:00:00. > :00:08.The head of the NHS here in the capital -

:00:09. > :00:14.It is the busiest we have ever seen it.

:00:15. > :00:16.You always get the busiest period towards the end of January,

:00:17. > :00:23.It comes amidst today's warnings that the NHS in England may

:00:24. > :00:35.I started to get pretty bad bumps on my head...

:00:36. > :00:37.The untrained barbers giving Londoners much more than a haircut.

:00:38. > :00:41.After Turkey experiences the heaviest snowfall in seven years -

:00:42. > :00:51.we hear from Londoners who were left stranded at the airport for days.

:00:52. > :01:00.It became a case of survival of the fittest. I need three or four eggs a

:01:01. > :01:01.day. The personal trainer who's become

:01:02. > :01:05.an international best-selling As we've been hearing,

:01:06. > :01:21.there are warnings the NHS in England may become unsustainable

:01:22. > :01:27.due to a lack of funding. Meanwhile the Chief Executive of NHS

:01:28. > :01:30.London has told this programme that services are busier

:01:31. > :01:47.than they've ever been. pressure in the coming weeks. We

:01:48. > :01:54.have been behind-the-scenes story have capital is coping.

:01:55. > :02:00.The Chelsea and with Mr is busy, very busy, seeing around 450 people

:02:01. > :02:06.a day, the number they have to admit the hospital is up 13% from last

:02:07. > :02:11.year. We are seeing the highest numbers we have ever seen, more and

:02:12. > :02:17.more people coming through the door. The hospital, like most crossed the

:02:18. > :02:23.capital, is full. The problem, not being able to move patients at quick

:02:24. > :02:30.enough. We're at 100%, every single bed is full, and it's almost a case

:02:31. > :02:34.of one in, one out, as soon as we can discharge somebody, move

:02:35. > :02:40.somebody through the system. What is the NHS doing to tackle the issues?

:02:41. > :02:44.This is part of a solution. Five times a day every day, this team

:02:45. > :02:56.gathered to take the temperature of hospitals across the capital.

:02:57. > :03:04.They have seven adult wards... What level escalation? They check on

:03:05. > :03:07.things like staffing levels, how many patients are waiting to be

:03:08. > :03:16.waiting to be seen and harmony beds waiting to be seen and harmony beds

:03:17. > :03:19.are available. -- how many beds. The focus is often nonemergency

:03:20. > :03:22.is the full picture, the flowing is the full picture, the flowing

:03:23. > :03:26.through the hospital, that's often what we are able to contribute to so

:03:27. > :03:34.that it's not just an emergency problem. Do you want to move on?

:03:35. > :03:37.Today as we filmed the NHS boss in London during the call at a time

:03:38. > :03:42.when the service is being stretched as never before. It is the busiest

:03:43. > :03:45.we have ever seen it, we are 10% up on where we were in terms of

:03:46. > :03:53.hospital activity year on year, this time last year, one will run during

:03:54. > :03:58.the first few weeks into the New Year, but 14% up, Ambulance Services

:03:59. > :04:02.but we planned to be busy. So far but we planned to be busy. So far

:04:03. > :04:06.this plans are working. London is holding its own but exotic spectre

:04:07. > :04:09.to get even tougher in the coming weeks with cold weather and flu

:04:10. > :04:12.outbreaks on the way. What used to outbreaks on the way. What used to

:04:13. > :04:20.be a busy winter surge isn't expected to end until May.

:04:21. > :04:23.Talking twenties and prohibition - we catch up with Sienna Miller and

:04:24. > :04:32.Ben Affleck at the European Premiere of their latest film.

:04:33. > :04:35.If you visit a barber's in America, Australia and several

:04:36. > :04:37.European countries - by law they are required to be

:04:38. > :04:39.trained AND licenced - but not so here.

:04:40. > :04:41.Because anyone can set up shop, start cutting

:04:42. > :04:43.hair and giving shaves. They don't need a licence.

:04:44. > :04:46.And BBC London has discovered that it could be putting people

:04:47. > :04:52.at risk here in the capital as Ben Hunt explains.

