This is Breakfast. Donald Trump warns North Korea the US is ready to

:00:11.:00:23.

use nuclear weapons to defend itself. Washington says it will use

:00:24.:00:28.

a massive military response if America is threatened.

:00:29.:00:31.

In the last few hours, South Korea carried out a missile

:00:32.:00:35.

drill simulating an attack on the North's nuclear test site.

:00:36.:00:52.

Good morning, it is Monday four September.

:00:53.:00:55.

Also this morning: The UK's coastal communities are among

:00:56.:00:57.

We are live at the seaside, with exclusive figures.

:00:58.:01:10.

Ten years ago the government identified a problem, five years ago

:01:11.:01:17.

it set aside money to try and fix it. Today we can reveal the gap

:01:18.:01:21.

between coastal and non- coastal communities is getting bigger. Why

:01:22.:01:25.

are our beautiful coastlines underperforming?

:01:26.:01:27.

A senior police officer warns that forces in England and Wales

:01:28.:01:30.

are facing a perfect storm, because of staff cuts

:01:31.:01:32.

When will wages grow faster than prices?

:01:33.:01:41.

I will have some of the answers from our survey of financial

:01:42.:01:44.

In sport: Lewis Hamilton jumps for joy, after snatching the Formula

:01:45.:01:51.

1 championship lead with victory at the Italian Grand Prix.

:01:52.:01:54.

And, as one retailer says it is ditching separate labels

:01:55.:01:57.

for boys' and girls' clothes, we are asking if the days

:01:58.:02:00.

of his and hers outfits are numbered.

:02:01.:02:05.

We just said boys and girls can wear the same thing. Yes, and they can

:02:06.:02:12.

like the same things, too. It is a grey, gloomy start to the

:02:13.:02:24.

day. Some of us will see some brightness later on. I will bring

:02:25.:02:28.

you all the weather details in 15 minutes.

:02:29.:02:29.

First, our main story: President Trump has warned

:02:30.:02:32.

the United States is ready to use its nuclear capabilities

:02:33.:02:35.

in defending itself and its allies against North Korea.

:02:36.:02:37.

His comments come as the United Nations prepares for an emergency

:02:38.:02:40.

session to discuss Pyongyang's claims of a successful nuclear

:02:41.:02:43.

After the North exploded a nuclear device below ground, the South

:02:44.:02:58.

responded with this. A series of missile launchers above ground. The

:02:59.:03:01.

military said they hit their target in the East Sea early on Monday. It

:03:02.:03:07.

was designed to replicate an attack on North Korea's nuclear testing

:03:08.:03:15.

site. Across the border over the weekend, this was how North Koreans

:03:16.:03:18.

heard about the perfect success that was their nations sixth nuclear

:03:19.:03:23.

missile test. It was more powerful than any before, and came with

:03:24.:03:28.

claims that Kim Jong-un now has the ability to order a nuclear strike on

:03:29.:03:33.

mainland America. A few hours later, in Washington, having briefed the

:03:34.:03:37.

President, the US secretary of defence gave this very stark

:03:38.:03:41.

warning. Any threat to the United States or its territories, including

:03:42.:03:48.

Guam, or our allies, will be met with a massive military response, a

:03:49.:03:51.

response both effective and overwhelming. China has a crucial

:03:52.:03:57.

role to play in this, posting a handful of world leaders at a

:03:58.:04:05.

summit, President Xi urged restraint on all sides. The President of

:04:06.:04:15.

Japan... The leader wants to focus on even tougher economic sanctions,

:04:16.:04:19.

as United Nations Security Council meets later.

:04:20.:04:20.

What should we read into this missile test by the South?

:04:21.:04:26.

The language here is deeply concerning, isn't it? What do you

:04:27.:04:33.

make of it all? Well, I think what is most interesting this morning is

:04:34.:04:37.

that show of force again by South Korea's military. It is not the

:04:38.:04:41.

first time they have done this but launching those missiles is designed

:04:42.:04:44.

to reassure South Koreans about the permanent state of alert this

:04:45.:04:48.

country finds itself in. They did something similar a few days ago

:04:49.:04:51.

after that missile launch heading towards Japan. There was a dummy

:04:52.:04:55.

bombing run with missiles dropped onto the side of a mountain near the

:04:56.:04:59.

border with North Korea from South Korean Air Force jets. So that is

:05:00.:05:03.

the military answer this morning. But nonetheless, this country's

:05:04.:05:09.

president, Moon, wants to go even further in terms of economic

:05:10.:05:13.

sanctions. That will be the focus at United Nations Security Council

:05:14.:05:17.

meeting in New York later today. A reminder, though, of what is at

:05:18.:05:21.

stake. We heard from the White House after President Trump spoke with

:05:22.:05:25.

Japan's leader, Shinzo Abe, a few hours ago, and he reminded people

:05:26.:05:30.

the US is prepared to use all the options at its disposal, economic,

:05:31.:05:33.

diplomatic and its nuclear capabilities.

:05:34.:05:35.

And we will speak to a woman who defected from North Korea,

:05:36.:05:38.

to find out about life under the regime there.

:05:39.:05:41.

There is a warning that policing in England and Wales is facing

:05:42.:05:49.

a perfect storm because of rising crime and staff shortages.

:05:50.:05:51.

The president of the Police Superintendents' Association,

:05:52.:05:53.

Gavin Thomas, will deliver the message in a speech

:05:54.:05:56.

to its annual conference, which begins today.

:05:57.:05:57.

Our home affairs correspondent Danny Shaw reports.

:05:58.:06:05.

Is the thin blue line becoming too thin?

:06:06.:06:10.

Yes, says the Police Superintendents' Association.

:06:11.:06:16.

It is the association that represents 1,000 middle-ranking

:06:17.:06:19.

officers, the men and women who make the key operational decisions.

:06:20.:06:22.

The superintendents are concerned that there are fewer police officers

:06:23.:06:26.

working harder and working longer hours, in more

:06:27.:06:28.

The man who leads the organisation believes that is a model of policing

:06:29.:06:34.

I think it's the service of first resort, I think it's the service

:06:35.:06:48.

understandably, and I think what I've also described -

:06:49.:06:53.

I think we're also the service that is everything

:06:54.:06:56.

That puts a lot of pressure on police officers to try and meet

:06:57.:07:01.

I'm not convinced it is a sustainable position

:07:02.:07:04.

The Superintendents' Association conducted a survey of its members

:07:05.:07:09.

72% of those who responded said they did not use all the annual

:07:10.:07:13.

50% of superintendents said they had signs of anxiety.

:07:14.:07:17.

And over one quarter, 27%, were experiencing symptoms

:07:18.:07:21.

of depression, linked to the demands of working in policing.

:07:22.:07:24.

The Association is known for being the voice of moderation

:07:25.:07:26.

in policing, so its warnings are likely to be taken seriously.

:07:27.:07:29.

The Home Office says it is piloting a new national service to provide

:07:30.:07:33.

welfare support to police who need it.

:07:34.:07:38.

Ministers have also been having discussions with police leaders,

:07:39.:07:45.

amid calls for extra police funding for forces,

:07:46.:07:47.

but no decisions have yet been taken.

:07:48.:07:54.

A rise in interest rates won't take place for more than a year,

:07:55.:07:58.

and the squeeze in the cost of living may soon be easing.

:07:59.:08:01.

This is according to a BBC survey of 30 leading economists.

:08:02.:08:04.

Sean, what more can the survey tell us about the economy?

:08:05.:08:07.

Well, it depends which part of it you take. These are all forecasts.

:08:08.:08:12.

You have to remember when economists chat about stuff. These leading

:08:13.:08:17.

economists are listened to buy lots of businesses, government

:08:18.:08:19.

policymakers, and it gives you an idea what the Bank of England are

:08:20.:08:23.

thinking about interest rates. Most of them think no rate rise until

:08:24.:08:26.

2019. If you have a mortgage that might be good news. If you are a

:08:27.:08:31.

saver and have been trying to save while interest rates have been so

:08:32.:08:34.

low, the not so great news. It gives you an idea that that might be what

:08:35.:08:40.

the Bank of England is thinking. That is a lot to do with Brexit,

:08:41.:08:44.

that uncertainty, not leaving until March 2019, until some kind of

:08:45.:08:47.

detail is given in those negotiations, when they giving that

:08:48.:08:50.

might be more confident to raise rates. In half an hour we are

:08:51.:08:53.

speaking to one of these economists, who thinks there might be a little

:08:54.:08:57.

rise later in the year. And on wages and inflation, a lot of economists

:08:58.:09:01.

think prices will not be rising as quickly as they were recently, and

:09:02.:09:04.

that wage rises will start to come through a little bit stronger. That

:09:05.:09:08.

means beginning of next year, good news for workers if it happens.

:09:09.:09:10.

Thank you. A seven-hour disturbance at one

:09:11.:09:10.

of England's largest jails has been Specialist staff had been called

:09:11.:09:13.

in to Birmingham Prison to deal with the inmates, who refused

:09:14.:09:17.

to return to their cells. The disorder was confined to one

:09:18.:09:20.

wing of the privately run jail. Our correspondent

:09:21.:09:23.

Keith Doyle has more. The trouble started yesterday

:09:24.:09:32.

afternoon, and went on into the night. It began when inmates on one

:09:33.:09:38.

wing refused to return to their cells following afternoon

:09:39.:09:40.

association. The Prison Service said...

:09:41.:09:45.

No staff or inmates were injured, although one prisoner was taken to

:09:46.:09:51.

hospital for an unrelated medical matter. The rest of the jail was

:09:52.:09:56.

unaffected. The prison, one of the largest in the UK, is privately run

:09:57.:10:02.

by G4S. It said the incident was brought to a safe conclusion shortly

:10:03.:10:06.

before midnight. Last December, ?2 million worth of damage was done

:10:07.:10:11.

when hundreds of prisoners were involved in serious disturbances

:10:12.:10:14.

over conditions in the prison, which holds up to 1450 category B and C

:10:15.:10:18.

prisoners. A state of emergency has been

:10:19.:10:21.

declared in Los Angeles, as the city battles the worst

:10:22.:10:24.

wildfires in its history. Hundreds of homes

:10:25.:10:26.

have been evacuated. The fires, covering about 5,000

:10:27.:10:28.

acres, started on Friday and have They are arriving from a galaxy far,

:11:55.:12:02.

Talking about Lewis Hamilton, he was booed at the weekend.

:12:03.:12:04.

Lewis Hamilton won the Italian Grand Prix in dominant style,

:12:05.:12:06.

to take the lead in the Drivers' Championship for the first

:12:07.:12:09.

A day after breaking the all-time record for pole positions,

:12:10.:12:13.

Hamilton was in total control at Monza, finishing ahead

:12:14.:12:15.

of team-mate Valtteri Bottas, for a Mercedes one-two.

:12:16.:12:18.

Maria Sharapova is out of the US Open.

:12:19.:12:20.

The former world number one and 2006 champion was making her return

:12:21.:12:23.

to Grand Slam tennis following a 15-month drugs ban,

:12:24.:12:25.

but lost in the fourth round to Latvian Anastasija

:12:26.:12:28.

Chris Froome has extended his overall lead at the Vuelta a Espana,

:12:29.:12:31.

He now leads his nearest rival by over a minute.

:12:32.:12:36.

There are six stages to go after today's rest day.

:12:37.:12:39.

Jordan Henderson will again captain England against Slovakia

:12:40.:12:41.

in tonight's crucial World Cup qualifier at Wembley.

:12:42.:12:43.

Elsewhere, Scotland host Malta, and Northern Ireland take

:12:44.:12:45.

I am sure they can do that, can't they? Sorry, have you finished your

:12:46.:13:06.

toast? And Luxembourg and France drawing 0-0. And we will have a look

:13:07.:13:15.

at the weather. Good morning. We have a bit of a grey start to the

:13:16.:13:20.

day to day. This scene was taken yesterday in Saint Leonards on Sea

:13:21.:13:24.

in East Sussex. Similar skies across many parts of the country today. We

:13:25.:13:28.

have some cloud, some drizzly rain but for some of us it is set to

:13:29.:13:32.

brighten up later in the day. What we have at the moment is this warm

:13:33.:13:36.

front crossing the country during Sunday, quite a lot of wet weather

:13:37.:13:39.

and still lingering around. We have quite a lot of low cloud around.

:13:40.:13:43.

More persistent rain sitting to the north-west so for the far west of

:13:44.:14:00.

Northern Ireland, into Scotland. Elsewhere, for Northern Ireland and

:14:01.:14:03.

Scotland, it is a cloudy and drizzly picture. There is some hill fog

:14:04.:14:06.

around, quite drizzly first thing. As we had our way south across

:14:07.:14:09.

northern England, down towards the Midlands, fairly cloudy here and

:14:10.:14:13.

spots of drizzly rain coming out of that cloud, with some low fog and

:14:14.:14:16.

Hill cloud. Certainly mild, so temperatures wherever you are in the

:14:17.:14:19.

mid-to-high teens first thing. This is 8am, some drizzly rain for

:14:20.:14:22.

Cornwall but temperatures in Plymouth around 17 degrees. You will

:14:23.:14:25.

see some dry weather as we crossed southern England, but down towards

:14:26.:14:28.

the south-east some patchy outbreaks of showery rain through the day. A

:14:29.:14:31.

bit of brightness developing later on once the sunshine start to break

:14:32.:14:35.

holes in the cloud, especially for parts of southern England and the

:14:36.:14:38.

Midlands. Further north, this cold front sinks its way through parts of

:14:39.:14:41.

Northern Ireland Scotland, bringing more persistent rain, followed by

:14:42.:14:43.

clear refreshing conditions from the north-west later on. For much of the

:14:44.:14:47.

country we keep a mild and murky theme, with temperatures in sunny

:14:48.:14:52.

spot 22 or 23 degrees. Into the evening, this cold front in the

:14:53.:14:56.

North starts to pep up and we will see heavier bursts of rain for

:14:57.:14:59.

Northern Ireland, Scotland, into parts of northern England and as

:15:00.:15:04.

well. Mild and cloudy conditions to the south-east of that, and we will

:15:05.:15:07.

start to see clearer and fresher weather moving in from the west.

:15:08.:15:12.

This frontal system tomorrow not going anywhere in too much of a

:15:13.:15:16.

hurry, we still have our wrecks of rain through the day tomorrow, but

:15:17.:15:19.

it will be an improving picture. Quite easy with that rain through

:15:20.:15:24.

central parts of the country. -- outbreaks of rain. With some

:15:25.:15:27.

sunshine in northern and western parts of the country, still quite

:15:28.:15:32.

mild if not humid in the south and south-east, with temperatures of 21

:15:33.:15:37.

degrees. Things will start to improved through the middle part of

:15:38.:15:42.

the week, so there will be a bit more brightness and dry weather for

:15:43.:15:45.

Wednesday into Thursday, and it looks like things could turn quite

:15:46.:15:49.

wet and windy as we end the week. Back to you both.

:15:50.:15:57.

People are sending an lovely photos of coastal areas so thank you for

:15:58.:16:02.

those. yes. We will be set at the coast all week. A look at the front

:16:03.:16:07.

pages. The front page of the times I will begin with, this is our main

:16:08.:16:14.

story this morning, the US threat to attack him after bomb threat. And a

:16:15.:16:22.

lovely picture of Helen Mirren at the Venice film Festival. She and

:16:23.:16:31.

Donald Sutherland have a film out. A story about a couple who go on a

:16:32.:16:35.

road trip through America in a campervan. The main story also is

:16:36.:16:42.

about North Korea and the escalating situation there, with the US saying

:16:43.:16:46.

it is ready to annihilate North Korea. On the Sun, a story that has

:16:47.:16:51.

been prevalent over the last few days, the Rooney marriage. Wayne

:16:52.:16:55.

thinks it is all over with a picture of his wife. There is something

:16:56.:17:06.

inside this today about a Dell. -- Adele. Yes, a scoop about Adele

:17:07.:17:12.

being Nancy in the new Oliver! No cap film. -- film. And we makes the

:17:13.:17:23.

front page on the Daily Mail as well. And also a story about people

:17:24.:17:28.

overloading their bins and risking a ?500 worth of fines. Councils are

:17:29.:17:35.

threatening new sanctions under antisocial behaviour laws. And news

:17:36.:17:39.

from the business desk. Workers at two outlets of McDonald's in the UK

:17:40.:17:44.

are on strike today, the first time McDonald's workers have been on

:17:45.:17:48.

strike here. Partly to do with low wages. They wish to be paid more

:17:49.:17:52.

zero hours contracts as well. It will be to see how that plays out as

:17:53.:17:58.

McDonald's has not had to deal with that in Britain before. Inside the

:17:59.:18:03.

