6:07 am
near havana on friday. 99 cubans were among the dead, which also included people from argentina, mexico and western sahara. three cuban women survived, but are in critical condition. one of the plane's flight recorders has been recovered from the wreckage. the time is seven minutes past six. you are watching bbc breakfast. survivors of terror attacks and relatives of those killed have signed an open letter, calling on the public to do more catch those responsible. the widow of fusilier lee rigby and the brother of a man killed in last year's manchester arena attack are just some of those who've signed the letter. james waterhouse reports. the timing of this letter is certainly poignant, not only is it a year since ariana grande fans were brutally targeted in manchester in an attack the singer recently described as the worst of humanity, is also five years since lee rigby was murdered. it reads:
6:08 am
the signatories, including the brother of one of the manchester victims, say it is this hatred we must take on an defeat. we strongly believe it is well within the power of ordinary people to have a positive effect on how we handle these things. it really is about reaching out to people who, although they haven't been directly affected, can help us. this appeal is signed by d oze ns can help us. this appeal is signed by dozens of people affected by attacks, including those in paris, the brussels bombing and bali. it focuses on the memories of those being killed and not mentioning the names of the killers. there are practical point, to come forward if you know something or suspect a plot, but the core message is simple: to take on hatred wherever you find it. james waterhouse, bbc news. police have charged a man with the murder of an 85 year old woman whose body was found at her home in romford, east london on tuesday.

6:10 am
from the groom telling his bride how amazing she looked, to the rousing sermon from an american preacher — it was a ceremony full of standout moments. we will talk about some of them in a minute, but first, here's a look back at the royal couple's big day. # when the night has come and the land is dark. and the moon is the only light we'll see. know i won't. be afraid, lee rigby, iwon‘t be afraid. just as long as you stand, stand by me. so darling,
6:11 am
darling, stand by me. stand by me. stand by me. stand by me. i therefore proclaim that they are husband and wife. stand by me. stand by me. stand by me. stand by me. cheering. how brilliant was that? the royal commentator victoria howard joins us now. good morning. some of the best bits they are in that little clip. but just for you, what was the standout?
6:12 am
i loved it when harry lifted meghan markle's bay or. the emotion of it, so markle's bay or. the emotion of it, so in love. the biggest talking point, the preacher, that sermon. for me it was the juxtaposition of this american spiritual preacher in the st george ‘s chapel with murmurs of the establishment, theirfaces when that was going on. absolutely. something that we are not used to sing in this country, such passion and gesticulations. he overran and made the ceremony run late. it was very long. you could see there was a lee rigby on twitter going around, with an open mouth, what is going on? you talk about him overrunning, potentially there was some sort of rehearsal for all of this. the timing of all of these things, do you think we freestyle a little bit?
6:13 am
he had an ipad and did not look at it once. i think it was enjoying the moment and he had a captive audience, they were not going anywhere and it is probably one of the biggest sermons, preaching sessions he will do in his life. of course he is going to love it! in terms of the messaging as well, the power of love. absolutely. it was the random way it that he went there. david beckham smiling! bearing in mind, she is eight months pregnant and due any day now. he went on to say how fire eventually gave us text messaging and twitter, people were bit confused but memorable to shore. one of the most closely guarded secrets was the dress, we saw that. i was there! i was at the hotel for the morning and saw the moment when she left the hotel and saw her with her mother,
6:14 am
who looked radiant and what did you think about the dress? for me, so elegant. i like it having every, what country represented on the bail. i was expecting that, from all the work she has done with harry during the engagement, she has gone forever minimalist textile that is her way. i was expecting a simple dress, but the bail is lavery, that a deal is lovely. very simple make—up. a deal is lovely. very simple make-up. she likes her freckles, ships annoyed when they get photo shop out. and the significance of course, of her mother being there and there was a moment where they went to sign the registrar and charles reached out for her hand to get it together, a significant moment. of course, her own dad could not be therefore various reasons, prince charles was really touched to
