you're watching beyond 100 days. the left fights back — spain's socialists win an election. but there was a search for the vox party in the far right entered parliament for the first time since the death of franco. prime minister pedro sanchez fell short of a majority, but he celebrated and said he will lead a minority government. a video images appearing to show the leader of the so—called islamic state group. if authentic, it is the first time abu bakr al—baghdadi has been seen in five years. also on the programme, boeing faces litigation and a sharp drop in the company's litigation and a sharp drop in the compa ny‘s value after litigation and a sharp drop in the company's value after its litigation and a sharp drop in the compa ny‘s value after its newest plane was grounded over safety concerns. we know every person who stepped aboard one of our air planes places their trust in us. we will do

everything possible to earn, and re—earn that trust and confidence from our airline customers and the flying public. and the avengers are back — end game could be the biggest grossing film of all time. in its first run last week, it took more than $1 billion at the box office. hello, i'm katty kay in new york. christian fraser is in london. the ten years, the socialist forces in europe have been in decline but last night the socialists of spain bucked that trend. the party of prime minister pedro sanchez claimed victory with 3 million more votes than the last party. the result leaves him short of an overall majority and facing some complex negotiations in the weeks ahead. vox became the first hard right party since franco to win representation in the spanish parliament. they took 24 in the spanish parliament. they took 2a seats, though that was less than many had forecast. and with the vote on the right now split three ways,

the biggest loser of the night was the biggest loser of the night was the main conservative opposition, the main conservative opposition, the popular party, which now has only 66 seats, less than half the number it had in 2016, when it won the election. here is prime minister pedro sanchez. translation: we made it happen. the socialist party has w011 it happen. the socialist party has won the election and in doing so, the future has won and the past has lost. tim willcoxjoins us in madrid. the polls had suggested a slightly different results. did the spaniards have a change of heart as they went into the polling booth? i'm not sure. the polls got it more or less right. they may be overestimated the influence of vox. it wasn't the political earthquake that vox was hoping for. they got 20 fewer seats than they were hoping to get. they we re than they were hoping to get. they were aiming for40 than they were hoping to get. they were aiming for a0 or 45

than they were hoping to get. they were aiming for a0 or a5 and got 2a. broadly speaking, pedro sanchez was ahead in the polls. as you say, he hasn't got an overall majority and there is a lot of work ahead for him. he says he wants to lead a minority government, so he will have to persuade people to come on board to persuade people to come on board to get him through the first vote. then maybe some of the people he will ask for support initially will abstain, and he will have to cut sideways deals, for example with podemos, the hard left party. but then moss will hope to be in some sort of left—leaning socialist bloc here, but it's not clear how much pedro sanchez will give them. it is also worth pointing out what a comeback kid politician he is. before he was sacked, he lost two elections with the worst results everfor elections with the worst results ever for the socialists, so elections with the worst results everfor the socialists, so much elections with the worst results ever for the socialists, so much so that he was kicked out. he then had a year travelling around madrid listening to people, rather like emmanuel macron, and now he has come back with a mandate. but the next

few weeks will be crucial for him to see what sort of shape he can put a grouping together. there are some suggestions that maybe he won't align himself with anybody at all and govern with a confidence and supply agreement. could that work? it could, but it will be more problematic for him than if he went into coalition. he wants to have the freedom to operate as he wants. they're in mind that even though he is prime minister here, he is known as the president of the government, which gives him a lot more leeway potentially in terms of getting legislation through. what is crucial for him, though, is to get his budget passed. when he called the election, the budget was not passed because the cattle and sided with the right. —— the catalan sided with

the right. —— the catalan sided with the right. —— the catalan sided with the right. the feeling is that he will go for a minority government with that confidence and supply arrangement. that will mean he will have to cut lots of different ideals. the gains made by the vox party mirror what we have seen across other european elections recently. in part, it's a backlash against the political mainstream, but the discontent also taps into concerns about globalisation, immigration, the dilution of national identity and the european union itself. the ha rd and the european union itself. the hard right is now in power in hungary and sharing power in austria and italy. a 10% vote for vox in spain might be less tha n a 10% vote for vox in spain might be less than expected, but it is nonetheless the first time the far right has sat in the spanish parliament since democracy returned to spain in 1975. here is what the vox leader had to say after the results. translation: we tell you we we re results. translation: we tell you we were launching a comeback, and that's exactly what we have done, a

comeback that now has a voice in congress. we can say with the utmost clarity to all of spain that vox is here to stay. we want to thank the 2.5 million people who represented the real spain. to discuss what all this means for spain, we are joined bya this means for spain, we are joined by a political scientist. pedro, good to have you with us. there has been a collapse in the support for the mainstream right popular party. what will that mean for politics in spain? is it going to drag the right wing parties further to the right? first of all, the mainstream right—wing political party has been trying to attract vox voters and because of this, they have clearly switched to the right. now the next step will be to what extent there is

