how's that for getting stuck in? a torrid ten minutes followed for arsenal. this could get very embarrassing, very quickly. but then city left laurent koscielny unmarked from a corner and arsenal were right back in it. nerves were starting to jangle, but a classy team move saw sterling's perfect pass present aguero with a tap in. no chance of missing from there. the argentinian was on a hat—trick, but it would be a controversial one. was he given a helping hand? as arsenal protested, aguero celebrated. city were making it look rather easy, showing they have the bottle for a title fight. there's always room for improvement, though, when your manager is a perfectionist. no need for the mood, pep. 3—1 the final score with a standing ovation for a hat—trick hero. over to you, liverpool. in the earlier game, manchester united were looking to keep their momentum under ole gunnar solskjaer. paul pogba has looked like a man reborn lately. this pass, a gift for local

favourite marcus rashford. leicester had enough chances to at least equalise but that goal, on rashford's 100th league appearance for united, saw them overtake arsenal to go fifth. that's now ten unbeaten for ole. the race for the top four, seemingly as exciting as the race for the title. natalie pirks, bbc news. celtic are six points clear at the top of the scottish premiership after a 2—0 win over stjohnstone. timothy weah, son of george, the former world player of the year, now president of liberia, scored celtic‘s winner after coming on as a substitute. women's fa cup holders chelsea are through to the fifth round of the competition after a 2—0 win over everton. last year's beaten finalists, arsenal, will be in the fifth round draw, as will championship sides manchester united and tottenham. after a year away from the sport, the two time olympic medallist tom daley has won the men's

10:38 pm
difference in the feel of our weather as we head through the coming week. it will turn milder. as we look at the atlantic for weather systems and start to draw in milder air. many spots will see temperatures recover dramatically, but it will not be plain sailing, with spells of rain and at times it be windy. many areas noticing the difference in the temperatures first thing on monday. many spots frost free but away from scotland, the highland seeing more snow overnight. it will be colder there, and windy also. particularly on the western coast, and exposed parts could have gusts of 45 mph, but the winds release is the day goes on. much of the rain clearing to the east on monday. rain to the south and east and we will hang on to that for much of the day, but it is all about the temperatures. back into double figures in the south and west. a brief lull in proceedings on monday night into tuesday, between two
10:39 pm
micro—low pressure systems. we have light winds, and a recipe for a widespread frost. there will still be cloud down towards the south—east which may linger through the night and we will see the next weather system preaching to the far south and west of cornwall. dense fog for southern england, but away from that it looks like we are expecting frost. it will not be as cold as it has been on recent nights. early morning sunshine around first thing on tuesday morning. dense fog patches should lift quickly as the winds strength and, as the cloud increases and we start to see outbreaks of rain in the far south and west. temperatures not doing badly, double figures are high single figures the further north you are. tuesday night into wednesday, low pressure in the north and west, feeding in these weather fronts. this cold front may linger longer in the south and east through wednesday. away from that, fine,
10:40 pm
dry, bright weather, some showers make feeding in on the south—westerly breeze, which may be wintry over scotland, but it will be mailed for most places. into thursday and it is a case of spot the difference. this low pressure is feeding in the weather fronts. thursday will be decent for many areas on thursday. lengthy spells of sunshine, quite breezy and some showers which could be heavy in south wales in the south—west, the odd rumble of thunder possible, and it might not be quite as mild as on wednesday. there will be times during the week when it is cooler but we are never far away from the next weather system bringing in milder conditions again. that is the case as we head 35 —— three friday. the rain will start to make inroads. many areas seeing temperatures above average for the time of year. into
10:41 pm
the weekend, not much changes. low pressure towards the north and west, and we will see something cooler work its way and for a time as we head through sunday into monday, but it looks like high pressure starts to build from the south. if that happens, it will be drier in the south and the wet and windy weather will be in the north. for many areas, temperatures will recover so it should remain fairly mild. hello. welcome to look add to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me arejohn rentoul, chief political commentator at the independent, and rachel cunliffe, comment and features editor at city am. welcome to you both. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. the daily mail has a photograph of the footballer emiliano sala, following the news that the wreckage of the plane he and pilot david ibbotson were travelling in has been found. its main story is about plans to use smart energy meters to help monitor dementia patients.