6:15 am
walk her down the aisle was also supporting her with the hand gesture and that is notjust about welcoming her into the family, it is her mother as well. two families joining. so much pressure, 600 guests in a chapel and she had one relative there. i think that makes people feel sympathy for meghan because people can understand how relationships with families can be the first but she clearly had a wonderful day and so happy her mother could be there. she looked so proud. thank you, that tory. we will talk about that more later. and that magnificent music of course from the kingdom choir who will speak to later. this survey was glorious for the royal wedding, are we expecting much of the same? —— yesterday. a lot of fine weather today across the uk as lot of fine weather today across the ukasa lot of fine weather today across the uk as a whole, a cloud in scotland and northern ireland which liberal
6:16 am
bring some rain but the england and wales the sunshine is a little warmer. with the thickest of the cloud is, yesterday the cloud band was sitting to the north—west of the uk out at sea, it has moved inland further into scotland and northern ireland, producing rain and drizzle which will retreat towards the north—west through the day. a gloomy start across eastern parts of england. the low cloud again will be burning back towards coastal areas. sunshine developing widely the england and wales and the weather in proving across eastern areas of scotland. a warmer day, temperatures around 20 or 22. 23 possible in the south—east. low cloud flirting with some of these english channel crests in the south, cloud for west wales and into cumbria but thinning in eastern scotland and warming up here, 21 in the murray first. —— firth. down in antrim brightening up a touch. rain brightening at touch,
6:17 am
the cloud turning to thicken up by this stage, the winds white light, rain and drizzle around in scotland and northern ireland, dry for england and wales and a cloud for eastern parts of england and probably not as chilly overnight as the last few nights. as we head into the last few nights. as we head into the start of the new week, this is the start of the new week, this is the pressure pattern, a weather front is set towards the north—west of the uk, not moving in our way because it is being blocked by the area of high pressure from scandinavia. in fact the rain is pushing towards the north—west of scotland, westernmost parts of northern ireland, eastern areas will brighten up with some sunshine by the afternoon. sunny skies across england and wales as well, a little warmer. temperatures up to 23 or 24. late in the day, we could trigger one or two sharp showers and southern parts of england and perhaps into wales. the risk is there on tuesday later in the day but generally speaking it will be
6:18 am
dry. sunshine developing widely in england and wales and the weather continuing to improve in scotland and northern ireland by tuesday. the brain is out of the way, but if the developing and should feel warm the sunshine. the summary then for the week ahead, a lot of dry weather, 20 of sunshine, a little warmer as well and the winds white light so it will feel warm but there is a chance of some showers and if we are going to get them, it will be across more southern parts of england and wales but they are hit and miss, southern parts of england and wales but they are hitand miss, again, most but they are hitand miss, again, m ost pla ces but they are hitand miss, again, most places will be fine and dry. i will focus on the good bits, the sunny spells. that sounds good. now on breakfast, it is time for the film review. we'll be back with the headlines at 6:30. hello, and welcome to the film review on bbc news. to take us through this week's cinema releases is mark kermode
6:19 am
in his squeaky chair. what do we have this week? very interesting. we have on chesil beach, adapted from the ian mcewan novel. deadpool 2, satirical sequel. and the camera d'or prizewinner at cannes last year, jeune femme. beautifully pronounced. thank you, my french accent is terrible. the practice paid off. so, on chesil beach, an adaptation of ian mcewan‘s beautiful book. he's done the screenplay himself. it's about newlyweds in the early ‘60s. they go to a hotel on the beach for their honeymoon. outside, the landscape is wild and raw but inside the hotel, things are chilly and distant. it's clear that neither of these two people, played by saoirse ronan and billy howle, have been intimate before. as they move towards the wedding, we see the flashbacks to their past lives, their tensions with theirfamilies and their relationship, right back to their first meeting. here's a clip.
