i was quite shocked to discover a woman's face looking at me, and not chancellor maitland's. my first thought was, am i developing the wrong plate? and then the more i looked at it, the more i realised that it was the right plate, and that it was a portrait of a woman from the period. then i realised, having grown up in scotland, that i thought it was mary, queen of scots. i was so excited that i ran up three flights of stairs to show it to my mentor. mary, queen of scots was forced to abdicate in 1567. a year later she fled to england, where she was imprisoned by her cousin, elizabeth, until her execution. perhaps this yields a clue as to why she was painted over. the fact we have to think about is mary's execution. so, the inscribed date on this portrait is 1589, and mary was executed in 1587. to have openly displayed a portrait of mary would have been quite a dangerous decision. this detective work has unveiled a secret hidden for centuries, now open to all. time for a look at the weather.

here's ben rich. today we have got some sunshine but the trade—off was that it was a fairly chilly start this morning. tomorrow will be different. it will be milderfor most, but there tomorrow will be different. it will be milder for most, but there will be milder for most, but there will bea be milder for most, but there will be a lot more cloud and a strong breeze. on sunday it is different again, the sunshine returning but particularly in the north feeling quite a lot colder. on the satellite picture you can see it is a beautiful day out there today. we had some fog patches in certain areas but most of that has now cleared. generally speaking it is an afternoon of long sunny spells, with temperatures not too down on where they were yesterday. now, during this evening and overnight, we will keep some clear trumps for central and south eastern areas but a change

in the north—west as we start to pick up these westerly winds bringing more cloud to scotland and northern ireland and north—west england and it will be turning quite misty and murky. it means we start the day on a mild note, 13 degrees in inverness at nine o'clock in the morning. some brightness for eastern scotland, however. to the east of the pennines, some spells of sunshine again. but watch out here foran sunshine again. but watch out here for an increasingly gusty wind through the day. not a bad start for the midlands, east anglia and the south—east of england, some sunny breaks. but more cloud than today. those cloudy conditions will extend across all areas exposed to this westerly breeze. it will be breezy everywhere, particularly for the hills of northern england and south—eastern scotland, and to the east of high ground, the winds will be quite gusty. the best of any sunshine will be in eastern and south eastern areas. always the risk of some patchy rain to the far north—west. temperatures on the face

of ita north—west. temperatures on the face of it a little bit milder. but that will not last. by the time we get to sunday we've got cold air from the arctic which will be making its presence felt especially in northern and eastern areas. some showers coming to northern and eastern coasts, some of them wintry in the far north. things should be brightening up in the south—west, but look at that, just 9 degrees in aberdeen. and a quick reminder, the clocks go back an hour during saturday night. that is it from us. on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc news teams where you are. australia underlining why they are the world's best with an 18

points to four victory over england in the opening match of the rugby league world cup. there was another setback for the visitors, sam burgess picking up an injury which will rule him out for three to four weeks, the england camp have confirmed. kevin sinfield, part of the bbc‘s coverage this morning, and watched the match. they made the best possible opening. we started well, it was going to be a difficult task facing australia first game out. we know how incredible they have been for a number of year, so... this was great. great try from gerry, a great start for us, i think, you great. great try from gerry, a great start for us, ithink, you know, to be in this position, after sort of six or eight minute was fantastic, so delighted with the start. then there was that australian pressure which told, and they capitalised, two tries in the first half to lead 10-4 at two tries in the first half to lead 10—4 at the break. this break away

try in the second half which sealed the victory. it's a simple game by the victory. it's a simple game rugby league, for a spell we didn't create nuffield position and possession for ourselves and we made some errors and we were made to pay the price, we went in 10—11. the second half we created opportunity, the last time we played australia we lost 36—18 and we have improved massively since this time last year, we we re massively since this time last year, we were l grow in this tournament. i am buoyed and happy with our second half performance in particular, we are always going to get better. half performance in particular, we are always going to get battenm shouldn't hamper england too much, they should still make knock out stages. the injury to sam burgess suggest he is going to be out for three to four weeks but back for the semifinals. we lost sam towards the back end of the first half. we

played a full second half without him we know what a big play her her for us, a great player, but phenomenal on the field. we played that second half without him and played brilliant rugby league, so, all is not lost, look, we are disappointed to lose him for a couple of weeks, but if we can progress through we have tough games against lebanon and france over the coming week, if we can get to that stage and sammy is there or thanes, we have a quarterfinal and a semifinal and hopefully a final against australia. many thanks indeed. it is worth pointing out scotla nd indeed. it is worth pointing out scotland and wales and ireland also feature in the re—world cup. wales get their campaign under way tomorrow. tottenham striker harry kane will miss tomorrow's premier league match with manchester united with a hamstring injury. kane scored twice as spurs beat liverpool 4—1 last sunday, but had to be substituted late in the game. manager mauricio pochettino called it a minor hamstring strain, enough though to keep the premier league's leading goal—scorer out as second placed united face third placed spurs. as test captainjoe root prepares

