police had been braced for further violence, with around 100 far right protests anticipated, but they failed to materialise. three taylor swift concerts in vienna this week have been cancelled over fears of an islamist attack. the amount paid to women who donate their eggs for fertility treatments will rise to nearly a thousand pounds. but experts warn against doing so just to make money in the face of cost of living pressures. i'll have the details. a whisker away from gold for matthew hudson smith, who is pipped on the line, in the men's 400 metre at the paris olympics, missing out on victory byjust four hundredths of a second. good morning. it is a bright start in some eastern areas but in the west it is cloudy and damp. later that will be replaced by heavier rain and strengthening winds. all of that is

pushing northwards and eastwards. details shortly. good morning. it's thursday, the 8th of august. our main story. thousands of anti—racism protesters have rallied in cities and towns across england after a week of rioting and disorder. gatherings were seen in newcastle, birmingham, liverpool, brighton, sheffield and london. police had been prepared for further violence by rioters after events in the past week. apart from some isolated incidents, the marches have been largely peaceful, with demonstrators chanting, "refugees are welcome here". our correspondent, joe inwood, has this report from bristol. the city had been braced for trouble. so this part of bristol is where a couple of immigration lawyers are based, whose addresses have been leaked online. and there was a real fear there could be a far right protest taking place here today. but we've been here the last couple of hours, and there's not a sign of that. instead, something very

different has happened. chanting. thousands of anti—racism protesters, trade unionists, members of the local black and asian community, students, took over the streets in what was broadly a good natured evening, but one that sent a message. i feel ashamed for our country right now. it'sjust, we're not representing ourselves in any sense of a manner that's, like, admirable at all. you can see a lot of places are boarded up, so there's been a lot of fear about what could happen. and itjust felt really important that we were here to, yeah, to protect our community. it was a picture repeated across the country. walthamstow in london saw vast crowds gathered, as in bristol, to oppose the far right. while there were colourful scenes in west london. refugees are welcome here! in sheffield, police had prepared

for trouble, but none came. in croydon, although there were a few arrests, things were generally peaceful. while a march between two mosques in accrington was greeted by people drinking at the pub. and this was the scene in newcastle. of course, protect our mosques because we believe this is our house and this is house of god. and i think for them to stand up and really want to go around and try to destroy our mosques is something really heinous. there were some isolated incidents. aldershot was seemingly one of the few places the right wing protests materialised. in brighton, they were so outnumbered they needed police protection. nazi scum, off our streets! according to the man who used to oversee the police, it's not only the counter—protests that kept the far right off the streets, but also swift prosecutions. the techniques and the instruments

that the police have now for identifying people, even with face coverings, i won't go into detail, are very, very advanced. and also, it is an offence to have a face covering — to maintain a face covering — if ordered to take it off by a police officer. so, um, i think that the community has come together and i think it's an extremely positive step. back in bristol, and while there was a heavy police presence all evening, by 10pm there had only been one arrest. so this is castle park in bristol, and it's here on saturday that there were running battles between the far right and anti—fascist protesters. and there had been real fears that those scenes could be replicated tonight. but as you can see, nothing has materialised, and it seems across the country that picture has been repeated. and both government, and the protesters on the street tonight, will be hoping that this could be a turning point in this disorder. joe inwood, bbc news in bristol.

jessica lanejoins us now from sheffield. good morning. there was a far right to protest anticipated in the city last night, wasn't there?- last night, wasn't there? yeah, that's right- _ last night, wasn't there? yeah, that's right. we _ last night, wasn't there? yeah, that's right. we are _ last night, wasn't there? yeah, that's right. we are outside - last night, wasn't there? yeah, that's right. we are outside the headquarters of the south yorkshire police. everyone here will be very pleased with the way things turned out yesterday. as you say, they were expecting there to be potentially two far—right protest in sheffield, one in the city centre in the afternoon yesterday, and one last night outside the offices of a company that offers advice on immigration applications and visas. neither of those protests happen. instead what did happen was around 1500 people from antiracism groups gathered outside those offices instead. we understand the road was blocked at times. that was very peaceful. police inside here will be

wondering if the fact it was peaceful is largely down to the fact they had a lot of extra officers out very visible yesterday in sheffield. they were hoping that would deter some of the violence. police here also had extra powers. they had stop and search powers, powers to move people on from certain areas in the city centre, and also those powers to tell people to remove anything covering their faces. there to tell people to remove anything covering theirfaces. there have also of course been people appearing in court already this week after that violent disorder that we saw at the weekend, both here in sheffield and in rotherham, just a few miles away. we have got more people expected in court in the coming days, losing two teenagers expected to appear in a youth court. jussier, thank you. 0ur political correspondent hannah millerjoins us now from westminster. morning. 0f morning. of course there was a real political concern about what had been happening over the past week. the picture from last night very different? a, ~'

different? morning. i think in downin: different? morning. i think in downing street _ different? morning. i think in downing street this - different? morning. i think in downing street this morning | different? morning. ithink in - downing street this morning there is a sense of relief but also a kind of awareness. they say it may not be job done. they are not going to count their chickens to soon, you might say. it has been their strategy all along, that the justice needs to be seen to be done. and this idea that if people are quickly brought before the courts, and quickly sentenced, that would put others off from taking to the streets. and there are more people appearing in court today, some of those hearings will actually be televised as well. downing street very keen for that to happen. they are also pleased with some of the newspaper front pages, are also pleased with some of the newspaperfront pages, which newspaper front pages, which prominently newspaperfront pages, which prominently feature the mugshots of some of those who were involved in the riots as well. i think anything that helps to highlight the punishments that are being handed out, downing street c as being helpful. they have suggested to us that if this were to continue, if it

wasn't the end of it, then they do have more measures up their sleeve, although they won't tell us what those would be. i think this whole episode has raised questions about the role of social media companies, disinformation, what to do about people who feel alienated and don't trust society, but they are not going to get into those until they are confident this has really come to an end. thank you very much. eight minutes past six. naga, we are getting a clearer picture this morning what happened across the whole of the uk, but you are going to focusing on northern ireland now? yes, iam. in northern ireland, the stormont executive will meet today to condemn the disorder seen on the streets of belfast this week. police came under attack in the east of the city again last night, where objects were thrown and fires were lit. chris page has this report. it's been a week of tension, disorder and fear in belfast. the first signs of trouble happened after this anti—immigration demonstration

and counter—protest on saturday. businesses owned by people from a migrant background were attacked in the south of the city. since then, there have been more hate crimes in other areas, such as assaults and attacks on property. this morning, it's understood northern ireland's chief constable will brief ministers in the power sharing devolved government. and then, there'll be a special sitting of the northern ireland assembly here at stormont. members are being recalled from their summer break to discuss a motion condemning the violence. the joint leader of the stormont coalition says there's no excuse for the trouble. we acknowledge that there are concerns. i have no doubt that many of those concerns are very genuinely held, and that is about access to our public services, access to affordable housing in particular. but those are issues that we need to address through government, through democratic means. it is absolutely, nothing is achieved in terms of violence, particularly that racist targeting towards

those people who have set up businesses. health workers from overseas are also feeling vulnerable. they make up a significant proportion of nhs staff. it makes you feel worried and fearful of even going about your daily lives. i mean, if you can't go out to do stuff, what's the point of coming to work and earning money? and if our children can't go to work safely, what's the point of coming and working here? and that's a bit worrying. i've been here a long time, more than 25 years in northern ireland, and this is the first time i've noticed in this level of violence against people. people from migrant communities were offered support at this rally in londonderry last night. the vast majority in northern ireland hoped the political response to the turmoil will help to stop more disturbances. chris page, bbc news. three upcoming taylor swift concerts in vienna have been cancelled because of a possible security threat. the shows were part of the singer's eras tour and had been

due to start tonight. two people have been arrested on suspicion of planning islamist attacks on large events in the area. bethany bell reports from vienna. # are you ready for it?# taylor swift was supposed to hold the first of three concerts in vienna tonight, as part of the eras tour. but the shows have all been cancelled after two people were arrested on suspicion of planning an attack. yesterday, austrian police arrested a 19—year—old austrian man who lived in the town of ternitz, south of vienna. they found chemical substances at his home. nearby houses had to be evacuated while the search was going on. another person was later arrested in vienna. police say they were planning an islamist attack.

translation: according to the current state - of the investigation, the suspects radicalised themselves on the internet. the 19—year—old citizen swore allegiance to the current leader of is at the beginning ofjuly. subsequently, the suspects carried out concrete preparatory acts for a terrorist attack. police say the suspects had planned to target large events in vienna, including the taylor swift concerts. investigations are continuing. the organiser, barracuda music, said it had no choice but to cancel the shows for everyone's safety. it said all tickets would be automatically refunded. 65,000 people were supposed to attend each one of these concerts. the organisers say, of course safety has to come first, but there are a lot of disappointed

fans in vienna right now. bethany bell, bbc news vienna. the general medical council is warning that health services in the uk are in a critical state, and those who work in them are at breaking point. in an annual review by the regulator, based on a survey of more than 4,000 doctors, it said that many staff were cutting their hours and turning down extra work. it described the findings were very concerning. ajewish security charity has said that reports of anti—semitic incidents in the uk rose to a record in the first half of this year. the community security trust, which aims to protectjewish people, says there were almost 2,000 incidents from january to june — double the number recorded during the same period in 2023. two months after blasting off on a test mission

to the international space station, two american astronauts are still unable to return home after problems with a boeing starliner spacecraft means they can't be brought back to earth. barry wilmore and sunita williams may now end up spending more than eight months — rather than eight days — on board the iss. 0ur north america correspondent peter bowes reports. three, two, one, ignition. and oift—off of starliner and atlas five. - it was expected to be a short stay at the international space station for butch wilmore and sunita williams. but the test pilots for boeing's new starliner are in for a longer trip than they bargained for. eight days could turn into eight months, because their capsule has been deemed unsafe to return to earth. problems with its propulsion system emerged during starliner�*s initial approach to the space station injune, and it still hasn't been fixed. no decision has been made yet,

but it looks like the capsule will eventually return to earth, but, to be on the safe side, without the astronauts. they may have to hitch a lift with rival company spacex. the capsule crew dragon is due to head to the space station later this year, and talks are under way with nasa to leave two empty seats so the stranded astronauts can get home on the return trip. they've already been stuck in space for two months, but the pair could be in for quite a wait, since the crew dragon won't be heading back to earth until next february. peter bowes, bbc news, los angeles. there was heartbreak for team gb�*s matthew hudson—smith after he missed out on 0lympic 400 metre gold by just four—hundredths of a second. success on the track and in the velodrome mean team gb has passed the milestone of winning more than 1,000 0lympic medals in all the summer and winter games. 0ur sports correspondent, joe lynskey, has more.

