good morning. it's friday, 9th august. our main story. the prime minister has told a meeting of the government's emergency cobra committee to "remain on high alert", as he thanked police chiefs and others from across the criminal justice system for their response to protests. sir keir starmer said there's no doubt rapid sentencing, as well as a major police presence across the country, prevented widespread violence on wednesday night. our political correspondent harry farley has this report. two arrests and a heavy police presence in barnsley yesterday. but widespread riots expected on wednesday night never materialised. anti—racism protesters instead thronged the streets, chanting their support for refugees. government sources insist it's too early to tell whether a corner has been turned. ministers and police chiefs were tight lipped as they left a meeting of the emergency cobra committee last night. the prime minister is understood to have told them to remain on high alert.

he said there is no doubt rapid and public sentencing, as well as police stationed across the country, acted as a deterrent to prevent violence on wednesday night. well, we're going to continue with this strong policing response, making sure that there are additional police officers ready to respond, and also making sure we continue with the prosecutions, with the taking the cases rapidly to court and getting sentences. and we've seen the prison sentences that are following. the home secretary thanked police for their role. the 6,000 extra specialist officers mobilised to tackle the violence remain on standby. more sentences will take place today, including for those guilty of posting material online to stir up racial hatred. the focus, for now, is the police and the courts. but questions are already turning to the role of social media companies, and whether the laws due to regulate them are sufficient. labour's mayor of london, sadiq khan, says he thinks they're

not fit for purpose. harry farley, bbc news in westminster. damian grammaticas joins us now from westminster. morning, damian. another development on this story is a suspended labour councillor. his name is rickyjones. we understand he has been arrested on suspicion of encouraging murder after comments he made at a london counterprotest. there has been swift reaction. what more can you tell us?— more can you tell us? yes, good morning- — more can you tell us? yes, good morning. what _ more can you tell us? yes, good morning. what are _ more can you tell us? yes, good morning. what are the _ more can you tell us? yes, good morning. what are the police - more can you tell us? yes, good. morning. what are the police said yesterday, the metropolitan police, in a statement, they said officers had arrested a man in his 50s at an address in south—east london. the bbc understands that that is ricky jones, dartford councillorfor jones, dartford councillor for labour. jones, dartford councillorfor labour. he had been earlier

suspended by labour. and in their statement of the police said he was held on suspicion of encouraging murder and for an offence under the public order act. he was in custody. the same time they put out that statement they released some video, which showed the dartford councillor rickyjones telling a crowd in walthamstow at anti—far the demonstrators —— far—right demonstrators —— far—right demonstrators needed to have their throats cut. that issue is now with the police. but it is worth saying that at the same time we are going to see many more cases going through the courts today. more than 480 arrests. well over 100 charges. so they will be cases around the country. and also, as you were just hearing, the government saying it is

still remaining, police forces remaining on high alert, as we go into the weekend. thank you very much for taking us through that. damian grammaticas. five minutes past six. charlie, the other stories you are focusing on, amongst them is taking a look at the television personality katie price. yes. let's tell you that story. the former model, katie price, has been arrested at heathrow airport and taken into police custody, for failing to attend court. an arrest warrant was issued for the 46—year—old last week, after she failed to attend a court hearing relating to her bankruptcies. ms price will appear in court later today, as sean dilley reports. back from holiday, but katie price's feat had hardly touched the ground before she found herself in police custody. the former glamour model was arrested by metropolitan police officers at 7:45pm last night, forfailing to show up at a high court bankruptcy hearing on the 30th ofjuly. the court said she failed to show despite knowing that he had to, and being given very clear warnings

she would face arrest if she did not. the model, once known asjordan, had been due to answer questions about two bankruptcies. herfirst was in november 2019, the second in march this year. judge catherine burton said katie price had provided no real explanation for not turning up. she said, "it is in myjudgement necessary that the court issue a warrant for ms price's arrest." the judge described her cooperation as piecemeal and said specialist lawyers had hoped to quiz katie price about her finances. she is already paying 40% of her earnings from the adult entertainment site 0nly fans towards her first bankruptcy. her second relates to an unpaid tax bill of £750,000. now though, she is paying the price forfailing to show, with an uncomfortable landing, and a night in a west london police cell. sean dilley, bbc news. donald trump and kamala harris have agreed a date for their first

televised presidential debate. they'll go head—to—head on the us channel abc, on september the 10th. mr trump has said he also wants to do another two debates later in month. here's our north america correspondent, peter bowes. the first presidential debate of the year didn't go well for one of the candidates. dealing with everything we have to do with, uh... look, if we finally beat medicare... that embarrassing performance byjoe biden eventually led to him dropping out of the presidential race. he was quickly replaced by kamala harris, whose energetic campaign has rejuvenated the democratic party. now it's harris versus trump. and at a news conference at his mar a lago resort in florida, the former president attempted to belittle his new opponent, questioning her intelligence and political record.

we have somebody that hasn't received one vote for president, and she's running, and that's fine with me. but we were givenjoe biden, and now we're given somebody else. and i think, frankly, i'd rather be running against the somebody else. but that was their choice. they decided to do that, because kamala's record is horrible. she's a radical left person at a level that nobody�*s seen. it's comments like that that prompted kamala harris last week to issue this challenge to donald trump. as the saying goes, if you've got something to say... crowd chants ..say it to my face. crowd cheers now, the former president has finally agreed to a debate early next month, and he's suggesting another two in the weeks ahead. bring it on, says his opponent. well, i'm glad that he's finally agreed to a debate on september 10th. i'm looking forward to it, and,

um, hope he shows up. the debates will be crucial for both candidates ahead of polling day in november. with kamala harris�*s rapid rise in the popularity stakes... crowd: kamala! kamala! - ..mr trump will be looking to use his favourite platform, television, to reinvigorate his campaign. crowd: usa! usa! - it's going to be compulsive viewing. peter bowes, bbc news, los angeles. people who have been wrongly convicted and imprisoned, and subsequently compensated, will not be given back money which was used to pay for their prison accommodation. the decision comes after the conservative lord chancellor, alex chalk, last year said that future cases will not face deductions. the family of a retired british doctor have issued an urgent appeal after he went missing in the french pyrenees almost 48 hours ago. tom doherty, who is 67 and from st albans in hertfordshire, was travelling alone in southern france. a search is under way

involving helicopters and dogs. there has been a sharp decline in the number of foreign workers and students applying to come to the uk. provisionalfigures from the home office show visa applications were down by a third injuly, compared to last summer. the conservative government passed a law, blocking certain migrants from bringing family members to britain last year. britain's katarina johnson—thompson is in prime position for her first olympic medal, as she leads the heptathlon going into day two of the event in paris. meanwhile, ellie aldridge is team gb�*s latest gold medallist. she became the inaugural kite champion yesterday. joe lynskey has more. her best high jumper for five years, the best shot putt of her life. katarina johnson—thompson is more than halfway there to gold. she is the reigning heptathlon world

champion, but at the olympics she's never had a start like this. at three games before, her best place has been sixth. now, with three events left, the rest have to catch up. it's the heptathlon. very tired at the end of this day, so, you know what? i'll take it. what will you do know for the next 12 hours? recover and eat. try and sleep. see you bright and early. noah lyles burst through the doors to the track where his star has grown. the 100 metre champion now going for the double. but the 200 metres saw him fall back to bronze. letsile tebogo won it. lyles had to leave with assistance. not long after the race, his us team said he had covid. in marseille, a first look at the sprinters with the sail. kite boarders reach up to 40 mph, then risk it all around the bends. nolot is in the water! ellie aldridge taking the lead.

that fall came in the final and changed the race for the briton. ellie aldridge clear for gold in this sport's olympic debut. could you have believed you would be standing here with a kiting gold medal? no! it's crazy. incredible. we haven't had the easiest conditions. it's been really tricky. but yeah, it's been really cool. i hope everyone watches it on tv and thinks the same thing. emma finucane took bronze in the kirin. she called her second medal of these games surreal. a feeling perhaps too for cindy ngamba, in the ring representing the refugee olympic team, and fighting for its first medal. for the last 15 years she has lived in bolton. she trains with british boxers, but still awaits a uk passport. in blue, from panama...

she lost this semifinal by split decision, but she had done what no one has done before — to go to an olympics as a refugee athlete and leave it with a bronze. joe lynskey, bbc news. we have another day of excitement at the olympic. coming to an end. at second day of the heptathlon. very excited about that. the first giant pandas to enter the united states in 21 years were unveiled at their new enclosure at san diego zoo yesterday. the chinese government has long used so—called panda diplomacy, lending the bears to zoos in various countries as goodwill animal ambassadors. our los angeles correspondent, emma vardy, has the details. the pandas actually arrived back injune, but they've spent a bit of time acclimatising, getting used to their new surroundings. but now, they are on display to the public, and they're going to attract a lot of visitors, because people are just so fascinated by these animals. they are called yun chuan and sin bao. they're five and four years old.

and the habitat they're going to be living in at san diego zoo is called panda ridge. i'm told it's some four times larger than the last enclosure they had for the pandas, back when pandas used to be at the zoo previously. but, of course, this is about a lot more than just people getting to see some cute and cuddly animals. china's panda diplomacy programme has got a lot of political significance, too, and china has been lending out its pandas since the 1970s, as a way to build relationships and conduct diplomacy. but, of course, it is a source of diplomacy that could be turned off as well. and in recent years, we haven't seen pandas coming to the us because there's been an era of greater tensions and disagreements. so, the pandas being back at san diego zoo now does represent a kind of resetting of that relationship of sorts. and also, the money that's paid to china for the lend of these pandas also goes towards a lot of research and conservation work too.

