6:35 am
was scotland's worst ever international match, goalless draw with england. so it is its worst performance in its international playing history. they have been a few bad nights for scotland over the years, costa rica, peru, iran, barrow islands, this is right up there, kazakhstan. in fact, a place thatis there, kazakhstan. in fact, a place that is changing its name from almaty to nursultan. —— its capital's name. this was one scotland were expected to win and needed to, with much hardesr tests against russia and belgium to come. kazakstan are ranked 77 places below them in the world rankings, but they managed to score twice inside the opening ten minutes. and things got worse after the break as they conceded a third. scotland play san marino on sunday, and they‘ll be looking for a much better performance. it is never finished it is neverfinished until it is never finished until it is finished. we bounce back from a poor performance in the israel game in

6:37 am
expressed comment". those are his words. his new national manager doesn‘t think the incident will affect rice‘s reception by england fans. i think people understand, most people will have children of those sorts of ages and people are still maturing at that age and you are in conversations with friends that you can get giddy and you can say things that maybe you do not even know enough about all you don‘t understand the context, so i think oui’ understand the context, so i think ourfans and our public understand the context, so i think our fans and our public will recognise that fact, i am sure. marcus rashford will miss both qualifiers with an ankle problem picked up against liverpool last month. he has been playing through the pain, but has returned to manchester united for treatment. chelsea ladies have won the first leg of their last eight champions league tie against paris saint germain.

6:42 am
eu leaders agreed a plan to delay brexit, meaning the uk will no longer be leaving the eu in seven days. theresa may now has an alternative timetable to work to, but still needs the support of parliament to vote her deal through. for the eu though, there are still other options on the table. the uk government will still have a choice of a deal, no deal, a long extension, or revoking article 50.|j hope we can all agree we are now at the moment of decision, and i will make every effort to ensure that we are able to leave with a deal and move our country forward. we are joined now by our brussels reporter adam fleming, who can explain what the feeling is in europe this morning. it has cleared up a bit since we last spoke, 20 minutes ago. i‘m not sure the whole story has and i will say, there was that in soil and social media yesterday. i know whether it sums it up, you tell me, may just waiting to whether it sums it up, you tell me, mayjust waiting to see what whether it sums it up, you tell me, may just waiting to see what they we re may just waiting to see what they were kind of say, shoved out in the
6:43 am
cold a bit? yeah, because how the brexit process has worked is that the 27 countries that are remaining in the eu discussed brexit without theresa may after they get a bit of an update from him, so she gets ushered out of the room. one of the things that happened yesterday is that she spoke and answered questions for about 90 minutes, which is one of the longest of those episodes we have had an offer she left the room, the other leaders we re left the room, the other leaders were really unimpressed. they were com pletely were really unimpressed. they were completely unconvinced that she had planned to win the vote next week and that she had a plan for what to do after that, and i think that is why emmanuel macron, the french president in particular, felt that the eu had to step in and create some options and create some space to avoid no deal. i also think, i mean yesterday i was talking about the prospect of there being an emergency summit next week with no—deal brexit being about 20 hours away and how it made me feel bit queasy and a bit ill, people took the mickey out of me for being a bit melodramatic but i think eu leaders
6:44 am
felt the same and we started thinking about this last night. they did not want to be in a situation when we came back to brussels next week, in a massive crisis and a crisis that was going to be half their problem. what they have done now is put the responsibility back on the uk to choose some options and find some solutions but you have got to remember, theresa may‘s planning is to put the deal to parliament next week and for it to go through and then the uk to leave just a bit later than planned, but it is very ha rd to later than planned, but it is very hard to find people who think the planner is actually going to happen and is going to work. and we're going to be explaining that throughout the morning, but what has the relationship in like between theresa may, the prime minister, and the rest of the eu leaders because there was, i am reading what some of laura kuenssberg, our political correspondent, was saying and she was saying that she was almost kind of evasive, that she was asked what
6:45 am
she was going to do her deal was not passed, and they said she was not really answering them. theresa may is having to be really cryptic because anything you say in that room with the other leaders then leg straightaway and could be ripped apart at home, so theresa may was just trying to protect a deal not create a huge political crisis last night when all the stuff is going on with the eu. donald tusk summed up really well in the clip you played, either the deal goes through as theresa may wants or by the 12th of april, the uk will have to decide doesn‘t want to pass the deal, doesn‘t want to pass the deal, doesn‘t want to leave with no deal, doesn‘t want to leave with no deal, doesn‘t want to long extension, which might mean, it will definitely mean having to take part in the european parliamentary elections, or doesn‘t want to have a massive reasoning and cancelled exit once and for all? those will be the full options that will be on the table on the second of april if the deal does not pass. get some sleep, adam. good to talk to you, we will see later.
6:46 am
imagine how tired our political correspondence are. someone on social media said chris mason looked about 12 when this process started, now he looks like a father of five. they are working hard. it will continue until next week. let's look at the weather with sarah. spring has sprung. it‘s one of those mixed days, isn‘t it. a little bit mixed down they are today. some dry and settled weather on the clouds — on the cards. here is the picture this morning, stapleton in bristol. a bit ofa morning, stapleton in bristol. a bit of a breezy field to the weather and we‘ve seen over recent days. there will be that rain and wind pushing
6:47 am
into the north—west. high pressure dominates the weather for many of us today. i pressure sitting across europe. this fairly active cold front moving on from the north—west. it is going to be pretty windy out there, particularly for parts of scotla nd there, particularly for parts of scotland and northern ireland. a0 mile—per—hour gusts but we could see gusts touching 70 miles per hour around exposed coasts and hills. for england and wales, it‘s looking largely dry. a few spells of sunshine, particularly for parts of eastern england and eastern wales as well. it will be turning colder here. looking for temperatures of about 13— 15 degrees. that frontal system pushes its way further south and overnight, it will tend to fizzle out so a few spots of drizzle band of cloud sitting across southern england, keeping temperatures up but a cold night elsewhere, frosty night to come and wintry showers packing in over the
6:48 am
higher ground of scotland. living through to saturday, high pressure dominating this time moving in from the atlantic but we‘ve also got this lingering cold front and that‘s going to be a little bit stubborn to clear away so it‘s going to bring quite a lot of cloud on saturday, anywhere south of the ma corridor. more sunshine further north. there will be a few of those wintry flurries are still over the high ground of scotland and it‘s not going to feel particularly warm out there so temperatures around 10— 12 degrees on saturday. into saturday night, the blue—collar is on the map shows us we got a really cold air mass around. still reasonably mild but a frosty night to come. gardeners take note, quite frosty on sunday morning. rain, sleet and hill snow showers for scotland and northern ireland. england and wales should be dry and more sunshine. after a cloudy start, it should dry up after a cloudy start, it should dry up in the south. temperature—wise, starting to nudge up as we get into sunday. 9— 13 degrees or so. it may
6:49 am
start off fairly chilly on monday but lots of dry and settled weather over the next week or so should see return to something more springlike. sunshine and mist and fog. h eavy m eta l heavy metal music plays. we are sort of celebrating heavy rock music. it‘s a sound that began 50 years ago in birmingham and has since reached every corner of the world. ido i do think it‘s worth celebrating because heavy metal bands across the globe, they love it. now heavy metal bands and fans from across the globe are gathering in london to celebrate a great british invention. david sillito reports on the first ever ‘world metal congress‘.
