:09:52. > :09:56.even longer. The numbers. One in five flights to and from the UK are
:09:57. > :10:03.now delayed by more than 30 minutes according to the BBC. You won't mind
:10:04. > :10:06.too much. But that is increasing in frequency. EasyJet was named and
:10:07. > :10:11.shamed as the worst offender. The average summer flights delayed by 24
:10:12. > :10:20.minutes. If you take one of those flights, expect that the late.
:10:21. > :10:25.Gatwick Airport is the one that has been noted as having the worst, with

:10:32. > :10:34.flights in Gatwick Airport. They carry millions of passengers each
:10:35. > :10:38.year. They are congested and have many planes that go to Europe. That
:10:39. > :10:45.is why they have the most congested aerospace and they only have one
:10:46. > :10:49.runway. But if you are travelling from a small regional airport you
:10:50. > :10:55.will have less to late. Bradford is seeing the least delays. There are

:22:39. > :22:46.what you can say to people who are concerned about the eggs they may be
:22:47. > :22:49.eating. Good morning, C. I want to reassure people about the eggs they
:22:50. > :22:55.might be eating. The risk to public health from this very small -- this
:22:56. > :23:01.very small proportion of eggs, the risk is very low. People do not need
:23:02. > :23:09.to worry about any impact on them from eating these eggs. Even though
:23:10. > :23:13.700,000 eggs, they sound like a lot. It's in the context of a seating
:23:14. > :23:17.more than 10 billion eggs per year so it helps to put that in
:23:18. > :23:27.proportion. This is a very low risk issue. When you say the risk, can
:23:28. > :23:31.you quantify? We are talking about a grown adult, someone like me would
:23:32. > :23:39.have to weed one of these eggs every day to the rest of our lives to face
:23:40. > :23:45.any serious potential health risk. The latest figures we are being
:23:46. > :23:51.told, some 700,000 eggs that were affected. Earlier, the first
:23:52. > :23:55.emerged, it was just 20 1000. Can you account for white rose so
:23:56. > :24:05.swiftly and why the initial figure was so wrong? -- why it rose. We
:24:06. > :24:10.were made aware that there were no known eggs that made it in but we
:24:11. > :24:15.all recognise this has been a fast-moving incident in Holland and
:24:16. > :24:20.Belgium. Over the weekend, our first notification that they thought
:24:21. > :24:24.21,000 eggs had got to the UK and that prompted us to launch our
:24:25. > :24:29.investigations and as a result, the industry coming forward, we've
:24:30. > :24:34.established the number is currently 700,000 eggs. That is the nature of
:24:35. > :24:39.these things. There are about 150 farms affected in the Netherlands.
:24:40. > :24:47.They are uncovering more evidence as time has gone on and we've been
:24:48. > :24:51.reacting to that. How confident are you the 700,000 figure is correct
:24:52. > :24:57.given what you said about the number escalating so quickly? New
:24:58. > :25:02.information may still come forward. We can't say that's it. There may
:25:03. > :25:17.well be more eggs. The risk issue will remain the same. A lifetime
:25:18. > :25:21.consumption is needed. We are still expecting a very small proportion of
:25:22. > :25:27.the total number of eggs in the UK. We produce something like 85% of the
:25:28. > :25:38.eggs we eat here in the UK and there is no evidence that substance has
:25:39. > :25:45.been wrongly used in the UK. With the agency, giving what you said
:25:46. > :25:50.about this being imported, would you recommend, seeing as there are a
:25:51. > :25:55.number of supermarkets, should they only be using UK eggs in all
:25:56. > :25:58.products? There is nothing to suggest that eggs from elsewhere
:25:59. > :26:04.have the same problems. We would not say that. The reason we've asked the
:26:05. > :26:08.supermarkets to withdraw from the shelves is not because they are a
:26:09. > :26:12.risk to public health, it's more an issue of trusting food. These eggs
:26:13. > :26:17.have something in them which should not be there and that is why we are
:26:18. > :26:19.asking for the eggs be withdrawn. Heather Hancock, thank you for your
:26:20. > :26:23.time. Now, it's the time of year
:26:24. > :26:27.when lots of us will be heading It's the perfect location to take
:26:28. > :26:40.lots of photos as we lounge around Well, earlier this week,
:26:41. > :26:44.the now ex-editor of Vogue published this photo
:26:45. > :26:47.on social media, sparking a frenzy of
:26:48. > :26:50.debate about selfies. And do summer selfies lead
:26:51. > :26:54.to increasing body anxiety? We asked a group of young
:26:55. > :27:10.people what they thought. Test is a filter, clean your skin.
:27:11. > :27:14.You just do little filters on Instagram. Would you put in
:27:15. > :27:20.unfiltered picture up? Yes. If I take it picture, as long as I'm
:27:21. > :27:25.comfortable, I don't care what anybody things. Is there pressure to
:27:26. > :27:29.always be edited and looking your best? Sometimes it makes you look
:27:30. > :27:33.nicer and are not really self-conscious if I'm using a
:27:34. > :27:37.filter. It makes you feel better that you can have a picture that
:27:38. > :27:42.everyone else can, not appreciate, but like as well as you do. And
:27:43. > :27:46.celebrities, when you see them, do you presume they are filtered?
:27:47. > :27:50.Sometimes you hope they are because they look that good and you don't
:27:51. > :27:55.look like that sometimes so it gives you a bit of relief to note that is
:27:56. > :27:59.not real. I like it when they do natural photos but then again, you
:28:00. > :28:05.know they have make-up, it's not a surprise. I'm going to make your
:28:06. > :28:11.legs a bit longer. A lot longer. Skinnier waists? Yes. I will put
:28:12. > :28:23.some make up on you. Wow, I look so much better in the fake me. I could
:28:24. > :28:28.get used to that. I do think she should have changed a
:28:29. > :28:33.single thing. She looks fabulous. I find this quite bizarre, quite
:28:34. > :28:39.worrying. I don't know if you adjust your settings when you take a photo.
:28:40. > :28:45.I just try to make my face bigger. Everybody is doing it all the time.
:28:46. > :28:50.What do you think? Do you prefer being enhanced by a filter? Should
:28:51. > :28:59.we stay natural? We would love to hear your thoughts and see your
:29:00. > :29:06.pictures. Send us an email. After 730, we will be joined by reality

:33:40. > :33:42.Here, the Food Standards Agency has revealed that 700,000 contaminated

:34:03. > :34:04.though military options were ready if needed.
:34:05. > :34:07.He made his remarks shortly after President Trump had stepped
:34:08. > :34:10.up his rhetoric, saying his threat to unleash "fire and fury"
:34:11. > :34:22.on North Korea might not have been tough enough.
:34:23. > :34:24.My portfolio, my mission, my responsibility, is to have
:34:25. > :34:29.military options should they be needed.
:34:30. > :34:37.However, right now, Secretary Rex Tillerson
:34:38. > :34:44.and Ambassador Haley, you can see the American effort
:34:45. > :34:46.is diplomatically led, it has diplomatic traction
:34:47. > :34:49.and is gaining diplomatic results.
:34:50. > :34:51.And I want to stay right there right now.
:34:52. > :34:54.The tragedy of war is well enough known
:34:55. > :34:56.and does not need another characterisation beyond the fact
:34:57. > :35:01.Donations made to the victims of the Grenfell Tower fire are not

:35:39. > :35:55.We will get the weather a little later on. Now for the sport. There
:35:56. > :36:02.were some shocks last night at the Athletic Championships. Jessica is
:36:03. > :36:09.at the stadium in London. Good morning. We will have a morning
:36:10. > :36:14.session today. Finally. The last few days we have not had anything. I
:36:15. > :36:19.want to show you that the engineers have done everything for us this
:36:20. > :36:25.morning. Let me tell you about one of the stars of the championships,
:36:26. > :36:29.Isaac. There is talk from politicians in Botswana there may be
:36:30. > :36:34.a national holiday in his honour. Can you imagine? Settler, there was
:36:35. > :36:34.no fairy tale ending for him last night.
:36:35. > :36:37.It's been an incredible few days for Isaac Makwala
:36:38. > :36:41.but there was to be no fairy tale ending for him in the final
:36:42. > :36:43.of the 200-metres last night, as he finished 6th.
:36:44. > :36:46.You'll remember Makwala was forced to miss the final of the 400-metres
:36:47. > :36:50.due to illness and had to run a time trial just to get
:36:51. > :36:54.Having made the final he was in contention around the bend
:36:55. > :36:58.Turkey's Ramil Gulyev won the race ahead of Wayde Van Niekerk.
:36:59. > :37:00.Great Britain's Nathaneel Mitchel Blake finished fourth.
:37:01. > :37:02.Makwala blamed his performance on having to run two races
:37:03. > :37:14.200 yesterday. It has cost me a lot. It took it out of you. It took
:37:15. > :37:19.everything out of me. Running alone in the semi-final. Running in the
:37:20. > :37:21.rain. It took all of my energy. So I can hear... But I am happy that I
:37:22. > :37:22.ran and I did my best. Dina Asher-Smith will be the sole
:37:23. > :37:26.British runner in tonight's final She was an automatic qualifier
:37:27. > :37:43.after she finished second I completely broke my third read. I
:37:44. > :37:48.had to spend six weeks not doing anything. Putting weight on it. And
:37:49. > :37:53.then gradually putting weight on it for the next six weeks. I was out of
:37:54. > :37:58.walking. Then I learned how to walk. And then I am here. It was not that
:37:59. > :38:04.bad. I am joking, I would not recommend it. It was not that fun.
:38:05. > :38:06.There was disappointment for the British team captain
:38:07. > :38:07.Eilidh Doyle in the 400-metres hurdles.
:38:08. > :38:11.She came last in the final which was won by the American Kori
:38:12. > :38:18.There will be three British women in the semi-finals of the women's
:38:19. > :38:21.Lynsey Sharp, Adelle Tracy, and Shelayna Oskan-Clarke,
:38:22. > :38:24.And there will be two British men in tonight's
:38:25. > :38:27.Meanwhile, an exhausted Laura Muir qualified for the final
:38:28. > :38:31.She was one of the fastest losers in her semi-final,
:38:32. > :38:34.with the exertions of finishing fourth in the 1,500 metres
:38:35. > :38:37.earlier this week looking like they've taken their toll on her.
:38:38. > :38:40.Eilish McColgan looked impressive as she also made it through,
:38:41. > :38:59.I came into this really positive. I felt like I recovered from the 1500.
:39:00. > :39:06.But last night the legs just went. I have not run a 5000 since January.
:39:07. > :39:09.It is just getting used to it. I know what to expect now more for the
:39:10. > :39:10.final. Katarina Johnson-Thompson has made
:39:11. > :39:13.it the final of the high jump after failing in that
:39:14. > :39:15.event in the heptathlon. She will be joined by
:39:16. > :39:33.Morgan Lake who also cleared There was talk the American
:39:34. > :39:43.Christian Taylor could rake Jonathan Edwards' 22-year-old record. --
:39:44. > :39:51.break. He did not. But he still got 17.6 metres. Let's have a quick look
:39:52. > :39:52.at what's been going on away from the athletics.
:39:53. > :39:53.Rory McIlroy said "the course played tricky,"
:39:54. > :39:56.after his opening round at the USPGA Championship.
:39:57. > :39:59.He dropped three shots in two holes to finish the day five shots
:40:00. > :40:03.And the Premier League returns tonight with Arsenal playing host
:40:04. > :40:06.Arsenal haven't won their opening game since 2014 and manager
:40:07. > :40:14.Arsene Wenger knows they need to change that.
:40:15. > :40:24.The squad looks good. We need to transform the quality of the
:40:25. > :40:30.preparation in the points. That is a pragmatic view, of course. What
:40:31. > :40:35.matters is the next game and winning it and starting in a strong way
:40:36. > :40:37.which we did not do last year. That is what we want to achieve this
:40:38. > :40:44.year. The start of the Premier League
:40:45. > :40:49.season is coming along quick. Mo Farah and Usain Bolt will be back on
:40:50. > :40:53.the track this weekend. It will be action packed! We will be looking
:40:54. > :40:57.forward to that. It always looks magnificent over there. That track.
:40:58. > :40:59.The grass looks great! The British Athletics team are back
:41:00. > :41:03.in action on day eight of the World Here's a quick look ahead
:41:04. > :41:18.to some of the moments There is a morning session today. So
:41:19. > :41:24.the ones to watch starts with Tiffany Porter. And bronze medallist
:41:25. > :41:30.in 2013. She wants to make it to the semi-final. Robbie Grabarz should
:41:31. > :41:36.breeze through this preliminary stage. He wants to replicate London
:41:37. > :41:39.2012 when he got bronze only one British woman made it through to the
:41:40. > :41:47.final. Lorraine Ugen. She hopes to back up her European indoor medal in
:41:48. > :42:00.March with a podium place. Next up, Britain's Lynsey Sharp. She competed
:42:01. > :42:03.in 2016 in Rio when she came sixth. Nick Miller qualified automatically
:42:04. > :42:11.for the final. The gold-medallist made it with his first throw. Dina
:42:12. > :42:16.Asher-Smith made it into the 200 metre final. She broke her foot in
:42:17. > :42:23.February and the prognosis was grim. But her comeback has been
:42:24. > :42:28.incredible. Can she get a medal? She goes at 9:50. If you want to keep up
:42:29. > :42:35.with the action, tune in to BBC Two at 9:30am this morning. And then hop
:42:36. > :42:39.over to BBC One until 10pm. And finally, BBC Two four the last hour
:42:40. > :42:50.of coverage. -- for. Hundreds of flights will be
:42:51. > :43:04.evacuated after structural problems were found in four tower blocks were
:43:05. > :43:12.. They had their gas cut off with immediate effect.
:43:13. > :43:15.Yesterday, the gas supply to 242 flats in Ledbury Towers,
:43:16. > :43:17.south London was cut off with immediate effect.
:43:18. > :43:19.A letter was sent to residents saying officials would distribute
:43:20. > :43:22.electric hotplates and that residents could take showers
:43:23. > :43:25.Councillor Stephanie Cryan is Deputy Leader and Cabinet member
:43:26. > :43:28.for Housing at Southwark Council, she joins us from our
:43:29. > :43:34.Thank you very much for talking to us this morning. Good morning. Good
:43:35. > :43:38.morning. Can you tell us, we have explained the number of flats in the
:43:39. > :43:42.process, how long has it taken to get to this point? What was found in
:43:43. > :43:45.terms of what was structurally wrong with these flats? After the
:43:46. > :43:49.aftermath of Grenfell Tower, we had a resident come to us worried about
:43:50. > :43:52.cracks in the properties. We did a full structural report on the state
:43:53. > :43:56.of the properties. And yesterday we heard that actually there was a
:43:57. > :44:00.potential issue with the gas supply and we made the decision to cut it
:44:01. > :44:04.off immediately. Just to be clear, we spoke a lot about cladding and
:44:05. > :44:11.fire risks. This is not an issue with cladding. This is an issue with
:44:12. > :44:21.gas. What are the risks posed by the gas? The structure of the tower
:44:22. > :44:25.block are similar to Rogue Point. If there was a gas explosion that could
:44:26. > :44:33.be in locations. That is why we took this decision when we found out to
:44:34. > :44:36.cut it off. As a member of Suffolk Council, you will be familiar with
:44:37. > :44:40.the criticism in terms of organisation of residence. What can
:44:41. > :44:45.you do to make the lives of those who live there easier and as little
:44:46. > :44:49.inconvenienced as possible? There will be some inconvenience but we
:44:50. > :44:53.want to minimise it as much as possible. We want people to stay in
:44:54. > :44:59.their flats. We cut the gas supply off but we are giving hotplates to
:45:00. > :45:03.those who need them. There was some protesting when we found out there
:45:04. > :45:06.was an issue with the cracks in the building. Anyone who wants to move
:45:07. > :45:10.out, we will get them accommodation. They can bid on the top band of
:45:11. > :45:15.housing if they want to move. We will find accommodation for those
:45:16. > :45:19.who want to. We also understand some will want to stay in their homes.
:45:20. > :45:24.Therefore, we want to make sure we offer hotplates for cooking. The
:45:25. > :45:30.situation will last until we can make the electrical switch over.
:45:31. > :45:35.They can have hot water and cooking facilities. All of the leisure
:45:36. > :45:42.centres are available for anyone who needs to show as well. Can you
:45:43. > :45:46.guarantee that they will be safe if they stay? -- shower. Because the
:45:47. > :45:52.gas has been switched off, the risk of gas has been taken away from
:45:53. > :45:56.them. We have a fire safety issue, but there are wardens on every
:45:57. > :46:00.floor. We have talked to the London Fire Brigade to make sure people can
:46:01. > :46:08.stay safe in their homes. Tell me, do you think that the examinations
:46:09. > :46:13.of these powers would have happened without the Grenfell Tower issue? --
:46:14. > :46:26.towerds. We will we were looking at the
:46:27. > :46:30.cracks. The residents have flagged that up. People need to look around
:46:31. > :46:35.and take things more seriously. Grenfell Tower is the catalyst.
:46:36. > :46:40.However, if the cracks -- cracks have been reported, we would have
:46:41. > :46:44.looked into them. I could not say one way or the other but I think
:46:45. > :46:49.Grenfell Tower has put things into the spotlight. I tell you what has
:46:50. > :46:54.come to mind is that if residents are not flagging up these things
:46:55. > :46:57.they have flagged the past and have not been followed up, it feels like
:46:58. > :47:02.it is up to them to push councils like yours to check on safety and
:47:03. > :47:10.without that, these checks would not take place. Is that fair? We took
:47:11. > :47:18.the decision after Grenfell Tower, we have 174 sour -- tower blocks in
:47:19. > :47:24.Southwark and we have made the highest level of fire risk
:47:25. > :47:28.assessment. For residents in Southwark, I want to reassure them,
:47:29. > :47:41.we are working to make sure residents are safe as possible.
:47:42. > :47:45.Thank you very much for your time. Sarah is bringing us the weather.
:47:46. > :47:51.She has the Bristol International balloon Festival. Has something
:47:52. > :47:56.blown up behind you? Good morning. We have a window of
:47:57. > :48:00.fine weather in Bristol for the 39th International balloon Fiesta and
:48:01. > :48:11.it's quite some spectacle this morning. Lots of balloons have
:48:12. > :48:19.already taken off. Slowly drifting off into the distance. This is
:48:20. > :48:25.Europe's largest annual gathering. The balloon fiesta runs over four
:48:26. > :48:31.days. There will be about half a million visitors. Watching 130
:48:32. > :48:41.balloons taking part in this incredible event. It is quite a
:48:42. > :48:44.tranquil start to the day. Elsewhere across the country, it will be
:48:45. > :48:53.changing a bit today. Outbreaks of rain at times. This morning, across
:48:54. > :49:01.Bristol, Sunshine, fairly light. Quite fresh. A bit more cloud in the
:49:02. > :49:08.south-east of England. As we had our way northwards, Sunshine across the
:49:09. > :49:13.morning. A bit of rain for the likes of Cumbria, Northumberland. Quite
:49:14. > :49:19.windy with the outbreaks of rain. A bitter brightness across the east of
:49:20. > :49:23.Scotland. Cloudy, windy, with rain over the higher ground. For Northern
:49:24. > :49:29.Ireland, some clouds and outbreaks of mainly light and patchy rain. The
:49:30. > :49:37.rain pushing into western parts of Wales. Relatively light wind. Some
:49:38. > :49:45.rain into the far south-west of England. As we head through the
:49:46. > :49:51.course of the day, that rain, strong wind, will move its way slowly
:49:52. > :49:57.further south-east. Showers to the south-east of England. Yet,
:49:58. > :50:04.temperatures will reach around 22 degrees. Elsewhere, around 17- 19
:50:05. > :50:10.Celsius. Into the evening hours, that rain through south-east
:50:11. > :50:15.England. Clear spells and showers across much of the country and
:50:16. > :50:20.overnight, those showers ease away. The wind will fall as well. By the
:50:21. > :50:24.time we get to Saturday morning, temperatures around 13, 15 degrees.
:50:25. > :50:32.Saturday shaping up to be mainly fine day. Some sunshine on offer.
:50:33. > :50:38.Showers lingering. Many of us will avoid any of those showers. Lighter
:50:39. > :50:41.winds then we will see today. We will see those temperatures about
:50:42. > :50:45.16, 20 two degrees. But high-pressure nudging in through the
:50:46. > :50:52.course of the weekend, another largely dry day on Sunday. The
:50:53. > :50:59.charts of a few showers here and there. The most of us, and other dry
:51:00. > :51:03.day with lighter winds and temperatures around 16, 20 two
:51:04. > :51:06.degrees. And improving picture through the weekend.