going to be a hard struggle with the three her right—wing political parties and it will be interesting to see. clarify for our audiences around the web, what does the socialist party in spain mean by socialist? i think it's a clear and social democratic party. it has been representing quite well the working class people of this country. it's a party that is more open and friendly to the demands for decentralisation on the side of the catalan and basque nationalists. we have looked

at these far right movements in america and europe. the odd thing about vox is that they didn't manage to attract those disillusioned workers on the left who have fallen out with the left and then gone all the way over to the hard right. that didn't happen in spain. that is definitely true and it is different from other far right parties definitely true and it is different from otherfar right parties in other countries. they are a new populist radical right party in terms of the socio— economic policies they want to implement. they want to cut taxes. they want to cut all social expenditure. this is obviously something that is not attractive to the working class people who have been voting for all these right—wing parties in other

countries. pedro, thank you for joining us. it is a time that people often vote for the smaller parties, putting a squeeze on these traditional parties. so we have pulled out three countries just to look at the trends. interesting when you look at france, because the social democrats in france collapsed at the last election. when you look at the last election. when you look at these polls, there is no sign of at these polls, there is no sign of a resurgence on the left, nor indeed for the centre—right in france either. still macron and the national rally. this is italy, the ha rd national rally. this is italy, the hard right from the north with the five star movement out in front. but it is the uk where the votes truly split. the newly formed brexit party of nigel farage leads with 25%. labour and the conservatives are holding the middle ground and on the left, you see change uk with just

7%. i suppose the issue is that when you look at what happened last night in spain, people obviously listened to the fearmongering from pedro sanchez about what vox represented and they took a decision to vote for him. it may be wasn't for his political programme that they voted, but people vote differently in european elections. they tend to be more of a protest vote because people don't think they matter as much. so when you look at those polls, you could have a scenario where out of 750 seats in the european parliament, you might have around 200 that belong to these hard right parties. which is what people have been predicting. another interesting thing about spain last night is that after some of the warnings about what vox represented, the socialists won largely because they had a big turnout amongst women and younger voters. as you say, it might not be that it was a vote in favour of pedro sanchez and his

policies. it did look on their part like a protest vote against vox, who area like a protest vote against vox, who are a party who have been anti—some feminist principles, and so you perhaps you have a kickback against them. you can have kickback against them. you can have kickback against the extremes as well, right? interesting results in spain. let's talk about some news in the last hour. a video has emerged which appears to show the man believed to be the leader of the islamic state group. if authentic, this would be the first time abubakar al—baghdadi has been seen sincejuly of 201a, when he proclaimed the creation of a caliphate across parts of syria and iraq. in this new footage, he vows to seek revenge following the loss of is territory in baku goos in syria. interesting timing, a week at the attacks in sri lanka. 0ur security correspond in frank gardner is with us. the russians insisted they killed him in 2017. here we have a man that looks a little older than the last time we saw him, talking about these attacks in sri lanka. if that is authentic, it

would suggest he is very much alive. i think it is him, there is no reason to doubt it. he is a7. he likes to look older. it is done very much in the style of 0sama bin laden, the whole optics of it are donein laden, the whole optics of it are done in that style with the short paratroop version of the kalashnikov beside him, the beard, the combat look, coupled with the grey beard of wisdom. it is very much the bin laden look. what he says in the 18 minute video is that he talks about a warof minute video is that he talks about a war of attrition. he admits they lost the war. the fight was over, as he puts it, although he does not admit to defeat, but he calls for more attacks. he calls for the usual things. let's be honest, this is a man whose caliphate was defeated militarily, soundly at baghouz in syria. 0ver militarily, soundly at baghouz in syria. over the last five years since he last appeared, his so—called caliphate has shrunk to nothing. so all they are capable of now is terrorist attacks. they have

now is terrorist attacks. they have no more territory. that doesn't mean they are not a dangerous organisation. frankly, we have been hearing from security experts that there has been a power struggle at there has been a power struggle at the top of the so—called islamic state group. do you think this video is being released as much to show that he is still in power and has supporters and is directed at is as much as it is directed internationally? yes, and it is probably also directed at al-qaeda, remember them, the people who did 9/11? they have not gone away, as we we re 9/11? they have not gone away, as we were reminded at the munich security conference two months ago by western intelligence chiefs. so yes, it is not just a power struggle intelligence chiefs. so yes, it is notjust a power struggle within isis itself, but also within the wider jihadist isis itself, but also within the widerjihadist movement. there has been a lot of criticism online by some isis fighters and their families, accusing him of running away while they stayed and fought at baghouz and other places like raqqa. he disappeared. he has not been

