league fulham out of the fa cup. we will have a full round—up of action in our sports round—up. —— oldham. theresa may says the uk will be in uncharted territory if her brexit deal is rejected. mps will restart debating the deal this week ahead of a vote in parliament. mrs may said she had spent the christmas break seeking assurances from europe, which might assuage mps who plan to vote against her agreement. but she gave little away on what those assurances might be, or what would happen if her deal is defeated. here's our political correspondent nick eardley. with the holiday season over, things are well and truly getting back to normal — dumping the christmas tree, getting back to the daily grind. for the prime minister, it means trying to finally sort out brexit,

but a new year doesn't mean a new approach from theresa may. she's sticking to a brexit plan, but she is hoping to offer assurances to win over her critics. the first is measures that will be specific for northern ireland, the second is a greater role for parliament as we take these negotiations into the next stage for our future relationship, and the third, and we're still working on this, is further assurances from the european union to address the issues that have been raised. the problem — assurances so far haven't been enough for people in here. the pm said mps will definitely vote on her deal in around ten days' time, but as things stand, a government defeat still looks likely. then what? then actually we're going to be in uncharted territory. i don't think anyone can say exactly what will happen in terms of the reaction... i was rather hoping you could! might she try asking mps to vote again? she wouldn't rule it out, but the pm is keeping us guessing on her plan b, including many in her own party.

could those who want no—deal end up with no brexit at all? might those who want a second referendum end up with no—deal? i've always said no—deal was better than a bad deal, what we have on the table is a good deal. but others still think they could do a betterjob... the reason theresa may has had such a botched set of negotiations is because of her red lines. if we, as a new incoming labour government, were to go to europe without those red lines, we know that we could get a different, better deal. there will be no easing into the new year when westminster returns tomorrow. the clock is ticking, and there's lots to do in 2019. nick eardley, bbc news. when nick came into the studio earlier he told me more about the discussions theresa may had been having with eu leaders. there is no detail on those assurances. the talks have been going on while we were enjoying christmas and new year.

officials from the eu and the uk were continuing to try and thrash out some sort of deal. that has not been a breakthrough yet which would allow theresa may to come back and say, "we've done it, i've got something legally binding on the irish backstop." that remains the big issue. clearly, there has not been that breakthrough yet. quite what theresa may could achieve over the next ten days or so that would change the game here isn't clear either. as we have discussed numerous times, the concerns that some of her own mps and the dup, who keep the conservatives in power, haven't gone away. it's not completely clear what would get rid of them. i suppose the question then is, what would happen after a vote — assuming it is lost, which all the numbers suggest, hence why she pulled the vote before christmas. that it would be likely lost.

if she loses this vote, what happens next? we are getting conflicting signals. she is saying, if you vote this down, there may be no brexit at all. liam fox says, if this deal is voted down, we may be talking about a no—deal brexit, rather than no brexit at all. i suppose that reflects the tension that still exists within the cabinet on this issue? absolutely. the prime minister does not want to talk about plan bs. if she has one, which isn't clear, she is keeping it very close to her chest. before christmas, we had cabinet ministers almost getting rid of the idea of collective responsibility and edging towards, maybe, their preferred plan bs. nobody quite saying this is what we should do, but certainly alluding to what they think should happen. we had andrea leadsom, amber rudd, and liam fox arguing about the potential benefits of a no—deal brexit. exactly. what was interesting about the pm's interview

this morning was that she was almost threatening both sides by saying it's "uncharted territory. " so, if you're somebody who wants to retain a close relationship with the eu, potentially stay in the eu as the result of a second referendum — there is the threat of no—deal. if you don't vote for my deal you could end up with something far worse. likewise, for the brexiteers in her party, she is saying, you might end up with no brexit at all if you don't vote for my plan. so, there is an interesting strategy of threatening everybody, promising nothing. it may work, it may win over some people. it could end up that theresa may's deal is the least worst option, whichever perspective you are coming from. yes, it's the only thing. theresa may is saying it's the only thing that offers a guarantee, the only thing that says this is what happens next. without it, as the pm says, you're in uncharted territory.

