6:00 am
hello. this is breakfast, with rogerjohnson and rachel burden. bolt bows out with bronze. the greatest sprinter of all time fails to secure a 20th global gold as he prepares to exit the world stage for the last time. it is just it isjust one it is just one of those things. do you know what i mean? i cannot say much. ijust did not execute it when it mattered. so, here at the london stadium, it was bronze for bolt, gold for gatlin. the controversial american stunned the crowd by taking the title. and he paid his own tribute to his great rival, bolt. good morning. it's sunday the 6th of august. ministers launch a review into the cost of energy, but consumer groups say it's "cold comfort" for households that are already paying too much. "stop wrapping children in cotton wool." the new chief inspector of schools says overzealous health and safety rules are holding pupils back.
6:01 am
and how to have a vacation like vladimir putin. we will talk about the russian president as he goes on his summer holidays. and the weather. a fresh start to sunday. you will hang on to the sunshine the longest the further south and west you are. the man said to be the world's greatest ever sprinter, usain bolt, has failed to win his last individual ioo—metre race at the world athletics championships in london. bolt is retiring after a career which saw him win 11 world titles and eight olympic gold medals. he finished third, behind americans, justin gatlin and christian coleman. gatlin has twice served doping bans. our sports editor, dan roan, watched the action unfold. with the night sky crackling with excitement, the fireworks gave a
6:02 am
sense of what was to come. lapping up sense of what was to come. lapping up the adulation one last time. he knew this buildup had not been perfect. he was beaten in the semi—final by an american. his sta rts semi—final by an american. his starts were also shaky. he gets a pretty good start. coleman. chasing hard. here he comes. gatlin wins it! usain bolt was pushed into bronze. the disbelief swept around the stadium. the crowd made it more than clear what they thought of it. gatlin had shocked the world. but he quickly moved from arrogance to see military. as the american basked in unpopular glory, usain bolt gave his
6:03 am
word. i did not executed when it mattered to bite it wasn't meant to be this way. the crowd expected usain bolt to win his final 100 metre race, not come third, and certainly not get beaten by a two times drug cheat, justin gatlin. it is the last thing they would have wa nted is the last thing they would have wanted disabilities things can happen. but you come back hard. the crowd had experienced history, just not the history they experienced. usain bolt has transcended his sport. —— expected. an independent review into the cost of energy is being launched by the governmentjust days after british gas raised standard electricity prices by 12.5%. the business secretary, greg clark, says the report will examine how prices can be kept as low as possible, while ensuring the uk still meets its climate change targets. let's speak to our political correspondent, leila nathoo. shejoins us from
6:04 am
she joins us from london. shejoins us from london. good morning. this is interesting, isn't it? the government is showing this commitment to trying to keep prices down while british gas only a few days ago put them up. the government, that is right, the government, that is right, the government has expressed concern for some time about energy prices before the election. theresa may went into that election promising a cap on bills for consumers on standard tariffs. but that commitment was dropped from the queen's speech after the election. the regulator, 0fgem, is looking at measures to protect consumers on prepaid meters. now this independent review will look at how to reduce costs across the board. energy companies are welcoming it. by the end of october, consumer groups want it now. that is
6:05 am
interesting. thank you very much indeed. speaking about consumer groups. later on, we'll be speaking to will hodson, co—founder of "the big deal," a consumer group that advise people how to save money on their energy bills. 0r or try to at least. italian police have arrested a polish man accused of kidnapping and drugging a british model as she arrived for a photo—shoot. the 20—year—old woman was attacked by two men and held captive for six days. it's alleged they threatened to hold an on line auction for her unless a ransom was paid. 30—year—old, lukasz pawel herba, who lives in britain, has been arrested on suspicion of kidnap and extortion. schools must stop trying "to wrap children in cotton wool" because it leaves them ill—prepared for the challenges of later life. that's the view of the chief inspector of schools. 0fsted's amanda spielman says over the top health and safety rules stop children developing resilience and wants new guidance for schools in england. andy moore reports. it is clear the chief inspector of
6:06 am
schools is no fan of children in high—vis jackets. she says they look like troops of many construction workers without hard hats. —— mini. she claims they are being shortchanged by teachers trying to intellect them from every bump, germ intellect them from every bump, germ, or bruiser. take conkers. she says every minute trying to get rid of it takes away from the multitude of it takes away from the multitude of lessons they face. she says she wa nts of lessons they face. she says she wants this. she wants children to be able to take full advantage of the freedom of childhood to explore the world around them. and so, to that end, the 1800 school inspectors in britain will be taking part in sessions next month called what
6:07 am
really matters? there is also a warning today that children are spending too much of their free time on line. it comes from the children's commissioner in england saying youngsters are bingeing on social media in the same way they like to tuck into junk food. they say they want parents to regulate internet usage just like they do withjunk food. belgian officials have admitted they knew that eggs from dutch farms might be contaminated with an insecticide a month before the issue became public. belgium's food safety agency said it had kept quiet because of an ongoing fraud investigation. shops in belgium, the netherlands and germany, have removed the eggs from sale. tough new sanctions will be imposed on north korea following the country's recent intercontinental ballistic missile tests. the un voted unanimously for the resolution to ban some north korean exports, like iron, coal and lead, and to limit investments in the country. pyongyang has been under un
6:08 am