he looked set for gold until the last few strides. the line wouldn't come. it needed to come quicker for matt hudson—smith. for matt hudson—smith this silver took courage. but it felt cruel. just to get here he had been through near misses and tough moments. he had almost quit athletics to become an electrician. but hudson—smith hit full power in the 400 metre final, a race no british man had won since paris 1924. hudson—smith is still in the front. can he get to it? it is hall's gold. quincy hall, the american, found something extraordinary, from fourth to the front in a surge for the line. hudson—smith had run the fifth fastest time in history. consolation came from those he hadn't thought he'd see. yeah, i saw my family. i didn't even know they were here. it was a bit of a shock, really.

honestly, sometimes the journey is better than the outcome, and it's been a hell of a journey and i'm just grateful. came away with an olympic silver. how many people in the world can say that? and he got me on the line, but it happens, you know, i don't mind. for four brutal track kilometres britain and australia went wheel to wheel. the men's team pursuit gold medal race, the gap at the last lap less than two tenths of a second. oh, it's going to go down to the wire. but the brits will never know if they might have hauled them in. ethan hayter, exhausted, slipped off the saddle. the long ride for gold had gone off course at the end. really, i gave too much and my whole body went weak and i couldn't hold myself on the bike any more. i don't know how i stayed up, but, yeah, sorry to these guys. but i think we gave everything and we can be proud of that silver medal. in the women's team pursuit gb took the bronze, coming back to beat italy by more than two seconds. a short amount of time to find the long road to the olympics.

andy mcdonald was here at his first games, at 51 years old. everybody is cheering and clapping for andy mcdonald. mcdonald is a us skateboarding icon, but his dad was born in luton. he is the first man to compete for team gb in this sport. and most of his competitors were younger than his first child. mcdonald didn't reach the final and his olympics end here. it's the olympics! joe lynskey, bbc news. pleased to sayjessica ennis—hill will bejoining us later this morning thinking and talking about some of the successes and the drama. she was there yesterday evening watching matthew hudson—smith run, but also today, katarina johnson—thompson begins her quest for gold in the heptathlon. she would be looking ahead to that.

i was like hearing about the sports that people didn't know about before. we are looking at bouldering today. another of those sports. sophie is going to be out and about. carol can tell us which exports she is into as well. morning. good morning. my favourite is definitely the gymnastics but they have all been amazing. good morning, everyone. it is a murky start. if you are getting up in the west, it is cloudy, damp, murky. but in the east we have got some brighter conditions. especially north—east scotland, central parts of england, eastern and south—eastern england. however, the cloud will build through the day and we will see some rain later. you can see where we have the sunshine. the cloud romping in from the west. mark or continuing. it quite humid in the south—west. some heavy rain pushes and across northern ireland, northern england and southern and central scotland. it will be quite windy across england and wales

today. temperatures ranging from 15 in the north to 23 in the south. as we head through the evening and overnight, the rain continues to push northwards. we have the tail end of a weather front across southern areas are producing some cloud, spots of rain. in between, some clearer skies, scattered showers, especially in the north—west. once again it is going to be a breezy night. it is not going to be cold. overnight lows, 11 to 18, possibly19 in going to be cold. overnight lows, 11 to 18, possibly 19 in the south—east. tomorrow we start off with cloud and spots of rain. that clears and they will be some showers behind. generally speaking tomorrow is the day of sunshine and scattered showers, mostly in the north—west. windy here as well. especially with exposure. these are the temperatures, 15 to 25. it will get warmer over the weekend for some parts of england and wales. even very warm and parts of england and wales. even very warm and hearty. i like that. thanks. 21 minutes past

six. the future success of a racehorse can be predicted when it isjust one—month old, by looking at its gut health. veterinary scientists at the university of surrey have discovered that by testing bacteria in the digestive system of very young racehorses, they can see how well they are likely to perform on the track. our science correspondent victoria gill explains. atjust a few months old, these thoroughbred foals are neverfarfrom mum, although they're very curious about the world. and at this stables in surrey, young racehorses have been involved in a scientific study that's revealed clues about whether they'll be a future winner. this little nibbly one is just four months old, but she's basically an athlete in training. and what this research has shown is that even at one month old, her future success can actually be seen inside her body, in her gut. the scientists just need a small sample from the stable. it's as simple as that.

all we need for the tests that we're going to do are a faecal sample from the foal. in this container are all the microbes or bacteria that live in a young racehorse's gut. the researchers used a dna test to reveal all the different kinds of bacteria. they regularly took and tested faecal samples from 52 horses over the first three years of the animals' lives. the diversity of gut bacteria in foals at four weeks old, so really young, that predicts their future health and theirfuture racing performance. so the more different types of bacteria in the foal�*s gut, the healthier... correct. ..the more successful? correct, yes. what does this show us about how important the gut is forjust overall physical health? absolutely critical. there is a growing understanding that what happens in human guts, in animal guts, in horses, has a profound influence on many aspects of health and disease.

researchers are now investigating which helpful bacteria they could give to very young foals as an early boost for their future health. we're always looking to find out ways in which we can produce as healthy a horse as possible, and one that's going to perform well on the track. so anything that we can investigate further into how how we can get them to be in the best shape they can be, is a really good opportunity for us. the research shows that, like so many animals, these elite athletes of the equine world are driven by the trillions of bacteria that live inside their bodies. victoria gill, bbc news. it's fascinating, how science progresses. absolutely. let's take a look at today's papers. many include the same photo of anti—racist protestors gathering in walthamstow in east london. the mirror says thousands of demonstrators turned out across england to thwart far—right thugs. the paper says people

gathered peacefully, but there are fears more riots are being planned. the daily express leads with the same photograph of anti—racist demonstrators gathering outside an immigration centre in walthamstow. the headline reads, "united britain stands firm against thugs". the is front page looks at the unrest earlier in the week that led to counter protests. it says that the government could impose football bans on those involved in rioting. it is coming up to 25 minutes past six. a subject now to think about. the amount of money paid to women who donate their eggs for use in fertility treatment will increase this year. ben's looking at this for us this morning. this brings about questions about the ethics of this, of paying for this, but also, those who are in desperate need when they are trying to start a family and finding it difficult. this is being discussed now. yes, it

is a really sensitive matter. it's, of course illegal to pay anyone for eggs themselves. what we are talking about is the official compensation that women get when they help to start a family. good morning. around 70,000 children have been born as a result of a donor — both egg and spurn since 1991. the latest figures show more than 1,700 women signed up to be egg donors for the first time in 2022. it's a number that's been steadily rising, and the highest since records began in the 90s. we spoke to charlotte, who's donating her eggs for the second time. it felt quite full—circle for me. i meant i d f baby, my sister is an idf baby. my mum and dad went through years of tests and trials

and treatments, and eventually worked. to get pregnant with ivf. so yes, it felt like a nice end to that process. having spent many years sort of talking about not wanting kids, i was like, sort of talking about not wanting kids, iwas like, i sort of talking about not wanting kids, i was like, i don't want kids, but i also don't want to stop other people from it. and if i can help that process, yeah, great. people like charlotte, who donate their eggs, currently receive £750 for each cycle. that'll soon increase to £986. it's to cover time and travel expenses involved in attending clinics during the process, which is — for those not familiar with it — an invasive procedure involving sedation or general anaesthetic. this is the first increase since 2011. but increasing the level of compensation has led to worries some women may choose to donate simply for the money. in the uk there is no such thing as an anonymous donation. when a child

is born_ an anonymous donation. when a child is born from _ an anonymous donation. when a child is born from that donation, when they— is born from that donation, when they turn— is born from that donation, when they turn 18 they can apply to find out the _ they turn 18 they can apply to find out the details, the name, the last known _ out the details, the name, the last known address, the date of birth of that downer. so donation is something that really needs to be considered in terms of your future, the future — considered in terms of your future, the future of your family. though a fairly— the future of your family. though a fairly safe — the future of your family. though a fairly safe medical procedure, it is not without— fairly safe medical procedure, it is not without risk. you go through the first part _ not without risk. you go through the first part of — not without risk. you go through the first part of ivf treatment, it can be uncomfortable. there are lots of appointments in person. there are some _ appointments in person. there are some dangers, as there are with any medicai— some dangers, as there are with any medical procedure. demand for eggs is growing, but clinics say there's a shortage of donors — particularly for ethnic minority patients. nearly 90% of donors are white, only 3% are black. it's what encouraged yasmin to donate her eggs. people who cannot have children, they're not all white! it is upsetting to hear that maybe they will have to have a donor egg from a race that would not relate to them and would not look like them. and

it's difficult to raise a child in that context. and ifeel for them. and ifeel the need to be more awareness and spread so there is more likely hood of pse donors. we'd like to hear from you this morning. have you donated your eggs in the past? would the increase in compensation make you more likely to? get in touch in the usual ways — the details are on your screen now. obviously this is a very personal matter, so don't feel obliged to give your name, but we would love to hear from you. we will go through some of those later this morning. it would be fascinating to hear what people think. thank you. still to come on breakfast... as excitement builds for the olympic bouldering finals later this week, we're at a climbing centre in stockport to find out more about the sport, how it's judged and how you can give it a go yourself. i'v e i've seen it a few times. it's a fascinating sport to watch. spider's. look at that. this is the

one where they are spider people, aren't they? 6.0 seconds. quite incredible. we will find out more. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london. i'm alison earle. thousands of anti—racism campaigners took to the streets last night in a show of unity against the violent disorder over the past week. peaceful rallies were held in walthamstow, and also in finchley. the met police said more than a thousand officers were ready to respond to any unrest. but in the end, protests by far—right groups didn't happen. anyone who thinks that hating people is going to make their lives better, it's not. it's just a purely destructive behaviour and needs to stop. i'm really happy that the community came out in solidarity and basically scared them away, technically.

so they knew that they can't do that rubbish here. new figures have revealed transport for london spent nearly 22 million pounds cracking down on fare dodging over the last year, but only collected just over a million back in penalty charges. tfl said its identified 414 people who often avoid paying for all or part of theirjourneys. it's using enforcement teams and cctv to help find offenders, but said the harm caused is "much greater than the missed cost of a ticket" as culprits are often abusive to staff. a special set of stamps is being issued to celebrate the tower of london. royal mail has joined forces with historic royal palaces to create 10 different images. they aim to show the role the famous landmark has played throughout history from fortress to the home of the crown jewels. another day, and another work has appeared by street artist banksy. sticking with the animal theme, this time it's monkeys in brick lane.

it's the third mural banksy has claimed credit for this week after two elephants on a wall in chelsea on tuesday and a goat near kew bridge on monday. travel now, and let's see how the tube is faring. there's no service on the bakerloo line between queens park and harrow & wealdstone and a similar issue on that section of the overground. and severe delays on the district line. good morning. a bright start, at least for some of us this morning. a few sunny spells, but then the cloud will increase and we'll see some outbreaks of rain as we head further through the day. so short—lived sunshine this morning. clouds increasing from the west. some light patchy rain, some drizzle. one or two bursts could be a bit heavier. breezy through the afternoon and temperatures on the cool side around 22 celsius the maximum. then overnight tonight we're going to hang on to the cloud, but it is going to be a warm and humid night. temperatures perhaps in central london not dropping much below 18 or even 19 celsius. so quite uncomfortable for sleeping.

