8:02 am
england win! victory. euphoria. but england's success has posed many a dilemma. lee and alicia are getting married this afternoon near great yarmouth. they have decided to also show the match to guests, rather than ignore it. hopefully, it will be a really good conversation starter, as opposed to people just sitting around looking at their phones, hiding away. we hope england win, otherwise we might have a few miserable evening guests turning up. you hear a lot it is coming home. # football's coming home. tachbrook street market in london. with barbecues being readied, laura's meat has been selling fast. sausages, steaks and burgers. we are going to win the football, 2—1. come on, england. the british beer and pub association predicts an extra 8 million pints will be bought during the match,

pumping £24 million into the economy. maroof has never sold so many flags so quickly. this year, everything has gone. we have had to reorder from suppliers. it has been a good year. you have a pub just over the road showing the game. yeah, so as soon as they score, we hear a big scream, we can run out and have a look through the window. and you can restock them with flags, as well. yes. a nation prepares. temperatures are high. so too are hopes and expectations. our moscow correspondent sarah rainsford is in samara, where the match takes place. you manage to find a beach on the banks of the river volga. are they football fa ns banks of the river volga. are they football fans behind you? i guess they are probably russia fans because they are playing today, as well. it is notjust russians who have been on the beach in samara
8:04 am

8:05 am
about what is going on out here and so about what is going on out here and sol about what is going on out here and so i thought it had to be done. we have to go and win it now and i want to be here when it happens. how confident are you about their chances? not as confident as he is but i will still enjoy it. it was easy to get tickets and get here. a lot of england fans, hoping they can be part of it. when we booked it, there were reports about the id taking three days to turn up but we bought the tickets and it was there in 30 seconds so if we get through to the semifinals, go on the fifa website and come and enjoy it. and if they get to the final, you will stay russia? yes, we have no return flight stay russia? yes, we have no return flight so we will see what happens. 2—macro fans have made it to samara, on the beach, joining fans on the beach. the match kicks off at three
8:06 am
o'clock. with coverage on bbc one starting at two, or you can listen on bbc radio 5 live. in the other quarter—final, russia versus croatia kicks off at 7pm, with highlights on bbc one tonight. theresa may appears to have faced down hardline critics of the european union in her cabinet to secure an agreement that will keep the uk closely aligned to brussels after brexit. the deal was struck at the end of 12 hours of talks at the prime minister's country residence — chequers. some leave supporters regard the plans as a sell out. with more details, here's our political correspondent, chris mason. you know you've had a long day when it's midsummer and when you set off home from work, it's dark. this was chequers, the prime minister's retreat in buckinghamshire late last night. cabinet ministers met for 12
8:07 am
hours to discuss brexit and they agreed on a plan. a few hours before, at dusk, theresa may set out her proposals. we have agreed the collective position. the proposal will create a uk—eu free trade area which establishes a common rule book on industrial goods and agricultural products. this will maintain high standards but we will make ensure that no changes can take place without the approval of our parliament. as a result, we will avoid friction in trade, that will protect jobs and livelihoods, and also meet our commitment to northern ireland. the prime minister wants to see a facilitated customs arrangement that would remove the need for customs checks as if in a combined customs territory. freedom of movement will come to an end. and the government wants to be able to secure free trade deals with countries around the world.