Guardian. Maria Sharapova, out of the US Open, despite the best

:18:04.:18:06.

efforts of the US television networks. She was knocked out

:18:07.:18:11.

yesterday but she had four matches in a row at the US Open exclusively

:18:12.:18:16.

on the main court. Very interesting. Yes. yes. Some players are not happy

:18:17.:18:26.

about it. She said she would play in the parking lot but she didn't have

:18:27.:18:31.

to. And this gorgeous picture here. Look at this. Isn't that beautiful?

:18:32.:18:37.

That is in the Times today. The photographer captured this

:18:38.:18:41.

gorgeous... I was watching that on the television yesterday. It is

:18:42.:18:47.

probably a lake, isn't it? It is the horse trials. Yes. There is a

:18:48.:18:54.

bridge, a horse, this is the Burleigh horse trials. It is just a

:18:55.:19:01.

gorgeous photo. Are any of you any good at Scrabble? Not really. It has

:19:02.:19:09.

been well tested that for some reason men are better at Scrabble

:19:10.:19:12.

than women, according to the experts. Do not get annoyed at

:19:13.:19:16.

being. You can work out, they have worked out why that is. Men are

:19:17.:19:23.

considerably better than women at Scrabble and scientists have

:19:24.:19:25.

established why. Not an innate difference in talent it is just that

:19:26.:19:31.

women are far less willing to waste their time honing a largely

:19:32.:19:35.

pointless skill. I was all prepared to disagree... See, you are angry

:19:36.:19:44.

and then... Yes, and you win definitely. Is a good for your

:19:45.:19:50.

brain, rather than pointless? I have one of those dictionaries with the

:19:51.:19:56.

two letter words. I cheated once at Scrabble. You cheated? I was playing

:19:57.:20:04.

with my brother, he had to go to the toilet and I grabbed all the high

:20:05.:20:11.

scores. Damn, I will never trust you again. -- Dana. I did learn my

:21:10.:21:18.

we brought the beach cleaners in. We are here to discuss serious things.

:21:19.:21:23.

It is beautiful here in Weston-Super-Mare but research we

:21:24.:21:25.

have commissioned shows that in terms of the education attainment

:21:26.:21:30.

economic growth and value um too many of these gorgeous coastal

:21:31.:21:33.

communities, not this one, are languishing at the bottom of the

:21:34.:21:38.

table. A big announcement in terms of coastal community funding from

:21:39.:21:41.

the government and just a short while on this programme. Bite we

:21:42.:21:44.

went to see the tale of two towns. One it that benefit and one that has

:21:45.:21:49.

yet to benefit from government funding.

:21:50.:21:54.

This used to be one of the best and busiest seaside resorts in the whole

:21:55.:22:05.

of Scotland. John tells me the story of a dress and. Boats going there.

:22:06.:22:14.

Boats going to Belfast it was such a vibrant and lively place. But today,

:22:15.:22:20.

only one ferry remains. Industry which once employed thousands has

:22:21.:22:24.

gone. The beach is beautiful, but empty. How does this make you feel?

:22:25.:22:33.

Very angry. A small marina now sits where the busy port once sprawled.

:22:34.:22:38.

Superyacht is worth hundreds of thousands but unemployment rates are

:22:39.:22:43.

amongst the very worst in the UK. Plenty feel left behind. Have you

:22:44.:22:50.

given up? Pretty much. Do you feel that the powers that be care about

:22:51.:22:54.

the changes that are going on in places like this? No. Definitely

:22:55.:23:00.

not. They can't experience the problems because they don't see it

:23:01.:23:03.

every day. A sense that the coast has been left behind is backed by

:23:04.:23:08.

statistics out today. Economic growth is slower here. Over 80% of

:23:09.:23:13.

people who live in these areas are paid less. The economic gap between

:23:14.:23:16.

coastal and non- coastal communities is growing. The reason probably that

:23:17.:23:20.

other places have done well is because governments have supported

:23:21.:23:23.

city deals. We would like some of that. We need it now. We don't have

:23:24.:23:30.

time to weight. But here in the west of Scotland they are still waiting

:23:31.:23:34.

for funding. In the north-east, the wait is over. So much of Whitley

:23:35.:23:40.

Bay's story was the same as Ardressan, a result which teamed

:23:41.:23:44.

with holidaymakers, eager to visit the city with their rides, dancing

:24:08.:24:12.

?10 million of public money. I am honoured to be able to do this.

:24:13.:24:15.

Something that is close to my heart. ?2 million has come from the

:24:16.:24:18.

government was coastal communities fund. That has invested over ?170

:24:19.:24:24.

million in the last five years in areas like this and has extended

:24:25.:24:29.

today with an extra ?40 million. A new restaurant here is a sign of the

:24:30.:24:36.

private money quick to follow public investment. Do you think that the

:24:37.:24:41.

government is doing enough? It could do a lot more. If you look around

:24:42.:24:45.

the country and see how many people are living in these towns um they

:24:46.:24:49.

have almost been left to die, they are as important as the people who

:24:50.:24:53.

live in the big cities, aren't they? The coast of Britain has an

:24:54.:24:58.

incredible story. Often a white knuckle ride to the that live there.

:24:59.:25:02.

But proof here as successful as investment. No proof yet there is

:25:03.:25:04.

enough investment to go around. Let's hear a bit more about how we

:25:05.:25:14.

can generate some success. Come and meet some of our coastal

It is a great opportunity for us. A home game, we are playing good

opposition, so we have to make sure that we are tactically prepared,

:36:43.:36:47.

which we will be. Also we have got to have belief in the team that we

:36:48.:36:51.

have got. We have got some exciting players, and we want to go and show

:36:52.:36:53.

that. Bath sealed their first victory

:37:06.:37:07.

on the opening weekend, a record for the first round of

:37:08.:37:11.

fixtures in the Premiership. Great Britain's Oliver Townend won

finished in the top ten. One of the best names I have ever

:37:37.:37:55.

read in a sport bulletin, Piggy French.

:37:56.:37:56.

Now, we talked yesterday morning about the charity football match

:37:57.:37:59.

being played in memory of young Bradley Lowery,

:38:00.:38:01.

the Sunderland fanatic who suffered from a rare form of cancer,

:38:02.:38:04.

Well, thousands of people turned up at Everton's Goodison Park to watch

:38:05.:38:14.

two teams, led by Everton legend Peter Reid and model Katie Price.

:38:15.:38:18.

The Bradley Lowery Foundation, which was set up to help sick

:38:19.:38:21.

children, and Everton in the Community, will benefit

:38:22.:38:23.

I know lots of people were involved yesterday, we had some people who

:38:24.:38:29.

are playing on the sofa yesterday. Huge squads for both sides, so

:38:30.:38:31.

everybody got a game. And finally, let's take a look

:38:32.:38:34.

at two of football's brightest stars While training in Manaus,

:38:35.:38:37.

Neymar and Gabriel Jesus did keepy-uppies for a whole

:38:38.:38:40.

lap of the pitch. That is just ridiculous. Towards the

:38:41.:39:20.

end they are starting to turn around. And they were not that aware

:39:21.:39:27.

that anyone was watching, they were just kind of mucking about. Very

:39:28.:39:29.

impressive. Months of escalating

:39:30.:39:30.

rhetoric between North Korea and the United States culminated

:39:31.:39:32.

in claims of a successful nuclear weapons test by Pyongyang

:39:33.:39:35.

over the weekend. The announcement of the test

:39:36.:39:37.

was made on state television TRANSLATION: The test of a hydrogen

:39:38.:39:52.

bomb designed to be mounted on our intercontinental ballistic missile

:39:53.:39:56.

was a perfect success. It was a very meaningful step in completing the

:39:57.:39:57.

National eclair weapons programme. Verifying details from North Korea

:39:58.:40:01.

is notoriously difficult. But what is it like

:40:02.:40:03.

living under the regime? We are joined now by Jee-Yun Park,

:40:04.:40:05.

who defected in 1998. Good morning, thank you very much

:40:06.:40:20.

indeed for joining us. You are sort of in a unique position to tell us

:40:21.:40:24.

what life was like. What was it like living in North Korea? What kind of

:40:25.:40:28.

things where you allowed to do, not allowed to do? Well, when I leave

:40:29.:40:33.

North Korea, my father was a driver and my mother was a housewife. So my

:40:34.:40:41.

father was proud of himself, because he was a work party member in North

:40:42.:40:46.

Korea. So he always told us, when you grow up you also join the work

:40:47.:40:54.

party, and start a family. So that education is not only in the home,

:40:55.:40:59.

in school, and every public place everywhere, in the newspaper, TV,

:41:00.:41:06.

and books, also describing everywhere the Kim family. So I was

:41:07.:41:09.

brainwashed in North Korea, and I believe that North Korea was

:41:10.:41:20.

stronger than other countries, and also... In early 1990s North Korea

:41:21.:41:26.

started a famine and many people died of starvation in the street,

:41:27.:41:31.

and my neighbours. So when we wake up, we heard that today who died of

:41:32.:41:38.

starvation, and which families died in their home. But it happened in

:41:39.:41:45.

1996 with my family members, my uncle died of starvation in front of

:41:46.:41:52.

me. So when I saw my uncle's body, it didn't look like a person, it

:41:53.:42:02.

looked like an animal, only bones. And he was small, small. So at that

:42:03.:42:07.

time I looked to my father's face, but his face was darkness and he was

:42:08.:42:12.

speechless. And I have got many questions at that time in my head,

:42:13.:42:16.

but I couldn't have spoken out, because North Korea is a dangerous

:42:17.:42:21.

country. And how did you come to leave North Korea eventually, than?

:42:22.:42:25.

I never thought about leaving North Korea at that time, I continued to

:42:26.:42:30.

believe in the Kim family. But in 1997 my brother joined the military,

:42:31.:42:39.

and at that time there were problems, and he left the military.

:42:40.:42:47.

So I left home immediately, because at that time... I waited to pass

:42:48.:43:02.

away my brother's problems. My brother was alone, and died, and I

:43:03.:43:12.

still don't know when my brother 's passed away, and where his body is.

:43:13.:43:18.

Once in China, I thought that maybe I saved my younger brother, but I

:43:19.:43:26.

was separated from my brother. So my brother was also repatriated to

:43:27.:43:30.

North Korea, so it was 17 years since he disappeared. So in 2004 I

:43:31.:43:41.

also repatriated in North Korea, from China. So I also repatriated in

:43:42.:43:45.

North Korea and stayed in a labour camp. Thank you very much for coming

:43:46.:43:50.

to talk to us on BBC Breakfast. Let's find out what is happening in

:43:51.:43:59.

the weather. We have a real mix of weather types of the next few days.

:44:00.:44:03.

We start the week with a lot of cloud. It is mild, murky and

:44:04.:44:06.

drizzly. Things will improve with some brighter weather developing

:44:07.:44:09.

through the middle of the week and then wet and windy to end the week.

:44:10.:44:13.

This is how things look today. This was taken yesterday in Saint

:44:14.:44:16.

Leonards on Sea, but lots of cloud and that cloud is bringing with it

:44:17.:44:20.

some outbreaks of drizzly rain. This warm front has pushed its way from

:44:21.:44:24.

west to east across the country during the weekend. And today it is

:44:25.:44:27.

bringing us quite a damp that certainly a mild theme. For Northern

:44:28.:44:33.

Ireland, most places rather grey. A few spots of drizzle. The more

:44:34.:44:36.

persistent rain pushing in the western parts of Scotland. Elsewhere

:44:37.:44:40.

across Scotland, at 8am a lot of low cloud. Hill fog, some drizzly rain,

:44:41.:44:45.

pretty gloomy as well as we work away south across much of England

:44:46.:44:49.

and Wales. So all that low cloud around but temperatures very mild

:44:50.:44:53.

for the time of year, to start the day. Already in the mid-to-high

:44:54.:44:57.

teens. Coming out of this cloud that we have got, some drizzly spots of

:44:58.:45:01.

rain. It won't be raining all the time but a little bit of damp

:45:02.:45:05.

weather across parts of Cornwall and Devon. Dry weather into southern

:45:06.:45:08.

England, and into the south-west of England and East Anglia some drizzly

:45:09.:45:11.

showers likely through the course of the morning. For some of us the

:45:12.:45:17.

weather improve after that gloomy and grey start. Parts of southern

:45:18.:45:20.

England should see a few sunny spells developing. It will feel

:45:21.:45:24.

quite humid and warm, further north this frontal system moving in and

:45:25.:45:28.

bringing some outbreaks of rain to Northern Ireland and Central

:45:29.:45:31.

Scotland. Clearer conditions pushing into the north-west later on. In the

:45:32.:45:34.

brighter weather towards the south we could see 22 or 23 degrees, and

:45:35.:45:39.

it will feel quite warm and quite humid. Into the evening we will

:45:40.:45:42.

start to see this front in the North peppering up once again, that will

:45:43.:45:46.

bring rain quite widely through the night across Northern Ireland,

:45:47.:45:49.

northern and western England and Wales as well. Dry towards the

:45:50.:45:54.

south-east of that front, mild and murky, and we will start to see

:45:55.:45:57.

clearer weather heading in from the north-west eventually. Through the

:45:58.:46:00.

day tomorrow we will start with this front draped across many parts of

:46:01.:46:04.

the country. So again we will see a lot of cloud, some outbreaks of rain

:46:05.:46:08.

as well, but it will be slowly improving sort of day. The rain and

:46:09.:46:11.

breezy conditions clearing towards the east. Much of eastern England

:46:12.:46:15.

stay quite damp and drizzly through the day, but we will start to see

:46:16.:46:18.

clearer weather from the north and west. And temperatures a little bit

:46:19.:46:22.

cooler across Scotland and Northern Ireland, down towards Wales. Still

:46:23.:46:26.

quite murky at 21 in the south-east. Some dry weather for the middle part

:46:27.:46:30.

of the week before we see wetter and windy weather to end the week.

:46:31.:46:33.

A group of leading economists thinks the rise in the cost of living may

:46:34.:46:36.

soon be easing, and interest rates will stay low for longer.

:46:37.:46:39.

Good news for the squeeze on household finances?

:46:40.:46:42.

I have one of those leading economists with me so we will find

:46:43.:46:50.

out all this important stuff in a moment.

:46:51.:46:50.

Whether you're a saver, a mortgage holder, employer,

:46:51.:46:53.

worker, shopper - this is effectively a survey

:46:54.:46:55.

about what will happen to us all in the coming year or two.

:46:56.:46:59.

We asked 30 top financial forecasters what they think

:47:00.:47:01.

Most think inflation - the measure of the cost of living,

:47:02.:47:06.

It's been on the rise since the vote to leave the EU as the weak pound

:47:07.:47:15.

has been pushing up prices in the shops.

:47:16.:47:17.

There's more good news for households more than half

:47:18.:47:22.

of these economists think that wages will rise faster than prices

:47:23.:47:25.

in the first half of next year, which should help ease the squeeze

:47:26.:47:29.

And on interest rates, if you're trying to get a return

:47:30.:47:34.

on your savings, or you've got a mortgage what will happen?

:47:35.:47:37.

Well, more than half think there will be no rate rise

:47:38.:47:40.

Most believe it won't be until 2019 at the earliest.

:47:41.:47:46.

Interest rates are currently at an historic low of 0.25%.

:47:47.:47:53.

George Buckley is chief economist at the Japanese bank Nomura.

:47:54.:47:56.

Most economists think that the next rate rise will be in 2019 but you

:47:57.:48:13.

don't. You are an outlier in this. What do you think will happen? We

:48:14.:48:17.

thought they would raise interest rates last month so you may accuse

:48:18.:48:22.

us of crying wolf but I do think the Bank of England will be looking at

:48:23.:48:25.

the fact that the unemployment rate is now the lowest it has been since

:48:26.:48:30.

the mid-19 70s and the economy, by most measures, is growing well.

:48:31.:48:33.

Inflation is above its target and that is what the Bank of England is

:48:34.:48:37.

there to do, to control inflation. Much of that is because of sterling.

:48:38.:48:42.

For all those reasons I think the bank will be looking to move

:48:43.:48:46.

interest rates up at a very slow and modest pace over the course of the

:48:47.:48:50.

next few months. What do you think the vast majority of economists,

:48:51.:48:53.

and, at the minute, the vast majority of people at the Bank of

:48:54.:48:57.

England, don't think that now is the time for a rate rise. That will not

:48:58.:49:10.

happen. decade. If you are the rank of England and now that rate

:49:11.:49:16.

movements is quite home potent because of the number of people with

:49:17.:49:22.

debt. How about savers? As nobody care about the savers? They keep

:49:23.:49:27.

interest rates low and encourage economic growth which means that

:49:28.:49:31.

people can save more by being employed. That is one of the reasons

:49:32.:49:35.

