-8 easily in temperatures down to —8 easily in the highlands, i suspect we could get down to around —10, further south the cold night, temperatures at or below freezing for the majority. tomorrow sunny, actually, not as much celtman more sunshine. some wintry showers still possible across the far south—west of england, may be the channel islands. maybe one or 2a scotland and eastern england. temperatures for— six on the thermometer but factoring in the wind chill and strength of the wind, look at these feels like temperatures, cardiff, plymouth knight will feel like —2 or —3, very cold indeed. subtle change for the second half of the week, this high—pressure site the changes shape, bringing more cloud into the mix but also some slightly less cold air, temperatures creeping up a little bit. but that may not last all that long because as we head through the weekend, we will see this cold front slipping southwards and behind that, a northerly wind will bring a cold plunge of air.

next week it will be cold, there could be further snow, the cold weather looks set to last. and that's bbc news at six. now it's time to join our colleagues for the news where you are. hello and welcome to sportsday this monday night, i'm chetan pathak. coming up on the programme: one of football's greatest players and a legend of the game franz beckenbauer dies at the age of 78. tonight we'll also be in wigan where manchester united will be hoping to avoid an upset in the third round of the fa cup. farrell's future in the spotlight what next for the england captain amid reports of a move to france? also coming up on the

and went on to lift the trophy again as manager in 1990. he earned over a 100 caps with the national side and played 582 times for bayern munich, winning five league titles and was captain for their three european cup wins in 7a, 75 and 76. there were other honours too including the ballon d'0r, not once but twice, in 1972 and 1976. franz beckenbauer�*s family have issued a statement saying — "it is with deep sadness that we announce that my husband and our father, franz beckenbauer, passed away peacefully in his sleep yesterday, surrounded by his family. "we ask that you be able to grieve in silence and refrain from asking any questions." the president of the german football association bernd neuendorf says — "we look

at his life's work with respect and great gratitude. with him we are losing a unique footballer and a lovable person. the �*kaiser�* was one of the best players, our sport has ever seen." and gary linekar says — "very sorry to hear that franz beckenbauer has died. one of the absolute greats of our game. der kaiser was the most beautiful of footballers who won it all with grace and charm. well, the german football journalist taufig khalil knew franz beckenbauer well, and he's been telling us that gary lineker�*s description was particularly apt. this is something that fits perfectly with the way that he moved around, the way he hung outside and there was always a lot of grace he was not a loud rude guy with

thinkings and things like that, he was really celebrating to fall and a very beautiful way. he said for the beauty of the game and the way they touched the ball but also outside the pitch, he was a guy who loves to live. he was very well managed, the first manager of bayern munich and then franz beckenbauer he took care of him and brought him all in the advertisements. franz beckenbauer was a ladies guy. the ladies loved him and he loved ladies and he was more sweet times and have long—time relationship and a lot of people admire him forthe relationship and a lot of people admire him for the way he just walked around and he had golden hands. whatever he took in in his hands. whatever he took in in his hands and worked as a manager as the president of bayern munich and he went to bring the work of the journey and he did that and we should all have in mind what he did

for german football. and really he was great. after the 7a pro cup a people said johan cory full screen but franz beckenbauer was bigger was the empire, kaiser. taufig khalil there remembering franz beckenbauer, who's died at the age of 78. you heard from chris mason with the house of commons and we are expecting to kaiser hear more on the post offence horizons scandal we will break away to bring you that as and when it happens. heat will break away to bring you that as and when it happens.— and when it happens. next on the programme _ and when it happens. next on the programme tonight _ and when it happens. next on the programme tonight they - and when it happens. next on the programme tonight they are - and when it happens. next on the programme tonight they are out l and when it happens. next on the | programme tonight they are out of the premier league title race. out of europe, but manchester united will be hoping tonight isn't the night they're out of the fa cup too. it's the only trophy they've got a realistic chance of winning in what's been a frustrating season so far.

welcome to a very chilly dw stadium. wigan are one of the clubs that embody the magic of the fa cups after they famously won it back in 2013. a lot has changed since in the ten years and you would have to say survival would be the priority now. having said that there is still a huge paula vennells amount of excitement for this time with manchester united and the prospect of an f cups run. here to talk to me all about it is the former england international is the former england international izzi christiansen. thank you forjoining us. what is your feeling? thank you forjoining us. what is yourfeeling? to think thank you forjoining us. what is your feeling? to think there is a prospect of an upset tonight. there could be, there _ prospect of an upset tonight. there could be, there should _ prospect of an upset tonight. there could be, there should not- prospect of an upset tonight. there could be, there should not be - prospect of an upset tonight. ti” could be, there should not be but prospect of an upset tonight, tl- could be, there should not be but it could be, there should not be but it could be. like you said the fa cup it is incredible time for wigan and ito say but the season it is incredible time for wigan and i to say but the season that they are having in the priority must be staying in league1 are having in the priority must be staying in league 1 under their manager. the with the play football is quite exciting, but is it right for playing against manchester united tonight? i don't think so. i think they will have to drop off and

