0:00:53 > 0:00:55The aid worker at the centre of the Oxfam

0:00:55 > 0:00:56scandal speaks publically

0:01:05 > 0:01:08And in sport, it's bronze for Dom Parsons in the skeleton

0:01:08 > 0:01:14as he wins Britian's first medal of the Winter Olympics.

0:01:14 > 0:01:18Young people have just one in four chance of gettign on the property

0:01:18 > 0:01:20ladder according new research.

0:01:20 > 0:01:21It's blamed on rising prices and a shortgage

0:01:21 > 0:01:23of new homes being built.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25And Breakfast goes back to school.

0:01:25 > 0:01:28We're beginning a new series looking at the UK's maths problem,

0:01:28 > 0:01:31some of our very best brains will be put through their GCSE paces.

0:01:31 > 0:01:39And Matt has the weather.

0:01:40 > 0:01:45Good morning from Blenheim Palace, where I'll be all morning. Gorgeous,

0:01:45 > 0:01:48stunning surroundings on what will be a nice gorgeous winter's day for

0:01:48 > 0:01:53many. A a frosty start but your full Friday and we can forecast in the

0:01:53 > 0:01:55next 15 minutes. See you then.

0:01:55 > 0:01:56Good morning.

0:01:56 > 0:02:04First, our main story.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09The 19-year-old accused of carrying out a school shooting in Florida,

0:02:09 > 0:02:12which left 17 people dead, has appeared in court charged

0:02:12 > 0:02:13with premeditated murder.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16Nikolas Cruz went on a killing spree in the town

0:02:16 > 0:02:17of Parkland on Wednesday.

0:02:17 > 0:02:20The FBI is now investigating how it handled a warning that the teenager

0:02:20 > 0:02:22reportedly posted on YouTube claiming he would be

0:02:22 > 0:02:23a professional school shooter.

0:02:23 > 0:02:27Vigils were held late into the night in tribute to the victims,

0:02:27 > 0:02:28as Nada Tawfiq reports.

0:02:28 > 0:02:31They came to mourn the lives lost and the lives scarred

0:02:31 > 0:02:32by this senseless attack.

0:02:32 > 0:02:35Neighbours, friends and the students of Stoneman Douglas High comforted

0:02:35 > 0:02:36one another as best they could.

0:02:36 > 0:02:39Jed was among the students who ran in panic when the first

0:02:39 > 0:02:40shots were fired.

0:02:40 > 0:02:43He doesn't know if he can handle returning to the halls

0:02:43 > 0:02:48where his classmates' lives were cut short.

0:02:48 > 0:02:51I don't know if I'll be able to cope with just walking

0:02:51 > 0:02:53through the bottom floor of the freshman building,

0:02:53 > 0:02:55knowing that everything has been cleaned up...

0:02:55 > 0:02:58Like, everything - you can almost imagine blood

0:02:58 > 0:02:59on the walls, bodies on the floor.

0:02:59 > 0:03:03No one is going to be able to walk through that building.

0:03:03 > 0:03:08No one.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11All 17 victims have now been identified.

0:03:11 > 0:03:14Among them talented students, star athletes and Aaron Feis,

0:03:14 > 0:03:16a beloved football coach and security guard.

0:03:16 > 0:03:18He has been called a hero for shielding children

0:03:18 > 0:03:24from the gunman's bullets.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26Nikolas Cruz appeared in court briefly on 17 charges

0:03:26 > 0:03:27of premeditated murder.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30His lawyer said he was sad and remorseful and described him

0:03:30 > 0:03:33as a broken human being.

0:03:33 > 0:03:35The sheriff's office said he confessed to opening fire

0:03:35 > 0:03:36on his former school.

0:03:36 > 0:03:39He told authorities he bought a drink at Subway and stopped

0:03:39 > 0:03:44at McDonald's after the rampage.

0:03:44 > 0:03:51On social media, Cruz often posed with guns and on one post he wrote

0:03:51 > 0:03:53he would be a professional school shooter.

0:03:53 > 0:03:58Those who knew him were troubled by his behaviour.

0:03:58 > 0:04:04He's someone who use racial slurs, who was just awful to other people

0:04:04 > 0:04:09and I'm sure he was bullied himself by some but he was the type of

0:04:09 > 0:04:11person where people were scared to bully him because they knew

0:04:11 > 0:04:15something could happen. They just didn't think this would happen.

0:04:15 > 0:04:18These terrifying scenes of students completely helpless and trembling

0:04:18 > 0:04:19with fear have shaken the nation

0:04:19 > 0:04:22and they have reignited the debate on gun control.

0:04:22 > 0:04:25People here are in a state of shock, that someone from their own

0:04:25 > 0:04:27community could be capable of such killing,

0:04:27 > 0:04:30and that their city now joins the long list of America's

0:04:30 > 0:04:38school shooting tragedies.

0:04:40 > 0:04:42Nada Tawfiq, BBC News, Parkland, Florida.

0:04:42 > 0:04:45Anyone who's been abused by Oxfam staff has been invited

0:04:45 > 0:04:48by the international head of the charity to tell their story

0:04:48 > 0:04:49and obtain justice.

0:04:49 > 0:04:51Winnie Byanyima said every complaint would be

0:04:51 > 0:04:53examined by an independent commission, and wrong-doers would be

0:04:53 > 0:04:54held to account.

0:04:54 > 0:04:57She said she could not guarantee that there were no sexual

0:04:57 > 0:04:59predators among Oxfam's almost 10,000 paid workers.

0:04:59 > 0:05:01Our diplomatic correspondent, James Landale, has been

0:05:01 > 0:05:07speaking to her.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09The earthquake that struck

0:05:09 > 0:05:13The earthquake that struck in 2010 reduced much of Haiti to rubble. But

0:05:13 > 0:05:20the after-shocks are still being felt by Oxfam.

0:05:20 > 0:05:24In her native Ugandan, Oxfam's global head said sorry for the

0:05:24 > 0:05:27sexual exploitation carried out by some of her staff in Haiti,

0:05:27 > 0:05:33something she told me she only found out about last week.I'm inviting

0:05:33 > 0:05:38anyone who has been a victim of abuse to come forward, we're going

0:05:38 > 0:05:41to do justice, we are torn for the past.

0:05:41 > 0:05:46Right now thousands and thousands of Oxfam staff doing the right thing in

0:05:46 > 0:05:51the most dangerous places in the world.She promised a new

0:05:51 > 0:05:55independent commission to investigate Oxfam's handling of past

0:05:55 > 0:05:59cases, tougher new checks on staff work references and more cash for

0:05:59 > 0:06:02safeguarding vulnerable people. Changes that might in the future

0:06:02 > 0:06:07stop Oxfam employing men like Roland van Hauwermeiren, its former

0:06:07 > 0:06:13director in Haiti, who has denied paying for sex. TRANSLATION:Some

0:06:13 > 0:06:19unprofessional journalists are implying that Oxfam organises sex

0:06:19 > 0:06:24orgies using money from donations, which is absolutely untrue.

0:06:24 > 0:06:29What is true is that Oxfam now faces the huge task of trying to rebuild

0:06:29 > 0:06:32public confidence. Winnie Byanyima said more Oxfam

0:06:32 > 0:06:38staff could be sacked if they're found to have mishandled past cases,

0:06:38 > 0:06:42but... We have almost 10,000 staff around

0:06:42 > 0:06:46the world working in more than 90 countries. The majority of those are

0:06:46 > 0:06:53doing the right thing.You cannot give that guarantee that there are

0:06:53 > 0:06:57no sexual predators working for your organisation?How would I be able to

0:06:57 > 0:07:02guarantee that there is no one who is going to offend? What I can

0:07:02 > 0:07:07guarantee is that we will build a new culture that doesn't tolerate

0:07:07 > 0:07:12that behaviour. What went on in Haiti has cost Oxfam

0:07:12 > 0:07:18donations, public trust and celebrity ambassadors. Miss Byanyima

0:07:18 > 0:07:21said the organisation was demoralising but she insisted it

0:07:21 > 0:07:25would survive. What doesn't kill it, she said, will make it stronger.

0:07:25 > 0:07:26James Landale, BBC News.

0:07:26 > 0:07:29The Football Association is to review thousands of files

0:07:29 > 0:07:32to find out how much was known about the abuse carried out

0:07:32 > 0:07:35by former youth coach Barry Bennell as part of its internal review.

0:07:35 > 0:07:38Yesterday he was found guilty of another seven counts

0:07:38 > 0:07:40of sexually abusing boys, meaning he's now been convicted

0:07:40 > 0:07:43of a total of 43 offences between 1979 and 1990.

0:07:43 > 0:07:51He'll be sentenced on Monday.

0:07:51 > 0:07:56We will be speaking to two of Barry Bennell's victims on this programme

0:07:56 > 0:07:58a little later this morning, that's coming up at 6:40am.

0:07:58 > 0:08:01New figures show a dramatic reduction in the number of young

0:08:01 > 0:08:04people buying their own homes over the last 20 years.

0:08:04 > 0:08:07The Institute for Fiscal Studies found that a quarter of those under

0:08:07 > 0:08:09the age of 34, earning average incomes,

0:08:09 > 0:08:12were able to buy, compared to two thirds in 1998.

0:08:12 > 0:08:17Our finance correspondent Simon Gompertz has more.

0:08:17 > 0:08:22So I've been living here a couple of years now...30 years old, keen to

0:08:22 > 0:08:27buy but shut out of the market. Tom wants to stop paying rent in

0:08:27 > 0:08:31Brighton but house prices are beyond him.It's completely out of reach at

0:08:31 > 0:08:35the moment, there's not a chance I'll be able to get the deposit.

0:08:35 > 0:08:40There's such a cost and with utility bills, the cost of trains going to

0:08:40 > 0:08:43London, with my Brent prices it's just unachievable and my friends,

0:08:43 > 0:08:47they're all around the same age and none of us are on the property

0:08:47 > 0:08:52ladder yet.Years to give for fiscal studies looked at young people aged

0:08:52 > 0:08:5625-34 on middle incomes at the moment between around 22000 and

0:08:56 > 0:09:0230,000 for a house hold after-tax. In most cases couples with children.

0:09:02 > 0:09:07Two decades ago 65% of those on middle incomes earned their own

0:09:07 > 0:09:13homes, that's dropped to just 27%. Most of the rest forced to rent.It

0:09:13 > 0:09:17will cost you more in the long-term if you rent and you're not putting

0:09:17 > 0:09:20that money towards a mortgage that can eventually be paid off, let's

0:09:20 > 0:09:24face it. So I think we will see people less disposable income, a

0:09:24 > 0:09:29smaller savings pot and potentially as well less money to put towards

0:09:29 > 0:09:35their retirement.High household prices are making young people like

0:09:35 > 0:09:38Tom look further and further afield in the hope of finding something

0:09:38 > 0:09:42they can afford. Simon Gompertz, BBC News, Brighton.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44A BBC investigation has revealed a significant difference

0:09:44 > 0:09:47between the highest earning male and female consultants working

0:09:47 > 0:09:48for the NHS in England.

0:09:48 > 0:09:52Figures show that one in five of the top 100 earners are women,

0:09:52 > 0:09:55while on average full-time men owned 14,000 pounds a year more

0:09:55 > 0:09:57than their female counterparts when including bonuses and overtime.

0:09:57 > 0:10:05Our health correspondent Dominic Hughes explains.

0:10:07 > 0:10:10Many different organisations have faced tough questions around the gap

0:10:10 > 0:10:15in pay between men and women, not least the BBC. Now an examination of

0:10:15 > 0:10:20the pay of consultants, the most senior clinicians working in the NHS

0:10:20 > 0:10:23in England, reveals it's an issue for the health service to two.

0:10:23 > 0:10:28On average, consultants earn a basic salary of just over £85,000 a year

0:10:28 > 0:10:32but they can get paid extra, for example in overtime or special

0:10:32 > 0:10:36awards for clinical excellence. But when that figure for total pay is

0:10:36 > 0:10:43broken down for men and women, full-time female consultants earn

0:10:43 > 0:10:46£14,000 less on average than their male colleagues. And other top 100

0:10:46 > 0:10:50owners, just five are female, even though they make up more than a of

0:10:50 > 0:10:55the workforce.Certainly within the NHS there should be no disparities

0:10:55 > 0:11:03in pay because pay structures are national and are clearly publicised.

0:11:03 > 0:11:07And so other than for issues of, for example people working longer hours,

0:11:07 > 0:11:12there shouldn't be any reason for discrepancies in paid.The

0:11:12 > 0:11:14government has already announced an independent review of how the gender

0:11:14 > 0:11:19pay gap can be eliminated in medicine. It might be that men are

0:11:19 > 0:11:22more willing to work overtime or more likely to apply for an award,

0:11:22 > 0:11:27but a study in 2009 revealed a similar picture and female

0:11:27 > 0:11:32consultants say it's disappointing that these differences still exist.

0:11:32 > 0:11:33Dominic Hughes, BBC News.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36A Department of Health spokesperson said, "We are committed to ensuring

0:11:36 > 0:11:39hardworking doctors are rewarded fairly and equally for their work

0:11:39 > 0:11:41regardless of gender and have commissioned an independent report

0:11:41 > 0:11:42alongside the medical profession

0:11:42 > 0:11:46to examine how that can be achieved."

0:11:46 > 0:11:49Britain's bus network has shrunk to levels last seen in the late

0:11:49 > 0:11:511980s, that's according to a BBC investigation.

0:11:51 > 0:11:54Rising car use and cuts to public funding are being blamed

0:11:54 > 0:11:57for a loss of 134 million miles of coverage over

0:11:57 > 0:11:58the past decade alone.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01The Campaign for Better Transport says the scale of the miles lost

0:12:01 > 0:12:05is a sign that buses are on course to be cut to the same extent

0:12:05 > 0:12:11railways were in the 1960s.

0:12:11 > 0:12:13The Hollywood actress Jennifer Aniston has announced

0:12:13 > 0:12:16she is to seperate from her husband Justin Theroux after two

0:12:16 > 0:12:17years of marriage.

0:12:17 > 0:12:20The pair, who were married in a secret ceremony in Los Angeles

0:12:20 > 0:12:23in 2015, reportedly met on the set of comedy film Wanderlust.

0:12:23 > 0:12:27They gave no reason for the split but said it was a mutual decision

0:12:27 > 0:12:35which had been lovingly made at the end of last year.

0:12:35 > 0:12:38It's the beginning of what could well be the biggest annual

0:12:38 > 0:12:39celebration worldwide, the Lunar New Year,

0:12:39 > 0:12:41also known as the Spring Festival.

0:12:41 > 0:12:43More than 1.4 billion Chinese people around

0:12:43 > 0:12:46the world marked the official entry into the Year of the Dog

0:12:46 > 0:12:54with lanterns, banquets and colourful celebrations.

0:13:01 > 0:13:05Mike is here with the sport. We have been talking about it and it's

0:13:05 > 0:13:11happened?It has, you mentioned the Year of the Dog, now it is the year

0:13:11 > 0:13:15of the Dom, he has one Briton's first medal at the Winter Games,

0:13:15 > 0:13:18another milestone for skeleton because the first man to win a

0:13:18 > 0:13:23British medal in skeleton racing since 1948. Fantastic. He almost

0:13:23 > 0:13:31blew it, he came back on the last bend, it was touch and go.

0:13:31 > 0:13:33So another historic day for British sliding,

0:13:33 > 0:13:37day seven of these Winter Games has already proved to be a magnificent

0:13:37 > 0:13:39one for Team GB, as Ben Croucher reports.

0:13:39 > 0:13:46Dom Parsons!At last, six days of no medals for Great Britain, on the

0:13:46 > 0:13:50seventh that Demon was laid to rest. Dom Parsons is doing a Ph.D. In

0:13:50 > 0:13:55mechanical engineering, a study of calm before the most important two

0:13:55 > 0:13:59runs of his life. Lying in fourth Parsons got his angle is just right,

0:13:59 > 0:14:02sliding down the track but crucially up the standings after his first

0:14:02 > 0:14:07run. All he had to do now was to initiate off. If he beat the Russian

0:14:07 > 0:14:11athlete behind him he'd be guaranteed a medal, a first for

0:14:11 > 0:14:12athlete behind him he'd be guaranteed a medal, a first for, a

0:14:12 > 0:14:23British man in the sport since 1948.

0:14:23 > 0:14:26The misses out by two hundredths of a second.

0:14:26 > 0:14:30So was that wait for a medal going to continue? Parsons didn't have too

0:14:30 > 0:14:37long to find out, needing a slipup from Latvia's Martin Doctor is. --

0:14:37 > 0:14:47Martins Dukurs. I thought I'd lost it and after that

0:14:47 > 0:14:53second run, well, forefront, I thought it had gone away. Yeah, I

0:14:53 > 0:15:01looked up at the time, made a couple of mistakes on that run. But Martins

0:15:01 > 0:15:05made more mistakes and he's the last person I thought would make those

0:15:05 > 0:15:08mistakes. Parsons' teammates were the first to

0:15:08 > 0:15:11congratulate him as well. Elise Christie, having suffered her medal

0:15:11 > 0:15:16agony, was the first to express her delight but could this be a catalyst

0:15:16 > 0:15:22for GB and skeleton?Dom doing that, the guys, the development squad

0:15:22 > 0:15:26behind him have proven it isn't impossible and the girls have got

0:15:26 > 0:15:29the medals and now the guys have started it with Dom and let's see

0:15:29 > 0:15:33what the future brings more British spell skeleton.

0:15:33 > 0:15:36Now Parsons has got Britain up and running, the wait for another medal

0:15:36 > 0:15:40might not be too long, the women could add to it tomorrow. Ben

0:15:40 > 0:15:43Croucher, BBC News.

0:15:43 > 0:15:48You have to look at Jenny Jones and how it made her a household name a

0:15:48 > 0:15:51while ago and looking at the effect it will have on Dom Parsons. He's

0:15:51 > 0:15:5730, wanted to be an F1 driver, I'm sure he will settle with skeleton!I

0:15:57 > 0:16:02think skeleton is more thrilling!In both sports you need huge strong

0:16:02 > 0:16:07neck muscles.We will hear from him live later?Very exciting. Andrew

0:16:07 > 0:16:11Musgrave has just gone off in the 15 kilometre cross-country skiing

0:16:11 > 0:16:16freestyle, he could get a medal so it could get better today!

0:16:28 > 0:16:31How are we looking at the moment, Matt?

0:16:31 > 0:16:41Good morning. I am in Oxfordshire. A stunning surroundings. The alarm

0:16:41 > 0:16:47clock can be a little bit tough sometimes, but this makes it worthy.

0:16:47 > 0:16:54This was built in the early 1700 and has been the back drop for films

0:16:54 > 0:16:59like Spectre and Mission Impossible. We are looking for signs of spring.

0:16:59 > 0:17:04It is around the corner and numbers are up at the moment, but we could

0:17:04 > 0:17:10have those few hints over the next few days. Not so much if you are up

0:17:10 > 0:17:15in the early hours. Let's have a look at the forecast. Today it is

0:17:15 > 0:17:19frosty, but a fine day across most parts of the country. We will see

0:17:19 > 0:17:23some further wintry showers across the north-west, especially across

0:17:23 > 0:17:27parts of western Scotland. There is a little bit of patchy mist and fog

0:17:27 > 0:17:31which will quickly clear. As you can see there are showers towards the

0:17:31 > 0:17:36north and west, but very little cloud on the map. It will build

0:17:36 > 0:17:41towards the west later. If you have a closer look at about three o'clock

0:17:41 > 0:17:45you can see most places across England and Wales are dry. It could

0:17:45 > 0:17:49be a bit thicker in the west. Maybe patchy rain towards Northern Ireland

0:17:49 > 0:17:55and still a few showers in Scotland. The odd rumble of thunder as well,

0:17:55 > 0:17:59but nowhere near as many as yesterday. More of us will see the

0:17:59 > 0:18:02sunshine through today and the winds will be a bit lighter. Still a

0:18:02 > 0:18:06breezy northern Scotland. It will feel reasonably nice. Across

0:18:06 > 0:18:10southern areas we could see temperatures into double figures.

0:18:10 > 0:18:17Into the night, we will see a band of rain, sleet and snow into western

0:18:17 > 0:18:20fringes of England and Wales into the morning. The south-east of that

0:18:20 > 0:18:24we have a frost into the morning and as the skies clear it is showers

0:18:24 > 0:18:28later in the north-west of Scotland. It could be a little bit icy in a

0:18:28 > 0:18:33couple of. It makes for a cloudy is tight for many. In northern and

0:18:33 > 0:18:36western parts of England and Wales we have cloud and outbreaks of rain

0:18:36 > 0:18:42and maybe a bit of hill snow, which will pull south and east. A few

0:18:42 > 0:18:46showers in north-west Scotland through the day. Many will have some

0:18:46 > 0:18:51sunny spells. Not a bad day. Again, temperatures on the mild side

0:18:51 > 0:18:56compared to what we've had of late. We continue that while the theme

0:18:56 > 0:19:01into Saturday night and Sunday. More cloud developing through Saturday

0:19:01 > 0:19:05night and on Sunday that will fit in up in western Scotland and Northern

0:19:05 > 0:19:09Ireland and western fringes of England and Wales. Further east,

0:19:09 > 0:19:13especially towards East Anglia and the south-east, you may have dry

0:19:13 > 0:19:18weekend. Still a chance of sunny spells, although there will be a

0:19:18 > 0:19:22fair bit of cloud. We will have hints of spring, but we may see

0:19:22 > 0:19:28temperatures quite widely getting into double figures and not far off

0:19:28 > 0:19:32in Scotland and Northern Ireland. Before you get too complacent about

0:19:32 > 0:19:36thinking spring is with us, there are hints at the moment that things

0:19:36 > 0:19:41could turn much colder again during next week. I will keep you updated.

0:19:41 > 0:19:44You can never get too optimistic about the weather when you are

0:19:44 > 0:19:47around, Matt. Definitely not when I am here!

0:19:47 > 0:19:54Just a joke! The more double figures we see, the more we will feel like

0:19:54 > 0:19:58we are stepping into spring. See you later.

0:19:58 > 0:19:59You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.

0:19:59 > 0:20:02The main stories this morning: The FBI has launched a review

0:20:02 > 0:20:05over its handling of a warning about the teenager accused

0:20:05 > 0:20:08of carrying out a shooting at a school in Florida where 17

0:20:08 > 0:20:09people were killed.

0:20:09 > 0:20:12Team GB has claimed its first medal of the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics.

0:20:12 > 0:20:20Dom Parsons won bronze in the men's skeleton.

0:20:24 > 0:20:28We will return to our main story this morning and the murder of 17

0:20:28 > 0:20:33people. The deadliest US school shooting since 2012.