sanctions for almost a decade, but refuses to end its nuclear programmes. our new york correspondent, nick bryant, reports. this was a show of ambition and menace, north korea last month testing an intercontinental ballistic missile that appeared capable of reaching the american mainland, west coast cities such as los angeles, and even beyond. it's this kind of brinkmanship that's intensified diplomacy at the united nations security council, and led to a deal between the united states and china, north korea's ally, to impose tough new sanctions. this is the most stringent set of sanctions on any country in a generation. these sanctions will cut deep, and in doing so, will give the north korean leadership a taste of the depravation they have chosen to inflict on the north korean people. most of north korea's export trade goes across this border,
6:09 am
into china, and pyongyang could be deprived of roughly a third of its export income, the sanctions hitting its trade in coal, iron and seafood. but they don't limit oil deliveries, a move that would have a crippling effect on the economy, and potentially a collapsing effect on the pyongyang regime. this week, the pentagon conducted its own test of an unarmed intercontinental ballistic missile, proof, it said, that america is ready and able to deter, detect and defend against attacks. last weekend, in another show of force aimed at the leadership in pyongyang, america flew supersonic bombers over the korean peninsula. so far, sanctions have failed, and most intelligence analysts here believe that north korea won't come to the negotiating table until it has proven beyond any doubt that it not only has a missile that could reach the us mainland, but a missile that could be armed with a nuclear warhead. nick bryant, bbc news, at the united nations. meanwhile, foreign ministers from the association of southeast asian nations, asean, are meeting in manila in the philippines to discuss the region's progress on key
6:10 am
initiatives and its stance on critical international issues. there will be representatives of china, russia, south korea, andjapan. north korea's nuclear programme is expected to be a main topic. 0ur correspondent, howard johnson, is in manila for us this morning. we know that the north korean foreign minister is going to be there, rex tillerson will be there. are they likely to meet? yes. rex tillerson is here at the event to date. he will be going around lifted by the sanctions result from the un today. he will be speaking to the different foreign ministers at the asean grouping which is roughly similar to the european union. now, he will be going around speaking to people and asking them to force... it looks
6:11 am
like we have lost the connection. apologies to the reporter, howard. president trump is beginning his 17—day golfing holiday, but his russian counterpart valdimir putin, had more energetic pursuits in mind, for his summer break. the president made a three—day trip to the siberian wilderness, and he's been showing off his fishing, snorkelling and quad biking skills. the top of everyone's holiday list! 0ur moscow correspondent, sarah rainsford, reports. it's russia, it's summer, so it's time for vladimir putin's photo—shoot. and this year, the action—man president went fishing in siberia. it ran for ten minutes on state television. the video footage ran for a full ten minutes on state television. the highlight was the pike—chase. this year, mr putin went underwater with a spear gun. the kremlin says he was hunting his prey for two hours.
6:12 am
"i had to shoot twice," he admits, finally surfacing with his catch. after notching up 17 years in power, russia's leader is a dab hand at such stunts. he once took to the skies as a human crane. he is regularly snapped on his skates. and horseriding is another action—man favourite for the judo black belt. this year, too, it was all about vladimir putin, the macho man, even at 64. the strong leader, ready as ever to stand up to the west. and, never shy of revealing a bit of flesh, mr putin took a moment to flex his muscles in the siberian sunshine. "now that's good fishing," he tells his entourage. he also suggests he is preparing to run for president again next march, despite refusing to confirm it officially. sarah rainsford, bbc news, moscow. is that what your holiday photos
6:13 am
look like? he has a better physique than me. sadly, vladimir putin's holiday pictures have not made the papers. usain bolt and justin gatlin have. that is the picture on the times. the main story, universities ta ke times. the main story, universities take foreign students ahead of british. a drive for higher fees is betraying six formers here. and another picture of usain bolt congratulating justin gatlin. we will get more on that through the morning. many people have been e—mailing and tweeting about it. a disappointment for many. the headline story, the brexit divorce bill. they say the uk wants to get it down to 36 billion pounds. the
6:14 am
telegraph says it is the first time we have heard a specific figure mentioned. the observer. the main story. anne longfield. you will know her. she is the children's commissioner. sometimes she is on the programme. she wants children to stop bingeing social media. she is urging parents to regulate it like junk food. she wants them to do something constructive. some take a draconian approach like i do. good morning. you're watching breakfast from bbc news. the main stories this morning: usain bolt has failed to win his final individual 100 metre race at the world athletics championships. the eight—time 0lympic champion came third. america'sjustin gatlin america's justin gatlin taking america'sjustin gatlin taking gold. the government is launching an independent review into the cost of energy. it comes days after british gas increased electricity prices
6:15 am
by 12.5% for three million customers. also coming up in the programme... we'll meet the welshman who's shocked the running world by making it to the world athletics championships thanks to his first ever marathon result, and we'll see how he's gearing up for his second later today. we need a good news athletics story after last night, i know a lot of people have an issue withjustin gatlin winning yesterday and your thoughts on that please. get in touch via social media this morning. how will the weather be for the third day of the athletics in london and for the rest of the country? good morning, nice to see you. looks like a fresh start to the day, reasonable start in major towns and cities but don't go too far out of town to' is and in rural scotland, the bottom end of single figures so frost on the grass. through the day
6:16 am
