roaming without the bills. looking good! and cat learns the secrets of horse whispering. hello, and welcome to the travel show, coming to you this week from the heart of central london. this place is known around the world for its red buses, red postboxes and these guys, the humble london red phone box. but time could soon be up for these iconic though now fairly little—used landmarks of street life in the capital. the red phone box is synonymous with london. when they were first introduced

in the 1920s they gave many poorer londoners access to a telephone for the very first time, and after countless appearances in films, tv shows and movie studios, they became something of an icon both here and around the world. you come to london, you see the red telephone box. the first thing that comes into my mind when i think of britain, the queen or the red phone booth. although as more people got access to their own phone at home, the numbers of actual calls being made from them dropped. but it was the arrival of the mobile phone that really sounded the death knell for these pieces of london history. now, i can remember when i first came here 20 years ago, using a phone box was a really big event, it was like, "i have arrived in london."

i probably took several dozen selfies in one of these things. these days it is just clear it isn't being used much. and frankly it isn't the nicest place to be. the smell is not ideal, either. i might get out of here. even though a lot of these phone boxes are not in the best of shape now, there is a group of londoners who still take pride in them, and the postcard image they portray. i thinkjust because phone boxes are british icons, for them to look scruffy in the photos that are going back around the world with tourists after their holidays, i didn't like that idea. so i thought, why not clean them up? it's only polite. seeing one in a completely sorry state was almost like seeing an elderly relative in distress or something. we like to help her, we think it is a worthy cause and we are loyal friends.

it looks nice when they are all scrubbed up. emily and her band of volunteers regularly spend their spare time sprucing up phone boxes like these for sightseers. but it looks like even their valiant efforts might not be enough to save them. they are difficult to keep clean and they're not very easy for people with disabilities to use, and we are obliged to have a quite high percentage of payphones which can be used by people with disabilities. over the next couple of years, a new high—tech wi—fi enabled street phone is being unveiled across the streets of london. so how do they compare? well, this does not look like a phone booth. there is no booth! it looks like a smartphone, actually. all right, how does this work? just pop in my number. there is no receiver. hello?

hello, it is me. i'm at a fancy new phone booth. can you hear me? yes, i can hear you. excellent. all right, see you later. well, it's not very private, but it is free, so that's good. so the question is, what's going to happen to the old red phone boxes we've all come to know and love? some have been put up for sale, and some are being offered to local communities to turn into things like public libraries. others are already being rented out to businesses who see the beauty in keeping things small, like fouad, who now repairs phones inside a phone box. closed, locked, secure. i am not claustrophobic at all. if you work in an iconic place,

you are iconic too! other businesses that have cropped up include cafes, coffee bars, and souvenir shops, all crammed inside a square metre of floor space. if you think of all the conversations these four walls must have overheard, and declarations of love, cries of emergency or whispers of espionage. these walls have heard it all, every type of conversation. and i think it is sad to see them now empty. as yet, there is no set date for when the last of the red phone boxes will be removed from the streets of london, but i for one really hope they remain part of the cityscape, even if it is just for the tourists to take selfies with. and if you're thinking of heading to london while we still have our red phone boxes, here are some travel show tips of things to see and do while you are here.

the end of october marks the uk's museums at night week. they are weird and fascinating institutions, throwing open their doors late right across the country. if you are staying in the capital, though, you might want to check out the atmospheric sirjohn soane‘s museum, or an ‘80s—themed night at the london transport museum. november 5 is bonfire night, marking the date when catholic conspirator guy fawkes was arrested for trying to blow up the houses of parliament. there are busy, fun fireworks displays everywhere. for some of the biggest, head to alexandra palace, where there is a beer festival, djs and skating rink. or head south of the river to blackheath, which is free of charge. if you're after something a bit more peaceful you will be able to see the autumn leaves at their best

from the treat of walkways at kew gardens, and while you are there, kew‘s temperate house has just reopened after five years of renovation work. it's the world's largest victorian glasshouse and contains globally important collections of some of the world's rarest plants. finally, london begins to prepare itself for the frantic christmas period, with the opening of its ice rinks halfway through november. it is probably best to go early, before the world's shoppers descend on the city in december. they are busy and can be expensive, but an hour spent skating in the splendour of the natural history museum or somerset house is plenty of fun. next this week, we're off to turkey for a little taste of ice cream. but it's not the flavours we have gone there for. ordering one in some parts of the country has become something of a test of your sense of humour. we went to istanbul to check it out. it is very fun, even when you know what is going to happen,

