to have also been key in ending the deadly siege in a supermarket. being exchanged for a hostage being held at gunpoint by 26—year—old redouane lakdim. lieutena nt—colonel beltrame secretly kept his mobile phone connected to colleagues outside, allowing them to hear what was happening. the attacker had already killed two of his captives, and mr beltrame was shot several times before security forces stormed the building, killing the gunman and ending the siege. three people were killed in a series of attacks by redouane lakdim and over a dozen injured. he claimed to be acting on behalf of the jihadist group islamic state and said he wanted to secure the release of salah abdeslam, a french detainee linked to the november 2015 paris attacks. 18 investigators from the uk's information commissioner have been searching the london

headquarters of cambridge analytica overnight, after a high courtjudge granted them a warrant. the firm is at the centre of a data privacy row and is accused of using information from millions of facebook users to help political campaigns, without their consent. after a week of waiting for a warrant, last night the is called. theirjob to search the offices of cambridge analytica to evidence that data gathered by facebook personality test from around 50 million americans in 2014 was not stride. and whether it grow one use the data, it had an impact on the election two years later that for donald trump in the white house. that seems to be the claim of its since suspended boss when recorded by undercover reporters. some believe it is time to ask what we wa nt believe it is time to ask what we want from the web. we can think carefully a nd want from the web. we can think carefully and deliberate meaning

lead about what it means to be in a digital world, and impose appropriate restraints upon wisdom without personal data and what we think that is ought to be. others are already voting with their keyboards. elon musk has revealed he is the most high profile user yet to join the delete faced look movement by culling his company's profile pages. —— facebook. ben ando joins us now from outside the cambridge analytica headquarters. quite a lengthy amount of time spent searching these offices, what exactly were they looking for? that's a really good question, i don't think we're in tyrie clear. the first thing i think we should make absolutely clear is that both facebook and cambridge analytica in either they have done anything wrong at all. but to look at what you are asking specifically we know that pretty much an hour after that warrant was granted in the high

court, 18 investigators arrived here, they went in, we saw them taking in boxes and cartons, they stayed here are around six hours, leaving at three o'clock in the morning, having had some pizza delivered. but what exactly they we re delivered. but what exactly they were looking for, are they looking to the data itself, are they looking for evidence that the data was deleted not deleted when cambridge analytica said it was, are they looking for other things? to some extent we are in uncharted waters here. what the information commissioner has made clear is that this is just commissioner has made clear is that this isjust one part commissioner has made clear is that this is just one part of what they are describing as a very long and complex investigation that is examining all sorts of of how data and analytics can impact on political campaigns and how people might vote in elections. thank you, we will talk to liam byrne from the labour party later as well. 0wen smith has said he will continue to argue against brexit, despite being sacked from the labour front bench for disagreeing with party policy.

last night he was dismissed as the shadow northern ireland secretary byjeremy corbyn, after calling for a second eu referendum. several labour mps, including chuka umunna, have questioned their leader's decision. 0wen has been a superb northern ireland shadow secretary of state, his views on the european union, he is advocacy of a people's vote on the breakfast deal is, his advocacy of us think —— staying in the single market and customs union were vocal positions he held before his appointment in june of last positions he held before his appointment injune of last year. so it's quite bizarre that he should be sacked from his post. hundreds of thousands of people are expected to take part in marches around the world today calling for tighter gun controls in america. the main rally in washington will include survivors of last month's school shooting in florida. last night the usjustice department confirmed it will propose a ban on bump stocks — devices which can turn ordinary assault rifles

into machine guns. conservation officials in australia have confirmed more than 140 pilot whales which became stranded off the western coast have died. fisherman made the discovery at hamelin bay just south of perth yesterday, prompting a large scale rescue effort to return the animals to deeper waters. only 6 whales are thought to have survived. drivers are being dazzled by the headlights on new cars, according to an rac survey. two thirds of motorists said they were dazzled by headlamps regularly, and 15% claimed they had nearly crashed because the lights of oncoming cars were too bright. all headlamps on uk cars must conform to eu guidelines. £38 million was raised during last night's sport relief. the amount is below the record £55 million pledged in 2016 — but organisers are still hailing the event a huge success. 0ur entertainment correspondent, colin paterson reports. and away they go, pushing hard...