that is true. we have not been in a situation where a brexit deal has been voted down before. others will agree that is not true. parliament will take over the process and it will try and battle for something. we are not there yet. there is a vote in nine, or ten, days' time or so which will govern whether we get to that stage. what is clear, the conversations before christmas about the massive mountain that theresa may has to climb are still there. the mountain has not got any smaller, she still has a a massive journey to get to any place she can be confident that deal will go through. nick eardley, our political correspondent. it has been busy in the studio this afternoon. i spoke to the liberal democrat leader sir vince cable, who said he thought the prime minister's deal would be voted down not a great deal has changed, the prime minister has not got anything additionally from brussels as far as we can see and there is no reason to expect it, negotiations ended in november, they are just looking for

reassurance. the likelihood is that government will be voted down and is the prime minister says we are in uncharted territory. the labour party which has been quietly sitting back watching the government is now in serious trouble because the vast majority of labour voters, members and mps want to remain and their leader is a strong brexiteer supporting the government and there is clear indication that if he persists in his probe —— pro brexit position he will lose support. in the largest survey since the referendum itself, it talks about the impact of labour mps and also the impact of labour mps and also the impact of labour mps and also the impact on labour mps if they we re the impact on labour mps if they were too support theresa may's deal and says they would be punished for doing so by their voters. it is not surprising because in a way theresa

may's deal doesn't satisfy anybody. it isn't actually a deal, it is a divorce agreement. the deal is yet come. the deal is yet be negotiated so we have two more years of uncertainty and then possibly the backstop and in those two years we follow the rules of the european union but have no say over them.“ your greatest fear is a no—deal brexit, you have articulated that many times, theresa may is saying today that the risk if you vote against this deal. wouldn't it be better too hold your nose and vote for something that is not perfect in preference do something that you think would be disastrous?“ preference do something that you think would be disastrous? it is a kennard. actually, the no deal is highly unlikely it happen for the very simple deal it is the hands of the british government, we can stop a no—deal brexit any time. the governmentjust has to do it. —— kennard. the reason i am some of the other parties have put forward the motion for the budget debate on tuesday stepping in financial discipline, that unless the government does come into parliament

and get approval for what it is doing, in this case are no—deal brexit, they lose the to raise taxation, it's just a way of making sure the government doesn't drive us offa sure the government doesn't drive us off a cliff. are you trying two engineer a us style government shutdown? it is an interesting situation but we have a situation where we have a reckless government, as in the united states and parliament needs to exert itself in the way congress is doing in america but they are different situations. we are saying parliament is sovereign here and the government cannot drive the british economy and the country of a cliff in a careless way. if parliament is sovereign, why do you want a further referendum? because i think this whole process started with a referendum that i would frankly rather not have had one, i would would frankly rather not have had one, iwould have would frankly rather not have had one, i would have rather the whole decision—making rested with parliament but we have gone down that road. there has been a referendum. i think two nullify it would be considered difficult by many people —— to nullify it. i

think we have to go back and consult the people again. liberal democrat leader sir vince cable talking to me earlier. nhs patients in england are being promised access to "world class" treatments, as part of the new 10—year plan for the health service. the prime minister says the publication of the plan this week marks an "historic" moment for the health service — with the nhs budget rising by an extra £20 billion a year by 2023. labour says staff shortages and cuts to the health and social care systems in recent years will make it very hard to deliver what's being proposed. here's our health correspondent dominic hughes. one... two... jenny ray knows first—hand how hard it can be to live with poor mental health. for years, she's struggled with anxiety and depression. when she's needed help, she's had good support from the gp and the wider nhs. but she says mental health is still only second—best when compared to physical problems. it feels like we're making a start, but there still seems to me like there's a long way to go, um... and i mean, i don't

have the answers, but it seems to me that waiting months and months for treatment can't possibly be right. improving the provision of mental—health services for people likejenny is one of the areas the prime minister is highlighting today, mrs may outlining measures that she says secure the future of the nhs and will deliver world—class care. we're seeing more people, we're treating more people, but because the demand... but you're not hitting your targets. no, we're slipping against the targets, because despite the fact that we're actually doing more, the demand is outstripping that. that's why we needed to take a look, that's why we needed to put the extra money in, that is why we needed to say in future. it's all part of a long—term plan for the nhs in england, highlighting the priorities for the health service over the coming decade. they include improved maternity care, better detection and prevention of disease, and more support for elderly people to maintain their independence.

