:00:09. > :00:13.Hello, this is Breakfast with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin.

:00:14. > :00:18.Britain's largest aircraft carrier sails into port for the first time.

:00:19. > :00:25.HMS Queen Elizabeth is the most advanced warship ever built

:00:26. > :00:28.in the UK - but delayed and over-budget, and still has no

:00:29. > :00:36.We'll be live in Portsmouth all morning as Big Lizzie sails

:00:37. > :00:51.Good morning, it's Wednesday 16 August.

:00:52. > :00:54.Also this morning, no hard border after Brexit.

:00:55. > :00:57.Ministers say there won't be a return to customs posts

:00:58. > :01:00.between the UK and Ireland - but critics say the plans lack

:01:01. > :01:07.A hospital trust being investigated over the deaths of 7 newborns

:01:08. > :01:14.is told its maternity services still aren't good enough.

:01:15. > :01:22.It is day three of our series on family businesses. I am looking at

:01:23. > :01:24.the challenges you might face when you go into business with your

:01:25. > :01:25.family. In sport,

:01:26. > :01:37.there's a dream European debut for Liverpool's teenage

:01:38. > :01:39.defender Trent Alexander Boult, as this free kick for his boyhood

:01:40. > :01:43.club helps put his side on the brink of qualifying for the group stage

:01:44. > :01:46.of the Champions League. Pretty lipstick, dresses, love

:01:47. > :01:52.hearts. We'll meet the doctor who says

:01:53. > :01:54.stripping away gender stereotypes can change the way

:01:55. > :02:02.our children think. Good morning. Wet and windy in the

:02:03. > :02:06.west. That weather slowly moving east through the course of the day.

:02:07. > :02:12.In central, southern and eastern England, it should stay dry with

:02:13. > :02:15.some pleasant spells and stay dry in the sunshine. More in 15 minutes.

:02:16. > :02:20.The largest warship ever built for the Royal Navy will arrive

:02:21. > :02:23.at its new home in Portsmouth for the first time this morning.

:02:24. > :02:26.HMS Queen Elizabeth cost three billion pounds and weighs

:02:27. > :02:28.65,000 tonnes but will be without aircraft until flying trials

:02:29. > :02:37.Our South of England correspondent Duncan Kennedy reports.

:02:38. > :02:46.There has never been a Royal Navy vessel like it. 65,000 tons, the

:02:47. > :02:49.length of three football pitches and eventually, and firepower to place

:02:50. > :02:55.off among the worldmaritime heavyweight. First conceived nearly

:02:56. > :03:01.20 years ago, it has taken 10,000 people aged years to actually

:03:02. > :03:05.construct the HMS Queen Elizabeth. As high as Nelson 's Kollam, it is a

:03:06. > :03:16.vessel that has launched a thousand statistics. Enough space to park

:03:17. > :03:21.1200 minis, of incapacity to bake 1000 loaves per day. The basic crew

:03:22. > :03:28.will be 670 strong, much less than previous carriers. All living decks

:03:29. > :03:33.include Wi-Fi, access to cinema and an operating theatre. Critics say

:03:34. > :03:38.the carrier has cost more than ?3 billion and doesn't have a clearly

:03:39. > :03:43.defined role. The government says it will be a demonstration of British

:03:44. > :03:50.power around the world. The carrier will be Britain's biggest ever

:03:51. > :03:54.floating airfields. A four and a half acre deck, from where two

:03:55. > :04:01.fighter jets can be launched. Each one cost around ?100 million. Queen

:04:02. > :04:05.Elizabeth already has a sibling ship in the making, in the form of the

:04:06. > :04:11.Prince of Wales. It is due to be handed over in 2019. Lots more on

:04:12. > :04:13.that this morning. Duncan joins us

:04:14. > :04:32.from Portsmouth now. A very important day for Britain's

:04:33. > :04:36.Armed Forces. The ship has been carrying out trials for the last

:04:37. > :04:41.month, testing out propulsion is in sewer systems. The families have not

:04:42. > :04:46.seen the loved ones for that time. They have been queueing since five

:04:47. > :04:50.a.m.. The families and small children were waiting to come

:04:51. > :04:57.inside. They are very excited today. As we touched on in that package, it

:04:58. > :05:01.is a bit controversial. The costs of this carrier, combined with the

:05:02. > :05:05.sister ship, the Prince of Wales, currently in production. More than

:05:06. > :05:09.?6 billion in total. Some people have questioned what we are going to

:05:10. > :05:14.do with these carriers, what their role is for a nation like Britain to

:05:15. > :05:17.have so much firepower. As far as the Navy and government are

:05:18. > :05:22.concerned, they say it is about protecting British influence around

:05:23. > :05:27.the world. They say we need these ships in these tense times. Others

:05:28. > :05:31.say this is perhaps in the overstretch for Britain. As far as

:05:32. > :05:37.the Navy is concerned, it is a very important day to get imports carried

:05:38. > :05:43.safely and to get us back into business. If you see how this

:05:44. > :05:47.morning, let us know. We are going to be covering this a lot this

:05:48. > :05:54.morning. It will be shipped Astec. She will be seen in the harbour at

:05:55. > :06:05.just after seven o'clock. There will be a fly past at either seven or 9am

:06:06. > :06:14.or 7:14 a.m.. -- 7:09am. I have only got one ship fact, I won't waste it

:06:15. > :06:20.yet. We also will be looking at one of those stealth jets, that will

:06:21. > :06:25.eventually be on that boat. We will also be talking to the chief of

:06:26. > :06:28.Fleet support later in the programme. Looks like a stunning day

:06:29. > :06:29.for it. We will be live in Portsmouth

:06:30. > :06:31.all morning following Avoiding any physical posts or check

:06:32. > :06:35.points on the Irish border is going to be the number one

:06:36. > :06:38.priority in Brexit negotiations, A paper setting out Britain's

:06:39. > :06:41.negotiating position is being published today

:06:42. > :06:44.and will firmly reject what it calls Our Ireland correspondent

:06:45. > :06:48.Chris Page is in Belfast. Chris, Northern Ireland is one

:06:49. > :06:51.of the most difficult Brexit issues. Does this paper resolve

:06:52. > :07:06.some of the problems? It sets out what the government are

:07:07. > :07:13.hoping to achieve. Crossing the Irish border, which will be the only

:07:14. > :07:19.border still in place. No barrier tax and no customs post. That to

:07:20. > :07:24.say, they want to keep it that way. The top priority will be to avoid

:07:25. > :07:28.bringing in any physical structure on the last border. How they are

:07:29. > :07:33.going to do this in a situation where the UK is outside the EU and

:07:34. > :07:37.outside the single market and the European customs union, they have

:07:38. > :07:42.basically set out to ideas. They have also suggested there could be a

:07:43. > :07:46.new Customs partnership, the same arrangements in Paris between the UK

:07:47. > :07:51.and the EU, meaning things can continue as they are at the moment,

:07:52. > :07:55.but alternatively say there could be a highly streamlined border, a

:07:56. > :08:00.technological solution where goods are electronically monitored. It is

:08:01. > :08:01.going to be a very complicated negotiating process.

:08:02. > :08:06.A hospital trust at the centre of an inquiry into a number

:08:07. > :08:09.of avoidable deaths among newborn babies has been criticised

:08:10. > :08:11.for failing to learn the lessons of past mistakes.

:08:12. > :08:13.A report by the NHS standards watchdog,

:08:14. > :08:15.the Care Quality Commission, found that safety still needs

:08:16. > :08:18.to improve in maternity services at the Shrewsbury

:08:19. > :08:22.Our health correspondent Dominic Hughes reports.

:08:23. > :08:30.For years, Richard Stanton and Rhiannon Davies have

:08:31. > :08:32.been campaigning to save maternity services following the avoidable

:08:33. > :08:42.death of their first daughter, Kate, just hours after birth.

:08:43. > :08:44.A review of their case found the Trust had

:08:45. > :08:48.failed to investigate Kate's death properly and now a new report finds

:08:49. > :08:50.eight years on, the Shrewsbury and Telford Trust is failing

:08:51. > :08:54.It is still failing on the basics to this day.

:08:55. > :08:58.From our point of view, it makes you want to bang your head

:08:59. > :09:11.An inspection by the hospital regulator found safety in maternity

:09:12. > :09:14.services needs improvement and patients are still not receiving

:09:15. > :09:20.We have seen some improvements in some areas

:09:21. > :09:23.but some ongoing areas such as maternity, which is not

:09:24. > :09:26.what we would expect, and we've made it very

:09:27. > :09:29.clear to the Trust that we need to see these improvements made

:09:30. > :09:34.in a much more robust manner and in a timely way.

:09:35. > :09:37.The Trust says serious incidents are being reported and investigated

:09:38. > :09:40.and a new management team is working hard to bring about improvements

:09:41. > :09:43.but a wider NHS investigation into a cluster of

:09:44. > :09:46.deaths among newborn babies at the trust is under way and those

:09:47. > :09:48.parents who lost children are asking why

:09:49. > :09:50.questions are still being raised about safety at the trust.

:09:51. > :10:04.Donald Trump has faced renewed criticism from within his own

:10:05. > :10:07.Republican party by again blaming both sides involved in the clashes

:10:08. > :10:11.The US President appeared to distance himself from his own

:10:12. > :10:13.statement a day earlier in which he condemned

:10:14. > :10:23.Instead, he said a far right rally contained many fine people.

:10:24. > :10:30.You had a group on one side that was bad, and you had a group on the

:10:31. > :10:34.other side that was also very violent. And nobody wants to say

:10:35. > :10:38.that. I'll say it right now. You had a grip on the other side that came

:10:39. > :10:43.charging in without a permit, and they were very, very violent. --

:10:44. > :10:48.A tweet from Donald Trump's predecessor posted after the events

:10:49. > :10:51.in Virginia has become the most-liked Tweet ever.

:10:52. > :10:54.Barack Obama posted this picture with the caption,

:10:55. > :10:57."No one is born hating another person because of his

:10:58. > :11:01.skin or his background or his religion."

:11:02. > :11:08.It's had almost three million likes and one million retweets.

:11:09. > :11:17.There is a new train disruption after yesterday's delay at Waterloo.

:11:18. > :11:22.They have advised thousands of customers not to use services into

:11:23. > :11:29.London. Good morning to our correspondent at the station. Is

:11:30. > :11:34.there any end in sight? Passengers will be hoping that there will be.

:11:35. > :11:37.We are here at Vauxhall station because this is where the large

:11:38. > :11:42.majority of passengers are being funnelled through. Yesterday there

:11:43. > :11:47.was a low speed collision and derailment, and also a points

:11:48. > :11:51.failure. There were already ten platforms closed earlier this month

:11:52. > :11:58.due to large-scale engineering works. The derailment caused three

:11:59. > :12:03.more platforms to be closed. Therefore, loads of passengers are

:12:04. > :12:05.having to come through here to get through to their various

:12:06. > :12:13.destinations. They are being asked to avoid Waterloo and hopefully, the

:12:14. > :12:17.last three platforms that were closed yesterday should be opened

:12:18. > :12:22.later on today. That has not been confirmed, but we are hoping.

:12:23. > :12:32.Passengers are being advised to stagger their journeys this morning.

:12:33. > :12:50.Are you all right, would you like some water? COUGHING. Carry on.

:12:51. > :12:53.James Bond will return - and now we know so will Daniel

:12:54. > :12:57.The actor confirmed he will reprise the role of 007 on the Late Show

:12:58. > :12:59.in America, ending months of speculation.

:13:00. > :13:02.He first appeared on our screens as Britain's most famous spy

:13:03. > :13:07.He did however, say that his fifth Bond movie would definitely

:13:08. > :13:16.To be fair, he has said that the fall. He seemed quite definitive

:13:17. > :13:18.this time -- before. She's act in the game. Good morning, John. We're

:13:19. > :13:31.talking about Liverpool -- back. What a night for the 18 year

:13:32. > :13:34.old Trent Alexander-Arnold. His manager having seen him take

:13:35. > :13:39.them in training urged him to take this one, and it paid off,

:13:40. > :13:43.this goal setting them on their way to a 2-1 win over Hoffenheim

:13:44. > :13:46.in the first leg, and one foot in the Champions

:13:47. > :13:51.League group stage. Celtic play Kazakhstan champions

:13:52. > :14:11.Astana in the first leg of their qualifying play-off

:14:12. > :14:13.tie in Glasgow tonight. Celtic are unbeaten in 50 games

:14:14. > :14:16.domestically and knocked Astana out of the Champions League third

:14:17. > :14:18.qualifying round last season. Johanna Konta's into the third

:14:19. > :14:22.round of the Cincinatti Open. The British number one beat

:14:23. > :14:25.Kiki Bertens of the Netherlands The former world number one

:14:26. > :14:37.Maria Sharapova has been awarded a wildcard for the main

:14:38. > :14:40.draw of the US Open - the last tennis

:14:41. > :14:42.grand slam of the year. The Russian returned from a doping

:14:43. > :14:45.ban earlier this year and was denied a wildcard at the French Open before

:14:46. > :14:52.missing Wimbledon through injury. I guess it just ignites that debate

:14:53. > :14:57.once again about whether or not you should be rewarding Maria Sharapova,

:14:58. > :15:02.you are essentially giving her an easy route back to the top of the

:15:03. > :15:08.game. I am sure that will annoy some people. A quick look at the front

:15:09. > :15:16.pages. The Daily Express leads with house prices, up by ?10,000. You

:15:17. > :15:20.might have seen this in quite a few of the papers today, it was

:15:21. > :15:25.mentioned yesterday, the cloakroom girl who became an overnight singing

:15:26. > :15:34.sensation. Essentially, she worked giving tickets at, she had to fill

:15:35. > :15:40.in at the Opera. And she wowed everyone -- out. The front page of

:15:41. > :15:46.the Guardian, talking about the customs union. Discussing that in

:15:47. > :15:50.detail yesterday. EU chiefs condemn what they call the fantasy of the UK

:15:51. > :15:57.plan to mirror the customs union. The Mail, Big Ben and climbing down.

:15:58. > :16:03.We have been talking about that over the last few days, whether the bongs

:16:04. > :16:08.are going to be silenced. Has the BBC got a recipe for success?

