0:00:07 > 0:00:10Hello - this is Breakfast, with Charlie Stayt and Naga
0:00:10 > 0:00:10Munchetty.
0:00:10 > 0:00:13The number of younger people in England having a stroke
0:00:13 > 0:00:14has risen sharply.
0:00:14 > 0:00:17Obesity, alcohol and smoking are thought
0:00:17 > 0:00:21to be behind the increase - doctors want more of us to be aware
0:00:21 > 0:00:29of the symptoms.
0:00:39 > 0:00:40Good morning - it's Thursday 1 February.
0:00:40 > 0:00:48Also this morning:
0:00:53 > 0:00:56Also this morning: As the Prime Minister visits China she says
0:00:56 > 0:01:00she will oppose plans from Brussels to give EU migrants full residency
0:01:00 > 0:01:00rights after Brexit.
0:01:00 > 0:01:04Calls to do more to close the education gap between the North
0:01:04 > 0:01:11and South in England - or face economic consequences.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13Are you penalised for being
0:01:13 > 0:01:14a loyal customer?
0:01:14 > 0:01:17New figures say we could be paying nearly £1,000 too much for internet
0:01:17 > 0:01:20and energy because we stay with the same supplier.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23I've got some top tips on how to cut your bills.
0:01:23 > 0:01:25Good morning, in sport, a record spend
0:01:25 > 0:01:26on transfer deadline day.
0:01:26 > 0:01:27Premier League Clubs £150 million
0:01:27 > 0:01:29as Arsenal break their transfer record by signing
0:01:29 > 0:01:34striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
0:01:34 > 0:01:40And Carol is in the City of London with the weather. 35 stories above
0:01:40 > 0:01:44street level in the walkie-talkie building, some fabulous views of
0:01:44 > 0:01:49London. But it is cold inside and outside, you need to wrap up. Snow
0:01:49 > 0:01:55showers in the north of the country but a lot of dry weather to many of
0:01:55 > 0:02:01us through today. More in 15 minutes.
0:02:02 > 0:02:03First, our main story.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07The number of over-40s suffering a stroke for the first time has
0:02:07 > 0:02:08risen sharply in the last decade.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10That's according to figures from Public Health England,
0:02:10 > 0:02:13which show 20% of stroke cases now occur in those aged
0:02:13 > 0:02:14between 40 and 59.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17Our Health Correspondent Catherine Burns reports.
0:02:17 > 0:02:23My dad had a stroke. I had a stroke. I had a stroke.Be all DY, the
0:02:23 > 0:02:27greater the chance of it happening to you but the average age of men
0:02:27 > 0:02:35having a first stroke has fallen from 71 to 68. For women, 75 down to
0:02:35 > 0:02:4073. Adrian Jones was just 53 when he had won.When I worked up in the
0:02:40 > 0:02:44morning, I didn't feel it straightaway and then when I twisted
0:02:44 > 0:02:49and tried to stand up, I immediately fell over. I couldn't feel, I had no
0:02:49 > 0:02:54sensation on my left side at all. Figures breakdown at what age people
0:02:54 > 0:03:00had first strokes. Almost 60% were 70 or over. But it's interesting to
0:03:00 > 0:03:06see the increase in middle-aged people affected. In 2007, 15% of
0:03:06 > 0:03:18first time stroke patients were aged between 40- 59.By 2016, up to 20%.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23We know of the city is a real national problem and that certainly
0:03:23 > 0:03:27contributes to stroke. Diabetes is a strong risk factor. And I think that
0:03:27 > 0:03:30there are issues around lifestyle as well. We all lead a much more
0:03:30 > 0:03:34sedentary life than we used to. Early treatment can help reduce the
0:03:34 > 0:03:37risk of disability or death so a campaign has been launched to help
0:03:37 > 0:03:43people recognise the symptoms as quickly as possible. Face, has it
0:03:43 > 0:03:49fallen on one side? 40- 74 -year-olds in England are able to
0:03:49 > 0:03:52get help checks to stop the sign of strokes.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56We'll be getting more on those figures from Public Health England
0:03:56 > 0:03:57Public Health England at 6:20.
0:03:57 > 0:04:01The Prime Minister has indicated that EU citizens who move to the UK
0:04:01 > 0:04:02during the transition period after Brexit,
0:04:02 > 0:04:06may not get the same rights as those who come to the country before.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09Speaking during a visit to China, Theresa May said
0:04:09 > 0:04:10that when Britain voted for Brexit,
0:04:10 > 0:04:12it did not do so "for nothing
0:04:12 > 0:04:15to change when we come out of the EU".
0:04:15 > 0:04:21Our correspondent Stephen McDonell is in Beijng.
0:04:21 > 0:04:27Good morning. It's interesting. She is on the other side of the world
0:04:27 > 0:04:33but she is still talking about Brexit.Absolutely. Some will see
0:04:33 > 0:04:37this as the Prime Minister getting tough on Europe, saying EU citizens
0:04:37 > 0:04:42in that transition period will not have the same rights as those in
0:04:42 > 0:04:46Britain right now. We don't know what she is talking about in terms
0:04:46 > 0:04:52of rights and some will judge this position when we know what rights we
0:04:52 > 0:04:55are talking about, however the flipside is that it will be
0:04:55 > 0:05:01interpreted by others as a sign of political weakness. Here is Theresa
0:05:01 > 0:05:06May, she is in Beijing. She will be going into the Great Hall of the
0:05:06 > 0:05:11People behind me to meet one of the two most powerful people in the
0:05:11 > 0:05:14world and discuss trade deals potentially worth billions of pounds
0:05:14 > 0:05:20to Britain. And it's all talk about Brexit and the rights of EU
0:05:20 > 0:05:27citizens. At the very least, it's fair to say Theresa May is fairly
0:05:27 > 0:05:33worried about this.We will keep in touch with you to write the morning.
0:05:33 > 0:05:37The economic gap between the north and the south will continue to grow,
0:05:37 > 0:05:39unless the government prioritises northern education.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41That's the warning this morning from the Northern Powerhouse Partnership,
0:05:41 > 0:05:45an independent body set up to improve the state of the north.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47They say disadvantaged children are being let down,
0:05:47 > 0:05:50and that a lack of funding and aspiration are holding back
0:05:50 > 0:05:53the northern economy.
0:05:57 > 0:06:01If your child is born in the north-east, the latest league tables
0:06:01 > 0:06:05suggest there is one in five chance he or she will go to an
0:06:05 > 0:06:09underperforming school. Born in London, the chances are just one in
0:06:09 > 0:06:1515. Today's report says the key to closing the north-south divide
0:06:15 > 0:06:19includes £300 million of new money for early years development, making
0:06:19 > 0:06:23the north a world leader in apprenticeships, and all Northern
0:06:23 > 0:06:27businesses meant touring young people.How are you finding the
0:06:27 > 0:06:39communications?Berkeley 's is one of
0:06:40 > 0:06:43of the business businesses behind today's reports, with more than 500
0:06:43 > 0:06:46northern apprentices.I think it was an opportunity that I was quite
0:06:46 > 0:06:50surprised to find that I didn't have to move away for book is my
0:06:50 > 0:06:53preconception was that you would probably have to move to have a
0:06:53 > 0:06:56really good career but my view has completely changed on that. You can
0:06:56 > 0:06:59do it from anywhere.Is the government now stepping up after
0:06:59 > 0:07:03being accused of ignoring the Northern Powerhouse post George
0:07:03 > 0:07:08Osborne?It's the £70 million we put into our Northern Powerhouse schools
0:07:08 > 0:07:12strategy which goes all the way from early years provision and making
0:07:12 > 0:07:16sure it is as good as it can beat the maths and English clubs we have
0:07:16 > 0:07:21set up.The authors of the report say it is followed, there could be
0:07:21 > 0:07:26850,000 new jobs and £100 billion of new money in the northern economy.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29They claim that children from all backgrounds and postcodes will be
0:07:29 > 0:07:35given a fairer start.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40The Liberal Democrats have claimed that a key government target,
0:07:40 > 0:07:48for treating people with severe mental health conditions in England,
0:07:53 > 0:07:55isn't being met.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58The party says it gathered evidence which shows people
0:07:58 > 0:08:00experiencing a first episode of psychosis aren't getting
0:08:00 > 0:08:01a quality care package.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03NHS England says more than three-quarters of patients
0:08:03 > 0:08:06are seen within two weeks - and that the research shows
0:08:06 > 0:08:09a partial and "dated" picture of the services provided.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11Former health secretary, Norman lamb, said mental health
0:08:11 > 0:08:13services lagged behind those for other illnesses.
0:08:13 > 0:08:17This would never be taller tape -- tolerated in cancer or any of the
0:08:17 > 0:08:20fiscal healthcare but it is tolerated here. We have the evidence
0:08:20 > 0:08:24you need to do to have an impact and get across the country, it's not
0:08:24 > 0:08:24being funded.
0:08:24 > 0:08:28Hate crime against Jewish people in the UK is at a record high.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30A new report from the "Community Security Trust",
0:08:30 > 0:08:32which monitors anti-semitism, says the Jewsih community
0:08:32 > 0:08:35was targeted at a rate of nearly four-times-a-day last year.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38Online abuse is said to have fallen, but there's been a spike in reports
0:08:38 > 0:08:39of violent assault.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42Police in England, Wales and Scotland fired tasers 22 times
0:08:42 > 0:08:45on mental health wards between April and September last year.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47The BBC has obtained figures which showed they were used
0:08:47 > 0:08:50four times against people under the age of 17,
0:08:50 > 0:08:51and once on a 15-year-old.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Figures were provided by 43 police forces,
0:08:53 > 0:08:59but the Metropolitan Police and the Police Service
0:08:59 > 0:09:03in Northern Ireland did not respond to the request from Radio 5live.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06The head of Ofsed is warning that schools in England are being used
0:09:06 > 0:09:09to indoctrinate pupils under the guise of religious education.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11In a speech today, Amanda Spielman will warn
0:09:11 > 0:09:14that the most conservative voices of particular faith groups do not
0:09:14 > 0:09:17speak for everyone, and schools should not be afraid to call out
0:09:17 > 0:09:20practices they think will negatively impact younger people.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Facebook says changes to its newsfeed have led
0:09:22 > 0:09:30to a significant drop in usage.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32People are said to be spending an average
0:09:32 > 0:09:34of a minute-and-a-half less each day on the network.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37The changes - fewer viral videos and more checks on advertising -
0:09:37 > 0:09:40were introduced partly to combat so-called fake news.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42For the first time since the Second World War,
0:09:42 > 0:09:45MPs look set to move out of the Palace of Westminster,
0:09:45 > 0:09:47while major renovation work is carried out.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49They voted in favour of the move last night.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52The repair programme will cost billions of pounds.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54Simon Jones reports.
0:09:54 > 0:09:59It may be a palace but one that is in desperate need of repair. Anyone
0:09:59 > 0:10:03who has had building work done on our home will know it can be
0:10:03 > 0:10:07stressful but MPs are now facing the prospect of moving the several years
0:10:07 > 0:10:11while it is carried out. It will cost billions, with both the Commons
0:10:11 > 0:10:15and the House of Lords having to up sticks, most likely to another part
0:10:15 > 0:10:20of Whitehall. Many MPs say it is the only option. The building is
0:10:20 > 0:10:28crumbling, it needs rewiring and it's not safe.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33it's not safe. Conditions were even worse than down the pit.There are
0:10:33 > 0:10:36some steel props holding the roof up. It looks like the workplace are
0:10:36 > 0:10:40used to work in the fray came into this building, in the colliery.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43Other MPs are reluctant to go, arguing the work should be done
0:10:43 > 0:10:46around them.The right concerns about the cost. The laws still had
0:10:46 > 0:10:50to give their approval and with the proposed departure not until 2025,
0:10:50 > 0:10:53that is after the next general election, the next parliament may
0:10:53 > 0:10:58take a different view.
0:10:59 > 0:11:05It is 6:10 a.m.. Let's find out what is happening in sport. This transfer
0:11:05 > 0:11:09window, the amount of money that is going to be spent, it is going to
0:11:09 > 0:11:17get bigger?Yesterday was the biggest final day and the man
0:11:18 > 0:11:25biggest final day and the man behind you, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, is
0:11:25 > 0:11:34very happy. He will be wearing the number 13 -- number 14 shirt of
0:11:34 > 0:11:42Thierry Henry. They got their man to £56 million. The striker from Gabon
0:11:42 > 0:11:48was the German club's top striker.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55Elsewhere, Tottenham paid £26 million for Brazilian winger Lucas
0:11:55 > 0:11:55Moura.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58He joins from Paris Saint-Germain after only playing six times
0:11:58 > 0:12:00for the French side this season
0:12:00 > 0:12:02Manchester City are now 15 points clear at the top
0:12:02 > 0:12:06of the Premier League after they won and nearest rivals Manchester United
0:12:06 > 0:12:06lost at Tottenham.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09Christian Eriksen scored the quickest goal of the season,
0:12:09 > 0:12:13just over ten seconds after kick off to set up a two nil win for Spurs.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16And Great Britain's Davis Cup team are waiting on the fitness
0:12:16 > 0:12:19of Kyle Edmund for the first round tie against Spain which begins
0:12:19 > 0:12:20in Marbella tomorrow.
0:12:20 > 0:12:27Edmund picked up the hip problem during his semi-final defeat
0:12:27 > 0:12:31to Marin Cilic at the Australian Open last week.
0:12:31 > 0:12:36I will have known all that transfers after 6:30 a.m..There is a lot to
0:12:36 > 0:12:38go through. Quite a bit.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40Here's Carol with a look at this morning's weather,
0:12:40 > 0:12:4834 storeys above the City of London.
0:12:48 > 0:12:57I have not got vertigo. I am in the sky garden. You can see Tower Bridge
0:12:57 > 0:13:03behind me. There has been quite a bit of clear sky as specially in
0:13:03 > 0:13:11eastern areas. Hence this super-moon and the views were amazing. It is a
0:13:11 > 0:13:11cold start
0:13:11 > 0:13:15and the views were amazing. It is a cold start to the day. Today's
0:13:15 > 0:13:20forecast is just that. Cold wind exacerbating that feel. We've also
0:13:20 > 0:13:25got the risk of ice first thing in the morning. If you start the
0:13:25 > 0:13:29forecast at nine o'clock, we got a mixture of rain, sleet and snow.
0:13:29 > 0:13:37Don't have to move to bar in man. A lot of dry weather but again, cold.
0:13:37 > 0:13:43A lot of sunshine to start the day. That is the same as you move towards
0:13:43 > 0:13:48the Midland, East Anglia and the south-east. It is cold but there
0:13:48 > 0:13:56will be sunshine. Again, a lot of dry weather but some showers around.
0:13:56 > 0:14:06Into Gloucestershire, Wales seeing a few. Foremost, it's dry start. You
0:14:06 > 0:14:11will also see some show -- snow showers in Northern Ireland. Still
0:14:11 > 0:14:19only accumulating. We continue with snow showers through the day. It's
0:14:19 > 0:14:24going to be a windy day as well. Looking at gales across parts of the
0:14:24 > 0:14:30north and the west. Possibly even severe gales across the north and
0:14:30 > 0:14:35north-west of Scotland. Despite the temperatures, it will feel colder
0:14:35 > 0:14:42than that because of the wind. Again, is going to be fairly windy.
0:14:42 > 0:14:49We will have snow showers in the north, a few in the east. It is
0:14:49 > 0:14:58going to be a cold night, perhaps -1, one degree. In rural areas, the
0:14:58 > 0:15:02temperatures are in difficult -- indicative of towns and cities. We
0:15:02 > 0:15:10start with a ridge of high pressure. The many of us, it will be dry.
0:15:10 > 0:15:18Across the east coast, showers coming in from the North Sea. Later
0:15:18 > 0:15:22on in the day, a weather front will come in from the West. Tomorrow will
0:15:22 > 0:15:28not feel as cold. The fund coming into the West. A mixture of rain,
0:15:28 > 0:15:35sleet and also some hail. -- the front. More snow likely to
0:15:35 > 0:15:42accumulate. That is something we will have to keep a close eye on. Do
0:15:42 > 0:15:53keep tuned. The outlook even into next week is a cold one.
0:15:55 > 0:15:59We look forward to staying with you as the light emerges, it will be
0:15:59 > 0:16:04beautiful.Are like the dark skyline with the lights, very pretty. -- I
0:16:04 > 0:16:10like. The front page of the Sun, this is looking at one fans
0:16:10 > 0:16:15yesterday who are upset that the Grand Prix grid girls are being
0:16:15 > 0:16:20axed. They're saying motor racing chiefs are forcing women out of
0:16:20 > 0:16:24work. This is something we're going to be talking about, last week, on
0:16:24 > 0:16:29the weekend, we talked about darts getting rid of the women that hold
0:16:29 > 0:16:33up the signs and the trophies and now Formula 1 has followed suit. On
0:16:33 > 0:16:37the front page of the Daily Mail, talking about a health story, a
0:16:37 > 0:16:41different story from our lead story this morning which is to do with
0:16:41 > 0:16:45younger people suffering from strokes, especially those between 40
0:16:45 > 0:16:50and 49, this story is about Baby Boomers ruining their health with
0:16:50 > 0:16:54heavy home drinking alcohol, the sixth biggest cause of illness for
0:16:54 > 0:16:59those in their 50s and sixties. Front page of the Times, MPs leaving
0:16:59 > 0:17:06the Palace of Westminster for the first time since the Blitz. They
0:17:06 > 0:17:10will move out for at least six years because of the multimillion pound
0:17:10 > 0:17:17refurbishment. The picture on the front is a picture of Tatiana
0:17:17 > 0:17:21Ahmedova, with Baroness Shackleton, after she said she has received
0:17:21 > 0:17:27almost nothing after her pay-out. This is the former wife of a Russian
0:17:27 > 0:17:32billionaire. On the front page of the Daily Telegraph, a picture from
0:17:32 > 0:17:37outside the House of Commons yesterday, a gathering of BBC women.
0:17:37 > 0:17:41This is after the testimony of Carrie Gracie, former China editor
0:17:41 > 0:17:48at the BBC and that was the gathering yesterday afternoon. Good
0:17:48 > 0:17:53morning, Ben, what are you looking at?I'm not the bearer of good news,
0:17:53 > 0:17:57lots of numbers from retailers yesterday, we're waiting to see how
0:17:57 > 0:18:02they did at Christmas and a story in the Telegraph here, TalkTalk, the
0:18:02 > 0:18:07big broadband provider, it has concerns over whether it will be
0:18:07 > 0:18:11able to pay back some of its debts after a lot of competition for
0:18:11 > 0:18:17broadband. Vodafone, the mobile phone firm, will get involved in
0:18:17 > 0:18:20fixed line broadband, so lots of competition in the market and prices
0:18:20 > 0:18:26could fall. That has pushed shares down 17%. Yesterday you may know the

0:19:50 > 0:19:55the year. That's pretty good going. That can't be right, it can't be

0:22:21 > 0:22:26extra chocolate today?A quarter. Is this the new thing, we're watching
0:22:26 > 0:22:30everyone as they walk off, we have started something new.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33We've been hearing the number of people suffering strokes in middle
0:22:33 > 0:22:37age has risen sharply. Although we tend to associate strokes with older
0:22:37 > 0:22:41people, more than a third are now occurring in people aged between 40
0:22:41 > 0:22:46and 69. In the last decade the average age of a male stroke victim
0:22:46 > 0:22:51has gone down from 71 to 68. In England, one in six people have a
0:22:51 > 0:22:56stroke in their lifetime. Two thirds of survivors will be left with a
0:22:56 > 0:22:58disability.
0:22:58 > 0:23:01With us is Professor Julia Byrne from Public Health England. Good
0:23:01 > 0:23:05morning.Good morning.Do the figures surprise you? The number of
0:23:05 > 0:23:10people having strokes in England, the age of those, it is becoming
0:23:10 > 0:23:14lower?It was a bit of a surprise but it's reflecting our success in
0:23:14 > 0:23:18preventing stroke in older people and shining the light on the need
0:23:18 > 0:23:24for action to raise the risk factors of stroke in younger people and also
0:23:24 > 0:23:27the signs and symptoms so people can get to hospital quickly for
0:23:27 > 0:23:32treatment.Just to be clear, success in reducing the number of older
0:23:32 > 0:23:38people, older than the age of 59? Older than 70.Older than 70, that
0:23:38 > 0:23:41number has been reduced, does that mean the number of younger people
0:23:41 > 0:23:46has increased? Or proportionally it's now bigger?Proportionately
0:23:46 > 0:23:51bigger.So that number hasn't increased?No, but it's shining a
0:23:51 > 0:23:55light on the fact we need to do more to reduced the number of strokes in
0:23:55 > 0:24:00younger people.What evidence are you seeing in terms of the factors
0:24:00 > 0:24:06affecting the changes?The main factors are diabetes and high blood
0:24:06 > 0:24:09pressure, increasing obesity, those other risk factors for stroke but
0:24:09 > 0:24:13what we're really interested in is raising public awareness of the
0:24:13 > 0:24:19signs and symptoms of stroke, and that's the Fast campaign we're
0:24:19 > 0:24:23launching today. If anyone sees weakness in the face, weakness in
0:24:23 > 0:24:27the arms or slurring of speech, those are the three key symptoms and
0:24:27 > 0:24:31if someone has even won then they should phone 999 and get the
0:24:31 > 0:24:34individual to hospital quickly. There have been some high profile
0:24:34 > 0:24:38campaigns and I would have thought they were largely deemed effective,
0:24:38 > 0:24:42quite shocking some of them, and precisely on that, knowing when
0:24:42 > 0:24:46something is happening to someone. Are they deemed not to have been
0:24:46 > 0:24:51very successful?Their very successful and the public are
0:24:51 > 0:24:57getting better at recognising the signs of stroke but they're still
0:24:57 > 0:25:01hesitant at calling 999 and getting the patient to hospital quickly.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04There's a three-hour window between the development of strokes and the
0:25:04 > 0:25:12benefit of giving clot medicine. That's why we're emphasising the
0:25:12 > 0:25:14importance of recognising signs and symptoms and doing something about
0:25:14 > 0:25:21it.Just to go into the basics of a stroke, it is a blood clot?Almost
0:25:21 > 0:25:26all strokes are blood clots in the brain. A small proportion are bleeds
0:25:26 > 0:25:30in the blame, it's very like a heart attack and no one would have any
0:25:30 > 0:25:34hesitation in calling an ambulance if they saw someone they thought was
0:25:34 > 0:25:37developing a heart attack. Today Public Health England want to
0:25:37 > 0:25:41encourage people to treat stroke in the same way because the chances of
0:25:41 > 0:25:44preventing death and disability are very high if you can get the patient
0:25:44 > 0:25:48to hospital in time.There's a lot of talk about the causes of stroke,
0:25:48 > 0:25:52we talk about the reasons we are more vulnerable to heart attacks and
0:25:52 > 0:25:56health issues. One of the papers today is taking a look at the issue
0:25:56 > 0:26:02of how much we drink, saying wine of clot is now so big it's a problem --
0:26:02 > 0:26:08wine of clock. How much can you link alcohol, smoking, obesity 2-stroke?