:04:53. > :04:54.For millions of men, visiting a barber is fairly routine.

:04:55. > :04:58.Usually they leave looking and feeling better.

:04:59. > :05:09.Walking London's high streets you will see more barber

:05:10. > :05:17.They are top spots for trendy haircuts and popular meeting places

:05:18. > :05:19.but the UK barbering industry is difficult to regulate

:05:20. > :05:22.and barbers here don't even need a license to practice.

:05:23. > :05:24.For some in the capital, this is causing huge problems.

:05:25. > :05:29.He got a fungal infection after his barber used dirty

:05:30. > :05:33.In the summer of 2015 I started to get some pretty bad bumps

:05:34. > :05:35.on my head and there would be pus coming out,

:05:36. > :05:39.and every time I would wake up I would look down and there would be

:05:40. > :05:42.spots of blood on my pillow, so I was put

:05:43. > :05:49.But nothing, it would subside but come back straight after that.

:05:50. > :05:52.It was quite painful, quite itchy, I wasn't able to shave

:05:53. > :06:09.Dirty clippers or razors at barber shops can put customers at risk

:06:10. > :06:10.of bacterial and viral infections, like folliculitis, herpes

:06:11. > :06:16.We are seeing more and more of this and if the barber isn't trained,

:06:17. > :06:18.then in fact what can happen is there is an entry

:06:19. > :06:21.of bacteria into the scalp, the hair becomes infected

:06:22. > :06:26.If you are trained you would know it's very important

:06:27. > :06:34.Take a look at these pictures we took inside an east

:06:35. > :06:43.We showed them to one of the industry's leading figures.

:06:44. > :06:46.The councils, I think, need to get involved with health

:06:47. > :06:50.and safety and check - not shut down people, help people,

:06:51. > :06:53.tell them what the legislation is and people will get

:06:54. > :06:55.a qualification, they understand everything else.

:06:56. > :06:59.At the London School of Barbering, hygiene is high up on the prejudice

:07:00. > :07:02.for the students must complete three months of training before they can

:07:03. > :07:09.In the USA and Australia you have to work X amount

:07:10. > :07:12.of hours to gain a license, here in the UK you don't,

:07:13. > :07:15.I think that's something that is essential to the health

:07:16. > :07:17.and safety of our customers, you wouldn't go to a mechanic that

:07:18. > :07:24.We contacted all of London's 32 councils but none could tell us how

:07:25. > :07:28.many barber shops operated in the area and only one

:07:29. > :07:33.So while it doesn't look like anything will be changing soon,

:07:34. > :07:36.it's vital that customers are aware of the risks and always

:07:37. > :07:47.Next: There are questions tonight over the future

:07:48. > :07:53.Critics say it's on the verge of collapse after accounts

:07:54. > :07:59.published today show a significant funding shortfall.

:08:00. > :08:02.If it isn't built - around ?40 million of public

:08:03. > :08:05.But the trust behind the project says it still expects to start

:08:06. > :08:15.This is where the Garden Bridge is meant to expand the Thames

:08:16. > :08:19.commitment to be a haven for wildlife and plants, but there is

:08:20. > :08:25.now considerable doubt around the project. The trustees say they are

:08:26. > :08:30.?56 million short, the project is no longer a going concern. Campaigners

:08:31. > :08:31.say the bridge would destroy protected views and is in the wrong

:08:32. > :08:36.place. There are issues about land place. There are issues about land

:08:37. > :08:43.and whether the mail will underwrite maintenance costs. They are

:08:44. > :08:47.admitting the costs arising, they don't know about the roof, who is

:08:48. > :08:52.good to put money into this project? It makes no sense. If there are

:08:53. > :08:58.delays to the project the trustees said the initial estimate of ?185

:08:59. > :09:03.million could rise substantially. The mayor is now carrying out a

:09:04. > :09:07.review of this project and the trustees say that is hindering their

:09:08. > :09:14.attempts to raise more funds through the private sector. The project will

:09:15. > :09:19.use ?60 million of public money. The rest is meant to come from private

:09:20. > :09:24.donors. I think it's nearly dead and it's about time we put it out of its

:09:25. > :09:30.misery. I think the current managed to break with the previous one and

:09:31. > :09:33.make sure he doesn't sign the guarantee in order to fulfil the

:09:34. > :09:37.pledge he made of no more public money being spent on this project.