6:50 am
the world metal congress. it‘s the first ever global gathering of musicians from around the world to celebrate the good and the great of metal culture. it‘s been 50 years since the birth of heavy metal if you count the first record by black sabbath as ground zero. they came from birmingham. it began here in birmingham. black sabbath in 1969 and a culture that has now truly spread around the world and is today gathering in london. this is japan‘s endon and they‘re rather loud.
6:51 am
and they‘re not alone. there are now metal bands in over 1a0 countries. to my mind, i never expected heavy metal to come from places like botswana or indonesia or nepal or syria. all countries that will be represented this weekend. syria? absolutely. i am from the band maysaloon from syria, damascus. and he and his group are more than just one of a dozen metal bands in a city that has now endured eight years of conflict. tell me, what‘s it like playing a gig in damascus when the war is on? alright, i will tell you this. all the gigs we did in damascus,
6:52 am
mortar shells were dropping. at the place that was like, i won‘t even express how it is. so what explains the global appeal? well, volume is a part of it. heavy metal has to be loud. but it‘s also a way of life, a community. heavy metal gets a really bad rep. it revels in the imagery we are familiar with, firebreathing dragons and that sort of stuff, but it is welcoming and inclusive. we really are. but i think the fact that we are is what makes it such a wonderfulfamilial genre and culture because everyone is invited. so 50 years on, a celebration of the global appeal of a great british invention. # god bless you all.#

kfc is opening up its kitchens next weekend to show customers just how it makes its meals. it follows a tough year for the fast food chain. last february, it ran out of chicken after a botched handover to a new delivery firm. ben has been talking to the boss. cast your mind back to february last year when kfc — the fried chicken chain — ran out of chicken. it had switched to a new delivery firm and it all went wrong. 700 restaurants were forced to close. customers were angry, some rang the police. so what really went wrong? in the first tv interview she‘s
6:54 am
done since the crisis, the boss told me how that day redefined ‘a bad day‘ in the office. i‘m not going to lie, it was really, really tough. many things transpired to mean that we did run out of chicken. but it‘s really cemented in people‘s mind is that it‘s very fresh chicken and you can run out. ona fresh chicken and you can run out. on a normal day, if i had even five, ten stores closed, restaurants closed, that would be because for concern so to be in a situation were up concern so to be in a situation were up to 600,700 of our stores were closing, it totally redefined a bad day. you can‘t almost understand how awful that was for a business. we are nearly 30,000 people employed by kfc in some fashion across the uk, we we re kfc in some fashion across the uk, we were all working 20 out of 2a hours. we didn‘t see ourfamilies, we didn‘t come home but it‘s just needs, must. it was all hands to the pump by everyone. what do you want to see? what outcome would work for you? we can manage through anything,
6:55 am
any tariff set up, and any tax structure. any agreement, butjust not knowing what that agreement is causes us no way of not knowing what that agreement is causes us no way of planning, no certainty or anyone. all of our chicken on the bone and nearly all of our wings comes from the uk but a lot of our chips for example comes from the continent, comes from europe so we do have to think, what is actually feasible to stockpile in the uk? we like others on the high street will be ok for so long but if there is mass disruption for eve ryo ne there is mass disruption for everyone then at some point it does run out. i'm looking at your menu board and they‘ve all got calorie content on them and no—one is pretending that deep fried chicken is good for us but how important is nutrition in terms of what you are serving to people and what they are eating? you may remember that we sold grilled chicken for a while or that we sold pulled, slow cooked chicken but the shame if it is in some regards when you sell those products, people still come in and thereby the same fried chicken that
6:56 am
they always want and they‘ve been after. there is no silver bullet. have made a big public pledge that by 2025, we are taking out 20% of all calories in a kfc meal. that is an incredible amount. it amounts to 15 billion calories annually so a huge amount out of the uk‘s diet. but why does it take six years to do that? it is like any bold goal, you don‘t know how you are going to do it on the first day but what you are putting out there is a big public commitment that we will get there. putting out there is a big public commitment that we will get therelj imagine you make 99% of your money from selling meat, chicken but there isa from selling meat, chicken but there is a big move towards vegetarian, more vegan is a big move towards vegetarian, more vegan options. does it worry you? what are you doing about it? we wa nt you? what are you doing about it? we want people to be able to come here and enjoy meat some days and not meet other days. there is also to have stopped being worked on potentially vegetarian, vegan, it is top secret but we don‘t want to give
6:57 am
the game away but we have plans coming through. that was the uk boss. are you ok, charlie? plans coming through. that was the uk boss. are you 0k, charlie? is chicken sandwich went down the wrong way. charlie will recover. it was interesting talking to her because there are 70 parallels between the supply chain issue that they have clearly faced during the crisis last year of getting things to their stores on time so many of those warnings about briggs it, whether deliveries will come on time so she said they are stockpiling, the need to make sure they have enough staff and you might wonder why they need to import things like chicken from thailand. most comes from the uk. she said it‘s because we eat more chicken in this country and we produce. a simple equation. fascinating interview. it was not a chicken related copping fit. i'm just putting it out there.
