news. the former labour prime minister gordon brown has weighed into his party's anti—semitism row, saying it should adopt an internationally agreed definition of anti—semitism. tensions within labour over the issue have intensified following the decision by the long—serving mp frank field to resign the party whip in parliament. mr brown has been addressing a meeting of the labourjewish movement in north london. i want to say to you very clearly today that the international holocaust remembrance alliance definition of semitism is something that we should support unanimously, unequivocally, and immediately. applause. not only must we unanimously agree the best definition

of anti—semitism, we must take the proper procedures to discipline those who undermine them. equally at the same time we must be honest with ourselves and recognise that racism and anti—semitism is not only a problem of the jackbooted right in our country, but it is also a problem of the conspiracy theory left and that is why we need proper education so that our movement is cleansed of anti—semitism and racism in the future. speaking to the bbc‘s andrew marr earlier, the shadow chancellorjohn mcdonnell said he was confident that the row over the recognised definition of anti—semitism would be resolvd by labour when the national executive committee meets this week. i don't want to pre—empt the nec, but from what i have heard it will be resolved and there will be a balance of that acceptance as people want, but also exactly what others have said as well,

and lord sacks himself, that freedom of speech is important as well. the ability to criticise policies that you disagree with. sorry to jump in. you are a big voice in the labour movement and people will be watching you and listening to you. if you yourself say that you think that definition should be accepted, that will have an effect. do you think it should be accepted? i do not want to interfere in the nec because anything i say could jeopardise what i think will be an historic agreement. let me put it as straightforward as i can. i think all sides will be satisfied with the proposal that will be discussed. that means acceptance on the one hand and acceptance overall and i think also the commitment to freedom of speech and a recognition of the rights of palestinians. i think the nec are wise enough to come to that understanding. and then we can get on with the serious business

of engagement with the jewish community, tackling anti—semitism in our society and as best we can bringing people together. we will resolve this matter and i hope we do it quickly and move on. our correspondent simon jones has spent the day at the jewish labour meeting and sent this report. last year this conference was a pretty low— key affair, last year this conference was a pretty low—key affair, fast forward 12 months and things couldn't have been more different. when gordon brown the former prime minister took to the stage it was an unusual intervention from him. since he has retired as an mp he hasn't wanted to get involved generally in a domestic issues. even less so in internal labour policy issues but he said today they couldn't stand on the side. he felt he needed to speak out and they spoke about the anti—semitism issue, a battle for

the very soul of the liver party. also on stage the veteran labour mp dame margaret hodge. she recalled the time back injuly when she accused jeremy corbyn to his face of being anti—semitic. she said what has happened since then in the following weeks has done nothing to change her opinion about this. she also spoke of the need she feels for things to change and she says the labour party has a problem, jeremy corbyn has a problem and the problem isjeremy corbyn has a problem and the problem is jeremy corbyn corbyn has a problem and the problem isjeremy corbyn himself. speaking to delegates here today you do get a sense of frustration among some that they have been spent so much time of energy talking about the very issue of anti—semitism because there have been sessions here today on things like brexit, representation, diversity, but really that one issue has overshadowed it all. as for the labour leadership they have always insisted they are determined to tackle anti—semitism where they find

it, whether that be in the labour party itself or in the wider community. the prime minister has re—stated her opposition to a second eu referendum and says she won't accept anything in a deal with brussels that's against the national interest. writing in a sunday newspaper, before mps return to parliament this week, mrs may said she would not betray those who voted to leave in the referendum two years ago. here's our political correspondent susana mendonsa. she's shown us her moves can be unpredictable, but when it comes to the prospect of a second referendum, theresa may is standing firm and sticking to her tune. the prime minister told the sunday telegraph that two years ago, millions came out to have their say and to ask the question all over again would be a gross betrayal of our democracy. when it comes to her brexit blueprint forged at chequers, mrs may insisted she wouldn't be pushed into accepting compromises that were not in the national interest. but her former brexit secretary,