hand of diplomacy. very well explained by emma vardy. sarah is taking a look at the weather. i don't know if you need to be diplomatic today. i like a sunny day, sarah. and often it's like, how do we present a fee not a sunny day and make it ok? that's it. everybody likes something different. if you do like the sunshine, you have some of it on offer later. good morning. we start offer later. good morning. we start off with quite a lot of mace, murk and low cloud. humid in the south. this is the picture in scarborough first thing. look at the temperatures. it is around about 17 to 20 degrees across much of england and wales. still quite humid and certainly mild. for scotland and northern ireland, typically 12 or 13. the fresher air moving in from the north—west. behind this cold front that will track eastwards through the day. quite a blustery

field to the weather today. particularly for parts of scotland and northern ireland. we could see gusts of 40 mph. drizzle clears from eastern england early on. then we are all under sunny skies. blustery showers in the north and west. temperatures in the mid to high teens in the north and west of the uk. for much of england and wales, 22 to 25 celsius. it will feel fresher as we head through the day and loosely the cloud and humidity. through this evening and denied more blustery showers packing and for scotland. more cloud rolling in across england and wales with the odd spot of drizzle. this coming night won't be quite as mild as last night. read about a 12 to 15. we have early cloud and drizzly rain for england and wales. it could linger in the far south for a good part of the day. sunny spells, blustery showers further north, and temperatures on saturday 15 to 25. similar to today. india is under it is going to be hotter, more humid,

but also more is going to be hotter, more humid, but also more sunshine is going to be hotter, more humid, but also more sunshine on is going to be hotter, more humid, but also more sunshine on offer. thank you. 17 minutes past six. a victim of domestic abuse has accused west mercia police of letting vulnerable women down, by failing to monitor an email inbox, set up to allow women to report incidents of violence and abuse. sadie hopkins, who was kidnapped and imprisoned in her own home by a former partner, reported a restraining order breach to west mercia police, but did not receive a response. the bbc�*s west midlands investigations team found that the inbox had not been routinely monitored for nine months. the police admitted that 26 emails were received but remained unread, many of them for several months. the oldest contact dated back to september 2023. of those emails, six required further action. west mercia police said they have now been allocated to a dedicated officer. our reporter tracey higgins has more. nine years ago, sadie hopkins was kidnapped and imprisoned in her own home by herformer partner, after he turned up

unexpectedly one night. i was just waiting for the knife to plunge. waiting to feel that sensation of being stabbed. he made me get on my hands and knees, and he shut all the curtains, locked all the doors. i had to crawl on my hands and knees up to the bedroom, the whole time with a knife being held against me. before the attack he'd been stalking herfor three months after she ended their relationship. i'd find him hiding outside bushes outside my house. um, just... ..he was just constantly about, constantly lurking in the shadows. sadie eventually managed to escape. her former partner was jailed and told not to contact her again, or enter shrewsbury after his release. i didn't trust people. i thought everybody was out to get me. constantly looking over my shoulder. wouldn't go out running alone any more.

it had a huge impact on my life, and my family's life. almost a decade later, sadie's sense of security was shattered. i was walking up the platform, and then all of a sudden ijust saw him. he has a restraining order, and he's not allowed to step foot in shrewsbury. i just couldn't understand why he was there. i panicked, i was frightened. i was finally getting my life back together and then, boom, you know, he's there. she contacted west mercia police on a dedicated website to report issues of violence and abuse, but heard nothing back. and that's when she came to us. our investigation has discovered that an email inbox set up by west mercia police for women to report issues of violence and abuse, hasn't been routinely monitored for nine months. so has the force failed the very people it should be protecting? so i wrote to them and said, you know, i'm frightened. you state that you're here to help women, um, that feel scared

and unsafe, and that you're trying to tackle this. i'm deeply sorry sadie has not received the service she should have received. and west mercia police have let her down. i'm absolutely committed, just as sadie refers to in there, of listening to the voices of the victims, ensuring that we are, not only deeply professional in our response, but incredibly compassionate as well. the value that sadie provides in providing her account will feed into our development and understanding of our officers and staff, so that we can improve our service. sadie's glad she's spoken out, but she's done so to protect other women from going through the same ordeal. the police need to listen to women. if a woman says she's scared, it will be for a genuine reason. basically, they don't respond until it's too late. that's when they respond, when when a bad thing has already happened and it's too late. somebody�*s gone, somebody�*s hurt. the time now is 6:21am. it is friday

morning. let's take a look at today's papers. the guardian features comments from the mayor of london, who says laws to stop the spread of fake news are not fit for purpose after misinformation online contributed to the far—right protests. the paper says sadiq khan is urging ministers to review the online safety bill as soon as possible. the times reports that police are examining links between far—right extremists and football hooligans amid fears of more violent clashes as the new season gets under way this weekend. the paper says police forces are in contact with the english football league and stadium security about tactics to prevent disorder. the telegraph reports that the supermarket chain asda is to put more staff on checkouts in an attempt to attract customers back into its stores, after admitting self—service technology has reached its limit. i remember when we had the whole discussion about self—service checkouts.

the merits of? the merits and not the merits. i think people are in two camps. convenience, but also you miss out talking with people and having that interaction. it is interesting that has happened. 6:22am. organised crime gangs are taking advantage of high street closures to set up industrial size cannabis farms in empty shops, cafes and theatres around the uk. according to the national police chiefs council, some landlords have even found themselves pulled into a multi—million—pound criminal industry. our wales correspondent, hywel griffith has been investigating. retreat! police! just behind the high street, right in the middle of town, gwent police raid a disused building in abertillery. inside, hundreds of mature cannabis plants fill every room. an industrial scale farm planted between the shops and takeaways. it seems to be one of the larger, um, operations that we've come across. there's certainly, as far as we can

see, at least seven large rooms. looking at it, it's probably something that's been going on for some time, and i would be very surprised if that was the first crop of plants that had come from this building. it's the latest farm the force has found in an empty retail property. back in october, 3,000 plants were uncovered growing across every floor of this old department store, right in the centre of newport. they're beautiful buildings, but unfortunately some of them have fallen into disrepair. they're not being used. so i think certainly these gangs, these organised crime groups, can see the opportunity to grow on a scale that they've never had the opportunity to grow before. in recent years, newport has had one of the highest retail vacancy rates in britain, and organised crime groups have taken advantage. big cannabis farms are also found in the old cinema and in city centre offices. but it's notjust in this corner of the country where there's a problem. from a bingo hall in barry to a disused bank in dudley,

high streets from aberdeenshire to weston—super—mare have all been raided by the police. once busy town centres have attracted a multi—million pound industry. but officers say it's not just drug dealers involved. it isn'tjust those that grow the cannabis that we are prosecuting, but we've also prosecuted landlords of these places who, at best, may be turning a blind eye to what's happening, as opposed to taking an active interest in what's happening in their properties. but alongside those tradespeople as well, we've seen prosecutions of estate agents, uh, electricians, people who've facilitated this trade. it's a business model which the police say also depends on human trafficking and serious violence to thrive, as organised crime groups profit from the high street�*s demise. hywel griffith, bbc news. a new device to help children with cystic fibrosis clear their lungs and breath more easily, has been designed by nurses at a hospital in warwickshire.

the hydro—bubble is cheap to make and can be given to parents for use at home, saving the nhs from providing costly, single use, equipment. our reporter, kevin reide, has been to find out more. four—year—old ivan was born with cystic fibrosis, or cf, as it's often called. it's a lifelong condition, one of its main effects being thick mucus that causes blockages inside the lungs. but now this new hydro bubble device can help. it provides a pressure that you blow against, a resistance. that keeps your lungs nice and open. so that makes the, i suppose, the roads open. so if there's any phlegm or, you know, mucus in your lungs, it makes it easier for it to travel up to a high place. you can cough it out. the oscillation effect — so when you blow the bubbles and you can see the bubbles forming, it shakes the secretions from the surrounding airways and makes it much easier to cough and remove that phlegm.

previously, parents would be issued with these standard bottles of sterile water from the hospital, along with some tubing, and that would have to be thrown away afterjust one use. but the new system can be washed in a dishwasher, or sterilised with tablets, and then used time and time again. and that saves the nhs money. the idea came from three nurses, including yasmin husaini and jane white, who work with child cf patients in warwickshire. and forjane, there was an unexpected use of the hydro bubble when her three—year—old daughter, who doesn't have cf, became ill with a bad chest infection. she was really struggling to clear her secretions, so we started using her on the hydro bubble. and within sort of 24 hours of starting on the hydro bubble, she'd managed to clear off all the horrible infection and she was back to her normal bouncy self. meanwhile, back with ivan, and he's leading as normal a life as possible in spite of having to take drugs, nebulisers and undergo physiotherapy every day. the hydro bubble just makes

life a little easier. we just fill it up with water, and then he can just carry it around as he's playing with his toys, giving it a blow. we try and do at least ten minutes of blowing, as long as he can, and then some nice big puffs in between, which brings all the mucus off his lungs. so it's far easier, much more fun. the fight against cystic fibrosis goes on, but modern treatments are undoubtedly improving the outlook for those who have it. kevin reide, bbc news. do you know the thing about nurses inventing that? it is that because they work so closely with the everyday rehabilitation of children or treatment, they have made that fun. when you are being treated, can you imagine having cystic fibrosis and struggling to breathe, make that fun and useful at the same time. they understand the realities. that is nurses through and through. time now to get the news,

travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm alison earle. a search is under way to find a retired doctorfrom hertfordshire who went missing while hiking in the french pyrenees. tom doherty from st albans, seen here in the middle, was last heard from on tuesday when he sent text messages to his family saying he'd fallen and couldn't move. rescue teams are looking for him, but say conditions on the mountain are difficult. kensington and chelsea council has accused the new labour government of letting algorithms set their agenda rather than reality, after ministers proposed tripling the area's housing target. the tory—run borough has been told to increase its annual target for new properties by 209%, even as london's overall figure has been reduced by 18%. a spokesman for the government said: "all areas of the country must play their part in building the homes we need." a giant red sculpture made

from an old car is the centre—piece of a new groundbreaking exhibition. homelessness reframed features works of art, photographs and everyday objects. the free event at the saatchi gallery is backed by the prince of wales' foundation and aims to help change perceptions. for me, it's about, you know, you hear these incredible stories that humanise homelessness and that it's not always rough sleeping, it's like not having somewhere safe to live — whether it's temporary accommodation, whether it's hostels, whether it's sofa—surfing. and there's so many stories you'll hear here on the sound or the artists themselves that are so gentle and so inspiring and powerful. southeastern is adding 220 new services to its timetable at the end of the year. they'll run on the greenwich and sidcup routes to connect to the elizabeth line. some evening services between charing cross and kent will also be extended to ashford. travel and this is how the tube is looking.

