mike's riding the wave of women's basketball success with a little help from his friends. after a great start to the weekend, things are and start to turn much, much brighter, with lots of sunshine developing, but next week it does turn colder. all of the details here on breakfast. good morning. it's saturday the 17th november. our top story: the number of people missing in california's wildfires has now risen to more than 1,000. 71 people are known to have died. president trump will visit the state later today. 0ur correspondent dave lee has sent this report from what is now the devastated town of paradise. this is the first step in a very long process. a crew of firefighters lifts away large debris and makes sure the area is safe. soon, a second team of cadaver dogs will sweep the area. if they find remains, the coroner's office will arrive. it takes time, even with the more
8:02 am
than 400 specialists now on the ground in paradise, the town worst hit by this fire. progress seems to be going backwards. each day we hear about several confirmed deaths, but with it comes news that there are a growing number still unaccounted for. as of tonight, the list that we will be releasing, the current list of unaccounted for individuals stands at 1,011, which is an increase from yesterday of 380. the majority of those on that unaccounted for list are in their 70s, 80s and 905. some of them may have lived in a place like this, this mobile home park used to be known as the enchanted forest, but is now one of the focus of the enormous search operation. the impact from these fires is being felt across the state of california, more than 100 miles
8:03 am
away in san francisco, schools and businesses were closed down due to terrible air quality, currently measured as being the worst anywhere in the world. on saturday, it's expected that president trump will pay a visit to teams fighting these fires and maybe meet some of those who have been evacuated. a community determined to get back on its feet. i think we will come back bigger and better. right now they've got paradise strong, ridge strong and that is what we are. and i know there is a lot of people ready to come back, let's get this done. let's make paradise again. dave lee, bbc news, in paradise. after a turbulant week, theresa may continues to try and sell her brexit deal to her party grassroots and the wider public. her position was bolstered yesterday with the resturn to the front bench of amber rudd as work and pensions secretary, and the appointment of a new — if lesser known — brexit secretary, stephen barclay. the bbc understands that five
8:04 am
of the prime minister's leave—supporting cabinet ministers are considering pressing for changes to the deal which they think are "winnable and supportable." mrs may continues to insist her plan, agreed with eu negotiators, will deliver a brexit that works in the national interest. let's speak to our political correspondent, susana mendonca, who's in westminster for us this morning. i would like to say and i am sure you would as well, this is the calm before the storm, but i don't think that would quite be accurate. i think it is a little bit of comedy for another storm, perhaps. certainly the good news for theresa may is she hasn't had any resignations in the last couple of days but we are now hearing that five members of the cabinet, that includes michael gove, penny morden, andrea leadsom and others are talking about potentially changing the deal. now, of course, the eu has said it is not in the market for changing the deal, too difficult to see how bad would happen, but
8:05 am
potentially if they don't get to change the deal, who knows, they could be heading for the exit door as well. all the while, theresa may has also got the potential of a no—confidence vote looming. we understand that there are those who are still thinking about putting in letters to the backbench committee of conservative mps which would decide that, for all of that is going on, even if she manages to see all of that off, she then needs to get her deal passed parliament here, thatis get her deal passed parliament here, that is going to be the real challenge for her, because there's not much of an appetite for it, for remainers and four brexiteers. good to see you. thank you very much. one of britain's biggest newspaper groups, johnston press, is going into administration. the company prints more than 200 local and regional titles, including the scotsman and the yorkshire post, as well as the i. it's blamed changes to the way facebook and google display stories, which has led to a fall in advertising. the move into administration is part of a rescue plan to keep the papers in circulation.
8:06 am
after weeks of accusations and counter—claims, the us media is reporting that the cia has concluded that saudi crown prince, mohammed bin salman, ordered the murder of journalist jamal khashoggi. mr khashoggi was killed in the saudi consulate in istanbul last month. his body has not been found. saudi arabia has called the claim false. the argentine navy says it has found the wreckage of a submarine that disappeared a year ago with 44 crewman on board. the vessel was found by a drone on the seabed, at a depth of 800 metres. it was last heard from in november last year, when it reported an electrical fault in the south atlantic ocean. hm revenue and customs is warning that university students are being bombarded with fake tax refund emails, in a bid to steal their banking and personal details. thousands of reports have been received in the past few weeks. fraudsters are using email addresses that appear to be from a genuine university. officials say emails, texts or voicemails would never be used to inform a customer of a refund. the bbc‘s annual children in need appeal has
8:07 am
raised a record amount, of more than £50 million, taking it past the one billion pound mark since it first started, almost 40—years ago. 0ur entertainment correspondent lizo mzimba looks back on last night. go on, rob! cue the totaliser! cheering the night's record—breaking total. # i stay up till late got nothing in my brain...# the evening kicked off with a performance from west end musical, school of rock. the cast of eastenders took part in a walford walt disney song and dance extravaganza.
