today's record is in part about status and it creates a lot of publicity for mr kimura and his sushi empire — but it is also a reflection of the scarcity of large pacific bluefin tuna. they are officially listed as an endangered species. last year catches off the coast ofjapan were significantly down and since the middle of last year, prices in tokyo have climbed by more than a0%. football and it's fa cup third round day — with the major shock of the afternoon coming from league one gillingham, who beat premier league cardiff city 1—0. and manchester united won their fifth straight game under caretaker manager ole gunnar solskjaer with a 2—0 win over reading. adam wild watched the action. in this famous old competition, these two sides have history. manchester united and reading first met in the fa cup more than a century ago. times have changed, but united side is beginning to remind

even of what they were. they went ahead ina even of what they were. they went ahead in a modern way. the ball went in buta ahead in a modern way. the ball went in but a video replay gave them a penalty instead. although reading had chances, the lead was doubled before the break. lukaku squeezing ina before the break. lukaku squeezing in a second. that was enough to take united's winning run under ole gunnar solskjaer to five. the good old days not yet, but the history not feeling so long ago. chelsea won the fa cup last year and swept aside nottingham forest. few scares there, but elsewhere a shock. gillingham of league one knocking out cardiff city from the premier league. that's it. this is bbc news.

raid at this property in farnham, police arrested a man on suspicion of murder, and a woman on suspicion of assisting an offender. officers are still looking for the murder weapon. i heard the police shouting the usual stuff, you know, "put your hands up, turn around," all that sort of thing. and then it went quiet. and then they lead her out first, put her in a police wagon over there. and a few minutes later, they brought him out, handcuffed, put him in a police wagon here. there was armed police. lots more police turned up. and that was it. police stress that a violent incident like this is rare. but nonetheless, have increased their presence at the station to reassure commuters.

it was yesterday at around 1pm that lee and his son got on the train at the london road station in guilford, towards waterloo. today police describe the confrontation with a 35—year—old. both menjoined the train at guilford. more or less straightaway, there has been some conversation between the two men. they have continued that conversation for about 3—4 minutes. first in one carriage and then have moved through to the second carriage. at some stage then, violence has then ensued, resulting in this tragic death of the man yesterday afternoon. specialist officers are supporting lee's 14—year—old son. but add those who witnessed what police describe as an incredibly frightening incidents may also need help. >> we have a weak front arriving in two parts of northern ireland and west of scotland. that will produce outbreaks of rain in the evening and overnight. as it runs into area of

high pressure, much of the reynolds and to area of high pressure, much thank stu cctv and eyewitness statements. they are urging anyone that was on the train yesterday at around ipm, yesterday afternoon, to come forward to them even if they did not actually see the incident. the police watchdog is investigating an incident in coventry in which armed officers shot dead a man as they tried to carry out an arrest warrant. he's been named locally as sean fitzgerald, who was 31. friends said he had presented no danger to the police. two men were detained in the operation on suspicion of drugs offences. audrey dias reports. investigations have continued throughout the day on this busy residential street where last night and man was shot dead armed officers stopped up hearing a number of gunshots. west midlands police say it was an intelligence led operation. as a result of at least two more people have been detained. the incident has been referred to the independent

office of police conduct. who will examine footage from body camps worn by officers involved in the operation. outside the court in floral tributes have been made from the dead man who's been named locally as 31—year—old sean fitzgerald. his friends say he was having his haircut and a house when the raid happened. he was the nicest guy ever. ready to help anybody. and to be honest with you, he hasn't got much family at all. his family, you know, we need to get justice for my friend. the incident has shocked those living on burnaby road. i've lived there for 23 years, i've never seen anything like this, that bad in the city. it's frightening when you're living somewhere you always think i'll, it's never going to happen where i live. when he does, it is a bit of a shock. the independent office for police conduct investigators have been in coventry all day taking statements from the officers

involved, and overseeing forensics examinations at the scene. they've also appealed for witnesses to come forward. audrey dias, bbc midlands today, coventry. russia has dismissed suggestions that a former us marine accused of spying, could be involved in a prisoner swap. paul whelan, an american who also has british nationality, was detained in moscow last month. his family says he was simply visiting russia to attend a wedding. his lawyer had raised the possibility of a prisoner exchange, but a russian minister said the arrest was ‘very serious', and talk of swapping him for a russian detainee was ‘inappropriate‘. smokers and problem drinkers who are admitted to hospital in england will be given help to cut down or quit. the measures are part of a new long—term plan — aimed at reducing demand on the health service. nhs england says problem drinkers and smokers cost the health service six billion pounds every year. donald trump says that the partial us government shutdown, now entering its third week, could last months or even years.