who resigned over chequers, said he will vote against it and that her words leave the way open for compromise. except in the national interest. i mean, your commentators earlier were exactly right. that is an incredible sort of open sesame. you're not going to turn around in the house of commons and say "i agreed this, but it wasn't in the "national interest." as parliament prepares to gear up for a new term, rumours of impending leadership challenges continue. as do the divisions among those who stayed inside the government tent, with the international trade secretary slapping down the chancellor's gloomy predictions about economic growth in the event of a no—deal brexit. to say what a gdp figure would be 15 years ahead is not a predictive power that i've known the treasury to have in my time in politics. pressure has been mounting throughout the summer from those who want the public to have a vote on the final brexit deal. and labour's opposition to a second

referendum might be softening. my preference is a general election because then you vote on the issues and you vote on the team that will then do the negotiations. if she won't go for a general election we'll keep all options on the table and we'll see what happens in october, november. this week, the cabinet will get back around the table and mrs may will embark on the final stretch before a deal with the eu does or doesn't get done. it's bound to be a long, tough road ahead. susanna mendonca, bbc news. well, i spoke to susanna earlier, who explained that theresa may is facing opposition from both sides of her party. there has been a lot said about the brexiteers not being happy with the chequers deal and what we understand is they might be putting forward their own suggestions, their own plans and alternatives to the chequers deal in the coming weeks and months. but on the other side she has got

the remainers who are very unhappy with the chequers plan as well. nick boles was quoted today in a newspaper saying it was a humiliation. he says the whole idea would basically be one where we are being dictated to by brussels. we have also got a tory donor, simon robertson, talking about the idea that we cannot return to a second referendum being balderdash. she is getting opposition on both sides of the debate. there has been a lot of talk about plots and the possibility of borisjohnson replacing theresa may. what is going on inside the conservative party? we constantly hear about plots and people taking theresa may's place and borisjohnson‘s name is constantly linked to that. but this has come from the fact that lynton crosby, who was very much involved in borisjohnson‘s successful mayoral campaigns, involved in conservative party election campaigns, that he has been drafted in to basically work

on a campaign that would be put forward as an alternative to the chequers plan, to show the chequers plan not to be the best idea, and that he will work on that. his involvement has raised questions about is this the beginning of a plot to replace theresa may with boris johnson? an important thing to note is what we heard from liam fox earlier on today on the andrew marr show. he said the thing about changing the leader is the arithmetic does not change. he means the conservative party does not have the numbers in parliament to be able to push through whatever it wants to push through on brexit. it needs consensus from within parliament from across different parties. whoever the leader is, they would have to do that. although theresa may is constantly under pressure and talk of plots, at this stage it does not look as though this would happen,

certainly before we get to the point where there is or is not a deal. new figures show that hundreds of prison staff have been caught smuggling drugs, weapons and other banned items into jails in england and wales. the figures — obtained through a freedom of information request by the observer newspaper — show a 50% rise over the last six years. the prison service says it represents less than one per cent of all staff. ben ando reports. in july, inspectors found that wandsworth prison in london, the most overcrowded in britain, had stopped scanning visitors for drugs and other banned items due to a lack of staff. the same month a 25—year—old prison officer was jailed for smuggling contraband into forest bank prison in salford, greater manchester. now the minister ofjustice has admitted in figures released to the observer newspaper, that in the last 16 years the number

of prison employees, notjust officers but health workers, trainers or other support staff, found smuggling illegal items like drugs, mobile phones, weapons or tobacco into prisons in england and wales, has gone up by more than a half. —— in the last six years. the figures show that in 2012, 45 prison staff were caught smuggling. but five years later, in 2017, that figure had gone up to 71. and the number of drug finds has trebled, now running at an average of 35 every day. what these numbers suggest is that the problem may be on the increase, but that is not a surprise because the actions of successive governments have created a perfect market for drugs in prison. campaigners say one problem is people. despite a recruitment drive to bring in 2500 new prison officers, the workforce has shrunk by nearly a fifth since 2010, when there were nearly 7000 more than now. prison bosses say these figures represent the actions of a tiny minority, and that most