8:08 am
while boy band boyzone competed for the children in need stricly glitter ball trophy. welcome to the tardis! this is amazing. a doctor who superfan got to visit the tardis. and workers from children in need projects who thought they were making a music video, got to duet with some of their favourite stars. celebrities also went to visit some of the places where the money raised by everyone watching ends up being spent. it was a night of historic fundraising to help disadvantaged children across the uk. lizo mzimba, bbc news. we got involved. albeit briefly. it
8:09 am
was good but it was kept to a moment. you go. #no moment. you go. # no business like show business like no business i know # everything about it is appealing # everything about it is appealing # nothing else gives you that happy feeling. # it all in the timing, isn't it? we didn't have much to get right, but even that little bit. but thatis right, but even that little bit. but that is not the point. it is one of those occasions where everyone gets super enthusiastic. it was a great atmosphere. a fabulous atmosphere. you looked good in the hat, the top hat. it was interesting. it is ten minutes past eight. it was a nice way to round off a rather tumultuous week. we have been talking a lot about what has been happening with brexit, trying to figure out what's going to happen next. it has dominated the headlines. let's see if we can make some sense
8:10 am
of the last few days in british politics, and work out what might happen next. as brexit dominates the headlines, let's talk to andrew pierce from the daily mail and kevin maguire from the daily mirror. i want to ask both your thoughts on the 48 letters. this one is hanging out there. can you give us an idea of what is going on? nobody really knows because the one person who has the letters, sir graham brady, the chairman of the 1922 committee, he is infuriatingly discreet. he doesn't even tell his wife how many signatures he's got, and there is a feeling that maybe the people who are trying to depose theresa may have overplayed their hand and gone too soon because there were certainly 48 letters on friday. will they be there on monday? possibly, but it doesn't seem like overwhelming evidence for a coup against the prime minister. overwhelming evidence for a coup against the prime ministerlj overwhelming evidence for a coup against the prime minister. i would have thought that the letters will go in and they will get their 15%
8:11 am
eventually, but the fact that it is taking a few days shows that they are not as strong, that group, the jacob rees—mogg mogg group, they are not as strong as they think, and they are in an already, and they might have actually thrown theresa may a lifeline because if they move that confidence vote and she wins it, they can't formally challenge her for it, they can't formally challenge herfora it, they can't formally challenge her for a year. she it, they can't formally challenge herfora year. she is it, they can't formally challenge her for a year. she is still going to struggle and i can see how she will get brexit plan, which is quite a mess, through parliament, so she could be defeated in their open the road by mps rejecting a plan that really should see her out of the door, and yet the tory party in westminster, those mps will have a confidence vote against and launch a leadership challenge, at not formally, so what a mess. i think it is very bad timing byjacob rees—mogg and the old double—breasted rebel has been found out. just a thought. if nothing else, you are right about the clarity, and a lot of people are very frustrated and angry watching
8:12 am
what is going on, but one thing that seems to emerge as some degree of respect for theresa may for her dogged determination. do you go along with that? ijust wanted kevin to go at first. i can see why some people think that, but kelly clarkson was wrong when she said what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. the prime minister is getting a lot weaker as with you think of her as an individual, there are people'sjobs think of her as an individual, there are people's jobs and think of her as an individual, there are people'sjobs and security think of her as an individual, there are people's jobs and security and the livelihood of the country at sta ke the livelihood of the country at stake and that mess that he has negotiated with the 27 other countries, having to give a lot of what she didn't believe in, will leave people poorer, britain less secure, leave people poorer, britain less secure , you leave people poorer, britain less secure, you will be following laws instead of making them, so i can see why pro—europeans and remainers and levers and brexiteers are attacking her, so you can say, isn't she great standing up there, but to some extent it is the old ostrich head in the sand acts from her. i'm not sure she really knows what's going on. the sand acts from her. i'm not sure she really knows what's going onlj think even her critics admire her
8:13 am
