0:00:05 > 0:00:10Hello, this is Breakfast, with Jon Kay and Rachel Burden.

0:00:10 > 0:00:12Back to work but at a higher cost.

0:00:12 > 0:00:17From today, rail passengers face the biggest fare-rise in five years.

0:00:17 > 0:00:20Many season tickets have gone up by more than £100,

0:00:20 > 0:00:22as campaigners warned that people were "being

0:00:22 > 0:00:29priced out of getting to work".

0:00:29 > 0:00:34Good morning from London Bridge Station, where I will speak with the

0:00:34 > 0:00:37boss of Network Rail and passengers about what the increases are going

0:00:37 > 0:00:42to mean for people.

0:00:45 > 0:00:48Good morning.

0:00:48 > 0:00:49It's Tuesday, January 2nd.

0:00:49 > 0:00:52Also this morning: The Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson calls

0:00:52 > 0:00:54for a "meaningful debate" as protests in Iran flare

0:00:54 > 0:00:58for a fifth day.

0:00:58 > 0:01:00Investigations continue into the seaplane crash that killed

0:01:00 > 0:01:07a British businessman and four members of his family.

0:01:07 > 0:01:09Limit children to two low-calorie snacks a day -

0:01:09 > 0:01:12the latest advice to tackle obesity.

0:01:12 > 0:01:16In sport, there is no fairytale ending for one of the most

0:01:16 > 0:01:17successful sportsmen of all time.

0:01:17 > 0:01:20Debutant Rob Cross outplayed Phil "the power" Taylor in his final

0:01:20 > 0:01:26world darts final.

0:01:26 > 0:01:2716-time champion Taylor retiring with a defeat.

0:01:27 > 0:01:32And Matt has the weather.

0:01:32 > 0:01:38Morning.Good morning. Lovely bright and frosty start in northern and

0:01:38 > 0:01:42eastern areas, but wet and windy weather in the west. Even if you

0:01:42 > 0:01:46miss out on the rain today, there is going to be storms on the way

0:01:46 > 0:01:50tonight. I will tell you all about that in the next 15 minutes.Thank

0:01:50 > 0:01:50you.

0:01:50 > 0:01:52Good morning.

0:01:52 > 0:01:53First our main story.

0:01:53 > 0:01:57The biggest increase in rail fares in five years comes into force this

0:01:57 > 0:01:59morning, prompting protests at several stations as many

0:01:59 > 0:02:01commuters return to work after the Christmas break.

0:02:01 > 0:02:03In some cases, travellers will find themselves paying more

0:02:03 > 0:02:05than £100 extra a year.

0:02:05 > 0:02:08Campaigners warn the rise is pricing ordinary people off the railways.

0:02:08 > 0:02:10The government says they're investing more in faster,

0:02:10 > 0:02:11more reliable trains.

0:02:11 > 0:02:16Here's our transport correspondent, Richard Westcott.

0:02:16 > 0:02:25Can I please see your tickets? Another New Year, another fare rise.

0:02:25 > 0:02:30Regulated season tickets go up 3.6% this year. It will add just shy of

0:02:30 > 0:02:35£150 to the price for commuters coming into London on the stripe

0:02:35 > 0:02:40riddled line from Hove in East Sussex. Nearly £110 for a yearly

0:02:40 > 0:02:43ticket to Liverpool to Manchester. And commuters going to Birmingham

0:02:43 > 0:02:49from Gloucester must find £140 more this year. Many now pay between

0:02:49 > 0:02:54£3000 and £5,000 to get to work with the most pricey tickets in the south

0:02:54 > 0:02:58of England. The government says it is spending record amounts on

0:02:58 > 0:03:03improving the network, with more seats provided on newer trains, and

0:03:03 > 0:03:07more reliable electrified lines. But campaigners argue that ordinarily

0:03:07 > 0:03:10people are being priced off our trains with the latest figures

0:03:10 > 0:03:14showing a drop in the number of journeys made using a season ticket.

0:03:14 > 0:03:19I think this fare rise really throws the spotlight on value for money.

0:03:19 > 0:03:22Passengers want to see a reliable train service, a better chance of

0:03:22 > 0:03:26getting a seat and that information during disruption. And train

0:03:26 > 0:03:32companies can take sting out of this by offering direct debit payments

0:03:32 > 0:03:35for annual season tickets and helping the passengers pay for this

0:03:35 > 0:03:38lump sum.They say that fares have been outstripping wages for years

0:03:38 > 0:03:45and they are calling for a price freeze.

0:03:45 > 0:03:52Steph is at London Bridge this morning. Morning. Why is the fare

0:03:52 > 0:03:55rise controversial? Any fare rise is controversial, to be fair.Yes,

0:03:55 > 0:04:00morning. I am here at London Bridge, as you say, this morning. Not many

0:04:00 > 0:04:04here yet. It will be busy shortly. It is controversial because it comes

0:04:04 > 0:04:09at a time when we are still seeing lots of problems on the rail

0:04:09 > 0:04:14network. For example, if you look at punctuality. One in ten trains was

0:04:14 > 0:04:19late in 2016, which is a lot of trains, if you think our many are

0:04:19 > 0:04:24just running from the station every day. It is about punctuality, also

0:04:24 > 0:04:27about overcrowding on trains. People are really miffed that they have to

0:04:27 > 0:04:31pay such an increase for the train fare when, at the same time, they

0:04:31 > 0:04:36are still overcrowded and they are still not running, a lot of them, to

0:04:36 > 0:04:40schedule. So there is that element. The other issue is how they work out

0:04:40 > 0:04:44how to put up the train says. So they use it based on what the

0:04:44 > 0:04:49inflation figure, the retail prices index, was in July last year. Some

0:04:49 > 0:04:53people argue that this is not a good way to work it out because, at the

0:04:53 > 0:04:57same time, we are not seeing wages Co-op as much as inflation is going

0:04:57 > 0:05:02up. And without going to into the mess, there are two met ways of

0:05:02 > 0:05:06working out the inflation, the RPI, which is higher than the other one,

0:05:06 > 0:05:12that is more commonly used to work out how much to pay ten

0:05:12 > 0:05:13that is more commonly used to work out how much to pay benefits. So

0:05:13 > 0:05:17they say it is too much given everything going on with the

0:05:17 > 0:05:20network. Later I will speak with the boss of Network Rail and hopefully I

0:05:20 > 0:05:25can grab some passengers as well. I will be back with you in a bit.

0:05:25 > 0:05:30Thank you very much. Still very quiet.Maybe you and me are the only

0:05:30 > 0:05:32once back at work today.That is a possibility.

0:05:32 > 0:05:35Steph will be talking to the boss of Network Rail at around

0:05:35 > 0:05:366:40am this morning.

0:05:36 > 0:05:39The Foreign Secretary, Boris Johnson, has called

0:05:39 > 0:05:42for a meaningful debate in Iran, where 13 people have been

0:05:42 > 0:05:43killed in protests since Thursday.

0:05:43 > 0:05:45Demonstrators, who are angry about living standards,

0:05:45 > 0:05:48attacked police stations late into the night as they took

0:05:48 > 0:05:50to the streets in a number of cities.

0:05:50 > 0:05:55Jon Donnison reports.

0:05:55 > 0:06:01Iran has not seen anything like this in almost a decade. The country's

0:06:01 > 0:06:09leadership under fire in the biggest protest since 2009. People are angry

0:06:09 > 0:06:12about high unemployment, rising prices and corruption. Police

0:06:12 > 0:06:16stations have been attacked. Authorities say one policeman was

0:06:16 > 0:06:25shot dead on Monday. Three other officers were injured. At least 13

0:06:25 > 0:06:30people have now been killed since the unrest broke out last Thursday.

0:06:30 > 0:06:33The Foreign Secretary, Boris Johnson, called on the Iranian

0:06:33 > 0:06:38authorities to permit debate about what he called "The legitimate and

0:06:38 > 0:06:42important issues raised by protesters". But in recent days of

0:06:42 > 0:06:54the country's collected President Rouhani said they were being

0:06:54 > 0:06:57instigated.The victory against the regime is unbearable for the

0:06:57 > 0:07:02enemies. Success in the region is intolerable for them. They are after

0:07:02 > 0:07:06revenge and they are trying to provoke people.But so far his words

0:07:06 > 0:07:12have done little to stem the protests. There have been large

0:07:12 > 0:07:17counter demonstrations organised in support of the country's leadership.

0:07:17 > 0:07:22But as the protests entered a sixth date, the message from many Iranians

0:07:22 > 0:07:25is they want change.

0:07:25 > 0:07:27Air accident investigators in Australia say it may take months

0:07:27 > 0:07:30before they know why a seaplane carrying a prominent British

0:07:30 > 0:07:32businessman and his family crashed on New Year's Eve.

0:07:32 > 0:07:35Richard Cousins - who ran a multi-billion pound catering

0:07:35 > 0:07:37company - was killed along with his two sons,

0:07:37 > 0:07:39his fiancee, her daughter and the pilot.

0:07:39 > 0:07:42Investigators say it could take several days to recover the wreckage

0:07:42 > 0:07:55of the plane, which is submerged under 40 feet of water.

0:07:55 > 0:08:02And we will get the latest on that investigation from our correspondent

0:08:02 > 0:08:05Phil Mercer in Australia in around 15 minutes.

0:08:05 > 0:08:08More than 300 women from Hollywood's entertainment industry have launched

0:08:08 > 0:08:12an initiative to tackle sexual harassment in workplaces.

0:08:12 > 0:08:15The campaign called Time's Up includes includes Hollywood stars

0:08:15 > 0:08:17such as Meryl Streep and Jennifer Lawrence.

0:08:17 > 0:08:20It will provide legal support for women and men who suffer abuse.

0:08:20 > 0:08:26Ever since the Weinstein, Harvey Weinstein, story broke in October,

0:08:26 > 0:08:33there are hoping dozens and dozens of actresses, talent agents,

0:08:33 > 0:08:36lawyers, CEOs in Hollywood meeting every single week to save, what can

0:08:36 > 0:08:40we do to make sure this change is lasting, and what kind of

0:08:40 > 0:08:48initiatives can we put in place to make sure that things change?

0:08:48 > 0:08:5480 people were stabbed to death in London last year, a rise of a third

0:08:54 > 0:08:55to 2016.

0:08:55 > 0:08:56The Metropolitan Police are investigating the murders

0:08:56 > 0:08:59of four young men in London who were stabbed to death

0:08:59 > 0:09:01in a 24-hour period over New Year.

0:09:01 > 0:09:03Police say the deaths are unrelated.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05The youngest victim was 17 years old.

0:09:05 > 0:09:07So far detectives have arrested six people in connection

0:09:07 > 0:09:08with their inquiries.

0:09:08 > 0:09:11Parents are being urged to give their children just two

0:09:11 > 0:09:13low-calorie snacks a day, to help safeguard their health.

0:09:13 > 0:09:16Public Health England says the snacks should be no more

0:09:16 > 0:09:17than 100 calories each.

0:09:17 > 0:09:20The advice is being given after it's emerged primary school children

0:09:20 > 0:09:23are consuming three times more sugar than the recommended limit,

0:09:23 > 0:09:26as our health correspondent, James Gallagher, reports.

0:09:26 > 0:09:30Half the sugar us kids eat and drink each year comes from sugary

0:09:30 > 0:09:34snacks and drinks.

0:09:34 > 0:09:37Kids get through a mountain of sugary snacks each year.

0:09:37 > 0:09:44Cake, ice cream, pop, juice, biscuits, sweets, and chocolate.

0:09:44 > 0:09:48Children eat three times more sugar than official advice,

0:09:48 > 0:09:51just over half of it comes from snacking between meals.

0:09:51 > 0:09:55It is one reason more than a quarter of children have rotten teeth

0:09:55 > 0:09:56by the time they turn five.

0:09:56 > 0:09:59This Public Health England campaign is warning that snacking has got out

0:09:59 > 0:10:02of hand and is increasing the chance of type 2 diabetes,

0:10:02 > 0:10:04heart disease and cancer.

0:10:04 > 0:10:06We are very concerned about snacking.

0:10:06 > 0:10:11Our children have unhealthy diets, they are eating too many calories.

0:10:11 > 0:10:14They're eating too much sugar and snacking is part of the problem.

0:10:14 > 0:10:18We are encouraging parents to be aware of snacking and try to cut

0:10:18 > 0:10:21back and replace unhealthy snacks with better snack.

0:10:21 > 0:10:32So how do parents feel about snacking?

0:10:32 > 0:10:37I know that kids like sweets, and all of the sugar and stuff that

0:10:37 > 0:10:39you get from shops in McDonald's and things like that,

0:10:39 > 0:10:43but it is for the parents to keep an eye on them and their intake.

0:10:43 > 0:10:46Public Health England is advising snacks are limited to just 100

0:10:46 > 0:10:49calories and eaten no more than twice a day.

0:10:49 > 0:10:52It says fruit and veg are ideal, and crumpets are better

0:10:52 > 0:10:59than anything you will find in the confectionery aisles.

0:10:59 > 0:11:02More than 11,000 homes across the UK have been empty for more

0:11:02 > 0:11:05than a decade, according to research carried out by the Liberal

0:11:05 > 0:11:05Democrats.

0:11:05 > 0:11:09Their findings also show very few councils in England and Wales have

0:11:09 > 0:11:12made use of powers that allow local authorities to take over properties

0:11:12 > 0:11:14that have been empty for more than six months.

0:11:14 > 0:11:18But the Government says the number of empty homes has fallen by a third

0:11:18 > 0:11:23since 2010 and is now at its lowest level since records began.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26Millions of people are at risk of falling into debt this month

0:11:26 > 0:11:28as a result of Christmas spending.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31Research carried out by the Money Advice Trust suggests

0:11:31 > 0:11:36one in six people across Britain will fall behind on payments

0:11:36 > 0:11:38this month, with many saying they failed

0:11:38 > 0:11:40to budget properly for extra spending at Christmas.

0:11:40 > 0:11:44While many of us may have spent New Year's Day sleeping off a late

0:11:44 > 0:11:47night of partying, others started 2018 with an icy cold plunge.

0:11:47 > 0:11:50Hundreds of people in the American state of Minnesota shrugged off

0:11:50 > 0:11:53temperatures of -15 Celsius to jump into a frozen lake to raise

0:11:53 > 0:11:54money for veterans.

0:11:54 > 0:11:57But here's the silver lining, it's warmer in the water

0:11:57 > 0:12:04than it is on the ice.

0:12:04 > 0:12:08So going in isn't the hard part, it's getting out!

0:12:08 > 0:12:15He is loving it, that guy.Once you are in the water, you are OK.She

0:12:15 > 0:12:20looked like she was happy to get out. -38 with the windchill factor

0:12:20 > 0:12:26in the open air, but just, just -15 in the water!Something else that

0:12:26 > 0:12:33has gone out, Power, yet it? The power cut. Yes.

0:12:33 > 0:12:37The 'Power' is finally out.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40Phil "the Power" Taylor has retired from darts in defeat,

0:12:40 > 0:12:43after being beaten by debutant Rob Cross in the World Championship

0:12:43 > 0:12:43final.

0:12:43 > 0:12:46Cross, who watched the tournament on tv last year, outplayed

0:12:46 > 0:12:47the 16-time champion to win by 7-2.

0:12:47 > 0:12:50Taylor is one of Britain's most successful sportsmen of all time

0:12:50 > 0:12:52with over 200 titles to his name.

0:12:52 > 0:12:56Manchester United get their first win in four matches with a 2-0

0:12:56 > 0:12:57victory over Everton at Goodison Park.

0:12:57 > 0:12:59Anthony Martial and Jesse Lingaard with the goals.

0:12:59 > 0:13:03Brighton twice took the lead but could only manage a 2-2 draw

0:13:03 > 0:13:04against struggling Bournemouth.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06In the other Premier League matches, there were wins for Liverpool,

0:13:06 > 0:13:08Leicester and Newcastle.

0:13:08 > 0:13:19Britain's Johanna Konta is in action again this morning

0:13:19 > 0:13:22against Ajla Tomljanovic in the second round of the Brisbane

0:13:22 > 0:13:22International.

