so the attention now turns to manchester city. a win today against crystal palace will reduce that gap tojust a point. manchester united take on cardiff this evening as ole gunnar solskjaer starts his era as interim manager. midfielder ashley young has been speaking to former united strike dion dublin. why do you think it is not clipped? there is much talent. it is about the confidence. the talent in the squad is unbelievable. you need to have that discipline and character and heart and desire and willing mentality. when you work at a club like theirs, that comes in abundance. for me, even being at my age, i am a winner. a lot of people will tell you when i come out of the training pitch, ifi have lost, it hurts. it is like i am not a nice person to be around when i lose. here are the rest of the day's fixtures. arsenal taking on a struggling burnley. there's a big night of uk boxing tonight with the english heavyweights dillian whyte and dereck chisora clashing at the 02, and at the same time, also on pay—per—view but in manchester,

josh warrington will fight carl frampton for the ibf featherweight title. both fights are expected to be very close and the clash of timings has irritated many boxing fans and in particular the warrington—frampton promoter frank warren. it is disrespectful to the sport and disrespectful to the fans. it is the time of year when people maybe can't afford to pay for two events. it is ridiculous. there is no sense to it. i have no problem with competition, but it is stupid competition. you will not put on man city and man united, playing 3pm, saturday, on the same day. it does not happen, in the same town. they split the teams up to make it work to make sure you have a maximum audience. you need a maximum audience for your sport because he want to grow your sport. every christmas, the world's top show—jumpers travel to the centre of london for the olympia international horse show.

it's a week long event and this afternoon is the one they all want to win — the world cup qualifier. britain's ben maher is one of the big names competing, not only for the huge prize money but also for the points which count towards a place in the world cup final next year. the olympic gold medallist in 2012 has had a great year and a win at olympia would be a nice christmas present. you can follow the action on bbc two. in cricket it is big bash in australia. it was a tight match but this stunning catch from daniel hughes to remove william with the stalk. just when the score jurors we re stalk. just when the score jurors were looking to stamp their authority on the match. england played for the sixers will struggle to make an impact on the match. that

is it from me for now. it is still goalless between arsenal and burnley. it is looking like quite a game. now it is time for a quick. it's the 2018 clickmas special, the gang is all here. hello! welcome, welcome. spence, i've got your first christmas present and what a corker it is. this is the world's first flexible phone. look at that!

you can have it on this way or around here and itjust flips, it knows which way you are holding it and it's built on android. this is a brand—new operating system on top of it called water and it's built by a small chinese form called royale, you might not have heard of it. it is the first phone they're released. there you go. the idea is you have a tablet you can use or you can fold it into a phone. you can work as on a tablet or fold it back to a phone. when can we get this? it's a good question. if you're in china, in the shops from 2019 to start off. online, obviously. just order from a chinese shop and you can get one delivered to your door, but as far as europe and america and other parts of the world, probably 2020 when they get some of the regulations in place for those markets. wow, give it a bend again. look at that, beat that.

very nice, but i was a bit worried that it wouldn't fit in your pocket 'cause your pockets don't look that big so i've got you the world's smallest smartphone. oh, my goodness — it's so diddy. this is made by palm, better known back in the 1990s, but have a play with it, it's cute. it will go into my pocket. my goodness, it's so cute. you think that's a small phone, spenc, merry christmas. oh, my word. what, no. it's a tiny, tiny telephone. this is the zanco tiny t1, a 2g phone, the world's smallest phone, no internet, you can do some text messaging and calls. want some stats? yes, please. 50 text messages you can store on there, 300 contacts. my goodness, it's like the ‘90s but really, really tiny. hello?

it's the police for you, dan. apparently you've gotten yourself into some hot water. ted! what's going on? dan, you are enjoying my hot tub? nice feature. i don't think that's standard, that one. i think it's been hacked. what do you mean? this hot tub is on the internet like thousands of others in the country. let me introduce you to the guys hacking it. there is andy in glasgow. hi, andy. hi! it looks cold up there. very windy. so andy, to prove you can take remote control, turn the pumps off. look, no hands. that's the blower.

