andy moore reports. in the early hours of this morning a man believed to bejoseph mccann was taken away man believed to bejoseph mccann was ta ken away undercover man believed to bejoseph mccann was taken away undercover in the back of this police car. the suspect is thought was spent several hours up a tree to trained police negotiators. earlier in the evening there was a police pursuit that lead to serious damage to this car. 2 women had been forced into a black car by a man believed to be mccann. police gave chase. after the collision the suspect escaped on foot. the women are said to be shaken but not injured. there had been a nationwide hunt for mccann after police in london offered £21,000 for information leading to his arrest and prosecution. they say he is extremely dangerous, violent man who poses a risk to women and children. the suspected abduction 2 women in their 20s ended in this street where

1of their 20s ended in this street where 1 of the women hit their kidnapper over the head with a bottle. earlier, mccann had tried to take the women to a hospital dashmac hotel in watford. these images were released. he is also wanted over a connection to a 3rd attack in london. leaf police believe he abducted and raped a woman in watford in april. swift action is needed to prevent the loss of up to one million species — that's the warning from scientists ahead of a major assessment of the state of the natural world. the un report, which will be published in paris later today, says humans are to blame for the drastic declines. our global science correspondent rebecca morelle has more. from the oceans to the land. from insects to exotic plants. in every pa rt insects to exotic plants. in every part of the world, nature is in

dramatic decline. it is the focus of a major new un report warning that the planet is facing an ecological crisis. and it is humans who are to blame. areas once rich in nature are being cleared for development. and illegal trade is bringing animals to the brink of extinction and pollution is poisoning the sea. this small patch of land in devon hemmed in by busy roads is refuge for an ant. they were once widespread but as their habitat was shrunk, now this is the only place in england they can be found. this ant is 1 of they can be found. this ant is 1 of the last of its kind. but it is vital for this heathland environment. these insects keep the soil healthy, break down organic matter and our food themselves for birds and small mammals. dashmac mammals. it may be tiny but losing

it would have a huge effect. you don't know when the critical time will come. are we prepared to lose cookers and so on? you get to a time when it is no longer a functioning ecosystem and no longer a living heathland. the report says there is still hope for nature but a global rescue plan must start now. if we fail to act, any species will be left fighting for survival. the electoral commission is calling on the government to change the law to make online political adverts clearly state who has paid for them. the call comes as facebook mounts an operation to try to ensure that it's not used to spread misinformation in the upcoming european elections. our technology correspondent rory cellan—jones reports from dublin. a powerfulforce has been streaming through politics. it's a great campaigning tool, but it can be used to spread misinformation or help foreign powers interfere, and facebook‘s shadow looms ever larger over elections worldwide. back in 2016, facebook was really

downplaying its influence, with mark zuckerberg saying it was crazy to think fake news had had any influence over the election of donald trump. but now, it's changed its tune. and here in dublin, it's getting ready to mount a big operation to oversee its impact on the european elections. at facebook‘s european headquarters, there's a pr offensive underway, with journalists from across the eu invited to see that the company's serious about battling electoral malpractice on its platform. once we find a piece of content that we want to remove, we have the experts in the room who know our community standards. the a0 strong team here include experts who've monitored other polls. among the issues encountered in previous elections are voter suppression — where people are given the wrong information but back in the uk, the electoral commission is impatient for the government to do more. it's been asking since 2003

for a law forcing all online political advertising to be upfront about who's paid. when you see an advertisement in your newsfeed, you want to be able to know there and then do i believe this advert and want it to influence my vote? the key piece of information you need to make that decision is who paid for it. across europe, politicians are preparing for battle, knowing that for good or ill, facebook will be a key weapon in theircampaigns. there's been a brief lull in hostilities between israeli forces and palestinian militants in the gaza strip after two days of worsening violence. unconfirmed reports from a hamas tv station say a ceasefire has been agreed. there's been no word from israel. four israelis and more than twenty palestinians have been killed since the violence erupted. dramatic footage ta ken by a west midlands police helicopter, has shown the moment a car ended up in a river after it was pursued by officers. after a ten minute chase, the suspected stolen car plunged

into a small river in birmingham, and the occupants fled on foot. three teenagers were arrested on suspicion of theft of a motor vehicle. incredible pictures. it's been announced this morning that the runner eliud kipchoge will attempt to make history and break the two—hour marathon barrier. the world—record holder's current best is two hours, one minute and 39 seconds — but he has an even faster unofficial time. 0ur sports editor dan roan reports on the man trying to do something no one has done before. he is already the fastest marathon runner ever. now eliud kipchoge is focused on making the last great barrier in athletics. running 26 miles and under two hours is a mythical target stop but after his fourth london marathon win he told me he wanted to redefine what is possible. i want to make history and to leave a mark in this world. it is

about humanity. if you can believe it and if you work on it and trusting your team. until sir roger bannister proved otherwise right here in oxford exactly 65 years ago, breaking the four—minute mile barrier had seemed impossible. since then, various records have fallen in athletics. but the sub—2 hour marathon is still seen as the ultimate challenge. two years ago, eliud kipchoge missed out by 26 seconds at a specially staged event in italy. it did not count as a world record due to the use of pacemakers. this time i am confident. 0ne pacemakers. this time i am confident. one thing is that i am enjoying my experience from italy. the hope is for london to host the next attempt in autumn. the latest

sports adventure. the billionaires move into cycling has been controversial with protest launching the —— marring the launch of his cycle tea m. the —— marring the launch of his cycle team. people will call itjust a bit of promotion. it is unthinkable for any normal human being to run at that pace. it is quite extraordinary. but if anybody could do it, he can. eliud kipchoge's attempt will be open to tens of thousands of supporters. hoping that their support will help him push the limits of human performance. unbelievable. he started doing marathons because he did not make the olympic team. and you get a sense of how fast he is. yes. really fast, it is almost unbelievable. good morning. it is astonishing when you watch them go first. and they

keep going and they keep going. we will see if he can do that, break the magic two hour barrier. it is the magic two hour barrier. it is the race that nobody wants to win, the race that nobody wants to win, the race that nobody wants to win, the race for fourth. manchester united have missed out on qualification for the champions league after drawing one all at relegated huddersfield. isaac mbenza equalised after scott mctominay had put united ahead. the result means united cannot now finish in the top four and will have to settle for europa league football next season. eoin morgan hit an unbeaten 57 as england beat pakistan in a one off t20 international in cardiff. the two sides will now play a one—day series ahead of the world cup that starts later this month judd trump won 8 frames in a row control to take complete control of the world snooker championship final in sheffield. he leads john higgins 12—5, it's the first to 18 when play resumes this afternoon less than 2a hours after losing the morocco 0pen final, the british number1johanna konta beat alison riske in the first round of the madrid 0pen.

she'll play reigning french open champion simona halep tomorrow. it will get more difficult for her and we will have more detail when we look through the papers. what more could you possibly want on a bank holiday morning other than carol in a beautiful location with lots of exciting things coming up. bless you, good morning, both of you. good morning to you if you are watching at home. what a gorgeous start to the day it is in blenheim palace. it is pretty chilly as it is across many areas this morning, especially if you are hanging around outside. you can see this stunning view behind me stop as we go through the morning we will have newborn lambs. i have already seen them, they are so cute. later we will be looking at some jousting, so lots happening this morning at blenheim

palace. talking of being a chilly start, it certainly is, and the weather forecast for today is a chilly start for most of us, and for many of us it will be dry. variable amounts of cloud, there will also be some showers, and later in the day there could be quite heavy, especially across nottinghamshire and east anglia. first thing this morning we have a weather front crossing scotland. it is across parts of stirlingshire, heading down towards lothian and the borderlands at the moment. that will sink further south, getting into northern ireland and continuing into the midlands and east anglia. in scotla nd midlands and east anglia. in scotland it is windy across shetland, but you will also find some showers across the north of scotland, north of the great glen, wintry in the hills. as we come south that will brighten up and for northern england and northern ireland, a cloudy day with some showers continuing to push south into the midlands and east anglia. for southern counties something brighter, variable amounts of cloud with a bit more cloud coming in

across the south—west later, and chilly across the north sea coastline. through the evening and overnight, the winds will ease across shetland, and there will be a few showers. it will be a fairly cloudy night as well, and temperatures in the highlands, in sheltered glens, falling as low as -2' sheltered glens, falling as low as -2, -3 sheltered glens, falling as low as —2, —3 or “11, a touch of frost for you. tomorrow will be fairly cloudy, quite showery at times. some of the showers could potentially be heavy, cool down the north sea coastline and later in the day some rain will arrive into the south—west of england. that is because we have an area of low pressure coming in with its attendant fronts, and that will bring more substantial rain across england and wales, possibly into southern scotland during the course of wednesday. if you are a farmer or a grower and you have been hanging around for some rain, wednesday is the day for that. for the rest of scotla nd the day for that. for the rest of scotland and northern ireland, something drier and brighter, still

with some showers around. temperatures in the south getting up to for 10 degrees. as we move north, it will be that bit lower. as we go through the rest of the week, the forecast is a fairly breezy one. it will be fairly unsettled, and at the moment it is looking like we will almost have an action replay as we head on back into next weekend. so what we have had this weekend, it looks like we're going to see next weekend. but of course, that is a long way off, and that could change. great to hear from you, i long way off, and that could change. great to hearfrom you, i cannot wait for the jousting. jousting and lambs we have been promised from carol, what more could you want? let's take a look at today's papers. the times is among the papers to lead on cross—party talks between labour and the conservatives. it says more than 100 tories warned the prime minister not to cave in to labour, while threatening they would block a softer brexit. the daily telegraph carries a recent image of convicted extremist anjem choudary leaving a corner shop

following his release from prison. it says security services are concerned that the banned islamist group he once led poses a renewed threat to national security. three quarters of maternity units do not have consultants on—site outside of office hours, the daily mail reports. it claims women are often left in the hands of midwives and exhausted junior doctors if they give birth during the evening or over the weekend, leaving them at risk. the sun seems to be waiting in anticipation for the birth of the duke and duchess of sussex's first child. the paper suggests the royal couple were among fans watching the bbc drama line of duty, and jokes the gripping finale could induce the seventh in line to the throne.

that show is responsible for a lot of things, but that is probably quite an extreme claim.|j of things, but that is probably quite an extreme claim. i am a couple of seasons behind. sorry, you are not going to get away from it. who is that? it is the race for fourth. i have this image in my head ofa fourth. i have this image in my head of a load of clowns, you know in those cars, and the puff of smoke comes out the bonnet? that is the race for fourth, and comes out the bonnet? that is the race forfourth, and manchester united had an outside chance. they blew it by drawing at huddersfield. the manager says several players have played their last game for the club, possibly pogba, who is trying to hide under his kit. he will be down to about £300,000 a week.

united throw it away, going with a similar theme this morning, united simply imploding, they have been on this terrible run of form since the manager was given the job full—time. gary neville is never shy in coming forward. he says 0le needs to dismantle this piece by piece. there is nothing about this united team i like, ouch. 0le admits united do not deserve champions league spot. chelsea have third, and spurs look like they have the final champions league spot as well. and a story about the marathon. guinness took to twitter in solidarity with a runner who was wearing scrubs instead of

what was thought to be a nurse's uniform, as in address. they are defining a traditional pinafore type. jessica completed last weekend's race in three hours, eight minutes and 22 seconds, what looked to be the quickest time for a woman dressed as a nurse. the rules say it must include a blue and white dress, pinafore, apron and cap. that is ridiculous. can i show you some cute dogs though? if you are still under the duvet, you might want to stay there, because it is pretty freezing, as carol was saying. these are the 16 rottweiler puppies born. a scan initially showed just six. i don't know how you managed to miss ten in yvette scan, but nonetheless they were expecting six and they got 16, so they have been working around the clock, it says, to make sure that they are all fed. i like that

one there, that is basically how i feel this morning. two all are well, apparently. they were born near blackpool this morning. they are going to keep one, so the rest are up going to keep one, so the rest are upfor going to keep one, so the rest are up for sale. it is a condition that affects as many as one in 12 boys, but there are fears that many colourblind children are still not being properly diagnosed, leading to calls for more screening. yes, but it's not all bad news for those with the condition, as technology is helping with job prospects. breakfast‘s tim muffet has been to meet the world's first colourblind tube driver. please stand clear and mind the doors. stand clear and mind the doors. stand clear and mind the doors. i have a colour vision deficiency, more commonly known as colourblindness. it's hard for me to distinguish between red and green.