no service on thejubilee line between west hampstead and wembley park. that's affecting the metropolitan line. severe delays on the dlr now onto the weather with sophia. good morning. it felt like the wind was howling away for many of us last night. it's going to be breezy today, but not as breezy as it was yesterday. we have a little bit of cloud around through this morning. some light and patchy rain — that should clear away by the middle part of the day. we have plenty of sunshine, clearer skies and temperatures reaching around 25 or 26 celsius. through the night into saturday, it's staying largely dry. we've got some clearer spells for a time. staying mild — temperatures between 12 and 14 celsius. but as we start the day, we do have more cloud building in from the west and some light and patchy rain, as well. that will continue potentially through the middle part of the day, the early afternoon. but by the late afternoon, it should clear away and we should have more in the way of sunshine. it's feeling warm tomorrow once again at around 25 celsius.

as we look to sunday, though, it's going to be more hot and humid. we could see highs of 30 celsius orjust above. into monday, once again hot and humid. but as we look to tuesday, it starts to freshen up. there's lots more on our website and social media, including what's happened to the latest work by banksy. that's it. i'm back in around half an hour. hello, this is breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. let's get more on our top story. the recent disorder across england and northern ireland. much of the unrest we've seen since the fatal stabbings of three children at a dance class in southport 11 days ago, was fuelled in part by misinformation spread on social media about the alleged killer. our disinformation correspondent marianna spring has tracked down some of the people behind one of the first posts publishing false

information, and asked them why they did it. all this week, we've been telling you a lot about how misinformation, false claims on social media, have been accused of fuelling riots in the uk. i've been investigating where it's coming from and why it's being shared. one of the first pages to share false information about the southport tragedy was this unregulated news site called channel3 now. they wrote a story about the stabbings in southport and quickly posted it on social media. some of the details were correct, but the name of the 17—year—old charged was false and the article wrongly suggested that the alleged attacker was here seeking asylum. nevertheless, it was widely quoted and shared, often by accounts posting disinformation and far—right ideas. and because the site name sounded like a news station, people might have been less likely to question it. now, because of what happened in the uk this week, i tracked down some of the people linked to channel3 now to find out who they are. james is an amateur hockey player from nova scotia in canada. and then there's farhan. he's a dad who appears to be based

in lahore in pakistan. when i reached out to farhan, he blocked me. but i've confirmed both of their identities by speaking to people who know them. we don't know if either of these people were responsible for the misinformation about southport, as the article doesn't have a by—line. i was also able to speak to someone who says they're called kevin and based in texas. they say they're involved in the running of the site and its social media accounts. this person apologised for the inaccurate article, saying "this shouldn't have happened, but it was an error, not intentional". what i found out about channel3 now points towards a site that wants to make money from jumping on stories quickly, rather than intentionally looking to fuel riots. kevin said the site is covering as many stories as possible to generate income, so chasing clicks appears to have been more important than checking the facts. that's partly down to the design of the social media sites. x allows accounts to profit from their posts the more views they get, even if what they're saying is false.

so what's the solution? well, current legislation in the uk, like the online safety act, doesn't have the ability to deal with disinformation, although there are other laws that deal with hate, incitement, violence. plus lots of the people involved are based abroad. instead, the power lies mainly with the social media companies and partly with those who share this content, whether intentionally or not. x hasn't yet responded to the bbc�*s request for comment. take us to paris. a huge day of anticipation. we do not want to get carried away. katarina johnson—thompson, twice world champion but has not won an olympic medal, such bad luck. but she had one of the best first days of competition she has had. so still three events to go and things can change. a lead of 44 points.

is that a big lead? it is a narrow lead. it needs to be put into context. she is smiling. she has confidence which is important. nonstop, gruelling. multi talented you have to be in so many areas. after suffering bad luck and injury at the last three olympics and missing out, this time, it could be so different for katarina johnson—thompson, who leads the field going into the second day of the olympic heptathlon in paris. with three of the seven events to go, the reigning world champion is well placed to win her first ever olympic medal. sport correspondent laura scott is in paris. good morning. i know, huge excitement about this. kjt said it was her best first day of a competition for ages. what can we expect when it resumes? exactly. she will be excited ahead of today but knows she has three events remaining standing between

her and the elusive olympic medal. let's remind ourselves how well she did yesterday. it started well in the hurdles. she put on a good performance in the highjump. she said the highlight of yesterday was a personal best in the shot put. she said she did it for denise lewis. she said it was probably the best thing she had done in her career, some statement as she is world champion. it means she comes into this high on confidence and today will do the long jump. about nine o'clock this morning. she will then do the javelin. it could come down to the 800 metres because she has a slender lead over belgium's nafi thiam. but the stadium will be rocking if it comes down to the 800 metres to decide the podium places. at her fourth metres to decide the podium places. at herfourth olympics, can katarina

interest. . the new football league season starts tonight with matches in the championship and leagues one and two. and this weekend will be a very special one for bromley football club. based in north kent, they play their first ever match in the professional league tomorrow at harrogate. it's a moment many fans never thought they'd see because for so long, bromley were so bad, that their struggles were highlighted, in a book and a film. i've been to the club to find out more. chanting: we are going up, we are going up! - the celebrations at bromley this summer were simply unthinkable for generations. especially in the late 1960s, when one fan inadvertently fell in love with the club often regarded as the worst in non—league football. what about that little club down the road? bromley? yeah. no—one supports bromley. bromley are rubbish.

football is rubbish. that fan, dave roberts, went on to write a book about supporting the ultimate underdog and, in 2018, the bromley boys was turned into a film, released to much acclaim. they say you can't choose who you fall in love with and, thanks to my mum, fall in love with them, i did. dave roberts volunteered in the tea shop at the club through thick and thin before eventually moving away. dave passed away in 2021 so never got to see the rise of recent times, culminating in this historic promotion to the football league. his widow, liz, will be at the opening game and knows what it would mean to dave. i think he'd be probably in shock. it would have been like an emotional — he would have had to process that. but, yeah, he would have been, ithink, thrilled. disbelieving, at first, but thrilled,-

while dave roberts himself may not be here these days to serve the teas at this incredible moment in the club's history, bromley football club have made sure he's still very much a part of the story by recreating the dave roberts tea hut, just like the one at which he used to volunteer. a shrine to the fan who took the club onto the big screen. thanks to the film, roy and derek, two of the original bromley boys — part of dave's gang — now enjoy celebrity status wherever they go. and they still get their refreshments from the tea hut as they embrace this moment of history. dream come true. a dream come true, absolutely, yeah. if you wrote this book 20 years ago, that we'd be in the efl, you'd have been locked up, yeah. we went 28 games, at one stage, without a win. and you were lucky if you've got 40 or 50 people down here, it was that bad. everyone just laughed at us. we just laughed at it, as well, you know, because what else can you do? but now we've got the last laugh. yeah, we've got the last laugh, yeah. roy was portrayed in the movie

by the film's producer, tj, who was from bromley but now lives in portugal. i think it's that universal theme of, um, you can't choose who you fall in love with. and i think that extends into football teams, as well. it's about following something that you truly love through thick and thin. bromley can now get 5,000 fans rather than 50, with their new stands and state of the art facilities. it's largely down to the investment of owner robin stanton—gleaves, another local lad, who made his name in the it services industry and, while now looking to the future, he won't be forgetting the past and dave roberts. i think it would have been a lovely way for him to have seen. he is a dear name and a dear person to many people around here. and i guess what we're doing now is another romantic story — by taking a non—established non—league football team, football club, and taking them into the efl. all the kids at school willthink i'm weird. they all support leeds or west ham because it's easy. it's easy to follow success,

and i follow you guys. what's in it for me, eh? nothing _ nothing except a feeling of true togetherness and belonging. and i'm not alone. i'm sad that he's not here to see the glory, all the success that he manufactured, he started. but i'm sure he's still looking down on us. i yeah. i'm sure he's looking down on us. but this is a great legacy. yeah. — that he's left us. it's making a lot of people happy. yeah. an amazing thing for a fan to leave to their club. dave roberts. all the bromley fans as they go to harrogate for their moment in history tomorrow. as long as sport makes you happy, thatis as long as sport makes you happy, that is the thing. we have the olympics, with them, lovely. thanks. here sarah.

in parts of scotland and they will continue through the night. more cloud working in across england and wales. drizzle first thing tomorrow but not as warm and humid so 11—15 as we start the weekend. saturday brings cloud across england and wales with light rain which eases away. it lingers longest around southern england. a few showers further north. temperatures 15—25 on saturday. through sunday, more sunshine. less breezy. it will feel humid. temperatures up to about 29-30 in humid. temperatures up to about 29—30 in the warmest spots and staying warm and humid into monday. boaty mcboatface — britain's most famous robot submarine — has returned to shore after two months exploring the deep ocean. scientists hope that data gathered by the craft, which was affectionately named by the british public, will help us learn more about the pace of climate change.