we have this weather front coming into the north and west bringing cloud, rain and a breeze but the further south and east you are you will hang on to decent weather for much of the day. a bright start for many places but as the cloud and rain comes in from the west we will see cloud increasing from the west through the day. through the afternoon it will turn wet in scotland, staying driest for longest the further east you are but wet for central and western areas. north—west england will see rain setting in but the north—east of england should stay mostly dry. in northern ireland, a wet morning, brighter by the afternoon but with showers and rain into the western side of wales. cloud in over in the south—west but staying mostly dry and for the midlands, east anglia and for the midlands, east anglia and the south—east, the some sunshine into the afternoon. looking pretty good at the london stadium today, a dry day with temperatures getting into the low 20s through the afternoon with variable cloud. into the evening, that rain is still there or thereabouts, quite wet in
6:17 am
there or thereabouts, quite wet in the north—west of england and into wales, some outbreaks of rain that will be quite heavy and staying driest in the south—east corner, scattered showers to the north and west. 0n scattered showers to the north and west. on monday low pressure firmly in charge and this weather front doesn't move too far too quickly so the rain in the south—west will be heavy and persistent, not a great day here. scattered showers to the north and west. the farsala beast should stay dry and warm. —— far south—west. as we head into tuesday and wednesday, we see this area of low pressure developing to the east and that will bring outbreaks of rain with it and the wind will come down from the north, doesn't look like a pretty picture for early in august. the unsettled theme continues into next week, heavy rain and showers around, quite windy and it will feel on the cool side. thanks very much, not brilliant august weather it has to be said. that is take a break with the film
6:18 am
review. this week they discuss plenty of films. hello and welcome to the film review on bbc news. to take us through this week's cinema releases is james king. hello again. hi. what a funny old week! it certainly is. we have valerian and the city of a thousand planets, a mega budget sci—fi from luc besson starring dane dehaan and cara delevingne. england is mine takes a look at the early years of manchester's answer to oscar wilde, smiths front man morrissey. and to quote the man himself, panic on the streets of london, panic on the streets of birmingham. yes, the emoji movie has been let loose onto an unsuspecting british public. be afraid! 0h, lord! let's start with sci—fi.
6:19 am
that is an odd week! it is august, people! i read that valerian is possibly the most expensive french film ever? most expensive european film of all time. actually, 20 years ago, there was a film called the fifth element which luc besson, the same director, had made which did well. at that point, that was the most expensive european film of all time. now it is valerian, with a budget of $200 million, which could not buy neymar, but it is still a lot of money. it is set in the 28th century. it is about a couple of intergalactic secret agents who are investigating strange goings—on at the alpha space station. cara delevingne and dane dehaan star. let's see. 0k. what's the shortest way there? north—north—east, 113 degrees.
6:20 am
60, 70, 80, 90. that leads me straight into a wall. you said you wanted the shortest way. wow, would i be right in saying you can see the money? well, yeah! you can see the money. but watching it, ijust thought how much has changed in the 20 years since the fifth element. the sci—fi and space movies we have had from people like christopher nolan and jj abrahams with his star trek and star wars movies, and alfonso cuaron and actually, valerian looks expensive, but it looks like an expensive 90s movie.
6:21 am
i don't think it looks as elegant and as chic and certainly not as cerebral as the more recent science fiction films we have seen. it actually looks a bit gaudy. we saw it towards the end of that clip. it looks quite gaudy and camp and dare i say it, quite silly at times. you are allowed to say that! 20 years ago, there was a silliness about the fifth element, but perhaps we were more forgiving. but a lot has changed in that 20 years, so now i am not so sure that luc besson's style, and he does have a very distinctive style, feels so of the moment as it did then. and what do you make of cara delevingne? the big question. everyone wants to know that. well, she's clearly very comfortable in front of a screen. she is arguably the world's most famous model, so she looks completely at home. is she, on the evidence of this movie, the new meryl streep? i don't think so. however, she's very young and there is plenty of time
6:22 am
for her to improve. i think the leads are not the most charismatic. if you see the trailer, you will see rihanna in the trailer a lot. rihanna is not in the movie that much. that is a bit of a cheat on the part of the marketing. i would have liked to have seen her in it more and ethan hawke in it more. they are very much supporting characters. if it just looked really good, cool, iwould have forgiven it these problems. all right. we couldn't have anything more different for our second film, england is mine. this is a biopic of morrissey‘s early years in the run up to him meeting johnny marr and forming the smiths. the title is from a smiths song, still ill. it stars jack lowden, who is in dunkirk as well. you might have seen him in dunkirk. he plays an raf pilot. he is tom hardy's colleague in that movie. very good in dunkirk and very good in this as a young morrissey. the downside is that the first half of the film, morrissey is so painfully shy as a teenager that he is
6:23 am
virtually mute. so you have a film where you really don't know what is going on in his head because he is such an insular character. and the film really is about him coming out of his shell. most interestingly, the women in his life encouraging him to come out of his shell, his family and female friends. do you need to be a fan of the smiths to enjoy it or could this be a coming—of—age film? that is certainly what it's trying to be. there are adrian mole—esque elements of it with the nerdy, shy teenager, but also about if you follow your dreams, then they will come true, which perhaps isn't immediately what you think of when thinking of morrissey, but it is there in the movie. the second half is better. that is when he does come out of his shell and becomes more flamboyant. that's when he becomes more interesting. 0k. it's august, children are not at school.