8:08 am
but already, some leave supporters regard the plans as a sellout, fearing the uk will remain too close to the eu after brexit. and then there's the matter of how all of this goes down with brussels. chris mason, bbc news, at westminster. let's get more now from our political correspondentjessica parker, who's at westminster this morning. interesting earlier i was talking to sir vince cable and nigel evans and there is almost a cautious optimism that 0k, there is almost a cautious optimism that ok, the cabinet is united, but there is still so much detail to go through in the coming months. that is right and it feels as if a fragile peace has broken out among the conservative party but some tory brexiteers clearly are not happy and one mp tweeted last night, british businesses will continue to be a
8:09 am
rule taken from the eu. i hope the details are better than the breaking headlines. sceptics are calling for detail and might get it. the chief whip is holding a meeting in downing street today and theresa may is set to face the parliamentary party on monday but some say it is academic, because the eu will not wear it. we had a tweet from michel barnier, the chief negotiator in the eu, and he said... at least there is a sense of relief there is a plan to put forward and theresa may is trying to lay down the law. last night in a letter she said collective responsibility is fully restored. at least, that is what she hopes. thank you. the thai boys who have been trapped in a cave for two weeks have written letters to their parents, saying, "don't worry, we are all strong." the group's handwritten notes include requests
8:10 am
for different types of food, and appeals not to be given lots of homework. in another letter, their coach, who took them into the complex, has apologised to their parents. let's talk to our correspondent sophie long, who's at the rescue site. interesting the coach has apologised, i dare say it is the least he can do because it is a complicated operation under way. least he can do because it is a complicated operation under waym has been going on two weeks. this is day 14. we got that message from the coach, the 25—year—old, and navy seals brought out messages from him under boys and he said to the pa rents, under boys and he said to the parents, iam under boys and he said to the parents, i am really sorry but he promised to do his best and look after the boys had reassured them they were well. we had moving m essa 9 es they were well. we had moving messages from the boys, very sweet given their age, the youngest is 11. lots of requests for food they want
8:11 am
to eat, to be cooked by their grandmothers when they come out. and a request to teachers not to give too much homework. the rescue operation is ongoing and at the moment they are trying to prepare foran moment they are trying to prepare for an emergency plan should they have to activate it later today. time is critical, we expect heavy rain and the fear is despite efforts to stop it, the water could rush back into the cave bringing up water levels and they could end up in a worse situation than before. overnight, the good news, they managed to get an air pipe into the chamber, which helps oxygen levels that were dropping yesterday. they are also still digging holes, drilling into the mountain, more than 100, drilling into the mountain, more than100, and drilling into the mountain, more than 100, and most of them to get air into the cave, not necessarily to form a rescue attempt but that is still an idea they are exploring.
8:12 am
thank you, i know you will keep is up—to—date. police investigating the latest nerve agent poisoning in wiltshire say they've begun examining more than 1300 hours of cctv footage. charlie rowley and dawn sturgess remain in a critical condition in hospital, after being taken ill a week ago. investigators believe the couple may have handled a contaminated object. members of a global team of researchers say they've reached an important milestone in the quest to design a vaccine that could protect people from hiv. the trial, which appears in the journal the lancet, involved 400 people. scientists acknowledge there are still huge challenges to overcome but say they are cautiously hopeful. almost all wildflower meadows in the uk have been lost since the 19305, according to conservationists. they say that the survival of nearly 11100 species of insects that rely on meadow plants is at risk because of the decline. the department for rural affairs says it's committed to protecting
8:13 am
wildlife as part of a 25—year plan. it is 8:14am, which means it is less than seven hours until kick—off. it's been 52 years since england won the world cup, but that hasn t stopped fans from dreaming of another victory ever since. victory over sweden this afternoon will put them into the semi—finals. dan's in moscow. it comes to that point, there has been such a change to the way we view gareth southgate and the team. we are dreaming, but we adore gareth southgate at the moment. have you heard some shops are offering discounts on waistcoats for as long as england is in the world cup.|j have heard that. essentially it is only gareth southgate and mike busheu only gareth southgate and mike bushell who wear waistcoats in england! you talked about dreaming
8:14 am
andi england! you talked about dreaming and i can introduce you to a man who hardly dreamt to door because he hardly dreamt to door because he hardly slept, former england captain alan shearer. you are excited? i cannot wait, i am so excited. it is coming home, daniel! do not get carried away. what will you like when you were a player?” carried away. what will you like when you were a player? i was fine, i never had a problem sleeping before a game, it is worse as a fan. you are in control when you play but you sometimes have to be in agony, sitting and watching as a support. you played in euro 96 in england. are you aware of the madness going on at home? living in a social media age when players see fans go wild when they score goals. we were not aware of it in euro 96 to begin with but of course, the longer the tournament goes on, we went into the local village after beating holland in the third game. it was absolutely
