were looking at languages for | :57:36. | :57:39. | |
career prospects then that is far more important. I think these stem | :57:40. | :57:46. | |
projects need pushing for more and for our economy it will be better. I | :57:47. | :57:53. | |
would rather might daughter learned philosophy rather than anything | :57:54. | :58:00. | |
else. Kirsty, what do you think? At the time when a child starts | :58:01. | :58:03. | |
learning languages, they don't know what career they will choose, so you | :58:04. | :58:08. | |
don't want to restrict them. It will open them up to deal with people | :58:09. | :58:12. | |
from different language backgrounds. What we offer is language modules to | :58:13. | :58:19. | |
people studying science or engineering because they might want | :58:20. | :58:23. | |
to work for one of the big German producers of cards. That is the | :58:24. | :58:27. | |
thing, sky. We take your points about learning engineering and | :58:28. | :58:32. | |
computer science, but can't there be a place for both? At the moment we | :58:33. | :58:42. | |
get 16-year-olds choose three projects for A-levels, which is | :58:43. | :58:52. | |
narrowing down the choices. That's not necessarily language, if the | :58:53. | :59:00. | |
education system as a whole. Thank you both very much for joining us. | :59:01. | :59:06. | |
Thank you for getting in touch as well. Jeff says that for a languages | :59:07. | :59:14. | |
are considered a hard subject and that is why children are ditching | :59:15. | :59:19. | |
them. Another reviewer says knowing another language is great because | :59:20. | :59:22. | |
you will know when people are insulting you behind your back. I | :59:23. | :59:26. | |
have always felt that foreign languages should be included. This | :59:27. | :59:34. | |
is from a retired teacher. Stay with us, the headlines are coming up at | :59:35. | :59:36. | |
nine o'clock. Hello, this is Breakfast, with | :59:37. | :00:15. | |
Roger Johnson and Naga Munchetty. Marvellous Mo Farah wins his tenth | :00:16. | :00:17. | |
straight athletics gold medal. He is a one-man world superpower, | :00:18. | :00:22. | |
it is gold for Farah! He stormed his way | :00:23. | :00:27. | |
to the 10,000m title, much to the delight of | :00:28. | :00:29. | |
the home crowd and his children. Mo wasn't the only star | :00:30. | :00:34. | |
out on the track. Legend sprinter Usain Bolt began | :00:35. | :00:44. | |
his bid for a 12th world title. Good morning, | :00:45. | :01:03. | |
it's Saturday 5th August. A British computer expert will | :01:04. | :01:07. | |
spend the weekend in a US jail, after being accused | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
of creating software Ireland's first openly gay | :01:11. | :01:12. | |
Prime Minister will attend a Pride event | :01:13. | :01:19. | |
in Belfast later, as he warns the "clock | :01:20. | :01:21. | |
is ticking" on Brexit talks. We'll hear how eight-year-old Genie | :01:22. | :01:31. | |
has scooped an award for supporting her owner, Evie, | :01:32. | :01:39. | |
through chemotherapy. Good morning, some sunshine today, | :01:40. | :01:58. | |
quite a lot of cloud, some showers, some quite heavy with the odd rumble | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
of thunder. Thanks, Jay! | :02:03. | :02:04. | |
Mo Farah has described last night's 10,000m final | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
at the World Athletics Championships as one of the toughest | :02:09. | :02:10. | |
The 34-year-old, who is due to retire from the track | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
at the end of this season, has now won | :02:15. | :02:16. | |
Earlier in the evening, Usain Bolt also began the defence | :02:17. | :02:24. | |
of his 100m title, as he competes professionally | :02:25. | :02:26. | |
Our sports news correspondent Natalie Pirks | :02:27. | :02:28. | |
It has become a familiar scene here. The smile, the anthem, the gold. | :02:29. | :02:42. | |
But this win was arguably the greatest of them all. | :02:43. | :02:44. | |
His competitors went off hard, working together | :02:45. | :02:47. | |
As Mo tried to whip the crowd into a frenzy, his rivals kicked on. | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
Down the final straight, the nation and his wife | :02:52. | :02:58. | |
It was his fastest time in six years. | :02:59. | :03:04. | |
The training had all been worth it - to be able to celebrate | :03:05. | :03:11. | |
with the most important people in his life. | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
I got a bit emotional at the start, then I had to get in the zone, | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
and, yeah, it's just been, you know, amazing. | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
He's not the only one gearing up for goodbye. | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
Lapping up the London love, Usain Bolt has not been | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
lightning quick this season, but then he hasn't yet needed to be. | :03:33. | :03:35. | |
COMMENTATOR: Here he comes, and there he goes. | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
He is aiming for his 12th world title, and London loves him. | :03:40. | :03:49. | |
They always show me so much love, and I really appreciate it. | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
This track has witnessed yet another piece of Mo Farah history. | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
His tenth major global title, his most impressive yet. | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
This stadium was built to leave a legacy. | :04:03. | :04:04. | |
Natalie Pirks, BBC News, at the London Stadium. | :04:05. | :04:14. | |
And there it is, just a few minutes now before events begin in the | :04:15. | :04:21. | |
London Stadium this morning at the world athletics championships. | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
Inside, final preparations are being made. You can see a little bit of | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
rainwater on the track, there has been light rain during the course of | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
the morning, so they will be dealing with that. We have heard they are | :04:33. | :04:42. | |
trying the -- drying the seats. We will find out what is coming up and | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
speak to Jo Pavey in the next few minutes here on Breakfast. | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
Prosecutors have told a court in Las Vegas that a British computer | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
expert has admitted creating software that steals bank details. | :04:53. | :04:54. | |
Marcus Hutchins, aged 23 and from Devon, will plead not guilty. | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
Mr Hutchins was praised earlier this year for helping to limit | :05:00. | :05:02. | |
a global cyber attack that brought down several NHS computer networks. | :05:03. | :05:05. | |
From Las Vegas, our North America correspondent James Cook reports. | :05:06. | :05:12. | |
Marcus Hutchins appeared in a Las Vegas courtroom. | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
The prosecution said he admitted writing computer code designed | :05:18. | :05:19. | |
to steal banking details and also claimed there was evidence | :05:20. | :05:21. | |
that he discussed how to split the profits with an accomplice. | :05:22. | :05:30. | |
But his lawyer says he denies all the charges against him. | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