of their staff are ha rd—working and honest. but the government knows that with record levels of violence and drug seizures and suicides, increasingly the impression is of a prison service in crisis. ben ando, bbc news, at the ministry ofjustice. well, i spoke to eric allison who is the prisons correspondent for the guardian and a former inmate himself — having spent a total of sixteen years in prison. i started by asking him if he was surprised by the smuggling of prohibited items by prison staff. it does not surprise me at all. i have known there has been a massive increase for the last four, five, six years. i believe those figures and the figures quoted about the increase in the number of staff caught smuggling does not present the true picture because for every parcel of drugs that gets intercepted, you can guarantee that at least another ten get through because the drug

dealers inside and outside factor in these losses. this is a multi—million pound industry. the price of drugs in prison is many more times the price of drugs on the street, so there is a huge profit, and it is very difficult to see how they will get to grips with it. is that why staff do it? because there is money to be made? of course, it is a huge temptation. you are talking about a small parcel of heroin fetching thousands and thousands of pounds. someone could offer a prison officer £1000, £500. the chance of detection is slight because they cannot search prison officers coming in, well, they cannot search them coming in en masse because it would disrupt the whole day. the temptation is huge and you have got a lot of young, inexperienced prison staff and the temptations are huge. the prison service said the figures reflect the actions

of a tiny minority. would you agree with that? yes, without a doubt. most prisoners are customers if you like. it is a small minority of people who are professional criminals and professional drug dealers outside and they carry on when they get inside. it is a multi—million pound industry. just to clarify, i was saying the prison service reflect a tiny minority being the prison officers? without a doubt. the vast majority of prison officers are straight, but it does not take many. how do the authorities try to stem this tide of contraband that is going into prisons? should prison governors be doing more? i don't see what they can do without the staff. if you had huge dedicated drug search teams in every prison, including dogs and devices, then that would make

a difference and inroads, but they are not doing that. they are not replacing the staff that are leaving and the staff they are replacing them with are new and they don't have the experience or the confidence sometimes to challenge prisoners. it is a real mess. the prison system is in a huge mess. what's his name, chris grayling had the great idea to stop smoking in prison. a packet of tobacco in prison is £150 and they are getting £150. wherever you have the deprivation of something that people want, you will get smuggling and it will take a massive effort to combat it. from what you are saying the main problem appears to be drugs. why is there such a huge demand for them in prison? well, above all else prisons are places of acute boredom, they really are. unemployment is rife in prison,

education gets stopped, there is nothing for prisoners to do. if there is nothing for them to do and they have got the opportunity to get out of it in their heads by taking drugs, they will take them. the headlines on bbc news... the former prime minister, gordon brown, says the "soul" of the labour party is at stake in the dispute over anti—semitism. more on that in a moment. theresa may dismisses calls for a second eu referendum, and insists she won't make compromises on her brexit chequers plan that aren't in the national interest. hundreds of prison staff are caught smuggling drugs, weapons and other banned items into jails in england and wales. let's get more now on our top story. and as we've been hearing, the former labour prime minister

gordon brown has weighed into his party's anti—semitism row, saying it should adopt an internationally agreed definition of anti—semitism. well, the labour mp dame margaret hodge had a confrontation withjeremy corbyn over the issue and continues to criticise the party's failure to adopt the internationally recognised definition of anti—semitism. i think trust has broken down to such an extent between thejewish community and the labour party that if the labour party tries to this point i meant or add on some clauses, it will simply feel in its attem pts clauses, it will simply feel in its atte m pts to clauses, it will simply feel in its attempts to start to rebuild trust, it isa attempts to start to rebuild trust, it is a terrible arrogance that here isa it is a terrible arrogance that here is a code that has been accepted by campus countries, that has been accepted campus countries, that has been a cce pted by campus countries, that has been accepted by most of the situation is here in the uk, and jeff the labour

party knows better and it knows better at a time when confidence between the jewish better at a time when confidence between thejewish community better at a time when confidence between the jewish community and better at a time when confidence between thejewish community and the labour party is at the lowest it has ever been. i have never, ever dreamt that in my lifetime i would be facing this sort of anti—semitism that i have experienced over the last summer in the last year, and i know that my colleagues, like luciano burge and roots made . i don't thinkjeremy corbyn can solve the problem because he is the problem. you think he should go? i think he should reflect on that but i have sincerely come to the view that he cannot solve the problem because he is the problem. some people would say you wanted rid of him in 2016, you wrote that letter, you are up to the same strategy