so you might wonder how alex is allowed to drive a london underground train. until recently, he wouldn't have been, because he could have mixed up red and green signals. it can, you know, hold your career in terms of being a pilot, an electrician, a train driver, obviously. and there should be more education about it, and maybe look for more solutions. on the jubilee line, that has been possible. the signal is — used to be the lights we re signal is — used to be the lights were here and i would have to stop at these lights. but this allows me to completely drive the train without any need for any signalling. asiam without any need for any signalling. as i am driving, yellow box will be pushing up, let the speed indicate, but i can now not go past that red hand. now that we have moved over to more of an automatic operation, we don't actually need our drivers to be able to tell the difference between red and green lights now. we should be looking for ways that we can help people to work, regardless of any issues that they might have been born with. and that's pretty much on the right—hand side of the screen how most colourblind people see the world. so you can see it's pretty murky... along with one in 12

males, marcus is colourblind. these two colours here, i have difficulty with. i thought this whole side was correct. that's from three years ago, rememberthat? correct. that's from three years ago, remember that? colourblindness happens when three cells in the eyes are missing or don't work properly, but the challenges posed by these genetic faults, which is far more common in men, go way beyond rubik ‘s cube ‘s. common in men, go way beyond rubik 's cube 's. i did this worksheet in year1 's cube 's. i did this worksheet in year 1 where you 's cube 's. i did this worksheet in year1where you had to colour in the different balloons. 0bviously year1where you had to colour in the different balloons. obviously i thought i'd done it right, but i hadn't, and my teacher marked me down for that. if colourblindness is not actually picked a very early e, not actually picked a very early age, children can be labelled naughty or slow or, you know, unruly. the department of education says it doesn't consider colourblindness a special educational need or disability. marie wants that changed, and for

mandatory screenings to take place in all schools. many of the estimated 2 million people who have the condition are never diagnosed. sinead agrees. she has two boys who are colourblind. so many resources now are colour based, with ipads and all of the printed colour material in the classroom. this has consequences for children, both in terms of their personal self—development and their education. how old are you, flynn? sinead's children were diagnosed here at the university of newcastle medical school, and while local authorities do deliver eye checks for young children, there is no routine screening for colourblindness. many believe its impact is being overlooked. we will talk more about that later and the implications for people with colourblindness, what changes are being made to make it a little easier to get through everyday life. you are watching breakfast from bbc news. still to come this morning: did

you know that it is 100 years since pilates was invented, by a german prisoner on the isle of man? rick faragher is finding out more for us this morning. it is going to be a fascinating... i think a fascinating couple of hours. it is indeed. i am stood in the very field where pilates was interned. he was one of 23,000 men held here during the first world war. i am just beside the town of peel in the isle of man. he would have been here for 3.5 years and it was here that he mastered his techniques. but who wasjoseph pilates, he mastered his techniques. but who was joseph pilates, and he mastered his techniques. but who wasjoseph pilates, and we will explore as well the methods that he created, and how that has influenced millions of people around the world. we will also be speaking to descendants of people who were interned with joseph descendants of people who were interned withjoseph100 years ago. so all that to come later in the programme. time now to get the news,

travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news, i'm charlotte franks. a murder investigation has been launched after a 52—year—old man was killed by a car in leytonstone in east london. the met police say the collision appears to have been a deliberate act by the driver of the car, after an earlier altercation. another man was also hit and is in hospital with serious but non—life—threatening injuries. as muslims across the world begin the month—long fast of ramadan, one community in south london is trying to revive the art of sighting the new moon, which determines when the fast begins. members of a mosque in purley are taking part in the project known as hilal by setting up sighting points across the uk. cloudy weather in this country often means the start of ramadan is determined by hilal sightings in other countries. we know that hilal is to the left of

the setting of the sun, and the shape of the hilal will be exactly opposite to the location. so we know where exactly we will see the hilal. so we come here, but now our problem as it is totally cloudy. and this is one of the challenges we have yet in the uk. an author from london has written a special series of books to help children deal with mental health issues in the classroom. scott cranfield is now visiting schools across the capital to tell them the stories of the wise bear. they are aimed at five to 11—year—olds, to help them avoid emotional disorders later in life. let's take a look at the travel situation now. 0n the tube there are a few issues this morning with a planned closure on the bakerloo line and part closures on the district and hammersmith and city lines, and the 0verg round. 0n the trains, euston station is closed, restricting services on london north western and virgin trains west coast. 0nto the roads, the marylebone flyover flowing well

this morning, as you can see from the camera. in tottenham wilbury way is blocked in both directions due to a burst watermain at derwent avenue. good morning. we may not have the heat for this bank holiday monday, but there's a lot of dry weather in the forecast, and most of us should get to see some sunshine at some point. i think the best of any brightness will be through this morning. a lot of dry weather around, but will start to see that cloud increase as we head through the afternoon, ringing the chance of an isolated shower. most places should remain dry. the winds are light, but underneath the cloud, it will feel cool, with temperatures below average for the time of year. highs ofjust 12 below average for the time of year. highs of just 12 celsius. below average for the time of year. highs ofjust 12 celsius. for most of us, then, it will be a fine into the day. we will have a few clear spells overnight, but that cloud never too far away, and once again the chance of an isolated shower. temperatures shouldn't fall as low as they have done recently. we're

looking at lows of around four celsius. tuesday looks like being a very similar day. quite a bit of cloud around, but some bright spells at times. as we head into wednesday, though, it looks like we're in for a speu though, it looks like we're in for a spell of wet and windy weather. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. now though, it's back to sally and ben. bye for now. hello this is breakfast with ben thompson and sally nugent. we'll bring you all the latest news and sport in a moment, but also on breakfast this morning: as the un warns that one million species are facing extinction, we're talking to experts throughout the morning who tell us why humans must change their ways. dr alex from love island fame will be with us later — he's helping students learn how to cope with exam stress as part of the bbc bitesize team. and millions of us tuned into last night's final line of duty episode — we'll talk to actor maya sondhi, aka pc maneet bindra, about why this series has been such

a hit. good morning. here's a summary of today's main stories from bbc news. it's now known that 41 people were killed when a russian passenger plane caught fire during an emergency landing at sheremetyevo airport in moscow. dramatic images show passengers using emergency exit slides to escape the burning aircraft. the aeroflot flight had been heading for murmansk with 78 people on board shortly before the distress call was made. president putin has ordered a full investigation. police hunting a fugitive over the abduction and rapes of three women in and around london, have arrested a man after the abduction of two other women in cheshire. following a car chase and police searches overnight, it's believed thatjoseph mccann was arrested in the early hours of this morning after he was found up a tree on a rural lane near congleton.

swift action is needed to prevent the loss of up to one million species — that's the warning from scientists ahead of a major assessment of the state of the natural world. the un report, which will be published in paris later today, says humans are to blame for the drastic declines. current research shows species are already disappearing at their fastest ever rate. the electoral commission is calling on the government to change the law to make online political adverts clearly state who has paid for them. it first called for a change in the law sixteen years ago and has now renewed its demand. the call comes as facebook mounts an operation to try to ensure that it's not used to spread misinformation in the upcoming european elections. there's been a brief lull in hostilities between israeli forces and palestinian militants in the gaza strip after two days of worsening violence. unconfirmed reports from a hamas tv station say a ceasefire has been agreed.

there's been no word from israel. four israelis and more than twenty palestinians have been killed since the violence erupted. thousands lined the streets of bangkok yesterday to watch the newly crowned king of thailand being carried through the capital in a four—mile royal procession. it was his first public appearance since being crowned in an elaborate ceremony on sunday. he is thailand's first new king in nearly seven decades. the organisers of belfast city marathon have apologised after admitting the course was almost a third of a mile longer than it should have been. more than 5,000 athletes took part in yesterday's race, and suspicions about the distance were raised soon afterwards. it's been blamed on human error — with officials saying the lead car diverted from the route. 0h, oh, my goodness. what are they? will

be cushions —— mac three cushions, obviously. —— whoopee cushions. -- whoopee cushions. some people just do one marathon in their life and to do one that was even longer than usual. you would just hope that people did not give up thinking that they would not make it stop this weekend just gone, the emotions for some fans involved in this race for the top four. the highs and lows. some thought they had blown it because they could have guaranteed a top fourfinish but because they could have guaranteed a top four finish but they imploded at bournemouth and lost stop gave hope

to chelsea, and the rest of the pack but only chelsea got it right. man united have really blown it. 0le gunnar solskjaer says the europa league is the right place for manchester united, he says he couldn't fault his players attitude and effort, but they just weren't good enough. they were held to a 1—1 draw at bottom club huddersfield. scott mctominay had given united the lead but isaac mbenza equalised for the releagtaed terriers. —— relegated terriers. united cannot now finish in the top four and will have to settle for europa league football next season, the second tier of european competition. we haven't deserved to be top four. we've chased the pack. we've been given chances. the league is so tight. it's so — it's a good league, it's loads of good teams, and when we got the opportunities, we weren't able to really grab them. and today was just a confirmation of a long season, 'cause in the end, the table doesn't lie. arsenal look to have

blown their chance of champions league qualification thriough a top four finish, league qualification through a top four finish, that's after they were also held 1—1 against brighton at home. glenn murray scored their equaliser from the spot. the gunners need an eight goal swing on the final day to finish above spurs on goal difference in fourth which is unlikely, so they'll have try and qualify for the champions league by winning the europa league. they are in the semifinals of that. we know it's going to be difficult, and that has happened. and after that, our focus is the republic, and we can do something important. chelsea didn't fluff their lines in the race for a top fourfinish, they've done it after beating watford 3—0. gonzalo higuain wrapped up the victory with a cute finish, following goals from ruben loftus cheek and david luiz. they are third and like arsenal

they are also in the semi—finals of europa league but winning that is less important now for them. we have to go there to try to win. probably, as i say, at the beginning of the season we have to fight to the last minute of the last match. it's leicester on the final day for chelsea, and that's who manchester city face tonight. the title is in their hands, win at the emirates and they will move one point clear of liverpool again with a trip to brighton on the final day. leicester still have a bit to play for, the chance of europa league football next season, so they're not going to roll over. i cannot imagine that leicester would come here for a holiday. maybe they are looking for a chance to

finish with a better result so in the end i think a lot will happen. they will try to make a good game. the championship season is over, norwich will come up as champions after they beat aston villa. the big issue to be resolved yesterday was the final play—off spot and that's gone to derby county who managed to hold on to sixth. they had to beat west brom otherwise middlesbrough would have taken their spot — they won 3—1. frank lampard's side will take on leeds in the play—off semi—final, west brom play villa. steven gerrard says he's running out of ideas when it comes to improving his rangers players' discipline on the pitch, that's after their 12th red card of the season. they won their match against hibs1—0, jermain defoe with the goaljust before half time — rangers were already sure of a second placed finish. but their keeper allan mcgregor was sent off for that kick with just minutes remaining. he'll miss next week's old firm match against celtic. gerrard says he might have start fining players who get red cards.

england beat pakistan in a one off t20 in cardiff, but the match may be remembered for an extraordinary incident. bowler david willey fortunately avoided serious injury when the ground gave way under him and a huge hole appeared in the turf. apparently it was the result of a pitch box popping up after contact, and ground staff had to swiftly repair the damage. as for the match, eoin morgan's unbeaten 57 led england to a seven wicket win. england face pakistan in a one day series next, in the lead up to a home world cup later this month. now to the final of the world snooker championship in sheffield. it'sjudd trump in complete control going into the second day of the final, he leadsjohn higgins by 12 frames to five. play gets back under way at the crucible at 2 o'clock and its live on bbc two.

i watched some of this yesterday, the first 218 it is. bath are on the verge of a european champions cup place after a bonus point win over wasps. three late tries, including two from zach mercer and this from joe cokanasiga helped them to a 29—17 victory. bath are now a point ahead of seventh—placed sale with a game to play. less than 2a hours after losing the morocco 0pen final, jo konta hot—footed over to spain for the madrid 0pen. the british number one beat alison riske. konta finished off the american with an ace, to seal a 6—4, 6—1win. she will face reigning french open champion simona halep in the second round tomorrow. after four days of racing, the tour de yorkshire finished on the streets of leeds. greg van avermaet won the final stage from halifax to the city centre. chris lawless in the blue leaders

jersey won the overall classification for team ineos, formerly team sky, to mark a good start to life for the rebranded cycling team. britain's piggy french won the badminton horse trials, her first major title. riding a mare called vanir kamira, french beat overnight leader 0liver townend by a single time fault in a dramatic final show—jumping phase. it was a good week for british riders with 6 finishing in the top ten. you get so used to congratulating people and telling yourself to be happy but when you go home and you keep going. she is such an amazing little mare. she would annihilate this track at home every time.

little mare. she would annihilate this track at home every timelj little mare. she would annihilate this track at home every time. i was totally distracted i that gorgeous child. her name is georgina but everybody knows her as a gift. i think she was happy. —— knows her as piggy- what do you do if you're an international multi—millon pound technology company that can't get the staff it needs? the boss of one software company has decided on a bit of diy, starting an academy in his home—town of sheffield to train the tech moguls of tomorrow. danni hewson reports. if you don't know what you are going to do you have to simply ride the wave and know where you have to go. it is definitely a difficult decision but with technology there are many options. like thousands of 16 and 17 —year—olds, these four stu d e nts 16 and 17 —year—olds, these four students try to figure out what to do with their life. it is our future, basically. how technology

will be produced and made and our imagination can be used for those ideas. i struggled at times, wondering what i wanted to do but most of the time i think stuff with computers. there are 600,000 vacancies and there is big demand. the cost of the economy of all those unfilled jobs is around £63 billion a year. you are dealing with a csv file which is tiny data. this is dave richards, tech royalty. he started a massive company in silicon valley 1a years ago. but he wa nted silicon valley 1a years ago. but he wanted a base here in sheffield. finding staff has been an issue. education and ambition are huge hurdles. technology can democratise, can level the playing field as it did for me or it can create huge

gaps where people get left behind. i wa nt to gaps where people get left behind. i want to make sure we have an even playing field where people from all areas of society have the same chances as those from the upper echelon. his solution, e.g. 20 stu d e nts echelon. his solution, e.g. 20 students get us place at his specialist academy here at sheffield couege specialist academy here at sheffield college and a guaranteed interview at his company. but why can't the uk deliver what he needs? we have an opportunity here to get us some mentoring. to get people enthusiastic about working in this industry. and many students at this couege industry. and many students at this college could take this route but they don't know enough. to have a project like this offers something different. it is notjust classroom —based regular that it is experiential learning that could make a difference to young people who may not have thought of this. the department of education says they are creating opportunities for

collaborations between college, university and business to address skill gaps. but for smaller tech firms it is taking too long. it is harder. there are more and more people at larger companies and there are not enough people to go around. previously, five, ten, years ago you could get people quickly. now it can ta ke could get people quickly. now it can take up to eight months. as these stu d e nts take up to eight months. as these students get ready to head into the world of work, their dreams of a job intact do not seem so far—fetched. business will have to look to more schemes like this if they want to fill their own skills gap. while you have been watching that, we have been watching the most gorgeous sites, which is carole, obviously, but carole at blenheim, with lambs. good morning. you have made some friends, haven't you? —— carol. good morning, everyone. look