How is he doing? He's holding up and in good spirits. | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
The family, I think, support and the friends' support | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
and his co-workers and the community have been tremendously | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
Indeed, many fellow cyber security experts regard Marcus Hutchins | :05:44. | :05:51. | |
as a hero for stopping an attack which caused chaos | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
for the NHS and spread to 150 countries around the world. | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
as he was about to fly home to the UK. | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
He is due in court in Wisconsin on Tuesday. | :06:03. | :06:04. | |
Until then, the judge here ordered his release on bail, | :06:05. | :06:06. | |
subject to conditions which include surrendering his passport | :06:07. | :06:08. | |
Marcus Hutchins appeared in court in Las Vegas | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
right at the end of the working week. | :06:13. | :06:14. | |
His lawyers had just a few minutes to scramble together his bail money, | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
but by the time they had done so, the court had closed, | :06:18. | :06:20. | |
which means we will have to spend the weekend in jail. | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
The United States has officially informed the United Nations | :06:24. | :06:32. | |
that it's withdrawing from the Paris climate agreement. | :06:33. | :06:35. | |
In June, President Donald Trump drew international condemnation | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
when he announced the decision to leave the agreement. | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
It had been drawn up by nearly 200 nations | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
to curb greenhouse gas emissions in 2015. | :06:47. | :06:47. | |
The State Department says the US will continue to participate | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
in climate-change meetings until the withdrawal | :06:51. | :06:51. | |
The Irish Prime Minister, Leo Varadkar, | :06:52. | :06:58. | |
continues his first official visit to Northern Ireland today. | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
He'll attend a Pride event in Belfast later. | :07:02. | :07:04. | |
Yesterday he focused on Brexit, suggesting that a bilateral | :07:05. | :07:07. | |
customs union could be the best way for the UK to deal with the issue | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
of Northern Ireland's border with the Republic. | :07:12. | :07:13. | |
Our Ireland correspondent Chris Buckler explains. | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
The Irish border has become a divisive issue | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
The scores of completely open roads that connect Northern Ireland | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
and the Republic carry huge amounts of traffic and trade, | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
and on his first official visit north of the border | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
as Ireland's Prime Minister, Leo Varadkar insisted that | :07:32. | :07:34. | |
the free movement of people, goods and services should continue here | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
Perhaps the biggest challenge for our generation is Brexit. | :07:38. | :07:46. | |
Every single aspect of life in Northern Ireland | :07:47. | :07:48. | |
We will do all that we can in Brussels, London and Dublin | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
to achieve the best outcome for everybody on this island. | :07:55. | :07:57. | |
To protect our peace, our freedom, our prosperity. | :07:58. | :08:08. | |
Leo Varadkar has also been meeting Northern Ireland's main political | :08:09. | :08:11. | |
parties, including the DUP, who supported Brexit. | :08:12. | :08:12. | |
They have taken exception to some of his recent comments | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
that were critical of those he called the "hard Brexiteers". | :08:16. | :08:17. | |
Some of his party members have also questioned his decision | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
to attend and event this morning as part of Belfast Pride. | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
for the introduction of same-sex marriage in Northern Ireland, | :08:26. | :08:28. | |
which in the past the DUP has blocked. | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
Leo Varadkar is openly gay and campaigned during | :08:34. | :08:36. | |
the Republic's marriage equality referendum two years ago. | :08:37. | :08:38. | |
But the Democratic Unionists have suggested | :08:39. | :08:40. | |
he should not interfere with social issues within Northern Ireland. | :08:41. | :08:43. | |
Brexit is, however, expected to have an impact on both sides | :08:44. | :08:46. | |
of the border, and as a result the Irish government | :08:47. | :08:48. | |
are likely to remain very vocal as the UK continues | :08:49. | :08:51. | |
to negotiate its departure from the EU. | :08:52. | :09:01. | |
After record-breaking temperatures across Europe this week, | :09:02. | :09:07. | |
scientists are warning that the number of people killed | :09:08. | :09:09. | |
could increase 50-fold by the end of this century. | :09:10. | :09:12. | |
A study in the Lancet Planetary Health journal suggests | :09:13. | :09:14. | |
that heatwaves alone could account for 100,000 deaths a year. | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
Researchers in Italy say urgent action is needed | :09:18. | :09:19. | |
to curb the effects of climate change. | :09:20. | :09:26. | |
Rail passengers face three weeks of disruption from today | :09:27. | :09:31. | |
as refurbishment work begins at the UK's busiest train station. | :09:32. | :09:33. | |
Ten platforms will be closed at London Waterloo | :09:34. | :09:36. | |
until the end of August as part of an ?800 million revamp. | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
Simon Jones is at the station for us now. | :09:41. | :09:47. | |
Simon, it is a station I know very well, Waterloo, very busy - this is | :09:48. | :09:54. | |
going to cause quite a bit of disruption for people travelling up | :09:55. | :09:57. | |
from the south-west of England, isn't it? Yeah, the warning is it | :09:58. | :10:05. | |
will cause huge disruption, and that is because 99 million journeys are | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
made each year to and from this station, so when you take out a lot | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
of the capacity, it is going to have a big impact. If you look at the | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
platform here, a pretty unusual sight at this time of the morning, | :10:18. | :10:22. | |
no passengers at all, because ten platforms have been taken out of | :10:23. | :10:26. | |
service. That is because they are planning to extend four of them to | :10:27. | :10:30. | |
increase capacity at this station over the next three weeks or so. | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
Now, if you take a look at at the boards, you can see trains are still | :10:35. | :10:39. | |
running, but the warning is that there will be much reduced capacity | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
