morning. The Bishop of Gloucester has

:00:37.:00:39.

launched a campaign aimed at challenging our

obsession with image. Called Lie-dentity, it's a response

:00:43.:00:44.

by the Right Reverend Rachel Treweek to a report that found a thhrd

to see themselves differently. All the time we are judging people

:01:19.:01:21.

and assessing people on their appearance and I do

think it has got worse. What I would say is I think

the world of social media, the pressures on young

:01:27.:01:31.

people, are different. I was a teenager who was very

:01:32.:01:33.

self-conscious about my bodx, but I didn't have all the pressures

:01:34.:01:36.

of social media upon me. What I want to do is encour`ge these

young people to begin changhng the messages that they feel

they are receiving from Her campaign comes after

new research that showed 33$ of girls aged 10-15 were unhappy

:01:49.:01:52.

about their appearance. Girls who reported negative feelings

:01:53.:01:58.

about their bodies were up from 30% If you say you like the way

:01:59.:02:01.

you look, that's great, but if you don't like the w`y

:02:02.:02:08.

you look that bad. You are meant to have curves

:02:09.:02:11.

but also be really thin. Even if you are proud

:02:12.:02:18.

of something at school, and you do a good piece of work

:02:19.:02:23.

there is always someone who says In an age of social media,

many comments, both good and bad, This campaign is trying to shift

growing. It is starting younger and younger. We are working in primary

schools were very young children are already talking about what they look

like and being concerned about what they are wearing, in a way that was

not happening. How young? Children as young as five and six. The

need to work with young people. We cannot wait until they are 04 or 15

and do a one-off session in a secondary school. It is gre`t it is

happening but we need to st`rt again. Is this a new problel? There

:03:39.:03:44.

have always been issues with body image. But there is more prdssure

:03:45.:03:52.

now on young people. There hs a perfect storm, I would say. We are

living in this image -based culture, celebrity culture, where we are

given the message constantlx do what we look like is the most important

thing about us. What can parents and grandparents do? It is diffhcult for

parents, their children are under more pressure, they are livhng in

what they did not have themselves. But we can help children. Wd need to

:04:18.:04:24.

as parents are saying, it is what is as parents are saying, it is what is

:04:25.:04:29.

on the inside that matters, but we are given a different message by

:04:30.:04:35.

what we are saying, by our body talk, criticism of ourselves. So we

:04:36.:04:42.

need to be good role models. We also need to help children stop

:04:43.:04:45.

questioning the images they are seen because so many are not real. It is

:04:46.:04:50.

not just goes we are talking about, these boys as well? It is a growing

:04:51.:04:58.

issue for boys. 22% of boys cite their bodies as their main concern

:04:59.:05:03.

at the age of ten. We are coming across young boys, 809, talking

:05:04.:05:07.

about wanting a six-pack at that age, and that is becoming

just over 1200 students. Interestingly, the new univdrsity

came with a ready-made history. It was built on educational fotndations

started in Bristol over the previous Hundred years so the Bristol College

of science and technology bdcame the new University of Bath. If xou think

:06:44.:06:48.

that in those days, you had a lot of flat roofed buildings, you can

imagine they were actually puite cold, not least when you ard on the

top of a hill. Today, with over 16,000 students, the fifth

Chancellor joined together hn a celebration in Bath Abbey. The party

Sport has always played a crucial part of university life. In the

:07:30.:07:35.

early 70s, the first sport was Olympian Tom. He set up the first

:07:36.:07:40.

scholarship in the country. From those early ideas grew our

:07:41.:07:45.

present-day Olympians. Expertise in science, engineering and research

:07:46.:07:49.

have continue to be at its heart. For the past three years, ?0 million

economic influence of the university since it has grown has been

:08:18.:08:22.

absolutely phenomenal. In its five decades, it has become one of the

:08:23.:08:26.

top universities in the country and it intends to keep its position The

:08:27.:08:34.

top of the day, 81714 win for Bath students. As the match the

:08:35.:08:41.

celebrations, the future includes attracting more postgraduatd

:08:42.:08:44.

students and also attracting more world-class research.

Bristol City failed to make it through to the quarterfinals

:08:48.:08:49.

of the League Cup tonight after losing to Premier

:08:50.:08:51.

Hull City scored either sidd of the break at Ashton Gate in

:08:52.:08:56.

Lee Tomlin pulled this one back in the dying moments for City

:08:57.:09:04.

We should've played the first team in the beginning. I thought it was a

:09:05.:09:18.

brilliant second half. We played extremely well but it would just not

:09:19.:09:25.

going. You try to put your best team out from the start. You might get a

:09:26.:09:32.

better chance of winning. An own goal in the second half frol

:09:33.:09:35.

Solihull Moors was enough to give the Gloucestershire men the win

:09:36.:09:53.

Not everywhere will see fog tonight but in the areas where you do see

:09:54.:10:00.

it, some of those patches are likely to be dense by tomorrow morning

:10:01.:10:05.

Once we clear that slowly ott of the way, it will be a slow procdss for

:10:06.:10:09.

some of you, it should be a decent enough day. It is looking a dry and

:10:10.:10:13.

bright one. For the rest of the night, temperatures falling in the

:10:14.:10:20.

range of 5-10dC. A lot of variations, depending on how much

:10:21.:10:24.

clear skies we have, and thd fog is subject to a yellow warning from the

:10:25.:10:28.

Met Office. That warning will run through the 10am, so in the dense

:10:29.:10:36.

patches of fog, it may take a good part of that first half of the data

:10:37.:10:40.

finally left. Through the rdst of the day though, varying amotnts of

:10:41.:10:45.

cloud and sunny spells. A sport or two of light rain. But that aside,

:10:46.:10:53.

it should be entirely dry. Temperatures tomorrow, milddr than

:10:54.:10:59.

average, so getting up to 14-16dC and the fog threat returns `s we had

:11:00.:11:00.

through the settled and on the mild side. Nick

:11:01.:11:02.

now has all the national weather. Hello. Autumn is the season of

:11:03.:11:11.

change, most noticeably with those autumn colours on display today in

:11:12.:11:15.

Buckinghamshire, as photographed by one of our weather watchers. Always

:11:16.:11:18.

helps when there is blue sky above. Our weather is always changing

:11:19.:11:21.

regardless of the season. One of those changes is taking place, we

:11:22.:11:24.

are losing last week's Easterly winds and now a westerly wind. That

:11:25.:11:29.

means it's turning milder by day and night but it does mean the return of

:11:30.:11:33.

Atlantic weather fronts, especially to north-western parts of the UK.

:11:34.:11:38.

The reason, high pressure in Germany and low pressure Iceland. Here is

:11:39.:11:42.

the first of those weather fronts for Scotland and Northern Ireland

:11:43.:11:44.

through the night, the first part of tomorrow. There isn't a huge amount

:11:45.:11:48.

of rain associated with this. Could see rain over the hills of northern

:11:49.:11:51.

England and Wales as the night goes on. The odd shower clipping Sussex

:11:52.:11:56.

and Kent. A lot of dry weather for England and Wales. It's mild here,

:11:57.:11:59.

it's milder across the northern half of Britain compared with last night.

:12:00.:12:03.

But the further south you are the closer to that area of high

:12:04.:12:06.

pressure, and we are concerned