6:58 am
good morning from bbc london news, good morning from bbc london news, i‘m sonja jessup. passengers using waterloo are facing major disruption this morning with no trains running in or out of one of britain‘s busiest stations. it‘s because of over—running engineering works and commuters are being warned it‘s expected to continue till midday. knives, knuckle—dusters and class a drugs have been found onboard a bus, carrying paris st germain fans to a women‘s champion‘s league game against chelsea. up to 50 psg fans were denied entry to the quarter—final tie at kingsmeadow in kingston. police were first called to reports of vandalism at the stadium then later to disorder at waterloo and wimbledon stations. one man onboard the coach has been arrested. today marks the second anniversary of the westminster terror attack but some survivors are unhappy there‘s no official commemoration. five people were killed after the attacker drove his car into crowds on westminster bridge and then stabbed pc keith palmer outside parliament. lawyers representing survivors say they want to have talks with the mayor on how
6:59 am
to officially mark the tragedy. on the tube the district line has severe delays betweeen earls court and wimbledon. there is also major disruption for services in and out of waterloo but lines have repoened. still, delays. roadworks are slowing traffic down in forest hill — the a205 london road has temporary traffic lights at the junction with sydenham hill. now if you‘re not a fan of the gym, how about this instead? these classes are called drag diva fit — they‘re aimed at people who as you might have guessed aren‘t keen on conventional work outs— and they‘ll be cheered on and entertained by drag queens while they‘re exercising. fitness should be fun and it shouldn‘t feel like work. we have guys, girls, straight girls, gay men. it‘s just a place that they can feel comfortable in the gym and just
7:00 am
really enjoy themselves. hello, good morning. yesterday‘s exciting fun—packed day of weather was filled with cloud, a few brighter spells here and there are, light winds and of course it stayed dry too and today, well, it‘s looking really very similar, a replay of what we had yesterday. a mild, misty start to the morning, lots of low cloud around. the cloud will lift into yet more cloud as we head through the morning. some brighter spells here and there, particularly towards south—eastern areas of the capital. there could even be a bit of sunshine and in the best of any brightness and sunshine, we will see highs of 15 or 16 or 16 degrees celsius. otherwise underneath all that low cloud, 12s and 13s. through this evening and overnight, all of that cloud is just going to persist. there could be a few spots of drizzle arriving from the north—west as we had with the start of the day tomorrow
7:01 am
and that is going to spark off a few changes. it‘s a cold front which will introduce cooler air over the course of the weekend. still probably quite cloudy, particularly towards southern areas of the capital. some brightness further north. more reliable sunshine on sunday and a frost to start the new working week. and i‘ll be back in around half an hour. you can take a look at our website for more news, travel and weather. good morning. welcome to breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. our headlines today: the eu agrees to delay brexit beyond the 29th march, after late night talks in brussels. all options will remain open and the cliff edge date will be delayed. theresa may has been offered two new brexit deadlines in april and may. we‘ll tell you what could happen next. rescue workers try to reach people cut off by floods, one week after a major cyclone
7:02 am
hit southern africa. one week since the christchurch mosque attacks, memorials are held across new zealand in honour of the victims. police say a body recovered from the humber estuary is that of the missing student, libby squire. good morning. in sport, a humiliating night for scottish football. they‘re thrashed 3—0 by kazakhstan, a country ranked 77 places below. good morning. the kentucky fried crisis. just how does a fried chicken chain run out of chicken? the boss of kfc tells me that last year‘s shortage redefined "a bad day at the office". good morning and it is a dry, cloudy day across england and wales today. there will be more rain and some winter to mark the scotland and northern ireland. i will have the full forecast for today and
7:03 am
throughout the weekend in about 15 minutes. good morning. it‘s friday 22nd march. our top story: a delay to brexit has finally been agreed by eu leaders after talks dragged on late into the night in brussels. theresa may has been offered two new deadlines, as the prime minister once again urged mps back at home to get behind her deal. so let‘s take you through those new dates. brexit day, as things stand, of course, is the 29th march — seven days from now. if mps pass theresa may‘s deal next week, we will leave the eu on the 22nd may. if her deal is not approved, then april 12th becomes the new deadline. at that stage, mps will have to come up with an alternative plan, which could mean a longer extension, leaving with no deal, or even revoking article 50 — that‘s to say cancelling brexit completely. let‘s find out exactly
7:04 am
what happened last night then. here‘s more from our political correspondent, chris mason. you know it‘s rather late when the prime minister offers this greeting at the end of a long evening. good morning. yes, agreeing a delay to brexit had itself been delayed, but at gone midnight, it was eventually signed off, and the prime minister said... i hope we can all agree we are now at the moment of decision, and i will make every effort to ensure that we are able to leave with a deal and move our country forward. we now know, if the british parliament agrees to it, brexit will not happen a week today, as planned, with the eu saying that if the uk doesn‘t want to sign up to the withdrawal agreement, it has until april the 12th to work out what it does wants. —— want. what this means in practice is that, until that date, all options will remain open, and the cliff edge date will be delayed.
7:05 am
the uk government will still have a choice of a deal, no deal, a long extension, or revoking article 50. revoking article 50 means cancelling the brexit process, an idea that‘s attracted more than 2 million signatures on parliament‘s own website. but the government has flatly rejected the idea. for the prime minister this morning, a series of dilemmas have been postponed, but not resolved. there are still no easy answers for her. chris mason, bbc news. we‘ll get all the reaction from parliament injust a moment with our political correspondent, ben wright. first, our reporter adam fleming is in brussels for us right now. very good morning to you, adam. so donald tusk laid out the options pretty clearly, just take us to
7:06 am
events because theresa may appeared before the eu 27 and by all accounts, not very convincingly. yeah, so theresa may went in to speak to the other leaders at the start of yesterday afternoon. she spoke for about 90 minutes, answering questions, and that is an incredibly long time her to speak in this process, normally it is much quicker than that. she then left the room and the leaders had a discussion and they basically found her to be quite unconvincing, they did not think she had a deal to get the plan through parliament next week or a plan of what to do if the deal did not go through. they were really, really not impressed by her and that is what informed the big discussion they then had for several hours after that, with all sorts of ideas and date and plans and theories and strategies being discussed among the leaders around the table, which does not happen very often because normally, these things are arranged in advance by diplomats and ambassadors and ministers and just signed off by leaders. this was a proper brainstorming session by the people
7:07 am
that run the continent of europe. it was fascinating to watch. they had two things in their mind, one, they we re two things in their mind, one, they were really worried about having to come back next thursday for an emergency summit, where it looks like there could have been no deal happening in about 20 hours‘s time and they did not really want to get involved in that, the other thing that was really at the forefront of their minds was what to do about the european parliament elections and whether the uk was going to take part, not take part, be dangling the idea of taking part, and they realise that they had to basically have an answer to that by the 12th of april. those other two things to bear mind when you want to understand why eu leaders have ended up understand why eu leaders have ended up with the package that they have got and it is ok to be confused, donald tusk, the president of european council chair the meeting, was confused himself. he got one of the dates wrong when he was announcing what they had agreed. adam, thank you very much. that‘s the view from europe, let‘s speak now to our political
7:08 am
correspondent ben wright in westminster. now we‘re just waiting for the reaction back home, aren‘t we? now we‘re just waiting for the reaction back home, aren't we? that is right and i think around westminster, mps are gone back to their positions today but there will bea their positions today but there will be a sense of belief that what look like a possible no—deal brexit next friday has now been ruled out. 2a hours ago, did feel that suddenly we we re hours ago, did feel that suddenly we were hurtling towards that moment, you had those warnings from cpi and the tuc, mps from across the parties wanting about what they think could be the damages and consequences of the no—deal brexit but it look like that may happen if the deal went down again. now, everyone has got a bit of time, they have brought some time, the weeks, and it looks like next week, to be will have a final go getting her deal to the house of commons but the fundamentals of the problem of not changed. she fundamentally does not have the numbers to get to because a lot of her own brexiteer toys hated, labour and the opposition parties are not on board, the dup do not like it,
7:09 am
but now after the summit in brussels, we know that there will be a two—week window after that vote, where the mps and the government must finally try and come up with a compromise to get through this, or adding an amendment to the deal, or revoking article 50, perhaps even asking for an extension further. all thatis asking for an extension further. all that is still in play but the march 29 exit is not going to happen, that is not facts that day. 0k, thank you very much. —— brexit des. —— brexit day. in new zealand, thousands of people have observed two minutes‘ silence in memory of the 50 victims of last friday‘s mass shootings at two mosques in christchurch. special ceremonies and prayer services took place across the country to mark a week on from the killings.