this was a very competitive sport relief. there was the clash of the channels, bbc versus itv, but with daniel walker in one vote, —— one vote, charttopping on the other, it was bbc breakfast versus good morning britain. and the bbc will ta ke morning britain. and the bbc will take victory in the sport relief celebrity boat race! there was the return of celebrity boxing. helen skelton used to be on blue peter, this was black and blue peter. she w011 this was black and blue peter. she won a full on encounter with camilla thurlow from love island. now on sport relief, this has been a 12 hour penalty marathon. how am i going to get on? i will keep the microphone in my hand. disaster to scotland! sir andy murray is asleep

in this hotel. andrew murray did not know about plans to waken up from michael mcintyre's midnight game—show. he ended up duetting with a spice girl. do you really really want... backstage the donations were coming in. nadine is eight and has given her entire pocket money. you can't argue with that. what is pocket money nowadays?” can't argue with that. what is pocket money nowadays? i didn't ask, thatis pocket money nowadays? i didn't ask, that is very personal, but she has given to us. although the total raised was not a record, it was a sizeable amount. i don't think colin will let that

penalty go for a long time. 500,000 people will be marching to the white house today, galvanised by young protestors calling for a change to us gun controls after last month's school shooting in florida. around the world, including in london, thousands more will take to the streets to show solidarity for the movement. it is, of course, an issue which divides america. let's talk more about this with gregg carter, a sociology professor, who joins us now from rhode island. we have had other mass shootings in america but there seems to be momentum this time, for some kind of change to the gun laws right across america. what is different, do you think? most immediately what is different is that young people are getting involved, and young people are voting bloc in the united states, that rarely utilises its power. that is the exciting thing about this movement, eating young people involved in the political process. in terms of support for stricter controls on gun laws, that

is more evident amongst the young, isn't it? absolutely. tell us about what has happened specifically in florida, they have changed laws in that state since the shooting? that is an example of this new power in the political system, and they were able to get through a couple of relatively minor changes in state gun law, including raising the age from 18 to 21, and the outlawing of bump stocks that converts semiautomatic weapons into automatic weapons. president trump himself has said that they will introduce a com plete said that they will introduce a complete ban on bump stocks, it is worth reminding our audience hear what exactly bump stocks are, and how much of a difference to you think that will make? it will realistically make next to no difference. bump stock is a special device that you can put on a semiautomatic rifle to turn it into

an automatic weapon. . except for loss vegas last fall, most people, not even most gun exports —— experts knew much about bump stocks. the legislation put forward was similar to that put forward in florida, which is mainly symbolic and not the kind of serious gun—control measures that this youth movement is looking for. and that those groups who have been fighting for stronger gun laws have been looking for this sometime. you know anyone —— better than anyone of the resistance that there is from organisations like the national rifle association, who have called these people calling for gun controls, opportunists and waiting for not one second to exploit tragedy for political gain. the national rifle association is an

example of how the tail can wag the dog in american politics. it is a small proportion of the art of states, 5 million people, but they will tremendous power and have for the last two decades. -- in the united states. at what might make a difference is commercial interests, and after the parkland shooting, we did see organisations like airlines and car rental firms cut their ties with the national rifle association. do you think this will make a difference in the end? it can't hurt, it definitely helps, it keeps theissue hurt, it definitely helps, it keeps the issue in the public discussion. what is really going to change gun laws in the united states is when there is a major shift in which political party controls the federal government. as most of your listeners and viewers probably no it is the republican party, the conservative party that controls both houses of congress and the presidency right now. but we have major elections coming up in a few

months, and presidential elections coming up in 2020. thank you very much. you are watching bbc brea kfast. much. you are watching bbc breakfast. the police a police officer who swapped places with a hostage during a siege in france has died after being shot. here's alina with a look at this morning's weather. i have a quest for the whole morning. could we avoid saying it's going to be cold and have the whole rainbow feeling? i can try, i will try my best not to mention cold and snow. at least this weekend, it is

springlike. a bit of rain. most of the weekend, sunny spells and showers. a few rainbows. an area of low pressure down to the south—west. pershing a lot of cloud across england and wales and that is bringing some patchy rain through the night and continues through this morning. rain on the heavy side, particularly for the home counties. it will start to ease off. a different picture further north. a touch of frost in races. also some showers through the day. what we find with this cloud is that across northern england, it will break. southeast wingham, parts of wales, the channel islands. a lot of cloud for much of england and wales. temperatures rise, 9— 11 so we will

see some clearer skies. temperatures here, 4— seven celsius. it is cold start to much of the country. still the cloud, quite stubborn to go. further north, a good deal of sunshine tomorrow but still some showers, particularly the north—west scotla nd showers, particularly the north—west scotland but fewer showers in northern ireland. in that sunshine, still on the mild side. maybe 12 celsius across southern parts of england. the next week, it will slowly start to turn colder. the risk of snow but did grieve uncertainty. we'll keep an eye on the forecast over the next few days.