0:26:08 > 0:26:14These are all risk factors. The biggest are high blood pressure and
0:26:14 > 0:26:19diabetes. Smoking is a big risk factor, as is heavy alcohol intake.
0:26:19 > 0:26:23One of the problems, as you just described, often people aren't aware
0:26:23 > 0:26:28of quite how much they're drinking so we put these factors together and
0:26:28 > 0:26:32it increases the risk of both heart attack and stroke, but I think one
0:26:32 > 0:26:37of our challenges today is that younger people aged 45 and 69,
0:26:37 > 0:26:43working age people, aren't really aware
0:26:46 > 0:26:50aware that they are at risk so that's why we're trying to drive the
0:26:50 > 0:26:53message home.You're coming back later during the programme, I'm sure
0:26:53 > 0:26:57people will have questions and we will be looking at some of those
0:26:57 > 0:27:00later. For the moment, thanks very much.
0:27:00 > 0:30:24Time to get the news, travel
0:30:24 > 0:30:25Now it's back to Charley and Naga
0:30:32 > 0:30:34Hello - this is Breakfast with Charlie Stayt
0:30:34 > 0:30:37and Naga Munchetty.
0:30:37 > 0:30:40We'll bring you all the latest news and sport in a moment,
0:30:40 > 0:30:44but also on Breakfast this morning:
0:30:44 > 0:30:47Chips, crisps and cake are apparently fuelling a pet
0:30:47 > 0:30:51obesity crisis in the UK - we'll hear how even a tin of tuna
0:30:51 > 0:30:53could be making your cat fat.
0:30:53 > 0:30:56We'll be asking if schools should spend less time teaching
0:30:56 > 0:30:59maths and science so that pupils can have lessons in happiness.
0:30:59 > 0:31:02And we'll meet the writer and director who sold his double
0:31:02 > 0:31:04glazing firm to pursue his dream in film.
0:31:04 > 0:31:12He'll be here to tell us about his debut
0:31:15 > 0:31:17featuring Hollywood stars Harvey Keitel and Gabriel Byrne!
0:31:17 > 0:31:25Here's a summary of today's main stories from BBC News.
0:31:39 > 0:31:39The
0:31:39 > 0:31:42The Prime Minister has indicated that she will fight EU proposals
0:31:42 > 0:31:43that she will fight EU proposals
0:31:43 > 0:31:46to give residency rights to European citizens moving to the UK
0:31:46 > 0:31:48during the Brexit transition period.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51Speaking during a visit to China, Theresa May made it clear
0:31:51 > 0:31:53there was a difference between people arriving before
0:31:53 > 0:31:55and after March 2019, when Britain formally leaves
0:31:55 > 0:31:56the European Union.
0:31:56 > 0:32:02Our correspondent Stephen McDonell is in Beijng.
0:32:02 > 0:32:04issues around Brexit have followed the Prime
0:32:04 > 0:32:09issues around Brexit have followed the Prime Minister on her travels.
0:32:09 > 0:32:15Absolutely. I am standing here outside the Great Hall of the People
0:32:15 > 0:32:19were in the coming hours the Prime Minister will be meeting one of the
0:32:19 > 0:32:27two most powerful people in the world, the president of China, Xi
0:32:27 > 0:32:30Jinping, with a multibillion-dollar trade relationship on the table, yet
0:32:30 > 0:32:35she is talking about Brexit, and the rights of EU citizens in the
0:32:35 > 0:32:39transition period. I think that shows the level of concern that
0:32:39 > 0:32:44Theresa May has over this issue. Back at home, some will see this is
0:32:44 > 0:32:48so getting tough on Europe over this question. Yet we really don't know
0:32:48 > 0:32:54the details. I guess it depends what right you are -- what rights you are
0:32:54 > 0:32:58talking about. Maybe she is using this to sound tougher than she
0:32:58 > 0:33:04really is being, or maybe it's quite significant. I think many will judge
0:33:04 > 0:33:08this when we can see what rights they are. Health rights or Social
0:33:08 > 0:33:21Security. That is all still to come. The International trade Secretary,
0:33:21 > 0:33:28Liam Fox, has told the BBC he wishes Theresa May would see her the way
0:33:28 > 0:33:33she is seen by the rest of the world.Different than some of the
0:33:33 > 0:33:37say internal tearoom discussions and I sometimes wish that first of all
0:33:37 > 0:33:40people consider Prime Minister the way she is seen in other countries
0:33:40 > 0:33:45in terms of the visions she puts forward for Britain and secondly, I
0:33:45 > 0:33:49sometimes wish they could see Britain in the way the rest of the
0:33:49 > 0:33:54world sees us and not some of the internal commentators in the UK.
0:33:54 > 0:33:57The economic gap between the north and south of England will continue
0:33:57 > 0:33:59to grow, unless the government prioritises education and skills.
0:33:59 > 0:34:02That's the warning this morning from the Northern Powerhouse Partnership,
0:34:02 > 0:34:05an independent body set up to try re-balance the economy away
0:34:05 > 0:34:06from the dominance of London.
0:34:06 > 0:34:09It says disadvantaged children are being let down,
0:34:09 > 0:34:12and that a lack of funding and aspiration are holding back
0:34:12 > 0:34:18economic growth in the region.
0:34:18 > 0:34:22The Liberal Democrats have claimed a key government target for treating
0:34:22 > 0:34:26people with severe mental health conditions is not being met. The
0:34:26 > 0:34:29party says it gathered evidence saying people who experienced a
0:34:29 > 0:34:33first episode of psychosis are not getting a quality package. NHS
0:34:33 > 0:34:38England says more than three quarters of patients are seen in two
0:34:38 > 0:34:41weeks and research shows a partial and dated picture of the service
0:34:41 > 0:34:42provided.
0:34:42 > 0:34:45Police in England, Wales and Scotland fired tasers 22 times
0:34:45 > 0:34:48on mental health wards between April and September last year.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50The BBC has obtained figures which showed they were used
0:34:50 > 0:34:53four times against people under the age of 17,
0:34:53 > 0:34:54and once on a 15-year-old.
0:34:54 > 0:34:56Figures were provided by 43 police forces,
0:34:56 > 0:34:58but the Metropolitan Police and the Police Service
0:34:58 > 0:35:03in Northern Ireland did not respond to the request from Radio 5live.
0:35:03 > 0:35:06MPs have voted to move out of the Palace of Westminster,
0:35:06 > 0:35:08while billions of pounds of essential renovation work
0:35:08 > 0:35:10is carried out.
0:35:10 > 0:35:13The move will now need to be given the final go-ahead
0:35:13 > 0:35:14by the House of Lords.
0:35:14 > 0:35:18It would be the first time MPs have moved out of the Commons
0:35:18 > 0:35:21since it was damaged by a bomb in the second world war.
0:35:21 > 0:35:25The head of Ofsted is warning that schools in England are being used
0:35:25 > 0:35:27to 'indoctrinate' pupils under the guise of religious education.
0:35:27 > 0:35:29In a speech today, Amanda Spielman will warn
0:35:29 > 0:35:32that the most conservative voices of particular faith groups do not
0:35:32 > 0:35:36speak for everyone, and schools should not be afraid to call out
0:35:36 > 0:35:38practices they think will negatively impact younger people.
0:35:38 > 0:35:40practices they think will negatively impact younger people.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42Facebook says changes to its newsfeed have led
0:35:42 > 0:35:44to a significant drop in usage.
0:35:44 > 0:35:46People are said to be spending an average
0:35:46 > 0:35:48of a minute-and-a-half less each day on the network.
0:35:48 > 0:35:52The changes - fewer viral videos and more checks on advertising -
0:35:52 > 0:36:00were introduced partly to combat so-called fake news.
0:36:03 > 0:36:11Those are the main stories. It is 6:35am and is part of our bid to get
0:36:11 > 0:36:19everybody standing up more, Luke who we have here.The first day of
0:36:19 > 0:36:22February, I'm going to start something new. Not like the one C
0:36:22 > 0:36:26had earlier.You can stand up to, C.
0:36:26 > 0:36:29It's been a record-breaking January transfer window
0:36:29 > 0:36:31for the Premier League.
0:36:31 > 0:36:34£430 million spent in total as clubs scrambled
0:36:34 > 0:36:35to secure new players.

0:36:49 > 0:36:50on Athletic Bilbao defender Aymeric Laporte.
0:36:50 > 0:36:52Borussia Dortmund's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang cost
0:36:52 > 0:36:54Arsenal £56million - a club record fee for the club.
0:36:54 > 0:36:57Lucas Moura will wear the number 27 shirt
0:36:57 > 0:36:58for Tottenham Hotspur after transferring from
0:36:58 > 0:37:04Paris Saint-Germain for £25 million.
0:37:04 > 0:37:07Twelve years at Arsenal came to an end for Theo Walcott

0:37:19 > 0:37:20for around £18 million.
0:37:20 > 0:37:22Manchester City have extended their lead at the top
0:37:22 > 0:37:27of the Premier League up to 15 points after they thrashed West Brom
0:37:27 > 0:37:293-0 - and nearest rivals Manchester United lost.
0:37:29 > 0:37:32Now watch this closely because if you like pub quizzes
0:37:32 > 0:37:33it could soon be a question.
0:37:33 > 0:37:37Who scored the quickest goal in the Premier League this season?
0:37:37 > 0:37:39Answer Tottenham's Christian Eriksen at Wembley last night.
0:37:39 > 0:37:42For a bonus point it was the third fastest in the history
0:37:42 > 0:37:43of the competition.
0:37:43 > 0:37:46And if that wasn't bad enough for United their defender Phil Jones
0:37:46 > 0:37:54scored Spurs' second to give them a 2-2 win.
0:37:58 > 0:38:03We have to go after a few seconds, it has a big influence on the game
0:38:03 > 0:38:06because then Tottenham can play the way they like to
0:38:06 > 0:38:07because then Tottenham can play the way they like to play, the way they
0:38:07 > 0:38:13are really strong and dangerous. And I think the confidence of my players
0:38:13 > 0:38:21was totally broken with the second look. In the end, against a very
0:38:21 > 0:38:26good team with both goals who are on really good things.
0:38:26 > 0:38:28Bournemouth stunned Chelsea - beating them three-nil

0:38:43 > 0:38:46There were seven matches in total in the Premier League last night.
0:38:46 > 0:38:54The full list of results is on the BBC Sport website.
0:38:55 > 0:38:58Scotland head coach Gregor Townsend has named his first Six Nations

0:39:40 > 0:39:42According to figures from the Jewish charity,

0:39:45 > 0:39:47in 2017 compared to the previous year.
0:39:47 > 0:39:49While attacks on social media have reduced,
0:39:49 > 0:39:53the number of recorded physical and verbal incidents is rising -
0:39:53 > 0:39:56with a third of them taking place across London and Manchester.

0:40:00 > 0:40:08and joins us now.
0:40:09 > 0:40:17Good morning. Thank you. To put this into context, the number of attacks
0:40:17 > 0:40:26or hate crimes in total. Anti-Semitic assaults rose one
0:40:26 > 0:40:30third. Have you been given any explanation or reasoning as to what
0:40:30 > 0:40:36is driving this?
0:40:36 > 0:40:42is driving this?Well, the community Security trust, they seem to be
0:40:42 > 0:40:46quite chilled about the fact there has been this increase in that they
0:40:46 > 0:40:50feel it is a steady increase in sometimes that can be put down to
0:40:50 > 0:40:57better reporting. For example, at the moment, a lot of talk about
0:40:57 > 0:41:01people reporting sexual abuse, historical sexual abuse and that is
0:41:01 > 0:41:08down to people feeling empowered. There was always that caveat that
0:41:08 > 0:41:15people are reporting things more. If you have a look, there is a lot more
0:41:15 > 0:41:21lower-level verbal abuse and what have you then there was. I think you
0:41:21 > 0:41:25will find the serious levels of assaults and so on haven't
0:41:25 > 0:41:34particularly risen. But funnily enough, in this particular area,
0:41:34 > 0:41:41there has been a more significant increase in the rest of the country,
0:41:41 > 0:41:47which is quite warring.Rabbi, can I ask you about your own experience?
0:41:47 > 0:41:51Recently, there has been lower level. I have been assaulted in the
0:41:51 > 0:41:59past physically but lately, it tends to be people going past you in cars,
0:41:59 > 0:42:05shouting abuse, mentioning Hitler and the like.So you are standing in
0:42:05 > 0:42:10the street and that is something that is routinely happening?When I
0:42:10 > 0:42:14say routinely, it doesn't happen every day. It would happen several
0:42:14 > 0:42:21times a year.With the team that worth reporting? Where are those
0:42:21 > 0:42:26that sit? What happens next?I believe one report everything
0:42:26 > 0:42:35however trivial it seems because the police might need a final piece of
0:42:35 > 0:42:39the jigsaw to build-up who is doing these things. I heard the chief
0:42:39 > 0:42:45constable of Greater Manchester on your sister station, radio
0:42:45 > 0:42:50Manchester, and he was talking about anti-social behaviour. He said you
0:42:50 > 0:42:55might think it's insignificant that even if you see someone throwing
0:42:55 > 0:43:04stones, please report it. Reporting is very, very important.What do you
0:43:04 > 0:43:08make of the breakdown of abuse on social media?That is very
0:43:08 > 0:43:16interesting. I'm not the world's greatest expert on social media. I
0:43:16 > 0:43:23wonder whether that is mirrored in the general racism and so on. It may
0:43:23 > 0:43:30well be that there was a peak in people using social media. I think
0:43:30 > 0:43:36interestingly, the publicity, ironically, surrounding the use of
0:43:36 > 0:43:43social media, a lot of people have been prosecuted for anti-Semitism,
0:43:43 > 0:43:47racism, whatever it may be on social media, thinking they would get away
0:43:47 > 0:43:53with it. A lot of people feel they should be a bit more careful so it
0:43:53 > 0:43:59may well be that that is the reason for the drop in that.Thank you very
0:43:59 > 0:44:03much were talking to was this morning.
0:44:03 > 0:44:07We often like to send Carol out to find some green space and fresh
0:44:07 > 0:44:10air with her weather forecast - today she's in a garden
0:44:10 > 0:44:12with a difference in the heart of London.
0:44:12 > 0:44:16That is the exterior view. That is the inside view. Explain where you
0:44:16 > 0:44:21are.
0:44:21 > 0:44:26I'm in the Sky Garden, in the walkie-talkie building in London,
0:44:26 > 0:44:32it's the first of February today so January is a thing of the past.
0:44:32 > 0:44:36There's been lots about it on Twitter about how people are fed up
0:44:36 > 0:44:41and miserable, now spring isn't too far away. The daffodils are out,
0:44:41 > 0:44:47snowdrops soon, if they aren't already here, so hope on the
0:44:47 > 0:44:51horizon. Cold out here, cold outside, I'd like to say the weather
0:44:51 > 0:44:56is frightful, but that's the wrong season. Today we have a cold start
0:44:56 > 0:45:01with the risk of ice and a cold wind. If you're outside even if it's
0:45:01 > 0:45:08sunny it will feel cold in the wind. Starting at 9am in Scotland, we have
0:45:08 > 0:45:11a mixture of rain, sleet and snow coming down in the showers. You
0:45:11 > 0:45:16don't have to move too far inland to see that snow but moving away from
0:45:16 > 0:45:19the north of Scotland through the Central Lowlands and the Southern
0:45:19 > 0:45:24Uplands, back into sunnier skies but cold. For Northern England, all of
0:45:24 > 0:45:28northern England, eastern England, the Midlands, East Anglia and down
0:45:28 > 0:45:33to the south coast, clear skies. Fabulous view of the Moon. But
0:45:33 > 0:45:38further west, clear skies, cold start but a lot of sunshine. Some
0:45:38 > 0:45:42showers around, Gloucestershire for example, parts of Wales, south-west
0:45:42 > 0:45:46England, not immune to the odd shower but for most it's a dry
0:45:46 > 0:45:51start. Northern Ireland, you have the snow showers too. That mixture
0:45:51 > 0:45:55of rain, sleet and snow with most of the snow on the hills. Through the
0:45:55 > 0:45:59day the snow showers continue and as I said, a lot of dry weather around
0:45:59 > 0:46:07and a fair bit of sunshine, a windy day, particularly with exposure in
0:46:07 > 0:46:10the north and west. In the north and north-west of Scotland with exposure
0:46:10 > 0:46:13we could even have severe gales. Temperatures are fairly academic
0:46:13 > 0:46:16because the wind will make it feel colder than the temperatures
0:46:16 > 0:46:16suggest.
0:46:16 > 0:46:18colder than the temperatures suggest. As we head on through the
0:46:18 > 0:46:22evening and overnight, still quite windy, we will still have wintry
0:46:22 > 0:46:26showers around across the north and some in the east and there is once
0:46:26 > 0:46:30again the risk of ice on untreated surfaces. Temperatures you can see
0:46:30 > 0:46:34in the charts indicate towns and cities, in rural areas they're more
0:46:34 > 0:46:38likely to be between -1 and plus one. We start tomorrow with a ridge
0:46:38 > 0:46:45of high pressure upon us which will keep the day fine and settled, a lot
0:46:45 > 0:46:48of sunshine around but in the east we're looking at showers coming in
0:46:48 > 0:46:52from the North Sea coupled with a noticeable wind. A few showers in
0:46:52 > 0:46:56the west but they will be fewer and further between. Not feeling as cold
0:46:56 > 0:47:00because the wind would be as strong for most. Later a weather front from
0:47:00 > 0:47:07the west will bring a mixture of rain, wet snow and some sleet from
0:47:07 > 0:47:11the west at lower levels. Any accumulations will mostly be on
0:47:11 > 0:47:15higher ground. But this is one that's quite a complicated forecast
0:47:15 > 0:47:19on Saturday. Something we're keeping a close eye on because it could
0:47:19 > 0:47:24change. I can tell you the trend as we head into the new week and
0:47:24 > 0:47:28through the west of the weekend -- rest of the weekend is it will
0:47:28 > 0:47:33remain cold, and for some next week more snow on the horizon.Boeing say
0:47:33 > 0:47:37that, Carol! It's the first of February, time for warmth and
0:47:37 > 0:47:42spring, look spring, look forward to spring!-- don't say that. Spring
0:47:42 > 0:47:48isn't too far away, Naga!Carol, I love the way you try to appease my
0:47:48 > 0:47:53desire for heat of a cold! See you soon, thanks very much!
0:47:53 > 0:47:55Customers who don't shop around for gas, electricity or broadband
0:47:55 > 0:47:58could be paying nearly £1,000 a year too much.
0:47:58 > 0:47:59Ben has the details
0:47:59 > 0:48:00Ben has the details
0:48:00 > 0:48:04It's the fact we're a bit lazy when it comes to shopping around and
0:48:04 > 0:48:08because we don't shop around, the firm is low and they make it more
0:48:08 > 0:48:12expensive as a result. This is research from...
0:48:12 > 0:48:15Consumer group Citizens Advice says firms are charging loyal customers
0:48:15 > 0:48:17too much because they're cashing in on our laziness.
0:48:17 > 0:48:19It found that energy, mobile and broadband firms
0:48:19 > 0:48:22were the worst offenders, and only using cheap deals to lure
0:48:22 > 0:48:30in new customers, as Mark from Bedford found out to his cost.
0:48:32 > 0:48:37I took out a mortgage about 15 years ago when we moved here. Along with
0:48:37 > 0:48:40the mortgage, of course you have to ensure the building. They
0:48:40 > 0:48:45recommended a company and, like everyone else, you just go along
0:48:45 > 0:48:50with it and at the time I suspect the charge was appropriate. So it
0:48:50 > 0:48:55wasn't until 15 years later when the mortgage was paid off that I
0:48:55 > 0:49:02realised I had been massively overcharged. The lesson is, keep an
0:49:02 > 0:49:07eye on things, don't just let it ride year after year without making
0:49:07 > 0:49:14sure that you are being charged fairly.
0:49:14 > 0:49:15Matthew Upton is Head
0:49:15 > 0:49:18of Consumer Policy at Citizens Advice.
0:49:18 > 0:49:22How common is Mark's story? We've all been there but this is
0:49:22 > 0:49:26increasingly common.Much too common, Mark is talking about one
0:49:26 > 0:49:31industry but this is something that plays out in the energy market,
0:49:31 > 0:49:35insurance, mobile, broadband, savings. As you said in your
0:49:35 > 0:49:39introduction, you have a whole business model built on... You used
0:49:39 > 0:49:44the word lazy, it could be another person's loyal, in lots of works of
0:49:44 > 0:49:48life loyalty is rewarded and seen as noble but they view as in with the
0:49:48 > 0:49:53deals and put up the price after a couple of years -- lure. It's
0:49:53 > 0:49:57annoying for you and I who have the ability to use shop around and
0:49:57 > 0:50:03switch and ride out the expensive bonds but for others more vulnerable
0:50:03 > 0:50:10it's a problem -- to shop around. The distinction between laziness and
0:50:10 > 0:50:14loyalty, lots of people have said I've always been with the same
0:50:14 > 0:50:16provider, they've always seemed fine, and the firm is taking
0:50:16 > 0:50:21advantage.What I was surprised about when I saw this research is
0:50:21 > 0:50:25there's a whole moral question about whether it is right these businesses
0:50:25 > 0:50:29exploit this loyalty or inertia or laziness, but four in ten people
0:50:29 > 0:50:33didn't know this was happening. They assumed loyalty would be rewarded
0:50:33 > 0:50:36because it is in so many other places and again the people more
0:50:36 > 0:50:40prone to stick around for a long time, older people is a classic
0:50:40 > 0:50:44group, it might be someone who's been with the same gas supplier
0:50:44 > 0:50:47through nationalisation through ten to 20 years, and they think if they
0:50:47 > 0:50:52stick with them they will look after me but sadly it's not the case.We
0:50:52 > 0:50:55talked about the financial implications, a big cost if you
0:50:55 > 0:50:59don't move, and the firms are using the extra money they get to get
0:50:59 > 0:51:03people on cheaper deals and so they are artificially cheap.One argument
0:51:03 > 0:51:07is they are subsidising my deals, I'm sad enough to switch all the
0:51:07 > 0:51:12time, I know where my deals expire so there's an argument that people
0:51:12 > 0:51:16with lower incomes and poorer people and people with mental health
0:51:16 > 0:51:19incomes are subsidising me but there's a separate issue, when you
0:51:19 > 0:51:23have whole markets who rely on exploiting inert loyal consumers,
0:51:23 > 0:51:34the to innovate and the as efficient as possible aren't there -- the
0:51:34 > 0:51:38incentive to innovate.People aren't able to switch more easily. We know
0:51:38 > 0:51:42there have been efforts to make it easier but that isn't happening?
