sunny spells and pretty heavy showers, especially in northern ireland. look at those temperatures, 14 ireland. look at those temperatures, 1a or 15. this is bbc news — our latest headlines. a shortage of special needs funding means growing numbers of children are being left without suitable school places according to the country's largest union for teachers. the newest member of the labour party's governing committee, the comedian, eddie izzard says labour must stamp out anti—semitism and rebuild relations with thejewish community. police on the spanish island of tenerife say they've arrested two people in connection with the death of a 9—year—old boy from northern ireland. pope francis has called for an end to what he says is "carnage" in syria and for humanitarian aid to be allowed to reach the vulnerable. the royal air force is 100 years old today. events have been held across the country to mark the time when the raf became the world's first independent air force. that it is.

suffered a major blow at the hands of london rivals tottenham. the 3—1 victory was spurs‘ first at stamford bridge since february 1990. spurs are now eight points clear of fifth placed chelsea with only 7 games remaining. nick parrott watched the action. sta mford stamford bridge is a fortress that totte n ha m stamford bridge is a fortress that tottenham have failed to conquer a28 yea rs. tottenham have failed to conquer a28 years. their hopes of changing that would have been higher had harry kane fit to start it. without him, that attacking threat was initially limited, whilst chelsea tested the difference a couple of times before alvaro morata found a way through. but in christian eriksen, but have a player who can turn a match in a moment. that inspired others to have a go. while sonny foot was left frustrated, dele alli wasn't. ——

son. chelsea's defence editor alli just four minutes later. around the last time this happened, it will be a long time before any of them forget. we started the game well. we weren't creating enough, i think. but, our back players and our midfielders controlled the game and moved the ball quickly, but are wondering enough at the top end of the pitch to threaten chelsea, and we we re the pitch to threaten chelsea, and we were unfortunate to go a goal down, but it was great from christian to give us that belief in the second half. today was a good chance to try and reduce the gap. but there are seven games to go. we need to try and do our best and i

think that after the whole season, you finish in the position that you deserve. really hard to see how chelsea camp collar fight for the champions league now. another team almost certain to miss out world be arsenal. arsenal beat stoke city 3—0 this afternoon with all three goals coming in the final fifteen minutes. there was a sparse crowd at the emirates and the arsenal manager, arsene wenger, admitted the lack of atmosphere was a result of his side not challenging for the premier league title. stoke have their own problems sitting second from bottom of the table. holly hamilton watched the action. with seven changes from their last premier league outing, this easter you could accuse arsene wenger of putting all of his eggs in the europa league basket. but with arsenal's100% record against second from bottom stokes, defeated today on april one would be no joke. from bottom stokes, defeated today on april one would be nojoke. but, the home fans were not laughing in the home fans were not laughing in the first half, with the visitors creating more chances, whilst arsenal only made it easier for a

spirited stoke side. after a controversial peden 80 —— penalty was awarded, aubameyang broke the deadlock. minutes later, the striker doubled their lead with their sixth goalfor arsenal. a moment of madness for badou ndiaye. that was a gift of a penalty. alexandre la cazette gift of a penalty. alexandre lacazette made no mistake to give the gunners a 3—0 lead. that means back—to—back premier league and arsenalfor back—to—back premier league and arsenal for the first time since november and move stoke closer to relegation. in the first half we we re relegation. in the first half we were too soppy and not sharp enough. not mentally switched on quickly enough, you know. the second half was much better, and we played with more dynamic, more pace. and against a good stoke side, i must say. i am

surprised only see the quality of what they shown today that they are down there. we'd slowly took control and maybe difference.” down there. we'd slowly took control and maybe difference. i thought we we re and maybe difference. i thought we were excellent throughout the game. i thought we looked really, really good. good chances to score ourselves. not long after that that arsenal got the penalty, but i saw craig after the game and i asked him what the reason why he gave it, and i respect the referee, what decision he made, but in those big moments, you've got to get their might. obviously, he has not got the benefit of a tv monitor, and we have. in the scottish premiership, hearts have all but secured a top six finish after a 1—1 draw against struggling dundee at dens park. hearts went ahead with less than two minutes played, when marcus godinho set up ross callachan. the home side though fought back and equalised when roarie deacon's cross was converted by sofien moussa.