tenacity, resolution, and the fact that she is still standing. most people would have been flattened by what she is put up with in the past week. she did that the the commons, a press conference, something with the royalfamily, a press conference, something with the royal family, and a press conference, something with the royalfamily, and then an interview. she has had a very bad start the week but i think she has ended it in a stronger place and she will be quietly confident, i think, in her constituency this weekend. those 48 rebels, they may get the line, but she is in a stronger place than when she lost two cabinet ministers because with that there would be more people resigning. michael gove, the high priest, if you like, of brexiteers in the cabinet, staying in the cabinet has thrown her an important lifeline. stronger place? she now has a cabinet with any cabinet as five brexit ministers are going to plot against and an enemy within. that is the story that is going round at the moment so we need you to explain a little bit about that, and on what evidence are you basing that? just to explain to people, the story is that within her cabinet now there is
8:14 am
a group of five who are plotting within the cabinet to get her to start renegotiating, which she says she can't do. on what are you basing that? it is not plotting because actually it was stated in the cabinet meeting this week. andrea leadsom, the leader of the commons, before this idea that they could continue to try to negotiate to get a different way forward with this deal and she has been backed by the arch brexiteers, chris grayling, liam fox, michael gove, and the international aids secretary, penny morden. and actually i think it is quite good that they are working with. the uncomfortable truth is that the eu have said categorically there is no more negotiation. negotiations aren't over until they're over, charlie, and she has still got time. the fact is if they can geta still got time. the fact is if they can get a better deal than it is going to be more likely to be got through parliament. the position cheating at the moment, i think she's going to struggle to get that brexit deal through parliament. his
8:15 am
lot are going to support it because they will be shamelessly opportunistic and do everything they can to wreck the deal to get a general election. can i does but i wa nt general election. can i does but i want you, kevin. does that last dot on the labour party. how is it that given what has been going on people are not clamouring, and i am not making a judgment on this, to suggesting that doesn't appear to be huge school of thought thinking let's bring someone else in. clearly, labour supporters would be saying that, but you might imagine that given what is going on, you would be thinking, anything but this. i think you can see support growing for a second referendum and you have big demonstrations now. jeremy corbyn doesn't support that. no, he doesn't, but people would like a fresh choice on what has happened rather than the lies of la st happened rather than the lies of last time. they have four people for a hard brexit. to answer your question, we know that there is a cabinet within the cabinet and to my knowledge two of those five have briefed and said that they will try
8:16 am
to get the policy change. i don't think it will work but they are there now, warming away in the cabinet, so if that makes it or stronger... element they are not warming away. there is nothing underhand about this. michael gove said he had a long meeting with the prime minister and he said that he did not like the deal as it was that he will continue to try to get a better one. that is a good thing, i think. he said it was rubbish. i don't like the deal, but we want to deal because we are leaving the eu. liam fox now says a deal is better than no deal. completely changed. it is utter chaos. gentlemen, this is where we say goodbye to you. thank you so much. saturday morning. enjoy the rest of your day. interesting, isn't it? they talk to each other a lot, those two, but they are reflecting to very real viewpoint on what is happening right now. it is worth saying, we are talking to people who are pretty closely
8:17 am
associated. talking a great deal about those letters that could force about those letters that could force a leadership contest within the conservative party. we will talk to those people later. it is getting chilly. it didn't look too bad down there with andrew down there in westminster, but it is chilly. it is getting colder, isn't it? yes, you will notice it even more into next week. today and into next weekend as is the case of getting better as thorough sunshine is concerned. it isa thorough sunshine is concerned. it is a bit grey and drizzly out there, but more sunshine will develop, not by today, but certainly by tomorrow. most will be under sunny skies and then that cold you will comment. sunny conditions which will push northwards. northern ireland will stay a little bit cloudy throughout.