again. that makes me really angry because that belittles my commitment to antiracism and my commitment to getting rid of anti—semitism in the party. this isn't aboutjeremy corbyn as an individual, this is about my party that i have been a member of forfar too about my party that i have been a member of for far too long, over five decades, it is a party that has beenin five decades, it is a party that has been in existence for over 100 yea rs, been in existence for over 100 years, a been in existence for over 100 yea rs, a party been in existence for over 100 years, a party that is the natural home for antiracism and was the natural home forjews and it is a party as gordon brown said this morning, it is about the soul of our party. jewish voice for labour is a pro—corbyn group, set up to tackle claims of anti—semitism in the labour party. i've been getting the thoughts of its chair, jenny manson.

i have heard people say they have had enough, i have had enough, many are not represented by this community and would like some facts about how much anti—semitism is on the party, what mr corbyn has done, there have been plenty of action, instead of these allegations hyped up instead of these allegations hyped up today by gordon brown. you saying there isn't a problem? there has been a problem in the labour party always, there is apparently some suggestion that it is less now than in the past, i hadn't met at myself, i live in north london, a sophisticated constituent when it comes to understanding jews, i have been challenged many times and i have been in the labour party for many years, all the evidence is it is at least as prevalent in other parties, they have the same problem, it is mostly on the far right and

a lwa ys it is mostly on the far right and always has been but most of the very disgusting things had been on social media and knocked on the labour party members but the allegations continued and i am very concerned that the media including yourselves and commentators are not questioning the so—called smear of anti—semitism. the so—called smear of anti-semitism. i think they are. i wonder why a veteran mp like frank field who i'm sure you would agree has done a lot for the labour party and has been very loyal and dedicated, why would he resign the web after accusing the leadership of the residing over a party that is becoming a force for anti—semitism? are you saying that he is lying? he was not very convincing. he moved on to being bullied in birkenhead. i know members in birkenhead who said has been bullying on all sides, there is a lot of bullying at the moment between very strong views, i have a lot of emotional connection with frank field because of his wonderful work on child poverty

action group although he has rebelled on things i should not have rebelled on things i should not have rebelled on, including brexit and welfare, he has been very tough on people receiving overcoming evil did very well welfare cup, my kind of labour, the old left wing in my view which protects the most vulnerable people in the country, frank field has led people like them down. a 17—year old boy suffered a cardiac arrest when he was tasered by police officers. the incident took place in coventry yesterday evening. west midlands police say the boy is in a serious but stable condition in hospital. four other teenagers were arrested in the incident, which has been referred to the independent office for police conduct. the united states says it is cancelling 300 million dollars of military aid to pakistan. the pentagon has criticised pakistan for failing to deal with militant groups operating in the country. the decision has been takenjust

days before the us secretary of state is due to meet the newly elected prime minister, imran khan. i spoke to our correspondent in washington chris buckler, who told us more about the us military‘s announcement. essentially america has been concerned for a long time that pakistan is not tackling what the department of defence calls terrorist groups, as in all terrorist groups. they are concerned in some ways pakistan is giving support or safe haven to some groups aligned with the afghan taliban. these groups operate near afghanistan and they have a network and they are particularly concerned about it. they feel strongly that pakistan should be stronger in taking action, particularly since us forces have been killed as a result of the activities of these groups. as a result, there has been this question of pressure going on. money was withdrawn this year of $500 million that would have potentially gone to pakistan in this csf funding.