0:20:33 > 0:20:37Teachers and pupils ran for cover as 19-year-old Nikolas Cruz began his

0:20:37 > 0:20:43attack. We will now

0:20:45 > 0:20:48attack. We will now speak to Ivy Schamis, a teacher at that school,

0:20:48 > 0:20:52and she has therefore been directly affect the by what happened and some

0:20:52 > 0:20:56of the details could be distressing. Thank you for taking the time to

0:20:56 > 0:21:02speak to us. I first question to you is how are you today?Pretty

0:21:02 > 0:21:08devastated, actually. Still thinking about my students.That's completely

0:21:08 > 0:21:14understandable. If you would, could you just described where you were

0:21:14 > 0:21:18when you first realised something was happening was that I was

0:21:18 > 0:21:25actually teaching the history of the Holocaust and I have mostly seniors

0:21:25 > 0:21:33in that classed and I was in front of a big recording and we were

0:21:33 > 0:21:38finishing up on a recording of the 1936 Olympics in Berlin when we

0:21:38 > 0:21:44heard loud pop, pop, and the kids instantaneously go for the door.--

0:21:44 > 0:21:50the floor. We didn't question it, it was unmistakable. The kids were all

0:21:50 > 0:21:57trying to take cover in the classroom.So you realised something

0:21:57 > 0:22:02was happening. Was it immediately apparent it was a shooter? It came

0:22:02 > 0:22:09close to where you were. What happens next?There were a lot of

0:22:09 > 0:22:14students and so we just tried to go behind my desk, the Hind the file

0:22:14 > 0:22:21cabinet, behind the laptop. They tried to find cover. It was

0:22:21 > 0:22:27instantaneous, but within seconds the student came to my door and he

0:22:27 > 0:22:33shot out the whole glass panel in the door and hitting students while

0:22:33 > 0:22:41he did that.This is the point, this is so awful for you, I know, you

0:22:41 > 0:22:44lost some of the students who were in your class at that time?Yes,

0:22:44 > 0:22:50sir. We didn't know it at the time. He hit several students and they

0:22:50 > 0:22:54were injured and I didn't realise at that moment will stop two were

0:22:54 > 0:22:59female and male student who were seniors and ready to go to college

0:22:59 > 0:23:05soon. They were killed.I really seeking not to distress you any

0:23:05 > 0:23:09further and I know this is very difficult for you. We now have seen

0:23:09 > 0:23:12some of the names of the ages of those students. These will be

0:23:12 > 0:23:20students you know well. 14, 15, 16 and 17 years old. You've had a

0:23:20 > 0:23:24little time to try to understand a bit more of what happened. Watched

0:23:24 > 0:23:31you of it now?I make no sense of this. It was completely random.

0:23:31 > 0:23:37Completely senseless. This teenager should not have had an assault rifle

0:23:37 > 0:23:43at all. I don't think we were targeted, I didn't know the shooter,

0:23:43 > 0:23:47I've been teaching at that school for 17 years and never had him. It

0:23:47 > 0:23:51is a large suburban high school, I don't know him, so I think whatever

0:23:51 > 0:23:58then that he had he just randomly sought out several classrooms and

0:23:58 > 0:24:02unfortunately mine was one of them. From what we understand, and explain

0:24:02 > 0:24:08this for us, you were explaining how your students reacted, that they did

0:24:08 > 0:24:12exactly the right thing at the time, notwithstanding the terrible loss

0:24:12 > 0:24:15that you've suffered within your classroom. But they did the right

0:24:15 > 0:24:19thing. It was something you had rehearsed for? You had trained your

0:24:19 > 0:24:25students for?Yes. We have been practising because of everything

0:24:25 > 0:24:30that we've seen on the news, we've been practising what would happen in

0:24:30 > 0:24:35code black or code red, and we were not ready for shots to be fired in

0:24:35 > 0:24:39the hallway, we didn't practice for that, but they knew right away just

0:24:39 > 0:24:43to take cover. No one thought, this is a drill, no one looked around,

0:24:43 > 0:24:49they just immediately... I was very proud of them. They immediately ran

0:24:49 > 0:24:53to find anything to cover themselves and find something to hide behind.

0:24:53 > 0:25:00They all crowded behind my desk and tried to call 911.It is very early,

0:25:00 > 0:25:04especially someone so close to the event as you were, to have these

0:25:04 > 0:25:07discussions, but I don't know what security measures you had in place

0:25:07 > 0:25:11at your school and some people are saying there should be an armed

0:25:11 > 0:25:15police officer in schools now. What do you make of those... That thought

0:25:15 > 0:25:25process?We have an armed police officer, but it's an extremely large

0:25:25 > 0:25:28campus and I guess he can't be everywhere all the time. We didn't

0:25:28 > 0:25:36really see this coming. I... I don't know. I mean, I don't think I should

0:25:36 > 0:25:40have been armed and I don't think teachers should be armed, as I don't

0:25:40 > 0:25:43think those teenagers should have had an assault rifle over. I don't

0:25:43 > 0:25:47know how you get ready for this. Just a couple of last thoughts. Are

0:25:47 > 0:25:53you going to be going back to the school itself? I know there have

0:25:53 > 0:26:01been vigils held.This must be agonising times. Very, however I did

0:26:01 > 0:26:05go yesterday in the afternoon and I was there for several hours. The

0:26:05 > 0:26:08students felt it was quite therapeutic and we were able to

0:26:08 > 0:26:12reunite. There are a lot of rumours flying around, but I was injured or

0:26:12 > 0:26:18killed, so just by seeing each other and being with each other, I have no

0:26:18 > 0:26:23idea when school will be ready to be in session.Given that you were in

0:26:23 > 0:26:27the classroom when this occurred and the students you know so well, how

0:26:27 > 0:26:32do you think you will go about helping them deal with something no

0:26:32 > 0:26:36young person, indeed no teacher, though people, should ever have to

0:26:36 > 0:26:42go through?No one should ever. I didn't think I would have to do this

0:26:42 > 0:26:46either. I just think if I am there for them, I love my students dearly,

0:26:46 > 0:26:51I feel like if I listen, we listen, and we talk about it and it really

0:26:51 > 0:26:56does help to talk and listen to what they have to say and just let them

0:26:56 > 0:27:01know that we love them. We love them.I really thank you for your

0:27:01 > 0:27:05time this morning. I know it's a very difficult time for you. Thank

0:27:05 > 0:27:12you very much.Thank you so much. That's Ivy Schamis. She was teaching

0:27:12 > 0:27:20in a class when the shooter arrived in her school.

0:27:20 > 0:27:23We will be talking a lot more about that throughout the programme.

0:27:23 > 0:30:44Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are.

0:30:44 > 0:30:45drizzle later. Have a nice day. Don't

0:30:45 > 0:30:47drizzle later. Have a nice day. Don't forget, 20 more on our website

0:30:47 > 0:30:51at the usual address. Goodbye.

0:30:56 > 0:30:59Welcome back, you're watching Breakfast with Charlie Stayt and

0:30:59 > 0:31:04Naga Munchetty. Here's a summary of the main stories from BBC News: The

0:31:04 > 0:31:08FBI is investigating how it handled a warning about the teenager accused

0:31:08 > 0:31:13of carrying out Wednesday's school shooting in Florida, which left 17

0:31:13 > 0:31:20dead. Nikolas Cruz, 19, reportedly posted a YouTube comment claiming he

0:31:20 > 0:31:24would be a professional school shooter. Tributes were paid to his

0:31:24 > 0:31:27victims with vigils through the night.

0:31:27 > 0:31:29The former Oxfam director, accused of hiring prostitutes

0:31:29 > 0:31:32while working in Haiti and Chad, has denied paying for sex but said

0:31:32 > 0:31:36he had made some mistakes.

0:31:36 > 0:31:38In an open letter, he admitted he'd had

0:31:38 > 0:31:39an intimate relationship

0:31:39 > 0:31:42with a woman in Haiti, but said she was not a prostiture.

0:31:42 > 0:31:44The international head of the charity

0:31:44 > 0:31:46has invited anyone who's been abused by Oxfam

0:31:46 > 0:31:48staff to tell their story and obtain justice.

0:31:48 > 0:31:51New figures show a dramatic reduction in the number of young

0:31:51 > 0:31:54people buying their own homes over the last 20 years.

0:31:54 > 0:31:57The Institute for Fiscal Studies found that a quarter of those under

0:31:57 > 0:31:59the age of 34, earning average incomes,

0:31:59 > 0:32:07were able to buy, compared to two thirds in 1998.

0:32:07 > 0:32:09A BBC investigation has revealed a significant difference

0:32:09 > 0:32:11between the highest earning male and female consultants working

0:32:11 > 0:32:15for the NHS in England.

0:32:15 > 0:32:20Figures show that one in five of the top 100 earners are women,

0:32:20 > 0:32:23while on average full-time men owned £14,000 a year more

0:32:23 > 0:32:26than their female counterparts when including bonuses and overtime.

0:32:26 > 0:32:31Only 5% of women among the top 100 owners. The Department of Health

0:32:31 > 0:32:34said it's committed to ensuring doctors are awarded fairly equally

0:32:34 > 0:32:35regardless of gender.

0:32:35 > 0:32:37The Hollywood actress Jennifer Aniston has announced

0:32:37 > 0:32:40she is to separate from her husband Justin Theroux after two

0:32:40 > 0:32:41years of marriage.

0:32:41 > 0:32:44The pair, who were married in a secret ceremony in Los Angeles

0:32:44 > 0:32:47in 2015, reportedly met on the set of comedy film Wanderlust.

0:32:47 > 0:32:51They gave no reason for the split but said it was a mutual decision

0:32:51 > 0:32:59which had been "lovingly made" at the end of last year.

0:32:59 > 0:33:03Those are the main stories this morning. Good morning, Mike.It has

0:33:03 > 0:33:08started, the medal rush for Great Britain, Dom Parsons in the skeleton

0:33:08 > 0:33:13with his bronze and by around 705, we could have a second with Andrew

0:33:13 > 0:33:19Musgrave competing in the cross-country seeing -- 7:05am. They

0:33:19 > 0:33:22have started in the 15 kilometre cross-country skiing but let's focus

0:33:22 > 0:33:27on the historic moment for Dom Parsons. The first medal for Britain

0:33:27 > 0:33:33at these Games. He thought the medal had slipped away after a couple of

0:33:33 > 0:33:41errors on his final run in the skeleton, but... Latvia's Martin

0:33:41 > 0:33:44stutters when slower guaranteeing Great Britain a first men's skeleton

0:33:44 > 0:33:50medal in 17 years.

0:33:50 > 0:33:55medal in 17 years. Sunbing Yun was bird.

0:33:55 > 0:33:58I thought I'd lost it and after that second run,

0:33:58 > 0:34:00well, fourth run, I thought it had gone away.

0:34:00 > 0:34:03Yeah, I looked up at the time, made a couple

0:34:03 > 0:34:04too many mistakes on that run.

0:34:04 > 0:34:07But Martins made more mistakes and he's the last

0:34:07 > 0:34:10person I thought would make those mistakes.

0:34:10 > 0:34:14We were trying to bring you the commentary, it was special, on the

0:34:14 > 0:34:21final bend, listen to how the commentators reacted here.

0:34:24 > 0:34:26commentators reacted here.Five hundredths between himself and

0:34:26 > 0:34:32Parsons at the second last term. Behind Parsons, Dom Parsons

0:34:32 > 0:34:45unbelievably has his medal! Yes, Don! For Great Britain! -- Dom.As a

0:34:45 > 0:34:48commentator that will be one of the highlights of your whole career, I

0:34:48 > 0:34:53love the laughter in the background, the uncontrolled, unbridled joy.

0:34:53 > 0:34:58There's a realisation that the timing is our edging ahead by a tiny

0:34:58 > 0:35:03little bit.You have to do your bit and wait for the Latvian as well to

0:35:03 > 0:35:10not quite match your time, which is what happened. Next we going to look

0:35:10 > 0:35:14at Andrew Musgrave because he is in action in the 15 K cross-country

0:35:14 > 0:35:18seeing which claims to be the hardest of all winter sports because

0:35:18 > 0:35:25of the endurance and the pain you go through in training. We can go live

0:35:25 > 0:35:36to South Korea. Musgrave is a genuine medal contender. He got a

0:35:36 > 0:35:42third place in the World Cup event in Italy in December, so he has done

0:35:42 > 0:35:47it, he has got form. It's a bit like a time trial, they go out in

0:35:47 > 0:35:50staggered starts and it's all about the time they can achieve so we

0:35:50 > 0:35:55should get a split of Musgrave's time to see how he's getting on in a

0:35:55 > 0:35:58few moments.They've been struggling with the weather but it looks like

0:35:58 > 0:36:02perfect conditions, bright sunshine. When they have been training and

0:36:02 > 0:36:06racing here before, it is freezing, but they have got a pleasant day

0:36:06 > 0:36:10with the sun shining, one of those lovely skiing days when the sun is

0:36:10 > 0:36:15basking on the piste and you feel a bit of warmth, which must help.It's

0:36:15 > 0:36:18moments like this when you know they're getting a little bit of

0:36:18 > 0:36:23relief as they go down the hill.You have to go to the BBC sport website

0:36:23 > 0:36:27and see how Andrew Musgrave trains because he goes on roller skis

0:36:27 > 0:36:34around Scotland and Norway, and also there is a treadmill for roller skis

0:36:34 > 0:36:37and he shared this one clip in which he flies off!

0:36:39 > 0:36:44Trying to prove why it's the hardest of all Winter Olympic sports.Are

0:36:44 > 0:36:49roller skis long versions of roller blades?They are skis with wheels

0:36:49 > 0:36:53you can go on the road with.That's the live event, are we going to get

0:36:53 > 0:37:01an idea of the split?Not yet.He only started around 6:30am.

0:37:01 > 0:37:04Briefly away from the Winter Olympics...

0:37:04 > 0:37:05Scotland will this morning announce

0:37:05 > 0:37:07Alex Mcleish as their new football manager.

0:37:07 > 0:37:10It'll be his second stint in charge of the national side,

0:37:10 > 0:37:12having left the post 11 years ago.

0:37:12 > 0:37:14He replaces Gordon Strachan, who left in October after failing

0:37:14 > 0:37:16to qualify for the World Cup.

0:37:16 > 0:37:19There was sucess in the last 32 of Europa League for Celtic.

0:37:19 > 0:37:22They managed a 1-0 victory over Russian side Zenit St Petersberg

0:37:22 > 0:37:23at Celtic Park.

0:37:23 > 0:37:26Calum McGregor's second half winner means they Glasgow side

0:37:26 > 0:37:28have the slight advantage going into the second leg

0:37:28 > 0:37:29in a weeks' time.

0:37:29 > 0:37:32Meanwhile, the impressive week for English clubs in Europe

0:37:32 > 0:37:33continued with a comfortable 3-0

0:37:33 > 0:37:35away win for Arsenal against Ostersunds.

0:37:35 > 0:37:38Mesut Ozil with the last of the goals in their first leg

0:37:38 > 0:37:46against the Swedish side.

0:37:48 > 0:37:53The women go later on, including Laura Dees and Lizzy Yarnold in the

0:37:53 > 0:37:57skeleton and I have been to see Lizzy Yarnold in training in Germany

0:37:57 > 0:38:01to see how she feels about becoming the first British athlete to try to

0:38:01 > 0:38:05retain an Olympic title.We will get the split at some point.See you

0:38:05 > 0:38:07later.

0:38:07 > 0:38:13For 25 years, Barry Bennell lived a double life.

0:38:13 > 0:38:15Publicly lauded as one of English football's best talent

0:38:15 > 0:38:18spotters, but in private he carried out a campaign of sexual abuse

0:38:18 > 0:38:19against young boys.

0:38:19 > 0:38:22He's been convicted of a total of 43 charges relating

0:38:22 > 0:38:24to assaults carried out between 1979 and 1990.

0:38:24 > 0:38:30One of his victims was David Lean, who joins us now.

0:38:30 > 0:38:35Good morning.Good morning.Thank you so much for joining us this

0:38:35 > 0:38:40morning. Just before we talk in a bit more detail about what happened

0:38:40 > 0:38:45to you, I'm imagining the events of the past few years, specifically the

0:38:45 > 0:38:50past few days, must feel very important for you?It is great to

0:38:50 > 0:38:57finally see justice. I don't feel I got justice in 2015, he just got a

0:38:57 > 0:39:01two-year sentence, served 12 months. I always knew there was going to be

0:39:01 > 0:39:06many more. Told everybody there was many more. Finally it's been shown

0:39:06 > 0:39:11there's been many more.I think we will go through who you told and who

0:39:11 > 0:39:15did or didn't react appropriately perhaps as we can now say, but what

0:39:15 > 0:39:19happened to you? It was in the 1980s that you came across Barry Bennell.

0:39:19 > 0:39:26It was 79, met him in May at the Butlins holiday camp, he was the

0:39:26 > 0:39:29resident football coach there and instantly took a shine to me. The

0:39:29 > 0:39:35sessions were for ten to 14-year-old boys, was only 11. He took a real

0:39:35 > 0:39:39shine, told me he had links to Manchester City and alternately

0:39:39 > 0:39:44after that he wanted me to try and go and play for his feeder team.

0:39:44 > 0:39:47What did that mean in terms of your parents, they would have been so

0:39:47 > 0:39:53excited, talented child, every opportunity?Absolutely. I was doing

0:39:53 > 0:39:57quite well at football anyway in my own home town of Blackpool. He was

0:39:57 > 0:40:02basically saying to me, yeah, he's a real star. My dad was never a pushy

0:40:02 > 0:40:07parent but he was always right behind my dream so it meant

0:40:07 > 0:40:10everything to my dad as well, he spent time talking to my dad during

0:40:10 > 0:40:15those sessions so he got to know him quite well.There was a point when

0:40:15 > 0:40:18you were invited to stay at his house while you were on a training

0:40:18 > 0:40:21camp? We had been writing to each other

0:40:21 > 0:40:26for about 11 months at that stage. He basically said there is a

0:40:26 > 0:40:30full-day course on the Friday, a soccer coaching course, skills,

0:40:30 > 0:40:35that's the kind of thing I loved, it was a chance for me to go and state,

0:40:35 > 0:40:38do the course but it was quite an early start on the Friday, so go

0:40:38 > 0:40:44down Thursday, stay over and rather than your dad rush up to work on the

0:40:44 > 0:40:48Friday, come down Saturday morning to pick you up, so tonight.You were

0:40:48 > 0:40:53in his house, did the training course, what happened?From the

0:40:53 > 0:40:58second my dad drove off and we went into the property it was just...

0:40:58 > 0:41:05Complete attention. He just never left me alone, he was constantly

0:41:05 > 0:41:10play fighting with you, tickling, hugging up to you on the couch,

0:41:10 > 0:41:15rubbing his bristle on your cheeks when he pinned you down but it was

0:41:15 > 0:41:20all playful at that stage. In the kitchen, whipping you with tea

0:41:20 > 0:41:23towels, just generally messing around. But there was a lot of mass

0:41:23 > 0:41:28Arj and stuff. He was very touchy-feely the whole time -- mass

0:41:28 > 0:41:34Arj. Obviously things changed when I got into bed and he came back from

0:41:34 > 0:41:37getting himself ready and just jumped into bed.David, do you

0:41:37 > 0:41:44remember the time when you first... We can feel how hard it is even now

0:41:44 > 0:41:47to recount these things. Do you remember the time when you first

0:41:47 > 0:41:53told someone else?Believe it or not I don't actually remember it. The

0:41:53 > 0:41:57first thing I said to my dad when my dad pick me ups on the Saturday

0:41:57 > 0:42:01morning is he'd been trying to get into bed with me but I wouldn't let

0:42:01 > 0:42:05him and he slept on the floor. My dad mentioned that to the police at

0:42:05 > 0:42:08his interview but I've got no recollection of saying that. Other

0:42:08 > 0:42:13than that, the next time I spoke was when I walk into a police station in

0:42:13 > 0:42:16Macclesfield on the fourth of February, 2013, and disclosed.

0:42:16 > 0:42:20Effectively for all those years it was something you had kept inside?

0:42:20 > 0:42:26Yeah. There's a lot of reasons. You know, pure embarrassment, trying to

0:42:26 > 0:42:30deal with it yourself, the way your own body reacts to the abuse isn't

0:42:30 > 0:42:36the way you would want your body to react to the abuse. Massage in plain

0:42:36 > 0:42:41terms you were a young man, a young boy, and he was predatory, sexually

0:42:41 > 0:42:45attacking you? That is confusing for any young

0:42:45 > 0:42:53child?It messes messes with your head for a long time afterwards.

0:42:53 > 0:43:00After the abuse the psychological stuff affects you worse.At the

0:43:00 > 0:43:06start of this conversation you said there were going to be others, you

0:43:06 > 0:43:10have spoken to the police and the football Association, can you tell

0:43:10 > 0:43:15us initially how you feel you were reacted to as an adult saying what

0:43:15 > 0:43:19had been going on?Generally the police were good with me. I told

0:43:19 > 0:43:23them there was many, I told them there were many more, he was

0:43:23 > 0:43:27coaching at that stage for 15 or 20 years and during that period they

0:43:27 > 0:43:31are saying he abused six or seven boys who had been found at that

0:43:31 > 0:43:35stage when I went into the police station and he had been previously

0:43:35 > 0:43:39convicted for those. Are told them there would be many more. I asked to

0:43:39 > 0:43:43go to the media but they said not to do that because it would ruin my

0:43:43 > 0:43:49case -- I told. It was the first time I had any... I had used the

0:43:49 > 0:43:54criminal justice system in any way, I had no idea how it would go and I

0:43:54 > 0:43:57told the CPS when I had my meeting after they dropped my case on public

0:43:57 > 0:44:01interest grounds, they said that because he had been convicted prior

0:44:01 > 0:44:05to myself that it wouldn't be in the public interest to take my case

0:44:05 > 0:44:10forward.Can I just ask, David, many people of course, many organisations

0:44:10 > 0:44:13are asking themselves officially or unofficial league a lot of questions

0:44:13 > 0:44:17about why he was allowed to do what he did for so long -- and

0:44:17 > 0:44:23officially. Do you take any comfort from that? Are you concerned people

0:44:23 > 0:44:27won't forget about it quickly and would ask the right questions?

0:44:27 > 0:44:33Absolutely. Abuse is going on everywhere, sexual abuse is

0:44:33 > 0:44:37continuing to this day and it will be continuing right through football

0:44:37 > 0:44:41to this day at grassroots level, I'm absolutely convinced of that. This

0:44:41 > 0:44:44has got to be something that continues to be in the public

0:44:44 > 0:44:48spotlight and people continue to campaign.Even now there are

0:44:48 > 0:44:51football clubs that haven't got the right structures in place to stop

0:44:51 > 0:44:56this?I'm not talking professional clubs, the game has moved on a long

0:44:56 > 0:44:59way, but grassroots football everywhere with people in positions

0:44:59 > 0:45:04of power and trust. I ran a junior football team myself for many years

0:45:04 > 0:45:09and it's very easy for the parents to let you pick their children up,

0:45:09 > 0:45:13shall we say, and you go and watch any junior game on the sidelines

0:45:13 > 0:45:19this weekend when they get to under 12s, under 13s, very few parents are

0:45:19 > 0:45:25watching. Managers go round and let's be fair, 99% of managers will

0:45:25 > 0:45:29be fantastic, wonderfully dedicated volunteers but they will be that 1%.

0:45:29 > 0:45:33Now these convictions have been made, do you feel you can move on

0:45:33 > 0:45:41with your life?It will always be there, there's no doubt about that,

0:45:41 > 0:45:45but it is something now that I want to campaign for. I've been trying

0:45:45 > 0:45:50hard to do that and raise awareness and speak publicly about it, but it

0:45:50 > 0:45:54is still very difficult and raw and emotional and my wife has been

0:45:54 > 0:45:59fantastic because obviously when we met she had no idea, and so it hit

0:45:59 > 0:46:07her cold as well. She's been very supportive. But the justice that

0:46:07 > 0:46:14I've got now and the feeling that I've got now is very much going to

0:46:14 > 0:46:19help.Thank you so much for talking to us and for all the work you are

0:46:19 > 0:46:22doing and for being so brave to talk to us.

0:46:22 > 0:46:26Thank you very much.

0:46:26 > 0:46:29Matt's out at Blenheim Palace this morning to take a look

0:46:29 > 0:46:31at today's weather.

