they had been provoked by anti—muslim insults in leeds before punching a group of men — the judge said that was no excuse. more sentences are expected to be handed down next week. 0ur reporter katie barnfield has been to bolton to see how communities affected by the violence have tried to move on. nearly a week on from the violence that gripped bolton, the town is still feeling the impact. several people have now been arrested after tiles, bottles and fireworks were thrown between two groups of rival protesters. some business owners say it has left people frightened to come here. mr; it has left people frightened to come here-— it has left people frightened to come here. �* ,., , come here. my customer is scared, the don't come here. my customer is scared, they don't come. — come here. my customer is scared, they don't come, and _ come here. my customer is scared, they don't come, and we _ come here. my customer is scared, they don't come, and we have - come here. my customer is scared, they don't come, and we have a - come here. my customer is scared, l they don't come, and we have a very bad situation, still. he they don't come, and we have a very bad situation, still.— bad situation, still. he says the takinus bad situation, still. he says the takings of _ bad situation, still. he says the takings of his _ bad situation, still. he says the takings of his shoe _ bad situation, still. he says the takings of his shoe shop - bad situation, still. he says the takings of his shoe shop are - bad situation, still. he says the i takings of his shoe shop are down 80% over the past week. haifa takings of his shoe shop are down 8096 over the past week.- takings of his shoe shop are down 8096 over the past week. how can i -a m 8096 over the past week. how can i pay my rent — 8096 over the past week. how can i pay my rent and — 8096 over the past week. how can i pay my rent and rates _ 8096 over the past week. how can i pay my rent and rates and - 8096 over the past week. how can i j pay my rent and rates and business and everything. it is not i feel personally or he'd kill me or

6:34 am
out on social media that anyone who comes to protest against our mosque, you will be our guests and we will prepare for you —— prepared food for you and we reach out and lots of beautiful genuine relationships were built on that date where later this evening we have an event in the mosque, an opendoor event where people can come in and ask us the tough questions, what they want to ask, and we have promised them honest answers and that is all on the back of the protests. itruihat the back of the protests. what ha--ened the back of the protests. what happened as _ the back of the protests. what happened as well _ the back of the protests. what happened as well as _ the back of the protests. what happened as well as there - the back of the protests. what happened as well as there were two or three hours of screaming, shouting, abuse, about 50 people outside? ., , ., , , outside? yeah, the protesters were about 50 people — outside? yeah, the protesters were about 50 people and _ outside? yeah, the protesters were about 50 people and about - outside? yeah, the protesters were about 50 people and about 500 - outside? yeah, the protesters were | about 50 people and about 500 were supporting the mosque. and they were from all walks of life. band supporting the mosque. and they were from all walks of life.— from all walks of life. and so you had to listen _ from all walks of life. and so you had to listen to _ from all walks of life. and so you had to listen to that _ from all walks of life. and so you had to listen to that and - from all walks of life. and so you had to listen to that and you - from all walks of life. and so you had to listen to that and you are | had to listen to that and you are given the go—ahead by police to go out. so the kind of questions, we will come to that in a moment, because there is a very contrasting picture i think in terms of how that potential... potential bad situation turned out. , , ., potential... potential bad situation turned out-—

6:40 am
and tonight is a massive night of olympics, but it is the penultimate day and team gb in the medals table, the top european nation. but for now we will reflect on a big moment at these games for team gb and a certain katarina johnson—thompson. after 3 previous olympic games ended in heartbreak, finally there was a silver lining, for katarina johnson—thompson who has that olympic medal now to add to her world titles. she gave everything in the final event, the 800 metres, to snatch the gold, from the history making nafi thiam, butjust couldn't finish far enough ahead of the belgian, and was more than happpy to win silver. there was a time whenjohnson—thompson didn't know if she'd compete again in the sport, and so the relief was overwhelming. i can't even describe the words that this weekend has taken. i am just so relieved, i'm so happy, i am so, happy that i have an olympic medal to add to my collection, is the only