monday, a chilly start. the cloud builds on the western will push some rain eastwards. the further east, the bubbly staying largely dry. as to look ahead to the easter weekend, it does start to turn much colder and there is the chance of wintry showers. i said and there is the chance of wintry showers. isaid i and there is the chance of wintry showers. i said i wouldn't mention the cold weather but it looks like things will turn much colder towards the easter weekend but not as cold as what we saw earlier in the months are not as bad. so no beast? and mini beast. mini beast market too. or likely to slow easterly. and it had snow in june as well. but it still snowing men, i'm going to be cross. the joy of this country, we enjoy seasons. we'll be back with the news headlines in a few moments, but first it's time

for the film review with jane hill and mark kermode. hello and a warm welcome. to take us through this week's cinema releases is mark kermode. so mark, what do we have this week? what have you been watching? interesting week, we have a psychological thriller starring claire foy by steven soderbergh, unsane. wrinkle in time, the big budget adaptation of a much—loved book by ava duvernay. and pacific rim: uprising, john boyega stars in the robotic sequel. claire foy is a big—ticket? the new film by steven soderbergh, claire foy will be very much in the shadow of an old sam fuller film, called shock corridor, an interesting, trashy, exploitation film.

claire foy is a businesswoman whose life has fallen apart because she has endured a stalker, and basically, as a result of this, she has had to move towns, keep her identity quiet, keep her phone number secret. she has lived a very difficult life as a result of this stalker‘s attentions and unsurprisingly she suffers from anxiety and depression. she goes to see her doctor, during the course of the conversation, she happens to mention in passing that she has thought about suicide but she mentions it literally as an aside. the next thing, she is signing a piece of paper which she is told is completely standard and suddenly she finds herself incarcerated. against your will. she is completely sane, but she's now in prison, so here she is now in prison, so here's a clip. can i ask, do you think i could just make a phone call, to let my family know that i am 0k? you get a phone call... that is so nice.

thank you. you are saying you want your phone call now? yes, yes, that is what i am saying, it is like you read my mind. yes, hello, my name is sawyer valentini, i am at highland creek behavioural facility. lam being held here against my will, please send help, thank you. i will be out of here in like 20 minutes. do you know how many calls the cops get like that every week? those are from crazy people. that is kind of the set—up, then she's trying to prove that she is completely sane, and the more she attempts to do that, the more insane they think she is. very odd, like side effects, which started like a serious drama and went off the rails, this begins in a fairly intense fashion, and then

descends more and more into just complete craziness. and it does so very knowingly. the interesting thing, it is shot on an iphone 7. it does not look grungy, that gives it a very immediate look. he said he found it liberating, steven soderbergh. we have seen other films shot on iphones before, for instance, tangerine. juno temple, great screen presence, she is an unruly force of nature, she has a small role. she's really captivating. the film itself, steven soderbergh is interesting, not above exploitation movies, he's not above enjoying a certain degree of cinematic hysteria. what makes this work is claire foy, because herjob is to keep a completely straight face while everything around her is descending. and the whole thing is, you have to believe in her. she starts to think that her stalker is working in the hospital. is he, isn't he, is she imagining it, is it true? none of this would work if you did not have a performance

at the centre which had complete conviction, somebody where you think, i'm investing my sympathy and belief in this character. on one level, it's just like a big, overblown episode of the twilight zone. it has that sense of seriousness at the beginning. that goes out of the window very fast and it descends into entertaining histrionics, all over the place, makes no sense whatsoever, all over the place. there is a point where someone clearly said, this plot does not... actually, let's carry on! claire foy carries it and it is a great tribute to her. terrible thing to say but i was so stressed just watching the trailer that i did not go to the screening because i thought, i am so stressed and angry over these two minutes, i cannot handle that for two hours. perfectly fine... is it stressful throughout? certainly, at the beginning, when she is saying, i'm not meant to be here. i do find that stuff... it is intense. a third of the way through, it goes,