seen, for his own security reasons, sincejuly of seen, for his own security reasons, since july of 201a. seen, for his own security reasons, sincejuly of 201a. he has not been heard of in an audio message since august. some say, he abandoned us to fight. but others will sadly be encouraged by this to show that the movement isn't over. importantly, there is an audio message tacked onto the end of this video which refers to the easter sunday bombings in sri lanka, to update it, which would imply that the video it was recorded probably in early april and then more latterly, that bit was tacked on before they upload it to the internet. frank gardner, thank you. they have those hundreds of former iso joe's who they have in camps. they can question him about man that, they can provide intel about where he has been recently. american

congress after two weeks with democrats still divided over impeaching president trump. this week, william barr is scheduled to appear to explain why in the view of many democrats he presented special counsel robert mueller‘s report in a way that gave the president maximum political cover. mr barr is threatening to boycott those proceedings because he was like how it is being set up. meanwhile, all eyes onjoe it is being set up. meanwhile, all eyes on joe biden. it is being set up. meanwhile, all eyes onjoe biden. he is beginning his presidential campaign today. the former vice president is the democratic front runner at the moment. he will deliver his speech on the theme of rebuilding the middle class. talk to us about volume bar, all eyes on him this week. they want to know why he presented the miller report in the way that he did. why might he not turn up to the house committee? the

expectation is that he will go first to testify before the senate judicial committee, operated by the republican majority. every expectation is that this will be ironed out by the time for the rolls around and he is expected to appear before the house. he is trying to discourage house democrats from creating a format in which he has to answer certain questions in a way that they wanted with their attorneys there in private. so all of it is about a format discussion in which he wants to have control of the justice department, how it proceeds, and in what format. he also does not want to come back so he has tried to argue to them, this isa he has tried to argue to them, this is a one shot, he wants to talk about this one term with them. let's accomplish what we can. say he does, and does testify, what does that actually change in the amount of the american public? the polling since

they mueller‘s report came out has been fascinating to stop suggest that the majority think that the president is not telling the truth but also do not want impeachment proceedings to begin. what will this change? it is supposed to be an opportunity for both the senate and house to ask specific questions about a 488 house to ask specific questions about a a88 page report. there are some members who want to talk about russia. there will be republicans who want to talk about the underlying way that the whole investigation was launched. then there are democrats who want to ask william barr why does she issue a a—page letter summarising the miller report ina a—page letter summarising the miller report in a way that they find to have been false and perhaps misleading? he knows he will get some tough questions about that and he agreed to answer. we expect, if he agreed to answer. we expect, if he does get a chance to testify under the wheels he is looking for that the democrats are looking for,

that the democrats are looking for, thatis that the democrats are looking for, that is a predicate for what will come. house democrats want to continue the investigation, including the opportunity to question robert mueller himself. attorney general barr says he has no objections to robert mueller testifying. let's talk about joe biding his off to pittsburgh. president trump has he nicknames him sleepyjoe, and he will be like naming him that all three the campaign. what kind of format, visibly, physically, whether he is able to adapt to this?

reminiscing a little bit, as we all remember from the 2016 election, then candidate tom who won against hillary clinton tried to talk about herasa low hillary clinton tried to talk about her as a low energy. this is not a new kind of way of challenging an opponent. president trump makes people smile because you tries to describe yourself at age 72 is more young and vigorous that joe biden would be at 76 as a candidate. what's important about joe would be at 76 as a candidate. what's important aboutjoe biden is decision to put his flag into start in pennsylvania is that he was born there, it's battle ground state in there, it's battle ground state in the general election if he makes it that far. this is considered a state very much line and in support ofjoe biden in general. but now, it is full of republicans, according to a re ce nt full of republicans, according to a recent survey, that suggest that three out of five pennsylvania supporters who may have been

supportive of president trump may be ready for a change. whenjoe biden appears in pennsylvania and talks about the middle class, and appears with an endorsement from the unions, because you didn't mention that president trump went after the firefighters union that endorsed joe biden. trying to suggest that the union which supported the president trump in the last election, he is suggesting that the numbers will be with him. in fact, tom's campaign has been in pennsylvania and are very worried that pennsylvania will not be supportive of president trump all the way through this election. thank you very much indeed. it is april 2019 and we are already talking about the 2020 election. i suppose with 20 democrats in the battlefield, . . . suppose with 20 democrats in the battlefield, . .. it is suppose with 20 democrats in the battlefield,... it is long. boeing executives are appearing before shareholders in the chicago today.