saracen's to join french side racing 92, who are under the stewardship of former england coach stuart lancaster. 0ur report felicity kvesic has been following the story for us. 0wen farrell announced he was taking a step back from international rugby following a challenging world cup where he faced a lot of social media fan backlash following a high tackle which led to a four match ban, 32—year—old hudson said he wanted to focus on his mental well—being and he is continuing to play for saracens. the boss over the weekend said he hoped to keep him and until there is something to talk about, they are not going to talk about it. however, momentum is clearly building across news outlets. that is moved to france is imminent. the big question — is moved to france is imminent. the big question will be around his international future and what he needs for that. under those current rules he would be ineligible to play for england if he were to move abroad. , , , .,, ., ,

would prove the catalyst for a revision of rules on england starts playing for the club rugby overseas. if he makes this move he would be the most high—profile player to swap the most high—profile player to swap the partnership for the top 1a, what is pushing him towards this move? there is no salary cap in france so the earning potential over there could be huge. he would be following the likes of british and irish sam simmonds who moved from exeter chiefs to a french team and one player whose left club irish. brass and have a statement within the last week saying no deal has been agreed yet but they have not denied interest in 0wen farrell or talks have taken place yet. we had the excitement of the climax to the darts at alexandra palace last week, now it's the turn of the snooker. the top 16 players in the world are hoping this sunday ends with them being crowned masters champion. ronnie 0'sullivan, hoping for a record—extending eighth title, was up against his old foe

things are about to get really interesting. don't take my word for it. as you know there are 32 teams in the nfl they are split into two conferences. we have the afc and the nfc. 0n—screen we can see the two teams with the best overall record from their respective regions. we have the baltimore ravens who had the best record in the afc and hear the best record in the afc and hear the san francisco 49ers taught the nfc. both teams are the number one seed so they get a bite into the second round. let's take a look at the full playoffs line—up. we will focus on the afc. at the top we have the buffalo bills, perennial contenders, they host the pittsburgh steelers who also clinched a playoff spots in the final day of the regular season. spots in the final day of the regularseason. next spots in the final day of the regular season. next stop, how about this for a match up. miami dolphins travelling to super bowl defending champions, patrick my homes in the kansas city chiefs. last but by no means least we have the cleveland

browns and to take on the houston, texas and that completes the picture. if we focus on the nfc, congratulations to everyone involved with the green bay packers because against the odds they have made the playoffs but will have their work cut out because they take on dallas cowboys who have won all eight teams at home this season. that game is in dallas. we also have the los angeles rams who to call detroit lions and the philadelphia eagles made it to the philadelphia eagles made it to the super bowl last year and lost the super bowl last year and lost the final take on the tampa bay buccaneers as well. we all know about black friday, where you can make big savings with your shopping. today in nfl circles it is known as black monday, less best of it is when managers and coaching staff who have underperformed get there are two orders. that is proven to be the case today. two casualties already, the atlanta falcons say goodbye to head coach arthur smith and the washington commanders have done the same. bye—bye to ron rivera. we are

going to focus on someone who still has a job but potentially, lots of people were saying, is this last year we have seen bill bella check at the new england patriots who has been a charge for 2h years and the records and numbers speak for themselves. the third most ever career wins. themselves. the third most ever careerwins. six themselves. the third most ever career wins. six super bowl wins, the most ever and no coaching ministry of the nfl has more playoff wins as well. he is considered one of the greatest the sport has ever known. 71 years of age, given what he is achieved, sacking him seemed unthinkable. he is on record as saying he scenes out his contract but lots of people saying, has his time and new england run out? iitrul’hat time and new england run out? what will ha en time and new england run out? what will happen next. _ time and new england run out? b'fi'té�*jf will happen next. actually said today to a reporter for the first he is open with them possibly bringing someone and which is something not heard from in which the shock a lot of people do not see that coming it was either he had every responsibly or not at all. so because he's going to do that i think that is the change that needs

to be made. they need someone who can help with the draughting class who can help bring in better talent but once the talent is there he can do so much with it as we have seen in the past of six super bowl championships. harriet dart and heather watson are among eight british players hoping to qualify for the australian open, which starts on sunday. because of rain, their qualifiers will be played tomorrow. cam norrie, dan evans, andy murray and jodie burrage are already in the main draw as are these three players. jack draper who's won his opening match at the adelaide international. the 22—year—old looked impressive as he beat argentina's sebastian baez in straight sets, 6—1, 6—3. but there was disappointment for the british number one katie boulter in adelaide, as she was beaten 6 3 6—4 emma raducanu has reunited with her childhood coach nick cavaday in time for the australian open,