any remnants of that cloud tomorrow morning will drift away eastwards, bringing some sunshine through friday and temperatures tomorrow getting that little bit warmer, looking at a maximum of around 25 or even 26 celsius. as we head into the weekend, it is looking largely dry and fine and the temperatures getting warmer by the end of the weekend. high 20s into the first part of next week. we're looking at temperatures in the low 30s. there's lots more on our website and social media including the new sculpture outside britain's busiest railway station. that's it, i'm back in around half an hour. hello, this is breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. let's bring you up—to—date with what happened _ let's bring you up—to—date with what happened last night. thousands of police officers were on standby in preparation for potential unrest last night, but the overwhelming majority of events passed peacefully, with thousands of anti—racism demonstrators turning out at locations across england.

businesses boarded up windows and closed early after fears around 100 far—right events would be taking place. but the counter demonstrations in locations where far—right protests had been expected — including north london, bristol and newcastle — were largely peaceful. it comes as the crown prosecution service says around 140 people have been charged so far in relation to the riots and violent disorder in recent days. three men were jailed yesterday. 58—year—old derek drummond, was given a three—year sentence for punching a police officer during violence in southport. 29—year—old declan geiran, was jailed for two—and—a—half—years for violent disorder and setting fire to a police vehicle, while 41—year—old liam james riley was jailed for 20—months for violent disorder and racially aggravated abusive behaviour.

we'rejoined now from bristol by our correspondentjohn maguire. it is very much the morning after as there had been many concerns but a picture is emerging of a very different occasion. those thousands of protesters, and i know where you are, that was very much in evidence. yes, charlie, look, the wall says it all. love will always win. this is west street in bristol, rumoured to be the start of the demonstration because they are solicitors firms that help asylum seekers and that was the message that went out but i've never seen anything like this. the entire street is boarded up but now they are taking the boarding down after a very peaceful night. the street was absolutely packed last night with counter protesters and people saying what had been happening across the uk is wholly

unacceptable but you can see all of these businesses they are all boarded up and across the other side of the road, love is the way, it says and as far as the eye can see is boarded up but now this morning they are taking them down and this street is getting its life back. this is a ramen restaurant, a barbers, cafe is in restaurants, quite an eclectic place so things will get back to normal and there is obviously a cost to boarding up, a financial and social cost, but the sheer number, the number of people that turned out last night to say what has been going on is unacceptable shows that love will save the day, as it says everywhere, hope not hate. there is a music festival in bristol that takes place every year called love saves the day and that is what happened last night, no trouble at all but lots of people packed right the way across the street as far as the eye can see

get back to normal. these businesses like all across the uk have had a rotten time in the last few years so will want to get back to selling rahman and coffee and cutting air and getting things back to normal and getting things back to normal and reclaiming the streets is what they are doing. we're joined now by the former chief constable of durham police, mike barton. how long have you been in the constabulary? i how long have you been in the constabulary?— how long have you been in the constabulary? how long have you been in the constabula ? . ., , constabulary? i am now retired but i did serve 40 — constabulary? i am now retired but i did serve 40 years. _ constabulary? i am now retired but i did serve 40 years. you _ constabulary? i am now retired but i did serve 40 years. you have - constabulary? i am now retired but i did serve 40 years. you have had i did serve 40 years. you have had our fair did serve 40 years. you have had your fair share _ did serve 40 years. you have had your fair share of _ did serve 40 years. you have had your fair share of witnessing - your fair share of witnessing disturbances, riots, even. what is different this time around? how big a role in social media playing? massive. massive. when you see the coordinated — massive. massive. when you see the coordinated way that there were potentially 100 demonstrations across— potentially 100 demonstrations across the country, whereas i never had to _ across the country, whereas i never had to face — across the country, whereas i never had to face that. the police force now is _

in a dramatic collision, and heated confrontation as the men's 5 thousand metres heats, boiled over. he was in a good position to progress to the final, but as they entered the final stage of the race, mills and hay clashed, with the team gb runner being brought down. it left mills finishing in 18th place — but he was later advanced to the next round by the race referee. i got stepped out on as i was about to kick in the home straight and boom! yeah, french lad took me down. you had some words with him afterwards? what did you say? i'm probably not allowed to say. but there was more disruption in the means 5 thousand metres heats — the second race had just passed the halfway mark with four laps remaining and jakob ingebrigtsen, fresh from fourth in the 15 hundred metres, just managed to avoid a cameraman, who had wandered into the track focusing on the javelin event— unaware that the race was still ongoing. despite this, the norwegian still won the heat and booked a place in the finals on saturday. team gb surpassed the landmark of 1000 medals at the modern olympic games with three podium places yesterday, and there's chances to add more today. our sports reporter katie gornall is in paris this morning.

track there is british interest in the diving. jordan holden and jack laugher go in the final of the three metre springboard. jack laugher already has a bronze in the synchro and is trying for a fifth olympic medal and is one of teamgb's most consistent divers and just to tell you about what is happening at one of the most spectacular venues at the olympics, that is where the tae kwon do is taking place and we will see the two—time olympic champion jadejones get her olympics under today. she suffered a shock exit in tokyo so has something of a score to settle and if she makes it that far, the final in her division is this evening and look out for bradly sinden, world champion from tokyo who lost out on a gold medal in the dying seconds and it was so dramatic and i think he has a sense of unfinished business today and there are medals up for grabs in the

the team involved. edinburgh, and welcome to the fringe. my show attention seeker is a character comedy sketch show with a biscuit barrel, not another 69 sketch show. my show is called little beast. and this is willy wonka and the doctor factory. there's also a wonka magic show and two wonka musicals. there's a lot of willy wonka here. i think it's sort of a glasgow situation. have you heard about that? glasgow. you may remember it. the gloriously disappointing wonka chocolate experience. the images went round the world. especially this one of a very sad oompa loompa which inspired an american producer, richard kraft. so what is this show you're doing? okay, so what it is, is myself and the entire universe saw an image on social media of a really sad looking oompa loompa.

the sad oompa loompa, in a way, became a symbol around the world of "what the hell happened to my life?" and so since i kept asking the question, what's going on in that girl's head? i thought, there's only one way to answer what's going on in someone's head. it's a musical. a musical, of course. what else would it be, a musical. are you mad? i'm worried for you. willy's grand opening! but he's done it. and the star of the show? yes. it's the sad oompa loompa herself, kirsty patterson. it was a disaster. it's as bad as what they say it was, how it ended. but i was the last man standing, giving out the jelly beans. and the exact time when they took the picture, to be fair, was when i was seriously contemplating my life being like, "maybe i should just go and do something else?" number one tourist attraction in glasgow! it feels like a dream come true.

i mean, i don't think a lot of people can say they have a musical about them. she can't have one. who says i can't? the man with a funny hat. iwant one. and to add to it all, there's even a star appearance from the willy wonka movie from 1971, the original veruca salt. veruca, you were terrible. thank you so much. don't care how. i want it now. veruca has haunted me in a good way. um, you know, i wasn't quite the sad oompa loompa meme, but i have been a meme for many, many women. i want it now! so how many days rehearsal have you had so far? one. one? one. but back to the star of the moment, kirsty. and a little oompa loompa masterclass. could you do memem oompa loompa? of course. i kind of practice it many, many times. so you need your hips hip width

apart, nice and sturdy on the ground. look into the bottom left hand corner and you're just going todoa.... david sillitoe, bbc news, edinburgh. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. hello, good morning from bbc london. i'm alison earle. thousands of anti—racism campaigners took to the streets last night in a show of unity against the violent disorder over the past week. peaceful rallies were held in walthamstow and also in finchley. the met police said more than a thousand officers were ready to respond to any unrest. but in the end protests by far—right groups didn't happen. anyone who thinks that hating people is going to make their lives better, it's not. it's just a purely destructive behaviour and needs to stop. i'm really happy that the community came out in solidarity and basically scared them away, technically. so they knew that they can't do that rubbish here.

new figures have revealed transport for london spent nearly £22 million cracking down on fare dodging over the last year, but only collected just over a million back in penalty charges. tfl said its identified 414 people who often avoid paying for all or part of theirjourneys. it's using enforcement teams and cctv to help find offenders, but said the harm caused is much greater than the missed cost of a ticket as culprits are often abusive to staff. a special set of stamps is being issued to celebrate the tower of london. royal mail has joined forces with historic royal palaces to create ten different images. they aim to show the role the famous landmark has played throughout history, from fortress, to the home of the crown jewels. another day, and another work has appeared by street artist banksy. sticking with the animal theme, this time it's monkeys in brick lane. it's the third mural banksy has claimed credit for this week, after two elephants on a wall in chelsea on tuesday, and a goat near kew bridge on monday.

travel now, and let's see how the tube is faring. now onto the weather with kate. good morning. a bright start, at least for some of us this morning. a few sunny spells, but then the cloud will increase and we'll see some outbreaks of rain as we head further through the day. so short—lived sunshine this morning. clouds increasing from the west. some light patchy rain, some drizzle. one or two bursts could be a bit heavier. breezy through the afternoon and temperatures on the cool side around 22 celsius the maximum. then overnight tonight we're going to hang on to the cloud, but it is going to be a warm and humid night. temperatures perhaps in central london not dropping much below 18 or even 19 celsius. so quite uncomfortable for sleeping. any remnants of that cloud tomorrow morning will drift away eastwards, bringing some sunshine

through friday and temperatures tomorrow getting that little bit warmer, looking at a maximum of around 25 or even 26 celsius. as we head into the weekend, it is looking largely dry and fine and the temperatures getting warmer by the end of the weekend. high 20s into the first part of next week. we're looking at temperatures in the low 30s. there's lots more on our website and social media, including the new sculpture outside britain's busiest railway station. that's it, i'm back in around half an hour. good morning, welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. our headlines today. thousands of anti—racism demonstrators took to the streets of towns and cities across england in counter—protests against a recent of wave of riots. police had been braced for further violence,

with around 100 far right protests anticipated, but they failed to materialise. three taylor swift concerts in vienna this week have been cancelled over fears of an islamist attack. heartbreak for hudson smith at the paris olympics. he runs the fifth fastest time ever in the 400 metres, but is pipped on the line by the slimmest of margins. good morning. it isa it is a bright start in some central and eastern areas. a lot of low cloud and murk in the west. later, heavy rain from the west pushing north—eastward is accompanied by strong winds. details later in the programme. good morning. it's thursday, 8th august. our main story. in the last few minutes the metropolitan police commissioner, sir mark rowley, has said protecting communities is at the core of

policing, and officers have been sent around the country to deal with the most intense protests. thousands of anti—racism protesters have rallied in cities and towns across england after a week of rioting and disorder. gatherings were seen in newcastle, birmingham, liverpool, brighton, sheffield and london. police had been prepared forfurther violence by far—right rioters after events in the past week. apart from some isolated incidents, the marches have been largely peaceful, with demonstrators chanting, "refugees are welcome here". joe inwood has this report from bristol. the city had been braced for trouble. so this part of bristol is where a couple of immigration lawyers are based, whose addresses have been leaked online. and there was a real fear there could be a far right protest taking place here today. but we've been here the last couple of hours, and there's not a sign of that. instead, something very different has happened. smash the fash! thousands of anti—racism protesters, trade unionists, members

of the local black and asian community, students, took over the streets in what was broadly a good natured evening, but one that sent a message. i feel ashamed for our country right now. it'sjust, we're not representing ourselves in any sense of a manner that's, like, admirable at all. you can see a lot of places are boarded up, so there's been a lot of fear about what could happen. and itjust felt really important that we were here to, yeah, to protect our community. it was a picture repeated across the country. walthamstow in london saw vast crowds gathered, as in bristol, to oppose the far right. while there were colourful scenes in west london. refugees are welcome here! in sheffield, police had prepared for trouble, but none came. in croydon, although there were a few arrests, things were generally peaceful.