investors have plenty to groan about, the company share value has fell about 10% since the crash of an ethiopian airlines plane in march. last week, boeing announced that earnings fell in the first quarter by 21%. earnings fell in the first quarter by 2196. plenty of questions about whether the company did everyone it could to ensure that he 737 max was as safe as possible. there are reports that employees called a whistle—blowers hotline at last managed to report their concerns about the system being investigated. after the meeting, boeing? about the system being investigated. afterthe meeting, boeing? dennis miller and burke was asked if he would resign. this was his response. i'm very focused on safety going forward. as a company, it is important that we have those priorities, less weird i have the right culture. i'm strongly invested in that. my intent is to continue to lead on the front of safety and quality and integrity, that's who we are as a company. i think it's

important to stress that we deeply regret what happened with these accidents, it gets to the core of our company. our business corresponded is in new york for us. 10% fall in your share value, that's a problem, can they get out of this one? boeing executives knew they would be on the back foot when they met with executives in chicago. there has been a pretty smooth ride for dennis miller and the city took over, so for dennis miller and the city took over, so a for dennis miller and the city took over, so a 10% drop, not great but not disastrous. that being said, we are at the other point of this crisis, much of the 103—year—old company is facing. shareholders being told that he thinks is being worked on, everyone wants to know when these planes are going to be

backin when these planes are going to be back in the air. nobody wants to know that more than the company itself which has said that it will be key moving forward for its business. it to suggest there was a link between the two crashes in question remains whether boeing did everything it could to ensure the planes were safe possible. this was what was so important when reporters pressed him again and again about the software fix for the flight systems implicated in both crashes. the software fix is something the company says will address. but when pressed, the chief executive would not go so far to say there was a fall in design. people want to know how much responsibility does bowing before this. as you mentioned, there are whistle— blowers who

before this. as you mentioned, there are whistle—blowers who apparently called into hotline set up by the regulators in the wake of these caches. but early days on what the company trying to move on. christian, we are so glad you had to back, i hope you had a good holiday. we missed you, how rich are you? rich enough, why? because that might be relevant in this next story. someone who might profess to be an expert but it really isn't. some of us expert but it really isn't. some of us have made a career out of that. new research comes to light across nine countries which suggest that the most likely people to engage in this type of behaviour are rich men. i'm so surprise. researchers asked participants to rate their knowledge

of mass knowledge. crucially, three of mass knowledge. crucially, three of those topics were a complete fabrication, proper numbers, subjective scaling, the decorative fractions. those who claimed to have knowledge of those topics were categorised as bs is. the results show that men are more likely than women to fine knowledge. surprisingly, not americans tend to slip into this behaviour more than other english speakers in other parts of the world. who knew? i'm so surprise. i was gobsmacked. this is beyond 100 days from the bbc. coming up. could advances in genetic engineering mean conceiving a baby ina

engineering mean conceiving a baby in a science lab? and the detrimental impacts of screen time on our well—being is. the downsides to scrolling. good evening. some of the best and today has been found across scotland, seen temperatures well into the high teens. those temperatures will dip awake this week as we see an arctic blast by the end of thursday which means that time frost is possible so gardeners beware. we have had that sunshine in eastern areas under the influence of high pressure. the west has seeing the thickest cloud, parts of south—west england and wales, we have had some drizzle. for northern ireland, that rain will pep up, it will turn out to be quite a wet night and relatively mad. ——mild. under starry skies elsewhere, it could be chilly again.

we will see the return of fog and pockets of fog will develop in line. they will be around for the morning rush, for the first hour or two least. watch out for those if you are travelling. it is hill fog and rain, lots of spraying and standing water across northern ireland. by the end of that morning, that is crossing into the south—west of scotland, very different complexion weather for western scotland while eastern areas will continue to see a good deal of dry and quite sunny weather, not as high temperatures as the last couple of days but still pretty warm in the sunshine. further west, wales, the south—west into north—west england, it starts to deteriorate with the well is coming in. but for northern ireland, that rain may clear up later in the day. there was still be some pulses around on our weather front which becomes a very slow moving feature is free tuesday night. still with us on wednesday. the best of the sunshine starts in eastern areas and last there throughout the day. gradually, our weather

fronts will push his way eastwards with sum shall be rain falling on the behind. it will be cool where we have the rain but the sunshine is pretty strong, 16 or 17 for the 1st of may. it will feel pleasant with light wind. but then it changes come thursday. this weather front coming down from it the north, the arctic air is coming behind that, bringing down the risk of some snow showers to the hills, also the possibility of night time frost and a real wind temperatures dipping back into single figures, it will feel even colder.

this is beyond 100 days. i'm katty kay in new york. christian fraser in london. our top stories: kay in new york. christian fraser in london. 0urtop stories: spain's governing socialist party plucked its next move after winning the election, but failing to gain a majority. a video images appearing to show the leader of the so—called islamic state. if authentic, is the first time abu bakr al—baghdadi has been seenin time abu bakr al—baghdadi has been seen in five years. coming up, remembering in the anna's and longest serving senator, who has died at the age of 87 —— indiana's longest serving senator. and could addiction to smartphones be deadly? we will hear what serial scrolling does to the body.

