if‘ai‘it he will not be prosecuted over that incident. onto today. this was the queen arriving as you say to celebrate the centenary of the uk's intelligence agency, gchq. it was here forjust intelligence agency, gchq. it was here for just two years, back intelligence agency, gchq. it was here forjust two years, back in 1919 is when it opened, a key plank of britain's intelligence service over the years. it then moved to bletchley park which proved so crucial during the second world war, and when the queen was inside, she was inside for about an hour, one of the people she met was 92—year—old ruth born, one of those who cracked the enigma code. the queen is well used unveiling plaques. for anyone who wants to come and see this, as you would expect from gchq, it's not just the words there, there's also a hidden code, so if you want to come here and read what it says, jenna upon your morse code! back to you. tributes have been paid to the former manchester united youth coach eric harrison, who's died aged 81. he played a key role in the careers of david beckham, paul scholes and ryan giggs, who collectively became known as the class of ‘92. they went on to win countless

trophies for united's senior team under sir alex ferguson. sir alex said eric harrison was a natural teacher, and ultimately one of the greatest coaches of our time. and david beckham said he won't forget the life lessons eric harrison taught him. time for a look at the weather. here's helen willetts. it's a very quiet, zettel spell of weather at the moment that we enjoy, but not without its problems, it was frosty for some of us this morning. some beautiful shots. —3 the temperature fell to overnight so at the chilly, the fog clearly caused some issues this morning and it may well do this evening and overnight. now, temperatures are already at 15 degrees in ceredigion in the west of wales. it's such a stark contrast, _3’ wales. it's such a stark contrast, —3, up to 15 degrees, you often get it at this time of year when the sun

strengthens. i pressure as the dominant feature, hence the benign weather, keeping weather fronts at bay. what you see on the satellite picture is a lot of sunshine and this is fair weather clouds for the most part. the grizzlies easing away. the cloud is slipping northwards, so for most of us for the rest of the day an abundance of sunshine and its mild as well, temperatures generally around 10-15dc. it temperatures generally around 10—15dc. it drops away quickly overnight, it will be a cold night for scotland and northern ireland because there will be less cloud here. some wind to keep the fog at bay, but fog else well become an issue. although we have high pressure still with us tomorrow morning, dominating the weather, the wind picking up in the west and with lighter winds in southern and eastern areas there will be a few issues if you are travelling particularly on the faster routes, maybe some issues at the airports as well. it's certainly worth keeping an eye on your forecast and listening to the bbc local weather. tomorrow, the fog was the main issue. it's chilly first thing but temperatures will leap up in the

strengthening sunshine. the difference tomorrow, it's a bit more cloud around in the north. for england and wales, as today, temperatures in the mid teens, really responding to the sunshine and barely any cloud in the sky. it may be a little hazy following the morning mist and fog, further north later, some cloud around and possibly some rain. not quite as beautifully sunny yesterday, but it should hang on in many central and eastern areas. again, temperatures should be well above where they should be well above where they should be well above where they should be for this time of year which is around 7—9dc. certainly well above that, so it will feel very pleasant if you are out and about and the good news is it should last until the weekend, mostly mild and dry weather, there's always the fly in the ointment with british weather. saturday brings the risk of more cloud to bring some patchy rain, very patchy for scotland because it's coming into our high however, still mild vostok on sunday there's the chance the weather front will make a little bit further progress eastwards but it's still going to be a weak affair.

good afternoon, i'm will perry with your latest sports news. west indies fast bowler shannon gabriel has revealed exactly what he said to england captain joe root, which led to him being banned for the first four one day internationals. gabriel has admitted asking root, if he likes boys, and says he's "deeply sorry" for his comments. this comes after root, was heard on a microphone telling gabriel, "there's nothing wrong with being gay", and not to use it as an insult. in a statement, gabriel says... "a great coach and a great man" is how eric cantona has described

former manchester united youth team coach eric harrison, who's died at the age of 81. he's credited with developing the talents of manchester united's class of ‘92, including david beckham, paul scholes and the neville brothers, as well as leading united to fa youth cup victories in 1992 and 1995. he's also been praised for his ability to "make good human beings" out of young players. he was our second father, he was the one that took us from the age of 1a and delivered us to the first team ready. i think it's probably disrespectful just to talk about the class of ‘92 because i think his biggest achievement was all those other players that he brought through with equal ability that

prepared them for life, not just for manchester united. when you talk about eric harrison, he didn'tjust prepare you really for a life in football, which was a big part, he prepared you to succeed in life through the values he instilled into you. there have been so many tributes to harrison already on social media, with gary neville tweeting that he's lost his mentor, saying he and other manchetser united players "owe him everything". david beckham posted on instagram, saying that he can still hear harrison yelling, "no more hollywood passes" at him in training and alex ferguson has released a statement claiming that "eric's contribution to football, and notjust manchester united, was incredible." mauricio pochettino has called his tottenham side heroes after their 3—0 champions league win over borussia dortmund. heung min son scored the opener at wembley — a good omen as spurs have won every time he's hit the back of the net this season. jan vertongen added a second before fernando llorente headed the third late on to give pochettino‘s side a big advantage ahead of the second leg over in germany. maria sharapova says she's "working