6:20 am
hello. would you like one? it's all about a hydrogen bomb landing on oxford. can't think of anything better. do you mind if i tell you something? i've got to tell someone. tell me. i say, do i know you? i've just heard, i got a first in history. that's fantastic. let's get on with handing these out, shall we? so, theirfirst meeting, very intelligent and accomplished young people, but they have
6:21 am
a disastrous wedding? basically, it's about the way in which they both have problems with intimacy and we get to see their lives up until that point. the difficult thing is this. it's a really, really well—loved book, it's a very intense book, and it's hard to put that on screen because cinema tends to be full of stories about sexy romances. this is completely the opposite. it's about emotional stillness. the stuff i think it does really well, i think the performances are great, saoirse ronan is great, she never puts a foot wrong. i completely believed in this couple. the other thing that works very well is that it manages to shift between the time periods, between the present and the past very well. that shift is delineated and distinctive through the music. the music tells you where you are, but it also joins scenes together. i think one of the things that may be difficult is that because it's not an obviously cinematic subject, they had to work quite hard with the way in which the story is told because a lot of it is to do
6:22 am
with internal issues. now, i think they've done that rather well, although i can imagine some audiences finding it tough. the key thing is that it's done with real integrity, real honesty, and towards the end, there are certain things which narratively don't quite work, but they worked when i watched it, because on an emotional level, they work. it's a real triumph for a film which is so much about emotional repression and has some really dark things going on in the background, that it actually was emotionally engaging. it's a love story and it's a heartbreakingly tragic love story. and very evocative of its time. yes. some people who have seen the book will want the book. this isn't the book. it's a film of the book. i should approach with caution. deadpool 2. yes, did you...? don't ask me, you know the answer is that i didn't see it. does the world need another superhero sequel? i was surprised by the first one —
6:23 am
i laughed all the way through. i thought it was doing something disruptive and anarchic and i thought it was rude. i thought the last third descended into crashy—smashy stuff i didn't care for so i thought "here we go again." twice as expensive, half as funny. all the special effects and fight scenes are bigger and slicker. an all—star cast. yet what we've lost is the kind of anarchic charm of the original. i laughed pretty much all the way through the first two thirds of the original. i can count on one hand the laughs i had through this film. the general feeling, i know some people love it, i know many of the fans who went to see it as soon as it opened really, really enjoyed it, and that's fine. from my point of view, the first film was trying to be kick ass and not quite getting there, but having some of that charm. the second film is trying not to be kick ass 2 but unfortunately falls into that territory. doesn't ryan reynolds carry it on his own, removing the fourth wall
6:24 am
and talking to the audience? the breaking of the fourth wall was better in the first film. the second one has four walls within four walls, which is like 16 walls. i did laugh out loud at that first joke. ryan reynolds does seem to be enjoying himself, but there's a general rule that the more you enjoy yourself when you're making a film, the less the audience enjoys it. too many in—jokes. we never have that here. jeune femme — it won the best film at the cannes film festival? it won the camera d'or, which is for the best debut feature. directed by leonor serraille, a brilliant performance by laetitia dosch. she's a 31—year—old woman whom we first meet beating her head on the door of her apartment, "let me in, let me in." she's just broken up with her boyfriend whom she was with very long time, a photographer who had a particular idea of her. we see her pinballing around paris, almost homeless, trying to find an identity which fits. she tries on several characters, one pretends to be an art student, one's going to be a nanny.
6:25 am
at one point, she goes for a job interview in an underwear store in which she ludicrously claims to be excessively organised and very tidy. here's a clip. and, of course, her life is complete chaos. i was reading about the fact that the design and the photography and the editing was noteworthy. you can see the editing there. a brilliantly made film. almost an entirely female crew. a fantastic central force in which this character pretends to be all these other characters while trying to find her own identity. the director describes it as a journey from girlhood to womanhood. that clip is very comic. much of it's very dark. i thought it was a brilliant character study. i really understood her world. she has this sort of really crazy nervous energy that can frighten some people away, it can attract and repel at the same time. it had exactly that right balance of comedy and tragedy. it's also a story about mothers and daughters. it's about somebody looking for an identity,
6:26 am
trying on identities. there was a film recently called personal shopper in which the central character tried on clothes, like identities. it reminded me of that. some people have made this comparison and said it's like a quirky thing, like greta gerwig or something. i don't think it is. i think it's darker than that. it's a brilliant character study of somebody in extremis, on the verge, somebody trying to find some kind of central position. i really loved it. you should definitely see it, it's a great debut feature. just from that little clip you can feel that energy, almost as if it was going to trip over itself. yes, and that happens all the way through the film. i wish i'd used that phrase. iwill, now, and pass it off as my own. it feels that the film is about to trip over itself. this film review stuff is easy. it's a piece of cake. best out, 2001: a space odyssey. you're not crazy about it? i find it immensely disturbing, which it's supposed to be. it's been reissued ?
6:27 am
it's 50 years old, which is scary, because i remember seeing it as a kid, a very young kid. a 70mm cut which they played at cannes. however if you've seen it before, it's worth seeing on the big screen. i've only seen it on television, and a little old television. you need to see it projected. it's a real big—screen experience. it's an extraordinary piece of work. it's frustrating and strange and mysterious and it's one of those films which you can watch over and over again and every time you see it, it looks like something else. it's worth seeing. if you've only seen it on tv, you need to on the big screen. best dvd, a fantastic woman. not in english? it won the best foreign language film at the oscars and deservedly so. it's just brilliant. it's basically the story of a transgender woman who's with a partner who dies and finds herself suddenly ousted by the family. again, it's about a search for identity, for a place in the world.