6:24 am
you take them to the cinema a lot. even watching the trailerfor the emoji movie made my eyes hurt. do you think morrissey has ever used an emoji? signed off a text with a smiley face? i doubt it, somehow. yeah. in terms of plot, the emoji movie is very convoluted. is there a plot? you can sum it up very simply. it is trying to be the lego movie, desperately, which was a couple of years ago and a huge success critically and commercially. it is about this emoji living in a phone in this emoji city which is very uniform and regimented, but he is different. he wants to prove he is different to everyone else and special and doesn't follow the herd. there is actually a ‘meh' face. do you know what a ‘meh' face is? indifferent, the feeling i had when coming out of valerian. so he is a ‘meh' face, but he wants to be more than that. in this clip, we have, i can't believe i am saying this, sir patrick stewart voicing a poop emoji... i can't believe it either! and james corden voicing a high five emoji. let's hear that...
6:25 am
you are smooth. just doing my duty. ha ha! what? what did i say? rocket, look at the party! woohoo! come on, tell me you aren'tjust a little bit tempted. steven, for the last time, i don't want to buy a time share. come on, man, it's high five! you know me, i'm a favourite. it's got to be some sort of mistake. i mean, look at me, i'm an attractive hand giving a high five. fist bump! come on in. hey, ladies. fist bump? he's a knucklehead, literally! look at him. i can look like that! 0w, cramp, huge mistake! ok, i get it, i get it! what age group do you think this is aimed at? young! i would say young and indiscriminating. maybe a first film when you haven't seen anything else. imean... if it were funny...
6:26 am
we would forgive it a lot more and of course, the lego movie, mentioned earlier, was very funny. pixar make funny animations. the level of comedy in animations is very high. but i have read a lot about the cynical nature of it and the product placement. because it is not funny, because you are not laughing, you are looking at the downside, which is that it feels very corporate. even though it is supposedly about an emoji who wants to be an individual, a bit different, actually, what it is selling you are very corporate and mainstream apps and games. so it does feel a bit like an advert as they run around this phone and run to different apps and games. trying to get them young! better children's films are available this summer... i would say so. best out at the moment, the big sick? yes. mentioned this last week. doing very well at the box office, so that is good to see. a romantic comedy about an interracial relationship. also... talking about the smiths... it is also literally about a girlfriend in a coma. the lead female character gets very ill, and it is written by kumail nanjiani and emily gordon. it is their story, the story of how they got together. so even though it is dealing with big
6:27 am
topics, it feels very personal and charming. they are happy to tip their hat to richard curtis and judd apatow, who produced the film. i like romantic comedies when they are done well. we are often a bit down on them as a genre, but when done well, they are incredibly charming. i am pleased that they are celebrating how good romantic comedies can be. perhaps why it's doing well! if you want to sit on the sofa instead, what is your recommendation? free fire, from ben wheatley, co—written with his regular partner. he works across different genres, comedy and crime and dystopian sci—fi, but actually in all of his movies, there is this great feeling that things are about to go pear—shaped. things are about to kick off, literally in this film, because it is about a meeting in the ‘70s in this disused warehouse in boston that goes wrong. it is a meeting between gangsters and arms dealers, and it is very tense and nerve—wracking and then the free fire of the title kicks in. it is notjust a shoot
6:28 am
‘em up, though. there are great actors in this. brie larson, cillian murphy. it harks back to gutsy ‘70s action films. martin scorsese actually is the executive producer of this film and it does have that gutsy, dirty feel about it that we had in the 70s. james, thanks very much. see you next week! thank you very much indeed. that's it for this week. enjoy your cinema going if you can. as we said, quite a varied bunch. see you next time. bye bye. hello. good morning. this is breakfast, with rogerjohnson and rachel burden. coming up before seven, we'll have the weather for you. but first, a summary of this
6:29 am
morning's main news. the man said to be the world's greatest ever sprinter, usain bolt, has failed to win his last individual 100—metre race at the world athletics championships in london. bolt is retiring, after a career which saw him win 11 world titles and eight olympic gold medals. he finished third, behind americans, justin gatlin and christian coleman. gatlin has twice served doping bans. an independent review into the cost of energy is being launched by the government, just days after british gas raised standard electricity prices by 12.5%. the business secretary, greg clark, says the report will examine how prices can be kept as low as possible while ensuring the uk still meets its climate change targets. italian police have arrested a polish man accused of kidnapping and drugging a british model as she arrived for a photo—shoot. the 20—year—old woman was attacked by two men and held captive for six days. it's alleged they threatened to hold an on—line auction for her unless a ransom was paid. 30—year—old, lukasz pawel herba, who lives in britain, has been arrested on suspicion of kidnap and extortion. schools must stop trying "to wrap children in cotton wool" because it
