a cold front, not much in terms is a cold front, not much in terms of bringing rainfall but it will start to introduce some slightly chillier air. on the next few days we are sitting on the boundary between cold air from the arctic and milderair between cold air from the arctic and milder air pushing in from the atla ntic milder air pushing in from the atlantic and that will flip—flop our temperatures as we move into next week. on sunday, we have mild sitting to the south ahead of the cold front, quite a bit of cloud, temperatures still set to reach double figures. further north, brighter skies, showers in northern and western scotland but the temperatures will fall through the day behind the cold front and we are looking at seven or eight in glasgow and aberdeen. overnight on sunday into monday, the colder air will slide all the way south across the uk and another where the feature will start to eat its way southwards and behind that of the air will be colder still and you can see the frost developing in lerwick and wintry showers feeling down the north sea. this is what it looks like on monday morning, that other

feature. the sky is looking pretty clear on monday, a lot of sunshine but pretty chilly to start with on what could turn out to be a chilly day. quite a bit of sunshine around, some hazy sun in the north—west thanks to high cloud but it will feel colder, especially with the northerly breeze although not particularly strong. temperatures are looking at six or 7 degrees, may be double figures in the south west and south wales. on tuesday, we turn it on its head again, the wind direction has changed to a south—westerly, rain is pushing into scotland. we should see some decent sunshine but the temperatures do a greatjob at recovering, back up to figures that we have seen at the weekend, ten and 11. but on wednesday, it all will change again. low— pressure wednesday, it all will change again. low—pressure sinks in south across the uk, more cloud around and you can see some white here showing on the chart, colder air digging can see some white here showing on the chart, colderair digging into the chart, colderair digging into the weather system with things turning a little more wintry. still
10:32 pm
mild in the south on wednesday, temperatures sliding back down from the north as the day goes on. it is this front sliding south that will push all the way southwards overnight wednesday into thursday and back into a northerly. you can see the wintry showers in scotland. thursday, a lot of us have some widespread spells of sunshine but it will be colder. with light winds we are expecting some quite frosty nights. the daytime high on thursday, some of us have 45 degrees so again, thursday, some of us have 45 degrees so again, no real change. on friday, not much change —— four or 5 degrees. next weekend, thejet strea m degrees. next weekend, thejet stream splits across the uk so that action goes north or south and we are in no man's land with high—pressure next weekend. nothing much dramatic happening. the following week it looks like this system could head our way and behind it is some proper cold air. in the following week it looks like things could turn significantly colder with
10:33 pm
widespread overnight frosts but stay tuned because they could be an increasing risk of some snow. hello. this is bbc news with geeta guru—murphy. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment with anne ashworth and john rentoul, first the headlines. a saudi teenager whose efforts to escape her family gained worldwide attention has arrived in canada where she's been granted asylum. hundreds of protesters have marched through central london demanding a general election and an end to austerity, ahead of a crucial week in the house of commons. two french firefighters and a spanish tourist have been killed in a powerful explosion in central paris caused by a gas leak at a bakery. nearly 50 other people were injured. prison sentences of less than six months in england and wales could be scrapped under plans being considered by the government. ministers think it could reduce re—offending. hello and welcome to our look ahead
10:34 pm
to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me arejohn rentoul, chief political commentator at the independent and anne ashworth, associate editor at the times. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in and unsurprisingly they all lead with brexit. the times leads with what it callls a very british coup. it claims groups of senior mps plan to seize control following the brexit vote on tuesday evening. a final warning from theresa may to back her deal or face catastrophe is the express‘s headline. the observer looks ahead at tuesday's brexit vote saying labour mps have been told to prepare forjeremy corbyn to table a vote of no confidence in theresa may's government as early as tuesday evening if she suffers a heavy defeat.