democrats are refusing to fund mr trump's wall along the border with mexico. officials from the white house and congress are meeting again now. mr trump says he is considering declaring a national emergency in order to build the wall — without congressional approval. our correspondent david willis is in washington. they did meeting in the building behind me to try to find an end of the partial government shutdown that is now entering its third week. at the heart of this dispute, of course that wall that you mentioned along the border with mexico. president trump may be issued a signature campaign issue for him. and he says it is vital in the interest of national security. indeed he tweeted this morning saying that the only people who did not want to see a border wall were "criminals, drug

dealers and human traffickers". what he failed to mention of course is that democrats don't want to see this wall either. they believe the project is wasteful and would be ineffective. and crucially perhaps, they now have the majority in the house of representatives. president trump is refusing to sign any legislation that would end the current government shutdown which does not include billions of dollars of funding for the wall. so we have a standoff here. 800,000 government workers not being paid. museums and other federal government buildings closed. and rubbish piling up at public buildings as well. so it is a sign, i think, public buildings as well. so it is a sign, ithink, of public buildings as well. so it is a sign, i think, of how far apart the student site are at the moment, that the president is also saying he's willing to see become an shutdown go on for months if not years, if that is what it takes for him to get his way. one of the bosses of a ferry firm

awarded a government contract to ferry lorries across the channel in the event of a no—deal brexit has insisted the company will be able to make four round—trips a day between ramsgate and ostend. seaborne has never previously operated a shipping service. jean—michel copyans told a french newspaper that the company would have been launched without the £14 million award. more now with our business correspondentjoe miller. seaborne freight had been awarded this £14 million government contract without having sailed a ferry or a vessel before. the compa ny‘s directors and their executives have provided very few details to us about their plans for ramsgate port and have refused on—camera interviews. but now as you say, jean—michel copyans is one of the ceos who has given this interview to a small french calle—based new site — and in that he gives some more details, although not too many, about the plans for the ramsgate to all stand in belgian route. when he says there will be four

sailings a day in time for the brexit of the 29th of march and they're going to employ 200 people by then. and given that the recruitment page of the website hasn't yet gone live, that is quite an uphill battle. but he's also saying that he expected to ramp up activity so that there will be 400 staff by sometime in the summer and at least four vessels on that route. some indication of how big the operation would be. what was his response to being questioned about why there was a postponement in terms of the launch of the line? he said there had been some problems in negotiations with the ramsgate ports and in getting it ready and with district council. these are things that we know already that there had been, some teething problems. but he seemed confident that now it was full speed ahead between now and the end of march. he said, as we know, that dredging has already begun

at ramsgate court and that seaborne as they told us yesterday, had been paying for that dredging. and separately in a belgian newspaper today, we have also learned that seaborne reportedly is paying for sniffer dogs and security fences over on the ostend side. so it seems to be that they are putting in preparation and that things are beginning to move. that was our business correspondent joe miller. ryanair has been voted the worst short—haul airline for the sixth year running, in a survey by the consumer group, which. the airline had to cancel scores of flights last summer — because of a series of strikes. ryanair has called the research ‘irrelevant‘, because it says it's carrying more passengers than ever. here's our transport correspondent, tom burridge. ryanair is by far europe's largest low—cost airline. but the consumer group which said it was by far the worst rated short—haul airline in an annual survey, which asked nearly 8000 of its members about recent experiences on 19 different airlines. which said ryanair‘s

overall score was dismal, with the airline was my reputation declining significantly over the past year. 2018 wasn't a good year for ryanair. multiple strikes by its staff across europe men huge disruption for hundreds of thousands of passengers over the summer. the airlines werejudged on criteria such as boarding, seating, customer service and value for money. thomas cook and wizz air also came out badly. easyjet was somewhere in the middle. and jet2 near the top. ryanair described in the ratings as irrelevant. it said it is now carried mi million passengers each year. an increase of 78% injust six years. the headlines on bbc news... police name the man who was fatally stabbed on a train in surrey — as 51—year—old lee pomeroy.

a man's been arrested in connection with the murder. the police watchdog begins an inquiry — after a 31—year—old man is shot dead by armed officers in coventry. amid the government shutdown, president trump threatens declaring a national emergency, in order to build a border wall without congressional approval. mountaineering experts say the risks of winter climbing should not be under—estimated, following the deaths of two young climbers — on ben nevis in recent weeks. a student from germany died on new year's day, while another young climber — 21—year—old patrick boothroyd from west yorkshire, died on the mountain in december. here's our scotland correspondent, james shaw. ben nevis, the highest mountain in the british isles and, for that reason, extremely popular with walkers and climbers. but the paths across its north face can be dangerous.