7:10 am
a mass funeral 30 of the dead is also taking place today. —— a30. —— for30. aid agencies say hundreds of thousands of people have been affected by the tropical cyclone which hit southern africa last week, oxfam says an area of about 3,000 square kilometres is now under water. whole towns and villages have been submerged, and victims have been left stranded on rooves and stuck in trees. rescue teams are continuing to work to save survivors, as our africa editor fergal keane reports. a town separated from its country. buzi is now an island, its people marooned on rooftops. today, the country‘s president visited. filipe nyusi saw for himself the wretched conditions of his people. "the first thing we‘re going to do is rescue people from the water", he said, "so that they do not die." there was a small hand out of food aid, too small for so many, with inevitable frustration.
7:11 am
we joined a rescue team approaching buzi from the water, from where the river burst its banks. within a few minutes, we saw the first survivors calling to us from the shore. "we were in the water for four days", said this man. "we have lost our houses." from the air too, more rescues. this was the scene at the stadium in buzi and again, the limits of what‘s possible to achieve still such limited resources. and here, those who‘d heard that rescue was coming, crowded onto the banks. as we pulled away, others pleaded to be taken. we saw the indian navy rescue 67 people along the river, but as others are left behind, the sailors will be back tomorrow and for days to come.
7:12 am
police say a body recovered from the humber estuary is that of the missing student, libby squire. a tougher standard for punctuality will be introduced on britain‘s railways next month, in an attempt to improve performance. train times will be recorded to the minute at every stop, instead of the current system, which classes them as "on time" if they reach their final destination within five or 10 minutes of the timetable. punctuality across britain sank to a 13 year low in 2018. imagine looking up at the sky and seeing this sight before you. it looks like a burning meteor soaring through the sky, this was actually professional skydivers performing a stunt
7:13 am
thousands of feet in the air. the skydivers wore special wingsuit ‘s and glided to the air, before getting up to speeds of 100 miles an hour. they are like superheroes. we can see the final shot even one of the divers themselves, comes attached. it is amazing. high above the skyline there. counter—terrorism investigations are underway in birmingham after windows were smashed at five mosques in the city. the home secretary, sajid javid, has called the attacks "hateful", saying they had absolutely no place in society. the vandalism came just days after the mosque shootings in new zealand‘s christchurch, which left 50 worshippers dead. we‘re joined now from birmingham by adil parker from the city‘s council of mosques. a very good morning to you, adil. i‘m just looking at the islamic
7:14 am
centre behind you with what looks like a window smashed in, boarded up. was that the subject of these recent attacks? hello yes, this was one of the five centres attacked in the early hours of thursday morning. —— yes. the community is actually quite taken aback with what is going on. yes, tell us a bit more about how people are feeling about the attacks are place? as you can appreciate, this has happened on five islamic or muslim institutes and mosques. the congregation is feeling fearful, they feel vulnerable, there is a lot of anger amongst the community, as you can appreciate, every day, five times a day, people come to pay, families come along. there are kids that get dropped off every evening for islamic studies, so the parents are really worried about what is really going on. today is in a general sense of tanks in the community.
7:15 am
have the patrols by the police been stepped up in the community and our people reassured by that if that is taking place? so yes, yesterday we had really good meetings with the chief constable, the deputy chief co nsta ble of chief constable, the deputy chief constable of the police and i have to admit that the police authorities since last friday have been really forthcoming, the police have stepped up forthcoming, the police have stepped up their vigilance, they have been amount even outside this mosque last night, they were here till they opened up in the morning. so a huge thank you to the police, they have been really forthcoming. and because what happened in christchurch of course, so many people shocked by happened there. do you get a sense that this may have happened because of that or is has just been part of the process that has been going on over time. —— has it. the process that has been going on over time. -- has it. we were
7:16 am
talking about this a while ago as well, it really is not rocket science to understand this thing. the person was done this wanted to emulate in his own sense, in his own way, what in christchurch, but it is our absolute request and p to the authorities that these kinds of hate crimes, islamophobia, has to be stamped out of birmingham and of the uk once and for all. -- plea. thank you very much for your time. here‘s sarah with a look at this morning‘s weather. good morning. we have got conditions like this across much of the country. this is the scene at the moment the skies above norwich but we have got a lot of cloud on the forecast through today. it‘s dry and settled weather on the cards for much of england and wales but we have got some rain pushing and across parts of scotland and northern ireland. also quite windy through today as well. pressure not
7:17 am
far away. we got this fairly active cold front moving on from the north—west. lots of isobars on the map. particularly windy today across parts of scotland and northern ireland, especially towards the far north—west where some of those gusts could touch 70 miles per hour. we could touch 70 miles per hour. we could see gusts across northern ireland and england. more breezy than recent days. cloudy for most parts but we have some sunshine pushing into the south—west of england. also seeing a few breaks in that cloud. if you are lucky, you will see a glimmer of blue sky. approaching scotland and northern ireland through the afternoon. it will move on its way through northern and one. temperatures around about 1a— 15 degrees to the south about the colder hour working in from the north so as we move through this evening and tonight, the colder our sinks its way south. it will bring some wintry flurries over the high ground of scotland. we are expecting a touch of grass frost
7:18 am
on the north. milderfurther south we are holding onto all that cloud. through the weekend, high pressure dominating the weather. moving on from the atlantic but this weather front is stubborn and slow to clear. on saturday, particularly anyway south of the ma corridor, we will hold onto all that cloud through the day. sunny skies for the rest of the uk. wintry flurries packing into the north—west of scotland. temperatures not doing great for the time of year. but at least there is some sunshine to compensate. with clear skies by day, saturday night could prove to be quite a chilly night. it will feel a little colder. a touch of frost around as we head on into the early hours of sunday. sunday sta rts the early hours of sunday. sunday starts off on a chilly note. showers moving in from the north—west. snow over the mountains of scotland. further south, a bit more sunshine breaking through by the time we get to sunday. not a bad day.
