Hello, this is Breakfast, | 0:00:07 | 0:00:09 | |
with Naga Munchetty and Charlie
Stayt. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:10 | |
Egypt strikes back after
the deadliest terror attack | 0:00:10 | 0:00:12 | |
in the country's recent history. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:16 | |
At least 235 people were killed
at the mosque in north Sinai. | 0:00:16 | 0:00:19 | |
The military say they've carried out
air strikes on those | 0:00:19 | 0:00:21 | |
behind the killings. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:23 | |
Good morning, it's Saturday

spending on Black Friday, | 0:01:08 | 0:01:10 | |
we hear the thoughts of some
keen bargain hunters. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:18 | |
Just came for Black Friday, ended up
buying a television, headphones, | 0:01:18 | 0:01:23 | |

And Ben has the weekend weather. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:27 | |
Good morning. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:28 | |
Good morning. A cold, frosty and in
places icy start but the reward will | 0:01:28 | 0:01:34 | |
be some crisp autumn sunshine. Some
wintry showers as well. All the | 0:01:34 | 0:01:37 | |
weekend weather details coming up.
See you soon, Ben. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:41 | |
Good morning. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:41 | |
First, our main story. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:42 | |
Egypt's military says it carried out
air strikes on those behind | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
the deadliest Islamist terror attack
in the country's recent history. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:46 | |
the deadliest Islamist terror attack
in the country's recent history. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:48 | |
235 people were killed
and more than 100 injured | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
after gunmen detonated a bomb
and stormed a packed mosque | 0:01:51 | 0:01:53 | |
in North Sinai yesterday. | 0:01:53 | 0:02:06 | |
Egypt's air force says it has
destroyed vehicles used | 0:02:06 | 0:02:08 | |
by the militants, as well as weapons
and ammunition at what it described | 0:02:08 | 0:02:12 | |
as terrorist locations. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:12 | |
Orla Guerin's report contains
some distressing images. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
A rush to save those wounded
when a place of worship became | 0:02:15 | 0:02:18 | |
a place of carnage. | 0:02:18 | 0:02:19 | |
The attackers struck
during Friday prayers. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:21 | |
For Egypt, this was a grim
new first, a massacre in a mosque. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:29 | |
The mosque was popular
with Sufi Muslims, who revere saints | 0:02:29 | 0:02:32 | |
and shrines, and are viewed
as heretics by Islamic extremists. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
Within hours, a televised address
to a nation in shock. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:39 | |
President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi
telling Egyptians their anguish | 0:02:39 | 0:02:41 | |
would not be in vain and there
would be decisive punishment. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:49 | |
The sophisticated assault
on the mosque was the latest attack | 0:02:49 | 0:02:52 | |
by militants based in Sinai. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
The state has been
battling them for years. | 0:02:55 | 0:03:01 | |
The most deadly previous attack
by IS here was the downing of this | 0:03:01 | 0:03:07 | |
Russian aircraft in Sinai in 2015,
with the loss of 224 lives. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:10 | |
In the past year, IS have killed
scores of Christians in three | 0:03:10 | 0:03:17 | |
attacks on churches,
saying followers of the cross | 0:03:17 | 0:03:19 | |
were their favourite prey. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
This time, militants in Sinai have
targeted their fellow Muslims, | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
showing no mercy. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:31 | |
Outside local hospitals,
crowds waited to donate blood. | 0:03:31 | 0:03:34 | |
After a day of horror,
many Egyptians now fearful | 0:03:34 | 0:03:36 | |
about what might come next. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:37 | |
Orla Guerin, BBC News, Cairo. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:45 | |
Police have released CCTV images
of two men they want to speak | 0:03:45 | 0:03:48 | |
to after panic broke out
on the streets of London yesterday | 0:03:48 | 0:03:51 | |
afternoon, injuring 16 people. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:52 | |
Armed officers were called
following reports of gunfire | 0:03:52 | 0:03:55 | |
at Oxford Circus tube station. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:56 | |
But investigators now say
there is no evidence weapons | 0:03:56 | 0:03:58 | |
had been fired. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:02 | |
Our reporter Andy Moore
is in central London for us now. | 0:04:02 | 0:04:07 | |
Andy, what more do we know about
what happened yesterday? Well, it | 0:04:07 | 0:04:12 | |
all happened at 4:37pm yesterday,
about the busiest time on one of the | 0:04:12 | 0:04:19 | |
busiest days of the year. Police got
multiple reports of shots being | 0:04:19 | 0:04:23 | |
fired, both underground in the Chew
and on the street at Oxford Street. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:28 | |
They say they treated it as if it
was a terrorist incident and they | 0:04:28 | 0:04:32 | |
were here within one minute. What
started it all? Eyewitnesses talked | 0:04:32 | 0:04:36 | |
about a fight underground on the
platform, they were ever actuated | 0:04:36 | 0:04:41 | |
from the Tube, the panic underground
spread to the panic on street level. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:45 | |
16 people were injured, seven
treated at the scene discharge, | 0:04:45 | 0:04:49 | |
eighth taken to hospital with minor
injuries, one with more serious leg | 0:04:49 | 0:04:53 | |
injuries. British Transport Police
have released this image of two men, | 0:04:53 | 0:04:59 | |
CCTV images of two men on the
platform, they believe they might | 0:04:59 | 0:05:02 | |
know something about what's being
called an erupted on the platform. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:08 | |
Andy, for the moment, thank you. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:10 | |
This afternoon the DUP
leader Arlene Foster | 0:05:10 | 0:05:12 | |
will address her party's
conference in Belfast, | 0:05:12 | 0:05:14 | |
despite there still being no
government in Northern Ireland. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:16 | |
Aside from domestic issues,
politicians in both the UK | 0:05:16 | 0:05:19 | |
and the Republic of Ireland will be
waiting to hear how she addresses | 0:05:19 | 0:05:22 | |
the Brexit negotiations. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:23 | |
Our Ireland correspondent
Chris Buckler reports. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:30 | |
At Stormont's Parliament buildings
lies empty. There hasn't been a | 0:05:30 | 0:05:35 | |
government here since the start of
the year and that's causing much | 0:05:35 | 0:05:38 | |
concern, along with Brexit. Though
one who lives along the Irish border | 0:05:38 | 0:05:44 | |
is entirely sure what will happen to
the scores of open roads that | 0:05:44 | 0:05:48 | |
connect Northern Ireland and the
Republic. The Democratic Unionist | 0:05:48 | 0:05:51 | |
Party still have political influence
because a Conservative government | 0:05:51 | 0:05:54 | |
need there supporting crucial votes
at Westminster. But to get back into | 0:05:54 | 0:05:59 | |
power at Stormont they need to do a
deal with Sinn Fein and that's not | 0:05:59 | 0:06:03 | |
looking likely. We want a devolved
government back and we're up for | 0:06:03 | 0:06:07 | |
trying to find a way through all of
this but it has to be sensible and | 0:06:07 | 0:06:12 | |
it has to be balanced between
Unionism and nationalism, we can't | 0:06:12 | 0:06:15 | |
have a situation where one community
feels they haven't been respected. | 0:06:15 | 0:06:22 | |
Last year's party conference was an
upbeat affair. Then Arlene Foster | 0:06:22 | 0:06:27 | |
was First Minister and in her speech
she boasted of how times have | 0:06:27 | 0:06:30 | |
changed since Northern Ireland was a
byword for political crisis. When | 0:06:30 | 0:06:35 | |
she gives her conference speech
today, she'll be very aware that | 0:06:35 | 0:06:39 | |
Stormont and instability are once
again closely linked in people's | 0:06:39 | 0:06:43 | |
mines. Chris Buckler, BBC News,
Belfast. | 0:06:43 | 0:06:46 | |
There's no clear link
between the number of prison | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |
suicides and overcrowding,
a new international study suggests. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:51 | |
Packed prison cells have
traditionally been thought | 0:06:51 | 0:06:53 | |
of as a highly significant factor. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:55 | |
However, the research published
in the Lancet psychiatry | 0:06:55 | 0:06:57 | |
journal did conclude that suicides
could be cut by sending fewer people | 0:06:57 | 0:07:01 | |
with mental illnesses to prison. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:02 | |
Our home affairs correspondent
Danny Shaw reports. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:12 | |
Prisons can be harsh, depressing and
brutal places and times. Suicide is | 0:07:12 | 0:07:17 | |
a regular occurrence. In England and
Wales, last year was the worst on | 0:07:17 | 0:07:21 | |
record. 119 inmates took their own
lives, two every week. Staff | 0:07:21 | 0:07:28 | |
shortages and population pressures
may have played some part in the | 0:07:28 | 0:07:32 | |
high suicide rate, but the
conditions prisoners are held in are | 0:07:32 | 0:07:35 | |
a less significant factor than
traditionally thought according to a | 0:07:35 | 0:07:39 | |
new study. The research looked at
cases across the world. It examined | 0:07:39 | 0:07:46 | |
more than 3900 prison suicides in 24
countries. The study found wide | 0:07:46 | 0:07:51 | |
variation in prison suicide rates,
but no link with prison | 0:07:51 | 0:07:56 | |
overcrowding, except in low income
countries were extremely crowded | 0:07:56 | 0:07:59 | |
cells might cause extra stress.
There are no simple explanations for | 0:07:59 | 0:08:05 | |
this prison suicide, so
overcrowding, prisoner numbers, | 0:08:05 | 0:08:09 | |
prison of the sun numbers, how much
you spend on prison, that didn't | 0:08:09 | 0:08:14 | |
seem to be an explanation for these
differences in rates of suicide. The | 0:08:14 | 0:08:18 | |
study found proportionately more
self-inflicted deaths in jails in | 0:08:18 | 0:08:22 | |
countries such as Norway and Sweden.
There custody was generally reserved | 0:08:22 | 0:08:26 | |
for the most violent and dangerous
offenders, including those with | 0:08:26 | 0:08:30 | |
mental health problems. That led
researchers to conclude that the | 0:08:30 | 0:08:33 | |
best way to reduce prison suicides
would be to cut dramatically the | 0:08:33 | 0:08:38 | |
number of inmates with severe mental
illness and improve access to | 0:08:38 | 0:08:43 | |
psychiatric care and social welfare
provision. Danny Shaw, BBC News. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:47 | |
Glasgow Airport was closed
temporarily last night after a tug | 0:08:47 | 0:08:49 | |
vehicle hit a passenger plane
which was preparing for take-off. | 0:08:49 | 0:08:52 | |
Flights were delayed and diverted
after the runway froze | 0:08:52 | 0:08:54 | |
in bitterly cold temperatures. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:56 | |
It's thought the tug may have
skidded on ice as the plane | 0:08:56 | 0:08:59 | |
was pushed back from the stand. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:00 | |
No-one was injured and
the airport has now reopened. | 0:09:00 | 0:09:07 | |
The President of Argentina,
Mauricio Macri, | 0:09:07 | 0:09:09 | |
has ordered an inquiry
into what happened to a navy | 0:09:09 | 0:09:12 | |
submarine that disappeared
over a week ago. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:14 | |
Hopes have faded of finding any
of the 44 people onboard alive, | 0:09:14 | 0:09:17 | |
after the Argentine navy
said an event consistent | 0:09:17 | 0:09:19 | |
with an explosion was detected near
the submarine's last-known location. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:25 | |
Actress Emma Thompson the latest
high profile celebrity to back | 0:09:25 | 0:09:27 | |
the campaign to free
the British Iranian woman | 0:09:27 | 0:09:29 | |
Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe,
who has been in prison in Iran | 0:09:29 | 0:09:32 | |
for nearly 19 months. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:33 | |
She will lead a march of families
from Mrs Ratcliffe's | 0:09:33 | 0:09:36 | |
neighbourhood in north-west London
urging Iran's leader to reunite | 0:09:36 | 0:09:37 | |
Nazanin with her husband
and 3-year-old daughter Gabriella. | 0:09:37 | 0:09:55 | |
Car vandalism in England and Wales
has jumped by 10% in three years. | 0:09:55 | 0:09:59 | |
210,000 vehicles suffered criminal
damage such as smashed | 0:09:59 | 0:10:01 | |
windows and slashed tyres in 2016, | 0:10:01 | 0:10:03 | |
according to data obtained by RAC
Insurance. | 0:10:03 | 0:10:05 | |
It's believed that
the figures could be | 0:10:05 | 0:10:08 | |
higher as many motorists don't | 0:10:08 | 0:10:09 | |
report incidents because they fear | 0:10:09 | 0:10:11 | |
it would push their
insurance premiums up. | 0:10:11 | 0:10:13 | |
Richard Lister reports. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:13 | |
It's an infuriating problem for
motorists and it's on the rise. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:17 | |
Around 60 cars were vandalised on
this Colchester industrial estate in | 0:10:17 | 0:10:21 | |
August costing of pounds to fix. New
police figures show that across the | 0:10:21 | 0:10:27 | |
country more than 210,000 cars
suffered criminal damage last year. | 0:10:27 | 0:10:32 | |
country more than 210,000 cars
suffered criminal damage last year. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:33 | |
That's up 10% since 2013, but the
increase in Hertfordshire and in | 0:10:33 | 0:10:37 | |
West Yorkshire was 25%, while
Greater Manchester saw a 37% rise. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:42 | |
And | 0:10:43 | 0:10:43 | |
And none of us are immune. In 2009
the former cabinet minister Hazel | 0:10:43 | 0:10:49 | |
Blears found her car had been
attacked by vandals. Slashed tyres | 0:10:49 | 0:10:54 | |
and broken windows mean a vehicle
can be off the road for days. Very | 0:10:54 | 0:10:59 | |
frustrating for a motorist because
of the inconvenience, the cost and | 0:10:59 | 0:11:02 | |
the time it takes to actually get an
effective repair but we also feel | 0:11:02 | 0:11:06 | |
it's probably just the tip of the
iceberg because many people won't | 0:11:06 | 0:11:10 | |
actually report a small incident of
vandalism and certainly won't make | 0:11:10 | 0:11:15 | |
an insurance claim.