through some painful days", after pulling out of indian wells with a shoulder injury. the five—time grand slam champion has now withdrawn or retired from two of the three events she's played in since september's us open. sharapova says she's managing the pain day—by—day. ronnie o'sullivan is in action in the third round of the welsh open in cardiff... these are live pictures. the rocket is up against world number 71 alexander ursenbacher of switzerland and o'sullivan has already recorded the 994th century of his career. live coverage on the red button and bbc sport website right now. that's all the sport for now. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website. including news of a payoff forjose mourinho of £19.6 million. we will see you shortly. many thanks.

it's been a year since a gunman opened fire at a high school in parkland, florida killing 17 people, injuring another 17. people in the community are still living with physical and emotional reminders of what happened. this particular shooting sparked passionate cries for stricter gun controls in america. but to date, there has not been any meaningful change. the bbc s samira hussain reports from parkland, florida. good morning, have a great day, guys. a typical morning walk to school done by thousands across the country. but this is different. these kids go to marjory stoneman douglas, a name that will forever conjure images from this day. students fleeing for safety as gunmen armed with a semiautomatic rifle opened fire. this is the first one. anthony was shot five times. using his own body as a shield, he prevented the gunman from entering the classroom. he saved up to 20 kids, but, to this day, when he tries to sleep, he is taken right back

to the shooting. i never sleep. i can't sleep. i dream a lot of that day. the same things that i see that i see in my head. this is the building where the shooting happened. it can't be torn down. it's actually been preserved as evidence for the gunman‘s trial, a trial that has not even started yet. and so it stands like a constant concrete reminder of what happened that day. i love you with all my heart. i am telling you right now, i love you. i know what you did today... that is the accused gunmen, nikolas cruz, in a green hospital gown, being comforted by his younger brother zachary. this police video was taken just hours after the shooting. you told him you loved him more than once. only because i'm his brother and, you know, the whole world is going to give him hate.

why douai have to give him eight? are you angry at him? yes. what makes you angry? that he did what he did. he had no reason. i don't know. the shooting sparked a movement. they channelled their anger through activism, taking to the streets of washington, dc by the thousands, demanding stricter gun control laws. for those students, this song became their anthem. # we can hug a little tighter...# i think through the actions that we have seen with our classmates, they have such a big audience and live audience that not only we re they heard, they inspired other people to get up and be heard, as well. i can't change what happened in the past. ijust need to make sure it doesn't happen again in the future.

# you, you threw my city away.# but, one year on, victims of this mass shooting are still recovering and, one year on, federal gun—control laws have not changed. # we will shine.# samira hussain, parkland, florida. prince philip will not face prosecution over his collision with another car in norfolk last month. the crown prosecution services says it isn't in the public interest after the 97—year—old surrendered his license. the duke of edinburgh's land rover freelander collided with another vehicle in norfolk last month. he later apologised to the occupants of the other car — two women and a baby. let's return now to news that nhs england is encouraging people to have their blood pressure and cholesterol levels checked, in a bid to reduce the number of heart attacks, strokes and dementia cases. helen donovan is the professional lead for public health at the royal college of nursing — she told my colleague anita mcveigh why health checks are so important. it is absolutely about prevention

and raising awareness of making people aware they may have high blood pressure. that sounds sort of odd because you think you would you had high blood pressure, but people walk around with high blood pressure and do not know about it. so these checks are making that accessability to testing really obvious to people. and helping them to do that. people are invited between the ages of a0 and 7a to go along for health mots at their gp. that is once every five years. how many actually go along to those? not enough, essentially. that is what we need to challenge and we need to make these things more accessible to people. one of the things, the ambition is making other options available, whether that's in supermarkets, sports centres, in local high streets, so people can have their pressure checked there for example, and then

be directed to other services. how much does that outreach happen now? it does happen and there are pockets around the country where there are good examples but what we are calling for today is to push for a whole systems approach so everyone is working together to first of all raise awareness with the public that they should be calling for these and having these checks, but also amongst all health professionals. and it is using other opportunities, so if you're seeing somebody for something else to make sure you have not missed the opportunity to check their blood pressure, or to check for af which is essentially high pulse and rapid pulse rate. some people might not like going to the doctor if they have not got an appointment to something else, which might raise their blood pressure if they feel uncomfortable with doctors visits. that is a really good point. we all get appointments

