Hello - this is Breakfast,
with Louise Minchin and Dan Walker. | 0:00:07 | 0:00:12 | |
Hundreds of drivers stranded
overnight as heavy snow sweeps | 0:00:12 | 0:00:15 | |
across the UK. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:17 | |
Mountain rescue teams are drafted | 0:00:17 | 0:00:20 | |
in as blizzard conditions leave
motorists stuck for up to 8 hours | 0:00:20 | 0:00:24 | |
on the M74 in Scotland. | 0:00:24 | 0:00:31 | |
Good morning - it's
Wednesday 17th January. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:33 | |
Good morning - it's
Wednesday 17th January. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:53 | |
Also this morning: | 0:00:53 | 0:00:55 | |
More nurses are quitting the NHS
in England than joining. | 0:00:55 | 0:00:58 | |
Senior nurses warn that too many
staff are demoralised by the job. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:01 | |
Fit for office. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:02 | |
Donald Trump passes his medical
as the White House doctor | 0:01:02 | 0:01:05 | |
says his "cognitive
ability" is normal. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:09 | |
Carillion owed more than a billion
pounds when it went bust - | 0:01:09 | 0:01:12 | |
but now we didn't even have enough
cash for 5% of the bill. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:16 | |
This morning I'm looking at why big
businesses can get away | 0:01:16 | 0:01:19 | |
with making late payment. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:27 | |
The first goal is awarded by the
video assistant referee. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:37 | |
And: as the RAF celebrates its 100th
anniversary, the last | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
of the Dambusters tells us
about his life in the skies. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:47 | |
Snow and ice are causing serious
problems on roads across Scotland, | 0:01:47 | 0:01:52 | |
Northern Ireland and northern
England with drivers stranded in | 0:01:52 | 0:01:54 | |
long queues. Rescue teams are
helping trapped motorists and people | 0:01:54 | 0:02:00 | |
in dumb freeze and Galloway are
being advised not to drive. Problems | 0:02:00 | 0:02:05 | |
in Northern Ireland with schools
closed entrance port affected. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:11 | |
Rescuing the driver trapped in our
cars overnight on the main motorway | 0:02:11 | 0:02:15 | |
between England and Scotland. Heavy
snow meant treacherous conditions | 0:02:15 | 0:02:18 | |
for the emergency services on the
M74. The weather kept some motorists | 0:02:18 | 0:02:24 | |
in freezing cars for more than eight
hours. Very little has been | 0:02:24 | 0:02:29 | |
happening, I'm afraid. With barely
moved. I'm not that far away from | 0:02:29 | 0:02:33 | |
where I was. In total, very little
movement. On the Isle of Skye, the | 0:02:33 | 0:02:40 | |
main road was closed for several
hours in both directions by | 0:02:40 | 0:02:43 | |
jackknifed lorry. To buses carrying
pupils were forced to return to | 0:02:43 | 0:02:48 | |
school for the night. Dozens of
schools closed yesterday across | 0:02:48 | 0:02:53 | |
Scotland affecting thousands of
children. But it wasn't all doom and | 0:02:53 | 0:02:58 | |
gloom. In Selkirk, the scene was
worthy of a seasonal postcard with | 0:02:58 | 0:03:04 | |
people living on higher ground
witnessing the heavy snowfall. In | 0:03:04 | 0:03:09 | |
dumb freeze, snowploughs worked
around the clock to keep motorists | 0:03:09 | 0:03:12 | |
moving. This was the picture in
Glasgow. And in Edinburgh, only the | 0:03:12 | 0:03:18 | |
most determined ventured out in our
cars. Grifters have been out through | 0:03:18 | 0:03:23 | |
the night to avoid a repeat of the
problems for drivers on the M74 but | 0:03:23 | 0:03:28 | |
police Scotland say if you can avoid
travelling this morning, you should | 0:03:28 | 0:03:32 | |
do so. Ian Palmer, BBC News. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:35 | |
Let's speak now to Kenneth Anderson,
who's been stuck in his car | 0:03:35 | 0:03:38 | |
on the M74 since 8
o'clock last night. | 0:03:38 | 0:03:42 | |
Understand you arrived home about
ten minutes ago. Tell us about your | 0:03:42 | 0:03:46 | |
night. It's been absolutely chaotic.
We left Bromley at about 12 o'clock | 0:03:46 | 0:03:54 | |
yesterday and have only just arrived
back in Glasgow just now. We | 0:03:54 | 0:04:02 | |
anticipated about 5:30pm yesterday,
not this morning. Tells about the | 0:04:02 | 0:04:07 | |
conditions. At what point did you
think you could be stuck? At about | 0:04:07 | 0:04:13 | |
eight o'clock yesterday evening, the
traffic on the M74 had just gotten | 0:04:13 | 0:04:20 | |
really bad. It is about eight or
nine hours to get moving after that | 0:04:20 | 0:04:24 | |
point. We were getting little
information. We were going to be | 0:04:24 | 0:04:31 | |
stuck there overnight and even
through to now. What did you have | 0:04:31 | 0:04:34 | |
with you? People say to prepare this
-- about this sort of weather, take | 0:04:34 | 0:04:41 | |
a spade, some food, extra clothing.
We had just returned from a | 0:04:41 | 0:04:46 | |
christening so we had a car full of
clothes and our pet dog. She had a | 0:04:46 | 0:04:53 | |
less than fantastic time. Whether
loads of other people on the road? | 0:04:53 | 0:04:59 | |
Did you stay in the vehicle? What
were you told by emergency services? | 0:04:59 | 0:05:05 | |
We were told nothing other than what
we could glean from Twitter. | 0:05:05 | 0:05:10 | |
Understand mountain rescue was out
but we never saw them. As the other | 0:05:10 | 0:05:14 | |
motorists, we only spoke to one of
them. Plenty of cars driving up the | 0:05:14 | 0:05:21 | |
hard shoulder. We never wanted to
leave the vehicle for fear of | 0:05:21 | 0:05:24 | |
collision. I am glad the dog is OK
as well. She is glad to be back in | 0:05:24 | 0:05:31 | |
her own bed. Get some sleep. So many
stories of people stuck out there. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:37 | |
The Met Office has issued warnings
for most of the country, | 0:05:37 | 0:05:40 | |
with many areas at risk
of snow, ice or wind. | 0:05:40 | 0:05:43 | |
Carol has the latest. | 0:05:43 | 0:05:46 | |
We have seen | 0:05:46 | 0:05:47 | |
We have seen a lot of snow as we
have been hearing through yesterday | 0:05:47 | 0:05:50 | |
and overnight. These are the kind of
depths. The Southern uplands, 37 | 0:05:50 | 0:05:56 | |
they -- 37 centimetres. | 0:05:56 | 0:06:03 | |
they -- 37 centimetres. A lot of
snow around. What's been happening | 0:06:03 | 0:06:06 | |
is it's been blowing because it's
been snow windy so there are snow | 0:06:06 | 0:06:10 | |
drifts. Also blizzard conditions.
Treacherous. Add in the risk of ice | 0:06:10 | 0:06:17 | |
again. That is another hazard to
watch out for. What you will find is | 0:06:17 | 0:06:22 | |
the wind will slowly ease in the
wintry showers will not be as heavy | 0:06:22 | 0:06:26 | |
and Scotland, Northern Ireland and
northern England. But later on | 0:06:26 | 0:06:31 | |
today, another area of low pressure
and that will introduce heavy rain | 0:06:31 | 0:06:36 | |
as it crosses the UK, especially in
the south. It will be preceded by a | 0:06:36 | 0:06:41 | |
spell of heavy snow across Northern
Ireland and northern England and | 0:06:41 | 0:06:47 | |
southern and central Scotland. It
will be very windy across the South. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:53 | |
And ice risk. Not out of the woods
yet. If you are travelling, do take | 0:06:53 | 0:06:58 | |
extra care. | 0:06:58 | 0:06:58 | |
yet. If you are travelling, do take
extra care. You will be here later | 0:06:58 | 0:07:03 | |
see you got a busy morning. Thank
you. I was coming from Sheffield. It | 0:07:03 | 0:07:10 | |
was seriously slippery on the roads.
Send us those pictures. The number | 0:07:10 | 0:07:15 | |
below. Who knew we had a WhatsApp
number. | 0:07:15 | 0:07:27 | |
If you have friends stuck there as
well, ask them to get in touch with | 0:07:40 | 0:07:44 | |
us as well. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:47 | |
More nurses left the health service
in England last year than joined - | 0:07:47 | 0:07:51 | |
the first time in 5 years
that there's been a net | 0:07:51 | 0:07:54 | |
reduction in staff. | 0:07:54 | 0:07:55 | |
BBC analysis of NHS data found that
just over 33,000 nurses left | 0:07:55 | 0:07:58 | |
the service - 3,000
more than signed up. | 0:07:58 | 0:08:00 | |
The Royal College of Nursing says
experienced staff are leaving | 0:08:00 | 0:08:03 | |
because they're demoralised,
as our health correspondent | 0:08:03 | 0:08:05 | |
Dominic Hughes reports. | 0:08:05 | 0:08:09 | |
Nursing is a profession under
pressure. Now a new analysis of | 0:08:09 | 0:08:13 | |
nurses working in the NHS in England
shows a worrying number choosing to | 0:08:13 | 0:08:18 | |
leave the profession. Last year,
more than 33,000 nurses walked away | 0:08:18 | 0:08:23 | |
from their health service jobs.
That's a 20% rise compared to four | 0:08:23 | 0:08:27 | |
years ago and those leaving
outnumber those joining. One in four | 0:08:27 | 0:08:31 | |
of those leaving are relatively
young, under 30. This has | 0:08:31 | 0:08:37 | |
potentially serious implications for
a sustainable profession. Unless we | 0:08:37 | 0:08:41 | |
can improve the number of nurses
there to support the new ones coming | 0:08:41 | 0:08:47 | |
in, it becomes a continuous cycle
where people will not want to say | 0:08:47 | 0:08:50 | |
because they have not got the
support within the workplace. | 0:08:50 | 0:08:55 | |
Ministers in England say more nurses
are working in the NHS today than | 0:08:55 | 0:09:00 | |
2010 and they have launched a
programme to help organisations keep | 0:09:00 | 0:09:04 | |
hold of | 0:09:04 | 0:09:14 | |
hold of experienced and highly
skilled staff but retaining nurses | 0:09:16 | 0:09:18 | |
is a problem across the UK and the
pressures of a tough winter on an | 0:09:18 | 0:09:22 | |
already stretched health service
will not help. Dominic Hughes, BBC | 0:09:22 | 0:09:25 | |
News. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:29 | |
Early this week, a coroner ruled
that Poppi Worthington was sexually | 0:09:29 | 0:09:34 | |
assaulted by her father. | 0:09:34 | 0:09:42 | |
assaulted by her father. The
prosecution service says it will | 0:09:42 | 0:09:44 | |
look carefully at the judgement
along with Cumbria police. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:46 | |
More details have emerged
of the final days of construction | 0:09:46 | 0:09:50 | |
giant Carillion in a document put
together by the company's chief | 0:09:50 | 0:09:53 | |
executive as he prepared
to declare the firm insolvent. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:55 | |
More details have emerged
of the final days of construction | 0:09:55 | 0:09:58 | |
giant Carillion in a document put
together by the company's chief | 0:09:58 | 0:10:01 | |
executive as he prepared to declare
the firm insolvent. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:08 | |
It is part of this insolvency
process. They started talking to the | 0:10:08 | 0:10:15 | |
government in October about the
concerns they had about money. The | 0:10:15 | 0:10:20 | |
banks wanted their money back and
Carillion were struggling because | 0:10:20 | 0:10:24 | |
they did not have enough cash in the
pot to do that. They were having | 0:10:24 | 0:10:28 | |
these ongoing talks throughout
November, December that at the end | 0:10:28 | 0:10:33 | |
of December, on the 31st, they put
in a formal request for a rescue | 0:10:33 | 0:10:37 | |
plan. What they wanted them to do
was give a guarantee for four months | 0:10:37 | 0:10:41 | |
after that. That they would
guarantee the payments they are the | 0:10:41 | 0:10:46 | |
bank. If they couldn't | 0:10:46 | 0:10:47 | |
afford to give the | 0:10:47 | 0:10:48 | |
banks of the | 0:10:48 | 0:10:50 | |
money, the government would put them
back. They | 0:10:50 | 0:10:53 | |
also wanted to defer how...
Obviously there is lots of questions | 0:10:53 | 0:11:03 | |
in terms of whether we should have
done that. The government said they | 0:11:03 | 0:11:07 | |
had to be liquidated. Some people
have been asking me, why couldn't | 0:11:07 | 0:11:12 | |
they have gone into administration
and not gone on as normal. They | 0:11:12 | 0:11:16 | |
didn't have enough money in the pot.
We found out from this family had | 0:11:16 | 0:11:21 | |
£29 million which sounds like a lot
of money. There is 1.3 million. | 0:11:21 | 0:11:36 | |
of money. There is 1.3 million. Was
it bad management that got them to | 0:11:37 | 0:11:39 | |
the point? A lot of people are
looking at how much the Chief | 0:11:39 | 0:11:43 | |
Executive has paid. The gentleman
who was the Chief Executive just | 0:11:43 | 0:11:48 | |
before the profit warning came out,
took home 1.5 million in bonuses. | 0:11:48 | 0:11:54 | |
What does that mean? There is now a
formal investigation into Wallabies. | 0:11:54 | 0:12:07 | |
Police in California have praised
the bravery of the 17-year-old girl | 0:12:10 | 0:12:13 | |
who escaped from the home
where she and her 12 siblings | 0:12:13 | 0:12:16 | |
were allegedly being held
captive by their parents. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:19 | |
David and Louise Turpin -
whose children range in age from 2 | 0:12:19 | 0:12:23 | |
to 29 - are due to appear
in court later this week, | 0:12:23 | 0:12:26 | |
charged with torture
and child endangerment. | 0:12:26 | 0:12:27 | |
Investigators say they had had no
previous contacts with the couple. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:30 | |
I haven't been so shocked in my
life. It broke my heart and all of | 0:12:30 | 0:12:35 | |
our hearts and I just pray to God to
take care of the kids. She was about | 0:12:35 | 0:12:40 | |
16 years old. She is 47 now. It's a
problem when they left here. I | 0:12:40 | 0:12:53 | |
didn't even know where she lived. I
didn't have a name that could | 0:12:53 | 0:13:02 | |
attract anything. I hope and I do
care who knows. I hope they | 0:13:02 | 0:13:09 | |
prosecute them. Even if she is my
niece. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:22 | |
niece. God | 0:13:23 | 0:13:23 | |
Donald Trump has been advised to eat
a lower fat diet and take more | 0:13:23 | 0:13:27 | |
exercise, after his first
medical check-up in office. | 0:13:27 | 0:13:29 | |
However the White House
doctor says the President | 0:13:29 | 0:13:31 | |
who's 71 is generally
in excellent health | 0:13:31 | 0:13:33 | |
and that he performed
well in cognitive tests. | 0:13:33 | 0:13:39 | |
I've gotten to know him pretty well.
I had no concerns about his | 0:13:40 | 0:13:44 | |
cognitive ability or his
neurological functions. I was not | 0:13:44 | 0:13:51 | |
going to do a cognitive exam. I had
no intention of doing one. The | 0:13:51 | 0:13:55 | |
reason we did the cognitive
assessment. The President didn't ask | 0:13:55 | 0:13:59 | |
me. He came to me and said is there
something we can do or some kind of | 0:13:59 | 0:14:04 | |
screening we can do to assess my
cognitive ability. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:13 | |
We have got and we left it in the
office, we actually have got, which | 0:14:13 | 0:14:18 | |
is really interesting, some parts of
those cognitive tests. He got 30 out | 0:14:18 | 0:14:23 | |
of 30. It didn't strike me as that
difficult. The sort of like an onset | 0:14:23 | 0:14:29 | |
dementia test. A lion, a camel, that
sort of thing. We will show you. I'm | 0:14:29 | 0:14:40 | |
sure there is some kind of science
behind that. My two-year-old can | 0:14:40 | 0:14:44 | |
identify a rhinoceros. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:50 | |
identify a rhinoceros. I'm not
saying my two-year-old is fit to be | 0:14:50 | 0:14:54 | |
president. I'm talking about video
assistant refereeing again. Lastly, | 0:14:54 | 0:14:59 | |
we were talking about something that
was used. It was used to determine | 0:14:59 | 0:15:06 | |
whether a goal was offside. Actually
a goal was judged to be on side. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:12 | |
History was made in English
football last night. | 0:15:29 | 0:15:31 | |
A first goal awarded by the video
assistant referee as Leicester City | 0:15:31 | 0:15:34 | |
knocked Fleetwood Town
out of the FA Cup. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:37 | |
Britain's Kyle Edmund
has reached the third | 0:15:37 | 0:15:38 | |
round of the Australian Open
for the first time. | 0:15:38 | 0:15:41 | |
The British number two beat
Denis Istomin from Uzbekistan | 0:15:41 | 0:15:43 | |
in straight sets. | 0:15:43 | 0:15:44 | |
Edmund goes on to face world number | 0:15:44 | 0:15:46 | |
61 Nikoloz Basilashvili of Georgia
next. | 0:15:46 | 0:15:48 | |
World heavyweight champion
Anthony Joshua and fellow world | 0:15:48 | 0:15:50 | |

They will meet in a heavyweight
unification clash at the end | 0:15:53 | 0:15:56 | |
of March in the Welsh capital. | 0:15:56 | 0:15:57 | |

A lot going on with the weather. A
hectic start. | 0:16:14 | 0:16:21 | |
A lot going on with the weather. A
hectic start. There is a lot going | 0:16:21 | 0:16:25 | |
on. The snow. This has been updated
in the last few minutes. 39 | 0:16:25 | 0:16:37 | |
centimetres in Eskdalemuir. | 0:16:37 | 0:16:44 | |
centimetres in Eskdalemuir. If you
are travelling, needless to say, | 0:16:44 | 0:16:48 | |
there could be disruption, and are
already has been. There is the | 0:16:48 | 0:16:53 | |
additional hazard of ice. It has
been gusty overnight. On the tops of | 0:16:53 | 0:16:58 | |
the hills and mountains, blizzard
conditions. Through the next few the | 0:16:58 | 0:17:05 | |
wind will slowly start to come down.
Snow showers in Scotland and | 0:17:05 | 0:17:12 | |
Northern Ireland and even northern
England. South of | 0:17:12 | 0:17:19 | |
England. South of that, a quieter
picture. Cold. Sunshine from the | 0:17:26 | 0:17:28 | |
word go. Showers in the south,
mostly rain. Heavy ones could be he | 0:17:28 | 0:17:31 | |
ill and sleet. Windy, but not as
windy. A lot of sunshine further | 0:17:31 | 0:17:38 | |
south. Feeling nice. Temperatures,
nothing to write home about. In the | 0:17:38 | 0:17:45 | |
wind, generally cold. The next area
of low pressure coming our way. It | 0:17:45 | 0:17:52 | |
is deepening across the Atlantic,
bringing a combination of rain, | 0:17:52 | 0:17:56 | |
snow, and strong winds, gales, in
fact. Through the evening, here it | 0:17:56 | 0:18:03 | |
comes, pushing in towards the west.
It starts at 8pm. Snow in Northern | 0:18:03 | 0:18:09 | |
Ireland. Most in the hills. Most in
the north. Not all of Northern | 0:18:09 | 0:18:15 | |
Ireland will see snow. Hill snow in
Wales. With the graphics you can see | 0:18:15 | 0:18:22 | |
the heavy snow pushing across
northern England and southern | 0:18:22 | 0:18:25 | |
Scotland, possibly as far north as
the Central Lowlands. We could be | 0:18:25 | 0:18:29 | |
looking at it | 0:18:29 | 0:18:38 | |
looking at it falling to Blackpool.
Heavy rain falling quickly. Don't | 0:18:38 | 0:18:40 | |
forget, strong winds. | 0:18:40 | 0:18:51 | |
forget, strong winds. Perhaps 50
miles per hour inland. More than | 0:18:51 | 0:18:53 | |
that around exposed coasts. Tomorrow
morning, again, the risk of ice on | 0:18:53 | 0:18:59 | |
untreated surfaces. Possible
disruption if travelling because of | 0:18:59 | 0:19:01 | |
this combination. Take it easy.
Tomorrow morning, not dissimilar to | 0:19:01 | 0:19:06 | |
today. We lose the centre of low
pressure quickly and behind that, | 0:19:06 | 0:19:12 | |
sunshine and showers. Some of them
will be wintry in nature, especially | 0:19:12 | 0:19:16 | |
in the north and the west. At least
there will be sunshine. A lot going | 0:19:16 | 0:19:22 | |
on with the weather, Dan and Lou.
There really is. We will let you | 0:19:22 | 0:19:30 | |
have a cup of tea. | 0:19:30 | 0:19:33 | |
There really is. We will let you
have a cup of tea. | 0:19:33 | 0:19:39 | |
Let's take a look at today's papers. | 0:19:39 | 0:19:42 | |
The Telegraph. Reopening the Poppi
case. She may see justice finally | 0:19:42 | 0:19:58 | |
after prosecutors decided to review
it. The ex-wife of Rupert Murdoch | 0:19:58 | 0:20:02 | |
was a security risk because of ties
to Tony Blair. The Guardian. Talking | 0:20:02 | 0:20:11 | |
about knife crime. The children of
these parents, one of them, as we | 0:20:11 | 0:20:21 | |
know, managed to escape and alert
the authorities that they were kept | 0:20:21 | 0:20:26 | |
allegedly captive. They renew their
vows, the parents, on several | 0:20:26 | 0:20:33 | |
occasions. | 0:20:33 | 0:20:43 | |
occasions. This is the Turpin
family, the family in America with | 0:20:51 | 0:20:54 | |
13 brothers and sisters kept in
horrible conditions in the family | 0:20:54 | 0:20:57 | |
home. Shocking living conditions. I
just did that... I was reading it | 0:20:57 | 0:21:00 | |
while you were talking. Sorry for
not listening. There is a lot of | 0:21:00 | 0:21:03 | |
news. The front page of The Sun, and
The Express as well. Talking about | 0:21:03 | 0:21:07 | |
Emily meatless, a colleague, who did
a witness statement about a man | 0:21:07 | 0:21:16 | |
stalking her. -- Maitliss. The
Times. | 0:21:16 | 0:21:22 | |
Times. Britain to get Bayeux
Tapestry. We have asked for it many | 0:21:25 | 0:21:29 | |
times and it has always been denied.
A clip from a documentary in 2010 | 0:21:29 | 0:21:38 | |
singer peeker gets it to come back
to Britain from front. | 0:21:38 | 0:21:46 | |
to Britain from front. -- | 0:21:47 | 0:21:47 | |
singer peeker gets it to come back
to Britain from front. -- seeing if | 0:21:47 | 0:21:48 | |
we could get it to. | 0:21:48 | 0:21:58 | |
Merci. There you go. Tried his best.
Running out of time. This is a lad | 0:22:19 | 0:22:37 | |
called John, a Carpenter, who
decided his fiancee had a better | 0:22:37 | 0:22:40 | |
time | 0:22:40 | 0:22:49 | |
time running a nail salon, and
retrained as a nail technician, and | 0:22:49 | 0:22:52 | |
is making less money, but is more
happy. Is Arsene Wenger losing it? | 0:22:52 | 0:22:56 | |
Alexis Sanchez perhaps is going to
Manchester United. Many people in | 0:22:56 | 0:22:59 | |
the papers saying it is proof Arsene
Wenger is no longer in control at | 0:22:59 | 0:23:06 | |
Arsenal and should go. If you have
watched Breakfast for a while, I am | 0:23:06 | 0:23:13 | |
biased. Labradors are apparently the
best dog in the world. I have two. | 0:23:13 | 0:23:28 | |
best dog in the world. I have two. I
love Waffle and Ruby. They are both | 0:23:31 | 0:23:33 | |
my children and I love them equally.
You have the two best dogs in the | 0:23:33 | 0:23:37 | |
country, then. | 0:23:37 | 0:23:37 | |
Donald Trump has been given a clean
bill of health by his doctor | 0:23:37 | 0:23:41 | |
following his first medical
as Commander-in-Chief. | 0:23:41 | 0:23:43 | |
Dr Ronny Jackson said the President
was in good shape for his age, | 0:23:43 | 0:23:46 | |
but could benefit from a lower-fat
diet and more exercise. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:49 | |
He also said he had "no concerns"
about Mr Trump's cognitive ability. | 0:23:49 | 0:23:52 | |
The examination also flagged up
the medication that the President | 0:23:52 | 0:23:55 | |
takes, including a drug
to combat hair loss, | 0:23:55 | 0:23:57 | |
and a daily aspirin. | 0:23:57 | 0:24:05 | |
Let's speak now to James Norton,
former Deputy Assistant Secretary | 0:24:07 | 0:24:10 | |
at the Department of
Homeland Security under George W | 0:24:10 | 0:24:12 | |
Bush. | 0:24:12 | 0:24:14 | |
Good morning. It seems extraordinary
that president has to reveal | 0:24:14 | 0:24:17 | |
personal details. What is the
purpose? It was extraordinary to | 0:24:17 | 0:24:23 | |
have the Admiral speaking on behalf
of the president. Normally you get a | 0:24:23 | 0:24:30 | |
simple statement describing the
president's condition. I think this | 0:24:30 | 0:24:35 | |
White House in particular in the
last 12 months has struggled with | 0:24:35 | 0:24:39 | |
credibility. I think President Trump
has been criticised for his tweets | 0:24:39 | 0:24:46 | |
and the way in which they come out.
They are trying to knock down this | 0:24:46 | 0:24:52 | |
story, showing his physical and
mental health are both OK. There has | 0:24:52 | 0:25:01 | |
been a lot of conjecture about his
mental health. They wanted to | 0:25:01 | 0:25:04 | |
address that issue today. We have a
copy of the Montreal cognitive | 0:25:04 | 0:25:11 | |
assessment. Looking at it, it seems
extraordinary that he is having to | 0:25:11 | 0:25:19 | |
identify the difference between a
lion, rhino, and a camel. Will it do | 0:25:19 | 0:25:27 | |
what is intended? It will provide
some cover in the sense that this | 0:25:27 | 0:25:32 | |
was a big story. There were many
stories about his mental capacity | 0:25:32 | 0:25:38 | |
and tweets and things he has done. I
think it has helped them move the | 0:25:38 | 0:25:43 | |
ball a bit and get away from
physical and mental health, at least | 0:25:43 | 0:25:47 | |
for the time being. It is possible
if the tweaks later on today we come | 0:25:47 | 0:25:52 | |
back to this conversation. -- he
tweets. But it has provided cover. | 0:25:52 | 0:25:58 | |
So many issues are going on right
now that I am sure we will move onto | 0:25:58 | 0:26:04 | |
the next issue quickly I understand
some presidents had serious issue is | 0:26:04 | 0:26:11 | |
not made public after these.
Absolutely. -- issues. There have | 0:26:11 | 0:26:19 | |
been many, including some of the
first residents, not to mention | 0:26:19 | 0:26:25 | |
Roosevelt and President Kennedy,
they had serious illnesses that were | 0:26:25 | 0:26:29 | |
not disclosed. We now have a 24/7
news cycle. Everyone wants to know a | 0:26:29 | 0:26:38 | |
lot of information. It has become
very part is in in Washington and | 0:26:38 | 0:26:44 | |
the health of the president has
become a political issue. -- | 0:26:44 | 0:26:47 | |
partisan. It has become more of an
issue than the past. Looking at this | 0:26:47 | 0:26:53 | |
test again, it is particular,
specifically for dementia patients. | 0:26:53 | 0:26:59 | |
Yes. From what I understand from the
doctor, it is a test he requested. | 0:26:59 | 0:27:08 | |
Donald Trump watches the news quite
a bit and was keenly aware of the | 0:27:08 | 0:27:11 | |
criticism he was getting. He went
out of his way to get this test | 0:27:11 | 0:27:18 | |
taken made the decision to have the
doctor discussed the test. -- | 0:27:18 | 0:27:25 | |
discuss. It seems like people they
had to get that out of the way. -- | 0:27:25 | 0:27:31 | |
like a plan they had. | 0:27:31 | 0:27:39 | |
We find it difficult to read that
clock, it is so far away. | 0:27:39 | 0:27:48 | |
clock, it is so far away. It is
6:27. Apparently it is being | 0:27:48 | 0:27:50 | |
rebooted. Apparently the | 0:27:50 | 0:27:57 | |
rebooted. Apparently the president
had to draw a clock at ten past 11. | 0:27:57 | 0:27:59 | |
Time to get the news, travel, and | 0:27:59 | 0:31:20 | |
Saturday. A frosty start on Sunday
is likely. | 0:31:20 | 0:31:27 | |
I'm back with the latest
from the BBC London Newsroom | 0:31:27 | 0:31:29 | |
in half an hour. | 0:31:29 | 0:31:30 | |
Now, though, it's back
to the BBC Breakfast sofa. | 0:31:30 | 0:31:32 | |
Now, though, it's back