0:46:31 > 0:46:32Good morning!

0:46:32 > 0:46:37Good morning! Good morning. Yes, we are at

0:46:37 > 0:46:42Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire this morning. Stunning surroundings. The

0:46:42 > 0:46:47building behind me has history stretching back 300 years. It was

0:46:47 > 0:46:52the birthplace of Winston Churchill and it's a world in as the heritage

0:46:52 > 0:46:56site as well. Not just the building of course, there are beautiful

0:46:56 > 0:47:02surroundings. Parklands, forestry and a lake. We are looking for hints

0:47:02 > 0:47:09of spring this morning, but certainly there is still a hint of

0:47:09 > 0:47:13winter, because it's a cold start the day, a frost. If we take a look

0:47:13 > 0:47:17at the forecast there is a frost in many parts of the country.

0:47:17 > 0:47:23Temperatures at or below freezing. Most will have a fine winter's day

0:47:23 > 0:47:27with sunshine, but we continue to have showers in the north and west.

0:47:27 > 0:47:31Showers in the north-west will be wintry, nowhere near as abundant as

0:47:31 > 0:47:35yesterday. And we will see cloud gathered across western areas into

0:47:35 > 0:47:39the afternoon, which will turn the sunshine hazy. A few showers may be

0:47:39 > 0:47:44into Northern Ireland, but it will be across parts of western Scotland

0:47:44 > 0:47:49where you can see the showers coming and going. Sleet and snow and maybe

0:47:49 > 0:47:54thundered mixed in. Cabbages for the afternoon, similar to what we've

0:47:54 > 0:48:01seen in recent days. Peaking at about... INAUDIBLE... Given the fact

0:48:01 > 0:48:05that the sun has a bit of strength to it, it will feel pleasant in the

0:48:05 > 0:48:11afternoon. Tonight, as we see the sky is clear in southern parts,

0:48:11 > 0:48:16there will be a frost. Northern Ireland, maybe the heavy burst of

0:48:16 > 0:48:24rain. That will keep temperatures up. To the north we will have a

0:48:24 > 0:48:28frost. To the south, frost as well. Through Saturday we will see

0:48:28 > 0:48:31southern and eastern areas staying largely dry through the morning.

0:48:31 > 0:48:35Cloudy into the afternoon. After a spell of rain and drizzle in

0:48:35 > 0:48:41northern England, Wales and the Midlands, that will fizzle out. To

0:48:41 > 0:48:44the north we will have showers and some wintry showers. Dry weather

0:48:44 > 0:48:49around on Saturday. Some sunny spells and still staying fairly

0:48:49 > 0:48:54mild. Through Saturday night we will see the cloud and rain start to ease

0:48:54 > 0:48:58where we have it in southern areas. But thicker cloud will gradually

0:48:58 > 0:49:02pushing from the west. Temperatures will stay up, so we shouldn't see

0:49:02 > 0:49:06much of a frost, but by and large sum eastern areas will still see

0:49:06 > 0:49:10breaks in the cloud, with sunshine. In the west there will be more

0:49:10 > 0:49:14outbreaks of rain and drizzle, but not the temperatures. Single figures

0:49:14 > 0:49:20only just. Most places into double figures by this stage. The weekend,

0:49:20 > 0:49:25it will be mild. Saturday isn't bad for many. In the Sunday we will have

0:49:25 > 0:49:28outbreaks of rain and drizzle out in the west. That's how your forecast

0:49:28 > 0:49:30is looking. I will bring you

0:49:30 > 0:49:31the west. That's how your forecast is looking. I will bring you more

0:49:31 > 0:49:34wonderful sites throughout the morning.

0:49:34 > 0:49:39It will be glorious. Thanks very much.

0:49:39 > 0:49:43It has been 30 years since GCSEs were introduced in England, Wales

0:49:43 > 0:49:50and Northern Ireland, but one subject remains tricky for many.

0:49:50 > 0:49:54Maths.

0:49:54 > 0:49:57Our teenagers rank 27th in the world and that poor performance

0:49:57 > 0:49:59continues into adulthood. So what's the problem?

0:49:59 > 0:50:01We're launching a special series to try to find out,

0:50:01 > 0:50:02We're launching a special series to try to find out,

0:50:02 > 0:50:05and to show that maths can be interesting - and even fun.

0:50:05 > 0:50:08Breakfast's Jayne McCubbin and Tim Muffet and Naga will be

0:50:08 > 0:50:10taking their maths GCSE this summer.

0:50:10 > 0:50:11Revision or learning has begun. Let's

0:50:11 > 0:50:17Let's have a look.

0:50:17 > 0:50:28We are going back to school. I never knew what this was for.What I

0:50:28 > 0:50:34remember from my maths days, I remember phone is the size of house

0:50:34 > 0:50:35bricks.

0:50:35 > 0:50:37remember phone is the size of house bricks.I can't remember much maths.

0:50:37 > 0:50:41I love learning every day, so if anything I'm going to get to sharpen

0:50:41 > 0:50:45the old brain and probably really appreciate just how tough it is.

0:50:45 > 0:50:52Good morning. I'm going to be your maths teacher throughout your GCSE

0:50:52 > 0:50:57course.Good morning!You may remember me from University

0:50:57 > 0:51:06Challenge. I have a doctorate from Cambridge University. In four months

0:51:06 > 0:51:16you will be setting -- sitting the maths GCSE for real. I set you a

0:51:16 > 0:51:23challenge, our past GCSE paper. How did you find them?Really bad. For

0:51:23 > 0:51:30me, expand and simple five. What does that even mean? It's just a

0:51:30 > 0:51:35terminology which I haven't used for like 30 odd years.Hearing you say

0:51:35 > 0:51:39that is already making me feel a bit nervous. What did I get that school

0:51:39 > 0:51:51from maths in old money? I got a D. I hope I can help make it a bit more

0:51:51 > 0:51:55at the end of it.I quite enjoyed remembering some of the maths I used

0:51:55 > 0:52:01to do. I love algebra. I did my maths GCSE a couple of years early

0:52:01 > 0:52:06and got an A. I always loved maths, but I will be honest, I haven't seen

0:52:06 > 0:52:11a paper in years. This is how you measure the area of the circle and

0:52:11 > 0:52:16the circumference of a circle.OK, Pythagoras theorem. Can anyone tell

0:52:16 > 0:52:23me?Hypotenuse.

0:52:24 > 0:52:29me?Hypotenuse.Jane, do you know what a squared is? If it is three

0:52:29 > 0:52:34centimetres?Nine. I know I shouldn't be thinking this, but I am

0:52:34 > 0:52:39thinking I haven't got a maths brain.There's no such thing as a

0:52:39 > 0:52:44maths brain. People have a negative or positive experiences to maths and

0:52:44 > 0:52:49that leads them to think they can or can't do maths.How important is it

0:52:49 > 0:52:53for parents to not give off this message being I'm terrible at maths,

0:52:53 > 0:52:58I don't understand it?50% of working age adults have the new

0:52:58 > 0:53:02Brucie skills you would expect of an 11-year-old. So they haven't got a

0:53:02 > 0:53:06clue when their kids ask them for help. If we are going to change the

0:53:06 > 0:53:10way maths is perceived in the country, have to work with adults as

0:53:10 > 0:53:13well.I think we are going to enjoy it. I'm going to be the positive

0:53:13 > 0:53:19one.I wonder if I'm beyond that point in my life and it's too late.

0:53:19 > 0:53:31We can do this.One fear down, 58 to go.Can we do it? Yes, we can!You

0:53:31 > 0:53:36saw him dead, one of the biggest maths brains in business and he is

0:53:36 > 0:53:42helping us that the morning. -- saw < KIM good morning. Why do 70 people

0:53:42 > 0:53:49a problem with maths?It isn't an easy subject but it is also an image

0:53:49 > 0:53:53problem. There is a perception that there is a maths brain, people can

0:53:53 > 0:53:59do it or not. I think that's wrong. Secondly there is a perception that

0:53:59 > 0:54:05it is almost like a badge of honour to say you can't do maths and that's

0:54:05 > 0:54:10something I want to tackle.I think our teenagers are 27th in the world.

0:54:10 > 0:54:15That's not good for business or future.Absolutely. We need to find

0:54:15 > 0:54:18a way of encouraging kids to become better at maths and parents and

0:54:18 > 0:54:21adults to change their attitude towards it, they can support their

0:54:21 > 0:54:27children.I was one of those annoying kids that really enjoyed

0:54:27 > 0:54:33doing your times table when you got up and you could only sit down when

0:54:33 > 0:54:36you got it right. That's intimidating for a lot of children,

0:54:36 > 0:54:42the way it is taught.Sometimes it is binary, right or wrong, but I

0:54:42 > 0:54:46think we need to change the way that is perceived. Mathematics is more

0:54:46 > 0:54:49than getting the right answers. It's about creative thinking and if we

0:54:49 > 0:54:56can move it to see the exciting part of it.Something we are excited

0:54:56 > 0:55:00about is you have set up the challenge this morning, which we can

0:55:00 > 0:55:09do at home.Shall we explain it? It is the year of the dog, so I am

0:55:09 > 0:55:15going to be hosting a handover party at the zoo for the top dogs.

0:55:15 > 0:55:21Roosters and monkeys as well. In this particular party there are

0:55:21 > 0:55:26twice as many dogs as roosters and twice as many roosters as monkeys.

0:55:26 > 0:55:32And we assume that all the dogs have four feet and all the roosters and

0:55:32 > 0:55:37monkeys have two feet. So there are 88 animal feet at this party. How

0:55:37 > 0:55:44many dogs, roosters and monkeys are there at this party?It will take a

0:55:44 > 0:55:50little bit of working out, but it is definitely doable. We are going to

0:55:50 > 0:55:54put our puzzle on our Twitter page and if you want to find out the

0:55:54 > 0:56:02answer, try to GCSE maths question. And people can go online and get the

0:56:02 > 0:56:07answers. Interactive learning is more encouraged now?People are used

0:56:07 > 0:56:12to interactivity and getting answers immediately, so the more we can

0:56:12 > 0:56:21adapt to that the better.Thank you. We will put the puzzle on our social

0:56:21 > 0:56:21media page.

0:56:21 > 0:59:44Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are.

0:59:44 > 0:59:46with patchy outbreaks of light rain and drizzle later.

0:59:46 > 0:59:47Have a nice day.

0:59:47 > 0:59:50Plenty more on our website at the usual address.

0:59:50 > 0:59:52Bye for now.

0:59:52 > 0:59:53Hello, this is Breakfast,

0:59:53 > 0:59:54with Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty.

0:59:54 > 0:59:57The suspect in America's latest high school shooting appears

0:59:57 > 0:59:59in court charged with 17 counts of murder.

0:59:59 > 1:00:0119-year-old Nikolas Cruz is accused of carrying

1:00:01 > 1:00:05out his killing spree at a campus in Florida.

1:00:05 > 1:00:08Police say that just moments after his attack the teenager ate

1:00:08 > 1:00:16at a McDonald's and Subway before being arrested.

1:00:18 > 1:00:22Tributes have been paid to his victims as vigils.

1:00:22 > 1:00:26One teacher told us of her harrowing ordeal.

1:00:26 > 1:00:34One student came to my door and he shot out a glass panel of the door,

1:00:34 > 1:00:42hitting students as he did that.

1:00:48 > 1:00:51Good morning, it's Friday the 16th of February.

1:00:51 > 1:00:51Also this morning:

1:00:51 > 1:00:54The aid worker at the centre of the Oxfam

1:00:54 > 1:00:55scandal speaks publically

1:00:55 > 1:00:58for the first time as he denies using prostitutes in Haiti.

1:00:58 > 1:00:58And in sport,

1:00:58 > 1:00:59Dom's done it...

1:00:59 > 1:01:07It's a first medal for Britain at the Winter Olympics.

1:01:08 > 1:01:12Behind Parsons and Dom Parsons unbelievably has his medal!Yes,

1:01:12 > 1:01:15Don!For Great Britain!

1:01:15 > 1:01:18Young people have just one in four chance of gettign on the property

1:01:18 > 1:01:19ladder according new research.

1:01:19 > 1:01:21It's blamed on rising prices and a shortgage

1:01:21 > 1:01:24of new homes being built.

1:01:24 > 1:01:26And Breakfast goes back to school.

1:01:26 > 1:01:29We're beginning a new series looking at the UK's maths problem,

1:01:29 > 1:01:32some of our very best brains will be put through their GCSE paces.

1:01:32 > 1:01:38And Matt has the weather.

1:01:38 > 1:01:44Are we seeing the first signs of spring?Good morning. Join me

1:01:44 > 1:01:48through the morning at Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire, looking for

1:01:48 > 1:01:53signs of spring as temperatures rise over the next few days but Friday, a

1:01:53 > 1:01:57frosty scene but a pleasant winter's day ahead. Your full forecast in 15

1:01:57 > 1:01:58minutes.

1:01:58 > 1:01:59Good morning.

1:01:59 > 1:02:00First, our main story.

1:02:00 > 1:02:03The 19-year-old accused of carrying out a school shooting in Florida,

1:02:03 > 1:02:06which left 17 people dead, has appeared in court charged

1:02:06 > 1:02:07with premeditated murder.

1:02:07 > 1:02:09Nikolas Cruz went on a killing spree in the town

1:02:09 > 1:02:10of Parkland on Wednesday.

1:02:10 > 1:02:14The FBI is now investigating how it handled a warning that the teenager

1:02:14 > 1:02:16reportedly posted on YouTube claiming he would be

1:02:16 > 1:02:24a professional school shooter.

1:02:26 > 1:02:29Vigils were held late into the night in tribute to the victims,

1:02:29 > 1:02:30as Nada Tawfiq reports.

1:02:30 > 1:02:33They came to mourn the lives lost and the lives scarred

1:02:33 > 1:02:34by this senseless attack.

1:02:34 > 1:02:37Neighbours, friends and the students of Stoneman Douglas High comforted

1:02:37 > 1:02:40one another as best they could.

1:02:40 > 1:02:44Jed Westmer was among the students who ran in panic once the first

1:02:44 > 1:02:45shots were fired.

1:02:45 > 1:02:48He doesn't know if he can handle returning to the halls

1:02:48 > 1:02:50where his classmates' lives were cut short.

1:02:50 > 1:02:53I don't know if I'll be able to cope with just walking

1:02:53 > 1:02:55through the bottom floor of the freshman building,

1:02:55 > 1:02:57knowing that everything has been cleaned up...

1:02:57 > 1:02:59Like, everything - you can almost imagine blood

1:02:59 > 1:03:01on the walls, bodies on the floor.

1:03:01 > 1:03:04No one is going to be able to walk through that building.

1:03:04 > 1:03:10No one.

1:03:10 > 1:03:12All 17 victims have now been identified.

1:03:12 > 1:03:14Among them talented students, star athletes and Aaron Feis,

1:03:14 > 1:03:16a beloved football coach and security guard.

1:03:16 > 1:03:18He has been called a hero for shielding children

1:03:18 > 1:03:26from the gunman's bullets.

1:03:26 > 1:03:28Nikolas Cruz appeared in court briefly on 17 charges

1:03:28 > 1:03:29of premeditated murder.

1:03:29 > 1:03:32His lawyer said he was sad and remorseful and described him

1:03:32 > 1:03:34as a broken human being.

1:03:34 > 1:03:36The sheriff's office said he confessed to opening fire

1:03:36 > 1:03:40on his former school.

1:03:40 > 1:03:43He told authorities he bought a drink at Subway and stopped

1:03:43 > 1:03:47at McDonald's after the rampage.

1:03:47 > 1:03:50On social media, Cruz often posed with guns and in one post he wrote

1:03:50 > 1:03:52he would be a professional school shooter.

1:03:52 > 1:04:00Those who knew him were troubled by his behaviour.

1:04:01 > 1:04:05He's someone who used racial slurs, who was just awful to other people

1:04:05 > 1:04:08and I'm sure he was bullied himself by some but he was the type

1:04:08 > 1:04:10of person where people were scared to

1:04:10 > 1:04:13bully him because they knew something could happen.

1:04:13 > 1:04:17They just didn't think this would happen.

1:04:17 > 1:04:20These terrifying scenes of students completely helpless and trembling

1:04:20 > 1:04:21with fear have shaken the nation

1:04:21 > 1:04:24and they have reignited the debate on gun control.

1:04:24 > 1:04:27People here are in a state of shock, that someone from their own

1:04:27 > 1:04:29community could be capable of such killing,

1:04:29 > 1:04:32and that their city now joins the long list of America's

1:04:32 > 1:04:40school shooting tragedies.

1:04:45 > 1:04:48Earlier on BBC Breakfast, we spoke to Ivy Schamis,

1:04:48 > 1:04:51who is a teacher at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School

1:04:51 > 1:04:53and witnessed the attack.

1:04:53 > 1:04:57She was teaching when the gunman tried to force his way into her

1:04:57 > 1:04:59classroom using his rifle.

1:04:59 > 1:05:05There was a lot of students and so we just tried to go behind my desk,

1:05:05 > 1:05:10behind the file cabinet, behind the laptop cart. There's a lot of stuff

1:05:10 > 1:05:15in the classroom so they tried to find cover. It was instantaneous but

1:05:15 > 1:05:21within seconds the student came to my door and he shot out the whole

1:05:21 > 1:05:27glass panel inside the door, hitting students while he did that. We

1:05:27 > 1:05:32didn't know it at the time but he hit several students and they were

1:05:32 > 1:05:37injured, and I didn't realise at that moment, two female and a male

1:05:37 > 1:05:41student, who were seniors, and ready to go to college soon, they were

1:05:41 > 1:05:47killed.

1:05:47 > 1:05:52Ivy Schamis there, a teacher, and two of the students in her class

1:05:52 > 1:06:02were killed.

1:06:03 > 1:06:05The former Oxfam director, accused of hiring prostitutes

1:06:05 > 1:06:08while working in Haiti and Chad, has denied paying for sex but said

1:06:08 > 1:06:10he had made some mistakes.

1:06:10 > 1:06:12In an open letter, Roland Van Hauwermeiren

1:06:12 > 1:06:13admitted he'd had an intimate relationship

1:06:13 > 1:06:16with a woman in Haiti, but said she was not a prostiture.

1:06:16 > 1:06:19The international head of the charity, Winnie Byanyima

1:06:19 > 1:06:21has invited anyone who's been abused by Oxfam

1:06:21 > 1:06:23staff to tell their story and obtain justice.

1:06:23 > 1:06:25Our diplomatic correspondent, James Landale, has been

1:06:25 > 1:06:26speaking to her.

1:06:26 > 1:06:29The earthquake that struck in 2010 reduced much of Haiti to rubble.

1:06:29 > 1:06:31But the after-shocks are still being felt by Oxfam.

1:06:31 > 1:06:34In her native Ugandan, Oxfam's global head said sorry

1:06:34 > 1:06:37for the sexual exploitation carried out by some of her staff in Haiti,

1:06:37 > 1:06:45something she told me she only found out about last week.

1:06:48 > 1:06:52I'm inviting anyone who has been a victim of abuse to come forward,

1:06:52 > 1:06:55we're going to do justice, we'll atone for the past.

1:06:55 > 1:06:58Right now thousands and thousands of Oxfam staff doing the right thing

1:06:58 > 1:07:01in the most dangerous places in the world.

1:07:01 > 1:07:04She promised a new independent commission to investigate Oxfam's

1:07:04 > 1:07:06handling of past cases, tougher new checks on staff

1:07:06 > 1:07:08work references and more cash for safeguarding vulnerable people.

1:07:08 > 1:07:12Changes that might in the future stop Oxfam employing men like Roland

1:07:12 > 1:07:14van Hauwermeiren, its former director in Haiti, who has denied

1:07:14 > 1:07:20paying for sex.

1:07:20 > 1:07:22TRANSLATION:Some unprofessional journalists are implying that Oxfam

1:07:22 > 1:07:24organises sex orgies using money from donations,

1:07:24 > 1:07:32which is absolutely untrue.

1:07:35 > 1:07:39What is true is that Oxfam now faces the huge task of trying to rebuild

1:07:39 > 1:07:40public confidence.

1:07:40 > 1:07:43Winnie Byanyima said more Oxfam staff could be sacked if they're

1:07:43 > 1:07:45found to have mishandled past cases, but...

1:07:45 > 1:07:46We have almost 10,000 staff around

1:07:46 > 1:07:54the world working in more than 90 countries.

1:08:00 > 1:08:03The majority of those are doing the right thing.

1:08:03 > 1:08:06You cannot give that guarantee that there are no sexual predators

1:08:06 > 1:08:07working for your organisation?

1:08:07 > 1:08:10How would I be able to guarantee that there is no one

1:08:10 > 1:08:12who is going to offend?

1:08:12 > 1:08:15What I can guarantee is that we will build a new culture

1:08:15 > 1:08:19that doesn't tolerate that behaviour.

1:08:19 > 1:08:22What went on in Haiti has cost Oxfam donations,

1:08:22 > 1:08:26public trust and celebrity ambassadors.

1:08:26 > 1:08:30Miss Byanyima said the organisation was

1:08:30 > 1:08:33demoralising but she insisted it would survive.

1:08:33 > 1:08:35What doesn't kill it, she said, will make it stronger.

1:08:35 > 1:08:37James Landale, BBC News.

1:08:37 > 1:08:40The Football Association is to review thousands of files

1:08:40 > 1:08:43to find out how much was known about the abuse carried out

1:08:43 > 1:08:46by former youth coach Barry Bennell as part of its internal review.

1:08:46 > 1:08:49Yesterday he was found guilty of another seven counts

1:08:49 > 1:08:51of sexually abusing boys, meaning he's now been convicted

1:08:51 > 1:08:54of a total of 43 offences between 1979 and 1990.

1:08:59 > 1:09:02Earlier we spoke to one of his victims, David Lean,

1:09:02 > 1:09:05who gave us his reaction to the verdict.

1:09:07 > 1:09:13It's great to obviously finally see justice. I don't really feel I got

1:09:13 > 1:09:18justice in 2015, he just got a two-year sentence, served 12 months.

1:09:18 > 1:09:23I always knew there was going to be many more, told everybody there was

1:09:23 > 1:09:29many more, and finally it's been shown there's been many more.

1:09:29 > 1:09:33Britain's bus network has shrunk to levels last seen in the late

1:09:33 > 1:09:351980s, that's according to a BBC investigation.

1:09:35 > 1:09:37Rising car use and cuts to public funding are being blamed

1:09:37 > 1:09:40for a loss of 134 million miles of coverage over

1:09:40 > 1:09:41the past decade alone.

1:09:41 > 1:09:45The Campaign for Better Transport says the scale of the miles lost

1:09:45 > 1:09:49is a sign that buses are on course to be cut to the same extent

1:09:49 > 1:09:50railways were in the 1960s.

1:09:50 > 1:09:52The Hollywood actress Jennifer Aniston has announced

1:09:52 > 1:09:55she is to seperate from her husband Justin Theroux after two

1:09:55 > 1:09:56years of marriage.

1:09:56 > 1:09:59The pair, who were married in a secret ceremony in Los Angeles

1:09:59 > 1:10:02in 2015, reportedly met on the set of comedy film Wanderlust.

1:10:02 > 1:10:06They gave no reason for the split but said it was a mutual decision

1:10:06 > 1:10:14which had been lovingly made at the end of last year.