over the following period. Now, passengers here are just trying to | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
make sense of it all. The warning from Network Rail is, if you don't | :10:48. | :10:52. | |
need to come to this station, try and keep away. They have even been | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
telling people to take their holidays over the next three weeks | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
if they can because there will be queues at the station, trains will | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
be busier than usual, and there are going to be far fewer trains. They | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
have got information points here, they have brought in around 10,000 | :11:09. | :11:12. | |
people to offer advice to customers to try to keep things running | :11:13. | :11:17. | |
smoothly. Simon, thank you very much indeed, | :11:18. | :11:20. | |
Simon Jones live at Waterloo Station in London this morning. | :11:21. | :11:21. | |
How do you feel about Alligators? Don't like them, same as | :11:22. | :11:31. | |
crocodiles, scary! Little ones? | :11:32. | :11:32. | |
They grow into big ones! An alligator has been spotted | :11:33. | :11:34. | |
relaxing by a lake in Somerset. The two foot long reptile | :11:35. | :11:37. | |
was seen getting out of the water at Chew Valley reservoir | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
by a Bristol Water engineer. A spokesman could not | :11:41. | :11:43. | |
confirm the species, but said a staff member "bumped | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
into it" doing a routine survey. It was captured | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
and put into a container It does make you wonder how many | :11:53. | :12:06. | |
others might be around, because people have exotic pets, alligators, | :12:07. | :12:12. | |
snakes. I don't wonder about it at all! | :12:13. | :12:15. | |
Veteran long-distance runner Jo Pavey will be presented | :12:16. | :12:17. | |
with her first World Championship medal later today, | :12:18. | :12:20. | |
ten years after competing in the 10,000m in Osaka. | :12:21. | :12:24. | |
Jo has been upgraded from fourth place after a Turkish athlete, | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
who originally won silver, was disqualified for doping offences. | :12:29. | :12:30. | |
We're delighted to say Jo joins us now from the London Stadium. | :12:31. | :12:37. | |
Jo Pavey, so great to have you with us one BBC Breakfast, good morning | :12:38. | :12:44. | |
to you. How do you feel about getting this medal, your first World | :12:45. | :12:51. | |
Championship, ten years on? Yeah, I am absolutely thrilled and honoured | :12:52. | :12:54. | |
to have the chance to receive the medal in this amazing stadium in | :12:55. | :12:58. | |
front of a home crowd, I feel very grateful to everyone who has made | :12:59. | :13:03. | |
that happen. Of course, it is a bittersweet moment, when I think | :13:04. | :13:06. | |
back to that moment ten years ago now, when I laid on the track | :13:07. | :13:10. | |
totally exhausted, feeling like I had let my friends and family down | :13:11. | :13:13. | |
and everyone who supported me, tried so desperately hard to maintain a | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
medal position but could not quite do not. Afterwards facing everyone | :13:19. | :13:22. | |
saying, I am sorry, I couldn't quite do it on the day, whereas actually | :13:23. | :13:26. | |
it should have been a day of celebrating, being proud to get a | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
medal for my country, instead of a day of disappointment. But this | :13:31. | :13:33. | |
definitely makes up for it in a great way, I have my family and my | :13:34. | :13:38. | |
children here, who were not born on the day I did my race. What better | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
place to receive it, a home championships? I am very lucky. You | :13:43. | :13:46. | |
are not lucky, you worked hard for it! At the moment, it feels like we | :13:47. | :13:54. | |
can't get away from the issue of doping in athletics, Usain Bolt said | :13:55. | :13:57. | |
that athletics needs to be concerned if this isn't addressed, yesterday | :13:58. | :14:03. | |
and breakfast we spoke to Ed Warner on the programme. We are going to | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
play a sound bite of what he said about doping, I would love to get | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
your reaction. In any walk of life, you find cheats around every corner, | :14:13. | :14:17. | |
2200 athletes here, will all be clean? I doubt it, but are the | :14:18. | :14:24. | |
authorities working hard to read -- root them out? Just yesterday two | :14:25. | :14:31. | |
Ukrainian sprinters were pulled out. The sport has a fight on its hands, | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
I think it is gradually winning the battle, but it is going to be a | :14:36. | :14:40. | |
long-term process. It is frustrating that this seems to be a long-term | :14:41. | :14:44. | |
process, do think it could be sped up in any way? I think you are | :14:45. | :14:48. | |
right, it is a long-term process, there are still going to be cheats | :14:49. | :14:53. | |
in the sport, unfortunately, but things are improving. It is | :14:54. | :14:57. | |
fantastic we are having this reallocation of medals, showing that | :14:58. | :15:01. | |
technology is improving, samples can be reanalysed because of the | :15:02. | :15:04. | |
improvements in the technology to do that, and cheats can never relax, | :15:05. | :15:09. | |
they know that technology is improving, things are going in the | :15:10. | :15:12. | |
right direction, but unfortunately we are still seeing some | :15:13. | :15:16. | |
performances that you may have to question, but things are going in | :15:17. | :15:21. | |
the right direction. A few years ago we weren't even talking about | :15:22. | :15:24. | |
doping, but clean athletes were frustrated that nothing was | :15:25. | :15:27. | |
happening, we had to keep facing the media to say we could not do enough | :15:28. | :15:32. | |
on the day, but you had suspicions. At least now clean athletes feel | :15:33. | :15:35. | |
that things are being done, but there is a lot of work to do, but at | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
least things are going in the right direction. It is a great decision | :15:40. | :15:43. | |
that it has been made, reallocating medals on a proper stage. I heard an | :15:44. | :15:49. | |
athlete saying that he got his given in a car park a few years back, and | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
now they're making a big deal of it, it is good. There is a long way to | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
go, hopefully we can get a brighter future for the sport. You all the | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
performances last night, how the crowd have got behind it, what a | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
great sport it is, we need to protect that and let it go from | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
strength to strength. We were hearing from the outgoing chairman | :16:11. | :16:19. | |
of UK earlier. Let's revel in how well Team GB is doing at the moment, | :16:20. | :16:24. | |
shall we? Mo Farah said this was one of the toughest races of his career, | :16:25. | :16:29. | |
I know I was screaming at the TV when I thought, hold on, people are | :16:30. | :16:33. | |