I have kept interest rates low over the years. You can save more by

:49:36.:49:39.

being employed if your wages are increasing faster than prices that

:49:40.:49:42.

has not happened of late. When do you think there may be a turnaround?

:49:43.:49:46.

Think inflation may continue to rise over the next few months. You make

:49:47.:49:53.

peak at around 3%, we are at about 2.5 now. And then will start to

:49:54.:49:57.

drop. The impact of currency takes a long time to pass through sewer

:49:58.:50:00.

could take a long time for inflation to move back down to normal levels.

:50:01.:50:06.

How about us and wages? Wages will start to rise than they already are.

:50:07.:50:15.

Much evidence is pointing to how firms are now offering higher wages

:50:16.:50:18.

and people are demanding. I think by maybe the second quarter of next

:50:19.:50:24.

year we will seek wages match pace with inflation but it will take a

:50:25.:50:27.

lot to make up the difference. So you will say workers get letters

:50:28.:50:32.

from their bosses saying there will be pay rises in the New Year. Will

:50:33.:50:36.

that happen more often? I think it will. Sigley because the

:50:37.:50:39.

unemployment rate is so low. It is not a matter of how tightly labour

:50:40.:50:43.

market is that it is a good one and I think it means that wages will

:50:44.:50:48.

start to rise at the beginning of next year. Thank you George. Right

:50:49.:50:57.

now we will look at the coastal economy.

:50:58.:50:58.

You may think life's a beach living by the sea -

:50:59.:51:01.

but according to a report out today Britain's seaside communities

:51:02.:51:03.

are among the worst parts of the country

:51:04.:51:05.

The Government is announcing an additional 40 million to help -

:51:06.:51:09.

but how much difference will it make?

:51:10.:51:11.

As part of a special series we're looking at life

:51:12.:51:14.

Breakfast's Jayne McCubbin has more.

:51:15.:51:21.

Good morning. Good morning to you both. We have been on the road, the

:51:22.:51:33.

last few weeks, with our big BBC Breakfast deckchair. We have taken

:51:34.:51:37.

it the length and breadth of the country, right around the coast, to

:51:38.:51:42.

try to find out why our beautiful coastline is underperforming. It is

:51:43.:51:46.

not underperforming here. Weston-Super-Mare is top of the

:51:47.:51:49.

league table in terms of economic growth. But far too many places are

:51:50.:51:59.

at the bottom of table. So we have been out asked people what they

:52:00.:52:13.

think is going wrong. You can support coastal areas better if you

:52:14.:52:19.

did not have to rely so much upon cars getting to these villages. Haps

:52:20.:52:24.

if there was more investment in public transport. I think local

:52:25.:52:29.

areas just need support from councils. There has been a lot of

:52:30.:52:34.

investment but I think there is still more that could be done. To

:52:35.:52:40.

improve things. Some areas still seem rundown but there is a lot

:52:41.:52:44.

more... Areas that have been improved over the last few years. If

:52:45.:52:50.

they want to invest in it they should invest in property that

:52:51.:52:54.

people can afford to live in and work in. As soon as this place goes

:52:55.:53:01.

upmarket, everything gets expensive. You see many places close down on

:53:02.:53:07.

some seafronts and it is a shame because, you know, it is our

:53:08.:53:15.

heritage and it needs to be kept. Some of the coastal towns are

:53:16.:53:22.

rundown. I they could work towards keeping a cleaner. And more people

:53:23.:53:30.

as well. Keep the people coming. Enjoy being at the seaside, even if

:53:31.:53:37.

the weather is not there. Improving car parking and restaurants staying

:53:38.:53:43.

open longer. Those things would help locally. There you have it. That is

:53:44.:53:53.

your opinion out there, the people who live and love the coast.

:53:54.:53:59.

underinvestment. Rundown. Do not exploit local assets and resources.

:54:00.:54:03.

And was perfectly equipped to talk about this is ill. Good morning. You

:54:04.:54:14.

are cooking up a storm. Hopefully that will not bring on the rain. And

:54:15.:54:20.

you were head chef at River cottage, an award-winning writer. You would

:54:21.:54:23.

have seen him on television. What do you think is going wrong with

:54:24.:54:29.

Britain's posts? I think every seaside town needs to bring people

:54:30.:54:32.

in. It needs to make the most of what it has. That includes its

:54:33.:54:40.

high-street, it includes its good restaurants, it's watchers, it's

:54:41.:54:45.

bakers, you know... Local assets? It needs to celebrate everyone and

:54:46.:54:49.

everything that is great about the place. What are you cooking for this

:54:50.:54:52.

morning? Well, straightaway, here is a great fish. A local Mackle caught

:54:53.:54:59.

just down the coast. Beautifully fresh, straight on the barbecue. We

:55:00.:55:05.

have some wild mushrooms, a completely different food source, of

:55:06.:55:09.

course, some wild mushrooms did I picked these just a mile or so from

:55:10.:55:15.

my house. And we will try them in a minute with some of our coastal

:55:16.:55:19.

cheerleaders were going to chat to you later. So you say that we need

:55:20.:55:22.

to have come to appreciate our assets more. One is that, for

:55:23.:55:26.

example, that only 15% of international tourists visit our

:55:27.:55:33.

coast when they come to our country? That's... It is a staggering

:55:34.:55:35.

statistic. I really don't know the answer. I think that we just need to

:55:36.:55:40.

shout a bit more about what beautiful seaside towns we have.

:55:41.:55:48.

Where I am from, they are amazing. Let's chat to you a bit more about

:55:49.:55:53.

this a little later and some of our coastal cheerleaders, the people who

:55:54.:55:56.

are getting it right. But for now, back to the studio. And give very

:55:57.:56:00.

much indeed. Looks like breakfast will be lovely there on the beach.

:56:01.:56:04.

Yes, I do fancy a break after that, don't you? Yes. I know there are

:56:05.:56:11.

issues and I will talk to the minister about them but they are

:56:12.:56:15.

beautiful places to be. Don't forget to let us know what you think. Get

communities throughout the morning on BBC Breakfast.

:02:09.:02:09.

And Sarah has the forecast, for there and the rest

:02:10.:02:12.

It is a misty and murky start to the day, but it will feel quite warm. 22

:02:13.:02:22.

or 23 degrees for some of us later on so not too bad for the first week

:02:23.:02:26.

of September. I will have all the details later on.

:02:27.:02:27.

First, our main story: President Trump has warned

:02:28.:02:30.

the United States is ready to use its nuclear capabilities

:02:31.:02:33.

in defending itself and its allies against North Korea.

:02:34.:02:35.

His comments come as the United Nations prepares for an emergency

:02:36.:02:39.

session to discuss the regime's claims of a successful nuclear

:02:40.:02:41.

After the North exploded a nuclear device below ground,

:02:42.:02:51.

A series of missile launches above ground.

:02:52.:02:59.

The military said they hit their target in the East Sea

:03:00.:03:02.

It was designed to replicate an attack on North Korea's

:03:03.:03:06.

Across the border over the weekend, this was how North Koreans heard

:03:07.:03:14.

about the "perfect success" that was their nation's sixth

:03:15.:03:17.

It was more powerful than any before, and came with claims that

:03:18.:03:24.

Kim Jong-un now has the ability to order a nuclear strike

:03:25.:03:28.

A few hours later, in Washington, having briefed the President,

:03:29.:03:35.

the US secretary of defence gave this very stark warning.

:03:36.:03:37.

Any threat to the United States or its territories, including Guam,

:03:38.:03:40.

or our allies, will be met with a massive military response,

:03:41.:03:43.

a response both effective and overwhelming.

:03:44.:03:51.

China has a crucial role to play in this.

:03:52.:03:54.

Hosting a handful of world leaders at a summit,

:03:55.:03:59.

President Xi Jinping urged restraint on all sides.

:04:00.:04:15.

The leaders of China and Russia promised to deal appropriately

:04:16.:04:18.

The leader wants to focus on even tougher economic sanctions,

:04:19.:04:25.

as the United Nations Security Council meets later.

:04:26.:04:27.

What should we read into this missile test by the South?

:04:28.:04:32.

The us now saying they are willing to use their nuclear capability to

:04:33.:04:38.

try and stop what is going on in North Korea. How is that going on

:04:39.:04:41.

where you are, in Seoul? Well, that is not what the leader of this

:04:42.:04:49.

country, president Moon wants to hear. This is a man who was elected

:04:50.:04:54.

to extend an olive branch and begin dialogue. Clearly that is in tatters

:04:55.:04:58.

for now but nonetheless the president of this country is a man

:04:59.:05:02.

who said just a few weeks ago, he promised, in fact, the guaranteed,

:05:03.:05:05.

there would not be another military conflict on this peninsula. In fact,

:05:06.:05:10.

if there was an attack on North Korea, it would need his permission

:05:11.:05:15.

to do so. That does not really tally with what has come out of the United

:05:16.:05:20.

States, and I don't just mean the rhetoric of Donald Trump, Mr Mattis,

:05:21.:05:26.

who has talked about the massive military response which may come

:05:27.:05:29.

North Korea's way. The massive divide is troubling, and despite

:05:30.:05:35.

South Korea trying to paper over the cracks, the US is a very important

:05:36.:05:39.

ally to it. It is the most important security guarantor. What Donald

:05:40.:05:43.

Trump wants to achieve, and how South Korea can be achieved, as

:05:44.:05:46.

well. There is a warning that policing

:05:47.:05:48.

Superintendents' Association, Gavin Thomas, will tell

:05:55.:05:55.

the group's annual conference, today that the Government should

:05:56.:05:58.

review funding and resources. Our home affairs correspondent

:05:59.:06:00.

Danny Shaw reports. Is the thin blue line

:06:01.:06:06.

I've just described - I think we're also the service

:06:51.:06:52.

that is everything That puts a lot of pressure

:06:53.:06:55.

on police officers to try and meet And I'm not convinced

:06:56.:06:59.

it is a sustainable position The Superintendents' Association

:07:00.:07:03.

conducted a survey of its members 72% of those who responded said

:07:04.:07:06.

they did not use all the annual 50% of superintendents said

:07:07.:07:11.

they had signs of anxiety. And over a quarter, 27%,

:07:12.:07:18.

were experiencing symptoms of depression, linked to the demands

:07:19.:07:20.

of working in policing. The Association is known

:07:21.:07:23.

for being the voice of moderation in policing, so its warnings

:07:24.:07:26.

are likely to be taken seriously. The Home Office says it is piloting

:07:27.:07:33.

a new national service to provide welfare support to

:07:34.:07:36.

police who need it. Ministers have also been having

:07:37.:07:38.

discussions with police leaders, amid calls for extra

:07:39.:07:41.

police funding for forces. But no decisions

:07:42.:07:43.

have yet been taken. A disturbance at Birmingham Prison,

:07:44.:07:48.

which lasted for seven Inmates had refused to return

:07:49.:07:51.

to their cells yesterday afternoon, and specialist staff

:07:52.:07:57.

had to be called in. The jail is privately run by G4S,

:07:58.:07:59.

and was the scene of a large-scale disorder in December last year,

:08:00.:08:03.

which resulted in around 240 prisoners being moved

:09:20.:09:22.

will include an address by Nicola Catriona Renton is at

:09:23.:09:25.

the crossing for us now. Now, are they ready? Good morning.

:09:26.:09:36.

Good morning. Well, they are just about ready. You can see what is

:09:37.:09:40.

happening behind us. The finishing touches are being put onto the

:09:41.:09:43.

Queensferry Crossing, ahead of the official opening this morning. We

:09:44.:09:46.

are on the south, Edinburgh side of the bridge. This is where the Queen

:09:47.:09:52.

will arrive, with the Duke of Edinburgh. She will be greeted by

:09:53.:09:55.

the First Minister of Scotland. You can see the lectern, where the

:09:56.:10:01.

moderator from the Church of Scotland will address the bridge. --

:10:02.:10:08.

bless the bridge. There will be pipe bands, plenty of entertainment as

:10:09.:10:12.

well as the ceremony here. It is fitting she is here today on four

:10:13.:10:17.

September, because exactly 53 years ago, on four September 1964, she

opened the fourth road bridge. It sits alongside the bridge built on

the 19th century and this new crossing is one for the 21st

century. It is hoped it will still be operational in at least 120

:10:32.:10:37.

years' time. So this is quite a day and quite a landmark for this new

:10:38.:10:41.

crossing in Scotland. And we can see the weather not looking great there,

:10:42.:10:47.

and it is not looking great at Weston-Super-Mare, either. Keep your

:10:48.:10:54.

comments coming in on that, what it is like to live there, and we will

:10:55.:10:58.

get some memories of holidays from years gone by. How much have things

:10:59.:11:02.

changed? I think Sarah has some coastal action for us now, as well.

:11:03.:11:09.

Good morning to you. Good morning. We have some great pictures coming

:11:10.:11:13.

in from around the coast. This morning quite a misty, murky and

muggy feel. This one was taken on the Gower Peninsula. A low cloud

:11:19.:11:21.

across many parts of the country, but it is quite warm to start the

:11:22.:11:25.

day. This warm front has moved its way from west to east through the

:11:26.:11:29.

course of yesterday, bringing us all that rain and today it is still

:11:30.:11:34.

hanging around. Quite a lot of low cloud and hill fog for Northern

:11:35.:11:38.

Ireland. A grey morning and mild, temperatures of 16 degrees. More

:11:39.:11:41.

persistent rain to the north-west will be more of a player later in

:11:42.:11:44.

the day but certainly affecting the Western Isles of Scotland this

:11:45.:11:48.

morning. The rest of Scotland fairly misty, but some fog around as well.

:11:49.:11:52.

It won't be raining all the time, but it is fairly cloudy in Wales,

:11:53.:11:56.

and so mist and fog. Certainly mild, 70 degrees in Cardiff first thing

:11:57.:12:00.

this morning. Towards the south-west of England a few drizzly showers

:12:01.:12:06.

coming out of that low cloud. So not a fantastic morning visibility light

:12:07.:12:10.

across the coast. There is quite a lot of funkiness here and there are,

:12:11.:12:13.

and some drizzly rain in the south-east of England of England

:12:14.:12:16.

towards East Anglia and Lincolnshire as well -- fogginess. We should see

:12:17.:12:26.

the skies brightening this afternoon and it will feel quite warm and

:12:27.:12:30.

humid. Further north we have a weather front ringing some rain

:12:31.:12:33.

across parts of Northern Ireland and Scotland. Followed by eventually

:12:34.:12:37.

some clear conditions with some sunshine heading into the

:12:38.:12:41.

north-west. 22 or 23 degrees for a few spots, could feel warm and humid

:12:42.:12:45.

later in the day. Into the evening we have this area of rain in

:12:46.:12:49.

northern England and Northern Ireland, and that peps up overnight.

:12:50.:12:53.

Rain pushing across much of Scotland, down towards Wales and the

:12:54.:12:56.

south-west. To the south-east of that area of rain it is still quite

:12:57.:13:00.

murky and mild. Eventually we will start to see those clearer, right

:13:01.:13:03.

conditions heading in from the north-west behind this front. During

:13:04.:13:08.

the day tomorrow we will start with a front sitting right across the

:13:09.:13:12.

country, so cloudy, drizzly startle many of us, with some heavy bursts

:13:13.:13:16.

of rain. Through the day tomorrow things will start to improve as we

:13:17.:13:20.

see a return to sunshine parts of Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales

:13:21.:13:24.

and the south-west. Central and eastern parts of England fairly

:13:25.:13:27.

cloudy, still a few showers around and it won't be quite as warm as it

:13:28.:13:31.

is today, but still temperatures up to around 21 degrees or so.

:13:32.:13:34.

Certainly quite mucky and murky over the next few days. Looking further

:13:35.:13:38.

ahead this week, through the middle of the week it is looking a bit

:13:39.:13:44.

fresher, with a return to some sunny spells. But rings are looking fairly

:13:45.:13:48.

unsettled, and it is set to turn quite wet and quite windy before the

:13:49.:13:52.

end of the week. And we are talking about Britain's coast all week. Do

:13:53.:13:57.

you know how many people live there? I do, only because I have looked it

:13:58.:14:02.

up, 11 million. 11 million is correct. According to a new report

:14:03.:14:06.

the BBC Breakfast, many who live there really struggle financially,

:14:07.:14:10.

finding the economic gap between coastal and non- coastal places has

:14:11.:14:15.

grown. The government is announcing an additional ?40 million to help.

:14:16.:14:19.

We are looking at life in coastal communities.

:14:20.:14:23.

This used to be one of the best and busiest seaside resorts

:14:24.:14:27.

John tells me the story of Ardrossan.

:14:28.:14:43.