for millions of years, new human beings arrived into this world by pretty much one—way only. but slowly, that could be starting to change. advances in genetic engineering could soon make conceiving newborn babies in a science lab is the norm. doctors would have the ability to systematically screen all mbos for known diseases and use precision editing tools to alter the genes of pre—implanted embryos. but how will the rise of genetic engineering change who we are as individuals, the values that govern society and the values that govern society and the relationships between countries? these are questions addressed in this new book, and the authorjoins us now this new book, and the authorjoins us now from washington. you are looking at the science and ethics in the politics of all this, but they are not always in step, because the science, as we have seen in china, is already there, but the ethical conversation hasn't happened yet. that's exactly right. the science of

genetic engineering is racing forward a blistering pace. if we wa nt to forward a blistering pace. if we want to make sure that this technological revolution is something that helps us rather than hurts us, we need to make sure our values are hurts us, we need to make sure our values are woven hurts us, we need to make sure our values are woven into this process at every step along the way. that is why we need to have a species wide dialogue on the future of human genetic engineering and think about the values we want to bring to bear to help guide this technology. so painta to help guide this technology. so paint a picture of the darwin hacked future for us. where do you see us in ten years in terms of the presence of genetically engineered babies? right now, the average person having a child conceiving through sex has a 3% chance that that child will have some kind of harmful genetic abnormality. as we move towards conceiving our children through ivf and screening the embryos in the lab, we are going to

be able to reduce that risk. and with that process, as we get more co mforta ble with that process, as we get more comfortable with screening embryos outside of the body prior to implementation, then we will use our growing knowledge of the genome to make more and more informed choices. initially connected to health risks, but over time, we will be able to have information about a lot of very intimate human traits like iq and height and personality and other things. with all the strains and pressures on health care budgets, does the ethical moral case for some of the genetic engineering grow?m certainly does in many ways. it's not just certainly does in many ways. it's notjust economics. it is true that the price we are paying to provide lifetime health care, which we must, for people who are born with deadly genetic disorders, is astronomical. if we were able to screen

pre—implanted embryos, we would be able to select embryos that, for example, would create children that didn't die young of terrible genetic diseases. so there are economic benefits to doing that. but more importantly, we would be helping to alleviate a lot of suffering. this is really sensitive stuff. we are touching at the core of what it means to be a human being and that is why we can'tjust think of this asa is why we can'tjust think of this as a scientific or technological issue. we are talking about our core values of humanity, and that is why we need an engaged process for thinking through these issues in a deep way. absolutely, and before us ahead with the technology and the developments, you have to have the ethical or moral conversation first, or at least at the same time. in that sense, is there a danger that geopolitics plays a role in this, that we get involved in some kind of space race within genetics were china and america are trying to get faster than the other? absolutely.

we are already seeing that. the chinese biophysicist who genetic engineered the two little girls who we re engineered the two little girls who were born in china last year, in his proposal to his internal review board in his hospital, he talked about how china, he would bring glory to china and win a nobel prize. there are tremendous national competitiveness benefits, economic benefits for the country or countries that take the lead in this technology. this is very much equivalent to the beginning of the age of the internet. that is why we need to come back to this issue of values. if we let everything run amok and it's anything goes, we could have some very bad outcomes. we have to remember that these are incredible technologies that have the potential to help us live longer, healthier and more robust lives. we have to find a way to optimise the good stuff while

minimising any potential harms. fascinating. jamie metzl. the book is hacking darwin. so interesting. we must do more about this subject, because it is tied up in so many issues. it is tied up in science, geopolitics, ethics and the route of who we are. there was a back lash in china against the doctor who genetic engineer those babies, but you wonder how long it will go on for. in ten years, is this going to be something that people find totally acceptable? i find it something that people find totally acceptable? ifind it kind of scary. iam not acceptable? ifind it kind of scary. i am not an expert on this, so i won't discuss it! a deadly shooting took place at a synagogue near san diego on saturday. 0ne took place at a synagogue near san diego on saturday. one woman died. two other people were injured. a 19—year—old man named asjohn ernest was arrested shortly afterwards in california. a rabbi from the synagogue came face—to—face with the gunmen and was shot at, suffering injuries to his index fingers. he spokein injuries to his index fingers. he spoke in a memorial after the attack. this was not supposed to

happen. this isn't nazi germany. this isn't a pogrom. this is right here, this is our home. this building that we built was supposed to be for love. this building we built was supposed to be to be able to share kindness and love with each other. what is happening? the rabbi, with his hand still banded from the attack. earlier today, with his hand still banded from the attack. earliertoday, president trump tweeted, i spoke to the rabbi at length yesterday, where i extend my condolences and all affected. what a great guy. he had at least one finger blown off and all he wa nted one finger blown off and all he wanted to do was help others. a p pa re ntly wanted to do was help others. apparently he spoke to him for 50 minutes on the phone and it was a very warm conversation. they got on well and the rabbi was pleased that the president spent so long talking to him. i don't want to be cynical about this, but ijust to him. i don't want to be cynical about this, but i just wonder to him. i don't want to be cynical about this, but ijust wonder if to him. i don't want to be cynical about this, but i just wonder if the president would have tweeted that way, had the gunmen been an islamic

