from one of their new signings. and good morning. the weekend ahead is looking fine, plenty of dry weather, sunny spells for many of us as well. they will bring you the full forecast shortly. good morning. it's saturday, the 17th of august, our main story. the world health organization is asking countries with mpox vaccine stockpiles to donate them to nations with ongoing outbreaks. a wave of infections has killed hundreds of people in the democratic republic of congo as a highly contagious variant of the virus spreads. it comes as a company which manufactures one of the vaccines says it needs orders to be placed quickly so it can meet demand. our reporter leigh milner has the story. in the democratic republic of the congo, hospitals like this one are filling up with patients who have mpox.
6:02 am
originally known as monkey pox, the disease can be passed on by close physical contact with anyone with the infection. it causes flu—like symptoms and blisters, which is usually clear up into or three weeks. but in a small proportion of cases, it can prove fatal. especially in vulnerable children. translation: we have been shown images on the phone and on tv - are people who are suffering from the same illness. i am scared and so worried. so far the mpox outbreak centred on the democratic republic of congo as lead to over 16,000 cases and over 500 deaths this year. there is particular concern about a particular type of the virus known as clade 1b which appears to be more virulent and infection than the one because of public health efficiency two years ago. it is spreading much more rapidly. we have seen other spreads. that is one issue.
6:03 am
it does have quite a high case fatality rate at the moment. currently there are no cases of the new clade ib variant of mpox confirmed in the uk, but experts say cases can spread if international action is not taken. health officials are urging countries with mpox vaccine stockpiles to donate them to countries with ongoing outbreaks. there is a physical shortage of testing, treatment and vaccines on the continent. the shortages are hampering the ability to contain the outbreak. we are calling for urgent international support to increase access to vaccine stocks and treatment options and to scale up testing and alert investigation. one of two mpox vaccines recommended by the world health organization says orders need to be placed quickly so we can meet demand.

agree, despite whatever disparities there are throughout the world, no—one contests the fact that we want to keep our children safe. and prince harry said he was worried about how quickly false information spread on the internet. for as long as people are allowed to spread lies, to abuse and to harass without consequence, then social cohesion is, as we know it, is completely broken down. journalists weren't allowed to any of the events that the couple did on the second day of their visit to colombia. they brought their own camera team which they said was to ensure that events were represented accurately. but what that means is all that we can see of the events they have done is what they want us to see, much like a lot of the events that members of the royal family do. their team shared these images with us of their visit in the afternoon. they met colombia's invictus games team, the sports competition prince harry founded. it is for wounded, sick, or injured soldiers,

6:12 am
but all in all it's looking largely fine stop one or two showers this morning across northern ireland into central eastern areas of scotland. we may encounter the odd shower late in parts of northern england and across wales, but really for most it's dry so we'll see an area of clouds les albanese was, perhaps a cloud's les albanese was, perhaps a bit cloudy at times, but plenty of dry and bright weather, certainly the best of the sunshine down to the southeast, temperatures 23 or 2a degrees. through this evening and tonight we will see some varying cloud, again one or two showers coming across the north and the west of scotland. for most dry and with clear skies again it could turn a little bit fresh as we go into sunday morning. those nights of course are getting longer now, temperatures back down to single figures in the countryside. throughout sunday is more the same really, that area of high is still situated to the south and that's influencing things really. as you can see again, just a few showers coming across western scotland where it will be a bit breezy for a time.
6:13 am
elsewhere dry with some sunny spells and top temperatures around about 15 degrees in stornaway, 2425 in the southeast. as we go through to next week it will be quite changeable actually. it will be dry with sunny spells for many of us but tending quite breezy with some rain because that area of high pressure will start to drift away to the east and we start to open the door up to these areas of low pressure, areas of rain moving on from the atlantic. as we see as we go through monday we will see that reinforcing its way through into northern ireland into western scotland, eventually western areas of england and wales. the breeze picks up here as well as we go through the day. on easter monday, saying largely dry, there will be some sunshine at least on monday afternoon across those eastern areas. temperatures here in the southeast again getting up into 24- 25 the southeast again getting up into 24— 25 celsius, about 17— 18 degrees. really for the rest of the we will see further spells of rain coming in, during tuesday that ran well push its way eastward so some
6:14 am
rain at times. it does tend to clear away and there will be some sunny spells developing for many parts on tuesday afternoon, maximum temperatures 16—24 celsius, during the rest of the week again a little bit changeable, damages about the average really for the time of year and with that there will be some sunny spells but also some spells of rain from time to time. simon, thanks very much. this november marks 50 years since the birmingham pub bombings which took the lives of 21 people and injured more than 200 others. it's been described as the worst unsolved terrorist attack on the british mainland. and now campaigners are hoping the city will come together for a minute's silence to remember the victims. our reporter rebecca wood has the story. forjulie hamilton, whose sister maxime was killed in the bombings, this is a really important part of the city. it captures all of the

apparently in the premier league last season there were more goals than ever before. lots of goals. the question was rather stupidly asked if there were too many goals in the premier league last season. because what i was saying was that lots of goals men sometimes bad defending, and is that fun to watch? or do we want to see good attacking and good defending. last night you are thinking, 86 minutes in, i could do with a few more goals, and it came in the 87th minute, with manchester united beating fulham. a wing start for them at old trafford. a new signing scored a late goal to rescue a big team potentially underwhelming start. the story—lines have only just begun as patrick gearey reports. finishing just how he would want to

premier league match after replacing jurgen klopp in the summer. no signings yet under slot, but he insists he's happy with his squad. we are always talking here about transfers, but it is also very positive that we kept our players. they are in a good place at the moment. i have said many times alreadyjurgen klopp left them in a good base and we're trying to build there. last season was also a season where they could win a trophy with this team, so hoping and aiming for the same, of course, this season. it won't be easy because there are a lot of good and strong teams in the premier league. but we're looking forward the challenge. so week one in the premier league, but it's week two in the championship. 10 games taking place today, but it'll take a lot to beat what we saw last night. coventry got their first victory of the season and their winner came a lot later than the one at old trafford. twice they led. twice they were pegged
6:28 am
back by oxford. until the 96th minute when haji wright scored for a 3—2 victory. it wasn't only the premier league that started last night. the same happened in france. while in germany their season starts with the early rounds of the cup. and harry kane is already among the goals. bayern munich got four of them, kane providing the final one in a 4—0 win over second division side ulm. it was their first competitive match under new manager vincent kompany. the final tennis grand slam gets going a week on monday — but cameron norrie will play no part in it. he's still suffering with the forearm injury which also prevented him playing in the olympics. with andy murray's retirement, jack draper and dan evans are currently the only british men in the main draw in new york. and draper seems to be heading to flushing meadows in good form. having beaten stefanos tsitsipas in the second round of the cincinnati open. the british number one made it through to the quarter fnials with a three set win over felix auger—aliassime. but wimbledon champion carlos alcaraz is out having played what he called the worst match of his career. his second round match resumed last night after a rain delay. but he was beaten in three sets by 37—year—old gael monfils. alcaraz also saying afterwards

he couldn't control himself. yes, carlos, we agree. richard pyrah, who was sacked in 2021 amid the yorkshire racism scandal, has been named as the county's new women's head coach. pyrah was found to have used racist slurs by a cricket discipline commission panel in march last year, fined and banned from coaching for two weeks. pyrah — who won a claim of unfair dismissal against yorkshire in 2022 — had a 10 year career with the county. it could be a big weekend forjustin rose at golf�*s season—ending fedex championship. he'll start it just three shots off the lead. a second consecutive round of 66 has rose at 8 under par in memphis. scotland's bob macintyre is a shot further back, four off the lead, which is held jointly by japan's hideki matsuyama and american denny mccarthy. whilst at the women's scottish open, meghan khang and minjee lee lead the way on 8 under par. khang hit a 4 under par