our climate and science reporter georgina rannard has more. with only birds for company, boaty mcboatface is on the longest journey of its life — from chilly iceland to the shores of scotland. but as it dives thousands of metres, someone is keeping an eye on this little robot. we can be at home having a cup of tea, on the internet, and we can send it a message via satellite while it's out 300 miles to sea and tell it what to do. from mission control at the national oceanography centre in southampton, rob templeton and team track boaty�*s every move. the robots are their pride and joy. they look after a fleet of six, all with the same name voted for by the public. they're built to go where humans can't. the advantage of boaty is really the endurance and the ability to carry lots of sensors and stay out at sea for 50 days at a time. it can go and extend

the reach of the scientists. we've sent alr1 underneath the ice sheet at 40km, where you couldn't go with a ship. and it's here, inside the machines�* bellies, where the team install instruments, turning boaty into a mobile underwater lab. those robots are part of a huge british science project to understand this — phytoplankton. this sample came from the water down there and it's teeming with microscopic life. scientists need to understand marine life better to predict climate change. the robots can do some of the work, but, to find out the rest, scientists need to go to sea themselves. steph henson invited us aboard the james cook as it prepared to sail to iceland. scientists will live and work on here for weeks for a project called biocarbon. this is a working vessel. there's no swimming pool. there's no, like, bar and entertainment and all that kind of thing. this expedition wants to uncover what happens when animals eat phytoplankton, creating something called marine snow. this is actually sediment taken from close to the bottom of the ocean in a sediment trap.

this is actually sediment taken from flows to the bottom of the ocean in a sediment trap. this contains a lot of carbon and, believe it or not, it's this falling onto the sea floor as marine snow that keeps our atmospheric carbon dioxide levels about 50% lower than they would otherwise be. it's made up of tiny little particles of organic carbon and quite a lot of poo, actually. deep in the ocean, that marine snow is keeping our planet cooler. but life here is still mysterious. understanding it should help scientists make more accurate predictions about our warming world. and now they've got a head start. approaching scotland after 55 days at sea, boaty comes home with plenty of secrets to reveal about the ocean depths. georgina rannard, bbc news, southampton. the eternal fascination of the deep soft the scene. a whole new world. ,_,

millions of tourists come to the uk every year for traditional british tourist attractions like big ben and hadrian's wall, but the popularity of tv shows like peaky blinders, game of thrones and doctor who mean increasing numbers of people are coming to the uk to visit the set of their favourite tv shows. the coronation street set is close to where we are. if we cast our cameras over that way. ben is there. in coronation street, outside the pub. inside the pub. it's early. good morning. it is a bit early for a pint but if these couples could talk, the stories they could tell. we have come to one of britain's most famous streets, i dare say one of britain's most eventful streets with more of its

fair of births, marriages, deaths, scandals, tram crashes. you would think why would you come here? but people are increasingly drawn to sets like this to see where their favourite characters' storylines have played out. this tour gets 1000 visitors a day, up by 14% on last year. it is notjust people travelling locally, they come from finland, canada, even new zealand. it is a trend. notjetsetting but setjetting. around a third of people who come to the uk say they are drawn here to see where their favourite shows are filmed. and that adds up in one year alone worth something like £892 million to the uk economy. what is the appeal of doing set tours? i went along to another one to find out.

emmerdale theme. you could well be forgiven for thinking you're looking at the newest addition to the cast of emmerdale. i'm not, but i am here on the set where they film the show and i've come to find out about set tours, like this one happening today, and the rise in popularity of uk days out. now a little secret for you. we have people travel from around the world to come here. you know, i do these tours every weekend. we have people from new zealand, south africa, canada. they fly in even from the caribbean to spend time here. yorkshire's a very, very special place. well, we're from kaikoura in new zealand and we came here especially for the emmerdale tour. it was really high on our priority of things to do when we came here. really keen. you must be big fans of the show, then? yeah, we are. i started first and brought him in and now he loves it, as well. we watch it together every night. huge fans. this, it was bought as a christmas present from one of our sons. - i was really lookingj forward to doing it. tried to choose a nice day - and we seem to have done that.

yeah, i've watched it from since . probably the late '705, early '805. we love emmerdale. don't miss an episode. yeah _ and we're cousins and we usually try and treat ourselves to a full day out somewhere. and this was one of the ideas. and i kept saying i've never been, its on my bucket list, we've got to do it. people who are coming to the uk to come on holiday that might usually spend most of their time in london, at london—based attractions, and coming up to, you know, leeds and manchester to visit emmerdale and coronation street is bringing that tourism further north. spending time in our hotels, our restaurants and our bars and enjoying the beautiful countryside and the other things to see and do in the north of england. part of the appeal of tours like this one is people having the chance to take photos outside the iconic locations from their favourite shows, and the same is true of other film and tv sets, as well, which are also proving popular. the bbc series peaky blinders, although set in birmingham, is filmed across the north west of england, with tours focusing

on the liverpool locations. meanwhile, fans of game of thrones are drawn to belfast for the official studio tour of the hbo hit. whether fantasy, fiction or farm, it seems viewers are increasingly keen to not only watch but step in to their favourite shows. that is the state of the economy in weatherfield. four pages of local jobs. we can speak to alfie, a tour guide. what do people enjoy most? the most popular bits, we have the cabin owned by rita. the paperboy, very iconic. scott webster's garage. many people have worked here. underworld, always under siege, blowing up, but not at the weekends. the iconic gail platt lives here at

kensington and chelsea council has accused the new labour government of letting algorithms set their agenda rather than reality after ministers proposed tripling the area's housing target. the tory—run borough has been told to increase its annual target for new properties by 209%, even as london's overall figure has been reduced by 18%. a spokesman for the government said, "all areas of the country must play their part in building the homes we need." a giant red sculpture made from an old car is the centre—piece of a new groundbreaknig exhibition. homelessness reframed features works of art, photographs and everyday objects. the free event at the saatchi gallery is backed by the prince of wales's foundation and aims to help change perceptions. for me, it's about, you know, you hear these incredible stories that humanise homelessness and that it's not always rough sleeping, it's like not having somewhere safe to live — whether it's temporary accommodation, whether it's hostels, whether it's sofa—surfing. and so many stories you'll hear here on the sound or the artists themselves that are so gentle

and so inspiring and powerful. southeastern is adding 220 new services to its timetable at the end of the year. they'll run on the greenwich and sidcup routes to connect to the elizabeth line. some evening services between charing cross and kent will also be extended to ashford. travel now and this is how the tube is looking at the moment. now onto the weather with sophia. good morning. it felt like the wind was howling away for many of us last night. it's going to be breezy today, but not as breezy as it was yesterday. we have a little bit of cloud around through this morning. some light and patchy rain — that should clear away by the middle part of the day. we have plenty of sunshine, clearer skies and temperatures

reaching around 25 or 26 celsius. through the night into saturday, it's staying largely dry. we've got some clearer spells for a time. staying mild — temperatures between 12 and 14 celsius. but as we start the day, we do have more cloud building in from the west and some light and patchy rain, as well. that will continue potentially through the middle part of the day, the early afternoon. but by the late afternoon, it should clear away and we should have more in the way of sunshine. it's feeling warm tomorrow once again at around 25 celsius. as we look to sunday, though, it's going to be more hot and humid. we could see highs of 30 celsius orjust above. into monday, once again hot and humid. but as we look to tuesday, it starts to freshen up. there's lots more on our website and social media, including what's happened to the latest work by banksy. 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. the prime minister says the police should remain on high alert for more disorder despite several evenings of relative calm. former model katie price lands at heathrow airport and is then arrested for failing to attend court, and taken into police custody. from the joys of the lambing season to the challenges of climate change, we hear about a special project aiming to help people understand the highs and lows of farming life. in sport, a first ever olympic medal is within reach for katarina johnson—thompson, who leads in the hepathlon after a fantastic first day and with three more events to go. and good morning. we are going to see sunny spells developing today. some blustery showers are especially across scotland and northern ireland. details coming up.

good morning. it's friday, 9th august. our main story. at a meeting of the government's emergency cobra committee, the prime minister has said police need to "remain on high alert", as he thanked them and others from the criminaljustice system for their response to protests. sir keir starmer said there's no doubt rapid sentencing, as well as a major police presence across the country prevented widespread violence on wednesday night. our political correspondent harry farley has this report. two arrests and a heavy police presence in barnsley yesterday. but widespread riots expected on wednesday night never materialised. anti—racism protesters instead thronged the streets, chanting their support for refugees. government sources insist it's too early to tell whether a corner has been turned. ministers and police chiefs were tight lipped as they left a meeting of the emergency cobra committee last night. the prime minister is understood to have told them to remain on high alert.

