hello, this is breakfast, withjon kay and mega munchetty. two years to the day since the eu referendum and divisions are laid bare. senior cabinet members strike an optimistic tone about britain's future while anti—brexit campaigners prepare to march through london. good morning, it's saturday the 23rd june. also this morning: sir david attenborough launches a new campaign to tackle plastic pollution and says he's been "astonished" by the response to blue planet. so many people have written and sent m essa 9 es so many people have written and sent m essa g es to so many people have written and sent messages to say that they want to do something. and there are simple things that we can do, and people are doing them. thank you. the us navy is drawing up plans to house thousands of illegal immigrants in detention centres
6:01 am
on remote military bases, according to reports. in sport, it was a day of great goals at the world cup. this one the pick of the bunch as switzerland leave it late against serbia. and sarah keith—lucas has the weather. good morning. a dry and warm week ahead. the sunshine may be hazy at times that the temperatures will be on the kop. all of the details in around 15 minute. —— on the up. good morning. first, our main story: leading cabinet ministers in favour of brexit have gone on the offensive to mark the second anniversary of the eu referendum. the interventions come as anti—brexit campaigners are expected to take part in a large rally in london's parliament square, calling for the public to have a vote on any final deal. here's our political correspondent jonathan blake. two years on from the vote to leave the european union, the big three aqua three in cabinet are sounding unsurprisingly optimistic about the
6:02 am
uk's future outside the eu, that is despite the warnings we heard yesterday from bmw and airbus about the uncertainty they say is creating. in an interview recorded with the bbc earlier this week dr liam fox the international trade secretary to the prime minister was not bluffing when she talked about the possibility of walking away from the possibility of walking away from the negotiations without a deal. the prime minister has always said that nothing is agreed until everything is agreed and that no deal would be better than a bad deal. and i think it is essential as we enter the next phase of the negotiations that the european union understands that and believe that. it has added credibility because if we were to the economic impact on the number of european countries would be severe. brexit secretary david davis said there will be scary times ahead in those negotiations but that's a good deal was likely. using characteristically colourful language, the foreign secretary borisjohnson said voters did not
6:03 am
wa nt borisjohnson said voters did not want what he called abe role brexit. soft, yielding and seemingly infinitely long, as he put it, in response to that, at downing street source said the uk would be free to strike its own trade deals after 2020. and did another sign that divisions remain about how to approach except, later today campaigners will stage a march through central london, calling for the public to be given a vote on the final brexit deal. a fresh campaign to try to tackle plastic pollution is being launched by the bbc today. it's being fronted by sir david attenborough, who says he's "astonished" by the public‘s response to the issue following the tv series blue planet ii. it comes as new footage reveals how plastic is killing seabirds on a remote island off the east coast of australia. simonjones reports. searching for food but these seabirds are all too often finding and eating pieces of plastic. tens of thousands of shearwaters
6:04 am
repressed on its rita island hundreds of miles of the east coast of australia but even here plastic is killing them. and another. some young birds have so much of it in their stomachs to them by their pa rents their stomachs to them by their parents that there is no room for food. to see them emerge at 2.5 months of agejust food. to see them emerge at 2.5 months of age just their stomachs, you know, bursting with plastic, is just harrowing in a way that i could never have imagined. researchers are now trying to save the birds by flushing out their stomachs. industrial pollution and the discarding of plastic waste must be tackled. it was the bbc's lou planet to that opened many people's eyes, a recent survey suggested that the 2% of us wanted to make changes to our daily lives to reduce the impact of plastic pollution on the oceans. now a new season plastic pollution on the oceans. now a new season of programmes called plastics watch is going to offer help to change our habits. right
6:05 am
now, 8 million tons of plastics end up now, 8 million tons of plastics end up in the oceans every year. but you, by your responses, have shown that if we start doing those small steps that are easily achievable, we can, before long, really have an effect. whether it is cutting down on single use plastics or litter picking on the beaches, the message is we can do something. simonjones, bbc news. plans to house tens of thousands of illegal immigrants in detention centres on remote american military bases are being drawn up by the us navy, according to a time magazine report. the department of defense reportedly wants to build facilities on abandoned airfields in a bid to meet president trump's zero—tolerance policy against unlawful migration. our north america correspondent chris buckler has more. just inside america's border, only miles from mexico, this is one of the shelters were children are being held. and from the air, you can see young
6:06 am
people being ushered between the makeshift structures in what is being called a tent city. the pictures of cages and crying that have emerged from texas last week led president trump to reverse his policy of separating migrant parents from their children. he has given every indication that he did so against his natural instincts, and the president returns to arguing for tougher laws as he shared a platform with families who have had relatives killed by immigrants. they are not separated for a day or two days. they are permanently separated because they were killed by criminal illegal aliens. these are the families the media ignores. they don't talk about them. this border divides and the president believes his supporters on his side. as he pushes once again to the american authorities tackle illegal immigration. there are