:51:12. > :51:20.Ben is go to talk to us about what happens if you are going to change
:51:21. > :51:23.your house. Many people have been through this know it is tedious.
:51:24. > :51:29.We've talked about the housing shortage.
:51:30. > :51:32.The government says 250,000 new homes need to be built
:51:33. > :51:34.in England every year to meet demand.
:51:35. > :51:36.But last year, the figure was nowhere near that.
:51:37. > :51:46.Just 150,000 new homes were actually built.
:51:47. > :51:49.But there were nearly half a million planning applications
:51:50. > :51:52.in England last year - which suggests there is demand
:51:53. > :51:55.to build and extend homes, but the process can be
:51:56. > :52:08.So today - the free-market think tank
:52:09. > :52:10.the Adam Smith Institute has a radical solution.
:52:11. > :52:13.He says you and your neighbours should decide on planning
:52:14. > :52:18.John Myers is one of the lead campaigners and wrote this report.
:52:19. > :52:27.Nice to see you. I said that you and your neighbours will be able to
:52:28. > :52:31.decide on planning permission. It's not quite as simple as that but
:52:32. > :52:36.nonetheless, it would be quite a departure from the current system.
:52:37. > :52:41.We set out to create an effective reform that is really just a tweak
:52:42. > :52:45.to the existing system. It makes life easier for councils and
:52:46. > :52:50.planners. That is what they care about. Where a whole street is in
:52:51. > :52:59.favour of a proposal, why shouldn't they be able to let that go through?
:53:00. > :53:04.If I want to extend the council says no, what can I do? The proposal is
:53:05. > :53:10.not aimed at individual applications. If the street would
:53:11. > :53:15.like to add a story or an extension, why not give them a vote? What
:53:16. > :53:20.concerns the neighbours is, what is going to look like at the end? With
:53:21. > :53:26.two thirds of the would like to do that, and they should have the
:53:27. > :53:29.ability to do it. Let us say the entire street would get a blanket
:53:30. > :53:34.permission to build that extra story. Or more ambitious, if they
:53:35. > :53:43.want to. They don't have to do. They can just sit on it. In peak demand,
:53:44. > :53:48.often a homeowner could be better off so there is a powerful
:53:49. > :53:52.incentive. Adding value to the house, so it would make homeowners
:53:53. > :53:59.better off. How is it solve the housing crisis? It doesn't mean
:54:00. > :54:04.there are more homes to solve it? In many cities, a lot of homes have
:54:05. > :54:11.been created by splitting houses into flats. That is one easy way. If
:54:12. > :54:15.the street wants to give them permission to knock down basic
:54:16. > :54:22.terraces. They should be allowed to do that. And people agreeing.
:54:23. > :54:27.Getting neighbours to agree on anything is difficult. We share it
:54:28. > :54:34.should require a two thirds majority. Really good to talk to
:54:35. > :54:36.you. After seven o'clock, I will talk more about the airport delays.
:54:37. > :54:37.More on that later. It's just over a month
:54:38. > :54:40.since six-year-old Bradley Lowery died after battling
:54:41. > :54:42.a rare form of cancer. The Sunderland fan won
:54:43. > :54:44.a legion of supporters across the country, including
:54:45. > :54:50.footballer Jermain Defoe. Now, in his first interview
:54:51. > :54:56.since Bradley's death, Jermain told the BBC how he's been
:54:57. > :55:04.inspired by his best mate. They were best friends and it was a
:55:05. > :55:08.friendship which captured the hearts of everyone. Have a nice picture in
:55:09. > :55:18.the house of me and Bradley at the England game. It's a special story.
:55:19. > :55:29.My best friend, he was genuine. He was a kid who knew... He just loved
:55:30. > :55:32.his football. He loved me, I loved him and after seeing his eyes, it
:55:33. > :55:39.was genuine because he was a child. There was nothing I could give him
:55:40. > :55:45.apart from just being a friend. It was an instant connection. Even
:55:46. > :55:48.towards the end, when he was really struggling and you couldn't really
:55:49. > :55:52.move, I would walk into the move anti- fashion the room and he would
:55:53. > :55:58.just jump up and his mum said, he hasn't moved all day certainly, it
:55:59. > :56:06.was a special feeling. The emotion is still raw but the impact the
:56:07. > :56:10.little boy has had on Dafoe has been striking. The Bournemouth striker
:56:11. > :56:14.says it is a gift and he will be forever grateful. I always wake up
:56:15. > :56:19.thinking, you know, if you don't feel well, you feel tired, snap out
:56:20. > :56:26.of it. Because I can see little kids suffer like that and still fight, to
:56:27. > :56:38.me, there is no bigger motivation. I could go through anything. You
:56:39. > :56:42.walked out within 70 times. It was the best. He was looking down the
:56:43. > :56:52.tunnel. I came down the tunnel, gave him a cuddle. For him to do that,
:56:53. > :57:00.that was special. And we walked out, standing now, singing the national
:57:01. > :57:05.anthem. Being involved in the squad and actually playing, and scoring...
:57:06. > :57:15.For me, it's one of the best moments of my career. You can see the whole
:57:16. > :00:43.of that interval -- This is Breakfast,
:00:44. > :00:45.with Charlie Stayt and Naga Arrests as the contaminated egg
:00:46. > :00:48.scandal spreads to more It's now known that 700,000 eggs
:00:49. > :00:52.have been sent to the UK from farms Some processed foods have been
:00:53. > :00:56.pulled from supermarket shelves, but officials insist it's unlikely
:00:57. > :01:14.the public is at risk. Also this morning, the US defence
:01:15. > :01:21.secretary says war with North Korea James Mattis insists diplomacy
:01:22. > :01:25.is delivering results. A friendship forged
:01:26. > :01:27.through football. One month on from the death
:01:28. > :01:31.of Bradley Lowery, Jermain Defoe speaks for the first time
:01:32. > :01:45.about his best friend. He loved his football. He loved me.
:01:46. > :01:51.I loved him. For me, it was how I saw him, it was a special feeling.
:01:52. > :01:56.Good morning. I am live at the London Stadium, on day eight of the
:01:57. > :01:59.World Athletics Championship. Here on BBC Breakfast we are getting
:02:00. > :02:04.excited about one British athlete in particular. Six months ago she wrote
:02:05. > :02:09.her foot at the beaming smile said it all. Dina Asher-Smith is back and
:02:10. > :02:14.tonight she will line up against the world's vest in the 200 metres
:02:15. > :02:18.final. Good morning. Congestion, air traffic control strikes in bad
:02:19. > :02:22.weather or cause flight delays. But which airports and airlines are the
:02:23. > :02:24.worst offenders? I will have the details.
:02:25. > :02:33.Good morning. I am airborne at the balloon fiesta in Bristol. I will
:02:34. > :02:34.bring you the weather details in about 15 minutes.
:02:35. > :02:38.Police investigating the European egg contamination scandal have
:02:39. > :02:40.arrested two company directors following raids in the Netherlands.
:02:41. > :02:43.Here, the Food Standards Agency has revealed that 700,000 contaminated
:02:44. > :02:47.eggs have been imported from Dutch farms, but it insists it is "highly
:02:48. > :02:49.unlikely" they pose any risk to human health.
:02:50. > :02:52.Sandwiches and salads are among the foods that have now been removed
:02:53. > :03:05.from UK supermarket shelves, as Natasha Emerson reports.
:03:06. > :03:07.Millions of eggs destroyed, supermarkets scrambling
:03:08. > :03:15.Two men have been held by Dutch police over batches of poisonous
:03:16. > :03:24.Fipronil, a pesticide commonly used to kill lice and fleas on pets,
:03:25. > :03:31.has made its way into the food chain.
:03:32. > :03:36.Earlier this week, the Food Standards Agency said
:03:37. > :03:39.21,000 contaminated eggs had been imported to the UK.
:03:40. > :03:42.Now, it thinks it could be as many as 700,000.
:03:43. > :03:46.But that's still only a fraction of the 34 million we eat each day.
:03:47. > :03:49.And the agency said you would have to eat 10,000 contaminated eggs
:03:50. > :03:52.There's no reason people should avoid eating eggs.
:03:53. > :03:56.Our assessment is it is unlikely there is any public health risk.
:03:57. > :03:58.We think people deserve food they can trust.
:03:59. > :04:01.That means not having food that has a substance that should
:04:02. > :04:05.So far, some salads and sandwiches sold by these four supermarkets have
:04:06. > :04:07.been withdrawn from sale, but whole eggs are safe.
:04:08. > :04:10.Despite those reassurances, the scandal continues to spread
:04:11. > :04:12.through Europe, Millions of eggs will be destroyed,
:04:13. > :04:16.as will hundreds of thousands of hens.
:04:17. > :04:23.Four years ago, horsemeat was found in burgers and ready meals.
:04:24. > :04:26.Once again, questions are being raised about what goes
:04:27. > :04:28.in processed foods and where it comes from.
:04:29. > :04:31.Officials hope that the contaminated eggs will be out of the food chain
:04:32. > :04:34.soon, but the investigation into Europe's latest food scandal
:04:35. > :04:48.We will be speaking to a global food security expert about what can be
:04:49. > :04:49.done to protect the UK food chain from this kind of contamination in
:04:50. > :04:52.just under ten minutes. The US Defence Secretary James
:04:53. > :04:56.Mattis says America is still trying to use diplomacy to resolve
:04:57. > :04:59.the growing tension with North Korea He said diplomatic efforts
:05:00. > :05:02.were yielding results, though military options
:05:03. > :05:05.were ready if needed. He made his remarks shortly
:05:06. > :05:07.after President Trump had stepped up his rhetoric, saying his threat
:05:08. > :05:11.to unleash "fire and fury" on North Korea might not
:05:12. > :05:16.have been tough enough. My portfolio, my mission,
:05:17. > :05:19.my responsibility, is to have military options
:05:20. > :05:22.should they be needed. is diplomatically led,
:05:23. > :05:25.it has diplomatic traction And I want to stay
:05:26. > :05:29.right there right now. The tragedy of war is well enough
:05:30. > :05:32.known and does not need another characterisation beyond the fact
:05:33. > :05:46.that it would be catastrophic. Let's see what he does with Guam. He
:05:47. > :05:50.does something in Guam, it will be an event the likes of which nobody
:05:51. > :05:54.has seen before, what will happen in North Korea.
:05:55. > :05:58.Robin Brant is in Seoul for us this morning.
:05:59. > :06:05.You heard the President's reaction, pretty strong words. How are all
:06:06. > :06:11.there reacting to this escalating tension? -- how are people there
:06:12. > :06:16.reacting. What a contrast in tone from those two men. People in South
:06:17. > :06:19.Korea have lived with the prospect of conflict with their northern
:06:20. > :06:24.neighbour for decades. There has been no change in the alert here.
:06:25. > :06:29.We're not seeing more of military presence. They were prepared for
:06:30. > :06:34.swift action yesterday. In terms of people on the streets they would
:06:35. > :06:38.need more assurance to hear other comments coming from President Trump
:06:39. > :06:41.when he reminded North Korea that they cannot go around threatening
:06:42. > :06:46.the US, Japan and South Korea, because that military alliance
:06:47. > :06:48.between South Korea and the US is crucial diplomatically, but also in
:06:49. > :06:53.terms of protecting this country. South Koreans have elected a new
:06:54. > :06:58.president relatively recently, President Moon, who is more
:06:59. > :07:01.conciliatory in his tone. He wants Pyongyang back at the negotiating
:07:02. > :07:05.table to negotiate a lasting peace on the peninsula. I think that tally
:07:06. > :07:09.is much more with the tone of what James Mattis was seen, in terms of
:07:10. > :07:13.this primarily eating a diplomatic effort. -- tallies much more.
:07:14. > :07:17.Hundreds of people are going to be moved out of their high rise flats
:07:18. > :07:20.after an investigation has revealed they are not safe there.
:07:21. > :07:22.242 flats in South East London are affected.
:07:23. > :07:24.The issue with the gas supply was discovered
:07:25. > :07:26.during an investigation into fire safety prompted
:07:27. > :07:34.Dan Johnson is there with the latest.
:07:35. > :07:45.Dan, what is the nature of the problem? Quite complicated. Let's
:07:46. > :07:47.make it clear, this is not about cladding, although this
:07:48. > :07:51.investigation started after the Grenfell Tower. It is not even
:07:52. > :07:55.primarily about fire safety. This is about the structure of the towers
:07:56. > :07:58.and whether or not they are strong enough to endure something like a
:07:59. > :08:01.gas explosion. There was supposed to be worked on these towers in the
:08:02. > :08:07.1960s after a similar block collapsed when there was a gas
:08:08. > :08:10.explosion. But now the council has uncovered that it looks like that
:08:11. > :08:13.work was never done, so it cannot guarantee that those towers would
:08:14. > :08:17.the safe if there was a gas explosion. That is why they have
:08:18. > :08:21.called for the gas supply to be switched off immediately. Gas
:08:22. > :08:24.engineers have just arrived. It is not a problem with the gas supply
:08:25. > :08:28.itself, it is the structure of the building that they need to make
:08:29. > :08:32.safe. To do that work they will have to move residents out. They will
:08:33. > :08:36.have to reinforce the building and convert the heating and hot water to
:08:37. > :08:40.electric. So residents will have to be relocated at least temporarily.
:08:41. > :08:43.Lots of work to do here. This is potentially a big issue which could
:08:44. > :08:47.affect many other tower blocks constructed at the same time. It is
:08:48. > :08:49.another big issue that is developing, another worry for people
:08:50. > :08:53.living in high-rise blocks. The airports and airlines
:08:54. > :09:02.with the worst summer flight delays If they are on this list they might
:09:03. > :09:06.not want to listen to you now? No, we are going to name and shame them.
:09:07. > :09:12.This is a BBC investigation looking at the data, airports and airlines
:09:13. > :09:18.over the past two summers. It is interesting. It is caused by all
:09:19. > :09:23.sorts of things. Their congestion, obviously. Too many planes in the
:09:24. > :09:27.skies. What sort out traffic control strikes in France, Italy and Spain
:09:28. > :09:32.over the past few years. -- lots of air traffic control strikes. And bad
:09:33. > :09:37.weather. The investigation found one in five flights to and from the UK
:09:38. > :09:41.had a delay of more than 30 minutes. If it is just 30 minutes you don't
:09:42. > :09:45.mind too much. This evidence suggests it is becoming increasingly
:09:46. > :09:50.common. The worst airline, the worst offender, easyJet. An average flight
:09:51. > :09:55.delay in the summer of 24 minutes. EasyJet, for its part, it says that
:09:56. > :09:57.is because they carry more passengers. They are a bigger
:09:58. > :10:01.airline, they have 78 million passengers every year. The airport
:10:02. > :10:06.that is the worst offender is Gatwick. The average weight there is
:10:07. > :10:11.27 minutes after your scheduled departure time. -- wait. Gatwick
:10:12. > :10:15.says they only have one runway, they are very congested and they fly lots
:10:16. > :10:19.to Europe, which is most susceptible to congestion and air traffic
:10:20. > :10:23.strikes. There is good news. If you travel from a local, smaller,
:10:24. > :10:27.regional airport, they tend to do better. Leeds Bradford and Belfast
:10:28. > :10:35.airport hosted well. They had the shortest delays. If you are delayed,
:10:36. > :10:40.does it necessarily mean you arrive late? No, this is interesting. This
:10:41. > :10:44.is what the trains have been caught up on. They give themselves more
:10:45. > :10:47.time in the arrival time. They say that they will arrive a bit later
:10:48. > :10:52.than they do, which means they always arrive on time. So even if
:10:53. > :10:55.you take off late, you might make up that time in the air, all the
:10:56. > :10:59.scheduled arrival time is late anyway, so it looks like you arrive
:11:00. > :11:02.on time, they don't have to pay compensation and nobody is unhappy.
:11:03. > :11:07.But the train companies were caught up with that. One word on the
:11:08. > :11:08.airports, if you want to check where you regularly travel to and from you
:11:09. > :11:18.can check it out on our website. Thank you. Let's look at sport. And
:11:19. > :11:24.there were some shocks at the World Athletics Championship in London
:11:25. > :11:29.last night in the men's 200 metres. The favourites missed out but they
:11:30. > :11:33.were safe there is a lending for Botswana's Isaac McQualter, who ran
:11:34. > :11:36.a solo time trail just to get there. -- there was a fairytale ending for
:11:37. > :11:46.Botswana's Isaac McQualter. He emerged to a great crowd. After
:11:47. > :11:51.beating illness, could he beat his rivals? It did not have a happy
:11:52. > :11:56.ending. South Africa's Wade Vanni Kirk looked on course for his second
:11:57. > :12:00.title, but it was an heralded -- and unheralded name which grabbed the
:12:01. > :12:04.headlines. Ramil Guliyev taking gold, from Turkey, ahead of Wade
:12:05. > :12:12.Vanni Kirk and Isaac McQualter back in sixth. For the Botswanan it was
:12:13. > :12:17.not to be. It was not to be. I had a crazy day yesterday. 200 metres
:12:18. > :12:23.yesterday. Earlier, there were hopes of reduced success for Aily Doyle in
:12:24. > :12:28.the hurdles, but the team captain finished last in her finals, with
:12:29. > :12:32.America's Corey Carter taking gold. Today, the UK's hopes will be led by
:12:33. > :12:36.Dina Asher-Smith in the women's 200 metres and Lorraine Ugen in the long
:12:37. > :12:38.jump. After six days without a British medal, the fans will be
:12:39. > :12:48.crossing their fingers. There it is, the London Stadium,
:12:49. > :12:55.where all the action will take place through the programme. After eight
:12:56. > :13:00.o'clock we will be speaking to Colin Jackson, and he will tell us who he
:13:01. > :13:02.thinks he has his eye on for success later today.
:13:03. > :13:06.Everybody is fascinated by things that get washed up on the beach.
:13:07. > :13:11.Little things, big things. Look at this. This is the coast of Norfolk.
:13:12. > :13:16.You get a sense looking from a distance that there is some really
:13:17. > :13:19.big stuff that has washed up here. The Maritime and coastguard agency
:13:20. > :13:23.confirms two large plastic pipes, and when we say large, you can see
:13:24. > :13:27.those people near them. They are eight feet in diameter. I was
:13:28. > :13:31.concerned about this yellow and red thing on the end of the pipes. If
:13:32. > :13:35.they are eight feet in diameter you would think you would be able to run
:13:36. > :13:41.through them. They are, apparently, are the plug-ins. You could get an
:13:42. > :13:45.anchor on to that as well. You could tell it and link it to other pipes.
:13:46. > :13:49.I was concerned, because if you wait in a minute, you can see the other
:13:50. > :13:53.end of the pipe, which is hollow. Anyway, what we are asking you today
:13:54. > :13:56.is, have you seen things washed up on the beach that are unusual?
:13:57. > :14:02.Apparently there are ten more of these which are missing. They were
:14:03. > :14:06.being heard, and came loose, and they were just drifting around, and
:14:07. > :14:14.lo and behold they have ended up in Norfolk. -- they were being towed.
:14:15. > :14:16.If you have seen anything like that wash up on the beach, send us a
:14:17. > :14:21.picture. Now it Four years ago British shoppers
:14:22. > :14:24.were horrified to find there could be traces
:14:25. > :14:26.of horse meat in the food Now another food scandal has forced
:14:27. > :14:30.retailers to pull products This time it's eggs contaminated
:14:31. > :14:34.with the pesticide fipronil. Professor Chris Elliott is Director
:14:35. > :14:37.of the Institute for Global Food He led an investigation into the UK
:14:38. > :14:52.food industry after the horsemeat Thank you very much for joining us
:14:53. > :14:56.this morning. Good morning. What do you make of these eggs getting into
:14:57. > :15:03.the food chain, into the supermarkets - at one point they
:15:04. > :15:07.thought it was 21,000, now up to 700,000 contaminated eggs in our
:15:08. > :15:15.foodchain - how has this happened? The information points towards a
:15:16. > :15:18.legal practice that has happened -- illegal practice that has happened
:15:19. > :15:24.in Holland and further across Europe. The number of eggs that have
:15:25. > :15:30.come into the UK is not known for sure. Started with a small number,