for the start of the ashes series without all rounder ben stokes, he insists senior players will not need monitoring whilst away on tour. stokes is staying at home, he wasn't selected for the touring party after an incident outside a bristol nightclub. i don't think there is a drinking cull thur in collict, in our side. think we will address the issue as a side and make sure that, you know, situations like this don't happen again, and of course, no—one wants that, but, you know, we are grown men, we know how to behave and we will make sure we conduct ourselves well on this tour. will make sure we conduct ourselves well on this tour. it's obviously disappointing that ben's not going to be with us, but we are a strong squad. what it does is it gives other guys opportunities to stand up, to put their stamp on test cricket. it gives them a chance to come into the team and do something special, and really strengthen the depth

of our squad when ben is ready to come back and play. that's all the sport for now. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website. i'll have more for you in the next hour. tu re ture in collict, in our side. think we will address the issue as a side and make sure that, you know, situations like this don't happen again, and of course, no—one wants that, but, you know, we are grown men, we know how to behave and we will make sure we conduct ourselves well on this tour. grntion you are watching bbc news, plenty more coming up in the next half hour, including the business newsings, before that a few more stories for you. before that a few more stories for you. a radical new anti—violence project based in scotland has helped more than 500 people since it was launched less than two years ago. the scheme, run by police scotland's violence reduction unit, has staff at hospitals in glasgow and edinburgh, but could spread elsewhere, if it can be shown to be cost effective. james shaw reports. chef, can you show me how to do the fishcakes today? callum hutchison has changed.

over the last nine months he has given up drink and drugs, and begun work as a trainee chef. back in january, things were very different. he was trapped in a lifestyle that revolved around gangs and territorial violence. i was coming home, i was under the influence, and i was outside my door, and i was stabbed nine times in the back and a hatchet was struck over my head and i was left for dead. my son was at my window and he seen the full thing. my son's seven years of age. and this was just another day in the life for me. that night, in accident & emergency at glasgow royal infirmary, callum was approached by two people who were not doctors the or nurses. they were navigators, part of a project to help people escape from violent lifestyles. i wanted to stop coming in and out of accident and emergency with knife wounds and other assaults to me. i wanted to stop going in and out of prison, but i didn't know how

i could change that. they said they knew. they could help me. over the next nine months, callum's navigator, alan gilmore, helped him to stop drinking, find somewhere to live and get a job. it's been a remarkablejourney, i have to say, in such a short space of time for him to have changed so drastically, in a positive way. it's been inspiring. callum realised at the right time that this was a chance — perhaps the only one he would get — to turn his life round. there's no question the navigator scheme has saved lives here in glasgow, and also in edinburgh, but could it have wider benefits? dr christine goodall from a group called medics against violence, is a supporter of the navigator scheme. in terms of callum, he hasn't been back at the emergency department since he met the navigators. he is now in work, he has stopped

drinking, and potentially the cost savings there are tens of thousands of pounds. and that is just one person. the navigator scheme may not grow quickly. the concern is that that could harm its effectiveness. but their hope is that eventually there could be small teams in every major emergency department in scotland. james shaw, bbc news, glasgow. as the global threat of antibiotic resistance continues to grow, steps are being taken to reduce the unnecessary use of these vital drugs — both by people and in animals. later this morning, the department for environment, food and rural affairs will publish a report showing sales of antibiotics for use in animals in the uk have fallen to their lowest level since records began in 1993. fiona lamdin has more on the progress that's been made. cats hill farm in west wiltshire, a cow creche for 350 calves. we change the teats on the machines every morning and every evening. we take them out and clean them and put them in a pot

of disinfectant solution. and just as you'd expect with a child's nursery, with so many young calves living in one barn, bugs are rife here. this process has really dropped antibiotic usage by about 50% across the calf group in here. it's just stopping the spread of disease through the teats, with all the calves coming in all the time drinking and spreading germs. jo's not unique, but her farming is progressive. taking steps to ensure her animals don't get ill. but when it gets cold, smaller calves like this one are much more prone to getting poorly, and so they end up on antibiotics. so now, they're keeping them warm so they stay healthy in the first place. and just in case that wasn't enough, on the outside she has even installed blinds. we get a lot of ground level draught so we need to keep that away from the calves, because itjust causes environmental stress for them and chills them down

