0:00:45 > 0:00:47A government minister says two captured members

0:01:18 > 0:01:23we'll get a guided tour behind the scenes.
0:01:23 > 0:01:29And Nick has the weather.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32Good morning, it is the weekend so there is another weather system
0:01:32 > 0:01:37coming into the UK. Rain at some stage for all of us. The chance of
0:01:37 > 0:01:42snow, especially later. And after being less cold today, tomorrow is
0:01:42 > 0:01:44much colder again. I have your full forecast coming

0:01:45 > 0:01:46Good morning.
0:01:46 > 0:01:47First, our main story.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49The Department for International Development is reviewing its work
0:01:49 > 0:01:52with Oxfam following claims the charity covered up the use
0:01:52 > 0:01:54of prostitutes by some of its staff.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56Oxfam has insisted it publicised the action it took
0:01:56 > 0:01:59against the workers, some of whom were fired.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02However, the Times is reporting several went on to work for other

0:02:18 > 0:02:24An advert to the charity giant Oxfam, it got nearly £32 million
0:02:24 > 0:02:26from the UK Department for International Development in the
0:02:26 > 0:02:30last financial year. To be the sexual exploitation scandal, the
0:02:30 > 0:02:38government said last night :
0:02:41 > 0:02:44the allegations surround the behaviour of eight workers here in
0:02:44 > 0:02:50Haiti following the devastating earthquake in 2010. The Times
0:02:50 > 0:02:52newspaper investigation found inappropriate behaviour, including
0:02:52 > 0:02:57the use of prostitutes. The charity has denied a cover-up and says it
0:02:57 > 0:03:01publicly announced an enquiry into the claims in 2011. It said the
0:03:01 > 0:03:05behaviour of some of its staff had been totally unacceptable. But that
0:03:05 > 0:03:09allegations of under age girls may have been involved were not proven.
0:03:09 > 0:03:14For staff members were dismissed and three were allowed to design as part
0:03:14 > 0:03:18of the internal investigation. But today, the Times reports fresh
0:03:18 > 0:03:22claims that Oxfam failed to warn other aid agencies about the staff,
0:03:22 > 0:03:26allowing them to take other jobs in the sector. Do you actually know
0:03:26 > 0:03:32where these people are?I would not know because I have been out of
0:03:32 > 0:03:36Oxfam for five years, you would have to ask somebody else that.There is
0:03:36 > 0:03:39wide acknowledgement that hundreds of Oxfam staff have done no wrong
0:03:39 > 0:03:43but the charity does now face serious questions about its past and
0:03:43 > 0:03:46what it means to its future. Jessica Parker, BBC News.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48The Defence Minister Tobias Ellwood has suggested two members
0:03:48 > 0:03:52of the so-called Islamic State group who are from London should be tried
0:03:52 > 0:03:54at the International Criminal Court in The Hague.
0:03:54 > 0:03:58The BBC understands that the two, who were part of a unit thought
0:03:58 > 0:04:01to have murdered 27 hostages, have been stripped of their British
0:04:01 > 0:04:01citizenship.
0:04:01 > 0:04:07Our political correspondent Chris Mason reports.
0:04:07 > 0:04:12This is Tobias Ellwood who was called a hero after giving first aid
0:04:12 > 0:04:17to PC Keith Palmer, the policeman stabbed to death in the Westminster
0:04:17 > 0:04:22Tower attack last year. He also lost his brother in a terrorist attack in
0:04:22 > 0:04:30Bali in 2002. Now, Mr Elwood, a defence minister, has intervened
0:04:30 > 0:04:34over what will happen over these men, Alexander Katie and El Shafee
0:04:34 > 0:04:38Elsheikh. They were part of the gang suspected of murdering Alan Henning,
0:04:38 > 0:04:43the driver and aid worker from Eccles, and David Haines, a
0:04:43 > 0:04:47long-time aide worker from Perth. In interviews with the times and the
0:04:47 > 0:04:52Daily Telegraph, Tobias Ellwood demands what he calls an agreed
0:04:52 > 0:04:58international process for captured fighters. Guantanamo Bay created a
0:04:58 > 0:05:03new combatant status that bypassed the Geneva Convention, used torture
0:05:03 > 0:05:07and failed to address a wider global jihadist insurgency that continues
0:05:07 > 0:05:11today. He says. Adding:
0:05:23 > 0:05:30last month, President Trump said he was keeping Guantanamo Bay open. A
0:05:30 > 0:05:36decision is yet to be made about what will happen to these two men.

0:05:39 > 0:05:42South Korea's President has held a historic meeting with the sister
0:05:42 > 0:05:44of North Korea's leader, Kim Jong-un.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47The meeting is seen as a direct challenge to the Trump
0:05:47 > 0:05:49administration, which had urged caution rather than engagement
0:05:49 > 0:05:50with the North.
0:05:50 > 0:05:51with the North.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53However, South Korea is hoping to use the Winter Olympics
0:05:53 > 0:05:55to improve diplomatic relations.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57Let's get more on this from our correspondent
0:05:57 > 0:06:02Stephen McDonnell, who's in Pyeongchang.
0:06:02 > 0:06:07Stephen, hello! Interesting that this meeting took place, this
0:06:07 > 0:06:13handshake, a significant?Remarkable events we have seen here over the
0:06:13 > 0:06:19last two days in South Korea, first handshake with South Korea's leader
0:06:19 > 0:06:23in the stadium at the opening ceremony shaking hands with the
0:06:23 > 0:06:26sister of the North Korean leader, that image is going viral around the
0:06:26 > 0:06:30world and will be one of the things we remember from this winter
0:06:30 > 0:06:34Olympics. But then today, this meeting, I mean, US vice president
0:06:34 > 0:06:38Mike Pence came here to the Winter Olympics essentially saying to the
0:06:38 > 0:06:42south do not pure engagement with the north and the government in the
0:06:42 > 0:06:47South he has that advice of its key ally in Washington and today, the
0:06:47 > 0:06:55North Korean leader, his sister, Kim Yo Jong, has, along with a high
0:06:55 > 0:07:00level group of figures from the North Korean government, entered the
0:07:00 > 0:07:07Blue House, met with the South Korean President then had lunch, and
0:07:07 > 0:07:11you would love to know what was said in the meeting, there is some
0:07:11 > 0:07:14speculation whether or not she may have been carrying a message from
0:07:14 > 0:07:18her brother and possibly even an invitation for him to, at some
0:07:18 > 0:07:23point, to North Korea. As I say, historic event unfolding before us
0:07:23 > 0:07:29at the Winter Olympics and it is kind of a geopolitical shift is what
0:07:29 > 0:07:32you are seeing here, really. It isn't that the south is about to
0:07:32 > 0:07:36ditch the US as its key ally but certainly the government of Moon
0:07:36 > 0:07:40Jae-in has stood up to the Trump administration and is taking a very
0:07:40 > 0:07:43different tack with North Korea.It will be very interesting to see the
0:07:43 > 0:07:48next reactions to this meeting. Stephen, thank you. We will of
0:07:48 > 0:07:52course have a look at events taking place as we speak in the winter
0:07:52 > 0:07:54Olympics a little later on with Mike in the sport.

0:07:57 > 0:08:00a protest this morning at a meeting of the General Synod,
0:08:00 > 0:08:03as the church faces criticism over how it deals with complaints.
0:08:03 > 0:08:07It comes as fresh information has been passed to police in the case
0:08:07 > 0:08:10of a bishop accused 60 years after his death of sexual abuse.
0:08:10 > 0:08:15Here's our religion editor Martin Bashir.
0:08:15 > 0:08:20Scholar, priest and champion of the oppressed, George Pell served as
0:08:20 > 0:08:25Bishop of chin just over 30 years until his death in 1958. But his
0:08:25 > 0:08:29reputation was tainted two years ago when it was revealed the Church had
0:08:29 > 0:08:36paid this woman almost £17,000 following claims she had been abused
0:08:36 > 0:08:42by him. Friends of George Pell demanded to know how the Church came
0:08:42 > 0:08:45to believe the complainant and an independent review led by the
0:08:45 > 0:08:49barrister Lord Carlisle described the Church's processes as inadequate
0:08:49 > 0:08:54and too willing to believe the accuser. But while the church
0:08:54 > 0:08:57accepted the report's recommendations, the Archbishop of
0:08:57 > 0:09:01Canterbury Justin Welby said the cloud was left over the reputation
0:09:01 > 0:09:07of Bishop Bell. His comments infuriated supporters of the Bishop.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11During his speech at the Church's ruling Senate yesterday, the
0:09:11 > 0:09:16Archbishop made only the briefest of references to the issue of abuse.
0:09:16 > 0:09:21Our approach to safeguarding these culture change.At Church house
0:09:21 > 0:09:25later this morning a large gathering of survivors will confront members
0:09:25 > 0:09:29of General Synod as they arrived for their final session. The latest
0:09:29 > 0:09:33figures show the Church of England dealt with more than 3000 issues of
0:09:33 > 0:09:41safeguarding during 2016 with 18% involving clergy. Martin Bashir, BBC
0:09:41 > 0:09:42News.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45A second member of staff at the White House has resigned over
0:09:45 > 0:09:46allegations of domestic abuse.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48The former wife of speech writer, David Sorensen, claimed
0:09:48 > 0:09:51he was violent and abusive during their marriage -
0:09:51 > 0:09:52something he denies.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55Earlier, Donald Trump was criticised for publicly praising another aide,
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Rob Porter, who stepped down over accusations of abuse made
0:09:57 > 0:10:03by his two ex-wives.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06A convicted killer who drove his car over a woman as she tried

0:10:24 > 0:10:27Gerry Adams, one of the longest-serving party leaders
0:10:27 > 0:10:30in the world, will step down as president of Sinn Fein today.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33After more than 34 years in the post, he will be replaced
0:10:33 > 0:10:37by Mary Lou McDonald at a specially convened party conference in Dublin.
0:10:37 > 0:10:45Our Ireland correspondent Chris Page reports.
0:10:45 > 0:10:49Mary Lou McDonald is said to be the new leader of Irish Republicanism.
0:10:49 > 0:10:52Her party is the second-biggest in Northern Ireland and third largest
0:10:52 > 0:10:56in the Republic of Ireland. Sinn Fein wants to be in government in
0:10:56 > 0:11:00Stormont and Dublin believes that will help towards the ultimate goal
0:11:00 > 0:11:05of Irish unity. At the years, Republicans tried to achieve that
0:11:05 > 0:11:09through bombs and bullets with Sinn Fein being seen as the political
0:11:09 > 0:11:16wing of the IRA. Gerry Adams always denied being in the paramilitary
0:11:16 > 0:11:19organisation but security sources believe he was a senior IRA man.
0:11:19 > 0:11:23During more than three decades of Sinn Fein president, he led the
0:11:23 > 0:11:27Republican movement away from violence and into the peace process.

0:11:51 > 0:11:55has already indicated she will do things her way.I won't feel Gerry's
0:11:55 > 0:12:02shoes. But the news is that I brought my own.She will be

0:12:30 > 0:12:33A house behind you? A bit of renovating this weekend will keep me
0:12:33 > 0:12:38busy. Yes, it is the weekend. Of course, that is wet weather and the
0:12:38 > 0:12:41forecast. Today, most of us will see rain at some stage
0:12:41 > 0:12:42forecast. Today, most of us will see rain at some stage tomorrow. Apply
0:12:42 > 0:12:46today but much colder tomorrow as well. The showers that come will
0:12:46 > 0:12:51will be increasingly of snow. Some wintry weather around this weekend.
0:12:51 > 0:12:55Let's take a look at the big picture. The satellite image, this
0:12:55 > 0:12:59area of cloud here that has been sliding into the UK as we have been
0:12:59 > 0:13:04through the night, just some across East Anglia. Maybe some early
0:13:04 > 0:13:09sunshine. That is not going to last too long. Outbreaks of rain
0:13:09 > 0:13:17south-east. Scotland will be brightening up this afternoon,
0:13:17 > 0:13:21Northern Ireland will turn dry. More heavy rain coming back. This is the
0:13:21 > 0:13:25picture at three o'clock this afternoon. The odd dot of white into
0:13:25 > 0:13:32Northwest Scotland. A lot of clear whether in Scotland. A few brighter
0:13:32 > 0:13:42spells coming through. Outbreaks of rain, patchy in nature. That is the
0:13:42 > 0:13:46picture this afternoon at three o'clock. Temperature-wise, a bit
0:13:46 > 0:13:50less cold than it has been today that temperatures struggling a
0:13:50 > 0:13:58little bit. Up to 11 or 12 degrees. More Six Nations rugby action today.
0:13:58 > 0:14:03A cloudy and worked there for our matches. More rain to come this
0:14:03 > 0:14:08evening, if you are out and about. Notice the white here. This is rain
0:14:08 > 0:14:15turning to snow to relatively low levels. As the system begins to pull
0:14:15 > 0:14:23away. Maybe gusts up to 60 miles an hour. Less cold overnight. Notice
0:14:23 > 0:14:29those temperatures holding up. Parts of northern England, going into
0:14:29 > 0:14:36Sunday morning. These blobs of white coming in on a north-westerly wind.
0:14:36 > 0:14:40These are snow showers around, maybe some hail as well. Some sunny
0:14:40 > 0:14:49spells. Temperatures will be lower. Especially when the showers move
0:14:49 > 0:14:55through. Some will be crossing further east as we go through the
0:14:55 > 0:15:01day. That sets the scene for a different day tomorrow because it
0:15:01 > 0:15:05will be much, much colder. The charts are some of these snow
0:15:05 > 0:15:08showers to get a light covering in places. A little less cold to some
0:15:08 > 0:15:12of us today but wet weather right back to the Bridge tomorrow.

0:15:13 > 0:15:16you very much.
0:15:16 > 0:15:18It's the blockbuster legal battle that's been engrossing
0:15:18 > 0:15:21Silicon Valley, but in a surprise move Uber has settled its dispute
0:15:21 > 0:15:23with the self-driving car company Waymo.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25The cab-hailing app was accused of stealing trade
0:15:25 > 0:15:26secrets about Waymo's technology.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29Uber denied the accusation, promising to fight it out in front
0:15:29 > 0:15:31of a jury in San Francisco.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33However, all of a sudden - they struck a deal.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36Our North America technology reporter Dave Lee has been
0:15:36 > 0:15:42following each twist and turn.
0:15:42 > 0:15:50This case captivated Silicon Valley, mostly because of this man.
0:15:53 > 0:15:53Morning, Travis!
0:15:53 > 0:15:55Uber's former chief executive Travis Kalanick is expected
0:15:55 > 0:15:57by many to be the very embodiment
0:15:57 > 0:15:58of Silicon Valley's bro culture,
0:15:58 > 0:16:00overconfidence and aggressive ambition.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03In court this week, he was accused of orchestrating a grand plan
0:16:03 > 0:16:06to steal self-driving technology from Google and then put it
0:16:06 > 0:16:08into Uber's own cars.
0:16:08 > 0:16:16Mr Kalanick believes the technology is vital if Uber is to survive.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24Jurors heard how he had meetings with then-Google employee Anthony
0:16:24 > 0:16:31Levandowski.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34It was alleged that Mr Lewandowski stole more than 14,000 alleged
0:16:34 > 0:16:34documents
0:16:34 > 0:16:37and then left Google to set up his own company,
0:16:37 > 0:16:38then he sold it to Uber.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41In a remarkable moment during the trial, the jury was shown
0:16:41 > 0:16:43this scene from the 1989 film Wall Street.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46The prosecution said Travis Kalanick acted like a real-life Gordon Gecko.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50The point is, ladies and gentlemen, that greed, for lack of a better
0:16:50 > 0:16:55word, is good.
0:16:55 > 0:16:56Greed is right.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58But convincing jurors that Mr Kalanick is something
0:16:58 > 0:17:02of a slippery operator was not going to be enough to win the case.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04What the prosecution had to demonstrate was that Uber
0:17:04 > 0:17:07was using the stolen technology, and that was proving
0:17:07 > 0:17:08much more difficult.
0:17:08 > 0:17:13And so, the risk for Google would have been that they were a bully
0:17:13 > 0:17:16and that they went after a competitor in order to suppress
0:17:16 > 0:17:17competition,
0:17:17 > 0:17:19rather than to vindicate their legitimate intellectual
0:17:19 > 0:17:19property rights.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22Conversely the risk for Uber, by continuing, would have been,
0:17:22 > 0:17:27well, what if we lose the whole thing?
0:17:27 > 0:17:30And so, this settlement is perhaps a good result for both sides.
0:17:30 > 0:17:34As part of the deal, Uber agreed to give up 0.34%
0:17:34 > 0:17:38of its company, worth around $245 million.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41In a statement, Mr Kalanick insisted no trade secrets were ever used
0:17:41 > 0:17:44and he said had the trial played out, Uber would have won.
0:17:44 > 0:17:52We will not get the chance to find out if he was right.
0:17:56 > 0:18:04Now it's time for the film review with Jane Hill and Mark Kermode.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16Hello and welcome to the Week in Tech.
0:18:20 > 0:18:22Hello and welcome to The Film Review on BBC News.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25To take us through this week's cinema releases is Mark Kermode.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28So Mark, what do we have this week?
0:18:28 > 0:18:30We have Black Panther, which opens on Tuesday.
0:18:30 > 0:18:33We have Pad Man, based on a true, inspiring story.
0:18:33 > 0:18:39Black Panther, why isn't it opening until Tuesday?
0:18:45 > 0:18:48I presume it is because it will give it a long opening weekend.
0:18:48 > 0:18:52It has been eagerly awaited.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55At the beginning of the film, it is a technologically advanced
0:18:55 > 0:19:03society and they must keep their secrets away
0:19:07 > 0:19:11from the rest of the world in case it falls into the wrong hands.
0:19:11 > 0:19:13Inevitably, to some extent it does.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15The movie pays great attention to character and detail.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18Here is a clip.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28Remote system activated.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30Wait, which side of the road is it?
0:19:30 > 0:19:36Just drive.
0:19:41 > 0:19:47Let's go!
0:19:50 > 0:19:51Look at your suit.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54You have been taking bullets.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02Run around the track.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05Where did he go?!
0:20:11 > 0:20:15Show off.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17That is the most generic stuff.
0:20:17 > 0:20:21There's much more interesting stuff in the film.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23Its strengths are threefold.
0:20:23 > 0:20:27It looks great.
0:20:27 > 0:20:34The world of Wakanda is superbly realised.
0:20:34 > 0:20:35Photographed by Rachel Morrison.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38You really feel that you're in that world and it is well evoked.
0:20:38 > 0:20:41The second thing, it sounds great, everything from the sharp dialogue
0:20:41 > 0:20:44to the superb music keeps the action moving along.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46It really involves you in the characters.
0:20:46 > 0:20:47It is well played.
0:20:47 > 0:20:55It is a really good cast.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04But the most important thing is, you believe
0:21:04 > 0:21:06in the world of the film.
0:21:06 > 0:21:11You believe in the characters and you know and understand
0:21:11 > 0:21:12the characters' motivation.
0:21:12 > 0:21:20I am not a huge comic book fan.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23The thing about this is, it works on its own terms
0:21:23 > 0:21:24as a stand-alone piece.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27There has been a lot written about the importance of this
0:21:27 > 0:21:28movie at this moment.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31But it will only work if the film itself works as a rip-roaring
0:21:31 > 0:21:35piece of entertainment, and it does.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38It is important, but I can look at that and say,
0:21:38 > 0:21:40as well documented on this programme, action films
0:21:40 > 0:21:43are so not my thing, but they are the thing
0:21:43 > 0:21:44of my other half.
0:21:44 > 0:21:48Our debate will be, is it two hours of my life I will never get
0:21:48 > 0:21:51back and she will say, no, we have to go and see it.
0:21:51 > 0:21:55You get the spectacle, all the stuff you want and it does
0:21:55 > 0:21:56look and sound wonderful.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59But you know the characters, you like them and understand them.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02This is a world where there are no gender imbalances you often get.
0:22:02 > 0:22:06Men and women are on an equal playing field.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08When they have the big fight sequences, even
0:22:08 > 0:22:10I understood who everyone was, who they were fighting,
0:22:10 > 0:22:15why they were fighting and what they were trying to do
0:22:15 > 0:22:16with their time.
0:22:16 > 0:22:23As a piece of drama, it is well laid out.
0:22:23 > 0:22:24I really enjoyed it.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26I might have a hope.
0:22:26 > 0:22:27I am normally nudging going, what?
0:22:27 > 0:22:28Who is this person?
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Why are they doing that?
0:22:30 > 0:22:32If I can understand it, anyone can understand it!
0:22:32 > 0:22:33You give me hope.
0:22:33 > 0:22:34Pad Man.
0:22:34 > 0:22:34Sounds unusual?
0:22:34 > 0:22:37It is a man in India who invented a low-cost machine
0:22:37 > 0:22:44for making sanitary pads.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46He's credited with breaking the taboo around menstruation.
0:22:46 > 0:22:54The hears a newlywed young man who doesn't understand
0:22:56 > 0:22:59The story is of a newlywed young man who doesn't understand
0:22:59 > 0:23:04why his new bride spends five days every month out of the house.
0:23:04 > 0:23:08Then he is appalled by the shame and silence in which the women
0:23:08 > 0:23:09around him suffer every month.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11He designs a machine to make low-cost sanitary pads,
0:23:11 > 0:23:14which will not only protect the health of the women
0:23:14 > 0:23:15but provide employment.
0:23:15 > 0:23:19But he does so in a culture in which there is a lot of shame
0:23:19 > 0:23:20around this subject.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23The director of the film said he wanted to make the story
0:23:23 > 0:23:27as accessible as possible.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29He does, it has slapstick comedy, music sequences, laughs,
0:23:29 > 0:23:31romance and tension.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33It is a really joyful and uplifting film.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35It is telling the story, which has its roots
0:23:35 > 0:23:43in a real-life story.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47It is a fictionalised version of a real-life story,
0:23:47 > 0:23:49but it does stick close to the truth.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52It is charmingly done and playing to the widest possible audience,
0:23:52 > 0:23:55and succeeding in taking that story and making it completely accessible,
0:23:55 > 0:23:56and it is charming and uplifting.
0:23:56 > 0:23:57Another hit.
0:23:57 > 0:23:58Fantastic, wonderful story.
0:23:58 > 0:24:02Based on a true story, which is more than can be said
0:24:02 > 0:24:09for 50 Shades Freed.
0:24:09 > 0:24:17This is the final instalment.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19It began as online Twilight fan fiction.
0:24:19 > 0:24:21We do have Twilight to thank for this.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23The story is, having tamed Christian Grey,
0:24:23 > 0:24:25Anastasia must see if she can find independence and happiness
0:24:25 > 0:24:26within their marriage.
0:24:26 > 0:24:27Here is a clip.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30You do want to have kids someday, right?
0:24:30 > 0:24:31Someday, sure.
0:24:31 > 0:24:35You don't really sound sure.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38You know what I am sure about?
0:24:38 > 0:24:40That's great steak.
0:24:40 > 0:24:43Christian...
0:24:43 > 0:24:45Do you not want to have kids?
0:24:45 > 0:24:48Of course.
0:24:48 > 0:24:52One day, just not now.
0:24:52 > 0:25:00I'm not ready to share you with anyone.
0:25:02 > 0:25:03He doesn't want children.
0:25:03 > 0:25:07I can tell her that now.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09There is a narrative arc...
0:25:09 > 0:25:12It is easy to sneer at the Fifty Shades movies
0:25:12 > 0:25:19because they are not very good.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21The first one, they tried to do something interesting,
0:25:21 > 0:25:28but it was too restricted.
0:25:28 > 0:25:33They tried to change the script.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35The second one by James Foley stuck to the ear-scraping
0:25:35 > 0:25:36dialogue of the source.
0:25:36 > 0:25:39It is badly written, the actors are doing their best
0:25:39 > 0:25:40with pretty intolerable dialogue.
0:25:40 > 0:25:48James Foley is directing on autopilot.
0:25:48 > 0:25:52He's an interesting director but ge has been given this as a safe
0:25:52 > 0:25:53pair of hands.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56It ends up looking like a promo simply for a glamorous
0:25:56 > 0:25:58lifestyle for fast cars and designer apartments.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00Although there is some kinky fetishism, it is very peripheral.
0:26:00 > 0:26:04What the film is interested in, is look at that private jet.
0:26:04 > 0:26:12It is a film about possessions and about those kind of aspirations.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15In the end it ends up looking like a commercial or pop promo.
0:26:15 > 0:26:19It makes you look back to the days of Nine And A Half Weeks and think
0:26:19 > 0:26:27wow, what a ground-breaking, Citizen Kane-like movie that was.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36I don't know why people get angry because it is playing to a certain
0:26:36 > 0:26:38audience who are devoted to it.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41It will pack the audiences out on the first weekend.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43I am clearly not the target audience.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46As a cinemagoer, the first one was the only one that was vaguely
0:26:46 > 0:26:48interesting and the next two are just dull.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50Fantastically unremarkable.
0:26:50 > 0:26:51You can't criticise the cast.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54If anybody gave you that dialogue to read, Laurence Olivier
0:26:54 > 0:26:56would struggle to deliver some of those lines, which
0:26:56 > 0:27:04are on the level of, is everything all right?
0:27:05 > 0:27:07Can I get you a latte?
0:27:07 > 0:27:07LAUGHTER.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09I think I will sleep Black Panther.
0:27:09 > 0:27:13Have you seen Phantom Thread again, the last time we met
0:27:13 > 0:27:14you had seen it four times.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16No, I have not seen it again.
0:27:16 > 0:27:19I love Johnny Greenwood's score.
0:27:19 > 0:27:21He's been Oscar-nominated.
0:27:21 > 0:27:29People say they don't like the central character.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34You are not meant to like him, he is meant to be difficult.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36Lesley Manville steals the show.
0:27:36 > 0:27:39I think it is Paul Thomas Anderson's best film since Punch Drunk Love
0:27:39 > 0:27:41and they make a cracked romance double bill.
0:27:41 > 0:27:49I would watch Phantom Thread again but alongside Punch Drunk Love.
0:27:50 > 0:27:51There is something about it.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54There was a debate whether the costumes he designs
0:27:54 > 0:28:00are deliberately not very good.
0:28:00 > 0:28:04Everybody says he is a fabulous dress designer but the first thing
0:28:04 > 0:28:07he designs has somebody dressed up like the Queen of Hearts.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09But that is kind of the point, I like it.
0:28:09 > 0:28:17It's certainly a talking point.
0:28:17 > 0:28:24The DVD, Loving Vincent.
0:28:24 > 0:28:28It reminds me of our conversation last week when I said can you watch
0:28:28 > 0:28:32Blade Runner on a DVD, it is the same about Loving Vincent.
0:28:32 > 0:28:34It is an extraordinary achievement in technical terms.
0:28:34 > 0:28:42And oil painted animated movie, as far as I know the world's first.
0:28:44 > 0:28:47The narrative is a bit flimsy, it is about going back
0:28:47 > 0:28:51to find out what happened in Vincent Van Gogh's life.
0:28:51 > 0:28:53I have seen it on the big screen and the small screen
0:28:53 > 0:29:00and it has the same...
0:29:00 > 0:29:07It is hypnotising, like watching paintings you know moving around.
0:29:07 > 0:29:10Slightly odd, but stunning.
0:29:10 > 0:29:14If you have it on DVD, you can go back and watch it again
0:29:14 > 0:29:17and marvelling at the hours of work that must have gone
0:29:17 > 0:29:25into creating it.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29Six years of painting to create the film.
0:29:29 > 0:29:29Astonishing.
0:29:29 > 0:29:30Thank you.
0:29:30 > 0:29:30An interesting week.
0:29:30 > 0:29:34A quick reminder, you can find all the film news and reviews
0:29:34 > 0:29:37across the BBC on the website.
0:29:37 > 0:29:40All our previous programmes are on the iPlayer as well.
0:29:40 > 0:29:43That's it for this week, enjoy your cinemagoing.
0:29:43 > 0:29:46Goodbye.
0:29:59 > 0:29:59Good morning.
0:29:59 > 0:30:07Here's a summary of today's main stories from BBC News.
0:30:11 > 0:30:13The government has condemned the "appalling abuse of vulnerable
0:30:13 > 0:30:16people in Haiti" and says Oxfam has serious questions to answer over
0:30:16 > 0:30:19claims the charity covered up the use of prostitutes by some
0:30:19 > 0:30:20of its staff.
0:30:20 > 0:30:23Oxfam insists it publicised the action it took against the aid
0:30:23 > 0:30:25workers involved, some of whom were fired.
0:30:25 > 0:30:28However, the Times is reporting several went on to work for other
0:30:28 > 0:30:35charities, who were unaware of their past behaviour.