at this wee man. he is less than 12 hours old. isn't he beautiful, and he is so well—behaved, as well. but there is a serious reason for holding him. let's introduce you to charles, who is the head shepherd here. good morning. tell us about the charity that you are involved with at blenheim this year. well, we are working with a charity called farmability, who help us with all sorts ofjobs, building lambing pens, helping us during lambing, so moving the ewes and lambs and taking them back to the fields, and generally helping. it is great to see these young people enjoying themselves and getting involved. so how does it help them? two i think it just enables how does it help them? two i think itjust enables them to build their confidence, to do things. they have

some sort of learning or physical disabilities, and autism, and it just enables them to build their characters. so how often do they come here, charles? 21 day a week, which is great. he is probably hungry, he has been very good. thank you very much for letting me hold the lamb. i will pass him back to you so he is not too distressed. goodbye, little chap. he is so cute. the weather this morning, if you are just stepping outside, it is a chilly start to the day. at blenheim it is about three degrees at the moment, but indicates bridge it is chilly. it will be dry for many, having said that, some showers will be heavy across nottinghamshire and east anglia in particular. so we have a weather front crossing southern scotland, ringing some showery outbreaks of rain anywhere from stirlingshire down towards

lothian and the borders. through the day that will sink south, getting into northern ireland and northern england, later into the midlands and east anglia. for scotland, we have showers to the north of the great glen, wintry down to 300m. it will brighten up later, and later, again, across the very far north of england we might see some brightness. much of england and wales will be cloudy, and that weather front producing showers. they are showers, so we will not all see them. across southern counties into the south—west, some sunny skies. still at times quite a bit of cloud. as we head on through the evening and overnight, the wind in shetland will start to ease. some cloud around it, and we will have some showers. that leads us into tomorrow, another fairly cloudy day with some showers around. later in the day the cloud will thicken in the south—west of england and we will see the arrival of some rain. the wind will

strengthen here later on to gust at 45 mph. a cool day, especially along the north sea coastline. so tuesday into wednesday we have low pressure coming our way, with its attendant fronts, bringing rain across england, wales and southern scotland. still gusty winds in the south—west, which will move across southern counties doing the course of wednesday, and if you are a farmer or grower who has been crying out for some rain, you are in luck. it is coming our way on wednesday across england, wales, and as i mentioned, southern scotland. for the rest of england and scotland, temperatures up to 15 degrees in the south, but progressively they will bea south, but progressively they will be a little bit lower as we head further north. as for the rest of the week, the theme remains fairly u nsettled. the week, the theme remains fairly unsettled. it will not be wet all the time, but there will be some showers, some sunshine, and it will be breezy. and it still will be cool

for the time of year. that we lamb was just the cutest wee man. i was holding him for quite a long time before you came to me, and he was just looking up and giving me a wee lick. we were watching, i can safely say he liked you as much as you liked him. i think the feeling was mutual. it is lovely to see you. see you again soon. that little bleat when she handed him over. we will be back with carole later. —— carol. now, how is your posture? any aches and pains? perhaps you'd like a stronger core. well, if so, then pilates might be the answer. millions of people worldwide are already benefitting from it, but not many know it started here in the uk. we can now go live to the isle of man and join our reporter rick faragher, who is at the very

site that inspired it. yes, good morning. iamjust yes, good morning. iam just outside the town of peel in the isle of man. this is where sheep call home, but if we were to turn the clock back 100 years, this was the site of an enormous world war i internment camp. it was home to about 23,000 men over the course of five years. 0ne name in particular stands out. a young german fascinated by health and physical exercise. this name was joseph pilates, and this is this incredible story. the great war had started. patriotism swept the streets of britain. among the proudest were people who weren't born here, but there was a problem. the government was suspicious. in 1914, the aliens restrictions act was passed. huge numbers of european nationals were

sent to internment camps. these fields in the isle of man form part of the largest. 0ver fields in the isle of man form part of the largest. over five years, more than 30,000 men were in interned at this farm in the village. there were some that had been living in britain for a very long time, and some actually had sons who were old enough to fight for britain. but then you had other men who were interned here who had sons fighting for germany, they were very much pro— german. sons fighting for germany, they were very much pro- german. among the internees was a young german called joseph pilates. he was fascinated with exercise, and how the human body moved. conditions in the camp we re body moved. conditions in the camp were cramped. this hut is one of the very few that still exist. it is now a shop. joseph would have lived here with about 30 other men. there wasn't always much room to exercise, but there was inspiration. we hear stories that he based a lot of the original method on the movement of

animals. we do believe that there we re animals. we do believe that there were metal beds and there were springs in the camp, and that he started working with this equipment, designing this equipment and exercises, right here in this field, which is really amazing to be standing in. it is believe there are more than1 standing in. it is believe there are more than 1 million descendants of the men who were held here. my great, great grandfather, he moved from germany to england with this wife in the 1880s. they eventually settled in merseyside. they had had five children, and he was sent there. now it is the 100 years anniversary from it, i think it is a very fitting time to remember these men and their stories, and how it did affect their lives and their families. 100 years ago, the camp closed. poigna nt families. 100 years ago, the camp closed. poignant reminders of its legacy remain. in 1919, joseph left here for good. a century on, the ideas first formed in these manx fields are used by pilates

enthusiasts in all four corners of the world. so that was the story ofjoseph pilates, and just inside this marquee, there are lots of fit, strong, flexible looking people. there's a pilates class taking place. let's see if we can go and see is involved. 0ne place. let's see if we can go and see is involved. one of them is roberta. if we could take you aside for one second. you have come here from new york, you are an international pilates teacher and you actually teach pilates in a fascinating building. what can you tell me about that? yes, i do. i teachin tell me about that? yes, i do. i teach in the space where when joe pilates went to america, he opened this first studio. so he took it to new york in the very studio where you now teach. yes. we will come back to you in just a moment, because i need to get some advice

from you injustice act. there are also people involved back here who have very strong connections to this site. if i can bring you in here for one second, crystal. you are taking pa rt one second, crystal. you are taking part in this pilates class but you have a strong connection to this very ground, don't you?” have a strong connection to this very ground, don't you? i do, my great uncle was here during the first world war, i am not sure for how long. although i didn't realise, he was here when i came to live in the isle of man. fast forward 100 yea rs, the isle of man. fast forward 100 years, you are now here doing pilates, and you have moved to the isle of man by coincidence. it is by complete coincidence, my husband wanted to live in the isle of man, and we came here. my parents came to visit and asked where it was, and i realised then that there must be some reason for that, and my father said to me that your great uncle was here in the first world war.

fascinating. and we will be speaking to other people who are descendants of the men who stayed here. as you can see, plenty of people taking pa rt can see, plenty of people taking part in this today. i don't think i'm quite that flexible, but if you come back to me later in the programme, i promise i will give it a go. programme, i promise i will give it ago.i programme, i promise i will give it a go. i will start with something easy and move onto something a bit more advanced, like this, but i don't my hamstrings can quite take that. it is mandatory. we will be back later. do you think we should perhaps have a go? i want to know that movement was. i didn't know if it was a pilates movement, but a p pa re ntly it was a pilates movement, but apparently it is. you are watching breakfast from bbc news. still to come this morning: it is a condition affecting one in 12 boys, but many people who are colourblind never even realise it. now, campaigners are calling for more testing. that's after 8:30am.

time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news, i'm charlotte franks. a murder investigation has been launched after a 52—year—old man was killed by a car in leytonstone in east london. the met police say the collision appears to have been a deliberate act by the driver of the car, after an earlier altercation. another man was also hit, and is in hospital with serious but non—life—threatening injuries. as muslims across the world begin the month—long fast of ramadan, one community in south london is trying to revive the art of sighting the new moon, or hilal, which determines when the fast begins. members of a mosque in purley are taking part in the project by setting up sighting points across the uk. cloudy weather in this country often means the start of ramadan is determined by hilal

sightings abroad. we know that hilal is to the left of the setting of the sun, and the shape of the hilal will be exactly opposite to the location. so we know where exactly to see the hilal, so we desire ot come here, but now our problem is it's totally cloudy. and this is one of the challenges we have yet in the uk. an author from london has written a special series of books to help children deal with mental health issues in the classroom. scott cranfield is now visiting schools across the capital to tell them the stories of the wise bear. they are aimed at 5 to 11—year—olds, to help them avoid emotional disorders later in life. let's take a look at the travel situation now. 0n the tube, there are a few issues this morning, with a planned closure on the bakerloo line and part—closures on the district and hammersmith and city lines and the 0verg round.

0n the trains, euston station is closed, restricting services on london north western and virgin trains west coast. 0nto the roads: the marylebone flyover flowing well this morning, as you can see from the camera. and there's a collision at blackwall tunnel northern approach, but traffic is coping well. now the weather, with mel coles. good morning. we may not have the heat for this bank holiday monday, but there's a lot of dry weather in the forecast, and most of us should get to see some sunshine at some point. i think the best of any brightness will be through this morning. a lot of dry weather around, but we'll start to see that cloud increase as we head through the afternoon, bringing the chance of an isolated shower. but most places should remain dry. the winds are light, but underneath the cloud, it will feel cool, with temperatures below average for the time of year. highs of just 12 celsius. for most of us, then, it will be a fine end to the day. we will have a few clear spells overnight, but that cloud never too far away, and once again the chance

of an isolated shower. temperatures shouldn't fall as low as they have done recently. we're looking at lows of around four celsius. tuesday looks like being a very similar day. quite a bit of cloud around, but some bright spells at times. as we head into wednesday, though, it looks like we're in for a spell of wet and windy weather. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom in half an hour. now, though, it's back to sally and ben. bye for now. good morning, welcome to breakfast with ben thompson and sally nugent. 0ur headlines today: more than 40 people are now dead, after a russian plane makes an emergency landing in flames. police hunting the fugitive joseph mccann for a series of abductions and rapes have arrested a man in cheshire in the early hours of this morning. nature on the brink — the destructive force of humans is laid bare, in the world's most comprehensive report into our natural world. there's misery for

manchester united. they miss out on champions league football next season after being held by relegated huddersfield. it was also a bad day for arsenal. the highest level is the individual codenamed h. h is for 'heart stopping'. we'll speak to one of the stars of line of duty, as the most watched show of the year comes to a gripping end. good morning. it is certainly not h for hot because it is a chilly start to the day here at blenheim palace and across the uk. later we will show you some jousting and some lambs and the forecast today will be cloudy with sunny spells and showers pushing south. it's monday the sixth of may. our top story. it's now known that 41 people were killed after a russian plane made an emergency landing and burst into flames at one

of moscow's main airports. dramatic images show passengers using emergency exit slides to escape the burning aeroflot aircraft, which was carrying 73 people and five crew. 0ne witness said it was a "miracle" anyone escaped. 0ur moscow correspondent steve rosenberg, reports. caught on camera, the final dramatic moments of flight 1492. the aeroflot jet exploded in a fireball, during an emergency landing at moscow's sheremetyevo airport. by the time it had come to a standstill, the plane was engulfed in flames. on board the burning aircraft, 78 passengers and crew. there was a desperate rush to escape from the inferno. at the front of the plane, the inflatable slide saved some. people leapt onto the chute and ran to safety. but not everyone got out of this alive. it's feared that more than 40 people

may have been killed. dimitri survived the crash. asked whether he thought the plane had been hit by lightning, he replied, "yes, maybe. i saw a white flash." emergency teams fought the blaze and helped the injured. the plane, a sukhoi superjet, had taken off from moscow airport bound for murmansk, but very quickly, it developed technical problems. the crew had issued a distress signal. the pilots had decided they had no choice but to bring the aircraft down. president putin offered his condolences to the families of the dead, and the kremlin leader ordered a full investigation to find out why this flight had ended in disaster. steve rosenberg, bbc news, moscow. police hunting a fugitive over the abduction and rapes of three women in and around london, have arrested a man after the abduction of two other women in cheshire.

following a car chase and police searches overnight, it's believed thatjoseph mccann was arrested in the early hours of this morning. andy moore reports. in the early hours of this morning, a man believed to bejoseph mccann was taken away undercover in the back of this police car. the suspect is thought to have spent several hours up a tree talking to trained police negotiators. earlier in the evening there was a police pursuit that lead to serious damage to this car. two women had been forced into a black car by a man believed to be mccann. police gave chase. after the collision the suspect escaped on foot. the women are said to be extremely shaken but not injured. there had been a nationwide hunt for mccann after police in london offered £20,000 for information leading to his arrest and prosecution.

they said he is extremely dangerous, a violent man who poses a risk to women and children. the suspected abduction of two women in their 20s ended in this street when one of them hit their kidnapper over the head with a bottle. nearby builders then rescued them. earlier, mccann had tried to take the women to a hotel in watford. the met police issued these cctv images. he is also wanted over a connection to a third attack in london. police believe he abducted and raped a 21—year—old woman at knifepoint in watford in april. swift action is needed to prevent the loss of up to one million species — that's the warning from scientists ahead of a major assessment of the state of the natural world. the un report, which will be published in paris later today, says humans are to blame for the drastic declines. our global science correspondent rebecca morelle has more. from the oceans...

