hello, welcome along. joe root was at the heart of england's fight back on the first day of their fourth test against india in ranchi. it was his tenth test century against india, that is a record. england struggled initially, they were 112—5. butjoe root was the anchor. his century was the slowest century scored in the so—called bazball era. a solid start for england as they look to draw level in the series. let's get more on the first day's play from the bbc�*s chief cricket writer, stephan shemilt. it stephan shemilt. was a determination to master ti conditions it was a determination to master the conditions and recognise the situation england found themselves in in terms of the score but also the difficulty they were facing in terms of the pitch and the indian

bowling. england have had some breathtaking centuries from ollie pope and ben duckett in the series but for a to play and make —— for a display of technical mastery, nothing will improve on what we saw from gyrate today. —— joe root today. we've had the draws for the last 16 in europea league and europa conference league. five british sides are still involved in the second and third tier uefa competitions. premier legaue leaders liverpool will face the czech champions, sparta prague, in the europa league. brighton will face roma. the 2022 finallists rangers are up against the portuguese champions, benfica. west ham have german opposition in freiburg. the first legs will take place on march 7th. some huge teams at the top of the german league in his competition,

and at the top of the english premier league at this moment, so you are trying to avoid those teams as much as you can. it's a tough game at whatever it is. the knockout stages now, two legs, they havejust beaten lens who were in the group with arsenal in the champions league so it gives you a good idea about freiburg. aston villa are the sole british representative in the europa conference. they have got ajax in the last 16, who are having a tough season and winning this competition could be their most realistic route back into europe. after a fortnight break, the six nations is back this weekend. table—topping ireland host wales tomorrow, while england will be looking to maintain their 100% record this campaign when they take on scotland at murrayfield. scotland have won the last three calcutta cup contests against england. going back to my first game

for scotland, it was a massive game, one of the biggest games in the calendar, but now we have got to a great position where they are all kind of similar. we are not satisfied by beating just one or two teams in this competition. it is still a massive game with the history behind it, but for us, we have to approach it as just another game, another chance for us to get a victory. more embarrassment for bahrain. for the second day running, formula one testing at the international circuit has had to be delayed for track repairs. the morning session on the final day was stopped for two hours to fix a loose drain cover on turn ii. thursday's morning session had to be cancelled for a similar issue there. the season starts in bahrain next weekend. in the first two days of testing, defending champion max verstappen and ferrari's carlos sainz have been quickest. from me and the rest of the team

at the bbc sport centre, goodbye. how far would vladimir putin go if the russian forces did prevail in ukraine? and is europe ready? at the munich security conference last week, the mood was pretty grim. first the killing of alexei navalny, then news of the ukrainian forces retreating from avdiivka. add to all that, donald trump stalk of letting russia do whatever the hell they want with delinquent nato members, and suddenly european security is not looking very secure at all. so to mark the second year anniversary of the war in ukraine, the context�*s christian fraser has been to warsaw to speak with the polish president. christian is with me now. the interview sounds fascinating. they view russia as an accidental threat, and two years into this war with ukraine do they feel more nervous than at the start? i think so.

nervous than at the start? i think s0- there's _ nervous than at the start? i think s0- there's a _ nervous than at the start? i think so. there's a self-criticism - nervous than at the start? i think| so. there's a self-criticism among so. there's a self—criticism among the polish that they focus too much on the history and not enough on theirfuture but on the history and not enough on their future but because of the reasons you have just set out, it comes very much in terms of their history coming into sharp focus and the president showed me a room yesterday in the presidential palace where they signed the warsaw pact in 1955 and from that point on poland was 35 years behind the iron curtain. to think that next month president duda will go to washington to mark 25 years of their membership of nato, it is about their realignment with the west and their focus on the west, and all of that is at risk at the moment. the criticism from duda is that europe has missed the opportunities time and time again to stop russia in its tracks. translation:

the russian attack against georgia happened. and then in 2014, we witnessed the russian attack against ukraine at the beginning of the occupation of crimea, of donetsk, luhansk, and then in 2022, a full scale aggression. from a historical perspective, it was the west that didn't pass the exam, as a matter of fact, because if they had listened to the words of kaczynski in 2008, which he said in tbilisi, that today russia is attacking georgia, it has to be stopped at all costs because if it does not stop, perhaps soon ukraine will come as the next victim, then maybe the baltic states, and then perhaps my country, poland. if those words had been listened to back then, if back then it had been implemented what president george bush had wanted from nato, supported by kaczynski. perhaps history would have taken a different turn.