and can lead to pneumonia, and therefore, antibiotic use. antibiotics on this farm are now only used when an animal is very ill. three years ago, when we would have had batches of calves come in, they would have all been on antibiotic treatment, now we're just treating on case by case. so this week i have only got two animals on antibiotics. last week, it was only six. and over in somerset, bristol university is researching the global impact antibiotics have on livestock. sheep, cattle, pigs, poultry, any livestock, any animal for that matter is susceptible to disease just like we are. using antibiotics to boost growth was banned by the eu over a decade ago. so farmers are now only using them to either treat or prevent disease. it's really important that we use less antibiotics, because wherever we use antibiotics, bacteria can become resistant and those bacteria might cause disease, either in animals or people. but it's notjust down to the agricultural world. here in the uk, it's us humans which are consuming well over

half of all antibiotics. compared with just 37% used to treat animals. today, though, the spotlight is firmly on the farming community and the message is clear — with no new antibiotics being developed, less really is best. the bbc has been given exclusive access to a pioneering new project that aims to get young people with life—limiting conditions to express their emotions and opinions. run by the university of sheffield it uses art to document the lives, fears and dreams of those taking part. graham satchell has been to meet some of them. so on one side, there were good words and on the other side, there were bad words. can you remember what words did you do for good? legends.

legend. who is a legend? you say. me! the bad words, it's actually very heartbreaking. i got bullied non—stop. i got called a baldy freak. i was thinking, "why do people hate me?" what would you say to those people who call stupid names? i've had enough. so by putting an extra little ingredient in, it means that that can bubble up to the top and that gives us a chance to talk about all the things that maybe we haven't done and we would like to do and what those bubbles meant to us. the project focuses on the lives

of disabled young people. we are using art as methods for the project. it's a way we found for new stories of disability to be told. when they asked me who my hero was, i said my mum because i love her so much and she's so caring to me. oh, thank you. quite often we think of disabled young people's lives as lacking play, lacking fun, tragic, but actually what we've learnt through working with young people is that they are really vibrant and dynamic and have lots of hopes for the future. and dynamic and have so we're thinking about aspiration and hopes as well as part of the project. can i ask you what it is that you want to do in the future? yeah, movie maker. you want to make movies?

yeah. my biggest dream is to work in apple hq in cupertino, california because i'm apple crazy. what kind of movies? horrors! laughter. i still have my own dreams that i'm still looking to achieve. ok, just face forward. we need to listen to young disabled people a lot more than we do, i think. young disabled certainly need a voice and to hope and dream like anybody else. news, before that a few more stories for you. first the headlines. nhs has written to the —— nicola

sturgeon has written to the prime minister to tell her that no brexit is better than no deal. a minister has blamed north korea for the cyber attack which crippled parts of the nhs in may. the uk's competition watchdog say they plan to look into clarity, accuracy and presentation of information. 70% of people who shop around for accommodation use hotel booking sites. the investigation will examine hidden charges, search results, and discount claims. royal bank of scotland has said it is "on track" after seeing a £392m profit for the july—to—september period. it's only the second time in almost ten years that the bank has turned a profit for three quarters in a row. but they can't be sure of a full—year profit, because of penalties that will arise from a dispute with the us department ofjustice over claims that rbs mis—sold mortgage bonds leading up to the 2008 banking crisis. tech giants amazon and google's

parent alphabet have posted a surge in sales over the last three months. shares in alphabetjumped after the company reported sales up 24%. amazon sales are up 34% and analysts now estimate that this year amazon will be responsible for almost half of everything sold online. welcome to the business news. it has been a busy week for bank, several have reported their financial results for the quarter. we will look at these closer with banking a nalyst look at these closer with banking analyst francis. frances coppola is an independent banking analyst. rbs, a mile step to for them? yes it is really nice for them to report some good results for a change, isn't it. let us hope that is the start of them turning the corner and on the road to recovery now, because

it has been a very long—haul for them. how sustainable do you think this is? they still have a couple of head winds, they still have the mortgage backed securities mis—selling suit in america, and as we have seen with other banks the fines can be high. they have the investigation which hasn't quite died yet. so, assuming that the uk economy continues to hold up and there are questions about that, with there are questions about that, with the collapse in retail sales and people's wages squeezed by inflation, maybe we can continue to hope for better resultses that the future. so, barclays reported yesterday as well. first glance, the profits look healthy but the share price fell because investment banking isn't too doing too well. that is is right. their dilemma they