10:35 pm
the daily mail leads with last week's brexit developments which saw the speaker of the house allow an ammendment which forces the prime minister to come up with a plan b within three days if she loses tuesday's brexit vote. the telegraph says the tories are on the brink of imploding over brexit. let's have a look at those. we are going to begin with the sunday times. their headline, a very british coup, revealed house of commons plot to seize control from theresa may. two groups of mps are wanting to change rules emotions proposed by backbenchers would take precedence. we are in extraordinary constitutional times. it is a bit like the great reform bill and the
10:36 pm
repeal of the corn laws all rolled into one. this is huge, historic stuff, all about the constitutional convention in parliament. the government controls the timetable. we saw this week to an extent the government losing control of the timetable because it was forced by the speaker and a vote of the house to make the prime minister come back to make the prime minister come back to the house if she loses on tuesday within three days. this goes a bit further, perhaps taking the power to extend the article 50 timetable for brexit, taking that power away from the government and giving it to parliament as a whole. whether that matters or not depends on whether you think hardiman as a whole is going to want to extend article 15. —— parliament as a whole. going to want to extend article 15. -- parliament as a whole. there is a lot of briefing going on. a bit of
10:37 pm
project fear going on that we are going to go into a constitutional crisis unless more people back the meaningful vote on tuesday night. do you think that is coming from number 10? there is a broader thing happening. when people voted to leave they thought they were taking back control. they did not think it would become a process where mps took back control from the executive. this is an extraordinary moment. remainer backbenchers have been seen to have got their act together, perhaps in league with former ministers, cabinet ministers, to derail the whole process. why did they wait so long, one wonders? is it only the... it is only a moment of crisis. you can scare people enough. a former cabinet minister
10:38 pm
was overheard discussing with the chief whip, except. there is an element of number 10 prime to put frighteners on conservative backbenchers to say, if you don't give the prime minister your support on tuesday then we whisk brexit not happening at all, which has been fairly consistent. john major also writing in the sunday times saying letters ta ke writing in the sunday times saying letters take time out and revoke article 50. sir mark wouldn't you need statute to overturn statute? are we in such a strawberry times that the will of parliament will dominate? the prime minister, can she revoke it? they would have to be legislation in parliament to revoke
10:39 pm
it. hardiman has already legislated for us to leave. —— parliament has already legislated. the sunday telegraph says tories on the brink of imploding over brexit. lots of mention of the quorn laws. this is an extraordinary story, all based on the fact that mrs may loses her vote. it would seem then there might be resignations from cabinet or the remainers would attack towards labour. as this story suggests... they would not allow no—deal brexit. this would cause such massive offence to the leave people that they would either implode, then they would possibly table event of no
10:40 pm
competence in the government. isn't it more that people are being threatened that some of the leaders might support a jeremy corbyn vote of no—confidence if theresa may offered the customs union idea to move to was a softer brexit? number 10 has been trying to put pressure on both sides. that leads to fairly inconsistent messages will stop they are saying we might not leave at all if you keep messing about. to the other side, they are saying, we will end up with a jeremy corbyn have meant. it is a real fear. end up with a jeremy corbyn have meant. it is a realfear. the end up with a jeremy corbyn have meant. it is a real fear. the tories could split. there is a quote in here from bernard jenkin saying, i don't know what happens to the conservative party. this idea that they would be essentially... there
10:41 pm
would be a great schism. or a spontaneous combustion. if anyone we re spontaneous combustion. if anyone were feeling bored with brexit the front pages are exciting and i would urge everyone to read them. they are becoming like a political thriller with a slightly chaotic plotline but really very interesting. the sunday express, me back my deal orface catastrophe. at this moment we know the prime minister is 90 votes short of the deal she needs but if she is to get closer to her target she has to get closer to her target she has to have labour mps supporting her. she goes and writes an article for the hardline conservative sunday express. who is she trying to persuade? it is both, it is everybody. she is trying to get labour with a softer move eventually if this one goes down. before that trying to get the brexiteer mps...
10:42 pm
there was the storage in the week about how attacking workers' rights. she has written a piece not saying anything we have not heard before in the express. that was a pleasing headmistress tone. the games have to stop. there was a little rebuke there. do you think this will persuade anyone, this piece? who knows if anyone is in a coherent enough state in parliament to assess anything rationally. if you are from mars and unit at these stories can you would think, this is a government? gracious me. there is a picture of chaos and every other issue that should be interesting as the moment entirely eclipsed by this. i know you track numbers, don't you? i tried.