10:42 pm
the daily express says that theresa may will bring key tory brexiteers and remainers together today for crisis talks to thrash out a solution to the brexit deadlock. the metro reports that the liberal democrat leader sir vince cable says a "significant" number of labour and tory mps are plotting to desert their parties and join with him in an attempt to halt brexit. the financial times reports on comments from the business secretary that nissan 5 decision on comments from the business at its sunderland plant is a warning sign of the damage that could be wrought on the car sector by a no—deal brexit. the guardian's lead story is about campaigners calling on the government to intervene urgently over the cost of a cystic fibrosis drug. the 'i" has the same story. it says children are being denied a life—extending drug after the manufacturer set the price at £105,000 per patient per year. and the daily telegraph has a call
10:43 pm
from the the chief secretary from the chief secretary to the treasury, liz truss, for women to be less squeamish about making money. lots for us to discuss, but let's start with the very sad news on the front of the daily mail. it has broken this evening, the wreckage from the plane which disappeared with the footballer ben mike, and the pilot, dave ibbotson on board. it has been found in the english channel. —— with the footballer emiliano sala. you feel for the families. you do, and you can understand why they have wanted to raise this amount of money to try to find the plane. they want to know what happened. but there is nothing much more that you can say about it, really. it is very sad, but it is possibly the right thing that they
10:44 pm
have been able to find it. that is the point, that the research that found the wreckage was privately funded by the family. by the online community, the official search, sadly, had to finish on thursday, when they said there was no hope of finding it but they have since found it. an online appeal raised £324,000 in orderto find it. an online appeal raised £324,000 in order to find answers to what has beena in order to find answers to what has been a tragic situation. in order to find answers to what has been a tragic situationli in order to find answers to what has been a tragic situation. i think we will presumably get more details on it tomorrow. the daily mail pots main story is an arresting headline, dementia patients to be tracked by smart meters. how this work the idea is that these smart meter devices will send data to the families and carers of elderly patients with dementia showing that they have switched lights on, turn they have switched lights on, turn the kettle on, they are going about their daily routine as normal and if
10:45 pm
something changes they can alert the family that they need to go over there. so the idea is that we are using smart technology, the so—called internet of things to keep people living independently for longer. there are concerns about data and data protection and too busy issues, but it is an example of this sort of technology being used for something actually useful such as solving this social care crisis. it raises questions of privacy. as solving this social care crisis. it raises questions of privacym seems like a technology looking for an excuse seems like a technology looking for an excuse to justify itself. the smart meter roll—out is a long way behind schedule because people are resista nt to behind schedule because people are resistant to having this kind of technology in their homes. this looks like a way of trying to justify the fact that the government and the companies actually want to get these smart meters in so that they can track people'senergy use more closely. this isjust the start of the internet of things, the next
10:46 pm
stage is carbon dioxide monitors that will be able to tell which room somebody is in and are they are breeding normally and that is the level of data we are going to be able to get in the future. setting aside privacy issues, could this work is an idea in terms of helping people stay on in their own homes? we have an ageing population, we know that dementia is an issue for the nhs, social services and local councils and families and this enables them to send help where it is needed when it is needed and that will spread resources to when they can have the most impact. let's move onto brexit, and the express. is there a brexit story in the papers?! according to the express, crunch summit to say brexit. i have to confess to a slight sense of deja vu
10:47 pm
on this! is this serious? it is on the front page of the independent even though it is now online only but it is on our front page as well, because the prime minister has put out an announcement tonight that she's going to get this group of backbench conservative mps, both leavers and remainers, two levers and three —— two remain as, you and you can see that she's trying to get the leavers to come up with imaginative solutions that can get through the commons, and she wants them to, in essence, the owner failure of their attempts to make it work, because they say they want an alternative to the irish backstop, andi alternative to the irish backstop, and i suspect, she suspects, they will not be able to find one. do we