6:07 am
reports that the us navy is currently working on new plans to build what have been described as temporary and austere detention centres. it is claimed the facilities, on abandoned airfield, are being designed to hold up to 25,000 migrants. translation: are being designed to hold up to 25,000 migrants. translatiosz are being designed to hold up to 25,000 migrants. translation: it is not ok but they are doing because you were treated like a criminal when all you have been doing is working. i don't take drugs or anything like that, i havejust been working. it is not fair with a to us. it is unlikely to be any letup in the pressure at the border and with congressional elections only months away, there will remain a focus on how america deals with the problem on its doorstep. crisp clark, bbc news washington. the pentagon has cancelled two joint marine training exercises with south korea. it follows the decision earlier in the week to suspend a majorjoint military exercise between the two countries, which was planned for august. the pentagon said the move was part of the agreement reached between president trump and the north korean leader kim jong—un in singapore
6:08 am
earlier this month. two thirds of drivers are not aware of the penalties for using a mobile phone at the wheel more than a year after tougher laws were introduced. a poll by the rac found that many motorists didn't know the punishment had doubled with offenders now facing six penalty points and a £200 fine. drivers with less than two years' experience can also face an automatic ban. the rules apply in england, scotland and wales. netflix has sacked its director of communications, jonathan friedland, for using a racially offensive word in two meetings. in a company—wide email, chief executive reed hastings told staff the language used had shown "unacceptably low racial awareness and sensitivity". you may have heard there is a foot oi’ you may have heard there is a foot or match taking place this weekend. —— football. no!
6:09 am
england are hoping to secure a place in the last 16 world cup teams tomorrow with victory over panama tomorrow. fans have been arriving in nizhny novgorod, where the game will take place. it's a city that was closed off to foreigners until just a few weeks ago, as sarah rainsford reports. this is nizhny novgorod, as it has never been before. a city closed to foreigners in soviet times is now wide open to the world. there are football fa ns wide open to the world. there are football fans from all over enjoying the party. there is even the odd england supporter. for now, though, it is the fans from panama who are most conspicuous. and some, like the lopez family are confident ahead of their match. what is your score prediction? 3—0. you were optimistic! many england fans have put off coming to russia about politics between the uk and this country but one thing has become clear with the world cup, russia is
6:10 am
doing everything in its power to show its best face to the world. so the covers have finally come off the onion domes. and the embankment is open at last year ‘s hidden behind a giant fence. that is where we found to england fans, and thejourney from moscow wasn't the easiest. seven hours in the back of a transit van from oscar at the nizhny novgorod. excited, should be a good game, we should win, not many people have said they had seen them win the world cup. the venue where that may happen is across the river volga, a brand—new stadium for a city clearly enjoying its brand—new image as a world cup party descends. nizhny novgorod! yes. that is how we will be dancing after the match. happiness! a california black bear had to be freed by police after finding itself trapped inside a car during a hunt for scraps of food. the footage, released by the placer county sheriff's office shows the creature stuck inside a vehicle near a campsite at california's lake tahoe.

i hate it when that happens! all the time! an officer broke a rear window so the animal could escape without suffering any major injuries. and ran away very quickly! that is the officer. the bear didn't really ta ke the officer. the bear didn't really take much time at all, did he? let's take a look at the stories making the front pages this morning. lots of them on the second anniversary of the brexit vote dominating by brexit again, david davis, the brexit secretary has written an exclusive piece of the daily express. he talks optimistically along with some other cabinet ministers about having an optimistic on a fantastic future, he says, for britain outside of the eu. this is an old one. a long time since i have seen a paper on the weekend without the word brexit on it. must be there somewhere. council

6:14 am
almost across—the—board, things are set to stay dry. warming up, the sunshine turning hazy at times. there will be plenty of sunshine and those temperatures are going to be on the rise over the next few days. you can see the yellow colours. replaced by these orange shoes spilling ink in the near continent. that means those temperatures are set to be on the rise in the next week but for today, quite a fresh start. give sunshine, particularly across england and wales. a bit more cloud the parts of northern ireland in scotland. a few spots of rain. try elsewhere. a bit more high cloud drifting its way south. lighter winds elsewhere. those temperatures doing pretty well, between around 17 and 18 degrees. it stays dry and
6:15 am
settled, lovely evening for a barbecue. still got that cloud to the northern scotland. dry elsewhere to start your sunday morning. not quite as cool as it has been. high—pressure well and truly with us. that is keeping a weather front at bay. elsewhere, not a lot of isobars. light winds, dry conditions. more sunshine tomorrow than look at out there today. could bea than look at out there today. could be a bit chilly around eastern and south—east coasts. temperatures tomorrow a few degrees warmer. 25 celsius or so. a repeat performance on monday. dry, sunny, a bit warmer and light winds across much of the
6:16 am
