hello, you're watching afternoon live. i'm simon mccoy. i was going to get to wear some boots, some walking today at 2pm: shorts and a t—shirt, we're in great yarmouth for a day of special coverage, but when than they broke it down looking at what it's like to live to me i said ok, give me the best pimp suit out of here. in britain's coastal towns. i didn't know how crazy people we'll analyse the challenges would be here today, the town faces but i was like i'm going to keep it and some of creative solutions a little more low—key. formula one racing driver lewis hamilton sported a black that are making an impact. and metallic suit that took 1500 we'll be exploring hours to make. the issue of housing here, as many former b&bs are bought up accessorising, i love accessorising. by private landlords. ijust love diamonds, they say diamonds are a woman's best we've got no heating whatsoever in here. friend, but i disagree, so how do you keep warm? i think it can be everyone‘s best friend. i don't. this year's playful theme made for a light—hearted red carpet. after all, camp means anything goes in our main news today, inquests open into the deaths of eight people killed and the bigger the better. in the london bridge and borough market attacks. time for a look at the weather. here's susan powell. as cross—party brexit talks continue, theresa may is under new pressure that lady gaga outfit would have from tory backbenchers come in useful because it is really cold in scotland, by the time you get into next week it will be

feeling more like spring or summer so feeling more like spring or summer so hopefully most of us will cast off layers for but here is braemar this morning in the snow. and we saw minus six in the highlands with a widespread frost in scotland, for all of us it is still a chilly story, disappointing temperatures for the time of year end wet and windy weather to come tomorrow, courtesy of this low waiting. quite a bit of sunshine out there at the moment but the recommend nans of a front across northern britain will bring heavier showers, into southern scotland, northern england, north wales, the midlands, and a few for northern ireland. top and tail decent sunshine but still chilly in scotland. top temperatures perhaps 15 across southern england. by the evening the cloud starts to veil into the south—west. wet and windy conditions will spread to much of england and wales by the it end of the night. a milder night than last night. still chilly in northern scotland. not as cold as last night.

the fronts not as ex ten sieve but we will see temperatures down below zero. here is that low for wednesday, an extensive beast, it will pull in cold air from the north sea on its northern flank, bumping into the cold air, could be wintry for a time into the cold air, could be wintry fora time in into the cold air, could be wintry for a time in the north, wet weather on the front further south and skies will brighten across southern england but the sunshine will trigger some heavy thundery showers, the wind a feature for scotland, channelling through the central belt. just seven degrees in aberdeen. it will feel cold right down the north sea coast where we have that wet weather. fortunately the low is going to start to pull away for the end of the week, so thursday still a messy picture across the northern half of the uk, wet, perhaps wintry and indeed cold, some sunshine further south, but our temperatures still lagging, highs mid teens at best so we are four or

five short in general, friday, a calmer story, the low pulls further away, chilly in the north east. a bit more cloud, a chilly breeze, but you can see it is starting to settle down, and that is our change for the weekend, and eventually into next week, through the weekend, high pressure will build, the weather will become drier, the winds lighter and going on into next week, finally, it looks like we will have something warmer, a reminder of our main story this lunchtime. inquests open into the deaths of eight people killed in the london bridge and borough market attacks. that's all from the bbc news at one — so it's goodbye from me, and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are.

what you the premier league title race will go right to the wire after manchester city returned to the top with a 1—0 win over leicester. it was a nervy night at the etihad — but there was a collective sigh of relief in the 70th minute when captain vincent kompany scored this superb goal — probably the most important of his career. city go into the last day of the season with a one point lead over liverpool. city face brighton on sunday. it is in our hands. so we cannot forget, we could have been ten points behind if we had lost against liverpool here. we were seven points behind, but we are in the last game, you know, our hands. mice before the premier league title race reaches a conclusion, liverpool must face barcelona tonight in the champions league.

jurgen klopp‘s side looking to overturn a 3—0 deficit from the first leg of their champions league semi—final. it's an even taller order given that they'll have to do it without mohammed salah who has concussion and roberto firmino, a muscle injury. we have to score for our goals against barcelona to go through after 90 minutes. it doesn't make life easier, but still, as long as we have 11 players on the pitch, and we will try it, and everyone knows that, that's what we want to show, nothing else. james haskell has announced that he's to retire from rugby union at the end of the season, after a fantastic 17 year career. haskell was capped 77 times by england — winning three six nations titles — but has been plagued by injuries since joining

northampton saints last year. the 34—year—old flanker spent most of his career with wasps, where he helped win the rugby champions cup in 2007. israel folau has been found guilty of a high level breach of rugby australia's player code of conduct. he had his contract terminated last month after saying that hell awaits gay people in a social media post. a three—person panel presided over a personal hearing that had been requested by folau after the initial sanction had been imposed. the panel will now consider what punishment the 30—year—old will face. leeds rhinos have sacked head coach david furner after just 14 league games. furner took over during the winter but leeds have struggled since his arrival. they are third —from—bottom of super league afterjust four league wins this season. richard agar will act as interim head coach until a permanent replacement is found.

kyle edmund is playing the italian fabio fognini at the madrid open. in the women's draw, joanna konta has been beaten in straight sets by simona halep. konta lost the final of the morocco open last week, began strongly again the world number three, before fading to lost the first set 7—5. halep picked up where she left off in the second set, and the british number one lost it 6—1. the romanian will face victoria kuzmova in the third round. five—time winner andy murray has been given a wildcard for queen's next month as he continues to work on a return to action. the former world number one will decide nearer the time if he's fit enough to compete. murray had hip surgery injanuary and has not played since. this year as 50—50. that's all the sport for now. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website.

west midlands police are investigating whether a video made by a ukip candidate in which he says he might rape labour mp jess phillips, breaks the law. carl benjamin, who is standing in the upcoming eu elections, sent her a tweet in 2016 saying: "i would't even rape you" — then last week shared a video on youtube saying "with enough pressure" he "might cave". jess phillips spoke to the derbyshire programme about what's been happening. i realised that i did what all women do in these situations, that i had put a brave face on it, pretending that it was all fine, saying i could cope. but then it dawned on me that for four years, this man has made a career out of harassing me,

and i felt harassed. i felt, how could somebody say that they would rape me if forced, and be a legitimate candidate in an election. it was one thing when he was just an idiot off the internet with a load of bros following him. it is a different thing when he is standing on the same platforms that i am standing on, that he will potentially go to a parliament himself as an elected representative, when he said these things, and ijust can't believe that our system is so weak at the moment that that is allowed to happen. and when you got home, you cried? yes, i cried in the street in birmingham city centre, as well. just because i felt the enormous weight of years and years and years of abuse, and ifelt, it's not that i'm frightened with a credible threat to me, actually, i'm not frightened that anybody is going to hurt me. you don't fear your physical safety? no, i really like living my life like a normal person, so i don't let that keep them very often.

but what i do fear for is my mental health, actually, and this is essentially like coercive control. sometimes, i'd rathersomeone were to punch me in the face, than the constant degradation that you suffer as a woman in the public eye. it is constant. it's constantly belittles you, it makes you do might blame yourself. you blame yourself? for what he said? i blame myself for accepting it for so long, and not doing more. i blame myself for not having to have changed directly the electoral commission rules which mean that they are absolutely completely, that their hands are tied in this situation, because people like me at westminster did not do enough to stop what is essentially the rise of fascism. i blame myself a little bit for that, and i blame myself for putting a brave face on it.

and i know that i shouldn't. and if i was talking to me, and i've talked to many people in my situation... your work before you became a politician, this was what you all about. i've said, don't blame yourself. unfortunately, we have all been conditioned, and i have been conditioned as much as anybody else. some news just some newsjust coming into us some news just coming into us from the ministry of defence, telling us that a british soldier has been killed while taking part in a counter poaching operation in malawi. guardsman matthew tolbert who served with the ist battalion coldstrea m who served with the ist battalion coldstream guards was killed on may the 5th while on his first operational deployment. they are not giving any more details about the incident, but they are saying he was hugely proud of his work as a counter poaching operator, and tragically died during great work. that's according to his commanding officer. so that, just in from the

ministry of defence, a british soldier killed while taking part in a counter poaching operations in malawi, about 30 british troops are stationed in malawi in this counter poaching operations. remarkable young people from across britain and ireland are being recognised with rotary young citizen awards. each year, rotary clubs across britain and ireland nominate youngsters for the awards — the winners will be presented with their prizes in nottingham on sunday. throughout the week, we'll be hearing from the winners , starting with 11—year—old alana habergham—rice from rotherham. i was nominated because of my charity work, so i run something called alana's care and cakes, where i take cake to people, free of charge, who are having a tough time. it's all free, we don't ask for a donation,

but sometimes people do donate. someone donates £20 a month towards ingredients and then any other money goes towards a little girl called daisy with cerebral palsy. daisy is a little girl who is two years younger than me, but i met her when she first joined my school. she has very severe cerebral palsy and she's one of my closest friends. and a lot of her funding isn't covered on the nhs. so, with all the fundraising we do, it helps to pay for her equipment. i've seen all the equipment and the treatment. you don't see the treatment, but you see the progress in daisy, when she's been on a treatment. it definitely feels good, because you know what you're doing is making a difference to someone. it definitely feels really nice to know that what you are doing is going to a good cause and it really helps her. i have been baking with my mum since i could walk and sit

on a counter and help. then when i was about four, i decided i wanted to do a cake stall to raise raise money for charity. then i did that for quite a number of years and then about two years ago, injanuary, istarted alana's care and cakes. we get all sorts of reactions, crying, happiness, lost forwords, anything you can imagine, it's like a really nice emotion. i think anything you are passionate about you should always go ahead with it, because even though you are one person, you can make a difference. another winner, 14—year—old anastasia blease, seen on the right, is a wheelchair basketball player, fast becoming a sporting hero after winning gold at a european tournament. born with spina bifida, she returned home with a gold medal

from the european championships in france with team gb‘s junior women under 24s. she was nominated by the rotary club of flint and holywell, who helped her buy a bespoke sports wheelchair. let's hear from anastasia now. i think i've been nominated, because recently i've obviously been to the european championships with the gb under 24 squad and we won gold there, so that was an amazing achievement for me. and, recently, i was associated with flint and holywell rotary and they've helped me fund a new sports wheelchair, which i would be lost without. it's, like, all i use, so i'm really grateful for that and i want to say thank you to them. and thank you to them for nominating me, because it means an awful lot, to be recognised for the sport, because it's an amazing sport. it's growing so much and it just deserves a lot more coverage than it gets. it has got support for those with disabilities.

you can come in and have a go, but it's all inclusive, so if you haven't got a disability, you can come along and see what it's about. when i was younger and before my disability was as severe as it is now, i used to do swimming. and i did dancing when i was really small, but as i got older, i wasn't able to do those sports, so i moved on to wheelchair basketball and i discovered... i went shopping and there was an advertisement stall and they saw that i was a wheelchair user, so they asked me if i had ever seen it before and i told them i had seen it, but i had never had a go. but then i did have a go and ijust fell in love and i have been doing it ever since. it was quite difficult when i first came into it, because, obviously, there are two of us who are 13 and i am just a bit younger than that other girl, but we are really close. and then you have the other end of the spectrum, which is they are 24, some of them have got children, like, fully grown women. and it's weird how we are all one squad, because we are all classed asjuniors, but we are a family and we all get along

amazing and they support us, because, obviously some of them have been to paralympics themselves. and they tell us what to do and how to go about it and we just have an amazing relationship between us. there's no fighting in the team. we're all, like, pretty close. i just want to thank wheelpower for recognising this award because it really is an amazing achievement to be recognised for a disability sport and an all inclusive sport but mainly focused on people who do not have the same opportunities. in able—bodied sport. many congratulations to all the winners. simon mccoy will be speaking to another of the winners in afternoon light. of the winners in afternoon live — 22—year—old sophie alderton, who's been volunteering since she was 14 and now runs a charity in southend—on—sea. that's just after 2.30pm. in a moment we'll have all the business news,

but first the headlines on bbc news: inquests open at the old bailey into the deaths of eight people killed in the london bridge attacks almost two years ago. congratulations from around the world for prince harry and meghan, as they announce the birth of a baby boy. cross—party talks to break the brexit deadlock are due to resume after disappointing results for both the conservatives and labour in the local elections. more than 5,000 people got scammed by fraudsters as they tried to book holidays last last year. the travel association abta says it happened as people bought bogus plane tickets, accommodation and organised tours. the average loss was more than 13 hundred pounds per person. shares in online estate agents purplebricks dropped by as much

as 8% in early trading, after founder and chief executive michael bruce left the company. he apologised for the recent disappointing performance of the company. xbox puts out its new games console today. for the non—gamers amongst you you might think, well, big deal. but the reason its got lots of people talking is because there's no disc drive, so you won't go out and buy a disc to put into the console. instead you'll need download your games from the microsoft store — and then play them. so another form of entertainment going away from the physical. ellie gibson, gaming journalist, joins me. thanks forjoining us. thanks for joining us. just thanks forjoining us. just talk us through a bit more in detail about how this is going to work? basically, this new machine is like the xbox one that is out at the moment, but the main difference is it doesn't have a disk drive. if you wa nt to it doesn't have a disk drive. if you want to play, you will have to download a game, and it means that

they don't have any desk, it's all digitally stored. it's interesting, i think there is definitely a move away from physical media, if we look at music for example and film, that's already happening. and services like netflix, streaming is becoming a big thing in the technological industry. i think the games companies are trying to prepare for that move in their industry, as well. is this a move that will really benefit to gamers, oi’ that will really benefit to gamers, or the company? well, microsoft's argument is they are trying to appeal to a generation have grown up without physical media. people are used to things being streamed for them, if that's the argument, then if you don't have to physically present a disk, you save cost, transport, retail, warehouse us. so there is a financial benefit to the company, of course. also, there is a thriving second—hand market in disks. what is going to happen to

people who have a load of those. well, that's it. microsoft have come a cropper in the past when they have tried to deal with the second hand market. again, it's about generational shift. there's argument that younger consumers are willing to a cce pt that younger consumers are willing to accept that they can't share content now. they pay a lower price, oi’ content now. they pay a lower price, ora content now. they pay a lower price, or a subscription, and instead of having it is a good thing, they can't share it, but they pay a bit less. is this the way that the entire gaming industry will go, do you think? what we should really be looking at, if we look at apple and google, they both announced a new streaming thing, so there will be no desks there, they won't necessarily even be a machine and your tv, you will be able to download a game or play it on your phone, or your device. they are looking to get rid of the machines entirely. that is quite an interesting shift, and could pay down that has quite an interesting threat to the people

like sony and microsoft. thank you for joining like sony and microsoft. thank you forjoining us. us trade chief robert lighthizer has accused china of backtracking on commitments made during trade talks, but insisted a deal on tariffs is still possible. the two sides have imposed tariffs on billions of dollars‘ worth of each other‘s goods. operating profits at bmw slumped almost 80% in the first three months of the year. it was forced to set aside more than £1 billion to cover a possible fine from eu competition authorities. that meant profits fell to just over £500 million. the us is sending more than $200 million back to malaysia after seizing assets linked to the country's state development fund one mdb. billions of dollars went missing from the fund in a major corruption scandal. let's have a quick update on what is happening with the markets.

the ftse slowing down — more fears about the trade war between the us and china after comments by donald trump. that's also hit the bank standard chartered — that's because a lot of its business is done in asia. prudential also under pressure for the same reason. thomas cook is on the rise, though. this comes after lufthansa said it would make an offer for thomas cook's german division. that's all the business news. thank you very much indeed. the life of a 12—year—old indonesian boy changed forever when he was caught up in a powerful earthquake last september. rizky, a manchester city fan, was buried under rubble, but survived — and when journalists reported on his story, a viewer offered the chance to travel to the uk to see his team.

last night he was welcomed as a very special guest at the etihad stadium. our reporter sofia bettiza has the story. a dream come true. from surviving a tsunami, to meeting your heroes, this is an incrediblejourney. we first met 12—year—old rizky in indonesia last year. he told us he was watching highlights of his beloved manchester city in an internet cafe, when an earthquake struck which killed nearly 2000 people. it was a miracle he survived. when we told riyad mahrez, his favourite player, about his story, he sent him a get well message. hi, rizky. how are you? i hope you are getting better. i heard that you were a big city fan. so i just want to wish you a good recovery. a few weeks later, a signed jersey arrived. but now, six months on, rizky is travelling to the uk.

i'm scared, but i'm also excited. it's his first time on a plane. bbc viewers saw his story and wanted to pay for him to come over and see his manchester city heroes. hi, rizky. welcome to the uk. what you have gone through is nothing short of terrifying, and you have been incredibly brave. i'm so happy you are here in manchester today, watching your favourite football team, and making your dream come true. he and his dad are special guests at the etihad stadium, as man city take on leicester. hi, rizky. how are you? good to see you again. a young football fan's dream

to meet their idols. so rizky, wejust heard from the club, and because you are a special guest, they would really like you to walk out onto the pitch with the team. a 7000 milejourney for this one moment. priceless. and finally, a meeting in person with his idol. hi, rizky! how are you, rizky? good? i remember you, all right! six months ago, rizky nearly died. now, a moment he will rememberfor the rest of his life. when i was under the rubble, i thought i wouldn't survive, but i did. and i'm grateful to god that i can be here and watch the football in real life. and meet my idol. it's what i've always dreamed of. now it's time for a look at the weather with susan powell.

good afternoon. there is quite a bit of sunshine around today, but despite that, temperatures delve rather on the disappointing side for may. it is going to stay pretty chilly this week. so more wet weather to come tomorrow courtesy of this area of low pressure in the atlantic. so the tail end of another where the fence straddling the uk currently. it has produced some thicker cloud. except heavier showers to the far south of scotland. and the midlands, as well. o nto scotland. and the midlands, as well. onto this evening and overnight, our low start to arrive into our shores. a wet night to come across england and wales, and because of the cloud and wales, and because of the cloud and the rain, a much milder night to the south. still chilly for

scotland, the frost not quite as widespread or as hard as last night, but we are looking at rural laze around freezing. on wednesday, the locals, pick up the easterly wind, could still see some quite wintry weather across the high ground here. further south, a spell of pretty heavy and persistent rain, but welcome rain, certainly lacking for this time of year for farmers and growers. quite windy though as the... and then as the showers arrive, which could be heavy and thundery through the afternoon. a tickly along our naughty —— particularly chilly along our north sea coast. quite a lot of cloud around, some quite heavy and persistent rain across eastern scotla nd persistent rain across eastern scotland and the north—east of england, showers developing further south. there should be a reasonable amount of sunshine across southern

england and south wales. by friday, quite a chilly northerly wind, running across eastern scotland and the east of england, showers developing through the day too, but the picture becoming quieter, temperatures the lagging. however, come the weekend, they weather will start to chat —— the weather will start to chat —— the weather will start to chat —— the weather will start to settle. through sunday and into next week, looks like something 00:29:26,915 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 warmer is on the way.
