parts of south wales in turn across parts of south wales in turn southern counties of england. they could be in excess of that as well. hello. this is bbc news — the headlines: let's get the sport now from the bbc sports centre. good afternoon. one of england's back up players on their ashes tour, ben duckett, has paid the price for pouring a drink, over one of the senior player's heads at a bar in perth. the 23—year—old, has been suspended pending an investigation, and so missed his chance to push for a test match call up in a tour match today, against a cricket australia 11. andy swiss reports from perth. instead of talking about the cricket on the pitch it is the disciplinary issues which has overshadowed

the start of this two—day match, surrounding ben duckett who is training with the england lions squad. he was due to play in today's match but he was dropped because he is facing an ecb enquiry into an incident in a bar in perth on thursday. it is emerged he was out after midnight with other players including members of the test squad when a senior england player had a drink poured over his head. as a result of that, ben duckett is facing this ecb enquiry. but the ecb point out no members of the public were involved and neither were the police. you can see the frustration of trevor bayliss afterwards. this is another disciplinary issue that england could do without. disappointed. as i said, it doesn't matter how trivial it is, in this environment with what we have gone through these problems, it isn't right. nothing to do with any of their people outside the squad.

again, just boys being boys i suppose. but unacceptable. this will raise questions about the behaviour of england's players because staggeringly, this incident happened on the first night after a midnight curfew had been lifted. that curfew was imposed afterjonny bairstow was involved in an incident in a bar in perth last month. this all happens against a backdrop of the ben stokes issue. he is waiting to find out if he will be charged following an incident outside a nightclub in bristol. for england already 2—0 down in this ashes series and this is precisely the sort of disciplinary distraction they could do without. we have heard the player who had the drink poured over him wasjimmy

anderson. on the pitch, opener keatonjennings, has made a case for picking him next week, by scoring 80, and so too has tom curran, not out 73. he's helped edge england into a good position in this two day match, they declared on 314—9. in reply cricket australia are 62—1. chelsea will look to take advantage of the two manchester clubs playing tomorrow by closing the gap at the top of the premier league this afternoon. they face west ham at the london stadium this afternoon in a 12:30pm kick off. they have been playing for three minutes. west ham making the early running. joe hart is on the bench again. a win for antonio conte‘s men will see them move level in second place with manchester united. it's a bright outlook for ronnie o'sullivan whatever happens in the snooker today. the rocket will play stephen maguire in the semi—finals, looking to reach his seventh uk final. he beat martin gould 6—3, while shaun murphy will play ryan day in the other semi.

and whatever happens in o'sullivan's match, he feels he can't lose. that is all now. now it is time for click. this week, we look at the head of state and a bare bottom. today we are in manchester, at the children's global media summit, a meeting of those who make the content that our children will be watching in the coming years. it's an event with some very important speakers. parents, like catherine and me, are raising the first generation of digitally immersed children.

and this gives us many reasons to be optimistic about the impact of technology on childhood. and before the duke of cambridge gave his speech to the audience, i managed to grab a quick interview with one of the most talked about couples in the country. so how are you finding the conference so far? because, to be honest, my kids get more about the staff of the furcherster hotel than at the powers that be, behind the scenes. but the discussions taking place here will shape the type of content that children will watch in the future and how content providers will meet the expectations of the next generation of viewers. now, if you want to know what children are up to, why not ask them? kids insight runs anonymous questionnaires for 400 kids every week to gather data about the latest trends, hottest new characters, and online habits.

because, of course, it's not all about what kids need — there is a big industry that wants to make money, here, and target those young minds with messages and merchandise. kids insight runs anonymous questionnaires for 400 kids every week to gather data about the latest trends, hottest new characters, and online habits. because, of course, it's not all about what kids need — there is a big industry that wants to make money, here, and target those young minds with messages and merchandise. we do find surprising the amount of children that are viewing youtube without any parental guidance or oversight. we find it's probably about a third, maybe less than a third of under tens, their parents aren't monitoring what they are watching on youtube at all. and that's also a theme here: how to protect children from harmful content and stop them