getting at a go of him, closing in on him. Absolutely phenomenal, | :16:34. | :16:40. | |
no-one is good enough to beat him, they try, he can win the race | :16:41. | :16:44. | |
whether it is fast or slow, whether there are surges, and the Ugandans | :16:45. | :16:51. | |
and Kenyans tried to push the pace, only three seconds off his personal | :16:52. | :16:55. | |
best to win the race. When he is in demand with only a couple of laps to | :16:56. | :17:00. | |
go, his rivals no they have not done enough. The whole way round, working | :17:01. | :17:04. | |
the crowd, it was absolutely unbelievable to see how well he | :17:05. | :17:09. | |
performed, just brilliant to see. The crowd were there to watch, and | :17:10. | :17:15. | |
he gets down, phenomenal athlete. Jo, tell us what it is like in these | :17:16. | :17:19. | |
Davidian, we were talking to Jess earlier, it is quite wet, the track | :17:20. | :17:27. | |
conditions are different. -- tell us what it is like in the stadium. What | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
are the preparations? How does it change your way of thinking as | :17:33. | :17:35. | |
weather conditions change? Laura Muir is competing today, what will | :17:36. | :17:43. | |
our athletes be thinking about? It seems to be brightening up now, but | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
weather conditions do have a part to play. Some athletes like a wet | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
track, I remember Haile Gebrselassie used to ask for the track to be | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
watered before he did world record attempts, but I never necessarily | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
liked running in the rain. But it does factor into it, a lot of it is | :18:01. | :18:04. | |
in the warm up, making sure you don't get wet and cold. The worst | :18:05. | :18:08. | |
championships weather-wise with the Commonwealth Games, we were so wet, | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
and I didn't bring a change of socks, but unfortunately the race | :18:14. | :18:19. | |
went out a! The weather conditions do affect it, it affects | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
preparation, but these athletes are so experienced, and they know how to | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
deal with certain things. When you are talking about the British | :18:29. | :18:31. | |
athletes, that is something we are all really proud of, and the head of | :18:32. | :18:36. | |
British athletics talked about it, it is not just about what medals we | :18:37. | :18:40. | |
will get, because we have got so many young athletes in the team, it | :18:41. | :18:44. | |
is a chance for them to be showcased, the next generation | :18:45. | :18:47. | |
coming through, people who will go on to have bright careers and be the | :18:48. | :18:51. | |
stars of the future. And how well they performed yesterday, the three | :18:52. | :18:54. | |
guys in the 100 metres got through, all the girls in the 1500, people | :18:55. | :18:59. | |
with lifetime bests, and it was a great night for the team. You said | :19:00. | :19:08. | |
it is brightening up, I think it will brighten up just enough so the | :19:09. | :19:10. | |
sun glistens on your bronze medal later today, we wish you well, do | :19:11. | :19:14. | |
enjoy receiving it. Thanks for joining us one Breakfast. | :19:15. | :19:18. | |
So nice that Jo is getting the medal in front of athletic fans in the | :19:19. | :19:23. | |
stadium. Iwan Thomas got upgraded to gold in the World Championships, | :19:24. | :19:26. | |
because of a drive failure, and he was given his medal in a car park, | :19:27. | :19:29. | |
not quite making up for it. So Jo Pavey says it is to brighten | :19:30. | :19:38. | |
up, but we should listen to Jay Wynne, find out what it is like for | :19:39. | :19:40. | |
the rest of the country. This picture was taken by one of our | :19:41. | :19:56. | |
Weather Watchers on Merseyside not so long ago, so a mixture of sunny | :19:57. | :19:59. | |
spells and showers, but the showers today could be heavy with the odd | :20:00. | :20:05. | |
rumble of thunder, we have already had some in Wales, never | :20:06. | :20:08. | |
particularly warm with the north-westerly breeze. There is some | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
sunshine, a breeze from the north-west, but showers moving from | :20:12. | :20:16. | |
West to East, the Midlands, East Anglia, the south-east, rumbles of | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
thunder to go with those, some hail mixed in as well. Scattered showers | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
further north, dry, bright intervals, but turning grey at | :20:25. | :20:29. | |
times, rain will follow. In the north-east of England, you're more | :20:30. | :20:32. | |
likely to see some showers, sunshine in the north-west this afternoon. In | :20:33. | :20:39. | |
Wales and the south-west, largely dry, good spells of sunshine. The | :20:40. | :20:42. | |
densely heavy showers through the Midlands, East Anglia, the London | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
area. Top temperature of 21 degrees. There is a risk of a shower or two | :20:48. | :20:53. | |
at the London Stadium on into the afternoon, drier and brighter spells | :20:54. | :20:58. | |
as well. The showers that we see tend to fade away this evening and | :20:59. | :21:01. | |
overnight, the skies were clear for many, but not in Northern Ireland, | :21:02. | :21:05. | |
grey on the way, a bit of breeze as well. Where we have clear skies, | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
much of Scotland, northern England, through Wales, we will see | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
temperatures dipping into single figures in the rural parts of | :21:16. | :21:18. | |
Scotland, a touch of brass crossed first thing. Cloud amounts will | :21:19. | :21:24. | |
increase through the day, wetter weather to be had in Northern | :21:25. | :21:28. | |
Ireland, that moves through into Scotland, the north-west of England | :21:29. | :21:32. | |
and the north-west of Wales, but much of the south-east will hang on | :21:33. | :21:34. | |
to the bright weather into the afternoon. 16 or 17 with rain in | :21:35. | :21:41. | |
Glasgow. Stays and settled into the early part of next week, cloudy at | :21:42. | :21:48. | |
times, but hopefully things will finally settled down later in | :21:49. | :21:53. | |
We all know that pets are priceless, but you might agree that there's | :21:54. | :21:58. | |
something really quite special about one particular feline friend. | :21:59. | :22:00. | |
Eight-year-old rescue cat Genie has been named | :22:01. | :22:02. | |
National Cat of the Year after supporting her young | :22:03. | :22:04. | |
owner, Evie, through treatment for bone cancer. | :22:05. | :22:06. | |
She will eat if she wants to and will tell you if | :22:07. | :22:23. | |
That was until her 12-year-old owner, Evie, | :22:24. | :22:26. | |
When I was diagnosed, she was pulling my legs | :22:27. | :22:32. | |
and would sit at my feet, she would gently massage my legs. | :22:33. | :22:35. | |
Genie is doing her claw thingy on me. | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
I think she did, because she was coming around | :22:40. | :22:54. | |
this leg in particular, which is the one that | :22:55. | :22:56. | |
Oh, you know something's wrong with that leg, don't you? | :22:57. | :23:01. | |
