Hello, this is Breakfast,
with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:11 | |
Eruption imminent. | 0:00:11 | 0:00:13 | |
Bali's airport is closed leaving
thousands stranded as Mount Agung | 0:00:13 | 0:00:15 | |
becomes increasingly volatile,
with lava and molten rock | 0:00:15 | 0:00:18 | |
close to the surface. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:23 | |
The area is now on the highest state
of alert indicating a major | 0:00:23 | 0:00:27 | |
risk of eruption. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:31 | |
Hundreds of thousands have been
moved into shelters. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:35 | |
Good morning, it's Monday
the 27th of November. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:43 | |
Also this morning: | 0:00:43 | 0:00:48 | |
The five people
killed when a stolen car smashed | 0:00:48 | 0:00:50 | |
into a tree in Leeds are named. | 0:00:50 | 0:00:52 | |
Three are children,
including two brothers. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:59 | |
Desperate measures. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:00 | |
Fears that children with special
needs are being failed by the system | 0:01:00 | 0:01:03 | |
as increasing numbers of parents
are home educting their children. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:06 | |
The government unveils its strategy
for Britain's post-Brexit industrial | 0:01:06 | 0:01:08 | |
future with high-tech

In sport, England lose
the first Ashes Test. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:18 | |
Australia get the runs they needed
easily to win by ten | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
wickets in Brisbane. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:29 | |
Macro # I bet you look good on the
dancefloor, I don't know if you're | 0:01:29 | 0:01:34 | |
looking for romance or, I don't know
what you're looking for... | 0:01:34 | 0:01:39 | |
Dad dancer or disco diva? | 0:01:39 | 0:01:40 | |
We'll be asking why research
suggests that three quarters of men | 0:01:40 | 0:01:43 | |
never or hardly ever
strut their stuff. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:45 | |
And Matt has the weather. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:46 | |
Good morning. A wet and windy start
to the new week for some but it's | 0:01:46 | 0:01:50 | |
the mildest morning of the week,
cold air throughout, more details on | 0:01:50 | 0:01:56 | |
that and you're full forecast in 15
minutes. Thanks, Matt. | 0:01:56 | 0:02:00 | |
Good morning. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:01 | |
First, our main story. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:02 | |
Authorities in Bali have warned that
a volcano on the island | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
is in imminent danger
of a full-scale eruption. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:07 | |
Mount Agung has been sending clouds
of thick ash and smoke | 0:02:07 | 0:02:10 | |
thousands of feet into
the air since Saturday. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:12 | |
The airport has been closed
and locals have been ordered | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
to leave their homes. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:16 | |
Andrew Plant has the latest. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:24 | |
Bali's most sacred mountain, an
ancient volcano rumbling back to | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
life with billows of black smoke.
Mount Agung has been sleeping for | 0:02:27 | 0:02:31 | |
more than half a century, now awake
and angry. Experts believe a major | 0:02:31 | 0:02:36 | |
eruption could be about to happen.
TRANSLATION: The volcano has entered | 0:02:36 | 0:02:42 | |
the magmatic eruption phase. There
is now the possibility of a strong | 0:02:42 | 0:02:46 | |
explosive eruption.
Those living nearby were evacuated | 0:02:46 | 0:02:52 | |
in September at the first signs of
activity. Now the exclusion zone is | 0:02:52 | 0:02:58 | |
a circle 12 miles wide. The thick
ash rising thousands of metres means | 0:02:58 | 0:03:03 | |
many flights to and from this
popular tourist destination have now | 0:03:03 | 0:03:08 | |
been grounded. All the flights were
cancelled so we're just now at the | 0:03:08 | 0:03:12 | |
airport, we don't know what we're
doing and we are trying to find | 0:03:12 | 0:03:16 | |
another flight.
In Bali, no one is taking any | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
chances. More than 150,000 people
are in temporary shelters. When the | 0:03:19 | 0:03:25 | |
volcano last erupted in 1963, more
than 1000 people were killed. This | 0:03:25 | 0:03:32 | |
time the Indonesian government says
it is much better prepared. Andrew | 0:03:32 | 0:03:36 | |
Plant, BBC News. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
More on that through the programme
for you. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:41 | |
There are fears children
with special needs are being let | 0:03:41 | 0:03:44 | |
down by the education system. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:45 | |
A BBC Breakfast investigation has
revealed an increasing number | 0:03:45 | 0:03:47 | |
of children have no school place. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:49 | |
The National Association
of Special Educational Needs | 0:03:49 | 0:03:51 | |
has told this programme
it is worried that some families | 0:03:51 | 0:03:54 | |
believe home education
is their only option. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:56 | |
Our education editor
Branwen Jeffreys has more. | 0:03:56 | 0:04:04 | |
For more than a year, Emily has been
learning at home. She's been | 0:04:04 | 0:04:09 | |
diagnosed with autism and ADHD.
School felt noisy and overwhelming. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:14 | |
A bit stressful because I don't
really like, like, a lot of loud | 0:04:14 | 0:04:20 | |
noises because it just makes me
really upset and I want to learn | 0:04:20 | 0:04:25 | |
things that I'm interested in, but,
it's like I can't learn anything | 0:04:25 | 0:04:30 | |
because I don't know how to and they
don't tell me how. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:33 | |
Emily would get angry and lash out.
Now she is on medication at home. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:40 | |
Her mum, Lorna, decided to home
educate after trying free schools. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:45 | |
I couldn't cope with her going to
school and then coming back with her | 0:04:45 | 0:04:50 | |
so stressed out, so angry at me and
then not wanting to go to school the | 0:04:50 | 0:04:55 | |
next day. The meltdowns were
horrendous and I can't pick her up | 0:04:55 | 0:04:59 | |
and put her in the car and
physically take her to school. Lorna | 0:04:59 | 0:05:03 | |
isn't the only parent to reach this
decision. A growing number of | 0:05:03 | 0:05:07 | |
families with children with special
needs are deciding to home educate. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:11 | |
The fear is there doing that because
they feel let down by the school | 0:05:11 | 0:05:15 | |
system. Between 2013 and 2017 there
was a 57% increase in children with | 0:05:15 | 0:05:24 | |
special needs being home educated,
and that's just children who have a | 0:05:24 | 0:05:27 | |
statement or equivalent in England,
Wales or Northern Ireland. It's a | 0:05:27 | 0:05:33 | |
64% increase if you just look at
England. Scotland has a different | 0:05:33 | 0:05:38 | |
system, making comparisons
difficult. I think before there was | 0:05:38 | 0:05:41 | |
people genuinely making a choice
because that was the right thing for | 0:05:41 | 0:05:45 | |
them and now there are too many
families who are saying they don't | 0:05:45 | 0:05:48 | |
feel like they have either option so
they're having to resort to home | 0:05:48 | 0:05:53 | |
education, that can't be right.
Emily is learning differently with | 0:05:53 | 0:05:57 | |
some extra classes. She's happier
out of schools but misses her | 0:05:57 | 0:06:01 | |
friends. In England the government
says more special education places | 0:06:01 | 0:06:05 | |
are being created and its putting
money into the system to make it | 0:06:05 | 0:06:09 | |
work better. Branwen Jeffreys, BBC
News. | 0:06:09 | 0:06:13 | |
Throughout the week we are looking
specifically at special education | 0:06:13 | 0:06:17 | |
needs and what it's like for
children, parents, teachers. | 0:06:17 | 0:06:22 | |
And Branwen will be here to explain | 0:06:22 | 0:06:24 | |
more about this in around 20
minutes. | 0:06:24 | 0:06:27 | |
The families of five people,
including three children, | 0:06:27 | 0:06:30 | |
who died when a stolen car crashed
into a tree in Leeds have paid | 0:06:30 | 0:06:33 | |
tribute to their relatives. | 0:06:33 | 0:06:34 | |
Police are still
investigating the collision, | 0:06:34 | 0:06:36 | |
which happened on Saturday night. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:37 | |
Andy Moore reports. | 0:06:37 | 0:06:38 | |
A vigil last night by the friends
and family of those who died. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:43 | |
Some struggling to come to terms
with the sudden death | 0:06:43 | 0:06:46 | |
of so many young people. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:52 | |
The stolen Renault Clio
crashed into a tree. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:54 | |
The wreckage was soon removed. | 0:06:54 | 0:06:56 | |
People who saw it said | 0:06:56 | 0:06:57 | |
it was simply a crumpled mess,
almost unrecognisable as a car. | 0:06:57 | 0:07:03 | |
Police are still trying to establish
if all seven people involved | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
were in that vehicle. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:07 | |
All five who died have
now been named locally. | 0:07:07 | 0:07:11 | |
Brothers Ellis and Elliott
were the youngest, aged just | 0:07:11 | 0:07:13 | |
12 and 15. | 0:07:13 | 0:07:16 | |
Darnell Harte, also 15,
was the third child victim. | 0:07:16 | 0:07:19 | |
Two adults were killed. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:21 | |
Robbie Meerun, who was 24,
and Anthoney Armour. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:29 | |
He was 28, a father of two
with a third child on the way. | 0:07:29 | 0:07:32 | |
Of the two 15-year-old boys arrested
on suspicion of causing death | 0:07:32 | 0:07:35 | |
by dangerous driving,
one is understood to have been taken | 0:07:35 | 0:07:38 | |
to hospital with serious,
but not life-threatening injuries. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:41 | |
Police have described the crash
as a tragic incident. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
They say their investigations
to find out exactly | 0:07:44 | 0:07:46 | |
what happened are continuing. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:47 | |
Andy Moore, BBC News. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:53 | |
Theresa May has said the government
will fund the full cost of dealing | 0:07:53 | 0:07:57 | |
with the aftermath of the suicide
bombing at the Manchester Arena, | 0:07:57 | 0:08:00 | |
which killed 22 people in May. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:02 | |
It comes after the Mayor
of Greater Manchester, | 0:08:02 | 0:08:06 | |
Andy Burnham, said the government's
initial offer was £5 million too | 0:08:06 | 0:08:12 | |
low and estimated that £28
million would be needed. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:15 | |
High-tech industries are set
to receive millions of pounds | 0:08:15 | 0:08:18 | |
in extra funding to boost
skills and create jobs. | 0:08:18 | 0:08:20 | |
It's part of the government's
Industrial Strategy, | 0:08:20 | 0:08:22 | |
which aims to increase economic
performance post-Brexit. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:24 | |
Sean is in Coventry
for us this morning. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:34 | |
What's going on? Good morning. These
are the kind of ideas the government | 0:08:34 | 0:08:39 | |
wants to see implemented much more.
This is the Manufacturing technology | 0:08:39 | 0:08:43 | |
centre in Coventry. When you got
something like this, a bit of | 0:08:43 | 0:08:47 | |
innovation that may have gone on in
one of our universities, the idea of | 0:08:47 | 0:08:52 | |
this industrial strategy is to get
businesses to invest in that, get | 0:08:52 | 0:08:56 | |
the skills in that area, create a
hub to enable more investment from | 0:08:56 | 0:09:01 | |
around the world to make Britain a
leader in whichever area that might | 0:09:01 | 0:09:04 | |
be. There are five areas this
Industrial Strategy, this white | 0:09:04 | 0:09:13 | |
paper, set of proposals by the
government want to see implemented, | 0:09:13 | 0:09:16 | |
fight areas they focus on. Ideas,
that's a big one, the big idea | 0:09:16 | 0:09:20 | |
overall for all these different
sectors, whether it is life | 0:09:20 | 0:09:22 | |
sciences, the pharmaceutical sectors
like we are hearing the big | 0:09:22 | 0:09:25 | |
investment of today, getting those
ideas, everyone talking and getting | 0:09:25 | 0:09:29 | |
everyone going. People, of course,
with all the productivity issues we | 0:09:29 | 0:09:33 | |
have, we know we need more
investment in people, the skills and | 0:09:33 | 0:09:37 | |
education and that will come through
as well and they want those two to | 0:09:37 | 0:09:41 | |
be co-ordinating. Then you've got
infrastructure, can people travel | 0:09:41 | 0:09:46 | |
round the country getting to the
jobs they need to and can businesses | 0:09:46 | 0:09:49 | |
communicate in a good enough way?
That's another thing. Then there's | 0:09:49 | 0:09:54 | |
business environment, finance,
access to finance for businesses, | 0:09:54 | 0:09:57 | |
how often have we talked about that
one? All these things when put | 0:09:57 | 0:10:01 | |
together, the idea is Britain can
become much better. Then finally | 0:10:01 | 0:10:06 | |
places, not just London centric.
That's a big part of this as well. | 0:10:06 | 0:10:10 | |
We have the Northern Powerhouse and
we've heard about the Midland engine | 0:10:10 | 0:10:14 | |
but it's across the country these
ideas need to be in fermented and | 0:10:14 | 0:10:18 | |
the investment from MSD, a big
pharmaceutical company, the idea is | 0:10:18 | 0:10:23 | |
for them to create a research hub
around the UK were nearly 1000 jobs | 0:10:23 | 0:10:27 | |
can be lamented and that can help
boost investment in that industry. | 0:10:27 | 0:10:31 | |
Through the morning I will be
talking more about this to figure | 0:10:31 | 0:10:35 | |
out what it is these robots do and
the advantages it can have for the | 0:10:35 | 0:10:40 | |
British economy. Sean, thank you
very much indeed, speak to you | 0:10:40 | 0:10:43 | |
throughout the programme. I can't
turn around because I have hurt my | 0:10:43 | 0:10:48 | |
neck! That was really awkward for
you. You have slipped in a bad | 0:10:48 | 0:10:53 | |
place! Word! I will look around. You
look around, I'm not being rude to | 0:10:53 | 0:10:58 | |
Sean! | 0:10:58 | 0:11:00 | |
Now how about this for
a sweet annual tradition? | 0:11:00 | 0:11:07 | |
This lifesize, two-storey
gingerbread house stands | 0:11:07 | 0:11:08 | |
in the lobby of the Fairmont Hotel | 0:11:08 | 0:11:10 | |
in San Francisco in the United
States. | 0:11:10 | 0:11:12 | |
It took 375 hours to assemble
and is 25 feet high, | 0:11:12 | 0:11:15 | |
and 35 feet wide. | 0:11:15 | 0:11:16 | |
It is made from more than 10,000
pieces of gingerbread and has over | 0:11:16 | 0:11:20 | |
a ton of icing! | 0:11:20 | 0:11:23 | |
A full working clock as well. Hope
to lead that gets demolished and | 0:11:23 | 0:11:26 | |
handed out to various charities to
eat. -- hopefully. Not after that | 0:11:26 | 0:11:32 | |
amount of time! Gingerbread lasts a
long time, doesn't it? You're | 0:11:32 | 0:11:38 | |
probably right. One ton of icing? If
you had a little selection box after | 0:11:38 | 0:11:43 | |
that, surely it lasts that long,
like Christmas cake, goes on for | 0:11:43 | 0:11:47 | |
the? There's nothing worse than when
it goes a bit soft and a bit soggy | 0:11:47 | 0:11:52 | |
-- goes on for ever. Just put it in
your tea and it will be fine! So, | 0:11:52 | 0:11:58 | |
the Ashes. We knew this was going to
be happening. No one predicted | 0:11:58 | 0:12:03 | |
England would get anywhere winning
the first test? Nobody said England | 0:12:03 | 0:12:07 | |
were going to storm it from the
start, you make a good point, so no | 0:12:07 | 0:12:12 | |
surprise with this headline. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:15 | |
England lost the first
Test in Brisbane. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:17 | |
Australia got the runs they needed
easily without losing a wicket. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:21 | |
So despite some promising
moments along the way, | 0:12:21 | 0:12:23 | |
they were comfortably
beaten in the end. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:25 | |
For three days we played some
excellent cricket. Unfortunately | 0:12:25 | 0:12:28 | |
when we got into good positions we
didn't quite capitalise on that and | 0:12:28 | 0:12:32 | |
if we'd done that we would have seen
a very different scoreboard sat here | 0:12:32 | 0:12:36 | |
right now. | 0:12:36 | 0:12:39 | |
More on the cricket in the papers
shortly. | 0:12:39 | 0:12:41 | |
Manchester City's unbeaten run | 0:12:41 | 0:12:42 | |
at the top of the Premier League
continues. | 0:12:42 | 0:12:44 | |
They beat Huddersfield 2-1 to move
eight points clear of rivals | 0:12:44 | 0:12:47 | |
Manchester United at
the top of the table. | 0:12:47 | 0:12:49 | |
Celtic have won the Scottish League
Cup, their fouth domestic trophy | 0:12:49 | 0:12:53 | |
in a row after beating Motherwell
2-0 at Hampden Park. | 0:12:53 | 0:12:55 | |
And in the battle of rugby union's
Premiership top two, | 0:12:55 | 0:12:58 | |
Exeter Chiefs ran out winners. | 0:12:58 | 0:12:59 | |
The league leaders beat
their nearest rivals Saracens | 0:12:59 | 0:13:02 | |
by just two points yesterday. | 0:13:02 | 0:13:04 | |
Please don't laugh at my voice!
We're not laughing! It's all gone a | 0:13:04 | 0:13:09 | |
bit gravel like? It has, I will sort
it! | 0:13:09 | 0:13:15 | |
Let's catch up on the weather with
Matt. | 0:13:15 | 0:13:18 | |
Good morning | 0:13:18 | 0:13:19 | |
Good morning from on top of the roof
at broadcasting house in London, the | 0:13:19 | 0:13:23 | |
likes of Regent Street twinkling
behind and the ground is a bit damp. | 0:13:23 | 0:13:27 | |
A bit of rain here and we'll see
that through this morning in | 0:13:27 | 0:13:30 | |
southern areas, but looking at the
week, get ready, if you got a | 0:13:30 | 0:13:34 | |
bargain this weekend with a warm
jacket or a scarf, you will need it, | 0:13:34 | 0:13:39 | |
a cold week. A mixture of sunny
spells and showers with the showers | 0:13:39 | 0:13:43 | |
turning wintry and we will see them
today in the north of Scotland. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:48 | |
Let's start in the south, it is the
mildest morning of the week for | 0:13:48 | 0:13:52 | |
many. Temperatures to start the
morning without breaks of rain in | 0:13:52 | 0:13:56 | |
southern counties around 11 or 12,
that's the highest they will get all | 0:13:56 | 0:14:00 | |
day and a strong wind blowing across
the south through the morning before | 0:14:00 | 0:14:03 | |
the rain eventually clears. North of
mid Wales, the Midlands, sunny | 0:14:03 | 0:14:08 | |
spells and a scattering of showers
for the morning rush-hour. Some | 0:14:08 | 0:14:12 | |
showers will be a bit heavy. Over
the tops of the hills in Northern | 0:14:12 | 0:14:19 | |
Ireland, Comrie and Scotland, a
mixture of sleet and snow and in the | 0:14:19 | 0:14:23 | |
far north-east of Scotland, a windy
start to Monday, with the winds | 0:14:23 | 0:14:26 | |
gusting to 50 or 60 mph -- Cumbria.
Windy through the day in the | 0:14:26 | 0:14:30 | |
north-east of Scotland. Still breezy
in the English Channel, the rain | 0:14:30 | 0:14:33 | |
spreads to the Channel Islands,
that's where it sits in the | 0:14:33 | 0:14:36 | |
afternoon. Southern counties will
brighten up compare to this morning | 0:14:36 | 0:14:40 | |
but temperatures will be dropping,
showers possible anywhere -- | 0:14:40 | 0:14:43 | |
compared to. Some rumbles of
thunder, especially around the | 0:14:43 | 0:14:48 | |
coast, and wintry over high ground
in the north. Temperatures dropping | 0:14:48 | 0:14:51 | |
through the day, single figures in
the afternoon, colder in the | 0:14:51 | 0:14:55 | |
north-east given the strength of the
wind. Through the night the wind | 0:14:55 | 0:14:59 | |
will remain strong nationwide but we
will see the showers becoming less | 0:14:59 | 0:15:02 | |
numerous. A wet evening rush-hour in
the south-west but elsewhere the | 0:15:02 | 0:15:06 | |
showers confined to northern and
western coasts in particular, clear | 0:15:06 | 0:15:10 | |
skies inland. The breeze keeping
temperatures up just about but a | 0:15:10 | 0:15:14 | |
cold start tomorrow morning. Some
frost around here and there and even | 0:15:14 | 0:15:19 | |
a bit of ice over fireground,
showers continuing through the | 0:15:19 | 0:15:22 | |
night. On Tuesday, fewer showers
around, better chance of sunshine. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:28 | |
Sunshine at its best in south-west
Scotland and north-west England, the | 0:15:28 | 0:15:31 | |
Midlands and south-west England. A
few showers tomorrow in the west but | 0:15:31 | 0:15:35 | |
more so in eastern parts of England
and eastern Scotland, they will turn | 0:15:35 | 0:15:40 | |
wintry. A strong wind and it will
make it feel cold, temperatures made | 0:15:40 | 0:15:44 | |
to feel more like freezing in some
parts of eastern Scotland and | 0:15:44 | 0:15:48 | |
eastern England with the strong
wind. It will remain windy and cold | 0:15:48 | 0:15:52 | |
into Wednesday with temperatures
dropping day on day through the | 0:15:52 | 0:15:55 | |
week. Showers most likely in eastern
areas, one or two in the west, those | 0:15:55 | 0:16:00 | |
showers sleet and snow at times in
eastern parts and they will spread | 0:16:00 | 0:16:04 | |
inland to many Eastern counties of
England and Scotland through the | 0:16:04 | 0:16:07 | |
day. Temperatures what you see on
the chart, it will feel colder in | 0:16:07 | 0:16:11 | |
the wind. If anything feeling colder
on Thursday, Thursday probably the | 0:16:11 | 0:16:16 | |
coldest day of the week with
temperatures only around three or | 0:16:16 | 0:16:22 | |
four for many. Maybe the winter
jacket you got at the weekend will | 0:16:22 | 0:16:26 | |
prove to be a bargain. | 0:16:26 | 0:16:30 | |
That is a very important warning.
Set to get cold throughout the week. | 0:16:30 | 0:16:36 | |
The big freeze is the last month.
Britain facing a new weather alert | 0:16:36 | 0:16:40 | |
in the run-up to Christmas and
Prince Harry and Meghan | 0:16:40 | 0:16:44 | |
Markle on the front page, many
papers asking is tomorrow going to | 0:16:44 | 0:16:48 | |
be the day when he officially
announces their engagement, because | 0:16:48 | 0:16:51 | |
his brother was engaged on Tuesday.
It is magical Tuesday, everyone, if | 0:16:51 | 0:16:58 | |
it happens. If I was them, I would
put it off. The Telegraph are | 0:16:58 | 0:17:04 | |
talking about the Armed Forces
possibly not receiving any extra | 0:17:04 | 0:17:08 | |
funding as a result of a major
national security review. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:11 | |
Administrative defence has been told
that. Sailors have taken over from | 0:17:11 | 0:17:16 | |
the usual guardsman at Buckingham
Palace as the Royal Navy performs | 0:17:16 | 0:17:19 | |
the changing of the guard for the
first time stop is the year of the | 0:17:19 | 0:17:23 | |
navy. The front page of the Guardian
also have a seachange at the Queen's | 0:17:23 | 0:17:29 | |
card. Safety fears as junior doctors
are left to run A&E. Jonny Bairstow | 0:17:29 | 0:17:37 | |
on the front page, which I am sure
Sally will talk about later on. As | 0:17:37 | 0:17:41 | |
well as the cricket in Australia,
there has been a bit of argy-bargy, | 0:17:41 | 0:17:47 | |
as well. The Times reports that
thousands of children have been used | 0:17:47 | 0:17:52 | |
by criminal gangs as drug runners in
a criminal scandal with echoes of | 0:17:52 | 0:17:57 | |
Rotherham and Rochdale. Calls for
the law to be changed and fault | 0:17:57 | 0:18:04 | |
-based divorce. We will talk about
the flu jab for children. It is not | 0:18:04 | 0:18:09 | |
a jab, though. No, the nasal spray,
that thing. Looking at the front | 0:18:09 | 0:18:15 | |
page of the Daily Mirror, Russia's
lies over flu jabs in Britain. | 0:18:15 | 0:18:23 | |
Russia cyber units are spreading
false information about flu and | 0:18:23 | 0:18:27 | |
measles in the UK. The Daily Mail
talking about ambulance crews being | 0:18:27 | 0:18:36 | |
sent on 999 calls, sending cut-price
tech regions instead of paramedics, | 0:18:36 | 0:18:41 | |
according to an investigation they
have done. You mentioned the Ashes, | 0:18:41 | 0:18:45 | |
and we mentioned Jonny Bairstow. It
appears that around a month ago, in | 0:18:45 | 0:18:50 | |
a nightclub, there was a little bit
of an altercation. Shall we re-enact | 0:18:50 | 0:18:54 | |
it? We are touching. Was that it? No
malice? No malice whatsoever. Jonny | 0:18:54 | 0:19:03 | |
Bairstow touched heads with a
team-mate, in a friendly way like we | 0:19:03 | 0:19:07 | |
did. To be honest with you, that was
unexpected. It came out of nowhere. | 0:19:07 | 0:19:14 | |
Thing I want to talk to you about,
is the bar where it happened, a | 0:19:14 | 0:19:23 | |
venue previously called Club
Bayview, and it earned the nickname | 0:19:23 | 0:19:37 | |
Bayspew among patrons. Isn't it
funny that it occurred a month ago | 0:19:37 | 0:19:41 | |
and it is being reported now. Got
any spare antifreeze? This is a | 0:19:41 | 0:19:48 | |
photographer who took a picture in
Churchill, in Canada, the Polar Bear | 0:19:48 | 0:19:52 | |
poking out the window, and Debbie
McGee, the secret behind the splits. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:59 | |
59 and then be as anything. -- bendy
as anything. Yoga is what is | 0:19:59 | 0:20:09 | |
inspiring flexibility. | 0:20:09 | 0:20:10 | |
We often talk about endangered
species on this programme, | 0:20:10 | 0:20:13 | |
but here is one that hasn't yet been
filmed by Sir David Attenborough - | 0:20:13 | 0:20:17 | |
the dancing British male. | 0:20:17 | 0:20:18 | |
A survey by BBC 5 Live has found
more than three quarters of men | 0:20:18 | 0:20:22 | |
either never dance at all
or only do so rarely. | 0:20:22 | 0:20:24 | |
Most of them say they
are too embarrassed. | 0:20:24 | 0:20:26 | |
So, in a bid to reverse
this worrying trend, | 0:20:26 | 0:20:29 | |
we dug through the archives and went
out to find some blokes | 0:20:29 | 0:20:32 | |
who still like to boogie. | 0:20:32 | 0:20:34 | |
If any teenagers are watching,
we should warn you that this film | 0:20:34 | 0:20:37 | |
does contain some images
of dad-dancing which you may find | 0:20:37 | 0:20:39 | |
disturbing. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:43 | |
# I bet that you look good on the
dance floor... Can't dance? No. No, | 0:20:49 | 0:21:03 | |
there you go. I read some surveys
that I am allowed to dad-dance, and | 0:21:03 | 0:21:11 | |
I do at every opportunity. It has to
be done. I wouldn't be a dad if I | 0:21:11 | 0:21:23 | |
wasn't dancing. I see a lot of
people doing it. I like it. being | 0:21:23 | 0:21:33 | |
known to move in a dancing sort of
fashion. Very pretty. What do you | 0:21:33 | 0:21:40 | |
think? Bad. I'm sexy and I know it. | 0:21:40 | 0:21:50 | |
I am a big fan of dad-dancing. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:56 | |
We would love to see
your dad-dancing videos. | 0:21:56 | 0:21:58 | |
You can e-mail us at
| 0:21:58 | 0:21:59 | |
or tweet them using
the hashtag #BBCBreakfast. | 0:21:59 | 0:22:01 | |
I am looking forward to seeing some
of those later on. | 0:22:01 | 0:22:04 | |
We are taking some time this
week to shine a light | 0:22:04 | 0:22:07 | |
on what it is like to live
with a special educational need. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:11 | |
Today, we have been hearing how
an increasing number of children | 0:22:11 | 0:22:14 | |
with complex needs are
being educated at home. | 0:22:14 | 0:22:16 | |
A BBC Breakfast investigation has
revealed a 133% rise in the number | 0:22:16 | 0:22:19 | |
of pupils without a school
place since 2013. | 0:22:19 | 0:22:21 | |
To tell us more, we are joined
by our education editor Branwen | 0:22:21 | 0:22:24 | |
Jeffreys. | 0:22:24 | 0:22:25 | |
Branwen, what can you tell us
about these figures? | 0:22:25 | 0:22:29 | |
You hear them and you think that is
a massive increase. It really is, | 0:22:29 | 0:22:34 | |
and quite striking compared to the
number of special needs children, | 0:22:34 | 0:22:38 | |
which although it has been going up
a little bit, hasn't been going up | 0:22:38 | 0:22:42 | |
as fast as these figures. When you
look at what we found, we found that | 0:22:42 | 0:22:46 | |
around 1600 children with a
statement or one of the new care | 0:22:46 | 0:22:51 | |
plans were being home educated.