10:48 pm
know who they are? owen paterson, then damian green and nicky morgan, andl then damian green and nicky morgan, and i think john then damian green and nicky morgan, and i thinkjohn is right, not in the cabinet, but there was a sense of, you didn't like what we came up with, come up with something better that the eu will actually agree to, because you have the irish prime minister today saying no to all of these suggestions that are on the table at the moment. the eu is showing no sign of moving at all. they did wobble rather badly last week. the chief negotiator michel barnier suddenly started talking about what would happen if there was about what would happen if there was a no—deal brexit. he said we wouldn't have a hard border in ireland after all, then started talking about magic technology, in exactly the way that the hard brexiters have been talking that the eu used to pour scorn on. the eu may be, ireland certainly isn't, the
10:49 pm
irish prime minister, and i think that the eu will back the member that the eu will back the member that are staying in a club rather than the one that is leaving. you are absolutely right. you mentioned no—deal brexit, john. the lead story in the ft is about nissan, the nissan retreat is a warning sign of the no—deal brexit damage. this is the no—deal brexit damage. this is the car—maker who has reversed its pledge to make this new suv in sunderland. it will now be made in japan. despite that headline, it is worth mentioning that nissan mentioned brexit but they don't point the main finger at it. they say it is because of the decline in the demand for diesel cars because people have realised that diesel isn't a magic, green technology we thought it was two decades ago. it isa thought it was two decades ago. it is a rather ambiguous story. the financial times is very anti—brexit. greg clark the business secretary, who is the one who's telling theresa
10:50 pm
may this is also very anti—brexit. so, he is trying to use the nissan decision to make a point about a no—deal brexit, but the decision has come before whether we know there's a deal or not, so it can't actually be attributed to the dangers of a no—deal brexit. be attributed to the dangers of a no-deal brexit. and can you enlighten us as to why a no—deal brexit would be one of the issues? take us back —— it takes six weeks to ship cars from the uk to asian markets like south korea and japan and if they don't know whether they're going to have to impose tariffs when they arrive in the case of extreme no—deal brexit they would potentially have to do that and greg clark says how can you commit your goods to the high seas without knowing the parrots on which they will be received? and that definitely is an issue —— knowing the tarriffs they will be subjected.
10:51 pm
and the other issues that they are facing a potentially a lot worse. the timing is in great for theresa may. symbolically doesn't look good. especially as nissan decided to build these cars in sunderland after the referendum. and theresa may then said it was a great vote of confidence in the uk, and it showed that brexit wouldn't damage our industrial base. and for them to go back on that is obviously an embarrassment for her. lets me the daily telegraph, this is lynne truss who has given an interview to the telegraph long—running a women in business campaign. why is the chief secretary to the treasury saying this? she is lynne truss and this is what she does. it is a strange headline because she's talking about female run start—ups and companies and pointing out that for every £1
10:52 pm
of venture capital investment less thanip of venture capital investment less than 1p goes towards all—female teams. start—ups with one woman on the team are less likely to get funding. 89% of funding went to start—ups without a single woman involved in 2017 so there's a real issue about getting women into business and she says one of the problems is there is a culture of british people thinking that profit isa dirty british people thinking that profit is a dirty word, and that money is a dirty word and that that should not be the primary driver of business, and she says that is putting off investment. an interesting story behind quite a strange headline. investment. an interesting story behind quite a strange headlinelj would behind quite a strange headline.” would agree. liz truss is very capable of provoking a debate. there is an interesting question of why women tend not to push themselves forward in business as much as men do. obviously not necessarily that women think that profit is a bad thing and men think it is a good