6:41 am
one i didn't have. it has been so hard to get to this point, getting back to this point, so i am just so, so relieved. elsewhere the algerian boxer, imane khelif, won an olympic women's boxing gold a year after being disqualified from the world championships for reportedly failing a gender eligibility test. after the controversy that has overshadowed the boxing events in paris, khelif beat china's world champion yang liu by a unanimous points decision to win the welterweight division. khelif said it was dream come true, and that she was a strong woman. the new football league season is under way, with the first games last night and it was a confident start by blackburn rovers against newly promoted derby in the championship. last season's top scorer, sammy szmodics, who has been linked with a move away, started on the bench, but came on to get rovers' third goal in a 4—2 win. and how about this for a cheeky finish — sheffield united, who were relegated from the premier league, enjoyed a first win since february, gus harmer securing a 2—0 win at preston north end. performance of the night was in the scottish championship,
6:42 am
as ayr united put 5 past airdrieonians. scott brown's side look in sumptuous form so far this season, and a brace from both jay henderson and anton dowds laid the foundations for this big win. finally, rap star and olympics superfan snoop dogg has been popping up all over paris. he's carried the olympic torch, donned riding gear to attend the equestrian events, and yesterday he was drafted in to appear before the inaugural breakdancing event. here's snoop with the wooden staff, known as a brigadier, which has become one of the icons of the paris games. it's struck against the ground three times before every event to celebrate the beginning of the competition. the braking was fantastic as well. i know you enjoyed it as well. it is a really good addition to the games. i'm not sure i will try it. h0. really good addition to the games. i'm not sure i will try it.— i'm not sure i will try it. no, 'ust en'o i'm not sure i will try it. no, 'ust enjoy watching i i'm not sure i will try it. no, 'ust enjoy watching them. i

6:45 am
sunshine around setting the scene for the weekend. it will be turning really quite warm for some of us especially across central and eastern areas of england and towards the south and very humid as well. already quite a muggy start of the day but we're not there yet in terms of heat. cloud thickening for the day, particularly for irish seacoast with patches of rain. a slice of sunshine steel for the east. some of the best of the sunshine across northern ireland, northern england, southern and eastern areas of scotland as well. further north and west scattered showers. went lighter elsewhere than we saw yesterday. temperatures 18— 25 celsius generally. turning warmer on sunday. high pressure establishing itself which means lots of dry and settled conditions. mrand which means lots of dry and settled conditions. mr and vowed to start.
6:46 am
it should all be gone by the afternoon and plenty of sunshine across the board. it will be feeling rather human and we will see temperatures peaking higher. maybe the high 20s towards the south and the high 20s towards the south and the east. a muggy stinky night to follow into monday. it could be the warmest day of the year so far. some could get 35 celsius. now it's time for click. let me take you up.
6:47 am
up into the air. up above the clouds. above the weather. above all the aircraft. this is the stratosphere. a place yet to be conquered by humankind. up here the air is thin and calm. and it is here that you'll find the zephyr. this is a strange beast, and the fact that it flies this high is the least strange thing about it. see, it only travels at 40mph. it only weighs 75kg. it's launched by hand. it's completely solar powered. and in theory, it may be able to stay up here for months. i was last at zephyr�*s base in farnborough in the uk in 2018, when it had just
6:48 am
stayed aloft for very nearly 26 days. since then it's done 64. so, this is how it works. during the day, the sun hits the solar panels, which charge the batteries and power the propellers, and the plane climbs to 75,000ft. when the sun goes down, the batteries completely take over. the propellers do slow down and the plane does lose altitude. the trick, though, is to make sure you're still above 60,000ft by the time the sun comes up the next morning, and the process can start again. so will the entire wing be covered with solar cells? every single square centimetre, as much as you can, is solar...? actually, the solar array that we use now typically is so efficient that we don't tend to need to do complete coverage. really? yeah, we can actually recharge the batteries most normal days by lunchtime. spencer laughs wow!