while a march between two mosques in accrington was greeted by people drinking at the pub. and this was the scene in newcastle. of course, protect our mosques because we believe this is our house and this is house of god. and i think for them to stand up and really want to go around and try to destroy our mosques is something really heinous. there were some isolated incidents. aldershot was seemingly one of the few places the right wing protests materialised. in brighton, they were so outnumbered they needed police protection. nazi scum, off our streets! according to the man who used to oversee the police, it's not only the counter—protests that kept the far right off the streets, but also swift prosecutions. these are criminals, they are thugs. they are not patriots. we have been

doing some dawn raids this morning, the people who are most violent in the people who are most violent in the whitehall protests and violence last week. and it's going to be more than 20 people. about 70% of them have criminal backgrounds. we have got criminal damage, violence, weapons offences, football banning orders. these are criminal thugs. any suggestion they are patriots or they have a cause they're protesting about, is nonsense. back in bristol, and while there was a heavy police presence all evening, by 10pm there had only been one arrest. so this is castle park in bristol, and it's here on saturday that there were running battles between the far right and anti—fascist protesters. and there had been real fears that those scenes could be replicated tonight. but as you can see, nothing has materialised, and it seems across the country that picture has been repeated. and both government, and the protesters on the street tonight, will be hoping that this could be a turning point in this disorder. joe inwood, bbc news in bristol.

our reporterjessica lane joins us now from sheffield. good morning, jessica. as in many places around england, there was a far—right protest anticipated in that city yesterday. what ended up happening? that's right. they were actually two far—right protests that were being planned for the city. one in sheffield city centre yesterday afternoon, and another that was suggested was going to take place outside a business which offers advice on immigration applications and visas. in the end neither of those happened. instead what did happen was that outside that business around 1500 antiracism protesters gathered. it's quite a narrow road. there were a lot of people there. that stayed peaceful. and police who work here at the sheffield police headquarters will

no doubt be hoping that lack of violence was partly down to the increased police presence on the streets yesterday of sheffield. they also had extra power is here to stop and search people. power is to move people and if they were gathering. and also powers to tell people to remove any face coverings. another thing that's likely to have an impact on the fact that there really wasn't much violent disorder anywhere, is that we have seen people appearing in court already this week after that disorder that we saw at the weekend. there was disorder in sheffield, also in rotherham, which is not far away. we have more people due in court in the coming days, including two teenagers during a youth court. thank you very much for that. jessica lane. our political correspondent hannah millerjoins us now from westminster. good morning, hannah. a clear picture now is emerging of what did happen last night. have we had much political reaction? i understand we have heard from the

met chief officer this morning? yes, they met chief —— met police commissioner mark rowley has hailed it as a very successful night last night. he said that was thanks both to police and to communities themselves. he said that a couple of locations did have what he called local criminals turn out and try to create a bit of anti—social behaviour. they were arrested. a few people. but overall he was pleased and the face of what he called extreme right disorder were abated. i think there is a sense in downing street this morning as well of some relief, but not ofjob done. it is perhaps too soon to say exactly why the scenes that played out last night were not the worst ones that had been feared. it's been their strategy all along that those tough sentences and justice being seen to be done, they felt, would make a

difference. there will be more sentencing and more people appearing in court today. some of those court appearances will be televised as well, which is not the government's decision necessarily, but they are pleased to be seen that kind of thing happened. ithink pleased to be seen that kind of thing happened. i think we will see them today trying to reassure communities, trying to make sure that this doesn't happen, and that we have seen the end of it, but they will not come out at this point and say, well, it is all over, because several days need to pass before that can happen. thank you very much. naga, you're going to pick up on more of this story in northern ireland? absolutely. in northern ireland, the stormont executive will meet today to condemn the riots seen in belfast this week. police came under attack in the east of the city again last night, where objects were thrown and fires were lit. our ireland correspondent chris page has more. we have had enough!

it's been a week of tension, disorder and fear in belfast. the first signs of trouble happened after this anti—immigration demonstration and counter—protest on saturday. businesses owned by people from a migrant background were attacked in the south of the city. since then, there have been more hate crimes in other areas, such as assaults and attacks on property. this morning, it's understood northern ireland's chief constable will brief ministers in the power sharing devolved government. and then, there'll be a special sitting of the northern ireland assembly here at stormont. members are being recalled from their summer break to discuss a motion condemning the violence. the joint leader of the stormont coalition says there's no excuse for the trouble. we acknowledge that there are concerns. i have no doubt that many of those concerns are very genuinely held, and that is about access to our public services, access to affordable housing in particular. but those are issues that we need to address through government, through democratic means.

it is absolutely, nothing is achieved in terms of violence, particularly that racist targeting towards those people who have set up businesses. health workers from overseas are also feeling vulnerable. they make up a significant proportion of nhs staff. it makes you feel worried and fearful of even going about your daily lives. i mean, if you can't go out to do stuff, what's the point of coming to work and earning money? and if our children can't go to work safely, what's the point of coming and working here? and that's a bit worrying. i've been here a long time, more than 25 years in northern ireland, and this is the first time i've noticed in this level of violence against people. people from migrant communities were offered support at this rally in londonderry last night. the vast majority in northern ireland hope the political response to the turmoil will help to stop more disturbances. chris page, bbc news. three upcoming taylor swift concerts in vienna have been cancelled

because of a possible security threat. the shows were part of the singer's eras tour and had been due to start tonight. two people have been arrested on suspicion of planning islamist attacks on large events in the area. bethany bell reports from vienna. # are you ready for it?# taylor swift was supposed to hold the first of three concerts in vienna tonight, as part of the eras tour. but the shows have all been cancelled after two people were arrested on suspicion of planning an attack. yesterday, austrian police arrested a 19—year—old austrian man who lived in the town of ternitz, south of vienna. they found chemical substances at his home. nearby houses had to be evacuated while the search was going on. another person was later

arrested in vienna. police say they were planning an islamist attack. translation: according to the current state i of the investigation, the suspects radicalised themselves on the internet. the 19—year—old citizen swore allegiance to the current leader of is at the beginning ofjuly. subsequently, the suspects carried out concrete preparatory acts for a terrorist attack. police say the suspects had planned to target large events in vienna, including the taylor swift concerts. investigations are continuing. the organiser, barracuda music, said it had no choice but to cancel the shows for everyone's safety. it said all tickets would be

automatically refunded. 65,000 people were supposed to attend each one of these concerts. the organisers say, of course safety has to come first, but there are a lot of disappointed fans in vienna right now. bethany bell, bbc news vienna. the general medical council is warning that health services in the uk are in a critical state and those who work in them are at breaking point. in an annual review by the regulator, based on a survey of more than 4,000 doctors, it said that many staff were cutting their hours and turning down extra work. it called the findings very concerning. ajewish security charity has said that reports of anti—semitic incidents in the uk rose to a record in the first half of this year. the community security trust, which aims to protectjewish people, says there were almost 2,000 incidents from january to june — double the number recorded during the same period in 2023.

two months after blasting off on a test mission to the international space station, two american astronauts are still unable to return home after problems with a boeing starliner spacecraft means they can't be brought back to earth. barry wilmore and sunita williams may now end up spending more than eight months — rather than eight days — on board the iss. peter bowes reports. three, two, one, ignition. and lift—off of- starliner and atlas 5. it was expected to be a short stay at the international space station for butch wilmore and sunita williams. but the test pilots for boeing's new starliner are in for a longer trip than they bargained for. eight days could turn into eight months, because their capsule has been deemed unsafe to return to earth. problems with its propulsion system emerged during starliner�*s

initial approach to the space station injune, and it still hasn't been fixed. no decision has been made yet, but it looks like the capsule will eventually return to earth, but, to be on the safe side, without the astronauts. they may have to hitch a lift with rival company spacex. the capsule crew dragon is due to head to the space station later this year, and talks are under way with nasa to leave two empty seats so the stranded astronauts can get home on the return trip. they've already been stuck in space for two months, but the pair could be in for quite a wait, since the crew dragon won't be heading back to earth until next february. peter bowes, bbc news, los angeles. there was heartbreak for team gb's matthew hudson—smith after he missed out on olympic 400 metre gold byjust four—hundredths of a second. success on the track and in the velodrome mean team gb has passed the milestone of winning more than 1,000 olympic medals

in all the summer and winter games. our sports correspondent, joe lynskey, has more. he looked set for gold until the last few strides. the line wouldn't come. it needed to come quicker for matt hudson—smith. for matt hudson—smith this silver took courage. but it felt cruel. just to get here he had been through near misses and tough moments. he had almost quit athletics to become an electrician. but hudson—smith hit full power in the 400 metre final, a race no british man had won since paris 1924. hudson—smith is still in the front. can he get there? it is hall's gold. quincy hall, the american, found something extraordinary, from fourth to the front in a surge for the line. hudson—smith had run the fifth fastest time in history. consolation came from those he hadn't thought he'd see.

yeah, i saw my family. i didn't even know they were here. it was a bit of a shock, really. honestly, sometimes the journey is better than the outcome, and it's been a hell of a journey and i'm just grateful. came away with an olympic silver. how many people in the world can say that? and he got me on the line, but it happens, you know, i don't mind. for four brutal track kilometres britain and australia went wheel to wheel. the men's team pursuit gold medal race, the gap at the last lap less than two tenths of a second. oh, it's going to go down to the wire. but the brits will never know if they might have hauled them in. ethan hayter, exhausted, slipped off the saddle. the long ride for gold had gone off course at the end. really, i gave too much and my whole body went weak and i couldn't hold myself on the bike any more. i don't know how i stayed up, but, yeah, sorry to these guys. but i think we gave everything and we can be proud of that silver medal. in the women's team pursuit gb took the bronze, coming back to beat italy by more than two seconds.

