# always # until we dream of life and life becomes a dream stevie wonder, drawing to a close this epic funeral for a wreath of franklin. singing i'll be loving you always. at the moment, we will be taking a look at the front pages of the newspapers. it's fairly quiet on the weather front to most of us. the first of september, the first day of meteorological autumn. temperatures around the single figures. a little bit milder at west for a change,"

scum of 11! degrees. some spots of rain around western scotland, maybe merseyside, the lake district. basically the further east and south you are, the brighter the weather will be on saturday and temperatures widely into the low 20s, possibly getting around 25 degrees in the south—east. he was sunday's weather forecast. the east of the country and central areas will have the best of the weather. the sun will be shining but later on in the day, we will be expecting the weather front to move across the atlantic. that is not until late in the day. elsewhere, a bright day and very warm indeed. goodbye. hello. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow.

with me are jason beattie, who is head of politics at the daily mirror, and sebastian payne, the political leader writer for the financial times. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. if they are not in by now, we will really struggle. sorry, just a few filler words i need to put into get us across filler words i need to put into get us across the line. the daily telegraph leads with a warning from lord blunkett that labour risks falling into "decline and irrelevance" unless the party makes a "seismic shift" in response to the anti—semitism scandal. the times claims tax avoiders are being blacklisted by the authorities to prevent them from getting knighthoods and pictures ariana grande performing at aretha franklin's funeral at the greater grace temple in detroit. the ft says coca—cola is setting itself up to take on starbucks, nestle and jab holdings in the global battle for coffee sales after buying costa coffee in a £3.9bn deal. the daily mail reports on new research that suggests up to 11! children are fighting for each place at top primary schools. the i says doctors will be able to stay one step ahead of cancer tumours thanks

to a new technique pioneered by scientists. and the daily express leads with the same story claiming patients will be treated earlier because artificial intelligence will be able to predict how the disease can evolve in individual patients. that is where we will begin as its toll on the front page of the i. cancer treatment revolution. is it i? we don't know the exact details but this does seem to be the way medicine is going and the big question about artificial intelligence is, can eat model how a human brain operates? that's is what eve ryo ne human brain operates? that's is what everyone is talking about. chess for example, it's been modelled effectively and why computers keep beating humans. what we are doing with cancer treatment is modelling how these cells grow to try it out with them and as we have on the front page of the i, you can see how we create these advanced algorithms

on how the cells grow and try to be one step ahead of them. the whole thing about al is to try to predict behaviour. if we can model how cancer cells grow, that's when you get to a point where you have real thinking human beings because of loss of what we have at the moment is in fact very complicated algorithms. our humans think certainly isn't logical and nobody knows how cancer cells thinks. if this stands up and does what it says, it's a huge medical breakthrough and means that in the future, cancer will be something that people live with like hiv and diabetes, it is treatable and not a terminal light sentence. we talk about cancer is if it is one thing but there are so many different types of cancer. it will be a case of trying to map and predict what

each one will do. the thing about this is, you have scientists all over the world all trying to work to beat cancer in its various forms and this is an example of collaboration between various scientists. we call them boffins. that is what front pages usually call them. and working effectively. i have friends who are cancer research scientists who are trying to re— grow cells which again could transform it. this is long—term work. some of the stuff they start, it has to be taken on by other scientists further down the line and that is one of the things we should remember. it's really kind of dedication. its selfless. let's look at the daily telegraph. scallop skirmish shows the uk can't protect

its own waters. it is a warning from the former head of the navy. he ca res the former head of the navy. he cares deeply and quite rightly about the size of the navy. he was one of the size of the navy. he was one of the more successful goats. he is worried that we only have three fishery patrol vessels. especially after brexit. when these waters become even more contested than they are now. this is happening while we are now. this is happening while we are still inside the eu. this is the footage of french and british chemin assuming abuse at each other. the a nswer to assuming abuse at each other. the answer to these scallops are very precious and their self a huge sums of money. they are protected under french law. there seems to be a lot

of dispute about where the boundaries are and i hate to mention brexit but this does all play. where we can fish, how much water is given away. if you are to look on a purely economic basis, in return for financial services. one part of the english channel. it's going to christen some very hard feelings. having more boats, arguing with french boats. its nostalgic and its 18th century more than anything else. let's look at the business pages of the times. homebase rescued from collapse as stores shut. this was the lesser of two evils with this agreement. 42 of their shops

are going to go. what is curious is, there is good and bad news. we have coca—cola buying costa coffee so there will be more copy but lots of high street stores are struggling, whether it is house of fraser or whatever. what is curious about this one is that most of them are struggling because of the competition from on line. if you can buy something more cheaply and get it delivered to your home, you can see why that is very difficult for small shops to compete with. but homebase is not that market. you need to go there, get your rickety trolley, load up your page. it's not something you get delivered to your door or by these big bits of furniture to do home improvement. i'm slightly surprised it's in so