labour says it has no problems with the ambitious plan but the health service lacks the resources to see it through. a lot of the announcements in the plan, like trying to expand mental—health services, getting better at how we deal with cardiovascular conditions, getting better with how we treat cancer, there is nothing inherently wrong with those aspirations. the point is the funding isn't sufficient, and the staff isn't there. we need a staffing plan for the nhs. there has been a broad welcome for this initial outline of priority areas — more details will be unveiled tomorrow. but the nhs is already facing staff shortages, rising demand for services, and cuts to other parts of the health and social care system, so health campaigners say fulfilling the promises of better care over the next decade will be extremely tough. dominic hughes, bbc news. well, a short time ago, i spoke to patricia marquis from the royal college of nursing, who represents the rcn in england. she told me that her organistation

could only give the government's proposals limited support. i think, as others have said, we welcome the ambition of the plan and support the move to focus on prevention, on mental health, etc. our real concern is where the staff are going to come from. what we really need to see is the workforce plan that goes alongside this and where that investment will come from. and that plan is due this year, isn't it? we understand. we haven't had anything confirmed. but we are very hopeful there will be a plan. because without it, we are concerned that the aspirations of the long—term plan will not be able to be not be delivered. to be delivered. what's the picture at the moment in terms of recruitment, training and then retention of nurses in england?

we have a really significant problem with recruitment in nursing. the government took away the nursing bursary some years ago. as an aspiration too increase the numbers going into nursing. but unfortunately it had the opposite effect. we have seen a reduction in the numbers going into nurse education. alongside that, brexit has brought us problems with overseas recruitment as well. at the moment, there are over 40,000 nursing vacancies in england alone and that is set to rise. so it is pretty dire. that 40,000 is permanent full—time staff, is it? it is, and often those shifts are trying two be covered by bank staff, agency staff. that is often nurses who are already working elsewhere, doing extra shifts on top of theirfull—timejob. presumably at a premium to the health service in terms of paying a bit more for agency staff than they would for their own staff? certainly for agency, sometimes. for bank staff, often ironically they are doing extra hours, extra overtime but for base rates. for the nurses themselves they don't gain very much. theyjust work really hard, and that's what keeps the nhs going. the health secretary was talking on bbc news to my colleague ben brown a couple of hours ago, ben challenged him on this idea

of world—class services. he said, "put that aspiration to one side and deal with the immediate problems." he said, "look, you've got to have the aspiration for world—class services, because otherwise, how will you ever achieve that? if you don't aspire too that you won't get to it." isn't that a fair point, in terms of having a focus and objective for people working in the nhs? absolutely. i don't think anybody working in the nhs would argue with that. they want to deliver the best that they can. and the best that the world can offer. in many cases, people are still doing that. the nhs isn't a service to be ashamed of, it is a service to be really proud of. at the minute, the biggest issue, aside from the need to focus on some of these services, we just don't have enough staff, whether that's nurses or others. there really does need to be a focus on getting

that right. otherwise the plan will not be deliverable. patricia marquis of the royal college of nursing. the headlines on bbc news. theresa may says she is still seeking reassurances from the european union for her brexit deal, and says the commons vote will "definitely go ahead". the prime minister also promises what she calls a "world—class" national health service, ahead of publication of the government's ten—year—plan for the nhs. the government delays the next stage of the universal credit rollout, amid concerns about the all—in—one benefits system. plans to move three million people on to universal credit are to be delayed amid concerns the system is causing hardship to some. instead, mps will be asked to approve the transfer ofjust ten thousand people to the new system, as part of a pilot scheme to see how the payments are working. the government insists the full roll out of universal credit will be completed, as planned, by 2023. michael buchanan reports. more than a million people are currently in receipt

of universal credit, either new claimants for benefits or those who had a change of circumstances, perhaps by moving house. in the next few weeks, ministers were due to seek parliamentary approval to move 3 million existing welfare claimants onto the new benefit. but the next phase of the roll—out now appears to have been delayed, with the work and pensions secretary, amber rudd, seeking approval forjust 10,000 people to be moved onto universal credit in the summer. that process will then be assessed, and further parliamentary approval sought, before every other existing welfare claimant is moved. getting mps to approve the migration was always going to be difficult, amid evidence that some claimants on universal credit have been forced to visit food banks, or have faced eviction. but a source close to ms rudd said the pause was the right thing to do, and should reassure parliament that she was listing the mps' concerns.