a short amount of time to find the long road to the olympics. andy mcdonald was here at his first games, at 51 years old. everybody is cheering and clapping for andy mcdonald. mcdonald is a us skateboarding icon, but his dad was born in luton. he is the first man to compete for team gb in this sport. and most of his competitors were younger than his first child. mcdonald didn't reach the final and his olympics end here. but at the games the great moments are not all about the medals. it's the olympics! joe lynskey, bbc news. 20 minutes past seven. i like it when it is accurate. so does carol. always accurate. do you know what your view reminds me of? i've been so absorbed with the paris olympics, seeing so much of the iconic

landmarks, it reminds me of 2012 and how london was shown off beautifully. wasn't it just? it beautifully. wasn't itjust? it is a beautiful picture we have of london behind me. if you arejust picture we have of london behind me. if you are just stepping out, it is not a cold start. but for some it is quite humid. exeter at the moment is 17 degrees. aberporth in wales, 15 degrees, aberdeen, 13 degrees. in the west we have a lot of low cloud mist, mark mike, damp conditions. some eastern area starting with sunshine. the cloud will develop through the day. cloud across northern ireland, england my southern and central scotland. the wind will pick up across england and wales. temperatures today ranging from 15 in the north to about 23 in the south. heading through the evening and overnight the rain continues to push northwards and eastwards. if we follow it around you can see the tail end of it in the south. here it will be cloudy with some spots of rain. and again,

some clear skies. some showers, most prolific in the north—west. it is also to be a breezy night and a humid one. temperatures 11 to possibly 18 or 19 degrees in south—eastern corner. we start with the dregs of a weather front in the south tomorrow. with cloud and some spots of rain. it clears. some showers follow. then it will be a day of sunny spells, bright spells and scattered showers. most of which will be across the north—west of scotland. a few getting into northern ireland. tomorrow it will be windy in the north, especially so with exposure. these are the temperatures tomorrow. 15 to 25. i want to quickly show you the outlook. this starts on sunday. you can see how temperatures rise across england and wales. it will be quite hard on sunday and monday in the south—eastern corner. for scotland and northern ireland it is business as usual for you, with temperatures closer to where we expect them to be at this stage in august.

thank you very much. 153,000 people in the uk are living with parkinson's, a neurological condition which can cause more than 40 different symptoms, including involuntary tremors and pain. 52—year—old damien gath says his parkinson's symptoms made everyday tasks, like making a cup of tea, a real struggle. he says his life has been transformed by a new drug called produodopa, which is delivered through a portable pump. the improvement in damien's symptoms has been captured in this nhs video. this is the often tricky bit, getting just the right amount of milk in your cup of tea. it transforms everyday things that perhaps we all take for granted. we are nowjoined by marc van grieken, who took part in the trial for the drug, and also by dr rowan wathes from parkinson's uk. good morning to you both. thank you

forjoining us. let's start with you, doctor or. how does this work? it is a pump, it delivers every hour. where... how easy is it to get hold of? ., ., ., , ., , ., hold of? you wear it on your belt, a bit like a medium-sized _ hold of? you wear it on your belt, a bit like a medium-sized bum i hold of? you wear it on your belt, a bit like a medium-sized bum bag, i hold of? you wear it on your belt, a i bit like a medium-sized bum bag, and bit like a medium—sized bum bag, and it delivers through a syringe the drug continuously over 24—hour is. so, day and night you receive the drug. it's designed for people whose symptoms, whose motor symptoms are not being well controlled by oral tablets any more. so those with slightly more advanced parkinson's who are not getting the benefit from oral tablets. and for those people it can be absolutely life changing. they might be taking more than 20 tablets a day. moving to this pump can be much more convenient and also result in much better control of their symptoms day and night. i am

we as a charity are investing millions. we have invested 100 millions. we have invested 100 million into research trying to find those new treatments. and hopefully, a cure. and whilst this should give people hope, this is the first new treatment that has come, become available on the nhs for a number of years, so we are making progress. it should give people hope it is not —— but it is not going to be the answer for everyone. there is never the more work to be done.- for everyone. there is never the more work to be done. thank you very much. more work to be done. thank you very much- mark. — more work to be done. thank you very much. mark, thank _ more work to be done. thank you very much. mark, thank you _ more work to be done. thank you very much. mark, thank you very _ more work to be done. thank you very much. mark, thank you very much - more work to be done. thank you very much. mark, thank you very much for| much. mark, thank you very much for telling us how much of a positive impact this drug has had on you. i wish you well. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london. i'm alison earle. thousands of anti—racism campaigners

took to the streets last night in a show of unity against the violent disorder seen over the past week. peaceful rallies were held in walthamstow and also in finchley. the met police said more than a thousand officers were ready to respond to any unrest. but in the end protests by far—right groups didn't happen. anyone who thinks that hating people is going to make their lives better, it's not. it's just a purely destructive behaviour and needs to stop. i'm really happy that the community came out in solidarity and basically scared them away, technically. so they knew that they can't do that rubbish here. new figures have revealed transport for london spent nearly £22 million cracking down on fare dodging over the last year, but only collected just over £1 million back in penalty charges. tfl said its identified a14 people who often avoid paying for all or part of theirjourneys. it's using enforcement teams and cctv to help find offenders, but said the harm caused is "much greater than the missed cost of a ticket" as culprits

are often abusive to staff. a special set of stamps is being issued to celebrate the tower of london. royal mail has joined forces with historic royal palaces to create 10 different images. they aim to show the role the famous landmark has played throughout history — from fortress, to the home of the crown jewels. another day, and another work has appeared by street artist banksy. sticking with the animal theme — this time it's monkeys in brick lane. it's the third mural banksy has claimed credit for this week after two elephants on a wall in chelsea on tuesday and a goat near kew bridge on monday. travel now, and let's see how the tube is faring. there's no service on the bakerloo line between queens park and harrow & wealdstone and a similar issue on the overground between euston and watford junction. there's also no service on the elizabeth line between hayes & harlington and heathrow. now onto the weather with kate. good morning. a bright start, at least for some of us this morning. a few sunny spells, but then

the cloud will increase and we'll see some outbreaks of rain as we head further through the day. so short—lived sunshine this morning. clouds increasing from the west. some light patchy rain, some drizzle. one or two bursts could be a bit heavier. breezy through the afternoon and temperatures on the cool side around 22 celsius the maximum. then overnight tonight we're going to hang on to the cloud, but it is going to be a warm and humid night. temperatures perhaps in central london not dropping much below 18 or even 19 celsius. so quite uncomfortable for sleeping. any remnants of that cloud tomorrow morning will drift away eastwards, bringing some sunshine through friday and temperatures tomorrow getting that little bit warmer, looking at a maximum of around 25 or even 26 celsius. as we head into the weekend, it is looking largely dry and fine and the temperatures getting warmer by the end of the weekend. high 20s into the first part of next week. we're looking at temperatures in the low 30s. there's lots more on our website and social media including the new sculpture outside britain's busiest railway station.

that's it, i'm back in around half an hour. hello, this is breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. thousands of police officers were on standby in preparation for potential unrest last night, but the overwhelming majority of events passed peacefully, with thousands of anti—racism demonstrators turning out at locations across england. businesses boarded up windows and closed early after fears around 100 far—right events would be taking place. but the counter demonstrations in locations where far—right protests had been expected — including north london, bristol and newcastle — were largely peaceful. it comes as the crown prosecution service says around 140 people have been charged so far in relation to the riots and violent

disorder in recent days. three men were jailed yesterday. 58—year—old derek drummond, was given a three—year sentence for punching a police officer during violence in southport. 29—year—old declan geiran, was jailed for two—and—a—half—years for violent disorder and setting fire to a police vehicle, while 41—year—old liam james riley, was jailed for 20—months for violent disorder and racially aggravated abusive behaviour. in the last half an hour, the metropolitan police commissioner sir mark rowley has said thousands of officers have been deployed across england, and called it a "very successful night" after fears of far—right disorder were "abated". we put thousands of officers on the street. and i think the show of force from the police and frankly, the show of unity from communities together defeated the challenges that we've seen. and it went off very peacefully last night. a couple of locations where some

local criminals turn out and try and create a bit of antisocial behaviour, and we arrested a few of them, but it was a very successful night and the fears of sort of extreme right disorder and were abated. we'rejoined now by policing minister, dame diana johnson. thank you for your time. how do you summarise events as they unfolded last night? flan summarise events as they unfolded last niuht? ., summarise events as they unfolded last niuht? . , ., . last night? can i first of all exress last night? can i first of all express my _ last night? can i first of all express my gratitude - last night? can i first of all express my gratitude to i last night? can i first of all| express my gratitude to all last night? can i first of all- express my gratitude to all the police officers who were on duty last night and in previous days they face levels of violence and thuggery and hooliganism which has been absolutely unacceptable and have done so with bravery and courage and i think we need to mark about. i also want to pay tribute to the policing leaders like sir mark, for the work they have done to ensure communities were safe last night and i'm cautiously welcoming what happened last night. there are the days ahead that we need to get through as well but that level of

criminality and disorder we have seen over previous days, that did not happen last night and that is to be very welcomed. can not happen last night and that is to be very welcomed.— be very welcomed. can i ask you about the _ be very welcomed. can i ask you about the people _ be very welcomed. can i ask you about the people who _ be very welcomed. can i ask you about the people who turned - be very welcomed. can i ask you about the people who turned up| be very welcomed. can i ask you i about the people who turned up for the counterprotest, as they are being dubbed, as police advised people not come out but they did. do you also praise those people for what they did? i you also praise those people for what they did?— you also praise those people for what they did? i think this country has a traditional _ what they did? i think this country has a traditional peaceful - what they did? i think this country has a traditional peaceful protest l has a traditional peaceful protest and i think last night was an example of that and clearly because of what had happened in previous days we were very anxious that we did not add to the burden on the police by having to police counter demonstrations and protests but luckily last night everything on the whole was peaceful so that's important, but what last night showed us is that the vast majority of people in this country are law—abiding, tolerant, respect the police and want their communities to be safe for all communities, and i