7:19 am
temperatures 9—10. as we head through the course of next week, i pressure builds. lots of dry, settled weather. a bit of a chilly start of the new working week but you are pleased — be pleased to hear that damages should start to rise through next week. should skincare products and toiletries marketed to women cost more than those for men? and is there actually any difference between them? mps are debating a bill today that aims to scrap the "gender price gap", often known as the "pink tax", on items such as razors and deodorants. our consumer affairs correspondent colletta smith has been putting some of the products to the test. for him and for her. when it comes to toiletries, the packaging and the marketing are different. but how about what‘s inside? over a week, i‘ve been testing them out. using
7:20 am
men‘s and women‘s versions. alternate days and alternate armpits. to find out whether those designed for me feel any different to those designed for the boys. this is by no means a scientific experiment but for me a lot of the products didn‘t feel any different at all, whether it was razors, shower gel, shaving cream, much of a much must really. the shampoo, at a big fan of two in one shampoo selected and work for me so well but the surprise of the week was the face cream. the men‘s one, much cheaper than the women‘s and it felt really nice. so the centre is the big difference. if you don‘t mind smelling a bit like a bloke for a while it might be worth a trip down a different aisle. women are the majority of consumers and they are the majority of purse holders in that way and the marketing and advertising industry very much play to that. i stocked up on toiletries targeted separately at men and women to see if there is still a
7:21 am
difference in price. even after all the publicity about this over the last couple of years, this bag of female products cost me £2a 20 but my bag of mail versions only set me back £19 22. that‘s a 23% difference. it definitely doesn‘t feel fair. changing the law seems like a long route to solve the problem. shoppers can definitely say now by ignoring the packaging and being willing to try something that looks different. the mp christine jardine, who introduced the bill to parliament, joins us now. there will be lots of people around the country saying yes, i‘ve noticed this but i didn‘t actually think there was anything i could do about this. what will this bill do? it's set to stop manufacturers saying, we
7:22 am
are going to charge more for women because there is no difference at all. i spoke to scientists who got involved in this. basically the same products. marketed differently. we all have the same skin types. there is no difference between men and women. there is a difference between people but there is nothing to do with gender. the whole idea of men having a thicker abbey dermis is nonsense. where is the potential of this not to work? everyone hearing that will think it‘s not fair but the potential is if the manufacturers just say, people are buying it at this price, so we will sell it at this price, thanks very much. what happens then? i did research with the government in parliament, and they said no. i've taken parliament, and they said no. i've ta ken matters parliament, and they said no. i've taken matters into my own hands,
7:23 am
writing to the major manufacturers and retailers to say this is unfair because people will say, if you're prepared to pay more, you should. but if you are like me brought up in a family of three girls, that 20% difference in the toiletries bill over your a year difference in the toiletries bill overyoura year is difference in the toiletries bill over your a year is massive. that's not fair, especially the people at the moment i may be just managing. not fair, especially the people at the moment i may be just managinglj the moment i may be just managing.” com pletely the moment i may be just managing.” completely understand, it‘s unfair. they could say, don‘t buy it if you don‘t want it. we will keep the price the same. that is true, you canjust not price the same. that is true, you can just not buy price the same. that is true, you canjust not buy it. if you mind that you buy something that is marketed for a man, by the cheapest offer. but it's all part of, we also have this thing where we still market everything to boys and girls so by the time you get to 20, you are used tojust going down the aisle of a supermarket that has women's stuff in it. a friend of mine phoned me after lunch and said,
7:24 am
she was in the supermarket and saw things marketed to boys and girls and it's ridiculous. and i'm not a huge feminist but i balk at trying to sell things to boys and girls in a different way and they don't feel they have to go that way. it doesn't matter if you are a feminist or not, it‘s about equality. we need to talk to you about what‘s been happening with breaks it. a big intake of breath. your reaction to what happened last night. was it largely expected in terms of the eu agreeing to extend the deadline?” expected in terms of the eu agreeing to extend the deadline? i think what we've seen overnight from europe is what we've been seeing in parliament. very little progress. wanting to step forward. that extension, either of those extensions, they are not particularly long. to find a deal
7:25 am
that gives me that. you think theresa may‘s deal needs to come off the table. it's been rejected twice. the astonishing thing, one of the things he was surprised that, she doesn‘t appear to have a plan b. i don‘t think it‘s enough to keep saying the mps are blocking it. the government themselves are blocking it. theresa may‘s own mps are not supporting it. what you have in parliament is a feeling that this is not the best deal for the country in the country deserves a better chance. it‘s about what‘s best for the country. there have been real concerns, particularly about some of your females expressing real concerns about their safety this time. what about you? to be honest, i haven't worried about it. i probably will think more about it now. there have been times in parliament where it's been uncomfortable for all of us, when there were lots of protesters, we
7:26 am
had to walk to do an interview. i haven't experienced any problems but then again, i come from a constituency, my constituents voted, more than two thirds of them, to remain in the european union. i was elected on a platform of opposing going ahead without taking it back to the people so if you like, i don't really have a problem but i do know a lot of mps, especially the women mps are finding it tough. that is why it is so important that we find a way out of this wide thank you very much. christine jardine, scottish liberal democrat mp. john mcguire is at swanage station. why? he has a very special guest. the flying scotsman, is there a more famous train in the world? has there ever been a more famous engine than this? i would argue not. once

7:30 am
a replay of what we had yesterday. a mild, misty start to the morning, lots of low cloud around. the cloud will lift into yet more cloud as we head through the morning. some brighter spells here and there, particularly towards south—eastern areas of the capital. there could even be maybe a littlle bit of sunshine and in the best of any brightness and sunshine, we will see highs of 15 or 16 degrees celsius. otherwise underneath all of that low cloud, 12s and 13s. now, through this evening and overnight, all of that cloud is just going to persist. there could be a few spots of drizzle arriving from the north—west as we had into the start of the day tomorrow and that is going to spark off a few changes. it‘s a cold front, it will introduce some cooler air over the course of the weekend. still probably quite cloudy, particularly towards southern areas of the capital on saturday. some brightness further north. more reliable sunshine on sunday and a frost to start the new working week. and i‘ll be back in around half an hour. you can take a look at our website for more news, travel and weather. now it‘s back to charlie and naga.
7:31 am
hello. welcome back. this is breakfast with charlie stayt and naga munchetty. here‘s a summary of this morning‘s main stories from bbc news. a delay to brexit has finally been agreed by eu leaders, after talks dragged on late into the night in brussels. theresa may has been offered two new deadlines as the prime minister once again urged mps to get behind her deal. now, if parliament does support her proposals when it goes to a vote next week, then we will leave the eu on the 22nd may. if a deal isn‘t approved, then the 12th of april will become the new deadline for brexit. i hope we can all agree we are now at the moment of decision, and i will make every effort to ensure that we are able to leave with a deal and move our country forward.