6:30 am
leaves them ill—prepared for the challenges of later life. that's the view of the chief inspector of schools. 0fsted's amanda spielman says over the top health and safety rules stop children developing resilience and wants new guidance for schools in england. meanwhile, the children's commissioner for england says parents need to regulate their children's social media use the same way they would with fast food. anne longfield said parents need be proactive in stopping their children from bingeing on the internet over the summer holidays. children aged five to 15 are spending 15 hours a week on the internet, according to 0fcom. belgian officials have admitted they knew that eggs from dutch farms might be contaminated with an insecticide a month before the issue became public. belgium's food safety agency said it had kept quiet because of an ongoing fraud investigation. shops in belgium, the netherlands and germany, have removed the eggs from sale. tough new sanctions will be imposed on north korea
6:31 am
following the country's recent intercontinental ballistic missile tests. the un voted unanimously for the resolution to ban some north korean exports, like iron, coal, and lead, and to limit investments in the country. pyongyang has been under un sanctions for almost a decade, but refuses to end its nuclear programmes. the us secretary of state rex tillerson will meet his korean, russian, and chinese counterparts at the summit of the association of southeast asian nations in manila today. mr tillerson willjoin talks about north korea's weapons programme, which is expected to be one of the main topics. last week the us claimed that china was not doing enough to stop north korea's nuclear ambitions. i don't know if you stayed up for this last night. history was made last night as usain bolt made his final individual appearance
6:32 am
at a major championships. but it wasn't the fairy tale end to his glittering career that may were hoping for. jess is at the london stadium for us this morning. i think everyone at home was watching. good morning. the morning after the night before. very much so. no one expected what happened last night to have happened. a sensational night of athletics. full capacity in the crowd. so many people waiting in excitement and anticipation. they thought they were coming to see a happy ending to a fairy tale careerfor coming to see a happy ending to a fairy tale career for usain bolt. but then justin gatlin ripped fairy tale career for usain bolt. but thenjustin gatlin ripped up the script. there was deafening noise as the race was ongoing. and then people thought justin gatlin the race was ongoing. and then
6:33 am
people thoughtjustin gatlin had won the race. it was deathly silent. and then everyone realised he had won. and then there were booes all around. we are so used to seeing usain bolt in the last 20—30 metres ofa usain bolt in the last 20—30 metres of a race powering past his opponent. hejust had not enough stea m opponent. hejust had not enough steam at that point. he ran out of stea m. steam at that point. he ran out of steam. in fact, steam at that point. he ran out of steam. infact, it steam at that point. he ran out of steam. in fact, it wasjustin gatlin, who was twice banned for doping, finishing strongly to take the title. it was his fellow american, christian common, who got silver. —— coleman. american, christian common, who got silver. -- coleman. it is killing me. normally, iwould get silver. -- coleman. it is killing me. normally, i would get better turnarounds, but me. normally, i would get better turna rounds, but it me. normally, i would get better turnarounds, but it didn't come together. that is what killed me. i felt like it was there. do you know what i mean? i did not get it. that
6:34 am
is why i lost. it is one of those things. how are you managing the emotion? your last individual race ina emotion? your last individual race in a championship? it was rough, do you know what i mean? a championship. i did my best. you know what i mean? a championship. i did my bestm you know what i mean? a championship. i did my best. it is a surreal moment. i thought of all the things i would do if i did win and i did none of that. it was almost like 2004 all over again. i got a victory bya 2004 all over again. i got a victory by a little margin and just got across the line with that excitement. it is amazing. usain bolt‘s last race. so many victories in so many losses. to run against him all of those years... yeah. so, not the golden goodbye that bolt wanted. many of his family and friends had travelled over from jamaica to see his final individual race, he races again in the 4x100 relay next weekend of course.