0:51:42 > 0:51:46There have been lots of efforts made to make it easier. It's easier than
0:51:46 > 0:51:50it was but too often you see regulators or government will bring
0:51:50 > 0:51:55in measures to say make companies from us when we get to the end of a
0:51:55 > 0:51:59contract and too many times you see companies be the letter of the law
0:51:59 > 0:52:04but much less the spirit -- prompt us. That's why there's the odd and
0:52:04 > 0:52:07for stronger intervention in the market.If we don't like it we
0:52:07 > 0:52:11should do something about it and we should switch, it's all well and
0:52:11 > 0:52:15good as criticising the firms, they're doing it because they can.
0:52:15 > 0:52:18It's our own fault for not doing something.Anyone who is watching,
0:52:18 > 0:52:24and if you've been on a deal for a year or two you almost always paying
0:52:24 > 0:52:32more, switch after work, not before breakfast, but do what you can.
0:52:32 > 0:52:34breakfast, but do what you can. -- you almost always pay more. You
0:52:34 > 0:52:43can't get by without mobile or broadband or energy. -- you're
0:52:43 > 0:52:47almost always paying more. You get a lot of chances to try to make these
0:52:47 > 0:52:50things easier and energy is a good example where the government have
0:52:50 > 0:52:53stepped in and said listen, too many vulnerable people are paying too
0:52:53 > 0:52:57much, why don't we cap the prices for some of those people and there
0:52:57 > 0:53:00are lessons to learn for other markets.Matthew, thanks for
0:53:00 > 0:53:06explaining that. Matthew Upton. If you don't like it, switch, you're
0:53:06 > 0:53:11more likely to get a cheaper deal elsewhere. More from me after 7am.
0:53:11 > 0:53:13See you then, Ben, thanks.
0:53:13 > 0:53:17Over the last few months stargazers have been lucky enough to see
0:53:17 > 0:53:20supermoons and even a blue moon, that's a second full moon
0:53:20 > 0:53:23in the same calendar month, but last night, in certain parts
0:53:23 > 0:53:26of the world, the skies offered something even more unusual.
0:53:26 > 0:53:29A super blue blood moon is a spectacle that hasn't been seen
0:53:29 > 0:53:32for 152 years.
0:53:32 > 0:53:35It is a combination of a blue moon, a total lunar eclipse,
0:53:35 > 0:53:38and also a super moon all at the same time.
0:53:38 > 0:53:40The eclipse was seen across North America,
0:53:40 > 0:53:41the Pacific Ocean and Asia.
0:53:41 > 0:53:45In the UK we weren't able to see the red hue from the total lunar
0:53:45 > 0:53:49eclipse, but a clear night meant many people got a good view
0:53:49 > 0:53:50of the super moon.
0:53:50 > 0:53:52According to Nasa, the next super blue blood moon
0:53:52 > 0:53:54won't happen until New Year's Eve, 2028.
0:53:54 > 0:53:56Such a rare lunar event captured the imagination
0:53:56 > 0:54:02of astronomers and photographers around the world.
0:54:02 > 0:54:11We've got another ten years!
0:54:43 > 0:54:47It's an opportunity for people to make a direct connection to gravity,
0:54:47 > 0:54:51the solar system and celestial mechanics because they can watch it
0:54:51 > 0:54:55happening before their very eyes. This is once in a lifetime and I
0:54:55 > 0:54:59don't care if it's 3:30am. I worked last night but slipped a
0:54:59 > 0:55:03couple of hours and came back up here.So was it worth it?Totally
0:55:03 > 0:55:08worth it, yeah.
0:55:33 > 0:55:41The images gathered from all around the world. Beautiful.
0:55:41 > 0:55:45Very lucky to have seen those.
0:55:45 > 0:55:48We asked you on social media and the BBC News website to send
0:55:48 > 0:55:51us your photos of the super moon,
0:55:51 > 0:55:53And you responded in your hundreds.
0:55:53 > 0:55:55Let's start in Wales where Sam sent us this picture
0:55:55 > 0:55:58of the super moon illuminating the Severn Bridge.
0:55:58 > 0:56:00The snowy slopes of South Lanarkshire were bathed
0:56:00 > 0:56:03in super moonlight in this photo from Glynn.
0:56:03 > 0:56:08In east London, clear skies and a good lens allowed
0:56:08 > 0:56:11Michael to take this photo of the moon rising behind
0:56:11 > 0:56:14the Thames Cable Car.
0:56:14 > 0:56:24You know what that reminds me of? Eid.Yes! -- E T.
0:56:24 > 0:56:26And the professional photographers
0:56:26 > 0:56:29were out in force too, especially where the full super blue
0:56:29 > 0:56:32blood moon made an appearance, this is from Travis in San Diego.
0:56:32 > 0:56:35That one almost looks like two aliens, one of the pictures in
0:56:35 > 0:56:36films.
0:56:36 > 0:56:38Thank you for all your pictures so far,
0:56:38 > 0:56:41please keep them coming either on social media or you can e-mail us
0:56:41 > 0:56:49at bbcbreakfast@bbc.co.uk.
0:56:49 > 0:56:51You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.
0:56:51 > 0:56:52Still to come this morning:
0:56:52 > 0:56:56First it was darts,
0:56:56 > 0:57:00now Formula 1 bosses have followed suit, saying they wont use grid
0:57:00 > 0:57:01girls this season.
0:57:01 > 1:00:21We'll be talking to a former grid girl who's angry at the F1's
1:00:21 > 1:00:22I'm back in half an hour.
1:00:22 > 1:00:25Now it's back to Charley and Naga.
1:00:27 > 1:00:30Hello - this is Breakfast, with Charlie Stayt and Naga
1:00:30 > 1:00:32Munchetty.
1:00:32 > 1:00:34The number of younger people in England having a stroke
1:00:34 > 1:00:39has risen sharply.
1:00:39 > 1:00:41Obesity, alcohol and smoking are thought
1:00:41 > 1:00:44to be behind the increase - doctors want more of us to be aware
1:00:44 > 1:00:52of the symptoms.
1:00:53 > 1:00:55Good morning - it's Thursday 1 February.
1:00:55 > 1:00:58Also this morning: As the Prime Minister visits China she says
1:00:58 > 1:01:01she will oppose plans from Brussels to give EU migrants full residency

1:01:55 > 1:02:03A lot of dry weather for many of us through today.
1:02:03 > 1:02:07A cold wind exacerbating the field. Snow showers in the north. Dry
1:02:07 > 1:02:12weather and a fair bit of sunshine for much of the UK. More in 15
1:02:12 > 1:02:12minutes.
1:02:12 > 1:02:13Good morning.
1:02:13 > 1:02:14First, our main story.
1:02:14 > 1:02:18The number of over-40s suffering a stroke for the first time has
1:02:18 > 1:02:19risen sharply in the last decade.
1:02:19 > 1:02:21That's according to figures from Public Health England,
1:02:21 > 1:02:24which show 20% of stroke cases now occur in those aged
1:02:24 > 1:02:25between 40 and 59.
1:02:25 > 1:02:27Our health correspondent Catherine Burns reports.
1:02:27 > 1:02:28My dad had a stroke.
1:02:28 > 1:02:30I had a stroke.
1:02:30 > 1:02:31I had a stroke.
1:02:31 > 1:02:35The older you are, the greater the chance of it happening
1:02:35 > 1:02:39to you but the average age of men having a first stroke has fallen
1:02:39 > 1:02:40from 71 to 68.
1:02:40 > 1:02:43For women, it's gone from 75 to 73.
1:02:43 > 1:02:48Adrian Jones was just 53 when he had one.
1:02:48 > 1:02:51When I woke up in the morning, I didn't feel too great straightaway
1:02:51 > 1:02:54and when I twisted and tried to stand up,
1:02:54 > 1:02:55I immediately fell over.
1:02:55 > 1:02:58And I couldn't feel, I had no sensation on my left
1:02:58 > 1:02:59side at all.
1:02:59 > 1:03:02Figures from Public Health England break down at what age people
1:03:02 > 1:03:03had first strokes.
1:03:03 > 1:03:08Almost 60% were 70 or over.
1:03:08 > 1:03:10But it's interesting to see the increase
1:03:10 > 1:03:12in middle-aged people being affected.
1:03:12 > 1:03:14In 2007, about 15% of first-time stroke patients were aged
1:03:14 > 1:03:17between 40 and 59.
1:03:17 > 1:03:23By 2016, it had gone up to 20%.
1:03:23 > 1:03:27We know that obesity is a real national problem and that certainly
1:03:27 > 1:03:29contributes towards stroke.
1:03:29 > 1:03:31Diabetes is a very strong risk factor for stroke.
1:03:31 > 1:03:37And I think that there's issues around lifestyle as well.
1:03:37 > 1:03:40We all lead a much more sedentary life, perhaps,
1:03:40 > 1:03:41than we used to.
1:03:41 > 1:03:44Early treatment can help reduce the risk of disability or death
1:03:44 > 1:03:47so a campaign has been launched to help people recognise
1:03:47 > 1:03:48the symptoms as quickly as possible.
1:03:48 > 1:03:52Face - has it fallen on one side?
1:03:52 > 1:03:5740- to 74-year-olds in England are eligible for for health checks
1:03:57 > 1:03:59to help spot the early signs of various conditions,
1:03:59 > 1:04:00including strokes.
1:04:00 > 1:04:03Catherine Burns, BBC News.
1:04:03 > 1:04:06The Prime Minister has indicated that she will fight EU proposals
1:04:06 > 1:04:09to give residency rights to European citizens moving to the UK
1:04:09 > 1:04:11during the Brexit transition period.
1:04:11 > 1:04:14Speaking during a visit to China, Theresa May made it clear
1:04:14 > 1:04:16there was a difference between people arriving before
1:04:16 > 1:04:20and after March 2019, when Britain formally leaves
1:04:20 > 1:04:26the European Union.
1:04:26 > 1:04:32Our correspondent Iain Watson is in Westminster.
1:04:32 > 1:04:37Good morning. It's interesting. The EU wants there to be some kind of
1:04:37 > 1:04:43leeway or some promise and the Prime Minister is trying to draw lines
1:04:43 > 1:04:48again, offer some clarity.She has been under pressure from the pro-
1:04:48 > 1:04:52Brexit backbenchers to say look, we have to treat people differently
1:04:52 > 1:04:59after Brexit, March 2019 than those who come before. They felt that was
1:04:59 > 1:05:04what was agreed with the European Union last month for month before in
1:05:04 > 1:05:08talks in Brussels to move onto the next stage but what the EU is
1:05:08 > 1:05:13saying, no, we have to discuss this implementation period separately and
1:05:13 > 1:05:17what they are asking for is exactly the same rights to apply to EU
1:05:17 > 1:05:22citizens until a beast December 20 20. Some of her backbenchers were
1:05:22 > 1:05:26unhappy so what she is trying to establish is the principle that
1:05:26 > 1:05:30people will be treated differently after Brexit day but in practice,
1:05:30 > 1:05:36what does that mean? Government sources say it is up for negotiation
1:05:36 > 1:05:41but we know if someone comes during that period, around two years, they
1:05:41 > 1:05:45have the same rights is now apart from the fact that they have to
1:05:45 > 1:05:49register. What happens at the end? It is possible they would be subject
1:05:49 > 1:05:53to the same rules that might apply to anyone else at that stage. With
1:05:53 > 1:05:59work visas, apply for work visas here. Government sources are
1:05:59 > 1:06:05stressing that no one will be thrown out of Britain at the end of the
1:06:05 > 1:06:08period. They think it's more important to establish the principle
1:06:08 > 1:06:10and leave everything up for negotiation. They don't think it
1:06:10 > 1:06:15will be a major EU is sticking point but we will see.Thank you very
1:06:15 > 1:06:15much.
1:06:15 > 1:06:19The economic gap between the north and the south will continue to grow,
1:06:19 > 1:06:20unless the government prioritises Northern education.
1:06:20 > 1:06:23That's the warning this morning from the Northern Powerhouse Partnership,
1:06:23 > 1:06:26an independent body set up to improve the state of the north.
1:06:26 > 1:06:29They say disadvantaged children are being let down,
1:06:29 > 1:06:32and that a lack of funding and aspiration are holding back
1:06:32 > 1:06:32the Northern economy.
1:06:32 > 1:06:40Nina Warhurst reports.
1:06:42 > 1:06:44If your child's born in the north-east, the latest league
1:06:44 > 1:06:48tables suggest there is a one in five chance he or she will go
1:06:48 > 1:06:49to an underperforming school.
1:06:49 > 1:06:54Born in London, the chances are just 1 in 15.
1:06:54 > 1:06:57Today's report says the key to closing the North-South divide
1:06:57 > 1:07:01includes £300 million of new money for early-years development,
1:07:01 > 1:07:03making the North a world leader in apprenticeships,
1:07:03 > 1:07:06and all Northern businesses mentoring young people.
1:07:06 > 1:07:12How are you finding the communications?
1:07:12 > 1:07:14Barclay's is one of the businesses behind today's report.
1:07:14 > 1:07:16They have more than 500 Northern apprentices.
1:07:16 > 1:07:20I think it was an opportunity that I was quite surprised to find that
1:07:20 > 1:07:25I didn't have to move away for, because I think my preconception
1:07:25 > 1:07:29was you would probably have to move to have a really good career
1:07:29 > 1:07:33but now my view has completely changed on that now that I found
1:07:33 > 1:07:36the degree program because you can do it from anywhere.
1:07:36 > 1:07:39Is the government now stepping up after being accused of neglecting
1:07:39 > 1:07:42the Northern Powerhouse post-George Osborne?
1:07:42 > 1:07:45One of the real unsung bits about our Northern Powerhouse
1:07:45 > 1:07:48is the £70 million we put into our Northern Powerhouse schools
1:07:48 > 1:07:54strategy which goes all the way from early-years provision
1:07:54 > 1:07:58and making sure that is as good as it can be, to the maths
1:07:58 > 1:08:00and English hubs we have set up.
1:08:00 > 1:08:03The authors of today's report say if it's followed,
1:08:03 > 1:08:06there could be 850,000 new jobs and £100 billion of new money
1:08:06 > 1:08:07in the Northern economy.
1:08:07 > 1:08:09They claim that children from all backgrounds and postcodes
1:08:09 > 1:08:11will be given a fairer start.
1:08:11 > 1:08:16Nina Warhurst, BBC News, Middlesborough.
1:08:16 > 1:08:19Facebook says changes to its newsfeed have led
1:08:19 > 1:08:27to a significant drop in usage.
1:08:29 > 1:08:34Anyone not on Facebook, and there are millions, the newsfeed speed
1:08:34 > 1:08:38literally a list of things that are happening with the people you are
1:08:38 > 1:08:40connected with and sometimes advertisements pop-up notifications
1:08:40 > 1:08:47of events going on.And it was designed to connect people. Working
1:08:47 > 1:08:52out what your friends and family are doing. There was a lot of criticism
1:08:52 > 1:08:56it got a bit too corporate. To meet adverts and messages from businesses
1:08:56 > 1:09:03try to sell us things. What the boss, Mark Zuckerberg, has said, we
1:09:03 > 1:09:11need to make it more fun again. They have changed the way they do it.
1:09:11 > 1:09:15They got rid of some of the stuff that was cluttering up the newsfeed.
1:09:15 > 1:09:20It means fewer people have used it because they did well out of people
1:09:20 > 1:09:25clicking those viral videos, click and watch, that was great. They said
1:09:25 > 1:09:30it was a double-edged sword. It got people there but they didn't like
1:09:30 > 1:09:36all the other adverts. We are spending less time on it. A 5%
1:09:36 > 1:09:41reduction in how much time we are spending on Facebook. If you add it
1:09:41 > 1:09:45all up, its 50 million hours a day less on Facebook and that is one of
1:09:45 > 1:09:51the big concerns.It's about 1.5 minutes per person. It's not a lot
1:09:51 > 1:09:55in everyday life.It shows as a business white-matter is because
1:09:55 > 1:10:01they make money from us being on the site. The profits still went up, $16
1:10:01 > 1:10:06billion, a staggering amount of money. What they have said is they
1:10:06 > 1:10:13will change the way it is run, less corporate business stuff, and in the
1:10:13 > 1:10:18short-term, it might mean fewer users. In theory.
1:10:18 > 1:10:20For the first time since the Second World War,
1:10:20 > 1:10:23MPs look set to move out of the Palace of Westminster,
1:10:23 > 1:10:25while major renovation work is carried out.
1:10:25 > 1:10:27They voted in favour of the move last night.
1:10:27 > 1:10:30The repair programme will cost billions of pounds.
1:10:30 > 1:10:31Simon Jones reports.
1:10:31 > 1:10:36It may be a palace but one that is in desperate need of repair.
1:10:36 > 1:10:40Anyone who's had building work done on their home will know it can be
1:10:40 > 1:10:45stressful, but MPs are now facing the prospect of moving the several
1:10:45 > 1:10:48years while it is carried out.
1:10:48 > 1:10:51It will cost billions, with both the Commons and the House
1:10:51 > 1:10:54of Lords having to up sticks, most likely to another
1:10:54 > 1:10:55part of Whitehall.
1:10:55 > 1:10:59Many MPs say it's the only option.
1:10:59 > 1:11:02The building's crumbling, it needs rewiring and it's
1:11:02 > 1:11:02just not safe.
1:11:02 > 1:11:05Conditions were even worse than down in the Pit.
1:11:05 > 1:11:07There's some steel props holding the roof up.
1:11:07 > 1:11:13It looks like the workplace I used to work in before I came into this
1:11:13 > 1:11:14building, that was Moltby colliery.
1:11:14 > 1:11:17Other MPs are reluctant to go, arguing the work should be
1:11:17 > 1:11:18done around them.
1:11:18 > 1:11:20There are also concerns about the cost.
1:11:20 > 1:11:22The Lords still have to give their approval
1:11:22 > 1:11:24and with the proposed departure not until 2025,
1:11:24 > 1:11:27that is after the next general election, the next parliament may
1:11:27 > 1:11:28take a different view.
1:11:28 > 1:11:36Simon Jones, BBC News.
1:11:36 > 1:11:39The Liberal Democrats have claimed that a key government target,
1:11:39 > 1:11:42for treating people with severe mental health conditions in England,
1:11:42 > 1:11:43isn't being met.
1:11:43 > 1:11:45The party says it gathered evidence which shows people
1:11:45 > 1:11:47experiencing a first episode of psychosis aren't getting
1:11:47 > 1:11:48a quality care package.
1:11:48 > 1:11:50NHS England says more than three-quarters of patients
1:11:50 > 1:11:55are seen within two weeks - and that the research shows
1:11:55 > 1:11:58a partial and "dated" picture of the services provided.
1:11:58 > 1:12:01Hate crime against Jewish people in the UK is at a record high.
1:12:01 > 1:12:03A new report from the Community Security Trust,
1:12:03 > 1:12:05which monitors anti-semitism, says the Jewsih community
1:12:05 > 1:12:08was targeted at a rate of nearly four-times-a-day last year.
1:12:08 > 1:12:12Online abuse is said to have fallen, but there's been a spike in reports
1:12:12 > 1:12:20of violent assault.
1:12:20 > 1:12:24Those are the main story this morning. All the sport and weather
1:12:24 > 1:12:26coming up shortly.
1:12:26 > 1:12:28Improving schools in the North of England should be
1:12:28 > 1:12:30the new Education Secretary's top priority according
1:12:30 > 1:12:31to a report published today.
1:12:31 > 1:12:33The Northern Powerhouse Partnership claim students
1:12:33 > 1:12:36in the north are now consistently falling behind their southern
1:12:36 > 1:12:38counterparts due to a lack of investment and aspiration.
1:12:38 > 1:12:42Gary Evans is a man who has tackled this problem head on -
1:12:42 > 1:12:43and come out on top.
1:12:43 > 1:12:46and come out on top.
1:12:46 > 1:12:49He's the principal of Halewood Academy in Knowsley near Liverpool.
1:12:49 > 1:12:52Three years ago his school was put into special measures by Ofsted
1:12:52 > 1:12:55inspectors, but they managed to turn things around and last year
1:12:55 > 1:12:56were awarded a good rating.
1:12:56 > 1:13:01We're also joined by Stephanie, a Year 11 pupil at the school.
1:13:01 > 1:13:07Good morning to you. You have an exam today? A maths exam.Are you
1:13:07 > 1:13:13feeling confident?Not really. Thank you the coming in to talk to us.
1:13:13 > 1:13:18I will put you on the spot, Stephanie. The head teacher is
1:13:18 > 1:13:22sitting next to you. What is it that your school has done?It is
1:13:22 > 1:13:28something quite remarkable. There has been a lot of improvements in a
1:13:28 > 1:13:34lot of different areas. Teachers have become more skilful I think in
1:13:34 > 1:13:40how they approach teaching and there are differentiated tasks so that all
1:13:40 > 1:13:45the students are targeted specifically so that we can all
1:13:45 > 1:13:50reach our maximum potential.There is a lot of talk about aspiration.
1:13:50 > 1:13:55They have instilled in students, told you that you can aspire. Is
1:13:55 > 1:14:01that the impression you get?I think that with all the help from the
1:14:01 > 1:14:05school, because the support is there, it's just down to the mindset
1:14:05 > 1:14:10of the individual students because all the teachers will always give up
1:14:10 > 1:14:16as much time as they possibly can to possibly help and give as much
1:14:16 > 1:14:22support and the resources they can as well.Gary, how do you do that?
1:14:22 > 1:14:26It's easy enough to say, you can do anything, you can be anything you
1:14:26 > 1:14:31want but you need to show people, prove there are opportunities out
1:14:31 > 1:14:36there that allow you to go to your dreams.And for students like
1:14:36 > 1:14:41Stephanie, you would think it is easy but it is hard job. When you
1:14:41 > 1:14:48get an OFSTED report like we did, we are proud of it. We make the
1:14:48 > 1:14:55students believe that they can. It's about raising the bar. As soon as
1:14:55 > 1:15:01you raise the expectations of the staff and students. It's given them
1:15:01 > 1:15:10more and more opportunities to make that link.How do you connect the
1:15:10 > 1:15:17outside world to what is happening? It is easy to say, you can do a
1:15:17 > 1:15:21career in this or that. But if you don't see it, or experience it, it
1:15:21 > 1:15:27will never seem real.One of the major pieces of work we have done is
1:15:27 > 1:15:34to link the world of work to school. It's about bringing those businesses
1:15:34 > 1:15:39in.