now another $300 million will be withdrawn, although that has to get the approval of congress. but it is clear the defence secretary james mattis had a chance to put this money forward and approve it during the summer if he saw evidence that pakistan was tackling these militant groups. he clearly has not seen it and the decision has been taken to withdraw it providing congress give approval. what are the consequences of the withdrawal of this aid? there are two things. first, doing it at this time gives you an indication that they are trying to put pressure on pakistan because ultimately we have the us secretary of state, mike pompeo, going to meet the new pakistan prime minister, imran khan. potentially they could have conversations and try to push through their agenda. but there is a question for pakistan and what it does next. there is anti—american sentiment, but they have a struggling economy and potentially they will have

to see if they can try and form different allies with other countries. for america, pakistan is ultimately very important because of its close links to afghanistan, because of the geography and the airspace. therefore, there are risks for america in some of this as well. but there has been growing frustration. donald trump has been very clear. he was talking about in return for billions of dollars pakistan give america nothing but lies and deceit. it is those words that sometimes anger pakistan and that is also a potential danger for the us. the islamist militant group al shabab says it carried out a car bomb attack in somalia that killed at least three people. the attack happened in the capital mogadishu when a car containing explosives was driven towards a local government building. three soldiers who stopped the vehicle from entering the compound died in the explosion, which also caused a nearby

school to collapse. six children were among the 1a people injured. our africa regional editor will ross reports. this was a powerful explosion that reduced buildings to rubble. a car wired up with explosives was driven towards the administration offices as employees were working inside. officials say three soldiers stopped the vehicle from entering the compound prompting the driver to trigger the explosion on the street. the soldiers who died, may well have saved many lives. but across the road the mosque was badly damaged, homes were destroyed and several children at a nearby school were caught up in the blast and rushed to hospital. translation: we were in the middle of our usual work when the middle of our usual work when the explosion happened in front of

oui’ the explosion happened in front of our district office where the building was destroyed, i hid under the table. there was a lot of gunfire at the gate. someone called me to check off we were safe but when i came out i saw many people lying on the ground injured while others were dead. the islamist militant group al—shabab said it carried out the bombing. one of its most devastating attacks was last october, a truck bomb near the entrance to a hotel in mogadishu left more than 500 people dead. the jihadist group has been pushed out of somalia's urban areas but still carries out frequent bomb blasts especially in the capital. it often targets local officials in its effort to overthrow the internationally backed somali government. more than 20,000 african union peacekeepers are in somalia helping the government in the fight against al—shabab. by now those troops are meant to be scaling back and moving towards handing over the

security of the country to somalia's own army, but after delays the handover is at least three years away. the bomb attacks showed just how serious the jihadist threat still is in somalia. video games which allow players to make in—game purchases will have a warning icon on their packaging from christmas. a picture of a hand holding a credit card will appear on boxes. the aim is to warn parents and help them regulate how much money their children can spend. our news correspondent angus crawford has more. once out of the shop, the gaming can start. but so too can the spending. many games allow players to buy things like better guns, new characters or extra features, using real, not digital money. children can run up big bills, and some parents don't find out until it's too late. about 40% of parents apparently let their children spend money in the game. it is becoming more of a common

thing in games, as digital downloads mean you can spend money in the game to get extra content, or there is the rise of these loop boxes and micro—transactions. the industry is aware of the problem. last year, after a public outcry, one game temporarily stopped all in—play purchases. now the european ratings body has decided to act. come christmas, video game boxes will carry a new icon warning parents that children can play and spend at the same time. but will it make any difference? if you have to buy the game and then within the game, to actually play the game, to get the most fun out of that game, you have to spend a lot more money, i think the customer should be informed about that. so yeah, i agree. all the games these days, they have... everything comes with add—ons in the cost. so, it's a good idea to warn people, but at the same time people should probably expected anyway, i think. regulators fear gaming can sometimes look more like gambling.

this new icon perhaps a sign of the industry taking action before it's forced to. angus crawford, bbc news. the irish rock band u2 was forced to abandon a concert in berlin after the lead singer bono suddenly lost his voice on stage. cheering so sorry. clears throat. in a statement, the band apologized for cancelling last night's show. it went on to say that after a few songs, bono suffered a complete loss of voice. it's unclear why — but he's seeking medical advice. the band says that those in the audience last night will be able to return for another u2 concert at a future date. now the weather. some warm weather