:15:37. > :15:41.million by the end of next week. OK, several million contaminated eggs.
:15:42. > :15:48.Will they be in our system still? What about the extra eggs? What is
:15:49. > :15:53.emerging is this illegal practice and the use of this insecticide
:15:54. > :15:57.could have been going on for a considerable period of time. Most of
:15:58. > :16:04.those egg products have now been consumed. The products we know our
:16:05. > :16:08.contaminated in the UK, the retailer is selling the product are
:16:09. > :16:14.undertaking voluntary recall is as a precautionary measure at the moment.
:16:15. > :16:23.The implication is for many supermarkets that we buy and eat
:16:24. > :16:28.British eggs. How clear, how where are we as consumers as that non-
:16:29. > :16:33.British eggs are in sandwich fillings, which is what these eggs
:16:34. > :16:36.have been used for? On a broader context we don't know what we are
:16:37. > :16:46.eating and we don't know where it comes from. Specifically on eggs we
:16:47. > :16:51.are 85% self-sufficient. We import over 1 billion eggs per year, which
:16:52. > :16:55.end up in heavily processed foods like mayonnaise and Sam Burgess. You
:16:56. > :17:01.don't really know where the material comes from. Why do you think that
:17:02. > :17:06.is, whose fault is it, is that the supermarkets, the Food Standards
:17:07. > :17:11.Agency? I am not sure we blame anybody about this. It would be
:17:12. > :17:16.virtually impossible to name the country of origin of all of the
:17:17. > :17:20.ingredients in processed foods. You could have 25- 30 ingredients and it
:17:21. > :17:25.would be impossible to put those on labels. It is a clear message here
:17:26. > :17:29.that those people who have been implicated in this in the UK, that
:17:30. > :17:33.they are not involved in scandal in any way. The fact that they have
:17:34. > :17:38.imported materials from another part of Europe means that they have
:17:39. > :17:42.become vulnerable now. There is a clear message, purchase local when
:17:43. > :17:47.you can. We have a fantastic industry in the UK. We should
:17:48. > :17:52.support it much more. We are hearing that the European Commission has
:17:53. > :17:57.called an emergency meeting of ministers from the countries
:17:58. > :18:02.affected by this scandal. What are the key issues that they will
:18:03. > :18:07.discuss next? Action needs to be taken. Consumers need to be made
:18:08. > :18:10.safe. And this cannot happen again. Even more significant than the work
:18:11. > :18:15.of the European Commission is Europol and the police force. They
:18:16. > :18:21.are conducting a European wide investigation to see how far this
:18:22. > :18:24.illegal use has spread. There is the potential that other member states
:18:25. > :18:30.may become embroiled in this scandal over the next few days. What
:18:31. > :18:34.everyone is trying to do is find out the level of the amount of abuse
:18:35. > :18:39.that has gone on, where have the products, and, and can they be
:18:40. > :18:44.withdrawn from supermarket shelves? Not only across Europe, right across
:18:45. > :18:52.the world. Could this affect chicken flesh itself? The likelihood of that
:18:53. > :18:57.is not known. I am aware there is a government laboratory in the
:18:58. > :19:01.Netherlands testing the meat from the affected flocks. We should have
:19:02. > :19:06.the results of their testing at the end of today or tomorrow. Good to
:19:07. > :19:07.talk to you this morning. Thank you very much.
:19:08. > :19:12.You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.
:19:13. > :19:20.We are going to have a look at the weather. Is it rather forlorn,
:19:21. > :19:27.watching a balloon lying on its side? It will be pumped up soon.
:19:28. > :19:32.Pumped up? Well, air is going to be pumped into it, like a bicycle tyre.
:19:33. > :19:39.I am not sure that is the technical term. Good morning. Yes, the
:19:40. > :19:45.balloons will be inflated this morning. I want to show you this
:19:46. > :19:50.special balloon. This red and yellow striped balloon is known as the
:19:51. > :19:56.Bristol Bell, and it was the first modern hot air balloon anywhere in
:19:57. > :20:01.Europe, designed and built by Don Cameron, the founder here. The
:20:02. > :20:07.Bristol Bell is one of 130 balloons taking part in the festival over the
:20:08. > :20:12.course of four days, it is a free event and we will see around 500,000
:20:13. > :20:17.people taking part, coming to spectate. It is really quite a
:20:18. > :20:22.spectacle, watching these balloons taking off and completely filling
:20:23. > :20:26.the sky. So, this morning it is fine and tranquil to start the day with
:20:27. > :20:30.some blue skies, relatively light wind, so ideal conditions for
:20:31. > :20:34.balloons. Elsewhere across the country, rain at times. A weather
:20:35. > :20:39.front is heading west to east across the country. This morning in Bristol
:20:40. > :20:44.and across central and southern England it is a fine morning and dry
:20:45. > :20:48.with sunshine. More cloud and misty weather in the south-east. As we
:20:49. > :20:52.head through the north, clear skies and sunshine through the Midlands
:20:53. > :20:56.and northern England. There is rain across Cumbria, Northumberland, into
:20:57. > :21:01.southern Scotland. For eastern Scotland around Murray first we will
:21:02. > :21:05.see brightness this morning. Western Scotland will stay cloudy with
:21:06. > :21:09.outbreaks of rain -- Firth. And also quite windy with the arrival of the
:21:10. > :21:14.rain. Northern Ireland is cloudy and breezy and some of the rain heading
:21:15. > :21:19.into the west of Wales. Central and east Wales remains fine and dry. It
:21:20. > :21:22.will be dry in the south-west. The rain across the Isles of Scilly into
:21:23. > :21:26.western parts of Cornwall. Through the course of the day the rain in
:21:27. > :21:31.northern and western parts of the UK, accompanied by the strong wind,
:21:32. > :21:36.moves further east. The south-east of England and East Anglia should be
:21:37. > :21:42.dry for a good part of the day. In the sunshine temperatures set to
:21:43. > :21:45.reach 22 degrees. Elsewhere, typically 17- 19 degrees. This
:21:46. > :21:48.evening and overnight, the rain will move across the south-east of
:21:49. > :21:52.England. It is followed by clear spells and showers across the
:21:53. > :21:56.country. Through the course of tonight most of the showers will
:21:57. > :22:00.ease and the wind wilful lighter. Heading through the second half of
:22:01. > :22:06.the night into the early hours of Saturday temperatures down to 13- 15
:22:07. > :22:10.to start the weekend. It is not looking too bad with high pressure
:22:11. > :22:16.in charge and some showers across Wales, northern England and
:22:17. > :22:19.Scotland. Elsewhere, most of us will avoid the showers. There will be
:22:20. > :22:22.spells of sunshine. The wind will ease through the day with
:22:23. > :22:26.temperatures around 16- 22 degrees and the high pressure will hold on
:22:27. > :22:30.through Saturday evening and overnight into Sunday. On onto the
:22:31. > :22:35.second half of the weekend, Sunday will be another largely dry day.
:22:36. > :22:40.Some spells of sunshine. It should be a little bit less breezy than
:22:41. > :22:44.Saturday. The chance of one or two rogue showers around but most of us
:22:45. > :22:49.will stay dry with temperatures around 16- 22 degrees. Rain today
:22:50. > :22:56.but the weather isn't looking decent through the weekend. Very good.
:22:57. > :22:59.Thank you. It looks magnificent. Lovely. Thank you.
:23:00. > :23:02.The number of primary school children in England being excluded
:23:03. > :23:07.and sent to specialist schools known as Pupil Referral Units
:23:08. > :23:11.Research by BBC Breakfast has found more than 1,300 young children
:23:12. > :23:15.are now being taught in this way, a rise of 66% in five years.
:23:16. > :23:17.Although overall pupil numbers have gone up,
:23:18. > :23:18.that doesn't account for the increase.
:23:19. > :23:26.Breakfast's John McGuire visited a specialist centre in Norfolk.
:23:27. > :23:36.Which surface will the car travel over. Engaging lessons, artwork on
:23:37. > :23:42.the wall and positive measures everywhere - typical of a school.
:23:43. > :23:46.But Brooklyn's is different, a Pupil Referral Unit, or a shortstay
:23:47. > :23:51.school, children in Norfolk come here if they have been excluded or
:23:52. > :23:55.are deemed to challenging to be taught by the original primary. We
:23:56. > :23:58.spoke to some of out why they left their old school and we are
:23:59. > :24:03.protecting their identity. It didn't make me comfortable. It was
:24:04. > :24:07.horrible. The teachers were not that nice. I like it here. The teachers
:24:08. > :24:16.are kind. I have been thought a lot about maths. It is really fun.
:24:17. > :24:22.Latest figures show 1306 E eight are being taught in similar schools in
:24:23. > :24:27.England, an increase of 66% over the last five years, although the number
:24:28. > :24:31.of children overall has risen. Here at Brooklands they believe one
:24:32. > :24:37.reason is the pressure on mainstream head teachers. You have a
:24:38. > :24:43.challenging young person. At the same time they have teachers told,
:24:44. > :24:47.we don't have the money to support the young person. I don't think any
:24:48. > :24:51.young teacher wants to do that. Faced with the culture that we have
:24:52. > :24:56.at the moment, many don't have any choice. Norfolk County Council says
:24:57. > :24:59.exclusions have dropped but are still too high and continue to
:25:00. > :25:04.create pressure locally and nationally. It is working with
:25:05. > :25:08.schools to address the issue. This parent is happy with the education
:25:09. > :25:12.and support her son receives at Brooklands but believes they should
:25:13. > :25:16.have been a better understanding of his condition at his old primary,
:25:17. > :25:21.and a place for him at a special school. He has autism and attention
:25:22. > :25:25.deficit hyperactivity disorder. I was upset because he was being
:25:26. > :25:28.classed as a naughty child. But he wasn't. He had learning
:25:29. > :25:31.difficulties. When they were restraining him he would have
:25:32. > :25:35.bruises on his arms when he finished school. Sometimes he would be locked
:25:36. > :25:40.in a room kicking the walls and head-butting. I felt like every day
:25:41. > :25:44.I was sending my child to a prison. Not school. Experts believe cuts in
:25:45. > :25:48.the help for families who need extra support is one of the reasons for an
:25:49. > :25:51.increase in the use of Pupil Referral Units. Those support
:25:52. > :25:56.services are not there either in helping teachers cope with some of
:25:57. > :26:00.those issues that exhibit themselves in the classroom, or some other
:26:01. > :26:05.feelings young people have about schools, or some feelings they about
:26:06. > :26:09.themselves, then I think we need to look at this quite seriously. The
:26:10. > :26:17.government says children in referral units represent 0.03% of the primary
:26:18. > :26:21.population. These schools ensure children receive a high quality
:26:22. > :26:25.education. As a shortstay school, Brooklyn's is designed to teach
:26:26. > :26:31.children from just two terms but now has some for up to two years. It is
:26:32. > :26:35.highly effective in returning pupils to mainstream or special schools and
:26:36. > :26:37.here they believe every child deserves a second chance and must be
:26:38. > :26:39.given every chance to succeed. Martin Thacker, is head
:26:40. > :26:55.teacher at Calow primary Good morning. Good morning. It is
:26:56. > :26:58.harrowing to hear those stories of a mother talking about the
:26:59. > :27:02.circumstances that her child found themselves in at a mainstream school
:27:03. > :27:08.that led to the exclusion. What is your experience from your school? I
:27:09. > :27:13.have been head teacher for 17 years. My experience is in that time I have
:27:14. > :27:17.permanently excluded three children. The number of children who have been
:27:18. > :27:22.excluded on a fixed term basis has increased over the last two or three
:27:23. > :27:28.years. And can you see a pattern - what have you put that down to?
:27:29. > :27:32.Budget cuts. The number of schools experiencing difficulties with
:27:33. > :27:39.managing budgets has led to issues like staffing, so the actual pupil -
:27:40. > :27:44.staff ratio has increased. The typical ratio is one teacher to
:27:45. > :27:49.every 35 students and we have had to put teaching assistants back and
:27:50. > :27:53.they are the members of staff to support students experiencing
:27:54. > :27:57.difficulties. The implication is you will be put in a situation where you
:27:58. > :28:06.need to exclude students more frequently? I predict that. When you
:28:07. > :28:11.exclude them, what do you think is the best... The best way to help
:28:12. > :28:18.them through this exclusion, is it to be sent home, or a PRU? In the
:28:19. > :28:22.first instance, every teacher tries their hardest not to exclude. You
:28:23. > :28:26.try to work with a range of agencies, behaviour support, teams
:28:27. > :28:30.and so on, to try to implement strategies to help children stay in
:28:31. > :28:35.mainstream education. When it comes to the point that the child is
:28:36. > :28:40.disruptive, maybe violent, putting safety at risk, and others, then you
:28:41. > :28:46.have to look at a fixed term exclusions and leading to permanent
:28:47. > :28:52.exclusions, and ideally into a pupil referral unit so they might as
:28:53. > :28:55.support, the staffing ratio is better, and working into the
:28:56. > :29:00.mainstream. They need to be new to the school, don't they, so you have
:29:01. > :29:04.to have a PRU close to the school so they can be put back into the
:29:05. > :29:10.mainstream? You would hope so, because a child moved by taxi miles
:29:11. > :29:14.away is not ideal for the child. The conclusions, when you look at the
:29:15. > :29:18.statistics, people might think behaviour is getting worse - the
:29:19. > :29:24.picture you are painting is much more nuanced, staffing levels are a
:29:25. > :29:29.huge part of what might in previous times have been something you could
:29:30. > :29:32.cope with? I see some types of assault which have increased and
:29:33. > :29:37.worsened over the years. I don't say that children are more badly
:29:38. > :29:42.behaved. You say assaults? On staff. In primary school? Yes in primary
:29:43. > :29:45.school. Throwing furniture deliberately towards a member of
:29:46. > :29:47.staff, and that is sold. Interesting to talk to you this morning. Thank
:29:48. > :29:51.you -- that is assault. Time now to get the news,
:29:52. > :33:10.travel and weather where you are. I'm back with the latest
:33:11. > :33:16.from the BBC London newsroom Hello, this is Breakfast
:33:17. > :33:21.with Charlie Stayt and Naga In the past half hour we've heard
:33:22. > :33:31.that an emergency meeting is being called of ministers
:33:32. > :33:34.from the key European countries affected by the egg
:33:35. > :33:35.contamination scandal. Here the Food Standards Agency has
:33:36. > :33:38.revealed that 700,000 contaminated eggs have been
:33:39. > :33:40.imported from Dutch farms, but it insists it is "highly
:33:41. > :33:43.unlikely" they pose any risk Sandwiches and salads are among
:33:44. > :33:49.the foods that have now been removed The US Defence Secretary James
:33:50. > :33:55.Mattis says America is still trying to use diplomacy to resolve
:33:56. > :33:58.the growing tension with North Korea - and that war would
:33:59. > :34:00.be catastrophic. He said diplomatic efforts
:34:01. > :34:02.were yielding results, though military options
:34:03. > :34:04.were ready if needed. He made his remarks shortly
:34:05. > :34:06.after President Trump had stepped up his rhetoric - saying his threat
:34:07. > :34:10.to unleash ' fire and fury ' on North Korea might not
:34:11. > :34:16.have been tough enough. Donations made to the victims
:34:17. > :34:19.of the Grenfell Tower fire are not reaching survivors quickly enough,