6:28 am
i thought it was beautifully done, a fantastic central performance by daniela vega. wonderfully shot in a way which sometimes looks like a dark and noirish thriller but at other times turns into almost a dance piece, a musical, in the same way that the shape of water, the guillermo del toro film, turns into a different film halfway through. i thought it was magic and uplifting and dealt with a difficult subject matter rather brilliantly. and her performance, remarkable. absolutely remarkable. mark, thank you. i enjoyed that, we should do it again. the pleasure was entirely mine. a quick reminder before we go that you can find more film news and reviews from across the bbc online. and you can find all of our previous programmes on the bbc iplayer. that's it for this week, thanks for watching. goodbye. hello, this is breakfast
6:29 am
with ben thompson and tina daheley. good morning. here's a summary of today's main stories from bbc news. the duke and duchess of sussex will spend their first day together as a married couple. prince harry and his new bride, meghan markle, celebrated their wedding at a reception in the grounds of windsor castle with two hundred close friends and family. they drove to the event at frogmore house in an e—type jaguar, specially converted to run on electric power. you can see them there getting into the car, meaghan first, harry driving. the wedding was watched by around a hundred thousand people in windsor and millions around the world on tv.
6:30 am
the ceremony was notable for combining british tradition and more modern elements reflecting the bride's african—american background. a gospel choir performed a version of the blues song ‘stand by me', while the most tweeted—about moment of the wedding was an energetic sermon delivered by the us pastor bishop curry. their eyes and their smiles and their reaction was talking back. it was non—verbal medication throughout the whole thing and you could watch them look at each other and even when they were talking on the way they looked at each otherjust sent a message that these people are in love, for real. a number of celebrities were spotted amongst the guests at the ceremony yesterday — my favourite bit — and some of them have taken to social media to congratulate meghan and harry. sir elton john, who performed at the wedding reception, posted a picture of the couple with a quote by american singer and civil rights activist maya angelou. david beckham, who was seen
6:31 am
at the wedding with his wife victoria, took to instagram to tell his followers how proud he was of the prince. no smiling from victoria, though. and actor gabriel macht, who starred in us legal drama alongside meghan, also passed on his congratulations to the couple. it's 6:32 a.m.. in other news: the family of the 17—year—old boy accused of killing 10 people in a shooting at a high school in texas, have said they are shocked and confused at what has happened. relatives of dimitrios pagourtzis offered their condolences to the victims and their families. the teenager is facing capital murder charges. authorities have now said that two supply teachers and eight students were killed at the school in santa fe. rail services across britain will be rescheduled today, in what's been described as the biggest timetable shake—up in uk history. almost a million rail journeys will be affected, including trains on great northern, thameslink, southern, and gatwick express. the train group says it will help
6:32 am
deliver vastly improved services with greater passenger capacity butjourney times on some routes will increase. cu ban authorities say 110 people are now known to have died in a plane crash near havana on friday. 99 cubans were among the dead, which also included people from argentina, mexico and western sahara. three cuban women survived but are in a critical condition. one of the plane's flight recorders has been recovered from the wreckage. more residents have been rescued from their homes in hawaii after being trapped by fast—flowing lava from the kilauea volcano. molten lava has been pouring across the ground, casuing thousands to flee their homes since the eruption began earlier this month. helicopters were sent to assist residents on the big island as a series of explosions sent ash clouds hundreds of metres into the sky. it's all about the football and
6:33 am
anybody getting the train last night would have seen quite a few disappointed manchester fans.|j would have seen quite a few disappointed manchester fans. i was on the train! a little bit of disappointment. a subdued journey? drowning their sorrows. the big event of yesterday, loads made of the fact that harry and meghan‘s wedding would be on the same day as the fa cup final. by comparison, not living up to the hype. chelsea have ended the season on a high, lifting the fa cup after beating manchester united 1—0 at wembley. eden hazard's penalty was the only goal of the game, as our correspondent natalie pirks reports. for chelsea, it was a day to remember after a season to forget. the pressure was all on chelsea's manager antonio conte, his star player eden hazard did his best to
6:34 am