much trouble. it means management problems. there is a suggestion that a lot of the management team might come back. bunnings, the australian company took them over and they got it wrong by their own admission. who knew that diy australian style is so different from here. this is the crucial thing, different from here. this is the crucialthing, homebase, it's not the most appetising stores, trundling around for paint. is it because we are not that good at diy? it could be that but they are not particularly appetising stores, and they were bought by bunnings but australia has a different diy culture, it's a car driven society and diy, bigger gardens and bigger land and trying to put that model here didn't work but what is interesting again is they have used this cva process which is becoming increasingly controversial, house of fraser tried to use this were

essentially, they are default on some of their rates because they are saying it is too expensive and they can't afford it. please give us a lifeline. homebase has done this and begin ofa lifeline. homebase has done this and begin of a lifeline but it will be 1500 jobs lost, 42 stores closing so it's not a pill from here and if they don't rescue homebase, and it will go bankrupt. let's look abeie ft. this one turns up regularly, doesn't it? —— let's look abeie ft. europe calls time on daylight savings —— let's look at the ft. europe calls time on daylight savings -- let's look at the ft. in march and october the clocks go forward and back and it's about making the evenings longer in the summer making the evenings longer in the summerand making sure making the evenings longer in the summer and making sure you don't have those dangerous times when it's darkin have those dangerous times when it's dark in the morning. the european commission put out an annual survey and it had 4.6 million responses, the biggest ever response to an eu

wide survey, and 84% of eu citizens said we want to get rid of the change in the clocks and jean—claude juncker, the president of the commission, said they will do it but probably not until 2021 and after we've left. a couple of fascinating issues here. one is portugal... they have the same time as us. i've falle n have the same time as us. i've fallen foul of this, i've gone from spain to portugal and i've not realised. portugal is our oldest ally. what i want to know is what happens after brexit if ireland goes to eu time, the republic of ireland, and northern ireland stays on normal time? we will have a wonky line of latitude. i can see chaos! the only reason we have this is scotland. latitude. i can see chaos! the only reason we have this is scotlandm is farmers, let's not forget farmers. i can tell you the reason it happened was during the first world war when they needed to save energy so world war when they needed to save energy so they brought this in

because back then when it was oil and coal powered stations there was and coal powered stations there was a significant difference by having the hour. then it was followed by the hour. then it was followed by the rest of the european countries in the 1970s after the oil crisis. the european commission said it saves no .2% of energy, so there's no energy argument any more, it is just historical reasons —— 0.2%. let's look at the sport page of the mirror. jose, i'm still the greatest, channelling mohammad ali it seems to be. he's got problems at old trafford but he's still talking themselves up. the only thing he is themselves up. the only thing he is the greatest that is attracting newspaper headlines. it's been a pretty bad start up their. the question is, has he lost his touch? he was a very successful manager. —— up he was a very successful manager. —— up there. he was never quite the greatest, he has won 25 or so trophies, alex ferguson won 48, he

has won two champions leagues but zidane won three on the trot. a dubious claim. he is accessible. this needy attention seeking is becoming quite tiresome. he's quite grumpy... becoming quite tiresome. he's quite grumpy--- -- becoming quite tiresome. he's quite grumpy... —— is quite successful. of late very monosyllabic. some of the press co nfe re nces late very monosyllabic. some of the press conferences have been quite bizarre. you get to the point with football managers in their career they need to constantlyjustify how fantastic they are. often i don't think it's really the case. was he... was his style of management... which feels now quite dated, it has been... people like pep guardiola have come along and they're much more touchy—feely and getting the team to work together. gareth southgate with the england side. yes, he's another example. you think jose has had his time. if he is the

greatest, he will be able to manchester united around and he hasn't. history will decide and the trophy cabinet. looking at the guardian and the front—page picture here, ariana grande singing at aretha franklin's funeral. carolyn, who is editing the programmes tonight, she said i didn't want it tonight, she said i didn't want it to end. it almost won't. it's been going on for about six hours, if not longer. still going. extraordinary scenes. one of those things where everybody was their. from ariana grande to bill clinton, paying tribute to the queen of soul, and we just heard stevie wonder giving an impassioned performance of one of his songs. —— there. what a sendoff and tribute to someone who connected different generations and sections of society and countries across the world. looking at america these days, it seems so divided, something

like this really brings people together. aretha franklin really managed to do that. quick comment, jason? i was intrigued they had john mccain's funeral today and then you had this establishment in dc, very white, compared with this much more mixed and alternative america. you just thought, almost it seems like a divided country in places and i thought that was interesting. that's it for tonight. don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online at the bbc news website. it's all there for you seven days a week at bbc.co.uk/papers and if you miss the programme any evening, you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. steph is in charge of cameras tonight. it is her birthday. a big thank you to my guests this evening, jason beattie from the daily mirror, and sebastian payne from the ft. coming up next it is time for the sport. good evening.