for most of us to do but next fortu nes for most of us to do but next fortunes in the sunshine, western areas had lots of cloud. even here we saw a few breaks at times but a cloud thickening up across northern ireland and western scotland bringing some outbreaks of rain which will then sink a little bit further south—east through the night. underneath this type of cloud it will turn into a mild night, newcastle, birmingham, plymouth between 13 and 15. cooler across the south—east with clear spells and a few mist patches and cooler planet earth scotland and northern ireland but it means tomorrow will start sunny here. lovely day in prospect but a cool one. weather france could bring into the eastern side of scotland. bit of rain at times. the south—east holding on to someone they know but that will change as we get deeper into the week. it will turn cooler brawlers, often dry at

first but with the chance of some rain later. former prime minister to adopt the internationally recognised definition of anti—semitism immediately. he said the soul of the party was at stake. theresa may has insisted she will not be forced into watering down her brexit plan

during negotiations with the eu. the prime minister also dismissed calls for a second eu referendum. the number of prison staff caught smuggling banned items into jails in england and wales has increased by more than fifty per cent over the past six years. the prison service said the figures reflect the actions of a tiny minority. the united states says it is cancelling three—hundred million dollars of military aid to pakistan. the pentagon has criticised the country for failing to deal with militant groups sport and for a full round up, from the bbc sport centre, here's james pearce. england's cricketers have beaten india in the fourth test at southampton and now have an unassailable 3—1 lead in the series. they were victors by 60 runs. india, chasing 2115 to win, made a very poor start, slumping to 22—3.

but they always had a chance while kohli was at the crease. he'd survived two big lbw appeals before he was caught by alastair cook on 58, wickets then tumbled. shami was the ninth batsman to fall, caught by anderson. and then it was all over when aswhwin fell lbw to the bowling of sam curran. england victorious by 16 runs. lewis hamilton has produced one of the best drives of his career to win the italian grand prix at monza. hamilton had started the race in third position on the grid, but passed sebastian vettel following a first lap collision, and then overtook kimi raikkonen with 9 laps remaining. nick parrott watched the action. before the lights went out, victory must‘ve felt improbable, if not

impossible for lewis hamilton. lining up behind his rivals, he'd need a fortune on his side to except the odds double victory. the architect of his own downfall, despite edging ahead at the fourth quarter, he did not back off, spinning down the field, his hopes of victory were over. but he battled back to finish what. he looked vulnerable as hamilton briefly passed to them, but patience is one of its virtues and thanks to a better strategy and help from his mercedes team—mate, with nine laps left he got ahead again and stayed there. is there to win equals the great michael schumacher is record and will be sweeter is extending his winning. i want to give it up to ferrari we

we re i want to give it up to ferrari we were brought up a great challenge this weekend. they did a greatjob and give us a great fight. ijust wa nt to and give us a great fight. ijust want to get a huge thank you to the people back on, because about their continued support and afterwards, this would not be possible. steven gerrard's unbeaten run as rangers manager ended with defeat in his first old firm derby. celtic were one nil winners at parkhead, with victory providing a much needed boost for brendan rodgers after an underwhelming start to the season. chris maclaughlin reports. a fixture that really needs a comma brought together and divided by class golf. he said he was ready for the types of tests, but from the birth star his players were battered by the champions and saved by the crossbar. it was the same after the break, a stunning save, but eventually they buckle it claims will waive the way and the frenchman

finally found a way to pass macgregor. relief for his support spoiled by success and fearful of a revival. stevens did a good job so early on this team, getting them organised and lots of numbers, we had to be patient and find the way through but i think it does not really reflect that. rogers and the celtics go on. alexander lacazette scored arsenal's winning goal as they beat cardiff 3—2 in what was the first of three matches in the premier league today. it was one all when pierre emerick aubamayang put the visitors ahead for the second time in the match, curling in this effort. but arsenals's frail defence was again exposed when danny ward pulled his side level. it was left to lacazette to smashed home arsenal's third and that was enough to give unai emery his first away win of the season, having lost their two opening league matches. it isa

