it looks like we will keep this quiet autumn weather going through the week ahead dominated by a large area of high pressure. earlier on it was here to the south—west, but it is moving to the uk right now, building in between these two weak weather funds that are slowing down gci’oss weather funds that are slowing down across our shores and we were sitting in between two weather fronts for most of the day on wednesday. so there is some hazy sunshine here and there. probably blue sky on thursday although against southern parts of england will see some cloud at times. it should be dry and bright. we will see some cloud coming in on the south—westerly breeze to the north—west scotland. in between lots of sunshine around. temperatures may be lower. it will be pleasant in the sunshine. 16 in london. 1a or 15 elsewhere. temperatures will drop away quickly under the clear skies. we will see some patchy fog forming across eastern england. this band of rain moving to the north—west. head

of that these are the temperatures, easily down to four or five degrees in rural areas easily down to four or five degrees in ruralareas in easily down to four or five degrees in rural areas in particular. a chilly start. the fog lifting across eastern england. this weakening band of cloud and rain moves towards northern england. sunshine follows behind across scotland and this sunny and mild weather continues to the south—east of england. 17 or 18 degrees. it looks like it will be quite mild into the weekend. we have high pressure, we have atlantic wind toppling around the top of the area of high pressure, and rain coming to the northern half of scotland. at the northern half of scotland. at the end of the day it is mostly across the north—west scotland. south of that, mist and fog in the morning across eastern wales, west midlands, which should lift, with plenty of sunshine for england and wales. a warmer day for eastern scotla nd wales. a warmer day for eastern scotland than it has been over the past few days. the next weather front, the cold front, following the warm front, into scotland and

northern ireland. high pressure to the south. what we will find is while it will give rain to scotland and northern ireland on sunday, as a band of cloud moves southwards, the rain will peter out. into the high—pressure agent. ahead of that temperatures of 16 or 17 degrees with some sunshine. beginning to turn a bit cooler. and northern ireland. the weak weather front, you can see there is no rain on it, slips away and we draw down some cool air around the top of the area of high pressure. more of a western north—westerly breeze, like in most areas, more sunshine around widely but increasing cloud into scotland and perhaps outbreaks of rain. temperatures won't be as high on monday, around about 11 or 12 degrees. let's look ahead to the outlook and high pressure is going to be sitting it out here in the outlook for the next week. that's really going to shape our weather. it means we will find some areas of cloud, weather fronts toppling around. most of the rain for the

northern half of the uk. quite a few isobars on the chart, stronger winds coming in. the really cold air, that's missing us, but there will be a chill to the breeze probably as the week goes on. so cool probably for next week. probably not much mist and fog around. there will be some sunshine around. many places will be dry. most of the rent will be in the north—west of scotland. that's it. goodbye. hello. this is bbc news with julian worricker. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment. first, the headlines:

theresa may has addressed eu leaders in brussels, urging them to show courage, trust and leadership to reach a brexit deal. by working intensively over the next days and weeks, i believe we can achieve a deal — a deal that i believe everybody wants and a deal that is in the interests notjust of the uk, but also of the european union. but in a blow to the pm, the group have abandoned the idea of calling a special summit on brexit next month due to lack of progress in the talks. and in other news, severe disruption to railjourneys to and from paddington today and warnings there will be more in the morning after damage to overhead power lines. turkish investigators enter the residence of the saudi consul in istanbul to gather more evidence about the suspected killing of saudi journalist jamal khashoggi. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be

bringing us tomorrow. with me are kate andrews, news editor at the institute of economic affairs, and the political editor of the new statesman, george eaton. welcome back to both of you. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. the i says theresa may could ask to extend the transtion period, where the uk still follows eu rules after brexit, to make time for a deal to be finalised. the telegraph goes with the same story, describing the move as playing for time. the mail front pages also leads with the story, bemoaning another year in brexit limbo. the metro reports that french president macron is threatening to declare all brits living in the country illegal immigrants in the event of a no—deal brexit. the express says esther rantzen thinks scrapping free tv licences for the over 75s would be an act of cruelty. the mirror has an interview