1:10:17 > 1:10:24So, Mike, we have one, we were hoping for another one, I'm talking

1:10:24 > 1:10:28medals.At the Winter Olympics.But we didn't get one?Isn't quite over

1:10:28 > 1:10:32for Andrew Musgrave in the cross-country, last time I looked,

1:10:32 > 1:10:3518th, out of the medals at the moment but we should celebrate the

1:10:35 > 1:10:41first medal for Great Britain in the Winter Games, Dom Parsons, 30,

1:10:41 > 1:10:45trained at Bath, started as a runner before switching to skeleton and an

1:10:45 > 1:10:51historic moment for British sliding. Day seven has already proved a

1:10:51 > 1:10:55magnificent one for Team GB, as Ben Croucher now reports.

1:10:55 > 1:10:56ANNOUNCER:Dom Parsons!

1:10:56 > 1:10:57At last!

1:10:57 > 1:10:59Six days of medal-less Olympics for Great Britain,

1:10:59 > 1:11:01on the seventh that demon was laid to rest.

1:11:01 > 1:11:04Dom Parsons is doing a PhD in mechanical engineering,

1:11:04 > 1:11:07a study of calm before the most important two runs of his life.

1:11:07 > 1:11:10Lying in fourth, Parsons got his angles just right,

1:11:10 > 1:11:11sliding down the track but crucially

1:11:11 > 1:11:19up the standings after his first run.

1:11:22 > 1:11:25All he had to do now was to finish it off.

1:11:25 > 1:11:28If he beat the Russian athlete behind him he'd be

1:11:28 > 1:11:30guaranteed a medal, a first for a British man

1:11:30 > 1:11:32in the sport since 1948.

1:11:32 > 1:11:34COMMENTATOR:He's in front marginally of Tregubov.

1:11:34 > 1:11:36But it's uphill for the line now.

1:11:36 > 1:11:38Off bend 16, is it to be? No!

1:11:38 > 1:11:38Oh, no!

1:11:38 > 1:11:41He misses out by two hundredths of a second.

1:11:41 > 1:11:44So was that wait for a medal going to continue?

1:11:44 > 1:11:47Parsons didn't have too long to find out, needing a slipup

1:11:47 > 1:11:48from Latvia's Martins Dukurs.

1:11:48 > 1:11:48Yes! Behind Parsons.

1:11:48 > 1:11:50Dom Parsons unbelievably has his medal

1:11:50 > 1:11:58for Great Britain! Yes, Dom!

1:11:59 > 1:12:04I thought I'd lost it and after that second run,

1:12:04 > 1:12:06well, fourth run, I thought it had gone away.

1:12:06 > 1:12:09Yeah, I looked up at the time, made a couple

1:12:09 > 1:12:11too many mistakes on that run.

1:12:11 > 1:12:13But Martins made more mistakes and he's the last

1:12:13 > 1:12:15person I thought would make those mistakes.

1:12:15 > 1:12:19Parsons' teammates were quick to congratulate him as well.

1:12:19 > 1:12:21Speedskater Elise Christie, having suffered her own medal

1:12:21 > 1:12:24agony, was one of the first to express her delight.

1:12:24 > 1:12:27Could this now be a catalyst for the rest of Team GB

1:12:27 > 1:12:28and men's skeleton?

1:12:28 > 1:12:31Maybe Dom doing that, all the new team, the guys,

1:12:31 > 1:12:32the development squad

1:12:32 > 1:12:35behind him have proven it isn't impossible and the girls have got

1:12:35 > 1:12:38the medals and now the guys have started it with Dom,

1:12:38 > 1:12:39and let's see

1:12:39 > 1:12:45what the future brings more British spell skeleton.

1:12:45 > 1:12:48Now Parsons has got Britain finally up and running,

1:12:48 > 1:12:50the wait for another medal might not be too long,

1:12:50 > 1:12:52the women could add to it tomorrow.

1:12:52 > 1:12:58Ben Croucher, BBC News.

1:12:58 > 1:13:01Congratulations to Dom Parsons and the first heats for the women, Laura

1:13:01 > 1:13:08Dees, Lizzy Yarnold later today, and we will have a special interview

1:13:08 > 1:13:13with Lizzy Yarnold later in the programme.Thanks, Mike.

1:13:13 > 1:13:17Matt is going to have the weather outside Blenheim Palace this

1:13:17 > 1:13:17morning.

1:13:17 > 1:13:20Let's return now to our top story and the murder of 17 people

1:13:20 > 1:13:23in the deadliest US school shooting since 2012.

1:13:23 > 1:13:25Teachers and pupils ran for cover as 19-year-old

1:13:25 > 1:13:28Nikolas Cruz began his attack.

1:13:28 > 1:13:35We're going to talk in a moment to a commentator for the National Rifle

1:13:35 > 1:13:40Association, Antonia Okafor.

1:13:40 > 1:13:43Also joining us is Greg Pittman, a teacher at the Marjory Stoneman

1:13:43 > 1:13:45Douglas High School where the attack took place.

1:13:45 > 1:13:49Greg, thank you for talking to us on BBC Breakfast this morning, this

1:13:49 > 1:13:53can't be easy for you. I should first of all ask, how are you?I'm

1:13:53 > 1:14:04doing OK. Some bad moments with students... INAUDIBLE... Some have

1:14:04 > 1:14:11deceased and are injured.Greg, we are just... I apologise profusely,

1:14:11 > 1:14:16we having a few technical problems, your sound is cutting in and out. We

1:14:16 > 1:14:20will try to sort that out, talk to our next guest and come back to you

1:14:20 > 1:14:25and talk to you in a moment.Let's talk to Antonia Okafor, a member of

1:14:25 > 1:14:30the National Rifle Association. Good morning, Antonia. Thanks for your

1:14:30 > 1:14:35time. What are your thoughts this morning? We should says straightaway

1:14:35 > 1:14:39that you are a gun owner yourself and someone who believes absolutely

1:14:39 > 1:14:47in the right to bear arms, what are your thoughts this morning?Thanks

1:14:47 > 1:14:52for having me on. My condolences to those who are family and friends of

1:14:52 > 1:15:00the victims. It's a time of right now in America and the world and

1:15:00 > 1:15:04unfortunately these things keep happening -- time of mourning. Part

1:15:04 > 1:15:08of that is that we have to have a substantial conversation about what

1:15:08 > 1:15:17it looks like as an owners -- gun owners and what reform looks like.

1:15:17 > 1:15:22People are talking about gun control right now, but we need to empower

1:15:22 > 1:15:28those who are law-abiding and who would be able to stop or at least

1:15:28 > 1:15:33stop those people who are criminals from engaging with those who are the

1:15:33 > 1:15:37most vulnerable, and that's our children and schools.You said

1:15:37 > 1:15:42people are talking about gun control right now but many people are

1:15:42 > 1:15:46noticing that Donald Trump made no reference to even thinking about the

1:15:46 > 1:15:50issue of gun control in his comments about what happened at the high

1:15:50 > 1:15:56school in Florida.I would disagree. I think what people think about gun

1:15:56 > 1:16:02control unfortunately is that we just look at this object and we

1:16:02 > 1:16:09think that is a solution, takeaway the gun. But we don't talk about who

1:16:09 > 1:16:15is behind that firearm and I think that's what Donald Trump is doing.

1:16:15 > 1:16:23He is making the

1:16:23 > 1:16:27He is making the conversation about whether he had an automatic rifle or

1:16:27 > 1:16:35not, really making it a about whether this should have -- whether

1:16:35 > 1:16:40he should have had this type of gun, with mental health issues. Because

1:16:40 > 1:16:44many politicians bring back to what we have been talking about for

1:16:44 > 1:16:48years, which is obviously not working.Talking about Nikolas Cruz

1:16:48 > 1:16:52for a moment and obviously there are various stories emerging about him.

1:16:52 > 1:16:56We don't yet know the full details, that it is suggested that he had

1:16:56 > 1:17:02treatment for depression. We understand he put a YouTube post

1:17:02 > 1:17:08outlast year saying he would be a professional school shooter, but

1:17:08 > 1:17:14this was a 19-year-old who was in possession of an AR-15 rifle and had

1:17:14 > 1:17:19countless magazines. A lot of people would be saying if he is not the

1:17:19 > 1:17:23kind of person who should not have the right to have an automatic

1:17:23 > 1:17:30weapon, then who?Absolutely. I think that's the reason why

1:17:30 > 1:17:35President Trump brought up the mental health illness aspect of it,

1:17:35 > 1:17:41because this is an aspect of that, a real central part of the

1:17:41 > 1:17:45conversation that we need to have. People are talking about the AR-15.

1:17:45 > 1:17:49I've been on this programme and spoke about how I own an AR-15, a

1:17:49 > 1:17:57semiautomatic rifle, but we also spoke about the church in Texas

1:17:57 > 1:18:03where they had someone who was an NRA firearm constructor who was able

1:18:03 > 1:18:08to be a mass shooter with an AR-15. Can I just make a couple of points

1:18:08 > 1:18:14and let you address these. Some people and possibly some of the

1:18:14 > 1:18:18people who are members of the NRA say one of the solutions is more

1:18:18 > 1:18:22weaponry in schools and we heard this morning from one of the

1:18:22 > 1:18:28teachers in the school who lost within our own classroom to pupils

1:18:28 > 1:18:33saying that there is an armed police officer on campus, but it didn't

1:18:33 > 1:18:37stop this and it's partly because you have a young man with an

1:18:37 > 1:18:44automatic weapon who can cause so much damage so quickly.Right.

1:18:44 > 1:18:48Again, not automatic, a semiautomatic, which means one

1:18:48 > 1:18:53trigger pool, which is the same as handguns, just that has more

1:18:53 > 1:19:00capacity, more magazine capacity. So again it is that one armed guard was

1:19:00 > 1:19:05not able to get to that person, the shooter, in time. So what a lot of

1:19:05 > 1:19:12people are talking about now, and I used to be on the fence about this,

1:19:12 > 1:19:17but people are adamant that if you are off campus and you are able to

1:19:17 > 1:19:22do so, you pass the cheques you need to in order to carry a gun, then if

1:19:22 > 1:19:24we think these teachers and these administrators and the security

1:19:24 > 1:19:30guards... We put our trust in them to defend our children, why aren't

1:19:30 > 1:19:35we allowing them and giving them the tools that they need to protect them

1:19:35 > 1:19:40in situations like this?Thank you very much for your time this

1:19:40 > 1:19:46morning. That's Antonia Okafor, a member of the NRA.

1:19:46 > 1:19:52We can talk again now to Gregory Pittman. Thank you very much for

1:19:52 > 1:19:56your patience. I wonder if you were able to hear what Antonia was

1:19:56 > 1:20:04saying?She is completely wrong. A survey of the majority of the people

1:20:04 > 1:20:08and majority of teachers showed additional firearms is not the

1:20:08 > 1:20:17solution. INAUDIBLE... My associated would be alive, not dead. A good

1:20:17 > 1:20:22friend of mine had to offer students killed. They were able to shoot

1:20:22 > 1:20:28through the wall and that through a matter of seconds. All of these

1:20:28 > 1:20:32people were killed in a couple of minutes. I was at the school, I know

1:20:32 > 1:20:37what the feeling is, the feeling in the US is not more guns. These

1:20:37 > 1:20:41automatic assault weapons, we are determined, those of us who have

1:20:41 > 1:20:45been affected, if these words on campuses and schools we wouldn't

1:20:45 > 1:20:49have any of these 18 mass shootings that we had in the US this year and

1:20:49 > 1:20:54most of them were a result of these weapons such as this, being able to

1:20:54 > 1:20:58shoot hundreds of bullets in a matter of minutes. More weapons is

1:20:58 > 1:21:02not the solution and we are strongly against that and if you do a survey

1:21:02 > 1:21:06and the checkout with the American people, those would be surveyed and

1:21:06 > 1:21:13they would say no and use other words like "hell, no". They would

1:21:13 > 1:21:18say that would only add to the problem.We spoke earlier to your

1:21:18 > 1:21:23colleague

1:21:23 > 1:21:26colleague Ivy, who told us what she experienced. You have made clear it

1:21:26 > 1:21:33you don't want to be armed as teachers.We made the same point, if

1:21:33 > 1:21:40you listen to her entire interview earlier.Of course.What she also

1:21:40 > 1:21:45spoke to us about is what happened at the school, what she saw and what

1:21:45 > 1:21:50she experienced. You are still grieving, you are still very

1:21:50 > 1:21:54traumatised, we understand that. What many of our viewers would love

1:21:54 > 1:22:00to understand what you saw, what was happening and how you all had to

1:22:00 > 1:22:01deal with this.

1:22:05 > 1:22:12On Wednesday in the morning we practice fire alarms every month and

1:22:12 > 1:22:17practice drills for bombings. We have a specific routine for each

1:22:17 > 1:22:22that we do. We assumed in the afternoon at 2:20pm it was a fire

1:22:22 > 1:22:27alarm. We didn't think it was practice because we would get out in

1:22:27 > 1:22:3120 minutes at the normal time to practise, we didn't know whether it

1:22:31 > 1:22:37was accidental, they learned something, or maybe it was real. Do

1:22:37 > 1:22:41immediately moved our kids out. I told them we had to go. So we moved

1:22:41 > 1:22:45out to where we would go to, where my students were supposed to go, and

1:22:45 > 1:22:49as we were going out another teacher came up and told me that he was

1:22:49 > 1:22:53close to the area where we think it took lace and he heard the shooting,

1:22:53 > 1:22:59he could hear shots. Students started receiving video from other

1:22:59 > 1:23:03students in the brooms, letting them know that it was a shooting.

1:23:03 > 1:23:06Administration came on and we needed to move the students away further,

1:23:06 > 1:23:12so we started moving everyone further away. You could see the

1:23:12 > 1:23:16panic and fear in the faces of the students and we were trying to

1:23:16 > 1:23:20maintain calm and try to move everybody safely away. Students were

1:23:20 > 1:23:25trying to climb fences. We were yelling and shouting. Later that

1:23:25 > 1:23:31evening student came up to me and said he didn't know my name, but he

1:23:31 > 1:23:35said I was one of the students trying to climb the fence and you

1:23:35 > 1:23:39told me to get down and I'm glad you did and I'm sorry that we were

1:23:39 > 1:23:43trying to climb the fence, but we were afraid. I said, I know, that's

1:23:43 > 1:23:47why we were trying to redirect you. But we were very concerned. We knew

1:23:47 > 1:23:51something very bad was happening and it was our concern to move the

1:23:51 > 1:24:01students out, you know, I have good moments and bad moments in

1:24:01 > 1:24:04everything. I know the three adults that were killed. I know two of them

1:24:04 > 1:24:09very well. One of them has only just recently started teaching at our

1:24:09 > 1:24:14school. But we had practised and practised. That went through fine.

1:24:14 > 1:24:18What I will say is we need more money and more funding for

1:24:18 > 1:24:23additional security and we do need more money in the mental health

1:24:23 > 1:24:27area. A couple of areas we need help. But as far as our drills and

1:24:27 > 1:24:30what we needed to do, that went perfectly. Unfortunately, the one

1:24:30 > 1:24:39thing is that when we do a code red, initially when the first alarm went

1:24:39 > 1:24:45out it was a fire drill and we did not hear code red. That came on

1:24:45 > 1:24:48shortly after but we were already out in a field where we couldn't

1:24:48 > 1:24:53hear. Seamus and some of the teachers did here and they did what

1:24:53 > 1:24:56they were supposed to do. Unfortunately the shooter was able

1:24:56 > 1:24:59to shoot through the doors and people were shot in the brooms or in

1:24:59 > 1:25:03the hallways.Thank you so much for talking to us and persevering with

1:25:03 > 1:25:09the technical issues. Really good to get your view and we wish you, your

1:25:09 > 1:25:15colleagues and of course the students well.Thank you very much

1:25:15 > 1:25:20for letting me tell you what happened.Apologies for the

1:25:20 > 1:25:24technical problems.

1:25:24 > 1:25:27Matt's out in Oxfordshire this morning at one of UNESCO's

1:25:27 > 1:25:30World Heritage Sites.

1:25:30 > 1:25:36What is that beautiful building? Lenin palace, looking gorgeous.It

1:25:36 > 1:25:41certainly is. Absolutely stunning architecture and a lovely place to

1:25:41 > 1:25:46start my Friday morning. The style of this is English baroque, but it's

1:25:46 > 1:25:49not just about the building, it's also about the wonderful parkland

1:25:49 > 1:25:56surroundings. That is the queen pool, named for Elisabeth first. You

1:25:56 > 1:26:02will notice on the grass around it a frost covering at the moment. It is

1:26:02 > 1:26:04a chilly start.

1:26:04 > 1:26:06frost covering at the moment. It is a chilly start. It is getting close

1:26:06 > 1:26:10to -2 and it's a frosty start for many. But have a look at the

1:26:10 > 1:26:15forecast. A stunning start, as it is for many. Most of us having a fine

1:26:15 > 1:26:20winter day, but we will see more wintry showers towards the north and

1:26:20 > 1:26:25west. A few showers already across parts of north and west Scotland,

1:26:25 > 1:26:29falling as rain, hail, sleet and snow. They may come with under later

1:26:29 > 1:26:33and we may see rain spreading into the west of Northern Ireland. Most

1:26:33 > 1:26:37of the UK will stay dry and even into the afternoon many eastern area

1:26:37 > 1:26:41stays sunny. Inner West we have more cloud putting in. That bring in high

1:26:41 > 1:26:46cloud, hazy sunshine and that hazy sunshine extends into Northern

1:26:46 > 1:26:51Ireland. Maybe a bit of rain. Showers continuing in the north and

1:26:51 > 1:26:57west of Scotland. Not as many as the past few days. Most places stay dry.

1:26:57 > 1:27:02Wheezy and the north of Scotland. Lighter winds than we've seen and it

1:27:02 > 1:27:07will feel milder. Especially with the strengthening sun. Temperatures

1:27:07 > 1:27:15could be 11, 12 degrees, around six degrees in parts of Scotland and

1:27:15 > 1:27:22Northern Ireland. Sam Hill smell and rain spreading across overnight. --

1:27:22 > 1:27:26Summer Hill snow. Either side of it clear skies overnight and the chance

1:27:26 > 1:27:30of some frost. Not as much as the night just gone. On Saturday there

1:27:30 > 1:27:35will be more cloud, but for many a dry day. Wet weather in parts of

1:27:35 > 1:27:40northern England, with snow in the Pennines. That will edge towards the

1:27:40 > 1:27:47Midlands, but most of the rain will this allowed. Cloudy further south

1:27:47 > 1:27:51and east. Sunny spells and a couple of showers to the northern half of

1:27:51 > 1:27:56the UK. Temperature is still into double figures in the south. Maybe

1:27:56 > 1:28:00lifting a little more further north as well. Into Sunday we should just

1:28:00 > 1:28:05about avoid a frost because we have more cloud. The breeze picks up into

1:28:05 > 1:28:10Sunday. Sunday for many will be dry, especially in the east, but it turns

1:28:10 > 1:28:16cloudy from the west, with rain and drizzle. Murky over the hills, but

1:28:16 > 1:28:20temperatures still above where they should be. Instead of having

1:28:20 > 1:28:24temperatures below average for the time of year, they are little bit

1:28:24 > 1:28:29above. Once you get sunshine this weekend, it does mean it may feel

1:28:29 > 1:28:35like spring is around the corner. But don't get too complacent.

1:28:35 > 1:28:35It

1:28:35 > 1:28:37But don't get too complacent. It could get colder again next week.

1:28:37 > 1:28:40Wonderful surroundings. Thank you very much.

1:28:40 > 1:32:00Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are.

1:32:00 > 1:32:01of light rain and drizzle later.

1:32:01 > 1:32:09Have a nice day.

1:32:12 > 1:32:14Welcome back, you're watching Breakfast with Charlie Stayt

1:32:14 > 1:32:15and Naga Munchetty.

1:32:15 > 1:32:18Here's a summary of the main stories from BBC News:

1:32:18 > 1:32:20The FBI is investigating how it handled

1:32:20 > 1:32:21a warning about the teenager accused

1:32:21 > 1:32:23of carrying out Wednesday's school shooting in Florida,

1:32:23 > 1:32:31which left 17 dead.

1:32:31 > 1:32:34Nikolas Cruz, 19, reportedly posted a YouTube comment claiming

1:32:34 > 1:32:35he would be a professional school shooter.

1:32:35 > 1:32:40Tributes were paid to his victims with vigils through the night.

1:32:40 > 1:32:42The former Oxfam director accused of hiring prostitutes

1:32:42 > 1:32:46while working in Haiti and Chad has denied paying for sex but said

1:32:46 > 1:32:47he had made some mistakes.

1:32:47 > 1:32:49In an open letter, he admitted he'd had

1:32:49 > 1:32:50an intimate relationship

1:32:50 > 1:32:53with a woman in Haiti, but said she was not a prostiture.

1:32:53 > 1:32:55The international head of the charity

1:32:55 > 1:32:57has invited anyone who's been abused by Oxfam

1:32:57 > 1:33:04staff to tell their story and obtain justice.

1:33:04 > 1:33:07The Football Association is to review thousands of files

1:33:07 > 1:33:10to find out how much was known about the abuse carried out

1:33:10 > 1:33:13by former youth coach Barry Bennell as part of its internal review.

1:33:13 > 1:33:16Yesterday he was found guilty of another seven counts

1:33:16 > 1:33:18of sexually abusing boys, meaning he's now been convicted

1:33:18 > 1:33:26of a total of 43 offences between 1979 and 1990.

1:33:28 > 1:33:30He will be sentenced on Monday.

1:33:30 > 1:33:32A BBC investigation has revealed a significant difference

1:33:32 > 1:33:35between the highest earning male and female consultants working

1:33:35 > 1:33:36for the NHS in England.

1:33:36 > 1:33:37Figures show that on average full-time men

1:33:37 > 1:33:38Figures show that on average full-time men

1:33:38 > 1:33:39owned £14,000 a year more

1:33:39 > 1:33:42than their female counterparts when including bonuses and overtime.

1:33:42 > 1:33:44Only 5% of women among the top 100 owners.

1:33:44 > 1:33:47The Department of Health said it's committed to ensuring

1:33:47 > 1:33:50doctors are awarded fairly equally regardless of gender.

1:33:50 > 1:33:52The Hollywood actress Jennifer Aniston has announced

1:33:52 > 1:33:55she is to separate from her husband Justin Theroux after two

1:33:55 > 1:33:55years of marriage.

1:33:55 > 1:33:59The pair, who were married in a secret ceremony in Los Angeles

1:33:59 > 1:34:02in 2015, reportedly met on the set of comedy film Wanderlust.

1:34:02 > 1:34:05They gave no reason for the split but said it was a mutual decision

1:34:05 > 1:34:13which had been "lovingly made" at the end of last year.

1:34:16 > 1:34:23Those are the main stories. Mike has got the sport and we have got a

1:34:23 > 1:34:28bronze medals.Great Britain are on the board thanks to Dom Parsons in

1:34:28 > 1:34:36the skeleton. It will have the biggest impact on his life because

1:34:36 > 1:34:40of the finest margins when it comes down to those tiny split seconds in

1:34:40 > 1:34:43the skeleton, if everyone is excited here I wonder what the reaction is

1:34:43 > 1:34:51like in Pyeongchang.

1:34:51 > 1:34:54Katherine Downes is there.