he said there is no doubt rapid and public sentencing, as well as police stationed across the country, acted as a deterrent to prevent violence on wednesday night. well, we're going to continue with this strong policing response, making sure that there are additional police officers ready to respond, and also making sure we continue with the prosecutions, with the taking the cases rapidly to court and getting sentences. and we've seen the prison sentences that are following. the home secretary thanked police for their role. the 6,000 extra specialist officers mobilised to tackle the violence remain on standby. more sentences will take place today, including for those guilty of posting material online to stir up racial hatred. the focus, for now, is the police and the courts. but questions are already turning to the role of social media companies, and whether the laws due to regulate them are sufficient. labour's mayor of london, sadiq khan, says he thinks they're not fit for purpose. harry farley, bbc

news in westminster. our political correspondent damian grammaticas joins us now from westminster. good morning. there is another story to get the details. this is regarding a suspended labour councillor, who has been arrested. tell us more? morning, naga. that's right. the bbc understands this is rickyjones, a labour borough councillor, dartford in kent, and he had been suspended by the labour party earlier. we understand he has now been arrested. the metropolitan police confirmed yesterday that a man in his 50s had been arrested. they said in a statement that he was being held on suspicion of encouraging murder and for an offence under the public order act. but at the same time they put that out, they also put out on their x

account a video which had been taken at an anti—far—right rally, demonstration in walthamstow in london, in which a man could be seen that far—right demonstrators needed to have their throats cut. they are looking into that.— looking into that. thank you very much for that _ looking into that. thank you very much for that update. _ looking into that. thank you very much for that update. damian i much for that update. damian grammaticas. it is four minutes past seven. charlie, you are focusing on an arrest made last night here in the uk. someone who is quite well known inside circles. yes, this is heathrow airport. let's explain. the former model, katie price, has been arrested at heathrow airport and taken into police custody, for failing to attend court. an arrest warrant was issued for the 46—year—old last week, after she failed to attend a court hearing relating to her bankruptcies. ms price will appear in court later today, as sean dilley reports. back from holiday, but katie price's feet hardly touched the ground before she found herself in police custody. the former glamour model

was arrested by metropolitan police officers at 7:45pm last night, forfailing to show up at a high court bankruptcy hearing on the 30th ofjuly. the court said she failed to show despite knowing that he had to, and being given very clear warnings she would face arrest if she did not. the model, once known asjordan, had been due to answer questions about two bankruptcies. herfirst was in november 2019, the second in march this year. judge catherine burton said katie price had provided no real explanation for not turning up. she said, "it is in myjudgement necessary that the court issue a warrant for ms price's arrest." specialist lawyers had hoped to quiz katie price about her finances. she is already paying 40% of her earnings from the adult entertainment site only fans towards her first bankruptcy. her second relates to an unpaid tax bill of £750,000. now though, she is paying the price forfailing to show, with an uncomfortable landing, and a night in a west london police cell.

sean dilley, bbc news. donald trump and kamala harris have agreed a date for their first televised presidential debate. they'll go head—to—head on the us channel abc, on september the 10th. mr trump has said he also wants to do another two debates later in the month. here's our north america correspondent, peter bowes. the first presidential debate of the year didn't go well for one of the candidates. dealing with everything we have to do with, uh... look, if we finally beat medicare... that embarrassing performance byjoe biden eventually led to him dropping out of the presidential race. he was quickly replaced by kamala harris, whose energetic campaign has rejuvenated the democratic party. now it's harris versus trump.

and at a news conference at his mar a lago resort in florida, the former president attempted to belittle his new opponent, questioning her intelligence and political record. we have somebody that hasn't received one vote for president, and she's running, and that's fine with me. but we were givenjoe biden, and now we're given somebody else. and i think, frankly, i'd rather be running against the somebody else. but that was their choice. they decided to do that, because kamala's record is horrible. she's a radical left person at a level that nobody�*s seen. it's comments like that that prompted kamala harris last week to issue this challenge to donald trump. as the saying goes, if you've got something to say... crowd chants ..say it to my face! crowd cheers

now, the former president has finally agreed to a debate early next month, and he's suggesting another two in the weeks ahead. bring it on, says his opponent. well, i'm glad that he's finally agreed to a debate on september 10th. i'm looking forward to it, and, um, hope he shows up. the debates will be crucial for both candidates ahead of polling day in november. with kamala harris�*s rapid rise in the popularity stakes... crowd: kamala! kamala! - ..mr trump will be looking to use his favourite platform, television, to reinvigorate his campaign. crowd: usa! usa! - it's going to be compulsive viewing. peter bowes, bbc news, los angeles. people who have been wrongly convicted and imprisoned, and subsequently compensated, will not be given back money which was used to pay for their prison accommodation. the decision comes after the conservative lord chancellor, alex chalk, last year said that future cases will not face deductions.

the family of a retired british doctor has issued an urgent appeal after he went missing in the french pyrenees almost 48—hours ago. tom doherty, who is 67 and from st albans in hertfordshire, was travelling alone in southern france. a search is under way involving helicopters and dogs. there has been a sharp decline in the number of foreign workers and students applying to come to the uk. provisionalfigures from the home office show visa applications were down by a third injuly, compared to last summer. the conservative government passed a law, blocking certain migrants from bringing family members to britain last year. britain's katarina johnson—thompson is in prime position for her first olympic medal. she leads the heptathlon going into day two of the event in paris. meanwhile, ellie aldridge is team gb's latest gold medallist. she became the inaugural kite champion yesterday. our sports correspondent joe lynskey has more. her best high jumper for five years,

the best shot putt of her life. katarina johnson—thompson is more than halfway there to gold. she is the reigning heptathlon world champion, but at the olympics she's never had a start like this. at three games before, her best place has been sixth. now, with three events left, the rest have to catch up. it's the heptathlon. very tired at the end of this day, so, you know what? i'll take it. what will you do know for the next 12 hours? recover and eat. try and sleep. see you bright and early. noah lyles burst through the doors to the track where his star has grown. blink and you miss him. the 100 metre champion now going for the double. but the 200 metres saw him fall back to bronze. letsile tebogo won it. lyles had to leave with assistance. not long after the race, his us team said he had covid. in marseille, a first look

at the sprinters with the sail. kite boarders reach up to 40 mph, then risk it all around the bends. nolot is in the water! aldridge taking the lead. that fall came in the final and changed the race for the briton. ellie aldridge clear for gold in this sport's olympic debut. could you have believed you would be standing here with a kiting gold medal? no! it's crazy. incredible. we haven't had the easiest conditions. it's been really tricky. but yeah, it's been really cool. i hope everyone watches it on tv and thinks the same thing. emma finucane took bronze in the kirin. she called her second medal of these games surreal. a feeling perhaps too for cindy ngamba, in the ring representing the refugee olympic team, and fighting for its first medal. for the last 15 years she has lived in bolton.

she trains with british boxers, but still awaits a uk passport. in blue, from panama... she lost this semifinal by split decision, but she had done what no one has done before — to go to an olympics as a refugee athlete and leave it with a bronze. joe lynskey, bbc news. michael beer here later talking more about the olympics, looking ahead. —— michael will be here. also talking to our latest gold medallist. that is not a gold medallist. this is an ambassador, a goodwill ambassador. the first giant pandas to enter the united states in 21 years were revealed at their new enclosure at san diego zoo yesterday. it's part of the chinese government's so—called, panda diplomacy, where it lends bears to zoos in various countries as goodwill animal ambassadors. our los angeles correspondent, emma vardy, has the details.

the pandas actually arrived back injune, but they've spent a bit of time acclimatising, getting used to their new surroundings. but now, they are on display to the public, and they're going to attract a lot of visitors, because people are just so fascinated by these animals. they are called yun chuan and sin bao. they're five and four years old. and the habitat they're going to be living in at san diego zoo is called panda ridge. i'm told it's some four times larger than the last enclosure they had for the pandas, back when pandas used to be at the zoo previously. but, of course, this is about a lot more than just people getting to see some cute and cuddly animals. china's panda diplomacy programme has got a lot of political significance, too, and china has been lending out its pandas since the 1970s, as a way to build relationships and conduct diplomacy. but, of course, it is a source of diplomacy that could be turned off as well. and in recent years, we haven't seen pandas coming to the us

because there's been an era of greater tensions and disagreements. so, the pandas being back at san diego zoo now does represent a kind of resetting of that relationship of sorts. and also, the money that's paid to china for the lend of these pandas also goes towards a lot of research and conservation work too. pander diplomacy. there you go. i didn't know it was called pander diplomacy. it kind of makes sense. good morning, sarah. i don't think you need to thread it through carefully today. i think you have something for everyone, haven't you? i have, absolutely. good morning. a bit of everything in the forecast over the next few days. some warmer weather if you are after it, over the course of the weekend. today, things will turn brighter and fresher. already some sunshine working through warwickshire. we

still have high temperatures, especially in the south. 20 degrees at the moment in london. in the north, across scotland and northern ireland, 12 or 13. as the fresher air moves in behind the cold front. that leaves eastern england, leaves a westerly breeze. a blustery feeling day. south—westerly winds in the west of scotland. further south, once the cloud clears away from eastern england, we are left with sunny spells. most of the showers will be for scotland and northern ireland. top temperatures 15 to 25 north to south. pleasant enough in the sunshine. into the evening hours, more showers come in for scotland. they will continue through the night. more cloud and drizzle for england and wales. tonight may not be as warm as last night. 11 to 15 in towns and cities as we start the weekend. saturday we start with cloud in england and wales. it

should clear away for most. lingering longest south of the m4 corridor. temperatures up to 24, 25. further north, high teens, low 20s. drier, warmer and more humid into sunday. thank you. from the rural idyll of lambing season to dealing with financial insecurity caused by bad weather, every day is different when you work on a farm. for the last 24 hours, the bbc has been looking at some of the challenges facing the industry. it is all part of a campaign called farm watch — set up to inform and educate the public about what it's really like to be a farmer. let's take a look. well, you could have had a look but we have not got it for you. but what we have not got it for you. but what we can do is show you a feed at this moment in time. well, it's a frozen combine harvester. no, it is moving.