In this area near Luton Airport, | 0:11:15 | 0:11:19 | |
holidaymakers who parked in
residential streets to avoid airport | 0:11:19 | 0:11:22 | |
car parks had an unwelcome surprise
when they returned. Paying for | 0:11:22 | 0:11:27 | |
secure parking would have been
cheaper. And if that's not | 0:11:27 | 0:11:31 | |
available, the advice is to find
well lit unobtrusive spaces to avoid | 0:11:31 | 0:11:36 | |
the vandals. Richard Lister, BBC
News. | 0:11:36 | 0:11:38 | |
Sightseers on a London tour bus have
shared their journey | 0:11:38 | 0:11:41 | |
with an unexpected stowaway. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:42 | |
This fox is believed to have
boarded the double-decker | 0:11:42 | 0:11:45 | |
in a depot before riding it
all the way to the centre | 0:11:45 | 0:11:48 | |
of the capital, taking
in all the sights on the way. | 0:11:48 | 0:11:51 | |
It sat on the top deck, unnoticed,
until the bus reached Park Lane, | 0:11:51 | 0:11:54 | |
where it was safely removed,
and taken back to its den. | 0:11:54 | 0:12:07 | |
The thing is, if it wanted to be
warm, why go on the top deck? | 0:12:07 | 0:12:12 | |
Because you get a better view? Of
course! | 0:12:12 | 0:12:17 | |
Black Friday yesterday. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:21 | |
Hundreds of thousands of us snapped
up a bargain yesterday | 0:12:21 | 0:12:25 | |
with estimates that shoppers spent
more than £2.5 billion in one | 0:12:25 | 0:12:28 | |
day alone, but was it a record
breaking year for retailers? | 0:12:28 | 0:12:31 | |
We've been out in Manchester to see
what shoppers had to say. | 0:12:31 | 0:12:33 | |
Done a bit of Christmas shopping?
Hadn't planned on Christmas | 0:12:47 | 0:12:51 | |
shopping. Half my Christmas presents
sorted. I came with a budget and I'm | 0:12:51 | 0:12:56 | |
going home with more than what I
thought I was going home with. Came | 0:12:56 | 0:13:01 | |
for Black Friday, ended up buying a
television, headphones, clothes, | 0:13:01 | 0:13:06 | |
jewellery, all sorts of things. We
got Friday off with our friends and | 0:13:06 | 0:13:09 | |
so it happened to fall on Black
Friday, which is handy, so we got | 0:13:09 | 0:13:13 | |
lots of bargains. Just girls out on
a Friday! We got 25% off, 10% off, | 0:13:13 | 0:13:20 | |
any discount is better than nothing
so we've done well I think. We've | 0:13:20 | 0:13:24 | |
not overspent I think, what we've
done is we knew what we wanted to | 0:13:24 | 0:13:28 | |
get and we've come out and we've got
that really. So quite a positive | 0:13:28 | 0:13:32 | |
experience with it. Milli feels like
she's overspent. I've overspent. | 0:13:32 | 0:13:38 | |
Those are the thoughts of some of
those who were spending money | 0:13:38 | 0:13:42 | |
yesterday and we will analyse some
of the figures later on. You didn't | 0:13:42 | 0:13:46 | |
go out shopping yesterday? Oddly
enough! | 0:13:46 | 0:13:48 | |
Let's have a look at
this morning's papers. | 0:13:48 | 0:13:52 | |
Let's get down to business says the
front page of the Daily Mail. It's | 0:13:52 | 0:13:56 | |
talking about Theresa May, who was
in Brussels yesterday, saying the EU | 0:13:56 | 0:14:00 | |
has finally indicated its ready to
start talks on a post-Brexit trade | 0:14:00 | 0:14:04 | |
deal last night.
On the front page of the Daily | 0:14:04 | 0:14:08 | |
Mirror, entirely different theme,
they have an interview with Coleen | 0:14:08 | 0:14:12 | |
Rooney, who made comments in
connection with her husband, wine, | 0:14:12 | 0:14:16 | |
talking about their situation.
The Guardian is talking about scores | 0:14:16 | 0:14:21 | |
of complaints against a surgeon who
is a pelvic specialist -- Wayne. | 0:14:21 | 0:14:26 | |
He's been accused of leaving
patients with traumatic compensation | 0:14:26 | 0:14:29 | |
so a group of 100 women are
considering legal action. This | 0:14:29 | 0:14:35 | |

Florence in Italy, following legal | 0:14:35 | 0:14:39 | |
action images of this can only now
be used with official permission so | 0:14:39 | 0:14:45 | |
says the Guardian. Front page of the
Daily Telegraph uses some of the | 0:14:45 | 0:14:50 | |
images of events yesterday at Oxford
Circus, we now know this was just an | 0:14:50 | 0:14:54 | |
altercation between two men, police
said. They've released CCTV images | 0:14:54 | 0:14:59 | |
of the two people that might have
been responsible for some kind of | 0:14:59 | 0:15:03 | |
fight in the Tube station initially.
And this story, a portion of women | 0:15:03 | 0:15:07 | |

front page of the Times, but its
lead story a revolt over defence | 0:15:13 | 0:15:17 | |
cuts, a Defence Minister has
threatened to resign if the military | 0:15:17 | 0:15:22 | |
cuts the army to below 70,000
soldiers. The minister quoted is | 0:15:22 | 0:15:28 | |
Tobias Ellwood. | 0:15:28 | 0:15:30 | |
Here's Ben with a look
at this morning's weather. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:36 | |
Here's Ben with a look
at this morning's weather. | 0:15:36 | 0:15:37 | |
Good morning. It's probably time to
ring out the thick coat and maybe | 0:15:37 | 0:15:45 | |
even the ice scrape this morning. A
cold and frosty start and an icy | 0:15:45 | 0:15:49 | |
start in some places where there
have been showers through the night. | 0:15:49 | 0:15:52 | |
Further showers through the day and
crisp autumn sunshine. Here's how it | 0:15:52 | 0:15:58 | |
looks early. Showers in the
north-western areas and western | 0:15:58 | 0:16:01 | |
parts of Scotland. Showers are
wintry even the lower levels. Don't | 0:16:01 | 0:16:05 | |
be surprised to see snow. In western
Scotland, Northern Ireland, | 0:16:05 | 0:16:11 | |
north-west England and into Wales
where we have the showers there's | 0:16:11 | 0:16:14 | |
the risk of icy stretches the roads.
There could also be ice in parts of | 0:16:14 | 0:16:19 | |
the south-east. A couple of showers
through the morning. A scattering of | 0:16:19 | 0:16:24 | |
showers in the south-west England
and even here over high ground some | 0:16:24 | 0:16:27 | |
of the showers are wintry. Through
the day areas exposed to the wind, | 0:16:27 | 0:16:31 | |
quite a strong wind, will continue
to have heavy showers, perhaps with | 0:16:31 | 0:16:37 | |
hail and thunder. Most of the wintry
weather confined to high ground as | 0:16:37 | 0:16:41 | |
the day goes on. Or persistent sleet
and snow in the northern England. | 0:16:41 | 0:16:45 | |
This is the idea of what it will
feel like with the strength of the | 0:16:45 | 0:16:50 | |
wind. Some sports feeling subzero
through the afternoon, the | 0:16:50 | 0:16:53 | |
particularly strong winds in the far
north of Scotland. It this evening | 0:16:53 | 0:16:57 | |
and tonight showers continued to
feed into northern and western | 0:16:57 | 0:17:00 | |
areas. Again wintry. Mostly over
high ground. Temperatures in towns | 0:17:00 | 0:17:06 | |
and cities about one or two degrees,
but could easily get lower than that | 0:17:06 | 0:17:10 | |
in the countryside. We start Sunday
with this high pressure. Not a bad | 0:17:10 | 0:17:15 | |
looking day. The frontal system
approaching from the west. That will | 0:17:15 | 0:17:20 | |
change things later. On Sunday and
other day of sunshine and showers. | 0:17:20 | 0:17:24 | |
Vidic Ely eastern area staying dry.
Our west we have quite a few showers | 0:17:24 | 0:17:29 | |
and this band of persistent rain
moves into Northern Ireland by the | 0:17:29 | 0:17:33 | |
end of the day. Temperatures may be
nudging up a little bit. Eight | 0:17:33 | 0:17:36 | |
degrees in Cardiff and Plymouth. For
the test match down under, a | 0:17:36 | 0:17:41 | |
different feel. Temperatures around
the mid- 20s. Even here there will | 0:17:41 | 0:17:47 | |
be a couple of showers at times, as
well as spells of sunshine. Into the | 0:17:47 | 0:17:52 | |
start of next week and Monday is
going to bring cloud and rain and | 0:17:52 | 0:17:57 | |
most of the rain will move through
during the early hours of Monday. | 0:17:57 | 0:18:01 | |
There could be held snow for a time.
But as you can see as the rain moves | 0:18:01 | 0:18:06 | |
through you will temporarily see
something milder in places. However, | 0:18:06 | 0:18:10 | |
into Tuesday the cold air returns
and we get to a northerly wind. | 0:18:10 | 0:18:14 | |
Temperatures 6-7 degrees at rest,
with wintry showers. The story for | 0:18:14 | 0:18:20 | |
the week ahead is for cold weather
through the country. There will be | 0:18:20 | 0:18:25 | |
some crisp sunshine and showers and
in those showers there could be some | 0:18:25 | 0:18:28 | |
sleet and snow. That's all from me
for now. | 0:18:28 | 0:18:31 | |
sleet and snow. That's all from me
for now. Back to you. | 0:18:31 | 0:18:32 | |
Thanks. | 0:18:32 | 0:18:37 | |
They were the trenches that changed
the face of modern warfare forever. | 0:18:37 | 0:18:40 | |
Now 100 years since the first tanks
were deployed, members of the Royal | 0:18:40 | 0:18:46 | |
Regiment have returned to the French
town to mark the loss of life in the | 0:18:46 | 0:18:51 | |
largest ever attack mounted. Robert
Hall sent us this report. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:57 | |
On the terrorist all of the
memorial, they look back to a week | 0:18:57 | 0:19:04 | |
which cemented the bonds of the new
military family. These men will tell | 0:19:04 | 0:19:11 | |
you stories of the friendship and
teamwork particular to this | 0:19:11 | 0:19:14 | |
Regiment, as true now as it was a
century ago. In November 1917 the | 0:19:14 | 0:19:21 | |
early tank men clambered into over
400 lumbering machines for the | 0:19:21 | 0:19:25 | |
largest tank attack ever mounted.
Inside the metal holes crews were | 0:19:25 | 0:19:30 | |
overcome by heat and exhaust fumes.
Any tanks broke down. But courage | 0:19:30 | 0:19:35 | |
and determination took most of their
objectives. Major Arthur Griffiths | 0:19:35 | 0:19:39 | |
was one of those honoured for his
bravery. Having seen some of the | 0:19:39 | 0:19:43 | |
pressures of conflict, it is
particularly poignant. You | 0:19:43 | 0:19:48 | |
understand the sorts of pressures
there were at the time. I think the | 0:19:48 | 0:19:52 | |
standout point for me was in the
tank you would make sure the bullet | 0:19:52 | 0:20:01 | |
was hitting the front of the tank
and then you would know you were | 0:20:01 | 0:20:04 | |
going in the right direction.
Surviving tanks are now too fragile | 0:20:04 | 0:20:07 | |
to run. This is a copy made for the
film War Horse. One battle scar | 0:20:07 | 0:20:13 | |
their trend has been adopted by the
French village where it fought. Tank | 0:20:13 | 0:20:21 | |
backrower what -- is tank was lost.
In 1958 they began the task of | 0:20:21 | 0:20:28 | |
preserving her. Today, Deborah is
the centrepiece of a new museum | 0:20:28 | 0:20:35 | |
commemorating her part in the battle
and the five crewmen she lost. I | 0:20:35 | 0:20:40 | |
always moved when I'm here. It's
part of myself and it is simply a | 0:20:40 | 0:20:47 | |
love story. A love story which
started 25 years ago when first I | 0:20:47 | 0:20:52 | |
met an old lady who let me know that
she knew a place where the tank was | 0:20:52 | 0:20:57 | |
buried. For me it was exactly as if
she had given me a map to find a | 0:20:57 | 0:21:02 | |
treasure. When the five men who now
live together at this military | 0:21:02 | 0:21:09 | |
Cemetery climbed into the battle,
they knew they were part of | 0:21:09 | 0:21:13 | |
something extraordinary. But the
bravery of the crews and the power | 0:21:13 | 0:21:16 | |
of the tanks came to naught. The
allies were once again driven back. | 0:21:16 | 0:21:22 | |
However, Cambrai marked the start of
a change in the way wars were | 0:21:22 | 0:21:25 | |
fought. The tank had proved its
worth. A machine that is still | 0:21:25 | 0:21:31 | |
evolving, still a terrifying
presence. Its birth came at a high | 0:21:31 | 0:21:39 | |
cost. These ceremonies mark the
passing of the tank men who still | 0:21:39 | 0:21:45 | |
lie under the rolling farmland they
crossed. | 0:21:45 | 0:21:54 | |
Now it's time for The Travel Show. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:56 | |
This week the team are in Dubai,
finding out how it's become one | 0:21:56 | 0:22:00 | |
of the world's fastest-growing
tourist destinations. | 0:22:00 | 0:22:02 | |
We'll see you for
the headlines at 6:30. | 0:22:02 | 0:22:04 | |
20 years ago, Dubai set out
to become one of the most talked | 0:22:06 | 0:22:10 | |
about towns in the world. | 0:22:10 | 0:22:15 | |
Since then this young city state,
one of seven emirates in the UAE, | 0:22:15 | 0:22:18 | |
has largely succeeded. | 0:22:18 | 0:22:25 | |
It's become one of the fastest
growing tourist destinations | 0:22:25 | 0:22:27 | |
on the planet. | 0:22:27 | 0:22:31 | |
Synonymous with spectacular
skyscrapers, gigantic shopping malls | 0:22:31 | 0:22:35 | |
and high-end hospitality and also
the occasional stories of tourists | 0:22:35 | 0:22:38 | |
who fall foul of local customs. | 0:22:38 | 0:22:41 | |
But scratch deeper and there's
much more to this place. | 0:22:44 | 0:22:48 | |
No longer the brash new kid
on the block, Dubai is now | 0:22:48 | 0:22:51 | |
an established hub and one of
the world's few truly global cities. | 0:22:51 | 0:22:57 | |
Oh, yes. | 0:22:57 | 0:22:58 | |
And although the impulse
to impress is still here, | 0:22:58 | 0:23:01 | |
there's now a complex identity
taking shape and I'm here to see how | 0:23:01 | 0:23:04 | |
that's changing the look and feel
of Dubai, its people and its future. | 0:23:04 | 0:23:09 | |
This is The Creek, the real heart
of old Dubai, and gorgeous | 0:23:32 | 0:23:35 | |
in this light. | 0:23:35 | 0:23:37 | |
Now, this used to be a real trading
hub for the city and the kinds | 0:23:37 | 0:23:41 | |
of boats you can see behind me bring
in spices and other goods | 0:23:41 | 0:23:45 | |
from countries like India,
Iran and much further afield. | 0:23:45 | 0:23:53 | |
This is my personal favourite part
of Dubai, the old town. | 0:23:57 | 0:24:00 | |
You get a real sense of the past. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:07 | |
As it's a contrast to
the skyscrapers and shopping malls | 0:24:07 | 0:24:10 | |
downtown. | 0:24:10 | 0:24:10 | |
What is this? | 0:24:10 | 0:24:11 | |
This is cinnamon. | 0:24:11 | 0:24:14 | |
Cinnamon, yeah, I recognised that. | 0:24:14 | 0:24:15 | |
Very good. | 0:24:15 | 0:24:16 | |
This one is turmeric. | 0:24:16 | 0:24:18 | |
Turmeric, yeah, very
good for cooking. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:22 | |
This one is for cooking, and this
is for the face massage. | 0:24:22 | 0:24:25 | |
For the face massage?