with poisoned spy sergi skripal‘s mother. and the guardian has a picture of eastenders actor danny dyer dressed as an elizabethan nobelman to promote a new popular history tv series. so a vaired set of front pages, let's take a look at some of those stories in more detail. george, kick us the sun front—page. -- kick george, kick us the sun front—page. —— kick us off. george, kick us the sun front—page. -- kick us off. cynically, we know what happens when a game goes to extra time, the english lose. i think in this case the eu have the stronger side, they'd be more united, more disciplined. it's among the british side that you've had players... punch—ups on the pitch, doubts over whether you want to change the manager. in the end, the

result, it would be hard for theresa may or whoever is conservatively dug by the time you get a settlement to say this is an improvement on the current terms —— conservative leader. england started winning penalty shootouts at the last world cup, though? they did. theresa may can cling to that hope. is this the kiss of death, the paper also asks, with reference to the meeting of mrs may and mrjuncker. with reference to the meeting of mrs may and mrjuncker. it doesn't seem like that much has changed. they're both still hunkering down in their positions that do not come together to create one cohesive deal, so kiss of death would suggest we've moved to things being on the brink. i don't think we've moved much at all in the last two years. to george's point, what's the point? people are frustrated about a two—year transition period, this is what we ask of politicians, why can't you get this over the line in two years? what about the third year will make

this the perfect deal that keeps the two sides close, give the uk everything it wants out of the brexit proposals? at the moment there's not much evidence that there are plans to get anything better. the sun says the move would run the risk of infuriating hard—line brexiteers intent on leaving next march, and that's a distinct possibility? i'm sure you will have more talk tomorrow that the tory rebels are near the 48 letters they would need to trigger a confidence vote in theresa may. the problem there is even if you do get that number, you don't have their 158 mps to win that vote. this is why theresa may's position is often stronger than people suggest. mps can't agree on who they would want to replace her if ousted. cake, the guardian front page, with this suggestion that nothing much has changed? the guardian has a negative headline on the 20 minute address to

the eu 27 -- headline on the 20 minute address to the eu 27 —— kate. we've seen negative headlines in the daily mail as well and across the board, regardless of editorial viewpoint, people don't think her call for an extra year for a transition is a very positive one, especially without policy proposals to do with the irish backstop, what chequers could be amended to look like to make the eu happier and vice—versa. the question here politically is who does that extra transition period make happy? who is smiling at this news tonight? i think very few people will be doing so. it's unsurprising theresa may isn't offering any new ideas at this stage because the political space for her to do so is so limited. there's no conservative majority in the house, they are dependent on the dup, the northern irish party, for their majority. relations with them are already at their lowest since the election so theresa may thinks the only option is for them to keep insisting this is the only offer available, to make slight

amendments, this talk of an extra year, to hide something, somewhere rescues her. that's where she's having a particularly tough time because the eu keep wanting to... —— to hope something, somewhere rescues her. it's becoming clearer there are other options on the table and that free trade agreement the eu wants is becoming a loud argument in the uk. this waiting game of an extra year could prove in the eu's favour, but a lot of uk people would be thinking, surely you can get this over the line by now. the difficulty the prime ministerfaces is highlighted in this speech, peace, referring to the european parliament chair, saying mrs may appeared neutral on extending the transition —— this speech, referring to. the sense that you dare not move much in any direction. absolutely. the problem for theresa may is there's

clearly a deal that can be reached, you can see the steps she needs to ta ke to you can see the steps she needs to take to make it but the problem is taking those steps makes it more likely when the deal comes to the uk parliament it will be voted down, then you have a political crisis. katie, on the front of the metro, it doesn't appear that mr macron is helping mrs may much at the moment? —— metro. one of the first things that would be agreed would be the status of the other's foreign citizens in the other countries. that would be easy to address because there was a mass agreement uk citizens in europe and vice—versa should have the chance to stay and not feel threatened and not feel like they would be kicked out. here, more than two years into the vote, we have a emmanuel macron saying they would instantly be deemed illegal immigrants if the uk crashes out with no deal —— we have a emmanuel macron. this can be interpreted in a number of ways —— emmanuel macron. i think macron sees