0:30:39 > 0:30:43State group from London should be tried at the International Criminal
0:30:43 > 0:30:47Court in The Hague. The BBC understands that Alexanda Kotey and
0:30:47 > 0:30:52El Shafee Elsheikh whose unit is thought to have melted Mervyn 30
0:30:52 > 0:30:55hostages have been stripped of their British citizens. -- murdered more
0:30:55 > 0:31:02than. They are yet to receive a request from any country to hand
0:31:02 > 0:31:02them over.
0:31:02 > 0:31:05South Korea's president has held a historic meeting with the sister
0:31:05 > 0:31:07of North Korea's leader Kim Jong-un.
0:31:07 > 0:31:10The meeting is seen as a direct challenge to the Trump
0:31:10 > 0:31:12administration, which had urged caution rather than engagement
0:31:12 > 0:31:13with the North.
0:31:13 > 0:31:15However, South Korea is hoping to use the Winter Olympics
0:31:15 > 0:31:17to improve diplomatic relations.
0:31:17 > 0:31:21A second member of staff at the White House has resigned over
0:31:21 > 0:31:24allegations of domestic abuse.
0:31:24 > 0:31:27The former wife of speech writer, David Sorensen, claimed
0:31:27 > 0:31:29he was violent and abusive during their marriage -
0:31:29 > 0:31:30something he denies.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33Earlier, Donald Trump was criticised for publicly praising another aide,
0:31:33 > 0:31:35Rob Porter, who stepped down over accusations of abuse made
0:31:35 > 0:31:40by his two ex-wives.
0:31:40 > 0:31:44A convicted killer who drove his car over a woman as she tried
0:31:44 > 0:31:48to stop him stealing her handbag has gone on the run after he was freed
0:31:48 > 0:31:49from prison on licence.
0:31:49 > 0:31:52Mark Woolley was jailed for life at the Old Bailey in 2001
0:31:52 > 0:31:54for the murder of costume designer Elizabeth Sherlock
0:31:54 > 0:31:56and was released in November.
0:31:56 > 0:31:59Scotland Yard says he was last seen at a probation meeting
0:31:59 > 0:32:02in East London 10 days ago.
0:32:02 > 0:32:05Gerry Adams, one of the longest serving party leaders in the world,
0:32:05 > 0:32:08will step down as President of Sinn Fein today.
0:32:08 > 0:32:11After more than 34 years in the post, he will be replaced
0:32:11 > 0:32:14by Mary Lou McDonald at a specially convened party conference in Dublin.
0:32:14 > 0:32:17Her first major challenge will be in Northern Ireland,
0:32:17 > 0:32:20where talks to restore the devolved government are due to conclude next
0:32:20 > 0:32:27week.
0:32:27 > 0:32:33Those of our main stories, it is 630 AM, bikies here and we have a full
0:32:33 > 0:32:38day of Olympic action. So much to come. The skier Loni is coming up,
0:32:38 > 0:32:42combining two different types of cross-country skiing, the classic
0:32:42 > 0:32:48technique and freestyle. Annika Taylor represent us in that. A long
0:32:48 > 0:32:54way, imagine the pain. It has been under way, lots happening, not such
0:32:54 > 0:32:58good news for the Brits in slopestyle. Billy Morgan said that
0:32:58 > 0:33:03he felt headwind coming into one of his tricks he thought oh no. After
0:33:03 > 0:33:07that psychologically it is difficult to get back. This is the
0:33:07 > 0:33:12snowboarding event with the amazing jumps? That is right. There is still
0:33:12 > 0:33:16big air and there are still chances for the Brits to make amends.
0:33:16 > 0:33:19So on this first proper day, it wasn't to be
0:33:19 > 0:33:21for Britain's Billy Morgan, Jamie Nicholls and Rowan Coultas,
0:33:21 > 0:33:23in the snowboarding slopestyle.
0:33:23 > 0:33:26In strong headwinds, they all failed to qualify for tomorrow's final.
0:33:26 > 0:33:29Overall today could be the start of something special to Team GB going
0:33:29 > 0:33:34for a record medal telly in these games. Later this morning, we speak
0:33:34 > 0:33:37to -- skater Elise Christie goes for her medals.
0:33:37 > 0:33:40Joe Lynskey rounds up the action so far.
0:33:40 > 0:33:44On snow and ice British success stands out in the memory, it is
0:33:44 > 0:33:51really expected and it makes medals more special. But Intel chain, Team
0:33:51 > 0:33:56GB face a new kind of expectation, carrying the flag in South Korea is
0:33:56 > 0:34:00Lizzie Arnold, laying the foundations. -- Pyeongchang. The
0:34:00 > 0:34:05gold in Sochi inspired the best metal talent since the 20s, they
0:34:05 > 0:34:09want to go further, five medals or more would make it their best ever
0:34:09 > 0:34:13performance. A groundbreaking results have intensified the focus.
0:34:13 > 0:34:17Today Elise Christie takes to the ice, she is a world champion now,
0:34:17 > 0:34:21more used to victory.Our sport is supposed to be boring, you are not
0:34:21 > 0:34:26supposed to sit in seconds over me you know like I want to go out there
0:34:26 > 0:34:30and fight for that win. I might not do it right you know that is what I
0:34:30 > 0:34:34will be trying to do so sure.The first British interest came on the
0:34:34 > 0:34:37snowboard slopes, and replace the destruction, the team practice their
0:34:37 > 0:34:40trips on a giant airbag might hear there is no soft landing. Jamie
0:34:40 > 0:34:44Nicholls was on the edge of a qualifying place, he just pushed too
0:34:44 > 0:34:49far. A surprise 60 in Sochi but not in this event.That is how it goes
0:34:49 > 0:34:52sometimes in competition, just have obviously wasn't my day and right
0:34:52 > 0:34:57now it looks like I might just sat on the finals by one spot! Right
0:34:57 > 0:35:01now!I would be gutted. This sport is about artistry in the air,
0:35:01 > 0:35:05computer game ambition. Billy Morgan's made his name with big
0:35:05 > 0:35:11tricks on you Tube. He had to catch the eye to make the final.
0:35:11 > 0:35:19COMMENTATOR: No, Billy! The disappointment tells!For him, or
0:35:19 > 0:35:23three and Rowan Coultas, the big air competition is a chance for
0:35:23 > 0:35:27redemption but from here the campaign turns to Elise Christie's
0:35:27 > 0:35:34campaign, she is the speed skater Boeing the superstardom. Plenty more
0:35:34 > 0:35:37to come, do not be disappointed by the early failure to qualify in the
0:35:37 > 0:35:38slopestyle.
0:35:38 > 0:35:40Now back home, and a mouthwatering contest at Twickenham
0:35:40 > 0:35:42where England take on Wales.
0:35:42 > 0:35:44England, remember, are bidding to win the title three years
0:35:44 > 0:35:45in a row.
0:35:45 > 0:35:47They dominated against Italy last week.
0:35:47 > 0:35:54But Wales were mightily impressive too, in their win against Scotland.
0:35:54 > 0:36:02It is a big occasion for everyone involved but for us, it is the next
0:36:02 > 0:36:08game, the next game on our journey, the next game to develop and prove
0:36:08 > 0:36:12and focus on performance and I tell you what, if we get our performance
0:36:12 > 0:36:14right, we will get a result.
0:36:14 > 0:36:19You are not playing a venue, give up playing an occasion, the game and
0:36:19 > 0:36:24the guys who are involved in the park and 80,000 fans will make the
0:36:24 > 0:36:28occasion but past results in the past performances will be a little.
0:36:28 > 0:36:30The first game of the day is in Dublin, where Ireland
0:36:30 > 0:36:31take on Italy.
0:36:31 > 0:36:35The Irish beat France last weekend thanks to a late drop kick,
0:36:35 > 0:36:36from Jonny Sexton, and skipper Rory Best,
0:36:36 > 0:36:43says the euphoria of that moment has boosted the team all week.
0:36:44 > 0:36:53Just amazing how to kick a football and 82.5 minutes or whatever it was
0:36:53 > 0:36:57of rugby in the context metaphor can change the context of how you feel
0:36:57 > 0:37:01and the mood and what they say, getting back home in the 60s is a
0:37:01 > 0:37:02big thing for us.
0:37:02 > 0:37:05It's also round two of the women's six nations.
0:37:05 > 0:37:07England host Wales at the Twickenham Stoop
0:37:07 > 0:37:09as they chase a second consecutive grand slam title.
0:37:09 > 0:37:12And in the evening game, Scotland will be looking
0:37:12 > 0:37:14for their first win of the tournament against France
0:37:14 > 0:37:15at Scotstoon.
0:37:15 > 0:37:18In domestic rugby, Bath are up to third place in the Premiership,
0:37:18 > 0:37:20thanks to a convincing win over Northampton.
0:37:20 > 0:37:23Ross Batty with the last of three tries in the final minutes.
0:37:23 > 0:37:2532-9 the score.
0:37:25 > 0:37:28And Joy Neville became the first woman to referee a Pro14 match,
0:37:28 > 0:37:30taking charge of Ulster against Southern Kings,
0:37:30 > 0:37:34and she saw Ulster dominate the game, winning 59 points to 10,
0:37:34 > 0:37:40with Craig Gilroy scoring three of their nine tries.
0:37:40 > 0:37:43There was a thrilling finish to the Super League match
0:37:43 > 0:37:44between Wakefield and Salford.
0:37:44 > 0:37:46After a last-minute try from Salford, Gareth O'Brien had
0:37:46 > 0:37:50to land this kick to earn his side a point but it drifted just wide,
0:37:50 > 0:37:57so Wakefield won by 14 points to 12.
0:37:57 > 0:38:00There's no doubt about the big game of the day
0:38:00 > 0:38:03in the Premier League - the North London derby at Wembley,
0:38:03 > 0:38:05with Tottenham and Arsenal both chasing a top four finish
0:38:05 > 0:38:07and Champions League football next season.
0:38:07 > 0:38:10For Arsene Wenger, there's more than local pride at stake
0:38:10 > 0:38:18with his side four points behind Spurs in the table.
0:38:20 > 0:38:24I know he has been watching his games over 20 years that the Isis is
0:38:24 > 0:38:28an opportunity to come back on the table, but the Champions League spot
0:38:28 > 0:38:31that he is the priority.
0:38:31 > 0:38:40Last season, we were above them and, but it isn't to be focused on them
0:38:40 > 0:38:45but I think the me, it is not going forward from me, both teams have the
0:38:45 > 0:38:50quality and the powerful and the quality to win games.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52Celtic's defence of the Scottish Cup continues today -
0:38:52 > 0:38:55they take on Partick Thistle in the fifth round.
0:38:55 > 0:38:58We told you that all three British competitors in the snowboard
0:38:58 > 0:39:00slopestyle had failed to make the final.
0:39:00 > 0:39:01We'll here's how it should be done.
0:39:01 > 0:39:04This is Canada's Max Parrow, who qualified top
0:39:04 > 0:39:09of the 12 finalists.
0:39:09 > 0:39:14Are you going to do it? In yes, me, in the studio.
0:39:14 > 0:39:15Big double cork 12-60.
0:39:15 > 0:39:16Front side 10-80.
0:39:16 > 0:39:20Triple cork 14-40.
0:39:20 > 0:39:29What do the numbers mean? No. You have me. Is it a rotation or the
0:39:29 > 0:39:37number of...? If it is a triple cork, 14- 40, is it? The scale of
0:39:37 > 0:39:40difficulty may be? Should we find out?
0:39:40 > 0:39:42Big Air is really Parrow's speciality -
0:39:42 > 0:39:45he hasn't been beaten in that for a year and according
0:39:45 > 0:39:46to the commentators, his slopestyle has suffered
0:39:46 > 0:39:50as a result - no sign of that today.
0:39:50 > 0:39:55Look at that. It is amazing. That is what we struggled with in a
0:39:55 > 0:40:00headwind, the final landing. Absolutely flawless. Lovely the way
0:40:00 > 0:40:04everyone watching when you are competing, they all really
0:40:04 > 0:40:08appreciated. It is a family, they all support each other and despite
0:40:08 > 0:40:13the disappointment, they all support each other even in defeat.
0:40:13 > 0:40:16It's already being billed as the biggest Winter Olympic Games
0:40:16 > 0:40:19yet - there are almost 3,000 athletes from 92 countries competing
0:40:19 > 0:40:21So where do you put them all up?
0:40:21 > 0:40:24We sent BBC Sport's Radzi Chinyanganya to check out
0:40:24 > 0:40:32the facilities at the athletes' village in Pyeongchang.
0:40:34 > 0:40:38Each and every one of those flags represent the country competing here
0:40:38 > 0:40:42in the Winter Olympics and this is the Olympic athletes village and we
0:40:42 > 0:40:48have come to take a look around. Genuinely no idea what goes on here,
0:40:48 > 0:40:54all I know is it's as recreation area. OK, this is my kind of place,
0:40:54 > 0:40:58we have Paul, table hockey, basically one conclusion- doesn't
0:40:58 > 0:41:01matter what country you come from, entertainment is a universal
0:41:01 > 0:41:06language. Once you have to have your arm twisted to do things and I think
0:41:06 > 0:41:10the massage chair, you just have to take one to the team. OK. I have
0:41:10 > 0:41:15never sat in one of these before and I could get used to this. It has
0:41:15 > 0:41:22started. It is good, it is pressing into my... O! This is... Let's never
0:41:22 > 0:41:31move from here! With the temperatures being officially
0:41:31 > 0:41:35Baltic, repletion calories is inside here, the athlete dining hall. Can't
0:41:35 > 0:41:41go in because I am not an athlete but it smells very good! We are in
0:41:41 > 0:41:45part of the gym which is the cardio focused area and this is where the
0:41:45 > 0:41:49athlete ultimately cannot really get much stronger off it they can
0:41:49 > 0:41:53certainly make sure they keep things ticking over, ready for the most
0:41:53 > 0:41:58important of their lives. When the GB athletes aren't competing or
0:41:58 > 0:42:04indeed training to compete, they are inside here, the Team GB HQ and we
0:42:04 > 0:42:09have been invited to go inside. It is please do not disturb, that is
0:42:09 > 0:42:13for a good reason because the bobsled guys have had a nap, are
0:42:13 > 0:42:17inside there, I have been told it is messy, it is lived in and
0:42:17 > 0:42:24straightaway you have seen a man his boxes. Gentleman. How are we doing?
0:42:24 > 0:42:30Good to see you. How you feeling, your first Winter Olympics?Anyone
0:42:30 > 0:42:33who is at their first, second, third Olympics is feeling incredible right
0:42:33 > 0:42:39now.Your second Olympics and Britain's the fastest man?That is
0:42:39 > 0:42:42nice, second Olympics, it is exciting is the first, you want to
0:42:42 > 0:42:47get out there, it has been such a buildup.It is no question about the
0:42:47 > 0:42:50team spirit in here, you obviously get on.Great talks in his sleep so
0:42:50 > 0:42:58we get on in the day...Can I see your helmet? This is the helmet you
0:42:58 > 0:43:01would be wearing when you are indeed...When you see me rocking to
0:43:01 > 0:43:06the block and sliding down, I will be wearing this bad way.You will be
0:43:06 > 0:43:09wearing the most performance top in your life, what is going to a head?
0:43:09 > 0:43:14I feel good, happy, we compete against these guys year-round soap
0:43:14 > 0:43:19for us it is thought of that we want to win all year but this is the big
0:43:19 > 0:43:21one.
0:43:21 > 0:43:26Well, that is what it is like behind the scenes. It is always nice to get
0:43:26 > 0:43:30a sneaky little book. And the athletes themselves, you always
0:43:30 > 0:43:33think it is very glamorous. You know? There is something basic about
0:43:33 > 0:43:39it. Basic conditions. They other two works I suppose it keeps them
0:43:39 > 0:43:43focused. We can show you how Pyeongchang looks at the moment, a
0:43:43 > 0:43:47lot has been said about how cold it is there and we have our
0:43:47 > 0:43:51correspondent Stephen McDonald there looking at the geopolitical backdrop
0:43:51 > 0:43:54happening at Pyeongchang, we have had a significant meeting between
0:43:54 > 0:43:58the leader of South Korea and the sister of the leader of North Korea
0:43:58 > 0:44:02yesterday and also the game is getting under way and they will all
0:44:02 > 0:44:07be competing there. Timeout is 643 a and B were watching Breakfast. Our
0:44:07 > 0:44:11main
0:44:11 > 0:44:13The government says it's reviewing its relationship
0:44:13 > 0:44:16with Oxfam, after claims the charity covered up a scandal
0:44:16 > 0:44:17involving its staff in Haiti.
0:44:17 > 0:44:20The Defence Minister has suggested two British members of a so-called
0:44:20 > 0:44:23Islamic State cell known as "The Beatles" should be tried
0:44:23 > 0:44:24at The Hague.
0:44:24 > 0:44:26Also coming up in the programme.
0:44:26 > 0:44:28It's a scam that's tricked vulnerable and elderly people out
0:44:28 > 0:44:31of thousands of pounds - we'll hear how fraudsters
0:44:31 > 0:44:38are pretending to be the taxman.
0:44:43 > 0:44:47Time to talk to Nick and find out what is happening with the weather.
0:44:47 > 0:44:57Some snow, some sleet, more cold weather, it's winter. For some of
0:44:57 > 0:45:05us, a little cold. A weekend of changeable weather on the way. We
0:45:05 > 0:45:09will see some rain, most of us, at some stage today. And then things
0:45:09 > 0:45:15are going to brighten up. Tomorrow will be much colder compared to
0:45:15 > 0:45:20today. It will be colder winds by the time we get to tomorrow. This is
0:45:20 > 0:45:31is coming in. This area of cloud. Parts of East Anglia, south-east
0:45:31 > 0:45:40England starting the day. As we take outbreaks of rain south eastwards.
0:45:40 > 0:45:45For Scotland and Northern Ireland, it will be drier for the time. If
0:45:45 > 0:45:51you're out and about this afternoon, this is the UK picture. A lot of
0:45:51 > 0:45:56clear whether in Scotland. The sun is going to be shining. There is the
0:45:56 > 0:46:02next area of rain.
0:46:02 > 0:46:06next area of rain. A few brighter spells. Some outbreaks of rain
0:46:06 > 0:46:11around. As for the temperatures today, a cold start across the
0:46:11 > 0:46:21eastern side of the UK. Temperature is slow to recover.
0:46:21 > 0:46:24is slow to recover. Another day of Six Nations rugby action.
0:46:24 > 0:46:30Temperature is not as low as they have been. Quite a blustery picture
0:46:30 > 0:46:46as well. North Wales, gusts around 60 miles an hour. Not just across
0:46:46 > 0:46:54the hills. Parts of Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales, tonight,
0:46:54 > 0:47:03some snow and ice coming in to tomorrow morning. This is part two
0:47:03 > 0:47:12of the weekend. Coming from the north-westerly direction. It will be
0:47:12 > 0:47:21colder tomorrow in the blustery wind. That is snow. There will be
0:47:21 > 0:47:26some snow showers as well.
0:47:26 > 0:47:26wind. That is snow. There will be some snow showers as well. Colder
0:47:26 > 0:47:36tomorrow. Thanks very much, we will see you soon.
0:47:36 > 0:47:42We look at whether
0:47:42 > 0:47:43-- Now it's time for Click.
0:47:43 > 0:47:46This week they're looking into whether there could be a bump
0:48:05 > 0:48:08This is how a self driving cars sees the world.
0:48:08 > 0:48:14Lidar sensors feed the car with a continuous 360 degree
0:48:14 > 0:48:17view of its surroundings, along with crucial depth information.
0:48:17 > 0:48:23It is the key technology for a successful autonomous drive.
0:48:23 > 0:48:26And this week in the US, a mighty court case has
0:48:26 > 0:48:28begun which may take this key away from Uber,
0:48:28 > 0:48:33stalling its progress towards the self driving revolution.
0:48:33 > 0:48:41It all revolves around this man, Antony Lewandowski, who left
0:48:45 > 0:48:47Google's autonomous spin-off Waymo and joined Uber a couple
0:48:47 > 0:48:55of years ago.
0:49:08 > 0:49:10But, undeterred, Uber continues to look to the future
0:49:10 > 0:49:13of transportation, which in just a few years might look very
0:49:13 > 0:49:16different to the way it looks now.
0:49:17 > 0:49:23Even self driving cabs will get stuck in jams,
0:49:23 > 0:49:24so this is Uber's vision.
0:49:24 > 0:49:28When you're tight for time, go by air.
0:49:28 > 0:49:32It's ambitious and so is the timescale.
0:49:32 > 0:49:37Our goal is by 2020 to launch our first demonstrator flights in Dallas
0:49:37 > 0:49:41and LA to show that as a concept this can work and then work to scale
0:49:41 > 0:49:43by 2023 and 2025,
0:49:43 > 0:49:46so we're providing commercial flights to a lot of our riders,
0:49:46 > 0:49:50giving them a new way to travel.
0:49:50 > 0:49:53One of Uber's partners, Bell helicopters, has showed off
0:49:53 > 0:49:56its design for a four seater cabin, which could include a pilot.
0:49:56 > 0:50:00Here's their 360 view, with the alternative
0:50:00 > 0:50:02setup, four seats, four passengers.
0:50:02 > 0:50:07The aircraft, like our cars, would navigate automatically.
0:50:07 > 0:50:14It's electric with a range of about 60 miles, they say.
0:50:14 > 0:50:16We've seen other designs for air taxis of late,
0:50:16 > 0:50:22including this Chinese firm Ehang's 184, which recently shuttled actual
0:50:22 > 0:50:26people in this autopiloted drone.
0:50:26 > 0:50:30And this air cab by German firm Volocopter, which uses 18 rotors
0:50:30 > 0:50:36and nine separate battery packs, just in case.
0:50:36 > 0:50:42While Nasa and the FAA are working on new traffic control
0:50:42 > 0:50:46systems for these types of craft in the US, it's the FAA that
0:50:46 > 0:50:48will have to be convinced self piloting
0:50:48 > 0:50:52electric air cabs are safe.
0:50:52 > 0:50:56We will ask the applicants to come forward with their engineering
0:50:56 > 0:50:58proposals of what tests will they propose to do
0:50:58 > 0:51:02so that we can ensure that if there's a fire or a short
0:51:02 > 0:51:05or if something goes wrong during a flight that they can safely
0:51:05 > 0:51:09land and get away from that aircraft before it does damage to the people
0:51:09 > 0:51:14onboard, or on the ground, for that matter.
0:51:14 > 0:51:16So will it work?
0:51:16 > 0:51:24Here is Uber's case study.
0:51:24 > 0:51:27We've landed in LA, traffic is a nightmare and a taxi would take
0:51:27 > 0:51:31us 80 minutes, whereas the air trip to the sky
0:51:31 > 0:51:35port, plus a small transfer, is less than half an hour and Uber
0:51:35 > 0:51:38said it could end up costing about the same amount.
0:51:38 > 0:51:41OK, there are many reasons why self-flying electric taxis sound
0:51:41 > 0:51:47like a good idea, but when you're saving less than one hour,
0:51:47 > 0:51:54Uber's dream will need to run smoothly to deliver.
0:51:54 > 0:52:00Apologies, Mr Simmons, very busy airspace right now.
0:52:00 > 0:52:02It's blade to blade up there!
0:52:02 > 0:52:10Unfortunately the weather's closing in, Mr Simmons.
0:52:18 > 0:52:21I'm not quite sure we're going to get you in tonight.
0:52:21 > 0:52:23Really sorry.
0:52:23 > 0:52:25We're just cleaning out the cabin.
0:52:25 > 0:52:28You're two kilos over, I'm afraid.
0:52:28 > 0:52:29Lose the penguin?
0:52:29 > 0:52:37Ah, we're just recharging your taxi at the moment, Mr Simmons.
0:52:44 > 0:52:45It will be a while.
0:52:45 > 0:52:53At least that last one shouldn't be too much of a problem.
0:52:57 > 0:53:04Uber have teamed up with EV specialists Charge Point
0:53:04 > 0:53:07and are predicting a four-minute juice up time.
0:53:07 > 0:53:08That would be special!
0:53:08 > 0:53:11Sorry, you're running 17.5 seconds late and the pilots had to cancel.
0:53:11 > 0:53:19Please do book again via the app.
0:53:22 > 0:53:26But perhaps the most challenging part of this project is to get us,
0:53:26 > 0:53:28the public, comfortable with the idea of taking
0:53:28 > 0:53:29an air taxi.
0:53:29 > 0:53:31When we think about consumer option of new technologies,
0:53:31 > 0:53:34this is not a problem that is novel or unique to travel.
0:53:34 > 0:53:37We saw this with elevators when they first came out
0:53:37 > 0:53:40and actually in order to get consumers comfortable with it
0:53:40 > 0:53:42an elevator operator would remain in the elevator,
0:53:42 > 0:53:45even when it was made electronic, just to give consumers confidence.
0:53:45 > 0:53:48We are going to be doing the same with autonomous vehicles now,
0:53:48 > 0:53:51as we have safety drivers staying in the car, explaining
0:53:51 > 0:53:54the technology to riders, and the same will be
0:53:54 > 0:54:01true with our pilots.
0:54:01 > 0:54:04We will be launching pilots who will serve not
0:54:04 > 0:54:08only as the operators of the flight but as an ambassador to get riders
0:54:08 > 0:54:09comfortable with this new mode of transport,
0:54:09 > 0:54:12so soon enough they'll forget about its novelty and be back
0:54:12 > 0:54:16to texting and making other use of their time while in transit.
0:54:16 > 0:54:19Just like the Uber-Waymo court case over who owns the specialist
0:54:19 > 0:54:22tech that makes self-driving cars work, the creation of the flying cab
0:54:22 > 0:54:25will no doubt have its own dogfight in court.
0:54:25 > 0:54:26Perhaps that's another reason why Uber's keen
0:54:26 > 0:54:30to get in early.
0:54:30 > 0:54:32Flying high isn't fun for everyone, though.
0:54:32 > 0:54:39Acrophobia, or fear of heights, is one of the most common phobias,
0:54:39 > 0:54:41but this virtual reality therapy hopes to help.
0:54:41 > 0:54:41Sweating again.
0:54:41 > 0:54:44Chan here can confidently fly a plane, but when it comes
0:54:44 > 0:54:46to heights in general it's a different story.
0:54:46 > 0:54:47Oh, no...
0:54:47 > 0:54:49Oh, no, I've got to move!
0:54:49 > 0:54:57Come back, come back.
0:54:58 > 0:54:59No, I can't do it.
0:54:59 > 0:55:00Come back.
0:55:00 > 0:55:08I can't move while I'm out there.
0:55:13 > 0:55:15I couldn't go up a ladder.
0:55:15 > 0:55:16Just couldn't go up a ladder.
0:55:16 > 0:55:18I couldn't go over high bridges.
0:55:18 > 0:55:21If I drove to Wales I would go the long way, instead
0:55:21 > 0:55:23of going over the bridge.
0:55:23 > 0:55:25I just don't like open heights.
0:55:25 > 0:55:32But I can jump on an aeroplane and fly and aeroplane.
0:55:32 > 0:55:34That's a completely different environment, in my head
0:55:34 > 0:55:34Oh, God!
0:55:34 > 0:55:36So, how are you feeling?
0:55:36 > 0:55:36Um...anxious, sweaty.
0:55:36 > 0:55:37Nervous.
0:55:37 > 0:55:39Even though you've been through the process
0:55:39 > 0:55:41of doing this before?
0:55:41 > 0:55:49Yeah.
0:55:50 > 0:55:53You still feel the same level of anxiety, or is
0:55:53 > 0:55:54it dramatically reduced?
0:55:54 > 0:56:02I'm way more confident.
0:56:08 > 0:56:11I've got much more confidence than when I did it the first time.
0:56:11 > 0:56:13I was on holiday with some friends.
0:56:13 > 0:56:16They were going on the rollercoasters and I talked
0:56:16 > 0:56:19about this VR thing we were doing and they said I should be
0:56:19 > 0:56:21able to go on the ride.
0:56:21 > 0:56:24So I watched my family and friends go round a couple
0:56:24 > 0:56:27more times and then thought, well, I can do this.
0:56:27 > 0:56:30If you look to your left, you'll see a basket of light balls.
0:56:30 > 0:56:33What I need you to do is throw the light balls down
0:56:33 > 0:56:34into the atrium.
0:56:34 > 0:56:38I think VR can treat pretty much any type of fear or phobia.
0:56:38 > 0:56:42It might be a fear of a cat or spiders or dogs.
0:56:42 > 0:56:45What VR can enable you to do is relearn that actually
0:56:45 > 0:56:47you are safe in those situations you fear.
0:56:47 > 0:56:50The beauty of VR is in fact that disconnect.
0:56:50 > 0:56:53When you're there, you know you're not really in that environment
0:56:53 > 0:56:56and that enables you to do things you wouldn't normally do
0:56:56 > 0:56:57in the real world.
0:56:57 > 0:57:00But all the scientific data shows that learning you make in VR does
0:57:00 > 0:57:02transfer into the real world.
0:57:02 > 0:57:05In this programme you are going to try a series of tasks.
0:57:05 > 0:57:08Earlier this month it was announced the UK's National Health Service has
0:57:08 > 0:57:11invested this idea of using virtual reality therapy to battle severe
0:57:11 > 0:57:14mental health issues are by putting sufferers in a virtual environment
0:57:14 > 0:57:16they would struggle within the real world.
0:57:16 > 0:57:18This immersive approach, plus the availability of virtual
0:57:18 > 0:57:26therapists, could more readily provide more therapy to more people
0:57:30 > 0:57:33it was certainly an immersive experience. We get how this could
0:57:33 > 0:57:41work and take you to a certain level. In this programme, you are
0:57:41 > 0:57:47going to try a series of tasks.
0:57:47 > 0:57:50Earlier this month it was announced the UK's National Health Service has

0:58:15 > 0:58:18therapists, could more readily provide more therapy to more people
0:58:18 > 0:58:20at a lower cost.
0:58:20 > 0:58:23At the heart of a lot of health problems are difficulties
0:58:23 > 0:58:26with interacting with the world and with VR we can put
0:58:26 > 0:58:29people back in the situations that trouble them and coach them
0:58:29 > 0:58:32in the best ways to think, feel and behave in those situations.
0:58:32 > 0:58:35We've got to test it and trial it and make sure things work,
0:58:35 > 0:58:39but the potential is enormous.
0:58:39 > 0:58:47That was Lara looking at how doctors may use virtual reality. The
0:58:47 > 0:58:52full-length version is waiting for you. Thank you to watching and we
0:58:52 > 0:58:59will see you soon.