to the land... from insects... to exotic plants... all around the world, nature is in a dramatic decline. it is the focus of a major new un report, warning that the planet is facing an ecological crisis, and that it's humans who are to blame. areas once rich in nature are being cleared for development, illegal trade is bringing animals to the brink of extinction, and pollution is poisoning the seas. we are changing the planet in really unprecedented ways and there has been a tremendous decline in species and in the quality of our ecosystems this small patch of land in the south—west of england, hemmed in by busy roads, is a refuge for the narrow—headed ant. these animals were once widespread, but as their habitat has shrunk, now this is the only place in england they can be found. this ant is one of the last of its kind, but it is vital for this heathland environment. these insects keep the soil healthy, they break down organic material, and they are also food themselves

for small mammals. losing species entirely would have a huge impact. once you start to lose species, you do not know quite when the critical time comes. if we are prepared to lose the ant, then the nightjar and the cuckoos, and so on, you get to a point where it is no longer a functioning ecosystem, it is no longer a living heathland. the report says there is still hope for nature, but a global rescue plan must start now. if we fail to act, many species will be left fighting for survival. the electoral commission is calling on the government to change the law to make online political adverts clearly state who has paid for them. it first called for a change in the law sixteen years ago and has now renewed its demand. the call comes as facebook mounts an operation to try to ensure that it's not used to spread misinformation in the upcoming european elections. israeli and palestinian media are reporting that a cease—fire has

been reached to end the deadly outbreak of cross—border fighting between palestinian militants in the gaza strip and israeli forces. television stations of the militant hamas and islamichhad groups in gaza said there was an agreement to hold fire, and that the militants would halt rocket launches at israel, provided it stopped air strikes in gaza and abided by understandings to restore calm. the ceasefire deal was reportedly brokered by egypt, the united nations and qatar. thousands lined the streets of bangkok yesterday to watch the newly crowned king of thailand being carried through the capital in a four—mile royal procession. it was his first public appearance since being crowned in an elaborate ceremony on sunday. he is thailand's first new king in nearly seven decades. dramatic footage ta ken by a west midlands police helicopter, has shown the moment a car ended up in a river after it was pursued by officers. after a ten minute chase, the suspected stolen car plunged into a small river in birmingham, and the occupants fled on foot.

three teenagers were arrested on suspicion of theft of a motor vehicle. that police car manages to just do it. and did one of them jump out for the car hit the river and then run? yes. and they were arrested later. dramatic pictures. now, some devastating news if you have run a marathon. sorry, wrong story. i was going to talk about the bill first marathon. —— belfast marathon. a man, eliud kipchoge, is attempting to break the two—hour barrier. his current best

is just over two hours and he isjust over two hours and he has is just over two hours and he has a challenge ahead of him. our sports editor reports on a man trying to do something that no—one has done before. he is already the fastest marathon runner ever. now eliud kipchoge is focused on breaking the last great barrier in athletics. running 26 miles in under two hours is one of sports' mythical targets. but after his fourth london marathon win he told me he wanted to redefine what is possible. i said yes, i want to make history and to leave a mark in this world. it is about humanity. if you can believe it and if you work on it and trusting your team. until sir roger bannister proved otherwise right here in oxford exactly 65 years ago, breaking the four—minute mile barrier had seemed impossible. since then, various records have fallen in athletics. but the sub—2 hour marathon is still

seen as the ultimate challenge. two years ago, kipchoge missed out by 26 seconds at a specially staged event in monza in italy. it did not count as a world record due to the use of pacemakers. this time i am confident. one thing is that i am enjoying my experience from italy. the hope is for london to host the next attempt in autumn. the latest sports adventure. the latest sports adventure by sirjames radcliffe. the billionaire's move into cycling has been controversial with protests marring the launch of his cycle team. people will call itjust a bit of promotion. not really. we don't sell sports gear. it is unthinkable for any normal human being to run at that pace. it is quite extraordinary. but if anybody could do it, he can.

kipchoge's attempt will be open to tens of thousands of supporters. hoping that their support will help him push the limits of human performance. 12 minutes past seven. returning to our top story. an investigation begins today after 41 people were killed as a russian passenger plane tried to make an emergency landing at moscow's main airport. dramatic images show people using emergency exit slides at the front of the aircraft to escape. to talk us through what may have happened to the aeroflot flight, we're joined by aviation expert, sean maffett, on skype. good morning to you and thank you for taking the time to speak to us. we have seen the pictures this morning, dramatic images of the plane landing in flames and people able to get off. are there any indications about what may have gone wrong? there are indications,

nothing more than that, at this stage. 0bviously. it is suggested that shortly after takeoff it was struck by lightning. this may or may not have been the case. for whatever reason there was a serious medical problem that caused the crew to choose to come back to the airport and they then flew for another 25 minutes, including an extra circuit en route to land back. we also have seen footage of the landing. they seem to have hit the ground quite ha rd seem to have hit the ground quite hard for whatever reason. we don't know what was wrong with the air plane that could have caused that. then they bounced high and when they came down the second time it looks as if perhaps the main landing gear collapsed and the aircraft fell onto the runway with the engine scraping along the runway. something broke, perhaps in the fuel line, which caused the fire to start. and

thereafter we saw what happened.- you are describing that we are looking at the pit is of the plane coming into land. do you have an indication of how common it is, perhaps, for a plane to be hit lightning if that is what caused this crash. it is very common. aircraft are hit by lightning all the time. 0ften aircraft are hit by lightning all the time. often it does very little damage. in fact it is unusual for serious damage to be done. not impossible but quite unusual for major electrical problems to occur after a lightning strike. as we say, we don't know if this is definitely the case. most western aircraft are fairly well proofed against lightning strikes and this aircraft was their first real attempt to get into modern airliner design and it has been in service since 2011. this

particular aeroplane was quite new. i believe it was made in late 20 ten full i wanted to come to that, what we know about the aircraft in the airline involved. you have any background about the safety record and whether have been similar problems? as far as i know there have not been similar problems but the aircraft had a safety record. it was grounded in 2016 after the russian accident investigation agency determined that there had been metalfatigue in the agency determined that there had been metal fatigue in the tail plane area of the aircraft. there is no indication that that had anything to do with it. we shall no, we normally expect after crashes to get what is known as the black boxes. is on this occasion the black boxes may not have survived stop they are in the back of the aircraft and you saw the ferocity of the fire. they are fireproof and they can survive

enormous temperatures but i would say there is a good possibility that they may not have survived. what we do have is the crew. we saw at least one of them coming down a rope directly out of the cockpit window. we are told that both pilots have survived so they will be able to give a proper account of what went wrong. and, briefly, what is so dramatic about these pictures is seeing people evacuate down the slide. give us a sense of what would have happened on board when the plane came to a stop. the cabin crew, it seems that one of the cabin crew, it seems that one of the cabin crew died, but they will have been shouting at the passengers to move them along as quickly as possible, not to take anything with them although we did see pictures of people coming away with luggage, even with wheeled trolley luggage because that can impede people coming down the slide. you run directly to the door and throw yourself on the slide and come down and get away from the aircraft as

soon as possible. i am sure, this was a 27 minute flight altogether and presumably whatever went wrong did so fairly quickly. i imagine it would have been a terrifying experience for everybody on board. absolutely. good to talk to you and thank you for your insight. of course that accident claiming the lives of 41 people. carol is live at blenheim palace with this morning's weather. we with this morning's weather. have already seen hei much we have already seen her with pretty much a newborn lamb, and now she has the boss of the place. that looks like boss dog to me. isn't she beautiful? good morning, everyone. this is mist, and she is one of the working sheepdogs here. she has the most gorgeous blue highs, which hopefully you will see in just a

second, and she and another four sheepdogs look after over 4000 sheep. there is an important message at blenheim this morning, because they are very much involved with the charity called farmability, which invites people with disabilities and autism to learn a trade on the farm. iam autism to learn a trade on the farm. i am told it makes a difference, and they will get to see mist and some of her colleagues. as you can see, she is beautiful. you are a gorgeous girl. the weather is fairly quiet for many of us. the forecast for us all is a chilly one, a chilly start, temperatures at blenheim about five degrees at the moment. for most of us degrees at the moment. for most of us it will be dry. having said that, there will be some showers around as well. first thing this morning we have a weather front crossing scotland, ringing some showery rain as it does so. it will continue to

move south into northern ireland and northern england, and through the day into the midlands and east anglia, it could be quite heavy. showers in nottinghamshire and east anglia. for the north of scotland it isa anglia. for the north of scotland it is a windy start, especially across scotland, the north and shetland, and showers across the very far north. some of them could be wintry down to 300m. for the rest of scotland, brighter, with some sunshine stop rain across northern ireland and northern england will sink into the midlands and east anglia through the day, and south of that, we're looking at some brighter skies with some sunny spells, and just the isolated risk of a shower. cool along north sea coastlines. as we head to the evening and overnight, fairly cloudy with some showers, but the wind easing across shetland, and temperatures low enoughin shetland, and temperatures low enough in sheltered glens for some frost. we could reach or —4. as we go into tomorrow, fairly cloudy with some bright spells, but there could also be some showers. later in the

day the cloud will thicken up across south—west england, heralding the arrival of some rain. cool down the north sea coastlines, with an onshore easterly winds. as we headed to wednesday, you can see the low pressure coming in tuesday night into wednesday. that will bring in some heavy rain, and also gusty winds across the south—west. gusting 40-45 winds across the south—west. gusting 40—45 mph. if you are a farmer or a grower and you have been crying out for some rain, we are expecting that across england, wales and possibly into southern scotland. for the rest of scotla nd into southern scotland. for the rest of scotland and northern ireland, it isa of scotland and northern ireland, it is a brighter day for you with some sunny skies, but also some showers. then as we head on through the rest of the week, the forecast does remain unsettled, and cool for the

time of year as well. there will be some night—time frosts, and it will be cooled by day, with temperatures still below average. as we head into next weekend, it looks very much like we are going to have an action replay of what we had this weekend. so for now, that's it from mist and myself. we will have a lamb in half—an—hour to have another we play with. for now, back to you.|j half—an—hour to have another we play with. for now, back to you. i want you to practise your whistling, do a proper sheep dog whistle. is that too much to ask? i could do the proverbial wolf whistle. i have never seen a dog quite so content. we were just saying the weather every morning, carol should have a different animal, and on days when we are not outside, she should bring her cat in. it is the way forward. she would do it, i know she would. a million species are at risk of extinction, and we're to blame. that is the warning from scientists ahead of the release of a major un report on the state of the natural world. the damning assessment points to human activity like deforestation and overfishing for the drastic rate of decline. but are we past the point of no return? let's speak now to ecologist

emma sayer from the university of lancaster. good morning to you. it is nice to see you. we're looking at what might be talked about in this report, it is pretty clear that humans are to blame, and it is essentially about a land grab, more humans taking more habitat from natural world. we know we are to blame, don't we? but it is really stark in this report about quite how much damage we are doing. yes, i think it has been clear from the regional assessments that were published last year that it is pretty much the same in every region around the world. it tends to be sort of degradation of land or land use change and over exploitation of natural products that really is to

blame. so what can we do, in our everyday lives, two maybe help a little tiny bit? because i know it is probably small changes, but they can add up to a lot. yes, i think thatis can add up to a lot. yes, i think that is absolutely right. i think there are things each of us can do, and one of the big problems isjust overconsumption. it is not necessarily to many human beings, it is the fact that we consume so much, and we waste a lot. so just things like trying to minimise food waste and think about what we consume, and not buy products that you immediately throw away, i think there are also quite a lot of... there is a lot of guidance on, for example, in food, what has been produced sustainably, and there are various certification schemes where we can look at where our coffee comes from, where our bananas come

from, those kinds of things, and make those choices. is it true that we are so far removed from so many of the things that we consume that we don't actually have a good understanding of the impact that has on the natural world? understanding of the impact that has on the naturalworld? yes, understanding of the impact that has on the natural world? yes, that's absolutely right. i think there is sort of a lack of awareness, because we don't actually see the damage that we are causing. and i think blue planet was just a fantastic example of what can happen when you bring it home to people. so many people were shocked by the state of the oceans, and it immediately galvanised change across our society, and people are reducing their single use plastics all over their single use plastics all over the place. you know, it was a really positive story. so i do really hope that that is what this assessment will do, that it sort of kickstart a bit of action against biodiversity loss. does it all feel a bit overwhelming, though? as you said, plastic is clearly something that has been in the headlines this last year as a result of the blue planet programme, and deforestation related to palm oil production, but all of these things, they seem like drastic

changes we would have to make, if i am shopping at home i am thinking i can't buy plastic and i can't buy anything with palm oil, it starts being a big list of things you can't do, and that becomes difficult, doesn't it? no, i don't really think so. it is those small changes that the individual can make that then forces the companies to make the larger changes, orforces forces the companies to make the larger changes, or forces the governments to make the big changes. so it can be overwhelming, and it does seem to be an awful lot to think about, but just does seem to be an awful lot to think about, butjust change one thing or two things, it doesn't have to be everything. and what have you changed? i have changed quite a lot. well, i am vegetarian, to start with, so reducing meat consumption, and it doesn't have to be vegetarianism or veganism, but it can makea vegetarianism or veganism, but it can make a difference, i make sure that coffee or tea or anything from the tropics, i make sure it is certified, because i do research in

tropical forests, certified, because i do research in tropicalforests, i certified, because i do research in tropical forests, i want to try and preserve our tropical forests. and tropical forests, i want to try and preserve our tropicalforests. and i try to buy seasonal produce, and i look for sustainability labels on the products that i buy. it is good to know that actually little things like that can add up to a big difference. it is really nice to see you. thank you for explaining all of that. we will get that report later, and it is a pretty drastic report, that shows the impact that we as humans are having on the natural world. you are lucky that we are both here and awake. world. you are lucky that we are both here and awakelj world. you are lucky that we are both here and awake. i don't know about awake. it has been the tv hit of the year, with millions of us tuning into last night's final line of duty episode. we will talk to actor maya sondhi, aka pc maneet bindra, about why this series has been such a hit. we will give you lots of warnings in

case we do spoilers. we will have a big spoiler alert. stay tuned, it is worth it. time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are. good morning from bbc london news, i'm charlotte franks. a murder investigation has been launched after a 52—year—old man was killed by a car in leytonstone in east london. the met police say the collision appears to have been a deliberate act by the driver of the car, after an earlier altercation. another man was also hit and is in hospital with serious but non—life—threatening injuries. as muslims across the world begin the month—long fast of ramadan, one community in south london is trying to revive the art of sighting the new moon or hilal, which determines when the fast begins. members of a mosque in purley are taking part in the project by setting up sighting points across the uk. cloudy weather in this country often means the start of ramadan is determined by hilal

sightings abroad. we know that hilal is to the left of the setting of the sun, and the shape of the hilal will be exactly opposite to the location. so we know where exactly to see that hilal, so why we come here, but now our problem is it's totally cloudy. and this is one of the challenges we have yet in the uk. an author from london has written a special series of books to help children deal with mental health issues in the classroom. scott cranfield is now visiting schools across the capital to tell them the stories of the wise bear. they're aimed at 5 to 11—year—olds, to help them avoid emotional disorders later in life. let's take a look at the travel situation now. 0n the tube, there are a few issues this morning with a planned closure on the bakerloo line, and part—closures on the district and hammersmith and city lines and the 0verground.