the benefits of a no—deal brexit for france. this is his opportunity to play hardball france. this is his opportunity to play hard ball and to france. this is his opportunity to play hardball and to potentially boost to some of his own figures and popularity within france to show he's willing to take a stance. george, how do you see this?m theresa may wants favours, they're not going to come from emmanuel macron. in some ways this is the mistake she's made all along, the same mistake david cameron made, the idea national leaders will come to your rescue. the eu commission takes this very strict, technocratic approach. you'll remember theresa may tried to charm macron over the summer, she went to his holiday resort. she hoped all along that angela merkel will come to her rescue. the problem is they have domestic audiences too, and they have... they're politically restricted too. this idea that the eu will come to britain's rescue will offer may a solution and an

escape route... it's quite naive. the hard—line emmanuel macron is taking is designed to cast him as the hard—line politician in europe. this is a draft bill, the paper says, not a great deal of detail here because there's more inside. it's hard to tell at this point how concrete this potentially is. in that first sentence it says if the uk crashes out with no deal, which, as farasl uk crashes out with no deal, which, as far as i know, is the goal from almost anybody's perspective. but it is still quite a strong threat, whether it is proposed, or a consideration after no deal. one of the crucial thing is the eu and the uk decided was that citizens in each other's countries must feel like they're protected. of all people, especially macron, loses the value of the freedom of movement and the inclusiveness, for him to say this is buried political and i think quite nasty. and many french people are living in the uk. absolutely. it

doesn't line up with many of his policies, which is why it is deeply political and very wrongheaded. george, you made the point about his la ptop george, you made the point about his laptop popularity at home? his approval ratings are lower than hollande's at this stage and they we re hollande's at this stage and they were so hollande's at this stage and they were so low he didn't stand for re—election —— his popularity at home? i suspect there will be more interventions of this kind. going to the ft, murdoch's children aged down to get $2 billion from the breakup of the media empire. kate, quite a sum. “ of the media empire. kate, quite a sum. -- each down. his decision to break up the media empire and sell on the entertainment business to what disney will reap a lot of financial benefit to his financial trust, and it's estimated that each of his children will get $2 billion from that breakup. it's very good to bea from that breakup. it's very good to be a murdoch child receiving that huge sum. i would say lots of people

look at these figures and say it's obscene, who needs that amount? when this kind of wealth is generated, wherever it is spent in any scenario, it will be taxed. abbey and of the day, public services reap the benefit of people being this successful —— the benefit of people being this successful — — at the benefit of people being this successful —— at the end of the day. that's not necessarily something for the murdochs or any family, but overall, to celebrate. trickle-down economics? it is not trickle down to any extent. when people are successful, we have systems in the us and uk where we expect some of that to go into public services, that's not trickle down economics, it is taxation and we recognise it is important. george? it caught my eye, there are six of them after all, divided between quite a lot of people! this is seen by some as a retreat from rupert murdoch. the interesting question is what will the murdoch empire do with this big cash pile now? rupert murdoch may still be 87 but he has ambitions and

he's re— focusing around his traditional core products, his newspapers here and in the us and australia. fox news in the us. he's still very close to donald trump in the us, close to politicians here. i do think... don't think he's out of the game yet. i think he'll be planning to antagonise his many photos for several years to come. let's turn to the express, two stories, one on the front, one on the inside, george, scrapping free tv licence act of cruelty, quoting esther rantzen. this story is interesting because we have a talk of the end of austerity, which theresa may promised, something david cameron never set and has been this debate about how pensioners have been shielded from cuts and of course the conservative party got into trouble with the last election with the so—called dementia tax and social care reform and means testing winter fuel payments and now this is

coming up. and most governments have shied away from means testing the licence fee because we wouldn't save a huge amount of money, but obviously at the bbc, like many institutions, they are looking to make savings. i think... to cast the debate as young against old is a mistake. because if you look at the stats, differences within generations are still more significant than the differences between them. so this idea that all pensioners are incredibly wealthy, it is true, pensioner poverty has fallen significantly, there are still poor pensioners affected by this. this cropped up last time when it was hinted on the front of the times that last night from memory, and it is the suggestion that now it is the bbc‘s decision because of various arrangements and agreements arrived at a while ago. sure, and that puts the bbc in a difficult position. the argument around