Bye for now. | 0:31:33 | 0:31:35 | |
Hello this is Breakfast,
with Louise Minchin and Dan Walker. | 0:31:35 | 0:31:38 | |
We'll bring you all the latest news
and sport in a moment, | 0:31:38 | 0:31:41 | |
but also on Breakfast this morning. | 0:31:41 | 0:31:42 | |
It's as bad for your health
as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. | 0:31:42 | 0:31:46 | |
Now a new minister has been
appointed to help the 9 million | 0:31:46 | 0:31:49 | |
people affected by loneliness. | 0:31:49 | 0:31:52 | |

We'll speak to her shortly. | 0:32:00 | 0:32:01 | |
Its collapse has left
an estimated 30,000 suppliers | 0:32:01 | 0:32:03 | |
and subcontractors out of pocket. | 0:32:03 | 0:32:05 | |
So why was Carillion sitting
on so many unpaid invoices? | 0:32:05 | 0:32:07 | |
Steph will explore
the issue of late payments. | 0:32:07 | 0:32:10 | |
I felt like I was actually doing
something useful and doing it well. | 0:32:10 | 0:32:13 | |
Marking 100 years of the Royal Air | 0:32:13 | 0:32:15 | |
Force. | 0:32:15 | 0:32:15 | |
We'll hear from the last surviving
British member of the Dambusters, | 0:32:15 | 0:32:18 | |
as the RAF prepares to reform
its most famous squadron. | 0:32:18 | 0:32:21 | |
Here's a summary of today's main | 0:32:21 | 0:32:23 | |
stories from BBC News. | 0:32:23 | 0:32:28 | |
Snow and ice are causing serious
problems on roads across Scotland, | 0:32:28 | 0:32:33 | |
Northern Ireland and northern
England with drivers stranded on | 0:32:33 | 0:32:35 | |
long queues on the 74 motorway.
Rescue teams are helping motorists | 0:32:35 | 0:32:45 | |
and people in Dumfries & Galloway
are being advised not to drive. Snow | 0:32:45 | 0:32:50 | |
has also caused problems forcing
schools to close. We earlier spoke | 0:32:50 | 0:32:54 | |
to a driver who. In his car all
night. | 0:32:54 | 0:33:01 | |
We were told nothing
other than what we could | 0:33:01 | 0:33:04 | |
glean from Twitter. | 0:33:04 | 0:33:05 | |
I understand mountain rescue was out
but we never saw them. | 0:33:05 | 0:33:08 | |
As the other motorists,
we only spoke to one of them. | 0:33:08 | 0:33:11 | |
Plenty of cars driving
up the hard shoulder. | 0:33:11 | 0:33:13 | |
We never wanted to leave the vehicle
for fear of collision. | 0:33:13 | 0:33:18 | |
More nurses left the health service
in England last year than joined - | 0:33:18 | 0:33:21 | |
the first time in 5 years
that there's been a net | 0:33:21 | 0:33:24 | |
reduction in staff. | 0:33:24 | 0:33:29 | |
BBC analysis of NHS data found that
just over 33,000 nurses left | 0:33:29 | 0:33:32 | |
the service - 3,000
more than signed up. | 0:33:32 | 0:33:34 | |
The Royal College of Nursing says
experienced staff are leaving | 0:33:34 | 0:33:37 | |
because they're demoralised. | 0:33:37 | 0:33:38 | |
NHS England's Chief Nursing Officer
says despite pressures, | 0:33:38 | 0:33:40 | |
front line staff are still
providing good care. | 0:33:40 | 0:33:48 | |
There are the places that we know
people are staying despite those | 0:33:51 | 0:33:55 | |
pressures because they know the care
they give is fantastic, they are | 0:33:55 | 0:33:59 | |
working under enormous pressure,
absolutely. The challenges over the | 0:33:59 | 0:34:02 | |
past few months in particular have
been significant. Probably more than | 0:34:02 | 0:34:06 | |
most of them have ever seen but they
are still in, they are still | 0:34:06 | 0:34:10 | |
working, they are still providing
good care. | 0:34:10 | 0:34:12 | |
Police in California have praised
the bravery of the 17-year-old girl | 0:34:12 | 0:34:15 | |
who escaped from the home
where she and her 12 siblings | 0:34:15 | 0:34:18 | |
were allegedly being held
captive by their parents. | 0:34:18 | 0:34:21 | |

David and Louise Turpin -
whose children range in age from 2 | 0:34:32 | 0:34:35 | |
to 29 - are due to appear
in court later this week, | 0:34:35 | 0:34:38 | |
charged with torture
and child endangerment. | 0:34:38 | 0:34:40 | |
Investigators say they had had no
previous contacts with the couple. | 0:34:40 | 0:34:44 | |
I haven't been so
shocked in my life. | 0:34:44 | 0:34:46 | |
It broke my heart and all of our
hearts and I just pray to God | 0:34:46 | 0:34:50 | |
they take care of the kids. | 0:34:50 | 0:34:55 | |
I hope they prosecute her to the
full extent of the law, even though | 0:34:55 | 0:34:59 | |
she is my niece, because those kids
don't deserve that. | 0:34:59 | 0:35:04 | |
Donald Trump has been advised to eat
a lower fat diet and take more | 0:35:04 | 0:35:08 | |
exercise, after his first
medical check-up in office. | 0:35:08 | 0:35:10 | |
However the White House doctor
says the President - | 0:35:10 | 0:35:13 | |
who's 71 - is generally in excellent
health and that he performed well | 0:35:13 | 0:35:16 | |
in cognitive tests. | 0:35:16 | 0:35:17 | |
The Bayeux Tapestry is to return
to Britain for the first time | 0:35:17 | 0:35:20 | |
since it was made
in the 11th century. | 0:35:20 | 0:35:23 | |
The 70m-long embroidery,
which tells the story of the Battle | 0:35:23 | 0:35:25 | |
of Hastings, has been kept in France
for the last 950 years but will go | 0:35:25 | 0:35:29 | |
on display in Britain
after months of talks. | 0:35:29 | 0:35:32 | |
The BBC understands that
French President Emmanuel Macron | 0:35:32 | 0:35:34 | |
will confirm the loan when he meets
Theresa May tomorrow. | 0:35:34 | 0:35:38 | |
Should we just quickly tell you
about what is going on. Police | 0:35:38 | 0:35:42 | |
Scotland has told us in the last few
moments, they are having problems on | 0:35:42 | 0:35:48 | |
the 74 between junctions 15 and
nine. Many people were still stuck | 0:35:48 | 0:35:53 | |
there. Vehicles still stuck from
Junction 12 to Junction 9. | 0:35:53 | 0:35:59 | |
One lane opened northbound but they
will close that soon. Quite a bit of | 0:35:59 | 0:36:04 | |
detail there for you and we will
have a full update with Carol on the | 0:36:04 | 0:36:08 | |
weather situation because there is
snow for many parts of the UK. | 0:36:08 | 0:36:12 | |
Outside, it is all right. It's
totally fine. Coming home from | 0:36:12 | 0:36:17 | |
Sheffield was a bit brutal. We are
talking about the video assistant | 0:36:17 | 0:36:23 | |
referee because he was actually used
properly and could determine if the | 0:36:23 | 0:36:27 | |
goal was on side of the first time.
Let's have a look at how it panned | 0:36:27 | 0:36:34 | |
out. This is Leicester and
Fleetwood. | 0:36:34 | 0:36:41 | |
Fleetwood. No problems there are
all. | 0:36:41 | 0:36:44 | |
Kelechi Iheanacho put Leicester 1
nil ahead against the League One | 0:36:44 | 0:36:47 | |
side at the King Power. | 0:36:47 | 0:36:48 | |
And then came his second, | 0:36:48 | 0:36:50 | |
at first ruled offside
by the linesman, referred to the VAR | 0:36:50 | 0:36:53 | |
and after careful consideration
he was judged to have been onside. | 0:36:53 | 0:37:01 | |
We were a lot better obviously on
the first leg, we knew that we had | 0:37:02 | 0:37:07 | |
to perform a lot better and be a bit
more professional on the pitch. We | 0:37:07 | 0:37:11 | |
have done that tonight, got the
result and this man has got the | 0:37:11 | 0:37:15 | |
goals and it shows that VAR does
work. | 0:37:15 | 0:37:18 | |
There were no upsets in any of last
night's other four replays. | 0:37:18 | 0:37:21 | |
West Ham were taken to extra time
by League One Shrewsbury, | 0:37:21 | 0:37:24 | |
but the Premier League
side made it through. | 0:37:24 | 0:37:26 | |
Cardiff, Sheffield Wednesday
and Reading are also | 0:37:26 | 0:37:28 | |
through to the fourth round. | 0:37:28 | 0:37:32 | |
World heavyweight champion
Anthony Joshua and fellow world | 0:37:32 | 0:37:34 | |
champion Joseph Parker have come
face to face in Cardiff. | 0:37:34 | 0:37:37 | |
There is some flash
photography coming up. | 0:37:37 | 0:37:39 | |
They will meet in a heavyweight
unification clash at the end | 0:37:39 | 0:37:42 | |
of March in the Welsh capital. | 0:37:42 | 0:37:44 | |
The fight will unify Joshua's WBA
and IBF belts with Parker's WBO | 0:37:44 | 0:37:47 | |
title, and Joshua says he needs
to box intelligently to beat him. | 0:37:47 | 0:37:51 | |
He hasn't got that, I want to climb
back up the mountain, because at the | 0:37:51 | 0:37:56 | |
moment is sitting on top of it but
he has the lion 's mentality that | 0:37:56 | 0:38:00 | |
anybody climbing up it, he wants to
kick back down. Let's say I'm a | 0:38:00 | 0:38:04 | |
level below him, I have to be
strategic. By facing head-on, it | 0:38:04 | 0:38:07 | |
will be a clash of the Titans that
if I get is a tension that way and | 0:38:07 | 0:38:15 | |
come here and bank amount from the
right, he is not going to see him | 0:38:15 | 0:38:19 | |
coming. | 0:38:19 | 0:38:21 | |
Ronnie O'Sullivan rattled
through his first round match | 0:38:21 | 0:38:23 | |
at the Masters snooker allowing
Marco Fu to pot only 8 balls in a 6 | 0:38:23 | 0:38:27 | |
frames | 0:38:27 | 0:38:28 | |
to nil thrashing. | 0:38:28 | 0:38:29 | |
O'Sullivan's won this tournament
a record seven times. | 0:38:29 | 0:38:31 | |
And he made three century breaks
in the first four frames in a match | 0:38:31 | 0:38:34 | |
that only lasted just over an hour
and a half at Alexandra | 0:38:34 | 0:38:38 | |

Amazingly Ronnie reckoned
he's wasn't at his best. | 0:38:38 | 0:38:43 | |
I have a virus or something and I
just felt very dizzy and I felt sort | 0:38:43 | 0:38:47 | |
of... Really? You looked in good
form. I just planned off instinct, | 0:38:47 | 0:38:52 | |
don't think, just pot balls but
really struggling over the last 56 | 0:38:52 | 0:38:57 | |
days. Have you been struggling with
illness? No, I've just been feeling | 0:38:57 | 0:39:01 | |
dizzy. You couldn't give it to me?
Maybe a lack of magnesium I was | 0:39:01 | 0:39:06 | |
told, I have been eating well for
the last few months. | 0:39:06 | 0:39:10 | |
Britain's Kyle Edmund
has reached the third | 0:39:10 | 0:39:12 | |
round of the Australian Open
for the first time. | 0:39:12 | 0:39:14 | |
The British number two beat
Denis Istomin from Uzbekistan | 0:39:14 | 0:39:17 | |
in straight sets. | 0:39:17 | 0:39:18 | |
Edmund goes on to face world number
61 Nikoloz Basilashvili of Georgia | 0:39:18 | 0:39:21 | |
next. | 0:39:21 | 0:39:22 | |

of a confused Roger Federer. | 0:39:42 | 0:39:45 | |
He's having a day off
today but yesterday, | 0:39:45 | 0:39:47 | |
after reaching the second round,
had to face some tough questions | 0:39:47 | 0:39:50 | |
from American actor Will Ferrell,
in the guise of character | 0:39:50 | 0:39:53 | |
Ron Burgundy from
the film Anchorman. | 0:39:53 | 0:39:57 | |
Tonight you seemed like a gazelle
out there on the court. Would you | 0:39:57 | 0:40:02 | |
describe your game as a silky
gazelle? Maybe. Maybe not. Don't | 0:40:02 | 0:40:13 | |
they get eaten at the end? Not if
they are fast enough. | 0:40:13 | 0:40:22 | |
they are fast enough. Isn't it the
other guy who does the sport in | 0:40:22 | 0:40:25 | |
anchorman? Brick. That is a better
interview than Brick could manage. | 0:40:25 | 0:40:34 | |
It's a problem we have returned
to many times on Breakfast - | 0:40:34 | 0:40:38 | |
loneliness and the growing issue
of social isolation. | 0:40:38 | 0:40:40 | |
Experts have told us how bad it can
be for our health and we've also | 0:40:40 | 0:40:44 | |
looked at some of the innovativeNow
the government has accepted | 0:40:44 | 0:40:47 | |
the scale of the problem and is
launching a national strategy. | 0:40:47 | 0:40:50 | |
It will be led by minister
Tracey Crouch, who joins us | 0:40:50 | 0:40:53 | |
from our Westminster studio.
solutions out there. | 0:40:53 | 0:41:01 | |
Thank you for joining us from
Westminster. The government is | 0:41:06 | 0:41:10 | |
recognising the scale of this
problem but has it been backed up by | 0:41:10 | 0:41:13 | |
actual policy? Absolutely. I'm proud
to have been appointed the minister | 0:41:13 | 0:41:19 | |
the loneliness to tackle this
problem that we face, not just on | 0:41:19 | 0:41:23 | |
this occasion but many times before.
We know there is a real impact of | 0:41:23 | 0:41:29 | |
social isolation and loneliness on
people, their physical and mental | 0:41:29 | 0:41:34 | |
well-being. And who want to tackle
this challenge. It's going to be | 0:41:34 | 0:41:39 | |
huge. I have been given the role of
working across government, | 0:41:39 | 0:41:44 | |
businesses, community organisations
and charities, to tackle this | 0:41:44 | 0:41:47 | |
challenge. This is something we
speak about regularly and something | 0:41:47 | 0:41:52 | |
people would feel quite deeply and
passionately about. Will you get | 0:41:52 | 0:41:57 | |
extra financial support from the
Chancellor? We have said we will set | 0:41:57 | 0:42:03 | |
up a new innovation fund to help
tackle this solution. How big? Many | 0:42:03 | 0:42:10 | |
millions of pounds but who don't
know the precise figure and that is | 0:42:10 | 0:42:14 | |
the reason, the commission which has
done excellent work on | 0:42:14 | 0:42:18 | |
recommendations, wants to help us
design the fund said in a process, | 0:42:18 | 0:42:23 | |
we will come to a figure but it will
not be one fund, there are others | 0:42:23 | 0:42:27 | |
out there. And the thing to remember
is, we will be working across | 0:42:27 | 0:42:33 | |
government and each government
department has funds to tackle the | 0:42:33 | 0:42:36 | |
issues said this is a real
opportunity to get to grips with | 0:42:36 | 0:42:40 | |
this problem and it's not just
within the elderly, it's an issue | 0:42:40 | 0:42:43 | |
which has talked about a lot, but
there are other age groups, other | 0:42:43 | 0:42:48 | |
groups in society that also face a
real challenge of loneliness and | 0:42:48 | 0:42:52 | |
that is one of the issues we have to
get to grips with. Isn't the problem | 0:42:52 | 0:42:58 | |
that the government, local authority
cuts, and Labourites saying half of | 0:42:58 | 0:43:05 | |
local authorities did not spend
anything on loneliness services | 0:43:05 | 0:43:09 | |
because of cuts to those services?
Local authority funding is a | 0:43:09 | 0:43:14 | |
challenge to the sector. We need to
make sure that we do support those | 0:43:14 | 0:43:21 | |
charities to continue to do their
excellent work. But we are looking | 0:43:21 | 0:43:29 | |
at specific issues around tackling
loneliness. Different groups in | 0:43:29 | 0:43:34 | |
society. A lot of great work going
on out there. We need to have a | 0:43:34 | 0:43:39 | |
holistic look at how we can deal
with these issues. This is an | 0:43:39 | 0:43:44 | |
enormous opportunity to build on the
work of Jo Cox and the commission, | 0:43:44 | 0:43:49 | |
cross-party, across all sectors, to
make sure we look at a framework and | 0:43:49 | 0:43:55 | |
going forward. This will not be a
single document something we do over | 0:43:55 | 0:44:00 | |
the next year, something we really
take on and recognise this is a | 0:44:00 | 0:44:05 | |
generational challenge. Whenever we
take on this topic, will they talk | 0:44:05 | 0:44:12 | |
about things like libraries and day
centres which are disappearing. This | 0:44:12 | 0:44:17 | |
is a financial issue which if those
things were there,... We will look | 0:44:17 | 0:44:24 | |
at how we can address those issues.
Those are just parts of that. There | 0:44:24 | 0:44:29 | |
isn't a single problem or solution.
That is one of the reasons why the | 0:44:29 | 0:44:34 | |
Prime Minister has set the Minister
to work across the whole of | 0:44:34 | 0:44:38 | |
government to make sure we have a
joined up approach to this, that we | 0:44:38 | 0:44:42 | |
do look at some of the issues that
we face in different areas of | 0:44:42 | 0:44:45 | |
society. You have mentioned there
will be many more and those are one | 0:44:45 | 0:44:50 | |
of the challenges we face. There is
a story that has been picked up by | 0:44:50 | 0:44:55 | |
the papers. Your fellow MP Ben
Bradley, give the jobless | 0:44:55 | 0:45:01 | |
vasectomies. This is a blog that he
wrote a few years ago and he says he | 0:45:01 | 0:45:07 | |
has matured a little bit. Doesn't
this get the part of the root of the | 0:45:07 | 0:45:11 | |
problem for Conservative Party
politicians, engaging with young | 0:45:11 | 0:45:16 | |
voters? I don't agree with his
comments. He made those comments | 0:45:16 | 0:45:20 | |
when he was younger. I think that we
face challenges, engaging with | 0:45:20 | 0:45:27 | |
youngsters. I am also engaged in
youth policy and working with many | 0:45:27 | 0:45:35 | |
members of youth groups as I do
already to make sure we engage them | 0:45:35 | 0:45:39 | |
in the democratic process. When you
work with those youth groups and | 0:45:39 | 0:45:42 | |
they tell you about Ben Bradley and
those comments, doesn't this hit the | 0:45:42 | 0:45:48 | |
Tory party exactly where it hurts?
You are not appealing to these | 0:45:48 | 0:45:52 | |
people. When somebody who is set to
have a big future in the | 0:45:52 | 0:45:59 | |
Conservative Party says this, and
has to apologise for it, that is | 0:45:59 | 0:46:04 | |
more weight added to the opinion
that you are not serving those | 0:46:04 | 0:46:08 | |
people? I disagree with you on that. | 0:46:08 | 0:46:16 | |
We will have to engage with youth,
making sure we engage the issues and | 0:46:16 | 0:46:23 | |
challenges they face in society.
Young people are as at risk of | 0:46:23 | 0:46:30 | |
loneliness and social isolation as
the elderly, and I will look at that | 0:46:30 | 0:46:36 | |
as part of my new role. | 0:46:36 | 0:46:39 | |
You're watching
Breakfast from BBC News. | 0:46:39 | 0:46:40 | |
The main stories this morning: | 0:46:40 | 0:46:42 | |
We are looking at the impact of the
snow. Good morning. | 0:46:42 | 0:46:48 | |
We are looking at the impact of the
snow. Good morning. We will start by | 0:46:48 | 0:46:53 | |
looking at the latest snow depths.
39 centimetres of lying snow. That | 0:46:53 | 0:47:00 | |
is just over 15 inches. | 0:47:00 | 0:47:07 | |
is just over 15 inches. Some of that
will be blown in by strong winds | 0:47:08 | 0:47:11 | |
overnight. | 0:47:11 | 0:47:16 | |
overnight. Lots of hazards if
travelling this morning. Snow | 0:47:19 | 0:47:22 | |
showers will continue on and off
through the day in Scotland. A risk | 0:47:22 | 0:47:27 | |
of ice. Strong winds, but they will
very slowly ease through the next | 0:47:27 | 0:47:34 | |
few hours. The wind is slowing down.
Northern England, a risk of ice. | 0:47:34 | 0:47:41 | |
Sunshine. It will go away through
the day. Wales and southern England, | 0:47:41 | 0:47:47 | |
East Anglia, dry weather this
morning. It is cold. The risk of | 0:47:47 | 0:47:53 | |
ice. Showers will be rainy. Late in
the day, in heavy showers, you might | 0:47:53 | 0:48:00 | |
see sleet and hail. Showers persist.
Some left in northern England. In | 0:48:00 | 0:48:11 | |
Northern | 0:48:11 | 0:48:18 | |
Northern Ireland, easing a touch.
7-8. Feeling cold wherever you are. | 0:48:18 | 0:48:20 | |
The system behind me is developing
in the Atlantic. This area of low | 0:48:20 | 0:48:25 | |
pressure will bring a combination of
rain and gales and snow. If we look | 0:48:25 | 0:48:30 | |
at it, here it comes from the west.
8pm. Strong winds. Northern Ireland, | 0:48:30 | 0:48:41 | |
snow in the north. It will be in the
hills. Northern Ireland will | 0:48:41 | 0:48:50 | |
hills. Northern Ireland will not see
much in the hills. As we go east, | 0:48:52 | 0:48:56 | |
heavy snowfall in two northern
England and parts of Scotland, | 0:48:56 | 0:48:59 | |
possibly as far north as the Central
Lowlands. This will go through quite | 0:48:59 | 0:49:02 | |
quickly. This out, rain moving
quickly across accompanied by gales. | 0:49:02 | 0:49:09 | |
-- the south. Inland, | 0:49:09 | 0:49:16 | |
-- the south. Inland, gales, gusts
of wind up to 50 miles per hour. In | 0:49:17 | 0:49:23 | |
Liverpool, 70 miles per hour.
Eastern areas, windy. The threat of | 0:49:23 | 0:49:29 | |
snow. The coastline, sleet. Not far
inland, in the hills, snow. | 0:49:29 | 0:49:36 | |
Tomorrow, the risk of ice. Many
hazards. Some could lead to | 0:49:36 | 0:49:42 | |
disruption. Snow will blow. The wind
will be strong, especially in | 0:49:42 | 0:49:49 | |
Scotland, as that is where the
centre of low pressure is. Tomorrow, | 0:49:49 | 0:49:52 | |
that is the system. A lot of showers
and sunshine. Some of those will be | 0:49:52 | 0:50:00 | |
wintry, even at lower levels, in
parts of Scotland and also Northern | 0:50:00 | 0:50:03 | |
Ireland. Temperature-wise, feeling
cold, especially in the north. 2-3. | 0:50:03 | 0:50:10 | |
The Channel Islands is the place to
be, looking at 11. Police say there | 0:50:10 | 0:50:17 | |
are still issues, especially on the
M74. If you are driving, you need to | 0:50:17 | 0:50:22 | |
prepare. Definitely. And take its
low. Take your winter tyres. They | 0:50:22 | 0:50:32 | |
could help. Everyone is sensible and
knows how to behave. Thank you very | 0:50:32 | 0:50:36 | |
much. I know you have a busy day and
are keeping us right up-to-date. I | 0:50:36 | 0:50:43 | |
have an emergency flapjack in the
glove compartment. That will help | 0:50:43 | 0:50:49 | |
when you are digging yourself out | 0:50:49 | 0:50:51 | |
glove compartment. That will help
when you are digging yourself out of | 0:50:51 | 0:50:51 | |
the snow. | 0:50:51 | 0:50:56 | |
We are looking at why big businesses
can get away with things. Many | 0:50:58 | 0:51:04 | |
people are talking about how on
Earth we can get to a point with so | 0:51:04 | 0:51:09 | |
many suppliers out of pocket, many
of them small businesses. Good | 0:51:09 | 0:51:13 | |
morning. | 0:51:13 | 0:51:14 | |
It's estimated around 30,000
suppliers and subcontractors | 0:51:14 | 0:51:16 | |
are still owed money
by the construction firm Carillion, | 0:51:16 | 0:51:18 | |
after it collapsed on Monday. | 0:51:18 | 0:51:20 | |
This morning, Steph is looking
at why some big businesses can get | 0:51:20 | 0:51:23 | |
away with paying up late. | 0:51:23 | 0:51:31 | |
For us, generally, we have a few
customers who are habitually late. | 0:51:35 | 0:51:44 | |
Unfortunately, from my point of
view, they are large customers. We | 0:51:44 | 0:51:51 | |
have to make a decision about the
value of the customer and whether or | 0:51:51 | 0:51:55 | |
not the money is safe. Generally
speaking, we try and not go down the | 0:51:55 | 0:52:01 | |
legal route, but if we have to, we
have to. | 0:52:01 | 0:52:04 | |
Alan Laing is MD of Sage UK
and Northern Ireland, | 0:52:04 | 0:52:07 | |
an accounting software firm that
works with thousands of small | 0:52:07 | 0:52:10 | |
businesses and campaigns
on late payment. | 0:52:10 | 0:52:13 | |
Why is this such a problem? They
conducted a survey into late | 0:52:13 | 0:52:18 | |
payments, because customers told us
it is an issue. It told us 18% are | 0:52:18 | 0:52:26 | |
paid late. That is more than any
other in the country we surveyed. It | 0:52:26 | 0:52:31 | |
is a big issue for small business.
When we say late, what are we | 0:52:31 | 0:52:35 | |
talking about? How does it work on
average? Some of the small | 0:52:35 | 0:52:40 | |
businesses we have talked to have
not set payment terms upfront, which | 0:52:40 | 0:52:44 | |
is an issue they need to think
about. It can be anything up to 9% | 0:52:44 | 0:52:49 | |
of invoices never get paid, they are
written off. Translate that to the | 0:52:49 | 0:52:54 | |
world economy, that is, you know, $3
trillion of money not getting paid. | 0:52:54 | 0:53:00 | |
It has a big impact on small
business. What can businesses do? | 0:53:00 | 0:53:04 | |
The main reason they do this is
because 40% said it is because of | 0:53:04 | 0:53:11 | |
the relationship, they do not want
to jeopardise the relationship with | 0:53:11 | 0:53:14 | |
the supplier, and are not having the
discussion. Small businesses are not | 0:53:14 | 0:53:21 | |
being paid by big business. The
government set out a strategy some | 0:53:21 | 0:53:26 | |
time ago to make sure it is paid on
time. All businesses need to be | 0:53:26 | 0:53:31 | |
responsible and make a cultural
change that this is not acceptable. | 0:53:31 | 0:53:37 | |
It is impacting the productivity of
the UK. The companies who are not | 0:53:37 | 0:53:42 | |
paying, how are they getting away
with it? It is hard to understand. | 0:53:42 | 0:53:47 | |
9% never get the money. How do they
get away with it? As he said, it is | 0:53:47 | 0:53:53 | |
difficult to counter. There is the
legal route. Is it there in the | 0:53:53 | 0:53:59 | |
first place? They don't have the
resources to follow up. There are | 0:53:59 | 0:54:02 | |
some good things around. There are
industrial strategies. There is a | 0:54:02 | 0:54:09 | |
great website with information on
how you can seek help. As well is | 0:54:09 | 0:54:16 | |
that, there was a strategy about
corrupt payment. Even | 0:54:16 | 0:54:25 | |
corrupt payment. Even the government
sets out to pay small business in | 0:54:25 | 0:54:27 | |
time. There were regulations put
forward on how governments would ask | 0:54:27 | 0:54:32 | |
companies to register payment. That
is a good initiative but has not | 0:54:32 | 0:54:39 | |
been followed up. Relatively few
companies have done it. Will bring | 0:54:39 | 0:54:43 | |
change given how many companies are
affected? It is affecting the UK's | 0:54:43 | 0:54:50 | |
productivity. It is about businesses
having that conversation. It is | 0:54:50 | 0:54:55 | |
about Britain not liking to talk
about money. You have to pay on | 0:54:55 | 0:55:01 | |
time, because if you do not, you are
not a bank, you are not. Thank you. | 0:55:01 | 0:55:10 | |
We will cover this story for some
time. Get in touch with us if you | 0:55:10 | 0:55:16 | |
have any thoughts or are connected
to the story. | 0:55:16 | 0:55:22 | |
Something different. Sneezing. There
was a story about a man who damaged | 0:55:22 | 0:55:34 | |
himself by blocking his nose while
sneezing. There is that old wives | 0:55:34 | 0:55:42 | |
tale that if you | 0:55:42 | 0:55:50 | |
tale that if you sneeze while
holding your nose, your eyes could | 0:55:50 | 0:55:53 | |
pop out. We will talk to an expert.
That will not happen. | 0:55:53 | 0:56:01 | |
That will not happen. Bless you
everybody. Why do we sneeze? All of | 0:56:18 | 0:56:21 | |
that. It is the season for sniffles.
We should sign a pact to never show | 0:56:21 | 0:56:25 | |
that again. That was horrible. You
have been trying to persuade me not | 0:56:25 | 0:56:28 | |
to do the silent sneeze. It is
impressive. You need to get to know | 0:56:28 | 0:56:32 | |
Louise to see it. It is impressive.
I cannot | 0:56:32 | 0:59:56 | |
A frosty start on Sunday is likely. | 0:59:56 | 0:59:58 | |
I'm back with the latest
from the BBC London Newsroom | 0:59:58 | 1:00:00 | |
in half an hour. | 1:00:00 | 1:00:03 | |
Hello - this is Breakfast,
with Louise Minchin and Dan Walker. | 1:00:31 | 1:00:34 | |
Hundreds of drivers stranded
overnight as heavy snow sweeps | 1:00:34 | 1:00:37 | |
across the UK. | 1:00:37 | 1:00:37 | |
Mountain rescue teams are drafted | 1:00:37 | 1:00:39 | |
in as blizzard conditions leave
motorists stuck for up to 8 hours | 1:00:39 | 1:00:42 | |
on the M74 in Scotland. | 1:00:42 | 1:00:50 | |
Scotland, Northern Ireland and
northern England are affected by the | 1:00:54 | 1:01:00 | |
snow. There is more in the way later
on. | 1:01:00 | 1:01:08 | |
Good morning, it's
Wednesday 17th January. | 1:01:15 | 1:01:16 | |
Also this morning: | 1:01:16 | 1:01:18 | |
More nurses are quitting the NHS
in England than joining. | 1:01:18 | 1:01:23 | |