never mind, let's go completely and enjoy ourselves. that is what happens. claire foy keeps it together. superb actress, she's terrific. a fantastic director, ava duvernay, what do you make of this? this means you have read some of the reviews are not positive. this is her adaptation of the much—loved book a wrinkle in time by madeleine l'engle. storm reid goes searching for her missing scientist father, an adventure through time and space, led by three bizarrely attired astral guides. the film is really interesting in as much as it is a broad canvas, a film breaking the white male grip on the fantasy market, trying to do something adventurous, aimed very specifically at the seven to 14 age group. and as a 56—year—old man, i am demonstrably therefore not in the target audience! the thing that troubles me is this, because i'm excited by the idea of it, is why didn't i like it more? the thing it reminded me

of was peterjackson?s adaptation of the lovely bones. a really difficult book, he did this fantastical adaptation which had loads of dreamy visuals. but it never got under the skin of the book, and i felt all the time that i was watching the film rather than experiencing it. fantasy, you have to be engulfed, you have to be swept along. what i did like about it, a film with a young female central character who gets through on her wits rather than anything else. she is the emotional heart of the film. all the way through i could feel myself thinking, i want to be carried along by this but i am not. i am willing to accept that it may read differently if you are in the target market. it may be that i was just too

detached from the film—making to be able to fully invest in the story, and i confess, i will go and see it again but i would be lying if i said the film worked for me. i wanted it to, but if you think of the best fantasy films, i?m thinking about et, for instance, no matter your age, you burst into tears. you weep buckets because it is et. this does not do that, my feeling is it is an honourable failure. nothing wrong with that, i would rather see a film—maker aim high and trip up than play it safe, but i did feel that i wanted this to work and it did not. 0k, and your third choice, is this a blockbuster? let's wait and see! the first pacific rim, guillermo del toro took greatjoy in the spectacle of really big robots hitting really big creatures. ok, so made by somebody who loved all that stuff, and i think del toro is sorely missed on the sequel. this is set ten years after the battle at the end of that one. black marketeer jake pentecost, son of idris elba's character from the first, has to go to prison or go back and work as an instructor for more people to learn how

to drive these massive robots, these jaegers, and of course, he agrees to be an instructor. how are you doing? this is a military base. you remember how that works. ranger pentecost. ranger, sir. let's get you squared away. it is a really cool name! in its favour, it is a film about massive robots hitting each other, it has none of the leering nastiness of a michael bay movie, that is good. 0n the other hand, what it does not have is any of the magic and wonder and awe of a guillermo del toro film. nor does it have the fun of real steel, for instance, with huthackman and big fighting robots.

very quickly, despite the fact we have some interesting actors, very quickly it becomes big robots hitting each other and smashing great big buildings and none of it having any impact whatsoever. really odd, you are left with the spectacle. empty spectacle. very few occasions in which empty spectacle alone will get away with it. i think we have seen enough big robots hitting each other to no longer be impressed by that. what you need... i know this sounds old—fashioned, you need a story that you care about, characters that you like and you are rooting for. some kind of heart amidst all the real steel smashing. and real steel did have that and this did not. i get the feeling you did not like it much. what is good ? the best thing out, you were never really here, by lynne ramsay. she has made only four features. morvern callar, we need to talk about kevin, ratcatcher and this. she dances to the beat of her own drum. this is a really brilliant film, starring joaquin phoenix as a guy who is a hitman, specialises in retrieving lost teenagers.

but the film is not interested in the nuts and bolts of the plot, it is more a psychological state, a brilliant score by jonny greenwood, you need to see it on a big screen because it is proper cinema. i think lynne ramsey is a genius. an absolute genius, please go to see this film because it is wonderful, make it a hit. this is written and directed by angela robinson, great performances by rebecca hall, bella heathcote, believe me, i did not know this story before i saw the film, very eye opening, very entertaining, not enough people saw this in cinemas. i would like more people to see this film on dvd, professor marston and the wonder women. that is just about all we have time for this week. you can find all of the film news and from across the bbc on the website. all the previous programmes

are on the iplayer, as ever. enjoy your cinema—going. see you next time. hello, this is breakfast, with naga munchetty and rachel burden. good morning, here's a summary of today's main stories from bbc news. a police officer who swapped himself for a hostage in a supermarket siege in france has died in hospital. lieutenant colonel arnaud beltrame had been praised for his heroism by the french president, emmanuel macron. three other people were killed and several more injured in separate attacks by a gunman who claimed to be acting on behalf of the islamic state group. he was later shot dead by police. investigators have been working overnight to search the london headquarters of cambridge analytica — the company accused of illegally using data to help political campaigns. the uk's information commissioner was granted a warrant by a judge at the high court amid claims the firm used information about millions of people without their consent, based on a 2014 personality quiz on facebook. both cambridge analytica