michael buchanan, bbc news. earlier i spoke to the labour mp and shadow work and pensions secretrary margaret greenwood. she told me that she hoped that the current rollback from the government, might be a sign that it's changing tact. we are we a re really we are really hoping that the government is starting two listen at last and think about the potential devastating impact of its plans for what it calls managed migration of universal credit. we are hoping they are starting to listen into the concerns raised but we have to wait and see and look at the detail. looking at this at the labour party conference in the autumn do you agree with the stated principle behind this? the stated principle of simplifying things everybody would agree with but the system is complicated behind—the—scenes and it

is the boof award and we have seen huge problems with it. we have seen things like people going into arrears because they have been waiting for payments. a massive increase in people going to food banks. this isn't what a social security system should do. whilst that ambition is fine, the reality is people have been struggling where it has been introduced which is quite different. you are currently conducting a review of welfare policy and will not want two pre—empt the outcome of that. has anything you have studied in your review made you more confident in the system? review made you more confident in the system ? —— review made you more confident in the system? —— not want to pre—empt. not really. there are real flaws in it. for example, people having to wait five weeks for a payment is profoundly problematic and that's the five weeks built into the system but on top of that hour delays because of delays in the delivery of social security. things like a requirement that people make and manage their claims online is

problematic as well because we know that over a quarter of claims actually aren't processed through two a successful conclusion and we have pressed the government on this —— to have pressed the government on this ——toa have pressed the government on this —— to a successful conclusion. i'm concerned that for people with learning difficulties, people struggling too read and write and people struggling to use the internet itself even if they do have access internet itself even if they do have a ccess a re internet itself even if they do have access are the people most likely to lose out in the situation. with managed migration in particular, this potentially has huge problems because with managed migration what will happen is that people will receive a letter saying that the benefits go into stop on a particular day and they have to claim universal credit. if you are someone suffering from depression just even receiving that letter may cause immense problems and people may not know how to get too the next phase so we think it is a really high risk strategy the government is conducting. we are calling for the government too halt the roll—out because we think these floors are

considerable and they need addressing —— to halt the roll—out. one of the things we heard a couple of hours ago on bbc news from the chief executive of the trussell trust, who have obviously expressed a lot of similar concerns, she says when she has pushed government on this question of the five week delay, before payments are made, she has been told that actually this is kind of inherent in the system. it raises the question that even if a labour government coming in would say we will scrap universal credit and do this differently, that practical problem might not be one that can be eliminated. well, the government could eliminate it if it wa nted government could eliminate it if it wanted too. if you look at jobseeker‘s allowance, their payments are within10—14 working days. two weeks rather than five weeks. that is a big difference when you think about it. two weeks for people potentially living without money. the fundamental problem of people being owed money not receiving money is never going to go away, is it? the problem with universal credit, because it roles

benefits into one including the housing element, the housing benefit, obviously particularly in the south—east housing costs are very high so people get into arrears very high so people get into arrears very quickly around that. we put out ten demands to government before the autumn and one was two address five week weight that would be a top priority really come along with the other real priority around not insisting on digital as a means of making and managing a claim. we know a huge number of people struggle with it, lots of people struggled two read and write so the people likely two be the most vulnerable are the people should be at highest risk and that's why we are so concerned about it. the shadow work and pensions secretary talking too mea and pensions secretary talking too me a little earlier. in the us, talks will continue later in an effort to end a budget row that has shut down key parts of the federal government

in the united states for more than two weeks. a number of meetings between white house officials and congressional leaders have failed to resolve the dispute over funding for a wall on the mexican border. speaking to reporters over the buzz from the rotorblade on his helicopter, as he prepared to fly to the presidential retreat, camp david, donald trump repeated his assertion that building a barrier on the border with mexico is essential. it's about safety, it's about security for our country. it's about stopping human traffickers. it's about stopping drugs. so we have to have it, we have to have it, we have no choice, i don't like doing this but we have to have it. another senior official at the pentagon has resigned following president trump's announcement last month that us troops would be withdrawn from syria. the departure of the chief of staff, kevin sweeney, follows that of the defence secretary, james mattis, and the department's spokeswoman. two british soldiers serving with special forces in north east syria have been seriously injured.

the talk of this town has been rebuilding trust and better reflecting the real world. so, the golden globes are being watched for signs that change will last, that actors, directors and stories of all kinds will be recognised. tv psychopath thriller killing eve is nominated twice after the bbc show did well on both sides of the atlantic. it has been incredible, i've never had this kind of reaction before to a show so it's been amazing. bodyguard, another action—packed tv hit, also has two nominations. i can handle more than him. in the film categories, vice heads the list after christian bale's full—body transformation into former vice—president dick cheney. hey, ijust wanted to take another look at you. also tipped is a star is born, a tale of finding fame and feeling its cost that's earned both lady gaga and bradley cooper nominations.