country. by the time we get to monday, temperatures in the mid— 20s. monday, temperatures in the mid— 205. it monday, temperatures in the mid— 20s. it is the outlook for some of our towns and cities over the next week or so. some of those just about pushing 30 degrees through the course of next week. somewhere through the midlands and the west of london when we see the highest temperatures. uv levels are high, pollen levels are high and the summary forecast. which is peaking at around 30 degrees. sometimes it's unbearably hot. i'm not complaining. but it feels like it has hit that, sarah. it has been pretty warm. we haven't hit 30 degrees. but the month of june has been particularly warm. i think some of us are crossing our fingers for reining in the gardens. some in the day, rain at night. we
6:17 am
are going to put out towels out to reserve a spot down by the pool. we'll be back with a summary of the news at 6.30. now it's time for the film review with jane hill and mark kermode. hello, and a very warm welcome to the film review on bbc news. to take us through this week's releases is mark kermode. good to see you again, mark, what have you been watching? there are interesting week, we have maquia, a visually stunning anime. in the fade, a socio— political thriller with a gripping performance by diane kruger. and overboard, the remake no one was asking for. i'm looking forward to that, but let's start with something i literally know nothing about. i know you're a big fan of animation, tell us more.
6:18 am
i knew nothing about this when i saw it. it opens on wednesday of next week, and it's written and directed by mari okada. the story is a mythical clout of celestial weavers who don't appear to age beyond teenage years. their idyllic land is invaded by marauders, by mortals. one of them is kidnapped and forced to marry a mortal king. another discovers a young baby who was wrenched from his mother's arms, and decides to look after the moral child. so it's a story about mothers and sons, mortality and immortality, and it's also a film in which we have spectacular visual set pieces and very small intimate scenes, one of which is here. so on the one hand you have that, and on the other hand you have these extraordinaire visual set pieces
6:19 am
with huge cities in the sky with marauding action, flying beasties. the film has a 15 certificate for fairly strong violence. and what i liked about it was i knew nothing of the story beforehand. it worked because it's very, very over crank and its emotions, their alternative to 11. it's gore is absolutely tugging at the heartstrings. and one of the things it's about, it's about mothers and children, but also that crying and trying not to cry. there are few things more cinematically winning than the sight of somebody saying and they won't cry, particularly when you're in a genre that can be amplified. it's not up there on a level with your name for me, which i still think was really wonderful. i thought this was really interesting, i didn't know anything about the story beforehand, it had real tenderness and certain moments that are visually breathtaking.
6:20 am
it's a bit narratively contorting every now and then, but i was never bored. it has several endings like return of the king. i was swept a long way because it seemed passionate and had a real intensity to it. actually when you go to the pictures, that's what you want, something that engages you emotionally, and it did that. i'm quite a blubberer. i think crying in the cinema is one of life's greatestjoys of. and clearly it is to be seen on a large screen, because it's so beautiful to look at? i thought so, i saw protected on a big—screen, and i thought that was how i wanted to see it. but when it comes out on dvd, i will argue... i'm nothing if not inconsistent. now in the fade, i'm really fascinated by. it made quite a hit at cannes, it got the golden globe for best foreign film. and diane kruger won the best actress award at cannes back in 2017. the story is she is a mother and wife in germany, there is a neo—nazi attack in which she loses people very close to her.
6:21 am
and the film then is about the way in which the legal response is firstly to turn on the community that have been attacked, and the way in which the legal system attempts and perhaps fails to deal with what has happened to her. now on one hand, it's an arthouse movie, a serious sociopolitical thriller with a brilliant performance by diane kruger. on the other hand, it has one foot in the kind of revenge exploitation genre that dates back to death wish. if you think of something like kelly reichart‘s night moves over here and death wish over here, it's somewhere in the middle. the film itself, i have to say, is somewhat uneven. but her performance is so convincing that you forgive it for the things that are perhaps less structurally
6:22 am
convincing about it. for example, during the court room scenes, which are shot with a gliding camera, it's one of those depictions of the legal system in which i struggle to remember a more reptilian performance by a defence attorney. he was literally doing a hissable villain, as the legal system lets her down. as i said, we seen a version of the story before, but she is brilliant and is absolutely nothing to hold it together. worth seeing it for diane kruger will stop overboard, which i rememberfrom my teenage years, did they need to remake this? no! end of review, that's it. i can't think of anyone crying out, asking if anyone remembers that goldie hawn— kurt russell film that we all kind of enjoyed up to a point, let's do it again. but this time it's gender swap, so in the original, kurt russell convinces her that she is his wife. she's a millionaire amnesiac, and he wants to get back at her so he convinces her she's his wife. but this time, anna faris goes to clean somebody‘s yacht, they are horrible to her, and she gets pushed overboard. and then the man becomes
6:23 am
an amnesiac, and she figures that to get revenge on him, she will tell him that he's her husband. i see what you're doing. here's a clip. is any of this ringing a bell? nope, nothing! we dated every time i docked! we would get frozen yoghurt and watch the sunset over the playa tortugas. that's where we fell in love! sounds like you're a romantic, leo. look, i admit there are many things i've forgotten. but from the depths of my soul, i know i'm not married to this woman. unless i see some real proof, i'm getting a slice of pie from the cafeteria. good luck, crazy lady. wait... honey? i didn't want to say this because i know it embarrasses you. but you have a tattoo of a cartoon mouse on your right but cheek. no, i don't.