this is what's known as the ledge route. on new year's day, a student from bristol university fell 500 feet down the mountain from this path and was killed. her three companions were rescued by a coastguard helicopter. the actual helicopter managed to winch them off the crag from where they were and i was below the crag, which was carn dearg buttress, where, unfortunately, she'd fallen. it was the second death in recent weeks. patrick boothroyd, who was 21, died in december. tens of thousands of people climb ben nevis every year. most use this path to the summit, which is relatively straightforward, but some, including the two students who died recently, attempt the rock faces and gullies on the northside, which, even in the best weather, are never free of risk. many new climbers use professional guides. this group is returning from the mountain after a training day.

it's horrible to hear of accidents and fatalities in the mountains, especially because it's such a life—affirming thing to do. despite all of our best efforts, we can't control everything. it is a risky environment and sometimes things go wrong fairly randomly. experienced climbers know and accept the dangers of scaling britain's highest peak. those with less experience may not be so aware that this place can be beautiful and deadly. james shaw, bbc news, ben nevis. thousands of people in southern thailand are emerging from shelter, after the region's worst storm in 30 years passed into the andaman sea. many thousands are still without power, and holiday makers hoping to leave the tourist areas are being warned of long delays, due to a backlog of flights. nick marsh has more. as the rain subsides, the clean—up begins. it's calm now in southern thailand, but this place bore the brunt of the region's worst tropical storm

for three decades. it's thought at least two people were killed by storm pabuk, with homes wrecked and hundreds of thousands left without power. many, though, are simply grateful it wasn't worse. translation: the roofs and some rooms were gone. the house is filled with mud. coming back from town, i was thinking the house is completely wrecked. then i saw some roofs were still there. i was relieved. further north, the main tourist islands of koh samui and koh phangan were spared the worst of the wind and the rain. flights and ferry services there are starting to resume — but only very slowly. thousands of holiday—makers who had been placed in storm shelters overnight have now got the all—clear to leave by the authorities. translation: the waves in the sea are no longer that high now, and tourists are returning to their hotels. we are all doing our best to cope with the situation.

so far, there have been no major problems and no reports of casualties. it's highly unusual for thailand to face a storm of such ferocity at this time of year. it's not clear why storm pabuk struck when it did. but given its potential power, it's clear that things could have been a lot worse. nick marsh, bbc news. five teenage girls have died in a fire — at an escape room venue in poland. the girls, all 15 years old, had been celebrating a birthday party. ‘escape games' involve players finding clues and solving puzzles — to make their way out of a locked room. this report, from monika plaha, has flashing images. what was meant to be a birthday celebration amongst friends turned into an evening of horror. the emergency services were called to this escape room on friday evening after a fire broke out at around 5pm. five girls, all aged 15, locked in a room as part of the game, were all killed in the blaze.

a 25—year—old man was seriously injured. the incident happened in poland's northern city of koszalin. its mayor has declared sunday as a day of mourning. officials say they are inspecting over 1000 escape rooms across the country. translation: from tomorrow, all escape rooms, game centres and clubs will undergo fire safety inspections, with special attention paid to evacuation plans, escape routes in this type of location. there should be a moderator in each location able to unlock the rooms and let people out. we will check this and it will be strictly controlled. poland's president reacted to the news on twitter, writing it was a devastating tragedy that five joyful girls have had life torn away from them. the cause of the fire is not yet known but polish authorities say they will continue to investigate what caused this tragedy. research by the telecoms regulator, ofcom, shows the amount of time

people spend using a landline, has halved over the past five years. the use of mobile data has rocketed during the same period, to almost two gigabytes per person, per month. andrew fergusson is a consumer telecoms expert at the news website ‘think broadband‘. speaking a little earlier, he said he wasn‘t surprised by the figures. there has been a slow shift happening and it is very much a case of line rental is the thing that everyone hates to pay for, but we have to for the broadband. there has been a move already towards not actually talking about line rental and just the combined price of rental and broadband. so people are starting to forget it. it is changing, one of the problems is the costs of making a call if you make a call from a land line is increasing and that is something ofcom will have to watch for to make sure those who are reliant on their landlines don‘t get price—gouged.