round of 68 in troon, while lee went round in 69. england's charley hull is tied third, two shots back. so these pictures of carlos alcaraz rather dismembering his racket, it is nice to see that even the best players have bad days. he destroyed it. he is so smiley, _ players have bad days. he destroyed it. he is so smiley, usually. - players have bad days. he destroyed it. he is so smiley, usually. do - players have bad days. he destroyed it. he is so smiley, usually. do you | it. he is so smiley, usually. do you think hejust it. he is so smiley, usually. do you think he just absolutely loves and enjoys the game?— think he just absolutely loves and enjoys the game? en'oys the game? everybody can have a enjoys the game? everybody can have a bad da . enjoys the game? everybody can have a bad day- he — enjoys the game? everybody can have a bad day. he certainly _ enjoys the game? everybody can have a bad day. he certainly did. _ enjoys the game? everybody can have a bad day. he certainly did. it - a bad day. he certainly did. it isn't done. — a bad day. he certainly did. it isn't done, so _ a bad day. he certainly did. it isn't done, so let's _ a bad day. he certainly did. it isn't done, so let's not - a bad day. he certainly did. it i isn't done, so let's not predicted for the _ isn't done, so let's not predicted for the rest _ isn't done, so let's not predicted for the rest of the show.- isn't done, so let's not predicted for the rest of the show. thank you very much- — for the rest of the show. thank you very much. 6:30am _ for the rest of the show. thank you very much. 6:30am is— for the rest of the show. thank you very much. 6:30am is the - for the rest of the show. thank you very much. 6:30am is the time. i arcade game fans are preparing to compete in what's being described as the uk's only dedicated pinball event this weekend in daventry. pinfest uk will see some of the best compete in the three day tournament, including one of the regional champions, nathan garwood. our reporter laura foster has been to meet him. a warning, her report