0:13:22 > 0:13:25The British number one beat US Open final Madison Keys

0:13:25 > 0:13:26in three sets yesterday.

0:13:26 > 0:13:30She is delighted to be back.Phil Taylor was having the chance to hold

0:13:30 > 0:13:34the trophy even though he didn't win.There has been a little bit of

0:13:34 > 0:13:37chat on social media about his behaviour in the match last night.

0:13:37 > 0:13:43He was a little distracting. That is one word you could use.A little bit

0:13:43 > 0:13:46of gamesmanship.Playing to the crowd a little bit. He didn't make

0:13:46 > 0:13:52himself popular with the crowd last night. It didn't work for him, no.I

0:13:52 > 0:13:58still think he will come back.Yes, me too.He will miss it. He has been

0:13:58 > 0:14:04around for so long.Exactly. We will do the papers in a minute. The mood

0:14:04 > 0:14:08this morning was so bright, I thought someone had left the lights

0:14:08 > 0:14:08on outside.

0:14:08 > 0:14:09thought someone had left the lights on outside. It was absolutely

0:14:09 > 0:14:15fabulous.It was a super moon, in fact, the closest it gets for the

0:14:15 > 0:14:19whole year, one of two full moons across the skies above us this

0:14:19 > 0:14:29month. This month's is called a Wolf Moon as well. Good morning. It is

0:14:29 > 0:14:33not a great week as far as rainfall is concerned, it is quite wet and

0:14:33 > 0:14:38windy across southern parts of the UK, as I will show you. This area of

0:14:38 > 0:14:42cloud will bring stormy weather tonight but already there is this

0:14:42 > 0:14:46mass of cloud from low pressure is building in producing rain across

0:14:46 > 0:14:50Ireland quite extensively, spots into the west in the next hour, but

0:14:50 > 0:14:54many parts of mainland UK are dry to begin with on the Tuesday morning

0:14:54 > 0:14:57commute, frosty in north-east Scotland and in fact this is where

0:14:57 > 0:15:02we will see the best weather this week. Already by 8am we could see

0:15:02 > 0:15:05rain splashing into Dumfries and Galloway, or wet to commute in the

0:15:05 > 0:15:09morning on Northern Ireland, lots of eastern England should be dry with a

0:15:09 > 0:15:13clear skies, if you want to see the moon over the short-term in eastern

0:15:13 > 0:15:16coastal counties but cloud increasing elsewhere and over the

0:15:16 > 0:15:20south-west the rate is not heavy but it will be down this morning with

0:15:20 > 0:15:27heavy bursts from mid Wales northwards and notice how the rain

0:15:27 > 0:15:31spells across most parts of the UK, tending to snow on the tops of the

0:15:31 > 0:15:34Pennines and the Scottish hills as well, never quite reaching the

0:15:34 > 0:15:37north-east, but after a wet morning, the afternoon should be bright

0:15:37 > 0:15:39perform rain arrives into Wales later. Temperatures not far where

0:15:39 > 0:15:44they should be for the time of year in the northern half of the country.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47Reasonably mild in the south. There will be sunshine and falling rain

0:15:47 > 0:15:50later on. And then into tonight Storm Allen Ault will come in and

0:15:50 > 0:15:57that will bring some strong wind, not as strong as storm Dylan --

0:15:57 > 0:16:03Ellen. We have rain coming in, turning to snow over the hills. 70

0:16:03 > 0:16:07mph expected over the first half of the night in Northern Ireland, which

0:16:07 > 0:16:10could cause damage and disruption and then for the second half of the

0:16:10 > 0:16:18night may be 70- 80 mph gusts and quite widely across southern

0:16:18 > 0:16:21Scotland and north Wales as well as we finished the night. The strongest

0:16:21 > 0:16:26of the wind tomorrow will ease off reasonably quickly. Still quite a

0:16:26 > 0:16:30blustery day, a day of sunshine and showers across the country on

0:16:30 > 0:16:33Wednesday. Some of the showers heavy and thundery. Some of the dry

0:16:33 > 0:16:36conditions across the north-east of Scotland. And temperatures not 1

0:16:36 > 0:16:40million miles off what we will see to date though it will be cooler

0:16:40 > 0:16:43than the south. And then through Wednesday night into Thursday

0:16:43 > 0:16:46another spell of wet and windy weather set to push its way in,

0:16:46 > 0:16:49another area of low pressure, southern areas again bear the brunt

0:16:49 > 0:16:53of that whereas further north clear skies, frosty start to first aid for

0:16:53 > 0:17:02some of you -- Thursday. No view. And I promise a quick picture of the

0:17:02 > 0:17:07lovely moon, Rachel, here it is taken in eastern Biton share last

0:17:07 > 0:17:15night. It is the Wolf Moon.Yeah, I know, it is fabulous. It was so

0:17:15 > 0:17:21bright and clear. It was nice to start the New Year.It is the second

0:17:21 > 0:17:25of January, in case you're worrying.

0:17:25 > 0:17:27You are watching Breakfast from BBC News.

0:17:27 > 0:17:30The main stories this morning: Passenger groups are staging

0:17:30 > 0:17:32protests against the biggest increase in rail fares

0:17:32 > 0:17:34for five years.

0:17:34 > 0:17:37No more than two low-calorie snacks a day - the latest advice to parents

0:17:37 > 0:17:49in an attempt to tackle childhood obesity.

0:17:49 > 0:17:52The Daily Telegraph are leading with the story we mentioned about rail

0:17:52 > 0:17:57fares going up. This announcement was made last year about prices

0:17:57 > 0:18:01going up, and it comes into effect from today. They call it a scandal

0:18:01 > 0:18:05of rip-off rail fares and they say the government are asking officials

0:18:05 > 0:18:09to look at whether there is a way to make sure future increases are not

0:18:09 > 0:18:13quite so steep, maybe linking them to a different type of inflation

0:18:13 > 0:18:17which would mean at the moment at least that there might be slightly

0:18:17 > 0:18:21less of an impact for commuters. That story about parents being

0:18:21 > 0:18:25advised to give their children know more than two low-calorie snacks a

0:18:25 > 0:18:30day makes the front page the Mirror and the Son, stop your kids from

0:18:30 > 0:18:36eating crisps is how they put it. -- Sun. We will have an expert on

0:18:36 > 0:18:40Labour to ask about what is meant by low calorie snack but it is

0:18:40 > 0:18:44something like 200 calories across the two snacks in a day. For many of

0:18:44 > 0:18:48us that is fairly meaningless. I don't know what constitutes 200

0:18:48 > 0:18:53calories.And there are different ways of measuring it. The Sun are

0:18:53 > 0:18:59calling it Mars balmy, that children will not be able to have a chocolate

0:18:59 > 0:19:06bar under this new advice. They also have a picture of a man above who

0:19:06 > 0:19:10looks like he has never touched or seen a Mars bar in his life. I was

0:19:10 > 0:19:16asked to model for that but I was really busy over new Year.You want

0:19:16 > 0:19:20to see what is underneath, believe me!I am glad the picture stopped.

0:19:20 > 0:19:25Front page of the Times has pictures of that terrible fire in Liverpool

0:19:25 > 0:19:30over the last couple of days. The lead story is the cost to the NHS of

0:19:30 > 0:19:35patients missing their appointments. £1 billion a year is what they are

0:19:35 > 0:19:39saying time wasting patients are costing the health service at the

0:19:39 > 0:19:44moment. Obviously health chiefs are urging people to think a little bit

0:19:44 > 0:19:47more about that if they have appointments, the actual financial

0:19:47 > 0:19:52implications.The Daily Mail's front page is the story of the tragedy

0:19:52 > 0:19:56which hit that family in Australia, the fiancee and her daughter, and we

0:19:56 > 0:20:01know as well that her husband to be and his two sons from a previous

0:20:01 > 0:20:05marriage died, and they lead with the story of out fire crews being

0:20:05 > 0:20:08sent to deal with medical emergencies when paramedics can't

0:20:08 > 0:20:13get there in time. Sally is here as well. What is happening in sport?A

0:20:13 > 0:20:17great interview today, a fabulous interviewer for the Guardian,

0:20:17 > 0:20:23talking to Elise Christie about the Winter Olympics and a difficult time

0:20:23 > 0:20:30she had after Sochi. She was disqualified and actually received

0:20:30 > 0:20:33death threats from Koreans who suggested she had actually knocked

0:20:33 > 0:20:38out one of the ours, who was a favourite for a medal. She was

0:20:38 > 0:20:42terrified, basically, because of all the hate mail she received. She

0:20:42 > 0:20:47really has turned things around.She has had a brilliant year, hasn't

0:20:47 > 0:20:52she?She has had a brilliant year, and she faced her fear and went to

0:20:52 > 0:20:56South Korea to train. It is one of the best things he could possibly

0:20:56 > 0:21:00have done, as she says, I wasn't myself, I felt like a hideous human

0:21:00 > 0:21:04being, I felt so bad. But she has managed to turn things around and

0:21:04 > 0:21:09has won the World Championships this year. She is so aggressively

0:21:09 > 0:21:14competitive in an unapologetic way, which you have to be in that sport.

0:21:14 > 0:21:19And before I go I want to share this with you, from the front page of the

0:21:19 > 0:21:24Daily Telegraph's sports section. Mourinho just provides great value

0:21:24 > 0:21:28Stuffer us to talk about. He suggests TV pundits are jealous of

0:21:28 > 0:21:34Paul Pogba. Paul Scholes, and he also says, Manchester United, great

0:21:34 > 0:21:39and one of the legends of the game, is jealous of Paul Pogba because he

0:21:39 > 0:21:44earns so much cash. That is why he criticises him in his punditry.

0:21:44 > 0:21:49Someone else who is always ruthlessly aggressive, and you have

0:21:49 > 0:21:54a dog, haven't you? Dog lovers will like this piece in the Guardian

0:21:54 > 0:21:58about this extraordinary invention. When you put your dog to bag in the

0:21:58 > 0:22:02bin, you leave it there to be taken away. This is using them ethane

0:22:02 > 0:22:07which emerges from the dog to to create energy, to create lights, and

0:22:07 > 0:22:10street lighting at a time when street lighting is being cut in many

0:22:10 > 0:22:23areas. -- using the methane.So you deposit it in the bag, and the

0:22:23 > 0:22:33methane rises, and the light lights the street all night long.So if you

0:22:33 > 0:22:37see a particularly bright light, you might want to cross the road.We

0:22:37 > 0:22:48started and ended with power!

0:22:48 > 0:22:52Let's look at a story which has dominated the headlines over the new

0:22:52 > 0:22:52year weekend.

0:22:52 > 0:22:56Tributes have been paid to a British family who died when a seaplane

0:22:56 > 0:22:58they were in crashed into a river near Sydney.

0:22:58 > 0:23:00Businessman Richard Cousins, his two sons, his fiancee,

0:23:00 > 0:23:03Emma Bowen, and her daughter died along with the plane's pilot

0:23:03 > 0:23:04on New Year's Eve.

0:23:04 > 0:23:08Mr Cousins's brother-in-law spoke to the BBC about the shock he felt

0:23:08 > 0:23:09hearing the news.

0:23:09 > 0:23:14Losing both my godson and his sibling and my brother-in-law as

0:23:14 > 0:23:20well has left a huge hole. It is very, very difficult to deal with

0:23:20 > 0:23:24death, and it's going to take me a long while to get over this. It's a

0:23:24 > 0:23:28huge shock. They had a lot of friends. They were very, very

0:23:28 > 0:23:32popular lads. And that's because they have had a fantastic up

0:23:32 > 0:23:38ringing, from both my sister and Richard. They knew right from wrong,

0:23:38 > 0:23:43they worked hard. They were both on a successful path. I feel proud to

0:23:43 > 0:23:47have known them. I am proud to have known Richard as well. It's very,

0:23:47 > 0:23:54very sad. And they will be... They will not be forgotten. They will not

0:23:54 > 0:23:56be forgotten.

0:23:56 > 0:23:58Meanwhile, air accident investigators in Australia say it

0:23:58 > 0:24:01could be months before they find out why the plane crashed.

0:24:01 > 0:24:03Our correspondent Phil Mercer is in Sydney.

0:24:03 > 0:24:09Phil, what will investigators have to consider?

0:24:09 > 0:24:14How unusual is it for an incident involving a seaplane like this to

0:24:14 > 0:24:19happen?Well, we have been speaking to aviation experts today and they

0:24:19 > 0:24:24say this type of crash is extremely unusual. In the last hour or two we

0:24:24 > 0:24:29have heard from the Australian air crash team saying that its work is

0:24:29 > 0:24:33meticulous and furrow. The wreckage of the seaplane remains at the

0:24:33 > 0:24:39bottom of the Hawkesbury River, 30 feet down -- thorough. It has been

0:24:39 > 0:24:44examined by police divers in the last couple of days to examine what

0:24:44 > 0:24:48kind of shape it is in because the air crash team want to raise the

0:24:48 > 0:24:53wreckage by the end of the week and they are hoping to bring it up in as

0:24:53 > 0:24:57good a shape as possible. Because, of course, the plane will be a

0:24:57 > 0:25:00fundamental clue in trying to establish how and why this crash

0:25:00 > 0:25:04occurred. So the aircraft's components will be examined, along

0:25:04 > 0:25:08with the pilot's background and witnesses as well, and mobile phone

0:25:08 > 0:25:13footage from witnesses could also be extremely important.What were

0:25:13 > 0:25:17conditions like at the time?Pretty good, according to some

0:25:17 > 0:25:22eyewitnesses. And that aviation expert we were talking to set that

0:25:22 > 0:25:26it was almost certain in his opinion that the plane had stalled. He

0:25:26 > 0:25:31didn't know clearly will why it stalled, it may have been an

0:25:31 > 0:25:35unexpected gust of wind or an engine failure, or it could have been a

0:25:35 > 0:25:39mistake on behalf of the pilot. But remember, the pilot was extremely

0:25:39 > 0:25:43experienced. He had had more than 9000 hours flying the sorts of

0:25:43 > 0:25:48aircraft. So all of these things will be considered at a time, of

0:25:48 > 0:25:52course, that is, when we are hearing all these tributes to the British

0:25:52 > 0:25:57family who died in this crash on New Year's Eve, and tributes also to the

0:25:57 > 0:26:01Canadian pilot who was killed as well.Thank you very much.

0:26:01 > 0:26:05We will be speaking more to Ian Thorpe, the uncle of Edward

0:26:05 > 0:26:11and William Cousins, just after 8:00am this morning.

0:26:11 > 0:29:33Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are.

0:29:33 > 0:29:34in half an hour.

0:29:34 > 0:29:37Plenty more on our website at the usual address.

0:29:37 > 0:29:39Now, though, it is back to John and Rachel.

0:29:39 > 0:29:41Bye for now.

0:29:41 > 0:29:43Hello, this is Breakfast with Jon Kay and Rachel Burden.

0:29:43 > 0:29:46We'll bring you all the latest news and sport in a moment,

0:29:46 > 0:29:50but also on Breakfast this morning: It was an idyllic holiday that

0:29:50 > 0:29:54ended in tragedy.

0:29:54 > 0:29:56We'll speak to the brother-in-law of the British businessman

0:29:56 > 0:29:59who was killed, along with the rest of his family,

0:29:59 > 0:30:08in a seaplane crash on New Year's Eve.

0:30:08 > 0:30:12Also this morning, this picture of Dawn Nisbet finishing a Parkrun -

0:30:12 > 0:30:14she came last, and ten minutes behind everyone else -

0:30:14 > 0:30:16became a social media sensation.

0:30:16 > 0:30:19She'll tell us why it's inspired her to sign up

0:30:19 > 0:30:23for her first half-marathon.

0:30:23 > 0:30:25She will tell us about her plans.

0:30:25 > 0:30:28And, after nine, they've had millions gripped with some of soaps'

0:30:28 > 0:30:29biggest storylines, now actors Christopher Harper

0:30:29 > 0:30:36and John Middleton are swapping the screen for the stage.