:16:09. > :16:13.Talking about the new programme which is starting soon. Lots of

:16:14. > :16:22.advertisers for that. Could be a bit of a... And Helen Mirren talking

:16:23. > :16:28.about being too sexy. The front page of the Daily Telegraph, a different

:16:29. > :16:36.story. Talking about babies being led down by NHS wonders. Increasing

:16:37. > :16:43.issues by a record amount, even for normal births. Also talking about

:16:44. > :16:47.the radial increases. And this is about classical music. The classical

:16:48. > :16:53.music system is biased against black musicians who have a lack of role

:16:54. > :16:54.models, that is according to the founder of Britain's first orchestra

:16:55. > :17:10.made up of This is a picture of dancers and

:17:11. > :17:16.musicians from the military tattoo, in Edinburgh to mark 70 years of

:17:17. > :17:20.India's independence. I suppose Neymar at the moment after that

:17:21. > :17:28.world record Trans four -- transfer the move. He is on top of the world.

:17:29. > :17:33.This is a 39 foot chair outside the UN in Geneva. He has signed up as a

:17:34. > :17:39.good will ambassador and this was him showing off his football skills

:17:40. > :17:43.on top of the chair. In fairness, a lot of the article talks about how

:17:44. > :17:49.it has taken the pressure off Paul Pogba. It has eclipsed his transfer

:17:50. > :17:55.fee by some margin and taken the pressure off him. It is a big chair.

:17:56. > :18:02.A huge chair. I've got one other thing to show you. Have you ever put

:18:03. > :18:07.together some monstrous Lego or something like that? Not for a long

:18:08. > :18:12.time. This is what David Beckham put on his social media. He was trying

:18:13. > :18:23.to build this princess Castle for his daughter. Six days later, can

:18:24. > :18:26.you see it, he has completed it. Given our next story, wasn't she

:18:27. > :18:33.making it with him? May be the gift was an already made

:18:34. > :18:38.one. We put some together over Christmas

:18:39. > :18:43.and it took... It took an awful long time. Ours was only about the deeper

:18:44. > :18:49.still took about two days. It might be relevant to this story.

:18:50. > :18:52.From Clarks selling Dolly Babe shoes for girls and Leader shoes

:18:53. > :18:55.for boys, to the Prime Minister describing taking out the bins

:18:56. > :18:58.Perceived differences between the genders still exist

:18:59. > :19:01.at all levels of society, perhaps demonstrated most strongly

:19:02. > :19:05.Now a new documentary series asks if gender neutral schools

:19:06. > :19:12.We can speak to the doctor behind the experiment in a moment,

:19:13. > :19:15.but first let's take a look at the programme.

:19:16. > :19:21.Men are better because they are stronger and they've got more jobs.

:19:22. > :19:27.I think I would describe a girl is pretty, lipstick, dresses, Love

:19:28. > :19:33.hearts. Boys can only do football. Why is it only boys can play

:19:34. > :19:39.football? Because they are fitter and stronger. Boys can find lots of

:19:40. > :19:45.people. Who is more important, girls or boys? Boys, because they protect

:19:46. > :19:49.girls more. I think men are more successful because they can have

:19:50. > :19:58.more higher jobs and they would earn more. I think men are better, like,

:19:59. > :20:03.being in charge. I think boys are cleverer than girls because they...

:20:04. > :20:06.Don't... They get into president easily, don't they?

:20:07. > :20:14.Well, do they? With us is the man behind all of this.

:20:15. > :20:17.Doctor Javid Abdelmoneim joins us now.

:20:18. > :20:24.What were you trying to do here? We were trying to go into a school,

:20:25. > :20:28.take an ordinary class of seven or eight -year-olds and see if there

:20:29. > :20:33.were any differences in their attitudes or behaviour is into what

:20:34. > :20:36.they thought they could do as boys and girls and if there were any

:20:37. > :20:41.differences change that. So it's about not gender stereotyping and

:20:42. > :20:47.giving them the fullest type of development education. There are

:20:48. > :20:51.people who may misunderstand what the programme is trying to do. It's

:20:52. > :20:56.not about being gender fluid or gender neutrality, this is about

:20:57. > :20:59.removing stereotypes and seeing if that can make a difference going

:21:00. > :21:03.forward. Exactly. I am glad you clarified that, because this is

:21:04. > :21:08.about gender equality and not gender identity. There are two very

:21:09. > :21:12.different things. There have already been comments on Twitter about that

:21:13. > :21:16.and it's not about that at all. you not ignoring that there are

:21:17. > :21:19.biological differences between boys and girls. It is the age-old

:21:20. > :21:25.argument of nature and nurture, which one is it? That's a really

:21:26. > :21:30.complex question that is very difficult to answer. What we are

:21:31. > :21:37.trying to work out is say, fine, there is biology. But at this age if

:21:38. > :21:42.we can do something to make sure that they are nurtured in equal

:21:43. > :21:47.ways, so that each one thinks they can achieve as much as the other,

:21:48. > :21:55.and isn't pigeonholed into a certain set of behaviours and attitudes,, so

:21:56. > :22:01.they can develop fully, that is the objective. The thing that seems

:22:02. > :22:04.obvious to me is the girls from an early age seriously underestimate

:22:05. > :22:10.themselves and lack of confidence. The boys... They find it difficult

:22:11. > :22:14.to express emotions unless they are lying on the floor. This is one of

:22:15. > :22:22.them having a tantrum. How do you think this has evolved? There are a

:22:23. > :22:28.lot of messages from the moment they are born, from advertising, from

:22:29. > :22:33.parents, from social groups, left, right and centre. For example, when

:22:34. > :22:37.we were filming this and the children were put onto the idea

:22:38. > :22:42.there was a supermarket, a common high-street supermarket poster, an

:22:43. > :22:46.advert for chocolate eggs, and there was a picture of a pair of marigolds

:22:47. > :22:51.and washing up clubs and a half eaten egg -- clubs. The title said,

:22:52. > :22:57.treat your daughter for doing the washing up. And they spotted that?

:22:58. > :23:03.Yes, and these messages are everywhere. I've got a little pony

:23:04. > :23:06.and we've got a car. We were on the streets of Manchester and we ask

:23:07. > :23:08.some children which one of these toys they would prefer to play with.

:23:09. > :23:24.This is what happened. So, which one of these toys would

:23:25. > :23:28.you prefer to play with? That one. This is fun to play with because you

:23:29. > :23:32.can have races and this is fine if you want to do it on your own.

:23:33. > :23:36.Because it's a boy toy. The girl would like to play with this because

:23:37. > :23:42.it is beautiful and little girl's fashion. Because it's more girly. A

:23:43. > :23:48.boy could play with that. It doesn't really matter. Why did you pick this

:23:49. > :23:54.one? Because. Because what? It's cool. Is this not cool? No. If you

:23:55. > :24:07.are a girl would be cool? No. One pony down. So interesting. For

:24:08. > :24:14.example, the point you make on the programme, this is a generalisation

:24:15. > :24:18.in some way, but the way the teacher talked to children was interesting

:24:19. > :24:24.and he was aware of that in some ways. The teacher was an affable and

:24:25. > :24:27.kind man and the whole school... I actually thought we would find a big

:24:28. > :24:30.difference as they were onto cheating these children as

:24:31. > :24:36.individuals, and yet we did find them. -- treating. So the idea was

:24:37. > :24:40.to remove any stigma, any action, any behaviour that emphasised the

:24:41. > :24:47.difference between them as boys and girls and one of those behaviours

:24:48. > :24:53.was the teacher, Mr Andre, his terms of endearment is worse stereotypes.

:24:54. > :24:58.He called the boys make and the girls sweet pea. We asked them to

:24:59. > :25:02.call them by their first names and so on doing that it deemphasised the

:25:03. > :25:07.difference. It is a fascinating. You think you made progress? That would

:25:08. > :25:12.be giving it away, but I believe I did. We will be seeing you later.

:25:13. > :25:15.With had so many comments on this already. Francesca says it was

:25:16. > :25:19.originally the other way round, who was for girls because it represented

:25:20. > :25:25.purity and pink was a traditional colourful boys because of its

:25:26. > :25:29.representation of strength. Lucy says her four-year-old boy loves

:25:30. > :25:34.yellow, wants to be a farmer and Fisher Mann, his favourite films are

:25:35. > :25:38.Tinkerbell and sweet pea. Harriet says her little boy got a doll for

:25:49. > :25:55.and two girls. They were all caught selling, cooking, gardening, how to

:25:56. > :25:59.change car wheels and oil. The influence of the parent is huge in

:37:01. > :37:05.the old beast in there. HMS Queen Elizabeth and I, some people call

:38:45. > :38:53.The second leg is at Anfield next Tuesday, the winner qualifies

:38:54. > :39:03.It was, because I told him he has got to do it. I don't want credit

:39:04. > :39:09.for it, because he is the only one who can shoot free kicks better than

:39:10. > :39:16.I ever could. I have said it a few times, I have watched as many games

:39:17. > :39:24.as I could last year. He took the free kicks in a goal by similar

:39:25. > :39:27.size, and he very well. Various praise from former club legends

:39:28. > :39:40.including Jamie Carrigan. This is a picture of him when he was a mascot

:42:02. > :42:08.All of a sudden there was just a huge bang. You could feel it shape

:42:09. > :42:15.underneath your feet. People just started running screaming.

:42:16. > :42:19.Subconsciously you knew what it was. I think the initial reaction was

:42:20. > :42:24.just to get out as quickly as he could. My next exam was my next day

:42:25. > :42:29.after the concert. In the morning at nine o'clock. So I was really tired

:42:30. > :42:33.because I didn't get much sleep. I was due to do my last exam on the

:42:34. > :42:39.Friday after it happened, and I thought, give it a few days and see.

:42:40. > :42:43.I got there, I opened the paper and tried to do the first question, I

:42:44. > :42:46.kept reading the same question but I couldn't compound walls on the

:42:47. > :42:53.paper. I just kept thinking about the night before, and I just asked,

:42:54. > :42:56.please, can I leave? Because I just couldn't think. I couldn't pluck up

:42:57. > :43:10.enough courage and I couldn't get myself to concentrate for the exam.

:43:11. > :43:14.At first I felt like I couldn't do anything, but then we were given the

:43:15. > :43:18.opportunity to sing at the concert. It was an amazing experience and we

:43:19. > :43:23.got to raise so much money, and it is just a really good feeling. It is

:43:24. > :43:28.nice being part of something really special. We were fortunate enough to

:43:29. > :43:35.get out unharmed, we want to do what we can for the people that didn't

:43:36. > :43:39.and show our respect. It has been a really pivotal moment in my life. I

:43:40. > :43:46.know this is something that is a huge part of my character and

:43:47. > :43:51.identity now. It has just changed my outlook. I am just thankful that I

:43:52. > :43:55.am alive. So even if something happens that seems bad, I just kind

:43:56. > :44:01.of lift my head up and think, it's OK, it's not the end of the world. I

:44:02. > :44:04.think I was a lot more stressed before the concert, and I think

:44:05. > :44:08.afterwards you really put everything into perspective. It teaches you not

:44:09. > :44:11.to stress about the little things as much. One of the most important

:44:12. > :44:16.things is to keep your loved ones close and be happy and grab every

:44:17. > :44:20.single opportunity that comes to you. As long as you know you've

:44:21. > :44:24.tried hard, it doesn't really matter what happens afterwards. As long as

:44:25. > :44:25.you've put your best in and you know that you've done everything you can,

:44:26. > :44:34.then you don't need to worry at all. Many thanks to the two of them,

:44:35. > :44:39.Shaunna and Adam, for talking to us. You can really imagine how tough

:44:40. > :44:43.that would be. All the best with their results, and all the best to

:44:44. > :44:46.all of you who are getting results this morning. A reminder of the top

:44:47. > :44:48.stories this morning. The biggest warship ever built

:44:49. > :44:51.for the Royal Navy - the aircraft carrier,

:44:52. > :44:53.HMS Queen Elizabeth - is entering her home port

:44:54. > :44:57.of Portsmouth for the first time. The UK government will insist

:44:58. > :45:01.there must be "no return to the hard borders of the past" as it

:45:02. > :45:04.publishes its proposals for ensuring goods and people can travel freely

:45:05. > :45:06.between Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic

:45:07. > :45:19.after Brexit. Someone has we plugged Carol's

:45:20. > :45:23.computer. She is back with a first look at the weather forecast. Good

:45:24. > :45:29.morning. Good morning. Fingers crossed, you never know what's

:45:30. > :45:33.happening! Today we have rain in parts of Northern Ireland. That will

:45:34. > :45:37.move eastwards very slowly as we go through the day and not all of us

:45:38. > :45:42.will see it. It's courtesy of this low pressure. You can tell just by

:45:43. > :45:47.looking at the isobars that it is also going to be pretty gusty winds,

:45:48. > :45:50.especially through the Irish Sea. This morning across south-west

:45:51. > :45:54.England and Wales it's a mostly dry story. The same for the Midlands and

:45:55. > :46:00.southern counties, Kent and east Anglia. There is cloud around and it

:46:01. > :46:03.will become sunnier as the cloud breaks later. In northern England

:46:04. > :46:07.are dry and fine start. Through the morning the rain will be advancing

:46:08. > :46:12.across Northern Ireland. The cloud building ahead of it. At this stage

:46:13. > :46:17.in Scotland it is an EB start. Only about four degrees. Nonetheless, a

:46:18. > :46:22.sunny one. Through the day here comes the rain coming in the western

:46:23. > :46:24.Scotland and eventually into north-west England, west Wales and

:46:25. > :46:29.Devon and Cornwall. Through the afternoon some of that could be

:46:30. > :46:33.heavy. If you are further towards central, eastern and southern

:46:34. > :46:39.England, you should stay dry and it will feel pleasant in any sunshine,

:46:40. > :46:43.with highs of up to 23- 24 degrees. Overnight the rain continues to move

:46:44. > :46:48.eastwards, getting over the lower UK. By the end of the night some of

:46:49. > :46:58.this will be heavy. Clear sky is falling behind and showers. Murky at

:46:59. > :47:02.times around the coast. Tomorrow we start off with this cloud and some

:47:03. > :47:06.rain across the south-east. You can see how it pulls through the Channel

:47:07. > :47:11.Islands and towards the near continent. Cloud left in its wake

:47:12. > :47:16.and further showers develop. A couple could be heavy and it will be

:47:17. > :47:20.a day of sunshine and showers. As we head towards the weekend you can see

:47:21. > :47:24.low pressure still dominating the weather. Isobars still closely

:47:25. > :47:32.packed together. It will be pretty windy. Noticeably so on Friday. Even

:47:33. > :47:36.inland it will be gusty. We will have rain and showers. But if you

:47:37. > :47:41.dodge those it will be dry and there will be sunshine. For the weekend,

:47:42. > :47:48.breezy at times, sunshine and showers. Further south the few

:47:49. > :47:52.showers you are likely to see. This is Saturday. Again, a lot of dry

:47:53. > :47:58.weather and the odd shower possible. A few more coming across the north.