1:34:54 > 1:34:58What's the reaction?It will have lifted the team because there's been

1:34:58 > 1:35:02disappointments in the opening few days, Elise Christie in the 500

1:35:02 > 1:35:05metres shock track, she will go again and hopefully this will take

1:35:05 > 1:35:09the pressure of Majka because everyone said she would deliver the

1:35:09 > 1:35:13medals four Team GB -- short track. I don't think Dom Parsons would be

1:35:13 > 1:35:18too upset if I said this was an unexpected medal. He was third

1:35:18 > 1:35:21overnight, he worked himself over the first to heats, then a terrible

1:35:21 > 1:35:26night's sleep I'm sure he had and after the third heat he was still

1:35:26 > 1:35:31holding onto the third position but he had to stay there in the final

1:35:31 > 1:35:37run as well. Tregubov from the Olympic Athletes from Russia jumped

1:35:37 > 1:35:41up into the silver position after a brilliant run from him, that pushed

1:35:41 > 1:35:45Dom Parsons down but a clean run from him kept him in that third

1:35:45 > 1:35:52bronze medal position with two left to go. At that point Dom Parsons

1:35:52 > 1:35:55thought he had blown the medal because the two above him were

1:35:55 > 1:36:00expected to get the silver and gold. An agonising wait for Dom Parsons

1:36:00 > 1:36:05with the two-time silver-medallist Martins Dukurs, who you would expect

1:36:05 > 1:36:09true to form to come down the track nice and clean and take the silver

1:36:09 > 1:36:15medal, but I'm afraid a mistake from Dukurs meant Dom Parsons held onto

1:36:15 > 1:36:19the bronze medal so cute enormous celebrations in the Team GB camp and

1:36:19 > 1:36:26that is Great Britain's burst skeleton medal in 70 years.

1:36:27 > 1:36:30skeleton medal in 70 years. The hope is that will open the floodgates now

1:36:30 > 1:36:36four Team GB and more medals to come and the big hope today was Andrew

1:36:36 > 1:36:40Musgrave in the 15 kilometre cross-country skiing. He came

1:36:40 > 1:36:43seventh in the ski Afful on last weekend and this was his favourite

1:36:43 > 1:36:48event but I'm afraid it didn't go quite the way Andrew Musgrave hoped

1:36:48 > 1:36:54and he came over the line in 28. No second medal for Team GB so far at

1:36:54 > 1:37:01these dams, the big hope was an Andrew Musgrave, but Dom Parsons got

1:37:01 > 1:37:06third and I will be speaking to him in about an hour -- Games.Great

1:37:06 > 1:37:10news, we will look forward to joining you for that. At the end of

1:37:10 > 1:37:19the Andrew Musgrave commentary, four years ago he said he skied like a

1:37:19 > 1:37:23tranquillised badger, at the end of the commentary they said the badger

1:37:23 > 1:37:27is still tranquillised.A bit harsh. He said it himself, though. He will

1:37:27 > 1:37:34go again one more event, hopefully.

1:37:34 > 1:37:39Today, Lizzy Yarnold will start her quest

1:37:39 > 1:37:42to become the first Briton ever to retain a Winter Olympic title.

1:37:42 > 1:37:45She's been building up to this all winter and I went

1:37:45 > 1:37:52to meet her during a World Cup event in Germany.

1:37:52 > 1:37:56Back on top of the mountain where Lizzy Yarnold has spent the winter

1:37:56 > 1:38:01preparing for her shot at Olympic history. Hi, Lizzie, how are you?

1:38:01 > 1:38:06Over a cup of tea in her hotel apartment I met the sled that now

1:38:06 > 1:38:11carries her dreams. Feel how heavy that is, my goodness! I suppose you

1:38:11 > 1:38:15just develop the strength.You have a knack for how to pick it up.As

1:38:15 > 1:38:18the moment arrives she's actually been thinking about since winning

1:38:18 > 1:38:23gold in Sochi four years ago.It's this big hairy goal I had as soon as

1:38:23 > 1:38:27I finished in Sochi that I would absolutely love to be selected for

1:38:27 > 1:38:32another Olympic Games, but to be the first British Winter Olympian to

1:38:32 > 1:38:36retain my title would be making history.For Lizzy Yarnold and the

1:38:36 > 1:38:39other athletes here it's just about that minute when they throw

1:38:39 > 1:38:44themselves down the tunnel of ice and 90 mph, but before the Winter

1:38:44 > 1:38:49Olympics they've been on the road for 16 weeks away from home putting

1:38:49 > 1:38:53up with the most hostile and coldest conditions you can imagine just

1:38:53 > 1:38:57trying to keep warm for hours on end before it's finally their turn.

1:38:57 > 1:39:00It's one reason Lizzy decided to take a break, whole year away from

1:39:00 > 1:39:05the sport, even if it was then a shock when she returned.I was doing

1:39:05 > 1:39:08cycling and running and all these different sports thinking I was

1:39:08 > 1:39:12physically fit and then getting back on a sled was really overwhelming.

1:39:12 > 1:39:17The sensation of your body rattling the whole way down, you know, when I

1:39:17 > 1:39:21visualised practice being back on the sled, I didn't envisage the

1:39:21 > 1:39:25bums.I got a taste of the pain your body goes through when I went down

1:39:25 > 1:39:29the track in Winterberg in Germany in the relative comfort of a

1:39:29 > 1:39:33bobsled. In a skeleton you're much more exposed with your face inches

1:39:33 > 1:39:37away from the eyes.You go down the track with your head completely

1:39:37 > 1:39:42looking forward and your know what's going on but as ahead, G four picks

1:39:42 > 1:39:46up and you are going at five G forces so your head comes down and

1:39:46 > 1:39:50is bumping on the ice, so you have to learn to pick up different shades

1:39:50 > 1:39:54of white. It's a good fun game of trying to piece everything together

1:39:54 > 1:39:58down the track. Fun is one word for it, but actually

1:39:58 > 1:40:02having fun with her mates was how it started for Lizzy on a mattress in a

1:40:02 > 1:40:08school playing field.Whenever it snowed we would, like, had gap

1:40:08 > 1:40:11students, we would take their mattresses. I was doing it from a

1:40:11 > 1:40:18really early age.On the mattresses? Yeah, on the mattresses, then a

1:40:18 > 1:40:22mattress got broken and we got banned. I think the past 18 months

1:40:22 > 1:40:25has been very up and down but I really wouldn't want it anywhere the

1:40:25 > 1:40:30way, I really wanted to come back and go into Pyeongchang a lot more

1:40:30 > 1:40:34under my own steam and I think I'm really looking forward to us all

1:40:34 > 1:40:38kind of trying to do it again.

1:40:38 > 1:40:43Her campaign begins on the BBC, live coverage at 11:20am.We will look

1:40:43 > 1:40:48forward to it. Mike, thank you.Matt will have the weather for us

1:40:48 > 1:40:51shortly.

1:40:51 > 1:40:54Let's go back to one of our main stories this morning.

1:40:54 > 1:40:56For 25 years, Barry Bennell lived a double life.

1:40:56 > 1:40:59Publicly lauded as one of English football's best talent

1:40:59 > 1:41:02spotters, but in private he carried out a campaign of sexual abuse

1:41:02 > 1:41:03against young boys.

1:41:03 > 1:41:06He's been convicted of a total of 43 charges relating

1:41:06 > 1:41:09to assaults carried out between 1979 and 1990.

1:41:09 > 1:41:15One of his victims was Steve Walters, who joins us now.

1:41:15 > 1:41:20Thank you very much, Steve, for talking to us this morning on BBC

1:41:20 > 1:41:23Breakfast. I understand you were at the court yesterday when the

1:41:23 > 1:41:26verdicts were delivered, can you tell us how you felt hearing that?

1:41:26 > 1:41:33Initially totally shocked. It took us a good half an hour for it to

1:41:33 > 1:41:39sink in. After six weeks of going through hell, taking to the stand,

1:41:39 > 1:41:45telling people that your abuse... One of the hardest things we've had

1:41:45 > 1:41:49to do in our lives but when the verdict came through yesterday, it

1:41:49 > 1:41:54sunk in, total relief to finally get justice.One can only imagine how

1:41:54 > 1:41:58awful it was having to be on the stand, as you said, over the past

1:41:58 > 1:42:03six weeks but would you mind telling our viewers, telling us, your

1:42:03 > 1:42:09experience, your relationship with this man, Barry Bennell, who had

1:42:09 > 1:42:15abused you when you were a child? Yes. I come from Plymouth, which is

1:42:15 > 1:42:19obviously a long way from macro crew, so I had no other option

1:42:19 > 1:42:26really than to stay at his house in Buxton -- Crewe. The old grooming

1:42:26 > 1:42:32process, lavishing you with gifts, top of the range sportswear...

1:42:32 > 1:42:37Monkees and

1:42:37 > 1:42:41Monkees and leopards Pumas, dogs, everything really. Slowly but surely

1:42:41 > 1:42:51he groomed me. The first time he tried something I managed to stop it

1:42:51 > 1:42:57happening but after two or three weeks of messing me about with

1:42:57 > 1:42:59threatening to ruin my football career and various things, the

1:42:59 > 1:43:08inevitable happened.Who did you manage to tell, if anyone, what was

1:43:08 > 1:43:13happening to you?To be honest I told a few people, I told my dad in

1:43:13 > 1:43:18my early 20s, I had a panic attack and ended up in hospital and when I

1:43:18 > 1:43:26came out I told him. As far as I'm aware he didn't do nothing. That was

1:43:26 > 1:43:31a huge hammer blow for me after doing something so difficult with

1:43:31 > 1:43:40that decision. I'd told me mum and my ex-wife. I went to a doctor in

1:43:40 > 1:43:452012 also so I have told quite a few people.What we're hearing from you

1:43:45 > 1:43:51and other people who have been victims of Barry Bennell is once you

1:43:51 > 1:43:54finally spoke, eventually at least now there's been some conclusion,

1:43:54 > 1:43:58the verdict has been handed down, we're waiting for his sentencing on

1:43:58 > 1:44:04Monday, what next? What should be done now? Are you encouraged at all

1:44:04 > 1:44:08by the way bodies are reacting, the FA, the Football Association is

1:44:08 > 1:44:16reacting to this in the ways of protecting young children now?The

1:44:16 > 1:44:21court process has finally found the truth. Like I just said now, we've

1:44:21 > 1:44:25had justice and the truth has come out, hopefully now the footballing

1:44:25 > 1:44:30authorities and the football clubs can just find out the truth. We all

1:44:30 > 1:44:34know what happened, there's that many of us. People must have known

1:44:34 > 1:44:40about it so let the truth come out. That's all I want and that's all we

1:44:40 > 1:44:45want, the truth.Steve, have you been able to move on with life now?

1:44:45 > 1:44:48You've spoken to family members, you've spoken to medical staff, you

1:44:48 > 1:44:55have sought help?Yes. I mentioned to a few people yesterday, yesterday

1:44:55 > 1:45:00was the first day of my new life. The burden's been lifted. Obviously

1:45:00 > 1:45:05I've still got a long way to go on a personal level but I want to move on

1:45:05 > 1:45:09forwards and onwards now and just look forward in life and become a

1:45:09 > 1:45:15better person. Steve, your bravery just in telling

1:45:15 > 1:45:19your story and helping this man to conviction would have helped many

1:45:19 > 1:45:23people I'm sure. Thank you for your bravery in talking to us and I wish

1:45:23 > 1:45:28you well with the first day, as you say, of the rest of your life.Thank

1:45:28 > 1:45:33you very much.It's worth pointing out there will be more on the story

1:45:33 > 1:45:38of Barry Bennell and his crimes and abuse on the Victoria Derbyshire

1:45:38 > 1:45:41programme, a special programme, starting at 9am on the BBC News

1:45:41 > 1:45:43Channel.

1:45:43 > 1:45:46Matt's out in Oxfordshire this morning to take a look

1:45:46 > 1:45:48at today's weather.

1:45:48 > 1:45:54Good morning. Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire is where we are based

1:45:54 > 1:45:58this morning. The building was home of the 12th of YouGov Marlborough

1:45:58 > 1:46:02and the birthplace of Winston Churchill as well. Unesco World

1:46:02 > 1:46:08Heritage site. And it's also about the lovely parkland and gardens,

1:46:08 > 1:46:13forestry and rivers behind me, which extend across a large area. A

1:46:13 > 1:46:18beautiful place to visit on the edge of The Cotswolds and it is shaping

1:46:18 > 1:46:18up

1:46:18 > 1:46:21of The Cotswolds and it is shaping up to be a lovely day. Frost on the

1:46:21 > 1:46:26ground behind me. It is a frosty start for many. A bit of a frosty

1:46:26 > 1:46:30Friday. But if you have any plans for our doors, today will be a

1:46:30 > 1:46:36cracking day. Mostly fine, but a few wintry showers in the north of

1:46:36 > 1:46:41Scotland. Maybe a couple into the west of Northern Ireland as well.

1:46:41 > 1:46:45Both staying dry. Cloud increasing from the west through the day and

1:46:45 > 1:46:50across parts of south-west England, Wales, maybe north-west England,

1:46:50 > 1:46:54sunshine turning hazy in the afternoon. The cloud could be thick

1:46:54 > 1:46:58enough or rain at times in parts of western Scotland. We continue to see

1:46:58 > 1:47:02showers come and go. A mixture of rain, sleet and snow and maybe

1:47:02 > 1:47:09thunder, but not as many as yesterday. Wheezy in the north of

1:47:09 > 1:47:14Scotland. That will keep temperatures back a touch. But for

1:47:14 > 1:47:17many after a frosty start temperatures will be a bit above

1:47:17 > 1:47:22where they should be at this time of year, 11- 12 in southern parts of

1:47:22 > 1:47:27Scotland. Overnight rain, sleet and hill snow with hail mixed in and

1:47:27 > 1:47:31gusty winds heading to northern England and north and west Wales.

1:47:31 > 1:47:34Either side of it some clear skies. Icy weather into parts of western

1:47:34 > 1:47:39Scotland and Northern Ireland to start tomorrow morning. Further

1:47:39 > 1:47:43south and east, frosty again on the weekend, like morning sunshine.

1:47:43 > 1:47:47Tomorrow has more cloud around. Rain at times. Hill snow in northern

1:47:47 > 1:47:52parts of Scotland. That edges southwards and it will fizzle out

1:47:52 > 1:47:59and break out. Sunny spells developing elsewhere. Just a few

1:47:59 > 1:48:02showers in northern Scotland. For many it's still a fine day. Another

1:48:02 > 1:48:07reasonably mild one. Through Saturday night and into Sunday we

1:48:07 > 1:48:11see sky is clear for a time in many areas. There could be a touch of

1:48:11 > 1:48:16frost in the east. Most will be frost free into Sunday. The best of

1:48:16 > 1:48:20any breaks in a cloud on Sunday likely to be further east, but in

1:48:20 > 1:48:24western areas in particular we will see it damp, drizzly and quite

1:48:24 > 1:48:28murky, but it will be another mile day. Temperatures could reach double

1:48:28 > 1:48:33figures in many parts. This weekend if you have any plans, temperatures

1:48:33 > 1:48:37up on what we saw over the last few days. The best of the weather

1:48:37 > 1:48:43probably on Saturday for many. Even on Sunday many eastern areas could

1:48:43 > 1:48:48just about get away with a largely dry day. That's how the forecast is

1:48:48 > 1:48:58looking. Back to you.

1:48:59 > 1:49:01looking. Back to you. It really does look stunning. Turn around and enjoy

1:49:01 > 1:49:01it!

1:49:01 > 1:49:03look stunning. Turn around and enjoy it!

1:49:03 > 1:49:07The sun is coming up as well. They'll put that on the

1:49:07 > 1:49:14merchandising. Man enjoying view. Thank you very much.

1:49:14 > 1:49:18You may have noticed in the papers this week that apparently there are

1:49:18 > 1:49:25more young people and ever who are on the property ladder. Yet, Ben, we

1:49:25 > 1:49:29are also reporting that there are fewer people buying a house for the

1:49:29 > 1:49:33first time. Are you going to bust some of these numbers?

1:49:33 > 1:49:38They will do my best. The ones only in the week, the figures, were

1:49:38 > 1:49:44looking at returns for first-time buyers and that was based on during

1:49:44 > 1:49:48the height of the financial crisis. Slowly those buyers are coming back.

1:49:48 > 1:49:52This morning we are looking at figures from the Institute of Fiscal

1:49:52 > 1:49:57Studies. They look at over the past 20 years and say how difficult is it

1:49:57 > 1:50:01now to buy a house if you are a young person, versus how hard it was

1:50:01 > 1:50:06then? There are two big differences. One is cost. Can you people afford

1:50:06 > 1:50:09to get a mortgage and the deposit together, but the other is whether

1:50:09 > 1:50:14there are enough houses to get a full -- available. This morning we

1:50:14 > 1:50:18are talking about how difficult it is for young people to get on the

1:50:18 > 1:50:21property ladder and the figures don't suggest it will be easy. It

1:50:21 > 1:50:24chewed for fiscal studies says home ownership or young people has

1:50:24 > 1:50:31collapsed over the last few decades. -- the Institute for Fiscal Studies.

1:50:31 > 1:50:36In the mid- 90s 50% of people on a middle income could own air on home.

1:50:36 > 1:50:45Recent figures suggest... INAUDIBLE. Rising prices are an issue, but

1:50:45 > 1:50:52there's also a big shortage of being built. Local Government Association

1:50:52 > 1:50:54says over 400,000 new homes were given planning permission but

1:50:54 > 1:51:00they've not yet been built.It's completely out of reach at the

1:51:00 > 1:51:06moment. There's not a chance I can get a deposit. It is such a cost.

1:51:06 > 1:51:10With utility bills and the cost of trains going to London, it's just an

1:51:10 > 1:51:16achievable. Friends are around the same age and none of us are on the

1:51:16 > 1:51:19property ladder yet. My mum always talks about how she got on the

1:51:19 > 1:51:24property ladder by 25, 20 six. I've hit 30 and there's not a chance I

1:51:24 > 1:51:28will get there soon. You constantly hear those stories of how little

1:51:28 > 1:51:32they have to pay. I am looking at further. I have lived in Brighton

1:51:32 > 1:51:38for ten years, but there's not a chance I would be able to buy here.

1:51:38 > 1:51:42I've got a housing expert with beef. Good morning. When you hear stories

1:51:42 > 1:51:47like that it is pretty typical. Parents say, it was cheaper on my

1:51:47 > 1:51:53day. We will talk more about that in the second. A lot of people have got

1:51:53 > 1:51:57in touch saying it even wasn't that easy 20 or 30 years ago. Why is it

1:51:57 > 1:52:01so difficult for young people to get on the ladder?House prices have

1:52:01 > 1:52:05risen seven times faster than wages, which means properties are

1:52:05 > 1:52:11unaffordable. With the average house price of £227,000 in the UK and the

1:52:11 > 1:52:17average median income of people between 25 and 34 being anywhere

1:52:17 > 1:52:24between 20 and £30,000, four times salary mortgage lending is simply

1:52:24 > 1:52:29insufficient. They can't afford to get on the ladder.But prices have

1:52:29 > 1:52:35gone up so quickly, as you say. Is it that we are not building enough?

1:52:35 > 1:52:39It's a combination of a lot of things, but supply and property

1:52:39 > 1:52:44stock is always what is considered. We need to be building 300,000 homes

1:52:44 > 1:52:47the year to meet demand and we are simply not doing that. Planning

1:52:47 > 1:52:54permission has been accepted for 423,000 new homes, but has

1:52:54 > 1:52:59construction started? No, they say developers are taking up to three

1:52:59 > 1:53:04years to build the homes. They are always land grabbing and waiting for

1:53:04 > 1:53:08property prices to go up and then build.That can't happen if we want

1:53:08 > 1:53:12to meet demand. Mortgages are pretty cheap right now. We've seen record

1:53:12 > 1:53:16low interest rate since the financial crisis. To get a mortgage

1:53:16 > 1:53:23and repay it is cheap. The problem is you need a big mortgage to a --

1:53:23 > 1:53:27afford the house you want.Interest rates are so low, but if you can

1:53:27 > 1:53:31only borrow four times your salary you can only afford half your home

1:53:31 > 1:53:35for the whole of the UK. What we get to London you can't even afford a

1:53:35 > 1:53:40fifth of your home. You have the get their equity that people don't have.

1:53:40 > 1:53:44The other problem is we have an increasing generation who are

1:53:44 > 1:53:47renting will stop so many renters and the sector. 21% of households

1:53:47 > 1:53:53rent and that set the increase to 24% in the next five years. People

1:53:53 > 1:53:58are pushing all of their money into rent. In the north, we are looking

1:53:58 > 1:54:02at around 25% of people putting their money into rent. In London,

1:54:02 > 1:54:0750%. All of their money is going into the rental market and not

1:54:07 > 1:54:11eating brought out for saving to be able to save up for that deposit.It

1:54:11 > 1:54:18is fascinating. I just want to talk about a couple of comments. Colin

1:54:18 > 1:54:22says it has never been easy to get on the housing that. Interest rates

1:54:22 > 1:54:29are 50% or 60% in the 90s. Paul says you have to live in an undesirable

1:54:29 > 1:54:34area at first. He says his first flat in the 70s cost £9,000 but he

1:54:34 > 1:54:38paid 15% interest rate. It is all about context.

1:54:38 > 1:54:43Thanks very much. Ben is the maths bring this morning!

1:54:43 > 1:54:50Lots of statistics. Is that maths? Of course! We are

1:54:50 > 1:54:55launching our special maths series today. Jane has been to school. She

1:54:55 > 1:55:00is nervous about maths and she went to a school in derby with a love the

1:55:00 > 1:55:04subject.They do love the subject. Good morning from wind Primary

1:55:04 > 1:55:16School. Good morning! -- Winham. Good morning!These students are

1:55:16 > 1:55:23giving me a maths lesson. 49% of people in this country have the

1:55:23 > 1:55:27maths skills of primary school children. Does that apply to you,

1:55:27 > 1:55:36Steve, the cameraman? Right, do a quick maths.12 times nine.208.11

1:55:36 > 1:55:48times 11.221.Six squared.26.-- 36. Clearly you know what you are

1:55:48 > 1:55:52doing. They do the Shanghai method here. Shanghai is the top of the

1:55:52 > 1:55:56global rankings when it comes to maths. Our country and England and

1:55:56 > 1:56:00Ireland are in the bottom four. It is all about learning that is

1:56:00 > 1:56:04visually.How does this work? So how many parts make a whole? So seven

1:56:04 > 1:56:12parts. And how many parts have we got?Two equal parts.So how could

1:56:12 > 1:56:19we write that as a fraction?Two separate.It's about having a deeper

1:56:19 > 1:56:29understanding. How does it work?We are one of the 35 schools that

1:56:29 > 1:56:35provides support the early children and later as well. The problem with

1:56:35 > 1:56:39Max has been that we learn this procedure and the tricks of the

1:56:39 > 1:56:43trade and actually we want children to understand the structure of the

1:56:43 > 1:56:48maths that is being taught.And is it working?It is. I think the

1:56:48 > 1:56:55confidence shows in the classroom. Quickly, let's chat to someone from

1:56:55 > 1:57:00the -- National New Morrissey. How do we fix this problem?All of this

1:57:00 > 1:57:04stuff is brilliant, the biggest issue is out there amongst parents

1:57:04 > 1:57:09and other adults. Kids are getting it right. There are two things

1:57:09 > 1:57:14adults can do. As a parent, never say you can't do maths. Secondly, do

1:57:14 > 1:57:19something about it. We have something called the national new

1:57:19 > 1:57:22Morrissey challenge. You can check out everyday maths skills. --

1:57:22 > 1:57:30numeracy.We will also talk to a parent over here. She used to say

1:57:30 > 1:57:34she couldn't do it. But we are going to do better now. Chat to you later.

1:57:34 > 1:57:42Say goodbye, kids! See you later, Jane. Perhaps Jane

2:02:58 > 2:03:01I'll look at what's being done to keep them running.