Carillion owed more than a billion
pounds when it went bust - | 1:01:34 | 1:01:37 | |
but now we didn't even have enough
cash for 5% of the bill. | 1:01:37 | 1:01:44 | |
It owed more than a billion pounds
to the bank but when Carillion | 1:01:44 | 1:01:48 | |
collapsed it had just 29
million left in cash. | 1:01:48 | 1:01:50 | |

First, our main story. | 1:02:08 | 1:02:09 | |
Snow and ice are causing serious
problems on roads across Scotland, | 1:02:09 | 1:02:12 | |
Northern Ireland and Northern
England, with drivers stranded | 1:02:12 | 1:02:14 | |
in long queues on the M74 motorway. | 1:02:14 | 1:02:16 | |
Mountain rescue teams
are helping trapped motorists, | 1:02:16 | 1:02:18 | |
and people in Dumfries and Galloway
are being advised not to drive. | 1:02:18 | 1:02:26 | |
Snow has also caused problems
in Northern Ireland, | 1:02:26 | 1:02:28 | |
forcing schools to close
and disrupting public transport. | 1:02:28 | 1:02:30 | |
Ian Palmer reports. | 1:02:30 | 1:02:35 | |
Rescuing the drivers trapped
in their cars overnight on the main | 1:02:35 | 1:02:38 | |
motorway between
England and Scotland. | 1:02:38 | 1:02:40 | |
Heavy snow meant treacherous
conditions for the emergency | 1:02:40 | 1:02:42 | |
services on the M74. | 1:02:42 | 1:02:48 | |
The icy weather kept some motorists
in freezing cars for more | 1:02:48 | 1:02:51 | |
than eight hours. | 1:02:51 | 1:02:52 | |
Very little has been
happening, I'm afraid. | 1:02:52 | 1:02:54 | |
We've barely moved. | 1:02:54 | 1:02:58 | |
I'm not that far away
from Motherwell still. | 1:02:58 | 1:03:01 | |
In total, very little movement. | 1:03:01 | 1:03:08 | |
BM 74 runs from Gretna Green to
Cosco. The main problems were from | 1:03:08 | 1:03:13 | |
Junction 12 to 15 and the wild
weather is not going away. The Met | 1:03:13 | 1:03:18 | |
Office has issued a number of
warnings for: | 1:03:18 | 1:03:23 | |
On the Isle of Skye, | 1:03:23 | 1:03:25 | |
the main road was closed for several | 1:03:25 | 1:03:27 | |
hours in both directions
by jackknifed lorry. | 1:03:27 | 1:03:29 | |
Two buses carrying pupils
were forced to return to school | 1:03:29 | 1:03:32 | |
for the night. | 1:03:32 | 1:03:40 | |
without people hours medical. So
quite a long time. We have managed | 1:03:47 | 1:03:51 | |
to assist people and get fuel back
to them but mostly it's been | 1:03:51 | 1:03:54 | |
checking the welfare of people in
our cars. | 1:03:54 | 1:04:00 | |
Dozens
of schools closed | 1:04:00 | 1:04:01 | |
yesterday across Scotland affecting | 1:04:01 | 1:04:02 | |
thousands of children. | 1:04:02 | 1:04:03 | |
But it wasn't all doom and gloom. | 1:04:03 | 1:04:05 | |
In Selkirk, the scene was worthy
of a seasonal postcard with people | 1:04:05 | 1:04:08 | |
living on higher ground
witnessing the heavy snowfall. | 1:04:08 | 1:04:10 | |
In Dumfries, snowploughs
worked around the clock | 1:04:10 | 1:04:16 | |
to keep motorists moving. | 1:04:16 | 1:04:17 | |
This was the picture in Glasgow. | 1:04:17 | 1:04:19 | |
And in Edinburgh, only the most
determined ventured out in our cars. | 1:04:19 | 1:04:23 | |
Gritters have been out
through the night to avoid a repeat | 1:04:23 | 1:04:31 | |
of the problems for drivers
on the M74 but Police Scotland say | 1:04:31 | 1:04:34 | |
if you can avoid travelling this
morning, you should do so. | 1:04:34 | 1:04:37 | |
Ian Palmer, BBC News. | 1:04:37 | 1:04:42 | |
The Met Office has issued warnings
for most of the country, | 1:04:42 | 1:04:45 | |
with many areas at risk
of snow, ice or wind. | 1:04:45 | 1:04:48 | |
Carol has the latest. | 1:04:48 | 1:04:56 | |
He and the weather warning expires
at eight o'clock settings will | 1:05:04 | 1:05:08 | |
slowly start to improve. Snow
showers across Northern Ireland but | 1:05:08 | 1:05:12 | |
the intensity of them will ease off
on the strength of the wind will | 1:05:12 | 1:05:16 | |
slowly ease however later on this
afternoon, a deep area of low | 1:05:16 | 1:05:19 | |
pressure | 1:05:19 | 1:05:20 | |
afternoon, a deep area of low
pressure coming in from the Atlantic | 1:05:20 | 1:05:21 | |
bringing rain, heavy snow and some
gales as we go through the latter | 1:05:21 | 1:05:26 | |
part of this evening. It will be
largely rain with hill snow, rain | 1:05:26 | 1:05:31 | |
with hill snow in Wales but heavy
snow across northern England, | 1:05:31 | 1:05:36 | |
southern and central Scotland. The
strongest winds. | 1:05:36 | 1:05:44 | |
Gusts of 40- 50 miles an hour. If
you are in an area with running | 1:05:44 | 1:05:52 | |
snow, we are looking at lizards,
particularly on higher ground. That | 1:05:52 | 1:05:58 | |
will be gone through the course of
tomorrow morning. We are not out of | 1:05:58 | 1:06:03 | |
the woods just yet. | 1:06:03 | 1:06:04 | |
Are you waking up
to snow this morning? | 1:06:04 | 1:06:06 | |
Have you been stuck
in traffic overnight? | 1:06:06 | 1:06:08 | |