Boats going to the Isle of Man, boats going to Belfast...

:14:44.:14:46.

The industry which once employed thousands has gone.

:14:47.:14:53.

A small marina now sits where the busy port once sprawled.

:14:54.:15:06.

There are superyachts, worth hundreds of thousands,

:15:07.:15:08.

but unemployment rates amongst the very

:15:09.:15:10.

In the club, plenty feel left behind.

:15:11.:15:16.

Do you feel that the powers-that-be care

:15:17.:15:23.

about the changes that are going

:15:24.:15:25.

They can't experience the problems, because they don't see it every day.

:15:26.:15:32.

A sense the coast has been left behind is backed

:15:33.:15:35.

Over 80% of people who live in these areas are paid less.

:15:36.:15:40.

The economic gap between coastal and non-coastal communities

:15:41.:15:43.

The reason, probably, that other places have done really

:15:44.:15:51.

well is because governments have

:15:52.:15:52.

We need it now, we don't have time to wait.

:15:53.:16:02.

But here, in the west of Scotland, they are still waiting

:16:03.:16:05.

So much of Whitley Bay's story was the same as Ardrossan,

:16:06.:16:10.

a resort which teemed with holidaymakers, eager to visit

:16:11.:16:17.

the Spanish City, with fair rides, and dancing,

:16:18.:16:19.

But now he has a new top job back in Spanish City.

:16:20.:16:26.

The famous dome, derelict for 17 years, is being

:16:27.:16:29.

ready be reopened with over ?10 million of public money.

:16:30.:16:40.

?2 million has come from the Government's

:16:41.:16:47.

That has invested over ?170 million in the last five years,

:16:48.:16:54.

in areas like this, and is extended today

:16:55.:16:56.

Andrew's walters are gone, but a new restaurant here is a sign

:16:57.:17:04.

of the private money quick

:17:05.:17:06.

Do you think that the Government is doing enough?

:17:07.:17:12.

Well, I think they could do a lot more.

:17:13.:17:14.

If you look around the country, and see how many people

:17:15.:17:17.

are living in these towns, they have almost been left to die,

:17:18.:17:22.

and they're as important as the people who

:17:23.:17:24.

The coast of Britain has an incredible story.

:17:25.:17:28.

Often a white knuckle ride to those that live there.

:17:29.:17:33.

But proof here for successful investment.

:17:34.:17:35.

No proof yet there is enough investment to go around.

:17:36.:17:47.

Joining us as the MP in charge off the coast. Looking at coastal towns,

:17:48.:17:58.

what has gone wrong? There are many challenges, as highlighted in your

:17:59.:18:02.

report. They are often the end of the line where the train lines and

:18:03.:18:10.

road lines. We need to get back to that heyday by creating a year round

:18:11.:18:20.

visitor economy for them. I visited Hastings and Blackpool. It has a lot

:18:21.:18:26.

to offer the people. If we look at where we filmed our piece, only 20%

:18:27.:18:38.

has been paid for. The rest they have to pay themselves. Can we

:18:39.:18:43.

provide cash to make changes? What we are looking at, which is why I am

:18:44.:18:48.

pleased to announce another ?40 million invested in the coastal

:18:49.:18:52.

communities, is a partnership approach. The government puts in

:18:53.:18:57.

money to support the coastal community, including 18, and then

:18:58.:19:00.

the private sector, which is involved in driving forward that

:19:01.:19:07.

economy in that go to town, city, goes to make sure they grow --a

:19:08.:19:17.

team. -- coastal town. But it is spread over five years and the

:19:18.:19:21.

entire coast. Is very enough money? It is spread over two years in

:19:22.:19:30.

England. It means there will be 131 million plus this new cash. We have

:19:31.:19:35.

to be clear. The problems around the coast are not new. In 2012 we were

:19:36.:19:42.

saying they have there own unique problems. You mentioned one of the

:19:43.:19:49.

problems about being at the end of the line. Transport links to many of

:19:50.:19:53.

these communities are difficult. You mentioned it yourself. ?40 million

:19:54.:19:59.

does not solve it. It is about infrastructure. This money is not

:20:00.:20:03.

about infrastructure. It is about bringing coastal communities

:20:04.:20:07.

together to drive forward. Having visited the great British seaside on

:20:08.:20:13.

three occasions, I can say they are great places to visit. In terms of

:20:14.:20:18.

people getting there, the government in the north is investing ?12

:20:19.:20:22.

million to bring infrastructure. Look at places like Hull, benefited

:20:23.:20:32.

by the M62. They are becoming better connected. This is a long-term

:20:33.:20:38.

problem. What do you say to people in these committees they cannot find

:20:39.:20:43.

jobs? There are big challenges with the job market. We are looking at

:20:44.:20:48.

investing money to move away from a seasonal economy to a year round

:20:49.:20:52.

economy. There are big problems for people finding work. Places like

:20:53.:20:58.

Blackpool where we have invested in a new winter gardens conference

:20:59.:21:03.

centre. Extending that season opens up Blackpool again so we can solve

:21:04.:21:07.

these challenges they have. Can anything be done? Looking at this

:21:08.:21:16.

research, it seems the problems are the same. The young people are

:21:17.:21:21.

leaving these parts of the UK. Can something be done to stop that? Is

:21:22.:21:25.

that part of the picture we will see? If I didn't think anything

:21:26.:21:29.

could be done, I would not have this job. What we have done is

:21:30.:21:34.

acknowledge the unique problem faced by coastal communities. Through this

:21:35.:21:39.

find we are investing to grow the economy to make it attractive for

:21:40.:21:43.

young people to live and have their entire career. I know young people

:21:44.:21:52.

with families, if they can get a good job through the year, they

:21:53.:21:56.

would want to live there too, just like all people do. We are

:21:57.:22:02.

discussing that this week. Let us know if you have seen a change and

:22:03.:22:06.

what is going wrong and perhaps what is going right. And now for the main

:22:07.:22:17.

stories this morning. South Korea has carried out

:22:18.:22:19.

a missile drill in response to North Korea's latest nuclear bomb

because of staff cuts and rising crime.

Leading economists say the rise in the cost of living may

:22:52.:22:54.

Sean's here with this and the rest of the business news.

:22:55.:22:58.

Leading economists say the rise in the cost of living may

:22:59.:23:09.

Yes, this is a BBC survey of 30 top economists.

:23:10.:23:14.

Most say they don't expect interest rates to rise until 2019,

:23:15.:23:17.

meaning cheap borrowing but poor savings rates for longer.

:23:18.:23:19.

They also think inflation, which is running faster than pay

:23:20.:23:22.

growth, will start to peak as soon as this autumm,

:23:23.:23:25.

easing the income squeeze on households.

:23:26.:23:26.

The price of unleaded petrol could overtake diesel in the coming

:23:27.:23:29.

days, according to a warning by the RAC.

:23:30.:23:31.

The reason, it says, is the disruption caused

:23:32.:23:34.

The RAC thinks the price of a litre of petrol could rise by up to 4p,

:23:35.:23:40.

bringing it up to levels last seen three years ago.

:23:41.:23:42.

And the first ever UK strike by McDonald's workers has begun.

:23:43.:23:45.

Workers at two sites in Cambridge and south-east London walked out

:23:46.:23:48.

at midnight in a 24-hour dispute over zero-hours

:23:49.:23:50.

Unions say staff want an hourly wage of at least ?10

:23:51.:23:54.

McDonald says it's raised pay three times since April last year.

:23:55.:23:58.

The other thing we are looking at is prices at the pumps.

:23:59.:24:08.

The price of unleaded petrol could go up because of the disruption

:24:09.:24:11.

Prices have been jumpy after a quarter of American production was

:24:12.:24:21.

turned off after the storm. We will talk about the knock-on effect

these live pictures coming in of the coastline this morning. A bit murky.

:24:34.:24:43.

Still stunning. Any day is a good day to go to the beach, but the sun

Neymar and Gabriel Jesus did keepy-uppies for a whole

lap of the pitch. We thought of putting the Benny Hill

music in, but we decided against it. There is a great one at the end

:37:17.:37:22.

which dust doesn't quite make it. -- just doesn't quite make it. I think

:37:23.:37:28.

it was 40. Did you count? I wondered why you had gone quiet. I was just

:37:29.:37:33.

concentrating. They are quite good. If you have never experienced

:37:34.:37:36.

a migraine, the symptoms are a throbbing pain

:37:37.:37:39.

on one side of the head, One in seven people in the UK

:37:40.:37:41.

are thought to suffer from migraines, but a recent survey

:37:42.:37:46.

suggests two thirds of people don't think employers understand

:37:47.:37:49.

the impact they can have. According to figures

:37:50.:37:58.

from the Migraine Trust, around nine million people

:37:59.:38:00.

in Britain are affected Migraine is responsible for 25

:38:01.:38:02.

million lost days at work That is a cost of ?2.25 billion

:38:03.:38:06.

a year to the economy. It is also estimated to cost the NHS

:38:07.:38:10.

?150 million a year in the UK, mostly due to prescriptions

:38:11.:38:15.

and GP visits. We are joined now by Fiona McKenzie,

:38:16.:38:17.

who has suffered migraines since she was 15,

:38:18.:38:19.

and GP Dr Fari Ahmad. People watching this at home

:38:20.:38:30.

thinking have I ever had a migraine? If you have had one, you know about

:38:31.:38:34.

it, don't you? The difference between a headache and a full on

:38:35.:38:38.

migraine is really intense, isn't it? It is astronomical. A full on

:38:39.:38:44.

migraine will leave me in bed. It will leave me with a pillow over my

:38:45.:38:48.

head, unable to do anything, unable to think are unable to cope with

:38:49.:38:54.

life. I tend to live in a darkened on clay of website and smell and

:38:55.:39:00.

light are kept out, because I can't cope with any of those things --

:39:01.:39:11.

darkened on -- enclave where site and smell and light are kept away.

:39:12.:39:18.

The way you tell it, I am sure lots of people out there will have

:39:19.:39:21.

enormous sympathy for you, and you will be echoing some of what they

:39:22.:39:25.

feel. And how common is this, and what can be done? I think you said

:39:26.:39:31.

in your intro, one in seven, one in nine people will have one. I think

:39:32.:39:37.

they are a spectrum, so people can have one migraine a year, the people

:39:38.:39:41.

who are having them every few days. So the treatment very much depends

:39:42.:39:45.

on how it is affecting you. And I think establishing the diagnosis and

:39:46.:39:51.

understanding that you have a migraine helps, and it helps work

:39:52.:39:54.

out what kind of direction you will go in. We don't have a cure for

:39:55.:39:58.

migraines, and it is about understanding and managing what

:39:59.:40:01.

causes your problems, what causes you to have one and how do you deal

:40:02.:40:06.

with it. What are the triggers for you? My dad used to have them, and

:40:07.:40:09.

it was often costly and chocolate that set it off. Is it food related,

:40:10.:40:15.

stress, how does it work to you? There are a combination of triggers,

:40:16.:40:19.

some of them I can manage and handle, and others I can't.

:40:20.:40:24.

Chocolate and red wine are sadly two of my triggers. That is really bad

:40:25.:40:30.

news, isn't it? I can have a little red wine, but not very much, and not

:40:31.:40:35.

very often. But I find a pressure is one of my triggers, as soon as it

:40:36.:40:40.

goes above 1020 mil buys, who knew? I become much more likely to get a

:40:41.:40:52.

migraine. -- millibars. A city is quite a challenging environment for

:40:53.:40:57.

me to be in, and there are more studies into these environmental

:40:58.:41:00.

factors. That is quite hard to manage, I can't control for that

:41:01.:41:04.

kind of thing. What have your employer 's been like, in terms of

:41:05.:41:07.

use managing that, and them understanding where you are coming

:41:08.:41:11.

from? That is an important point to make, some good employers have been

:41:12.:41:16.

willing to talk and listen to how they can best support me. It is fair

:41:17.:41:20.

to say I have also had some pretty rough employment experiences, where

:41:21.:41:24.

people have treated it as if it was just a headache, and they have told

:41:25.:41:29.

me to kind of toughen up a bit, instead of really understanding what

:41:30.:41:34.

it is like for me, and the impact it has on me. I have been very lucky I

:41:35.:41:38.

managed to stay fully employed. At there are a lot of people who suffer

:41:39.:41:46.

from migraines who find it hard to hold down full-time employment, or

:41:47.:41:51.

any employment. And what can employers do to help? I think the

:41:52.:41:55.

biggest thing is communication, and I think it is being able to speak to

:41:56.:41:59.

your employer and saying this is my condition, this is how it affects

:42:00.:42:03.

me. These are the things we can try and look at, and these are the

:42:04.:42:07.

things we can't. I think if you understand what sets it off and the

:42:08.:42:11.

things they can do to help manage, I think that is probably the biggest

:42:12.:42:14.

step to understanding and managing migraines. And you talk so clearly

:42:15.:42:17.

about how debilitating this can be. That can be echoed amongst many

:42:18.:42:23.

other people, can't it? Exactly, and most employers have a legal

:42:24.:42:27.

responsibility. If you're migraines are severe enough to impact on how

:42:28.:42:32.

you work, employers need to make reasonable adjustments at work to

:42:33.:42:35.

help you cope with that. And most good employers take that on-board

:42:36.:42:39.

and try arrange things to get the best for both of you -- try and

:42:40.:42:46.

arrange things. Thank you so much for talking about this. Unless you

:42:47.:42:50.

suffer with them you cannot understand how debilitating they can

:42:51.:42:54.

be. Not all disabilities are visible. It should be registered,

:42:55.:42:59.

even though it can be intermittent. And Ross says I suffer from

:43:00.:43:04.

migraines, and when it is bad enough I get paralysis and need medical

:43:05.:43:14.

attention, the jute, -- feed tube, rehabilitation with walking. You can

:43:15.:43:19.

see that in those conditions it is very difficult to walk through that.

:43:20.:43:24.

If you are feeling like you cannot move, there is no way you can be a

:43:25.:43:28.

productive member of society in that setting. So it is about that support

:43:29.:43:33.

from employers, support from professionals, and support from

:43:34.:43:37.

communities. This conversation is so important right now, because this is

:43:38.:43:41.

about everyone coming around people who have migraines, and helping to

:43:42.:43:45.

understand what it is like for them, and helping to look after and

:43:46.:43:49.

support them through that. A lot of it is actually the anxiety that goes

:43:50.:43:53.

with letting people down. The internal, I guess, frustration and

:43:54.:44:01.

anxiety and exasperation. Can I just quickly ask, how long does it last

:44:02.:44:06.

for you, and what gets rid of it? It is obviously not just paracetamol.

:44:07.:44:12.

Mine can last anywhere between four ours ever get it early, and I take

:44:13.:44:16.

the treatment that I take, too I have had ones that last three or

:44:17.:44:21.

four days. And I will be under a pillow for most of that, I will try

:44:22.:44:25.

and sleep as much as I can. I take preventative medicine twice a day,

:44:26.:44:29.

and that helps a lot, and that has helped me get to the point where I

:44:30.:44:33.

am back and able to look after myself. But it is a tough one, and a

:44:34.:44:37.

lot of people are not seeking treatment for it. So people do need

:44:38.:44:41.

to have conversations with their GPs about it, it is really, really

:44:42.:44:44.

important. Thank you very much for sharing your experiences this

:44:45.:44:45.

morning. Here is Sarah with a look

:44:46.:44:47.

at this morning's weather. A mild and murky theme. Uninspiring

:44:48.:45:08.

this morning. This is in Yorkshire. The reason it is so mild is because

:45:09.:45:14.

of this warm front pushing across the country. It is bringing low

:45:15.:45:19.

cloud. A cold front from the north-west. It will be a player

:45:20.:45:24.

later on. Persistent rain in the west of Northern Ireland in

:45:25.:45:28.

Scotland. Northern Ireland in Scotland, a grey day. Hill fog

:45:29.:45:37.

around. Mist Andrews or. Mild. Temperatures in the mid-teens

:45:38.:45:43.

already. The south-west of England, mist and fog and low cloud. We will

:45:44.:45:51.

see some showers around in the west. Light winds. Fairly mild. Muggy and

:45:52.:45:57.

humid. Dry weather in central and southern England. A few showers for

:45:58.:46:04.

London and up towards East Anglia. Through the day, as the sunshine

:46:05.:46:09.

warms things up, improving pictures, especially in east Wales, the

:46:10.:46:13.

Midlands, southern England. Sunny spells breaking through the cloud.

:46:14.:46:18.

The odd shower. Further north, this is working across Scotland and

:46:19.:46:23.

Northern Ireland. Wetter weather. Clear conditions from the

:46:24.:46:29.

north-west. 17- 22 possibly 23. Not too bad for the first week of

:46:30.:46:34.

