than average. cooling down overnight because we have high pressure from the south—west but cooler air around the south—west but cooler air around the top of that, temperatures close to freezing in rural areas on thursday. residual cloud in southern counties, misty for a while but thursday looking like a nice day with sunshine around, light winds and those temperatures not bad for the time of year. lowered after that chilly start on thursday. high pressure towards the end of the week and toppling into that, these weather systems from the atlantic. most of the rain will be in the morning, heading into scotland and northern ireland, that weatherfront will weaken as it topples down into the far north of england and north wales. south and east of that, mist and fog in the morning, but brightening up with sunshine and decent temperatures for the time of year. hello. this is bbc news with martine croxall. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment — first the headlines. a number of unresolved issues relating to northern ireland. following a crunch meeting between the brexit secretary and the eu chief negotiator, a joint statement says the uk is still committed to

making progress at the eu summit on wednesday. the un warns that 13 million people in yemen are at risk of starvation, in what could become the world's worst famine in a century. they are calling for an end to the saudi led air strikes which are putting civilians at further risk. france, germany and the uk issue a joint statement demanding a credible investigation in to the disappearance of the journalist, jamal khashoggi who vanished after visiting saudi arabia's consulate in turkey. in response the saudi's say they will retaliate against any sanctions imposed on them. after the storm, the clean up — roads and railways continue to struggle following a battering from storm callum. trains in devon are disrupted along the coast after flood damage caused a 6ft hole to open up beneath the line. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be

bringing us tomorrow. with me are martin bentham, who's the home affairs editor at the london evening standard, and martin lipton, who's chief sports report for the sun. most of tomorrow's front pages are now in. the times says last—ditch brexit talks in brussels broke up after little more than an hour, with both sides saying there had been no consensus. the same story is covered in the guardian, which says the irish border issue could place the entire brexit deal at risk. david davis, the former brexit secretary, is warning of a leadership challenge if number io doesn't change tack on brexit — that's according to the i. half of the cabinet are apparently set to quit over brexit, in a fresh blow to theresa may — so says the express. the ft also leads on brexit. but the paper also carries a picture of csu members in munich, as they learnt of their worst ever performance in nearly 70 years. the sun says strictly come dancing judges were furious that seann and katya escaped the chop, despite their kissing controversy. the kremlin is trying

to recruit british spies, prompting an urgent warning from the foreign office — that's according to the daily mirror. and the daily mail says elderly people could be prescribed dance lessons on the nhs, to help combat loneliness. so, a varied set of front pages — let's see what our reviewers make of it all. first we must look at this rather wonderful photo of the foreign secretaryjeremy wonderful photo of the foreign secretary jeremy hunt. wonderful photo of the foreign secretary jeremy hunt. he has taken them all into the middle of the maze at his country residence. acknowledging that the challenging nature of the maze but by comparison saying it makes brexit discussions seem straightforward. you think this lot would be able to get out? they wouldn't be able to reach an agreement. it's a great picture. they look like teletubbies. the

point is, he says it is easier to resolve brexit than to get out of this maze. i wonder whether theresa may would agree. she is stuck in the middle of a mess of her own making, it seems. the headline, irish border derails brexit talks. they are on a knife edge last night... this is supposed to be a deal signed off on wednesday, it is not going to be signed off. there is talk of potential cabinet resignations. with every passing day, it becomes more and more of a mess and the biggest problem is that the timetable for

getting an agreement is rapidly disappearing. we all looking at a weeks. what was months and years before that is now weeks. this is the red line, this hard border idea that nobody wants to countenance. what do you do about geography? if the technology isn't there yet to resolve the issue of the hard border? plymouth that is one think that this is all about the backstop which is about not having a hard border in ireland. —— luna this is the one thing. —— this is the one thing. it is not palatable for brexiteers who want us to leave. we agreed to this backstop initially in the december framework agreement to move onto the next stage and the idea of what our government wants and believes is a time—limit so we

are not stuck having a border at in the irish sea which is unacceptable to this country, to have this division between the mainland and the irish and indeed unacceptable to the irish and indeed unacceptable to the scottish secretary and so on because it is dividing up our own country and unacceptable to theresa may and what she hasn't been able to get it any commitment so far from the eu is to get this time limited so the eu is to get this time limited so when we go on to discuss the future arrangements which everybody hopes will apply rather than ones that apply through a default failure, then we can... we are arguing now and the argument continues to be about something which all sides say they don't want to come into effect. on the daily express, half of the cabinet are threatening to quit over brexit because they don't like the planet theresa may... i suspect that is a