10:43 pm
this. i know you track numbers, don't you? itried. it is this. i know you track numbers, don't you? i tried. it is a fool is game to try to predict anything. there have been forecasts saying the vote could be as much as 200 against theresa may. the government will hope it is less than that. numbers matter because it is a question of whether she has leeway to say, give me more time to bring something sensible back. the moderates, people who might support her within labour are not inclined to support her if there is a massive majority against her. it is difficult to make predictions. maybe something very jurassic will happen tomorrow or monday. maybe there will be a magical letter from the eu to transform everything. at the moment she is going to lose by a huge margin. she has two loose by that huge margin before people start to focus on what the choices are. do
10:44 pm
you think she will definitely hold the vote? it is going to be very late on tuesday night. there will be a series of amendments. maybe she will be holding out from the letter byjean—claude juncker which was played out as being giving her away to reconcile a lot of discontents with the deal that there would be a trade deal with the eu in place as soon trade deal with the eu in place as soon as trade deal with the eu in place as soon as 2020, so that any time spent in the customs union would be temporarily, which showed a lay a great many fears. suddenly that was a great hope this morning. all these stories are downplaying any intervention from jean—claude juncker. there is speculation that these letters might come on sunday. that is right. in the mail on sunday hopes are failing for significant assurances from brussels over the
10:45 pm
hated northern ireland backstop. there you go. in the sunday telegraph, the tory backbencher is talking about trying to get an amendment on the withdrawal agreement to allow the backstop to finish. the details of the backstop we have tried to get our heads around... theresa may has been trying to do without all last year and make no progress on it. do you think the eu could say, are likely to say, it with massively swing things? no. they're not going to give any ground on the backstop. they have negotiated and they regard keeping an open border in ireland as absolutely essential and that has to bea absolutely essential and that has to be a long—term commitment. you cannotjust say be a long—term commitment. you cannot just say we will do it for a few years and then review the situation. in the observer, if the vote does go... let me just do the
10:46 pm
mail on sunday, i am just being reminded by our director or producer, one of them. the secret plot to kill brexit byjohn birkhead. this is what you are talking about earlier. -- bercow. there is huge anger at the speaker for allowing the government defeat. there is a plot by remainer mps to change parliamentary rules and the feeling among tories and the government in particular that the speaker would be on their side. and the possible appearance by david davies and dominic raab together? kiss and make up and they are going to present a united front. this story has so many different strands in it, some of which is really quite delicious. sue pollard confronted
10:47 pm
mrs may at a downing drinks party over her brexit strategy. but we do not know her view over it. for the people subbing the stories that go on the front, there have been so many different plots and different stories and different people who are seen stories and different people who are seen to be implicated in plots that these stories contain many which things i would encourage everybody to read to the end at times. can i mentioned the observer and the independent? that is not very surprising. it is what you would expect the opposition to do. the
10:48 pm
interesting question is when they will do it. there is a suggestion that they will do it on tuesday night. and was saying there will be a lot of votes on amendments before the actual vote. that could be quite late at night. it could be laid tonight thatjeremy corbyn gets up and moves a vote of no—confidence. any chance that labour would win that? as long as the government cannot get its deal through they will support the government. he is forced to back a second referendum which she has been lukewarm about.|j get which she has been lukewarm about.” get the impression this is what people thinkjeremy corbyn should do. i do not think he has any intention of so doing. he is pursuing the napoleonic strategy. when you see your enemy making mistakes you let them make mistakes
10:49 pm
and you do not intervene. i think that he will wait for the days after the vote rather than doing anything on tuesday. about whether he would have to come back in three days. if we get to a second vote, it is interesting the independent have this poll about getting britain to vote in a second referendum. that is the question that jeremy corbyn has two face after he has tried to bring the government down and failed to get the general election. he has stood aside the position of the labour party over this. what is the likelihood? i think we should start to treat this with some seriousness. ido to treat this with some seriousness. i do not know if everybody saw my paper in the times this morning. we we re paper in the times this morning. we were talking about some of the
10:50 pm
biggest men in the city. a big powerful hedge and team manager, he supported brexit. he and his fellow leaders now believe we will not leave the eu. that supposes that the second vote, whatever shape it ta kes, second vote, whatever shape it takes, is more likely than before. two was three minutes left. there is not much else on the front pages but one is in the sunday telegraph extra. a staggering thought that if you give old people in hospital, 4000 people die within a month of being admitted for... we have elderly, frail people in hospital and we have not been feeding them properly. astonishing that something as simple as that... apparently they are not eating alone and they
10:51 pm
enjoyed it so much. the cost to the nhs is actually... there is a cost saving involved because they recover better, their hips mend earlier and they are out of hospital. olivia colman is becoming a national darling, isn't she? there is a picture of her and some of her co—sta rs picture of her and some of her co—stars from the cambridge footlig hts co—stars from the cambridge footlights class of 1994 in the mail on sunday. a number of them are doing pretty well for themselves. and astonishingly talented hunch. tristan hunt was once going to be the next labour prime minister. an incredibly young robert whereby. and olivia colman just looking almost exactly the same with that gorgeous smile that has won the hearts of donations. very good, page three. if
10:52 pm