More nurses left the health service
in England last year than joined - | 1:06:34 | 1:06:38 | |
the first time in 5 years
that there's been a net | 1:06:38 | 1:06:40 | |
reduction in staff. | 1:06:40 | 1:06:41 | |
Just over 33,000 nurses
left the service - | 1:06:41 | 1:06:43 | |
3,000 more than signed up. | 1:06:43 | 1:06:45 | |
The Royal College of Nursing says
more must be done to support younger | 1:06:45 | 1:06:48 | |
nurses at the start
of their careers. | 1:06:48 | 1:06:50 | |
Let's speak to our Health
Correspondent Dominic Hughes, | 1:06:50 | 1:06:52 | |
who's at Birmingham
Children's hospital. | 1:06:52 | 1:06:54 | |
Dominic, what's the current
situation, what do these statistics | 1:06:54 | 1:06:56 | |
Dominic, what's the current
situation, what do these statistics | 1:06:56 | 1:06:59 | |
show us? | 1:06:59 | 1:06:59 | |
They are worrying. Good morning from
Birmingham Children's Hospital. We | 1:06:59 | 1:07:06 | |
are in Ward 11 which is part of the
world-renowned cardiology unit. It | 1:07:06 | 1:07:10 | |
are in Ward 11 which is part of the
world-renowned cardiology unit. It | 1:07:10 | 1:07:10 | |
is one of the biggest and busiest in
the UK. Here they treat children | 1:07:10 | 1:07:15 | |
from Little baby infant 's right up
to adolescence. It's a bit gloomy | 1:07:15 | 1:07:21 | |
behind me. The award is now
beginning to get ready for the next | 1:07:21 | 1:07:27 | |
day. Why are we here? Today, we are
looking at the work of the UK's | 1:07:27 | 1:07:33 | |
nurses. We asked the NHS to provide
as figures on these nurses so we can | 1:07:33 | 1:07:41 | |
get a snapshot on how the profession
is doing as the NHS is quite under a | 1:07:41 | 1:07:45 | |
bit of stress. All we found is
concerning. We found that more than | 1:07:45 | 1:07:54 | |
33,000 nurses walked away from their
health services job in the last | 1:07:54 | 1:07:57 | |
year. That is a 20% increase
compared to the year before. And | 1:07:57 | 1:08:05 | |
those leaving outnumber those
joining and one in four of those | 1:08:05 | 1:08:09 | |
leaving are relatively young. The
Department of Health points out that | 1:08:09 | 1:08:12 | |
in England certainly, there are more
nurses working on hospital wards | 1:08:12 | 1:08:16 | |
today than there were in 2010 but
it's clear the retention of | 1:08:16 | 1:08:21 | |
qualified and experienced nursing
staff is a problem, not just in | 1:08:21 | 1:08:24 | |
England but right across the UK. | 1:08:24 | 1:08:31 | |
We will be speaking to a nurse from
that hospital later. | 1:08:31 | 1:08:35 | |
More details have emerged
of the final days of construction | 1:08:35 | 1:08:38 | |
giant Carillion in a document put
together by the company's chief | 1:08:38 | 1:08:41 | |
executive as he prepared
to declare the firm insolvent. | 1:08:41 | 1:08:43 | |
Steph has been looking
into this and joins us now. | 1:08:43 | 1:08:46 | |
So, what more have we learnt
about how much trouble Carillion | 1:08:46 | 1:08:49 | |
was in? | 1:08:49 | 1:08:50 | |
Yes, because it gives you a real
snapshot of what life was like the | 1:08:50 | 1:08:55 | |
Carillion in the run-up to the
mountain Singh they would be | 1:08:55 | 1:08:58 | |
liquidated. The first big number in
all of this is how much money they | 1:08:58 | 1:09:02 | |
have left on the day that they
announced they were going into | 1:09:02 | 1:09:07 | |
liquidation and its £29 million.
That sounds like an awful lot to us | 1:09:07 | 1:09:11 | |
that if you think the money they
owed was over 1.5 billion, this is | 1:09:11 | 1:09:18 | |
small fry. They couldn't keep the
operations running and that is why | 1:09:18 | 1:09:23 | |
they went into liquidation. There
were lots of meetings with the | 1:09:23 | 1:09:27 | |
government so the Chief Executive
has been saying they met in October. | 1:09:27 | 1:09:32 | |
They met with the government to try
and find some way to keep the | 1:09:32 | 1:09:37 | |
business going and in particular,
get the banks off their backs | 1:09:37 | 1:09:41 | |
because that was the problem. The
banks, several banks involved, all | 1:09:41 | 1:09:44 | |
big High Street names, they were
wanting their money back. That all | 1:09:44 | 1:09:50 | |
came to a head on the 31st of
December. They put in a formal | 1:09:50 | 1:09:56 | |
request to the government which
involved them wanting a guarantee | 1:09:56 | 1:10:02 | |
for four months that the government
would cover their payments if they | 1:10:02 | 1:10:06 | |
couldn't afford to repay the banks.
They also wanted to defer their tax | 1:10:06 | 1:10:10 | |
payments that they owed. The
government said no to this. Then, | 1:10:10 | 1:10:17 | |
following that process, they
couldn't continue to run. The banks | 1:10:17 | 1:10:20 | |
were wanting their money back and
they couldn't afford to pay and keep | 1:10:20 | 1:10:24 | |
up with it. That's when they went
into liquidation. The business would | 1:10:24 | 1:10:32 | |
have to start recouping that money.
That's why it went into liquidation. | 1:10:32 | 1:10:36 | |
They couldn't put it into
administration because there wasn't | 1:10:36 | 1:10:42 | |
enough money in the pot. Since then,
lots of questions about how on Earth | 1:10:42 | 1:10:48 | |
did they ever get to this point
where such a huge company, much more | 1:10:48 | 1:10:53 | |
in the supply chain. Now there is a
fast-tracked investigation which is | 1:10:53 | 1:11:00 | |
not a shock to anyone because people
want to know, has there been | 1:11:00 | 1:11:05 | |
mismanagement? | 1:11:05 | 1:11:11 | |
mismanagement? I know you will be
continuing to talk about it. | 1:11:11 | 1:11:17 | |
Police in California have praised
the bravery of the 17-year-old girl | 1:11:17 | 1:11:20 | |
who escaped from the home
where she and her 12 siblings | 1:11:20 | 1:11:24 | |
were allegedly being held
captive by their parents. | 1:11:24 | 1:11:28 | |
David and Louise Turpin -
whose children range in age from two | 1:11:28 | 1:11:31 | |
to 29 - are due to appear
in court later this week, | 1:11:31 | 1:11:34 | |
charged with torture
and child endangerment. | 1:11:34 | 1:11:36 | |
Investigators say they had had no
previous contacts with the couple. | 1:11:36 | 1:11:39 | |
Donald Trump has been given a clean
bill of health by his doctor, | 1:11:39 | 1:11:42 | |
following his first medical
as commander-in-chief. | 1:11:42 | 1:11:44 | |
Dr Ronny Jackson said
the President was in good shape | 1:11:44 | 1:11:47 | |
for his age, but could benefit
from a lower-fat diet | 1:11:47 | 1:11:49 | |
and more exercise. | 1:11:49 | 1:11:54 | |
He also said he had "no concerns"
about Mr Trump's cognitive ability. | 1:11:54 | 1:11:57 | |
The examination also
flagged up the medication | 1:11:57 | 1:11:59 | |
that the President takes,
including a drug to combat hair | 1:11:59 | 1:12:01 | |
loss, and a daily asprin. | 1:12:01 | 1:12:03 | |
As part of his medical the President
took part in a cognitive awareness | 1:12:03 | 1:12:06 | |
test. | 1:12:06 | 1:12:10 | |
I think we can show it to you. We
both got one here. A scientific test | 1:12:10 | 1:12:22 | |
called the Montreal scientific
cognitive assessment test and | 1:12:22 | 1:12:26 | |
imagine a lot of people would be
looking at this test. It asks some | 1:12:26 | 1:12:34 | |
questions, and there are a sequence
of letters here. You have to tap | 1:12:34 | 1:12:38 | |
your hand. It's an early onset
dementia test, isn't it? 30 out of | 1:12:38 | 1:12:46 | |
30, which you would hope he would
get. | 1:12:46 | 1:12:49 | |
The Bayeux Tapestry is to return
to Britain for the first time | 1:12:49 | 1:12:53 | |
since it was made
in the 11th century. | 1:12:53 | 1:12:55 | |
The 70m-long embroidery,
which tells the story of the Battle | 1:12:55 | 1:12:58 | |
of Hastings, has been kept in France
for the last 950 years but will go | 1:12:58 | 1:13:05 | |
on display in Britain
after months of talks. | 1:13:05 | 1:13:07 | |
The BBC understands that
French President Emmanuel Macron | 1:13:07 | 1:13:14 | |
will confirm the loan when he meets
Theresa May tomorrow. | 1:13:14 | 1:13:18 | |
It's not a tapestry, it's an
embroidery. I have some more Bayeux | 1:13:18 | 1:13:24 | |
tapestry facts for you later on. | 1:13:24 | 1:13:26 | |
"A dangerous and downward spiral" - | 1:13:26 | 1:13:28 | |
that's how nursing leaders have
described the news that thousands | 1:13:28 | 1:13:31 | |
more nurses left the NHS
last year than joined. | 1:13:31 | 1:13:33 | |
BBC analysis of health service
data has shown that over | 1:13:33 | 1:13:36 | |
33,000 walked away from already
under-staffed wards. | 1:13:36 | 1:13:38 | |
Our health correspondent
Dominic Hughes has been | 1:13:38 | 1:13:39 | |
finding out why. | 1:13:39 | 1:13:47 | |
She became a nurse to help people,
excited at the prospect of making a | 1:13:48 | 1:13:53 | |
difference but in the end, the job
overwhelmed Mary Trevelyan. I would | 1:13:53 | 1:13:58 | |
end up in tears during a shift
because there was just so much | 1:13:58 | 1:14:03 | |
pressure and stress. A never-ending
list of things to do. Guilt over not | 1:14:03 | 1:14:07 | |
having enough time to care for
patients, stress leading to | 1:14:07 | 1:14:12 | |
depression and Mary has had to leave
the job she loved. I want to be a | 1:14:12 | 1:14:17 | |
great nurse and I want to give my
patients my best but I feel I can't | 1:14:17 | 1:14:22 | |
do that at the moment because we are
just too short staffed, too busy. | 1:14:22 | 1:14:26 | |
There are far too many things for us
to be doing. We have analysed the | 1:14:26 | 1:14:32 | |
number of nurses working in the NHS
in England. Last year, more than | 1:14:32 | 1:14:37 | |
33,000 nurses walked away from their
health service jobs. That's a 20% | 1:14:37 | 1:14:42 | |
rise compared to four years ago and
those leaving outnumber those | 1:14:42 | 1:14:48 | |
joining. And almost one in four of
those leaving are relatively young, | 1:14:48 | 1:14:52 | |
under 30. All of this has
potentially serious implications for | 1:14:52 | 1:14:58 | |
a sustainable nursing profession.
Unless we can actually improve the | 1:14:58 | 1:15:04 | |
number of nurses that there to
support the new nurses coming in, it | 1:15:04 | 1:15:08 | |
becomes a continuous vicious cycle
where people won't want to stay | 1:15:08 | 1:15:12 | |
because they've not got the support
the workplace. Many nurses are | 1:15:12 | 1:15:17 | |
thinking about or have already left
the profession and let's just one | 1:15:17 | 1:15:21 | |
reason why so many hospitals are
struggling to recruit properly | 1:15:21 | 1:15:26 | |
trained staff. Yet the government
tells us thousands more nurses are | 1:15:26 | 1:15:31 | |
working in the NHS today than they
were in 2010. In order to retain | 1:15:31 | 1:15:35 | |
staff to keep them on the books,
they need to give them new | 1:15:35 | 1:15:39 | |
opportunities. And that's what
nurses like Sarah Dalby are making | 1:15:39 | 1:15:42 | |
the most of. She is now able to
perform surgery thanks to specialist | 1:15:42 | 1:15:48 | |
training, developing new skills
which are taken a long way from the | 1:15:48 | 1:15:52 | |
traditional norm nursing role. It is
always nice to have an option to | 1:15:52 | 1:15:55 | |
develop into another pathway or
opportunity of that's what you want | 1:15:55 | 1:15:59 | |
to do, it's not for everyone,
because nursing is so varied and | 1:15:59 | 1:16:03 | |
it's so privileged to be a nurse
because patients, they are so | 1:16:03 | 1:16:08 | |
vulnerable and it's certainly
challenging at the moment but that | 1:16:08 | 1:16:11 | |
doesn't take away from what we are
doing as a career. Mary has not | 1:16:11 | 1:16:15 | |
turned her back on nursing
altogether. Like some of her | 1:16:15 | 1:16:19 | |
friends, she is now thinking of
working abroad but today's NHS is | 1:16:19 | 1:16:23 | |
not further and many other nurses
appear to be reaching a similar | 1:16:23 | 1:16:26 | |
conclusion. | 1:16:26 | 1:16:33 | |
This is a chief nurse. Good morning.
Thank you for joining us. You are a | 1:16:33 | 1:16:40 | |
chief nurse. I understand your
nurses are not leaving in the same | 1:16:40 | 1:16:46 | |
kinds of numbers. Is that the case?
That is correct. Good morning. We | 1:16:46 | 1:16:54 | |
are slightly more fortunate to be in
a better position. There are many | 1:16:54 | 1:16:59 | |
factors. First of all, thank you to
the BBC for putting the focus on | 1:16:59 | 1:17:05 | |
nursing. Everything we said in those
interviews, you picked it up. | 1:17:05 | 1:17:09 | |
Nursing is the best job in the
world. After 35 years, I think it is | 1:17:09 | 1:17:14 | |
the best job in the world. We have
to put in a lot of work to make sure | 1:17:14 | 1:17:22 | |
they stay. There are many factors.
It is a complex issue. We need to | 1:17:22 | 1:17:29 | |
keep them in the job now. Listen to
what we have to say. Make sure we | 1:17:29 | 1:17:34 | |
get them in. We need programmes to
get them in. You are correct. | 1:17:34 | 1:17:41 | |
Talking to anyone treated in the
NHS, nurses come up so highly. They | 1:17:41 | 1:17:46 | |
are well respected and wonderful
staff. These are some of the issues. | 1:17:46 | 1:17:50 | |
One of them we talked about was the
guilt from nurses about not having | 1:17:50 | 1:17:54 | |
enough time to look after patients
and do their job. Is that something | 1:17:54 | 1:18:00 | |
you hear people talk about? Yeah. I
think... Now more than ever you see | 1:18:00 | 1:18:07 | |
on all of the media the NHS is under
massive stress. We are in the midst | 1:18:07 | 1:18:14 | |
of winter and have the flu and
people are working incredibly hard. | 1:18:14 | 1:18:18 | |
We have to look after staff as they
work so hard and ask them what we | 1:18:18 | 1:18:24 | |
can do to help them, involve them in
decision-making, make it more | 1:18:24 | 1:18:28 | |
flexible in how we look at it.
Actually, working nights and days, | 1:18:28 | 1:18:35 | |
we have to say what can we do to be
more flexible and keep you in? I | 1:18:35 | 1:18:41 | |
have these student nurses coming in.
I tell them what an amazing job it | 1:18:41 | 1:18:46 | |
is. We have to talk to them and see
what they have to do. Then they will | 1:18:46 | 1:18:53 | |
come and work for us after training.
We need to do that to get them in. | 1:18:53 | 1:18:58 | |
But when they are down and are
having difficult shifts, talk to | 1:18:58 | 1:19:01 | |
them after those. What was it? What
could we do to make it better? How | 1:19:01 | 1:19:07 | |
can we support you? We know, because
all of the research tells us, happy | 1:19:07 | 1:19:12 | |
staff means happy patients. We have
to work with them and work well, and | 1:19:12 | 1:19:21 | |
listen to them, that is how we will
make it better. Have you got the | 1:19:21 | 1:19:25 | |
resources to bring in that support?
OK, so, I think it would be kind of | 1:19:25 | 1:19:31 | |
easy to blame on resources and money
and, don't get me wrong, there is an | 1:19:31 | 1:19:36 | |
element of that. We know the issues
of finance. But what we have to do | 1:19:36 | 1:19:40 | |
as nurse leaders is look at what we
can do. Get active recruitment in. | 1:19:40 | 1:19:45 | |
At the moment, we are struggling.
Nurses have lost their bursary. It | 1:19:45 | 1:19:52 | |
is hard to get the man when you have
to pay £9,000 and have the privilege | 1:19:52 | 1:19:57 | |
of working nights and | 1:19:57 | 1:19:58 | |
shifts. -- them in. I have lost
mature nurses because they cannot | 1:19:58 | 1:20:06 | |
afford it. The ones that tend to
stay, they are mature nurses. We | 1:20:06 | 1:20:18 | |
have to find ways to get them in and
different ways of working and when | 1:20:18 | 1:20:22 | |
they are in, work through them. You
are clearly incredibly passionate | 1:20:22 | 1:20:25 | |
about your job, and a breath of
fresh air. Thank you indeed for | 1:20:25 | 1:20:29 | |
talking to us. Thank you. Thank you
for giving us the opportunity. Thank | 1:20:29 | 1:20:34 | |
you very much. Is it wrong but I
love her. I don't think you are | 1:20:34 | 1:20:46 | |
alone in that. She is wonderful. We
get repeated messages from everyone | 1:20:46 | 1:20:52 | |
about how much was that we have for
doctors and nurses. We moan about | 1:20:52 | 1:20:57 | |
the NHS because we are passionate
about it and we care about it and it | 1:20:57 | 1:21:01 | |
means so much to so many people for
so many good reasons, and this, her, | 1:21:01 | 1:21:06 | |
that is one of those reasons. And
another favourite of mine is | 1:21:06 | 1:21:11 | |
that is one of those reasons. And
another favourite of mine is Carol. | 1:21:11 | 1:21:12 | |
Good morning. There is a lot going
on with the weather. Look at the | 1:21:12 | 1:21:19 | |
snow depths. | 1:21:19 | 1:21:23 | |
Almost 15 inches as the maximum. | 1:21:23 | 1:21:33 | |
Overnight, we have seen snow and
strong winds. | 1:21:33 | 1:21:41 | |
strong winds. Blizzards on higher
routes, and snow. The risk of ice. | 1:21:41 | 1:21:46 | |
Take care. Listen to the radio
station and me. A weather warning | 1:21:46 | 1:21:52 | |
for Northern Ireland in Scotland for
snow and ice. 8pm, snow will still | 1:21:52 | 1:22:00 | |
fall in Northern Ireland, Scotland,
and northern England, but less | 1:22:00 | 1:22:02 | |
intense. Strong winds overnight low
that around we'll ease a touch. | 1:22:02 | 1:22:09 | |
Showers further south. Fairly rare.
However, if you catch one, it could | 1:22:09 | 1:22:15 | |
be heavy and at lower levels mostly
of rain through the day. Some sleet | 1:22:15 | 1:22:22 | |
and hail. Today and in the next
couple of days, strong winds coupled | 1:22:22 | 1:22:26 | |
with spring tides in the
south-western and western areas. | 1:22:26 | 1:22:29 | |
Large waves crashing on shore. In
the south, showers. Sunshine. | 1:22:29 | 1:22:36 | |
Despite that, cold. The north, snow
in Scotland, part of northern | 1:22:36 | 1:22:41 | |
England, and Northern Ireland as
well. It will feel cold here as | 1:22:41 | 1:22:45 | |
well. Not out of the woods yet. A
temporary lull, but the next area is | 1:22:45 | 1:22:55 | |
coming our way. What it will do is
introduce heavy rain, gales, and | 1:22:55 | 1:23:00 | |
also snow. If we stop this chart at
8pm this evening, you will see rain. | 1:23:00 | 1:23:05 | |
Snow in Northern Ireland mainly in
the hills, more likely in the north, | 1:23:05 | 1:23:09 | |
but hill snow in Wales. Beyond that
into tomorrow morning, look at this, | 1:23:09 | 1:23:16 | |
the snow turns heavier as it crosses
northern England into southern | 1:23:16 | 1:23:20 | |
Scotland. Possibly far north as the
Central Lowlands. The rain rattles | 1:23:20 | 1:23:26 | |
across England and Wales. | 1:23:26 | 1:23:34 | |
across England and Wales. Inland, 50
miles per hour. Liverpool could have | 1:23:34 | 1:23:36 | |
70. The risk of ice tomorrow
morning. Early on, if you are | 1:23:36 | 1:23:44 | |
travelling in the east, you could
still see snow in the north-east of | 1:23:44 | 1:23:48 | |
England and towards Lincolnshire.
Indeed, on the coast, sleek. Inland, | 1:23:48 | 1:23:53 | |
you do not have to go too far inland
to see the snow. Further disruption | 1:23:53 | 1:23:59 | |
caused by those elements tomorrow
first thing. Keep in touch. What I | 1:23:59 | 1:24:04 | |
can tell you is it moves across
quite quickly. Sunshine. Still many | 1:24:04 | 1:24:11 | |
showers coming in from the west, and
it will still feel cold. But then, | 1:24:11 | 1:24:15 | |
it is winter. | 1:24:15 | 1:24:17 | |
it will still feel cold. But then,
it is winter. Good point. Thank you. | 1:24:17 | 1:24:20 | |
A good warning about that weather
all week. | 1:24:20 | 1:24:29 | |
David and Louise Turpin projected
an image of a picture-perfect family | 1:24:29 | 1:24:32 | |
on social media, posting photos
of themselves with their 13 | 1:24:32 | 1:24:35 | |
children, smiling as they celebrated
birthdays, renewed wedding vows | 1:24:35 | 1:24:37 | |
and visited Disneyland together. | 1:24:37 | 1:24:39 | |
But behind the smiles lay
a very different story. | 1:24:39 | 1:24:41 | |
The couple has been accused
of torture and child endangerment | 1:24:41 | 1:24:44 | |
after their children were found
shackled and malnourished | 1:24:44 | 1:24:46 | |
in their Californian home. | 1:24:46 | 1:24:50 | |
Thank you for coming in on the
programme this morning. Can I ask | 1:24:50 | 1:24:54 | |
you first of all, and, obviously,
this is your line of work but what | 1:24:54 | 1:24:59 | |
did you think when you heard about
the details of this extraordinary | 1:24:59 | 1:25:02 | |
story? I thought it was horrendous
and tragic. It is a bit puzzling it | 1:25:02 | 1:25:07 | |
could have gone on for such a long
time without being identified. The | 1:25:07 | 1:25:10 | |
key point is they have been
identified and they will receive | 1:25:10 | 1:25:15 | |
rehabilitation and parents will be
charged. There is a huge age range. | 1:25:15 | 1:25:20 | |
The 2-year-old is the youngest, 29
is the oldest. From your experience, | 1:25:20 | 1:25:25 | |
how are those different ages? How
will they process what is going on? | 1:25:25 | 1:25:32 | |
The two has the best prognosis. They
likely have little language | 1:25:32 | 1:25:37 | |
development at the age of two, so it
will be difficult to remember it. It | 1:25:37 | 1:25:43 | |
is like they will not have memory of
it. If they have good care in their | 1:25:43 | 1:25:50 | |
life, they will have a good
prognosis. We do not know how long | 1:25:50 | 1:25:53 | |
the abuse has been going on for, if
it got worse over the years. The 17 | 1:25:53 | 1:26:02 | |
to 2090 roles, they will have
difficulty. -- 29-year-olds. The | 1:26:02 | 1:26:13 | |
17-year-old cried out for help,
meaning she knew something was | 1:26:13 | 1:26:17 | |
wrong. I was looking at the details.
Those who are older feel protective | 1:26:17 | 1:26:25 | |
of each other. How could that
manifests? It is normal. They were | 1:26:25 | 1:26:30 | |
not just be protective, but their
parents, primary caregivers, despite | 1:26:30 | 1:26:38 | |
how bad the treatment was, they will
have had experience as prime | 1:26:38 | 1:26:44 | |
caregivers. They will be treated for
malnourishment and psychological | 1:26:44 | 1:26:49 | |
effects, but they will also be
experiencing loss of primary | 1:26:49 | 1:26:52 | |
caregivers and confusion. They have
a difficult road ahead. Of course, | 1:26:52 | 1:26:58 | |
they may have supported each other
through the process. Services will | 1:26:58 | 1:27:02 | |
consider whether to keep them
together and whether, you know, how | 1:27:02 | 1:27:06 | |
best they will be helped. This must
have shocked many people all across | 1:27:06 | 1:27:13 | |
the world. Is this incredibly rare?
It does not seem to be, | 1:27:13 | 1:27:21 | |
unfortunately. We have cases like
this all around the world. Wind that | 1:27:21 | 1:27:25 | |
springs to mind is to so far it's
all. | 1:27:25 | 1:27:38 | |
all. -- One that springs to mind it
Joseph Fritzel. We hear of these | 1:27:38 | 1:27:42 | |
cases, so it is not unprecedented.
The abuse that took place in Austria | 1:27:42 | 1:27:45 | |
at the | 1:27:45 | 1:27:55 | |
at the hands of Joseph went on 21
years, very lengthy. The eldest in | 1:28:01 | 1:28:04 | |
this case is 29 and that could be
how long she was abused for. How do | 1:28:04 | 1:28:09 | |
you keep so many children with such
a huge age range together? What an | 1:28:09 | 1:28:12 | |
extraordinary story. | 1:28:12 | 1:28:13 | |
Still to come on Breakfast. | 1:28:13 | 1:28:14 | |
2018 marks 100 years of the Royal
Air Force. To celebrate, the RAF is | 1:28:14 | 1:28:18 | |
reforming its most famous squadron.
Sophie Raworth can tell us more. | 1:28:18 | 1:28:21 | |
Good morning. Good morning. Look at
this. I am in the | 1:28:21 | 1:28:29 | |
this. I am in the cockpit of the
RAF's state-of-the-art F38 | 1:28:33 | 1:28:35 | |
Lightning. This is just a prototype.
They will form the | 1:28:35 | 1:28:45 | |
They will form the famous RAF
squadron that carried out the dam | 1:28:48 | 1:28:50 | |
busting raid. I have been to meet
the last surviving member of the | 1:28:50 | 1:28:53 | |
group. We will also look at what
this can do. I will just | 1:28:53 | 1:29:02 | |
Hello this is Breakfast,
with Louise Minchin and Dan Walker. | 1:32:34 | 1:32:42 | |
Snow and ice are causing serious
problems on roads across Scotland, | 1:32:46 | 1:32:49 | |
Northern Ireland and northern
England with drivers stranded | 1:32:49 | 1:32:51 | |
on long queues on the 74 motorway. | 1:32:51 | 1:32:53 | |
Rescue teams are helping motorists
| 1:32:53 | 1:32:57 | |
and motorists are being
advised not to drive. | 1:32:57 | 1:33:03 | |
Schools are closed in Northern
Ireland. We also know that there are | 1:33:03 | 1:33:06 | |
people stuck on the em 74. Still,
people stuck there. Snow on the | 1:33:06 | 1:33:13 | |
north. Mountain rescue are checking
on people. We will keep you | 1:33:13 | 1:33:16 | |
up-to-date. Carol is keeping us
up-to-date. | 1:33:16 | 1:33:22 | |
We spoke to someone earlier on today
who got home just before 6:15 a.m.. | 1:33:22 | 1:33:29 | |
And it left the night before. | 1:33:29 | 1:33:32 | |
More nurses left the health service
in England last year than joined - | 1:33:32 | 1:33:35 | |
the first time in 5 years
that there's been a net | 1:33:35 | 1:33:38 | |
reduction in staff. | 1:33:38 | 1:33:46 | |

the first time in 5 years
that there's been a net | 1:33:51 | 1:33:54 | |
reduction in staff. | 1:33:54 | 1:33:55 | |
BBC analysis of NHS data found that
just over 33,000 nurses left | 1:33:55 | 1:33:58 | |
the service - 3,000
more than signed up. | 1:33:58 | 1:34:00 | |
The Royal College of Nursing says
experienced staff are leaving | 1:34:00 | 1:34:03 | |
because they're demoralised. | 1:34:03 | 1:34:04 | |
NHS England's Chief Nursing Officer
says despite pressures, | 1:34:04 | 1:34:06 | |
front line staff are still
providing good care. | 1:34:06 | 1:34:08 | |
There are other places that we know
people are staying despite those | 1:34:08 | 1:34:11 | |
pressures because they know the care
they give is fantastic, | 1:34:11 | 1:34:14 | |
they are working under enormous
pressure, absolutely. | 1:34:14 | 1:34:16 | |
The challenges over the past few
months in particular have been | 1:34:16 | 1:34:19 | |
significant, probably more than most
of them have ever seen | 1:34:19 | 1:34:21 | |
but they are still in,
they are still working, | 1:34:21 | 1:34:24 | |
they are still providing good care. | 1:34:24 | 1:34:26 | |
Police in California have praised
the bravery of the 17-year-old girl | 1:34:26 | 1:34:29 | |

David and Louise Turpin -
whose children range in age from 2 | 1:34:42 | 1:34:45 | |
to 29 - are due to appear
in court later this week, | 1:34:45 | 1:34:48 | |
charged with torture
and child endangerment. | 1:34:48 | 1:34:50 | |
Investigators say they had had no
previous contacts with the couple. | 1:34:50 | 1:34:53 | |
Donald Trump has been advised to eat
a lower fat diet and take more | 1:34:53 | 1:34:57 | |

However the White House doctor
says the President - | 1:34:59 | 1:35:01 | |
who's 71 - is generally in excellent

You are keeping me on tenterhooks.
We know people have been stuck | 1:35:35 | 1:35:41 | |
overnight. Let's speak to Jordan
Gray who has been there all night | 1:35:41 | 1:35:45 | |
and is still there. Just tell us
where you are. How long have you | 1:35:45 | 1:35:49 | |
been there? We have been here for
six hours. We are eventually moving | 1:35:49 | 1:35:56 | |
now. Just tell us, what the
conditions have been like overnight | 1:35:56 | 1:36:02 | |
for you. She's been -- it's been on
and off all night. You have been in | 1:36:02 | 1:36:13 | |
your car. Did you have any
suppliers? No. How have you been? | 1:36:13 | 1:36:18 | |
How did you keep warm? My mum has
been putting the car on and off to | 1:36:18 | 1:36:24 | |
keep heating the car. Just wearing
jackets. You had no food, nothing to | 1:36:24 | 1:36:30 | |
drink? We had a bottle of sprites
that was in the boot. Just one | 1:36:30 | 1:36:37 | |
bottle between you all night. When
you first got stuck, how long did | 1:36:37 | 1:36:41 | |
you wake and did you see mountain
rescue during the night? We saw | 1:36:41 | 1:36:47 | |
mountain rescue once. It was about
four o'clock in the morning. We were | 1:36:47 | 1:36:53 | |
stuck around about three hours. As
you ugly, whether other cars around | 1:36:53 | 1:37:00 | |
you? Nobody really got out apart
from seeing how bad the queue was. | 1:37:00 | 1:37:10 | |
You are moving now, so how long
should this journey have taken you? | 1:37:10 | 1:37:16 | |
20 minutes. And you are up to six
hours. Seven hours, it's been. Were | 1:37:16 | 1:37:24 | |
you worried overnight? Not really. | 1:37:24 | 1:37:32 | |
you worried overnight? Not really. I
was just kind of hoping to go home. | 1:37:32 | 1:37:35 | |
I was supposed to be at work. Oh,
goodness me. I am sure they will | 1:37:35 | 1:37:44 | |
realise why you are late. Talking to