and facebook deny any wrongdoing. 0wen smith has said he will continue to argue against brexit, despite being sacked from the labour front bench for disagreeing with party policy. last night he was dismissed as the shadow northern ireland secretary byjeremy corbyn, after calling for a second eu referendum. several labour mps, including chuka umunna, have questioned their leader's decision. hundreds of thousands of people are expected to take part in marches around the world today calling for tighter gun controls in america. the main rally in washington will include survivors of last month's school shooting in florida. last night the usjustice department confirmed it will propose a ban on bump stocks — devices which can turn ordinary assault rifles into machine guns. conservation officials in australia have confirmed that more than 140 pilot whales which became stranded off the western coast have died. fishermen made the discovery at hamelin bay just south of perth yesterday, prompting a large scale rescue effort to return the animals

to deeper waters. only six whales are thought to have survived. scientists have warned that europe's most active volcano, mount etna, on the italian island of sicily, must be monitored more closely after it was found to be moving. the uk—led team of researchers says a weak underlying platform is forcing etna closer towards the sea at a rate of 14 millimetres each year. geologists say there is no immediate risk to residents, or to the island itself. £38 million was raised during last night's sport relief. we saw the bbc beat team itv in the clash of the channels boat race! the amount is below the record £55 million pledged in 2016 — but organisers are still hailing the event a huge success. the main story this morning is the

death of the police officer in france, following yesterday's terror attack. the news of his death has just come through in the last few hours. more on this from our correspondent gavin lee. terribly sad news and we understand that this police officer swapped himself a hostage, can you tell us more? we did hear that from the interior minister this morning, did hear that from the interior ministerthis morning, in did hear that from the interior minister this morning, in a statement to say that 45—year—old lieutenant colonel arnaud beltrame died of his injuries sustained in the attack. he says france will never forget his heroism, the attack. he says france will neverforget his heroism, his bravery, his sacrifice. while he was ina bravery, his sacrifice. while he was in a critical condition last night the french president min micron described his actions as heroic, that he had swapped his life for others. in the last 24 hours, what we know is that arnaud beltrame was at the scene, we are told that he

was arrived about half an hour after 24—year—old moroccan born redouane lakdim took 24—year—old moroccan born redouane la kdim took postures 24—year—old moroccan born redouane lakdim took postures inside this shopping centre here, there are still forensic teams and offices here, several hostages managed to escape, someone here, several hostages managed to escape, someone hiding in a refrigerant and storage area. the officer asked to sort himself a 45 you are woman, one of shoppers inside the store who was being held. he kept his police phone open, it was left on this counter in the store, police officers were able to monitor it and when they heard gunfire at the snipers went in to shoot, they killed the attacker but as we know arnaud beltrame has also been confirmed as dead this morning. two other people inside the store we re two other people inside the store were killed, 16 people injured, and there was another victim earlier in there was another victim earlier in the morning, a passenger in a car in the morning, a passenger in a car in the nearby city of carcassonne, the names of the victims are still to be

released. you are needy area at the moment, can you tell us what people are saying, how people are reacting to this news, tell us about the area that you are in and how close is to major cities, how shocked residents are? this is a tiny town, close to carcassonne, a unesco heritage site, and it is a big tourist area. in front of the pyrenees. 0ne and it is a big tourist area. in front of the pyrenees. one thing that struck me is that i spoke to a number of officers yesterday who would not speak on camera, but one thing that one person said he had worked in a unit with arnaud beltrame, and he said it does not surprise him, he is a go—getter, he is someone who put his heart on the line footage of, and they are clearly all devastated. thank you very much gavin. time for sport now. we will talk about the football in a moment, as it was a pretty positive

game from an england point of view. i think fans will be happy, gareth southgate will be more relieved than anything else. the first half, people were saying it was like a big game, not really the top team, but the second half, but i have got to say, formula 1 season is back. you feel like christmas, you wait all year and then arrives, and we don't get the weather. but the question is, is it going to be the same old story? lewis hamilton, mercedes, making for yet another season. formula 1 is back with qualifying under way for the season opening australian grand prix. we'll know who'll be on pole position in around half and hour's time. the favourite will be lewis hamilton. the briton has dominated qualifying here in recent years, claiming the top spot on the grid four times in a row. and he was the quickest in the opening session, more than a quarter of a second ahead of the ferraris