is it a combine harvester, or a tractor? a p viner. if you want out things like that, what you do is you get a guest in who knows their onions! good morning. we're joined now by youtuber and farmer tom pemberton and agricultural chaplain, david newlove. i suppose in a way what happened there is a bit like farming, isn't it? things don't always go according to plan and you have to deal with things in the moment. was it you who was giving us the expertise? it is a viner that connects the peas off the ground, breaks the pods. a tractor and trailer comes alongside, put all the peas in and they go to the factory to be frozen. i think from harvest to frozen there is 90 _ i think from harvest to frozen there

is 90 minutes. i think from harvest to frozen there is 90 minutes-— frozen peas people always think they are fresh because they taste so great. since we couldn't play that film, welcome, by the way, can you tell us what this project is with the bbc? what has been going on over the bbc? what has been going on over the last 24 hours? it is the bbc? what has been going on over the last 24 hours?— the last 24 hours? it is showcasing all the good _ the last 24 hours? it is showcasing all the good farmers _ the last 24 hours? it is showcasing all the good farmers do _ the last 24 hours? it is showcasing all the good farmers do in - the last 24 hours? it is showcasing all the good farmers do in 24 - the last 24 hours? it is showcasing. all the good farmers do in 24 hours. obviously— all the good farmers do in 24 hours. obviously farming is a 24—hourjob. it obviously farming is a 24—hourjob. it could _ obviously farming is a 24—hourjob. it could he — obviously farming is a 24—hourjob. it could be calving cows myself, or harvesting — it could be calving cows myself, or harvesting later, he could be a massive — harvesting later, he could be a massive rush. we have been doing it for ten _ massive rush. we have been doing it for ten years — massive rush. we have been doing it for ten years now. i think it is a ten year— for ten years now. i think it is a ten year celebration.— for ten years now. i think it is a ten year celebration. what does it do in terms _ ten year celebration. what does it do in terms of _ ten year celebration. what does it do in terms of how— ten year celebration. what does it do in terms of how people - ten year celebration. what does it do in terms of how people view i do in terms of how people view farming? i don't want to be divisive, but you have people like me, who grew up in the city, never really went to a farm until i was in my mid—20s, i don't think wasn't familiar with the countryside, what does it do in terms of educating people? does it do in terms of educating ..eole? , ~'

for him, but say conditions on the mountain are difficult. kensington and chelsea council has accused the new labour government of letting algorithms set their agenda rather than reality after ministers proposed tripling the area's housing target. the tory—run borough has been told to increase its annual target for new properties by 209%, even as london's overall figure has been reduced by 18%. a spokesman for the government said, "all areas of the country must play their part in building the homes we need." a giant red sculpture made from an old car is the centre—piece of a new groundbreaknig exhibition. homelessness reframed features works of art, photographs and everyday objects. the free event at the saatchi gallery is backed by the prince of wales's foundation and aims to help change perceptions. for me, it's about, you know, you hear these incredible stories that humanise homelessness and that it's not always rough sleeping, it's like not having somewhere safe to live —

whether it's temporary accommodation, whether it's hostels, whether it's sofa—surfing. and so many stories you'll hear here on the sound or the artists themselves that are so gentle and so inspiring and powerful. southeastern is adding 220 new services to its timetable at the end of the year. they'll run on the greenwich and sidcup routes to connect to the elizabeth line. some evening services between charing cross and kent will also be extended to ashford. travel and this is how the tube is looking at the moment. there's no service on thejubilee line between west hampstead and wembley park. that's affecting the metropolitan line. severe delays on the bakerloo lines. now onto the weather with sarah keith—lucas. is been a fairly humid and cloudy

start but things will improve. temperatures on the rise. it will be warm and humid especially by sunday. back to this morning. a few spots of light drizzle should clear to the east. then we are left with sunny spells into the afternoon. a breeze from a westerly direction so it will feel fresher first thing. temperatures up to 25. as we move through this evening and overnight, we have clear skies first thing. during the second half of the night, the cloud increasing from the west so i think it will not be as humid as it was this morning. temperatures 12-14 to as it was this morning. temperatures 12—14 to start the weekend. saturday looks like a mostly dry day but a fair amount looks like a mostly dry day but a fairamount of looks like a mostly dry day but a fair amount of cloud. hot and sunny on sunday with temperatures continuing to rise into monday. there's lots more on our website and social media including what's happened to the latest work by banksy? that's it i'm back in

around half an hour. hello this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. police forces in england and northern ireland have been appealing for help to identify people involved in the violent disorder and riots over recent days. our reporter leanne brown has been looking at the images released by humberside police in relation to incidents in hull. the faces of the men humberside police want to speak to. and many of them caught on ourfootage, too. this man seen in a beige hat and wearing glasses. the faces of the men humberside police want to speak to. he's seen standing in front of police in queen victoria square. this man with tattoos on his arm wearing a black t—shirt — we see him twice in ourfootage, once on king edward street at the police line and then again in the spring bank area, where violence erupted. a man with a grey hooded top and a rucksack was also

spotted in that area. in this footage shared on social media, he appears to be amongst a mob of people attacking a car and opening the door. police have confirmed that no—one was hurt here. in this image, a man with a black flat cap and scarf looks like he's about to throw an object. we saw him hanging around jameson street while shops where being looted. and there are warnings it's notjust those at the scene that are wanted by police. this man with a greyjumper around his neck was seen by us outside the royal hotel. he's got his hands on a police shield. and is being cheered on to throw bottles. a distinctive white and orange hat makes this man easy to spot — we saw him wandering the streets and kicking a car. anyone who recognises any of the 13

men can contact police. leanne brown, bbc news. we'rejoined now by cabinet office minister nick thomas—symonds. thank you for your time. those pictures, even when you watch them and think they are a few days ago, they are chilling. how confident are you we will not see incidents like that happening in the coming days? first it is good to join you. that happening in the coming days? first it is good tojoin you. i could not see the images then. i am sure i understand what you refer to and to save the images we all have seen over recent days, back to last week, on our streets, seen over recent days, back to last week, on ourstreets, have seen over recent days, back to last week, on our streets, have been appalling. my message is the government goes into this weekend still in a state of high readiness

to keep communities safe. i think we have shown the criminaljustice system will deal with these violent thugs quickly. we have seen prison sentences handed down within days of “p sentences handed down within days of up to three years. there are people who are seeing the consequences of their behaviour by sitting in a prison cell because of what they have done and it is important to send that message out. secondly, the government is deploying thousands of specialist police officers up and down the country. that will continue. the prime minister chaired a cobra meeting last night in which he indicated we go into the weekend prepared to do everything we can to keep people safe and that is exactly what we will do. you keep people safe and that is exactly what we will do.— what we will do. you are prepared but are you _ what we will do. you are prepared but are you expecting? _ what we will do. you are prepared but are you expecting? on - what we will do. you are prepared - but are you expecting? on wednesday, we knew more than 160 demonstrations were planned. i think 36 took place.

i am not asking you to reveal confidential or security sensitive information but is there information that says more are planned? irate information but is there information that says more are planned? we have all seen various _ that says more are planned? we have all seen various information _ that says more are planned? we have all seen various information and - that says more are planned? we have all seen various information and in . all seen various information and in some cases misinformation that has been going around online. i will not comment as you would not expect me to our intelligence. but as we go into the weekend, we are prepared for different eventualities. we have those specialist officers available. in addition to that, i was in bristol yesterday talking to communities that have been affected. and talking to them about their concerns and fears. i was talking to muslim community leaders there. the government has a fund available for

the security of mosques and if there are people with concerns who would like additional security, the government stands ready to help. that is the case anyway but particularly at the moment. can you keep muslim _ particularly at the moment. can you keep muslim communities - particularly at the moment. can you keep muslim communities safe? - particularly at the moment. can you | keep muslim communities safe? we will keep muslim communities safe? , will do everything we can to keep them safe. i delivered that message personally yesterday when i was in bristol talking to them. i had a walk around bristol, understanding from them what their anxieties were. in our country, we will keep everybody safe, that is what this government will do. the safety of citizens is the priority of any government. it is our top priority. i understand that. i apologise for interrupting. the fact is there are still people who are not satisfied with government policy, particularly

when it comes to immigration. that dissatisfaction is not going away and they have the right to protest. how is that discontent going to be tackled? to avoid this division we are seeing way you see communities feeling unsafe. are seeing way you see communities feeling unsafe-— feeling unsafe. there is a distinction _ feeling unsafe. there is a distinction because - feeling unsafe. there is a distinction because i - feeling unsafe. there is a l distinction because i spoke feeling unsafe. there is a - distinction because i spoke to people in the general election and in the months and years before that expressing concerns about the level of migration. but they are decent, law—abiding british people. they were not the type of people who will engage in violent behaviour on the streets. it is important we are clear. someone who turns up on our streets carrying a weapon is not going to protest about anything, they are going with criminal intent, intent on thuggish behaviour and

let's be clear about that distinction. on people's legitimate concerns about migration, that came up concerns about migration, that came up on the doorsteps with people expressing views in a reasonable way in the election with candidates and two members of parliament before that. with regard to levels of migration, the government has said we believe the level of net migration needs to come down. that is regular migration. in terms of people in small boats coming across the channel we have started work setting up border security command to bring together different agencies to bring together different agencies to start busting the smuggling gangs and that is going on. that is very different people with legitimate concerns from the thugs on the streets. ., , ,., , concerns from the thugs on the streets. ., , ,._ ., ,., streets. people will say the reason there was relative _ streets. people will say the reason there was relative peace _ streets. people will say the reason there was relative peace over- streets. people will say the reason there was relative peace over the i there was relative peace over the last days is because of counter protests. they went out against

go out not to protest about anything in particular but because they are intent on committing crime which is different. , , ., .. ., ., different. give me your reaction to the labour— different. give me your reaction to the labour councillor _ different. give me your reaction to the labour councillor who - different. give me your reaction to the labour councillor who has - different. give me your reaction to| the labour councillor who has been arrested, he was at a counter protest in walthamstow is saying far right demonstrators needed to have their throats cut. he right demonstrators needed to have their throats cut.— their throats cut. he was immediately _ their throats cut. he was immediately suspended | their throats cut. he was - immediately suspended from the labour party. in terms of the criminal proceedings, i understand the individual has been arrested so i am not going to comment on the proceedings while they are ongoing. but moving away from the individual case, whoever you are, if you are engaging in violent behaviour on our streets or threatening behaviour or indeed engaging in threatening and inciting behaviour online, the police will be coming for you. you should be expected to be treated quickly by the criminaljustice