Sir Andy Flurry. It's good fun, | 1:38:45 | 1:38:52 | |
isn't it? And wasn't there in
itsy-bitsy teeny-weeny yellow salt | 1:38:52 | 1:38:58 | |
spreading machine he? We also have a
good pub question. | 1:38:58 | 1:39:06 | |
A new one was born overnight. | 1:39:06 | 1:39:08 | |
Who scored the first goal to be
awarded by the video assistant | 1:39:08 | 1:39:12 | |
referee, in English football ? | 1:39:12 | 1:39:13 | |
Kelechi Iheanacho put Leicester 1
nil ahead against the League One | 1:39:13 | 1:39:16 | |
side at the King Power. | 1:39:16 | 1:39:17 | |
And then came his second, | 1:39:17 | 1:39:25 | |
at first ruled offside
by the linesman, referred to the VAR | 1:39:28 | 1:39:31 | |
and after careful consideration
he was judged to have been onside. | 1:39:31 | 1:39:39 | |
We were a lot better
obviously on the first leg, | 1:39:40 | 1:39:46 | |
we knew that we had to perform
a lot better and be a bit | 1:39:46 | 1:39:50 | |
more professional on the pitch. | 1:39:50 | 1:39:51 | |
We have done that tonight,
got the result and this man has got | 1:39:51 | 1:39:55 | |
the goals and it shows
that VAR does work. | 1:39:55 | 1:39:59 | |
There were no upsets in any of last
night's other four replays. | 1:39:59 | 1:40:02 | |
West Ham were taken to extra time
by League One Shrewsbury, | 1:40:02 | 1:40:05 | |
but the Premier League
side made it through. | 1:40:05 | 1:40:07 | |
Cardiff, Sheffield Wednesday
and Reading are also | 1:40:07 | 1:40:09 | |
through to the fourth round. | 1:40:09 | 1:40:11 | |
Ronnie O'Sullivan rattled
through his first round match | 1:40:11 | 1:40:13 | |
at the Masters snooker allowing
Marco Fu to pot only 8 balls in a 6 | 1:40:13 | 1:40:17 | |
frames | 1:40:17 | 1:40:18 | |
to nil thrashing. | 1:40:18 | 1:40:23 | |
O'Sullivan's won this tournament
a record seven times. | 1:40:23 | 1:40:25 | |
And he made three century breaks
in the first four frames in a match | 1:40:25 | 1:40:29 | |
that only lasted just over an hour
and a half at Alexandra | 1:40:29 | 1:40:32 | |
Palace. | 1:40:32 | 1:40:32 | |
Amazingly Ronnie reckoned
he's wasn't at his best. | 1:40:32 | 1:40:34 | |
I have a virus or something
and I just felt very dizzy | 1:40:34 | 1:40:38 | |
and I felt sort of... | 1:40:38 | 1:40:39 | |
Really? | 1:40:39 | 1:40:39 | |
You looked in good form. | 1:40:39 | 1:40:41 | |
I just played off instinct -
don't think, just pot balls - | 1:40:41 | 1:40:44 | |
but really struggling
over the last 5, 6 days. | 1:40:44 | 1:40:46 | |
Have you been struggling
with illness? | 1:40:46 | 1:40:48 | |
No, I've just been feeling dizzy. | 1:40:48 | 1:40:50 | |
You couldn't give it to me? | 1:40:50 | 1:40:51 | |
I could do with a few days... | 1:40:51 | 1:40:53 | |
Maybe a lack of magnesium
I was told, but I have been eating | 1:40:53 | 1:40:57 | |
well for the last few months. | 1:40:57 | 1:41:02 | |
Lack of magnesium, he needs to eat a
banana. | 1:41:02 | 1:41:07 | |
Britain's Kyle Edmund
has reached the third | 1:41:07 | 1:41:08 | |
round of the Australian Open
for the first time. | 1:41:08 | 1:41:11 | |
The British number two beat
Denis Istomin from Uzbekistan | 1:41:11 | 1:41:13 | |
in straight sets. | 1:41:13 | 1:41:14 | |
Edmund goes on to face world number
61 Nikoloz Basilashvili of Georgia | 1:41:14 | 1:41:17 | |
next. | 1:41:17 | 1:41:18 | |
Rafa Nadal is on court right now
against Leonardo Mayer. | 1:41:18 | 1:41:22 | |
Coverage of that and all the action,
including a hard fought victory | 1:41:22 | 1:41:25 | |
for number two seed
Caroline Wozniacki, | 1:41:25 | 1:41:27 | |
is on Five Live Sports Extra
and the BBC Sport website. | 1:41:27 | 1:41:35 | |
Where you can also see pictures
of a confused Roger Federer. | 1:41:35 | 1:41:38 | |
He's having a day off
today but yesterday, | 1:41:38 | 1:41:40 | |
after reaching the second round,
had to face some tough questions | 1:41:40 | 1:41:43 | |
from American actor Will Ferrell,
in the guise of character | 1:41:43 | 1:41:46 | |
Ron Burgundy from
the film Anchorman. | 1:41:46 | 1:41:49 | |
Tonight you seemed like a gazelle
out there on the court. | 1:41:49 | 1:41:53 | |
Would you describe your game
as a silky gazelle? | 1:41:53 | 1:41:58 | |
Maybe. | 1:41:58 | 1:42:00 | |
Maybe not. | 1:42:00 | 1:42:05 | |
Don't they get eaten at the end? | 1:42:05 | 1:42:09 | |
Not if they're fast enough. | 1:42:09 | 1:42:16 | |
Ron Burgundy proving that he is not
the sports specialist. We got our | 1:42:16 | 1:42:25 | |
people mixed up. Champ is the sports
guide. Brick is the weatherman. | 1:42:25 | 1:42:36 | |
Thousands of contractors with the
group Carillion are waiting to hear | 1:42:36 | 1:42:42 | |
on their futures.
As we said right when we first | 1:42:42 | 1:42:45 | |
announced this news. In terms of the
business that they do. | 1:42:45 | 1:42:57 | |
business that they do. That is what
they are talking about this morning. | 1:42:57 | 1:43:04 | |
There are a lot of answered
questions of the thousands of people | 1:43:04 | 1:43:09 | |
who work for them as well. One of
those who lost his job on Monday is | 1:43:09 | 1:43:14 | |
Philip Ellis. Walking to work,
thinking you are about to do a days | 1:43:14 | 1:43:18 | |
work, to be told you laid off. You
can't describe how you feel at that | 1:43:18 | 1:43:24 | |
point in time. Everybody was the
same, all scratching their heads. | 1:43:24 | 1:43:30 | |
What are you going to do next? The
only option I've got is to try | 1:43:30 | 1:43:35 | |
another job. What are my chances? So
what are the prospects of a | 1:43:35 | 1:43:44 | |
construction workers like Philip who
found themselves without a job. Tom | 1:43:44 | 1:43:48 | |
Hadley is from the recruitment and
employment generation. Good morning | 1:43:48 | 1:43:53 | |
to you. What are the prospects to
someone like Philip? Are quite good. | 1:43:53 | 1:44:00 | |
We track the situation and members
are saying it's getting harder and | 1:44:00 | 1:44:07 | |
harder to find staff. There is a big
demand for construction workers. One | 1:44:07 | 1:44:11 | |
of the top three shortage areas is
construction. We hopefully can work | 1:44:11 | 1:44:17 | |
with agencies for the strong demand.
When we spoke to Phillip, we found | 1:44:17 | 1:44:23 | |
out as soon as he lost his job, he
went straight on the phone, | 1:44:23 | 1:44:27 | |
specifically construction ones and
they were telling him you are one of | 1:44:27 | 1:44:32 | |
many from Carillion ringing us. What
about in the short-term? That is the | 1:44:32 | 1:44:37 | |
hard thing. Bills to pay, he will
need the money. A further million | 1:44:37 | 1:44:47 | |
plus in temporary work every single
week. It might take time. Recruiters | 1:44:47 | 1:44:52 | |
will be getting a lot of calls at
the moment. It might be they can't | 1:44:52 | 1:44:57 | |
put you straight into a job but
register with them and they will be | 1:44:57 | 1:45:03 | |
able to give you advice. Where they
are going to need staff because a | 1:45:03 | 1:45:06 | |
lot of these things are going to
need to be built. Demand is strong | 1:45:06 | 1:45:10 | |
in construction as in other sectors.
The thing about Carillion, it is a | 1:45:10 | 1:45:16 | |
company which covers so many
different types of jobs. Everything | 1:45:16 | 1:45:21 | |
from school cooks to cleaners in
hospitals. What about the people who | 1:45:21 | 1:45:25 | |
are working in different areas to
worried about job security. It is a | 1:45:25 | 1:45:31 | |
very fragmented supply chain. In the
same way, as we have specialist | 1:45:31 | 1:45:37 | |
recruitment agencies, we have them
in other sectors as well. It could | 1:45:37 | 1:45:41 | |
be IT and engineering and admin
staff. The advice would be to start | 1:45:41 | 1:45:46 | |
putting some feelers out. Speak to
your local job centre all | 1:45:46 | 1:45:50 | |
recruitment agencies and we work
with agencies which is a good | 1:45:50 | 1:45:53 | |
message, look at what the market is
doing but we are also seeing demand | 1:45:53 | 1:45:59 | |
for staff in many different sectors
to this is a difficult time for | 1:45:59 | 1:46:02 | |
individuals but our message is one
of hope, do speak to local | 1:46:02 | 1:46:05 | |
recruiters. We have a vital
recruitment. | 1:46:05 | 1:46:15 | |
Some of these people could have
worked for them for a long time and | 1:46:15 | 1:46:20 | |
may not have refreshed their CV. A
good point. Get advice. Skills of | 1:46:20 | 1:46:26 | |
all. | 1:46:26 | 1:46:34 | |
all. -- evolve. They need to freshen
up their CV. Recruitment | 1:46:34 | 1:46:38 | |
professionals can give advice | 1:46:38 | 1:46:45 | |
professionals can give advice to
help them refresh their CV and | 1:46:51 | 1:46:53 | |
skills and take the next step in
their career. We will talk about | 1:46:53 | 1:46:57 | |
this more. If you have lost your
job, if you have been affected, get | 1:46:57 | 1:47:00 | |
in touch. Thank you. They have been
business story of the week. The | 1:47:00 | 1:47:07 | |
Windsor has | 1:47:07 | 1:47:12 | |
Windsor has been the weather story
of the week. What a picture! -- | 1:47:12 | 1:47:18 | |
winter. Look at the depth of that
snow. It was sent to us from the | 1:47:18 | 1:47:23 | |
highland. Thank you. | 1:47:23 | 1:47:29 | |
highland. Thank you. The snow depths
we have been seeing are on your | 1:47:34 | 1:47:37 | |
screen. 15 inches! | 1:47:37 | 1:47:39 | |
we have been seeing are on your
screen. 15 inches! Some of that will | 1:47:39 | 1:47:45 | |
have been | 1:47:45 | 1:47:55 | |
have been blowing, it drifts, in
overnight. Things improving. Ice, | 1:48:01 | 1:48:03 | |
further disruption still possible.
You can tell it is an improving | 1:48:03 | 1:48:06 | |
situation. Further south, the risk
of ice. Dry weather. Sunshine. Rain | 1:48:06 | 1:48:10 | |
possible. You could see sleek and
hail. -- sleet. Snow showers in | 1:48:10 | 1:48:19 | |
Scotland this afternoon. The
intensity will not be that severe. | 1:48:19 | 1:48:23 | |
Not as widespread. Northern Ireland,
snow showers fading. Dry conditions. | 1:48:23 | 1:48:29 | |
More coming your way. Northern
England, again, less intense | 1:48:29 | 1:48:35 | |
widespread snow showers this
afternoon. Treacherous conditions | 1:48:35 | 1:48:38 | |
left over from this morning. South
of that, the Midlands, Wales, East | 1:48:38 | 1:48:44 | |
Anglia, southern counties generally,
lots of sunshine to be feeling cold. | 1:48:44 | 1:48:48 | |
Showers. Large waves in the west.
What we do have coming our way is a | 1:48:48 | 1:48:57 | |
new area of low pressure. Developing
in the Atlantic get the moment. I | 1:48:57 | 1:49:02 | |
stopped this pressure chart at 8pm
in the evening to show you what you | 1:49:02 | 1:49:08 | |
can expect. Snow on the hills of
Northern Ireland and mostly in the | 1:49:08 | 1:49:12 | |
north of Northern Ireland. The same
in Wales. Hill snow. Look at the | 1:49:12 | 1:49:17 | |
isobars. Squeezed together,
strengthening wind. Moving that | 1:49:17 | 1:49:21 | |
chart forward through the rest of
the night, the snow gets heavier and | 1:49:21 | 1:49:28 | |
gets into southern Scotland,
possibly as far north as the Central | 1:49:28 | 1:49:31 | |
Lowlands. Rattling quickly, and so
will the rain in Wales and the rest | 1:49:31 | 1:49:36 | |
of England, driven by gales. Inland,
wind, 40- 50 miles per hour. Around | 1:49:36 | 1:49:43 | |
the coast, 70. The first thing
tomorrow morning, snow and strong | 1:49:43 | 1:49:48 | |
winds in the east. Clearing after
that. If you are travelling this | 1:49:48 | 1:49:54 | |
evening and tomorrow, tonight, I
should say, severe gales, snow, and | 1:49:54 | 1:49:58 | |
the risk of ice. There could be
disruption. That will clear rapidly. | 1:49:58 | 1:50:03 | |
Tomorrow, sunshine and showers.
Still wintry in the west, though. | 1:50:03 | 1:50:07 | |
Thank you very | 1:50:07 | 1:50:08 | |
Still wintry in the west, though.
Thank you very much indeed. Look at | 1:50:08 | 1:50:10 | |
this. | 1:50:10 | 1:50:15 | |
It's the most famous flying team in
British history. | 1:50:15 | 1:50:18 | |
Now, almost 75 years after carrying
out the daring Dambusters raid, | 1:50:18 | 1:50:21 | |
the RAF's 617 squadron
is being reformed. | 1:50:21 | 1:50:23 | |
It's to mark 100 years
of the Royal British Airforce. | 1:50:23 | 1:50:25 | |
Let's speak to Sophie Raworth,
who's getting a sneak peak | 1:50:25 | 1:50:28 | |
of the new jets the
team will be flying. | 1:50:28 | 1:50:31 | |
And, Sophie, you have a personal
connection with the airforce, | 1:50:31 | 1:50:33 | |
haven't you? | 1:50:33 | 1:50:34 | |
It is lovely to see you on
Breakfast. You have a personal | 1:50:34 | 1:50:37 | |
connection to this. Yes. This is a
daylight bomber. It was taken in | 1:50:37 | 1:50:49 | |
1918 in northern France. A plane
made of wood. This man in the middle | 1:50:49 | 1:50:53 | |
is my grandfather. He was just 18
years old. The sort of planes they | 1:50:53 | 1:50:58 | |
were flying those days are a far cry
from what we have here right now, a | 1:50:58 | 1:51:03 | |
simulator for the | 1:51:03 | 1:51:13 | |
simulator for the brand-new RAF
state-of-the-art F35 Lightning, | 1:51:13 | 1:51:15 | |
arriving in the UK later this year.
When it does, it will form the 617 | 1:51:15 | 1:51:19 | |
Squadron. I have gone to meet one of
the most famous members of the 617 | 1:51:19 | 1:51:23 | |
Squadron, Johnnie Johnson, the last
surviving member. | 1:51:23 | 1:51:29 | |
He is 96 years old at the last
surviving member of World War Two's | 1:51:29 | 1:51:35 | |
famous dambusters raid. He joined
the RAF in 1940, one of many | 1:51:35 | 1:51:43 | |
teenagers signing up to fight for
their country, saying it was | 1:51:43 | 1:51:46 | |
thrilling. I would do the same again
if it throws up. I find that the | 1:51:46 | 1:51:54 | |
satisfaction, personal satisfaction,
of being able to do that, it was | 1:51:54 | 1:51:59 | |
more than anything else, that sort
of thing I felt I was doing | 1:51:59 | 1:52:04 | |
something useful, and doing it well.
It was 75 years ago this may that | 1:52:04 | 1:52:12 | |
the 617 Squadron took off in their
Lancaster bombers in the mission | 1:52:12 | 1:52:17 | |
immortalised in the film to attack
Germany's industrial heartland. The | 1:52:17 | 1:52:26 | |
planes he flew are a world away from
the aircraft used by the RAF | 1:52:26 | 1:52:31 | |
nowadays, and he is fascinated, just
buy the technology on board, but | 1:52:31 | 1:52:36 | |
also the pilots learning to fly. --
not just by the. I would not know | 1:52:36 | 1:52:43 | |
where to begin. It is not a
Lancaster. I have always... Flying | 1:52:43 | 1:52:50 | |
with him is one of the newest
pilots, in order of | 1:52:50 | 1:53:00 | |
pilots, in order of -- in awe of his
stories. Determination and | 1:53:00 | 1:53:05 | |
confidence to know they were doing
what was right for the country. I | 1:53:05 | 1:53:09 | |
have been lucky enough to choose
this role for myself, they were | 1:53:09 | 1:53:13 | |
thrust into it, and did it as they
could. It is more my ability to | 1:53:13 | 1:53:18 | |
measure up to them. He was one of
133 men who took part in the | 1:53:18 | 1:53:23 | |
dambusters raid. 53 of them never
came home. He still remembers that | 1:53:23 | 1:53:27 | |
night vividly. I will never forget
it. The highlight of that trip for | 1:53:27 | 1:53:33 | |
me as we came home, we knew by radio
broadcast the dam was breached. | 1:53:33 | 1:53:44 | |
There was water everywhere. Was | 1:53:44 | 1:53:52 | |
There was water everywhere. Was just
like an endless sea. Evidence of | 1:53:55 | 1:53:57 | |
success. It is gone! We have done
it! It is the most famous in the | 1:53:57 | 1:54:02 | |
history of the Air Force. As they
celebrate theirs and tannery, his | 1:54:02 | 1:54:07 | |
advice to the next generation...
Whatever you do, do it to the best | 1:54:07 | 1:54:12 | |
of your ability. -- centenary. If I
had my time again, I would do the | 1:54:12 | 1:54:18 | |
same again. I would get the same
happiness and enjoyment out of it as | 1:54:18 | 1:54:24 | |
I did back then. Thank you to the
Royal Air Force for providing a | 1:54:24 | 1:54:31 | |
wonderful life for me. It really
was. He was amazed by the technology | 1:54:31 | 1:54:38 | |
in that aircraft. He would be
astounded by this. Because | 1:54:38 | 1:54:51 | |
astounded by this. Because this is
the F35 Lightning, the brand new | 1:54:54 | 1:54:56 | |
state-of-the-art aircraft arriving
in the UK later this year. This is | 1:54:56 | 1:54:59 | |
unlike anything they have had
before. Definitely. I was the Chief | 1:54:59 | 1:55:02 | |
Executive of Lockheed Martin before
that, I was in the Air Force. What | 1:55:02 | 1:55:08 | |
we have seen is an incredible
transformation in terms of | 1:55:08 | 1:55:12 | |
technology. Most of the aircraft I
operated were designed for a | 1:55:12 | 1:55:17 | |
specific role. This aircraft can do
virtually everything, which is | 1:55:17 | 1:55:21 | |
remarkable. It is also incredibly
expensive, around £90 million per | 1:55:21 | 1:55:27 | |
plane. There has been a lot of
controversy around it. The value you | 1:55:27 | 1:55:31 | |
get is this aircraft is designed for
40- 50 years. It has twice the life | 1:55:31 | 1:55:38 | |
of the aircraft were used to fly.
This one has been designed for 7500 | 1:55:38 | 1:55:45 | |
miles. It will be the backbone of
the Royal Navy and air force for | 1:55:45 | 1:55:52 | |
decades to come. The other benefit
is the industrial benefit. The UK is | 1:55:52 | 1:55:57 | |
supporting this programme in a way
which is absolutely incredible. We | 1:55:57 | 1:56:01 | |
have more than 500 companies in the
UK providing about 50% | 1:56:01 | 1:56:10 | |
UK providing about 50% of every F35,
there will be at least 3,000 of | 1:56:10 | 1:56:12 | |
them. To date, we spent $12.9
billion with the UK's supply chain | 1:56:12 | 1:56:19 | |
copy that is a phenomenal investment
into the UK. 3000 F35s. They are in | 1:56:19 | 1:56:27 | |
America. No, sorry, it is 138. There
has been a lot of criticism that the | 1:56:27 | 1:56:36 | |
project is over budget. It is not
only... It is not costing more than | 1:56:36 | 1:56:40 | |
it should, but there have been
technical glitches. MPs on the | 1:56:40 | 1:56:44 | |
Defence Select Committee said there
should be more transparency. I gave | 1:56:44 | 1:56:48 | |
evidence to the committee and gave
all of the technical answers. They | 1:56:48 | 1:56:53 | |
were satisfied. Looking back of
course, it is a development | 1:56:53 | 1:56:58 | |
programme and you will have
challenges on any programme. We have | 1:56:58 | 1:57:03 | |
done to the parliament in production
at the same time, resulting in a | 1:57:03 | 1:57:07 | |
significant reduction in cost. | 1:57:07 | 1:57:14 | |
significant reduction in cost. We
reduced the cost by 40%. I will go | 1:57:14 | 1:57:18 | |
to the here. We have a squadron
leader based in America at the | 1:57:18 | 1:57:21 | |
moment who is learning to fly and is
testing them all out. What is it | 1:57:21 | 1:57:25 | |
like? It is effortless to fly. That
is really the modus operandi of the | 1:57:25 | 1:57:33 | |
F35. By design, it is highly
automated. We wanted to make it so | 1:57:33 | 1:57:37 | |
easy to fly the pilot does not have
to concentrate on that. He needs to | 1:57:37 | 1:57:43 | |
concentrate on operating this
fantastic, phenomenal, the | 1:57:43 | 1:57:46 | |
generation game | 1:57:46 | 1:57:53 | |
generation game changing sensor.
That is what makes us elite. I will | 1:57:53 | 1:57:56 | |
leave you to it. Thank you for
joining us. And he is off. | 1:57:56 | 1:58:05 | |
joining us. And he is off. That made
me quite nervous watching that, even | 1:58:11 | 1:58:14 | |
though it is a simulator. Thank you.
It is lovely to see you on Breakfast | 1:58:14 | 1:58:19 | |
as well. We will be back with her
later on through the morning. Time | 1:58:19 | 2:01:40 | |
to wake up to a frosty start on
Sunday. | 2:01:40 | 2:01:45 | |

Hundreds of drivers stranded
overnight as heavy snow sweeps | 2:01:53 | 2:01:54 | |
across the United Kingdom. Mountain
rescue teams were drafted in as | 2:01:54 | 2:01:58 | |
blizzard conditions left motorists
stuck for more than eight hours on | 2:01:58 | 2:02:06 | |
the M74 in Scotland. Conditions will
ease through the morning, but there | 2:02:06 | 2:02:15 | |
is more on the way. | 2:02:15 | 2:02:26 | |
Breakfast on the BBC on Wednesday
the 17th of January. More nurses are | 2:02:30 | 2:02:36 | |
quitting the NHS in England and join
in. We hear a warning that too many | 2:02:36 | 2:02:40 | |
staff are demoralised by the job.
Fit for office, Donald Trump passes | 2:02:40 | 2:02:45 | |

Carillion owed more than a billion
pounds when it went bust - | 2:02:51 | 2:02:54 | |

