0:00:05 > 0:00:14Hello, this is Breakfast, with Dan Walker and Naga Munchetty.
0:00:14 > 0:00:17Police in Beirut investigate whether a British embassy worker
0:00:17 > 0:00:20found strangled at the side of a road had been sexually assaulted.
0:00:20 > 0:00:23It is believed Rebecca Dykes was abducted after leaving a bar
0:00:23 > 0:00:25on the outskirts of the city.
0:00:25 > 0:00:42Her family say they are devastated by her death.
0:00:42 > 0:00:45Theresa May meets her Brexit Cabinet to discuss, for the first time,
0:00:45 > 0:00:53the UK's future relationship with the EU.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56A father-of-six is the first of the victims to be named
0:00:56 > 0:00:58after a devastating car crash in Birmingham.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02It was a night of drama at the 2017 Sports Personality of the Year.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04A shock win for Britain's most successful track athlete
0:01:04 > 0:01:08was hampered by a few technical problems, but Sir Mo was delighted
0:01:08 > 0:01:24at finally getting his hands on the award.
0:01:24 > 0:01:28I didn't imagine I was ever going to win this.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31Come so close in 2012, but I guess anything can happen.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33Also in sport: Rain delays Australia's hopes of regaining
0:01:33 > 0:01:36the Ashes, but Bairstow has gone this morning,
0:01:36 > 0:01:38and the Aussies now need just five more England wickets
0:01:38 > 0:01:43to reclaim the urn.
0:01:43 > 0:01:49Good morning from this cream cracker factory in Liverpool.
0:01:49 > 0:01:52UK shoppers are predicted to spend over £4 billion on groceries this
0:01:52 > 0:01:56week, so it is the start of the busiest week of the year
0:01:56 > 0:01:57for food retailers and manufacturers.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00I'm live at this cracker factory in Liverpool to find out
0:02:00 > 0:02:01how they cope.
0:02:01 > 0:02:02And Matt has the weather.
0:02:02 > 0:02:06Good morning. Well, it is a frosty start to the new working week but
0:02:06 > 0:02:10mostly dry and sunny day to day. On the move, for that could be a big
0:02:10 > 0:02:14problem. I will tell you why in 15 minutes.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17Detectives in Lebanon are examining the possibility that a British
0:02:17 > 0:02:22Embassy worker whose body was found by a motorway was sexually
0:02:22 > 0:02:27assaulted. It is understood that Rebecca Dykes, who worked for the
0:02:27 > 0:02:30Department of development, had been strangled. Our correspondent reports
0:02:30 > 0:02:31from Beirut.
0:02:31 > 0:02:35Well, we understand that Rebecca Dykes on Friday evening
0:02:35 > 0:02:38was at a going away party for a colleague in a popular
0:02:38 > 0:02:39restaurant area of the city.
0:02:39 > 0:02:42And she left that bar around midnight, and some time after that,
0:02:42 > 0:02:44it was believed she was abducted.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47Her body was found dumped on the side of a motorway
0:02:47 > 0:02:49on Saturday morning, and police sources have told us
0:02:49 > 0:02:51that they believe Rebecca was strangled.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54Now, she'd been in the country for almost a year.
0:02:54 > 0:02:58She was working as a programme officer for the Department
0:02:58 > 0:03:04of International Development, and we've been hearing
0:03:04 > 0:03:07from the embassy, the British ambassador, here in Beirut.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10He said that the whole embassy was deeply shocked by the news,
0:03:10 > 0:03:13and he added that they were working closely with the Lebanese
0:03:13 > 0:03:21authorities, who are conducting this police investigation.
0:03:21 > 0:03:28And we will be live in Beirut just after seven a.m..
0:03:28 > 0:03:31Theresa May is due to meet her Brexit Cabinet today to discuss,
0:03:31 > 0:03:34for the first time, what the UK's future relationship
0:03:34 > 0:03:35with the EU should be.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38The Prime Minister will also address the Commons this afternoon
0:03:38 > 0:03:42to outline when she wants the UK to be able to sign trade deals
0:03:42 > 0:03:43with non-EU countries.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45Our political correspondent Ben Wright is in Westminster.
0:03:45 > 0:03:49Good morning to you. How important a day is this, in terms of the sets of
0:03:49 > 0:03:53meetings that she has got ahead? Good morning, a big day I think
0:03:53 > 0:03:56because 18 months after the EU referendum, the Cabinet is now
0:03:56 > 0:03:59finally getting around to talking about the sort of future
0:03:59 > 0:04:03relationship that Britain wants with the EU after we have left in March
0:04:03 > 0:04:0820 19. We know as part of the agreement that Theresa May got with
0:04:08 > 0:04:12the EU last week that they will be a two year so-called implementation
0:04:12 > 0:04:16phase during which everything stays as they are now, we won't have
0:04:16 > 0:04:19voting rights or MEPs but we effectively remain within the single
0:04:19 > 0:04:23market in the customs union and remain completely aligned
0:04:23 > 0:04:27economically. Now we will get onto the big issue of the future trade
0:04:27 > 0:04:37relationship they want. Cabinet is split on this. You have remained --
0:04:37 > 0:04:41remain supporting MPs like amber Rudd and Damian Green who will
0:04:41 > 0:04:44believe the UK and the EU should be as closely as possible aligned. On
0:04:44 > 0:04:50the other hand you have prominent leave supporters like Boris Johnson
0:04:50 > 0:04:55and Michael Gove, and I think you will see big disagreements within
0:04:55 > 0:05:03the Cabinet, as the government tries to figure out exactly what sort of
0:05:03 > 0:05:06relationship to ask for with the European Union. On the other side of
0:05:06 > 0:05:12the table, the EU must decide what they will enable the UK to have.
0:05:12 > 0:05:16The first of six victims killed in a multiple pile-up in Birmingham
0:05:16 > 0:05:18has been named as taxi driver Imtiaz Mohammed.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21The father-of-six had just told his wife he was on his last
0:05:21 > 0:05:23job, and was on his way home.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25Police are investigating how the crash happened,
0:05:25 > 0:05:29as Jane Frances Kelly reports.
0:05:29 > 0:05:35Debris can be seen strewn across four lanes in these pictures taken
0:05:35 > 0:05:39in the immediate aftermath of the crash. One of those who died in what
0:05:39 > 0:05:43is described as a harrowing scene has been named as taxi driver Imtiaz
0:05:43 > 0:05:48Mohammed, who was a father of six. He had called his wife to say it was
0:05:48 > 0:05:52his last job of the night, and that he would be on his way home shortly.
0:05:52 > 0:05:58Two passengers in Imtiaz Mohammed's taxi also died, but the man and the
0:05:58 > 0:06:02woman in a small car crushed between the taxi and the wall walked away
0:06:02 > 0:06:06with minor injuries. The crash happened on a section of the
0:06:06 > 0:06:09Belgrave Middle Way, a busy road in the heart of Birmingham. The
0:06:09 > 0:06:13vehicles collided at an entrance to an underpass at the Junction of
0:06:13 > 0:06:17Bristol Road. The road had to be close to allow the emergency
0:06:17 > 0:06:20services to safely examine the scene.It will take some time to
0:06:20 > 0:06:24unpick the scene and just understand exactly what has happened, and it
0:06:24 > 0:06:28would be unfair of me to speculate at this time. What I can say is that
0:06:28 > 0:06:32we are looking into all sorts of conditions, the road conditions. We
0:06:32 > 0:06:36are aware the road was greeted at 5pm last night, but obviously that
0:06:36 > 0:06:43is just one factor among many that we need to consider -- gritted.The
0:06:43 > 0:06:48police are trying to piece together the cause of the multicar crash.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51There has been major disruption at the world's busiest airport,
0:06:51 > 0:06:54in Atlanta in the United States, as a result of a power cut.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56Some passengers were left in darkened terminals
0:06:56 > 0:06:57at Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson airport.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59More than 1,000 flights have been cancelled,
0:06:59 > 0:07:01and many are being diverted elsewhere.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03The airport typically handles more than 250,000 passengers and almost
0:07:03 > 0:07:162,500 flights every day.
0:07:16 > 0:07:22I had no idea it was the busiest airport in the world.Me neither.
0:07:22 > 0:07:26Tens of thousands of people may be putting themselves at increased risk
0:07:26 > 0:07:28of dying early from heart attacks and strokes
0:07:28 > 0:07:29because they are misusing anabolic steroids.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32The British Cardiovascular Society has issued the stark warning
0:07:32 > 0:07:35amid concern steroids are now being used by more people than ever
0:07:35 > 0:07:38before, especially by young men, who feel under pressure
0:07:38 > 0:07:39to have the perfect body.
0:07:39 > 0:07:43As well as heart attacks and strokes, people who take
0:07:43 > 0:07:45anabolic steroids also risk health problems like infertility
0:07:45 > 0:07:49and mood swings.
0:07:49 > 0:07:54But those risks aren't putting users off.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57Everything that we do in life now carries a risk of heart attack,
0:07:57 > 0:07:59cancer, whatever it is.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02So, whatever it is, I'm going to get those risks anyway,
0:08:02 > 0:08:04so I choose not to do certain things, and I choose
0:08:04 > 0:08:06this as my lifestyle instead.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08So, as I don't go out drinking and smoking,
0:08:08 > 0:08:09I take steroids.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12When it comes to the law, anabolic steroids are legal to use
0:08:12 > 0:08:18and legal to possess right across the UK.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20What is illegal, though, is supplying them,
0:08:20 > 0:08:23unless you are a doctor, and if you are caught,
0:08:23 > 0:08:25you could face a prison sentence
0:08:25 > 0:08:28of up to 14 years.
0:08:28 > 0:08:32Anabolic steroids cause an imbalance of hormones which can damage many
0:08:32 > 0:08:34different organs, but in particular the heart.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37But that doesn't stop this man, who spoke on condition of anonymity,
0:08:37 > 0:08:38from dealing them.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41There's a very broad spectrum of people who use steroids.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44You're ranging from young 18-year-olds, 19-20,
0:08:44 > 0:08:47just starting out, and they're training and looking to bulk up
0:08:47 > 0:08:50for maybe a summer holiday, or just to look good for...
0:08:50 > 0:08:51For a summer holiday?
0:08:51 > 0:08:53For a summer holiday.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Or they just want to attract the girls.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57So these are the guys that you be more informative
0:08:57 > 0:08:59when you talk to them.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02Make them more aware of the risks and dangers.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05According to public health experts, hundreds of thousands of people
0:09:05 > 0:09:12are now using steroids.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15The group which advises government on drug misuse is in the middle
0:09:15 > 0:09:18of a big review of anabolic steroids and due to report
0:09:18 > 0:09:25its findings next year.
0:09:25 > 0:09:30A new plan to deal with plastic waste has been announced by Michael
0:09:30 > 0:09:34Gove. He says he has been spurred to action by David Attenborough's
0:09:34 > 0:09:42planet Earth Two series.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44Historic England has published a list of the most unusual
0:09:44 > 0:09:46structures and sites given protected-listed status in 2017.
0:09:46 > 0:09:49The organisation says the places gaining the status
0:09:49 > 0:09:49are increasingly quirky.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52Our correspondent Jon Donnison has been looking at the latest
0:09:52 > 0:09:54additions.
0:09:54 > 0:10:00From Whipsnade tree Cathedral in Dunstable to a working men's club in
0:10:00 > 0:10:08Eastbourne, from the old milestone markers on the before 407 three in
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Gloucestershire to the warhorse on Merseyside. It is an eclectic list
0:10:11 > 0:10:16of the listed, historic England selection of the most intriguing
0:10:16 > 0:10:20sites registered in 2017.We just put up 20 that demonstrate the
0:10:20 > 0:10:25enormous range. I mean, we're not really talking about big places any
0:10:25 > 0:10:30more, because most of those, most of those on the list already. It has
0:10:30 > 0:10:34been going for 70 years. We are talking about individual places
0:10:34 > 0:10:39which perhaps were not very well-known, which we think deserve
0:10:39 > 0:10:44protection.And this includes this Victorian guest tower off the old
0:10:44 > 0:10:48can road in London. On a drab December day it may not be much to
0:10:48 > 0:10:55look at, but when it was completed in 1881, gas holder number 13, as it
0:10:55 > 0:10:59is known, was the biggest ever built, and its design went on to be
0:10:59 > 0:11:03replicated around the world. It is an imposing structure, and like all
0:11:03 > 0:11:09those listed in 2017, not one that will be going anywhere any time
0:11:09 > 0:11:13soon.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16It was a night of surprises at the Sports Personality
0:11:16 > 0:11:19of the Year ceremony in Liverpool last night.
0:11:19 > 0:11:32Did you watch?Yes.And?It was all right.Were there any surprises?If
0:11:32 > 0:11:36you work in TV, you don't laugh at that sort of thing, because you know
0:11:36 > 0:11:37it can happen to anybody.
0:11:37 > 0:11:41Sally was there for us.
0:11:41 > 0:11:45A few technical problems, but the most important thing to tell you...
0:11:45 > 0:11:49The four-time Olympic champion Sir Mo Farah has won this year's BBC
0:11:49 > 0:11:50Sports Personality of the Year.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52Motorcyclist Jonathan Rea was second, and Paralympic sprinter
0:11:52 > 0:11:53Jonnie Peacock was third.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55The pre-award favourite, heavyweight world champ
0:11:55 > 0:12:00Anthony Joshua, finished in fourth place.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02But the result wasn't the only unexpected event.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05When Sir Mo's shock victory was announced, the link
0:12:05 > 0:12:07to his location in London went down.
0:12:07 > 0:12:22Eventually the line was established, this is what he had to say.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25As an athlete, what I have achieved has been incredible over the
0:12:25 > 0:12:26years.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28And, for all the youngsters out there, you can work hard
0:12:28 > 0:12:30and achieve your dreams.
0:12:30 > 0:12:31Anything is possible in life.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34If you believe at it, work at it, keep grafting, grafting,
0:12:34 > 0:12:36anything is possible.
0:12:36 > 0:12:40What an amazing night it is, and I wish I was there,
0:12:40 > 0:12:42but unfortunately I'm sorry I can't be there,
0:12:42 > 0:12:44guys.
0:12:44 > 0:12:50I'm here with my family, and my kids are here as well.
0:12:50 > 0:12:55But it's all exciting for us, and I just can't believe I won!
0:12:55 > 0:13:00Just shocked, wasn't he? And in the auditorium there was a huge gasp. I
0:13:00 > 0:13:06don't know if you could hear it on the television. England's rip on the
0:13:06 > 0:13:11Ashes is slipping away. Rain in Perth held up the Aussies, but they
0:13:11 > 0:13:19have taken the wickets of Jonny Bairstow and Moeen Ali and need four
0:13:19 > 0:13:30more to claim the own. -- urn.
0:13:30 > 0:13:3316-year-old Harry Cochrane scored for Hearts as they thrash Celtic 4-0
0:13:33 > 0:13:35to end their 69-game unbeaten domestic run.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Manchester United have closed the gap on Premier League leaders
0:13:38 > 0:13:42Manchester City to 11 points, thanks to a 2-1 win at West Brom.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45Romelu Lukaku's second goal in two games helped them on their way.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47A late penalty condemned European Champions Cup holders
0:13:47 > 0:13:49Saracens to a 24-21 Pool defeat by Clemont Auvergne.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52Sarries look like having to try to qualify for the quarter-finals
0:13:52 > 0:13:55as one of the three best Pool runners-up.
0:13:55 > 0:14:03Much more on Mo Farah and Sports Personality of the Year in the
0:14:03 > 0:14:09papers. The shock of the win and the technical problems, which hampered
0:14:09 > 0:14:12the end of the programme. It had been such a slick programme, and
0:14:12 > 0:14:18then at the end...And they had to finish quick because of the
0:14:18 > 0:14:23Apprentice final. We might have the end of the Ashes by the time we
0:14:23 > 0:14:27finished this morning.I am going to hope against hope that that is not
0:14:27 > 0:14:38true.As we saw last night, anything can happen.And he has more power in
0:14:38 > 0:14:44his little finger than you could ever imagine.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50It is cold
0:14:50 > 0:14:56It is cold outside. Temperatures around the freezing mark. Frost.
0:14:56 > 0:15:01Temperatures in rural spots down to -4. A chilly start the Monday
0:15:01 > 0:15:05morning. The most mild in the south-west of the UK and the far
0:15:05 > 0:15:10north with thick cloud. Temperatures in double figures. Clear skies
0:15:10 > 0:15:17elsewhere. Mist and fog falling in a few areas. Glasgow is the most prone
0:15:17 > 0:15:22spot. Nothing much. A lovely start to Monday. More cloud in Orkney and
0:15:22 > 0:15:30Shetland. Drizzled in the Hebrides. Cloud in Northern Ireland in
0:15:30 > 0:15:34north-west England. For most, a fine start to the working week. Dry and
0:15:34 > 0:15:41sunny. Temperatures in single figures for many. A bit more breeze
0:15:41 > 0:15:47in Scotland. Light wind elsewhere. Frost forms under the white colour.
0:15:47 > 0:15:55Dense fog. We will start to see some in the hills in the north and west
0:15:55 > 0:15:59later. Temperatures will be kept up in northern Scotland and Northern
0:15:59 > 0:16:04Ireland. A frosty start south and east. If you are on the move, do not
0:16:04 > 0:16:11travel tomorrow in the Midlands and south-east England and East Anglia.
0:16:11 > 0:16:16Dense fog for Tuesday morning rush-hour. If you go to the airport,
0:16:16 > 0:16:22that could cause issues. Some fog will linger through the day. The
0:16:22 > 0:16:24north-west of the UK, Scotland, north-west England, Northern
0:16:24 > 0:16:30Ireland, a great start. Cloud. Fog in the hills. Patchy rain in western
0:16:30 > 0:16:34Scotland tomorrow. Perhaps in western Wales and the far south-west
0:16:34 > 0:16:45of England. A dry day on Tuesday. Fog lingers, four degrees. The best
0:16:45 > 0:16:48of the sunshine, north-east Scotland. A big range in
0:16:48 > 0:16:51temperatures tomorrow. You will be somewhere in between, depending on

0:17:17 > 0:17:20UK wide with most places in single figures and double-digit
0:17:20 > 0:17:27temperatures. The week ahead, plenty of cloud. Not a huge amount of rain,
0:17:27 > 0:17:34admitted three. Light winds and cloud breaks by night. --
0:17:34 > 0:17:40admittedly. Not great for the pre-Christmas travel plans.Thank
0:17:40 > 0:17:41you.
0:17:41 > 0:17:44pre-Christmas travel plans.Thank you. I pay a lot of attention to the
0:17:44 > 0:17:49forecast.That range of temperatures, four degrees nearer
0:17:49 > 0:17:54Norwich and four
0:17:54 > 0:17:57temperatures, four degrees nearer Norwich and four, sorry, 14, in
0:17:57 > 0:18:06Scotland? Is that an anomaly?Fog can do it. North-east Scotland, a
0:18:06 > 0:18:12south-west wind, and something more cold, but something that warms over
0:18:12 > 0:18:18mountains. That is why it is possible to get 14.What isn't it?
0:18:18 > 0:18:43It is cold the Fern Effect.It is fog if you can see further than a
0:18:43 > 0:18:46kilometre, and mist otherwise.That is interesting.Mo Farah on the
0:18:46 > 0:18:53Times. Sally was talking about the look on his face when he found out.
0:18:53 > 0:19:02It was 50-1 to win. Tories urged Theresa May Tuesday until 2021.
0:19:02 > 0:19:17Facebook admits social media is bad for your health.Daily Telegraph. A
0:19:17 > 0:19:20picture of Rebekkah, the British Embassy worker found strangled to
0:19:20 > 0:19:23death in Beirut. The suspicion is she was kidnapped, abducted, before
0:19:23 > 0:19:28being murdered. The lead story is Saudi Arabia has no excuses for
0:19:28 > 0:19:34blocking food shipments to Yemen. It could be in breach of international
0:19:34 > 0:19:38humanitarian law if it continues. That is what the International

0:19:49 > 0:20:02you OK?You would understand if you watched. Debbie and McFadden, the

0:20:07 > 0:20:16murdered.She is also on the front page of the Daily Mail. The story is
0:20:16 > 0:20:22the middle-class pension crisis. It is official. 6 million are not
0:20:22 > 0:20:29seeking enough for retirement.And 70 miles per hour storm chaos on the