:47:59. > :48:02.As we head on into Sunday, it looks like it could be wet and windy

:48:03. > :48:15.across northern areas, but that forecast could change. If you have

:48:16. > :48:21.outdoor plans on Sunday. Thank you for the warning. See later. That's

:48:22. > :48:24.the weather this morning. Hopefully we will have Carol through the

:48:25. > :48:30.morning. This is the scene in Portsmouth. A little murky. That in

:48:31. > :48:36.the middle of your screen is the biggest aircraft carrier we have

:48:37. > :48:43.ever built in the UK. It is arriving in Portsmouth. You can see the

:48:44. > :48:48.slightly smaller vessels which have turned up to help her into port.

:48:49. > :48:53.The largest and most powerful warship ever built for the navy.

:48:54. > :49:01.Nicknamed by some as Big Lizzie. But I am going to refer do -- refer to

:49:02. > :49:05.her by her full name. There were concerns because some of the planes

:49:06. > :49:10.which should be used an odd ready. We will talk about that and of

:49:11. > :49:14.course the impact on Portsmouth and what it means for the navy as well

:49:15. > :49:20.throughout the programme. We will watch her progress closely. We are

:49:21. > :49:24.expecting a fly past at either 7:09 or 7:14.

:49:25. > :49:28.You know everything about this! We will be speaking to some of the

:49:29. > :49:31.people who will be living and working on there. There will be some

:49:32. > :49:39.American planes next year. It's a shared platform. And the jets being

:49:40. > :49:42.made for it will be ready by about 2020- 2021. Plenty more detail on

:49:43. > :49:46.that later in the programme. It does look pretty impressive. All

:49:47. > :49:49.this week some of you will remember we've been looking at family

:49:50. > :49:53.businesses. Thank you so much for all of your examples and photographs

:49:54. > :49:59.of your family businesses. Steph was on the programme yesterday

:50:00. > :50:03.saying she would be in Wolverhampton and she's woman of her work!

:50:04. > :50:09.There she is this morning. Good morning. Good morning, everyone.

:50:10. > :50:18.Look at that for a bolt! It is very heavy. Have a look. You can see one

:50:19. > :50:24.of the machines here, where there -- they are making the nuts and bolts.

:50:25. > :50:26.These are used in things like skyscrapers, subsea operations,

:50:27. > :50:31.basically mega structures that need really specialist bolts and this is

:50:32. > :50:35.a small business, a family business. There are 15 people who work here.

:50:36. > :50:40.Five of them are family members. What is really just on about this is

:50:41. > :50:44.how much it has changed as it has passed through the generations. You

:50:45. > :50:47.will see these old machines here. Interestingly, this business used to

:50:48. > :50:53.be focused on these old ones where they used to mass-produce nuts and

:50:54. > :50:56.bolts but then they were struggling to compete with China as when the

:50:57. > :51:01.business was taken over by the sun in the family he decided to invest

:51:02. > :51:12.in all of this kit to make it more specialist -- son. We have John and

:51:13. > :51:16.Clare here. Tell us about taking over the business from your dad. I

:51:17. > :51:21.came to the business 30 years ago, working for my dad. I buried

:51:22. > :51:29.different business in those days. -- very different. We were using a lot

:51:30. > :51:33.of components and competing with the fiery -- far east, which proved to

:51:34. > :51:42.be more difficult as the 90s progressed. In 1998I decided we have

:51:43. > :51:47.to be more specialised so we moved the business and refocused on being

:51:48. > :51:51.very specialist and that's where the business started to boom. Over the

:51:52. > :51:55.last ten years we have done really well and just brought this facility

:51:56. > :51:59.here, with a view to making the business a long-term success for the

:52:00. > :52:02.kids that have come into the business. It is a real family

:52:03. > :52:12.affair, isn't it? You've got all your boys here. Yes! How world are

:52:13. > :52:19.they? They are still quite young? Max has just left school and is 16.

:52:20. > :52:23.We've got Thomas. He is 17. He has been with us for 12 months doing an

:52:24. > :52:29.apprenticeship. Then we've got our oldest son, Jack, who is 19. We will

:52:30. > :52:34.have a chat with him as well. What's really interesting is what you were

:52:35. > :52:38.saying about how your idea of the business changed once the lads came

:52:39. > :52:43.onboard. Absolutely. I suppose it was always the case of being a

:52:44. > :52:48.career for me. I came in when I was 17. No wife or children and it was

:52:49. > :52:53.just a job and career and as my wife joined the business ten or 15 years

:52:54. > :52:58.ago and then the boys, we started to have a family, it became apparent

:52:59. > :53:02.that there was a bigger thing at play and we really have to look

:53:03. > :53:06.beyond our exit plan and make sure the business was strong and grew for

:53:07. > :53:12.their future. When you go home to you all talk about nuts and bolts?

:53:13. > :53:16.Sometimes we do! That's hilarious. We try to have a Christmas Day off

:53:17. > :53:21.where we don't talk about it, what it does generally dominate the

:53:22. > :53:26.dinner table. Jack, what's it like working for your mum and dad? It was

:53:27. > :53:30.weird at first, but I'm really enjoying it at the moment. What made

:53:31. > :53:35.you join the business? Cause you are one of the directors now. I was

:53:36. > :53:39.really interested in it from a young age. We always spoke about it.

:53:40. > :53:43.Lovely to meet you. I know we will talk to you throughout the morning.

:53:44. > :53:47.There's one other person I want you to meet. We've been talking every

:53:48. > :53:51.day about how successful family businesses are but they can be quite

:53:52. > :53:56.challenging. I know Clare has done some research on this. Good morning.

:53:57. > :54:03.Tell us about what the challenges are. There are many family

:54:04. > :54:08.businesses. We carried out a family global survey and the main challenge

:54:09. > :54:12.we found is most family businesses don't have a very clear long-term

:54:13. > :54:16.strategic plan in place and they aren't clear on the steps that need

:54:17. > :54:20.to take place to achieve their long-term vision. We also find that

:54:21. > :54:24.many family businesses are concerned about succession planning. How will

:54:25. > :54:32.you've passed the business over and to? -- how you will pass. John was

:54:33. > :54:36.saying his idea of the business really changed when it went on to

:54:37. > :54:40.the third generation and that can be a tricky point. Only 12% of family

:54:41. > :54:45.businesses passed to the third generation and it can be hard to get

:54:46. > :54:49.it right. John is getting the next generation into the business, which

:54:50. > :54:53.is key. He is thinking about what the future looks like for them and

:54:54. > :54:57.how to give their support for the leadership roles they want to take.

:54:58. > :55:00.We will talk about productivity later as well. More from me in about

:55:01. > :55:08.20 minutes. This is dead interesting. I love nuts and bolts!

:55:09. > :55:12.I can hear that manufacturing drone in the background as well. You can

:55:13. > :55:17.hear there's a lot of work going on. A very calming noise. We've had so

:55:18. > :55:21.many great features. Thank you from all -- for all of your pictures. We

:55:22. > :56:26.want to share some of them with you. There's a real tradition, is unfair?

:56:27. > :56:31.Bizarrely, I was shopping for carpets in Wakefield yesterday and

:56:32. > :56:35.John runs a business with his brother, Steve, he has his son,

:56:36. > :56:40.Christian, his nephew and sister-in-law and it was set up his

:56:41. > :56:46.dad and dad was a rather and his auntie in the 1980s. They were

:56:47. > :56:49.everywhere, this family businesses. His son had just been fitting

:56:50. > :56:51.carpet, they turned up, the nephew was there, everyone was involved!

:56:52. > :00:14.Brilliant. More from HMS Queen I'm back with the latest

:00:15. > :00:19.from the BBC London newsroom Hello this is Breakfast,

:00:20. > :00:29.with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin. Britain's largest aircraft carrier

:02:16. > :02:18.with some high-level clouds. That will break leaving a sunny

:02:28. > :02:31.for the Royal Navy will arrive at its new home in Portsmouth

:02:32. > :02:48.for the first time this morning. HMS Queen Elizabeth cost three

:02:51. > :02:53.without aircraft until flying trials Our South of England correspondent

:02:54. > :03:08.Duncan Kennedy reports. This is an historical moment for the

:03:09. > :03:13.Navy and for Portsmouth, which is where she will spend the next few

:03:14. > :03:21.years. You can see some of the 679 crew on board. It will eventually

:03:22. > :03:27.rise to 1600 crew members. We will be there in Portsmouth throughout

:03:28. > :03:32.the morning. Here is a bit more explanation about exactly what the

:03:33. > :03:36.boat will do. The one fact that I remember is that there are so many

:03:37. > :03:47.of them is on the boat that it can bake 1000 loaves of bread in a

:03:48. > :03:51.single day. -- so many ovens. What is really lovely about this picture

:03:52. > :03:55.as well is all the other boats that have come out to welcome her. With a

:03:56. > :04:05.couple of minutes ago, hundreds of people turning out in the city to

:04:06. > :04:09.welcome her home. It does look very beautiful, but there are concerns

:04:10. > :04:14.about the fact it is three years later, and there are no British

:04:15. > :04:21.planes ready to be on board the vessel as yet. They are four years

:04:22. > :04:25.delayed. They have changed plans slightly, so there will be some

:04:26. > :04:31.American and British jet on there in the next few years, fully up and

:04:32. > :04:42.running by about 2021. Yes, fully loaded with aircraft I 2021. What a

:04:43. > :04:47.beautiful site this morning. We will be there throughout the day. -- by.

:05:09. > :05:11.is being published today and will firmly reject what it calls

:05:12. > :05:17.Our Ireland correspondent Chris Page is in Belfast.

:05:18. > :05:24.Chris, Northern Ireland is one of the most difficult Brexit issues.

:05:25. > :05:35.This is a key issue? It is. One of the most pressing issues in Brexit.

:05:36. > :05:41.The moment you drive across the border, you hardly even notice it.

:05:42. > :05:46.Everybody involved in the process want the situation to retain an open

:05:47. > :05:51.border. The question is, how do you do that when the UK is outside the

:05:52. > :05:55.customs union and the Republic of Ireland is inside? The paper that

:05:56. > :05:58.they are publishing today has reiterated that they don't want any

:05:59. > :06:05.physical infrastructure on the border after Brexit. They have

:06:06. > :06:09.proposed a couple of ideas. They said there could be a new customs

:06:10. > :06:14.partnership between the UK and the EU. That would mean they would still

:06:15. > :06:18.have the same tariffs for goods entering and exiting the countries.

:06:19. > :06:26.No need for customs checks. The other possibility is a streamlined

:06:27. > :06:29.customs arrangement. An electronic monitoring system for goods crossing

:06:30. > :06:34.the border. Critics say the plans lack detail.

:06:35. > :06:37.Donald Trump has faced renewed criticism from within his own

:06:38. > :06:39.Republican party by again blaming both sides involved in the clashes

:06:40. > :06:43.The US President appeared to distance himself from his own

:06:44. > :06:46.statement a day earlier in which he condemned white supremacists.

:06:47. > :06:54.Our US correspondent David Willis reports.

:06:55. > :07:02.He was scheduled to make a statement about infrastructure, only veering

:07:03. > :07:06.wildly off message and referring to his original assessment of the cause

:07:07. > :07:10.of Saturday's violence. I think there is blame on both sides. You

:07:11. > :07:14.look at both sides, I think there is blame on both sides and I have no

:07:15. > :07:20.doubt about it, and you don't have any doubt about it either. And, and

:07:21. > :07:26.if you reported it accurately, you would see that. Can do and for

:07:27. > :07:30.failing to apportion lame for the violence which left one person dead

:07:31. > :07:35.and more than 30 injured, the President took to the White House on

:07:36. > :07:38.Monday to denounce racism and the white supremacist groups that

:07:39. > :07:44.organised the rally. A carefully worded statement which briefly

:07:45. > :07:49.served to cool the embers of outrage, only for the President to

:07:50. > :07:54.reignite them 24 hours later. You had a group on one side that was bad

:07:55. > :07:58.and a group on the other side that was also very violent. Nobody wants

:07:59. > :08:01.to say that, but I will say it. It wanted sweeping condemnation from

:08:02. > :08:12.leaders of his own party. The Speaker of the house to Twitter to

:08:13. > :08:17.say: A notable source of support came from David Duke, the former

:08:18. > :08:24.leader of the Ku Klux Klan. He applauded the President. With police

:08:25. > :08:29.forces around the country bracing for similar protests to the one in

:08:30. > :08:33.Charlottesville, there is concern the latest remarks might serve to

:08:34. > :08:38.embolden certain elements at those protests.

:08:39. > :08:42.A hospital trust at the centre of an inquiry into a number

:08:43. > :08:44.of avoidable deaths among newborn babies has been criticised

:08:45. > :08:46.for failing to learn the lessons of past mistakes.

:09:57. > :10:06.These are all the boats that have arrived to welcome her in

:10:07. > :10:11.Portsmouth. She is just at the bottom of our screen. You can see

:10:12. > :10:20.that beautiful Portsmouth at dockyard. As we come back, here we

:10:21. > :10:27.go. In control. Right on time. What a beautiful site this morning. HMS

:10:28. > :10:31.Queen Elizabeth, this is going to be her new home. They have dredged the

:10:32. > :10:33.harbour of millions of tons of sediment to make it deep enough for

:10:34. > :10:49.her to get in. Our reporter Duncan Kennedy

:10:50. > :10:52.is on the South Coast this morning - Duncan how far has it

:10:53. > :10:58.got? It is very loud, we have got hands

:10:59. > :11:07.and families cheering. What an historic day. -- bands. Coming in

:11:08. > :11:12.behind us, a very large aircraft carrier. The Royal Navy has never

:11:13. > :11:16.seen anything like it. Portsmouth Harbour has never seen anything like

:11:17. > :11:22.it and neither have Britain's defence forces. An extraordinary

:11:23. > :11:31.vessel. Getting a big cheer from the families. All excited to see crew

:11:32. > :11:35.members who have been at sea for the past two months or so, testing out

:11:36. > :11:40.propulsion and absolutely everything on board. They are all lined up on

:11:41. > :11:50.the decks in their various uniforms. Something like 670 crew members, not

:11:51. > :11:54.like the old days where he had nearly 1200 staff. It is all

:11:55. > :11:59.computerised, you don't need a catapult system like those former

:12:00. > :12:03.carriers had. The jets will be eventually landing on the deck of

:12:04. > :12:12.this beauty. A short and vertical takeoff and landing. We will see

:12:13. > :12:18.these F35B aircraft are not coming on board for several more years.