0:30:36 > 0:30:38And they are doing it together.

0:30:38 > 0:30:38Good morning.

0:30:38 > 0:30:41Here's a summary of today's main stories from BBC News.

0:30:41 > 0:30:45The biggest increase in rail fares in five years comes into force this

0:30:45 > 0:30:47morning, prompting protests at several stations as many

0:30:47 > 0:30:50commuters return to work after the Christmas break.

0:30:50 > 0:30:53In some cases, travellers will find themselves paying more than £100

0:30:53 > 0:30:53extra a year.

0:30:53 > 0:30:56The government says they're investing more in faster,

0:30:56 > 0:30:58more reliable trains.

0:30:58 > 0:31:07Campaigners warn the rise is pricing ordinary people off the railways.

0:31:07 > 0:31:11I think this affair rise really throws the spotlight on value for

0:31:11 > 0:31:15money. Passengers want to see a more reliable train surfers, they want to

0:31:15 > 0:31:18see a better chance of getting a seat and better information during

0:31:18 > 0:31:22disruption and the train companies can help to take the sting out of

0:31:22 > 0:31:25this by offering direct debit payments for annual season tickets

0:31:25 > 0:31:28and help passengers pay for this big lump sum.

0:31:28 > 0:31:29and help passengers pay for this big lump sum.

0:31:29 > 0:31:31The Foreign Secretary, Boris Johnson, has called

0:31:31 > 0:31:34for a meaningful debate in Iran, where 13 people have been

0:31:34 > 0:31:36killed in protests since Thursday.

0:31:36 > 0:31:38Demonstrators, who are angry about living standards,

0:31:38 > 0:31:40attacked police stations late into the night as they took

0:31:40 > 0:31:42to the streets in a number of cities.

0:31:42 > 0:31:45President Hassan Rouhani call the protests an opportunity,

0:31:45 > 0:31:47not a threat but vowed to crack down on lawbreakers.

0:31:47 > 0:31:48More than 300 women from Hollywood's entertainment industry have launched

0:31:53 > 0:31:56Air accident investigators in Australia say it may take months

0:31:56 > 0:31:58before they know why a seaplane carrying a prominent British

0:31:58 > 0:32:01businessman and his family crashed on New Year's Eve.

0:32:01 > 0:32:03Richard Cousins, who ran a multi-billion pound catering

0:32:03 > 0:32:05company, was killed along with his two sons,

0:32:05 > 0:32:11his fiancee, her daughter and the pilot.

0:32:11 > 0:32:13Aviation experts believe the planed stalled before crashing

0:32:13 > 0:32:13into the river.

0:32:13 > 0:32:16More than 300 women from Hollywood's entertainment industry have launched

0:32:16 > 0:32:18an initiative to tackle sexual harassment in workplaces.

0:32:18 > 0:32:21The campaign called Time's Up includes includes Hollywood stars

0:32:21 > 0:32:23such as Meryl Streep and Jennifer Lawrence.

0:32:23 > 0:32:30It will provide legal support for women and men who suffer abuse.

0:32:30 > 0:32:38Ever since the Weinstein, Harvey Weinstein, story broke

0:32:38 > 0:32:44in October, there have been dozens and dozens

0:32:44 > 0:32:46of actresses, talent agents, lawyers, CEOs within Hollywood

0:32:46 > 0:32:50meeting every single week to say, what can we do to make sure this

0:32:50 > 0:32:54change is lasting, and what kind of initiatives can we put in place

0:32:54 > 0:32:56to make sure that things change?

0:32:56 > 0:32:59Parents are being urged to give their children no more

0:32:59 > 0:33:03than two sugary snacks a day, to help safeguard their health.

0:33:03 > 0:33:05Public Health England says the snacks should not exceed

0:33:05 > 0:33:06100 calories each.

0:33:06 > 0:33:09The advice is being given after it's emerged primary school children

0:33:09 > 0:33:16are consuming three times more sugar than the recommended limit.

0:33:16 > 0:33:20And we will be speaking with Public Health England about their new

0:33:20 > 0:33:23advice in about five minutes' time.

0:33:23 > 0:33:2780 people were stabbed to death in London last year, a rise of a third

0:33:27 > 0:33:32compared to 2016. The figures come as police investigate the murders of

0:33:32 > 0:33:36four young man in the capital who were stabbed in unrelated incidents

0:33:36 > 0:33:40over a 24-hour period. The youngest victim was 17 years old. So far

0:33:40 > 0:33:44detectives have arrested six people in connection with their enquiries.

0:33:44 > 0:33:47An investigation's under way into the cause of a fire

0:33:47 > 0:33:50which destroyed up to 1400 vehicles in a car park in Liverpool.

0:33:50 > 0:33:53The blaze at King's Dock, next to Liverpool's Echo Arena,

0:33:53 > 0:33:56is said to have spread after one vehicle caught fire on New Year's

0:33:56 > 0:33:57Eve.

0:33:57 > 0:33:59Firefighters worked through the night and many people

0:33:59 > 0:34:01were forced into temporary accommodation as nearby

0:34:01 > 0:34:01buildings were evacuated.

0:34:01 > 0:34:10No-one was injured.

0:34:10 > 0:34:14None of the horses competing at an event nearby were injured.

0:34:14 > 0:34:17More than 11,000 homes across the UK have been empty for more

0:34:17 > 0:34:20than a decade, according to research carried out by the Liberal

0:34:20 > 0:34:20Democrats.

0:34:20 > 0:34:24Their findings also show very few councils in England and Wales have

0:34:24 > 0:34:27made use of powers that allow local authorities to take over properties

0:34:27 > 0:34:29that have been empty for more than six months.

0:34:29 > 0:34:33But the Government says the number of empty homes has fallen by a third

0:34:33 > 0:34:36since 2010 and is now at its lowest level since records began.

0:34:36 > 0:34:40Millions of people are at risk of falling into debt this month

0:34:40 > 0:34:41as a result of Christmas spending.

0:34:41 > 0:34:44Research carried out by the Money Advice Trust suggests

0:34:44 > 0:34:47one in six people across Britain will fall behind on payments this

0:34:47 > 0:34:50month, with many saying they failed to budget properly for extra

0:34:50 > 0:34:56spending at Christmas.

0:34:56 > 0:35:01And that is the main news stories this morning and, well, the end of

0:35:01 > 0:35:05an era in the world of darts.And it was not a fairytale ending,

0:35:05 > 0:35:06unfortunately.

0:35:06 > 0:35:08There was no fairytale ending for the 16-time

0:35:08 > 0:35:11Darts World Champion Phil 'The Power' Taylor, as he retired

0:35:11 > 0:35:14with a defeat in this years final to first-time winner Rob Cross.

0:35:14 > 0:35:16The former electrician from Hastings was sensational throughout,

0:35:16 > 0:35:20and went 3-0 ahead with this 153 checkout.

0:35:20 > 0:35:22Taylor nearly sealed his last appearance

0:35:22 > 0:35:26with a 9-dart finish but missed out by the smallest of margins.

0:35:26 > 0:35:30But there was no let-up from Cross, he took the title

0:35:30 > 0:35:34at Alexandra Palace in London by 7-2.

0:35:34 > 0:35:38Cross was born in the very same year Taylor won his first world title,

0:35:38 > 0:35:39in 1990.

0:35:39 > 0:35:42Manchester United are back up to second in the Premier League

0:35:42 > 0:35:44table after their first win in four matches.

0:35:44 > 0:35:46A 2-0 victory over Everton at Goodison Park.

0:35:46 > 0:35:50It was decided by two special finishes as well,

0:35:50 > 0:35:52the opener from Antony Martial, who combined with his France

0:35:52 > 0:35:55international teammate Paul Pogba.

0:35:55 > 0:35:58Man of the match Pogba was also involved as Jesse Lingard scored

0:35:58 > 0:36:01an excellent solo goal to hand Sam Allardyce a second

0:36:01 > 0:36:13defeat of the week.

0:36:13 > 0:36:16Jose Mourinho being uncharacteristically quiet. Yes, we

0:36:16 > 0:36:21will hear from him later on.A lot of football fans would like it like

0:36:21 > 0:36:25that every week! Yes, exactly!

0:36:25 > 0:36:28Liverpool stay fourth after earning a dramatic 2-1 win over Burnley

0:36:28 > 0:36:29at Turf Moor.

0:36:29 > 0:36:32Forward Sadio Mane scored a superb opener for Jurgen Klopp's side

0:36:32 > 0:36:34and while Burnley scored a late equaliser, Ragnar Klavan bundled

0:36:34 > 0:36:37in a dramatic stoppage time winner.

0:36:37 > 0:36:42Burnley was not at their best, I am sure. It is an open game and you

0:36:42 > 0:36:46need to be concentrated. You need to be there. We have this massive

0:36:46 > 0:36:53setback with the equaliser. And otherwise we would not have drawn so

0:36:53 > 0:36:58often. But we could change it once again and so it feels really good.

0:36:58 > 0:37:01Bournemouth have edged further away from the Premier League relegation

0:37:01 > 0:37:03zone after scraping a late draw at Brighton.

0:37:03 > 0:37:06The home side were much the better team and twice took the lead

0:37:06 > 0:37:08through Anthony Knockaert and this from Glenn Murray.

0:37:08 > 0:37:10But Bournemouth pegged them back each time,

0:37:10 > 0:37:13the final goal - have a look at this -

0:37:13 > 0:37:16the definition of a goalmouth scramble.

0:37:16 > 0:37:19The pressure will increase on Stoke City manager Mark Hughes

0:37:19 > 0:37:22after their 1-0 defeat at home to Newcastle.

0:37:22 > 0:37:25Perez got the winner in the second half.

0:37:25 > 0:37:28Stoke drop to 16th, two points above the relegation zone,

0:37:28 > 0:37:34having won only two of their last 12 games.

0:37:34 > 0:37:39The key is, is everybody sits together and we get on with it. It

0:37:39 > 0:37:42is no good feeling sorry for ourselves and looking to blame

0:37:42 > 0:37:46people. I think we just need to take it on board, take responsibility for

0:37:46 > 0:37:51what we are doing here and don't be cowed by it. Get on with it.And are

0:37:51 > 0:37:55you confident that you can do it quickly?Well, who else is going to

0:37:55 > 0:37:59do it? In terms of the knowledge of the group, the time I have been

0:37:59 > 0:38:04here, that I am best to do that, so we just need to be allowed to get on

0:38:04 > 0:38:08with our job. That is what we will do, we are getting back together and

0:38:08 > 0:38:09we will go again.

0:38:09 > 0:38:12Britain's Johanna Konta is in action again this morning

0:38:12 > 0:38:14against Ajla Tomljanovic in the second round of the Brisbane

0:38:14 > 0:38:15International.

0:38:15 > 0:38:18The British number one came back from a set down against Madison Keys

0:38:18 > 0:38:21in the first round yesterday to take the decider.

0:38:21 > 0:38:23It's her first tournament with new coach Michael Joyce.

0:38:23 > 0:38:27In rugby union's Pro 14, Ulster made a great comeback to take

0:38:27 > 0:38:28a bonus point win over Munster yesterday.

0:38:28 > 0:38:31Munster had been comfortable, leading 17-0 at one stage,

0:38:31 > 0:38:34but the match turned when their centre Sam Arnold was red

0:38:34 > 0:38:37carded for a high tackle, and Ulster fought back with three

0:38:37 > 0:38:39late tries, the 24-17 win was sealed by Robert Lyttle

0:38:39 > 0:38:41in the final moments.

0:38:41 > 0:38:48Leinster narrowly beat Connacht in the day's other game.

0:38:48 > 0:38:59That it from me. Interesting, those comments from Phil Taylor, he wasn't

0:38:59 > 0:39:04even professional?No, he watched it on TV last year.Phil Taylor said it

0:39:04 > 0:39:08was a complete mismatch because of his youth against his age, and he

0:39:08 > 0:39:12said he was completely outplayed.I think what we saw last night was the

0:39:12 > 0:39:17future of darts.The end of one era...Yes, the beginning of

0:39:17 > 0:39:21another.Thank you very much indeed. Lots of people watching, you are

0:39:21 > 0:39:26probably on your way out the door to walk to work, catch the bus or maybe

0:39:26 > 0:39:30go by train. If you go by train, you may face a big increase in the

0:39:30 > 0:39:33fares, the biggest in five years coming into effect today.

0:39:33 > 0:39:35Steph's at London Bridge station with the details.

0:39:35 > 0:39:46It is still fairly quiet, to be fair,.Yes, still quiet, Rachel.

0:39:46 > 0:39:49Every now and again a flurry of people come in when the train comes

0:39:49 > 0:39:54into the station. This station has had a massive revamp, London Bridge,

0:39:54 > 0:39:58the fourth busiest train station in the UK. I am sure you will see

0:39:58 > 0:40:02through the morning lots of people coming here and also having a look,

0:40:02 > 0:40:06a couple of people arriving this morning, just having a look because

0:40:06 > 0:40:10it has been a construction site for quite sometime. A lot of money has

0:40:10 > 0:40:14been invested in it. This is money that comes from us purchasing train

0:40:14 > 0:40:18tickets. As you have said, rail fares have gone up this morning.

0:40:18 > 0:40:22Some people think they have gone up by too much. Other ministers say

0:40:22 > 0:40:28that we need it for rail modernisation. Here is the chief

0:40:28 > 0:40:32executive of network whale. I know that you are happy to see this --

0:40:32 > 0:40:38Network Rail. A lot of money has been spent on it.It is an

0:40:38 > 0:40:41extraordinary achievement and I am really proud of the team that have

0:40:41 > 0:40:46delivered this huge station project over the last five years, opening

0:40:46 > 0:40:50today on schedule, bang on schedule, but I am also really grateful to the

0:40:50 > 0:40:54passengers who have had to put up with this construction work over the

0:40:54 > 0:40:58last five years. And I thank them for their patients. And I hope that

0:40:58 > 0:41:03they start to get the benefits from this huge investment.And when you

0:41:03 > 0:41:07say rail passengers having to put up with this, they are having to put up

0:41:07 > 0:41:11with it across the network. Lots of overcrowding, lots of problems with

0:41:11 > 0:41:16punctuality. Is it ever going to change? We are working so hard at

0:41:16 > 0:41:20making these changes to the railway network.In the next year you are

0:41:20 > 0:41:25going to see a huge change. These projects take years. In the next

0:41:25 > 0:41:29year we are going to see not only the Thameslink programme but the

0:41:29 > 0:41:36upgrade of services into the great rail network, the Great North Run

0:41:36 > 0:41:39project, Edinburgh- Glasgow electrification project, Crossrail

0:41:39 > 0:41:43in a year's time, fundamental changes to the economic arteries of

0:41:43 > 0:41:48the country, and it is going to make a huge difference to passengers.

0:41:48 > 0:41:515000 new railway carriages which are going to transform the journeys for

0:41:51 > 0:41:55people.Can you understand why people are miffed at seeing rail

0:41:55 > 0:42:00fares go up so much at a time when wages are not going up as much?

0:42:00 > 0:42:05Absolutely, and we all share the desire to try to keep fares as low

0:42:05 > 0:42:11as possible. My job, I do not set the fares, it is to try to run the

0:42:11 > 0:42:14network as efficiently as possible and to deliver amazing projects like

0:42:14 > 0:42:18this as well as we can. That is why I think today is such an important

0:42:18 > 0:42:23day. Over the Christmas period we deliver 260 projects up and down the

0:42:23 > 0:42:28country. We had 32,000 people at working on the railway. They were

0:42:28 > 0:42:31improving it for the benefit of passengers. At the same time there

0:42:31 > 0:42:38are problems, like punctuality the worst in a decade in 2016, so for

0:42:38 > 0:42:43people it is hard to stomach when they pay so much to get to work so

0:42:43 > 0:42:47then they see the season tickets between £3000 and £5,000 for lots of

0:42:47 > 0:42:52people, it is hard to stomach it with overcrowding trains and

0:42:52 > 0:42:55problems with punctuality.I absolutely sympathise with that. The

0:42:55 > 0:42:58kind of changes we are making will make a difference and they take

0:42:58 > 0:43:02years to come through. The numbers of people travelling by train has

0:43:02 > 0:43:06increased enormously in the last 20 years. More than double, actually.