1:00:19 > 1:00:22The Government condemns the "appalling abuse of vulnerable
1:00:22 > 1:00:24people in Haiti" and says the charity Oxfam has serious
1:00:24 > 1:00:28questions to answer.
1:00:28 > 1:00:30The Department for International Development says
1:00:30 > 1:00:32it is reviewing its work with the organisation.
1:00:32 > 1:00:40The charity denies claims of a cover up.
1:00:45 > 1:00:48Good morning, it's Saturday the 10th of February.
1:00:48 > 1:00:51Also this morning:
1:00:51 > 1:00:53A government minister says two captured members
1:00:53 > 1:00:56of the British Islamic State cell, nicknamed 'the Beatles' should be
1:00:56 > 1:01:00considered for trial at the Hague.

1:01:12 > 1:01:15In sport, it's wipe-out for the Brits on day one
1:01:15 > 1:01:17of the Olympics.
1:01:17 > 1:01:21All three of the medal hopes in the snowboard slopestyle try
1:01:21 > 1:01:23spectacular moves but fail to make the final
1:01:23 > 1:01:28That's Billy Morgan falling on his final run.
1:01:28 > 1:01:33And all eyes in terms of great written's hopes are on Elise
1:01:33 > 1:01:36Christie who goes on her first heat in the speedskating later. I'll be
1:01:36 > 1:01:38live with the latest.
1:01:38 > 1:01:40And Nick has the weather.
1:01:40 > 1:01:41Good morning.
1:01:41 > 1:01:44It's the weekend so there is another weather system
1:01:44 > 1:01:46coming into the UK.
1:01:46 > 1:01:49Rain at some stage today for all of us.
1:01:49 > 1:01:50The chance of snow, especially later.
1:01:50 > 1:01:53And after being less cold today, tomorrow is much colder again.
1:01:53 > 1:01:57I've got your full forecast coming up.
1:01:57 > 1:01:59First, our main story.
1:01:59 > 1:02:02The government has condemned the "appalling abuse of vulnerable
1:02:02 > 1:02:05people in Haiti" and says Oxfam has serious questions to answer over
1:02:05 > 1:02:08claims the charity covered up the use of prostitutes by some
1:02:08 > 1:02:09of its staff.
1:02:09 > 1:02:12Oxfam insists it publicised the action it took against the aid
1:02:12 > 1:02:15workers involved, some of whom were fired.
1:02:15 > 1:02:18However, the Times is reporting several went on to work for other
1:02:18 > 1:02:21charities, who were unaware of their past behaviour.
1:02:21 > 1:02:28Jessica Parker reports.
1:02:33 > 1:02:35We need dreams. Without dreams we get nothing.
1:02:35 > 1:02:37An advert from the charity giant Oxfam.
1:02:37 > 1:02:40It got nearly £32 million from the UK Department
1:02:40 > 1:02:42for International Development in the last financial year.
1:02:42 > 1:02:44But amid the sexual exploitation scandal, the government said
1:02:44 > 1:02:47last night:
1:02:54 > 1:02:58The allegations surround the behaviour of aid workers
1:02:58 > 1:03:01here in Haiti, following the devastating earthquake in 2010.
1:03:01 > 1:03:04A Times newspaper investigation found inappropriate behaviour,
1:03:04 > 1:03:08including the use of prostitutes.
1:03:08 > 1:03:11The charity has denied a cover-up and said it publicly announced
1:03:11 > 1:03:13an enquiry into the claims in 2011.
1:03:13 > 1:03:18It said the behaviour of some of its staff had been totally
1:03:18 > 1:03:21unacceptable, but that allegations of underage girls may have been
1:03:21 > 1:03:23involved were not proven.
1:03:23 > 1:03:26Four staff members were dismissed and three were allowed to resign
1:03:26 > 1:03:29as part of the internal investigation.
1:03:29 > 1:03:32But today, the Times reports fresh claims that Oxfam failed to warn
1:03:32 > 1:03:36other aid agencies about the staff, so allowing them to take other jobs
1:03:36 > 1:03:38in the sector.
1:03:38 > 1:03:40Do you actually know where these people are?
1:03:40 > 1:03:41I don't know!
1:03:41 > 1:03:42Do you know that they're not working?
1:03:42 > 1:03:46I would not know because I've been out of Oxfam for five years.
1:03:46 > 1:03:48You would have to ask somebody else that.
1:03:48 > 1:03:51There is wide acknowledgement that hundreds of Oxfam staff have done no
1:03:51 > 1:03:55wrong, but the charity does now face serious questions about its past
1:03:55 > 1:03:57and what that means for its future.
1:03:57 > 1:04:05Jessica Parker, BBC News.
1:04:07 > 1:04:11The North Korean leader has invited the South Korean president to meet
1:04:11 > 1:04:14him at the first available time.
1:04:14 > 1:04:17The meeting is seen as a direct challenge to the Trump
1:04:17 > 1:04:19administration, which had urged caution rather than engagement
1:04:19 > 1:04:22with the North.
1:04:22 > 1:04:24The Defence Minister Tobias Ellwood has suggested two members
1:04:24 > 1:04:28of the so-called Islamic State group who are from London should be tried
1:04:28 > 1:04:30at the International Criminal Court in The Hague.
1:04:30 > 1:04:34The BBC understands that the two, who were part of a unit thought
1:04:34 > 1:04:37to have murdered 27 hostages, have been stripped of their British
1:04:37 > 1:04:37citizenship.
1:04:37 > 1:04:40Our political correspondent Chris Mason reports.
1:04:40 > 1:04:43This is Tobias Ellwood.
1:04:43 > 1:04:47He was called a hero after giving first aid to PC Keith Palmer,
1:04:47 > 1:04:49the policeman stabbed to death in the Westminster terror
1:04:49 > 1:04:50attack last year.
1:04:50 > 1:04:53He also lost his brother in a terrorist attack
1:04:53 > 1:04:57in Bali in 2002.
1:04:57 > 1:05:00Now, Mr Ellwood, a defence minister, has intervened over what will happen
1:05:00 > 1:05:06over these men - Alexanda Kotey and El Shafee Elsheikh.
1:05:06 > 1:05:10They were part of a gang suspected of murdering Alan Henning,
1:05:10 > 1:05:14a driver and aid worker from Eccles, and David Haines, a long-time aide
1:05:14 > 1:05:18worker from Perth.
1:05:18 > 1:05:23In interviews with the Times and the Daily Telegraph,
1:05:23 > 1:05:26Tobias Ellwood demands what he calls an agreed international process
1:05:26 > 1:05:34for captured fighters.
1:05:35 > 1:05:40Guantanamo Bay created a new combatant status that I passed the
1:05:40 > 1:05:44Geneva Convention, used to torture and failed to address a wider global
1:05:44 > 1:05:46jihadist insurgency that continues today. He added:
1:05:57 > 1:06:01Last month, President Trump said he was keeping Guantanamo Bay open.
1:06:01 > 1:06:04A decision is yet to be made about what will happen
1:06:04 > 1:06:06to Alexanda Kotey and El Shafee Elsheikh.
1:06:06 > 1:06:10Chris Mason, BBC News.
1:06:10 > 1:06:13Survivors of sexual abuse in the Church of England are holding
1:06:13 > 1:06:16a protest this morning at a meeting of the General Synod,
1:06:16 > 1:06:19as the church faces criticism over how it deals with complaints.
1:06:19 > 1:06:23It comes as fresh information has been passed to police in the case
1:06:23 > 1:06:26of a bishop accused 60 years after his death of sexual abuse.
1:06:26 > 1:06:29Here's our religion editor Martin Bashir.
1:06:29 > 1:06:31Scholar, priest and champion of the oppressed.
1:06:31 > 1:06:35George Bell served as Bishop of Chichester for 30 years,
1:06:35 > 1:06:39until his death in 1958.
1:06:39 > 1:06:42But his reputation was tainted two years ago when it was revealed
1:06:42 > 1:06:45the Church had paid this woman almost £17,000 following claims
1:06:45 > 1:06:53she had been abused by him.
1:06:53 > 1:06:57Friends of Bell demanded to know how the Church came to believe
1:06:57 > 1:07:03the complainant, and an independent review led by the barrister
1:07:03 > 1:07:05Lord Carlisle described the Church's processes as "inadequate" and "too
1:07:05 > 1:07:09willing to believe the accuser".
1:07:09 > 1:07:13But while the church accepted the report's recommendations,
1:07:13 > 1:07:16the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, said a cloud was left
1:07:16 > 1:07:18over the reputation of Bishop Bell.
1:07:18 > 1:07:21His comments infuriated supporters of the Bishop.
1:07:21 > 1:07:24During his speech at the Church's ruling synod yesterday,
1:07:24 > 1:07:26the Archbishop made only the briefest of references
1:07:26 > 1:07:28to the issue of abuse.
1:07:28 > 1:07:34Our approach to safeguarding needs culture change.
1:07:34 > 1:07:37At Church House later this morning, a large gathering of survivors
1:07:37 > 1:07:39will confront members of General Synod as they arrive
1:07:39 > 1:07:42for their final session.
1:07:42 > 1:07:44The latest figures show that the Church of England dealt
1:07:44 > 1:07:47with more than 3,000 issues of safeguarding during 2016,
1:07:47 > 1:07:48with 18% involving clergy.
1:07:48 > 1:07:56Martin Bashir, BBC News.
1:07:57 > 1:08:01A second member of staff at the White House has resigned over
1:08:01 > 1:08:02allegations of domestic abuse.
1:08:02 > 1:08:04The former wife of speech writer, David Sorensen, claimed
1:08:04 > 1:08:06he was violent and abusive during their marriage,
1:08:06 > 1:08:07something he denies.
1:08:07 > 1:08:10Earlier, Donald Trump was criticised for publicly praising another aide,
1:08:10 > 1:08:13Rob Porter, who stepped down over accusations of abuse made
1:08:13 > 1:08:19by his two ex-wives.
1:08:19 > 1:08:23A convicted killer who drove his car over a woman as she tried
1:08:23 > 1:08:31to stop him stealing her handbag has gone on the run after he was freed
1:08:32 > 1:08:33from prison on licence.
1:08:33 > 1:08:36Mark Woolley was jailed for life at the Old Bailey in 2001
1:08:36 > 1:08:38for the murder of costume designer Elizabeth Sherlock
1:08:38 > 1:08:40and was released in November.
1:08:40 > 1:08:43Scotland Yard says he was last seen at a probation meeting
1:08:43 > 1:08:44in East London ten days ago.
1:08:44 > 1:08:47Gerry Adams, one of the longest-serving party leaders
1:08:47 > 1:08:50in the world, will step down as president of Sinn Fein today.
1:08:50 > 1:08:53After more than 34 years in the post, he will be replaced
1:08:53 > 1:08:56by Mary Lou McDonald at a specially convened party conference in Dublin.
1:08:56 > 1:08:58Our Ireland correspondent Chris Page reports.
1:08:58 > 1:09:01Mary Lou McDonald is set to be the new leader of Irish
1:09:01 > 1:09:01Republicanism.
1:09:01 > 1:09:04Her party is the second-biggest in Northern Ireland and the third
1:09:04 > 1:09:07largest in the Republic of Ireland.
1:09:07 > 1:09:10Sinn Fein wants to be in government in Stormont and Dublin,
1:09:10 > 1:09:13and it believes that will help towards its ultimate goal
1:09:13 > 1:09:17of Irish unity.
1:09:17 > 1:09:20But for years, Republicans tried to achieve that aim through bombs
1:09:20 > 1:09:23and bullets with Sinn Fein being seen as the political wing
1:09:23 > 1:09:28of the IRA.
1:09:28 > 1:09:30Gerry Adams always denied being in the paramilitary
1:09:30 > 1:09:37organisation but security sources believe he was a senior IRA man.
1:09:37 > 1:09:40During more than three decades as Sinn Fein president,
1:09:40 > 1:09:42he led the Republican movement away from violence
1:09:42 > 1:09:44and into the peace process.
1:09:44 > 1:09:46How are you doing? Nice to meet you.
1:09:46 > 1:09:49Mary Lou McDonald is from a very different background.
1:09:49 > 1:09:52She grew up in an affluent suburb of Dublin and has no direct
1:09:52 > 1:09:53experience of the Northern Ireland conflict.
1:09:53 > 1:09:55Although not particularly well known outside Ireland,
1:09:55 > 1:09:59she has had a leading role in the Irish parliament for several
1:09:59 > 1:10:01years and has become known for robust performances.
1:10:01 > 1:10:04She was the only candidate to put her name forward to succeed
1:10:04 > 1:10:07Gerry Adams and has already indicated she will do
1:10:07 > 1:10:07things her way.
1:10:07 > 1:10:09I won't fill Gerry's shoes.
1:10:09 > 1:10:16But the news is that I brought my own.
1:10:16 > 1:10:18She will be installed as leader at a special party conference
1:10:18 > 1:10:21in Dublin today, but her first major challenge will be in Belfast
1:10:21 > 1:10:24where talks to restore the devolved government are expected to reach
1:10:24 > 1:10:26a crunch point next week.
1:10:26 > 1:10:33Chris Page, BBC News.
1:10:33 > 1:10:36It's New York Fashion Week, but it's not just models
1:10:36 > 1:10:44and stylists who are trying to look their best.
1:10:46 > 1:10:50This is the New York Pet Fashion Show.
1:10:50 > 1:10:54It saw the catwalk turn into a dog walk, as these rather fashionable
1:10:54 > 1:10:57canines showed off their outfits.
1:10:57 > 1:11:00and presumably their owners are dressed up brother elaborately as
1:11:00 > 1:11:02well. How about that one?
1:11:02 > 1:11:10That's just frightening... The few words spring to mind. There we go.
1:11:10 > 1:11:19Practical out where for dogs. -- outdoor wear. We will have more on
1:11:19 > 1:11:25the developments coming out of North and South Korea later and also some
1:11:25 > 1:11:28of the action from the Winter Olympics. That's coming up later.
1:11:28 > 1:11:31Children must have access to online sex education because they are too
1:11:31 > 1:11:33embarrassed to discuss relationships in the classroom.
1:11:33 > 1:11:36That's according to a group of charities.
1:11:36 > 1:11:38Their warning comes as the Government faces growing
1:11:38 > 1:11:41calls to roll out compulsory lessons in schools.
1:11:41 > 1:11:44So how would it work in practice?
1:11:44 > 1:11:51CBBC and Radio one presenter Katie Thistleton has written
1:11:51 > 1:11:54an advice book for teenagers and joins us in the studio,
1:11:54 > 1:11:57and Catherine Barker from The Family Stability Network
1:11:57 > 1:11:58is in our London newsroom.
1:11:58 > 1:12:03Thank you to joining us. You are talking to people on your radio
1:12:03 > 1:12:07show, anonymously or not people are sending in questions about for
1:12:07 > 1:12:16example sex. And a lot of the time I imagine people are embarrassed about
1:12:16 > 1:12:20saying and asking, exposing their ignorance of the subject.Certainly.
1:12:20 > 1:12:27We do different topics every week on BBC Radio one. We might do skin one
1:12:27 > 1:12:31week, relationships another and certainly when we do sex we probably
1:12:31 > 1:12:38get the most calls
1:12:38 > 1:12:44get the most calls and texts, mostly anonymous.It begs the question how
1:12:44 > 1:12:48in-school anyone could feel comfortable, or children could feel
1:12:48 > 1:12:51comfortable, about the in the hole to speak about this openly.I
1:12:51 > 1:12:56certainly never did when we did sex education. We had a box we could put
1:12:56 > 1:13:01a question into, but I remember when the teacher read out my question I
1:13:01 > 1:13:05went bright red and one probably knew it was me anyway. So you don't
1:13:05 > 1:13:09feel comfortable and I think that's why people learn about sex from
1:13:09 > 1:13:12other places.Dealing with some of the practicalities, this notion of
1:13:12 > 1:13:18getting good sex advice online, that's a little bit of a minefield,
1:13:18 > 1:13:21isn't it? The notion of searching for something.There are inherently
1:13:21 > 1:13:28risks. Yes. People are definitely already looking online. We've done
1:13:28 > 1:13:34recent research and 58% of 14 to 17 -year-olds said, we are already
1:13:34 > 1:13:39looking online for relationship information. So they are looking and
1:13:39 > 1:13:42they are finding all sorts of unhelpful and unhealthy information
1:13:42 > 1:13:49and that's why we believe the family stability network, along with our
1:13:49 > 1:13:53partner organisations, it is an important there is good information
1:13:53 > 1:14:00available. We run a website called Status and that serves 16 to 25
1:14:00 > 1:14:05-year-olds, it is getting very popular. We are reaching 140,000
1:14:05 > 1:14:10people a week and we find they really want to know more and they
1:14:10 > 1:14:13have Sony questions. I will just pick up on the point that Katie just
1:14:13 > 1:14:22made. We had a piece recently, a blog, I think it was called the time
1:14:22 > 1:14:26when I discovered sex in real life isn't like born. We had a massive
1:14:26 > 1:14:30take-up on that article and people were reading it for five minutes,
1:14:30 > 1:14:35which in for young people is a long time. But they didn't share read on
1:14:35 > 1:14:39social media. It was a private space for private consumption, but we've
1:14:39 > 1:14:42got to give them stuff because that's where they are looking.What
1:14:42 > 1:14:46does this look like? You go to school and have sex education and
1:14:46 > 1:14:51your teacher says, right, you can go online and go here and this will
1:14:51 > 1:15:00help you because?What we want to do is we know that 77% of 14 to
1:15:00 > 1:15:03-year-olds 17 say that they want to have lasting relationships in adult
1:15:03 > 1:15:09life and 72% say they want to be taught about it at school, but we
1:15:09 > 1:15:12know that teachers are under tremendous pressure to do so much
1:15:12 > 1:15:16and covers so many topics, that while the classroom absolutely is so
1:15:16 > 1:15:20important to be a place where you can actually discuss things in the
1:15:20 > 1:15:25right way, with the right resources, you don't want to just leave it
1:15:25 > 1:15:29there. You want young people to be able to go and look somewhere else.
1:15:29 > 1:15:34You know they are going to, so to be able to say, try this website or
1:15:34 > 1:15:37that website, this is where you can get really solid evidence -based
1:15:37 > 1:15:41information, then we could make a massive difference. I'm healthy
1:15:41 > 1:15:46relationships in our society are causing such dreadful impacts on our
1:15:46 > 1:15:49general health, mental health in particular that we really need to be
1:15:49 > 1:15:57able to offer them the information they are looking for.
1:15:59 > 1:16:02Are their age sensitive visit -- sensitivities about this? Is there
1:16:02 > 1:16:14an age that is too young?There is, when it comes to gory details. In my
1:16:14 > 1:16:20Burke, it is ten, 11, 12 -year-olds. We've covered confusion about
1:16:20 > 1:16:25sexuality. Puberty.
1:16:25 > 1:16:28We've covered confusion about sexuality. Puberty. Whereas on the
1:16:28 > 1:16:33life hacks, we will be speaking to university students. A 16-year-old
1:16:33 > 1:16:41would think they have very little in common with a 10-year-old. I think
1:16:41 > 1:16:46it is about signposting those websites. If they are getting the
1:16:46 > 1:16:51right information, still better than them watching pornography or getting
1:16:51 > 1:16:55the wrong information. They are going to find out about these
1:16:55 > 1:17:00things. Like Catherine said, something I am passionate about. Not
1:17:00 > 1:17:05only teaching people to have safe sex, but teaching them how to be
1:17:05 > 1:17:12happy as well. We need to teach them about consent and sex, low
1:17:12 > 1:17:18self-esteem, things like that. Those are the questions that people don't
1:17:18 > 1:17:23ask in classrooms. That's why they come to us, or on the radio, they go
1:17:23 > 1:17:34on line to find the answers.Thank you very much for joining us.
1:17:37 > 1:17:40you very much for joining us. It's certainly not a day to leap out of
1:17:40 > 1:17:42bed and think, I'm going
1:17:42 > 1:17:42certainly not a day to leap out of bed and think, I'm going to have a
1:17:42 > 1:17:47brisk walk. You might pull the curtains back slightly and lay down
1:17:47 > 1:17:59a little bit longer. Some rain at some stage today.
1:17:59 > 1:18:01some stage today. Tomorrow, it will be colder tomorrow. The showers
1:18:01 > 1:18:05coming through tomorrow will be increasingly sleet, snow, hail as
1:18:05 > 1:18:12well. More of a wintry flavour. Let's take a look at that weather
1:18:12 > 1:18:19system -- weather system coming into the UK. This area of cloud, which is
1:18:19 > 1:18:24the weather system coming in. Maybe a bit of sunshine for a time this
1:18:24 > 1:18:31morning before the cloud increases. Outbreaks of rain spreading.
1:18:31 > 1:18:36Clearing from Scotland and Northern Ireland for a time. If you are out
1:18:36 > 1:18:39and about this afternoon, let me show you things at three o'clock
1:18:39 > 1:18:46when we see so much. There will be some sunshine. Just the odd shower
1:18:46 > 1:18:55dotted about the north-west. Drier for a time.
1:18:55 > 1:18:58for a time. Still some patchy outbreaks of rain to the East
1:18:58 > 1:19:04Midlands and East Anglia. It is a cold start across the eastern side
1:19:04 > 1:19:11of the UK. Just around seven degrees. Parts of south-west
1:19:11 > 1:19:18England, 12 degrees. Quite a strong south-westerly wind. Here is how it
1:19:18 > 1:19:19is looking at
1:19:25 > 1:19:29for England and Wales overnight, that wind will get stronger. Maybe
1:19:29 > 1:19:34up to 60 miles per hour. More wet weather, turning to snow at
1:19:34 > 1:19:42relatively low levels. Snow showers following where it will turn frosty
1:19:42 > 1:19:48and icy going into tomorrow morning. A little less cold tomorrow night.
1:19:48 > 1:19:53For part two of the weekend tomorrow, coming from a
1:19:53 > 1:19:57north-westerly direction. It is a colder direction tomorrow. It is
1:19:57 > 1:20:06going to feel colder. There is more clear whether around. Wintry showers
1:20:06 > 1:20:09tomorrow, sleet, snow, hail and temperatures topping out lower
1:20:09 > 1:20:16compared to today. When these showers move through, it will be
1:20:16 > 1:20:20even colder. Colder still when you factor in the wind. There isn't
1:20:20 > 1:20:20anything warmer
1:20:20 > 1:20:22factor in the wind. There isn't anything warmer in the forecast.
1:20:22 > 1:20:28Thank you very much.
1:20:28 > 1:20:31Fraudsters are regularly coming up with new ways to rip people off,
1:20:31 > 1:20:34and there are warnings this morning about the latest phone scam
1:20:34 > 1:20:37which is conning people out of thousands of pounds.
1:20:37 > 1:20:39Vulnerable and elderly people are being targeted by a caller
1:20:39 > 1:20:42who tells them they owe money to the taxman.
1:20:42 > 1:20:44They're then told they can pay it off using iTunes vouchers.
1:20:44 > 1:20:46It may sound strange, but people seem to be
1:20:46 > 1:20:47falling for it.
1:20:47 > 1:20:49Here to tell us more is Angela MacDonald
1:20:49 > 1:20:54from Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs.
1:20:54 > 1:21:00Do you want to take us through? You got examples of people have ended up
1:21:00 > 1:21:07out of pocket.
1:21:07 > 1:21:11out of pocket.Someone will ring pretending to be HMRC, saying you
1:21:11 > 1:21:15are lost tax and if you don't play it straightaway, we will be taking
1:21:15 > 1:21:21you to court. We will ask you to -- they will ask you to tap attack --
1:21:21 > 1:21:25pay of the tax bill by purchasing some iTunes vouchers and reading out
1:21:25 > 1:21:31the redemption code and then that fraudster will buy goods with those
1:21:31 > 1:21:36iTunes codes or sell them on. The fraud is untraceable and people are
1:21:36 > 1:21:41losing thousands of pounds.What numbers are we talking about?Action
1:21:41 > 1:21:47Ford tell us about 1500 people have fallen victim to this fraud. The
1:21:47 > 1:21:52average person is over 65 and the average loss is about £1150 although
1:21:52 > 1:21:59very sadly in recent weeks, we heard of 181-year-old gentleman lost
1:21:59 > 1:22:08£20,000 to this scan.The numbers are horrific. As someone
1:22:08 > 1:22:13representing HMRC, let's get this message out loud and clear. HMRC
1:22:13 > 1:22:17will not call someone and say, you need to pay your tax bill over the
1:22:17 > 1:22:23phone now.We may well ring you and ask you to pay your tax bill over
1:22:23 > 1:22:28the phone but never in iTunes vouchers.If you ring someone up and
1:22:28 > 1:22:33say, you are lost tax, what should you offer in terms of identification
1:22:33 > 1:22:38so that someone can know that it is you? What information should you
1:22:38 > 1:22:44already have?We will ring you and ask you to identify, to make sure we
1:22:44 > 1:22:53are speaking to the right person.
1:22:53 > 1:22:56are speaking to the right person. If it is not that person, put the phone
1:22:56 > 1:23:01down, look up our telephone number. The problem is, con artists are good
1:23:01 > 1:23:13at this. Watches the end of the phone no?They should know, about
1:23:13 > 1:23:18your tax situation. They shouldn't be asking general questions. They
1:23:18 > 1:23:23should know exactly what kind of person you are. They should
1:23:23 > 1:23:27certainly know what your current income is. You should be to ask
1:23:27 > 1:23:32enough questions to know you are talking to the right person. We will
1:23:32 > 1:23:40always be will about ringing you out of the blue.People will be
1:23:40 > 1:23:46thinking, how do they get these numbers in the first place? Is there
1:23:46 > 1:23:51information coming from HMRC on which the fraudsters are basing
1:23:51 > 1:23:56those calls? Are they calling someone, saying they have
1:23:56 > 1:24:06information.It is completely random.
1:24:09 > 1:24:14random. Electoral roll information, which gives your personal address,
1:24:14 > 1:24:17your phone numbers, the information that 70 people Place on line about
1:24:17 > 1:24:22their personal circumstances, you can go on to somewhere like
1:24:22 > 1:24:26LinkedIn, find out what is this you are in. A tremendous amount of
1:24:26 > 1:24:30information is available but an awful lot of this stuff is charts.
1:24:30 > 1:24:37You may well have had a text or an email saying we are your tax refund,
1:24:37 > 1:24:45which is usually a phishing email. On average, those fraudsters will
1:24:45 > 1:24:52manage to find a person.You mentioned it is sometimes the case.
1:24:52 > 1:24:57They will make a phone call to the individual. Somebody gets a phone
1:24:57 > 1:25:02call.
1:25:03 > 1:25:06call. Legitimately, the person responding says what? Prove to me
1:25:06 > 1:25:11you are what you say you are?How do you do that? I would suggest that
1:25:11 > 1:25:18you should be asking specific information to your tax and your
1:25:18 > 1:25:22circumstances. If that person is genuine on the other end of the
1:25:22 > 1:25:28phone, they will not be making general questions.Putting the phone
1:25:28 > 1:25:33down on HMRC, would that get you in trouble?If you explain the fact
1:25:33 > 1:25:37that you are anxious about who we say we are, we will be happy for you
1:25:37 > 1:25:42to put the phone down and ring is back, that will not be a problem.
1:25:42 > 1:25:45When this is happening, it's happening enough for you to come on
1:25:45 > 1:25:49the programme and talk about it, what do you then say to retailers?
1:25:49 > 1:25:55One gentleman, he went to Tesco. This is where you can buy iTunes
1:25:55 > 1:25:59vouchers. What about the relationship you have with
1:25:59 > 1:26:05retailers? Do you say to them, we need to work together and say we
1:26:05 > 1:26:15should be observant of people? It's not a normal thing. £500 of iTunes
1:26:15 > 1:26:27vouchers from Tesco?Just recently, I've written to the chief
1:26:27 > 1:26:28I've written to the chief executives and raised awareness with staff
1:26:28 > 1:26:34about this kind of scan. Actually, a couple of colleagues in Tesco's have
1:26:34 > 1:26:39already intervened with a particular customer when a customer wanted to
1:26:39 > 1:26:45buy £2000 worth of vouchers. That person ask the questions and that
1:26:45 > 1:26:49sale didn't go through. We are getting massive support from the
1:26:49 > 1:26:55supermarkets. I've already had reply from ASDA.Really interesting
1:26:55 > 1:27:04talking to you. If in doubt, put the phone down. You will not get in
1:27:04 > 1:27:08trouble.
1:27:08 > 1:27:10How should we pay for our car parks?
1:27:10 > 1:27:13In Liverpool personal trainers, professional photographers and tour
1:27:13 > 1:27:16guides will soon have to pay around £150 for a permit
1:27:16 > 1:27:19if they want to use the city's recreational areas.
1:27:19 > 1:27:21At a time of squeezed local authority budgets and rising
1:27:21 > 1:27:24council tax, should businesses who profit from using the spaces
1:27:24 > 1:27:27contribute, or does this go against the principle of open
1:27:27 > 1:27:28access for all?
1:27:28 > 1:27:34Claire Fallon is in Princes Park in Liverpool this morning.
1:27:34 > 1:27:39It is a chilly morning. I'm not sure how many job as you have seen but
1:27:39 > 1:27:47this is a space for all.Already, one jogger in one dog walker. As the
1:27:47 > 1:27:51sun goes up this morning, we will see this park in all its glory. Even
1:27:51 > 1:27:58if the weather is not particularly glorious this morning. The pet --
1:27:58 > 1:28:02the principle behind our publicly owned parks is that it is free for
1:28:02 > 1:28:07the public to use. Keeping them looking good does cost money.
1:28:07 > 1:28:15Keeping them safe as well. Money has been an issue to local councils in
1:28:15 > 1:28:23recent years. Finding the same things as they did before. Here in
1:28:23 > 1:28:28Liverpool, they are thinking about bringing in this permit system. This
1:28:28 > 1:28:31does not apply to job is out on a Saturday morning, people having a
1:28:31 > 1:28:39picnic in the park. It does apply to people who make money in the parks.
1:28:39 > 1:28:45It would apply for people who are personal trainers, people running
1:28:45 > 1:28:53Boot Camp sessions. We should say there are a couple of exemptions.
1:28:53 > 1:28:58Dog walkers will not be charged, nor will people doing park runs
1:28:58 > 1:29:06sessions. We will talk to some of the people who are affected.
1:29:06 > 1:29:08Coming up in the next half hour.
1:29:08 > 1:29:10After the amazing spectacle of the opening ceremony,
1:29:10 > 1:29:13the real competition has begun - we'll speak to Olympic figure
1:29:13 > 1:29:21skating champion, Robin Cousins, about who to look out for.
1:30:07 > 1:30:09Hello, this is Breakfast, with Naga Munchetty and Charlie
1:30:09 > 1:30:10Stayt.
1:30:10 > 1:30:16Here's a summary of today's main stories from BBC News.
1:30:16 > 1:30:19The North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has invited the South Korean
1:30:19 > 1:30:22president to visit him at the earliest date possible.
1:30:22 > 1:30:25The invitation was given by the sister of the North Korean
1:30:25 > 1:30:31leader during a historic meeting between the two sides in Seoul.
1:30:31 > 1:30:35Lets get more from our correspondent, who is in Pyeongchang
1:30:35 > 1:30:42this morning. We saw the handshake during the Olympic ceremony, which
1:30:42 > 1:30:49everyone thought was significant in itself. But what happens now is
1:30:49 > 1:30:56quite annexed ordinary development? Yes, absolutely huge news at
1:30:56 > 1:31:01Pyeongchang. We've heard this invitation has come from the North
1:31:01 > 1:31:05Korean leader, for the South Korean leader to visit him, and this was
1:31:05 > 1:31:13hand delivered by his sister. She went into this meeting at the Blue
1:31:13 > 1:31:17House, where the president is in South Korea, carrying a folder and
1:31:17 > 1:31:21we thought it was some sort of a message and indeed it was a written
1:31:21 > 1:31:27message from the North Korean leader, inviting his South Korean
1:31:27 > 1:31:33counterpart to visit him. Apparently Moon Jae-in said to the North
1:31:33 > 1:31:36Koreans, we think you should try to have more engagement with the United
1:31:36 > 1:31:43States. As to whether that could possibly happen, it seems pretty
1:31:43 > 1:31:54tough, even Mike Pence, the vice president, came to the Games, urging
1:31:54 > 1:31:59the South not to up its communication with the North. He
1:31:59 > 1:32:03effectively ignored the North Koreans at the Opening Ceremony. Kim
1:32:03 > 1:32:08Jong-un's sister was sitting right behind him. He could have turned
1:32:08 > 1:32:12around and shook her hand, but if done everything possible to avoid
1:32:12 > 1:32:17contact with the North Koreans. So I am not sure they will be very happy
1:32:17 > 1:32:20about this invitation and I would expect that it won't be long before
1:32:20 > 1:32:27Donald Trump tweets about this, that we hear from the Trump
1:32:27 > 1:32:29administration, especially given they've said they don't want this
1:32:29 > 1:32:33meeting to take place. I guess the idea of Moon Jae-in then travelling
1:32:33 > 1:32:37to North Korea, I assumed they wouldn't like that either.Just to
1:32:37 > 1:32:43be clear about this, the specifics of what we know about the invitation
1:32:43 > 1:32:48is they are saying the earliest date possible. This isn't something in
1:32:48 > 1:32:53the distant future, it is effectively laying down the gauntlet
1:32:53 > 1:33:01and saying, let's do this and let's do this soon.Absolutely. And, you
1:33:01 > 1:33:05know, critics of the engagement policy would say it's only because
1:33:05 > 1:33:08the sanctions have been working, that's why the North is reaching
1:33:08 > 1:33:13out. Moon Jae-in would say, I was elected on a platform of engagement
1:33:13 > 1:33:17with the North, trying to talk to them. I don't care whether sanctions
1:33:17 > 1:33:22brought them about or not. If I have a chance to talk to them at will. I
1:33:22 > 1:33:26think there's a good chance he will accept it and as you say at the
1:33:26 > 1:33:29earliest possible convenience. It doesn't mean next year or in two
1:33:29 > 1:33:33years, it sounds like the North is hoping this will happen very
1:33:33 > 1:33:37quickly. Here at the Winter Olympics we could be seeing a change an
1:33:37 > 1:33:42unfolding before us. I shouldn't overplay it because in the past
1:33:42 > 1:33:46there has been contact between the North and South Korean leaders, in
1:33:46 > 1:33:53years gone by. And it's really come to nothing. However, given the
1:33:53 > 1:33:57enormously tense relationship on the Korean Peninsula in recent years,
1:33:57 > 1:34:01this is a huge shift we are seeing right now.Thank you very much for
1:34:01 > 1:34:07that. That was Steven McDonnell reporting from South Korea at the
1:34:07 > 1:34:11Winter Olympics. And of course we will have some of the details from
1:34:11 > 1:34:13the sporting event coming up soon.
1:34:13 > 1:34:15The government has condemned the "appalling abuse of vulnerable
1:34:15 > 1:34:18people in Haiti" and says Oxfam has serious questions to answer over
1:34:18 > 1:34:21claims the charity covered up the use of prostitutes by some
1:34:21 > 1:34:22of its staff.
1:34:22 > 1:34:25Oxfam insists it publicised the action it took against the aid
1:34:25 > 1:34:27workers involved, some of whom were fired.
1:34:27 > 1:34:30However, the Times is reporting several went on to work for other