Around 1000 have no school place | 0:22:51 | 0:22:56 | |
whatsoever and the average waiting
time for families for a school place | 0:22:56 | 0:22:59 | |
was five months. That is across
Northern Ireland, England and Wales. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:04 | |
In Scotland it is slightly different
so we couldn't make the same | 0:23:04 | 0:23:08 | |
comparison. It is worth noting this
is the tip of the iceberg. These are | 0:23:08 | 0:23:12 | |
the children who have a statement or
a care plan, and they have the most | 0:23:12 | 0:23:16 | |
severe needs. There will be other
families in a similar situation who | 0:23:16 | 0:23:20 | |
haven't had the needs of their
children recognised. I am sure many | 0:23:20 | 0:23:23 | |
of our viewers will be able to
answer this question, but what is | 0:23:23 | 0:23:27 | |
causing the rise in numbers? We no
school budgets are under pressure, | 0:23:27 | 0:23:31 | |
and if you have a child with a care
plan in your school in England, you | 0:23:31 | 0:23:35 | |
have to find the first £6,000 to
give them the extra help they need | 0:23:35 | 0:23:39 | |
out of their own school budget if
you are a head teacher. So that is | 0:23:39 | 0:23:44 | |
actually costing them money, it is
only after that you can get some top | 0:23:44 | 0:23:48 | |
up funding. That is one thing,
reducing the support. Parents are | 0:23:48 | 0:23:51 | |
then pulling their children out of
schools because of that. But schools | 0:23:51 | 0:23:55 | |
are measured by all kinds of
accountability test. Test results, | 0:23:55 | 0:23:59 | |
league tables, and special needs
children do not really fit into the | 0:23:59 | 0:24:05 | |
world of league tables, test results
and exam results. And I know you | 0:24:05 | 0:24:09 | |
have been having a really good look
at what impact it has been having on | 0:24:09 | 0:24:13 | |
children and families, as well. For
some families it will be a choice to | 0:24:13 | 0:24:18 | |
home educate at some families feel
so badly let down by the system, and | 0:24:18 | 0:24:22 | |
they feel as though they have no
choice, it was their child has been | 0:24:22 | 0:24:27 | |
so miserable, so unsupported in
school, they must take them out and | 0:24:27 | 0:24:31 | |
teach them at home. And we will be
looking at this subject in detail | 0:24:31 | 0:24:35 | |
throughout the week. | 0:24:35 | 0:24:36 | |
Later in the hour,
we will have a report | 0:24:36 | 0:24:38 | |
from Jayne McCubbin,
who has been given rare access | 0:24:38 | 0:24:41 | |
inside a special school
in Manchester, to see how | 0:24:41 | 0:24:43 | |
they are coping with increasing
demand on the system. | 0:24:43 | 0:24:46 | |
If you want to get in contact

You are watching Breakfast. | 0:25:03 | 0:25:06 | |
Still to come this morning: Have
you been struck down | 0:25:06 | 0:25:08 | |
by flu this winter? | 0:25:08 | 0:25:10 | |
Well, doctors say children
are super-spreaders of the disease, | 0:25:10 | 0:25:12 | |
and they are urging parents
to get their little ones vaccinated. | 0:25:12 | 0:25:15 | |
We will get more on this shortly. | 0:25:15 | 0:25:27 | |
Do you | 0:25:27 | 0:28:45 | |
to get much colder as we had through | 0:25:27 | 0:28:45 | |
to get much colder as we had through
this week. There is dry weather | 0:28:45 | 0:28:46 | |
around, though. Still quite easy,
with the risk of a shower. -- quite | 0:28:46 | 0:28:50 | |
breezy. | 0:28:50 | 0:28:50 | |
That's all for now, but we will be
back in half an hour. | 0:28:50 | 0:28:53 | |
There is more on our website
at the usual address. | 0:28:53 | 0:28:56 | |
For now, it is back
to Dan and Louise. | 0:28:56 | 0:28:59 | |
Goodbye. | 0:28:59 | 0:29:00 | |
Hello, this is Breakfast
with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin. | 0:29:00 | 0:29:03 | |
We'll bring you all the latest news
and sport in a moment, | 0:29:03 | 0:29:06 | |
but also on Breakfast this morning: | 0:29:06 | 0:29:08 | |
How a mince pie could
help tackle loneliness. | 0:29:08 | 0:29:10 | |
We'll find out about a new campaign
from the Jo Cox Foundation. | 0:29:10 | 0:29:13 | |
These men aren't afraid to dance,
but new research suggests | 0:29:13 | 0:29:16 | |
more than three quarters of men are. | 0:29:16 | 0:29:19 | |
So we'll be celebrating
the joy of dad-dancing. | 0:29:19 | 0:29:26 | |
Hello, mother, how are you? Oh, you
know, not so bad. Great, well, got | 0:29:26 | 0:29:33 | |
to go. | 0:29:33 | 0:29:34 | |
And he's introduced us to gangsta
grannies and awful aunties, | 0:29:34 | 0:29:36 | |
now it's the turn of Bad Dad. | 0:29:36 | 0:29:38 | |
We'll be joined by comedian
and children's author | 0:29:38 | 0:29:40 | |
David Walliams. | 0:29:40 | 0:29:47 | |
Here's a summary of this morning's
main stories from BBC News: | 0:29:47 | 0:29:50 | |
Authorities in Bali have warned that
a volcano on the island | 0:29:50 | 0:29:53 | |
is in imminent danger
of a full-scale eruption. | 0:29:53 | 0:29:55 | |
Mount Agung has been
sending clouds of thick ash | 0:29:55 | 0:29:58 | |
and smoke thousands of feet
into the air since Saturday. | 0:29:58 | 0:30:00 | |
The airport has been closed
and locals have been ordered | 0:30:00 | 0:30:03 | |
to leave their homes. | 0:30:03 | 0:30:09 | |
These are pictures live coming to us
from Bali of the volcano. As you can | 0:30:09 | 0:30:16 | |
see, there are more ash clouds than
there has been in the last 24 hours, | 0:30:16 | 0:30:20 | |
it's quite difficult to see it now
but we'll keep you right up to date. | 0:30:20 | 0:30:32 | |
There are fears children
with special needs are being let | 0:30:32 | 0:30:35 | |
down by the education system. | 0:30:35 | 0:30:36 | |
A BBC Breakfast investigation has
revealed an increasing number | 0:30:36 | 0:30:39 | |
of children have no school place. | 0:30:39 | 0:30:43 | |
I think before there was people
genuinely making a choice | 0:30:43 | 0:30:46 | |
because that was the right thing
for them and now there are too many | 0:30:46 | 0:30:50 | |
families who are saying they don't
feel like they have either option | 0:30:50 | 0:30:53 | |
so they're having to resort to home
education, that can't be right. | 0:30:53 | 0:31:00 | |
The families of five people,
including three children, | 0:31:00 | 0:31:02 | |
who died when a stolen car crashed
into a tree in Leeds have paid | 0:31:02 | 0:31:06 | |
tribute to their relatives. | 0:31:06 | 0:31:07 | |
Our reporter is in Leeds where the
vigil took place last night. Police | 0:31:07 | 0:31:10 | |
are still investigating the
collision but have they released any | 0:31:10 | 0:31:14 | |
more information about what
happened? Yes, good morning. Not for | 0:31:14 | 0:31:20 | |
the moment but there is still a
police presence here and you could | 0:31:20 | 0:31:23 | |
see where this incident happened on
Saturday night. This is stone to | 0:31:23 | 0:31:28 | |
Road, about three miles north of
Leeds city centre, it was cordoned | 0:31:28 | 0:31:32 | |
off for most of yesterday and this
is where the stolen Renault Clio | 0:31:32 | 0:31:36 | |
collided with the tree. You can see
last night local people have been | 0:31:36 | 0:31:41 | |
laying floral tributes. The
investigation is still ongoing into | 0:31:41 | 0:31:45 | |
what happened. Emergency services
were called just before 10pm to what | 0:31:45 | 0:31:48 | |
they say was a scene of complete
carnage. Officers on the scene say | 0:31:48 | 0:31:53 | |
they were confronted by a very
difficult situation, five people | 0:31:53 | 0:31:57 | |
lost their lives, including three
children, the youngest just 12 years | 0:31:57 | 0:32:05 | |
old. To 15-year-old boys and two men
aged 24 and 28 were killed. The | 0:32:05 | 0:32:09 | |
victims named locally as 15-year-old
Daniel Hart, Robbie Meerun, 24, and | 0:32:09 | 0:32:16 | |
24-year-old Anthony Aamer -- 28. The
exact circumstances are being pieced | 0:32:16 | 0:32:22 | |
together. Meanwhile 215 -year-olds
are in custody on suspicion of | 0:32:22 | 0:32:28 | |
causing death by dangerous driving.
Thank you very much. | 0:32:28 | 0:32:33 | |
Theresa May has said the government
will fund the full cost of dealing | 0:32:33 | 0:32:37 | |
with the aftermath of the suicide
bombing at the Manchester Arena, | 0:32:37 | 0:32:40 | |
which killed 22 people in May. | 0:32:40 | 0:32:41 | |
It comes after the Mayor
of Greater Manchester, | 0:32:41 | 0:32:43 | |
Andy Burnham, said the government's
initial offer was £5 million too | 0:32:43 | 0:32:46 | |
low and estimated that £28
million would be needed. | 0:32:46 | 0:32:58 | |
High-tech industries will receive
millions of pounds of extra funding | 0:32:58 | 0:33:02 | |
to boost skills and promote jobs as
part of the government strategy to | 0:33:02 | 0:33:06 | |
boost economic performance
post-Brexit. We will be | 0:33:06 | 0:33:17 | |
investigating this more through the
morning. Sean is in Coventry. | 0:33:17 | 0:33:23 | |
A second inquest into the death of
toddler Poppi Worthington will begin | 0:33:23 | 0:33:27 | |
after the first hearing more
shrouded in secrecy and lasted seven | 0:33:27 | 0:33:31 | |
minutes. The 13 -month-old was found
with serious injuries at her home in | 0:33:31 | 0:33:35 | |
Cumbria in December 2012. Last year
a family judge ruled she had been | 0:33:35 | 0:33:40 | |
sexually assaulted by her father,
who always denied any wrongdoing. No | 0:33:40 | 0:33:44 | |
one has ever been charged over her
death. | 0:33:44 | 0:33:51 | |
Councils in England generated
£819 million in profit | 0:33:51 | 0:33:53 | |
from parking fees and fines
during the last financial year, | 0:33:53 | 0:33:56 | |
that's 10% higher than
in the previous one. | 0:33:56 | 0:33:58 | |
Figures obtained by the RAC
Foundation showed four | 0:33:58 | 0:34:00 | |
of the five
councils with the largest | 0:34:00 | 0:34:02 | |
surplus were in London. | 0:34:02 | 0:34:03 | |
The Local Government Association
said income from parking went | 0:34:03 | 0:34:06 | |
towards essential transport
projects and repairs. | 0:34:06 | 0:34:14 | |
I did some street parking in London
a few years ago and I'm still | 0:34:14 | 0:34:19 | |
recovering, £38 for about seven
hours. Chelsea! That will do it. A | 0:34:19 | 0:34:24 | |
personal issue that I shouldn't have
brought up on the programme. | 0:34:24 | 0:34:28 | |
Car thieves have come up with a new
way of stealing cars in less than a | 0:34:28 | 0:34:33 | |
minute without using keys. This from
West Midlands police shows us relay | 0:34:33 | 0:34:37 | |
crime. They use boxes to receive a
signal that tricks the system in the | 0:34:37 | 0:34:42 | |
car to thinking the key has been
used. | 0:34:42 | 0:34:51 | |
Quite high-tech, isn't it? Snide.
Why are we sharing this information? | 0:34:51 | 0:34:56 | |
Don't try that at home by the way!
You didn't see that, folks! | 0:34:56 | 0:35:03 | |
Good morning. Not great news from
Australia on various levels. So far | 0:35:03 | 0:35:09 | |
the Aussies are winning the mind
games, aren't they? The time. -- big | 0:35:09 | 0:35:14 | |
time. | 0:35:14 | 0:35:16 | |
England lost the first
Test in Brisbane. | 0:35:16 | 0:35:21 | |
Australia got the runs they needed
easily without losing a wicket. | 0:35:21 | 0:35:23 | |
So despite some promising moments
along the way they were comfortably | 0:35:23 | 0:35:26 | |
beaten in the end. | 0:35:26 | 0:35:27 | |
They go 1-0 down in the five match
series. | 0:35:27 | 0:35:31 | |
I think the most important thing is
we stay strong and tight as a group | 0:35:31 | 0:35:35 | |
of players and as a squad and we
continue to keep doing the hard work | 0:35:35 | 0:35:40 | |
we have done throughout the whole
trip. For three days we played some | 0:35:40 | 0:35:44 | |
excellent cricket. | 0:35:44 | 0:35:45 | |
Unfortunately when we got into good
positions we didn't quite capitalise | 0:35:45 | 0:35:48 | |
on that and if we'd done
that we would have seen a very | 0:35:48 | 0:35:51 | |
different scoreboard
sat here right now. | 0:35:51 | 0:35:54 | |
I think this team has the potential
to do some really good things and | 0:35:54 | 0:35:59 | |
we'll have to continue to play
really good cricket. Adelaide wicket | 0:35:59 | 0:36:02 | |
might bring some of their bowlers
into the game a little bit but | 0:36:02 | 0:36:06 | |
having said that, it's probably one
of the quickest wickets in the | 0:36:06 | 0:36:09 | |
country. | 0:36:09 | 0:36:12 | |
There has already been a bit of
bother with Cameron Bancroft and | 0:36:12 | 0:36:19 | |
Johnathan Bairstow. There were
accusations Bairstow head-butted | 0:36:19 | 0:36:22 | |
Cameron Bancroft on a night out in
Perth before the tour. Bairstow said | 0:36:22 | 0:36:29 | |
the incident had been blown out of
all proportion. | 0:36:29 | 0:36:32 | |
We were just in the bar having a
good laugh and a good evening out. | 0:36:32 | 0:36:36 | |
It was very enjoyable. Cameron and I
enjoyed the evening and continue to | 0:36:36 | 0:36:42 | |
do so. No intent or malice about
anything during the evening. | 0:36:42 | 0:36:49 | |
He connected with my head and, you
know, with a force that would make | 0:36:49 | 0:36:56 | |
me think, like, Wells, that's a bit
weird. And, yeah, that | 0:36:56 | 0:37:01 | |
was it. | 0:37:01 | 0:37:06 | |
Manchester City manager
Pep Guardiola has prasied his | 0:37:06 | 0:37:08 | |
players as they came from behind
against Huddersfield to continue | 0:37:08 | 0:37:11 | |
thier their unbeaten run at the top
of the Premier League. | 0:37:11 | 0:37:14 | |
Raheem Sterling was the match winner
for City with just six | 0:37:14 | 0:37:17 | |
minutes left in the game. | 0:37:17 | 0:37:18 | |
Their lead at the top of the table
now eight points over rivals | 0:37:18 | 0:37:22 | |
Manchester United. | 0:37:22 | 0:37:23 | |
Impossible to win every game easy
because the Premier League is so | 0:37:23 | 0:37:26 | |
tough. Today may be one of the worst
times how much of a Premier League | 0:37:26 | 0:37:32 | |
game it was today. The guys competed
amazingly so that's why we won and | 0:37:32 | 0:37:37 | |
we're still there. | 0:37:37 | 0:37:39 | |
Everton are two points off
the Premier League relegation zone | 0:37:39 | 0:37:42 | |
after suffering another heavy defeat
under caretaker manager | 0:37:42 | 0:37:44 | |
David Unsworth, they lost 4-1
to Southampton yesterday. | 0:37:44 | 0:37:52 | |
Charlie Austin scored two
second-half headers before | 0:37:52 | 0:37:53 | |
Steven Davis beat Jordan Pickford
from the edge of the box to wrap | 0:37:53 | 0:37:57 | |
up the victory. | 0:37:57 | 0:37:58 | |
Everton have won just once in seven
games under Unsworth. | 0:37:58 | 0:38:01 | |
It's killing me. It's really tough.
But the situation's been tough for a | 0:38:01 | 0:38:09 | |
while so I have to take
responsibility and I will, I'll | 0:38:09 | 0:38:12 | |
stand here and take responsibility
as manager, but we've all got to | 0:38:12 | 0:38:17 | |
take our responsibility as well.
It's tough at the moment, we're in a | 0:38:17 | 0:38:21 | |
tough place. Things have to change
quickly. | 0:38:21 | 0:38:28 | |
Arsenal move up to fourth
in the table after a controversial | 0:38:28 | 0:38:31 | |
injury-time penalty
against Burnley at Turf Moor. | 0:38:31 | 0:38:32 | |
Alexis Sanchez scored the goal
that moves them ahead | 0:38:32 | 0:38:35 | |
of North London rivals Tottenham. | 0:38:35 | 0:38:36 | |
There is a lot of me
inside that is raging, a lot. | 0:38:36 | 0:38:40 | |
But it's OK, I will
still look like this. | 0:38:40 | 0:38:42 | |
My view is that it is highly
unlikely that anything | 0:38:42 | 0:38:45 | |
other than a penalty
was going to get given. | 0:38:45 | 0:38:47 | |
Celtic have won their fourth
domestic trophy in a row | 0:38:47 | 0:38:50 | |
as they retained the Scottish League
Cup this afternoon beating | 0:38:50 | 0:38:53 | |
Motherwell 2-1. | 0:38:53 | 0:38:53 | |
James Forrest scored the first
for Celtic just after the break | 0:38:53 | 0:38:56 | |
and they doubled their lead
with a controversial penalty that | 0:38:56 | 0:38:59 | |
saw Motherwell defender
Cedric Kipre sent off. | 0:38:59 | 0:39:01 | |
Celtic go 65 domestic
games now without defeat. | 0:39:01 | 0:39:06 | |
Hibernian completed the cup double
for the second year running | 0:39:06 | 0:39:09 | |
with a 3-0 victory over Glasgow City
in the Women's Scottish Cup final. | 0:39:09 | 0:39:13 | |
Reigning champions Exeter Chiefs
are five points clear at the top | 0:39:13 | 0:39:16 | |
of the Premiership after beating
second place Saracens | 0:39:16 | 0:39:18 | |
by just two points yesterday. | 0:39:18 | 0:39:19 | |
The Chiefs scored two tries
in the second half to come | 0:39:19 | 0:39:22 | |
from behind against Sarries. | 0:39:22 | 0:39:23 | |
Both teams were missing a number
of players to international duty. | 0:39:23 | 0:39:26 | |
Elsewhere Wasps beat London Irish. | 0:39:26 | 0:39:38 | |
England boss Eddie Jones has been
named coach of the year | 0:39:38 | 0:39:41 | |
at the World Rugby awards in Monaco. | 0:39:41 | 0:39:43 | |
The Australian guided England
to a second successive 6 Nations | 0:39:43 | 0:39:46 | |
title in 2017, before an unbeaten
summer tour of Argentina and three | 0:39:46 | 0:39:49 | |
wins out of three this autumn. | 0:39:49 | 0:39:51 | |
Jones is the first England head
coach since Clive Woodward in 2003 | 0:39:51 | 0:39:54 | |
to win the accolade. | 0:39:54 | 0:39:55 | |
Valtteri Bottas took the honours
ahead of Mercedes team-mate | 0:39:55 | 0:39:58 | |
Lewis Hamilton in the final race | 0:39:58 | 0:39:59 | |
of the Formula 1 season in Abu
Dhabi. | 0:39:59 | 0:40:01 | |
The Finn completed
the hat-trick of pole position, | 0:40:01 | 0:40:04 | |
fastest lap and race win
as he claimed his third victory | 0:40:04 | 0:40:07 | |
of the year. | 0:40:07 | 0:40:07 | |
Sebastian Vettel finished third
which was enough to secure | 0:40:07 | 0:40:10 | |
the German the runners up spot
in the drivers' Championship, | 0:40:10 | 0:40:13 | |
which Hamilton had already won. | 0:40:13 | 0:40:17 | |
In netball, England have
won the second match | 0:40:17 | 0:40:19 | |
of the Vitality Netball
International Series against Malawi. | 0:40:19 | 0:40:21 | |
The Roses won 61-53
at the Copper Box Arena in London. | 0:40:21 | 0:40:24 | |
They go 2-0 up in the
three match series. | 0:40:24 | 0:40:30 | |
Great to see the Copper Box being
used again, some brilliant memories | 0:40:30 | 0:40:35 | |
of the Olympics of course. Proper
venue! Proper venue! Thanks very | 0:40:35 | 0:40:42 | |
much, see you later. | 0:40:42 | 0:40:44 | |
For many older people,
spending some quality time | 0:40:44 | 0:40:47 | |
with grand-children or other young
relatives is one of the greatest | 0:40:47 | 0:40:49 | |
pleasures of the festive period. | 0:40:49 | 0:40:51 | |
But NHS chiefs are warning that
Christmas cuddles could be | 0:40:51 | 0:40:53 | |
a health hazard if the child
is among the four in five who have | 0:40:53 | 0:40:57 | |
not been vaccinated against flu. | 0:40:57 | 0:40:59 | |
Professor Keith Willett,
NHS England's medical director | 0:40:59 | 0:41:01 | |
for acute care, has described
children as super-spreaders. | 0:41:01 | 0:41:03 | |
We can speak to him now. | 0:41:03 | 0:41:06 | |
Good morning. Good morning. Super
spreader, what does it mean? Young | 0:41:06 | 0:41:14 | |
children are very important
influence, they catch it very easily | 0:41:14 | 0:41:18 | |
and they also spread it very easily
-- in flu. The good news is the | 0:41:18 | 0:41:23 | |
nasal spray vaccine we have four
children now, which we're making | 0:41:23 | 0:41:27 | |
available free for every child from
two to nine, is not only highly | 0:41:27 | 0:41:31 | |
effective at stopping them getting
the flu but the evidence is it's one | 0:41:31 | 0:41:35 | |
of the best ways of stopping older
people, pregnant family members, | 0:41:35 | 0:41:40 | |
perhaps grandparents or older family
members with long-term conditions | 0:41:40 | 0:41:44 | |
from catching flu themselves. For
them it can be very serious and | 0:41:44 | 0:41:48 | |
sadly occasionally fatal. Which is a
really stark message actually. What | 0:41:48 | 0:41:52 | |
are the figures, how many are
getting this vaccine? We make 21 | 0:41:52 | 0:41:59 | |
million flu vaccinations available
each year, that's more than a third | 0:41:59 | 0:42:02 | |
of the whole population of England.
That's all those groups I've talked | 0:42:02 | 0:42:06 | |
about. And we need a certain level
of take-up for it to be effective. | 0:42:06 | 0:42:11 | |
At the moment we've only got about
one in 62 to three -year-olds being | 0:42:11 | 0:42:16 | |
vaccinated with the nasal spray, and
we've only got 30% of children who | 0:42:16 | 0:42:21 | |
are in the school age, from
reception to year for. The messages | 0:42:21 | 0:42:25 | |
to mum and dad is quite simple, get
your two and three -year-olds booked | 0:42:25 | 0:42:29 | |
into the GPs for their nasal spray,
and likewise make sure you've given | 0:42:29 | 0:42:34 | |
consent so they can have the nasal
spray at school. That way you're | 0:42:34 | 0:42:38 | |
looking after the whole family,
which is really important over this | 0:42:38 | 0:42:42 | |
festive period. And it's free for
children at those ages? Absolutely. | 0:42:42 | 0:42:47 | |
Free for those and free for everyone
over 65, free fall pregnant women | 0:42:47 | 0:42:52 | |
and those who have long-term
conditions or those who care for | 0:42:52 | 0:42:56 | |
them and this year it's also free
for care workers in residential | 0:42:56 | 0:43:00 | |
homes and those who look after
people in their own homes. Why isn't | 0:43:00 | 0:43:06 | |
it working, why are parents not
taking their children to get | 0:43:06 | 0:43:09 | |
vaccinated? It's not going to hurt
because it's a nasal spray, isn't it | 0:43:09 | 0:43:13 | |
crazy so why is it? Yes, it's a lack
of awareness and I'm delighted to | 0:43:13 | 0:43:18 | |
make those mums and dads were this
morning. For the two and three | 0:43:18 | 0:43:22 | |
-year-olds you have to contact your
GP and book in and make sure they | 0:43:22 | 0:43:26 | |
get the spray from the practice
nurse, and for the schoolchildren, | 0:43:26 | 0:43:29 | |
make sure you're aware of the
programme. If you are asked to give | 0:43:29 | 0:43:33 | |
consent then do so and contact the
school if you think you might not | 0:43:33 | 0:43:37 | |
have had the note because perhaps
the child hasn't given it to you. | 0:43:37 | 0:43:41 | |
That the Lego point, checked in
their schoolbags. You are director | 0:43:41 | 0:43:46 | |
for acute care at NHS England. --
that's a good point. -- check in | 0:43:46 | 0:43:52 | |
their schoolbags. Are you ready for
this winter? We are the re- prepared | 0:43:52 | 0:43:56 | |
this year, more so than ever before,
we have more beds available -- we | 0:43:56 | 0:44:01 | |
are very prepared. From a flu point
of view the Norman Jo temperate | 0:44:01 | 0:44:06 | |
zones in the northern hemisphere, it
hasn't taken off apart from in | 0:44:06 | 0:44:12 | |
Canada -- from a flu point of view
for normal temperatures own is. | 0:44:12 | 0:44:16 | |
Let's get everybody vaccinated. --
for | 0:44:16 | 0:44:26 | |
It is cold this morning already. You
will know that if you have | 0:44:26 | 0:44:34 | |
It is cold this morning already. You
will know that if you have emerged | 0:44:34 | 0:44:34 | |
from the duvet already. Believe it
or not, out there this morning it is | 0:44:34 | 0:44:39 | |
the marvellous start to the week. It
will get colder as the week goes on | 0:44:39 | 0:44:43 | |
-- mildest start. The overall story
for the week is for cold air to | 0:44:43 | 0:44:48 | |
dominate. It turns the wind into a
northerly direction. Temperatures | 0:44:48 | 0:44:52 | |
dropping to their lowest by the time
we get to Thursday. A lot of | 0:44:52 | 0:44:56 | |
sunshine but quite a few showers as
well, and as well as being the | 0:44:56 | 0:45:00 | |
mildest start, the web is start in
southern counties, a cold front | 0:45:00 | 0:45:05 | |
pushing colder air back to all parts
later on -- mildest start. Outbreaks | 0:45:05 | 0:45:10 | |
of rain through many southern
counties to get us to the morning | 0:45:10 | 0:45:14 | |
rush hour. Quite windy across the
south, but note the temperatures. 11 | 0:45:14 | 0:45:18 | |
to 12 degrees. Lower as we push
further north, a mixture of sunshine | 0:45:18 | 0:45:24 | |
and a scattering of showers across
many parts of UK to start with. Some | 0:45:24 | 0:45:28 | |
of the driest places east of the
Pennines and the eastern parts of | 0:45:28 | 0:45:32 | |
Scotland. Showers across the hills
of northern England and Scotland | 0:45:32 | 0:45:35 | |
will be wintry, sleet and snow here.
A wintry start here, winds gusting | 0:45:35 | 0:45:39 | |
50 or 60 mph to begin with and it
will remain windy in the north-east | 0:45:39 | 0:45:45 | |
throughout. That will feed showers
across many parts of the UK through | 0:45:45 | 0:45:48 | |
the day. After a wet start, southern
counties will brighten up. It stays | 0:45:48 | 0:45:52 | |
wet in the Channel Islands
throughout, but most areas at least | 0:45:52 | 0:45:56 | |
seeing one or two showers pushing
through. Though showers get heavy | 0:45:56 | 0:46:01 | |
with hail and thunder, and maybe a
little bit of winter in this in the | 0:46:01 | 0:46:05 | |
north. Temperatures dropping for the
day. For most in single figures as | 0:46:05 | 0:46:10 | |
we go into the afternoon. It will
feel colder in the wind in the wind | 0:46:10 | 0:46:14 | |
will remain a feature tonight. Quite
a breezy night in store. A wet start | 0:46:14 | 0:46:18 | |
to the south-east of England, which
clears through. A few showers in | 0:46:18 | 0:46:22 | |
coastal districts to the north and
west in particular. Inland we will | 0:46:22 | 0:46:26 | |
see a touch of frost here and there
but the wind will keep temperatures | 0:46:26 | 0:46:31 | |
up a little bit. It will not stop it
feeling particularly cold tomorrow | 0:46:31 | 0:46:35 | |
morning. Tomorrow morning, a lot
more sunshine around to start your | 0:46:35 | 0:46:38 | |
day, especially southern and eastern
areas to begin with. If anything, | 0:46:38 | 0:46:42 | |
tomorrow, a few showers in the west.