8:15 am
crazy. everyone gets a sense, we can certainly feel it in moscow, that back home it is going berserk and everyone enjoys it and wants england to do well and carry on and everybody is having great fun. for the players, they will see that, every time they look at social media, they get newspapers and watch programmes like we are. i am sure they are loving it and enjoying it as much as we are. alan will be part of the bbc coverage later, you will not wear a waistcoat in the studio! judging thejob gareth not wear a waistcoat in the studio! judging the job gareth southgate has done so far, you are a fan of harry kane. how important has the role of the manager being? he has been a calming influence, he has been sensible in every decision he has made, other than resting players for the belgian game, but in a way that has worked out with the root england have been given, hopefully. i have
8:16 am
been very impressed. he has had a lot of these players in the younger age group and a lot of them know him and they respect him and he is getting the best out of the group. for what we lack in ability we more than make up with team spirit and if you put that together, you have a chance. sweden are looking at us, thinking there is alan shearer singing it's coming home. but based on history and their current form, they are a tough nut to crack. they are a tough team with three clean sheets out of four and to get to russia they were in the same group as france beat france, they beat italy. if we need more evidence to tell us this is going to be a tough game, just look at that. what about the last game against colombia? you know what it is like to lose and to
8:17 am
wina know what it is like to lose and to win a penalty shoot out. england had never won penalty shoot out in the world cup. surely going to a game when it could go to penalties it must be a mental boost to the players. that will give them huge confidence. you can see the relief from the manager and staff. i know they have worked hard on that side of things. gareth has had to live with missing a penalty since euro 96. now he can forget about that. you can see the relief for his players, him, his staff, and if it happens again they have nothing to fear. i am going to be negative. england squeezed past tunisia and managed to thrash a terrible panama side and lost to belgium and squeeze past colombia, who were by no means the best team in the competition. this is, you are getting carried away, alan. why not? it is not very
8:18 am
often... you can come along and be happy and support england and england have the whole country excited and it does not happen often, so let's enjoy it, be positive, and hopefully we can get the right result and look forward to a semifinal. they are trying to get to the semifinals of the first time since 1990. i know you have been annoyed with neymar at this world cup. he has incredible ability, whether he is running at the ball, technique, superb. on the other side, i dislike the diving and trying to cheat and win his team a penalty. there is no need. he sticks out his foot, tries to get contact. it isa out his foot, tries to get contact. it is a clear dive. it worked against him and his team ten minutes later because jesus was fouled by vincent kompany in the box and it
8:19 am
should've been a penalty, but it was a tough decision. it went him because the guys in the va are an referee will look at neymar earthing, you are trying to cheat us into a decision and that is why it we nt into a decision and that is why it went against them. some people are getting married today. who schedules a wedding during the world cup? on a saturday! get married on a friday! and you think it is possibly coming home? possibly, might be, hopefully. fingers crossed. former england captain alan shearer says it is possibly, might be hopefully coming home. there is always the aspect of getting overexcited i would love to hear alan's thoughts on embracing gareth southgate. i saw an interview he did when he was like, i am no david beckham. he is modest, but he
8:20 am
has won asked over and you must be pleased, alan, for him?|j has won asked over and you must be pleased, alan, for him? i am delighted for him because he is a really nice guy and he has had to live in go through a lot. he has had nothing on a plate. worked for everything he has now he has an incredible opportunity with this team. ithink incredible opportunity with this team. i think they have energy, they give him everything. there is plenty of reason to be optimistic. i hope he does it because he is a nice guy who has worked incredibly hard to be in this position. we were in the dressing room of an fa cup game some seasons ago. alan gave the team a tea m seasons ago. alan gave the team a team talk and said one of you guys can bea team talk and said one of you guys can be a hero, this is a chance for you to be remembered for ever. i know it is a different competition, on the world stage, but it is a strong message for any team in this world cup and for england.” strong message for any team in this world cup and for england. i said it on the first programme when we
8:21 am
played tunisia, i said it could be a life changing opportunity for someone. and the dream is still alive and i hope the players realise that. this could be huge. go and get some sleep! we will see alan later, pa rt some sleep! we will see alan later, part of the bbc team from 2pm on bbc one. the build—up to the quarterfinal and the match kicks off at 3pm. if you are getting married, sorted out early and get in front of a telly! damn, there are some things more than football. —— dan walker, i am just putting it out there. one person says spare a thought for my son who lives in sweden. his workmates have been teasing him remorselessly. then, tell us about the weather. so much excitement and tension but not much excitement and tension but not much tension about the weather because it is more of the same.