:34:22. > :34:25.show that less than 15% of the ?18.9 million raised has been given
:34:26. > :34:28.to people affected almost two months after the tragedy, but it says
:34:29. > :34:31.that early difficulties in identifying and contacting those
:34:32. > :34:40.who need help are being overcome. Passengers flying from Gatwick

:35:11. > :35:15.may have used a sonic device that Havana denies the allegation,

:35:35. > :35:38.Sarah will have the weather and some beautiful images from a balloon
:35:39. > :35:44.festival in Bristol. Blue skies and balloons. Very colourful ones, too.
:35:45. > :35:48.Let's go to Jessica, who is at the London Stadium covering the World
:35:49. > :35:52.Athletics Championship. It looks like a grey day from that camera
:35:53. > :35:57.angle, not at least we will not see the rain that we have had in the
:35:58. > :36:03.last couple of days? -- but at least. Yes, good morning. It is
:36:04. > :36:07.drier today. The sun is coming out. It is a very busy here with staff
:36:08. > :36:11.setting up events, but today we are looking forward to Dina Asher-Smith.
:36:12. > :36:18.She was actually in the stadium for the Olympics in 2012, but she was
:36:19. > :36:21.not competing. She was a kit carrier, and she was so inspired by
:36:22. > :36:25.the events that she took athletics more seriously, and five years later
:36:26. > :36:30.here she is racing against some of the rest in the world. -- best.
:36:31. > :36:33.It's been a difficult season for Dina Asher Smith.
:36:34. > :36:37.But she was in impressive form in the 200 metres heats
:36:38. > :36:40.and then last night she dazzled us all again.
:36:41. > :36:43.She finished second in her semi final going through to tonight's
:36:44. > :36:46.She's the only British woman in the showpiece.
:36:47. > :36:50.I had to spend six weeks not doing anything.
:36:51. > :36:59.And then gradually putting weight on it for the next six weeks.
:37:00. > :37:12.I am joking, I would not recommend it.
:37:13. > :37:17.Also in action in the 200 metres last night was Isaac Makwala.
:37:18. > :37:21.But there was no fairytale ending to an incredible few days for him,
:37:22. > :37:26.You'll remember Makwala was forced to miss the final of the 400 metres
:37:27. > :37:30.due to illness and had to run a time trial just to get

:37:42. > :37:44.Turkey's Ramil Gulyev won gold, ahead of Wayde Van Niekerk.
:37:45. > :37:46.Great Britain's Nathaneel Mitchel Blake finished fourth.
:37:47. > :37:50.Makwala blamed his performance on having to run two races the day
:37:51. > :38:00.And disappointment for A-League oil in the 200 metre hurdles. She came
:38:01. > :38:03.last in the finals, which was won by the American Corey Carter.
:38:04. > :38:06.There will be three British women in the semifinals of the women's
:38:07. > :38:10.Lynsey Sharp, Adelle Tracy and Shelayna Oskan Clarke all through.
:38:11. > :38:13.And there will be two British men into tonight's 1500 metres semi
:38:14. > :38:16.Meanwhile, an exhausted Laura Muir qualified for the final
:38:17. > :38:20.She was one of the fastest losers in her semi final,
:38:21. > :38:23.with the exertions of finishing fourth in the 1500 metres
:38:24. > :38:26.earlier this week looking like they've taken their toll on her.
:38:27. > :38:29.Eilish McColgan looked impressive as she also made it through,

:39:07. > :39:12.One other story for you away from the athletics.
:39:13. > :39:14.The Premier League returns tonight with Arsenal playing
:39:15. > :39:18.Arsenal haven't won their opening game since 2014 and manager
:39:19. > :39:20.Arsene Wenger knows they need to change that.
:39:21. > :39:28.We need to transform the quality of the preparation in the points.
:39:29. > :39:34.What matters is the next game and winning it and starting
:39:35. > :39:37.in a strong way which we did not do last year.
:39:38. > :39:42.That is what we want to achieve this year.
:39:43. > :39:51.That final with Dina Asher-Smith in the 200 metres is tonight at about
:39:52. > :39:57.950 p.m. . Also going for gold will be Lorraine Ugen in the women's long
:39:58. > :39:59.jump. And there is a morning session here today. Coverage begins on BBC
:40:00. > :40:03.Two at 930 a.m. . It's August, and for lots of us it
:40:04. > :40:07.means holiday time at the beach. Cue lots of selfies of people
:40:08. > :40:10.strutting about in their swimwear Earlier this week, former Vogue
:40:11. > :40:14.editor Alexandra Shulman posted one selfie that sparked lots of debate
:40:15. > :40:16.as to whether we should edit our pics,
:40:17. > :40:25.or leave them natural. Do you often take selfies? I very
:40:26. > :40:37.rarely take selfies. I don't think that I would. At some people do.
:40:38. > :40:45.The point being with her that she was wearing very little, and if she
:40:46. > :40:47.hadn't been the editor of Vogue, which is famous for taking pictures
:40:48. > :40:48.of a certain style. Now, the All Party Parliamentary
:40:49. > :40:51.Group on Body Image, has told BBC Breakfast
:40:52. > :40:53.it is particularly concerned about "body image anxiety" amongst
:40:54. > :41:07.young people at this time of year. Just do a filter, clear your skin. I
:41:08. > :41:13.do filters on Instagram. Would any of you put up a picture which was
:41:14. > :41:17.not filtered at all? Yeah. If I take a picture, as long as I am good with
:41:18. > :41:20.it, I don't care what anyone else thinks. Do you think there is
:41:21. > :41:24.pressure on you to always be edited, looking your best? I think sometimes
:41:25. > :41:28.it makes you look nicer, and I am not really self-conscious about not
:41:29. > :41:32.using a filter. It makes you look better, knowing that you can have a
:41:33. > :41:37.picture that everybody else will, not appreciate, but everybody else
:41:38. > :41:40.will like it like you do. What about celebrities? When you see their
:41:41. > :41:45.pictures to you presume they are filtered? You often hope they are,
:41:46. > :41:49.because they look that good, and you don't look like that. So it gives
:41:50. > :41:52.you a bit of relief to know that that is not real. I like it when
:41:53. > :41:59.celebrities do natural photos. Then again, you know they have make-up.
:42:00. > :42:02.It is not a surprise. I am going to make your tussle is longer, your
:42:03. > :42:15.waste skinnier. I can put some make-up on you. Wow! I would just
:42:16. > :42:20.say, I think that Hayley looked great before all the adjustments in
:42:21. > :42:23.that selfie. But some people do make adjustments.
:42:24. > :42:26.Joining us now is Natasha Devon, a former model and writer
:42:27. > :42:29.and Kady McDermott, a reality TV star who has almost one million
:42:30. > :42:37.Good morning. Kady, we saw our reporter than having all her images
:42:38. > :42:41.tweaked with filters. I think she looks lovely, that she wouldn't need
:42:42. > :42:47.to change it. Why do people feel the need to tweak how they look? So that
:42:48. > :42:54.it is not a true image of themselves? Social media is massive
:42:55. > :42:59.nowadays. Girls feel very pressured, naturally, when they see all these
:43:00. > :43:03.perfect people. Maybe they are edited, so people do feel under
:43:04. > :43:10.pressure, but it is a very difficult subject. Some people do it and some
:43:11. > :43:15.people don't. Do you? I don't edit my photos but I do use filters, if
:43:16. > :43:18.only to brighten the image. I make sure my quality is good. I take them
:43:19. > :43:23.on a camera, so I tweak the contrast. But I do not edit or
:43:24. > :43:30.change the features on my body in any way. You are a stunning looking
:43:31. > :43:34.woman, but this, the first picture there, does not look like how you
:43:35. > :43:40.look here? Really? You don't think so? I think you look at in real
:43:41. > :43:45.life, personally. Really! Thank you. The point I am making is that people
:43:46. > :43:48.look at these images and see highly glamorised, perfect images, and they
:43:49. > :43:53.think they need to be like that. Do you know what, I get lots of people
:43:54. > :43:58.messaging me and saying, they want to look like me, and it does upset
:43:59. > :44:02.me. I try to respond to people and say they are beautiful the way they
:44:03. > :44:07.are. But on my Instagram I upload photos, I do Snapchat Sioux without
:44:08. > :44:10.a scrap one as well. I have got folder was from the age of 11
:44:11. > :44:15.following me so it is really important to me that I do not edit
:44:16. > :44:20.my photos. -- I have got followers on the age of 11. I would never edit
:44:21. > :44:24.a photo so that people think it does not look like me because that's is
:44:25. > :44:25.showing in 11-year-olds that they should edit their photos. They
:44:26. > :44:39.should be confident in themselves. There is evidence in the arena. For
:44:40. > :44:43.those prolific social media users, part of the brain in the frontal
:44:44. > :44:47.lobe responsible for understanding how you fit in the social hierarchy,
:44:48. > :44:52.which can become enlarged in adolescents who spend a lot of time
:44:53. > :44:55.online. That means they are obsessively concerned with how they
:44:56. > :45:02.compare with other people. That has an effect with everything. So the
:45:03. > :45:06.girl guide attitude survey found 52% of 12- 14-year-old girls avoid
:45:07. > :45:10.everyday school activities because they don't like the way that they
:45:11. > :45:15.look. You have to respect information like that. Maybe taking
:45:16. > :45:20.the focus away from individual social media users. That kind of
:45:21. > :45:23.blame is not useful. Looking at social media as an incredible tool
:45:24. > :45:28.to share information and ask ourselves if we are using it in the
:45:29. > :45:32.best way that we can. Help with that one - I am not quite clear what you
:45:33. > :45:37.are saying. Should we be more relaxed about the altering of images
:45:38. > :45:44.on social media - is that what you are saying? What Alexander has done
:45:45. > :45:50.is positive, someone who has... I work in the fashion industry 20
:45:51. > :45:55.years ago. Even then she was a name, she is a alpha female. For her to
:45:56. > :45:58.say, I didn't put my life on hold, I have achieved these things and I
:45:59. > :46:07.look normal underneath my clothes. The difference with Alexandra and
:46:08. > :46:14.Katie is age and who is more able to be related with an young people are
:46:15. > :46:20.likely to want to look like Katie's image and brand than Alexandra, even
:46:21. > :46:24.though she is successful and smart, she is from a different generation
:46:25. > :46:29.and she is not someone they can relate to. Perhaps not relate to,
:46:30. > :46:33.though she is aspirational in that she has achieved a lot. We do young
:46:34. > :46:37.people a disservice if we assume they are narcissistic or want to
:46:38. > :46:41.look at certain way. There are a lot of ambitious young women who need
:46:42. > :46:45.role models. What do you think when there is a parliamentary body that
:46:46. > :46:48.says it is the time of year to be much more concerned about how young
:46:49. > :46:53.people feel, and young people assessing their looks - who takes
:46:54. > :47:04.responsibility, as someone with influence over the generation, in
:47:05. > :47:09.influencing them? My following is 90% women. I have girls messaging me
:47:10. > :47:14.all the time and ladies up to 50- 60, they say that I give them
:47:15. > :47:18.motivation. I am a size six and very little, though I still have stretch
:47:19. > :47:22.marks, and I have uploaded straight from the beach, some might look more
:47:23. > :47:26.perfect, there are some on holiday with my boyfriend and people like
:47:27. > :47:31.that I could have easily downloaded an app, smoothed it over and said I
:47:32. > :47:36.don't have stretch marks. I am happy with myself. People have messaged me
:47:37. > :47:40.to say that I have helped them to give them confidence as well. People
:47:41. > :47:44.say that people look perfect on the outside, though you're not, always,
:47:45. > :47:51.everyone has flaws, and it is about embracing that. Thank you so much of
:47:52. > :47:58.this morning. Tell us what you think. Stay in touch. Whether or not
:47:59. > :48:00.you filter your selfies or not. I will tell you who needs no filter,
:48:01. > :48:00.Sarah. Sarah's bringing us the weather
:48:01. > :48:07.from the Bristol International The pictures are stunning. The
:48:08. > :48:14.balloons are impressive. I am loving your coat this morning. It is a
:48:15. > :48:20.gorgeous morning here. We have sunshine to start the day. We have
:48:21. > :48:26.had the mass ascent this morning, 104 balloons taken to the skies. You
:48:27. > :48:32.can see some small model hot air balloons. These are scale models of
:48:33. > :48:36.the bigger balloons as well. It is a Sareen morning. We have blue skies.
:48:37. > :48:42.Quite tranquil. There is some sunshine and light winds. -- serene.
:48:43. > :48:44.Elsewhere across the country, a front moving in.
:48:45. > :48:53.There will be outbreaks of rain at times. Across much of England it is
:48:54. > :48:58.a gorgeous morning with lots of sunshine, try it with light winds, a
:48:59. > :49:02.little cloud in parts of the south and west and south east of England.
:49:03. > :49:09.A little bit of mist and murk. Quite fresh feeling around 14- 15. Heading
:49:10. > :49:12.north across the country, blue skies and sunshine. Across northern
:49:13. > :49:18.England, there will be cloud and rain at 9am across Northumberland
:49:19. > :49:22.and Cumbria, and rain in Scotland. Sunshine for eastern Scotland around
:49:23. > :49:26.Aberdeenshire. For western Scotland we have cloud and outbreaks of rain.
:49:27. > :49:31.Continuing into Northern Ireland. It will be windy with the rain around
:49:32. > :49:36.as well. The rain moves in across the rest of Wales. Central and east
:49:37. > :49:41.Wales is fine and dry. Much of south-west England begins on a fine
:49:42. > :49:44.note, with a little rain in western Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly.
:49:45. > :49:48.The rain in the north and west, along with the strong wind, will
:49:49. > :49:56.shift south eastwards. Much of south-east England and south and
:49:57. > :50:02.East Anglia should be fine. 22 degrees. Elsewhere, typically 17-
:50:03. > :50:06.19. It will feel quite breezy. Through the evening the band of rain
:50:07. > :50:10.crosses through the south-east of England and East Anglia, followed by
:50:11. > :50:15.clear spells and showers across all of the country overnight. The
:50:16. > :50:19.showers will ease away and the wind will fall lighter, so temperatures
:50:20. > :50:25.fall overnight around 13- 15 degrees in towns and cities, and cold in the
:50:26. > :50:30.countryside. What about the weekend? High pressure is moving in. It is an
:50:31. > :50:35.improving picture. Plenty of sunshine on Saturday. Showers around
:50:36. > :50:40.parts of Scotland, northern England. Many avoiding those showers. And by
:50:41. > :50:44.the afternoon in the sunny spells we will see top temperatures between
:50:45. > :50:50.16- 22, so not bad, some showers and breezy. I pressure stays in charge
:50:51. > :50:54.as we look at the second half of the weekend. Another largely dry day on
:50:55. > :50:58.Sunday with the odd rogue shower around, though many of we the
:50:59. > :51:05.showers with temperatures between 16- 21 degrees or so. So, rain at
:51:06. > :51:09.times, but we will see a mainly fine weekend.
:51:10. > :51:13.Thanks very much. It really does look marvellous. We will speak to
:51:14. > :51:16.you later. So, Ben is talking to us this morning about women in
:51:17. > :51:27.business. Yes, fascinating stories. We often
:51:28. > :51:31.talk to people who are doing some quite cool things. We are going to
:51:32. > :51:34.talk about that this morning. Yes - this is the latest in our
:51:35. > :51:37.inspirational businesswoman series. Today's guest founded a tech company
:51:38. > :51:41.that works with big brands to make sure their adverts get
:51:42. > :51:43.seen and shared online. They use all sorts of data to work
:51:44. > :51:46.out how and why something Sarah's been involved in famous
:51:47. > :51:50.adverts like the Evian rollerskating babies ad and the Dove
:51:51. > :52:23.body sketches ad. # hip, hot. # the rhythm of the
:52:24. > :52:27.boogie. Today I am gonna ask you some questions about a person you
:52:28. > :52:31.met earlier, and I am gonna ask you some general questions about her
:52:32. > :52:40.face. She was thin, so you could see her cheekbones. And her chin was no
:52:41. > :52:42.sense in. She had nice eyes. -- her chin was nice and thin. She had nice
:52:43. > :52:56.blue eyes. Hi, ben. You don't make the ads.
:52:57. > :53:00.Crucially, you make viral. We make them famous, we are a technology
:53:01. > :53:05.platform, and the date we have been collecting over the last decade is
:53:06. > :53:11.what we use to connect 90% of the biggest brands with 1.4 billion
:53:12. > :53:15.consumers. You make it sound very easy - how do you do that? A lot
:53:16. > :53:20.goes into it, though essentially we collect data on why people connect
:53:21. > :53:25.with videos, what gets them sharing content and what gets them reacting
:53:26. > :53:30.to the content. We found a motion is key. Creating a stronger emotional
:53:31. > :53:33.impact is what makes all of the difference -- emotion. When we think
:53:34. > :53:38.about bringing emotional intelligence to digital advertising.
:53:39. > :53:41.We have a lot of connection with ads, thinking specifically about
:53:42. > :53:45.supermarkets at Christmas, the John Lewis ad, the Sainsbury is that,
:53:46. > :53:52.those are the ones we like and share and wait for. -- Sainsbury is ad.
:53:53. > :53:56.That has changed. We actively search out advertising in a way that we
:53:57. > :54:01.thought, you know, I want to avoid it. The best ads become content. You
:54:02. > :54:05.see this at moments such as the Super Bowl in the US and Christmas
:54:06. > :54:09.here. The feelings of anticipation and excitement gets people enjoying
:54:10. > :54:14.the content, remembering the ad and wanting to purchase from the brand.
:54:15. > :54:19.It has not always been about tech for you, has it? Let's go back a
:54:20. > :54:25.couple of years. You left a job as a history lecturer to start this firm.
:54:26. > :54:28.Why? I was lecturing American studies at Sussex University, I was
:54:29. > :54:31.an academic, in a job I loved with colleagues are loved, and I was
:54:32. > :54:36.teaching the American Revolution, and what I realised was there was a
:54:37. > :54:40.revolution going on outside the door, the Internet revolution and
:54:41. > :54:43.the social web is becoming huge. And I wanted to be part of that. Then
:54:44. > :54:48.there were personal reasons as well - I was a mother of two of doing the
:54:49. > :54:52.long commute from London into Sussex, and every week I left my son
:54:53. > :54:58.at the nursery and it broke my heart. It was difficult to change
:54:59. > :55:03.this. What is it that triggers this moment of change? It was 7/7. I was
:55:04. > :55:07.on the system when the bomb exploded. Luckily, was caught up. I
:55:08. > :55:11.was evacuated from the station. I went home feeling lucky and I
:55:12. > :55:16.thought, if it was my last day, am I making it count? That is when I made
:55:17. > :55:20.the change of. People for that you were mad to make the change, leaving
:55:21. > :55:26.a good job, you had a mortgage, you had kids, and you said, we're gonna
:55:27. > :55:30.start a business - how did you make the decision to take the gamble on
:55:31. > :55:34.it? Starting a business is like having kids - there is never the
:55:35. > :55:38.right time, there is always a reason not to do it. What I learned as an
:55:39. > :55:42.academic is it is great to be curious and those who succeed keep
:55:43. > :55:45.learning and exploring ideas and those who are prepared to take
:55:46. > :55:50.risks. So it felt like a good time because we could see this big
:55:51. > :56:03.opportunity in social media, Nvidia advertising. We take it for granted,
:56:04. > :56:06.although you were starting this business, there was no Twitter or
:56:07. > :56:08.Facebook -- video advertising. You spotted the trend. It was an
:56:09. > :56:11.incredibly disruptive business model. Web advertising was just
:56:12. > :56:15.becoming a thing. There was no advertising on YouTube. We took a
:56:16. > :56:19.risk on that. We could see huge interest. We do that by iteating. We
:56:20. > :56:23.had a comedy website first. What we saw was lots of people loved video
:56:24. > :56:35.-- iterating. So successful, Rupert Murdoch's approached you, news Corp
:56:36. > :56:41.now owns you. -- Newscorp. Is there a worry that you are selling at? We
:56:42. > :56:45.are autonomous. And Newscorp have purchased us because of our
:56:46. > :56:49.entrepreneurial culture. They have started up a lab that is about
:56:50. > :56:53.bringing on board six companies to incubate ideas to create the future
:56:54. > :56:57.of storytelling and journalism. I think Newscorp, like lots of others,
:56:58. > :57:04.understand the importance of innovative thinking. So much more I
:57:05. > :57:10.want to talk to you about, Sarah, and you are not going anywhere - we
:57:11. > :57:16.will continue this conversation on Facebook Live on the BBC Breakfast
:57:17. > :57:19.page at 8:15am, so send in your questions and I will put them to
:57:20. > :57:24.her, she is going to stick around. Thank you very much. I won't have
:57:25. > :57:28.you answer it now but I want to know your favourite advert of all-time.
:57:29. > :57:29.Put it on Facebook. Thank you. It is on.
:57:30. > :00:48.Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are.