have the cards franchise, and that have the cards franchise, and that have investment bank, globally was hit very badly, it its fixed income division was is bond sale, bond sales and purchases was hit very badly this year and barclays has suffered a decline in income because of that. you could say that is a blip, it will sort itself out, but the real problem for barclays is it up the real problem for barclays is it up against very big players in america, at the moment, it is not actually competing too well with them, it is looking small and weak compared to themle. so there is a question mark over the sustainability of its investment banking strategy. you mention there that consumer confidence is a big factor here with banks, we have inflation high, inflation rates might go up. quantitative easing, we heard from the european central bank, they are going to be rolling back their programme there, how will

these play into a success of banks in the next 12 months. bizarrely raising interest rates if it is done slowly and carefully could benefit bankers because their problem is they make money on this spread between lending and the amount they pay to depositer, depositers rates have been on the floor, compared to the kind of rates we have seen on ordinary fairly low risk lending, that difference is small, is squeezed, so for banks it would be a goodidea squeezed, so for banks it would be a good idea to raise rates because then they can start, they can start to improve their profit margins. that might come early next week. we will speak to you then, thank you frances. in other business news... more of us are declaring ourselves insolvent — according to figures from the office for national statistics. they say more than 25,000 individuals were declared insolvent in england and wales in the three months to the end of september — that includes bankruptcies, debt relief orders and individual voluntary arrangements which have reached a record high. more compliance issues forjapanese companies —

following a similar revelation by nissan, subaru has said it too has failed to follow proper inspection procedures for vehicles destined for the domestic market for more than 30 years. and bye bye buy — it's the end of an era for the hong kong stock exchange as the trading floor closes after 31 years of buy and sell. once the floor was home to more than a thousand traders — recentlyjust a handful used it as electronic and internet trading changed the industry irrevocably. let's look at the markets — we have the all ordinaries, brent crude has taken a knocking, and that is slightly down. that is it from me, i am and that is slightly down. that is it from me, iam back in and that is slightly down. that is it from me, i am back in an hour. manufacture the winner of the royal institute of british architects' most prestigious award — the stirling prize — will be announced next tuesday.

the nominations to become britain's best new building 2017 include a new college campus in glasgow, a london housing development and a photographer's studio. today, we take a look at hastings pier which has been redeveloped after it was almost completely destroyed by fire in 2010. the trust wanted to reconstruct the pier, but everybody knew it could not be a copy of what it was, no sense in trying to reconstruct it as a 19th century pier. that has gone with the fire. so there was an opportunity to reuse, reinvent the pier and give it a new future. one of the things that makes this project special is the lack of buildings. you expect a private pier covered in stuff, for which you will charge money. instead, you have a free space, and no buildings. one of the things that makes

this project special is the lack of buildings. you expect a private pier covered in stuff, for which you will charge money. instead, you have a free space, and no buildings. when talking with the population of hastings, it has to be all things to all people. what made it special was actually the fact we were able to make simply a platform for events and experience, and for temporary structures. it's a privilege to be able to be on the pier, it was so nearly lost. my daughter was six when it first closed. she was ten when it burned down, now she is 17. this is a project for the future generation, and i am so proud we did it as a town, as a community, and that it is in community ownership now and it will be forever. the winner of the royal institute

of british architects' most prestigious award — the stirling prize — will be announced next tuesday. before i leave you with a look at the weather, to tell you this the scene in barcelona at the moment. we are, of course, following all the developments in spain, as the cata la n developments in spain, as the catalan parliament pushes for independence, we think that vote is coming up soon. we are live there, more on that from 2.00. we will pause briefly, we will catch up we will pause briefly, we will catch up with the weather, here is ben. thank you. good afternoon. it is a

many, and we bring in some cold air, all the way from the arctic, it will be felt most keenly up towards the north and the north east, where we will have a strong wind. showers close to the coast and some of the showers could be wintry for high ground and mainland scotland. maybe to lower levels for the northern isles. these are the top temperatures to expect. nine in aberdeen but 12 in manchester and down to the south and south—west we will cling on to something milder and don't forget the clocks go back and don't forget the clocks go back an houron and don't forget the clocks go back an hour on saturday night. hello, you're watching afternoon live — i'm simon mccoy. today at 2pm... the crisis in spain... the government in madrid is on the verge of seizing control of catalonia. cyber attack on the nhs — it could have been prevented and, according to the government, it came from north korea. president trump releases some — but not all — of the files on the assassination ofjfk. coming up on afternoon live... john has all the sport. rugby league and disappointment at the opening match of the world cup. england's defeated in their opening