Mainly rain and sleet but northern | 0:46:42 | 0:46:47 | |
Scotland, eastern Scotland and
eastern parts of England, more | 0:46:47 | 0:46:51 | |
showers for EU compared with today.
In the strongest of the winds is in | 0:46:51 | 0:46:55 | |
the east. It will feel more like
temperatures just either side of | 0:46:55 | 0:46:59 | |
freezing as we go into the
afternoon. A real wind chilled to | 0:46:59 | 0:47:03 | |
Tuesday, and that will remain
especially across eastern areas on | 0:47:03 | 0:47:06 | |
Wednesday. Eastern areas most prone
to showers on Wednesday. Western | 0:47:06 | 0:47:10 | |
areas always tend to be that bit
drier and brighter but wherever you | 0:47:10 | 0:47:15 | |
are it will feel cold. If anything,
temperatures will drop into | 0:47:15 | 0:47:20 | |
Thursday, around three or four
degrees at rest, and it will feel | 0:47:20 | 0:47:23 | |
chillier than that in the wind. So a
cold, wintry week in store to finish | 0:47:23 | 0:47:29 | |
November. This morning we start with
some wind and rain, especially | 0:47:29 | 0:47:32 | |
across southern counties. | 0:47:32 | 0:47:33 | |
some wind and rain, especially
across southern counties. We will | 0:47:33 | 0:47:36 | |
have to prepare the gloves, the hats
and the coats. | 0:47:36 | 0:47:39 | |
BBC Breakfast has learnt there has
been a significant rise in demand | 0:47:39 | 0:47:42 | |
for places in special
schools across England, | 0:47:42 | 0:47:44 | |
and we have heard of some parents
forced to send their children | 0:47:44 | 0:47:47 | |
hundreds of miles across
the country in order to access | 0:47:47 | 0:47:50 | |
the support they require. | 0:47:50 | 0:47:51 | |
The Government says it is investing
hundreds of millions of pounds | 0:47:51 | 0:47:54 | |
to try and ease the pressure. | 0:47:54 | 0:47:56 | |
So why is specialised
support so important? | 0:47:56 | 0:47:57 | |
Breakfast's Jayne McCubbin has been
given exclusive access to one school | 0:47:57 | 0:48:00 | |
in Manchester to find out. | 0:48:00 | 0:48:05 | |
We have been given rare access to
spend the day with the children at | 0:48:05 | 0:48:10 | |
the Royal School, Manchester. This
is a special school for children | 0:48:10 | 0:48:15 | |
with some of the highest needs. 200
staff support 48 children here, | 0:48:15 | 0:48:20 | |
including Chloe. We have just done
mapmaking. She has sat beautifully | 0:48:20 | 0:48:26 | |
the whole lesson, which she would
never, ever have done when she first | 0:48:26 | 0:48:31 | |
came here. That is fantastic. Chloe
has been here for 11 weeks. Ever | 0:48:31 | 0:48:37 | |
since her last school placement
broke down. It was so difficult. I | 0:48:37 | 0:48:42 | |
was very sad, I isolated myself, and
I didn't have a life. She would | 0:48:42 | 0:48:47 | |
physically try and attack me, not to
hurt me, but just out of distress. | 0:48:47 | 0:48:51 | |
The turnaround is above and beyond
what I could have imagined. Saying | 0:48:51 | 0:48:58 | |
mummy every day, she only said mummy
to me twice in six years, and now I | 0:48:58 | 0:49:04 | |
get it every day. I have got my
little girl back, she is so happy. | 0:49:04 | 0:49:08 | |
At all of this cost, and there is a
national shortage of places. James | 0:49:08 | 0:49:15 | |
survived birth at 25 weeks. Many
more babies are surviving premature | 0:49:15 | 0:49:20 | |
births, and conditions which
previously would have killed, but | 0:49:20 | 0:49:23 | |
many will have special needs because
of that, and many will join a | 0:49:23 | 0:49:27 | |
waiting list for a space. We've got
a seven-year-old child who is | 0:49:27 | 0:49:32 | |
starting here next week, and they're
coming from Hertfordshire. How many | 0:49:32 | 0:49:36 | |
miles is that? A long, long way. Is
that a great sadness to you, that | 0:49:36 | 0:49:42 | |
these children can't find the right
vision on the doorstop? Closer to | 0:49:42 | 0:49:47 | |
home, yes. -- doorstep. When TV
arrived, she couldn't walk or | 0:49:47 | 0:49:52 | |
communicate. -- Evie. She used to
slam the trays, and wouldn't make | 0:49:52 | 0:50:00 | |
eye contact. Today, Evie loves
music, and her clothes, and it | 0:50:00 | 0:50:06 | |
seems, cameras. And she loves hugs.
She can make these choices now. The | 0:50:06 | 0:50:14 | |
question is, where would Evie be
today if she had had this kind of | 0:50:14 | 0:50:18 | |
specialist support right from the
start? It costs a huge amount of | 0:50:18 | 0:50:22 | |
money to have a child here. Like,
maybe £250,000 a year. If we can | 0:50:22 | 0:50:28 | |
commit to investing that money much
earlier in places like this, we can | 0:50:28 | 0:50:32 | |
see children returning back to
mainstream, and over the life of | 0:50:32 | 0:50:36 | |
that child there will be a return on
that investment, which will mean | 0:50:36 | 0:50:39 | |
when they become adults, they get
employment, they go on to live | 0:50:39 | 0:50:42 | |
independently, and that will cost
society much less. Early | 0:50:42 | 0:50:46 | |
intervention is everything. Page for
Henry. Henry is doing so well he may | 0:50:46 | 0:50:52 | |
be able to move onwards and upwards
to let specialist provision -- H for | 0:50:52 | 0:50:57 | |
Henry. The reality for most
children, though, is that they will | 0:50:57 | 0:51:02 | |
have to have struggled in other less
specialist placements before they | 0:51:02 | 0:51:05 | |
can finally get to the place where
they make progress. I nigh feel like | 0:51:05 | 0:51:10 | |
she's got a future. She has a chance
in life -- I now feel. Goodbye. We | 0:51:10 | 0:51:16 | |
are going to let you go. See you
soon. Goodbye, see you soon. | 0:51:16 | 0:51:21 | |
Thanks so much to the children
at Manchester Royal School | 0:51:21 | 0:51:24 | |
for allowing us to visit. | 0:51:24 | 0:51:25 | |
Tomorrow, more in this series
on special educational needs | 0:51:25 | 0:51:28 | |
and disabilities, as we look
at the record rates of tribunals | 0:51:28 | 0:51:30 | |
where parents fight with local
authorities to get the right support | 0:51:30 | 0:51:33 | |
for their children. | 0:51:33 | 0:51:37 | |

Diane says teaching assistants are
now a luxury and schools are unable | 0:51:46 | 0:51:50 | |
to support children with SEN
properly. Sean says we took our | 0:51:50 | 0:51:57 | |
children out of mainstream education
in 2016 after his primary school | 0:51:57 | 0:52:01 | |
failed him continually. He has
autism and sensory processing | 0:52:01 | 0:52:05 | |
disorder and since then no one has
taken an interest in him, despite | 0:52:05 | 0:52:09 | |
having an educational healthcare
plan. It shows if you are not a | 0:52:09 | 0:52:13 | |
round peg in a round hole, things
can go wrong. And Sally says that it | 0:52:13 | 0:52:21 | |
sounds like nothing much has changed
for these young people. It doesn't | 0:52:21 | 0:52:24 | |
get any easier. There is always a
battle to be fought. Keep those | 0:52:24 | 0:52:29 | |
coming in, thank you very much for
those. Good morning to you. | 0:52:29 | 0:52:33 | |
High-tech industries,
from pharmaceuticals to robotics | 0:52:33 | 0:52:34 | |
and biochemistry to engineering,
are to receive a boost | 0:52:34 | 0:52:37 | |
in funding and training. | 0:52:37 | 0:52:38 | |
It is because the Government
believes the sector will provide | 0:52:38 | 0:52:41 | |
the best opportunity
to improve the UK's | 0:52:41 | 0:52:42 | |
economic performance post-Brexit. | 0:52:42 | 0:52:43 | |
Sean is in Coventry
for us this morning. | 0:52:43 | 0:52:50 | |
Good morning. I am having a very
jolly time of it. Staying away from | 0:52:50 | 0:52:57 | |
the robots at the moment. You can
see the huge Manufacturing | 0:52:57 | 0:53:01 | |
Technology Centre here in Coventry.
Very reflective of the idea of what | 0:53:01 | 0:53:06 | |
the government wants to achieve when
it comes to the strategy. You have | 0:53:06 | 0:53:11 | |
the innovation from local
universities being fermented into | 0:53:11 | 0:53:13 | |
machinery. All kinds of businesses
will be here using this, trying to | 0:53:13 | 0:53:17 | |
figure out how they can improve
their own businesses with this -- | 0:53:17 | 0:53:21 | |
being fermented. We will have a chat
Clive, the chief executive of the | 0:53:21 | 0:53:30 | |
whole place. What can the government
learn in implementing an industrial | 0:53:30 | 0:53:36 | |
strategy to put skills together with
business investment, all that kind | 0:53:36 | 0:53:39 | |
of thing, and make Britain great at
some of this stuff. I think the key | 0:53:39 | 0:53:45 | |
thing we have to think about is that
this environment creates a place | 0:53:45 | 0:53:48 | |
where we can bring industry and
academia together with how other | 0:53:48 | 0:53:56 | |
capabilities and use it as a sandpit
to try things out. So take an | 0:53:56 | 0:54:01 | |
industry out of its comfort zone,
pushing forward new technologies, | 0:54:01 | 0:54:05 | |
and giving them the opportunities to
see how they can apply those to | 0:54:05 | 0:54:09 | |
different applications in their
industry. What kind of stuff have we | 0:54:09 | 0:54:12 | |
got going on now? We can see a
couple of lads at work on the 3D | 0:54:12 | 0:54:17 | |
printing machines. How is that a
good example of what we want to see | 0:54:17 | 0:54:20 | |
more of? So what we see now is that
3D printing started out as a polymer | 0:54:20 | 0:54:27 | |
3D printing capability. We have
moved that on the bee dance alloy | 0:54:27 | 0:54:31 | |
powders that we use for 3D printing.
We call it additive manufacture -- | 0:54:31 | 0:54:39 | |
to be dance alloy powders. And
having the same skills here as a bit | 0:54:39 | 0:54:46 | |
of a hub can mean more business is
having a look at what you are doing. | 0:54:46 | 0:54:51 | |
And we can have the
cross-fertilisation of the different | 0:54:51 | 0:54:54 | |
technologies you use ringing people
together to look at how you can use | 0:54:54 | 0:54:57 | |
3D printing with robotics, with
lasers. So there is lots going on. | 0:54:57 | 0:55:04 | |
You have the lads on the 3D
printers, and the dreaded robots. My | 0:55:04 | 0:55:08 | |
nemeses are here as well. How much
can these help business? Let's have | 0:55:08 | 0:55:13 | |
a chat to Richard Butler. This is
really advanced technology here. A | 0:55:13 | 0:55:18 | |
lot of businesses will be looking at
this and thinking where can I get | 0:55:18 | 0:55:22 | |
this into my business? The
government is trying to carry out a | 0:55:22 | 0:55:25 | |
big industrial strategy at a time it
is also trying to carry out big | 0:55:25 | 0:55:30 | |
Brexit negotiations, almost as
crucial, if not more so, for | 0:55:30 | 0:55:33 | |
business. Can they do both? I think
it is a good question. Addressing | 0:55:33 | 0:55:39 | |
the industrial strategy is as
important to Brexit for moving the | 0:55:39 | 0:55:44 | |
economy forward. When you talk about
productivity, some of these robots | 0:55:44 | 0:55:51 | |
are clearly doing the job of many
people before. When it comes to | 0:55:51 | 0:55:55 | |
productivity, this isn't going to
help people get a pay rise next | 0:55:55 | 0:55:58 | |
year, is it, which is what the big
issue last week we were talking | 0:55:58 | 0:56:04 | |
about was. You're right, if people
expect immediate returns next year, | 0:56:04 | 0:56:09 | |
that is not going to happen. This is
about longer term productivity, | 0:56:09 | 0:56:12 | |
where companies can make bigger
profits and as a result of that can | 0:56:12 | 0:56:18 | |
pay their employees more in due
course. If you look at the likes of | 0:56:18 | 0:56:23 | |
Rolls-Royce, aerospace, Jaguar Land
Rover, these are companies at the | 0:56:23 | 0:56:26 | |
Top End of productivity, and the Top
End of pay scales. The idea is a big | 0:56:26 | 0:56:32 | |
productivity boost. A white paper
out today. We will talk about | 0:56:32 | 0:59:54 | |
That's all for now, but we will be
back in half an hour. | 0:59:54 | 0:59:57 | |
There is more on our website
at the usual address. | 0:59:57 | 1:00:00 | |
Goodbye. | 1:00:00 | 1:00:01 | |
Hello, this is Breakfast,
with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin. | 1:00:31 | 1:00:35 | |
Eruption imminent. | 1:00:35 | 1:00:37 | |
Bali's airport is closed leaving | 1:00:37 | 1:00:39 | |
thousands of tourists stranded
as Mount Agung becomes increasingly | 1:00:39 | 1:00:42 | |
volatile, with lava bubbling
close to the surface. | 1:00:42 | 1:00:45 | |
These area near the volcano is now
on the highest state of alert | 1:00:45 | 1:00:49 | |
and hundreds of thousands of people
have been moved into shelters. | 1:00:49 | 1:00:51 | |
Good morning, it's Monday
the 27th of November. | 1:01:07 | 1:01:09 | |
Also this morning: | 1:01:09 | 1:01:11 | |
The five people
killed when a stolen car smashed | 1:01:11 | 1:01:14 | |
into a tree in Leeds are named. | 1:01:14 | 1:01:20 | |
Three are children,
including two brothers. | 1:01:20 | 1:01:21 | |
Desperate measures. | 1:01:21 | 1:01:22 | |
Fears that children with special
needs are being failed by the system | 1:01:22 | 1:01:25 | |
as increasing numbers of parents
are home educting their children. | 1:01:25 | 1:01:35 | |
good morning. The government
announces its big plans to boost the | 1:01:35 | 1:01:40 | |
economy today so I'm this high-tech
research centre in commentary to see | 1:01:40 | 1:01:44 | |
if the industrial strategy proposals
will encourage business investment | 1:01:44 | 1:01:47 | |
in the UK. | 1:01:47 | 1:01:48 | |
In sport, England lose
the first Ashes Test. | 1:01:48 | 1:01:51 | |
Australia get the runs they needed
easily to win by ten | 1:01:51 | 1:01:54 | |
wickets in Brisbane. | 1:01:54 | 1:01:57 | |
I can use you... Youzhny? Yeah, use
you. -- use me. | 1:01:57 | 1:02:18 | |
And Matt has the weather. | 1:02:18 | 1:02:22 | |
The modest start to the week but wet
and windy weather for some. A warm | 1:02:22 | 1:02:28 | |
jacket week. More details coming up
soon that my oldest. -- mildest. | 1:02:28 | 1:02:40 | |
Good morning. | 1:02:40 | 1:02:41 | |
First, our main story. | 1:02:41 | 1:02:42 | |
Authorities in Bali have warned that
a volcano on the island | 1:02:42 | 1:02:45 | |
is in imminent danger
of a full-scale eruption. | 1:02:45 | 1:02:47 | |
Mount Agung has been sending clouds
of thick ash and smoke | 1:02:47 | 1:02:50 | |
thousands of feet into
the air since Saturday. | 1:02:50 | 1:02:52 | |
The airport has been closed
and locals have been ordered | 1:02:52 | 1:02:55 | |
to leave their homes. | 1:02:55 | 1:02:56 | |
Andrew Plant has the latest. | 1:02:56 | 1:03:00 | |
Bali's most sacred mountain,
an ancient volcano rumbling back | 1:03:00 | 1:03:02 | |
to life with billows of black smoke. | 1:03:02 | 1:03:04 | |
Mount Agung has been sleeping
for more than half a century, | 1:03:04 | 1:03:07 | |
now awake and angry. | 1:03:07 | 1:03:08 | |
Experts believe a major eruption
could be about to happen. | 1:03:08 | 1:03:11 | |
TRANSLATION: The volcano has entered
the magmatic eruption phase. | 1:03:11 | 1:03:13 | |
There is now the possibility
of a strong explosive eruption. | 1:03:13 | 1:03:24 | |
Those living nearby were evacuated
in September at the first | 1:03:24 | 1:03:26 | |
signs of activity. | 1:03:26 | 1:03:27 | |
Now the exclusion zone
is a circle 12 miles wide. | 1:03:27 | 1:03:30 | |
The thick ash rising thousands
of metres means many flights | 1:03:30 | 1:03:33 | |
to and from this popular tourist
destination have now been grounded. | 1:03:33 | 1:03:37 | |
All the flights were cancelled
so we're just now at the airport, | 1:03:37 | 1:03:40 | |
we don't know what we're
doing and we are trying | 1:03:40 | 1:03:43 | |
to find another flight. | 1:03:43 | 1:03:45 | |
In Bali, no one is
taking any chances. | 1:03:45 | 1:03:49 | |
More than 150,000 people
are in temporary shelters. | 1:03:49 | 1:03:52 | |
When the volcano last erupted
in 1963, more than 1,000 | 1:03:52 | 1:03:55 | |
people were killed. | 1:03:55 | 1:03:56 | |
This time the Indonesian government
says it is much better prepared. | 1:03:56 | 1:03:59 | |
Andrew Plant, BBC News. | 1:03:59 | 1:04:13 | |
Bali is home to four active
volcanoes and there are fears the | 1:04:13 | 1:04:16 | |
largest could fully erupt within a
day. Indonesian authorities have put | 1:04:16 | 1:04:22 | |
the island on the highest level of
alert. | 1:04:22 | 1:04:26 | |
Elaine, thank you for talking to us
this morning, I know you're a safe | 1:04:26 | 1:04:31 | |
distance away outside the exclusion
zone, but what is it like at the | 1:04:31 | 1:04:35 | |
moment? Everywhere is quite calm.
The local population such as the | 1:04:35 | 1:04:43 | |
farmers in the field are busy
gathering in their rice, crushing it | 1:04:43 | 1:04:47 | |
and laying it on the ground in big
sheets. Despite the ash that has | 1:04:47 | 1:04:51 | |
fallen on all surfaces. Further out
there's a place I was at this | 1:04:51 | 1:04:57 | |
morning and the ash on the leaves is
quite thick and silvery. Further out | 1:04:57 | 1:05:02 | |
there is no sign of any ash on any
surfaces, such as cars or streets. | 1:05:02 | 1:05:09 | |
They cleaned it this morning and a
small smattering has appeared again. | 1:05:09 | 1:05:14 | |
We've been hearing many people have
been moved away and evacuated, how | 1:05:14 | 1:05:18 | |
are people generally reacting? A few
local people who are not indigenous | 1:05:18 | 1:05:25 | |
Balinese, they have decided to leave
voluntarily to head towards | 1:05:25 | 1:05:31 | |
Denpasar, the capital. But people
such as myself, various other people | 1:05:31 | 1:05:37 | |
who like using cameras, they are
actually chasing the volcano! They | 1:05:37 | 1:05:42 | |
are coming here specifically to this
great mountain views hotel in order | 1:05:42 | 1:05:47 | |
to have a clear view of the volcano
when the clouds are not of skewering | 1:05:47 | 1:05:51 | |
it. At the moment there's a tall of
smoke rising in the air but it is | 1:05:51 | 1:05:56 | |
pretty much of smoke rising in the
air but it is pretty much obscured | 1:05:56 | 1:06:00 | |
by the clouds at the base of the
volcano. It doesn't appear that you | 1:06:00 | 1:06:04 | |
are worried about this, Elaine, our
others worried? I think my family | 1:06:04 | 1:06:09 | |
might be worried for me! -- are
other people worried? I'm not the | 1:06:09 | 1:06:14 | |
kind of person to get scared easily.
The last time the mountain erupted | 1:06:14 | 1:06:19 | |
in the 1960s, over 1000 died, I
would imagine things have changed a | 1:06:19 | 1:06:23 | |
bit since then, though? I think
nature will be exactly the same but | 1:06:23 | 1:06:28 | |
the authorities have placed an
exclusion zone around the volcano, | 1:06:28 | 1:06:32 | |
which they hope will be enough to
maintain life. Good to talk to you, | 1:06:32 | 1:06:37 | |
stay safe and hopefully you can take
some nice pictures and we'll get an | 1:06:37 | 1:06:41 | |
update with you over the next few
days on BBC Breakfast. Thanks for | 1:06:41 | 1:06:48 | |
talking to us, Elaine.
We will keep you up to date with | 1:06:48 | 1:06:51 | |
what's going on with the volcano as
well. | 1:06:51 | 1:06:58 | |
The families of five people,
including three children, | 1:06:58 | 1:07:00 | |
who died when a stolen car crashed
into a tree in Leeds have paid | 1:07:00 | 1:07:04 | |
tribute to their relatives. | 1:07:04 | 1:07:07 | |
Our reporter, Phil Bodmer,
is in Leeds where a vigil was held | 1:07:07 | 1:07:11 | |
in memory of the victims last night. | 1:07:11 | 1:07:13 | |
Police are still investigating
the collision, but have | 1:07:13 | 1:07:15 | |
they released anything more
about what happened? | 1:07:15 | 1:07:17 | |
That's right, Louise. The
circumstances of what happened here | 1:07:17 | 1:07:19 | |
just before 10pm on Saturday night
are still very much unclear. As you | 1:07:19 | 1:07:24 | |
mentioned, a vigil was held by many
local people last night in memory of | 1:07:24 | 1:07:28 | |
the victims and the growing pile of
floral tributes is behind me as the | 1:07:28 | 1:07:33 | |
police pieced together what
happened. The victims have been | 1:07:33 | 1:07:37 | |
named locally as brothers Ellis and
Elliott Thornton, Ellis was 12 and | 1:07:37 | 1:07:42 | |
Elliott was 15. They lead died
alongside 15-year-old Darnell Harte | 1:07:42 | 1:07:46 | |
and 24-year-old Robbie Meerun.
Father of two Anthony Armour, 28, he | 1:07:46 | 1:07:54 | |
also died in the collision. Police
are appealing for anyone who may | 1:07:54 | 1:07:58 | |
have been in the area on Saturday
night who may have seen anything or | 1:07:58 | 1:08:03 | |
seen what happened in the buildup to
the tragic crash to come forward. | 1:08:03 | 1:08:07 | |
Meanwhile two 15 -year-olds remain
in custody, they were arrested on | 1:08:07 | 1:08:12 | |
suspicion of causing death by
dangerous driving but still a long | 1:08:12 | 1:08:16 | |
way to go in this investigation and
we're expecting further updates from | 1:08:16 | 1:08:20 | |
West Yorkshire police later today.
Phil Bodmer, thank you very much. | 1:08:20 | 1:08:24 | |
Theresa May has said the government
will fund the full cost of dealing | 1:08:24 | 1:08:28 | |
with the aftermath of the suicide
bombing at the Manchester Arena, | 1:08:28 | 1:08:31 | |
which killed 22 people in May. | 1:08:31 | 1:08:32 | |
It comes after the Mayor
of Greater Manchester, | 1:08:32 | 1:08:34 | |
Andy Burnham, said the government's
initial offer was £5 million too | 1:08:34 | 1:08:38 | |
low and estimated that £28
million would be needed. | 1:08:38 | 1:08:40 | |
High-tech industries are set
to receive millions of pounds | 1:08:40 | 1:08:43 | |
in extra funding to boost
skills and create jobs. | 1:08:43 | 1:08:48 | |
We have sent Sean to a factory which
makes machines for factories. That's | 1:08:48 | 1:08:53 | |
right, Sean, isn't it? He's wearing
a very rare blue high-viz jacket? | 1:08:53 | 1:08:59 | |
They aren't quite that rare here but
it makes a change from the normal | 1:08:59 | 1:09:05 | |
fluorescent yellow, very nice!
Industrial strategy, a white paper | 1:09:05 | 1:09:08 | |
which is a lot of proposals from the
government on what it wants to see | 1:09:08 | 1:09:13 | |
implemented. Advanced manufacturing
would be one area where the idea of | 1:09:13 | 1:09:17 | |
an industrial strategy is to make
sure whoever comes up with the idea | 1:09:17 | 1:09:21 | |
of the machine will get the business
investment, the government policy | 1:09:21 | 1:09:24 | |
around that and the skills to make
Britain very good at certain | 1:09:24 | 1:09:28 | |
sectors. There are five key areas
this industrial strategy is going to | 1:09:28 | 1:09:33 | |
look at. First you have ideas. You
need to come up with the ideas for | 1:09:33 | 1:09:39 | |
these machines. How do we make sure
those ideas in the UK are as big as | 1:09:39 | 1:09:44 | |
they can be and everyone comes --
everyone who comes up with them talk | 1:09:44 | 1:09:52 | |
to each other. You have people.
Infrastructure, getting around the | 1:09:52 | 1:09:55 | |
country. All that needs investment.
You have the business environment. | 1:09:55 | 1:10:03 | |
Lots of businesses and universities
want the cash involved and the | 1:10:03 | 1:10:08 | |
government policy to enable them to
do it. Then the places. Around the | 1:10:08 | 1:10:12 | |
UK, that's one idea behind this, the
investment we've heard about today | 1:10:12 | 1:10:18 | |
from big pharmaceutical MSD is
outside of London, that's what the | 1:10:18 | 1:10:21 | |
government wants to see more of, not
just London centric. Some businesses | 1:10:21 | 1:10:26 | |
are concerned about the uncertainty
of Brexit being a distraction from | 1:10:26 | 1:10:31 | |
this industrial strategy, it's not
straightforward that it will help | 1:10:31 | 1:10:34 | |
people tomorrow, this is investment
for many years ahead. It might not | 1:10:34 | 1:10:39 | |
help the economy in the near future,
like we talked about last week, but | 1:10:39 | 1:10:43 | |
this morning we will talk about what
this means for the British economy | 1:10:43 | 1:10:46 | |
in future decades. Thanks very much,
Sean. | 1:10:46 | 1:11:02 | |
Councils in England generated £819
million in profit | 1:11:02 | 1:11:04 | |
from parking fees and fines
during the last financial year, | 1:11:04 | 1:11:07 | |
that's 10% higher than
in the previous one. | 1:11:07 | 1:11:09 | |
Figures obtained by the RAC
Foundation showed four | 1:11:09 | 1:11:11 | |
of the five
councils with the largest | 1:11:11 | 1:11:13 | |
surplus were in London. | 1:11:13 | 1:11:14 | |
The Local Government Association
said income from parking went | 1:11:14 | 1:11:16 | |
towards essential transport
projects and repairs. | 1:11:16 | 1:11:18 | |
You're up to date with the latest
news. You're watching BBC News | 1:11:18 | 1:11:21 | |
first. Good morning. Six former
British soldiers imprisoned in India | 1:11:21 | 1:11:26 | |
since 2013 will find out today
whether they will be released on | 1:11:26 | 1:11:29 | |
appeal. | 1:11:29 | 1:11:35 | |
The so-called Chennai Six had been
working on an anti-piracy | 1:11:35 | 1:11:38 | |
ship when they were
arrested four years ago. | 1:11:38 | 1:11:42 | |
There were 35 sailors
on the American-owned Seaman Guard | 1:11:42 | 1:11:44 | |
Ohio, which provided armed
protection to vessels sailing | 1:11:44 | 1:11:50 | |
through an area known
as Pirates Alley between | 1:11:50 | 1:11:52 | |
the Indian Ocean
and the Red Sea. | 1:11:52 | 1:11:54 | |
Customs officials and
police found 35 guns, | 1:11:54 | 1:11:56 | |
including semi-automatic weapons,
as well as nearly 6,000 | 1:11:56 | 1:11:58 | |
rounds of ammunition on board
the ship, which did not have | 1:11:58 | 1:12:01 | |
permission to be in Indian waters. | 1:12:01 | 1:12:02 | |
The six Brits were accused
of illegally possessing weapons | 1:12:02 | 1:12:05 | |
and jailed for five years,
but have consistently | 1:12:05 | 1:12:07 | |
denied any wrongdoing. | 1:12:07 | 1:12:08 | |
We're joined now by family
members of two of the men, | 1:12:08 | 1:12:11 | |
Yvonne MacHugh, who is
Billy Irving's fiance. | 1:12:11 | 1:12:13 | |
and Joanne Thomlinson,
who is John Armstrong's sister. | 1:12:13 | 1:12:17 | |
I know you recently came back from
visiting your family members, last | 1:12:17 | 1:12:23 | |
Sunday, how are they? They are
surprisingly well. Billy was in | 1:12:23 | 1:12:27 | |
great spirits, obviously he's been
over in India and he was trying to | 1:12:27 | 1:12:34 | |
keep me positive and trying to keep
me happy and reassuring me that he's | 1:12:34 | 1:12:38 | |
going to be OK and just to make sure
I look after myself and our son and | 1:12:38 | 1:12:46 | |
that everything will be OK. How old
is he? Blue he is two. Has he seen | 1:12:46 | 1:12:51 | |
him at this point? They were free
men when all the charges were | 1:12:51 | 1:12:59 | |
quashed, Billy was still out in
India unable to come home so I | 1:12:59 | 1:13:02 | |
brought my son out to see him when
he was three months and that was the | 1:13:02 | 1:13:07 | |
first time he saw him and the other
two times were in prison behind | 1:13:07 | 1:13:11 | |
bars. That's really tough, isn't it?
