no snow this christmas but if you want it a little festive we've got the next best thing in northern parts of the country, some frost around and also some fog will be forming across parts of england during the course of this evening and overnight. it could prove troublesome first thing in the morning. could be very thick indeed. a lot of cloud across the south—west of the british isles right now. in the north, we've got more sunshine but it is very cold here, temperatures in some areas below freezing during the day, a huge contrast between the north and the south of the country where it is a lot balmier here in cornwall. tonight, as we edge towards christmas, and the fog forms across northern england, the midlands, east anglia, the south—east as well, the london area will be affected by some fog too. again, a big contrast in the temperature. clearer skies and frost in scotland and the north—east of england. not the case elsewhere. the forecast for the big day itself, patchy frost and fog around, not necessarily in the same place. it will be a mostly dry day though. a little bit of sunshine on the way too. the weather is very settled
1:31 pm
because we have high pressure, it is dominating the whole of the weather across western parts of europe. here is christmas day itself. you can see a lot of cloud across the country but there will be some breaks, maybe for newcastle, maybe liverpool, towns and cities also in wales could get some sunshine. and mild. a mild christmas day across western parts of the uk. a little bit colder towards the east. but whereever you are, it certainly isn't going to be that cold. so, wednesday, boxing day, we have a weather front affecting the north of the country. this means perhaps a little bit more cloud and some spots of rain in western and northern scotland. to the south of that, again, i think variable amounts of cloud and sunshine. your best bet for some sunshine on boxing day, i think the southern counties here. it could end up being a very pleasant day for places like southampton, portsmouth, london. the further north you are, the more likely you are to hang on to the cloud. the outlook through thursday and into friday, it stays relatively mild.
1:32 pm
again, variable amounts of cloud. light winds. there's always going to be a chance of some frost and fog. so then, let's summarise christmas week. patchy fog on the way, there will be a touch of frost and some sunshine. bye— bye. hello. this is bbc news with reeta chakra barti. the headlines: rescue teams are trying to reach remote parts of the indonesian coast, where it's feared there are more victims of a deadly tsunami. officials say more than 370 people have died. there are warnings that eruptions at the volcanic island of anak krakatoa could trigger further deadly waves. ministers discuss security arrangements at airports following the drone activity that
1:33 pm
led to the closure of gatwick. delays on the roads and disruption for rail passengers is expected as people head home for the festive period. respect and understanding — the queen uses her christmas speech to deliver a message of goodwill to all. now on bbc news, one of our interviews of the year. pep guardiola, manager of premier league champions manchester city, talks about the music that has inspired him throughout his career. pep guardiola. hola, hello. thank you everyone forjoining us. this is going to be a little bit different. i ask you for some songs, and we are going to hear the songs and we're going to chat. nothing too revolutionary, but a little bit different, trying to get to understand you a little better.
1:34 pm
why those songs? there are millions of songs that everybody likes. maybe in that period that is what i listen to the most. everyone has a song from a different period, when you are young, teenager, getting married, girlfriend, it is com pletely married, girlfriend, it is completely different. married, girlfriend, it is completely diffe re nti married, girlfriend, it is completely different. i chose this one but i could have chosen other ones. you do listen to music a lot and it is part of your day—to—day life and you listen to it in the car, at home. yes, when i am at home, always the music is there. i love the radio. i'm a big fan in barcelona. when i went to work, i listened to politicians' programmes in the morning. i love it. the radio
1:35 pm
brings you to another place. you imagine the faces, the voices, and i love it. one day i would like to work in radio. radio show, like a talk show where you interview people? would you be a dj? talk show where you interview people? would you be a d]? no, not at all. i like music but i don't understand really. no, to be involved. to create a programme, i am nota involved. to create a programme, i am not a journalist, so i don't think it is going to happen but to be involved once a week, to talk to people, i don't know. there is something magical about music, isn't there? in three minutes, four minutes, itjust takes you to a completely different planet. you enjoy what music does to you. yes. of course. some music, you know, just for the ladies. sometimes for the music. sometimes you remember an amazing part of your life, a period of your life.