to go for a screening check, for example, and we might put it down and think, "i will deal with that another time." again, it is having lots of opportunities and notjust at the doctor's surgery. talk to me more about how it would work in practice in terms of costs, getting staff with nurses from various gp surgeries in a particular area to come to a supermarket or leisure centre and do that. how would it work? it does not necessarily need to be health care professionals doing the blood pressure and af checks. but we need ongoing services. from a nursing point of view, from my point, as professional lead, it is having resources that people can be directed to, because actually talking to people about changing their lifestyle, increasing their physical activity, losing weight, stopping smoking, they do take skills, behaviour change takes skills to implement. so there is obviously an ongoing worry about having enough qualified

skilled nurses to be able to do that but also other health care professionals, so pharmacists are a good point of contact for a lot of people. so it's about all of us and a system approach. and this could obviously make a big difference if you catch people in time. yes, the aim in the long—term is to prevent 150,000 cases of cardiovascular disease including heart attacks and strokes. in india, toxic alcohol has claimed the lives of dozens of people in the last few weeks. the product is often cheap, and available even in places where alcohol is outlawed, but as sangita myska reports, its effects can be deadly. crying. she is inconsolable after the sudden death of her husband.

translation: even went to twice and said he was losing consciousness. he could not see anything and then he died —— he vomited twice. could not see anything and then he died -- he vomited twice. villages in this border region are in a state of shock that this is not the only death from toxic alcohol. at this hospital, more have been admitted for treatment and many have gone blind. translation: i have a lot of difficulty speaking. i cannot see anything. iam difficulty speaking. i cannot see anything. i am not able to speak clearly. in just anything. i am not able to speak clearly. injust one anything. i am not able to speak clearly. in just one weekend, dozens of patients were treated here. translation: this toxic alcohol acts immediately after mixing with the blood and when it has lots of ethanol, it hits the brain, liver, kidneys and the optic nerve, and thatis kidneys and the optic nerve, and that is what causes blindness. the government says it is ready to offer the families of those killed up to

$2000 in compensation. police have seized thousands of liquors of bootleg liquor in this area alone. but it remains available as long as those who supply illegal alcohol continue to make it. in a moment we'll have all the business news, but first the headlines on bbc news. shamima begum — one of three schoolgirls who left london in 2015 to join the islamic state group, says she wants to return to the uk so her unborn baby can be looked after. the prime minister faces another rebellion on brexit in parliament as mps debate the next steps in the process. the duke of edinburgh will face no further action over his collision with another car near sandringham last month. i'm jamie robertson with the business news. the european aircraft manufacturer airbus pulls the plug on its superjumbo. the last deliveries of the world's largest passenger aircraft, the a380, which costjust under

£20 billion pounds to develop, will be made in 2021. from hero to zero. zero growth that is. germany's economy just about avoided falling into recession during the final three months of last year. a weaker auto industry and a slowdown in global growth are being blamed. more on that shortly. patisserie valerie's parent firm is bought out of administration for £13 million after an alleged fraud tipped it to collapse last month. the new owners, causeway capital, who will also include members of the management team have said they hoped to keep all 96 patisserie valerie sites open. there is hope most of those still employed by the bakery chain will get to keep theirjobs. the german economy stalled in the final quarter of last year, but managed to stay out of escaping recession. there's no single reason but global trade disputes, brexit,

a slow down in the international car industry and even low water levels, particularly in the rhine affecting growth by holding back movement of some goods. but last year growth rate was the country's weakest growth in five years. it's forecast to shrink further to 1% this year. let's talk to vicky pryce, chief economist at the centre for economics and business research. looking at all those factors, any one particular you think is really important amongst all the things facing germany at the moment? industrial production. we've seen consecutive full for a number of months now. the whole of 2018 was pretty bad for germany, manufacturing is significant for that country, it's double the size about of what it is as a percentage of gdp for the uk, and a lot of it is represented by car production. there is been a serious issue in

relation to emissions, there have been you control so after the emissions scandal some time ago, europe has now put on new controls and regulations on it. we see already knew, registration is in germany going down very significantly. the trouble is, this is happening not just significantly. the trouble is, this is happening notjust in germany but around the world, particularly in china where a lot of german exports 90, china where a lot of german exports go, where we have seen for the first time in many years, a full in actual car sales in that country. let's talk a bit about brexit, that's what we always talk about about brexit, rather than the uk, from germany plus what the point of view. how bad could it be for the german economy and industry? they are worried, there is no doubt. they export a lot of cars but we are an important part of cars but we are an important part of the manufacturing export more generally, notjust cars, and generally, notjust cars, and generally businesses in germany have been worried, talking about it, trying to convince both sides to come to an agreement. but what we