John, how is he doing? He's | 1:13:11 | 1:13:18 | |
incredibly resilient, staying really
strong and he's really the same | 1:13:18 | 1:13:21 | |
person that left the UK over four
years ago, which is incredible after | 1:13:21 | 1:13:25 | |
everything these men have been
through. They were originally held | 1:13:25 | 1:13:29 | |
without charge, all the charges were
dropped against them in 2014 after | 1:13:29 | 1:13:34 | |
they were charged, held without
charge for 18 months and then | 1:13:34 | 1:13:39 | |
convicted so it's been a huge
endurance test for the men and the | 1:13:39 | 1:13:42 | |
families but they're doing really
well. Give us an idea of the | 1:13:42 | 1:13:46 | |
conditions, you have to pay for
clean drinking water, quite a few | 1:13:46 | 1:13:50 | |
have suffered from dysentery and
other things in jail? Absolutely, | 1:13:50 | 1:13:53 | |
they are in a shared cells, they
sleep on the floor. They get one | 1:13:53 | 1:13:58 | |
meal a day and they are reliant on
the care packages the British public | 1:13:58 | 1:14:02 | |
have been sending over to them to
supplement their diet. What about | 1:14:02 | 1:14:07 | |
the conditions, you have seen some
of them? We have been over there to | 1:14:07 | 1:14:12 | |
the prison. Our visits are in the
jailer's office so we don't get to | 1:14:12 | 1:14:17 | |
see the cell but the smell when you
walk into the prison hits you, it is | 1:14:17 | 1:14:22 | |
disgusting. It is over 40 degrees
without any air conditioning. They | 1:14:22 | 1:14:28 | |
have snakes and rats, it is just
while. Are you hopeful that you will | 1:14:28 | 1:14:35 | |
see them get out today? -- vile. It
is really up in the air. I am so | 1:14:35 | 1:14:40 | |
apprehensive about it all. Sorry, I
didn't mean to interrupt you. | 1:14:40 | 1:14:47 | |
Basically I don't think there will
be a chance they will get out today | 1:14:47 | 1:14:50 | |
but we're hoping that the verdict
will decide that they can be free | 1:14:50 | 1:14:55 | |
men. It wouldn't happen immediately,
though, because they will be | 1:14:55 | 1:14:59 | |
processes. What help have you had
from the Foreign Office? There's | 1:14:59 | 1:15:04 | |
been criticism of the role Boris
Johnson and others have played in | 1:15:04 | 1:15:07 | |
this. Definitely, they certainly
haven't taken a strong enough stance | 1:15:07 | 1:15:11 | |
on this. They have raised the case
over 50 times with their Indian | 1:15:11 | 1:15:17 | |
counterparts yet we have seen no
progress from that. So there's a lot | 1:15:17 | 1:15:22 | |
of talking, a lot of saying we're
doing this, we're doing that, but | 1:15:22 | 1:15:26 | |
we've seen no progress and no
movement from the courts. We're now | 1:15:26 | 1:15:30 | |
four years on and the men are still
in prison so whatever they're doing | 1:15:30 | 1:15:34 | |
isn't working and we need them to
take a stronger stance if this | 1:15:34 | 1:15:37 | |
appeal doesn't go in our favour. I
know you will be watching the | 1:15:37 | 1:15:42 | |
verdict closely today. Can you get
in contact with them afterwards, | 1:15:42 | 1:15:45 | |
what will happen? Basically they
will have to phone their lawyer | 1:15:45 | 1:15:49 | |
today to find out the verdict, so
it's very possible we could know for | 1:15:49 | 1:15:53 | |
a few hours before the men. But
we're hoping we will be able to | 1:15:53 | 1:15:58 | |
speak to the lawyer quickly and
we'll go from there. They were all | 1:15:58 | 1:16:02 | |
in the armed forces? The six British
men were. John was in the Parachute | 1:16:02 | 1:16:08 | |
Regiment, as was clearly. Parlay
their army training has taught them | 1:16:08 | 1:16:12 | |
well in terms of dealing with the
conditions and conditions -- | 1:16:12 | 1:16:17 | |
clearly. -- Gilly. I know you will
be watching it with us on BBC | 1:16:17 | 1:16:24 | |
Breakfast and good luck to you --
Billy. We will get you a comment | 1:16:24 | 1:16:31 | |
from the Home Office as well a
little bit later in the programme. | 1:16:31 | 1:16:34 | |
Thank you for your time. It is going
to be hats, coats, everything, isn't | 1:16:34 | 1:16:41 | |
it? | 1:16:41 | 1:16:43 | |
to be hats, coats, everything, isn't
it? Yes, good morning. We might be | 1:16:43 | 1:16:44 | |
in November, but nature is jumping
the gun, so it will feel more like | 1:16:44 | 1:16:50 | |
winter. Temperatures will drop and
if we look at the forecast, it is | 1:16:50 | 1:16:55 | |
summarised by the word cold, cold
weather for just about all of us, | 1:16:55 | 1:16:59 | |
not today, though. We will see the
mildest conditions to start the week | 1:16:59 | 1:17:03 | |
this morning. Temperatures will drop
through the day. The warmest of all, | 1:17:03 | 1:17:07 | |
if you call it warm, across southern
counties of England, 11- 12 degrees | 1:17:07 | 1:17:12 | |
at the moment. Some windy conditions
with it and outbreaks of rain | 1:17:12 | 1:17:16 | |
through the morning rush hour.
Clearing from the south of Wales | 1:17:16 | 1:17:20 | |
shortly and clearing away from
London at around eight or 9am and | 1:17:20 | 1:17:24 | |
north of that it is chilly weather
with temperatures dropping across | 1:17:24 | 1:17:28 | |
the Midlands, East Anglia and Wales,
sunshine, one or two showers, | 1:17:28 | 1:17:33 | |
showers in north-west England into
Scotland and Northern Ireland, some | 1:17:33 | 1:17:36 | |
will be heavy and wintry, especially
over high ground. The north-east | 1:17:36 | 1:17:40 | |
Scotland is a windy start on Monday
morning, 50 or 60 mph, and it will | 1:17:40 | 1:17:45 | |
be particularly windy and feeling
very cold and raw through the day. | 1:17:45 | 1:17:50 | |
It will be breezy across the country
and that wind coming from the | 1:17:50 | 1:17:53 | |
north-west as we go into the
afternoon will bring the drop in | 1:17:53 | 1:17:57 | |
temperatures in southern counties.
The rain band in the southern part | 1:17:57 | 1:18:02 | |
of England into the Channel Island,
temperatures holding into double | 1:18:02 | 1:18:05 | |
figures. Foremost in the afternoon
around seven, eight or nine at the | 1:18:05 | 1:18:09 | |
best, and then cold when showers
come your way and they will turn | 1:18:09 | 1:18:13 | |
increasingly wintry over the high
ground of northern England, Scotland | 1:18:13 | 1:18:16 | |
and Northern Ireland. This evening
it is wet in south-west of England | 1:18:16 | 1:18:20 | |
with showers dotted around the
country, though they will fade | 1:18:20 | 1:18:24 | |
across the UK tonight, confined into
northern and western coasts in | 1:18:24 | 1:18:27 | |
particular. With clear skies inland
we might see a touch of frost into | 1:18:27 | 1:18:32 | |
tomorrow morning. Because of the
breeze through the night, | 1:18:32 | 1:18:36 | |
temperatures falsely kept above
freezing. It won't feel like that in | 1:18:36 | 1:18:39 | |
the morning. It will be very cold as
you step out thanks to the wind. | 1:18:39 | 1:18:43 | |
Lovely start in fact for southern
and eastern areas with sunshine out. | 1:18:43 | 1:18:47 | |
But through the day we will see some
showers, though they will be fewer | 1:18:47 | 1:18:52 | |
than today, certainly in the west,
not as many around, but more in | 1:18:52 | 1:18:56 | |
eastern Scotland and England,
turning wintry quite readily through | 1:18:56 | 1:18:59 | |
the afternoon. And with the strong
wind, it will feel more like | 1:18:59 | 1:19:05 | |
temperatures are close to freezing
for eastern counties in the second | 1:19:05 | 1:19:08 | |
half of the day. And the chilly wind
will be with us into Wednesday. | 1:19:08 | 1:19:12 | |
Eastern areas prone to the showers
across Wednesday. Further west, | 1:19:12 | 1:19:16 | |
sunshine, only one or two showers
and with temperatures dropping | 1:19:16 | 1:19:20 | |
showers turn increasingly wintry to
lower levels in the east. And on | 1:19:20 | 1:19:24 | |
Thursday we could even see showers
across south-east England. And | 1:19:24 | 1:19:28 | |
temperatures on Thursday at best
around three or four degrees, | 1:19:28 | 1:19:32 | |
temperatures this time of year
should be around seven or 10 | 1:19:32 | 1:19:35 | |
degrees. So, certainly cold weather
this week in store after what is a | 1:19:35 | 1:19:41 | |
relatively mild start. Thank you | 1:19:41 | 1:19:43 | |
relatively mild start. Thank you
very much. We will prepare. Good | 1:19:43 | 1:19:45 | |
morning. Let's return to one of the
main stories this morning. There are | 1:19:45 | 1:19:52 | |
fears children with special needs
have been let down by the education | 1:19:52 | 1:19:55 | |
system. An exclusive report has
found a 57% increase in students | 1:19:55 | 1:20:03 | |
taught at home. We have been told by
some that it is the only option. | 1:20:03 | 1:20:08 | |
Today we are looking at what life is
like for the most vulnerable | 1:20:08 | 1:20:11 | |
children. And in the first of our
reports, our education expert looks | 1:20:11 | 1:20:17 | |
at some of the challenges faced. | 1:20:17 | 1:20:19 | |
For more than a year Emily has been
learning at home. She has been | 1:20:19 | 1:20:24 | |
diagnosed with autism and ADHD.
School felt noisy and overwhelming. | 1:20:24 | 1:20:27 | |
A bit stressful. Because I don't
really like a lot of loud noises, | 1:20:27 | 1:20:35 | |
because it just makes me really
upset and I want to learn things | 1:20:35 | 1:20:40 | |
that I'm interested in, but it is
like I can't learn anything because | 1:20:40 | 1:20:44 | |
I don't know how to and they don't
tell me how. Emily would get angry | 1:20:44 | 1:20:50 | |
and lash out. Now she is on
medication, at home. Her mum Lorna | 1:20:50 | 1:20:56 | |
decided to home educate after trying
three schools. I couldn't cope with | 1:20:56 | 1:21:00 | |
her going to school and then coming
back with her. So stressed out, so | 1:21:00 | 1:21:06 | |
angry at me. And then not wanting to
go to school the next day. The | 1:21:06 | 1:21:10 | |
meltdowns were horrendous. And I
can't put her in the car and | 1:21:10 | 1:21:14 | |
physically take her to school. Lorna
is not the only parent to reach this | 1:21:14 | 1:21:19 | |
decision. A growing number of
families with children with special | 1:21:19 | 1:21:23 | |
needs are deciding to home educate.
The fear is they are doing that | 1:21:23 | 1:21:27 | |
because they feel let down by the
school system. Between 2013 and 2017 | 1:21:27 | 1:21:34 | |
there was a 57% increase in children
with special needs home educated and | 1:21:34 | 1:21:40 | |
that is just children who have a
statement or equivalent in England, | 1:21:40 | 1:21:45 | |
Wales and Northern Ireland. It is a
64% increase if you just look at | 1:21:45 | 1:21:49 | |
England. Scotland has a different
system, making comparison difficult. | 1:21:49 | 1:21:53 | |
I think before they were children
genuinely making a choice because it | 1:21:53 | 1:21:57 | |
was the right thing for them and now
there are too many families and | 1:21:57 | 1:22:01 | |
young people for whom they say they
don't feel they have any other | 1:22:01 | 1:22:04 | |
option and so they have to resort to
home education and that cannot be | 1:22:04 | 1:22:08 | |
right. Emily is learning differently
with some extra classes. She is | 1:22:08 | 1:22:13 | |
happier at school, but she misses
her friends. In England the | 1:22:13 | 1:22:17 | |
government says more special
education places are being created | 1:22:17 | 1:22:20 | |
and it is putting money into the
system to make it work better. | 1:22:20 | 1:22:28 | |
And we are hearing so many people
getting in touch with us about | 1:22:28 | 1:22:31 | |
what's going on and some people
really finding this is the only | 1:22:31 | 1:22:35 | |
option. What more can you tell us
about the figures? You heard the | 1:22:35 | 1:22:41 | |
experience from Emily and Lorna but
we investigated what was happening | 1:22:41 | 1:22:44 | |
to children who had already had
their needs investigated with a | 1:22:44 | 1:22:49 | |
statement and in place and when you
look at the figures it is really | 1:22:49 | 1:22:52 | |
interesting. Around 1600 across
England, Wales and Northern Ireland | 1:22:52 | 1:22:58 | |
are being home educated for a
variety of reasons. But we have | 1:22:58 | 1:23:01 | |
heard part of it is pushed out of
the system they feel. Around 1000 | 1:23:01 | 1:23:06 | |
don't have a school place at all
which means that they have simply | 1:23:06 | 1:23:09 | |
not been able to find somewhere that
suits their child's needs. And the | 1:23:09 | 1:23:14 | |
average waiting time for a place now
is five months, that is an awfully | 1:23:14 | 1:23:18 | |
long time to be managing a child at
home if really you think they are | 1:23:18 | 1:23:23 | |
missing out on all the support that
they can get that makes a real | 1:23:23 | 1:23:31 | |
difference. And those figures are
just the tip of the iceberg. These | 1:23:31 | 1:23:34 | |
are children with severe, complex
needs. There are plenty more | 1:23:34 | 1:23:37 | |
families like Lorna and Emily that
are not even in these figures. So a | 1:23:37 | 1:23:41 | |
large rise in numbers and so many
people getting in contact this | 1:23:41 | 1:23:44 | |
morning. Lots of people pointing to
funding issues. Is that what it | 1:23:44 | 1:23:47 | |
comes down to? Some of it is about
money. If you have a child in your | 1:23:47 | 1:23:53 | |
school with a care plan and you are
a head teacher in England you have | 1:23:53 | 1:23:57 | |
to find £6,000 for that child to
meet the extra needs, which could be | 1:23:57 | 1:24:00 | |
a teaching assistant, one-on-one, to
help in class, extra support, | 1:24:00 | 1:24:05 | |
learning aids if they need it,
before you go to the local council | 1:24:05 | 1:24:09 | |
to get a top up through the central
system. That is a lot of money and | 1:24:09 | 1:24:13 | |
it creates the disincentives for
schools to have these children with | 1:24:13 | 1:24:17 | |
care plans, though they have to take
them. And of course having a child | 1:24:17 | 1:24:21 | |
at home, trying to educate them, has
a massive impact on families, | 1:24:21 | 1:24:27 | |
parents trying to work, on the
children themselves. As you have | 1:24:27 | 1:24:31 | |
heard this morning, a lot of
families getting in touch with us | 1:24:31 | 1:24:34 | |
have said this is not their choice.
Home education can be a positive | 1:24:34 | 1:24:38 | |
choice for some families. But a lot
of people are telling us that is not | 1:24:38 | 1:24:46 | |
what it was like for them. It has
impacted their ability to work. If | 1:24:46 | 1:24:51 | |
you work, you need to be there. Home
educated children are involved in a | 1:24:51 | 1:24:56 | |
lot of activities. Emily, who you
saw, goes to science club, | 1:24:56 | 1:25:00 | |
alternative provision for one day a
week, film club. Her mother is | 1:25:00 | 1:25:04 | |
desperately trying to find things
for her to do. And to manage it to | 1:25:04 | 1:25:08 | |
support her education. But it is
tough on families. And, as I say, we | 1:25:08 | 1:25:13 | |
are inundated with messages. Thank
you very much. You are doing | 1:25:13 | 1:25:17 | |
Facebook live later. We want to hear
the good, bad and ugly to see who | 1:25:17 | 1:25:22 | |
has made a difference for them. If
they have been through the system, | 1:25:22 | 1:25:26 | |
how can they help someone with a
young child? Everyone has | 1:25:26 | 1:25:30 | |
expectations of how their child
should... A child arrives. They have | 1:25:30 | 1:25:34 | |
additional needs and then suddenly
you are thrust into a world of | 1:25:34 | 1:25:37 | |
having to navigate a very
complicated system. You can put your | 1:25:37 | 1:25:41 | |
questions later on on Facebook. Just
a couple of comments. Lou says, I | 1:25:41 | 1:25:47 | |
fought to keep my children in
mainstream school. They have a full | 1:25:47 | 1:25:51 | |
statement. They have done the entire
school career. The school used the | 1:25:51 | 1:25:55 | |
funds not for one-on-one but to fund
a class teaching assistant to help a | 1:25:55 | 1:25:59 | |
number of children who are not with
statements and since being in | 1:25:59 | 1:26:03 | |
secondary school teachers lack any
understanding of their needs. | 1:26:03 | 1:26:06 | |
Nicholas as we took our daughter out
of school, she has ASD, dyslexia and | 1:26:06 | 1:26:12 | |
selectively mute, we tried two
schools, who could not meet her | 1:26:12 | 1:26:18 | |
needs, and I feel the budget was the
heart of any decisions made not to | 1:26:18 | 1:26:22 | |
support her at school. So many have
you told us your stories, similar | 1:26:22 | 1:26:26 | |
stories, different stories as well.
Thank you very much indeed. We are | 1:26:26 | 1:26:30 | |
talking through this through the
week. | 1:26:30 | 1:26:32 | |
Later in the hour,
we will have a report | 1:26:32 | 1:26:34 | |
from Jayne McCubbin,
who has been given rare access | 1:26:34 | 1:26:37 | |
inside a special school
in Manchester, to see how | 1:26:37 | 1:26:39 | |
they are coping with increasing
demand on the system. | 1:26:39 | 1:26:42 | |
If you want to get in contact
with your stories, you can do | 1:26:42 | 1:26:45 | |
so by emailing us at
| 1:26:45 | 1:26:47 | |
or you can tweet us using
the hashtag #BBCsend. | 1:26:47 | 1:26:51 | |
There are loads of extra videos on
our social media accounts as well. | 1:26:51 | 1:30:14 | |
That's all for now, but we'll be
back in half an hour. | 1:30:14 | 1:30:17 | |
There's more on our website
at the usual address. | 1:30:17 | 1:30:20 | |
For now, it's back
to Dan and Louise. | 1:30:20 | 1:30:21 | |
Hello, this is Breakfast
with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin. | 1:30:23 | 1:30:29 | |
Here's a summary of this morning's
main stories from BBC News: | 1:30:29 | 1:30:32 | |
Authorities in Bali have warned that
a volcano on the island | 1:30:32 | 1:30:35 | |
is in imminent danger
of a full-scale eruption. | 1:30:35 | 1:30:37 | |
Mount Agung has been
sending clouds of thick ash | 1:30:37 | 1:30:40 | |
and smoke thousands of feet
into the air since Saturday. | 1:30:40 | 1:30:43 | |
The airport has been closed
and locals have been ordered | 1:30:43 | 1:30:45 | |
to leave their homes. | 1:30:45 | 1:30:52 | |
These are pictures live coming to us
from Bali of the volcano. | 1:30:52 | 1:30:58 | |
You can see the clouds above the
bowl Kane, loads of ash has been | 1:30:58 | 1:31:02 | |
coming out of mount a gun for the
last few days, since Saturday and | 1:31:02 | 1:31:07 | |
thousands of people have been
removed from the evacuation zone | 1:31:07 | 1:31:12 | |
around that volcano -- volcano. | 1:31:12 | 1:31:18 | |
High-tech industries are set
to receive millions of pounds | 1:31:18 | 1:31:21 | |
in extra funding to boost
skills and create jobs. | 1:31:21 | 1:31:23 | |
It's part of the government's
Industrial Strategy, | 1:31:23 | 1:31:25 | |
which aims to increase economic
performance post-Brexit. | 1:31:25 | 1:31:30 | |
Sectors including robotics,
artificial intelligence and medical | 1:31:30 | 1:31:32 | |
research will be targeted,
but some critics say more should be | 1:31:32 | 1:31:35 | |
done to help traditional skills. | 1:31:35 | 1:31:36 | |
Theresa May has said the government
will fund the full cost of dealing | 1:31:36 | 1:31:40 | |
with the aftermath of the suicide
bombing at the Manchester Arena, | 1:31:40 | 1:31:43 | |
which killed 22 people in May. | 1:31:43 | 1:31:45 | |
It comes after the Mayor
of Greater Manchester, | 1:31:45 | 1:31:47 | |
Andy Burnham, said the government's
initial offer was £5 million too | 1:31:47 | 1:31:50 | |
low and estimated that £28
million would be needed. | 1:31:50 | 1:31:52 | |
Councils in England generated
£819 million in profit | 1:31:52 | 1:31:54 | |
from parking fees and fines
during the last financial year, | 1:31:54 | 1:31:57 | |
that's 10% higher than
in the previous one. | 1:31:57 | 1:31:59 | |
Figures obtained by the RAC
Foundation showed four | 1:31:59 | 1:32:01 | |
of the five
councils with the largest | 1:32:01 | 1:32:03 | |
surplus were in London. | 1:32:03 | 1:32:05 | |
The Local Government Association
said income from parking went | 1:32:05 | 1:32:07 | |
towards essential transport
projects and repairs. | 1:32:07 | 1:32:19 | |
We will have all the weather with
Matt later. This might be a | 1:32:19 | 1:32:24 | |
surprise, Matt was saying it's the
mildest morning of the week, it will | 1:32:24 | 1:32:28 | |
get much colder. Unseasonably cold.
Thursday is the beast so wrapped up | 1:32:28 | 1:32:33 | |
warm for that. | 1:32:33 | 1:32:35 | |
We also have Ashes test number two
to look forward to -- wrap up. | 1:32:35 | 1:32:40 | |
Nobody expected England to win the
first one. Exactly. Shall we get | 1:32:40 | 1:32:46 | |
through it? I need to talk to you
about head butts later as well. I | 1:32:46 | 1:32:50 | |
have some information on the head
butt later as well. | 1:32:50 | 1:32:58 | |
England lost the first
Test in Brisbane. | 1:32:58 | 1:33:00 | |
Australia got the runs they needed
easily without losing a wicket. | 1:33:00 | 1:33:03 | |
So despite some promising moments
along the way they were comfortably | 1:33:03 | 1:33:06 | |
beaten in the end. | 1:33:06 | 1:33:10 | |
They go 1-0 down in
the five match series. | 1:33:10 | 1:33:14 | |
David Warner and Cameron Bancroft
both made half centuries | 1:33:14 | 1:33:16 | |
as they reached 173
without losing a wicket. | 1:33:16 | 1:33:18 | |
I think the most important thing
is we stay strong and tight | 1:33:18 | 1:33:22 | |
as a group of players and as a squad
and we continue to keep doing | 1:33:22 | 1:33:26 | |
the hard work we have done
throughout the whole trip. | 1:33:26 | 1:33:28 | |
For three days we played
some excellent cricket. | 1:33:28 | 1:33:31 | |
Unfortunately when we got into good
positions we didn't quite capitalise | 1:33:31 | 1:33:34 | |
on that and if we'd done
that we would have seen a very | 1:33:34 | 1:33:37 | |
different scoreboard
sat here right now. | 1:33:37 | 1:33:39 | |
I think this team has the potential
to do some really good things | 1:33:39 | 1:33:42 | |
and we'll have to continue to play
really good cricket. | 1:33:42 | 1:33:45 | |
Adelaide wicket might bring some
of their bowlers into the game | 1:33:45 | 1:33:48 | |
a little bit but having said that,
it's probably one of the quickest | 1:33:48 | 1:33:52 | |
wickets in the country. | 1:33:52 | 1:33:53 | |
Our sports correspondent Andy Swiss
is in Brisbane for us. | 1:33:53 | 1:33:55 | |
Good morning, Andy. | 1:33:55 | 1:33:56 | |
We were expecting the defeat
going into the fifth day but another | 1:33:56 | 1:34:00 | |
story has emerged
involving Jonny Bairstow. | 1:34:00 | 1:34:02 | |
What's behind that? | 1:34:02 | 1:34:09 | |
Yes, Sally, as you say the big
talking point today wasn't really | 1:34:09 | 1:34:12 | |
the cricket but the details that
emerged of this incident in a bar in | 1:34:12 | 1:34:16 | |
Perth four weeks ago involving Jonny
Bairstow and also the Australian | 1:34:16 | 1:34:23 | |
batsman Cameron Bancroft, who scored
the winning runs in today's and at. | 1:34:23 | 1:34:28 | |
Both players had their say today,
both players agreed there was no | 1:34:28 | 1:34:33 | |
malice in what happened, but Cameron
Bancroft said that what Jonny | 1:34:33 | 1:34:38 | |
Bairstow had done was unusual,
particularly his way of saying | 1:34:38 | 1:34:42 | |
hello. | 1:34:42 | 1:34:48 | |
Just greeted me with a head-butt. I
was expecting a handshake but wasn't | 1:34:48 | 1:34:53 | |
the greeting of choice I was
expecting. That was the way that I | 1:34:53 | 1:34:57 | |
took it. There was certainly no
malice in his action and we | 1:34:57 | 1:35:02 | |
continued on having very good
conversations. | 1:35:02 | 1:35:05 | |
We were just in the bar having
a good laugh and a good evening out. | 1:35:05 | 1:35:09 | |
It was very enjoyable. | 1:35:09 | 1:35:10 | |
Cameron and I enjoyed the evening
and continue to do so. | 1:35:10 | 1:35:13 | |
No intent or malice about anything
during the evening. | 1:35:13 | 1:35:28 | |
The England Cricket board said there
will be no action against Jonny | 1:35:28 | 1:35:32 | |
Bairstow but this is the last thing
they need particularly given the | 1:35:32 | 1:35:35 | |
ongoing controversy around Ben
Stokes, who isn't here, and it | 1:35:35 | 1:35:39 | |
raises more questions about the
behaviour of the England players and | 1:35:39 | 1:35:43 | |
it distracts from their issues on
the field and they've got plenty of | 1:35:43 | 1:35:46 | |
those because although they were
competitive for the first three days | 1:35:46 | 1:35:49 | |
they were really blown away
yesterday, a ten wicket victory is | 1:35:49 | 1:35:54 | |
pretty emphatic. England have lots
of things to look at, not least | 1:35:54 | 1:35:58 | |
getting their batsmen to transfer
good starts into big score is | 1:35:58 | 1:36:04 | |
because Steve Smith's 141 not out,
the Australian captain, that was the | 1:36:04 | 1:36:08 | |
difference between the two sides and
they don't have long to think about | 1:36:08 | 1:36:11 | |
it because the next test starts in
Adelaide on Saturday. Andy, lovely | 1:36:11 | 1:36:15 | |
to talk to you and see you. Talk to
you shortly. Andy Swiss in Brisbane. | 1:36:15 | 1:36:21 | |
In terms press conferences, the
cricket press conferences over the | 1:36:21 | 1:36:25 | |
last 24 hours have been so funny.
