in the scottish cup final at hampden park. spice girl fans get what they really, really want — as the band returns for their first tour in ten years. good morning. it is a largely warm and sunny start for this bank holiday weekend across much of southern and eastern england, but there as some cloud on outbreaks of rain in the north. it could be cool and disappointing. all the details coming up shortly. it's saturday the 25th may. our top story: more senior conservatives are expected to enter the race to become the next prime minister over the weekend after theresa may set out her timetable for departing downing street next month. four current or former cabinet ministers have already put their hat in the ring. mrs may had been under increasing pressure from both sides of her party over her handling of brexit as our political correspondent, jessica parker reports.

stepping out to acknowledge it's over. never easy to admit failure, list of all when so many are watching on. i will shortly leave thejob watching on. i will shortly leave the job that it has been the honour of my life to hold. the second female prime minister, but certainly not the last. i do so with no ill will, but with enormous and enduring gratitude to have had the opportunity to serve the country i love. theresa may had tried, time and again, to get her brexit deal approved by parliament. but yesterday's retreat signalled an end to those efforts at to something else. him, her, and more besides, declared or otherwise, names being talked about is leadership contenders, entering what looks likely to be a crowded field.

leadership hope fields will no doubt try to project a sense of purpose and optimism for the future, but there's no away from the present brexit deadlock, whoever comes next will inherit the same divided party and parliament here in west mr —— hopefuls. he is running for sure, declaring that the uk must leave the eu by the end of october, with or without a deal. forgive me, do not wish to elaborate now on what we are going to do and how we're going to it, but, believe me, you will be hearing possibly more about that and you necessarily want to hear. laughter. another one throwing their hat in the ring, for him leaving without an agreementjust isn't the answer. the ring, for him leaving without an agreement just isn't the answerlj think it's partly about positions on brexit. i think candidates who tried to run with a no—deal brexit and are pushing for what that means for our economy would find it very difficult to reunify the country. candidates

will offer up different visions of how to handle brexit and so many other issues, but that's the easy bit. winning sufficient support to deliver that vision so very much harder. jessica parker, bbc news. let's look now at how the weeks ahead should pan out. mrs may will step down as party leader on the 7th ofjune, but will stay on as prime minister until a successor is chosen. the race for the conservative leadership will begin formally on the 10th ofjune, with tory mps selecting two candidates, with the winner then being chosen by party members. the final result is expected by the end ofjuly, with the successful candidate expected to become britain's new prime minister. let's get the very latest from our political correspondent tom barton, who is in westminster now. and, tom, presumably the focus there has already shifted to who will replace theresa may? that's wright, rachel. after what has been the longest, most drawnout

and toa has been the longest, most drawnout and to a political career in modern times, attention today turns away from theresa may and onto her eventual successor. as we have seen, four names are already in the ring, as potentially taking the top job among those boris johnson as potentially taking the top job among those borisjohnson comedy former foreign secretary, seen by bookies as the favourite at the moment. although leadership elections can be incredibly unpredictable. jeremy hunt the current foreign secretary, is that he wants the job as does the former work and pensions secretary esther mcvey and the international development secretary, rory stewart. lots of other names are also likely to end up in the frame. we are expecting to hear from to end up in the frame. we are expecting to hearfrom people to end up in the frame. we are expecting to hear from people like michael gove, high—profile brexiteer and current agriculture sector, as well as andrea leadsom, the woman who was mps live a second choice to ta ke who was mps live a second choice to take thejob who was mps live a second choice to take the job when theresa may became prime minister a couple of years

ago. we expect to hear a lot more from some of these potential candidates over this weekend and the coming days before the race gets properly under way in a couple of weeks' diame. thank you very much. we have had quite a lot from some of them already. we'll be talking to one of those confirmed leadership contenders — rory stewart — atjust after eight this morning. six minutes pasztor six. —— past six. us troops have been deployed to the middle east as tensions between america and iran continues to rise. the relationship between the two countries has been strained for months, since president donald trump imposed sanctions on iran and backing out of the iranian nuclear deal. here's our washington correspondent, chris buckler. america is making its presence felt in the middle east. the pentagon has already deployed an aircraft carrier strike group to the golf and it has now announced that extra trips are being sent to the region. all actions intended to send a message

to iran, even if president trump has been playing down the possibility of conflict. we are going to be sending a relatively small number of troops, mostly project of. right now i don't think iran wants to fight, i certainly don't think they want to fight with us, but they cannot have nuclear weapons. as you know, mr president, from day one... with tension tightened, president trump is doing his best to maintain his relationship with saudi arabia, america's influential allied in the middle east. $3 billion, $533 million, $525 million. in the past he has boasted of their weapons sold to the saudis. now he is pushing through deals to them and others with a $10. crucially, he is also denying the us congress the right to approve the arms sales by declaring approve the arms sales by declaring a national security related emergency because of iran. that's