0:43:06 > 0:43:10In the next year we are going to start to see the benefits really

0:43:10 > 0:43:14coming through.Thank you very much for your time this morning. You can

0:43:14 > 0:43:18see the sudden flurry of people as a train has just come in this morning.

0:43:18 > 0:43:22I will be here talking to passengers as well about how they feel about

0:43:22 > 0:43:28the rail increases.Thank you so much. I think there are a good few

0:43:28 > 0:43:32people coming in and there are some lounging around in slippers eating

0:43:32 > 0:43:37chocolate for Breakfast - lucky them!We can only dream. We have a

0:43:37 > 0:43:44big tin under the desk here, though, Steph, you are missing out.Oh,

0:43:44 > 0:43:48nice.I thought the whole nation overslept, though I am pleased to

0:43:48 > 0:43:53say something will have got off the train.We have had quite a dry

0:43:53 > 0:43:59yesterday day in most places...I don't know where you were, it was

0:43:59 > 0:44:03tipping it down!It was nice in the morning. It doesn't look good in

0:44:03 > 0:44:08many places, does it, Matt?

0:44:08 > 0:44:13Some wet and windy weather on the way. Mainly dominating the southern

0:44:13 > 0:44:18half of the UK. It will be a little bit wet at times further north as

0:44:18 > 0:44:22well but there is lots of cloud over the Atlantic. This will be

0:44:22 > 0:44:22well but there is lots of cloud over the Atlantic. This will be a

0:44:22 > 0:44:26particular it stormy area of low pressure heading in the night but at

0:44:26 > 0:44:31the moment you can see the cloud pushing into the west. Still some

0:44:31 > 0:44:34showers in eastern areas, so some sunshine this morning but cloud

0:44:34 > 0:44:38running in from the west. While it is a dry and frosty start towards

0:44:38 > 0:44:42the north-east of Scotland, towards the west by the time we hit 8am in

0:44:42 > 0:44:47be rain starting to fall. Wet morning commute in Northern Ireland,

0:44:47 > 0:44:51some of that rain heavy at times, as it will be towards the north of

0:44:51 > 0:44:56Wales and mid Wales as well. Try to begin with, the best of any sunshine

0:44:56 > 0:44:59towards easternmost counties. In the far south-west there will be some

0:44:59 > 0:45:04rain but damp and drizzly here. Not a huge amount of rain across

0:45:04 > 0:45:07southern counties of England and Wales through the day. From the mid

0:45:07 > 0:45:13Wales northwards, some heavy rain. The Scottish mountains given a

0:45:13 > 0:45:17covering in places but the rain band shifting through. Quite gusty winds

0:45:17 > 0:45:21on it. It means the sunshine will be back for many for a time although

0:45:21 > 0:45:25rain will return to Wales and eventually Northern Ireland later.

0:45:25 > 0:45:29Temperatures today around six to 11 degrees. Not 1 million miles from

0:45:29 > 0:45:33where it should be at this time of year. That is as storm Lenore pushes

0:45:33 > 0:45:37its way in. That will bring some strong winds through the first half

0:45:37 > 0:45:44of the night in Northern Ireland -- Eleanor. 70 mph gusts possible,

0:45:44 > 0:45:48damage and travel disruption and rain spread across just about all

0:45:48 > 0:45:53parts. From midnight onwards, we will see the strongest of the winds

0:45:53 > 0:45:56and the far south of Scotland, mainly Cumbria, Lancashire, 70 to 80

0:45:56 > 0:46:03mph gust. Widespread severe gales spreading into the east of the

0:46:03 > 0:46:07Pennines in the early hours of the morning as well. Quite a blustery

0:46:07 > 0:46:09starts tomorrow morning, the exception being northern Scotland

0:46:09 > 0:46:14where it should be a dry and day for quite awhile. The northern rain

0:46:14 > 0:46:17quickly clears and then a day of sunshine and showers, some of those

0:46:17 > 0:46:21heavy with hail and thunder. Some will spend a good part of the day

0:46:21 > 0:46:25dry. A few showers that further south you are. It will fill a touch

0:46:25 > 0:46:28cooler tomorrow compared with today. Then through Wednesday night into

0:46:28 > 0:46:32Thursday it remains windy across the south. Another area of low pressure

0:46:32 > 0:46:38moves its way in but to Scotland and northern England, we start with a

0:46:38 > 0:46:41frost on Thursday evening before the wet and windy weather gradually

0:46:41 > 0:46:44pushes through yet again. In southern areas on Thursday we will

0:46:44 > 0:46:48see some of the wettest conditions. For now, thank you very much indeed.

0:46:48 > 0:46:50Reading more books is a popular New Year's resolution.

0:46:50 > 0:46:52But how about reading an entire bookshop, while running it

0:46:52 > 0:46:53But how about reading an entire bookshop, while running it

0:46:53 > 0:46:54at the same time?

0:46:54 > 0:46:57That is what holidaymakers are being given the chance to do

0:46:57 > 0:46:58in Wigtown, in Scotland.

0:46:58 > 0:47:01It is proving so popular, it is booked solidly until 2020,

0:47:01 > 0:47:04and the concept could soon be branching out into Asia.

0:47:04 > 0:47:06Our Scotland correspondent Lorna Gordon has been

0:47:06 > 0:47:15to take a look.

0:47:15 > 0:47:19Between the hills and the city in south-west Scotland is a small town

0:47:19 > 0:47:24where they like them looks a lot -- the sea. Wigtown is Scotland's

0:47:24 > 0:47:28National book count and among the many shops here, one is available to

0:47:28 > 0:47:33rent for a week at a time. It is run by enthusiasts who want to be

0:47:33 > 0:47:39surrounded by books while trying their hand at selling some as well.

0:47:39 > 0:47:44Right, Helen McDonald...Alison Drury is a police officer, but not

0:47:44 > 0:47:49this week. Instead she is stacking bookshelves and shifting stock. You

0:47:49 > 0:47:53are paying for the privilege of running a bookshop for a week. What

0:47:53 > 0:47:57do your friends make of it?A bit of a mixture. I think some of them

0:47:57 > 0:48:02think that I am a bit eccentric and think it is a very strange thing to

0:48:02 > 0:48:07do. By the same token I have some friends who think it is extremely

0:48:07 > 0:48:12exciting and are excited for me and a bit envious.Have you been

0:48:12 > 0:48:15enjoying it?I have. You can tell, can't you?The temporary book store

0:48:15 > 0:48:19boss has free rein. Displays can change. So can the promotions. The

0:48:19 > 0:48:23chance to run a bookshop for a week or two has proved popular. People

0:48:23 > 0:48:26have come from as far away as New Zealand, North America and South

0:48:26 > 0:48:33Korea to run this place. There was a couple in their 80s who came on

0:48:33 > 0:48:36honeymoon. And others who liked the town so much that they stayed. This

0:48:36 > 0:48:40shop, which once came close to closure, turned around by those who

0:48:40 > 0:48:44have a dream of running a bookshop and want the chance to test it out.

0:48:44 > 0:48:49I think in everyone's life you have that what if voice. What if I just

0:48:49 > 0:48:52owned a bookshop by the sea in Scotland. We want to give people the

0:48:52 > 0:48:56chance to do it. This is actual, real virtual reality. Where you can

0:48:56 > 0:49:02come and be in a bookshop and feel the cold and read the books and

0:49:02 > 0:49:06enjoy the community, and the kind of have little surprises and an

0:49:06 > 0:49:09adventure along the way.And if those who have come on their

0:49:09 > 0:49:12bookshop holiday are looking for ideas, with Wigtown boasting 14

0:49:12 > 0:49:15bookshops, there is plenty here to inspire.We love our bookshops here,

0:49:15 > 0:49:20we love our books. And we have even got people coming from far and wide

0:49:20 > 0:49:27to run a bookshop in Wigtown. Imagine that. It sounds crazy idea

0:49:27 > 0:49:32but what a fantastic thing for Wigtown, opening Wigtown up to the

0:49:32 > 0:49:35world and encouraging people to come and share our love for books.That

0:49:35 > 0:49:39passion for selling books may be spreading. There is interest from a

0:49:39 > 0:49:43Chinese firm looking to open its own version of The Open Book holiday

0:49:43 > 0:49:48business. So successful has this Scottish one being, it is booked up

0:49:48 > 0:49:54for the next two years.

0:49:54 > 0:49:58Would you fancy that?I don't know, I think I like a holiday where you

0:49:58 > 0:50:04have a holiday.You don't have to do any work!And serving people, and

0:50:04 > 0:50:11working long hours, that is not a holiday. But let us know what you

0:50:11 > 0:50:14think about that this morning, if that is something you would fancy.

0:50:14 > 0:50:17400 biscuits, 100 portions of sweets, and nearly 70 chocolate

0:50:17 > 0:50:21bars - that is how much the average child in England eats in a year,

0:50:21 > 0:50:22according to Public Health England.

0:50:22 > 0:50:26It has got a new campaign to help parents to buy healthier snacks,

0:50:26 > 0:50:27and fewer of them.

0:50:27 > 0:50:28So is it realistic?

0:50:28 > 0:50:31We spoke to one family to find out how they manage

0:50:31 > 0:50:53their children's snacking habits.

0:50:53 > 0:50:58Snacks, if they go to the shop on their own and buy their own snacks

0:50:58 > 0:51:02with their own money, so you can't really stop them from having their

0:51:02 > 0:51:05little snacks.When she was little she didn't have any sugary products,

0:51:05 > 0:51:10so she was about three. But then this one, all changed. And I think

0:51:10 > 0:51:15she's having bit too much.I normally I not as many snacks as my

0:51:15 > 0:51:22sister does. But most of them are probably healthy.We do monitor

0:51:22 > 0:51:28their intake of sugar, as it is. As well, the serial, but they eat, and

0:51:28 > 0:51:33the Swedes that they have.I don't eat, like come to many, because

0:51:33 > 0:51:38sometimes I just don't like them. You even see food that you don't

0:51:38 > 0:51:42think that there's much sugar in, and when you do actually take a

0:51:42 > 0:51:48look, you know, it is full of sugar. I know kids like sweets, at all the

0:51:48 > 0:51:52sugary stuff you get from shops and McDonald's and things like that, but

0:51:52 > 0:51:56it is for the parents to keep an eye on them, and their intake.At when

0:51:56 > 0:52:03they go out, then we might have somebody saying she wants some

0:52:03 > 0:52:08sweeties, so sometimes it is easier to just give in to it, to keep her

0:52:08 > 0:52:20quiet. Because she is quite noisy when she gets going.

0:52:20 > 0:52:24We have assembled in front of us the amount of sugary snacks which a

0:52:24 > 0:52:28child will eat in one month.It looks a lot when you put it

0:52:28 > 0:52:33together.You have sugary drinks in the bowl, and cakes, chocolate,

0:52:33 > 0:52:37sweets, it is here. When you see it like that it is a bit of an eye

0:52:37 > 0:52:37opener.

0:52:37 > 0:52:40To talk us through the minefield of options out there

0:52:40 > 0:52:42is Dr Jenny Harries, the deputy medical director

0:52:42 > 0:52:43of Public Health England.

0:52:43 > 0:52:48Good morning, thank you for coming in. Does that shock you?Well, it is

0:52:48 > 0:52:53not a good site, really, is it? We know that children are eating on

0:52:53 > 0:53:01average three unhealthy snacks and sugary drinks a day. And these

0:53:01 > 0:53:05obesity levels are bad for children going forward. It is not a good

0:53:05 > 0:53:10sign, and we know that 51% of the sugar that children take in our

0:53:10 > 0:53:14coming from these snacks.Is this a new thing? I remember having sweets

0:53:14 > 0:53:19once a week, on Friday, and that was about it. I don't know if I am

0:53:19 > 0:53:22looking back with rose tinted glasses.You may well be. When

0:53:22 > 0:53:25people do look back, they often don't remember everything they eat,

0:53:25 > 0:53:29which is a crucial part of this. When we do think of snacks, we think

0:53:29 > 0:53:34that children are having an odd treat, and an odd treat is not going

0:53:34 > 0:53:36to matter in their lifetime but children are snacking readily

0:53:36 > 0:53:41through the day. Most children will be eating three unhealthy snacks or

0:53:41 > 0:53:44sugary drinks in a day, and they are therefore consuming about three

0:53:44 > 0:53:49times the sugar intake which is recommended.And by sugary snack you

0:53:49 > 0:53:58mean a kick or a biscuit?Exactly, the sorts of things. -- cake. Drinks

0:53:58 > 0:54:02with added sugar are contributing significantly.So to tackle this you

0:54:02 > 0:54:07are saying have two snacks a day of about 100 calories each. I don't

0:54:07 > 0:54:12know if you have seen the front page of the Sun today, they are calling

0:54:12 > 0:54:16this Mars army, that you can't even have a Mars bar or a bar of

0:54:16 > 0:54:20chocolate of any sort as part of that sort of calorie counting.I

0:54:20 > 0:54:23think what the papers there are doing is underestimating the care

0:54:23 > 0:54:26and concern most parents have. They are coming to us and asking for

0:54:26 > 0:54:30support, really, to manage the pester power of children that you

0:54:30 > 0:54:34often experience. I have had four kids myself and you know when you go

0:54:34 > 0:54:37through the supermarkets children are looking at things to get. What

0:54:37 > 0:54:42we are trying to do is not alter policy at all but give them a rule

0:54:42 > 0:54:46of thumb which says 100 calories for a snack and two a day, Max.So what

0:54:46 > 0:54:52is a 100 calorie snack? Here is my problem. The children come home from

0:54:52 > 0:54:55school and they are absolutely starving. What is a 100 calorie

0:54:55 > 0:55:00snack? What is a healthy snack?So we would always a start with things

0:55:00 > 0:55:04like fresh or frozen fruit or vegetable. So an Apple would be 50

0:55:04 > 0:55:08calories. Those sorts of things, these are natural sugars. What we

0:55:08 > 0:55:12are trying to get across is the added sugar which goes into product,

0:55:12 > 0:55:17which children are just consuming. So a lot of people say what is 100

0:55:17 > 0:55:20calories? If you look on the food packs, you will often find

0:55:20 > 0:55:24labelling. We are not just looking for the calories, but the green

0:55:24 > 0:55:29colour coding of that.Because people tend not to calorie count

0:55:29 > 0:55:34these days.So the focus here is about healthy nutrition. But also we

0:55:34 > 0:55:38know that the higher sugar food tends to have higher calories as

0:55:38 > 0:55:49well. Our campaign has a food app called the food scanner.I have it,

0:55:49 > 0:55:53it is very disturbing. You can look at your favourite food and it shows

0:55:53 > 0:55:58you that fat and sugar content. But we have talked a lot over the last

0:55:58 > 0:56:02few years about eating disorders, particularly young people. Anorexia

0:56:02 > 0:56:06and Bolivia, and I wonder if making families obsessed with calories,

0:56:06 > 0:56:11whether that could backfire.So this isn't about obsession. Eating

0:56:11 > 0:56:16disorders are an exception...But 100 or 200 calories is very

0:56:16 > 0:56:22prescriptive, isn't it?What we're saying is this is not a

0:56:22 > 0:56:27prescription, it is a of thumb. Parents want to know some kind of

0:56:27 > 0:56:31guideline, and the food scanner has noises to go with it. You can send

0:56:31 > 0:56:36the kids off with the phone to scan, a bit like a treasure hunt in a

0:56:36 > 0:56:39supermarket, and you can find which are the healthy foods to have.Thank

0:56:39 > 0:56:44you very much indeed. Would you like a biscuit?No, thank you. I will go

0:56:44 > 0:56:49for my Apple.There is only 100 calories in that one.We will have

0:56:49 > 1:00:12to remove them from the table before we get stuck into them.

1:00:12 > 1:00:13in half an hour.

1:00:13 > 1:00:15Plenty more on our website at the usual address.