1:36 pm
yeah, music is part of the culture, you know? how many things change in the world through music? let's start, and let's begin with this. singing in spanish. it is the song that tells the story of a street village party. one of those that happens around san juan night, which is like guy fawkes night here. does this song take you back home a bit? yeah, a little bit. serrat is one of the best singers in catalonia, spain. he is one of my idols. he sang in spanish and in catalan. it always brings me happiness, this kind of song. i can listen once and once and once again. it always makes me happy. before the game i have energy. i love this song. i was not, you know, a guy like making a lot of parties. at 13 years old i went to the academy in barcelona,
1:37 pm
and i always try to be focused. but in summertime, of course, i'd never been to many discotheques or go to the pubs, drink, never did it. but in that period, i always remember in the summertime, sanjuan is the summertime, we finished school and everybody goes there. i remember a lot, my little town when i was young. and always i have memories of that song. we were not a wealthy family. i was so we were not a wealthy family. i was so happy at that period in my life. your dad is a bricklayer. it's a living now in the house that he built? yes. we tried to convince him to move on, little apartment maybe in the city but there is no way. i understand completely. he built that, he did it, and it is too big forjust a that, he did it, and it is too big for just a mum that, he did it, and it is too big forjust a mum and dad, but i understand. it is their house, their lives. they are football fans but they are not football orientated people. the love of football came
1:38 pm
naturally on the streets, i imagine? yes. that is the best way to improve. in america, they play basketball, not on a big heart, that on the street. that is when you learn absolutely everything. the future of players, they come back from the places they play. the people become better when they play a lot. the more golf shots you do, the better golf player you will be an football is the same. i heard you say that sometimes you are on the touch line and things are going not well. and you think — how can we do this completely different? well, the managers take a lot of decisions for feelings. so we have a lot of information. we have to take a lot of information and imprint in your brain, that is the first part. the second one, feelings.
1:39 pm
it is already in your brain. you have to leave your feelings. and sometimes the media or even your mates or your staff or the players understand that, yeah. we try to understand from this side, but all those things... we have got no chance, have we, of knowing exactly why decisions are being taken? yeah. so i imagine, from your side, when you look at some of the analysis of the work that you do, it must drive you crazy. yeah, but you know what happened? i understand. i'm no one to judge the opinion for the journalist, because it is so important for our business. it is so important. it is tojudge one game, the media should know what is the intentions to play that game. mm. then maybe it is impossible because i have to tell you before the game, ok, guys, i'm going to do this this this... the opponent will know what we are going to do and there are secrets in these situations. let's hear another song. which i think we have all heard at least once. # if i was a sculptor.
1:40 pm
# but then again, no. i was living close to the manchester arena and i saw a few months ago james taylor. i saw paul simon at his tour. i listened to noel gallagher and his band. many, many concerts. one of my dreams before i leave from this country, having a concert for eltonjohn. especially of this song, i was listening to your song when i was 18, 19 years old and started to play in barcelona. and i remember the song in that period a lot in my life. i don't know the reason why. i've never been in his... would be in one of my dreams. i've met him when we were playing watford last season, the last game and it was a huge pleasure. hopefully he will organise a concert, please, i will be there. "my gift is my song and this one is for you." do we all have a gift to give? a talent, a special talent, something that we are very good at?
1:41 pm
i think ithinki i think i am good. professionally, i think so. which bit? the living, the playing, the understanding it, the dissecting it? i think i'm good because of my passion. so i love... when you say i love this game. you know, i love, i love that. and when you put something through you, when your passion is in front of you, always it works. when i was in barcelona, more than here, i go to schools and universities, i say look for your talent. maybe you don't know what it is but look for it. you are going to work ina is but look for it. you are going to work in a more stupid thing, but you like a lot, you do it. then you do your best. then after that, you have a lucky moment in your life and it happens. always to my kids, i say the same. always discover what you
1:42 pm
like the most. then you will make your effort. then it will not be effort, it will be pleasure. life, sometimes it is short and sometimes it is long, but you will wake up every morning that is enough. that payoff for that reason. is there a second thing that you like the most? if football had not been a part of your life or something happened? when i try to relax the most is when i am playing golf. i think it is the only place when i am... people don't look at me, you know. i can walk. people in front 150 yards and behind you 150 yards. and we can go or you can play with your father or your son. you can play with your father, your friends, your wife. you can play with tommy fleetwood. so that is why it is the only way i can do little break... i see you break the routine.“ i see you break the routine. if you play golf just for fun, it i see you break the routine. if you play golfjust for fun, it is nice. always you have to pay to do better
1:43 pm
and to win. somebody with a gift, a huge gift, wasjohan cruyff. he helped me to love this game, to love football. and to love it, you have to understand it. to love something, you have to understand what you love. he gave us the secrets about the way he sees football, and they made me this passionate, put it in my blood. even to now. he was like a spiritual father, like a father in a sport way. it was so rough, so tough, you cannot imagine. and it was a time so i cannot stay any more with him. i remember when we went to barcelona, i said "i am going because i cannot stay any more with him, forget about it." so it was so rough. do you still talk to him? with whom? withjohan. well, i am not so religion guy. i grew up like going to the church, you know? but i don't believe too much, maybe one of the lovely persons
1:44 pm
i ever met in my life, like every weekend go to the church and maybe he will be good friends with me. but he is always present. so i don't talk to him, but always he is a part, always i remember, and especially in this period in england i would have loved if we would have been able to watch us, you know? # start spreading the news. # i'm leaving today. what can you say that frank sinatra can explain better than anyone else? what is new york. anything you need, anything you want, here, you got it. no problem. it isa want, here, you got it. no problem. it is a service city. there you have it. the charisma of this city, you know? everybody wants to go to new