it is a great match, it was difficult. and we played the match for many times with dark personality andi for many times with dark personality and i am happy because the team, they got the win. you don't always get what you deserve, but i thought it was a great game. i really enjoyed it, and thatis great game. i really enjoyed it, and that is what i want to set out to do, to give our bands for something to cheer about. i do not think we are, if we try to do that, we would get beaten any how. two 4 o clock kick offs in the premier league this afternoon — watford and tottenhamare both aiming to maintain their 100% records. but a lot of focus has been falling onjose mourinho this week and manchester united's match with burnley, united losing two of three league games, their worst start in 26 years. before the game — a group

of disaffected united fans paid for a banner to be flown over turf moore saying ‘ed woodward — a specialist in failure'. the relationship between woodward — the executive vice—chairman — and managerjose mourinho has been in the spotlight since the summer when mourinho complained about the lack of recruitment at the club. but on the pitch it looks like being a good afternoon for united. they are currently leading 2—0 with about 15 minutes left to play. romelu lu ka ku scored both their goals in the first half. united havejust had marcus rashford sent off and joe hart has saved a penalty.... spurs had an own goal to thank for giving them the lead at watford before troy deeney equalised for the home side and in the last few minutes craig cathcart has put the home side ahead. there were two games today in the championship. bristol city put 4 goals past blackburn, and the east anglia derby ended ipswich 1 norwich 1. ipswich are still looking

the film review on bbc news. to take us through this week's cinema releases is anna smith. it is nice to see you — president of the critics' circle. what have you been watching? we are starting with cold war, taking place in poland and paris and an interesting story of a troubled relationship between a musician and singer. then we are off to sanjose with searching, a missing person thriller told entirely on computer screens. and we have yardie, idris elba's long—awaited directorial debut. let's start with cold war.

it looks beautiful. this is the arthouse choice of the week if you want to see a quality film. i look forward to the work of pawel pawlikowski. last resort was wonderful. my summer of love, where we first met emily blunt. this is shot in black and white and is the story of a relationship between a musician and younger muse who catches his eye when doing auditions for a folk troupe turing the eastern bloc in the late 40s, early 50s. they are separated and come back together over the years and the film follows the progress of their relationship and drops in and out of the tumultuous relationship. there are moments when there is a lot of action in the film. most of the time, it is bleak

but this clip gives you a lively sense of the personality of zula. music: rock around the clock by bill haley. a few too many martinis! she is good at playing drunk. the main actress trained as a musician and music was her background and i assume this is a reason she was chosen. she ended up on a polish tv competition which is how she gained her fame and this echoes that because she is part of this grim x factor in postwar poland. the action moves to paris and it gets more interesting and lost me a little bit, because i always need to feel invested in a central romance. i need to believe they belong together. she is stunningly beautiful and many people will be falling in love with her,

but it is very much from the male character's point of view. maybe that is a reason i was not won over. these are selfish people, who do not help each other in relationships. they make self—serving and mysterious choices. but it is beautifully shot. and a deliberate policy to be black and white, it is running from the 40s to 60s. i walked out of the screening and suddenly the world looks strange in colour. it was evocative. i am interested in the next, an interesting idea. does it work? searching is shown entirely on computer screens — laptops, phones, facetime which has happened before in the horror movie genre but this is not a horror movie. this is a thriller about a missing child. it starts off giving you a lovely montage

of an asian american family in sanjose, who sadly, the mother passes away, and the daughter grows up and goes missing as a teenager and the father is given the task of looking online, trying to find out... looking at her search history, what might be going on, whether she has run away, washing hanging out with unsavoury characters online? every parent's worst nightmare going through his head. an fbi agent helps to track her down. it was remarkably effective and you sort of forget you are watching one computer screen in the main. it is like looking over someone's shoulder at something interesting on the computer. does it last for the duration of the feature film? it does. i have seen it twice and it got me both times, first time you enjoy the story, it is a tight thriller. it is not a violent

thriller which is great. there are things that look like jokes, but they are great big clues so keep your eyes peeled. we must talk about idris elba, people are excited he is turning to directing. i would love to say it is fantastic. it is a so—so one from me, but he has not done too badly, a solid debut. yardie the book was a cult hit in the 90s when people sold it from record shops and the back of vans. it is about 1970s jamaica and moving into 1980s hackney. aml ameen is terrific in the lead role. we will see in the clip that his character, d, comes to the uk to deal drugs but falls back into family life with his ex—girlfriend and child. ah. that good.