8:22 am
beautiful start to the day and a beautiful weekend. the dry weather the heat and sunshine. this is the satellite picture. there is cloud on the eastern coast of scotland. and also parts of the irish sea coasts in wales and england. there is a small chance of a shower in the south—east and we will see more cloud across northern ireland and western scotland but i am picking out the exceptions. the rule is a lot of blue skies and sunshine. this is how the forecast looks at 3pm. if you are out watching the game, most places basking in the sunshine. a small chance of the odd shower in the south. this is the forecast for the south. this is the forecast for the match. going underneath the
8:23 am
cloud to see how things are shaping up cloud to see how things are shaping up at the samara arena. patchy cloud but blue sky and sunshine. the temperature in russia around kick—off, 26 degrees and barely a breath of wind. i suspect it will be hot for some players. at wimbledon, 30 degrees is the top temperature through the afternoon with a lot of blue sky and sunshine. i mentioned the small chance of a shower in the south—east in late afternoon, otherwise we take fine weather into the evening. overnight, clearskies. the western side of northern ireland and scotland, cloud moving in with the odd spot of drizzle. the head of it, humidity. 15—19 is the overnight low. behind the weather front, slightly cooler air trying to make its way into the picture and it will only get into the far north—west of the country tomorrow. more of the
8:24 am
breeze behind it. in south—east scotland, northern ireland, england and wales, sunny skies and another day of heat. temperatures well up into the 20s, perhaps getting into the low 30s. as far as the weekend goes, mainly dry, warm and sunny. you're watching breakfast from bbc news. it's time now for a look at the newspapers. guardian film critic peter bradshaw is here to tell us what's caught his eye. good morning. football, quickly. there is other news! on the sun newspaper, they have gone to town. saying, we will
8:25 am
be champions once more. yes, they have gone for abba on the front page which is all right. especially after the controversy of the colombia front page. i thought the metro was better when it said we will send them flat packing. i like that one, mamma mia. part of the great national euphoria. this is quite clever. yes, presumably they want people to put it in the window. "the squad is young but these lions will leave no stone unturned." that must‘ve taken a long time to do. good luck them. three lions has
8:26 am
become this generation's all you need is love. it is about unity, teamwork. it looks like theresa may is managing to at least, i don't know, ensure she has an image of this. this is interesting. number 10 downing st has extensively briefed papers about the chequers meeting. just to enforce unity on any whisperers and counter briefings. they have created this marvellous overhead shot of everybody meeting to say to anybody, look, this is history in the making, you cannot change your mind now, this is bigger than all of you. this is huge. it is
8:27 am
interesting to deconstruct the image. the only men knocked in collars and ties are boris and david davis. they are the people who seem to signal that there is still work to signal that there is still work to be done. still some negotiating to be done. still some negotiating to be done. but the number 10 media tea m to be done. but the number 10 media team is telling them, this is it, this is history. signed, sealed, delivered. but it now has to be ratified. as far as we are concerned. that is an interesting media iconography. maybe they need help from these guys. this is the incredible. i am very excited. the incredible. i am very excited. the incredible is is the high watermark of the boom in digital animation. it has been over ten years. 2004, you would not believe it. i think it is
8:28 am
the greatest pixar animation. it is one of the most intensely anticipated sequels i can remember. the incredible ‘s came out before the superhero boom. if you watch it again, it is interestingly satirical about super heroism in the way that is not encourage now. so slightly more difficult to bring. view as a film critic, interesting that you pick an animation. i would not dream of patronising cartoons, animation, they are the most intensely cinematic experience and japan and hollywood has shown us the way. and they have generated enormous amounts of money in merchandise. that is true, it need not concern us but thatis true, it need not concern us but that is true. that will be a big thing. i hope i am not disappointed because incredibles is such a wonderfulfilm. when is it at? this
8:29 am
coming friday. we will talk to you again in an hour. thank you for the moment. stay with us, headlines coming up. hello, this is breakfast with rogerjohnson and naga munchetty. coming up before nine, we'll get the weather from ben, but first a summary of this morning's main news. millions of people are expected to stop what they're doing this afternoon to watch england take on sweden in the world cup quarter—finals. manager gareth southgate says his players want to make history. if they win, a match against russia or croatia will be all that stands between them and the final. theresa may appears to have faced down hardline critics of the european union in her cabinet to secure an agreement that will keep the uk closely aligned to brussels after brexit. in a letter to conservative mps last night, the prime minister said she expected full support from her ministers. some leave supporters regard the plans as a sellout. earlier on breakfast, the leave—supporting conservative mp nigel evans told us the proposals demand further scrutiny. you could call it the miracle