6:24 am
you're really my wife? for better or worse, baby! and it's hard to believe but it's all that funny. i watched this in a fairly packed screening, and there is nothing louder than the sound of people not laughing at a comedy. and there is so much mugging going on screen, and get the comedy... the key reason is there is zero chemistry, absolutely zero chemistry between the two leads. so consequently, you end up worrying about the plot and thinking that it's really creepy. there's something, it's notjust that it doesn't make any sense, is that it's actually really creepy. not funny, a real shame.
6:25 am
some talented people involved in it, none of their talents are being used. and did we need a remake of it? really? no. why do they do this? let's find the producer and ask him sometime. lex and the dogs, not well seen, will i love this? it's not primarily about dogs. i love andrew codding, i think he is a one—of—a—kind film—maker. the story is based on a play, which is based on a real—life story about a russian child who left his apartment at the age of four, and lived on the streets of moscow with dogs. this is almost a futuristic fantasy in which this guy has now grown up, remembers his life with the dogs, and it's about number of things. identity, the condition of the planet, but primarily about time and the way in which the past and present and future coexist. it's a very difficult on to describe because the only way to describe it is to say you have to watch it.
6:26 am
i think it's really remarkable, and i think the film—maker is one that we should celebrate. you have to seek is filled out, it's touring around the country. it won't be playing in your local multiplex, it won't be going against overboard, unfortunately. but it's really something, and a there are dogs in it, but it's not turner and hooch. that might be a good thing. i like that movie! dvd of the week, it's one of those extraordinary films that you think about afterwards a lot, phantom thread, and it put me in the mind of what we said last week about the piano. i really thought it was amazing and beautiful without necessarily enjoying it. phantom thread, paul thomas anderson, daniel day—lewis's final performance, apparently this‘ll be
6:27 am
the last thing he does. i've now seen phantom thread seven times. and five of them and the cinema. the first time i saw it, i liked it. by the third time, i thought this is overtaking punch—drunk love. i'm starting to think i've become a bit weirdly obsessed by it, and that perhaps my response is not completely rational. but a lot of people really do love it, and there's something so striking about it. but some people absolutely hate it. i think it is a real... the first time you sought, you admired it but didn't like it. i found that it lived with me, and that is a positive. i love the performances. i'm someone who has been neutral about daniel day—lewis, but i thought he was outstanding! here is my advice, watch it six more times come and you will find that it will really get its claws into you. right, that's my weekend.
6:28 am
thank you very much indeed. on that thought, just a reminder before we go, you can find all the film news and reviews from across the bbc‘s online. all our previous programmes are on the iplayer, as well. enjoy your watching this week, however many times you managed to watch the same film. thanks very much for being with us, bye—bye. hello, this is breakfast withjon kay and naga munchetty. here's a summary of today's main stories from bbc news: leading cabinet ministers in favour of brexit and campaigners who want to reverse the result of the eu referendum are marking the second anniversary of the vote. international trade minister liam fox says european politicians need to know that theresa may is not bluffing when she says the uk is prepared to walk away if it is offered a bad deal. protesters are expected to take part in a rally in london's parliament square, calling for the public to have a vote on any final deal. a fresh effort to try to help people
6:29 am
do more to protect the environment from plastic pollution is being launched by the bbc. sir david attenborough says he's "astonished" by the public‘s response to the issue following the wildlife series, blue planet ii. the bbc‘s new plastics watch initiative brings together the best content to help you discover everything you want to know about plastics. plans to house tens of thousands of illegal immigrants in american detention centres on military bases are being drawn up by the us navy, according to a time magazine report. reports suggest this is in a bid to meet president trump's zero—tolerance policy against unlawful migration. it follows a climbdown by the president following criticism of the immigration policy which saw thousands of parents separated from their children. the pentagon has cancelled two joint marine training exercises with south korea. it follows the decision earlier in the week to suspend a majorjoint military exercise between the two countries which was planned for august. the pentagon said the move was part of the agreement reached between president trump and the north korean leader
6:30 am
kim jong—un in singapore earlier this month. two thirds of drivers are not aware of the penalties for using a mobile phone at the wheel more than a year after tougher laws were introduced. a poll by the rac found that many motorists didn't know the punishment had doubled with offenders now facing six penalty points and a £200 fine. drivers with less than two years' experience can also face an automatic ban. the rules apply in england, scotland and wales. if you thought some of your colleagues were barking yesterday, you might well have been right. that's because it was bring your dog to work day. it started 20 years ago to promote dog adoptions and yesterday, thousands of people shared snaps of their pooches working 9:00 to 5:00. may be on the night shift as well. this was a post from maybe the corgi on instagram who was hard at work in the office,