10:53 pm
thing and men think it is a good thing because as rachel says, most british people are bit sceptical about profit and the profit motive. i remember margaret thatcher tried to get us to believe that profit wasn't a dirty word. liz truss is channelling margaret thatcher, here. i'm sure that plenty of female businesswomen would say that they do not see profit as vulgar, but we will pass on finally to the express again, why sun, fun sex and cash are a lwa ys again, why sun, fun sex and cash are always in short supply. the number one thing that we long for is sleep. it should not come as a surprise to anyone. two is holidays, three is disposable income, number five anyone. two is holidays, three is disposable income, numberfive is sunlight, which is interesting. we spent too much time in the dark and in artificial light, and number six
10:54 pm
is sex, how sad and british is that? extraordinary. the thing about the number one, sleep, is that it is sort of under your control. it is not under my control. they are to a degree apart from sunlight. and disposable income. it is interesting that we feel we are not getting enough sleep more than we feel that we are not getting enough sex! that's it for the papers this hour. join us again at 11:30pm for another look at the papers. began picked that conversation up again. —— we can pick that conversation. next on bbc news nick miller has the weather. hello, after a cold weekend there's only been a gradual thaw if you've got snow on the ground. that becomes more rapid as we go through the week. there won't be much of this left by midweek, because temperatures are on the way
10:55 pm
up and we are going to see rain rather than snow. that said, we still have another spell of snow to come overnight in northern scotland. by the time it settled down tomorrow, we can see another 5—10 centimetres over about 150 metres or so, but most of us have rain spreading east overnight and after the cold of last night, it's reallyjust into northern scotland that we see temperatures struggling with that snow and the snow cover whereas elsewhere, temperatures are actually edging up a little as the night goes on. it's quite windy with the rain, though and around this area of low pressure, very gusty through parts of scotland as monday begins before the winds slowly ease as the low pressure pulls away. and by the start of the day, many of us are behind the rain and we get to see some sunshine, but that traily weather front hangs around towards the far south east into the afternoon before we clear the rain from kent. some cloud hanging on across east anglia and south east england, whereas elsewhere, it's sunny spells, you may catch a shower, sleet and snow fizzling out in northern scotland, brightening up a little bit for some of us here. the temperatures, back to or perhaps even a little above normal for the time of year
10:56 pm
and that is where they are going to stay as the week goes on. but, with the winds easing under clear skies, monday night brings the last widespread frost for a whilejust as the week goes on. there will be pockets of frost here and there. we may not get into frost in the far south of england, but it is across southern parts of england in particular most at risk of seeing some perhaps dense fog going into tuesday morning, but there could be some fog patches elsewhere, too. on tuesday, we see another atlantic weather system pushing outbreaks of rain, northwards, maybe not reaching north—east scotland until quite late in the day. the brisk south—westerly winds still bringing us this mild air. now, these weather fronts will try to clear on through, it looks like one will linger towards the south—east of england on wednesday into wednesday night as well with further outbreaks of rain. but for many of us as the week goes on, yes it is unsettled, but there will be several days of sunny spells or maybe just the chance of catching a shower. you be noticing these temperatures more of us are getting into double figures.
10:57 pm
that is the big change in the week ahead. milder, unsettled, sun, showers, often windy but mild south—westerlies. this is bbc news. i'm rebecca jones. the headlines at 11:00: wreckage from the plane carrying the missing cardiff city footballer emiliano sala and pilot david ibbotson has been found. the plane carrying the two men disappeared en route from nantes in france to cardiff and today's discovery follows a privately funded search operation. nissan reverses a plan to build a new 4x4 in the uk. the x—trail was to be made at its sunderland plant. the government says the decision‘s a disappointment. i worked hard in the workforce has worked hard to secure it and it a big blow to carmaking, to sunderland and to all of us to have lost it. the prime minister says she's determined to deliver brexit on schedule and will go back to brussels with new ideas.