system whoever you are. thank you very much- — everyone wants to know what it's like at the weekend.— like at the weekend. absolutely. good morning. _ like at the weekend. absolutely. good morning. the _ like at the weekend. absolutely. good morning. the weekend - like at the weekend. absolutely. l good morning. the weekend holds warmer weather and by sunday it will feel hot and humid. some humid air to start today especially towards the south. you might wake up to cloud but brighter skies are developing. this is dumfries and galloway first thing. sunny spells will develop but there will be blustery showers. a windy spell of weather for some especially in the north. we have a cold front moving east introducing fresher air. the westerly airflow will be blustery bringing showers in scotland, northern ireland, perhaps northern england and north wales. south and

east, once you have lost the early morning drizzle, long spells of sunshine. it will feel fresher so not as humid in the afternoon. temperatures a pleasant 21r—25 in the south. the low 20s and high teams in the north and feeling cooler in the brisk wind. more showers across scotland tonight. elsewhere, cloud across england and wales and there could be some rain and drizzle in the south. not as humid as last night with temperatures about 11—15 to start the weekend. we have low pressure to the north, high pressure towards the south keeping things mostly dry. this weather front will slide eastwards across central england and wales. on saturday, it brings more cloud. you can see rain coming from that. it should brighten up coming from that. it should brighten up in wales and northern england and

the midlands. still showers but not as many as today. temperatures around 15—25 north to south. cloudy in southern counties of england into the afternoon. on sunday, a change of wind direction, coming from the south, so a lot of dry and sunny weather. rain lingering in the west which could throw the odd shower in northern ireland, south—west of england. but most will be dry and feeling hot and humid. temperatures up feeling hot and humid. temperatures up to 30 in the warmest spots but further north, into the mid 20s. further ahead, sunday night is when things might change because rain moves eastwards and some of it is heavy, potentially thundery. on monday, it will linger in northern areas whereas further south, you will probably miss the showers. it could be the warmest day of the year so far. up to 32. feeling humid but

fresher further north with the showers. as we head through next week, largely dry but not as hot in the south. sunny spells and scattered showers further north. there is a connection somewhere along the way. we were talking to farmers and how busy they are all the time. and we have a live camera from lincolnshire. they are collecting the pea crop. they are having a break. everybody needs a break. they are busy. that is the view from the pea viner. mike. good morning. toa to a fast and furious sport. spectacular. kite. 50 mph, they can reach. almost like floating across the water. they make it look easy but do

the water on a small kite board. last week was tricky conditions. there was not much racing happening. it was so light. unlike other sailing classes we cannotjust wait for the wind to come in on our sailing boat because we do not have one. if there is no wind, the kite will fall in the water and everyone is swimming around. we had a bit of that last week but luckily yesterday the wind came in and it was a beautiful day in marseille and we got good racing in.— got good racing in. does it feel like fl in: got good racing in. does it feel like flying when _ got good racing in. does it feel like flying when you _ got good racing in. does it feel like flying when you are - got good racing in. does it feel like flying when you are on - got good racing in. does it feel like flying when you are on it? | got good racing in. does it feel - like flying when you are on it? yes. i mean, like flying when you are on it? yes. i mean. it — like flying when you are on it? yes. i mean. it is _ like flying when you are on it? yes. i mean, it is an _ like flying when you are on it? yes. i mean, it is an incredible - like flying when you are on it? yes i mean, it is an incredible feeling. it is hard to explain. it is so crazy. it is super quiet. you are completely powered by the wind and nature. the only sound you have is a little whistle from the hydrofoils.

ministers and police chiefs were tight lipped as they left a meeting of the emergency cobra committee last night. the prime minister is understood to have told them to remain on high alert. he said there is no doubt rapid and public sentencing, as well as police stationed across the country, acted as a deterrent to prevent violence on wednesday night. well, we're going to continue with this strong policing response, making sure that there are additional police officers ready to respond, and also making sure we continue with the prosecutions, with the taking the cases rapidly to court and getting sentences. and we've seen the prison sentences that are following. the home secretary thanked police for their role. the 6,000 extra specialist officers mobilised to tackle the violence remain on standby. more sentences will take place today, including for those guilty of posting material online to stir up racial hatred. the focus, for now, is the police and the courts. but questions are already turning to the role

metropolitan police put out a video on their x account that showed an anti—far right demonstration, in walthamstow in london, and a man telling the crowd that far right demonstrators needed to have their throats cut. police say the man they have arrested is being held on suspicion of encouraging murder and for an offence under the public order act. and he was in custody last night. while this is happening, as you were hearing there, the government is very focused on the issue of both policing coming into the coming weekend, police monitoring what is happening online to try to prepare for any possible new outbreaks of disorder. also taking into account the football season and whether that should be correct or affect their policing. what are the government is hoping is that they will be more court appearances today, more sentences around the country, and they really do hope and think it is having a

deterrent. thank you very much. five minutes past eight. charlie, there was an arrest yesterday. many people will recognise the person who has been arrested? yes, this was late last night. the former model, katie price, has been arrested at heathrow airport and taken into police custody, for failing to attend court. an arrest warrant was issued for the 46—year—old last week, after she failed to attend a court hearing relating to her bankruptcies. ms price will appear in court later today, back from holiday, but katie price's feet hardly touched the ground before she found herself in police custody. the former glamour model was arrested by metropolitan police officers at 7:45pm last night, forfailing to show up at a high court bankruptcy hearing on the 30th ofjuly. the court said she failed to show despite knowing that he had to, and being given very clear warnings she would face arrest if she did not. the model, once known asjordan, had been due to answer questions about two bankruptcies. herfirst was in november 2019,

the second in march this year. judge catherine burton said katie price had provided no real explanation for not turning up. she said, "it is in myjudgement necessary that the court issue a warrant for ms price's arrest." specialist lawyers had hoped to quiz katie price about her finances. she is already paying 40% of her earnings from the adult entertainment site only fans towards her first bankruptcy. her second relates to an unpaid tax bill of £750,000. now though, she is paying the price forfailing to show, with an uncomfortable landing, and a night in a west london police cell. sean dilley, bbc news. donald trump and kamala harris have agreed a date for their first televised presidential debate. they'll go head—to—head on the us channel abc, on september the 10th. mr trump has said he also wants to do another two debates later in the month. here's our north america

correspondent, peter bowes. the first presidential debate of the year didn't go well for one of the candidates. dealing with everything we have to do with, uh... look, if we finally beat medicare... that embarrassing performance byjoe biden eventually led to him dropping out of the presidential race. he was quickly replaced by kamala harris, whose energetic campaign has rejuvenated the democratic party. now it's harris versus trump. and at a news conference at his mar a lago resort in florida, the former president attempted to belittle his new opponent, questioning her intelligence and political record. we have somebody that hasn't received one vote for president, and she's running, and that's fine with me. but we were givenjoe biden, and now we're given somebody else. and i think, frankly,

i'd rather be running against the somebody else. but that was their choice. they decided to do that, because kamala's record is horrible. she's a radical left person at a level that nobody�*s seen. it's comments like that that prompted kamala harris last week to issue this challenge to donald trump. as the saying goes, if you've got something to say... crowd chants ..say it to my face. crowd cheers now, the former president has finally agreed to a debate early next month, and he's suggesting another two in the weeks ahead. bring it on, says his opponent. well, i'm glad that he's finally agreed to a debate on september 10th. i'm looking forward to it, and, um, hope he shows up. the debates will be crucial for both candidates ahead of polling day in november. with kamala harris's rapid rise in the popularity stakes... crowd: kamala!

kamala! - ..mr trump will be looking to use his favourite platform, television, to reinvigorate his campaign. crowd: usa! usa! - it's going to be compulsive viewing. peter bowes, bbc news, los angeles. when people are wrongly convicted and imprisoned, they sometime receive financial compensation. people who have been wrongly convicted and imprisoned, and subsequently compensated, will still have to shoulder the costs incurred of housing them during their time in prison. the decision comes after the conservative lord chancellor, alex chalk, last year said that future cases will not face deductions. the family of a retired british doctor has issued an urgent appeal after he went missing in the french pyrenees almost 48 hours ago. tom doherty, who is 67 and from st albans in hertfordshire, was travelling alone in southern france. a search is under way involving helicopters and dogs. there has been a sharp decline in the number of foreign workers and students applying to come to the uk. provisionalfigures

building in abertillery. inside, hundreds of mature cannabis plants fill every room. an industrial scale farm planted between the shops and takeaways. it seems to be one of the larger, um, operations that we've come across. there's certainly, as far as we can see, at least seven large rooms. looking at it, it's probably something that's been going on for some time, and i would be very surprised if that was the first crop of plants that had come from this building. it's the latest farm the force has found in an empty retail property. back in october, 3,000 plants were uncovered growing across every floor of this old department store, right in the centre of newport. they're beautiful buildings, but unfortunately some of them have fallen into disrepair. they're not being used. so i think certainly these gangs, these organised crime groups, can see the opportunity to grow on a scale that they've never had the opportunity to grow before. in recent years, newport has had one

of the highest retail vacancy rates in britain, and organised crime groups have taken advantage. big cannabis farms are also found in the old cinema and in city centre offices. but it's notjust in this corner of the country where there's a problem. from a bingo hall in barry to a disused bank in dudley, high streets from aberdeenshire to weston—super—mare have all been raided by the police. once busy town centres have attracted a multi—million pound industry. but officers say it's not just drug dealers involved. it isn'tjust those that grow the cannabis that we are prosecuting, but we've also prosecuted landlords of these places who, at best, may be turning a blind eye to what's happening, as opposed to taking an active interest in what's happening in their properties. but alongside those tradespeople as well, we've seen prosecutions of estate agents, uh, electricians, people who've facilitated this trade. it's a business model which the police say also depends on human trafficking and serious violence to thrive, as organised crime groups profit