September. This evening and overnight, rain in the north and

:46:35.:46:39.

west. Much of Northern Ireland, Scotland, northern England, Wales,

:46:40.:46:45.

quite wet overnight. A weather front pepping up. Humid and murky on

:46:46.:46:50.

Tuesday. Tuesday is dominated by this weather front sitting across

:46:51.:46:55.

most of the country. It will go away towards the east. Tuesday,

:46:56.:47:02.

improving. Breezy and damp and mild. Through the day, this area of rain

:47:03.:47:08.

goes towards the east. Sunshine for Scotland and Northern Ireland and

:47:09.:47:12.

Wales towards the south-west of England as well. Temperatures not as

:47:13.:47:17.

muggy as today. 16- 21. Things will turn more fresh with sunshine and

:47:18.:47:21.

showers during the middle of the week. Back to you. Think you. We are

:47:22.:47:30.

talking about the ongoing effects of Tropical Storm Harvey.

:47:31.:47:35.

Oil prices have been jumpy. Good morning.

:47:36.:47:43.

The consequences of the storm will take some time to play out,

:47:44.:47:46.

of course, particularly with the families of those who died,

:47:47.:47:49.

and those made homeless by the storm.

:47:50.:47:50.

But one of the more immediate effects around the world

:47:51.:47:53.

is the impact on oil extraction and refining around

:47:54.:47:56.

A quarter of the production in the US is offline leaving

:47:57.:48:00.

a shortfall of over four million barrels a day.

:48:01.:48:02.

According to the RAC that's likely to have a big impact on petrol

:48:03.:48:06.

It reckons the price of a litre of petrol could rise

:48:07.:48:09.

by up to 4p per litre, which would take the average price

:48:10.:48:12.

That's a price not seen since December 2014.

:48:13.:48:20.

Let's talk to our guest from the Portland Fuel consultancy.

:48:21.:48:23.

Good morning. How much of a link is there between oil and gas production

:48:24.:48:35.

in America and what we see over here? Oil, petrol, and diesel, are

:48:36.:48:41.

global markets. The US is the biggest consume in the world,

:48:42.:48:44.

consuming 20% of global oil production. Anything they do will

:48:45.:48:52.

impact UK prices and what we pay. When we see a quarter of their

:48:53.:48:58.

production switched off for the time being, what impact do we have?

:48:59.:49:06.

Refineries have all shut down on the Gold Coast largely as a preventative

:49:07.:49:13.

measure. -- Gulf. That is because of the flooding after the storm passed

:49:14.:49:20.

through. That has left a shortfall in the petrol. We have not seen a

:49:21.:49:29.

jump in petrol prices yet. We have not. There is normally a lag between

:49:30.:49:33.

what happens in the wholesale markets and what happens at the

:49:34.:49:37.

pumps. That is usually around 2-3 weeks. Prices have come back into

:49:38.:49:44.

the bit on Friday and this morning. On Thursday night, it looks like

:49:45.:49:57.

prices would be 4-5p, now it is 2-3. Not long ago we were worrying we

:49:58.:50:03.

were going to get 99p. It must have a huge impact when you see a 20%

:50:04.:50:07.

move in the price stability does. The prices we saw at the start of

:50:08.:50:11.

last year were underplayed in terms of how far the market fell with the

:50:12.:50:15.

oil surprise and shale oil production. -- supplies. We have

:50:16.:50:25.

seen it go back up. When you see what petrol companies are doing, do

:50:26.:50:31.

they raise, when prices go up, do they go up quicker when the oil

:50:32.:50:36.

price goes down? People feel they don't go down as quickly. Not at

:50:37.:50:42.

all. We analysed the data going back as far as we can. There is no

:50:43.:50:46.

evidence prices rise faster than they fall. They filter through the

:50:47.:50:51.

wholesale market. Everyone recognises and knows mentally when

:50:52.:51:00.

prices go up. Especially when 1.20 prices are hit. You don't realise

:51:01.:51:05.

when they come back up a bit. The storm in America could make things

:51:06.:51:10.

more volatile? Yes. It is out in the Atlantic. It is going to be the back

:51:11.:51:18.

end of this week before we know what happens after Hurricane Harvey has

:51:19.:51:26.

settled down. Thank you. Petrol prices will be jumpy in the next few

:51:27.:51:29.

weeks. Thank you. You may think life's

:51:30.:51:31.

a beach living by the sea, but according to a report for BBC

:51:32.:51:33.

Breakfast, Britain's seaside communities are among the worst

:51:34.:51:36.

parts of the country The Government is announcing

:51:37.:51:39.

an additional ?40 million to help, but how much difference

:51:40.:51:47.

will it make? As part of a special series

:51:48.:51:49.

we're looking at life Breakfast's Jayne McCubbin

:51:50.:51:51.

is in Weston-Super-Mare How far will the money go? Will it

:51:52.:52:05.

make a difference? She has a giant deckchair. We are bringing us this

:52:06.:52:14.

week around the coast to look at all of the coastal communities to find

:52:15.:52:18.

out what is happening. Today we are talking about investment, money,

:52:19.:52:23.

economic growth. As we have heard this morning, too many of these

:52:24.:52:26.

areas are languishing at the bottom of the table in terms of educational

:52:27.:52:30.

attainment, health, economic growth, in terms of economic value. This

:52:31.:52:37.

place is beautiful this morning. The sun is coming out. It is doing well.

:52:38.:52:43.

It is at the top of the table. We can introduce someone from a

:52:44.:52:49.

monetary foundation. You look at what was happening across the UK

:52:50.:52:57.

from the coast to the centre. We have a cocktail of economic and

:52:58.:53:01.

social problems in the coastal communities of the UK. Something

:53:02.:53:04.

that comes up in the research is how badly paid people are in working

:53:05.:53:11.

coastal communities. You earn ?4000 per year less than someone not in a

:53:12.:53:16.

coastal community. In places like Scarborough, it's even worse. That

:53:17.:53:27.

is stark. It is inevitable, isn't it, that cities, especially London,

:53:28.:53:30.

will get more investment from government because they are of the

:53:31.:53:38.

economy. We just had the government minister talking about something

:53:39.:53:46.

like that. ?40 million is just a drop in the ocean compared to the

:53:47.:53:50.

scale of the problems in the coastal communities of the UK, especially

:53:51.:53:54.

when you compare it to other infrastructure projects taking

:53:55.:53:58.

place. Over ?60 million being sent to expand. ?40 million is not that

:53:59.:54:06.

much in comparison. People say it will trickle down. You think helping

:54:07.:54:12.

lift the coast helps everyone equally. Why is that? We have some

:54:13.:54:16.

of the biggest problems because of economic growth concentrated in a

:54:17.:54:19.

small number of cities, causing housing crises and congestion. We

:54:20.:54:26.

need to spread prosperity out a bit so we can take pressure off housing

:54:27.:54:31.

and the transport network in cities. We need more growth by the coast. We

:54:32.:54:37.

will talk to some of the cheerleaders by the coast. What is

:54:38.:54:48.

the problem. The tourists left in the 60s. When that happened, we had

:54:49.:54:54.

pockets of deprivation. It isn't the whole town, but it is a lot. We have

:54:55.:55:02.

this downward spiral with drugs and alcoholism. It is changing. There is

:55:03.:55:07.

investment. ?40 million is a catalyst for change. It is a start.

:55:08.:55:14.

It will knock on. Is about collaboration with universities and

:55:15.:55:17.

councils and that sort of stuff. Tony Roberston. Tourism is not the

:55:18.:55:33.

answer for everything? It isn't. In Scarborough we want a digital and

:55:34.:55:37.

creative economy. We need more than the rhythm. One of the greatest

:55:38.:55:44.

things is the 2.5 million from the community fund. -- tourism. It has

:55:45.:55:49.

created a market hall. 13 new businesses have been putting it,

:55:50.:55:57.

including artisan food and creating businesses that take people on in

:55:58.:56:01.

jobs are growing businesses to be it is about how to use the money. There

:56:02.:56:06.

is so much to talk about this morning. Hopefully we will have more

:56:07.:56:17.

time later. Tourism is an untapped resource. I wish I could use a hat

:56:18.:56:21.

like that. Hello, this is Breakfast,

this was how North Koreans heard about the "perfect success"

that was their nation's sixth It was more powerful than any before

:03:39.:03:40.

and came with claims that Kim Jong-un now has the ability

:03:41.:03:49.

to order a nuclear strike A few hours later, in Washington,

:03:50.:03:52.

having briefed the President, the US Secretary of Defence gave

:03:53.:04:01.

this very stark warning. Any threat to the United States

:04:02.:04:03.

or its territories, including Guam, or our allies, will be met

:04:04.:04:05.

with a massive military response, a response both

:04:06.:04:08.

effective and overwhelming. China has a crucial

:04:09.:04:14.

role to play in this. Hosting a handful of world

:04:15.:04:16.

leaders at a summit, President Xi Jinping urged restraint

:04:17.:04:21.

on all sides. The leaders of China and Russia

:04:22.:04:26.

promised to deal appropriately The leader wants to focus on even

:04:27.:04:29.

tougher economic sanctions, as the United Nations Security

:04:30.:04:38.

Council meets later. We will be speaking to somebody who

:04:39.:04:51.

is from North Korea in the next couple of moments or so.

:04:52.:04:54.

There's a warning that policing in England and Wales is facing

:04:55.:04:57.

a "perfect storm" because of rising crime and staff shortages.

:04:58.:04:59.

The President of the Police Superintendents' Association,

:05:00.:05:04.

Gavin Thomas, will tell the group's annual conference today

:05:05.:05:06.

that the government should review funding and resources.

:05:07.:05:08.

Our home affairs correspondent, Danny Shaw reports.

:05:09.:05:10.

Is the thin blue line becoming too thin?

:05:11.:05:12.

Yes, says the Police Superintendents' Association.

:05:13.:05:16.

It's the organisation which represents 1,000

:05:17.:05:20.

middle-ranking officers, the men and women who make the key

:05:21.:05:23.

The superintendents are concerned that there are fewer police

:05:24.:05:27.

officers, working harder and working longer hours, in a more

:05:28.:05:30.

The man who leads the organisation believes that is a model of policing

:05:31.:05:34.

I think it's the service of first resort, I think it's

:05:35.:05:42.

the service of last resort, for many people, understandably.

:05:43.:05:44.

And I think also, what I've just described -

:05:45.:05:48.

I think we're also the service that is everything

:05:49.:05:50.

That puts a lot of pressure on police officers to try and meet

:05:51.:05:56.

that expectation from the public and I'm not convinced

:05:57.:06:00.

it's a sustainable position, in the mid-to-long term.

:06:01.:06:04.

The Superintendents' Association conducted a survey of its members

:06:05.:06:06.

72% of those who responded said they did not use all the annual

:06:07.:06:12.

50% of superintendents said they had signs of anxiety.

:06:13.:06:20.

And over a quarter, 27%, were experiencing symptoms

:06:21.:06:23.

of depression, linked to the demands of working in policing.

:06:24.:06:28.

The Association is known for being the voice of moderation in policing,

:06:29.:06:31.

so its warnings are likely to be taken seriously.

:06:32.:06:35.

The Home Office says it is piloting a new national service to provide

:06:36.:06:38.

welfare support to police who need it.

:06:39.:06:41.

Ministers have also been having discussions with police leaders,

:06:42.:06:43.

amid calls for extra police funding for forces.

:06:44.:06:45.

But no decisions have yet been taken.

:06:46.:06:52.

A rise in interest rates won't take place for more than a year

:06:53.:06:55.

and the squeeze in the cost of living may soon be easing.

:06:56.:07:01.

This is according to a BBC survey of 30 leading economists.

:07:02.:07:10.

Sean has been speaking to one. Good news? Particularly the bit on the

:07:11.:07:16.

big squeeze we have talked about that for months because prices have

:07:17.:07:19.

been rising faster than wages, but the economists generally think they

:07:20.:07:23.

work for a lot of banks and do a lot of advising to businesses and to the

:07:24.:07:26.

Government. What they say is important. They think that by the

:07:27.:07:30.

beginning of next year we should see wages rising faster than prices

:07:31.:07:35.

which is a good thing for anybody who haven't seen the rises and when

:07:36.:07:38.

it comes to interest rates they think that actually a lot of them,

:07:39.:07:41.

the most of these economists think there won't be a rise until 2019. So

:07:42.:07:48.

that would make it ten years of very, very low interest rates. If

:07:49.:07:53.

you are a saver you would be banging your head against a brick wall

:07:54.:07:57.

thinking when am I going to get a better return? Anyone looking to a

:07:58.:08:03.

fixed term mortgage, first-time buyers will be thinking how long do

:08:04.:08:08.

I fix for? No rises until 2019 the economists think and hopefully the

:08:09.:08:11.

squeeze on wages will be lighter in the early part of next year.

:08:12.:08:16.

Thank you very much, Sean. The thing I admire about you more than

:08:17.:08:20.

anything else is your ability to sneeze more than anything else! She

:08:21.:08:26.

had four or five and managed to hold them all in!

:08:27.:08:30.

I thought you were laughing at my story!

:08:31.:08:36.

Not even a whisper. Incredible. You will have to teach me how to do

:08:37.:08:38.

that later. Figures from last year show more

:08:39.:08:42.

in its history. Hundreds of homes

:09:06.:09:08.

have been evacuated. The fires, covering about 5,000

:09:09.:09:10.

acres, started on Friday, and have sent plumes of smoke over

:09:11.:09:12.

the city. The landmark Queensferry Crossing

:09:13.:09:19.

will be officially opened by the Queen and the Duke

:09:20.:09:23.

of Edinburgh later this morning. The ceremony at 11 o'clock

:09:24.:09:26.

will include an address Catriona Renton is at

:09:27.:09:28.

the crossing for us now. It has been quite a build up to

:09:29.:09:40.

this, leant it? It certainly has. This is the next landmark in this

:09:41.:09:45.

bridge's short history so far. Now, you will see the finishing touches

:09:46.:09:49.

are being made. It is very quiet at the moment, but don't let that fool

:09:50.:09:53.

you. When the Queen arrives she will be greeted by the First Minister,

:09:54.:09:57.

Nicola Sturgeon, the bridge will be blessed by the moderator of the

:09:58.:10:01.

General Assembly of the Church of Scotland and then the royal party

:10:02.:10:06.

will cut the ribband and make their way across the bridge. There have

:10:07.:10:10.

been a number of events so far to mark the opening of this bridge. Not

:10:11.:10:15.

least at the weekend when 50,000 people selected from a ballot were

:10:16.:10:19.

allowed to walks across. That's the only time that will ever happen and

:10:20.:10:24.

that's because this will be a motorway. Let me say to you that it

:10:25.:10:28.

is really important and fitting that today has been choosing, 4th

September because on 4th September 1964 the Queen opened the Forth Road

Bridge. That was a bridge for the 20th century. It sits alongside the

:10:40.:10:43.

railway crossing and here we have it, the bridge for the 21st century

:10:44.:10:47.

and beyond. Thank you very much.

:10:48.:10:56.

I thought Sarah was going to give us the weather, but that's in five

:10:57.:11:00.

minutes. Months of escalating

:11:01.:11:04.

rhetoric between North Korea and the United States culminated

:11:05.:11:08.

in claims of a successful nuclear weapons test

:11:09.:11:10.

by Pyongyang over the weekend. News of the test was

:11:11.:11:12.

announced on the state's TV TRANSLATION: The test of a hydrogen

:11:13.:11:29.

bomb was a perfect success. It was a very meaningful step in completing

:11:30.:11:32.

the national nuclear weapons programme. That was the official

:11:33.:11:39.

announcement on state television. The South Korean Government said

:11:40.:11:43.

there are signs there could be more missile tests by the north.

:11:44.:11:45.

Let's speak to our correspondent Robin Brant, who's in Seoul.

:11:46.:11:47.

What's the latest there this morning?

:11:48.:11:58.

Officials saying they have seen evidence of possible preparations

:11:59.:12:08.

for another round of a launch of North Korea's Intercontinental

:12:09.:12:11.

ballistic missiles. If it is the case this will be a repetition of

:12:12.:12:18.

what we saw a few days ago. It would be highly provocative, of course and

:12:19.:12:22.

it would come if there were to be any kind of launch just off the back

:12:23.:12:27.

of the country's sixth test of its nuclear weapon that we saw just some

:12:28.:12:34.

24 hours ago. It is interesting the response in South Korea has been

:12:35.:12:38.

from the country's military. We have seen a live fire drill take place

:12:39.:12:45.

where the Air Force and the army simulated an attack by targeted an

:12:46.:12:49.

area of the sea that they say was meant to replicate an attack on that

:12:50.:12:53.

nuclear test site in the north. Robin, thank you very much.