1:34:30 > 1:34:35charities, who were unaware of their past behaviour.
1:34:35 > 1:34:37The Defence Minister, Tobias Ellwood, has suggested two
1:34:37 > 1:34:39members of the so-called Islamic State group,
1:34:39 > 1:34:42who are from London, should be tried at the International Criminal Court
1:34:42 > 1:34:45in The Hague.
1:34:45 > 1:34:48The BBC understands Alexanda Kotey and El Shafee Elsheikh,
1:34:48 > 1:34:50whose unit is thought to have murdered 27 hostages,
1:34:50 > 1:34:56have been stripped of their British citizenship.
1:34:56 > 1:34:59The Syrian fighters who captured them say they're yet to receive
1:34:59 > 1:35:04a request from any country to hand them over.
1:35:04 > 1:35:07A second member of staff at the White House has resigned over
1:35:07 > 1:35:12allegations of domestic abuse.
1:35:12 > 1:35:14The former wife of speech writer David Sorensen claimed
1:35:14 > 1:35:16he was violent and abusive during their marriage,
1:35:16 > 1:35:17something he denies.
1:35:17 > 1:35:20Earlier, Donald Trump was criticised for publicly praising another aide,
1:35:20 > 1:35:23Rob Porter, who stepped down over accusations of abuse made
1:35:23 > 1:35:24by his two ex-wives.
1:35:24 > 1:35:27A convicted killer who drove his car over a woman as she tried
1:35:27 > 1:35:31to stop him stealing her handbag has gone on the run after he was freed
1:35:31 > 1:35:32from prison on licence.
1:35:32 > 1:35:36Mark Woolley was jailed for life at the Old Bailey in 2001
1:35:36 > 1:35:38for the murder of costume designer Elizabeth Sherlock
1:35:38 > 1:35:40and was released in November.
1:35:40 > 1:35:43Scotland Yard says he was last seen at a probation meeting
1:35:43 > 1:35:45in East London ten days ago.
1:35:45 > 1:35:48Gerry Adams, one of the longest serving party leaders in the world,
1:35:48 > 1:35:51will step down as President of Sinn Fein today.
1:35:51 > 1:35:54After more than 34 years in the post, he will be replaced
1:35:54 > 1:35:57by Mary Lou McDonald at a specially convened party conference in Dublin.
1:35:57 > 1:36:00Her first major challenge will be in Northern Ireland,
1:36:00 > 1:36:03where talks to restore the devolved government are due to conclude next
1:36:03 > 1:36:08week.
1:36:08 > 1:36:11Those are the main stories this morning.
1:36:11 > 1:36:16We've been blessed this morning. The Winter Olympics does throw up these
1:36:16 > 1:36:21amazing images. Fantastic. I was just trying to put
1:36:21 > 1:36:24myself in the minds of the slopestyle snowboarders who have
1:36:24 > 1:36:28spent many years perfecting their rotations.
1:36:28 > 1:36:32These are the leaps they do into the air.
1:36:32 > 1:36:36They spent four years getting to that moment and it all comes down to
1:36:36 > 1:36:40the second when they land. If they land fine you might get a medal and
1:36:40 > 1:36:45get into the final, at all the Brits failed. Disappointment for the three
1:36:45 > 1:36:47Brits in the slopestyle this morning.
1:36:47 > 1:36:56With the numbers, when you say 14:40, four times 360 degrees. That
1:36:56 > 1:37:00puts it into perspective. Amazing. It must affect your site
1:37:00 > 1:37:05and vision. Incredible. Another event under way is the
1:37:05 > 1:37:14skiathlon. We will find out how Annika Taylor is getting on in that.
1:37:14 > 1:37:17In Pyeongchang over the next hour and also somewhere down
1:37:17 > 1:37:19there is Breakfast's Kat Downes.
1:37:19 > 1:37:27I love your hat! It looks great. Much needed.Thank you very much.
1:37:27 > 1:37:31Can you cheer us up after what happened this morning in the
1:37:31 > 1:37:36slopestyle? The Brits couldn't nail the landings.I know and as you say
1:37:36 > 1:37:39it does all come down to those landings. It's just because those
1:37:39 > 1:37:44landings. They are all a bit philosophical about it. It is all or
1:37:44 > 1:37:49nothing when it comes to slopestyle and unfortunately for the Brits it
1:37:49 > 1:37:56came to nothing. But some of them do have big air, another comp addition
1:37:56 > 1:38:00to come, and they should do well in that as long as they nail those
1:38:00 > 1:38:06landings -- competition. It is a bit of a bad start for Team GB,
1:38:06 > 1:38:09especially after the bars of the Opening Ceremony that we had last
1:38:09 > 1:38:16night. Robin car is
1:38:16 > 1:38:20night. Robin car is in-- Cousins is alongside me. Did it bring back some
1:38:20 > 1:38:25fond memories?Every Olympics you go to, you get that tingle on the back
1:38:25 > 1:38:29of your neck when the athletes and tell. There's something about it. It
1:38:29 > 1:38:33is a unique environment. I thought the ceremony was wonderful last
1:38:33 > 1:38:38night. A great balance between the pomp and circumstance. A wonderful
1:38:38 > 1:38:42spectacle. I was loving the detailing of the costuming and the
1:38:42 > 1:38:46way the props were used and I used the words Carmen and serene, which
1:38:46 > 1:38:55isn't normal for an Opening Ceremony -- calm.And we kind of come
1:38:55 > 1:38:58crashing back down to work because Jamie Nicholls didn't go so well.
1:38:58 > 1:39:02His first run when Tokay, didn't get the marquee was hoping for, the
1:39:02 > 1:39:06second one he had a crash. And Billy Morgan finished his second run on
1:39:06 > 1:39:11his back. How do Team GB pick themselves back up after a
1:39:11 > 1:39:14disappointing opening morning? Literally they will. It's the
1:39:14 > 1:39:21jeopardy of winter sports. Nobody has run the slope or a skate on the
1:39:21 > 1:39:24ice rink where mistakes don't happen. It's not unique or unusual.
1:39:24 > 1:39:31You just don't want them to happen at the Olympics, but they do. And
1:39:31 > 1:39:36they have. There's another event in a few days. You get back on to
1:39:36 > 1:39:43Twitter and is a portal frames. -- support your friends. They will
1:39:43 > 1:39:48boost due to the next one and that's the beauty of the team spirit and
1:39:48 > 1:39:53that's what's great, whether it is Team GB or whoever it is. There is
1:39:53 > 1:39:56this interaction and social media really helps each other boost
1:39:56 > 1:40:03themselves along. They may be miles away in a different venue but you
1:40:03 > 1:40:07can let your mates know you are thinking of them. Where it becomes
1:40:07 > 1:40:15Olympic is it doesn't matter what cameraderie you have, and it is your
1:40:15 > 1:40:19turn, everyone else is done, you don't want to know, it was you spend
1:40:19 > 1:40:24your life preparing for this moment. And for some people the smallest and
1:40:24 > 1:40:28the most minute of mistakes is the difference between being on a podium
1:40:28 > 1:40:32and not qualifying for a final.And one woman who knows all about
1:40:32 > 1:40:37Olympic disappointment and bouncing back is of course Elise Christie,
1:40:37 > 1:40:44the speedskating superstar. She had such a terrible time at Sochi, but
1:40:44 > 1:40:47came back to become the three-time world champion couple of years ago.
1:40:47 > 1:40:51She is coming into this Games as a really big hope for great written.
1:40:51 > 1:40:58How do you deal with that? -- great written. It comes down to strapping
1:40:58 > 1:41:01on your skates and not thinking about anyone else?And she didn't
1:41:01 > 1:41:10skate badly in Sochi moshy just had bad results. She didn't have to
1:41:10 > 1:41:14change her skating or strategy, you learn to cope and you become
1:41:14 > 1:41:17stronger and more powerful by acknowledging those mistakes and
1:41:17 > 1:41:22acknowledging what went wrong and you put it right. She's got three
1:41:22 > 1:41:27world titles behind her and is here, ready to go. Of course she will be
1:41:27 > 1:41:31aware of what he will come down to and what is required, but she can
1:41:31 > 1:41:35make it happen and everyone will be behind her and we hope this time
1:41:35 > 1:41:41round it will work in favour.Yes, come on Elise Christie! Thanks for
1:41:41 > 1:41:45your insight into what it's like to be an Olympic athlete. We will have
1:41:45 > 1:41:50a look at Elise Christie in the 500 metre heats at about 10:50am this
1:41:50 > 1:41:58morning. 10:53am. You don't want to miss it, it will be live on BBC One.
1:41:58 > 1:42:06Thank you so much! I love Kat's gloves as well.
1:42:06 > 1:42:08Back home and another huge Six Nations weekend,
1:42:08 > 1:42:10with a mouthwatering contest at Twickenham this afternoon.
1:42:10 > 1:42:11England take on Wales.
1:42:11 > 1:42:14England, remember, are aiming to become the first side to win
1:42:14 > 1:42:16three consecutive Six Nations titles.
1:42:16 > 1:42:19They domainated against Italy last week, but Wales were equally
1:42:19 > 1:42:20impressive in their win against Scotland.
1:42:20 > 1:42:23John Watson is live at Twickenham for us this morning.
1:42:23 > 1:42:25Hi, John.
1:42:25 > 1:42:29Plenty of mind games going on all week with the Welsh camp I suppose
1:42:29 > 1:42:32laughing off the English coach's suggestions that they might lack a
1:42:32 > 1:42:37bit of bottle in this one?It doesn't need much more buildup,
1:42:37 > 1:42:44really. A classic match between two proud rugby playing nations. England
1:42:44 > 1:42:48against Wales. But of course there will be some incendiary comments
1:42:48 > 1:42:51thrown in by Eddie Jones. Interesting he signalled out one of
1:42:51 > 1:42:56the least experienced players in the Welsh side, the fly half. Their
1:42:56 > 1:42:59third choice fly half who has come in as a result of injuring,
1:42:59 > 1:43:05suggesting he didn't have the bottle to contend with Twickenham, the
1:43:05 > 1:43:0982,000 fans warming this place up later. Interesting, little bit of
1:43:09 > 1:43:14mind games to sow the seed of doubt in his mind. But he is a consummate
1:43:14 > 1:43:18professional and I'm sure he would be put off his stride. At Eddie
1:43:18 > 1:43:22Jones is a master tactician on the field as well and it is set up
1:43:22 > 1:43:25beautifully. The way England played against Italy in the opening match,
1:43:25 > 1:43:29running in seven tries, but Wales played very well against Scotland.
1:43:29 > 1:43:33Scotland had a great running the autumn internationals, but Wales
1:43:33 > 1:43:37blew them away. Leigh Halfpenny was instrumental, with 34 points.
1:43:37 > 1:43:41Interesting to see how this one will go. Eddie Jones on this incredible
1:43:41 > 1:43:48run with England. 21 wins out of 24. They haven't lost at Twickenham
1:43:48 > 1:43:52under his tenure so far, but Warren Gatland is a very astute coach and
1:43:52 > 1:43:56has won three times here in ten years. Well fans will like this. --
1:43:56 > 1:44:03the Welsh fans. Eddie Jones won't want history to repeat itself when
1:44:03 > 1:44:08the Welsh 110 years ago.Ten years, can't believe that! Time for the
1:44:08 > 1:44:12football.
1:44:12 > 1:44:19The event currently happening in Pyeongchang is the skiathlon. Two
1:44:19 > 1:44:22types of cross-country skiing through the South Korean hills. Look
1:44:22 > 1:44:30at these images. Fantastic. It's an injury and -- endurance event.
1:44:30 > 1:44:35Uphill for a lot of the course, so you really have to have a lot of
1:44:35 > 1:44:39lactic acid tolerance in your legs, real strength to power your way.
1:44:39 > 1:44:44It's not all uphill, but look at the technique. That is the classic one.
1:44:44 > 1:44:48They are changing over right now. Its freestyle. It's been going about
1:44:48 > 1:44:53half an hour. Britain's Annika Taylor is towards
1:44:53 > 1:44:58the back of the field. She is outside the top 50.
1:44:58 > 1:45:03Thank you. See you later. I am just thinking about the burn in the
1:45:03 > 1:45:08thighs.
1:45:15 > 1:45:17dramatic skyline behind you. Yes, we might see stuff like this today.
1:45:17 > 1:45:28Rain to many of us. Sunnier skies. Wintry showers. Today is quite
1:45:28 > 1:45:41windy. It is a north-westerly wind. We got a weather system moving
1:45:41 > 1:45:46through the UK.
1:45:46 > 1:45:49through the UK. Across Scotland, Northern Ireland, parts of western
1:45:49 > 1:45:54England.
1:45:56 > 1:46:00England. We see some rain moving in. For a time, things will be quiet
1:46:00 > 1:46:07blur -- quieter.
1:46:07 > 1:46:10blur -- quieter. Nice in Scotland over my -- nice and clear of
1:46:10 > 1:46:19Scotland. Northern Ireland, after a dry, sunny spell, one or two holes
1:46:19 > 1:46:29in the cloud. South-east England, indicating further outbreaks of
1:46:29 > 1:46:35rain. As the temperatures, we have had forced to start the day. Seven
1:46:35 > 1:46:40degrees, but some spots in south-west England, around 11 or 12.
1:46:40 > 1:46:46We've been talking about it, Six Nations action. Some outbreaks of
1:46:46 > 1:46:51rain, both here and in Dublin as well. A fairly brisk south-westerly
1:46:51 > 1:46:59wind. The wind gets stronger. We could see gusts up to 60 miles per
1:46:59 > 1:47:08hour. Snow showing up as well. The relatively low levels will see a few
1:47:08 > 1:47:10centimetres going into Sunday morning. Snow showers following from
1:47:10 > 1:47:24the north-west. Parts of northern England, northern Wales. We will be
1:47:24 > 1:47:35seeing snow showers. Inland split, snow and hail. It's going to feel
1:47:35 > 1:47:40much colder again tomorrow.
1:47:41 > 1:47:41much colder again tomorrow. Now it is
1:47:41 > 1:47:46much colder again tomorrow. Now it is time for Newswatch.
1:47:46 > 1:47:48Hello and welcome to Newswatch with me, Samira Ahmed.
1:47:48 > 1:47:52On the show:
1:47:52 > 1:47:56How wise was it for a BBC reporter to be following this woman down
1:47:56 > 1:47:58a dark street?
1:47:58 > 1:48:06And the BBC's weather forecasts have had a makeover but are they clearer
1:48:08 > 1:48:09or have they made the picture more murky?
1:48:09 > 1:48:12Tuesday marked 100 years since some women receive the right to vote
1:48:12 > 1:48:16and Breakfast marked the occasion with an all-female line-up,
1:48:16 > 1:48:19from the two main presenters to sports and weather presenters
1:48:19 > 1:48:21and a roster of women guests.
1:48:21 > 1:48:23Some members of the audience approved.
1:48:23 > 1:48:24Chandy Cha writing:
1:48:37 > 1:48:40And Iryna questioned the whole idea.
1:49:11 > 1:49:13Across BBC News that day, the anniversary was recognised.
1:49:13 > 1:49:16Kevin Jones applauded the coverage as a whole,
1:49:39 > 1:49:41Wednesday evening's bulletins included a report
1:49:41 > 1:49:43from Michael Buchanan about an NHS Trust
1:49:43 > 1:49:46in Liverpool where, according to a report seen by BBC News,
1:49:46 > 1:49:51patients had suffered unnecessary harm because a senior leadership
1:49:51 > 1:49:53team was out of its depth.
1:49:53 > 1:49:55The chief executive at the time was Bernie Cuthel,
1:49:55 > 1:49:57and here she is tracked down
1:49:57 > 1:50:00on the News at Six.
1:50:00 > 1:50:08Excuse me?
1:50:13 > 1:50:13Yeah.
1:50:13 > 1:50:14BBC News.
1:50:14 > 1:50:17We would like to talk to you about Liverpool Community
1:50:17 > 1:50:17Health.
1:50:17 > 1:50:20We just want to ask you a couple of questions.
1:50:20 > 1:50:21Are you a bully, Ms Cuthel?
1:50:21 > 1:50:25Are you a bully?
1:50:25 > 1:50:27And, as you can see, Bernie Cuthel did not
1:50:27 > 1:50:28want to answer any questions.
1:50:28 > 1:50:32A later version of that report for the News at Ten made it clear
1:50:32 > 1:50:38that Bernie Cuthel had not responded to two previous requests
1:50:38 > 1:50:39for an interview.
1:50:39 > 1:50:42But some viewers of the News at Six were clearly unhappy
1:50:42 > 1:50:45at what they had seen, with Michelle Smith explaining why
1:50:45 > 1:50:50in this video she recorded for us.
1:50:50 > 1:50:53I was absolutely appalled to see that the reporter who wanted
1:50:53 > 1:50:56a comment from her was chasing her down a dark street
1:50:56 > 1:50:59as she was walking alone, shouting at her and running
1:50:59 > 1:51:01after her, to get a quote, asking her questions
1:51:01 > 1:51:03like "Are you a bully, Bernie?"
1:51:03 > 1:51:06Well, in my opinion, BBC, your reporter was the bully
1:51:06 > 1:51:06in this case
1:51:06 > 1:51:10and it was absolutely unnecessary.
1:51:10 > 1:51:13Well, we put that objection to BBC News and they told us:
1:51:42 > 1:51:45Please do let us know your thoughts on anything we are covering
1:51:45 > 1:51:49in the programme or on any aspect of BBC News.
1:51:49 > 1:51:53Details on how to contact us coming up at the end of the programme.
1:51:53 > 1:52:00Now, since its first radio weather bulletin in 1922,
1:52:00 > 1:52:03the data used for BBC forecasts has been provided by the Met Office.
1:52:03 > 1:52:04But no longer.
1:52:04 > 1:52:07Although the Met Office will still work with the BBC
1:52:07 > 1:52:09on severe weather warnings, the BBC now
1:52:09 > 1:52:14has a new weather service provider, MeteoGroup.
1:52:14 > 1:52:17Although the presenters are the same, there is also
1:52:17 > 1:52:20a new look seen online on the weather app and from last
1:52:20 > 1:52:21Tuesday, on television.
1:52:21 > 1:52:23For that day's News at One, Sarah Keith Lucas talked
1:52:23 > 1:52:25through some of the changes.
1:52:25 > 1:52:27Let's zoom into northern England and in this example,
1:52:27 > 1:52:31you can see quite clearly the showers falling as rain but also
1:52:31 > 1:52:32as snow over the higher ground, too.
1:52:32 > 1:52:36And it is not only on the small scale that things are changing,
1:52:36 > 1:52:44but also on the global scale too.
1:52:44 > 1:52:48We can now look at satellite data from right around the world,
1:52:48 > 1:52:50we can also add on pressure fields and frontal systems too.
1:52:50 > 1:52:53Well, some members of the audience have responded with enthusiasm like
1:52:53 > 1:52:53Adam Clutterham.
1:52:53 > 1:52:56But Paul Smith complained of a lack of clarity.
1:52:56 > 1:53:04Apart from the change from a brown to green background,
1:53:17 > 1:53:19Apart from the change from a brown to green background,
1:53:19 > 1:53:22some viewers detected a change in the shape of the map
1:53:22 > 1:53:24with the new, longer, thinner version giving more
1:53:24 > 1:53:32space to Scotland.
1:53:33 > 1:53:35And Simon Carter wondered:
1:53:48 > 1:53:51Others objected to the increased text shown on screen,
1:53:51 > 1:53:51with Dennis Franklin writing:
1:54:01 > 1:54:03Well, to answer that question and others,
1:54:03 > 1:54:05I'm joined by Liz Howell, the head of BBC Weather.
1:54:05 > 1:54:07Thank you for coming on Newswatch.
1:54:07 > 1:54:10People are saying it wasn't broke, why did you change the weather?
1:54:10 > 1:54:13Well, under EU laws, we had to run a regulated
1:54:13 > 1:54:15procurement process when our previous contract ran out.
1:54:15 > 1:54:17And quite simply, MeteoGroup was the best fit.
1:54:17 > 1:54:18In every respect.
1:54:18 > 1:54:21And so, that's why they were awarded the contract.
1:54:21 > 1:54:24So what are some of the specific changes that you've made
1:54:24 > 1:54:32that people will notice?
1:54:35 > 1:54:37We're really excited about some of these.
1:54:37 > 1:54:40So we have realistic mapping there, so we can put roads
1:54:40 > 1:54:43on there and we can put urban areas on there so we can
1:54:43 > 1:54:47show where weather is affecting travel.
1:54:47 > 1:54:50We have on the app and on the website 14 days now
1:54:50 > 1:54:55of forecast data for each hour of the day.
1:54:55 > 1:54:58We have a feels-like temperature, which really tells people what it's
1:54:58 > 1:55:02going to be like when they step out the door.
1:55:02 > 1:55:05And we have a percentage chance of rain.
1:55:05 > 1:55:07And alongside that now, the forecasters and presenters have
1:55:07 > 1:55:15far more forecasting models available to them
1:55:15 > 1:55:16than they ever had before.
1:55:16 > 1:55:19Well, we have - yes, we have more high-resolution data.
1:55:19 > 1:55:21And we have more models to choose from.
1:55:21 > 1:55:27So the accuracy should go up.
1:55:27 > 1:55:30People have got used to more realistic mapping and that's
1:55:30 > 1:55:31what we've introduced.
1:55:31 > 1:55:34We've got a green map and we've got a green earth in the UK.
1:55:34 > 1:55:38We got a flat map now which gives a better proportion to the UK,
1:55:38 > 1:55:39a more realistic proportion.
1:55:39 > 1:55:42They had got - through our audience research -
1:55:42 > 1:55:45they had got slightly bored with the brown map.
1:55:45 > 1:55:47It looks like a reversion to a flat earth.
1:55:47 > 1:55:49There are many projections of the Earth.
1:55:49 > 1:55:51We had a tilted one and of course, you know,
1:55:51 > 1:55:53some weren't happy with that.
1:55:53 > 1:55:55But this is a projection people are really comfortable
1:55:55 > 1:55:59in the sense they are used to it, so it's one you see
1:55:59 > 1:56:01on the news, it's one used in many
1:56:01 > 1:56:01other organisations.
1:56:01 > 1:56:03Why are they saying it's more skinny?
1:56:03 > 1:56:04It's just proportional.
1:56:04 > 1:56:07It's more proportional to the actual landmass of the UK.
1:56:07 > 1:56:10We do get viewers complaining about the change of colour
1:56:10 > 1:56:13and the mapping detail and that actually, it looks less clear,
1:56:13 > 1:56:13they would say.
1:56:13 > 1:56:16Obviously, we've only launched a few days ago.
1:56:16 > 1:56:18We've done a lot of audience testing with this work.
1:56:18 > 1:56:20But we'll be listening to audience feedback.
1:56:20 > 1:56:22So you might tweak it?
1:56:22 > 1:56:25There are definitely going to be tweaks to this over time.
1:56:25 > 1:56:25Definitely.
1:56:25 > 1:56:26Good, good, good.
1:56:26 > 1:56:26A related point.
1:56:26 > 1:56:28The size of the place names.
1:56:28 > 1:56:31So, Tom Holt, who also happens to be a lecturer in glaciology,
1:56:31 > 1:56:32e-mailed us.
1:56:32 > 1:56:35"The label for Birmingham stretches almost entirely across the Cambrian
1:56:35 > 1:56:35Mountains".
1:56:35 > 1:56:38So he can't see the weather for a huge stretch of Wales.
1:56:38 > 1:56:39That's hardly user-friendly.
1:56:39 > 1:56:42People have different opinions about labels and towns and cities
1:56:42 > 1:56:42on the map.
1:56:42 > 1:56:45So we've had comments that they are too small,
1:56:45 > 1:56:48we've had comments there are too many, we've had comments
1:56:48 > 1:56:49there are too few
1:56:49 > 1:56:53and we've had comments that we shouldn't have any town
1:56:53 > 1:56:54names on the map at all.
1:56:54 > 1:56:55Maybe fewer.
1:56:55 > 1:56:55Exactly -
1:56:55 > 1:56:59that's one of the many options people are writing into us about.
1:56:59 > 1:57:02Over the years, Newswatch viewers have often complained about too much
1:57:02 > 1:57:04detail for whole parts of the country they,
1:57:04 > 1:57:07obviously, don't care
1:57:07 > 1:57:09about because they don't live there.
1:57:09 > 1:57:12How do you approach that whole kind of competing demand situation,
1:57:12 > 1:57:15of giving a national picture in the time that you have and giving
1:57:15 > 1:57:18enough local detail for it to be useful?
1:57:18 > 1:57:21We tend to go for the bigger impact weather and start there and make
1:57:21 > 1:57:24sure people, where they are going to get storms or snow,
1:57:24 > 1:57:27or whatever, understand the impacts of them and the relevance
1:57:27 > 1:57:28of that for them.
1:57:28 > 1:57:32But we try to give something for every nation so somebody goes
1:57:32 > 1:57:32away with something.
1:57:32 > 1:57:36BBC Weather is a catalogue of services, so you have the network
1:57:36 > 1:57:38service that will give you the UK picture,
1:57:38 > 1:57:42you then can have a regional TV service which will give you a much
1:57:42 > 1:57:47more detailed picture,
1:57:47 > 1:57:50then we have the app which I think really we've improved so much now.
1:57:50 > 1:57:54We'll give you a very, very local forecast for your postcode each hour
1:57:54 > 1:57:55of the day.
1:57:55 > 1:57:56Liz Howell, thank you very much.
1:57:56 > 1:58:00Finally, we woke up on Monday morning to some big sports news -
1:58:00 > 1:58:03big enough, at least, to lead sports bulletins and be
1:58:03 > 1:58:04the lead story
1:58:04 > 1:58:07on the BBC Sport website.
1:58:07 > 1:58:11Yes, the Philadelphia Eagles had won the Super Bowl for the first time
1:58:11 > 1:58:13by beating the New England Patriots.
1:58:13 > 1:58:15And if that leaves you cold, or even mystified, others,
1:58:15 > 1:58:18too, wondered why an American sporting event had achieved such
1:58:18 > 1:58:19prominence on British television.
1:58:19 > 1:58:21Here is David Gibbs.
1:58:49 > 1:58:51Thank you for all your comments this week.
1:58:51 > 1:58:55If you want to share your opinions on BBC News and current affairs,
1:58:55 > 1:58:58or even appear on the programme, you can call us,
1:58:58 > 1:58:58e-mail Newswatch,
1:58:58 > 1:59:02or you can find us on Twitter.
1:59:02 > 1:59:04Do have a look at our website.
1:59:04 > 1:59:06The address for that is:
1:59:06 > 1:59:09That's all from us.
1:59:09 > 1:59:12We'll be back to hear your thoughts about BBC news coverage
1:59:12 > 1:59:13again next week.
1:59:13 > 1:59:14Goodbye.
1:59:14 > 1:59:17$:/ENDFEEED.
2:00:14 > 2:00:20Hello this is Breakfast with Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty.
2:00:20 > 2:00:22The North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has invited the South Korean
2:00:22 > 2:00:24president to visit him at the earliest date possible.
2:00:24 > 2:00:27The invitation was given by the sister of the North Korean
2:00:27 > 2:00:35leader at a historic meeting at the Winter Olympics in Seoul.
2:00:39 > 2:00:45It would be the first meeting in more than a decade between the two
2:00:45 > 2:00:49leaders.
2:00:49 > 2:00:50Good morning it's Saturday the 10th of February.
2:00:50 > 2:00:54Also this morning:
2:00:54 > 2:00:56The government condemns the "appalling abuse of vulnerable
2:00:56 > 2:00:58people in Haiti" and says the charity Oxfam has serious
2:00:58 > 2:01:05questions to answer.
2:01:05 > 2:01:06A government minister says two captured members
2:01:06 > 2:01:08of the British Islamic State cell, nicknamed "the Beatles",
2:01:08 > 2:01:10should be considered for trial at the Hague.
2:01:10 > 2:01:13In sport, a crash landing for the Brits, on day one
2:01:13 > 2:01:14of the Winter Olympics.
2:01:14 > 2:01:17All 3 of the medal hopes in the snowboard slopestyle,
2:01:17 > 2:01:20try spectacular moves in the skies, but fail to make the final -
2:01:20 > 2:01:28with Billy Morgan falling on his final run.
2:01:30 > 2:01:36After disappointment for the snowboarders, all eyes are now on
2:01:36 > 2:01:41Elise Christie. I will have more alive from Pyeongchang at the rout
2:01:41 > 2:01:45it dirty pool -- at about 830 AM.
2:01:45 > 2:01:49And Nick has the weather.
2:01:49 > 2:01:53Rain at sons today for all of us, the chance of snow, especially
2:01:53 > 2:01:58later. Tomorrow is much colder, again. I have got the full forecast
2:01:58 > 2:02:00coming.
2:02:00 > 2:02:01Good morning.
2:02:01 > 2:02:02First our main story.
2:02:02 > 2:02:04The North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has invited the South Korean
2:02:04 > 2:02:07president to visit him at the earliest date possible.
2:02:07 > 2:02:09The invitation was given by the sister of the North Korean
2:02:09 > 2:02:14leader during a historic meeting between the two sides in Seoul.
2:02:14 > 2:02:16Let's get more on this from our correspondent Stephen McDonnell
2:02:16 > 2:02:22who's in Pyeongchang.
2:02:22 > 2:02:26Stephen, just put this in some kind of context for us, because only a
2:02:26 > 2:02:29couple of days ago this would have been a development that no one
2:02:29 > 2:02:35thought possible?Yes, it is absolutely remarkable that we have
2:02:35 > 2:02:42heard here... The news is flying around the Olympic press thinks.
2:02:42 > 2:02:47That this information has come from the North Korean leader, to the
2:02:47 > 2:02:55South Korean counterpart to visit Pyongyang. The only reason that the
2:02:55 > 2:03:00North Korean team could come here was because they have got this one
2:03:00 > 2:03:03phone line across the demilitarised zone up and running, and talk
2:03:03 > 2:03:07through the logistics of getting the team here, and then this delegation,
2:03:07 > 2:03:11and then the next thing we know, there is a joint hockey team, and
2:03:11 > 2:03:18then the sister of North Korea's leader comes along, and it is
2:03:18 > 2:03:21remarkable enough that the meeting took place at the blue house, and
2:03:21 > 2:03:25she was going in carrying this folder, as people work looking at
2:03:25 > 2:03:32the folder and Warren during what it was, and it was a written message
2:03:32 > 2:03:35from Koeman saying, come and visit at your earliest possible
2:03:35 > 2:03:53convenience. -- from Kim Jong-un. The tramp administration has been --
2:03:53 > 2:03:56Trump administration has been saying... It is quite possible that
2:03:56 > 2:04:05this meeting will take place.Just give us a bit more on that. It has
2:04:05 > 2:04:09been a very long time since meetings of this kind of significance have
2:04:09 > 2:04:17taken place, if at all.Yes, well, twice before. South Korean hazard
2:04:17 > 2:04:24and have visited the north.
2:04:24 > 2:04:25and have visited the north. -- South Korean presidents have visited the
2:04:25 > 2:04:34north. And so, in the south, there is a constant struggle, how do you
2:04:34 > 2:04:42deal with the north. But, the self's president coming to power and
2:04:42 > 2:04:47promising better dialogue. Of course he would meet the sister and that
2:04:47 > 2:04:55she brought that message has resulted in these quite historic
2:04:55 > 2:04:59developments unfolding here at the Winter Olympics big question is
2:04:59 > 2:05:03whether its last? When it come to anything that all remains to be
2:05:03 > 2:05:12seen. However for many South Koreans who might be sick of the tension, at
2:05:12 > 2:05:16least there is some sort of dialogue. At least they are opening
2:05:16 > 2:05:19up a party discussion.
2:05:19 > 2:05:21The government has condemned the "appalling abuse of vulnerable
2:05:21 > 2:05:24people in Haiti" and says Oxfam has serious questions to answer over
2:05:24 > 2:05:27claims the charity covered up the use of prostitutes by some
2:05:27 > 2:05:28of its staff.
2:05:28 > 2:05:30Oxfam insists it publicised the action it took against the aid
2:05:30 > 2:05:32workers involved, some of whom were fired.
2:05:32 > 2:05:36However, the Times is reporting several went on to work
2:05:36 > 2:05:37for other charities, who were unaware of
2:05:37 > 2:05:43their past behaviour.
2:05:43 > 2:05:50Jessica Parker reports.
2:06:01 > 2:06:03An advert from the charity giant, Oxfam.
2:06:03 > 2:06:05It got nearly £32 million from the UK
2:06:05 > 2:06:13Department for International Development in the last financial
2:06:13 > 2:06:15year, but amid the sexual exploitation scandal, the Government
2:06:15 > 2:06:18said last night:
2:06:24 > 2:06:26The allegations surround the the behaviour of aid
2:06:26 > 2:06:28workers here in Haiti following the devastating
2:06:28 > 2:06:29earthquake in 2010.
2:06:29 > 2:06:30A Times newspaper found inappropriate
2:06:30 > 2:06:31behaviour, including the use of prostitutes.
2:06:31 > 2:06:38The charity has denied a cover-up and said that it publicly
2:06:38 > 2:06:40announced an enquiry into the claims in 2011.
2:06:40 > 2:06:45It said the behaviour of some of its staff had been totally
2:06:45 > 2:06:48unacceptable, but that allegations that underage girls may have been
2:06:48 > 2:06:49involved were not proven.
2:06:49 > 2:06:50Four staff members were dismissed and three
2:06:50 > 2:06:53were allowed to resign as part of the external investigation.
2:06:53 > 2:06:59Was this the first time that you ever heard
2:06:59 > 2:07:01of exploitative sexual behaviour going on at Oxfam?
2:07:01 > 2:07:02No.
2:07:02 > 2:07:03No.
2:07:03 > 2:07:07I can only think of one or two examples that
2:07:07 > 2:07:10come to mind, but we had already agreed that any sign that anybody
2:07:10 > 2:07:12was doing this, there would be an investigation.
2:07:12 > 2:07:14That investigation was noted and went to our trustee
2:07:14 > 2:07:16board.
2:07:16 > 2:07:24Today the Times reports fresh claims that Oxfam failed to warn
2:07:24 > 2:07:26other aid agencies about the staff, allowing
2:07:26 > 2:07:27them to take other jobs in
2:07:27 > 2:07:28the sector.
2:07:28 > 2:07:31While there is a wide acknowledgement that hundreds of
2:07:31 > 2:07:33Oxfam staff have done nothing wrong, the charity does now face serious
2:07:33 > 2:07:42questions about its past and what that could mean for its future.
2:07:50 > 2:07:51The Defence Minister, Tobias Ellwood, has suggested two
2:07:51 > 2:07:53members of the so-called Islamic State group,
2:07:53 > 2:07:56who are from London, should be tried at the International Criminal Court
2:07:56 > 2:07:57in The Hague.
2:07:57 > 2:07:59The BBC understands Alexanda Kotey and El Shafee Elsheikh -
2:07:59 > 2:08:02whose unit is thought to have murdered 27 hostages -
2:08:02 > 2:08:04have been stripped of their British citizenship.
2:08:04 > 2:08:06The Syrian fighters who captured them say they're yet to receive
2:08:06 > 2:08:13a request from any country to hand them over.
2:08:13 > 2:08:19Israel says that one of its fighter jets has crashed. Both pilots
2:08:19 > 2:08:24rejected safely. Israel said that they had been responding to the
2:08:24 > 2:08:32launch of a drone in its ASBOs.
2:08:33 > 2:08:34launch of a drone in its ASBOs. -- in it and space.
2:08:34 > 2:08:37A second member of staff at the White House has resigned over
2:08:37 > 2:08:38allegations of domestic abuse.
2:08:38 > 2:08:45The former wife of speechwriter, David Sorensen, claimed
2:08:45 > 2:08:47he was violent and abusive during their marriage -
2:08:47 > 2:08:48something he denies.
2:08:48 > 2:08:50Earlier Donald Trump was criticised for publicly
2:08:50 > 2:08:52praising another aide, Rob Porter, who stepped down over
2:08:52 > 2:08:54accusations of abuse made by his two ex-wives.
2:08:54 > 2:08:56A convicted killer, who drove his car over a woman
2:08:56 > 2:08:59as she tried to stop him stealing her handbag, has gone
2:08:59 > 2:09:02on the run after he was freed from prison on licence.
2:09:02 > 2:09:04Mark Woolley was jailed for life at the Old Bailey in 2001
2:09:04 > 2:09:07for the murder of costume designer Elizabeth Sherlock -
2:09:07 > 2:09:08and was released in November.
2:09:08 > 2:09:10Scotland Yard says he was last seen at a probation meeting
2:09:10 > 2:09:12in East London 10 days ago.