claire foy could win best supporting actress for first man, the story of the race to reach the moon. it's an incredible year for cinema, so many incredible films and so many different services that they're coming on as well, being streamed on different platforms. i think it has been an amazing year for, kind of, women especially, when you look at the nominations from the female category, it is remarkable. you only win when you maintain your dignity. green book, an account of 1960s segragation, green book, an account of 1960s segregation, is nominated five times. and if beale street could talk charts a young woman's struggle to free her wrongly—jailed husband. there is a place for black panther, blachklansman, and if beale street could talk in the same season, to know we're not a monolith, we have very different experiences, and it's great they're a part of the fabric of our film. then there's olivia colman up for best comedy actress and outrageous as queen anne

which has issued an amber warning, a yellow weather warning issued, i should say, for scotland meaning strong winds expected on monday and tuesday. the warning reads, very strong winds expected two affected northern and parts of eastern scotla nd northern and parts of eastern scotland on monday and monday night, gusts of between 55 and 75 mph likely particularly in the far north and north—east before the wind as these from the west during tuesday. that is some advice if you are setting out on journeys tomorrow or tuesday. of course, the beginning of the post—christmas period, first day back at work for many people tomorrow. if you are in scotland in the north and east of scotland do travel carefully tomorrow. let's look at the rest of the weather prospects with alina jenkins. hello. for many, it's been a day of extensive cloud cover. but compared to yesterday, there have been some better breaks to the east of the pennines, plenty of sunshine in places this afternoon. this was whitley bay a few hours ago. but for some of us, things

are about to turn wetter and much windier. it's all down to this area of low pressure in the atlantic working its way eastwards. it will be strengthening the winds through this evening and overnight across northern england, northern ireland, particularly across scotland, also with the cloud thickening as well and some persistent rain arriving from the north—west as we head towards dawn. it stays mainly dry further south, there'll be some breaks in the cloud, most should escape a frost with temperatures holding up to around four or five celsius. some very windy conditions tomorrow, as this deepening area of low pressure works its way to the north of the uk. notice the squeeze in the isobars, gives you an indication of the strength of the wind and it'll be wet at first tomorrow morning across scotland and northern ireland, some persistent rain sliding its way southwards into northern england, north wales, the midlands, weakening as it does. so, further south, it will probably stay mainly dry. rain will return to the north of scotland through the afternoon. it will be a mild day for all of us, 11 or 12 celsius. but it's the strength of the wind we're most concerned about. this is an idea of gusts through the day tomorrow. but for northern parts of scotland,

particularly the northern highlands and the northern isles, gusts will widely be 60 to 70 mph, locally 75, maybe even 80. so, some disruption is possible. the area of low pressure pulls away into the north sea across into scandinavia. behind it, we pick up a colder north or north—westerly wind. the temperatures will start to slide through tuesday and wednesday. we lose the milder yellow colours, they become confined to the far south western fringes of the uk, and elsewhere it will start to feel much colder. but there should be more in the way of sunshine on tuesday. a few showers blowing down our north sea coast where, combined with the new moon and the spring tides and the winds, we could see some coastal flooding. for most, it's a dry day. still windy for a time, starting to feel colder, temperatures between seven and 10 celsius. from tuesday into wednesday, it's this area of high pressure which is the dominant feature. this weak front sliding in will increase the cloud across northern ireland and the western isles of scotland, could bring some mist and fog, some patchy drizzle. but for the week ahead, after that windy start, it turns colder for a time, but mainly dry with

a bit more sunshine. goodbye. hello, this is bbc news. the headlines: the prime minister urges mps to back her brexit deal or risk taking the country into "uncharted territory". ahead of the launch of the long term plan for nhs, the health secretary says the service needs to change its focus. the next stage of the universal credit roll—out is delayed amid concerns about the new all—in—one benefits system. and will the favourite win? olivia colman is a frontrunner in tonight's golden globe awards in los angeles. sport, and a full round—up from the bbc sport centre. here is then. good to see you. what an afternoon in the third round of the fa cup. loads of goals and two genuine u psets to loads of goals and two genuine upsets to tell you about. the

biggest at craven cottage, as league 2 oldham biggest at craven cottage, as league 2 old ham athletic biggest at craven cottage, as league 2 oldham athletic beat premier league strugglers fulham. the fa cup can make drifting clubs feel special again. over 28 years, oldham feel special again. over 28 years, old ham athletic have feel special again. over 28 years, oldham athletic have slipped from the premier league to the fourth tier. after decades in decline, this was the day to celebrate. it had all looked straightforward for premier league full. they opened the scoring in the second half, but right now, this side are struggling and more used to download tumbles. from a routine corner, brian set injans felt the need to make this challenge. up penalty from young sam surridge, on loan from bournemouth. repeated cope with the pressure. 1-1, but repeated cope with the pressure. 1—1, but more was to come. all of tom cairney‘s top—flight know—how turned this challenge to a penalty, but that minimal contact proves old's saviour. it is saved! what a hero for all them. perhaps the best