1:45 pm
york and when you come back, you wa nt to york and when you come back, you want to come back. when you want to go away, you can go away because you can hide. no, i want to stay in barcelona. i have to move on, and not even europe because that is still involved there. in the states i thought is a nice city to spend one year and it will be far away from football. and there you learned german? i arrived there and stayed the first month there and immediately i signed a contract to go to bayern munich and started to study german. in new york. in the morning it was three or four hours a day. studying a little bit of grammatic, and after two or three months i remember i wanted to call and break the contract because it would not be possible to learn! it was so complicated. but i was... iam... stubborn? stubborn. in that situation. i spoke with my
1:46 pm
teacher and they said focus on football words and concepts, and ideas about football. and i arrived in germany with the basics. and after living there and talking with the people in german, i could more or less speak more or less fluently in german. say if this story is true. you were going to meet around december or something. yeah. and only met by accident sir alex ferguson. yeah. who was your neighbour at the time. and ferguson said, "what are you doing here?" and he went, "well, you know i've got sausages and i've got a company that sells sausages and i've got a meeting about sausages." that's true! is it true? yeah, he has a big, big company in sausages. really good. they are really good. but, yeah, that happened, that happened. that must‘ve been amazing as well, dinner with sir alex. yeah.
1:47 pm
because, for what i know of you, you love the legendary part of football as well as, you know, working with kids. yeah. everything has to do with football, but sitting down with sir alex ferguson... i had bought one biography of sir alex and i had read it. ithought i had bought one biography of sir alex and i had read it. i thought to be his player was not possible at the end of my career. after we played in the city and i met him more as a person and he is fantastic. that is a joy to be a manager of football, to meet extraordinary people. and when i saw him in old trafford again with all the people, the crowd, and you know clapping and he deserved it. all our respect. and i am so glad he's coming back and going well. for the biography i wrote of you, i asked him to write a forward. he didn't think about it twice. he actually said, "why leave barcelona ? " of course he understands football in
1:48 pm
a different way to you. no, i understand. the way it is in england, you can stay 20 years in one place. it is true. we have many problems in the club, in the locker room and we have got to be tough with the players. nothing goes out. you know? it is a few times. in barcelona or in bayern munich, everything would happen. in one place or another, in the media. that is why here you are more comfortable. is it true that it comes from performance and results and not the other kind of stress? the result at the end, you continue, but it is the
1:49 pm
way you live day by day, your profession, the people you are working with, with the same situation. that is completely different. i don't know if sir alex ferguson, 25 years, if that would be possible. you know the reality. i think it is more comfortable. now let's go back from the states, let's jump the atlantic ocean for this next song. # so sally can wait. # she knows it's too late as we're walking on by. what do you think when you hear this? i love, you cannot imagine, this? i love, you cannot imagine, this song. it's incredible, this song. it is probably the best of myself when i listen to this am. it is a masterpiece. we sang with the staff
1:50 pm
every time we go out, and always we sing this song all together. we love it. and after it was known to me so well. i like it, i like this song. i like it after what happened after the manchester arena. now it is a song for the people. that moment when you're in youtube, you know, everybody in silence and one woman starts to sing the song and everybody sings. that is a moment. a moment that will be so, so touchable for my family and for myself. when did you hear about it first? about what happened at the arena? i was at home with my son and my wife and daughter were there. and... at the end we were lucky, unfortunately for the people who suffered. and we were lucky. and after we went down with my son. did somebody call you? she called me. but the line broke. we tried to call her again and it doesn't work. and after, we went to the arena,
1:51 pm
and afterfive minutes, six minutes, she called me again, "we are out, we are out, coming back home". why not a big house outside manchester, and instead you live in the city centre? always, when i went to roma, and borussia to roma, and borussia and new york. it is easier in barcelona. i always have to live in the city. because i don't live alone — i live with my wife and kids, kids and the school and i go working, and my wife is away. you know, with that house alone there. being in the city, you can go to the cinema, you can go to the restaurants, close, we can go walking, we don't need the car. it is much more comfortable. we like to live, you know, in the city. in the middle. i like it. so i am sorry, i will be a mancunian for the rest of my life, so i will be a manchester city fan. it will not be possible to train another team in england
1:52 pm
like manchester city. because i feel love from the people here. # it'll be ok. # on the healing day. so simple. and so beautiful. yes. why this song? it is a perfect song to, you know, to stay at home when you read a book or being even with the kids and listening and listening. there are songs, you know, the music is like this, sometimes it is the lyrics, sometimes it is the tone, sometimes... i don't know. but this song will be remembered at the period of my life here in manchester. i listened a lot this song. is your wife the anchor, the reference, the energy provider? what does she do when you come home? she is there, so it is... for her sometimes it was easy, sometimes not. but the lovely kids we have is because she was there. so if we decide to move to new york or decide to move
1:53 pm
to munich and now here — if she doesn't decide to come, i don't come. i will not be here. i cannot be alone in this kind of job without the family. some of the times i am home and i am not home. they call me and i don't answer. i am in not home. they call me and i don't answer. iam in my not home. they call me and i don't answer. i am in my world. but they know it already. david will be eternally grateful for what has happened in the last 12 months or so, because sometimes there are things that are bigger than football. i understand that the first thing that you said to him was "what do you need?" if you want to go back home, just go back home. is that how it went? of course. what should i do differently? what happened... you know, the premature? premature, yeah. premature child. so the real, real, premature. he fought, little matteo fought for his life. a lot, many months.