:09:38. > :09:41.If it doesn't underwrite the maintenance costs and the issues

:09:42. > :09:48.the trustees admit the project may the trustees admit the project may

:09:49. > :09:49.have to be scrapped. The Maher has already said that could cost

:09:50. > :10:00.taxpayer ?40 million. We have had to taxpayer ?40 million. We have had to

:10:01. > :10:04.disclose the risks before we begin construction and none of them are

:10:05. > :10:08.new, we need to secure the land under funded, we would be able to do

:10:09. > :10:13.that but we had to disclose those risks. . The trust says

:10:14. > :10:17.constructions. This year. Critics say the Garden Bridge is on the

:10:18. > :10:27.brink of collapse. Uncertainty means time is running out. Rolf Harris has

:10:28. > :10:30.gone on trial accused of indecently assaulting seven girls and women. He

:10:31. > :10:34.denies seven charges of indecent assault and one of sexual assault.

:10:35. > :10:38.He is serving a prison sentence after being convicted of 12 counts

:10:39. > :11:03.of indecent assault two years ago. He denies the charges.

:11:04. > :11:11.It is day two of the strike on Southern Rail with one more still to

:11:12. > :11:14.2200 services are cancelled, causing 2200 services are cancelled, causing

:11:15. > :11:18.misery yet again for hundreds of thousands of commuters. The dispute

:11:19. > :11:19.is over driver only trains. Further strikes are planned for later this

:11:20. > :11:24.month. This was the scene at the airport

:11:25. > :11:27.in Istanbul last week - after the heaviest snowfall to hit

:11:28. > :11:29.Turkey for seven years. Well a couple from north London have

:11:30. > :11:32.been described their ordeal after getting stranded

:11:33. > :11:34.at the airport for They say there were chaotic scenes

:11:35. > :11:38.and many travellers were left without food and water

:11:39. > :11:40.for long periods. Sarah Harris has been

:11:41. > :11:45.speaking to them. They are still getting

:11:46. > :11:48.appeals for advice online from passengers who remain stranded

:11:49. > :11:51.at Istanbul's Ataturk airport. It's a place Dominic

:11:52. > :11:54.and Eloise know well, having spent three days

:11:55. > :11:57.there in freezing weather trying They filmed some of the chaos

:11:58. > :12:05.on their phones as flight We were cold to the bone,

:12:06. > :12:12.blankets wouldn't have helped. No water given out, no supplies

:12:13. > :12:23.anyone who is in the same situation. We were on the floor above the door

:12:24. > :12:26.where there was snow blowing in. There was nowhere else to sleep

:12:27. > :12:29.on the floor because every seat had for the shutdown of the runway

:12:30. > :12:45.after 16 inches of snow settled They have criticised the way

:12:46. > :12:48.vulnerable people were treated Old people in line,

:12:49. > :12:51.standing for six hours, Someone fainted in the queue,

:12:52. > :12:59.this boy was there for five People were looking after him

:13:00. > :13:03.but it was a case of, Turkish Airlines claim

:13:04. > :13:13.in a statement they are returning to normal after extraordinary

:13:14. > :13:15.weather conditions They say 50,000 food

:13:16. > :13:26.parcels were handed out and thousands of customers

:13:27. > :13:33.were given hotel accommodation. Travel experts say even

:13:34. > :13:36.with extended delays like this there is little chance

:13:37. > :13:38.of full compensation. It's so annoying when you are stuck

:13:39. > :13:42.in a foreign city trying to get home, particularly as in the case

:13:43. > :13:45.of many Turkish Airlines passengers, when you have simply been wanting