8:30 am
at chequers last month, the fact that the cabinet now have come out with a unified line, so that's good as far as it goes. we have the briefings today at downing street and they'll continue on monday for mps who can't make today. the important thing within parliament is whether there is a majority to back this particular deal. if borisjohnson supports it, david davis and liam fox and some of the others who are arch—brexiteers within the cabinet, then at least i'm going to give it a fair wind and have a good look at the detail. the thai boys who have been trapped in a cave for two weeks have written letters to their parents, saying "don't worry... we are all strong". in another letter, their coach, who took them into the complex, has apologised to their parents. emergency workers have now set up an air supply line to the group. police investigating the latest nerve agent poisoning in wiltshire say they've begun examining more than 1,300 hours of cctv footage.
8:31 am
charlie rowley and dawn sturgess remain in a critical condition in hospital, after being taken ill a week ago. investigators believe the couple may have handled a contaminated object. members of a global team of researchers say they've reached an important milestone in the quest to design a vaccine that could protect people from hiv. the trial, which appears in the journal the lancet, involved 400 people. scientists acknowledge there are still huge challenges to overcome, but say they are cautiously hopeful. almost all wildflower meadows in the uk have been lost since the 19305, according to conservationists. they say that the survival of nearly 1,400 species of insects that rely on meadow plants is at risk because of the decline. the department for rural affairs says it's committed to protecting wildlife as part of a 25 year plan. and world cup rivalry between english and swedish football legends has gone up a few notches
8:32 am
on social media. sweden's record goalscorer zlatan ibrahimovic challenged david beckham with this message on instagram. "yo david beckham — if england wins, i buy you dinner wherever you want in the world, but if sweden wins you buy me whatever i want from ikea. 0k?" beckham responded: "if sweden win, i will personally take you to ikea and buy you whatever you need for the new mansion in la. but when england win, i want you to come to watch an england game at wembley, wearing an england shirt and enjoy fish and chips at half time." the gauntlet has been thrown. the idea of zlatan ibrahimovic wearing an england shirt is one for everyone to get behind, i'm sure. alan shearer is in moscow as part of
8:33 am
the bbc‘s coverage. and mike is channelling gareth southgate. hi, gareth, how are you doing? alan shearer was singing your praises earlier. i've been loving the coverage, thank you very much. you join us here in the england hotel on the lawn because it's very hot here in samara. i am just giving my team talk with the other brothers, also looking the same. it's quite spooky when you look around and there are all these harry kanes and gareth southgates with that blank expression, like something out of doctor who. the queue at wimbledon are obviously looking forward to the tennis, but they are also reflecting the mood of the nation and getting behind the england team and getting in the mood for football. that is one of the big dilemmas, harry, aka jane! you are here for the tennis and obviously for kyle edmund and rafa nadal, but how are you going to
8:34 am
watch the football, because you are a football fan? we plan to leave at 2.30 and find a pub. there might be a bit of an exodus around 2.30. like kyle edmund, you will be hoping there are two really long matches on centre court first so that the england versus sweden game is done and dusted first. people have been here all night, camping. beautiful weather for it. you here all night, camping. beautiful weatherfor it. you can here all night, camping. beautiful weather for it. you can see the scale of the part here, where everybody has been waiting for the tennis to start. and we must not forget the british grand prix formula 1 and the start of the tour de france. an unprecedented day of sport. and i have a world cup ball here as well. excuse me if i am covered in grass. not too early for p rosecco covered in grass. not too early for prosecco or champagne either. but at 3 o'clock, we of course turn
8:35 am
our attention to the world cup and samara. it's around 600 miles to the east of the russian capital moscow, where gareth southgate's england side take on sweden in the quarterfinals. let's go live to moscow and say good morning to dan walker. hi, dan. thank you for taking off the gareth southgate mask. that was deeply disconcerting for everybody watching bbc breakfast this morning. but welcomed to moscow. england take on sweden in the quarterfinal later. the hosts russia play today, taking on croatia in sochi. the winner of that game faces the winner of england and sweden's quarterfinal a bit later. we will show you the results of the other quarterfinals yesterday and some of the goals from those. but let's talk about the game today. alan shearer said he hardly slept last night. he is excited and there are many fans back at home