i never tink i would feel the sun on mi face again, you know. d, the first time i come this cold place, mi think mi just shrivel up and die. go on, i'll take you back home. yeah, i mek enough money i could buy a house for the tree of you. d. any of them you like by the sea, any of them. d. come now. this place is not like home at all, but mi feel safe. here? here. i won't go back. not even for by the sea. not even for that. come, we're going home. but i want to stay! mummy has work, vanessa. she can stay with me. by the sea. he—he! decent performances and a nice sense of time and place. i found some of the dialogue a little bit too straightforward and the film relies on drama than clever touches all comedy.

it is worth seeing and wonderful he has done this. and something we do not see much on film but a long way to go in terms of directing. very much recreating the hackney he grew up in. it is nice on a human level he recreated his life story. and it will go down a storm in hackney, definitely. idris elba's directorial debut. now, best out. i have not seen this. i have seen the trailer. even the trailer, i was slightly cringing. even though kate mckinnon is talented. i would agree because i saw the trailer and thought i was not looking forward to. it is of the few better than the trailer. kate mckinnon is brilliant, from ghostbusters. it is mila kunis who finds out her boyfriend was a spy.

they go on the run and they have various missions. what i liked about this, they are two women you believe our friends. their characters and relationship drives the film and on that level a lot of fun and better than you think. that is going on the poster! i suppose that is a fun thing about it. how often do we have two women as the central characters in this style of film? and a female director in the form of suzanne vogel. and dvd? tully will keep you guessing. they worked together on juno, which is the pregnancy one and this is the motherhood one.

charlize theron needs a night nanny. and the night nanny comes in and it is about a charismatic nanny that comes in, but what is she up to? is there an element of the hand that rocks the cradle? they are all talented. that is a winner. that is your dvd for the week if you fancy staying in. nice to see you. enjoy your cinema going whatever you decide to see. an interesting week and plenty to go and watch. see you next time. goodbye. hello there. today we saw

temperatures climbing. a warm day for many of us but sunshine did very, no shortage of sunshine, a different story of red here though. many western areas through the day, breaking upa many western areas through the day, breaking up a little bit of this type of cloud here is starting to introduce some rain into the far northwest of the country pushing across northern ireland and the western side of scotland to the evening and thinking down past england and wales as the night wears on. underneath this, with the outbreaks of rain it will turn into a pretty mild night, but towards the southeast, and the frontal system, we will see the eye patch, it'll be quite a cool night in certain recent chilly developing across northern ireland as the skies clear out. the weather front still sitting in ireland as the skies clear out. the weatherfront still sitting in place as we look through tomorrow, a bit of been a mess that didn't runs on

the front. some cooler air and the northwest, lots of warmer air, temperatures into the mid—20s and then we have our weather front just into mid—20s and then we have our weather frontjust into the eastern and southern scotland, some heavy rain for a time into the northwest of that we will see some sunny spells, but temperatures from 19 degrees where the southeast and into the mid—20s. during tuesday, ourweather front is still sitting around this band of cloud, the showering rain at times, just 21 degrees in the at this stage. a similar day, patches clearing to the sunny smile but later in the day, it looks like we'll see some rain pushing into northern ireland and western scotla nd northern ireland and western scotland in this means that there is some complications near the end of the week. it looks like this weather

system will spin itself up to an area of low pressure. it is certainly looking like a more u nsettled certainly looking like a more unsettled and to the week. so for the next few days, turning cooler, often dry at first but later in the week, there's the chance some rain. this is bbc news. i'm rebecca jones. the headlines at six... the former prime minister gordon brown, calls on the labour party to adopt the internationally recognised definition of anti—semitism, saying the soul of party is at stake. the international holocaust remembrance alliance definition of semitism is something that we should support unanimously, unequivocally and immediately. it will be resolved and there will be a balance of acceptance as people want, but also exactly what other people have said as well, and lord sacks himself,

that freedom of speech is important as well. theresa may dismisses calls for a second eu referendum, and insists she won't make compromises on her brexit chequers plan that aren't in the national interest.