of kimi raikkonen and sebastian vettel. it's not just raining in melbourne though — over in auckland, the rain wiped out virtually the entire third day's play in the first test between new zealand and england. only 17 balls were bowled and four runs scored this morning as the hosts increased their lead to 175 runs. play started early but after 2.5 overs it began to pour at eden park. there was time though for batsman henry nicholls to reach his half—century off 149 balls. but the umpires decided to abandon play just over an hour ago. the kiwis will resume day four on 233/4. and with further rain forecast england may yet get away with that first innings score of 58. england's preparations for the world cup in russia stepped up a notch with the first of four warm up matches. jesse lingard's first england goal was enough to see off

the netherlands in amsterdam, from where our correspondent david 0rnstein was watching. stepping out into the limelight, this is where england's world cup countdown begins. the first of four pretournament friendlies, and experimental squad vying for seats on the plane to russia. jordan henderson was named captain, and came henderson was named captain, and ca m e closest henderson was named captain, and came closest to scoring in a first half that offered reason to be encouraged. at the other end, jordan pickford was given the gloves, the question is whether he will keep them. after the break, england showed more intent and felt they should have had a penalty. they were getting closer, more dominant and soon, jesse lingard whether moment of integration —— inspiration, a goalfor his of integration —— inspiration, a goal for his country caused a celebration. he works incredibly ha rd to celebration. he works incredibly hard to the team, and this season is a real rate through to him, in turning what we see in training into matches. the nearest the netherlands came was a freekick, easily saved.

the disappointing dutch showing why world cup qualification was beyond them. england next faced italy on tuesday. for gareth southgate and his team, a job well done. not too much joy for scotland fans i'm afraid. alex mcleish‘s second reign as manager didn't get off to the best of starts. costa rica, six places above them in the world rankings, were comfortable 1—0 winners at hampden park. marco urena the scorer in the 14th minute. was a bit disappointing, we were never really up in the way we wanted to be high on the back three, and they still played out a wee bit, but it was a bit we were half—hearted, some new caps in the team. the rap sheet of former england women's head coach mark sampson has had another misdemenour added to it. they day after being sacked, it's emerged he was punished

for intimidating a female official at last year's european championship with a metal pole. uefa said sampson's behaviour "grossly violated the basic rules of decent conduct." rory mcilroy‘s preparations for the masters took a bit of a knock after he was knocked—out early in his final warm—up event. mcilroy lost 2 of his 3 group games at the world matchplay event in austin, beaten by brian harman. mcilroy says he hadn't recovered from his busy week in which he won his first tournament for a year and a half. cambridge and oxford university will face off in the boat race this afternoon. 0xford have won four of the past five men's races and are catching up with cambridge in the overall standings — it's 82—80 to the light blues. there is a bigger gap in the women's head—to—head — with cambridge leading 42—30 — but 0xford hope to narrow the gap with an experienced crew. this year marks 80 years since the event was first televised by the bbc. at 17 she's one of the youngest,

and often the only female racing driver in motorsport competitions. it's hard enough for shanel drewe to fit studying for her a levels around her training, but how would she cope with driving in some of the most challenging racing conditions on earth? pam caulfield went to find out. she isjust 17, she isjust17, but her career is moving fast. last season, she came runner—up in the michelin clio cup series, a launchpad for many drivers. she was the youngest and the only woman on the grid. she is also managed to achieve straight daysin also managed to achieve straight days in her gcses, and is now studying full—time for her a—levels. it has been really demanding, people at home here and at college and school never quite understood what i got up to on the weekends, never quite understood the sacrifices i have to make in order to be as

successful as i am now. it has been difficult growing up in my childhood with the racing, but i wouldn't live my life any other way. she is in the gym at least six times a week and has up to training in preparation to sweden. this is a massive test for my career. in the freezing conditions, i am my career. in the freezing conditions, iam not my career. in the freezing conditions, i am not in control of a carice, conditions, i am not in control of a car ice, having to learn way around the circuit, it will be a make or break challenge brass, but i am well after it —— up to it. break challenge brass, but i am well after it -- up to it. the first thing that hit me was the bitter cold, and the feeling in the air, and the frostbite in the air. ‘s —18 degrees today, she is about to drive on top of a lake covered in the foot of ice. —— a foot of ice. these are some of the toughest conditions to drive in. it is where formula 1 drivers come to hone their skills.|j never felt anything like it. her

