the latest superhero film from marvel had its european premiere tonight in london, but what makes it different is its predominantly all—black cast, playing the heroes. the film's become a sensation on social media, with many fans using the hashtag "what black panther means to me", to highlight its significance for black audiences. our entertainment correspondent lizo mzimba has the story. a free cinema trip would have been welcome enough for these american schoolchildren — their sheerjoy is because the movie is black panther. such is the film's significance, people around the world are crowd sourcing money so that children who might otherwise not get the chance, can get to watch it on the big screen. people like actress jade anouka from peckham in london — she has so far raised around £4,000 for a screening at her local cinema. i think it's just a film you don't really see, you don't see black superheroes in big blockbusters. the positive representation is good for people growing up in this area but i think all over the world.

we're home. black panther is being seen as a cultural milestone. a predominantly black cast leading a big budget blockbuster. you get to decide. and a film that also puts strong women right at its heart. black panther is a moment and hopefully it's one that... it will obviously exist for longer than this particular moment. we want this momentum to keep going. i don't think it's black panther‘s responsibility to change the world. the change will come from the people who see it and choose to make a difference in their own lives. for many, it's the kind of film they've been waiting decades for hollywood to make. how important was it for you making sure this was primarily a piece of entertainment, even with this huge amount of social responsibility that was inevitably going to come into the equation?

i mean, that's what it is. it's not a political lecture, you know what i mean? it's a movie. it's got to work as that. and that is a movie already generating huge amounts of excitement for a new generation, who have rarely seen themselves reflected in a film like this up on the big screen. lizo mzimba, bbc news. here on bbc one it's time for the news where you are. goodnight. good evening, you're watching bbc news. i'm 0lly foster, at the bbc sport centre. these are our sportsday headlines tonight. broken bones and olympic dreams. there's a blow for the british team on the eve of the winter games. west bromwich albion strikerjay rodriguez says he will prove his innocence after being charged by the fa for using racist language. and wales are the only

unchanged team for the second round of six nations matches, but there's a warning from england's eddie jones. the winter olympics opening ceremony is just 12 hours away and the british team have been dealt a huge blow. snowboarder katie 0rmerod, who had been targetting two medals in south korea, is out of the games through injury. she was due to take part in the big air and slopestyle events but two training accidents over the past 2a hours means that she has had to withdraw from what would have been her first games. here's our reporter ade adedoyin. we know she is going to be out of the games because of a severely

fractured heel. the british olympic association have confirmed that. she has posted pictures of herself in hospital. and as you say it has been a difficult time for her, she suffered a fall in training, she had a scan on thursday and that confirmed the severity of that injury, and this all comes 2a hours after she suffered a wrist fracture as well, she posted pictures on social media of that as well, saying that she was intent on competing this weekend. went back to training, suffered another fall and her campaign is over. it is a real setback for her and the team as well. she is a talented snowboarder who had a chance of winning a medal. she won a bronze in a test event in pyeongchang, a bronze medal at the games in 2017 and gold in a world cup games in 2017 and gold in a world cu p eve nt games in 2017 and gold in a world cup event a last year, but because of those injuries she won't have the opportunity to add an olympic medal to those she has won in the past. west brom strikerjay rodriguez has

been charged by the football association for using racist language in an incident involving the brighton defender gaetan bong last month. rodriguez has responded on social media, saying, "absolutely gutted and in disbelief at the situation i find myself in. 100% deny the false allegation and will take the correct legal advice to prove my innocence." west brom say they will "fully support" their player. he has until the 16 february to respond to the football association. the tottenham head coach mauricio pochettino thinks the football association needs to step in regarding the state of rochdale‘s pitch ahead of their tie in the fifth round of the fa cup later this month. one half of it is completely devoid of grass and more like a sand pit. rochdale‘s fourth round replay against millwall two nights ago was allowed to go ahead despite their previous two home games being postponed. the fa can offer assistance to the league one side to help with repairs. spurs are due to play the league one side there a week on sunday. it is like i saw in the picture, i

think you cannot play football. that is my point of view, but not because we are tottenham 0rion, no, no, i think rochdale cannot play too football there, it is bad for their players too. they go in, try to take a very good decision for football. they go in, try to take a very good decision for football. spurs face arsenal at wembley on saturday in the league pochettino said earlier this week that ‘tricking' an opponent was now part of the game. it was in response to questions about winning penalties. the gunner's manager arsene wenger joked that english footballers may now be "the masters of diving." although he didn't believe pochettino was condoning cheating. 0ri

or i don't know, no, no, i think rochdale cannot play too football there, it is bad for their players too. they go in, try to take a very good decision for football. it is to say you have to be clever, you know, how far, was it an apology for diving? you know, how far, was it an apology fordiving? i you know, how far, was it an apology for diving? i am not sure at all. you know, how far, was it an apology for diving? iam not sure at all. i don't think he would, in my personal case, no. so, i must say, we have to get the diving out of the game, i remember there was tremendous cases here when it was a foreign players who did it, but i must say the english players have learned very quickly and they may be the masters 110w. with a couple of days to go before the next round of six nations matches, an unchanged wales side head to twickenham after their big over scotland. england head coach eddiejones has ramped up the mind games, questioning whether wales fly half rhys patchell has the "bottle" for the fixture. the inexperienced scarlets playmaker was instrumental as wales crushed scotland in cardiff last weekend. it isa it is a massive step up. he hasn't

played much test rugby at all. he is a young guy, hasn't got great experienced players round hip. he will have rob shaw, farrell at him, he will have care, all guys who have played a lot of test resulting by. george ford. it is whether he has the bottle to handle it. it is whether he has the bottle to handle it. after their heavy defeat to wales on the opening weekend of the six nations, scotland have made six changes to their line up for sunday's game against france at murrayfield. former captain greig laidlaw was on the bench in cardiff but he'll start in place of ali price who was scrum half against the welsh the experienced sean maitland and ryan wilson also return. robshaw, farrell at him, he will have care, all guys who have played a lot of test rugby. george ford. it is whether he has the handle it. there is a lot of experience, he has been the captain of the side for a couple of season, he drives a lot of the standards off and on the field. having him back in the group was a positive. seeing him play so well, and being desperate to be back in the squad, back in the team, yes, we

should get his experience on the field, which would help others around him. there were a couple of matches in rugby league's super league this evening. huddersfield giants beat warrington wolves 20 points to six. while defending champions leeds rhinos came from behind to win 20—11 against hull kr and preserve their unbeaten start to the season. rovers were ten zero up inside half an hour but ajimmy keinhorst hat trick, plus one from adam cuthbertson sealed the victory for leeds. britain's mark cavendish has won stage three of the tour of dubai. the dimension data rider held off attacks from nacer bouhanni and marcel kittel. he's third overall, with two stages to go, behind leader dylan grerner vaygen. britain's adam blythe finished fourth for aqua blue sport. a one off and a true gentleman. some of the tributes to jimmy armfield whose funeral was held today. the former england and blackpool captain died last month at the age of 82. today his funeral cortege passed through bloomfield road the ground he played at for 17 years before a private service