terrorist. we have seen a pattern in the past and when there has been an islamic shooter, the outcry from the administration and from the american public has been one that is much more fearful, one that is much more outspoken. i was speaking to people in law enforcement earlier today about what we do with the rise that we are seeing in this country of white nationalist attacks like this that now can'tjust be dismissed as one bad apple, but have to be seen asa one bad apple, but have to be seen as a much more coordinated movement in the united states. and the consent from them is that unless the same tone is taken from the very top about those incidents as it would be taken against attacks by muslim attackers, you miss the opportunity to treat this as seriously as it needs to be treated. there has been this uptick in anti—semitic attacks in the united states, and it does need to be taken seriously. that is not to downplay the phone call that he made to the rabbi. and as you

say, they got on well. the former us republican senator president trump, who played a leading role in dismantling weapons of mass destruction at the end of the cold war, has died in virginia. he was 87. he represented indiana in the senate until 2013, when he was defeated in the primary by a tea party backed candidate. richard lugar served as a chair on the senate committee for foreign relations twice. and he was an opponent of apartheid in south africa and of course of nuclear weapons. barack 0bama awarded him the presidential medal of freedom in 2013 and said lugar‘s legacy was the removal of thousands of missiles, bombers, submarines and warheads so that they no longer pose a threat. end ofan that they no longer pose a threat. end of an era. yeah, that they no longer pose a threat. end ofan era. yeah, a that they no longer pose a threat. end of an era. yeah, a lot of affection for senator lugar in washington on both sides of the aisle. he was universally liked and admired. he had the tractors, of

course, but he harks back to this time when people worked across the aisle to get things done. that was the cold war period and it became harder after the cold war and after the clinton years, but he will be missed. he was instrumental in the end of the cold war and somebody who has been fondly remembered in america today. in other news, sri la nka america today. in other news, sri lanka has banned face coverings in public following the suicide attacks on easter sunday that killed at least 250 and injured hundreds more. some muslim leaders have criticised the ban. the country's president says he is taking the emergency measure on national security grounds. aus grounds. a us cybersecurity official has reiterated his country's security concerns about the chinese telecoms giant huawei. he said the us will have to evaluate we share information if there is what he called an untrustworthy bender in the sg called an untrustworthy bender in the 5g network of any allies. huawei denies that it helps the chinese government to spy. indonesia is moving its capital city away from jakarta, according to the

country's planning minister. the new location is not yet known but state media report one of the front runners is a city which is on the island of borneo. the idea of moving the capital has been raised several times since the country gained independence in 19a5. marine experts say a white whale that has been filmed wearing a harness off the coast of norway probably escaped from the russian navy. the beluga approached fishermen while wearing a gopro camera holder which read, equipment of st petersburg. russia has a naval base in the region and has a naval base in the region and has previously been known to have trained dolphins to perform military roles. that is a beluga whale, isn't it? it's a bit of a giveaway, if it says made in st petersburg on it. we are addicted to our phones, some of us more than others, christian more than everybody. chemically and physiologically, within our body is

the craving for screen time is similarto the craving for screen time is similar to the addictions we develop for cigarettes, drink and other things we depend on. and just like every other damaging addiction, scientists now believe that the phone could be killing us. cortisol, the primary fight or flight hormone, triggers physiological changes within our body such as spikes in blood pressure, heart rate, which i get when i get katty‘s e—mails, and every time we receive these messages, the body was releases small doses of cortisol. if there was occasional, no problem, but we spend hours every week on our phone and we live with this perpetual sense of obligation, which in turn generates unintended personal stress. and stress, as we know, can kill. so here is a look at christian's phone use for the last week. remember, christian was on holiday for two weeks. he spends an average of three hours 11 minutes on his phone on holiday. his phone usage was down 2a% last week in the

second week of his holiday. but still ridiculously high, which does show you the value of two weeks holiday, although we did miss you. less screen time in the second week. here is my record, three hours and seven minutes. i was working! i think i'm clearly far more virtuous and less addicted than you are. we can speak out and teaching fellow at king's college london. her speciality is how digital technology affects our health. i am christian fraser and i am an addict to my phone! what should i do to get off it? the first thing is to think about what you are using it for. everything! i use it to turn my temperature up in my house, to look at my videos on my security camera, everything. but when our society and culture are oriented around our social, family and professional aspects, it is very hard to