dundee are still third from bottom — four points above the relegation zone.. chelsea ladies have moved three points clear at the top of the women's super league after a 1—1 draw at arsenal. unbeaten chelsea, who secured a champions league semi—final spot last week, were gifted the opener, scored by fran kirby. arsenal equalised at the end of the first half when beth mead ran from the halfway line and didn't need any help. arsenal remain fourth. the defending champions saracens have been knocked out of the european champions cup at the quarter—final stage. there was only one point between the teams at half—time, but they ended up well beaten by leinster in dublin. 30—19 was the final score and our reporter chrisjones was there. this was a test match like occasion played out epic intensity, and just like ireland act in two weeks ago, lei nster like ireland act in two weeks ago, leinster were too smart, too clinical and too physical. after a second—half blitz, they marched on

into the semifinals. joan lipsky has the story of the game. the path to clu b the story of the game. the path to club rugby's gritters prize is clearing. the challenge has come from across the continent. saracens are the last english side left and facing the irish has been a problem of less. irish six nations win had leinster on the core. ringrose's try was inside four minutes, and the visitors did in touch, but their defence fell away in the second half. they were outfoxed by dublin's dexterity. ten minutes later, more quick thinking but leinster in charge. james lowe was falling backwards, but finding points. saracens did manage to pull one back, but their challenge came too late. karen's score could not stop the leinster left. good feeling starter through this city when it

cotties starter through this city when it comes to this sport. a celtic clash with the scarlet awaits in the last four. so, saracens' dominance of europe is over. it is leinster who will face gunners back here in a few weeks' time, and on this evidence, who is stopping them. joining those teams in the last four on the french side, after they beat their opponents today. this try was the decisive score, with less than 20 minutes to play. they will blame munster in the semifinals. —— play munster in the semifinals. —— play munster in the semifinals. joining them in the last four are french side racing 92 after they beat clermont auvergne 28—17 at the stade marcel michelin. this try from marc andreu was the decisive score with less than 20 minutes to play. racing will play munster in the semi—finals. england's cricketers are on top heading into day a of the 2nd and final test against new zealand in christchurch. james anderson and stuart broad got all new zealand's 10 wickets between them.

they finished off the finished off the job with the final four wickets at the start of the day to give the visitors a 29 run first innings lead. opening batsman alastair cook fell cheaply again but the rest of england's top order steadied the ship and england lead by 231 runs. england must win the match to level the series. meanwhile south africa are closing in on a series win against australia in johannesburg. australia were bowled out for 221 in theirfirst innings with new captain tim paine last man out for 62 — what a catch by dean elgar!! south africa decided against enforcing the follow on, and by the close had extended their lead to a01 with seven second innings wickets still in hand. australia must win this fourth and final test to level the series. anthonyjoshua will be reflecting on a job well done last night, adding the wbo world heavyweight belt to his own two titles, by beating joseph parker on points at the principality stadium, but the talk has already moved on from that fight.. ..to what happens next. joshua's team has told the bbc they are ready to start negotiations as early as this week for the next step, a world heavyweight title unification fight against deontay wilder