which will be her first grand slam for a year. sidelined for much of 2023 after ankle and wrist surgeries. she's had a sequence of short lived coaches since turning professional but is now teaming up with cavaday who she worked with as a junior. another british player who'll be at the australian open is lily mills, who'll be competing in the draw for players with intellectual impairments. lily, who's 23, excelled at the special olympics so earned a wildcard spot for australia. her story is all the more remarkable because as a baby she was so ill, doctors only gave her a 50/50 chance of survival. in islington north london there is a famous face that is lily mills. five days of the week you will find her training. we watched one of the final sessions before herflight to the australian open. his tone is the most important thing in your life? yes. y? because i don't do

to glory at the 1974 world cup and winning the ballon d'or twice. more reaction on the bbc sport website. for me and the sportsday team, that's all. good night. hello there. well, it was a cold day on monday, with a few snow flurries affecting parts of east anglia and southern england. but the big story from last week still hasn't completely resolved itself, in that we still have over 100 flood warnings currently in force. i think the situation will get better over the next few days, which won't have that much in the way of precipitation coming our way. now, the snow flurries that we did see across east anglia, in south—east england, for the most part weren't very exciting. there were just one or two areas that managed to cover maybe a centimetre or two injust one or two spots. but as we go through this evening and overnight, particularly where we've seen showers by day, we're looking at some icy stretches, but also with a bit of water still coming off those saturated fields, we could have some icy stretches just about anywhere, to be honest, as we head into tuesday morning. so a slippery start to the day both under wheel and underfoot.

tuesday will be another cold day, with those easterly winds continuing to make it feel particularly bitter. now weather—wise, much better prospects of seeing sunshine across east anglia, the midlands, south—east england. good evening. as we have been hearing, the uk government is under growing pressure to exonerate hundreds of post offices some pastors who had been wrongly convicted of fraud because of faulty computer system. convicted of fraud because of faulty computersystem. let's convicted of fraud because of faulty computer system. let's take you live now to the house of commons where kevin hall and ray the minister for enterprise markets in small business also responsible for postal services is giving an update on horizon compensation and post to submaster convictions. i would like to pay coach tribute to alan bates who fellow postmasters including joe hamilton and alan bates who fellow postmasters including joe hamilton—

including joe hamilton and lee castleton and _ including joe hamilton and lee castleton and the _ including joe hamilton and lee castleton and the right - including joe hamilton and lee - castleton and the right honourable member from castleton and the right honourable memberfrom north durham, my right honourable friend for halting price and how did the memberfor telford the memberfor and how did the memberfor telford the member for motherwell and indeed, of course the lord. and other members of the horizon compensation and the key figures in the media. they play a key role in seeking justice and compensation for the victims. i also think the shadow secretary of state for his continual constructive approach as well of course my ministerial predecessors including my honourable friend the memberfor including my honourable friend the member for sutton. watching including my honourable friend the memberfor sutton. watching last member for sutton. watching last week's memberfor sutton. watching last week's i view programme only reinforce our zealfor week's i view programme only reinforce our zeal for seeing justice done as quickly as possible. we are already a long way down that road so when william's inquiry is doing great work inspiring what went wrong and who is responsible and

full and final composition has already been paid to 64% of those people affected. i previously have said to the house and my main concern now is for those still waiting for full compensation and the slow pace at which criminal convictions related to horizon are being overturned by the courts. before christmas the advisory board published a letter which underlined exactly that. this is notjust a matter of getting justice for those wrongly convicted. overturning their convictions is also key to unlocking compensation. each person who is horizon conviction owes overturned is entitled to interim composition payment of £163,000. there can then choose whether to have their composition individually assessed or to accept an upfront offer of £600,000. that offer is already speeding along compensation for a significant number of people. in the light of the advisory board letter

of overturning convictions i've spoken to the right honourable memberfor durham north spoken to the right honourable member for durham north and spoken to the right honourable memberfor durham north and others and have had a very positive meeting this afternoon with my right honourable friend the lord chancellor. all of us on these benches and across the house are united in our desire to see justice done. we have devised some options for resolving the outstanding criminal convictions with much more pace. my right honourable from the lord chancellor will quite rightly need to speak to senior figures in thejudiciary about need to speak to senior figures in the judiciary about these options before we put them forward. but i'm confident that we should be able to implement measures which address the concerns expressed by the advisory board and i hope the government shall be able to announce these proposals of course, there is clearly great concern about the role of the post office in prosecuting these cases also the post office quite rightly decided to stop undertaking private

prosecutions into thousand 15. if we are to