slight oversell. we know people are not happy. there is a suggestion that dominic raab wouldn't be happy. if any of the cabinet walked out, there is no way theresa may can remain at prime minister. you cannot lose the support of half the people you have pointed to theirjobs will stop it is a critical week. their jobs. it is a critical week. for that purpose. at some point, the government has got to... and it could get pushed to november. it could get pushed to november. it could get pushed down the line. ultimately, the government has got to take a position, it has got to either reach an agreement to try and ram that through cabinet and then parliament in one shape or form or it has got to admit defeat, in effect, that we haven't got a deal.

either way, that is difficult to theresa may. here is another one. sta rt theresa may. here is another one. start implementing no deal plans now. what we were told about on friday, a bigger car park in the 26 overnight because of getting the things through customs. no trains going to the continent, no horse is going to the continent, no horse is going to the continent. we have already had the fears about flying, the fears about doctor eileen. the government's version about what will happen if there is no dealfoster that sounds pretty pot apocalyptic. —— then trying to force, even in the civil service, try to force the

government to back down. it's trying to make clear and concentrate the minds of some people who otherwise would not support the deal to recognise the potential risk. albeit, you have got to say, we do actually trade with lots of other parts of the world without being in the single market or customs union and lots of things light in and out of the country and so on quite successfully from other parts of the world. there is obviously a short—term issue and disrupted effect of that. if you are talking about significant demolition of gdp over a number of years, about significant demolition of gdp overa number of years, it about significant demolition of gdp over a number of years, it not clever from any government. we are certainly subject to eu regulations as well. we could talk about that... caroline flint is one of the most impressive labour mps and this is a bit of good news for theresa may, she says she might back a reasonable

brexit deal voted via theresa may rather than back down. there are labour mps. the labour official line is they will vote against but there are some like marilyn —— caroline flint. this is a joint statement from france, germany and britain saying saudi arabia has to come up with answers about what happened to this journalist, jamal khashoggi.l lot of bluster from saudi arabia. of course it has big oil reserves and big oil supply that ultimately in a battle with the us in particular, ultimately, there is only going to be one winner enact and clearly what has happened and what seems to have happened was this man went into the

saudi continent and has not been seen since. there is a allegedly video and audio of him being killed, dismembered and someone. it's quite clear the saudis have to explain what has happened here and if there is some diplomatic punishment or whatever. .. is some diplomatic punishment or whatever. . . there is some diplomatic punishment or whatever... there is a lot of trade done with saudi arabia, particularly arms deals which would confuse the issue. if we are losing markets elsewhere, we are not going to want to shut down a burgeoning trade market with the saudis, are we? we can threaten and bluster and they know that we may need to them more than they need us. the us is a different story, though. what about this? russian spies targeted an ex-

mi6. russians regard them as high priority targets. the russians turning members of ex— mi6. priority targets. the russians turning members of ex- mi6. dance lessons for the lonely on the nhs? she wants to roll—out cookery classes, walking clubs, theresa may. they haven't splashed on brexit partly because they are trying to get away from a subject which for a lot of people is a bit of a turnoff for readers so they are trying to do something different which is a tactic that papers will often do on a complicated and difficult story that people love that up with

hearing about, perhaps. what they are talking about is this new loneliness and initiative by the prime minister to try to address the problems of a large number of people, particularly older people, who are lonely. dance lessons, postmen visiting, tried to check up oi'i postmen visiting, tried to check up on lonely people, so on. some of them might not be easy to deliver but the intent, certainly, is a very good one. clearly, people are a bit more isolated in today's society. particularly with divorce as the reality of people dying and leaving people on their own and wondering who to turn to when francis moved away. looma geographical —— friends have moved away. and geographical mobility. strictly exclusive, this says. judges are furious that sean

walsh and cut yetjones survived the cut. —— seann walsh and katya jones. everyone is upset and annoyed except the viewers who voted them in and said goodbye to katie piper. he has become the right of rats at the moment, it seems, has seann walsh. where the extra income is from is interesting. —— the extra n. where the extra income is from is interesting. —— the extra ni where the extra income is from is interesting. -- the extra n. i don't know why you can't hear it. wouldn't really help if you added an nto wouldn't really help if you added an n to your name. katie piper left, people rooting for her would be disappointed, but maybe this controversy has kept them in. disappointed, but maybe this controversy has kept them inm