moment those fans thought they would get, but that was not enough for the latics. soon, they were ecstatic. incomes across. it is in! what an upset this could be! and it is kanha van! all this for a club who sacked their manager on boxing day. pete while became caretaker that they after a 6—0 defeat. old, this was the match where all the parts came together and after years in the darkness, their fans got something back. i seem to have been the side story, which is great, because it has taken the pressure off the boys! it is a remarkable transformation, but one i'm going to savour, and you've got to. you have got to savour these moments in life. you are going to be in amongst those fans that were cheering old on today, but instead you are in front of them receiving

theiracclaim. ican't you are in front of them receiving their acclaim. i can't even imagine what that is like. i was the most proud man in oldham. can you believe it? no, still can't believe it. brilliant for oldham, and also, for barnet. relegated from the football league last may, today, they beat sheffield united side flying high. if this tiny spice, how about two currys? darren currie, caretaker manager in on the ballot, with his uncle, who left an indelible mark on so filled united. a nice family reunion, but only a side dish. after all, they were not exactly tearing up all, they were not exactly tearing up the national league. and yet, 20 minutes in, a penalty for barnett. what a chance now for sure killcord thirst, who played with harry kane in spurs' youth ranks. the proof was in the penalty. colthurst gives barnett the lead! now, team in the fifth division leading one chasing promotion to the first. sheffield united were lucky did not get worse

for them. barnett missed chances to make the sensational secure. surely there would be a response? the blades were strangely blunted. the clu b blades were strangely blunted. the club that has scored nine goals in his last three matches seemed listless, almost aimless. the locals we re listless, almost aimless. the locals were restless. there would be one last chance. at 89 minutes, the ball fell to leon clarke. brilliant save by mark cousins! a famous victory secured by cousins, enjoyed by the whole barnett family. icame on whole barnett family. i came on the pitch at the end of the game, and said we felt they deserved it. please. can't really but isn't too many words, but it is a wonderful occasion, and i'm proud they showed their capabilities, because we have some good players at this club. roll the words written and spoken about the club's decline, these words and sounds tell a different story. let's run through some more results

from the fa cup. a big win for manchester city, putting seven past rotherham united. phil foden scored his first goal at the etihad after raheem sterling had opened the scoring. riyad mahrez was also on the scoresheet as a strong city side cruised into the fourth round. we took it seriously, and the result looks simple, but you have to do what you have done, and again, one more time, compliments for the team, the way we played, the way we fought, the way we communicated with each other, and we will be now in the drawer. it was the shane ferguson show at the down as millwall knocked out fellow championship side hull city. they came on as a sub and equalised with one of the best goals of the round so far. and just three minutes later, he struck this brilliant free kick to send millwall into the next round.

qpr are also through after beating championship leaders leeds united. it was 1—1 within 15 minutes, but jake bidwell rose high to learn the draw. —— to earn the win. doncaster13—0 preston. the scoring is rounded off in the 87th minute. and wofford proved too much for national league side woking. goals from will hughes this from captain troy deeney sent the premier league side through. one more third—round tie taking place today. league 2's newport cou nty place today. league 2's newport county hosting leicester city right now, and we could have another shark, because newport are ahead. great work on the right earlier from robbie wilmut. he could not miss, and he did not, the goal in the tenth minute. newport county held until half—time. we can go there live now. these are live pictures.

it is still 1—0 to newport county. a chance goes in. leicester, fairly strong side from claude ewell, seventh in the premier league. they are looking at this as a chance to have a decent cup run, but newport county, 13th in league 2, and their boss michael flynn said before the game that the cameras are there because they think a shock is a possibility, and on this standing, the shop is on. seven minutes into the shop is on. seven minutes into the second half, newport county league still buy 1—0. women super league is back after the winter break, and arsenal have opened up a gap at the top. they came from a goal down to beat west ham 4—2. this headerfrom lee williamson gave them the lead. —— leah williamson. west ham then equalise, their dutch scorer scoring twice in the second half. they are two points ahead of manchester city after city drew at bristol.