:04:17. > :04:18.And the Agency said you would have to eat 10,000 contaminated eggs
:04:19. > :04:29.The reason we have asked to withdraw the product from the shelf is an
:04:30. > :04:32.issue of trust in food, these eggs have something in them which should
:04:33. > :04:36.not be there and that is why we are asking for the eggs to be withdrawn,
:04:37. > :04:39.not because of the public health risk.
:04:40. > :04:41.So far, some salads and sandwiches sold by these four supermarkets have
:04:42. > :04:44.been withdrawn from sale, but whole eggs are safe.
:04:45. > :04:46.Despite those reassurances, the scandal continues to spread
:04:47. > :04:49.through Europe, with 11 countries now thought to be affected.
:04:50. > :04:51.Millions of eggs will be destroyed, as will hundreds
:04:52. > :04:55.Four years ago, horsemeat was found in burgers and ready-meals.
:04:56. > :04:57.Once again, questions are being raised about what goes
:04:58. > :05:00.into our processed foods and where it comes from.
:05:01. > :05:05.Officials hope the contaminated eggs will be out of the food chain soon,
:05:06. > :05:07.but the investigation into Europe's latest food scandal is likely to go
:05:08. > :05:23.Hundreds of people are going to be moved out of their high rise flats -
:05:24. > :05:25.after an investigation has revealed they are not safe there.
:05:26. > :05:27.242 flats in South East London are affected.
:05:28. > :05:29.The issue with the gas supply was discovered
:05:30. > :05:31.during an investigation into fire safety prompted by the
:05:32. > :05:35.Dan Johnson is there with the latest.
:05:36. > :05:44.Explain the nature of the problem? Residents in these blocks are waking
:05:45. > :05:48.up to letters from the council which say the gas has been cut off with
:05:49. > :05:53.immediate effect and they are going to have to move out in the longer
:05:54. > :05:58.term so work can take place to make the tower blocks safe. This all
:05:59. > :06:01.started in the wake of the Grenfell Tower when extra examinations were
:06:02. > :06:07.carried out but this is not about the cladding, or primarily about
:06:08. > :06:11.fire safety, this is about whether the concrete structure could
:06:12. > :06:15.withstand a gas explosion and that all goes back to an explosion had
:06:16. > :06:20.another tower block in the late 60s here in London which led to a
:06:21. > :06:24.collapse and four debts. Work was supposed to have been carried out on
:06:25. > :06:28.blocks of a similar design to make sure they could withstand that sort
:06:29. > :06:31.of explosion so the council thought these were safe but during this
:06:32. > :06:36.latest inspection it has been revealed but the work probably
:06:37. > :06:41.wasn't actually carried out so an incident almost 50 years ago still
:06:42. > :06:46.having implications, another fine for people to worry about and
:06:47. > :06:50.something which might affect more buildings than just the four here.
:06:51. > :06:56.It looks like there are 242 flights a year that will be affected, people
:06:57. > :06:59.have been given temporary heaters because they have no gas but it's
:07:00. > :07:03.going to need major structural work to make these tower blocks safe.
:07:04. > :07:06.Donations made to the victims of the Grenfell Tower fire are not
:07:07. > :07:07.reaching survivors quickly enough, according to campaigners
:07:08. > :07:15.Figures from the Charity Commission show that
:07:16. > :07:19.raised has been given to people affected almost two months
:07:20. > :07:21.after the tragedy - but it says that early difficulties
:07:22. > :07:28.in identifying and contacting those who need help are being overcome.
:07:29. > :07:31.There's been a sharp fall in the value of shares in the social
:07:32. > :07:35.They fell by nearly 17%, after the owners of the photo
:07:36. > :07:37.messaging app reported more than ?300 million
:07:38. > :07:40.The number of users was lower than expected and market analysts
:07:41. > :07:43.say the company has been struggling with fierce competition from rivals
:07:44. > :07:49.The airports and airlines with the worst summer flight
:07:50. > :08:01.I am sorry, I am always the bearer of bad news, we have been looking at
:08:02. > :08:08.data for airports and airlines over the last couple of summers, it's not
:08:09. > :08:13.good news. One in five flights to and from the UK now has the average
:08:14. > :08:17.delay of 30 minutes and that has been a real concern. 30 minutes in
:08:18. > :08:27.itself is nothing to worry about but it's becoming common. EasyJet is the
:08:28. > :08:35.worst, average delays of 24 minutes. Gatwick is the worst airport for
:08:36. > :08:40.delays, on average 27 minutes. The two things we should say, easyJet
:08:41. > :08:44.say we carry 78 million passengers a year so we are the biggest airlines
:08:45. > :08:49.so we will have more delays, Gatwick says we have one runway and face a
:08:50. > :08:53.lot of congestion when we fly predominantly to Europe and that is
:08:54. > :08:58.where police come into place. Some good news? Yes, if you are
:08:59. > :09:05.travelling from a regional airport chances are be West delayed, Belfast
:09:06. > :09:08.and Leeds Bradford had the least delays. So you might wonder why we
:09:09. > :09:15.still have so many delays well it's the usual combination of air traffic
:09:16. > :09:20.control strikes in France, Spain, Italy and Greece, lots of bad
:09:21. > :09:24.weather which can disrupt things and congestion in the air, we know there
:09:25. > :09:28.is debate about the extra runway at Heathrow and Gatwick just has one
:09:29. > :09:32.runway, so contending with all that airlines are inevitable but the
:09:33. > :09:36.airlines are trying to cut it down. There is also a claim for more
:09:37. > :09:39.compensation, that we should not have to ask for it when there are
:09:40. > :09:41.delays, that it should come automatically. I am sure many would
:09:42. > :09:45.agree. The US Defence Secretary James
:09:46. > :09:48.Mattis says America is still trying to use diplomacy to resolve
:09:49. > :09:50.the growing tension with North Korea -
:09:51. > :09:52.and that war would be catastrophic. He said diplomatic efforts
:09:53. > :09:54.were yielding results, though military options
:09:55. > :09:55.were ready if needed. He made his remarks shortly
:09:56. > :09:57.after President Trump had stepped up his rhetoric -
:09:58. > :10:00.saying his threat to unleash 'fire and fury' on North Korea might not
:10:01. > :10:12.have been tough enough. The American effort has
:10:13. > :10:18.diplomatically lead, it has diplomatic structure and, it is
:10:19. > :10:22.gaining diplomatic results and I want to stay right there, right now.
:10:23. > :10:27.The tragedy of war is well enough known, it does not need another
:10:28. > :10:32.characterisation beyond the fact it would be catastrophic. Lets see what
:10:33. > :10:38.he does with Guam. He does something in Guam it will be an event the
:10:39. > :10:40.likes of which nobody seen before, what will happen in North Korea.
:10:41. > :10:47.Robin Brant is in Seoul for us this morning -
:10:48. > :10:56.People are wondering, how are people they are reacting to this rise in
:10:57. > :11:01.quite aggressive rhetoric? What a contrast in tone, we have said it
:11:02. > :11:04.before and it will not surprise you but life goes on here. There is the
:11:05. > :11:08.potential of conflict with the neighbours to the north for decades
:11:09. > :11:12.and yes the rhetoric has got worse and the president and the White
:11:13. > :11:15.House who speaks like previous presidents have never spoken and a
:11:16. > :11:20.belligerent is coming from Pyongyang as well but nonetheless they face
:11:21. > :11:27.the prospect of a conventional conflict just 35 miles up the road.
:11:28. > :11:32.I think there will be those in South Korea who take some assurances from
:11:33. > :11:37.other words from Donald Trump overnight, he said he did not think
:11:38. > :11:41.North Korea could go around threatening North America but its
:11:42. > :11:44.allies South Korea and Japan which reminds people of the strong
:11:45. > :11:50.military alliance which is important to defend and protect. But this is a
:11:51. > :11:54.country which recently elected a president who is more consolatory in
:11:55. > :11:58.tone and he envisages hopefully bringing the North back to the
:11:59. > :12:02.negotiating table and trying to negotiate a lasting peace and
:12:03. > :12:08.perhaps that is more along the lines of what James Matthews is talking
:12:09. > :12:12.about in terms of their speeding up automatic effort. Banks were
:12:13. > :12:24.keeping. More than two months
:12:25. > :12:26.after the Manchester bombing, which left 22 people dead and more
:12:27. > :12:29.than 100 injured, nine people Robby Potter and his partner
:12:30. > :12:35.Leonora Ogerio were waiting to collect their daughters
:12:36. > :12:38.from the Ariana Grande concert. They were standing right next
:12:39. > :12:40.to the suicide bomber Robby has just been
:12:41. > :12:47.discharged from hospital, and we'll be speaking to him
:12:48. > :12:50.in a moment. First here's our correspondent
:12:51. > :12:53.Judith Moritz with his story. This was Robby Potter
:12:54. > :13:00.with his girlfriend Leonora after They stood next to the attacker
:13:01. > :13:07.and lived to tell the tale. I've never asked his name,
:13:08. > :13:18.I'll never ask his name. No point hating a man
:13:19. > :13:23.that's already dead. They'd gone to collect
:13:24. > :13:30.their kids from the concert. The children were safe inside,
:13:31. > :13:32.but their parents were in the lobby The brightest flash I've
:13:33. > :13:38.ever seen in my life. It was like a cloud of mercury
:13:39. > :13:41.exploding, you just seen bits of silver flying everywhere,
:13:42. > :13:43.which was obviously the bolts and nuts he'd packed
:13:44. > :13:46.into his bag and his body. Eventually just dived,
:13:47. > :13:48.just collapsed and fell on the floor but I found out I'd obviously
:13:49. > :13:51.punctured my lung and had a couple This bolt, fired from the bomb
:13:52. > :13:58.straight into Robbie's heart. He cheated death
:13:59. > :14:02.by a hair's breadth. You can see the two ribs here,
:14:03. > :14:06.that's the back of the ribs. The bolt was removed with incredible
:14:07. > :14:08.precision by this surgeon It was wedged between the back
:14:09. > :14:13.wall and the front wall of the two blood vessels,
:14:14. > :14:16.so a millimetre either way Thankfully it didn't,
:14:17. > :14:20.but we wouldn't be having this One, two, three, four,
:14:21. > :14:30.I declare a thumb war. Robbie's daughter Teagan
:14:31. > :14:33.was separated from her dad Next time she saw him,
:14:34. > :14:37.he was in a coma. She called him names
:14:38. > :14:40.to try and wake him up. It's just hard to see it,
:14:41. > :14:44.with him just lying there, not talking, having machines
:14:45. > :14:50.all over him. Teagan said "Come on,
:14:51. > :14:55.Fathead, it's Peahead." As soon as that happened, the eyes
:14:56. > :15:01.just lifted, and from that day, Robby's girlfriend Leonora was also
:15:02. > :15:09.badly hurt and sedated in hospital. She and Robby each face many
:15:10. > :15:13.months of rehabilitation. Before the blast,
:15:14. > :15:18.Robby played rugby. But he says he's determined that one
:15:19. > :15:41.day he'll play again. Good morning. Good morning. Quite
:15:42. > :15:45.tough watching that back? Big memories. You were discharged from
:15:46. > :15:52.hospital on Tuesday? You have been back home? How is it? To be honest,
:15:53. > :15:56.very strange. I have been used in hospital for almost three months, a
:15:57. > :16:00.shock but I am still getting around. My daughter and dad have been
:16:01. > :16:04.brilliant, the supporters of the rugby club, the whole rugby
:16:05. > :16:08.community. We will talk more about Teagan in a moment. We saw your
:16:09. > :16:13.surgeon, you said an amazing man. Torque is through the business of
:16:14. > :16:19.whether shrapnel was and how close you were to things being so much
:16:20. > :16:24.worse? He explained to me the main one went through my heart. 20
:16:25. > :16:29.millimetres from an artery, but the other bolt, the doctor told me a
:16:30. > :16:34.millimetre either side, as his words were, I would not be here. You said
:16:35. > :16:38.a moment or go that is the difference between new breeding in
:16:39. > :16:42.or breathing out. Whatever I was doing that night, breathing in or
:16:43. > :16:47.breathing out, I would have died, obviously. How is your heart? I went
:16:48. > :16:55.last Wednesday, he is fully impressed with my recovery, I have
:16:56. > :16:58.got my fitness back. I have never smoked, that has helped. The base
:16:59. > :17:03.and you played rugby. You talk about your family and your rugby friends.
:17:04. > :17:10.The rugby club have been brilliant, they have given me my extra
:17:11. > :17:14.strength. The team that I play for have a charity day for me. They have
:17:15. > :17:19.given me strength. So many people have wished me well. When I feel
:17:20. > :17:24.down I think I have to do it for them, they want to be back. It is
:17:25. > :17:30.amazing what family can do. My dad has been amazing, he is 75 and has
:17:31. > :17:36.become like a 25-year-old. He sorted out my bills, we had hassle from the
:17:37. > :17:48.paper press, he dealt with that. Antiguan. Teagan the tiger. She has
:17:49. > :17:51.been so mature, she had to walk through at the end, walking past her
:17:52. > :17:54.dad lying on the floor dead, she has walked through a battlefield. We
:17:55. > :17:57.heard reference to the time when you were in hospital and she was trying
:17:58. > :18:01.to help bring you around, talking to you. Presumably you remember
:18:02. > :18:05.nothing? For three weeks lots of people came and talked over me, I
:18:06. > :18:09.was completely out of it, I did not breathe when I was off the machines,
:18:10. > :18:14.I relied on the machines. When I was semi coming round my father tried
:18:15. > :18:21.talking to me, I did not respond, Teagan came in, she called me
:18:22. > :18:26.Fathead and said it was Peahead. Did it have an impact? It opened my
:18:27. > :18:31.eyes. In the first time for over three weeks I saw clear. And she was
:18:32. > :18:38.there? The little Tiger was there and asked me for a sum wrestle
:18:39. > :18:43.straightaway. It is ?1 a go! We can have a game but I will take your
:18:44. > :18:49.money. We saw a picture of your partner Leonora in hospital with
:18:50. > :18:56.you. What happened? You and Leonora were in the lobby? In the foyer
:18:57. > :19:00.area. Both your little girls were in the concert? Thankfully away from
:19:01. > :19:07.that part? She finished late, that probably saved hundreds of kids. How
:19:08. > :19:11.is Teagan and Leonora? She has been brilliant, never missed a day of
:19:12. > :19:15.school, she came to see me all the time, she helps me get around, she
:19:16. > :19:25.even pushed me in a wheelchair. She has good arms on her! She has been a
:19:26. > :19:28.star. Everybody listening to your story, I am getting a sense of your
:19:29. > :19:32.personality already. You are one of those people, you joke about
:19:33. > :19:37.things... You've got to a life, haven't you? How are you, I suppose
:19:38. > :19:43.there's what I am asking. People who have been through such a terrible
:19:44. > :19:47.event, your family as well, what has been the impact? I still think about
:19:48. > :19:51.all the time, sometimes I feel a bit guilty because my girlfriend is
:19:52. > :19:54.still in hospital, what I put Teagan through, having to walk through a
:19:55. > :20:03.minefield, it is something she always wanted to see, that concert.
:20:04. > :20:05.I can still see the blast in my head. I have had counselling, which
:20:06. > :20:09.is coming on pretty good. I still have lots of rehab to do with my
:20:10. > :20:13.nerves in my leg, the good thing is my heart is OK. The NHS have been
:20:14. > :20:18.brilliant, from the doctors to the cleaners, they would bring me a cup
:20:19. > :20:23.of tea every morning. The Porter used to sneak a few bets on because
:20:24. > :20:32.I could not get Sky Bet on, I should not mention not, sorry! They gave me
:20:33. > :20:36.strength. It is like the river, it is not the power of the river that
:20:37. > :20:39.breaks the rock down, it is the persistence of the river. My friends
:20:40. > :20:44.and family have give me that persistence. I've got to get back to
:20:45. > :20:48.work, I've got to play rugby again. They have taken nothing from me. The
:20:49. > :20:53.biggest thing is I have to get my confidence up to go to a concert
:20:54. > :20:57.again. It has been amazing talking to you this morning. Thank you so
:20:58. > :21:02.much. We met Teagan earlier and she looks like she is in great form and
:21:03. > :21:12.a great support, as is all your family, and we wish you all the best
:21:13. > :21:13.with your recovery. I am sure you will get to that concert. I hope so.
:21:14. > :21:16.Thank you very much. Sarah's bringing us the weather
:21:17. > :21:26.from the Bristol International This is the 39th International
:21:27. > :21:31.balloon Festival in Bristol, the largest annual gathering of hot air
:21:32. > :21:35.balloons in Europe. We have already seen 104 balloons taking off in the
:21:36. > :21:38.morning Mass ascent. Bullying is still behind me, tethered at the
:21:39. > :21:45.moment, we have some miniature model balloons. This event runs over four
:21:46. > :21:48.days, it is free to attend and we expect to see about half a million
:21:49. > :21:53.people visiting. It is a tranquil start to the day
:21:54. > :21:58.with sunshine and light winds. Elsewhere across the country we
:21:59. > :22:02.expect a bit of rain. There is a weather front moving from west to
:22:03. > :22:06.east. This morning's weather looks fine and dry across Bristol and much
:22:07. > :22:12.of southern and central England, with sunshine and light winds.
:22:13. > :22:16.A bit cloud, particularly across the south-east of England, temperatures
:22:17. > :22:20.warming into the mid teens. Northwards across the country,
:22:21. > :22:23.sunshine across much of the Midlands and into northern England, but some
:22:24. > :22:28.rain for parts of Cumbria and Northumberland through the morning.
:22:29. > :22:33.That continues into southern Scotland. Eastern Scotland should
:22:34. > :22:37.see brightness, heavy rain for the West of Scotland. Quite windy as
:22:38. > :22:41.well. For Northern Ireland, looking pretty cloudy with outbreaks of
:22:42. > :22:44.rain. Some of that will push into West and Wales, central and East
:22:45. > :22:48.Wales are fine and dry with sunshine across much of the West Country. We
:22:49. > :22:52.will see rain pushing and across parts of Corbel through the morning.
:22:53. > :22:57.This band of rain across the North and the West of the country edges
:22:58. > :23:02.slowly south eastwards through the course of the day. For the
:23:03. > :23:04.south-east of England and East Anglia you should avoid the wet
:23:05. > :23:07.weather through much of the day, staying dry with temperatures up to
:23:08. > :23:11.around 22 degrees in the south-east. Elsewhere typically 17 to 19 with
:23:12. > :23:15.cloud quite breezy with the outbreaks of rain. It will turn to
:23:16. > :23:19.showery weather from the north-west later in the day. Heading into the
:23:20. > :23:24.evening, that band of rain and strong winds pushes gradually
:23:25. > :23:28.towards the south-east and clearer skies with some showers as we head
:23:29. > :23:32.to the cause tonight. Most of those showers will ease away and the winds
:23:33. > :23:37.for lighter overnight, temperatures down to 13 to 15 in the towns and
:23:38. > :23:42.cities but a bit colder in the countryside. Saturday morning for
:23:43. > :23:45.many gets off to a fine start with sunshine, some showers on Saturday
:23:46. > :23:50.across parts of northern England, Wales and Scotland, many of us will
:23:51. > :23:56.avoid the showers altogether, so not a bad day. Winds easing and
:23:57. > :24:00.temperatures around 16 to 22 degrees on Saturday. High-pressure staying
:24:01. > :24:04.with us into the second half of the weekend. Sunday should be another
:24:05. > :24:11.mostly dry day, we could catch the odd rogue shower in the East but
:24:12. > :24:14.many places again avoiding the showers. Light winds, sunshine and
:24:15. > :24:19.temperatures around 16 to 22. The weekend looks fine and dry, but for
:24:20. > :24:23.many you will see rain and winds arriving later today. That is how it
:24:24. > :24:27.is looking, back to Charlie and Naga.
:24:28. > :24:30.STUDIO: We don't mind a little bit but it would be nice if we crept
:24:31. > :24:34.back into those temperatures, is there any hint of that in the
:24:35. > :24:38.long-term forecast at all? It is looking a bit better through next
:24:39. > :24:42.week, we have had some really unsettled conditions over the past
:24:43. > :24:45.three weeks, some optimism, particularly in the south the
:24:46. > :24:50.weather looks settled. I have been fascinated by the square
:24:51. > :24:56.hot-air balloon. How does it keep that shape?
:24:57. > :25:01.All I was thinking earlier is that regular blues that you blow up
:25:02. > :25:06.naturally, you can't buy a square one. Logic tells me that all
:25:07. > :25:10.balloons should be... Anyway, there will be an answer somewhere, it is
:25:11. > :25:14.me thinking out loud. I would think putting seems in a
:25:15. > :25:20.rubber balloon would be difficult. Sarah, will you get a ride? Will we
:25:21. > :25:24.get the forecast from the air? I have been up, only in a tethered
:25:25. > :25:28.balloon. About ten feet off the ground or so. I don't know if I will
:25:29. > :25:33.be lucky enough to take to the skies. We will be chatting to the
:25:34. > :25:37.festival's founder later in the morning, we will see what he says.
:25:38. > :25:42.Use your charm! Thank you, we will speak later. If
:25:43. > :25:46.the weather is nice and you by the seaside, may be looking for things
:25:47. > :25:53.on the beach, look at this in Norfolk. The wide shot does not do
:25:54. > :25:57.it justice, as it closes in, this is a gigantic pipe that has washed up
:25:58. > :26:01.on the shore. The Maritime and coastguard agency confirmed two
:26:02. > :26:07.other measuring eight feet in diameter, you can see a tiny person,
:26:08. > :26:13.get a sense of scale. This is the plugged end. They were
:26:14. > :26:17.being told, they untethered. They were around 1500 feet long, being
:26:18. > :26:22.towed to North Africa. Apparently there are another ten lots of these
:26:23. > :26:26.pipe segments still at sea. They pose no danger or risk of pollution
:26:27. > :26:29.or whatever, but they are impressive.
:26:30. > :26:34.As fines on the beach go, that is quite big!
:26:35. > :26:38.And 8-foot wide diameter, 1500 feet, perfect pipes for running through.
:26:39. > :26:43.We have asked if you have had similar incidents happening to you,
:26:44. > :26:47.things you have found on the beach. Let us know, send them in. I don't
:26:48. > :26:52.think anyone else will have found a pipe like that! But you get some
:26:53. > :26:54.funny things washed up on the beach. We will show your pictures a little
:26:55. > :26:56.later. Time to get the news, travel and
:26:57. > :30:17.where you are. Now, though, it's back
:30:18. > :30:19.to Charlie and Naga. Hello this is Breakfast with
:30:20. > :30:30.Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty. It is 8:30am. The main stories this
:30:31. > :30:36.morning... An emergency meeting is being called
:30:37. > :30:39.by the EU to discuss the Europe-wide Here, the Food Standards Agency has
:30:40. > :30:42.revealed that 700,000 contaminated eggs have been imported
:30:43. > :30:45.from Dutch farms, but it insists it is "highly unlikely" they pose
:30:46. > :30:48.any risk to human health. Sandwiches and salads are among
:30:49. > :30:51.the foods that have now been removed The director of the Institute
:30:52. > :30:58.for Global Food Safety, Chris Elliott, told BBC Breakfast
:30:59. > :31:01.that the involvement of Europol I think even more significant than
:31:02. > :31:08.the work of the European Commission is the work of Europol,
:31:09. > :31:10.the European police force. So they're now conducting
:31:11. > :31:13.a European wide investigation, to see how far this illegal
:31:14. > :31:17.use has spread. There is a potential that other
:31:18. > :31:20.member states may become embroiled in this scandal over
:31:21. > :31:25.the next few days. So I guess what everybody is trying
:31:26. > :31:35.to do is to find out the level of the amount of abuse that
:31:36. > :31:37.has gone on, where have those products gone to,
:31:38. > :31:40.to and can they be withdrawn Not only across Europe,
:31:41. > :31:43.but right across the world. The US Defence Secretary James
:31:44. > :31:45.Mattis says America is still trying to use diplomacy to resolve
:31:46. > :31:47.the growing tension with North Korea, and that war
:31:48. > :31:49.would be catastrophic. He said diplomatic efforts
:31:50. > :31:51.were yielding results, though military options
:31:52. > :31:54.were ready if needed. He made his remarks shortly
:31:55. > :31:56.after President Trump had stepped up his rhetoric,
:31:57. > :31:58.saying his threat to unleash "fire and fury" on North Korea might not
:31:59. > :32:05.have been tough enough. Canada's foreign ministry
:32:06. > :32:08.is investigating why at least one of its diplomats stationed in Cuba
:32:09. > :32:11.has needed treatment Yesterday it emerged American
:32:12. > :32:14.diplomats in Havana have experienced Media reports suggest Cuban agents
:32:15. > :32:21.may have used a sonic device that Havana denies the allegation,
:32:22. > :32:26.but the US has expelled two Cuban diplomats from Washington DC
:32:27. > :32:31.in retaliation. American singer Taylor Swift
:32:32. > :32:34.has told a US court that she was sexually assaulted
:32:35. > :32:37.by a radio DJ four years ago, Yesterday the singer took
:32:38. > :32:41.the stand in the trial, which began in Denver
:32:42. > :32:46.earlier this week. The 27-year-old, who is suing DJ
:32:47. > :32:49.David Mueller over the incident, told the court he had
:32:50. > :32:52.grabbed her as she met fans ahead And coming up here
:32:53. > :33:16.on Breakfast this morning... 132 balloons have gathered and
:33:17. > :33:19.shooting off very fast. Inflating in a matter of seconds and tearing into
:33:20. > :33:21.the sky. Some incredible inflation.
:33:22. > :33:23.It was heavier than 10 adult African elephants and longer
:33:24. > :33:30.Could this dinosaur be the biggest creature ever
:33:31. > :33:35.And after 9, from winning elections to mapping our personalities,
:33:36. > :33:37.could Silicon Valley's promise to build a better world
:33:38. > :33:53.There were some shocks last night at the world athletics Championships.
:33:54. > :33:56.Jess is that the stadium. The sun is shining, morning session starting,
:33:57. > :34:03.not long now? Yes, final preparations getting on underway.
:34:04. > :34:08.One thing we are excited about is Dina Asher-Smith. She was at the
:34:09. > :34:12.London 2012 Olympics and here she is five years later, bracing against
:34:13. > :34:16.some of the world's best. She had a tough season and broke her foot in
:34:17. > :34:21.February but has been impressing in these championships. Once again, in
:34:22. > :34:24.the semifinals last night, she dazzled us again. She finished
:34:25. > :34:28.second in that semifinal and went through to deny's final as an
:34:29. > :34:29.automatic qualifier. She is the only British woman to be in that
:34:30. > :34:38.showpiece. I completely broke my foot, which
:34:39. > :34:43.was not great, I had had surgery to put two screws in there and spend
:34:44. > :34:46.six weeks putting no weight on it and gradually putting weight on it
:34:47. > :34:50.over the next six weeks. Three months I was completely out of
:34:51. > :34:55.pretty much walking. Then I learned to walk and here I am! So it wasn't
:34:56. > :35:02.that bad. I'm joking, I wouldn't recommend it, it was no fun!
:35:03. > :35:07.And also in action was Isaac Makwala. No fairy tale ending for
:35:08. > :35:12.him. He could only manage sixth place. You will remember Isaac
:35:13. > :35:16.Makwala was. Missed the final of the 400 metres because of illness and
:35:17. > :35:19.had to run a time trial just to get through in the 200. Having made the
:35:20. > :35:28.final he was in contention around the bend but couldn't hang on.
:35:29. > :35:32.Turkey won the race. Mitchell Blake from Britain finished fourth.
:35:33. > :35:38.Makwala blamed his performance on having had to run two braces the day
:35:39. > :35:43.before. Laura Muir qualified for the final of the 5000 metres, one of the
:35:44. > :35:44.fastest losers in her semifinal, after finishing fourth in the 1500
:35:45. > :35:53.metres. Katarina Johnson-Thompson has gone
:35:54. > :35:55.some way to making up for her disappointing performance
:35:56. > :35:57.in the heptathlon, she made the final of
:35:58. > :35:59.the individual high jump. Where she will be joined
:36:00. > :36:02.by Morgan Lake who also cleared Let's have a quick look
:36:03. > :36:07.at what's been going on away And the Premier League returns
:36:08. > :36:10.tonight with Arsenal playing Arsenal haven't won their opening
:36:11. > :36:17.game since 2014, and manager Arsene Wenger knows they need
:36:18. > :36:27.to change that. The preparation of
:36:28. > :36:35.the squad looks good. We need to transform the quality
:36:36. > :36:38.of the preparation into points. What matters is the next game
:36:39. > :36:42.and winning it and starting in a strong way, which we
:36:43. > :36:45.did not do last year. That is what we want
:36:46. > :36:51.to achieve this year. In golf, Rory McIlroy said
:36:52. > :36:54."the course played tricky", after his opening round at the USPGA
:36:55. > :36:56.Championship. He dropped three shots in two holes,
:36:57. > :37:00.to finish the day five shots behind leaders Thorbjorn Olesen
:37:01. > :37:08.and Kevin Kisner. Back at the world athletics
:37:09. > :37:15.Championships, I'm delighted to say I am joined by the two time world
:37:16. > :37:21.Champion hurdle Colin Jackson. Thank you for joining us. British athletes
:37:22. > :37:24.in a moment, but Makwala, he has become one of the stars of these
:37:25. > :37:29.championships. It just seemed like it was a step too far for him. What
:37:30. > :37:32.did you make of his performance? I think it was an emotional
:37:33. > :37:35.roller-coaster, from his illness, being out of the event, but back in,
:37:36. > :37:39.running a time trial, it was something he wasn't really prepared
:37:40. > :37:43.for a diesel Championships to do. Of course, when you are physically
:37:44. > :37:48.tired anyway and emotionally drained, you end up with the
:37:49. > :37:52.performance he gave. The crowd appreciated it, gave a massive round
:37:53. > :37:56.of applause, and I hope he leaves with a better taste of athletics in
:37:57. > :38:00.his mouth. The British fans will be looking forward to Dina Asher-Smith.
:38:01. > :38:03.She has impressed in these championships, what have you made of
:38:04. > :38:06.Marcello inspirational. At the beginning of the year we thought her
:38:07. > :38:11.track season was over, we didn't expect to see her here, even in the
:38:12. > :38:15.relay squad. To make the relay tonight is phenomenal. I had she
:38:16. > :38:25.really appreciate what she has done. Making the final is pretty special,
:38:26. > :38:27.especially in her circumstances. Hopefully she will win a medal,
:38:28. > :38:30.British fans will be hoping for that. Last night in the 400 meter,
:38:31. > :38:34.the British team still only with one metal and the target was at least
:38:35. > :38:38.six. How worried should British fans be? I don't think we can make the
:38:39. > :38:43.target of six now, let's be realistic. I think sometimes you
:38:44. > :38:51.need a little luck on your side. We have had four fourth-places, which
:38:52. > :38:54.if you turned a flick could be four bronze medals. At the start of the
:38:55. > :38:57.championship I said we would have many fourth places and fifth places
:38:58. > :39:00.we should celebrate. It is still a developing team and with that in
:39:01. > :39:06.mind is developing and hungry team and we have more promise. Don't give
:39:07. > :39:10.up on them yet. You have won medals at this level, what is the British
:39:11. > :39:14.team missing Mark Gold sometimes you need a little luck as well. You need
:39:15. > :39:19.it all to go right. You need that spark of little luck which will make
:39:20. > :39:22.a difference. We know it is a transition in sport across the whole
:39:23. > :39:26.world but everybody, vertebrae, who is coming through, has performed.
:39:27. > :39:34.When you're not really in the top one or two, that's when it difficult
:39:35. > :39:38.to win those medals. The women's long jump final, any time of a
:39:39. > :39:42.podium finish, what is your prediction? Yes, there is a chance,
:39:43. > :39:46.absolutely. One of the best long jumpers in the world, not just
:39:47. > :39:51.because she has made final, but one of the best, she has potential. You
:39:52. > :39:54.only need one or two of the favourites to kick the plaster scene
:39:55. > :39:58.at the wrong time. What I was saying about luck, you just need that
:39:59. > :40:05.little bit on your side. Again, don't write her off. Colin, thank
:40:06. > :40:09.you for joining us on Breakfast. You heard it there, possibility of two
:40:10. > :40:12.British medals tonight with Dina Asher-Smith in the 200 and Lorraine
:40:13. > :40:16.going in the women's long jump. We have to keep our fingers crossed, I
:40:17. > :40:21.think. Absolutely, thank you, Jessica. Run
:40:22. > :40:22.fast and jump a long way. And win medals! It couldn't be more
:40:23. > :40:25.simple, could it? The British Athletics team are back
:40:26. > :40:27.in action on day eight of the World Athletics
:40:28. > :40:28.Championships. Here are some of the moments
:40:29. > :40:33.you might not want to miss. So our ones to watch starts
:40:34. > :40:46.with Tiffany Porter. A bronze medallist in 2013,the
:40:47. > :40:49.29-year-old wants to make it Robbie Grabarz should breeze
:40:50. > :40:55.through this preliminary stage. He wants to replicate London 2012,
:40:56. > :40:58.when he got bronze. Only one British woman made it
:40:59. > :41:00.through to the final. She hopes to back up her European
:41:01. > :41:09.indoor silver medal in March She competed in 2016 in Rio,
:41:10. > :41:20.when she came sixth. Nick Miller qualified
:41:21. > :41:31.automatically for the final. The silver-medallist made it
:41:32. > :41:33.with his first throw. Dina Asher-Smith made it
:41:34. > :41:35.into the 200 metre final. She broke her foot in February
:41:36. > :41:38.and the prognosis was grim. But her comeback has
:41:39. > :41:42.been incredible. If you want to keep up
:41:43. > :41:49.with the action, tune in to BBC Two And then hop over to
:41:50. > :41:57.BBC One until 10pm. And finally, BBC Two
:41:58. > :42:11.for the last hour of coverage. Could actually sit in all day
:42:12. > :42:13.watching the sport. It has been known before! It is 8:42am.
:42:14. > :42:16.The number of primary school children in England being excluded
:42:17. > :42:18.and sent to specialist schools known as Pupil Referral Units
:42:19. > :42:22.Research by BBC Breakfast has found more than 1,300 young children
:42:23. > :42:26.are now being taught in this way, a rise of 66-percent in five years.
:42:27. > :42:28.Although overall pupil numbers have gone up,
:42:29. > :42:31.that doesn't account for the increase.
:42:32. > :42:40.Breakfast's John Maguire visited a specialist centre in Norfolk.