The transcript is brilliant. It is | 1:36:25 | 1:36:30 | |
here on my phone, this is Cameron
Bancroft, he was asked, when we | 1:36:30 | 1:36:34 | |
imagine a head-butt, we imagine,
another journalist motions a | 1:36:34 | 1:36:39 | |
head-butt, knocking someone over and
he said, he didn't knock me over, | 1:36:39 | 1:36:43 | |
I've got the heaviest head in the
Western Australia squad, it's been | 1:36:43 | 1:36:47 | |
measured, there's an actual
measurement, so I took the blow well | 1:36:47 | 1:36:50 | |
and I moved on. It was a good hit,
let's move on. He said there was no | 1:36:50 | 1:36:56 | |
malice, it's hard to imagine a
head-butt without... You don't | 1:36:56 | 1:37:00 | |
playfully head-butt. Head-butt as a
greeting perhaps? That's what | 1:37:00 | 1:37:05 | |
dinosaurs used to do and it didn't
go well for them! Let's move the | 1:37:05 | 1:37:09 | |
football. | 1:37:09 | 1:37:10 | |
Manchester City manager
Pep Guardiola has prasied his | 1:37:10 | 1:37:12 | |
players as they came from behind
against Huddersfield to continue | 1:37:12 | 1:37:15 | |
thier their unbeaten run at the top
of the Premier League. | 1:37:15 | 1:37:18 | |
Raheem Sterling was the match winner
for City with just six | 1:37:18 | 1:37:21 | |
minutes left in the game. | 1:37:21 | 1:37:22 | |
Their lead at the top of the table
now eight points over rivals | 1:37:22 | 1:37:26 | |
Manchester United. | 1:37:26 | 1:37:27 | |
Impossible to win every game easy
because the Premier League | 1:37:27 | 1:37:29 | |
is so tough. | 1:37:29 | 1:37:40 | |
Today may be one of the best
examples how much of | 1:37:40 | 1:37:43 | |
a Premier League game
it was today. | 1:37:43 | 1:37:45 | |
The guys competed amazingly
so that's why we won | 1:37:45 | 1:37:47 | |
and we're still there. | 1:37:47 | 1:37:48 | |
Everton are two points off
the Premier League relegation zone | 1:37:48 | 1:37:51 | |
after suffering another heavy defeat
under caretaker manager | 1:37:51 | 1:37:53 | |
David Unsworth, they lost 4-1
to Southampton yesterday. | 1:37:53 | 1:37:56 | |
Charlie Austin scored two
second-half headers before | 1:37:56 | 1:37:57 | |
Steven Davis beat Jordan Pickford
from the edge of the box to wrap | 1:37:57 | 1:38:01 | |
up the victory. | 1:38:01 | 1:38:02 | |
Everton have won just once in seven
games under Unsworth. | 1:38:02 | 1:38:05 | |
It's killing me. | 1:38:05 | 1:38:05 | |
It's really tough. | 1:38:05 | 1:38:06 | |
But the situation's been tough
for a while so I have to take | 1:38:06 | 1:38:10 | |
responsibility and I will,
I'll stand here and take | 1:38:10 | 1:38:12 | |
responsibility as manager,
but we've all got to | 1:38:12 | 1:38:14 | |
take our responsibility as well. | 1:38:14 | 1:38:16 | |
It's tough at the moment,
we're in a tough place. | 1:38:16 | 1:38:19 | |
Things have to change quickly. | 1:38:19 | 1:38:26 | |
Arsenal move up to fourth
in the table after a controversial | 1:38:26 | 1:38:29 | |
injury-time penalty
against Burnley at Turf Moor. | 1:38:29 | 1:38:30 | |
Alexis Sanchez scored the goal
that moves them ahead | 1:38:30 | 1:38:33 | |
of North London rivals Tottenham. | 1:38:33 | 1:38:41 | |
Celtic have won their fourth
domestic trophy in a row | 1:38:41 | 1:38:44 | |
as they retained the Scottish League
Cup this afternoon beating | 1:38:44 | 1:38:46 | |
Motherwell 2-1. | 1:38:46 | 1:38:47 | |
James Forrest scored the first
for Celtic just after the break | 1:38:47 | 1:38:50 | |
and they doubled their lead
with a controversial penalty that | 1:38:50 | 1:38:53 | |
saw Motherwell defender
Cedric Kipre sent off. | 1:38:53 | 1:38:55 | |
Celtic go 65 domestic
games now without defeat. | 1:38:55 | 1:39:00 | |
Hibernian completed the cup double
for the second year running | 1:39:00 | 1:39:03 | |
with a 3-0 victory over Glasgow City
in the Women's Scottish Cup final. | 1:39:03 | 1:39:16 | |
Valtteri Bottas took the honours
ahead of Mercedes team-mate | 1:39:16 | 1:39:19 | |
Lewis Hamilton in the final race | 1:39:19 | 1:39:20 | |
of the Formula 1 season in Abu
Dhabi. | 1:39:20 | 1:39:23 | |
The Finn completed
the hat-trick of pole position, | 1:39:23 | 1:39:25 | |
fastest lap and race win
as he claimed his third victory | 1:39:25 | 1:39:28 | |
of the year. | 1:39:28 | 1:39:29 | |
Sebastian Vettel finished third
which was enough to secure | 1:39:29 | 1:39:31 | |
the German the runners up spot
in the drivers' Championship, | 1:39:31 | 1:39:34 | |
which Hamilton had already won. | 1:39:34 | 1:39:41 | |
Interesting, isn't it, in that race
we know what happened, we know | 1:39:41 | 1:39:46 | |
Hamilton has done it and it's a
little bit of an anti-climax. There | 1:39:46 | 1:39:51 | |
you go, they still sprayed champagne
and enjoyed it. People over the | 1:39:51 | 1:39:55 | |
weekend were wondering about Pep's
yellow ribbon, it's about imprisoned | 1:39:55 | 1:40:03 | |
Catalan officials. Yellow ribbons
are traditionally about supporting | 1:40:03 | 1:40:06 | |
troops but he has gone for it for
that reason. Shall we have a look at | 1:40:06 | 1:40:12 | |
some of the front pages? Or shall we
talk about dad-dancing? Dad-dancing. | 1:40:12 | 1:40:18 | |
We often talk about endangered
species and this is one that hasn't | 1:40:18 | 1:40:21 | |
yet been filmed by Attenborough, the
dancing British male. A survey for | 1:40:21 | 1:40:26 | |
BBC Radio 5 Live has found three
quarters of men either never dance | 1:40:26 | 1:40:30 | |
at all or do so rarely and most of
that is down to embarrassment. I | 1:40:30 | 1:40:34 | |
think that's a great shame! In a bid
to reverse the worrying trend we dug | 1:40:34 | 1:40:40 | |
through the archives and found some
blokes who still like to Pepboogy, | 1:40:40 | 1:40:43 | |
and if teammates -- boogy -- if
teenagers are watching then maybe | 1:40:43 | 1:40:50 | |
your dad is in this video and you
might find it disturbing! | 1:40:50 | 1:40:54 | |
Do I dance? No. There you go. I've
got to a certain age and I'm allowed | 1:41:06 | 1:41:11 | |
to dad dance and I make the most of
it at every opportunity. Can be a | 1:41:11 | 1:41:16 | |
bit embarrassing at times but it's
all good fun. | 1:41:16 | 1:41:22 | |
I wouldn't be a dad
if I wasn't dancing. | 1:41:23 | 1:41:26 | |
I see a lot of people doing it. | 1:41:26 | 1:41:28 | |
I like it. | 1:41:28 | 1:41:28 | |
Been known to move in
a dancing sort of fashion. | 1:41:28 | 1:41:31 | |
Very pretty. | 1:41:31 | 1:41:32 | |
What do you think? | 1:41:32 | 1:41:33 | |
Bad. | 1:41:33 | 1:41:33 | |
I'm sexy and I know it. | 1:41:33 | 1:41:40 | |
I just think it's all great. | 1:41:48 | 1:41:52 | |
You like to throw a few shapes? I'm
not saying I'm good at dancing but I | 1:41:52 | 1:41:57 | |
like it. Enjoyment is the key. We've
been asking to see your videos. | 1:41:57 | 1:42:03 | |
Thank you, Tracy from North
Yorkshire has sent this classic. | 1:42:03 | 1:42:06 | |
This is her her and her husband
dancing to Michael Jackson's | 1:42:06 | 1:42:12 | |
Thriller. In the PJs as well.
Absolutely brilliant! Good job! I | 1:42:12 | 1:42:22 | |
was talking to you about the power
of the kitchen disco. Some friends | 1:42:22 | 1:42:26 | |
of mine do Monday night disco in the
kitchen. It just cheers you up, | 1:42:26 | 1:42:31 | |
doesn't it? A pyjama zombie is going
to put a smile on anyone's face. | 1:42:31 | 1:42:37 | |
Thanks for sending that in, we would
love to see more videos. Send us | 1:42:37 | 1:42:46 | |
those videos on Twitter or by
e-mail. I think dad-dancing is | 1:42:46 | 1:42:51 | |
fantastic. Just dancing generally is
the way to go. You don't need to be | 1:42:51 | 1:42:56 | |
good at it!
High-tech industries from | 1:42:56 | 1:43:00 | |
pharmaceuticals to robotics to
engineering are to receive a boost | 1:43:00 | 1:43:04 | |
in funding and training. The
government believes the sector will | 1:43:04 | 1:43:06 | |
provide the best chance to improve
economic performance post-Brexit. | 1:43:06 | 1:43:12 | |
Sean is at a factory that makes
production lines for other | 1:43:12 | 1:43:16 | |
factories. Good morning.
That's effectively what they do. | 1:43:16 | 1:43:21 | |
These guys will be working on
machinery here that other businesses | 1:43:21 | 1:43:25 | |
will look to use and implement on
their floor. These huge chunks of | 1:43:25 | 1:43:30 | |
metal which have been very finely
designed have been printed by a 3D | 1:43:30 | 1:43:36 | |
printer, which started with an alloy
powder in it, the next thing you | 1:43:36 | 1:43:41 | |
know there's a huge hunk of it very
intricately designed so it can go in | 1:43:41 | 1:43:46 | |
aeroplanes and cars around the
world, there is an example of a 3D | 1:43:46 | 1:43:51 | |
printer with some plastic in the
middle of it. This is part of the | 1:43:51 | 1:43:55 | |
industrial strategy the government
wants to see implemented so we have | 1:43:55 | 1:43:58 | |
much more of this in many different
sectors bringing together skills, | 1:43:58 | 1:44:03 | |
people, investment in business
around the country and the key part | 1:44:03 | 1:44:06 | |
of people is apprentices and we can
talk to a couple now. This is | 1:44:06 | 1:44:10 | |
Ritchie and Gemma. Ritchie, you're
coming to the end of your | 1:44:10 | 1:44:14 | |
apprenticeship at the Manufacturing
technology centre, what got you into | 1:44:14 | 1:44:18 | |
this kind of thing? I was finishing
my A-levels and I came across the | 1:44:18 | 1:44:24 | |
company. I didn't know state of the
places like this existed around here | 1:44:24 | 1:44:30 | |
and I met with the manager and he
told me about the apprenticeship and | 1:44:30 | 1:44:35 | |
I applied straightaway really. I was
either going to go to university and | 1:44:35 | 1:44:39 | |
do engineering or do an
apprenticeship and I thought this | 1:44:39 | 1:44:42 | |
would be the best route. Gemma, when
you were looking at what you might | 1:44:42 | 1:44:47 | |
do next, what was the deciding
factor between university or a | 1:44:47 | 1:44:51 | |
college or hear? The key factor was
the debt really. You can do your HNC | 1:44:51 | 1:44:58 | |
and then your HND and a degree if
you want to, but you don't get into | 1:44:58 | 1:45:06 | |
any debt, which is big for people of
a younger generation. You still come | 1:45:06 | 1:45:10 | |
out with skills that you feel you
can use? Yeah, it's more hands-on | 1:45:10 | 1:45:15 | |
compare to uni, it is more theory
side and a lot of people do learn | 1:45:15 | 1:45:21 | |
better with more hands-on
experience, especially in a workshop | 1:45:21 | 1:45:24 | |
and a working environment, you get a
feel for how it is. | 1:45:24 | 1:45:32 | |
Do you feel you are working with the
latest technology and it is | 1:45:32 | 1:45:36 | |
something we all have to get | 1:45:36 | 1:45:37 | |
latest technology and it is
something we all have to get used | 1:45:37 | 1:45:38 | |
to? Absolutely, we have things not
even in the industry yet so we are | 1:45:38 | 1:45:42 | |
at the forefront of manufacturing
and it is exciting to work with | 1:45:42 | 1:45:45 | |
these kind of things before they are
even out. Yes. This is what we will | 1:45:45 | 1:45:50 | |
look at. There is a pineapple behind
you. I don't know why. Can this all | 1:45:50 | 1:45:55 | |
be executed, Nick Davies, from the
institute for government? You look | 1:45:55 | 1:45:59 | |
at how government functions. They
have Brexit to sort out. Are you | 1:45:59 | 1:46:04 | |
convinced a big industrial strategy
to get investment in can be | 1:46:04 | 1:46:09 | |
executed? I think it will be very
difficult. Implementing Brexit is | 1:46:09 | 1:46:14 | |
probably the biggest peacetime
challenge the civil service has | 1:46:14 | 1:46:18 | |
faced. Department is already
extremely stretched. It is a very | 1:46:18 | 1:46:22 | |
good question about how what is
hopefully going to be an ambitious | 1:46:22 | 1:46:25 | |
industrial strategy is going to be
implemented and the other Brexit | 1:46:25 | 1:46:30 | |
issue is an effective industrial
strategy should be taking a view on | 1:46:30 | 1:46:34 | |
the opportunities of what a pose
Brexit world will look like that is | 1:46:34 | 1:46:38 | |
difficult to know before we know
what the final trading relationship | 1:46:38 | 1:46:42 | |
is going to be -- post Brexit. Thank
you. I am not sure what this chap is | 1:46:42 | 1:46:46 | |
up to. It is the height of
technology, I am sure, you can see. | 1:46:46 | 1:46:50 | |
He is cleaning something at the
moment. We will have a look later | 1:46:50 | 1:46:55 | |
this morning, much more high-tech
than this. There is plenty going on | 1:46:55 | 1:46:59 | |
around here. There are some little
helper robots, which I am keen to | 1:46:59 | 1:47:04 | |
learn from later on, and I know Dan
will be particularly excited about | 1:47:04 | 1:47:08 | |
that. I genuinely cannot wait. Thank
you. It went so well last time, | 1:47:08 | 1:47:13 | |
didn't it? Yes, I think he might be.
If you are a regular, you might | 1:47:13 | 1:47:19 | |
remember last week. There was an
issue with a robot. Yes, it didn't | 1:47:19 | 1:47:24 | |
work. This time it will, hopefully.
Matt has a look at the weather and | 1:47:24 | 1:47:29 | |
it is raining in London? Certainly
it is, good morning. A wet start to | 1:47:29 | 1:47:34 | |
Monday morning across southern
counties of England, but it is | 1:47:34 | 1:47:38 | |
comparatively mild, 11 in Brighton,
for degrees in Aberdeen. But | 1:47:38 | 1:47:44 | |
wherever you are, temperatures this
week are on the | 1:47:44 | 1:47:46 | |
wherever you are, temperatures this
week are on the slide. Let's have | 1:47:46 | 1:47:47 | |
look at the forecast. The week will
be typified by the word cold, below | 1:47:47 | 1:47:52 | |
where temperature should be this
time of year. Sunshine and showers | 1:47:52 | 1:47:55 | |
for much of the week, today is
wettest of all widely, wettest | 1:47:55 | 1:47:59 | |
across southern counties of England
with a cold front introducing cold | 1:47:59 | 1:48:03 | |
air to the UK through much of the
day and that means we have outbreaks | 1:48:03 | 1:48:07 | |
of rain through the west of the --
rest of the rush-hour into | 1:48:07 | 1:48:11 | |
southernmost counties of England. It
is brightening up in Wales, the | 1:48:11 | 1:48:15 | |
Midlands and northwards of that.
Showers to go with it, the odd heavy | 1:48:15 | 1:48:19 | |
one, and over the hills of northern
Scotland, some sleet and snow too. A | 1:48:19 | 1:48:26 | |
chilly start here. Temperatures
higher than the rest of the week at | 1:48:26 | 1:48:29 | |
this time of the morning. Strong
winds in the north-east of Scotland, | 1:48:29 | 1:48:34 | |
50- 60 mph gusts, it will be raw
feeling, with showers turning | 1:48:34 | 1:48:41 | |
increasingly wintry. Elsewhere,
sunshine and showers foremost into | 1:48:41 | 1:48:45 | |
the afternoon with one or two
showers through the afternoon. | 1:48:45 | 1:48:48 | |
Sunshine in between, the best of
which is in eastern areas, the | 1:48:48 | 1:48:52 | |
wettest in the Channel Islands with
the cold front here to finish the | 1:48:52 | 1:48:56 | |
day. In the afternoon double figures
in the Channel Islands. The rest of | 1:48:56 | 1:49:00 | |
us, though, the highest, this
morning, dropping into single | 1:49:00 | 1:49:04 | |
figures. That will take us into a
cold night. Into the far south-west, | 1:49:04 | 1:49:09 | |
we will see heavy rain for a time
before that clears. Then overnight | 1:49:09 | 1:49:14 | |
showers across northern and western
areas mainly into coastal counties. | 1:49:14 | 1:49:19 | |
Inland it will be dry, clear and
chilly. A touch and frost -- a touch | 1:49:19 | 1:49:24 | |
of frost here and there. Most places
starting just above freezing. Don't | 1:49:24 | 1:49:28 | |
be fooled. It will be colder than
that with the cold wind. It will be | 1:49:28 | 1:49:33 | |
a bright start UK wide. Showers for
northern and western areas | 1:49:33 | 1:49:38 | |
initially. Tomorrow, fewer showers
around | 1:49:38 | 1:49:40 | |
initially. Tomorrow, fewer showers
around, unless you are in some parts | 1:49:40 | 1:49:44 | |
of England. It could be heavy with
hail and thunder and sleet and snow | 1:49:44 | 1:49:48 | |
mixed in. And we have wind strongest
tomorrow, touching gale force at | 1:49:48 | 1:49:53 | |
times, making it feel particularly
raw, temperatures much closer to | 1:49:53 | 1:49:57 | |
freezing with the wind factored in.
But for many of you it will be dry | 1:49:57 | 1:50:01 | |
and sunny in south-west Scotland,
the Midlands, southern England, the | 1:50:01 | 1:50:05 | |
same on Wednesday, these are the
brightest areas with showers | 1:50:05 | 1:50:09 | |
frequently eastern England. Into
Wednesday, we still have the cold | 1:50:09 | 1:50:13 | |
wind which will add to the chill
through the day and, if anything, | 1:50:13 | 1:50:16 | |
temperatures drop on Thursday. UK
wide, highs of three or four | 1:50:16 | 1:50:24 | |
degrees, adding the windchill it
will be colder than that and to put | 1:50:24 | 1:50:27 | |
it into perspective at this time of
year we are usually looking at | 1:50:27 | 1:50:31 | |
temperatures ranging from seven or
eight in Aberdeen to around ten in | 1:50:31 | 1:50:34 | |
London. So, yes, it is a cold week
in store. Thank you very much | 1:50:34 | 1:50:38 | |
indeed. We will be prepared with
hats, coats, gloves and everything | 1:50:38 | 1:50:42 | |
else. Thank you. We were not
ignoring Matt. We were distracted by | 1:50:42 | 1:50:48 | |
our next guest. | 1:50:48 | 1:50:51 | |
If your child has a book
on their Christmas wish list this | 1:50:51 | 1:50:54 | |
year, it could very well have been
written by our next guest. | 1:50:54 | 1:50:58 | |
It's a decade since, David Walliams,
published his first children's novel | 1:50:58 | 1:51:01 | |
and in that time he's sold millions
of copies world-wide. | 1:51:01 | 1:51:03 | |
From gangsta grannies to demon
dentists, he's already introduced us | 1:51:03 | 1:51:06 | |
to an eclectic mix of characters. | 1:51:06 | 1:51:08 | |
And David joins us now to tell us
about his newest additions, | 1:51:08 | 1:51:11 | |
Bad Dad and Boogie Bear. | 1:51:11 | 1:51:12 | |
You have to make more books out, Bad
Dad and Boogie Bear. Bad Dad is for | 1:51:12 | 1:51:19 | |
the children, and a picture book
with Tony Watt, that is called | 1:51:19 | 1:51:23 | |
Boogie Bear, children who are three
or four. Ten years ago, when you | 1:51:23 | 1:51:27 | |
started writing... Even more. That
is correct. If someone came to you | 1:51:27 | 1:51:33 | |
and said in a decade you will have
the top five kids | 1:51:33 | 1:51:37 | |
and said in a decade you will have
the top five kids books in the | 1:51:37 | 1:51:38 | |
country, they will be yours, people
will be reading your books in huge | 1:51:38 | 1:51:41 | |
volumes and writing will basically
take over your career, would you | 1:51:41 | 1:51:45 | |
have believed anybody? I thought I
was going to have more success, to | 1:51:45 | 1:51:50 | |
be honest with you.
LAUGHTER | 1:51:50 | 1:51:52 | |
no, everything takes me by surprise
and I pinch myself every day how | 1:51:52 | 1:51:56 | |
lucky I am.
It felt like some kind of offshoot | 1:51:56 | 1:51:59 | |
from Little Britain and then I wrote
this book called Boy in a Dress, | 1:51:59 | 1:52:08 | |
which we explored in the show, and
it was a modest success, not an | 1:52:08 | 1:52:13 | |
immediate success, not like Gangsta
Granny, then I had an audience of | 1:52:13 | 1:52:20 | |
kids who were not interested in me
as a TV personality but as an | 1:52:20 | 1:52:24 | |
author. And some of these children
are starting to read because of your | 1:52:24 | 1:52:27 | |
books. I just want to make the books
entertaining. I know how important | 1:52:27 | 1:52:31 | |
it is to get children reading. It is
so important. If they read great | 1:52:31 | 1:52:36 | |
literature, fantastic. It is
important that they read something. | 1:52:36 | 1:52:39 | |
If you don't read as a child, you
generally don't read as an adult. | 1:52:39 | 1:52:43 | |
And you meet many adults who don't
read books and think they are | 1:52:43 | 1:52:48 | |
boring. Lots of children who read
your books might be watching now and | 1:52:48 | 1:52:52 | |
you will come to chat later on. Yes,
if you want, I can stay and not go | 1:52:52 | 1:52:57 | |
away, have a little kip while you
carry on the show. Can you do the | 1:52:57 | 1:53:01 | |
sport? I know nothing about sport.
If you have to go to school and you | 1:53:01 | 1:53:05 | |
have a question, send it through and
watch the answers later on on | 1:53:05 | 1:53:09 | |
iPlayer. That was clever.
Interesting, Boy in a Dress seems a | 1:53:09 | 1:53:16 | |
head of its time. A lot has happened
in ten years. Hasn't it? The issues | 1:53:16 | 1:53:22 | |
coming back. And you have been
dealing with it on this show. Yes, | 1:53:22 | 1:53:27 | |
it was interestingly prophetic in a
way. And actually there was quite a | 1:53:27 | 1:53:33 | |
lot of resistance at the time to the
theme of the book was on people who | 1:53:33 | 1:53:37 | |
felt it was, I don't know, too
difficult for children's book. Now | 1:53:37 | 1:53:42 | |
it is a much bigger thing and it is
in most schools in the country, | 1:53:42 | 1:53:46 | |
there is someone dealing with the
issue of that sort. Have you -- as | 1:53:46 | 1:53:54 | |
you say you know nothing about
sport... Yes, well, there you go. I | 1:53:54 | 1:53:58 | |
hope you would ensure that! And on
TV this Christmas you've got | 1:53:58 | 1:54:06 | |
Ratburgers on Sky. And Grampa's
Great Escape with Sheridan Saunders. | 1:54:06 | 1:54:12 | |
And Sheridan Smith. In Ratburgers.
Tell us a little bit about the Bad | 1:54:12 | 1:54:18 | |
Dad story. That is about a boy who
finds out his father is a getaway | 1:54:18 | 1:54:22 | |
driver for a bank robbery. He has to
get his father out of prison for one | 1:54:22 | 1:54:28 | |
night to put the money back into the
bank that was stolen. So it is a | 1:54:28 | 1:54:32 | |
story about good and bad and making
the right choices in life. There is | 1:54:32 | 1:54:36 | |
often a moral theme running through
things in the book. Yes. | 1:54:36 | 1:54:39 | |
Deliberately so. It is important to
have something to say if you are | 1:54:39 | 1:54:44 | |
going to take kids on a journey.
Some kids may take weeks or months | 1:54:44 | 1:54:48 | |
to read it. At the end of it I hope
there is something to take away from | 1:54:48 | 1:54:52 | |
it. This is about trying to make the
right choices in life. One of my | 1:54:52 | 1:54:56 | |
favourite characters is Gangsta
Granny. Thank you. It was based on | 1:54:56 | 1:55:02 | |
you. Thanks, not yet. I am joking.
That is the most successful book and | 1:55:02 | 1:55:08 | |
it is the one that really took off.