2:03:01 > 2:03:07And breakfast goes back to school. Though be looking at the UK's mounts

2:03:30 > 2:03:31Good morning.

2:03:31 > 2:03:32First, our main story.

2:03:32 > 2:03:35The 19 year old accused of carrying out a school shooting in Florida,

2:03:35 > 2:03:37which left 17 people dead, has appeared in court charged

2:03:37 > 2:03:38with premeditated murder.

2:03:38 > 2:03:41Nikolas Cruz went on a killing spree in the town of

2:03:41 > 2:03:42Parkland on Wednesday.

2:03:42 > 2:03:45The FBI is now investigating how it handled a warning that the teenager

2:03:45 > 2:03:48reportedly posted on YouTube claiming he would be

2:03:48 > 2:03:51a "professional school shooter".

2:03:51 > 2:03:54Vigils were held late into the night in tribute to the victims,

2:03:54 > 2:03:57as Nada Tawfiq reports.

2:03:57 > 2:03:59They came to mourn the lives lost and the lives scarred

2:03:59 > 2:04:03by this senseless attack.

2:04:03 > 2:04:05Neighbours, friends and the students of Stoneman Douglas High comforted

2:04:05 > 2:04:10one another as best they could.

2:04:10 > 2:04:13Jett Weetsma was among the students who ran in panic once the first

2:04:13 > 2:04:15shots were fired.

2:04:15 > 2:04:17He doesn't know if he can handle returning to the halls

2:04:17 > 2:04:20where his classmates' lives were cut short.

2:04:20 > 2:04:24I don't know if I'll be able to cope with just walking

2:04:24 > 2:04:26through the bottom floor of the freshman building,

2:04:26 > 2:04:31knowing that everything has been cleaned up...

2:04:31 > 2:04:34Like, everything - you can almost imagine blood

2:04:34 > 2:04:38on the walls, bodies on the floor.

2:04:38 > 2:04:41No one is going to be able to walk through that building.

2:04:41 > 2:04:42No one.

2:04:42 > 2:04:45All 17 victims have now been identified.

2:04:45 > 2:04:49Among them talented students, star athletes and Aaron Feis,

2:04:49 > 2:04:52a beloved football coach and security guard.

2:04:52 > 2:04:54He has been called a hero for shielding children

2:04:54 > 2:05:01from the gunman's bullets.

2:05:01 > 2:05:12Our unit Jacob Cruise?Yes.

2:05:12 > 2:05:14Nikolas Cruz appeared in court briefly on 17 charges

2:05:14 > 2:05:15of premeditated murder.

2:05:15 > 2:05:17His lawyer said he was sad and remorseful and described him

2:05:17 > 2:05:19as a broken human being.

2:05:19 > 2:05:21The sheriff's office said he confessed to opening fire

2:05:21 > 2:05:22on his former school.

2:05:22 > 2:05:24He told authorities he bought a drink at Subway and stopped

2:05:24 > 2:05:26at McDonald's after the rampage.

2:05:26 > 2:05:29On social media, Cruz often posed with guns and in one post he wrote

2:05:29 > 2:05:31he would be a professional school shooter.

2:05:31 > 2:05:35Those who knew him were troubled by his behaviour.

2:05:35 > 2:05:41He's someone who used racial slurs, who was just awful to other people

2:05:41 > 2:05:44and I'm sure he was bullied himself by some but he was the type

2:05:44 > 2:05:46of person where people were scared to

2:05:46 > 2:05:48bully him because they knew something could happen.

2:05:48 > 2:05:51They just didn't think this would happen.

2:05:51 > 2:05:54These terrifying scenes of students completely helpless and trembling

2:05:54 > 2:05:57with fear have shaken the nation and they have reignited

2:05:57 > 2:06:01the debate on gun control.

2:06:01 > 2:06:04People here are in a state of shock, that someone from their own

2:06:04 > 2:06:07community could be capable of such killing,

2:06:07 > 2:06:10and that their city now joins the long list of America's

2:06:10 > 2:06:13school shooting tragedies.

2:06:13 > 2:06:16Nada Tawfiq, BBC News, Parkland, Florida.

2:06:24 > 2:06:28The head of Oxfam International says the charity will look into

2:06:28 > 2:06:38allegations of sexual abuse. Winnie the

2:06:40 > 2:06:46the Nina says steps would be made. First of all. Roland Van

2:06:46 > 2:06:51Hauwermeiren has spoken, allegations building up against him and we are

2:06:51 > 2:07:00finding out more about the allegations. He has been accused of

2:07:00 > 2:07:05using prostitutes in Chad in 2006, he was director of operations and in

2:07:05 > 2:07:11Liberia, he was director of a different charity, 2004 work spoke

2:07:11 > 2:07:17to a radio station and said he had not paid for any prostitutes on any

2:07:17 > 2:07:21single deployment for Oxfam, said he was sacked for a different reason,

2:07:21 > 2:07:24the future vision for Oxfam but he did feel ashamed, he said there were

2:07:24 > 2:07:28things he did that were not right, in future he realised looking back

2:07:28 > 2:07:33he would not be able to properly account for them, he put himself

2:07:33 > 2:07:36open and exposed himself to these allegations. It is a very different

2:07:36 > 2:07:41account to what we have in hearing, the use of prostitutes, he said it

2:07:41 > 2:07:45was a woman in Haiti he fell in love of, had a sexual relationship with

2:07:45 > 2:07:51and this is in explaining his account of what went on in Haiti.

2:07:51 > 2:07:55TRANSLATION: It was just as decent as if I were to meet a woman in the

2:07:55 > 2:07:59city and I have a girlfriend here, we fell in love, nothing wrong with

2:07:59 > 2:08:02that. Of course I admitted I should have known better at the time,

2:08:02 > 2:08:07knowing gossip can spread and this can lead to suspicion, it could be

2:08:07 > 2:08:14interpreted wrongly.There are also allegations going back to when he

2:08:14 > 2:08:18worked in Liberia with the British charity Merlin, he said specific

2:08:18 > 2:08:23allegations were wrote about quote by either someone on a moral crusade

2:08:23 > 2:08:29on someone who had vengeance out to get him, he was aware there was one

2:08:29 > 2:08:34occasion he was flirting with women who he later found out were

2:08:34 > 2:08:38prostitutes, that again exposed him to allegations and suspicions that

2:08:38 > 2:08:41were not correct. This is his account again of what happened in

2:08:41 > 2:08:48Liberia.TRANSLATION: In Liberia Isil into a trap, I can admit it was

2:08:48 > 2:08:55stupid to be part of a party to be in a club for growth are dancing

2:08:55 > 2:08:58provocatively. I joined in the dancing, turned out there were

2:08:58 > 2:09:02prostitutes, I danced with them again at a party, I should be

2:09:02 > 2:09:05sanctioned for that I do admit, I should have reacted better, that I

2:09:05 > 2:09:11do regret. The Chief Executive director of Oxfam saying they are

2:09:11 > 2:09:17looking to perform huge reforms within Oxfam including a commission

2:09:17 > 2:09:22to investigate what happened in the past and doubling the budget for the

2:09:22 > 2:09:25safeguarding team, and having a referee system to stop people being

2:09:25 > 2:09:29referred if this happens again in future. Thank you.

2:09:29 > 2:09:31The Football Association is to review thousands of files

2:09:31 > 2:09:34to find out how much was known about the abuse carried out

2:09:34 > 2:09:37by former youth coach Barry Bennell, as part of its internal review.

2:09:37 > 2:09:40Yesterday he was found guilty of another seven counts of sexually

2:09:40 > 2:09:43abusing boys meaning he's now been convicted of a total of 43 offences

2:09:43 > 2:09:48between 1979 and 1990.

2:09:48 > 2:09:50Earlier we spoke to one of his victims, David Lean,

2:09:50 > 2:09:52who gave us his reaction to the verdict.

2:09:52 > 2:09:57It's great to obviously finally see justice.

2:09:57 > 2:10:01I don't really feel I got justice in 2015, he just got a two-year

2:10:01 > 2:10:02sentence, served 12 months.

2:10:02 > 2:10:05I always knew there was going to be many more, told everybody

2:10:05 > 2:10:07there was many more, and finally it's been

2:10:07 > 2:10:14shown there's been many more.

2:10:17 > 2:10:19Britain's bus network has shrunk to levels last

2:10:19 > 2:10:21seen in the late 1980s, that's according

2:10:21 > 2:10:22to a BBC investigation.

2:10:22 > 2:10:25Rising car use and cuts to public funding are being blamed for a loss

2:10:25 > 2:10:28of 134 million miles of coverage over the past decade alone.

2:10:28 > 2:10:30"The Campaign For Better Transport" says the scale

2:10:30 > 2:10:34of the miles lost is a sign that buses are on course to be cut

2:10:34 > 2:10:40to the same extent railways were in the 1960s.

2:10:49 > 2:10:54It's ten minutes past eight. We have a bronze medal. Catherine Downes is

2:10:54 > 2:11:00in Pyeongchang and is following the events. What is how then?We are

2:11:00 > 2:11:06celebrating Great Britain first bronze medal of the games, the first

2:11:06 > 2:11:13medal for Team GB, in action in the Sliding Centre. I hopes to come for

2:11:13 > 2:11:16the women later with Lizzy Yarnold and Laura Deas going on later

2:11:16 > 2:11:24tonight. Dom Parsons, for Great Britain, he secured bronze in the

2:11:24 > 2:11:29men's skeleton, by the tiniest of margins. It's always a tiny margins

2:11:29 > 2:11:33when it comes to the skeleton, I can hear shouting below me, Dom Parsons

2:11:33 > 2:11:38is on his way, that's him getting ready to do his interview but let me

2:11:38 > 2:11:44talk you through how he did it. A sleepless night for him, in third

2:11:44 > 2:11:48position after the third run, his first run today. He managed to hold

2:11:48 > 2:11:53onto the bronze medal position, but then one of the Olympic Athletes

2:11:53 > 2:11:59from Russia jumped above him into silver, agonising wait for Dom

2:11:59 > 2:12:06Parsons, two left to go, clean run for him in the final run down the

2:12:06 > 2:12:10slope, not maybe the fastest starts at he would have wanted, he had to

2:12:10 > 2:12:15wait in the bronze medal position with two athletes left to go, one of

2:12:15 > 2:12:19them two time Olympic silver medallist from Latvia, who you would

2:12:19 > 2:12:27expect to perform brilliantly. And he did not, and uncharacteristic

2:12:27 > 2:12:32mistake

2:12:34 > 2:12:40mistake from Martins Dukurs meant that it was a bronze medal for Great

2:12:40 > 2:12:48Britain, the first in many decades. Dom Parsons!

2:12:48 > 2:12:54CHEERING Catherine, it looks so good over

2:12:54 > 2:13:01there, thank you so much. We have got one! And we are going to take a

2:13:01 > 2:13:05moment to go back to the commentary. You know the commentators get very

2:13:05 > 2:13:16excited. This is as the bronze medal came in.

2:13:21 > 2:13:27Do you know how bad is? There is a technical, there is audio on two

2:13:27 > 2:13:30legs, we only heard the audio on one of them.

2:13:30 > 2:13:32legs, we only heard the audio on one of them. That was the sound of the

2:13:32 > 2:13:35member that the commentary. We will come back to that later. And here

2:13:35 > 2:13:39the full version. All the weather with Matt coming up and Michael

2:13:39 > 2:13:46Bloomberg does as well. The time is 30 minutes past eight.

2:13:46 > 2:13:49Let's return now to our top story and the murder of 17 people

2:13:49 > 2:13:51in the deadliest US school shooting since 2012.

2:13:51 > 2:13:53Teachers and pupils ran for cover as 19 year

2:13:53 > 2:13:58old Nikolas Cruz began his attack.

2:13:58 > 2:14:04The victims have even remembered at vigils, here are some of the

2:14:04 > 2:14:16pictures of those who died, teenagers of all ages.

2:14:19 > 2:14:23Earlier we spoke to one of the teachers, who was involved in the

2:14:23 > 2:14:24shooting incident.

2:14:24 > 2:14:26I was actually teaching a history of the Holocaust class.

2:14:26 > 2:14:28I had mostly seniors in that class.

2:14:28 > 2:14:30I was in front of a big Recordex board.

2:14:30 > 2:14:32We were finishing a big lesson on the 1936 Olympics,

2:14:32 > 2:14:34actually, in Berlin, when we just heard extremely

2:14:34 > 2:14:38loud pop, pop, pop.

2:14:38 > 2:14:41The kids instantaneously dove for the floor.

2:14:41 > 2:14:44They didn't even think about it, they didn't question it.

2:14:44 > 2:14:45It was unmistakable, what's that sound was.

2:14:47 > 2:14:50The kids all just tried to take cover,

2:14:50 > 2:14:53in the perimeter of the classroom.

2:14:53 > 2:14:56So you realised something was happening.

2:14:56 > 2:14:59Was it immediately apparent that it was a shooter,

2:14:59 > 2:15:02and when they came very close to where you were, tell me

2:15:02 > 2:15:04what happened next?

2:15:04 > 2:15:09Well, there was a lot of students, so we just tried to go

2:15:09 > 2:15:15behind my desk, behind file cabinets, behind the laptop

2:15:15 > 2:15:17cart, there is a lot of stuff in the classroom.

2:15:17 > 2:15:18So they tried to find cover.

2:15:18 > 2:15:23It was instantaneous.

2:15:23 > 2:15:26Within seconds, the shooter came to my door and he shot out the whole

2:15:26 > 2:15:30glass panel inside the door.

2:15:30 > 2:15:34Hitting students, while he did that.

2:15:34 > 2:15:39And this is the point, this is so awful for you, I know,

2:15:39 > 2:15:42you lost some of the students that were in your class at that time?

2:15:42 > 2:15:45Yes.

2:15:45 > 2:15:49We didn't know it at the time, but he hit several students

2:15:49 > 2:15:55and they were injured, and I didn't realise at that moment.

2:15:55 > 2:15:59Two female, and a male student, who are seniors and ready to go to

2:15:59 > 2:16:05college soon, they were killed.OK, I am really seeking not to distress

2:16:05 > 2:16:09you any further and I know it is very difficult for you. We have now

2:16:09 > 2:16:15seen some of the names and ages of those students, they will be

2:16:15 > 2:16:24students you know well, 14, 15, 16, 17 years old. You have had a little

2:16:24 > 2:16:31time to try to understand what happened what do you make of it now?

2:16:31 > 2:16:37I make no sense of this will stop it was completely random, completely

2:16:37 > 2:16:40senseless. This teenager should not have had an assault rifle at all. I

2:16:40 > 2:16:45don't think we were targeted. I didn't know the shooter, I have been

2:16:45 > 2:16:49teaching at that school for 17 years, it is a large suburban high

2:16:49 > 2:16:56school. I did not know him, I just think that, for whatever vendetta he

2:16:56 > 2:17:00had, he just randomly was seeking out several classrooms, and ours was

2:17:00 > 2:17:06unfortunately one of them.From what we understand, explain this for us,

2:17:06 > 2:17:09you were explaining how your students reacted, that they did

2:17:09 > 2:17:13exactly the right thing at the time, notwithstanding the terrible loss

2:17:13 > 2:17:17that you have suffered within your classroom. They did entirely the

2:17:17 > 2:17:20right thing. It was something you had rehearsed for? You had trained

2:17:20 > 2:17:27your students for?Yes, sir. We had been practising, because of

2:17:27 > 2:17:30everything we have seen on the news. We were practising what would happen

2:17:30 > 2:17:40in a

2:17:40 > 2:17:47in a Code Black, Code Red. They knew to take cover, nobody wondered if it

2:17:47 > 2:17:51was a drill, nobody looked around, I was very proud of them, they ran to

2:17:51 > 2:17:55find anything to cover themselves, to hide behind something. They were

2:17:55 > 2:18:01all crowded behind my desk, trying to call 911.A couple of last

2:18:01 > 2:18:04thoughts, are you going to be going back to the school itself? I know

2:18:04 > 2:18:09there have been vigils held. I don't know if you have been at those?

2:18:09 > 2:18:15These must be agonising times?Yes, very. I went yesterday in the

2:18:15 > 2:18:19afternoon, I had been there for several hours. The students found it

2:18:19 > 2:18:23quite therapeutic. We were able to reunite. There were a lot of rumours

2:18:23 > 2:18:27going around, rumours that I had been injured or killed, so just by

2:18:27 > 2:18:30seeing each other and being with each other, I have no idea when

2:18:30 > 2:18:35school will be ready to be in session.Given that you were in the

2:18:35 > 2:18:39classroom when this occurred, the students you know so well, how do

2:18:39 > 2:18:44you think you will go about helping them deal with something that no

2:18:44 > 2:18:50young person, indeed no teacher, nobody should have to go through?

2:18:50 > 2:18:53No, nobody should ever, I didn't think I would have to do this. I

2:18:53 > 2:18:58just think if I am there for them, I love my students dearly. I just feel

2:18:58 > 2:19:05like if we listen and we talk about this, it really does help to talk

2:19:05 > 2:19:09and listen to what they have to say, just let them know that we love

2:19:09 > 2:19:22them.Ivy Seamus, you heard her account, she was teaching a class

2:19:22 > 2:19:27when the shooter arrived. Sadly, two pupils of hers were killed in the

2:19:27 > 2:19:31attack. She kindly spoke to us to take us through her thoughts as

2:19:31 > 2:19:34people tried to come to terms.

2:19:36 > 2:19:43This is the view over Blenheim Palace. It is frosty on the ground,

2:19:43 > 2:19:46but Matt promises there might be signs of spring on the way.Yes,

2:19:46 > 2:19:52what a lovely view. We are in the grounds Blenheim Palace in

2:19:52 > 2:19:55Oxfordshire, one of the biggest stately homes in the UK. It is run

2:19:55 > 2:20:00by the 12th Duke, birthplace to Winston Churchill. Look at the

2:20:00 > 2:20:06surroundings behind me. That is in amongst the 2000 acres of grounds

2:20:06 > 2:20:11and forestry they have here. Beautiful start to the day. But a

2:20:11 > 2:20:15thick frost on the ground.

2:20:15 > 2:20:19A cold start across many parts of the UK, but it is shaping up to be a

2:20:19 > 2:20:24lovely Friday. Let us look at the forecast. Most places will be fine,

2:20:24 > 2:20:29but there are a few showers to the north-west of the UK in particular.

2:20:29 > 2:20:35Nowhere near as many as we have had. Most will get away largely dry. This

2:20:35 > 2:20:39morning, plenty of sunshine around. The frost will be melting, the sun

2:20:39 > 2:20:44is up. Give it a few more hours. More cloud drifting from the West

2:20:44 > 2:20:49during the day, turning the sunshine hazy. Most places staying dry. As we

2:20:49 > 2:20:53drift across the western part of the UK and into the afternoon, the cloud

2:20:53 > 2:20:57turns the sunshine hazy in the West. Could produce the odd spot of rain

2:20:57 > 2:21:00and hill snow in Northern Ireland, more particularly across western

2:21:00 > 2:21:04parts of Scotland, but nowhere near as much as you have seen over the

2:21:04 > 2:21:08past few days. Parisian northern Scotland with wind close to gale

2:21:08 > 2:21:13force. Lighter than the past few days for many. Sunshine overhead,

2:21:13 > 2:21:19and it will be a pleasant afternoon, potentially substance of spring. A

2:21:19 > 2:21:22few changes overnight in Scotland and Northern Ireland, a fairly brief

2:21:22 > 2:21:28spell of rain and hill snow across northern England and parts of Wales.

2:21:28 > 2:21:31Either side of that we will see clear skies around. There will be a

2:21:31 > 2:21:36chance of frost towards the and north west of the country. The

2:21:36 > 2:21:39north-west, icy conditions into Saturday morning. Saturday, sunny

2:21:39 > 2:21:42spells across many areas but a lot more cloud generally. Northern

2:21:42 > 2:21:45England, Wales, parts of the Midlands, it might start of grey

2:21:45 > 2:21:49with outbreaks of rain or drizzle. Hill snow as well. That will work

2:21:49 > 2:21:56southwards and start to decay. Most places staying dry, sunny spells

2:21:56 > 2:21:58into the afternoon with temperatures into double figures across the South

2:21:58 > 2:22:02and above where they have been this week in the north. Through Saturday

2:22:02 > 2:22:06night and into Sunday, cloud will gradually increase across the

2:22:06 > 2:22:10country. That will stop it being too frosty into Sunday. Not as cold on

2:22:10 > 2:22:14Sunday. It will be cloudy, by and large, and quite grey at times in

2:22:14 > 2:22:18the West, turning murky over the hills with outbreaks of rain or

2:22:18 > 2:22:24drizzle around. How quickly it moves eastwards, some uncertainty. I am

2:22:24 > 2:22:26optimistic that many areas will stay dry through the day and temperatures

2:22:26 > 2:22:29across the board above where they have been and above where they

2:22:29 > 2:22:32should be for the time of year. If you do get any sunshine this

2:22:32 > 2:22:35weekend, with mild weather dominating, a few hints of spring.

2:22:35 > 2:22:39Saturday is the brighter of the two days. Next week, it looks like we

2:22:39 > 2:22:43could see things turning colder once again. That is how it is looking,

2:22:43 > 2:22:48back to you.

2:22:48 > 2:22:52It looks gorgeous, forget worrying about spring, it is Chinese New

2:22:52 > 2:22:57Year, the year of the dog. I am thinking of the kind of party we

2:22:57 > 2:23:02could have. I have a quiz for you. Are you up for it? At this party,

2:23:02 > 2:23:08there are dogs, roosters and monkeys. It sounds like a great

2:23:08 > 2:23:12party!I really want to go to this party, fantastic.There are twice as

2:23:12 > 2:23:22many dogs as roosters, twice as many roosters as there are monkeys. OK?

2:23:22 > 2:23:27We are writing all of this down. So, your challenge this morning, all of

2:23:27 > 2:23:30the dogs have four fleet, the monkeys and roosters, they have two

2:23:30 > 2:23:41each. -- feet. 88 animal feet at the party. How many dogs, roosters and

2:23:41 > 2:23:47monkeys? Will you have the answer in 30 minutes when we next week to you?

2:23:49 > 2:23:54Yes, I will.Matt is always up for a challenge.I thought you wanted me

2:23:54 > 2:24:00to do it on the spot!I am not that mean. You can see that on the BBC

2:24:00 > 2:24:05website and the home page, and on our social media.

2:24:05 > 2:24:08Thefts and robberies by people riding mopeds on London's main

2:24:08 > 2:24:11shopping streets have increased six-fold over the last two years.

2:24:11 > 2:24:14New data from the Metropolitan Police shows there were almost 300

2:24:14 > 2:24:15incidents on Oxford Street in one year.

2:24:15 > 2:24:18Let's take a look at what's been happening.

2:24:20 > 2:24:23This is the kind of attack that police are trying to stop,

2:24:23 > 2:24:28mopeds gangs are targeting people's phones, wallets and bags.

2:24:28 > 2:24:31They threaten and steal, and some of them go to extreme

2:24:31 > 2:24:34lengths to get what they want.

2:24:34 > 2:24:37New police data shows that Oxford Street was the place

2:24:37 > 2:24:39where most offences took place last year, with 291, compared

2:24:39 > 2:24:43to 34 the year before.

2:24:43 > 2:24:48And just 13 in 2014-15.

2:24:48 > 2:24:50But the Met Police say that intensive operations have led

2:24:50 > 2:24:57to a decrease in moped crime since October last year.

2:24:57 > 2:25:03Criminologist James Treadwell joins us now.