:42:56. > :43:03.Children in Norfolk come here if they have been excluded
:43:04. > :43:06.or are deemed too challenging to be taught by their original primary.
:43:07. > :43:09.We spoke to some about why they left their old school,
:43:10. > :43:10.and we are protecting their identity.
:43:11. > :43:19.I have been thought a lot about maths.
:43:20. > :43:27.Latest figures show 13,068 are being taught in similar schools
:43:28. > :43:40.in England, an increase of 66% over the last five years,
:43:41. > :43:43.although the number of primary aged children overall has risen.
:43:44. > :43:45.Here at Brooklands they believe one reason is the pressure
:43:46. > :43:51.At the same time they have teachers told, we don't have the money
:43:52. > :44:01.I don't think any head teacher wants to do that.
:44:02. > :44:03.Faced with the culture that we have at the moment,
:44:04. > :44:06.Norfolk County Council says exclusions have dropped,
:44:07. > :44:09.but are still too high, and continue to create pressure
:44:10. > :44:14.It is working with schools to address the issue.
:44:15. > :44:22.This parent is happy with the education and support her
:44:23. > :44:24.son receives at Brooklands, but believes there should have been
:44:25. > :44:27.a better understanding of his condition at his old primary,
:44:28. > :44:29.and a place for him at a special school.
:44:30. > :44:31.He has autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
:44:32. > :44:34.I was upset because he was being classed as a naughty child.
:44:35. > :44:39.When they were restraining him, he would have bruises on his arms
:44:40. > :44:43.Sometimes he would be locked in a room, kicking
:44:44. > :44:48.I felt like every day I was sending my child
:44:49. > :44:54.Some experts believe cuts in the help for families
:44:55. > :44:56.who need extra support is one of the reasons
:44:57. > :44:59.for an increase in the use of Pupil Referral Units.
:45:00. > :45:04.If those support services are not there, either in helping teachers
:45:05. > :45:08.cope with some of those issues that exhibit themselves in the classroom,