I don't know if it was the title or | 1:55:08 | 1:55:13 | |
the story or whatever it was. It has
been a fantastic success and it | 1:55:13 | 1:55:17 | |
carries on. And I think that story
had for the first time, I think I | 1:55:17 | 1:55:22 | |
had all of the elements are needed,
it was an adventure story with | 1:55:22 | 1:55:25 | |
humour, sadness and I think for some
reason it just took off. Luiz you a | 1:55:25 | 1:55:32 | |
lovely compliment and you just
screwed it up and shoved it back | 1:55:32 | 1:55:36 | |
into her face. -- Louise. I am
sorry, I am just trying to be funny, | 1:55:36 | 1:55:42 | |
jeez! We might have to change the
running order. Fine by me. I've got | 1:55:42 | 1:55:48 | |
a busy day! It is really lovely to
see you. Bad Dad is the book and you | 1:55:48 | 1:55:56 | |
will be back in about one hour's
time. We would love to talk about | 1:55:56 | 1:56:00 | |
Roald Dahl, your hero. Yes, let's
slap the sofa. Yes, don't touch the | 1:56:00 | 1:59:23 | |
That's all for now, but we'll be
back in half an hour. | 1:59:23 | 1:59:26 | |
There's more on our website
at the usual address. | 1:59:26 | 1:59:28 | |
Bye-bye. | 1:59:28 | 1:59:29 | |
Hello this is Breakfast,
with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin. | 1:59:50 | 1:59:52 | |
Eruption imminent -
Bali's airport is closed leaving | 1:59:52 | 1:59:57 | |
thousands of tourists stranded,
as Mount Agung becomes | 1:59:57 | 1:59:58 | |
increasingly volatile,
with lava bubbling close | 1:59:58 | 2:00:00 | |
to the surface. | 2:00:00 | 2:00:02 | |
The area near the volcano is now
on the highest state of alert, | 2:00:02 | 2:00:05 | |
hundreds of thousands of people have
been moved into shelters. | 2:00:05 | 2:00:11 | |
Good morning it's Monday
the 27th of November. | 2:00:23 | 2:00:30 | |
Also this morning: | 2:00:30 | 2:00:37 | |
The five people killed when a stolen
car smashed into a tree | 2:00:37 | 2:00:40 | |
in Leeds are named -
three are children, | 2:00:40 | 2:00:42 | |
including two brothers. | 2:00:42 | 2:00:43 | |
Desperate measures -
fears that children with special | 2:00:43 | 2:00:45 | |
needs are being failed by the system
as a Breakfast investigation reveals | 2:00:45 | 2:00:48 | |
that increasing numbers of parents
are home educating. | 2:00:48 | 2:00:52 | |
good morning. The government
announces its big plans for our | 2:00:52 | 2:00:56 | |
economy today. I'm at this high tech
research Centre in Coventry to see | 2:00:56 | 2:01:00 | |
if plans for investment in the UK as
part of the industrial strategy will | 2:01:00 | 2:01:04 | |
work out. | 2:01:04 | 2:01:06 | |
In sport - England lose
the first Ashes Test, | 2:01:06 | 2:01:08 | |
Australia get the runs they needed
to win easily by ten | 2:01:08 | 2:01:10 | |
wickets in Brisbane. | 2:01:10 | 2:01:16 | |
I can use you. Use me? Yeah, use
you. | 2:01:16 | 2:01:23 | |
From comedian to one
of the country's best | 2:01:23 | 2:01:24 | |
loved children's authors,
David Walliams will be here to share | 2:01:24 | 2:01:27 | |
the secrets behind his success. | 2:01:27 | 2:01:28 | |
And Matt has the weather. | 2:01:28 | 2:01:33 | |
Good morning. Quite a wet and windy
start of the week. The view but it | 2:01:33 | 2:01:37 | |
is actually the milder start to the
morning this week. Cold weather set | 2:01:37 | 2:01:41 | |
to dominate. A full forecast is
coming up in 15 minutes. Thank you. | 2:01:41 | 2:01:50 | |
Good morning. | 2:01:50 | 2:01:51 | |
First, our main story. | 2:01:51 | 2:01:52 | |
Authorities in Bali have warned that
a volcano on the island | 2:01:52 | 2:01:55 | |
is in imminent danger
of a full-scale eruption. | 2:01:55 | 2:01:56 | |
Mount Agung has been
sending clouds of thick ash | 2:01:56 | 2:01:59 | |
and smoke thousands of feet
into the air since Saturday. | 2:01:59 | 2:02:01 | |
The airport has been closed
and locals have been ordered | 2:02:01 | 2:02:03 | |
to leave their homes. | 2:02:03 | 2:02:04 | |
Andrew Plant has the latest. | 2:02:04 | 2:02:07 | |
Bali's most sacred mountain,
an ancient volcano rumbling back | 2:02:07 | 2:02:11 | |
to life with billows of black smoke. | 2:02:11 | 2:02:15 | |
Mount Agung has been sleeping
for more than half a century, | 2:02:15 | 2:02:18 | |
now awake and angry. | 2:02:18 | 2:02:20 | |
Experts believe a major eruption
could be about to happen. | 2:02:20 | 2:02:26 | |
TRANSLATION: The volcano has entered
the magmatic eruption phase. | 2:02:26 | 2:02:29 | |
There is now the possibility
of a strong explosive eruption. | 2:02:29 | 2:02:35 | |
Those living nearby
were evacuated in September | 2:02:36 | 2:02:37 | |
at the first signs of activity. | 2:02:37 | 2:02:41 | |
Now the exclusion zone
is a circle 12 miles wide. | 2:02:41 | 2:02:45 | |
The thick ash rising thousands
of metres means many flights | 2:02:45 | 2:02:52 | |
to and from this popular tourist
destination have now been grounded. | 2:02:52 | 2:02:56 | |
All the flights were cancelled
so we're just now at the airport, | 2:02:56 | 2:02:59 | |
we don't know what we're doing
and we are trying to | 2:02:59 | 2:03:02 | |
find another flight. | 2:03:02 | 2:03:03 | |
In Bali, no one is
taking any chances. | 2:03:03 | 2:03:09 | |
More than 150,000 people
are in temporary shelters. | 2:03:09 | 2:03:10 | |
When the volcano last
erupted in 1963, more | 2:03:10 | 2:03:15 | |
than 1,000 people were killed. | 2:03:15 | 2:03:16 | |
This time the Indonesian government
says it is much better prepared. | 2:03:16 | 2:03:19 | |
Andrew Plant, BBC News. | 2:03:19 | 2:03:24 | |
There are fears children
with special needs are being let | 2:03:25 | 2:03:27 | |
down by the education system. | 2:03:27 | 2:03:32 | |
An exclusive investigation for BBC
Breakfast has found a 57% increase | 2:03:32 | 2:03:34 | |
in the number of children
being educated at home. | 2:03:34 | 2:03:37 | |
We have been told that some families
believe this is their only option. | 2:03:37 | 2:03:41 | |
Today, we launch a week long series
looking at what life is like for our | 2:03:41 | 2:03:45 | |
most vulnerable children. | 2:03:45 | 2:03:46 | |
In the first of our special reports,
our Education Editor Branwen | 2:03:46 | 2:03:49 | |
Jeffreys looks at the challenges
faced by some of | 2:03:49 | 2:03:51 | |
these young people. | 2:03:51 | 2:03:53 | |
For more than a year,
Emily has been learning at home. | 2:03:54 | 2:03:57 | |
She's been diagnosed
with autism and ADHD. | 2:03:57 | 2:04:00 | |
School felt noisy and overwhelming. | 2:04:00 | 2:04:04 | |
A bit stressful because I don't
really like, like, a lot of loud | 2:04:04 | 2:04:09 | |
noises because it just makes me
really upset and I want to learn | 2:04:09 | 2:04:15 | |
things that I'm interested in, but,
it's like I can't learn anything | 2:04:15 | 2:04:18 | |
because I don't know how
to and they don't tell me how. | 2:04:18 | 2:04:23 | |
Emily would get angry and lash out. | 2:04:23 | 2:04:26 | |
Now she is on medication at home. | 2:04:26 | 2:04:30 | |
Her mum, Lorna, decided to home
educate after trying three schools. | 2:04:30 | 2:04:36 | |
I couldn't cope with her going
to school and then coming back | 2:04:36 | 2:04:39 | |
with her so stressed out,
so angry at me and then not wanting | 2:04:39 | 2:04:42 | |
to go to school the next day. | 2:04:42 | 2:04:45 | |
The meltdowns were horrendous
and I can't pick her up | 2:04:45 | 2:04:48 | |
and put her in the car
and physically take her to school. | 2:04:48 | 2:04:51 | |
Lorna isn't the only parent
to reach this decision. | 2:04:51 | 2:04:56 | |
A growing number of families
with children with special needs | 2:04:56 | 2:04:59 | |
are deciding to home educate. | 2:04:59 | 2:05:01 | |
The fear is they're doing that
because they feel let down | 2:05:01 | 2:05:04 | |
by the school system. | 2:05:04 | 2:05:10 | |
Between 2013 and 2017,
there was a 57% increase in children | 2:05:10 | 2:05:13 | |
with special needs being home
educated, and that's just children | 2:05:13 | 2:05:15 | |
who have a statement
or equivalent in England, | 2:05:15 | 2:05:17 | |
Wales or Northern Ireland. | 2:05:17 | 2:05:20 | |
It's a 64% increase
if you just look at England. | 2:05:20 | 2:05:25 | |
Scotland has a different system,
making comparisons difficult. | 2:05:25 | 2:05:29 | |
I think before there was people
genuinely making a choice | 2:05:29 | 2:05:31 | |
because that was the right thing
for them and now there are too many | 2:05:31 | 2:05:34 | |
families who are saying they don't
feel like they have either option | 2:05:34 | 2:05:38 | |
so they're having to resort to home
education, that can't be right. | 2:05:38 | 2:05:43 | |
Emily is learning differently
with some extra classes. | 2:05:43 | 2:05:46 | |
She's happier out of schools
but misses her friends. | 2:05:46 | 2:05:53 | |
In England, the Government says more
special education places | 2:05:53 | 2:05:55 | |
are being created and its putting
money into the system | 2:05:55 | 2:05:57 | |
to make it work better. | 2:05:57 | 2:05:58 | |
Branwen Jeffreys, BBC News. | 2:05:58 | 2:06:05 | |
More on that throughout the morning
for you. | 2:06:05 | 2:06:07 | |
The families of five people -
including three children - | 2:06:07 | 2:06:10 | |
who died when a stolen car crashed
into a tree in Leeds have paid | 2:06:10 | 2:06:13 | |
tribute to their relatives. | 2:06:13 | 2:06:14 | |
A vigil was held in memory
of the victims last night. | 2:06:14 | 2:06:17 | |
Police are still investigating
the cause of the collision. | 2:06:17 | 2:06:19 | |
Our reporter Phil
Bodmer is in Leeds. | 2:06:19 | 2:06:20 | |
Police are still investigating the
cause of the collision. They are | 2:06:20 | 2:06:23 | |
still trying to find out what
happened, aren't they? What happened | 2:06:23 | 2:06:30 | |
here at ten o'clock on Saturday
night is still unclear at this | 2:06:30 | 2:06:33 | |
stage. As daylight dorms this
morning, you can feed a growing | 2:06:33 | 2:06:38 | |
number of floral tributes to the
victims of this awful incident on | 2:06:38 | 2:06:42 | |
Saturday evening, and indeed people
have been coming down, looking at | 2:06:42 | 2:06:46 | |
the surrounding area of where this
crash happened. About three miles | 2:06:46 | 2:06:50 | |
north of the city centre. Five
people last their lives after the | 2:06:50 | 2:06:56 | |
stolen Renault Clio collided with
the trees just beyond us, you can | 2:06:56 | 2:06:59 | |
see where the trunk was scarred. The
victims have been named named as | 2:06:59 | 2:07:05 | |
15-year-old Elias and Elliott,
alongside a 15-year-old and | 2:07:05 | 2:07:10 | |
24-year-old. Father of two, Anthony,
was also killed. Police are | 2:07:10 | 2:07:15 | |
appealing for anybody who was in the
area on Saturday night or may have | 2:07:15 | 2:07:19 | |
information leading up to the
circumstances about what happened | 2:07:19 | 2:07:22 | |
here to get in touch with them.
Meanwhile, two 15-year-old boys | 2:07:22 | 2:07:27 | |
remain in custody, held on suspicion
of causing death by dangerous | 2:07:27 | 2:07:30 | |
driving. OK, thank you. Theresa May
says the government will fund the | 2:07:30 | 2:07:37 | |
full cost of paying for the fallout
of the Manchester bombing. | 2:07:37 | 2:07:47 | |
It comes after the Mayor
of Greater Manchester, Andy Burnham, | 2:07:47 | 2:07:49 | |
said the government's initial offer
was five million pounds too | 2:07:49 | 2:07:52 | |
low and estimated that
£28 million would be needed. | 2:07:52 | 2:07:54 | |
We have been talking about millions
of pounds which is going to be spent | 2:07:54 | 2:07:57 | |
on high-tech industries to boost
skills and create jobs. | 2:07:57 | 2:08:02 | |
It's part of the government's
Industrial Strategy, | 2:08:02 | 2:08:04 | |
which aims to increase
economic performance post-Brexit. | 2:08:04 | 2:08:07 | |
Sean is in Coventry
for us this morning. | 2:08:07 | 2:08:12 | |
Good morning. Good morning. It is a
pretty good example of what the | 2:08:12 | 2:08:20 | |
government would like to see
replicated right across the country. | 2:08:20 | 2:08:24 | |
The manufacturing technology Centre
here, they have innovation here that | 2:08:24 | 2:08:27 | |
will have come from universities,
working with businesses who are on | 2:08:27 | 2:08:32 | |
this floor. They will be trying out
a lot of this machinery. Trying to | 2:08:32 | 2:08:36 | |
get that investment into their
companies to try and grow their own | 2:08:36 | 2:08:39 | |
business and the sectors they are
in. There are five key areas in this | 2:08:39 | 2:08:43 | |
industrial strategy, the White Paper
has looked at. First of all his | 2:08:43 | 2:08:48 | |
ideas. They want people to have
those ideas. The businesses and the | 2:08:48 | 2:08:52 | |
universities to talk a bit more and
get them out there. Ideas is a key | 2:08:52 | 2:08:57 | |
starting point. After that, people,
investment in skills, training, | 2:08:57 | 2:09:02 | |
making sure businesses have the
people they need to carry out all | 2:09:02 | 2:09:05 | |
the ideas that they've got. Also the
fact that people need to be doing | 2:09:05 | 2:09:09 | |
different jobs, if so many of these
robotics will be taking over, a lot | 2:09:09 | 2:09:13 | |
of the roles people are doing at the
moment. After that, ideas... You | 2:09:13 | 2:09:18 | |
have people, you've got a bit of
infrastructure as well. | 2:09:18 | 2:09:22 | |
Infrastructure is obviously
important. People are going to get | 2:09:22 | 2:09:24 | |
around the country to these jobs per
at the same time, businesses need to | 2:09:24 | 2:09:27 | |
be able to communicate with each
other. If you are in a rural area | 2:09:27 | 2:09:31 | |
you might need a bit of investment
in your floral broadband. Business | 2:09:31 | 2:09:36 | |
environment, access to finance, all
that kind of stuff is needed. | 2:09:36 | 2:09:39 | |
Government policy, as well. Once
government has had these ideas they | 2:09:39 | 2:09:42 | |
need to make sure -- need to know
what they'd need to put in place. | 2:09:42 | 2:09:47 | |
Here in Coventry today, West
Midlands is one area, but Northwest, | 2:09:47 | 2:09:51 | |
the Northeast, Scotland, Wales, all
of these areas outside of London | 2:09:51 | 2:09:54 | |
particularly will be very crucial to
this industrial strategy. Businesses | 2:09:54 | 2:09:58 | |
are little concerned May be Brexit
will prove too much of a | 2:09:58 | 2:10:02 | |
distraction. We've heard a lot of
this thing before, infrastructure | 2:10:02 | 2:10:05 | |
commissions on all that kind of
thing. Will the government actually | 2:10:05 | 2:10:08 | |
stick to the plans they have now?
Thank you very much, see you in | 2:10:08 | 2:10:12 | |
about half an hour. Scotland Yard
says 29 people have been charged | 2:10:12 | 2:10:19 | |
after an investigation into the
misuse of electronic tags. Employees | 2:10:19 | 2:10:24 | |
are accused of taking money so that
tags can be fitted loosely and thus | 2:10:24 | 2:10:31 | |
removed easily. | 2:10:31 | 2:10:35 | |
We are going to show you a very
large gingerbread house. It is | 2:10:35 | 2:10:40 | |
life-size, two stories, standing in
the lobby of a Hotel in San | 2:10:40 | 2:10:44 | |
Francisco in the United States. It
took 375 hours to assemble, nearly | 2:10:44 | 2:10:48 | |
eight metres high and 11 metres
wide. | 2:10:48 | 2:10:52 | |
It was 10,000 pieces of gingerbread,
over time of icing. I checked | 2:10:52 | 2:10:57 | |
earlier, somebody apparently says
you can eat it after a month. | 2:10:57 | 2:11:01 | |
Gingerbread is fine. One thing you
definitely can eat, mince pies! | 2:11:01 | 2:11:06 | |
Talking about mince pies in a
moment. It is 8:10am. | 2:11:06 | 2:11:10 | |
For many of us, Christmas is a time
to show our friends and loved | 2:11:10 | 2:11:14 | |
ones how much we care,
but what about the thousands | 2:11:14 | 2:11:16 | |
of people spending the festive
period alone? | 2:11:16 | 2:11:18 | |
Well, simply sharing a mince
pie with a neighbour | 2:11:18 | 2:11:20 | |
could make all the difference. | 2:11:20 | 2:11:21 | |
That's according to
the Jo Cox Foundation, | 2:11:21 | 2:11:23 | |
which has launched a campaign to get
communities talking in order | 2:11:23 | 2:11:25 | |
to tackle loneliness. | 2:11:25 | 2:11:27 | |
Jo's sister, Kim Leadbeater,
is here to tell us more. | 2:11:27 | 2:11:32 | |
With some mince pies and baubles.
Mince pies and baubles, what more | 2:11:32 | 2:11:38 | |
could you want? This is the
Christmas get-together. Many viewers | 2:11:38 | 2:11:41 | |
will remember the one that happened
over the summer. Give us an update. | 2:11:41 | 2:11:45 | |
You are on talking about planning
it. How did it go? It was really | 2:11:45 | 2:11:50 | |
well-received across the country. We
did the great get-together on the | 2:11:50 | 2:11:54 | |
anniversary of Jo's murder. Over 9
million people did some sort of | 2:11:54 | 2:11:59 | |
get-together, a barbecue, street
party, sports day whatever. What it | 2:11:59 | 2:12:02 | |
showed if there is an appetite there
for events such as that, where | 2:12:02 | 2:12:06 | |
people can come together over
something simple like sharing food | 2:12:06 | 2:12:09 | |
or doing some sort of activity. 75%
of people who we asked said we | 2:12:09 | 2:12:13 | |
should do this more often, so we
are. 9 million, an extraordinary | 2:12:13 | 2:12:18 | |
amount of people. How did that make
you, as a family, feel? It was | 2:12:18 | 2:12:24 | |
clearly a difficult weekend for us
and it got us through Costa resort | 2:12:24 | 2:12:28 | |
to throw ourselves into the
community and were scooped up by | 2:12:28 | 2:12:31 | |
people who looked after us. I think
just creating something positive, | 2:12:31 | 2:12:35 | |
knowing that's what Jo would have
wanted and knowing that, like I | 2:12:35 | 2:12:39 | |
said, most people seemed to want it.
There is so much negativity at the | 2:12:39 | 2:12:43 | |
moment and people feel divided,
often people just want an | 2:12:43 | 2:12:46 | |
opportunity to get together, that's
what the get-together did and | 2:12:46 | 2:12:51 | |
hopefully what the Christmas one
will do. I spoke to you before and | 2:12:51 | 2:12:54 | |
you said that is the legacy wanted
for Jo, shared values, that is at | 2:12:54 | 2:12:59 | |
the essence of it. That is why you
have now brought around the | 2:12:59 | 2:13:03 | |
Christmas version, based on mince
pies but an important message | 2:13:03 | 2:13:06 | |
nonetheless. Don't panic, if you
don't like mince pies you can have | 2:13:06 | 2:13:10 | |
Christmas cake or whatever you
fancy! The thing is, after Jo was | 2:13:10 | 2:13:15 | |
murdered, the world felt like a very
hostile place in a very divided | 2:13:15 | 2:13:18 | |
place. I think for Jo's husband,
myself and the family we thought we | 2:13:18 | 2:13:24 | |
needed to counterbalance it with a
different narrative which was about | 2:13:24 | 2:13:27 | |
bringing people together. That's
what the foundation is all about. I | 2:13:27 | 2:13:30 | |
have been involved with them working
on loneliness. We have a perception | 2:13:30 | 2:13:33 | |
that Christmas, the adverts are
wrong with families around the | 2:13:33 | 2:13:37 | |
table, lots of food and presents,
but the reality is for a lot of | 2:13:37 | 2:13:41 | |
people it's not like that at all. We
need to make sure we reach out to | 2:13:41 | 2:13:44 | |
people who want lucky enough to have
that situation and encourage people | 2:13:44 | 2:13:48 | |
to come together. You mentioned
loneliness. We do talk about it | 2:13:48 | 2:13:51 | |
quite a lot here on Breakfast. It
can be devastating on people's | 2:13:51 | 2:13:57 | |
lives. Absolutely. I felt extremely
lonely at times in this past 17 | 2:13:57 | 2:14:02 | |
months. When you personally
experienced that, you come to | 2:14:02 | 2:14:05 | |
understand it. If you choose to be
on your own, that's very different, | 2:14:05 | 2:14:10 | |
but if you are lonely, whether
through loss or because you are | 2:14:10 | 2:14:14 | |
socially isolated or you're a carer
or a new parent or whatever it is, | 2:14:14 | 2:14:17 | |
and are lots of reasons why people
feel lonely and we should be | 2:14:17 | 2:14:21 | |
embarrassed to talk about it.
Christmas can feel extremely lonely, | 2:14:21 | 2:14:24 | |
because we are meant to be having
this fantastic time and it's not | 2:14:24 | 2:14:27 | |
always like that. I think just
reaching out to people who might be | 2:14:27 | 2:14:31 | |
feeling right that all been reaching
out if you are the person feeling | 2:14:31 | 2:14:37 | |
lonely. The idea behind the mince
pie, what is the hashtag? Hashtag | 2:14:37 | 2:14:40 | |
mince pie moments. That is a
conversation starter, something to | 2:14:40 | 2:14:43 | |
share with someone else, offer them
a mince pie, have a chat and bring | 2:14:43 | 2:14:47 | |
them together in that way?
Absolutely. It's like the June | 2:14:47 | 2:14:51 | |
get-together, it can be whatever you
want it to be. If you wanted to be | 2:14:51 | 2:14:55 | |
simple like... I haven't seen
so-and-so down the street for a few | 2:14:55 | 2:14:59 | |
days, knocking the door and see if
they won a mince pie and E. Or big | 2:14:59 | 2:15:02 | |
scale events like big lunches to
feed people who are homeless or | 2:15:02 | 2:15:10 | |
isolated at Christmas, we hope we
will get 200 people to come to one | 2:15:10 | 2:15:13 | |
of the churches where we lived for a
big event. It could be anything big | 2:15:13 | 2:15:17 | |
or small. It might be people you
haven't seen for ages, people who | 2:15:17 | 2:15:20 | |
have lost loved ones, it's about
reaching out and connecting with | 2:15:20 | 2:15:23 | |
someone. And Christmas is a
particularly difficult time for your | 2:15:23 | 2:15:27 | |
family I imagine. Will that help
things, in some way? Absolutely. | 2:15:27 | 2:15:31 | |
It's a way of coping. Me and my mum
and dad sat down and said what will | 2:15:31 | 2:15:40 | |
we do Christmas day? We said we
wanted to do something that would | 2:15:40 | 2:15:42 | |
make a difference to people. We
could sit there and be sad and I'm | 2:15:42 | 2:15:45 | |
sure we will have those moments, but
to throw yourself into something | 2:15:45 | 2:15:47 | |
like this is much more positive. I
have met so many times. You have | 2:15:47 | 2:15:50 | |
really been very much against John
Major, thrown into the spotlight, | 2:15:50 | 2:15:55 | |
haven't you? It has been a bit
nonstop and I get nervous when I | 2:15:55 | 2:16:00 | |
come and do things like this but I
feel I have to do it. What I think | 2:16:00 | 2:16:05 | |
is, Jo was alive for 40 years and
achieved an awful lot, but she | 2:16:05 | 2:16:09 | |
would've achieved so much more in
the next 40 years of her life. I | 2:16:09 | 2:16:12 | |
think if every person who knew and
loved Jo, who met her always | 2:16:12 | 2:16:16 | |
inspired by her do something to
create something good, then that is | 2:16:16 | 2:16:20 | |
something she would be extremely
proud of. Thank you. Thank you very | 2:16:20 | 2:16:26 | |
much and for bringing those in. You
can keep those mince pies! They | 2:16:26 | 2:16:30 | |
won't last long. Once we've shared
them out among the crew they will be | 2:16:30 | 2:16:34 | |
you. | 2:16:34 | 2:16:35 | |

Breakfast from BBC News. | 2:16:38 | 2:16:40 | |
The main stories: | 2:16:40 | 2:16:42 | |
Authorities
in Bali have warned that a volcano | 2:16:42 | 2:16:45 | |
on the island is in imminent danger
of a full-scale eruption. | 2:16:45 | 2:16:50 | |
A charity has warned BBC Breakfast
that an increasing number of parents | 2:16:50 | 2:16:53 | |
who have children with special needs
believe home education | 2:16:53 | 2:16:55 | |
is their only option. | 2:16:55 | 2:16:56 | |
Here's Matt with a look
at this morning's weather. | 2:17:01 | 2:17:06 | |
The weather has not been
particularly rosy in London this | 2:17:06 | 2:17:09 | |
morning. Matt is on the roof there.
I sporks Matt, the bad news if -- I | 2:17:09 | 2:17:14 | |
suppose Matt, the bad news if people
think today is chilly, it will get | 2:17:14 | 2:17:18 | |
suppose Matt, the bad news if people
think today is chilly, it will get | 2:17:18 | 2:17:18 | |
worse? Yes. Good morning. It is a
week that will be dominated by the | 2:17:18 | 2:17:25 | |
word "Cold". On Regent's Street it
is nine Celsius. That's probably as | 2:17:25 | 2:17:29 | |
high as the temperature will get
this week. It is a week which will | 2:17:29 | 2:17:33 | |
be dominated by colder weather.
Today is probably the mildest day of | 2:17:33 | 2:17:36 | |
the week if you can call it that,
but for many it will be chilly and | 2:17:36 | 2:17:40 | |
it will be a story of sunshine and
showers. Some of you seeing more | 2:17:40 | 2:17:43 | |
sunshine than showers. But out there
this morning, not only the mildest | 2:17:43 | 2:17:48 | |
start, but for some of you the
wettest start. The rain spreading | 2:17:48 | 2:17:55 | |
towards the English Channel and the
Channel Islands. The temperatures 11 | 2:17:55 | 2:17:59 | |
or 12 Celsius. It is as the rain
clears southwards and back into the | 2:17:59 | 2:18:04 | |
clearer air, mid-Wales, this is
where the temperatures will be | 2:18:04 | 2:18:06 | |
starting to drop. A few showers
around. Most frequent across parts | 2:18:06 | 2:18:12 | |
of north-west England and Scotland
and Northern Ireland. Some of the | 2:18:12 | 2:18:15 | |
showers wintry with hail and thunder
as well. Across the north-east of | 2:18:15 | 2:18:18 | |
Scotland this is where we have got
some very strong winds, raw feeling | 2:18:18 | 2:18:23 | |
day with winds gusting 50mph to
60mph. Through the day, the heaviest | 2:18:23 | 2:18:28 | |
of the rain becomes confined to the
Channel Islands. Then for the rest | 2:18:28 | 2:18:31 | |
of you, sunshine here and there.
There will be a few showers coming | 2:18:31 | 2:18:35 | |
and going. Most frequent north-west
England and north and west Scotland. | 2:18:35 | 2:18:40 | |
That's a mixture of sleet and snow
and hail and thunder possible. Parts | 2:18:40 | 2:18:48 | |
of south-east Scotland and eastern
England will stay dry. Make the most | 2:18:48 | 2:18:52 | |
of it, because the rest of the week
more showers to come. Temperatures | 2:18:52 | 2:18:56 | |
will drop into single figures.
Evening rush hour, sWention will be | 2:18:56 | 2:19:00 | |
wet, but elsewhere, the showers that
we have will fade quickly. Showers | 2:19:00 | 2:19:04 | |
confined to coastal counties in the
north and the west overnight. | 2:19:04 | 2:19:09 | |
Clearer skies elsewhere. Winds will
keep the temperatures up in towns | 2:19:09 | 2:19:14 | |
and cities, one, two, three Celsius.
Some this the countryside will drop | 2:19:14 | 2:19:17 | |
below freezing if the breeze falls
light enough, but tomorrow morning, | 2:19:17 | 2:19:21 | |
a colder start to the day compared
with today, but it should be a drier | 2:19:21 | 2:19:25 | |
and brighter one. A few showers to
begin in northern and Western | 2:19:25 | 2:19:31 | |
Scotland and through the day it is
east of Scotland and eastern parts | 2:19:31 | 2:19:34 | |
of England who will start to see
more of the showers and they will | 2:19:34 | 2:19:39 | |
turn wintry. Temperatures, it is
meant to feel closer to freezing | 2:19:39 | 2:19:44 | |
with the strength of that wind down
eastern coastal counties in | 2:19:44 | 2:19:47 | |
particular. Some of you will get
away tomorrow with staying dry all | 2:19:47 | 2:19:51 | |
day long. And the same again on
Wednesday. Parts of southern | 2:19:51 | 2:19:58 | |
England, the Midlands and north-west
England, best favoured for staying | 2:19:58 | 2:20:01 | |
dry. Showers across the west. The
main showers on Wednesday. Again, | 2:20:01 | 2:20:05 | |
Eastern Scotland, eastern England,
and still that strong wind down | 2:20:05 | 2:20:11 | |
North Sea coasts, and it will make
it feel raw and the cold wind and | 2:20:11 | 2:20:16 | |
the cold conditions into Thursday.
By Thursday Dan and Louise, | 2:20:16 | 2:20:19 | |
temperatures only three or four
Celsius. Back to you both. | 2:20:19 | 2:20:23 | |
Officially Brrr. It is. | 2:20:27 | 2:20:32 | |
BBC Breakfast has learnt there's
been a significant rise | 2:20:32 | 2:20:34 | |
in the demand for places in special
schools across England. | 2:20:34 | 2:20:37 | |
Some parents have even been forced
to send their children hundreds | 2:20:37 | 2:20:39 | |
of miles across the country in order
to access the support they need. | 2:20:39 | 2:20:42 | |
The Government says it's investing
hundreds of millions of pounds | 2:20:42 | 2:20:45 | |
to try and ease pressure. | 2:20:45 | 2:20:46 | |
As we launch a week-long series
looking at life for our most | 2:20:46 | 2:20:49 | |
vulnerable children,
Breakfast's Jayne McCubbin | 2:20:49 | 2:20:50 | |
has this report. | 2:20:50 | 2:20:53 | |
We have been given rare access
to spend the day with the children | 2:20:53 | 2:20:57 | |
at the Royal School, Manchester. | 2:20:57 | 2:20:59 | |
This is a special school
for children with some | 2:20:59 | 2:21:02 | |
of the highest needs. | 2:21:02 | 2:21:05 | |
200 staff support 48 children
here including Chloe. | 2:21:05 | 2:21:09 | |
We've just done map-making. | 2:21:09 | 2:21:13 | |
She's sat beautifully the whole
lesson, which she would never, ever | 2:21:13 | 2:21:15 | |
have done when she first came here. | 2:21:15 | 2:21:17 | |
That is fantastic. | 2:21:17 | 2:21:18 | |
Chloe has been here for 11 weeks,
ever since her last school | 2:21:18 | 2:21:22 | |
placement broke down. | 2:21:22 | 2:21:25 | |
It was so difficult. | 2:21:25 | 2:21:26 | |
I was very sad. | 2:21:26 | 2:21:28 | |
I isolated myself and
I didn't have a life. | 2:21:28 | 2:21:31 | |
She would physically try
and attack me, not to hurt me, | 2:21:31 | 2:21:34 | |
but just out of distress. | 2:21:34 | 2:21:39 | |
The turnaround is above and beyond
what I could have imagined. | 2:21:39 | 2:21:49 | |
Saying "mummy" every day -
she only said "mummy" to me twice | 2:21:49 | 2:21:51 | |
in six years, and now I get
it every day. | 2:21:51 | 2:21:54 | |
I've got my little girl back.
