where mother nature provides a gallery for the modern art of barbara hepworth, henry moore and james turrell‘s skypace. this is a place where even the trees look like sculptures. hang on. this one is a sculpture. by the world renowned italian artist giuseppe penone. so, giuseppe, tell me about the rock in the tree. the tree is related to the idea of growing of the tree, that is attracted by light, and the rock is related to the idea of gravity force. penone is like the david attenborough of art. he spends his life observing nature to make work that heightens our awareness of its beauty and power. the tree, he says, is the perfect sculpture, because it balances the weight of life as all living things must do, with a poetic fluidity. a tree is between two worlds. the underground and the upper. so i have done this piece that is horizontal and in this point there was a branch, and i cut the branch.

i put clay and i have done the print of my hand. is this comment on the tree of life? if you want, it is possible! it is possible. who the better sculptor, nature or you? i don't know. the better sculptor is nature but i am happy. i suppose the answer is to come along and judge for yourself, nature's wood or giuseppe penone‘s bronzes. will gompertz, bbc news, the yorkshire sculpture park. that's it. newsnight is on bbc two in a moment. but now on bbc one, it's time for the news where you are. have a very good night. hello and welcome to sportsday,

i'm lizzie greenwood—hughes, the headlines tonight. new season, same old england after another batting collapse, in the first test against pakistan at lord's. to become the first briton to win the grand tour. while some liverpool fans arrive in kyiv for saturday's european cup final, hundreds could be left at home after flight cancellations. and lucy bronze becomes the first british player to win i was absolutely delighted to go. and lucy bronze becomes the first british player to win the women's champions league. so a busy day of sport

to tell you about, let's start with cricket and england's first of two test matches against pakistan started today at lord's. it was expected to be a chance for england to shine on home wickets after their dismal winter test form, but the opening day followed a familiar pattern as their batting order once again crumpled, all out for 184. tim hague reports. for many, but first home test of the year marks the start of summer. it also marks the start of something more special. his england test career. england chose to bat first. which quickly looked a bad choice,

as the captain lost shortly after,. yet pakistan, would hold up really well, and no mood to let up, took his second of the morning. in the winter of discontent continued to the summer, alastair remained defiant. and here is another as he, and later ben stokes looked to put england on the front foot. yet every time the host rallied, pakistan stopped them in their tracks. a big blow at a good day for pakistan which would become a great one after that. as the final five, to 16 which would become a great one after that. as the finalfive, to 16 runs, off the tee. and all that really only 184, england had to respond. a combination, did just that. only 184, england had to respond. a combination, didjust that. it only 184, england had to respond. a combination, did just that. it even with that breakthrough there, there

was little which these two sites would be feeling. simon yates is still on course to become the first british man to win the giro d'italia but his lead was cut in half after today's 18th stage. a group including chris froome and yates‘ main rival, tom dumoulin left him behind on the final climb of the day, managing to pull—out a gap of almost half a minute. yates‘ lead is now down to 28 seconds, with three stages to go. froome is still fourth overall. it's less than 48 hours until the champions league final in ukraine where liverpool take on real madrid for europe's most prestigious trophy. those liverpool fans lucky enough to get tickets have already had to deal with hugely inflated hotel prices in kyiv and now 1,000 of them could miss the game completely after their flights were cancelled. the travel company responsible claims they can't get landing slots at borispil airport. chris sutton is one of those affected.

i can't go. it's as simple as that. this ticket is just going to go to waste. i feel pretty annoyed, really. i have travelled previously, i travelled to basil with them a couple years ago for the final. they did not have me on the passenger ma nifest did not have me on the passenger manifest with them at the time. i am looking at this and it could be a whole lot worse this time. i did manage to get there that time. but obviously, this is the biggest football match in a world football. having a ticket, i was absolutely delighted to have the opportunity to 90, delighted to have the opportunity to go, and now that looks like it's may be taken away from me. it may turn out ok for fans like chris though, the mayor of liverpool, joe anderson has got involved and says he's confident a solution has been found to accomodate the flights. looking ahead to the actual match, the man who's masterminded liverpool's run to the final, managerjurgen klopp, is being heaped with praise by his players. he's had a big impact on my career.

but what he's had on this group this season, and especially in the champions league, it builds the atmosphere. the atmosphere is absolutely remarkable! liveable liverpool fans come everywhere. and how it performed illustrates what he is asa how it performed illustrates what he is as a manager. lyon are the most successful team in women's champions league history after winning a record fifth european cup. they fought back to beat wolfsburg 4—1 in a dramatic extra time in kyiv. 0ur reporterjo currie was watching in ukraine. a golden night! for the first time in11 a golden night! for the first time in 11 years at! a female european champion ultimately. for the first