:12:19. > :12:24.They will not be fully functional on this carrier until 2020. Or

:12:25. > :12:28.thereabouts. This is the home port of the Royal Navy, what a sight it

:12:29. > :12:35.is. An extremely important day for the Royal Navy. A redefinition of

:12:36. > :12:39.what the Royal Navy does. Massive firepower, changing the role and

:12:40. > :12:48.giving a different configurations to British defence forces for the next

:12:49. > :12:50.50 years. Thank you very much. Staying with these pictures for the

:12:51. > :12:54.moment. The naval historian and defence

:12:55. > :13:03.analyst Professor Eric Grove How significant is this for the

:13:04. > :13:07.Royal Navy? Very significant. These will be their capital assets for the

:13:08. > :13:11.next half a century. They have been awaiting the coming of these. They

:13:12. > :13:19.will not be fully operational for another year or two. But actually,

:13:20. > :13:24.when we saw the helicopters flying past, she could operate helicopters

:13:25. > :13:30.very quickly after she is condition. But her primary role is to take on

:13:31. > :13:35.vertical Landing jets. We have had about ten trials in America, the

:13:36. > :13:43.first ten on trial to do that. By 2020 she should be commissioned with

:13:44. > :13:54.what is called a combined air group of British and American aircraft.

:13:55. > :13:58.Giving people an idea of how long this has been in commission... This

:13:59. > :14:03.will be part of the navy for the next 50 years? Very much so. It took

:14:04. > :14:08.about ten years for the design to be settled. Since then, the ship has

:14:09. > :14:12.been built. One important thing is that the ship was built all over the

:14:13. > :14:17.country. One of the first rules in her construction was that she had to

:14:18. > :14:26.be built in Britain, and she has been, all over. In many places,

:14:27. > :14:33.including Clyde and Birkenhead. She is very much a UK national asset.

:14:34. > :14:44.The investment of her construction has been a great help to those ship

:14:45. > :14:51.elders. And she has a sister ship in production, the HMS Prince of Wales?

:14:52. > :14:55.Yes, and it has gone massively overbudget production. It was

:14:56. > :15:05.delayed to save money in the short term, but this costs more money in

:15:06. > :15:09.the long-term. Initially over 3 billion, now over $6 billion. What

:15:10. > :15:15.do you envisage these being used for? A whole range of things. It is

:15:16. > :15:20.our box, and airfield, you can use it for disaster relief through to

:15:21. > :15:29.carrier strike. At her maximum, she can carry 36 jets, 22 could go into

:15:30. > :15:35.in a strike. That could knock out a small country. She is a powerful

:15:41. > :15:44.One of the reasons why it is later than expected to be operational is

:15:45. > :15:50.because of the change in those jets. Originally they were going to be a

:15:51. > :15:56.different type of jet, but they were too expensive. She started off as a

:15:57. > :16:04.takeoff and vertical landing, but that changed in 2010. They decided

:16:05. > :16:08.to go back to a similarity to the old carriers. But it was too

:16:09. > :16:10.expensive to convert the ship, and therefore we went back to a short

:16:11. > :16:25.takeoff and vertical landing. It won't be like top gun? But the

:16:26. > :16:27.aircraft will be as good! I knew my knowledge of Top Gun would come in

:16:28. > :16:31.handy. I know you will be back with more

:16:32. > :16:35.later. Thank you very much indeed. We will be there throughout the

:16:36. > :16:39.morning and we will be speaking to people who will be working onboard

:16:40. > :16:42.indeed in charge of that ship, later.

:16:43. > :16:49.If you have any questions, the professor knows the answers to

:16:50. > :16:52.everything! Carol has sorted out her issues and

:16:53. > :16:59.hopefully the weather as well! Good morning. We've got mixed

:17:00. > :17:03.fortunes. A split from the west to the east. In Portsmouth we have more

:17:04. > :17:08.cloud but high cloud and it will break. In the west we have some rain

:17:09. > :17:12.coming in. That is coming in the western parts of Northern Ireland

:17:13. > :17:16.and it will slowly move east through the day. Not all of us will see it.

:17:17. > :17:20.That's courtesy of this low pressure. It will be quite windy,

:17:21. > :17:25.especially with exposure through the Irish Sea and the coast of Scotland.

:17:26. > :17:29.Southern England this morning into dry start with some high-level

:17:30. > :17:34.cloud. The same for east Anglia and into the Midlands and Wales. Bright

:17:35. > :17:37.rather than sunny, although some of us will have sunshine. The same

:17:38. > :17:40.across northern England. For Northern Ireland you have the rain

:17:41. > :17:46.coming in from the west, slowly pushing east. It is also a dry but

:17:47. > :17:50.nippy start under clear skies. The temperatures and Balmoral at the

:17:51. > :17:55.moment is about five. As we had on through the day what happens if the

:17:56. > :17:59.rain moves across all of Northern Ireland, gets in across Scotland,

:18:00. > :18:03.eventually into north-west England, west Wales and south-west England

:18:04. > :18:09.and as it does movies to some of that will be heavy. The cloud builds

:18:10. > :18:15.ahead of it. Further east to other sunnier it will be. In the sunshine,

:18:16. > :18:19.23 will feel pleasant. Overnight the rain continues to advance from the

:18:20. > :18:23.west towards the east. Behind it there will be clearance in the sky.

:18:24. > :18:29.Another chilly one in Scotland, in the sheltered glens. In towns and

:18:30. > :18:34.cities 13- 16. Tomorrow morning we start off on the cloudy and wet note

:18:35. > :18:38.across eastern and some southern parts, including the Channel Islands

:18:39. > :18:44.of England. That will slowly moving to the near continent. Showers will

:18:45. > :18:48.develop and again some of those showers could be heavy. Many of us

:18:49. > :18:55.will miss them and get away with a dry and breezy day. Temperatures

:18:56. > :18:59.again 17- 23. As we head into Friday, low pressure is still very

:19:00. > :19:04.much in charge of our weather, so we will have a fair few showers. As you

:19:05. > :19:09.can see from the isobars as well, it will be fairly windy. Gusty winds

:19:10. > :19:12.through the central swathes of the country and again the east

:19:13. > :19:19.especially so with exposure. Some of the showers will rank together,

:19:20. > :19:24.producing heavy outbreaks. The weekend is breezy, with sunshine and

:19:25. > :19:28.showers. The further south you are the less likely you are to catch a

:19:29. > :19:32.shower, depending on your point of view. More showers further north,

:19:33. > :19:38.especially across Scotland. That leaves us into Sunday. Sunday's

:19:39. > :19:42.forecast could change, but at the moment it looks like we have rain

:19:43. > :19:45.coming across the north of the country. So the weather can't decide

:19:46. > :19:48.what it's going to do. It up and down.

:19:49. > :19:53.Thank you very much. It does look it. See you later.

:19:54. > :19:57.It looks very nice in Portsmouth this morning.

:19:58. > :20:00.It looks like a calm day. We will be back there later to see

:20:01. > :20:05.HMS Queen Elizabeth. I can see it out of the corner of my

:20:06. > :20:07.eye. We will be back there throughout the morning. Time for

:20:08. > :20:08.another story this morning. Can someone who's abused

:20:09. > :20:11.their partner be made to change their ways

:20:12. > :20:13.in just two days? That's the initial findings

:20:14. > :20:15.of a trial by researchers from Cambridge University

:20:16. > :20:17.and Hampshire Police. Almost 300 people convicted

:20:18. > :20:19.of domestic violence offences for the first time, were sent

:20:20. > :20:22.on a specially designed Among those who attended,

:20:23. > :20:30.re-offending fell by over a third. Some have criticised the scheme,

:20:31. > :20:32.saying the focus should be We're joined now by Chantal Hughes,

:20:33. > :20:36.Chief Executive of the Hampton Trust, a domestic abuse charity

:20:37. > :20:40.which provides the course from Southampton, and Katie Ghose,

:20:41. > :20:53.Chief Executive of Women's Aid Good morning to you both. We will

:20:54. > :20:59.come to you first up, to your mind what has caused this drop? I think

:21:00. > :21:03.the first reason for causing the drop is that what we have done is

:21:04. > :21:08.we've set up a course where we are... We are inviting participants

:21:09. > :21:12.to come into the programme and reflect on their behaviour. What's

:21:13. > :21:16.happened is they are released from custody and they don't have any

:21:17. > :21:20.interventions at all. So that's very unhelpful and what we are getting

:21:21. > :21:24.them to do is to come on and to realise that they are being abusive,

:21:25. > :21:30.they are using a range of tactics that are put in their families and

:21:31. > :21:35.survivors, victims, children at risk and we want to start discussions and

:21:36. > :21:37.encourage them to access a range of other services, including

:21:38. > :21:45.perpetrator programmes that offer long-term help. Katie, we mentioned

:21:46. > :21:49.the concerns of some people have. Can you turn around the behaviour in

:21:50. > :21:53.two days. The Crown Prosecution Service are unsure and say their

:21:54. > :21:57.analysis is ongoing. Do you understand those concerns, about

:21:58. > :22:02.whether a two-day course can change that behaviour? We very much share

:22:03. > :22:06.and understand those concerns and of course it's important to be

:22:07. > :22:12.providing projects and practical work with perpetrators, the men who

:22:13. > :22:16.commit the domestic abuse. But other research that we looked at suggest

:22:17. > :22:19.that even longer term interventions that take place over months and

:22:20. > :22:27.years can have an effect, but it can be very difficult to tackle the

:22:28. > :22:32.psychological abuse, because if control, that we know is the reality

:22:33. > :22:36.for many women. So that's one of the things that has come from this. We

:22:37. > :22:40.are looking forward to looking at the details, but it can send alarm

:22:41. > :22:44.bells, the idea that in just a few short hours that can be a meaningful

:22:45. > :22:51.reduction in harm. We are also concerned about the survivors and by

:22:52. > :22:54.questions about this would be safe and effective work with perpetrators

:22:55. > :22:57.has to be conducted alongside really meaningful involvement of the

:22:58. > :23:04.survivors. That's about their safety, taking sure that a person in

:23:05. > :23:09.training isn't saying one thing and carrying on with a different course

:23:10. > :23:14.of action at home. The timescale and the lack of concentration on

:23:15. > :23:20.survivors, what about that? First and foremost what I would say is

:23:21. > :23:23.that this was not set up to be a behaviour change programme. This is

:23:24. > :23:26.targeting a range of offenders that would be released from custody

:23:27. > :23:31.currently in other areas of the country and historically in

:23:32. > :23:35.Hampshire with something called a simple caution, which is just a

:23:36. > :23:41.caution not to reoffend. So when they come into workshops delivered

:23:42. > :23:44.by the Hampshire Trust, we are saying we want them to look at some

:23:45. > :23:48.alternative interventions and access a range of services. That's one

:23:49. > :23:51.thing I would say. Secondly, in response to looking at survivors and

:23:52. > :23:58.victims, we did consult them. There was a lot of leading time, a lot of

:23:59. > :24:02.strategic work that went into this and what we did is ask them what

:24:03. > :24:06.they felt would be an enhanced criminal justice response. They

:24:07. > :24:09.would provide -- something that would provide something more robust

:24:10. > :24:15.than what they were currently receiving. We know they have to give

:24:16. > :24:18.permission for their partners, or ex- partners, to attend the

:24:19. > :24:22.workshops and in between the workshops we make contact with them.

:24:23. > :24:28.So at all times their safety is factored in. What we want to know is

:24:29. > :24:31.why there any concerns and if there are then what we would do is work

:24:32. > :24:35.closely with Hampshire Constabulary to take steps to make sure that

:24:36. > :24:41.their partners were breached. I'll just come back to you, Katie, I

:24:42. > :24:45.suppose the proof is in the pudding. If there is less reoffending out of

:24:46. > :24:52.this than it's got to be a success, hasn't it? What we all share is a

:24:53. > :24:58.goal of wanting to see safety of survivors, increased safety of women

:24:59. > :25:02.and children and a reduction in violence and it's good to hear a bit

:25:03. > :25:06.more information about this. But what we know is that safe and

:25:07. > :25:10.effective and the best perpetrator programmes would have a wholehearted

:25:11. > :25:13.involvement of the survivor and that means actually specialist support

:25:14. > :25:18.for the survivor going alongside the work with the perpetrator. That's

:25:19. > :25:24.what we would be looking for, with any work with perpetrators. Thank

:25:25. > :25:28.you both for your time and thank you for speaking to us on Breakfast.