now it's time for this cultural life. boy george, one of the most recognisable people in british music. a singer and songwriter, he shot to global pop fame in the 19805 as frontman with culture club. # do you really want to hurt me? known for his soulful vocals, pioneering androgynous style and bold opinions, across a 40—year career, boy george has topped the charts many times, both in culture club and as a solo artist. # i know all there is to know about the crying game. never far from the tabloid press, his ups and downs are well documented. but in recent years, he's been living a more stable life and once again enjoying his time in the spotlight. he's been a mentor on the voice, received an ivor novello lifetime achievement award and remains a hugely popular cultural figure. in this episode of this cultural life, the radio 4
6:34 am
programme, boy george reveals his formative influences and experiences and speaks candidly about the prison sentence that helped turn his life around. i knew i was never going to go back. i knew that i was going to rebuild my life when i came out and was going to change everything. you know, i definitely like who i am now and i'm very different to the person i was ten years ago, 20 years ago. take a seat. boy george, welcome to this cultural life. thank you. you were born george o'dowd in 1961 and you grew up in south london in a working class irish family.
6:35 am
tell me about family life. what was it like, growing up? well, i used to think that my family were the most insane family on the planet because we had, like, chickens, we had, like, dogs, you know, we were — we stood out. we were like the hillbillies of the road. but growing up, ijust thought we were the maddest bunch ever. did you feel irish growing up? very — i mean, my name is o'dowd. i grew up in the �*70s, with all the bombing and, you know, kids at school would be making comments and you were very aware of the fact that you were irish — 0. i used to get called �*o'loud'. laughs. george o'loud — that was my name at school. and what were your interests at school? in fact, what was your education like? my education was probably spoilt by my behaviour. i wasn't a particularly compliant kid because at home, my dad ruled the roost — you know, what my dad said went. so, the minute i left the house, no—one was going to tell me what to do, whether it was the church or,
6:36 am
you know, the police or the school. so, i had a bad attitude towards authority and i wore it proudly. and you say your dad ruled the roost at home. he was a tough dad? he was a builder — i mean, he wasn't one thing but he was definitely prone to, you know, explosions. so, he went from being totally calm to being totally angry and he was a gambler. so, if he gambled and won, it was heaven. if he gambled and lost, it wasn't so heavenly, and you know, my dad was also a brilliant man. he was handsome, he had beautiful handwriting, he could sing, he was super intelligent. and he boxed, as well... and he boxed, early on. but i think, you know... i think he felt frustrated, creatively, as a man. i think that, you know, what he did for a living wasn't enough, you know, because later on in his life, he was a reiki healer, he became very esoteric later on. but in the early days, it just wasn't allowed. he didn't really know
6:37 am
how to be a dad. he wasn't good at being a dad. you've talked about your mum a lot in the past and how you get a lot of your creativity from her. my mum was a great seamstress. she was just someone that could cook anything, make anything, tiling, wallpapering. my mum was just one of those people that nothing got in her way, except my dad. laughs. my dad got in her way. you know, if my mum put on a tight cardigan, she was having an affair. my mum was very stylish, beautiful clothes. but there were only very few occasions when my mum was really allowed to express who she was, and as a kid, i used to love seeing my mum in full make—up, you know, with her clothes, you know, these — she used to make these dresses with daisies and have matching shoes and, you know, ijust always loved her dressed up. and later on, when i started to be a bit of an exhibitionist, i think to start with, my mum was against it, and then, she thought, "no, he's doing what i can't do,"
6:38 am
so she kind of fully supported me and became a sort of collaborator, in a way. were you an outgoing kid? at what point in your childhood did you think you might want to perform for a living? i started, really, when i was a kid singing at the local old people's home. i used to go and do, like, roll out the barrel and my old man's a dustman, and things like that, with my girlfriends, and i wanted to be a singer, i wanted to sing, you know? i wanted to be like my heroes, you know? and i wanted to sing, and you know, every day, music was the thing that saved me, really, from everything. on this programme, boy george, i ask my guests to choose the most important influences and experiences that have inspired their own creativity, and your first choice is david bowie, and seeing ziggy stardust in 1973, that incredibly landmark tour, when you were — well, you would have been 11 years old, i guess? i wasjust coming up to my 12th birthday — my birthday is injune, so i'm always a bit younger than everyone, so... but that's incredibly young to have seen a bowie show.
6:39 am
yeah, i was very lucky. lewisham odeon was the place we went to see every band, and often, we'd break in and get in forfree — someone would open the stage door or someone, you know, would let you run in. but i couldn't risk that with bowie. it wasn't something you could risk, like, not getting in. so, i had a ticket. i had no bus fare to get there, no bus fare to get back. i bunked the bus to lewisham, and i walked back, singing bowie songs into an empty coke can on the way home. # so where were the spiders. # while the fly tried to break our balls? # just the beer light to guide us. # so we bitched about his fans. # and should we crush his sweet hands? what were your impressions of the gig itself? there was nothing like it — the lighting, the clothing, subjects...
6:40 am
the theatricality. ..you know, the songs. i mean, you know, as a kid, it felt like he was just totally talking to me. it felt like he totally got me, you know? "we're painting our faces and dressing in thoughts "from the skies" — it was like, i felt like, you know, he understood who i was and where i was and what i was going to be. that album, particularly — that album, when ziggy stardust came out, you know, the lyrics on that — "a cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest "and a queer threw up at the sight of that." you know, it's like, "queer"? who's saying that in a song? you know, it's something you got called in school. yeah. it wasn't something people sung about. so, it was just everything about him. and were you aware of bowie's sexuality — or the stories about his sexuality, at the time? because it was never clear, was it, at the time? well, i think all rock stars — mickjagger, you know, bowie, marc bolan — they were all a bit sort of blurring the sort of sexual boundaries, you know, because being rock and roll, you know, you didn't say what you were, did you? "what are you into?" "i don't know. "what am i into? "you tell me."
6:41 am
i think it was partly a sort of pose but it was also tapping in — if you think sort of homosexuality was only legalised in the late �*60s, so it was tapping into that new kind of awareness of, you know, different sexuality, and, you know, if you wanted to be cool at that point, you embraced what was edgy and dangerous, in a way, you know, and misunderstood. and did bowie help validate those feelings that you had at that time? 1,000%. i mean, people say he was straight but, you know, the thing is it doesn't matter whether you're straight or gay, it matters whether you take the time to experiment, to be brave. your next choice for this programme is meeting the club promoter, philip sallon, who was a real driving force behind the scene, which was centred around the blitz club in covent garden in london in the late 19705. when did you meet philip? i and my girlfriend laura went to a punk night at the lyceum and because it had been all over the press, they wouldn't let us
6:42 am
in with the ripped clothes. they said, "you can't come in with those clothes on". so, we were standing in the street, lost and forlorn, wondering what we were going to do with our lives. we were all dressed up with nowhere to go. so, this is what, 1976? about �*76, yeah. and we met this flamboyant guy who was walking up the road — not philip. someone else took us to bangs, which was a notorious gay club on the tottenham court road, and this guyjust liked the look of us, took us with him to the club and in that club was philip sallon, dancing on a podium, lipstick, and you know, just looking absolutely fabulous, and we targeted him. i was like, "i just want to be best friends", and i made my girlfriend follow him into the toilets to borrow his black eyeliner and that's how we became friends, and that was it. after that, he was a big part of my life. did you know what he did, what his reputation was? or you just liked the look of him? no, iasked him if he was gay and he said, "are you interested?" and i was like, "oh, no".
6:43 am
i was terrified because i wasn't out then. oh, right. i was still in the closet. i had a girlfriend. oh, when you say "girlfriend," i thought you meant a friend who was... no, my girlfriend was called laura. yeah, she was my girlfriend from school and she was gorgeous. so, i'd gone out with her to this club, and then, you know, sort of met philip and then, gradually sort of started to go to, like, gay clubs with philip, and laura got left behind. chuckles. i think she went off with some boy. she went off with a straight boy. it was better for her. what did philip sallon offer you when you got to know him? excitement. philip was the most exciting, energetic person i'd ever come across. he was absolutely as gay as you could come. he was just outrageous. he wasn't someone who pretended to be straight. he was out, you know? and it was kind of a new thing for me to meet somebody who was so bold. so, he led you into this scene? he led us like gladiators around london, and you know, there was one fantastic night with philip i remember so vividly where we went to one club and we were going to another club, we got in a black taxi and he started changing in the back of the taxi. he, like, literally started changing his outfit.
6:44 am
he was just 24/7 outrageous, philip. like, 24—hour outrageous all the time. there was no off button. and around this time, you were spotted by malcolm mclaren, the manager of the sex pistols, and he invited you tojoin a band, bow wow wow, who actually had a couple of hits around this time, and from what i've read, you played a couple of gigs and were then sacked? so, matthew ashman was the guitarist, who'd been in bow wow wow. malcolm had stolen adam ant�*s band... yeah. ..and formed bow wow wow, and so, matthew used to hear me sing and often said to me, "you've got a really good voice" malcolm brought me into bow wow wow because of the way i looked, and he thought it would threaten annabella... who was the lead singer at the time. yeah, she was 15. she was a young girl. so, he brought in this guy that looked like a girl, you know, to threaten her position and i think once he sort of got what he wanted out of me, threw me out
6:45 am
of the band. were they the first gigs you ever played? yeah! i got pushed onstage at the rainbow theatre. big theatre. yeah, it was the — they did this big concert, bow wow wow, with the fairground. it was a big event and the audience were booing. they were like, "why are you on? "we want annabella." but i got the taste. i was terrified, but once i was on there, i thought, "this is great. "i want to do this again." and then, i did another gig in manchester, at the polytechnic in manchester, and that was when i was fired. then in 1980, you formed culture club with roy hay, the guitarist, and bassist mikey craig and drummerjon moss. yes. # there's a loving in your eyes all the way. # if i listened to your lies would you say. # i'm a man. #aman... did you come up with the name culture club? eventually. we were called can't wait club, we were called the caravan club — we were called all sorts of mad things, and then,
6:46 am