6:31 am
even if he did need his glasses to see the screen properly. is he looking at the screen? and this is buddy the staffordshire bull terrier who had protective clothing to help his dad out at the building site. health and safety! jacob and teddy dressed up for the occasion, choosing to wear these bowties. very smart! and of course, dogs in the workplace is nothing new. this is the presenter of radio 4's pm preparing for last saturday's programme. what was going on there? is that your dog? that is paddy o'connell‘s dog. we were doing a piece about how blogs can uniquely communicate, unique in the sense that compared to all other animal species you have a way of communicating with us that he very advanced compared to the rest of the animal kingdom. that is the
6:32 am
seem to be much communication going on in the photo. do you know that was the most quiet dog. only squeaked when paddy was the most quiet dog. only squea ked when paddy left was the most quiet dog. only squeaked when paddy left the room is that we had to have paddy in the room. he was distressed if he left. but it was fine, he was a lovely dog. mike's here with the sport. the recent momentum to the world cup now, isn't there? the big teams are beginning to stir, brazil were in danger but they have come good. argentina didn't kick a ball yesterday that they are alive thanks to nigeria and what they did. and today, tonight actually, germany have a chance for redemption in their second match so do not write their second match so do not write the big teams offjust yet. a busy day though. some great goals. some brilliant goals, and some late ones too. let's start with brazil — many people's favourites. on the pitch yesterday, they had to be patient before scraping past costa rica with two late goals. but it was a mixed day for their star man neymar as alex gulrajani reports. it is an emotional business, being your country's main man at the world
6:33 am
cup. especially if you are brazilian and you happen to be the world's most expensive player. life for neymar in russia hadn't gone to plan in the opening game and fall of the flicks and tricks against costa rica, the end result was usually this. time and time again his flow was interrupted by some untoward opponents. the referee, less than sympathetic to his cause. until finally, a breakthrough — a penalty, the turning point for neymar in russia perhaps? until the officials looked elsewhere. and had a change of heart. not what he wanted to hear. so with brazil heading for a second consecutive draw, it was his teammate philippe coutinho who saved the day in the last unit of the match. brazil heads over heels, quite literally for some. what could neymar in the game with a flourish? you bet. the trucks came off and their goal to finish. the main man backin their goal to finish. the main man back in form, pressure? what
6:34 am
pressure? i promised you some brilliant goals. here comes the best of yesterday's offerings — a stunner from arsenal midfielder granit jacka for switzerland to equalise against serbia, made even more difficult when you see just how much the ball was spinning when he hit it. and then, they broke right at the end. stoke city's xherdan shaqiri going clear to snatch the 2—1 win for switzerland. they're now level on points with brazil in group e. he looks quite pleased about. rumour that he could go to liverpool. what a signing that would be. now one of the worst aspects at this world cup has been the wrestling matches in the penalty box, when corners are taken. harry kane was the victim against tunisa, but this one was even worse. serbia denied a penalty, despite striker aleksandar mitrovic being taken down in a swiss sandwich went completely unpunished. it looks more like a rugby scrum. i
6:35 am
do not know how these are not doing anything about this. —— i do not know how fifa are not doing anything about this. meanwhile in group d, we got a first world cup viewing of the tournament's must—have fashion item — the nigeria home shirt. they sold three million of them on the day they were released. many more were left disappointed, as they couldn't get hold of them and they may have gone up in value after a stunning second half from ahmed musa against iceland. he added a second to give nigeria theirfirst win of the tournament in that now famous shirt that keeps argentina very much alive.. it was all that argentina were heading home but a second chance now. nigeria did them a favour. to england then, and it wouldn't be a world cup without a row with the press. although as fallouts go, i've known bigger ones about who puts the bins out. they play panama tomorrow, and manager gareth southgate has called on the national media to get behind the team after the infamous photo of a team
6:36 am
formation was held up, inadvertently for the press to see, and the papers published it and it's still getting plenty of coverage this morning. here's what manager gareth southgate had to say. it doesn't bother me in the slightest, it is a squad of 23 names on the sheet, the next sheet has different players in different positions because with people in and people out and the stories are being run as they are so me, no drama, obviously any time, if we were to give the opposition the opportunity to have an outing, gives us disadvantage so of course our media have the disk died were they want to help the team will not —— the side. —— or not. it isjust a squad help the team will not —— the side. —— or not. it is just a squad listed and it doesn't make a difference to us and it doesn't make a difference to us either. i'm sure panama are paying attention. he says it is a nonstory. but were the media right to publish the picture, or do they have a responsibility to support the national team? have a listen to a couple of former england internationals — danny murphy and jermaine jenas.