if ukraine had been admitted into nato, that war would have never happened because i believe russia wouldn't have dared attack nato. and today we have a war. interesting reflections. what is their view domestically - interesting reflections. what is their view domestically in - interesting reflections. what is| their view domestically in terms interesting reflections. what is - their view domestically in terms of their view domestically in terms of their approach and what do they want from the international community? he: said he did not think russia would have dared test nato but that is not the view now and there is now a mood shift that the test of collective security would come, and he makes the point that with donald trump, he had a very good relationship because they were already meeting their 2% gdp target and he went to donald trump and he said, we need your support, and he said, we will give you the planes and put more troops on the border with ukraine, so he dismisses what donald trump is saying, although i'm not sure others in europe dismissed that in the same

way and in fact the mayor of warsaw said that kind of language that was used by the former president would be used as propaganda in russia. they have gone up to 3% and very soon they will be at 4% and they are buying south korean tanks and there is more troops, they are ready. i5 is more troops, they are ready. is there a limit of how far they can go domestically?— there a limit of how far they can go domestically? quite. and the focus shifts very much — domestically? quite. and the focus shifts very much to _ domestically? quite. and the focus shifts very much to the _ domestically? quite. and the focus shifts very much to the wider- shifts very much to the wider spending within the eu, and bear in mind, given the threat that europe faces, only 18 of the 31 are making the 2% commitment so he says we need a big fund, a centralfund, like we had for the pandemic recovery, and from that we can start procuring defence centrally if that is the way to go and we need to do it quickly. christian fraser, thanks forjoining us. the full interview will be shown tonight at about 830, it is about

ten minutes in total, and it will also be on the bbc website. thanks forjoining us. now to australia where a 28 year old police officer has been charged with murdering a tv celebrity and his boyfriend even though their bodies have not yet been found. items belonging tojesse baird and his partner luke davies which were covered in blood were found in a bin near sydney on wednesday. police said they wanted to questionjesse's ex boyfriend, who handed himself in on friday. he's now been charged with murder while the search for the bodies continues. it's really important that we do locate the bodies, not only for the cause of death, but also for the answers for the family, because they're still grieving and they're starting to grieve now. we believe that the fate of both luke and jessie was at the house in paddington, and at some stage the white van was used to transport their bodies to another location. that's where we're keen to find

where that location is. our reporter has more on this. as you heard in the sound bite from the police officer, police are still searching for the bodies ofjesse baird and luke davies, they will —— were believed to be murdered in the house on monday morning, and when police went to jesse house on monday morning, and when police went tojesse baird bosman house they found furniture turned upside down and they found a significant amount of blood, and they believe the bodies were transported to a different location in a rented white van. they have found the van in the south of sydney and their prime suspect is a 28—year—old senior constable who has been a police officer since 2019 and he handed himself to the police on friday. he had been in a relationship with jesse friday. he had been in a relationship withjesse baird until a few months ago. the key evidence

that connects him to the murders is a bullet that was found at the crime scene that they matched to his work issued gun. these murders have shocked a lot of people who were involved in the entertainment world involved in the entertainment world in australia becausejesse baird is a big tv presenter and the suspect as well, also used to be a celebrity blogger and has been pictured with the likes of taylor swift and harry styles but the police are focused on finding those bodies and they have released an appeal to the public for any information that could help them get the bodies. because they would like to establish and confirm a cause of death but also to give it some sort of peace of mind to the families of luke davies and jesse baird. :, «a families of luke davies and jesse baird. ., ., ., , around the world and across the uk.

this is bbc news. the decision to build the incinerator has upset a lot of people and local residents have protested at saying it will cause pollution in a built—up area and a total of five local councils across cambridgeshire and norfolk oppose them as well, but despite this the government has approved plans for the incinerator to be built on the industrial estate. the company behind the plans says the facility which would be one of the biggest in europe would burn up to 625,000 tonnes of non—recyclable e that immigrant household and industrial waste each year, which could generate more than 50 watts of electricity —— 625,000 tonnes of non—recyclable household and industrial waste each year. but it once again highlights that there is often a conflict between national needs and the impact on local

communities. you're live with bbc news. the use of prosthetic limbs dates back thousands of years but now new technology is transforming the lives of people who rely on them. bbc click reporter paul carter, who was born without any lower arms or legs, has been to see how one firm is combining existing technology, with artificial intelligence, to create the next generation of devices. prosthetics have come a long way from the early days of wood, tin or leather to modern bionic limbs made from carbon fibre and silicone. i've come to atom limbs in california to see a next generation prosthetic they're developing that's using signals from the brain to control movements. the most advanced state—of—the—art prosthetics we control today is what you call myoelectric control. so that's putting electrodes

on your stump or residual limb. and the difference between what you would do today with a state—of—the—art arm versus with an atom limbs arm and is we basically cover your stump in electrodes and you, when you first put the arm on, you take about five minutes and you train it up. and what that looks like, as we say, "all right!" with your phantom limb, that we can't see but you can, flex your finger, extend your finger, rotate your wrist, rotate it the other way. and our machine—learning and ai system takes a huge amount of training, spits out a result so that now you, whenever you think, canjust move. so there's nothing in your head, nothing on your head, nothing in yourarms. it's all this surface electrode and ai that basically powers it. jason lost his left arm in an industrial accident in 2012. he's been working with atom limbs to test and develop their new prosthetic. tell me a little bit what this is like to operate. i mean, obviously, you're controlling this right now. you're moving this essentially by thinking about it. how are you thinking of that?