2:25:03 > 2:25:07Thank you for talking to us. We are saying that we are seeing a rise in

2:25:07 > 2:25:12crimes, at least in city centres. Does that reflect nationally?Not so

2:25:12 > 2:25:17much nationally. The moped crime rise has been a very London-based

2:25:17 > 2:25:21problem, around particular streets in London, the manifestations of

2:25:21 > 2:25:24moped and bike related crime elsewhere are slightly different. In

2:25:24 > 2:25:29the West Midlands and Manchester you get a big ride outs.Ride out?Large

2:25:29 > 2:25:38groups of motorcyclists, young bikers joining together to take over

2:25:38 > 2:25:43streets and engage in anti-social behaviour. This is very much theft

2:25:43 > 2:25:47related, targeting individuals, taking property. That is very

2:25:47 > 2:25:51London-based.Even though it is London-based, and we don't want to

2:25:51 > 2:25:53be to London centric, what people are picking up on is the start of

2:25:53 > 2:26:03this trend that is easily done in cities?Absolutely. Nowadays, in the

2:26:03 > 2:26:07mid-2000s we saw the rise of mobile phone theft because mobile phones

2:26:07 > 2:26:13have a resale value. With a range of industry mechanisms, that theft

2:26:13 > 2:26:18declined. It is on the rise again now, partly because handsets are

2:26:18 > 2:26:23going for £50 or £200 stolen, sold for parts. A lot of the bike crimes

2:26:23 > 2:26:28of thefts of mobile phones. That is part of it. Also, a generation of

2:26:28 > 2:26:34young men who grew up with bicycles are now moving to steal and use

2:26:34 > 2:26:39stolen mopeds in crime in some city centres, particularly London.You

2:26:39 > 2:26:43talked about the opportunistic element, the way people leave their

2:26:43 > 2:26:46lives. What people do, when they are walking down the street, they do

2:26:46 > 2:26:49have their phones, their computers, sitting in a cafe, they will have a

2:26:49 > 2:26:55£900 computer laptop in front of them. That is the reality. That is

2:26:55 > 2:27:00not going to change?Absolutely. One of the things we can do to combat

2:27:00 > 2:27:07this is have a better awareness, in some ways, of how we're going to be

2:27:07 > 2:27:10targeted.Hold on, why should people... You can't your life

2:27:10 > 2:27:15assuming that some bad person is going to grab your stuff, because it

2:27:15 > 2:27:18doesn't belong to them. Why shouldn't people think, why am I not

2:27:18 > 2:27:24protected better?I think there are questions about policing,

2:27:24 > 2:27:27particularly with the rise in austerity policing. You have seen

2:27:27 > 2:27:31the withdrawal of police numbers, which I think does have some impact

2:27:31 > 2:27:34on this. At the same time, I think it is also sensible crime

2:27:34 > 2:27:41prevention. When you are carrying a mobile phone, be aware of where you

2:27:41 > 2:27:43are a little bit. That is not to blame victims, but it is a very

2:27:43 > 2:27:47opportunistic crime. If you are coming out of a tube station,

2:27:47 > 2:27:50looking at your mobile phone, you might not be alerted to the fact

2:27:50 > 2:27:53that two guys on a moped are watching you. One way that we can

2:27:53 > 2:27:59prevent this is for citizens to be a bit aware of our circumstances.That

2:27:59 > 2:28:04is really interesting. Thank you very much for your time. Now it is

2:28:04 > 2:31:26time to get the news where you are this morning.

2:31:26 > 2:31:33Bye for now. this morning.

2:31:33 > 2:31:39Hello this is Breakfast, with Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty.

2:31:39 > 2:31:42The FBI is investigating how it handled a warning about the teenager

2:31:42 > 2:31:44accused of carrying out Wednesday's school shooting in Florida,

2:31:44 > 2:31:47which left 17 people dead.

2:31:47 > 2:31:50Nikolas Cruz, who's 19, reportedly posted a comment

2:31:50 > 2:31:56on YouTube claiming he would be a "professional school shooter".

2:31:56 > 2:31:59Tributes have been paid to his victims as vigils were held

2:31:59 > 2:32:04late into the night.

2:32:04 > 2:32:08Earlier we spoke to a teacher at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School

2:32:08 > 2:32:11and witnessed the attack. She was teaching when the gunman tried to

2:32:11 > 2:32:18force his way in using his gun. There was a lot of students and we

2:32:18 > 2:32:23tried to go behind my desk, behind the filing cabinet, behind the

2:32:23 > 2:32:32laptop. They tried to find cover. It was instantaneous but within seconds

2:32:32 > 2:32:40the shooter came to my door and he shot out a glass panel inside the

2:32:40 > 2:32:44door, and then hit students well he did that. We didn't know it at the

2:32:44 > 2:32:49time but he had hit several students and they were injured and I didn't

2:32:49 > 2:32:53realise at that moment. Two are female and a male student who are

2:32:53 > 2:33:01seniors and ready to go to college soon. They were killed.

2:33:01 > 2:33:06The former Oxfam director accused of hiring prostitutes in Haiti and Chad

2:33:06 > 2:33:11has denied paying for sex but says he made some mistakes. In an open

2:33:11 > 2:33:16letter Roland Van Hauwermeiren admitted he had a intimate

2:33:16 > 2:33:21relationship with a woman in Haiti but said she wasn't a prostitute.

2:33:21 > 2:33:29The head of the charity Winnie Byanyima has invited women to tell

2:33:29 > 2:33:32their story and obtain justice.

2:33:32 > 2:33:35The Football Association is to review thousands of files

2:33:35 > 2:33:38to find out how much was known about the abuse carried out

2:33:38 > 2:33:40by former youth coach Barry Bennell, as part of its internal review.

2:33:40 > 2:33:44This week he's been found guilty of a total of 43 sexual offences

2:33:44 > 2:33:45between 1979 and 1990.

2:33:45 > 2:33:46He'll be sentenced on Monday.

2:33:46 > 2:33:48An investigation by the BBC has found a significant difference

2:33:48 > 2:33:50between the earnings of male and female consultants working

2:33:50 > 2:33:53for the NHS in England.

2:33:53 > 2:33:55Figures showed men working full-time earned on-average 14 thousand pounds

2:33:55 > 2:33:58per year more than their female counterparts when you include

2:33:58 > 2:34:00bonuses and overtime, with only 5% of women among

2:34:00 > 2:34:05the top 100 earners.

2:34:05 > 2:34:07The Department of Health says it's committed to ensuring doctors

2:34:07 > 2:34:13are rewarded fairly and equally regardless of gender.

2:34:13 > 2:34:14The Hollywood actress Jennifer Aniston has announced

2:34:14 > 2:34:17she is to separate from her husband Justin Theroux after

2:34:17 > 2:34:18two years of marriage.

2:34:18 > 2:34:20The pair, who were married in a secret ceremony

2:34:20 > 2:34:23in Los Angeles in 2015, reportedly met on the set

2:34:23 > 2:34:26of comedy film Wanderlust.

2:34:26 > 2:34:30They gave no reason for the split but said it was a mutual decision

2:34:30 > 2:34:35which had been "lovingly made" at the end of last year.

2:34:35 > 2:34:36That brings you up to date.

2:34:36 > 2:34:44Victoria Derbyshire is on at nine o'clock this morning on BBC Two.

2:34:44 > 2:34:48Let's find out what's on the programme today.

2:34:48 > 2:34:51Serious questions for two professional football clubs. Could

2:34:51 > 2:34:56more have been done to protect dozens of young players from

2:34:56 > 2:35:00horrific sexual abuse? It comes after their ex-coach was found

2:35:00 > 2:35:06guilty of 43 offences against 11 boys between 1979 and 1991. Will

2:35:06 > 2:35:11speak exclusively to three men who gave evidence in the trial, and to

2:35:11 > 2:35:14the ex-player who lifted the lid on the abuse in the first place. Join

2:35:14 > 2:35:18us on the BBC News Channel and online.

2:35:18 > 2:35:20Still to come on Breakfast this morning.

2:35:20 > 2:35:21Could she be about to make history?

2:35:21 > 2:35:24Lizzie Yarnold bids to become the first British athlete to retain

2:35:24 > 2:35:25Winter Olympics title.

2:35:25 > 2:35:30We'll speak to her as she goes for Gold in the women's skeleton.

2:35:30 > 2:35:31It's back to school for us.

2:35:31 > 2:35:34The UK is lagging behind when it comes to Maths.

2:35:34 > 2:35:36We'll be looking at what's being done to try and get us

2:35:36 > 2:35:39to the top of the class.

2:35:39 > 2:35:42And taking a maths challenge of our own.

2:35:42 > 2:35:47"Kung hei fat choy" Happy Chinese New Year.

2:35:47 > 2:35:492018 is the Year of the Dog.

2:35:49 > 2:35:57We'll bring you some of the colour ahead of celebrations across the UK.

2:36:01 > 2:36:12The year of the dog, you were a...A tiger. I think!A rat. No, a snake!

2:36:12 > 2:36:16Someone else in the office was a rat which is quite a good thing.I was a

2:36:16 > 2:36:22rabbit.It's important this morning because in the early hours of this

2:36:22 > 2:36:29morning an event happened and we have a medal. Dominic Parsons,

2:36:29 > 2:36:33fantastic performance getting Britain's first medal at the Winter

2:36:33 > 2:36:38Olympics. Thank goodness skeleton came back into the Olympics in 2002.

2:36:38 > 2:36:43Since then Britain have been really strong with the women in 2006, four

2:36:43 > 2:36:49years ago Lizzy Yarnold and now a certain Dominic Parsons.

2:36:49 > 2:36:56Lets get their reaction from the man himself and join Katherine Downes.

2:36:56 > 2:37:00He doesn't have his bronze medal just yet but he will get his hands

2:37:00 > 2:37:05on it later on this evening. I've had to wrestle those hands from a

2:37:05 > 2:37:08large burger which he hardly deserves. You hadn't eaten anything

2:37:08 > 2:37:13so we did get you a burger as a congratulations gift. How does it

2:37:13 > 2:37:19feel to be an Olympic bronze medallist?I did think it will sink

2:37:19 > 2:37:25in for a while. -- I don't think it will sink in. I haven't realised

2:37:25 > 2:37:31what I've done yet.You don't think anyone will say you've got the

2:37:31 > 2:37:38result from, it's not you?Either that or I will wake up and haversack

2:37:38 > 2:37:43and race day-to-day.You had two more runs to go today, how did you

2:37:43 > 2:37:46sleep last night knowing that a good performance today would see you on

2:37:46 > 2:37:52the Olympic podium?I was exhausted by the time I went to bed last night

2:37:52 > 2:37:59so I didn't have any problem with that. My roommate is a notorious

2:37:59 > 2:38:03snorer. He started off OK but he got louder and louder as the Olympics

2:38:03 > 2:38:10went on. I've been wearing earplugs with noise cancelling headphones.

2:38:10 > 2:38:14Waking up a couple of times in the night with very sweaty in years but

2:38:14 > 2:38:20apart from that I got a reasonable sleep.Talk us through the run that

2:38:20 > 2:38:26meant you got the medal. Actually it wasn't the run that you needed

2:38:26 > 2:38:28because Nikita Tregubov had jumped above you into the silver medal

2:38:28 > 2:38:32position. You were down in third and any mistakes could have seen you out

2:38:32 > 2:38:43of a medal.I made a couple of mistakes on that run. Nikita had

2:38:43 > 2:38:48four very consistent runs all around 50.5 apart from the first one. I

2:38:48 > 2:38:53managed to catch him with a couple of runs so I just got ahead of him

2:38:53 > 2:38:57by a couple of hundredths. It was really tight between Martins Dukurs,

2:38:57 > 2:39:03myself and him. I made a couple of mistakes from corn at nine to 12 and

2:39:03 > 2:39:07then again from 13 to 14 which basically put the nail in the coffin

2:39:07 > 2:39:13and meant I came down behind Nikita and I thought had blown it.What did

2:39:13 > 2:39:18it feel like to know I was so close but now I think I haven't done it?I

2:39:18 > 2:39:24was gutted. I saw the number two on the board and my time of 50.6 wasn't

2:39:24 > 2:39:31good enough. I hit the mats and didn't really want to move from

2:39:31 > 2:39:37there, just keep my head down...It turns out Martins Dukurs' misfortune

2:39:37 > 2:39:42was the twist of luck you need it. Tell me about that moment, the

2:39:42 > 2:39:49moment you realised you had won an Olympic medal.I will still may a

2:39:49 > 2:39:56bit about the run when Martins was going down. I was standing next to

2:39:56 > 2:40:07Nikita and saw a three next Martins' name. I said, is that -- does that

2:40:07 > 2:40:12mean I'm ahead of Martins?But you are the Olympic bronze medallist!

2:40:12 > 2:40:15You'll be told numerous times over the next few hours because you will

2:40:15 > 2:40:21get your medal. How will it feel to have it hung around your neck?Maybe

2:40:21 > 2:40:25that will help it sink in. I'll wait until that moment before I believe

2:40:25 > 2:40:30it.We've got Lizzy Yarnold and Laura Deas sliding as well, and your

2:40:30 > 2:40:34girlfriend competing as well. Will you be heading up to the Sliding

2:40:34 > 2:40:40Centre later?Yes. Our medal ceremony is just before the girls

2:40:40 > 2:40:45race starts so be trying to get up there after I've got my medal and

2:40:45 > 2:40:49shout myself forth trying to help them go faster.Do you think will

2:40:49 > 2:40:53see another women's medal? Laura Deas has been topping the time

2:40:53 > 2:40:57sheets, what are your predictions for the women's competition?Laura

2:40:57 > 2:41:02and Lizzie have been doing really well in training and there's a good

2:41:02 > 2:41:06chance for both of them to get a medal. I'll shout as loud as I can.

2:41:06 > 2:41:11It would be nice not to be the only Team GB Winter Olympic medallist.

2:41:11 > 2:41:15Thank you for joining us and congratulations. Enjoy the ceremony

2:41:15 > 2:41:21later. We have our first medallist of the Winter Olympics, Dom Parsons

2:41:21 > 2:41:35in the men's skeleton. APPLAUSE STUDIO:

2:41:35 > 2:41:38STUDIO: Dom seems very composed. You never know how Olympic champions are

2:41:38 > 2:41:45going to be. He seems very, very chilled.I think there's an aliment

2:41:45 > 2:41:51of Dom that's still in shock. It was a rather unexpected bronze medal --

2:41:51 > 2:41:57an element that is still in shock. On top of that, he won his medal in

2:41:57 > 2:42:02the early hours of the morning back home in the UK. He had to go through

2:42:02 > 2:42:05doping, he hasn't had anything to eat. I think it's still just sinking

2:42:05 > 2:42:12in.STUDIO: I'm sure he's also exhausted, having a roommate to

2:42:12 > 2:42:17snort!

2:42:19 > 2:42:27snort! -- who snored. Later, in about 20 minutes, we'll hear from

2:42:27 > 2:42:31Lizzy Yarnold because she can make history by becoming the first Briton

2:42:31 > 2:42:35ever to retain a Winter Olympic title. Her first run is on the BBC

2:42:35 > 2:42:42at 11:20am. It won't finish until tomorrow when we'll know whether she

2:42:42 > 2:42:51can retain her title. Laura Deas as well. Super Saturday potentially.

2:42:53 > 2:42:58Perhaps you're off out at some point today. Perhaps you'll be taking a

2:42:58 > 2:43:08bath. -- taking

2:43:08 > 2:43:08bath. -- taking a bus.

2:43:08 > 2:43:10Feel like you're waiting longer for a bus these days?

2:43:10 > 2:43:11You're probably right.

2:43:11 > 2:43:12Ben's looking at why.

2:43:12 > 2:43:16We take twice as many bus trips than we do train journeys every year

2:43:16 > 2:43:18and they're a vital lifeline for many people.

2:43:18 > 2:43:19But our bus network is shrinking fast.

2:43:19 > 2:43:22BBC research shows that last year buses in the UK clocked up

2:43:22 > 2:43:23the fewest miles since the 1980s.

2:43:23 > 2:43:26The network has lost 134 million miles, that's a fall of 8%

2:43:26 > 2:43:33over the last ten years.

2:43:33 > 2:43:35That's the equivalent to 5,000 times around the equator.

2:43:35 > 2:43:40But, at the same time, passenger numbers are up by 0.7%.

2:43:40 > 2:43:43David Sidebottom is from Transport Focus,

2:43:43 > 2:43:48an independent transport watchdog.

2:43:48 > 2:43:56Good morning. Why? Why this fall bus services?It's been a perfect storm.

2:43:56 > 2:44:03Congestion in the big cities mean that bus operators need to put more

2:44:03 > 2:44:06buses on for a reliable service which means you pay more for a

2:44:06 > 2:44:10slower journey. We are using buses in different ways, out-of-town

2:44:10 > 2:44:16shopping and internet shopping mean people are going shopping less.

2:44:16 > 2:44:20Companies are having to prop up rural services. Those are the

2:44:20 > 2:44:25reasons for the big decline.The finger of blame is always pointed at

2:44:25 > 2:44:28local authorities because they subsidise some of those routes that

2:44:28 > 2:44:32aren't particularly profitable but are vital for people who live in

2:44:32 > 2:44:36more remote areas.Absolutely. They've been propping them up for

2:44:36 > 2:44:40the last six or seven years and their budgets have become a lot

2:44:40 > 2:44:43tighter. Also commercial bus operators have got to modernise

2:44:43 > 2:44:51their service. We published some research last week on this.Who is

2:44:51 > 2:44:54most vulnerable? I imagine it's young people going to school or

2:44:54 > 2:44:58college and older people.Yes. If you look at the two big groups of

2:44:58 > 2:45:10people who use buses, the biggest group is 14-19 -year-olds.

2:45:10 > 2:45:15group is 14-19 -year-olds. They say make it simple, plan my journey,

2:45:15 > 2:45:18where I'm travelling on my journey at the time. Get it right for those

2:45:18 > 2:45:29people, they are the passengers of tomorrow.

2:45:29 > 2:45:32What can local authorities do to make it more attractive to take the

2:45:32 > 2:45:36bus without it costing more money? In some areas of the country it is

2:45:36 > 2:45:39more adversarial in terms of relationship. The local highways,

2:45:39 > 2:45:42politicians, there are good examples of where buses work very well, the

2:45:42 > 2:45:44West Midlands and Liverpool, Reading and other parts of the country, a

2:45:44 > 2:45:48lot of focus on what is right for the passenger, get the service

2:45:48 > 2:45:51reliable and punctual and more people will use it.How easy is it

2:45:51 > 2:45:56to say, let's put in a bus lane to get around congestion? It does not

2:45:56 > 2:46:08cost the council much to segregated but

2:46:19 > 2:46:22there is politics involved? We have seen in some cities like Liverpool a

2:46:22 > 2:46:25few years ago they removed bus lanes, it is a political decision

2:46:25 > 2:46:27but what passengers tell us all the time, punctual, reliable service,

2:46:27 > 2:46:29good value for money and modernise it so people can pay by contact, it

2:46:29 > 2:46:33is only just coming in some areas now, modernise the service. Is there

2:46:33 > 2:46:35a danger this is a downward spiral? Is there any incentive things might

2:46:35 > 2:46:37pick up and we see buses making a comeback?There are good examples,

2:46:37 > 2:46:40we know for our research, in some areas 90% of passengers are

2:46:40 > 2:46:42satisfied with their journey. Share the best practice, look at how to do

2:46:42 > 2:46:49this. There is competition out there from the car, from the Uber-style

2:46:49 > 2:46:52service. People should get together and look at where the market is,

2:46:52 > 2:46:57young people particularly. Interesting as far as young people

2:46:57 > 2:47:00and those who really do rely on it. Thank you very much.

2:47:00 > 2:47:10You are up-to-date with all the business, see you very soon.

2:47:10 > 2:47:20Happy New Year! I don't know what the reply is!

2:47:20 > 2:47:26Thank you! How does it go again?

2:47:32 > 2:47:40Kung hei fat choy! Have a look outside the building

2:47:40 > 2:47:49now? It is a dragon! Because it is the year of the Dragon this year.

2:47:49 > 2:47:52You will be telling us all about it in a minute. It is a beautiful day

2:47:52 > 2:47:58out there. There is frost on the ground in Oxfordshire this morning,

2:47:58 > 2:48:05there has been, I don't know if it is melting yet. Look at the view in

2:48:05 > 2:48:08Oxfordshire from Blenheim Palace, does that of view at the moment but

2:48:08 > 2:48:13Matt is down there, tackling the weather and that maths on that we

2:48:13 > 2:48:17gave you earlier!

2:48:17 > 2:48:18I

2:48:18 > 2:48:22will give you the answer to that at the end! It has been a stunning

2:48:22 > 2:48:27start to a Friday morning, it has been a little bit cold, the grounds

2:48:27 > 2:48:33around Blenheim Palace stretch 2000 acres in fact. The Queen's pond

2:48:33 > 2:48:36behind, named for Elisabeth the first, and you will notice the frost

2:48:36 > 2:48:43is melting, the sun getting to work. We have got about ten hours of

2:48:43 > 2:48:46daylight at the moment here in Oxfordshire, up an hour and a half

2:48:46 > 2:48:53from where we were a month ago and we will see sunshine daylight

2:48:53 > 2:48:56increase by three minutes every day at the moment. So spring gives

2:48:56 > 2:49:03around the corner and temperatures will lift a

2:49:03 > 2:49:06around the corner and temperatures will lift a touch. A fine day ahead

2:49:06 > 2:49:10for most which I was to the north and west, you can see them on the

2:49:10 > 2:49:15chart.

2:49:15 > 2:49:21chart. Not as many showers across other parts of western England and

2:49:21 > 2:49:25Wales but the sunshine will turn hazy, Fermanagh could see the odd

2:49:25 > 2:49:33shower through the day, the same for north and Western parts of Scotland.

2:49:33 > 2:49:39But the wind is lighter than yesterday and would you have got the

2:49:39 > 2:49:46wind and the strengthening sun, it will feel particularly pleasant. We

2:49:46 > 2:49:50will see rain across parts of Scotland, Northern Ireland, some of

2:49:50 > 2:49:53which will be heavy with health snow as well, that works its way into

2:49:53 > 2:49:58northern England and Wales. Where you see showers tonight in Scotland

2:49:58 > 2:50:07and Northern Ireland it could be ICN to Saturday. More cloud tomorrow

2:50:07 > 2:50:13than today, they could bring rain and hail snow spreading towards the

2:50:13 > 2:50:16Midlands. North and west will see some sunny spells, one or two

2:50:16 > 2:50:23showers. Not as much frost to take us through Saturday night into

2:50:23 > 2:50:27Sunday because we will see the cloud increase through Saturday night

2:50:27 > 2:50:31across many western areas. Eastern areas will stay clear for a time and

2:50:31 > 2:50:35there could be an outside chance of frost but into Sunday more cloud

2:50:35 > 2:50:39generally speaking across the country, it will turn grey across

2:50:39 > 2:50:42the western half of the UK as well without breaks a rain and drizzle

2:50:42 > 2:50:46developing, heavy bursts on the hills, brightest conditions lasting

2:50:46 > 2:50:58longer is to the east of the country but notice that

2:51:08 > 2:51:11Ambridge how it is looking here at Blenheim Palace and, Naga and

2:51:11 > 2:51:14Charlie, I have been working the rain muscles this morning for you.

2:51:14 > 2:51:20And we will get the answer for you in a little while because we need to

2:51:20 > 2:51:23explain the conundrum and why we have been talking about maths so we

2:51:23 > 2:51:26will come back to you, if that is OK, in a few minutes.