eventually, we worked out that we were so, you know, diverse — jamaican, irish, jewish and then, you know, roy being a real essex boy — so, we were a real mix of cultures and sort of different types of people, you know? # karma, karma, karma, karma, karma, chameleon. # you come and go. # loving would be easy if your colours were like my dream. # red, gold and green... you released your debut album in october 1982, and then you had an amazingly successful hit single, do you really want to hurt me, which went to number one. it was a big hit all around the world. but, i mean, there was a moment when you were on top of the pops, which — i mean, i remember very clearly. everybody in the playground the next day was talking about this appearance. who was the bloke that looked like a girl, you know?
6:47 am
# i have danced. # inside your eyes. # how can i be real? # do you really want to hurt me? what do you remember of that night? we only found out we were going on the night before. we got a phone call to say, "there's a spot available "on top of the pops." we were at the low end of the charts, so we weren't even really eligible to be on there. we got lucky, and in my mind, i wanted to get itjust right. i wanted it to be as odd and kind of beautiful as it could be. you know, i spent a lot of time getting ready. # if it's love you want from me. # then take it away. # everything's not what you see.
6:48 am
# it's over again. # do you really want to hurt me? # do you really want to make me cry? everybody was talking about it the next day, it was in the newspapers all week, this — i mean, it's overnight stardom. did you welcome that? well, it was interesting because, actually, the stuff that was written about us was actually quite derogatory and quite homophobic. it wasn't friendly. people weren't saying, "oh, wow." they were saying, "what is it? you know, "let's not let it near our kids." but i kind of didn't really get why people were so freaked out by what i was doing, but i also liked it. i liked the fact they were freaked out but i didn't understand why they were so freaked out because i understood even then, it was just clothes. it's just make—up and clothes — why do you care? do you really want to hurt me, as i say, was a global hit. i think it went to number two
6:49 am
in america, and that puts you on a totally different level of fame because, i mean, it's very rare for a british band to break america. especially a band like us, i mean... especially... it was like, "oh, my god!" but that's the thing, you see. i think people — you know, i think part of the reason why we were successful in america was because we were so british. did you get any advice as to how to deal with the limelight and that sudden superstar level of fame? well, everybody thinks they're an expert on fame, you know? everybody thinks they know what you should do and what you shouldn't do. but, basically, at the beginning, you'rejust thrown in front of the headlights. you know, there's no real preparation, and when you're 20, you're not going to listen to someone giving you advice about how to be famous. you know, you'rejust like, "oh, shut up," you know? you just want to get on with it, and i mean,
6:50 am
at that point, i hadn't even discovered therapy, questioning things i did. it wasjust no... i grew up in a family where you didn't discuss your problems. you didn't tell outsiders what's going on in the house, you know? so, it was really not until quite later that i was like, "oh! "there's another way of looking at life." you know, growing up, you know, and the beginning of fame, it was a crash course. there was no — no—one helped me at all. the next moment that you've chosen is — i'm going to quote, here — "meeting quentin crisp "with andy warhol, keith haring, bianca jagger and "marilyn." that sounds like some party! where and when? i was in new york and i got a call at the hotel from andy warhol's assistant, saying, "andy's heard "you're in town. "we'd love to bring you — invite you to lunch." and they said, "would you like to invite anyone?" and i said, "oh, i'd love to meet quentin crisp." and they said, "we'll invite him." and he was there, and i'd just done this photo shoot with avedon, the famous photographer. so, when i sat down to lunch with quentin, you know — he said, "oh, mr george, what have you been doing?" and i said, "i just did a shoot with avedon", and he said, "all that
6:51 am
running and chiffon — "you must be so energetic." ijust peed myself laughing, and he really was the life of the lunch. quentin crisp was — you know, andy was very like — he didn't really give a lot away, you know? he watched, more than spoke, and quentin crisp was just so entertaining, so funny, and just kept telling stories and just so lovely. i loved him. so, you had requested his presence, and you must have... yeah! ..so, what did he mean to you, then, growing up? well, he was a pioneer. he was a — he was a liberator. i mean, he was different to us, because he apologised for who he was and we didn't. that was the only thing i didn't have in common with quentin. but then, he got away with what he could at the time. i look at all of those
6:52 am
characters, like oscar wilde, quentin crisp, alan turing, you know, all the people in america, harvey milk, all of those people were people that allowed me to be who i was, you know? as quentin crisp said, the life of a homosexual is a sad one. not for us — it was the opposite. i mean, you look at what's going on now with drag race and the world and how different it is. you know, back then, you know, quentin crisp was getting arrested for just walking down the street. warhol was hosting this lunch then, but then just quietly observing all that was going on. what did he mean to you, growing up, and developing your own artistry? you see, the thing was i was completely impressed by andy warhol. i loved andy warhol, but i was so full of my own self—importance that i couldn't let him know. so, whenever we saw him, we were just ourselves and he didn't really get it. he didn't get that london humour. in his diaries, he insults me four times. every single entry is nasty, but it's very funny. i mean, i saw it as a — i wasn't insulted, i was actually quite pleased that he bothered to mention me. what did he say about you? oh, that, you know, we're rude to him because he can't answer back and he's not quick enough and he says that cornelia guest, who was my best friend — she was a sort
6:53 am
of society queen — he said she's become horrible since she's become friends with me! like, we had a bad influence. so, yeah, i mean, it's a shame i wasn't nicer to him at the time, but there you go — that's life. laughs you had a very well—documented struggle with drug addiction. when did you first use heroin? it sounds so weird because i had really started smoking dope first, i was smoking weed, and then i was in paris at a fashion show, and i was looking for cocaine, and somebody had heroin and i just took that instead, which was quite insane when i think about it, but i didn't think about it at the time. it wasjust, you know, i wanted to be high and, erm... i mean, the thing about drugs is people use them because they don't want to be in their lives. they want to feel differently. they want to change the way they feel about themselves. but it's interesting that you say you were taking drugs to escape. yeah. i mean, do you feel that you were lucky to have survived at times? i don't think you think that about yourself because you're so in it when you're doing it that you don't sort of — you don't sit around thinking about it. it's only when you get clean and you look back and you think, "oh, my god." you might see an interview where you're a little bit
6:54 am
skewwhiff. you think, "why didn't anyone tell me?" and of course they did! people often did say, you know, "what are you doing?" and i would say, "i'm fine, i'm fine!" so, you know, you talk your way out of a lot, and you see it a lot with artists, you know, where people just kind of almost, like, can't do anything, especially if you're an adult. you're an adult, you pay your taxes, you've got a bank account. it's very hard to stop somebody when they want to be destructive. and, i guess, it arguably did get worse, because in 2009, you were sentenced to 15 months in prison. mm. file: the singer boy george has been jailed for 15 months. - he was convicted last year of falsely imprisoning a man at his flat in east london. the court was told he attacked his victim, handcuffed him and hit him with a chain. i know you served four months and that was for assault and false imprisonment. how did you...? read the book, actually. i've read the book. i think i explain it — because i think that's such a tabloid... yeah, but... ..it�*s such a tabloid way of explaining it and i think in the book, ifinally make sense of what actually happened and... of what you were convicted of?
6:55 am
what i was convicted of is, uh, assault but actually, the assault was handcuffing, i wasn't beating anyone up — and i make it really clear in my book, and it was 17 years ago. i paid for my crime and went to prison. that's the worst thing that could ever happen to anyone, to have your freedom taken away from you. it's, if you want to live in a civilised society, you have to accept the way it runs, and i've been through the mill and i've paid. how were you treated in prison? brilliantly. i mean, obviously, when i went in there, i didn't know what i was going to find, you know? but what i did discover is that who you are outside is who you are inside, you know? and, weirdly, you know, people wanted to meet me and they wanted to — you know, theyjust wanted to meet me. they were kind of fascinated by me. you say you coped brilliantly in there. yeah. i mean, how did you cope on a day—to—day basis? i remember my brothers coming
6:56 am
to see me on a visit when i first got my first visit, and i rememberthinking, "i'm so glad it's me and not you three," because they would never have coped. really? no way! because i think, you know, i'd — you know, i got clean a year before i went to prison. mm. so, i had a spiritual programme and i was able to rationalise where i was in my life. i was able to say, "this is because of something i did "in the past. "it's not who i am now." so, i knew i was never going to go back. i knew that i was going to rebuild my life when i came out and was going to change everything. you know, i definitely like who i am now and i'm very different to the person i was ten years ago, 20 years ago. and you're still writing and still recording — i mean, you've released nine solo albums on top of the six that you recorded. i've released 52 tracks in the last two years on spotify. yeah. i release stuff all the time. i know — i was going to say that you're very prolific at releasing exactly those individual tracks. so, looking back as a songwriter — which is your,
6:57 am
i guess, your primary occupation — is there a single song that you are most proud of? i haven't written it yet. really? there's a few songs already online that i love and think are some of my best work. a song i wrote about liberace, called how to be a chandelier — that's probably one of my favourite things i've ever written. basically, i mean, the industry that i was in doesn't exist, so there's no rules any more. i don't see why anyone waits around to make a record. it seems so ridiculous. it's so easy to make records. is that liberating, then? well, when you see — people say, "oh, they waited 20 "years to make an album" — why? laughs. why? wait 20 minutes. it's like, songwriting is easy. songwriting is easy. getting it played is not easy, you know, because you hear all the same things. but as a writer, you're not trying to write another karma chameleon. i've got no interest in writing karma chameleon. i want something much better than that. so, i think i'm in an industry that tries to suppress your
6:58 am
creativity and you always want to get better at what you're doing, and i really do think that the way i perform now as an artist is night—and—day different to what i did in the �*80s. i was uncomfortable, i didn't know what i was doing, i was insecure, and now, i'm actually engaged with the audience. there's no fear. well, i was going to say, what drives you on creatively? well, what i'm doing now is what keeps me excited. i mean, i'm not particularly interested in the past because the past doesn't exist. so, when people talk to me about the past, i'm like, "it doesn't exist". i understand what they're doing but i think it's unhealthy to keep living over what you did when there's so much more to do now. so, i would say i'm a now person. i mean, i respect the past and i have to talk about it a lot and it doesn't bother me so much, but now is everything, kids. move on. laughs boy george — george o'dowd — thank you for sharing your cultural life with us. that was a really good interview! thank you! thanks. they're rare! laughter they are rare, i'm telling you! it's really rare, to talk to people and actually go, "actually, i've really enjoyed that." thank you.

7:02 am
milner has the story. in the democratic republic of the congo, hospitals like this one are filling up with patients who have mpox. originally known as monkey pox, the disease can be passed on by close physical contact with anyone with the infection. it causes flu—like symptoms and blisters, which is usually clear up in two or three weeks. but in a small proportion of cases, it can prove fatal. especially in vulnerable children. translation: we have been shown images on the phone and on tv - are people who are suffering from the same illness. i am scared and so worried. so far the mpox outbreak centred on the democratic republic of congo as lead to over confirmed 16,000 cases and more than 500 deaths this year. there is particular concern about a new type of the virus,
7:03 am
known as clade1b, which appears to be more virulent and infection than the one because of public health efficiency two years ago. it is spreading much more rapidly. we have seen other spreads. that is one issue. it does have quite a high case fatality rate at the moment. currently there are no cases of the new clade 1b variant of mpox confirmed in the uk, but experts say cases can spread if international action is not taken. health officials are urging countries with mpox vaccine stockpiles to donate them to countries with ongoing outbreaks. there is a physical shortage of testing, treatment and vaccines on the continent. the shortages are hampering the ability to contain the outbreak. we are calling for urgent international support to increase access to vaccine stocks and treatment options and to scale up testing and alert investigation.

7:06 am
because there is a real fear, is the sides are still talking, because there is a realfear, given the iranian context, that this could escalate into a regional war. the key thing is they are still talking and there are small signs of progress. and there are small signs of progress-— and there are small signs of rouress. . ~' ,, , . the ukrainian president volodymyr zelensky has said russia is suffering losses that are "very helpful" for his country's defence. kyiv�*s forces are continuing their incursion into russian territory for a twelfth day. the ukrainian army chief said his troops had advanced as much as two miles east over the past day. six men have beenjailed for taking part in what a judge described as "12 hours of racist, hate—fuelled mob violence" in hull. the city was one of a number affected by a wave of disorder throughout england and northern ireland earlier this month. jo makel has this report. bleep he was part of a mob which targeted a car, terrifying the eastern european men inside. he looted stores, filling a bag at lush like he was on a shopping spree. you can see him mouthing "merry christmas" as he hands out stolen goods.

across the country. prince harry and meghan have been continuing their tour of colombia, meeting young people in a school in the capital, bogota. because the couple aren't senior members of the royal family, their four day visit to the country has been dubbed a "diy royal tour". our south america correspondent ione wells has more. a colombian spectacle to greet prince harry and meghan. they spent their second day of their trip to columbia meeting more young people at this school, known as one of the top schools in the world. the focus of this trip has been to highlight their campaigns to make the internet safe for children. they were shown activities these children do to help their physical and mental health. it comes after meghan said on the first visit that being a mother drove her to help keep children safe online. i look at it through the lens of what my children, our children are going to adopt,
7:10 am
as they grow older. and how we can keep them safe, because i do believe all of us agree, despite whatever disparities there are throughout the world, no—one contests the fact that we want to keep our children safe. and prince harry said he was worried about how quickly false information spread on the internet. for as long as people are allowed to spread lies, to abuse and to harass without consequence, then social cohesion is, as we know it, is completely broken down. journalists weren't allowed to any of the events that the couple did on the second day of their visit to colombia. they brought their own camera team which they said was to ensure that events were represented accurately. but what that means is all that we can see of the events they have done is what they want us to see, much like a lot of the events that members of the royal family do. their team shared these images with us of their visit

7:21 am
includes when people make complaints that they can be kicked up just for making a complaint about the conditions in their home. we hope they will get rid of those and when they will get rid of those and when they introduce new types of eviction grounds, so when there is a reason, such as selling a home, there needs to be better protections for renters. you only need two months notice to be evicted. this is driving up the record numbers of children living in temporary accommodation, so we need to see the notice period increased so people can save up and prepare.- notice period increased so people can save up and prepare. there is a minimum of — can save up and prepare. there is a minimum of 28 _ can save up and prepare. there is a minimum of 28 days _ can save up and prepare. there is a minimum of 28 days if _ can save up and prepare. there is a minimum of 28 days if they - can save up and prepare. there is a minimum of 28 days if they have i minimum of 28 days if they have breached a rental agreement. the rental agreement can be anything they choose, it can't it?— they choose, it can't it? there is still the no _ they choose, it can't it? there is still the no fault _ they choose, it can't it? there is still the no fault eviction - they choose, it can't it? there is still the no fault eviction optionl still the no fault eviction option in scotland because it isn't the fault of the tenant if somebody wants to move in or move a family member on. the housing bill in scotland is going to parliament as

7:23 am
people are suffering in our country. ben, you will be aware that when we talk about these issues, and this is what you do, and we talk about it here, you will often get landlords saying renters need landlords, they need someone to rent off. and if the results of the change in legislation means more landlords say, do you know what, i don't want to numbers anymore, i don't feel protected, i do at risk because a —— i feel at risk, they sell the property. that isn't good because you need accommodation. is there a risk that clamping down on the way renters are treated they could be less rental accommodation available? shot and there is a risk— accommodation available? shot and there is a risk because _ accommodation available? shot and there is a risk because right - accommodation available? shot and there is a risk because right now - accommodation available? shot and there is a risk because right now if i there is a risk because right now if you were to sell your home as a landlord, the clock starts ticking for two months. we need more predictions. we would welcome the landlord lobby supporting us. fin landlord lobby supporting us. on both sides? landlords would say we,

too, need protection against — whatever — in order to stay in the marketplace, they might say they, too, did protections within the law. let me give the example of moving from two months to four months notice. fora from two months to four months notice. for a landlord that means they can't notice. fora landlord that means they can't re— notice. for a landlord that means they can't re— access their property for another two months. they may have to delay the sale, for example, of the property. for the individual, as we heard in carly's case, there is potential homelessness, been driven into poverty, the impacts aren't insignificant. there needs to be space to avoid the worst possible outcome. landlords can wear that because because the enormous amount of rent we're paying already. we don't need more landlords, we need more homes. we want to access homeownership. landlords don't often build, they are often buying, skipping the queue in front of first home buyers, so we need to find a

sheeran bought a stake in them. at lunchtime they take on liverpool. and for a few hours, at least, everything is possible. patrick gearey, bbc news. ipswich fans have a lot to look forward to over the next nine months. it's notjust them. only a handful of the squad has had any sort of real premier league experience ahead of that opening match against liverpool at lunchtime. while kieran mckenna is about to embark on his first campaign as a manager in the top flight. the group have worked so hard for the opportunity that we have in front of this season. of course, the club, the time the supporters have waited a long time to be back in the premier league and you have what we have ahead of us. so it is great excitement. again, we know the scale of the challenge, we know what's ahead of us, but we are so excited for the game tomorrow, the first premier league aimie portman road in 22 years. it will be a wonderful occasion. 50, week one in the premier league,
7:45 am
but it's week two in the championship. ten games taking place today, but it'll take a lot to beat what we saw last night. coventry got their first victory of the season and their winner came a lot later than the one at old trafford. twice they led, twice they were pegged back by oxford, until the 96th minute when haji wright scored for a 3—2 victory. it wasn't only the premier league that started last night. the same happened in france. while in germany their season starts with the early rounds of the cup and harry kane is already among the goals. bayern munich got four of them. kane providing the final one in a 4—0 win over second division side ulm. it was their first competitive match under new manager vincent kompany. the final tennis grand slam gets going a week on monday, but cameron norrie will play no part in it. he's still suffering with the forearm injury which also prevented him from competing in the olympics. with andy murray's retirement, jack draper and dan evans are currently the only british men in the main draw in new york. and draper seems to be heading
7:46 am
to flushing meadows in good form. having beaten stefanos tsitsipas in the second round of the cincinnati open. the british number one made it through to the quarter finals with a three set win over felix auger—aliassime. but wimbledon champion carlos alcaraz is out having played what he called the worst match of his career. his second round match resumed last night after a rain delay, but he was beaten in three sets by 37—year—old gael monfils. alcaraz also saying afterwards he couldn't control himself. rugby league's magic weekend has a new home, with elland road playing host to the six superleague games over the next two days. while the venue is different, the stakes are the same. leeds will have home advantage for their match against warrington tonight, while the weekend also includes three derbies, including this afternoon's between defending champions wigan and st helens. it could be a big weekend forjustin rose in the first event of the pga tour's season ending fedex cup playoffs. he'll start it just three shots off the lead. a second consecutive round of 66 has rose at 8—under par at the stjude championship in memphis. scotland's bob macintyre is a shot further back, four off the lead, which is held jointly byjapan's hideki matsuyama and american denny mccarthy.
7:47 am
while at the women's scottish open, megan khang and minjee lee lead the way on 8—under par. khang hit a 4—under par round of 68 in troon, while lee went round in 69. england's charley hull is tied third, two shots back. richard pyrah, who was sacked in 2021 amid the yorkshire racism scandal, has been named as the county's new women's head coach. pyrah was found to have used racist slurs by a cricket discipline commission panel in march last year was subsequently fined and banned from coaching for two weeks. pyrah also won a claim of unfair dismissal against yorkshire in 2022, had a ten—year playing career with the county. not for the first time this morning, posing for photos with gold medals. i never usually ask for selfies, but

7:49 am
its chassis is made from one piece of steel. all the curves, all the lines have been folded like origami, following a design by its creator, tue beijer. with the curve—folding, we dance with the metal. the reason is notjust about aesthetics. see, a typical scooter is assembled in special factories from more than 100 parts, and then it's shipped around the world. but for this bike, all that would need to be sent anywhere is the design. because a bike, if you would send a bike in a crate, you're just shipping air. you don't want to ship air. whether you're in sweden, you're in england, you'll probably find sheet metal, right? so it's better to send the code rather than to send yourfinal product. that's a very, very efficient way to do it, you know? so you want to produce
7:50 am
near the end customer. i've been given permission to fire the laser. the plan is for locally sourced steel to be laser—cut into the flat chassis pattern, and then for robots to bend it into the right shape like these ones are currently doing for other simpler objects. all in all, there are 15 components, including a saddle that also starts life flat. and once it's all been folded up, it comes here to be welded and it looks like this. while the design is still being perfected, the prototypes are bent manually. the curved folds in particular are hard to get your head around. stilride has developed its own software to calculate how to get the shapes that they need — with help from a hand—cranked folding machine back
7:51 am
at the office, that is. but i know what you're thinking. without all those bolts and screws and separate supports, can a folded piece of metal be strong enough to ride around on? if you put a straight fold into a material, it doesn't become that strong. because even if you lock one side of the fold, it can carry on bending like that. but if you put a curved fold into a material, then as you change the shape on one side of the fold, it forces the other side into a particular shape too. and that means if you lock this side into position, the whole structure becomes rigid. the best example i've seen of that is your french fries container, which is pretty flimsy when you're only using the straight folds on the edge, but there are two curved folds on the bottom, and if you engage those,
7:52 am
the whole thing locks into place and your chips don't fall out. the bike that we created now, or the chassis that we've done for the stilride one, compared to a competitor bike — it's a tubular frame, a typical scooter. we created a chassis that's even 50 times stronger or more stiff, rigid, than the tubular frame. stilride has bigger ambitions than just two wheels of steel. parts of larger vehicles could also be made this way, along with the footings for wind turbines that would imitate tree roots, and... really?! even whole bridges? well, maybe in sections. one step at a time, though. the scooter goes into production later this year and it'll cost 15,000 euros.
7:53 am
these trains, being built in the heart of tuscany, are europe's first tri—mode trains to enter passenger service, having started running on routes in italy at the end of 2022. as well as being fitted with a pantograph for overhead power and a standard diesel engine, they're also fitted with a battery pack power unit and can be switched between modes. these trains are being manufactured by hitachi railfor italian rail operator trenitalia, based on hitachi rail�*s masaccio platform. the characteristic is that he can combine during the trip and change this technology in during the life, so without any sort of discontinuity and any sort of disruption.
7:54 am
these trains will still rely on diesel power for large parts of some routes. the batteries only have a range of 15km at present, though they can be recharged while the train is in operation, both in diesel and electric mode. when it's near a station, the batteries power the train completely, cutting emissions and reducing noise. so what are some of the challenges with implementing battery technology in trains? is it weight or is it power consumption? it's a combination of these two items. so our experts and our designers are continuously working on it. reduce the weight means also reduce the energy and the consumption. and it's a problem of space, it's a problem of weight. so the evolution of the proposal for battery is improving this aspect. this is why, in terms of weight and size, it's ok, but now it will require test and test in order before to go on the market. despite this, hitachi claim these new trains will produce 50% less emissions than regular diesel trains.
7:55 am
currently, we are totally focused on battery solutions. of course, our research and development is working on it. but in terms of time to market, we are confident and believe that this solution will be...will have strong success in medium and short—term. like cars, the direction of travel for trains is towards that of battery power. but unlike cars, trains aren't quite there yet. now, trains like this specific one are a step in the right direction, but we're still quite a few years out from having fully battery—operated trains. but at least we're on the right track. electric vehicles still have many issues that need to be ironed out. the fear of range anxiety, the wait to charge them up,
7:56 am
and limited battery resources. sweden is embracing a different approach that hopes to tackle some of these problems — electric roads where vehicles can charge up on the go. adrienne murray has paid a visit to a demonstration project in the south of the country, where a new type of electric road technology is being put through its paces. charging up without plugging in. could this be the future for electric vehicles? in the town of lund in southern sweden, i'm being taken for a spin along evolution road. this looks like a regular electric vehicle, but underneath, there's something different. there's a pick—up that means it makes contact with an electrified rail, and can charge up while it's on the go. the road consists of short segments that actually switch on power under the vehicle.
7:57 am
the power is following the vehicle. mm. and we have more than three sliding contacts, so we get a steady current from the road. the technology here isn't wireless. it's called conductive charging. imagine a scalectrix. electricity flows to the vehicle through a metal strip that slides along the rail. a camera follows the green led lights to help keep it centred, while an antenna system and series of sensors ensure only specific sections have live current. and because it ids the vehicle, the owner can be billed for their energy use. under here you have an antenna receiver. so the vehicle comes, sends a signal. this will switch on to 650v when the vehicle is over it.
7:58 am
and then, when it has passed, it will immediately switch off. elonroad, the firm behind the tech, argued that electric roads make more sense than building a huge network of chargers. this is especially important when you have long haul trucks or buses, and it's actually cheaper to build electric roads if everyone has smaller batteries. it will pay for the infrastructure. it works for all types of four—wheeled vehicles. to test it out, a tesla and nissan leaf have been modified, though there's no connection to those companies. the tech has also been applied to a local bus, and even this commercial van. i think it's time i give it a go. she laughs i don't get to drive vans very often! so i'm just going to centre the van. yeah. so let's see if we can get the pick—up down. yep. there we go. oh, yep. it's following the... i can see the green lights, and it's there, isn't it? yeah. so now you will get the energy to drive and you will charge
7:59 am
the battery at the same time. and when you leave the road, it will automatically go up. yep. you can continue driving for twice the length. butjust how safe is it having an electrical current in the middle of the road, both for drivers and the public? we believe we have a really safe system that you cannot hack, and it will immediately shut down the road if someone tries to tamper with it. plans are moving ahead to build the country's first permanent electrified road by 2025. so perhaps, in not too distant future, we could be powering up as we drive. spencer: and that is it for our transportation special. hope you've enjoyed it, and we'll see you next time.

ahead of a celebration concert for britain's olympians throughout the morning, we'll have 12 team gb gold medallists here on the sofa. in sport... the premier league returns and in dramatic style, manchester united beat fulham in the opening match of the season courtesy of an 87th minute toe poke from one of their new signings plenty of dry weather, sunny spells for many of us, i will bring you the full forecast very shortly. it's saturday, the 17th of august. our main story... the world health organisation is asking countries with mpox vaccine stockpiles to donate them to nations with ongoing outbreaks. a wave of infections has killed hundreds of people in the democratic republic of congo as a highly contagious variant of the virus spreads. it comes as a company which manufactures one of the vaccines says it needs orders to be placed quickly, so it can meet demand. our reporter leigh
8:02 am
milner has the story. in the democratic republic of congo, hospitals like this one are filling up with patients who have mpox. originally known as monkeypox, the disease can be passed on by close physical contact with anyone with the infection. it causes flu like symptoms and blisters, which usually clear up in 2 or 3 weeks, but in a small proportion of cases it can prove fatal, especially in vulnerable children. we have been shown images on the phone and on tv of people who are suffering from the same illness. i am scared and i am so worried. so far, the mpox outbreak, centred in the democratic republic of congo, has led to more than 16,000 confirmed cases and more than 500 deaths this year. there's particular concern
8:03 am
about a new type of the virus, known as clade 1b, which appears to be more virulent and infectious than the one which caused a public health emergency two years ago. so it's spreading much more rapidly than we had seen others spread. so that's one issue. it does have quite a high case fatality rate at the moment. currently, there are no cases of the new clade ib variant of mpox confirmed in the uk, but experts say cases can spread if international action is not taken. health officials are urging countries with mpox vaccine stockpiles to donate them to countries with ongoing outbreaks. there is a critical shortage of testing, treatment and vaccines across the continent. these shortages are severely hampering the ability to contain the outbreak. we are calling for urgent international support to increase access to vaccine stocks and treatment options, and to scale up testing and alert investigation.

in cities across the country. prince harry and meghan have been continuing their tour of colombia, meeting young people in a school in the capital, bogota. because the couple aren't senior members of the royal family, their four—day visit to the country has been dubbed a 'diy royal tour'. our south america correspondent, lone wells, has more. a colombian spectacle to greet prince harry and meghan. they spent their second day of their trip to colombia, meeting more young people at this school, known as one of the top schools in the world. the focus of this trip has been to highlight their campaigns to make the internet safer for children. they were shown activities these children do to help their physical and mental health. it comes after meghan said on the first day of their visit that being a mother drove her to help keep children safe online. i look at it through the lens of what my children, our children, are going to adopt as they get older and how we can keep
8:11 am
them safe, because i do believe all of us agree despite whatever disparities there are throughout the world, no one contests the fact that we want to keep our children safe. and prince harry said he was worried about how quickly false information spread on the internet. for as long as people are allowed to spread lies, to abuse, to harass without consequence, then social cohesion is as we know it, is completely broken down. journalists weren't allowed to any of the events that the couple did on their second day of their visit to colombia. they brought their own camera team, which they said was to ensure that events were represented accurately. but what that means is that, all that we can see of the events they've done is what they want us to see, much like a lot of the events that members of the royal family do. their team shared these images with us of their visit. in the afternoon, they met colombia's invictus games team,
8:12 am
the sports competition prince harry founded. it's for wounded, sick or injured armed servicemen and women, past and present. this visit marked the final stop on the couple's tour of the capital, bogota, before they head north to the coastal city of cartagena. lone wells, bbc news in bogota. i2 12 minutes past eight is the time. the authorities at one of wales' most popular tourist destinations are encouraging people to visit on weekdays, or outside the summer months, following a boom in visitors driven by social media. the influx of people using instagram and tiktok picturing themselves at baneye bruckayonog, formerly known as the brecon beacons, has led to increased footfall and concerns about the impact on the environment. two tourists from the czech republic

western areas of the uk. parts of east anglia but plenty of sunshine expected today across east anglia and the south—east of england. that cloud increase were ten, further north west, one or two showers can't be ruled out but will be isolated so for most of us will be quite dry. quite breezy across scotland, temp is about 15 degrees at about 20, 24, maybe 25 degrees. through this evening and night, a lot of the cloud would disappear, still one or two showers on, a rather brisk winter. temperatures will get down to about ten to 13 celsius. any the camp —— in the countryside, getting down to single figures, perhaps a fresh start to the sunday morning. sunday, high—pressure situated you were to south, influencing the weather for many of us, dry with sunny spells. still breezy across scotland, the odd shower but for most of us, a dry day again with

some sunshine. maxim damage is getting to 17 to 25 celsius. and now into next week, alison —— look a little bit more changeable, some sunshine at times, quite breezy and rain at times as well. you may have heard or read that there is a hurricane on the way. well, if you're watching, that is not, there is but not as you might expect. as the moment, we've got a hurricane in bermuda, it effected puerto rico earlier this week. hurricane ernesto is making landfall in bermuda and what is going to happen is that we are going to see as hurricane moved north with as we go to the next few days. as it moves northwards, it is going to lose its intensity and with that, it will lose its hurricane status. 50 even though it is a hurricane, as it moves across the atlantic, it willjust be the remnants of a hurricane as we go into next week. wednesday and thursday, you can see it's going to
8:16 am
be quite windy and wet for many of us. but before then, on monday, it would turn wet and windy towards northern and western areas. scotland and northern ireland, western fringes of england and wales, further east is looking more dry. quite breezy, particularly around these irish sea coast on monday. maximum can produce up to about 17 or 18 degrees in the north—west. 2425 maximum can produce up to about 17 or 18 degrees in the north—west. 2425 down maximum can produce up to about 17 or 18 degrees in the north—west. 2425 down to maximum can produce up to about 17 or 18 degrees in the north—west. 2425 down to the maximum can produce up to about 17 or 18 degrees in the north—west. 2425 down to the south—east. maximum can produce up to about 17 or 18 degrees in the north—west. 2425 down to the south—east. thanks very much simon. the mother of a girl who died after suffering a severe reaction to hot chocolate has accused the food industry of treating allergen safety training like a 'tick—box exercise.�* hannahjacobs' mother, abbie, made the comments after the 13—year—old died last year as a result of a 'failure of communication' when ms duyile bought the drink at a branch of costa coffee. costa has described hannah's death as a tragedy. our reporter, poppy jeffery, has more. described by family as a vivacious, caring and affectionate child who loved life.
8:17 am
hannahjacobs wasjust 13 when she died after drinking a hot chocolate. she had a severe dairy allergy and within hours of taking a sip of the drink, hannah had died. a coroner yesterday ruled it was a combination of failures that caused her death, failing to follow the allergy process in place, as well as a failure in communication. it is clear to me that although the food service industry and medical professionals are required to have allergy training, the training is really not taken seriously enough. better awareness is really needed in these industries and across society of the symptoms of anaphylaxis. erwin carey, from east sussex, was celebrating his 18th birthday when he had an anaphylactic reaction after eating chicken containing buttermilk, despite telling restaurant staff he was allergic to dairy. his dad has since been
8:18 am
campaigning for owen's law, something that's been recommended by the food standards agency. it would mean all allergens have to be labelled on menus and also includes recommendations on things like training. it's important that training is given and that this training is properly assessed. there's no point having an online module which the basically you mark your own homework. it needs to be checked that the the trainee has understood what is required of that particular restaurant system. that would all improve the situation. and that's part and parcel of what we're asking to be improved. owen's law builds on natasha's law, which requires prepacked foods to have full ingredient lists. it was introduced in 2021 after the death of 15—year—old natasha ednan—laperouse, who died after eating a pret a manger baguette containing sesame. natasha's parents, alongside hanna's mum abby, are calling
8:19 am
for urgent government action. they want people to realise that allergies are a serious, unpredictable health condition and not a lifestyle choice. poppyjeffri, bbc news. we'rejoined now by nadim and tanya ednan—laperouse. their daughter, natasha, died after suffering a severe allergic reaction to sesame baked into a pret baguette. nadine, into a pret baguette. tanya, good morning to you. one nadine, tanya, good morning to you. one can only imagine that this is yet another case of a severe allergic reaction. and it takes you back to the loss of natasha and i suppose it garners you to do more to make changes. i know you have been working closely with hannah's mum abby, what is your reaction and what are you working on at this moment in time to improve the situation? to protect more people? this is a really tragic story of a young british life taking far too early,
8:20 am
cut short. completely avoidable, you know, and led tragedy. it is happen to us as a family, we lost daughter natasha. we empathise with abby�*s —— hannah's mum and family. around 50 families we know now in the uk whose children have died since our own children have died since our own child has died. we really are on a machine with the natasha allergy research foundation, tanya and our colleagues —— mac really are on a mission to bring some common—sense change into the uk to help protect these young people and start to dial back with the kind of tragedy and the increasing levels of hospitalisations around food allergies. a lot of it is common sense and in abbie's case you can really feel a sense of how the real missed opportunity to save her life on several fronts. missed opportunity to save her life on severalfronts. it missed opportunity to save her life on several fronts. it is really quite shocking and stressful to

