does play on his mind. if we make a mistake, if we become blase or complacent with our decision making or things that we do, there is a possibility of dying. graham, chris and dorjee and the sherpa team, we summited sunday morning and we climbed past three bodies. and that really keeps you focused and that really keeps you sharp. so you've got to be totally on your game. and, only 50 years young, he still is. paul hawkins, bbc news. that's where we're going ultimately. time for a look at the weather. and i love that blue sky! some of us are getting to see those blue skies and where we do have them in the north of scotland it is feeling warm with temperatures in northern

scotland well up into the 20s. but it is not sunny everywhere, parts of eastern england seeing a lot of cloud and some splashes of rain. also across parts of northern and eastern england with a slow—moving weather front bringing outbreaks of light and patchy rain through the afternoon. further south and west, northern ireland, wales and south—west of england a mixture of sunny spells and showers. a decent amount of scotland, of sunshine across scotland. as we head through this evening and tonight the weather front still bringing in some cloud and splashes of rain. some mist and merck lingering along eastern coast as well. where we have clear skies overnight some fog patches could develop and cooler than recent nights for some of us. but still temperatures holding up between eight and ii temperatures holding up between eight and 11 degrees. another pulse

of heavy rain tomorrow most likely across parts of east anglia, the north midlands and then running into the north of wales. to the north of that another day of warm sunshine in the highlands but with the potential of the odd shower or thunderstorm to break out through the afternoon. some of those affecting northern ireland, parts of south—west scotland and far north of england. and further south we had that band of wet weather and to the south of that sunny spells and some sharp showers but in the sunny spells temperatures up to 19 or 20 c. looking ahead to friday, still the lingering weather front in place this time bringing patchy rain across central parts of the uk. either side spells of sunshine and the odd shower but cooling off a little in the far north of scotland. and that trend continues into the weekend, we find ourselves between weather systems, nothing really pushing things along. but high

pressure trying to build in from the west so actually a lot of dry weather across the northern half of uk but as i say cooler than it has been across some northern and western parts of scotland. further south we will see more showers and even longer spells of rain plus the odd heavy downpour with sunny spells in between making it feel quite warm. and that's bbc news at one. now it's time to join our colleagues for the news where you are — goodbye. hello, i'm anne—marie batson, live from the bbc sport centre. coming up on this programme: manchester city edge closer to the premier league title, but is it turmoil at tottenham? their manager claims the club's foundations are "really fragile" after defeat. can chelsea can take a significant step to a seventh wsl title, under emma hayes, this evening?

and excitement is building ahead of the historic heavyweight boxing bout between tyson fury and 0leksandr usyk in saudi arabia. manchester city may have taken a step towards a unprecedented fourth consecutive premier league title last night with a 2—0 defeat of tottenham hotspur but after that defeat for spurs manager ange postecoglou took something of a swipe at the club saying "the foundations are really fragile." to discuss more on this we'lljoin bbc football reporter simon stone. simon, let's talk about manchester city. arsenal fans hoping for a favour from their great rivals will have been left disappointed, but is it inevitiable?

well, i think most people would say manchester city would beat tottenham, tottenham have not been playing particularly well. manchester city have been on a really, really impressive run. the interesting thing, i suppose, from the perspective of arsenal, is having wanted one rival to do them a favour in tottenham, they are now looking at their final hope, another local rival in west ham, who go to the etihad stadium on the final day. the bad news for arsenal is that west ham have won once there in 2015 in almost 20 years. i think it is a stretch to think west ham might stop manchester city winning the title on sunday. 140 manchester city winning the title on sunda . ., . . , manchester city winning the title on sunda . ., ., ., , ., , _ sunday. no manager is ever happy after defeat. _ sunday. no manager is ever happy after defeat, but _ sunday. no manager is ever happy after defeat, but there _ sunday. no manager is ever happy after defeat, but there seemed - sunday. no manager is ever happy after defeat, but there seemed to | sunday. no manager is ever happy i after defeat, but there seemed to be after defeat, but there seemed to be a lot bothering angela buster called blue. he has earned such praise for

his work and has been liked by the fans. i think he completely missed red the fans not wanting the title to be given to arsenal, and that, i think, is the underlying point of the words he came out with after the game. the words he came out with after the name. . , the words he came out with after the iame_ ., , f~ the words he came out with after the name. j~ ., , ., game. the last 48 hours has revealed to me that the — game. the last 48 hours has revealed to me that the foundations _ game. the last 48 hours has revealed to me that the foundations are - to me that the foundations are fragile — to me that the foundations are fra . ile. ., to me that the foundations are frauile. ., ., ,, ., to me that the foundations are l fragile-_ that to me that the foundations are - fragile._ that is fragile. how do you mean? that is how i feel- — fragile. how do you mean? that is how i feel- i— fragile. how do you mean? that is how i feel. ijust _ fragile. how do you mean? that is how i feel. ijust think— fragile. how do you mean? that is how i feel. i just think that - fragile. how do you mean? that is how i feel. i just think that is - how i feel. ijust think that is what — how i feel. ijust think that is what the _ how i feel. ijust think that is what the last 48 hours have revealed, a fair bit to me, and that is fine, _ revealed, a fair bit to me, and that is fine, it_ revealed, a fair bit to me, and that is fine, itiust— revealed, a fair bit to me, and that is fine, itjust means going back to the drawing — is fine, itjust means going back to the drawing board with something. yes, the drawing board with something. yes. i_ the drawing board with something. yes. ijust— the drawing board with something. yes, ijust think he didn't really understand that there were tottenham fans almost wanting arsenal not to succeed, even at the expense of them, who at that time still had a