but tonight, he says that leading clu bs a re but tonight, he says that leading clubs are at war with the rfu. i think it is frankly rather ridiculous. we have not started to have any conversations and finalise our views on this, and therefore to suggest that civil war is imminent is frankly ridiculous. we want to expand the premiership internationally. there have been games in the usa. we have been looking closely at that market, but we would not rule out other countries as well. i think early doors. our partnership with cbc we're very excited about. we think it will be good for the lead in the game, and we will look at expansion, including internationally. we have gotan including internationally. we have got an eight year agreement with the rfu, and we have worked very closely in partnership with them. we have not put any proposals to them about this yet, nor have we finalise our own, so i think what we need to do is consider this further, and it is a bit precipitous to say that there isa a bit precipitous to say that there is a rift between us, because we have not had those discussions yet.

all the sport now. now, time for the review. —— film review. hello, and welcome to the film review here on bbc news. and taking us through the cinema releases, who else but jason solomons? new year, lots of new films? happy new year to everyone. welcome back to the cinema for new year, and to welcome us back, we'll go back to the 1700s, to the last stuart court, to marvel at olivia colman's awards—tipped performance as queen anne in the favourite, the restoration drama in which rachel weisz and emma stone vie for the royal affections. there's another superwoman pumping the courts of power under the lens. it's rbg, or the notorious rbg, as herfans call her, ruth bader ginsburg,

who's been known for her battles for equal pay and sexism in the american supreme court. she's one of the last dissenting voices. and in welcome to marwen, barbie dolls, action gijoes and nasty nazis help steve carell, a traumatised artist, over his grief by blowing them up to life—sized pictures. all right, let's kick off with the favourite. i saw it the other day. it's really fun, brilliantly acted, you have to say, and it does take you back to that time, doesn't it, hundreds of years ago? well, i didn't live them, then, but... then, ben, but... no! when everybody wore those extraordinary wigs. extraordinary wigs, and romped around. there's a bit of blackadder, there's a bit of eltonjohn video in it, a bit of sort of new romantic video, and it's called the favourite, and it's quickly becoming an awards season favourite, certainly with olivia colman, who i expect this weekend will feature in the golden globes very heavily, and next week's bafta week's bafta nominations, certainly, the whole film, i think, will be a big hit.

now, the star turn comes from olivia colman as queen anne, who, even in our period drama—obsessed film industry, we don't see much of, to be honest, so we are in about 1710 here, where she is lonely, a lonely figure advised by sarah churchwell, lady marlborough, whose husband is fighting wars of spanish succession, i think. one of the numerous wars we were fighting at the time. and she wants to use her power over the monarch to use her sway at court. she is the only person who can be brutally honest to olivia colman's monarch, as we can see in this clip. i'm ready for the russian ambassador. who did your make—up? we went for something dramatic. do you like it? you look like a badger. 0h. are you going to cry? really? well, what do you think you look like? badger. do you really think you can meet the russian delegation like that? no. i will manage it. go back to your rooms.

thank you. did you just look at me? did you? look at me! how dare you?! close your eyes! it's brilliantly acted, as you can tell from that. you sort of wonder, though, i really enjoyed it, i wondered kind of what it was about. is it about that power going to someone's head, the capriciousness of power? i think when it was written, it was about trying to get this very special moment in british royal history where the land was ruled by two, three women. it's about the vying for the affections for this monarch from this upcomer, emma stone, trying to get those affections of queen anne away from rachel weisz. it's set in hatfield house, which played a starring role. there's also bewigged aristocrats wandering around,

sort of being fat and excessive and doing duck voices, and it is directed by a greek director, and i think he brings a sort of freshness and a bawdiness and a risqueness to the british period drama, and i think in a sort of sense, he saying, you know what, it is 300 years ago, as pointed out at the beginning, but things haven't changed all that much in terms of the sexism, in terms of the power plays, in terms of the class struggle in british society. i think it's a sly dig at that. otherwise, it's just a very funny, bawdy romp, but it also gets very dangerous and emotional. the resonance is quite strong, and the performance from olivia colman is out of this world. i actually think she's going to win the oscar. great to see a film with all the lead parts played by women. yes, and the costumes are extraordinary. rbg, as you mentioned, tellers about that. yes, another powerful woman, perhaps not as famous in this country as in america, where in