45 minutes, the biggest talking point of the second half, was the goal? 0r point of the second half, was the goal? or was it was like at the showpiece event at the calendar. it was extra time that finally brought the drama, it all happened in the space of a few minutes. deflecting effort, but barely a minute later, they would return, live it to be shot or a second yellow. leon and neatly made the second plate count —— immediately made the second plate count. her 15th of the campaign. there was still time for her to write her own fairy tale finish. the prolific midfielder set to retire after the game, set the trophy.

their third in after the game, set the trophy. theirthird ina after the game, set the trophy. their third in a row. something no other team is achieved. when they left manchester city at the end of last. her place in history is secure. mauricio pochettino has signed a new five year contract as manager of tottenham. the new deal will keep him at the club until 2023. the argentine has been at spurs 4 years, finishing in the top three for the past 3 seasons. rory mcilroy is two shots off the lead at wentworth's pga championship. the northern irishman, who won the tournament four years ago, carded a five—under—par 67 in his first round, he is two shots off the leader denmark's lucas bjerregaard. british tennis player, cameron norrie has reached his first atp tour semi final, claiming the biggest win of his career. ranked 102 in the world, he beat america'sjohn isner who's in the top ten, to make the last four

of the lyon 0pen. he'll play frenchman gilles simon next. norrie played his first professional match on clay in february this year. elsewhere fellow briton gabriella taylor has lost in french open qualifying. it's been a perfect day for the red bull formula one team in monaco with their drivers recording the fastest times. daniel riccardo was quickest in both sessions, setting a new track record, as the first driver to go under one minute 12 seconds in monte carlo. his team mate max verstappan was the next quickest ahead of ferrari's sebastian vettal and championship leader lewis hamilton. st helens are looking dominant at the top of rugby league's super league. they've extended their lead after beating castleford tigers 40—18. saints scored a massive eight tries away from home. the win takes them four points clear of second placed wigan, although the warriors do have two games in hand. castleford, who were last yea r‘s grand finalists, remain fifth. now take a look at this, shock is an understatement

to describe the expression worn by this young aston villa fan haydn farrell, after he found out he'd been picked to be the club's mascot, leading out the team against fulham in the championship play off final at wembley this weekend. here's the moment he found out, take a look. how do you fancy walking out was like in particular, the captain? do you reckon? yeah! is one! you have one! you are walking out there on saturday. really. that's all from me and the sportsday team. coming up in a moment, it's the papers. hello and welcome to our look ahead

to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are polly mackenzie from the think—tank demos and christopher hope from the daily telegraph. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. the metro carries a message from the mother that beijing may have influenced kim jong—un's position on talks. the independent also carries that story, and reports on deadlock

in the latest brexit talks, as eu officials label the uk's proposals as fantasy. the financial times leads on the bank of england's concerns of a disruptive brexit after those stalled negotiations. the daily telegraph reports a group of grenfell tower survivors have accused the fire brigade of failings in their response to the disaster. the guardian's front page includes a picture of campaigners in ireland, ahead of the referendum on abortion rights tomorrow. the daily express has an exclusive article from defence secretary gavin williamson warning of the resurgent threat from russia. and the daily mirror reports on accusations of sexual harrassment made against hollywood actor morgan freeman. will talk about a lot of that, but let's plunge in first of all, the front page of the times and that really striking picture of president trump. very interesting face, it

feels like, we've come quite a long way from this amazing pictures of kimjong—un and... way from this amazing pictures of kim jong-un and... the leader of north korea. and such optimism and hope for the future, that we might actually see a resolution to the conflict. and it is all falling apart. we do not know what happened precisely. there were no north koreans there in singapore, and donald trump having been stood up, saying that i never want to go after all and cancelled. and making these extraordinary threats on nuclear weapons are so massive, a very tromping to say. i pray to god that they never had to be used. i think they never had to be used. i think they all do. it's a huge roller coaster. i think it's gone beyond next week. i have he knows that sly

stallone is not a real boxer. i think it's one of the, i think it's doing quite well on foreign affairs, but i think he's forcing the table, you got them talking. some of them is extraordinary on both sides, it's ha rd to read is extraordinary on both sides, it's hard to read the kind of what the true mood is, even in the white house. of course, these two make a huge amount of noise and the people we hear very little from this china who was plaguing massive role at every stage of this. it seems to me that trump is handling his relationship, couple of weeks ago, he was trying to bully china into reducing the trade deficit. and trying to kind of fight on that front as well,