:12:54.:13:01.

Let's talk to Jihyun Park who grew up in North Korea

:13:02.:13:04.

She decided to flee North Korea when her brother

:13:05.:13:07.

was beaten to almost death for leaving the army.

:13:08.:13:10.

She fled to China before eventually moving here in 2008 with her family.

:13:11.:13:16.

Good morning. Thank you very much for coming back on the programme.

:13:17.:13:24.

How will the news be reflected in North Korea today? Will people be

:13:25.:13:33.

hearing what the reaction is? There is one channel TV and one newspaper

:13:34.:13:43.

and one channel radio. At the start of the early 1990s we do not watch

:13:44.:13:48.

the TV and the newspaper not allowed and we can't listen to the radio.

:13:49.:13:53.

Now days many people don't know what is happening outside the country.

:13:54.:13:57.

How much knowledge, when you were living there, did you have about

:13:58.:14:00.

outside countries, about the United States, about Great Britain for

:14:01.:14:08.

example? We learned about the United States, it was a hate country

:14:09.:14:17.

including South Korea and I never learned about the United Kingdom,

:14:18.:14:28.

just only England. The man is wearing the hat and the woman is

:14:29.:14:32.

wearing the dress, the gentlemen and ladies, but when I arrived in the UK

:14:33.:14:37.

I didn't find any gentlemen... Very different to what you were taught.

:14:38.:14:41.

Things have changed a bit. You have still got family back in North

:14:42.:14:45.

Korea, is that right? Do you ever think you will see them again? Do

:14:46.:14:50.

you have any correspondence with those members of your family or

:14:51.:14:56.

friends from back home? No, I separated from my brother in the

:14:57.:15:04.

1990s so after six years after I also repatriate to North Korea and I

:15:05.:15:08.

asked many people about my brother, but nobody knows about my brother.

:15:09.:15:14.

So my brother has it is appeared. Sorry to hear that. Do you think

:15:15.:15:21.

that people who are living in North Korea now, how will they feel about

:15:22.:15:26.

the escalating tension? Will they be concerned about what is happening

:15:27.:15:31.

outside the country? Do you think it is, we're doing the right thing and

:15:32.:15:33.

we will be victorious? Once a week we talk about nuclear

:15:34.:15:55.

weapons. I believe that North Korea is a strong country, but in the late

:15:56.:16:10.

1990s, there was famine, many people escaped North Korea and went to

:16:11.:16:13.

Thailand, and so they are different countries, this is not like the

:16:14.:16:22.

1980s. There are 30,000 people living outside of North Korea, who

:16:23.:16:28.

are contacting family in North Korea. People are changing their

:16:29.:16:31.

minds about the North Korea system, but they know it is still dangerous.

:16:32.:16:37.

There are systems so they cannot speak out. How concerned are you by

:16:38.:16:42.

what is going on, and do you think the North Koreans, the regime is

:16:43.:16:46.

considering war, and firing nuclear missiles? A few weeks ago, North

:16:47.:16:57.

Korea said that they would be launching missiles, and then they

:16:58.:17:00.

did exactly that. Many people are worried about this.

:17:01.:17:12.

The American arming our lives in South Korea, so... -- the American

:17:13.:17:21.

army now lives in South Korea. Really interesting insight, often we

:17:22.:17:39.

speak to people who have never been to North Korea, the report to us

:17:40.:17:43.

from Seoul, people talking about what they think may be happening

:17:44.:17:46.

inside the country, so thank you for telling us so much about what it is

:17:47.:17:49.

like to live there and what people may be going through.

:17:50.:17:58.

A lot of cloud to start the day, some drizzle, mild out there, due

:17:59.:18:12.

mid-late on today. Here is a scene from one of our weather Watchers,

:18:13.:18:16.

Hornsea, in the East Riding, similar pictures up and down the country,

:18:17.:18:21.

low cloud, bringing missed and hill fog, the cheekily around coastal

:18:22.:18:25.

hills in the West, this warm front that is the culprit, bringing low

:18:26.:18:28.

cloud and murky field to the weather, heavy rain as it moves

:18:29.:18:33.

East, and today, we have the remnants of that cloud and outbreaks

:18:34.:18:37.

of grisly rain. More persistent rain for Northern Ireland and for

:18:38.:18:41.

Scotland. Much of England and Wales will have quite a lot of dry weather

:18:42.:18:44.

but there will be a few showers coming. Sunshine returning for

:18:45.:18:52.

Enniskillen, Londonderry as well, and some sunshine towards the North

:18:53.:18:56.

West of Scotland. Elsewhere for Scotland and Northern Ireland, a lot

:18:57.:18:59.

of cloud bringing outbreaks of rain on the frontal system, low cloud

:19:00.:19:04.

means hill fog and drizzle, too, mild for this time of year. In the

:19:05.:19:09.

sunnier spots, 22, 20 three degrees. Feeling quite warm. Also the chance

:19:10.:19:13.

of catching a few showers, particularly across parts of Wales

:19:14.:19:17.

and down towards the south-west of England. Relatively light wind,

:19:18.:19:21.

relatively warm, some outbreaks of drizzle and shower room rain. Sunny

:19:22.:19:26.

spells through parts of central and southern England, brightening up

:19:27.:19:30.

towards the London region. A chance of a few showers through the

:19:31.:19:34.

afternoon. Into the evening, rain pepping up, particularly in parts of

:19:35.:19:39.

northern England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales as well. Overnight,

:19:40.:19:43.

that will bring outbreaks of rain. Towards the south-east of the

:19:44.:19:46.

frontal system, drier tonight, mild and murky. Clearer conditions

:19:47.:19:52.

eventually working into the far north-west of the country. Through

:19:53.:19:56.

the day, we have still got this frontal system lingering around.

:19:57.:20:00.

That will bring outbreaks of rain, cloudy conditions through the day,

:20:01.:20:04.

but it will be an improving sort of day. Rain for Northern Ireland,

:20:05.:20:08.

Scotland, England and Wales, but these in the way towards the east.

:20:09.:20:15.

Eastern England staying cloudy. For Scotland, Northern Ireland, down

:20:16.:20:19.

towards Wales and the south-west, a return to brightness tomorrow.

:20:20.:20:21.

Temperatures not quite as warm as today, still 16 to 21 degrees,

:20:22.:20:26.

feeling quite pleasant where we do see the sunshine coming through.

:20:27.:20:31.

After a mild and humid feel to the weather, turning fresh, by

:20:32.:20:34.

Wednesday, cooler conditions, with a mix of sunshine and showers, and in

:20:35.:20:38.

the true autumnal style, the weather is going downhill to end the week

:20:39.:20:42.

and we will see some wet and windy weather, returning back to you both.

:20:43.:20:49.

Autumnal, cannot believe you have mentioned it. There we have, the

:20:50.:20:55.

A-bomb... (!) LAUGHTER Dresses with dinosaurs and a tutus

:20:56.:21:05.

labelled for "girls and boys" - gender neutral clothing is a subject

:21:06.:21:07.

we're hearing more and more about. Now it's emerged John Lewis is

:21:08.:21:10.

getting rid of gender specific sections in its stores. We went to

:21:11.:21:12.

find out what some children what they think about girls and boys

:21:13.:21:14.

clothes. Boys and girls can wear the same

:21:15.:21:30.

things. And they could ride the same things as well. Like a boy could

:21:31.:21:34.

wear pink and a girl could wear blue. Like me. He can wear pink and

:21:35.:21:43.

carry it off, I like blue, I am not saying there should be certain

:21:44.:21:46.

colours or anything, that should be discouraged, whatever you feel

:21:47.:21:49.

comfortable wearing, that should be it. To me, unisex is a bit bland. It

:21:50.:21:58.

would be good if T-shirts that have pirates and stuff like that were for

:21:59.:22:03.

girls also. Would be nice to see a girls T-shirt that is pink that

:22:04.:22:08.

says, adventurer, more active, this, that and the other, does not need to

:22:09.:22:13.

be tied to a colour or style. William likes stuff like cars and

:22:14.:22:17.

dinosaurs and I don't like stuff like that.

:22:18.:22:30.

Cheryl Rickman is co-founder of campaign group Let Clothes Be

:22:31.:22:33.

Clothes. She joins us from central London. Thanks for joining us, I

:22:34.:22:37.

don't want to be overly negative but for many it seems that this is adult

:22:38.:22:42.

putting their politically correct attitude onto children, many of whom

:22:43.:22:47.

do not care. It is not politically correct to want the best for your

:22:48.:22:51.

child, this is just about removing labels, not about removing gender

:22:52.:22:54.

but removing labels, instead of saying, this is for boys, this is

:22:55.:22:58.

for girls and you will fit into these boxes, it is actually saying,

:22:59.:23:02.

this is for girls and boys, which is what John Lewis are putting on

:23:03.:23:07.

labels. It is giving them more choice. You are right, my child does

:23:08.:23:13.

not care, she will buy things from the boys while, but there is lots of

:23:14.:23:17.

children who do care, and have stopped buying the things they like

:23:18.:23:20.

because they have been told that is not for you. The knock-on effect can

:23:21.:23:27.

be very negative, some of the girls are showing lower self-esteem and

:23:28.:23:32.

boys are showing lower emotional intelligence. I think that has kind

:23:33.:23:36.

of started from this gender stereotyping in clothing and toys. I

:23:37.:23:40.

can understand that, as some people were mentioning before we came to

:23:41.:23:43.

you, there is a difference between, you know, being annoyed at the pink

:23:44.:23:49.

T-shirt that says, I am a princess, and a blue T-shirt that says, I want

:23:50.:23:54.

to be a builder, and the step from that to unisex clothing. You can

:23:55.:23:58.

understand, I'm sure, many people saying, why are you ignoring

:23:59.:24:02.

biological differences between boys and girls when it comes to clothing.

:24:03.:24:10.

There are biological differences between boys and girls, but gender

:24:11.:24:15.

is basically the social constructs that we read them and say, girls are

:24:16.:24:20.

meant to be pretty and passive and pink and boys are meant to be tough

:24:21.:24:25.

and here comes trouble and so on. And so I think that is being put in

:24:26.:24:30.

thing, we are trying to enable clothing to be sold without putting

:24:31.:24:37.

them into boxes. Gender neutral, the problem is, people think it is

:24:38.:24:41.

beige, but it is not, it is hoping it up to the whole spectrum of

:24:42.:24:46.

colour. -- opening it up. So if you are a boy or girl, go to the jump a

:24:47.:24:50.

while, swap the entire spectrum, you are removing, this is for boys, this

:24:51.:24:55.

is for girls, from the equation, that is all that it is, it is not

:24:56.:24:59.

flooding the aisles with the colour beige, it is about colour and

:25:00.:25:03.

letting girls have pirates tops. Vice versa. You choose, you be

:25:04.:25:10.

yourself, let kids be kids, let clothes be close. Some of the

:25:11.:25:13.

comments coming in. Blender, both my girls prefer the colour blue, the

:25:14.:25:17.

oldest especially would not pay pink if you paid her. Well done John

:25:18.:25:21.

Lewis, says Kate, company making modern changes. There is nothing to

:25:22.:25:26.

stop kids being dressed however they like. Years ago, boys were dressed

:25:27.:25:33.

in pink, fashion changes. Ridiculous, our John Lewis going to

:25:34.:25:40.

eliminate men's and women's. -- are. Jim says, this is a gimmick, there

:25:41.:25:45.

are gender differences, removing tags will not alter that at all.

:25:46.:25:51.

What is your reaction to some of those comments? I think that just

:25:52.:25:53.

shows... Good to hear there is lots of support, and the John Lewis

:25:54.:25:58.

website, for example has got lots of support there, but I think that the

:25:59.:26:05.

key thing there is we do not... We do not want to... It is not about...

:26:06.:26:10.

The last comment, it is not about removing gender. Yes, there are

:26:11.:26:15.

differences between boys and girls, actually very small, they found out,

:26:16.:26:18.

in their brains, and the differences tend to be from the experiences they

:26:19.:26:24.

have and the messages they say. We are not getting rid of gender, we

:26:25.:26:28.

are only getting rid of labels to enable them to be all that they are.

:26:29.:26:32.

So that they can choose from the wide spectrum of toys and clothes,

:26:33.:26:37.

and be proud to be all that they are rather than put into these

:26:38.:26:42.

categories, which can be damaging. It is a very good step forward and

:26:43.:26:46.

hopefully other retailers will take on the bat on and run with it.

:26:47.:26:51.

Because it is a very positive step and very important to communicate it

:26:52.:26:54.

is not about getting rid of gender, it is about taking it out of the

:26:55.:27:01.

equation, to give choice. -- baton. Thank you very much for your time,

:27:02.:27:02.

we would love to know what you think that, get in touch. And thank you

:27:03.:27:08.

for getting in touch about our series on coastal Britain, we are on

Hello, this is Breakfast with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin.

:30:37.:30:49.

Thank you for joining us. The headlines: The US says it's ready to

use nuclear capabilities to defend itself and allies from threats from

:30:58.:31:01.

North Korea. The White House issued the statement following a

:31:02.:31:04.

conversation between Donald Trump and the Japanese Prime Minister. It

:31:05.:31:08.

was made in response to North Korea's sixth and most powerful

Police officers responsible for the day to day decisions that

from anxiety and a quarter have symptoms of depression.

:31:21.:31:24.

That's the finding of a new report by the Police Superintendents'

:31:25.:31:27.

A disturbance at Birmingham prison which lasted seven hours has ended.

:31:28.:31:43.

Inmates refused to return to their cells in the afternoon and

:31:44.:31:48.

specialist staff were called in. It's privately run by G4S and was

:31:49.:31:52.

the scene of a large scale disorder in December last year which resulted

:31:53.:31:56.

in around 240 prisoners being moved out of the facility. A rise in

:31:57.:32:00.

interest rates won't take place for more than a year according to a BBC

:32:01.:32:04.

survey of economists. Most are also predicting that pay rises will

:32:05.:32:07.

continue to fall behind inflation until the spring of next year,

:32:08.:32:12.

continuing the renewed squeeze on the average earners' living

:32:13.:32:15.

standards. Figures from last year showed that more than 450 relatives

:32:16.:32:20.

of organ donors declined permission to donate because they were unsure

:32:21.:32:26.

of their relatives' wishes. NHS Blood Transplant says donors

:32:27.:32:29.

should ensure they've told their families what they want. Last year,

:32:30.:32:35.

457 people died while own active transplant waiting list. A state of

:32:36.:32:39.

emergency has been declared in LA as the city there battles the worst

:32:40.:32:42.

wild giers in their history. Hundreds of homes have been

:32:43.:32:48.

evacuated. The fires which have been covering 5,000 acres started on

:32:49.:32:51.

Friday and have sent plumes of smoke over the city.

If you are a fan of stamps and Star Wars, your dreams are answered. Have

:32:55.:33:02.

a look at these! The characters will be finding their way to an envelope

:33:03.:33:06.

near you soon as part of a special edition of stamps to mark the

:33:07.:33:11.

release of new Star Wars films in December. There'll be the

:33:12.:33:18.

characters, spaceships and some have details in fluorescent ink only

:33:19.:33:22.

visible if you have a handy UV light at home. It's exciting. I'm ramping

:33:23.:33:27.

up my Star Wars excitement as we speak. The stamps have taken me to

:33:28.:33:31.

level seven, yes. Victoria Derbyshire is on at 9

:33:32.:33:35.

o'clock this morning on BBC2. Good morning Victoria,

:33:36.:33:40.

what are you covering today? Today we look into the world of

:33:41.:33:51.

murky dodgy raffles on Facebook, offered prizes a shotgun, monkey.

:33:52.:33:57.

The number of complaints about illegal raffles on Facebook have

:33:58.:34:00.

tripled since 2013. It was a couple of quid. The point being she took

:34:01.:34:05.

money for a raffle and then didn't put my numbers on the raffle and

:34:06.:34:10.

when it was queried, she started the nastiness. I paid for the raffles

:34:11.:34:15.

and the page wasn't there any more. I tried to in-box the girl and she

:34:16.:34:17.

blocked me. The gripping BBC drama,

:34:18.:34:21.

Doctor Foster's back We'll be joined by actor

:34:22.:34:30.

Bertie Carvel, who plays Simon. We'll be cooking up a storm

:34:31.:34:38.

on Weston-super-Mare seafront, finding out what it takes to make

:34:39.:34:42.

coastal Britain great again. And the revenge thriller

:34:43.:34:45.

'Tin Star' is already causing Actor Genevieve O'Reilly stars in it

:34:46.:34:48.