OK. | 0:24:25 | 0:24:27 | |
And what is this? | 0:24:27 | 0:24:28 | |
This is a long piece
of wood, what is it? | 0:24:28 | 0:24:31 | |
This is more cinnamon! | 0:24:31 | 0:24:32 | |
Very good! | 0:24:32 | 0:24:35 | |
You're testing me, aren't you! | 0:24:35 | 0:24:36 | |
Tell me the difference,
that is bigger? | 0:24:36 | 0:24:38 | |
This is bigger and this is smaller. | 0:24:38 | 0:24:40 | |
Is that it?! | 0:24:40 | 0:24:41 | |
LAUGHS | 0:24:41 | 0:24:42 | |
Frankly, if I hadn't stopped him
I think he would've taken me | 0:24:42 | 0:24:45 | |
through every single
spice in the shop. | 0:24:45 | 0:24:47 | |
This one is for
smoking and for soup. | 0:24:47 | 0:24:54 | |
Of course if you're into bling
you don't have to go too far to find | 0:24:54 | 0:24:58 | |
that here too. | 0:24:58 | 0:24:59 | |
But to find authentic
arts and crafts 21st | 0:24:59 | 0:25:01 | |
century style, then you'll need
to venture even furtyher | 0:25:01 | 0:25:05 | |
from the glitz and skyscrapers,
and head to be gritty Al Quoz | 0:25:05 | 0:25:08 | |
industrial area, where a flourishing
warehouse-based community arts scene | 0:25:08 | 0:25:11 | |
has sprung up. | 0:25:11 | 0:25:16 | |
This is "calligraffiti",
a mixture of traditional Arabic | 0:25:18 | 0:25:24 | |
calligraphy and graffiti,
and it's the signature style | 0:25:24 | 0:25:29 | |
of a French-born artist of Tunisian
origin, who goes by the name of eL | 0:25:29 | 0:25:33 | |
Seed. | 0:25:33 | 0:25:33 | |
He'd taken his unique approach
to street art around the world | 0:25:33 | 0:25:36 | |
with astonishing results,
including this monumental project | 0:25:36 | 0:25:38 | |
he created in a working-class
district of Cairo. | 0:25:38 | 0:25:47 | |
So what's he doing in Dubai? | 0:25:47 | 0:25:50 | |
For me, Dubai is like, a new city. | 0:25:50 | 0:25:57 | |
I look at it, I try to
have a different view to it. | 0:25:57 | 0:26:01 | |
A lot of people coming
from outside say, "Oh, | 0:26:01 | 0:26:03 | |
it is fake, you are an artist, how
could you be here? | 0:26:03 | 0:26:07 | |
For me, there is this kind
of growing art scene, | 0:26:07 | 0:26:10 | |
there is a growing art community. | 0:26:10 | 0:26:13 | |
As an artist it's always good to see
that I am part of this, | 0:26:13 | 0:26:17 | |
I am part of making
a change and making this movement. | 0:26:17 | 0:26:20 | |
If I can question you on that,
it is also a place that is glamorous | 0:26:20 | 0:26:25 | |
and wealthy, you have a big expat
population, you have some very rich | 0:26:25 | 0:26:28 | |
people here. | 0:26:28 | 0:26:28 | |
Is that inspiring for you? | 0:26:28 | 0:26:30 | |
We are here in the middle
of the industrial zone that has been | 0:26:30 | 0:26:34 | |
turned into this cultural
and art community. | 0:26:34 | 0:26:41 | |
Like, when you cross the road
you have still factories. | 0:26:41 | 0:26:44 | |
This is the Dubai
that I want to see. | 0:26:44 | 0:26:47 | |
I am not interested in the shiny
things, that's not for me. | 0:26:47 | 0:26:52 | |
But some people that they want it. | 0:26:52 | 0:26:55 | |
I think at some point
there is a switch, | 0:26:55 | 0:26:57 | |
Dubai will show people,
this is what we do. | 0:26:57 | 0:27:01 | |
Some people love Paris,
I love Paris, some people hate | 0:27:06 | 0:27:09 | |
Paris. | 0:27:09 | 0:27:11 | |
Some people love New York,
some others hate New York. | 0:27:11 | 0:27:14 | |
You cannot compare. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:16 | |
For me it's too naive. | 0:27:16 | 0:27:18 | |
But what I look? | 0:27:18 | 0:27:22 | |
Yes, what has been done here in less
than 30 years is crazy. | 0:27:22 | 0:27:26 | |
I think people should
just salute that. | 0:27:26 | 0:27:29 | |
While the artists there
are busy feeding the soul, | 0:27:36 | 0:27:38 | |
many locals and expats
here in Dubai are also now keen | 0:27:38 | 0:27:41 | |
to exercise their bodies. | 0:27:41 | 0:27:42 | |
Some of them in the most
quintessential Emirati | 0:27:42 | 0:27:44 | |
locations. | 0:27:44 | 0:27:49 | |
Now, you wouldn't normally
associate Dubai with cycling. | 0:27:49 | 0:27:55 | |
In fact, riding through the Dubai
rush hour is definitely a no-no. | 0:27:55 | 0:27:58 | |
But the sport is becoming
increasingly popular here, | 0:27:58 | 0:28:01 | |
thanks to facilities
like this, a cycling track. | 0:28:01 | 0:28:06 | |
It's long, smooth, purpose built
and flat as a pancake. | 0:28:06 | 0:28:10 | |
In a country not famed
for its exercise culture, | 0:28:10 | 0:28:15 | |
these days many locals are now
getting into a whole | 0:28:15 | 0:28:18 | |
range of sports. | 0:28:18 | 0:28:21 | |
And in case you're wondering,
I'm going to leave | 0:28:21 | 0:28:23 | |
this one to the experts. | 0:28:23 | 0:28:28 | |
Hi, I am a wake boarder in Dubai. | 0:28:28 | 0:28:44 | |
I'm all about board sports,
so snowboarding, wakeboarding, | 0:28:44 | 0:28:46 | |
kite surfing, all
accessible in Dubai. | 0:28:46 | 0:28:47 | |
Living in the desert,
the closest mountain is in Lebanon | 0:28:47 | 0:28:54 | |
or Georgia or something. | 0:28:54 | 0:28:57 | |
You have the best instructors,
you learn how to snowboard | 0:28:57 | 0:28:59 | |
here and when you go into any
mountain from the Alps | 0:28:59 | 0:29:02 | |
to Colorado, it's simple. | 0:29:02 | 0:29:11 | |
The younger generation is actually
crazy here in Dubai. | 0:29:11 | 0:29:14 | |
They're crazy when it
comes to extreme sports. | 0:29:14 | 0:29:16 | |
They're trying to compete
more internationally. | 0:29:16 | 0:29:23 | |
It's actually really nice to see. | 0:29:23 | 0:29:28 | |
The vibe of the city
is all about work hard, play hard. | 0:29:28 | 0:29:31 | |
You put in so many hours at work,
so the little time you have left, | 0:29:31 | 0:29:35 | |
you don't want to waste it
just lolling around. | 0:29:35 | 0:29:44 | |
Keen to get another fix
of the great outdoors, | 0:29:44 | 0:29:47 | |
I'm now heading out to the desert
early in the morning to experience | 0:29:47 | 0:29:54 | |
something new, that I am told
you can only see here in Dubai. | 0:29:54 | 0:30:11 | |
It's a new twist on traditional
Arabian falconry. | 0:30:11 | 0:30:15 | |
I hear it's going to be
truly breathtaking. | 0:30:15 | 0:30:21 | |
2,500 years ago, people relied
on the falcon the way | 0:30:21 | 0:30:24 | |
you and I rely on the supermarket. | 0:30:24 | 0:30:26 | |
Falcons put food on the table. | 0:30:26 | 0:30:32 | |
Traditionally the way it worked,
birds from Europe and Asia migrated | 0:30:32 | 0:30:35 | |
from the Middle East to Africa. | 0:30:35 | 0:30:43 | |
On that migration they would trap
them from the wild and then use them | 0:30:43 | 0:30:47 | |
in the winter months. | 0:30:47 | 0:30:48 | |
At the end of winter
they would untie them | 0:30:48 | 0:30:51 | |
and release them into the wild. | 0:30:51 | 0:30:52 | |
It is a beautiful system
of borrowing a bird | 0:30:52 | 0:30:55 | |
from the wild and then
giving them back. | 0:30:55 | 0:30:57 | |
We are about to release
Oberon from the basket | 0:30:57 | 0:30:59 | |
and I will untie him. | 0:30:59 | 0:31:04 | |
You'll see he's
wearing a transmitter | 0:31:04 | 0:31:09 | |
on his tail, that is so I can
find him if he flies away, | 0:31:09 | 0:31:13 | |
and I will pop his
hood off in a second, | 0:31:13 | 0:31:16 | |
this device is called the hood,
and this is keeping him | 0:31:16 | 0:31:19 | |
calm and relaxed. | 0:31:19 | 0:31:20 | |
That comes off, OK. | 0:31:20 | 0:31:21 | |
Ready, guys? | 0:31:21 | 0:31:22 | |
Five, four, three, two, one... | 0:31:22 | 0:31:27 | |
Wow! | 0:31:39 | 0:31:40 | |
Amazing. | 0:31:40 | 0:31:44 | |
Hey! | 0:31:44 | 0:31:44 | |
Good boy. | 0:31:44 | 0:31:47 | |
Do you want to go? | 0:31:47 | 0:31:49 | |
I would love to, let's try. | 0:31:49 | 0:31:52 | |
Oh, yes. | 0:31:57 | 0:32:05 | |
Peter has helped to hand rear these
birds from birth and the bond | 0:32:05 | 0:32:09 | |
of trust between them is vital. | 0:32:09 | 0:32:12 | |
It's clear that to him the falcon's
welfare is paramount, | 0:32:12 | 0:32:15 | |
and months go into training
the birds to get them used | 0:32:15 | 0:32:21 | |
to the sights and sounds
of the baloon and its passengers. | 0:32:21 | 0:32:25 | |
It's practised. | 0:32:25 | 0:32:26 | |
These birds are in good shape. | 0:32:26 | 0:32:28 | |
So the bird is not suffering. | 0:32:28 | 0:32:30 | |
Absolutely not. | 0:32:30 | 0:32:30 | |
What more could you ask for? | 0:32:30 | 0:32:34 | |
A unique experience
and a beautiful animal. | 0:32:34 | 0:32:41 | |
Hello, this is Breakfast | 0:32:58 | 0:33:00 | |
with Charlie Stayt and Naga
Munchetty. | 0:33:00 | 0:33:01 | |
Good morning, here's
a summary of this morning's | 0:33:01 | 0:33:03 | |
main stories from BBC News: | 0:33:03 | 0:33:10 | |
Egypt's military says it carried out
air strikes on those behind | 0:33:10 | 0:33:12 | |
the deadliest Islamist terror attack
in the country's recent history. | 0:33:12 | 0:33:15 | |
235 people were killed
and more than 100 injured | 0:33:15 | 0:33:18 | |
after gunmen detonated a bomb
and stormed a packed mosque | 0:33:18 | 0:33:20 | |
in North Sinai yesterday. | 0:33:20 | 0:33:21 | |
Egypt's air force says it has
destroyed vehicles used | 0:33:21 | 0:33:24 | |
by the militants, as well as weapons
and ammunition at what it described | 0:33:24 | 0:33:27 | |
as terrorist locations. | 0:33:27 | 0:33:33 | |
Orla Guerin's report contains
some distressing images. | 0:33:33 | 0:33:36 | |
A rush to save those wounded
when a place of worship became | 0:33:36 | 0:33:40 | |
a place of carnage. | 0:33:40 | 0:33:41 | |
The attackers struck
during Friday prayers. | 0:33:41 | 0:33:46 | |
For Egypt, this was a grim
new first, a massacre in a mosque. | 0:33:46 | 0:33:50 | |
The mosque was popular
with Sufi Muslims, who revere saints | 0:33:50 | 0:33:54 | |
and shrines, and are viewed
as heretics by Islamic extremists. | 0:33:54 | 0:33:58 | |
Within hours, a televised address
to a nation in shock. | 0:33:58 | 0:34:01 | |
President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi
telling Egyptians their anguish | 0:34:01 | 0:34:03 | |
would not be in vain and there
would be decisive punishment. | 0:34:03 | 0:34:06 | |
The sophisticated assault
on the mosque was the latest attack | 0:34:06 | 0:34:08 | |
by militants based in Sinai. | 0:34:08 | 0:34:20 | |
The state has been
battling them for years. | 0:34:20 | 0:34:26 | |
The most deadly previous attack
by IS here was the downing of this | 0:34:26 | 0:34:29 | |
Russian aircraft in Sinai in 2015,
with the loss of 224 lives. | 0:34:29 | 0:34:32 | |
In the past year, IS have killed
scores of Christians in three | 0:34:32 | 0:34:36 | |
attacks on churches,
saying followers of the cross | 0:34:36 | 0:34:38 | |
were their favourite prey. | 0:34:38 | 0:34:50 | |
This time, militants in Sinai have
targeted their fellow Muslims, | 0:34:50 | 0:34:52 | |
showing no mercy. | 0:34:52 | 0:34:53 | |
Outside local hospitals,
crowds waited to donate blood. | 0:34:53 | 0:34:55 | |
After a day of horror,
many Egyptians now fearful | 0:34:55 | 0:34:58 | |
about what might come next. | 0:34:58 | 0:34:59 | |
Orla Guerin, BBC News, Cairo. | 0:34:59 | 0:35:10 | |
Police have released CCTV images
of two men they want to speak | 0:35:10 | 0:35:13 | |
to after panic broke out
on the streets of London yesterday | 0:35:13 | 0:35:16 | |
afternoon, injuring 16 people. | 0:35:16 | 0:35:17 | |
Armed officers were called
following reports of gunfire | 0:35:17 | 0:35:19 | |
at Oxford Circus Tube station. | 0:35:19 | 0:35:21 | |
But investigators now say
there is no evidence weapons | 0:35:21 | 0:35:23 | |
had been fired. | 0:35:23 | 0:35:24 | |
They are appealing to speak to these
two men in connection | 0:35:24 | 0:35:27 | |
with the incident. | 0:35:27 | 0:35:32 | |
The DUP leader Arlene Foster
will address her party's annual | 0:35:32 | 0:35:34 | |
The DUP leader Arlene Foster
will address her party's annual | 0:35:34 | 0:35:37 | |
The DUP leader Arlene Foster
will address her party's annual | 0:35:37 | 0:35:38 | |
conference in Belfast later today
and is expected to focus | 0:35:38 | 0:35:41 | |
on their position of
influence in Westminster. | 0:35:41 | 0:35:43 | |
Mrs Foster will also
reaffirm their commitment to restore | 0:35:43 | 0:35:46 | |
a power-sharing agreement
at Stormont, and will be watched | 0:35:46 | 0:35:48 | |
closely for thoughts
on Brexit and the question | 0:35:48 | 0:35:50 | |
of the Irish border. | 0:35:50 | 0:35:51 | |
The Democratic Unionists
unexpectedly gained a prominent seat | 0:35:51 | 0:35:53 | |
at the negotiation table
after agreeing to prop up | 0:35:53 | 0:35:56 | |
Theresa May's minority government. | 0:35:56 | 0:36:04 | |
There's no clear link
between the number of prison | 0:36:04 | 0:36:07 | |
suicides and overcrowding,
a new international study suggests. | 0:36:07 | 0:36:09 | |
Packed prison cells have
traditionally been thought | 0:36:09 | 0:36:11 | |
of as a highly significant factor. | 0:36:11 | 0:36:13 | |
However, the research published
in the Lancet psychiatry | 0:36:13 | 0:36:15 | |
journal did conclude that suicides
could be cut by sending fewer people | 0:36:15 | 0:36:18 | |
with mental illnesses to prison. | 0:36:18 | 0:36:19 | |
Glasgow Airport was closed
temporarily last night after a tug | 0:36:25 | 0:36:28 | |
vehicle hit a passenger plane
which was preparing for take-off. | 0:36:28 | 0:36:30 | |
Flights were delayed and diverted
after the runway froze | 0:36:30 | 0:36:33 | |
in bitterly cold temperatures. | 0:36:33 | 0:36:34 | |
It's thought the tug may have
skidded on ice as the plane | 0:36:34 | 0:36:37 | |
was pushed back from the stand. | 0:36:37 | 0:36:39 | |
No-one was injured and
the airport has now reopened. | 0:36:39 | 0:36:50 | |
Car vandalism in England and Wales
has jumped by 10% in three years. | 0:36:50 | 0:36:54 | |
210,000 vehicles suffered criminal
damage such as smashed | 0:36:54 | 0:36:56 | |
windows and slashed tyres in 2016, | 0:36:56 | 0:36:58 | |
according to data obtained by RAC
Insurance. | 0:36:58 | 0:37:00 | |
It's believed that
the figures could be | 0:37:00 | 0:37:02 | |
even
higher as many motorists don't | 0:37:02 | 0:37:03 | |
report incidents because they fear | 0:37:03 | 0:37:05 | |
it would push their
insurance premiums up. | 0:37:05 | 0:37:17 | |
He's been called the real-life
Iron Man and has blasted | 0:37:17 | 0:37:19 | |
into the record books
with his self-built jet | 0:37:19 | 0:37:22 | |
engine power suit. | 0:37:22 | 0:37:22 | |
Richard Browning set a Guinness
world record last month | 0:37:22 | 0:37:25 | |
for flying in the suit
and was showing it off | 0:37:25 | 0:37:28 | |
here at Media City
in Salford yesterday. | 0:37:28 | 0:37:30 | |
Browning spent £40,000
building the jet pack, | 0:37:30 | 0:37:32 | |
and it hits speeds
of 32 miles per hour. | 0:37:32 | 0:37:34 | |
He hopes to inspire students
to follow a career in engineering. | 0:37:34 | 0:37:39 | |
We had him in and we lifted up the
bits that do his arms and it was so | 0:37:39 | 0:37:44 | |
heavy. When you get close you can
smell the paraffin and you can see | 0:37:44 | 0:37:48 | |
the flames coming from his wrists,
it suddenly put me off having a go, | 0:37:48 | 0:37:52 | |
you need to know what you're doing
and be very experienced. Lots of | 0:37:52 | 0:37:57 | |
things happening as we speak this
morning? New Zealand, we will come | 0:37:57 | 0:38:01 | |
to the Rugby league World Cup in a
moment, England trying to reach | 0:38:01 | 0:38:05 | |
their first final 422 years but it's
been happening in the cricket. At | 0:38:05 | 0:38:09 | |
the end of the day it is time for
steady nerves. They have lost an | 0:38:09 | 0:38:14 | |
early wicket as Alastair Cook's poor
tour continues. | 0:38:14 | 0:38:21 | |
It was Australia's captain
who gradually ground down | 0:38:21 | 0:38:24 | |
the England attack on the third day
of the opening Ashes Test. | 0:38:24 | 0:38:27 | |
England started the day really
brightly as Stuart Broad bristled | 0:38:27 | 0:38:29 | |
with intent, taking
the wicket of Shaun Marsh. | 0:38:29 | 0:38:32 | |
And Broad did it | 0:38:32 | 0:38:33 | |
all himself soon after,
catching Mitchel Starc | 0:38:33 | 0:38:35 | |
off his own delivery. | 0:38:35 | 0:38:43 | |
But try as they might,
England had no answer | 0:38:43 | 0:38:47 | |
captain
Smith, | 0:38:47 | 0:38:51 | |
who remained unbeaten on 141. | 0:38:51 | 0:38:56 | |
And by the time every one
of his teamates were out, | 0:38:56 | 0:39:00 | |
Australia had built themselves
a lead of 26. | 0:39:00 | 0:39:02 | |
England have just
started batting again. | 0:39:02 | 0:39:04 | |
They got to 11 runs when Alastair
Cook was caught my Mitchell Starc. | 0:39:04 | 0:39:07 | |
He made seven today after scoring
two in the first innings. | 0:39:07 | 0:39:11 | |
England are 17-1. | 0:39:11 | 0:39:14 | |
England are on course
to reach the final of | 0:39:14 | 0:39:16 | |
the Rugby League World Cup
for the first time in 22 years. | 0:39:16 | 0:39:19 | |
They lead Tonga 14-0 in Auckland,
the winners will face Australia | 0:39:19 | 0:39:22 | |
for the titl.e e final. | 0:39:22 | 0:39:24 | |
And England made the perfect start, | 0:39:24 | 0:39:25 | |
Jermaine Mc Gillvary opened
the scoring in front | 0:39:25 | 0:39:27 | |
of a crowd packed
out with Tonga fans. | 0:39:27 | 0:39:30 | |
And they extended their lead
going into half-time, | 0:39:30 | 0:39:32 | |
Gareth Widdop managed
to ground this legally. | 0:39:32 | 0:39:34 | |
They're in the early stages
of the second half now. | 0:39:34 | 0:39:36 | |
England have lost their last three
World Cup semi-finals, | 0:39:36 | 0:39:39 | |
but they're on course
to win this one. | 0:39:39 | 0:39:43 | |
Onto football, and Wales are top
of their qualifying group | 0:39:43 | 0:39:46 | |
for the Women's World Cup
just ahead of England | 0:39:46 | 0:39:48 | |
after beating Kasakhstan in Cardiff. | 0:39:48 | 0:39:50 | |
The match marked the return
of Wales's all-time leading | 0:39:50 | 0:39:54 | |
goalscorer Helen Ward,
who played for half an hour | 0:39:54 | 0:39:57 | |
just two months after giving birth
to her second child. | 0:39:57 | 0:39:59 | |
But the only goal of the game came
from Hayley Ladd's late free kick. | 0:39:59 | 0:40:03 | |
England have a game
in hand over Wales, | 0:40:03 | 0:40:05 | |
and they made it two wins
from two last night, | 0:40:05 | 0:40:08 | |
beating Bosnia-Herzegovina
4-0 in Walsall. | 0:40:08 | 0:40:12 | |
Captain Steph Houghton scored twice
in what was interim manager | 0:40:12 | 0:40:15 | |
Mo Marley's first
competitive game in charge. | 0:40:15 | 0:40:20 | |
Really happy. Been doing a lot of
work since obviously we've been in | 0:40:20 | 0:40:25 | |
post about being a bit more creative
and, you know, the opportunities | 0:40:25 | 0:40:30 | |
that we created, obviously we're
really pleased with. Obviously tough | 0:40:30 | 0:40:35 | |
opposition, really difficult to
break down but overall really happy | 0:40:35 | 0:40:38 | |
with the performance. | 0:40:38 | 0:40:41 | |
David Moyes got his first
point as West Ham manager | 0:40:41 | 0:40:43 | |
as they drew with Leicester. | 0:40:43 | 0:40:45 | |
They had to come from behind
after Marc Albrighton | 0:40:45 | 0:40:47 | |
rewarded Leicester's bright start. | 0:40:47 | 0:40:52 | |
But whatever Moyes said at half time
galvanised the Irons, | 0:40:52 | 0:41:00 | |
and Kouyate equalised but it
wasn't enough to move | 0:41:00 | 0:41:03 | |
West Ham out of the relegation zone. | 0:41:03 | 0:41:05 | |
We are desperately trying to get a
level we think the players will need | 0:41:05 | 0:41:08 | |
to play at to get results. We think
we worked quite hard tonight and it | 0:41:08 | 0:41:13 | |
got us a point, so it shows you
we've still got a long way to go, | 0:41:13 | 0:41:17 | |
we're going to have to work harder
but I also think there were moments | 0:41:17 | 0:41:21 | |
tonight where the football was a bit
better and we gave ourselves some | 0:41:21 | 0:41:24 | |
more chances as well. | 0:41:24 | 0:41:26 | |
Dundee are off the bottom
of the Scottish Premiership | 0:41:26 | 0:41:29 | |
after adding to the recent
woes of Rangers. | 0:41:29 | 0:41:31 | |
Matt O'Hara was the star
man with the winner | 0:41:31 | 0:41:33 | |
and that was his second goal
of the night in a 2-1 win. | 0:41:33 | 0:41:37 | |
Managerless Rangers have now
lost two on the trot | 0:41:37 | 0:41:39 | |
and are fourth. | 0:41:39 | 0:41:40 | |
Lewis Hamilton seemed relieved
that the Formula 1 season is almost | 0:41:40 | 0:41:43 | |
over after breaking
the track record in practice | 0:41:43 | 0:41:45 | |
for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. | 0:41:45 | 0:41:47 | |
He kept Mercedes on top,
going a tenth of a second quicker | 0:41:47 | 0:41:50 | |
than Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel. | 0:41:50 | 0:41:51 | |
Hmilton will be looking for the 73rd
pole position of his career. | 0:41:51 | 0:41:55 | |
He said, "It's been a good Friday
but I'm happy that it's | 0:41:55 | 0:41:58 | |
the last one of the season." | 0:41:58 | 0:42:10 | |
It maybe a big weekend of rugby
union autumn internationals but it's | 0:42:10 | 0:42:13 | |
still a busy one for club sides. | 0:42:13 | 0:42:16 | |
Gloucester are up to third
in rugby union's Premiership | 0:42:16 | 0:42:19 | |
after beating Newcastle 29-7. | 0:42:19 | 0:42:20 | |
They ran in four tries,including
this from Henry Purdy, | 0:42:20 | 0:42:23 | |
showing off his footballing skills
to give Newcastle their fourth | 0:42:23 | 0:42:25 | |
defeat in a row. | 0:42:25 | 0:42:26 | |
And in the Pro14, a late
try from Andrew Trimble | 0:42:26 | 0:42:29 | |
helped Ulster beat Italian side
Treviso by a single point 23-22. | 0:42:29 | 0:42:32 | |
There were also wins for Cardiff,
Leinster and the Cheetahs. | 0:42:32 | 0:42:35 | |
Now, the journey from football field
to furlongs went far better | 0:42:35 | 0:42:38 | |
than expected for the former England
striker Michael Owen. | 0:42:38 | 0:42:40 | |
He finished second in his debut race
as a jockey and says he may | 0:42:40 | 0:42:44 | |
do it again. | 0:42:44 | 0:42:45 | |
Owen, who's 37, and had
to lose over a stone | 0:42:45 | 0:42:50 | |
in training, he was riding
Calder Prince in a Charity race | 0:42:50 | 0:42:53 | |
at Ascot, | 0:42:53 | 0:42:53 | |
the only novce in a field
of ten amateurs. | 0:42:53 | 0:42:56 | |
He says the reaction
he got on his phone | 0:42:56 | 0:42:59 | |
was almost as big as when he
played against Brazil | 0:42:59 | 0:43:01 | |
in the World Cup quarter-finals. | 0:43:01 | 0:43:03 | |
Better than I expected, must admit,
we seems to go really quick early on | 0:43:03 | 0:43:06 | |
and I thought, wow, no one can keep
this up. That's probably the fastest | 0:43:06 | 0:43:10 | |
I've ever been on a horse and it
felt like the horse slowed up into | 0:43:10 | 0:43:15 | |
the bend, whipped up on the inside
and all of a sudden I was on the | 0:43:15 | 0:43:19 | |
front and I thought, come on now,
but that was a long straight and I | 0:43:19 | 0:43:23 | |
got very tired. | 0:43:23 | 0:43:25 | |
He may do it against yellow buzzing
after that. He knows you can get | 0:43:25 | 0:43:30 | |
batted in that sport so you have to
think of the children. Fantastic | 0:43:30 | 0:43:33 | |
achievement. Very brave but he could
have pushed it harder at the end. | 0:43:33 | 0:43:39 | |
You were shaking your head, Charlie,
does that mean England have lost | 0:43:39 | 0:43:43 | |
wicket? I can see in the corner of
my eye, another wicket. I saw your | 0:43:43 | 0:43:49 | |
reaction and my heart sank. James
Vince has gone so England, 17-2. On | 0:43:49 | 0:43:56 | |
trying to do my maths, they are
still trailing but by nine. | 0:43:56 | 0:44:00 | |
Australia ending the third day very
much on top. This match as ebbed and | 0:44:00 | 0:44:05 | |
flowed one way and then the other
and in an hour I could be saying | 0:44:05 | 0:44:09 | |
England have wrestled back the
initiative. Let's hope so! | 0:44:09 | 0:44:15 | |
A chilly weekend in store for many.
Ben is having a look at the weather. | 0:44:15 | 0:44:20 | |
The Weather Watchers always make it
clear what the weather is doing, but | 0:44:23 | 0:44:27 | |
not always as clear as this. There
is frost. This was a picture sent to | 0:44:27 | 0:44:32 | |
us from Norfolk. Some places waking
up to a covering of snow. We've had | 0:44:32 | 0:44:38 | |
wintry showers in western areas.
Through the day it will remain cold | 0:44:38 | 0:44:41 | |
and windy. A mixture of sunny spells
and wintry showers. The showers | 0:44:41 | 0:44:46 | |
packing in on the wind. This area
exposed to the breeze. In northern | 0:44:46 | 0:44:53 | |
and western Scotland, the showers, a
mixture of rain, sleet and snow and | 0:44:53 | 0:44:57 | |
the potential for icy stretches on
untreated roads. Eastern Scotland | 0:44:57 | 0:45:02 | |
getting off to a cold and dry start.
Lots of showers in the north-west | 0:45:02 | 0:45:07 | |
England and Wales. Rain, sleet and
snow, perhaps with rain and thunder. | 0:45:07 | 0:45:12 | |
Across East Anglia and the
south-east are largely dry start. A | 0:45:12 | 0:45:15 | |
couple of showers overnight. Some
icy churches. Wintry showers over | 0:45:15 | 0:45:21 | |
high ground. Today the showers
continue across western areas. Most | 0:45:21 | 0:45:27 | |
of the snow confined to high ground
through the day. More likely rain at | 0:45:27 | 0:45:31 | |
lower levels. Further east, largely
dry weather. Windy, especially in | 0:45:31 | 0:45:36 | |
northern Scotland, where we are
likely to see gales and persistent | 0:45:36 | 0:45:41 | |
rain. Temperatures struggling. 3-
eight degrees at the very best. This | 0:45:41 | 0:45:46 | |
evening and tonight we continue to
see showers into the north and | 0:45:46 | 0:45:50 | |
north-west. Again, wintry showers.
Windy are that the night just gone. | 0:45:50 | 0:45:55 | |
Maybe not as cold, but having said
that towns and cities still around | 0:45:55 | 0:46:01 | |
1-2 degrees. In the countryside we
are likely to get below freezing. | 0:46:01 | 0:46:04 | |
Tomorrow we start with a high
pressure. This frontal system will | 0:46:04 | 0:46:08 | |
start to come into play later,
bringing thickening cloud into the | 0:46:08 | 0:46:12 | |
west and outbreaks of rain. The all
that happens it's another chilly | 0:46:12 | 0:46:16 | |
start. Another day of sunshine and
showers. Still wintry showers in the | 0:46:16 | 0:46:19 | |
west. Temporarily we have something
milder pushing into the west and | 0:46:19 | 0:46:25 | |
south-west later. Nine degrees in
Plymouth for the middle of the | 0:46:25 | 0:46:28 | |
afternoon. Further east another
chilly day. Compared that with the | 0:46:28 | 0:46:33 | |
temperatures down under. 26 degrees
in Brisbane during Sunday. Even here | 0:46:33 | 0:46:38 | |
not all plain sailing. The risk of
showers and spells of sunshine as | 0:46:38 | 0:46:42 | |
well. Back home, into Monday, we
have cloud and ranger in the first | 0:46:42 | 0:46:48 | |
part of Monday. Out of that clears
away as we get into Monday daytime. | 0:46:48 | 0:46:53 | |
Temporarily double-digit
temperatures in the south, but into | 0:46:53 | 0:46:57 | |
Tuesday and the rest of the coming
week it looks like we will have the | 0:46:57 | 0:47:02 | |
colder weather returning. A mixture
of sunshine and showers and some of | 0:47:02 | 0:47:06 | |
them will be wintry. That's all from
me for now. | 0:47:06 | 0:47:09 | |
Thanks very much.
Time now for a round-up of the | 0:47:09 | 0:47:14 | |
technology news in Click. | 0:47:14 | 0:47:16 | |
Time now for a round-up of the
technology news in Click. | 0:47:16 | 0:47:18 | |
On Click we often look out
for technology which can help | 0:47:37 | 0:47:40 | |
save people's lives. | 0:47:40 | 0:47:41 | |
For example, we went to Rwanda
to look at how drones were speeding | 0:47:41 | 0:47:45 | |
up deliveries of blood
and recently closer to home, | 0:47:45 | 0:47:47 | |
I looked at how the response times
of the air ambulance in London | 0:47:47 | 0:47:51 | |
were being improved
by better connectivity. | 0:47:51 | 0:47:52 | |
If you live in the developed world,
you'll probably take it for granted | 0:47:52 | 0:47:56 | |
that you can dial the emergency
number, someone will answer | 0:47:56 | 0:47:59 | |
and help will arrive. | 0:47:59 | 0:48:02 | |
Well, in Kenya, that's not the case. | 0:48:02 | 0:48:04 | |
In the capital Nairobi alone,
there are more than 50 different | 0:48:04 | 0:48:07 | |
numbers for different ambulance
services and if you need a fire | 0:48:07 | 0:48:13 | |
engine, well, that's
at least a dozen more, | 0:48:13 | 0:48:16 | |
and even then there is no guarantee
they'll be able to get to you. | 0:48:16 | 0:48:22 | |
Well, Kate Russell has been to meet
a couple of entrepreneurs who have | 0:48:22 | 0:48:29 | |
had the great idea of amalgamating
them all into one service. | 0:48:29 | 0:48:32 | |
Think Uber for emergency services. | 0:48:32 | 0:48:34 | |
For most living in a modern
metropolis, calling an ambulance | 0:48:34 | 0:48:36 | |
involves dialling
a single short code. | 0:48:36 | 0:48:38 | |
But in a city more than 6 million
people, Nairobi has no functioning | 0:48:38 | 0:48:45 | |
central emergency number. | 0:48:45 | 0:48:52 | |
With five public hospitals
and dozens of private hospitals | 0:48:52 | 0:48:54 | |
and clinics all operating
independently, you have to know | 0:48:54 | 0:48:57 | |
who to call if you need an ambulance
here and hope there's someone | 0:48:57 | 0:49:01 | |
on duty to pick up. | 0:49:01 | 0:49:08 | |
Caitlin and Maria run
a start-up in Nairobi hoping | 0:49:08 | 0:49:10 | |
to address this problem. | 0:49:10 | 0:49:11 | |
You just take for granted that 911
exists and we did as well, | 0:49:11 | 0:49:15 | |
both of us had lived here for years
and we never even considered it | 0:49:15 | 0:49:19 | |
and we'd worked in health
and I never even thought | 0:49:19 | 0:49:21 | |
what I would do in an emergency. | 0:49:21 | 0:49:23 | |
We just started asking people,
have you seen an ambulance before? | 0:49:23 | 0:49:26 | |
Who has an ambulance? | 0:49:26 | 0:49:27 | |
We would go and meet and find
ambulances in parking lots | 0:49:27 | 0:49:31 | |
and we started a really simple tally
of how many ambulances | 0:49:31 | 0:49:33 | |
we could find. | 0:49:33 | 0:49:34 | |
We realised there were so many
ambulances and nobody has any idea | 0:49:34 | 0:49:38 | |
where they are. | 0:49:38 | 0:49:41 | |
Flare's aim is to connect emergency
response vehicles on an Uber-style | 0:49:41 | 0:49:44 | |
platform that can route calls
to an operator that can | 0:49:44 | 0:49:46 | |
get there quickest. | 0:49:46 | 0:49:51 | |
When the call comes in I get to know
the patient's location, | 0:49:51 | 0:49:54 | |
I click on the location. | 0:49:54 | 0:49:56 | |
We can see all the vehicles that
are within my range. | 0:49:56 | 0:50:02 | |
I can select the ambulance service,
which is six minutes away. | 0:50:02 | 0:50:05 | |
Let's click on the ambulance service
I'm going to dispatch, | 0:50:05 | 0:50:10 | |
it gives me the contact
number and their location | 0:50:10 | 0:50:13 | |
and the estimated time. | 0:50:13 | 0:50:23 | |
It also gives me the
direction route for them. | 0:50:23 | 0:50:25 | |
Sorry, sorry? | 0:50:25 | 0:50:26 | |
Leah, emergency! | 0:50:26 | 0:50:31 | |
A busy city hospital,
we left Patrick to his work | 0:50:31 | 0:50:34 | |
and headed out onto the streets
to see first-hand the traffic | 0:50:34 | 0:50:37 | |
problems that make this kind
of operator routeing a lifesaver. | 0:50:37 | 0:50:40 | |
This was especially important
when violence broke out | 0:50:40 | 0:50:42 | |
during the October elections. | 0:50:42 | 0:50:45 | |
Flare's ambulances were 33% busier
attending to emergencies | 0:50:45 | 0:50:47 | |
in these hotspots. | 0:50:47 | 0:50:57 | |
The response times we've seen have
gone down from 162 minutes, | 0:50:57 | 0:51:00 | |
which is the average,
which is nearly three hours, | 0:51:00 | 0:51:02 | |
which is insane, to
about 15-20 minutes. | 0:51:02 | 0:51:05 | |
So far, the platform has
30 ambulances online, | 0:51:05 | 0:51:07 | |
with a goal to reach at least 50
by the end of January next year. | 0:51:07 | 0:51:12 | |
An annual membership fee gives
patients access to the emergency | 0:51:12 | 0:51:14 | |
hotline and covers the cost of any
callouts, which otherwise would have | 0:51:14 | 0:51:18 | |
had to be paid by credit card before
an ambulance is dispatched. | 0:51:18 | 0:51:21 | |
The fee is currently around $15-$20
but Flare say this might change | 0:51:21 | 0:51:24 | |
as the service matures. | 0:51:24 | 0:51:26 | |
Eventually, Flare wants to add more
concierge-style features | 0:51:26 | 0:51:29 | |
for its members, like real-time
updates and treatment information. | 0:51:29 | 0:51:33 | |
The data being collected might also
prove useful to help co-ordinate | 0:51:33 | 0:51:38 | |
better service across the city. | 0:51:38 | 0:51:47 | |
One of the things we recently
learned is there's a lack | 0:51:47 | 0:51:50 | |
of ambulances between 7am
and 9am and the reason | 0:51:50 | 0:51:53 | |
for that is that the night team
is handing over to the day team, | 0:51:53 | 0:51:58 | |
so all providers are doing that
shift change, so there's a delay | 0:51:58 | 0:52:01 | |
in that happening so then
there aren't enough ambulances | 0:52:01 | 0:52:06 | |
online to respond
to the emergencies. | 0:52:06 | 0:52:08 | |
Fire means even bigger problems
for emergency callouts in Nairobi. | 0:52:08 | 0:52:12 | |
As well as the fractured
co-ordination issues seen | 0:52:12 | 0:52:14 | |
with ambulances, there
is a desperate shortage of both | 0:52:14 | 0:52:19 | |
trucks and water supplies. | 0:52:19 | 0:52:26 | |
Tragedies like this in Nairobi's
vast clothes market Gikomba | 0:52:26 | 0:52:28 | |
are all too common and often left
burning for much longer | 0:52:28 | 0:52:31 | |
than they should be
because of a simple lack | 0:52:31 | 0:52:34 | |
of access to resources. | 0:52:34 | 0:52:37 | |
999 goes directly to
the police headquarters, | 0:52:37 | 0:52:39 | |
the police control room. | 0:52:39 | 0:52:40 | |
Once you call the police control
room, they start looking | 0:52:40 | 0:52:47 | |
for the nearest ambulance service
or the nearest fire service. | 0:52:47 | 0:52:49 | |
There's no radio linkage anywhere. | 0:52:49 | 0:52:54 | |
The phones they have
belong to individuals. | 0:52:54 | 0:52:57 | |
The fire and ambulance service
are controlled separately | 0:52:57 | 0:53:00 | |
by different players. | 0:53:00 | 0:53:02 | |
ICT Fire and Rescue is the first
firefighting school | 0:53:02 | 0:53:04 | |
of its kind in Kenya. | 0:53:04 | 0:53:06 | |
I went to visit them and got
to try out some training. | 0:53:06 | 0:53:09 | |
Flare is working with the school
to add as many firetrucks | 0:53:09 | 0:53:12 | |
as possible to their Nairobi
coverage, as well as locating | 0:53:12 | 0:53:15 | |
available public and private water
supplies to add to the map. | 0:53:15 | 0:53:23 | |
There are enough hydrants
in Nairobi theoretically, | 0:53:23 | 0:53:26 | |
they were planned for,
but a lot of the hydrants have been | 0:53:26 | 0:53:29 | |
built on top of, so we're
surveying Nairobi to see | 0:53:29 | 0:53:32 | |
where there are publicly available
hydrants and where their private | 0:53:32 | 0:53:35 | |
hydrants are that we can
actually tap into. | 0:53:35 | 0:53:44 | |
At this stage, it's unclear how
the membership funding model | 0:53:44 | 0:53:53 | |
will play out for fire cover
as callout costs could be radically | 0:53:53 | 0:53:56 | |
higher and more variable
than ambulance work. | 0:53:56 | 0:53:59 | |
Flare has high hopes of becoming
the 911 call equivalent | 0:53:59 | 0:54:02 | |
for the whole of
Kenya in the future. | 0:54:02 | 0:54:07 | |
HotStepper is a wayfinding app that
uses this scantily clad character | 0:54:15 | 0:54:18 | |
to guide you to your
designated destination. | 0:54:18 | 0:54:28 | |
It is doing so by combining AR,
geolocation data, and mapping, | 0:54:28 | 0:54:31 | |
and while it's not the only app
to overlay directions on the real | 0:54:31 | 0:54:35 | |
world, it certainly has
its unique character. | 0:54:35 | 0:54:37 | |
He's just doing a dance for some
people that are walking | 0:54:37 | 0:54:40 | |
past the pub. | 0:54:40 | 0:54:41 | |
You must be Luke. | 0:54:41 | 0:54:42 | |
Hiya. | 0:54:42 | 0:54:42 | |
Lara, good to meet you. | 0:54:42 | 0:54:44 | |
You too. | 0:54:44 | 0:54:45 | |
So why am I following
this man around? | 0:54:45 | 0:54:47 | |
Why have you designed
him looking like this? | 0:54:47 | 0:54:49 | |
After the year we have had in 2017,
I think we all needed some humour | 0:54:49 | 0:54:53 | |
so it just makes it more
interesting to get from A to B. | 0:54:53 | 0:54:57 | |
There are a lot of
navigation apps out there. | 0:54:57 | 0:54:59 | |
Why are people going
to choose this one? | 0:54:59 | 0:55:02 | |
Some people find maps
on their phones quite | 0:55:02 | 0:55:04 | |
complicated to use. | 0:55:04 | 0:55:05 | |
We have also put in gigantic 3-D
arrows at the end of the road | 0:55:05 | 0:55:08 | |
so you can follow him and can
you also see from the arrows | 0:55:08 | 0:55:12 | |
where you want to go. | 0:55:12 | 0:55:14 | |
There are some challenges -
we don't actually know where a road | 0:55:14 | 0:55:17 | |
begins and a pavement stops,
so we have to kind of do our best | 0:55:17 | 0:55:21 | |
to calculate where we think that is. | 0:55:21 | 0:55:23 | |
To make it look as believable
as possible, what we're doing | 0:55:23 | 0:55:26 | |
is trying to find out
where we think you are, | 0:55:26 | 0:55:28 | |
what the weather
is like where you are, | 0:55:28 | 0:55:31 | |
so if it's a sunny day or a cloudy | 0:55:31 | 0:55:33 | |
day, and then specifically
the location of the sun. | 0:55:33 | 0:55:36 | |
And if we can work out where the sun
is, we can then render his shadow | 0:55:36 | 0:55:40 | |
naturally to where it should be. | 0:55:40 | 0:55:42 | |
But when you're not having fun
on foot, then maybe you're trying | 0:55:42 | 0:55:45 | |
to find a place to leave your car. | 0:55:45 | 0:55:47 | |
Well, AR measuring app AirMeasure
are prototyping a function to help | 0:55:47 | 0:55:50 | |
you parallel park -
not something you would want | 0:55:50 | 0:55:53 | |
any inaccuracy on. | 0:55:53 | 0:55:58 | |
In the meantime, the app can be used
for measuring furniture, | 0:55:58 | 0:56:01 | |
creating a floor plan,
or seeing how tall you are. | 0:56:01 | 0:56:04 | |
But if you are more focused
on finding your way around and have | 0:56:04 | 0:56:08 | |
taken a shine to HotStepper,
just don't lose your friend | 0:56:08 | 0:56:10 | |
or you might lose your way. | 0:56:10 | 0:56:15 | |
OK, you cannot miss that arrow
but where has my man gone? | 0:56:15 | 0:56:18 | |
Where is he? | 0:56:18 | 0:56:20 | |
When James Bond used a jet pack
to escape the bad guys | 0:56:21 | 0:56:24 | |
in Thunderball, the world went
jet pack mad. | 0:56:24 | 0:56:30 | |
But the US military-designed
Bell Rocket Belt that he used | 0:56:30 | 0:56:33 | |
was later scrapped due to its high
price and limited flight time. | 0:56:33 | 0:56:36 | |
Almost 60 years on, science fiction
is finally becoming science fact. | 0:56:36 | 0:56:41 | |
Several companies, and even
individuals around the world, | 0:56:41 | 0:56:49 | |
have taken to the skies in recent
years to show off their versions | 0:56:49 | 0:56:52 | |
of a jet pack. | 0:56:52 | 0:56:56 | |
And recently, I was invited
to strap myself into one. | 0:56:56 | 0:56:59 | |
Fortunately, this was only in VR. | 0:56:59 | 0:57:03 | |
OK, here we go. | 0:57:03 | 0:57:04 | |
We are going to go up. | 0:57:04 | 0:57:06 | |
OK! | 0:57:06 | 0:57:11 | |
The real thing has been built
and tested by New Zealand company | 0:57:11 | 0:57:14 | |
Martin Aircraft, which has now been
bought by the KuangChi Science | 0:57:14 | 0:57:17 | |
Company in China. | 0:57:17 | 0:57:20 | |
First things first -
technically, it isn't a jet pack. | 0:57:20 | 0:57:23 | |
It lifts off using two ducted
fans which are powered | 0:57:23 | 0:57:32 | |
by a petrol engine. | 0:57:32 | 0:57:33 | |
It is still in testing but the team
hopes that by the time it is ready, | 0:57:33 | 0:57:37 | |
it will be able to fly as fast as 40
kilometres an hour at an altitude | 0:57:37 | 0:57:41 | |
of 2,500 feet. | 0:57:41 | 0:57:42 | |
On a single tank, it should last
for about 30 minutes covering | 0:57:42 | 0:57:46 | |
distances of 20 kilometres,
carrying about 100 kilos. | 0:57:46 | 0:57:48 | |
And KuangChi says it will be used
for far more than just fulfilling | 0:57:48 | 0:57:51 | |
the dream of human flight. | 0:57:51 | 0:57:57 | |
TRANSLATION: What can we do
if there are people stranded | 0:57:57 | 0:57:59 | |
in a high-rise fire? | 0:57:59 | 0:58:00 | |
This jet pack can reach places
where a helicopter cannot. | 0:58:00 | 0:58:09 | |
A helicopter requires space
but with a jet pack, | 0:58:09 | 0:58:12 | |
you can get very near
and hose the fire down. | 0:58:12 | 0:58:14 | |
Martin Aircraft has been developing
flight technology for over three | 0:58:14 | 0:58:17 | |
decades and previously thought it
would start selling these | 0:58:17 | 0:58:20 | |
by last year. | 0:58:20 | 0:58:21 | |
Now, the company hopes the Chinese
financial boost will finally be | 0:58:21 | 0:58:23 | |
enough to get it off the ground. | 0:58:23 | 0:58:26 | |
Back at my VR demo, I am starting
to realise I may not be the ideal | 0:58:26 | 0:58:30 | |
jet pack pilot. | 0:58:30 | 0:58:33 | |
Yes, that's quite enough for now. | 0:58:33 | 0:58:35 | |

Hello, this is Breakfast | 1:00:06 | 1:00:07 | |
with Naga Munchetty and Charlie
Stayt. | 1:00:07 | 1:00:09 | |
Egypt strikes back after
the deadliest terror attack | 1:00:09 | 1:00:11 | |
in the country's recent history. | 1:00:11 | 1:00:16 | |
At least 235 people were killed
at the mosque in north Sinai. | 1:00:16 | 1:00:19 | |
The military say they've carried out
air strikes on those | 1:00:19 | 1:00:22 | |
behind the killings. | 1:00:22 | 1:00:23 | |
Good morning, it's Saturday
the 25th of November. | 1:00:35 | 1:00:37 | |
Also this morning: | 1:00:37 | 1:00:42 | |
Police issue pictures of two
people they think may have | 1:00:42 | 1:00:53 | |
sparked
the confusion on the Tube | 1:00:53 | 1:00:55 | |
in London sparking panic. | 1:00:55 | 1:00:56 | |
A rise in vandalism on cars
in England and Wales, | 1:00:56 | 1:00:59 | |
the RAC says its latest figures
could be just the tip | 1:00:59 | 1:01:02 | |
of the iceberg. | 1:01:02 | 1:01:02 | |
In sport, a captain's innings
gives Australia the edge. | 1:01:02 | 1:01:12 | |
Joe Root faces the bombardment. | 1:01:12 | 1:01:14 | |
Steve Smith shows why he's
the world's number one batsman | 1:01:14 | 1:01:17 | |
with a century as Australia go
past England's total | 1:01:17 | 1:01:20 | |
in the opening Ashes Test. | 1:01:20 | 1:01:21 | |
As analysts predict record
spending on Black Friday, | 1:01:21 | 1:01:23 | |
we hear the thoughts of some
keen bargain hunters. | 1:01:23 | 1:01:26 | |
Just came for Black Friday,
ended up | 1:01:26 | 1:01:28 | |
buying a television,
headphones, clothes, | 1:01:28 | 1:01:29 | |
jewellery, all sorts of things. | 1:01:29 | 1:01:30 | |
And Ben has the weekend weather. | 1:01:30 | 1:01:32 | |
Good morning. | 1:01:32 | 1:01:32 | |
A cold, frosty and in places icy
start but the reward will be some | 1:01:32 | 1:01:36 | |
crisp autumn sunshine. | 1:01:36 | 1:01:37 | |
Some wintry showers as well. | 1:01:37 | 1:01:38 | |
All the weekend weather
details coming up. | 1:01:38 | 1:01:40 | |
See you soon, Ben. | 1:01:40 | 1:01:41 | |
Good morning. | 1:01:41 | 1:01:42 | |
First, our main story. | 1:01:42 | 1:01:43 | |
Egypt's military says it carried out
air strikes on those behind | 1:01:43 | 1:01:46 | |
the deadliest Islamist terror attack
in the country's recent history. | 1:01:46 | 1:01:49 | |
235 people were killed
and more than 100 injured | 1:01:49 | 1:01:51 | |
after gunmen detonated a bomb
and stormed a packed mosque | 1:01:51 | 1:01:54 | |
in North Sinai yesterday. | 1:01:54 | 1:01:55 | |
Egypt's air force says it has
destroyed vehicles used | 1:01:55 | 1:01:57 | |
by the militants, as well as weapons
and ammunition at what it described | 1:01:57 | 1:02:01 | |
as terrorist locations. | 1:02:01 | 1:02:02 | |
Orla Guerin's report contains
some distressing images. | 1:02:02 | 1:02:05 | |
A rush to save those wounded
when a place of worship became | 1:02:05 | 1:02:08 | |
a place of carnage. | 1:02:08 | 1:02:17 | |
The attackers struck
during Friday prayers. | 1:02:17 | 1:02:19 | |
For Egypt, this was a grim
new first, a massacre in a mosque. | 1:02:19 | 1:02:22 | |
The mosque was popular
with Sufi Muslims, who revere saints | 1:02:22 | 1:02:25 | |
and shrines, and are viewed
as heretics by Islamic extremists. | 1:02:25 | 1:02:37 | |
Within hours, a televised address
to a nation in shock. | 1:02:37 | 1:02:40 | |
President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi
telling Egyptians their anguish | 1:02:40 | 1:02:42 | |
would not be in vain and there
would be decisive punishment. | 1:02:42 | 1:02:45 | |
The sophisticated assault
on the mosque was the latest attack | 1:02:45 | 1:02:48 | |
by militants based in Sinai. | 1:02:48 | 1:02:55 | |
The state has been
battling them for years. | 1:02:55 | 1:02:58 | |
The most deadly previous attack
by IS here was the downing of this | 1:02:58 | 1:03:03 | |
Russian aircraft in Sinai in 2015,
with the loss of 224 lives. | 1:03:03 | 1:03:06 | |
In the past year, IS have killed
scores of Christians in three | 1:03:06 | 1:03:10 | |
attacks on churches,
saying followers of the cross | 1:03:10 | 1:03:12 | |
were their favourite prey. | 1:03:12 | 1:03:20 | |
This time, militants in Sinai have
targeted their fellow Muslims, | 1:03:20 | 1:03:23 | |
showing no mercy. | 1:03:23 | 1:03:27 | |
Outside local hospitals,
crowds waited to donate blood. | 1:03:27 | 1:03:29 | |
After a day of horror,
many Egyptians now fearful | 1:03:29 | 1:03:32 | |
about what might come next. | 1:03:32 | 1:03:33 | |
Orla Guerin, BBC News, Cairo. | 1:03:33 | 1:03:47 | |
We will talk to a security and
intelligence expert about what this | 1:03:47 | 1:03:52 | |
attack means to the region just
after 9am. | 1:03:52 | 1:03:56 | |
Police have released CCTV images
of two men they want to speak | 1:03:56 | 1:03:59 | |
to after panic broke out
on the streets of London yesterday | 1:03:59 | 1:04:02 | |
afternoon, injuring 16 people. | 1:04:02 | 1:04:03 | |
Armed officers were called
following reports of gunfire | 1:04:03 | 1:04:05 | |
at Oxford Circus Tube station, | 1:04:05 | 1:04:07 | |
but investigators now say
there is no evidence weapons | 1:04:07 | 1:04:09 | |
had been fired. | 1:04:09 | 1:04:10 | |
Our reporter Andy Moore
is in central London for us now. | 1:04:10 | 1:04:13 | |
Andy, what more do we know
about what happened yesterday? | 1:04:13 | 1:04:19 | |
British Transport Police are trying
to piece that together. We know the | 1:04:19 | 1:04:23 | |
incident happened at 4:37 p.m., the
busiest time on one of the busiest | 1:04:23 | 1:04:28 | |
days of the year. Police responded
very quickly, they responded as if | 1:04:28 | 1:04:33 | |
it was a terror incident.
Eyewitnesses talk about a fight | 1:04:33 | 1:04:37 | |
starting on the Tube platform and
Transport Police have released two | 1:04:37 | 1:04:41 | |
images of men they would like to
trace in connection with what they | 1:04:41 | 1:04:45 | |
are calling an altercation that
erupted. With me is David, a former | 1:04:45 | 1:04:50 | |
counterterror officer. Police are
getting multiple reports of gunfire | 1:04:50 | 1:04:56 | |
at various locations, it must be a
nightmare to deal with? Very much | 1:04:56 | 1:05:00 | |
so. Turning up here at any time of
day is difficult but especially when | 1:05:00 | 1:05:05 | |
there's panic like yesterday and the
police officers turning up will have | 1:05:05 | 1:05:09 | |
a scant amount of information,
they're simply told there are | 1:05:09 | 1:05:12 | |
reports of gunshots and people
running away. And they will turn up | 1:05:12 | 1:05:17 | |
and there will be an attempt to work
out what's going on. Very difficult | 1:05:17 | 1:05:21 | |
when you got lots of people running
around and lots of people telling | 1:05:21 | 1:05:27 | |
you conflicting information, and
you're trying to look for suspects | 1:05:27 | 1:05:29 | |
among the people running away and
it's very confusing. But the police | 1:05:29 | 1:05:33 | |
are well trained, they do look to
try to shut down these things as | 1:05:33 | 1:05:37 | |
quickly as possible and move things
away but some of the information | 1:05:37 | 1:05:41 | |
that the government had put out,
run, hide, tell, it's quite | 1:05:41 | 1:05:46 | |
difficult for people to find out
what's gone on when people are | 1:05:46 | 1:05:49 | |
running away and they're not giving
the information they should do. This | 1:05:49 | 1:05:52 | |
was a false alarm but is there
anything we could do to spread this | 1:05:52 | 1:05:57 | |
panic, hysteria, or is it something
we have to deal with in present | 1:05:57 | 1:06:01 | |
circumstances? Yesterday there was
an attack in Egypt, 235 killed. Here | 1:06:01 | 1:06:08 | |
we've got people running around
saying there's gunshots being fired | 1:06:08 | 1:06:13 | |
and we're approaching the
anniversary of the Berlin market | 1:06:13 | 1:06:15 | |
attack. People are worried about
their safety. There isn't a great | 1:06:15 | 1:06:19 | |
deal we can do. Social media doesn't
help, there's lots of disinformation | 1:06:19 | 1:06:24 | |
on social media. Stick with reliable
sources of information. David, thank | 1:06:24 | 1:06:30 | |
you very much. 16 people were
injured in the panic to get away | 1:06:30 | 1:06:35 | |
yesterday, seven treated at the
scene, eight were taken to hospital | 1:06:35 | 1:06:39 | |
with minor injuries, one with more
serious leg injuries. Naga. Andy, | 1:06:39 | 1:06:42 | |
thank you. | 1:06:42 | 1:06:44 | |
There's no clear link
between the number of prison | 1:06:44 | 1:06:47 | |
suicides and overcrowding,
a new international study suggests. | 1:06:47 | 1:06:49 | |
Packed prison cells have
traditionally been thought | 1:06:49 | 1:06:51 | |
of as a highly significant factor. | 1:06:51 | 1:06:53 | |
However, the research published
in the Lancet sychiatry | 1:06:53 | 1:06:55 | |
journal did conclude that suicides
could be cut by sending fewer people | 1:06:55 | 1:06:58 | |
with mental illnesses to prison. | 1:06:58 | 1:07:05 | |
There are no simple explanations
for this prison suicide, | 1:07:05 | 1:07:07 | |
so overcrowding, prisoner numbers,
prison officer numbers, | 1:07:07 | 1:07:09 | |
how much you spend on prison,
that didn't seem to be | 1:07:09 | 1:07:12 | |
an explanation for these differences
in rates of suicide. | 1:07:12 | 1:07:20 | |
Glasgow Airport was closed
temporarily last night after a tug | 1:07:20 | 1:07:22 | |
vehicle hit a passenger plane
which was preparing for take-off. | 1:07:22 | 1:07:25 | |
Flights were delayed and diverted
after the runway froze | 1:07:25 | 1:07:28 | |
in bitterly cold temperatures. | 1:07:28 | 1:07:29 | |
It's thought the tug may have
skidded on ice as the plane | 1:07:29 | 1:07:32 | |
was pushed back from the stand. | 1:07:32 | 1:07:34 | |
No-one was injured and
the airport has now reopened. | 1:07:34 | 1:07:38 | |
The President of Argentina,
Mauricio Macri, | 1:07:38 | 1:07:40 | |
has ordered an inquiry
into what happened to a navy | 1:07:40 | 1:07:42 | |
submarine that disappeared
over a week ago. | 1:07:42 | 1:07:44 | |
Hopes have faded of finding any
of the 44 people onboard alive | 1:07:44 | 1:07:48 | |
after the Argentine navy
said an event consistent | 1:07:48 | 1:07:50 | |
with an explosion was detected near
the submarine's last-known location. | 1:07:50 | 1:07:59 | |
Car vandalism in England and Wales
has jumped by 10% in three years. | 1:07:59 | 1:08:03 | |
210,000 vehicles suffered criminal
damage such as smashed windows | 1:08:03 | 1:08:05 | |
and slashed tyres in 2016, | 1:08:05 | 1:08:07 | |
according to data obtained by RAC
Insurance. | 1:08:07 | 1:08:09 | |
It's believed that the figures
could be even higher as many | 1:08:09 | 1:08:11 | |
motorists don't report incidents
because they fear it | 1:08:11 | 1:08:14 | |
would push their
insurance premiums up. | 1:08:14 | 1:08:15 | |
Richard Lister reports. | 1:08:15 | 1:08:18 | |
It's an infuriating problem
for motorists and it's on the rise. | 1:08:18 | 1:08:23 | |
Around 60 cars were vandalised
on this Colchester industrial estate | 1:08:23 | 1:08:27 | |
in August, costing of pounds to fix. | 1:08:27 | 1:08:33 | |
New police figures show that
across the country more than 210,000 | 1:08:33 | 1:08:36 | |
cars suffered criminal
damage last year. | 1:08:36 | 1:08:40 | |
That's up 10% since 2013. | 1:08:40 | 1:08:44 | |
But the increase in Hertfordshire
and in West Yorkshire was 25%, | 1:08:44 | 1:08:47 | |
while Greater Manchester
saw a 37% rise. | 1:08:47 | 1:08:49 | |
And none of us are immune. | 1:08:49 | 1:08:53 | |
In 2009, the former cabinet minister
Hazel Blears found her car had been | 1:08:53 | 1:08:57 | |
attacked by vandals. | 1:08:57 | 1:08:59 | |
Slashed tyres and broken windows
mean a vehicle can be off | 1:08:59 | 1:09:02 | |
the road for days. | 1:09:02 | 1:09:04 | |
Very frustrating for a motorist
because of the inconvenience, | 1:09:04 | 1:09:06 | |
the cost and the time it takes
to actually get an effective repair | 1:09:06 | 1:09:10 | |
but we also feel it's probably just
the tip of the iceberg because many | 1:09:10 | 1:09:13 | |
people won't actually report a small
incident of vandalism and certainly | 1:09:13 | 1:09:16 | |
won't make an insurance claim. | 1:09:16 | 1:09:24 | |
In this area near Luton Airport,
holidaymakers who parked | 1:09:24 | 1:09:26 | |
in residential streets to avoid
airport car parks had an unwelcome | 1:09:26 | 1:09:31 | |
surprise when they returned. | 1:09:31 | 1:09:35 | |
Paying for secure parking
would have been cheaper. | 1:09:35 | 1:09:37 | |
And if that's not available,
the advice is to find well lit | 1:09:37 | 1:09:40 | |
unobtrusive spaces
to avoid the vandals. | 1:09:40 | 1:09:42 | |

Mike will have the latest on the
sport, the cricket is under way, and | 1:09:51 | 1:09:56 | |

We can go back to our main story
and the attack on a mosque | 1:09:57 | 1:10:01 | |
in North Sinai, which
killed 235 people. | 1:10:01 | 1:10:03 | |
Our correspondent
Sally Nabil is in Cairo. | 1:10:03 | 1:10:05 | |
Do we know any more
about who carried out the attack? | 1:10:05 | 1:10:23 | |
The number has risen overnight and
according to some medical sources in | 1:10:23 | 1:10:28 | |
northern Sinai, they issued 300
death certificates. That was kind of | 1:10:28 | 1:10:33 | |
expected because we know that many
of those injured are in a critical | 1:10:33 | 1:10:38 | |
condition. This number might not
even be final, we don't know if | 1:10:38 | 1:10:43 | |
things are going to change in the
next few hours. As for the response, | 1:10:43 | 1:10:48 | |
the Egyptian army issued a statement
saying they managed to carry out a | 1:10:48 | 1:10:52 | |
number of airstrikes that targeted
the vehicles believed to have taken | 1:10:52 | 1:10:57 | |
part in this attack and there were a
number of militants inside these | 1:10:57 | 1:11:03 | |
vehicles, and they managed to kill
them all, according to the military | 1:11:03 | 1:11:07 | |
statement. This comes just a few
hours after President Sisi vowed | 1:11:07 | 1:11:12 | |
retaliation and he said these kind
of attacks are not going to | 1:11:12 | 1:11:16 | |
intimidate Egyptians, it will only
make them more determined and | 1:11:16 | 1:11:20 | |
stronger. Sally, thanks very much,
reporting from Cairo | 1:11:20 | 1:11:27 | |
stronger. Sally, thanks very much,
reporting from Cairo. | 1:11:27 | 1:11:29 | |
The DUP conference gets
under way later today | 1:11:29 | 1:11:32 | |
and while there are plenty
of problems at home, | 1:11:32 | 1:11:34 | |
Northern Ireland still doesn't
have a government in place, | 1:11:34 | 1:11:37 | |
it will be the party's
ambitions for Brexit | 1:11:37 | 1:11:39 | |
commanding everyone's attention. | 1:11:39 | 1:11:40 | |
Leader Arlene Foster
will address her colleagues under | 1:11:40 | 1:11:42 | |
more scrutiny than
perhaps ever before. | 1:11:42 | 1:11:44 | |
Jon Tonge is a professor of politics
at the University of Liverpool | 1:11:44 | 1:11:47 | |
and joins us now from Belfast. | 1:11:47 | 1:11:49 | |
Good morning, lovely to see you. Why
should we be... What should we be | 1:11:49 | 1:11:52 | |
looking for in terms of nuances
today at the DUP conference? What | 1:11:52 | 1:11:56 | |
we're looking for is a clear
statement from the DUP as to what it | 1:11:56 | 1:12:01 | |
once in terms of the border. Their
position, though, is becoming clear. | 1:12:01 | 1:12:05 | |
It's in opposition to what the EU,
the Irish government and the | 1:12:05 | 1:12:10 | |
opposition parties want at
Westminster, which is basically | 1:12:10 | 1:12:13 | |
Northern Ireland to continue in a
special customs union with the Irish | 1:12:13 | 1:12:17 | |
Republic. That would allow their to
be no customs regime at the border | 1:12:17 | 1:12:22 | |
on the island of Ireland, you would
simply see continued trade as normal | 1:12:22 | 1:12:27 | |
between Northern Ireland and the
Irish Republic. The DUP doesn't want | 1:12:27 | 1:12:30 | |
that because basically they want to
remain an integral part of the | 1:12:30 | 1:12:34 | |
United Kingdom. If there was a
bespoke UK Irish Republic deal, that | 1:12:34 | 1:12:39 | |
would be OK for the DUP but they
don't want a Northern Ireland deal, | 1:12:39 | 1:12:43 | |
which they believe would push
Northern Ireland close to a united | 1:12:43 | 1:12:47 | |
Ireland. It would give Northern
Ireland special status within the | 1:12:47 | 1:12:51 | |
European Union so Arlene Foster will
as leader of the DUP this afternoon | 1:12:51 | 1:12:55 | |
make it abundantly clear it's not
on, and try selling that to the DUP | 1:12:55 | 1:13:00 | |
when you're so beholden to them as a
Conservative government, those ten | 1:13:00 | 1:13:04 | |
DUP MPs are probably the most
valuable in the world after | 1:13:04 | 1:13:07 | |
extracting £1 billion from this
government so this deal is an | 1:13:07 | 1:13:10 | |
sellable. How much influence is
Arlene Foster having as the head of | 1:13:10 | 1:13:18 | |
the party, considering how crucial
the DUP support has been to prop up | 1:13:18 | 1:13:23 | |
the Conservative government? The
fact there is no government in | 1:13:23 | 1:13:26 | |
Northern Ireland is a problem for
Arlene Foster, she's leading her | 1:13:26 | 1:13:29 | |
party from Belfast but the axis of
power is very much from Westminster | 1:13:29 | 1:13:33 | |
where the DUP ten MPs are very
powerful indeed. Their lead at | 1:13:33 | 1:13:38 | |
Westminster is Nigel Dodds and in
many ways power has gravitated to | 1:13:38 | 1:13:41 | |
him -- leader. The DUP once
restoration of power sharing in | 1:13:41 | 1:13:47 | |
Northern Ireland but the DUP will
not give round to Sinn Fein on their | 1:13:47 | 1:13:50 | |
key demand, which is bore a
stand-alone Irish language act -- | 1:13:50 | 1:13:56 | |
wants. Arlene Foster will make it
clear there can be an Irish language | 1:13:56 | 1:14:01 | |
act but only as part of a broader
act that protects British culture in | 1:14:01 | 1:14:05 | |
Northern Ireland -- is for. Sinn
Fein will say that's not good enough | 1:14:05 | 1:14:09 | |
and they will say ten years ago the
British Government promised an Irish | 1:14:09 | 1:14:13 | |
language act in the St Andrews
agreement, so Sinn Fein are only | 1:14:13 | 1:14:17 | |
saying they want what is promised.
But the DUP have dug in on this, as | 1:14:17 | 1:14:22 | |
have Sinn Fein, and the show can't
continue for much longer and the | 1:14:22 | 1:14:27 | |
Secretary of State for Northern
Ireland will say we have to suspend | 1:14:27 | 1:14:30 | |
the devolved government permanently
and all 90 assembly members will | 1:14:30 | 1:14:33 | |
lose their jobs and Arlene Foster's
position... Frankly she would be | 1:14:33 | 1:14:38 | |
jobless in Northern Ireland.
Interesting to see what happens. | 1:14:38 | 1:14:42 | |
Thanks, Jon Tonge, professor of

Here's Ben with a look
at this morning's weather. | 1:14:49 | 1:14:50 | |
Good morning. It may be autumn but
the Wetheriggs doing a good | 1:14:50 | 1:14:57 | |
impression of winter this morning.
-- the weather's doing. Some people | 1:14:57 | 1:15:03 | |
waking up to their first snow of the
season. Wintry showers in | 1:15:03 | 1:15:07 | |
Staffordshire from one of our
Weather Watchers and for many more | 1:15:07 | 1:15:11 | |
it's a cold and frosty start to the
day. As we go through the day it | 1:15:11 | 1:15:16 | |
will stay cold and quite windy with
the mixture of sunny spells and also | 1:15:16 | 1:15:20 | |
some wintry showers. Those showers
packing in on the wind. Showers | 1:15:20 | 1:15:26 | |
falling as a mixture of rain, sleet,
hail and snow, not only over high | 1:15:26 | 1:15:31 | |
ground in western Scotland, even
lower levels has snow, with the risk | 1:15:31 | 1:15:37 | |
of icy stretches. Eastern Scotland
starting dry and bright, but very | 1:15:37 | 1:15:41 | |
cold. Down on the north-west England
and Wales, a few showers and sleet | 1:15:41 | 1:15:46 | |
and snow mixed in. Even snow to
lower levels at times. East Anglia | 1:15:46 | 1:15:50 | |
and the south-east could have the
odd icy patch through the night. | 1:15:50 | 1:15:55 | |
Lots of showers in the south-west
England. These are wintry over high | 1:15:55 | 1:15:58 | |
ground. Through the day we continue
to see showers. At the levels most | 1:15:58 | 1:16:03 | |
of the showers in the west will turn
back to rain, but still sleet and | 1:16:03 | 1:16:08 | |
snow over high ground. Persistent
sleet and snow over high ground in | 1:16:08 | 1:16:12 | |
Scotland. Windy, gales at times.
Further east, the better chance of | 1:16:12 | 1:16:17 | |
staying dry. Crisp autumn sunshine
and feeling chilly, 4- eight degrees | 1:16:17 | 1:16:22 | |
is the best we can expect. Into the
night central and eastern areas have | 1:16:22 | 1:16:28 | |
a lot of dry weather. Still showers
into the west. Windy then last | 1:16:28 | 1:16:31 | |
night. Maybe not as cold. These are
town and city temperatures. The | 1:16:31 | 1:16:38 | |
countryside could get below
freezing. Another frosty start to | 1:16:38 | 1:16:41 | |
tomorrow morning. Not a bad start to
the day. But then the frontal system | 1:16:41 | 1:16:47 | |
pushes on from the west. It will
change things later. Initially a | 1:16:47 | 1:16:51 | |
story of sunshine and showers. Then
the showers fade before the cloud | 1:16:51 | 1:16:56 | |
comes in from the west. Particular
if Northern Ireland we have more | 1:16:56 | 1:17:00 | |
persistent rain arriving by the end
of the date and with that hints of | 1:17:00 | 1:17:04 | |
something a little bit milder for a
time. The further east you are, | 1:17:04 | 1:17:08 | |
another chilly day. In Australia for
the in Brisbane a different feel. | 1:17:08 | 1:17:13 | |
It's spring in Australia. 36
degrees, with the risk of a shower | 1:17:13 | 1:17:19 | |
-- 26. Back home on Monday through
the early part we have rain sweeping | 1:17:19 | 1:17:24 | |
south. Maybe hill snow for a time in
Scotland. It temporarily turns | 1:17:24 | 1:17:29 | |
milder, but that won't last. We get
back into the deep freeze on | 1:17:29 | 1:17:33 | |
Tuesday. Cold air sweeping
southwards and that will be with us | 1:17:33 | 1:17:37 | |
southwards and that will be with us
throughout the week ahead. | 1:17:37 | 1:17:39 | |
In the deep freeze? That doesn't
sound nice. | 1:17:39 | 1:17:42 | |
Not very nice, but at least we get
sunshine. | 1:17:42 | 1:17:47 | |
Can't complain too much. Thanks very
much. | 1:17:47 | 1:17:50 | |
Hundreds of thousands of shoppers
snapped up a Black Friday bargain | 1:17:50 | 1:17:58 | |
yesterday, with estimates that more
than £2.5 billion were spent in one | 1:17:58 | 1:18:02 | |
day alone, but was it a record
breaking year for retailers? | 1:18:02 | 1:18:04 | |
We've been out in Manchester to see
what shoppers had to say. | 1:18:04 | 1:18:07 | |
Done a bit of Christmas shopping. | 1:18:17 | 1:18:19 | |
I hadn't planned
on Christmas shopping. | 1:18:19 | 1:18:20 | |
I've got half my Christmas
presents sorted. | 1:18:20 | 1:18:22 | |
I spent less than
what I thought today. | 1:18:22 | 1:18:25 | |
I came with a budget and I'm
going home with more | 1:18:25 | 1:18:27 | |
than what I thought
I was going to go home with. | 1:18:27 | 1:18:31 | |
Just came for Black Friday,
ended up buying a television, | 1:18:31 | 1:18:33 | |
headphones, clothes, jewellery,
all sorts of things. | 1:18:33 | 1:18:39 | |
We actually got Friday off
with our friends and so it just | 1:18:39 | 1:18:42 | |
happened to fall
on Black Friday, which is handy, | 1:18:42 | 1:18:45 | |
so we got lots of bargains. | 1:18:45 | 1:18:46 | |
We're just girls out on a Friday! | 1:18:46 | 1:18:48 | |
Some places we got 25%
off, some had 10% off. | 1:18:48 | 1:18:51 | |
I guess any percentage,
any discount is better than having | 1:18:51 | 1:18:54 | |
nothing so we've done well I think. | 1:18:54 | 1:18:55 | |
We've not overspent I think,
what we've done is we knew | 1:18:55 | 1:18:59 | |
what we needed to get and we've come
out and we've got that really. | 1:18:59 | 1:19:02 | |
So, yeah, quite a positive
experience with it. | 1:19:02 | 1:19:04 | |
Millie feels like she's overspent. | 1:19:04 | 1:19:06 | |
I've overspent. | 1:19:06 | 1:19:06 | |
I think it's all about self love! | 1:19:06 | 1:19:12 | |
How have the retail stunt? Katherine
is from a retail agency and we have | 1:19:12 | 1:19:21 | |
someone from Retail Economics
Research, a consultancy firm. I | 1:19:21 | 1:19:28 | |
stayed in on Thursday and did some
shopping. Like lots of people did. | 1:19:28 | 1:19:32 | |
The biggest increase in shopping
online was between 6pm and 7pm, so | 1:19:32 | 1:19:37 | |
shopping in pyjamas. Then I was out
in the stores yesterday to see how | 1:19:37 | 1:19:41 | |
busy it got. Once the kids went to
school yesterday the stores filled | 1:19:41 | 1:19:45 | |
up. Yesterday in Leeds it was
heaving by lunchtime. So there's | 1:19:45 | 1:19:49 | |
been a real mixture. Online shopping
in even on and on the way to work. | 1:19:49 | 1:19:55 | |
So smart phones have taken over this
year in terms of the way people have | 1:19:55 | 1:19:59 | |
shocked. -- shopped. I don't know
what evidence we have in terms of | 1:19:59 | 1:20:06 | |
the numbers. What's the information
coming through? I think the reality | 1:20:06 | 1:20:11 | |
is that like Friday hasn't finished
yet and will still go into next | 1:20:11 | 1:20:14 | |
week. -- Black Friday. We've had a
weaker leading into it. Retailers | 1:20:14 | 1:20:20 | |
will still be counting their profits
next week. This year the backdrop | 1:20:20 | 1:20:27 | |
for households is more challenging.
Inflation is at a five-year high, so | 1:20:27 | 1:20:32 | |
spending is under real pressure.
This is taking its toll on | 1:20:32 | 1:20:36 | |
consumers, so whether or not Black
Friday will be as good as last year | 1:20:36 | 1:20:41 | |
remains to be seen. Do you think
consumers are becoming wiser to the | 1:20:41 | 1:20:45 | |
fact that the sales happen in the to
Christmas, so they are perhaps not | 1:20:45 | 1:20:49 | |
buying presents, maybe just
thinking, I need that, I was going | 1:20:49 | 1:20:54 | |
to buy it anyway, so it's cheaper
and take advantage? I think that the | 1:20:54 | 1:20:58 | |
case. I think there are two macro
factors. In a lot of cases there's | 1:20:58 | 1:21:03 | |
been pent-up demand since October.
The figures in October were | 1:21:03 | 1:21:06 | |
particularly sure. The pent-up
demand where consumers have delayed | 1:21:06 | 1:21:10 | |
spending, waiting for the Black
Friday sale. But at the same time | 1:21:10 | 1:21:16 | |
it's pulling sails away from
Christmas. That traditional buildup | 1:21:16 | 1:21:19 | |
of retail sales in the to Christmas
is being distorted I Black Friday | 1:21:19 | 1:21:24 | |
and consumers are bringing forward
those purchases. On that theme of | 1:21:24 | 1:21:28 | |
what is a real sale and when are
things cheapest, are people being | 1:21:28 | 1:21:34 | |
duped? Are they really cheaper on
Black Friday than January, for | 1:21:34 | 1:21:39 | |
example? Or close to Christmas when
maybe retailers get worried again? | 1:21:39 | 1:21:46 | |
Pent-up demand is there from
October, as we said. There are great | 1:21:46 | 1:21:50 | |
deals about this weekend, so you
must get the deals but do your | 1:21:50 | 1:21:54 | |
homework. Check what the price was,
because there could be better deals. | 1:21:54 | 1:21:59 | |
At this Black Friday has been
successful, 7% up on last year, and | 1:21:59 | 1:22:06 | |
it will take about £5 billion over
the weekend. If you are going to go | 1:22:06 | 1:22:11 | |
out and buy yourself a party dress
and it is to 5% off this weekend, | 1:22:11 | 1:22:15 | |
now is the time to buy it. I'm not
planning to buy a party dress this | 1:22:15 | 1:22:19 | |
weekend, will be closer to
Christmas. But how do people know | 1:22:19 | 1:22:23 | |
they are getting a genuine sale? You
say to your homework. You see the | 1:22:23 | 1:22:28 | |
60% or 70%. How do you know
whether... People often think they | 1:22:28 | 1:22:33 | |
are being slightly messed with. What
are they comparing it with? Some of | 1:22:33 | 1:22:39 | |
the deals yesterday, there were some
70% of deals, these were on summer | 1:22:39 | 1:22:46 | |
where, like a bikini. So think about
what you want to buy. If you watch | 1:22:46 | 1:22:52 | |
all of the time, lots of us tend to
stop products and look at what we | 1:22:52 | 1:22:57 | |
want to buy. Make sure you do that
work. There are loads of price | 1:22:57 | 1:23:01 | |
checking websites. And also the
thing that you need or want. Don't | 1:23:01 | 1:23:06 | |
be duped to buying things you don't
really need. That's always the trick | 1:23:06 | 1:23:10 | |
with shopping. Gui Finkler you are
going to see the panic you see on | 1:23:10 | 1:23:16 | |
Christmas Eve -- do you think. When
retailers say, we haven't quite hit | 1:23:16 | 1:23:21 | |
the last-minute sales. Is that going
to happen? I think there's an | 1:23:21 | 1:23:28 | |
element of competitive advantage
when it comes to Black Friday. For | 1:23:28 | 1:23:32 | |
the industry as a whole, whether
it's a good event for the industry, | 1:23:32 | 1:23:36 | |
it's probably not. But what we've
seen is that there's a shift towards | 1:23:36 | 1:23:42 | |
spending online and so spending is
more fragmented across categories. | 1:23:42 | 1:23:47 | |
So electricals will do well and
clothing and footwear will do well. | 1:23:47 | 1:23:52 | |
So if you are retailer operating
those particular parts of the | 1:23:52 | 1:23:55 | |
market, it's very difficult not to
get involved in Black Friday because | 1:23:55 | 1:24:00 | |
otherwise you are losing market
share to competitors. It is | 1:24:00 | 1:24:03 | |
spreading now. How long have you got
if you want to take advantage of | 1:24:03 | 1:24:08 | |
these offers? Probably from last
weekend until the middle of next | 1:24:08 | 1:24:12 | |
week. The genie is out of the bottle
and it's excellent for shoppers, but | 1:24:12 | 1:24:17 | |
not great for the retailers. It's a
really good time of year. As you get | 1:24:17 | 1:24:22 | |
paid this weekend, now is the time
to go. But probably until Monday or | 1:24:22 | 1:24:26 | |
Tuesday. But there will be panic in
the last week if retailers have | 1:24:26 | 1:24:31 | |
stock left. Thanks for your
expertise this morning. | 1:24:31 | 1:24:37 | |
They were called the 'Dreadnoughts
of the Trenches' that changed | 1:24:37 | 1:24:40 | |
the face of modern warfare. | 1:24:40 | 1:24:41 | |
Now, 100 years since the first tanks
were deployed in the battle | 1:24:41 | 1:24:47 | |
of Cambrai, members
of the Royal Tank Regiment have | 1:24:47 | 1:24:49 | |
returned to the French town
to mark the loss of life. | 1:24:49 | 1:24:52 | |
Robert Hall joined the crowds
paying their respects. | 1:24:52 | 1:24:56 | |
On the terraced lawn
of the Cambrai Memorial, | 1:24:56 | 1:25:00 | |
today's tank crews look back
to a week which cemented the bonds | 1:25:00 | 1:25:03 | |
of a new military family. | 1:25:03 | 1:25:06 | |
These men will tell you stories
of the friendship and teamwork | 1:25:06 | 1:25:10 | |
particular to this regiment,
as true now as it was a century ago. | 1:25:10 | 1:25:17 | |
In November, 1917, the early tank
men clambered into over 400 | 1:25:17 | 1:25:20 | |
lumbering machines for the largest
tank attack ever mounted. | 1:25:20 | 1:25:24 | |
Inside the metal hulls,
crews were overcome by heat | 1:25:24 | 1:25:27 | |
and exhaust fumes. | 1:25:27 | 1:25:27 | |
Many tanks broke down. | 1:25:27 | 1:25:31 | |
But courage and determination took
most of their objectives. | 1:25:31 | 1:25:35 | |
Major Arthur Griffiths was one
of those honoured for his bravery. | 1:25:35 | 1:25:38 | |
Having seen some of
the pressures of conflict, | 1:25:38 | 1:25:42 | |
it's particularly poignant. | 1:25:42 | 1:25:49 | |
You understand what the pressures
on him were at the time. | 1:25:49 | 1:25:53 | |
I think the standout point for me
was in the tank you would make sure | 1:25:53 | 1:25:57 | |
the bullet was hitting the front
of the tank and then you would know | 1:25:57 | 1:26:00 | |
you were going the right
way towards the enemy. | 1:26:00 | 1:26:03 | |
Surviving tanks are now
too fragile to run. | 1:26:03 | 1:26:05 | |
This is a copy made
for the film War Horse. | 1:26:05 | 1:26:11 | |
One battle scarred veteran has been
adopted by the French village | 1:26:11 | 1:26:14 | |
where it fought. | 1:26:14 | 1:26:19 | |
Tank D51, Deborah to her crew,
was abandoned and lost. | 1:26:19 | 1:26:28 | |
Until a local historian
found her in 1998 and began the task | 1:26:28 | 1:26:31 | |
of restoring her. | 1:26:31 | 1:26:32 | |
Today, Deborah is the centrepiece
of a new museum commemorating her | 1:26:32 | 1:26:35 | |
part in the battle and
the five crewmen she lost. | 1:26:35 | 1:26:39 | |
When there are not many people,
I'm always moved when I'm here. | 1:26:39 | 1:26:44 | |
It's part of myself
and it is simply a love story. | 1:26:44 | 1:26:47 | |
A love story which started 25 years
ago when first I met an old lady | 1:26:47 | 1:26:51 | |
who let me know that she knew
a place where the tank was buried. | 1:26:51 | 1:26:55 | |
For me it was exactly as if she had
given me a map to find a treasure. | 1:26:55 | 1:27:00 | |
When the five men who now lie
together at this military cemetery | 1:27:00 | 1:27:07 | |
climbed into tank D51
at the start of this battle, | 1:27:07 | 1:27:10 | |
they knew they were part
of something extraordinary. | 1:27:10 | 1:27:12 | |
But the bravery of the crews
and the sheer power of the tanks | 1:27:12 | 1:27:16 | |
came to naught. | 1:27:16 | 1:27:17 | |
The Allies were once
again driven back. | 1:27:17 | 1:27:19 | |
Cambrai, however, did mark the start
of a change in the way | 1:27:19 | 1:27:22 | |
wars were fought. | 1:27:22 | 1:27:23 | |
The tank had proved its worth. | 1:27:23 | 1:27:26 | |
A machine that is still evolving,
still a terrifying presence. | 1:27:26 | 1:27:31 | |
Its birth came at a high cost. | 1:27:32 | 1:27:37 | |
These ceremonies mark the passing
of the tank men who still lie under | 1:27:37 | 1:27:41 | |
the rolling farmland they crossed. | 1:27:41 | 1:27:52 | |
A little later we will bring you

We'll show you the pictures later.