2:09:41 > 2:09:47It says the scheme that is currently voluntary and regulated by the EU
2:09:47 > 2:09:52helps customers understand what is in the food they buy. The public
2:09:52 > 2:09:55health says that they are committed to giving clear information about
2:09:55 > 2:10:10what they eat. Those are the main stories this morning.
2:10:12 > 2:10:17Now it has urged that the two surviving members, El Shafee
2:10:17 > 2:10:21Elsheikh and Alexanda Kotey have been captured. His daughter Bethany
2:10:21 > 2:10:26has spoken to the BBC about the punishment that she hopes the BBC
2:10:26 > 2:10:30will face.People say that you learn to get over it, but you never get
2:10:30 > 2:10:35over it, and you just learn to deal with the motions that are playing in
2:10:35 > 2:10:41your head every day. My personal opinion is that they should die a
2:10:41 > 2:10:44long, slow, painful death. I think a lot of people will understand that,
2:10:44 > 2:10:48that they should not be allowed to live. The best thing for them is to
2:10:48 > 2:10:52be locked up and throw away the key. They should never be allowed back
2:10:52 > 2:10:57into society, because they will just recruit people and do this again. If
2:10:57 > 2:11:01it goes to trial, I certainly will be there, look them in nearby and
2:11:01 > 2:11:05let them know who I am, and that they have destroyed a big part of my
2:11:05 > 2:11:10life. It changes you for ever. Losing someone is hard enough,
2:11:10 > 2:11:14especially a parent, and so unexpectedly, but knowing that it
2:11:14 > 2:11:18wasn't an accident, that this was a deliberate act, and so public, it
2:11:18 > 2:11:23does make it harder, because you are being asked all of these questions
2:11:23 > 2:11:34that you don't know how to answer, yourself.Well,...
2:11:35 > 2:11:37Joining us now from our London newsroom, is John Cooper,
2:11:37 > 2:11:40a barrister specialising in human rights and criminal law.
2:11:40 > 2:11:44You can understand that there is a real desire to bring these people to
2:11:44 > 2:11:50justice, but interestingly enough, the country that has them says there
2:11:50 > 2:11:56is no request to hand them over, yet.I can quite understand those
2:11:56 > 2:12:00heartbreaking comments. I am absolutely convinced that that
2:12:00 > 2:12:04process will happen. The question is exactly what will happen at the end
2:12:04 > 2:12:09of it. There are a number of options. The option that I
2:12:09 > 2:12:13particularly favour is that they be tried in their criminal courts,
2:12:13 > 2:12:19either here or in America. There are other options, of course, as to
2:12:19 > 2:12:22whether they go to Guantanamo Bay, which I think is a completely wrong
2:12:22 > 2:12:27idea. There is another hybrid option that some sort of tribunal be set
2:12:27 > 2:12:33up, say in the Hague, where there be an international court to try these
2:12:33 > 2:12:37people for their crimes. My opinion is simply this. These are criminals.
2:12:37 > 2:12:44The crimes that they have committed are atrocious, but elevating it to a
2:12:44 > 2:12:47special tribunal status is actually elevating them in many respects.
2:12:47 > 2:12:51They are criminals. They should be tried in my opinion in the criminal
2:12:51 > 2:12:56courts, and the system is set up to do that.When they are tried, they
2:12:56 > 2:13:02are tight as citizens of the UK, are they?There is some debate about
2:13:02 > 2:13:05whether they are citizens of the UK or not. The Home Office are
2:13:05 > 2:13:09declining to comment at the moment. In many respects that it's a red
2:13:09 > 2:13:14herring. As far as the legislation is concerned, for terrorist
2:13:14 > 2:13:18offences, it is irrelevant as to whether they are British citizens,
2:13:18 > 2:13:24or not. If they are brought to this country, they can be tried. The only
2:13:24 > 2:13:27relevant on citizenship, here, and it may be a positive thing if they
2:13:27 > 2:13:31are not citizens, is that if they are in need America, ministers in
2:13:31 > 2:13:36this country are not obliged to apply to oppose their extradition to
2:13:36 > 2:13:40another country, so if they are not citizens, they are not protected by
2:13:40 > 2:13:43extradition.So what would be the consequence of tonnes of sentences?
2:13:43 > 2:13:50If they were not citizens?Again, non-citizens all over the world
2:13:50 > 2:13:54could be tried in this country. The sentencing parameters are as wide as
2:13:54 > 2:13:58they would be poor citizens. I would anticipate that these people, if
2:13:58 > 2:14:07they are found guilty would spend the rest of their lives in prison.
2:14:07 > 2:14:09The defence minister, Tobias Ellwood, has says that it is
2:14:09 > 2:14:14important to try these people and not send them to Guantanamo Bay.
2:14:14 > 2:14:19What is your view?I agree with the Minister on this. He spoke extremely
2:14:19 > 2:14:27clearly. By saying that, Guantanamo Bay in many respects is discredited.
2:14:27 > 2:14:31It is an extra legal procedure where they are allowed to torture people,
2:14:31 > 2:14:34and effectively do what we are fighting against in terms of as far
2:14:34 > 2:14:39as the terrorist are concerned. In my opinion, it has been proven to be
2:14:39 > 2:14:44a mistake, and it is not conducive to moving on in the future and
2:14:44 > 2:14:48sorting this out. I emphasise, in my opinion, the criminal courts,
2:14:48 > 2:14:52whether it be in America or in this country, they are set up to deal
2:14:52 > 2:14:59with this, we should not grand eyes these people by setting up a special
2:14:59 > 2:15:07tribunal.It is interesting when you hear Bethany... These two are
2:15:07 > 2:15:15connected with a group that killed 27 hostages. The Defence Secretary
2:15:15 > 2:15:19Williamson recently called for them to be hunted down and killed in the
2:15:19 > 2:15:24Middle East rather than be allowed to return to the UK. Many will
2:15:24 > 2:15:30sympathise with that. Why bother bringing them back here?Well, I can
2:15:30 > 2:15:34understand people who are either victims or brief saying that. These
2:15:34 > 2:15:37are terrible things for people to deal with. But, for a minister to
2:15:37 > 2:15:41say it, I think it is rather infantile. The important thing here
2:15:41 > 2:15:46is if we can obtain people who are alive, they can be questioned,
2:15:46 > 2:15:50information can be obtained for them. They could be invaluable to
2:15:50 > 2:15:59combating these terrorists, and maybe
2:15:59 > 2:16:01maybe invaluable for finding out people who are alive who are
2:16:01 > 2:16:04hostages and helping them. Plus, the fact that they can be brought to
2:16:04 > 2:16:07justice, and we can hear from a proper court in the sort of
2:16:07 > 2:16:09democratic courts that to want to protect against these terrorists, we
2:16:09 > 2:16:11can actually hear, the public can hear exactly what has gone on, and
2:16:11 > 2:16:14the evidence and atrocities that these people are alleged to have
2:16:14 > 2:16:18committed. So, yes it is necessary in a combat situation, and they're
2:16:18 > 2:16:22not suggesting it should not be done, but if there is a chance of
2:16:22 > 2:16:26taking these people alive, they should be, not because of a
2:16:26 > 2:16:31particularly namby-pamby view on human rights, say, but for practical
2:16:31 > 2:16:40reasons.Thank you very much for talking to us this morning.
2:16:40 > 2:16:47Let's see what the weather has got in store.
2:16:47 > 2:16:51This is from one of our wet the watchers in south Wales. Cloudy for
2:16:51 > 2:16:56many of us, we will see rain at some stage today. It is already beginning
2:16:56 > 2:17:01to pull away from Northern Ireland and Scotland. More widely brighter,
2:17:01 > 2:17:04tomorrow, with some sunshine, but snow showers around, an indication
2:17:04 > 2:17:07that tomorrow is going to be colder than today. It is windy throughout
2:17:07 > 2:17:14the weekend, but tomorrow... This is what is around the UK at the moment.
2:17:14 > 2:17:20This system has been moving in. That is spreading rain south-eastwards
2:17:20 > 2:17:23across the UK. Maybe some early sunny spells the very furthest east
2:17:23 > 2:17:28you are in in blood, but the cloud will increase through the afternoon,
2:17:28 > 2:17:32and the outbreaks of rain spreading south east. Quieter and drier
2:17:32 > 2:17:35weather through Northern Ireland and Scotland, but the area of rain will
2:17:35 > 2:17:40be coming to Northern Ireland at the end of the afternoon. A snapshot, a
2:17:40 > 2:17:44lot of clear whether in Scotland in the afternoon. That is why you can
2:17:44 > 2:17:48see the Greenland, here. Some sunshine through the afternoon. Just
2:17:48 > 2:17:53one or two match hours in the Northwest. Thereafter some holes in
2:17:53 > 2:17:56that, but by the Shari outbreaks of rain heading across the East
2:17:56 > 2:18:00Midlands, East Anglia and south-east England. Now, temperatures, today,
2:18:00 > 2:18:04it has been a cold start because eastern Scotland and eastern
2:18:04 > 2:18:11England. It will be topping at about five - 7 degrees. 7-10d elsewhere.
2:18:11 > 2:18:16Some pieces could be as high as 12. Six Nations rugby action, this
2:18:16 > 2:18:22ground has got sunshine at it, but there will not be much on offer at
2:18:22 > 2:18:30Twickenham or in Dublin, this afternoon. Gales around tonight, 60
2:18:30 > 2:18:33mph winds across some areas, and some snow falling in southern
2:18:33 > 2:18:39Scotland into northern England. Early modest... And then
2:18:39 > 2:18:43particularly a snow shower from the north-west in the night, as it turns
2:18:43 > 2:18:47frosty and icy, less cold across southern areas compared to last
2:18:47 > 2:18:54night. And then, the wind is north-westerly, and that is colder,
2:18:54 > 2:18:58and we will see these increasingly winter showers penetrating further
2:18:58 > 2:19:02south east across the UK during the day, but you can see errors of land
2:19:02 > 2:19:05that indicate that it is not going to be wet all the time. There will
2:19:05 > 2:19:10be some good sunny spells around. These are the highest temperatures
2:19:10 > 2:19:13that we will have. When you factor in that north-westerly wind there
2:19:13 > 2:19:17will be a definite chill tomorrow, compared to today. That is how your
2:19:17 > 2:19:24weekend is shaping. Thank you very much, see you later.
2:19:24 > 2:19:33Now to a blockbuster legal battle. Uber has settled its dispute.
2:19:33 > 2:19:37Now to a blockbuster legal battle. Uber has settled its dispute. It was
2:19:37 > 2:19:45accused of stealing trade secrets. All of a sudden, they struck a deal.
2:19:45 > 2:19:51Our north American reporter has been following the twists and turns. This
2:19:51 > 2:19:57case captivated silicon valley. Goodbye's former chief executive is
2:19:57 > 2:20:06considered by many to be the very embodiment of silicon valley's
2:20:06 > 2:20:14culture over aggressive ambition. In court this week, he was accused of a
2:20:14 > 2:20:20grand plan to steal technology from Google and... Jurors heard how he
2:20:20 > 2:20:25had a meeting with a then Google employee, one of the world's leading
2:20:25 > 2:20:32expert in this field. It was urged that the latter 's goal more than
2:20:32 > 2:20:3640,000 confidential documents and then left Google to set up his own
2:20:36 > 2:20:45company, and then sold it to Uber. In a remarkable moment during the
2:20:45 > 2:20:52trial, the prosecution said that he acted like a real-life...The point
2:20:52 > 2:20:59is, that we, for lack of a better word -- greed is good, greed is
2:20:59 > 2:21:09right.But, convincing the jurors that he was a slippery operator was
2:21:09 > 2:21:14not going to be enough. They had to prove that Uber was using the stolen
2:21:14 > 2:21:18technology.The risk for Google would have been that they were
2:21:18 > 2:21:23bullied. And that they went after a competitor to excess competition
2:21:23 > 2:21:29rather than to vindicate their legitimate intellectual property
2:21:29 > 2:21:34rights. Conversely, Uber, by continuing, what if we lose the
2:21:34 > 2:21:37whole thing?And so, this settlement is perhaps a good result for both
2:21:37 > 2:21:46sides, as part of the deal, Uber decided to give up 0.34% of its
2:21:46 > 2:21:53company. In a statement, it was an insistence that no trade secrets
2:21:53 > 2:22:00were stolen, and if they had allowed the child to play out, Uber would
2:22:00 > 2:22:11have won. We will never know.
2:22:11 > 2:22:15Good morning. We have got to talk to you about what is happening with
2:22:15 > 2:22:19North Korea and South Korea. We should be really focusing on the
2:22:19 > 2:22:24sport, but actually, this is a big move to talk about this in the
2:22:24 > 2:22:31tension by hand written letter from the North Korean leader to the South
2:22:31 > 2:22:39Korean leader. All the while, South Korea has been told, don't engage.I
2:22:39 > 2:22:45think it is a big move. Donald Trump will want to talk about this, but he
2:22:45 > 2:22:53was Bennett in such a way to suggest that his aggressive and match over
2:22:53 > 2:23:01policy and and ways of dealing with things, has clearly led to this. I
2:23:01 > 2:23:11think that the president will spin it in such a way as to imply that he
2:23:11 > 2:23:22is the instigator of this.The folder that she was carrying in, no
2:23:22 > 2:23:31one knew what it was.
2:23:31 > 2:23:35one knew what it was. Della mac for a move like this to happen, to see
2:23:35 > 2:23:38north and South Korean athletes together at the opening ceremony, it
2:23:38 > 2:23:41really does suggest that there has been a shift, but we have seen these
2:23:41 > 2:23:45kinds of things before. As much as we should be optimistic, we should
2:23:45 > 2:23:52also be careful. Talking about relationships, with big
2:23:52 > 2:24:00partnerships. PE you. This is one that we cannot ignore. -- the year.
2:24:00 > 2:24:04Michel Barnier has said that the UK has got to be careful about what
2:24:04 > 2:24:11they demand.This is to do with the transition deal that everybody is
2:24:11 > 2:24:15talking about. Michel Barnier has stuck to a consistent line. He has
2:24:15 > 2:24:18argued that realistically, the EU negotiators do not know what the
2:24:18 > 2:24:22British one. That the British need to be very careful in hedging their
2:24:22 > 2:24:27bets, that they don't end up coming off worse in these negotiations. I
2:24:27 > 2:24:32think it is clear to see that Michel Barnier feels that in the power
2:24:32 > 2:24:38dynamic between the EU and written, PE you hold all the cards. David
2:24:38 > 2:24:49Davis would argue that that is not the case. -- EU.It is almost as if
2:24:49 > 2:24:53by saying that, anything can be said and it is act defined. Do you feel
2:24:53 > 2:24:58that this is a bit different or is it on that Rocky Road?I think it is
2:24:58 > 2:25:04our natural key road. But thereafter phrases that you see all the time.
2:25:04 > 2:25:11Such as, we don't want to give away our negotiating stance. So, I think
2:25:11 > 2:25:16it is inevitable that we one year into a two year negotiating period,
2:25:16 > 2:25:20which is clearly probably going to extend beyond that, so I think it is
2:25:20 > 2:25:24to be expected that there will be ups and downs in this process. It is
2:25:24 > 2:25:30not going to be present. I would not expect them to be best friends,
2:25:30 > 2:25:33these are tough negotiations.We have been following the Olympics,
2:25:33 > 2:25:39and there is always the thing, snowboarders are cool. So called. I
2:25:39 > 2:25:45only say that because I am learning. And this is what is being picked up
2:25:45 > 2:25:49in the Times, today. There is knitting going out and some partying
2:25:49 > 2:25:54going on.It is amazing. I love it. It is a really specific take on the
2:25:54 > 2:25:58Winter Olympics. It argues that many of the athletes there are very
2:25:58 > 2:26:03hard-working and devoted to what they do, but there is a separation.
2:26:03 > 2:26:06You have the individuals that are engaging in things like the
2:26:06 > 2:26:16bobsleigher, none of which I really understand, to be honest, but they
2:26:16 > 2:26:26are down to an watching Mr -- knitting people. But then there's
2:26:26 > 2:26:30also the hard-core snowboarders. Isn't admitting cool, now?
2:26:30 > 2:26:37Supposedly, it is on the comeback. But they are not seen as cool
2:26:37 > 2:26:46individuals, but I think they see them as knitting cinnamon bun
2:26:46 > 2:26:53eating...So cinnamon buns are not call?Apparently not.I'm going to
2:26:53 > 2:26:58have to change all today's plans. Should we finish with this wonderful
2:26:58 > 2:27:03story? We love stories about brave dogs. This is one of the police
2:27:03 > 2:27:08dogs.This is one of the police dogs, his name is thin. The story is
2:27:08 > 2:27:14about how brave he was. He was involved in 300 arrests, and he was
2:27:14 > 2:27:17stabbed with a ten inch kitchen knife, and then when he had already
2:27:17 > 2:27:23been injured, he acted put himself in harm 's way again to defend
2:27:23 > 2:27:28his...And the image you can see there is when he was injured.The
2:27:28 > 2:27:36prognosis was that he would not make it. But, luckily he did. He is now
2:27:36 > 2:27:43with his handler, and the tag line of the story is
2:27:47 > 2:27:57of the story is that Finn now gets to relax.I am very pleased, but
2:27:57 > 2:28:02there's also a debate about this. They are part of our force?They are
2:28:02 > 2:28:11a incredibly bored and part of a police fall. Finn has saved many of
2:28:11 > 2:28:17the police force from dangerous situations. I am extremely glad that
2:28:17 > 2:28:25he is fine.OK, time for a cinnamon bun.
2:28:25 > 2:28:30bun. You've just said that she wasn't cool because she wants to Lee
2:28:30 > 2:28:34Disson and bun? So, do have? Or don't have one. It is already
2:28:34 > 2:28:38shaping up to be a historic Winter Olympics, so will it be
2:28:38 > 2:28:48record-breaking 14 GB? Olympic -- the Team GB? We will have Amy
2:28:48 > 2:28:59Williams. That quiet, calm year that we wanted was not happen, will it,
2:28:59 > 2:29:03Christian? These links to Russia are what hangs over this presidency.
2:29:03 > 2:29:11Jean-Claude Juncker saying that don't believe Brexit will happen.A
2:29:11 > 2:29:22year of Trump gives us a. -- a lots to talk about.
2:29:53 > 2:29:54Hello, this is Breakfast with Naga Munchetty and Charlie Stayt.
2:29:54 > 2:30:02Coming up before nine, Nick will have the weather.
2:30:03 > 2:30:04Mike will have the sport.
2:30:04 > 2:30:06But first, a summary of this morning's main news.
2:30:06 > 2:30:09The North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has invited the South Korean
2:30:09 > 2:30:11president Moon Jae-in to visit him at the earliest date possible.
2:30:11 > 2:30:13The unprecidented invitation was given in the form
2:30:13 > 2:30:15of a handwritten letter by the sister of the
2:30:15 > 2:30:17North Korean leader.
2:30:17 > 2:30:19It comes after the two sides shared a historic handshake
2:30:19 > 2:30:21at the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics
2:30:21 > 2:30:23in Pyeongchang.
2:30:23 > 2:30:25It's been seen as a direct challenge to the Trump administration,
2:30:25 > 2:30:30which had urged caution rather than engagement with the North.
2:30:30 > 2:30:32The government has condemned the "appalling abuse of vulnerable
2:30:32 > 2:30:35people in Haiti" and says Oxfam has serious questions to answer over
2:30:35 > 2:30:36claims the charity covered up
2:30:36 > 2:30:39the use of prostitutes by some of its staff.
2:30:39 > 2:30:42Oxfam insists it publicised the action it took against the aid
2:30:42 > 2:30:43workers involved,
2:30:43 > 2:30:50some of whom were fired.
2:30:50 > 2:30:52However, the Times is reporting several went on to work
2:30:52 > 2:30:53for other charities,