we're starting with cricket, and the 4th test between england and india is turning into a fascinating game in southampton. after the disappointment for england's batsmen on day one, the game is now very tight with india holding a narrow first innings lead. they were bowled out for 273, wickets falling throughout the day. captain virat kholi outjust short of a half century. sam curran with that one, but the pick of the england bowlers was the re—called moeen ali. five wickets for him as the hosts looked to take an unexpected lead. india though and cheteshwar pujara had other ideas. he hit his first century in england to help the tourists towards a 27—run lead. england will re—start tomorrow 6—0 as they lead the best—of—5 series 2—1. england's women have qualified for next year's world cup finals. they beat wales in their winner takes all qualifiying match in newport tonight. after a goalless first half, england's strikers came alive in the second. toni duggan with the first goal, then afterjill scott had made it 2—0,

nikita parris scored their third. wales now need to hope they can finish qualifying as one of the four best second—placed teams to make it to the finals in france injune. leeds united are still top of the championship after a goalless draw against second placed middlesbrough. it was a game of few chances, boro'sjonny howson did manage to work leeds keeper bailey peacock—farrell in the first half, but neither side found much rhythm in the first meeting between managers tony pulis and marcelo bielsa. jose mourinho is making headlines again, this time telling reporters that he'll still be one of the greatest managers in the world even if he doesn't win the premier league with manchester united. mourinho was being questioned about his side's poor start to the season. united play burnley on sunday. iam the i am the only manager in the world that won italy, spain and england.

and by winning edge titles, not small titles, not small countries, eight proper titles, my second position last season is one of my greatest achievements in football. it's the return of the domestic rugby union season this weekend. promoted side bristol have returned to the premiership with a bang by beating west country rivals bath at ashton gate. bristol, who were promoted from the championship, had led for much of the match but only made sure of victory when alapati leiua went over to the joy of the home fans. in the pro 14, champions leinster beat cardiff blues and ospreys won against edinburgh. the us open tennis is well into its third round and the women's defending champion sloane stephens has made it through to the last 16. the american, who's the third seed, beat belarus' victoria azarenka in straight sets 6—3, 6—4. stephens will face elise mertens on sunday. the world's fastest man, usain bolt, has ta ken another step towards playing professional football.

the retired athlete, who holds the record for the 100m and 200m, came on as a sub for the australian a—league side central coast mariners in a pre—season friendly. he's hoping to impress enough to get a deal ahead of the new season. however, he was unable to take this chance. ironically hejust wasnt quick enough. that's all the sport for now. the weather's looking pretty good over the next couple of days, most of us this weekend will get at least a little dose of sun but the temperatures are expected to climb and there's some sunshine on the way. but the nights are starting to draw in now. the nights are getting longer. not the nights, the days are drawing in, the nights are getting longer, that's what i meant but we have to make the most of any warmth thatis have to make the most of any warmth that is heading our way because before you know if there will be

windswept gale force winds, the whole lot but for now, warmth out of the south, enjoy that. the night is still pretty chilly, especially in central and eastern areas, last night we had a touch of frost in scotla nd night we had a touch of frost in scotland but the nice in eastern areas down to single figures but in the west we have some slightly warmerair the west we have some slightly warmer air with cloud and bits and pieces of rain, 13 or 14 degrees. this is what it looks like first thing on saturday. western areas waking up to a fair bit of cloud and even spots of rain here and there, eastern areas waking up to glorious sunshine. spots of rain around the irish sea, south—western and western scotland. not cold at all, temperatures around 14 degrees. through the course of the morning, looks like some of that cloud... morning into the afternoon, some of the cloud in western areas will break up, not one layer of grey, sunshine for sure, just some spits and spots of rain but the best of the weather will be the further east

and south. temperatures could reach the mid—20s in the south—east, but evenin the mid—20s in the south—east, but even in yorkshire, 22 or 23 and in belfast, around 20 as well. looking at sunday, the winds will freshen in the north—west here, really quite gusty around some of these western isles. rain pushing into two and we're thinking later in the day on sunday we are going to see fresh air and rain into glasgow and belfast. look at the heat building, temperatures reaching around 25 in the south—east, maybe a conservative figure of 23 in london. here's the outlook for the next few days, temperatures dipping away next week but generally speaking it's actually not looking too bad at all and in the north, in the high teens. in the south, probably in the low twenties. whatever weather, have a great weekend. hello. this is bbc news. i'm ben