- she'll join us later. But first let's get

:34:49.:34:55.

the sport with Sally. Britain's Lewis Hamilton won

:34:56.:35:03.

the Italian Grand Prix in dominant style to take the lead

:35:04.:35:07.

in the drivers' championship A day after breaking

:35:08.:35:12.

the all-time record for pole positions, Hamilton was in total

:35:13.:35:18.

control at Monza, fnishing ahead of team-mate Valtteri Bottas

:35:19.:35:21.

for a Mercedes one-two. Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel

:35:22.:35:25.

was third and is now three Sharapova is out of the US Open. The

:35:26.:35:41.

former world number one had been in really good form up until that

:35:42.:35:47.

point. Her return to Grand Slam tennis after a 15-month doping ban,

:35:48.:35:50.

of course. She lost in the third round.

:35:51.:35:54.

Sharapova says she's still proud of her performance. There are a lot of

:35:55.:36:01.

positives playing four matches, playing in front of a big crowd and

:36:02.:36:06.

fans and just competing, you know, being in that competitive

:36:07.:36:10.

environment. It's what I missed. You can't replicate that anywhere.

:36:11.:36:14.

Especially at a grand slam. Qualification for next year's World

:36:15.:36:17.

Cup continues this evening with three of the Home Nations in action.

:36:18.:36:20.

Scotland host Malta, Northern Ireland take on the Czech Republic

:36:21.:36:24.

and England will play Slovakia. Jordan Henderson will be captain

:36:25.:36:28.

once again. Fresh from Friday's slightly flattering 4-0 win in

:36:29.:36:31.

Malta, England have the chance to move five points clear at the top of

:36:32.:36:38.

their group. Gareth Southgate has called on his side to excite the

:36:39.:36:43.

Wembley crowd. It's a great opportunity for us. A home game. We

:36:44.:36:48.

are playing good opposition. We have got to make sure that we are

:36:49.:36:53.

tactically prepared which we will be. But also we have got to have

:36:54.:36:57.

belief in the team we've got. We've got some exciting players and we

:36:58.:37:01.

want to go and show that. Shall we have a look at some proper

:37:02.:37:06.

excitement. If he wants his footballers to excite the crowd.

:37:07.:37:10.

Maybe they should be copying the Brazilians. This is training ahead

:37:11.:37:17.

of the qualifier against Colombia. Neymar and Jesus did keepy-uppies,

:37:18.:37:21.

so many of them, we had to speed them up. Some Samba music as well.

:37:22.:37:28.

There we go! Easy! Surely we can all do that! Flick, twist, there we go,

:37:29.:37:34.

a turn, back heel. Bomb's your uncle. 49 that time. It's gone up. I

:37:35.:37:41.

didn't count early enough before. That is impressive. They were

:37:42.:37:45.

getting more and more elabour rate as they went. -- elaborate.

:37:46.:37:49.

Thank you very much. The gripping TV drama Doctor Foster

:37:50.:37:51.

is returning to our screens If you haven't seen it yet,

:37:52.:37:55.

it's about a doctor We'll be speaking to actor Bertie

:37:56.:38:00.

Carvel who plays Simon in a moment. But first, here he is alongside

:38:01.:38:07.

co-star Suranne Jones Can't have 15 years of marriage

:38:08.:38:11.

and just switch it off, can you? I thought you were doing

:38:12.:38:26.

all right in London. Doing all right financially

:38:27.:38:35.

but Tom's here. I know you've not seen us together

:38:36.:38:38.

since it happened but whatever he goes back and tells you,

:38:39.:38:41.

we get on quite well. Yeah, well, I'd like to see more

:38:42.:38:44.

of him and Kate's friends are here, her family, it's clearly the best

:38:45.:38:48.

thing to do. No, the difficult thing

:38:49.:38:51.

was leaving in the first place but that was the right thing

:38:52.:38:53.

at the time, wasn't it? Yes, I did, to give you space,

:38:54.:38:57.

but hopefully two years is enough. We get a sheet, don't we, about the

:38:58.:39:15.

series and what is coming up and there is a massive long list on here

:39:16.:39:21.

in bold saying, stuff we cannot talk about for the second series. Bertie

:39:22.:39:25.

joins us now. There's nothing I can say, I don't know why I'm here. You

:39:26.:39:29.

can tell us there is a new series? It starts tomorrow night at 9. You

:39:30.:39:36.

are in it? Still. And yes, I think I make it... Nearly to the end. No,

:39:37.:39:46.

that sounds like I'm giving Away something. There's literally nothing

:39:47.:39:50.

I can say. The devil is in the detail in terms of character. But

:39:51.:39:56.

any tiny comment I make, I feel is going to be splashed across... You

:39:57.:40:00.

play him absolutely brilliantly and people will have their judgments. Do

:40:01.:40:05.

you like him, as a character, I mean if you met him would you like him? I

:40:06.:40:09.

don't think we'd have an awful lot in common. OK. That's as far as I'll

:40:10.:40:15.

be drawn. I think I make a rule of trying to leave my judgment at the

:40:16.:40:19.

door when it comes to playing characters. While you are looking

:40:20.:40:22.

after them and playing them, it's quite important to sort of keep an

:40:23.:40:30.

objective neutrality. Afterwards, it will all come out, I'll write a

:40:31.:40:34.

diary piece about what I really think about Simon Foster but for the

:40:35.:40:38.

time being I have to be on his side a bit. Both you and Suranne Jones'

:40:39.:40:47.

character, it's intense. What is it like off set? Do you have to stay in

:40:48.:40:50.

the characters or is it laughs and jokes when you are filming? We are

:40:51.:40:58.

both serious, take our work seriously and the schedule of making

:40:59.:41:01.

a television programme is that you do have to stay relatively focussed

:41:02.:41:06.

between takes, but no, I'm not someone who insists on being called

:41:07.:41:12.

Simon off set. Not at the moment anyway. OK. Just tell us, it's so

:41:13.:41:19.

exciting to go back into a seeked series. When did you know there was

:41:20.:41:25.

going to be a seeked Searle series? -- second series. The response was

:41:26.:41:31.

amazing in the first series, so those conversations were going on.

:41:32.:41:34.

Then I think between the fourth and fifth episode, I had a conversation

:41:35.:41:40.

with the producers and with Mike Butler who wrote it and they talked

:41:41.:41:43.

about their ideas about where it might go. It was the morning they

:41:44.:41:48.

were going into the BBC to pitch the idea. They left it a bit late. So

:41:49.:41:56.

they said, we'll have to ask Bertie if he's interested and we talked

:41:57.:42:00.

about where it might go. Then we spent some time developing the

:42:01.:42:04.

scripts. One of the things that is great fun, we had a long lead time

:42:05.:42:09.

because Suranne went and had a baby. So there was a delay in filming.

:42:10.:42:14.

What that meant was that there could be a healthy prep period and lots of

:42:15.:42:19.

good conversations. One thing that often happens is you don't get a lot

:42:20.:42:24.

of rehearsals, so those conversations worked out. Psychology

:42:25.:42:30.

is valuable. What is the secret of its success. We have seen the first

:42:31.:42:35.

episode before you came in. You have seep it already! What is it that's

:42:36.:42:41.

connected with viewers? Fabulous acting, obviously. Obviously. I

:42:42.:42:48.

think it's... I don't know, I guess it taps into an anxiety that lots of

:42:49.:42:53.

people can relate to, the anxiety of being cheated on, lied to. Hopefully

:42:54.:42:58.

it's something to do with recognisable psychology and

:42:59.:43:01.

character and I think Mike is brilliant at writing the epic in the

:43:02.:43:05.

every day and the fact is that when these things happen in life, you end

:43:06.:43:10.

up doing the most extraordinary things that wouldn't be out of place

:43:11.:43:17.

in a TV drama. But he's very good at tying that to real life and

:43:18.:43:21.

something every day is recognisable when he's writing it in a way that's

:43:22.:43:28.

very relatable. Of course, you starred in a completely different

:43:29.:43:34.

thing, Matilda. That must have been great fun to do? It was fantastic.

:43:35.:43:41.

It was a magical time. Started off in Stratford-upon-Avon in 2010 in

:43:42.:43:44.

the coldest winter I can remember. I was living on a house boat on a

:43:45.:43:49.

frozen canal, like something out of Roald Dahl, and driving in to work

:43:50.:43:55.

in a sort of tin car. Then I ended up three years later on Broadway

:43:56.:43:58.

having the time of my life, you know. It was a really magical time

:43:59.:44:04.

and because of the way the show is built, different teams of kids when

:44:05.:44:10.

we started out, three whole teams of whole casts of kids, you know, so I

:44:11.:44:16.

made all these new young friends and we did it on Broadway so this is an

:44:17.:44:21.

amazing family of Matilda people. It was great fun. This is you playing

:44:22.:44:33.

Rupert Murdoch as well. This guy is the only bloody fellow with the

:44:34.:44:36.

British nuclear codes. I know who he is. It's his finger on the button.

:44:37.:44:42.

What do they want? To overthrow the Government.

:44:43.:44:43.

What? Yes, bring down Wilson, high spending, the national dead and all

:44:44.:44:51.

that. It is their responsibility to

:44:52.:45:03.

reverse the democratic choices they pretend to defend and replace the

:45:04.:45:07.

government. A military coup. I was there at this time at The Mirror.

:45:08.:45:13.

Don't you think I would have many executives were plotting? I was part

:45:14.:45:16.

of this circle. And yet funnily enough, you are not in the picture.

:45:17.:45:21.

I love that! And you come from a long line of journalists. Did that

:45:22.:45:25.

influence your decision to play somebody like Rupert Murdoch? Yes, I

:45:26.:45:30.

am wearing my grandad's watch for luck. He wrote for the Evening

:45:31.:45:35.

Standard and his dad was an The Star and my father was an The Guardian.

:45:36.:45:42.

Absolutely. Fleet Street Fox Inc, in some way, is in my veins.

:45:43.:45:54.

-- Ink is in my veins. There is something in acting that is akin to

:45:55.:46:02.

journalism. It is never too late! I would not be any good at it. You try

:46:03.:46:06.

to tell the truth. It is something to do with that, this notion of

:46:07.:46:10.

trying to be neutral and balanced about characters. Like Simon Foster

:46:11.:46:22.

or the Trunchbull, you might not be given to sympathising with them, but

:46:23.:46:25.

there is something journalistic about getting under their skin and

:46:26.:46:29.

seeing the world the way they do. You certainly have. We have only

:46:30.:46:37.

seen Doctor Foster because you were here and we will say nothing! It

:46:38.:46:42.

returns tomorrow evening on BBC One at nine o'clock. It is average! It

:46:43.:46:48.

isn't! Now there has got the weather. We have a lot of cloud

:46:49.:46:53.

shrouding the skies today and it will be quite grey through most of

:46:54.:46:58.

the day that some brightness here and there. This scene comes from

:46:59.:47:02.

Norfolk thanks to one of our weather watchers and we have had great

:47:03.:47:05.

coastal pictures this morning. Keep sending them in. Through the course

:47:06.:47:09.

of the day, the weather is dominated by the warm front sitting towards

:47:10.:47:15.

the east. It brought rain on Sunday and will bring more drizzle today. A

:47:16.:47:19.

cold front coming from the north west which brings more persistent

:47:20.:47:22.

rain and the odd rumble of thunder in parts of Northern Ireland and

:47:23.:47:25.

Scotland as we head into the middle part of the day. In England and

:47:26.:47:30.

Wales, dry weather, but some showers developing as the sunshine tries to

:47:31.:47:35.

break holes in the cloud. Sunshine returning to parts of Northern

:47:36.:47:39.

Ireland this afternoon, heading in from the North West, and the North

:47:40.:47:42.

West Scotland it is turning sunnier, brighter and drier. For much of

:47:43.:47:47.

Scotland we have got the cloud and rain lasting into the afternoon.

:47:48.:47:52.

Into England and Wales, cloudy skies and some brightness breaking out in

:47:53.:47:56.

eastern Wales, the East Midlands as well. Around the west coast, you are

:47:57.:48:01.

likely to keep a low cloud. Murky, foggy conditions here, and share was

:48:02.:48:06.

coming out of it as well. Temperatures on the mild side. We

:48:07.:48:10.

could see up to 23 degrees in the sunnier spots that we have this

:48:11.:48:15.

afternoon. Quite warm and humid for this time of year despite the cloud

:48:16.:48:21.

and drizzle. Into the evening, this weather front in the north will pack

:48:22.:48:25.

up, so we could see some rain quite wisely. -- pep up, so we could see

:48:26.:48:39.

some rain quite widely. It will be murky. And eventually clear and

:48:40.:48:42.

fresh weather moves on from the west and the North West. This is a

:48:43.:48:45.

weather front on Tuesday morning sitting across much of the country

:48:46.:48:50.

bringing cloud, rain and breezy conditions as well. Bear with it

:48:51.:48:53.

tomorrow because it will be an improving story. We start with the

:48:54.:48:57.

cloud and the rain but it will fizzle out towards the east. Eastern

:48:58.:49:02.

England could stay quite murky under the cloud with some showers but

:49:03.:49:05.

Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales and the south-west of England will

:49:06.:49:09.

see a return to something brighter tomorrow. 16 to 21, not as warm and

:49:10.:49:15.

Maggie as outside today. That fresher feel to the weather

:49:16.:49:18.

continues into the middle of the week. A return to sunshine, cooler

:49:19.:49:23.

conditions on Wednesday into Thursday, and then things turned

:49:24.:49:26.

more unsettled to enter the week. Not too bad in the middle of the

:49:27.:49:30.

week and then autumnal and unsettled to end it. Thank you. We have

:49:31.:49:36.

probably said this ourselves. You may think life's

:49:37.:49:42.

a beach living by the sea but according to a report for BBC

:49:43.:49:44.

Breakfast, Britain's seaside communities are among the worst

:49:45.:49:47.

parts of the country The economic gap between coastal

:49:48.:49:56.

areas and non-coastal areas has increased.

:49:57.:49:58.

As part of a special series, we're looking at life on the coast.

:49:59.:50:02.

The government is today announcing an additional ?40 million

:50:03.:50:04.

Breakfast's Jayne McCubbin is in Weston-super-Mare for us this

:50:05.:50:07.

morning finding out how far this money will go.

:50:08.:50:10.

What will it be spent on and how is life on the beach today? Good

:50:11.:50:16.

morning. Not just lagging behind in terms of earnings and employment but

:50:17.:50:21.

in terms of education and attainment, and in terms of health

:50:22.:50:26.

even. Specially in terms of this economic gap between what happens

:50:27.:50:30.

and what is created on the coast at what happens in non-coastal

:50:31.:50:33.

communities, it is lagging behind. We are taking the big Breakfast

:50:34.:50:40.

deckchair on a tour of the nation's coastline to find out what is

:50:41.:50:44.

happening. This exclusive research that we have commissioned, released

:50:45.:50:47.

today, shows this negative picture generally across the country. As you

:50:48.:50:52.

say, the government is investing money in coastal communities, a ?40

:50:53.:51:00.

million fund extra released today. Is it enough? We went to see the

:51:01.:51:04.

tale of two towns, one that has benefited and one that has not but

:51:05.:51:11.

hopes to. We want to see what we can learn from these places. Look at

:51:12.:51:12.

this. This used to be one of the best

:51:13.:51:16.

and busiest seaside resorts John tells me the story

:51:17.:51:19.

of Ardrossan. Boats going to the Isle of Man,

:51:20.:51:24.

boats going to Belfast. Industry which once employed

:51:25.:51:27.

thousands has gone. A small marina now sits

:51:28.:51:41.

where the busy port once sprawled. There are super yachts,

:51:42.:51:51.

worth hundreds of thousands, but unemployment rates amongst

:51:52.:51:53.

the very worst in the UK. In the job club, plenty

:51:54.:52:01.

feel left behind. Do you feel that the powers-that-be

:52:02.:52:03.

care about the changes that They don't even know

:52:04.:52:10.

what the problems are. They can't experience the problems,

:52:11.:52:20.

because they don't see it every day. A sense the coast has been

:52:21.:52:23.

left behind is backed Over 80% of people who live in these

:52:24.:52:25.

areas are paid less. The economic gap between

:52:26.:52:30.

coastal and non-coastal The reason probably that other

:52:31.:52:32.

places have done really well is because governments have

:52:33.:52:37.

supported city deals. But here in the west of Scotland,

:52:38.:52:39.

they are still waiting for funding. But in the north-east,

:52:40.:52:51.

the wait is over. So much of Whitley Bay's story

:52:52.:52:54.

was the same as Ardrossan, a resort which teemed

:52:55.:52:58.

with holidaymakers, eager to visit the Spanish City,

:52:59.:53:00.

with fair rides and dancing Hello, Mr Spanish City,

:53:01.:53:02.

this is your history. Yes, I worked my way

:53:03.:53:08.

up to the Waltzer, Yes, I worked my way up

:53:09.:53:12.

to the Waltzer, which was probably the prime job in the Spanish

:53:13.:53:14.