in new zealand, thousands of people have observed two minutes‘ silence in memory of the 50 victims of last friday‘s mass shootings at two mosques in christchurch. special ceremonies and prayer services took place across the country to mark a week on from the killings. a mass funeral for 30 of the dead is also taking place today. rescue workers are desperately trying to reach survivors in south—eastern africa cut off by floods caused by cyclone idai. people have been left stranded on roofs and up trees, with whole towns and villages submerged in water. oxfam says an area of around 3,000 square kilometres is now under water. the cyclone hit the region last week. police searching for 21—year—old libby squire have confirmed a body recovered from the humber estuary is that of the missing hull university student. during the initial investigation, a 2a—year—old man was arrested on suspicion of abduction. he‘s been remanded in custody on unrelated charges and remains under investigation. a tougher standard for

punctuality will be introduced on britain‘s railways next month, in an attempt to improve performance. train times will be recorded to the minute at every stop, instead of the current system, which classes them as "on time" if they reach their final destination within five or 10 minutes of the timetable. punctuality across britain sank to a 13 year low in 2018. so let‘s have a look at the sport now. mike is here and we have a performance by scotland which has been widely divided. so bad that commentators and the scotsman newspaper have said it was the worst result since 1872, when they played their first ever international against england. 's who are they playing in what was the score? last night, it was against kazakhstan. they were in astana, which is now changing its name to nursultan. this
7:34 am
goes down in a long list of scottish embarrassing notes of football, iran, peru, costa rica, but this really usurps them all according to some of the pundits. craig kelly, former scotland manager has just said it is abysmal, but says he is not surprised. that is how bad scotla nd not surprised. that is how bad scotland island at the moment, so it is pretty damning. scotla nd were expected to win with much hardesr tests to come, against russia and belgium to come. lowly kaza khsta n lowly kazakhstan managed to score twice again scotland inside the opening ten minutes. and things got worse after the break as they conceded a third. scotland play san marino on sunday, and they‘ll be looking for a much better performance. it‘s never finished till it‘s finished. we bounced back from a poor
7:35 am
performance in the israel game, in israel, and that‘s what we must do after this game. now, we have all the players to come back, obviously there‘s players who will be more experienced who have got to come back. northern ireland had a much more positive start to their euro 2020 qualifying campaign, a 2—0 win over estonia at windsor park. the home side had to be patient, before early in the second half, niall mcginn got the magic touch there to make it 1—0. steven davis added the second from the penalty spot after the referee decided george saville was fouled. michael o‘neill‘s men play their second qualifier against belarus on sunday. there‘ll be no marcus rashford for england in their opening qualifier against the czech republic tonight, as he‘s injured, and the buildup has been overshadowed by an old social media post. midfielder declan rice made an apparent reference in support of the ira, this was in an instagram post in 2015, when he was an ireland youth player.
7:36 am
he has now switched to england last month and has apologised for "any offence caused" by the "poorly expressed comment". his new national manager doesn‘t think the incident will affect rice‘s reception by england fans. i think people understand, you know, most people will have children of those sorts of ages and people are still maturing at that age, and you‘re in conversations with friends that, you know, you can get giddy and you can say things that maybe you don‘t even know enough about or you don‘t understand the context, so i think ourfans and our public will recognise that fact, i‘m sure. chelsea ladies have won the first leg of their last eight champions league tie against paris saint germain. hannah blundell got chelsea‘s first. watch this for a strike. living all the way over the keeper into the bottom corner. —— looping
7:37 am
it. erin cuthbert scored the second and it finished 2—0. the second leg is in paris next wednesday. however, this was a bit shocking. class a drugs and weapons, including knives and knuckledusters, were found on a coach carrying psg fans to last night‘s game. one man was arrested. the remaining passengers were escorted from the area by police. there were also reports of vandalism at the stadium and also disorder at waterloo and wimbledon stations. in tenis, jo konta is through to the second round of the miami open, and dan evans is also through in the men‘s draw. in fact, he lostjust two games in beating tunisian malekjaziri. evans, remember, was only playing in the first round because he was a lucky loser earlier in the week. british number two cameron norrie was knocked out though overnight. ronnie o‘sullivan is edging his way back to the world number one spot for the first time in a decade. he beatjudd trump last night in snooker‘s tour championship in lladudno, on the very last black in the last frame. o‘sullivan rolled it in having won five of the last six frames. what a comeback. if he wins the final, against either neil robertson or mark allen, he‘ll be top dog again in the sport.
7:38 am
warrington moved level on points with super league leaders st helens, but only after holding off a remarkable second—half comeback by wakefield. with 20 minutes left, wakefield were trailing by 22 points, but ran in four tries. and they‘d have snatched a draw if danny brough hadn‘t missed this conversion. the final score then 3a—32 to warrington. now as we‘ve heard, it wasn‘t a great day for scotland‘s footballers but how about this from golfer russell knox last night? here he is in the first round of the valspar championship in florida. he was struggling at this point, but watch this. an albatross. so he found the hole with just his second shot. 3—under par for the hole. he finished the day on a—under par, along with england‘s luke donald, just one shot off the lead. we have never had an albatross, we can only dream about those. yeah. talking about animals, real animals. what? absolutely, pterodactyl ‘s or pigeons, i don‘t know, whatever you fancy. have you got something else
7:39 am
to show us? go on. we‘ve seen alligators, snakes, baboons on golf courses before. elephants? i don't know, i don't know about elephants on a golf course. for mel reid, it is behind you. then you realise it is arizona and it is just you. then you realise it is arizona and it isjust a you. then you realise it is arizona and it is just a little bobcat. pretty harmless, it looks bigger though. bobcat is taking any notice of the golf. i was in devon years ago and the greenkeeper said do not stay there after dusk because there have been sightings of big cat. i do not know how big, whether it was someone‘s pet or whether it was a black panther. it would be exciting. thank you so much, see you later on. quote, "i have neverfelt this level of tension". those were the words of deputy speaker lindsay hoyle
7:40 am
in an email to mp5, advising them to take steps to ensure their own safety ahead of a potentially crucial vote on brexit next week. it follows growing concern about mps‘s welfare in the face of brexit—related abuse and threats. here‘s what politicians have been saying. last week, i received a message saying that my head should be chopped off, among lots and lots of other messages, in common with many other messages, in common with many other members on both sides of this house. i don't mind getting criticism but i do get effort. one came in yesterday. i'm not able to go home this weekend, i am not safe. and when a senior police officer tells your partner that if it was his wife in a situation that i am m, his wife in a situation that i am in, he would say i am frightened for her safety, i think that tells you everything. let‘s speak now to will geddes, who is a security consultant. good to speak to you, joining us in westminster and, you are listening to all of this, it almost seems so extreme that do you think there is a credible threat now that mps are
7:41 am