to make joshua the first man to hold all four major heavyweight titles. david ornstein reports. here's one of the biggest fans on british sport. anthonyjoshua drawing another huge crowd, and continuing on the path to greatness. injoseph parker continuing on the path to greatness. in joseph parker came a continuing on the path to greatness. injoseph parker came a resilient opponent. it's made for a cagey contest. joshua was going the distance with the first time, but doing enough to try up on points, and he now has all except one of the heavyweight belts. nobody has ever held the whole lot at the same time. that is the aim. i think 2018 was a lwa ys that is the aim. i think 2018 was always a time to capture all of the belts, and we are one away, now. i think that the sky is the limit. belts, and we are one away, now. i think that the sky is the limitm has been a remarkable rise for joshua from olympic gold in london 2012 to the world's leading heavyweight in the space of only six yea rs, heavyweight in the space of only six years, and seemingly plenty more to come. the good, the bad, the ugly. the cnet. long may it continue, i

think. i'm not done. ithink the cnet. long may it continue, i think. i'm not done. i think i've got a lot of years left in me. if i carry on controlling factors like that, i think be around for a long time. joshua has now sold out... so the man standing between betweenjoshua and holding all four belts is american deyontay wilder. so the man standing between betweenjoshua and holding all four belts is american deyontay wilder. get ready for weeks of will they, won't they speculation. —— deontay wilder. wilder says he wants to make the fight happen butjoshua's promoter doesn't think wilder really does. that make this fight happen. we want the fight, let's make it happen. this is a simple fight to make happen, it is easy, let's make it happen. if they set up and were

serious about the fight, and were serious about the fight, and were serious about the fight, and were serious about what they had to offer them, it could happen, but they are so them, it could happen, but they are so erratic and unpredictable, you don't know what to believe. so erratic and unpredictable, you don't know what to believem wouldn't be boxing would it if it was predictable. hello and welcome to the film review on bbc news. to take us through this week's cinema releases is mark kermode. so mark, what do we have this week? a very exciting week, we have ready player one, steven spielberg

adventure, stop motion from wes anderson in isle of dogs, not that one! and journeyman, a paddy considine drama that really packs a punch. steven spielberg, what did you make of it. the setup is that real life in the future is squalid and people spend their time in second life as avatars in this great big computer game called the oasis where they can get possessions and accrue things. but if they get killed in the game they will lose everything. easter eggs in the game are hidden within it by its designer who is a benevolent figure who has now passed on. our hero, his avatar, in the game, is looking for the keys that will give him the domain of the game. however ben mendelsohn's slimy businessman is also trying to get

those keys so you have the interplay between the avatar world, the unreal world, and the real world. it works surprisingly well. here's a clip. wade owen watts born august 12 2027. i know where you are, you were seen entering the trailer, three days ago and you haven't left since. what are you doing? with all going on in this world do you think anyone gives a damn about some explosion in some ghetto trash warren in columbus? don't do this, i'm running in there. not for long. pick up, pick up, alice! it looks expensive, i will say that much.

it is a steven spielberg film! realworld, unrealworld, one of the things i liked about it is the interplay between the two worlds. the other thing is that the virtual world is packed with pop culture references from the 70s and 80s, early on someone produces the spaceship from silent running. i was won over, then that is the delorean from the film back to the future. you think this could become just about spotting the references but it is a real popcorn sugar rush thrill ride. you can tell spielberg loves the avatar world he has created. and you get emotionally engaged with the characters. it would be easy this to become just a technical exercise, when you spot the references and look at the visuals but you care about the story, the story makes sense and believe me if the story is set in a computer game and makes sense to me, it will make sense to anyone! i went in, with trepidation

and i watched everything with a huge smile, i laughed, i was excited, swept along by the action. i loved the constant pop culture references, some i got, some i didn't, it didn't make a difference. i thought, it is a really great popcorn candyfloss film making by a master who understands how to do this and who obviously has created many of the pop culture references to which this film refers. self—referential but in a way that didn't distance me from it, i would not have anticipated that. that is our easter viewing sorted! a shame because i was going to go home and say i want to see isle of dogs. i am a dog lover, very excited. i'm also a dog owner and a cat owner. it's stop motion from wes anderson set in japan in the future. all the dogs have been taken to nagasaki city and