:13:46. > :13:48.to change planes and get back. But I'm afraid, aviation is full

:13:49. > :13:52.of unfortunate stuff. All you can do is stay put,

:13:53. > :13:56.hope you can get back as soon as possible and meanwhile keep

:13:57. > :13:58.all the receipts Eloise is trying to get back

:13:59. > :14:04.to normal in the warm of her flat. She wants to see conditions

:14:05. > :14:17.improve for delayed after a challenging end

:14:18. > :14:20.into their perfect holiday. We meet the Londoner and fitness

:14:21. > :14:23.coach who's become a global And find out how much snow we are

:14:24. > :14:39.going to get in the capital. Just a few of the artists

:14:40. > :14:45.who have publicly said - they are against resale ticket

:14:46. > :14:47.websites, otherwise known It's an industry, worth billions

:14:48. > :14:52.worldwide, and it makes lots of money for touts

:14:53. > :14:55.who routinely use them to sell An exclusive investigation for

:14:56. > :15:02.the Victoria Derbyshire Programme found one British artist's

:15:03. > :15:05.management team who've been putting tickets directly onto secondary

:15:06. > :15:07.ticketing websites at higher prices, for a stadium tour

:15:08. > :15:09.that hasn't sold out. There are more and more sites

:15:10. > :15:17.where you can get hold of a ticket for a gig or a show,

:15:18. > :15:19.but it seems it's getting more and more

:15:20. > :15:21.difficult to get one And that could be down

:15:22. > :15:30.to the proliferation of resale sites or secondary ticketing websites,

:15:31. > :15:33.where fans can resell tickets but it seems it's not just the fans

:15:34. > :15:36.uploading tickets onto these sites, We're working with one committee

:15:37. > :15:39.where we're openly listing those tickets within Getmein and Seatwave,

:15:40. > :15:41.saying, these are Ticketmaster confirmed

:15:42. > :15:52.to me that that artist Here is a ticket you can buy

:15:53. > :16:01.on Ticketmaster's website, let's get some good seats,

:16:02. > :16:10.level one, block 126, ?95 each. Ticketmaster own resale sites

:16:11. > :16:17.Seatwave and Getme in so let's see These tickets are direct

:16:18. > :16:21.from the event organiser, similar seats, one block over

:16:22. > :16:23.from the stage at ?160 each. This is not a resell ticket,

:16:24. > :16:27.it is being sold for the first time Ticketmaster say these platinum

:16:28. > :16:30.tickets are the best seats in the house but confirm they come

:16:31. > :16:33.with no extra perks. Robbie and his management aren't

:16:34. > :16:36.doing anything illegal, they're not breaking any laws or any

:16:37. > :16:41.rules, but some people have said In 2015 a number of promoters

:16:42. > :16:47.and artist managers signed an open letter to the government asking them

:16:48. > :16:49.to take a harsher stance Harvey Goldsmith who has promoted

:16:50. > :16:56.acts like Michael Jackson and Madonna, signed it and we

:16:57. > :16:59.pointed out another signature. I think it is wrong,

:17:00. > :17:02.hopefully most of the people who have signed the petition

:17:03. > :17:06.are acting honourably and do everything that they can do

:17:07. > :17:10.to prevent tickets being sold Ticketmaster say they are being

:17:11. > :17:15.transparent but it does seem you are paying more for a ticket

:17:16. > :17:19.for no real reason when you can get And despite numerous requests

:17:20. > :17:23.for a statement, Robbie's management We're going to transport you to

:17:24. > :17:38.the roaring twenties - well sort of. It's the European premiere

:17:39. > :17:40.of Ben Affleck's latest film - a gangster movie set

:17:41. > :17:42.at the beginning of As well as directing,

:17:43. > :17:45.he also stars alongside But the critics haven't

:17:46. > :17:48.been too kind so far. Our Arts Correspondent Brenda

:17:49. > :18:03.Emmanus caught up with them Then, director, producer, writer, is

:18:04. > :18:07.this a passion project for you? It was, but it sounds fancier than it

:18:08. > :18:11.brilliant actors to make the movie brilliant actors to make the movie

:18:12. > :18:20.good for me and I had to do very little work. He had consensual

:18:21. > :18:25.gangsters moral in this. -- the quintessential. I loved it, I had

:18:26. > :18:33.the best time in this film. Was it nice to be important but important