facing? i think they're very much is and we have seen the development of the kind of anti— sentiment and negativity towards mps grow more aggressively since 2016 and the death ofjo aggressively since 2016 and the death of jo cox aggressively since 2016 and the death ofjo cox and this is something which is absolutely way is probably many mps‘s concerns. they have also not necessarily had very direct that‘s against them but as your report shows, many are receiving messages through social media, which in many cases can be their main way of communicating with their main way of communicating with their constituency. we were talking to christine geraldine, a scottish mpfor edinburgh to christine geraldine, a scottish mp for edinburgh west. she was on the sofa this morning and we were talking to her about her security and she was saying it is true, the reports of mps being told to install panic alarms in their homes, kay panic alarms in their homes, kay panic alarms in their homes, kay panic alarms as well, and these are not just screamers, these panic alarms as well, and these are notjust screamers, these are ones that actually connect to the police, this is happening. does that seem like normal to you? hello well,
7:42 am
again, measure of what normal is these days is very difficult to gauge but when we look at the negotiations about brexit, which is fuelling in many waysjust negotiations about brexit, which is fuelling in many ways just the general unrest among the british population but drawing more specifically towards both far left and communities, we are seeing this very much being illustrated and demonstrated in social media, as i mentioned. -- yes. and that in many ways ca n mentioned. -- yes. and that in many ways can be that kind of vomited public sentiment. now, messages are inevitably coming third mps which are concerning them and many cabinet ministers will have a full on protection detail, with general members of parliament, they have to consider that they are moving amount within the local communities, they are trying to operate a constituency as normal and it is those occasions, which we saw with jo as normal and it is those occasions, which we saw withjo cox, that they can rightly feel exposed when they are receiving a lot of hateful communication. and of course, mps have surgeries as well they can see
7:43 am
their constituencies face—to—face, i do not know that there has been any advice at the moment telling them not to do that, but they do not have a security detail. absolutely, and the need to be able to communicate with their constituencies that do not have those surgeries puts them ina not have those surgeries puts them in a very, very difficult position. the police give them advice and that will be personal security and personal protection advice and as you say, there is a nominal budget thatis you say, there is a nominal budget that is afforded to mp5, and also to have panic alarms that they carry with them, which can cost on average up with them, which can cost on average up to £1000 a year. but there is a response mechanism to those panic alarms and how long it will take for the police to be a common there are also briefings taking into the various states that they receive, which ones are genuine, which ones they have to take very seriously and which isjust general they have to take very seriously and which is just general public dissatisfaction. how easy is it to judge that, when someone is just simply angry and what‘s kind of
7:44 am
localised anger or when someone, it is more than that, it is going to be something more sinister? well, it can be quite difficult but there are a lot of indications within a message that can give an indication of how serious it might be. one is repeated messages coming from a single source or it has been anonymized all the content of the message itself, if it is more precise and is indicating that the third itself knows that particular person with that particular victim‘s pattern of life, do they know their whereabouts? have they mentioned we re whereabouts? have they mentioned were actually given a specific piece of information that would say that they are monitoring that potential target? 0k, thank you very much for going through that with us, security co nsulta nt going through that with us, security consultantjoining us going through that with us, security consultant joining us in westminster. got a lot of cloud in the skies
7:45 am
today. similar story up and down the country. england and wales, keeping this cloud through the course of the day. or scotland and northern ireland, rain in the forecast. when it clears away, a bit more sunshine later on. but it‘s also going to be very windy in the north—west because we‘ve got an active cold front moving in. high pressure not far away. that will dominate the weather in the south and east. will that wind, these are some of the gusts we might see. touching 70 miles per hour on exposed locations in the north—west. all down to this weather front. england and wales stay dry for most of the day. temperatures here, around about 12— 1a degrees. cold where moving on from the
7:46 am
north—west. we‘re looking at single figures as we head on into evening hours. most of the rain will tend to fizzle out. perhaps the odd spot of drizzle in the south first thing saturday morning. clear skies for the rest of the country. still some wintry showers. or saturday, high pressure builds in from the atlantic. we‘ve still got this lingering cold front. it will be a bit stubborn through the day. bring a small cloud, and you are south of the ma corridor. more sunshine for the ma corridor. more sunshine for the rest of the uk. still a few wintry flurries pushing and across parts of scotland. lots of dry weather on the map this saturday. which is not great for the time of year. 10—13. under the clear skies, and we have you had this cold air mass saturday night and into sunday. quite a chilly night. a touch of frost, particularly in the north.
7:47 am
we‘ve still got the cloud on the south to start the day on sunday but it should tend to pin and break up. a bit more sunshine developing. temperatures, nine or 10 degrees in the north and about 12 or 13 further south. again, quite a cold night sunday into monday but as we head through the course of the working week, next week looks quite dry and settled. with high pressure generally in charge, those temperatures should start to creep up temperatures should start to creep up and feel fairly springlike as we head through to next week. i think we should apologise about the heavy rock music. we did it as a bit of a joke. i should have been rocking out of the end of that forecast. we thought you
7:48 am
had that in you. that was why. would you like to do it again? i am with you, sarah. we will see charlie rocking out. let‘s move on. i absolutely agree. you may remember last year, a crisis engulfed kfc like no other. they ran out of chicken. they just like no other. they ran out of chicken. theyjust couldn‘t get the chicken. theyjust couldn‘t get the chicken there in time. because so many problems. people complained. it turned into a national crisis. one yearon, turned into a national crisis. one year on, i‘ve been speaking to the boss about how all that unfolded and she told me that it redefined what you can class is a bad day in the office. i‘m not going to lie,
7:49 am
it was really, really tough. many things transpired to mean that we did run out of chicken. but it‘s really cemented in people‘s mind is that it‘s very fresh chicken and you can run out. on a normal day, if i had even 5—10 stores closed, restau ra nts closed, that would be a cause for concern so to be in a situation were up to 600, 700 of our stores were closing, it totally redefined a bad day. you can‘t almost understand how awful that was for a business. we‘re nearly 30,000 people employed by kfc in some fashion across the uk, we were all working 20 out of 2a hours. we didn‘t see our families, we didn‘t come home but it‘s just needs, must. it was all hands to the pump by everyone. what do you want to see as far as brexit is concerned? what outcome would work for you? we can manage through anything, any tariff set up, and any tax structure. any agreement, butjust not knowing what that agreement is causes us no
7:50 am
way of planning, no certainty or anyone. way of planning, no certainty for anyone. all of our chicken on the bone and nearly all of our wings comes from the uk but a lot of our chips for example comes from the continent, comes from europe, so we do have to think, what is actually feasible to stockpile in the uk? we, like others on the high street, will be ok for so long but if there‘s mass disruption for everyone then at some point it does run out. i‘m looking at your menu boards here and they‘ve all got calorie content on them and no—one is pretending that deep fried chicken is good for us but how important is nutrition in terms of what you are serving to people and what they are eating? you may remember that we sold grilled chicken for a while or that we sold pulled, slow cooked chicken but the shame if it is in some regards when you sell those products, people still come in and thereby the same fried products, people still come in and they buy the same fried chicken that they always want and they‘ve been after. there is no silver bullet. but we have made a big public pledge that by 2025, we are taking out 20% of all calories in a kfc meal. that is an incredible amount.