:45:30. > :45:31.As a shortstay school, Brooklands is designed to teach
:45:32. > :45:34.children for just two terms, but now has some for up
:45:35. > :45:41.It is highly effective in returning pupils to mainstream or special
:45:42. > :45:44.schools, and here they believe every child deserves a second chance
:45:45. > :46:01.and must be given every chance to succeed.
:46:02. > :46:03.We've been live all morning at the Bristol
:46:04. > :46:19.We have just recorded this very obviously it pleaded up. People are
:46:20. > :46:26.buzzing round -- speeded up. They pop up, and the they go, into the
:46:27. > :46:33.sky. It is quite sudden, they lay there, and then suddenly they go up
:46:34. > :46:39.quickly. That is what happens when a balloon pops up. That is exactly
:46:40. > :46:44.what happens. Lots of noises with the balloons, the fans, the burner
:46:45. > :46:50.and it's a gorgeous morning here at the 39th International Bristol
:46:51. > :46:56.balloon festival and I'm lucky to be joined by the founder of the Fiesta.
:46:57. > :47:05.This is the 39th year of the Fiesta. How much has it changed since you
:47:06. > :47:09.started? We just have to burn a bit to keep the balloon up. It certainly
:47:10. > :47:19.has changed. We started doing this in a pub and decided to run an event
:47:20. > :47:26.and we had about a dozen balloons and there was no showground at that
:47:27. > :47:31.time. I think we had one wagon which served some breakfast. Bristol is
:47:32. > :47:35.really known as the capital of ballooning in the UK. How important
:47:36. > :47:40.is it that we continue to see the Fiesta every year? I think it's very
:47:41. > :47:46.important. We have the biggest balloon factory in Bristol and this
:47:47. > :47:53.is not the world's biggest meeting, but it's one of the biggest. It's
:47:54. > :47:56.quite a interesting activity. Yes, great conditions this morning. Ideal
:47:57. > :48:01.ballooning weather? A bit too breezy? Light winds is what we need.
:48:02. > :48:07.Not too much. It's been perfect this morning and we have seen all the
:48:08. > :48:13.balloons taking off, a or so of them. A beautiful morning. -- 150 or
:48:14. > :48:17.so. Thanks for joining us. It is a gorgeous morning, and you might hear
:48:18. > :48:21.the burner going off from time to time but across the rest of the UK
:48:22. > :48:27.it's mostly a fine start for many of us across England and Wales that
:48:28. > :48:32.there will be some rain at times, so tranquil, Serena, but elsewhere the
:48:33. > :48:36.weather front will move in from west to east across the country. There
:48:37. > :48:39.will be spells of rain at times and some brisk winds around as well.
:48:40. > :48:45.This morning it is a beautiful morning across much of England and
:48:46. > :48:47.Wales and the south and east there will be more cloud drifting around
:48:48. > :48:53.here and there and temperatures in the mid teens. As we had further
:48:54. > :48:59.north and through the Midlands and in parts of England, some sunshine
:49:00. > :49:03.through the course of the morning but there will be rain for the likes
:49:04. > :49:10.of Cumbria and pushing into Scotland. A bit of brightness, and