now the pumps. and they're off. and we didn't touch a thing. andy, thanks very much for the fountains, i think you owe me a glass of champagne. merry christmas! so ken, can we hack somebody else‘s hot tub? we can hack thousands of these tubs anywhere in the world. who are they? they live here. so let's go look at kerry's hot tub in south wales, he tipped us off about this. hello, kerry. how are you? boys, hack it. oh, yes. nice work, guys, nice work. so how does it work? well, there's not enough security on the mobile application that you control the hot tub with. because these are online. that's right.

and there isn't even a username or password to the tub so it doesn't check that you are you. the fact that it's online and there is no authentication means we don't know who is trying to control whose hot tub. but how do they work out which one to attack? so, the only address you need is that of the wireless card inside the tub type and believe it or not, you can find those addresses on online war—driving databases like wiggle, which is a free source of information. that's public? yep, anyone can call in there. they can work out your hot tub, where it is and if you are in it or not, because the pumps will be on. in a statement to click, balboa water group, whose app connects to hot tubs, said... wow, hacking hot tubs.

no—one wants their hot tub hacked. least of all the company. they didn't see that one coming. no, they did not. we did that as a bit of fun for christmas. but there is a serious point to it which is that this year, we are going to get stuff that connects to the internet more than ever and if you don't take security seriously, then the companies that are providing these products, it seems to ask that they might not be taking security seriously either. so what do we do when we unravel our internet of things things? just once, read the manual change the password, don't leave it to the default setting because you will be more secure and it is important because once you get through to one of these products, you could get through to one or another or another. then it could be your computer that they get in. do it, or turn your bubbles off. this is a boeing 7117

flight simulator. it isa it is a pressure sensitive keyboard that allows you to do different things. and slide. we are in space. also, it has got loops. and you can actually make tunes with it as well. marvellous. thank you. there is more

music in the air now of a very different kind. this is a boeing 7117 flight simulator. it has the latest computer—generated visuals and it's been painted to look like heavy metal band iron maiden'sjumbojet ed force one. why? because it's owned by iron maiden's lead singer bruce dickinson who is himself a trained commercial pilot. the question is, can i learn to fly one of these in under an hour? that might depend on the quality of teaching. and it looks like my like my instructor has turned up. yes, it is iron maiden's bruce dickinson, an absolute aviation nut

who liked being a pilot so much, he bought the company. cardiff aviation maintains aircraft and trains pilots. walkie, walkie, walkie across the magic drawbridge into...another world. he has 6,500 hours of commercialflying experience. he is taking us up... away we go. ..and i'm bringing us down. what is it about flying that you really love? ok, look out the window. look out the window. 0k. it appealed notjust to the closet engineer in me but it also appealed to the kind of romantic artist in me as well because you get some odd things when you're flying across the sunset, and the darkness is curling over the top

of the plane like a tunnel, and it'sjust this incredible metaphysical moment. it's symbolic, that you are above light in the dark. it is getting closer to the mind of god. you know i have a feeling that i've just been sung to. time for me to learn where everything is and everything does. turn that knob left, until it comes to 270. look at the window, we are banking left somewhat. you are commanding the aeroplane to bank left. no way, i had no idea this is how you fly a jumbo jet, by twiddling these knobs. select flaps five. flaps five, captain. jolly good. ditto, you're getting the hang of this. iam. do what you say immediately. you have to be a certain disposition to be a captain because when they come over the intercom, they sound calm and professional, that's part of the training, isn't it?

i have no idea? i secretly think they're (bleep) themselves. theyjust don't let on. flaps ten, please. flaps ten. thank you very much. finally, night falls, with the press of a button in the simulator, and it's time for me to try and land the beast. so you're flying it. so that's telling you to go left a little bit. left a little bit. just follow the magenta line. the clue is, don't fixate on looking out the window. you will cock it up. excellent, you are absolutely spot on on the left—right.. just down a bit, there you go, excellent. oh, my goodness. excellent. you are really close to the runway, you are really tight so these directions are going to be timely and precise. simulator: 100. just a couple of things but that the line...