1:54 pm
and david said, "you've got to stay three months there. stay three months there and decide when to come back, come back. decide yourself." so we are there, everything you need. and i think matteo will be strong. he survived or he fought for his life. anything can happen in his life. he can handle it." the last song we are going to hear is this very famous one. # welcome to the hotel california. what do you love about this song? someone doesn't love this song? laughter. yeah, i guess, i guess... no way! no, no, no. always remember when i was young, this song. when i lived with flatmates in barcelona. i went out with the residents from barcelona and i could earn some
1:55 pm
money but not enough to live alone. we were a couple of mates together, the same team, and i remember the eagles, listening to this song a thousand million times. a musician's legacy is in the song. what would you like your legacy to be as a football coach? but also in life? believe me, always i try to, you know... to the people i'm working with, be comfortable with me. or i try to be comfortable with them. statistics and numbers is nice, but are you happy to be there in perspective of all we have done like this. that is numbers, you know. numbers are not passion, it does not give you something. it is better when it is still after ten years or 12 years i remember this final and how good they played. you know, i think all the managers, we are happy with our players or players when we see each other again, we can laugh,
1:56 pm
we can hug, we can talk. we have a good relationship. so everyone wants to be loved. we've reached the end of the road. i really enjoyed this and i wanted to thank you for your time here. thank you very much. it was a pleasure. it was the first time i'm in the bbc. oh, yes. it was the first time. one friend of mine, one friend of mine tells me that spain needs a bbc. one bbc. the moment spain has one bbc, spain will be different. yeah, you have to change spain perhaps to be able to have one bbc. but i know what you're saying. thank you. clear and cold weather in the north
1:57 pm
of temperatures barely above freezing in many areas. said christmas eve. the fog will be forming across parts of northern england, eastern england, the midlands, east anglia and the south—east. by the early hours of tuesday morning, christmas day, it could be dense in places, so take it steady if you are planning to travel early in the morning. in the north of the country it will be very frosty, so more festive with temperatures as low as minus four in aberdeen. this is the summary for
1:58 pm
christmas day. patchy mist and fog is under way and frost but the weather will be mostly dry. not necessarily very sunny but calm conditions with light winds on the way thanks to the high pressure which is settled across south—western parts of europe. this is what it looks like for the big day itself. there will be some sunshine, possibly newcastle and parts of wales. and not cold. temperatures i2 parts of wales. and not cold. temperatures 12 in plymouth and 9 degrees expected in edinburgh. tomorrow it will be warmer than it is today in edinburgh. boxing day, cheeky weather front around this high pressure drives around it, and it will bring damp weather to western scotland. to the south of that we are talking about mostly cloudy weather. the south coast itself could be getting some sunshine, decent sunny spells by the time we get to boxing day. your best bet for beautiful weather on boxing day is from plymouth to the isle of wight. further north the sunshine will be hit and miss. fairly mild in double figures. the rest of christmas week looks pretty much the same. a lot of cloud across the country with temperatures a bit above average for this time of year, closer to 6 degrees. putting double figures. watch out for patchy fog this week. there will be some around
1:59 pm
and a bit more thrust here and there but apart from the cloud, there will bea but apart from the cloud, there will be a bit of sunshine. —— a bit more frost here and there. on the whole, not that bad. goodbye. this is bbc news. the headlines at two. rescue workers continue the search for survivors of the tsunami in indonesia, more than 370 people are now known to have died. there are fears the death toll could rise, with warnings of more deadly waves triggered by volcanic eruptions. ministers discuss security arrangements at airports following the drone activity that led to the closure of gatwick. thousands of rail passengers face disruption over christmas because of major engineering works. respect and understanding, the queen uses her christmas speech to deliver a message of goodwill to all. chris evans bids a festive farewell to listeners as he hosts his final radio 2 breakfast show.