from the high street�*s demise. hywel griffith, bbc news. we can speak now to allen morgan, who's a former police officer and an expert witness for criminal drugs trials. good morning to you. morning. we saw some of those — good morning to you. morning. we saw some of those places _ good morning to you. morning. we saw some of those places that _ good morning to you. morning. we saw some of those places that have - good morning to you. morning. we saw some of those places that have been i some of those places that have been taken over and used to grow cannabis. give us a sense of the scale and how it has changed? well, it's been a huge _ scale and how it has changed? well, it's been a huge change. _ scale and how it has changed? in it's been a huge change. organised crime groups looking to capitalise on diverse income streams and moving into vacant premises with plenty of space available. it is seeing that shift from domestic growing into large—scale commercial properties being used, simply because of the number of cannabis plants that can be accommodated within locations

he said the government is committed to protecting muslim communities. we will do everything we can to keep them safe. i delivered that message personally yesterday when i was out in bristol talking to them. i had a walk around bristol, understanding exactly from them what their anxieties were. look, in our country, we will keep everybody safe. that is absolutely what this government will do. the safety of our citizens is the first priority of any government. let's speak to the chair of the mosques and imams national advisory board, imam qari asim. and to campaigner and faith adviser drjulie siddiqi. good morning. i wonder, qari asim, did you hear the minister talking about reassurances? i wonder what you make

is that fear. we are helping to pull together mosques around the country who wanted events today and show solidarity. on the back of the outpouring of love and support and offering of help that people have received in mosques and individually all over the country. we have events in mosques around the country. small, intimate, local events with neighbours, people of different faiths, and it is supported from priti patel to angela rayner, rabbis. the archbishop of canterbury, two wonderful people saying we need to stand together with muslim communities. friday prayers felt like the right day to do that and that is what we are doing today. do that and that is what we are doing today-— doing today. messages to communities. _ doing today. messages to communities. there i doing today. messages to communities. there has l doing today. messages to i communities. there has been so doing today. messages to _ communities. there has been so many reports of communities coming together. how important is that to you as a muslim? it is

long jump. after suffering bad luck and injury at the last three olympics and missing out on a medal, the first olympic one is within touching distance for katarina johnson—thompson, who leads the field going into the second day of the olympic heptathlon in paris with three of the seven events to go. sport correspondent laura scott is in paris. she is inside the stadium. i can see the crowds gathering. the atmosphere must be electric ahead of the start of the long jump in 25 minutes? absolutely. you can see behind me the stand is filling up. they have tested the sound system. getting the crowd going. in around half an hour, katarina johnson—thompson will walk out onto the track and start with the long jump ahead of the javelin and the 800 metres. she had a superb start yesterday. putting in season's best performances in the hurdles and highjump. she was particularly thrilled with the shot put, throwing

underdog and, in 2018, the bromley boys was turned into a film, released to much acclaim. they say you can't choose who you fall in love with and, thanks to my mum, fall in love with them, i did. dave roberts volunteered in the tea shop at the club through thick and thin before eventually moving away. dave passed away in 2021 so never got to see the rise of recent times, culminating in this historic promotion to the football league. his widow, liz, will be at the opening game and knows what it would mean to dave. i think he'd be probably in shock. it would have been like an emotional — he would have had to process that. but, yeah, he would have been, ithink, thrilled. disbelieving, at first, but thrilled, yeah. while dave roberts himself may not be here these days to serve the teas at this incredible moment in the club's history,

bromley football club have made sure he's still very much a part of the story by recreating the dave roberts tea hut — just like the one at which he used to volunteer. a shrine to the fan who took the club onto the big screen. thanks to the film, roy and derek, two of the original bromley boys — part of dave's gang — now enjoy celebrity status wherever they go. and they still get their refreshments from the tea hut as they embrace this moment of history. dream come true. a dream come true, absolutely, yeah. if you wrote this book 20 years ago, that we'd be in the efl, you'd have been locked up, yeah. we went 28 games, at one stage, without a win. and you were lucky if you've got 40 or 50 people down here, it was that bad. everyone just laughed at us. we just laughed at it, as well, you know, because what else can you do? but now we've got the last laugh. yeah, we've got the last laugh, yeah. roy was portrayed in the movie by the film's producer, tj, who was from bromley but now lives in portugal. i think it's that universal theme of, um, you can't choose

who you fall in love with. and i think that extends into football teams, as well. it's about following something that you truly love through thick and thin. bromley can now get 5,000 fans, rather than 50, with their new stands and state of the art facilities. it's largely down to the investment of owner robin stanton—gleaves, another local lad, who made his name in the it services industry and, while now looking to the future, he won't be forgetting the past and dave roberts. i think it would have been a lovely way for him to have seen. he is a dear name and a dear person to many people around here. and i guess what we're doing now is another romantic story — by taking a non—established non—league football team, football club, and taking them into the efl. all the kids at school willthink i'm weird. they all support leeds or west ham because it's easy. it's easy to follow success, and i follow you guys. what's in it for me, eh? nothing. nothing except a feeling of true

togetherness and belonging. and i'm not alone. i'm sad that he's not here to see the glory, all the success that he manufactured, he started. but i'm sure he's still looking down on us. yeah. i'm sure he's looking down on us. but this is a great legacy. yeah. that he's left us. yeah. it's making a lot of people happy. yeah. it isa it is a story that resonates with football fans across the world. you do not necessarily choose your team but important to stick with them and once you fall in love with them you can't change them. nice to see a sheepskin coat. i know when they run out at harrogate, an historic moment, they will have one man in their minds, dave roberts. and what it will mean to him. i am sure he will be looking down.

stories are the things that reel us in. you do not have to be a football fan to appreciate that. it is a good human story. the emotion of supporting the underdog. where is the game? harrogate. tomorrow. how is the weather looking? tomorrow. how is the weather lookina ? . tomorrow. how is the weather lookina ? , ., ., looking? yes, the weather not lookina looking? yes, the weather not looking too — looking? yes, the weather not looking too bad _ looking? yes, the weather not looking too bad in _ looking? yes, the weather not looking too bad in harrogate l looking too bad in harrogate tomorrow and many of us will see sunshine through the weekend. things will be warming up over the next couple of days. today sunny spells developing and showers. we have the recipe for rainbows in northern ireland. sunny spells and cloud around. turning fresher because we have a cold front pushing eastwards clearing below cloud and humidity overnight. cloud clearing from the south—east of england and then sunny spells and blustery showers. the bulk of the showers in scotland and northern ireland and perhaps the northern ireland and perhaps the north west of england. temperature

named after the show and can go there and see it. there it is. the famous cobbles just over the way in salford quays. the coronation street set. and who will we find there? you look like someone waiting for the pub to open. i thought i looked like a dramatic character about to deliver a devastating line. this is one of britain's most famous, most iconic tv streets. and if these cobbles could talk, imagine the stories they could talk, imagine the stories they could tell. this place has had its fair share of births, deaths, marriages, divorces, scandals, even tram crashes. you might be forgiven for thinking why would you want to come here never knowing what could happen? people are increasingly

drawn to it. it is a popular place for tv set tours. here, they about 1000 visitors a day. an increase on last year. up 14%. people are not just travelling from nearby but all the world. coronation street is watched globally so people coming from finland, canada, new zealand as part of a trend called not jetsetting but setjetting. around a third of people coming to the uk say they are drawn by their favourite shows and wanting to see where they are filmed. it adds up in one year something like £892 million to the uk economy. what is the appeal of doing these tours? ijoined one to find out. emmerdale theme. you could well be forgiven for thinking you're looking at the newest addition to the cast of emmerdale. i'm not, but i am here on the set

where they film the show and i've come to find out about set tours, like this one happening today, and the rise in popularity of uk days out. now a little secret for you. we have people travel from around the world to come here. you know, i do these tours every weekend. we have people from new zealand, south africa, canada. they fly in even from the caribbean to spend time here. yorkshire's a very, very special place. well, we're from kaikoura in new zealand and we came here especially for the emmerdale tour. it was really high on our priority of things to do when we came here. really keen. you must be big fans of the show, then? yeah, we are. i started first and brought him in and now he loves it, as well. we watch it together every night. huge fans. this, it was bought as a christmas present from one of our sons. i i was really lookingj forward to doing it. tried to choose a nice day - and we seem to have done that. yeah, i've watched it from since i probably the late '70s, early '80s. we love emmerdale. don't miss an episode. yeah. and we're cousins and we usually try and treat ourselves

to a full day out somewhere. and this was one of the ideas. and i kept saying i've never been, it's on my bucket list, we've got to do it. people who are coming to the uk to come on holiday that might usually spend most of their time in london, at london—based attractions, and coming up to, you know, leeds and manchester to visit emmerdale and coronation street is bringing that tourism further north. spending time in our hotels, our restaurants and our bars and enjoying the beautiful countryside and the other things to see and do in the north of england. part of the appeal of tours like this one is people having the chance to take photos outside the iconic locations from their favourite shows, and the same is true of other film and tv sets, as well, which are also proving popular. the bbc series peaky blinders, although set in birmingham, is filmed across the north west of england, with tours focusing on the liverpool locations. meanwhile, fans of game of thrones are drawn to belfast for the official studio tour of the hbo hit.

whether fantasy, fiction or farm, it seems viewers are increasingly keen to not only watch but step in to their favourite shows. i have been checking out the deals on offer in here. 5.99 for a meal deal. inflation has not quite hit weather field. deal. inflation has not quite hit weatherfield. i am deal. inflation has not quite hit weather field. i am with one of the tour guides and operations manager. what are the iconic sites that prove most popular? safe what are the iconic sites that prove most popular?— most popular? safe to say all sites around weatherfield _ most popular? safe to say all sites around weatherfield are _ most popular? safe to say all sites around weatherfield are popular. | most popular? safe to say all sites i around weatherfield are popular. we are in the shopping district in weatherfield. behind me we have primadonna, which is owned by dev. it saw the death of kylie platt in 2016. and we have roy's rolls. we have nina and alex working in there.