you fall for it every time. it is really good, it is really fresh and the taste is really good. stay with us. coming up on the travel show, lucy is back with the best tech for your travels. this time it's pain—free roaming. how to stay connected without paying the price. and cat is putting her horse whispering skills to the test, with the native marwari horses rarely seen outside india. this week we are talking about mobile wi—fi hotspots,

and today i'll be putting three of them through their paces, except i'm not abroad right now. so i'll be switching my phone to aeroplane mode, using only the data from each device to essentially replicate what happens when you're away. our challenge is to use three different roaming devices to find out what they've got. first up is the skyroam solis. the company promises 4g and lte coverage in more than 130 countries and uses a virtual sim, so you don't need a physical sim card. it offers unlimited data and the option to connect up to five devices do it. it also doubles up as a power bank as it has a 6000 milliamp battery. so, i am testing out the internet connection with a video call.

let's see how it goes. scott, how are you going? i'm all good, thank you. i want to confirm where we are meeting later. regents park. i think i know where that is. i'll see you there. see you. so that was pretty pain—free. we connected almost instantly with no lag. thumbs up. the initial cost isn't cheap. at £135 to the device, and then £8 for 2h hours of roaming, or a flat fee of £79 a month. next up is the glocalme g3. this offers 4g lte coverage in 100 countries. like the skyroam, it relies on cloud sim technology, as opposed to a local sim card. you can choose an amount to top up, or selected from the data packages. it doubles as a power back with a 5000 milliamp battery. i found that lasts around 15 hours.

it doesn't look like your average hotspot. it is quite chunky. in fact, it kind of reminds me of an old gen smartphone. it is certainly bigger than any device i've used. expected it to way down your pocket. the initial upfront cost is £119.99. every device has one gig of free data, then the data packages start from as little as 1.50 euro. you can top all the way up to 100 euros. payment can be done via paypal, so it's pretty hasslefree. i have downloaded a bike sharing app. it seems pretty seamless as if i was connected to my mobile data. it is now telling me where the closest bike is. let's go and find it. so i've found my bike. it means it's time to put away the glocalme g3 and start using my third device, the tp-link m7450. it relies on a micro sim card rather than a virtual sim like the other two devices. basically you pay in full upfront. that means you can choose from a number of data packages for superfast 4g access.

i'm using google maps to go and find scott in the park. so far, so good. it is £149.99 upfront. and then it's up to the user to purchase sim and data deals from network operators at home or locally. hi. how's it going? good. nice to meet you. scott, connecting to mobile wi—fi hotspots is a convenient way to access the internet abroad. but if you don't have one of those devices, i guess hopping onto a public wi—fi hotspot is the next best option, would you say? yeah, pretty much. it's the only real thing left you have if you do not have a data package on your phone. when you're on a network like that, anyone around you can see what you're doing. connecting to a coffee shop here, and we are both on the same network in the same location, i can see what other people around me are doing. for me, when i travel, i usually use the data on my phone, so it is great for us in europe because we now have european data roaming. but i appreciate for a lot of people, and for me in other countries, it's not an option.

so if i have to use a wi—fi network in a pub or a restaurant when i'm travelling, i always use my vpn. for those who don't know what a vpn is, could you briefly explain what that is? it's a virtual private network by its proper name. your install it on your phone or whatever your device is and then usually it is a subscription—based service. they are cheap now. you can get them for pounds a month. it makes a secure connection from your device to whoever you choose as your vpn provider. they are very cheap and easy to install and offer you a lot of protection for minimal effort. and not as scary as they sound. they're not, they're really not. and finally, we are in gurugram in india, where cat moh gets to grips with the country's first natural horsemanship course, and learns about the native marawi horses that can only be seen in this part of the world. horses have played a vital part in indian culture — from helping labourers in the field,

to being part of ceremonial activities, such as weddings. but this is stable is the only place in the country that runs a natural horsemanship course, also known as horse whispering. and i'm here to find out exactly what that is. hi! hi. i'm cat. when you find the sweet spot of the horse... yes... manjeev and charlotte are a husband and wife team that have a special interest in the marawi breed, characterised by their curved pointy ears. it is rare to see them outside of india because they are banned from export. natural horsemanship is a way where we understand psychology of the horses. 0k. enjoy yourfreedom. wait, what you doing to make her turn? i'm crossing her shoulders in.