Good morning. | 2:03:22 | 2:03:23 | |
First, our main story. | 2:03:23 | 2:03:24 | |
Snow and ice are causing
serious problems on roads | 2:03:24 | 2:03:26 | |
across Scotland, Northern Ireland
and Northern England, | 2:03:26 | 2:03:31 | |
with drivers stranded in long queues
on the M74 motorway overnight. | 2:03:31 | 2:03:33 | |
Mountain rescue teams were drafted
in to help trapped motorists, | 2:03:33 | 2:03:37 | |
and people in Dumfries and Galloway
are being advised not to drive. | 2:03:37 | 2:03:40 | |
Snow has also caused problems
in Northern Ireland, | 2:03:40 | 2:03:43 | |
forcing schools to close
and disrupting public transport. | 2:03:43 | 2:03:46 | |
Ian Palmer reports. | 2:03:46 | 2:03:49 | |
Rescuing the drivers trapped
in their cars overnight | 2:03:49 | 2:03:51 | |
on the main motorway
between England and Scotland. | 2:03:51 | 2:03:53 | |
Heavy snow meant treacherous
conditions for the emergency | 2:03:53 | 2:03:55 | |
services on the M74. | 2:03:55 | 2:04:03 | |
The icy weather kept some
motorists in freezing cars | 2:04:03 | 2:04:05 | |
for more than eight hours. | 2:04:05 | 2:04:07 | |
Very little has been
happening, I'm afraid. | 2:04:07 | 2:04:08 | |
We've barely moved. | 2:04:08 | 2:04:09 | |
I'm not far away from
Motherwell, still. | 2:04:09 | 2:04:11 | |
I think in total,
very little movement. | 2:04:11 | 2:04:15 | |
The M74 runs from
Gretna Green to Glasgow. | 2:04:15 | 2:04:17 | |
The worst problems were between
junctions 12 and 15, | 2:04:17 | 2:04:19 | |
and the wild weather
isn't going away. | 2:04:19 | 2:04:25 | |
The Met office has issued
a number of Amber warnings | 2:04:25 | 2:04:28 | |
for Central Tayside and Fife,
Dumfries, Galloway, | 2:04:28 | 2:04:31 | |
Lothian and Borders,
Strathclyde and Northern Ireland. | 2:04:31 | 2:04:36 | |
On the Isle of Skye,
the main road was closed for several | 2:04:36 | 2:04:39 | |
hours in both directions
by a jackknifed lorry. | 2:04:39 | 2:04:43 | |
Two buses carrying pupils
were forced to return | 2:04:43 | 2:04:45 | |
to school for the night. | 2:04:45 | 2:04:48 | |
We've had people who have been stuck
for a good six or eight | 2:04:48 | 2:04:51 | |
hours in their vehicles. | 2:04:51 | 2:04:52 | |
So quite a long time. | 2:04:52 | 2:04:57 | |
We have assisted one or two vehicles
who had completely run out of fuel | 2:04:57 | 2:05:00 | |
and we have managed to get fuel
back to them. | 2:05:00 | 2:05:06 | |
Mostly it has been checking
the welfare of people in their cars. | 2:05:06 | 2:05:09 | |
Dozens of schools were closed
yesterday across Scotland, | 2:05:09 | 2:05:10 | |
affecting thousands of children. | 2:05:10 | 2:05:12 | |
But it wasn't all doom and gloom. | 2:05:12 | 2:05:16 | |
In Selkirk, the scene was worthy
of a seasonal postcard with people | 2:05:16 | 2:05:19 | |
living on higher ground witnessing
the heaviest snowfall. | 2:05:19 | 2:05:24 | |
In Dumfries, snow ploughs
worked around the clock | 2:05:24 | 2:05:27 | |
to keep motorists moving. | 2:05:27 | 2:05:29 | |
This was the picture in Glasgow. | 2:05:29 | 2:05:31 | |
And in Edinburgh, only
the most determined | 2:05:31 | 2:05:33 | |
ventured out in their cars. | 2:05:33 | 2:05:36 | |
Gritters have been out
through the night to try to avoid | 2:05:36 | 2:05:38 | |
a repeat of the problems for drivers
on the M74, but Police Scotland | 2:05:38 | 2:05:43 | |
say if you can avoid
travelling this morning, | 2:05:43 | 2:05:46 | |
you should do so. | 2:05:46 | 2:05:49 | |
Ian Palmer, BBC News. | 2:05:49 | 2:05:55 | |
We have been speaking to people
stuck on the M74 overnight. Bad | 2:05:55 | 2:06:01 | |
weather also causing some schools to
close across the North of England, | 2:06:01 | 2:06:05 | |
Northern Ireland and parts of
Scotland. If there is snow in your | 2:06:05 | 2:06:09 | |
area then you should check with your
local authority about school | 2:06:09 | 2:06:13 | |
closures as well. Always worth
tuning in to local BBC radio | 2:06:13 | 2:06:18 | |
stations, or checking out the BBC
website. Carroll will have some | 2:06:18 | 2:06:22 | |
detail on what might be happening
over the course of the day. | 2:06:22 | 2:06:28 | |
The Met office has set out in amber
weather warning for northern | 2:06:28 | 2:06:35 | |
Scotland | 2:06:35 | 2:06:35 | |
weather warning for northern
Scotland and Northern Ireland, but | 2:06:35 | 2:06:37 | |
that has just expired. Snow showers
will continue, however, the | 2:06:37 | 2:06:44 | |
intensity will start to ease. The
wind will also start to ease as | 2:06:44 | 2:06:48 | |
well. But there is still the risk of
ice. These are the kind of totals we | 2:06:48 | 2:06:52 | |
have seen, 38 centimetres, close to
15 inches, in the Southern uplands. | 2:06:52 | 2:07:03 | |
Later in the day, through this
evening and overnight, a period of | 2:07:03 | 2:07:07 | |
low pressure is coming our way that
will bring in heavy rain, gales and | 2:07:07 | 2:07:12 | |
heavy snow. We are not out of the
woods just yet. I will tell you all | 2:07:12 | 2:07:16 | |
the details of that system in the
next weather report at 8:15am. | 2:07:16 | 2:07:27 | |
Are you waking up
to snow this morning? | 2:07:28 | 2:07:30 | |
Have you been stuck
in traffic overnight? | 2:07:30 | 2:07:32 | |
You can send us your photos
and videos to our new WhatsApp | 2:07:32 | 2:07:35 | |
number: 07 990 99 88 66. | 2:07:35 | 2:07:43 | |
You can get in touch on social media
and the normal e-mail address as | 2:07:43 | 2:07:46 | |
well. | 2:07:46 | 2:07:50 | |
More details have emerged
of the final days of construction | 2:07:57 | 2:07:59 | |
giant Carillion in a document put
together by the company's chief | 2:07:59 | 2:08:02 | |
executive as he prepared to declare
the firm insolvent. | 2:08:02 | 2:08:04 | |
Steph has been looking
into this and joins us now. | 2:08:04 | 2:08:06 | |
So, what more have we learnt about
how much trouble Carillion was in? | 2:08:06 | 2:08:09 | |
Some very big numbers. We now know
how much money they had left when | 2:08:09 | 2:08:13 | |
they announced they would go into
liquidation. That figure is £29 | 2:08:13 | 2:08:16 | |
million. It might sound like a lot
to us, but when you are a huge | 2:08:16 | 2:08:22 | |
business dealing with contracts
worth billions, and the fact they | 2:08:22 | 2:08:26 | |
owed more than £1.5 billion, its
small fry, not enough to run the | 2:08:26 | 2:08:32 | |
business. It's a huge operation,
20,000 people employed by them. That | 2:08:32 | 2:08:36 | |
meant they had to go into
liquidation. We also know that in | 2:08:36 | 2:08:40 | |
the run-up to all of this, they
started talking to the government in | 2:08:40 | 2:08:44 | |
October looking for a rescue plan,
but that came to a head on December | 2:08:44 | 2:08:51 | |
31 when they formally requested a
rescue plan. That meant they wanted | 2:08:51 | 2:08:55 | |
four months extra, and a guarantee
from the government that if they | 2:08:55 | 2:09:01 | |
couldn't afford to pay their money
to the banks who they owed money to, | 2:09:01 | 2:09:05 | |
they would get a guarantee from the
government that they would step in | 2:09:05 | 2:09:07 | |
to help. They also wanted to defer
some tax payments. The government | 2:09:07 | 2:09:12 | |
said no and that's why they went
into liquidation. All this | 2:09:12 | 2:09:16 | |
information coming out now, and
there will be analysis on whether it | 2:09:16 | 2:09:20 | |
was bad management that led up to
it, or whatever the reasons were. | 2:09:20 | 2:09:25 | |
There will be a fast-track
investigation and I imagine we will | 2:09:25 | 2:09:28 | |
be talking about this story for
quite some time, given how much it | 2:09:28 | 2:09:32 | |
feeds into so many walks of life,
and 30,000 smaller companies who are | 2:09:32 | 2:09:37 | |
owed money by Carillion. It's a big
and far-reaching story. | 2:09:37 | 2:09:42 | |
Police in California have praised
the bravery of the 17-year-old girl | 2:09:42 | 2:09:45 | |
who escaped from the home
where she and her 12 siblings | 2:09:45 | 2:09:48 | |
were allegedly being held captive
by their parents. | 2:09:48 | 2:09:50 | |
David and Louise Turpin -
whose children range | 2:09:50 | 2:09:53 | |
in age from 2 to 29 -
are due to appear in court | 2:09:53 | 2:09:57 | |
later this week, charged
with torture and child endangerment. | 2:09:57 | 2:10:01 | |
Investigators say they had had no
previous contacts with the couple. | 2:10:01 | 2:10:05 | |
Donald Trump has been given a clean
bill of health by his doctor, | 2:10:05 | 2:10:08 | |
following his first
medical as commander-in-chief. | 2:10:08 | 2:10:11 | |
Dr Ronny Jackson said the President
was in good shape for his age, | 2:10:11 | 2:10:15 | |
but could benefit from a lower-fat
diet and more exercise. | 2:10:15 | 2:10:19 | |
He also said he had "no concerns"
about Mr Trump's cognitive ability. | 2:10:19 | 2:10:22 | |
The examination also
flagged up the medication | 2:10:22 | 2:10:26 | |
that the President takes,
including a drug to combat hair | 2:10:26 | 2:10:33 | |
and a daily aspirin. | 2:10:33 | 2:10:38 | |
As part of his medical
the President took part | 2:10:38 | 2:10:40 | |
in a cognitive awareness test. | 2:10:40 | 2:10:43 | |
You get marked out of 30 on this
piece of paper. One of the jobs is | 2:10:43 | 2:10:48 | |
to identify correctly a lion,
rhinoceros and camel. Various other | 2:10:48 | 2:10:52 | |
tests. He did get 30 out of 30. Some
other people have got in contact | 2:10:52 | 2:11:01 | |
today saying they have taken their
family members to take this test | 2:11:01 | 2:11:06 | |
because it's the Montreal cognitive
assessment, also used to determine | 2:11:06 | 2:11:10 | |
early-onset Alzheimer's. | 2:11:10 | 2:11:13 | |
The Bayeux Tapestry is to return
to Britain for the first | 2:11:13 | 2:11:16 | |
time since it was made
in the 11th century. | 2:11:16 | 2:11:18 | |
The 70-metre-long embroidery,
which tells the story | 2:11:18 | 2:11:20 | |
of the Battle of Hastings,
has been kept in France for the last | 2:11:20 | 2:11:23 | |
950 years but will go on display
in Britain after months of talks. | 2:11:23 | 2:11:26 | |
The BBC understands that
French President Emmanuel Macron | 2:11:26 | 2:11:28 | |
will confirm the loan when he meets
Theresa May tomorrow. | 2:11:28 | 2:11:33 | |
I've been waiting more than an hour
for you to give me some tapestry | 2:11:34 | 2:11:37 | |
facts. | 2:11:37 | 2:11:43 | |
facts. It's not a tapestry, it's an
embroidery. Tapestries woven on a | 2:11:43 | 2:11:46 | |
loom, where as embroidery has ground
fabric. It was not made by nuns. The | 2:11:46 | 2:11:52 | |
widely accepted theory is it was
created by teams of nuns across | 2:11:52 | 2:11:55 | |
England, but a study done in 2012
showed, the University of Manchester | 2:11:55 | 2:12:03 | |
showed the needlework was consistent
throughout, done by the same group | 2:12:03 | 2:12:07 | |
of people, not a wider group of
nuns. We will be speaking to an | 2:12:07 | 2:12:12 | |
expert from 8:40am. There is also an
exact copy of it in Reading Museum. | 2:12:12 | 2:12:19 | |
Last year a 2-year-old girl bacame
the youngest person to give evidence | 2:12:19 | 2:12:22 | |
in a UK criminal case,
something only made possible | 2:12:22 | 2:12:24 | |
by a team of experts
known as "intermediaries". | 2:12:24 | 2:12:27 | |
Usually speech therapists,
psychologists, teachers or other | 2:12:27 | 2:12:30 | |
skilled professionals,
intermediaries make sure the most | 2:12:30 | 2:12:32 | |
vulnerable have a voice in court. | 2:12:32 | 2:12:34 | |
But according to a report
from the victims' commisioner, | 2:12:34 | 2:12:36 | |
they are overstretched
and underfunded. | 2:12:36 | 2:12:39 | |
We're joined now by Nicola Lewis,
who is a registered intermediary, | 2:12:39 | 2:12:42 | |
and by Baroness Newlove,
who wrote the report. | 2:12:42 | 2:12:46 | |
Thank you for joining us. Nicola, if
I can ask you, it seems | 2:12:46 | 2:12:56 | |
extraordinary in some ways, but a
two-year-old child was able to give | 2:12:56 | 2:12:59 | |
evidence. You do this work, so how
do you even have a conversation | 2:12:59 | 2:13:06 | |
about something like that with a
very young child? The job we do, | 2:13:06 | 2:13:11 | |
first of all we assess the
vulnerable person to see how they | 2:13:11 | 2:13:14 | |
can communicate. With the
two-year-old, the range of words | 2:13:14 | 2:13:18 | |
will be very limited and sometimes
they need to show with a figure or | 2:13:18 | 2:13:22 | |
object instead of tell. We have
figures we use, and we allow them to | 2:13:22 | 2:13:27 | |
draw and use visuals. We do a lot of
rapport building. We will meet with | 2:13:27 | 2:13:33 | |
the child. With that two-year-old,
she initially would not come in the | 2:13:33 | 2:13:37 | |
room, and the police officer and the
intermediary were just playing. She | 2:13:37 | 2:13:41 | |
would peep round the door and then
she joined them. They talked to her | 2:13:41 | 2:13:46 | |
informally. The camera was rolling,
the evidence was recorded over a | 2:13:46 | 2:13:51 | |
period of time. You have brought
something 's end. How would you use | 2:13:51 | 2:13:56 | |
something like this? That's when you
have brought some things in. This | 2:13:56 | 2:14:02 | |
was a case where a young child was
trying to explain what happened to | 2:14:02 | 2:14:09 | |
her. She was not good with
prepositions, so it was easier for | 2:14:09 | 2:14:12 | |
her to show what happened instead of
using words. It's incredibly | 2:14:12 | 2:14:19 | |
interesting work and very important.
How much difference can it make that | 2:14:19 | 2:14:25 | |
young victims particularly can have
access to this type of person to | 2:14:25 | 2:14:29 | |
help them? It makes a huge
difference. They can't communicate | 2:14:29 | 2:14:33 | |
like we are now. If we can have
registered intermediaries able to | 2:14:33 | 2:14:44 | |
communicate with victims and police
officers, it's important to have | 2:14:44 | 2:14:47 | |
this role in this review shows how
important that role is for victims. | 2:14:47 | 2:14:52 | |
There have been cuts to the criminal
justice system and it's not possible | 2:14:52 | 2:14:55 | |
to pay for everything. Funnily
enough, in the review, nobody | 2:14:55 | 2:15:00 | |
complained about resources. What I
would say, looking at the | 2:15:00 | 2:15:06 | |
recommendations, if there is funding
needing to be put into this, then | 2:15:06 | 2:15:08 | |
they have to do that. At the end of
the day, it's about equal justice. | 2:15:08 | 2:15:14 | |
Victims have a right under the
entitlement in the victims' codes to | 2:15:14 | 2:15:19 | |
have a registered intermediary. I'm
not getting down on funding, just | 2:15:19 | 2:15:22 | |
writes for victims. Do you feel like
you and the services are stretched | 2:15:22 | 2:15:27 | |
at the moment? | 2:15:27 | 2:15:33 | |
It is really vital that they get to
speak because perpetrators target | 2:15:48 | 2:15:51 | |
these people | 2:15:51 | 2:15:57 | |
these people because they are
vulnerable. They can pull more | 2:15:57 | 2:16:02 | |
intermediaries in at the top but
until they plug the hole at the | 2:16:02 | 2:16:05 | |
bottom, the problem is likely to
continue. Baroness, do you know of | 2:16:05 | 2:16:10 | |
cases which have collapsed because
of a lack of intermediaries? The | 2:16:10 | 2:16:15 | |
review doesn't shine a light on that
but if you look at the waiting time, | 2:16:15 | 2:16:20 | |
there was an average of four weeks
waiting time for a child to give | 2:16:20 | 2:16:24 | |
their evidence. Sometimes I can't
remember yesterday, said that is | 2:16:24 | 2:16:28 | |
horrendous. There shouldn't be a
waiting time for these people to | 2:16:28 | 2:16:32 | |
communicate the most dramatic things
that have had to happen to them. -- | 2:16:32 | 2:16:37 | |
that have happened to them. These
are children who are trying to give | 2:16:37 | 2:16:43 | |
evidence in the criminal justice
system and they shouldn't have to | 2:16:43 | 2:16:45 | |
wait four weeks for an intermediary.
One of the recommendations are my | 2:16:45 | 2:16:49 | |
review is to have a fast track
system and a central system where | 2:16:49 | 2:16:52 | |
they can have everybody on data and
if they need to have more registered | 2:16:52 | 2:16:56 | |
intermediaries available, they can
access them and go to the Ministry | 2:16:56 | 2:16:59 | |
of Justice or the National Crime
Agency who was responsible to match | 2:16:59 | 2:17:03 | |
them to work together to ensure
there isn't a waiting list as much | 2:17:03 | 2:17:06 | |
as they read at the moment. Baroness
new love, we have spoken to the | 2:17:06 | 2:17:11 | |
Ministry of Justice, a spokesperson
giving us a statement saying, we | 2:17:11 | 2:17:16 | |
recently doubled the size of the
scheme, with 90% of requests being | 2:17:16 | 2:17:23 | |
made to intermediaries. They also
say they will look at this | 2:17:23 | 2:17:34 | |
recommendations. Is that enough for
you? They have recruited 30 | 2:17:34 | 2:17:41 | |
intermediaries but it's not about
looking at the recommendations | 2:17:41 | 2:17:44 | |
alone. This isn't about
intermediaries alone, it is about | 2:17:44 | 2:17:49 | |
writing the victims code. We are
dealing with children who are | 2:17:49 | 2:17:54 | |
vulnerable and we are dealing with
adults and children with disability | 2:17:54 | 2:17:57 | |
needs. That is why I think when you
see what the intermediaries do, they | 2:17:57 | 2:18:01 | |
are fantastic people to get the most
sensitive information out of it in a | 2:18:01 | 2:18:06 | |
most relaxed environment and surely
that should be the most relaxed | 2:18:06 | 2:18:09 | |
environment to make sure children
get equal access to justice. Thank | 2:18:09 | 2:18:19 | |
you so much to both of you. It is
8:18am. If you have been watching | 2:18:19 | 2:18:27 | |
for a while, you will know that
Carol has been a lot more than | 2:18:27 | 2:18:30 | |
normal this morning. Some parts of
the country really treacherous this | 2:18:30 | 2:18:34 | |
morning. Carroll has update. | 2:18:34 | 2:18:37 | |
the country really treacherous this
morning. Carroll has update. | 2:18:37 | 2:18:37 | |
You are quite right. Treacherous
conditions at their because of | 2:18:37 | 2:18:42 | |
disruption as we have been hearing
in the news. This photo is of | 2:18:42 | 2:18:47 | |
Melrose and you can see the lying
snow. This is Ron Tulloch Bridge. | 2:18:47 | 2:18:51 | |
Look at the Dan Thorpe these now on
that table. -- look at the depth of | 2:18:51 | 2:18:59 | |
that snow on the table. | 2:18:59 | 2:19:02 | |
38 centimetres is almost 15 inches. | 2:19:06 | 2:19:15 | |
There is a lot of snow. The Met
office has had a amber weather | 2:19:15 | 2:19:19 | |
warning out for Scotland this
morning which has now expired but | 2:19:19 | 2:19:24 | |
still treacherous conditions if you
are out and about. Slowly, we will | 2:19:24 | 2:19:30 | |
start to see an improvement. We
still will have some snow showers, a | 2:19:30 | 2:19:34 | |
plethora of them in Scotland, but
they went to be as widespread and | 2:19:34 | 2:19:38 | |
neither will they be across Northern
Ireland and northern England. Around | 2:19:38 | 2:19:42 | |
that, there is a lot of dry weather
and sunshine around, but it will | 2:19:42 | 2:19:46 | |
still feel cold. Any showers tending
to be of rain or in some of the | 2:19:46 | 2:19:50 | |
heavier ones, hail or sleet. In
between the snow showers here, there | 2:19:50 | 2:19:58 | |
will be dry spells. Still a lot of
dry weather across Northern Ireland, | 2:19:58 | 2:20:02 | |
too, but some showers coming in.
More on that later. For northern | 2:20:02 | 2:20:06 | |
England, you again will have some
more snow showers but not as intense | 2:20:06 | 2:20:11 | |
as you have seen. The wind will
continue to ease a touch as well. | 2:20:11 | 2:20:17 | |
Further south, some sunshine with
some showers dotted around. But with | 2:20:17 | 2:20:21 | |
the wind, we are looking at large
waves crashing on shore on the west. | 2:20:21 | 2:20:28 | |
Then the next big Atlantic low comes
our way. This is what you can expect | 2:20:28 | 2:20:34 | |
this evening, wet, the wind
strengthening, snow in Northern | 2:20:34 | 2:20:38 | |
Ireland, especially so in the hills
and in the north. There will also be | 2:20:38 | 2:20:41 | |
held snow in Wales. Move this from
eight o'clock in the evening to five | 2:20:41 | 2:20:45 | |
o'clock in the morning. This is what
happens. As the snow engages with | 2:20:45 | 2:20:48 | |
the cold air across Northern
Ireland, we will see more snowfall. | 2:20:48 | 2:20:54 | |
Heavy across the southern uplands,
and at the same time, we have got | 2:20:54 | 2:21:01 | |
heavy rain spreading across Wales,
southern England, and gales. 50 mph, | 2:21:01 | 2:21:11 | |
70 mph quite possible with exposure
in the west. In the east, there | 2:21:11 | 2:21:16 | |
could be snow across parts of
Yorkshire and Lincolnshire early. If | 2:21:16 | 2:21:21 | |
you are travelling tonight are
indeed this evening, do bear that in | 2:21:21 | 2:21:24 | |
mind. We are likely to see
disruption from land. One good thing | 2:21:24 | 2:21:28 | |
is it moves through quite quickly.
The winds ease the touch, we see | 2:21:28 | 2:21:33 | |
some sunshine tomorrow but still
some showers coming in from | 2:21:33 | 2:21:36 | |
some sunshine tomorrow but still
some showers coming in from the | 2:21:36 | 2:21:36 | |
west. | 2:21:36 | 2:21:36 | |
some sunshine tomorrow but still
some showers coming in from the | 2:21:36 | 2:21:37 | |
west. Carol, thank you. We will see
you in about 25 minutes time. | 2:21:37 | 2:21:42 | |
The NHS is 'haemorrhaging' nurses -
that's according to latest figures | 2:21:42 | 2:21:45 | |
which show thousands are leaving
the NHS compared to | 2:21:45 | 2:21:47 | |
those who are joining. | 2:21:47 | 2:21:48 | |
10% of nursing staff
are walking away | 2:21:48 | 2:21:50 | |
from hospital wards each year. | 2:21:50 | 2:21:51 | |
Our health correspondent Dominic
Hughes has been finding out why. | 2:21:56 | 2:21:58 | |
She became a nurse to help people,
excited at the prospect of making | 2:21:58 | 2:22:01 | |
a difference but in the end,
the job overwhelmed Mary Trevelyan. | 2:22:01 | 2:22:05 | |
I would end up in tears during
a shift because there was just | 2:22:05 | 2:22:08 | |
so much pressure and stress. | 2:22:08 | 2:22:11 | |
A never-ending list of things to do,
guilt over not having enough time | 2:22:11 | 2:22:14 | |
to care for patients. | 2:22:14 | 2:22:17 | |
Stress led to depression and Mary
has had to leave the job she loved. | 2:22:17 | 2:22:22 | |
I want to be a great nurse
and I want to give my patients my | 2:22:22 | 2:22:26 | |
best but I feel I can't do that
at the moment because we are just | 2:22:26 | 2:22:30 | |
too short-staffed, too busy. | 2:22:30 | 2:22:33 | |
There's far too many
things for us to be doing. | 2:22:33 | 2:22:37 | |
We have analysed the number
of nurses working in | 2:22:37 | 2:22:39 | |
the NHS in England. | 2:22:39 | 2:22:41 | |
Last year, more than
33,000 nurses walked away | 2:22:41 | 2:22:44 | |
from their health service jobs. | 2:22:44 | 2:22:47 | |
That's a 20% rise compared to four
years ago and those leaving | 2:22:47 | 2:22:50 | |
outnumbered those joining. | 2:22:50 | 2:22:54 | |
And almost one in four
of those leaving are | 2:22:54 | 2:22:56 | |
relatively young, under 30. | 2:22:56 | 2:23:01 | |
All of this has potentially serious
implications for a sustainable | 2:23:01 | 2:23:03 | |
nursing profession. | 2:23:03 | 2:23:09 | |
Unless we can actually improve
the number of nurses that | 2:23:09 | 2:23:12 | |
are there to support the new nurses
coming in, it becomes a continuous | 2:23:12 | 2:23:15 | |
vicious cycle where people
won't want to stay because they've | 2:23:15 | 2:23:18 | |
not got the support the workplace. | 2:23:18 | 2:23:23 | |
Many nurses are thinking
about or have already left | 2:23:23 | 2:23:27 | |
the profession and that's just one
reason why so many hospitals | 2:23:27 | 2:23:29 | |
are struggling to recruit
properly trained staff. | 2:23:29 | 2:23:32 | |
Yet the government tells us
thousands more nurses | 2:23:32 | 2:23:35 | |
are working in the NHS today
than they were in 2010. | 2:23:35 | 2:23:43 | |
In order to retain staff, to keep
them on the books, they need to give | 2:23:44 | 2:23:47 | |
them new opportunities. | 2:23:47 | 2:23:48 | |
And that's what nurses like
Sarah Dalby are making the most of. | 2:23:48 | 2:23:51 | |
She is now able to perform surgery
thanks to specialist training, | 2:23:51 | 2:23:54 | |
developing new skills which have
taken her a long way | 2:23:54 | 2:23:56 | |
from the traditional nursing role. | 2:23:56 | 2:24:01 | |
It is always nice to have an option
to develop into another pathway | 2:24:01 | 2:24:04 | |
or opportunity if that's
what you want to do - | 2:24:04 | 2:24:08 | |
it's not for everyone,