lift the burden. that's a penalty! philjones saw yellow for this tackle, chelsea wanted red. david de gea, so often their saviour, couldn't keep this one out. a lacklustre united hit up the pace in the second half, only the offside flag can between alexis sanchez and an equaliser. paul pogba could have taken the game into extra time, but this shot summed up the match. chelsea were organised and victorious. losing finalists last year, their 13th fa cup final was certainly not unlucky for chelsea and their travelling blue army. after the match manchrster united jose mourinho said he felt his side deserved to win. i congratulate them because they won. but i don't think they deserved
6:35 am
to win. i congratulate because i am a sportsman and they scored one more goal than us and they get the cup andi goal than us and they get the cup and i think i have two do what my job asks me to do. i am manchester united's manager and i have to be respectful, not just united's manager and i have to be respectful, notjust because they we re respectful, notjust because they were my previous club, but because they are the ones who won the top. but i think we deserved to win, i think we were the best team. not a very sporting response. history was made in the scottish premiership yesterday. celtic beat motherwell in the scottish cup final hampden park and it means brendan rodgers is the first manager to guide a club to all three domestic titles in successive seasons, the so—called double—treble. iam very i am very lucky to get the chance to manage the club and a big thanks to peter and the board for choosing me to come in. you can only do your
6:36 am
best and the last couple of seasons have been magical. i said to the players before the game that this is a chance for you to make your own history. we have had some brilliant achievements, but like i say, to win todayit achievements, but like i say, to win today it will live with you and the family ‘s forever and the supporters. there was a british one—two on the hardest stage of cycling's giro d'italia. chris froome picked up his first win of the race. but it wasn't easy for the four—time tour de france winner, having to fight off some over enthusiastic fans. he just about held them off, and the challenge of fellow briton and race leader simon yates to take the victory. froome is now up to fifth overall. yates extended his lead to almost a minute and a half. british motogp rider cal crutchlow could miss today's french grand prix, after a worrying highside crash in qualifying. here's the view from on—boa rd crutchlow‘s bike. he was flung from his lcr honda, landing awkwardly on his back. medical assistance was quick to arrive, and he did give the crowd a thumbs—up before being placed in the back of an ambulance. his team say he's suffered no major injuries. crutchlow is currently seventh
6:37 am
in the world championship. those on—board those on—boa rd cameras those on—board cameras really provide you with... they must wear back races. they have this amazing material that they wear that feels like play—doh, all flexible, but as soon as the impact hit, it hardens and protects your spine. and it is the speed at which it happens, one minute you are on the bike, the next you are flat on your back and scraping across the car. —— tar. keeping with the finals theme, we now know who will contest rugby union's premiership final next weekend. saracens and exeter chiefs in a repeat of the 2016 season finale. sarries scored six tries and england captain owen farrell kicked a record 27 points, as they beat wasps to reach a fourth premiership final in five years. and it'll be a third in a row for defending champions
6:38 am
exeter chiefs after they beat newcastle falcons 36—5. don armand scoring one of their three tries in the last minute of the game. josh warrington is the new ibf world featherweight champion, after upsetting the odds to beat lee selby at leeds united's elland road. warrington, fighting in front of his home crowd, dominated in the early exchanges, with selby cut after an accidental clash of heads. the fight went the full 12 rounds. an enthralling battle and we needed the judges score cards to decide it. warrington picking up the victory on a split decision. on the undercard, double olympic champion nicola adams returned to action with a convincing win over soledad del valle frias. adams had taken some time away from the sport but now is aiming to challenge for a world title soon. it is the finals of the rome open today. there was a rather unexpected
6:39 am
visitor at the italian open in rome during one of the men's doubles quarter—finals, when the match was disrupted as a cat ran on court. it was lucky to escape injury after nearly being hit by an overhead smash. look! back again! having a bit of a chat downstairs in the sports department about purrwena williams. doing where it came from? if you have ever seen the aerial pictures of where they play in rome, the courts are sunk down in a park, it looks like you could wander along, what is going on down there?m looks like you could wander along, what is going on down there? it was the first time i saw, cat invasion, what are they invading? anything, given the chance. thank you. it's hugh grant's first appearance in a tv drama for 20 years. this evening, he takes on the role of former leader of the liberal party, jeremy thorpe, in bbc one's a very english scandal.