instructor is swedish rally champion phillip carlson. you have to be really calm and soft with the steering wheel. judging her performance is a man who could transform her career. impressing graham quirk could win her vital sponsorship. he is a long—time supporter of female drivers. —— graham blew. howie —— difficult is it for women to get into motorsport? it is the only sport in the world just about a dozen of a female category. they neither category to get started. 0nce category. they neither category to get started. once they had a series competition against each other they can go and compete against the quite easily. it was difficult growing up not having any females to look up to in the motorsport industry, but i had to be a person when they push through a show women you can make your own way up there. but to make

that future happened, she needs a good performance right now. looking really good. good line. that looks fast to me. that is really good. time to swap places. so how will be instructed to? —— how will the instructor do? from what you have seen this weekend, how do you see her career progressing?” seen this weekend, how do you see her career progressing? i would like to help her, definitely, it is she ticks all the boxes. she is going to goa ticks all the boxes. she is going to go a long way. a lot of races attempt to make it in the sport, and it doesn't always succeed, but as long as you keep yourself focus on that path, anything can happen. at the moment it is a peaktime for us to push through. this is my time, is now an everand to push through. this is my time, is now an ever and i do anything i can. that's just incredible. it's good to

see somebody so talented, so young. we will see a lot more of her. and so focused, fabulous. here's alina with a look at this morning's weather. -18, —18, driving on a frozen lake, we will not have that. i promise you, nothing like that but it will be turning colder but this weekend, a fairly springlike weekend. some rain around today which will start to ease. the much of the weekend, spells of sunshine. the weather today, defined by this area of low pressure. it is pushing area of low pressure. it is pushing a lot of cloud across much of england and wales. some of that is on the heavy side this morning. the

coast of wales in south—west england. furthermore, more patchy. it will start to ease through the day. a different story. temperatures close to minus three degrees overnight. some sunshine and showers. wintry over higher ground. this cloud is going to be stubborn. still some patchy rain through this morning. maybe better brightness to the far south—east of england and south—west england and northern england where we'll see some spells of sunshine. quite windy here for a time. some of the highest temperatures. the best of the sunshine. clearer skies here overnight means there will be forced to many. showers rattling across the far west of scotland. but cloud slowly sinking southwards. really from east anglia all the way down.

further north, a different story. a touch of frost. tomorrow, many places having a fine day. good spells of sunshine, wintry showers. this cloud, very stubborn to go from south—eastern england. the odd patch of drizzle. most places, a dry day. we are in double figures the most. as we look ahead to next week, you may well have heard, there is a trend to something colder, particularly through tuesday and wednesday. there is a risk of snow but it's a few days ahead. for monday, a cold start to most. many places having a largely dry day. apart from western fringes. 0utbreaks apart from western fringes. outbreaks of rain through the afternoon. we are still in double figures on monday for most. as we had into next week, there is an

increasing chance we'll get something a little bit colder. we didn't hear the last bit! we'll be back with the latest news in a few moments. now it's time for click. not everyone is happy about the rise of the robots. this week, we will meet the people whose livelihoods are under threat. the robots, they go for ourjobs. and those who are doing something about it. including people who might have thought that theirjobs were safe. and we start with those who deal with the biggest things on water. this is how stuff moves

around the world. your car, your tv, your phone. they all arrive in a shipping container, one of millions each year stacked on gargantuan ships and sailed from where they are made to where they are sold. 0ffloading these containers at ports across the globe is a complicated task as they are lifted from the ships, moved to the land and then, when the right ride arrives, they are loaded onto lorries to be driven across the mainland. but at europe's busiest port, rotterdam and its third busiest, hamburg, something new is happening. some of the cranes here don't have drivers. and some of the lorries don't have cabs. these are europe's

first robotic ports. so what we've got here is a mixture of remote control and completely autonomous machinery and basically, there are no humans in that little bit at all. there is a very strict rule here. human dock workers do their work outside the red line and inside, everything is completely autonomous. ports across the world perform this graceful ballet of stacking and unstacking, but at two terminals at rotterdam and this one at hamburg, it's a dance that humans aren't allowed take part in. so what happens is, there is a human controlling the crane that pulls the containers off the ship and then loads them onto the central platform and then the human—controlled crane goes and gets another container from the ship.

another crane comes along and pulls the container from that platform and loads it onto these trucks. that crane is autonomous. and so are the lorries. while the world is still waiting for the mythical self—driving car, these trucks are already making their way around the ports transporting containers from crane to crane. buried in the tarmac are thousands of little tiny transponders bleeping away, broadcasting special id numbers. and that's how these trucks know where they are to within a few centimetres. and of course, that makes this a very simple environment to drive around, with a guide track taking them from a to b to c and no unpredictable human hazards. they don't even need sensors to see what's around.