1:15:40 > 1:15:44in. Careers for seven through to year 11 so it's not just the older
1:15:44 > 1:15:50student. The focus is on careers. And also what they need to do in
1:15:50 > 1:15:55school to get to that career they aspire to.How long have you been at
1:15:55 > 1:16:00the school? 4.5 years. It was in real trouble when you've got the
1:16:00 > 1:16:05hour. Talk is through some practicalities. The same stuff? You
1:16:05 > 1:16:11talk about quality of teaching.
1:16:12 > 1:16:14It has been a turnaround.
1:16:14 > 1:16:18It has been a turnaround.A big turnaround?Half the staff? Around
1:16:18 > 1:16:23half. That's a key element, you came in and said I've got people here who
1:16:23 > 1:16:27aren't delivering. It's recognising the staff, talent
1:16:27 > 1:16:31spotting, and recognise the staff who have the ability to drive
1:16:31 > 1:16:35improvements forward. I'm lucky to have a fantastic senior team, some
1:16:35 > 1:16:39of whom were already in the school and they weren't being used to their
1:16:39 > 1:16:43fullest and it's about bringing the right people in and we've been
1:16:43 > 1:16:46successful recruiting excellent teachers.What about pupils in terms
1:16:46 > 1:16:52of numbers and turnaround?Numbers are going up each year, 150 students
1:16:52 > 1:17:01left Duff last year but 220 arrived in in Year 7 -- left us. We're
1:17:01 > 1:17:04taking more students in. The community recognises the
1:17:04 > 1:17:08improvements we are making at school.Stephany, good luck today
1:17:08 > 1:17:13with your exam and all the rest of it and everyone else, they'll be a
1:17:13 > 1:17:17lot of people taking their mock exams today all across the UK.I
1:17:17 > 1:17:24think a lot of marks have gone before.When you talk to your
1:17:24 > 1:17:28friends, do they say school is better? I think so. You must feel
1:17:28 > 1:17:34quite proud when you hear that? Absolutely. Students in Mosley get
1:17:34 > 1:17:40an actual bashing by many people in terms of the leagues but as a former
1:17:40 > 1:17:43student from Mosley myself, I'm a great believer that everyone has
1:17:43 > 1:17:46aspirations and it's about tapping into those and giving them the
1:17:46 > 1:17:50opportunity to see what they want to do is possible, good quality
1:17:50 > 1:17:53teaching and learning, good leadership in school. Engaging the
1:17:53 > 1:17:57parents has been crucial in what we've been doing and making students
1:17:57 > 1:18:01have those opportunities do have those conversations with employers
1:18:01 > 1:18:05and colleges and universities to show that a pathway for them.Mr
1:18:05 > 1:18:10Evans, I feel like I should say that, Mr Evans and Stefanie, thanks
1:18:10 > 1:18:14very much. The Department of Education says
1:18:14 > 1:18:18standards are rising, it once all pupils to benefit from the
1:18:18 > 1:18:21world-class education the matter where they live. 1.9 million more
1:18:21 > 1:18:26children are in good or outstanding schools and have been since 2010,
1:18:26 > 1:18:30and the social mobility action plan targets the areas that need the most
1:18:30 > 1:18:30support.
1:18:30 > 1:18:32Here's Carol with a look at this morning's weather,
1:18:32 > 1:18:3434 storeys above the City of London.
1:18:34 > 1:18:38Look at the view you are offering us this morning, that is looking
1:18:38 > 1:18:45fantastic. Where are you? It is beautiful, Charlie and Naga,
1:18:45 > 1:18:51I'm in the Sky Garden, 35 floors up on street level from the Walkie
1:18:51 > 1:18:55Talkie building in London. That is the River Thames and Tower Bridge
1:18:55 > 1:19:00and on the horizon you can see Canary Wharf. The sun is starting to
1:19:00 > 1:19:05arrive, the sky has been changing colour, we have seen the moon this
1:19:05 > 1:19:08morning, looking spectacular and it's the first of February, dry
1:19:08 > 1:19:13January is over for many that did it and also spring isn't too far away.
1:19:14 > 1:19:18The days are continuing to get slightly longer, the nights,
1:19:18 > 1:19:22slightly shorter. Hope is certainly on the horizon but it's cold. If
1:19:22 > 1:19:26you're stepping out this morning you will notice it. The forecast for the
1:19:26 > 1:19:31UK as a whole, a cold wind today. There is still wintry showers around
1:19:31 > 1:19:36and the risk of ice on untreated surfaces. If we start the forecast
1:19:36 > 1:19:41at 9am across Scotland, there are snow showers meaning a mixture of
1:19:41 > 1:19:45rain, sleet and snow but you don't have to come to far inland until you
1:19:45 > 1:19:50run into the snow. The showers... Outside of those there a fair bit of
1:19:50 > 1:19:54sunshine around. Across most of England, northern England, through
1:19:54 > 1:19:58the Midlands, eastern England, East Anglia, the London area, clear
1:19:58 > 1:20:02skies, hence the fabulous view of the super moon last night and this
1:20:02 > 1:20:07morning. Cold, the risk of ice again where it's been damp, and as we
1:20:07 > 1:20:11drift to the south-west, here you could catch a few showers and also
1:20:11 > 1:20:14some in Gloucestershire, and through parts of Wales, but they will be the
1:20:14 > 1:20:20exception rather than the rule. For most, dry and sunny start. In
1:20:20 > 1:20:23Northern Ireland, snow showers, rather like Scotland, a mixture of
1:20:23 > 1:20:29rain, sleet and snow with most snow on higher ground. Windy today and
1:20:29 > 1:20:32the wind exacerbates that cold feel. The strongest winds will be with
1:20:32 > 1:20:37exposure in the north and west, as far south as Aberystwyth. With the
1:20:37 > 1:20:40exposure in the north and north-west of Scotland you could even have
1:20:40 > 1:20:44severe gales, not just gale force winds. A cold day in prospect
1:20:44 > 1:20:48however you look at it but there will be a lot of dry weather and a
1:20:48 > 1:20:53fair bit of sunshine. Overnight still windy, still snow showers in
1:20:53 > 1:20:57the north and east. The risk of ice on untreated surfaces once again and
1:20:57 > 1:21:01the temperatures you will see in a jiffy are indicative of towns and
1:21:01 > 1:21:06cities. In rural areas, we're looking at roughly -12 plus one,
1:21:06 > 1:21:11another cold start tomorrow. But high pressure is building over us
1:21:11 > 1:21:16tomorrow -- -1 to plus one. Unsettled, a fair bit of sunshine
1:21:16 > 1:21:19around, the winds will be lighter so feeling better but down the east
1:21:19 > 1:21:24coast, once again showers and it will be windy. A few showers in the
1:21:24 > 1:21:29west but they will tend to be few and far between. Later on in the
1:21:29 > 1:21:33day, a weather front will start to show its hand coming in from the
1:21:33 > 1:21:37west and by the time we get to Saturday it will be coming from the
1:21:37 > 1:21:41west to the east. It's going to bring a mixture of rain, sleet and
1:21:41 > 1:21:44wet snow to lower levels. We'll see some snow start to accumulate with
1:21:44 > 1:21:50height. This particular forecast could change. If you're doing
1:21:50 > 1:21:53anything on Saturday, keep watching and we'll keep you up to date with
1:21:53 > 1:21:59what we know. I can also tell you that as we head working week, the
1:21:59 > 1:22:03trend for cold weather with some of us are seeing more snow is on the
1:22:03 > 1:22:06cards, Naga and Charlie.Thanks, Carol, you know what so delightful
1:22:06 > 1:22:10about this time of year? Forgetting the snow, we don't want to think
1:22:10 > 1:22:14about that, but the first of February, daylight seems to be
1:22:14 > 1:22:18creeping in earlier and the days seem that fraction longer, it perks
1:22:18 > 1:22:23you up.Absolutely right, Naga, that's exactly what's happening and
1:22:23 > 1:22:29as the days... We get up so early so it's always dark for us but as the
1:22:29 > 1:22:33days get lighter, it fills me with hope because I love the summer. It's
1:22:33 > 1:22:36getting ever closer.
1:22:36 > 1:22:40It does feel easier because it is like, maybe dark when you get up,
1:22:40 > 1:22:45but when I get up it is like in the summer and it makes it easier to
1:22:45 > 1:22:51roll out of bed, doesn't it?What time do you get up?3:45am. I don't
1:22:51 > 1:22:57necessarily get up then!For goodness' sake! You are such a
1:22:57 > 1:23:03lightweight!I know, but that's no supplies! That's no shock. You're
1:23:03 > 1:23:09just hard-core Kirkwood! See you later!
1:23:09 > 1:23:15Coe sounds like wrestling name. Hard-core Kirkwood? She uses that,
1:23:15 > 1:23:21you know!
1:23:21 > 1:23:29There's been a report data from more than 100,000 people to conclude
1:23:29 > 1:23:33well-being as a pupil is a great indicator of happiness in later
1:23:33 > 1:23:37life. Tim Muffet has been to a secondary school in Dartford that
1:23:37 > 1:23:43has made weekly health mind lessons a weekly priority.
1:23:43 > 1:23:46The pathway through childhood, adolescence and beyond.Going into
1:23:46 > 1:23:51year 11 there will be a lot of exam stress.Take a step back and think
1:23:51 > 1:23:55about what you're going to do next. It can be paved with challenges,
1:23:55 > 1:24:00exams, friendships, social media, self-esteem.Many people of our age,
1:24:00 > 1:24:04they deal with mental health issues and they're very scared to come out
1:24:04 > 1:24:09with them.Who can tell me what this means?At the Leigh academy in
1:24:09 > 1:24:16Dartford in Kent, the curriculum has been changed to try and help.Can
1:24:16 > 1:24:20you think of all the different types of emotion that maybe you have
1:24:20 > 1:24:24within school or maybe in your home life?Four years ago with 30 other
1:24:24 > 1:24:27schools it introduced a new subject, healthy minds.The students have one
1:24:27 > 1:24:31lesson per week and that's dedicated for one hour when they come to their
1:24:31 > 1:24:34healthy minds lesson, look at things like relationships, resilience,
1:24:34 > 1:24:39things like mental health.I think they're really important in building
1:24:39 > 1:24:43character and helping us develop as children.If you got a problem you
1:24:43 > 1:24:48been taught, like, how to solve it all what to do.It's all good going
1:24:48 > 1:24:52to maths, English, science lessons, they build your brain but I think
1:24:52 > 1:24:58healthy minds build characters.A huge study of mental health,
1:24:58 > 1:25:01well-being and happiness is about to be published.
1:25:01 > 1:25:07It's analysed data from 100,000 people and it shows that schools and
1:25:07 > 1:25:11teachers can have almost as much impact on a trial's happiness as
1:25:11 > 1:25:14they can on their academic performance and that the impact
1:25:14 > 1:25:18lasts a long time.The best predictor of whether an adult will
1:25:18 > 1:25:22be happy is not what qualifications they get from their school but how
1:25:22 > 1:25:27happy they are while they're at school.Some will say, though, that
1:25:27 > 1:25:30good academic qualifications will bring about happiness, will lead to
1:25:30 > 1:25:35a better job and a better life? Happy children learn better so
1:25:35 > 1:25:38there's no conflict between these objectives, their comp entry to each
1:25:38 > 1:25:43other.Don't be aggressive, don't be passive, just be assertive.
1:25:43 > 1:25:47Professor Layard want more schools to follow Leigh academy's example
1:25:47 > 1:25:52and ensure mental health is a key part of the curriculum, even if that
1:25:52 > 1:25:55means less time studying traditional subjects like maths and science,
1:25:55 > 1:26:00which is what happens here. Word the healthy minds curriculum yes perhaps
1:26:00 > 1:26:03takes a lesson away from the core curriculum but it's important
1:26:03 > 1:26:06because it makes the students have a greater well-being, stronger
1:26:06 > 1:26:11relationships.We've seen stronger reduction in bullying and higher
1:26:11 > 1:26:13numbers of older students supporting younger students as they gone
1:26:13 > 1:26:17through the course. Benefits that should last long into
1:26:17 > 1:26:20adult life. Tim Muffet, BBC News.
1:26:20 > 1:26:22You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.
1:26:22 > 1:26:23Still to come this morning:
1:26:23 > 1:26:26We'll meet the man who made his fortune in double
1:26:26 > 1:26:28glazing, but sold his business to pursue his dream
1:26:28 > 1:26:30of becoming a film director.
1:26:30 > 1:26:33Stay tuned to hear about his debut, starring Hollywood stars
1:26:33 > 1:29:59Harvey Keitel and Gabriel Byrne.
1:30:08 > 1:30:10Hello - this is Breakfast with Charlie Stayt
1:30:10 > 1:30:11and Naga Munchetty.
1:30:11 > 1:30:19Here's a summary of today's main stories from BBC News.
1:30:20 > 1:30:23The proportion of people having strokes in their 40s and 50s has
1:30:23 > 1:30:25risen sharply over the last decade.
1:30:25 > 1:30:27That's according to Public Health England,
1:30:27 > 1:30:29which says 20% of stroke cases now occur in those aged
1:30:29 > 1:30:31between 40 and 59.
1:30:31 > 1:30:33Obesity, diabetes and sedentary lifestyles are all thought to be
1:30:33 > 1:30:41factors behind the rise.
1:30:45 > 1:30:47The Prime Minister has indicated that she will fight EU proposals
1:30:47 > 1:30:50to give residency rights to European citizens moving to the UK
1:30:50 > 1:30:52during the Brexit transition period.
1:30:52 > 1:30:55Speaking during a visit to China, Theresa May made it clear
1:30:55 > 1:30:57there was a difference between people arriving before
1:30:57 > 1:30:59and after March 2019, when Britain formally leaves
1:30:59 > 1:31:00the European Union.
1:31:00 > 1:31:08Our correspondent Stephen McDonell is in Beijng.
1:31:08 > 1:31:14Issues around Brexit have followed her?Absolutely. I am standing
1:31:14 > 1:31:18outside the Great Hall of the People in the Chinese capital which is this
1:31:18 > 1:31:21country's parliament and we're waiting for the Prime Minister to
1:31:21 > 1:31:26meet one of the two most powerful people in the world, President Xi
1:31:26 > 1:31:34Jinping... Hundreds of billions of pounds' worth of trade on the table.
1:31:34 > 1:31:40They are not talking about this. We are discussing Brexit. This is an
1:31:40 > 1:31:45indication of the concern that Theresa May has about this issue. To
1:31:45 > 1:31:56be speaking to reporters about the rights. As to whether that is
1:31:56 > 1:32:01something that I suppose the EU and Britain will be continued to argue
1:32:01 > 1:32:05-- be continuing to argue about, this remains to be seen because we
1:32:05 > 1:32:10still don't know the details. Could it be a minor or could it be
1:32:10 > 1:32:14significant? I think this is all going to be fleshed out in the
1:32:14 > 1:32:19coming days.As we look behind you, the bustling streets of Beijing,
1:32:19 > 1:32:23trade talks. That was the big one that Theresa May was hoping to
1:32:23 > 1:32:31concentrate on.Absolutely. She is struggling to focus people's
1:32:31 > 1:32:41attention on this. She raised the issue with reporters. And yet, we
1:32:41 > 1:32:46are having significant talks here about steel overproduction in China,
1:32:46 > 1:32:51the rights of British businesses to get access to markets here in
1:32:51 > 1:32:56Beijing. There are 50 business leaders here are all hoping to cut
1:32:56 > 1:33:05deals with China. The education sector, automobiles, tourism and all
1:33:05 > 1:33:09the flagship British companies which are hoping to make inroads into this
1:33:09 > 1:33:14massive market. More and more talk of Brexit. Many would see this as a
1:33:14 > 1:33:19bit of a distraction for her visit. Thank you very much.
1:33:19 > 1:33:22The economic gap between the North and South of England will continue
1:33:22 > 1:33:25to grow, unless the government prioritises education and skills.
1:33:25 > 1:33:27That's the warning this morning from the Northern Powerhouse Partnership,
1:33:27 > 1:33:30an independent body set up to try rebalance the economy
1:33:30 > 1:33:32away from the dominance of London.
1:33:32 > 1:33:34It says disadvantaged children are being let down,
1:33:34 > 1:33:37and that a lack of funding and aspiration are holding back
1:33:37 > 1:33:43economic growth in the region.
1:33:43 > 1:33:46The Liberal Democrats have claimed a key government target for treating
1:33:46 > 1:33:49people with severe mental health conditions is not being met.
1:33:49 > 1:33:52The party says it gathered evidence saying people who experienced
1:33:52 > 1:33:55a first episode of psychosis are not getting a quality package.
1:33:55 > 1:33:58NHS England says more than three quarters of patients are seen in two
1:33:58 > 1:34:02weeks and research shows a partial and dated picture of the service
1:34:02 > 1:34:10provided.
1:34:10 > 1:34:13MPs have voted to move out of the Palace of Westminster,
1:34:13 > 1:34:15while billions of pounds of essential renovation work
1:34:15 > 1:34:16is carried out.
1:34:16 > 1:34:19The move will now need to be given the final go-ahead
1:34:19 > 1:34:20by the House of Lords.
1:34:20 > 1:34:23It would be the first time MPs have moved out of the Commons
1:34:23 > 1:34:27since it was damaged by a bomb in the second world war.
1:34:27 > 1:34:30Facebook says changes to its newsfeed have led
1:34:30 > 1:34:31to a significant drop in usage.
1:34:31 > 1:34:33People are said to be spending an average
1:34:33 > 1:34:36of a minute-and-a-half less each day on the network.
1:34:36 > 1:34:39The changes - fewer viral videos and more checks on advertising -
1:34:39 > 1:34:46were introduced partly to combat so-called fake news.
1:34:46 > 1:34:55It is 7:34am and it is time to talk sport. Big pounds spent in this
1:34:55 > 1:35:02transfer day. A huge final day with a alone spent
1:35:02 > 1:35:11which was record-breaking in itself. -- £150 million spent.
1:35:11 > 1:35:13It's been a record-breaking January transfer window
1:35:13 > 1:35:14for the Premier League.
1:35:14 > 1:35:16£430 million spent in total as clubs scrambled
1:35:16 > 1:35:18to secure new players.
1:35:18 > 1:35:21Liverpool started the big money moves by signing defender Virgil van
1:35:21 > 1:35:22Dijk from Southampton for 75 million pounds.
1:35:22 > 1:35:25Manchester City splashed out a club record £57 million
1:35:25 > 1:35:31on Athletic Bilbao defender Aymeric Laporte.
1:35:31 > 1:35:35Borussia Dortmund's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang cost
1:35:35 > 1:35:39Arsenal £56million - a club record fee for the club.
1:35:39 > 1:35:47Lucas Moura will wear the number 27 shirt
1:35:55 > 1:35:56for Tottenham Hotspur after transferring from
1:35:56 > 1:35:58Paris Saint-Germain for £25 million.
1:35:58 > 1:36:01Twelve years at Arsenal came to an end for Theo Walcott
1:36:01 > 1:36:03after being lured across to Sam Allardyce's Everton
1:36:03 > 1:36:04squad for £20million.
1:36:04 > 1:36:07And Olivier Giroud says he's proud to be on his way
1:36:07 > 1:36:09to Stamford Bridge after leaving Arsenal for Chelsea
1:36:09 > 1:36:10for around £18 million.
1:36:10 > 1:36:12Manchester City have extended their lead at the top
1:36:12 > 1:36:16of the Premier League up to 15 points after they thrashed West Brom
1:36:16 > 1:36:183-0 - and nearest rivals Manchester United lost.
1:36:18 > 1:36:21Now watch this closely because if you like pub quizzes
1:36:21 > 1:36:22it could soon be a question.
1:36:22 > 1:36:25Who scored the quickest goal in the Premier League this season?
1:36:25 > 1:36:27Bournemouth stunned Chelsea - beating them three-nil

1:38:03 > 1:38:09What do you make of this decision? To be quite honest, I'm surprised
1:38:09 > 1:38:15that it went as far as it has? They said they were going to be deciding
1:38:15 > 1:38:19it but I didn't think that would be the outcome. I'm surprised that F1
1:38:19 > 1:38:25have vowed so quickly to a small minority of people who don't know
1:38:25 > 1:38:30what the job involves.Tell us. The majority of people see women walking
1:38:30 > 1:38:40up and down as almost ornament to the sport.Definitely not. That is a
1:38:40 > 1:38:46myth. Yes, we walk but we do have a purse --a purpose. F1 will still
1:38:46 > 1:38:51have to fill the role, have somebody on the driver 's slot, for the
1:38:51 > 1:38:57driver to come up to, for the VIP guests coming on to pit lane, coming
1:38:57 > 1:39:05onto the track. That job will have a role. Why not have boy, one girl?
1:39:05 > 1:39:10Why just not rename them? Don't make them grid girls, make them team
1:39:10 > 1:39:15members. It's that simple. We are not scantily dressed. The days of
1:39:15 > 1:39:22wearing hot pants and lycra catsuit is has evolved and it's just a
1:39:22 > 1:39:26natural progression with modern society which I think is great.
1:39:26 > 1:39:32Things I would have worn 15 years ago, I wouldn't wear an hour. It a
1:39:32 > 1:39:36natural progression. I don't see why it should go from evolved to
1:39:36 > 1:39:43extinct.Give me some insight. You made a fair point. One boy, one
1:39:43 > 1:39:49girl, one man, one woman.Has that ever been mooted? I have seen it at
1:39:49 > 1:39:55the touring cars and the fans loved it and for the teams themselves, it
1:39:55 > 1:40:01was one of the biggest PR stunts, to have to grid boys. I've lost count
1:40:01 > 1:40:06of the amount of times that a photographer asks me, can you step
1:40:06 > 1:40:12to the side as he wants to get a picture of an alloy, a wheel trim,
1:40:12 > 1:40:20an exhaust. They usually have to queue the quite some time to get
1:40:20 > 1:40:26their signature. A grid girl would know the race, and can talk about
1:40:26 > 1:40:36cars. Asks them what they enjoy about racing, nothing makes me proud
1:40:36 > 1:40:43when a young girl says, I want to be an engineer or a racing driver.Why
1:40:43 > 1:40:49is there this impression that grid girls are ornamental. --? It's not
1:40:49 > 1:40:53as if the coverage has emphasised the role you say you are playing in
1:40:53 > 1:40:57terms of relations with the fans and also a job of actually organising
1:40:57 > 1:41:06issues on the grid.I mean, some teams now actually ask the girls to
1:41:06 > 1:41:10help design the uniforms. I don't think you could tell me any other
1:41:10 > 1:41:16jobs weathered boss comes in and says, how would you like your
1:41:16 > 1:41:21uniform this year? We have control. We are freelance. We can turn jobs
1:41:21 > 1:41:28down if we don't like the location or other things. We are very much in
1:41:28 > 1:41:33control of things. A lot of teams nowadays, they would like the grid
1:41:33 > 1:41:37girls to have a good social media following which is another part of
1:41:37 > 1:41:42the job so again, we are a connection for the fans with the
1:41:42 > 1:41:48teams. When you are paying so much for a ticket to a sporting event, we
1:41:48 > 1:41:52are like the NFL which is on this Friday, which is my favourite sport.