8:18 am
and if you take a closer look into the details there for the afternoon, there will certainly still be a little bit of cloud across part of cornwall and the isles of scilly, but for england and wales, it will be blue skies foremost to end the day. on the eastern side of snowdonia and those in the eastern side of the peak district and the pennines, we will still have some cloud here and also to the southern and eastern parts of the grampians, 0rkney, shetland, it could be grey. 9-10dc. most 0rkney, shetland, it could be grey. 9—10dc. most around 10—13dc. blue skies throughout the day for the highlands, could get up to around 14 celsius for this afternoon. into tonight, with the clear skies, it will be a chilly night than we have been used to over the past few nights. notice these frosty blues. we have the green collars on our title mostly above freezing. 0ne we have the green collars on our title mostly above freezing. one or two spots close enough to frost levels to start tomorrow. in net of frost here and there to start your sunday morning. still some cloud around shetland and maybe in two
8:19 am
parts of eastern scotland, but the vast majority will have a day of sunny skies from dawn till dusk. the breeze will be picking up. temperatures 10—13dc. still a notch above where we should be for this time of year. that would laugh because by sunday night into monday the colder air will comment on an even stronger easterly wind. the return of grey skies on monday. mostly dry. the best of the sunshine will be in the west. we could start to see the odd shower. if you see it, temperatures will be in single figures. by the time we get to tuesday with more showers across england and wales, over the hills, do not be surprised to see some fla kes do not be surprised to see some flakes of wet snow mixed in with the showers and the wind will be especially strong, making the chill known to all. 6—7dc and with the effect of that wind chill it will feel more like 1—2dc. so it is set
8:20 am
to turn much colder after what will bea to turn much colder after what will be a sunny weekend. have you been employing your artistic talents? well, charlie challenged me. and earlier we saw charlie's micky mouse masterpiece. matt, you've just sent us your creation, let's take a look. that's good. i had to up my game for you. did you really do that? ifind it. hidden talent. i believe it. i believe it. i think you are a little bit affronted because someone has shown up your attempt from earlier on. it is very, very good. thank you. you're watching breakfast from bbc news. time now for a look at the newspapers. guardian film critic peter bradshaw is here to tell us what's caught his eye. we were talking about mickey mouse.
8:21 am
90 years old. is it only 90? you are a film critic. a critic once said that you could split critics into two groups, those who like mickey mouse, those who like bugs bunny. bugs bunny is like a wild man with a raging carrot addiction. i have two settle with him. of course you do. so you will take us through some of the things. what a week. i am having an anxiety attack, really. out, i hope not. brexit has caused the most extraordinary split i think in my lifetime. the mail, which has been the most eurosceptic paper has done so much to dry brexit, and now the
8:22 am
editor has resigned and we have this soft, soft, soft approach. it is, let's be nice to mrs may. all the other papers flirt with the idea of whatever our politics, should we be nice to mrs may? more of them say no, such as the guardian and the telegraph, no, we're not being sympathetic to theresa may. but it is remarkable, that spread and the front page and the prominence given to fill up as a kind of quasi denis thatcher figure, to fill up as a kind of quasi denis thatcherfigure, soothing her woes after a ha rd thatcherfigure, soothing her woes after a hard day dealing with the fractures devos in cabinet. one of the things that the daily mail has a lwa ys the things that the daily mail has always done very well is tapping into a sense of what people are thinking. i guess what people are thinking. i guess what people are thinking is that wherever you said, you have got to admire. thinking is that wherever you said, you have got to admirelj thinking is that wherever you said, you have got to admire. i think people do think that. most of fleet street, as i call it, has decided not to think that, with the
8:23 am
fascinating exception of the daily mail. it has revived the old signifiers of margaret thatcher. kicking off your heels, having a glass of whisky. those are the signifiers from the margaret thatcher era and they have revived them and repurposed them for a much more gentle kind of centrist view. whereas if you turn to the telegraph, they are absolutely sabre—tooth to. telegraph, they are absolutely sabre-tooth to. do you think... you referred to margaret thatcher and similar pieces been done. he remembered pieces like this being done about david brown, —— gordon brown, david cameron? ella might know. nobody was pathetic to those people in the same kind of way. interestingly, bob of the papers to trot that out, he would have thought it would have been the daily mail? here in the telegraph, very different. not unsympathetic or boorish. and interestingly, you can see the telegraph has a little spread about how tory backbenchers a lwa ys spread about how tory backbenchers always undermine their leaders, from john major through to iain duncan smith. it is quite an interesting
8:24 am