think that was demonstrated last night by some of what we saw on the streets with those people who came forward to make their views clear. because, unfortunately, the last few nights, what we'd seen was the very small criminal element, the extremists were out on the streets engaging in disorder and violence, and that is not what britain is. it's not what the british people are about. in it's not what the british people are about. , ., ., , about. in the run-up to last night olice about. in the run-up to last night police included _ about. in the run-up to last night police included did _ about. in the run-up to last night police included did offer- about. in the run-up to last night police included did offer up - police included did offer up information they had about what they were worried about and the scale of the protest involved. as we speak this morning, what can you share with us about either your concerns or knowledge about what might lie ahead in the next few days? clearly there is intelligence _ ahead in the next few days? clearly there is intelligence about - ahead in the next few days? clearly there is intelligence about protests| there is intelligence about protests and processions in the next few days leading into the weekend but what

i'm really clear about is the police response, the mobilisation we have seen to get the police officers on streets to be available if disorder occurs is really important and has had a good effect, and also i have to say the response of the police in terms of arresting arresting those involved in criminal acts in the last week, bringing them into police stations, getting them charged, getting them in front of a court, and as you said earlier in your package, people are going to prison for the acts they carried out on our streets in the last few days. we saw one case yesterday of a man who punched a police officer going to prison for three years, so i think that swift justice is prison for three years, so i think that swiftjustice is important. over 400 people have been arrested and i know the number will increase today and we over hundred and a0

people charged in that number will go people charged in that number will 9° up people charged in that number will go up as well and we will start to see again today more people going into court receiving sentences and very importantly and it's notjust those physical acts on the street that will make sure people are brought to account, but it's also what is happening online and that's really important. this week we saw the first person being charged and convicted of what he had done online, inciting violence, racial violence and that is important. if you do stuff online, we will come for you just as much as we will come for you just as much as we will come for you just as much as we will come for you for what you do on the streets of the country if you are carrying out criminal disorder and violence. ., . violence. you referenced intelligence _ violence. you referenced intelligence and - violence. you referenced intelligence and concern | violence. you referenced - intelligence and concern about plans intelligence and concern about plans in protest over the weekend. can you talk to me more about that? that in protest over the weekend. can you talk to me more about that?- talk to me more about that? that is a matter for—

need to do to remove illegal criminal content from their platforms, and i hope they will take heed of what ofcom said yesterday when they wrote an open letter telling them to get on and put in place all the measures they need to clean up the social media platforms. you talked about the number of arrests which has made —— remain static, around the a00 mark in the last few days, and you are expected to rise. have you got from police any notion how many people in all work involved in the violence against the police, those incidents in terms of the overall number. i know we have the number of arrests but it would be useful... do they have an indication of how many people were involved? i have an indication of how many people were involved?- have an indication of how many people were involved? i think that number is obviously _ people were involved? i think that number is obviously being - people were involved? i think that number is obviously being worked| people were involved? i think that i number is obviously being worked on and i should say the number of arrests are expected to rise as the police do their work and looking at cctv footage and looking at social

media posts. i know in humberside they have been doing a tremendous job of asking the public for help to identify perpetrators. we had looting in some of the shops in hull and there are clear images of people taking things and stealing from shops and all of those people will be held to account for their criminal acts. that work is ongoing and i know the police are putting in and i know the police are putting in a lot of resource to do that and i know that prosecutors are there to help advise the police to make sure that the right charges are brought these individuals.— these individuals. dame diana johnson, thank _ these individuals. dame diana johnson, thank you _ these individuals. dame diana johnson, thank you for - these individuals. dame diana johnson, thank you for your i these individuals. dame diana i johnson, thank you for your time this morning. we need to catch up on what is going on in the olympics. every day it feels like you are coming down from a crazy roller—coaster ride. it coming down from a crazy roller-coaster ride.- coming down from a crazy roller-coaster ride. it all starts a . ain roller-coaster ride. it all starts again and _ roller-coaster ride. it all starts again and some _ roller-coaster ride. it all starts again and some big _ roller-coaster ride. it all starts again and some big names i roller-coaster ride. it all starts again and some big names in l roller-coaster ride. it all starts i again and some big names in action for team _ again and some big names in action for team gb— again and some big names in action

for team gb today. after the drama on the track last night, the first action of the day is already underway, and they're making a splash in the river in paris, and with the women's marathon swim ongoing in front of packed stands. many of us might struggle to run 10 kilometres, or 6 miles let alone swim it. amongst the crowds in the sunshine, is our sports reporter katie gornall. it is gruelling, lung busting and how is it going in the water, especially for team gb's leah crisp? it is a brutal swim in paris. welcome to the bridge where the marathon starts and finishes and leah crisp for team gb is down in the main pack, towards the back of the main pack, towards the back of the pack. she is 22 years old and only started open water swimming around 18 months ago when she made the shift to do it competitively and now she is making her olympic debut, and it is a plot —— tough place to

swim and they're finding it tough today. we expect them back in around a5 minutes but it might take you longer today and there were some concerns of it getting under way at all because of water quality but they were satisfied but we will see when the winner comes back in about a5 minutes or it could be longer. looking further ahead, after nine o'clock, spare a thought for katarina johnson—thompson, twice world champion and just everything crossed that this could be her year to get an olympic medal.— to get an olympic medal. that's riuht. to get an olympic medal. that's right- she's _ to get an olympic medal. that's right. she's had _ to get an olympic medal. that's right. she's had such _ to get an olympic medal. that's right. she's had such bad i to get an olympic medal. that's right. she's had such bad luck. to get an olympic medal. that's i right. she's had such bad luck with injuries over the years, katarina johnson—thompson, a phenomenal athlete, but remember she had to pull out of tokyo, so i think a lot of people are thinking it could be

that will bring in some heavy rain as we go through the course of the day and we will hang on to a lot of low cloud, mist and merck in western areas and where we have sunshine the cloud will continue to build and then in comes the rain, heaviest in northern ireland, northern england, central and southern scotland and eventually it will get into northern scotland. it's also going to be quite windy across england and wales. temperatures between 15 and 23 degrees. this evening and overnight the rain continues to advance northwards and eastwards and if we follow round there is another weather front dangling across southern areas introducing thicker cloud and spots of rain but there will be clear skies tonight and a few showers, most of which will be in the north west. it's going to be breezy and humid. these are the overnight lows between 11 and 19 degrees as we push to the south—east. the weather front will be with us first thing tomorrow in the south—east and eventually clears away and you can see from the array of isobars it will be another windy

day particularly in the northern half of the country and particularly with the exposure, so we say goodbye to the weather front and will see a few showers behind and then it brightens up and tomorrow is basically a day of sunshine and scattered showers. again, most of those will be in the north west, where as i mentioned, the wind will be strongest. temperatures range from 15 in the north to 25, possibly 26 in the south—east. carrying on through the week and weekend we have this next system coming in across southern areas and that's likely to bring in cloud, patchy light rain during the course of saturday morning across parts of england and wales. it continues to push to the south—east through the day and we will see showers across the north of the country where it will still be windy. it will also feel quite humid during the course of saturday and these are the temperatures, looking at 15 in the north and 25 as we push

to the south and then a quick look at what happens. it's going to turn hotter across parts of the south—east and england and wales on monday and tuesday will be warm or very warm in the south—east and it's fairly short lived before scotland and northern ireland temperatures will be closer to average and remove you are wondering what averages, it's 16 in northern scotland up to 23 in south—east england. i am 23 in south-east england. i am likin: it, 23 in south-east england. i am liking it. and — 23 in south-east england. i am liking it. and i— 23 in south-east england. i am liking it, and i like _ 23 in south-east england. i am liking it, and i like the - 23 in south-east england. i am liking it, and i like the gold i liking it, and i like the gold medals you have put on therefore next week. i am looking at those edinburgh temperatures. 0ur arts correspondent david sillito is there for us this morning and can take us through some of what's in store. looks like you've got 29 degrees for the edinburgh festival, that is all right. the edinburgh festival, that is all riuht. �* ., ., ., ., right. and no rain today, would you believe it. right. and no rain today, would you believe it- it _ right. and no rain today, would you believe it. it is _ right. and no rain today, would you believe it. it is fantastic, _ right. and no rain today, would you believe it. it is fantastic, the i believe it. it is fantastic, the perfect — believe it. it is fantastic, the perfect edinburgh fringe, 3317 shows and you _ perfect edinburgh fringe, 3317 shows and you can see from the flyers, one has caught—

new figures have revealed transport for london spent nearly £22 million cracking down on fare dodging over the last year, but only collected just over a million back in penalty charges. tfl said its identified a1a people who often avoid paying for all or part of theirjourneys. it's using enforcement teams and cctv to help find offenders, but said the harm caused is "much greater than the missed cost of a ticket" as culprits are often abusive to staff. a special set of stamps is being issued to celebrate the tower of london. royal mail has joined forces with historic royal palaces to create ten different images. they aim to show the role the famous landmark has played throughout history, from fortress, to the home of the crown jewels. another day and another work has appeared by street artist banksy. sticking with the animal theme, this time it's monkeys in brick lane. it's the third mural banksy has claimed credit for this week after two elephants on a wall in chelsea on tuesday and a goat near kew bridge on monday.

travel now, and lets see how the tube is faring. now onto the weather with kate. good morning. a bright start, at least for some of us this morning. a few sunny spells, but then the cloud will increase and we'll see some outbreaks of rain as we head further through the day. so short—lived sunshine this morning. clouds increasing from the west. some light patchy rain, some drizzle. one or two bursts could be a bit heavier. breezy through the afternoon and temperatures on the cool side around 22 celsius the maximum. then overnight tonight we're going to hang on to the cloud, but it is going to be a warm and humid night. temperatures perhaps in central london not dropping much below 18 or even 19 celsius. so quite uncomfortable for sleeping. any remnants of that cloud tomorrow

morning will drift away eastwards, bringing some sunshine through friday and temperatures tomorrow getting that little bit warmer, looking at a maximum of around 25 or even 26 celsius. as we head into the weekend, it is looking largely dry and fine and the temperatures getting warmer by the end of the weekend. high 20s into the first part of next week. we're looking at temperatures in the low 30s. there's lots more on our website and social media including the new sculpture outside britain's busiest railway station. that's it for now. enjoy the rest of your morning. welcome back. we are on bbc two until nine o'clock this morning. still to come, we are going to be joined by the north—east mayor, who says racism and prejudice will not be tolerated. this after

as excitement builds for the limbic bouldering finals, we are a climbing centre in sacoor —— stockport. we will find out more about the sport. i was adjudged? what about having a go yourself? that is the legacy of the olympics. today, world heptathlon champion katarina johnson thompson begins her quest for gold in paris. we are going to be talking to 2012 olympic champion damejessica ennis—hill to champion dame jessica ennis—hill to talk champion damejessica ennis—hill to talk about her chances, and of course reflect on the performance of team gb pass athletes suffer. this is when we say goodbye to our viewers bbc one.