what's the process that you're going through? well, just like with anything with, like, using your regular hand, i'm still thinking about the motions. and i have a phantom limb. it still feels like i'm just moving my regular hand. it's a little bit more difficult, obviously, because my muscles are tiny. there's a lot of concentration that has to go into making those movements. it's not as natural, obviously, as moving your regular hand. although not an amputee myself, i was able to put on some sensors and try a digital twin of the arm via the control software. and it's safe to say it was a hit. no way! within just a few minutes of training, i was able to perform several different motions and movements of the arm. what the... this is phenomenal. this is one of the most incredible things i've ever done. the only way i can describe it is it's like on a games controller. i've mapped different buttons

to different muscles that i've got here. so when you said, like, for the grip, well, i don't know what a grip feels like, so ijust chose something that sort of feels vaguely similar. and that's the one that i'm using to open and close the hand and the same for the elbow. it probablyjust looks really mundane to most people. but, to me, this is incredible. the arm being developed here is still at an early stage. the company are gathering data ahead of regulatory filings in the us. of course, the biggest stumbling block for disabled people accessing new technology is cost. although unconfirmed, atom limbs claim their arm could be available for around $20,000. as technology advances, the hope is that prosthetics in the future will become more affordable, more versatile and ultimately more intelligent. that was absolutely amazing. that's the best workout i've ever had. paul carter, bbc news. we can now cross live to salford and speak to paul carter about this. what was that like? you got my

reaction on _ what was that like? you got my reaction on camera, _ what was that like? you got my reaction on camera, and - what was that like? you got my reaction on camera, and it - what was that like? you got my reaction on camera, and it wasl reaction on camera, and it was extremely fascinating, mind—bending, but also really intriguing to get an insight to what it is like for someone with an amputation to use a limit like that and feel it learning and responding to what i was trying to get it to do. it was a pretty fascinating experience. you could feel it learning, _ fascinating experience. you could feel it learning, incredible. - fascinating experience. you could feel it learning, incredible. give. feel it learning, incredible. give me a comparison to the kind of things you have been offered in your lifetime? i things you have been offered in your lifetime? :, things you have been offered in your lifetime? ., ., ., , , ., lifetime? i have not worn upper arm rosthetics lifetime? i have not worn upper arm prosthetics for _ lifetime? i have not worn upper arm prosthetics for most _ lifetime? i have not worn upper arm prosthetics for most of _ lifetime? i have not worn upper arm prosthetics for most of my - lifetime? i have not worn upper arm prosthetics for most of my life, - prosthetics for most of my life, although i did as a child. the reason for that is that i prefer the option of dexterity and touch but also it is because they have always been quite basic and tended to only perform one function and need but what we are seeing now with the new generation of bionic arms of which

this is one, they are more versatile and this has individualfinger to control —— finger control and you can pick things up and down and the range of tasks you can do now is a person without arms, with these bionics and technologies, is expanding at a rapid pace, really. sensitivity needed for hand movements and grip, it is incredible. the advances are coming so fast so what are they saying about the timeline? what is also incredible, nothing fitted internally with the skull? it is completely — internally with the skull? it 3 completely noninvasive, and a lot of the really advanced mine controlled ones require some sort of surgery or implant but this doesn't. in terms of timeframes, they are testing this and collecting data at the moment and collecting data at the moment and it is at an early stage but they are hoping to have regulatory filings in the us to get this to market some time next year. tech

companies are optimistic with their timeframes so we will see whether it sticks but maybe by the end of next year we might see these out in the wild, so to speak.— wild, so to speak. absently fascinating. _ wild, so to speak. absently fascinating. thanks - wild, so to speak. absently fascinating. thanks for - wild, so to speak. absently i fascinating. thanks forjoining wild, so to speak. absently - fascinating. thanks forjoining us. —— absolutely. now if you like photography you'll love this next item. in many parts of the northern hemisphere you should be able to see a full moon tomorrow. photographers will obviously be out in force but no one will come up, with a better shot than this. rio's iconic, christ the redeemer statue, seemingly holding the moon. it took leonardo sens three years to successfully pull it off and i've wanted to talk to him, ever since i saw the picture. i caught up with him this week and he told me, what it was like, to finally capture that moment. translation:

the moment that i took the picture, i got ready. i knew the day and the time that the moon would be right there on top of christ the redeemer. i put the camera on timer and i was on the beach. that's where i took the picture from. and it wasn't until i came back home that i actually saw the pictures that i finally got, that picture that i had been long waiting for. and it was incredible. how long had you been trying to actually get that shot? i had been taking pictures like that for a long time, about ten years, but i had always worked with a long range camera. it wasn't until i actually bought a tele camera that i started getting more accurate pictures, more perfect pictures. so my first picture of that kind was back in 2021. then in 2022 it was very cloudy so i couldn't get that picture of the moon on top of christ the redeemer.

and it wasn't until 2023, last year, that the sky was clear and it was very, very early in the morning, which is the perfect timing for that kind of picture that i finally got it. give me an idea of the misses that you had, the problems that you had, the times where it just wouldn't work. it is important to say that the the moon travels very fast when it's on top of the christ the redeemer. so this was a problem back then. a mirror to right or to your left can change it all. when the moon touches the hands of the christ the redeemer. i only have a0 seconds to position myself, put the camera on the tripods and take the pictures.

otherwise, ijust miss it. and that's what happened back then. so in 2023, all the conditions were perfect. and just give me a bit more of an idea, how far away are you? how many shots do you manage to fire off in those a0 seconds? how much maths was involved in trying to work out the exact placement of where you were? i'm11km from the place where where i took the picture. i used an app on my phone that indicates the position of the moon. but once i arrived at the place 11km away from the statue, i had to prepare myself. and there's not much involved in that. i had to trust my instincts. i had to rely on on the visuals so i could get the perfect picture. you must have been stunned by the response, the reaction you've had to this picture. articles have been written. photographers have contacted you. i mean, give me an idea

of what it's been like. i was amazed by the global repercussion of my picture. i got a lot of interviews, interview requests from all over the world. a lot of people have complimented me for my picture. but what i would particularly say that i was mostly amazed by was that people were really encouraged and inspired by my picture. i was sent a lot of paintings of my pictures. and also people would, for instance, try to repeat my picture in different settings. there was even a group of photographers who travelled to rio to try to take the same picture.

so when you see that photo now, do you smile, think, wow, i did it after all that time. yeah. it is a personal achievement for me in the world that we live in. one could potentially get the same picture using artificial intelligence, but what i did was art. it conveyed my passion for photography. and that's what i would say — i think it is the art of capturing those fantastic moments in nature that makes me so passionate about what i do. alexei navalny�*s mother has refused

the ultimatum given to her by the authorities, we will have more on that next hour. we also have more on the unexploded bomb in plymouth. hello there. we haven't got the persistent rain today, but there are still quite a few showers around for western areas and some developing inland further east, as well, as the cloud has tended to increase. we've also got some chillier air today, so temperatures come the early evening probably sitting at six or seven degrees. it will get cold quite quickly. we still have some showers around, but most of those inland will fade away. we'll keep some going around these western coasts and some heavier showers come into the south—west of england. there could even be a bit of winteriness over dartmoor, as well. it will be a colder night more widely. we had a frost last

night in scotland. it will be very cold in the north—east of scotland and temperatures close to freezing elsewhere, as well. some mist and fog patches in the midlands in particular in the morning. otherwise, some sunshine around. as the cloud builds up, we'll see a scattering of showers developing here and there. most of the showers running away from south—west england heading into the south—east of england by the afternoon. temperature—wise, still nine, maybe even ten degrees, so on a par with what we had today. the winds are going to be very light. there's going to be hardly a breath of wind for the six nations rugby, the game in dublin and then at murrayfield, where there could be one or two showers around here. the sun setting on another chilly evening and some frost is likely again on saturday night. but not towards the south—west because here we've got this area of low pressure coming in, bringing some wetter, windier weather. the position is still subject to change. it looks like the rain may be a bit further north, into more of southern england, especially later on in the day,

by which time it will be turning quite windy. elsewhere, a lot of dry weather. there may well be a lot of cloud around as well. most of the sunshine in the east, one or two showers in the far north—west of scotland. again, those temperatures typically 8—9. let's look at that area of low pressure for the start of next week. it's going to track its way into continental europe. still hanging around towards the south—east. a lot more isobars, the winds will be stronger for many of us, but there will be a lot of dry weather. some cloud coming into northern scotland. most of the cloud will be across east anglia and the south—east, where we've still got the chance of some rain hanging on through the day. it's across these areas that it will be particularly windy. strong to gale force winds are quite likely, which will, of course, make it feel that bit colder. we're still in the same sort of air mass. temperatures around average for the time of year at 8-9c.