being exploited by the increasingly personal, interactive, and immersive technologies that they're using. it's a massive concern for many parents, but there are moves to try my my alarm comes from the fact that so many parents feel they are having to make up the rules as they go along. we have put the most powerful information technology in human history, into the hands of our children. yet we don't understand its impact on adults, let alone the very young. it's a massive concern for many parents, but there are moves to try and make children more savvy about online safety, as lara lewington found out when she went back to school. the opportunity for kids to access information and learn has never been bigger. but with that comes a challenge. the threats online are clear to see. but an increasing number of children

are becoming aware of the dangers and how to steer clear. never click on a link in an e—mail unless you are absolutely sure who it is from. basically, these are how many attackers are coming in 'cause the firewall is off. this week an investigation into paedophiles using live streaming apps led to nearly 200 arrests, including teachers, medics, and law enforcers. a batch of leading brands suspended advertising from youtube after suspect comments remained beside videos featuring children. this is not long after the site hit the headlines when its algorithms were found to be pulling inappropriate content into its kids app, which was then viewed by children. of course, the company protests it does all they can, age restricting content in the main app as well is aiming to protect those using youtube kids altogether.

in light of the most recent issues, it's also adding an extra 10,000 moderators to act alongside the software, aiming to keep kids safe. but with such a wealth of information out there, who can actually be held accountable for what is published? first and foremost, the tech companies themselves need to be held accountable. and i mean at the ceo level. all of these platforms have an enormous responsibility to the kids and families in their audience, ‘cause they're making billions of dollars off of them. second, we also need to see some kind of regulation that 0fcom or others could provide that would say this is appropriate or not on these platforms. because if you think that tech companies will self—regulate, then you are kidding yourself. pa rents parents have a huge role to play. as a parent, you need to educate

yourself. it is the same as teaching yourself. it is the same as teaching your kids to walk across the street and not get hit by a car. this is the world they are living in. but at the same time the benefits of this sort of online access can't be ignored. here at this central london school, pupils are taking part in idea, the digital and enterprise version of the duke of edinburgh award. hello, so what are you all up to, here? i am doing a safety badge. the challenges are open and free to all ages, even adults, to provide real life skills. and they can be done anywhere, any time. the pupils are covering a range of subjects, including creating virtual reality, the importance of colour in photography... it's, in essence, the different types of colours. if you want to get an eerie retro feel, you'd reduce the hue and saturation. ..as well as some of the more serious issues surrounding safety online. what are the main things you feel you have come away from this so far having learned? for all my devices i used to put the same password. so if the hackers knew one

of my passwords they would be able to get anything. so i learned that and i tried to change my passwords for everything, even the school website. so i am just going to carry on with the badge. are there any negatives? you have to be careful because of these things that pop up. and it doesn't sound right. it is a new problem, the fake news show issue. will you always be wa ry news show issue. will you always be wary when you read something as to whether it is true or not? undoubtedly, but that is the advantage. the fact we have become more critical as a society, we are less likely to be susceptible. it is not just about whether or not you have done gcse computer science, it is about can you actually manipulate or apply the knowledge?

so what we're trying to do it in such a way that they have the opportunity of learning at themselves, whilst at the same time making them aware of the dangers and pitfalls that we all see on a daily basis. over 100,000 of these bronze awards have been achieved. the silver to be released next april. and in a world where fake news has dominated the headlines, targeting us on what to think or buy, there will be a category called critical thinking, focusing on just that. it will teach the importance of how to substantiate, verify, and trust sources. and at the children's global media summit, the bbc also announced a scheme teaching how to avoid fake news. but the real news right now is that while there may still be a way to go for things to be totally safe online, kids are becoming more aware and maybe at some point soon will be the ones educating the grown—ups. you see, it is...

how can you see, it is so small. yes, i have finished the badge. well done. how are you feeling? woohoo! mobile money is linked to your phone numberand it mobile money is linked to your phone number and it allows those without a bank account make payments. while this is interesting, it is the

services that have developed off the back of these mobile money payments. kate russell went to the slums of nairobi to meet a young family who are benefiting from the latest venture to be linked to the platform. almost half of nairobi's 6 million people live in the slums. their existence, a daily grind to put food and even water on the table. the vast majority of kenyon ‘s don't have any health insurance and in areas like this where the poorest areas like this where the poorest are overlooked in society live, finding enough money to pay for basic health care can fall pretty low on the list of priorities. susan lives in this slump, the whole family, including four kids, sharing this single room. despite the struggle, she's made a commitment to save money for her baby's health care, using this electronic wallet. translation: when the day for me to

go to the clinic arrived, i had managed to save some money in my account. i was able to use that money at the hospital for my treatment. i checked my balance and i realised it had been taken care of bya i realised it had been taken care of by a bonus that had been given to me. my original balance had remained in tax. it encourages people to save by offering bonus credit incentives. and ring fencing funds to be spent only on health care services from one of the country's 600 registered clinics. we have seen the numbers of people who cannot afford to pay for health care going down, because we encourage them to learn role in the scheme. previously, when they got

sick, what would they do? probably be used to do self—medication. some of them would wait until it was too late, when they go to the hospital, probably their condition had gone so far away. susan's sister-in-law works as a hairdresser in the city. she wanted to help out with expenses and this system allowed her to tra nsfer and this system allowed her to transfer money from her own wallet. translation: we chose it because of its benefits. if you save and hit a target of 100 shillings in a month, you get a bonus of 50 shillings. but is why we prefer this, because also there is no saving limit. in just over a year, it has gained over1 million users and processed more than 100 million shillings of medical transactions. but it's also collecting data that can help

clinics like this, planned better provision of services and stock when funding and storage space is so limited. right now we get some very good aggregated data, in terms of people'shealth utilisation habits. transaction data, how much does treating malaria case cost? this helps in planning and policy level because he will be able to influence the policy of our country to better handle health issues. susan isjust one of many canyons who has realised the importance of preventative care to the targeted incentives and advice. susan is like many others out there. previously, they have not a lwa ys out there. previously, they have not always had this tool to plan and put money aside for their health care. but with their mobile phone, they are able to do this. welcome to the week in tech.

messenger kids has parental controls and it said it won't collect data or at adverts on the system. nissan announced plans to launch robot taxis in japan. there announced plans to launch robot taxis injapan. there will be summoned via an app from march next year. an electric black cabs were launched in london in an attempt to improve air quality. some said the extra £10,000 cost to buy one put them off going green. over 31 million users data was leaked after the database was left without

password protection. it allowed access to phone numbers, e—mail addresses and text typed using the keyboard. finally, the mona lisa has been recreated on a microscopic scale, using a process called dna origami. the technique folds are long strand of dna into shape and has previously been used to create a minuscule version of starry nights by vincent van gogh off. and here is one i made earlier. back at the global media summit, we are talking about the future of storytelling, and which technologies, content makers and commissioners might be using to capture children's tension in the future. will it be vr, interactive stories or narrative is by artificial intelligence? after the panel, i caught up with one of my guests, the creative director for vr at visual effects house, frame

store. br is so immersive, you can tackle these big issues, but there isa tackle these big issues, but there is a danger with children, they are glued to their phones or their tv, but to put them in such an immersive environment, what do you have to think about? so many things. there area number of think about? so many things. there are a number of parameters we have to think about. we have to be cautious about what we are doing. there is an age limit on the headsets and it is 13 plus. when we are designing any experience, it is about understanding the audience understands how long and experience should be. does it get uncomfortable after a while. does it affect their behaviour? does it affect their interaction? all of those things will be taken into consideration and we wa nt will be taken into consideration and we want to tackle those issues head on in terms of a great vr experience and an amazing story, can do a lot of good. so we are bringing the art and the science together. what

projects are you working on for children? we recently worked with warner brothers, and jk rowling, fantastic beasts and where to find them. that starts as young as three—year—olds that love harry potter, all the weight up to 80—year—old grandparents. what great storytelling is about is taking somebody beyond a movie and taking them to the heart of story. but really powerful. are we fooling ourselves to think the future of storytelling is virtual reality? there are other technologies, should we be thinking about those? since the time of cavemen, we have been wired to tell stories. what is happening with vr, it becomes another platform on which to tell the story. it is never going to place books, it is never going to replace going to the movies and watching an amazing film with your pa rents. watching an amazing film with your parents. it is never going to happen. but what it does allow us as

storytellers, artists and directors, isa storytellers, artists and directors, is a blank canvas, and other campus to help engage people. why do we tell stories? we want to immerse somebody in another world. we want to bring delight, scare them, educate them. all of that is storytelling and what br allows us is this amazing new platform but has a profound affect on how we feel. vr adds this new layer of excitement andi adds this new layer of excitement and i think it is part of the future of storytelling. it's not the future, it is part of the future. here is a nice app for kids. you download and print of your favourite character from cbeebies. download and print of your favourite characterfrom cbeebies. colour it in however you like and then you pick up your tablet and luck. there is the dock. you can do other characters as well. there is my favourite. he has the power and the

speed. she zooms away. not that i'm afan of speed. she zooms away. not that i'm a fan of anything. and from some decent visual effects to some absolutely top of the range visual effects. in the form of one of the biggest films of beer, paddington two. ask rotten tomatoes why it scored 100%. we sat down with the man who was responsible for bringing paddington from peru to the big screen. parents, spoileralert! paddington from peru to the big screen. parents, spoiler alert! we are about to take paddington apart. this is london. one of the key areas we begin with is pre—visualisation. it is working in extremely low five fashion, to be able to explore camera angles, moves, working with

animators who have a familiarity with paddington himself. filming without paddington makes the process extremely abstract, that is for sure. so we employ a variety of techniques, as for the best part standing called lauren, who is about paddington's height. she would give us paddington's height. she would give us and everybody under set a brilliant insight into his presence. you don't want to make it difficult and expensive for having to paint blots out. you try and minimise what is in the place of paddington on the shot you will use. what is most difficult is when paddington is interacting with objects or people. you need somebody to do that, to create either the touch, the cloth thatis create either the touch, the cloth that is going to be touched. as a statistic, if you put all the man

hours together, it would be 75 years of someone's like to do the visual effects on paddington. that gives you a perspective on how much work is involved. fundamental is that he lives, he had to be realistic, he had to live in the real space. we we re always had to live in the real space. we were always very careful not to reveal too much white of the eyes, so reveal too much white of the eyes, so they don't look too much like a cartoon. contained the gestures. as an animator, you first pick of paddington and you go for obvious statements. paddington isn't about that, so you take it all away. it is the small shift of his eyebrows there, ora dart the small shift of his eyebrows there, or a dart there, which tells you he's thinking. when you get into that zone of the small, you can start engineering these carefully placed little beads. when he starts

to feel genuine and live and breathe asa to feel genuine and live and breathe as a real character and something that you can hopefully fall in love with. the train chase was complicated, but even within the prison, the ceilings have been extended in the atrium. there is a huge amount of set extensions. when we are lifting off in the balloon and he is escaping, the entire present exterior is a fabrication thatis present exterior is a fabrication that is cgi. simple scenes like the one where he travels through the prison and it's transforming and you see his affect on the place and everyone is making cakes. that was a complicated sequence because of the very artisan way in which we wanted to make this prison transform. a

musical affect on all of the things. it took a lot of planning of many parties, motion control and explorations of what would work. almost infinite possibility, when you play through. but there is a lot of augmentation all the way through the film. probably almost every shot, you could point at something and go, that photograph has been inserted in that frame or the sky has been changed there. 0r inserted in that frame or the sky has been changed there. or that bridge didn't exist, you know. there isa bridge didn't exist, you know. there is a lot of that stuff, all very understated. thank you, mr brown. that visit from the children's global media summit. we live on twitter and on facebook where you can find the latest tech

news through the week. thanks for watching and we will see you soon. we're looking at significant disruption for early snow and disruption for early snow and disruption from gale force winds across the south later on sunday. but the much of saturday, apart from snow showers across northern scotla nd snow showers across northern scotland in north—west england, the emphasis will be on fine, dry and sunny weather. after the cold, frosty start it will be another cold day. temperatures fall away quickly overnight. heavy rain pushes up from the south—west, bumps into the cold airand turns into the south—west, bumps into the cold air and turns into heavy snow across the midlands, parts of wales and

northern ireland. met office be prepared amber warnings in force for the risk of ten, maybe 20 centimetres of snow and that is a lot of snowfall for the british isles. likely to cause treacherous road conditions on sunday morning. the next morning the cr 60 mallon are gusts the next morning the cr 60 mallon are gusts across the next morning the cr 60 mallon are gusts across parts of south wales into southern counties of england. could also be in excess of that as well, so keep tuned to the forecast. —— 60 mile an hour gusts. good afternoon. the foreign secretary borisjohnson is in tehran, where he's expected to press the authorities to release a british—iranian woman, nazanin zaghari ratcliffe, and other dual nationals,