0n the trains, euston station is closed, restricting services on london north western and virgin trains west coast. 0nto the roads: the m25 clockwise at j24 has a lane closed on the exit slip road, due to a broken—down lorry. and there is a collision at blackwall tunnel northern approach, but traffic is coping well. now the weather, with mel coles. good morning. we may not have the heat for this bank holiday monday, but there's a lot of dry weather in the forecast, and most of us should get to see some sunshine at some point. i think the best of any brightness will be through this morning. a lot of dry weather around, but we'll start to see that cloud increase as we head through the afternoon, bringing the chance of an isolated shower, but most places should remain dry. the winds are light, but underneath the cloud, it will feel cool, with temperatures below average for the time of year. highs of just 12 celsius. for most of us, then, it will be a fine end to the day. we will have a few clear spells overnight, but that cloud never too

far away, and once again the chance of an isolated shower. temperatures shouldn't fall as low as they have done recently. we're looking at lows of around four celsius. tuesday looks like being a very similar day. quite a bit of cloud around, but some bright spells at times. as we head into wednesday, though, it looks as though we're in for a spell of wet and windy weather. now, though, it's back to sally and ben. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast with ben thompson and sally nugent. here's a summary of this morning's main stories from bbc news. it's now known that 41 people were killed when a russian passenger plane caught fire during an emergency landing at sheremetyevo airport in moscow. dramatic images show passengers using emergency exit slides to escape the burning aircraft. the aeroflot flight had been heading for murmansk with 78 people on board shortly before the distress call was made. president putin has ordered

a full investigation. police hunting a fugitive over the abduction and rapes of three women in and around london, have arrested a man after the abduction of two other women in cheshire. following a car chase and police searches overnight, it's believed thatjoseph mccann was arrested in the early hours of this morning after he was found up a tree on a rural lane near congleton. swift action is needed to prevent the loss of up to 1 million species according to scientists. let's speak now to our environment correspondent, matt mcgrath. hejoins us from paris, where the report will be released later. good morning to you. another stark reminder of the impact that all of us reminder of the impact that all of us have on the natural world. absolutely. when we get the details of this report later on i think it will make for grim reading. we will

what happened over the last 50 years as global population increased rapidly and our footprint on the planet, the human footprint is having such a devastating impact on species, plants and animals all over the place. it will look at what is being done, it will look ahead and up being done, it will look ahead and up to being done, it will look ahead and upto1 being done, it will look ahead and up to 1 million species could be wiped out in the decades to come if things do not change. it will lay out some plans that they hope government will follow to ensure that does not happen. good to talk to you. thank you very much. that was matt with the details of that report. the report is due out later in paris and expected to be a dark morning about what we need to do to reduce our impact on the planet. and stark reality for manchester united fans this morning. emotions for all sorts of different fans across the weekend. we have a title race that is unbelievable. liverpool

and manchester city have been peerless. amazing to think that liverpool could get 97 points this season and still not win. a lot will be clearer this evening. 20 points back to the chasing pack, that race is more like wacky races. there is not that much of a gap between them! it has come an awful lot clearer, the race for the championship places and not good for manchester united. 0le gunnar solskjaer says the europa league is the right place for manchester united, he says he couldn't fault his players attitude and effort, but they just weren't good enough. they were held to a 1—1 draw at bottom club huddersfield. scott mctominay had given united the lead but isaac mbenza equalised for the releagtaed terriers. united cannot now finish in the top

four and will have to settle for europa league football next season, the second tier of european competition. we haven't deserved to be top four. we've chased the pack. we've been given chances. the league is so tight. it's so — it's a good league, it's loads of good teams, and when we got the opportunities, we weren't able to really grab them. and today was just a confirmation of a long season, 'cause in the end, the table doesn't lie. arsenal look to have blown their chance of champions league qualification through a top four finish, that's after they were also held 1—1 against brighton at home. glenn murray scored their equaliser from the spot. the gunners need an 8 goal swing on the final day to finish above spurs on goal difference in fourth which is unlikely, so they'll have try and qualify for the champions league by winning the europa league. we know it's going to be difficult,

and that has happened. and after that, our focus is the league, and we can do something important. chelsea didn't fluff their lines in the race for a top fourfinish, they've done it after beating watford 3—0. gonzalo higuain wrapped up the victory with a cute finish, following goals from ruben loftus cheek and david luiz. they are third and like arsenal they are also in the semi—finals of europa league but winning that is less important now for them it's leicester on the final day for chelsea, and that's who manchester city face tonight. the title is in their hands, win at the etihad and they will move one point clear of liverpool again with a trip to brighton on the final day. leicester still have a bit to play for, the chance of europa league football next season, so they're not going to roll over.

i cannot imagine that leicester would come here for a holiday. maybe they are looking for a chance to finish with a better result so in the end i think a lot will happen. they will try to make a good game. steven gerrard says he's running out of ideas when it comes to improving his rangers players discipline on the pitch, that's after their 12th red card of the season. they won their match against hibs1—0, jermain defoe with the goaljust before half time — rangers were already sure of a second placed finish. but they had their keeper allan mcgregor sent off for that kick with just minutes remaining. he'll miss next week's old firm match against celtic. gerrard says he might have start fining players who get red cards he does not want to. england beat pakistan in a one off t20 in cardiff,

but the match may be remembered for an extraordinary incident. bowler david willey fortunately avoided serious injury when the ground gave way under him and a huge hole appeared in the turf. apparently it was the result of a pitch box popping up, and ground staff had to swiftly repair the damage. as for the match, eoin morgan's unbeaten 57 led england to a seven wicket win. england face pakistan in a one day series next, in the lead up to a home world cup later this month. judd trump is in complete control of the world snooker championship final in sheffield. they resume this afternoon and he is 12—5 up against four time champion john higgins. he was five 4 down but rattled off 8 frames in a row. it's the first to 18. play gets back under way at the crucible at 2 o'clock

and its live on bbc two. and that is what i will be doing this afternoon. less than 24 hours after losing the morocco 0pen final, jo konta hot—footed over to spain for the madrid 0pen. the british number one beat alison riske... konta finished off the american with an ace, to seal a 6—4, 6—1win. she will face reigning french open champion simona halep in the second round tomorrow. after four days of racing, the tour de yorkshire finished on the streets of leeds. and there was a british winner greg van avermaet may have won the final stage from halifax to the city centre but chris lawless, held onto the lead, to give the new team ineos outfit a victory in their first outing. yorkshire is also hosting another world championship later this year with more big crowds expected. britain's piggy french says it

a complete fairytale to win the badminton horse trials, her first major title. riding her mare vanir kamira, french beat overnight leader 0liver townend, the 2009 winner, by a single time fault in a dramatic final show—jumping phase. it was a good week for british riders with 6 finishing in the top ten. you get so used to congratulating people and telling yourself to be happy but when you go home and you keep going. she is such an amazing little mare. she would annihilate this track at home every time. she is only the second winner at badminton after town and one in ten yea rs badminton after town and one in ten years ago. she was quite happy. £100,000 as well. a nice achievement winning badminton. and i am still distracted by that cute toddler. it's been announced this morning that the runner

eliud kipchoge will attempt to make history and break the two—hour marathon barrier. the world—record holder's current best is two hours, one minute and 39 seconds — but he has an even faster unofficial time. former 0lympic marathon runner steve brace joins us live now from our cardiff newsroom. good morning to you and thank you for joining good morning to you and thank you forjoining us. he thinks he can do it, do you think it is possible?m will be very close. it will come down to a small margin thing such as the weather, his face and how he is feeling in his training goes between now and then. he clearly thinks it is possible. 0ne are the things that will make the difference now to shave off those few seconds? just 4.5 seconds and he needs to fight each and every mile. these are fine margins. his training has gone very well and he is in clearly fantastic

form and he is at the peak of his career stop his endurance levels are about his best in his mid— 30s so i imagine he feels that this is one of his last chances now for the future of what has been an illustrious career. no doubt the best marathon runner athletics has ever seen. experts will know that the london route is not the easiest. will that make a difference? why did he choose london? it is an interesting announcement. i don't believe it will be on the london marathon course. i understand it could be on a loop circuit somewhere. that is an unknown. interestingly they try to cover themselves by having a few weekends they could do it overjust to make sure that conditions are perfect. 0bviously to make sure that conditions are perfect. obviously it will be a notable time and in the same round is the sub four—minute mile. so it

will be an interesting time for all those who follow athletics and particularly marathons. it is interesting you mentioned the loop because he ran in italy, didn't he andi because he ran in italy, didn't he and i think he did that in two hours and i think he did that in two hours and 25 seconds in 2017. maybe that is what will happen and will have a significant bearing on his time. that was a manufactured performance with pacemakers coming in and it was not what we call a legal performance for various reasons. but here he will try to do the legal record and it will be a struggle for him to find enough athletes and pacemakers to manage to cater for his pace for the length of time that he will need to do it. he is a notable runner. his strength and character and willpower in the miles as we have seenin willpower in the miles as we have seen in so many marathons, he is strong and has honed over the years.

his training is phenomenal. and long runs, close to race pace, long intervals and numerous intervals. averages of 110, 130 miles a week. so it will come down to a fine margin and have everything going on the day. a dinky book quite do it, i think we will need to wait for the next era of runners. he will be close but not quite there. ooh, interesting. lovely to speak to you. you think you won't quite do it. quite a challenge, however, isn't it. if you were still in bed this morning, that is ok because it is a bank holiday. it is grey and chilly outside but here is an image to cheer you up. and carol is live at and blenheim palace with this morning's weather. you are spoiling us with cute pictures this morning. good morning

to you both. look at this beautiful little lamb. less than 12 hours old. his mother is in the background and thatis his mother is in the background and that is why he is leading. i will passing back in a minute so he does not get stressed. he is gorgeous, one of over 2000 lambs and sheep here at blenheim palace and you could look at him all morning. he is so sweet. the sun is now beating down and it is a cold wind for some of us this morning and it is a chilly start to the day. the forecast for today is mostly dry with temperatures low where they should be at this stage in may and there are showers in the forecast as well and later on the could be heavy across nottinghamshire and east anglia in particular. but not all of us anglia in particular. but not all of us will catch one. this morning we also have a weather front sinking

south over scotland bringing showery outbreaks of rain. as it does so it moves into northern ireland and then sinks into the midlands. we have some showers to the north of the great glen and some of those will be wintry to about 300 metres, windy and shetland. for the rest of scotla nd and shetland. for the rest of scotland we lose showery rain and it will brighten up. northern ireland and northern england have a cloudy day and once again showery outbreaks of rain pushing into the midlands and east anglia. south of that in southern england and most of wales we look at rates bills and sunshine in the cloud tilting from the south—west through the course of the day. it will be a cold day particularly along the north sea coastline leading us into a cool night for some. the wind easing across shetland, still some showers but when we get clear sky in sheltered lens temperatures will dip. tomorrow will again be fairly cloudy with some bright spells. also

some showers and then later in the day we will see fit cloud and rain arriving into south—west england. cool along the north sea coastline, inland not as cold and still below parfor inland not as cold and still below par for may. as we inland not as cold and still below parfor may. as we had inland not as cold and still below par for may. as we had from tuesday into wednesday, an area of low pressure comes our way introducing rain and gusty wind at 40, 45 mph by the end of the night into wednesday stop moving across southern countries as will the rain across england and wales, possibly into southern scotland as well. for the rest of scotland and northern ireland, we look at a bright day with some showers temperature wise, no great shakes and the best temperature tomorrow, on wednesday, will be 15 degrees. after that the forecast remains unsettled with temperatures still low for this time of year and it should be back up next weekend but at the moment it looks like a repeat performance of what we had this weekend. i am off

to ta ke what we had this weekend. i am off to take this wee man back to this mother and give him a quick cuddle before i do so. back to you. how gorgeous is he? having a little sleep while you are doing the weather as well. i find most people do that during my weather. carol is the bit everybody wakes up for. come on. this is your subject, as well. backin on. this is your subject, as well. back in the zone. what do you do if you are an international multimillon—pound technology company that can't get the staff it needs? the boss of one software company has decided on a bit of diy, starting an academy in his home—town of sheffield to train the tech moguls of tomorrow.

danni hewson reports. if you don't know what you are going to do, you have to simply ride the wave and know where you have to go. it is definitely a difficult decision but with technology there are many options. like thousands of 16 and 17—year—olds, these four students try to figure out what to do with their life. it is our future, basically. how technology will be produced and made and our imagination can be used for those ideas. i struggled at times, wondering what i wanted to do but most of the time i think i want to do stuff with computers. there are 600,000 vacancies and there is big demand. the cost of the economy of all those unfilled jobs is around £63 billion a year. you are dealing with a csv file which is tiny data. this is dave richards, tech royalty. he started a massive company in silicon valley 14 years ago.

but he wanted a base here in sheffield, his hometown. finding staff has been an issue. education and ambition are huge hurdles. technology can democratise, can level the playing field as it did for me, or it can create huge gaps where people get left behind. i want to make sure we have an even playing field where people from all areas of society have the same chances as those from the upper echelon. his solution, offer 20 students a place at his specialist academy here at sheffield college and a guaranteed interview at his company. but why can't the uk deliver what he needs? we have an opportunity here to get some mentoring. to get people enthusiastic about working in this industry. and many students at this college

could take this route but they don't know enough. to have a project like this offers something different. it is notjust classroom—based, this is experiential learning that could make a difference to young people who may not have thought of this. the department of education says they are creating opportunities for collaborations between college, university and business to address skill gaps. but for smaller tech firms it is taking too long. it is harder. there are more and more people at larger companies and there are not enough people to go around. previously, five, ten, years ago you could get people quickly. now it can take up to eight months. as these students get ready to head into the world of work, their dreams of a job in tech do not seem so far—fetched.

business will have to look to more schemes like this if they want to fill their own skills gap. now, how's your posture? straight backs, good posture. that is because we are talking about pilates. millions of people worldwide are already benefitting from it, but not many know it started on the isle of man. i have tried it, you have tried a bit of pilates, haven't you?” i have tried it, you have tried a bit of pilates, haven't you? i have, but i am not very good at it. we can now go live there now and join our reporter rick faragher, who is at the very site that inspired it. good morning to you. yes, good morning, guys. iam in the good morning to you. yes, good morning, guys. i am in the farmland outside the town of peel on the west coast of the isle of man. it is still and tranquil start to the day, but if we were to turn the clock

back 100 years, how different the scene would be here. this was the side the largest first world war internment camp, it was home to 23,000 foreign nationals who had been living in the uk during the outbreak of the great war. they are from places like germany, austria, hungary, and one of them was a young german by the name ofjoseph pilates. he was obsessed with exercise and how the body moved, and this is his incredible story. the great war had started. patriotism swept the streets of britain. among the proudest were people who weren't born here. but there was a problem — the government was suspicious. in 1914, the aliens restrictions act was passed. huge numbers of european nationals were sent to internment camps. these fields in the isle of man form part of the largest. over five years, more than 30,000 men were in interned at knockaloe beg farm, in patrick village.

there were some that had been living in britain for a very long time, and some actually had sons who were old enough to fight for britain. but then you had other men who were interned here who had sons fighting for germany, they were very much pro—german. among the internees was a young german called joseph pilates. he was fascinated with exercise, and how the human body moved. conditions in the camp were cramped. this hut is one of the very few that still exist. it is now a shop. joseph would have lived here with about 30 other men. there wasn't always much room to exercise, but there was inspiration. we hear stories that he based a lot of the original method on the movements of animals. we do believe that there were metal beds and there were springs in the camp, and that he started working with this equipment, designing this equipment and exercises, right here in this field, which is really amazing to be standing in. it is believe there are more than 1 million descendants of the men who were held at knockaloe.

my great, great grandfather, he moved from germany to england with his wife in the 1880s. they eventually settled in merseyside. they had had five children, and he was sent there. now it's the 100 years anniversary from it, i think it's a very fitting time to remember these men and their stories, and how it did affect their lives and their families. 100 years ago, the camp closed. poignant reminders of its legacy remain. in 1919, joseph left here for good. a century on, the ideas first formed in these manx fields are used by pilates enthusiasts in all four corners of the world. so not just so notjust the remarkable story of

joseph pilates, but also the site itself, and on the site there is a pilates class happening right now. let's have a quick look inside, the quys let's have a quick look inside, the guys are looking very strong and lean, and we have sisters briony and amy. briony, you have been doing pilates for how long now? we probably took a first class over a year ago. i find probably took a first class over a yearago. ifind it probably took a first class over a year ago. i find it really beneficial for my flexibility, and core, andl beneficial for my flexibility, and core, and i recommend it to anyone of all ages and abilities, it is great. you guys are obviously sisters, and you have a very special connection to this place, what is it? our great great grandfather was a medical officer here, and he was the medical officer of camp four, and he more than likely came across joseph pilates when they were here, so joseph pilates when they were here, so it isa joseph pilates when they were here, so it is a nice connection to have,

of sighting the new moon, or hilal, which determines when the fast begins. members of a mosque in purley are taking part in the project by setting up sighting points across the uk. cloudy weather in this country often means the start of ramadan is determined by hilal sightings abroad. we know that hilal is to the left of the setting of the sun, and the shape of the hilal will be exactly opposite to the location. so we know where exactly to see that hilal, so why we come here, but now our problem is it's totally cloudy. and this is one of the challenges we have yet in the uk. an author from london has written a special series of books to help children deal with mental health issues in the classroom. scott cranfield is now visiting schools across the capital to tell them the stories of the wise bear. they are aimed at 5 to 11—year—olds, to help them avoid emotional disorders later in life. let's take a look at

should remain dry. the winds are light, but underneath the cloud, it will feel cool, with temperatures below average for the time of year. highs of just 12 celsius. for most of us, then, it will be a fine end to the day. we will have a few clear spells overnight, but that cloud never too far away, and once again the chance of an isolated shower. temperatures shouldn't fall as low as they have done recently. we're looking at lows of around four celsius. tuesday looks like being a very similar day. quite a bit of cloud around, but some bright spells at times. as we head into wednesday, though, it looks as though we're in for a spell of wet and windy weather. that's it. now back to sally and ben. bye for now. good morning welcome to breakfast with sally nugent and ben thompson. 0ur headlines today: more than 40 people are now dead

78 passengers and crew. there was a desperate rush to escape from the inferno. at the front of the plane, the inflatable slide saved some. people leapt onto the chute and ran to safety. but not everyone got out of this alive. it's feared that more than 40 people may have been killed. dimitri survived the crash. asked whether he thought the plane had been hit by lightning, he replied, "yes, maybe.

manual control after it had been struck by lightning. he said he lost communication with air traffic control, even the emergency communication system went down. he said he was approaching normal speed to the runway and it is unclear why that landing was so disastrous, widely plain in fact smacked into the tarmac, essentially, as we saw from the pictures, bounced a couple of times. 0ne from the pictures, bounced a couple of times. one of the passengers on board said it bounced like a grasshopper before bursting into fla mes grasshopper before bursting into flames with tragic consequences. we now know 41 people have lost their lives and huge questions about why and how exactly based disaster has happened. absolutely, sarah, for now, thank you. police hunting a fugitive over the abduction and rapes of three women in and around london, have arrested a man after the abduction of two other women in cheshire. following a car chase and police searches overnight,

over the head with a bottle. some builders on a local site stepped in to rescue them. earlier, mccann had allegedly tried to take the two women to a hotel in watford. the metropolitan police issued these cctv images. mccann was also wanted in connection with a third attack in the london area. police believe he abducted and raped a 21—year—old woman at knife—point on april 21st in watford. andy moore, bbc news. swift action is needed to prevent the loss of up to one million species — that's the warning from scientists ahead of a major assessment of the state of the natural world. the un report, which will be published in paris later today, says humans are to blame for the drastic declines. current research shows species are already disappearing at their fastest ever rate. the electoral commission is calling on the government to change the law to make online political adverts clearly state who has paid for them. it first called for a change in the law 16 years ago and has

now renewed its demand. the call comes as facebook mounts an operation, to try to ensure that it's not used to spread misinformation in the upcoming european elections. israeli and palestinian media are reporting that a cease—fire has been reached to end the deadly outbreak of cross—border fighting between palestinian militants in the gaza strip and israeli forces. television stations in gaza said there was an agreement to hold fire, and that the militants would stop rocket launches at israel, provided it stopped air strikes in gaza. 25 palestinians and four israelis were reported killed in the two days of fighting. thousands lined the streets of bangkok yesterday to watch the newly crowned king of thailand being carried through the capital in a four—mile royal procession. it was his first public appearance since being crowned in an elaborate ceremony on sunday. he is thailand's first new king in nearly seven decades. dramatic footage ta ken by a west midlands police

you can turn the sound down a little bit if you want to. everybody ready? we are going to talk about it now. we are going to talk about it now. we might have some spoilers. the question on everyone's lips? just who is 'h'? we'll go through last night's thrills and spills in a moment with actor maya sondhi, who played pc maneet bindra in the series, but first, look away now if you don't want to see what happened last night. i can't see how the cash of £50,000 can be used in evidence against superintendent hastings. well, that is for a court to decide. well, given what i've heard, thejudge will almost certainly exclude it, and it's the only evidence that you've linking superintendent hastings to organised crime. i think we should call a temporary halt to give my team time to examine further evidence.

mr hastings, you'll be returned to custody and charged or released within 24 hours of your original arrest — approximately six hours. interview terminated. they were not very nice, were they? maya sondhi joins us now from our london newsroom. good morning to you. it is so lovely to see you. there is really only one place to start, did you guess who h was going to be? no, i got myself all worked up thinking, now, i reckon h is a woman. hang on, i think h is a place. maybe it's a code, maybe it's a group, maybe it's a country. maybe i am h, i don't know! laughter that would be quite good going. we are not giving anything away here, you left are about through way this

last series, didn't you? earlier than that. lets talk about the way they show manages to kill off the main characters with relative ease. that is one of its trademarks, right? no one is safe, ever. nothing is ever definite. you never know with jed when is ever definite. you never know withjed when he is going to pull the rug out from under you. i loved being part of one of those trademark line of duty moments. didn't you actually choose to be written out at that point? did you have a conversation about it? we did have a chat about it. i was chuffed to be coming back and i spoke tojed and said we need to resolve maneet‘s storyline. people won't be happy with what's happened and it's not ok for her to still be working there but still being dodgy. i said, why don't we do something a bit dramatic? i think i may after a couple of glasses of wine and suggested i die. never, evertalk

couple of glasses of wine and suggested i die. never, ever talk to jed mercurio when you have had a couple of glasses! you might regret it. it was brilliant. he rang me and said, if you're 0k it. it was brilliant. he rang me and said, if you're ok with it, this is what i'd like to do, give you amazing scenes and an amazing death and of course i said yes, because, what a way to go! i don't think anyone expected that of that character. let's speak about jed. clearly behind two of the biggest shows of this year, bodyguard and line of duty. line of duty came first! some of the big billboard advert said from the makers of bodyguard comes line of duty but it should have been the other way round because you are right it was the other way around. let's talk about some of those scripts. it is so hard to predict from episode one where the heck it is going to go. even when you know the script, actually how it's put together in the edit is really clever as well. the editing is phenomenal, as well as the

writing, obviously. just a look or a shot... i think line of duty is so full of people walking out of rooms and giving a look and you are like, what does that look mean? that was in the script! i think is brilliant for that. all the things that are unsaid as well. i think one of the things that threw me was the moment after hastings was arrested, when he did that look, when he was locked up and he looked really cross and a bit mean. i thought, and he looked really cross and a bit mean. ithought, is and he looked really cross and a bit mean. i thought, is thisjed telling us mean. i thought, is thisjed telling us maybe there is a bad side to him. you could read into everything! now i read other peoples scripts that are notjed mercurio's script and wonder if there is something extranet. someone says yes or no and i think what does that really mean... i had spent too long with jed! how important is the character of hastings? how important is it we trust him and believe him? he is almost like a father figure of the

whole series? he is, daddy hastings. i really felt for him, in that scene when he discovered, oh gosh, i'm going to do a massive spoiler. we did a massive spoiler alert. when he discoversjohn did a massive spoiler alert. when he discovers john corbett and did a massive spoiler alert. when he discoversjohn corbett and hughey wells, whose son he was. i was on the verge of tears because adrian's performance was excellent and you feel everything he feels the stop then i was angry because i thought, don't cry over him, he organised maneet‘s death! don't cry over him, he organised maneet's death! i had forgotten that last night, you just reminded me. this is so complicated. at home, i sometimes have struggled to keep up with it. also there is a thing, on paper, reading a script like this with ucos and ac 12, you might think people could get a bit lost but people have been willing to invest in all of that and it shows the strength of the show? i think so, people love

all that stuff, procedural stuff, all that stuff, procedural stuff, all the acronyms and stuff. you go with it, because it feels real, it feels believable. i don't think i've ever seen a show when so many people stand and talking offices and it's compelling. we've done quite a few spoiler alerts this morning. i think we've given people plenty of warning. have we at any point revealed who h is? no. i'm so nervous about doing it because we know so many people will watch on catch up. that is the beauty of it, isn't it? it's very little detail. we talked about the looks. then the big unveiling that we got last night was all about that little finger action, wasn't it? oh, yeah, little finger action. morse code! the whole show rests on the little finger action. can ijust say show rests on the little finger action. can i just say for a moment, i know we have to suspend everything, but he was concentrating on quite a lot at that moment.

blinking with his eyes, tapping out morse code with his fingers, that's a lot of thinking! he was the caddie. i loved all the rumours about the caddy not being dead and coming back to life. i followed those of social media. i thought they were really funny. i think people knew that craig had visited the set and i think maybe had put two and two together and come up with 65! laughter so it was great. those theories are great. how involved people have got in the theories is incredible. i did find all the stuff about h from steps really funny! who knows, for people who haven't watched it, it might still happen. lovely to talk to you. we wish you well and hope to see you on our screens again very soon. thank you very much. what's incredible is some people predict it from the outset. some people nailed

it from the first episode. of this series? there was a moment last week, after the episode last week, last monday morning when i was on the sofa and dan walker was there and he showed me a picture... iwas here. remember! showed me a picture of the person he thought was h and he was right. i hadn't seen the one the night before so i didn't see the picture. he got it. we still haven't said. not too many spoilers. available on bbc iplayer if you want to go and watch the final episode. let's watch the weather now. carol is live at blenheim palace. it is getting better all the time. look at this little baby. good morning everyone. this little lamb is just over morning everyone. this little lamb isjust over six morning everyone. this little lamb is just over six hours old. morning everyone. this little lamb isjust over six hours old. she is absolutely perfect in every way,

having a little drink here this morning at blenheim it is a chilly start. she is one of a flock of over 2000 sheep and lambs. we have seen a few of them this morning of varying ages. i'm getting covered in milk because she is making a right mess! it might be the way i am feeding her. later on, we will be looking at some jousting at 8:45am. lots going on here this morning and today at blenheim palace. it is a chilly start to the day. what a day to be born! it is sunny here but there is a cold wind as well. as we go through the day, for many of us, temperatures will be below par for the stage in may but it will be dry for many. but we have a weather front sinking south and that is producing some showery outbreaks of rain. currently across parts of southern scotland and through the course of the day, that weather front will sink south into northern england and also northern ireland,

bringing some showery rain as it does so. by the time it gets into the midlands and east anglia, some showers could be heavy. but because they are showers and, not all of us will see them. south of that in southern england that most of wales, looking at a drier day on a brighter day. for scotland, winding across shetland this morning. we also have the showers north of the great glen, down to about 300 metres or so they will be wintry. as the rain pushes away from the south of scotland, it will brighten up later on. what we also have is the rain getting into northern england and northern ireland and eventually into east anglia and also the midlands. the southern areas, some brightness, and also some sunshine around but later we will see a bit more cloud coming m, we will see a bit more cloud coming in, turning the sunshine hazy first up in, turning the sunshine hazy first up tonight, the wind eating across shetland. still a lot of cloud and a few showers. a chilly night, vertically where the cloud breaks, in the highlands for example, falling to —3 or —4, leading us into tuesday, which will be fairly cloudy

with some bright spells and also some showers. later in the day, we start to see the cloud build in the southwest and later again, some rain. it will feel cold down the north sea coastline, especially as we head on from tuesday into wednesday. what is happening is an area of low pressure is coming our way and will introduce some rain across england and wales, possibly as far north as southern scotland and gusty winds initially in the south—west but crossing southern counties through the day, 40—45 miles an hour. if you are in scotla nd miles an hour. if you are in scotland or northern ireland away from the south, we are looking at a brighter day, with a few showers around but still temperatures no great shakes. meanwhile, in all the rain, temperatures climbing to 15 degrees possibly. still not brilliant at this stage in may. as we head on through the rest of the week, it remains unsettled. there will be week, it remains unsettled. there will be bright week, it remains unsettled. there will be bright spells week, it remains unsettled. there will be bright spells and week, it remains unsettled. there will be bright spells and sunshine that also some showers around. next weekend, at the moment, looking very similarto weekend, at the moment, looking very similar to what we have just had this weekend. look at this perfect

little lamb. you wouldn't believe she isjust over six hours old. how gorgeous is she?! so well—behaved. carol, you won't know this but that lamb is actually smiling whilst you cuddle her. so cute! so content in carol's arms. thank you. she is adorable! shall we stop everything and leave that on? i think we could for the next 38 minutes! more from carol a little later. it is 8:22am. you are watching breakfast. it's been described as an extinction crisis. 1 million species at the risk of being lost forever a nd million species at the risk of being lost forever and we are to blame. that is a warning from scientist ahead of the release of a major un report on the state of the natural world. we can speak to a wildlife

conservationist who joins us from nairobi national park. if we start in nairobi this morning, paul, lovely to see you. can you explain to us exactly where you are and what we might be able to spot through that window? laughter you have caught me on a game ride, in the middle of a national park. about three kilometres from the central business district of nairobi. nairobi national park is the only national park within the city boundary. you can see zebra, buffalo, giraffes, rhinos black—and—white, lions, leopards and a multitude of other smaller antelopes, hippopotamus, you name it. how concerned should we be for the animals you are describing in the animals you are describing in the light of this report that will be released later today? we should be petrified, in my view. what we're seeing around the is

uncontrolled development. africa is a continent that is the least developed of all the continents but what we are seeing is astronomical rates of development largely funded by china and the usa, some european countries as well. we are seeing destruction of habitats. this national park now has a railway right across it, which is one of the developments that conservationists tried to stop. what we're seeing in places like tanzania, the development of the largest hydroelectric dam right inside inside a national park, one of the old est inside a national park, one of the oldest and largest national parks in africa, also a heritage site. we are seeing african governments making decisions based on very poor science or no science and no involvement of conservationists like myself and the hundreds of experts on this continent. as a result, we are seeing far more environmental tragedies, floods, we are seeing

droughts. in northern kenya now there are people dying of starvation because of the massive drought. this has to do with overgrazing and that is also related to other developments, light roads and railways, that are preventing animals from moving into places where they should be moving. it's disrupting ecological cycles across the entire continent. we can join in —— might bring in doctor msa. those are real life examples being repeated around the world and bit by bit they have a devastating impact. that is true, there is habitat fragmentation. this development... yes. being done in a fairly thoughtless way is contributing massively to the destruction of wildlife is stop i know the report is out later today, published in paris but it feeds from similar themes and other reports. give me a sense of what we should be most concerned about.

it tends to be ecosystem degradation and land use change. ecosystem degradation includes putting roads and railways through the middle of important habitats. it breaks things up. wildlife crossing the road, they get killed, they get run over and it can break up habitats for smaller species and we can end up with a very isolated fragments of habitats and the animals are almost like trapped on very small islands that can't sustain them. i think that is one of the really big issues we are facing. it is one that clearly will play out later. emma, thank you for now. and also from nairobi, it was very interesting to hear the thoughts from paula in the nairobi national park. 8:26am. let's get the news, travel and weather where you are waking up this morning.

man was killed by a car in leytonstone in east london. the met police say the collision appears to have been "a deliberate act by the driver of the car" after an earlier altercation. another man was also hit and is in hospital with serious but non life—threatening injuries. as muslims across the world begin the month—long fast of ramadan, one community in south london is trying to revive the art of sighting the new moon or hilal, which determines when the fast begins. members of a mosque in purley are taking part in the project by setting up sighting points across the uk. cloudy weather in this country often means the start of ramadan is determined by hilal sightings abroad. we know that hilal is to the left of

the setting of the sun. exactly opposite to the location, so we know exactly where to see the hilal. now our problem is it is totally cloudy and this is one of the challenges we have here in the uk. an author from london has written a special series of books to help children deal with mental health issues in the classroom. scott cranfield is now visiting schools across the capital to tell them the stories of the wise bear. they're aimed at five to 11—year—olds to help them avoid emotional disorders later in life. let's take a look at the travel situation now... on the tube there are a few issues this morning with a planned closure on the bakerloo line and part closures on the district and hammersmith and city lines and the overground. on the trains, euston station is closed, restricting services on london north western and virgin trains west coast.

and there's a lane blocked due to a broken down car on the north circular heading eastbound at brownlow road in bounds green. now the weather with mel coles. good morning. we may not have the heat this bank holiday monday but there is a lot of dry weather in the forecast and most of us should get to see some sunshine at some point. i think the best of any brightness will be through this morning. a lot of dry weather around but we will start to see the cloud increase as we head through the afternoon bringing the chance of an isolated shower but most places should remain dry. the winds are light but underneath the cloud it will feel cool with temperatures below average for the time of year. highs of 12 celsius. for most it will be a fine end to the day. there will be clear spells overnight but the cloud never too far away and once again the chance of an isolated shower. temperatures shouldn't fall as low

as they have done recently. tuesday looks like being a very similar day, quite a bit of cloud around but some bright spells at times. as we head into wednesday it looks like we are infora into wednesday it looks like we are in for a spell of wet and windy weather. i am back with the latest from the bbc london newsroom just this is breakfast. let's bring you up—to—date with our latest headlines. 41 people were killed when a russian passenger plane caught fire during an emergency landing ata caught fire during an emergency landing at a moscow airport. dramatic images show passengers using emergency exit slides to escape the burning aircraft. it had 78 people on board. shortly before the distress call was made. president putin has ordered a full investigation. police hunting a

fugitive in and around london have arrested a man after the abduction of two other women in cheshire. following police searches, it is believed josef mccann was arrested in the early hours of this morning. swift action is needed to prevent the loss of up to 1 million species, thatis the loss of up to 1 million species, that is the one in from scientists ahead of a major assessment of the state of the natural world. let's speak to matt mcgrath who joins us from paris where the report will be later released later. good morning. any indication about how bad this report might be? i think it will be quite a stark indication of what the state of the planet's biodiversity is right now. it will look back over the next 30 or 40 years —— last 40 yea rs the next 30 or 40 years —— last 40 years as the population has grown as

our demand forfood years as the population has grown as our demand for food and medicine years as the population has grown as our demand forfood and medicine has grown and we have turned to clearing forests to grow beef and cattle and palm oil in deforested area in southeast asia and it will look at the global picture painting a picture of what has happened around the world. it will draw some significant conclusions for the survival of perhaps up to 1 million species in the coming decades. thanks. thousands of people lined the streets of bangkok to watch the newly crowned king of thailand being carried through the capital in a four mile royal procession. it was his first public appearance since being crowned in an elaborate ceremony. he is thailand's first new king in nearly seven decades. the organisers of belfast city marathon have apologised after admitting the course was almost a third of a mile longer than it should have been.

more than 5000 athletes took part in yesterday's race and suspicions about the distance were raised pretty soon afterwards. it's been blamed on human error saying the lead car diverted from the route. better to be too long than too short. manchester, very good marathon in the city. 380 metres too short. every single time was invalid. but they are working out their pace and giving them a new time. they are working out where the finish line would have been. maybe it's a good thing! it was a massive stink when all those runners took pa rt stink when all those runners took part in manchester, all of their times were invalid. a couple of guys in the building he ran that manchester marathon. these guys

didn't do the distance, manchester united. did paul pogba run at all? or was hejust united. did paul pogba run at all? or was he just strolling?” united. did paul pogba run at all? or was he just strolling? i was listening to alan green, radio 5live as alan green can only be. he wasn't saying complimentary things, he said they were playing with ten men. he said pogba is on the pitch but not doing very much. a shocking result for manchester united. ole gunnar solskjaer says the europa league is the right place for them, because thatis the right place for them, because that is where they will play next season missing out on champions league qualification. he said he couldn't fault his players' attitude and many people disagreed, they said they weren't good enough and were held to a 1—1 draw against bottom clu b held to a 1—1 draw against bottom club huddersfield relegated a couple of months ago. scott mctominay had given united the lead but they got an equaliserfor the given united the lead but they got an equaliser for the relegated terriers. united cannot finish in the top four. they will have to settle for europa league football next season, the second tier of

european competition. we haven't deserved to be top four. we've chased the pack. we've been given chances. the league is so tight. it's so — it's a good league, it's loads of good teams, and when we got the opportunities, we weren't able to really grab them. and today was just a confirmation of a long season, because in the end, the table doesn't lie. bad day at the office for arsenal, they look to have blown their chance of champions league qualification through a top four finish after they we re through a top four finish after they were also held 1—1 against brighton at home. glenn murray scored the seagulls are positive equaliser from the spot and the gunners need an eight goal swing on the final day to finish above spurs, very unlikely. but there is a plan b, a bit of hope, they will have to try and qualify for the champions league by winning the europa league. they are in the semifinals. chelsea didn't fluff their lines in a race for a top fourfinish

fluff their lines in a race for a top four finish beating watford 3—0. gonzalo higuain wrapping up a victory with the tidy finish and ruben loftus—cheek and david luiz scored. like arsenal, they are in the semifinals of the europa league but they don't need to win to get into the champions league. tonight, manchester city can move back to the top of the table with a win at home top of the table with a win at home to leicester. steven gerrard says he is running out of ideas in scotland when it comes to improving his rangers' players discipline on the pitch after they've picked up their 12th red card of the season. they won 1—0 against 12th red card of the season. they won1—0 against hibs, 12th red card of the season. they won 1—0 against hibs, jermain defoe with the goal before half—time. they will finish as runners—up to celtic but the keeper allan mcgregor was sent off for a petulant kick with a couple of minutes left on the clock. he will miss the old firm match against celtic next weekend. gerrard says he is running out of ideas and he says he has to start finding his players, which he doesn't want to do, he says possibly. england beat

pakistan. the match will be remembered for this, and bowler david willey avoiding serious injury. watch his right foot as he pla nts injury. watch his right foot as he plants it. bowler david willey fortunately avoided serious injury when the ground gave way under him and a huge hole appeared in the turf. apparently it was the result of a pitch box popping up, and ground staff had to swiftly repair the damage. as for the match, eoin morgan's unbeaten 57 led england to a seven wicket win. england face pakistan in a one day series next, in the lead up to a home world cup later this month. judd trump is in complete control of the world snooker championship final in sheffield. they resume this afternoon and he is 12—5 up against four time champion john higgins. he was 5—4 down but rattled off eight frames in a row. some lovely shots with big century breaks. first to 18. play gets back under way at the crucible at 2pm

and its live on bbc two. might not go to an evening session if trump goes the way he is. i will watch. the challenge is to stay away after an early start. i won't be able to! thanks. it's a condition that affects as many as one in 12 boys, but there are fears that many colour blind children are still not being properly diagnosed, leading to calls for more screening. but it's not all bad news for those with the condition, as technology is helping withjob prospects — breakfast‘s tim muffet has been to meet the world's first colour blind tube driver. please stand clear and mind the doors. stand clear and mind the doors. i have a colour vision deficiency, more commonly known as colour blindness. it's hard for me to distinguish between red and green. so you might wonder how alex is allowed to drive a london underground train. until recently, he wouldn't have been, because he could have mixed up red and green signals.

it can, you know, halt your career in terms of being a pilot, an electrician, a train driver, obviously. and there should be more education about it, and maybe look for more solutions. on the jubilee line, that has been possible. the signal is — used to be the lights would be here, and i would have to stop at these lights, but this allows me to completely drive the train without any need for any signalling. as i'm driving, the yellow box will be pushing up, as the speed indicates, but i can now not go passed that red hand. now that we've moved over to more of an automatic operation, we don't actually need our drivers to be able to tell the difference between red and green lights now. we should be looking for ways that we can help people to work, regardless of any issues that they might have been born with. and that's pretty much, on the right—hand side of the screen, how most colour— blind people see the world. so you can see it's pretty murky... along with one in 12 males, marcus is colour—blind. these two colours here i have difficulty with.

i thought this whole side was correct. that's from three years ago, rememberthat? colour blindness happens when three cells in the eyes are missing or don't work properly. but the challenges posed by these genetic fault, which is far more common in men, go way beyond rubik's cubes. i did this worksheet in year! where you had to colour in the different balloons. obviously, i thought i'd done it right, but i hadn't, and my teacher marked me down for that. if colour blindness is not actually picked up at a very early age, children can be labelled naughty or slow or, you know, unruly. the department of education says it doesn't consider colour blindness a special educational need or disability. marie wants that changed, and for mandatory screenings to take place in all schools. many of the estimated two million people who have the condition

are never diagnosed. sinead agrees. she has two boys who are colour—blind. so many resources now are colour—based, with ipads and all of the printed colour material in the classroom. this has consequences for children, both in terms of their personal self—development and their education. how old are you, flynn? sinead's children were diagnosed here at the university of newcastle medical school, and while local authorities do deliver eye checks for young children, there is no routine screening for colour blindness. many believe its impact is being overlooked. tim muffett, bbc news. some fascinating issues that raises. joining us now is kathryn albany—ward, founder of the organisation, colour blind awareness. good morning and welcome to the programme. this story needs this

illustration to see quite what people with colour blindness are dealing with. start at the beginning about how important it is that we get this right. it's really important to understand the numbers, firstly, because it affects one in 12 men but only one in 200 women. most 12 men but only one in 200 women. m ost pa re nts 12 men but only one in 200 women. most parents and teachers don't realise those numbers, to start with. everything in school is colour—coded, these days. it's really important that children can access all the information right from the day they start school to when they pop out at the other end and that they've got a fair access to exam papers, which isn't currently the case. how did you come to get involved in campaigning?” found out my son was colour—blind when he was seven and it was a massive shock. i had no idea he was colour—blind and when i did a bit of research on it and showed him images of colour—blind simulation and normal, he said similar and he said they are the same and i thought that will impact on him and there was no information anywhere at that point

in time. that's how it started. you have brought in these props. we are looking at some of these images and we can replicate it with these football socks you've brought in. let's start with these on the sofa. you've been explaining to me how these essentially look the same, describe what we've got. the first myth is that colour—blind people don't see in black and white and secondly, they don'tjust mix up red and green. mixing up red and green in colour—blind terms means that red and green can look the same as that colour. our red sofa, to someone who has colour blindness, will look like this murky green colour. it can do. and the bright red that we might associate with the sofa and other things comes out that sort of green colour. yes. there was a colour—blind kick class, read against green, fans went mad. because the pitch and the kits looked the same colour as this. —— red against green. there are different kinds of colour blindness

and severity of the stock not eve ryo ne and severity of the stock not everyone will see exactly the same way but that is a general illustration to get the point across. you mention the football. it makes it incredibly confusing but for a child at school, it's really distressing and could have an impact on their learning. yes, what they do when the teacher is telling them things on colour, they instinctively try to work out what the colour is at the expense of listening. worksheets are all about colour—coded this and that. that is from reception stage. but up to exams, exam papers even now are not colour blind friendly and most children are not being diagnosed any more. that was phased out in 2009. based on a study of children born in 1958, when everything was in black and white! we need to screening back in and we need optometrists to screen children because our studies are showing that by the time children hit year seven, secondary school, 80% had never been screened. the children are not getting the

support partly because teachers aren't trained in how to spot the signs. you talk about the world of education. in that example, we heard of the tube driver, therefore, in the world of work. what is particularly stark, red and green, those are the colours of traffic lights, stop and go and all of those things that we are so conditioned to see as red and green. theyjust don't apply. no, they don't. not necessarily. there are slight changes in colour for traffic light, so you can tell the green apart but fire exit signs, you can't necessarily see where they are mounted on a wall. it affects everything in life. buying food, cooking food, buying clothes, what clothes to wear. everything. but schooling is a really bad because no educational resources have to be colour—blind friendly. it's really simple to make them colour—blind friendly by adding text and labels.

the really simple thing i want pa rents the really simple thing i want parents and teachers to take home is that if you label pencil crayons with the name of their colour or go through educational resources and put symbols or catching or text, something as well as colour, that solves a lot of problems. people just don't know to do it. simple changes would make a big difference. really nice to see you, thanks for explaining that and bringing in these examples, it really brings it to life. in a statement the children and families minister nadhim zahawi said: children identified as requiring additional provision, regardless of the cause, should have their needs assessed and appropriate provision put in place. we have been spoilt by carole this morning. you have upgraded to a horse from lambs and dogs. that's not carroll! i certainly have! good morning. this is from the knights of royal england. it's lovely, isn't

it? what a fabulous horse. his name is pedrairo, this is his first week of tournaments, he is a lovely spanish horse. you are jousting at blenheim palace, why? we come here every spring bank holiday, saturday, sunday and monday and today is our la st sunday and monday and today is our last day, anybody who hasn't come already, come to blenheim palace. two shows today, one at 12:30pm and one of 3pm. how did you get into this? bad luck. i started a long time ago when i was a teenager and i started a long time ago when i was a teenagerandl i started a long time ago when i was a teenager and i have continued ever since. we travel around britain and europe, putting on medievaljousting tournaments, we all have properjobs during the weekend we have a great time. lovely to see you and your beautiful horse, can we watch you trot off? absolutely. there he goes. perfectly manoeuvred. there he goes. a

magnificent specimen i think you will agree. it's been fabulous at blenheim and the weather has improved, not quite as cold with the sunshine out as it was earlier but for many of us it is a chilly start and temperatures will be below average for this stage in may. it will also be a dry day for many but having said that, for those that haven't got a dry day, some showers and some later across nottinghamshire and east anglia will be on the heavy side. we have a weather front across southern scotland producing some showery rain through the morning which will continue across northern england and northern ireland eventually getting into the midlands and east anglia. south of that, drier and brighter. it is the same for wales but for scotland, some showers north of the great glen, wendy across shetland and some of the showers will be wintry about 300 metres but the rest of scotland will see the sun come out when the rain clears away. northern england and northern

ireland, the rain will come your way, cloudy with that showery rain and it goes into the midlands and east anglia. as we head through the evening and overnight, the wind will start to ease across shetland and there will still be some showers around and it will be quite cloudy but where it breaks it will be cold. in sheltered glens in scotland, temperatures will fall as low as —3 or —4, you can expect some frost. another very cloudy day tomorrow with some bright spells and there will be some showers. later in the day, we will see the clouds thicken across south—west england and we will see the arrival of some rain. it will feel cool on the east coast with an easterly wind coming in. inland, it won't be that much better, temperatures still below average for the time of year. the evening and overnight, low pressure comes in from the south—west ringing gusty winds with it not just overnight but wednesday. 40, 40 5 miles an hour across some southern counties but if you have been crying

out for rain, across england and wales and possibly as far north as southern scotland, we will see some of that rain coming our way. some of it will be substantial. for the rest of scotland and northern ireland, a brighter day once again with a few showers around. temperatures up to about 15 degrees. but it will be cold in the wind. unsettled rest of the week. it's been brilliant being at blenheim palace this morning, thank you for your hospitality and let's take another quick look as jeremy and his lovely horse come galloping by. come on, jeremy! laughter look at that. what a beautiful horse. gorgeous! well done jeremy and his horse. palace life really suits you, carole. yes? i could get used to it! i mightjust move in, i

doubt anyone would notice. come home to us soon! that's fabulous. i think ca role to us soon! that's fabulous. i think carole interviewing jeremy on the horse is the opposite of my problem. where you have to talk to people like that... yeah, the other way around. we have been very conscious of our posture. this sofa is so bad for posture, not comfortable. we are talking about pilates, an important anniversary today. millions of people worldwide are already benefitting from it — but not many know it started on the isle of man — we can now go live there now and join our reporter rick faragher who's at the very site that inspired it. are you going to have a little go at it for us, rick? i've had a few goes this morning. no where near as good as these guys. they are so impressive. this was the very sight of where the first ideas of pilates

began. it was started by a german prisoner, joseph pilates, along with about 30,000 other foreign prisoner, joseph pilates, along with about 30,000 otherforeign nationals during the start of the first world war. he tinkered around with exercise ideas and 100 years later, millions of people all around the world now practice pilates but who was the man himself and why were people sent to the isle of man? one man who can tell us is the historian charles. so many men were sent here, why was the isle of man selected as there is huge internment side? when there is huge internment side? when the first world war broke out they we re the first world war broke out they were about 60,000 german nationals in britain who became suddenly enemy aliens put into internment camps. the isle of man was ideal. in ireland is more difficult to escape from but we already had a fantastic tourist industry and we were catering for 70,000 people a week and we had ships coming backwards and we had ships coming backwards and forwards. the island was already with its infrastructure an ideal place to put

these internees. this farmland was identified, it was open land, there was plenty of water. the camp was started and within a year, there we re started and within a year, there were about 23,000 germans and austrians interned here. remarkable story. i will continue to practice, i think story. i will continue to practice, ithinki story. i will continue to practice, i think i am a convert to pilates. they are loosening up their hips, bit of work on the quads, i am liking it. iwill continue bit of work on the quads, i am liking it. i will continue doing this. i'm absolutely rubbish. i am just average, perhaps i can become average. nothing wrong with being average! i quite like being average. that one is all right, i can do that one. you attempt that hip one? we have been having a go, we did this in the break earlier. this is table top... don't go in! let's point out where ben's feet are. can you pull back? resting his feet on the sofa!

that's not what you're meant to do! it's really difficult. that's just called relaxing! that's not pilates. i won't give up the dayjob. you did really well. at least you had a go. i'm learning. you are teaching me. you've got no hope, then! it is 8:54am. with thousands of young people across the uk about to sit exams — the pressure may be getting to them. but the bbc bitesize team are on hand, this year with love island's dr alex george and radio one's dr rahda modgil and they've got plenty of tips on dealing with stress. let's take a look. if you are feeling anxious, sometimes you could have a panic attack and what is happening is that your body is perceiving a threat or a danger. do you know what? i've had so a danger. do you know what? i've had so much stress in my life, particularly working on love island,

i should probably have some benefit. if you have a panic attack tell someone you trust and look after yourself. a problem shared is more thana yourself. a problem shared is more than a problem halved. revising for exams is stressful. talk to people who have done it. we're joined now by bbc bitesize ambassadors dr alex george and dr radha modgil. lovely to see you both. it is a stressful time of year, what can stu d e nts stressful time of year, what can students do? the main message is that you are not alone, there are lots of students who are at home stressing, worrying. it's not too late. there are loads of great things on bbc bitesize as well. there are resources about what to do before and after the exam, we are here for you. alex, do you think

things are changing slightly? now, students, children, are being encouraged to talk about feeling nervous and stressed and may be are given the tools to handle it. in terms of mental health, exams are so stressful and they put a lot of pressure on us it is important we have a conversation and say, i am struggling with my exams, i need a bit of support and that is what bbc bitesize is trying to encourage. we are therefore you we've got you, there are plenty of tools for you —— we are there for you. have a chat about things, how you are getting on and support is the main thing. it's gone full circle for you because when you were studying for your exams, you used bbc bitesize in a slightly different form. a lot more is online now. talk me through what difference it made for you.” remember having the bbc bitesize book like maths on the shelf, i needed that help. now there are so many tools. you can go online on the website, the app, social media, it is really helpful and it helps you get through what is a stressful

time. let's hand out some of the tips! what are they? don't sacrifice your sleep, sleep is really important. not just for your well—being to actually help you with what you have learned that day because we consolidate our memories while we sleep. how much sleep? as much as you need. it varies for different people but as much as you need. eat healthily, see your friends, get out, socialise, have a balance, don't get overwhelmed, have regular breaks in between revision. work for about 20 minutes to half an hour, have a break. i used to have a song break, dance around my room, those kind of things. very it, go outside to revise, revise with friends, don'tjust sit in your room worrying by yourself. it is that idea that you are not doing this alone, there are hundreds and thousands of other people doing this at the same time and most people you know will have been through this. that is the sort of thing, that shared experience that everyone has got to do it all going through it right now. absolutely. try to be

positive, everybody has got to go through it and it's about doing your best. we are now into exam season. try and practice mindfulness, i used to do ten minutes, the night before the exam, just a bit of music on, acquired in the room, let your thoughts settle, be positive, you can do it —— just quiet in the room. what about the people who haven't done enough work and they are at that crunch point? is it worth cramming? what advice? definitely don't cram, it is never too late. the set of exams i have, let's learn a few key points but don't try and overdo it. going in fresh, energised and rested having plenty of sleep can be far more beneficial. lovely to see you both. there is so much help available. you can find plenty more tips online at bbc.com/bitesize. lots of tips from these two to help you get through your exams. makes me