:25:29. > :25:35.I want to take us back alive to Portsmouth. We are watching the

:25:36. > :25:40.arrival of HMS Queen Elizabeth, the new British aircraft carrier. She is

:25:41. > :25:44.docking at the moment. That process takes quite a while. She will be

:25:45. > :25:49.fully dropped by about nine a.m.. Although she is an aircraft carrier,

:25:50. > :25:54.at the moment she can't carry aircraft because the planes aren't

:25:55. > :25:59.ready. There won't be enough planes in the UK for a while, until about

:26:00. > :26:04.2020, when they will all be deployed on what is a magnificent ship. Quite

:26:05. > :26:08.a display this morning. 679 crew onboard at the moment. Their

:26:09. > :26:13.families are waiting at the dockside in Portsmouth. Any people have been

:26:14. > :26:19.cheering and other smaller vessels are bringing the HMS Queen Elizabeth

:26:20. > :26:22.into Portsmouth's dock this morning. So quite a crowd and we will be in

:36:44. > :36:50.minister Harriett Baldwin. Why do we need an aircraft carrier

:36:51. > :36:54.like this? It is a fantastic morning, and it is fantastic to see

:36:55. > :36:57.her coming into Portsmouth Harbour. Just to correct you in terms of your

:36:58. > :37:01.introductory remarks, we do have the jets. They are on board with Royal

:37:02. > :37:04.Navy pilots learning to fly the Royal Navy jet, the Stealth bomber

:37:05. > :37:08.which will be aboard the HMS Queen Elizabeth. It is a very important

:37:09. > :37:12.part of global Britain. We are a trading nation and we will have the

:37:13. > :37:16.ability to have a carrier at sea at all times, which will enable us to

:37:17. > :37:22.project power around the world, do humanitarian relief and of course to

:37:23. > :37:29.be able to be part of Nato operations. It is a really important

:37:30. > :37:34.part of global Britain, keeping our feeling is open. We welcome her into

:37:35. > :37:41.Portsmouth Harbour. She has a 50 year life span as a flagship of the

:37:42. > :37:47.Royal Navy. The jets are not ready yet, we have an aircraft carrier

:37:48. > :37:52.that cannot deploy jets. When will they be available? The aircraft

:37:53. > :37:56.carrier is in a process of being trialled, she has just come back

:37:57. > :38:02.from successful trials of the coast of Scotland. She was working

:38:03. > :38:08.alongside the US carrier, the George HW bush. She will have various test

:38:09. > :38:15.over the next few years, going out from Portsmouth for a more complex

:38:16. > :38:21.set of tests. She will be dressing the testing the systems on-board on

:38:22. > :38:28.the eastern seaboard of the US. It is a process of working up to a new

:38:29. > :38:31.character, and it is very exciting to see the arrival of our new

:38:32. > :38:37.carrier into Portsmouth Harbour this morning. We just want to ask you on

:38:38. > :38:46.comments by Russian officials, why the jets are not ready? He called it

:38:47. > :38:51.a sitting duck. She is being protected by a wide range of assets

:38:52. > :38:57.and the jets are actually ready. So, it is important to emphasise that of

:38:58. > :39:04.course she will have a wide range of systems. For obvious reasons, we

:39:05. > :39:08.don't necessarily publicise those. She is extremely well protected and

:39:09. > :39:12.she is an amazing vessel. You can see just how impressive she is in

:39:13. > :39:21.the camera behind me this morning. You have addressed this in some

:39:22. > :39:27.ways, but why, in this day and age, need to do we need this much

:39:28. > :39:31.firepower? We are a global trading nation and we have the Royal Navy,

:39:32. > :39:38.which is one of the most historic and unbeaten forces around the

:39:39. > :39:45.world. It is the central part of... I think what we take for granted in

:39:46. > :39:48.Britain today, ensuring that we have a strong defence so that we can

:39:49. > :39:54.enjoy the things that we enjoy in peace and go about our daily

:39:55. > :39:58.business without paying tribute enough to the brave men and women in

:41:20. > :41:34.Juergen Klopp said he had played a part in the youngster's goal.

:41:35. > :41:38.I was, actually, because I told him he has got to do it.

:41:39. > :41:41.I don't want credit for it, because he is the only one

:41:42. > :41:44.who can shoot free kicks, better than I ever could.

:41:45. > :41:47.I have said it a few times, I have watched as many games

:41:48. > :41:51.He took the free kicks in a goal by similar

:44:06. > :44:09.And finally a lot of cricketers fancy themselves as decent

:44:10. > :44:12.footballers - well, we've found one who can back it up.

:44:13. > :44:15.This is Derbyshire's Hardus Viljoen, a strapping South African

:44:48. > :45:00.Nadal. Many students will be aware of this,

:45:01. > :45:03.they are gearing up to receive their A-level results. But for two

:45:10. > :45:15.Two were due to take their exams just before a bomb killed 22 people

:45:16. > :45:16.at a concert in May. They both struggled and shared their stories

:45:17. > :45:20.with us this morning. All of a sudden there

:45:21. > :45:23.was just a huge bang. You could feel it shape

:45:24. > :45:25.underneath your feet. People just started

:45:26. > :45:27.running screaming. I think the initial reaction

:45:28. > :45:35.was just to get out as quickly My next exam was my next

:45:36. > :45:40.day after the concert. So I was really tired

:45:41. > :45:45.because I didn't get much sleep. I was due to do my last exam

:45:46. > :45:48.on the Friday after it happened, and I thought, I'll give

:45:49. > :45:52.it a few days and see. I got in there, I opened the paper

:45:53. > :45:58.and tried to do the first question, then I sat there trying

:45:59. > :46:05.to read the second question but I couldn't comprehend

:46:06. > :46:08.what was on the paper. I just kept thinking

:46:09. > :46:10.about the night before, and I just asked,

:46:11. > :46:12.please, can I leave? I couldn't pluck up enough

:46:13. > :46:16.courage and I couldn't get myself to concentrate

:46:17. > :46:25.to revise for the exam. At first I felt like I couldn't do

:46:26. > :46:28.anything, but then we were given the opportunity to

:46:29. > :46:30.sing at the concert. It was an amazing experience

:46:31. > :46:34.and we got to raise so much money, Yeah, it was nice to be part

:46:35. > :46:44.of something really special. We were fortunate enough

:46:45. > :46:46.to get out unharmed, we want to do what we can

:46:47. > :46:49.for the people that didn't It's been a really pivotal

:46:50. > :46:53.moment in my life. I know this is something

:46:54. > :46:57.that is a huge part of my character I think it's just

:46:58. > :47:03.changed my outlook. I need to be thankful

:47:04. > :47:05.that I am alive. So even if something

:47:06. > :47:09.happens that seems bad, I just kind of need to lift

:47:10. > :47:12.my head up and think, it's OK,

:47:13. > :47:15.it's not the end of the world. I think I was a lot more

:47:16. > :47:19.stressed before the concert, and I think afterwards it

:47:20. > :47:21.really put everything It teaches you not to stress

:47:22. > :47:25.about the little things as much. One of the most important things

:47:26. > :47:28.is to keep your loved ones close and be happy and grab every

:47:29. > :47:31.single opportunity that As long as you know you've tried

:47:32. > :47:36.hard, it doesn't really matter As long as you've put your

:47:37. > :47:40.best in and you know that you've done everything you can,

:47:41. > :47:52.then you don't need to worry at all. Good on them. So impressed.

:47:53. > :47:56.Good luck to everybody who is receiving their results. If the next

:47:57. > :48:01.couple of weeks. All the best to those two.

:48:02. > :48:06.You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.

:48:07. > :48:08.Our main story this morning: Britain's largest and most powerful

:48:09. > :48:16.warship has sailed into its new home in Portsmouth.

:48:17. > :48:19.Here's Carol with a look at this morning's weather.

:48:20. > :48:28.Good morning. This is a beautiful Weather Watchers picture sent in

:48:29. > :48:32.this morning and it is of course of East Yorkshire. You the full. The

:48:33. > :48:36.sun is out but it's not out everywhere. In the west of Northern

:48:37. > :48:39.Ireland you have rain and through the day that will slowly move

:48:40. > :48:45.eastwards. It's courtesy of this weather front, connected to this low

:48:46. > :48:50.pressure. One look at the isobars, they are tightly squeezed, so it

:48:51. > :48:53.will be breezy, at windy for some of us, especially through the Irish Sea

:48:54. > :48:58.and western coast of Scotland. A bright start to the day, with some

:48:59. > :49:02.high cloud, but that will tend to break through the afternoon and we

:49:03. > :49:05.will have more sunshine. The rain comes across the Irish Sea into the

:49:06. > :49:10.western fringes of Wales in south-west England. Some of it will

:49:11. > :49:13.be heavy and ahead of it the cloud will build. A lot of dry and sunny

:49:14. > :49:19.weather in the Midlands and east Anglia, Kent, Lincolnshire, up to

:49:20. > :49:22.Northumberland. The rain continues to edge towards north-west England

:49:23. > :49:26.and out of Northern Ireland. Kind it there will be some showers. The

:49:27. > :49:30.Scotland the rain edges along most of Scotland through the afternoon.

:49:31. > :49:34.Some of that is likely to be heavy, especially anywhere with a bit of

:49:35. > :49:39.height. The bridge are wise today about 14- 16 in the north, to about

:49:40. > :49:45.23 in the south. -- temperature wise. 22 in the Channel Islands.

:49:46. > :49:50.Overnight the rain advises eastwards, pushing towards the North

:49:51. > :49:53.Sea, but we still have a lot of it left in central and eastern parts

:49:54. > :49:57.and southern England. Behind that some work around the coast. This

:49:58. > :50:07.morning we've got clear Glenn's. The temperature will dip between about

:50:08. > :50:11.10- 14. Slowly tomorrow we leave the rain and it clears towards the near

:50:12. > :50:15.continent. Behind it there will be some cloud and then brightens up and

:50:16. > :50:18.we have a day of sunshine and showers. Some of them are likely to

:50:19. > :50:23.be heavy. Temperature wise, if you are out of then we have up to 23.

:50:24. > :50:27.For Friday low pressure still drives the weather. You can see the isobars

:50:28. > :50:32.again are tightly packed, which means it will be quite a gusty day.

:50:33. > :50:36.The wind blowing through Northern Ireland and Wales, central parts of

:50:37. > :50:41.England, southern Scotland and quite a few showers. Some of them ganging

:50:42. > :50:45.up to give heavy downpours. You can also see a lot of dry weather in

:50:46. > :50:49.between the showers and as you move further south some of us will miss

:50:50. > :50:55.the showers altogether. In the sunshine highs of 21. It will feel

:50:56. > :50:59.pleasant. Feeling cool if you are courting one of those showers. We

:51:00. > :51:05.head into the weekend it will be breezy, with sunshine and showers.

:51:06. > :51:09.Variable fortunes as to where you will see them. On Saturday, there

:51:10. > :51:13.are few festivals and you could be lucky in southern areas and hang

:51:14. > :51:18.onto a dry day. Perhaps a fleeting shower. Moving further north you are

:51:19. > :51:21.more likely to catch a shower and temperatures on Saturday are 14 -

:51:22. > :51:27.21. Thanks very much. So many of you

:51:28. > :51:31.have been getting in touch this week because of the series on family run

:51:32. > :51:36.businesses, talking about how yours have worked, the generations

:51:37. > :51:40.involved. As promised, Steph is up and about again. A family run firm

:51:41. > :51:49.in Wolverhampton. Good morning! Good morning. Yes, they manufacture

:51:50. > :51:52.these things. These are the kinds of nuts and bolts they used to hold

:51:53. > :52:00.skyscrapers and subsea operations together. You can see Stuart who is

:52:01. > :52:05.making a bolts. He has worked here for about 20 years and he told me

:52:06. > :52:08.how things have changed as it moved through the generations. This

:52:09. > :52:12.company employs 15 people. Five of them are family members. Unmanned

:52:13. > :52:18.dad and their three sons. We will meet them later. -- mum and dad. As

:52:19. > :52:23.it has passed through the generations the son, John, changed

:52:24. > :52:26.the business to make it more specialist because they were

:52:27. > :52:30.struggling to compete with China, with all of the must -- mass

:52:31. > :52:39.produced nuts and bolts. Good morning. We have the bosses of the

:52:40. > :52:43.company here, mum and dad Clare and John. What was it like to take over

:52:44. > :52:47.from your dad? It was great to work with him for ten years before he

:52:48. > :52:52.retired. I learnt a lot from him. There was a big way, shoulders, to

:52:53. > :52:56.keep the business going and the family name going. So that's been a

:52:57. > :53:01.driving force for the past almost 30 years. For you, you were an engineer

:53:02. > :53:05.and then decided to join the business after the kids got older?

:53:06. > :53:10.That's right. I was an engineer before I met John and that's how we

:53:11. > :53:16.met, through... A blind date, I believe? It was! That's how we met,

:53:17. > :53:21.through that. What's it like, running a family business, cause

:53:22. > :53:26.you've obviously got all of your lads here and your husband. Is it

:53:27. > :53:30.manageable? What's it like at home? It is very challenging at times.

:53:31. > :53:34.When we've had a difficult day, we do tend to take it home, but at

:53:35. > :53:41.other times it can be very rewarding as well. To have we got here? This

:53:42. > :53:50.is Jack, my eldest son, Thomas, my middle son, and Max, who is over

:53:51. > :53:54.there. They are still teenagers! We never really encouraged them to join

:53:55. > :53:58.the business but it has always been part of their daily life. Whenever

:53:59. > :54:02.we went home and had dinner with would-be talking about the oil rigs

:54:03. > :54:07.with just delivered to all the skyscrapers or even film production

:54:08. > :54:11.studios, so that always been so involved and so excited that it was

:54:12. > :54:15.almost a matter of progression for them to join once they left school.

:54:16. > :54:20.We are going to meet the youngest now. Max is 16. You've just joined

:54:21. > :54:26.and you are doing an apprenticeship. How is it going? Going good, thanks.

:54:27. > :54:31.I just started last week. What's it like working with the family? Good.

:54:32. > :54:35.I've sometimes they have a joke with me because I have just started. One

:54:36. > :54:41.day do you want to be the boss? Definitely! I will let you crack on.

:54:42. > :54:45.We have been talking this week about family businesses and we've seen

:54:46. > :54:51.some fantastic ones. So many amazing pictures. But there are of course

:54:52. > :54:54.challenges as well. You've done some research on this. Good morning. Tell

:54:55. > :54:59.us a bit about the challenges. There are lots of elements to this.

:55:00. > :55:04.Definitely. One of the big challenges facing family firms

:55:05. > :55:07.revolves around succession planning. Many family businesses struggle to

:55:08. > :55:10.identify who they can pass the business on to and when they will be

:55:11. > :55:15.ready. The other challenges around strategic planning. A long-term

:55:16. > :55:19.vision may be in place but they are not sure how to reach that goal. In

:55:20. > :55:23.the survey results we issued last year, those were the key areas. It's

:55:24. > :55:27.interesting what John was saying about how his strategy for the

:55:28. > :55:31.business changed when he knew his sons were going to join. It's really

:55:32. > :55:34.key when you know your children are interested that you start to think

:55:35. > :55:38.about how you get them ready and prepared them to take on the role

:55:39. > :55:42.and be very supportive and give them the education and really leadership

:55:43. > :55:45.support that they need. There is criticism about productivity in

:55:46. > :55:52.family business. There have been. It's interesting. Our survey results

:55:53. > :55:55.point to some challenges around innovation, how you bring in

:55:56. > :55:59.additional technology to take your business forward and looking at

:56:00. > :56:04.succession planning and how it can impact productivity. But that

:56:05. > :56:07.doesn't show the contribution family businesses make to the global and UK

:56:08. > :56:11.economy and that shouldn't be underestimated. Thanks ever so much

:56:12. > :56:16.joining us. Really interesting to see it all being put together and

:56:17. > :56:19.the family dynamics are amazing. Thank you again for all of those

:56:20. > :56:25.wonderful pictures. You will hear from me in about one hour.

:56:26. > :56:32.Thank you. It's been so interesting looking at all of these family

:56:33. > :56:34.businesses. Thank you for sending in all of your pictures.