6:35 am
afterwards, his dad reflected on his son's performance. iama i am a little bit sad. but, of course, it happens sometimes. i was doubtful he would win the race. but finishing third, ijust have to accept the result. on reflection, would it have been better to retire after rio? not really. i was trying to persuade him to go for one more year. he was telling me it is time to go. elsewhere, british eyes on the track were focussed on laura muir who was running in the semi finals of the women's 1,500 metres. she comfortably qualified for the final. she came in second behind faith kipyegon. laura weightman also made it through her semi—final. it was really surprising. i thought really good. yeah, the 1500 is
6:36 am
scrappy. i just wanted really good. yeah, the 1500 is scrappy. ijust wanted to get that final and scrappy. ijust wanted to get that finalandi scrappy. ijust wanted to get that final and i have done that now. katarina johnson—thompson has work to do today to get a medal in the heptathlon. an impressive run in the 200 metres lifted her back up to fourth in the standings, and helped to repair some of the damage done after a poor high jump earlier in the day. iam not i am not going to lie, it was very hard. there was a lot of crying. it was only event two. last year, after getting 1.98 in thejumping, i'm not going to let that happen again. england are on top heading into day three of the fourth test against south africa at old trafford.
6:37 am
jonny bairstow smashed 99 for england as they posted 362 in theirfirst innings. in reply, james anderson took four wickets on his home ground to help reduce the touring side to 220 for nine in reply. it was nice to stick around with jonny bairstow for a bit. it was good to get to three figures. a fantastic knock. getting to 360, it isa fantastic knock. getting to 360, it is a competitive score. myjob is to ta ke is a competitive score. myjob is to take wickets. it is always nice to get a cluster. does three wickets after tea were key for the team. —— those. leigh griffiths scored the 200th goal of his club career as celtic started the defence of their scottish premiership title with a 4—1win over hearts. elsewhere, hibernian marked their return to the premiership with victory over partick thistle. ross county and st johnstone also won. john terry captained aston villa on his debut in the championship yesterday but couldn't help them to three points against hull city. jarrod bowen scored the second half equaliser in a 1—all draw.
6:38 am
south korea's kim has a comfortable lead after three rounds of the women's british open at kingsbarns in fife. she starts the day on 17—under—par, six shots clear of england's georgia hall who is tied for second. asi as i said, a sensational night of athletics here. don't worry, we will see more of usain bolt as he goes in the 4x100 metres. he normally does not run in the heat, but he will end this occasion. we will get to see another 10—20 seconds of him. this occasion. we will get to see another 10—20 seconds of himm this occasion. we will get to see another 10-20 seconds of him. it was extraordinary last night. the sounds and the stadium. that silence. beaten by two americans as well. christian coleman was second. a lot

of response. dave says i know it is wrong, but gatlin has mental strength. this person says usain bolt cannot be great everything. and this person says he has done so much, he hasn't lost anything. making it to the athletics world championships marathon finals is a huge achievement but perhaps even more so if you've only ever run one marathon before. 23—year—old, josh griffiths, secured his place in today's race with his london marathon result and he's hoping to shock the running world once more and make wales proud. and he won't be the country's only chance of success, as tomos dafydd reports. 0ne one of them has no coach, the

other‘s training partner is his dog. meet the welsh marathon man aiming to ta ke meet the welsh marathon man aiming to take on the world. josh griffiths shocked the sport and himself, finishing 13th in the london marathon. the first brit home. a com plete marathon. the first brit home. a complete unknown pushed into the limelight. it was a shock. after the first two weeks it sunk in a little bit what i had achieved. i did not have much time to think about it before training. the london marathon was all about time. sunday will be all about position. the 23—year—old has a masters in sports coaching and he has not changed his training regime too much. more people try to make it more complicated than it needs to be. you just need to get out there and run. it is not much more than that. why look for one person gains when you can just train more? and a former footballer came to the sport late. newtown is his training ground. the 28—year—old has
6:41 am
climbed more than 1000 feet this airline. it makes you more stronger mentally being out on your own. it is nice to get off the roads and see mentally being out on your own. it is nice 1 foret off the r i ads and see mentally being out on your own. it is nice 1 foret off the r i ads . a d see mentally being out on your own. it is nice 1 foret off the r i ads . a snake ffi— won‘t see one of 3‘2 won't see one of them yesterday. you won't see one of them in london. always by his side, his canine companion, scrappy, an unusual training partner. canine companion, scrappy, an unusualtraining partner. it is a jack russell terrier. a nice training partner. she likes chasing sheep so i have to keep her on the lead. it will be his second ever marathon. but he might get a surprise result on the biggest stage. we wish them both well. the dog could be a contender. we have already had the weather. it looks grim in the uk. by parts of europe
6:42 am
have been sweltering due to an unprecedented heatwave due to continue well into next week. we report on towns and cities in sicily turning into ghost towns as locals and tourists tried to cope with the heat. this is something else, isn't it? sicily. it is like a postcard. when you sent bbc correspondence here, it looks amazing. but even the italians say it is too hot. we have had five days of scorching temperatures, 10 degrees more than it usually is at this time of year. it has been 44 degrees in the sun and 41 in the shade. the bbc crew were the only ones brave enough to be out here. to give you a sense of what it is like in and around sicily, the balkans, hungary, parts of spain, cordova, it
6:43 am