6:37 am
—— or should someone has been more careless about having the team sheet in their hand? well, it was an opening training session, it was a suggestion it could have been slightly deliberate. it gives us a vacuum and other things to get talk about, better to have the press talking about this. although the way he was acting he was suggesting there was something to it. actually there was something to it. actually there is an issue as to what role there is an issue as to what role the media has. well, the media is there to scrutinise. have a listen to a couple of former england internationals — danny murphy and jermaine jenas. with social media being as it is in today's world, things like that are not going to get up anyway, whether it is the local press that other or our own british press or international press, somebody is going to leak that story. so u nfortu nately, going to leak that story. so unfortunately, i get weather is a relationship there that has been built by gareth southgate and i do think it will still be there but to

6:39 am
31 degrees — so measures have to be taken. it's called the fa's heat management history and according to mike davison, football medicine expert, writing in the telegrap, the kit will be sprayed before kick off and then every player will change into new kit at half—time. as for today's fixtures, and at 1pm belgium take on tunisia — that's in england's group. then, at apm, it's south korea versus mexico. and later, germany really need to win against sweden if they're to stay in this world cup. boverage on bbc one and bbc radio 5 live. well, we'll be at england's training in the next hour, so more on that later. elsewhere, lewis hamilton was quickest in both of yesterday's practice sessions for the first formula 1 race to be held in france for ten years. it was a pretty dramatic day at the paul ricard circuit. the first session had to be cut short when marcus ericsson crashed. fortunately, he escaped that fire unharmed. qualifying starts later today. there are just nine days until the start of wimbledon and we still don't know if andy murray will be there.
6:40 am
he says he'll play at eastbourne this week and then make his decision. one man who will be there is the 3—time champion novak djokovic, and he's into the semifinals at queen's, beating adrian mannarino in straightt sets. —— beating adrian mannarino in straight sets. the huge difference between panama and england, the players line up every week to get their cheque, roughly £250 a week. interesting. very interesting. when big name music acts or broadway shows come to town, demand is high, tickets sell fast, leaving some at the mercy of touts who sell seats on at inflated prices. now, thanks to cutting—edge technology, one scottish arts festival is taking on the touts. catriona renton reports. everything is reminding me of you.
6:41 am
ed sheeran at this year's biggest weekend, one of the artist declaring war against touts. his dark at some secretaries —— he has targeted some secondary sites. to get touts joel tippett berkeley in later prices, sometimes up to eight times the original value. pop concerts and big events a re often original value. pop concerts and big events are often targeted by ticket a grip on, they snap them up as soon as they go on sale and then resell them at skyhigh prices. meaning fans, sometimes end up paying far more than their face value. no one we spoke to waiting to see demi lovato in glasgow had played over the odds but some had been caught out in the past. in cork in ireland ipaidi out in the past. in cork in ireland i paid i think it was 100 euros each for two tickets. for what? and they we re for two tickets. for what? and they were bad seeds. for my sisters, for ed sheeran. if you have paid a certain price you charge it for
6:42 am
that. cost me 200 and something for tickets for my daughter and her two pals so i got well fleeced. fringed by the sea is a growing art and music festival in north berwick. this year it expects to sell around 30,000 tickets and it is piloting a new system which tracks the journey of the ticket in the hope to beat the touts. it is a small festival with small intimate venues where the maximum capacity of 600 so what we see is that geeks can sell at ludicrously quickly the some of the bigger artist at last you we had kt tu nstall bigger artist at last you we had kt tunstall who sold out within two minutes and where those tickets went, we are not entirely sure because we cannot trust them as efficiently as we are with the new system. these are the performance of the future. it is hoped the technology the company working with the fringe by the sea is using will protect them and their audiences. basically what we do is we use identity profiling of each person to
6:43 am
make sure they are not a tickets tout or someone doggies with link with a wallet rather than a ticket, you are handing over your identity rather than just a ticket which can go the next day and we link it to a blockchain sir it is on an open letter and transparent and want to see. this is the biggest test of the new system to date. if it works here, the company says the sky is the limit to the scale of events it to work with and beat the touts. it's a lovely weekend for a festival concert, blue skies everywhere. you need factor 50. and a hat. it's going to be really hot. good advice, lots of sunshine on the cards, particularly tomorrow. certainly uv levels are still high. pollen levels are high as well. that won't come as a surprise. it's a