contextual peace. but much more different, really. it is all about the gang of five, michael gove's gang of five, and they are the heroes of this. the backbench euro is driving through a harder brexit, ably negotiated brexit. and the telegraph, famously the employer of borisjohnson for so telegraph, famously the employer of boris johnson for so long, telegraph, famously the employer of borisjohnson for so long, they have now emerged as the kind of mr hyde brexit. and so this story in the guardian. yes, the austerity story. in any othertime, guardian. yes, the austerity story. in any other time, this would be all over the papers. the guardian has put it on the front page that the un's reporter, who is an australian human rights lawyer, who has a record on extreme poverty, has visited britain and found that one fifth of the country is effectively living in destitution, and not merely that. he says that the middle
8:25 am
classes would find themselves living in an increasingly hostile and unwelcome society because community routes are being broken. 0f unwelcome society because community routes are being broken. of course, this report has been attacked. the daily mail has reportedly been attacked, what is tucked away, this story. but what i find extraordinary is how many in the government classes in this country don't believe it. in the heart of hearts, they think that all these people are just whingers, skivers, shirkers and scammers, and they don't believe it. you want to say to them, how on earth do you thinkjeremy corbyn has got as far as he has if this isn't right? i should say that the spokesperson by the dwp has said that they completely disagree. household income has never been higher, income inequality has fallen. there are1 million higher, income inequality has fallen. there are 1 million fewer people living in absolute poverty compared with 2010. yes, that seems to be opposite to what this un person has said. i alluded to have the papers cover a prime minister. john humphrys, our colleague, has
8:26 am
taken a look, and on first glance, i haven't read the whole article, on first glance, i don't know if i disagree with him in this sense. the french tock, the now fashionable french tock, the now fashionable french tock. what is going on? well, there are different sorts of french tock. i don't know why it it is called a french tock. a fridge that can be where you tuck in the front of your shirt but leave the back of it on tax. that is for gentlemen. 0r you can do it asymmetrically, as meghan markle is doing it there and haveit meghan markle is doing it there and have it on top tapas i don'tjohn humphrys is furious about that. he thinks that this just looks ridiculous. but it is more than that. it is about double standards in some ways because if a woman does it, it is hailed as being very stylish and ava nt—garde. it, it is hailed as being very stylish and avant—garde. but if a man does that, it is simply scruffy. yes. i'm not sure. ithink
8:27 am
personally if you're going to on top, you have to do it all the way around. but i think you can't untuck if you're wearing a jacket because it looks so full. if you're wearing a jacket, then you cant untuck. it looks so full. if you're wearing a jacket, then you cant untuckm just looks terrible, i think. he used to be furious about the historic present. now he is furious about that. do know what bothers me about that. do know what bothers me about men's fashion? many people don't wear belts on the trousers. if i see don't wear belts on the trousers. if iseea don't wear belts on the trousers. if i see a man not wearing a belt on their trouser. what if a woman does that? i have never given it any thought. whenever i try to do it untucked, i always my mum is going to appearand untucked, i always my mum is going to appear and kidney to clip around the ears. they have spoken to a grooming expert and they have said that the problem with the french
8:28 am
tock is you have to be careful because you have to make sure it is good because otherwise people will think that you have been to the toilet and forgotten to top the back of your trousers in afterwards. that is what they are going to think anyway. we will come back with another selection. very eclectic. i enjoyed that. stay with us, headlines coming up. 0ur small island continues to reveal an epic history. hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. coming up before nine, we'll get the weather from matt. but first a summary of this morning's main news. the number of people missing in california's devastating wildfires has now risen to more than a thousand. 71 people are known to have died. president trump will visit the state later today. officials say they don't expect to fully contain the blaze

8:33 am
i would suggest you do not be wanting to take those catches because you are there for life! this is as good as you will ever see. just watched the way that he moves. that is genius at short leg. how saw your fingers after catching up all like that? because you're so close. you can break a bone? you can. but you're catching balls every day and you're catching balls every day and you get used to it. that piece of skill but we've just seen, they practice that, it is not something
8:34 am
that just happens. paul practice that, it is not something thatjust happens. paul farbrace is the wicket keeping coach and he would do a drill like that on a regular basis. you just have to get on with it. when you either batsman in that circumstance and a fielder is so close to you and you are thinking the shot you want to play is going to go straight at them. with that hold you back, is there a pa rt with that hold you back, is there a part of you going...? with that hold you back, is there a part of you going. . . ? if you have the orders around the bat, the bowling side is under pressure and the best way to get rid of them is to hit it. you are taught by other fielders around the bat you have to try to hit it hard past them. because when they are there they are a threat to your wicket. 0f because when they are there they are a threat to your wicket. of course you do not want to hurt them, only if they are australian! 159-4, sri