1:00:15 > 1:00:20Bye for now.

1:00:37 > 1:00:40Hello, this is Breakfast, with Jon Kay and Rachel Burden.

1:00:40 > 1:00:42Back to work but at a higher cost.

1:00:42 > 1:00:49From today, rail passengers face the biggest fare-rise in five years.

1:00:49 > 1:00:52Many season tickets have gone up by more than £100,

1:00:52 > 1:00:54as campaigners warned that people were "being

1:00:54 > 1:01:01priced out of getting to work".

1:01:01 > 1:01:05Good morning from the newly revamped London Bridge station. Ministers say

1:01:05 > 1:01:08the increases are important for the modernisation of the network. I will

1:01:08 > 1:01:19speak with the passengers about what they think.

1:01:19 > 1:01:21Good morning.

1:01:21 > 1:01:27It's Tuesday, January 2nd.

1:01:27 > 1:01:32Also this morning:

1:01:32 > 1:01:36Limit children to two low-calorie snacks per day, the latest advice.

1:01:36 > 1:01:37The Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson calls

1:01:37 > 1:01:40for a "meaningful debate" as protests in Iran flare

1:01:40 > 1:01:42for a fifth day.

1:01:42 > 1:01:49And a seaplane that crashed and killed six people, including five

1:01:49 > 1:01:53Britons, will be raised from the sea bottom for frenzied examination.

1:01:53 > 1:01:57In sport, there is no fairytale ending for one of the most

1:01:57 > 1:01:58successful sportsmen of all time.

1:01:58 > 1:02:01Debutant Rob Cross outplayed Phil "the power" Taylor in his final

1:02:01 > 1:02:02world darts final.

1:02:02 > 1:02:0516-time champion Taylor retiring with a defeat.

1:02:05 > 1:02:11And Matt has the weather.

1:02:11 > 1:02:15Not quite super. We have a dry start for many but if you don't see wet

1:02:15 > 1:02:19weather today you certainly will tonight and for some to know some

1:02:19 > 1:02:22stormy winds as well. Full forecast coming up in around 15 minutes.

1:02:22 > 1:02:23Thank you.

1:02:23 > 1:02:23Good morning.

1:02:23 > 1:02:26First our main story.

1:02:26 > 1:02:29The biggest increase in rail fares in five years comes into force this

1:02:29 > 1:02:31morning, prompting protests at several stations as many

1:02:31 > 1:02:33commuters return to work after the Christmas break.

1:02:33 > 1:02:36In some cases, travellers will find themselves paying more

1:02:36 > 1:02:37than £100 extra a year.

1:02:37 > 1:02:41Campaigners warn the rise is pricing ordinary people off the railways.

1:02:41 > 1:02:43The government says they're investing more in faster,

1:02:43 > 1:02:44more reliable trains.

1:02:44 > 1:02:50Here's our transport correspondent, Richard Westcott.

1:02:50 > 1:02:53Can I please see your tickets?

1:02:53 > 1:03:01Another New Year, another fare rise.

1:03:01 > 1:03:03Regulated season tickets go up 3.6% this year.

1:03:03 > 1:03:06It will add just shy of £150 to the price for commuters

1:03:06 > 1:03:10coming into London on the stripe riddled line from Hove in East

1:03:10 > 1:03:12Sussex.

1:03:12 > 1:03:15Nearly £110 to a yearly ticket from Liverpool to Manchester.

1:03:15 > 1:03:18And commuters going into Birmingham from Gloucester must find £140 more

1:03:18 > 1:03:21this year.

1:03:21 > 1:03:24Many now pay between £3000 and £5,000 to get to work

1:03:24 > 1:03:26with the most pricey tickets in the south

1:03:26 > 1:03:28of England.

1:03:28 > 1:03:32The government says it's spending record amounts on improving

1:03:32 > 1:03:35the network, with more seats being provided on newer trains,

1:03:35 > 1:03:40and more reliable electrified lines.

1:03:40 > 1:03:43But campaigners argue that ordinary people are being priced

1:03:43 > 1:03:46off our trains, with the latest figures showing a drop in the number

1:03:46 > 1:03:48of journeys made using a season ticket.

1:03:48 > 1:03:52I think this fare rise really throws the spotlight on value for money.

1:03:52 > 1:03:58Passengers want to see a more reliable train service,

1:03:58 > 1:04:02they want to have a better chance of getting a seat and better

1:04:02 > 1:04:03information during disruption.

1:04:03 > 1:04:05And train companies can take sting out of this

1:04:05 > 1:04:08by offering direct debit payments for annual season tickets

1:04:08 > 1:04:10helping the passengers pay for this big lump sum.

1:04:10 > 1:04:13They say that fares have been outstripping wages for years

1:04:13 > 1:04:18and are calling for a price freeze.

1:04:18 > 1:04:20Parents are being urged to give their children just two

1:04:20 > 1:04:23low-calorie snacks a day, to help safeguard their health.

1:04:23 > 1:04:25Public Health England says the snacks should be no more

1:04:25 > 1:04:27than 100 calories each.

1:04:27 > 1:04:30The advice is being given after it's emerged primary school children

1:04:30 > 1:04:32are consuming three times more sugar than the recommended limit,

1:04:32 > 1:04:39as our health correspondent, James Gallagher, reports.

1:04:39 > 1:04:42Half the sugar us kids eat and drink each year comes from sugary

1:04:42 > 1:04:43snacks and drinks.

1:04:43 > 1:04:46Kids get through a mountain of sugary snacks each year.

1:04:46 > 1:04:48Cake, ice cream, pop, juice, biscuits, sweets, and chocolate.

1:04:48 > 1:04:51Children eat three times more sugar than official advice,

1:04:51 > 1:05:01just over half of it comes from snacking between meals.

1:05:01 > 1:05:05It is one reason more than a quarter of children have rotten teeth

1:05:05 > 1:05:06by the time they turn five.

1:05:06 > 1:05:10This Public Health England campaign is warning that snacking has got out

1:05:10 > 1:05:13of hand and is increasing the chance of type 2 diabetes,

1:05:13 > 1:05:15heart disease and cancer.

1:05:15 > 1:05:17We are very concerned about snacking.

1:05:17 > 1:05:20Our children have unhealthy diets, they are eating too many calories.

1:05:20 > 1:05:24They're eating too much sugar and snacking is part of the problem.

1:05:24 > 1:05:27We are encouraging parents to be aware of snacking and try to cut

1:05:27 > 1:05:29back and replace unhealthy snacks with better snack.

1:05:29 > 1:05:35So how do parents feel about snacking?

1:05:35 > 1:05:39I know that kids like sweets, and all of the sugar and stuff that

1:05:39 > 1:05:42you get from shops in McDonald's and things like that,

1:05:42 > 1:05:47but it is for the parents to keep an eye on them and their intake.

1:05:47 > 1:05:50Public Health England is advising snacks are limited to just 100

1:05:50 > 1:05:53calories and eaten no more than twice a day.

1:05:53 > 1:05:56It says fruit and veg are ideal, and even maltloaf and crumpets

1:05:56 > 1:06:17are better than anything you will find in the confectionery aisles.

1:06:17 > 1:06:19The Foreign Secretary, Boris Johnson, has called

1:06:19 > 1:06:22for a meaningful debate in Iran, where 13 people have been

1:06:22 > 1:06:23killed in protests since Thursday.

1:06:23 > 1:06:25Demonstrators, who are angry about living standards,

1:06:25 > 1:06:28attacked police stations late into the night as they took

1:06:28 > 1:06:30to the streets in a number of cities.

1:06:30 > 1:06:32President Hassan Rouhani call the protests an opportunity,

1:06:32 > 1:06:35not a threat but vowed to crack down on lawbreakers.

1:06:35 > 1:06:38Iran has not seen anything like this in almost a decade.

1:06:38 > 1:06:40The country's leadership under fire in the biggest

1:06:40 > 1:06:41protests since 2009.

1:06:41 > 1:06:42People are angry about high unemployment,

1:06:42 > 1:06:44rising prices and corruption.

1:06:44 > 1:06:47Police stations have been attacked, authorities say one policeman

1:06:47 > 1:06:53was shot dead on Monday in Najafabad.

1:06:53 > 1:07:00Three other officers were injured.

1:07:00 > 1:07:01In recent days the country's elected

1:07:01 > 1:07:04President, Rouhani, has sought to downplay the protests

1:07:04 > 1:07:05and their significance saying they were

1:07:05 > 1:07:20instigated via Iran's enemies.

1:07:20 > 1:07:23TRANSLATION:Our victories against the US and the Zionist

1:07:23 > 1:07:24regime are unbearable for our enemies.

1:07:24 > 1:07:27Our success in the region is intolerable for them.

1:07:27 > 1:07:34They are out for revenge and trying to provoke people.

1:07:34 > 1:07:43So far his words have done little to stem the protest.

1:07:43 > 1:07:46In the past, to do that, the government has used force.

1:07:46 > 1:07:48There have been large counterdemonstrations organised

1:07:48 > 1:07:51in support of the country's leadership.

1:07:51 > 1:07:54But as the protests enter a sixth day, the message from many Iranians

1:07:54 > 1:08:07is that they want change.

1:08:07 > 1:08:10South Korea has offered high level talks with North Korea to discuss

1:08:10 > 1:08:12participation in the 2018 Winter Olympic Games.

1:08:12 > 1:08:15The South Korean President says it's a "groundbreaking chance" to move

1:08:15 > 1:08:17towards peace, and has suggesting meeting as early

1:08:17 > 1:08:19as the ninth of January.

1:08:19 > 1:08:23It would be the first time the sides have met in more than two years.

1:08:23 > 1:08:25More than 300 women from Hollywood's entertainment industry have launched

1:08:25 > 1:08:28an initiative to tackle sexual harassment in workplaces.

1:08:28 > 1:08:30The campaign called Time's Up includes includes Hollywood stars

1:08:30 > 1:08:32such as Meryl Streep and Jennifer Lawrence.

1:08:32 > 1:08:40It will provide legal support for women and men who suffer abuse.

1:08:40 > 1:08:42Ever since the Weinstein, Harvey Weinstein, story broke back

1:08:42 > 1:08:44in October, there have been dozens and dozens

1:08:44 > 1:08:46of actresses, talent agents, lawyers, CEOs within Hollywood

1:08:46 > 1:08:50meeting every single week to say, what can we do to make sure this

1:08:50 > 1:08:54change is lasting, and what kind of initiatives can we put in place

1:08:54 > 1:09:03to make sure that things change?

1:09:03 > 1:09:0680 people were stabbed to death in London last year -

1:09:06 > 1:09:08a rise of a third compared to 2016.

1:09:08 > 1:09:11The figures come as police are investigating the murders

1:09:11 > 1:09:14of four young men in the capital who were stabbed in unrelated

1:09:14 > 1:09:15incidents during a 24-hour period.

1:09:15 > 1:09:17The youngest victim is 17 years old.

1:09:17 > 1:09:20So far detectives have arrested six people in connection

1:09:20 > 1:09:25with their inquiries.

1:09:25 > 1:09:28And a seaplane that crashed and killed six people,

1:09:28 > 1:09:33including five Britons, will be raised from the sea

1:09:33 > 1:09:37bottom for forensic examination.

1:09:37 > 1:09:43Richard cousins, who ran a multibillion pound catering company,

1:09:43 > 1:09:48was killed along with his sons, fiancee, her daughter and the pilot.

1:09:48 > 1:09:52Aviation experts believe the plane stalled before crashing into the

1:09:52 > 1:09:54water.

1:09:54 > 1:09:57Millions of people are at risk of falling into debt this month

1:09:57 > 1:09:59as a result of Christmas spending.

1:09:59 > 1:10:01Research carried out by the Money Advice Trust suggests

1:10:01 > 1:10:04one in six people across Britain will fall behind on payments

1:10:04 > 1:10:06this month, with many saying they failed

1:10:06 > 1:10:12to budget properly for extra spending at Christmas.

1:10:12 > 1:10:17This will wake you up if you are thinking about having a shower this

1:10:17 > 1:10:18morning!

1:10:18 > 1:10:22While many of us may have spent New Year's Day sleeping off a late

1:10:22 > 1:10:25night of partying, others started 2018 with an icy cold plunge.

1:10:25 > 1:10:28Hundreds of people in the American state of Minnesota shrugged off

1:10:28 > 1:10:31temperatures of -15 Celsius to jump into a frozen lake to raise

1:10:31 > 1:10:34money for veterans.

1:10:34 > 1:10:37But here's the silver lining, it's warmer in the water

1:10:37 > 1:10:42than it is on the ice.

1:10:42 > 1:10:50It is all relative. The air temperature was -30 eight. The water

1:10:50 > 1:10:55was only - 15.That is going to wake you up -- -38. You would feel

1:10:55 > 1:11:03amazing after that! Either that or standing around waiting for a train.

1:11:03 > 1:11:07Some rail commuters are having to pay £100 extra on season tickets

1:11:07 > 1:11:10from this morning.

1:11:10 > 1:11:12We've sent Steph to London Bridge station to bring

1:11:12 > 1:11:15us the details.

1:11:15 > 1:11:19Newly revamped London Bridge station this morning. Those affairs are

1:11:19 > 1:11:23problem what people are focusing on, rather than the surroundings, I

1:11:23 > 1:11:28guess, Steph?Yes, good morning. There is a bit of that. People are

1:11:28 > 1:11:33not shy to talk to me about train fares, it is fair to say. This is

1:11:33 > 1:11:38the revamped London Bridge Station, the fourth busiest in the UK. £1

1:11:38 > 1:11:41billion has been spent on this in the last five years. And when you

1:11:41 > 1:11:45talk to ministers about why we have these increases with the rail cost

1:11:45 > 1:11:49they say it is for things like this, the modernisation of the network to

1:11:49 > 1:11:54try to get the trains more punctual, less overcrowded and generally with

1:11:54 > 1:11:59the high demand that they have, and lots of people have an opinion about

1:11:59 > 1:12:02this, so just from the people I have chatted to this morning they have

1:12:02 > 1:12:05lots to say about whether they think this is fair.

1:12:05 > 1:12:10At the beginning of every year most commuters don't get a pay rise,

1:12:10 > 1:12:15therefore it is totally unfair that we get an increase in train fares.

1:12:15 > 1:12:19It has gone up every year religiously but it is not too bad

1:12:19 > 1:12:23considering all of the money they have spent here and you can see it,

1:12:23 > 1:12:27so it is going somewhere eventually. It is not value for money. It is

1:12:27 > 1:12:30simple as that. What you are paying for for the rail fares don't

1:12:30 > 1:12:34represent what you're actually getting.There is always delays and

1:12:34 > 1:12:38hardly any seats, so if they are going to extend the carriages then,

1:12:38 > 1:12:43yes, it would make sense.

1:12:43 > 1:12:46So some mixed thoughts from the passengers I have been chatting to

1:12:46 > 1:12:50this morning. When I talk about train fares people say, where does

1:12:50 > 1:12:56the money go? If you look at the pie chart it breaks it down quite well.