beautiful morning out there this morning. a fresh start to the day. here is the scene in cambridgeshire. this breezy in recent days. through the course of the rig can, and the vast majority of people, dry and settled. those temperatures are on the up as well. the yellow colours with us at the moment showing its pretty nice out there that orange colours drifting in the near continent. that shows the warmer air masses going to be on the way. many of us in single figures the moment. a fresh old night. plenty of sunshine on offer. just turning a little bit hazy as we had through the day. a bit more cloud across parts of scotland with a few spots of rain up towards the northern highlands, the northern isles as well. still fairly breezy across northern scotland. it will feel that little bit warmer. temperatures in
6:45 am
the north around 17 or 18 degrees. we could see 23 or 2a degrees down towards the warmest spots. again, a bit of high cloud drifting around. it won't be wall—to—wall sunshine. barring of bit of rain up towards shetland, most places looking dry those temperatures not quite as cool as they have been over recent nights but a fairly fresh start to sunday morning. high—pressure well and truly with us. the weather fronts just the far north clearing away to the northern isles. in dry across the northern isles. in dry across the board, not particularly breezy as well. a lovely day out there tomorrow. dry, settled and sunny. sea breezes keeping things cool. inland, those temperatures doing very well. a touch cooler further
6:46 am
north. that fine settled warm sunny weather continues into the working week as well. day on day, those temperatures are building at the moment. looking at the mid to high 20s dring monday. further ahead, through the course of next week, lots of dry weather and sunshine on the outlook charts and those temperatures are some of us hitting 30 degrees. particularly through the midlands, the warmest of the weather through next week. temperatures on the up, enjoy that beautiful summary whether through the course of the weekend. we'll bring you the headlines at 7:00. time now to catch up on the latest technology news, gadgets and apps in click. florida, america's sunshine state

and home to the us's first sustainable town. this is babcock ranch. powered, befittingly, almost entirely by that big burning ball in the sky. it's 33 degrees. that humidity is, i believe, about 1,000,000%. and i've come to a solar field, so you don't have to. 343,000 solar panel span some 440 acres, providing 75 megawatts of electricity. that's enough to power 15,000 homes. one of the big problems with solar energy has always been when the clouds come over or especially when it gets dark, the whole thing effectively goes dead.
6:48 am
and we haven't really had a way of storing solar energy until very recently. but over there, ten buildings full of batteries. so it's a start. a pretty good one, too. babcock has the largest combined solar and storage facility in the us. the batteries can store 40 megawatt hour of electricity, which is enough to keep around 2000 average us homes alight forfour hours. of course, lithium batteries are just one way of storing energy to use later. we've seen other methods before. there's electric mountain in wales, which holds water at a top reservoir until power is needed, it then releases it back down to the lake below. switzerland's air cave fills itself with compressed air and then blows it out to turn turbines. now, over in california, kate russell is on track to see a new solution.
6:49 am
since the oil crisis of the 19705, california has invested heavily into wind and solar power, with the latest state legislation calling for 50% renewable energy by 2030 and all new homes must have solar within two years. the state is way ahead of its target, so much so that they've had to start paying neighbouring states to take some of the energy from them. the grid was built to handle fossil fuel generated power and storage solutions like hydroelectric dams are in short supply. batteries, too, are very bad for the environment, turning unused renewable energy into not such a green solution. california—based company aries have come up with one alternative. aries was really an attempt to think
6:50 am
of a way to use the inexhaustible, always reliable power of gravity. we know gravity is going to be there for us. we don't have to worry about shortages or any of that. so how do we use gravity to store and then discharge power when we need it? one of the most efficient ways to move mass, which people have spent billions of dollars to perfect, are railroads. right. 150 years of experience, incredibly efficient, steel wheels on steel rails are one of the most efficient ways to move mass. dubbed the gravity train, energy is used in electricity to push its weight uphill. when you want to take the energy out you let gravity pull the train back down, using the friction braking to slow the train in order to make power. it's the same way hybrid electric cars like the prius work. you see those wind turbines
6:51 am
behind me, they're completely still, even though there is clearly plenty of wind right now. it's not because they're broken, it's because there is no more room to store the energy they would create. and that's the problem the gravity train well solve. when you are into access energy production, use it to power the train up a hill, when you want the energy back, centre the train back down again. this demo train carries almost five tonnes uphill, storing energy as it goes. a full—scale installation will return 80% of the stored energy, which is not quite as efficient as a huge dam, but has a lot less impact. the amount of energy we store is the weight of the train times the height of the hill. simple mathematics. so the more weight and the higher the hill the more energy
6:52 am