2:34:47 > 2:34:52the slopes.It shows the power of sport, bringing nations together,
2:34:52 > 2:34:57bringing people together. It is all happening in Pyeongchang. The sport
2:34:57 > 2:35:00has been very dramatic as well, we have had our first gold medal for
2:35:00 > 2:35:12Sweden, in the first amend, the skiathlon. Years and years of
2:35:12 > 2:35:15preparation, so much work, it all comes down to how you learned after
2:35:15 > 2:35:21doing that 1440 in the air, four rotations, what must be going
2:35:21 > 2:35:26through your mind as you prepare to land... It was the headwind
2:35:26 > 2:35:34apparently, that has caused our disappointment in early events.You
2:35:34 > 2:35:38have got to trust that your body knows what to do. Automatically.
2:35:38 > 2:35:47Let's get the latest from Pyeongchang.
2:35:47 > 2:35:52The skiathlon in which Sweden won the first gold of the games,

2:36:04 > 2:36:08Chilly end to what has been a flax day for Team GB, what has been the
2:36:08 > 2:36:16reaction to the disappointment? The wind temperature has dropped, it is
2:36:16 > 2:36:20expected -30 in the wind over the weekend, very cold, and not the
2:36:20 > 2:36:24first state of these Winter Olympics that Team GB were hoping for, after
2:36:24 > 2:36:31the anticipation and buzz of the opening ceremony, especially where
2:36:31 > 2:36:37our slopestyle snowboarders were concerned, Jamie Nicholls, big-name,
2:36:37 > 2:36:42first run went OK but did not get the judge judges marked he was
2:36:42 > 2:36:49opened for, second, he fell, missed out on qualifying by 1.97 of a mark,
2:36:49 > 2:36:52so close, disappointment for Jamie Nicholls. Rowan Coulthard did not
2:36:52 > 2:36:58qualify, neither did Billy Morgan, a very well-known British snowboarder,
2:36:58 > 2:37:02big notes for him, he finished two second run on his back. -- big hopes
2:37:02 > 2:37:11for him. -- Rowan Coultas. But they do have chances in the big air
2:37:11 > 2:37:15event, and a moment of history as well, first gold medal of these
2:37:15 > 2:37:21games awarded, Charlotte Calor of Sweden took gold, the big story out
2:37:21 > 2:37:27of that is that market Dearden, of Norway, she has now become the most
2:37:27 > 2:37:30decorated female Olympian, she now has 11 Olympic medals from the
2:37:30 > 2:37:35Winter games. Moment of history. -- Charlotte Kalla. Not the best of
2:37:35 > 2:37:42days for Team GB. We will be looking to pick ourselves up a little later
2:37:42 > 2:37:50on, when Christie takes to the ice rink.
2:37:50 > 2:37:54So when and where, will Team GB's medals come from.
2:37:54 > 2:37:56Someone who knows what it takes,
2:37:56 > 2:37:58is former skeleton racer Amy Williams,
2:37:58 > 2:38:02who won gold at the Vancouver games in 2010.
2:38:02 > 2:38:07Britain's only medal. You must be there again.When you watch the
2:38:07 > 2:38:10opening ceremony yesterday, you are transported back, cannot believe it
2:38:10 > 2:38:19was eight years ago at Vancouver. The whole jeopardy, not being able
2:38:19 > 2:38:22to land properly, you know what it takes to get down the skeleton track
2:38:22 > 2:38:28safely, Elise Christie, quarter to 11, what can she do to minimise the
2:38:28 > 2:38:32risk of what happened to her four years ago, ending in disappointment.
2:38:32 > 2:38:35That is Winter sports, you have all the other elements, the conditions,
2:38:35 > 2:38:40the snow, forever changing environment, Elise Christie, in her
2:38:40 > 2:38:44rink, in her environment, it is the same, but then battling it out with
2:38:44 > 2:38:48everyone else, all the different athletes trying to get over that
2:38:48 > 2:38:55finish line first. Like four years ago, did not go her way, but she is
2:38:55 > 2:39:00mentally ready, she has had a lot of work to come back from those for
2:39:00 > 2:39:05the. She's in a really good place. And we hope that will not be
2:39:05 > 2:39:10happening. Fingers crossed, she will breeze through the qualifying rounds
2:39:10 > 2:39:14and she is going for it, giving it her all.Eight years ago when you
2:39:14 > 2:39:18are doing this, thinking about social media, she struggled a lot
2:39:18 > 2:39:23with trolling and a lot of abuse on social media and I suppose it was
2:39:23 > 2:39:28not as prevalent when you were there eight years ago.I don't even know
2:39:28 > 2:39:33if Twitter and Instagram existed, took me a few years to get into it
2:39:33 > 2:39:37all, whereas athletes now, already out there, they are stars before
2:39:37 > 2:39:41they have performed and got their medals, very different environment,
2:39:41 > 2:39:47psychologically difficult.Are you told to stay away, you must talk to
2:39:47 > 2:39:51people, are you told to stay away from your smartphone and...?
2:39:51 > 2:39:56Absolutely for me it was Facebook, I'm not going to go on it at all,
2:39:56 > 2:40:00looking at it afterwards, and I would advise athletes now, stay away
2:40:00 > 2:40:04from it, does not help your performance. On the flip side, some
2:40:04 > 2:40:10people need it, they need the boost. It is an individual thing.Talking
2:40:10 > 2:40:14about the margins of error, in the Winter Olympics particularly, this
2:40:14 > 2:40:18is you competing. Some people have said you do not think about anything
2:40:18 > 2:40:23as you are going down, it is so quick... So much going on, the
2:40:23 > 2:40:27noise, you have talked about the noise.It is a real fine line, your
2:40:27 > 2:40:33head is full in one sense, 16 Corners, you change the angles of
2:40:33 > 2:40:38the sled as you go around each corner, finding the quickest line,
2:40:38 > 2:40:42thinking about power and speed and explosiveness of the block, you
2:40:42 > 2:40:46break it down, at the same time you want to be at the start of the run
2:40:46 > 2:40:48almost with an empty head, thinking about those first few steps,
2:40:48 > 2:40:56squinting, getting on the sled. -- sprinting. Then, corner number one,
2:40:56 > 2:41:00you have to know exactly what you are doing, you have to have plans in
2:41:00 > 2:41:04your head, all within a split second.At the same time, a enormous
2:41:04 > 2:41:08force pushing your head onto the ice, and with incredible neck
2:41:08 > 2:41:12strength...Yes, three or 4Gs of pressure, if you go into a corner
2:41:12 > 2:41:17wrong, the Force new will smash your head into the ice, all of a sudden
2:41:17 > 2:41:22you cannot see anything, your peripheral red and is working push
2:41:22 > 2:41:27you around the corner. -- your peripheral vision. I have hit my
2:41:27 > 2:41:33chin, you do that sometimes. Goodness me.It is a lot of
2:41:33 > 2:41:37different factors, not your vision that is first sense!I remember
2:41:37 > 2:41:43talking about, the snowboard, and you talk about keeping your head,
2:41:43 > 2:41:47sometimes it is instinctive, you have to learn to clear your head,
2:41:47 > 2:41:51and sled instincts take over, and trust your body, that is quite
2:41:51 > 2:41:55difficult, in those circumstances, especially when you are not used to
2:41:55 > 2:41:58those crowds.You can have your perfect line, you're perfect trick
2:41:58 > 2:42:02in your head, you might suddenly take off or go into a corner
2:42:02 > 2:42:07slightly differently and you cannot do that, within those moments you
2:42:07 > 2:42:10have two stay calm and change it in your head, or us, you cannot
2:42:10 > 2:42:15practice with all the crowds, with all the cowbells going, and the
2:42:15 > 2:42:18environment, you cannot practice that, quite a tough thing for these
2:42:18 > 2:42:28athletes.In among us sofa-dwellers, we think that all of you are a
2:42:28 > 2:42:32little bit mad, because of all the risks, but among you athletes, who
2:42:32 > 2:42:36do you think are the mad ones competing at the Winter Olympics, is
2:42:36 > 2:42:40there some group where you say, those ones!The bobsleigh guys think
2:42:40 > 2:42:44that we are mental and we think they mental and vice versa, we have
2:42:44 > 2:42:50respect, but then I look at ski slope, I look at... The half pipe
2:42:50 > 2:42:55guys... That is mental! Higher than a double-decker bus! They would
2:42:55 > 2:42:58probably never do skeleton. You have respect for each other, because
2:42:58 > 2:43:08everyone is slightly bonkers.There is a piece about who is cool and who
2:43:08 > 2:43:11is not.The snowboarders, they have their baggy clothes, there is sense
2:43:11 > 2:43:16in that, they need to move more, they have a lingo, they always win
2:43:16 > 2:43:21the call competition. You know when you are not call, when you say the
2:43:21 > 2:43:29word lingo...LAUGHTER -- when you are not cool. My Nice
2:43:29 > 2:43:34and nephew are five and six, now they are old enough to watch, and
2:43:34 > 2:43:39they thought, it is auntie Amy on the TV. -- niece. My brother was
2:43:39 > 2:43:42having to explain that auntie Amy has won a medal, and this is what
2:43:42 > 2:43:46she does, they are watching now, new fans of winter sport, that is what
2:43:46 > 2:43:50is so great.Look forward to seeing you on the television later on with
2:43:50 > 2:43:55the coverage. The skeleton start next Friday. Today, it is the start
2:43:55 > 2:44:06of the loose. -- luge.
2:44:06 > 2:44:08The Six Nations continues this weekend with a mouth-watering
2:44:08 > 2:44:14clash at Twickenham this afternoon.
2:44:14 > 2:44:17Before this tournament most people would have said that England were
2:44:17 > 2:44:21clear favourite, but not any more, having seen the way that injury hit
2:44:21 > 2:44:26Wales played Scotland last week. John Watson is live at Twickenham.
2:44:26 > 2:44:33Just superbly built up, isn't it, huge game, all the talk about Wales,
2:44:33 > 2:44:37but they blew Scotland away, hugely impressive. Good morning from
2:44:37 > 2:44:40Twickenham, feels as cold as Pyeongchang here this morning but I
2:44:40 > 2:44:44tell you what, things will get heated up inside a little later on,
2:44:44 > 2:44:4982,000 fans packing in for the big one and if England are met by a wall
2:44:49 > 2:44:52of Welsh resistance later, I tell you what, that Welsh defence will
2:44:52 > 2:44:57feel as big as that. It is set up beautifully, a win for both on the
2:44:57 > 2:45:04opening weekend, England getting past Italy, scoring seven tries. Two
2:45:04 > 2:45:09for Anthony Watson and two for Sam Sumyk is, coming in for two changes.
2:45:09 > 2:45:14Eddie Jones has masterminded this superb run for England, 23 wins out
2:45:14 > 2:45:21of 20. -- 23 wins out of 25. England looking to get another win under
2:45:21 > 2:45:33their belt. -- Sam Simmons. Ten wins in ten years since he has been in
2:45:33 > 2:45:37charge of Wales, played so well against Scotland, every talking
2:45:37 > 2:45:41about how the injuries will affect Wales, and changed side,
2:45:41 > 2:45:45unsurprising in the way that they played, one stat worthy of note,
2:45:45 > 2:45:48Warren Gatland took charge of Wales ten years ago today, they came here
2:45:48 > 2:45:52and beat England that state, Eddie Jones will be hoping that history
2:45:52 > 2:45:58will not be repeating itself later. -- and beat England that day.First
2:45:58 > 2:46:00time I have ever seen you looking shorter than those around you!
2:46:00 > 2:46:08LAUGHTER
2:46:08 > 2:46:10It's also round two, of the women's six nations,
2:46:10 > 2:46:15England host Wales and Scotland take on France.
2:46:15 > 2:46:17In domestic rugby, history was made last night when
2:46:17 > 2:46:20Joy Neville became the first woman to referee a Pro14 match,
2:46:20 > 2:46:21taking charge of Ulster against Southern Kings,
2:46:21 > 2:46:24and she saw Ulster dominate the game, winning 59 points to 10,
2:46:24 > 2:46:29with Craig Gilroy, scoring 3 of their 9 tries.
2:46:29 > 2:46:37And we'll see rugby league history today,
2:46:37 > 2:46:45with the first Super League game
2:46:47 > 2:46:51Held outside Europe, Wigan will play Hull FC, in New South Wales,
2:46:51 > 2:47:00Australia. There was a thrilling finish to last night's game, after a
2:47:00 > 2:47:06last-minute try
2:47:06 > 2:47:08last-minute try from Salford, Gareth O'Brien had to land this kick, to
2:47:08 > 2:47:11earn them a point but it drifted just wide - so Wakefield won by
2:47:11 > 2:47:1714-12.
2:47:17 > 2:47:1914-12. Now, Amy William's seat on the sofa has been taken by Dan
2:47:19 > 2:47:22Walker, who can tell us all about today's Football Focus.Spurs
2:47:22 > 2:47:24against Arsenal is going to get a lot of attention. Jan Vertonghen, we
2:47:24 > 2:47:28will be talking with him about where Spurs are and where he hopes they
2:47:28 > 2:47:35will be. As well as talking about today's game, he has reflected upon
2:47:35 > 2:47:38the fact that he is Belgian and will be taking on quite a lot of his
2:47:38 > 2:47:42Spurs team-mates in the World Cup when they play each other. This is
2:47:42 > 2:47:49what he has said about that.First time in my career that I will face
2:47:49 > 2:47:52Mike Tottenham team-mates, it is going to be something very special.
2:47:52 > 2:48:03I watched the draw with Eric Dier. Oh my god! No!
2:48:03 > 2:48:08Oh my god! No!We spoke about it the next day but ever since, no one ever
2:48:08 > 2:48:13mentioned it again.Plenty more from Jan Vertonghen, talking to us. He
2:48:13 > 2:48:17watched it with Eric Dier, who plays for England, they will be heading
2:48:17 > 2:48:20off against each other. Not very happy, made the same noise. Chelsea
2:48:20 > 2:48:25in prices to talk about as well, Kasper Schmeichel on the programme,
2:48:25 > 2:48:29interestingly, Riyad Mahrez refused to train with Leicester City 46
2:48:29 > 2:48:32sessions, he trained this week after not getting the move to Manchester
2:48:32 > 2:48:40City. -- for six sessions. Speaking with Sami Khedira, who plays for
2:48:40 > 2:48:46Juventus, they take on Spurs in the Champions League. Lovely story about
2:48:46 > 2:48:49a team that played in the 50 of Scottish football, fifth round of
2:48:49 > 2:48:53the Scottish cup this weekend, they have travelled 2000 all -- 2000

2:49:14 > 2:49:19last night it was always a pleasure to share a dressing room with him.
2:49:19 > 2:49:26-- Liam Miller.Only 36. Absolutely ginned fall the clubs he played for,
2:49:26 > 2:49:33inspired a Leeds fightback, 3-0, Leah Miller brought them back to win

2:50:04 > 2:50:07It is colder than yesterday, just as cold tomorrow in the wind, this is
2:50:07 > 2:50:12the view that many of us are waking up to. -- some of us. Western

2:50:18 > 2:50:23rain for many of us, and tomorrow, writer, blue skies, snow showers
2:50:23 > 2:50:28around. Cold and wind to content with. Recent satellite picture, what
2:50:28 > 2:50:35is around, good deal of cloud, because the rain is falling, and

2:50:47 > 2:50:49Northern Ireland, more rain welcome back to Northern Ireland later
2:50:49 > 2:50:54today, so be aware, it will turn wetter once again. Zooming in,
2:50:54 > 2:50:59detailed look at things, a lot of dry, clear whether in Scotland, Sun
2:50:59 > 2:51:03will be shining to stay few showers into the north-west, but after some
2:51:03 > 2:51:06sunshine, rain coming back to Northern Ireland, dry of the

