Hello, this is Breakfast, with Dan Walker and Naga Munchetty.

:00:00.:00:08.

President Trump warns North Korea it will face an unprecedented response

:00:09.:00:13.

As Pyongyang says it's considering a missile strike close

:00:14.:00:19.

to an American military base, tensions between the two countries

:00:20.:00:22.

North Korea best not make any more threats to the United States. They

:00:23.:00:39.

will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen.

:00:40.:00:51.

Good morning, it's Wednesday, August 9th.

:00:52.:00:54.

An extra 500 medical school places in England are confirmed.

:00:55.:00:59.

The government calls it the biggest ever expansion of the NHS workforce

:01:00.:01:03.

but unions say it doesn't address the immediate shortage.

:01:04.:01:07.

It's been ten years to the day since the start

:01:08.:01:10.

That's when banks started to realise they had bet that couldn't afford to

:01:11.:01:20.

be paid back. have been learned and whether it

:01:21.:01:21.

could happen again. Anger at the Athletics

World Championships, after one of the favourites to win

:01:26.:01:27.

the 400 metres is told he can't compete following an

:01:28.:01:30.

outbreak of norovirus. Yes, the fallout from the virus

:01:31.:01:38.

really overshadowed the 400 metres final last night. The runner didn't

:01:39.:01:46.

feature and in his absence Wayde van Niekerk cruised to victory to retain

:01:47.:01:48.

his title. Country star Glen Campbell has died

:01:49.:01:56.

at the age of 81. Good morning. We have a wet start in

:01:57.:02:11.

England and Wales and through the day the showers pushing in the

:02:12.:02:15.

direction of the south-east. Heavy and thundery. Some issues with

:02:16.:02:23.

fluttering -- flooding. In the sunshine it will feel pleasant. More

:02:24.:02:24.

in 15 minutes. Thank you. Tensions between the US

:02:25.:02:27.

and North Korea have President Trump has warned

:02:28.:02:30.

Kim Jong-un that if he continues to threaten America,

:02:31.:02:35.

he would be met, in Mr Trump's North Korea says it considers

:02:36.:02:48.

carrying out missile strikes on an American island in the Pacific. This

:02:49.:02:51.

report from Washington. North Korea best not make any more

:02:52.:02:59.

threats to the United States. They will be met with fire and fury like

:03:00.:03:07.

the world has never seen. Unprecedented language from an

:03:08.:03:10.

American president. Donald Trump officially escalated the US

:03:11.:03:14.

stand-off with North Korea from his perch on a walking vacation at his

:03:15.:03:19.

golf course in New Jersey -- working. The trigger, a report

:03:20.:03:24.

saying Pyongyang had produced a nuclear warhead small enough to fit

:03:25.:03:28.

inside its missiles. That much closer to the capability of striking

:03:29.:03:35.

the US. The president's angered response could draw range in the

:03:36.:03:39.

hopes of the dramatic solution. After a rare decision by the UN to

:03:40.:03:48.

slap sanctions on the regime. North Korea news is Kim Jong-un already

:03:49.:03:53.

has a plan to strike the US Pacific territory of Guam, which appears to

:03:54.:03:56.

have been put on place before Trump's remarks. President Trump

:03:57.:04:01.

often we decide his predecessor Barack Obama for not sticking to his

:04:02.:04:04.

red lines on foreign policy when he was in the White House. But now Mr

:04:05.:04:08.

Trump has drawn a breadline with harsh new rhetoric. -- red line. The

:04:09.:04:14.

question is, what happens if North Korea crosses it?

:04:15.:04:16.

500 new medical school places will be made available in England

:04:17.:04:19.

next year, as the government attempts to boost the number

:04:20.:04:21.

The target is to increase the total number of training places by a x 20

:04:22.:04:33.

20 to help ease staffing pressures. The British Medical Association says

:04:34.:04:35.

it won't address the immediate shortage.

:04:36.:04:38.

The government has given more detail today on what it says

:04:39.:04:44.

will be the biggest ever expantion of the medical workforce in England.

:04:45.:04:48.

What we're doing is ensuring that we train enough home-grown

:04:49.:04:52.

doctors so the NHS becomes self-sufficient in doctors over

:04:53.:04:55.

the period of the next ten years or so.

:04:56.:04:59.

And we think that that's the best way to ensure

:05:00.:05:02.

that we have the doctors we need for the future.

:05:03.:05:04.

Next year, an extra 500 medical school places

:05:05.:05:06.

By 2020, that number will grow to 1500, reprsenting a 25% increase

:05:07.:05:14.

And medical schools will have to win many of those extra places

:05:15.:05:21.

by showing that they can get graduates to work in rural

:05:22.:05:28.

or coastal areas, where recruitment's more of a struggle,

:05:29.:05:31.

and by bringing in trainees from diverse and disadvantaged

:05:32.:05:33.

We welcome the government's approach, looking at how they can

:05:34.:05:36.

get more people from poorer backgrounds to study medicine.

:05:37.:05:39.

It is something which the BMA has been talking about for many years

:05:40.:05:42.

but there are lots of questions about how these medical school

:05:43.:05:45.

places are going to be funded and how the government

:05:46.:05:48.

is going to tackle the immediate recruitment and retention crisis

:05:49.:05:51.

This is all part of wider plans to create thousands more training

:05:52.:05:59.

places for nurses, midwives and health professionals.

:06:00.:06:01.

The Labour Party says it does not add up to any

:06:02.:06:04.

But, ultimately, it will be patients who decide whether this extra dose

:06:05.:06:08.

of doctors proves to be an effective medicine.

:06:09.:06:10.

We'll be speaking to a health minister about those

:06:11.:06:21.

You know when they say time flies? It really does.

:06:22.:06:26.

It's exactly ten years today since what many consider to be

:06:27.:06:29.

Steph, you loved it, didn't you? Yes, there is good that comes with

:06:30.:06:40.

bad. It was good for my career but not for the rest of the world.

:06:41.:06:44.

It gave us a real insight into the financial industry. You remember 11-

:06:45.:06:52.

13 years ago it was hard to make this interesting for people and then

:06:53.:06:56.

on this day ten years ago the banks started to realise they were

:06:57.:06:59.

hoarding lots of toxic debt, debt that people had taken out and

:07:00.:07:05.

couldn't be paid back. A lot of it was linked to house sales in

:07:06.:07:09.

America, so people who were overborrowing essentially and

:07:10.:07:12.

realised they couldn't afford to pay it out and it had been dressed up in

:07:13.:07:17.

so many different ways by the banks and sold on to other banks. No one

:07:18.:07:21.

had a clue what these things were worth and that was the critical

:07:22.:07:25.

point. Ten years ago this French bank pulled out a statement saying

:07:26.:07:28.

they didn't know what some of their assets were worth. That sent jitters

:07:29.:07:33.

around the world. In the weeks and months following that all of the

:07:34.:07:37.

banks started to realise that they too had things they didn't really

:07:38.:07:41.

know what were worth, so we had massive banks like Northern Rock,

:07:42.:07:46.

they had a run on the bank, it ended up leaving the high street and we

:07:47.:07:51.

saw the collapse of Leeman Brothers, another huge bank in America. So it

:07:52.:07:56.

really changed the way banking was done and it meant is in an new rules

:07:57.:08:00.

have come out about how much banks have to hold in order to actually

:08:01.:08:05.

function as a bank and we've seen banks being looked at in terms of

:08:06.:08:08.

separating the whiskey site compared to the high street.

:08:09.:08:12.

They basically have to behave. Yes and we have seen interest rates

:08:13.:08:16.

cut, so that's been the biggest thing, the fact that we saw interest

:08:17.:08:22.

rates go from about 6% down to 0.25% and nobody thought they would still

:08:23.:08:26.

be that low. We will be talking about the

:08:27.:08:29.

morning. A decade since the credit crunch. Thanks.

:08:30.:08:31.

Children's services are being "pushed to breaking point" due

:08:32.:08:34.

to increased demand and cuts in council budgets, according

:08:35.:08:36.

The LGA says three-quarters of English councils overspent

:08:37.:08:50.

on child social care by a total of more than

:08:51.:08:53.

A government spokesman said councils would receive around ?200 billion

:08:54.:09:01.

for local services up to 2020. The LGA says it's not enough.

:09:02.:09:04.

Kenya's incumbent President Uhuru Kenyatta has taken a strong lead

:09:05.:09:07.

as votes are counted after Tuesday's election.

:09:08.:09:09.

With three quarters of results in, Mr Kenyatta has a lead

:09:10.:09:12.

of close to ten % over his rival.

:09:13.:09:14.

However, the opposition coalition has rejected the figures,

:09:15.:09:16.

and has accused officials of publishing fake results.

:09:17.:09:20.

Five men facing criminal charges over the Hillsborough disaster

:09:21.:09:22.

Three of them are accused of trying to cover up what happened in 1989.

:09:23.:09:28.

The police match commander on the day, former chief

:09:29.:09:30.

superintendent David Duckenfield, won't be in the dock.

:09:31.:09:32.

Our reporter Ben Schofield has more on this.

:09:33.:09:37.

Ben, why is David Duckenfield not going to be in court?

:09:38.:09:42.

It is about one month since the Crown Prosecution Service said they

:09:43.:09:47.

wanted to charge six men with various different offences relating

:09:48.:09:52.

to Hillsborough. David Duckenfield faces the most serious charges. 95

:09:53.:09:56.

individual councils manslaughter. But prosecutors need to apply to the

:09:57.:10:01.

High Court to lift a court order banning him from being prosecuted

:10:02.:10:04.

before they can take that case forward. The remaining five include

:10:05.:10:11.

the secretary and safety officer from Sheffield Wednesday football

:10:12.:10:16.

club at the time of the disaster. He and David Duckenfield were the only

:10:17.:10:20.

two who face charges relating to be fatal crushing itself. Three men as

:10:21.:10:23.

you say face charges of perverting the course of justice. They are two

:10:24.:10:28.

police officers from South Yorkshire Police and a lawyer, who was

:10:29.:10:32.

providing advice to the police force. And the fifth man we are

:10:33.:10:37.

expecting is Sir Norman Peterson, a former chief Constable who ran both

:10:38.:10:41.

Merseyside and west York police forces. -- Sir Norman George

:10:42.:10:51.

Bettison. It is expected to be a brief hearing, but nevertheless a

:10:52.:10:56.

significant step as these cases progress, some 28 years after the

:10:57.:10:59.

disaster. More coverage on the Rapid Bay. Thank you.

:11:00.:11:02.

Athletics chiefs have been criticised for denying a medal

:11:03.:11:05.

favourite entry to the London Stadium amid concerns over

:11:06.:11:07.

Around 30 athletes and support staff have been affected by sickness

:11:08.:11:12.

at the World Championships, but only Botswana's Isaac Makwala

:11:13.:11:14.

has been prevented from competing, as Andy Swiss reports.

:11:15.:11:24.

As Wayde van Niekerk charged to the 400 metres title, the first gold of

:11:25.:11:33.

a potential double at these championships, much of the focus was

:11:34.:11:37.

still on his absent challenger. Isaac Makwala was told he couldn't

:11:38.:11:40.

compete after his sickness because organisers had to protect the

:11:41.:11:43.

welfare of the athletes. At the team from Botswana were left frustrated.

:11:44.:11:48.

We respect the decision if it is based on public health issues,

:11:49.:11:52.

however, it is the manner in which this decision was arrived at which

:11:53.:11:56.

is quite disturbing and as we have indicated this matter has been

:11:57.:11:59.

approached in Britain grabs. We feel very sorry for the athletes that

:12:00.:12:03.

have to not participate but we have a responsibility for all of the

:12:04.:12:09.

athletes and if we allowed them all to sit down, it's a tight community,

:12:10.:12:14.

we need to make sure that all of the athletes are protected as well.

:12:15.:12:18.

Meanwhile, Britain's medal near misses continue, despite the

:12:19.:12:22.

performance of Karl Langford. Ron is just eluding him in the 800 metres

:12:23.:12:26.

by an agonising four hundredths of a second. And among today's highlights

:12:27.:12:32.

is the return of Mo Farah, as he goes in the heats of the 5000

:12:33.:12:36.

metres. He is still the British team's only medallist here and it is

:12:37.:12:40.

now halfway through the championships.

:12:41.:12:45.

Tributes have been paid to the American country music star

:12:46.:12:47.

Glen Campbell, who's died after what his family called a "long

:12:48.:12:50.

and courageous battle" with Alzheimer's.

:12:51.:12:52.

Dolly Parton said he had "one of the greatest voices of all time".

:12:53.:12:56.

He was famous for hits including Rhinestone Cowboy and Wichita

:12:57.:12:59.

Our arts correspondent David Sillito looks back on his life.

:13:00.:13:04.

Wichita Lineman, it's wide open spaces, yearning,

:13:05.:13:13.

loneliness, America turned into song.

:13:14.:13:17.

But what truly made it a masterpiece was the voice of Glen Campbell.

:13:18.:13:20.

# I hear you singing in the wires...#

:13:21.:13:24.

He had been born in Billstown Arkansas, a large poor

:13:25.:13:30.

His escape was his Uncle Boo, who taught him to play guitar.

:13:31.:13:41.

and on hundreds of singles with the session

:13:42.:13:54.

musicians the Wrecking Crew, Phil Spector, the Righteous

:13:55.:13:56.

Brothers, Frank Sinatra, it was Glenn Campbell on guitar.

:13:57.:13:59.

And eventually... A breakthrough hit of his own.

:14:00.:14:01.

But it was the partnership with songwriter Jimmy Webb that

:14:02.:14:06.

gave him his career-defining songs By The Time

:14:07.:14:08.

Clean cut, Conservative, he was suddenly

:14:09.:14:13.

country music's biggest star, with his own TV show.

:14:14.:14:16.

# But I'm going to be where the lights

:14:17.:14:25.

Rhinestone Cowboy was a glorious return to form after a dip

:14:26.:14:32.

in his fortunes that had taken place in the '70s.

:14:33.:14:35.

But his personal life was far from glorious.

:14:36.:14:39.

I think I probably just quit letting God run

:14:40.:14:42.

my life and I actually just got into the drugs and the booze pretty

:14:43.:14:46.

# I am a lineman for the county, and I...#

:14:47.:14:50.

That slight stumble over the words, it was

:14:51.:14:58.

He'd long put his wild days behind him, but

:14:59.:15:07.

What stayed with him when so much else had gone

:15:08.:15:15.

It doesn't look too nice, please tell me that's going to change? This

:15:16.:15:38.

is one of our pictures from yesterday. It is a cracking photo of

:15:39.:15:57.

some tornadoes and over the water, cold waterspouts. We will see these

:15:58.:16:04.

systems pushing down into the south-east, some heavy and Bunbury

:16:05.:16:07.

rain and showers over the south-east. Other areas starting off

:16:08.:16:12.

on a dry note, brightening up, but don't be fooled. A dry start for

:16:13.:16:17.

Scotland and Northern Ireland, also northern England, bits and pieces of

:16:18.:16:21.

cloud around. Coming across Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, threw --

:16:22.:16:28.

through the Midlands, this is where we've got some rain. Some showers in

:16:29.:16:34.

Wales and cloud, pushing in from the far side of East Anglia and Kent, a

:16:35.:16:38.

cloudy start but starting to brighten up. Through the course of

:16:39.:16:43.

the day, that will change. Expecting heavy downpours across east Anglia

:16:44.:16:47.

and south-east England. Some disruption because of this, and

:16:48.:16:54.

there could be some surface water flooding issues. Keep tuned to your

:16:55.:16:58.

television and radio station. Through the day, rain sinks out.

:16:59.:17:02.

Temperatures rising, some home-grown showers in the south-east. That,

:17:03.:17:06.

nation is causing downpours. Expect some fonder. Behind that, across the

:17:07.:17:13.

Midlands and through parts of Yorkshire, Wales, brightening up.

:17:14.:17:18.

South-west England as well, a bit of sunshine. Sunshine further north. 21

:17:19.:17:24.

and light breezes in Glasgow, feeling quite pleasant. Under the

:17:25.:17:31.

cloud and rain, quite pleasant. Some of us will see low double figures.

:17:32.:17:36.

Overnight, rain around in the south-east corner. It is fragmenting

:17:37.:17:41.

and starting to weaken. A lot of dry weather around. Some late showers,

:17:42.:17:47.

some mist and fog patches as well. Cloud thickening across the far

:17:48.:17:50.

North of Scotland. Some spots of rain. You can see why. This weather

:17:51.:17:57.

fronts not too far away. Tomorrow, high-pressure exceeding its

:17:58.:18:01.

influence. For many of us, a dry day with a lot of sunshine. Eventually

:18:02.:18:05.

we lose the dregs of rain from the south-east, cloud vicar from the

:18:06.:18:09.

north of Scotland. The low pressure with that front is starting to

:18:10.:18:15.

arrive. Temperatures lower in Glasgow, quite different in the

:18:16.:18:19.

south-east. High temperatures and dry. A bit of a change afoot. Look

:18:20.:18:31.

at that little guilty smile! It's fine. See you later.

:18:32.:18:37.

Time for a look at the papers. The Guardian, covering Sir Glenn

:18:38.:18:47.

Campbell, who died at the age of 81. Tributes pouring in.

:18:48.:18:50.

Donald Trump, warning of fire and fury, reacting to North Korea's

:18:51.:19:09.

military threats. The main headline again, there is no picture at this

:19:10.:19:15.

story is appearing in a lot of papers about this jogger, who pushed

:19:16.:19:35.

a woman into the path of a bus. The woman tried to speak to him when he

:19:36.:19:40.

came back, but he apparently ignored her and jogged on. Not a very nice

:19:41.:19:45.

person at all. The Daily Mail leading with a story saying that

:19:46.:19:50.

migrants have made 30,000 attempts to reach Britain and Calais this

:19:51.:19:54.

year, despite costly security measures. And the Daily Telegraph,

:19:55.:20:00.

Glenn Campbell again. A very impressive photo on the front of the

:20:01.:20:06.

Telegraph. He died at the age of 81. We will be reflecting on this

:20:07.:20:15.

morning. And ten years since the start of the global financial

:20:16.:20:20.

crisis. Interestingly, the stock market is hitting record highs at

:20:21.:20:23.

the moment. We will be talking more about that in half an hour. This is

:20:24.:20:31.

a really interesting story about a scam from people imitating Royal

:20:32.:20:38.

Mail. People are getting cards through the post, not official Royal

:20:39.:20:44.

Mail cards, but when you ring the phone number you get charged 45

:20:45.:20:52.

quid. It is a bit of a shocker. They are warning about that, saying don't

:20:53.:20:55.

ring that number. There is an official Royal Mail information

:20:56.:21:05.

number. Also, when you go to the cinema, you have to think about when

:21:06.:21:09.

you are going to go to the loo, time it correctly. Someone has developed

:21:10.:21:20.

an app that will tell you when the boring bits of the movie are on so

:21:21.:21:24.

you can go to the toilet. It also gives you a summary, so that when

:21:25.:21:28.

you go to the toilet, you haven't missed anything. That is quite

:21:29.:21:40.

clever! Surely you could just go before the film starts. I don't

:21:41.:21:45.

think I have ever born in a movie, not even in Lord of the Rings.

:21:46.:21:49.

Ladder of steel. -- Bladder. North Korea says it's

:21:50.:21:57.

considering carrying out a ballistic missile strike on the US territory

:21:58.:22:01.

of Guam in the Western Pacific. Earlier, President Trump declared

:22:02.:22:04.

that any further threats from Pyongyang would be met,

:22:05.:22:06.

as he put it, with fire, Let's talk to Niall Stanage,

:22:07.:22:09.

White House columnist for the US political website The Hill,

:22:10.:22:13.

based in Washington DC. Could you tell us what you make of

:22:14.:22:20.

Donald Trump's reaction? Strong words, he's not messing about. No,

:22:21.:22:25.

he's not, he is clearly escalating the rhetoric and at the same time,

:22:26.:22:33.

risking escalating this crisis. We saw President Trump appearing to

:22:34.:22:37.

read from notes as he delivered the words you have recited, but I know

:22:38.:22:42.

from my own sources that there are people in the administration who

:22:43.:22:45.

think his approach can be a fact did. They see the real audience for

:22:46.:22:51.

these remarks as being China, basically warning China of

:22:52.:22:56.

instability if it does not bring North Korea, its ally, into line. It

:22:57.:23:01.

is a gamble if that strategy will work, and the dangers of losing that

:23:02.:23:06.

gamble could be catastrophic. China has said that it is 100% committed

:23:07.:23:13.

to enforcing the latest round of sanctions enforced by the UN. I

:23:14.:23:18.

wonder who this message is really to? There are reports of falling

:23:19.:23:23.

popularity, is he as setting himself? There are also questions

:23:24.:23:28.

about whether or not he is in a position where they are ready to

:23:29.:23:32.

meet this with fire and fury? The last point you've raised is

:23:33.:23:36.

particularly important. The idea that you cannot make threats if you

:23:37.:23:41.

are not prepared to follow them through, as people sometimes say in

:23:42.:23:44.

this part of the world, you shouldn't pull it done during a

:23:45.:23:50.

fight unless you are prepared to pull the trigger --a gun. It is not

:23:51.:23:56.

clear what military action Donald Trump could take in this case. He

:23:57.:24:01.

has even received criticism from some Republicans, including Senator

:24:02.:24:07.

John McCain. He talked about precisely this point, the idea that

:24:08.:24:13.

other great leaders that he has seen have not threatened to do things

:24:14.:24:18.

unless they are in a position to act. And in John McCain's opinion,

:24:19.:24:26.

President Trump is not in a position to act right now. Thank you for your

:24:27.:24:29.

time. What really drives you around the

:24:30.:24:35.

bend... We haven't got time, Dan! From people who don't say thank

:24:36.:24:42.

you or ignore you in favour of their mobile phones

:24:43.:24:45.

to inconsiderate drivers and queue jumpers, comedian Danny Wallace

:24:46.:24:48.

believes rudeness is getting worse. He'll be on our sofa

:24:49.:24:50.

later on this morning. But first, we've been chatting

:24:51.:24:53.

to people in Manchester about what sort of rude

:24:54.:24:55.

behaviour drives them mad. What do you think is rude? What

:24:56.:25:08.

rivals you? Language. Strong language in public. I was in my shop

:25:09.:25:14.

this morning. The person in front of me was obviously in a rush, and he

:25:15.:25:19.

made a loud sound. He was really rude. Sometimes I let it go. What

:25:20.:25:27.

makes the difference? It depends how big they are. It annoys me when

:25:28.:25:35.

people interrupted. When people put their feet on the seat. When people

:25:36.:25:42.

don't text back. When they don't write back at all, or they write a

:25:43.:25:49.

short message, like K. Bad driving. In what way? Cutting you off and

:25:50.:25:58.

stuff like that. When you are in the supermarket queue and the assistants

:25:59.:26:02.

are dealing with each other instead of dealing with you. Do you find the

:26:03.:26:06.

general members of the public really rude? They are generally all right!

:26:07.:26:17.

There are some very good points made there. Joanne says one of her pet

:26:18.:26:22.

peeve is queue jumping, it dries her insane. In Britain, you don't tend

:26:23.:26:28.

to tell people that they have jumped in front. Used you in your pot,

:26:29.:26:33.

rather than saying, hang on, get to the back of the queue. I do both, I

:26:34.:26:37.

stew and tell. Martin says cars at a zebra crossing

:26:38.:26:51.

have repeatedly ignored him, they drove on by. Amy says her main gripe

:26:52.:26:58.

is feet on seats on a train, and also bags on seats when you know

:26:59.:27:03.

someone is trying to sit there. Look at the fury. Your rucksack is in my

:27:04.:27:20.

seat, that is the answer. I can see you will be

:27:21.:30:40.

I'm back with the latest from BBC London news in half an hour.

:30:41.:30:44.

Plenty more on our website at the usual address.

:30:45.:30:48.

Hello, this is Breakfast with Dan Walker and Naga Munchetty.

:30:49.:30:52.

The latest news and sport is coming up.

:30:53.:30:56.

Ten years on from the start of the Global Financial Crisis,

:30:57.:31:02.

we'll look back at how it all began and ask if it

:31:03.:31:05.

We'll also hear how the stunning natural beauty of Skye is attracting

:31:06.:31:12.

Now the island is struggling to cope.

:31:13.:31:27.

And we'll reflect on the life of the original Rhinestone Cowboy,

:31:28.:31:34.

the legendary country music star Glen Campbell,

:31:35.:31:35.

But now a summary of this morning's main news.

:31:36.:31:40.

Tensions between the US and North Korea have reached

:31:41.:31:42.

North Korea has said it is considering carrying out

:31:43.:31:45.

missile strikes on the US Pacific territory of Guam.

:31:46.:31:48.

The report in state media, quoting an earlier military

:31:49.:31:50.

statement, came hours after President Donald Trump

:31:51.:31:52.

threatened North Korea with "fire and fury".

:31:53.:31:54.

The exchanges mark a sharp rise in rhetoric between the two countries.

:31:55.:31:59.

North Korea best not make any more threats to the United States.

:32:00.:32:11.

They will be met with fire and fury like

:32:12.:32:14.

He has been very threatening, eon the normal state, and as I say they

:32:15.:32:25.

will be met with fire, Furia and frankly power the likes of which

:32:26.:32:30.

this world has never seen before. -- fury.

:32:31.:32:31.

The NHS is aiming to bring about the biggest ever expansion

:32:32.:32:34.

to it's medical workforce in England, after health officials

:32:35.:32:36.

confirmed plans to increase training positions for doctors

:32:37.:32:38.

The Department of Health has confirmed that an extra 1,500

:32:39.:32:48.

doctors a year will be trained by 2020,

:32:49.:32:50.

The move aims to increase the amount of home-grown doctors and reduce

:32:51.:32:55.

how much is spent on agency and locum doctors.

:32:56.:33:00.

It's exactly ten years today since the start

:33:01.:33:02.

It started with a warning from French bank BNP Paribas

:33:03.:33:06.

about US housing loans and ended with a global credit

:33:07.:33:09.

crunch, as governments around the world propped up banks

:33:10.:33:12.

Here, banks including Royal Bank of Scotland and Lloyds TSB had to be

:33:13.:33:22.

rescued with billions in taxpayers' money.

:33:23.:33:24.

Children's services are being pushed to breaking point, due to increased

:33:25.:33:27.

demand and cuts in council budgets, according

:33:28.:33:29.

It says three quarters of English councils overspent on child social

:33:30.:33:37.

care I about half ?1 billion last year.

:33:38.:33:38.

A government spokesman said councils would receive around 200-billion

:33:39.:33:41.

pounds for local services up to 2020.

:33:42.:33:43.

Councils are facing a double whammy. A big cut in government grants and a

:33:44.:33:54.

big increase in the number of children who need those services and

:33:55.:33:59.

so we are saying there will be a ?2 billion gap by the end of this

:34:00.:34:02.

decade in the amount of money councils need compared to the amount

:34:03.:34:05.

of money councils have got. That will lead to big problems in making

:34:06.:34:09.

sure we can keep children safe on the way the members of the public

:34:10.:34:11.

would expect us to. Tributes are being paid to one

:34:12.:34:12.

of the most successful American singers, Glen Campbell,

:34:13.:34:15.

who's died six years after revealing As a session musician,

:34:16.:34:18.

Glen Campbell played on hundreds of recordings before his career

:34:19.:34:39.

as a singer took off. He was best known for hits including

:34:40.:34:42.

Rhinestone Cowboy and Wichita Dolly Parton said he had "one

:34:43.:34:45.

of the greatest voices Yes, lovely tribute this morning and

:34:46.:34:53.

many pictures of Glen Campbell on the front pages of many of the

:34:54.:34:57.

papers and also on the back pages lots of talk about the World

:34:58.:35:00.

Championship athletics. We can cross to London stadium. Jessica is there.

:35:01.:35:06.

The hind you is the podium and one of the men who could have been on

:35:07.:35:11.

their yesterday, the big stories he wasn't to race at all.

:35:12.:35:12.

Exactly. A fascinating day yesterday. That's exactly why I am

:35:13.:35:20.

at the podium. Wayde van Niekerk will receive his medal for the 400

:35:21.:35:25.

metres the night before the start of the evening, but you have to ask,

:35:26.:35:30.

like you say, what could have been had Isaac Makwala actually been in

:35:31.:35:34.

the race? Yesterday these championships were dominated by

:35:35.:35:37.

debate and discussion about whether the Botswana athlete should be

:35:38.:35:41.

allowed to compete in the 400 metres. As you've all been hearing

:35:42.:35:45.

this morning on Breakfast, he wasn't allowed to take part, despite

:35:46.:35:50.

arriving at the stadium ahead of the race. Isaac Makwala was affected by

:35:51.:35:55.

a stomach bug and withdrawn from the race by the IAAF. Public Health

:35:56.:35:59.

England guidelines recommended people with that illness should be

:36:00.:36:01.

quarantined for 48 hours. Makwala was believed to have been

:36:02.:36:05.

one of the athletes who could have mounted a serious challenge in

:36:06.:36:09.

the race to South Africa's Wayde Van But in his absence, the Olympic

:36:10.:36:12.

champion and world record holder came through to comfortably take

:36:13.:36:15.

Gold and retain his title. And Van Niekerk had

:36:16.:36:18.

sympathy for his rival. It is quite disappointing. I would

:36:19.:36:27.

love him to have his fair opportunity. He was in great form. I

:36:28.:36:33.

believe it would have -- he would have done very well this

:36:34.:36:35.

championships and, like I said earlier, I've got so much sympathy

:36:36.:36:39.

for him. I really wish I could even give him his medal.

:36:40.:36:45.

British team captain Eilidh Doyle will have the chance to win a medal.

:36:46.:36:49.

She qualified for Thursday's 400 metre hurdles final as one

:36:50.:36:51.

of the fastest losers after finishing third in her semi

:36:52.:36:55.

And it was a good night for Dina Asher-Smith in the stadium

:36:56.:37:00.

where she was a kit bag holder at the 2012 Olympics.

:37:01.:37:03.

She qualified for the semi-finals of the 200 metres in

:37:04.:37:06.

She's had a difficult year fitness wise after breaking her

:37:07.:37:10.

Bianca Williams also made the semi finals.

:37:11.:37:16.

Let's bring you up to date with the rest of the sport.

:37:17.:37:20.

Manchester United were beaten 2-1 by European champions

:37:21.:37:22.

Real Madrid in last night's Super Cup.

:37:23.:37:24.

Real took a deserved 2-0 lead early into the second half

:37:25.:37:27.

and, although Romelu Lukaku pulled a goal back for United,

:37:28.:37:29.

they couldn't stop the Spanish side lifting the Super Cup for a fourth

:37:30.:37:33.

Sometimes when I win I don't keep the medals. So imagine when I lose!

:37:34.:37:47.

You know? For me, the medal would go to some place in my house and for

:37:48.:37:54.

that kid it is the moon. For that kid it is for sure something that

:37:55.:37:56.

will keep and remember. The Women's Rugby World Cup gets

:37:57.:37:58.

under way in Ireland today. Defending champions England will be

:37:59.:38:01.

hoping for a win against Spain in their opening fixture,

:38:02.:38:06.

the hosts take on Australia while Wales face a tough task

:38:07.:38:10.

against New Zealand. To start the World Cup against New

:38:11.:38:19.

Zealand is bubbly the best position we can key in the showcase

:38:20.:38:25.

ourselves. They are the second best in the world, but as you've seen

:38:26.:38:29.

recently they have been beaten. They were beaten in last World Cup I

:38:30.:38:34.

Island. Citing the prep we've put in and the buildup we've had coming up

:38:35.:38:38.

to this World Cup, we are really cool place.

:38:39.:38:41.

Now of course the athletes here at the Championships have been

:38:42.:38:50.

taking centre stage, but there's someone who's been

:38:51.:38:52.

Hero the Hedgehog, the official mascot here,

:38:53.:38:56.

has been causing a bit of a stir with his antics.

:38:57.:38:59.

He's been keeping the crowds entertained during the sessions

:39:00.:39:01.

and he seems to fancy himself as a bit of an athlete.

:39:02.:39:06.

I think he's got a bit of work to do around his hurdles technique,

:39:07.:39:09.

Did you see this last night? I think everyone was covering their eyes

:39:10.:39:24.

with their hands! Marks for artistic effort. Thank you

:39:25.:39:29.

very much. We will be there later and we will also speak to Kyle

:39:30.:39:35.

Langford and others as well. We've been talking about how close the

:39:36.:39:38.

margins have been for Great Britain's athletes, just missing out

:39:39.:39:42.

on the podium. But they are trying their best.

:39:43.:39:50.

I think six to eight medals was the plan and currently we are at one.

:39:51.:39:55.

You heard Jessica talk about Isaac Makwala, who wasn't allowed to

:39:56.:39:59.

compete in the 400 metres final after a suspected outbreak of Nora

:40:00.:40:02.

virus. Let's discuss this with Graeme Close

:40:03.:40:05.

who's a sport nutrition specialist You can understand athletes' anger

:40:06.:40:15.

over this and frustration, because they train to do their best to get a

:40:16.:40:21.

place on the podium. But why has this caused so much controversy when

:40:22.:40:24.

basically the medics think to be following the advice of Public

:40:25.:40:28.

Health England? Exactly, people are trained for four years for this one

:40:29.:40:32.

event and then it is taken away. But what we can't take our mind away

:40:33.:40:37.

from is the Nora virus is one of the most contagious viruses and it's not

:40:38.:40:40.

just a problem for the virus, but it's a public health issue --

:40:41.:40:47.

norovirus. These people are on a -- in a packed stadium. You've got to

:40:48.:40:51.

respect the decision of the medics who have done it in the interests of

:40:52.:40:57.

everybody. Explain medically, it can spread quickly, can't it? It is

:40:58.:41:00.

commonly known as the winter vomiting bug. I am sure many people

:41:01.:41:06.

have had it. It is why if you do get it you are advised not to go to the

:41:07.:41:10.

GP, because you don't want to spread it. Within the elite sports I work

:41:11.:41:14.

with we do quarantine our athletes ourselves if we get somebody like

:41:15.:41:17.

that, just to make sure it doesn't spread. Because it is mainly spread

:41:18.:41:22.

by hand to mouth contact which athletes do a of. But also being in

:41:23.:41:27.

close proximity to people. So it's not necessarily airborne, but water

:41:28.:41:34.

particles, if you are in close box and key. So if you are actively

:41:35.:41:39.

still ill it can be a really nasty bug to spread quickly. How long are

:41:40.:41:43.

you in quarantine for? We would typically quarantine people for 24-

:41:44.:41:48.

48 hours after the symptoms cease. That's a key thing to separate them

:41:49.:41:55.

and give it time to go away. What we do know is how will you will

:41:56.:41:59.

actually still be infecting people once the symptoms have gone. So at

:42:00.:42:03.

that point we really need to increase our hygiene standards.

:42:04.:42:07.

Interesting that from Isaac Makwala's perspective, to his mind

:42:08.:42:13.

and for the team he was ready to race and then you've got the

:42:14.:42:16.

pictures of him being turned away and told, no, you can't come in

:42:17.:42:21.

here. We had a genuine chance for the gold medal. I think that's what

:42:22.:42:24.

has brought into public perception. Absolutely. As I keep saying, it's a

:42:25.:42:30.

public health issue and I think what the IAAF have done is taken advice

:42:31.:42:34.

from Public Health England, where the advice was to quarantine 48

:42:35.:42:41.

hours following the symptoms. You've got to remember, this comes from

:42:42.:42:45.

faecal to mouth contact. Research suggests that up to 60% off men and

:42:46.:42:50.

40% of girls don't wash their hands after going to the toilet and of

:42:51.:42:55.

them who do only 5% wash their hands properly. With soap and water,

:42:56.:43:00.

vigorously. It's not hard to see how this spread quickly. We all rely on

:43:01.:43:05.

this hand sanitisers and gels and they aren't really that effective.

:43:06.:43:08.

So they don't kill something like norovirus? No. Soap and water, 15

:43:09.:43:15.

seconds vigorously and a good try at the end. Not the old robber John

:43:16.:43:20.

Hillcoat and off we go. And a lot of sports teams, is something like this

:43:21.:43:29.

has happened, then we go to and -- a no handshake policy. Knuckles? You

:43:30.:43:35.

might try the odd fist pump, if you are young and trendy like me. But

:43:36.:43:39.

then we want to try to stop that spreading and quarantine is

:43:40.:43:42.

definitely the best way to do it. It's just really unfortunate that we

:43:43.:43:46.

train for four years your chance of a medal is taken away so cruelly,

:43:47.:43:50.

but probably rightly. You wash your hands well, don't you?

:43:51.:43:57.

Lovely having you on the show. The remainder when Robbie Williams

:43:58.:44:01.

got in all sorts of trouble on New Year's Eve when he went through the

:44:02.:44:04.

crowds and shook the hands of people, on BBC, and then he was seen

:44:05.:44:08.

on camera putting hand sanitiser on before he went to carry on.

:44:09.:44:11.

Sensible! It is hard not to win in that

:44:12.:44:16.

circumstance. That's exactly what we would advise

:44:17.:44:21.

elite athletes to do. They are compromised with their immunity

:44:22.:44:23.

anyway when they are training hard. So we've got to do everything we can

:44:24.:44:27.

to close that window. Thank you very much. Let us know

:44:28.:44:31.

what is it about that. I'm off to wash my hands! Good morning. This

:44:32.:44:38.

morning in the north of your country there's a lot of sunshine around. In

:44:39.:44:42.

the south it different story. Some heavy rain around. It has fallen

:44:43.:44:48.

through the night. Yesterday we had large rainfall totals. You can sit

:44:49.:44:53.

in many parts of England, Wales and the Channel Islands, but not the

:44:54.:44:57.

south-east. It will brighten up temporarily. This weather front is

:44:58.:45:01.

sinking south-eastwards and as temperatures rise the showers will

:45:02.:45:04.

develop. Some of those will be heavy. High pressure in charge of

:45:05.:45:10.

the rest of the UK, keeping things fine and settled. This is the rain

:45:11.:45:13.

sinking south. Cloud for England and Wales. Into Scotland and Northern

:45:14.:45:19.

Ireland we have a fine start to the day, with some sunshine. Sunshine

:45:20.:45:23.

across north-west England. Heading into Yorkshire and Lincolnshire and

:45:24.:45:27.

towards Manchester, the Midlands, down towards the south-west, that's

:45:28.:45:31.

where we've got the weather front and our aim. Cloud in Wales with a

:45:32.:45:35.

few showers. The head of it we have a largely dry start -- ahead of it.

:45:36.:45:41.

But we will have sunshine develop and break through the cloud of

:45:42.:45:44.

through the morning, but it won't last. The rainfall moves southwards

:45:45.:45:48.

and we have further showers developing. The two merge and we

:45:49.:45:53.

have heavy and thundery downpours. It will brighten up in south-west

:45:54.:45:57.

England, Wales, northern England and we hang on the sunshine across

:45:58.:46:01.

Scotland and Northern Ireland. A light breeze. 21 in Glasgow, 19 in

:46:02.:46:07.

Belfast. If you're stuck under the cloud and rain some of us won't even

:46:08.:46:11.

get into high double figures. London about 18. That's pretty

:46:12.:46:15.

disappointing for the time of year. We are looking at heavy rain and

:46:16.:46:20.

showers urging for east Anglia and south-east England. That could lead

:46:21.:46:25.

to issues later in the day, with surface water flooding. So be aware

:46:26.:46:29.

of it. Overnight this is the weather front continuing to drift to the

:46:30.:46:32.

south-eastern corner. Fragmenting as it does so. Behind it a lot of dry

:46:33.:46:38.

weather, cloud thickening in the north of Scotland and not especially

:46:39.:46:43.

cold. Cooler in rural areas. Where we have late rain there could be

:46:44.:46:47.

mist and fog forming. Tomorrow we lose the front through the day.

:46:48.:46:51.

High-pressure establishes itself temporarily and then we've got this

:46:52.:46:54.

set of fronts coming across the north of Scotland, which will

:46:55.:46:57.

introduce bigger cloud and eventually we have rain. The rain in

:46:58.:47:01.

the south-east clears away and turns more showery and then we have a fine

:47:02.:47:06.

and dry day for most of the UK, with some sunshine. After all the

:47:07.:47:11.

sunshine in the north today there will be more cloud tomorrow and

:47:12.:47:14.

after the rain in England and Wales yesterday and today we have a dry

:47:15.:47:18.

day with sunshine and higher temperatures.

:47:19.:47:26.

We love a bit of old money every now and then.

:47:27.:47:30.

It's ten years to the day since a key event that most experts

:47:31.:47:33.

think marked the start of the global financial crisis.

:47:34.:47:36.

Steph's taking a look at what lessons have been learned

:47:37.:47:38.

Yes, it's a birthday that many would like to forget.

:47:39.:47:51.

On 9 August, 2007, the French bank BNP Paribas stopped investors taking

:47:52.:47:54.

US banks had been giving out high-risk loans to people

:47:55.:47:59.

They were packaged up into complex products and sold to investors

:48:00.:48:03.

When the economy took a downturn, banks were unsure how many bad loans

:48:04.:48:12.

could be on their rivals' books and stopped lending to them.

:48:13.:48:16.

Here in the UK, Bradford Bingley and Northern Rock had to be rescued.

:48:17.:48:24.

And Royal Bank of Scotland and Lloyds TSB received billions

:48:25.:48:26.

Authorities around the world pumped billions of pounds into the global

:48:27.:48:32.

And here, the Bank of England slashed interest rates from nearly

:48:33.:48:47.

Since the crisis financial, authorities have toughened up

:48:48.:48:51.

They have to hold more capital for emergencies and they've been

:48:52.:48:55.

forced to tighten up their lending rules.

:48:56.:48:57.

But the big question is, 10 years on, have we learned

:48:58.:49:00.

the lessons and could it happen again?

:49:01.:49:07.

Tom Stevenson is from the financial firm Fidelity International.

:49:08.:49:15.

Can you remember what you are doing ten years ago? Yes, I was on

:49:16.:49:23.

holiday, in America, I was enjoying the fact that the pound was doing so

:49:24.:49:29.

well. Interest rates were about five and three quarters at the time, it

:49:30.:49:33.

was a completely different world. When things started to unfold, it

:49:34.:49:42.

just showed... It was a real mess? Yes, it was. Authorities stepped in

:49:43.:49:45.

and took some extraordinary measures. The most important of

:49:46.:49:49.

those was slashing interest rates to zero. At the time, everyone thought,

:49:50.:49:57.

these are emergency measures. This will be short lived. Interest rates

:49:58.:50:01.

will go back to normal levels quite quickly. But we are ten years on and

:50:02.:50:06.

interest rates are still at a 300 year low.

:50:07.:50:14.

Yes, we have been wondering when they will get back to normal. Why

:50:15.:50:20.

has it not gone back up yet? We talked about what lessons have been

:50:21.:50:28.

learned, in some ways, we have not learned any lessons. We remain

:50:29.:50:35.

pretty highly in debt. It is difficult to raise interest rates

:50:36.:50:40.

because households simply cannot cope with higher interest rates. Low

:50:41.:50:44.

interest rates have been fantastic. If you have been lucky enough to own

:50:45.:50:49.

a property or stocks and shares, it may have made you look back and say,

:50:50.:50:56.

what crisis? But if you don't have a property or some stocks and shares,

:50:57.:51:00.

your wages have been flat, it is a very different balance. The last ten

:51:01.:51:04.

years has been very divisive between those who have and those who have

:51:05.:51:08.

not. We were talking about how the rules have changed, one being the

:51:09.:51:13.

fact that the banks have to have more capital. Could we see a

:51:14.:51:17.

situation where banks have to be railed out again? Banks are in

:51:18.:51:20.

better shape than they were. They are not sitting on toxic debt that

:51:21.:51:26.

you mention. That is the good thing. The bad thing is, what I mentioned,

:51:27.:51:30.

we are still very heavily indebted. The Bank of England says it is

:51:31.:51:35.

concerned about car loans. People are borrowing a lot of money to

:51:36.:51:42.

purchase a car, but we are still addicted to debt. If you look at

:51:43.:51:46.

personal debt, it is still incredibly high. Still in the

:51:47.:51:51.

trillions. Much too high in household and government terms. When

:51:52.:51:57.

we talk about deficit reduction, the debt owed by the government is still

:51:58.:52:02.

very high, higher than it was. Thank you very much for your time.

:52:03.:52:04.

Tonight a special production of Les Miserables has its premiere

:52:05.:52:07.

It was the favourite musical of the murdered MP Jo Cox

:52:08.:52:11.

and is being performed in her honour by school children

:52:12.:52:14.

But with a six figure budget and a team of experienced West End

:52:15.:52:22.

professionals behind the scenes, this is no ordinary piece

:52:23.:52:24.

Our entertainment correspondent Colin Paterson was at one

:52:25.:52:27.

It's the West End in West Yorkshire. All to honour the late MP, Jo Cox.

:52:28.:52:53.

Give me that energy, give me the eyes. The West End direct Nick Evans

:52:54.:52:58.

came up with the idea of putting on a show using children from Jo Cox's

:52:59.:53:04.

constituency. I want to show the communities that people across the

:53:05.:53:07.

UK, and in particular the West End community, cared about what

:53:08.:53:12.

happened. This project, to do Les Miserables in a warehouse in Batley

:53:13.:53:17.

and Spen, the town and Jo Cox represented. We are using the young

:53:18.:53:25.

people to tell the story and provide a narrative of hope. Although it is

:53:26.:53:33.

:53:34.:53:39.

amazing, we have got amazing direct his working on it. We are working

:53:40.:53:44.

with experienced people. Even the costumes were warned by the West End

at this -- theatre. Trying on my dress was insane, because this has

:53:49.:53:54.

been worn on a professional stage. I am in the lighting department, they

:53:55.:54:02.

can't do anything until I say. That is quite a lot of responsibility for

:54:03.:54:08.

a 15-year-old. Yes, but I have some professionals from the West End, so

:54:09.:54:12.

if I mess up I can get them to take it over. Jo Cox was a big fan of

:54:13.:54:19.

musicals. The late MP's seat was taken over by Coronation Street

:54:20.:54:26.

actress, Tracey Braeburn. I spoke to her husband and he said that they

:54:27.:54:32.

used to play the musical in the car, the kids know the words and it was

:54:33.:54:36.

her favourite musical. It's about passion, being a comrades, politics,

:54:37.:54:42.

working together. Having a vision. I think she would find it very

:54:43.:54:44.

powerful. Me of the cast had met her. How much

:54:45.:55:02.

did you know about Jo Cox? I knew her quite a lot. She came to visit

:55:03.:55:07.

our school quite frequently -- many. I met her about five or six times,

:55:08.:55:11.

she was lovely, really passionate. This is such a great inspiration, to

:55:12.:55:22.

do it in honour of her. This Les Miserables is on until Saturday, but

:55:23.:55:26.

it is hoped that the new youth Theatre will continue and provide a

:55:27.:55:31.

lasting legacy for a much loved MP -- theatre.

:55:32.:55:42.

Lots of hard work has gone into that. We are talking about rudeness

:55:43.:55:51.

later today, he thinks we are getting ruder and we are going to

from someone who works in the NHS. We have a former British Medical

:13:59.:14:09.

Association representative. Your reaction to this confirmation of

:14:10.:14:13.

these numbers, how was it going to work in practice? We all welcome

:14:14.:14:18.

changes like this, but what we are most concerned about is how late

:14:19.:14:22.

this is. We are looking at about eight years. If we implement the

:14:23.:14:25.

changes in the next 12 months it will take five years for a medical

:14:26.:14:29.

student to be trained to become a junior topped up and spent two years

:14:30.:14:35.

to become a junior doctor -- junior doctor. The other concern I have is

:14:36.:14:42.

we have an all-time low of college students applying for medicine for

:14:43.:14:45.

the first time ever. St George is university in London was clearing

:14:46.:14:51.

places for medicine and those are the questions I have the most

:14:52.:14:55.

concerns about. There is a concern about home-grown doctors and nurses

:14:56.:14:59.

coming through and that's where you see the problem? Absolutely and it's

:15:00.:15:05.

not 35%. We have about 7500 new medical students every year. Of

:15:06.:15:11.

course 20% of that is 1500, so it's not 25%. The number of vacancies for

:15:12.:15:17.

medics in the UK is about 50,000. We have massive amounts of vacancies.

:15:18.:15:23.

How is 1500 new doctors from the year 2023, 2024 going to address

:15:24.:15:30.

that? What would you want to ask the health minister now in terms of

:15:31.:15:34.

making a difference to your life as a junior doctor? One of the biggest

:15:35.:15:39.

concerns we have in paediatrics is retention of current trainees.

:15:40.:15:44.

Recruitment of current trainees. For the first year the Royal college of

:15:45.:15:48.

paediatric soprano second round of interviews for paediatric cases

:15:49.:15:51.

because not enough people were recruited in the first round. How

:15:52.:15:56.

are we going to address that with more junior doctors feeling like

:15:57.:15:59.

they can't cope with the gaps we can't feel? Thank you very much.

:16:00.:16:05.

We will be putting some of those questions to the health Minister,

:16:06.:16:15.

Philip Don. The first point that was made, on the issue of what you're

:16:16.:16:19.

going to do to address the immediate crisis, training these new doctors,

:16:20.:16:23.

we won't see them in service for eight years? -- Dunn. We are

:16:24.:16:29.

committing today to what we said we would do before the general

:16:30.:16:32.

election, to increase the number of home-grown, trained doc is by 25%

:16:33.:16:38.

over the coming years. We recognise there are pressures on doctors and

:16:39.:16:43.

on the health service system, that is why we've been increasing the

:16:44.:16:49.

number of doc is since 2012. Today, there are some 11,000 more doctors

:16:50.:16:56.

than 12,000 more nurses. There are some pressure points however. --

:16:57.:17:07.

doctors. This will not happen tomorrow, Doctor Patel is right

:17:08.:17:11.

about that. It will take some time. We have to manage pressures in

:17:12.:17:18.

certain areas. On the issue of repayment, do you know how much it

:17:19.:17:23.

costs to train Doctor? ?230,000. Is it a fair argument to say that there

:17:24.:17:28.

should be tighter NHS contracts, so that when you spend that money on

:17:29.:17:32.

training a doctor, it is easier for the doctor to stay in the NHS, and

:17:33.:17:37.

it is a benefit to the NHS by keeping those members of staff in

:17:38.:17:42.

jobs? Bout was something we did consult on over the three months

:17:43.:17:46.

from March - June. We are not yet announcing the response. We think we

:17:47.:17:50.

need to do some more work. It is a very complex issue. We are asking

:17:51.:17:54.

health education England to do some work on Mount to see how we can

:17:55.:18:00.

balance the competing demands for the individual doctors -- on

:18:01.:18:14.

amounts. There ask you about the issue with Rotor gaps? Raised by our

:18:15.:18:18.

junior doc is. The difficulty of those who feel that they are not

:18:19.:18:22.

able to do the job they wanted to do. They went into medicine to do

:18:23.:18:26.

these jobs, but there are not enough staff and not enough hours? The

:18:27.:18:32.

pressures on the system are acknowledged, the particular

:18:33.:18:36.

pressures in certain errors, such as emergency ... You are not

:18:37.:18:45.

specifically addressing the issues they are raising. The junior doctors

:18:46.:18:50.

raised a lot of issues last year, a lot of those were about the worklife

:18:51.:18:57.

Alan and the pressures on two new doctors. We have got 11,800 more

:18:58.:19:05.

doctors than we have in 2010, so there are more doctors coming into

:19:06.:19:10.

the system right now. We have a new cohort that began only at the

:19:11.:19:14.

beginning of this month. A new academic year has meant more junior

:19:15.:19:19.

doctors are coming into the system. Today's announcement is focused on

:19:20.:19:24.

the future and how we can ensure that this country becomes more

:19:25.:19:27.

self-sufficient in training our own doctors. That is why we are adding

:19:28.:19:32.

an additional 1500 races to be current places that we have been

:19:33.:19:38.

funding in recent years. We will be producing seven and a half thousand

:19:39.:19:44.

new doctors each year. I understand you are saying this is good news

:19:45.:19:49.

today, but on one more issue, nursing. Janet Davies, the general

:19:50.:19:57.

secretary of the Royal College of nursing, she said, the government is

:19:58.:20:00.

turning off the tap. Nursing degree applications have fallen sharply in

:20:01.:20:04.

the take-up is forcing many nurses out of a job that they love. There

:20:05.:20:10.

is a lack of funding for those coming in, and for those already in

:20:11.:20:18.

it. How are you addressing that? We have committed to funding the

:20:19.:20:22.

clinical placements for an additional 10,000 nurses starting

:20:23.:20:28.

from this current autumn. That is an immediate response to that

:20:29.:20:32.

challenge. As I said, there are over 12 one half thousand more nurses on

:20:33.:20:36.

our wards today than there were in 2010. What we are looking to do is

:20:37.:20:42.

to continue to increase the flow of nurses into the system. We have got

:20:43.:20:48.

52,000 more nurses than we have ever had before. That covers a number of

:20:49.:20:56.

specialties, including midwives. We are trying to address more people

:20:57.:21:02.

getting into the NHS, and today's announcement is another component to

:21:03.:21:05.

that. Wanki for your kind this morning. And your reaction to that?

:21:06.:21:13.

I am really struggling to understand where this is coming from. Making it

:21:14.:21:18.

simple, if you turn up to work one day and I told you there were none

:21:19.:21:22.

of you for the entire week and the cameraman has gone, just do your

:21:23.:21:26.

best. That is the kind of Rotor gap we are talking about. The minister

:21:27.:21:30.

is saying they are bringing in staff this autumn and working to bring in

:21:31.:21:35.

more... It is too late. In paediatrics, we have seen too

:21:36.:21:41.

impatient to make --2 inpatient units closed and a whole lot of

:21:42.:21:48.

other units closed as well. We have seen a 25% increase of admissions.

:21:49.:21:53.

We are getting more work and demand, but less staff than ever. There are

:21:54.:22:01.

11,000 new doctors, we have got 49,000. 'S graduating every year,

:22:02.:22:07.

but is not something new that they have done. Will

:22:08.:22:10.

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

:22:11.:22:18.

mixed fortunes today. In the north, it is fine, in the south, heavy rain

:22:19.:22:25.

and showers developing through the day. A weather front draped across

:22:26.:22:29.

England and Wales. Showers in The Channel Islands, some dry conditions

:22:30.:22:33.

in the south-east. Dry across much of the rest of the UK. I pressure is

:22:34.:22:38.

exerting its influence. This weather front producing the rain at the

:22:39.:22:42.

moment will sink towards the south-east, merge with some showers,

:22:43.:22:45.

so later we will see some heavy downpours. Drifting off, we are

:22:46.:22:51.

already in some sunshine. Hanging on to that through the day. A beautiful

:22:52.:22:55.

day across Scotland and Northern Ireland. A few showers in the

:22:56.:22:59.

Highlands at the moment. They will fade across northern England. The

:23:00.:23:04.

further north you are, the brighter it is. Then you can see where we've

:23:05.:23:08.

got the rain. That extends into the Midlands and the south-west. In

:23:09.:23:12.

Wales, more cloud. A few showers. Brightening up for you. That band of

:23:13.:23:19.

rain, through east Anglia and Essex and Kent, some rain, but the sun

:23:20.:23:23.

coming through for a time. It won't last. Temperatures rising, thundery

:23:24.:23:29.

downpours merging with rain heading south. As it heads south,

:23:30.:23:32.

brightening up across northern Wales and the Midlands. Northern England,

:23:33.:23:38.

Scotland and Wales will have a fine end to the day. Some of us will have

:23:39.:23:44.

a fine day. I is up to 21 in Glasgow, 19 in Belfast. Feeling

:23:45.:23:48.

quite nice. At the other end of the country. Heavy rain across east

:23:49.:23:54.

Anglia in south-east England. That could lead to some disruption with

:23:55.:23:58.

some surface water flooding. This evening and overnight, that weather

:23:59.:24:01.

front continues to drift towards the south-east. Where we have had some

:24:02.:24:08.

late rain, we could see patchy mist and fog. Away from that, dry

:24:09.:24:11.

weather. Clouding over in the far north of the head of our next set of

:24:12.:24:16.

weather fronts. Those fronts are attached to this area of low

:24:17.:24:20.

pressure. I pressure exerting its influence across most of the UK.

:24:21.:24:24.

Today's weather front continues its journey into the near continent. A

:24:25.:24:29.

feature in the morning, leaving Kent. Some light rain and a lot of

:24:30.:24:35.

sunshine. Quite a change compared to the last couple of days. A change

:24:36.:24:39.

across the north of Scotland, more cloud coming in. Temperatures as

:24:40.:24:46.

high as 22 degrees. That weather front continuing south during the

:24:47.:24:51.

course of Friday. A week feature by the time it gets into the

:24:52.:24:54.

south-east. And Saturday and Sunday looking quite nice.

:24:55.:25:01.

With it's rugged mountains and pristine lochs, it's no surprise

:25:02.:25:13.

that the Isle of Skye attracts large numbers of tourists.

:25:14.:25:15.

But the island has become so popular its services

:25:16.:25:18.

are struggling to cope with the numbers.

:25:19.:25:20.

James Shaw is there for us this morning.

:25:21.:25:28.

What is the problem? Too much of a good thing? It looks beautiful and

:25:29.:25:37.

tranquil, you can see the houses along the harbour. This is the main

:25:38.:25:42.

town in the sky. You can see the hill behind me, that is where the

:25:43.:25:47.

Highland games are going to take place. The busiest day of the year

:25:48.:25:54.

on this island. The population will probably double or more. It starts

:25:55.:26:00.

to give you a sense of just how much pressured areas on the

:26:01.:26:02.

infrastructure and services of this beautiful island.

:26:03.:26:05.

Skye has a unique and stunning combination of rivers,

:26:06.:26:07.

mountains and sea lochs, but now it's under increasing

:26:08.:26:09.

Some of Skye's most stunning locations are victims

:26:10.:26:30.

of their own success, suffering increasing road

:26:31.:26:32.

But, still, visitors are drawn to them.

:26:33.:26:35.

What do you think of what you've seen so far?

:26:36.:26:37.

I mean, just the landscape is amazing.

:26:38.:26:40.

Something you don't see anywhere else.

:26:41.:26:42.

Yeah, it's been lovely and everything is beautiful,

:26:43.:26:45.

but there are so many tourists that there isn't the infrastructure

:26:46.:26:47.

to deal with that, unless they manage it in some way.

:26:48.:26:51.

I fear that the prettiness will be damaged by all

:26:52.:26:53.

I didn't imagine so many people, but, yeah, we were quite

:26:54.:26:57.

You know, you have the vast landscape you can walk

:26:58.:27:01.

Not so much space on Skye's singletrack roads.

:27:02.:27:21.

Incidents like this are surprisingly common.

:27:22.:27:22.

And more people are coming to Skye because they've seen it on film.

:27:23.:27:37.

The problem at the moment is the car parking, disposal of waste,

:27:38.:27:40.

and, you know, people come to where the films were made,

:27:41.:27:43.

jump out of the car or the coach, take a quick picture and gone again.

:27:44.:27:47.

And, you know, it's nothing coming into the island economy from some

:27:48.:27:50.

Who wouldn't want to come to Skye to be so surrounded by natural

:27:51.:27:55.

It's clear that pressures are growing and some on the island

:27:56.:27:59.

believe that there need to be solutions sooner rather than later.

:28:00.:28:02.

Well, the biggest challenge over singletrack roads...

:28:03.:28:03.

Shirley runs one of Skye's most famous restaurants.

:28:04.:28:06.

She's also setting up an organisation which will pitch

:28:07.:28:08.

for government grants to improve the island's infrastructure.

:28:09.:28:10.

We need the Scottish government to get right behind tourism,

:28:11.:28:13.

which is now recognised as being a major economic driver

:28:14.:28:16.

We need to get them onside and perhaps supporting us with extra

:28:17.:28:30.

funding for the development of tourism as an industry.

:28:31.:28:33.

Other people suggest a tourism tax, or even making all or part

:28:34.:28:36.

But the consensus is that there should be action soon.

:28:37.:28:57.

there. Could there be a tourism tax to help protect the infrastructure?

:28:58.:29:09.

Probably the Scottish government would not be in favour of that.

:29:10.:29:15.

There could be a fund that might help again with that infrastructure.

:29:16.:29:20.

These are all options to consider. If you see me hitting myself, don't

:29:21.:29:26.

worry, it's just the midges, they are really bad today. We can

:29:27.:29:32.

actually see them all over the camera! You have done very well. It

:29:33.:29:36.

just makes you want to get rid of them. Thank you very much. Thank you

:29:37.:29:42.

for all your comments on the issue of rudeness. We have set the

:29:43.:29:48.

breakfast Twitter and social media account alight with what you think

:29:49.:29:52.

is very annoying. Lots to talk about later on.

:29:53.:29:52.

Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are.

:29:53.:33:10.

I will be back with more in about half an hour. See you soon. Take

:33:11.:33:14.

care. Hello, this is Breakfast,

:33:15.:33:19.

with Dan Walker and Naga Munchetty. Tensions between the US

:33:20.:33:28.

and North Korea have North Korea says it is considering

:33:29.:33:39.

carrying out missile strikes on the US territory of Guam. And earlier

:33:40.:33:46.

military statement came out after North Korea threatened America with

action. North Korea best not make any more

:33:49.:33:49.

threats to the United States. They will be met with

:33:50.:33:55.

fire and fury like He has been very threatening,

:33:56.:33:57.

beyond a normal state, and as I said they will be met

:33:58.:34:11.

with fire, fury and frankly power the likes of which this world

:34:12.:34:15.

has never seen before. 500 new medical school places

:34:16.:34:17.

will be made available in England next year, as the government

:34:18.:34:20.

attempts to boost the number The target is to increase the total

:34:21.:34:23.

number of training places by a quarter by 2020,

:34:24.:34:29.

to help ease staffing pressures. The British Medical Association says

:34:30.:34:33.

it won't address the immediate Earlier the health minister Philip

:34:34.:34:44.

Dunn admitted there are pressure points on NHS services. We recognise

:34:45.:34:50.

there are pressures on doctors, on the health service system, and

:34:51.:34:53.

that's why we've been increasing the number of doctors working in the

:34:54.:34:57.

health service since 2012. Today there are some 11,800 more doctors

:34:58.:35:03.

than in 2010, some 12,500 more nurses. There are some pressure

:35:04.:35:07.

points in certain specialties and part of the announcement today is to

:35:08.:35:10.

make sure that we recruit into specialties where there are

:35:11.:35:15.

shortages. We've had a massive response to that interview. One

:35:16.:35:21.

says, husband just turned off the TV, shouting over that interview.

:35:22.:35:26.

Paul says, my daughter has just finished her first year as a nurse.

:35:27.:35:30.

So many have pulled out of the course as they can't afford to live.

:35:31.:35:38.

Tanya says her daughter has four A stars but no medical school offers.

:35:39.:35:42.

She is desperate to be a doctor. Thanks for getting in touch.

:35:43.:35:46.

The latest in the world of business now. Good morning!

:35:47.:35:52.

It is kind of a birthday you don't want to remember. Like you say, it

:35:53.:36:05.

has flown by. Good morning. Bank started giving out high risk loans

:36:06.:36:11.

to people with pure credit histories and we know how much these loans

:36:12.:36:14.

would be worth and whether they could pay it back. So the financial

:36:15.:36:19.

system is frozen and interest rates were slashed. Of course they are

:36:20.:36:24.

still at that historical low. Even we are an economy still largely

:36:25.:36:29.

built on debt, people are wondering if we have learnt anything at all.

:36:30.:36:33.

We will talk more about this in about 30 minutes. People are being

:36:34.:36:39.

warned about a scam involving those delivery cards. You know when you

:36:40.:36:43.

miss your post and you get a card saying the caller number or go and

:36:44.:36:50.

collect your parcel. Apparently fake cards are posted to people, which

:36:51.:36:54.

look like official Royal Mail ones, and they ask you to call a number in

:36:55.:36:58.

order to retrieve your post. But what victims are finding out is they

:36:59.:37:02.

are actually being charged ?45 for that call. So watch out and make

:37:03.:37:07.

sure it is legitimate when you get one of those. And a story on

:37:08.:37:11.

parking. This is something we only really want to pay cash for,

:37:12.:37:15.

apparently. Apparently seven out of ten drivers will avoid parking in

:37:16.:37:19.

places that require payment by phone. They say motorists prefer to

:37:20.:37:24.

pay by cash, even if the metre doesn't give change. The AA says

:37:25.:37:30.

many are put off by administration fees and voice controlled payment

:37:31.:37:33.

systems. I am a bit like that. Same.

:37:34.:37:38.

You're thinking, did it really works?

:37:39.:37:42.

You don't trust it. You've got to get up-to-date with a

:37:43.:37:47.

modern times. I am amazed I am the one saying this, but it does work

:37:48.:37:51.

and it remembers your car, gives you an option.

:37:52.:37:56.

Nah... I like getting a ticket out of and putting their cash in.

:37:57.:37:59.

Tributes are being paid to one of the most successful American

:38:00.:38:02.

singers, Glen Campbell, who's died six years after revealing

:38:03.:38:05.

As a session musician, Glen Campbell played on hundreds

:38:06.:38:23.

of recordings before his career as a singer took off.

:38:24.:38:27.

He was best known for hits including Rhinestone Cowboy and Wichita

:38:28.:38:30.

Dolly Parton said he had "one of the greatest voices

:38:31.:38:33.

A few months ago Glen Campbell's daughter told us his father wanted

:38:34.:38:43.

to carry on making music as long as he could. He said, I feel fine, he

:38:44.:38:47.

literally said that, and I want to keep doing what I love, I want to

:38:48.:38:51.

keep touring, and I love performing for people. So he said he was going

:38:52.:38:54.

to do it as long as he could. Coming up on the programme: Carol

:38:55.:38:56.

will be here with the weather. That's in about six or seven

:38:57.:39:03.

minutes. Time to catch up with what's been happening not just at

:39:04.:39:07.

the World Athletics Championships but in the sport. Jessica is at the

:39:08.:39:13.

London stadium for the sixth day of the World Championships.

:39:14.:39:14.

Good morning. It was meant to be the men's 400 metres final last night,

:39:15.:39:21.

one of the most eagerly anticipated races of the World Athletics

:39:22.:39:26.

Championships, billed as one of the highlights of the entire

:39:27.:39:30.

competition. Actually it was very much overshadowed by all of this

:39:31.:39:33.

talk and discussion around the Botswana athlete Isaac Makwala and

:39:34.:39:37.

whether he would be allowed to compete in the final. As you've been

:39:38.:39:41.

hearing most of this morning, he wasn't allowed to take parts despite

:39:42.:39:46.

coming to the stadium ahead of the race. He was affected by a stomach

:39:47.:39:51.

and was withdrawn by the IAAF medical staff. Public Health England

:39:52.:39:56.

guidelines recommend people with such an illness should be

:39:57.:39:57.

quarantined for 48 hours. Makwala was believed to have been

:39:58.:39:59.

one of the athletes who could have mounted a serious challenge in

:40:00.:40:03.

the race to South Africa's Wayde Van But in his absence, the Olympic

:40:04.:40:06.

champion and world record holder came through to comfortably take

:40:07.:40:09.

gold and retain his title. And Van Niekerk had

:40:10.:40:12.

sympathy for his rival. I would love him to have

:40:13.:40:14.

his fair opportunity. I believe he would have done very,

:40:15.:40:22.

very well this championships and, like I said earlier,

:40:23.:40:31.

I've got so much sympathy for him. I really wish I could

:40:32.:40:35.

even give him my medal. Also last night, a thrilling

:40:36.:40:38.

performance from Britain's Kyle The 21-year-old missed out

:40:39.:40:41.

on a medal by 400ths of a second after a sprint for the line

:40:42.:40:50.

in the home straight. He qualified for the final

:40:51.:40:52.

as the slowest athlete in the field but came oh so close

:40:53.:40:56.

to winning a bronze medal. It is bittersweet because I knew in

:40:57.:41:05.

my head I wanted a medal coming into the night. I did the best I could. I

:41:06.:41:12.

finished strong. Just a bit gutted to be honest. It is so hard being so

:41:13.:41:17.

close to a medal. But I am 40 and the world now and I'm only 21, so

:41:18.:41:21.

hopefully down the years to come you will see me taking over that Mo

:41:22.:41:23.

Farah! British team captain Eilidh Doyle

:41:24.:41:25.

will have the chance to win a medal. She qualified for Thursday's 400

:41:26.:41:29.

metre hurdles final as one of the fastest losers

:41:30.:41:31.

after finishing third And it was a good night

:41:32.:41:33.

for Dina Asher-Smith in the stadium where she was a kit bag holder

:41:34.:41:38.

at the 2012 Olympics. She qualified for the semi-finals

of the 200 metres in She's had a difficult year fitness

:41:42.:41:43.

wise after breaking her Bianca Williams also

:41:44.:41:48.

made the semi finals. The Women's Rugby World Cup gets

:41:49.:42:00.

under way in Ireland today. Defending champions England will be

:42:01.:42:03.

hoping for a win against Spain in their opening fixture,

:42:04.:42:06.

the hosts take on Australia while Wales face a tough task

:42:07.:42:08.

against New Zealand. We've come out here along with 11

:42:09.:42:15.

other teams in the competition for the start of a brand-new

:42:16.:42:18.

competition. What's gone before has gone before and everyone is proud,

:42:19.:42:23.

but the slate is wiped clean and everyone is fighting and vying for

:42:24.:42:26.

that trophy come the end of the competition.

:42:27.:42:27.

Now of course the athletes here at the Championships have been

:42:28.:42:30.

taking centre stage, but there's someone who's been

:42:31.:42:33.

Hero the Hedgehog, the official mascot here,

:42:34.:42:42.

has been causing a bit of a stir with his antics.

:42:43.:42:49.

They've been keeping the crowds entertained. I think they fancy

:42:50.:42:57.

themselves as a bit of an athlete. Clearly got a bit of work to do

:42:58.:43:00.

around maybe their hurdles technique...

:43:01.:43:05.

It's not the easiest thing to master.

:43:06.:43:10.

At least the cone was there to save him. We will be speaking to Kyle

:43:11.:43:15.

Langford a little bit later on and also Laura Weightman.

:43:16.:43:19.

Two of those who just missed out on medals at this championships.

:43:20.:43:22.

There's a whole debate about whether or not we are doing well enough with

:43:23.:43:25.

the medals. One other thing, yesterday I took

:43:26.:43:31.

the kids to the Opening Ceremony of the Special Olympics. Absolutely

:43:32.:43:35.

brilliant. I know we will be there tomorrow on BBC Breakfast to cover

:43:36.:43:39.

the four-day event. It was a wonderful Opening Ceremony and the

:43:40.:43:44.

atmosphere was amazing. I just think with sport like this,

:43:45.:43:49.

so inspirational. Loss to look forward to on day six of the

:43:50.:43:53.

championship. Three gold medals are up for grabs including the shotput,

:43:54.:43:57.

the 400 metre hurdles and the women's 400 metres. Let's see what's

:43:58.:43:59.

in store. Britain's Shara Proctor and Jasmine

:44:00.:44:08.

Soyuz will be looking to make the final in the long jump. Shara

:44:09.:44:12.

Proctor won the silver in the 2015 World Championships and Jasmine

:44:13.:44:18.

Soyuz is a medallist from European Championships. After gold and attend

:44:19.:44:21.

us it is, Mo Farah will start his campaign at the 5000 metres and he

:44:22.:44:26.

has won this event in the last five global championships. Great written

:44:27.:44:30.

have three men in the semis at this event, including Danny Tolbert, 21

:44:31.:44:35.

year rolls who ran a lifetime best of 20.16 seconds to qualify just

:44:36.:44:38.

behind reigning Olympic champion Wayde van Niekerk. The Briton is an

else use and Mitchell Blake also made it through. American Felix is

:44:45.:44:50.

seeking a second world title at this distance but in the semifinals the

:44:51.:44:55.

Iranian athlete, 19, beat her and posted a new personal best and a

:44:56.:45:01.

national record of 50.08 seconds. If you want to keep up-to-date with the

:45:02.:45:05.

day's action you can watch BBC Two between 6:30pm and 10:30pm.

:45:06.:45:09.

All that to look forward to the day. 6:30pm on BBC Two.

:45:10.:45:29.

With North Korea saying it's considering a missile strike on a US

:45:30.:45:32.

territory in the Pacific and President Trump threatening

:45:33.:45:34.

Pyongyang with "fire and, fury" tensions between the two

:45:35.:45:37.

Lets get some reaction from South Korea.

:45:38.:45:40.

The journalist Alex Jensen joins us from the capital,

:45:41.:45:42.

Thank you for taking the time to talk to us. How worried should we

:45:43.:45:48.

be? How seriously should we take this ratcheting up of tensions? I

:45:49.:45:51.

was up early this morning, just about when Donald Trump was making

:45:52.:45:59.

those comments. I have to say, it was something different. We might

:46:00.:46:03.

think some of the things he does and the things he tweets are

:46:04.:46:09.

light-hearted, but this looks like a planned statement. There is a bit of

:46:10.:46:13.

poetry, it has not just spontaneously rolled off the tongue.

:46:14.:46:18.

He has also said a red line, laid down the challenge to North Korea.

:46:19.:46:22.

Coincidently, around the same time, North Korea released a statement

:46:23.:46:26.

saying they were prepared to possibly attack around Wylam. We

:46:27.:46:30.

know there are some significant military outposts there which

:46:31.:46:36.

sometimes make little journeys over South Korea. They did that

:46:37.:46:39.

yesterday. I think things are getting more serious. Looking around

:46:40.:46:44.

here in Seoul, people are very much business as usual. We are so

:46:45.:46:48.

desensitised here that I would not take it as a barometer of anything.

:46:49.:46:54.

Where does this go next? You have got fire, theory and power as a

:46:55.:46:59.

threat or a reaction. What more can be said for we see physical action?

:47:00.:47:07.

From the US, not much more can be said. If it came to blows, I don't

:47:08.:47:12.

know whether there would be any kind of formal statement. I suspect that

:47:13.:47:18.

would not be the case. At this point, my overall feeling is that

:47:19.:47:23.

this is still lost, it is still rhetoric from the US. President

:47:24.:47:27.

Trump is putting himself in a position where I think the American

:47:28.:47:30.

people are increasingly becoming worried about their mainland being

:47:31.:47:37.

threatened. Various people in the Trump administration are talking

:47:38.:47:40.

about preventative war. The language is ratcheting up. You can only talk

:47:41.:47:45.

like that for so long before some action has to be taken. North Korea

:47:46.:47:51.

has danced a one-sided tango for decades. You have got a US president

:47:52.:47:56.

talking in those terms now. It becomes very dangerous. He is also

:47:57.:48:00.

saying, if you threaten the US, North Korea are going to do it. So

:48:01.:48:06.

then what will happen? How will Kim Jong-Un react? I am sure, the same

:48:07.:48:13.

as always, because otherwise Pyongyang might consider that

:48:14.:48:20.

statement, threatening Guam, within hours of what Donald Trump had said.

:48:21.:48:26.

Even if it had been planned... I think that with the military drills

:48:27.:48:33.

this month, we will see some provocation. We saw two launches

:48:34.:48:37.

last month knowing they would get sanctioned again. North Korea is

:48:38.:48:42.

very likely to carry out a provocation of some kind. Then the

:48:43.:48:51.

ball will be in Donald Trump's Court. -- court.

:48:52.:48:59.

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

:49:00.:49:06.

For some of us, but not all, if you're in the northern half of the

:49:07.:49:15.

country, it some sunshine. In the south, heavy rain. That is courtesy

:49:16.:49:21.

of this heavy front, and a high pressure building behind it is

:49:22.:49:29.

giving us are unsettled conditions. But you can see some brightness in

:49:30.:49:33.

the south-east. Some early sunshine. As temperatures rise, sparking off

:49:34.:49:40.

some heavier thundery downpours. We are off to a bright start in

:49:41.:49:44.

northern England with some sunshine. As the rain pushes south, it will

:49:45.:49:50.

continue across England and Wales. Heavy rain merging with heavy

:49:51.:49:54.

showers, some torrential downpours in the south-east. This afternoon,

:49:55.:49:59.

hanging onto sunshine across Scotland and Northern Ireland.

:50:00.:50:03.

Temperatures 20- 21. Feeling quite pleasant with a light breeze. Rain

:50:04.:50:09.

in northern England and torrential downpours yesterday, you might need

:50:10.:50:14.

an umbrella. Brightening up in Wales. Later in the day, brightening

:50:15.:50:19.

up in south-west England. You can see, where we have rain pushing

:50:20.:50:25.

south-east, merging with showers, again some torrential downpours to

:50:26.:50:30.

look out for. For some of us, the temperature won't even get higher

:50:31.:50:34.

than the low double figures. In east Anglia and the south-east, they are

:50:35.:50:41.

in the firing line for that. We could see some surface water

:50:42.:50:45.

flooding. Take extra care. As we head through the afternoon, those

:50:46.:50:50.

are our temperature values. Here is the rain, continuing into the

:50:51.:50:55.

evening and overnight. Pushing down into the south-east. Where we have

:50:56.:51:00.

late rain or showers, we might see some patchiness and fog forming. For

:51:01.:51:04.

most of us, a dry night. Chilly in rural areas. These temperatures

:51:05.:51:09.

indicative of towns and cities. In the north, starting to cloud over.

:51:10.:51:14.

We have got a weather front not too far away. Producing some rain later

:51:15.:51:18.

in the day in the Northern Isles and then in the western Isles. At the

:51:19.:51:22.

other end of the country, losing that rain to the near continent.

:51:23.:51:26.

High-pressure exerting its influence. For a lot of the UK

:51:27.:51:32.

tomorrow, a fine and dry day. Some will notice a difference across

:51:33.:51:35.

England and Wales. This weather front is thinking south during the

:51:36.:51:40.

course of the day. A week feature as it gets into the south. On Saturday

:51:41.:51:52.

and Sunday, not looking too shabby. Thank you very much.

:51:53.:51:58.

All this summer here on Breakfast, we're talking to some of the UK's

:51:59.:52:02.

This morning Steph is talking to a woman who's achieved rare

:52:03.:52:06.

success in the world of science and energy.

:52:07.:52:12.

Yes, this is the third in our summer series talking to inspirational

:52:13.:52:16.

businesswoman at the top of their field.

:52:17.:52:18.

The energy industry, which has been much in the news

:52:19.:52:22.

recently, is dominated by men - with only 6 percent of the places

:52:23.:52:26.

on the boards of power companies taken by women.

:52:27.:52:28.

My guest today is chief exec of Good Energy,

:52:29.:52:31.

an energy company she founded in 1999.

:52:32.:52:33.

It sells gas and electricity to around 115,000 customers

:52:34.:52:35.

generated only from renewable or carbon neutral sources.

:52:36.:52:37.

It also operates its own wind and solar farms.

:52:38.:52:41.

Juliet Davenport, welcome to BBC Breakfast.

:52:42.:52:46.

Take us back to the beginning of where this started for you? It feels

:52:47.:52:52.

like a really long time ago. In 1999, I guess I was really

:52:53.:52:57.

interested and passionate about trying to look for a cleaner future

:52:58.:53:03.

for the energy. I had come out of a consultancy, doing a lot of

:53:04.:53:06.

technology and looking at the policies around it, the finances

:53:07.:53:15.

around it. A lot of studies forgot consumers. Nobody had thought about

:53:16.:53:19.

this power and whether that would shift in a new world where you have

:53:20.:53:23.

low government power. That became really interesting to me. I was

:53:24.:53:27.

really lucky to bump into somebody at a conference who had the same

:53:28.:53:32.

thought. We came together and set up the business back in 1999. It is

:53:33.:53:39.

quite something to set up a business. Was it purely the

:53:40.:53:47.

motivation to make businesses Greener, or was it the real -- or

:53:48.:53:55.

was it something else? If you knew all the problems about setting up

:53:56.:53:58.

your own business, you might not do it. You have to be passionate,

:53:59.:54:02.

really focused on that. You have to hold onto that all the way through.

:54:03.:54:08.

The thing about businesses is that they do stuff. A lot of policymakers

:54:09.:54:14.

try to tinker around, moneymakers give you the money. Business people

:54:15.:54:21.

actually do things, you get to be fantastically creative. You work

:54:22.:54:25.

with fantastic people, lots of great customers. You get to do it and it

:54:26.:54:32.

is really exciting. The energy industry is quite an interesting

:54:33.:54:38.

area to penetrate. We talk about the big companies that dominate the

:54:39.:54:42.

market is, what is that like? I came up through a background of physics.

:54:43.:54:46.

That is what I studied at university. I got quite used to

:54:47.:54:52.

being in a bit of a minority. I was really lucky, I spent two years

:54:53.:54:56.

teaching maths and physics. It gives you huge confidence about explaining

:54:57.:55:08.

complex ideas in speaking out loud. Nobody gave me a hard time or tried

:55:09.:55:15.

to put me down. It surprised me. Where they surprised you were

:55:16.:55:18.

intelligent quest of surprised I had something to say, a challenge to the

:55:19.:55:22.

way they were thinking about it. It was very interesting, we -- when I

:55:23.:55:33.

first came into it, customers were just metres, not real people.

:55:34.:55:38.

Customers can generate their own power today. We have lots of

:55:39.:55:42.

customers who do that. We look at the market in a completely different

:55:43.:55:46.

way. They haven't really thought about that. I think that is why you

:55:47.:55:51.

need diversity in business, to look at problems in different ways. It is

:55:52.:55:57.

interesting that it is heavily criticised. What are your thoughts?

:55:58.:56:01.

I think it is in a period of transition. My fingers are crossed

:56:02.:56:05.

that the way we look at things in the future will be different, the

:56:06.:56:12.

customer coming clean as opposed to being the person on the end of the

:56:13.:56:16.

wire. We have seen price changes, there is a lot of playing around. It

:56:17.:56:24.

is a competitive market. The successes, nearly 4 million people

:56:25.:56:27.

switched this year. That is a huge change from what we have seen

:56:28.:56:32.

before. It is very easy to switch. Consumers can take their own power.

:56:33.:56:38.

If they don't like what they are getting, you can find more suppliers

:56:39.:56:41.

in the market than ever before. There is so much choice. I think it

:56:42.:56:46.

is a better consumer market and we have ever seen. I hope we continue

:56:47.:56:50.

to see customers drive forward a real choice in the future. You can

:56:51.:56:55.

hear my optimism coming through. We can see a future where customers are

:56:56.:57:00.

in charge, they generate their own power and decide what they want to

:57:01.:57:05.

do. Your home becomes a smart place, not somebody down the road.

:57:06.:57:10.

Interesting to see what happens. Thank you for coming in.

:57:11.:57:13.

Talking about the credit crunch later on.

:57:14.:57:19.

Back with the headlines in a few minutes, but time

:57:20.:00:41.

Hello, this is Breakfast, with Dan Walker and Naga Munchetty.

:00:42.:00:52.

"Fire and fury" - President Trump warns North Korea it will face

:00:53.:00:55.

an unprecedented response if it continues to threaten America.

:00:56.:00:58.

As Pyongyang says it's considering a missile strike close

:00:59.:01:00.

to an American military base - tensions between the two

:01:01.:01:02.

They will be met with fire, fury and frankly power.

:01:03.:01:08.

The likes of which this world has never seen before.

:01:09.:01:27.

Good morning. It's Wednesday, 9th August.

:01:28.:01:32.

An extra 500 medical school places

:01:33.:01:35.

The Government calls it the biggest ever expansion of the workforce

:01:36.:01:40.

but unions say it doesn't address the immediate shortage.

:01:41.:01:45.

It has been ten years since the start of the global

:01:46.:01:54.

when banks started to realise they were sitting

:01:55.:01:57.

I'll be looking at what has happened since then

:01:58.:02:01.

Anger at the athletics world championships after one

:02:02.:02:05.

of the favourites to win the 400 metres is told he can't compete

:02:06.:02:08.

The fall-out from that virus very much overshadowed the men's 400

:02:09.:02:16.

meter final at the London Stadium last night.

:02:17.:02:29.

Makwala didn't compete. # Like a rhinestone cowboy. . #

Famed for the Wichita Lineman and the Rhinestone Cowboy,

country star Glen Campbell has died at the age of 81.

We'll be live on the beautiful Isle of Skye where they're struggling

:02:43.:02:45.

Lovely across many parts of Scotland, Northern Ireland and also

:02:46.:02:58.

the far north of northern England. For the rest of us, it's cloudy.

:02:59.:03:02.

There is some rain around. Showers to develop and in the South East and

:03:03.:03:05.

East Anglia we're likely to see heavy thundery downpours later. But

:03:06.:03:08.

I'll have more details in 15 minutes. Thanks, Carol, see you

:03:09.:03:12.

then. Tensions between the US

:03:13.:03:15.

and North Korea have North Korea has said

:03:16.:03:17.

it is considering carrying out missile strikes on the US Pacific

:03:18.:03:20.

territory of Guam. While President Trump has declared

:03:21.:03:22.

that any further threats from the North Koreans will be met

:03:23.:03:24.

with a devastating response. Suzanne Kianpour reports

:03:25.:03:27.

from Washington. North Korea best not make any more

:03:28.:03:31.

threats to the United States. Unprecedented language

:03:32.:03:46.

from an American president. Donald Trump officially escalated

:03:47.:03:50.

the US stand-off with North Korea from his perch on a working vacation

:03:51.:03:52.

at his golf course in New Jersey. A report by US intelligence

:03:53.:03:55.

officials saying Pyongyang has produced a nuclear warhead small

enough to fit inside its missiles - that much closer to the capability

territory of Guam which appears to have been in place

:04:27.:04:29.

before Mr Trump's remarks. President Trump often

:04:30.:04:34.

criticised his predecessor, Barack Obama, for not sticking

to his red lines in foreign policy when he was here in the White House,

but now, Mr Trump has drawn a red The question is - what happens

to boost the number of home-grown The target is to increase the total

:04:54.:04:56.

number of training places by a quarter by 2020,

:04:57.:05:04.

to help ease staffing pressures. The British Medical Association

:05:05.:05:06.

says it won't address The Government has given more detail

:05:07.:05:08.

today on what it says will be the biggest ever expansion

:05:09.:05:25.

of the medical workforce in England. What we're doing is ensuring

:05:26.:05:30.

that we train enough home-grown doctors so the NHS becomes

:05:31.:05:32.

self-sufficient in doctors over the period of the next ten years

:05:33.:05:35.

or so and we think that that's the best way to ensure

:05:36.:05:38.

that we have the doctors Next year, an extra 500

:05:39.:05:41.

medical school places By 2020, that number will grow

:05:42.:05:45.

to 1,500, reprsenting a 25% increase in yearly intake over

:05:46.:05:52.

all and medical schools will have to win many of those extra places

:05:53.:05:59.

by showing that they can get graduates to work in rural

:06:00.:06:02.

or coastal areas, where recruitment os more of a struggle,

:06:03.:06:05.

and by bringing in trainees from diverse

:06:06.:06:07.

and disadvantaged backgrounds. We welcome the Government's

:06:08.:06:13.

approach, looking at how they can get more people from poorer

:06:14.:06:16.

backgrounds to study medicine. It's something which the BMA has

:06:17.:06:19.

been talking about for many years, but there are lots of questions

:06:20.:06:21.

about how these medical school places are going to be funded

:06:22.:06:24.

and how the Government is going to tackle the immediate

:06:25.:06:27.

recruitment and retention crisis This is all part of wider plans

:06:28.:06:29.

to create thousands more training places for nurses,

:06:30.:06:33.

midwives and health professionals. The Labour Party says it

:06:34.:06:39.

doesn't add up to any But, ultimately, it will be patients

:06:40.:06:41.

who decide whether this extra dose of doctors proves to be

:06:42.:06:45.

an effective medicine. Five men facing criminal charges

of attempting to pervert the course The police match commander

:06:57.:07:02.

on the day, former Chief Superintendent David Duckenfield,

:07:03.:07:07.

won't be in the dock. Our reporter Ben Schofield

:07:08.:07:10.

has more on this. Ben, why won't he be in the dock? It

:07:11.:07:23.

is over a month since the Crown Prosecution Service said they wanted

:07:24.:07:26.

to charge six individuals with various offences relating to

:07:27.:07:28.

Hillsborough. David Duckenfield faces the most serious charges. 95

:07:29.:07:32.

individual counts of mans slaughter, but before prosecutors can proceed

:07:33.:07:37.

with the case against him, they need to apply to the High Court to have a

:07:38.:07:42.

court order lifted which prevents him being prosecuted. Who are the

:07:43.:07:45.

five people we are expecting in the dock? They include the secretary and

:07:46.:07:52.

safety officer from Sheffield Wednesday football club. He is

:07:53.:07:55.

facing accusations that he breached health and safety legislation. He

:07:56.:07:59.

and David Duckenfield are the only two individuals charged in relation

:08:00.:08:03.

to the disaster itself. And then, there are three men charged with

:08:04.:08:07.

perverting the course of justice. They are two former police officers

:08:08.:08:11.

from South Yorkshire Police and a lawyer who was advising the force in

:08:12.:08:17.

the wake of the disaster. The fifth man in the dock, Sir Norman

:08:18.:08:20.

Bettison. He is the former Chief Constable of West Yorkshire and

:08:21.:08:24.

Merseyside Police forces and he's facing accusations of misconduct in

:08:25.:08:28.

a public office. It's expected to be quite a short and brief hearing at

:08:29.:08:35.

Warrington Magistrates' Court, but a significant moment as the cases

:08:36.:08:41.

progress, what is it, 28 years since the disaster its self. We will be

:08:42.:08:46.

following it later. Children's services are being

:08:47.:08:48.

"pushed to breaking point" due to increased demand and cuts

:08:49.:08:50.

in council budgets according The LGA says three-quarters

:08:51.:08:52.

of English councils overspent on child social care by a total

:08:53.:09:04.

of more than ?0.5 billion. A government spokesman said councils

:09:05.:09:07.

would receive around ?200 billion Kenya's incumbent President Uhuru

:09:08.:09:09.

Kenyatta has taken a strong lead as votes are counted

:09:10.:09:15.

after Tuesday's election. With more than three-quarters

:09:16.:09:17.

of results in, Mr Kenyatta has a lead of close

:09:18.:09:22.

to 10% over his rival. However, the opposition coalition

:09:23.:09:25.

has rejected the figures, and has accused officials

:09:26.:09:27.

of publishing fake results. Athletics chiefs have been

:09:28.:09:29.

criticised for denying a medal favourite entry

at these championships, much of the focus was still

:09:55.:09:57.

on his absent challenger. Isaac Makwala was told he couldn't

:09:58.:10:01.

this matter has been We feel very sorry for the athletes

that have to be withdrawn from the competition,

:10:23.:10:28.

but we have a responsibility for all of the athletes

:10:29.:10:31.

and if we allowed them all to sit, it's a tight close community

:10:32.:10:35.

and we need to make sure that all of the athletes

:10:36.:10:38.

are protected as well. Meanwhile, Britain's medal

:10:39.:10:40.

:10:41.:10:43.

of Kyle Langford's life. Bronze eluding him in the 800

didn't mean to interrupt you. That's fine, Dan.

:11:24.:11:26.

Tributes are being paid to one of the most successful American

:11:27.:11:29.

singers, Glen Campbell, who's died six years after revealing

:11:30.:11:31.

As a session musician Glen Campbell played on hundreds

:11:32.:11:51.

of recordings before his career as a singer took off.

:11:52.:11:53.

He was best known for hits including Rhinestone Cowboy

:11:54.:11:55.

Dolly Parton said he had "one of the greatest voices of all time".

:11:56.:12:01.

A few months ago, Glen's daughter Ashley told Breakfast her father

:12:02.:12:04.

wanted to carry on making music as long as he could.

:12:05.:12:07.

He literally said that and he said I want to keep doing what I love.

:12:08.:12:18.

I've got an album to promote and I love performing for people.

:12:19.:12:22.

He just said I'm going to do it for as long as I can.

:12:23.:12:25.

Some lovely tributes. This one is from Louise, "When I was 16, I went

:12:26.:12:33.

to an album signing he was doing in Toronto. I was there to get

:12:34.:12:38.

interviewed for a school newspaper. He said, "I have got a conference to

:12:39.:12:43.

go to. Would you like to come with me? He took me into the press

:12:44.:12:49.

conference as part of his entourage. He was at the height of his fame. He

:12:50.:12:55.

gave me an interview for our local school newspaper. His actions spoke

:12:56.:13:00.

for a kind person who never lost sight of who he was. ."

:13:01.:13:09.

We will talk more about that with Chris Stevens later.

:13:10.:13:12.

Today marks the tenth anniversary of the start of the biggest

:13:13.:13:15.

financial crash since the Great Depression.

:13:16.:13:19.

It all began when the banks started to realise that they had

:13:20.:13:22.

They had been giving out high-risk loans to people

:13:23.:13:25.

But when the banks realised they had no idea what these loans were worth,

:13:26.:13:30.

and whether they would ever be paid back, the financial system froze.

:13:31.:13:33.

Here in the UK, we saw banks like Bradford Bingley,

:13:34.:13:35.

Northern Rock, RBS and Lloyds get into real trouble and billions

:13:36.:13:39.

of pounds of taxpayers' money was pumped in to try to save them.

:13:40.:13:42.

Money across the world became tight, banks were worried about lending.

:13:43.:13:46.

So to try to help, interest rates were slashed, with the Bank

:13:47.:13:57.

of England base rate cut from 6% to just 0.5%.

:13:58.:13:59.

Since the crisis, banks have to hold more capital for emergencies

:14:00.:14:02.

and the lending rules have been tightened up.

:14:03.:14:04.

But the big question is - ten years on, have we learned

:14:05.:14:07.

the lessons and could it happen again?

:14:08.:14:09.

Steph's here along with Claer Barrett, the personal finance

:14:10.:14:11.

Good morning. You have been talking about how the system has moved on

:14:12.:14:21.

and we are going to be asking that question ten years on... We have

:14:22.:14:25.

been talking. We have been financial journalists for sometime and we were

:14:26.:14:28.

talking about where we were when it happened because it is one of those

:14:29.:14:32.

things where you go, where were you when the credit crunch started? I

:14:33.:14:36.

was working with Robert Peston at the time when he was our business

:14:37.:14:40.

editor and you know it was a time when everyone suddenly thought oh my

:14:41.:14:44.

godness, none of us knows what's going to happen next. We talked

:14:45.:14:48.

about the banks suddenly realising they had this debt. They lent out

:14:49.:14:53.

too much money to people they didn't think could pay it back. This

:14:54.:14:57.

happened in America and this had been put into complex products which

:14:58.:15:01.

were sold to investors and the long shot was no one had a clue what was

:15:02.:15:05.

going to happen next. I remember times when even the Chancellor was

:15:06.:15:09.

ringing us to ask us what we knew on the news! Richard Branson was

:15:10.:15:14.

ringing us to ask us what was going on with Northern Rock and Virgin

:15:15.:15:18.

Money. What have we learnt? There has been a lot of work done on

:15:19.:15:22.

making sure the intRantion got the money now. They have got greater

:15:23.:15:25.

capital requirements so we don't have problems if there is ever a run

:15:26.:15:29.

on the banks again. So they have had to do that. They have had to make

:15:30.:15:32.

sure they have more money in the coffers. You remember the Northern

:15:33.:15:37.

Rock pictures of people queuing, because they were panicking and

:15:38.:15:42.

interest rates are incredibly low. This issing with Clare talks a lot

:15:43.:15:46.

about. It is the fact that it is cheap to borrow money and that's the

:15:47.:15:49.

danger still. We are in a lot of debt.

:15:50.:15:52.

It was all of a sudden business news, some people used to switch off

:15:53.:16:02.

that but it became important because it affected house prices, your

:16:03.:16:06.

mortgage, pensions. The key difference about this credit crisis

:16:07.:16:12.

related to others, you mentioned the great depression, this was global.

:16:13.:16:16.

It did not just affect the UK or America, it started to affect Asia.

:16:17.:16:23.

People were thinking, will it go away it didn't, it got worse, and it

:16:24.:16:28.

showed the global financial system was interconnected and what we have

:16:29.:16:31.

seen the last ten years is regulators around the world, UK, US,

:16:32.:16:39.

Europe, further afield, putting new rules to try to make banks and

:16:40.:16:43.

financial institutions take fewer risks. It has created an unnatural

:16:44.:16:49.

environment and if we return to the UK, look at what has happened to

:16:50.:16:53.

interest rates. The credit crunch personally has been good for me and

:16:54.:16:58.

Steph, we are journalists and our careers have blossomed. I bought a

:16:59.:17:03.

flat in London before mortgage lending was restricted. I only

:17:04.:17:09.

needed a deposit of ?1000. If I bought the same flat, even though my

:17:10.:17:14.

salary and house prices have gone up three times, I would need a deposit

:17:15.:17:25.

of ?100,000 to buy the same flat. Because I bought it, my mortgage is

:17:26.:17:28.

cheap and I am lucky. If I wanted to rent in my building, the rent would

:17:29.:17:31.

be three times as much as the mortgage I was paying because I took

:17:32.:17:34.

get out when lending the scarily cheap and banks have had to keep

:17:35.:17:38.

interest rates are at rock bottom levels to make sure there is not a

:17:39.:17:43.

wave of mass defaults. You think it was ten years ago, but we are still

:17:44.:17:48.

paying the price. Young people are still paying the price. Anybody who

:17:49.:17:53.

graduated ten years after Steph and I would have had a low-wage, waited

:17:54.:17:58.

longer for a job. You look at the economy and think yes, fewer people

:17:59.:18:02.

are claiming unemployment benefit, but a lot of the jobs are insecure.

:18:03.:18:08.

The gig economy sounds fun and sexy, but if you do not get a pension and

:18:09.:18:14.

holiday pay, you are on a lower rank of the market. Also quantitative

:18:15.:18:20.

easing, it rolls off the time. I was at a financial news Channel at the

:18:21.:18:27.

time and we all said quantitative easing, sub-prime. Common language.

:18:28.:18:35.

Debt obligations. Claer, Steph, thanks. We can talk to Carol and see

:18:36.:18:42.

if there is any quantitative easing in the clouds!

:18:43.:18:48.

Good morning, look at this beautiful picture. Cumbria. Lovely Lake

:18:49.:18:55.

Windermere and blue skies. In contrast, you move to Shropshire and

:18:56.:18:59.

you have rain. We have that contrast today going on with the weather with

:19:00.:19:04.

high-pressure establishing over the North, which means fine and settled

:19:05.:19:08.

but a weather front moving south-eastwards. Taking heavy rain

:19:09.:19:14.

with it. To start the day, although bright in the far south-east, as

:19:15.:19:17.

temperatures rise, thundery downpours develop and they will join

:19:18.:19:23.

forces with the rain. It will be a wet afternoon in the south-eastern

:19:24.:19:28.

quarter. Especially East Anglia and the south-east. Brightening up

:19:29.:19:33.

behind. Over most of North of England, northern and western parts

:19:34.:19:37.

of Wales and eventually south-west England, but Northern Ireland and

:19:38.:19:40.

Scotland and the far north of northern England will start on a

:19:41.:19:44.

sunny note and carry on with that. With gentle breezes and temperatures

:19:45.:19:51.

up to 20, maybe 21, it will feel pleasant. Brightening up again

:19:52.:19:55.

across the North Midlands, North Wales, and then we move into rain

:19:56.:20:00.

moving south-eastwards. It will brighten up later across the

:20:01.:20:03.

south-west of England and you will have a fine end to the afternoon.

:20:04.:20:09.

Rain running up through the Channel Islands, heading towards East Anglia

:20:10.:20:13.

and down into the south-east and joining forces with showers. Heavy,

:20:14.:20:18.

thundery downpours. Something to bear in mind if you're travelling

:20:19.:20:22.

because it could lead to disruption with surface water flooding. As we

:20:23.:20:29.

head on, overnight the same band of rain drifting down. Where we have

:20:30.:20:34.

late rain, we can see patchy mist and fog. For most of the UK it will

:20:35.:20:40.

be a dry night. These temperatures represent towns and cities and in

:20:41.:20:45.

rural areas it will be a bit cooler. You can see cloud and rain coming in

:20:46.:20:50.

over the far north as Scotland because this area of low pressure is

:20:51.:20:53.

trying to penetrate high-pressure, going over the top and depositing

:20:54.:20:58.

the rain. It will do the same tomorrow. The North of Scotland it

:20:59.:21:04.

will be a different day to the one you are having today. For most of

:21:05.:21:09.

the UK tomorrow it will be a dry day when we lose the rain from the

:21:10.:21:13.

south-east. If you are in England and Wales, you will notice the

:21:14.:21:19.

difference. It will feel better and there will be sunshine. On Friday,

:21:20.:21:23.

by the time the rain gets into southern counties it will be a weak

:21:24.:21:30.

feature. On Saturday, dry, with sunny spells, good news if you have

:21:31.:21:35.

been under that deluge of rain. I was under a deluge yesterday.

:21:36.:21:41.

Soggy trainers. Very squelchy and soggy.

:21:42.:21:47.

Tasked with winning six to eight medals at this year's

:21:48.:21:50.

World Championships, the British team is currently

:21:51.:21:51.

But there have been plenty of near misses.

:21:52.:21:56.

In the 800m final last night, Kyle Langford lost out on a bronze

:21:57.:21:59.

Kyle joins us now from the London Stadium, along

:22:00.:22:05.

with Laura Weightman, who came sixth in the 1500m

:22:06.:22:07.

Good morning, thank you for getting up early to talk to us. Kyle

:22:08.:22:18.

Langford, we will see pictures at the end of the 800th. Talk is

:22:19.:22:23.

through what was going through your mind. Immediately you look at the

:22:24.:22:27.

screen. Did you think you might have just got third? It was funny because

:22:28.:22:36.

I was driving down the home straight and looking at the athletes and

:22:37.:22:43.

counting how many. Four, five. I am trying to count. As I did, I

:22:44.:22:49.

thought, hopefully, I was praying, I thought my chest might have got it

:22:50.:22:53.

because I was looking to the athlete who got third and had an inkling I

:22:54.:22:55.

did not get it. It was gutting. I was looking at the screen and

:22:56.:23:07.

hoped my chest went ahead of his but it was gutting. A brilliant

:23:08.:23:14.

performance. Laura, sixth in the 1500 final, in which Laura Muir

:23:15.:23:18.

finished fourth. Your coach Steve Cram described the performance are

:23:19.:23:23.

superb at sixth place, there must be some disappointment with that, as

:23:24.:23:28.

well. I think as an athlete you always want more and do better. If I

:23:29.:23:32.

look at the high quality and strength in depth in the 1500 metres

:23:33.:23:37.

in the world, to make the final and be competitive, I am happy. You

:23:38.:23:43.

always want more. How well these girls are running, to be that

:23:44.:23:47.

competitive, I was pleased with the performance and coming back in the

:23:48.:23:51.

future it gives you believe you can be more competitive on the world

:23:52.:23:57.

stage. Laura, it is easy for presenters to sit and say, why are

:23:58.:24:03.

we not winning more medals? Do you as athletes? Is it part of your

:24:04.:24:10.

discussion? There is a target of six - eight to win in this

:24:11.:24:13.

Championships. There is the target and it is home games and it has

:24:14.:24:17.

lifted the team and we have brilliant performances and is fine

:24:18.:24:22.

margins. It is the world stage and you have to have everything 100%

:24:23.:24:28.

right. Callum Hawkins fourth in a marathon, Laura Muir, I was in the

:24:29.:24:32.

top six. We have more performances to come and more athletes coming

:24:33.:24:36.

through and fingers crossed, more performances through the week and we

:24:37.:24:41.

hope as a team we can keep on putting in performances like that.

:24:42.:24:45.

Kyle, you are 21. I read some quotes from you. You athletes are humble.

:24:46.:24:53.

But I know you have big plans for your career. How good do you think

:24:54.:25:01.

you can be? It is that cliche, the sky is the limit. I really think

:25:02.:25:08.

that for me is what it is. I have said for a long time, I want to come

:25:09.:25:13.

to London and come out with a medal, make the final. People say, you need

:25:14.:25:18.

to be realistic, just get there, it will be amazing. But I set my sights

:25:19.:25:23.

high. I would love to come out with a medal today, or yesterday. I set

:25:24.:25:31.

my sights high. I like to do everything, surpass Mo Farah and the

:25:32.:25:36.

likes of Seb Coe. I set my goal is really high. I think I can do it.

:25:37.:25:46.

Nothing wrong with high goals? Nothing wrong with high goals. It is

:25:47.:25:52.

achievable. It is not out of my reach. I have to keep training hard,

:25:53.:25:57.

stay humble and keep striving forward, and just enjoy the sport.

:25:58.:26:01.

That is what I have learned, I really love competing. As

:26:02.:26:11.

nerve-racking as it is. The crowd are crazy. The reception after the

:26:12.:26:15.

final yesterday, it has been amazing. You looked like you enjoyed

:26:16.:26:22.

it. Laura, the major story, the norovirus and various athletes

:26:23.:26:27.

struck down, including Isaac Makwala, who was not able to run and

:26:28.:26:33.

many felt he had a good chance for a medal. Is that something athletes

:26:34.:26:38.

are taking extra care with? It is a tough situation. Doctors are looking

:26:39.:26:44.

after the team and we have been strongly advised to keep on top of

:26:45.:26:52.

things, use the hand sanitiser. It is tough. All the athletes coming

:26:53.:26:57.

together and put in hotels and these things can easily travel around the

:26:58.:27:01.

teams. In our hotel, the signs are good and everybody is healthy and

:27:02.:27:05.

well and you have to keep an eye on yourself. Have you had breakfast

:27:06.:27:13.

yet? I have not had breakfast. I was told I was going to get breakfast

:27:14.:27:19.

but I have not had it yet, but I am waiting. Enjoy the rest of the World

:27:20.:27:23.

Championships. Peanut butter on toast. Who knows

:27:24.:27:25.

what they are eating. I'm back with the latest from BBC

:27:26.:30:49.

London News in half an hour. Now, though, it's

:30:50.:30:53.

back to Naga and Dan. Hello, this is Breakfast

:30:54.:30:55.

with Dan Walker and Naga Munchetty. These are the main stories at

:30:56.:31:05.

8:30am... Tensions between the US

:31:06.:31:07.

and North Korea have Pyongyang says it's

:31:08.:31:09.

considering launching a ballistic missile strike close to the US

:31:10.:31:12.

military base on Guam President Trump has declared

:31:13.:31:15.

that any further threats from the North Koreans will be met

:31:16.:31:25.

with a devastating response. North Korea best not make any more

:31:26.:31:28.

threats to the United States. They will be met with fire and fury

:31:29.:31:31.

like the world has never seen. He has been very threatening, beyond

:31:32.:31:45.

a normal state, and as I said they will be met with fire, fury, and

:31:46.:31:51.

frankly power, the likes of which this world has never seen before.

:31:52.:31:55.

Some breaking news this morning from Paris.

:31:56.:32:00.

Reports say that French soldiers have been hit by a vehicle

:32:01.:32:03.

in a suburb in the north-west of the city.

:32:04.:32:05.

French Radio says several people have been injured.

:32:06.:32:07.

Officials say police are now looking for the vehicle.

:32:08.:32:09.

As you will expect we will get you as much news on that as we have as

:32:10.:32:15.

we get it this morning, but just to let you know that is new coming to

:32:16.:32:22.

us from France this morning. 8:32am is the time.

:32:23.:32:24.

500 new medical school places will be made available

:32:25.:32:27.

in England next year, as the government attempts to boost

:32:28.:32:29.

the number of home-grown doctors in the NHS.

:32:30.:32:31.

The target is to increase the total number of training places

:32:32.:32:34.

by a quarter by 2020, to help ease staffing pressures.

:32:35.:32:36.

The British Medical Association says it won't address

:32:37.:32:38.

Earlier on Breakfast, the Health Minister Philip Dunne

:32:39.:32:42.

admitted there are pressure points on NHS services.

:32:43.:32:46.

We recognise there are pressures on doctors and

:32:47.:32:48.

That's why we've been increasing the number of doctors working

:32:49.:32:54.

There are today some 11,800 more doctors than there were in 2010,

:32:55.:33:01.

There are some pressure points in certain specialties,

:33:02.:33:06.

and part of today's announcement is to make sure that we recruit

:33:07.:33:09.

into specialties where there are shortages.

:33:10.:33:13.

Children's services are being "pushed to breaking point" due

:33:14.:33:19.

to increased demand and cuts in council budgets, according

:33:20.:33:21.

The LGA says three quarters of English councils overspent

:33:22.:33:25.

on child social care by a total of more than ?500 million

:33:26.:33:27.

A Government spokesman said councils would receive around ?200 billion

:33:28.:33:31.

Councils are facing a double whammy, a big cut in government grants,

:33:32.:33:44.

and also a big increase in the number of vulnerable children

:33:45.:33:47.

So we are saying there's going to be a ?2 billion gap by the end of this

:33:48.:33:54.

decade in the amount of money councils need, compared

:33:55.:33:56.

to the amount of money councils have got.

:33:57.:33:58.

That's going to lead to big problems in making sure that we can keep

:33:59.:34:01.

children safe in the way that members of the public

:34:02.:34:04.

Tributes are being paid to one of the most successful American

:34:05.:34:07.

singers, Glen Campbell, who's died six years after revealing

:34:08.:34:10.

As a session musician Glen Campbell played on hundreds

:34:11.:34:32.

of recordings before his career as a singer took off.

:34:33.:34:34.

He was best known for hits including Rhinestone Cowboy

:34:35.:34:36.

Dolly Parton said he had "one of the greatest voices of all time."

:34:37.:34:44.

A few months ago, Glen's daughter Ashley told Breakfast her father

:34:45.:34:46.

wanted to carry on making music as long as he could.

:34:47.:34:56.

He said, I feel fine, he literally said that,

:34:57.:34:58.

and he said I want to keep doing what I love, I want to keep touring,

:34:59.:35:02.

I've got an album to promote, and I love performing for people.

:35:03.:35:05.

So, he just said I'm going to do it as long as I can.

:35:06.:35:09.

Some lovely tributes come again. Really lovely. Many people who met

:35:10.:35:13.

him when he was on tour to the UK, seeing what a genuinely nice man he

:35:14.:35:16.

was when they met him face to face. We will be talking to journalists

:35:17.:35:17.

about his career a little later. Coming up here on Breakfast

:35:18.:35:26.

this morning... # Like a Rhinestone Cowboy... #.

:35:27.:35:37.

I don't think we will hear enough of Glen Campbell this morning.

:35:38.:35:40.

We'll look back at the life and music of the original

:35:41.:35:42.

Rhinestone Cowboy, the legendary Glen Campbell.

:35:43.:35:44.

We'll also hear how the stunning natural beauty of Skye is attracting

:35:45.:35:47.

so many tourists the island is being pushed to breaking point.

:35:48.:35:49.

And we'll be on our best behaviour with comedian Danny Wallace who says

:35:50.:35:52.

we should all be worried by the rise of rudeness.

:35:53.:35:55.

I'm a bit worried! Honestly, are lot of Glen Campbell tributes today, but

:35:56.:36:04.

rudeness has just kicked things off back. And the things people get

:36:05.:36:09.

annoyed about. Normal things, but some quite odd things. You can also

:36:10.:36:13.

tell when people care as well, because people are sending in

:36:14.:36:26.

obviously loads of tweets and social media comments, but you can see that

:36:27.:36:32.

people are saying via queueing and issues around that annoy them so

:36:33.:36:36.

much. Yes. Lovely to work with you once again. Marvellous! I was hoping

:36:37.:36:42.

for a hug, but nothing there. Thank you for being with us, Jess,

:36:43.:36:46.

bringing us the sport from the stadium! An absolute pleasure, Naga,

:36:47.:36:52.

a privilege to be here. Yes, thousands of fans packed into

:36:53.:37:01.

the stadium to see one of the most eagerly anticipated races of this

:37:02.:37:06.

championship, the men's 400 metres final, but much of the build-up was

:37:07.:37:10.

whether the Botswana athlete Isaac Makwala would actually be allowed to

:37:11.:37:14.

compete in that final, and as we have been hearing on Breakfast all

:37:15.:37:17.

morning, he was actually not allowed to take part.

:37:18.:37:24.

Makwala was affected by a stomach bug and was withdrawn from the race

:37:25.:37:27.

by IAAF medical staff as Public Health England guidelines

:37:28.:37:30.

recommend people with such an illness should be quarantined

:37:31.:37:32.

Makwala was believed to have been one of the athletes who could have

:37:33.:37:36.

mounted a serious challenge in the race to South

:37:37.:37:38.

But in his absence, the Olympic champion and world record holder

:37:39.:37:43.

came through to comfortably take Gold and retain his title.

:37:44.:37:51.

And Van Niekerk had sympathy for his rival after the race.

:37:52.:37:54.

I would love him to have his fair opportunity.

:37:55.:37:57.

I believe he would have done very well this championships and,

:37:58.:38:03.

like I said earlier, I've got so much sympathy for him.

:38:04.:38:17.

I really wish I could even give him my medal,

:38:18.:38:19.

There was a thrilling performance from Britain's Kyle Langford

:38:20.:38:27.

The 21-year-old missed out a medal by four hundredths of a second

:38:28.:38:31.

after a sprint for the line in the home straight.

:38:32.:38:33.

He qualified for the final as the slowest athlete in the field

:38:34.:38:36.

but came oh-so-close to winning a bronze medal.

:38:37.:38:39.

Let's bring you up to date with the rest of the sport now,

:38:40.:38:45.

and Manchester United were beaten 2-1 by European champions Real

:38:46.:38:47.

Real took a deserved 2-0 lead early into the second half,

:38:48.:38:51.

and although Romelu Lukaku pulled a goal back for United,

:38:52.:38:53.

they couldn't stop the Spanish side lifting the Super Cup

:38:54.:38:56.

The women's Rugby World Cup gets underway in Dublin later this

:38:57.:39:09.

afternoon. All the teams will be competing today and I believe

:39:10.:39:12.

Catherine Downes is their for us keeping a watchful eye on all the

:39:13.:39:21.

action. Yes, I am in Dublin, Jess. England open the tournament at two

:39:22.:39:24.

o'clock this afternoon, defending champions of the world's number one

:39:25.:39:28.

Test side, and they have a match against Spain this afternoon. Three

:39:29.:39:31.

of the reasons why they are favourites to win. Another is the

:39:32.:39:36.

other only fully professional side here at the World Cup. Many other

:39:37.:39:40.

players have to fit in training and competing around full-time jobs. The

:39:41.:39:44.

Ireland captain for example, Claire Molloy, she got the call to say she

:39:45.:39:48.

would be replacing the injured captain Niamh Briggs as the Ireland

:39:49.:39:53.

captain here at their home World Cup while she was working in her day job

:39:54.:39:57.

as an A doctor. Hughes what she had to say about it yesterday. Quite

:39:58.:40:03.

overwhelming, to be honest. I was at work at the time, finishing off back

:40:04.:40:08.

the shift, and the girls were thinking, she has gone very serious

:40:09.:40:11.

and the girls were thinking, she has gone very serious now, because it

:40:12.:40:16.

was all good buys. An honour to be asked, but this is a

:40:17.:40:19.

high-performance sport and these things do happen so I could step up

:40:20.:40:23.

and really honoured to do so just happy to be part of the squad of 20

:40:24.:40:31.

players. Ireland play Australia at seven o'clock tonight and the party

:40:32.:40:34.

will get started well before that. Wales have a difficult one for their

:40:35.:40:38.

opening match taking on the four-time world champions New

:40:39.:40:40.

Zealand, and there is a really interesting dynamic to look out for

:40:41.:40:44.

in the Welsh squad. What goes on tour stays on tour, rate? Not in the

:40:45.:40:49.

case of the Welsh captain, because her dad is the team's Korczyk, so

:40:50.:40:53.

she has to take him everywhere she goes, and I caught up with her

:40:54.:41:04.

yesterday. -- her dad is the team's coach. We get to do this for all the

:41:05.:41:13.

family, it is good terms. How do you feel doing this for your daughter as

:41:14.:41:19.

well as the country? Hopefully now she will listen. No, it has been

:41:20.:41:23.

fine. As you can imagine probably not the first day we have been asked

:41:24.:41:26.

this type of question but, you know, we're here to do a job. She knows

:41:27.:41:31.

that and the rest know that as well. I know that as well. There is enough

:41:32.:41:36.

work to do here to be worried about our personal relationship. You would

:41:37.:41:43.

hope, wouldn't you, Jess, that if Wales can pull of mica huge upset in

:41:44.:41:47.

Dublin and win their opening match, you might just let her out for a bit

:41:48.:41:50.

of a celebration! LAUGHTER

:41:51.:41:55.

Definitely. Thanks for bringing us up-to-date with the women's Rugby.

:41:56.:42:02.

Back at the London stadium and the former British 400 metre Alison

:42:03.:42:09.

joins me. As I was saying, this yesterday was one of the highlights

:42:10.:42:11.

of the competition, at least it was meant to be. The men's 400 metre

:42:12.:42:16.

final but so much of that build-up was not about -- so much of that

:42:17.:42:23.

build-up was about Isaac Makwala. And whether he would be able to

:42:24.:42:30.

compete. How well do you think that IAAF have handled this? You're

:42:31.:42:35.

right, it was the contradiction that was frustrating. We were on the

:42:36.:42:38.

programme constantly hearing his message and seen the video on

:42:39.:42:41.

Twitter. It was bizarre, when he turned up at the warm up track and

:42:42.:42:47.

was refused entry. I think the IAAF, if this happens again, I would

:42:48.:42:49.

expect it to pan out very differently. Clearly what he is

:42:50.:42:54.

saying and the medical team are saying our two very different

:42:55.:42:59.

stories. They are saying he presented himself having vomited a

:43:00.:43:02.

couple of times the night before, showing symptoms of the Nora virus,

:43:03.:43:07.

and of course with the Public Health England suggestion, they recommended

:43:08.:43:11.

the team quarantine, and that clearly was not done because he was

:43:12.:43:14.

walking around yesterday doing interviews. Bizarre, the best way I

:43:15.:43:19.

can describe it. Yes, the IAAF have a responsibility to the other

:43:20.:43:22.

athletes here, and their recommendation. They can't imprison

:43:23.:43:26.

him, and apart from saying to the team, you know, quarantine him,

:43:27.:43:30.

which they clearly did not feel was needed, has he got it or hasn't he?

:43:31.:43:35.

That is where we were left. And you have to feel for him slightly. He

:43:36.:43:39.

said he was OK to the race and the IAAF said no. As a former athlete

:43:40.:43:42.

yourself, if you're been stopped from racing in a final, how would

:43:43.:43:48.

feel? I can feel his frustration and I think at the point when he

:43:49.:43:51.

presented himself and they did all of the physical tests, they looked

:43:52.:43:54.

at him and he was showing the sides of having the Nora virus, I think it

:43:55.:43:58.

then dawned on him, this is serious, and when they spoke about having to

:43:59.:44:02.

quarantine him for 48 hours I think at that point it is when the

:44:03.:44:06.

Botswana team said, hang on a minute, took their checks, and of

:44:07.:44:17.

course he said, I am feeling all right and any athlete would, anyone

:44:18.:44:20.

in that position. And it is not any athlete but a guy who seriously

:44:21.:44:22.

could have pushed Van Niekerk. Only two weeks and Juan Monaco he pushed

:44:23.:44:25.

all the way to the line at the Diamond league, -- only two weeks

:44:26.:44:29.

ago in Monaco he pushed him all the way. It was a difficult night. For

:44:30.:44:35.

British fans, a brilliant performance from Kyle Langford. I

:44:36.:44:41.

know you were impressed with her coming sixth in the world stage,

:44:42.:44:54.

Laura Muir. Yes, the women's 50 by far, the strength and depth was

:44:55.:44:57.

there in that event. To see two women in the top six, phenomenal,

:44:58.:45:00.

and then Kyle Langford last night, the one-man who was not expected,

:45:01.:45:07.

ranked 40th coming into the championships, a real experience for

:45:08.:45:11.

him. With other athletes failing to get through, you know, the Americans

:45:12.:45:15.

have been a force this year and all three failed to get into the final,

:45:16.:45:21.

so it was, hang on, the door is for Kyle, and I don't think you would

:45:22.:45:24.

have done anything different had he had a run that race again. He did

:45:25.:45:30.

everything tactically perfect. Thank you so much for joining us on BBC

:45:31.:45:34.

Breakfast, always a pleasure. What a thrilling race it was, and more for

:45:35.:45:39.

British fans to cheer this evening because Mo Farah will be on the

:45:40.:45:43.

track. I will look forward to that one.

:45:44.:45:43.

STUDIO: We all will be! More on reports from Paris that

:45:44.:45:53.

several French soldiers have been hit by a vehicle in the north-west

:45:54.:45:58.

of the city. French radio says a number of people have been injured.

:45:59.:46:03.

Our correspondent is on the line from Paris. This is coming through

:46:04.:46:06.

in the last few minutes, what more had he been able to get in terms of

:46:07.:46:12.

information? It appears six soldiers who are part of what is called

:46:13.:46:22.

operation Sentinel, six soldiers have been injured after a car rammed

:46:23.:46:28.

into their patrol. Four of them lightly injured, two seriously

:46:29.:46:31.

injured. The car and its driver is being searched for in a large and

:46:32.:46:38.

serious police operation. The mayor of the suburb which is to the

:46:39.:46:45.

north-west of Paris, he has said this is definitely an intentional

:46:46.:46:50.

attack. It comes fairly hard on the heels of a series of attacks in

:46:51.:46:55.

Paris right up to the point of the election in May. The variety of

:46:56.:47:02.

attacks that have taken the form of knife attacks and gun attacks. This

:47:03.:47:08.

appears to be a vehicle ramming incident. Perhaps a surprising

:47:09.:47:12.

location. It's a very densely populated suburb, at the moment we

:47:13.:47:17.

know six have been injured, two seriously and a manhunt is under

:47:18.:47:22.

way. This suburb in the west of Paris as you mentioned. Can you give

:47:23.:47:26.

us some background on what the security alert level is at the

:47:27.:47:33.

moment in France? It's pretty high. What you notice across Paris and

:47:34.:47:37.

major points of population across France soldiers. Heavily armed

:47:38.:47:43.

soldiers on patrol constantly. Wherever people gather, you will see

:47:44.:47:49.

armed soldiers. It's a big change from 10-15 years ago. It's something

:47:50.:47:53.

Christians and people in the big cities of France have now got used

:47:54.:48:00.

to. It is quite a sight and it's not rare now, it's the same in Belgium

:48:01.:48:05.

as well, where attacks have taken place you see heavily armed soldiers

:48:06.:48:10.

on patrol. It now appears those soldiers have become a target. There

:48:11.:48:15.

is now a police operation underway to try and find the vehicle and the

:48:16.:48:22.

driver of the vehicle. This happened around 45 minutes ago, it's a fairly

:48:23.:48:26.

urgent operations. Thank you. Of course there will be much more on

:48:27.:48:29.

that incident with the updates coming through throughout the

:48:30.:48:33.

morning with our correspondence on the BBC News Channel.

:48:34.:48:37.

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

:48:38.:48:41.

This morning some of us have got some rain, some have got some

:48:42.:48:47.

sunshine. The further north you more likely to have pictures like this

:48:48.:48:52.

like this. This beautiful one shows lovely blue skies. As become further

:48:53.:48:56.

south into East Yorkshire, we have some rain and then south again it's

:48:57.:49:01.

been a misty start across parts of ethics. There is still some sunshine

:49:02.:49:05.

at the moment in Kent. We've got high pressure over the UK keeping

:49:06.:49:10.

things settled. This weather fronts sinking south is producing the rain.

:49:11.:49:15.

You can see where we've got the brighter skies in the south-east, as

:49:16.:49:19.

the rain continues to move down towards the south-east. The

:49:20.:49:23.

temperature is 14 Celsius. As soon as that hits 15 will see the cloud

:49:24.:49:27.

built. As temperatures continue to rise in the south-east we are

:49:28.:49:32.

looking at further showers. Joining forces with this rain. Behind it, it

:49:33.:49:37.

is going to brighten up and more of us will see some sunshine through

:49:38.:49:40.

the day. That will be the case across Scotland. We start off with

:49:41.:49:45.

some sunshine and the few showers. We'll hang on to the sunshine

:49:46.:49:48.

through the day. Glasgow and Edinburgh could hit 21. For Northern

:49:49.:49:53.

Ireland and northern England, we are off to a sunny start. The Cabinet

:49:54.:49:58.

brightens up as we go through the day. The rain pushes away dragging

:49:59.:50:03.

its cloud behind it. For Wales we are looking at a sunny afternoon.

:50:04.:50:07.

Later on in the day, it will brighten up across south-west

:50:08.:50:10.

England. We've got all this rain moving towards the south-east,

:50:11.:50:14.

joining forces with the shower which are yet to develop. That could lead

:50:15.:50:19.

to some disruption. There will be some heavy, thundery downpours. If

:50:20.:50:22.

you are travelling, bear that in mind. The areas most at risk of East

:50:23.:50:29.

Anglia and south-east England. There could be some surface water issues

:50:30.:50:32.

with flooding for example. Overnight, the rain weakening as it

:50:33.:50:35.

continues to push through the rest of East Anglia and into Kent. Behind

:50:36.:50:40.

it where we've had some afternoon and late evening rainfall, patchy

:50:41.:50:44.

mist and fog forming. For most of us it will be dry. These temperatures

:50:45.:50:48.

represent towns and cities. In rural areas it will be lower than this. We

:50:49.:50:53.

also have this weather front attached to the low pressure which

:50:54.:50:56.

is trying to penetrate the high-pressure. It isn't working at

:50:57.:51:00.

this stage. During the course of tomorrow that means the cloud will

:51:01.:51:04.

continue to build in the north and north-west of Scotland. The islands

:51:05.:51:07.

will see some rain. Moving away from there and we are back into sunshine.

:51:08.:51:12.

The rain in the south-east pulling away. A wholly different day for

:51:13.:51:18.

England and Wales. This rainfall is sinking south during the course of

:51:19.:51:24.

Friday, by the time it gets into the South it will weaken and Saturday

:51:25.:51:28.

and Sunday are looking largely dry with sunny spells.

:51:29.:51:37.

Glen Campbell, the indelible voice behind country hits such

:51:38.:51:40.

as Rhinestone Cowboy and Wichita Lineman,

:51:41.:51:41.