100, 40, 30, 10. there you go. getting the nose gently into the runway. oh, ladies and gentlemen! welcome to heathrow. terminal 666. landing ajumbo in, how quick was that? an airfield just outside london on a crisp winter morning. an ideal location to test a real—world experience against its computerised counterpart. virtual reality hasn't quite taken off in the way that lots of tech companies thought it might. but after developers have had the chance to tinker with the experiences, can they match the visceral nature of the real thing? we are about to find out. cue the montage. 0k, montage. ok, our bargain basement take on top gun is now out of the way. this

long—running video game franchise is more of an arcade shooter mcdine a super accurate flight sim later. it's racial —— its latest version boasts a virtual reality mode. kate andi boasts a virtual reality mode. kate and i are taking to the skies in these special acrobatic planes. not as fast as a jet but the airframe is designed for maximum manoeuvrability, allowing for acrobatics that are making is both questioned the wisdom of agreeing to do this. we are going to run through a series of manoeuvres that demonstrate the principles of aerial dogfighting. we fly in formation, then break

loose with one aeroplane chasing the other, as they would in a dogfight. we have been warned that some of these manoeuvres might pull up to five g, which would make our bodies feel five times heavier as well as inducing nausea. sick bags have been supplied. how do you feel? ok? how do you feel? 0k? don't talk to me for a moment. time to give the game ago. a quick spin on the without virtual reality. we are playing for real. now we are indoors, we are comfortable, sat in front of a console. let's see what it's like in virtual reality. because you look around and see a body, it is give you the sense that you really a re body, it is give you the sense that you really are in the cockpit. the

virtual reality is quite a bit more difficult. how are you feeling?” how are you feeling? i feel sick. really? yes. i have been in lots of virtual reality games but in the same way as the real experience made me feel sick, this made me feel sick. as the sun sets, kate and 1's sorties are completed. which was your favourite experience? without a shadow of a doubt, the real experience. i don't think, unless you have potentially the full virtual reality motion cabinet going on. the virtual reality does a pretty good job of making you think you are flying but it isn't anywhere close to the real thing. all that remains for us to do now is wonder off into the sunset. and then have a

lie down? possibly. we did not actually use our sick bags. it was close though. well done. i have been in a similar tour, these guys have been in a plane, nick has been to new zealand without leaving the ground. you see different flocks of birds flying over north and south island of new zealand. i know what you are thinking, nick is drunk. i crouched down under the table and there are fish. either that or i am heavily hallucinating with a massive pair of sunglasses on. again! iam touching... i am touching... no. well, iam touching... no. well, i i am touching... no. well, i am neither. welcome to the most incredible country in the world. i am actually getting a whistle—stop tour of new zealand from a talking kiwi bird. so why these random people. we are at a company in

central london trying out a new multiplayer board game. iam going multiplayer board game. i am going to say that is a fact. it isa i am going to say that is a fact. it is a mixed reality headset where you see virtual characters and objects interact with the real environment around you. it means you can see your competitors across the table. in—built speakers mean you can hear them too, as well as the game's audio. often when people think of new zealand, they think of the amazing scenery, the hobbit, but there is so much more to the destination and so enabling us to bring to life the stories and add those elements through a mixed reality experience really showcases the destination in a new light. it is new technology, new software, new hardware, and we worked for

quite a long time building it up and understanding how these experiences might work. the headset's senses and six cameras track where you and your hands are, strengthening the illusion and allowing you to interact with the digital items. here comes my golden egg. thank you very much. each viewer sees the same object but from their best point of view, so the talking kiwi bird addresses each person simultaneously as if you were talking to adjust them. for the company that was recently valued at $6 million, they have certainly got plenty of cash to play with. air new zealand hopes of the technology will one day be used on board the aircraft, where they will certainly have a captive audience. and down the line they wa nt to audience. and down the line they want to bring the game to your living rooms and improved interactivity between players. right now, iam pleased interactivity between players. right now, i am pleased as punch with my