1:12:56 > 1:13:01You can see the majority of the costs for things like staffing, not

1:13:01 > 1:13:04a surprise, but also the modernisation of the network and

1:13:04 > 1:13:08people ask me about the profits for the company as you can see on the

1:13:08 > 1:13:13pie chart, representing three p in the pound on a train ticket. Lots of

1:13:13 > 1:13:19people with lots of thoughts this morning, not least Bridget from the

1:13:19 > 1:13:23Campaign for Better Transport. What do you think?It is a kick in the

1:13:23 > 1:13:27teeth for commuters coming back after Christmas and rail fares going

1:13:27 > 1:13:30up again. And far above the increase is most people see in pay packets

1:13:30 > 1:13:35and that is the problem.It is interesting how they work it out

1:13:35 > 1:13:38because of the specific way that they calculate the increases, which

1:13:38 > 1:13:42is how the bosses then say that it has nothing to do with them stop

1:13:42 > 1:13:46loop it is not down to the rail companies but down to the framework

1:13:46 > 1:13:50set by the government. Half of the fares are regulated. The whole point

1:13:50 > 1:13:55of regulated fares is to stop the unfair rises. Because they are based

1:13:55 > 1:13:59on the Retail Price Index which outstrips people's pay rises it is a

1:13:59 > 1:14:04very unvested you are in. Some of the unregulated fares are going up

1:14:04 > 1:14:09less and we think it is time the government changes things.When I

1:14:09 > 1:14:13was talking to the boss of Network Rail he was saying that this is

1:14:13 > 1:14:17really important money to make the service better. It doesn't take long

1:14:17 > 1:14:20to find people who have had a nightmare getting in with the

1:14:20 > 1:14:24overcrowded train or a delayed train. Is it fair to say that they

1:14:24 > 1:14:30need this money?We need investment in the railways. We are in a modern

1:14:30 > 1:14:33station today and across the country people are benefiting from trains

1:14:33 > 1:14:37and stations. There are too many people suffering with old stock and

1:14:37 > 1:14:43inaccessible stations. And now I'm fare rises in fares. There is no

1:14:43 > 1:14:49railway on -- in the world, which runs on fares alone, there has to be

1:14:49 > 1:14:54subsidies. We have seen fuel duties frozen year-on-year and yet trains

1:14:54 > 1:14:59are better for the environment, so why don't commuters get a break?How

1:14:59 > 1:15:05can we compare with other countries? Some of the most expensive fares in

1:15:05 > 1:15:09the world. It is good that investment is being made but it has

1:15:09 > 1:15:14to be done on a fair basis and that is all -- all we are asking for.

1:15:14 > 1:15:17Thank you for your time this morning. I will be through the

1:15:17 > 1:15:21morning. It is one of the typical things when you do live TV. Moments

1:15:21 > 1:15:25before you come the station is packed with people and then soon as

1:15:25 > 1:15:29go live everyone is gone and it looks like it is empty. It has been

1:15:29 > 1:15:33busy with the flurry of people coming and going. I am told it will

1:15:33 > 1:15:36get very busy as we move on this morning. I will chat with more

1:15:36 > 1:15:49people about what they think. Here we go. A train is coming out.

1:15:49 > 1:15:57Steff would be great panto, it's behind you! We will be back with you

1:15:57 > 1:16:02and tons more people later in the programme. The real world has come

1:16:02 > 1:16:05back to us with a bang, one way or another.

1:16:05 > 1:16:07You are watching Breakfast from BBC News.

1:16:07 > 1:16:10The main stories this morning: Passenger groups are staging

1:16:10 > 1:16:12protests against the biggest increase in rail fares

1:16:12 > 1:16:13for five years.

1:16:13 > 1:16:16No more than two low-calorie snacks a day - the latest advice to parents

1:16:16 > 1:16:24in an attempt to tackle childhood obesity.

1:16:24 > 1:16:28Here is Matt with a look at this morning's weather.

1:16:28 > 1:16:33I saw a glimpse of blue sky, but I have to say, there wasn't an awful

1:16:33 > 1:16:37lot around. This morning I got up on the whole place was lit up the light

1:16:37 > 1:16:42of the moon. It was amazing.Wasn't it just. One of our Weather Watchers

1:16:42 > 1:16:47managed to capture moon last night. Of course, Scotland has a bank

1:16:47 > 1:16:52holiday today, but it was the Wolf Moon. The first full moon of the

1:16:52 > 1:16:56year and the closest full moon of the year, which is why it looked so

1:16:56 > 1:17:00big and so bright. The clear skies which allowed the viewing of that

1:17:00 > 1:17:01earlier are

1:17:01 > 1:17:01which allowed the viewing of that earlier are disappearing quite

1:17:01 > 1:17:06quickly. Satellite imagery reveals what is coming our way in the next

1:17:06 > 1:17:09few days. This area of cloud will bring stormy weather tonight. The

1:17:09 > 1:17:12clearest of the skies down the eastern fringes of Scotland and

1:17:12 > 1:17:16England, so you might if you are lucky get a little bit of sunshine,

1:17:16 > 1:17:20the best chance of that in Orkney and Shetland but cloud edging its

1:17:20 > 1:17:26way in and by 9am the rain will get close to Glasgow. The Argyll & Bute,

1:17:26 > 1:17:29but some very wet weather across Northern Ireland at the moment which

1:17:29 > 1:17:33will start to ease off by the time we get to nine a.m.. North-west

1:17:33 > 1:17:37England turning wet during the latter part of the morning rush

1:17:37 > 1:17:42hour, the same across the Midlands. The further south we are in the

1:17:42 > 1:17:45south Wales in south-west England, the rain lighter and patchy and that

1:17:45 > 1:17:49will be the case across southern areas. The heaviest rain in the

1:17:49 > 1:17:52North Midlands northwards. Turning to snow in the north Pennines and

1:17:52 > 1:17:56through the afternoon across the higher ground of Scotland. But it is

1:17:56 > 1:18:00going to shift on, some gusty winds to go with it so many places will

1:18:00 > 1:18:04see sunshine return for a time before yet more wet weather returns

1:18:04 > 1:18:07across parts of Wales. Driest and brightest will be Shetland. 40

1:18:07 > 1:18:11degrees, nothing unusual for the time of year. A mild day across the

1:18:11 > 1:18:16south. Some stormy weather tonight, storm Eleanor named by the Irish

1:18:16 > 1:18:20weather service will cross through southern Scotland for the night. To

1:18:20 > 1:18:23take you through the night, outbreaks of rain developing quite

1:18:23 > 1:18:26widely this evening, and the wind strengthening in Northern Ireland.

1:18:26 > 1:18:3270 mph gust is enough to cause some problems. Rain rattles through quite

1:18:32 > 1:18:36quickly, lingering across southern Scotland but towards the far south

1:18:36 > 1:18:39of Scotland, north-west England through the second part of the night

1:18:39 > 1:18:42will see the strongest and most damaging parts of the wind. 70,

1:18:42 > 1:18:47maybe 80 mph gust. Elsewhere, in northern Scotland and southern

1:18:47 > 1:18:53Scotland, extensive gales into the first part of tomorrow morning. A

1:18:53 > 1:18:57blustery day for many of you during Wednesday, the exception being the

1:18:57 > 1:19:01north-east of Scotland. A fine day, with some sunny spells. Elsewhere,

1:19:01 > 1:19:05some sunshine and showers for tomorrow. Some of those heavy with

1:19:05 > 1:19:09hail and thunder, a little bit fresher than it would be today,

1:19:09 > 1:19:12given the wind direction. Wednesday night into Thursday a frost for some

1:19:12 > 1:19:16in Scotland but another way weather system set to work its way in and

1:19:16 > 1:19:20that will bring more wet weather the Thursday, especially across the

1:19:20 > 1:19:24southern half of England and Wales. Wet and windy around in this

1:19:24 > 1:19:26channel, rain spreading its way northwards and eastwards later in

1:19:26 > 1:19:31the day. And a quick heads up the end of the week. It is set to turn

1:19:31 > 1:19:35colder once again, especially as we head into the weekend. Thank you

1:19:35 > 1:19:41both.So how bad is storm Eleanor going to be, do you think?Luckily

1:19:41 > 1:19:46most of it goes through during the night but it is set to cause some

1:19:46 > 1:19:48transport disruption. Some good cross winds overnight across the M6

1:19:48 > 1:19:52on the A1. There will be some problems and damage around in the

1:19:52 > 1:19:57morning. Nothing overly severe or untoward for this time of year.Will

1:19:57 > 1:20:01we see any clear skies and sunshine, bright winter weather soon?This

1:20:01 > 1:20:06weekend, it looks like. Some pretty cold winds will return, and some

1:20:06 > 1:20:10snow flurries around to the north and east of the country. So one

1:20:10 > 1:20:14thing to watch.Thank you very much, we will hold out

1:20:14 > 1:20:15thing to watch.Thank you very much, we will hold out for that.The

1:20:15 > 1:20:20trouble is, it is only Tuesday. And it is the second of January. Thank

1:20:20 > 1:20:25you for joining us on BBC Breakfast as life returns to normal. Lots of

1:20:25 > 1:20:29people going back to school, going back to work today. But there is one

1:20:29 > 1:20:34story we have covered in the last days or so, which is all too

1:20:34 > 1:20:35familiar.

1:20:35 > 1:20:37It is an all-too-familiar story which sadly resonates

1:20:37 > 1:20:38on the streets of London.

1:20:38 > 1:20:40While thousands of people celebrated the new year,

1:20:40 > 1:20:43four young men were stabbed to death in unrelated attacks.

1:20:43 > 1:20:46A fifth remains in a critical condition after a separate incident

1:20:46 > 1:20:47on New Year's Day.

1:20:47 > 1:20:51It brings the total number of deaths from knife crime in the capital last

1:20:51 > 1:20:52year to 80.

1:20:52 > 1:20:55Our reporter Ben Ando has more.

1:20:55 > 1:20:57Late morning, Enfield, North London - the victim aged 18.

1:20:57 > 1:21:01Early evening, West Ham - the victim 20 years old.

1:21:01 > 1:21:05Three hours later, Tulse Hill, south London -

1:21:05 > 1:21:07a teenager of 17.

1:21:07 > 1:21:10And then, in the early hours of New Year's Day,

1:21:10 > 1:21:12a 20-year-old man killed in Old Street.

1:21:12 > 1:21:14All four stabbed to death, but according to the police,

1:21:14 > 1:21:21none of the murders are linked.

1:21:21 > 1:21:24The three murders before midnight take the total number of fatal

1:21:24 > 1:21:26stabbings in London for 2017 to 80.

1:21:26 > 1:21:28That compares with 60 in 2016.

1:21:28 > 1:21:30Police say the reasons for the increase are complex,

1:21:30 > 1:21:33but it underlines the importance of stop-and-search.

1:21:33 > 1:21:35My mum needs me alive.

1:21:35 > 1:21:37She needs me alive.

1:21:37 > 1:21:40In November, a campaign to convince teenagers not to carry

1:21:40 > 1:21:41knives was launched.

1:21:41 > 1:21:43London needs me alive.

1:21:43 > 1:21:46One campaigner who lost a son to knife crime says youngsters need

1:21:46 > 1:21:48more help to make the right choice.

1:21:48 > 1:21:51So I don't carry a knife.

1:21:51 > 1:21:54They are living in total fear.

1:21:54 > 1:21:56They weren't born killers.

1:21:56 > 1:21:58They didn't just become like that.

1:21:58 > 1:22:01It's a process.

1:22:01 > 1:22:05And now, what we've got to do is unravel that process,

1:22:05 > 1:22:10stage by stage by stage, to get to the core of the individual,

1:22:10 > 1:22:13which is the state of their heart and the state of their mindset.

1:22:13 > 1:22:17As work goes on at the scene of the first knife killing of 2018,

1:22:17 > 1:22:19the question is, will this worrying trend continue?

1:22:19 > 1:22:21Ben Ando, BBC News, South London.

1:22:21 > 1:22:23Joining us down the line from our London newsroom

1:22:23 > 1:22:26is Leroy Logan, a former superintendent with the Met Police,

1:22:26 > 1:22:31and who now runs the knife crime charity Voyage Youth.

1:22:31 > 1:22:35Thank you so much for joining us this morning. And what depressing

1:22:35 > 1:22:41figures to have two put to you. I mean, four deaths over the weekend,

1:22:41 > 1:22:4680 across the year in London. Does that surprise you in anyway?No,

1:22:46 > 1:22:51sadly not. And I just want to offer our condolences for the people have

1:22:51 > 1:22:55lost loved ones in the last couple of days. No, it is not. It has been

1:22:55 > 1:23:00going for a number of years, and I think it is a cause, you know, there

1:23:00 > 1:23:04is a definite shift in how young people get numbed to all sorts of

1:23:04 > 1:23:08injuries and stabbings. They fear that they are better protect did if

1:23:08 > 1:23:12they carry a knife, and they are not. And they need to be educated,

1:23:12 > 1:23:16and they need to be at the centre of any partnership work to prevent

1:23:16 > 1:23:20anyone just thinking that, you know, they can arrest their way out of

1:23:20 > 1:23:24this problem. Those in authority are in denial. They need to understand

1:23:24 > 1:23:30that prevention is better than cure. There has to be very specific,

1:23:30 > 1:23:34culturally sensitive, culturally intelligent, intervention and

1:23:34 > 1:23:37prevention programmes, and not just believing they can arrest their way

1:23:37 > 1:23:42out of this problem.Culturally sensitive intervention programmes,

1:23:42 > 1:23:46what does that mean practically? What sorts of things are we talking

1:23:46 > 1:23:49about? Give me an example of something which is happening which

1:23:49 > 1:23:52you are involved in which can address this?Well, it means knowing

1:23:52 > 1:23:57the young people you are dealing with, not making assumptions. There

1:23:57 > 1:24:00is a big narrative about anyone involved in gangs has got to be

1:24:00 > 1:24:04involved in violence. Not necessarily. It could be all sorts

1:24:04 > 1:24:07of issues that are happening in the home. They might be all sorts of

1:24:07 > 1:24:13issues on the streets, how they have been groomed. So it is knowing the

1:24:13 > 1:24:16target group of young people you are working with. And don't assume it is

1:24:16 > 1:24:22one size fits all. It has to be working in a sustainable way. We

1:24:22 > 1:24:26need to fund those grassroots organisations that know the young

1:24:26 > 1:24:30people, those youth workers. And we also need to beef up the number of

1:24:30 > 1:24:37officers used to be on safe Labour teams, those officers who are

1:24:37 > 1:24:43ring-fenced to know their community and work closely with them. And move

1:24:43 > 1:24:49away from this crime model and more to the public health approach. I am

1:24:49 > 1:24:54chairing a London board that works with the youth violence commission

1:24:54 > 1:24:58to look at how we do this holistically, define the problem,

1:24:58 > 1:25:03proper needs analysis, proper surveys, to look at how we develop

1:25:03 > 1:25:06strategies which are sustainable and relevant to get the impact we all

1:25:06 > 1:25:11want.It seems there is an absolutely desperate need. It is not

1:25:11 > 1:25:14just London, this is happening in towns and cities across the country,

1:25:14 > 1:25:18but the figures in London are so stark. I come back to them, 60

1:25:18 > 1:25:25deaths in the capital in 2016, eight he deaths in 2017. Why the jump? How

1:25:25 > 1:25:29can you get an increase that big year-on-year? What is going on?I

1:25:29 > 1:25:33think it is because we are not getting to the heart of the problem.

1:25:33 > 1:25:36Those in authority at responding from one critical matter to another,

1:25:36 > 1:25:40one crisis to another. They are not really getting to the heart of the

1:25:40 > 1:25:44issue and that is why the youth violence commission I am working

1:25:44 > 1:25:47with is doing a survey starting this month in partnership with Warwick

1:25:47 > 1:25:51University to see what are those real issues. Is it trauma at home,

1:25:51 > 1:25:56trauma in the street? Are they being groomed to believe they can use a

1:25:56 > 1:26:00knife, not realising they are more at risk of being a victim of a knife

1:26:00 > 1:26:03crime than using the knife. An understanding the impact of

1:26:03 > 1:26:09policing. If young people don't have trust in contact with police and not

1:26:09 > 1:26:12the right kind of police officers in their neighbourhoods, they can be

1:26:12 > 1:26:15susceptible to grooming by those people who are haters, who get

1:26:15 > 1:26:19people to say use a knife and don't worry about the authorities, we will

1:26:19 > 1:26:24deal with it streetwise. And that sort of street justice.You were a

1:26:24 > 1:26:28police officer for 30 years on the streets, and seeing this for real. I

1:26:28 > 1:26:32mean, it seems like we talk about surveys, we are talking about

1:26:32 > 1:26:36interventional trying to come up with a new plant. It sounds like you

1:26:36 > 1:26:40feel that we just don't know how to deal with this as a society. We

1:26:40 > 1:26:45haven't got a plan at the moment. -- plan.I think there are models which

1:26:45 > 1:26:50can be used, Glasgow have a violence reduction unit and are working with

1:26:50 > 1:26:54statutory organisations. It is a public health approach, not just an

1:26:54 > 1:26:56enforcement approach. You have to recognise that it can't be just

1:26:56 > 1:27:01enforcement agencies on the road. They have to work closely with

1:27:01 > 1:27:05social services, educational services, health services. Working

1:27:05 > 1:27:09with the community, with grassroots organisations. We got to build our

1:27:09 > 1:27:12proactivity to understand where these things are happening, and not

1:27:12 > 1:27:17just reacting. We have got to be part of the community, where young

1:27:17 > 1:27:21people start to trust offices, and making sure that the officers are

1:27:21 > 1:27:27there for them, not when... You know, it is not a 9-to-5, weekends

1:27:27 > 1:27:31off. They have to be there for them, especially when they are being

1:27:31 > 1:27:34groomed on a day-to-day basis.And queue for joining us on Breakfast

1:27:34 > 1:27:39this morning. -- thank you.