loneliness is an important one here. i agree that putting generations against each other is not the right way to go but it's almost indisputable that when it came to the cuts they were felt disproportionately by younger generations and people on welfare benefits or disability benefits. pensioners were overall protected. but that issue... i don't think the licensee is a supplement to human contact that we have had so many reports on over the summer that elderly people seem to be missing out on. so i think to use the licence fee in that way is misleading. this story is about the contact that older generations are able to have with people their own age and younger generations. and this isn't the obvious silver bullet. let's go inside the express. kate, take us there. mobiles are eating our mealtime chat. we are all very rude apparently according to a yougov report 55% of those survey it checked their phone during a meal and 53% said they would look at

their phone when going to a meal out of their home. and two in three people check their phones in debt despite the fact that there is quite a lot of evidence that issues with sleeping and having a rough night sleeping and having a rough night sleep can be connected to phone screens “— sleep can be connected to phone screens —— in bed. some of this has been blamed on the technology industries, apple and google have brought in methods through which to track the amount of time you spend on your phone, that doesn't stop how much people spend on their find out a shocked at how much time they spend on their phone. i think some of this actually has a positive spin. the fact that we are on our phones because we have google maps and things that make life easier is and things that make life easier is a very good thing. it has also led toa a very good thing. it has also led to a world in which you can check youre—mail. to a world in which you can check your e—mail. you can check your work. you can check everything at any moment in the day. and that pressure on people is growing. it is more of a cultural issue rather than a technological one. where do you stand? well, as ajournalist, i can't claim never to perhaps use my

phone when those with me would rather i hadn't. i think i phone when those with me would ratheri hadn't. i think! have phone when those with me would rather i hadn't. i think i have to admit that one as well i suspect. my positive view on this is actually now when i am eating with friends i feel the need, greater pressure to entertain them, because if i bought them and my conversation isn't interesting, they have a device to reach to talk to someone else, to read something else, so actually the hopeful outcome of this is that the art of conversation is elevated to new highs because competition leads to stronger outcomes. that is a very interesting and exciting angle on it. i like that a lot. i am struck by the idea that you might need your phone to check how often you are on your phone. i know, i know, you can use your phone to track everything from location to wear your friends are too how often you are on your phone, it is getting very meta and that's almost a relief, these healthy lifestyles coming in and technology helping to facilitate that through the fitbit it makes

people feel better, so to say you only spend five hours on your phone today makes people feel better than when they are spending ten hours. now, george, i need to ask you whether you use man—size tissues or not? no, actually, no. and soon no one will. there is a reason for that question i should point out on the front of the daily telegraph, anyway, go on. if we have a moratorium on man—size tissues or we have a moratorium on man flu. man is accused of man flu a lot. that is unfair, yes. gendered products? yes, the fact that the brand kleenex had to rebrand the man—size tissues to extra large tissues because of complaints that the tissues were sexist. and i have some sympathy for trying to move away from traditionally gendered products, but iam not traditionally gendered products, but i am not convinced that large tissues fit into this category and i think if you're offended by the phrase man—size you must go find

something more productive to be offended about. kate, on that note, time is up. thank you both. that's it for the papers tonight. don't forget, you can see the front pages of the papers online on 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. thank you and goodbye. hello, i'm sarah mulkerrins, with your sport from the bbc sport centre. the fulham owner shahid khan has withdrawn his offer to buy wembley stadium. the fa council were due to vote on the proposed £600 million deal next week, but khan, after a meeting of the council last week on the sale, says it's clear that his ownership would have proved too divisive. the fa board were keen on selling wembley, claiming it would have been

benficial for grassroots football, improving facilities across the country. it's been a mixed night for the two british clubs in the last 16 of the women's champions league. glasgow city were beaten 5—0 by barcelona, while last season's wsl winners chelsea will still have work to do in their second leg after a 1—0 win at home to the italian side fiorentina, asjoe lynskey reports. this is the last english team standing in the champions league, but chelsea are out to show they are still a force. they were beaten 5—0 at the weekend, while fiorenta came to london having just when the italian cup, but chelsea brought the moment and the early buildup forced a handball, penalty, and with 100 caps for england behind her, captain