the only reason that they need humans in charge of the cranes on this side is because there are humans on the ship and so the law says you can't let computers swing containers around when there are humans. so if there weren't people on the ship, the computers could control this crane as well. it's the same story at the other side of the port. the only thing the autonomous cranes aren't allowed to do is lower the containers onto the lorries because there are human drivers nearby so that part is done by a human crane operator, but from an office nearby. i mean, it's all very impressive. it looks really cool, but there is a flipside to this which is every one of those trucks that's driving around ten years ago would have had a driver and now it doesn't. and there are no crane operators in the middle section either. so while we are looking

at the future of work here, we really need to look about the future of the workforce as well. and the workforce at rotterdam has spoken. in 2016, 3,600 workers walked out to protest at increasing automation at the port. niek stam is the union official for ports. he says the dockers know they can't fight automation, but he does warn that as fewer and fewer human workers earn wages, there will be less money paid back to the state through income tax. so who is paying them at the end? if the robots take over ourjobs, who is then paying the tax? that's why i said it is time to discuss about robot tax. we still need roads, we still need trains, we still need schools and hospitals, so somebody has to pick up the bill. so if we can have an income, say, 20 hours working week, we also have a separate income from the

social benefits, paid by robots. i mean, if they don't like human beings anymore, that's fine. then we start fishing. but we want also an income. as a result of the strike in 2016, the port authority agreed not to cutjobs, and because the economy is buoyant at the moment, so far these workers are doing the same work in other terminals at the ports. the port of rotterdam told us that although: niek, though, is not convinced everyone will want to retrain. we still need jobs for people who are low educated, that like to work, like to be a comrade on the working place. they still want to work

with their hands. what's wrong with that? battersea power station. one of the uk's most ambitious restoration projects. at 42 acres, it's the largest construction site i have ever visited, and the race is on to complete refurb of this grade two—listed landmark by 2020. there are 2,000 skilled contractors here working around the clock. since work began five years ago, over 30 kilometres of scaffolding has gone in to rebuild the station's chimneys and painstakingly restore its 7.5 million bricks. it is no surprise that some of the more interesting work to automate the construction industry is happening in san francisco, where dave lee have been to find out more.

look, don't tell anyone, but i have been trying to earn a few extra dollars — which is why some days you can find me here, in this construction site. there is a ton of work to be done, but you know what? i don't care, because it is the end of my shift. i am really not cut out for the construction industry, but that's ok, because thanks to companies like built robotics, maybe i don't have to be. their autonomous system allows this hulking great thing to get to work without a human driver. it can be left alone to get on with the task at hand, which in this case is flattening out the land.

it is fully autonomous. what that means is basically, you load in plans for what you want your finished product to look like, and the machine looks at the plans, figures out how to navigate around the site in order to accomplish the work, and then sends commands to the on—board electronics on each machine, so they can go out there and do the work. noah is a former google engineer and he uses much of the same technology that can be found in that company's self driving car. but he says his vehicle has to consider many more factors when going about its work. a lot of nuance around how different types of soils interact with the blade, how the tracks spin and slip as you move around a rough jobsite, really the hard part

and that is what we focus on. it's not just here on the ground at construction sites where autonomy is changing how things work. a fuller picture, you need to look to the skies. one of the biggest challenges with construction, particularly big projects, is knowing what is going on and where. skycatch, also in san francisco, has created essentially a foreman in the sky, a drone system that can analyse sites with incredible detail and share findings almost immediately. it'd normally take weeks to survey an area as big as this, costing money and time. now a detailed scan can be captured in 15 minutes. these are becoming real tools now. before we had cameras, video, photos, now we can do real work with them. the technology inside these machines can give you data that can be immediately used on the field. at any given point, construction sites are changing all the time. you may know what is going on five minutes ago, five minutes later it is completely different. the success of this company

is of course good news for companies that are trying to cash in on the increased automation of construction sites. but for the millions who make their living — a good living — getting stuck in on sites around the world, life is going to change. so yes, thejobs will be reallocated. i think we will be spending more time planning, on making sure that things are done on time, but it will also have other really awesome effects. buildings will be built in days. it will be a lot more affordable to build a highway, a lot more afordable to build a home. so we believe that this will also help equalise how quickly people have access to homes. dave lee in san francisco. that's it from us here at battersea power station. this is the shortcut of the show, the full—length version is up on iplayer to watch now, and loads of backstage photos on twitter as well. thanks for watching, see you soon. hello, this is breakfast