8:35 am
la nka if they are australian! 159-4, sri lanka at the moment. they need 301 two prevent england from winning. which way do you think it is going to go? you would still rather have the runs on the board. matthews is a wonderful player. he got 100 fortune anchorin wonderful player. he got 100 fortune anchor in our last situation. but you would rather have the runs on the board. i thought we were not doing so well, there was a lot of criticism about england. joe root brought it back. joe root played as good an innings against a spinning ball that i have ever seen. just ta ke ball that i have ever seen. just take a look at the way he played
8:36 am
yesterday if any young people want to be as been cricketer. a tremendous innings. is this a shift in attitude then towards the england team? they have a huge amount of talent. the test team have been inconsistent, especially when they are travelling. but there is a lot of talent, just not the consistency. thank you for coming by. i'm a bit scruffy, i did not know i was coming on! thank you so much. wales missed out on promotion from their nations league group after losing 2—1 to denmark in cardiff. gareth bale was back for wales but they missed chances and were punished when denmark scored before the break. and they went further clear late on when martin braithwaite smashed in a second.
8:37 am
bale got one back but it was too little, too late. ido i do not like losing but parts of the game i really enjoyed against a really good team, an experienced team. disciplined, efficient. and we saw that in those games. quality wise there is not a lot to choose from but that team has been together a long time and we will learn from these games seems like denmark you can learn a lot how they play. they just get thejob can learn a lot how they play. they just get the job done. so it is the international break and that means a rather extraordinary football focus? we never sleep! international football focus today. i feel a little bit overdressed now after michael! he is working! they had
8:38 am
beenin michael! he is working! they had been in since the crap of dawn. the closest he could get to a dressing gown and slippers! those catches from keatonjennings were remarkable. i've written down all the things we have on today. international foot home, we will be speaking to james mcfadden of scotla nd speaking to james mcfadden of scotland about their game against albania. and we have an interview with two young men who have chosen to play for oil in germany this season. a young englishman is one of them, james sancho, and to trust your dortmund and has been named player of the month in the bundesliga. this is a new generation of young englishman not choosing to play here. he is 18. playing in the bundesliga. it is a bold decision
8:39 am
and a lot of the former generation might be saying they've regret not doing that. but he has taken that opportunity to play first team football. this is what he said. i just felt i was ready for the next step and borussia dortmund i thought was a great club to develop my career. i hope i have open people's eyes to see what i'm doing well and hopefully be a role model to the younger generation coming through. my team behind me are really supportive and they wanted the best for me. coming out in germany to express myself as the best thing i have ever done. also we have cloudier ranieri on the show. the premier league is kind of sleeping this weekend but fulham have appointed a new manager. and this press co nfe re nce appointed a new manager. and this press conference included every
8:40 am
possible quote you could think of from ranieri! then we have the manager of mk dons and we also look at the e—premier league which will be the future in about five years' timei be the future in about five years' time i think as many people will be watching people playing computer games as well matches. you are killing me! charlie is all over it! i know a bit about it, i'm familiar with the product. mike reported on it and 80,000 people watched the final. and they say it could be an 0lympic final. and they say it could be an olympic sport in the future, e—sports. olympic sport in the future, e-sports. that is 12 o'clock on bbc

0ne. try before you buy and pay nothing for 30 days. it's an attractive offer increasingly used by some of the biggest online retailers. but experts are worried it's tempting young people into debt. let's get more from paul lewis of radio 4's money box programme. we have spoken about the concern for about people getting into debt and especially how much people are taught about what they're getting into. what is this new scheme? taught about what they're getting into. what is this new scheme7m taught about what they're getting into. what is this new scheme? it is interesting, if you go online to buy things you have a period when you can send them back anyway, that is the law. but this is something where you do not even pay for them when you do not even pay for them when you buy them but only pay in 30 days. and then only pay for those you have not sent back. so it gives you have not sent back. so it gives you this period of up to 30 days
8:42 am