0:20:46 > 0:20:50correct, but you are on international television!I like to
0:20:50 > 0:20:57stick my neck out. And this is an interesting piece about Mo Farah.
0:20:57 > 0:21:02This piece says it is a shame they had technical problems. It is not as
0:21:02 > 0:21:09bad as the Oscars. Do you remember when that happened? Yeah. Yeah. He
0:21:09 > 0:21:15is saying it was not ideal, but fantastic news for Mo Farah. And a
0:21:15 > 0:21:22little piece about Bradley Lowery, he was honoured last night. I don't
0:21:22 > 0:21:26know if you saw. The moment with his parents. He bravely went up on
0:21:26 > 0:21:31stage. His mother made the most wonderful speech. You know, I was
0:21:31 > 0:21:38privileged enough to be there at the time. You could hear a pin drop.You
0:21:38 > 0:21:43were saying earlier it was a shock when the whole thing went down with
0:21:43 > 0:21:47Mo Farah. Apparently a backup generator failed.This is what
0:21:47 > 0:21:52happens to us. We were talking to the winner at the end of the
0:21:52 > 0:22:00programme as they come to talk to us on Breakfast. Ten minutes before the
0:22:00 > 0:22:03end of Sports Personality they went from one generator to another. They
0:22:03 > 0:22:10already knew there was a problem. So they went to the backup.Not much
0:22:10 > 0:22:19happened.Another thing to show you. The Daily Mail. Have a look. The
0:22:19 > 0:22:27team from Bake Off had their Christmas lunch. Prue Leath was the
0:22:27 > 0:22:31one to cook. A bit of pressure. If you look carefully, there is some of
0:22:31 > 0:22:39that red cabbage stuff.Stuff!You put raisins in it. And I am not sure
0:22:39 > 0:22:47if that is Turkey. It could be duck. It could be a goose. The question is
0:22:47 > 0:22:58who made the mince pies?Yeah. And all of us are getting ready for
0:22:58 > 0:23:09Christmas. Let yeah... Yeah? I have not made any mince pies. Mr
0:23:09 > 0:23:18Hollywood surely made the pies...We will have to look it up.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21More details have emerged about the six people killed
0:23:21 > 0:23:23in the car crash in Birmingham.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26Father of six and taxi driver, Imtiaz Mohammed, was on his last job
0:23:26 > 0:23:30of the night and had told his wife he was almost on his way home.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33West Midlands Police are still trying to piece together
0:23:33 > 0:23:34how it happened.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36Our reporter, Emma Thomas, is at the scene now.
0:23:36 > 0:23:42Good morning. So, where is the investigation at currently?Good
0:23:42 > 0:23:47morning. It was around 1am when emergency services were called to
0:23:47 > 0:23:53this dual carriageway close to the bars and restaurants were so many
0:23:53 > 0:23:57people would have been celebrating Christmas parties. As paramedics and
0:23:57 > 0:24:01police arrived at the scene they realised the devastation. There were
0:24:01 > 0:24:0713 patients to treat. Six vehicles involved in the collision. The force
0:24:07 > 0:24:14left a taxi cab lying on its side. People were woken up by the sound of
0:24:14 > 0:24:20two loud bangs. Despite the specially trained paramedics, five
0:24:20 > 0:24:26were tragically announced dead and a sixth died in hospital and a seventh
0:24:26 > 0:24:30remains in critical condition, we are told. West Midlands Police told
0:24:30 > 0:24:33us the investigation into the cause of the crash could take a
0:24:33 > 0:24:38significant amount of time to establish. As you can see, the road
0:24:38 > 0:24:45has reopened today after being closed for investigation. On the
0:24:45 > 0:25:00railings behind me, flowers adorned the line the road.What do we know
0:25:00 > 0:25:06about the people involved?Only Imtiaz Mohammed has been named.
0:25:06 > 0:25:10Three were in the taxi, three in another car that collided with the
0:25:10 > 0:25:18taxi. We know that Imtiaz Mohammed has children. His youngest daughter
0:25:18 > 0:25:22is having her fourth birthday today. It should have been a family
0:25:22 > 0:25:27celebration, but it will now be marked by a family in mourning with
0:25:27 > 0:25:31the loss of their father. We have been told locally by his brother
0:25:31 > 0:25:35that he had made a phone call to his wife moments before the collision
0:25:35 > 0:25:39saying he was due to collect his last passengers of the evening,
0:25:39 > 0:25:42deliver them, and then be on his way home, a journey he sadly never
0:25:42 > 0:25:49completed.For the moment, thank you very much. More on that a little
0:25:49 > 0:25:53later this morning for you. And now for the next story.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56It's the busiest week of the year for food retailers
0:25:56 > 0:25:59and manufacturers, so Steph is at a factory in Liverpool to see
0:25:59 > 0:26:01if it's cracking under the strain.
0:26:01 > 0:26:05She is wearing one of the greatest outfits of the year so far.Ever!
0:26:05 > 0:26:11You look fantastic.Good morning, everyone! I love this. Let me
0:26:11 > 0:26:19explain where I am. I am at the Cream Cracker Factory. You can see
0:26:19 > 0:26:25the team. This is Jacob. They have 500 people working here. At this
0:26:25 > 0:26:33time of year, they take on an extra 500 staff in order to be able to get
0:26:33 > 0:26:36all of the crackers out for Christmas. It is a big operation.
0:26:36 > 0:26:40They produce half a million crackers. They need someone going up
0:26:40 > 0:26:44and down because this place is so big they have so many crackers on
0:26:44 > 0:26:50the go. We are talking about food and how much we spend at this time
0:26:50 > 0:26:54of year on festive food. It is something like £4 billion expected
0:26:54 > 0:27:01to be spent on the festivities just on food. So, that is an increase of
0:27:01 > 0:27:073.6% compared to last year. So, we are still spending more money on
0:27:07 > 0:27:11food. We are not put off by the fact that prices have been going up.
0:27:11 > 0:27:19Prices of food have gone up 4.4%. We will find out at this place what it
0:27:19 > 0:30:45is like for them at this time of year. Getting the crackers out of.
0:30:45 > 0:30:48That is all for now. You can check out the website at the usual
0:30:48 > 0:30:53address. And now it is back to the Breakfast sofa.
0:30:54 > 0:30:56Hello, this is Breakfast, with Dan Walker and Naga Munchetty.
0:30:56 > 0:30:58It is 6:30am.
0:30:58 > 0:31:05We will bring you all the latest news and sport in a moment.
0:31:05 > 0:31:09But also on Breakfast this morning: We will be looking at why a growing
0:31:09 > 0:31:12number of young men are turning to steroids to help them achieve
0:31:12 > 0:31:14the perfect body, and the devastating health consequences
0:31:14 > 0:31:15they can have.
0:31:15 > 0:31:17England's World Cup-winning cricketers Anya Shrubsole
0:31:17 > 0:31:20and Danni Wyatt will be here, after adding the BBC
0:31:20 > 0:31:22Sport's Personality Team of the Year award to their growing
0:31:22 > 0:31:26list of honours.
0:31:26 > 0:31:28We will also be joined by Dr Who's newest companion,
0:31:28 > 0:31:30Bradley Walsh, and Spandau Ballet's Martin Kemp,
0:31:30 > 0:31:45who are about to star together in the world's biggest ever panto.
0:31:45 > 0:31:49Here is a summary of this morning's main stories from BBC News.
0:31:49 > 0:31:51Detectives in Lebanon are examining the possibility that a British
0:31:51 > 0:31:55embassy worker whose body was found by the side of a motorway had
0:31:55 > 0:31:56been sexually assaulted.
0:31:56 > 0:31:58It is understood Rebecca Dykes, who worked for the Department
0:31:58 > 0:32:01for International Development, was abducted after leaving a bar
0:32:01 > 0:32:02on the outskirts of the city.
0:32:02 > 0:32:05Her family say they are devastated by her loss.
0:32:05 > 0:32:08Theresa May is due to meet her Brexit Cabinet today to discuss,
0:32:08 > 0:32:11for the first time, what the UK's future relationship
0:32:11 > 0:32:12with the EU should be.
0:32:12 > 0:32:14The Prime Minister will later address the Commons,
0:32:14 > 0:32:18telling MPs the UK wants to sign trade deals during what she calls
0:32:18 > 0:32:18an implementation period.
0:32:18 > 0:32:21Meanwhile, the EU's chief Brexit negotiator, Michel Barnier,
0:32:21 > 0:32:24has said there was no way the UK will secure a bespoke deal
0:32:24 > 0:32:27with the EU, saying there won't be any cherry-picking
0:32:27 > 0:32:39to accommodate their wishes.
0:32:39 > 0:32:42The first of six victims killed in a multiple pile-up in Birmingham
0:32:42 > 0:32:44has been named as taxi driver Imtiaz Mohammed.
0:32:44 > 0:32:47The father-of-six had just told his wife he was on his last
0:32:47 > 0:32:49job, and was on his way home.
0:32:49 > 0:32:53Police are investigating how the crash happened.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56There has been major disruption at the world's busiest airport,
0:32:56 > 0:33:00in Atlanta in the United States, as a result of a power cut.
0:33:00 > 0:33:01Some passengers were left in darkened terminals
0:33:01 > 0:33:02at Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson airport.
0:33:02 > 0:33:04More than 1,000 flights have been cancelled,
0:33:04 > 0:33:06and many are being diverted elsewhere.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09The airport typically handles more than 250,000 passengers and almost
0:33:09 > 0:33:162,500 flights every day.
0:33:16 > 0:33:19Tens of thousands of people may be putting themselves at increased risk
0:33:19 > 0:33:21of dying early from heart attacks and strokes
0:33:21 > 0:33:23because they are misusing anabolic steroids.
0:33:23 > 0:33:26The British Cardiovascular Society has issued the stark warning
0:33:26 > 0:33:29amid concern steroids are now being used by more people than ever
0:33:29 > 0:33:31before, especially by young men, who feel under pressure
0:33:31 > 0:33:40to have the perfect body.
0:33:40 > 0:33:48Prince Harry has interviewed Barack Obama for his guest edit of a BBC
0:33:48 > 0:33:50programme, with interesting techniques.Do I have to speak
0:33:50 > 0:33:59faster?No, not at all.Will I need a British accent?But if you start
0:33:59 > 0:34:09doing long pauses between answers, you will probably get this phase. --
0:34:09 > 0:34:22face.
0:34:22 > 0:34:34Loads of stuff backstage in a moment. But first, the Ashes. We are
0:34:34 > 0:34:38into the final day of the third test in Perth and the Australians need
0:34:38 > 0:34:46just four more wickets to complete a humiliating defeat in Perth. And it
0:34:46 > 0:34:51looked like the weather might have saved things, but what happened?As
0:34:51 > 0:34:55you say, it was a dramatic and slightly unusual start to the day.
0:34:55 > 0:34:59We had torrential rain overnight in Perth and some of that rain had
0:34:59 > 0:35:03leaked through the covers on the pitch and had left some damp patches
0:35:03 > 0:35:08on the pitch, which meant it was unplayable at the start of play. We
0:35:08 > 0:35:11had the slightly surreal sight of ground staff with leaf blower is
0:35:11 > 0:35:16trying to dry the damp patches on the pitch. It took them three hours
0:35:16 > 0:35:22but eventually they did it. And when play started, England did not play
0:35:22 > 0:35:25particularly well, unfortunately, Jonny Bairstow out to his first ball
0:35:25 > 0:35:31of the day, a ball which seemed to keep suspiciously low. It has been
0:35:31 > 0:35:36doing all sorts of strange things, bouncing off cracks in the pitch at
0:35:36 > 0:35:40right angles. It has not been easy for batting. They have also lost the
0:35:40 > 0:35:48second wicket in the last 45 minutes or so, Moeen Ali lbw for 11. So
0:35:48 > 0:35:52England are going to have to do something very special if they are
0:35:52 > 0:35:56to save this match and keep the Ashes hopes alive.I was going to
0:35:56 > 0:36:00ask that very question. Is there any hope they can save it now?Well,
0:36:00 > 0:36:09they're big hope is Dawid Malan, who got a big century in the first
0:36:09 > 0:36:14innings. Hopes rest with him. Not much left in the batting. England's
0:36:14 > 0:36:18lower order tends to get blown away, which doesn't give you much cause
0:36:18 > 0:36:22for optimism. There are perhaps a few showers lurking around which
0:36:22 > 0:36:26could cause a little bit of disruption, but frankly Australia
0:36:26 > 0:36:30are now in prime position to reclaim the Ashes by the end of the day.
0:36:30 > 0:36:33Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers says their 69-game unbeaten domestic
0:36:33 > 0:36:36run may never be surpassed by another team, after his side
0:36:36 > 0:36:37were thrashed 4-0 at Hearts.
0:36:37 > 0:36:4016-year-old Harry Cochrane opened the scoring with his first senior
0:36:40 > 0:36:41goal for Hearts.
0:36:41 > 0:36:43Then Kyle Lafferty beat Celtic goalkeeper Craig Gordon,
0:36:43 > 0:36:45to make it 2-0 before half time.
0:36:45 > 0:36:49Two second-half goals completed the stunning victory.
0:36:49 > 0:36:51Manchester United have closed the gap to Premier League leaders
0:36:51 > 0:36:55Manchester City to 11 points, thanks to the 2-1 win at West Brom.
0:36:55 > 0:36:58Romelu Lukaku scored his 15th Manchester United goal to put
0:36:58 > 0:36:59the visitors in front.
0:36:59 > 0:37:01It is now back-to-back strikes for the Belgian,
0:37:01 > 0:37:03who had recently had a barren spell.
0:37:03 > 0:37:06Jose Mourinho says he and his players aren't giving up hope
0:37:06 > 0:37:07of catching City.
0:37:07 > 0:37:09Liverpool moved into the top four by beating Bournemouth 4-0.
0:37:09 > 0:37:12The pick of the goals was the opener from Philippe Coutinho.
0:37:12 > 0:37:15The victory extended Liverpool's unbeaten run in all competitions
0:37:15 > 0:37:17to 12 matches.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19Britain's most successful ever track athlete, Sir Mo Farah,
0:37:19 > 0:37:22has been named BBC Sports Personality of the Year.
0:37:22 > 0:37:24World superbike champion Jonathan Rea was second,
0:37:24 > 0:37:25and double Paralympic 100m gold-medallist
0:37:25 > 0:37:26Jonnie Peacock was third.
0:37:26 > 0:37:29Heavyweight world champion Anthony Joshua was just 18 votes out
0:37:29 > 0:37:30of making the top three.
0:37:30 > 0:37:34But it is safe to say Sir Mo's interview didn't quite go according
0:37:34 > 0:37:55to plan on the night.
0:37:55 > 0:38:16The 2017 BBC Sports Personality of the Year is Mo Farah.
0:38:16 > 0:38:19Mo, I hope you can hear us, Rihanna's there with the trophy
0:38:19 > 0:38:29that she can present.
0:38:29 > 0:38:32I think...
0:38:32 > 0:38:44I think that just about sums up Mo's evening, doesn't it really?
0:38:44 > 0:38:48Well done to her for holding it together. It went really wrong and
0:38:48 > 0:39:05one of the generators failed, but we did eventually hear from Mo Farah.
0:39:05 > 0:39:08To win this, I didn't honestly come out tonight thinking,
0:39:08 > 0:39:11yeah, maybe top three, see how it goes, because we've got
0:39:11 > 0:39:12amazing superstars in sports.
0:39:12 > 0:39:14We've got Anthony Joshua, Lewis, Johnnie Peacock,
0:39:14 > 0:39:17we've got all of the boys.
0:39:17 > 0:39:17It's been amazing.
0:39:17 > 0:39:20When you look at it, comparing yourself with other
0:39:20 > 0:39:23athletes, you think I could finish in the top three.
0:39:23 > 0:39:28I didn't imagine I was ever going to win this.
0:39:28 > 0:39:31Come so close in 2012, and, you know - but I guess
0:39:31 > 0:39:32anything can happen.
0:39:32 > 0:39:34You just have to dig deep and keep working.
0:39:34 > 0:39:37I just want to thank everybody who has supported me.
0:39:37 > 0:39:40It has been an incredible journey, and it's very exciting.
0:39:40 > 0:39:46I know in the past when he has been nominated and not one, he has been
0:39:46 > 0:39:50devastated. There have been times when he did enough to win it, but it
0:39:50 > 0:39:59didn't happen.
0:39:59 > 0:40:02Let's have a look at how the public voted on the night.
0:40:02 > 0:40:05You can see that Sir Mo, who wasn't the favourite to win,
0:40:05 > 0:40:08clearly comes out on top, with more than 83,000 votes.
0:40:08 > 0:40:10Jonathan Rea was second, with more than 80,000 votes.
0:40:10 > 0:40:12Jonnie Peacock was third, with 73,429.
0:40:12 > 0:40:15But Anthony Joshua missed out on being in the top three
0:40:15 > 0:40:16by just 18 votes.
0:40:16 > 0:40:22When Andy Murray one, how many did he get?250,000.So it was quite
0:40:22 > 0:40:28low, quite spread out.Also Andy Murray was streets ahead of anyone
0:40:28 > 0:40:32else, these are lower and there is not much to separate them, not much
0:40:32 > 0:40:37at all.
0:40:37 > 0:40:40The headlines from the night may have included a surprise winner
0:40:40 > 0:40:42and technical difficulties, but there was much more
0:40:42 > 0:40:45to Sports Personality of the Year 2017, as I found out.
0:40:45 > 0:40:47This report contains some flash photography.
0:40:47 > 0:40:50It is the most glamorous night of the sporting year, when the trophy
0:40:50 > 0:40:54winners, the award winners, all swap the training track for the red
0:40:54 > 0:41:04carpet. And this.As a sportsman, you want to win everything. You are
0:41:04 > 0:41:08angry when you lose, but when you go home and you have your daughter
0:41:08 > 0:41:12smiling and giggling away, it is hard to stay mad.What are you most
0:41:12 > 0:41:16looking forward to tonight?Will be just having a little bit of
0:41:16 > 0:41:22champagne for once. I don't really get to drink.I want to share
0:41:22 > 0:41:26something with you now that has never happened before. We are
0:41:26 > 0:41:29allowed inside the make-up room with the presenters as they get ready for
0:41:29 > 0:41:34sports personality. Claire, who is the brave soul who has agreed to do
0:41:34 > 0:41:39this, thank you so much. How are you feeling?I feel OK. It is a really
0:41:39 > 0:41:43weird thing with Sports Personality of the Year, because I always think
0:41:43 > 0:41:48I am fine and then my tummy goes really odd, and all last night I was
0:41:48 > 0:41:50gurgling and all through the rehearsals today. I think I don't
0:41:50 > 0:41:55get nervous, but maybe I do.Usually when I play at awards ceremonies
0:41:55 > 0:42:00that means I have won something, so I am intrigued as to what I am going
0:42:00 > 0:42:06to get tonight.The world watched the Manchester derby last week. We
0:42:06 > 0:42:09hear there was a little bit of a scuffle afterwards, and they may
0:42:09 > 0:42:18have been some Oasis songs being played.To read that the thing which
0:42:18 > 0:42:22annoyed Mourinho so much was the player celebrating while playing
0:42:22 > 0:42:29Don't look back in Anger, it kind of made my life.The atmosphere of
0:42:29 > 0:42:34excitement is building inside the arena. It is one minute until we are
0:42:34 > 0:42:44live on television. Time for me to sit back, relax and enjoy the show.
0:42:44 > 0:42:51In third place is Jonnie Peacock. When he said that name, it was
0:42:51 > 0:42:57unreal. And I am a massive Liverpool fan, my mum is going to be ecstatic
0:42:57 > 0:43:02just that it is him.I want you to do something for me, down at camera
0:43:02 > 0:43:07there and give your mum away.I don't think my mum is going to be
0:43:07 > 0:43:13up. If she is up, big wave. I got a text from my sister just said mum is
0:43:13 > 0:43:19in tears.When Jonnie Peacock was called out in third I thought oh
0:43:19 > 0:43:26well, at least I will get a drink out of the night, and to be second
0:43:26 > 0:43:31was... I didn't know if I should get up, and then my wife said it is me,
0:43:31 > 0:43:36so yes, extremely proud.So congratulations.Thank you.You were
0:43:36 > 0:43:42so composed on the stage.I was so nervous. Just all the emotions came
0:43:42 > 0:43:47flooding back.You actually can't say too late tonight, can you,
0:43:47 > 0:43:52because...I have my little baby in a hotel with my mum, so I have to go
0:43:52 > 0:43:56and make sure she is OK.What next, though?Of is that I want to stay
0:43:56 > 0:44:00involved in sport, I want people to be active, and do different things,
0:44:00 > 0:44:10so it is exciting.Watch this space. Yes.
0:44:10 > 0:44:15No wonder my hair looks a bit crazy today.She gave an amazing speech,
0:44:15 > 0:44:21Jess.I hope at home everyone got a sense of what a lovely moment that
0:44:21 > 0:44:26was for her. She had that really long walk, didn't she, to the stage.
0:44:26 > 0:44:32It just seems like a really lovely atmosphere, that evening.Had a bit
0:44:32 > 0:44:37of everything last night, drama, unpredictability, surprises.A few
0:44:37 > 0:44:43tears.Several tears.I met lots of lovely people last night, who were
0:44:43 > 0:44:53all saying great things about the award and the sporting year.
0:44:58 > 0:45:08Confirming the fact of the morning. The difference between fog and mist.
0:45:08 > 0:45:15Apparently, the difference between fog and mist is that fog is when you
0:45:15 > 0:45:24nautically cannot see beyond one kilometre.Spot on. Gold star.
0:45:24 > 0:45:30Anything below 1000 metres as far as visibility is concerned, it puts us
0:45:30 > 0:45:35in the fog. And it will be a player in the forecast for the next 48
0:45:35 > 0:45:44hours. Otherwise, it is the other word, F, frost. We could see frost
0:45:44 > 0:45:51form on the grass.The warmest of the moment if you can call it that
0:45:51 > 0:45:57is north-west England and Scotland. The cloud in northern Scotland will
0:45:57 > 0:46:03produce cloud and rain and drizzle. The morning commute will be frosty.
0:46:03 > 0:46:11Mist and fog in Manchester. Not a widespread problem. The fog should
0:46:11 > 0:46:16lift and shift. Then, sunny spells to take us through the day. The
0:46:16 > 0:46:21greatest of all in fun of Scotland. Patchy rain and drizzle. The same in
0:46:21 > 0:46:28Scotland and Northern Ireland. -- far north Scotland. Ten in the far
0:46:28 > 0:46:35north-west of the country. Tonight, frost forming. The white colours is
0:46:35 > 0:46:42fog on the map. Fog in the hills in the north-west of the UK as well.
0:46:42 > 0:46:47That is because of the cloud producing rain and drizzle. Keeping
0:46:47 > 0:46:51temperatures up compared to the frosty and foggy start we will have
0:46:51 > 0:46:56tomorrow further south and east. Dense fog patches tomorrow in the
0:46:56 > 0:47:02Midlands, East Anglia, in southern England. It is an important week for
0:47:02 > 0:47:05pre-Christmas travel. Some airports affected in these areas. Fog will be
0:47:05 > 0:47:10slow to shift. A few could linger. If it does, it would be cold as
0:47:10 > 0:47:16well. A lot more cloud for parts of western Scotland and northern
0:47:16 > 0:47:21England and western Wales and Northern Ireland. Most will have a
0:47:21 > 0:47:26dry day. Bright breaks in the east of the high ground of Scotland and
0:47:26 > 0:47:32Northern Ireland. That brings temperatures tomorrow. 3-4 in rural
0:47:32 > 0:47:38areas. Sunshine in the north-east of the country. 14-15. Somewhere in
0:47:38 > 0:47:44between. Fog could be back again on Tuesday night in the south-east of
0:47:44 > 0:47:50the country thanks to high pressure. Light rain in Scotland and Northern
0:47:50 > 0:47:53Ireland. That will push into parts of northern England, north and west
0:47:53 > 0:48:00Wales as well. Light and patchy rain. The country is split into.
0:48:00 > 0:48:06Mild towards the south and east. Rather grey. Rain in the forecast,
0:48:06 > 0:48:12but not much. Light winds will cause a problem in England and Wales
0:48:12 > 0:48:13but not much. Light winds will cause a problem in England and Wales.
0:48:13 > 0:48:18Overnight, dense fog patches forming.You will not be able to see
0:48:18 > 0:48:23more than a kilometre?There you go.
0:48:23 > 0:48:25The latest series of David Attenborough's Blue Planet
0:48:25 > 0:48:26shocked the nation by showing the amount of plastic in our oceans
0:48:26 > 0:48:28shocked the nation by showing the amount of plastic in our oceans
0:48:28 > 0:48:30and the harm it is doing to marine life.
0:48:30 > 0:48:32We have talked about it a lot.
0:48:32 > 0:48:35Now, the Environment Secretary, Michael Gove, says it has
0:48:35 > 0:48:38inspired him to speed up plans to tackle plastic waste.
0:48:38 > 0:48:40Let's discuss them with Chris Tuckett from the Marine Conservation
0:48:40 > 0:48:43Society.
0:48:43 > 0:48:52Good boarding. Thank you for joining us from Bristol. -- morning. What do
0:48:52 > 0:48:57you make of the plant? Many people will be learning the details this
0:48:57 > 0:49:01morning as they turn on the television. What about what Michael
0:49:01 > 0:49:08Gove is putting forward?We welcome the plan. A whole group of
0:49:08 > 0:49:11environmental and charities have written to Michael Gove and the
0:49:11 > 0:49:15government asking them to take action following Blue Planet II.
0:49:15 > 0:49:20Many of us saw the programme and the issues around for the marine
0:49:20 > 0:49:23environment. We want the UK government to take action. We are
0:49:23 > 0:49:28glad he has said something and something will happen, but we want
0:49:28 > 0:49:33action to become reality, we want to reduce plastic in the ocean.How bad
0:49:33 > 0:49:37is the situation? We can see pictures from Blue Planet II which
0:49:37 > 0:49:44many people saw and many have reacted to as well.It is bad. There
0:49:44 > 0:49:48is an awful lot of plastic out there. There estimates around,
0:49:48 > 0:49:55things like a truckload of plastic waste goes into the ocean every
0:49:55 > 0:50:01minute of every day. That is huge. For the UK, our recycling rates are
0:50:01 > 0:50:07not great. Things like plastic bottles in our households, we use
0:50:07 > 0:50:15around 13 billion plastic bottles every year, but only 5.5 billion get
0:50:15 > 0:50:19recycled and I made into bottles of whatever again. There is a big
0:50:19 > 0:50:24problem with what happens to waste and where it goes.Is it a big issue
0:50:24 > 0:50:29the amount of plastic we use, or the fact we don't recycle enough?It is
0:50:29 > 0:50:34both. We think there may be something in Michael Gove's plan
0:50:34 > 0:50:39about the types of plastic that are used. A really important thing is
0:50:39 > 0:50:44from the design stage. We have to make sure the right plastic is used
0:50:44 > 0:50:49so it can be recycled. Things like black plastic trays, they cannot be
0:50:49 > 0:50:52recycled because they cannot be picked up in the recycling process.
0:50:52 > 0:51:00Why I'll re- even reducing those in the first place? -- why are we. So,
0:51:00 > 0:51:05the production chain has to be addressed, but also recycling. How
0:51:05 > 0:51:09that happens, where it happened, making sure the recycling rate goes
0:51:09 > 0:51:13up, at the moment it is only around 44%, we want more to be recycled,
0:51:13 > 0:51:18and it has to be done well so the plastic is clean and can be reused.
0:51:18 > 0:51:23That makes no sense. Why do we use black plastic trays if they cannot
0:51:23 > 0:51:29be recycled? Is it aesthetic? Food looks better with a black
0:51:29 > 0:51:36background? It is pretty disappointing.Yass, it is on those
0:51:36 > 0:51:42exclusive products. Apparently it looks better, but do we need it when
0:51:42 > 0:51:46we think about the damage it can cause? Why do we need things like
0:51:46 > 0:51:51that?Is it able to be reversed? Many viewers are concerned about
0:51:51 > 0:51:57that plastic in the ocean. Is it something that if we all made a
0:51:57 > 0:52:04change we could actually get back to it better situation?I think there
0:52:04 > 0:52:09are many reasons to make a change. There is a lot of plastic out there
0:52:09 > 0:52:14in the ocean. It will be there for a very, very long time, breaking down
0:52:14 > 0:52:19very gradually. But we have got to stop this now. The amount that is
0:52:19 > 0:52:24happening every day, it keeps going and going, it is wasteful. We know
0:52:24 > 0:52:34it is. Things we only used once, straws, stirrers in coffee cups, do
0:52:34 > 0:52:38we need those? There are many alternatives. Either don't use them
0:52:38 > 0:52:43in the first place or recycle them, reduce the amount you need, that is
0:52:43 > 0:52:47the main message.Very good to talk to you. Thank you for that. My New
0:52:47 > 0:52:53Year's resolution is not to use plastic bottles. I will try my best.
0:52:53 > 0:52:59I agree, but it is hard. You are out and about and perhaps forget to take
0:52:59 > 0:53:04your bottle, forget to take it up if you are buying a cup of coffee. But
0:53:04 > 0:53:10as long as we try, that is the first thing.
0:53:10 > 0:53:14UK shoppers are predicted to spend over £4bn on groceries this week.
0:53:14 > 0:53:15Incredible.
0:53:15 > 0:53:18So it's the start of the busiest week of the year for food
0:53:18 > 0:53:19retailers and manufacturers.
0:53:19 > 0:53:22Steph is at a cracker factory in Liverpool to find out
0:53:22 > 0:53:23how they cope.
0:53:23 > 0:53:27Where else would we send her? How are you? You look remarkable, might
0:53:27 > 0:53:34I say?You know I love my safety gear.I know.I have been sent here
0:53:34 > 0:53:43because we are at the Cream Cracker Factory, a famous brand. It is
0:53:43 > 0:53:47mesmerising to watch it come out, ready to go along this very, very
0:53:47 > 0:53:52long production line. They make something like a quarter of a
0:53:52 > 0:53:56million crackers here every day. This is a busy time of year for
0:53:56 > 0:53:59them. I have managed to convince John to talk to me. Good morning.
0:53:59 > 0:54:05Good morning.Tell us about this line, it is big.Yes. It goes
0:54:05 > 0:54:12through a special process. We are producing four times of do per hour.
0:54:12 > 0:54:22Then they go through this machine which changes the texture. And then
0:54:22 > 0:54:34it takes. We makeover 8 million crackers today. -- bakes. -- We make
0:54:34 > 0:54:39over a million. We have more than 800 staff in the factory. We produce
0:54:39 > 0:54:45Christmas selections all year round. You have said you take on extra
0:54:45 > 0:54:51staff at this time. How much changes at this time of year?Normally I
0:54:51 > 0:54:58would have around 400 between January and June and then we ramp it
0:54:58 > 0:55:04up to 800 for the production for Christmas. It is important to meet
0:55:04 > 0:55:10consumer demands.You get your steps in as well because this is a long
0:55:10 > 0:55:18line.Yes. I have not counted it but I would break my watch with how many
0:55:18 > 0:55:32steps I take. 90 metres, and there is a bike the operator uses.That
0:55:32 > 0:55:38was Trevor on the bike. He has to go up and down. We will let you keep
0:55:38 > 0:55:48going. Thank you. What about the bigger picture? Tell us about your
0:55:48 > 0:55:53work at this time of year.We spend 52 weeks of the year thinking and
0:55:53 > 0:56:01planning and eating everything to get ready for Christmas and then we
0:56:01 > 0:56:05gear up the stores, bring in colleagues, and stay as late as
0:56:05 > 0:56:08possible on Christmas Eve so everyone can shop and have some at
0:56:08 > 0:56:12this time of year.What about the big picture? You are a retail
0:56:12 > 0:56:20expert. You are spending just as much if not more per year.It is an
0:56:20 > 0:56:27emotional by. You spend more Christmas. But food is ramping up in
0:56:27 > 0:56:30terms of sales this week. Prices are going up next year, which will be
0:56:30 > 0:56:44tough. Some people, 40% of consumers, they say let's make hay
0:56:44 > 0:56:50while the sun shines before a tough January.I feel a bit like a cracker
0:56:50 > 0:56:55myself this morning. You can see them going along. John told us they
0:56:55 > 0:56:59will go through the other and to be quality check and then they will be
0:56:59 > 0:57:06on to be put into packets. More from me later.Thank you very much. We
0:57:06 > 0:57:13will have to get a cracker challenge in at some point.Three in a minute,
0:57:13 > 1:00:39can you do that? No water.Maybe she could do it. It
1:00:39 > 1:00:40in double figures.
1:00:40 > 1:00:42But not much in the way of sunshine.
1:00:42 > 1:00:46Now it's back to Dan and Naga.
1:00:46 > 1:00:49Hello this is Breakfast, with Dan Walker and Naga Munchetty.
1:00:49 > 1:00:51Police in Beirut investigate whether a British embassy worker
1:00:51 > 1:00:54found strangled at the side of a road had been sexually assaulted.
1:00:54 > 1:00:57It is believed Rebecca Dykes was abducted after leaving a bar
1:00:57 > 1:01:04on the outskirts of the city.
1:01:04 > 1:01:25Her family say they are devastated by her death.
1:01:25 > 1:01:30Theresa May meets her Brexit Cabinet to discuss the UK's future

1:01:34 > 1:01:36after a devastating car crash in Birmingham.
1:01:36 > 1:01:39Huge drama on a night to remember at the 2017 Sports Personality
1:01:39 > 1:01:41of the Year awards in Liverpool.
1:01:41 > 1:01:43A shock win for Britain's most successful track athlete
1:01:43 > 1:01:46was hampered by a few technical problems, but Sir Mo was delighted
1:01:46 > 1:01:53at finally getting his hands on the award.
1:01:53 > 1:02:04I didn't imagine I was ever going to win this.
1:02:04 > 1:02:06Come so close in 2012, and, you know...
1:02:06 > 1:02:08But I guess anything can happen.
1:02:08 > 1:02:11And also in sport: The Australians are edging closer to
1:02:11 > 1:02:14regaining the Ashes.
1:02:14 > 1:02:20Morning rain did hold up their efforts,
1:02:20 > 1:02:23but three wickets have fallen.
1:02:23 > 1:02:31The Aussies need just three more for victory.
1:02:31 > 1:02:34Good morning from this cream cracker factory in Liverpool.
1:02:34 > 1:02:37UK shoppers are predicted to spend over £4 billion on groceries this
1:02:37 > 1:02:41week, so it is the start of the busiest week of the year
1:02:41 > 1:02:42for food retailers and manufacturers.
1:02:42 > 1:02:45I'm live at this cracker factory in Liverpool to find out
1:02:45 > 1:02:46how they cope.
1:02:46 > 1:02:47And Matt has the weather.
1:02:47 > 1:02:51A frosty start to the new working week, but tomorrow a different
1:02:51 > 1:02:54story. Fog could be an issue. I have more details coming up in 15
1:02:54 > 1:02:55minutes.
1:02:55 > 1:02:55Good morning.
1:02:55 > 1:02:57First, our main story: Detectives in Lebanon are examining
1:02:57 > 1:03:01the possibility that a British embassy worker whose body was found
1:03:01 > 1:03:03by the side of a motorway had been sexually assaulted.
1:03:03 > 1:03:06Rebecca Dykes was working in the capital city of Beirut
1:03:06 > 1:03:08for the Department for International Development.
1:03:08 > 1:03:11It is thought she had been abducted and strangled after leaving a party.
1:03:11 > 1:03:13Our Middle East correspondent Martin Patience joins
1:03:13 > 1:03:14us from Beirut.
1:03:14 > 1:03:18Thank you so much for coming on the programme. What more can you tell
1:03:18 > 1:03:24us, what more detailed and we have? Well, just in the last few minutes
1:03:24 > 1:03:27we have been hearing from a police source from the Lebanese police, and
1:03:27 > 1:03:34he says that a suspect was detained, arrested, in the early hours of this
1:03:34 > 1:03:39morning in relation to this killing. He gave no more details on this man,
1:03:39 > 1:03:43but it is believed he was a taxi driver, and that has been widely
1:03:43 > 1:03:47reported in the local Lebanese media. We understand that Rebecca
1:03:47 > 1:03:52was celebrating with a colleague on Friday night. It was a going away
1:03:52 > 1:03:57party. She then left the bar and it appears she got into some kind of
1:03:57 > 1:04:01taxi, and that is related to the killing. Her body was found on
1:04:01 > 1:04:07Saturday morning. It was dumped on a motorway a few miles from where I am
1:04:07 > 1:04:13standing, and the police say... Have told us that they believed she was
1:04:13 > 1:04:19strangled and sexually assaulted. We have been hearing there has been an
1:04:19 > 1:04:25outpouring of tributes to Rebecca. I had one person describe her as a
1:04:25 > 1:04:29bright star who worked on the humanitarian front line. The embassy
1:04:29 > 1:04:33not far from where I am standing is said to be in deep shock. While
1:04:33 > 1:04:38there is chaos elsewhere in the Middle East, Lebanon generally
1:04:38 > 1:04:43speaking is regarded as pretty safe. That is what makes this case all the
1:04:43 > 1:04:48more shocking.You mentioned the fact that there was shock from the
1:04:48 > 1:04:53embassy. I suppose right across the diplomatic and expat community, it
1:04:53 > 1:05:00is probably matched that, as well. It is, I spoke to another friend who
1:05:00 > 1:05:04described her as a lovely woman. Generally speaking, Lebanon is a
1:05:04 > 1:05:08safe country. We don't see these types of incidents, we haven't seen
1:05:08 > 1:05:13these types of incidents in the past, not for a long, long time. The
1:05:13 > 1:05:17police have ruled out that there was any political motive, so they are
1:05:17 > 1:05:20treating this as a terrible crime, but not one with political
1:05:20 > 1:05:24overtones. I think in the hours after it broke that was the
1:05:24 > 1:05:28suspicion but police have categorically ruled that out.
1:05:28 > 1:05:31Theresa May is due to meet her Brexit Cabinet today to discuss,
1:05:31 > 1:05:33for the first time, what the UK's future relationship
1:05:33 > 1:05:35with the EU should be.
1:05:35 > 1:05:37The Prime Minister will also address the Commons this afternoon
1:05:37 > 1:05:41to outline when she wants the UK to be able to sign trade deals
1:05:41 > 1:05:42with non-EU countries.
1:05:42 > 1:05:44Our political correspondent Ben Wright is in Westminster.
1:05:44 > 1:05:54Ben, another crucial step in Brexit talks.
1:05:54 > 1:06:00Well, good morning. 18 months on from the EU referendum, this week
1:06:00 > 1:06:04Cabinet ministers will have their first formal discussion, really,
1:06:04 > 1:06:09about the sort of trade relationship Britain wants to have with the EU
1:06:09 > 1:06:15after Brexit. So it is a big moment. We know that for two years after we
1:06:15 > 1:06:19left, so from March 2019, we will pretty much remain in the single
1:06:19 > 1:06:24market. Free movement of the UK will continue. The question is what
1:06:24 > 1:06:28happens after that. That is what the Cabinet will start to talk about.
1:06:28 > 1:06:32And because it is Brexit there are disagreements. Within the Cabinet
1:06:32 > 1:06:37you will have ministers like Amber Rudd, the Home Secretary, Damian
1:06:37 > 1:06:43Green, who voted remain during the campaign, will be wanting as close
1:06:43 > 1:06:48an alignment as possible with the EU, keeping that relationship as
1:06:48 > 1:06:52tight as it can possibly be. On the other hand you will have prominent
1:06:52 > 1:06:58leavers like Michael Gove and Boris Johnson who will want Britain to
1:06:58 > 1:07:02diverged much more and go its own way. Theresa May has to find its way
1:07:02 > 1:07:06through this and she will be speaking in the Commons later this
1:07:06 > 1:07:07afternoon.
1:07:07 > 1:07:10The first of six victims killed in a multiple pile-up in Birmingham
1:07:10 > 1:07:12has been named as taxi driver Imtiaz Mohammed.
1:07:12 > 1:07:15The father-of-six had told his wife he was on his last job
1:07:15 > 1:07:17and was on his way home.
1:07:17 > 1:07:19Police are investigating how the crash happened,
1:07:19 > 1:07:22as Jane Frances Kelly reports.
1:07:22 > 1:07:26Debris can be seen strewn across four lanes in these pictures
1:07:26 > 1:07:31taken in the immediate aftermath of the crash.
1:07:31 > 1:07:34One of those who died in what was described as a harrowing
1:07:34 > 1:07:36scene has been named as taxi driver Imtiaz Mohammed,
1:07:36 > 1:07:37who was a father-of-six.
1:07:37 > 1:07:42He had called his wife to say it was his last job of the night,
1:07:42 > 1:07:45and that he would be on his way home shortly.
1:07:45 > 1:07:50Two passengers in Mr Mohammed's taxi also died, but the man and the woman
1:07:50 > 1:07:53in the small car crushed between the taxi and the wall walked
1:07:53 > 1:07:55away with minor injuries.
1:07:55 > 1:07:57The crash happened on a section of the Belgrave Middle Way,
1:07:57 > 1:08:01a busy road in the heart of Birmingham.
1:08:01 > 1:08:05The vehicles collided at an entrance to an underpass at the junction
1:08:05 > 1:08:07of Bristol Road.
1:08:07 > 1:08:10The road had to be closed to allow the emergency services to safely
1:08:10 > 1:08:11examine the scene.
1:08:11 > 1:08:14It will take some time to unpick the scene,
1:08:14 > 1:08:17and just understand exactly what's happened, and it would be unfair
1:08:17 > 1:08:22of me to speculate at this time.
1:08:22 > 1:08:26What I can say is that we're looking into all sorts of conditions,
1:08:26 > 1:08:26the road conditions.
1:08:26 > 1:08:30We're aware the road was gritted at 5:00pm last night,
1:08:30 > 1:08:43but obviously that's just one factor of many that we need to consider.
1:08:43 > 1:08:45The police are appealing for witnesses, and any footage
1:08:45 > 1:08:48they may have, to try to piece together the cause
1:08:48 > 1:08:49of the multi-car crash.
1:08:49 > 1:08:52Our reporter Emma Thomas is at the scene for us this morning.
1:08:52 > 1:08:55What are the next steps in the police investigation?
1:08:55 > 1:08:58Well, the carriageway has been reopened for this morning's
1:08:58 > 1:09:03rush-hour after being closed for much of yesterday to allow West
1:09:03 > 1:09:09Midlands Police to gather evidence at the scene. Officers tell us it
1:09:09 > 1:09:12could be sometime before they establish the exact cause the
1:09:12 > 1:09:20collision, the impact of which left a black taxicab lying on its side.
1:09:20 > 1:09:25This is A40 mph stretch of dual carriageway, less than one mile from
1:09:25 > 1:09:28Birmingham City centre in a residential area, so the speed of
1:09:28 > 1:09:32the vehicles is something which will be a factor in the investigation.
1:09:32 > 1:09:36Also the weather. In the West Midlands last week we experienced
1:09:36 > 1:09:41subzero temperatures, snow and ice, but Birmingham City Council has
1:09:41 > 1:09:46already announced that this stretch of road was gritted just a few hours
1:09:46 > 1:09:49before the collision. West Midlands Police have asked anybody with
1:09:49 > 1:09:53footage of the scene not to show it on social media due to the
1:09:53 > 1:09:58sensitivity of the tragedy, but instead to share those images with
1:09:58 > 1:10:05West Midlands Police, in order to aid their investigation.
1:10:05 > 1:10:07The world's busiest airport, which is in Atlanta,
1:10:07 > 1:10:09says electricity has been restored after a power cut caused
1:10:09 > 1:10:10major flight delays.
1:10:10 > 1:10:12Some passengers were left in darkened terminals
1:10:12 > 1:10:13at Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson airport.
1:10:13 > 1:10:15More than 1,000 flights have been cancelled,
1:10:15 > 1:10:17and many are being diverted elsewhere.
1:10:17 > 1:10:19The airport typically handles more than 250,000 passengers and almost
1:10:19 > 1:10:292,500 flights every day.
1:10:29 > 1:10:34I never knew that that was the world's busiest airport.And if we
1:10:34 > 1:10:40ask that in a pub quiz, we will be able to pass ourselves off as fonts
1:10:40 > 1:10:47of knowledge. I was going to say something, and then it is gone.Was
1:10:47 > 1:10:53it about pop quizzes?No, it was about something else we are doing,
1:10:53 > 1:10:58but I did want to talk to you about Sports Personality as well. It will
1:10:58 > 1:11:03come back to me, I might holler at you if I think of it. Do that.Did
1:11:03 > 1:11:10you watch it?That moment at the end, awkward!
1:11:10 > 1:11:13The four-time Olympic champion Sir Mo Farah has won this year's BBC
1:11:13 > 1:11:15Sports Personality of the Year.
1:11:15 > 1:11:17Motorcyclist Jonathan Rea was second, and Paralympic sprinter
1:11:17 > 1:11:18Jonnie Peacock was third.
1:11:18 > 1:11:19The pre-award favourite, heavyweight world champ
1:11:19 > 1:11:21Anthony Joshua, finished in fourth place.
1:11:21 > 1:11:23But the result wasn't the only unexpected event.
1:11:23 > 1:11:26When Sir Mo's shock victory was announced, the link
1:11:26 > 1:11:27to his location in London went down.
1:11:27 > 1:11:29Eventually the line was established.
1:11:29 > 1:11:44This is what he had to say.
1:11:44 > 1:11:51As a athlete, what I have achieved has been incredible over the years.
1:11:51 > 1:11:54And, for all the youngsters out there, people out there,
1:11:54 > 1:11:57you can work hard and you can achieve your dreams.
1:11:57 > 1:11:58Anything is possible in life.
1:11:58 > 1:12:01If you believe at it, work at it, keep grafting,
1:12:01 > 1:12:02grafting, anything is possible.
1:12:02 > 1:12:05What an amazing night it is, and I wish I was there,
1:12:05 > 1:12:09but unfortunately I'm sorry I can't be there, guys.
1:12:09 > 1:12:12I'm here with my family, and my kids are here as well.
1:12:12 > 1:12:16But it's all exciting for us, and I just can't believe I won!
1:12:16 > 1:12:26Who do you think was more shocked? Mo, people at home? And Chris
1:12:26 > 1:12:33Broome, they didn't make the top three, the favourite. -- Chris
1:12:33 > 1:12:41Froome. That wasn't his house, by the way. A very posh location they
1:12:41 > 1:12:45use for the London live event. Probably a little bit disappointed
1:12:45 > 1:12:50for him not to be there on the night and celebrate afterwards.And we
1:12:50 > 1:12:58will get some reactions, because Anya Shrubsole will be here to tell
1:12:58 > 1:13:05us, I suppose, what it is like. You said the shock and the hall when it
1:13:05 > 1:13:13was announced -- in the hall.Is that what you are trying to remember
1:13:13 > 1:13:17to tell me?No, but if I haven't remembered it by now it is probably
1:13:17 > 1:13:22of no interest to anyone.
1:13:22 > 1:13:26The increasing pressure on teenage boys and men in their 20s to look
1:13:26 > 1:13:28perfect has led to more of them taking anabolic steroids,
1:13:28 > 1:13:31to achieve what they see as the ideal body type.
1:13:31 > 1:13:34Today, the British Cardiovascular Society is warning tens of thousands
1:13:34 > 1:13:37of people who take the drug are putting themselves at risk
1:13:37 > 1:13:42of dying early, as Radio One Newsbeat's Dan Whitworth reports.
1:13:42 > 1:13:46As well as heart attacks and strokes, people who take
1:13:46 > 1:13:48anabolic steroids also risk health problems like infertility
1:13:48 > 1:13:50and mood swings.
1:13:50 > 1:13:52But those risks aren't putting users off.
1:13:52 > 1:13:57Everything that we do in life now carries a risk of heart attack,
1:13:57 > 1:14:00cancer, whatever it is.
1:14:00 > 1:14:03So, whatever it is, I'm going to get those risks anyway,
1:14:03 > 1:14:06so I choose not to do certain things, and I choose this
1:14:06 > 1:14:07as my lifestyle instead.
1:14:07 > 1:14:10So, as I don't go out drinking and smoking,
1:14:10 > 1:14:11I take steroids.
1:14:11 > 1:14:14When it comes to the law, anabolic steroids are legal to use
1:14:14 > 1:14:16and legal to possess right across the UK.
1:14:16 > 1:14:19What is illegal, though, is supplying them unless you are
1:14:19 > 1:14:23a doctor, and if you are caught, you could face a prison sentence
1:14:23 > 1:14:27of up to 14 years.
1:14:27 > 1:14:32Anabolic steroids cause an imbalance of hormones which can damage many
1:14:32 > 1:14:33different organs, but in particular the heart.
1:14:33 > 1:14:37But that doesn't stop this man, who spoke on condition of anonymity,
1:14:37 > 1:14:38from dealing them.
1:14:38 > 1:14:45There's a very broad spectrum of people that use steroids.
1:14:45 > 1:14:47You're ranging from young guys at 18 year olds,
1:14:47 > 1:14:4919, 20, just starting out, and they're
1:14:49 > 1:14:52training and looking to bulk up for maybe a summer holiday,
1:14:52 > 1:14:54or just to look good for...
1:14:54 > 1:14:55For a summer holiday?
1:14:55 > 1:14:58For a summer holiday, or they just want to attract the girls.
1:14:58 > 1:15:02So these are the guys that you have to be more informative when you talk
1:15:02 > 1:15:05to them, make them more aware of the risks and dangers.
1:15:05 > 1:15:08The group which advises government on drug misuse is in the middle
1:15:08 > 1:15:11of a big review of anabolic steroids.
1:15:11 > 1:15:14And due to report its findings next year.
1:15:14 > 1:15:17Joining us now is Jim McVeigh, who is Public Health England's
1:15:17 > 1:15:18advisor on anabolic steroids.
1:15:21 > 1:15:27Thank you for joining us. We are talking about younger man under this
1:15:27 > 1:15:36pressure. Where are they getting steroids? EGMs? -- The gym?Many
1:15:36 > 1:15:43access it within the gym. But we have the Internet now which has made
1:15:43 > 1:15:47a massive change in the last 20 years. Many people are accessing it
1:15:47 > 1:15:53directly without having to have any interaction with people who can pass
1:15:53 > 1:16:00health related information on to them.How easily is it misused?You
1:16:00 > 1:16:04could say anyone taking them when not prescribed is misusing anabolic
1:16:04 > 1:16:13steroids. Many people will say they are not misusing them. They get the
1:16:13 > 1:16:19benefits they want. But they do not know what the long-term effects are
1:16:19 > 1:16:23they don't even know what drugs they are taking.I went to university
1:16:23 > 1:16:31with someone he used to go to the gym all the time and took them. He
1:16:31 > 1:16:35did not care about the effects, he just wanted to look great.For
1:16:35 > 1:16:41someone in their early 20s who really wants to look what they
1:16:41 > 1:16:45perceive as good and fulfil their potential, tell them that they may
1:16:45 > 1:16:57have problems with their heart in 20-30 years' time.Is that new? I
1:16:57 > 1:16:59remember Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone when I was
1:16:59 > 1:17:04growing up, they were the icons of men that looks great, that was
1:17:04 > 1:17:11happening then. Why now?It is not new. All the indications are that in
1:17:11 > 1:17:14the last ten years there have been a substantial increase in people using
1:17:14 > 1:17:19anabolic steroids. We can see that from programmes...Who is the role
1:17:19 > 1:17:25model? Who are they trying to look like?It is not just that, you have
1:17:25 > 1:17:31people who just want to put on a bit of muscle, definition, through to
1:17:31 > 1:17:37people who want to be bodybuilders, it a whole range of icons and role
1:17:37 > 1:17:45models we have.How do we counter that? Education? Making people aware
1:17:45 > 1:17:48of the long-term health problems you can get from taking anabolic
1:17:48 > 1:17:52steroids over a period of time?A combination of things. We need to
1:17:52 > 1:18:00get health messages out, but we also need for younger people to stop the
1:18:00 > 1:18:05obsession about appearance. This is something women have had to counter
1:18:05 > 1:18:14the generations. But this is relatively new form an. -- -- for
1:18:14 > 1:18:29men. We need to figure this out.Are women taking it? Gyms have just as
1:18:29 > 1:18:37many women as men.The majority are males. Women might even have
1:18:37 > 1:18:44different drugs as well.Quite fascinating. If you explain to
1:18:44 > 1:18:48someone that taking the drugs will give them heart issues, that might
1:18:48 > 1:18:58drive the point home.Thank you.If you want more on that story, you can
1:18:58 > 1:19:01watch the Steroid Nation on BBC One on the iPlayer right now. The
1:19:01 > 1:19:08weather. If you are looking at the front pages of the papers, high
1:19:08 > 1:19:12winds in the UK. Tell us what is happening across the UK this
1:19:12 > 1:19:19morning.Good morning. Yes, a chance of something more windy coming our
1:19:19 > 1:19:24way as we go towards Christmas Day itself. Seven days is a long time
1:19:24 > 1:19:25away in terms
1:19:25 > 1:19:27itself. Seven days is a long time away in terms of weather.At the
1:19:27 > 1:19:31moment, Christmas Day looks wet and windy in England and Wales. The
1:19:31 > 1:19:33further north and west, sunshine and showers.
1:19:35 > 1:19:43The chance of snow on the hills. It is a bit far away. So we will focus
1:19:43 > 1:19:48on the here and now. What I can tell you is that it is on the chilly side
1:19:48 > 1:19:51in most parts of the UK. Temperatures at seven o'clock
1:19:51 > 1:19:55hovering around the freezing mark in many areas. A frost around. Clear
1:19:55 > 1:19:59skies through the night. Cloud to the south-west. Double-figure
1:19:59 > 1:20:04temperatures in the past few hours. Thick cloud to the far north of
1:20:04 > 1:20:08Scotland. The odd spot of rain and drizzle in Shetland, Orkney, and the
1:20:08 > 1:20:12Hebrides, through the day. Mist and fog patches, especially in
1:20:12 > 1:20:17Birmingham, Manchester, and other areas. They will gradually shift. A
1:20:17 > 1:20:22fine start. Sunny spells. Patchy cloud in north-west England and
1:20:22 > 1:20:27Northern Ireland, breaking at times to let sunshine through. After that,
1:20:27 > 1:20:35temperatures not rising in a hurry. Eastern areas, 46 -- 4- six degrees.
1:20:35 > 1:20:40Through the evening, fog patches in the Midlands and southern England.
1:20:40 > 1:20:47More widespread through the night. Fog in the hills. More cloud
1:20:47 > 1:20:53spilling in. Patchy rain and drizzle keeping temperatures up. In the
1:20:53 > 1:21:00south and east, dense fog. A big week for pre-Christmas travel. If
1:21:00 > 1:21:05you have travel plans tomorrow, even on the way to work, fog could be
1:21:05 > 1:21:12widespread across this part of England. Some gaps. Not everyone
1:21:12 > 1:21:17will have fog. Some sunshine in southern areas and in north-east
1:21:17 > 1:21:22England and Scotland and north-eastern Northern Ireland. For
1:21:22 > 1:21:25much of Northern Ireland and England and Wales, cloud and misty over the
1:21:25 > 1:21:32hills. Patchy rain and drizzle. Most will be dry tomorrow. A bit range
1:21:32 > 1:21:36and temperatures. -- big.
1:21:42 > 1:21:48Fog could be around on Wednesday morning across the south-east of the
1:21:48 > 1:21:52country. The weather front going south and east. Clearing away cloud
1:21:52 > 1:21:56from Scotland and Northern Ireland. Dry and bright. Patchy rain on
1:21:56 > 1:21:59Wednesday in northern England and across Wales to be the further south
1:21:59 > 1:22:03and east, staying dry. Some lingering fog patches. That is how
1:22:03 > 1:22:08it is looking. I will have an update in half an hour. Back to you. Thank
1:22:08 > 1:22:14you. See you then. The papers. A quick update on the Ashes. It could
1:22:14 > 1:22:20be over soon.Australia need one more week to regain the Ashes.There
1:22:20 > 1:22:24was so much hope. I remember talking about the first test.You were so
1:22:24 > 1:22:31positive. I love that about you. Do you know, there is always just a
1:22:31 > 1:22:37little bit of doubt. Did you not feel it? The doubt about it.They
1:22:37 > 1:22:43have a quick hauling attack and we go ten miles per hour slower. --
1:22:43 > 1:22:49bowling. It makes a difference. They have had a difficult day today.
1:22:49 > 1:22:57James Anderson is batting at the moment. Chris Woakes, you know...
1:22:57 > 1:23:05James Anderson has more zeroes than anyone else.Don't mention that.
1:23:05 > 1:23:13They are reining. You would not expect that in Perth. -- raining.
1:23:13 > 1:23:17How on Earth did it happen? It is unheard of. The front pages at the
1:23:17 > 1:23:23moment. The Guardian and many other papers have pictures of the British
1:23:23 > 1:23:30Embassy worker found murdered in Beirut. The belief is she was
1:23:30 > 1:23:50murdered.A picture of her again on The Mirror. Debbie did not win on
1:23:50 > 1:23:53Saturday. McFadden won Strictly. Hopefully he will be on later this
1:23:53 > 1:24:02week.We looked at the weather earlier. That is on the front page
1:24:02 > 1:24:07of the Daily Express. 70 miles per hour storms.In the middle-class
1:24:07 > 1:24:13pension crisis. And a picture of the British Embassy worker. And could
1:24:13 > 1:24:21this be the dress Meghan Markle will wear?And so it begins. We are
1:24:21 > 1:24:28already two weeks in. It will go on. A happy Mo Farah.Why would he not
1:24:28 > 1:24:37want to smile?We will talk a lot about what happened last night
1:24:37 > 1:24:42through the morning. But look at this. Joe Root. You have to feel for
1:24:42 > 1:24:46him, the England captain. That face says it all. It is all going
1:24:46 > 1:24:51horribly wrong for him in Australia. Who will return to in times of
1:24:51 > 1:25:14cricketing crisis? Jeff Boycott. Cook, a failure, Root, failing, the
1:25:14 > 1:25:18Barmy Army is only succeeding at doing the conga on the hill. He says
1:25:18 > 1:25:24that they are not up to it and they looked lost.You love Christmas. You
1:25:24 > 1:25:29have a dog. How much do you spend on your dog at Christmas?In terms of
1:25:29 > 1:25:36presence? I have already spent it. £2 99. There is a lady who spends
1:25:36 > 1:26:00over £1000 on The Daily Mirror. A pampered pooch. It is called Lola.
1:26:00 > 1:26:04It has a named blanket, a coat that matches hers. There she is. That is
1:26:04 > 1:26:08excessive. Pets in clothes? What do you think?I think it is a bad idea.
1:26:08 > 1:26:13But that is what Christmas is all about. Crackers!Cheese and
1:26:13 > 1:26:21crackers!Also the crack a challenge which I think many people will be
1:26:21 > 1:26:28doing. How many can you eat without water? I think it will be three.
1:26:28 > 1:26:40Good morning.Good morning!Good morning. I am in the Cream Cracker
1:26:40 > 1:26:44Factory. They make a merely an every day. It is absolutely boiling. This
1:26:44 > 1:26:51is the production line. They will be shaped and made into crackers. It is
1:26:51 > 1:26:56a busy time of year for them. They make and sell more than double what
1:26:56 > 1:27:04they did for the rest of the year. Everyone is buying them. Can I talk
1:27:04 > 1:27:08to you? I know you are in the middle of your job. What have we got? What
1:27:08 > 1:27:22is going on? It is a long production line.They are going to be cutters
1:27:22 > 1:27:26and straight to the oven.You have worked here 50 years.A happy 50
1:27:26 > 1:27:34years!This is the busiest time of year for you?Yes.Tell us about it.
1:27:34 > 1:27:39It is Christmas. People love crackers. They get shipped all over
1:27:39 > 1:27:46the world. It is a busy time.I will leave you to it because I am getting
1:27:46 > 1:27:51in the way. You may have seen a bike go past. The cameraman cannot see
1:27:51 > 1:27:57it. There it is. That is because the production line is so long.
1:27:57 > 1:28:02Actually, I will take you down the other end now so you can look at it.
1:28:02 > 1:28:08They use that to check the process. It takes 3.5 minutes to make one of
1:28:08 > 1:28:14these crackers. This is a machine which makes a million of them every
1:28:14 > 1:31:44single day. They will spend 4 billion pounds a year
1:31:51 > 1:31:58Hello, this is Breakfast, with Dan Walker and Naga Munchetty.
1:31:58 > 1:32:01Here is a summary of this morning's main stories from BBC News: Police
1:32:01 > 1:32:05in the Lebanese capital of Beirut say they have arrested a suspect
1:32:05 > 1:32:08as part of the investigation into the murder of a British embassy
1:32:08 > 1:32:11worker, whose body was found by the side of a motorway.
1:32:11 > 1:32:13It is understood Rebecca Dykes, who worked for the Department
1:32:13 > 1:32:16for International Development, was abducted after leaving a bar
1:32:16 > 1:32:17on the outskirts of the city.
1:32:17 > 1:32:20Her family say they are devastated by her loss.
1:32:20 > 1:32:23Theresa May is due to meet her Brexit Cabinet today to discuss,
1:32:23 > 1:32:26for the first time, what the UK's future relationship
1:32:26 > 1:32:27with the EU should be.
1:32:27 > 1:32:29The Prime Minister will later address the Commons,
1:32:29 > 1:32:33telling MPs the UK wants to sign trade deals during what she calls
1:32:33 > 1:32:34an implementation period.
1:32:34 > 1:32:40Meanwhile, the EU's chief Brexit negotiator, Michel Barnier,
1:32:40 > 1:32:43has said there was no way the UK will secure a bespoke deal
1:32:43 > 1:32:46with the EU, saying there won't be any cherry-picking
1:32:46 > 1:32:50to accommodate their wishes.
1:32:50 > 1:32:54The family of a taxi driver who was among six people killed
1:32:54 > 1:32:56in a road accident in Birmingham yesterday have described him
1:32:56 > 1:32:57as happy and loving.
1:32:57 > 1:33:00Imtiaz Mohammed and his two passengers all died,
1:33:00 > 1:33:01alongside three men in another car.
1:33:01 > 1:33:03Crash investigators are trying to piece together
1:33:03 > 1:33:24what caused the pile-up.
1:33:24 > 1:33:26Myanmar's leaders could face genocide charges for their treatment
1:33:26 > 1:33:29of the Rohingya ethnic group, according to the UN's
1:33:29 > 1:33:30human rights chief.
1:33:30 > 1:33:33He has told the BBC that the scale and nature of the violence means
1:33:33 > 1:33:36that decisions must have been taken at a high level,
1:33:36 > 1:33:38as our South Asia correspondent Justin Rowlatt reports.
1:33:38 > 1:33:40This boy is 11 years old.
1:33:40 > 1:33:42He draws pictures of the horrors he has witnessed.
1:33:42 > 1:33:44TRANSLATION:Older women were stamped on, and then
1:33:44 > 1:33:47the military grabbed them by the hair and slaughtered them.
1:33:47 > 1:33:58Because I saw that, I am drawing this.
1:33:58 > 1:34:01He is one of 650,000 Rohingya refugees who fled Myanmar
1:34:01 > 1:34:03after a military assault that began in late August.
1:34:03 > 1:34:07"They are coming to kill us," says the man, "They are coming
1:34:07 > 1:34:24to kill us."
1:34:24 > 1:34:26He wants a criminal investigation to identify the perpetrators,
1:34:26 > 1:34:30and in an exclusive interview with the BBC, he does not rule out
1:34:30 > 1:34:32the possibility that Aung San Suu Kyi or military leaders
1:34:32 > 1:34:34could end up in the dock.
1:34:34 > 1:34:37Given the scale of the operation, clearly these would have to be
1:34:37 > 1:34:39decisions taken at a high enough level.
1:34:39 > 1:34:42And then there's the crime of omission, that if it came
1:34:42 > 1:34:45to your knowledge that this was being committed,
1:34:45 > 1:34:48and you did nothing to stop it, then you could be culpable
1:34:48 > 1:34:49as well for that.
1:34:49 > 1:34:53He says only a court can judge that, but he is determined that justice
1:34:53 > 1:34:53should be done.
1:34:53 > 1:34:56In the meantime, though, Monzur Ali and hundreds of thousands
1:34:56 > 1:34:58like him remain in limbo.
1:34:58 > 1:35:01We asked Aung San Suu Kyi for a response, but she has not replied.
1:35:01 > 1:35:10Justin Rowlatt, BBC News.
1:35:10 > 1:35:12The world's busiest airport, which is in Atlanta,
1:35:12 > 1:35:14says electricity has been restored after a power cut caused
1:35:14 > 1:35:15major flight delays.
1:35:15 > 1:35:17Some passengers were left in darkened terminals
1:35:17 > 1:35:18at Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson airport.
1:35:18 > 1:35:20More than 1,000 flights have been cancelled,
1:35:20 > 1:35:22and many are being diverted elsewhere.
1:35:22 > 1:35:24The airport typically handles more than 250,000 passengers and almost
1:35:24 > 1:35:292,500 flights every day.
1:35:29 > 1:35:32Prince Harry has interviewed Barack Obama for his guest edit
1:35:32 > 1:35:34of BBC Radio 4's Today programme, with some
1:35:34 > 1:35:35innovative questioning techniques.
1:35:35 > 1:35:37That was the warm-up to the encounter.
1:35:37 > 1:35:39Do I have to speak faster?
1:35:39 > 1:35:43No, not at all.
1:35:43 > 1:35:45OK, will I need a British accent?
1:35:45 > 1:35:47But if you start doing long pauses between answers,
1:35:47 > 1:35:52you will probably get this face.
1:35:52 > 1:35:55The interview, recorded at this year's Invictus Games in Canada,
1:35:55 > 1:35:59will be broadcast for Prince Harry's guest edition of the programme on 27
1:35:59 > 1:36:11December.
1:36:11 > 1:36:16He was always one of the great orators. There is a difference
1:36:16 > 1:36:19between giving a speech in giving an interview, I suppose. Giving a
1:36:19 > 1:36:24speech you are allowed to do more pauses, dramatic gaps.I think there
1:36:24 > 1:36:29is room for pauses on radio.I believe you are correct. Thank...
1:36:29 > 1:36:38You.
1:36:38 > 1:36:41And you have your Ashes face.Are you ready for a dramatic pause?
1:36:41 > 1:36:48England are just one wicket away from losing the Ashes. All the other
1:36:48 > 1:36:52mornings of the series they have steadily lost wickets. Rain had
1:36:52 > 1:36:55threatened to hold the Australians up and give them hope they could
1:36:55 > 1:36:59save the match. The morning's play was washed out, as groundsmen
1:36:59 > 1:37:14struggled to make a playable. Dawid Malan went after making a half
1:37:14 > 1:37:18century. Stuart Broad was the ninth wicket to fall, going for a duck to
1:37:18 > 1:37:21leave England on the brink of a humiliating series defeat.
1:37:21 > 1:37:23Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers says their 69-game unbeaten domestic
1:37:23 > 1:37:27run may never be surpassed by another team, after his side
1:37:27 > 1:37:28were thrashed 4-0 at Hearts.
1:37:28 > 1:37:3016-year-old Harry Cochrane opened the scoring with his first senior
1:37:30 > 1:37:31goal for Hearts.
1:37:31 > 1:37:33Then Kyle Lafferty beat Celtic goalkeeper Craig Gordon,
1:37:33 > 1:37:35to make it 2-0 before half time.
1:37:35 > 1:37:38Two second-half goals completed the stunning victory.
1:37:38 > 1:37:41Manchester United have closed the gap to Premier League leaders
1:37:41 > 1:37:45Manchester City to 11 points, thanks to the 2-1 win at West Brom.
1:37:45 > 1:37:47Romelu Lukaku scored his 15th Manchester United goal to put
1:37:47 > 1:37:48the visitors in front.
1:37:48 > 1:37:50It is now back-to-back strikes for the Belgian,
1:37:50 > 1:37:52who had recently had a barren spell.
1:37:52 > 1:37:55Jose Mourinho says he and his players aren't giving up hope
1:37:55 > 1:37:56of catching City.
1:37:56 > 1:37:59Liverpool moved into the top four by beating Bournemouth 4-0.
1:37:59 > 1:38:02The pick of the goals was the opener from Philippe Coutinho.
1:38:02 > 1:38:04The victory extended Liverpool's unbeaten run in all competitions
1:38:04 > 1:38:08to 12 matches.
1:38:08 > 1:38:11Britain's most successful ever track athlete, Sir Mo Farah,
1:38:11 > 1:38:13has been named BBC Sports Personality of the Year.
1:38:13 > 1:38:15World superbike champion Jonathan Rea was second,
1:38:15 > 1:38:17and double Paralympic 100m gold-medallist
1:38:17 > 1:38:18Jonnie Peacock was third.
1:38:18 > 1:38:20Heavyweight world champion Anthony Joshua was just 18 votes out
1:38:20 > 1:38:22of making the top three.
1:38:22 > 1:38:25But it is safe to say Sir Mo's interview didn't quite go according
1:38:25 > 1:38:32to plan on the night.
1:38:32 > 1:38:55The 2017 BBC Sports Personality of the Year is Mo Farah.
1:38:55 > 1:39:01Mo, I hope you can hear us, Rihanna's there with the trophy
1:39:01 > 1:39:07that she can present.
1:39:07 > 1:39:10I think...
1:39:10 > 1:39:13I think that just about sums up Mo's evening, doesn't it really?
1:39:13 > 1:39:16This is what Sir Mo had to say when the line
1:39:16 > 1:39:21was finally reconnected.
1:39:21 > 1:39:24To win this, I didn't honestly come out tonight thinking,
1:39:24 > 1:39:27yeah, maybe top three, see how it goes, because we've got
1:39:27 > 1:39:31amazing superstars in sports.
1:39:31 > 1:39:36We've got Anthony Joshua, Lewis, Johnnie Peacock,
1:39:36 > 1:39:40we've got all of the boys.
1:39:40 > 1:39:44It's been amazing.
1:39:44 > 1:39:47When you look at it, comparing yourself with other
1:39:47 > 1:39:50athletes, you think I could finish in the top three.
1:39:50 > 1:39:53I didn't imagine I was ever going to win this.
1:39:53 > 1:39:56Come so close in 2012, and, you know - but I guess
1:39:56 > 1:40:01anything can happen.
1:40:01 > 1:40:03You just have to dig deep and keep working.
1:40:03 > 1:40:06I just want to thank everybody who has supported me.
1:40:06 > 1:40:09It has been an incredible journey, and it's very exciting.
1:40:09 > 1:40:12Let's have a look at how the public voted on the night.
1:40:12 > 1:40:15You can see that Sir Mo, who wasn't the favourite to win,
1:40:15 > 1:40:18clearly comes out on top, with more than 83,000 votes.
1:40:18 > 1:40:20Jonathan Rea was second, with more than 80,000 votes.
1:40:20 > 1:40:22Jonnie Peacock was third, with 73,429.
1:40:22 > 1:40:25But Anthony Joshua missed out on being in the top three
1:40:25 > 1:40:29by just 18 votes.
1:40:29 > 1:40:32The headlines from the night may have included a surprise winner
1:40:32 > 1:40:34and technical difficulties, but there was much more
1:40:34 > 1:40:37to Sports Personality of the Year 2017, as I found out.
1:40:37 > 1:40:41This report contains some flash photography.
1:40:41 > 1:40:44It is the most glamorous night of the sporting year,
1:40:44 > 1:40:46when the trophy winners, the award winners, all swap
1:40:46 > 1:40:48the training track for the red carpet.
1:40:48 > 1:40:58And this.
1:40:58 > 1:41:00As a sportsman, you want to win everything.
1:41:00 > 1:41:03You're angry when you lose, but when you go home
1:41:03 > 1:41:05and you have your daughter smiling and giggling away,
1:41:05 > 1:41:10it's hard to stay mad.
1:41:10 > 1:41:12What are you most looking forward to tonight?
1:41:12 > 1:41:15Probably just having a little bit of champagne for once.
1:41:15 > 1:41:19I don't really get to drink.
1:41:19 > 1:41:21I want to share something with you now that has
1:41:21 > 1:41:22never happened before.
1:41:22 > 1:41:25We are allowed inside the make-up room with the presenters,
1:41:25 > 1:41:27as they get ready for Sports Personality.
1:41:27 > 1:41:30Clare, who is the brave soul who has agreed to do this,
1:41:30 > 1:41:31thank you so much.
1:41:31 > 1:41:32How are you feeling?
1:41:32 > 1:41:33I feel OK.
1:41:33 > 1:41:36It's a really weird thing with Sports Personality of the Year,
1:41:36 > 1:41:40because I always think I'm fine, and then my tummy goes really odd,
1:41:40 > 1:41:43and all last night I was gurgling, and all through the rehearsals
1:41:43 > 1:41:45today.
1:41:45 > 1:41:48I think I don't get nervous, but maybe I do.
1:41:48 > 1:41:51Usually when I play at awards ceremonies, that means I've won
1:41:51 > 1:41:59something, so I'm intrigued as to what I'm going to get tonight.
1:41:59 > 1:42:01The world watched the Manchester derby last week.
1:42:01 > 1:42:04We hear there was a little bit of a scuffle afterwards,
1:42:04 > 1:42:07and there may have been some Oasis songs being played.
1:42:07 > 1:42:11To read that the thing which annoyed Mourinho so much was the players
1:42:11 > 1:42:13celebrating while playing Don't Look Back in Anger,
1:42:13 > 1:42:26it kind of made my life.
1:42:26 > 1:42:28The atmosphere of excitement is building inside the arena.
1:42:28 > 1:42:31It is one minute until we are live on television.
1:42:31 > 1:42:34Time for me to sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.
1:42:34 > 1:42:36In third place is Jonnie Peacock.
1:42:36 > 1:42:38When he said that name, it was unreal.
1:42:38 > 1:42:42And I'm a massive Liverpool fan, my mum is going to be ecstatic just
1:42:42 > 1:42:48that it's him.
1:42:48 > 1:42:57I want you to do something for me.
1:42:57 > 1:43:00Look down at camera there and give your mum a wave.
1:43:00 > 1:43:03I don't think my mum is going to be up.
1:43:03 > 1:43:05If she is up, big wave.
1:43:05 > 1:43:12I got a text from my sister, just said Mum is in tears.
1:43:12 > 1:43:14When Jonnie Peacock was called out in third, I thought oh,
1:43:14 > 1:43:18well, at least I will get a drink out of the night.
1:43:18 > 1:43:19And to be second was...
1:43:19 > 1:43:29I didn't know if I should get up, and then my wife said it's me.
1:43:29 > 1:43:31So yes, extremely proud.
1:43:31 > 1:43:31So congratulations.
1:43:31 > 1:43:32Thank you.
1:43:32 > 1:43:34You were so composed on the stage.
1:43:34 > 1:43:35I was so nervous.
1:43:35 > 1:43:37Just all the emotions came flooding back.
1:43:37 > 1:43:39You actually can't say too late tonight, can you, because...
1:43:39 > 1:43:44I have my little baby in the hotel, with my mum, so I have to go
1:43:44 > 1:43:45and make sure she's OK.
1:43:45 > 1:43:46What next, though?
1:43:46 > 1:43:48Obviously I want to stay involved in sport.
1:43:48 > 1:43:51I want people to be active, and do different things,
1:43:51 > 1:43:52so it's exciting.
1:43:52 > 1:43:52Watch this space.
1:43:52 > 1:44:02Yes.
1:44:02 > 1:44:05Well done, thank you.
1:44:05 > 1:44:07Another special winner of the night is Denise Larrad,
1:44:07 > 1:44:09who scooped the BBC Get Inspired Unsung Hero award.
1:44:09 > 1:44:11Despite working night shifts in a warehouse,
1:44:11 > 1:44:14she finds time to volunteer, and helps lead fitness classes
1:44:14 > 1:44:17for children, family, and the elderly, with her sole aim
1:44:17 > 1:44:18being to get people fit.
1:44:18 > 1:44:25Denise joins us now.
1:44:25 > 1:44:30Welcome. Good morning. Thank you so much for bringing that award end. We
1:44:30 > 1:44:36saw Europe on telly last night, onstage. Just share with everyone at
1:44:36 > 1:44:39home what was happening while you were on stage, because Clare balding
1:44:39 > 1:44:46was particularly kind to you.I was so nervous, I was thinking my God, I
1:44:46 > 1:44:51have nothing really prepared in my head. I didn't know what I was going
1:44:51 > 1:44:55to say when I got there, and when I got up on stage she was whispering
1:44:55 > 1:45:00in my ear saying you have a standing ovation. She says just relax and
1:45:00 > 1:45:03enjoy it. So that is what I try to do.
1:45:08 > 1:45:16You people are.That was the mission. -- you get people moving. I
1:45:16 > 1:45:29wanted to get people moving more. I began walking and running groups.
1:45:29 > 1:45:33That's one of my runners.A range of people. How did you get them
1:45:33 > 1:45:37involved?I can be very persuasive. If I decided you were going to
1:45:37 > 1:45:38involved?I can be very persuasive. If I decided you were going to join,
1:45:38 > 1:45:50it is futile not to, to be honest. Many people have that as a job, but
1:45:50 > 1:45:56you are already working.I work late shifts, I have half an hour sleep,
1:45:56 > 1:46:01and then I take a group running. When do you sleep?A few hours in
1:46:01 > 1:46:07the afternoon. But I don't work the next night.No one is ever allowed
1:46:07 > 1:46:15to come in early in the morning and say they did not sleep.What
1:46:15 > 1:46:28differences do people feel after joining a group?Many of my walkers,
1:46:28 > 1:46:32there are over 50s, many are elderly and live alone. They go out and
1:46:32 > 1:46:36socialise and do all of the things with them. It enables them to meet
1:46:36 > 1:46:40people and let them get out of the house to find someone to talk to so
1:46:40 > 1:46:46they are not by themselves. And you get exercise stop at what was the
1:46:46 > 1:46:57highlight last night for you? Meeting Paula Radcliffe.Incredible.
1:46:57 > 1:47:03Congratulations. You have other rewards as well. You will have to
1:47:03 > 1:47:09remodel the lounge to fit them in. It can go next to my Olympic Torch.
1:47:09 > 1:47:21Not a bad mantelpiece.One side of the couch, Olympic Torch, the other
1:47:21 > 1:47:27side, Sports Personality Award.That is an impressive lounge. You are one
1:47:27 > 1:47:32of those people that keeps people going. That is why we love sport.
1:47:32 > 1:47:38Thank you for coming in.Before I go, I want to share this moment. I
1:47:38 > 1:47:44am sorry. Australia just regained the Ashes. It is over.That went
1:47:44 > 1:47:55really quickly.Yes. Australia just regained the Ashes. 3-0. They got
1:47:55 > 1:48:05victory in Brisbane and Adelaide. There are still matches to play in
1:48:05 > 1:48:08Melbourne and Sydney. Big questions about captaincy and the England set
1:48:08 > 1:48:14up.Last week, at one point England were 368 - five in their first
1:48:14 > 1:48:19innings. It is hard to lose a test from that point. They collapsed.
1:48:19 > 1:48:24Australia bat for over 600. Then it is done.It went so quickly. We
1:48:24 > 1:48:29thought we had more time. But they rattled through it. What a shame.
1:48:29 > 1:48:39Thank you. And you as well. At least you got an award. And now for the
1:48:39 > 1:48:42sunshine and really high temperatures for us in the next
1:48:42 > 1:48:49week.Thank you. It is usually my job to put a downer on things.
1:48:49 > 1:48:52job to put a downer on things. Perhaps not this morning. This was a
1:48:52 > 1:49:00short while ago in Southampton. A nice day for the majority. Still
1:49:00 > 1:49:09cold. A selection of temperatures. Frost on the grass and on the cards.

1:49:24 > 1:49:30Patchy mist and fog. It will shift. Cloud at times in Scotland and
1:49:30 > 1:49:36Northern Ireland. Most of you, try and sunny on Monday and on the way
1:49:36 > 1:49:41to work and back as well. Temperatures, not especially high.
1:49:41 > 1:49:45Close to double figures for some in the west. The cloud to the north of
1:49:45 > 1:49:51Scotland. Patchy rain through the night. Cloud thickens up in the
1:49:51 > 1:49:54night in Scotland and Northern Ireland in northern England. Mist in
1:49:54 > 1:50:00fog in the hills. Temperatures dropping with widespread frost for
1:50:00 > 1:50:04England and Wales. Dense and widespread frost patches. The
1:50:04 > 1:50:10rush-hour tomorrow morning will be a much more difficult affair for those
1:50:10 > 1:50:14across the Midlands, East Anglia, in southern England. Long-lasting fog.
1:50:14 > 1:50:20Freezing in places as well. It will affect some of the major airports in
1:50:20 > 1:50:27the lead-up to Christmas. One of the areas will have fog struggling to
1:50:27 > 1:50:35lift. Some sunshine to the north of Scotland and Northern Ireland. Cloud
1:50:35 > 1:50:41tomorrow producing fog over the hills. Patchy drizzle towards the
1:50:41 > 1:50:46coast. Tomorrow, another dry day. Big variations in temperature. With
1:50:46 > 1:50:56the fog lingering, 14-15. Most other areas in between. Tuesday night and
1:50:56 > 1:50:59Wednesday, high pressure to the south-east. Fog becoming an issue.
1:50:59 > 1:51:05This weather front, clear skies in Scotland and Northern Ireland after
1:51:05 > 1:51:14rain. Patchy rain in England and Wales. The south and east, dry.

1:51:18 > 1:51:29Through the week, not a lot of rain in the forecast. Light winds around.
1:51:29 > 1:51:33Fog will be a problem. We will keep you updated. Back to you.Thank you.

1:52:07 > 1:52:08how they cope.
1:52:08 > 1:52:11Good morning.Good morning.This is the start of a process to make
1:52:11 > 1:52:15crackers. I have been mesmerised by this. It is fascinating. It goes
1:52:15 > 1:52:19through here and it will go up and down the production line. A really
1:52:19 > 1:52:25busy time of year for them. This is when they are making and selling the
1:52:25 > 1:52:30most crackers. . As you said, food is obviously big business at this
1:52:30 > 1:52:34time of year for many different people in the industry. This is one
1:52:34 > 1:52:37of the people that makes sure this place is going like clockwork. Tell
1:52:37 > 1:52:47us what we have.This is the man crack a line -- main cracker line.
1:52:47 > 1:53:11This makes the crackers. You have just walked past the dough, goes
1:53:11 > 1:53:14through, gets bubbles in crackers, goes through the shaper, then the
1:53:14 > 1:53:18oven and packing lines. And we just saw someone go past in a bike.It is
1:53:18 > 1:53:2290 metres long so we gave them bicycles to allow them to go up and
1:53:22 > 1:53:28down to check the line. This is the busiest time of year. What does that
1:53:28 > 1:53:38mean?It means we have 70... Sorry, 700 employees added on to a further
1:53:38 > 1:53:47500 full production. Most of the products are in store. We are
1:53:47 > 1:53:58slowing down for 2018.I will get you to crack on. I can't help that
1:53:58 > 1:54:08joke. We have others here to talk to. Obviously, they are getting you
1:54:08 > 1:54:12the food and you distribute it. What is it like this time of year?
1:54:12 > 1:54:19Extremely busy. We think about Christmas, we eat Christmas, we plan
1:54:19 > 1:54:25all year. Christmas Eve will will be the busiest. We have more colleagues
1:54:25 > 1:54:30in store. It is the most important time for us at the moment.It is
1:54:30 > 1:54:35interesting. At this time of year we spend a lot on food. Prices have
1:54:35 > 1:54:42been going up noticeably. But we are spending a lot.Consumers are aware
1:54:42 > 1:54:46of that price increase and they know it is going to get worse next year
1:54:46 > 1:54:49because they know that supermarkets have been holding on to the price
1:54:49 > 1:54:54increases. We have cut back, but mainly on Christmas cards and
1:54:54 > 1:55:03decorations. We will still have a decent Christmas meal for Christmas.
1:55:03 > 1:55:09What about prices?We have managed them extremely carefully to keep
1:55:09 > 1:55:14them down for customers. We have made sure they can afford what they
1:55:14 > 1:55:19can Christmas. We have done it in different ways. We make sure we have
1:55:19 > 1:55:24the best products we can. We try to make sure we pass on as little as
1:55:24 > 1:55:29possible to customers.Thank you. I just want to show you the production
1:55:29 > 1:55:39line. It is very long. It is hard to show you all of it. I love watching
1:55:39 > 1:55:44this. Look at this. They have just been cut up and are about to go off
1:55:44 > 1:55:51to be baked. You can see some quality control. Fascinating. More
1:55:51 > 1:55:58from me later.Thank you.It wasn't quite Mo Farah issues, but it wasn't
1:55:58 > 1:56:05the strongest.Apologies about the camera.We have a lot to talk about.
1:56:05 > 1:56:15Many guests coming on.It will be a musical Christmas theme today.There

2:00:19 > 2:00:21A man is arrested by police investigating the murder of a
2:00:21 > 2:00:24British embassy worker strangled to death in Beirut. It's believed
2:00:24 > 2:00:27Rebecca Dykes was abducted after leaving a bar on the outskirts of
2:00:27 > 2:00:31the city. Her family say they're devastated by her death.
2:00:38 > 2:00:40Good morning, it's Monday 18th December.
2:00:40 > 2:00:44Also this morning:
2:00:44 > 2:00:47Theresa May meets her Brexit cabinet to discuss, for the first time,
2:00:47 > 2:00:51the UK's future relationship with the EU.
2:00:51 > 2:00:54A father of six is the first of the victims to be named
2:00:54 > 2:00:59after a devastating car crash in Birmingham.
2:00:59 > 2:01:04In sport, Australia have won the Ashes, beating England by an innings

2:01:19 > 2:01:21Mo Farah!
2:01:21 > 2:01:23A shock win for Britain's most successful track athlete
2:01:23 > 2:01:26was hampered by a few technical problems, but Sir Mo
2:01:26 > 2:01:29was delighted at finally getting his hands on the award.
2:01:29 > 2:01:32I didn't imagine I was going to - ever going to win this.
2:01:32 > 2:01:34Come so close in 2012, and, you know...
2:01:34 > 2:01:40But I guess anything can happen.
2:01:40 > 2:01:48Good morning from the Jacob's cream cracker factory in Liverpool, we are
2:01:48 > 2:01:52here talking about Christmas food. We are expected to spend £4 billion
2:01:52 > 2:01:59on it over the festive season, and I am talking about how companies
2:01:59 > 2:02:05prepare...That looks so wrong but so right!Matt is always right and
2:02:05 > 2:02:05he has the weather!
2:02:05 > 2:02:06I
2:02:06 > 2:02:10would like to say so but probably not! A frosty start to the working
2:02:10 > 2:02:15week. A dry and sunny day through tonight and into tomorrow, the fog
2:02:15 > 2:02:19is going to be a problem for some people on the move. The details in
2:02:19 > 2:02:2315 minutes...
2:02:23 > 2:02:24Good morning.
2:02:24 > 2:02:25First, our main story.
2:02:25 > 2:02:28Police in Beirut investigating the murder of a British woman whose
2:02:28 > 2:02:30body was found by the side of a motorway say they have
2:02:30 > 2:02:33arrested a man who had been working as a taxi driver.
2:02:33 > 2:02:38That news has come into us in the last hour.
2:02:38 > 2:02:41Rebecca Dykes was working at the UK embassy in the Lebanese capital city
2:02:41 > 2:02:42for the Department for International Development.
2:02:42 > 2:02:45It's thought she had been abducted and strangled after leaving a party.
2:02:45 > 2:02:51Our Middle East Correspondent Martin Patience joins us from Beirut.
2:02:51 > 2:02:54Martin, good morning. The state of the investigation, we have heard in
2:02:54 > 2:02:59the last hour, you told us about this arrest?That's right, it does
2:02:59 > 2:03:03appear that there has been a big breakthrough in this case. Lebanese
2:03:03 > 2:03:07police have told us that they arrested a suspect in the early
2:03:07 > 2:03:11hours of this morning. It is believed that man had been working
2:03:11 > 2:03:16as a taxi driver. Rebecca had been out on Friday night at a going away
2:03:16 > 2:03:20party for a colleague. It was in a popular bar area of the city.
2:03:20 > 2:03:25Sometime after midnight, she left the bar to go home. It appears that
2:03:25 > 2:03:31perhaps she got into a taxi. Then on Saturday, her body was found dumped
2:03:31 > 2:03:35close to a motorway on the outskirts of the city. As you were saying,
2:03:35 > 2:03:38police have told us that they believe she had been strangled.
2:03:38 > 2:03:45There must be so much shock and pain from the expat community there in
2:03:45 > 2:03:54reaction to this?There is shock and devastation. Despite chaos elsewhere
2:03:54 > 2:03:59in the region, Beirut is regarded as a relatively safe city. We heard
2:03:59 > 2:04:04from Hugo Short, and he has said...
2:04:09 > 2:04:17We heard from another ambassador who was working with Rebecca. With
2:04:17 > 2:04:22extensive experience in the Middle East, he described her as a huge
2:04:22 > 2:04:25star who worked on the humanitarian front line.Martin Patience there
2:04:25 > 2:04:31from Beirut, thank you.
2:04:31 > 2:04:34Theresa May is due to meet her Brexit cabinet today to discuss
2:04:34 > 2:04:36for the first time what the UK's future relationship
2:04:36 > 2:04:37with the EU should be.
2:04:37 > 2:04:40The Prime Minister will also address the Commons this afternoon,
2:04:40 > 2:04:43to outline when she wants the UK to be able to sign trade deals
2:04:43 > 2:04:44with non-EU countries.
2:04:44 > 2:04:46Our political correspondent Ben Wright is in Westminster.
2:04:46 > 2:04:48Ben - another crucial step in Brexit talks?
2:04:48 > 2:04:52They will talk about what happens afterwards for the first time, it is
2:04:52 > 2:04:57strange it hasn't been talked about before!I agree, 18 months after the
2:04:57 > 2:05:01EU referendum these are the first formal discussions that Theresa
2:05:01 > 2:05:04May's cabinet has had about the future relationship, the trading
2:05:04 > 2:05:08relationship that Britain will seek with the EU once we have left in
2:05:08 > 2:05:13March 20 19. We know that for two years after, there will be an
2:05:13 > 2:05:17implementation transition phase with things staying as they are now, in
2:05:17 > 2:05:21terms of being in the single market and accepting free movement of
2:05:21 > 2:05:25people and in return for that, what they will discuss is what happens
2:05:25 > 2:05:29beyond that. It is an issue of profound importance to the UK, for
2:05:29 > 2:05:34decades to come, there will be disagreement about it, no doubt.
2:05:34 > 2:05:39Some Cabinet ministers like Amber Rudd, the Home Secretary, and Damian
2:05:39 > 2:05:43Green, the effective Deputy Prime Minister, big Remain supporters
2:05:43 > 2:05:46during the referendum. They will be wanting as close an alignment as
2:05:46 > 2:05:51possible with the EU, after Brexit, economically, in exchange for market
2:05:51 > 2:05:56access. The supporters like Michael Gove and Boris Johnson will say that
2:05:56 > 2:05:59Britain should diverged more from economic rules and regulations and
2:05:59 > 2:06:07have more economic freedom, to strike trade deals and all the rest
2:06:07 > 2:06:12of it. There will be arguments going right away into next year about this
2:06:12 > 2:06:14relationship, there will be trade-offs and reason they will have
2:06:14 > 2:06:18to find a way through. She will be speaking to MPs in the House of
2:06:18 > 2:06:23Commons later. This is though a negotiation and the EU has made it
2:06:23 > 2:06:27clear throughout that the UK cannot expect the same economic advantages
2:06:27 > 2:06:32it has now as an EU member outside of the European Union, that there
2:06:32 > 2:06:34will be a trade-off involved and that is something the Cabinet will
2:06:34 > 2:06:41have to grapple with.Ben, thank you.
2:06:41 > 2:06:44The first of six victims killed in a multiple pile-up in Birmingham
2:06:44 > 2:06:46has been named as taxi driver Imtiaz Mohammed.
2:06:46 > 2:06:49The father of six had told his wife he was on his last job
2:06:49 > 2:06:50and was on his way home.
2:06:50 > 2:06:52Police are investigating how the crash happened,
2:06:52 > 2:06:54as Jane Frances Kelly reports.
2:06:54 > 2:06:57Debris can be seen strewn across four lanes in these pictures
2:06:57 > 2:07:00taken in the immediate aftermath of the crash.
2:07:00 > 2:07:03One of those who died in what was described as a harrowing
2:07:03 > 2:07:05scene has been named as taxi driver Imtiaz Mohammed,
2:07:05 > 2:07:10who was a father-of-six.
2:07:10 > 2:07:14He had called his wife to say it was his last job of the night,
2:07:14 > 2:07:16and that he would be on his way home shortly.
2:07:16 > 2:07:22Two passengers in Mr Mohammed's taxi also died, but the man and the woman
2:07:22 > 2:07:25in the small car crushed between the taxi and the wall walked
2:07:25 > 2:07:27away with minor injuries.
2:07:27 > 2:07:31The crash happened on a section of the Belgrave Middle Way,
2:07:31 > 2:07:33a busy road in the heart of Birmingham.
2:07:33 > 2:07:36The vehicles collided at an entrance to an underpass at the junction
2:07:36 > 2:07:39of Bristol Road.
2:07:39 > 2:07:42The road had to be closed to allow the emergency services to safely
2:07:42 > 2:07:43examine the scene.
2:07:43 > 2:07:45It will take some time to unpick the scene,
2:07:45 > 2:07:48and just understand exactly what's happened, and it would be unfair
2:07:48 > 2:07:50of me to speculate at this time.
2:07:50 > 2:07:53What I can say is that we're looking into all sorts of conditions,
2:07:53 > 2:07:55the road conditions.
2:07:55 > 2:07:58We're aware the road was gritted at 5:00pm last night,
2:07:58 > 2:08:02but obviously that's just one factor of many that we need to consider.
2:08:02 > 2:08:04The police are appealing for witnesses, and any footage
2:08:04 > 2:08:06they may have, to try to piece together the cause
2:08:06 > 2:08:11of the multi-car crash.

2:08:18 > 2:08:20Myanmar's leaders could face genocide charges, according
2:08:20 > 2:08:21to the UN's human rights chief.
2:08:21 > 2:08:24He's told the BBC that the organised and planned nature of
2:08:24 > 2:08:27the persecution of the Rohingya ethnic group in Myanmar means
2:08:27 > 2:08:28genocide could not be ruled out.

2:09:10 > 2:09:16I say the painful bit? England have lost the Ashes to Australia.They
2:09:16 > 2:09:20were the second best at everything, won't they?They have been all
2:09:20 > 2:09:26along. I've just been trying to read what England captain Joe Root has
2:09:26 > 2:09:29said in the last couple of minutes, he has spoken to the press, you have
2:09:29 > 2:09:34to come straight out as England captain and say what went wrong. He
2:09:34 > 2:09:38has been a little positive, which is strange to start with. He has also
2:09:38 > 2:09:42said that it is difficult to take, fair play to Australia, they
2:09:42 > 2:09:50outplayed us in all of the games. I think it's fair enough. It has been
2:09:50 > 2:09:54disastrous. They haven't played as well.He is facing a lot of
2:09:54 > 2:09:58criticism.And a lot of pressure. The England captaincy, should you
2:09:58 > 2:10:04give it to your best player? It is the pressure of the captaincy, is it
2:10:04 > 2:10:09too much for a Ashes Series like this? Geoffrey Boycott is
2:10:09 > 2:10:12interesting on this, who should step up and be leader? It isn't
2:10:12 > 2:10:18necessarily always your best and most talented player.We spoke about
2:10:18 > 2:10:23Sports Personality of the Year last night.That was dramatic, where you
2:10:23 > 2:10:29shocked at the end?Even Mo Farah was surprised?He looked more
2:10:29 > 2:10:34surprised than anyone!
2:10:34 > 2:10:37The four time Olympic champion, Sir Mo Farah, has won this year's
2:10:37 > 2:10:38BBC Sports Personality of the Year.
2:10:38 > 2:10:40Motorcyclist Jonathan Rea was second, and paralympic sprinter,
2:10:40 > 2:10:41Jonnie Peacock, was third.
2:10:41 > 2:10:42The pre-award favourite, heavyweight world champ
2:10:42 > 2:10:44Anthony Joshua finished in fourth place.
2:10:44 > 2:10:46But the result wasn't the only unexpected event.
2:10:46 > 2:10:48When Sir Mo's shock victory was announced, the link
2:10:48 > 2:10:50to his location in London went down.
2:10:50 > 2:10:58Eventually the line was established, this is what he had to say.
2:10:58 > 2:11:02As a athlete, what I have achieved has been incredible over the years.
2:11:02 > 2:11:04And, for all the youngsters out there, people out there,
2:11:04 > 2:11:06you can work hard and you can achieve your dreams.
2:11:06 > 2:11:13Anything is possible in life.
2:11:13 > 2:11:15If you believe in it, work at it, keep grafting,
2:11:15 > 2:11:16grafting, anything is possible.
2:11:16 > 2:11:19What an amazing night it is, and I wish I was there,
2:11:19 > 2:11:26but unfortunately I'm sorry I can't be there, guys.
2:11:26 > 2:11:29I'm here with my family, and my kids are here as well.
2:11:29 > 2:11:34But it's all exciting for us, and I just can't believe I won!
2:11:34 > 2:11:39If there is anything that Mo Farah... If it sums him up, the
2:11:39 > 2:11:44word "Persistence". He is good at keeping ongoing and never giving up.
2:11:44 > 2:11:49There you go. That award means an awful lot to him. He has been hugely
2:11:49 > 2:11:53disappointed by missing out on it in the past. Persistence pays,
2:11:53 > 2:12:00eventually, in the end. He got there.He had his lad crawling all
2:12:00 > 2:12:05over him in the interview?Yes, brokers microphone! It was all right
2:12:05 > 2:12:11in the end. Matt is going to bring us up to date
2:12:11 > 2:12:16with the weather in a couple of minutes. Now let's bring you back to
2:12:16 > 2:12:23one hour -- one of our main stories this morning. The plight of hundreds
2:12:23 > 2:12:25of thousands of Rohingya people is said to be the world's fastest
2:12:25 > 2:12:28growing refugee crisis. Since August more than half a million have fled
2:12:28 > 2:12:30the destruction of their homes and persecution in Myanmar for
2:12:30 > 2:12:35neighbouring Bangladesh. The UN Human Rights Chief, Zeid Ra'ad Al
2:12:35 > 2:12:37Hussein, has told the BBC's Panorama programme that senior figures in
2:12:37 > 2:12:39Myanmar including Aung San Suu Kyi could face charges of genocide for
2:12:39 > 2:12:41what has happened. We're joined by our South Asia correspondent Justin
2:12:41 > 2:12:45Rowlatt. It's good to see you this morning. We have been involved in
2:12:45 > 2:12:50this and following it closely lately. What did you witness when
2:12:50 > 2:12:55you first arrived in southern Bangladesh?I turned up in early
2:12:55 > 2:12:59September, there were terror attacks on the 25th of August, then this
2:12:59 > 2:13:03huge military operation against the Rohingya people. They started to
2:13:03 > 2:13:07pour over the border. We were alerted to this. I arrived in early
2:13:07 > 2:13:11September and it was an extraordinary sight. The monsoon
2:13:11 > 2:13:15rains were on, hundreds of thousands of people were arriving and crossing
2:13:15 > 2:13:20the river. They were arriving in Bangladesh and with nothing. They
2:13:20 > 2:13:25left with nothing. Their homes were being burned by the authorities and
2:13:25 > 2:13:29local people. They were coming over and trying to setup their homes in
2:13:29 > 2:13:33the hills of Bangladesh. It was extraordinary. The horrific thing
2:13:33 > 2:13:38is, you talk these people and hear of these kinds of things that had
2:13:38 > 2:13:41been happening. I would not want to convey these things to you, the
2:13:41 > 2:13:46depth of the horror that some people had experienced. We met a young kid,
2:13:46 > 2:13:51this is the second time, when I went back last month, we met an
2:13:51 > 2:13:5411-year-old kid, and he talked to us about the kinds of stuff he had
2:13:54 > 2:14:01seen. He draws pictures of what he has seen.TRANSLATION:Older women
2:14:01 > 2:14:11were stamped on and grab them by their hair and slaughtered them.
2:14:11 > 2:14:17Because I saw that, I am drawing this.STUDIO: Do they want to go
2:14:17 > 2:14:22back to Myanmar, would they ever be able to do that?The hope is, the
2:14:22 > 2:14:25world community would like for them to go back to their homes in Myanmar
2:14:25 > 2:14:29but the problem is more than 300 villages have been completely burned
2:14:29 > 2:14:33to the ground so they haven't really got homes to go back to. The
2:14:33 > 2:14:39programme we did today on Panorama shows a long history of
2:14:39 > 2:14:43persecutions, this isn't a one-off incident. They've been persecuted
2:14:43 > 2:14:47for years. There are discussions between the Myanmar government and
2:14:47 > 2:14:50Bangladesh about repatriation and bringing the people back but the UN
2:14:50 > 2:14:54say, until we can be certain that they will be saved when they go
2:14:54 > 2:14:57home, they cannot, in conscience, let them go back. There are huge
2:14:57 > 2:15:02questions about how long they will be there. Let's be clear, 650,000
2:15:02 > 2:15:10people in the latest wave, there are more than 250,000 people there.
2:15:10 > 2:15:13Nearly 1 million refugees packed into what is one of the poorest
2:15:13 > 2:15:19almost densely populated countries in the world.What will happen to
2:15:19 > 2:15:23those people and how will that pan out? In the dynamic of that country,
2:15:23 > 2:15:27it will be a lots to call. You have spoken to the UN High Commissioner
2:15:27 > 2:15:33for human rights about this as well. What have they said?We have, this
2:15:33 > 2:15:37is where the issue of genocide comes up, he said the widespread organised
2:15:37 > 2:15:42and systematic nature of the military campaign, that genocide
2:15:42 > 2:15:46could not be ruled out. It isn't his job to judge genocide, he is the
2:15:46 > 2:15:50human rights chief, a court would have to do that. He has called for a
2:15:50 > 2:15:55criminal investigation. He said, we want to get to the perpetrators, and
2:15:55 > 2:15:59he would like to see the UN run a criminal investigation with a view
2:15:59 > 2:16:03to charges in future. You can be convicted of genocide if you knew it
2:16:03 > 2:16:08was happening and you stood by and did not do anything to intervene. I
2:16:08 > 2:16:12said, listen, it is inconceivable that Aung San Suu Kyi, the de facto
2:16:12 > 2:16:15leader of Myanmar and the senior chief said the army did not know
2:16:15 > 2:16:18that this was happening because it went on for weeks and it was all
2:16:18 > 2:16:25over the world media. Here's what he said to me.International news media
2:16:25 > 2:16:30was awash with imagery of burning villages, and it was clear that
2:16:30 > 2:16:33atrocities were being committed. Certainly one can make the argument
2:16:33 > 2:16:38that there was time sufficient for a halt to the operations and for
2:16:38 > 2:16:44enquiries to the launched. That did not seem to happen. I'm quite sure
2:16:44 > 2:16:47that there's a future jurisdiction in the court which would these
2:16:47 > 2:16:51questions.
2:16:51 > 2:16:57We approached Aung San Suu Kyi and the chief of the Army and they have
2:16:57 > 2:17:01not replied he had.For a long-time Aung San Suu Kyi has been slated a
2:17:01 > 2:17:07Nobel Peace Prize winner, and yet here she is potentially facing
2:17:07 > 2:17:15genocide?Absolutely. What an extraordinary journey. She was an
2:17:15 > 2:17:19icon of human rights. She was held under house arrest in Myanmar for 15
2:17:19 > 2:17:24years. She won the Nobel Prize. Now her reputation has been completely
2:17:24 > 2:17:29changed. She has got limited power over the army. But what the UN human
2:17:29 > 2:17:32rights chief thinks is she should have at least spoken out, she could
2:17:32 > 2:17:38have spoken out, she didn't. She won't even use the term Rohingya.
2:17:38 > 2:17:42The human -- the UN say that is dehumanising to the extent you
2:17:42 > 2:17:44believe anything is possible. Extraordinary language for a senior
2:17:44 > 2:17:51UN diplomat.You must be so angry when you see this?It does make you
2:17:51 > 2:17:56very angry. When you hear what has happened to people... As a reporter
2:17:56 > 2:17:59you have to remain objective, but it's hard not to feel angry and
2:17:59 > 2:18:04incredibly moved by what you see. I've got to say the other thing is,
2:18:04 > 2:18:09in Bangladesh you a ride of the middle of the monsoon season, they
2:18:09 > 2:18:13have got absolutely nothing, and yet they had the resilience and strength
2:18:13 > 2:18:17to build homes for themselves. The world community wasn't ready for
2:18:17 > 2:18:22them to arrive. The UN, the aid organisations, want there to provide
2:18:22 > 2:18:26food and shelter. They had to do everything for themselves. It was
2:18:26 > 2:18:29quite inspiring to see how strong these people were and their ability
2:18:29 > 2:18:34to look after themselves.At the same time there is a denial that
2:18:34 > 2:18:36what is happening is actually happening.
2:18:36 > 2:18:41Incredibly frustrating. You can see more of what Justin has
2:18:41 > 2:18:50been covering on Panorama tonight. That is at 7:30pm. Thank you.
2:18:50 > 2:18:53We will show you what's happening outside the studio this morning.
2:18:53 > 2:19:01That is missed Mark. -- -- misty-eyed murky.
2:19:04 > 2:19:12If you can see further than a kilometre it is missed. -- mist.
2:19:12 > 2:19:13If you can see further than a kilometre it is missed. -- mist.
2:19:13 > 2:19:19Matt, save us. Good morning. It is definitely filed
2:19:19 > 2:19:26in Salford. Some spots have got fog this morning. It will become more of
2:19:26 > 2:19:30a widespread issue tomorrow, including in London, where it has
2:19:30 > 2:19:34been a lovely morning. A lovely Sunrise. Wherever you are across the
2:19:34 > 2:19:39UK, it is a cold start, with temperatures around freezing. Frost
2:19:39 > 2:19:45on the cards, frost on the grass. A few exceptions. Thicker cloud in the
2:19:45 > 2:19:49south-west. Temperatures dropping. Cloud thickening in the far north of
2:19:49 > 2:19:53Scotland. Patchy rain and drizzle for Orkney, Shetland and the
2:19:53 > 2:19:58Hebrides. Shetland are seeing some of the wettest of the conditions.
2:19:58 > 2:20:04The bulk of the UK will have a dry Monday. The mist and fog will appear
2:20:04 > 2:20:08in the coming hours. Good sunny spells for the majority. Sunny
2:20:08 > 2:20:11spells in Scotland, Northern Ireland and north-west England. On the
2:20:11 > 2:20:18chilly side into the afternoon. Four to 6 degrees. My list conditions in
2:20:18 > 2:20:24the Hebrides, ten, 11 degrees. -- my oldest conditions. The worst of the
2:20:24 > 2:20:34fog tonight. Mainly on the hills. Lots of cloud piling in. That. The
2:20:34 > 2:20:38temperatures from dropping. The risk of frost across many parts into
2:20:38 > 2:20:43Tuesday. Then that issue with fog. If you are heading across the roads
2:20:43 > 2:20:48of the Midlands, East Anglia and the South, and travelling from any of
2:20:48 > 2:20:51the airports, there could be some delays tomorrow because that file
2:20:51 > 2:20:56will be fairly widespread across the area. It will be dancing places.
2:20:56 > 2:21:00Coupled with that you have got the frost. Not everybody will to the
2:21:00 > 2:21:04frost in the South and east. Still some sunny spells. Sunny spells in
2:21:04 > 2:21:12the north-east of England, Northern Ireland, north-west Scotland. Patchy
2:21:12 > 2:21:17light rain and drizzle across some coasts in the West tomorrow. Mostly
2:21:17 > 2:21:24dry. Three to 4 degrees in the South. 14 to 15 across the Moray
2:21:24 > 2:21:31Firth. The mildest conditions will be in Scotland and Northern Ireland.
2:21:31 > 2:21:34Through tomorrow night into Wednesday there will be some rain.
2:21:34 > 2:21:38That moves south into Northern England, parts of Wales for
2:21:38 > 2:21:45Wednesday. Patchy light rain and drizzle. To the north, temperatures
2:21:45 > 2:21:49drop. In the South, a milder day. Some fog issues into the middle of
2:21:49 > 2:21:55next week. Throughout this week a lot of dry weather. England and
2:21:55 > 2:22:03Wales especially. Some breaks in the cloud at night. Some dense fog
2:22:03 > 2:22:04patches. We will keep you
2:22:04 > 2:22:05cloud at night. Some dense fog patches. We will keep you updated.
2:22:05 > 2:22:07Thank you.
2:22:12 > 2:22:18We're going to talk a bit more about cricket. I mention quicker because
2:22:18 > 2:22:23England have lost the Ashes. That just happened in the last hour.
2:22:23 > 2:22:28England have lost the Ashes by an innings and 41 runs. It did not go
2:22:28 > 2:22:33well at any point, really.But we do have some successful cricketers in
2:22:33 > 2:22:39the studio.
2:22:39 > 2:22:41Let's return to last night's Sports Personality award and speak
2:22:41 > 2:22:44to two of England's women cricketers, named Team of the Year
2:22:44 > 2:22:45after winning the World Cup in the summer.
2:22:45 > 2:22:48Anya Shrubsole was also one of the 12 nominees for the main
2:22:48 > 2:22:49Sports Personality award.
2:22:49 > 2:22:52She is the first female cricketer ever to be nominated.
2:22:52 > 2:22:54Anya joins us now, along with her World Cup winning
2:22:54 > 2:22:55team-mate, Danielle Wyatt.
2:22:55 > 2:22:58You are at the awards last night. What sort of night was it?It was an
2:22:58 > 2:23:02amazing night. I was more bothered about winning the team of the year.
2:23:02 > 2:23:07Really pleased to have done that. A good reward for what has been an
2:23:07 > 2:23:16amazing year.What was it like?I was ecstatic. I think I gave Sophie
2:23:16 > 2:23:20Baxter a big hug. Then tried to get over the ramp without tripping on my
2:23:20 > 2:23:27heels.We spoke to another award winner earlier and she said the most
2:23:27 > 2:23:28nerve-racking thing was getting on the stage.
2:23:28 > 2:23:34I spoke to you before the awards last night and you seemed calm and
2:23:34 > 2:23:39relaxed?It is easy to be calm and relaxed when you don't think you are
2:23:39 > 2:23:44going to win. I could just sit there and enjoy the evening.Slightly
2:23:44 > 2:23:49easier than a World Cup final, I guess? Are you say that but we were
2:23:49 > 2:23:58training for that!It was great to be part of it.I spoke to some of
2:23:58 > 2:24:00your team-mates last night. I asked them for their highlights of the
2:24:00 > 2:24:05year. What was the very moment you think that a team of the year award
2:24:05 > 2:24:16was won?Probably Anya at the final in-laws.Just amazing. The whole
2:24:16 > 2:24:23day, to be part of a World Cup final, sold out at Lord's, it was
2:24:23 > 2:24:29just amazing. It was like a huge team effort. People put their hands
2:24:29 > 2:24:32up, performed and got us to the final and over the line.Must be
2:24:32 > 2:24:39very pleasing to know that women's sport is being recognised much more?
2:24:39 > 2:24:44To be nominated as one of the 12, the first female cricketer to be
2:24:44 > 2:24:48nominated, for the team to win, it -- it shows the public has taken
2:24:48 > 2:24:54hold of women's sport and embraced it and is supporting it?Without a
2:24:54 > 2:24:58doubt. Having a female cricketer on the short list shows where women's
2:24:58 > 2:25:02cricket is at and how amazing that tournament was and how much it
2:25:02 > 2:25:05captured the imagination of the British public and people in this
2:25:05 > 2:25:10country. We knew it was big at the time. But this really cements that.
2:25:10 > 2:25:16Have you seen a change since that victory, and not take an interest?
2:25:16 > 2:25:21For sure. We have been getting some fan mail, haven't we, and you? !
2:25:21 > 2:25:27Just things like that people tweeting us Everyday wanting some
2:25:27 > 2:25:35autographs. Yeah, hopefully good things come in the future.It is the
2:25:35 > 2:25:39next generation making sure that coming into a sport is different for
2:25:39 > 2:25:46them. The team that won women's hockey gold in Rio, the difference
2:25:46 > 2:25:49in uptake of young women playing hockey now and influencing young
2:25:49 > 2:25:55boys as well, it has got to be a positive thing, hasn't it?Yeah, it
2:25:55 > 2:25:58is huge. There were some many young people at the final at Lord's, and
2:25:58 > 2:26:02all the way through the tournament. We hope they have gone away and
2:26:02 > 2:26:06really want to play cricket and enjoy playing cricket. Who knows,
2:26:06 > 2:26:11there could have been watching -- someone watching that final who is
2:26:11 > 2:26:14going to play in a World Cup final in ten years. That is what we want
2:26:14 > 2:26:19to do.The injured men have lost the Ashes in the last hour. Sorry. It
2:26:19 > 2:26:25has happened. Things have not gone well for them in Australia. There is
2:26:25 > 2:26:31already talk of big changes before the next two test matches. Changing
2:26:31 > 2:26:34everything halfway through the Ashes series, home shopping would that be?
2:26:34 > 2:26:46How big a deal?-- how shocking. It is disappointing to lose any series.
2:26:46 > 2:26:52They will be obviously disappointed with having lost there. It is a
2:26:52 > 2:26:56notoriously hard place to talk, Australia. They have found this out.
2:26:56 > 2:26:59It is all speculation. You have to wait and see what happens in the
2:26:59 > 2:27:04last couple of tests. They will want to go out and restore some pride and
2:27:04 > 2:27:09get some victories in those last couple of tests.Thank you both.
2:27:09 > 2:27:15Congratulations. You can get some sleep now! Get a good morning's.
2:27:15 > 2:27:16-- chip.
2:27:16 > 2:27:18Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are.

2:33:00 > 2:33:06I think it goes out on the 27th of December. This is him prepping the
2:33:06 > 2:33:08former US president, with an interesting technique...
2:33:08 > 2:33:09Do I have to speak faster?
2:33:09 > 2:33:10Because I'm a slow speaker.
2:33:10 > 2:33:11No, not at all.
2:33:11 > 2:33:12OK.
2:33:12 > 2:33:14Do I need a British accent?
2:33:14 > 2:33:17But if you start using long pauses between the answers...
2:33:17 > 2:33:25You're probably going to get the face.
2:33:25 > 2:33:29Advising one of the best orators in the world on how to speak, that's
2:33:29 > 2:33:30brave!
2:33:30 > 2:33:32That was the warm-up to the encounter.
2:33:32 > 2:33:34The interview, recorded at this year's Invictus Games in Canada,
2:33:34 > 2:33:37will be broadcast for Prince Harry's guest edition of the programme
2:33:37 > 2:33:38on December 27th.
2:33:38 > 2:33:41It is 8:33am.
2:33:41 > 2:33:45And we've got a great half hour to get you in the mood for Christmas
2:33:45 > 2:33:48coming up here on Breakfast.
2:33:48 > 2:33:50Or 45 minutes, we'll call it.
2:33:50 > 2:33:53Author Michael Rosen and illustrator Tony Ross will us about how
2:33:53 > 2:33:54they've adapted Dickens classic A Christmas Carol
2:33:54 > 2:33:57for a whole new audience.

2:34:13 > 2:34:15in the world's biggest ever Christmas show.
2:34:15 > 2:34:16# We're walking in the air
2:34:16 > 2:34:18# We're dancing in the midnight sky
2:34:18 > 2:34:21# And everyone who sees us greets us as we fly #.
2:34:21 > 2:34:23And we'll speak to the former Keane frontman Tom Chaplin
2:34:23 > 2:34:25about the challenge of taking on
2:34:25 > 2:34:27some of the classic Christmas songs for his new album.
2:34:27 > 2:34:30That is a brave song to take on. If you think of Christmas, that is one
2:34:30 > 2:34:33of the songs, you know, the modern generation. You don't touch it, do
2:34:33 > 2:34:37you? But he has, and brought more magic to it. The first thing you
2:34:37 > 2:34:42said when you listened to it this morning, I like it a lot. I do like
2:34:42 > 2:34:47it a lot! It has your seal of approval. I don't think I have ever
2:34:47 > 2:34:53seen so much of Sally on a Monday morning. In a nice way!
2:34:53 > 2:34:57LAUGHTER Well, talking about the sports
2:34:57 > 2:35:00personality of the year, and also Australia winning the Ashes.
2:35:00 > 2:35:01Australia have won the Ashes.
2:35:01 > 2:35:04They've regained the urn from England and they've done it
2:35:04 > 2:35:06in style, winning the first three Tests to give themselves
2:35:06 > 2:35:08an unassailable lead in the five-match series.
2:35:08 > 2:35:10England started the day with six wickets in hand,
2:35:10 > 2:35:11but they lost wickets quickly.
2:35:11 > 2:35:14Dawid Malan was the only one who gave resistance,
2:35:14 > 2:35:16but he fell for 54 - one of Josh Hazlewood's
2:35:16 > 2:35:18five victims.
2:35:18 > 2:35:21Stuart Broad was the ninth wicket to fall.
2:35:21 > 2:35:25He went for a duck to leave England on the brink of defeat.
2:35:25 > 2:35:28And when Chris Woakes lost his wicket, the game was up.
2:35:28 > 2:35:30The Aussies winning by an innings and 41 runs in Perth
2:35:30 > 2:35:36to add to the victories in Brisbane and Adelaide.
2:35:36 > 2:35:40Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers says their 69-game unbeaten domestic
2:35:40 > 2:35:42run may never be surpassed by another team after his side
2:35:42 > 2:35:45were thrashed 4-0 at Hearts.
2:35:45 > 2:35:4716-year-old Harry Cochrane opened the scoring with his first
2:35:47 > 2:35:48senior goal for Hearts.
2:35:48 > 2:35:51Then Kyle Lafferty beat Celtic goalkeeper Craig Gordon to make it
2:35:51 > 2:35:522-0 before half time.
2:35:52 > 2:35:58Two second-half goals completed the stunning victory.
2:35:58 > 2:36:00Manchester United have closed the gap to Premier League leaders
2:36:00 > 2:36:03Manchester City to 11 points, thanks to a 2-1 win at West Brom.
2:36:03 > 2:36:06Romelu Lukaku scored his 15th Manchester United goal to put
2:36:06 > 2:36:07the visitors in front.
2:36:07 > 2:36:09It's now back-to-back strikes for the Belgian,
2:36:09 > 2:36:12who had recently had a barren spell.
2:36:12 > 2:36:15Liverpool moved into the top four by beating Bournemouth 4-0.
2:36:15 > 2:36:18The pick of the goals was the opener from Philippe Coutinho.
2:36:18 > 2:36:19The victory extended Liverpool's unbeaten run
2:36:19 > 2:36:28in all competitions to 12 matches.
2:36:28 > 2:36:33Britain's most successful ever track athlete Mo Farah has been named BBC
2:36:33 > 2:36:46sports personality of the year. You might have seen it last night.
2:36:49 > 2:36:53It is safe to say his winning interview didn't quite go to plan...
2:36:53 > 2:36:56The 2017 BBC Sports Personality of the Year is Mo Farah.
2:36:56 > 2:37:06APPLAUSE
2:37:12 > 2:37:16Mo, I hope you can hear us.
2:37:16 > 2:37:26Rihanna's there with the trophy that she can present.
2:37:27 > 2:37:29Oh, no!
2:37:29 > 2:37:30I think...
2:37:30 > 2:37:33I think that just about sums up Mo's evening, doesn't it, really?
2:37:33 > 2:37:40They needed another 50p in the meter, didn't they? It was a back-up
2:37:40 > 2:37:44generator because the first one had failed and then the back-up went, so
2:37:44 > 2:37:48that happens. Technical issues. The BBC has issued a statement this
2:37:48 > 2:37:51morning saying there were just technical problems, which is what
2:37:51 > 2:37:55happened. But he did an interview? He did. They got it working again,
2:37:55 > 2:37:59so everybody in the auditorium got to hear him say this...
2:37:59 > 2:38:02To win this, I didn't honestly come out tonight thinking,
2:38:02 > 2:38:04yeah, maybe top three, see how it goes, because we've got
2:38:04 > 2:38:10amazing superstars in sports.
2:38:10 > 2:38:11We've got Anthony Joshua, Lewis, Jonnie Peacock,
2:38:11 > 2:38:15we've got all of the boys.
2:38:15 > 2:38:17And it's been amazing.
2:38:17 > 2:38:22When you look at it, comparing yourself with other
2:38:22 > 2:38:24athletes, you think, I could finish in the top three.
2:38:24 > 2:38:27I didn't imagine I was ever going to win this.
2:38:27 > 2:38:29Come so close in 2012, and, you know...
2:38:29 > 2:38:30But I guess anything can happen.
2:38:30 > 2:38:32You just have to dig deep and keep working.
2:38:32 > 2:38:37I just want to thank everybody who has supported me.
2:38:37 > 2:38:39It has been an incredible journey, and it's very exciting.
2:38:39 > 2:38:44I'm looking forward to the marathon.
2:38:44 > 2:38:48Looking forward to the marathon. That is what everyone wanted to
2:38:48 > 2:38:53hear. But we actually found out how the public voted, the BBC releasing
2:38:53 > 2:38:58the figures. This is quite interesting. You can see that Sir Mo
2:38:58 > 2:39:02who was on favourite to win clearly comes out on top with 83,000 votes.
2:39:02 > 2:39:14Jonathan Rea, second, Jonnie Peacock, and you can see Anthony
2:39:14 > 2:39:17Joshua, the favourite, missed out on being in the top three by just 81
2:39:17 > 2:39:31votes. I wonder why it is that they can release the figures for Spoty
2:39:31 > 2:39:36but not for Strictly. I don't know! It is just too much, Dan!
2:39:36 > 2:39:41LAUGHTER Interestingly, when Andy Murray won
2:39:41 > 2:39:48it, you got 250,000 votes. So that was very close. The headlines on the
2:39:48 > 2:39:51night might have included that surprise winner and of course the
2:39:51 > 2:39:55technical difficulties, but there was a lot more to last night than
2:39:55 > 2:39:59just that, as I found out. A warning, this report does contain a
2:39:59 > 2:40:02little flash photography.
2:40:02 > 2:40:04It is the most glamorous night of the sporting year,
2:40:04 > 2:40:06when the trophy winners, the award winners,
2:40:06 > 2:40:08all swap the training track for the red carpet.
2:40:08 > 2:40:16And this.
2:40:16 > 2:40:18As a sportsman, you want to win everything.
2:40:18 > 2:40:20You're angry when you lose.
2:40:20 > 2:40:27But then when you go home and you have got...
2:40:27 > 2:40:29Yeah, my little daughter there now, smiling and giggling away,
2:40:29 > 2:40:30it's hard to stay mad.
2:40:30 > 2:40:32What are you most looking forward to tonight?
2:40:32 > 2:40:34Probably just having a little bit of champagne for once.
2:40:34 > 2:40:36I don't really get to drink.
2:40:36 > 2:40:39I want to share something with you now that has
2:40:39 > 2:40:43never happened before.
2:40:43 > 2:40:45We are allowed inside the make-up room with the presenters,
2:40:45 > 2:40:47as they get ready for Sports Personality.
2:40:47 > 2:40:49Clare, who is the brave soul who has agreed to do
2:40:49 > 2:40:54this, thank you so much.
2:40:54 > 2:40:55You're welcome.
2:40:55 > 2:40:56How are you feeling?
2:40:56 > 2:40:57I feel OK.
2:40:57 > 2:40:59It's a really weird thing with Sports Personality of the Year,
2:40:59 > 2:41:02because I always think I'm fine, and then my tummy goes
2:41:02 > 2:41:04really odd, and all last night it was gurgling,
2:41:04 > 2:41:12and all through the rehearsals today.
2:41:12 > 2:41:15I always think I don't get nervous, but maybe I do.
2:41:15 > 2:41:16Right, lips!
2:41:16 > 2:41:17Usually when I play at awards ceremonies,
2:41:17 > 2:41:20that means I've won something, so I'm intrigued as to what I'm
2:41:20 > 2:41:21going to get tonight.
2:41:21 > 2:41:23The world watched the Manchester derby last week.
2:41:23 > 2:41:26We hear there was a little bit of a scuffle afterwards,
2:41:26 > 2:41:31and there may have been some Oasis songs being played?
2:41:31 > 2:41:34To read that the thing which annoyed Mourinho so much was the players
2:41:34 > 2:41:36celebrating whilst playing Don't Look Back in Anger,
2:41:36 > 2:41:38it kind of made my life.
2:41:38 > 2:41:43It literally won't get any better than that!
2:41:43 > 2:41:51The atmosphere of excitement is building inside the arena.
2:41:51 > 2:41:54It is one minute until we are live on television.
2:41:54 > 2:42:00Time for me to sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.
2:42:00 > 2:42:04In third place is Jonnie Peacock.
2:42:04 > 2:42:11When Kenny Dalglish said that name, it was unreal.
2:42:11 > 2:42:14And to have, by the way, it to be Kenny Dalglish -
2:42:14 > 2:42:16I'm a massive Liverpool fan, my mum is going to be
2:42:16 > 2:42:19ecstatic, just that it's him.
2:42:19 > 2:42:21I want you to do something for me.
2:42:21 > 2:42:23Look down at camera there and give your mum a wave.
2:42:23 > 2:42:26I don't think my mum is going to be up.
2:42:26 > 2:42:27If she is up, big wave.
2:42:27 > 2:42:29I'm really sorry she couldn't be here today,
2:42:29 > 2:42:31she would have loved to be.
2:42:31 > 2:42:32But I know she's...
2:42:32 > 2:42:35I got a text from my sister, just said, "Mum is in tears"!
2:42:35 > 2:42:38When Jonnie Peacock was called out in third, I thought, "Oh, well,
2:42:38 > 2:42:41at least I will get a free drink out of the night, be part
2:42:41 > 2:42:42of the evening."
2:42:42 > 2:42:43And to be second was...
2:42:43 > 2:42:47I didn't know if I should get up, if it was me or not.
2:42:47 > 2:42:48And then my wife pushed me up.
2:42:48 > 2:42:50I thought, yeah, it's me.
2:42:50 > 2:42:51So, yes, extremely proud.
2:42:51 > 2:42:52Jess, congratulations.
2:42:52 > 2:42:53Thank you.
2:42:53 > 2:42:54You were so composed on the stage.
2:42:54 > 2:43:03I was so nervous!
2:43:03 > 2:43:06I had to do that long walk on to the stage, and it's just -
2:43:06 > 2:43:08all the emotions came flooding back.
2:43:08 > 2:43:10You actually can't say too late tonight, can you, because...
2:43:10 > 2:43:14I have my little baby in the hotel, with my mum, so I have to go back
2:43:14 > 2:43:16and make sure she's OK.
2:43:16 > 2:43:17What next, though?
2:43:17 > 2:43:18Obviously I want to stay involved in sport.
2:43:18 > 2:43:21I want encourage3 people to enjoy sport and be active,
2:43:21 > 2:43:22and do different things, so it's exciting.
2:43:22 > 2:43:24Watch this space.
2:43:24 > 2:43:25Yes, definitely.
2:43:25 > 2:43:26Well done, Jess, thank you.
2:43:26 > 2:43:27Thank you.
2:43:27 > 2:43:29In well, what and for it. It certainly was. You enjoyed yourself?
2:43:29 > 2:43:34I did. Her lifetime achievement award, Jess, my favourite moment of
2:43:34 > 2:43:38the night diving. Her speech was brilliant. She was really nervous
2:43:38 > 2:43:42and said she couldn't remember what she was going to say it was just
2:43:42 > 2:43:48brilliant. And well done for not being put off by these two. Well, it
2:43:48 > 2:43:55has been a struggle, I have to say! LAUGHTER
2:43:55 > 2:44:05What a privilege. Thanks very much. We have with us Michael Rosen and
2:44:05 > 2:44:13illustrator Tony Ross. Are you drawing Michael Beer? That is
2:44:13 > 2:44:19Scrooge, and he is Bob Cratchit, who has suddenly acquired the ability to
2:44:19 > 2:44:24draw! We shall unveil your illustration little later on -- are
2:44:24 > 2:44:33you trying Michael there? How are you reworking one of the great
2:44:33 > 2:44:39stories?We have a book called A Christmas Carol and Harry plays the
2:44:39 > 2:44:43part of Scrooge in the school play, but there is a drama going on in his
2:44:43 > 2:44:48real life because as he is acting Scrooge he sees his dad poised over
2:44:48 > 2:44:53his mobile phone, busy, and just as he comes to the first good bit where
2:44:53 > 2:44:59Scrooge is getting all horrible, saying, "Are those workhouses enough
2:44:59 > 2:45:04for them? "He sees his dad leave, not staying to watch, so the drama
2:45:04 > 2:45:09that unfolds is like a replay of the Scrooge story, who doesn't care
2:45:09 > 2:45:13about his family, remember? Until he starts seeing the ghosts of
2:45:13 > 2:45:17Christmas past and all the rest of it, and that is the story that then
2:45:17 > 2:45:21unravels, so two stories side by side, the school play, and the life
2:45:21 > 2:45:26of Harry and his family, and his dad, called Ray, who is like
2:45:26 > 2:45:28Scrooge.Seung Hyun Lee is the one going through the journey?That's
2:45:28 > 2:45:39right. Scrooge and the Scrooge-a-like, the poor by's dad.
2:45:39 > 2:45:43And his sister is disabled, bit like the character in A Christmas Carol.
2:45:43 > 2:45:56Tiny tin and little Eva.Lets look at the drawing... -- Tiny Tim.It's
2:45:56 > 2:46:05not funny.
2:46:05 > 2:46:09That is my letter to the eyelid. He is doing another one, a Pro Bowl.
2:46:09 > 2:46:13.Biz that you get Mburu Botha do not really, I don't like him. Never have
2:46:13 > 2:46:18done.I don't like him.I imagine it makes live quite easy working
2:46:18 > 2:46:23together.Actually, we work hundreds of miles apart. I get a text from
2:46:23 > 2:46:31your publisher.I shuffle it across. Is that the same way you work with
2:46:31 > 2:46:34everyone because we had David Walliams on here a couple of weeks
2:46:34 > 2:46:39ago?The same with him.He writes the story and sends it to you.He
2:46:39 > 2:46:44sends it to his publisher and his publisher then says yes or no,
2:46:44 > 2:46:48usually yes because they go right to the top of the hit straightaway, the
2:46:48 > 2:46:51day they are published so not much argument from the publishers. I get
2:46:51 > 2:46:56all the argument from the publishers!He is so aggrieved! You
2:46:56 > 2:47:02can hear him being aggrieved!I'm quite bitter about the whole thing.
2:47:02 > 2:47:07Many will talk about the importance of your work to build the story
2:47:07 > 2:47:12around the book.He said that?He sat where Michael is sitting and
2:47:12 > 2:47:17said the precise words.I will say the same, he built the pictures
2:47:17 > 2:47:22around the story, does a lot of building.I would be nothing without
2:47:22 > 2:47:27these authors!That is right. I'm not just saying that, he is very
2:47:27 > 2:47:31good, he does character with line, that is what he does, you can see
2:47:31 > 2:47:36the line. There was an era in art where people did stuff with... Like
2:47:36 > 2:47:41that, like the Impressionists, they do it with that but Tony does it
2:47:41 > 2:47:47with line.It's all one given.They only give him a pen, he's only got
2:47:47 > 2:47:51one pen.When I was at art school, they taught me to do edging, do you
2:47:51 > 2:47:56know what that is?It's a bit like getting without the beginning.I
2:47:56 > 2:48:00left expecting to be somebody modest but all I could do with lines.He
2:48:00 > 2:48:07does good lines, I do the lies, he does the lines. Division of labour.
2:48:07 > 2:48:11I was aggrieved.He still is.When you work with Michael, David or any
2:48:11 > 2:48:15of the others, do you have any input into the way you would like the
2:48:15 > 2:48:20character to look or does Tony totally take control?I give him a
2:48:20 > 2:48:23lot of advice and he ignores all of it. I say I would like the character
2:48:23 > 2:48:26to look like this, a page and a half of instructions and he ignores it
2:48:26 > 2:48:32all.You asked what if I ever thought of being a fireman.Did I?
2:48:32 > 2:48:38Helpful advice. Did you take it up? No.You are giving him career
2:48:38 > 2:48:44advice?I was trying to help him on. He was trying to take me from
2:48:44 > 2:48:49illustrating his books.Nobody wants Tony Ross, he's too popular. He does
2:48:49 > 2:48:53Francesca Simon, Read Henry. He's done Shakespeare. Shakespeare was
2:48:53 > 2:48:57very pleased with his work.David Walliams was talking about his great
2:48:57 > 2:49:03literary hero, Roald Dahl, Andy worked with him? What was he like?I
2:49:03 > 2:49:06did, he was strange to work with because whenever I wanted to talk
2:49:06 > 2:49:12about what we were doing at the moment, what book, like Fantastic Mr
2:49:12 > 2:49:16Fox or whatever, he just wanted to talk about the war. He was a fighter
2:49:16 > 2:49:31pilot and he loved aeroplanes. I would say," Mr Dahl -- Mr Dahl.".I
2:49:31 > 2:49:35went into the studio wants and he refused to talk to me altogether,
2:49:35 > 2:49:39and he just talked to my little boy and said, "What is that growing and
2:49:39 > 2:49:46your father 's face?" My son who was about six said, "A beard". He said,
2:49:46 > 2:49:48"Exactly, it's disgusting, it's probably got last night's dinner in
2:49:48 > 2:49:52it and a few odd bicycle wheel. It is disgusting"
2:49:52 > 2:49:54it and a few odd bicycle wheel. It is disgusting".And a supermarket
2:49:54 > 2:49:58trolley.Again, he did not say goodbye when we left he just turned
2:49:58 > 2:50:03my little boy and said, "Remember what I said about your father's
2:50:03 > 2:50:10beard".Did you do the Twits?That was Quentin Blake. I did Fantastic
2:50:10 > 2:50:14Mr Fox but quite a lot of people illustrated Roald Dahl at the start
2:50:14 > 2:50:18and then publishers wrote all of them in under Quentin Blake so he is
2:50:18 > 2:50:26associated with a lot of them.Sir Quentin Blake. He's done some of my
2:50:26 > 2:50:29books, too.I feel it's been enlightening and entertaining
2:50:29 > 2:50:34chatting to you two this morning. That's not funny again, what is he
2:50:34 > 2:50:38doing? Why did he do that?It's marvellous, do you know how lucky
2:50:38 > 2:50:43you are to have someone to draw you. You've made him more rotund than
2:50:43 > 2:50:47Michael.Rotunda is good although I don't think Scrooge is rotund at
2:50:47 > 2:50:53all, bah, humbug! Apra blew that can be altered.This is a quick revamp,
2:50:53 > 2:50:5915 seconds to do it.It was cold within and cold without.He's taking
2:50:59 > 2:51:03about ten stone of you, Michael.Is that better?
2:51:03 > 2:51:04Bah! Humbug!
2:51:04 > 2:51:07by Michael Rosen and illustrated by Tony Ross is out now.
2:51:07 > 2:51:12That is the way Michael sees himself.It is. With a little belly.
2:51:12 > 2:51:19It's been a pleasure. Thank you for joining us. It's been a delight!
2:51:19 > 2:51:22It is cosy and warm in here, feel the Love that out there it is pretty
2:51:22 > 2:51:29murky. We need one of Michael's codes.Cold without!Wrap up warm up
2:51:29 > 2:51:33partly be the advice at least from Matt this morning. How
2:51:33 > 2:51:38partly be the advice at least from Matt this morning. How is it?
2:51:38 > 2:51:43Mystique in Birmingham as well as foggy in Manchester, more mist and
2:51:43 > 2:51:48fog, fog is when you can see less than 1000 metres. But it is only one
2:51:48 > 2:51:52or two with mist and fog this morning, foremost, it is guys like
2:51:52 > 2:51:56this in Fort William, lovely, sunny start today but frosty out there,
2:51:56 > 2:51:59clear skies tonight, widespread frost, the biggest exception with
2:51:59 > 2:52:02the thickest cloud to the north of Scotland, temperatures close to
2:52:02 > 2:52:06double figures as they will be all day. Bit of a breeze, rain and
2:52:06 > 2:52:13drizzle, coming and going, quite damp at times in Shetland Shetland
2:52:13 > 2:52:16but other than that, a few splashes of rain. Most other areas, mist and
2:52:16 > 2:52:18fog clearing, some cloud in Scotland, Northern Ireland and
2:52:18 > 2:52:20north-west England but the vast majority of the UK will start and
2:52:20 > 2:52:25finish the day sunny. Not especially warm, four or five across many
2:52:25 > 2:52:28eastern areas, around ten in the south-west, and in the far
2:52:28 > 2:52:32north-west of the country but as I said, some patchy Wayne Ferreira
2:52:32 > 2:52:36times and that will continue into the night with the breeze keeping
2:52:36 > 2:52:39temperatures up, Hill for developing as cloud begins in western Scotland
2:52:39 > 2:52:42and Northern Ireland and eventually northern England but lots of frost
2:52:42 > 2:52:46across England and Wales and we will see fog developing a bit more widely
2:52:46 > 2:52:52into tomorrow. If you are heading off on a pre-Christmas trip
2:52:52 > 2:52:55tomorrow, for many of the airports, particularly the Midlands, East
2:52:55 > 2:52:59Anglia and the south-east, check with your travel company and BBC
2:52:59 > 2:53:03local radio because there will be some areas of dense fog. Not
2:53:03 > 2:53:06everywhere, there will be gaps are not everyone will see the fog, a
2:53:06 > 2:53:09sunny start. But the fog could linger where it is throughout the
2:53:09 > 2:53:13morning and into the afternoon in a few areas. Staying dry for most of
2:53:13 > 2:53:18England and Wales. A bit more cloud for North East England -- north-west
2:53:18 > 2:53:23England and West Wales. Patchy light rain where it is cloudy but get some
2:53:23 > 2:53:27breaks in the cloud to the east of the Antrim Hills, east of the
2:53:27 > 2:53:30Grampians as well, that south-westerly wind could boost
2:53:30 > 2:53:35temperatures to around 14 or 15, can lead to three or four where the fog
2:53:35 > 2:53:39lingers. Elsewhere, temperatures up a tiny bit of today, and mildest
2:53:39 > 2:53:42across Scotland and Northern Ireland. We will see some rain there
2:53:42 > 2:53:46on Tuesday into Wednesday morning. That eventually clears, the rain
2:53:46 > 2:53:50band edging its way southwards, light and patchy, not everyone will
2:53:50 > 2:53:53see wet weather, dampest on the western side of the Pennines, the
2:53:53 > 2:53:58Cumbrian fells and into North Wales but sunny conditions for Scotland
2:53:58 > 2:54:01and Northern Ireland on Wednesday, fairly great for England and Wales
2:54:01 > 2:54:06with lingering fog patches but temperatures up into double digits
2:54:06 > 2:54:10for just about everyone. As you say, a bit of rain around to finish
2:54:10 > 2:54:13Wednesday but by and large, this week, if you have got any plans, a
2:54:13 > 2:54:18huge amount rain round, dry weather to come but if you are on the move,
2:54:18 > 2:54:22there could be some dense patches for ground at times. I will keep you
2:54:22 > 2:54:26updated tomorrow morning from 6am. Back to you. Have a good day.
2:54:26 > 2:54:30updated tomorrow morning from 6am. Back to you. Have a good day.
2:54:30 > 2:54:35We're going to talk to step before our next guest. Good morning, by the
2:54:35 > 2:54:41way, do like Rock edges at Christmas?Of course.Have you done
2:54:41 > 2:54:45crack a challenge?Eating a cracker inside 30 seconds?Three crackers in
2:54:45 > 2:54:53a minute without any water.Could do it.She is at a cracker factory?
2:54:53 > 2:54:59Jacob's!We didn't mention the brand or morning!Sorry, Merry Christmas!
2:54:59 > 2:55:05This isn't the Chase! Steph is going to do the cracker
2:55:05 > 2:55:11challenge, aren't you? Good morning, some crackers in the
2:55:11 > 2:55:15studio this morning, good morning, I'm at the Jacob's cracker factory
2:55:15 > 2:55:18in Liverpool, you can see where it starts the process, the day being
2:55:18 > 2:55:23squished out of the machine. This is a very busy operation, particularly
2:55:23 > 2:55:27at this time of year because they make something like 1 million
2:55:27 > 2:55:32crackers every single day. At this time of year, they have do take on a
2:55:32 > 2:55:38load of extra staff to get all of the crackers out that people are
2:55:38 > 2:55:42buying. Mandy is one of the factory bosses. Tell us about what is going
2:55:42 > 2:55:49on here. Where does the Daewoo go next?This is the main cream cracker
2:55:49 > 2:55:54line. This plant, you can see the dough extruding out and it goes
2:55:54 > 2:55:57through a series of laminations. We put it through a Rotary mould which
2:55:57 > 2:56:01makes the shape of the biscuit and then onward into the oven. It takes
2:56:01 > 2:56:04about three minutes to go into the oven, comes out the other end and
2:56:04 > 2:56:10then it goes into either the Jacob's cream cracker pack or into biscuits
2:56:10 > 2:56:13for cheese.Tellers about this time of year because you take on extra
2:56:13 > 2:56:18staff to do this.We do, about 600 staff all year round and then we
2:56:18 > 2:56:23employ a further 500 to make the Christmas volume. About a third of
2:56:23 > 2:56:26the volume is in the last four months so it's a very busy time.
2:56:26 > 2:56:32Thankfully nearly at the end!I bet you have a good break and a few
2:56:32 > 2:56:35cheese and crackers at the end.I certainly will.I will let you crack
2:56:35 > 2:56:39on. It's an interesting operation but we're talking about this because
2:56:39 > 2:56:42food at this time of year is big business for the retailers and
2:56:42 > 2:56:48manufacturers. We are expected to spend about £4 billion on food in
2:56:48 > 2:56:53this festive season. I've got a couple of guests with me, Kate, a
2:56:53 > 2:56:57retail expert and Andy from the Co-op. Andy, for you at this time of
2:56:57 > 2:57:01year, what does it mean?At the Co-op, it is one of our busiest
2:57:01 > 2:57:05times of year. We plan, eat, taste, think about Christmas all year
2:57:05 > 2:57:09round. For our stores, colleagues are gearing up for the busiest day
2:57:09 > 2:57:12on Sunday, staying open as late as we can to make sure customers get
2:57:12 > 2:57:23everything they need for Christmas. Always busy, Kate. You and I have
2:57:23 > 2:57:25talked this before. Interesting that this is the first time we have seen
2:57:25 > 2:57:28in a while that food prices have been going up.The customer knows
2:57:28 > 2:57:30that and it's going to get worse, that supermarkets cannot keep
2:57:30 > 2:57:32holding prices back but I still think this Christmas, we might have
2:57:32 > 2:57:35cut back on cards or decorations but I think this is one area where we
2:57:35 > 2:57:38will still have a good Christmas in terms of food.It interesting
2:57:38 > 2:57:42because lots of people are asking if it is a case of buying more. It is
2:57:42 > 2:57:47not that, it is just more expensive. It is more expensive and we know
2:57:47 > 2:57:54about 2000 products have got smaller, we know shrinking is
2:57:54 > 2:57:56happening. We have to buy smarter and sometimes supermarket to let us
2:57:56 > 2:58:01do that.Thank you for joining us. Yes, certainly busy operation here.
2:58:01 > 2:58:05You mentioned the cracker challenge. Mandy, my glamorous assistant, and
2:58:05 > 2:58:10John, one of the factory bosses, is going to help us and my producer,
2:58:10 > 2:58:14Becky, is going to time this. It is how many crackers I can eat in a
2:58:14 > 2:58:19minute?That's right, in a minute, if you read four, you will get the
2:58:19 > 2:58:27record. Six ingredient in there, flour, salt, yeast, soda, water and
2:58:27 > 2:58:37oil. It only takes three minutes to bake one cracker.You're doing well!
2:58:37 > 2:58:40Carry on eating. You start to get the creamy taste and the baked
2:58:40 > 2:58:50aroma. And the texture is nice and crispy. And your mouth becomes...30
2:58:50 > 2:58:53seconds gone.I think that's only two crackers at the moment. On the
2:58:53 > 2:59:01third one? You can't say anything? This is your third one. This time,
2:59:01 > 2:59:10you should be able to start getting your creamy taste coming through.
2:59:10 > 2:59:17Ten, nine, eight, seven, six full of $5 more, three, two, one. White and
2:59:17 > 2:59:24I think we are going to rescue Steph! Oh, no! --I think we're
2:59:24 > 2:59:35going to rescue Steph! That is TV gold. Look at that! LAUGHTER
2:59:35 > 2:59:42Brilliant.She's been saved!Got to try that on Jelle Vossenit shows
2:59:42 > 2:59:47you how tough it is, she had to where a high viz jacket to do it.We
2:59:47 > 2:59:54have got some crackers for you... No, no!Why are you guys here?I
2:59:54 > 2:59:58just came out for a loaf of bread and happened to be passing.Nice of
2:59:58 > 3:00:03you to pop in. How long is the mechanical crocodile in the show?
3:00:03 > 3:00:08Seven metres?It is a 30 foot mechanical crocodile, made in the
3:00:08 > 3:00:14Far East and shipped over. It was custom-made.It is part of what is
3:00:14 > 3:00:18being built and you can directors as I understand we're going to say this
3:00:18 > 3:00:22incorrectly, the world's biggest ever pantomime.That is the
3:00:22 > 3:00:25production company that make it but it is not really a pantomime because
3:00:25 > 3:00:32we have had... It is in an arena, it is so big, we have a 40 foot galley
3:00:32 > 3:00:34that goes around the arena with trapeze artist, stuff you could
3:00:34 > 3:00:40never do in a theatre and the only reason, there's a cost of 120, and
3:00:40 > 3:00:44we would never have got Martin to do a panto. The only reason he is here
3:00:44 > 3:00:49to do the show with us is because it is an arena spectacular.
3:00:54 > 3:01:02So it is spectacular?Exactly. And when I saw the size of it, I didn't
3:01:02 > 3:01:10quite take it in, I felt it would be big, but when I walked in, and I saw
3:01:10 > 3:01:17this galleon, with 50 people on it, it was just bizarre.Peter Pan is a
3:01:17 > 3:01:19very well-known story, I think you'll find.
3:01:19 > 3:01:23LAUGHTER Not everyone would have read it!
3:01:23 > 3:01:32LAUGHTER Who are you playing?I am playing
3:01:32 > 3:01:39Hook, Captain Hook, and Smee. Yes.I don't remember Smee. Yes, I know who
3:01:39 > 3:01:49Captain Hook is! But who is Smee?He is the first mate. Captain Hook's
3:01:49 > 3:01:53first mate. If you have seen Robin Williams, the film, Dustin Hoffman
3:01:53 > 3:01:57and all that, they all have a Smee. It is a popular story.
3:01:57 > 3:02:03LAUGHTER Do you want to walk off and I'll
3:02:03 > 3:02:06just... LAUGHTER
3:02:06 > 3:02:10Everything is flat, sometimes you get a show like that, but imagine
3:02:10 > 3:02:15this, I show on a huge scale, three-dimensional, where it goes
3:02:15 > 3:02:18right out into the arena, and every kid sitting there will be close to
3:02:18 > 3:02:23that show and will be involved. We have water fountains, the whole lot,
3:02:23 > 3:02:30trapeze artists, extraordinary.So you are in Birmingham for a run, a
3:02:30 > 3:02:36break for Christmas, then some poor soul has the move it all down to
3:02:36 > 3:02:44London, the huge crocodile, the giant galleon, everything. yes, down
3:02:44 > 3:02:47the M1 you might see 50 men pulling up
3:02:47 > 3:02:48up galleon! LAUGHTER
3:02:48 > 3:02:54We finish on the24th and then we go to Wembley Arena on the 30th, so
3:02:54 > 3:02:58that is great. I've never played Wembley Arena.How long did it
3:02:58 > 3:03:04together?Reiki! Cinderella was two years ago and it has taken this long
3:03:04 > 3:03:09to get this together, with the investment and everything -- Crikey!
3:03:09 > 3:03:14You say it is not a panto and I understand that, but there was a
3:03:14 > 3:03:17pantomime last week not too far away from here and the jokes, the level
3:03:17 > 3:03:25had gotten too smutty etc, and there's always that line between
3:03:25 > 3:03:28entertaining the parents and the children, but do you believe there
3:03:28 > 3:03:35is a lie not to cross?Absolutely, yes.It has to be universal for the
3:03:35 > 3:03:41families, really -- a line not to cross.You have to promote it like
3:03:41 > 3:03:45that.You don't want the kids sitting there, the adults laughing
3:03:45 > 3:03:49and the kids not laughing and the kids asking what it means. We can't
3:03:49 > 3:03:54sort of buy into that. We have to give it all we can,
3:03:54 > 3:03:58all-encompassing.Innuendos are all part of panto and we all know that,
3:03:58 > 3:04:01that is how it is, but if you are going to push it to a certain level
3:04:01 > 3:04:07you have to let people know. Absolutely.Apart from this, you are
3:04:07 > 3:04:22still keeping busy elsewhere. Spandeau Ballrt? -- Spandeau Ballet.
3:04:22 > 3:04:28Yes, we were trying people out, and I am sure he has already got the
3:04:28 > 3:04:32job, but we are having a lot of fun with it, turning up, plugging in the
3:04:32 > 3:04:46guitars, loud music,and what can you tell us about Dr Who?Cut-off
3:04:46 > 3:04:53filming schedule.You either companion?-- a tough filming
3:04:53 > 3:05:00schedule. Yes, I am a bit like Dr Who's Smee. But great to be part of
3:05:00 > 3:05:05such an iconic show.Pressure, responsibility?I don't feel any at
3:05:05 > 3:05:10all because everyone is so lovely and encouraging and Jodie Whittaker
3:05:10 > 3:05:14who plays the doctor is just doing the most extraordinary job.I'm so
3:05:14 > 3:05:18excited about seeing her.She's brilliant, absolutely brilliant. If
3:05:18 > 3:05:23it doesn't make a global superstar nothing will. Is brilliant. You must