She's so happy. | 2:21:54 | 2:21:56 | |
But all of this costs,
and there is a national | 2:21:56 | 2:21:58 | |
shortage of places. | 2:21:58 | 2:21:59 | |
James survived birth at 25 weeks. | 2:21:59 | 2:22:01 | |
Many more babies are surviving
premature births and conditions | 2:22:01 | 2:22:05 | |
which previously would have killed. | 2:22:05 | 2:22:09 | |
But many will have special
needs because of that | 2:22:09 | 2:22:11 | |
and many will join a waiting list
for a space. | 2:22:11 | 2:22:16 | |
We've got a seven-year-old
child who is starting | 2:22:16 | 2:22:18 | |
here next week, and they're
coming from Hertfordshire. | 2:22:18 | 2:22:20 | |
How many miles is that? | 2:22:20 | 2:22:21 | |
A long, long way. | 2:22:21 | 2:22:26 | |
Is that a great sadness for you,
that these children can't | 2:22:26 | 2:22:28 | |
find the right provision
on their doorstep? | 2:22:28 | 2:22:30 | |
Closer to home, yes. | 2:22:30 | 2:22:40 | |
Evy had to wait until she was eight.
She used to surround herself with | 2:22:43 | 2:22:48 | |
cuddly toys. | 2:22:48 | 2:22:55 | |
Today, Evie loves music,
and her clothes. | 2:22:55 | 2:22:57 | |
And, it seems, cameras. | 2:22:57 | 2:22:59 | |
And she loves hugs. | 2:22:59 | 2:23:00 | |
She can make these choices now. | 2:23:00 | 2:23:01 | |
The question is, where would Evie be
today if she had had this kind | 2:23:01 | 2:23:05 | |
of specialist support right
from the start? | 2:23:05 | 2:23:06 | |
It costs a huge amount of money
to have a child here. | 2:23:06 | 2:23:10 | |
Like, maybe £250,000 a year. | 2:23:10 | 2:23:14 | |
If we can commit to investing
that money much earlier | 2:23:14 | 2:23:17 | |
in places like this,
we can see children returning | 2:23:17 | 2:23:21 | |
back to mainstream and over
the life of that child | 2:23:21 | 2:23:24 | |
there will be a return on that
investment, which will mean, | 2:23:24 | 2:23:27 | |
when they become adults,
they get employment, | 2:23:27 | 2:23:28 | |
they go on to live independently,
and that will cost | 2:23:28 | 2:23:31 | |
society much less. | 2:23:31 | 2:23:32 | |
Early intervention is everything. | 2:23:32 | 2:23:33 | |
H for Henry. | 2:23:33 | 2:23:37 | |
Henry is doing so well he may be
able to move onwards and upwards | 2:23:37 | 2:23:40 | |
to less-specialist provision. | 2:23:40 | 2:23:44 | |
Fantastic. Well done. | 2:23:44 | 2:23:46 | |
The reality for most children,
though, is that they will have | 2:23:46 | 2:23:49 | |
to have struggled in other,
less-specialist placements before | 2:23:49 | 2:23:51 | |
they can finally get to the place
where they make progress. | 2:23:51 | 2:23:54 | |
I now feel like she's got a future.
She has a chance in life. | 2:23:54 | 2:24:00 | |
I'm very excited what the future
holds. | 2:24:00 | 2:24:02 | |
Goodbye. | 2:24:02 | 2:24:04 | |
We are going to let you go. | 2:24:04 | 2:24:06 | |
See you soon. | 2:24:06 | 2:24:08 | |
Goodbye, see you soon. | 2:24:08 | 2:24:10 | |
Thanks so much to the children
at Manchester Royal School | 2:24:10 | 2:24:12 | |
for allowing us to visit. | 2:24:12 | 2:24:21 | |
and disabilities. | 2:24:21 | 2:24:25 | |
Thank you for everyone who got in
touch. Victoria says this is a | 2:24:25 | 2:24:28 | |
subject she is really passionate
about. My son is 19 and studying at | 2:24:28 | 2:24:33 | |
Derby University. I cannot believe
he is doing this as when he was | 2:24:33 | 2:24:36 | |
seven he was diagnosed with severe
dyslexia. I knew something wasn't | 2:24:36 | 2:24:41 | |
right from an early age. Pre-school
and primary school teachers didn't | 2:24:41 | 2:24:44 | |
want to know and would suggest he
just played in the sand. Victoria, | 2:24:44 | 2:24:50 | |
thank you for getting in contact. ,
"We had 140 pupils, received an | 2:24:50 | 2:24:57 | |
outstanding judgment from Ofsted.
Three times running it was was and | 2:24:57 | 2:25:03 | |
is a successful local authority
school. We provided the activities | 2:25:03 | 2:25:06 | |
and opportunities you showed on the
film this morning." Good news for | 2:25:06 | 2:25:10 | |
people like David who says we have
two brand-new purpose-built special | 2:25:10 | 2:25:17 | |
educational schools. Each having
places for 180 students." One thing | 2:25:17 | 2:25:21 | |
is clear, there is lots of people
struggling and finding it hard, but | 2:25:21 | 2:25:26 | |
when you get help, the difference it
makes is enormous. | 2:25:26 | 2:25:31 | |
Tomorrow, our report is about the
number of disputes between parents | 2:25:31 | 2:25:34 | |
and local authorities over the level
of support offered. So we will talk | 2:25:34 | 2:25:37 | |
about that tomorrow.
Diane in Oxford, "My son who is now | 2:25:37 | 2:25:43 | |
21 went to mainstream school,
constant problems and difficulties | 2:25:43 | 2:25:46 | |
over the years. It is a fight and
battle with the education | 2:25:46 | 2:25:50 | |
department. After three tries trying
it get statement, the only option | 2:25:50 | 2:25:53 | |
was to remove him from the system."
Thank you. | 2:25:53 | 2:25:58 | |
We are talking about dad dancing!
Thank you... There was a survey | 2:25:58 | 2:26:05 | |
which says people are just dads. It
is embarrassment. That's why people | 2:26:05 | 2:26:11 | |
never dance or rarely dance even
with their children and family | 2:26:11 | 2:26:14 | |
members. Here are famous dads who
have danced. We will talk about that | 2:26:14 | 2:26:18 | |
later. Three-quarters of men either
never dance at all or only do so | 2:26:18 | 2:26:23 | |
rarely which is just a great shame.
Do send in your videos. We have had | 2:26:23 | 2:26:30 | |
beauties already this morning!
Thank you for your questions for | 2:26:30 | 2:26:40 | |
David Walliams. | 2:26:40 | 2:26:41 | |
Time now to get the news,
travel and weather where you are. | 2:26:41 | 2:26:42 | |
There's more on our website
at the usual address, | 2:30:05 | 2:30:08 | |
For now, it's back
to Dan and Louise. | 2:30:08 | 2:30:10 | |
Bye-bye. | 2:30:10 | 2:30:10 | |
Bye-bye. | 2:30:10 | 2:30:11 | |
Hello, this is Breakfast
with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin. | 2:30:14 | 2:30:19 | |
It is 8:30am. | 2:30:19 | 2:30:21 | |
It is 8:30am. | 2:30:21 | 2:30:22 | |
Here's a summary of this morning's
main stories from BBC News. | 2:30:22 | 2:30:25 | |
Authorities in Bali have warned that
a volcano on the island | 2:30:25 | 2:30:28 | |
is in imminent danger
of a full-scale eruption. | 2:30:28 | 2:30:30 | |
Mount Agung has been sending clouds
of thick ash and smoke thousands | 2:30:30 | 2:30:33 | |
of feet into the air since Saturday. | 2:30:33 | 2:30:35 | |
The airport has been closed
and locals have been ordered | 2:30:35 | 2:30:37 | |
to leave their homes. | 2:30:37 | 2:30:42 | |
Let's have a look at the live
pictures, and of course the volcano | 2:30:42 | 2:30:47 | |
hidden beneath the clouds, but you
can see the plume of ash, and this | 2:30:47 | 2:30:50 | |
has been going on for 24 hours,
perhaps longer, but now they are | 2:30:50 | 2:30:54 | |
saying there is imminent danger that
it could erupt. We will keep you | 2:30:54 | 2:30:59 | |
right up to date on that an
Breakfast. | 2:30:59 | 2:31:02 | |
When it last erupted in the 1960s,
over a thousand people died, but | 2:31:02 | 2:31:07 | |
nowadays the faction -- evacuation
area is huge, so the hope is that | 2:31:07 | 2:31:16 | |
casualties can be kept down to a
bare minimum. They are preparing. | 2:31:16 | 2:31:26 | |
The government says it is investing
money to create more special needs | 2:31:26 | 2:31:32 | |
places in schools. An exclusive
investigation by BBC Breakfast has | 2:31:32 | 2:31:38 | |
found an increasing number of
children being educated at home, | 2:31:38 | 2:31:41 | |
with some families believing that is
their only option. Before, there | 2:31:41 | 2:31:45 | |
were people who are genuinely making
a choice because that was the right | 2:31:45 | 2:31:48 | |
thing for them, and now there are
too many families who say they do | 2:31:48 | 2:31:53 | |
and feel they have any other option,
so they have to resort to home | 2:31:53 | 2:31:56 | |
education, and that can't be right.
High-tech industries are set to | 2:31:56 | 2:32:02 | |
receive millions of pounds in extra
funding to boost skills and create | 2:32:02 | 2:32:04 | |
jobs is part of the Government's
strategy to increase economic | 2:32:04 | 2:32:10 | |
performance post Brexit. Sections
like robotics, artificial | 2:32:10 | 2:32:13 | |
intelligence and medical research
will be targeted, but some critics | 2:32:13 | 2:32:16 | |
say more should be done to help
traditional skills. More on this | 2:32:16 | 2:32:19 | |
later in the show.
Scotland Yard says 29 people have | 2:32:19 | 2:32:24 | |
been charged after an investigation
into the alleged misuse of | 2:32:24 | 2:32:28 | |
electronic tags. Two former
employees of Bielik on it monitors | 2:32:28 | 2:32:31 | |
servers are accused of accepting
money in exchange for fitting tags | 2:32:31 | 2:32:35 | |
loosely so they could be removed.
The other 27 people are believed to | 2:32:35 | 2:32:38 | |
be offenders who took advantage of
the alleged scam. Theresa May has | 2:32:38 | 2:32:43 | |
said the Government will fund the
full cost of dealing with the | 2:32:43 | 2:32:46 | |
aftermath of the suicide bombing at
Manchester Arena which killed 22 | 2:32:46 | 2:32:49 | |
people in May. This comes after the
mayor of Greater Manchester, Andy | 2:32:49 | 2:32:53 | |
Burnham, says the Government's
initial offer was £5 million to low, | 2:32:53 | 2:32:57 | |
and estimated that £28 million would
be needed. | 2:32:57 | 2:33:02 | |
Councils in England generated £890
million in profit from parking fees | 2:33:02 | 2:33:06 | |
and fines during the last financial
year, 10% higher than in the | 2:33:06 | 2:33:10 | |
previous one. Figures obtained by
the RAC foundation showed four of | 2:33:10 | 2:33:15 | |
the five councils with the largest
surplus were in London. The Local | 2:33:15 | 2:33:19 | |
Government Association said income
from parking went towards essential | 2:33:19 | 2:33:22 | |
transport projects and repairs. That
is a lot of money to spread around. | 2:33:22 | 2:33:31 | |
Here's what is coming up on
breakfast this morning. Hello, | 2:33:31 | 2:33:36 | |
mother, how are you? Not so bad.
Great. Got to go. | 2:33:36 | 2:33:44 | |
He's introduced us | 2:33:44 | 2:33:45 | |
to gangsta grannies and awful
aunties, and now it's | 2:33:45 | 2:33:47 | |
the turn of "Bad Dad". | 2:33:47 | 2:33:48 | |
We'll be joined by the comedian
and children's author | 2:33:48 | 2:33:50 | |
David Walliams shortly. | 2:33:50 | 2:33:53 | |
This lot aren't afraid to dance,
but as new research suggests more | 2:33:53 | 2:33:56 | |
than three quarters of men are,
we'll be celebrating | 2:33:56 | 2:33:58 | |
the joy of dad-dancing. | 2:33:58 | 2:34:00 | |
What a voice. | 2:34:10 | 2:34:11 | |
From young refugees to inmates,
she's helped them find | 2:34:11 | 2:34:13 | |
their voice through song. | 2:34:13 | 2:34:15 | |
Now the Grammy award winning
Opera Singer Joyce DiDonato is | 2:34:15 | 2:34:17 | |
taking on a new musical challenge. | 2:34:17 | 2:34:18 | |
She'll be here to tell
us about it after 9. | 2:34:18 | 2:34:27 | |
That was quite a note she was
holding there! Sally is here talking | 2:34:27 | 2:34:32 | |
about the Ashes, or shall we just
move on? | 2:34:32 | 2:34:37 | |
Shall we just get this bit over
with? | 2:34:37 | 2:34:42 | |
Four to go!
And next weekend, it could be | 2:34:42 | 2:34:48 | |
completely different, it will be a
day night match, a different ball, | 2:34:48 | 2:34:51 | |
the weather will be cooler, so it
all could be different, but | 2:34:51 | 2:34:55 | |
factually, I have to tell you this. | 2:34:55 | 2:34:58 | |
England lost the first
test in Brisbane. | 2:34:58 | 2:35:00 | |
Australia got the runs
they needed easily. | 2:35:00 | 2:35:01 | |
David Warner and Cameron Bancroft
both made half centuries | 2:35:01 | 2:35:03 | |
as they reached 173
without losing a wicket. | 2:35:03 | 2:35:06 | |
So despite some promising moments
along the way England | 2:35:06 | 2:35:08 | |
were comfortably beaten in the end
and go 1-0 down in | 2:35:08 | 2:35:11 | |
the five match series. | 2:35:11 | 2:35:20 | |
I think the most important thing is
that we stayed strong and tight as a | 2:35:20 | 2:35:24 | |
group of players. | 2:35:24 | 2:35:27 | |
For three days we played
some excellent cricket. | 2:35:27 | 2:35:29 | |
Unfortunately when we got into good
positions we didn't quite capitalise | 2:35:29 | 2:35:32 | |
on that and if we'd done
that we would have seen a very | 2:35:32 | 2:35:35 | |
different scoreboard
sat here right now. | 2:35:35 | 2:35:37 | |
The post-match press conference
was dominated not by the cricket | 2:35:37 | 2:35:43 | |
but by accusations that
Jonny Bairstow had headbutted | 2:35:43 | 2:35:45 | |
Australian opener Cameron Bancroft
on a night out in Perth at the start | 2:35:45 | 2:35:48 | |
of the tour a few weeks ago. | 2:35:48 | 2:35:53 | |
This is alleged to have happened a
month ago in Perth. Both players | 2:35:53 | 2:35:58 | |
involved address the media, and
Bairstow said the incident had been | 2:35:58 | 2:36:02 | |
blown completely out of proportion. | 2:36:02 | 2:36:06 | |
We were just in the bar having
a good laugh and a good evening out. | 2:36:06 | 2:36:10 | |
It was very enjoyable. | 2:36:10 | 2:36:13 | |
Cameron and I enjoyed the evening
and continued to do so. | 2:36:13 | 2:36:16 | |
No intent or malice about anything
during the evening. | 2:36:16 | 2:36:22 | |
He connected with my head, and, you
know, with a force that would make | 2:36:22 | 2:36:29 | |
me think, that's a bit weird. That
was it. I would just like to say | 2:36:29 | 2:36:36 | |
good morning to the lovely view of
who has written in already to say | 2:36:36 | 2:36:39 | |
that her husband and son head-butt
each other most mornings as a form | 2:36:39 | 2:36:43 | |
of affection, it is like a greeting.
It is a bit like a hug, a very | 2:36:43 | 2:36:48 | |
gentle little head-butt, so maybe it
was that. | 2:36:48 | 2:36:50 | |
That's a different way of looking at
it! | 2:36:50 | 2:36:55 | |
I thought you were going to say, a
viewer, David Walliams. Or the one | 2:36:55 | 2:37:02 | |
viewer who is watching the show!
We love him so much, we have given | 2:37:02 | 2:37:06 | |
him a place on the sofa. Would you
like to stay? I would, please. What | 2:37:06 | 2:37:11 | |
do you think of Pep Guardiola and
Manchester City? Who? | 2:37:11 | 2:37:19 | |
I will educate you! | 2:37:19 | 2:37:21 | |
Manchester City manager remain
unbeaten after coming from behind | 2:37:21 | 2:37:23 | |
against Huddersfield. | 2:37:23 | 2:37:24 | |
Raheem Sterling was the match winner
for City with just six | 2:37:24 | 2:37:27 | |
minutes left in the game. | 2:37:27 | 2:37:28 | |
Their lead at the top of the table
now eight points over | 2:37:28 | 2:37:31 | |
rivals Manchester United. | 2:37:31 | 2:37:32 | |
Everton are two points off
the Premier League relegation zone | 2:37:32 | 2:37:34 | |
after suffering another heavy defeat
under caretaker manager | 2:37:34 | 2:37:36 | |
David Unsworth. | 2:37:36 | 2:37:37 | |
Steven Davis wrapped up a 4-1
victory for Southampton yesterday. | 2:37:37 | 2:37:45 | |
Arsenal move up to fourth
after an injury-time penalty | 2:37:45 | 2:37:47 | |
against Burnley at Turf Moor. | 2:37:47 | 2:37:48 | |
Alexis Sanchez scored the goal
that moves them ahead | 2:37:48 | 2:37:51 | |
of North London rivals Tottenham. | 2:37:51 | 2:37:52 | |
Celtic have won their fourth
domestic trophy in a row - | 2:37:52 | 2:37:54 | |
as they retained the Scottish League
Cup. | 2:37:54 | 2:37:56 | |
James Forrest put them on their way
to a 2-0 win over Motherwell. | 2:37:56 | 2:37:59 | |
Celtic are now 65 domestic
games now without defeat. | 2:37:59 | 2:38:01 | |
Hibernian completed the cup double
for the second year running | 2:38:01 | 2:38:04 | |
with a 3-0 victory over Glasgow City
in the Women's Scottish Cup final. | 2:38:04 | 2:38:10 | |
And finally, Valtteri Bottas took
the honours ahead of Mercedes team | 2:38:10 | 2:38:12 | |
mate Lewis Hamilton in the final
race of the Formula One | 2:38:12 | 2:38:15 | |
season in Abu Dhabi. | 2:38:15 | 2:38:16 | |
The Finn completed the hat-trick
of pole position, fastest lap | 2:38:16 | 2:38:18 | |
and race win as he claimed his third
victory of the year. | 2:38:18 | 2:38:22 | |
Sebastian Vettel finished third
which was enough to secure | 2:38:22 | 2:38:28 | |
the runners-up spot
in the drivers' championship, | 2:38:28 | 2:38:30 | |
which Hamilton had already won. | 2:38:30 | 2:38:33 | |
David Walliams, I am now going to
give you a list of questions about | 2:38:33 | 2:38:36 | |
the bulletin. There is too much
sport! The football just goes on and | 2:38:36 | 2:38:42 | |
on and on. Why do they just decide
who is the best team and stop? | 2:38:42 | 2:38:46 | |
Because that's the end of the fun!
What about your swimming challenges? | 2:38:46 | 2:38:51 | |
That's like saying, don't bother
with... Well, they were wonderful! | 2:38:51 | 2:38:57 | |
That's like saying, don't bother
with a challenge, I've done it. But | 2:38:57 | 2:39:00 | |
there is a lot of sport, I can't
keep up. You are here to talk about | 2:39:00 | 2:39:04 | |
your books in a minute. Yes. Do you
still swim now, or not? I swam here | 2:39:04 | 2:39:11 | |
this morning! I do swim, but Justin
swimming pools rather than the sea. | 2:39:11 | 2:39:19 | |
Or the whole length of a river. You
have been doing Facebook live for us | 2:39:19 | 2:39:23 | |
as well, and we have some questions
from our younger viewers. This is to | 2:39:23 | 2:39:29 | |
celebrate your tenth book. Tenth
novel. I think there are 18 books. | 2:39:29 | 2:39:39 | |
Tenth novel, Bad Dad. For those who
have been on the journey with you | 2:39:39 | 2:39:47 | |
between The Boy In The Dress, And
Ratberger and so on. This is about a | 2:39:47 | 2:39:58 | |
boy whose dad is sent to prison, and
he springs him out of prison for the | 2:39:58 | 2:40:02 | |
night so that they can put the money
back and move on with their lives. | 2:40:02 | 2:40:06 | |
And once again it has fabulous
illustrations. Yes, by Tony Ross. | 2:40:06 | 2:40:13 | |
How important are they for the book?
Really important, because I remember | 2:40:13 | 2:40:17 | |
as a kid picking up books in the
library, because my mum and dad used | 2:40:17 | 2:40:22 | |
to take me and my sister every two
weeks, and you flip through a look | 2:40:22 | 2:40:25 | |
at the pictures and decide whether
you think it is an exciting story or | 2:40:25 | 2:40:28 | |
not. And there aren't enough
pictures all the pictures look | 2:40:28 | 2:40:30 | |
boring, you wouldn't it
off-the-shelf. So I think it is | 2:40:30 | 2:40:35 | |
really important. I have a nephew
who is 11 call Eddie, and sometimes | 2:40:35 | 2:40:39 | |
he looks at books with loads of text
and says it looks a bit hard, and it | 2:40:39 | 2:40:43 | |
is much more fun if you can play
with the text on the design and have | 2:40:43 | 2:40:48 | |
illustrations so that those more
reluctant readers are not | 2:40:48 | 2:40:51 | |
intimidated by them. We mention
Roald Dahl earlier on, and the | 2:40:51 | 2:40:55 | |
illustrations in his books were
crucial as well, and also the use of | 2:40:55 | 2:40:59 | |
humour to deal with quite serious
subjects, which is again something | 2:40:59 | 2:41:02 | |
that you do your own books. I think
it is really important. There | 2:41:02 | 2:41:06 | |
shouldn't be any subject that you
can't deal with in some ways in a | 2:41:06 | 2:41:13 | |
children's book. In Grampa's Great
Escape | 2:41:13 | 2:41:18 | |
children's book. In Grampa's Great
Escape, I deal with Alzheimer's, I | 2:41:18 | 2:41:22 | |
don't give it that name, but it is
balanced with The Great Escape story | 2:41:22 | 2:41:28 | |
from an old people's home, so I felt
I could deal with the subject as | 2:41:28 | 2:41:32 | |
long as I had something which was
more entertaining going on as well. | 2:41:32 | 2:41:35 | |
I saw something about Roald Dahl and
how he used to write, he had a very | 2:41:35 | 2:41:39 | |
particular kind of things that he
had to do, be in the right place and | 2:41:39 | 2:41:42 | |
all rest of it, do you have a
special place to write, does the pen | 2:41:42 | 2:41:47 | |
have to be a certain way, how does
it work for you? I sit at a | 2:41:47 | 2:41:51 | |
computer! I just need to be alone,
and the thing about Roald Dahl and | 2:41:51 | 2:42:00 | |
obviously everyone talks about his
shed and I have been to see it, what | 2:42:00 | 2:42:05 | |
he obviously really wanted was
solitude, and so I think that is | 2:42:05 | 2:42:09 | |
what is very important when you are
trying to write, because you're | 2:42:09 | 2:42:13 | |
trying to imagine, I liken it to
this. You are trying to remember a | 2:42:13 | 2:42:17 | |
film you've never seen. And so you
are alone with your thoughts, and | 2:42:17 | 2:42:21 | |
you try to picture ever then write
it down, so if you got loads of | 2:42:21 | 2:42:25 | |
distractions, it breaks your
concentration. So no phone, no | 2:42:25 | 2:42:29 | |
e-mail. That's the idea. I just need
to research this thing, and then | 2:42:29 | 2:42:36 | |
suddenly you are watching YouTube
videos, and you think, how did I get | 2:42:36 | 2:42:42 | |
to this? As much discipline as you
can create for yourself, the better. | 2:42:42 | 2:42:45 | |
Would you like a question from
Ellie? Hi, David. I really love your | 2:42:45 | 2:42:54 | |
books, I've nearly got the whole
collection. What is your favourite | 2:42:54 | 2:43:02 | |
book that you've wrote? My favourite
is The World's Worst Children one. I | 2:43:02 | 2:43:12 | |
hope you have a nice day. Goodbye.
How lovely is she? So sweet. My | 2:43:12 | 2:43:18 | |
favourite book that I've written, I
would say that is Harry Potter And | 2:43:18 | 2:43:24 | |
The Philosopher's Stone, which I
wrote under a pseudonym! Well, you | 2:43:24 | 2:43:31 | |
want to think that you are getting
better as a writer, so you want to | 2:43:31 | 2:43:34 | |
think that your latest book brings
all the elements together, but they | 2:43:34 | 2:43:38 | |
are all special for different
reasons, Gangsta Granny is a special | 2:43:38 | 2:43:48 | |
one, and Mr Stink. And now you are a
dad, has that changed your writing? | 2:43:48 | 2:43:58 | |
It just means that I have less time!
The good thing is I have nephews, | 2:43:58 | 2:44:03 | |
and my son, and because of the
success of the books, I meet lots of | 2:44:03 | 2:44:06 | |
kids, so you are a little more in
touch of what kids find funny or | 2:44:06 | 2:44:10 | |
scary or interesting, so it does
help you a bit with your writing. | 2:44:10 | 2:44:15 | |
And in the books, they tend to have
a timeless feel, because you don't | 2:44:15 | 2:44:18 | |
talk about modern technology to much
or things like Facebook, which I | 2:44:18 | 2:44:22 | |
would imagine means it would hold up
in 25 years. Is that something you | 2:44:22 | 2:44:27 | |
have done consciously? I have,
because I go into schools around the | 2:44:27 | 2:44:33 | |
country, and I have been around the
world, Australia, New Zealand, | 2:44:33 | 2:44:38 | |
Canada, allows kids about what books
they lie, and dimension Charlie And | 2:44:38 | 2:44:42 | |
The Chocolate Factory, and everyone
knows that book, and it was written | 2:44:42 | 2:44:48 | |
over 50 years ago, and Roald Dahl
died 25 years ago, yet it feels | 2:44:48 | 2:44:52 | |
completely contemporary kids. And so
I think it is a mistake to put into | 2:44:52 | 2:44:57 | |
many modern references, because it
does just date really quickly, you | 2:44:57 | 2:45:01 | |
think it won't, but things that were
current ten years ago have been | 2:45:01 | 2:45:06 | |
completely forgotten, kids are not
necessarily looking back to those | 2:45:06 | 2:45:09 | |
things, either. When you are
writing, because lots of them have | 2:45:09 | 2:45:13 | |
been adapted, and we are going to
watch this clip from Boy In The | 2:45:13 | 2:45:19 | |
Dress while we are talking. Do you
think that this is the characterise | 2:45:19 | 2:45:23 | |
going to play? I am not that
egotistical. I know having met me | 2:45:23 | 2:45:30 | |
you think I might be, but I really
wanted to play Bert in Ratberger, | 2:45:30 | 2:45:37 | |
because I had so much fun playing
this character, he is the evil | 2:45:37 | 2:45:42 | |
villain, and I used to love reading
bits from the book to kids at | 2:45:42 | 2:45:46 | |
events. And so I was thinking that I
really wanted to, and Harry Enfield | 2:45:46 | 2:45:52 | |
said, I would really love to play
it, and I was thinking, no, you | 2:45:52 | 2:45:55 | |
would be too good! So I played the
sun in Grampa's Great Escape. It is | 2:45:55 | 2:46:03 | |
nice to be in them, but I am also
really lucky to have all these | 2:46:03 | 2:46:07 | |
brilliant actors, proper actors,
people like Sir Tom Courtenay. And | 2:46:07 | 2:46:14 | |
Sheridan Smith is in Ratberger. | 2:46:14 | 2:46:21 | |
It has worked out that way, it seems
greedy but sky wants to make Rat | 2:46:21 | 2:46:32 | |
Burger and the BBC wanted to make
Grandpa's Great Escape. Can ask | 2:46:32 | 2:46:44 | |
about Kim Jong-un? When you does to
buzzards and people were offended. | 2:46:44 | 2:46:49 | |
Two people were on Twitter. We are
easily offended these days. I am | 2:46:49 | 2:46:56 | |
more offended by what Kim Jong-un
does, not by somebody being dressed | 2:46:56 | 2:47:00 | |
up him. Shall we leave it? We have
done football, swimming, books and | 2:47:00 | 2:47:06 | |
North Korea as well! With humour, I
think the thing is, when you think | 2:47:06 | 2:47:11 | |
about a film like Life of Brian, if
your faith is important to you, do | 2:47:11 | 2:47:17 | |
you like that film? I can offer did.