recent times she has become a liberal feminist recent times she has become a liberalfeminist icon, a recent times she has become a liberal feminist icon, a self—styled superhero. they call their notorious rbg, after the rapper, who the woman herself points out was born in brooklyn, like ruth bader ginsburg. this documentary charts it career as a redoubtable, formidable lawmaker, all the way from harvard law school where she was one of the only women ina where she was one of the only women in a class of 500 men, too now on the supreme court, one of only nine places. occupying one of only nine places. she is one of the dissenting voices, she has a fighting spirit, and she really changed the workplace regulations of america and helps change social history, fighting as much for sexual equality in the workplace as racial equality. it has been a long career and a long battle. she was appointed by president clinton in the 1990s and is still there at 85 years old. she has had some ups and downs health—wise recently, but it is important to the liberal voices in america that she holds that place, because liberal america is under siege at the moment from various bits of institutional america. she

is seen as fighting back. she is made fun of by saturday night live. she has become this great figure, and you can see from the documentary what a twinkling figure she is, but she is also very powerful. there is a wonderful that where a child says, i never met a live vegetable till i was 1a years old. i never met a live vegetable till i was 14 years old. welcome to marwen, in which an artist creates a miniature world. tellers about that. might be one of the hardest films to describe i have ever done. that is not to say how hard it is to watch the damn thing! i don't think you like it! steve carell has inserted a belgian world war ii village in his garden, in which he inserts barbie dolls and action figures, based on his real life, and takes photographs of them. he blows them up to real size. he then falls in love with a ridiculously sympathetic new neighbour, who gets a tour of this model village, as you can see here.

something going on in the church? yes. do you mind if i take a look? i love how everything is so cute. all the little flowers and the mailbox, and these cute little curtains. it isjust all the details. 0h, curtains. it isjust all the details. oh, my god! what are they doing? who are they? they are nazis. torturing hoagie. why? they hate him. why? because he is an american? because he's different. well what is going to happen to him? that is at obligated story. well, tell me? we never really get to the bottom of that colleges have the filmproblem,

plus the rather creepy portrayals of the sexual fantasies with these then wasted barbie dolls. it feels very out of step. the film is directed by robert zemeckis, who is one of the great technical innovators, and so the technical stuff is quite interesting, how he makes the barbie dolls come alive and takeovers bruised artist's ego, in a way, but when the film does try to find a hard, it is either to painful to watch or too weird and creepy. we never warmed to the figure presented by steve ca rell, never warmed to the figure presented by steve carell, even though it was based on a real—life story. i can believe there was not a studio executive who said, look zemeckis, i know you did forrest gump, but you should not do this. this is the first—rate flop of 2019. films do not always work. they don't always work. what is best out at the moment? i'm going to say carry the festive cheer with merrie poppins

returns. people were nervous, will it match up to the original? there are still of cockney accents and songs about the lovely london skies. things need sorting out. lots of animation. bright animation, all those songs, balloons and big ben at the climax. nothing has changed very much. i struggled to see what the point of it really was, except i really enjoyed myself. i know so they will have and some haven't. some people say the signs are not quite as good. i think they are, we just don't know them. they are not the originals. there is one line that says, it's a real pea soup, you have to be a trooper. they get away with it quite charmingly and i wish them luck at the golden globe is for them luck at the golden globe is for the music nomination. and best dvd at the moment? another golden globe nominee for this spike lee's blackkklansman, nominee for this spike lee's blackkkla nsman, about a nominee for this spike lee's blackkklansman, about a black man

who infiltrates the highest levels of the white supremacist ku klux klan, along with his partner, played by adam driver. this is spike lee, back on his best, provocative form. that is what you want from him. it is not a perfect film by normal people's means, but for him, it is bang on, and i loved it. one of my favourites of the year. thank you very much indeed. good recommendations from jason solomons. that is it for this week from us on the film review. thanks for watching, and goodbye. hello. for many, day of extensive cloud cover, but compared to yesterday, calmer. things are about to turn wetter and windier. it is down to this low pressure in the

isles, gusts will be 60—70 miles an hour. locally 75 or maybe even haiti, so some disruption as possible. the area of low—pressure pulls away into the north sea towards scandinavia. behind it, cold northerly wind, so temperatures start to slide through tuesday and wednesday. we lose the milder yellow colours. they become confined to the south western fringes, and elsewhere, much colder. there should be some sunshine on tuesday, showers blowing down the north sea coast, where combined with the new moon, spring tides and wind, we could seize and coastal flooding. spring tides and wind, we could seize and coastalflooding. for spring tides and wind, we could seize and coastal flooding. for most of us, dry day, windy for a time, and starting to feel colder, 7—10. into wednesday, this high pressure area is the dominant feature. the wea k area is the dominant feature. the weak front sliding in increases cloud across northern ireland and western scotland. mr, fog and patchy drizzle. for the week ahead, after the windy start, returns colder for a time, mainly dry with a bit more