6:40 am
thorpe was accused of conspiring to murder his former lover, norman scott, in one of the biggest political scandals of the ‘705. charlie went to meet him and the show‘s director, stephen frears. think of the bigger picture. if you we re think of the bigger picture. if you were set on that committee and steer it correctly then one day, you could claim the ancient barony of four. wouldn't that be marvellous?” suppose it would, yes. it would be elevating, darling. elevated! everyone who knewjeremy thorpe said he was real charming, a matter about him, people warmed to him as a politician and a person. but there isa politician and a person. but there is a sinister side to the way he behaved. all the people who i spoke
6:41 am
to who knew him, some said jeremy was lovely and very charming and wouldn't hurt a fly. others said he was a monster. one and they all agreed on was that he was very ambitious, narcissistic and capable of being quite ruthless. he was a type, oxbridge, who used to show up at my parents are parties when i was at my parents are parties when i was a teenager. remember that time. very smooth, wonderful, never stuck for something charming to say and always flowed beautifully. and yet, do you really quite trust him? you know? everything. remember being young and these men coming to dinner and sitting on the sofa, their trousers would, like trousers do and there would, like trousers do and there would be the stocks held up by a garter belt. tiny things like that you latch onto that, that is who he
6:42 am
is. if you go down to north devon, people are very fond of him and point to a hospital and say he got that bill. that is because he was the local mp. and a very good one and liked. the truth is it is a absolutely natural tory area and someone said to hold it for the liberal party but 30 years is a real achievement. could you give us a sense of the time that it is played outin? sense of the time that it is played out in? some will be familiar with the story, others will not be familiar of the nature of the politics was and the society was at that time. it begins in 1962 and ends when the seduction happens, whenjeremy ends when the seduction happens, when jeremy thorpe met stephen frears. and it finishes in 1979, by which time jeremy thorpe had been through this part of the liberal party, become the head and in fact lost the 1979 election. give love him? —— did you love him. sorry old
6:43 am
thing, but i have to wonder, did you must make the is a man. did you love him at all, but even once, for a moment? that doesn't even exist. it does so norman, he seems to find it easy. there definitely is an element of the series which is a sort of, it is like the last hurrah of the former british establishment and what you see happening during our series is the establishment gradually dwindling, losing its power, the 60s happened and you end up power, the 60s happened and you end up at the trial in 1979 with norman scott, a self—confessed homosexual who, up until then, scott, a self—confessed homosexual who, up untilthen, the establishment have expected to be ridiculed in the dock actually having a trial and the jury and the press loving him and his honesty and
6:44 am
jeremy thorpe with his creation of privilege starting to look weaker and weaker and weaker. hugh grant there. here's darren with a look at this morning's weather. a few changes for the day. if you contrast across the uk at the moment. this is heaven, the sun is coming up and it promises to be a beautiful day. —— devon. eastern parts of england here in brighton, a grey, misty and moke shot, the weather watchers have been up early. the tickets cloud is further west and north—west, the cloud was sitting offshore yesterday and has now moved into scotland and northern ireland and is producing a bit of rain and drizzle. that would treat towards the north—west. the mist and fog across eastern areas of england, you can see how it burns off this
6:45 am
morning and sunshine of a lot more widely in england and wales, lifting temperatures and the weather im proves temperatures and the weather improves in eastern scotland and there may be one or two misty low cloud patches heading east but i think westwards across the english channel but otherwise a lot of sunshine for england and wales, warmer at 22 or 23, the cloud running through the irish sea but brightening up across eastern parts of scotland, sunshine and 21, improving in down in antrim as the rain gets pushed back towards the far north—west. the thicker cloud and the rain come back further into scotla nd and the rain come back further into scotland and northern ireland this evening and overnight. we make it a few heavy abreast of rain again. the low cloud is lurking in the north sea, it comes back inland across eastern england, probably not too chilly overnight tonight, it has been getting a little less cold over the past few nights. into the new week, this weather front is producing rain. it is in having further into the uk because it is
6:46 am
getting blocked by the area of high pressure, bringing with it an easterly airflow. the mist and low cloud across eastern you england begin burning off, sunshine developing more widely, in proving across scotland as the rain gets pushed back towards the far north—west. eastern parts of northern ireland also brightening at touch. those of the sort of temperatures so if anything, a little warmer. one or two sharp showers later in the day across more southern parts of england and wales. the risk is there again late on tuesday but not many of those showers. a lot of dry weather. the weather including in scotland and northern ireland. the range should be gone by this stage. the cloud is breaking out more and sunshine developing across more of the country on tuesday. the weather is quiet as we look into next week. dominated by high pressure, not exactly plain sailing, the chance of isolated maybe thundery showers across more southern parts of the uk, peaking on thursday, winds light, a little warmer, and if you have the sunshine, as most of us
6:47 am
will, as the bus will be dry, it should be a decent week ahead. i hope that is a promise from you, darren! it is forecast, not a promise! always the get out clause. we'll be back with the headlines at 7:00. now on breakfast, it's time for click. for the past decade, we've had our heads in our phones and our personal data in the cloud, on social networks hosted by websites in other countries as status updates. and it's not gone well, as big businesses have repeatedly abused our trust. in 2013, all 3 billion of yahoo! users' data was compromised in a hack.