Not every Christian code, does that | 2:47:17 | 2:47:22 | |
mean that the film should not exist?
No, it makes you challenge what you | 2:47:22 | 2:47:29 | |
believe. So you are balancing all
the time between potentially | 2:47:29 | 2:47:40 | |
offending people and making people
laugh. And your faith should be | 2:47:40 | 2:47:42 | |
strong enough not to be rocked by
something like that. That is | 2:47:42 | 2:47:45 | |
important. If you can't joke about
everything you can't have him | 2:47:45 | 2:47:47 | |
because somebody can't make a joke
saying that you cannot joke about | 2:47:47 | 2:47:50 | |
this and this and this because then
humour has no place. Very | 2:47:50 | 2:47:53 | |
interesting thought. Thank you for a
wide ranging discussion, David. | 2:47:53 | 2:48:02 | |
David Walliams's latest book is
called Bad Dad. And lots of TV this | 2:48:02 | 2:48:08 | |
Christmas. Do you want to do the
weather as well? | 2:48:08 | 2:48:11 | |
Here's Matt with a look
at this morning's weather. | 2:48:11 | 2:48:15 | |
Here's Matt with a look
at this morning's weather. | 2:48:15 | 2:48:20 | |
Thank you, a bit of a soggy start
but temperatures are still around 9 | 2:48:20 | 2:48:25 | |
degrees, probably the highest all
week because the forecast shows a | 2:48:25 | 2:48:29 | |
week which has more of a wintry
feel, it will be cold, a mixture of | 2:48:29 | 2:48:33 | |
sunshine and showers across the UK,
and those showers at times will have | 2:48:33 | 2:48:37 | |
some sleet and snow as well. Sleet
and snow are limited to the far | 2:48:37 | 2:48:42 | |
north, in the south it's raining,
southern England still wet at the | 2:48:42 | 2:48:46 | |
moment and also windy. That rain now
spreading to the Channel islands | 2:48:46 | 2:48:50 | |
where it will be windy and wet to
match Of The Day, temperatures | 2:48:50 | 2:48:55 | |
11-12d, had further north, you
notice single figure temperatures, | 2:48:55 | 2:48:59 | |
cold air pushing back south at the
moment, sunshine breaking through | 2:48:59 | 2:49:03 | |
towards parts of the Midlands,
Wales, northwards, showers scattered | 2:49:03 | 2:49:09 | |
around, north-west England, Scotland
and Northern Ireland, of a higher | 2:49:09 | 2:49:12 | |
ground sleet and snow mixed. Longer
spells of rain, sleet and snow in | 2:49:12 | 2:49:18 | |
north-east Scotland, and especially
raw day with strong winds of 60 | 2:49:18 | 2:49:22 | |
miles an hour at times. Swear
blustery, most places will brighten | 2:49:22 | 2:49:26 | |
after a cloudy start in the South
but will stick with rain and the | 2:49:26 | 2:49:32 | |
challenge to egg Channel Islands
into the afternoon -- elsewhere | 2:49:32 | 2:49:35 | |
blustery. The most areas
temperatures will drop as the North | 2:49:35 | 2:49:38 | |
West and winced again. Some showers
across South East Scotland and | 2:49:38 | 2:49:44 | |
eastern England. Tonight showers
will quickly fade for many, | 2:49:44 | 2:49:49 | |
south-west England will see a spell
of heavy rain taking us into the | 2:49:49 | 2:49:52 | |
evening rush-hour, that will clear
beneficial was to coastal parts of | 2:49:52 | 2:49:56 | |
the north and West through the night
into the morning, most places dry, | 2:49:56 | 2:50:01 | |
clear and chilly. Frost may not be
extensive because we've got too much | 2:50:01 | 2:50:05 | |
breeze, that will keep temperatures
are artificial and around 1-3dC but | 2:50:05 | 2:50:10 | |
you will notice the chilly tomorrow,
at least for most a dry and sunny | 2:50:10 | 2:50:16 | |
start to the morning, tomorrow
eastern Scotland come eastern | 2:50:16 | 2:50:19 | |
England, this is where we will see
showers become more abundant into | 2:50:19 | 2:50:23 | |
the afternoon. Some heavy hail,
thunder, sleet and Hill snow | 2:50:23 | 2:50:26 | |
possible as well and the winds at
their strongest stammers eastern | 2:50:26 | 2:50:36 | |
coasts, that will add to the
wind-chill, making it feel closer to | 2:50:36 | 2:50:38 | |
freezing in the afternoon across
eastern areas. Tomorrow dry, same | 2:50:38 | 2:50:40 | |
again on Wednesday, parts of
southern England, the Midlands into | 2:50:40 | 2:50:44 | |
North West England, south-west
Scotland, most likely to see showers | 2:50:44 | 2:50:49 | |
again eastern counties of England,
eastern Scotland where the wind will | 2:50:49 | 2:50:53 | |
be strongest, feeling particularly
raw, the cold wind still with us | 2:50:53 | 2:50:59 | |
into Thursday, temperatures around
3-4dC for many parts of the country | 2:50:59 | 2:51:03 | |
on Thursday. Definitely a week to
use those winter bargains you'll | 2:51:03 | 2:51:06 | |
have bought at the weekend, jackets,
gloves, scarves, the whole thing. | 2:51:06 | 2:51:10 | |
Bacterial! | 2:51:10 | 2:51:15 | |
Thank you, we'll be dressed and
ready. | 2:51:15 | 2:51:17 | |
Thank you, we'll be dressed and
ready. | 2:51:17 | 2:51:26 | |
Louise can't tell her head, Matt,
because she has hurt her neck! The | 2:51:28 | 2:51:33 | |
lady is not for turning, today.
High-tech industries from | 2:51:33 | 2:51:38 | |
pharmaceuticals to robotics and
chemistry and engineering are to | 2:51:38 | 2:51:43 | |
receive a boost in funding and
training. Sean has recovered and is | 2:51:43 | 2:51:47 | |
talking about a factory that makes
things have factories. Good morning. | 2:51:47 | 2:51:51 | |
Good morning. Incredible hypnotic
robot, that is not its job, and just | 2:51:51 | 2:51:59 | |
hypnotised by it. You just watch and
making a car panel 4-door. That's | 2:51:59 | 2:52:05 | |
just one of many different types of
robots and 3-D printers, right | 2:52:05 | 2:52:10 | |
across the huge manufacturing
technology Centre in Coventry, kind | 2:52:10 | 2:52:13 | |
of an example of what the government
would like to see implemented with | 2:52:13 | 2:52:18 | |
industrial strategy, getting
together the ideas, skills, business | 2:52:18 | 2:52:22 | |
investment, government policy, all
focused on certain areas, trying to | 2:52:22 | 2:52:25 | |
grow Britain in the years to come.
One key part of that is skills and | 2:52:25 | 2:52:30 | |
people. Here a couple of people on
apprenticeship schemes, morning | 2:52:30 | 2:52:35 | |
Jack, and Tilly. Tilly, how did you
end up on an apprenticeship scheme | 2:52:35 | 2:52:41 | |
here, when you were 16 when you had
to choose? 18. When I left school I | 2:52:41 | 2:52:47 | |
did a two-year college course, I did
motor vehicles so I was in that | 2:52:47 | 2:52:52 | |
area. I went into engineering
because there was a wider range of | 2:52:52 | 2:52:55 | |
jobs available. When I was
approached at college I decided to | 2:52:55 | 2:53:03 | |
take the apprenticeship and now I am
on my third year. Why did you choose | 2:53:03 | 2:53:07 | |
this over other options? Offended
more interesting, the technology | 2:53:07 | 2:53:11 | |
available here was much more open
and got what I wanted to do. I | 2:53:11 | 2:53:16 | |
wanted to go into robot programming
and that is why I'm in the | 2:53:16 | 2:53:20 | |
automation Department. It seems
there is no better place to be for a | 2:53:20 | 2:53:26 | |
robot programming. Jack, you are
almost at the end of your | 2:53:26 | 2:53:28 | |
apprenticeship and started working
with the business. How has it been | 2:53:28 | 2:53:32 | |
over three or four years? Really
good. I've learned a lot of new | 2:53:32 | 2:53:37 | |
skills through the apprenticeship
and then it was a big step moving | 2:53:37 | 2:53:41 | |
onto the company I work for now,
they've basically carried on my | 2:53:41 | 2:53:47 | |
skills, further education and
hopefully this year next February #. | 2:53:47 | 2:53:51 | |
For your apprenticeship. And was the
plan then? I will complete an agency | 2:53:51 | 2:53:58 | |
that my company has pushed me
forward to do and after that I | 2:53:58 | 2:54:01 | |
become an application engineer for
the company. Does everybody follow | 2:54:01 | 2:54:07 | |
the same kind of path? Yes,
currently I'm doing age and see at | 2:54:07 | 2:54:14 | |
Solihull College, won a finished
that I will be a technician here and | 2:54:14 | 2:54:18 | |
hopefully go on to robot programming
and trainer that field. I can't move | 2:54:18 | 2:54:24 | |
on until I point out that you can't
adjust to and were a medal, what was | 2:54:24 | 2:54:30 | |
it? Last week I competed in the
world skills show, it brings in | 2:54:30 | 2:54:37 | |
engineers into a competition. That
type of robot? Machine cutting. | 2:54:37 | 2:54:42 | |
There's also the competitions for
different apprentices but I competed | 2:54:42 | 2:54:49 | |
so I got a silver medal last week.
Congratulations. I'm in the UK | 2:54:49 | 2:54:56 | |
squads so I'll compete in
international tournament hopefully | 2:54:56 | 2:54:58 | |
in the next two years following
training from my company and the | 2:54:58 | 2:55:03 | |
sales team. , That might see the
thing we see Steph doing, watch out | 2:55:03 | 2:55:09 | |
for her! When she is a fan of those
championships. Jack is clearly done | 2:55:09 | 2:55:14 | |
well. Hello, Clive Camille Cotman by
surprise. You run this whole thing, | 2:55:14 | 2:55:19 | |
you are and chief executive of the
MDC. What can the industrial | 2:55:19 | 2:55:23 | |
strategy and the people carrying it
out and learn from what you guys do | 2:55:23 | 2:55:27 | |
here? I think the key thing is being
able to get industry, academia and | 2:55:27 | 2:55:35 | |
the translational research things
are all working together in | 2:55:35 | 2:55:36 | |
partnership to bring through really
good ideas that are coming from | 2:55:36 | 2:55:42 | |
academia, converting them into
products and processes that can be | 2:55:42 | 2:55:46 | |
adopted by industry and to try to do
that at a much faster pace. So it's | 2:55:46 | 2:55:51 | |
the investment in the translational
work that becomes important | 2:55:51 | 2:55:55 | |
alongside the work invested by the
academics. If I take you here, and | 2:55:55 | 2:56:02 | |
we join Nick, we can see, this
machine, can you just explain, how | 2:56:02 | 2:56:10 | |
your setup here, how the industrial
strategy can learn from a robot, | 2:56:10 | 2:56:15 | |
like this? How can it be used. This
robot in particular is an | 2:56:15 | 2:56:20 | |
interactive robot. So rather than
just doing a fixed set of work we | 2:56:20 | 2:56:26 | |
have added lasers and optics to this
robot so that it can now do | 2:56:26 | 2:56:30 | |
multitasking. When you start to use
robots multitasking they become much | 2:56:30 | 2:56:37 | |
more intelligent is a piece of
equipment, so that they can do many | 2:56:37 | 2:56:41 | |
things rather than one thing. Got
you. Nick, just before we go, this | 2:56:41 | 2:56:48 | |
is the kind of industrial strategy
is from many governments, they've | 2:56:48 | 2:56:52 | |
got Brexit to sort out, is this the
right thing to right now? Maher it's | 2:56:52 | 2:56:57 | |
clearly important to try to dig
advantage of opportunities that will | 2:56:57 | 2:57:00 | |
occur as a result of Brexit. But at
the moment we don't know what those | 2:57:00 | 2:57:04 | |
will be because we don't know what
our future trading relationship with | 2:57:04 | 2:57:08 | |
the EU will be. Server strategy
needs to be flexible enough to | 2:57:08 | 2:57:13 | |
account for the significant changes
we are likely to see in the next few | 2:57:13 | 2:57:17 | |
years. Surely automation, robots,
whatever kind of trade deal that is, | 2:57:17 | 2:57:22 | |
this will happen. These will all be
valuable things to invest in, I | 2:57:22 | 2:57:29 | |
think the important thing is
consistency, we had three industrial | 2:57:29 | 2:57:33 | |
strategies in ten years, is in
further education we've seen 20 | 2:57:33 | 2:57:37 | |
pieces of legislation invidious. The
government needs a long-term plan | 2:57:37 | 2:57:42 | |
and needs to prioritise, it just
can't be a list of existing | 2:57:42 | 2:57:46 | |
policies. Thank you, Nick, that will
have to be the big thing for the | 2:57:46 | 2:57:50 | |
government, making sure that they
prioritise. Meanwhile all those | 2:57:50 | 2:57:54 | |
Brexit talks and keeping the
business, what will all those trade | 2:57:54 | 2:57:59 | |
deals look like, carry on in next
three years. Thank you, John, I love | 2:57:59 | 2:58:03 | |
the way that you were ambushed by
your own guest! You never know, do | 2:58:03 | 2:58:07 | |
you! They come from everywhere.
Thank you, Sean. It's just coming up | 2:58:07 | 2:58:14 | |
to nine o'clock. | 2:58:14 | 2:58:16 | |
There are fears children
with special needs are being let | 2:58:16 | 2:58:18 | |
down by the education system. | 2:58:18 | 2:58:19 | |
An exclusive investigation for BBC
Breakfast has found a 57% increase | 2:58:19 | 2:58:22 | |
in the number of children
being educated at home. | 2:58:22 | 2:58:24 | |
We have been told that some families
believe this is their only option. | 2:58:24 | 2:58:33 | |
Today we launch a week-long series
looking at what life is like for our | 2:58:33 | 2:58:36 | |
most vulnerable children. | 2:58:36 | 2:58:37 | |
In the first of our special reports,
our Education Editor Branwen | 2:58:37 | 2:58:41 | |
Jeffreys joins us again. | 2:58:41 | 2:58:45 | |
Four people fresh to this, take us
through the figures. We wanted to | 2:58:45 | 2:58:49 | |
find out what was happening to the
children with the most severe and | 2:58:49 | 2:58:54 | |
complex needs, either they have a
statement in Wales, England, | 2:58:54 | 2:58:58 | |
Northern Ireland or they might have
one of the new education health care | 2:58:58 | 2:59:01 | |
plans. It's the new system coming
in. Just looking at only those | 2:59:01 | 2:59:05 | |
children be fined 1600 or home
educated for several reasons. Some | 2:59:05 | 2:59:10 | |
we know because families are taking
their children out of school, around | 2:59:10 | 2:59:15 | |
1000 did not have a school place at
all. So when we look at the average | 2:59:15 | 2:59:20 | |
waiting time is to get to school,
the waiting time was five months. | 2:59:20 | 2:59:27 | |
That is a long time for a family to
not know what is happening to their | 2:59:27 | 2:59:31 | |
child's schooling. And all that time
the child is missing out in terms of | 2:59:31 | 2:59:36 | |
what they are learning. | 2:59:36 | 2:59:40 | |
I'm just looking at some of the
messages we are having, so many | 2:59:40 | 2:59:45 | |
people getting in touch. It is
having a big impact on people. There | 2:59:45 | 2:59:49 | |
are financial factors, although the
Government is putting in some extra | 2:59:49 | 2:59:53 | |
money. If you are a school that is
inclusive, you get a reputation for | 2:59:53 | 2:59:57 | |
being good at looking after children
with extra needs, then more children | 2:59:57 | 3:00:00 | |
will come to you, and you have to
give them a place, but you then have | 3:00:00 | 3:00:05 | |
to find £6,000 out of your budget to
look after their extra needs before | 3:00:05 | 3:00:12 | |
you can ask for any extra help. So
there are real financial pressures | 3:00:12 | 3:00:15 | |
in the system that reducing the
support that children can get. We | 3:00:15 | 3:00:17 | |
are going to be looking at this
throughout the week. We haven't had | 3:00:17 | 3:00:22 | |
any response from the government,
but that is not through lack of | 3:00:22 | 3:00:25 | |
trying. Nobody will come on in front
up about this at the moment. That's | 3:00:25 | 3:00:30 | |
right. I understand that in the six
weeks since we first asked for a | 3:00:30 | 3:00:33 | |
minister to come on and talk about
the many, many issues we are looking | 3:00:33 | 3:00:37 | |
into this week, everything from the
pressures on special schools or the | 3:00:37 | 3:00:41 | |
home education stuff we're talking
about today, of course there is | 3:00:41 | 3:00:44 | |
still the whole week. There are lots
of questions, we are lots of | 3:00:44 | 3:00:55 | |
questions, we're getting an amazing
response from families, as you know, | 3:00:55 | 3:00:57 | |
and I'm sure they would love to hear
from a Government minister about how | 3:00:57 | 3:01:00 | |
the system is working and whatever
that are being made. Thank you very | 3:01:00 | 3:01:03 | |
much, so many people getting in
touch. Faye from exercise, my son is | 3:01:03 | 3:01:05 | |
now in year eight, he has been
diagnosed with ADHD for four years, | 3:01:05 | 3:01:09 | |
he struggled with primaries call to
the point where he was removed from | 3:01:09 | 3:01:13 | |
mainstream classes. Listening to all
the other parent struggling to get | 3:01:13 | 3:01:15 | |
their children education, I feel
lucky. My son's School has an | 3:01:15 | 3:01:20 | |
excellent nurture programme for
struggling children with smaller and | 3:01:20 | 3:01:23 | |
quieter classes, so there are some
success stories out there. There | 3:01:23 | 3:01:27 | |
are, and we know that this is about
helping children fulfil their | 3:01:27 | 3:01:30 | |
potential. It may be different
potential, it may be unique to what | 3:01:30 | 3:01:40 | |
they can do, but there is no doubt
that with the right support, and we | 3:01:40 | 3:01:43 | |
are hearing that as well, that kids
can make fantastic progress. I heard | 3:01:43 | 3:01:45 | |
from a teaching assistant working in
an outstanding special school who | 3:01:45 | 3:01:47 | |
says that people are working above
and beyond giving loads of free | 3:01:47 | 3:01:50 | |
time, that she works with some
exceptional people who have got | 3:01:50 | 3:01:52 | |
amazing skills, but we are just
warehousing the children because we | 3:01:52 | 3:01:57 | |
don't have the funding facility to
allow them to flourish, so even | 3:01:57 | 3:02:00 | |
people who feel they are making a
difference are frustrated in the | 3:02:00 | 3:02:06 | |
system. And we will be looking at
that throughout the week. | 3:02:06 | 3:02:15 | |
If you want to get in contact
with your stories, you can | 3:02:15 | 3:02:18 | |
do so by emailing us
at [email protected] or you can | 3:02:18 | 3:02:20 | |

We have been talking about a
dangerous species, it is dad | 3:02:22 | 3:02:24 | |
dancing. A survey shows that three
quarters of men either never dance | 3:02:24 | 3:02:27 | |
at all, or do so only rarely,
because they say they are too | 3:02:27 | 3:02:31 | |
embarrassed. So in a bid to reverse
this trend, we have had a look | 3:02:31 | 3:02:35 | |
through the archives and found some
blokes who love to boogie, so if you | 3:02:35 | 3:02:39 | |
are embarrassed by dancing, look
away now. | 3:02:39 | 3:02:49 | |
# I Bet You Look Good
On The Dance Floor... | 3:02:49 | 3:02:52 | |
# | 3:02:52 | 3:02:55 | |
Can I dance? | 3:02:55 | 3:02:56 | |
No. | 3:02:56 | 3:02:57 | |
No, there you go. | 3:02:57 | 3:03:04 | |
I have got to a certain age where I
am allowed to dad dance, so I do it | 3:03:04 | 3:03:08 | |
at every opportunity. It is a bit
embarrassing. It has to be done. I | 3:03:08 | 3:03:18 | |
wouldn't be a dad if I wasn't
dancing! I have seen a lot of people | 3:03:18 | 3:03:23 | |
doing it, I don't know if I'm guilty
of doing it. I like it! He has been | 3:03:23 | 3:03:30 | |
known to move in a dancing sort of
fashion, I would say. Very pretty. I | 3:03:30 | 3:03:35 | |
would say bad. Go on! | 3:03:35 | 3:03:43 | |
That was more of a jump than adults,
I think! Thank you for some of your | 3:03:43 | 3:03:48 | |
videos. | 3:03:48 | 3:03:51 | |
This is more of a kitchen
rave than a kitchen | 3:03:51 | 3:03:53 | |
disco, sent in by Hugh. | 3:03:53 | 3:03:57 | |
Double dad dancing. They need a
whistle! And they are offered! | 3:03:57 | 3:04:07 | |
Clearly a misspent youth. | 3:04:07 | 3:04:13 | |
And back by popular request, this is
Tracy's video of her husband John | 3:04:13 | 3:04:17 | |
dancing to Michael Jackson's
Thriller with his daughter. I am | 3:04:17 | 3:04:27 | |
going to have a Sunday night disco,
I think. No, it is Monday night, | 3:04:27 | 3:04:31 | |
isn't it?
It is the loudness of his clapping | 3:04:31 | 3:04:37 | |
as well, and excellent pyjamas! Good
luck to all you dads dancing, and | 3:04:37 | 3:04:43 | |
just remember it is just about the
enjoyment. | 3:04:43 | 3:04:46 | |
You don't need to send in a video,
just do it for the enjoyment! In a | 3:04:46 | 3:04:55 | |
moment, we will be meeting Joyce
DiDonato, but first a last look at | 3:04:55 | 3:04:58 | |
the | 3:04:58 | 3:06:30 | |
with a top temperature of 10
Celsius. And I | 3:06:30 | 3:06:30 | |
with a top temperature of 10
Celsius. And I will be back at | 3:06:30 | 3:06:32 | |
1:30pm with the lunchtime news, I do
hope you can join me then. Goodbye. | 3:06:32 | 3:06:37 | |
Welcome back, you are watching
Breakfast. | 3:06:48 | 3:06:50 | |
From a childhood dream
to sing on Broadway, | 3:06:50 | 3:06:53 | |
to becoming an award winning opera
star - singing was always | 3:06:53 | 3:06:55 | |
going to feature heavily
in the life of our next guest. | 3:06:55 | 3:06:58 | |
It's that passion that has taken
Joyce DiDonato from the world's most | 3:06:58 | 3:07:01 | |
famous opera houses to performing
with at refugee camps in Greece. | 3:07:01 | 3:07:03 | |
Joyce joins us in a moment,
but first, let's remind ourselves | 3:07:03 | 3:07:06 | |
of her incredible voice. | 3:07:06 | 3:07:10 | |
That has just calmed me down
beautifully. | 3:07:58 | 3:08:00 | |
We could happily listen to that for
the rest of the day! Thank you for | 3:08:00 | 3:08:05 | |
coming to see us. We will take you
back first if we can bit, because | 3:08:05 | 3:08:10 | |
you didn't come to opera singing
early on like some people do, but | 3:08:10 | 3:08:13 | |
you didn't? My singing when I was
young was with a hairbrush in the | 3:08:13 | 3:08:18 | |
mirror, secretly hoping somebody
would hear me, but dying of | 3:08:18 | 3:08:21 | |
embarrassment if they did. I loved
music and singing, I grew up in a | 3:08:21 | 3:08:26 | |
musical family, but growing up in
Kansas City, it was never a dream to | 3:08:26 | 3:08:30 | |
be a star, because that seemed
really far away. So I went to | 3:08:30 | 3:08:35 | |
college to be a high school music
teacher, I saw the special education | 3:08:35 | 3:08:40 | |
lady here earlier, and I thought,
that could have been me, that was | 3:08:40 | 3:08:44 | |
the track that I was on. But there
is something about the world of | 3:08:44 | 3:08:49 | |
opera that absolutely grabbed me,
heart and soul, and still has not | 3:08:49 | 3:08:54 | |
let go. So what was the breakthrough
moment? Who said, hold on a minute, | 3:08:54 | 3:08:58 | |
we need to get her on stage? I wish
there had been won. I was this very | 3:08:58 | 3:09:04 | |
boring example of slow and steady
wins the race. And if I remove any | 3:09:04 | 3:09:09 | |
domino of that effect, I wouldn't be
here. But there wasn't actually a | 3:09:09 | 3:09:12 | |
single one. When the opportunities
did come, my training put me in a | 3:09:12 | 3:09:18 | |
position to be ready. So I was ready
when it hit. We're just looking at | 3:09:18 | 3:09:22 | |
you here. Is this the Albert Hall?
This is Last Night Of The Proms it | 3:09:22 | 3:09:31 | |
must be extraordinary to be at that.
It is intoxicating, when you walk | 3:09:31 | 3:09:35 | |
out, every body had Tommy, there is
nothing like it, and I had some at | 3:09:35 | 3:09:39 | |
the Proms before, but that is not
the same as the last night, and it | 3:09:39 | 3:09:44 | |
is this euphoric wall of celebration
and joy, and excitement that I can't | 3:09:44 | 3:09:51 | |
put into words. I will never forget
that night. That is a huge | 3:09:51 | 3:09:56 | |
production, but your latest album is
250 musicians. I am struggling to | 3:09:56 | 3:10:02 | |
picture how big that is. What is
that like is a production to be part | 3:10:02 | 3:10:06 | |
of? It was extraordinary. We had
three different choirs, 200 plus | 3:10:06 | 3:10:12 | |
musicians, including six harps at
one point. Get me six harps! I think | 3:10:12 | 3:10:19 | |
that sixth harpist is the one who
probably never get tired. This is | 3:10:19 | 3:10:23 | |
part of this five act epic opera
called Les Troyens of Berlioz, and | 3:10:23 | 3:10:34 | |
nobody had ever seen work composed
like this before, and he died before | 3:10:34 | 3:10:40 | |
he could see it put on the stage. He
spent so much of his life making | 3:10:40 | 3:10:44 | |
this epic masterpiece, and this was
extraordinary. We did two concerts | 3:10:44 | 3:10:50 | |
in Strasbourg and film for some DVD
excerpts, and this audio recording. | 3:10:50 | 3:10:55 | |
Staggering. And as well as
performing those types of | 3:10:55 | 3:10:58 | |
environments, you have been
performing as well with refugee | 3:10:58 | 3:11:02 | |
children. We can see a clip of this. | 3:11:02 | 3:11:06 | |
So, tell us where you were and who
the children were. This is in | 3:11:35 | 3:11:40 | |
Athens, and later that night, it was
during Ramadan, we went to a refugee | 3:11:40 | 3:11:46 | |
camp and we performed there. These
are extraordinary kids that are part | 3:11:46 | 3:11:53 | |
of else's in Greece, and you have
this whole mix of nationalities | 3:11:53 | 3:12:03 | |
together, and they are bringing in
Greek children as well from the | 3:12:03 | 3:12:06 | |
local neighbourhoods to integrate
and get these beautiful children | 3:12:06 | 3:12:11 | |
side by side holding hands and
joining voices, learning each | 3:12:11 | 3:12:14 | |
other's folk songs, singing
together. It is part of a project | 3:12:14 | 3:12:21 | |
called In War And Peace, Harmony
Three Music which is what I have | 3:12:21 | 3:12:25 | |
done, is there a way through music
that we can try to cut down | 3:12:25 | 3:12:32 | |
division, bring people together and
find harmony, and I'm finding it not | 3:12:32 | 3:12:37 | |
only possible, it's thriving. And
you used to do prison singing in the | 3:12:37 | 3:12:40 | |
US, how does that go down? It is
extraordinary, and it is the same | 3:12:40 | 3:12:45 | |
concept. Give people the permission
and the chance to express | 3:12:45 | 3:12:48 | |
themselves, and connect to people.
At Singh -- Sing Sing, often they | 3:12:48 | 3:13:09 | |
are segregated, but this brings
everyone together, and one of them | 3:13:09 | 3:13:14 | |
has decided that he wants to write
an opera and he is composing it. Al | 3:13:14 | 3:13:18 | |
message this morning is, get out
there and dance, get out there and | 3:13:18 | 3:13:21 | |
sing. | 3:13:21 | 3:13:24 | |
Joyce's album is called Les Troyens. | 3:13:24 | 3:13:25 | |
That's all from us for today. | 3:13:25 | 3:13:27 | |
We'll both be here from six
tomorrow, until then | 3:13:27 | 3:13:29 | |
have a great day. | 3:13:29 | 3:13:30 | |
have a great day. | 3:13:30 | 3:13:31 | |
We will have more on our series
about special educational needs and | 3:13:31 | 3:13:34 | |
disabilities. Goodbye. | 3:13:34 | 3:13:36 |