sent to this trash island on the pretext of protecting humans from an outbreak of dog flu. all these dogs are dumped on this island and a young boy separated from his dog which has been sent to the island flies there to try to find him. when he gets there he finds a pack, they describe themselves as scary indestructible alpha dogs, their battle cry is let's have a vote. they help him find his lost dog. read this as a parable about outsiders and closed borders, or a story about leadership and pack action. you can see it as a lovely film about a boy and a lost dog. there is... is it fun, serious? both those things. really good fun, often very funny and because it is wes anderson, quirky and offbeat. some things in it are quite grisly. there's a sort of live sushi sequence, our young hero gets a propeller pop stuck in his head at one point and one dog is told to stop licking his wounds, literally,

and you even get an organ transplant, so it's not entirely cute and cuddly. it is scratchy. notjust the dogs, it's the animation. it has this lovely tactile quality and a very good voice cast, bryan cra nston, scarlett joha nsson. the visuals are breathtaking. as i watched i thought, i must see this again because you miss so much on a first viewing. every time you look at a frame it is full of delights, you want to watch it again. some things about it are beautiful, some are harsh, you have to see both of them. you have to see that and ready player one. i'm so excited about paddy considine. i feel physically winded from watching that film but in a good way. this isjourneyman, starring paddy considine, he has a title to defend and he's also a husband and father. in a boxing match he is punched heavily and severely injured.

he has a life changing injury and suddenly finds himself having to rebuild his character because the injury has changed who he is and what he knows and what he does. and also what he can remember about his life. this is a clip. that'sjackie. he's in your corner. who's that. that is ritchie, your trainer. and my dad? yes, you know him. that's matt. matt. that's me. yeah. my friends? yes.

who are they? that is a good question. that is one of the most poignant parts, because those friends... they don't know how to deal with it. what i love about this is, paddy considine is a personalfilm maker making films that come from the heart. the title isjourneyman which means one thing that it is the story of a man going on a journey. i thinkjodie whittaker, who plays his wife, is brilliant. you feel her presence even when she isn't there. the narrative is straightforward but you believe every minute of it, he's struggling to remember something. you can see him struggling, what he is doing through his physicalisation he is externalising something which is interior which is very hard to do, there's one scene when he's on the phone to jodie whittaker. his wife.

i was in pieces. in floods of tears. i am so glad you liked it. i thought it was terrific. you completely believe in the characters. i don't know anything about boxing. i have never been to a boxing match. i couldn't watch one, i can't watch something where you think somebody might get hurt and by definition this is what happens. although is evident that paddy considine has great affection for boxing. i think it's really interesting. three really interesting films, go and see any or all of them, it will be a packed weekend. i'm going to be busy. what is the best of the bunch. have you seen this film by lynne ramsey? promise me that you will see it. let me sell it to you like this. it is tough, joaquin phoenix plays a hit man character going to get a lost teenager and it has violence and brutality but it is done poetically.

done in a way which is moving, often funny and touching. and very poetic. not the film it sounds like when you describe the plot, i promise. in the same way that journeyman is not a story about boxing, it's not really about boxing. you will love it. dvd of the week? ingrid goes west, this young woman who can't distinguish between social media and reality. it reminds me of the brilliant film the king of comedy. it is kind of like a stalker story, on the one hand dark and sinister, on the other hand comic and it walks that tightrope very well. didn't get a big audience in cinemas but deserves one on dvd,

i thought it was terrific. thumbs up across the board. so much great stuff to watch. i'd be really interested to know what you think of ready player one and the isle of dogs. i will see them both. thank you mark. just a reminder, you can find all the film reviews from across the in bbc online. this is the address. all our previous programmes are on the bbc iplayer of course. particularly, this easter long weekend, enjoy your cinemagoing because there are some real treats to watch. a busy weekend ahead. bye bye. hello, though. a very happy easter to you. very many places dotted on a promising note. cold, frosty and with some sunshine. this picture from derbyshire pretty much debate