Campbell had a discography unlike any other, releasing

:51:42.:51:45.

more than 70 albums during an illustrious

:51:46.:51:47.

Wichita Lineman - it's wide open spaces, yearning,

:51:48.:52:12.

loneliness, America turned into song.

:52:13.:52:15.

But what truly made it a masterpiece was the voice of Glen Campbell.

:52:16.:52:23.

# I hear you singing in the wire...#.

:52:24.:52:25.

He had been born in Billstown, Arkansas, a large, poor

:52:26.:52:27.

His escape was his Uncle Boo, who taught him to play guitar.

:52:28.:52:39.

I don't remember not having a guitar or a musical instrument in my hand.

:52:40.:52:48.

He bought me a guitar. The rope went around the hole in the guitar. The

:52:49.:52:53.

string was about that high off of the neck. I found out real quick

:52:54.:52:58.

that it was lighter than pulling a cotton sack or ploughing.

:52:59.:53:03.

He could play anything and ended up singing on TV shows

:53:04.:53:07.

and on hundreds of singles with the session

:53:08.:53:09.

musicians the Wrecking Crew, Phil Spector songs, the Righteous

:53:10.:53:11.

Brothers, Frank Sinatra, it was Glenn Campbell on guitar.

:53:12.:53:13.

And eventually, a breakthrough hit of his own.

:53:14.:53:17.

# Gentle on my mind...#.

:53:18.:53:21.

But it was the partnership with songwriter Jimmy Webb that

:53:22.:53:24.

gave him his career-defining songs By The Time

:53:25.:53:26.

Clean cut, conservative, he was suddenly

:53:27.:53:38.

country music's biggest star, with his own TV show.

:53:39.:53:41.

# But I'm going to be where the lights

:53:42.:53:50.

Rhinestone Cowboy was a glorious return to form after a dip

:53:51.:53:56.

in his fortunes that had taken place in the '70s.

:53:57.:53:59.

But his personal life was far from glorious.

:54:00.:54:10.

I think I probably just quit letting God run my life and I actually

:54:11.:54:14.

just got into the drugs and the booze pretty heavy.

:54:15.:54:19.

# I am a lineman for the county, and I...

:54:20.:54:21.

That slight stumble over the words, it was

:54:22.:54:29.

He'd long put his wild days behind him, but

:54:30.:54:37.

What stayed with him when so much else had gone was the music.

:54:38.:54:47.

It's a great reminder of some of the amazing music he'd produced.

:54:48.:55:05.

Joining us now to look back at Glen Campbell's

:55:06.:55:07.

life is Chris Stevens, who is a country music DJ

:55:08.:55:09.

You play music from the likes of Glenn Campbell. You fell in love

:55:10.:55:20.

with country music when you were living in America and he's been a

:55:21.:55:24.

huge part of that. Absolutely. He's one of those legendary singers along

:55:25.:55:29.

with Dolly Parton, Kenny Rogers and Johnny Cash. The passion and the

:55:30.:55:34.

soul that goes into the performances is incredible. Dolly Parton said one

:55:35.:55:39.

of the sweetest almost incredible voices the music industry has heard.

:55:40.:55:44.

I think what people really enjoyed about Glenn Campbell is that he

:55:45.:55:48.

grafted his way through the music industry. It wasn't instant success,

:55:49.:55:53.

he was a session singer for a long time. That's right. He played on

:55:54.:56:01.

sessions for Elvis, he was on the Pet Sounds album. He worked really

:56:02.:56:06.

hard writing songs as well and the hard work paid off. Wended his big

:56:07.:56:12.

break on? In the 60s he was writing songs and making demos and that's

:56:13.:56:16.

where his voice was being heard around the place. As well as his

:56:17.:56:21.

incredible guitar playing. As David Sillito said, there was a time when

:56:22.:56:26.

his star fell and he had problems with drink and drugs. 45 million

:56:27.:56:30.

records sold, six Grammy awards, yes there was a dip but there was such a

:56:31.:56:37.

longevity to his career as well. Completely. What is so great to see

:56:38.:56:41.

is that even when things were getting tough towards the end, he

:56:42.:56:44.

was still recording and releasing albums. His last two albums are

:56:45.:56:50.

fantastic pieces of work. They show that fragility of life, and the

:56:51.:56:55.

honesty as well, which country music is about. The music has gone on

:56:56.:57:00.

through his family. We had Ashley Campbell on the sofa, she is

:57:01.:57:04.

following a career in music inspired by him. He was very open about his

:57:05.:57:15.

Alzheimer's. He didn't shy away from being public, knowing that people

:57:16.:57:18.

still adored him and enjoyed his music. Completely, he was completely

:57:19.:57:23.

honest. He was recording right to the end. He spoke about his outlook

:57:24.:57:29.

on everything. That brings a real poignancy to the music when you

:57:30.:57:33.

listen to it now. Good on him for doing what he loved for as long as

:57:34.:57:37.

he could. Many of our viewers getting in touch with personal

:57:38.:57:41.

tributes. Lisa said, I saw him in Nottingham on his final tour, love

:57:42.:57:45.

his music so much. Andrew says, so sorry to hear the news, I enjoy and

:57:46.:57:51.

still enjoy his songs. As a child I was convinced he was singing about a

:57:52.:58:01.

nine stone cowboy! My wife still brings its limestone cowboy! And

:58:02.:58:05.

another viewer says, we always played his songs in the car,

:58:06.:58:11.

whenever we hear them they remind me of my father. He was a one of a

:58:12.:58:21.

kind. His voice was so unique. The responses show how much he's been

:58:22.:58:25.

loved over his career. Thank you for talking to us as we look back on the

:58:26.:58:29.

life of Brian Campbell who has died at the age of 81. Plenty more

:58:30.:58:32.

tributes on the BBC website. With it's rugged mountains

:58:33.:58:37.

and pristine lochs, it's no surprise that the Isle of Skye attracts large

:58:38.:58:39.

numbers of tourists. But the island has become

:58:40.:58:42.

so popular its services are being stretched to the limit

:58:43.:58:44.

and Police Scotland is warning visitors to stay away

:58:45.:58:46.

unless they have a reservation. James Shaw is there

:58:47.:58:49.

for us this morning. Look at this beautiful scene. You

:58:50.:59:11.

can see Portree harbour, the main town on Skye. And this is what they

:59:12.:59:15.

call the lump, for obvious reasons, where the Highland games will take

:59:16.:59:18.

place later on today, and the population of the stone will at

:59:19.:59:21.

least double, probably more than that. -- the population of this

:59:22.:59:28.

town. And look across the harbour at those Rocky Mountains in the

:59:29.:59:31.

background, to give you the sense of why so many people come here.

:59:32.:59:40.

Skye has a unique and stunning combination of rivers,

:59:41.:59:42.

mountains and sea lochs, but now it's under increasing

:59:43.:59:44.

Some of Skye's most stunning locations are victims

:59:45.:59:53.

of their own success, suffering increasing

:59:54.:59:54.

But, still, visitors are drawn to them.

:59:55.:00:00.

What do you think of what you've seen so far?

:00:01.:00:02.

I mean, just the landscape is amazing.

:00:03.:00:05.

Something you don't see anywhere else.

:00:06.:00:13.

Yeah, it has been lovely and everything is beautiful,

:00:14.:00:15.

but there are so many tourists that there isn't the infrastructure

:00:16.:00:21.

to deal with that, and unless they manage it in some way

:00:22.:00:24.

I fear that the prettiness will be damaged by all

:00:25.:00:26.

I didn't imagine it was so many people, but, yeah, we were quite

:00:27.:00:34.

You know, you have the vast landscape you can walk

:00:35.:00:38.

Not so much space on Skye's single-track roads.

:00:39.:00:43.

Incidents like this are surprisingly common.

:00:44.:00:49.

And more people are coming to Skye because they've seen it on film.

:00:50.:00:57.

The problem at the moment is the car parking,

:00:58.:00:59.

disposal of waste, and, you know, people come

:01:00.:01:04.

to where the films were made, jump out of the car or the coach,

:01:05.:01:07.

And, you know, it's nothing coming into the island economy from some

:01:08.:01:12.

Who wouldn't want to come to Skye to be so surrounded

:01:13.:01:17.

But it's clear that pressures are growing and some on the island

:01:18.:01:28.

believe that there need to be solutions sooner rather than later.

:01:29.:01:31.

Well, the biggest challenge over single-track roads...

:01:32.:01:35.

Shirley Spear runs one of Skye's most famous restaurants.

:01:36.:01:39.

She's also setting up an organisation which will pitch

:01:40.:01:41.

for government grants to improve the island's infrastructure.

:01:42.:01:44.

We need the Scottish Government to get right behind tourism,

:01:45.:01:47.

which is now recognised as being a major economic driver

:01:48.:01:49.

We need to get them onside and perhaps supporting us with extra

:01:50.:01:57.

funding for the development of tourism as an industry.

:01:58.:02:03.

Other people suggest a tourism tax, or even making all or part

:02:04.:02:06.

But the consensus is that there should be action soon.

:02:07.:02:18.

So some possible solutions there. Could there be a tourism tax to help

:02:19.:02:26.

the infrastructure? The Scottish Government is not in favour of that,

:02:27.:02:30.

but say they are open to discussion on these issues, so perhaps a

:02:31.:02:33.

special fund could be set up by the cover meant or perhaps even in the

:02:34.:02:37.

long term they could make Skye or parts of Skye, the most beautiful

:02:38.:02:41.

parts, into a national park. That is a solution that has worked in some

:02:42.:02:46.

other parts of Britain. STUDIO: James, thank you very much

:02:47.:02:50.

for that this morning. It looks so gorgeous and peaceful behind you as

:02:51.:02:53.

well. As long as there are not too many tourists! Part of the issue,

:02:54.:03:00.

isn't it? It is two minutes past nine.

:03:01.:03:01.

Tonight a special production of Les Miserables has its premiere

:03:02.:03:03.

It was the favourite musical of the murdered MP Jo Cox

:03:04.:03:07.

and is being performed in her honour by school children

:03:08.:03:09.

But with a six-figure budget and a team of experienced West End

:03:10.:03:13.

professionals behind the scenes, this is no ordinary

:03:14.:03:15.

Our entertainment correspondent Colin Paterson was at one

:03:16.:03:18.

# And the sun in the morning set to rise... #.

:03:19.:03:35.

It's the West End in West Yorkshire, all to honour the late MP Jo Cox.

:03:36.:03:40.

What you can do for me, guys, is give me that energy...

:03:41.:03:43.

The West End director Nick Evans came up with the idea of putting

:03:44.:03:46.

on a show using children from Jo Cox's constituency.

:03:47.:03:49.

I wanted to show the people of Batley and Spen, and the wider

:03:50.:03:52.

communities around there, that people right across

:03:53.:03:54.

the UK, and in particular the West End community,

:03:55.:03:56.

So I dreamed up a project to do Les Miserables

:03:57.:04:02.

in a warehouse in Batley and Spen, in the town Jo Cox grew up in,

:04:03.:04:05.

in the town she represented, and using the young people

:04:06.:04:08.

of West Yorkshire to tell that story, and provide

:04:09.:04:11.

And the idea is that although it's youth theatre,

:04:12.:04:17.

everything is to be of a West End standard.

:04:18.:04:25.

The set is amazing - obviously we've got West End

:04:26.:04:28.

directors and musical directors working on it,

:04:29.:04:29.

so you're working with these really professional, experienced people.

:04:30.:04:33.

Even the costumes were worn by the West End actors.

:04:34.:04:37.

So trying on my Cosette dress was insane, because I was like,

:04:38.:04:40.

this has been worn on a professional stage.

:04:41.:04:43.

On the night I'll be cueing every department in the show, like,

:04:44.:04:46.

And as soon as I say it, they can do it, they can't do it until I say.

:04:47.:04:52.

That's quite a lot of responsibility for a 15-year-old.

:04:53.:04:55.

But I'm with the West End professionals, so if I do

:04:56.:04:58.

get nervous or mess up, they can take over, which is good.

:04:59.:05:01.

The late MP's seat was taken over by Coronation Street

:05:02.:05:09.

actress Tracy Brabin, who says Les Mis was

:05:10.:05:11.

I spoke to Brendan, Jo's husband, and he said that they used to play

:05:12.:05:18.

the musical in the car, so the kids knew all the words,

:05:19.:05:21.

It's about passion, it's about being a comrade,

:05:22.:05:27.

it's about politics, and working together,

:05:28.:05:29.

She would come and visit our school quite frequently.

:05:30.:05:56.

I met Jo about five or six times myself, and she was a lovely lady,

:05:57.:06:00.

This is such a great inspiration to do for her,

:06:01.:06:03.

This Les Mis is on until Saturday, but it is hoped the new youth

:06:04.:06:14.

theatre will continue, and provide a lasting legacy

:06:15.:06:16.

STUDIO: It looks good! We will be talking to Danny Wallace about

:06:17.:06:38.

rudeness in a moment, something that has got many of you fired up.

:06:39.:08:12.

Well, I'm back with BBC London news at 1.30 with our lunchtime bulletin.

:08:13.:08:15.

Now, though, it's back to Naga and Dan.

:08:16.:08:17.

Welcome back to Breakfast. I'm glad you came back after a certain

:08:18.:08:34.

somebody told you to get lost! Yes, but it is about being rude to

:08:35.:08:38.

someone, remembering a time someone was rude to you. 45 seconds ago, in

:08:39.:08:40.

your case! When was the last time

:08:41.:08:41.

you were rude to someone? How about the last time

:08:42.:08:43.

someone was rude to you? Which age group do you

:08:44.:08:46.

think are the rudest? Is the world a less polite

:08:47.:08:48.

place then it once was? These are questions that comedian

:08:49.:08:51.

and author Danny Wallace has It all started after an unpleasant

:08:52.:08:53.

encounter with a hot dog seller. Yes, exactly. All I wanted was a hot

:08:54.:09:00.

dog. Without this moment this book would not have existed and I would

:09:01.:09:03.

not have spent so much time on it. I just wanted a hot dog, I was with my

:09:04.:09:07.

son, he wanted one, I have bought them before, knew how to do it, knew

:09:08.:09:12.

what to do. There was a place that sold hot dogs with a woman in it

:09:13.:09:15.

whose job it was to sell hotdogs, yet when I went into by the hotdog

:09:16.:09:20.

from the hotdog place I was met with this barrage of rudeness and I

:09:21.:09:23.

couldn't quite believe it. When someone is already out of the blue

:09:24.:09:26.

kind of messes with your brain and that is why people can't come up

:09:27.:09:30.

with something witty to say at the moment, and I had to pay upfront so

:09:31.:09:35.

I was stuck, had to wait for the hotdog, and to cut a long story

:09:36.:09:39.

short I had to wait an hour for the hotdog, which never arrive, and when

:09:40.:09:42.

it never arrived I was ejected and thrown out of the diner, waiting in

:09:43.:09:47.

the drizzle with no hotdog, wondering, what happened here? Did

:09:48.:09:54.

your child look at you disappointed? To be fair, they got his hotdog, I

:09:55.:09:58.

have to say. It was a junior little hotdog. Mine never arrived, but I

:09:59.:10:01.

felt disappointed in myself because I had engaged in a bit of rudeness

:10:02.:10:06.

with this woman in the end. Why did it happen? I was obsessed with it

:10:07.:10:11.

for a couple of days, wrote 200 word online review which then turned into

:10:12.:10:16.

an 85,000 book. We were talking about rudeness and that is how

:10:17.:10:22.

people deal with rudeness. And how we deal with it... We either tut and

:10:23.:10:27.

ignore it, like someone jumping in front of you in a queue, or are we

:10:28.:10:31.

get mad with rage and we can't contain ourselves. Yes, it goes

:10:32.:10:34.

right to the core of who we are because when it happens you feel put

:10:35.:10:38.

down and disrespected and you want some of that respect back, which is

:10:39.:10:42.

when either you tut, to teach the other person, this is how we do

:10:43.:10:46.

things, this is the system we have in place, that you should learn, we

:10:47.:10:50.

go crazy because we feel we need to claw something back. So many people

:10:51.:10:54.

have got in contact about this today. Queue jumping, called guys as

:10:55.:11:00.

opposed to Sir or Madam. Chris says, call me old-fashioned but that is

:11:01.:11:04.

what I need. Car -based fury, whatever that might be, jumping and,

:11:05.:11:09.

again queue related. A lot of it seems to come down to that, saying

:11:10.:11:12.

please and thank you. You have travelled around the world. Is it

:11:13.:11:17.

the same wherever? We all have different systems in place and the

:11:18.:11:24.

basics really are do unto others as you would have done to you. The

:11:25.:11:28.

thing irking me at the moment is I feel that the world really has

:11:29.:11:33.

gotten much ruder and that it has gotten dangerous and that with the

:11:34.:11:36.

deeper I have met and the research I have done, it could lead to some

:11:37.:11:39.

very dark places indeed, because scientists see it as a kid of

:11:40.:11:43.

neurotoxin that can spread the way a cold can spread. If you see someone

:11:44.:11:47.

being rude you are more likely to see rudeness later and be more rid

:11:48.:11:57.

yourself. You become less creative, worst dad, mum or family member, you

:11:58.:12:00.

are worse at your job, you can't concentrate... How do you stop it? A

:12:01.:12:05.

way of stopping it, because it is helping, and there are waves of it,

:12:06.:12:09.

you stop it by calling it out, shining a spotlight on it, saying,

:12:10.:12:14.

that is not the way, by tutting, are a little bit more. What I find

:12:15.:12:18.

really upsetting, this culture of people who say, I'm only being

:12:19.:12:22.

honest. People say, I'm only being honest, but... Then they see

:12:23.:12:26.

something mean. You just have to take me as I am, etc. No, you have

:12:27.:12:38.

to change, because it is awful being honest because you are confusing

:12:39.:12:40.

opinion with honesty so we can all stand round and applaud you for your

:12:41.:12:43.

boring offensive behaviour. And it is the same thing with the hotdog

:12:44.:12:45.

seller. It is hard to respond to rudeness without being rid yourself,

:12:46.:12:48.

and often at my those people who can see, no, you are being rude, without

:12:49.:12:53.

coming across as a bully themselves. Yes, I had to analyse my own

:12:54.:12:56.

behaviour and what I did to annoy this lady in the first place, so I

:12:57.:13:00.

talked to as many people as I could, to scientists, psychologists,