And this is the story that has just won her a National Cat Aaward. | :23:02. | :23:05. | |
As well as Cat of the Year, she won Outstanding Rescue Pet. | :23:06. | :23:09. | |
It was really good, we had photos taken. | :23:10. | :23:13. | |
I guess the judges saw what I see in Genie, an amazing cat. | :23:14. | :23:25. | |
Every since the diagnosis, she has really been a house cat, | :23:26. | :23:28. | |
sitting at Evie's feet, going around her legs. | :23:29. | :23:31. | |
Helping around the house, following her, | :23:32. | :23:33. | |
even going to the toilet and going upstairs. | :23:34. | :23:36. | |
It was quite a change in personality. | :23:37. | :23:39. | |
I think she made a massive difference. | :23:40. | :23:43. | |
Without her, I would have a lot more dark days, she just gave me | :23:44. | :23:49. | |
that glimpse of hope that I needed to get through this. | :23:50. | :23:52. | |
Evie is now finished her course of chemotherapy and is being | :23:53. | :23:55. | |
Genie continues to keep a close eye on her as well. | :23:56. | :24:13. | |
You are watching Breakfast from BBC News, time to look at the papers. | :24:14. | :24:21. | |
Peter Bradshaw is here, good morning to you. You have been taking a look | :24:22. | :24:28. | |
through the papers, playing roulette with people's lives. Very good story | :24:29. | :24:37. | |
in the Mail, these fixed odds betting terminals, kind of glorified | :24:38. | :24:40. | |
arcade machines, and they have terrifyingly high rates, and you can | :24:41. | :24:48. | |
bet, win, lose hundreds and hundreds of pounds in a few minutes. There | :24:49. | :24:52. | |
was a big controversy of the number of them opening, you can only have a | :24:53. | :24:56. | |
set number in each betting shop, so they were opening more shops. I have | :24:57. | :25:02. | |
the rather quaint idea of betting shops, people betting on premiership | :25:03. | :25:04. | |
football or the Grand National, but the big-money is in betting shops | :25:05. | :25:11. | |
full of these terminals where real crack cocaine profits are to be | :25:12. | :25:15. | |
made. This excellent story suggests the Department of Culture, Media and | :25:16. | :25:19. | |
Sport wants to get tough with these machines, quite substantially lower | :25:20. | :25:25. | |
the maximum bet to about ?2. But the story is that Whitehall, in | :25:26. | :25:28. | |
particular the Chancellor, doesn't like this idea, simply because of | :25:29. | :25:32. | |
the tax take from these things. If that is true, that is an | :25:33. | :25:36. | |
extraordinary admission, really, because as they say, these are | :25:37. | :25:42. | |
hard-core gambling machines. These are people who are gambling with | :25:43. | :25:46. | |
money that they don't have, frankly. And so it is very, very worrying. I | :25:47. | :25:51. | |
think it is a good story. Inside that matter which paper is this? In | :25:52. | :26:01. | |
the Telegraph, I don't use Siri, I switched and off, but I was with a | :26:02. | :26:04. | |
friend, it is amazing what he was doing with it in the car, getting it | :26:05. | :26:09. | |
to play songs. This is a new addiction, not in my life, but for a | :26:10. | :26:16. | |
lot of people, these talking butlers. But you are embarrassed to | :26:17. | :26:22. | |
do it in public, Apple's Siri, Amazon's Alexa, you can speak to | :26:23. | :26:26. | |
them, and they will literally speak back, but people are increasingly | :26:27. | :26:30. | |
embarrassed to do so in public. It has become the dirty little secret, | :26:31. | :26:35. | |
people are embarrassed to say, Siri, could you tell me what is the | :26:36. | :26:41. | |
European Union? They will say embarrassing things, and we are an | :26:42. | :26:44. | |
barrister talked to our little friends, and people will lock | :26:45. | :26:48. | |
themselves in their car and say, Siri, tell me about this thing. So | :26:49. | :26:52. | |
they are embarrassed about what they need to know, not talking to it? I | :26:53. | :26:59. | |
think they are embarrassed to say, Siri, something so silly about using | :27:00. | :27:05. | |
its name. At least when you type into Google, you just type in the | :27:06. | :27:10. | |
thing you need to know, but saying, Siri, mild friend, you look so | :27:11. | :27:16. | |
silly. It has become a dysfunctional mannerism to stop and lock yourself | :27:17. | :27:24. | |
away, Siri, please tell me! One last one, I don't know how often you eat | :27:25. | :27:30. | |
oysters, I have only had them once, with Matt Tebbutt, in Saturday | :27:31. | :27:32. | |
Kitchen, who is coming up in a minute. Very high risk, isn't it? Do | :27:33. | :27:39. | |
you like oysters? Seafood doesn't agree with me. It is something you | :27:40. | :27:46. | |
are quite cautious about, only eat it when it is properly prepared. In | :27:47. | :27:50. | |
France, there is a new type of vending machine, not just cigarettes | :27:51. | :27:58. | |
or chocolate, but oysters, a machine on Ile de Re, you put your money in, | :27:59. | :28:04. | |
and they are putting fresh oysters in. It is as good a place as any. I | :28:05. | :28:12. | |
am not sure if this is on a coil, like Mars bars, you put your money | :28:13. | :28:17. | |
in, Klug, it lands with a crash. I am terrified of oysters anyway, but | :28:18. | :28:22. | |
the idea of getting them from a vending machine, book yourself two | :28:23. | :28:29. | |
weeks in hospital! They are high risk, and the first time, the only | :28:30. | :28:33. | |
time was with Matt Tebbutt, shall we get is opinion? Peter, thank you so | :28:34. | :28:40. | |
much. You are taking over at ten o'clock, Matt, would you go to a | :28:41. | :28:45. | |
vending machine for oysters to be no, not unless I wanted to lose | :28:46. | :28:51. | |
weight! It might be useful, then! That is not very nice! I was going | :28:52. | :28:55. | |
to compliment you on your glasses today! I would stay well away from | :28:56. | :29:00. | |
that! On with the show, our special guest today has escaped her chains | :29:01. | :29:06. | |
in Game Of Thrones, the brilliant actress, Gemma Whelan, are you | :29:07. | :29:11. | |
excited, you watch the show, don't you? I do watch, yes. By mum was | :29:12. | :29:17. | |
watching, hello! One of the few things she can watch you in! She | :29:18. | :29:24. | |
does boldly watch everything I do. You are facing food heaven or food | :29:25. | :29:29. | |
hell. Heaven would be trout, prawns, coriander, coconut, please! Help? I | :29:30. | :29:37. | |
can barely say it, cook dabbles, creamy, fruity pudding deserts. And | :29:38. | :29:47. | |
this is not a pregnancy thing. This is a long-standing problem! I don't | :29:48. | :29:52. | |
think you can cure me of my problem with cooked apples. First time on | :29:53. | :30:01. | |
Saturday kitchen for animal macro. I am doing marinated monkfish cheeks. | :30:02. | :30:05. | |
And Dan Doherty, what can we look forward to? And don't forget, you | :30:06. | :30:18. | |
guys at home are in charge of choosing food heaven and food hell, | :30:19. | :30:19. | |
see You are a handsome brilliant chef. | :30:20. | :30:32. | |
Does that make up for the oyster comment? How do you. Have a good | :30:33. | :30:43. | |
show, see you later. Stay with us, the headlines are on the way. | :30:44. | :31:14. | |

of this generation. The United States has officially | :32:26. | :32:36. | |
informed the United Nations that it's withdrawing | :32:37. | :32:38. | |
from the Paris Climate agreement. In June, President Donald Trump drew | :32:39. | :32:40. | |
international condemnation when he announced the decision | :32:41. | :32:42. | |