is so bad that the government have said tourists, locals, they should spend time indoors in the afternoon because of a threat to public health. that means you are either indoors or are making use of the pool is. what you are seeing in places usually full of people, they have turned into ghost towns. the cities, the squares, i have never seen anything like it. the sun is just coming in and it is around now that people start to re—emerge. late next week, it will go back to normal temperatures. but we have got intense heat like this for some time to come. that is a tough gig, isn't it?|j would not want to go there in that weather. not with that heat. it is too much. we will have more weather later. more comments in a second. the front pages. we did some
6:44 am
broadsheets earlier. the sunday express. speaking of holidays. prince harry is away on holiday at the moment. the perfect time to propose. who knows? that should have a? at the end of it. a slightly made up story. a couple of weeks on justin it. a slightly made up story. a couple of weeks onjustin gatlin beating usain bolt, he failed two drugs tests, i don't know if this is when it changes your mind but his first was when he was running in the junior championships and it was a tiny bit of amphetamine for a didi and the authorities took that into account and his band at that stage was only a year. his second band came laterfrom was only a year. his second band came later from some sort of testosterone type su bsta nce came later from some sort of testosterone type substance —— ban. 0ne testosterone type substance —— ban. one is unfortunate. he always claimed he was set up. that is his
6:45 am
position so that's all i'm saying. why would you want your kids taking pa rt why would you want your kids taking part in athletics? it's an awful example for young athletes, one viewer says, i hope he gets booed through the ceremony, even the anthems. 0ther through the ceremony, even the anthems. other people have said the boeing is disgraceful. he showed respect to usain bolt. usain bolt said he didn't deserve the blues, that was his reaction when he spoke to warren gatland. who says cheats never prosper? —— justin gatlin. why is no one talking about the phablets run by the wales manager chris coleman. christian coleman of course came second —— fabulous run. a very bright prospect and i'm sure we will see more of him. now it's time for click and this week spencer kelly shines a light on the possibility of capturing
6:46 am
the sun's energy on the road to charge electric vehicles. they're ugly, huge and they ruin the landscape, but we do kind of need them to get from a to b. but sometimes a road can be more than just a road. and that's the idea behind a french government backed initiative using the massive space given over to the transport network to also capture the sun through solar roads. i mean, look at this road, what's it doing right now,
6:47 am
it's looking straight up the sky. and its estimated that even busy roads can see the sky for 70—90% of the time. but it's not all plain... sunning. the problem with putting photovoltaic cells into roads is the slightest bit of pressure, the slightest bend, and... so the cells are stuck onto slabs and covered with crushed glass and a translucent resin. at the facility near versailles, in france, these seven millimetre thick panels are being tested for their strength and durability so they can withstand heavy traffic as well as ensuring that they aren't slippery. we have the cell and on each face we added polymer to increase the stiffness and the durability of the cells itself. so do they bend or are theyjust resistant to bending? yes, of course they bend, butjust a little bit. so it resist. the costs, though, are proving high. although the panels can be laid over existing roads, this one—kilometre stretch in normandy covering 2,800 square
6:48 am
metres came in at 5 million euros. that's an estimated 4—6 times the price of covering the area with conventional solar panels. currently, yes, of course the cost is quite high. the aim is to divide by three the current cost. it will be within at least one year. after concerning the interest it's really a political approach. critics have questions about the viability of panels on busy roads and the efficiency of laying panels down flat on the road surface. the angle or the tilt angle of the panels will also influence the efficiency. if we have them lying on the floor, on the road, then we are influencing the tilt angle. one possible advantage of having the panels flat on the ground is that in the future they could be used to charge electric vehicles as they move along the road. and charging vehicles as they move is another idea on the horizon.
6:49 am
developed by qualcomm technologies, this 100—metre stretch of dynamically charging road is also being trialled in versailles. i do like the idea that although the road networks have obviously been a major source of the planet's pollution problems, they could also be, in the future, one of the solutions to the planet's energy crisis. and with the uk government phasing out diesel and petrol vehicles, renewable transport solutions like this mightjust be the ticket. stationery induction charging works like wirelessly charged phones, producing a magnetic field that's converted to dc power. though this technology has been with us for a while, dynamic roads are an exciting development. how accurately do you have to park this thing so the two pads are aligned? at the moment we're talking about an area the size of about a dinner plate, as long as that's aligned on both sides you should be able to send the charge through that. you have a line of these on a road
6:50 am
and you simply connect them all up and that would effectively give you a charging road. as long as the car was obviously aligned with that, and the technology was all linked and synced up, the car could actually charge while it's driving along using exactly the same principles and technology. critics though worry about the infrastructure cost of dynamically charging roads. 0thers point to the rapid developments in electric vehicle battery capacity that may remove the need for electric cars to charge while on the move. but if solar roads can be made cheaply enough and withstand heavy traffic, this could be one to watch in the not too distant future. hello and welcome to the week in tech. it was the week that the script for an unseen episode of game of thrones, as well as those from other hbo shows, was leaked online by a group of hackers. an new version of bitcoin was mined for the first time as the crypto currency split into two. and the us navy's launched its first fighter jet powered by electromagnetic energy.