6:49 am
in theory, is it possible to stay up forever in this? well, i think eventually we'll get as close as we can to that. at the moment, our limitation is the number of cycles the batteries can cope with. so a cycle is a day. so a full charge and then a full discharge. that's one cycle. and we're targeting six months in the stratosphere at a time. and that's in line with the battery performance that we see coming through. everything about zephyr has been fine tuned. every gram counts, every unit of battery density. the precise curve of those wings. so, look, i get it. i get that this plane can stay up in the air almost indefinitely. you only have to look at it to understand that it's something pretty special. the main question i have is why? why would you want this kind of craft? who would want this
6:50 am
kind of craft? in the 20 years since the idea was first conceived, it's almost like this has been a solution looking for a problem. would it carry cameras? could it be military? reconnaissance? since airbus spun off the new start—up company aalto in 2023, it's now being pitched for earth observation and as a flying base station for mobile phones. from the stratosphere, at 60 or 70,000ft, we can talk directly to a standard mobile phone, so the aircraft will function exactly like the cell tower that you have today. but it's high up. and because it's so high, so much higher up than the regular cell tower, it can cover the equivalent of about 200 base stations on the ground. so of course, that replaces notjust the, you know, the equipment on the tower, but it replaces the whole tower.
6:51 am
that's the steel, that's the backhaul, the fibre, the microwave. very importantly, the power, the electricity or the diesel that runs the tower, and in many cases in remote and rural areas, that's the most expensive part of running a terrestrial tower. an uplink antenna would connect the mobile network to zephyr, and then zephyr could serve an area of 7,500 square kilometres, in theory for months at a time. this is a real proposition. or, in the event of, say, a natural disaster, a plane could be flown to an area that had suddenly become cut off from the grid. mobile operators have something called cell on wheels, cow, which is usually a truck that has some equipment. we have a cell on wings, a flying cow, which is flying cell on wings. these cows...er, planes will fly autonomously. there are no joysticks involved. the pilots send the plane's coordinates and flight plans, but they're mainly interested in how much energy
6:52 am
it's using and making adjustments to keep its batteries fully charged. so this is the ground and this is 80,000ft. and all this colourful stuff, that's wind. you don't want to be in that. but if you can keep the zephyr above it from about 60,000ft and up, it's pretty plain sailing. the problem is, you've got to get to 60,000ft in the first place, something that can take ten hours from that weird hand launch ta ke—off. trying to get it up into the air is probably the trickiest point. there's a lot more weather down on the surface than there is up in the stratosphere, so just trying to get the right conditions to get through that weather, that's probably the hardest part. we've spent a lot of time and effort studying meteorology in the tropopause, so that we can understand how to transit through it as safely as possible with this aircraft. and we've now done a global study of where all the weather
6:53 am
is and all the different weather conditions around the world, and we've found some of the best locations in the world to start launching and landing these from regularly. so where the air is nice and clear, all the way up... all the way through. yeah _ and once we're in the stratosphere, we're away. whatever the final use for these so—called high altitude platform stations — haps — there does seem to be both the appetite and now the technology to fly high and stay high. is this one of the most satisfying bits of tech to watch? but this 3d printer isn'tjust pleasing on the eye. the walls it's creating have the potential to change our impact on the planet.
6:54 am
so one of the big challenges of our city, miami, and all coastal cities, is rising sea levels and flooding. and traditionally, cities have addressed this by building sea walls, which you see all around us, even here. and the problem with traditional sea walls is that they destroy marine habitats. traditional sea walls leach chemicals and, very simply, they're flat. so when you have a flat sea wall, the organisms that live by the coast, they can't attach to this flat surface. so they migrate. and they were the ones who were eating all the toxins in the water. so once the sea life and the organisms migrate, no—one's there to eat the toxins. and the quality of water goes down 50% within one year of installation. the challenge for kind designs was coming up with something that was economical for communities, but will also enhance the underwater ecosystem, and they think they've got it.
6:55 am
these are the walls that you create. yes. talk us through some of the features. 0k. so, there's three really important features, why these make these walls so great for marine life attachment. 0ne, you have these little micro textures on the wall. and so, if you imagine a rock climber, if they're trying to climb on a flat wall, it's impossible, right? so, same for sea life attachment. then just the nature of the 3d printing process. you have all of these layers on the wall. so these layers are great actually for coral growth. and then lastly, you're not just having your kind of bottom of the food chain on these walls, but because of these caves, you get so much more biodiversity. so every species, their number one thing is that they want to survive, which makes sense. us too. yeah. us included. and so with these caves, as you can see, they're really deep. i can fit my whole arm in here. so that's where your
6:56 am
larger organisms can hide from predators. it takes just under one hour for a wall panel to appear before us — much quicker than traditional moulding and setting of concrete. but this way of manufacturing also brings design flexibility. we have the highest resolution 3d printer in the world, so our layers are one inch thick, which allows us to create, like, this design or anything else. and so since we're just producing in florida right now, we're keeping this design. but as we expand nationally and globally, we can alter our design to make it fit the coastal habitat in any region of the world. you're printing with concrete, which is still one of the most un—environmentally friendly materials there is. are you looking at other materials, or is concrete the only answer here? we are using concrete, one, because concrete sea walls are mandated in many areas. you can use, like, vinyl sea walls, basically plastic sea walls.