to leave the agreement - it had been drawn up by nearly 200 | :32:43. | :32:44. | |

long. Those are the main | :34:26. | :34:25. | |
stories this morning. After a thrilling opening | :34:26. | :34:35. | |
night at the athletics World Championships, | :34:36. | :34:37. | |
let's find out what's Jess is at the London Stadium | :34:38. | :34:38. | |
for us this morning. What a privilege it is to be here at | :34:39. | :34:47. | |
the London stadium. Final preparations are getting underway. | :34:48. | :34:50. | |
Less than 30 minutes until it all kicks off again. The fans are taking | :34:51. | :34:55. | |
their seats. How lucky for them that they have tickets to an action | :34:56. | :34:59. | |
packed day. So many Brits for them to be cheering on. Usain Bolt will | :35:00. | :35:09. | |
be back on the track and Katarina Johnson Thompson will be taking her | :35:10. | :35:13. | |
place on the start line for the hundred and ten -- for the 100 | :35:14. | :35:22. | |
metres hurdle. Let me remind you of what a magical day in the stadium it | :35:23. | :35:23. | |
was last night. Mo Farah was back in the stadium | :35:24. | :35:30. | |
where his feats made Five years on from his double | :35:31. | :35:33. | |
Olympic triumph in London, he won the 10,000 metres world | :35:34. | :35:36. | |
title for the third time. It was a tough race, | :35:37. | :35:39. | |
he held off a determined challenge from his rivals and survived | :35:40. | :35:42. | |
a couple of stumbles on a blistering final lap before winning it | :35:43. | :35:47. | |
with his trademark sprint You gave us a scare | :35:48. | :35:49. | |
going around the bend, tripping twice and stepping | :35:50. | :35:58. | |
out of your lane. You know what it is like to | :35:59. | :36:04. | |
double up, you have four days You have to go through | :36:05. | :36:12. | |
a hit for that one. How do you do that now, | :36:13. | :36:16. | |
block this out or enjoy it It is a moment that is done now, | :36:17. | :36:18. | |
I have to get back to the basics. That is what it takes | :36:19. | :36:26. | |
if I want to come back The crowd had already been treated | :36:27. | :36:30. | |
to Usain Bolt's first appearance at his final championships | :36:31. | :36:36. | |
before he retires. He recovered from a dreadful start | :36:37. | :36:37. | |
to win his 100-metres heat and reach the semi-finals, | :36:38. | :36:40. | |
but he wasn't happy with his run I am not really fond | :36:41. | :36:43. | |
of these blocks. I think they are the worst | :36:44. | :36:46. | |
blocks I have experienced. I have to get the start | :36:47. | :36:48. | |
together, I can't keep doing What is it about the | :36:49. | :36:58. | |
block in particular? When I did my warm up, | :36:59. | :37:02. | |
it pushed back and fell It is not as sturdy or as firm | :37:03. | :37:06. | |
as what I am used to. Reece Prescod ran a personal best | :37:07. | :37:18. | |
to reach the semi-finals in his first World Championships - | :37:19. | :37:20. | |
he said he loved being In fact all three British | :37:21. | :37:23. | |
sprinters made it through, so we'll see Prescod, | :37:24. | :37:27. | |
James Desaolu and CJ Ujah Also in action will be Laura Muir, | :37:28. | :37:29. | |
who was inspired to take her athletics career to the next level | :37:30. | :37:36. | |
when she watched London She goes in the 1,500 metres | :37:37. | :37:38. | |
semi-finals, along with Jess Judd, Joe Pavey says it is bittersweet | :37:39. | :38:05. | |
receiving her medal ten years after the fact. She spoke earlier about | :38:06. | :38:14. | |
the issue of doping being tackled. Things are going in the right | :38:15. | :38:21. | |
direction whereas a few years ago the clean athletes were frustrated | :38:22. | :38:24. | |
that nothing was happening. We had to keep facing the media and we felt | :38:25. | :38:30. | |
disappointed because there were suspicions. At least now clean | :38:31. | :38:33. | |
athletes feel that things are being done, but there was a long way to go | :38:34. | :38:35. | |
there was a lot of to do. Now, let's look at the rest | :38:36. | :38:37. | |
of the sport - and it's delicately balanced after Day One of the Fourth | :38:38. | :38:40. | |
and Final Test against England captain Joe Root made | :38:41. | :38:43. | |
a half-century for his 10th Test match in a row - | :38:44. | :38:47. | |
and Ben Stokes hit 58, but he was England will resume later this | :38:48. | :38:50. | |
morning on 260 for 6. Well, you always want 400 | :38:51. | :38:55. | |
in the first innings I think, having lost Ben just | :38:56. | :38:57. | |
at the close, if we can get 350 I think we would take | :38:58. | :39:02. | |
that right now. 350 plus, definitely, | :39:03. | :39:04. | |
you always want to try Maybe that last wicket | :39:05. | :39:07. | |
might knock a few off it. Paris St-Germain fans will have | :39:08. | :39:15. | |
to wait a little longer before they see World Record signing | :39:16. | :39:18. | |
Neymar in action. The world's most expensive | :39:19. | :39:20. | |
footballer, will miss his side's first match of the season today | :39:21. | :39:22. | |
after his documents failed The Brazilian forward will though be | :39:23. | :39:24. | |
presented to supporters before The English domestic football season | :39:25. | :39:28. | |
is already under way. Sunderland began life back | :39:29. | :39:38. | |
in the Championship with a 1-1 After Bradley Johnson | :39:39. | :39:41. | |
had put Derby ahead, Lewis Grabban equalised | :39:42. | :39:44. | |
from the penalty spot. Elsewhere Nottingham Forest | :39:45. | :39:45. | |
beat Millwall 1-0. The Scottish Premiership | :39:46. | :39:47. | |
season starts today, champions Celtic play Hearts | :39:48. | :39:48. | |
in the lunchtime kick off. English golfer Georgia Hall is two | :39:49. | :40:07. | |
shots off the pace at the half-way stage of the Women's British Open | :40:08. | :40:10. | |

of South Korea, who made an eagle Leeds Rhinos' hopes of a top four | :40:13. | :40:17. | |
finish in Super League were boosted with a 32-16 victory over | :40:18. | :40:29. | |
Wigan Warriors in the Super 8s. Elsewhere there were wins for Hull, | :40:30. | :40:32. | |
Huddersfield and Warrington Wolves. We're saying goodbye | :40:33. | :40:51. | |
to Mo on the track and But how can their careers help | :40:52. | :40:54. | |
inspire the next generation? I went to meet up with some children | :40:55. | :41:00. | |
on an estate in London giving athletics a go | :41:01. | :41:03. | |
for the very first time. This is not your typical | :41:04. | :41:11. | |
athletics venue, but for these young | :41:12. | :41:15. | |
people it is the stage I'm in West London with these young | :41:16. | :41:17. | |
people who have seen the stars on the screen and now they are | :41:18. | :41:30. | |
going to try the sport up for Who better to give some tips | :41:31. | :41:34. | |
than a European gold medallist. You can meet new friends | :41:35. | :41:40. | |
from the estate that have met on a normal | :41:41. | :41:43. | |
day and something to communicate with each other, | :41:44. | :41:46. | |
make it fun and enjoyable. What kind of activities | :41:47. | :41:56. | |
have we got going on I saw some javelin throwing | :41:57. | :41:59. | |
and they seemed pretty good at it. We had a hurdle relay | :42:00. | :42:03. | |
earlier which I took which is teaching them to do | :42:04. | :42:06. | |
the relay properly from grassroots so by the time they are seniors | :42:07. | :42:14. | |
or teenagers they will have the key | :42:15. | :42:16. | |