chance of qualifying for the champions league, they have still got a job to do against sheffield united on sunday to secure a place in european football next season. i think that ange postecoglou is scratching his head at the work he has got to do over the summer. find has got to do over the summer. and briefl , has got to do over the summer. and briefly. aston _ has got to do over the summer. and briefly, aston villa will be celebrating. they have guaranteed a champions league football next season. , , . champions league football next season. , ., ., season. this is an amazing achievement, _ season. this is an amazing achievement, unai- season. this is an amazing achievement, unai emeryl season. this is an amazing l achievement, unai emery is season. this is an amazing - achievement, unai emery is almost known as the europa league specialist. he has gone into aston villa and has transformed the club, and for the first time, since they won the tournament in the 1980s, they now can look at the competition in the european cup, all of the champions league now, that is something that they can showcase. the expanded champions league next season, they will have at least eight games in that competition next

brendan rogers�* side did lose at rugby park when the sides played each other back in december, while kilmarnock also held them to a draw at celtic park in february. it had looked at one stage last night that celtic might be confirmed as champions without playing, after rangers found themselves 2—0 down against dundee. but they fought back to win 5—2, with scott wright scoring twice late on. they must now hope kilmarnock can do them a favour later this evening. chelsea boss emma hayes says she wants to "enjoy this week as much as possible" as she prepares to bid farewell to the club. the blues beat bristol city 8—0 last time out and are currently second in the women's super league table behind manchester city. victory against tottenham tonight — which is their game in hand and is live on bbc four — would see them go top ahead of their final match of the season away at manchester united on saturday. iam going i am going to enjoy being in this position, you know, you don't often be in a situation where you are competing for a title going into the

last two days of the season, and for those of us who have won titles, we know how hard it is. so, i am happy to be in the position that we are in, and you know, i know that we have got two tough games, but yes, i am looking forward to enjoying the girls. excitement is building in riyhad today as we edge ever closer to the historic tyson fury vs 0leksandr usyk bout. excitement is building in riyhad today as we edge ever closer to the historic tyson fury vs 0leksandr usyk bout. for the first time in 25 years one of them will become the first undisputed world heavyweight champion since lennox lewis in 1999. ukraninian fighter usyk is putting his three belts on the line in saudi arabia on saturday, with fury bringing his wbc belt to the table. somebody will be walking away with all of them for the first time and the winner will forever see their name etched into history. this is the biggest fight of the 21st—century, first time ever that four belts have been on the line. all of the belts will be unified on

saturday night, and we will find out who is the number one heavyweight in the world. in a fight involving two undefeated heavyweights in their prime. not a guy handing over the batter onto a younger man, in their prime. brilliant fighters, both of them, and we are going to see something extra special here in riyadh. as part of mental health awareness week we're exploring the role of exercise. a new survey published by sport england reinforces the link between physical activity and wellbeing. people who do 150 minutes of exercise a week scored their life higher than those who are inactive. but can exercise help those who face some of the most severe forms of mental illness? joe wilson has this report. james lindsay is active. sport surrounds him, yoga on the floor, running medals on the wall, the balance of his life. i always enjoyed doing pe at school. i didn't appreciate it until i got mentally ill. how it can make you feel good and it can help you deal

with stress and kind of stay well. i've got schizoaffective disorder now and i've had two episodes of psychosis. the main thing that helps me is my medication, which i'm on the right kind of anti—psychotic now, taking the right daily dosage and then also helps me is like exercise and just talking about it to be honest. james has completed the london marathon. more people than ever before took part in the race this year. but you don't have to aim for 26 miles. exercise can be a walk in the park, a place to meet mel. she runs programmes for people with severe mental illness who take essential medication, who experience side effects. the stark reality is, unfortunately, people living with a severe mental illness die on average 15 to 20 years earlier than the general population, and that's largely down to the poor physical health. we need to look at how we can use physical activity to combat medication, which can have quite significant side effects. so it's about how can we incorporate any kind of body movement into our everyday life?

and there is another barrier to consider. stigma. conditions like james's are still often misunderstood. sometimes words are used in the media that maybe inappropriately, like we're watching a youtube video the other night and the title of the youtube video was "psychotic" in capital letters, like it was a sentence and then this person's psychotic. and so it's that negative connotation, whereas actually people with psychosis are like unwell and they need help and they're actually not dangerous. i've been lucky that i'm kind of part of sports and exercise groups which encourage chap understanding which encourage chat. understanding whyjames exercises is a way of understanding his life, his mental illness, and his route to wellness. in the last few minutes, aryna sabalenka has reached the italian

open, defeating eln hasta banco. you can get all the latest sports news from the bbc sport app, or at our website — that's bbc.co.uk/sport. from me and the rest of the team at the bbc sport centre, goodbye. you're watching bbc news. i'm nicky schiller. the former first minster of northern ireland baroness arlene foster has said she accepts responsibility for how the executive handled the covid pandemic. the ex—dup leader was giving evidence at the covid inquiry and spoke of her "deep regret" over the covid response. this was arlene foster's response to suggestions that she passed blame onto the department of health. i don't think it was the department of health's fault for what happened during the first wave

of the pandemic. it was the virus that caused the damage to northern ireland, and we were trying to deal with what was coming at it because nobody had any appreciation of the scale of what was coming towards us. and actually, in mid—march of the meeting we had with the republic of ireland ministers, in those minutes, you can see that the chief medical officer, our chief medical officer, is saying that he felt that the peak was around 14 weeks from there. so wrongly and i say absolutely wrongly, we felt that we had time and we didn't have time. and that's a source of great regret. let's speak to our ireland correspondent, sarah girvin, who is in belfast. another big morning at the inquiry and the former first minister rejecting suggestions the northern ireland executive "sleepwalked" into the pandemic.