also know of course is that they will in the end except the importance of the single market and customs union, in other words they won't make too much fuss but they have been in any case campaigning as much as they possibly can to ensure there is an open border still. between the uk and germany, because we are a very significant export market for them. one of the interesting things about the figures was what most of the figures we painted were pretty gloomy about investment, jobs, or looking pretty strong, why is that? i think it is consumer demand and investor demand for wages are going up, there is a skill shortage serious in germany, which is an issue for them, that is pushing wages up. remember only recently germany has actually imposed a minimum wage so for a large part of the population, wages have gone up. and of course inflation is coming down, and that is very helpful generally in terms of encouraging spending on the

domestic economy, and the government has helped well in terms of extra spending, domestic infrastructure, something they haven't done for a long time before, so a lot of domestic practice keep it going and they hope the issue of cars will tell a mad scene and industrial production. rising again. —— will turnaround soon. and some other stories in the news today. the dutch government sees brexit not as the elephant in the room but as a giant muppet—style monster lying on a desk. that is the picture tweeted by foreign minister stef blok, with the warning, "make sure brexit doesn't sit — or lie — in your way". there is a picture of it. his name is brexit. there is a link to an official website where dutch firms can see the potential impact of brexit on their business. a sense of humour which might be lacking here. hmrc is hoping that valentine's day will remind couples to apply for the marriage allowance. this lets lower—income workers transfer just under £1,200

of their personal allowance to their husband, wife or civil partner if their income is higher. an estimated 700,000 couples who are eligible for the tax break have not claimed. and the well—known maker of denim jeans levi strauss is going to list on the new york stock exchange, raising about £470 million pounds to invest in india, china and brazil. the company last listed in 1971 but the family took it private again in 1985. levi sells just under £4.5 billion of products a year. a quick look the markets, rather than at levi jeans. i'm told they're not going to work. the ftse is up a little bit. we will be able to have a look at these figures in about an hour's time. back to you. based at london's coliseum, the english national opera prides itself on being first timerfriendly.

the operas are sung in english and 500 tickets for each performance costjust £20. opera newbie carol kirkwood went to meet the cast and experience puccini's la boheme to find out more. here i am at the coliseum, home to the english national opera. tonight's performances la boheme by the composer puccini. but before it starts, i'm going to go backstage and meet some of the cast. # i love you completely...# i think it's a great one to start with, it's got a lovely story that is something that people can relate to, it's about love and relationships. i would say it's a very accessible opera, obviously, we are the english national opera, i don't know weather you are aware that everything is in english here. so you'll be able to, hopefully, if we articulate enough, be able to understand us completely

and well, you're just in for a treat. do you get nervous before performing? before opening night, yeah. i would not wish opening night nerves on anyone! the coliseum is the largest theatre in london's west end and it's the job of artistic director daniel green worth to fill the 2,359 seats here. you're hoping to do that, daniel, with first timers like me but how are you going to do it? well, its about the spectrum of work, i love to say something for everybody. if you love a huge commercial musical, you will love la boheme. if you love sumptuous cinematic imagery and film score music, you're going to love phillip glass. breaking down the barriers to opera is the here, to help people it's understand it's not about what you wear, the ticket prices are affordable, we have 500 tickets for every singer performance for 20 quid, cheaper than a movie in leicester square.

the company in an effort to increase diversity has just announced they're adding four more singers from black, asian and mixed ethnic backgrounds to their chorus, currently there is only one. i think if there are more parents within the ethnic minorities taking an interest and send their children to music lessons, then we might have an influx of more ethnic minorities involved in the arts, because i think those that i know who are doing very well, their parents insisted on them doing lessons. i think that is probably where we need to start. not long now until showtime. the orchestra are tuning their instruments. natalia and nicholas are warming up. stuart, the ceo of english national opera, i can't wait, this sounds fabulous. it's going to be good, i think. i think you'll be crying by the end.

it's about to start. oh, my goodness! that was brilliant! do you know, i didn't know if i would like something that was pure singing. but it was amazing! and notjust the singing to acting, it was moving, it made you laugh, it made you cry, it made you feel good. it was brilliant! i went to see that as well and also bought it was brilliant. now it's time for a look at the weather with helen willets hello, despite the cold and frosty site this morning with the fog, the day turned into a pleasant one for many.

this is how the morning started and then of course these unsung getting stronger, burning through much of the cloud. we had quite a bit hanging ranfor the cloud. we had quite a bit hanging ran for scotland and northern ireland but basically it will be a fine evening & night, which again means that despite some breeze, we will see the fog returning again, especially in central and eastern parts of the uk and the frost will return as well. not a hard frost, temperatures only down to about freezing but 2—3d below in real macro parts away from the north—west, in the north—west, bringing wild andy may will hold off for most the dark exec western isles. —— de rain will hold off for most. temperatures well above where they are usually this time of year, 13—14. it stays mostly dry, very promising for this weekend. hello, you're watching afternoon live, i'm simon mccoy. today at 2. a british schoolgirl who went to syria to join the islamic state group wants to return home