differentiate when we are using it professionally or for certain productive purposes, and when we are using it for communication or speciality. the hard thing is that everything is becoming mediated through our screens. we need to be more reflexive about why we are using. you're the professor. have you gone cold turkey?” using. you're the professor. have you gone cold turkey? i have in the past. does it work? yes. you have to think about what you are using it for and you need to compartmentalise yourtime. ifi for and you need to compartmentalise your time. if i am using it to communicate with friends, when does that turn into strolling aimlessly and getting distracted from individual goals? looking at your three hours a day, that is very much within the average of four hours a day that has been published in this study in the states. it is not uncommon. if we study in the states. it is not uncommon. if we are study in the states. it is not uncommon. if we are thinking about four hours a day, how much that is impacting on our lives... that is a day every week, katty, that we are looking at the phone! it is terrifying. it is a lot of time to be distracted from your day—to—day

habits. it is awful. my 13-year-old is even more addicted. we have seen these studies before. ifeel like is even more addicted. we have seen these studies before. i feel like we know this is not good for us. we all need to take tech holidays, whether it's for an hour or a day or a couple of days. what i thought was new about this study, even more alarming was the fact that it can affect us physically and can affect the length of our lives? absolutely. in my research, i found that people who were using phones are a lot to share elements of their lifestyle, found that when they stopped using it, they actually felt a lot of guilt to themselves for not sharing certain aspects of their lifestyle or not commuting with friends and family and colleagues that make not communicating with that. so the companionship can be really helpful for communicating and it is convenient. but the habit is becoming a compulsory part of daily life. that was what came up in my

study. people need to reframe how they look at these devices and what they look at these devices and what they are using it for. i'm basically an optimist and i can't believe as a species we will carry on in this way, it's as much as possible for us to become addicted the way we have become. are we going to get better? are we going to get better at rationing our phone use time flight using in no way that is more effective. christian does not need to be looking at his security camera is 15 hours a day, he just doesn't need to do that.|j he just doesn't need to do that.” think we are but we need to individually look at what we are using it for. we are mediating so many different aspects of our daily lives. as a society, we are becoming more surveillance, more mediated. that kind of understanding that we are using our phones all the time does not mean we will stop using them. we need to be more reflexive and critical about, what am i

getting from this? my feeling more satisfied through social media or correcting through friends and family? is that contributing team to my sense of well— being every day? when you don't find it a useful tool when you don't find it a useful tool, when it becomes a pressurised process, or when you feel competitive and comparative about other peoples lifestyles, that is when you have to take a step back and think, this is doing me no good, it's actually damaging to my mental health be. we don't but it is a serious issue. it affects our children because they take our cues from us. it helps if your colleagues wouldn't use so many e—mails, wouldn't use so many e—mails, wouldn't it? if i don't send you an e—mail, you complain that i don't send your e—mail so i can't win. this is beyond 100 days. two to come on the programme: caught red—handed, why this heading is making life difficult for one very famous television presenter. perhaps more

importantly, for his own life. it's on his phone. -- for his pond life. people who are victims of crime, including right, it will be asked to give the phones to police. police in england and wales will ask victims to sign consent forms which will allow them to look at messages and phone accounts. the search for evidence in the criminal cases has changed beyond all recognition, it now lives in the digital online space. in often highly personal text, photos, e—mails and social media posts. lim allen understands what can happen when that kind of evidence is not passed to the defence, he was falsely accused of rape, the case against him only colla pse rape, the case against him only collapse when text messages from his accuser which proved his innocence we re accuser which proved his innocence were given to his lawyers, days into

his trial. he favoured it to is being asked for their consent to head over mobile devices.” being asked for their consent to head over mobile devices. i can't consider it an invasion of privacy because they may be something in there that assist the defence. police need access otherwise there is no right of two if their child they gone. to ensure our fair trial system, the prosecution must disclose to the defence any evidence gathered by the police that either assist the defence case or undermine the prosecution's. because of the way that we live our lives today, a lot of that evidence is found on our phones. but campaigners are worried. the danger is that it's massively intrusive. it really has an impact on victims of rape who may already be severely traumatised. in effect, it's another violation to traumatised victims. what's more, the danger will deter victims from coming forward. striking the balance

in the digital age for predicting victims and the right to a fair trial is complex. but if the balance is not found, the future of our fertile system may be in jeopardy. —— fertile the final movie in the avengers franchise is set to break the box office record in just franchise is set to break the box office record injust five franchise is set to break the box office record in just five days, estimated at $1.2 billion. the disney blockbuster success has not been limited to the us, more than one quarter of the opening sales was in china where the movie to huge audiences and broke its own records. let's speak now to senior fellow reporter at buzzfeed news who joins us now from hollywood. everyone else has been time to do this, films have not done particularly well, how has avengers done it? there is nothing