1:27:39 > 1:27:41You are watching Breakfast from BBC News.

1:27:41 > 1:27:44Still to come this morning: This picture of Dawn Nisbet finishing

1:27:44 > 1:27:47a parkrun, last and ten minutes behind everyone else,

1:27:47 > 1:27:48became a social media sensation.

1:27:48 > 1:27:51She will tell us why, after being inactive for 17 years,

1:27:51 > 1:27:56she has signed up for her first half-marathon.

1:27:56 > 1:31:26Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are.

1:31:26 > 1:31:32Hello, this is Breakfast with Jon Kay and Rachel Burden.

1:31:32 > 1:31:36Here it is a summoning of the main stories from BBC News.

1:31:36 > 1:31:39The biggest increase in rail fares in five years comes into force this

1:31:39 > 1:31:41morning, prompting protests at several stations as many

1:31:41 > 1:31:44commuters return to work after the Christmas break.

1:31:44 > 1:31:47In some cases, travellers will find themselves paying more than £100

1:31:47 > 1:31:47extra a year.

1:31:47 > 1:31:50The government says they're investing more in faster,

1:31:50 > 1:31:53more reliable trains.

1:31:53 > 1:31:59Campaigners warn the rise is pricing ordinary people off the railways.

1:31:59 > 1:32:06I think this fare rise really throws the spotlight on value for money.

1:32:06 > 1:32:08Passengers want to see a more reliable train service,

1:32:08 > 1:32:12they want to see a better chance of getting a seat and better

1:32:12 > 1:32:14information during disruption and the train companies

1:32:14 > 1:32:17can help to take the sting out of this by offering direct debit

1:32:17 > 1:32:20payments for annual season tickets and help passengers pay for this big

1:32:20 > 1:32:21lump sum.

1:32:21 > 1:32:24Parents are being urged to give their children no more

1:32:24 > 1:32:27than two sugary snacks a day, to help safeguard their health.

1:32:27 > 1:32:29Public Health England says the snacks should not exceed

1:32:29 > 1:32:30100 calories each.

1:32:30 > 1:32:33The advice is being given after it's emerged primary school children

1:32:33 > 1:32:36are consuming three times more sugar than the recommended limit.

1:32:36 > 1:32:37The Foreign Secretary, Boris Johnson, has called

1:32:37 > 1:32:40for a meaningful debate in Iran, where 13 people have been

1:32:40 > 1:32:42killed in protests since Thursday.

1:32:42 > 1:32:44Demonstrators, who are angry about living standards,

1:32:44 > 1:32:46attacked police stations late into the night as they took

1:32:46 > 1:32:49to the streets in a number of cities.

1:32:49 > 1:32:51President Hassan Rouhani call the protests an opportunity,

1:32:51 > 1:33:00not a threat but vowed to crack down on lawbreakers.

1:33:00 > 1:33:03South Korea has offered high level talks with North Korea to discuss

1:33:03 > 1:33:05participation in the 2018 Winter Olympic Games.

1:33:05 > 1:33:08The South Korean President says it's a groundbreaking chance to move

1:33:08 > 1:33:11towards peace, and has suggesting meeting as early

1:33:11 > 1:33:12as the ninth of January.

1:33:12 > 1:33:22It would be the first time the sides have met in more than two years.

1:33:22 > 1:33:24More than 300 women from Hollywood's entertainment industry have launched

1:33:24 > 1:33:27an initiative to tackle sexual harassment in workplaces.

1:33:27 > 1:33:29The campaign called Time's Up includes includes Hollywood stars

1:33:29 > 1:33:31such as Meryl Streep and Jennifer Lawrence.

1:33:31 > 1:33:40It will provide legal support for women and men who suffer abuse.

1:33:40 > 1:33:4380 people were stabbed to death in London last year,

1:33:43 > 1:33:45a rise of a third compared to 2016.

1:33:45 > 1:33:48The figures come as police investigate the murders of four

1:33:48 > 1:33:50young man in the capital who were stabbed in unrelated

1:33:50 > 1:33:52incidents over a 24-hour period.

1:33:52 > 1:33:54The youngest victim was 17 years old.

1:33:54 > 1:33:55So far detectives have arrested six people

1:33:55 > 1:34:04in connection with their enquiries.

1:34:04 > 1:34:06A seaplane that crashed and killed six people,

1:34:06 > 1:34:08including five Britons, is expected to be raised

1:34:08 > 1:34:11from an Australian river this week so it can be forensically examined.

1:34:11 > 1:34:13Richard Cousins, who ran a multi-billion pound catering

1:34:13 > 1:34:16company, was killed along with his two sons,

1:34:16 > 1:34:17his fiancee, her daughter and the pilot.

1:34:17 > 1:34:20Aviation experts believe the planed stalled before crashing

1:34:20 > 1:34:29into the river.

1:34:29 > 1:34:32An investigation's under way into the cause of a fire

1:34:32 > 1:34:35which destroyed up to 1400 vehicles in a car park in Liverpool.

1:34:35 > 1:34:38The blaze at King's Dock, next to Liverpool's Echo Arena,

1:34:38 > 1:34:42is said to have spread after one vehicle caught fire on New Year's

1:34:42 > 1:34:42Eve.

1:34:42 > 1:34:44Firefighters worked through the night and many people

1:34:44 > 1:34:46were forced into temporary accommodation as nearby

1:34:46 > 1:34:47buildings were evacuated.

1:34:47 > 1:35:02No-one was injured.

1:35:02 > 1:35:07It was a challenging incident, let's be under no illusions about that,

1:35:07 > 1:35:14the crews worked very hard indeed to prevent the spread of this fire. We

1:35:14 > 1:35:20protected the arena and the surrounding hotels, so I am very

1:35:20 > 1:35:23proud of the actions of our crews.

1:35:23 > 1:35:26Millions of people are at risk of falling into debt this month

1:35:26 > 1:35:28as a result of Christmas spending.

1:35:28 > 1:35:30Research carried out by the Money Advice Trust suggests

1:35:30 > 1:35:34one in six people across Britain will fall behind on payments this

1:35:34 > 1:35:37month, with many saying they failed to budget properly for extra

1:35:37 > 1:35:44spending at Christmas.

1:35:44 > 1:35:51Saul wallets to start the year with.

1:35:51 > 1:35:55Over Christmas and New Year.Over dark. Yes.

1:35:55 > 1:35:57There was no fairytale ending for the 16-time

1:35:57 > 1:36:00Darts World Champion Phil 'The Power' Taylor, as he retired

1:36:00 > 1:36:03with a defeat in this years final to first-time winner Rob Cross.

1:36:03 > 1:36:06The former electrician from Hastings was sensational throughout,

1:36:06 > 1:36:08and went 3-0 ahead with this 153 checkout.

1:36:08 > 1:36:09Taylor nearly sealed his last appearance

1:36:09 > 1:36:13with a 9-dart finish but missed out by the smallest of margins.

1:36:13 > 1:36:16But there was no let-up from Cross, he took the title

1:36:16 > 1:36:18at Alexandra Palace in London by 7-2.

1:36:18 > 1:36:21Cross was born in the very same year Taylor won his first world title,

1:36:21 > 1:36:28in 1990.

1:36:28 > 1:36:31Manchester United are back up to second in the Premier League

1:36:31 > 1:36:33table after their first win in four matches.

1:36:33 > 1:36:37A 2-0 victory over Everton at Goodison Park.

1:36:37 > 1:36:40It was decided by two special finishes as well,

1:36:40 > 1:36:42the opener from Antony Martial, who combined with his France

1:36:42 > 1:36:44international teammate Paul Pogba.

1:36:44 > 1:36:47Man of the match Pogba was also involved as Jesse Lingard scored

1:36:47 > 1:36:50an excellent solo goal to hand Sam Allardyce a second

1:36:50 > 1:36:55defeat of the week.

1:36:55 > 1:37:03They were very good, and in this Christmas period we didn't win every

1:37:03 > 1:37:11match, but we didn't lose one, and I think that shows the character of

1:37:11 > 1:37:21the players. Criticism is criticism.

1:37:21 > 1:37:24The pressure will increase on Stoke City manager Mark Hughes

1:37:24 > 1:37:26after their 1-0 defeat at home to Newcastle.

1:37:26 > 1:37:28Perez got the winner in the second half.

1:37:28 > 1:37:31Stoke drop to 16th, two points above the relegation zone,

1:37:31 > 1:37:34having won only two of their last 12 games.

1:37:34 > 1:37:37The key is, is everybody sticks together and we get on with it.

1:37:37 > 1:37:40It is no good feeling sorry for ourselves and looking to blame

1:37:40 > 1:37:41people.

1:37:41 > 1:37:43I think we just need to take it on board,

1:37:43 > 1:37:46take responsibility for what we are doing here and don't

1:37:46 > 1:37:47be cowed by it.

1:37:47 > 1:37:49Get on with it.

1:37:49 > 1:37:52And are you confident that you can do it, and quickly?

1:37:52 > 1:37:55Well, who else is going to do it?

1:37:55 > 1:37:58In terms of the knowledge of this group, the time I have been

1:37:58 > 1:38:03here, that I am best to do that, so we just need to be allowed to get

1:38:03 > 1:38:04on with our job.

1:38:04 > 1:38:07That is what we will do, we are getting back together

1:38:07 > 1:38:08and we go again.

1:38:08 > 1:38:12He really does want to get on with it, doesn't it? Kyle Abbott and is

1:38:12 > 1:38:21through to the second round of the Brisbane International tournament.

1:38:21 > 1:38:26Andy Murray has pulled out of the last couple of minutes. He is still

1:38:26 > 1:38:30troubled by a hip injury. Johanna Konta does play in second-round

1:38:30 > 1:38:35action later this morning in the women's tournament. That news about

1:38:35 > 1:38:39Murray just coming in the last couple of moments. I will bring you

1:38:39 > 1:38:42more on that in the last hour. Thank you very much.

1:38:42 > 1:38:45It's a New Year and for rail passengers that means

1:38:45 > 1:38:46a new ticket price.

1:38:46 > 1:38:48The largest average fare increase in five years comes

1:38:48 > 1:38:49into effect today.

1:38:49 > 1:38:57Steph's at London Bridge station with the details.

1:38:57 > 1:39:02What effect will that have for commuters? There are plans that

1:39:02 > 1:39:06maybe people will be put off going by train because prices have gone so

1:39:06 > 1:39:12high. You have been speaking with commuters. What is the sense among

1:39:12 > 1:39:19people?Good morning. There is a mixed view, actually. Some say that

1:39:19 > 1:39:23they really noticed the fares going up every year. Some have said that

1:39:23 > 1:39:28they can see why it is important. This train station has been

1:39:28 > 1:39:33revamped. £1 billion has been spent over the last year. It is the fourth

1:39:33 > 1:39:38busiest train station in the UK. Other passengers have said I have

1:39:38 > 1:39:42just come in on an overcrowded train and it was delayed. Very mixed

1:39:42 > 1:39:52views. People are not sure -- short of talking to me. We have Paul from

1:39:52 > 1:39:58the Rijal Delivery Group, so tell us about commuters chatting to us this

1:39:58 > 1:40:02morning -- Rail. Quite a lot of them are miffed. Do you understand why

1:40:02 > 1:40:06the prices are going up?Good morning. It is great to be here

1:40:06 > 1:40:10today. You see people wandering around looking up and seeing how

1:40:10 > 1:40:16fantastic it is. No one wants to pay more fares, obviously. What we can

1:40:16 > 1:40:20do in the industry, everyone working together, is make best use of money

1:40:20 > 1:40:25from fares, from taxpayers, so fares are leveraging more money,

1:40:25 > 1:40:29much-needed investment, from the private sector, from government to

1:40:29 > 1:40:32deliver the improvements everyone wants so we can have this sort of

1:40:32 > 1:40:36thing here is that you see today across the country.It is all very

1:40:36 > 1:40:40well to have a nice train station but if it is always overcrowded and

1:40:40 > 1:40:46late then it means nothing nothing to anyone

1:40:46 > 1:40:51late then it means nothing nothing to anyone.It next communities from

1:40:51 > 1:40:59the north of London, the south of London, totally transformed the

1:40:59 > 1:41:04reliability, it has regenerated part of London completely and all of that

1:41:04 > 1:41:06contributes to the customers' experience and to the economy

1:41:06 > 1:41:11because it is so critical for the nation.What about the rest of the

1:41:11 > 1:41:15country? A lot of money is spent in the south. What about areas of the

1:41:15 > 1:41:19north where they struggle with the service?Well, the Great North Run

1:41:19 > 1:41:25to act, and new trains introduced everywhere across the country. The

1:41:25 > 1:41:28West Country, Scotland, the north, everywhere is going to see new

1:41:28 > 1:41:32trains coming in to deliver a fantastic, better experience, and

1:41:32 > 1:41:37more services that is provided from the infrastructure as well. It is

1:41:37 > 1:41:42the whole country that will see this improvement. And this example today

1:41:42 > 1:41:46shows it can actually happen. So it is not just saying it will happen in

1:41:46 > 1:41:51future. This is really happening now. Trains are on order and people

1:41:51 > 1:41:55will see the difference.It feels like we have been talking for years

1:41:55 > 1:41:58about things getting better and then if you look at the stats with

1:41:58 > 1:42:02punctuality than it was the worst it has been in a decade in 2016. So

1:42:02 > 1:42:07when will people see a difference? This example is showing it really is

1:42:07 > 1:42:10making a difference. You are right. We have been saying things are

1:42:10 > 1:42:15coming and they are. This is one of the first symbolic changes. Those

1:42:15 > 1:42:19are the changes coming over the next 18 months really an unprecedented

1:42:19 > 1:42:24period of improvement. People are going to see. It is going to change

1:42:24 > 1:42:27customer experience and not just promises for the future.It is hard

1:42:27 > 1:42:32to stomach when you see train prices going up more than wage increases.

1:42:32 > 1:42:41For lots of people it means they have less money in their disposable

1:42:41 > 1:42:44income because they are spending so much on travelling.All we can do is

1:42:44 > 1:42:48to make best use of the money from fare payers or taxpayers and the

1:42:48 > 1:42:57best use to make the improvements. We have had decades of an -- lack of

1:42:57 > 1:43:01investment.What about train companies, people would say, can't

1:43:01 > 1:43:07they take a hit?You show the figures. 97p in the pound goes into

1:43:07 > 1:43:11improving the railway and also the growth we have seen means it enables

1:43:11 > 1:43:16further investment. It is more than just that direct contribution. There

1:43:16 > 1:43:19was further investment from taxpayers to deliver the sort of

1:43:19 > 1:43:23thing you see today.Thank you very much for your time this morning. We

1:43:23 > 1:43:27will speak with some passengers later on in the programme to get the

1:43:27 > 1:43:31different views on this topic this morning.Thank you so much. Steph,

1:43:31 > 1:43:37live in London Bridge today, the fourth busiest in the country.We

1:43:37 > 1:43:41were worried that no one was going to go to work today. It was very

1:43:41 > 1:43:46quiet. It is getting busier now. It is the second of January and you are

1:43:46 > 1:43:51watching Breakfast on BBC News. And as we have heard, passenger groups

1:43:51 > 1:43:54are staging protest in some places against the biggest increase in rail

1:43:54 > 1:44:01fares in five years.No more than two low-calorie snacks a day, the

1:44:01 > 1:44:06latest advice to parents to attempt to tackle childhood obesity.