skills to be part of a relay team. These World Championships will see | :42:17. | :42:20. | |
some of the biggest stars in athletics competing on the track | :42:21. | :42:23. | |
and there is none bigger Normally what happens is they might | :42:24. | :42:26. | |
watch the Olympics and watch Usain Bolt and Mo Farah and | :42:27. | :42:39. | |
there's nowhere for them about it until four years later | :42:40. | :42:41. | |
when we have another Olympics We wanted to capture | :42:42. | :42:45. | |
the spirit at the right time. Sometimes we need projects like this | :42:46. | :42:48. | |
to bring people together. These lot are eight years | :42:49. | :42:54. | |
old and will probably be They might go on to | :42:55. | :42:56. | |
take part in athletics and do well, but more than that, | :42:57. | :42:59. | |
it is creating somewhere locally Why do you keep coming | :43:00. | :43:03. | |
back to be sessions? Because it gets me pumped | :43:04. | :43:07. | |
and if I am sad, it They have tried athletics | :43:08. | :43:19. | |
for themselves and now watch the pros in action live at | :43:20. | :43:22. | |
the World Championships through this project and who knows how | :43:23. | :43:33. | |
many will be able to go So important that legacy is created | :43:34. | :43:46. | |
from sport events like this. Here, the hurdles are being put out and | :43:47. | :43:51. | |
Katarina Thomson Johnson will soon be beginning her first event in the | :43:52. | :43:55. | |
women's heptathlon. Day two is about to get underway. It certainly is. | :43:56. | :43:59. | |
Thank you, Jess. Well as we've been hearing | :44:00. | :44:04. | |
it's a busy Saturday at the World Athletics Championships | :44:05. | :44:07. | |
with 18 events at Here's a quick look ahead | :44:08. | :44:09. | |
to some of the moments She is now living and | :44:10. | :44:12. | |
training in France, but can she win her first senior | :44:13. | :44:22. | |
heptathlon events on British soil? One in Brazil last summer. She | :44:23. | :44:41. | |
earned bronze. But the Lancashire aptly be able to put her competitors | :44:42. | :44:45. | |
in a spin and replicate that success. | :44:46. | :44:49. | |
Usain Bolt will complete his last individual event. | :44:50. | :44:51. | |
He qualified in the first heat in which he said it was far from his | :44:52. | :44:54. | |
Can he deliver the show stopping performance that we have come to | :44:55. | :44:59. | |
There is coverage from 9:30am on BBC Two and then from | :45:00. | :45:02. | |
If you're still to go on your summer holiday or you know someone | :45:03. | :45:16. | |
who is travelling home this weekend, be warned - there could be delays | :45:17. | :45:19. | |
British Airways, EasyJet and Ryanair, have sent text | :45:20. | :45:22. | |
messages to passengers, warning them to be at the airport up | :45:23. | :45:25. | |
to three hours early to avoid missing their flight. | :45:26. | :45:27. | |
Lengthy queues were reported earlier this week at airports | :45:28. | :45:29. | |
in France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Croatia and Greece, | :45:30. | :45:33. | |
where enhanced security checks combined with high volumes | :45:34. | :45:35. | |
of passengers have been causing disruption. | :45:36. | :45:36. | |
Joining us now is the Independent's Travel Editor Simon Calder. | :45:37. | :45:53. | |
Good morning, Simon. Why three hours, four hours? What exactly are | :45:54. | :46:01. | |
they waiting for? This is nothing to do with leaving the UK or coming | :46:02. | :46:06. | |
back to the UK, although the airport will be super busy this weekend. | :46:07. | :46:11. | |
Tomorrow is Heathrow's busiest day. This is to do with a wall change | :46:12. | :46:19. | |
came into effect in April in the Schengen area. We need enhanced | :46:20. | :46:29. | |
passport checks. Last if you are flying from Manchester to Alicante, | :46:30. | :46:33. | |
you got off the plane, waved your passport vaguely at the official and | :46:34. | :46:38. | |
they would say, you are on holiday. Now everyone needs to be checked | :46:39. | :46:44. | |
against European databases, so you are getting long waits going into | :46:45. | :46:52. | |
places like Spain, but if you are leaving, and this is where we have | :46:53. | :46:56. | |
seen problems, you could find by the time you have got to be security and | :46:57. | :47:01. | |
passport check, your plane has gone without you. What happens then? If | :47:02. | :47:05. | |
you miss your plane then I'm afraid you're probably going to be stuck. | :47:06. | :47:11. | |
No compensation? Certainly no compensation. The insurers have said | :47:12. | :47:15. | |
there has been a lot of publicity about this and it is hardly an | :47:16. | :47:19. | |
unexpected event and we won't you any compensation. The airlines will | :47:20. | :47:25. | |
often let you reschedule and they might charge you for it, but planes | :47:26. | :47:31. | |
are flying 99% fall at the moment, so seats aren't available. Everyone | :47:32. | :47:40. | |
wants to get to the front and you will get some cue combing going on. | :47:41. | :47:52. | |
Are they doing that when you are queueing up to check in? It's | :47:53. | :47:57. | |
happening in Parma. You go through security and then you have a long | :47:58. | :48:02. | |
crocodile of people waiting to get through passport control to get to | :48:03. | :48:05. | |
the gates going to the UK. They will come along and say, who is going to | :48:06. | :48:09. | |
Birmingham and they will take you through. Lots of questions. Tony in | :48:10. | :48:15. | |
Venice says we got to Venice airport three hours early. The easyJet | :48:16. | :48:21. | |
check-in desks don't open until two hours beforehand, so he is cross. | :48:22. | :48:26. | |
Ryanair in Barcelona are opening three hours ahead. In Alicante some | :48:27. | :48:33. | |
airlines are opening three and a half hours earlier. John travelling | :48:34. | :48:41. | |
to Alicante got through in 15 minutes. You just can't tell. He is | :48:42. | :48:48. | |
sitting around buying overpriced coffee and this time yesterday he | :48:49. | :48:54. | |
could have been stuck in a queue. Unless you are lucky to sit in a | :48:55. | :48:58. | |
business or Executive lounge you are in the main area and you can't get a | :48:59. | :49:05. | |
seat. Jack says what about people who are less able to stand and walk | :49:06. | :49:10. | |
around? It means aviation is not possible for us. If we have two | :49:11. | :49:15. | |
shuttle along in the queue for an hour, we will stop flying. Obviously | :49:16. | :49:19. | |
there are some places where you get good fast track for people who need | :49:20. | :49:23. | |
special attention, that the problem as you say is every traveller for | :49:24. | :49:31. | |
themselves, unfortunately. Not great, is it? Problems in Barcelona | :49:32. | :49:37. | |
which are nothing to do with that. In a word? Security strikes there on | :49:38. | :49:43. | |
Fridays, Sundays and Mondays. Thank you, Simon. The simple answer is | :49:44. | :49:47. | |
that go stay at home. Is it worth it? Is the son going to be out? -- | :49:48. | :49:59. | |
is the sun going to be out? A mixed bag this weekend. The | :50:00. | :50:14. | |
showers could be heavy and we have had rumbles of thunder. The showers | :50:15. | :50:21. | |
are moving from Wales to the Midlands, is angry and the South | :50:22. | :50:27. | |
East. The north-west of England and the far west are doing quite well. | :50:28. | :50:31. | |
Scotland and Northern Ireland will see drier and brighter intervals, | :50:32. | :50:35. | |