1:41:52 > 1:41:57I used to be a cheerleader. Again, nothing is more important than the
1:41:57 > 1:42:05sport itself. What's wrong with celebrating those podium wins? I
1:42:05 > 1:42:09have been to race events where the rhino spectators and it's great, the
1:42:09 > 1:42:18guys have trained for years. -- where there are no spectators.We
1:42:18 > 1:42:24are going to get the other side of the argument. Stacey is with us was
1:42:24 > 1:42:30a boxer. The good girls in Formula 1, in boxing, what is the official
1:42:30 > 1:42:40name? Ring card girls. In between the rounds, that is happening. What
1:42:40 > 1:42:45is your sentiment about that?It doesn't happen in my fights because
1:42:45 > 1:42:50I have children as mascots. It's been a positive experience for the
1:42:50 > 1:42:56children involved. Usually for the kids into boxing, it's turned out to
1:42:56 > 1:43:01be inspiring to them, aspiring to their own dreams and ambitions.The
1:43:01 > 1:43:06raft female boxing bouts where they do have that?What is happening
1:43:06 > 1:43:14there? I have nothing against it. Carolyn spoke really well. I have a
1:43:14 > 1:43:20different perspective because I am a female trying to learn except an
1:43:20 > 1:43:25acceptance -- respect. I don't feel it's the most positive
1:43:25 > 1:43:29representation of women in sport. It's probably hard to relate to if
1:43:29 > 1:43:35you are not in that position. You don't have BBC greeter goals at the
1:43:35 > 1:43:39door, you might feel different if you did. A lot of people have asked
1:43:39 > 1:43:46me, how do you feel about supporting putting people out of work? I don't
1:43:46 > 1:43:53support that. The walk on girls have been an integral part of the
1:43:53 > 1:43:57community. Why not give them a role where they can use their skills? It
1:43:57 > 1:44:03does seem they are therefore what they look like.The comparison you
1:44:03 > 1:44:09make, me coming into work, nobody is here watching physically. Formula 1,
1:44:09 > 1:44:14boxing, darts, there is a big audience. You do have a bigger
1:44:14 > 1:44:20audience. But the atmosphere from the spectators, that is part of the
1:44:20 > 1:44:25game.
1:44:25 > 1:44:30game.We out, we have children as mascots. If we were to replace the
1:44:30 > 1:44:39child mascots with walk on girls in whatever they are wearing, it would
1:44:39 > 1:44:44seem odd and that's because we have known it to be the other way. People
1:44:44 > 1:44:48have been used to seeing Ring card girls and we have brought children
1:44:48 > 1:44:57in. It's never a straight linear line. It is rocky and treacherous.
1:44:57 > 1:45:03Obviously Carolyn feels this is a step backward. I feel it is a step
1:45:03 > 1:45:08forward. We will look back at those sexist and racist and homophobic
1:45:08 > 1:45:15adverts from times before and say, I can't believe they got away with it.
1:45:15 > 1:45:20During, and if other female boxers do it, they sit on their skills in
1:45:20 > 1:45:26between the rounds, have you had this conversation? Seeing a girl
1:45:26 > 1:45:30parading round?
1:45:30 > 1:45:36, is that feel to them?I can't speak on behalf of them -- how must
1:45:36 > 1:45:42that feel to them? It bothers me. When I talk about these things, for
1:45:42 > 1:45:45anyone watching, especially young girls, they're not watching someone
1:45:45 > 1:45:49here who wants to put someone out of a job all be bitter, or be mean to
1:45:49 > 1:46:02other people, I genuinely believe that this isn't the most
1:46:05 > 1:46:07that this isn't the most accurate representation of women in the
1:46:07 > 1:46:16sport.Thanks very much. -- or be bitter. Caroline Mooney, a former
1:46:16 > 1:46:21grid girl from Formula 1.
1:46:21 > 1:46:25Let's get some gorgeous views outside with Carol. Good morning.
1:46:25 > 1:46:32Good morning, all. I'm in the beautiful rooftop gardens in London,
1:46:32 > 1:46:38it is the Sky Garden, 35 floors above St level in the Walkie-Talkie
1:46:38 > 1:46:43building, look at these views across London, it's beautiful but cold.
1:46:43 > 1:46:46Cold wherever you are in the UK.
1:46:46 > 1:46:51The forecast was just that, a bitterly cold wind and this morning
1:46:51 > 1:46:54the risk of ice on untreated surfaces. If we start the forecast
1:46:54 > 1:47:00at 9am in Scotland, we have some snow showers, a combination of rain,
1:47:00 > 1:47:05sleet and snow. Most of the snow will be on higher ground and we will
1:47:05 > 1:47:08see some at times on low levels, outside the showers there will be
1:47:08 > 1:47:12sunshine but still cold. Further south across northern England, again
1:47:12 > 1:47:16a cold start but some and exactly the same down the east of England,
1:47:16 > 1:47:20through the Midlands and into East Anglia, the London area, here we had
1:47:20 > 1:47:26clear skies by night, fabulous views of the Moon and then as we drift to
1:47:26 > 1:47:30the south-west, a lot of dry weather, some clear skies, a cold
1:47:30 > 1:47:33start, but some showers around in Gloucestershire and a few in the
1:47:33 > 1:47:38south-west and Wales. But there the exception rather than the rule for
1:47:38 > 1:47:43most, a dry start for the rest. For Northern Ireland, snow showers, the
1:47:43 > 1:47:47combination of rain, sleet and snow but outside the showers, bright and
1:47:47 > 1:47:51sunny skies. A windy day wherever you are, the strongest winds
1:47:51 > 1:47:55touching gale force wind exposure across the north and west of the
1:47:55 > 1:47:59country. Probably as far south as Aberystwyth but in the north and
1:47:59 > 1:48:03north-west of Scotland with exposure, we're not just looking at
1:48:03 > 1:48:07tables but severe gales as well. Temperature wise, fairly academic,
1:48:07 > 1:48:11because when you add on the wind it feels cold, I'm sure we've seen
1:48:11 > 1:48:14polar bears on the streets this morning! Through the evening and
1:48:14 > 1:48:18overnight we're still going to have that wind and we're also looking at
1:48:18 > 1:48:23snow showers across the north of the country and some in the east, the
1:48:23 > 1:48:27risk of ice on untreated surfaces and the temperatures, the figures on
1:48:27 > 1:48:33the chance our towns and cities but in the countryside, -1 to plus one.
1:48:33 > 1:48:36A cold start tomorrow but high pressure building, things will
1:48:36 > 1:48:41settle down, a lot of sunshine around. Still showers down the east
1:48:41 > 1:48:45coast with a keen wind and a few showers in the west but they will be
1:48:45 > 1:48:48fewer and further between. Because the wind will be most of the
1:48:48 > 1:48:53country, not feeling as feeling as bitter as today. Later in the day we
1:48:53 > 1:48:57have a new weather front coming in from the west. On Saturday that will
1:48:57 > 1:49:00bring in a mixture of rain, rain, sleet and wet snow to low levels
1:49:00 > 1:49:05with accumulating snow on higher ground but this forecast could
1:49:05 > 1:49:09change with Saturday being really complicated. If you're outdoors,
1:49:09 > 1:49:12keep watching the weather forecast and we'll keep you up to date with
1:49:12 > 1:49:19what's happening.It's breezy where you are, Carol, isn't it?Breezy is
1:49:19 > 1:49:24an understatement, it's freezing!Go in and get yourself a tea!I've got
1:49:24 > 1:49:34four layers on.Five is the minimum! See you soon, grab a tea!
1:49:34 > 1:49:37Tougher new rules for online gambling have just been announced.
1:49:37 > 1:49:38Ben's looking at the details
1:49:38 > 1:49:41They've looked at some of the promotions and the way the firms
1:49:41 > 1:49:45encourage people to gamble, saying you need to be there, we will allow
1:49:45 > 1:49:49you to do it and it's an important industry but they need to be clear
1:49:49 > 1:49:52on the rules of how it works.
1:49:52 > 1:49:55It's an industry worth £4bn a year, and this morning, the regulator says
1:49:55 > 1:49:57firms must be fairer to players.
1:49:57 > 1:50:00At the moment, players can be forced to keep playing before they're able
1:50:00 > 1:50:03to take out their winnings, that could mean they actually lose
1:50:03 > 1:50:06those winnings in the process.
1:50:06 > 1:50:11George Lusty is from the CMA.
1:50:11 > 1:50:15George, very good morning. First of all can you explain what these
1:50:15 > 1:50:18promotions are and why you don't like the way that they're currently
1:50:18 > 1:50:24run?We're talking about the online part of the market. It's the casino
1:50:24 > 1:50:28type games like slots and roulette and the typical promotion you will
1:50:28 > 1:50:32see it involves you putting down some of your own money, a £10 bet,
1:50:32 > 1:50:37you then get free money added to that, say another £10, and that
1:50:37 > 1:50:42sounds great but we found the types of offer that we've seen require you
1:50:42 > 1:50:46to keep on playing before you can get any money out so with that
1:50:46 > 1:50:50initial £20 pot you might have to play that through 40 times, that's a
1:50:50 > 1:50:54camera pounds of gambling, before you can get any money out.
1:50:54 > 1:50:57Essentially you're saying people could win some money but then
1:50:57 > 1:51:02they're forced to play it at the risk of losing the money just to get
1:51:02 > 1:51:02it out?
1:51:02 > 1:51:05risk of losing the money just to get it out?-- £800. We found there are
1:51:05 > 1:51:10often other traps along the way, for example if you placed a bet greater
1:51:10 > 1:51:14than £10 in any one of the bets along that journey you might find
1:51:14 > 1:51:18you violated one of the rules of the deal and the money is paid out in
1:51:18 > 1:51:23the end.Three operators have signed up to these new rules already,
1:51:23 > 1:51:28Ladbrokes, William Hill and PT Entertainment. Why only three?We
1:51:28 > 1:51:32are pleased to have announced these important changes to consumers
1:51:32 > 1:51:37today. We took a lead group of cases which we think will set an important
1:51:37 > 1:51:41benchmark for the rest of the sector but the Gambling Commission, which
1:51:41 > 1:51:44regulates the sector, has been working closely with us and they
1:51:44 > 1:51:48agree with our findings and they've made it clear they expect every
1:51:48 > 1:51:52licensed gambling firm that operates in the UK to make the same changes
1:51:52 > 1:51:56if they're running deals of this type.It's a tough time to be a
1:51:56 > 1:52:00gambling firm right now, isn't it crazy there is this concern about
1:52:00 > 1:52:03fixed odds betting terminals and limits potentially on how much they
1:52:03 > 1:52:09can charge each time. These new rules on online gambling. A lot of
1:52:09 > 1:52:13the big firms say it's difficult for them to do business now?We want to
1:52:13 > 1:52:17see markets work well not just for consumers but business as well and
1:52:17 > 1:52:20we think markets work best when consumers can have trust and
1:52:20 > 1:52:24confidence in their gambling activity. We know about a third of
1:52:24 > 1:52:29people think that gambling currently is fair and can be trusted and we
1:52:29 > 1:52:33think gambling firms really need to up their game is there to win over
1:52:33 > 1:52:39the trust of their consumers.Good to talk to you, George, George
1:52:39 > 1:52:44lusty, project director.
1:52:44 > 1:52:48I wish that you could see what we see behind the camera, our next
1:52:48 > 1:52:53guest has arrived and he is sniffing behind the camera.There's a lot to
1:52:53 > 1:53:01sniff around there!6 million pets in the UK regularly eat unhealthy
1:53:01 > 1:53:07treats that PDSA animal charities say bad diet and lack of exercise is
1:53:07 > 1:53:11promoting an obesity crisis.
1:53:11 > 1:53:13Joining us now is doctor Alex German,
1:53:13 > 1:53:16he's written a letter to his fellow vets urging them to do more
1:53:16 > 1:53:17to tackle the problem.
1:53:17 > 1:53:20And Lee Piercey with his dog Billy, who's got overweight
1:53:20 > 1:53:28since developing a habit for cheese and toast.
1:53:29 > 1:53:34Why is he little bit overweight? Every meal we have the gives you
1:53:34 > 1:53:39those eyes and he wants a bit. It's got out of hand.The phrase gotten
1:53:39 > 1:53:43out of hand is one that's appropriate because Alex, this is a
1:53:43 > 1:53:48problem where it's difficult for owners who love their pets, because
1:53:48 > 1:53:53you love Billy, don't you?I do. But sometimes love is damaging.It's a
1:53:53 > 1:53:59major worry and that's the reason I've written the letter. One of the
1:53:59 > 1:54:03main ways we show our love to our pets is through food and that can be
1:54:03 > 1:54:09quite harmful. Dearly loved cheese, but just ten grounds, a little cube,
1:54:09 > 1:54:15could be up to 10% of his daily intake -- ten g. That's often on top
1:54:15 > 1:54:19of everything else they're getting. Those little differences can soon
1:54:19 > 1:54:24pile on, just like for us.It's quite hard to see because he is in
1:54:24 > 1:54:31your lap, it's hard to tell how fat he looks.Physically... Don't fat
1:54:31 > 1:54:35shame the dog, Charlie!I'm only using that word because he can't
1:54:35 > 1:54:40understand. Physically what can he do? Can he walk, can he run, what
1:54:40 > 1:54:45can he do?He can do anything like a normal dog but it's taken his toll,
1:54:45 > 1:54:51if he's walking he will tire out. What can he do, can he walk around
1:54:51 > 1:54:55the garden, what's he capable of?He can do what most dogs do but if you
1:54:55 > 1:54:59go for a decent walk he will stop and start because it's taking its
1:54:59 > 1:55:03toll on him.There will be people here, and you must know this, who
1:55:03 > 1:55:07said what are you doing? I know you're doing the right thing now but
1:55:07 > 1:55:11what were you thinking when you were feeding him and you could presumably
1:55:11 > 1:55:17see that he's getting uncomfortable? He just got away with it, you know?
1:55:17 > 1:55:21You keep giving and giving and you think he'll be all right but now
1:55:21 > 1:55:24obviously I've recognised there is a serious problem with his health.
1:55:24 > 1:55:30Where do you think the gap in knowledge came? You feed a dog a
1:55:30 > 1:55:33tiny piece of cheese and actually that's the equivalent to loads more
1:55:33 > 1:55:38than it would be for us. Do owners see animals and treat them in terms
1:55:38 > 1:55:42of food in the same way as we smack? I would have thought so but
1:55:42 > 1:55:49obviously I was uneducated as to how much you should give him.-- snack.
1:55:49 > 1:55:54It soon adds up. We run a specialist weight clinic at the university blue
1:55:54 > 1:55:59and we see these problems all the time. My first patient was my own
1:55:59 > 1:56:04pet, Clarence. It happens very slowly and very gradually.Tell us
1:56:04 > 1:56:09about Clarence.It was 12 years ago when we started but he was one of
1:56:09 > 1:56:13three, and we weren't policing what each of our cats was getting and
1:56:13 > 1:56:17overtime Clarence was maybe being a bit more generous with his own
1:56:17 > 1:56:22portions. If that happens to vets and UC vets out there who have
1:56:22 > 1:56:27overweight pets... We shouldn't be shaming people -- you see. Well
1:56:27 > 1:56:30done, Billy, he's taken the first step to making a difference, we
1:56:30 > 1:56:35should say that.Is the golden rule don't feed your pet the thing they
1:56:35 > 1:56:40are seeing you eat?Give them their food. There's three main things,
1:56:40 > 1:56:44make sure whatever you give them is complete and balanced. Limit the
1:56:44 > 1:56:49extras. Make sure it is safe. And make sure you're not feeding too
1:56:49 > 1:56:54much. The best way for standard food is to weigh it out on scales,
1:56:54 > 1:56:58measure it, if you have to give treats then take them into account
1:56:58 > 1:57:02and we can use things like a little puzzle where you can put food in
1:57:02 > 1:57:07their and they love playing with that and they get enjoyment, more
1:57:07 > 1:57:13enjoyment, out of this.You will be back just before 9am, we will talk
1:57:13 > 1:57:17again, an ideal opportunity for the viewers at home. Thanks, Billy, go
1:57:17 > 1:57:23and have a well earned rest.No cheese! What is his favourite
1:57:23 > 1:57:31cheese?Cathedral City believe it or not. Other brands are available!
1:57:31 > 1:57:35Sending your pictures of your pets and your stories and tell us about
1:57:35 > 2:00:56how you have battled a pet that enjoys their food
2:00:56 > 2:00:57I'm back in half an hour.
2:00:57 > 2:00:59Now it's back to Charley and Naga.
2:01:02 > 2:01:05Hello, this is Breakfast, with Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty.
2:01:05 > 2:01:07Doctors say they're worried about the proportion of people
2:01:07 > 2:01:09in their forties and fifties having a stroke.
2:01:09 > 2:01:12Lifestyle issues are being blamed - they want us all to be better
2:01:12 > 2:01:20at spotting the symptoms.
2:01:26 > 2:01:28Good morning.
2:01:28 > 2:01:29It's Thursday, 1st February.
2:01:29 > 2:01:30Also this morning...
2:01:30 > 2:01:33As the Prime Minister visits China, she says she will oppose plans
2:01:33 > 2:01:38from Brussels to give EU migrants full residency rights after Brexit.
2:01:38 > 2:01:42Calls to do more to close the education gap between the North
2:01:42 > 2:01:47and South in England - or face economic consequences.
2:01:47 > 2:01:50We're spending less time on Facebook and the number of new users has
2:01:50 > 2:01:55slowed for the first time - but it still made $16bn in profit.
2:01:55 > 2:01:59So what next for the social network - and how we use it?
2:01:59 > 2:02:01Good morning.
2:02:01 > 2:02:06In sport, a record spend on transfer deadline day.
2:02:06 > 2:02:08Premier League clubs paid out £150 million,
2:02:08 > 2:02:14with Arsenal splashing out the most on their man Aubameyang.
2:02:14 > 2:02:23Carol is in the City with some gorgeous views this morning.Yes,
2:02:23 > 2:02:27you're right. I'm in the sky garden on the top of the walkie-talkie
2:02:27 > 2:02:30building. Look at the view, the Shard over there, the sun is
2:02:30 > 2:02:37shining, but it's cold. For all of us today, there is a cold wind, snow
2:02:37 > 2:02:41showers in the north, but a lot of dry and sunny weather.
2:02:41 > 2:02:43Good morning.
2:02:43 > 2:02:44First, our main story.
2:02:44 > 2:02:48The proportion of people having strokes in their
2:02:48 > 2:02:50forties and fifties has risen sharply over the last decade.
2:02:50 > 2:02:52That's according to figures from Public Health England,
2:02:52 > 2:02:55which show 20% of stroke cases now occur in those aged
2:02:55 > 2:02:56between 40 and 59.
2:02:56 > 2:02:57Our Health Correspondent Catherine Burns reports.
2:02:57 > 2:02:59My dad had a stroke.
2:02:59 > 2:03:00I had a stroke.
2:03:00 > 2:03:03I had a stroke.
2:03:03 > 2:03:07The older you are, the greater your chance of it happening
2:03:07 > 2:03:11to you, but the average age of men having a first stroke has fallen
2:03:11 > 2:03:12from 71 to 68.
2:03:12 > 2:03:15For women, it's gone from 75 to 73.
2:03:15 > 2:03:22Adrian Jones was just 53 when he had one.
2:03:22 > 2:03:25When I woke up in the morning, I didn't feel too great straight away
2:03:25 > 2:03:27and when I twisted and tried to stand up,
2:03:27 > 2:03:28I immediately fell over.
2:03:28 > 2:03:32And I couldn't feel, I had no sensation on my left
2:03:32 > 2:03:32side at all.
2:03:32 > 2:03:35Figures from Public Health England break down at what age people
2:03:35 > 2:03:36had first strokes.
2:03:36 > 2:03:38Almost 60% were 70 or over.
2:03:38 > 2:03:40But it's interesting to see the increase
2:03:40 > 2:03:44in middle-aged people being affected.
2:03:44 > 2:03:48In 2007, about 15% of first-time stroke patients were aged
2:03:48 > 2:03:49between 40 and 59.
2:03:49 > 2:03:54By 2016, it had gone up to 20%.
2:03:54 > 2:03:57We know that obesity is a real national problem and that certainly
2:03:57 > 2:04:00contributes towards stroke.
2:04:00 > 2:04:05Diabetes is a very strong risk factor for stroke.
2:04:05 > 2:04:07And I think that there's issues around lifestyle as well.
2:04:07 > 2:04:09We all lead a much more sedentary life, perhaps,
2:04:09 > 2:04:14than we used to.
2:04:14 > 2:04:17Early treatment can help reduce the risk of disability or death,
2:04:17 > 2:04:19so a campaign has been launched to help people recognise
2:04:19 > 2:04:21the symptoms as quickly as possible.
2:04:21 > 2:04:24Face - has it fallen on one side?
2:04:24 > 2:04:2740- to 74-year-olds in England are eligible for health checks
2:04:27 > 2:04:30to help spot the early signs of various conditions,
2:04:30 > 2:04:34including strokes.
2:04:34 > 2:04:40Catherine Burns, BBC News.
2:04:40 > 2:04:43The Prime Minister has indicated that she will fight EU proposals to
2:04:43 > 2:04:47give residency rights to European citizens moving to the UK during the
2:04:47 > 2:04:50Brexit transition period. During a visit to China, Theresa May made it
2:04:50 > 2:04:52clear that there was a difference between people arriving before and
2:04:52 > 2:04:57after
2:04:57 > 2:05:01after March 2019, when Britain leaves the European Union. Our
2:05:01 > 2:05:05correspondent is in Westminster. So it comes down to that basic
2:05:05 > 2:05:09question, which is, what will be different after March of 2019?That
2:05:09 > 2:05:14is the question that many of Theresa May's own pro-Brexit backbenchers
2:05:14 > 2:05:18are asking her. They want a guarantee that Brexit will feel and
2:05:18 > 2:05:23look different. They felt they had agreed that EU citizens' rights and
2:05:23 > 2:05:28the extended until Brexit day in March 2019, but now the EU are
2:05:28 > 2:05:31saying they want those rights extended until the end of any
2:05:31 > 2:05:35transition period up to a further two years, certainly until the end
2:05:35 > 2:05:38of December 2020. So some MPs were not happy about it and Theresa May
2:05:38 > 2:05:41is now trying to establish the principle that there will be
2:05:41 > 2:05:44different treatment for people who come here after Brexit. In practice,
2:05:44 > 2:05:48during any transition period, it will not mean a great deal of
2:05:48 > 2:05:51difference. They will simply have to register when they come here. But if
2:05:51 > 2:05:56they want to stay on beyond that transition period, the new rules may
2:05:56 > 2:06:03apply. They may have to apply for work visas. That is her position.
2:06:03 > 2:06:06Government sources are stressing that they don't want to throw anyone
2:06:06 > 2:06:11out, they don't see it as a sticking point. The EU may disagree. And the
2:06:11 > 2:06:14pro-EU pressure group open Britain is saying the effect of this could
2:06:14 > 2:06:17be to send a signal to EU migrants that they are unwelcome and that
2:06:17 > 2:06:20could adversely affect the economy.
2:06:20 > 2:06:24Ahead of the Prime Minsiter's meeting with the Chinese President
2:06:24 > 2:06:26today, the International Trade Secretary, Liam Fox,
2:06:26 > 2:06:29told the BBC he wished Conservative MPs would see Mrs May as she's
2:06:29 > 2:06:37viewed by the rest of the world.
2:06:46 > 2:06:49They view the prime minister in a different way than some of the,
2:06:49 > 2:06:50say, internal tearoom discussions
2:06:50 > 2:06:54and I sometimes wish that first of all
2:06:54 > 2:06:56people would consider the Prime Minister the way
2:06:56 > 2:06:58she is seen in other countries in terms of
2:06:58 > 2:06:59the visions she puts
2:06:59 > 2:07:02forward for Britain and secondly, I sometimes wish they could see
2:07:02 > 2:07:05Britain in the way the rest of the world sees us and not some
2:07:05 > 2:07:07of the internal commentators in the UK.
2:07:07 > 2:07:09The economic gap between the north and south of Britain will continue
2:07:09 > 2:07:11to grow unless the government prioritises education and skills.
2:07:11 > 2:07:13That is the one thing from the northern powerhouse partnership, an
2:07:13 > 2:07:15independent body set up to rebalance the economy away from the dominance
2:07:15 > 2:07:19of London. It says disadvantaged children are being let down and that
2:07:19 > 2:07:22a lack of funding and aspiration are holding back economic growth in the
2:07:22 > 2:07:23region.
2:07:23 > 2:07:28If your child's born in the north-east, the latest league
2:07:28 > 2:07:31tables suggest there is a one in five chance he or she will go
2:07:31 > 2:07:32to an underperforming school.
2:07:32 > 2:07:37Born in London, the chances are just 1 in 15.
2:07:37 > 2:07:43Today's report says the key to closing the North-South divide
2:07:43 > 2:07:46includes £300 million of new money for early-years development,
2:07:46 > 2:07:49making the North a world leader in apprenticeships,
2:07:49 > 2:07:53and all northern businesses mentoring young people.
2:07:53 > 2:07:57How are you finding the communications?
2:07:57 > 2:08:00Barclays is one of the businesses behind today's report.
2:08:00 > 2:08:03They have more than 500 northern apprentices.
2:08:03 > 2:08:06I think it was an opportunity that I was quite surprised to find that
2:08:06 > 2:08:09I didn't have to move away for, because I think my preconception
2:08:09 > 2:08:13was that you would probably have to move to have a really good career
2:08:13 > 2:08:17but now my view has completely changed on that now that I found
2:08:17 > 2:08:21the degree program, because you can do it from anywhere.
2:08:21 > 2:08:24Is the Government now stepping up after being accused of neglecting
2:08:24 > 2:08:27the Northern Powerhouse post-George Osborne?
2:08:27 > 2:08:33One of the real unsung bits about our Northern Powerhouse
2:08:33 > 2:08:37is the £70 million we put into our Northern Powerhouse schools
2:08:37 > 2:08:40strategy, which goes all the way from early-years provision
2:08:40 > 2:08:43and making sure that is as good as it can be, to the maths
2:08:43 > 2:08:45and English hubs we have set up.
2:08:45 > 2:08:47The authors of today's report say if it's followed,
2:08:47 > 2:08:50there could be 850,000 new jobs and £100 billion of new money
2:08:50 > 2:08:53in the northern economy.
2:08:53 > 2:08:56They claim that children from all backgrounds and postcodes
2:08:56 > 2:09:04will be given a fairer start.
2:09:06 > 2:09:10Facebook says it has made some changes to its news feed and that
2:09:10 > 2:09:14has meant a drop in its usage.For people who are not on Facebook, and
2:09:14 > 2:09:18there are some, the news feed is that thing where you would get all
2:09:18 > 2:09:22your updates from friends and family as well as pictures, photos and
2:09:22 > 2:09:26videos, and other stuff. That is the concern, because the other stuff has
2:09:26 > 2:09:29increasingly been adverts and promotions from businesses. There
2:09:29 > 2:09:33had been criticism that it had got to corporate, so people were turning
2:09:33 > 2:09:38off. So we have heard from boss Mark Zuckerberg that that is going to
2:09:38 > 2:09:42disappear. He wants to make it more fun again and engage more users in
2:09:42 > 2:09:45the website, because it relies on us using the website for advertising
2:09:45 > 2:09:50revenue. And has made a lot of it. Profits are up 56% in the latest
2:09:50 > 2:09:55figures, coming in at $16 billion, about £11 billion. So it is clearly
2:09:55 > 2:10:00doing something right, but at the same time, the number of users has
2:10:00 > 2:10:07fallen. We are spending less time on it and the
2:10:08 > 2:10:10it and the number of new people signing up to use it has gone down.
2:10:10 > 2:10:14There has been a 5% reduction in how long we spend on the site and for
2:10:14 > 2:10:15them as a business, that is not great.
2:10:15 > 2:10:19People are said to be spending an average of a minute and a half
2:10:19 > 2:10:20less each day on the network.
2:10:20 > 2:10:24But if you about upcoming comes to 50 million hours a day. So if you
2:10:24 > 2:10:26add up the minute and a half which is being reduced for everyone, that
2:10:26 > 2:10:30is a problem for the list. They need us to be clicking on the website,
2:10:30 > 2:10:33which means they can charge more for adverts, which means they can make
2:10:33 > 2:10:37more money. So the boss wants to make it fun again. There has been
2:10:37 > 2:10:41criticism is well over things like fake news and the involvement in
2:10:41 > 2:10:44politics, so here's looking at that and has said it will be a social
2:10:44 > 2:10:48media network, not just about business and adverts.
2:10:48 > 2:10:50For the first time since the Second World War,
2:10:50 > 2:10:53MPs look set to move out of the Palace of Westminster,
2:10:53 > 2:10:55while major renovation work is carried out.
2:10:55 > 2:10:57They voted in favour of the move last night.
2:10:57 > 2:10:59The repair programme will cost billions of pounds.
2:10:59 > 2:11:00Simon Jones reports.
2:11:00 > 2:11:03It may be a palace, but one that's in desperate need of repair.
2:11:03 > 2:11:11Anyone who's had building work done on their home will know it can be
2:11:11 > 2:11:17stressful, but MPs are now facing the prospect of moving out
2:11:17 > 2:11:18for several years while it's carried out.
2:11:18 > 2:11:21It will cost billions, with both the Commons and the House
2:11:21 > 2:11:23of Lords having to up sticks, most likely to another
2:11:23 > 2:11:24part of Whitehall.
2:11:24 > 2:11:26Many MPs say it's the only option.
2:11:26 > 2:11:28The building's crumbling, it needs rewiring and it's
2:11:28 > 2:11:34just not safe.
2:11:34 > 2:11:37One even said conditions were even worse than down in the pit.
2:11:37 > 2:11:39There's some steel props holding the roof up.
2:11:39 > 2:11:43It looks like the workplace I used to work in before I came into this
2:11:43 > 2:11:44building, and that was Maltby Colliery.
2:11:44 > 2:11:47Other MPs are reluctant to go, arguing the work should be
2:11:47 > 2:11:48done around them.
2:11:48 > 2:11:50There are also concerns about the cost.
2:11:50 > 2:11:52The Lords still have to give their approval
2:11:52 > 2:11:54and with the proposed departure not until 2025,
2:11:54 > 2:11:57that's after the next general election, the next parliament may
2:11:57 > 2:11:58take a different view.
2:11:58 > 2:12:05Simon Jones, BBC News.
2:12:05 > 2:12:07The Liberal Democrats have claimed that a key government target
2:12:07 > 2:12:09for treating people with severe mental health conditions
2:12:09 > 2:12:11in England isn't being met.
2:12:11 > 2:12:13The party says it gathered evidence which shows people experiencing
2:12:13 > 2:12:17a first episode of psychosis aren't getting a quality care package.
2:12:17 > 2:12:19NHS England says more than three-quarters of patients
2:12:19 > 2:12:21are seen within two weeks - and that the research shows
2:12:21 > 2:12:29a partial and "dated" picture of the services provided.
2:12:30 > 2:12:32Former health secretary, Norman Lamb, said mental health
2:12:32 > 2:12:33services lagged behind those for other illnesses.
2:12:33 > 2:12:40This would never be tolerated in cancer or any of other physical
2:12:40 > 2:12:46healthcare, but it is tolerated here.
2:12:46 > 2:12:50We have the evidence of what you need to do
2:12:50 > 2:12:51to have an impact, and yet
2:12:51 > 2:12:55across the country, it's not being funded.
2:12:55 > 2:13:01Hate crime against Jewish people in the UK is at a record. A report says
2:13:01 > 2:13:05the Jewish community was targeted at a rate of nearly four times a day
2:13:05 > 2:13:09last year. Online abuse is said to have fallen, but there has been a
2:13:09 > 2:13:13spike in reports of violent assault.
2:13:13 > 2:13:16Those are the main stories. We will have the sport and weather coming
2:13:16 > 2:13:16up.
2:13:16 > 2:13:20As we've been hearing, the proportion of people suffering
2:13:20 > 2:13:23strokes in middle age has risen sharply in the past decade,
2:13:23 > 2:13:24according to official figures.
2:13:24 > 2:13:26Although we associate strokes with the older generation,
2:13:26 > 2:13:29over a third are now occuring in
2:13:29 > 2:13:34In the last decade, the average age of men having strokes has
2:13:34 > 2:13:37gone down from 71 to 68.
2:13:37 > 2:13:41In England, one in six people will have a stroke
2:13:41 > 2:13:42in their lifetime.
2:13:42 > 2:13:45And two thirds of survivors will be left with a disability.
2:13:45 > 2:13:47With us now is Professor Julia Verne,
2:13:47 > 2:13:49from Public Health England, and Rob Goodwin, who
2:13:49 > 2:13:55survived a stroke in 2016.
2:13:55 > 2:14:00Julia, the actual numbers of people having strokes has not changed
2:14:00 > 2:14:06dramatically. This issue is about who is having them?Yes, the number
2:14:06 > 2:14:09hasn't changed, although the population is increasing. So per
2:14:09 > 2:14:14head of population, we are getting less strokes. But we are seeing a
2:14:14 > 2:14:18particular reduction in old people because risk factors for stroke are
2:14:18 > 2:14:24being better managed.So Rob, tell us what a few were when you had your
2:14:24 > 2:14:30stroke and the story.I was 48 and I was an atypical stroke candidate in
2:14:30 > 2:14:32that I'm not particularly overweight, I don't drink a lot and
2:14:32 > 2:14:37I don't smoke and I am quite active. And then one Monday morning, I got
2:14:37 > 2:14:40out of bed and I was just getting dressed after having had a shower
2:14:40 > 2:14:45literally collapsed and just fell to the floor, no warning, no sign that
2:14:45 > 2:14:50it was going to happen.Thank goodness your family was at home, so
2:14:50 > 2:14:55you could call for help.To be fair, I was quite disoriented and didn't
2:14:55 > 2:14:59know what was happening. Fortunately, my partner was in the
2:14:59 > 2:15:03bedroom and she thought I was messing around at first, but quickly
2:15:03 > 2:15:07realised I wasn't and she recognised the signs of stroke. I was
2:15:07 > 2:15:09completely paralysed down the left-hand side. I couldn't move my
2:15:09 > 2:15:14arm or leg. My face was asymmetrical and my speech was slurred, so she
2:15:14 > 2:15:20called for my stepdaughter Tilly, who phoned 999.Julia, what is
2:15:20 > 2:15:26interesting is the time frame. There is a three-hour window. Do you want
2:15:26 > 2:15:30to explain that?It is critical that if anybody observes somebody else
2:15:30 > 2:15:35having these symptoms, weakness in the face or in the arm, slurred
2:15:35 > 2:15:38speech, core 999. There is a three-hour window between the onset
2:15:38 > 2:15:44of symptoms and giving clotbusting medication. If that medication can
2:15:44 > 2:15:47be given within the window, it can prevent death and prevent
2:15:47 > 2:15:52disability.
2:15:54 > 2:15:58Rob described a very dramatic moment, he collapsed. The signs were
2:15:58 > 2:16:02all there. Is that always the case? Am I right in thinking it can be
2:16:02 > 2:16:04more subtle than that and sometimes people don't realise what has
2:16:04 > 2:16:08happened, certainly not those around them?Occasionally it can be more
2:16:08 > 2:16:12subtle and people could have a moment of just feeling blurred,
2:16:12 > 2:16:17disorientated, or numbness. One of the things Public Health England is
2:16:17 > 2:16:20trying to emphasise, although we talk about these three signs, your
2:16:20 > 2:16:25face, your arms, your slurred speech, anyone could be important
2:16:25 > 2:16:29and usually it comes on quickly. A low index of suspicion. Call 999,
2:16:29 > 2:16:33the Ambulance Service are ready to receive those signs and symptoms,
2:16:33 > 2:16:39they recognise those symptoms and will rush the patient to hospital,
2:16:39 > 2:16:42radioing ahead that they are bringing in a patient that is
2:16:42 > 2:16:46potentially suffering from a stroke. We would see the advertisement, the
2:16:46 > 2:16:51campaign to tell people what to recognise. If you take a step before
2:16:51 > 2:16:54that, before that actually happening, in terms of health, a
2:16:54 > 2:17:00personal question, are you healthy? Some of the attributes to the
2:17:00 > 2:17:06factors of this are smoking, alcohol, obesity. I mean, you look
2:17:06 > 2:17:09well, where you healthy, was there any indication you might have been
2:17:09 > 2:17:13vulnerable?None at all. As you say, I didn't have any of those risk
2:17:13 > 2:17:18factors. In hindsight, I am studying at the moment and perhaps there is
2:17:18 > 2:17:24some stress associated with that.Is nothing that he could have done to
2:17:24 > 2:17:28prevent that, although there are concerns now that people are not as
2:17:28 > 2:17:31mindful of those factors?The big risk factors of high blood pressure
2:17:31 > 2:17:36and diabetes. They account for about 80% of all strokes. Of course, acute
2:17:36 > 2:17:40strokes can occur in people with no risk factors at all. That is why it
2:17:40 > 2:17:43is so important for people to recognise the signs and symptoms.
2:17:43 > 2:17:51What was the point, Rob, beyond the point Irbil is what's called, when
2:17:51 > 2:17:56you were told and were able to digest the fact that, your age,
2:17:56 > 2:18:00relatively young, this had happened? Do you remember that moment?And
2:18:00 > 2:18:05particularly, I think I a bit disorientated for the first 24 hours
2:18:05 > 2:18:11or so. Although the diagnosis was made quickly, I trusted Kate's
2:18:11 > 2:18:14assessment of May, the ambulance crew were fantastic and rush me
2:18:14 > 2:18:18through to the stroke clinic immediately and I have that
2:18:18 > 2:18:26clotbusting treatment within an hour of having that stroke.What was
2:18:26 > 2:18:30going on in your head? I imagine it was a confusing time?The main thing
2:18:30 > 2:18:33that has hung around is the effect it has happened my confidence as
2:18:33 > 2:18:39much as anything. As you say, I didn't have any risk factors, it
2:18:39 > 2:18:44came completely out of the blue.You are well now physically?Remarkably,
2:18:44 > 2:18:4899.9% better physically, and 99% better from a confidence point of
2:18:48 > 2:18:52view. I have done remarkably well. Thank you so much for coming in and
2:18:52 > 2:19:00sharing your story.
2:19:01 > 2:19:09Carol is up in the sky. Well, pretty high up. 34
2:19:12 > 2:19:15high up. 34 storeys and enjoying the mild breeze?You are wrong on every
2:19:15 > 2:19:23single level, 35 floors up. The rest was right. It is freezing and windy.
2:19:23 > 2:19:27The temperature in London is 5 degrees. Adding that wind and it
2:19:27 > 2:19:31feels much lower than that. Look up the views, it is worth it for this
2:19:31 > 2:19:39alone across London. You can see The Shard, the London eye. Wherever you
2:19:39 > 2:19:42are this morning, it is cold. But for many there is a lot of dry
2:19:42 > 2:19:47weather and sunshine.
2:19:48 > 2:19:51Today we have a cold wind and the risk of ice on untreated surfaces
2:19:51 > 2:19:55this morning. Take it easy if you are heading out. Snow showers and a
2:19:55 > 2:19:59forecast today as well across Scotland. Nine o'clock, this is the
2:19:59 > 2:20:02picture we are looking at. Snow showers means a combination of rain,
2:20:02 > 2:20:07sleet and snow. But you don't have to come too far inland before we run
2:20:07 > 2:20:10into this snow. Outside the showers, there is a lot of dry weather and
2:20:10 > 2:20:15sunshine. For most of England, it is cold, but it is dry and there is a
2:20:15 > 2:20:18fair bit of sunshine around this thing this morning. Fabulous views
2:20:18 > 2:20:24of the moon in the clear skies overnight. As we come further south,
2:20:24 > 2:20:28a very similar story. In the south-west, you are not immune to
2:20:28 > 2:20:31some showers, neither around Gloucestershire and Bristol, also
2:20:31 > 2:20:35heading in across Wales. They will be the exception, rather than the
2:20:35 > 2:20:38rule. As we sweep across the Irish Sea and into Northern Ireland, we
2:20:38 > 2:20:42are back into the snow showers again. Again, you don't have to
2:20:42 > 2:20:46travel too far inland until you actually see the snow. It is more
2:20:46 > 2:20:50likely to be rain or sleet on the coast. Through the day, we continue
2:20:50 > 2:20:53with the wind. The strongest is gusting to gale force with exposure,
2:20:53 > 2:20:58across the north and west of the UK. As far as Aberystwyth in the south.
2:20:58 > 2:21:01Across the North and north-west of Scotland with exposure, we could
2:21:01 > 2:21:05have severe gales. Temperature wise, regardless of what you can see there
2:21:05 > 2:21:10on the charts, it will feel much colder because of the wind. As we
2:21:10 > 2:21:12head through the evening and overnight, it will carry on with
2:21:12 > 2:21:16some snow showers across parts of Scotland and also eastern England.
2:21:16 > 2:21:20Away from that, a lot of dry weather. Still quite windy. The
2:21:20 > 2:21:24temperatures, as you will see in a jiffy, are indicative of what you
2:21:24 > 2:21:29can expect in towns and cities. In rural areas, lower. -1, two plus
2:21:29 > 2:21:32one. There is the risk of ice on untreated surfaces. Tomorrow, high
2:21:32 > 2:21:40building across us and we will seek a fair bit of sunshine, but on the
2:21:40 > 2:21:43east coast we are looking at showers and a noticeable wind. In the West,
2:21:43 > 2:21:48there will be one of two showers. With lighter wind for most of us it
2:21:48 > 2:21:53is not going to feel as bitter as today. Later in the day, the weather
2:21:53 > 2:21:57front shows its hand in the West. On Saturday, that will be bringing in
2:21:57 > 2:22:00rain, sleet and wet snow at lower levels. We will see some snow
2:22:00 > 2:22:05started to accumulate on higher ground. This particular forecast is
2:22:05 > 2:22:09a complicated one. It could change. If you have outdoor plans on
2:22:09 > 2:22:12Saturday, do keep watching. What I can tell you as we head into the new
2:22:12 > 2:22:16working week next week, it will remain cold and, for some of us, we
2:22:16 > 2:22:23will see further spells of snow.I have heard... I stand corrected, 35
2:22:23 > 2:22:26floors. I have heard from the planning team that you are on a
2:22:26 > 2:22:30building that is 42 floors up next week. Just so you are clear!I have
2:22:30 > 2:22:43suddenly remembered, I have got a cold coming on!See you later!
2:22:44 > 2:22:47Over the last few months stargazers have been lucky enough to see
2:22:47 > 2:22:50supermoons and even a blue moon - that's a second full moon
2:22:50 > 2:22:52in the same calendar month - but last night,
2:22:52 > 2:22:53even more unusual.
2:22:53 > 2:22:55A "super blue blood moon"
2:22:55 > 2:23:04is a spectacle that hasn't been seen for 152 years.
2:23:05 > 2:23:07It came from above!
2:23:07 > 2:23:10It is a combination of a blue moon, a total lunar eclipse which turns
2:23:10 > 2:23:13the moon a hazy shade of red and a super moon all
2:23:13 > 2:23:14at the same time.
2:23:14 > 2:23:18According to NASA, the next super blue blood moon won't happen
2:23:18 > 2:23:19until New Year's Eve, 2028.
2:23:19 > 2:23:20Such a rare lunar event captured
2:23:20 > 2:23:28the imagination of astronomers and photographers around the world.
2:23:57 > 2:24:00It's an opportunity for people to make a direct connection
2:24:00 > 2:24:01to gravity, the solar system and celestial
2:24:01 > 2:24:03mechanics because they can watch it happening before
2:24:03 > 2:24:10their very own eyes.
2:24:10 > 2:24:13This is once in a lifetime and I don't care if it's 3:30am.
2:24:13 > 2:24:15I worked last night but slept a couple of hours
2:24:15 > 2:24:16and came back up here.
2:24:16 > 2:24:18So was it worth it?
2:24:18 > 2:24:25Totally worth it, yeah.
2:24:49 > 2:24:52We asked you on social media and the BBC News website to send
2:24:52 > 2:24:59us your photos of the supermoon, And you responded in your hundreds.
2:24:59 > 2:25:07Show your pictures of the shupermoon!
2:25:07 > 2:25:09Barry snapped the shupermoon illuminating the runway
2:25:09 > 2:25:12at Gatwick airport.
2:25:12 > 2:25:14Sian sent us this rather moody picture, taken through the trees
2:25:14 > 2:25:16near her home in West Suffolk.
2:25:16 > 2:25:18This was the scene in Kelso in the Scottish Borders,
2:25:18 > 2:25:22thanks to Claire for this photo.
2:25:22 > 2:25:30That looks eerie. I can imagine a werewolf underneath that!
2:25:31 > 2:25:34And we've also had some pictures from those people lucky enough to be
2:25:34 > 2:25:37in the path of the solar eclipse, this is from Pareet
2:25:37 > 2:25:42in Mombasa, Kenya.
2:25:42 > 2:25:50If you remembered what a super blue moon super... Thing is? Have you
2:25:50 > 2:25:53remember the caveats?Doesn't happen very often. It hasn't happened for
2:25:53 > 2:25:58152 years. My information tells me that there is expected to be another
2:25:58 > 2:26:04one in ten years' time.New Year's Eve, 2028. Who knew?
2:26:04 > 2:26:06Thank you for all your pictures so far, please keep them coming
2:26:06 > 2:26:14either on social media or you can email us at bbcbreakfast@bbc.co.uk
2:26:14 > 2:26:20A really good film coming up, coming out this week. We have the director
2:26:20 > 2:26:26coming in. He started off his business in double glazing. He
2:26:26 > 2:26:29always had a passion for film. Could not quite follow it, and then
2:26:29 > 2:26:33decided to sell up and make a film, and he managed to get the likes of
2:26:33 > 2:26:38Harvey
2:26:38 > 2:26:42Harvey Keitel.If you want to do something, do it yourself! We will
2:26:42 > 2:26:46also be reflecting on your comments on the issues around the Grid girls
2:26:46 > 2:26:50and Formula one. We will be talking about the darts as well, quite a bit
2:26:50 > 2:26:56of controversy to do with whether or not they should be banned.
2:26:56 > 2:30:17Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are.
2:30:18 > 2:30:20I'm back with the latest from the BBC London
2:30:20 > 2:30:25newsroom in half an hour.
2:30:25 > 2:30:32Hello, this is Breakfast with Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty.
2:30:33 > 2:30:39The time now is 8:30am. The proportion of people having
2:30:39 > 2:30:45strokes in their 40s and 50s has risen sharply over the decade.
2:30:45 > 2:30:5220% of cases now occur in those between 40 and 59. Obesity and
2:30:52 > 2:30:56sedentary lifestyles are thought to be factors behind the rise.
2:30:56 > 2:30:58The Prime Minister has indicated that she will fight EU proposals
2:30:58 > 2:31:01to give residency rights to European citizens moving to the UK
2:31:01 > 2:31:02during the Brexit transition period.
2:31:02 > 2:31:05Speaking during a visit to China, Theresa May made it clear
2:31:05 > 2:31:07there was a difference between people arriving before
2:31:07 > 2:31:09and after March 2019, when Britain formally leaves
2:31:09 > 2:31:14the European Union.
2:31:14 > 2:31:23Ahead of meeting with the Chinese Prime Minister today, Liam Fox told
2:31:23 > 2:31:30Theresa May -- told us he wished MPs with the Theresa May the way she is
2:31:30 > 2:31:35viewed by the rest of the world.I sometimes wish that first of all
2:31:35 > 2:31:38people could see the Prime Minister the way that she is seen in other
2:31:38 > 2:31:43countries in terms of the vision she puts forward for Britain. And
2:31:43 > 2:31:45secondly, I sometimes wish they could see Britain in the way that
2:31:45 > 2:31:49the rest of the world sees us and not some of the internal
2:31:49 > 2:31:54commentators in the UK.
2:31:54 > 2:31:56The economic gap between the north and south of England
2:31:56 > 2:31:58will continue to grow, unless the government prioritises
2:31:58 > 2:31:59education and skills.
2:31:59 > 2:32:02That's the warning this morning from the Northern Powerhouse Partnership,
2:32:02 > 2:32:04an independent body set up to try re-balance the economy away
2:32:04 > 2:32:05from the dominance of London.
2:32:05 > 2:32:07It says disadvantaged children are being let down,
2:32:07 > 2:32:10and that a lack of funding and aspiration are holding back
2:32:10 > 2:32:16economic growth in the region.
2:32:16 > 2:32:20The Liberal Democrats have claimed that a key target for treating
2:32:20 > 2:32:23people with severe mental health conditions in England is being met.
2:32:23 > 2:32:27The party said it gathered evidence which shows that people experiencing
2:32:27 > 2:32:33a first episode of psychosis aren't getting a quality Kem -- a quality
2:32:33 > 2:32:37care package. NHS England does more than three quarters of people are
2:32:37 > 2:32:48seen within two weeks. Norman Lamb said care of mental health lags
2:32:48 > 2:32:53behind physical illnesses.This would never be tolerated in cancer
2:32:53 > 2:32:58care and yet it is tolerated in mental health. We have evidence of
2:32:58 > 2:33:01what you need to do to have an impact and yet across the country,
2:33:01 > 2:33:04it is not being funded.
2:33:04 > 2:33:0628 Russian athletes facing a lifetime ban
2:33:06 > 2:33:08from the Olympics for doping have had their suspensions
2:33:08 > 2:33:10overturned by the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
2:33:10 > 2:33:1211 other athletes have had their appeals partially upheld.
2:33:12 > 2:33:15The group of Russians had been banned for doping offences
2:33:15 > 2:33:18at the 2014 Winter Games in Sochi.
2:33:18 > 2:33:21The head of the Russian Olympic Committee, Alexander Zhukov,
2:33:21 > 2:33:26said the court had restored the Russian athletes' good name.
2:33:26 > 2:33:29Hate crime against Jewish people in the UK is at a record high.
2:33:29 > 2:33:31A new report from the "Community Security Trust",
2:33:31 > 2:33:39which monitors anti-semitism, says the Jewsih community
2:33:41 > 2:33:44-- Jewish community was targeted at a rate of nearly
2:33:44 > 2:33:45four-times-a-day last year.
2:33:45 > 2:33:48Online abuse is said to have fallen, but there's been a spike
2:33:48 > 2:33:49in reports of violent assault.
2:33:49 > 2:33:52MPs have voted to move out of the Palace of Westminster whilst
2:33:52 > 2:34:00billions of pounds worth of renovation work is done.It would be
2:34:00 > 2:34:04the first time MPs have moved out of the Commons that it was damaged by a
2:34:04 > 2:34:09bomb in the Second World War. The work must still be approved by the
2:34:09 > 2:34:10House of Lords.
2:34:10 > 2:34:12Facebook says changes to its newsfeed have led
2:34:12 > 2:34:14to a significant drop in usage.
2:34:14 > 2:34:16People are said to be spending an average
2:34:16 > 2:34:18of a minute-and-a-half less each day on the network.
2:34:18 > 2:34:21The changes - fewer viral videos and more checks on advertising -
2:34:21 > 2:34:23were introduced partly to combat so-called 'fake news'.
2:34:23 > 2:34:24That brings you up to date.
2:34:24 > 2:34:27Victoria Derbyshire is on at 9 o'clock this morning on BBC2.
2:34:27 > 2:34:32Let's find out what's on the programme today.
2:34:33 > 2:34:37Good morning. We have got exclusive access to a church where men who
2:34:37 > 2:34:41were some of Britain's most dangerous gangsters are among the
2:34:41 > 2:34:45congregation. The salvage of the play was anointed church wants to
2:34:45 > 2:34:49save lives and reduce knife crime -- knife crime through mentoring.I
2:34:49 > 2:34:56have seen men come to the altar, they have heard the word and they
2:34:56 > 2:34:59dropped their drugs on the altar, they dropped their knives on the
2:34:59 > 2:35:04altar.The Met police say they want churches like this to be seen as
2:35:04 > 2:35:08safe spaces for young people. Join us at nine o'clock on BBC Two, the
2:35:08 > 2:35:10BBC News Channel and online.
2:35:10 > 2:35:14And coming up here on Breakfast this morning -
2:35:14 > 2:35:16we'll meet the writer and director who sold his double
2:35:16 > 2:35:18glazing firm to pursue his dream in film.
2:35:18 > 2:35:20He'll be here to tell us about his debut -
2:35:20 > 2:35:22featuring Hollywood stars Harvey Keitel and Gabriel Byrne!
2:35:22 > 2:35:26Chips, crisps and cake are fuelling a pet
2:35:26 > 2:35:28obesity crisis in the UK - but we'll hear how even
2:35:28 > 2:35:31a tin of tuna could be making your cat fat.
2:35:31 > 2:35:35And Jethro Tull's lead singer Ian Anderson will be here,
2:35:35 > 2:35:41as the band celebrates 50 years in music.
2:35:42 > 2:35:47Right now, sport.
2:35:47 > 2:35:49It's been a record-breaking January transfer window
2:35:49 > 2:35:51for the Premier League.
2:35:51 > 2:35:52£430 million spent in total as clubs scrambled
2:35:52 > 2:35:55to secure new players.
2:35:55 > 2:35:58Liverpool started the big money moves with the most expensive
2:35:58 > 2:35:59signing of the month - defender Virgil van
2:35:59 > 2:36:03Dijk from Southampton for £75 million pounds.
2:36:03 > 2:36:08Manchester City splashed out a club record £57 million on defender
2:36:08 > 2:36:12Aymeric Laporte from Athletic Bilbao.
2:36:12 > 2:36:14Borussia Dortmund's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang cost
2:36:14 > 2:36:18Arsenal £56 million - a club record fee for them too.
2:36:18 > 2:36:20Brazilian winger Lucas Moura has transferred to Tottenham from
2:36:20 > 2:36:25Paris Saint-Germain for £25 million.
2:36:25 > 2:36:2812 years at Arsenal came to an end for Theo Walcott,
2:36:28 > 2:36:36after being lured to Everton for £20 million.
2:36:36 > 2:36:39And Olivier Giroud has moved from Arsenal to their London rivals
2:36:39 > 2:36:42Chelsea for around £18 million.
2:36:42 > 2:36:44Arsenal striker Ian Wright says the amount spent over the whole
2:36:44 > 2:36:48window is so high that it feels as if clubs are offering huge sums
2:36:48 > 2:36:49without any worries.
2:36:49 > 2:36:52I think the clubs are playing with house money, you know, it's
2:36:52 > 2:36:53television money, it's money that they can
2:36:53 > 2:36:57just spend willy-nilly and this is maybe why we are seeing
2:36:57 > 2:36:59prices go so astronomically high because they are not bothered.
2:36:59 > 2:37:01"OK, we'll pay that, no problem, we've
2:37:01 > 2:37:04got the television money, we'll pay it."
2:37:04 > 2:37:07It was certainly a busy few hours for football last night -
2:37:07 > 2:37:10seven top flight clubs were in action in the final
2:37:10 > 2:37:13hours of the transfer window and the fastest goal
2:37:13 > 2:37:14of the Premier League season was scored

2:39:01 > 2:39:03Yorkshire businessman Mitu Misra had a successful double glazing company,

2:39:06 > 2:39:08After making his fortune, he sold his company and decided
2:39:08 > 2:39:10to make his dream a reality.
2:39:10 > 2:39:12His film, Lies We Tell - starring Harvey Keitel
2:39:12 > 2:39:14and Gabriel Byrne - is released tomorrow,

2:39:17 > 2:39:19is destroying his hometown of Bradford.
2:39:19 > 2:39:25Mitu joins us now.
2:39:25 > 2:39:32Good morning. Thailand is a bit about your personal story. Had you
2:39:32 > 2:39:41always had a passion for films?No, nothing to do with making them. I
2:39:41 > 2:39:46had a passion for watching them. The background I came from, the only
2:39:46 > 2:39:51aspiration you could have really worth from watching the cinema. For
2:39:51 > 2:39:55me, the cinema was everything, a relief from the day-to-day struggles
2:39:55 > 2:40:03my parents had.But the day job is making money selling windows.It
2:40:03 > 2:40:08was. It was a long journey and eventually I sold my stake in 2013.
2:40:08 > 2:40:14I started writing into gathered of all,, and that story was Lies We
2:40:14 > 2:40:23Tell.What did your parents make of your dream to end up in film?I
2:40:23 > 2:40:29never thought I would end up there because we were too poor to dream of
2:40:29 > 2:40:39being in film. My parents encouraged me to study so that I would not be
2:40:39 > 2:40:45as poor and once I had become successful, I was determined to
2:40:45 > 2:40:49follow my dream. I learned how to write and what the word narrative
2:40:49 > 2:40:54meant.Fast forward, you have the money together, you have got a cast
2:40:54 > 2:40:58and then you make the decision to direct yourself, which appears to
2:40:58 > 2:41:04have happened unwittingly?It was unwitting. We were trying to find
2:41:04 > 2:41:10another director because I had never done it in my life. Then the
2:41:10 > 2:41:13director of photography read the script and he said that the only one
2:41:13 > 2:41:16that could direct it was myself because no one else would understand
2:41:16 > 2:41:19the nuances and I told him I had never been on is that before and he
2:41:19 > 2:41:24said, don't worry, I will be with you. And after a couple of drinks I
2:41:24 > 2:41:28said, yes.Day one on the set, you have to make those calls. Did you
2:41:28 > 2:41:33know what everything was?No, it was quite an experience. I didn't even
2:41:33 > 2:41:38know what a boom was. I told Gabriel I had never made a film before but
2:41:38 > 2:41:43he thought I had been on is that and had some idea. I asked what the boom
2:41:43 > 2:41:47was and everything went silent on site.You have mentioned Gabriel
2:41:47 > 2:41:53Byrne and it's interesting in Sao Paulo have got Gabriel Byrne and
2:41:53 > 2:41:59Harvey Keitel involved. Let's see a clip.What's in the bag?It is
2:41:59 > 2:42:09rubbish.Well, if it's rubbish, I'll take it.
2:42:17 > 2:42:24Can you put that back, please?It's mine. He gave it to me years ago.
2:42:24 > 2:42:30Put it back.
2:42:32 > 2:42:40Put it back.Can you give me my keys, please?Well, that is the
2:42:40 > 2:42:45start, so we're not going to ruin anything about the film, that is the
2:42:45 > 2:42:49start of an intriguing relationship between the two and what happens is,
2:42:49 > 2:42:51and this is where your experience and you are talking about the
2:42:51 > 2:42:57nuances you bring to the film, your experiences of living in Yorkshire,
2:42:57 > 2:43:03living in Bradford, and what happens there is perhaps a story that is not
2:43:03 > 2:43:09told very openly.It's a story about a driver called Donald who was
2:43:09 > 2:43:17thrown in to a mysterious world. Although they are from the same
2:43:17 > 2:43:21city, he is on a journey where he discovers the underbelly of
2:43:21 > 2:43:27Bradford.Why did you feel the need to tell this story?Because growing
2:43:27 > 2:43:30up, Bradford was a northern powerhouse and then over the years
2:43:30 > 2:43:34it has slowly demised and fragmented to what it has become now, a city
2:43:34 > 2:43:39which people avoid and I think I was fortunate enough to be able to feel
2:43:39 > 2:43:42financially stable, to look at Bradford objectively enough, try to
2:43:42 > 2:43:47figure out what it is.Some of the Asian community will look at this,
2:43:47 > 2:43:50particularly those living in Bradford, and there you have not
2:43:50 > 2:43:56painted it in the most favourable of lights?It is honest, but we had a
2:43:56 > 2:44:00viewing in Bradford last week and everyone, 100% of the ladies,
2:44:00 > 2:44:04championed the film, they loved it and said it was about time this was
2:44:04 > 2:44:09fed, and 50% of the men said the same thing. The other 50% said maybe
2:44:09 > 2:44:14their society or the society they come from isn't ready to face this
2:44:14 > 2:44:18debate.It's interesting to talk about that screening there. Some of
2:44:18 > 2:44:24the biggest directors in the world often sneaking, they say, to regular
2:44:24 > 2:44:29auditoriums to get the feeling of how the reaction is.I had never
2:44:29 > 2:44:35made a film before, so...Yes, it can be good or bad because obviously
2:44:35 > 2:44:44you are very proud but you have to be thick-skinned because it's about
2:44:44 > 2:44:51what the audience says.It is a northern North thriller, and you can
2:44:51 > 2:45:00see that it is something with layers.Are you working on anything
2:45:00 > 2:45:03out I am halfway through writing and other film, why hasn't Gandhi died
2:45:03 > 2:45:09at. Am I right in saying that Gabriel Byrne and Harvey Keitel cup
2:45:09 > 2:45:14bevvies when they heard it was independently funded? -- cut their
2:45:14 > 2:45:18fees when they headed with independently funded?Not even that.
2:45:18 > 2:45:25It was when he found the script. He wanted to find out it was a
2:45:25 > 2:45:28politically funded and secondly that every character had read Di
2:45:28 > 2:45:34mentions. It wasn't a TD pill. When he liked the script, he reduced his
2:45:34 > 2:45:39feed by half.Could you work with him again?I would love to. He
2:45:39 > 2:45:43helped me so much. When he found out I didn't know about the boom, he
2:45:43 > 2:45:47called me to his trailer and he was walking up and down and we thought
2:45:47 > 2:45:52he was going to walk and he turned round to me and said, why the
2:45:52 > 2:45:56expletive didn't you do a small course or something and I looked to
2:45:56 > 2:46:00home in bed, arrogance. I didn't think it would be that difficult. He
2:46:00 > 2:46:04burst out laughing, put his shirt back on and said, come on. He helped
2:46:04 > 2:46:09me so much from that point. Particularly when Harvey Keitel
2:46:09 > 2:46:13wouldn't take his shirt or trousers.
2:46:13 > 2:46:17Now you need to explain the scene involving Harvey Keitel, how did you
2:46:17 > 2:46:25persuade him to do it?I went to Gabriel Byrne!You do it!He said
2:46:25 > 2:46:30what is the function of the scene and we solve that, at the start of
2:46:30 > 2:46:34the film he takes his trousers off and he is putting them on and that
2:46:34 > 2:46:38was the alternative that came from Gabriel. Harvey is a tough
2:46:38 > 2:46:48character. He threatened to kidnap my wife. He writes to me every
2:46:48 > 2:46:51second week, he has invited me to Hollywood and offered me a role also
2:46:51 > 2:46:58I said I've never acted before, and I said no, politely.But you have
2:46:58 > 2:47:02directed and you can act.Harvey rang me from New York when he had
2:47:02 > 2:47:05read the script and he rang me to say he's doing the film and will
2:47:05 > 2:47:11reduce his fees by half because it's the best line of his career, he said
2:47:11 > 2:47:15first, Tarantino could not write it and the line is the only men who get
2:47:15 > 2:47:19caught are those who don't love their lives. Michael Wise enough,
2:47:19 > 2:47:26it's so Buddhist even Buddha couldn't have said it. -- don't love
2:47:26 > 2:47:30their wives enough.
2:47:30 > 2:47:34Mitu's film is called Lies We Tell.
2:47:34 > 2:47:38You have wrapped up the film industry, you know it inside out.
2:47:38 > 2:47:43It's on video and demand and all the major platforms. Thank you so much
2:47:43 > 2:47:50for being so nice to me.Of course we are nice to you! It is 8:47am.
2:47:50 > 2:47:56Let's go and see Carol also look at this location.
2:48:01 > 2:48:06Isn't it gorgeous, Charlie. I'm at the sky garden, 24 floors up above
2:48:06 > 2:48:09the walkie-talkie building in the City of London, the views are
2:48:09 > 2:48:12spectacular, you've just been looking at the London eye, but the
2:48:12 > 2:48:17views behind me are fabulous, we have clear skies, we have seen the
2:48:17 > 2:48:22supermoon and sunrise and it's cold, the 1st of February is that little
2:48:22 > 2:48:26bit longer, the nights a little bit shorter as we head to the summer
2:48:26 > 2:48:29months and I can't wait because this morning it is perishing if you
2:48:29 > 2:48:34haven't yet stepped out. The forecast for us all today is one of
2:48:34 > 2:48:39a very cold wind and also the risk of ice on untreated surfaces. We
2:48:39 > 2:48:44still have snow showers in the forecast as well. If we start the
2:48:44 > 2:48:49focus at 9am in Scotland we do have snow showers. By snow showers I need
2:48:49 > 2:48:53a combination of rain, sleet and snow but you don't have to move too
2:48:53 > 2:48:56far inland to see the snow. Elsewhere there is dry weather and
2:48:56 > 2:49:02sunshine. Across northern England, eastern England, East Anglia, the
2:49:02 > 2:49:06London area and Midlands and down to the South Bank again, it's a cold
2:49:06 > 2:49:10start but a beautiful one with a fair bit of sunshine, and drifting
2:49:10 > 2:49:16to the south-west the same holds true. In the south-west you might
2:49:16 > 2:49:19see the odd shower around Gloucestershire and also through
2:49:19 > 2:49:24parts of Wales but they will be the exception rather than the rule. For
2:49:24 > 2:49:28most it will remain dry. Heading into Northern Ireland and we're back
2:49:28 > 2:49:32into the snow showers. Again, that mixture of rain, sleet and snow but
2:49:32 > 2:49:36any accusations of snow will more than likely be at height. Through
2:49:36 > 2:49:40the day it will be windy where ever you are but the strongest winds
2:49:40 > 2:49:43gusting to gale force with exposure will be across the north and west of
2:49:43 > 2:49:47the UK, probably as far south as mid-Wales but we could have severe
2:49:47 > 2:49:53gales off the coast, for example, of North and north-west Scotland. So, a
2:49:53 > 2:49:57lot of sunshine, temperatures very academic, because if you are in the
2:49:57 > 2:50:01wind, my giddy aunt, it is cold! Heading into the evening and
2:50:01 > 2:50:05overnight we continue some snow showers not just in the north but a
2:50:05 > 2:50:08few potentially in the east as well and there will be lots of dry
2:50:08 > 2:50:12weather around tonight, still quite windy and still the risk of ice on
2:50:12 > 2:50:15untreated surfaces and the temperatures on the charts
2:50:15 > 2:50:20indicative of towns and cities and in role areas more likely to be -1
2:50:20 > 2:50:23month plus one. Tomorrow we have a ridge of high pressure across as
2:50:23 > 2:50:29meaning things are fairly settled, lots of dry weather, lots of
2:50:29 > 2:50:32sunshine, but down the East Coast of the UK still a fair few showers and
2:50:32 > 2:50:36a keen wind. In the west there will be some showers, just not as many.
2:50:36 > 2:50:40Temperature wise, not too dissimilar from today but in light winds and in
2:50:40 > 2:50:44the sunshine it won't feel as bitter as today. Late in the day the
2:50:44 > 2:50:47weather front coming in from the west through Saturday will introduce
2:50:47 > 2:50:53a combination of rain, wet snow and also some sleet. Now, this forecast
2:50:53 > 2:50:58could change. Saturday's forecast is quite complicated, so if you have
2:50:58 > 2:51:02any outdoor plans do keep watching but as we head into the new working
2:51:02 > 2:51:05week it's going to turn cold once again and what you will find is some
2:51:05 > 2:51:09of us will see further snow. Charlie and Naga.
2:51:09 > 2:51:17What is the plan, Carol was Mac hot cup of tea, hand warmers, hot bath?
2:51:17 > 2:51:23All of these things, defrost, definitely, Naga.
2:51:23 > 2:51:25Remember that, the 42nd floor next week.
2:51:25 > 2:51:31In your dreams! Enjoy, Carol, take care.
2:51:31 > 2:51:37The time is 8:51am. 6 million pets across the UK I regularly eating
2:51:37 > 2:51:43unhealthy treats. The PSA animal charity says the bad diets and in --
2:51:43 > 2:51:47inadequate exercise is fuelling an obesity crisis..
2:51:47 > 2:51:51Alex German joins us now who has written a letter to vets urging them
2:51:51 > 2:51:55to do more about it and Lee Piercey is here with his dog. Good morning
2:51:55 > 2:52:02to you both. Although he looks very comfortable what we're not seeing is
2:52:02 > 2:52:07Billy has become overweight, he has Epona shone for cheese and toast. --
2:52:07 > 2:52:12he has a penchant. We want to see how chubby he is.
2:52:12 > 2:52:16he has a penchant. We want to see how chubby he is.He is seven kilos
2:52:16 > 2:52:20overweight so he really is overweight.And much should he way?
2:52:20 > 2:52:28He is double his body weight.-- how much should he weigh? Have you
2:52:28 > 2:52:34checked him over? What are you seeing when you see a dog that size?
2:52:34 > 2:52:41We use a 9-point system, we have the ideal weight, underweight and
2:52:41 > 2:52:45overweight, nine equates to 40% overweight. Sadly for Billy I think
2:52:45 > 2:52:50he's beyond nine, something we are seeing more and more.He is twice
2:52:50 > 2:53:01the weight he should be?Rather than being 40% overweight, he is 100%,
2:53:01 > 2:53:07which is shown by the new system. I have written a letter to the head
2:53:07 > 2:53:12vet. We have a big problem with growing dogs. A study recently
2:53:12 > 2:53:22showed 30 -- that is percent of growing dogs are overweight. -- 37%.
2:53:22 > 2:53:26He is six or seven, we were not sure of it when we got him because we
2:53:26 > 2:53:31adopted him. He was underweight when we got him. Over the last couple of
2:53:31 > 2:53:35years he has really progressed. People will be watching Gelling,
2:53:35 > 2:53:39what are you doing? Why haven't you fed him well?The important thing is
2:53:39 > 2:53:46I've recognised his problem and join the PDSA fitness club for pets and
2:53:46 > 2:53:53doing something positive.How easy it was to slip into bad habits?Very
2:53:53 > 2:53:58easy, he is there every day, he's your best friend and you give him a
2:53:58 > 2:54:01bit and before you know it you are in a situation like this and it's
2:54:01 > 2:54:06important to recognise it and get it sorted.You can see the effects.
2:54:06 > 2:54:10Apart from anything else, Billy looks a lot older than he is, no
2:54:10 > 2:54:15offence. It is quite ageing.Like with people there are many
2:54:15 > 2:54:20parallels. It does age you, we have studies that show dogs that are
2:54:20 > 2:54:24overweight live a shorter life, poorer quality life and get multiple
2:54:24 > 2:54:27diseases, very similar source of trends we see in people.Different
2:54:27 > 2:54:31breeds of dog, we're talking a lot about dogs but it applies to other
2:54:31 > 2:54:34animals. From breeds of dog, some people think they have a natural
2:54:34 > 2:54:38propensity to put on weight and others don't.There are some genetic
2:54:38 > 2:54:42links we have shown in the Labrador, for example, they have always
2:54:42 > 2:54:46thought to be the top breed but the ones that worry as most are the
2:54:46 > 2:54:54small breeze breeds, French plugs, Bulldogs, 70% can be overweight
2:54:54 > 2:54:57because they struggle to breathe already and put extra fat around
2:54:57 > 2:55:05things and it is a major issue.What clicked for you? The message has
2:55:05 > 2:55:09been around for years, as long as you regularly visit the vet and they
2:55:09 > 2:55:13tell you not to feed your pet too much, but what was it that clicked?
2:55:13 > 2:55:17A particular statistic for a fact? People would say that your blog is
2:55:17 > 2:55:21piling the pounds on and I was working at the PDSA where I
2:55:21 > 2:55:24volunteer and my manager said there is a thick club that he could
2:55:24 > 2:55:26benefit from and once it clicked that he is really overweight and
2:55:26 > 2:55:31it's not fair on him so I need to do something.Are there particular
2:55:31 > 2:55:38foodstuffs? When we were talking about it earlier, a tin of tuna, and
2:55:38 > 2:55:42cats particularly, people think they love a little treat, give them a tin
2:55:42 > 2:55:45of tuna.If you give a small tin of tuna to a cat that is like us having
2:55:45 > 2:55:51seven tens of tuna. Now, I like to know but I don't like to eat seven
2:55:51 > 2:55:55tens in one go. The problem is we don't realise those extras. We're
2:55:55 > 2:55:58feeding the normal food putting it in the bowl as we do and those
2:55:58 > 2:56:03extras soon add up.Portion control does not apply to animals.Whatever
2:56:03 > 2:56:09you feed, portion control is number one.I'm assuming the red thing is
2:56:09 > 2:56:12something that you put food in and it rolls around on the floor and
2:56:12 > 2:56:15that gives them exercise while they chase it.There are loads of ways to
2:56:15 > 2:56:20help, and with a weight plan for somebody like Billy, they will be
2:56:20 > 2:56:25fed less.The food is inside and rattles around.It is moving around,
2:56:25 > 2:56:29it will fall over and come back up again. This one is a modified
2:56:29 > 2:56:35feeding bowl. Why do we need to feed dogs and cats in bowls? The sort of
2:56:35 > 2:56:39thing is great, it's static but they have to work around it.Working on
2:56:39 > 2:56:44the idea of foraging.Dogs and cats are Contra freeloaders, did you know
2:56:44 > 2:56:49that?What does that mean?Given the choice they would prefer to work for
2:56:49 > 2:56:53their food rather than having free choice and studies have shown that.
2:56:53 > 2:56:57Not only does it slow them down and send signals to their stomach to say
2:56:57 > 2:57:03they are full but they really enjoyed.Can I ask Lee, where are
2:57:03 > 2:57:06you on the chart of Billy losing weight?We are at the top just
2:57:06 > 2:57:09starting now, it's just been addressed and we are going to go
2:57:09 > 2:57:14from here.This is the beginning of the process?Yes.Do you have a
2:57:14 > 2:57:20timescale?It is not an overnight process, it will take 6-12 months.
2:57:20 > 2:57:23It will be at least 12 months for him but it is a lifelong thing and
2:57:23 > 2:57:27we see them rebound as well. It is a change which is a good thing and the
2:57:27 > 2:57:32great thing is he has made a change. I suspect we have to get Billy back
2:57:32 > 2:57:36in to see his progress.That would be brilliant.You would feel that
2:57:36 > 2:57:39you are being scrutinised which might be a good thing.
2:57:39 > 2:57:41Happiness at school is even more important
2:57:41 > 2:57:43than academic qualifications - and should even be factored
2:57:43 > 2:57:44into the curriculum.
2:57:44 > 2:57:46That's the conclusion of a major report by
2:57:46 > 2:57:48Professor Lord Richard Layard from the London School of Economics.
2:57:48 > 2:57:50Using data from more than 100,000 people,
2:57:50 > 2:57:57Professor Layard has concluded that wellbeing is even more important
2:57:57 > 2:57:58than academic qualifications - and wants happiness factored
2:57:58 > 2:58:00into the curriculum.
2:58:00 > 2:58:03Tim Muffett has been to a secondary school in Dartford that has made
2:58:03 > 2:58:05weekly healthy minds lessons a number one priority.
2:58:05 > 2:58:06The pathway through childhood, adolescence and beyond.
2:58:06 > 2:58:14Going into year11,there'll be a lot of exam stress.
2:58:14 > 2:58:17Take a step back and think about what you're going to do next.
2:58:17 > 2:58:19It can be paved with challenges, exams, friendships,
2:58:19 > 2:58:20social media, self-esteem.
2:58:20 > 2:58:23Many people of our age, they deal with mental health issues
2:58:23 > 2:58:25and they're very scared to come out about them.
2:58:25 > 2:58:27Who can tell me what catastrophising means?
2:58:27 > 2:58:29At the Leigh Academy in Dartford in Kent,
2:58:29 > 2:58:32the curriculum has been changed to try and help.
2:58:32 > 2:58:36Can you think of all the different types of emotion that maybe you have
2:58:36 > 2:58:40within school or maybe in your home life?
2:58:40 > 2:58:42Four years ago with 30 other schools it introduced
2:58:42 > 2:58:45a new subject, healthy minds.
2:58:45 > 2:58:48The students have one lesson per week and that's dedicated
2:58:48 > 2:58:50for one hour when they come to their healthy minds lesson,
2:58:50 > 2:58:52look at things like relationships, resilience, things like
2:58:52 > 2:58:56mental health.
2:58:56 > 2:58:59I think they're really important in building character and helping us
2:58:59 > 2:59:02develop as children.
2:59:02 > 2:59:05If you got a problem you been taught, like,
2:59:05 > 2:59:10how to solve it all what to do.
2:59:10 > 2:59:12It's all good going to maths, English, science lessons,
2:59:12 > 2:59:15they build your brain but I think healthy minds build characters.
2:59:15 > 2:59:17A huge study of mental health, well-being and happiness
2:59:17 > 2:59:22is about to be published.
2:59:22 > 2:59:25It's analysed data from 100,000 people and it shows that schools
2:59:25 > 2:59:28and teachers can have almost as much impact on a child's happiness
2:59:28 > 2:59:30as they can on their academic performance, and that the impact
2:59:30 > 2:59:38lasts a long time.
2:59:38 > 2:59:40The best predictor of whether an adult will be happy
2:59:40 > 2:59:44is not what qualifications they get from their school but how happy
2:59:44 > 2:59:45they are while they're at school.
2:59:45 > 2:59:48Some will say, though, that good academic qualifications
2:59:48 > 2:59:51will bring about happiness, will lead to a better job
2:59:51 > 2:59:53and a better life?
2:59:53 > 2:59:56Happy children learn better, so there's no conflict between these
2:59:56 > 3:00:01objectives, their complimentary to each other.
3:00:01 > 3:00:03Don't be aggressive, don't be passive, just be assertive.
3:00:03 > 3:00:07Professor Layard want more schools to follow Leigh Academy's example
3:00:07 > 3:00:10and ensure mental health is a key part of the curriculum,
3:00:10 > 3:00:12even if that means less time studying traditional subjects
3:00:12 > 3:00:17like maths and science, which is what happens here.
3:00:17 > 3:00:20The healthy minds curriculum, yes it takes a lesson away
3:00:20 > 3:00:22from the core curriculum but it's important because it makes
3:00:22 > 3:00:30the students have a greater well-being, stronger relationships.
3:00:30 > 3:00:32We've seen a reduction in bullying and higher numbers
3:00:32 > 3:00:34of older students supporting younger students as they gone
3:00:34 > 3:00:36through the course.
3:00:36 > 3:00:37Benefits that should last long into adult life.
3:00:37 > 3:00:41Tim Muffet, BBC News.
3:00:41 > 3:00:43Professor Richard Layard, who you saw in that
3:00:43 > 3:00:46report, joins us now.
3:00:46 > 3:00:55Good morning.Hello.Some people will be wondering, to ensure a child
3:00:55 > 3:01:02putts-mac happiness, is that really the rule of -- the role of a school?
3:01:02 > 3:01:06Schools have a huge effect and our study shows that they have as much
3:01:06 > 3:01:09of an effect on a child putts-mac happiness as they have as much of an
3:01:09 > 3:01:12effect on a child putts-mac happiness as their GCSE results.
3:01:12 > 3:01:18They have as much effect as the parents. Some schools are doing
3:01:18 > 3:01:22really well on happiness and others aren't. We want happiness revolution
3:01:22 > 3:01:28where every school is the happiness of the children as an equal goal to
3:01:28 > 3:01:33its academic performance. Having that embedded in a series of values
3:01:33 > 3:01:36that influence what happens in the school, teaching professional life
3:01:36 > 3:01:41skills like we have just seen a man, and I would say encouraging schools
3:01:41 > 3:01:45to measure the happiness of their children so that they see how well
3:01:45 > 3:01:50they are doing on that as well as GCSEs. If you don't measure it, you
3:01:50 > 3:01:54probably don't treasure it. Professor, all of that makes a lot
3:01:54 > 3:01:59of sense and if it works, that's wonderful, but I'm of a certain age,
3:01:59 > 3:02:02Europe a certain age, I suspect that when you were at school, nobody
3:02:02 > 3:02:06bothered to ask you if you were happy and yet people seemed to get
3:02:06 > 3:02:17by.Well, actually, I went to chapel twice a day and that influenced me a
3:02:17 > 3:02:22lot. That was a serious enquiry into how you could cultivate your mind
3:02:22 > 3:02:28and your thoughts for the good of the world.But you know what I am
3:02:28 > 3:02:36saying...If I could just say, what lacking, and I'm not currently a
3:02:36 > 3:02:40believer, what's lacking is the equivalent in a secular world where
3:02:40 > 3:02:42people are brought face-to-face with the really important things in life,
3:02:42 > 3:02:48things that are really important for them achieving contentment and the
3:02:48 > 3:02:51calm mind and think that are really important for other people, which is
3:02:51 > 3:02:54that we behave well to each other and we get a lot of unhappiness for
3:02:54 > 3:03:01making other people happiness. So I believe strongly that we need a new
3:03:01 > 3:03:06culture in this country where everybody takes as their aim in life
3:03:06 > 3:03:10to create as much happiness in the world as they cam, as little misery.
3:03:10 > 3:03:14The way they go about daily life, the way they choose their careers
3:03:14 > 3:03:19and so on. I think we can have a happier world but we have got to be
3:03:19 > 3:03:23deliberate about it. It's not something that just happens on the
3:03:23 > 3:03:27side.Professor, how do you measure this? You have said we should
3:03:27 > 3:03:32measure peoples happiness or children's happiness. How do we
3:03:32 > 3:03:35quantify happiness because what makes me happy I'd imagine is not
3:03:35 > 3:03:40what makes Charlie happy.Different things make people happier different
3:03:40 > 3:03:45ways but you can measure how happy people are. There are good ways of
3:03:45 > 3:03:48measuring how happy people up.How do you measure it? I'm not being
3:03:48 > 3:03:54facetious.There are a number of questions about different aspects of
3:03:54 > 3:03:59their dealing and they combine in a single index. All you can just ask
3:03:59 > 3:04:03them one question, how satisfied are you with your life? That is a
3:04:03 > 3:04:07question that has been asked of millions of people around the world.
3:04:07 > 3:04:12But a 13-year-old and a height of puberty, peer pressure, exams, they
3:04:12 > 3:04:17are never going to say they are happy or satisfied.There are 25
3:04:17 > 3:04:20questions in the strength and difficulties questionnaire. It has
3:04:20 > 3:04:24been used over and over again and works really well. But I also think
3:04:24 > 3:04:28it's not just a matter of children. We shouldn't just assume that once
3:04:28 > 3:04:31you are an adult, there is nothing you can do about your happiness.
3:04:31 > 3:04:35That's why we have been developing a wonderful cause, and I am sure there
3:04:35 > 3:04:43are others, but this course will prove in the consequence, as we have
3:04:43 > 3:04:47researched it, to improve your happiness by 25% by giving you the
3:04:47 > 3:04:53basic findings of positive psychology, what makes people happy.
3:04:53 > 3:04:57How can they calm their minds through mindfulness. How can they
3:04:57 > 3:05:02achieve greater happiness by putting themselves in the position where
3:05:02 > 3:05:05they are mainly trying to pursue the happiness of other people which is
3:05:05 > 3:05:08ultimately one of the most rewarding things for you and certainly makes
3:05:08 > 3:05:14the best society, because we can have a better society.If there is
3:05:14 > 3:05:18somebody watching now who is feeling miserable. One thought that would
3:05:18 > 3:05:23change their mind set.Take our course called exploring what matters
3:05:23 > 3:05:27and find it under action for happiness, because I do think that
3:05:27 > 3:05:31you how to get a perspective and it's not just one thought, it's the
3:05:31 > 3:05:37whole mindset.Lovely to see you this morning.No, it's a pleasure. I
3:05:37 > 3:05:40keep for the nice questions.
3:05:40 > 3:07:13We'll be speaking to Jethro Tull's lead singer Ian Anderson
3:07:13 > 3:07:20That's it from me and the team. Have a lovely morning. Bye-bye.
3:07:24 > 3:07:26How many people can say they've played alongside the likes
3:07:26 > 3:07:34of Led Zepplin and The Who?
3:07:34 > 3:07:43It happened again. I'll put -- Led Zeppelin and the who?
3:07:43 > 3:07:46The music Jethro Tull created took the band
3:07:46 > 3:07:47from the Lancashire town of Blackpool, to the stage
3:07:47 > 3:07:50of Madison Square Gardens.
3:07:50 > 3:07:57That has tickled you, hasn't it? It has, and it has tickled Ian as
3:07:57 > 3:08:07well.Charlie stayed and Stanley Unwin.A lot of people went remember
3:08:07 > 3:08:16Stanley Unwin but I do. We were just talking about happiness.
3:08:16 > 3:08:21talking about happiness.I say I am at the same today as I was
3:08:21 > 3:08:24yesterday. Continuity is everything at my life.Are you a rather gloomy
3:08:24 > 3:08:32person?On the outside, but on the inside I'm very happy. I entertain
3:08:32 > 3:08:39my cat by playing the flute. He goes doolally forehead.I have got to ask
3:08:39 > 3:08:43you. We were just talking about abuse animals. Are your cats and
3:08:43 > 3:08:49dogs in good health in terms of the right weight and DUP bend the right
3:08:49 > 3:09:02food?Well, -- do you feed them the right food? Well, I do have a cat we
3:09:02 > 3:09:08called fat pants and a dog we call fat as well. So that gives you a
3:09:08 > 3:09:14clue.We know you can play many instruments. Can you play us what
3:09:14 > 3:09:22you play your cat?When I grew up, I wanted to be a guitar player like
3:09:22 > 3:09:27Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton and thought, I had better find another
3:09:27 > 3:09:34instrument when I heard them. You can play the flute nicely or you can
3:09:34 > 3:09:43play nasty leave. I chose the nasty route because it was competing with
3:09:43 > 3:09:47the electric guitar when oh when used the fleet in a rock context.
3:09:47 > 3:09:56Which is what I did. -- when no one was using the flute in a rock
3:09:56 > 3:09:57context.
3:10:07 > 3:10:11# Feeling alone, the army's up the road
3:10:11 > 3:10:19# Salvation a la mode and a cup of tea...
3:10:21 > 3:10:30I love the outfit there. Did you see that?I tried to avert my gaze.We
3:10:30 > 3:10:34mention some of the people you have worked alongside, some interesting
3:10:34 > 3:10:42bands you have been close to.Yes, the peer group is amazing. From the
3:10:42 > 3:10:4870s, there were so many people who came, a creative time for British
3:10:48 > 3:10:52music, a time where we outdid the Americans for a while in coming up
3:10:52 > 3:10:55with exciting new ideas. They called it progressive rock which I am happy
3:10:55 > 3:11:04to be a part of, but prog rock, which is a teething way to describe
3:11:04 > 3:11:11it... Yes, that is me. What a lad. Goodness me.What was the most
3:11:11 > 3:11:17talented outfit you played with?
3:11:18 > 3:11:20talented outfit you played with?As in a band rather than the codpiece?
3:11:20 > 3:11:29I was famous for the codpiece which disappeared from my drawer. My wife
3:11:29 > 3:11:33says she threw it away but I'm convinced I will one day find it on
3:11:33 > 3:11:37eBay.Was there a competition between the bands to the who could
3:11:37 > 3:11:43be most extravagantly dressed?To look most silly. It was a
3:11:43 > 3:11:48light-hearted thing. People just up in those days. It was part of, I
3:11:48 > 3:11:52suppose, selling yourself, but looking back on it that have been
3:11:52 > 3:11:55silly outfits from not so distant times. It's a tradition that goes
3:11:55 > 3:12:01on. Once you have been out there in front of people, you tend to get
3:12:01 > 3:12:07larger than life.When you have been in the business for at least 50
3:12:07 > 3:12:10years, Jethro Tull's 50th anniversary tour, you have been in
3:12:10 > 3:12:14the business for at least 50 years, you are now at the point where you
3:12:14 > 3:12:18can use your name to highlight issues that are important to you.
3:12:18 > 3:12:26Did you -- did I read that you work in churches?Yes, every year I do
3:12:26 > 3:12:29charitable tours to help medieval cathedrals in particular. People
3:12:29 > 3:12:34forget that these are supported only by the public. It is not a state
3:12:34 > 3:12:38religion, so really these great buildings, many of which are a
3:12:38 > 3:12:42thousand years old, to literally keep a roof on, they do require a
3:12:42 > 3:12:46lot of maintenance and upkeep. I do this not as a Christian, although I
3:12:46 > 3:12:51am a supporter of the culture of Christianity, but because I have a
3:12:51 > 3:12:54real love of those buildings. Every year I do two or three cathedrals
3:12:54 > 3:12:59and all the money goes to the cathedral and pays for just two days
3:12:59 > 3:13:04or so of heating and admin. It's a little drop in a very big ocean.
3:13:04 > 3:13:08Ever since you said about playing the flute for your cat, I feel that
3:13:08 > 3:13:17their next album.I have already done that. I did a album called
3:13:17 > 3:13:23Ruby's dance, which is the name of our kitten. It was for the cat
3:13:23 > 3:13:30essentially? In desperation for an album until I had -- and album title
3:13:30 > 3:13:35I had not used before.Thank you very much for being here.
3:13:35 > 3:13:37Jethro Tull's 50th Anniversary tour starts in April.
3:13:37 > 3:13:40That's it from us today.
3:13:40 > 3:13:44If you have been watching since early, you have seen some of these
3:13:44 > 3:13:47fantastic images from where Carroll has been. We will leave you with the
3:13:47 > 3:13:49fantastic. Bye-bye. I.