6:57 am
the problem with them is microplastics are leaching in the water. so also a problem. and two, you can only use them in areas that are very low impact, like a river in orlando or lakes. the difference between traditional concrete and ours is ours is nontoxic, so it doesn't leach. there's no chlorides, there's no metals, and it's also mixed at a 30% lower temperature than traditional concrete, further decreasing the carbon footprint. the start—up are installing their first walls in florida now. studying their impact will be vital in assessing if they make a positive difference and in what direction the designs will go next. on that note, we will bring that short version of the programme to a close. thank you for watching and we will see you soon.

7:05 am
moment we are seeing the kremlin declare the counterterrorism measures, as they call them, which give powers to officials to search vehicles, to order mass evacuations and control the movement of people. i think it is reflective of ukraine's objective with this major cross—border offensive we saw this week that russia is having to pause so many —— pour so many of its resources to do is to try and contain this ukrainian attack and they have sees a significant amount of territory, it looks like they have advanced up to ten kilometres in but that nuclear power plant you mentioned is in the kursk region, and while it is not thought the ukrainians will try and push that far end, the international atomic energy watchdog has called for restraint on both sides. it has been a week where things have certainly been shaken up in this continued invasion. , . . . been shaken up in this continued invasion. . . , been shaken up in this continued invasion. , ., , . invasion. james, thanks very much for keeping — invasion. james, thanks very much for keeping us _ invasion. james, thanks very much for keeping us up-to-date - invasion. james, thanks very much for keeping us up-to-date on i invasion. james, thanks very much

7:07 am
morning prayer at the time. it is said that a fire subsequently worked out with emergency workers scrambling to get people out of the building. for its part israel has confirmed the strike took place but they say, the israeli military say this was in effect a legitimate target, that there was a hamas command centre embedded in the building. it is the second strike on a gaza school in as many days and in fact israel has repeatedly targeted schools in gaza in the last week or so. each time they insist that they were targeting hamas bases, and each time they insist that through the use of precision missiles and intelligence they are doing their best to mitigate the loss of civilian life.— best to mitigate the loss of civilian life. , ., , civilian life. jenny, thanks very much. three days of mourning will take place in brazil after a plane crashed, killing all 61 people on board. the aircraft was en route to sao paulo when it came down in a residential area, around 50 miles short of its destination.

her first olympic medal. 0ur sports correspondent patrick gearey reports. somewhere in between the elation and exhaustion, katarina johnson—thompson realised finally she was an olympic silver—medallist. she lay just a few seconds from gold, but a world away from the pain of previous games. i'm just so relieved, i'm so happy, i'm so, so happy that i've got an olympic medal to add to my collection, it's the only one i didn't have. it's been so hard getting to this point, getting back to this point, so i am so relieved. injuries have robbed her of these memories before, but this time her body wouldn't buckle. after the long jump and a season's bestjavelin throw, she knew she would need to beat belgium's nafi thiam by more than eight seconds in the final event, the 800 metres. kjt threw everything at trying to run away from the greatest heptathlete of her generation.
7:12 am
commentator: this is a great run | from katarina johnson-thompson, | it stops for her about 2.045. that was the fastest she had ever run it, but thiam was just too close behind. nafi thiam will take the gold medal, she will take on her third successive heptathlon gold. at one point katarina johnson—thompson didn't know if she would ever compete again. now her games has ended, if not quite in victory, then in her own personal glory. gold was within reach for the women's 4 x 100m relay team as well, and they were hurtling towards it the way dina asher—smith started. but in the rain, the changeovers were messy. fortunately the last leg was neater. it will be sha'carri richardson, usa win it, great britain the silver medal. that relay silver was followed a few minutes later by a bronze from the men, including zharnel hughes who missed the 200 metres through injury.

7:20 am
temperatures generally 18— 25 celsius. as we had through tonight, i will show you the big picture because high pressure starts to build, keeping us dry and settled. low pressure approaching from west, not making many in rows but it will turn the wind so warming up tomorrow with plenty of sunshine around. a bit of cloud to start the day and maybe see fog but that should disappear as we head into the afternoon and it will be feeling warmer tomorrow across the board in all of that sunshine. the high 20s perhaps south and eastern areas of england. leading to a muggy, sticky feeling night and the peak of the heat will be on monday. this warm area from southern europe, where it has been very hot. perhaps record—breaking temperatures in bordeaux, in france. it will not be sunny everywhere. instead, heavy

anyone or if you have an ambition to bump into someone, tell me, tell me the people you have met and people you are seeking out to say hi to? being in the olympic village has been an absolutely incredible experience. for example, even being in and around team gb house, so many incredible athletes around. always spot on the tv and everyone supportive of each other. like you say, walking around the dining room and seeing now liles, it is a real experience being here and being competing and to get the gold as well. —— noah lyles. this experience hasjust well. —— noah lyles. this experience has just been life changing and such a great one. iwho hasjust been life changing and such a great one-— a great one. who would you tap up for a photograph — a great one. who would you tap up for a photograph or _ a great one. who would you tap up for a photograph or selvie - a great one. who would you tap up for a photograph or selvie or - a great one. who would you tap up for a photograph or selvie or have | a great one. who would you tap up| for a photograph or selvie or have a chat and pick their brains? weill, for a photograph or selvie or have a chat and pick their brains?- chat and pick their brains? well, i think one- -- _ chat and pick their brains? well, i think one... some _ chat and pick their brains? well, i think one... some of _ chat and pick their brains? well, i think one... some of the - chat and pick their brains? well, i think one... some of the track - chat and pick their brains? well, i |

7:32 am
hello, this is breakfast with naga munchetty and charlie stayt. let's go back now to the recent rioting and violent disorder in a number of english and northern irish towns and cities. since the unrest began almost two weeks ago, there have been more than 740 arrests, with more than 300 people charged in connection with the disorder. 118 people are now behind bars. yesterday, the first jail terms for encouraging unrest on social media were handed down to three men — tyler kay, richard williams and jordan parlour. 26—year—old kay was sentenced to three years and two months in prison for inciting racial hatred online. these counter—protesters also received sentences yesterday. sameer ali and adnan ghafoor said they had been provoked by anti—muslim insults in leeds before punching a group of men — the judge said that was no excuse.
7:33 am
more sentences are expected to be handed down next week. we're joined now by francis fitzgibbon kc, former chair of the criminal bar association. thank you very much for your time with us here, good morning to you. what is your reaction to how these cases have been dealt with, for example, in terms of the speed of prosecution, the speed of sentencing, and just the appearances in court as well? sentencing, and 'ust the appearances in court as well?— in court as well? good morning and thank ou in court as well? good morning and thank you for— in court as well? good morning and thank you for having _ in court as well? good morning and thank you for having me _ in court as well? good morning and thank you for having me on - in court as well? good morning and thank you for having me on the i thank you for having me on the programme. the speed with which the entire criminaljustice system has reacted has been extraordinary. you have to remember that there is currently a backlog of i think 76,000 cases waiting to get on in the crown court at least, so they have had to push lots of other cases out of the way to make room for the
7:34 am
emergency that the riots have generated. in order to show people that this kind of behaviour will be dealt with very, very swiftly and very firmly. it is a tribute to all those concerned in the system from police to prosecutors, to advocates, to the court staff and probation officers that they have been able to prioritise these cases very much against the odds, i think, because the system in general, as your viewers will probably know, is massively overcapacity and has been starved of resources for a very long time. ., ., ,., . , starved of resources for a very long time. ., ., . , , time. how have the resources been able to be stretched _ time. how have the resources been able to be stretched for _ time. how have the resources been able to be stretched for this? i time. how have the resources been able to be stretched for this? as i able to be stretched for this? as far as able to be stretched for this? is far as the courts able to be stretched for this? 23 far as the courts are concerned, they will have had to move other cases out of the way to make room for these ones. so when they come back, one doesn't know, but they will have to join the queue at some stage. but essentially everyone has just gone that extra mile to make sure that these cases are dealt with
7:35 am
at maximum speed. i sure that these cases are dealt with at maximum speed.— sure that these cases are dealt with at maximum speed. i suppose these other ones where _ at maximum speed. i suppose these other ones where people _ at maximum speed. i suppose these other ones where people pleaded i other ones where people pleaded guilty. so that makes it quicker. that's right. those are the ones that really have been fast tracked. i think people who are fighting their cases will have to wait, many of them have found themselves remanded in custody, so they are getting there first, or a taste of prison as a result of what they have been up to or what they have been charged with doing i should say, in the course of these disturbances. courts currently listing cases in 2026, even in 2027. so there is no telling when some of these people will be on trial, and i imagine that they will want to again bump them up they will want to again bump them up the list for the same reasons that they have been dealing with the guilty pleas very quickly.- they have been dealing with the guilty pleas very quickly. where do ou sit on guilty pleas very quickly. where do you sit on this? _ guilty pleas very quickly. where do you sit on this? you _ guilty pleas very quickly. where do you sit on this? you will _ guilty pleas very quickly. where do you sit on this? you will know- guilty pleas very quickly. where do you sit on this? you will know and | you sit on this? you will know and no doubt as many of your colleagues
7:36 am
have been frustrated by seeing cases delayed for months, years in terms of getting to court, i am thinking, we often speak about how long it takes for rape convictions to get through the rape trial to happen. —— for rape trials to happen. how do you balance looking at the urgency that has been made clear about setting an example, and a zero tolerance approach to violence and thuggery, to actually people who are still waiting for justice thuggery, to actually people who are still waiting forjustice to be served? still waiting for 'ustice to be served? ., ., , ., 4' still waiting for 'ustice to be served? ., ., , ., ,, ., served? no-one should think that the usual slow pace _ served? no-one should think that the usual slow pace of _ served? no-one should think that the usual slow pace of the _ served? no-one should think that the usual slow pace of the process - served? no-one should think that the usual slow pace of the process is i usual slow pace of the process is due to idleness by anybody concerned. as i say, the system is working out or overcapacity at present, and this is a one—off event, being able to do things this quickly. if they wanted to speed the
7:37 am
whole system up, it would require a massive amount of investment in people and resources. for example, the last government sold off i think about half of the court buildings in the country, so at the very start of the country, so at the very start of the process there is a squeeze on the process there is a squeeze on the amount of room available for cases to be heard. i think police numbers are now going up again, but a lot of people have left the profession of criminal law for one reason or another, partly because of burnout, because the workload has been so high, and partly because the fees haven't really kept up with cost of living and lots of parts of the country. so there are all sorts of pressures that remain and will continue to remain, unless somebody realises that if you wantjustice to be done quickly and efficiently, you got to put resources into it.
7:38 am
francis fitzgibbon kc, former chair of the criminal bar association. thank you for your time with us on bbc breakfast. the time now is 7.38. let's talk about the olympics. what a delight toby is. you have met many olympians over the years, and it is a delight, isn't it. ., ., , ., isn't it. you love his reaction when he finally realised, _ isn't it. you love his reaction when he finally realised, because the i he finally realised, because the other competitor had fallen off, that he had got the gold. �*i’b other competitor had fallen off, that he had got the gold. 19 years old! and it is— that he had got the gold. 19 years old! and it is a _ that he had got the gold. 19 years old! and it is a relatively - that he had got the gold. 19 years old! and it is a relatively new- old! and it is a relatively new sort, old! and it is a relatively new sport. of— old! and it is a relatively new sport, of climbing. _ old! and it is a relatively new sport, of climbing. if - old! and it is a relatively new sport, of climbing. if you i old! and it is a relatively new sport, of climbing. if you had old! and it is a relatively new. sport, of climbing. if you had a wish at the start of the olympics that a certain katarina johnson—thompson, after all her heartbreak, would finally get a medal. i did a highjump day with her. just then, i saw the drive, the
7:39 am
ambition, so much ahead of her and this is now towards the end of her journey, finally she has got at olympic medal after all she has been through. after 3 previous olympic games ended in heartbreak, finally there was a silver lining for katarina johnson—thompson, who has that elusive olympic medal now to add to her world titles. she gave everything in the final event, the 800 metres, to snatch the gold from the history making nafi thiam, butjust couldn't finish far enough ahead of the belgian and was more than happpy to win silver. there was a time whenjohnson—thompson didn't know if she'd compete again in the sport, and so the relief was overwhelming. i can't even describe the words that this weekend has taken. i am just so relieved, i'm so happy, i am so, so happy that i have an olympic medal to add to my collection, it was the only one i didn't have. it has been so hard to get to this point, getting back to this point, so i am just so, so relieved.
7:40 am
elsewhere, the algerian boxer, imane khelif, won an olympic women's boxing gold, a year after being disqualified from the world championships for reportedly failing a gender eligibility test. after the controversy that has overshadowed the boxing events in paris, khelif beat china's world champion yang liu, by a unanimous points decision to win the welterweight division. khelif said it was dream come true, and that she was a strong woman. now onto football and, lee carsley has been appointed the interim england manager ahead of next month's nations league games, as the search for gareth southgate's permanent successor continues. the 50—year—old has stepped up from his role as england under—21 head coach, to replace southgate who resigned two days after losing the euros final to spain last month. carsley led england under—215 to victory in the final of the european championship last season, beating spain in the final. pep guardiola is a name linked with the permanent england job when his contract with
7:41 am
manchester city ends. ahead of their game with manchester united later in the community shield, he had this to say about the speculation. i have to decide what i want to do with my life. do i want to continue here, i want to take a break, i want to be on the national team or not. but i am here, you have to match the competition, the energy and rise again. so i am excited for the season. the new football league season is underway, with the first games last night and it was a confident start by blackburn rovers against newly promoted derby in the championship. last season's top scorer, sammy szmodics, who has been linked with a move away, started on the bench but came on to get rovers' third goal in a li—2 win. and how about this for a cheeky finish — sheffield united, who were relegated from the premier league, enjoyed a first win since february, gus harmer securing a 2—0 win at preston north end.
7:42 am
performance of the night was in the scottish championship, as ayr united put 5 past airdrieonians. scott brown's side look in sumptuous form so far this season, and a brace from both jay henderson and anton dowds laid the foundations for this big win. finally rap star and olympics super fan snoop dog has been popping up all over paris. he's carried the olympic torch, donned riding gear to attend the equestrian events, and yesterday he was drafted in to appear before the inaugral, breakdancing event. here's snoop with the wooden staff, known as a brigadier, which has become one of the icons of the paris games. it's struck against the ground three times before every event to celebrate the beginning of the competition. breakdancing brea kdancing looks like breakdancing looks like a really good addition to the olympics as well. he did that with quite a bit of style.

if you'd describe yourself as a chocaholic, this may be of interest. you might want to keep an eye on the cost of your favourite treat. soaring cocoa prices are hitting manufacturers, which means some are using alternative ingredients to keep costs down — but as our reporter andrew turner's been finding out, chocolate on the cheap may leave a nasty taste in your mouth. would you rather pay more or eat less? ., , ., . ., ., would you rather pay more or eat less? ., ,.,. ., ., less? that is a chocolate bar today. on the current _ less? that is a chocolate bar today. on the current coco _ less? that is a chocolate bar today. on the current coco prices, - less? that is a chocolate bar today. on the current coco prices, that i on the current coco prices, that would be your chocolate bar tomorrow. if you were to take all that price increase we are seeing. the global price of cocoa has soared, heading chocolate makers everywhere. find soared, heading chocolate makers everywhere-— everywhere. and although it has fallen since _ everywhere. and although it has fallen since april _ everywhere. and although it has fallen since april it _ everywhere. and although it has fallen since april it is _ everywhere. and although it has fallen since april it is still- fallen since april it is still heading production costs. my retail should not move, i am taking a little bit of weight out, i am looking hike and take cost out of my business and i am absorbing the cost as well. cutting the cocoa content