:04:39. > :04:43.for them to take charge of this incredible vessel, in the home of

:05:04. > :05:05.a couple of years' time, does have its critics because of those costs

:05:06. > :05:07.and the young player role according to those critics this kind of

:05:08. > :05:10.firepower will be deployed for. We have had the minister, Harriet

:05:11. > :05:13.Baldwin, saying it is clear, Britain is a trading power that needs this

:05:14. > :05:18.military back-up to back-up the presence around the world. This week

:05:19. > :05:21.we celebrated the anniversary of the partition of India and a retreat

:06:14. > :06:17.real clarity, doesn't it? This issue is occupying minds from Belfast to

:06:18. > :06:20.Brussels how do you keep the Irish border open question at the moment

:06:21. > :06:25.you drive across the frontier and hardly notice it is therefore that

:06:26. > :06:28.there are no immigration controls, no passport checks or customs posts.

:06:29. > :06:35.Everyone involved in the Brexit processor that should stay that way.

:06:36. > :06:39.How do you get around the fact the UK is outside the customs union and

:06:40. > :06:43.the Republic of Ireland inside? There have been a couple of ideas.

:06:44. > :06:47.There could be a future customs partnership where the tariffs on

:06:48. > :06:52.goods would stay the same between the UK and the EU, meaning there is

:06:53. > :06:57.no need for customs posts. They also talk about the possibility of a

:07:01. > :07:03.that customs authorities can see what goods are crossing the border

:07:04. > :07:05.back and forth. No one is pretending that coming up with a system like

:07:06. > :07:09.that is going to be easy. Donald Trump has faced renewed

:12:55. > :13:11.the programme in a moment, Men are better because they are

:13:12. > :13:16.stronger and they have more jobs. I think I would describe a girl as

:13:17. > :13:26.pretty, lipstick, dresses, love hearts. Boys can only do football.

:13:27. > :13:30.Why is that? They are fitter and stronger. I think strong as a boy

:13:31. > :13:35.word because they can fight lots of people. He was more important, girls

:13:36. > :13:42.or boys? Boys because they can protect girls more. Men are more

:13:43. > :13:47.successful because they can have harder jobs and earn more. I think

:13:48. > :13:56.men are better at it like being in charge. I think boys are cleverer

:13:57. > :14:01.than girls because they get into President easily, don't know?

:14:02. > :14:13.You have been part of this programme. You are a doctor. This

:14:14. > :14:17.programme is about trying to deemphasise anything that tells the

:14:18. > :14:21.children now different and apart. Treating boys and girls equally so

:14:22. > :14:27.that they grow up believing that they can achieve anything and not be

:14:28. > :14:30.limited by their gender. You are not ignoring the obvious biological

:14:31. > :14:34.differences, are you? Trying to remove those stereotypes is what the

:14:35. > :14:41.programme is about. It is about gender stereotyping. It touches on

:14:42. > :14:44.nature, nurture discussions. It is a complex subject. We will never tease

:14:45. > :14:49.out what is more dominant and what is the winner in that tension. We

:14:50. > :14:52.are in control of how we nurture our children and it is important

:14:53. > :14:57.therefore, what we are saying here, to give each child the fullest

:14:58. > :15:02.chance to develop in a whole way and not to limit what they can learn by

:15:03. > :15:08.giving them certain toys, or certain clothing, or certain messages. I

:15:09. > :15:13.have watched the programme. One of the experiments you do is putting

:15:14. > :15:21.two babies, a boy and a girl in the opposite clothes and giving them to

:15:22. > :15:24.do carers to play with. This is an age old, classic experiment. The

:15:25. > :15:29.adult changes their behaviour according to the clothing that that

:15:30. > :15:34.child is wearing. They believe the child is a male and so only reach

:15:35. > :15:40.for male toys for the child and tried to move the child away from

:15:41. > :15:45.dolls, for example. What that displays is that adults imprint on

:15:46. > :15:49.children what they expect that child to behave according to their sex.

:15:50. > :15:55.One is that why you have give me a pony and Louise has the car? We have

:15:56. > :15:58.these for a real purpose. We took them out and about in Manchester to

:15:59. > :16:00.see whether boys or girls would rather play with a pony or Louise's

:16:01. > :16:11.R. So, which one of these toys

:16:12. > :16:14.would you prefer to play with? This is fun to play

:16:15. > :16:20.with because you can have races and this is fun if you want to do it

:16:21. > :16:23.on your own. The girl would like to play

:16:24. > :17:02.with this because it is beautiful The poor unicorn! I thought it was a

:17:03. > :17:05.pony! It is interesting, what were the most pertinent things you found

:17:06. > :17:13.that we might need to look at? It was the results, we found that the

:17:14. > :17:17.girls undervalued themselves, they have less confidence when compared

:17:18. > :17:22.to the boys and perceived their own intelligence to be less than the

:17:23. > :17:25.boys. The boys emotional Robert Eddery to use how they described how

:17:26. > :17:31.they feel was far less than the girls and their social empathy --

:17:32. > :17:37.emotional vocabulary. These differences we are saying can be

:17:38. > :17:41.deemphasised, they ought to be deemphasised by giving them the

:17:42. > :17:46.fullest chance. Roy said his granddaughter is a complete tomboy

:17:47. > :17:51.and proves that gender stereotyping does not exist or is ineffective.

:17:52. > :17:59.Mike says his boys and killed both play with cars and dolls. -- boys

:18:00. > :18:03.and girls. Doug said gender neutral toys will not bridge the gap,

:18:04. > :18:08.parents buying the toys will, children will play with any toys. I

:18:09. > :18:14.remember sitting in a big cardboard box and my imagination did the rest!

:18:19. > :18:25.Let us know what you think about that and anything else we are

:18:26. > :18:27.covering. Here's Carol with a look

:18:28. > :18:40.at this morning's weather. Good morning. It is a lovely start

:18:41. > :18:43.for some of us. This picture from West Yorkshire, a bit of cloud

:18:44. > :18:48.around but it will break late and we will see some sunshine and we have

:18:49. > :18:53.some rain coming in already from the rest across Northern Ireland which

:18:54. > :18:59.will move slowly eastwards. That is courtesy of this weather front

:19:00. > :19:04.attached to the low pressure. It will be quite a blustery day, Windy

:19:05. > :19:09.through the Irish Sea and western Scotland, a dry start in the centre

:19:10. > :19:13.and East, the loud breaking up through the day. And then the rain

:19:14. > :19:16.comes in through Northern Ireland and the Irish Sea across parts of

:19:17. > :19:22.South West England and West Wales. Some of it will be heavy. The cloud

:19:23. > :19:27.will build a head it but what of dry weather across most of England until

:19:28. > :19:32.we reach the North West when we see the rain showing its hand by 4pm.

:19:33. > :19:37.Behind it in Northern Ireland some showers and the rain advances across

:19:38. > :19:40.Scotland, not quite reaching the far north-east. Again, some of the rain

:19:41. > :19:48.will be heavy, particularly with some height. In the sunshine it will

:19:49. > :19:52.feel nice, 23 Celsius, but in the cloud and rain and the noticeable

:19:53. > :19:57.breeze, it will feel that bit cooler. Through the evening and

:19:58. > :20:01.overnight, the rain advances steadily eastwards towards the North

:20:02. > :20:05.Sea but we will be left with a hang back through eastern and central

:20:06. > :20:10.England, the South East and South Coast and showery in the Channel

:20:11. > :20:15.Islands. In the West, some clearer skies and in sheltered glens it will

:20:16. > :20:18.be a cold start, rather like this morning but in the sunshine tomorrow

:20:19. > :20:23.the temperatures were picked up quickly. And with the clearer skies

:20:24. > :20:29.we will start with the sunshine but often goes the rain, leaving some

:20:30. > :20:34.cloud, the showers will develop. They will be hit and miss, you might

:20:35. > :20:44.not catch one and stay dry and in the sunshine, 21-23 degrees. Heading

:20:45. > :20:51.through Friday, low-pressure still driving the weather which means a

:20:52. > :20:54.showery scenario, and it'll be quite blustery, especially in this central

:20:55. > :21:00.part of the country. You will notice it. Some of the showers will merge

:21:01. > :21:05.so some will be heavy but not all others will catch them. Further

:21:06. > :21:12.south it should be a drier day and in the sunshine again it will get up

:21:13. > :21:17.to 21 Celsius. You can see also some rain in the north-east of Scotland.

:21:18. > :21:27.For the weekend, breezy, some sunshine and showers. On Sunday it

:21:28. > :21:30.looks like some rain could come into the north-west but there are a lot

:21:31. > :21:35.of festivals this weekend so if you are in the south it will be dry but

:21:36. > :21:38.further north you are more likely to see some showers.

:21:39. > :21:43.Thousands of people have welcomed Britain's biggest ever warship

:21:44. > :21:46.But the HMS Queen Elizabeth's first deployment

:21:47. > :21:51.Though helicopters have been landing on the deck, it will be another

:21:52. > :21:53.year before the new F35s will begin flight trials.

:21:54. > :21:55.We can talk now to Colonel Phil Kelly,

:21:56. > :21:59.He's the strike commander controlling all jets for

:22:00. > :22:16.And also by Commodore Andrew Burton, commander of the UK strike group.

:22:17. > :22:21.Thank you for joining us. Could you tell us what your role will be

:22:22. > :22:28.regarding the rather large ship behind you? I end the strike warfare

:22:29. > :22:33.command so I look after everything that flies and walks off the ship in

:22:34. > :22:40.terms of the projections and defence of the carrier. We are looking

:22:41. > :22:48.forward to integrating the lightning to F35B strike fighter next year.

:22:49. > :22:52.And Commodore, your role? My role is to command the whole task group so I

:22:53. > :22:58.will be embarked in HMS Queen Elizabeth or in time the Prince of

:22:59. > :23:02.Wales, coordinating the Orchestra of frigates, destroyers, submarines,

:23:03. > :23:06.support ships, Rotary and fixed wing helicopters to protect the carrier

:23:07. > :23:10.and enable us to manoeuvre all around the world to project

:23:11. > :23:14.influence and if necessary power wherever it may be required. And

:23:15. > :23:20.from your perspective, today seems like a significant day for the Royal

:23:21. > :23:24.Navy. It is a tremendous day, for the Royal Navy and for Portsmouth

:23:25. > :23:28.and a strategic date for the UK. It is a milestone in our path to

:23:29. > :23:33.regenerate the capability to deploy ships of this scale with a huge

:23:34. > :23:39.variety of assets embarked. It is a defence at it. The joint lightning

:23:40. > :23:43.ports, airports, Royal Navy personnel together to deliver this

:23:44. > :23:47.fifth generation fighter at the centre of it but the importance of

:23:48. > :23:53.the manoeuvrability of a maritime task group to travel wherever is

:23:54. > :23:57.required around the world to do Her Majesty's governments bidding. Can

:23:58. > :24:02.you tell us a bit about the F35? It has been tested in America and the

:24:03. > :24:07.defence minister was saying by 2023 the ship will be fully operational.

:24:08. > :24:14.What can it do and what will it bring to the Royal Navy? The F35 is

:24:15. > :24:20.an exceptional fifth generation strike fighter. We have pilots

:24:21. > :24:25.flying the super Hornet with the US Navy which has similar capabilities

:24:26. > :24:29.that we will introduce into service. The F35 is a game changer in my view

:24:30. > :24:34.having flown the Sea Harrier in the past, it will have real teeth to the

:24:35. > :24:38.strike group. It looks really impressive, I am sure you are aware

:24:39. > :24:43.of some of the criticism that has been levelled at this ship. Partly

:24:44. > :24:47.because of the cost and also asking about what the role will be, and

:24:48. > :24:53.some have said that it seems that role is unclear, questioning the

:24:54. > :24:59.need for a vessel like this. If you could answer those criticisms. I

:25:00. > :25:02.think the ship of this size, the scale is its greatest strength, the

:25:03. > :25:08.buzz ability to adapt through life, and it will be in a service for 50

:25:09. > :25:13.years, -- the versatility. It gives choice to our political masters in

:25:14. > :25:17.terms of whether we wish to respond to a recent humanitarian disaster or

:25:18. > :25:22.engaged in a top end conflict. As a permanent member of the UN Security

:25:23. > :25:26.Council it is firmly the right thing for the UK to be doing and for the

:25:27. > :25:31.Royal Navy is at the centre of our strategic development. And on the

:25:32. > :25:37.cost issue? I think these carriers are real value for money, we have

:25:38. > :25:41.bought two for the price of one with the same deck area so we have good

:25:42. > :25:45.value for money and the intent to get the returns on the investment

:25:46. > :25:49.that the taxpayer has put into this programme. We have been hearing a

:25:50. > :25:58.lot of facts and statistics, how big it is and how many minis you could

:25:59. > :26:02.park on top of it, not sure why we are interested in that but give us

:26:03. > :26:06.an idea of the scale of the ship insight and the capabilities and how

:26:07. > :26:09.many people will be on it and what sort of work it needs to do

:26:10. > :26:18.practically looking after all those crewmembers? The core ship's company

:26:19. > :26:26.is around 700 but she has space for 1600. When the ship is fully loaded

:26:27. > :26:31.with up to 36 lightning 2 fast jets, most of the banks will be full but

:31:49. > :31:52.as you can see this morning, by a wide range of assets,

:31:53. > :31:56.both from the air and from the sea, so it's important to emphasise that,

:31:57. > :31:59.of course, she will have a wide range of systems.

:32:00. > :32:03.For obvious reasons, and you've just cited one of them,

:33:12. > :33:16.side that was also very violent, and nobody wants to say that, but I'll

:33:17. > :33:19.say it right now. You had a group on the other side that came charging in

:36:13. > :36:20.I'm thankful I'm alive so, even if something happens that seems bad, I

:36:21. > :36:22.try to lift my head up and think, it's OK, it's not the end of the

:36:23. > :36:22.world. Just a few hours after escaping

:36:46. > :37:05.Hendry and TV presenter Do you remember this stage last

:37:06. > :37:12.year? My goodness, it was so stressful. What happened in your

:37:13. > :37:19.first programme? I made a hamburger. Come on! Guaranteed route to the

:37:20. > :37:23.final! And nobody else made one. What did you dress it with? It was

:37:24. > :37:27.one of those things where you go to the kitchen and they say, make

:37:28. > :37:31.something inspired by an American diner and they give you lots of

:37:32. > :37:36.ingredients including steak, but I had seen a mincer so I made a

:37:37. > :37:47.burger. Take it to the next level! Are you celebrating? I am! Never too

:37:48. > :37:49.early for a burger. Liverpool, one foot in the group stage of the

:37:50. > :37:54.Champions League after a win last night. They played well and one

:37:55. > :37:58.player has announced himself on the big stage. It was a fantastic

:37:59. > :38:04.performance from them and a dream European debut for man in

:38:05. > :38:08.particular. Liverpool are flying at the moment and they are looking good

:38:09. > :38:13.in Europe in particular. If they can progress, Jurgen Klopp will be

:38:14. > :38:14.happy. We'll see if they can do it in the Premier League.