2:51:26 > 2:51:28No problem!

2:51:28 > 2:51:30It's 30 years since GCSEs were introduced in England,

2:51:30 > 2:51:32Wales and Northern Ireland, but there's still one

2:51:32 > 2:51:40subject that remains tricky for many people - maths.

2:51:41 > 2:51:42And we will find out

2:51:42 > 2:51:45And we will find out if Matt has been finding it tricky as well.

2:51:45 > 2:51:47Our teenagers rank 27th in the world, and that poor performance

2:51:47 > 2:51:48continues into adulthood.

2:51:48 > 2:51:51We're launching a special series to try to find out,

2:51:51 > 2:51:54and to show that maths can be interesting - and even fun.

2:51:54 > 2:51:55Breakfast's Jayne McCubbin and Tim Muffet, and Naga,

2:51:55 > 2:51:58will be taking their maths GCSE this summer!

2:51:58 > 2:52:02Do you know the date? Have you got it all pencilled in?

2:52:02 > 2:52:05There are three dates firmly put in my calendar.

2:52:05 > 2:52:12Let's see the first lesson.

2:52:12 > 2:52:14# Up in the morning and out to school...#

2:52:14 > 2:52:15We're going back to school.

2:52:15 > 2:52:17# American history and practical math...#

2:52:17 > 2:52:23I never knew what this was for.

2:52:23 > 2:52:25What do I remember from my maths days...?

2:52:25 > 2:52:27I remember Rick Astley was number one.

2:52:27 > 2:52:28I remember phones the size of house bricks.

2:52:28 > 2:52:30I can't remember much maths, though.

2:52:30 > 2:52:33I love learning every day, so if anything I'm going to get

2:52:33 > 2:52:35to sharpen the old brain and probably really appreciate

2:52:35 > 2:52:37just how tough it is.

2:52:37 > 2:52:44# If you can find a seat...#

2:52:44 > 2:52:45Good morning.

2:52:45 > 2:52:48My name's Mr Seagull and I'm going to be your maths teacher

2:52:48 > 2:52:49throughout your GCSE course.

2:52:49 > 2:52:50ALL: Good morning, Mr Seagull.

2:52:50 > 2:52:53So you may remember me from University Challenge...

2:52:53 > 2:52:54HOST:Emmanuel, Seagull?

2:52:54 > 2:52:56Tchaikovsky?

2:52:56 > 2:52:58Currently, I'm doing a doctorate in maths education

2:52:58 > 2:52:59at Cambridge University, researching maths anxiety.

2:52:59 > 2:53:02In four months' time, you're going to be sitting

2:53:02 > 2:53:08the maths GCSE...for real.

2:53:08 > 2:53:11So I set you a challenge of doing a past GCSE paper.

2:53:11 > 2:53:12How did you find the papers?

2:53:12 > 2:53:14Really bad.

2:53:14 > 2:53:18Really, really, really bad.

2:53:18 > 2:53:23For me, it was just remembering what...

2:53:23 > 2:53:29I mean, "Expand and simplify m+7, m+3."

2:53:29 > 2:53:30What does "expand and simplify" mean?

2:53:30 > 2:53:32It's just terminology which I haven't used

2:53:32 > 2:53:33for like 30 odd years.

2:53:33 > 2:53:36Hearing you say that is already making me feel a bit nervous.

2:53:36 > 2:53:38What did I get at school for maths in old money?

2:53:38 > 2:53:43O-level, D.

2:53:43 > 2:53:47I hope, at the end of it, it will mean I can help my kids a bit more.

2:53:47 > 2:53:50I quite enjoyed remembering some of the maths I used to do.

2:53:50 > 2:53:51I loved algebra.

2:53:51 > 2:53:58You such as what, Naga.

2:54:03 > 2:54:05-- such a swot.

2:54:05 > 2:54:08I did my maths GCSE a couple of years early and got an A.

2:54:08 > 2:54:09I always loved maths, but, I'll be honest,

2:54:09 > 2:54:11I haven't seen a maths paper in years.

2:54:11 > 2:54:13What was the point of Pi?

2:54:13 > 2:54:15It's how you measure the area of a circle

2:54:15 > 2:54:16and the circumference of a circle.

2:54:16 > 2:54:17OK, class, Pythagoras theorem.

2:54:17 > 2:54:19Can anyone tell me the name?

2:54:19 > 2:54:20Naga?

2:54:20 > 2:54:26Hypotenuse.

2:54:26 > 2:54:29So, Jane, do you know what A-squared is, if A is 3cm?

2:54:29 > 2:54:30Nine.

2:54:30 > 2:54:31Perfect.

2:54:31 > 2:54:33I know I shouldn't be thinking this, but I'm thinking

2:54:33 > 2:54:35I haven't got a maths brain.

2:54:35 > 2:54:36I'm not built for maths.

2:54:36 > 2:54:38There's no such thing as a maths brain.

2:54:38 > 2:54:40I think people have a negative or positive maths experiences

2:54:40 > 2:54:43and that leads them to think they can or can't do maths.

2:54:43 > 2:54:49How important is it for parents to not give off this message of -

2:54:49 > 2:54:51"Oh, I'm terrible at maths, I don't really understand it?"

2:54:51 > 2:54:5450% of working age adults in England and Wales have the numeracy skills

2:54:54 > 2:54:56you would expect of an 11-year-old.

2:54:56 > 2:54:58So when their kids come and ask them for help,

2:54:58 > 2:55:00they haven't got a clue.

2:55:00 > 2:55:02And if we're going to change the way numbers and maths

2:55:02 > 2:55:04are perceived in the country, we have to work with kids

2:55:04 > 2:55:06and adults as well.

2:55:06 > 2:55:07I think we're going to enjoy it.

2:55:07 > 2:55:09I'm going to be the positive one.

2:55:09 > 2:55:12I wonder if I'm just beyond that point in my life and it's too late.

2:55:12 > 2:55:14We can do this, Tim.

2:55:14 > 2:55:15We can do this.

2:55:15 > 2:55:17One theorem down, 58 to go.

2:55:17 > 2:55:18Can we do it?

2:55:18 > 2:55:26Yes, we can!

2:55:27 > 2:55:32So let's go into the classroom now. Jane is there are you comfortable

2:55:32 > 2:55:40with your maths? Can we do it? I hope so! I'm not

2:55:40 > 2:55:46confident yet! I'm not confident yet! Is blinking dogs, roosters and

2:55:46 > 2:55:51monkeys thing is giving me nightmares, before we even get onto

2:55:51 > 2:55:55the GCSE! Anyway, let me introduce everybody from the primary school,

2:55:55 > 2:56:02good morning!Good morning!That is nice and loud. I was saying before

2:56:02 > 2:56:06that they do things special here, they are one of 35 maths hubs in the

2:56:06 > 2:56:10country where they are about the mastery of maps and one of the

2:56:10 > 2:56:14techniques is to use props and things like this to bring it all to

2:56:14 > 2:56:18life. Don't go down to close because we have been working out the dogs

2:56:18 > 2:56:25roosters thing here. Using props to bring it alive. I want to introduce

2:56:25 > 2:56:33to Sima, one of the parents. You, like me, have a touch of maths

2:56:33 > 2:56:37anxiety, is that right?As far as I can remember I was never great at

2:56:37 > 2:56:42maths, and I always had a phobia of maps. Even now, my boys, whenever

2:56:42 > 2:56:49they want help for maths, I go and hire it.But not now, you are

2:56:49 > 2:56:56working with the school to turn this around. What are you doing?It is

2:56:56 > 2:57:00going great because it has helped me realise that unless I have a

2:57:00 > 2:57:02positive attitude to maths it will not help my kids, so it is getting

2:57:02 > 2:57:07better, not there yet but getting there.Getting better. Thank you so

2:57:07 > 2:57:12much for your time. I am going to introduce Mike from National

2:57:12 > 2:57:15Numeracy and this is important to you that parents are not allowed to

2:57:15 > 2:57:21say, I can't do it, I don't have a maths brain?That is right, we are

2:57:21 > 2:57:26trying to enable everybody, parent or not, to be confident to use

2:57:26 > 2:57:28numbers and data, make good decisions in daily life. We all

2:57:28 > 2:57:37carry around this small computing pad, bigger than it had to get to

2:57:37 > 2:57:40the moon, so we want to empower people to think about maths for all

2:57:40 > 2:57:48sorts of things. So when you hear people say, I don't have a maths

2:57:48 > 2:57:52brain, what do you think ayes if there is such a thing as a maths

2:57:52 > 2:57:57gene, we have all got it, so we want to move from, I can't do maths, too,

2:57:57 > 2:58:02we are all numbers people. I hope you are right! I have got my maths

2:58:02 > 2:58:09GCSE coming up! Let's chat now to Ms Winfield, Nicole. You are bringing

2:58:09 > 2:58:17maths alive through these props. How is it changing things here? We are

2:58:17 > 2:58:20adopting teaching and mastery approaches so we want them to

2:58:20 > 2:58:26acquire a deep, long-term, adaptable understanding of the maths, looking

2:58:26 > 2:58:28at using manipulative and representation so that every child

2:58:28 > 2:58:32has access into their mathematics and there is nobody in the classroom

2:58:32 > 2:58:36that says, I can't do it. It is a mindset shift of us as teachers

2:58:36 > 2:58:40which hopefully will feed off to the children as well. This is

2:58:40 > 2:58:47interesting for me and Naga as well, and Tim, doing our maths GCSE. Naga,

2:58:47 > 2:58:51for you, when you were at school, while I was bottom of the class, you

2:58:51 > 2:58:55were at the top of the class, so much that sometimes you were left

2:58:55 > 2:58:58behind because people were not bringing you along with them. What

2:58:58 > 2:59:03is interesting in this school is that nobody ever moves onto the next

2:59:03 > 2:59:07step until everybody has mastered the basics, but that does not mean

2:59:07 > 2:59:13the people at the top left behind, it means they work on deeper

2:59:13 > 2:59:16understanding, like you guys here. Tell me what you go through when you

2:59:16 > 2:59:24are doing these sums every day? This is where you explain to your partner

2:59:24 > 2:59:29how you got your answer. These are the convince me glasses where you

2:59:29 > 2:59:32convince your partner you are correct and they are incorrect.

2:59:32 > 2:59:35These are the use it glasses to use the same method in a different

2:59:35 > 2:59:41problem. These are the prove it glasses to prove it in another

2:59:41 > 2:59:46representation. Naga and Tim, if you are watching, this is what we are

2:59:46 > 3:00:01going to do, we are going to prove that we can do it, Mr Segal!

3:00:01 > 3:00:04that we can do it, Mr Segal! And Mr Seagull is sitting here with us. Can

3:00:04 > 3:00:10you explain the problem and we will see if Matt worked it out?It is in

3:00:10 > 3:00:14honour of Chinese New Year. There is a handover party for the top dogs,

3:00:14 > 3:00:20top roosters and top monkeys. There are twice as many dogs as roosters

3:00:20 > 3:00:26and twice as many roosters as monkeys. So assuming that all the

3:00:26 > 3:00:31dogs have four feet and the roosters and monkeys have two feet, if there

3:00:31 > 3:00:36are 88 animal feed at the party, how many dogs, roosters and monkeys are

3:00:36 > 3:00:40their?And we won't even talk about what the punch tasted like! Let's

3:00:40 > 3:00:44find out from Matt if you managed to figure it out, we have had a lot of

3:00:44 > 3:00:49people message as today with their answers and, Matt, looking gorgeous

3:00:49 > 3:00:56down in Blenheim, did you manage to figure it out?

3:00:56 > 3:01:0324 bananas, 13 pairs and 16 aubergines.Well done! You get a

3:01:03 > 3:01:08mark for enthusiasm!We did get it, we put our heads together and we

3:01:08 > 3:01:16think we've got the right answer. What is the answer?We think it's 16

3:01:16 > 3:01:26dogs, eight monkeys and four roosters.Switch it round. It's one

3:01:26 > 3:01:31you can do but it can seem so daunting when you're faced with

3:01:31 > 3:01:35something like that.I think with maps it can seem a daunting subject

3:01:35 > 3:01:39but the way to approach it is to break things down into a simple

3:01:39 > 3:01:46method.I'm entirely on board with the positive message. I always find

3:01:46 > 3:01:49there's more questions than answers. I want to know how many cheese

3:01:49 > 3:01:57footballs were at the party. I'm one of those people who feels like I

3:01:57 > 3:02:00have to step aside from it. I know that people like you say that there

3:02:00 > 3:02:06is no one who is not good at maths, it's just about bad experiences, and

3:02:06 > 3:02:10I think that is absolutely true. It's a conversation we need to be

3:02:10 > 3:02:15having up and down the country. It's our attitude towards mathematics

3:02:15 > 3:02:22that has to change. There is a spectrum of abilities. But all of us

3:02:22 > 3:02:27can reach a stage of mathematical competency.This was an issue about

3:02:27 > 3:02:34ratios, but trigonometry, I don't use that. Why do I need to learn

3:02:34 > 3:02:42about things like that?Some people might ask what is trigonometry?It's

3:02:42 > 3:02:48about question. My students often ask me when do I need to use this. A

3:02:48 > 3:02:52lot of maps obviously develops your thinking skills, but also we are

3:02:52 > 3:02:57humans. What differentiates us from the monkeys and roosters is we are

3:02:57 > 3:03:00an intellectual species, we like to explore creative thought. Why do we

3:03:00 > 3:03:05create music and art? Because we can. The same thing with

3:03:05 > 3:03:13mathematics.What was your impression of the class, our three

3:03:13 > 3:03:18contestants?Not contestants, we are not competing.What did you make of

3:03:18 > 3:03:23the atmosphere in the room?I think they are ready for the challenge.

3:03:23 > 3:03:31May the 27th, it's nearly 100 days away.Is quite a real classroom

3:03:31 > 3:03:35experience you are replicating. I think I'm right in saying that Jane

3:03:35 > 3:03:39is the one that feels the most challenged. Your thinking I love it.

3:03:39 > 3:03:44That's a big starting point. You were saying in the schools you

3:03:44 > 3:03:49teach, you have that. You experience that every day as a teacher.As a

3:03:49 > 3:03:55teacher your job is to make sure you can support the students at

3:03:55 > 3:03:59entry-level. That's the joy and beauty of teaching.It makes a

3:03:59 > 3:04:06massive difference being taught by an enthusiastic teacher. Thank you.

3:04:06 > 3:04:11We would love you to get involved in our maths series.

3:04:11 > 3:04:13Bobby's maths puzzle is on our Twitter page.

3:04:13 > 3:04:17And if you want to find out the answer and try a GCSE

3:04:17 > 3:04:19maths question yourself, go to the BBC Bitesize's revision

3:04:19 > 3:04:21page on bbc.co.uk/mindset and click on the Breakfast logo.

3:04:21 > 3:04:23Let's take a last, brief look at the headlines

3:04:23 > 3:04:23where you are this morning.

3:04:23 > 3:06:00where you are this morning.

3:06:00 > 3:06:01on your screen there.

3:06:01 > 3:06:09Now it's back to Charley and Naga.

3:06:09 > 3:06:14Welcome back.

3:06:14 > 3:06:15Welcome back.

3:06:15 > 3:06:17Today, Lizzy Yarnold will start her quest to become

3:06:17 > 3:06:20the first Briton ever to retain a Winter Olympic title.

3:06:20 > 3:06:22She's been building up to this all winter, and Mike went

3:06:22 > 3:06:28to meet her during a World Cup event in Germany.

3:06:28 > 3:06:30Back on top of the mountain where Lizzy Yarnold has spent

3:06:30 > 3:06:33the winter preparing for her shot at Olympic history.

3:06:33 > 3:06:34Ah-ha!

3:06:34 > 3:06:35Hi, Lizzy!

3:06:35 > 3:06:36How are you?

3:06:36 > 3:06:39Over tea in her hotel apartment, I met the sled that now

3:06:39 > 3:06:44carries her dreams.

3:06:44 > 3:06:46I had no idea how heavy that is, my goodness!

3:06:46 > 3:06:48I suppose you just develop the strength.

3:06:48 > 3:06:51Yeah, you have a knack for how to pick it up.

3:06:51 > 3:06:54As the moment arrives she's actually been thinking about since winning

3:06:54 > 3:06:57gold in Sochi four years ago.

3:06:57 > 3:07:00It's this big hairy goal I had as soon as I finished in Sochi that

3:07:00 > 3:07:04I would absolutely love to be selected for another Olympic Games,

3:07:04 > 3:07:07but to be the first British Winter Olympian

3:07:07 > 3:07:11to retain my title would be making history.

3:07:11 > 3:07:14For Lizzy Yarnold and the other athletes here it is just about that

3:07:14 > 3:07:18minute when they throw themselves down the tunnel of ice and 90 mph,

3:07:18 > 3:07:22but before the Winter Olympics they'll have been on the road for 16

3:07:22 > 3:07:27weeks away from home putting up with the most hostile and coldest

3:07:27 > 3:07:30conditions you can imagine, just trying to keep warm for hours on end

3:07:30 > 3:07:32before it's finally their turn.

3:07:32 > 3:07:36It's one reason Lizzy decided to take a break,

3:07:36 > 3:07:39a whole year away from the sport, even if it was then a shock

3:07:39 > 3:07:40when she returned.

3:07:40 > 3:07:43I was doing cycling and running and all these different sports

3:07:43 > 3:07:46thinking I was physically fit and then getting back on a sled

3:07:46 > 3:07:50was really overwhelming.

3:07:50 > 3:07:54You know, the sensation of your body rattling the whole way down.

3:07:54 > 3:07:56You know, when I visualised practice being back on the sled,

3:07:56 > 3:08:00I didn't envisage the bums.

3:08:00 > 3:08:01--I didn't envisage the bumps.

3:08:01 > 3:08:05I got a taste of the pain your body goes through when I went down

3:08:05 > 3:08:07the track in Winterberg in Germany in the relative comfort

3:08:07 > 3:08:08of a bobsled.

3:08:08 > 3:08:11In a skeleton you're much more exposed with your face inches away

3:08:11 > 3:08:12from the ice.

3:08:12 > 3:08:15You'll go down the track with your head completely looking

3:08:15 > 3:08:17forward and you can see what's going on.

3:08:17 > 3:08:19But as the speed picks up and the G-forces pick up,

3:08:19 > 3:08:21you head is pulled down onto the ice.

3:08:21 > 3:08:25You could be going, you know, five G-forces so your head comes

3:08:25 > 3:08:29down and is bumping on the ice, so you have to learn to pick up

3:08:29 > 3:08:31different shades of white.

3:08:31 > 3:08:32It's a good fun game of trying to piece everything together

3:08:32 > 3:08:33down the track.

3:08:33 > 3:08:36Fun is one word for it, but actually having fun

3:08:36 > 3:08:39with her mates was how it started for Lizzy on a mattress

3:08:39 > 3:08:42in a school playing field.

3:08:42 > 3:08:44Whenever it snowed we would, like, we had gap students,

3:08:44 > 3:08:45we'd take their mattresses.

3:08:45 > 3:08:47I was doing it from a really early age.

3:08:47 > 3:08:48On the mattresses?

3:08:48 > 3:08:51Yeah, on the mattresses, then one of gappies broke their arm

3:08:51 > 3:08:52and then that got banned.

3:08:52 > 3:08:59I think the past 18 months has been very up and down but I really

3:08:59 > 3:09:04wouldn't want it any other way, I wanted to come back and go

3:09:04 > 3:09:08into Pyeongchang a lot more under my own steam and I think I'm

3:09:08 > 3:09:15really looking forward to us all kind of trying to do it again.

3:09:18 > 3:09:23The determination is there and we wish Lizzy Yarnold all the best.

3:09:23 > 3:09:27Also, happy New Year.

3:09:27 > 3:09:29Today billions of people around the world will be

3:09:29 > 3:09:32celebrating Chinese New Year.

3:09:32 > 3:09:352018 is the Year of the Dog and, according to the Chinese Zodiac,

3:09:35 > 3:09:38the dog is a true companion, associated with loyalty,

3:09:38 > 3:09:39honesty and intelligence.

3:09:39 > 3:09:47Charlie's headed out of the studio this morning to find out more.

3:09:50 > 3:09:55We are out in the bright sunshine here and the Golden Dragon behind,

3:09:55 > 3:09:58I'm just going to pick up because Mike is having a look around as

3:09:58 > 3:10:04well. Just a quick thought about Lizzy Yarnold?Fantastic. Lizzy

3:10:04 > 3:10:08Yarnold can make history today. 11:20am is her first run and then

3:10:08 > 3:10:12two more tomorrow morning. She hadn't been in great form until this

3:10:12 > 3:10:21week. Do you know why it's funny? Because the Dragon controls rainfall

3:10:21 > 3:10:25and water and it prevents, or if you want it to it can bring rainfall or

3:10:25 > 3:10:32sunshine., over this way and let's meet a couple of people. Good

3:10:32 > 3:10:40morning. As we look at the Golden Dragon, talk us through some of the

3:10:40 > 3:10:48mythology behind the year of the dog.The year of the dog is the 11th

3:10:48 > 3:10:56of the Chinese Zodiac. People born in the year of the dog are believed

3:10:56 > 3:11:03to have very strong characteristics of honesty, loyalty, smart and also

3:11:03 > 3:11:06they can take huge responsibility. There will be a lot of events

3:11:06 > 3:11:11happening across the UK.Masses, particularly in Manchester this

3:11:11 > 3:11:16week. We've got the Dragon in Saint Anne 's Square all over the weekend.

3:11:16 > 3:11:22It's going to be really exciting and culminating on Sunday with lots of

3:11:22 > 3:11:24colour and celebrations, fireworks and performances in Chinatown in

3:11:24 > 3:11:32Manchester.Does the camera want to have a walk around the Dragon? This

3:11:32 > 3:11:37is obviously a giant inflatable Golden Dragon. Is it of any

3:11:37 > 3:11:44particular significance, the Golden Dragon?It

3:11:44 > 3:11:49Dragon?It represents the power of the Chinese. Every year we will

3:11:49 > 3:11:53bring in the Dragon as a symbol and we also have the Dragon parading in

3:11:53 > 3:12:02Chinatown on Sunday. These dragons will be

3:12:07 > 3:12:11will be displayed in St Anne's Square tomorrow's.People are always

3:12:11 > 3:12:13fascinated by the characteristics associated with the year of their

3:12:13 > 3:12:23bed. -- year of their birth. I was born in the year of the Tiger.It's

3:12:23 > 3:12:30a way of adding greater meaning to celebrations and makes it more

3:12:30 > 3:12:39related to bowl for people, really. There's a lot of context, cultural,

3:12:39 > 3:12:44historical, for a lot of people. We've found Mike. Thank you very

3:12:44 > 3:12:49much. We told you in advance you're not allowed to get on board.It's a

3:12:49 > 3:12:53bit soft, to be fair. It's a wonderful symbol of Chinese good

3:12:53 > 3:12:58luck and a great way to see in the Chinese New Year.A lot of people

3:12:58 > 3:13:03having celebrations over the next few days. It's so beautiful today.

3:13:03 > 3:13:07This morning we were rather dreading coming outside because it is nippy.

3:13:07 > 3:13:14In this sunshine it looks wonderful. Thank you to my guests this morning.

3:13:14 > 3:13:20We wish you a very good day.

3:13:20 > 3:13:23Coming up next on BBC One, Clare Balding has live coverage

3:13:23 > 3:13:25of the Winter Olympics including Lizzy Yarnold's defence

3:13:25 > 3:13:32of her skeleton title.