7:51 am
i think it amounts to 15 billion calories annually so a huge amount out of the uk‘s diet. but why does it take six years to do that? it‘s like any bold goal, you don‘t exactly know how going to do it on the first day but what you are putting out there is a big public commitment that we will get there. now, i imagine you make, what, 99% of your money from selling meat, chicken but there is a big move towards vegetarian, more vegan options. does it worry you? what are you doing about it? we want people to be able to come here and enjoy meat some days and not meat other days. there is all sorts of stuff being worked on potentially vegetarian, vegan, it is top secret but we don‘t want to give the game away but we have plans that are coming through. you would be mad not to have plans.
7:52 am
we also want to talk a little bit about breaks it in terms of supply chains. a lot of the worries are about what might be stuck at ports. will that she can still be able to get in. she explained to me that most of the chicken is sourced from the uk. isaid, why i said, why the heck do need to employ — and poor chicken from thailand? in this country, we consume more than we grow. they have been stockpiling a little bit to make sure they have what they need but like all businesses, they say, in the short—term, it should be ok. it depends what happens in the longer term. some really big questions. who would have thought he would get your chicken from thailand. and look at this picture here. you can step on board the flying scotsman this morning. john mcguire is there for us this morning. good
7:53 am
morning to you, john. they call it rock, bad job, good job? morning to you, john. they call it rock, badjob, goodjob? they are going to let you drive it, aren‘t they? the engine belongs to the national rail museum. it's always interesting to drive a different engine. they are all different and they all work in a different way. they‘ve got foibles but you‘re not going to get the chance to drive this at full speed. apparently, it absolutely drives like a proper racing machine. they were very fast. they were designed to go nice long
7:54 am
distances. they got nice, soft, cushioned seats. other engines which are much older in their designs are rudimentary. this is the luxury end, the racing car end of steam engines. and to drive it, you would have had to put your head out of the window backin to put your head out of the window back in the day. it would have been quite a difficult thing to do. you will see photographs of people with goggles on all glasses, and as you can see, with the glass year, you‘ve not got a lot of vision otherwise. thank you very much, all the very best. we‘re just going to show you what the flying scotsman looks like from the outside while we climbed down off the footplate. it really is an absolutely magnificent machine, built in 1923 an absolutely magnificent machine, built in1923 in an absolutely magnificent machine, built in 1923 in doncaster ‘s almost 100 years old she is and i‘m reliably informed by jack who is up there cleaning her at the moment
7:55 am
that you do refer to steam engines as female, call the flying scotsman of course. peter with us. we have some old footage of you with long hair from some old footage of you with long hairfrom back in the some old footage of you with long hair from back in the 805. some old footage of you with long hairfrom back in the 805. i don‘t know if you remember and that was filmed but that was along the swanage railway somewhere. a long time ago. a5 years i‘ve been involved and it‘s been quite satisfying. you have a situation today we have the flying scotsman. we had her back in 9a and came down here for a short spell and what a lovely engine. it‘s magnificent. if you go to any pub quiz and anybody asks the question what is the name ofa asks the question what is the name of a steam engine, you will get the flying scotsman. why do people love it, why do people love the crowds. the history that it‘s got with the public and now it‘s back in public ownership, people know the engine,
7:56 am
they love the engine. when they get a model train set, everybody wants to have a flying scotsman there. really good to talk to you this morning. the flying scotsman was saved from the scrapheap back in 1963 by a man called alan pegler. his daughter will be here to tell us about a special family length, what memory she has, riding on it in north america. it‘s going to be absolutely fascinating to talk to her. don‘t miss that. coming up later on in breakfast, the news, travel, and weather now where you are this morning. good morning from bbc london news, i‘m sonja jessup. passengers using waterloo are facing major disruption passengers using waterloo are facing major disruption this morning. no trains have been running in or out of one of britain‘s busiest stations. it‘s because of over—running engineering works
7:57 am
and commuters are being warned disruption is expected to continue till midday. knives, knuckle—dusters and class a drugs have been found onboard a bus carrying paris st germain fans to a women‘s champion‘s league game against chelsea. up to 50 psg supporters were denied entry to the quarter—final tie at kingsmeadow in kingston. police were first called to reports of vandalism at the stadium— then later to disorder at waterloo and wimbledon stations. one man‘s been arrested. today marks the second anniversary of the westminster terror attack but some survivors are unhappy there‘s no official commemoration. five people were killed after the attacker drove his car into crowds on westminster bridge and then stabbed pc keith palmer outside parliament. lawyers representing survivors say they want to have talks with the mayor on how to officially mark the tragedy. on the tube — the district line has minor delays
7:58 am
between wimbledon and earl‘s court now we told you earlier about the major disruption at waterloo— some services may be cancelled or delayed by up to an hour. and on the roads traffic‘s building on the highway as you can see here from the limehouse link tunnel as far as tower bridge. now if you‘re not a fan of the gym, how about this instead? these classes are called drag diva fit — they‘re aimed at people who aren‘t keen on conventional workouts and they‘ll be cheered on by drag queens. fitness should be fun and it shouldn‘t feel like work. we have guys, girls, straight girls, gay men. it‘s just a place that they can feel comfortable in the gym and just really enjoy themselves. time for the weather— here‘s elizabeth rizzini. hello, good morning. yesterday‘s exciting fun—packed day of weather was filled with cloud, a few brighter spells here and there, light winds and of course it stayed dry too and today, well, it‘s looking really very similar, a replay of what we had yesterday. a mild, misty start to the morning, lots of low cloud around. the cloud will lift into yet more cloud as we head through the morning.
7:59 am
some brighter spells here and there, particularly towards south—eastern areas of the capital. there could even be maybe a littlle bit of sunshine and in the best of any brightness and sunshine, we will see highs of 15 or 16 degrees celsius. otherwise underneath all of that low cloud, 12s and 13s. now, through this evening and overnight, all of that cloud is just going to persist. there could be a few spots of drizzle arriving from the north—west as we had into the start of the day tomorrow and that is going to spark off a few changes. it‘s a cold front, it will introduce some cooler air over the course of the weekend. still probably quite cloudy, particularly towards southern areas of the capital on saturday. some brightness further north. more reliable sunshine on sunday and a frost to start the new working week. and i‘ll be back in around half an hour. take a look at our website for more news, travel and weather at the usual address. bye for now.