City at the time! But now Andrew has a new top job

:53:15.:53:17.

back in Spanish City. The famous dome, derelict for 17

:53:18.:53:20.

years, is getting ready to reopen, with almost ?10 million

:53:21.:53:24.

of public money. I am very honoured

:53:25.:53:26.

to be able to do it. Able to bring more good times

:53:27.:53:28.

back to Whitley Bay. ?2 million has come

:53:29.:53:37.

from the government's That has invested over ?170 million

:53:38.:53:39.

in the last five years in areas like this, and is extended

:53:40.:53:42.

today with an extra ?40 million. Andrew's Waltzers are gone,

:53:43.:53:47.

but a new restaurant here is a sign of the private money quick

:53:48.:53:50.

to follow public investment. Do you think the government,

:53:51.:53:58.

although it is doing something and you have benefited

:53:59.:54:00.

from it, do you think it is doing Well, I think they

:54:01.:54:03.

could do a lot more. If you look around the country,

:54:04.:54:07.

and see how many people are living in these towns,

:54:08.:54:10.

which have almost been left to die, and they're as important

:54:11.:54:13.

as the people who live in the big The coast of Britain has

:54:14.:54:16.

an incredible story, often a white-knuckle ride

:54:17.:54:19.

for the communities that live there. But proof here success

:54:20.:54:21.

follows investment. No proof yet there is enough

:54:22.:54:22.

investment to go around. Some really serious issues to

:54:23.:54:36.

explore but just before we do, this is looking good. Will Mellor is

:54:37.:54:43.

here, River Cottage fame. You might have seen him on television and read

:54:44.:54:47.

his books. He is cooking up a coastal feast which we will tuck

:54:48.:54:52.

into in a moment. We will come back in a minute. I want to talk about

:54:53.:54:58.

more serious themes. You are from the National Coastal Tourism

:54:59.:55:02.

Academy. You think tourism can fix a lot of these problems, don't you?

:55:03.:55:07.

You think there is much more to exploit. Tell us about your

:55:08.:55:12.

research. What we have out today is new research looking at people who

:55:13.:55:15.

have not stayed on the coast in the last five years and we have tried to

:55:16.:55:19.

find out why, what the barriers are and how to overcome them. Things

:55:20.:55:25.

like unpredictable weather, competition from overseas, too far

:55:26.:55:28.

away. These are all things that are not insurmountable. There are masses

:55:29.:55:31.

of opportunities of things to do when the weather is not so great.

:55:32.:55:36.

Arts, culture, heritage and museums all around the coast. Nothing better

:55:37.:55:41.

than walking along the beach on a cold winter's morning. This is all

:55:42.:55:44.

well and good but it is kind of marketing because the weather is

:55:45.:55:48.

unpredictable. It is often a lot cheaper to go for a short break

:55:49.:55:50.

overseas than it is to stay somewhere like this.

:55:51.:56:10.

It is probably cheaper than you think that there are offering

:56:11.:56:12.

discounts on things available. And it is right here. Nobody is more

:56:13.:56:15.

than 70 miles from the coast in this country so it is ideal for a short

:56:16.:56:17.

break, particularly out of season. Scott, you are from the Social

:56:18.:56:20.

Market Foundation, the people we employed to crunch the data, which

:56:21.:56:22.

shows this negative picture around the coast. Do you agree that tourism

:56:23.:56:26.

can fix a lot of these problems? I certainly think revitalising tourism

:56:27.:56:29.

is part of the solution to the problems in coastal communities. I

:56:30.:56:33.

think it is much more than that as well. We need more high paid work

:56:34.:56:38.

along the coastline, whether that be high and manufacturing or services,

:56:39.:56:42.

employment. One of the things our study shows is that people in

:56:43.:56:50.

coastal communities in work are not earning very much. We need highly

:56:51.:56:52.

skilled work coming to the coastline. What about investment in

:56:53.:56:56.

housing? Could it be an answer to the housing problem, you suggested

:56:57.:57:01.

that earlier? People living in the city, in non-coastal communities,

:57:02.:57:03.

they could come and live here if things were better and

:57:04.:57:07.

infrastructure was better. I think that is right. Connecting the

:57:08.:57:12.

coastal towns to more thriving economies and other employment

:57:13.:57:14.

sectors as part of the solution here. At the moment to many of our

:57:15.:57:21.

coastal towns have problems with infrastructure. It is difficult for

:57:22.:57:24.

people to get to good quality jobs whether that be by road or by rail.

:57:25.:57:31.

Thank you. Mr market. There is something comedic about little feet

:57:32.:57:38.

dangling on this big chair! Come and meet Michelle. You took a leap of

:57:39.:57:42.

faith. You are business owner and you took a leap of faith and you

:57:43.:57:53.

bought the pier. What happened? My brother and I were looking for an

:57:54.:57:56.

investment and this asset had been in the same family for 64 years. It

:57:57.:58:02.

came on the market very quickly. We used to grow up going on the pier

:58:03.:58:06.

and we used to drive past is looking at it and we never thought we would

:58:07.:58:11.

own it but it came on the market. We thought why not have a go? Why not!

:58:12.:58:19.

How his business going? Was it a cold-hearted business decision or

:58:20.:58:23.

was it from the heart? I think it was an emotional purchase, being

:58:24.:58:26.

born and bred here. It was something that ball at our heartstrings. Is it

:58:27.:58:32.

a white knuckle ride? Is it tough? It is interesting. It could be

:58:33.:58:38.

better. We have had a poor season. Visitor numbers are declining. Most

:58:39.:58:42.

people come here for the day rather than staying overnight. But I think

:58:43.:58:46.

there is lots to be done to change that. What? The million-dollar

:58:47.:58:51.

question! We don't need more of what we have got. I think we have got

:58:52.:58:56.

enough of what I provide an the pier. What we need is a cultural

:58:57.:58:59.

attraction, something that punches above its weight, maybe a national

:59:00.:59:09.

poll, like what Banksy did a few years ago, which brought people here

:59:10.:59:13.

in the wind and rain in September. This is a perfect opportunity to

:59:14.:59:19.

bring in Mr Margate, but you are actually Richard, a business owner

:59:20.:59:23.

in Margate. This is what Margate has done, it has created the cultural

:59:24.:59:25.

asset bringing people in. Margate has done that. It's created

:59:26.:59:34.

the Turner Gallery. People are coming from London and from abroad,

:59:35.:59:38.

to be honest, to come and look at the gallery. We are also very lucky

:59:39.:59:44.

that we have the Dreamland Heritage Park now that has been created with

:59:45.:59:50.

that and we are hoping to have it as a music venue and get people here.

:59:51.:59:55.

It all needs investment though doesn't it to get these things in

:59:56.:00:01.

place. Let's go and chat now to Gil. Can we start dishing up, Sir? Of

:00:02.:00:05.

course. This is ready now. It's a locally produced mackerel. Come on,

:00:06.:00:09.

everybody, can we get everybody in to start. Grab a plate. Will, you

:00:10.:00:14.

are a champion of the coast, aren't you. What is it that you love about

:00:15.:00:20.

the coast? I love the food, the people, the vibrancy. I love the

:00:21.:00:26.

beauty and the landscapes that surround it. But most importantly, I

:00:27.:00:32.

just love being there. We all need to get out more! We are going to be

:00:33.:00:35.

on the coast right throughout the week. Grab a plate everybody. From

:00:36.:00:40.

now, in beautiful Weston-super-Mare, back to you. Absolutely wonderful.

:00:41.:00:48.

You were talking about the beauty and how it makes you feel. Tomorrow,

:00:49.:00:55.

Graham Satchell is looking at a project of how to help people with

:00:56.:01:00.

lonelines and depression and anxiety.

:01:01.:01:05.

All this morning we've been asking you for your favourite

:01:06.:01:07.

pictures of the coast and you haven't disappointed us.

:01:08.:01:10.

First up we have this picture from Jenna Morris

:01:11.:01:14.

of her and her daughter 25 years apart both being buried in the sand.

:01:15.:01:18.

She says it wasn't a holiday if someone wasn't buried.

:01:19.:01:23.

Richard Yarnell has sent in this photo of him

:01:24.:01:28.

I love the fact that they're dressed up in their coats to go to the

:01:29.:01:45.

beach. A hand bag as well.

:01:46.:01:48.

Louise has sent in this seaside picture of her children

:01:49.:01:50.

and their cousins enjoying the beach at Bude in Cornwall.

:01:51.:01:58.

That is exactly like my family holiday.

:01:59.:02:02.

Finally Ian has sent this picture of his dog on a beach at Crimdon

:02:03.:02:06.

in County Durham which he says is crying out for investment.

:02:07.:02:14.

Next, this is me way back in the day on the beach. I was just enjoying

:02:15.:02:24.

the view. I was normally in the sea. You have not changed. You look

:02:25.:02:29.

exactly the same. I was 13 I think. Sean has joined us on the sofa. Talk

:02:30.:02:33.

us through this one, Sean? Not as good a technique. I was more

:02:34.:02:38.

horizontal than vertical. The arms are free though. Yes. Slightly

:02:39.:02:44.

panicky. The cold sand on your back, a nice feeling. Never buried, no

:02:45.:02:56.

sand. No sand, preferred the horses. I learnt to ride on the beach

:02:57.:03:00.

because it was the only place I was allowed to go fast on the horse in

:03:01.:03:04.

case I fell off. Did you gallop through the waves? Yes. I asked my

:03:05.:03:10.

mother, can I have a beach picture, mum's travelling visiting various

:03:11.:03:12.

members of the family at the moment so she sent me a school picture. She

:03:13.:03:19.

says we went away this year the picture was taken, so the breakfast

:03:20.:03:24.

team have created this pose that I would normally adopt on a beach!

:03:25.:03:34.

There you go. Thank you both. We are continuing to talk about coastal

:03:35.:03:38.

towns in the week. We'd love to hear your memories and

:03:39.:03:43.

thoughts on the future of Coastal UK. Get in touch with us. Nominate a

:03:44.:03:53.

coastal hero as well. Mine are probably the RNLI and it's probably

:03:54.:03:57.

the lifeguards who're always on the beaches in North Cornwall when I'm

:03:58.:04:02.

swimming. Looking after you. Yes, I see them do rescues all the time.

:04:03.:04:06.

Without them, many people would be in all sorts of trouble. That's who

:04:07.:04:09.

I'll nominate. I'll second that. Let's take a last brief

:04:10.:04:12.

look at the headlines I'm back with more at 1. 30. Bye for

:04:13.:04:14.

now. She's starred in films such

:04:15.:06:01.

as The Matrix, Star Wars and Last Days Of A Princess, but now

:06:02.:06:03.

Genevieve O'Reilly is in a brand The TV series is being billed

:06:04.:06:07.

as a revenge-fuelled thriller. For God's sake don't

:06:08.:06:14.

attempt to chew! I just bought ten jars apple sauce

:06:15.:06:34.

from the last stall. You're the new police

:06:35.:06:53.

chief's wife, aren't you? If I were you, I'd want

:06:54.:07:00.

to be a sell-out success Lovely to see you. Set this up for

:07:01.:07:18.

us. The family have moved haven't they? Yes, from London to kind of a

:07:19.:07:25.

little small town in the Rocky mountains in Canada. The fictional

:07:26.:07:31.

town is Little Big Bear so we filmed out there for Canada in six months.

:07:32.:07:36.

How was that? Was it cold at the end of it? Yes. We started off in the

:07:37.:07:41.

summer, then we filmed chronologically which was lovely but

:07:42.:07:45.

all the way to December. It was very cold! We hear your beautiful accent

:07:46.:07:50.

that you have for us this morning. Originally when you auditioned for

:07:51.:07:58.

it, you had to try out English. I made it sound like you were putting

:07:59.:08:03.

on an accent for us, playing someone on the sofa. When I first got the

:08:04.:08:14.

script, actually Tim Roth's character who plays Jim Worth in it,

:08:15.:08:19.

his character was Irish so I went in and met as an English character and

:08:20.:08:23.

then they said to me, well, you know, we know you're Irish, would

:08:24.:08:27.

you like to do it in an Irish accent and I was like wow two Irish

:08:28.:08:31.

characters that's brave, well done and they went no. So yes. Would it

:08:32.:08:40.

be fair to say it's quite dark? Yes. It's a thriller in essence. It's

:08:41.:08:46.

quite ambitious in its cinematic scope, quite compelling. There is a

:08:47.:08:56.

tragedy with the family in their first episode that is a propellor to

:08:57.:09:01.

the rest of the series. It's really gripping. We have seen the first

:09:02.:09:07.

episode and I'm ready for the next one! Is this true that you shot a

:09:08.:09:17.

costar? Now, just chill out! I didn't actually shoot him. We were

:09:18.:09:21.

on the first day we arrived, maybe I can claim jet lag, but we were

:09:22.:09:25.

taken, myself and a wonderful young actor who is in it, Oliver

:09:26.:09:30.

Cooper-Smith were taken to a gun range because they take their gun

:09:31.:09:35.

laws very seriously and we had to use some guns. We were taken to a

:09:36.:09:39.

fire range. We had all the equipment and safety gear to do some shooting

:09:40.:09:44.

and he was two metres behind me, I don't know how it happened. I shot

:09:45.:09:48.

in that direction towards the target but apparently a little bit of the

:09:49.:09:53.

shrapnel actually hit him. He had to have it removed. I love that he

:09:54.:09:57.

didn't say anything about it at the time? . He was so mute. "You appear

:09:58.:10:04.

to have shot me". He moved back to London and there it was inside his

:10:05.:10:08.

little chest. Did he know it was you? There was only me and him

:10:09.:10:12.

there! No-one else was shooting the gun at the time. It appears to have

:10:13.:10:19.

been me. Not normally what you do with your costars though. Tim Roth

:10:20.:10:23.

is in it. What is he like? He's extraordinary. He's such an amazing

:10:24.:10:27.

actor and I've watched his work for years and it was wonderful to get to

:10:28.:10:33.

work with him. Just an awesome actor be around and to learn from and to

:10:34.:10:39.

be with and we had a wonderful working relationship together, loads

:10:40.:10:46.

of laughs. It was really great. Tin Star coming up. You are on stage as

:10:47.:10:50.

well at the moment. But I want to talk to you about this, this is

:10:51.:10:55.

general Steve in Rogue I, have a look.

:10:56.:11:00.

It appears he is critical to the development

:11:01.:11:02.

Given the gravity of the situation and your history with Saw,

:11:03.:11:06.

we're hoping he will help us locate your father and return him

:11:07.:11:09.

I'm in already. A different voice for you. What is it like being such

:11:10.:11:37.

a part of such a massive much-loved series? Just wonderful. So great to

:11:38.:11:42.

be a part of it. I had been a part of it when I just finished drama

:11:43.:11:47.

school. I was a little part of one of the earlier ones that George

:11:48.:11:51.

Lucas had done but it never made it to screen. When they rang and asked

:11:52.:11:56.

me to play the same character again, it was a pretty awesome phone call

:11:57.:12:07.

to get, I was like "yes please". Do you get Star Wars fans coming up to

:12:08.:12:12.

you? They're so passionate and lovely. They're gorgeous. I really

:12:13.:12:17.

like the Star Wars fans, they're so into the universe, they can tell me

:12:18.:12:19.

things about the character that I have no idea of. You are also

:12:20.:12:24.

starring in a play which is making a lot of good headlines. The Ferryman.

:12:25.:12:29.

Tell us about that? It's on at the moment at the Gielgud in London.

:12:30.:12:42.

Awesome cast, Laura Donnelly, Dervla Molloy and myself. Loads of

:12:43.:12:46.

brilliant actors, a wonderful company to be part of and it's a

:12:47.:12:51.

truly special play. Set in Northern Ireland in 1981. It is. What is

:12:52.:12:55.

going on? It's set at the time of the hunger strike so there is a

:12:56.:13:01.

political hot bed really that the play is kind of grounded in and one

:13:02.:13:08.

of the family's characters has been missing. That's kind of the bed that

:13:09.:13:15.

it's rooted in. It's really a family drama. You are so busy general

:13:16.:13:21.

Steve. Thank you for popping in to see us.

:13:22.:13:21.

Tin Star is on Sky Atlantic, on Thursday evening at 9 o'clock.

:13:22.:13:25.

That's all from us this morning but we'll both be back tomorrow

:13:26.:13:27.

Now it's time for Council House Crackdown with Michelle Ackerley.

:13:28.:13:38.

My parents both grew up on council estates