credit and there is no charge for that. the idea is that it boosts retailing and retailers say it does that. it is ok if you manage it well but if you do not it can be very difficult. take us through the dangers. 0bviously difficult. take us through the dangers. obviously if you do not have the money there is immediately a problem. when you buy something immediately on your debit card you know how much you have in your bank account but you may not know how much you will have in 30 days. you buy five items and think i willjust keep one so i'm only spending really £40 instead of 200 pounds. but then you might decide to keep two are three of them, missed the deadline for sending the back and suddenly you have this amount coming out of your account. maybe you're not expecting them. it is all fun under the old £200. there is no charge in
8:43 am
the old £200. there is no charge in the first 30 days and if you miss the first 30 days and if you miss the payment deadline you have another 120 days. no charge then either though many reminders but at the end of that period you will be referred to a debt collection agency and then you start to rack up those charges and your credit record will be damaged. so if you manage it, ok but if you do not get can be disastrous. what other company behind it saying? they say they do not want people who do not pay their bills and when you miss a deadline you are never allowed back for example. so they do things right from their point of view and say that they are there to boost retail sales and help retailers get a bigger turnover and manage that period between people ordering stuff and sending half of it back. they say that they do things well but ultimately of course debt, and have
8:44 am
to be brought in. what are your words of wisdom on this? like any debt, manage it well and do not get into the habit of paying later. this is no cost if you manage well but a credit card is more expensive. a payday loan is more expensive. do not get into the habit of debt, even 30 days. you should be careful about this and be aware of what you doing. 0ne this and be aware of what you doing. one person i thought today said that they keep a diary of when payments are due. that is fine but most people are not that organised. thank you. more from paul and money box on radio 4 at midday today. here's matt with a look at this morning's weather. 0ur resident cartoonist. charlie is furious! i admired the work. we
8:45 am
challenged matt to draw an image of mickey mouse for the 90th birthday. here it is again. do we have your drawing, charlie? good morning. quite foggy in some places this morning with some drizzle as well. but a lot of sunshine to come even later today and certainly into tomorrow. but something coulter on the horizon. clear skies just something coulter on the horizon. clear skiesjust edging something coulter on the horizon. clear skies just edging into the far south east and they will work their way north and west during the day. we still have some clout across parts of northern ireland into the afternoon. and looking at the detail in the afternoon, barely any clout
8:46 am
on the charts in some places. northern ireland as well as south eastern areas of the grampians have some cloud, but for most the sunshine will be out this afternoon. into tonight 's most of us have clear skies and a great night to view those meteor showers if you're lucky enough to see them. but it will be chilly if you're heading out with temperatures dropping back into single figures. in some waking up tomorrow to some frost. but for many it will be a great day with sunshine from dawn to dusk. temperatures
8:47 am
still in double figures at this stage. they will be heading down because of this cold air across continental europe which works towards us next week. some breaks in the cloud but always the chance of some showers turning up in eastern areas of england in particular. and temperatures not getting out of single figures for many. then into tuesday the greater chance of some showers for england and wales in killer. and we could have some snow mixed into those showers in places. that is how that return to the colder air comes about but at least this weekend we have some sunshine
8:48 am
around. that is how cold it would feel in the studio comparing your drawing to charlie! how old do you think mickey mouse is? he turns 90 tomorrow. we took a look at the history. the world's most famous mouse. whistling through his debut film, steamboat willie, in 1928. i only hope that we don't lose sight of one thing. that it was all started by a mouse. mickey mouse was first created
8:49 am
and drawn by walt disney himself. mickey went on to appear over 130 films. his distinctive appearance often changing with the times. they were cartoons that forever changed the entertainment landscape. some silent film comedians, when animation started to be popular, said things like, like charlie chaplin said how can we even compete? they don't even have to stop to take a breath. and they don't! you know, an animation character can literally do anything that you can make physically believable. and i think mickey is the embodiment of that. the first mickey mouse comic strips were published in the early 1930s and they were drawn at this desk by the legendary animator floyd gottfredson. this is one of his original pens and there is certainly a lot of history here. mickey mouse is far from history, at 90 he is still alive and well on the screen and at disney theme parks around the world. mickey is real. there is only one mickey. mickey is the easiest guy to work with, i am glad he is my boss. it takes you back to watching cartoons on saturday mornings and mickey mouse was the cartoon. mickey mouse has evolved over