because nursing is so varied | 2:24:08 | 2:24:15 | |
and it's a privilege to be a nurse. | 2:24:15 | 2:24:23 | |
We care for patients
at their most | 2:24:24 | 2:24:26 | |
vulnerable and it's certainly
challenging at the moment | 2:24:26 | 2:24:28 | |
but that doesn't take away
from what we are doing as a career. | 2:24:28 | 2:24:31 | |
Mary has not turned her back
on nursing altogether. | 2:24:31 | 2:24:33 | |
Like some of her friends,
she is now thinking of working | 2:24:33 | 2:24:36 | |
abroad but today's NHS is not
for her and many other nurses appear | 2:24:36 | 2:24:39 | |
to be reaching a similar conclusion. | 2:24:39 | 2:24:40 | |
Dominic Hughes, BBC News. | 2:24:40 | 2:24:41 | |
Well, there are two different
stories there. Dominic is at | 2:24:41 | 2:24:45 | |
Birmingham Children's Hospital and I
know you have been speaking to | 2:24:45 | 2:24:47 | |
nurses that this morning. Yes,
Louise. We are on the cardiology | 2:24:47 | 2:24:52 | |
unit. It's one of the biggest,
busiest cardiology units in the | 2:24:52 | 2:24:58 | |
country. The ward started waking up
about 25 minutes ago. I'm delighted | 2:24:58 | 2:25:02 | |
to say I am joined by Kyle Adams,
the lead nurse for safety here at | 2:25:02 | 2:25:09 | |
Birmingham children's. What does
patient safety mean? It's my job to | 2:25:09 | 2:25:15 | |
look at how | 2:25:15 | 2:25:17 | |
patient safety mean? It's my job to
look at how | 2:25:17 | 2:25:20 | |
patient safety mean? It's my job to
look at how deliver our care to make | 2:25:20 | 2:25:26 | |
sure it is as safe and as good as
possible for our patients. How long | 2:25:26 | 2:25:30 | |
have you been a nice? 22 years. | 2:25:30 | 2:25:39 | |
have you been a nice? 22 years. How
have things changed? Did roles such | 2:25:39 | 2:25:41 | |
as yours and the surgical position
we just mentioned exist 22 years | 2:25:41 | 2:25:44 | |
ago? I don't remember them existing
but it's a great way of keeping | 2:25:44 | 2:25:52 | |
people in the profession. How
important is it that roles like that | 2:25:52 | 2:25:56 | |
exist to allow people like yourself,
highly experienced and professional, | 2:25:56 | 2:26:01 | |
to remain in the profession? It's
really important because we don't | 2:26:01 | 2:26:05 | |
want to lose people from the
profession he would have all of | 2:26:05 | 2:26:09 | |
those experiences and training, so
holding onto them is extremely | 2:26:09 | 2:26:15 | |
important. The government point out
they have created more than 5000 | 2:26:15 | 2:26:22 | |
extra places for training masses
last year, a 25% increase, and also | 2:26:22 | 2:26:28 | |
they say that there are more nurses
working in hospitals in England at | 2:26:28 | 2:26:33 | |
least now than there were in 2010.
Clearly, we know that there are | 2:26:33 | 2:26:38 | |
problems in Scotland, Wales and
Northern Ireland with the retention | 2:26:38 | 2:26:41 | |
of experienced staff. So it is a
problem that exists right across the | 2:26:41 | 2:26:45 | |
United Kingdom. Thank you very much
indeed. | 2:26:45 | 2:26:52 | |
Time now to get the news,
travel and weather where you are. | 2:26:52 | 2:26:56 | |
We are going to talk about sneezing
a little bit later. | 2:26:56 | 2:27:00 | |
Anything else he would like to say?
No, that is it. | 2:27:00 | 2:30:27 | |
which is on your screen now. | 2:30:27 | 2:30:28 | |
Now though it's back
to Dan and Louise. | 2:30:28 | 2:30:30 | |
Hello, this is Breakfast,
with Louise Minchin and Dan Walker. | 2:30:33 | 2:30:41 | |
Good morning, thank you for being
with us. Let's bring you up-to-date | 2:30:41 | 2:30:45 | |
with the news and sport this
morning. | 2:30:45 | 2:30:48 | |
Snow and ice are causing
serious problems on roads | 2:30:48 | 2:30:50 | |
across Scotland, Northern Ireland
and Northern England, | 2:30:50 | 2:30:52 | |
with drivers stranded in long queues
on the M74 motorway overnight. | 2:30:52 | 2:30:55 | |
Mountain rescue teams have been
helping motorists who were trapped | 2:30:55 | 2:30:57 | |
in their cars for more
than eight hours. | 2:30:57 | 2:31:00 | |
The bad weather has caused some
schools to close across the north of | 2:31:00 | 2:31:03 | |
England, Northern Ireland and parts
of Scotland. | 2:31:03 | 2:31:11 | |
Carol will have the forecast for
everybody in about ten minutes time. | 2:31:13 | 2:31:18 | |
More nurses left the health service
in England last year than joined - | 2:31:18 | 2:31:22 | |
BBC analysis of NHS data found
that just over 33,000 | 2:31:22 | 2:31:24 | |
nurses left the service -
3,000 more than signed up. | 2:31:24 | 2:31:26 | |
The Royal College of Nursing says
experienced staff are leaving | 2:31:26 | 2:31:29 | |
because they're demoralised. | 2:31:29 | 2:31:30 | |
NHS England's Chief Nursing Officer
says despite pressures, front line | 2:31:30 | 2:31:32 | |
staff are still providing good care. | 2:31:32 | 2:31:40 | |
The construction firm Carillion was
left with just £29 million when it | 2:31:43 | 2:31:48 | |
collapsed on Thursday. It owed
billions to its creditors. This is | 2:31:48 | 2:31:53 | |
according to documents seen by the
BBC. The firm's chief executive | 2:31:53 | 2:32:00 | |
prepared to make the firm in
solvent. The government has ordered | 2:32:00 | 2:32:05 | |
a fast track investigation of the
firm's collapse. | 2:32:05 | 2:32:10 | |
Donald Trump has been advised
to eat a lower fat diet | 2:32:10 | 2:32:13 | |
and take more exercise, after his
first medical check-up in office. | 2:32:13 | 2:32:15 | |
However the White House doctor says
the President - who's 71 - | 2:32:15 | 2:32:18 | |
is generally in excellent health
and that he performed | 2:32:18 | 2:32:21 | |
well in cognitive tests. | 2:32:21 | 2:32:23 | |
We have some interesting footage to
show you now. | 2:32:23 | 2:32:26 | |
When Lindsey Thomson lost her cat
Koshka in a California mudslide | 2:32:26 | 2:32:29 | |
she didn't give up hope
of finding her alive. | 2:32:29 | 2:32:34 | |
Thank you so much! We needed
something like this to happen for | 2:32:34 | 2:32:37 | |
our family. | 2:32:37 | 2:32:39 | |
That is the emotional moment Lindsey
was reunited with Koshka | 2:32:39 | 2:32:42 | |
after an incredible effort
to track her down. | 2:32:42 | 2:32:44 | |
Lindsey was airlifted from her home
by helicopter but was determined | 2:32:44 | 2:32:46 | |
to find her cat so she contacted
firefighters who kept track | 2:32:46 | 2:32:49 | |
of muddy paw prints for a week. | 2:32:49 | 2:32:52 | |
One firefighter then heard cries
and managed to crawl | 2:32:52 | 2:32:54 | |
through a second-floor window
to rescue her. | 2:32:54 | 2:33:01 | |
Koshka looks a little bit scared but
back in safe hands. Clearly, | 2:33:01 | 2:33:06 | |
incredibly brave. | 2:33:06 | 2:33:12 | |
Is that what you like with the new
dog in your house? Pretty much! She | 2:33:12 | 2:33:17 | |
is called Ruby but she is absolutely
lovely. | 2:33:17 | 2:33:23 | |
That brings you up to date. | 2:33:23 | 2:33:27 | |
It tells the story of one of our
most famous periods of history, | 2:33:27 | 2:33:31 | |
but for the last 950 years,
the Bayeux Tapestry | 2:33:31 | 2:33:33 | |
has lived in France. | 2:33:33 | 2:33:34 | |
An expert will explain why its
return to Britain is so significant. | 2:33:34 | 2:33:37 | |
I felt I was actually doing
something useful, and doing | 2:33:37 | 2:33:41 | |
something well. | 2:33:41 | 2:33:44 | |
Marking 100 years of
the Royal Air Force. | 2:33:44 | 2:33:46 | |
We'll hear from the last surviving
British member of the Dambusters, | 2:33:46 | 2:33:48 | |
as the RAF prepares to reform
its most famous squadron. | 2:33:48 | 2:33:51 | |
And we'll meet the dancer who's
lifted the lid on balancing a dream | 2:33:51 | 2:33:54 | |
career as a ballerina,
with the demands of being a mum. | 2:33:54 | 2:34:02 | |
I should thank all the viewers who
have been sending pictures of their | 2:34:04 | 2:34:07 | |
dogs.
If you missed it Britain's top dog | 2:34:07 | 2:34:12 | |
was named as a Labrador and Louise
has two. | 2:34:12 | 2:34:17 | |
I am not the only person who has got
one and agrees with that. But you | 2:34:17 | 2:34:22 | |
would think so, the amount you have
been talking about it! You are ahead | 2:34:22 | 2:34:28 | |
of the curve! | 2:34:28 | 2:34:34 | |
I know we have been talking about
VAR a lot, apologies. Last week was | 2:34:34 | 2:34:40 | |
the first one was used in football
then it was the first time it was | 2:34:40 | 2:34:44 | |
properly put into action and last
night was the first we saw whether a | 2:34:44 | 2:34:48 | |
goal should stand or not. It was
quite a big moment last night. | 2:34:48 | 2:34:59 | |
It came in Leicester City's 2-0 FA
Cup third round replay | 2:34:59 | 2:35:02 | |
over Fleetwood Town. | 2:35:02 | 2:35:03 | |
Kelechi Iheanacho put Leicester 1-0
ahead against the League One side | 2:35:03 | 2:35:06 | |
at the King Power. | 2:35:06 | 2:35:08 | |
And then came his
second, at first ruled | 2:35:08 | 2:35:10 | |
offside by the linesman,
referred to the VAR, | 2:35:10 | 2:35:12 | |
and after careful consideration
he was judged to have been onside. | 2:35:12 | 2:35:18 | |
So the goal stands. We are a lot
better. From the first leg we knew | 2:35:19 | 2:35:25 | |
we had to perform a lot better and
be more professional on the pitch. | 2:35:25 | 2:35:29 | |
We have done that tonight. Man has
got the goals and it shows that VAR | 2:35:29 | 2:35:35 | |
does work. | 2:35:35 | 2:35:37 | |
There were no upsets in any of last
night's other four replays. | 2:35:37 | 2:35:40 | |
West Ham were taken to extra time
by League One Shrewsbury, | 2:35:40 | 2:35:42 | |
but the Premier League side
made it through. | 2:35:42 | 2:35:44 | |
Cardiff, Sheffield Wednesday
and Reading are also | 2:35:44 | 2:35:46 | |
through to the fourth round. | 2:35:46 | 2:35:47 | |
Ronnie O'Sullivan rattled
through his first round match | 2:35:47 | 2:35:49 | |
at the Masters snooker,
allowing Marco Fu to pot only eight | 2:35:49 | 2:35:52 | |
balls in a six frames to nil
thrashing O'Sullivan's won this | 2:35:52 | 2:35:54 | |
tournament a record seven times,
and he made three century breaks | 2:35:54 | 2:35:58 | |
in the first four frames in a match
that only lasted just over an hour | 2:35:58 | 2:36:01 | |
and a half at Alexandra Palace. | 2:36:01 | 2:36:02 | |
Amazingly, Ronnie reckoned
he's wasn't at his best. | 2:36:02 | 2:36:06 | |
I have a virus or something
and I just felt very dizzy | 2:36:06 | 2:36:09 | |
and I felt sort of... | 2:36:09 | 2:36:10 | |
Really? | 2:36:10 | 2:36:12 | |
You looked in good form. | 2:36:12 | 2:36:14 | |
I just played off instinct -
don't think, just pot balls - | 2:36:14 | 2:36:16 | |
but really struggling
over the last 5, 6 days. | 2:36:16 | 2:36:19 | |
Have you been struggling
with illness? | 2:36:19 | 2:36:20 | |
No, I've just been feeling dizzy. | 2:36:20 | 2:36:23 | |
You couldn't give it to me? | 2:36:23 | 2:36:24 | |
I could do with a few days... | 2:36:24 | 2:36:26 | |
Maybe a lack of magnesium
I was told, but I have been eating | 2:36:26 | 2:36:29 | |
well for the last few months. | 2:36:29 | 2:36:32 | |
He could do with a spot of colour in
his cheeks, couldn't he? | 2:36:32 | 2:36:38 | |
Britain's Kyle Edmund
has reached the third | 2:36:38 | 2:36:40 | |
round of the Australian Open
for the first time. | 2:36:40 | 2:36:42 | |
The British number two
beat Denis Istomin from | 2:36:42 | 2:36:44 | |
Uzbekistan in straight sets. | 2:36:44 | 2:36:45 | |
Edmund goes on to face
world number 61 Nikoloz Basilashvili | 2:36:45 | 2:36:48 | |
of Georgia next. | 2:36:48 | 2:36:51 | |
Top seed Rafael Nadal
is looking comfortable | 2:36:51 | 2:36:53 | |
in his second round match
against Argentina's Leonardo Mayer. | 2:36:53 | 2:37:01 | |
He is through in straight sets. | 2:37:04 | 2:37:09 | |
Coverage of that and all the action,
including a hard fought | 2:37:09 | 2:37:12 | |
victory for number two seed
Caroline Wozniacki, | 2:37:12 | 2:37:16 | |
is on Five Live sports extra
and the BBC sport website. | 2:37:16 | 2:37:23 | |
Roger Federer went through yesterday
but some tough questions from Ron | 2:37:23 | 2:37:28 | |
Burgundy from Anchorman. | 2:37:28 | 2:37:31 | |
Tonight you seemed like a gazelle
out there on the court. | 2:37:31 | 2:37:34 | |
Would you describe your game
as a silky gazelle? | 2:37:34 | 2:37:36 | |
Maybe. | 2:37:36 | 2:37:37 | |
Maybe not. | 2:37:37 | 2:37:40 | |
Don't they get eaten at the end? | 2:37:40 | 2:37:43 | |
Not if they're fast enough. | 2:37:43 | 2:37:50 | |
Roger Federer as a silky gazelle. In
fact, they call him the goat: the | 2:37:50 | 2:37:57 | |
greatest of all time.
He always deals with that stuff | 2:37:57 | 2:38:00 | |
brilliantly. Yes, he is such a good
sport. | 2:38:00 | 2:38:10 | |
They travel at 200 miles per hour
and can make your eyes | 2:38:10 | 2:38:13 | |
pop out of your head. | 2:38:13 | 2:38:14 | |
They're just some of the theories
you've sent in to us since we spoke | 2:38:14 | 2:38:18 | |
about sneezing yesterday. | 2:38:18 | 2:38:21 | |
We mention it regularly because when
you sneeze, not a single noise comes | 2:38:21 | 2:38:26 | |
out of your nose or your mouth. The
silent sneeze. We have picked this | 2:38:26 | 2:38:32 | |
up because of a story we heard
yesterday. A man much at his throat | 2:38:32 | 2:38:37 | |
while trying to stifle a sneeze. I
remember being told if you open your | 2:38:37 | 2:38:41 | |
eyes when you sneeze, your eyes pop
out of your head! | 2:38:41 | 2:38:49 | |
Here to help us separate fact
from fiction when it comes | 2:38:49 | 2:38:52 | |
to sneezing is John DeCarpentier,
an ear, nose and throat specialist. | 2:38:52 | 2:38:54 | |
Hello. Good morning. Shall we just
put to rest some of those theories. | 2:38:54 | 2:39:02 | |
Your eyes? Will not pop out. I'm so
glad you said that. | 2:39:02 | 2:39:07 | |
I have told him. I was told it at
school. Where has that come from? It | 2:39:07 | 2:39:14 | |
is an urban myth. You cannot pop you
are out. Is it because you cannot | 2:39:14 | 2:39:19 | |
open your eyes when you sneeze? No,
that is another one. It is possible | 2:39:19 | 2:39:24 | |
to sneeze with your eyes open. The
vast majority of people close their | 2:39:24 | 2:39:28 | |
eyes. When you are driving you
blink, you | 2:39:28 | 2:39:36 | |
blink, you do not have to close
them. They can be explosive? They're | 2:39:36 | 2:39:38 | |
always explosive, that is their
purpose. The purpose of the sneeze | 2:39:38 | 2:39:40 | |
is to get rid of something which is
irritating your nose normally. So | 2:39:40 | 2:39:44 | |
you let out a under great pressure
to try and expel the stuff from your | 2:39:44 | 2:39:49 | |
nose. If you're being polite you try
and divert it through your mouth but | 2:39:49 | 2:39:53 | |
the job is to get rid of stuff which
is irritating your nose. There is a | 2:39:53 | 2:39:59 | |
beautiful picture over your right
shoulder of the explanation from the | 2:39:59 | 2:40:07 | |
nasal passages and the mouth, how
fast is that travelling? Is it 200 | 2:40:07 | 2:40:11 | |
mph? Nobody really knows. Some
people have done tests where they | 2:40:11 | 2:40:16 | |
say up to 200. 100 is the commonly
quoted thing. Nobody really knows. | 2:40:16 | 2:40:21 | |
It is not something that doctors
really worry about. We know it comes | 2:40:21 | 2:40:26 | |
out quickly. We always notice when
you least want sneeze in next year | 2:40:26 | 2:40:31 | |
but other than that we're not
bothered about the speed. The reason | 2:40:31 | 2:40:34 | |
we were talking about this in the
first place is because somebody | 2:40:34 | 2:40:39 | |
damaged themselves by stifling a
sneeze. Is it damaging? It can be | 2:40:39 | 2:40:46 | |
damaging. To damage yourself by Sun
Life typically stifling the sneeze | 2:40:46 | 2:40:49 | |
can be incredibly rare. That is why
it is in name Journal. You can | 2:40:49 | 2:40:54 | |
fracture your ribs or her to a drum
is but lots of people stifle sneezes | 2:40:54 | 2:41:01 | |
without a problem but it is unwise.
Unwise. I have been told. I don't | 2:41:01 | 2:41:09 | |
like sneezing on him because I don't
like people at home having to listen | 2:41:09 | 2:41:14 | |
to me sneeze so I stifle them. You
should probably let them out. Some | 2:41:14 | 2:41:23 | |
facts have been coming up on the
screen. Do bright lights make people | 2:41:23 | 2:41:29 | |
sneeze? About a third of people,
when you go into a bright light it | 2:41:29 | 2:41:33 | |
will stimulate the nerve in your
face and they will sneeze because of | 2:41:33 | 2:41:40 | |
a reflex. Two thirds of people
don't. But if you do, you do. It is | 2:41:40 | 2:41:45 | |
flu season at the moment and
sneezing is a part of that as well. | 2:41:45 | 2:41:49 | |
You do need to be courteous and
think of other people. Yes, you | 2:41:49 | 2:41:53 | |
should, you should catch it and wash
hands like the campaign says. | 2:41:53 | 2:42:03 | |
hands like the campaign says. And
the Dracula manoeuvre is a good one, | 2:42:03 | 2:42:05 | |
where you sneeze into your arm. That
way when you shake somebody's hand, | 2:42:05 | 2:42:08 | |
you're not transmitting what you
have sneezed out. And when you do | 2:42:08 | 2:42:13 | |
sneeze and you have got a cold, the
cold virus can survive for a long | 2:42:13 | 2:42:17 | |
time on services, and that is how it
tends to spread. Can you tell the | 2:42:17 | 2:42:21 | |
difference between a sneeze because
of analogy and because you have got | 2:42:21 | 2:42:25 | |
a virus? No, they are both just
sneezes. Slicing is one of the four | 2:42:25 | 2:42:31 | |
major symptoms of analogy. When you
sneeze a lot, it is reasonable to be | 2:42:31 | 2:42:35 | |
tested to see if you are allergic to
something | 2:42:35 | 2:42:44 | |
something which is setting you. You
can have straightforward medication | 2:42:44 | 2:42:46 | |
-- a symptom of an allergy. I dead
want to ruin people's breakfast that | 2:42:46 | 2:42:52 | |
babies when they have a cold and
they do the double nostril. Babies | 2:42:52 | 2:43:00 | |
do not try and change the pressure,
they get it all up through their | 2:43:00 | 2:43:04 | |
nose and everything comes out.
Lovely! It has been one of the | 2:43:04 | 2:43:10 | |
discussions we have had a few times.
I look forward to your first full | 2:43:10 | 2:43:15 | |
volume sneeze.
I don't know if I can let it out. If | 2:43:15 | 2:43:21 | |
you do the Dracula without a sleeve,
it is slightly less... | 2:43:21 | 2:43:25 | |
Au! Thank you again. I think you
might have crossed a line. | 2:43:25 | 2:43:31 | |
A while ago! Thank you. | 2:43:31 | 2:43:39 | |
It's the largest surviving medieval
artefact in the world and it | 2:43:39 | 2:43:42 | |
documents one of the most important
events in British history. | 2:43:42 | 2:43:44 | |
But for the last 950 years,
the Bayeux Tapestry | 2:43:44 | 2:43:47 | |
has been in France. | 2:43:47 | 2:43:48 | |
Now, a deal struck between
Theresa May and the French President | 2:43:48 | 2:43:50 | |
means it will return to Britain
to go on display here. | 2:43:50 | 2:43:55 | |
Let's first have a look at it in its
current home. | 2:43:55 | 2:44:00 | |
It is magical to be taken back
thousand years in this dark chamber | 2:44:00 | 2:44:05 | |
to see history spelt out for you. 70
metres long, right down to the end | 2:44:05 | 2:44:10 | |
and round the back. I have seen this
many times. Every time I see it I | 2:44:10 | 2:44:19 | |
have to say it just brings the whole
story of William's invasion of | 2:44:19 | 2:44:25 | |
England alive. This was done by
people living only a few years after | 2:44:25 | 2:44:31 | |
the event. You really feel the power
and the passion that went into it. | 2:44:31 | 2:44:36 | |
It is a completely magical work of
art. | 2:44:36 | 2:44:45 | |
Maggie Kneen is a researcher who has
studied the tapestry | 2:44:45 | 2:44:48 | |
and she joins us now. | 2:44:48 | 2:44:52 | |
Thank you for joining us. We talk
about it a lot. What is it like? It | 2:44:52 | 2:44:58 | |
is amazing. I have only studied it
for about ten years. Before that, I | 2:44:58 | 2:45:04 | |
always used to class it in my mind
as something like how you would | 2:45:04 | 2:45:09 | |
think of the Mona Lisa or something.
It is really iconic, but when you | 2:45:09 | 2:45:15 | |
get to know it like I have been
lucky enough to do, you realise what | 2:45:15 | 2:45:20 | |
a treasure, what a treasure house
cities of information about what was | 2:45:20 | 2:45:26 | |
going on at the time. | 2:45:26 | 2:45:32 | |
It is so vast and people have tried
to get it back to the United Kingdom | 2:45:32 | 2:45:36 | |
and it has been turned down by
France. For you, you're smiling | 2:45:36 | 2:45:40 | |
already. I can see you're excited
about the fact that it is coming | 2:45:40 | 2:45:44 | |
back for a bit. This is incredible
and I went to study it in situ, | 2:45:44 | 2:45:50 | |
there has been talk about whether
the tapestry would ever come back to | 2:45:50 | 2:45:55 | |
England because it was made in
Canterbury. It is more or less | 2:45:55 | 2:46:01 | |
proven now through art historical
means. It was always will it, won't | 2:46:01 | 2:46:06 | |
it? Oh, and it's just come as such a
marvellous piece of news. It's going | 2:46:06 | 2:46:15 | |
to be so important for children, I
think, to learn from it. One of the | 2:46:15 | 2:46:20 | |
things we've been talking today is
there are lots of myths and it is a | 2:46:20 | 2:46:25 | |
tapestry... It is not. It's an
embroidery. You can see the sort of | 2:46:25 | 2:46:31 | |
individual stitching and it just,
you know, the intricacy of the work | 2:46:31 | 2:46:35 | |
is stunning. Yes. I have seen
pictures of the back of it and the | 2:46:35 | 2:46:41 | |
stitching is as beautiful on the
back as it is on the front. One of | 2:46:41 | 2:46:46 | |
the other myths we talked about
earlier was whether it was made by a | 2:46:46 | 2:46:51 | |
series of nuns, what's your view on
that? Well, I follow my friend Alex, | 2:46:51 | 2:47:01 | |
who is an embroiderist. Her theory
is it was made by groups of nuns, | 2:47:01 | 2:47:07 | |
but in the one place and that place
would have been St Awe gusten's | 2:47:07 | 2:47:13 | |
Abbey in Canterbury. St Awe gustens
was knocked down in the 16th century | 2:47:13 | 2:47:22 | |
it is just ruins now. There have
been many campaigns to try and get | 2:47:22 | 2:47:26 | |
it back and to have it on display. A
moment ago we saw David Dimbleby | 2:47:26 | 2:47:35 | |
travelling and he asked whether the
French would mind the tapestry | 2:47:35 | 2:47:38 | |
coming to Britain and here are the
answers. | 2:47:38 | 2:47:50 | |
It seems they are as passionate
about it as you are. What about | 2:48:23 | 2:48:27 | |
Harold getting one in eye. How
accurate is that because that's one | 2:48:27 | 2:48:30 | |
of the scenes on the tapestry? From
what I believe, again going back to | 2:48:30 | 2:48:35 | |
Alex's work, that was a Victorian
addition. The actual arrow that is | 2:48:35 | 2:48:44 | |
sewn on to the tapestry was added on
later on. Does it means if it comes | 2:48:44 | 2:48:49 | |
here, that if people like you can do
more investigation and more research | 2:48:49 | 2:48:54 | |
as well? Yes. That would be amazing
and really to see the back of it | 2:48:54 | 2:48:58 | |
rather than just a CD of images. It
would be tremendous for scholars. | 2:48:58 | 2:49:10 | |
Theresa May and Emmanuel Macron are
meeting tomorrow. We may hear about | 2:49:10 | 2:49:14 | |
how long and when we will get the
Bayeux Tapestry. Maggie has been | 2:49:14 | 2:49:20 | |
studying the tapestry for ten years.
You asked earlier about tapestry and | 2:49:20 | 2:49:26 | |
embroidery. A tapestry is made on a
loom and embroidery is by hand. The | 2:49:26 | 2:49:33 | |
picture is sewn on and drawn on to
the linen directly, I think. | 2:49:33 | 2:49:38 | |
Fascinating. Thank you very much
indeed. Thanks, Maggie. My pleasure. | 2:49:38 | 2:49:43 | |
Here's Carol with a look
at this morning's weather. | 2:49:43 | 2:49:47 | |
It has been a lovely day for people
who like the snow in many parts of | 2:49:47 | 2:49:52 | |
the United Kingdom! Look at the dog
behind you. | 2:49:52 | 2:49:56 | |
the United Kingdom! Look at the dog
behind you. Essenceable. He has got | 2:49:56 | 2:50:00 | |
his coat on! The heaviest of the
snow has been in Scotland and | 2:50:00 | 2:50:05 | |
northern England. This picture taken
in County Antrim. Another lovely | 2:50:05 | 2:50:09 | |
picture, you can see the depth of
the snow in done bain. | 2:50:09 | 2:50:15 | |
The snow stopped, but it is still
grey. If you are travelling this | 2:50:15 | 2:50:19 | |
morning, watch out for snow and ice.
Some of us have seen quite deep | 2:50:19 | 2:50:23 | |
snow. It has been blowing and
drifting as we've gone through the | 2:50:23 | 2:50:26 | |
course of the night into this
morning, but now it will start to | 2:50:26 | 2:50:32 | |
use off and the wind will start to