8:36 am
dreaming about the fact that it might be coming home. a week and one day from now is the world cup final in moscow at the luzhniki stadium. can england get there? can they reach a semifinalfor the can england get there? can they reach a semifinal for the first time since 1990? that reach a semifinal for the first time since 1990 ? that is reach a semifinal for the first time since 1990? that is what is at stake when they take on sweden. and this isa when they take on sweden. and this is a decent sweden side. three clean sheets in this world cup already. they came out of a qualifying group that was topped by france, the team they beat in qualifying. they finished ahead of the dutch and then they beat italy in a play—off to make it to russia. so while we are alldreaming as make it to russia. so while we are all dreaming as england fans of being in the semifinals, the swedish are looking at this game and thinking, look at england, getting carried away like they always do. let's hear from the real gareth southgate. we came into this tournament as the least experienced team. we are one of the youngest teams in it. but we said we are an improving side who wa nt said we are an improving side who want to make our own history. we
8:37 am
have had our first knockout win in ten years, first win in a penalty shoot out at the world cup for england, highest number of goals scored in any individual game. so we wa nt scored in any individual game. so we want to keep making that history. and he has been receiving a lot of praise for the way he has gone about his business. so often in a major tournament, it's easy to say the wrong thing in a press conference or upset players, but he has kept the camp happy. and as he said, they have broken records that this world cup. some of the displays have not been sparkling and apart from the panama game, they have not scored goal after goal. but they did win a penalty shoot out for the first time in england's world cup history and it could go to penalties again today against sweden. i am sure you have seen all the videos going around. we have been showing them on bbc brea kfast have been showing them on bbc breakfast and on social media of fan parks going wild. as part of the
8:38 am
bbc‘s coverage in the build—up to the game today, we stuck at two o'clock for england against sweden. you will see a few famous faces who, like everyone else, are getting a little carried away. i thought we we re little carried away. i thought we were going to show you michael mcintyre. we can't show you that. all right, let's show you the eastenders gang a bit later. something else to show you is the goals from yesterday's quarterfinal. france saw off uruguay. antoine griezmann scored the goal with a lovely shot which he probably thought wasn't going to cause much difficulty for the uruguayan goalkeeper, but it was one of those world cup howlers we often see in a world cup howlers we often see in a world cup howlers we often see in a world cup tournament. and france knocked out uruguay with their incredible backline and the likes of suarez. france go through to the semifinal. in the other game
8:39 am
yesterday, we said goodbye to the other south american side left in the competition, brazil, beaten by a magnificent belgian performance. this was the pick of the goals in that game, kevin de bruyne with one of those sweet strikes. they had already taken the lead. they blew the brazilians away in the first half. roberto cousteau got one back for brazil and it was a nervy last 15 or 20 minutes, but belgium are through and brazil are out. only european sides are now left in the world cup. and another european side will go into the quarterfinal today when england take on sweden. i promised you a bit of eastenders. we had alan shearer singing a few moments ago on bbc breakfast. in case you want to hear it again. stop here he is. #is here he is. # is coming home. come on, england! # is coming home. come on, england! # it's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming, football is
8:40 am
coming home. # it's coming home! far too many people are getting carried away. england take on sweden in the quarterfinal. you can watch the build—up from two o'clock on bbc one with gary lineker and the team in moscow. mike, i am sure you have seen all these omens going around. the last time england won the world cup was obviously 1966. if you multiply one by one and you multiply that by the square of nine and multiply that by the square of six and multiply that by the square of the other six and divide that by 52, which is the number of years since england last one the world cup, you come out with 2000 and 18.7, seven being the month ofjuly, so it had to happen! i didn't follow that quite closely, but i love that. also, man city won the league. burnley qualified for europe the
8:41 am