8:50 am
the years, he is still that classic character that brings happy memories. for a company built on the image and fortunes of a mouse, the cartoon character is an invaluable asset. mickey is a mouse of many talents, he is the comedy mascot and here at disneyland he has taken part in countless parades and ceremonies over the past 60 plus years, but one of his main jobs is to pose for photographs, isn't it? let's do it. good job. you are not looking your age. you are looking pretty good. the timeless allure of mickey mouse. peter bowes, bbc news, los angeles. we have been thinking back to the cartoons we love. top cat was
8:51 am
fantastic. yogi bear. top cat started in 1961. roberts says my favourite cartoon was raggy does. jim said his favourite character is pluto the dog. bought 14 years ago from disney world in florida. another saying they have been to disneyland and mickey mouse was the star. keep those thoughts coming in. they don't call nashville the country music capital of the world for nothing. one of its biggest stars right now is thomas rhett, who plays at london's hammersmith apollo tonight. he's just won best video
8:52 am
at the country music awards, let's take a look. # i remember the night when i almost kissed her. #we kissed her. # we have been friends for forever. # we have been friends for forever. # i always wondered if she felt the same way. using aggro when i got the invite i knew it was two ways. # and invite i knew it was two ways. #andl invite i knew it was two ways. # and i know your daddy has been dreading this day. # giving her away. # giving her away. # i will wear my black suit, black tie. # i will try to make it through
8:53 am
without crying. thomas rhett, welcome to breakfast. we were just speaking about disney. we were just speaking about disney. we did it for the first time last year without kids. how old are they? three years old and one—year—old. did they not get a bit intimidated, i always think if you see a huge mickey mouse. well we went through to meet all my favourite princesses
8:54 am
we had to tell her it was ok but she had a wall. your children sometimes come on stage with you and they feature in europe video. we adopted our oldest daughterfrom feature in europe video. we adopted our oldest daughter from uganda and my wife got pregnant in uganda so we had two babies in four months. we toured with them, they love to come onstage and take the microphone and not give it back! did she sing? she mostly dances but hopefully she has a voice. you are at the london apollo tonight. he flew in last night, how are you feeling?‘ apollo tonight. he flew in last night, how are you feeling? a bit jet—lagged! we will be all right. i'm so excited to play at hammersmith. we have played a country festival at the 02 and shepherd's bush. tonight should be great. what is it about country music that is so healing now because we spoke to kylie minogue some time
8:55 am
ago and she has been dipping into country music with her latest album the puppet shows hotpot and it is becoming. i think country music is just based on a true, real story. i grew up listening to it all my life and i'm just trying to write my life ina song. and i'm just trying to write my life in a song. i think that is what country music is about. there is a fine tradition in country music that it comes from the heart. some people can find it almost a bit corny. but it is what it is, often extremely personal. very personal, just a real story, it brings out that real emotion. life is good at the moment? it is. wejust
8:56 am
emotion. life is good at the moment? it is. we just saw your little girl onstage. and your wife as well. and one of the songs he wrote about meeting her and how you felt, you married quite young and how people thought about that. how does she feel about all your life being put out there? we have known each other since second—grade so eight years old. so we dated a bit in high school and then broke up and got back together at 22 and got married. ido back together at 22 and got married. i do not think that she ever dream that we would live this kind of life travelling across the world and all this kind of stuff. my wife is the most amazing person and the fans have taken a liking to us and the family. especially on the road people want to say hello to my wife.
8:57 am
pretty hilarious. how do you make the distinction between private life, because obviously you want to protect the kids and your wife. how do you make that distinction between this is now behind closed doors? my wife and i are pretty much an open book, we have always put our lives out there so the fans can get to know us on a real level. when we had kids we had that conversation, how much we put out there and how much we do not. they are just too cute! look at that. that was in colorado before the show. every time we go we like to get out and see what the town is about. so it is not bad rock and roll, country star lifestyle that perhaps many would envisage. it is changing nappies! before the show two years ago it was a lot different, just hanging with the
8:58 am
band and now it is changing and nappy, reading a book, going on stage. that has been a challenge but it has been amazing. so now you're going straight down to london. it has been amazing. so now you're going straight down to londonlj might have a nap. i woke up at three o'clock this morning. thank you for coming on. stay with us, headlines coming up. good morning. welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. 0ur headlines today:
