than it was in 1971. if you publish, we'll be in the supreme court next week. meaning? we could all go to prison. there's been another massive press expose in the last six months, which is what looks like the endemic sexual harassment and exploitation which is, what looks like the endemic sexual harassment and exploitation of women in hollywood. i mean, you're a really senior figure in hollywood and you've been around a long time. do you ever think, you know what, i think i could have done a bit more to stop this? well, you know, i can only basically react to that question within my own workplace environment. within my organisation, there weren't incidences, except for just a couple of years and years ago, that i would say gave me the experiences to be the authority on that question you ask. what happened in those incidences? there were just a couple of incidences. i don't go into detail on them, but they happened years and years ago, where we had to let somebody go. people are concerned about having a woman in charge of the paper. that she doesn't have the resolve to make the tough choices. thank you for your frankness.

my prediction is that this watershed moment for women, in extolling the courage of women who, like katherine graham, with the pentagon papers, and with her decision to publish or not to publish, so many women have found their voices and they have been given so much support. notjust by other women, but also by certain men. i think this is notjust another news cycle. another news cycle, i think this is a permanent change in the culture. maybe. but as kay graham showed with her courageous leadership of the washington post, exposing deeply rooted corrupt behaviour is one thing — changing it is quite another. will gompertz, bbc news. here on bbc one it's time for the news where you are. welcome to sports day. these are the

10:33 pm
programme lets start with news that the referee who awarded a controversial penalty which eventually lost northern ireland in world cup play—off against switzerland last year has admitted he now made a mistake. they ruled corry evans blocked a shot despite replays showing the ball struck the player's shoulder. perhaps it will come as little comfort to northern ireland supporters but the referee has admitted he got it wrong back in november. it was a sad and unpleasant moment for me, sad because i made that mistake, painful because i made that mistake, painful because with my team of officials we had been performing well. in our world the referees are the same as
10:34 pm
goalkeepers, everyone sees the mistake. the introduction of video technology was too late for the play—offs but used in the fa cup only this week includes reviews of such penalty decisions. from the d's point of view it as an opportunity to replace an error during the match, but more importantly for football it will bring a higher degree of fairness and integrity and affect the way the players behave because they know they cannot get away with things during the match. var will bring improvements and there will always be discussions but i think those big mistakes will be eliminated. his error appears to have cost him a place as a referee at the world cup finals in russia this summer but he still hopes to 90, this summer but he still hopes to go, ironically as a video footage official. the nba has come to london's 02 arena with the boston
10:35 pm
celtics taking on the philadelphia 76ers, it is the eighth time a regular—season game has taken place in the capital with the league keen to extend the reach of the sport here. and nba official told as a full—time franchise based in the uk is looking increasingly unlikely. while this was one of the most eagerly anticipated matches, two of the eastern conference's best teams and it was the celtics who came out on top. we are staying with american sports because tottenham's hopes of having a new stadium ready for the next season that to be busted as the nfl and owns their premier league cds starts with a match at white hart lane in october. the stadium developers say technology will allow them to put on a separate playing surface for american football games. the seattle sea hawks surface for american football games. the seattle seahawks will play oakland raiders at white hart lane

a white ball cricket whereas i myself see at the other way around and my stats which shall that my actual strength is in red ball cricket. i have already had a taste of international experience with the twe nty20 of international experience with the twenty20 this year and it would be nice to go into the environment this time was a lot more confidence in my game so hopefully that should stand me in good stead going into the new year. what can you bring to that squad now? isuppose year. what can you bring to that squad now? i suppose particularly after how the ashes went, what would you make of that? obviously the ashes was a very tough series for the england boys but the actual result of 4—0 i don't think reflects how close the series was. there was just the odd key moments were england lost them and they were the sort of differences in the series. the group of players that england have got at the moment, there are a
10:39 pm
lot of talented cricketers and i think it is quite an exciting squad to be going into. hopefully i can add something whenever i can going into the squad when they get to new zealand. the draw for the australian open was made earlier today in melbourne. we can hear about the prospects are some of the british players any moment but the defending men's champion roger federer was at the door and he saw himself pitted against the former british number two. the world number one raffaella nadal and last year's runner—up, he started against burgos. the only british male in melbourne faces a tough test against us open finalist kevin anderson of south africa. in the women's draw, the new world number one halep plays, the british

10:41 pm
and when i wasn't selected for the team i had a bit of a mental breakdown and i was really struggling. the stars aligned and i had this opportunity, and i grabbed it, i need that competition. athletics was going to start dying out for me anyway, want a slowdown in life but now i am going faster andi in life but now i am going faster and i can't wait. it is the first jaguar supercar to come out of the factory in 50 years and inside is like any other racing car but that can be adapted to suit any impairments. it is fair to say the invictus games movement has come a long way since its inception in 2014. it has taken off in ways we couldn't have imagined. it is a beacon that has attracted a huge number of people and that is fantastic. this is a particularly bright and shining beacon and it really is the pinnacle of what is achievable. it will attract people to it and it allows us to demonstrate what is possible. the series starts at the end of march where they will be competing against

hardened racers. they are not one to shirk a challenge. that is all from us and coming up in a moment, the papers. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are lucy fisher, senior political correspondent at the times and pauljohnson, deputy editor of the guardian. tomorrow's front pages. the telegraph reports the government will have banks freeze the assets of illegal immigrants. the paper says that as part of a plan to force them out of the country. it also carries a picture of bethany walker who died after becoming ill at home — initially from flu symptoms which later developed into pneumonia.

10:44 pm
about the threat of a merger between the royal marines and the paratroopers and the royal marines and the pa ratroopers and attempts the royal marines and the paratroopers and attempts to cut the armed forces by up to 14,000 troops. this will cause a lot of uproar, the army is already 14,000 short of its 82,000 target. there is a £20 billion shortfall in the budget over the next decade, by firemen tested how this is coming out. he has been tipped as a future leadership contender and he has been banging his drum and it'll be interesting to see if he gets his way. and he won't wa nt see if he gets his way. and he won't want big cuts on his watch? three things about this story, one, it is a good story, process in action and real—life politics. it says troops would leave the smallest army since before napoleon. we don't fight battles in europe using squares and
10:45 pm
cavalry so i don't think that matters, but you could have had the headline, merger threat to philip hammond because that is really what the story is about. is gavin williamson playing a crafty game? the story is of backbenchers getting really irritated about this and philip hammond has another person knocking on his door but more money. somebody it seems won't be knocking on the board of downing street is donald trump according to the daily mail. you can phone that visit which would've been hugely controversial, andi would've been hugely controversial, and i would have been big protest if they came. i wouldn't be surprised. he said he was still planning to come but donald trump not keeping his word wouldn't necessarily raise my eyebrows. we know what he is like, he would be faced with huge protests.