we are seeing that, people complaining about call connection charges. it is can 90 pence for a ten second call. the idea is it encourages you to take the call bundles and they have a guaranteed revenue stream. because they know how much are gone to pay each month. andrew ferguson there. dashcam footage sent to police has led to more than 600 drivers being fined and prosecuted across wales over the past year. police received more than two thousand films — and the incidents caught on camera include having pets on drivers‘ laps. a similar scheme is now being set up in england, as rebecca john reports. dangerous overtaking. a familiar theme in the footage being sent to police by drivers, cyclists, motorcyclists and pedestrians across wales. recorded on dashcams and mobile

phones, more than 2300 films were sent to police over the last year. and action was taken in more than 650 cases. as well as dangerous driving and using a phone behind the wheel, two drivers were caught with dogs on their laps. it‘s working well and that it.. letting us get more of what is out there. and resources that policing unit deal with many fatalities. i‘ve seen quite a few submissions come through the stop so easily resulted in one of those fatalities. operation snap was rolled out in 2017 after a successful pilot scheme in north wales. it aims to tackle bad driving and reduce the time it‘s previously taken to process the footage. we are very proud of the fact that now we‘ve got a few safe and secure way the public can send us their footage, and that we are able to do it effectively. before operation snap was in place,

there was a 28—point plan process for the police that meant they had to go through many steps in order to collect footage and bring it back to arrange interviews. by allowing the safety camera process, he has now got that down from about 16 hours of officer time to about half an hour to an hour and a half for more complex cases. so that is around 3000 officer hours saved across wales every month. depending on the seriousness of the motoring offence, drivers have been fined, sent on a awareness courses or prosecuted in court. a similar scheme is now being set up in england and police from hong kong and japan have also met go—safe staff to learn more about the project. more than 100 people a year die on welsh roads. operation snap aims to act as a deterrent, to encourage responsible driving and improve safety for all road users across wales. now it‘s time for a look at the weather with alina jenkins.

hello. the first weekend of 2019 is proving to be a rather grey affair. extensive cloud cover across much of the uk. but it is quiet. it is mainly dry. here and there — a few breaks in the cloud, particularly to the east of the pennines, the east of the cumbrian fells and more to the eastern side of scotland. we will keep some clearer skies here for a time. however to the north and the west — some changes afoot. here‘s our area of high pressure across much of the uk. this frontal system will introduce some outbreaks of rain, initially into northern ireland and the western isles of scotland through this evening. this will then slowly slide its way south and eastwards overnight, but as it runs into that area of high pressure, much of the rain will tend to peter out. a few clear spells behind it for the northwest of scotland, into the night. some breaks ahead of it as well across southern parts of england. if the cloud does break for any length of time then temperatures getting closer to freezing. where the cloud is stubborn to go holding up between 1—5dc. the cloud to be thick enough tomorrow morning to bring some drizzle across parts of northern england and north wales, the midlands. elsewhere a dry and

mainly cloudy day. the best of any sunshine probably across north scotland through tomorrow afternoon. equally there will be a few holes in the cloud to allow a few bright or sunny spells, feeling a little bit milder tomorrow. temperatures up to nine or 10 celsius in some places. then to the northwest of the uk. this deepening area of low pressure as we go into monday, it is going to bring some operatively but notice a squeeze in the isobars. some very strong winds as well. particularly across scotland. here we will see some outbreaks of rain through monday morning, extending across into northern ireland. then moving into parts of northern england. maybe the far north of wales. ahead of it, mainly dry, some bright or sunny spells but it is the strength of the wind we are most concerned about on monday afternoon. this is an idea of gusts on monday. but for parts of northern scotland, we could well see their gusts touching 70 may be locally 80 miles an hourfora time. briefly it is a bit milder. ten or 11 celsius on monday afternoon but not for long, because as our bands of rain move their way southwards and tend to fizzle out behind it, we‘ll see some colder air.

that could bring a few wintry showers to the northern isles of scotland through tuesday, slowly those winds start to lose some of their strength by wednesday. further south it is going to be in mainly dry. there will be some spells of sunshine on tuesday and wednesday but after that brief milder spell, things get much colder again midweek. that is all from me. bye— bye. the family of lipa marais the 51—year—old man fatally stabbed on a train yesterday say it was a pointless attack, a man has been arrested in connection with the murder. an investigation is then started after a 31—year—old man was shot dead by police in coventry, officers have gone to unaddressed in the city centre as part of preplanned operation. and amid the government shut down, president trump threatens to declare a national emergency in order to build a border wall without congressional approval. smokers and problem

drinkers admitted to hospital in england, will get told to quit or cut down to try to reduce demands on the health service. that‘s it for me for now, carol walker will be a at 72-— for now, carol walker will be a at 72 —— seven o‘clock, until then, export state. —— it‘s sports day. hello and welcome to sportsday, with me lizzie greenwood—hughes and ben mundy. the headlines this evening. it‘s a gillingham giant killing, as cardiff are dumped out of the fa cup. holders chelsea are safely through, but it‘s a tearful