6:48 am
but it was kept secret from the victims for three years. google was fined by the eu commission for using our data to push its own shopping comparison service. and no—one is impressed with what cambridge analytica did after sucking up facebook users' personal data, and that of their friends, through an app. for many of us, all this data hoovering and harvesting has been done with very little transparency or accountability as to why, how, or what they're going to do with these things. well, this week, click is taking a stand and saying it has all got to stop. woman: no, no, sorry, spen. can we try that again? it's not click, is it? yeah, sorry. this week, the european union is taking a stand and saying it's all got to stop. enough is enough. good people! the time has come to reclaim our online lives!
6:49 am
reclaim our personal data! let us not be fooled into handing it all over because we are cheated or tricked or given no choice! if you are with me, rise up and say "no! "no more!" good. i think they got the message. in a few days we will have the tools to fight back, wherever our data springs up. this friday, the biggest shake—up of data protection laws for more than 20 years comes into force. it is the european union's general data protection regulation, or gdpr, and it affects anyone who does business with people living in europe. and given the global nature of the internet these days, that pretty much means everyone. now so far, you might have encountered gdpr through all those e—mails you have been receiving, asking you to resubscribe to mailing lists, but lots more is changing than that come friday and lara lewington
6:50 am
has the highlights. the gdpr affects the big internet players in the us but also smaller organisations and aims to protect users' personal data. at its heart, it requires everyone to design data protection into their offerings, with privacy settings set to high by default. phone rings. heard this before? all calls are recorded for training and security purposes. well, that may not be adequate under the gdpr, which states that you must actively give your consent, rather than it be assumed, and that you can withdraw that consent at any time. so in this case, the company needs to wipe that call recording if you ask them to. eu citizens get the right to access their personal data and also find out who the company has shared it with and how they got it in the first place. if it was acquired in a dodgy way,
6:51 am
you can ask the company to delete it, as well is any data that affects your fundamental rights. and the data must be deleted anyway if it's no longer being used, so companies can't just hoard information on us for the sake of it. if it all goes wrong and the company fails to keep our data safe, then they must report the breach and tell us within 72 hours — no more keeping it hushed up. and if an organisation doesn't follow the rules, it can be fined up to 20 million euros, or as much as 4% of its annual worldwide turnover. for facebook, that would be a whopping 100 times that 20 million euro figure. , for facebook, that would be a whopping 100 times that 20 million euro figure. there are two more rights that gdpr introduces. ever been frustrated when this happens? computer says no. well, from now on, you'll have the right to an explanation if an algorithm is left to make a decision about you. and you should be able to easily
6:52 am
take the personal data stored about you to give it to another company, should you wish to change service or social network. but how workable these last two points will be in practice remains to be seen. now we will go into more detail with dan simmons. ok, what do people do if they are not happy about the way they think their data is being handled? if they want to complain, they have to do it to the national data protection authority. in the uk, it is the ico. i've been speaking to a security expert who has headed up security in big banks like credit suisse, like deutsche, like most recently barclays bank, and he doesn't reckon they're going to be ready come the big day when the new regulation comes into force on friday. the general public's very unhappy with the way their data is being used at the moment. i think there is a likelihood that lots of people are just waiting for gdpr to come in and then they'll want to take some action. i think my concern is that the ico isn't really ready for this
6:53 am
at the moment. strong words there from steve gailey. so let's put those to nigel houlden from the uk's data protection unit, the information commissioner's office. do you have enough resources to actually enforce gdpr? we certainly do. we're ready, we've been preparing for this for a couple of years now. we know what we want to achieve and we want to get the message out to the public that we're there to protect their rights and get the message out to organisations that they need to abide by the laws which aren't meant to punish them by any means, they're actually there to help them strengthen their credibility with the public. we deal with an awful lot of cases, full stop. our staff has increased by about 70, 80 people in the last 6—12 months. we're getting ready to recruit another 170 people over a similar sort of period. we know there's going to be more complaints. what kind of approach are you going to take to enforcing and punishing? the ico's always been pragmatic. the commission is always very much of the opinion that encouragement and education is the better way to go.