holographic flying trophy. the golden egg cup goes to me. paul, back in the room. welcome back. what are you doing and what are you wearing? this is the brain sensing headband. is it sensing a brain? apparently there is one in there somewhere. it helps me meditate. it links to the app on your phone and it plays, supposedly, relaxing sounds. in this case, rainfall. slightly counterintuitive. these sensors on the front and side measure the electrical brain activity on the side and it affects the volume and intensity of the rainfall that plays on the app. it is slightly counterintuitive because when it rains heavily, that is telling you you are thinking too much and it wants you to clear your thoughts and become. so when you are

thinking too much, it plays were really loud noise to get you to stop thinking? exactly. excellent. it makes perfect sense. i guess this is useful for people who need to clear their mind and be a bit more effective about what they are going to do next. i guess so. it is £200 though. it looks very relaxing but if you need more help concentrating at home, this might do the job. if you have ever worked from home, there is probably something you have struggled with. not noisy neighbours or running out of coffee but something much worse. i am talking about procrastination. the only person who is going to know if you slack off is yourself but what if someone were watching you, holding you to account about how you are spending yourtime? you to account about how you are spending your time? that is the idea of focus mate. the idea is to

connect you with another person who is also struggling to get stuff done. you agree a day and time on the site and then you meet up for some virtual co—working. so far so good. but this is when things get a bit weird. when the introductions are over, you spend 50 minutes working in total silence. the webcams are still on. you can spy on them and they can spy on you. the hopeis them and they can spy on you. the hope is that if you know someone is watching you, you will both be more productive. that is the idea but what is it actually like to use? i have got my first session booked in with the founder. you are at home right now? this is your living room? it is, yes. what is wrong with good old—fashioned willpower when it comes to working? it doesn't work. evenif comes to working? it doesn't work. even if your willpower is amazing and you are way out there, off the charts, you are still contending with morgan —— distractions than you

are built to handle. taylor says focus make is founded in real science by activating behavioural triggers around commitment, accountability and social pressure, the thinking is that you are more likely to get into the flow. each call is made to begin with you both stating what you want to get done in the time and ends with you revealing what you actually achieved. it is twea ks what you actually achieved. it is tweaks like this that taylor claims makes the difference. we have begin the structure that says, if you add her to this format, great. if you don't, there is a potential penalty of no longer being in the good graces of the community and that is a huge driver. the community is still quite small. you will see familiar faces cropping up all over the calendar but while there is not many of them, it is clear something keeps the users coming back. then lives in london and has been using the app for several months. there

has been a lawyer in germany who has been studying, a guy from romania who is trying to learn a language, and a guy from california who spent about 25 minutes stretching in front of the camera. the number of people working remotely is growing every year so while it isn't for everyone, in the future, tools like this could bea in the future, tools like this could be a lot more important. in the future, tools like this could be a lot more importantlj in the future, tools like this could be a lot more important. i have to say, someone watching you through a camera while you are doing yourjob? it sounds a bit creepy to me. anyway, that's it for this year's clickmas special. thank you so much for watching. thank you, guys, you for being brilliant to work with for another year. we have one more present for you. if you weren't in the audience of our recent click live show, next week you can see it on tv. from us to you. and from all of us, merry clickmas! merry clickmas! cheers! today definitely our fereday of the

two this weekend. most of us will enjoy at least a few sunny spells. tomorrow much cloudier, greyer and wetter. some showers for western scotla nd wetter. some showers for western scotland this afternoon. a few strays elsewhere. but generally a lot of fine weather. mild in the south. quite chilly further north after a frosty start. if you are heading out this evening, pretty fine. but into the small hours of sunday, rain will pile into the south—west of england, wales and northern ireland. a chilly night across scotland with widespread frost and a few patches of fog developing. here is send as picture. weather fronts coming to sit across the southern half of the uk. scotland will get the best of

the fine and if any sunny weather. further south, more cloud around and some outbreaks of rain at times. on the plus side, it will be very mild once again. good afternoon. two people, a man and a woman, have been arrested by police investigating the illegal use of drones at gatwick airport. repeated sightings led to the runway being shut for long periods, with around 1,000 flights being cancelled or diverted, and more than 100,000 passengers stranded. the airport is open but delays are still expected because of the backlog in cancelled services.