last time all that happened. there are some stats doing around on that as well. i am the most pessimistic football fan. i am going for 2—2, england through on penalties again. so, kyle edmund has a dilemma. will he be allowed to watch the game before he comes out on centre court because he has a swedish coach? or will it be a distraction if england go through on penalties? how will he prepare to face novak djokovic? it could be going on at the same time. the british number one's playing in his first ever third round match here, and he won't have it easy...he's playing the three—time champion novak djokovic on centre court. he may well be playing at the same time that england take on sweden in russia, causing a friendly rivalry between edmund and his swedish coach fredrik rosengren. but it will get serious when it
8:42 am
comes to taking on novak djokovic, third up at angelique kerber and before that, nadal. whilst lots of the game's big stars have found the first week something of a struggle here at wimbledon, roger federer‘s still on for a record—equaliing ninth title. he swept aside germany's jan—lennard struff in straight sets to cruise into round 4... ...as does the seven—time champion serena williams. she passed herfirst proper test at this years tournament by beating france's kristina mladenovic. not such good news for sister venus, though, who was beaten in her third round match. england's cricketers have levelled their t20 series with india to set up a decider in bristol on sunday. eoin morgan's side won by five wickets in cardiff. chasing down 149 to win, david willey hit the winning runs. such a busy sporting weekend. amongst all the tennis
8:43 am
and the football, there's also the small matter of the british grand prix. lewis hamilton is going for a fifth win in a row at silverstone, but his championship rival sebastian vettel set the pace in yesterday's second practice session. qualifying starts this afternoon. the tour de france also starts later today and as britain's chris froome goes for a record—equalling fifth tour title, he's received a mixed reception from the home supporters. froome's anti—doping case was dropped by cycling's governing body last week. there is a bit of football going on in the queue here. it is getting really hot. it is actually far too hot for a gareth southgate waistcoat. because there is so much going on this afternoon, i feel like joining my friends down here. this is the perfect way to prepare for all the drama that is going to u nfold all the drama that is going to unfold later on at wimbledon, at
8:44 am
silverstone and in samara. good night! nice to know your sleeping on thejob, mike. lots of people are busy with life today when the football is on. mark and his soon—to—be wife are getting married today at midday. they are not going today at midday. they are not going to miss the match, but he is e—mailing us because when his fiancee's sister got married, england were playing sweden in the euro cup, england won — was 3—2. he believes football is coming home. marilyn says, our daughter is getting married on the day of the world cup final next sunday. half the wedding party including the groom our footballers. the wedding party including the groom ourfootballers. what a dilemma they may have. whatever you're doing, i imagine it will be happening in the sunshine, and ben can tell us about that. glorious blue skies behind you. we
8:45 am
are ina glorious blue skies behind you. we are in a good mood whenever we talk to you. it does make a change. we can't upset anyone at the moment, because this blue sky weather is here to stay. we are stuck with it, with plenty more sunshine to come this weekend. that picture came from a weather watch on the south coast of england and we some weak end up like this. mostly dry, hot sunshine. no surprises there. there was a bit of cloud in the satellite picture, some lapping at the irish sea coast and a bit more cloud in northern ireland. through the day, we will see more cloud in the north—west of the country. some of the coastal cloud will tend to linger. but for most places, it is a sunny day. this is the forecast for three o'clock, the kick—off for a certain football match. across scotland and northern ireland, a bit more cloud in the west. the further east you are, more
8:46 am
sunshine. just a small chance of a heavy shower across the far south—east of england. let me take you to russia. we dive underneath the clouds towards the samara arena. there are patches of blue sky and a bit of cloud. perhaps a bit warm for some of the players. and talking of warm, wimbledon. sunshine again. i did mention a small chance of a shower across the south—east of england through the late afternoon. but essentially, it is fine and dry. and clear skies overnight. bit more cloud fringing into north—west scotla nd cloud fringing into north—west scotland and northern ireland. ahead of that band of cloud, a very warm and muggy night. but that band of
8:47 am
clouds is associated with a weather front. not much rain on it, but behind the weather front, we start to bringing cooler and fresher air. you can see the lighter colours in the north—west for something cooler. but towards the south—east, plenty of sunshine and plenty of heat again. when will this spell of dry weather"s through next week, it looked like there will be plenty more dry weather and plenty more sunshine. temperatures dip away for a time, although they recover again by the end of the week. so if you like the dry weather and sunshine, there is plenty more good news to come. normally, you would look at that beach behind you think it was somewhere in spain, but i bet it is