6:54 am
we would much rather use the carrot than the stick. as for this talk of big fines, it's nonsense. that's not what the ico is about. that's not the way we want to work. those types of sanctions will be for the most wilful, deliberate, and continuous companies that flout the laws and regulations. do you think this is just going to breed a new era of skirting the rules, gaming the system? they won't get away with it. you asked me about recruitment. one of the things i'm looking at shortly doing is recruiting a two—year comment into artificial intelligence to look at, deliberately, at algorithms, particularly opaque ones, and how we can investigate and build frameworks around that to order them properly, so we are well aware of what is coming and we are prepared for it. hello and welcome to the week in tech.
6:55 am
it was the week that facebook confirmed that boss mark zuckerberg would meet members of the european parliament to discuss privacy concerns and the fallout from the cambridge analytica scandal. microsoft showed off their adaptive controller — an xbox console controller designed specifically for disabled gamers. the device, which features two large buttons and 19 ports to accommodate extra devices, is due to go on sale later this year. and finally, if your main problem with the idea of a new han solo film is that it lacks a certain scruffy—looking nerf—herding harrison ford, then nick acosta has you sorted. the photographer and film—maker has digitally swapped alden ehrenreich‘s face with that of the slightly more iconic ford. interesting, if a little scary. next time, nick, two words — nicolas cage. the new european data laws will affect everyone
6:56 am
from this friday and simply getting prepared for them has taken over the lives of many people in all walks of life. it was last summer we first started to hear about them and hadn't got a clue how important they would be, why they would matter, if they would matter. there's just been a sort of growing sense of "oh, gosh," you know, "this is quite a big thing and it applies to us and we're going to have to do quite a lot of work around it." it is important in the sense that we hold a lot of sensitive data about children and families, but that's a responsibility we have always had and we have always taken very seriously. we don't feel that we have an accurate picture of exactly the minimum standard we need to be meeting. we've got to decide that. i very much feel the responsibility of getting it all right and i don't know that i will ever know for sure if we have done enough. and i read one article that estimated it was a three day a weekjob, this data protection, officer role, in a large school.
6:57 am
that's just impossible to find, you know? that is not feasible. so we have to think about how we can realistically manage that workload without it impacting them. well, that is a lot of work for people who, quite frankly, already have a dayjob. yeah, exactly. i mean, most firms will need to have, or appoint, a data protection officer. right. and this is where it gets interesting. i've been speaking to a number of security firms who reckon there could be a new form of cyber attack based on the confusion that businesses have around how to be compliant with gdpr, especially given those 20 million euro fines. take a look at this. although gdpr itself will help companies defend themselves, it also brings out a new possible way of attacking them by basically forcing them to pay a ransom fee. so, for example, if i broke into a company, stole some information from them, i've got a couple of choices then — i could try and sell it online for money, or i could go back to that company and say, "look, unless you give me £100,000,
6:58 am
i'm gonna publish this information on the internet and force you to pay a fine for your gdpr non—regulation." that's an awful thought! yeah. yeah, it is, isn't it? i mean, there are a lot of good players but also a lot of bad players out there looking at this new regulation and seeing how it's gonna hit. now that's where we'll have to leave it for the short cut of click. there's much more on gdpr in the full—length version of the programme, which you can see on iplayer right now. you can get in touch with us on facebook and on twitter at @bbcclick. and i guess we'lljust all have to wait and see how gdpr pans out from this friday. thanks for watching and we'll see you soon. hello this is breakfast, with ben thompson and tina daheley.
6:59 am
the start of their married life together. the new duke and and duchess of sussex drive off into the sunset for a party with close family and friends, after tying the knot in a service watched by millions around the world. the newly—weds sealed their union with a kiss, as crowds cheered on the streets of windsor. good morning, it's sunday 20th may. also this morning: all change for commuters. one of the biggest changes to train timetables has begun, designed to cut over—crowding. corruption, murder and forbidden love.