:38:15. > :38:16.What a night for 18-year-old right back.

:38:17. > :38:18.It was his free kick that opened the scoring.

:38:19. > :38:20.Liverpool had chances to add to their lead,

:38:21. > :38:23.it wasn't until late in the game they managed it, James Milner's

:38:24. > :38:27.Hoffenheim pulled one back but trail 2-1 heading

:38:28. > :38:35.Afterwards Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp said he'd played a part

:38:36. > :38:40.That was actually because I told him he has to do it, so I don't

:38:41. > :38:44.want to have to credit for the free kick, because he's the only one that

:38:45. > :38:53.I said it a few times, because I watched as many U23 games

:38:54. > :38:56.last year as I could and, when he played there,

:38:57. > :38:59.he already took the free kicks in a goal that's a similar size,

:39:00. > :39:16.To show how far trend has come, Jamie Carragher posted this picture

:39:17. > :39:22.of Trent when he was and 11-year-old mascot. If he keeps scoring goals

:39:23. > :39:24.like that, he could well emulate the career of Jamie Carragher.

:39:25. > :39:27.Everton have agreed a deal to sign Swansea City midfielder

:39:28. > :39:30.Gylfi Sigurdsson for a fee of around ?45 million.

:39:31. > :39:33.The Iceland international will have a medical today

:39:55. > :39:56.Britain's Johanna Konta's is into the third round of

:39:57. > :39:58.the Cincinatti Open after beating Kiki Bertens of the Netherlands.

:39:59. > :40:01.Konta, who's the world number seven, broke the Dutch woman

:40:02. > :40:03.early in the first set, but came back from a break

:40:04. > :40:07.She'll play Alize Cornet of France next as she continues her

:40:08. > :40:09.preparation for the final grand slam of the year.

:40:10. > :40:12.Tiger Woods had five different drugs in his system when he was arrested

:40:13. > :40:14.on suspicion of driving under the influence in May.

:40:15. > :40:17.A urine test revealed a mixture of strong painkillers,

:40:18. > :40:27.The 14-time major winner pleaded not guilty to the charge last week.

:40:28. > :40:28.There was an extraordinary, record-breaking performance

:40:29. > :40:31.from Susie Bates as she helped the Southern Vipers to a comfortable

:40:32. > :40:34.46-run victory over Loughbrough Lightning in the women's

:40:35. > :40:39.Bates became the first player in the competition's short history

:40:40. > :40:42.to reach three figures as she made 119 not out as part

:40:43. > :40:45.of a total of 180 - the highest Super League score yet.

:40:46. > :40:51.And finally a lot of cricketers fancy themselves as decent

:40:52. > :40:56.Well, we've found one who can back it up.

:40:57. > :41:03.This is Derbyshire's Hardus Vilyern, a strapping South African fast

:41:04. > :41:05.bowler who also possesses great feet, which he used

:41:06. > :41:12.to great effect to run out Durham's Michael Richardson.

:41:13. > :41:17.That's the type of thing you could practice time and time again and it

:41:18. > :41:24.would never come off but, the one time he did it there, it did. In

:41:25. > :41:28.fairness, he's a big guy was bending down to pick it up, you'll lose

:41:29. > :41:30.valuable seconds. Is timing is immaculate.

:41:46. > :41:51.They both struggled after the traumatic events,

:41:52. > :41:57.and have shared their stories with us.

:41:58. > :42:01.All of a sudden there was just a huge bang.

:42:02. > :42:06.You could feel it shake underneath your feet.

:42:07. > :42:08.People just started running and screaming.

:42:09. > :42:16.I think the initial reaction was just to get out

:42:17. > :42:24.My next exam was the next day after the concert.

:42:25. > :42:28.So I was really tired because I didn't get much sleep.

:42:29. > :42:31.I was due to do my last exam on the Friday after it happened,

:42:32. > :42:34.and I thought, give it a few days and see.

:42:35. > :42:44.I got there, I opened the paper and tried to do the first question,

:42:45. > :42:46.I kept reading the same question but I couldn't comprehend what was

:42:47. > :42:50.I just kept thinking about the night before,

:42:51. > :42:52.and I just asked, please, can I leave?

:42:53. > :42:56.I couldn't pluck up enough courage and I couldn't get myself

:42:57. > :43:08.At first I felt like I couldn't do anything, but then we were given

:43:09. > :43:11.the opportunity to sing at the concert.

:43:12. > :43:14.It was an amazing experience and we got to raise so much

:43:15. > :43:20.money, and it is just a really good feeling.

:43:21. > :43:22.It was nice being part of something really special.

:43:23. > :43:24.We were fortunate enough to get out unharmed,

:43:25. > :43:27.we want to do what we can for the people that didn't

:43:28. > :43:32.It has been a really pivotal moment in my life.

:43:33. > :43:35.I know this is something that is a huge part of my

:43:36. > :43:46.So even if something happens that seems bad,

:43:47. > :43:50.I just kind of lift my head up and think, it's OK, it's not

:43:51. > :44:02.I think I was a lot more stressed before the concert,

:44:03. > :44:04.and I think afterwards it really put everything into perspective.

:44:05. > :44:07.It teaches you not to stress about the little things as much.

:44:08. > :44:10.One of the most important things is to keep your loved ones close

:44:11. > :44:13.and be happy and grab every single opportunity that comes to you.

:44:14. > :44:16.As long as you know you've tried hard, it doesn't really matter

:44:17. > :44:20.As long as you've put your best in and you know that you've

:44:21. > :44:28.done everything you can, then you don't need to worry at all.

:44:29. > :44:36.Good luck to those impressive young people. It's good that they feel

:44:37. > :44:41.comfortable to talk about it so openly and honestly now. Thank you

:44:42. > :44:44.to both of them. We will go back to Portsmouth in a couple of minutes to

:44:45. > :44:51.look at HMS Queen Elizabeth, but first the weather.

:44:52. > :44:55.Look at this beautiful weather watchers picture sent in this

:44:56. > :45:01.morning from East Yorkshire, and another one from West Yorkshire. A

:45:02. > :45:05.lovely start to the day here. For many parts, a lovely start with some

:45:06. > :45:08.high cloud around. In the west and Northern Ireland, there is already

:45:09. > :45:13.some rain, which is very slowly going to be moving east through the

:45:14. > :45:17.day, courtesy of this area of low pressure. If you look at this

:45:18. > :45:22.squeeze on the isobars, it's telling you that, in the north-western slice

:45:23. > :45:26.of the country, it will be quite windy, particularly exposed areas in

:45:27. > :45:32.the Irish Sea and the west coast of Scotland. A lot of dry weather

:45:33. > :45:36.initially, some high cloud thinning and breaking allowing sunshine, and

:45:37. > :45:40.the rain moving in across the south-west of England and western

:45:41. > :45:45.Wales. Later, some of that could be heavy. Cloud will build ahead of

:45:46. > :45:49.this. The further east you are, the more likely you are to hang warm

:45:50. > :45:54.sunshine. That prevailed on way up to Northumberland. The rain moving

:45:55. > :45:58.into north-west England, leaving showers behind. That same band of

:45:59. > :46:03.rain moving across much of Scotland, but not request -- not quite the

:46:04. > :46:10.north-east Lothian and the borders. If you are in the sunshine, it will

:46:11. > :46:14.feel nice, high up to 23 but, in the wind and rain, it will feel cooler,

:46:15. > :46:18.and temperatures are lower anyway. This evening and overnight, this

:46:19. > :46:25.band of rain continues to move steadily towards the North Sea. You

:46:26. > :46:28.can see we have a hang back across eastern, central and south eastern

:46:29. > :46:32.England, dangling down into the Channel Islands, and some of that

:46:33. > :46:36.into the south-west. West of that, there will be some coastal drizzle

:46:37. > :46:41.and showers but, inland, the cloud will break and it will be chilly,

:46:42. > :46:45.particularly in sheltered glens, rather like this morning. Tomorrow

:46:46. > :46:50.in the sunshine, temperatures will pick up quite quickly. The band of

:46:51. > :46:53.rain continues to edge off into the near constant, clearing the

:46:54. > :46:57.south-east and the Channel Islands and leaving a bit of clarity in its

:46:58. > :47:00.wake initially, but any of that will break and we will see sunshine and

:47:01. > :47:02.showers, some of which will be heavy, but many of us will miss them

:47:03. > :47:07.stay dry and in the sunshine. Low pressure is still in charge and

:47:08. > :47:10.that HMS Queen Elizabeth,

:47:11. > :47:40.Britain's biggest warship, docked in its home port

:47:41. > :47:45.of Portsmouth within the last hour. We can talk now to Vice

:47:46. > :47:52.Admiral Simon Lister. You must have been waiting for this

:47:53. > :47:59.day for a long time, how significant is it? A very important day for the

:48:00. > :48:03.Royal Navy and British industry, we are delighted to see Queen Elizabeth

:48:04. > :48:10.behind me here in Portsmouth which will be our home base for the next

:48:11. > :48:16.50 years. Tell us about why we need an aircraft carrier like this. You

:48:17. > :48:21.can see the scale of the ship, it represents a piece of real estate,

:48:22. > :48:30.the government can deploy around the world to areas of threat or concern

:48:31. > :48:32.or indeed for humanitarian relief. It has enormous capability regarding

:48:33. > :48:38.intelligence gathering and being able to transmit that information

:48:39. > :48:43.back to the UK. And I think mainly you should consider her to be a

:48:44. > :48:49.major strategic conventional deterrence effect around the world.

:48:50. > :48:58.At the behest of the government. We know these jets, they can't be

:48:59. > :49:05.deployed on her yet, when will they be ready to go? The carrier is in

:49:06. > :49:08.the build process and she hasn't been accepted from build at the

:49:09. > :49:12.moment and the carrier is not ready to receive the Jets, that will

:49:13. > :49:16.happen at the end of next year. But the Jets are building and we have 11

:49:17. > :49:20.already in our possession in the United States where our pilots and

:49:21. > :49:25.engineers are getting used to operating them and maintaining them

:49:26. > :49:29.and we will marry the aircraft and the ship as the capability of each

:49:30. > :49:35.builds in the coming couple of years. We expect to create full

:49:36. > :49:43.operational capability for the carrier by 2023 and we will have the

:49:44. > :49:49.initial capability in 2021. She could then be deployed in 2021 as

:49:50. > :49:58.far as things go? The carrier will be ready for operations of one form

:49:59. > :50:01.or another from 2021 onwards and we will tailor the capability, the

:50:02. > :50:07.number of aircraft and the type available on the carrier, to the

:50:08. > :50:11.mission she is being allocated but from 2021 the carrier will have some

:50:12. > :50:17.form of operational capability that the government will be able to use.

:50:18. > :50:23.The Russians have called her a sitting duck, what do you make of

:50:24. > :50:28.that? Well, I spent four years in Russia of my career and I'm not

:50:29. > :50:33.surprised that they might say that. She is definitely not a sitting

:50:34. > :50:35.duck. She is perfectly capable of looking after herself and when

:50:36. > :50:39.deployed she will be accompanied by the very potent frigates and

:50:40. > :50:47.destroyers that are in the Royal Navy today. People are asking

:50:48. > :50:55.questions, you know it went over budget, and questions about cost.

:50:56. > :51:00.Yes, whilst I'm sure everyone sees the cost at ?6.2 billion for the two

:51:01. > :51:05.carriers as a very large number, and it is a large number, but compared

:51:06. > :51:09.to other aircraft carriers around the world she represents good value

:51:10. > :51:16.for money. Since we reset the contract in 2013, and that history

:51:17. > :51:21.is well known, the programme has run well and we are doing all we can

:51:22. > :51:26.within industry to keep within our allocated budget and to deliver the

:51:27. > :51:28.ship on time. Her arrival in Portsmouth today after a successful

:51:29. > :51:35.period of trials there is witness to that programme running rather well.

:51:36. > :51:39.-- bears witness. The Prime Minister will be visiting at some point

:51:40. > :51:46.today, if you were showing a visitor, what are you most proud of?

:51:47. > :51:50.I'm most proud of the way that the ships company and industry have come

:51:51. > :51:56.together in the last nine months to bring this platform out of the place

:51:57. > :52:00.where she was built, and to bring the ship to life and successfully

:52:01. > :52:05.operate her in and around the coast of the UK over the last six weeks on

:52:06. > :52:09.sea trials, and I would introduce her to be people who are responsible

:52:10. > :52:13.for that and then I would show her features of the awesome capability,

:52:14. > :52:20.the flight deck, the hanger and the operation's room and the ability of

:52:21. > :52:23.the platform to dominate an area of the maritime environment is awesome

:52:24. > :52:30.and I would want her to see that before she left. Thanks for joining

:52:31. > :52:32.us. We can clearly see the craft carrier behind you. It looks very

:52:33. > :52:35.impressive. The naval historian and defence

:52:36. > :52:42.analyst Professor Eric Grove Listening to various voices this

:52:43. > :52:50.morning saying what a big day this is for the world may -- for the

:52:51. > :52:57.Royal Navy, and this will be part of the fleet for the next 50 years?