8:48 am
on our coast, isn't it? take your pick, there will be loads of scenes like that. a couple from manchester have been awarded more than £17,000 after challenging their payment protection insurance compensation. under normal rules set by the financial regulator, they would have got less than 4,000. lawyers say they're preparing hundreds more cases. let's get more from paul lewis, presenter of radio 4's money box programme. ppi is something that has gone on and on and we thought it was coming to an end, but now a load of new cases might come forward? that is true. this is an important case. it is only the county court and does not set a precedent, but it was published whereas most of them aren't. we have gone through it and thejudge's arguments aren't. we have gone through it and the judge's arguments make aren't. we have gone through it and thejudge's arguments make it aren't. we have gone through it and the judge's arguments make it clear that what went wrong in this case was firstly that the charge from the
8:49 am
insurers was very high at over £10,000. but the real thing was that the commission earned by the lender and intermediaries was about £8,000. so well over three quarters of the premium wasn't going to pay for the insurance, it was going in commission payments to other people. he said that was very high and he said it was also secret because the couple didn't know about it. in his words, it would cause a reasonable person to doubt the wisdom of the deal. so he threw the deal out and gave them back all the money they had paid plus interest, which as you said was more than £17,000.“ had paid plus interest, which as you said was more than £17,000. if ever there was an incentive for mis—selling, and 80% commission is pretty good. yes. that is one of the problems. in this case, it was found earlier that they hadn't been mis—sold, but it was the commission and the secrecy of it. this was
8:50 am
under a different law, consumer credit laws, and it created what is called an unfair relationship between the lender and the borrower because of the secrecy. it is not the first case that has been decided like this. there have been others, though many others have not been published like this one. lawyers are now preparing hundreds of similar cases to go forward. although the award was for over £17,000, the couple will get rather less because they will have to pay typically 30 to 40% of the lawyers on a no—win, no fee basis. that is important to clarify, that it was not a case of mis—selling here. if people have already had a ppi insurance claim pay—out, can they now go back and revisit it on the basis of this, or is it only applicable to new claims? normally, if you get a proper ppi
8:51 am
mis—selling claim, that will be as much as this was anyway. it is people who have been rejected who can now consider going through the court process. there is deadline on these cases now of next august, august 20 19. but we have established from the financial conduct authority that that deadline does not apply to court cases. so people who have been rejected me now wa nt to people who have been rejected me now want to go back and see if they can get it through this route. but anyone who possibly has had ppi paid in the past who has not put in a claim should do that. you can do it free to a firm like resolver or money saving expert. you don't need to go to court, but you will need help to do that. it would be almost impossible to do it by yourself. more on this on money box. yes, on midday on radio 4, as ever. talking
8:52 am
of big numbers, dan was talking about 1966 and how if you multiply all those numbers together and divide them by 52, it is true, you come out with 2018.7. the signs are there! england's quarterfinal against sweden this afternoon has got the nation dreaming of world cup glory — all week long fans have been singing, chanting, or humming the tune of "football's coming home". the 1996 anthem by skinner and baddiel has been reinvented by many supporters for the social media age, let's take a look. phone rings. gary? # it's coming home, it's coming, football's coming home # it's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming # football's coming home. # it's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming.

a phenomenal talent. he stood out above the other kids and the other managers were in awe of this lad that i have coached. you have got the world cup in your hands. not the actual one, but it looks realistic. we'll marcus rashford and his team—mates be lifting that in a couple of weeks? in our first tournament, we played with marcus. he and a few of the other lads won us that tournament and i am hoping he can bring the real one home for us. lift it proud for the nation. marcus, do your best and good luck! now, ronnie is the secretary of the club. this club has been here for over 30 years. tell us about your pride about the three players representing england from this club. lam representing england from this club. i am really proud of the guys, not