8:24 am
staff certainly around hospitality where understandably many of the employees are from different countries and english may not be their first language and that is fine and that is fair enough but, the training is a wrap around those people so that it really works and makes a difference. because tick box is not going to work for millions of people with food allergies in this country who have money to spend and can spend wherever they like and buy whatever drinks and food they should be fairly, in the food economy and not excluded and kept safe. good training will solve that you are logically. i training will solve that you are louicall . ~ ., training will solve that you are loaicall. ~ ., ., �*, ., _ logically. i know that's obviously ou logically. i know that's obviously you campaign — logically. i know that's obviously you campaign on _ logically. i know that's obviously you campaign on these - logically. i know that's obviously you campaign on these issues i logically. i know that's obviously | you campaign on these issues for such personal reasons. when you, as an individual, go into establish is to buy a sandwich or a coffee, what do you see? given what has happened

8:43 am
to build from there. and um, last season, uh, was also a season where they could win a trophy with this team. so we are hoping and aiming forthe same. of course, this season is not going to be easy because, uh, a lot of good and strong teams in the premier league that also strengthen the squad. so, um, but we are looking forward to the challenge. so week one in the premier league... but it's week two in the championship. 10 games taking place today... but it'll take a lot to beat what we saw last night...(tx coventry got their first victory of the season... and their winner came a lot later than the one at old trafford. twice they led... twice they were pegged back by oxford... until the 96th minute when haji wright scored for a 3—2 victory. rugby league's magic weekend has a new home... with elland road playing host to the six superleague games over the next two days. while the venue is different... the stakes are the same. there are three derbies across the weekend including this afternoon's between defending
8:44 am
champions wigan and st helens, while even though they normally play at headingley leeds will still have home advantage for their match against warrington tonight... although there's one wolves player who's actually more thrilled about that. from a fan's point of view, i do understand the frustrations, but, um, i think we'll find out on monday after the weekend. how the how the weekend were, how they found it. um, i know they've got lots of stuff planned around the stadium. it was perfect in newcastle. it was, you know, it's a great city. the stadium is right in the city centre and a massive stadium. but magic weekend is like one of the first fixtures you look forward to. and when you look at the fixture list and you know it's a big occasion, you know what players we can't wait to play out, play out there with a massive crowd, big stadium, so it'll be a good experience. it could be a big weekend forjustin rose in the first event of the pga tour's season ending fedex cup playoffs. he'll start it just three shots off the lead. a second consecutive round of 66 has rose at 8 under par at the stjude champinoship in memphis. scotland's bob macintyre is a shot further back... four off the lead...
8:45 am
which is held jointly by japan's hideki matsuyama and american denny mccarthy. while at the women's scottish open... meghan khang and minjee lee lead the way on 8 under par. khang hit a 1! under par round of 68 in troon... while lee went round in 69. england's charley hull is tied third... two shots back. like in the men's game this tournament precedes the open which is at st andrews next week. the final tennis grand slam gets going a week on monday but cameron norrie will play no part in the us open. he's still suffering with the forearm injury which also prevented him from competing in the olympics. with andy murray's retirement, jack draper and dan evans are currently the only british men in the main draw in new york. and draper seems to be heading to flushing meadows in good form. having beaten stefanos tsitsipas in the second round of the cincinnati open, the british number one made it through to the quarter fnials with a three set win over felix auger—aliassime. but wimbledon champion carlos alcaraz
8:46 am
is out having played what he called the worst match of his career. he was beaten in three sets by 37 year old gael monfils in frustrating circumstances. alcaraz also saying afterwards he couldn't control himself. only 21 years old but still having a bit of a touch of the petulant teenager. understandable, he is used to doing better than he did. we teenager. understandable, he is used to doing better than he did.— to doing better than he did. we have seen loads of— to doing better than he did. we have seen loads of tennis _ to doing better than he did. we have seen loads of tennis players - seen loads of tennis players doing that. _ seen loads of tennis players doing that, djokovic did that not long ago _ that, djokovic did that not long ago if— that, d'okovic did that not long aro. . that, d'okovic did that not long aro, , ., . that, d'okovic did that not long aro. , .,. , that, d'okovic did that not long aro. , , , ., ago. if he is in fact they petulant teena . er, ago. if he is in fact they petulant teenager, what _ ago. if he is in fact they petulant teenager, what might _ ago. if he is in fact they petulant teenager, what might he - ago. if he is in fact they petulant teenager, what might he be - ago. if he is in fact they petulant l teenager, what might he be saying ago. if he is in fact they petulant - teenager, what might he be saying if he bashes his racket. i feel teenager, what might he be saying if he bashes his racket.— he bashes his racket. i feel we haven't seen _ he bashes his racket. i feel we haven't seen that _ he bashes his racket. i feel we haven't seen that from - he bashes his racket. i feel we haven't seen that from him. i he bashes his racket. i feel we| haven't seen that from him. he he bashes his racket. i feel we i haven't seen that from him. he is and his career has been extraordinary. everyone has a bad day. he extraordinary. everyone has a bad da . . extraordinary. everyone has a bad da . , ., , extraordinary. everyone has a bad da . . ., , ., extraordinary. everyone has a bad da . , ., , ., ., day. he is not used to that happening- _ arcade game fans are preparing to compete in what's being described as the uk's only dedicated pinball

event this weekend in daventry. 'pinfest uk' will see some of the best compete in the 3 day tournament — including one of the regional champions, nathan garwood. our reporter, laura foster, has been to meet him. a warning, her report contains flashing images.. in nathan's childhood home, there's a room dedicated to his favourite hobby. to those who love it, pinball has all the rules and strategy of video games mixed with the timing, precision and skill of sports such as pool and snooker, and it's becoming more and more popular. # shock waves mean bad ball. there's nothing else like it. it'sjust really, really enjoyable to do. in the east anglia

we've had our own league this year. that's never happened before because there's never been enough venues, enough collectors, enough games in order to do it. he's been playing since he was a kid and they've even got their own electronic scoreboard. it's great. it means i get to spend a lot of time with him. he beats me. he beats lots of people. he's very good. i think he's given nathan a big, big field of friends over the years as well. so it's a good thing. this weekend, nathan will be competing at pin fest, the uk's biggest pinball contest in daventry. but there will also be hundreds of machines for members of the general public to play on for free. and there's already some talk in the community about competitions getting even more prominence in the future. i think people would be surprised by how entertaining it is to watch because, you know, people stream these tournaments, you can watch them online, on twitch and things. sadly, there wasn't enough time in ourfilming schedule to capture my very high final score. laura foster, bbc news in ipswich. the olympics offered a chance to see a massive range of sports that we wouldn't normally be able