:18:34. > :18:39.to be nice? I was lucky, got my first choices for crew and cast, I

:18:40. > :18:42.can only hope I can keep it up. If you make a movie and win best

:18:43. > :18:47.picture, you probably have your pick of the crop as a director. You're

:18:48. > :18:54.live in New York, did you really live in New York, did you really

:18:55. > :18:58.leave because you can get to leaky? No, it's one tiny,, I love London,

:18:59. > :19:02.America and my daughter started America and my daughter started

:19:03. > :19:08.school, I would've had to go then nine times, for my daughter, it

:19:09. > :19:15.makes sense. But London is always home. I find London to cliquey!

:19:16. > :19:22.Whatever they are, they get in my way. From your perspective, what is

:19:23. > :19:30.it like at this time of year for you or? We're going to win everything!

:19:31. > :19:35.It's a fun time. My brother is up for an award, a BAFTA, I'm hoping

:19:36. > :19:37.taste and select him as a winner. My taste and select him as a winner. My

:19:38. > :19:42.fingers are crossed. You look like fingers are crossed. You look like

:19:43. > :19:46.you need a coat! I'm going to let you go!

:19:47. > :19:48.In just a few years, this man - Joe Wicks -

:19:49. > :19:53.From personal trainer to best-selling author -

:19:54. > :19:58.in fact last year second only to JK Rowling.

:19:59. > :20:01.So how did the man from Epsom who began his career handing out

:20:02. > :20:04.flyers offering his training services - go on to become

:20:05. > :20:06.an internet sensation and create a multi-million pound business?

:20:07. > :20:15.His 15 second videos, posted on social media,

:20:16. > :20:25.It is what, in part, has made Joe Wicks so successful.

:20:26. > :20:32.But his diet growing up with his mum in Epsom was far from ideal.

:20:33. > :20:34.We used to have a really bad diet, our cupboards were always full

:20:35. > :20:37.of chocolate wagon wheels, crisps and basically,

:20:38. > :20:41.my mum couldn't afford nice food so we used to have pasta with just

:20:42. > :20:47.tomato sauce but no mince, we will get mince if we were lucky.

:20:48. > :20:51.Today the 31-year-old is a successful presenter

:20:52. > :20:59.But just three years ago, he was a personal trainer,

:21:00. > :21:09.I would cycle with a trailer, 3-4 miles at 6am and get

:21:10. > :21:12.there and sometimes I would stand there and no one would turn up.

:21:13. > :21:15.I was disheartened but kept going back, I would pack it all up,

:21:16. > :21:18.go to the station and hand out flyers and get on people's

:21:19. > :21:22.nerves and say hey, come and try the boot camp.

:21:23. > :21:26.That's when he turned to social media.

:21:27. > :21:28.Talking directly to his audience in his own unique

:21:29. > :21:38.Throwing things in the microwave, hold tight, I wasn't trying

:21:39. > :21:41.to build this character, I was just trying to engage my

:21:42. > :21:46.following and give them a little bit of fun.

:21:47. > :21:48.It does look as if I've come out of nowhere

:21:49. > :21:51.but there was two or three years of really hard work on social

:21:52. > :21:54.media, it takes a long time to build up a community,

:21:55. > :22:00.This is where I used to do my flyering.

:22:01. > :22:04.And it has paid off in more ways than one.

:22:05. > :22:07.It is claimed the Joe Wicks effect has led to a rise

:22:08. > :22:35.We have been scratching our heads all afternoon to try and figure out

:22:36. > :22:43.and pinpoint exactly how much we're going to get! It's a nightmare for a

:22:44. > :22:48.forecaster! But we have got to go for it. We are forecasting snow but

:22:49. > :22:54.it's going to start off as rain and we all know what happens when a

:22:55. > :22:59.little bit of snow settles over the capital, everything grinds to a

:23:00. > :23:01.halt. Hopefully that's not going to happen, hopefully we can deal with a

:23:02. > :23:05.bit of snow. We have clouds and bit of snow. We have clouds and

:23:06. > :23:11.wintry showers across many northern areas of the UK, fairly quiet at the