karen carney is one for the pressure on situation. and then chelsea's chance for a big lead. instead they faced resistance mainly from fiorenta's goalkeeper, almost on her own stephanie ohrstrom cabinet high in the balance at 1—0 and chelsea go to florence in —— with work to do. the trip to barcelona brings the fear factor the trip to barcelona brings the fearfactor and for the trip to barcelona brings the fear factor and for glasgow this was david versus goliath. the spaniards have the stupar stars. kheira hamraoui came on the back of winning the champions league with lyon and she has the quality that gets noticed. glasgow's pass was best summed up by the third goal they conceded. for the bravery of their defensive blocks, barcelona just kept sending it back. in the end, the home team racked up a five goalie to date to scotland, second

leg that is now a dead rubber. it should be remembered that glasgow is still an amateur team and this was the night the continent's superpowers show they are up a level. england beat sri lanka in a rain—affected third one—day international in kandy by seven wickets. they now have a 2—0 series lead with two games left. the match was reduced to 21 overs per side after the six—hour delay. sri lanka slipped from 57 without loss to make 150—9, with adil rashid taking four for 36. captain eoin morgan hit 58 not out and jason roy 41 as england comfortably chased down the target with 15 balls remaining. the boys were just very eager to get out there. especially when it didn't feel like it was raining. itjust sort of drizzle behold they. to finally get some play and to get a full game of cricket in was nice ——

drizzle all day. and obviously get the win was a great feeling. the injuries are mounting for eddiejones and his england squad ahead of the autumn internationals — maku vunipola has been ruled out for about six weeks. the prop strained his calf in saracens' champions cup win over glasgow at the weekend. his brother billy is also sidelined after breaking his arm in the same match. england are also without chris robshaw, joe launchbury and sam simmonds, while nathan hughes faces the possibility of missing games through suspension. rugby league now and england warmed up for their three—test series against new zealand with a convincing 44 points to six win over france tonight. wakefield winger tom johnstone scored a 25—minute hat—trick on his debut as england raced to lead 38—0 by half time. coach wayne bennett had named eight debutants in his matchday squad. and that's your sport for now, good night.

good evening to you. well, we have seen good evening to you. well, we have seen the skies clear across the northern half of the uk and that is allowing temperatures to plummet quite with frost in the coldest spots. cloudy weather that has been with us across england and wales is fading away as this weather front pulls away, replaced by an area of high pressure. that's what's giving us high pressure. that's what's giving us the clearing skies. temperatures last time a look, cates bridge, northern ireland, one degree. to the end of the night we will have pockets of frost in northern ireland, scotland and maybe the north of england. still, for most, apart from it being cold, it will be apart from it being cold, it will be a glorious start on thursday. more cloud still across southern counties of england. patches of mist through the thames estuary and the downs. they should lift and we will see the cloud break up through the day. most of us will have bright or sunny spells. light showers possible for the western isles and northern isles. for most of us it is a dry day. temperatures between 12 and 16

degrees. to take us through thursday night, we will have clear conditions across england and way. here we will see the lowest temperatures in the countryside. north and west, ok, temperatures will begin to lift later in the night as the wind begins to strengthen ahead of this next weather system that's going to be targeting the north—west of the country. high pressure, though, still with us further south. so, some changes in the forecast for friday. we will see outbreaks of rain pushing into western scotland, where it will quite heavy, quite breezy conditions here. closer to high pressure in northern ireland. the rain doesn't get that have a full -- the rain doesn't get that have a full —— heavy, sinking southwards into the north of england and north wales. in the afternoon the weather will brighten for scotland and showers in the north—west. it will be dry with some sunny spells for the midlands, east anglia, southern england and south wales, top temperatures out 17 degrees. now the start of the week and looks like this, high pressure with us across england and wales, whether funded into the north—west, that's going to bring wet weather into scotland,

where it will be quite windy —— a weather front into the north—west. as the rain clears through the skies brighten and then the burn effect could improve temperatures to 18 degrees or so so it will be a warm day. further south for england and wales were start with mist and fog patches, some of those could be quite dense but they will clear with some sunshine coming out later in the day. temperatures still on the mild side, highs of up to 17 degrees, and we've got similar weather on the way for sunday. so for most of us a lot of dry weather over the next few days but an increasing risk of seeing some fog into the weekend. that's your weather. welcome to newsday. i'm sharanjit leyl in singapore, the headlines: president trump denies he's covering up for saudi arabia and says he wants answers over the disappearance of jamal khashoggi. i want to find out what happened, where is the fault, and we will probably know that by the end of the week. crimea declares three