2:52:49 > 2:52:55payments andt the benefit can be worth up
2:52:55 > 2:52:56to £100 a week but will stop
2:52:56 > 2:52:59at the beginning of April, when claimants will have
2:52:59 > 2:53:00to apply for a loan instead.
2:53:00 > 2:53:03Paul Lewis from Radio 4's 'Moneybox' is in our London studio.
2:53:03 > 2:53:05If people are not prepared this will be very concerning. 95% of people
2:53:05 > 2:53:08have been written to, if they do not apply for the loan, they're alone
2:53:08 > 2:53:13could be at risk because the benefit payment to the lender lender. , and
2:53:13 > 2:53:16if they have not agreed to take out a loan instead to pay the interest
2:53:16 > 2:53:19than the lender will not get their money and could start repossession
2:53:19 > 2:53:31proceedings. -- to the lender will stop.
2:53:31 > 2:53:38stop. Only 70,000 out of 110,000 have not -- only 700 out of 110,000
2:53:38 > 2:53:43have begun the process. The lender will come after them, they will not
2:53:43 > 2:53:51know what to do.That issue, if anyone is at all concerned, they
2:53:51 > 2:53:55need to talk to their lender, to make sure they are aware.They need
2:53:55 > 2:54:00to look at the leaflet and in my view take out the loan, there is not
2:54:00 > 2:54:04really another alternative. One of the problems with the loan is they
2:54:04 > 2:54:11will then do the interest, which can be several thousand pounds a year,
2:54:11 > 2:54:17interest charged on that, 1.7%, the debt will build up, over the years,
2:54:17 > 2:54:21and if they are on the benefit for a long time, and some of the people I
2:54:21 > 2:54:26have spoken with, a lady who is a carer for her disabled son, could be
2:54:26 > 2:54:30on it for a considerable time, they will find it is a big debt against
2:54:30 > 2:54:35the value of the home when they come to sell its.How does the Department
2:54:35 > 2:54:40for Work and Pensions defend this, there is a saving, £170 million.
2:54:40 > 2:54:44That is correct, the figure they give, it is a saving in a
2:54:44 > 2:54:49book-keeping way, they will not be spending £170 million, they will be
2:54:49 > 2:54:52lending 170 million, so it will actually be on a different part of
2:54:52 > 2:54:55the government accounts, a bit like student loans, so there will not
2:54:55 > 2:55:00really be saving it in any normal sense but yes, they will stop paying
2:55:00 > 2:55:03170 million and they will lend it to people, and a lot of people have
2:55:03 > 2:55:10made this points to me, if you are on this benefit, someone's house is
2:55:10 > 2:55:13likely to increase in value, it is reasonable that anybody who has
2:55:13 > 2:55:17received financial help should be asked to pay that back when the
2:55:17 > 2:55:20house is sold, and a lot of people say that but what people don't
2:55:20 > 2:55:25realise is that, the lady I was talking about a moment ago, if she
2:55:25 > 2:55:29did not get help with her mortgage interest, moving out of her home
2:55:29 > 2:55:32into rented accommodation and that would cost the government a great
2:55:32 > 2:55:36deal more to pay her rent, that money would also be going to pay
2:55:36 > 2:55:43probably a landlord's mortgage.The interest rate, 1.7%, how competitive
2:55:43 > 2:55:47is that?Well, of course, that is a low rate, this is interest on the
2:55:47 > 2:55:50loan that you take out to pay the interest. Interest on interest, low
2:55:50 > 2:55:56rate but it mounts up over the years, not definitely 1.7%, has not
2:55:56 > 2:55:59been announced yet, that kind of rate, it is the rate that the
2:55:59 > 2:56:04government will pay to borrow the money.Lovely to see you, and you
2:56:04 > 2:56:15will be on at midday, Radio 4.Yes, midday, Money box.
2:56:15 > 2:56:17How should we pay for our parks?
2:56:17 > 2:56:22In Liverpool personal trainers, professional photographers and tour
2:56:22 > 2:56:24guides will have to pay around £150 for a permit
2:56:24 > 2:56:26if they want to use the city's recreational areas.
2:56:26 > 2:56:28At a time of squeezed local authority budgets
2:56:28 > 2:56:30and rising council tax, should businesses who profit
2:56:30 > 2:56:32from using the spaces contribute, or does this go
2:56:32 > 2:56:34against the principle of open access for all?
2:56:34 > 2:56:40Claire Fallon is in Prince's Park in Liverpool this morning.
2:56:40 > 2:56:48Open space, everyone should have access, that is the question.
2:56:48 > 2:56:50access, that is the question.That is the question, miserable weather
2:56:50 > 2:56:55here, as to be said, all the same, we are in beautiful surroundings,
2:56:55 > 2:57:00keeping parks looking like this, keeping them safe for the people use
2:57:00 > 2:57:04them, it costs money, local councils, in recent years, money has
2:57:04 > 2:57:09not always been in big supplier, if I can put it that way, that is why
2:57:09 > 2:57:15we have this scheme being introduced in Liverpool. -- big supply. People
2:57:15 > 2:57:19who make money using the parks will have to pay to use them with a
2:57:19 > 2:57:25permit system being brought in. This councillor is from the City Council,
2:57:25 > 2:57:28so, how will this work and who will have to pay for one of these
2:57:28 > 2:57:34permits, they cost £150.It varies, the permits will be for people
2:57:34 > 2:57:38running fitness training regimes, lots of groups are excluded, so we
2:57:38 > 2:57:43have a park run which is excluded, they are here every Saturday
2:57:43 > 2:57:47morning, all them will be free. Friends groups, activities, will be
2:57:47 > 2:57:52free, any events organised by any city groups up to 200 people are
2:57:52 > 2:57:55free but if you are organising a big concert or some other event, you
2:57:55 > 2:57:59will have to pay. Then we have an explosion of small businesses
2:57:59 > 2:58:04operating in parks, which are making money, and we are imposing a charge
2:58:04 > 2:58:10of £150 a year, less than £3 a week seems reasonable to us.Quickly, dog
2:58:10 > 2:58:15walkers are excluded, rational dog walkers but how do you tell the
2:58:15 > 2:58:19difference between a group of friends exercising and a personal
2:58:19 > 2:58:23trainer with clients.With difficulty, or obviously, we will be
2:58:23 > 2:58:27looking at dog walkers, among the more difficult once to identify, it
2:58:27 > 2:58:31will be suck it and see with these schemes.Thank you very much. Having
2:58:31 > 2:58:37a quick chat with Gemma. Personal trainer. You bring your clients into
2:58:37 > 2:58:43these parks.Probably not in this weather(!) you will have to pay for
2:58:43 > 2:58:46one of these permits.Yes, and as a freelance professional acrobat
2:58:46 > 2:58:50professional with a small business I'm not delighted because I need to
2:58:50 > 2:58:55keep my costs down as much as possible however, I am torn.-- I
2:58:55 > 2:59:00have been a resident of Liverpool for 19 years, I love these green
2:59:00 > 2:59:03spaces, I want them to be kept beautiful, for my own pleasure and
2:59:03 > 2:59:14for my clients. So I am not entirely sure how I feel about it.
2:59:14 > 2:59:17sure how I feel about it.Broadly, in order to keep parks good, you are
2:59:17 > 2:59:25in favour of this.I am, because, because I am very pleased that all
2:59:25 > 2:59:33charities immunity events, small events, like park run and friends
2:59:33 > 2:59:37groups, I am the chair of friends of the lovely park, Princes part, will
2:59:37 > 2:59:43be free, but for people having businesses in a park, then I think
2:59:43 > 2:59:47it is fair enough to pay something. -- Princes Park. Because we want to
2:59:47 > 2:59:53have our parks, in this park. We are producing a memorial to Nelson
2:59:53 > 2:59:57Mandela for instance and we need funding.The money has got to come
2:59:57 > 3:00:04from somewhere. Ain't you very much, really appreciate it. Variety of
3:00:04 > 3:00:09views, one thing, £350 if you want to land a helicopter. -- thank you
3:00:09 > 3:00:16very much.
3:00:50 > 3:00:53Hello this is Breakfast with Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty.
3:00:53 > 3:00:55The North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has invited the South Korean
3:00:55 > 3:01:02president to visit him at the earliest date possible.
3:01:02 > 3:01:04The invitation was given by the sister of the North Korean
3:01:04 > 3:01:07leader at a historic meeting at the Winter Olympics in Seoul.
3:01:07 > 3:01:10It would be the first meeting in more than a decade between the two
3:01:10 > 3:01:18leaders.
3:01:28 > 3:01:30Good morning it's Saturday the 10th of February.
3:01:30 > 3:01:31Also this morning:
3:01:31 > 3:01:33The government condemns the "appalling abuse of vulnerable
3:01:33 > 3:01:35people in Haiti" and says the charity Oxfam has serious
3:01:35 > 3:01:43questions to answer.
3:01:45 > 3:01:46A government minister says two captured members
3:01:46 > 3:01:49of the British Islamic State cell, nicknamed "the Beatles",
3:01:49 > 3:01:51should be considered for trial at the Hague.
3:01:51 > 3:01:53In sport, a crash landing for the Brits, on day one
3:01:53 > 3:01:54of the Winter Olympics.
3:01:54 > 3:01:57All 3 of the medal hopes in the snowboard slopestyle,
3:01:57 > 3:02:00try spectacular moves in the skies, but fail to make the final -
3:02:00 > 3:02:02with Billy Morgan falling on his final run.
3:02:02 > 3:02:03After disappointment for the snowboarders,
3:02:03 > 3:02:07all eyes are now on Elise Christie.
3:02:07 > 3:02:11I am live at Twickenham with all the build-up from the big one, England
3:02:11 > 3:02:16versus Wales in the six Nations championship. And, Nick has the
3:02:16 > 3:02:20weather forecast. Good morning, it is the weekend. Rain at some stage
3:02:20 > 3:02:24today for all of us. The chance of snow, especially later, and after
3:02:24 > 3:02:29being less cold, tomorrow is much colder again. I have got your
3:02:29 > 3:02:40forecast for you later.
3:02:44 > 3:02:47The bee invitation was given by the sister of the North Korean leader.
3:02:47 > 3:03:00Let's get more from our correspondence.
3:03:05 > 3:03:09I think we have got a problem with Stephen. We will make sure that we
3:03:09 > 3:03:12have got a connection. It is not happening at the moment. We will
3:03:12 > 3:03:18come back to that in a moment. Steven McDonald is in John Chang for
3:03:18 > 3:03:23us, there. Let's just show you the wider images, there. -- Pyeongchang
3:03:23 > 3:03:30for us. We knew that the two site would be meeting, and Stephen, think
3:03:30 > 3:03:36we can come back to you, now. This time, yesterday, we spoke, didn't
3:03:36 > 3:03:43we? And the question mark was, was there a hand shake? This morning,
3:03:43 > 3:03:49things have changed significantly? Absolutely. The thaw between north
3:03:49 > 3:03:54and South Korea continues here at the Winter Olympics. We now have
3:03:54 > 3:04:01this remarkable invitation from the leader of the North, from the South
3:04:01 > 3:04:05Korean president to visit at his earliest possible convenience. This
3:04:05 > 3:04:10came from a letter handwritten by his sister. Kim Yo-jong went into
3:04:10 > 3:04:13the presidential blue house, where there is this high-level North
3:04:13 > 3:04:20Korean delegation which sat down with the South Korean Government,
3:04:20 > 3:04:25including President Moon, and during this meeting, she came up with this
3:04:25 > 3:04:29folder, and we were wondering what was in the folder, and in fact, it
3:04:29 > 3:04:35was a handwritten message from the North Korean leader, her brother to
3:04:35 > 3:04:40his South Korean counterpart. Now, I don't know how this will go down in
3:04:40 > 3:04:42the United States. The Trump administration has been saying that
3:04:42 > 3:04:47really, this is not the time for engagement with the north. Maximum
3:04:47 > 3:04:55pressure needs to be kept on Pyeongchang for -- North Korea
3:04:55 > 3:05:03avoids North
3:05:03 > 3:05:06avoids North nuclear weapons programme. But, this could press
3:05:06 > 3:05:10ahead with dialogue.It is an interesting situation, because we
3:05:10 > 3:05:13know that Mike Pence is there at the moment. He went out there clearly
3:05:13 > 3:05:19with his own messages in amongst international diplomacy?Absolutely.
3:05:19 > 3:05:28Vice President, Mike Pence, here at the Olympics. He said that at every
3:05:28 > 3:05:31stage you will be challenging North Korea on human rights and nuclear
3:05:31 > 3:05:36weapons. At the stadium, here, behind me, last night at the opening
3:05:36 > 3:05:42ceremony, he was within the handshake's distance of the North
3:05:42 > 3:05:47Korean leader's sister, and completely shunned them. So, I think
3:05:47 > 3:05:51that the US Government does not seem at the moment prepared to open a
3:05:51 > 3:05:55dialogue with the north, even though Moon Jae-in, today, at the same
3:05:55 > 3:05:59meeting said that they should attempt to have discussions with the
3:05:59 > 3:06:06United States. I am not so sure that the Trump administration is open for
3:06:06 > 3:06:11that possibility, just yet.Thank you so much. The Winter Olympics. We
3:06:11 > 3:06:15will have more on the action that is ongoing, a little bit later in the
3:06:15 > 3:06:19sport. Six minutes past nine is the time.
3:06:19 > 3:06:21The government has condemned the "appalling abuse of vulnerable
3:06:21 > 3:06:24people in Haiti" and says Oxfam has serious questions to answer over
3:06:24 > 3:06:27claims the charity covered up the use of prostitutes by some
3:06:27 > 3:06:28of its staff.
3:06:28 > 3:06:31Oxfam insists it publicised the action it took against the aid
3:06:31 > 3:06:32workers involved, some of whom were fired.
3:06:32 > 3:06:35However, the Times is reporting several went on to work
3:06:35 > 3:06:36for other charities, who were unaware of
3:06:36 > 3:06:37their past behaviour.
3:06:37 > 3:06:39Oxfam denies it provided positive references for any
3:06:39 > 3:06:42staff who were dismissed.
3:06:42 > 3:06:48Jessica Parker reports.
3:06:54 > 3:06:56An advert from the charity giant, Oxfam.
3:06:56 > 3:06:58It got nearly £32 million from the UK
3:06:58 > 3:07:02Department for International Development in the last financial
3:07:02 > 3:07:04year, but amid the sexual exploitation scandal, the Government
3:07:04 > 3:07:10said last night:
3:07:42 > 3:07:44The allegations surround the the behaviour of aid
3:07:44 > 3:07:46workers here in Haiti following the devastating
3:07:46 > 3:07:47earthquake in 2010.
3:07:47 > 3:07:48A Times newspaper found inappropriate
3:07:48 > 3:07:50behaviour, including the use of prostitutes.
3:07:50 > 3:07:52The charity has denied a cover-up and said that it publicly
3:07:52 > 3:07:54announced an enquiry into the claims in 2011.
3:07:54 > 3:07:57It said the behaviour of some of its staff had been totally
3:07:57 > 3:08:00unacceptable, but that allegations that underage girls may have been
3:08:00 > 3:08:01involved were not proven.
3:08:01 > 3:08:02Four staff members were dismissed and three
3:08:02 > 3:08:05were allowed to resign as part of the external investigation.
3:08:05 > 3:08:07Was this the first time that you ever heard
3:08:07 > 3:08:09of exploitative sexual behaviour going on at Oxfam?
3:08:09 > 3:08:10No.
3:08:10 > 3:08:11No.
3:08:11 > 3:08:13I can only think of one or two examples that
3:08:13 > 3:08:16come to mind, but we had already agreed that any sign that anybody
3:08:16 > 3:08:18was doing this, there would be an investigation.
3:08:18 > 3:08:20That investigation was noted and went to our trustee
3:08:20 > 3:08:21board.
3:08:21 > 3:08:24Today the Times reports fresh claims that Oxfam failed to warn
3:08:24 > 3:08:26other aid agencies about the staff, allowing
3:08:26 > 3:08:27them to take other jobs in
3:08:27 > 3:08:28the sector.
3:08:28 > 3:08:30While there is a wide acknowledgement that hundreds of
3:08:30 > 3:08:33Oxfam staff have done nothing wrong, the charity does now face serious
3:08:33 > 3:08:36questions about its past and what that could mean for its future.
3:08:36 > 3:08:39The Defence Minister, Tobias Ellwood, has suggested two
3:08:39 > 3:08:41members of the so-called Islamic State group,
3:08:41 > 3:08:44who are from London, should be tried at the International Criminal Court
3:08:44 > 3:08:45in The Hague.
3:08:45 > 3:08:48The BBC understands that the two - who were part of a unit thought
3:08:48 > 3:08:51to have murdered 27 hostages - have been stripped of their

3:13:19 > 3:13:29A very big thank you for joining us. Just giving a sense of why this is
3:13:29 > 3:13:32such an important occasion.I think what is important about today is
3:13:32 > 3:13:40that survivors have been gathering with Synod and making a strong
3:13:40 > 3:13:45connection and forming an alliance with Synod members in order to drive
3:13:45 > 3:13:50through change. We have brought with us, a booklet, saying, we asked for
3:13:50 > 3:14:01bread, but you gave us stones. That has been sent to all Synod members.
3:14:01 > 3:14:04It is a very important document, it charts much pain in terms of the way
3:14:04 > 3:14:11in which the Church has responded to survivors, and today, we are really
3:14:11 > 3:14:14able to connect that, with Synod members and ask for their support
3:14:14 > 3:14:19and help. And we are able to support them as they drive through change in
3:14:19 > 3:14:24the church.So, clearly hugely important as to what happens now,
3:14:24 > 3:14:26and whether that is achieved in the corporation that you're talking
3:14:26 > 3:14:31about. Just go back a little bit in the story for ask Woods there have
3:14:31 > 3:14:36been many criticisms in the way that the church has tried to handle if at
3:14:36 > 3:14:40all, or even recognise those who have made allegations, like
3:14:40 > 3:14:43yourself? Could you tell us a bit about how you are treated and
3:14:43 > 3:14:50others, to? How they were treated? It is very hit and miss within
3:14:50 > 3:14:53dioceses. I think there are some dioceses which have quite a good
3:14:53 > 3:14:58record, and I think there are others which have a very poor record. But,
3:14:58 > 3:15:02one of the very sad things is that the structure behind me in Church
3:15:02 > 3:15:09house really has not been very good in its treatment of survivors. The
3:15:09 > 3:15:15National safeguarding team is coming under very considerable fire today,
3:15:15 > 3:15:18and indeed, yesterday, and I think many survivors feel now that its
3:15:18 > 3:15:29needs total root and branch reform. Its needs new training, new
3:15:29 > 3:15:33management, and very much a new vision of itself, and its purpose,
3:15:33 > 3:15:41but more than anything, that needs to happen from today, is an
3:15:41 > 3:15:45overarching independent body to supervise and monitor the
3:15:45 > 3:15:52safeguarding of the church, so that its functional and operational.One
3:15:52 > 3:15:55of the things that I think it probably has in common with other
3:15:55 > 3:15:59areas of life where there have been abuses, is that often people say,
3:15:59 > 3:16:02those people who make accusations, who have been the victims, they say
3:16:02 > 3:16:08that how they were treated subsequently can almost feel like
3:16:08 > 3:16:14they are being abused again. But it can compound a terrible situation.
3:16:14 > 3:16:18Do you understand that?Very much so. I think that is a very common
3:16:18 > 3:16:23experience for many of us. The dishonesty, malevolence, silence,
3:16:23 > 3:16:30legal games except that we experience, very much compound the
3:16:30 > 3:16:36heart and profoundly disrespects our stories and the impact on our lives,
3:16:36 > 3:16:40and I think that is common in probably all institutions. Survivors
3:16:40 > 3:16:48would say that the church, and the churches generally need to be
3:16:48 > 3:16:54leaders and they need to lead the way. -- leads the way. They have got
3:16:54 > 3:16:57Gospel imperative core principles that ought to be at the heart of
3:16:57 > 3:17:00really setting a profoundly good example in this, and they are
3:17:00 > 3:17:12failing.I very much appreciate your time. Thank you very much.
3:17:12 > 3:17:14You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.
3:17:14 > 3:17:17The main stories this morning:
3:17:17 > 3:17:19The North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has invited the South Korean
3:17:19 > 3:17:21president to visit him at the earliest date possible,
3:17:21 > 3:17:25following a historic meeting in Seoul.
3:17:25 > 3:17:27The government says it's reviewing its relationship with Oxfam,
3:17:27 > 3:17:29after claims the charity covered up a scandal involving
3:17:29 > 3:17:37its staff in Haiti.
3:17:43 > 3:17:46This weekend is a weekend to wrap up. It is because of that
3:17:46 > 3:17:52north-westerly wind, Nick? Absolutely right. We will be feeling
3:17:52 > 3:17:55it again tomorrow. Today, a south-westerly, so a little less
3:17:55 > 3:18:01cold.
3:18:02 > 3:18:07Now, I have found some sunshine for you, and it is in Kent, but it has
3:18:07 > 3:18:12been quite a cold start across England. Some sunshine which will
3:18:12 > 3:18:16not last too long, because here, rain for a time today, although it
3:18:16 > 3:18:20is already beginning to pull away from Scotland and Northern Ireland,
3:18:20 > 3:18:25and in tomorrow,
3:18:25 > 3:18:30and in tomorrow, Sarnia and blue skies, but it will be much colder.
3:18:30 > 3:18:34All of the weekend whether showing up on the satellite picture. Is
3:18:34 > 3:18:38speckled cloud away to our Northwest, these are the wintry
3:18:38 > 3:18:42showers coming in tomorrow. Here is how it is looking over the next few
3:18:42 > 3:18:46hours, for the rest of this morning. Outbreaks of rain spreading further
3:18:46 > 3:18:54south. Something quieter from a time will turn wet again, especially in
3:18:54 > 3:18:57Northern Ireland, later this afternoon. We take a closer look at
3:18:57 > 3:19:00things at three o'clock, today, and a lot of clear whether in Scotland.
3:19:00 > 3:19:07You can see the green land that indicate some sunshine. Something
3:19:07 > 3:19:11drier for a time in northern England, but just turning a bit
3:19:11 > 3:19:15showery now at this stage into Wales and south-west England. Still some
3:19:15 > 3:19:19damp weather for East Anglia into the south-east. That will eventually
3:19:19 > 3:19:25push away. And temperatures, today, it has been a cold start. As well,
3:19:25 > 3:19:32though, 7-10d. Some of us edging into double figures. For the rugby,
3:19:32 > 3:19:38it will be largely and cloudy and damp in Dublin and at Twickenham,
3:19:38 > 3:19:42but a brisk south-westerly wind, which for England and Wales,
3:19:42 > 3:19:47tonight, will get stronger with gales in places. Look at this wet
3:19:47 > 3:19:52weather. We will see some snow particularly into southern Scotland,
3:19:52 > 3:19:56and northern England, for a time, particularly into the hills, but as
3:19:56 > 3:20:01that pulls away, snow showers following north-west of the UK, and
3:20:01 > 3:20:04temperatures will dip. There will be icy conditions going into the
3:20:04 > 3:20:09morning.
3:20:09 > 3:20:16morning. More... If you get one of these heavy showers, you may just
3:20:16 > 3:20:20get a brief, light covering of snow in places, but more into the hills,
3:20:20 > 3:20:24as well. That wind direction, tomorrow, will feel much colder.
3:20:24 > 3:20:28There will be opportunities to see some snow, at times, but we will
3:20:28 > 3:20:35keep you updated about that for next week. Thank you very much.
3:20:39 > 3:20:41You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.
3:20:41 > 3:20:43Time now for a look at the newspapers.
3:20:43 > 3:20:46Politics lecturer Victoria Honeyman is here.
3:20:46 > 3:20:53You have picked out an article on Jacob Rees-Mogg. We are seeing a lot
3:20:53 > 3:20:58of him, recently, aren't we?There has been a lot of talk
3:20:58 > 3:21:00of him, recently, aren't we?There has been a lot of talk about him as
3:21:00 > 3:21:04a potential leader. Inevitably, there is more adjusted in him. He is
3:21:04 > 3:21:09quite an unusual character in British politics. That is what the
3:21:09 > 3:21:13article is referring to.He has that a lot of people in his comment.He
3:21:13 > 3:21:19certainly has. He is very right-wing. He is staunchly Catholic
3:21:19 > 3:21:26in his views, about abortion, and particularly, there's top voter is
3:21:26 > 3:21:30him having his hair done, the bottom photo, the very small one is of him
3:21:30 > 3:21:35as a 12-year-old reading the Financial Times, this is an article
3:21:35 > 3:21:41that says, raising his profile, talking about who ears and what he
3:21:41 > 3:21:46believes them, and that is great, but he is a slight throwback to the
3:21:46 > 3:21:5418th century. That is the thrust, really.In some ways, you could say,
3:21:54 > 3:21:58he is not here to talk about himself. He is somebody that, who,
3:21:58 > 3:22:02despite maybe Harry comes across, he clearly cared about his image. I
3:22:02 > 3:22:07know that the newspaper chose that particular shot, but MPs are not
3:22:07 > 3:22:11immune from these things, that they might in public they are not
3:22:11 > 3:22:14relevant. They will say that what they say and what they think is
3:22:14 > 3:22:19relevant, but it does matter, doesn't it?I don't think that he
3:22:19 > 3:22:22will be upset about that photograph, because while he is generally
3:22:22 > 3:22:26considered to be somebody who has a strong personal image, of being a
3:22:26 > 3:22:31very strong, very well put together, quite compactand strong beliefs,
3:22:31 > 3:22:37that people do not agree with... Exactly. He might want to push some
3:22:37 > 3:22:44of his more popular views if he wants to be more popular. That is
3:22:44 > 3:22:47what he seems to be doing. Pushing himself forward as an individual,
3:22:47 > 3:22:52and somebody who will be of interest to the British public.What about
3:22:52 > 3:22:56this insurance story? What is this all about?It is a very interesting
3:22:56 > 3:23:00story. It is arguing that the insurance industry, over the last
3:23:00 > 3:23:05five years, if not slightly longer, have attempted to add more and more
3:23:05 > 3:23:08cost to the average insurance policy, such as cancellation costs,
3:23:08 > 3:23:12but this is a particular idea about excesses. The excesses of a specific
3:23:12 > 3:23:18amount that you have to pay when you claim it is, but often, the accesses
3:23:18 > 3:23:25are more than the things that for. For example, a £500 access when you
3:23:25 > 3:23:32can receive £350 of dental work.So, you could never get the value of
3:23:32 > 3:23:38what you are claiming for?That is right. The bigger problem is that if
3:23:38 > 3:23:40you claim on your insurance, then you will pay more for it in the
3:23:40 > 3:23:44coming year, so this may be that it is a double or triple whammy on what
3:23:44 > 3:23:49people are doing. They are being hit by high cost of excesses, higher
3:23:49 > 3:23:52costs of cancellations, and the higher cost of...But even if you
3:23:52 > 3:23:58don't make a claim, your insurance goes up. A lot of people's thinking
3:23:58 > 3:24:03is that they might as well make a claim. In the past, you might have
3:24:03 > 3:24:06thought, I have not famed for five years, so I should be one of the
3:24:06 > 3:24:10people who get an advantage after that, but when a claim goes up, and
3:24:10 > 3:24:15you ask why, they say, a lot of people have made gains. Your Low but
3:24:15 > 3:24:19clearly, if you have got an excess of £100, and you can only claim for
3:24:19 > 3:24:27£100, what is the point of your insurance at all.
3:24:27 > 3:24:31insurance at all. Doesn't that just say everything about how touches
3:24:31 > 3:24:36some dog owners, R. Apparently corgis are the dog to have now.
3:24:36 > 3:24:41Apologies for having a couple of dog heavy newspaper reviews. We talked
3:24:41 > 3:24:44about Finn in the previous one, now we are talking about corgis.
3:24:44 > 3:24:53Apparently corgis have had a revival because of issues relating to The
3:24:53 > 3:24:58Crown, the Netflix programme. I have seen serious one of the Crown, but I
3:24:58 > 3:25:03don't remember the dogs being in it. It was brilliant, but I did
3:25:03 > 3:25:07remember.They are in our lot. Bisley, the Queen is often in

3:25:23 > 3:25:30are supposed to be quite snippy. Snappy? Know, different from snappy.
3:25:30 > 3:25:34I am sure that somebody will correct me if I'm wrong, but this is a
3:25:34 > 3:25:40specific type of Gorgie.Let's not talk about the cost reads. Why
3:25:40 > 3:25:46shouldn't you tie the knot on Valentine's Day? What is it, next
3:25:46 > 3:25:50Wednesday?Apparently, some Dutch research has suggested that if you
3:25:50 > 3:25:59get married on Valentine's Day, you are 37% likely to be getting a
3:25:59 > 3:26:04divorce. Maybe they are rushed?I will put a hole in that state the

3:26:20 > 3:26:24pressure. People rush to do it. That is essentially, cried a bit. I don't

3:27:19 > 3:27:24what that says about you.Not particularly romantic, is it? I will
3:27:24 > 3:27:27spend Valentine's Day in Germany eating sausages, because that is

3:27:59 > 3:28:05Tripe. Tripe, like many of the reviews that I have received.We
3:28:05 > 3:28:13also have some great chefs. What is on the menu?I am making a naval

3:31:50 > 3:31:52The Defence Minister, Tobias Ellwood, has suggested two
3:31:52 > 3:31:54members of the so-called Islamic State group,

3:32:36 > 3:32:38Fraudsters are conning vulnerable people out of thousands of pounds
3:32:38 > 3:32:41in a phone scam which demands they pay tax bills
3:32:41 > 3:32:42using iTunes vouchers.
3:32:42 > 3:32:48Victims are told they owe money to HMRC, and encouraged to buy
3:32:48 > 3:32:54the vouchers and pass on the codes to the scammer.
3:32:54 > 3:32:57They are then redeemed or sold on.
3:32:57 > 3:33:051500 people have fallen victim to this fraud,
3:33:09 > 3:33:12the average person is over 65, the average loss is £1150,
3:33:12 > 3:33:14although, very sadly, we heard of one 81-year-old
3:33:14 > 3:33:16gentleman who after repeated attacks lost £20,000 to this scam.
3:33:16 > 3:33:19A convicted killer, who drove his car over a woman
3:33:19 > 3:33:21as she tried to stop him stealing her handbag, has gone
3:33:21 > 3:33:24on the run after he was freed from prison on licence.

3:33:37 > 3:33:39will step down as President of Sinn Fein today.
3:33:39 > 3:33:42After more than 34 years in the post, he will be replaced
3:33:42 > 3:33:45by Mary Lou McDonald at a specially convened party conference in Dublin.
3:33:45 > 3:33:47Her first major challenge will be in Northern Ireland,
3:33:47 > 3:33:49where talks to restore the devolved government are due to

3:33:56 > 3:34:02Those are the main stories. Mike, good morning, we are so excited, I
3:34:02 > 3:34:05am very excited, a couple of things, the Winter Olympics, this diplomacy
3:34:05 > 3:34:11coming around, there must be a good feeling of sport, really...
3:34:11 > 3:34:17Overflowing. The power of sport to do what nothing else can, diplomacy,
3:34:17 > 3:34:23war, this brings people together. Wonderful to see this.And the
3:34:23 > 3:34:27action, heartbreak, joy.In one hour's time we will go through it
3:34:27 > 3:34:31all again, Elise Christie, short track speed skating, we saw all that
3:34:31 > 3:34:36emotion, heartbreak for British stars, in the snowboard slopestyle,
3:34:36 > 3:34:39only the first event, they still have the big air event, you did not
3:34:39 > 3:34:42qualify for the final because of what happened on the landings, so
3:34:42 > 3:34:46crucial, the split second when you land, doing your rotations, all the
3:34:46 > 3:34:50work that has gone into that, it is how you land, they could not cope
3:34:50 > 3:34:54with it. This is what has been happening in Pyeongchang on a busy
3:34:54 > 3:34:57first birthday.
3:34:57 > 3:35:02VOICEOVER: In snowboarding, you match ambition in the air with boys
3:35:02 > 3:35:08in the fall, it is the Olympic sport that rewards bravery. Kick It
3:35:08 > 3:35:12CO-COMMENTATOR:The ground came up to meet him.British athletes have
3:35:12 > 3:35:15medal interest here, they have been training on a giant airbag to take
3:35:15 > 3:35:19the risk out of their tricks, Jamie Nicholls was on the edge of a final
3:35:19 > 3:35:23place ahead of the second run. -- poise. He had to push the boundaries
3:35:23 > 3:35:29to make it.Jamie, that was huge! That is how it goes sometimes in
3:35:29 > 3:35:32competition, today was not my day. Right now looks like I might miss
3:35:32 > 3:35:37out on the finals by one spot, right now, I would be gutted.This is a
3:35:37 > 3:35:40youthful Olympic discipline in many ways, Billie Morgan has made his
3:35:40 > 3:35:45name with tricks on YouTube, now he had to keep the judges watching, the
3:35:45 > 3:35:49problem, he was playing catch up as well, forced into mistakes.I knew I
3:35:49 > 3:35:54was going to be slow coming into the jump, second round, I felt the
3:35:54 > 3:35:58headwind, and I thought, no... That was all I could think about.In
3:35:58 > 3:36:02these events, months, years of training can be defined in an
3:36:02 > 3:36:05instant, in an error. A more patient struggle would decide the first
3:36:05 > 3:36:11medal, this combines two kinds of cross-country, equally gruelling,
3:36:11 > 3:36:14skiathlon, and Charlotte Kalla of Sweden glided first past the
3:36:14 > 3:36:18galleries, and there was more history on the hill with Marit
3:36:18 > 3:36:23Bjoergen Silver, she is now the most decorated female Winter Olympian.
3:36:23 > 3:36:27Britain's medal hopes start with the Winter sprinting, Elise Christie is
3:36:27 > 3:36:32a world champion now, more used to success.This sport is not spies to
3:36:32 > 3:36:37be boring, you are not supposed to sit in second. -- not supposed to be
3:36:37 > 3:36:41boring. I will go for the win, I may not do it but that is what I will be
3:36:41 > 3:36:45trying to do.Three medals in three distances are there for her, winning
3:36:45 > 3:36:49all of them would be truly historic, she is the speed skater going for
3:36:49 > 3:36:52superstardom.
3:36:52 > 3:36:55Already a history making day at the Winter Olympic and plenty more to
3:36:55 > 3:37:04come on the BBC. The other big event, they don't come much bigger.
3:37:05 > 3:37:07The Six Nations continues this weekend with a mouthwatering clash
3:37:07 > 3:37:09at Twickenham this afternoon. England take on Wales.. With both
3:37:09 > 3:37:11sides looking, to build on winning starts T this year 's tournament.
3:37:11 > 3:37:17John Watson is life for us, at Twickenham, I believe you may have a
3:37:17 > 3:37:25couple of special guests. -- to this year 's tournament. -- live. Victory
3:37:25 > 3:37:32for England over Italy, and the big win for Wales over Scotland, for the
3:37:32 > 3:37:36Welsh perspective, Michael Owen, grand slam winner with Wales, 2005,
3:37:36 > 3:37:39and Mike Tindall, England perspective, grand slam winner in
3:37:39 > 3:37:442003, if it gets heated, I am not stepping in! LAUGHTER
3:37:44 > 3:37:48Last week and Wales were very impressive.People writing them off
3:37:48 > 3:37:52a little bit but I think we always knew that the Llanelli Scarlets guys
3:37:52 > 3:37:57have got verve and confidence, they brought it through, no fear, do the
3:37:57 > 3:38:02same today. Hoping they can do the same again today.Talking about
3:38:02 > 3:38:06those guys from the Llanelli Scarlets, built on the bedrock of
3:38:06 > 3:38:11that team, ten of them starting, unchanged, perhaps unsurprising that
3:38:11 > 3:38:16Warren Gatland has stuck with the side that got past Scotland.A/V
3:38:16 > 3:38:20players coming back, George North, Euan Williams, George North involved
3:38:20 > 3:38:33on the bench. -- 80 few players coming back. -- a few. I hope those
3:38:33 > 3:38:37guys can rise up to it and see them perform as we have seen in the past,
3:38:37 > 3:38:42for Llanelli Scarlets and last week at the millennium stadium.23 wins
3:38:42 > 3:38:45out of 24, incredible run for England under Eddie Jones, master
3:38:45 > 3:38:49tactician on the field and off it, as he was ramping up the pressure on
3:38:49 > 3:38:53the Welsh fly half, Rhys Patchell, saying, did he have the bottle to
3:38:53 > 3:38:58content with the Twickenham called and that he will face, interesting
3:38:58 > 3:39:02to sow the seed of doubt.That is what Eddie Jones does, deflect away
3:39:02 > 3:39:07from the team, take on the pressure on his own shoulders, he wants to
3:39:07 > 3:39:12pump a little bit of pressure on Rhys Patchell, but it is also a
3:39:12 > 3:39:14challenge. Rhys Patchell is a good enough player to come out here and
3:39:14 > 3:39:20play like he did last week, he wants to make sure that he goes out to
3:39:20 > 3:39:24perform, that is what good coaches do, find places where they can apply
3:39:24 > 3:39:29a little bit of pressure, and challenge those players. It is down
3:39:29 > 3:39:33now to Rhys Patchell to come out and show he is a player that can do
3:39:33 > 3:39:36that, he is of easily doing that because he says he is the third
3:39:36 > 3:39:40choice ten... I think Eddie Jones is a little bit worried about him in
3:39:40 > 3:39:44some ways! Also him doing his job to make sure he puts pressure on him.
3:39:44 > 3:39:48As a player, if an opposing coach said something about you in the lead
3:39:48 > 3:39:53up to a match, what frame of mind with that leave you in?Every
3:39:53 > 3:39:56individual psyche and how they deal with it, I would be thinking, this
3:39:56 > 3:40:00is a good thing, if I was Rhys Patchell, it shows he knows I can
3:40:00 > 3:40:05play and dominate, in terms of how Wales want to move forward and play
3:40:05 > 3:40:09more of an expansive game, give the ball more air, he's very good at it.
3:40:09 > 3:40:13If I was him I would think it was a compliment. Then you have to come
3:40:13 > 3:40:18out and perform it. He is making you know, you have to do it in front of
3:40:18 > 3:40:2290,000 people.The six Nations, usually important, in the backdrop
3:40:22 > 3:40:27of all of this, the World Cup on the horizon, that is what Eddie Jones
3:40:27 > 3:40:31has been tasked with, masterminding that, our England on the right
3:40:31 > 3:40:36track, do they have what it takes to win the World Cup?Look at the
3:40:36 > 3:40:40statistics, you cannot win this many games and not be on the right track,
3:40:40 > 3:40:44they are a good team, great strength in depth, finding out more and more
3:40:44 > 3:40:48they play, the strength in depth. The bench has been outstanding, that
3:40:48 > 3:40:53came on last week am unbelievable, three tries in the last 15 minutes,
3:40:53 > 3:41:05fantastic. I think they are in a very strong position. Sam Simmons
3:41:05 > 3:41:10steps up, last week in, plays like he did, someone, genuine gas, bit
3:41:10 > 3:41:14more of a flair player, there will always be a role for him in the
3:41:14 > 3:41:18team. He is finding out about how strong English rugby is. It is a
3:41:18 > 3:41:23very good Welsh team. Yes, Scotland were poor last week but you can only
3:41:23 > 3:41:27beat what is in front of you and Wales did a clinical professional
3:41:27 > 3:41:31job on what they did last week will stop I think it will be a good game,
3:41:31 > 3:41:36always better when there is a little bit... Yeah, when there is actually,
3:41:36 > 3:41:41you know, an open forum, which way it could go, that is what you want,
3:41:41 > 3:41:46last time, last time Wales won here, the World Cup, 2014, backstay flying
3:41:46 > 3:41:50is rugby! Hopefully we will not be seen that again later. I think it
3:41:50 > 3:41:56will be a great game.Spoken like a proud endorsement and a proud
3:41:56 > 3:42:01Welshman as well, aged 2000 fans crammed in here, give us a sense,
3:42:01 > 3:42:05huge occasion, can Wales do live?I think they can definitely do it, I
3:42:05 > 3:42:09think they have the ability, to make line breaks and score tries, hanging
3:42:09 > 3:42:14in there, absorbing pressure from what is a very good side. I think
3:42:14 > 3:42:18they can sneak in in the last five mids and break English hearts.I
3:42:18 > 3:42:22will leave them to it, this could get very messy, James, thank you,
3:42:22 > 3:42:26absolute belter, and it does not need much more build-up, but Eddie
3:42:26 > 3:42:30Jones, those comments adding a little bit of spice to what is going
3:42:30 > 3:42:34to be a cracking afternoon of rugby ahead at Twickenham.
3:42:34 > 3:42:39STUDIO: Thank you very much. Hard to call, fantastic match-up, Eddie
3:42:39 > 3:42:43Jones and Warren Gatland, both fantastic form and coaches, ten
3:42:43 > 3:42:48years in charge for Warren Gatland at Wales. Mind games fascinating.
3:42:48 > 3:42:51Superb, I cannot call it. England fans might be worried after what we
3:42:51 > 3:42:58saw this weekend.Will it be a high score?Yeah, I'm thinking in the
3:42:58 > 3:43:0220s, 25-22, something like that... That is very precise. I will keep
3:43:02 > 3:43:07that in mind.Quite good, recently, my predictions.Yes.We will see.
3:43:07 > 3:43:11The first game of the day is in Dublin, Ireland take on Italy. Also
3:43:11 > 3:43:16round two of the women six Nations, England hosted Wales, Scotland is
3:43:16 > 3:43:24taking on France. History was made last night in club
3:43:24 > 3:43:26last night in club rugby, Joy Neville became the first woman to
3:43:26 > 3:43:28referee a Pro14 match, taking charge of Ulster against Southern Kings -
3:43:28 > 3:43:31and she saw Ulster dominate the game, winning 59-10, with Craig
3:43:31 > 3:43:34Gilroy, scoring three of their nine tries. Talking of history, rugby
3:43:34 > 3:43:40league history today, first ever super league game staged outside of
3:43:40 > 3:43:46Europe, it is actually in Australia! Wigan play Hull FC, in New South
3:43:46 > 3:43:49Wales, thrilling finish closer to home last night, after a last-minute
3:43:49 > 3:43:53try from Salford, Gareth O'Brien, had to land this click to earned
3:43:53 > 3:43:57them a point but it drifted just wide, looks like it was going to
3:43:57 > 3:44:09cross and over but no, Wakefield wing, 40-12. -- land this
3:44:13 > 3:44:17wing, 40-12. -- land this kick.
3:44:17 > 3:44:21The big match today, Arsenal taking on Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal are
3:44:21 > 3:44:27four behind Spurs.For us, this is an opportunity to come back in the
3:44:27 > 3:44:33table, closer to the Champions League spot.That is the priority.
3:44:33 > 3:44:45Last season, we were above them. It is not right to focus on them. For
3:44:45 > 3:44:49me, there is no one favourite, both teams have equality and are powerful
3:44:49 > 3:44:53and have the quality to win games.
3:44:53 > 3:45:02Lunchtime today.Celtic's defence of the Scottish Cup continues today -
3:45:02 > 3:45:04they take on Partick Thistle in the fifth round. Celtic mourning the
3:45:04 > 3:45:06passing of former midfielder Liam Miller. He has died of cancer aged
3:45:06 > 3:45:11just 36. Fans across the country are in shock with this news, I certainly
3:45:11 > 3:45:15was, as a Leeds Van, he play for Manchester United and Sunderland as
3:45:15 > 3:45:19well, winning 21 caps with the Republic of Ireland. A lot of
3:45:19 > 3:45:24memories coming out about Liam Miller at various grounds.
3:45:24 > 3:45:29Stop what you are doing, watch this, the accuracy, it has put England in
3:45:29 > 3:45:39trouble. A spectacular throw. England Openers Jason Roy and Alex
3:45:39 > 3:45:41Hayles, had already gone, Australia's David Warner picks up
3:45:41 > 3:45:43the ball and mid dive throws it straight at the stumps and Davide
3:45:43 > 3:45:51malan, was run out - England, who lost their opening match, now 120-5.
3:45:52 > 3:45:55The ball was really hugging the ground as it went along... I have
3:45:55 > 3:46:00never seen anything like that. England lost their opening match,
3:46:00 > 3:46:03they are now 120-5.
3:46:03 > 3:46:07Something else special for you, talking England and Wales... Back in
3:46:07 > 3:46:091947 Harry Walker made his England debut against Wales. 71 years later,
3:46:09 > 3:46:12he still remembers the game with fond memories because England won
3:46:12 > 3:46:149-6. Today the teams meet again in the Six Nations Championship and
3:46:14 > 3:46:16Harry will be hoping for a similar result. Ian Winter joined the
3:46:16 > 3:46:19world's oldest international player at his 103rd birthday celebrations
3:46:19 > 3:46:24in Coventry.

3:46:58 > 3:47:00legend, the oldest international rugby player in the world.If
3:47:00 > 3:47:05anybody deserved the accolade of Mr Coventry Rugby, it is Harry, he has
3:47:05 > 3:47:09given so much to the club, in devotion, and above all else,
3:47:09 > 3:47:14loyalty, something missing in the modern game. We admire him for that
3:47:14 > 3:47:18immensely, we love him to bits.You would not want to be playing rugby
3:47:18 > 3:47:22on a pitch like that. He still loves watching Coventry and is delighted

3:47:30 > 3:47:37huge part in his remarkable life experience.I want Coventry to get
3:47:37 > 3:47:42promotion this year, and I want Coventry to have a good team in the
3:47:42 > 3:47:46championship. Coventry has always been mine.This is one of nine
3:47:46 > 3:47:52England caps Harry won soon after the end of the Second World War, it
3:47:52 > 3:47:56is incredible to think that his final international appearance was
3:47:56 > 3:48:04in 1948, exactly 70 years ago! COMMENTATOR: Cardiff Arms Park, the
3:48:04 > 3:48:07white shirted wallabies kicking off in the last match of the tour. I
3:48:07 > 3:48:11voice-over also in 1948 that Harry played for the Barbarians in the
3:48:11 > 3:48:19famous victory against mighty Australia.The Australians had
3:48:19 > 3:48:25beaten France, England, Ireland and Scotland.They were unbeaten! One of
3:48:25 > 3:48:29the most satisfying wins of your entire career?That was the best. It
3:48:29 > 3:48:37was the best, honest. And in those days, you could not keep the jersey!
3:48:37 > 3:48:43They would come round and collect the bloody jersey of you!Bananas,
3:48:43 > 3:48:46broccoli, beetroot, and everyday still cooks his own fresh food, he
3:48:46 > 3:48:52will never forget his 103rd birthday lunch but he will never to give the
3:48:52 > 3:48:56rugby club jokers for using trick candles and the icing on the cake
3:48:56 > 3:49:00would be for England to beat Wales at Twickenham this afternoon.
3:49:00 > 3:49:08STUDIO: That is wonderful! Isn't it. Happy birthday, Harry! 103! 1948,
3:49:08 > 3:49:12crazy, wonderful pictures, wonderful memories, if anybody can talk the
3:49:12 > 3:49:15game, it is him.
3:49:17 > 3:49:21Time now for the weather forecast.
3:49:25 > 3:49:28Snow on the way.
3:49:28 > 3:49:29Snow on the way.
3:49:29 > 3:49:36Snow shower was around today for some of us.
3:49:37 > 3:49:40some of us. This will not last very long, this is the view from some of
3:49:40 > 3:49:46the weather watchers, changeable weather this weekend, not the same
3:49:46 > 3:49:51thing for very long at any time, some rain around, clearing for
3:49:51 > 3:49:55Scotland and Northern Ireland, brighter skies, snow showers around,
3:49:55 > 3:49:59cold weekend, particularly tomorrow as we switch back to a
3:49:59 > 3:50:02north-westerly direction. Here is the view from space, satellite
3:50:02 > 3:50:07image, all of the cloud coming with outbreaks of rain, a lot of it
3:50:07 > 3:50:10pulling away from Scotland and Northern Ireland, quite a picture as
3:50:10 > 3:50:14we go into the afternoon. This is the main weather system taking the
3:50:14 > 3:50:17outbreaks of rain ever further south-east for England and Wales and
3:50:17 > 3:50:23eventually, later today, into Kent. As we take a look at things this
3:50:23 > 3:50:27afternoon, three o'clock, we will see some clearer weather in
3:50:27 > 3:50:32Scotland, continuing. Sunshine around today, in Greenland, clear,
3:50:32 > 3:50:35sunshine and gown and a future showers dotted about. Cloud
3:50:35 > 3:50:39increasing again after sunny spells in Northern Ireland, rain moving in.
3:50:39 > 3:50:44Hugging parts of northern England, the Midlands and the south-east, if
3:50:44 > 3:50:47you brighter holes. Outbreaks of rain for East Anglia and south-east
3:50:47 > 3:50:55England. -- a view brighter holes. Quite start across eastern part,
3:50:55 > 3:51:01temperatures slow to recover. Risk south-westerly wind. -- a few.
3:51:01 > 3:51:04Sunshine on the rugby pitch, there will not be much in evidence, Dublin
3:51:04 > 3:51:10and Twickenham today, big matches, especially at Twickenham. For
3:51:10 > 3:51:17England and Wales, will deliver dales, gusty winds, more wet
3:51:17 > 3:51:23weather, and not just growing, some snow.
3:51:23 > 3:51:26snow. There will be accumulations in hills, to relatively low levels, as
3:51:26 > 3:51:31the system begins to pull away, snow showers followed, Tim Burgess,
3:51:31 > 3:51:37notice these, dropping close to freezing.
3:51:39 > 3:51:44Tomorrow, north-westerly wind, there will be sunshine, you can see the
3:51:44 > 3:51:48land, that is where it is clearer, but there will be white indicating
3:51:48 > 3:51:54where there will be wintry showers, snow, hail, and filtering south-east
3:51:54 > 3:51:58during the day, notice temperatures are lower compared to today, it will
3:51:58 > 3:52:03feel colder in the wind especially as they showers move on through.
3:52:03 > 3:52:06Some of us double figures today, not tomorrow, maybe some more snow in
3:52:06 > 3:52:13the forecast in the week ahead we will keep you updated on that.
3:52:19 > 3:52:21It's already being billed as the biggest Winter Olympic Games yet -
3:52:21 > 3:52:25there are almost 3,000 athletes from 92 countries
3:52:25 > 3:52:30competing What are they doing when they are not on the slope. BBC
3:52:30 > 3:52:33Sport's Radzi Chinyanganya to check out the facilities at the athletes'
3:52:33 > 3:52:34village in Pyeongchang.
3:52:41 > 3:52:45Each and every one of those flags represents a country competing at
3:52:45 > 3:52:48the Winter Olympics and this is the athletes will each and we have come
3:52:48 > 3:52:52to take a look around. Genuinely no idea what goes on here, it says
3:52:52 > 3:53:00recreation area... OK, this is my kind of place. Pool, table hockey,
3:53:00 > 3:53:03basically, one conclusion, doesn't matter what country you come from,
3:53:03 > 3:53:06entertainment is a universal language, sometimes you have to have
3:53:06 > 3:53:10your arm twisted to do things, I think the massage chair, it is just
3:53:10 > 3:53:15one I'm going to take the team(!) I have never sat in one of these
3:53:15 > 3:53:20before... I could get used to this. It has started, that is really good,
3:53:20 > 3:53:26and it is pressing into my back... This is... This is great! LAUGHTER
3:53:26 > 3:53:29Lets never move from here! LAUGHTER
3:53:29 > 3:53:34With temperatures being officially Baltic, the place you come to
3:53:34 > 3:53:38replace the calories, right inside there, the official dining hall, I
3:53:38 > 3:53:42cannot get in because it is not an athlete -- I am not an athlete but
3:53:42 > 3:53:47it smells very good. We are in part of the gym, the cardio focused area,
3:53:47 > 3:53:51and this is where the athletes cannot get much stronger or fitter,
3:53:51 > 3:53:56but they can certainly make sure they keep things to ticking over for
3:53:56 > 3:54:01the most important day of their lives. When the Team GB athletes are
3:54:01 > 3:54:06not training or competing, then they are inside here, the Team GB HQ, we
3:54:06 > 3:54:11have been invited to go inside. It says please do not disturb, very
3:54:11 > 3:54:16good reason, the bobsleigh guys have just had a nap, they are inside
3:54:16 > 3:54:20there, I have been told it is messy, it is lived in, and straightaway, a
3:54:20 > 3:54:25man in his boxers! LAUGHTER Gentleman... How are we doing?
3:54:25 > 3:54:31What's happening! Good to see you. Very first Winter Olympics. The
3:54:31 > 3:54:36grant on top of the world. First, second, that Olympics, always
3:54:36 > 3:54:42feeling incredible. Britain's their fastest man.Yeah, second Olympics,
3:54:42 > 3:54:47it is as exciting as the first, you want to get out there.Such a
3:54:47 > 3:54:51build-up. No question about the team spirit in here, you guys obviously
3:54:51 > 3:54:55get on.You know what, he talks in his sleep! So we get on in the
3:54:55 > 3:54:58daytime...LAUGHTER So this will be the helmet that you
3:54:58 > 3:55:03will be wearing, if you are...When you see me, rocking to the block and
3:55:03 > 3:55:08sliding down, I will be wearing this bad boy.You will be running the
3:55:08 > 3:55:13most important performance time of your life.Feels good, I feel at
3:55:13 > 3:55:17home, you'll have become we compete against these guys all year round,
3:55:17 > 3:55:20it is very much, we want to win all year.
3:55:25 > 3:55:27Kind of fascinating to see behind-the-scenes. All working very
3:55:27 > 3:55:30hard of course. Whether it's for dog walkers, joggers or feeding the
3:55:30 > 3:55:34ducks, parks can be a welcome oasis in our towns and cities. But who
3:55:34 > 3:55:37should pay for them?
3:55:37 > 3:55:39Now, in Liverpool, they're planning on charging people for permits if
3:55:39 > 3:55:41they use them in a professional capacity. So with tight council
3:55:41 > 3:55:44budgets - could this be the answer to paying for parks? Claire Fallon
3:55:44 > 3:55:50is in Prince's Park in Liverpool this morning.
3:55:54 > 3:56:01Good morning.Good morning. Miserable weather, but beautiful
3:56:01 > 3:56:05surroundings, all the same, here is the thing, keeping parks looking
3:56:05 > 3:56:09beautiful, keeping them safe for the people who use them does cost money,
3:56:09 > 3:56:13recent years, council budgets have been squeezed. Here in Liverpool,
3:56:13 > 3:56:17what they are talking about, what they will bring in, permit system,
3:56:17 > 3:56:21meaning people who use the parks in order to make money will have to pay
3:56:21 > 3:56:28money to use the parks. Let me introduce you to a counsellor,
3:56:28 > 3:56:32behind the idea, Steve, this is difficult, because parks are
3:56:32 > 3:56:38publicly owned, and we should be able to use them for free.It is not
3:56:38 > 3:56:41difficult at all, if you are making money out of using parks, personally
3:56:41 > 3:56:44reasonable that you pay, I don't see why anybody should have a problem
3:56:44 > 3:56:49with it. If you are organising big concerts and making money, you
3:56:49 > 3:56:55should pay us, or, smaller offence, a range of new activities. Fitness
3:56:55 > 3:57:00trainers and other things. The charges we are proposing for those
3:57:00 > 3:57:06activities, £150 a year, less than £3 a week, you probably pay that for
3:57:06 > 3:57:10using a hall for activities. Incredibly good bargain.Permits for
3:57:10 > 3:57:15people like personal trainer.Not professional dog walkers. We have a
3:57:15 > 3:57:19park run on here, that will be free as well. How do you tell the
3:57:19 > 3:57:22difference between a group of friends exercising and a personal
3:57:22 > 3:57:27trainer?Using your nose, really, local knowledge, friends groups know
3:57:27 > 3:57:34who is about. We will have two suck it and see.Let me introduce you to
3:57:34 > 3:57:40a personal trainer, you will need a permit.Yes, and as a self-employed
3:57:40 > 3:57:44small business owner, paying extra money, I already paid gym rent as
3:57:44 > 3:57:48well, obviously I'm not delighted, however, as a resident of Liverpool,
3:57:48 > 3:57:52I feel strongly about green spaces being kept beautiful so if I am
3:57:52 > 3:57:56earning money, it is like a Home Office, I do not use it a great
3:57:56 > 3:58:01deal, but it is not a great deal of money. But, you know, they are
3:58:01 > 3:58:06public spaces. I do come here for myself, and I do sometimes come here
3:58:06 > 3:58:12with mates, just to go for a run, I don't want to be approached when
3:58:12 > 3:58:16iron fist having a nice run out with my friends.Thank you very much,
3:58:16 > 3:58:20thank you for braving the weather. On the new price list, one
3:58:20 > 3:58:25interesting thing, £350 if you want to land a helicopter in one of the
3:58:25 > 3:58:29parks in Liverpool! That is one to bear in mind if you have a
3:58:29 > 3:58:36helicopter...I will book mine in now, right now, obviously... Warm
3:58:36 > 3:58:39up, it has been bitterly cold. Thank you very much.
3:58:39 > 3:58:45A last look at some of the images coming out of Pyeongchang, this
3:58:45 > 3:58:48morning, nine hours ahead, dark there, does look rather magnificent,
3:58:48 > 3:58:55in the evening. You can watch the Winter Olympics coverage on BBC One,
3:58:55 > 3:58:58or Saturday Kitchen Live BBC Two, whatever you do, enjoy the rest of
3:58:58 > 3:58:59your day.