ease as well and the snow showers, | 2:50:32 | 2:50:36 | |
although they will be around won't
be as widespread. Come south of all | 2:50:36 | 2:50:40 | |
that snow and we're looking at drier
conditions. It will still feel cold. | 2:50:40 | 2:50:44 | |
There will be a lot of sunshine
around and any showers at sea level | 2:50:44 | 2:50:47 | |
will tend to be of rain, maybe with
some of the heavier showers we could | 2:50:47 | 2:50:52 | |
see sleet and hail. Across Scotland
we hang on to the snow showers. The | 2:50:52 | 2:50:56 | |
very nature of showers means not
everyone is going to catch one. For | 2:50:56 | 2:51:00 | |
Northern Ireland, again we've got
showers, some of those will be | 2:51:00 | 2:51:02 | |
wintry and across northern England
as well, but in between them, there | 2:51:02 | 2:51:05 | |
will be some sunshine. The wind
continuing to ease, but it will be a | 2:51:05 | 2:51:09 | |
windy day. South of that again,
through East Anglia and into Kent, | 2:51:09 | 2:51:14 | |
the Midlands and down towards
Hampshire and the Isle of Wight and | 2:51:14 | 2:51:16 | |
Wales down to the south-west, a lot
of sunshine. Some showers, but | 2:51:16 | 2:51:20 | |
mostly of rain, but big waves in the
west. Now through this evening and | 2:51:20 | 2:51:25 | |
overnight, our next area of low
pressure comes our way. This chart | 2:51:25 | 2:51:27 | |
has stopped at 8am just to show you
what's going to happen. We have got | 2:51:27 | 2:51:31 | |
this rain coming our way,
strengthening winds and hill snow. | 2:51:31 | 2:51:36 | |
Across Northern Ireland, mainly in
the north and across North Wales. If | 2:51:36 | 2:51:40 | |
we pick up the chart from 8pm until
5am, watch what happens. We're | 2:51:40 | 2:51:46 | |
looking at heavy snow pushing across
northern England and Southern | 2:51:46 | 2:51:49 | |
Scotland and possibly into the
Central Lowlands as well. Heavy rain | 2:51:49 | 2:51:54 | |
scooting across Northern Ireland,
Wales and England. Gusts of wind to | 2:51:54 | 2:51:59 | |
gale force inland, 40mph to 50mph
gusts. Along the coasts we're | 2:51:59 | 2:52:03 | |
looking at up to 70mph. Severe gales
along the coasts. There is the risk | 2:52:03 | 2:52:07 | |
of ice as well. This won't clear
eastern areas during tomorrow | 2:52:07 | 2:52:13 | |
morning's rush hour. It will be
later for you. Expect disruption | 2:52:13 | 2:52:16 | |
because of those elements and I will
show you what's going to happen | 2:52:16 | 2:52:19 | |
through the rest of tomorrow.
Through the morning, the whole low | 2:52:19 | 2:52:22 | |
pressure does pull away. Behind it,
the winds a touch. There will be | 2:52:22 | 2:52:25 | |
sunshine, but still a plethora of
showers coming into the west, still | 2:52:25 | 2:52:29 | |
at lower levels, across Western
Scotland in particular, Lou and Dan. | 2:52:29 | 2:52:35 | |
Thank you very much indeed, Carol
for looking after us. Thanks. | 2:52:35 | 2:52:43 | |
It's 8.52am. | 2:52:43 | 2:52:46 | |
It's just over 50 years
since abortion was first legalised | 2:52:46 | 2:52:48 | |
in Britain, and for many, it's still
a divisive and emotive subject. | 2:52:48 | 2:52:52 | |
This weekend a new BBC drama sets
out to explore the issue. | 2:52:52 | 2:52:56 | |
I Told My Mum I Was Going on an RE
Trip is based on real-life accounts | 2:52:56 | 2:53:00 | |
by health professionals, women,
men and young people from all sides | 2:53:00 | 2:53:02 | |
of the debate. | 2:53:02 | 2:53:07 | |
We'll speak to two of those
involved in the project | 2:53:07 | 2:53:13 | |
Writer and artistic director
Julia Samuels is here, | 2:53:13 | 2:53:15 | |
along with the actress Jamie-Lee
O'Donnell. | 2:53:15 | 2:53:18 | |
How is the drama done? We are using
a technique called recorded delivery | 2:53:18 | 2:53:23 | |
which basically means the actors are
listening to the real interviews. It | 2:53:23 | 2:53:27 | |
is almost all made from real
interviews and they're listening to | 2:53:27 | 2:53:30 | |
the actual recordings as they
perform. So they're copying what | 2:53:30 | 2:53:33 | |
they're hearing. The voices of real
people, everyone is going through, | 2:53:33 | 2:53:41 | |
you're going through the voices of
real experience with regards to the | 2:53:41 | 2:53:44 | |
subject matter. As we're performing
we're listening to the interviews | 2:53:44 | 2:53:48 | |
and that brings a realism to the
performance. It's not really about | 2:53:48 | 2:53:52 | |
creating a character because the
people are already there, the | 2:53:52 | 2:53:54 | |
stories have already happened and
it's just portraying them as true | 2:53:54 | 2:53:57 | |
and as honest as possible and it is
a really good technique. Shall we | 2:53:57 | 2:54:00 | |
have a look at how it works? | 2:54:00 | 2:54:07 | |
I was pregnant when I
was 16 with Ashley. | 2:54:07 | 2:54:09 | |
I kind of knew it was my decision
to have her and then March 2012, | 2:54:09 | 2:54:13 | |
I got pregnant again and I decided
that it was the wrong time | 2:54:13 | 2:54:19 | |
and that's when I thought I had
to have the abortion and I just | 2:54:19 | 2:54:24 | |
thought about Ashley,
her dad wasn't about, so I thought | 2:54:24 | 2:54:27 | |
I had to give her my 110% attention. | 2:54:27 | 2:54:29 | |
So she kind of made the decision
a bit easier as well. | 2:54:29 | 2:54:37 | |
It is a really divisive subject
still and people have moral | 2:54:41 | 2:54:47 | |
objections to abortion. Are you
renchs that in the drama too? It | 2:54:47 | 2:54:51 | |
started as a piece of theatre
actually and I did over 50 | 2:54:51 | 2:54:55 | |
interviews with lots of people,
women who had abortions and young | 2:54:55 | 2:54:58 | |
people with different opinions.
Campaigners, and doctors and there | 2:54:58 | 2:55:03 | |
is a really interesting section
where there is a doctor who is an | 2:55:03 | 2:55:08 | |
abortion care provider, but another
doctor who an objector and there are | 2:55:08 | 2:55:15 | |
scenes where young people are
grappling with how do they feel | 2:55:15 | 2:55:18 | |
about this? And there is a lot of
people in the middle going, "How do | 2:55:18 | 2:55:23 | |
I feel about this? I feel OK about
it in some situations, but not | 2:55:23 | 2:55:29 | |
others." It is exploring the debate
and the issue, something that | 2:55:29 | 2:55:32 | |
happens to so many women. You
mentioned something that happens so | 2:55:32 | 2:55:35 | |
many women. The figures are stark,
aren't they? One in three women in | 2:55:35 | 2:55:39 | |
the UK will have abortion in their
lifetime. Jamie-Lee, this is still a | 2:55:39 | 2:55:45 | |
taboo, it is not something that
people talk about, is it? You're | 2:55:45 | 2:55:49 | |
correct and where I'm | 2:55:49 | 2:55:58 | |
correct and where I'm from, it is
still illegal. Why people are | 2:55:58 | 2:56:02 | |
reluctant to discuss it and why it
makes so many people uncomfortable, | 2:56:02 | 2:56:08 | |
because of a piece like this will
explore it and get people talking. | 2:56:08 | 2:56:12 | |
What are the challenges? It has been
really tricky. We work with a really | 2:56:12 | 2:56:18 | |
fantastic film and TV director who
worked really closely with us to | 2:56:18 | 2:56:22 | |
look at how we could translate it
from theatre on to TV. I think | 2:56:22 | 2:56:27 | |
because it is mostly made from
interviews, the way that those | 2:56:27 | 2:56:30 | |
interviews were originally done was
a person talking to another person. | 2:56:30 | 2:56:34 | |
So actually that works quite well on
telly, it is a lot of people talking | 2:56:34 | 2:56:40 | |
to camera and just describing their
experiences. You're from Northern | 2:56:40 | 2:56:42 | |
Ireland. You're also in Derry Girls
at the moment. Yes. It has been well | 2:56:42 | 2:56:49 | |
received, what was that like?
Different. | 2:56:49 | 2:56:55 | |
LAUGHTER
Derry Girls is brilliant. It was a | 2:56:56 | 2:56:58 | |
great experience and so much fun to
do. It's a comedy and it's just, it | 2:56:58 | 2:57:03 | |
was brilliant and it has been so
well received which has been great | 2:57:03 | 2:57:06 | |
and as an actor getting to do Re
Trip And Derry Girls has been | 2:57:06 | 2:57:17 | |
fantastic. Both very good pieces.
Thank you very much for coming on | 2:57:17 | 2:57:20 | |
and talking about them. | 2:57:20 | 2:57:23 | |
And you can watch I Told My Mum
I Was Going on an RE Trip | 2:57:23 | 2:57:26 | |
on Saturday night
on BBC Two at 11.15pm. | 2:57:26 | 2:57:29 | |
Nice to see you both. | 2:57:29 | 2:57:32 | |
It's the most famous flying
team in British history. | 2:57:32 | 2:57:34 | |
Now, almost 75 years after carrying
out the daring Dambusters raid, | 2:57:34 | 2:57:37 | |
the RAF's 617 Squadron
is being reformed. | 2:57:37 | 2:57:38 | |
It's to mark 100 years
of the Royal British Air Force. | 2:57:38 | 2:57:41 | |
Let's speak to Sophie Raworth,
who's getting a sneak peak | 2:57:41 | 2:57:43 | |
of the new jets the team
will be flying. | 2:57:43 | 2:57:46 | |
And Sophie, you have
a personal connection | 2:57:46 | 2:57:48 | |
with the Air Force, haven't you? | 2:57:48 | 2:57:51 | |
I certainly have. If you have a look
at this, this is a photograph taken | 2:57:51 | 2:57:56 | |
in 1918 in France. It is a daylight
bomber. The man in the middle there | 2:57:56 | 2:58:01 | |
that you can see is my grandfather,
Captain Edw Raworth. By World War | 2:58:01 | 2:58:17 | |
II, of course, technology had moved
on and I have been to meet a man who | 2:58:17 | 2:58:21 | |
played a rather important part in
RAF history. | 2:58:21 | 2:58:24 | |
Amazing aircraft that, isn't it? | 2:58:25 | 2:58:26 | |
Absolutely. | 2:58:26 | 2:58:29 | |
George Johnny Johnson,
he's 96 years old and the last | 2:58:29 | 2:58:31 | |
surviving British member
of World War II's | 2:58:31 | 2:58:33 | |
famous Dambusters raid. | 2:58:33 | 2:58:37 | |
He joined the RAF in 1940,
one of many teenagers who signed up | 2:58:37 | 2:58:40 | |
to fight for their country. | 2:58:40 | 2:58:41 | |
He says it was thrilling. | 2:58:41 | 2:58:43 | |
I'd do the same again should
the situation arise and I find | 2:58:43 | 2:58:49 | |
that the satisfaction,
the personal satisfaction, | 2:58:49 | 2:58:53 | |
in being able to do
that was probably more | 2:58:53 | 2:58:55 | |
than anything else. | 2:58:55 | 2:58:58 | |
It's the sort of thing which I felt
I was actually doing something | 2:58:58 | 2:59:01 | |
useful and doing it well. | 2:59:01 | 2:59:06 | |
It was 75 years ago this May that
617 Squadron took off | 2:59:06 | 2:59:11 | |
in their Lancaster bombers
in their mission immortalised | 2:59:11 | 2:59:18 | |
in the Dambusters film to attack
dams in Germany's industrial | 2:59:18 | 2:59:20 | |
heartland using Barnes
Wallis' bouncing bomb. | 2:59:20 | 2:59:22 | |
The planes Johnny Johnson flew
are a world away from the aircraft | 2:59:22 | 2:59:25 | |
used by the RAF nowadays and he's
fascinated, not just | 2:59:25 | 2:59:29 | |
by the technology on board,
but also by the pilots learning | 2:59:29 | 2:59:31 | |
to fly them. | 2:59:31 | 2:59:35 | |
I can't understand any of it.
I wouldn't know where to begin. | 2:59:35 | 2:59:40 | |
It's a complete stranger,
but it's not a Lancaster. | 2:59:40 | 2:59:46 | |
I've always wanted to do it
since the age of four... | 2:59:46 | 2:59:49 | |
Flying officer Stephanie Searle
is one of the RAF's newest pilots | 2:59:49 | 2:59:52 | |
in awe of the stories from the past. | 2:59:52 | 2:59:59 | |
I hope I can measure
up to it to be honest. | 2:59:59 | 3:00:02 | |
A lot of them joined up
because of what was happening | 3:00:02 | 3:00:04 | |
in each of the world wars
and it was determination | 3:00:04 | 3:00:07 | |
and confidence and knowing
they were doing what was right | 3:00:07 | 3:00:09 | |
for their country. | 3:00:09 | 3:00:10 | |
I've been lucky enough to choose
this role for myself. | 3:00:10 | 3:00:13 | |
They were thrusted into it
and they just took to it and did | 3:00:13 | 3:00:16 | |
the best they could. | 3:00:16 | 3:00:17 | |
So I think it's more my ability
to measure up to them. | 3:00:17 | 3:00:20 | |
Johnny Johnson was one
of 133 men who took part | 3:00:20 | 3:00:22 | |
in the Dambusters raid. | 3:00:22 | 3:00:23 | |
53 of them never came home. | 3:00:23 | 3:00:25 | |
He still remembers
that night vividly. | 3:00:25 | 3:00:26 | |
I shall never forget
that Dambusters raid. | 3:00:26 | 3:00:28 | |
The highlight of that trip for me
was as we came home our route | 3:00:28 | 3:00:35 | |
was over what had been the Mohne Dam
and we knew which radio broadcast | 3:00:35 | 3:00:42 | |
it had been breached. | 3:00:42 | 3:00:44 | |
There was water everywhere.
It was just like an inland sea. | 3:00:44 | 3:00:46 | |
That, to me, was the sheer evidence
there had been some success. | 3:00:46 | 3:00:54 | |
We've done it. | 3:00:54 | 3:00:57 | |
That raid remains to this day
one of the most famous | 3:00:57 | 3:01:00 | |
in the Air Force's history. | 3:01:00 | 3:01:05 | |
So, as the RAF celebrates
its centenary, his advice | 3:01:05 | 3:01:07 | |
to the next generation. | 3:01:07 | 3:01:08 | |
Whatever you do, do it
to the best of your ability. | 3:01:08 | 3:01:11 | |
You'll find it makes you happy. | 3:01:11 | 3:01:12 | |
Had I had my time over again,
I would do the same again and hope | 3:01:12 | 3:01:16 | |
to get the same happiness
and enjoyment out of it than I did | 3:01:16 | 3:01:20 | |
for those 22 years I served. | 3:01:20 | 3:01:21 | |
I have to say thank
you to the Royal Air Force | 3:01:21 | 3:01:24 | |
for providing that life for me,
a wonderful life, it really was. | 3:01:24 | 3:01:32 | |
Johnnie Johnson. He was absolutely
wonderful. I have no idea what he | 3:01:38 | 3:01:42 | |
will make of this technology. This
is the latest state-of-the-art | 3:01:42 | 3:01:48 | |
cutting-edge Stealth fighter jet
which is arriving in the UK later | 3:01:48 | 3:01:51 | |
this year. It is the F 35 Lightning.
Flying it now is a test pilot based | 3:01:51 | 3:02:03 | |
in America. Tell us what you are
doing now and what it takes to fly? | 3:02:03 | 3:02:10 | |
I am in highly contested airspace
and I am using the stealth | 3:02:10 | 3:02:16 | |
characteristics of the F 35 to sneak
up on the aircraft. It is those | 3:02:16 | 3:02:20 | |
characteristics which allow us to go
where no other aircraft can go. And | 3:02:20 | 3:02:26 | |
it can also land vertically? That is
right. The F-35 was the world's | 3:02:26 | 3:02:34 | |
first supersonic aircraft. | 3:02:34 | 3:02:40 | |
first supersonic aircraft. I was a
Harrier pilot by trade. | 3:02:40 | 3:02:46 | |
Harrier pilot by trade. It has got
cruise control. We do not want the | 3:02:48 | 3:02:51 | |
pilot to be wrestling with his own
aircraft, we want him to be | 3:02:51 | 3:02:56 | |
concentrating on the adversary
aircraft. I will allow you to | 3:02:56 | 3:03:00 | |
concentrate on what you're doing.
I'm going to talk to an RAF | 3:03:00 | 3:03:04 | |
historian. It is 100 years on the
1st of April that the RAF was | 3:03:04 | 3:03:09 | |
formed. This new jet will be flown
by both Royal Navy pilots and Royal | 3:03:09 | 3:03:15 | |
Air Force pilots which is
effectively how the RAF came | 3:03:15 | 3:03:18 | |
together in the first place?... The
RF originated out of the Royal Navy | 3:03:18 | 3:03:26 | |
-- the RAF. You have gone full
circle. Your grandfather would not | 3:03:26 | 3:03:33 | |
recognise this technology. And
flight had only just taken place 15 | 3:03:33 | 3:03:39 | |
years before? That was the case. It
was quickly realised this was a new | 3:03:39 | 3:03:43 | |
form of warfare. By the end of 1918
it had proven itself as having a | 3:03:43 | 3:03:48 | |
dramatic affect. A third element of
warfare after land and sea. And the | 3:03:48 | 3:03:54 | |
significance of this jet, it is
great timing because it will stand | 3:03:54 | 3:04:03 | |
up with 617 Squadron, the legendary
Squadron. Yes, it is one of the RF's | 3:04:03 | 3:04:09 | |
great squadrons and it is testament
that it will be back on the front | 3:04:09 | 3:04:12 | |
line for the Royal Air Force. The
pilots of World War I and World War | 3:04:12 | 3:04:17 | |
II would not recognise the
technology we have these days but | 3:04:17 | 3:04:21 | |
also the size of the RAF. It is a
fraction of what it was. They look | 3:04:21 | 3:04:25 | |
at an aeroplane, it has two macro
wings and it does effectively the | 3:04:25 | 3:04:32 | |
same job but the size of the
aircraft is smaller. We do not need | 3:04:32 | 3:04:34 | |
the hundreds of thousands of
personnel to man the air force. The | 3:04:34 | 3:04:39 | |
technology is really filling that
gap and so the personnel are more | 3:04:39 | 3:04:42 | |
highly trained on the technology
which allows us to develop a much | 3:04:42 | 3:04:46 | |
higher firepower, if you like. Thank
you very much and to Andy as well | 3:04:46 | 3:04:52 | |
who was flying behind me. What do
you reckon, would you like a go? | 3:04:52 | 3:04:57 | |
Apparently it is very easy to fly.
I'm sure, but only in the simulator! | 3:04:57 | 3:05:04 | |
Thank you, Sophie. It looks amazing.
I'm sure on the 1st of April, the | 3:05:04 | 3:05:09 | |
anniversary of | 3:05:09 | 3:05:14 | |
the Royal Air Force, we will be
looking at it again. | 3:05:24 | 3:05:27 | |
Thank you. I crashed a simulator on
a school trip. I was going on a | 3:05:27 | 3:05:30 | |
school trip and we had a go on a
stimulator and I crashed within | 3:05:30 | 3:05:32 | |
about ten seconds.
I have done the same. It is brother | 3:05:32 | 3:05:34 | |
bleed because we are not pilots. | 3:05:34 | 3:05:38 | |
In a moment, we'll speak
to a ballerina who's lifting the lid | 3:05:38 | 3:05:41 | |
on balancing a dream career
as a ballerina, | 3:05:41 | 3:05:43 | |
with the demands of being a mum. | 3:05:43 | 3:05:44 | |
First though, here's a last,
brief look at the headlines | 3:05:44 | 3:07:21 | |
Bye for now. | 3:07:21 | 3:07:24 | |
Hello, welcome back, you are
watching breakfast. | 3:07:31 | 3:07:35 | |
When Laura Tye became pregnant, she,
like many mothers wondered how | 3:07:35 | 3:07:38 | |
she would be able to balance
work and parenthood. | 3:07:38 | 3:07:40 | |
What sets Laura apart
is that she's a soloist | 3:07:40 | 3:07:42 | |
for the Birmingham Royal Ballet. | 3:07:42 | 3:07:43 | |
It's an industry where very few
women have children and return | 3:07:43 | 3:07:46 | |
to dance at a top level. | 3:07:46 | 3:07:47 | |
Her journey has been captured
by a documentary team. | 3:07:47 | 3:07:49 | |
Let's take a look. | 3:07:49 | 3:07:54 | |
Asking other dancers,
do you want children | 3:07:54 | 3:07:57 | |
in a very excited way
and you get the response, | 3:07:57 | 3:08:01 | |
"Oh no. | 3:08:01 | 3:08:02 | |
No, not when I'm dancing, | 3:08:02 | 3:08:03 | |
I need to be there for my children". | 3:08:03 | 3:08:05 | |
I think they forget,
although I'm not there 24/7 | 3:08:05 | 3:08:07 | |
in person, I'm being there,
I'm providing for my children. | 3:08:07 | 3:08:12 | |
So that kind of hurts,
but I think people don't think | 3:08:12 | 3:08:15 | |
before they speak and
as a parent you take | 3:08:15 | 3:08:17 | |
it very personally. | 3:08:17 | 3:08:18 | |
Some people think that once you
become a mother, you're a mother. | 3:08:18 | 3:08:22 | |
Other people choose
to have their careers and have | 3:08:22 | 3:08:23 | |
children after and I've chose to do
it this way. | 3:08:23 | 3:08:28 | |
There's no right way,
there's no wrong way and I'm sure | 3:08:28 | 3:08:34 | |
things could have been easier,
but I'm not scared of a bit | 3:08:34 | 3:08:36 | |
of hard work and if people
judge me, then try a day. | 3:08:36 | 3:08:42 | |
Just try. | 3:08:42 | 3:08:43 | |
It's hard. | 3:08:43 | 3:08:46 | |
It's not easy and I think
I'm doing all right. | 3:08:46 | 3:08:54 | |
So do I, if I'm allowed to that
opinion! | 3:08:55 | 3:08:58 | |
Ballerina Laura Tye joins us now. | 3:08:58 | 3:09:03 | |
Thank you for joining us. You were
talking about the difficulties. And | 3:09:03 | 3:09:07 | |
presumably, physically, as a
ballerina, and as a mum, to go back, | 3:09:07 | 3:09:14 | |
you are really challenging yourself?
Yes, ballet by itself is such a | 3:09:14 | 3:09:19 | |
demanding career. You have to be so
dedicated and you train from such a | 3:09:19 | 3:09:23 | |
young age, you don't really know
anything else. On the other hand, | 3:09:23 | 3:09:28 | |
motherhood, nothing prepares you for
how challenging batters, but at the | 3:09:28 | 3:09:32 | |
same time how rewarding. The two
things are very rewarding things in | 3:09:32 | 3:09:40 | |
my life and it is wonderful to bring
them together and capture them on | 3:09:40 | 3:09:43 | |
film. When you found out you were
pregnant with your first child, did | 3:09:43 | 3:09:46 | |
you think career-wise, that is over?
When I found out I was pregnant all | 3:09:46 | 3:09:51 | |
sorts of things flashed through my
mind. Is this the end of my career, | 3:09:51 | 3:09:56 | |
can I juggle this? I will have to
train for something else while I am | 3:09:56 | 3:10:00 | |
on maternity leave. But I thought, I
have to work financially, I cannot | 3:10:00 | 3:10:04 | |
stay at home, that is not an option.
I thought I may as well give it a go | 3:10:04 | 3:10:09 | |
and do something I love. How did
other people in the industry | 3:10:09 | 3:10:16 | |
respond? I think they thought I was
crazy! It is always a shock when | 3:10:16 | 3:10:22 | |
someone says they will continue
their career as a ballet dancer. You | 3:10:22 | 3:10:27 | |
have two little girls and presumably
they love having a mum who is a | 3:10:27 | 3:10:32 | |
ballet dancer. Recently I have said
money is getting older, I might have | 3:10:32 | 3:10:36 | |
to get a different job and they say
no, please stay | 3:10:36 | 3:10:49 | |
no, please stay being a ballet
dancer. What is it like when they | 3:10:49 | 3:10:51 | |
watch you? Last year was the first
time they could come to the theatre | 3:10:51 | 3:10:54 | |
and watch me perform. It was hard
keeping the tears back. We know how | 3:10:54 | 3:10:58 | |
physically demanding ballet dancing
is and the strain on the body, what | 3:10:58 | 3:11:01 | |
was it like coming back to that
after having the children? I ended | 3:11:01 | 3:11:06 | |
up with an umbilical hernia. The
first time round I learned a lot. | 3:11:06 | 3:11:12 | |
You have to take it very slowly
because your bones soften when you | 3:11:12 | 3:11:18 | |
are pregnant. Your body goes through
a massive change and I think you | 3:11:18 | 3:11:21 | |
have to not put too much pressure on
yourself. The second time round I | 3:11:21 | 3:11:26 | |
took my time and did Pilates and a
lot of physical therapy. The | 3:11:26 | 3:11:34 | |
documentary is called Balance, but I
don't know how to say it. It is | 3:11:34 | 3:11:39 | |
written in French and it is a ballet
step which moves from side to side | 3:11:39 | 3:11:47 | |
which shows I was trying to juggle
and move from motherhood to a | 3:11:47 | 3:11:54 | |
career. I always call it Balance
because my French accent is not very | 3:11:54 | 3:11:59 | |
good! | 3:11:59 | 3:12:04 | |
good! Are you managing to go back?
The key moment was when they were in | 3:12:04 | 3:12:11 | |
the audience. I did not want to have
a go at it and fail and miss out on | 3:12:11 | 3:12:17 | |
their growing up and not have
something to show and now I have the | 3:12:17 | 3:12:21 | |
pictures and the film as well to
show what I did and how hard I have | 3:12:21 | 3:12:26 | |
worked. When you got pregnant at the
age of 28, you said you considered | 3:12:26 | 3:12:32 | |
it being the end of your ballet
career. Did you start to retrain and | 3:12:32 | 3:12:36 | |
do something else? I was going to
learn Spanish but there is no time | 3:12:36 | 3:12:40 | |
when you are a new parent. What
would you do if you were not a | 3:12:40 | 3:12:45 | |
ballerina? I'm starting to think
about it now. I would like to break | 3:12:45 | 3:12:48 | |
down the barriers to the arts
because it is not accessible to | 3:12:48 | 3:12:51 | |
everybody. I would like to | 3:12:51 | 3:13:03 | |
bring it to the masses. Darcey
Bussell went back after having her | 3:13:05 | 3:13:07 | |
children. Do you think you and her
are inspiring other young | 3:13:07 | 3:13:09 | |
ballerinas? I hope so, we should not
have to choose. We have worked so | 3:13:09 | 3:13:12 | |
hard and I don't think such a
wonderful thing is becoming a parent | 3:13:12 | 3:13:15 | |
should not be the thing that stops
your career. Can I say your posture | 3:13:15 | 3:13:21 | |
is very good! I slouch. I feel I
should sit up correctly. | 3:13:21 | 3:13:26 | |
It is wonderful to see. And the
documentary is winning prizes. | 3:13:26 | 3:13:33 | |
The documentary Balance
is available on Amazon Prime. | 3:13:33 | 3:13:38 | |
We just found out that BBC Breakfast
macro is 35 years old today. Let's | 3:13:38 | 3:13:44 | |
go and eat cake! Have a great day,
bye-bye. | 3:13:44 | 3:13:51 |