protesters have rallied in cities and towns across england after a week of rioting and disorder. gatherings were seen in newcastle, birmingham, liverpool, brighton, sheffield and london. police had been prepared forfurther violence by far—right rioters after events in the past week. apart from some isolated incidents, the marches have been largely peaceful, with demonstrators chanting, "refugees are welcome here". joe inwood has this report from bristol. the city had been braced for trouble. so this part of bristol is where a couple of immigration lawyers are based, whose addresses have been leaked online. and there was a real fear there could be a far right protest taking place here today. but we've been here the last couple of hours, and there's not a sign of that. instead, something very different has happened. smash the fash! thousands of anti—racism protesters, trade unionists, members of the local black and asian community, students, took over the streets in what was broadly a good natured evening, but one that sent a message. i feel ashamed for our country right now. it'sjust, we're not representing ourselves in any sense of a manner that's, like, admirable at all.

you can see a lot of places are boarded up, so there's been a lot of fear about what could happen. and itjust felt really important that we were here to, yeah, to protect our community. it was a picture repeated across the country. walthamstow in london saw vast crowds gathered, as in bristol, to oppose the far right. while there were colourful scenes in west london. refugees are welcome here! in sheffield, police had prepared for trouble, but none came. in croydon, although there were a few arrests, things were generally peaceful. while a march between two mosques in accrington was greeted by people drinking at the pub. and this was the scene in newcastle. of course, protect our mosques because we believe this is our house

there were some isolated incidents. aldershot was seemingly one of the few places the right wing protests materialised. in brighton, they were so outnumbered they needed police protection. nazi scum, off our streets! these are criminals, they are thugs. they are not patriots. we have been doing some dawn raids this morning, the people who were most violent in the whitehall protests and violence last week. and it's going to be more than 20 people. about 70% of them have criminal backgrounds. we have got criminal damage, violence, weapons offences,

football banning orders. while there was a heavy police presence all evening. this is castle park in bristol and there were running battles here between far right and antifascist pretences and there were worries the scenes could be replicated tonight. and there had been real fears that those scenes could be replicated tonight. but as you can see, nothing has materialised, and it seems across the country that picture has been repeated. and both government, and the protesters on the street tonight, will be hoping that this could be a turning point in this disorder. joe inwood, bbc news in bristol. jessica lanejoins us now from sheffield. good morning. jessica, a far—right protest was anticipated in the city last night but it didn't materialise? yeah, that is right. there were two that were suggested would take place in sheffield, one of the city centre

at about 1pm, and another that was meant to be taking place outside the offices of a company that offers advice on immigration applications and visas but in the end neither happened and in fact what did happen, as we've seen in other places, around 1500 antiracism protesters did gather outside the office and it's quite a narrow street down there and it was full of people but very peaceful. and outside the south yorkshire police headquarters today, i've seen lots of people coming in for their shift and they are smiling and no wonder as they will be pleased with how things turned out. they had lots of extra officers on the street and we saw lots of police vans gathered in the city centre and they were obviously ready to be sent out if anything did happen. they also had extra powers in south yorkshire and police could stop and search people and they could also move people on if they were gathering in an area of the city centre and they could tell people to remove anything covering their faces as well, so all of those

measures would have gone into keeping things calm yesterday and we also have seen people starting to go to court because of that violent disorder we saw at the weekend. both here in sheffield and in rotherham which is just here in sheffield and in rotherham which isjust a here in sheffield and in rotherham which is just a few miles away and there are more people expected to be in court in the coming days, including two teenagers who will be including two teenagers who will be in a youth court.— 0ur political correspondent hannah millerjoins us now from westminster. good morning. so the picture is becoming clear about what happened last night. we are hearing this morning from police chiefs and the government? yes. are hearing this morning from police chiefs and the government? yes, and the policin: chiefs and the government? yes, and the policing minister, _ chiefs and the government? yes, and the policing minister, diana _ the policing minister, diana johnson, cautiously welcoming the scenes last night. suggesting they were in the tradition of peaceful protest. the government not seeing this as job done but they are obviously happy with how things went last night than perhaps they had

hoped. it has been their priority all along, thatjustice being seen to be done would make people think twice about going out onto the streets, the far right and thugs, as they have been calling them. diana johnson suggested to breakfast this morning that there could be more arrests to come. the number of arrests, i'm expecting to rise. _ the number of arrests, i'm expecting to rise. as— the number of arrests, i'm expecting to rise. as the — the number of arrests, i'm expecting to rise, as the police do their work. — to rise, as the police do their work, looking at cctv footage, looking — work, looking at cctv footage, looking at _ work, looking at cctv footage, looking at social media posts. i know _ looking at social media posts. i know in — looking at social media posts. i know in humberside they have been doing _ know in humberside they have been doing a _ know in humberside they have been doing a tremendousjob of know in humberside they have been doing a tremendous job of actually asking _ doing a tremendous job of actually asking the public for help to identify— asking the public for help to identify perpetrators. we had looting — identify perpetrators. we had looting in some of the shops in hult _ looting in some of the shops in hull. there are very clear images of people _ hull. there are very clear images of people taking things, stealing from shops _ people taking things, stealing from shops. and all those people will be held to _ shops. and all those people will be held to account for their criminal acts _ acts. she also acts. — she also suggested they are acts.

she also su- -ested they are lookin- she also suggested they are looking at intelligence about what may or may not happen over the weekend. there are more people appearing in court today. some of those hearings will be televised. they are pleased in government that some of the newspapers are prominently featuring long shots of people who were allegedly caught up in the violence. that said, it is perhaps too soon to say whether or not this is over. there will be questions about why all of this emerge that this time, and what more the government can do to stop scenes like this happening again. thank you very much for the moment. nine minutes past eight. naga, you are going to look at how the situation was in northern ireland overnight stop because largely we have been talking about what has been happening in england. in northern ireland, the stormont executive will meet today to condemn the riots seen in belfast this week. police came under attack in the east of the city again last night, where objects were thrown and fires were lit. chris page has more. we have had enough!

it's been a week of tension, disorder and fear in belfast. the first signs of trouble happened after this anti—immigration demonstration and counter—protest on saturday. businesses owned by people from a migrant background were attacked in the south of the city. since then, there have been more hate crimes in other areas, such as assaults and attacks on property. this morning, it's understood northern ireland's chief constable will brief ministers in the power sharing devolved government. and then, there'll be a special sitting of the northern ireland assembly here at stormont. members are being recalled from their summer break to discuss a motion condemning the violence. the joint leader of the stormont coalition says there's no excuse for the trouble. we acknowledge that there are concerns. i have no doubt that many of those concerns are very genuinely held, and that is about access to our public services, access to affordable housing in particular. but those are issues that we need

to address through government, through democratic means. it is absolutely, nothing is achieved in terms of violence, particularly that racist targeting towards those people who have set up businesses. health workers from overseas are also feeling vulnerable. they make up a significant proportion of nhs staff. it makes you feel worried and fearful of even going about your daily lives. i mean, if you can't go out to do stuff, what's the point of coming to work and earning money? and if our children can't go to work safely, what's the point of coming and working here? and that's a bit worrying. i've been here a long time, more than 25 years in northern ireland, and this is the first time i've noticed in this level of violence against people. people from migrant communities were offered support at this rally in londonderry last night. the vast majority in northern ireland hope the political response to the turmoil will help to stop more disturbances. chris page, bbc news.

three upcoming taylor swift concerts in vienna have been cancelled because of a possible security threat. the shows were part of the singer's eras tour and had been due to start tonight. two people have been arrested on suspicion of planning terror attacks on large events in the area. bethany bell reports from vienna. # are you ready for it?# taylor swift was supposed to hold the first of three concerts in vienna tonight, as part of the eras tour. but the shows have all been cancelled after two people were arrested on suspicion of planning an attack. yesterday, austrian police arrested a 19—year—old austrian man who lived in the town of ternitz, south of vienna. they found chemical substances at his home. nearby houses had to be evacuated

while the search was going on. another person was later arrested in vienna. police say they were planning an islamist attack. translation: according to the current state i of the investigation, the suspects radicalised themselves on the internet. the 19—year—old citizen swore allegiance to the current leader of is at the beginning ofjuly. subsequently, the suspects carried out concrete preparatory acts for a terrorist attack. police say the suspects had planned to target large events in vienna, including the taylor swift concerts. investigations are continuing. the organiser, barracuda music, said it had no choice but to cancel the shows for everyone's safety.

it said all tickets would be automatically refunded. 65,000 people were supposed to attend each one of these concerts. the organisers say, of course safety has to come first, but there are a lot of disappointed fans in vienna right now. bethany bell, bbc news vienna. the general medical council is warning that health services in the uk are in a critical state and those who work in them are at breaking point. in an annual review by the regulator, based on a survey of more than a,000 doctors, it said that many staff were cutting their hours and turning down extra work. it called the findings very concerning. ajewish security charity has said that reports of anti—semitic incidents in the uk rose to a record in the first half of this year. the community security trust, which aims to protectjewish people, says there were almost 2,000 incidents from january to june — double the number recorded

during the same period in 2023. two months after blasting off on a test mission to the international space station, two american astronauts are still unable to return home after problems with a boeing starliner spacecraft means they can't be brought back to earth. barry wilmore and sunita williams may now end up spending more than eight months — rather than eight days — on board the iss. peter bowes reports. three, two, one, ignition. and lift—off of- starliner and atlas 5. it was expected to be a short stay at the international space station for butch wilmore and sunita williams. but the test pilots for boeing's new starliner are in for a longer trip than they bargained for. eight days could turn into eight months, because their capsule has been deemed unsafe

to return to earth. problems with its propulsion system emerged during starliner�*s initial approach to the space station injune, and it still hasn't been fixed. no decision has been made yet, but it looks like the capsule will eventually return to earth, but, to be on the safe side, without the astronauts. they may have to hitch a lift with rival company spacex. the capsule crew dragon is due to head to the space station later this year, and talks are under way with nasa to leave two empty seats so the stranded astronauts can get home on the return trip. they've already been stuck in space for two months, but the pair could be in for quite a wait, since the crew dragon won't be heading back to earth until next february. peter bowes, bbc news, los angeles. and my question for carol this morning is, if you had a ticket available to you now, would you go to space?