6:51 am
the high—tech, high speed, hyperloop one has completed its first journey. a test that propelled this pod through a tube in the nevada desert at 192 mph, edging closer to its eventual aim of one day transporting passengers at speeds of up to 650 mph. meanwhile a security researcher managed to hack an amazon echo, making it possible to remotely stream audio from someone's device. the attack could only work on pre—2017 versions though, and physical access to the echo is needed first. and finally the team behind the hand—held spray printer painting device, which we showed you a couple of months ago, have developed a robotic version that made it possible to paint this giant masterpiece on an abandoned power station, using five different colours at once. the sky's the limit. i'm scott helm, here to give you a 101 to black hat,
6:52 am
bsides and def con, which all happen during one crazy week in las vegas. this is a very, very popular course, we've got some of the latest stuff that we've found in our own hacking that we do for clients and we put it into the class. the good guys have got to learn it because the bad guys already do. i've embedded some code into the page and then when you load the page it puts that message up, that it's not supposed to do. it was a nice introductory level course. so obviously this could be used for harm and the flip side of this is, if you were setting up to be a cybercriminal would you come to a formal conference like this and register to do a training course under your name? or would you go and learn how to do this on the dark web somewhere else?
6:53 am
i don't think we would really expect to see criminals coming here to learn how to be criminals. so we are in the vendor hall right now. this is where all the different companies have their stands, they can demo their products. this represents what they do inside your network, in that an attacker now doesn't know where the real target is and which one to attack. i don't know where to look. tell me if i'm doing it wrong. this in the front? hang on, waita minute... one, two, three, go! top three tips? we're in the desert, drink plenty of water. get a goodie bag and fill it with swag. and don't use the wi—fi. so we've just checked in b—sides, i have my bag, everyone that attends the conference gets a little bag of goodies so we're just going to take a look. got a few stickers here, the little hawaiian necklaces, a bsides beach towel. it's very corporate, it's very kind of official and formal. this is like a much more relaxed setting, it's much more enjoyable. the opening key note is taking
6:54 am
placejust behind me, and we're going to go and take a look around the vendors around the outside of the chill out room. scott, what did you just do? so, the wi—fi network is here is monitored, and the screen behind me shows you things that people are doing on the network. so we managed to just get the bbc click logo and rory up on the big screen. this is a tool called a doppler. the whole idea is it's analysing the network, and then carving out images real time, and displaying them up for everybody to see. so anything that anybody is looking at on the network, we can see as well. i found some friends. i found some ex—colleagues of mine from england. so which talks are you going to? i'm going to the banking on insecurity nets, which you are banned from. as members of the press. yes, so being members of the press at bsides, we can't go into the underground track, which is no press, no filming.
6:55 am
most people don't even use their real names in the schedule, and unfortunately we're banned, we can't go in there. it's like a party in here. i can't hear anything. it's a tech conference, it's a hacker conference. people often think it might be less sociable, but this is where most of us do our networking. we're in the middle of filming and somebody has just hacked the pa system in the hotel. yes. thank you. we made it, we got one. effectively, this badge is like a tiny computer, and i can make it do like really cool stuff. flames. yeah, we have come to the chill out zone just to take a little break. i bumped into an old work colleague and friend of mine, andy. he's a goon here, at def con this year. most people probably won't know what being a goon is, so... so being a goon is basically the enforcement of fun. so we were walking the corridors earlier today, and we heard some numbers being thrown around,
6:56 am
in the region of 50—60,000 attacks a day are launched against the def con network, is that accurate? it's what you would expect of a hacking conference's network. there's no official challenge, but hackers going to hack. federal agents attend the conference dressed in plain clothing. there's 30,000 people here. it's easy for them to blend in, and there's a running competition every year to try and spot and identify federal agents. my guesses would be they're looking out for people they may need to keep an eye on, and the other side of that is talent acquisition. so we were watching somebody get their first implant. are you nervous? yes, a little bit. i'm kind of wondering, how much it will hurt. oh, that felt weird! i am going for the nfc chip. i'm going to apply a little bit of pressure. it was literally like something poking around inside my hand.
6:57 am
my front door lock at home, i'm going to replace it with an nfc lock, and it will sense the chip in my hand and unlock my door forjust me. when you're at def con, you just never know what is going to happen next, it could be a complete surprise. that's additive in las vegas, dealing with some of the darker realms of cybersecurity. you will find more on privacy, security, and hacking on our website and social media as part of bbc‘s cyber hacks season. that is the short version of click for this week. the full version is online. thank you for watching and we will see you soon. hello. good morning. this is breakfast, with rogerjohnson and rachel burden. bolt bows out with bronze. the greatest sprinter of all time fails to secure a 20th global gold as he prepares to exit the world stage for the last time. it's just one of those things. you know what i mean? i can't say much. i just didn't execute when it matters. so, here at the london stadium, it was bronze for bolt, gold for gatlin. the controversial american stunned the crowd by taking the title. and he paid his own tribute to his great rival, bolt.