yeah. so that creates a barrier the horse. right. if i stay behind, i increase her speed. oh, interesting. but the moment i block her, here — so that's how they understand in the wild. the alpha male works according to these formulas. so you have established yourself as the alpha. yes. they are a herd animal. they need one leader. 0k. either you become leader or they become leader. right. this horse was rescued from a brick factory two weeks ago. her leg was injured and the owner was struggling to take care of her. manjeev and charlotte have been looking after her using this method. looking good. my turn now. she is questioning the authority. just a little bit more. she turned! 0k. stay in the circle. manjeev says their courses have become popular with companies from delhi sending their employees here for team—building exercises. in the office, you won't see what team member has

what kind of potential. but when they come across the horses, horses try and pinch all your nerves. they don't let you clot, because they don't give you time to think about it. you will see out of ten people one will become a natural leader. or one who is just trying to control everybody. so you can see what kind of personality every team member has, which makes it easier on a day—to—day basis to run your business. shall we see if we can bring her in? yeah. ok, to her back. keep her in view. you don't want the horse to run you over. sorry i was not quite the fearless leader. laughter. most of their foreign visitors come from the uk, switzerland, and dubai — mainly travellers looking to learn more about the special breed, and also about natural horsemanship, staying from two hours to two weeks. so it is lunchtime for the horses. yummy, yummy.

lunch is served. dozens of horses live at these stables, located at la pegasus polo centre by the aravalli hills. it is a big operation with lots of people involved. most are polo ponies. it is hoped that these marawi horses will be up to play polo too. will be able to play polo too. their gentle temperament is suited for beginners. this groom comes from a village injodphur, hundreds of miles away. for him, helping to rehabilitate these horses and training them to play polo is his passion. do you think people's ideas are changing about the sport in india? for decades, it was only feasible to play polo if you belonged

to the army. but in recent years it has become more accessible to civilians in india. this polo centre is one of the biggest in the country. tarun sirohi, who runs it, learnt to play in the army and captained india forfour years, but he wants to promote the sport outside of army circles. so are you trying to make equestrian sports more popular? because at the moment everyone is so obsessed with cricket here. absolutely right. it has become a religion here. everyone eats, sleeps, breathes cricket. so what's the strategy for getting more people interested ? the idea is that la pegasus becomes a place where anyone who wants to come and learn the sport

can come and do that. we have a variety of memberships from kids to adults. i have 1a, 15, 16—year—old kids learning. but on the other side, i also have a lot of 40—year—olds learning, when they're trying to rediscover their lives when a midlife crisis hits. it's never too late. yes, i keep saying when the midlife crisis hits, it is time to either get a new girlfriend or learn polo. the marawi horses manjeev and charlotte are training aren't quite ready to play. and people still prefer to use thoroughbreds, but they're hoping to find a place of on the field. a place for them on the field. they also plan to open a groom school to train up more people in the way of natural horsemanship as equestrian sport in india increases in popularity. well, that is all we have time for on this week's show. join us next week if you can, when...

mike corey travels to kazakhstan, where he'll be finding out how important nature continues to be to the traditionally nomadic people of the world's ninth largest country, as well as for travellers who visit there. all that and a lot more on next week's travel show. in the meantime, you can catch up with us on social media and share your travel stories with us in the world. with us and the world. until next time, though, from me, christa larwood, in the real chill in the air. it had all the makings of a beautiful day at sunrise in aberdeen. for the rest of today, most places are looking mainly fine. there is something a bit different over the far north—west of the country. the best of the sunshine today is to be found to further west you are. we will

keep some sunny spells at times, but the north—west of scotland will see thicker cloud and outbreaks of rain. these wind speeds are the steady wind speeds we can expect. gusts of wind speeds we can expect. gusts of wind over the far north—west of scotla nd wind over the far north—west of scotland perhaps up to 50 or 55 mph. quite blustery. 12 degrees in stornoway. 18 in london. about what we would expect for this time of year. this evening and tonight, rain and the north west of scotland will sink south eastwards. the rain tending to fizzle, but we keep our band of client. tempter is not dropping quite as far as they will elsewhere when we keep the clear skies into the south. sunspots could get down to freezing. it will turn chilly again to the north of our band of cloud. here is the weather front drifting southwards through the first part of tomorrow. behind that, we get into a very chilly

north or north—westerly wind, coming from a long way north. our old weather front, are band from a long way north. our old weatherfront, are band of cloud, perhaps the odd spot of drizzle continues to drift south eastwards. for northern ireland and scotland, some good spells of sunshine, a showers blowing in on that northerly wind and was temperatures taking a bit of a tumble. 11—15d at best. we start the new working week and will be stuck between low pressure from scandinavia and high pressure to the west. bringing in a fairly keen north—easterly breeze. frilly cooled it come on monday. dry weather around this week and tempters for a little while will recover. —— temperatures. this is bbc news i'm shaun lay. the headlines at 11.00am. hundreds of people are killed after a powerful earthquake triggers a tsunami sending huge waves through an indonesian city