:49:15. > :49:19.seek cloud and ad breaks of rain. Pushing across the West of Wales,
:49:20. > :49:24.but in Central and East Wales we will start dry with blue skies. Rain
:49:25. > :49:26.pushing into parts of the Isles of Scilly, but elsewhere in the
:49:27. > :49:31.south-west it's a dry morning to come. As we move through the course
:49:32. > :49:37.of the day the front across North and west will shift further east,
:49:38. > :49:42.but for the far south-east of England you will likely stay dry for
:49:43. > :49:45.a good part of the day with temperatures at 22 degrees,
:49:46. > :49:51.elsewhere, 17 or 19 Celsius but quite breezy and windy at times with
:49:52. > :49:55.the rain around as well. Into the evening hours, we will see the front
:49:56. > :49:58.moving across the south-east and East Anglia as well. That will be
:49:59. > :50:02.followed by clearer spells and scattered showers heading in from
:50:03. > :50:05.the North West. Overnight most of the showers will die away and the
:50:06. > :50:10.winds will ease away as well with temperatures around 13 up to 15
:50:11. > :50:15.degrees. Through the courts on Saturday we are set to see a view
:50:16. > :50:18.showers across parts of northern England, Wales, and into Scotland,
:50:19. > :50:24.but most of us should avoid them. And we will see the temperatures by
:50:25. > :50:29.Saturday afternoon, in the sunny spells, between 16 or 22 degrees, so
:50:30. > :50:33.fairly decent conditions. The high pressure should stay with us until
:50:34. > :50:37.the second part of the weekend, so through Saturday and overnight and
:50:38. > :50:41.into Sunday, fairly fine weather on the cards and are mostly dry day to
:50:42. > :50:45.come on Sunday with sunshine, although we could catch the odd
:50:46. > :50:50.shower here and there. But lighter winds and in the sunny spells we
:50:51. > :50:54.will see the temperatures up to 16 or 22 degrees. Some fine weather to
:50:55. > :50:58.look forward to, and that is it from here at the Bristol balloon Fiesta.
:50:59. > :51:04.As more air is pumped into the balloon, it has been marvellous
:51:05. > :51:08.talking and seeing all the balloons. That is the only one near the
:51:09. > :51:11.ground. The rest are taken off, I think. Sarah, thank you very much.
:51:12. > :51:14.It's been just over a month since six-year-old Bradley Lowery
:51:15. > :51:19.died after battling a rare form of cancer.
:51:20. > :51:22.The Sunderland fan won a legion of supporters across the country,
:51:23. > :51:25.Now, in his first interview since Bradley's death,
:51:26. > :51:29.Jermain told the BBC how he's been inspired by his "best mate".
:51:30. > :51:35.They were best friends and it was a friendship
:51:36. > :51:38.which captured the hearts of everyone.
:51:39. > :51:40.I have a nice picture in the house of me and Bradley
:51:41. > :52:02.He loved me, I loved him and after seeing his eyes,
:52:03. > :52:11.it was genuine because he was a child.
:52:12. > :52:15.There was nothing I could give him apart from just being a friend.
:52:16. > :52:19.Even towards the end, when he was really struggling
:52:20. > :52:21.and he couldn't really move, I would walk into the room
:52:22. > :52:26.and he would just jump up and his mum said,
:52:27. > :52:32."He hasn't moved all day," so yeah, it was a special feeling.
:52:33. > :52:34.The emotion is still raw but the impact the little boy has
:52:35. > :52:40.The Bournemouth striker says it is a gift and he will
:52:41. > :52:49.I always wake up thinking, you know, if you don't feel well,
:52:50. > :52:54.Because I can see little kids suffer like that and still fight,
:52:55. > :53:00.to me, there is no bigger motivation.
:53:01. > :53:10.You walked out with him so many times.
:53:11. > :53:18.Risley England the moment the best? -- was the England moment the best?
:53:19. > :53:31.I came down the tunnel, gave him a cuddle.
:53:32. > :53:35.For him to do that, that was special.
:53:36. > :53:37.And we walked out, standing there, singing the national anthem.
:53:38. > :53:40.Being involved in the squad and actually playing, and scoring...
:53:41. > :53:44.For me, it's one of the best moments of my career.
:53:45. > :53:46.Jermain Defoe was talking to Juliette Ferrington and you can
:53:47. > :53:48.see the whole of that interview on Football Focus,
:53:49. > :53:57.We've been talking about body image anxiety this morning.
:53:58. > :54:01.Apparently there's lots of it around in the summer as people
:54:02. > :54:04.post their holiday selfies from the beach.
:54:05. > :54:07.Earlier this week, former Vogue editor
:54:08. > :54:11.Alexandra Shulman posted one selfie that sparked lots of debate
:54:12. > :54:13.as to whether we should edit our pics, or leave them
:54:14. > :54:21.Now a Parliamentary Group on Body Image, has told Breakfast
:54:22. > :54:24.it is particularly concerned about 'body image anxiety' amongst young
:54:25. > :54:30.Joining us now is Natasha Devon, a writer and body image campaigner
:54:31. > :54:33.and Kady McDermott a reality TV star who has almost 1 million
:54:34. > :54:46.Good morning to you both. The reason we said how many Instagram followers
:54:47. > :54:50.you have, and you post pictures of yourself on the social media -based
:54:51. > :54:54.tool, and people look to you to either get ideas or for inspiration
:54:55. > :54:59.or in aspirational terms. We will show some of your pictures that are
:55:00. > :55:06.there at the moment. The question is, do you edit them? Do you feel to
:55:07. > :55:13.them? And if so, why? My work is through social media that is how I
:55:14. > :55:18.do my business, but I would be lying if I said I didn't put a filter on.
:55:19. > :55:27.I think we all like a filter that smooths you out. Newcombe play with
:55:28. > :55:32.the brightness and contrast. But I don't edit features or my body. You
:55:33. > :55:40.don't slim your waist or a accentuate your breasts or anything
:55:41. > :55:43.like that? No. Just a filter. Is there a real distinction between
:55:44. > :55:49.filtering and editing, because if you are filtering, it is the same
:55:50. > :55:52.thing? It is all on a spectrum. Things like angles and lighting can
:55:53. > :56:00.make a dramatic difference to the way you look, but when you get into
:56:01. > :56:02.the kind of territory that Kady is talking about, changing your
:56:03. > :56:06.physical features, that makes it more dramatic. It's important to
:56:07. > :56:11.bear in mind, because we are putting a lot of focus on Kady, and you are
:56:12. > :56:15.just one person, a doctor who is an expert in this field talks about how
:56:16. > :56:20.the impact of it is cumulative, how we are all a part of it and we all
:56:21. > :56:23.have a social responsibility. Young people, girls in particular, but
:56:24. > :56:26.children of all genders are growing up in a culture where they get the
:56:27. > :56:29.message that have a look is the most important thing about them but
:56:30. > :56:36.physical perfection is a necessity and that they are going to fail and
:56:37. > :56:39.that has an impact on all kinds of areas of their life, not just when
:56:40. > :56:41.they look in the mirror. We have had response from the viewers.
:56:42. > :56:46.No wrinkles and all, I post pictures as I am.
:56:47. > :56:53.Why can't women celebrate themselves as they are?"
:56:54. > :57:05.Kady, what do you think? If people want to post photos being natural, I
:57:06. > :57:08.was at 1am on snap chat and I'm comfortable both ways. But if
:57:09. > :57:12.someone makes them self feel better putting a filter on, if they feel
:57:13. > :57:15.more confident, why shouldn't they? Is the counterargument is the reason
:57:16. > :57:20.they need to make themselves feel better is because they look at
:57:21. > :57:24.people who look amazing and perhaps a bit unreal online, so they think
:57:25. > :57:29.they have to live up to that perfection? I think this is a
:57:30. > :57:34.conversation about what we value as a culture and society, but the most
:57:35. > :57:38.recent girl guide attitude survey found girls as young as five
:57:39. > :57:42.believed that society values them more on how they look than their
:57:43. > :57:47.achievements and I think that is a scary statistic. We need to start
:57:48. > :57:50.celebrating people what they do and say rather than more superficial
:57:51. > :57:54.concerns. It is fine to be proud of how you look and it's fine to use
:57:55. > :57:57.fitness, fashion and beauty for self-expression but it should not
:57:58. > :58:03.dictate how we are perceived. Years the equivalent, before social media
:58:04. > :58:10.and before you had digital cameras, you would self select pictures, and
:58:11. > :58:14.this was outdated, but pictures you put on your mantelpiece. You would
:58:15. > :58:21.pick the ones you liked most. And this is kind of the same thing and
:58:22. > :58:27.you would naturally choose pictures that reflects you the best. It is
:58:28. > :58:32.always about lighting and style as well. When I promote something on my
:58:33. > :58:42.social media or take a photo, I will take it from this site because I
:58:43. > :58:47.think it is my better side. It's so weird that you say that, because I
:58:48. > :58:53.am trying to angle it. Can you see any difference? People don't have to
:58:54. > :58:59.edit things. I don't believe in editing things. People ask if I edit
:59:00. > :59:03.my eyes? I have people accuse me of all sorts and I've had comments like
:59:04. > :59:10.that today, but it is about your angling and stuff. What is your best
:59:11. > :59:18.side? Turnaround that way, keep going, keep going. You want the back
:59:19. > :59:19.of my head? That one there. We have to show some selfies that people
:59:20. > :59:20.sent in. Georgie sent this selfie,
:59:21. > :59:23.which she hasn't done anything too, but she thinks it is up
:59:24. > :59:25.to the person what they want And James snapped this
:59:26. > :59:29.as he watched us - saying we should be comfortable
:59:30. > :59:44.with how we look without Going back to what you said about it
:59:45. > :59:49.being human nature, yes it is, but we need to ask if social media
:59:50. > :59:53.appeals to the better aspects of us. My favourite quote about social
:59:54. > :59:57.media is it allows you to compare your reality with others highlights
:59:58. > :00:03.reel. We will leave it on that thought, thank you very much.
:00:04. > :00:09.From hailing a minicab to sharing images and news stories with French
:00:10. > :00:12.club -- with friends, the modern world is about staying connected,
:00:13. > :00:14.but could the technology that allows us to do this have more sinister
:00:15. > :00:18.effect on our lives? A new documentary series questions
:00:19. > :00:20.the power Silicon Valley - home to some of the world's largest
:00:21. > :00:23.tech giants such as Facebook, We'll speak to the show's presenter,
:00:24. > :00:26.journalist Jamie Bartlett, in a moment but first let's take
:00:27. > :00:34.a look. Our time is the holy grail of
:00:35. > :00:43.Silicon Valley. Here's what my life looks like on a typical day. Can I
:00:44. > :00:49.have a flat white please? Like more and more of us, my phone
:00:50. > :00:54.is my gateway to the online world. It's how I check my social media
:00:55. > :00:56.accounts. An average Facebook users spend 15 minutes every day on the
:00:57. > :01:07.site. The longer we spend connected, the
:01:08. > :01:10.more silicon Valley can learn about us. And the more targeted and
:01:11. > :01:36.effective their advertising can be. So apparently today I have checked
:01:37. > :01:41.my phone 117 times. And I've been on this phone for nearly five and a
:01:42. > :01:42.half hours. I mean, that's a lot of hours!
:01:43. > :01:51.Good morning. Did you surprise yourself about how much time, how
:01:52. > :01:56.much time you spend on your phone, on social media? I did when I got
:01:57. > :02:01.the number and the amount of hours, it just seems like so much but when
:02:02. > :02:05.I thought about it and my typical day and how often I pull my phone
:02:06. > :02:11.out of my pocket and jacket without even thinking, I thought, you know
:02:12. > :02:15.what, that's about right. It's the modern epidemic, constantly checking
:02:16. > :02:19.all the time. A lot of people say, what's the problem? You have sought
:02:20. > :02:26.to follow the lines back to the big bosses at Silicon Valley and if it
:02:27. > :02:31.is healthy, what they are up to? At some -- in some senses the thing,
:02:32. > :02:35.what's wrong with it? We check it for information, check it for
:02:36. > :02:40.information, share our photos and stories but all the time we are
:02:41. > :02:44.using that we create a product for these companies. The model for
:02:45. > :02:50.Silicon Valley estate, the stuff we are sharing. Even if you don't use
:02:51. > :02:54.their products? Facebook, Snapchat, Uber, even if you don't use those,
:02:55. > :03:01.they can still influence, your usage can still be used? Yes, sometimes.
:03:02. > :03:06.It's a little complicated when you get into the long grass of how the
:03:07. > :03:11.data economy actually works. For example, when you are inside some of
:03:12. > :03:15.these apps using them but reading the story from another source, they
:03:16. > :03:19.can track you around the Internet and work out what you're doing off
:03:20. > :03:22.their sites as well. The key thing is, all that stuff we are producing
:03:23. > :03:27.is making those companies money, because they are using that data to
:03:28. > :03:33.target with adverts. There is a sinister side to your documentary, a
:03:34. > :03:38.little sinister look at these companies work. You spoke to a
:03:39. > :03:43.former Facebook employee. We have a sound bite of him saying how data is
:03:44. > :03:49.used by the site. Tell me a bit about your tie that
:03:50. > :03:55.Facebook. It was interesting, I was a product manager at advert
:03:56. > :04:01.targeting, seeing how you use your data. If you browse the Internet or
:04:02. > :04:09.by staff, you see ads related to that in Facebook, I created that.
:04:10. > :04:17.Facebook offers advertisers ways to target users specifically.
:04:18. > :04:21.Some examples of what is data for Facebook which is money, things you
:04:22. > :04:27.like, what few shared, do you happen to know on Facebook, or where you
:04:28. > :04:32.have used it, on what devices. In the case of Amazon, it's what you
:04:33. > :04:36.purchase and Google what you search for. At the top of the list of the
:04:37. > :04:40.scale of conspiracy theorists who think all these big bad companies
:04:41. > :04:47.are owning your soul gradually, to those that don't care, where did you
:04:48. > :04:52.end up, after your investigations? I isolated, I think, between it. I can
:04:53. > :04:54.see the great benefits of these platforms. The reason they have
:04:55. > :04:58.taken over the world is they offer so much to us. I think it is really
:04:59. > :05:04.important to bear in mind how the business model works. The fact this
:05:05. > :05:07.data is very valuable to them and they are becoming enormously
:05:08. > :05:12.important and powerful companies, not just in advertising but in
:05:13. > :05:15.politics, in the future of our economies and societies. These are
:05:16. > :05:19.some of the biggest companies the world has ever seen. And we haven't
:05:20. > :05:24.touched upon artificial intelligence and how these people involved in
:05:25. > :05:30.silicon Valley, where they see that going and influencing our lives.
:05:31. > :05:35.Exactly. Episode one of this series, there are two episodes, episode one,
:05:36. > :05:40.out last Sunday, is all about artificial intelligence, and where
:05:41. > :05:43.the terrifying in some ways but also exciting growth of artificial
:05:44. > :05:48.intelligence, for example machines being able to do things as well as
:05:49. > :05:52.humans can come is taking us. Silicon Valley, this is the big
:05:53. > :05:54.thing now. What is going to happen to our economy and society of
:05:55. > :05:59.machines can start doing things better than humans? I'm curious,
:06:00. > :06:02.after everything you have seen and learned after what you've looked at,
:06:03. > :06:06.do you use these things differently question mark in your own usage, do
:06:07. > :06:13.you think, I'm not doing that because they said that? No. You
:06:14. > :06:17.carry on anyway? That's the thing about these platforms, they are so
:06:18. > :06:22.addictive, useful and convenient. I use all of these platforms because
:06:23. > :06:26.they offer an incredible product, an incredible service to me. But yes...
:06:27. > :06:31.I think after you watch this series you can at least think, is this the
:06:32. > :06:34.right thing for me to be doing? Might not change your habits but at
:06:35. > :06:36.least you are aware of them. Jamie, thank you.
:06:37. > :06:39.The second episode of 'Secrets of Silicon Valley' is on BBC Two
:06:40. > :06:46.on Sunday at 8pm, and you can catch the first episode on BBC iPlayer.
:06:47. > :08:27.In a moment, finding out about the largest creature ever to have stuff
:08:28. > :08:29.In a moment, finding out about the top temperature of 22. That is it
:08:30. > :08:36.for now, I'm back at 1:30pm for the lunchtime news.
:08:37. > :08:41.Scientists examining the remains of six dinosaurs found in a quarry
:08:42. > :08:43.in Argentina say they could well be the biggest creatures
:08:44. > :08:47.The previously unknown species is called the Patagotitan
:08:48. > :08:52.mayorum and lived around 100-million years ago.
:08:53. > :08:55.It's thought they measured more than 35-metres head to tail -
:08:56. > :09:07.And they weighed in at more than 62-tonnes -
:09:08. > :09:09.that's heavier than The Space Shuttle or the combined
:09:10. > :09:13.Now researchers say the find has led them to form new theories
:09:14. > :09:15.about how dinosaurs interacted with each other.
:09:16. > :09:17.Here to explain is Professor William Sellers from
:09:18. > :09:27.Good morning. How excited are you buy these various discoveries? It's
:09:28. > :09:32.always amazing to find a new dinosaur and this is a monster, a
:09:33. > :09:36.really cute animal. It is quite funny because palaeontologists like
:09:37. > :09:39.fishermen, always claiming to have the biggest. So it's no surprise
:09:40. > :09:47.they are claiming it's larger than the others and is really huge.
:09:48. > :09:52.Bigger than the brontosaurus? Yes, those are the dinosaurs from the
:09:53. > :09:56.Jurassic got up to about 25 times. These are a little bit later and you
:09:57. > :10:01.get them in South America and they are much, much bigger, double the
:10:02. > :10:08.size, absolutely huge. These ones that were found, they were
:10:09. > :10:13.pubescent? Yes. How do you tell? It is very tricky to do, you slice the
:10:14. > :10:17.bones and look at them under a microscope, because using
:10:18. > :10:20.microscopic changes in the way the cells in the bones are arranged.
:10:21. > :10:24.It's difficult to tell if you have a juvenile dinosaur but these were
:10:25. > :10:29.still growing and 65 tonnes. We're seeing some of the excavation
:10:30. > :10:34.images. The previous biggest was also in Argentina? Why were the big
:10:35. > :10:39.dinosaurs in Argentina? A really good question and very curious. What
:10:40. > :10:44.happens, before this we have lots of big dinosaurs in North America. In
:10:45. > :10:47.this period, all the big dinosaurs seem to have moved to South America
:10:48. > :10:51.and got bigger. We don't actually know why. Obviously there was
:10:52. > :10:53.something about the ecology, maybe the availability of food that
:10:54. > :11:01.allowed them to grow to enormous sizes. So what does this find tell
:11:02. > :11:07.us about dinosaurs? You said these are after the brontosaurus,
:11:08. > :11:12.Tyrannosaurus rex? The T Rex is a little later, about 65 million, but
:11:13. > :11:18.a different part of the world. I'm sorry at... Slightly distracted by
:11:19. > :11:22.this nodding dinosaur! Something tells me in real life he
:11:23. > :11:27.didn't move like that. Can we confirm the new one, the
:11:28. > :11:32.Patagotitan mayorum didn't nod his head like this? One of the things
:11:33. > :11:37.people argue about is how they moved then next because the old idea was
:11:38. > :11:40.they had a long neck so they could eat things higher from the tree but
:11:41. > :11:44.people nowadays think maybe they moved their heads side to side like
:11:45. > :11:48.a sort of lawn mower and they could graze over a much larger areas. So
:11:49. > :11:52.it is one of those big debates, how these things actually moved around.
:11:53. > :11:57.How could it have eaten enough food to keep going? They were looking at
:11:58. > :12:01.how much food these things eight. This thing would eat about a cubic
:12:02. > :12:06.metre or so of vegetation. Is that all? The thing about animals,
:12:07. > :12:10.there's a scaling rule. If you are a tiny animal you have to eat your