we can store. we need long, gently sloping plains. we had clients who approached us and said i only have steep, rocky, craggy mountains, so we have developed a new variation on the aries technology at almost vertical. in october, the company breaks ground on the first full—scale aries in the state of nevada. it'll be used to fine tune the inconsistent energy flows that are a natural part of using solar and wind power. minute by minute it will trim the imbalance between load and generation on the grid, so our trains may need to go uphill for a minute, they need to go downhill forfive minutes, they are constantly acting like a large flywheel that allows the grid to stay at exactly 60 hertz. it's early days yet and the concept has still to be proved in nevada, but it could help solve one of the renewable industries biggest conundrums right now,
6:53 am
balancing the ebb and flow of nature made enemy in a more substantial way. after we run 30 or 40 years providing energy storage and helping people we can remove all of our facilities very quickly, 96% of them can be either repurposed or recycled, so only 4% of our facilities could ever go into a landfill. we can then plant some native vegetation and six months later you would never know our facility was there. that was kate on a roll in california. back at babcock i'm going for a solar powered speed in an autonomous shuttle, with its chief financial officer. i guess the motivation for having these autonomous vehicles is that you're encouraging families here to not have as many cars. correct. our thought is that over time most families in the us have a two car family. our hope is that we can get from a two car to a one carfamily. where you have a car for the family, perhaps, but if you have it for a commuterfor work
6:54 am
you won't need it any more, you can take an autonomous shuttle or an autonomous vehicle to work. over time, which will take a long time, perhaps, there are no cars. i think, realistically, within the next 10—15 years you can see a time when you go from two car to one car. you think the us government at the moment doesn't... i think they get it. i think they're getting it. the government's a little slow to move, typically. in major cities, major metros, where traffic and pollution are an issue, technology can come in and save a lot of that. i think governments are willing to step up and make sure this comes to fruition. we're seeing that slowly. what we're hearing and reading about it a lot of major urban cores are going to become, there will be restricted access, if you're driving your car and you're trying to get there you can't get there — up to a certain mile, three miles outside of the city core you you can't get in to the city core without being in an autonomous vehicle, for instance. but outside of autonomous vehicles, building a city or a town that is sustainable, you're not going to be able to do
6:55 am
this in colder, more crowded parts of the world. i think that's right. we have a unique situation here, we have the benefit of scale. there are not many people who have 1000 acres of land. that is a big chunk of dirt. along with autonomous shuttles, babcock has its own water and waste facilities, and as and as well as reclaiming water, there is a restriction on the amount you are allowed to use. the tin roofs reflect heat, making homes 10% better at keeping cool, and the ranch‘s on—site gym is environmentally friendly, too, its powered by the treadmills. one incentive to get off the couch, i suppose. it is a commendable vision to build a town with all these sustainable values, but i can't help thinking can only really do this when you are building a community from scratch. i mean, could you imagine trying to retrofit an existing town
6:56 am
with all of these technologies? you'd basically have to tear up the infrastructure and tear down all the buildings and start from scratch anyway. babcock has been built in the style of older towns, to attract those who aren't necessarily fans of a new build feel. hi. are you expecting me? people like the kinleys. do you mind if ijust step inside your air—conditioning and stay here forever? they've got a robot vacuum cleaner, a coffee making fridge.... it's set up so it won't spill all over the place. ..and an electric car. for richard, a self—confessed geek and a real fan of click, babcock was his calling. just reading tech blogs all the time on the internet and it sounded fascinating to me. i liked the idea that it was environmentally friendly and was looking forward as far as energy solutions. in atlanta, we lived just downwind from one of the biggest coal polluting plants in the country. i thought that cannot be healthy. i think of it as guilt—free living. in the uk when you have a small town with a central area and you can walk
6:57 am
to, it encourages walking, so it's the lifestyle. and while the buildings may look like historic florida, for me it was also all the technology, you know, having 1 gigabyte of fibre optic, internet in the homes... yeah, you definitely like that. and that's it for the short cut of our sustainability special. the full—length version is available on iplayer, for you to watch right now. next week we fly up to boston, home of mit, which always has plenty of very cool innovations to look at. i'm really looking forward to it. in the meantime, check us out on facebook and on twitter at @bbcclick. thanks for watching, see you soon. hello this is breakfast,

two years to the day since the eu referendum — and divisions are laid bare. good morning, it's saturday the 23rd june. also this morning: sir david attenborough launches a new campaign to tackle plastic pollution, and says he's been "astonished" by the response to blue planet. will have full coverage of the and the fact there will be two sides on the fact there will be two sides on the brexit from today, the second anniversary of the brexit referendum and both of those for and against brexit are coming out in force.