1:44:06 > 1:44:12If the rail fare increases don't get you, the weather might, because it

1:44:12 > 1:44:17is not looking very good for the next few days.Happy thoughts. Happy

1:44:17 > 1:44:21New Year. Happy New Year, everybody. Yes, it isn't looking brilliant. If

1:44:21 > 1:44:23it isn't raining today,

1:44:23 > 1:44:24Yes, it isn't looking brilliant. If it isn't raining today, it will

1:44:24 > 1:44:28tonight. This is the scene in Luton. The cloud breaks are going the wrong

1:44:28 > 1:44:33way because this is what's coming in off the Atlantic. This area of cloud

1:44:33 > 1:44:38will bring in stormy weather. A cloud in the west producing grain

1:44:38 > 1:44:44extensively across Ireland edging mainland UK. At the end of the

1:44:44 > 1:44:48morning rush it will be into the south-west of Scotland. North-east

1:44:48 > 1:44:51Scotland begin strike with a bit of sunshine to start the day. It will

1:44:51 > 1:44:56last longer so cross Orkney & Shetland. A frost for one or two. At

1:44:56 > 1:44:59the moment in Northern Ireland it is easing off to clear spells and

1:44:59 > 1:45:03showers at nine o'clock and turning wet across north-west England, the

1:45:03 > 1:45:08Midlands. Eastern England should be dry, but increasingly cloudy. The

1:45:08 > 1:45:13rain will be heavy in north Wales. Light and patchy. Nothing heavy as

1:45:13 > 1:45:18far as rain is concerned in the south. Heavy further north. Snow for

1:45:18 > 1:45:21a time across the tops of the Pennines and into the afternoon

1:45:21 > 1:45:25across the Scottish mountains. With the gusty winds today the rain

1:45:25 > 1:45:28pushes through reasonably smartly. We will see sunshine in merry areas

1:45:28 > 1:45:35-- many areas in the afternoon. By which time more rain is pushing into

1:45:35 > 1:45:38the west and temperatures 4-6 degrees across Scotland, up around

1:45:38 > 1:45:4412 or 13 in the south. When I say it is stormy weather, it is courtesy of

1:45:44 > 1:45:50storm Eleanor first in Northern Ireland with rain spreading across

1:45:50 > 1:45:55all areas except the far north of Scotland. There are just developing

1:45:55 > 1:45:58this evening across southern parts of Northern Ireland and the stronger

1:45:58 > 1:46:03winds will transfer eastwards. Maybe the far south of Scotland, but more

1:46:03 > 1:46:06especially Cumbria, Lancashire, damaging winds of 70 to 80 mph and

1:46:06 > 1:46:10elsewhere we will see severe gales anywhere from north Wales, north

1:46:10 > 1:46:15Midlands into the borders of Scotland. Snow on the hills, rain

1:46:15 > 1:46:19elsewhere at a windy start to tomorrow morning. The worst of the

1:46:19 > 1:46:23winds get out of the way quickly then it is a Broster -- blustery

1:46:23 > 1:46:29day. Not too many showers across the south. The north-east of Scotland

1:46:29 > 1:46:33again, largely fine and dry. A little on the cool side.

1:46:33 > 1:46:39Temperatures not far from the day's values elsewhere. Then frost returns

1:46:39 > 1:46:43to Scotland in particular. Further south another west is -- weather

1:46:43 > 1:46:47system is set to push in. It has been one of those weeks for Wales

1:46:47 > 1:46:51and Northern Ireland. Wet and windy weather through the day. The

1:46:51 > 1:46:54strongest went through the English Channel. North and east will be dry

1:46:54 > 1:46:58and bright through much of the day. A little bit call here. From

1:46:58 > 1:47:01Thursday onwards it is cooler still with most places seem temperatures

1:47:01 > 1:47:09drop.Thank you very much.

1:47:09 > 1:47:14Lots of weather which is always a good excuse not to go out for a run

1:47:14 > 1:47:18and do any exercise. If you have made a New Year's resolution to do

1:47:18 > 1:47:21any exercise, that is the excuse.

1:47:21 > 1:47:24Lots of us will have made a New Year resolution to do more exercise,

1:47:24 > 1:47:27but actually taking the first steps can be daunting.

1:47:27 > 1:47:29So, if you need a bit of inspiration, how

1:47:29 > 1:47:30about this picture?

1:47:30 > 1:47:33This is Dawn Nisbet celebrating as she completed her local parkrun.

1:47:33 > 1:47:36She came last, and ten minutes behind everyone else,

1:47:36 > 1:47:38and was shared thousands of times on social media.

1:47:38 > 1:47:41Dawn has now run more than 500km over the last year,

1:47:41 > 1:47:44and she is taking part in a new initiative from the mental

1:47:44 > 1:47:47health charity Mind called Run Every Day, which tries

1:47:47 > 1:47:50to encourage people to take up some form of daily exercise.

1:47:50 > 1:48:01She joins us now.

1:48:01 > 1:48:05It is actually called RED January. So how did it all began for you?

1:48:05 > 1:48:11When did you get out and on your feet and start to run?So my stepmum

1:48:11 > 1:48:15was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in March of last year, and at that

1:48:15 > 1:48:21point I had been inactive for a long time and was seven stone overweight

1:48:21 > 1:48:29but I wanted to do the Race For Life. It wasn't about getting more

1:48:29 > 1:48:33active or getting thin, it was just about supporting her. So I started

1:48:33 > 1:48:37running usually in the dark, where people couldn't see me. It wasn't

1:48:37 > 1:48:41easy, I will be honest. So I started from there, really.And the

1:48:41 > 1:48:45photograph which has made you famous around the world, that was just a

1:48:45 > 1:48:51chance moment, wasn't it?Yes, it was my six Park run, and as I

1:48:51 > 1:48:55crossed the finish line, the Marshall said put your arms up, be

1:48:55 > 1:49:01proud. I put my arms up and laughed, and it has been a bit mad, really. I

1:49:01 > 1:49:05am now very proud of that photo. When I first saw it I was a bit

1:49:05 > 1:49:09embarrassed, because it is... You know, I am a big girl, and it is

1:49:09 > 1:49:14sweaty. But I am pretty proud of it now, that it shows what I have

1:49:14 > 1:49:17achieved. It is my profile picture on Twitter and Facebook, because I

1:49:17 > 1:49:22look at it and it reminds me what I have done.It is so important to see

1:49:22 > 1:49:26positive images like that of women of all shapes and sizes. And it is

1:49:26 > 1:49:30about the kind of sweat and accepting our bodies as they are.

1:49:30 > 1:49:34But finding the joy in it. And obviously you did find that joy. How

1:49:34 > 1:49:39long did that take? Before you thought I am really enjoying this?

1:49:39 > 1:49:43Probably a couple of months, really. To start with it was really hard,

1:49:43 > 1:49:48from having done nothing.Just tell us how you then started for the

1:49:48 > 1:49:51first time, literally getting off the sofa, putting on a pair of

1:49:51 > 1:49:56trainers. Do you walk it? Do you have a slow jog?So the biggest

1:49:56 > 1:49:59thing is actually getting out in your activewear, being in public,

1:49:59 > 1:50:04where people can see you. It very much started as a walk, but then I

1:50:04 > 1:50:09would look for the next lamppost and run to that, and you get to that and

1:50:09 > 1:50:13you think I have achieved that, got a carry on a little bit longer. It

1:50:13 > 1:50:16gives you something to map your improvement each time. It can be a

1:50:16 > 1:50:21bit boring, but if you take the same route as you start out, you can see

1:50:21 > 1:50:26your own improvement.Lamppost to lamppost.Yes, yes.And so knowing

1:50:26 > 1:50:32that that picture of you has not just inspired you to keep going but

1:50:32 > 1:50:36has inspired so many other people to run around the block or around the

1:50:36 > 1:50:40world, it is quite a responsibility you have got, isn't it?I am quite a

1:50:40 > 1:50:45shy person, so it has taken a lot for me, like I say, when I first saw

1:50:45 > 1:50:49the picture I was a bit embarrassed by it, but I saw the Facebook group

1:50:49 > 1:50:53of like-minded women out there trying to find ways to fit running

1:50:53 > 1:50:58around their busy lives, and it was them who said if you can be brave

1:50:58 > 1:51:01and share that picture, the impact it can have on other people... So I

1:51:01 > 1:51:06have had to park my shyness to come and chat to my yourselves, and be on

1:51:06 > 1:51:10the radio, and things like that. When I see the messages from people

1:51:10 > 1:51:14about how it has inspired them and the impact it has had on them, that

1:51:14 > 1:51:19makes me want to do more as well.I can't believe that having celebrated

1:51:19 > 1:51:23the fact that you have got up off the sofa we have brought you back on

1:51:23 > 1:51:27the sofa. So you are now in this run, RED January, if you take

1:51:27 > 1:51:31yourself back to where you were when you started this, running every day

1:51:31 > 1:51:35could be a bit dangerous, couldn't it, for people if they have not

1:51:35 > 1:51:39exercised for a while? It can be exerting, it can put pressure on

1:51:39 > 1:51:43your body.I think it is called run everyday January, and a lot of

1:51:43 > 1:51:49people are running every day, but Mind are promoting the impact that

1:51:49 > 1:51:53physical activity can have on your physical and mental well-being. So I

1:51:53 > 1:51:57will run a lot, but there are other days when I am going horseriding,

1:51:57 > 1:52:02all my daughter does Jr Park run and we walk a lot of that, so it will be

1:52:02 > 1:52:06a mixture of a lot of physical activity. Anyone interested in doing

1:52:06 > 1:52:10it, it is just about getting out there every day.It might be running

1:52:10 > 1:52:15after the kids for 20 minutes, for example.Things that you didn't do

1:52:15 > 1:52:22before, in December when we are eating too many mince pies, it has

1:52:22 > 1:52:27massive benefits for your physical and mental well-being.Thank you for

1:52:27 > 1:52:31sharing your story with us, and I am sure you have inspired a lot of

1:52:31 > 1:52:38people. Do you like a holiday?When I am on holiday I find the local

1:52:38 > 1:52:42park runs, the first thing I pack now is by trainers, which again,

1:52:42 > 1:52:46this time last year...I might have an alternative for you. We were

1:52:46 > 1:52:50talking about holidays, lots of people thinking about sunshine and

1:52:50 > 1:52:54lying on the beach. What about this for a holiday? Running a bookshop.

1:52:54 > 1:52:58Apparently it is what some holidaymakers are being given the

1:52:58 > 1:53:01chance to do.

1:53:01 > 1:53:04It is proving so popular, the shop is booked solidly

1:53:04 > 1:53:06until 2020, and the concept could soon be branching

1:53:06 > 1:53:07out into Asia.

1:53:07 > 1:53:13Our Scotland correspondent Lorna Gordon has been for a browse.

1:53:13 > 1:53:16Between the hills and the sea in south-west Scotland is a small

1:53:16 > 1:53:18town where they like their books a lot.

1:53:18 > 1:53:21Wigtown is Scotland's National Book Town, and among the many shops here,

1:53:21 > 1:53:25one is available to rent for a week at a time.

1:53:25 > 1:53:28It is run by enthusiasts who want to be surrounded by books,

1:53:28 > 1:53:30while trying their hand at selling some as well.

1:53:30 > 1:53:34Right, Helen McDonald...

1:53:34 > 1:53:36Alison Drury is a police officer, but not this week.

1:53:36 > 1:53:39Instead, she is stacking bookshelves and shifting stock.

1:53:39 > 1:53:42You are paying for the privilege of running a bookshop for a week.

1:53:42 > 1:53:49What do your friends make of it?

1:53:49 > 1:53:50A bit of a mixture.

1:53:50 > 1:53:53I think some of them think that I'm a bit eccentric,

1:53:53 > 1:54:02and think it's a very strange thing to do.

1:54:02 > 1:54:05By the same token, I have some friends who think it's extremely

1:54:05 > 1:54:08exciting, and are excited for me, and a bit envious.

1:54:08 > 1:54:10Have you been enjoying it?

1:54:10 > 1:54:12I have. You can tell, can't you?

1:54:12 > 1:54:14The temporary book store boss has free rein.

1:54:14 > 1:54:16Displays can change, so can the promotions.

1:54:16 > 1:54:19The chance to run a bookshop for a week or two has proved popular.

1:54:19 > 1:54:26People have come from as far away as New Zealand,

1:54:26 > 1:54:29North America and South Korea to run this place.

1:54:29 > 1:54:32There was a couple in their 80s who came on honeymoon,

1:54:32 > 1:54:35and others who liked the town so much that they stayed.

1:54:35 > 1:54:37This shop, which once came close to closure,

1:54:37 > 1:54:39turned around by those who have a dream of running

1:54:39 > 1:54:42a bookshop, and want the chance to test it out.

1:54:42 > 1:54:45I think in everyone's life you have that "what if" voice.

1:54:45 > 1:54:48What if I just owned a bookshop by the sea in Scotland?

1:54:48 > 1:54:51We want to give people the chance to do it.

1:54:51 > 1:54:54This is actual, real virtual reality, where you can come and be

1:54:54 > 1:54:58in a bookshop, and feel the cold and read the books and enjoy

1:54:58 > 1:55:01the community, and kind of have little surprises and an adventure

1:55:01 > 1:55:02along the way.

1:55:02 > 1:55:04And, if those who have come on their bookshop holiday

1:55:04 > 1:55:07are looking for ideas, with Wigtown boasting 14 bookshops,

1:55:07 > 1:55:09there is plenty here to inspire.

1:55:09 > 1:55:11We love our bookshops here, we love our books.

1:55:11 > 1:55:14And we've even got people coming from far and wide to run

1:55:14 > 1:55:15a bookshop in Wigtown.

1:55:15 > 1:55:17Imagine that.

1:55:17 > 1:55:19It sounds crazy idea, but what a fantastic thing

1:55:19 > 1:55:21for Wigtown, opening Wigtown up to the world,

1:55:21 > 1:55:29and encouraging people to come and share our love for books.

1:55:29 > 1:55:32That passion for selling books may be spreading.

1:55:32 > 1:55:35There is interest from a Chinese firm looking to open its own version

1:55:35 > 1:55:37of The Open Book holiday business.

1:55:37 > 1:55:40So successful has this Scottish one being, it is booked up

1:55:40 > 1:55:56for the next two years.

1:55:56 > 1:56:01It looks like a very beautiful village.Yes, the bookshop which is

1:56:01 > 1:56:07fully booked. Would you do it?No. I think if I go on holiday I just want

1:56:07 > 1:56:12to sleep and relax.Read a book, not sell books.

1:56:12 > 1:59:31Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are.

1:59:31 > 1:59:34Now, though, it is back to John and Rachel.

1:59:34 > 1:59:36Bye for now.

1:59:41 > 1:59:43Hello, this is Breakfast, with Rachel Burden and Jon Kay.

1:59:46 > 1:59:49From today, rail passengers face the biggest fare rise in five years.

1:59:49 > 1:59:52Many season tickets have gone up by more than £100.

1:59:52 > 1:59:53Campaigners warn that people are being priced

1:59:53 > 1:59:59out of getting to work.

1:59:59 > 2:00:02Good morning. From the newly revamped London

2:00:02 > 2:00:03Good morning. From the newly revamped London Bridge station,

2:00:03 > 2:00:06ministers say that increases needed to help modernise the network. I

2:00:06 > 2:00:12will be talking to passengers about whether they agree.

2:00:18 > 2:00:21Good morning, it's Tuesday, 2nd January.

2:00:38 > 2:00:40It's reported that nine more people have died overnight.

2:00:40 > 2:00:43A seaplane that crashed and killed six people,

2:00:43 > 2:00:45including five Britons, will be raised from an Australian

2:00:45 > 2:00:50river to be forensically examined.