:52:58. > :53:00.Yes, they moved from 2020 22021 in terms of the operational capability,

:53:01. > :53:07.things always move to the right, I fear, but she could operate in

:53:08. > :53:15.certain roles in 21, but they are saying 23 because that is when they

:53:16. > :53:24.will be two squadrons of F35s. She has a fantastic capability. -- when

:53:25. > :53:28.there will be. You have visited? I have climbed all over her she is

:53:29. > :53:34.very big indeed. What is it like? Imagine a very large cruise ship

:53:35. > :53:40.without the decorations and furniture, she has a huge hanger and

:53:41. > :53:44.a very large flight deck and she has very wide companion rates,

:53:45. > :53:48.corridors, because she can carry 250 commandos and they have to be able

:53:49. > :53:52.to move with their packs and they demand by helicopter. One of the

:53:53. > :53:55.impressive things when I looked around, I was with three American

:53:56. > :54:02.admirals and they were very impressed and they said they thought

:54:03. > :54:11.we had got it right, better than them, we had come up with a totally

:54:12. > :54:14.new hull, and when three American admirals say that ours is better

:54:15. > :54:19.than theirs, they are worth listening to. Simon refer to what

:54:20. > :54:23.the Russians made of it, and some have said there is a bit of envy. --

:54:24. > :54:38.Simon preferred. So might delete the Russian said it is a easy naval

:54:39. > :54:43.target. That is nonsense, the Russians are talking of building a

:54:44. > :54:48.new aircraft carrier and there it existing aircraft carrier smokes

:54:49. > :54:58.around the world at the moment -- their existing. When this is at sea

:54:59. > :55:04.a fighter group around it, just try it on. -- with a fighter group

:55:05. > :55:08.around it. I don't think I will! LAUGHTER

:55:09. > :55:11.So many people involved in the building, the ship will have a big

:55:12. > :55:18.impact on Portsmouth as well. She's a great UK asset, built all over

:55:19. > :55:21.Britain, Scotland, the West Coast, the East Coast, the investment has

:55:22. > :55:26.been very important to help the shipbuilding industry. It is not

:55:27. > :55:31.?3.1 billion spent for nothing, it is investing in industry and paying

:55:32. > :55:35.workers and so on and so she is a great economic asset as well as

:55:36. > :55:42.being an enormous military and strategic asset. It has been a great

:55:43. > :55:47.privilege watching it. After having a look round, we have heard about

:55:48. > :55:52.the facts and figures, being able to bake a thousand lives a day, did you

:55:53. > :55:58.have a look at the kitchens? -- thousand loaves. The kitchens were

:55:59. > :56:03.being built when I was there. But she is very impressive. Very large

:56:04. > :56:08.and if anyone has the chance to go on board, do it, they will be

:56:09. > :56:10.impressed, and I'm so praised people have noticed how impressive she is

:56:11. > :56:20.and what a fantastic national asset she is. Enough food on board for

:56:21. > :56:25.1600 people for 45 days, apparently. Those helicopters can operate

:56:26. > :56:29.virtually now when she is commissioned so she could go to sea

:56:30. > :56:37.as an anti-submarine ship very rapidly. Dipping sonar helicopters

:56:38. > :56:45.are formidable threats to even the most powerful submarine. I love your

:56:46. > :56:48.knowledge and enthusiasm. The concerns which we have voiced this

:56:49. > :56:56.morning are about cost and finding the role for it. Absolutely. It is a

:56:57. > :57:00.shame she wasn't in service earlier, but that is because of programming

:57:01. > :57:04.and it is also very complex, to get the computers working is very

:57:05. > :57:09.difficult. I know you are very excited, but we have got to leave.

:57:10. > :57:11.Thank you. All this week we've been looking

:57:12. > :57:19.at family businesses. Today, Steph is getting to the nuts

:57:20. > :57:22.and bolts of the challenges facing smaller firms -

:57:23. > :57:33.she's with a manufacturer Stewart is here, working on this

:57:34. > :57:37.machine, they make things like this, the nuts and bolts of businesses,

:57:38. > :57:42.these are the kind of things you would see used to hold up

:57:43. > :57:48.skyscrapers and oil rigs, things like that, important stuff, but this

:57:49. > :57:53.is a family business, and Stuart has been working here for about 20

:57:54. > :57:58.years. He has seen the changes as a different generation of the family

:57:59. > :58:01.has taken the business over. 15 people work here, five from the same

:58:02. > :58:09.family, and this has been going since this 1970s but it has had to

:58:10. > :58:12.diversify. Initially they were produced the nuts and bolts, that

:58:13. > :58:16.you might have in your shed, but they realised the Chinese could make

:58:17. > :58:22.them cheaper so they invested in more kit to make it more specialist.

:58:23. > :58:31.We can meet the family. Mum Claire is one of the bosses. We have maxed

:58:32. > :58:37.the youngest, 16, Thomas, 17, and Jack is not in -- Max the youngest.

:58:38. > :58:43.John, as well. You took the business over from your father? Yes, he

:58:44. > :58:49.started the business in 1971 and I was involved when I was 16 and I

:58:50. > :58:53.have been involved in the 30 years. He told me a lot about the business,

:58:54. > :58:57.and I changed it and became very specialised about 15 years ago and

:58:58. > :59:01.then I will pass it over to these youngsters as they grow into the

:59:02. > :59:06.business. Your strategy for the business has changed since the lads

:59:07. > :59:11.became part of the team. Yes, the focus is on building for the next

:59:12. > :59:15.30-40 years, rather than just seeing me out of my retirement, so this is

:59:16. > :59:22.a focus on reinforcing the business dying for the next couple of

:59:23. > :59:27.decades. -- the business name. We always destined to work the

:59:28. > :59:31.business? Yes, leaving school, I wanted to come and work it with my

:59:32. > :59:36.mum and dad and I learn something everyday. You are doing an

:59:37. > :59:39.apprenticeship? I started last September and I'm looking to finish

:59:40. > :59:46.this September and carry on with the business from there. One day, who is

:59:47. > :59:54.going to be boss? Me, definitely. What do you reckon? Claire, what is

:59:55. > :59:58.it like? You are one of the bosses, how do you keep the dynamic between

:59:59. > :00:05.your boys being your family and also working for you. Before they came

:00:06. > :00:09.and work with us, when we came to work it is work, but when we are at

:00:10. > :00:13.home it is home, so we still have the family life at home. Being

:00:14. > :00:18.professional and working together here at the business. Is it nice

:00:19. > :00:26.having them? Do you get sick of seeing them? No. It is wonderful, we

:00:27. > :00:30.have each other's back and we look out for each other, so it is

:00:31. > :00:34.brilliant, we have got the support from each other. I want to be in

:00:35. > :00:39.your family, is there room for another one? Thank you. Lovely to

:00:40. > :00:45.meet you all. We are going to go through here. We have been talking

:00:46. > :00:49.about family businesses and how great success stories like this one,

:00:50. > :00:55.but also challenges that businesses face because they are family run.

:00:56. > :01:02.Tell us a bit about the challenges. The family business survey we

:01:03. > :01:07.released last year, a couple of areas around succession planning,

:01:08. > :01:11.many family firms finding it difficult to come up with a good

:01:12. > :01:16.succession plan to pass the business down, and also strategy. Family

:01:17. > :01:21.businesses have a clear plan about their long-term vision, but how they

:01:22. > :01:26.get there, what steps, the missing middle is something family firms

:01:27. > :01:31.need to action. This family has said how it is the next generation and

:01:32. > :01:34.it's changed their strategy. For most family firms, trying to

:01:35. > :01:38.understand that, what they want to achieve in a family business and

:01:39. > :01:42.getting the right level support to achieve their goals. Some people

:01:43. > :01:47.might think, they are only getting a job cause it is their son or their

:01:48. > :01:51.daughter. It's hard for the next generation to prove themselves, so

:01:52. > :01:54.many generations will spend a lot of time working outside the family

:01:55. > :01:58.firm, building up their qualifications and experience, and

:01:59. > :02:02.when they come here, getting experience on the shop floor. Thank

:02:03. > :02:08.you for joining us. I'm going to leave you with a big bold but it's

:02:09. > :02:20.quite heavy, actually. Look at that! Fantastic. Don't drop it on your

:02:21. > :02:21.toe. Thank you. Thank you all of you who have family businesses for

:02:22. > :02:25.sending us your photos of businesses through the generation.

:02:26. > :03:33.Wonderful pictures. Thank you so much. It's great when viewers get

:03:34. > :03:41.involved. In a moment, we'll be speaking to two of the contestants

:03:42. > :03:43.in this year's Celebrity MasterChef. All of the memories will come

:03:44. > :05:25.flooding back, but first the I loved my time on MasterChef

:05:26. > :05:28.but I know there will be 20 celebrities feeling very nervous

:05:29. > :05:31.as they become the latest stars Over the next six weeks we will be

:05:32. > :05:44.finding out who will be cooking up a storm and who will leave a bad

:05:45. > :05:47.taste in the judges' mouths as they are put

:05:48. > :05:50.through a series of challenges. We'll speak to two of this

:05:51. > :05:52.year's competitors, TV presenter Angellica Bell

:05:53. > :05:54.and World Snooker Champion Stephen Hendry shortly,

:05:55. > :05:58.but first let's get a taster Man with the no shaking hands

:05:59. > :06:03.should not shake there. You know what, I know what I should

:06:04. > :06:07.be doing, but I can't do it. You come to the pass,

:06:08. > :06:23.you take it, you send it, OK? Over in Soho, the lunchtime

:06:24. > :06:27.rush has arrived. OK, we've got check on, we've got

:06:28. > :06:30.two cheeseburgers on order. And we've got another

:06:31. > :06:33.burger on order. All five burgers have to be cooked

:06:34. > :06:57.to a perfect medium-rare. I haven't got a thermometer so I've

:06:58. > :07:19.got to go with how it looks. The stress! It is stressful. Good

:07:20. > :07:24.morning, both. Let's start at the beginning. How was your cooking

:07:25. > :07:27.before you went on the show? It was OK but the strange thing about

:07:28. > :07:35.cooking is you never want to save you are a really good cook. I like

:07:36. > :07:38.cooking, I like feeding my family and I like friends over, but I

:07:39. > :07:42.wouldn't have gone in and said I was a good cook. Nobody goes on the

:07:43. > :07:46.programme being hopeless in the kitchen. When you were winning your

:07:47. > :07:52.world titles, will you cooking for yourself? I've been fortunate to go

:07:53. > :07:56.all over the world and eaten some fantastic food and I got interested

:07:57. > :07:59.in it and began doing all the cooking and got into it and enjoyed

:08:00. > :08:06.it for the butt with this show, I may be found out I wasn't what I

:08:07. > :08:12.thought I was! What was the most difficult thing to cope with? What

:08:13. > :08:17.was the first test? We had the mystery box. Just walking into the

:08:18. > :08:21.studio the first time is like daunting. I remember walking in, you

:08:22. > :08:27.get there, you don't know who is in your Chile, so I walk in and I've

:08:28. > :08:35.got Stephen Bear, oh, my gosh, Julia Somerville. And you don't meet Greg

:08:36. > :08:39.Ben John until you do it. Every cooking technique went when I walked

:08:40. > :08:47.in and I was like, I can't do this I'm out of my depth. For me, the

:08:48. > :08:51.time pressure was very wheel. We are used to cooking but to say you've

:08:52. > :08:55.got to do something in an hour... I'm used to chilling with a glass of

:08:56. > :09:01.wine in my hand. But then you have to do it in this and this time. That

:09:02. > :09:05.was hard. I don't cook that often but, when my kids come up and say,

:09:06. > :09:10.what are you doing, I find that distracting for the lead when they

:09:11. > :09:16.are saying, what's this? They never say it's good or bad. It can be

:09:17. > :09:19.daunting. It makes you feel like you are hopeless, because they have the

:09:20. > :09:22.best poker faces, so you don't know whether it is right and you start

:09:23. > :09:25.second-guessing yourself and you think, I'm going.

:09:26. > :09:27.Let's take a look at what happened when Angellica was distracted

:09:28. > :09:41.In metier crumble and I'm going to try and make a custard as well. --

:09:42. > :09:50.I'm making a crumble. Gregg! Get out of my kitchen! I didn't do that.

:09:51. > :09:58.Start again. I like cooking. And usually I don't boil the milk. Deal

:09:59. > :10:06.with that. It's fine. What do you mean, it's fine! He was in your

:10:07. > :10:10.space! He was in my face and I've never burnt milk in my life! So

:10:11. > :10:16.embarrassing. It only takes a second. The other thing I enjoyed

:10:17. > :10:23.about it was when you are thrown in the deep end, mass catering or

:10:24. > :10:27.working in a kitchen with a chef. What was that like? Very intense.

:10:28. > :10:30.I've got great respect for people that do that. I don't think I'll

:10:31. > :10:36.ever complained about a restaurant in my life again. Now you been on

:10:37. > :10:44.MasterChef, you'll be like, take that back! I had seven pieces of cod

:10:45. > :10:49.in three different stages of cooking, and the chef shouting, how

:10:50. > :10:53.long for this one? You got come up with the time, and it's madness.

:10:54. > :10:59.Looking loved it, but looking back it's stressful. You've always said

:11:00. > :11:05.it's completely changed the way that you cook at home. Completely, how I

:11:06. > :11:14.approach food and look at recipes and what about you? I love it. Now,

:11:15. > :11:19.I'll buy a cookbook just to read methods for the interested, I might

:11:20. > :11:26.try that... I watch all the cooking programmes. I've learned a lot and

:11:27. > :11:34.how does it compare to playing sport at an extremely high level? You've

:11:35. > :11:38.got to focus. I didn't mind the professional kitchen, that's like a

:11:39. > :11:44.big arena. The pressure I put on myself, which are used to do in my

:11:45. > :11:47.career as well. You were so successful at the snooker table and

:11:48. > :11:54.you trained harder than anybody else and put in more hours. Did you find

:11:55. > :11:58.yourself... Did your sport brain take over? I seemed to switch on. As

:11:59. > :12:06.soon as I got behind my little cooker, I was like, let's get the

:12:07. > :12:11.queue... You have a tennis player, a snooker player, Julia Somerville, US

:12:12. > :12:16.an icon, and Jim... I'm out of my depth! Did people become possessive

:12:17. > :12:23.about where they stood in the kitchen? I think I was at the front.

:12:24. > :12:27.I didn't like that. I did a bit of wandering. I finished before anybody

:12:28. > :12:31.else, so I started looking around for the that must be annoying for

:12:32. > :12:38.everybody else. He was just singing away. You're not going to tell us

:12:39. > :12:42.how you do, because you are not allowed, but one of my favourite

:12:43. > :12:49.things is, if you did well, you get to go and judge again, and I have

:12:50. > :12:56.been back to do some judging. Did you judge us? I might have done! I

:12:57. > :13:03.hate you! I don't really, I love you. People have gone on to be

:13:04. > :13:07.really successful from doing this as well they have found things they

:13:08. > :13:17.didn't know they could do. Obviously not these two! That's it, you're not

:13:18. > :13:24.talking to me any more. Did you learn something about yourself?

:13:25. > :13:28.Yeah, I did, I learned that sometimes it's good to put yourself

:13:29. > :13:30.in situations where you are not comfortable way you are tested,

:13:31. > :13:39.because you can surprise yourself. Very much so. Good luck to you both.

:13:40. > :13:44.It's a fantastic programme. Clearly, I love it. And thank you for showing

:13:45. > :13:46.me burning milk. The low point of my cooking career!

:13:47. > :13:51.Celebrity MasterChef starts tonight at 8pm on BBC One.

:13:52. > :13:55.Don't leave the milk on the hob, everyone.

:13:56. > :13:59.Charlie and Tina will be here tomorrow from 6am.