else like it. it is the 22nd film produced by marvel film studios. unlike most franchises, it is the sort of 22nd chapter in an ongoing story. most likely, people want to see the season finale of a tv show they have been watching in movie futures for the last if 11 years. will this be the thing that gets people going back? does it help, does it have a knock—on effect on getting people to go back to cinemas? that is said to me that a lot of hollywood has. right now, the only people benefiting from this is the walt disney company, the parent company of marvel studios. but if there is a lot of repeated use, if people go back, they boast that same deal is for other films, nearly posted for other films. that might get them more enticed to go back to the future. i want to see it but it is three hours long, it is a long

time for a movie, isn't it? how do the cinema is reactive that as well because if you have a three hour movie you cannot put many repeat movies on throughout the day? that was the big question for this movie. a lot of able did not think i navy of that length could make the amount of that length could make the amount of money it did. what ended up happening is that the demand was so insatiable, that a lot of theatres just had screenings late into the night or early into the morning. some theatres in the us state of nonstop for the entire weekend just because there was so much demand to see this movie. i think a lot of people wanted to see before spoilers that he looking out at the internet, that he looking out at the internet, that also contributed to the amount of money it made over the weekend.” suppose the reason it isn't news business because we don't many blockbusters of this kind these days. these are the top five grossing films worldwide. avatar still at the top. titanic, if you adjust for inflation, you can also

get gone with the wind on the bottom there. it just shows get gone with the wind on the bottom there. itjust shows you that hollywood does not just there. itjust shows you that hollywood does notjust pump out the blockbuster is very much these days. you have never seen a movie out of the scale of popularity in a very long time. to give you a sense of perspective, it almost doubled the re cord perspective, it almost doubled the record for a global debut that was set by avengers, infinity war last year. when a movie breaks box office re cord year. when a movie breaks box office record by inches, this is by miles. i think it really speaks to the popularity of the marvel studios franchise, also i think, i hunger for a big epic spectacle that people wa nt for a big epic spectacle that people want to go to the movie theatres to be able to see. does it make a difference that it has global appeal? absolutely, it makes a huge

difference. china is now the second largest market in the world. most people are predicting it will become the largest market in the world by the largest market in the world by the end of 2020. i think having movies that play well in every country in the world, especially for movies that have this expensive to make, it's almost a deal—breaker. if you can't get a navy at the skill to be popular everywhere, then you probably shouldn't be making it. —— if you can't get a movie at this scale. i will try and get to see it but there are huge long queues so it might take me on amount of time. i won't know if you are super wealthy are not because there could be something you're not telling me the truth about. i did as you earlier but i did not get an answer on how the holiday went, christian? the holiday went well, i my phone 2a%

less last week. i turned my attention to my new pond in my back garden. yesterday i had a very relaxing day, i went to the garden centre, choose the fish with the children. this morning, i came out of the house to check on the newly installed fish. 0nly, there were no fish. all i could find around the pond were splashy watermarked. panicking, i went to my phone and i looked out the recordings on my newly installed camera and look what i saw. 7:a0am this morning, wandering around the garden. this is precisely why i are good for a security camera during the house referred. this is the kind of intruder that waits and watches and then swipes your prized possession right under your nose. poor children expect when they sad to lose their fish? i'm not taking this lying

down. this is a war. suggestions on twitter. and right at the heron, welcomed the heroin into your life. good evening. some of the best and today has been found across scotland, seen temperatures well into the high teens. those temperatures will dip awake this week as we see an arctic blast by the end of thursday which means that time frost is possible so gardeners beware. we have had that sunshine in eastern areas under the influence of high pressure. the west has seen the thickest cloud, parts of south—west england and wales, we have had some drizzle. for northern ireland, that rain will pep up, it will turn out to be quite a wet night and relatively mild. under starry skies elsewhere, it could be chilly again. we will see the return of fog and pockets of fog will develop inland. they will be around for the morning

rush, for the first hour or two least. watch out for those if you are travelling. it is hill fog and rain, lots of spraying and standing water across northern ireland. by the end of that morning, that is crossing into the south—west of scotland, very different complexion weather for western scotland while eastern areas will continue to see a good deal of dry and quite sunny weather, not as high temperatures as the last couple of days but still pretty warm in the sunshine. further west, wales, the south—west into north—west england, it starts to deteriorate with the rain coming in. but for northern ireland, that rain may clear up later in the day. there will still be some pulses around on our weather front which becomes a very slow moving feature through tuesday night. still with us on wednesday. the best of the sunshine starts in eastern areas and last there throughout the day. gradually, our weather front will push his way

eastwards with showery rain falling on the behind. it will be cool where we have the rain but the sunshine is pretty strong, 16 or 17 for the 1st of may. it will feel pleasant with light wind. but then it changes come thursday. this weather front coming down from the north, the arctic air is coming behind that, bringing down the risk of some snow showers to the hills, also the possibility of night time frost and a real wind chill, temperatures dipping back into single figures, it will feel even colder.