but the cloud will build up and we will see some showers. The | :50:36. | :50:41. | |
north-west has a good chance of seeing lent the dry spells. | :50:42. | :50:45. | |
Scattered showers as well across Wales, but along the south coast of | :50:46. | :50:49. | |
Wales and into the south-west of England we have good spells of | :50:50. | :50:55. | |
sunshine. Scattered showers through the Midlands and East Anglia. Risk | :50:56. | :51:02. | |
of rain at the London stadium, but there will be dry spells as well. | :51:03. | :51:05. | |
This evening the showers will fade away and this ridge of high pressure | :51:06. | :51:12. | |
will come in. There will be wet weather tonight across Northern | :51:13. | :51:15. | |
Ireland. Ahead of that it will turn chilly. In rural areas we could see | :51:16. | :51:25. | |
single figures. Chilly start to Sunday, but a bright one further the | :51:26. | :51:30. | |
eastern side of the UK. Many eastern areas will hold onto weather. Early | :51:31. | :51:35. | |
rain in Northern Ireland will push into Scotland in the north-west of | :51:36. | :51:39. | |
England and the north-west of Wales. Ahead of that, a decent over the | :51:40. | :51:44. | |
Midlands and Eastern England. 22 degrees with light winds is not too | :51:45. | :51:51. | |
bad. Early next week it looks fairly unsettled. Rain and showers around | :51:52. | :51:56. | |
and it will be breezy as well. However, later next week things will | :51:57. | :51:57. | |
start to settle down. At 93, Reg Buttress from South Wales | :51:58. | :52:06. | |
is thought to be Britain's Now, after more than 30 years | :52:07. | :52:09. | |
in his current job he's decided it's This isn't the first time he's hung | :52:10. | :52:15. | |
up his apron though. He first stopped working at the age | :52:16. | :52:21. | |
of 65, but lasted just six weeks Our correspondent Tomos Morgan | :52:22. | :52:24. | |
went to meet him ahead But his customers and | :52:25. | :52:29. | |
colleagues love him. He retired once at 65, just a few | :52:30. | :52:47. | |
years into his time at Sainsbury's. His retirement only | :52:48. | :52:50. | |
lasted a few weeks. I look forward to coming | :52:51. | :52:55. | |
here to meet people. After working at the supermarket | :52:56. | :52:57. | |
for over 35 years, next month, when he turns 94, | :52:58. | :53:07. | |
why will he finally I need to do some | :53:08. | :53:09. | |
jobs in the summer. He has had five different | :53:10. | :53:17. | |
careers during his life, starting like many | :53:18. | :53:23. | |
others in the mines. After working for 80 years, | :53:24. | :53:27. | |
his work ethic and commitment to the job is still | :53:28. | :53:30. | |
as strong as ever. I don't know what I'll do | :53:31. | :53:36. | |
when he's not doing it. Believed to be the oldest | :53:37. | :53:41. | |
shop worker in Britain, I don't know what he'll do | :53:42. | :53:47. | |
when he's not doing it. Believed to be the oldest | :53:48. | :53:49. | |
shop worker in Britain, Reg is 75 years older | :53:50. | :53:51. | |
than the youngest worker It is clear his enthusiasm rubs off | :53:52. | :53:54. | |
on shoppers and colleagues Yes, everyone likes | :53:55. | :53:57. | |
to meet and greet I will miss them, | :53:58. | :54:03. | |
the people, the customers. Many have known Reg | :54:04. | :54:06. | |
since they were children, and they will be just as sad | :54:07. | :54:08. | |
as he will be next month Do you think you could be doing this | :54:09. | :54:46. | |
when you're 93? No chance. Be lucky if I make 53! | :54:47. | :54:50. | |
Five years ago they didn't exist but today AC London football club | :54:51. | :54:53. | |
will compete in the FA Cup for the very first time. | :54:54. | :54:55. | |
The club was formed by 16-year-old Prince Choudary after the 2011 | :54:56. | :55:01. | |
London riots as a way to prevent teenagers in London falling | :55:02. | :55:03. | |
The team will play Crawley Down Gatwick later today | :55:04. | :55:07. | |
in the extra-preliminary round of the cup, | :55:08. | :55:09. | |
which will make 21-year-old Prince the youngest manager | :55:10. | :55:11. | |
He joins us now from the club's training ground. | :55:12. | :55:21. | |
Prints, good morning. Thank you for talking to us and good luck today, | :55:22. | :55:28. | |
making history as we said. Just tell us first of all a bit about how your | :55:29. | :55:33. | |
club was formed because you started from very humble beginnings, didn't | :55:34. | :55:39. | |
you? Yes. Good morning to you. We started about five years ago when I | :55:40. | :55:43. | |
was 16. This was directly after the Croydon riots. In order to rebuild a | :55:44. | :55:53. | |
broken community, and Croydon was badly effected, we wanted to build | :55:54. | :56:01. | |
Croydon back-up. We started from nowhere and we are on our way to the | :56:02. | :56:08. | |
top. You had to borrow a pound from your mum to get things going? That's | :56:09. | :56:13. | |
right. She gave me a pound for a drink. With that pound, I borrowed | :56:14. | :56:24. | |
one of the kids's footballs and I gave him a pound. That's how it | :56:25. | :56:29. | |
started. One football, ?1 and everyone joined in from the running. | :56:30. | :56:34. | |
You were only 16 at the time. Just give us an insight into how | :56:35. | :56:39. | |
unsettling, many people will remember the pictures from Croydon | :56:40. | :56:42. | |
and other parts of the country, but give us an insight as to how | :56:43. | :56:47. | |
unsettling that was for a 16-year-old, seeing that happening | :56:48. | :56:51. | |
in your community. To be honest, it was scary. If you are born and | :56:52. | :56:58. | |
raised in Croydon, you know everyone. It was difficult to see | :56:59. | :57:01. | |
that happening and I felt I needed to make a change in society and help | :57:02. | :57:07. | |
Croydon get back to the best. Leading them into the FA Cup, as the | :57:08. | :57:17. | |
youngest manager in the history, how do you feel? It's unbelievable for | :57:18. | :57:22. | |
me. The youngest chairman and manager in the history of the FA | :57:23. | :57:29. | |
Cup. I feel honoured, but it's not about history and breaking these | :57:30. | :57:32. | |
records, it's about helping the community and giving back to them. | :57:33. | :57:37. | |
I'm no standing alongside you are a couple of your players. Skies, thank | :57:38. | :57:43. | |
you for joining us. How much are you looking forward to playing in the FA | :57:44. | :57:54. | |
Cup? How do I feel? I do have a question. It feels really good. It's | :57:55. | :58:02. | |
a new experience. It will be my first time, so I am really excited | :58:03. | :58:07. | |
about that. I am looking forward to it. It is exciting. The nerves are | :58:08. | :58:13. | |
kicking in. Mo, described the excitement around the club and your | :58:14. | :58:18. | |
friends and family. It is massive. This is the biggest and oldest | :58:19. | :58:20. | |
competition in the world which is what we need to remember. Being part | :58:21. | :58:26. | |
of such a massive momentous moment for a C London, not just for myself, | :58:27. | :58:31. | |
but for Prince and all of London, it is huge. I can't really put it into | :58:32. | :58:36. | |
words, it is absolutely amazing. Again, people watch the FA Cup all | :58:37. | :58:39. | |
around the world and we have a chance to China and we will take | :58:40. | :58:43. | |
that chance against Crawley town today. We wish you all good luck. | :58:44. | :59:00. | |
Thank you. That's it for this morning. Have a lovely Saturday. | :59:01. | :59:01. | |
Goodbye. | :59:02. | :59:03. |