no. easy answer. ijust don't to space? no. easy answer. i just don't fancy it. i like being down here on earth, thanks, charlie. it doesn't appeal to me at all. i like looking at my satellite and my radar but that is about it. i satellite and my radar but that is about it. ., ., ., , about it. i wonder if charlie was offerin: about it. i wonder if charlie was offering you _ about it. i wonder if charlie was offering you a _ about it. i wonder if charlie was offering you a ticket _ about it. i wonder if charlie was offering you a ticket to - about it. i wonder if charlie was offering you a ticket to space? | about it. i wonder if charlie was| offering you a ticket to space? a offering you a ticket to space? one—way ticket! good morning. if you arejust heading out, the pollen levels today are low or moderate across the board. there is a lot of cloud in western areas. here it is murky, it is damp, there is hill fog. through the day, after a bright start in central and eastern areas, it will cloud over and we will see some rain. the rain will turn heavy in parts of scotland, northern england and northern ireland. you can see for the afternoon it is moving out of northern ireland. we hang on to all the murk in the west, and towards the east we see some rain pushing east through the day. it will be quite windy for england and wales. tonight, as the weather front pushes north with its heavy rain, it will be replaced by heavy

showers. in the south we will hang onto some cloud, patchy rain. wherever you are it will feel humid. the overnight lows 11 to 18 degrees. into tomorrow we start off with the cloud and patchy light rain. that moves away. some showers follow behind. then it is a day of sunshine and scattered showers. some of the showers will be heavy in the north and west. here too, it will be windy. temperatures 15 to 25. into saturday, we start off with a lot of cloud, some patchy rain across wales, central and southern england, pushing towards the south—east. to the north of that sunshine and showers, most prolific in the north—west. and we are looking at humid conditions once again in the far south east with highs of 25. but it is going to get that bit warmer as we go through the weekend. more especially across england and wales.

for scotland and northern ireland, it is business as usual with average temperatures. thank you. we will see you for a more in—depth look ahead in about half an hour. 19 minutes past eight. we have a kind of fascination, it happens every once in awhile, with rubbish experiences. it sometimes happens at christmas. the christmas grotto. there was one of those in glasgow, a willy wonka themed experience. it went viral. the event was promoted as a family day out, but customers were disappointed to find a sparsely decorated warehouse. well, now there's a musical based on it, which is being performed at this year's edinburgh fringe. david sillito has been behind the scenes to meet the team involved. edinburgh, and welcome to the fringe. my show attention seeker is a character comedy sketch show with a biscuit barrel, not another 69 sketch show. my show is called little beast.

and this is willy wonka and the doctor factory. there's also a wonka magic show and two wonka musicals. there's a lot of willy wonka here. i think it's sort of a glasgow situation. have you heard about that? glasgow. you may remember it. the gloriously disappointing wonka chocolate experience. the images went round the world. especially this one of a very sad oompa loompa which inspired an american producer, richard kraft. so what is this show you're doing? okay, so what it is, is myself and the entire universe saw an image on social media of a really sad looking oompa loompa. the sad oompa loompa, in a way, became a symbol around the world of "what the hell happened to my life?" and so since i kept asking the question, what's going on in that girl's head? i thought, there's only one way to answer what's going on in someone's head.

it's a musical. a musical, of course. what else would it be, a musical. are you mad? i'm worried for you. willy's grand opening! but he's done it. and the star of the show? yes. it's the sad oompa loompa herself, kirsty patterson. it was a disaster. it's as bad as what they say it was, how it ended. but i was the last man standing, giving out the jelly beans. and the exact time when they took the picture, to be fair, was when i was seriously contemplating my life being like, "maybe i should just go and do something else?" number one tourist attraction in glasgow! it feels like a dream come true. i mean, i don't think a lot of people can say they have a musical about them. she can't have one. who says i can't? the man with a funny hat. iwant one. and to add to it all, there's even a star appearance from the willy wonka movie from 1971, the original veruca salt.

veruca, you were terrible. thank you so much. # don't care how. # i want it now. veruca has haunted me in a good way. um, you know, i wasn't quite the sad oompa loompa meme, but i have been a meme for many, many women. # i want it now! so how many days rehearsal have you had so far? i want it now! so how many days rehearsal have you had so far? one. one? one. but back to the star of the moment, kirsty. and a little oompa loompa masterclass. could you do memem oompa loompa for me? of course. i kind of practice it many, many times. so you need your hips hip width apart, nice and sturdy on the ground. look into the bottom left hand corner and you're just going todoa.... david sillito, bbc news, edinburgh. david joins us now from edinburgh. can we see the look? have you perfected it?

standby for potential unrest, but the overwhelming majority of events passed peacefully, with thousands of counter demonstrators turning out at locations across england. businesses boarded up windows and closed early with around 100 events for you to be taking place, but gatherings in locations where anti—immigration protests have been expected including north —— newcastle and bristol, were largely peaceful. this comes as the crown prosecution service says 340 people have been prosecuted after the unrest in recent days. three men were jailed yesterday after admitting taking part in riots. 58—year—old derek drummond, was given a three—year sentence for punching a police officer during violence in southport. 29—year—old declan geiran was jailed for two—and—a—half—years for violent disorder and setting fire to a police vehicle, while 4i—year—old liam james riley, was jailed for 20 months for violent disorder and racially aggravated abusive behaviour.

we'rejoined now from bristol by our correspondent, john maguire. i think the sign we can see to your right tells a very powerful story. you are right. there was boarding along the shops of west street which is just being taken down since we've been here, they have been constantly removing them having spent yesterday putting them up, but that is right, community is key and that is what was on the show. this place was absolutely packed with people, local bristolian people saying enough is enough and we are not putting up with this any more and they turned out in huge numbers. way more numbers than we've seen from the far right in any of their demonstrations across the uk. superintendent, good morning to you, you are the bristol command and from the policing point

was over 6000 specially trained officers made available nationally and that is something that gives the public reassurance but it also shows the huge demand, the need that is required to police the threat of something of this scale and i think last night there were reports that there was potential for nearly a hundred events in and around the country and that is a massive downward pressure on the police, but thankfully, waking up this morning and seeing everything passed peacefully, ifeela and seeing everything passed peacefully, ifeel a lot more positive than when i spoke to you on monday. the positive than when i spoke to you on monda . ., , :, positive than when i spoke to you on monda . ., ,:, ., ,~' , ~ monday. the reason i ask is the met olice said monday. the reason i ask is the met police said more _ monday. the reason i ask is the met police said more police _ monday. the reason i ask is the met police said more police were - monday. the reason i ask is the met police said more police were sent i monday. the reason i ask is the met police said more police were sent to j police said more police were sent to the north of england i know you are not police and crime commissioner, but you are the mayor, so you would have asked the numbers, surely? certainly we were asking the right questions to make sure northumbria police on the durham constabulary on the forces my area had enough

support and we were really reassured by the plans there. i do think the police in the last few days have done an outstanding job and we've also seen a number of people start to go through the court system quickly and get sentenced, and that will give reassurance to the communities we are targeting because although this morning we are feeling although this morning we are feeling a lot more positive about that community response in people saying we will not accept this and it's not what we are about we also know it is our muslim minority communities that have been targeted by crime and violence and they need that reassurance and see the action so they feel confident and safe across this country. they feel confident and safe across this country-— they feel confident and safe across this count .~ ., :, ~ :, this country. what do you know then in terms of — this country. what do you know then in terms of what _ this country. what do you know then in terms of what is _ this country. what do you know then in terms of what is being _ this country. what do you know then in terms of what is being planned i this country. what do you know then in terms of what is being planned on those protesters and potential rioters that has been seen on social media previously? taste

low cloud and mist and merck in the west and some sunshine to start the day with the cloud is building as we go through the course of the morning and then the rain arrives bringing heavy rain across northern ireland, northern england and much of scotland and it will get into the far north—east of scotland later on. and it will be windy across england and wales. temperatures today ranging from 15 in the north to 23 in the south. as we head through the evening and overnight we have rain continuing to push north and east and it will clear much of england but we have another weather front in the south that will leave cloud and patchy rain but there will be showers blown in on quite a strong breeze and it will be a humid night tonight, where ever you are, temperatures between 11 and i9 temperatures between 11 and 19 degrees and it will feel sticky in the south—east. here are the remnants of the weather front clearing tomorrow morning and a few

showers left in its wake and you can see from the isobars in the north it will be windy, especially with exposure and we also have some showers scattered across parts of scotland and northern ireland and temperatures tomorrow, we are looking at a range of 15 to 25, possibly 26 and a bitumen in the south—east. as we head into the south—east. as we head into the south—east we have a new clutch of fronts in from the west and patchy like rain in england and wales and that will continue to drift southwards and eastwards so it will brighten up in the day for wales in the south—west but moved north of the south—west but moved north of the band of rain and we have sunshine and showers and windy conditions across the far north of the country. the temperatures between 15 and 25 or 26 as we push into the south—east and it will still feel humid. beyond that it

starts to get warmer across england and wales and it could be quite hot across parts of the south—east as we go through sunday but especially on monday where we are looking at 31 or possibly higher but for scotland and northern ireland temperatures will be around average for the time of year and generally we are looking at 16 in northern scotland to a high of 22 in the south—east. 16 in northern scotland to a high of 22 in the south-east.— 16 in northern scotland to a high of 22 in the south-east. en'oy the rest ofthe 22 in the south-east. en'oy the rest of the week. — 22 in the south-east. en'oy the rest of the week, carol. _ the amount of money paid to women who donate their eggs for use in fertility treatment will increase this year. it's thrown up a lot of questions about ethics, the legality and what people know about donating eggs. just to be clear — it is illegal to pay anyone directly for this. but we're talking about the compensation women get when they donate their eggs to help others start a family. good morning.

donors can make a huge difference to others who are going through fertility treatment. around 70,000 children have been born as a result of a donor — both egg and sperm — since 1991. the latest figures show more than 1,700 women signed up to be egg donors for the first time in 2022. it's a number that's been steadily rising — and the highest since records began in the 905. we spoke to charlotte who's donating her eggs for the second time. it felt quite full circle for me because _ it felt quite full circle for me because i am an ivf baby and my sister— because i am an ivf baby and my sister is — because i am an ivf baby and my sister is under my mum and dad went through— sister is under my mum and dad went through years of tests and trials and treatments and eventually it worked — and treatments and eventually it worked and it felt like a nice end to the _ worked and it felt like a nice end to the process having spent many

be seen inside her body, in her gut. the scientists just need a small sample from the stable. it's as simple as that. all we need for the tests that we're going to do are a faecal sample from the foal. in this container are all the microbes or bacteria that live in a young racehorse's gut. the researchers used a dna test to reveal all the different kinds of bacteria. they regularly took and tested faecal samples from 52 horses over the first three years of the animals' lives. the diversity of gut bacteria in foals at four weeks old, so really young, that predicts their future health and theirfuture racing performance. so the more different types of bacteria in the foal�*s gut, the healthier... correct. ..the more successful? correct, yes. what does this show us about how important the gut is forjust overall physical health? absolutely critical. there is a growing understanding that what happens in human guts, in animal guts, in horses, has a profound influence on

many aspects of health and disease. researchers are now investigating which helpful bacteria they could give to very young foals as an early boost for their future health. we're always looking to find out ways in which we can produce as healthy a horse as possible, and one that's going to perform well on the track. so anything that we can investigate further into how how we can get them to be in the best shape they can be, is a really good opportunity for us. the research shows that, like so many animals, these elite athletes of the equine world are driven by the trillions of bacteria that live inside their bodies. victoria gill, bbc news. we were talking with mike about olympic events that you are learning a bit more about and we will talk