3:05:56 > 3:06:00with the crackers... LAUGHTER

3:06:10 > 3:07:48And it is not a panto!
3:07:48 > 3:07:49Corner for major works.
3:07:49 > 3:07:52They will continue till early January, so expect long delays.
3:07:52 > 3:07:54A quick look at today's weather - some good sunny spells
3:07:54 > 3:07:56but feeling chilly, and turning misty and foggy
3:07:56 > 3:07:59from this evening - a top temperature of 7 Celsius.
3:07:59 > 3:08:01I'll be back at half past one with the lunchtime news -
3:08:01 > 3:08:03hope you can join me then.
3:08:03 > 3:08:04Bye bye.
3:08:04 > 3:08:07Welcome back. Only a week to go until Christmas now. You have all
3:08:07 > 3:08:09yours muddled up. I thought there was an extra week Christmas.
3:08:09 > 3:08:12Everyone was panicking and I thought, it's fine, we have another
3:08:12 > 3:08:17week. No, we haven't! .
3:08:17 > 3:08:19Now with only a week to go until Christmas,
3:08:19 > 3:08:21it's more than likely that you've had a bit of
3:08:21 > 3:08:24a sing a long to some festive tunes by now we certainly have!
3:08:24 > 3:08:27For our next guest they have been the inspiration behind a new album,
3:08:27 > 3:08:29which sees him take on some Christmas favourites
3:08:29 > 3:08:33as well as a few new songs of his own.
3:08:33 > 3:08:38And when you put your head into the Christmas market, you know, so much
3:08:38 > 3:08:42out there already.I started writing the record in the spring, so I have
3:08:42 > 3:08:47been living Christmas for about seven or eight months.Do you know
3:08:47 > 3:08:52what, I think the album is lovely? But I also think you are very brave
3:08:52 > 3:08:59to take on a Christmas classic. This is it. Well, you judge...
3:08:59 > 3:09:03# Suddenly, swooping low
3:09:03 > 3:09:07# On an ocean deep
3:09:07 > 3:09:12# Rising up a mighty monster
3:09:12 > 3:09:16# From his sleep
3:09:16 > 3:09:22# We're walking in the air
3:09:22 > 3:09:23# We're dancing in the midnight sky
3:09:23 > 3:09:27# And everyone who sees us greets us as we fly #.
3:09:27 > 3:09:34Did you decide to cover this?Yes. The thing about that song, I felt it
3:09:34 > 3:09:39was a challenge. Because everyone associates it with, you know, Alan
3:09:39 > 3:09:45Jones, and I think the original version was a young chorister, not
3:09:45 > 3:09:49even Alan Jones, put it that way! But everyone associates it with the
3:09:49 > 3:09:55choirboy and the Snowman, so it is a bit untouchable and you have to be
3:09:55 > 3:10:00careful about taking it on.You can't mess around with it too much?
3:10:00 > 3:10:02Well... LAUGHTER
3:10:02 > 3:10:06It was a challenge, and if you are going to take on a copper,
3:10:06 > 3:10:09particularly a classical make it your own and make a difference.
3:10:09 > 3:10:13Reading some of the things you have said, it is interesting how many
3:10:13 > 3:10:17Christmas songs were not written at Christmas, not just on your album,
3:10:17 > 3:10:23but some of the great Christmas tunes, written on a beach somewhere.
3:10:23 > 3:10:29Yes, Howard Blake who wrote Walking In The Year, he likes my version,
3:10:29 > 3:10:33and we were in his flat in Kensington talking for ages about
3:10:33 > 3:10:36the song, and he said he wrote it sat on a deck chair in Hyde Park in
3:10:36 > 3:10:40June, which is what you have to do in order to write a Christmas song!
3:10:40 > 3:10:47To get it out on time. On a little bit of a sad note, you have
3:10:47 > 3:10:53dedicated it... Well, you look sad already, to your wife's dog.Yes, he
3:10:53 > 3:10:58had a good innings, made it to nearly 17, but he also predated me,
3:10:58 > 3:11:04so he went everywhere with my wife, and they were... Guess. But we had
3:11:04 > 3:11:09him put to sleep sort of during the making of the record and I just
3:11:09 > 3:11:14thought, I'll do it as a little surprise, in memory of Wiggy, then
3:11:14 > 3:11:18when she opens her first copies you will see it, and of course she
3:11:18 > 3:11:25totally lost it.You have also tackled another great Christmas
3:11:25 > 3:11:33June, which I won't ruin if you don't know, but it is an East 17
3:11:33 > 3:11:48beauty. Listen to this... #I don't think I can take the pain
3:11:51 > 3:11:56# Won't you stay another day # Yes, several little Boskin shows
3:11:56 > 3:12:03at the market there, with them, and it was terrifying. I have never done
3:12:03 > 3:12:10that before, very scared -- several little busking shores.When you're
3:12:10 > 3:12:14trying to come up with a new Christmas song, do you think, ten
3:12:14 > 3:12:17years down the line, you're hoping you maybe walk into a shop somewhere
3:12:17 > 3:12:28and they are playing Last Christmas, the Pogues, then one of yours come
3:12:28 > 3:12:34on?You're kind of made for life if one of them makes it, yes, so you're
3:12:34 > 3:12:37hoping that, but there are only format covers so I have kind of
3:12:37 > 3:12:43given myself a good shot at it.What does Christmas mean to you -- four
3:12:43 > 3:12:47covers. I love it.I was filled with magic and wonder for Christmas as a
3:12:47 > 3:12:52kid so trying to do the same thing for my little daughter as well, so,
3:12:52 > 3:12:58yes, I kind of have that sense of magic for it. I think particularly
3:12:58 > 3:13:03the way life is these days, we are so busy. It seems to get more at and
3:13:03 > 3:13:06more crazy and busy with each passing year. It is one of the rare
3:13:06 > 3:13:09times when we are all forced the kind of stop and be with our
3:13:09 > 3:13:15families and friends and people and I think in a world of craziness and
3:13:15 > 3:13:18social media, I think clinging onto these moments is very important.We
3:13:18 > 3:13:30were speaking to Martin
3:13:33 > 3:13:38about Spandau Ballet. What about Keane, gone forever?I don't know. I
3:13:38 > 3:13:40am just enjoying my life and what I'm doing that.
3:13:40 > 3:13:44Tom's album is called 12 Days of Christmas.
3:13:44 > 3:13:45It is very joyful,