likely to ensure conflict in washington, even if the president insists he doesn't want a new fight in the middle east. chris buckler, bbc news, washington. universities in england should not "scaremonger" over their finances ahead of a possible reduction in tuition fees — that's according to the education secretary, damian hinds. the minister also said the government is looking closely at the quality of degrees and graduate earnings. there have been warnings that lowering tuition fees to £7,500 per year could put some institutions at risk of going bust. sarah walton reports. university say they're worried about money. a report due out next week is expected to call for a cut in tuition fees. but the secretary, damian hinds, claims universities across england are struggling financially is scaremongering. the au review was commissioned by theresa may to find ways of making

university education better value for money. it is expected to suggest ideas like lowering maximum tuition fees from more than £9,000 to £7,500 per year, limiting student numbers, and offering incentives for shorter, cheaper, two year degree courses. damian hinds has spoken in the past, revealing that while most sectors have had to tighten their belts since the financial crash, universities have seen their income from fees go up. he also pointed to an increase in the number of international students who pay more for tuition. but there have been reports of universities being on the brink of bankruptcy the man one institution has been revealed as having needed a bailout from the office of students. universities uk says any drop in fees should be replaced with funding from the government to avoid harm to students, the economy, and communities that benefit from universities. sarah walton, bbc news. an investigation is under way as a man and a woman are questioned on suspicion of murdering two boys

aged 13 and 1a in an incident at a house in sheffield. police were called to the property on friday and six youngsters were taken to hospital. the four other children are aged between seven months and 11 years and are not seriously injured. crew had to evacuate a cargo ship after it began tilting in the river mersey. the container vessel began listing at gladstone dock in liverpool in the early hours of yesterday morning. the maritime and coastguard agency said the ship was back on an even keel, and all crew were safe. girl power is back, you will be pleased to know. it never went away. time to look out your union jack dresses, tracksuits, platforms, and leopard print because last night the spice girls returned to the stage to kick off their arena

tour with their hit single spice up your life. baby, scary, ginger, and sporty took to the stage, minus posh, for theirfirst performance since 2012's opening ceremony of the london olympics. here's ben ando. scary, baby, ginger, and sporty, back onstage together after seven yea rs. back onstage together after seven years. no past, but that seem no problem to the 80,000 fans who'd come to dublin's croke park for this first show of the spice girls new world to. #so world to. # so tell me what you want, what you really, really want... the spice girls burst onto the scene in 1986. the message of girl power struck a chord and, apparently, it still does -- 1996. "1996. #if "1996. # if you want to get with me, better make it fast... it is unbelievable. john my expectations. it was amazing. —— beyond. john my expectations. it was amazing. -- beyond. it was fantastic. out of ten i would give it 20. spice girls! the spice girls

are, of course, now women in their mid— 40s. many of their fans at teenage daughters of their own. but the songs in the style are still selling. ben ando, bbc news. it was quite disconcerting when we arrived in the office this morning at 4am to hear people singing spice girls songs. that is a great way to start the day, what are you talking about? the production team were all confused. let's introduce you now to a puppy named ‘shuck‘, who has become the newest recruit at a thatcher‘s firm in norfolk. hejoins his owner, richard, on roofing jobs across east anglia, without showing any fear of heights. they've only been together for a few weeks, but have become inseparable. that is probably the sweetest thing i have ever seen. i am quite a cynical person but that is very cute. what will they do when he gets bigger? will he get too big for the roofing? look at him! it is such a

skilled job, too, being a factor. climbing the ladder. and he has got his food! very nice, just what you wa nt to his food! very nice, just what you want to the cockles of heart this morning. can we talk about that all day? we could. think people would prefer that. guess what we will be at speaking about all morning. theresa may has been the mp for maidenhead since 1997 and according to reports she will not resign her seat when she departs downing street. breakfast‘s tim muffett has been to her constituency to get the view of her constituents following her decision to quit as prime minister. as his local counsellor and then his mp, sowrey has known theresa may for 30 years. he saw this coming. mp, sowrey has known theresa may for 30 years. he saw this comingm mp, sowrey has known theresa may for 30 years. he saw this coming. it was expect did, i think she was actually pushed to go. and it was inevitable. asa pm pushed to go. and it was inevitable. as a pm she made a lot of mistakes. and, unfortunately, she was not a brexiteer, while trying to achieve a

brexit. and it was due by theresa may has been mp for maidenhead since 1997. westminster's 30 miles along the thames, whereas prime minister a goose may be cooked, but here there isa goose may be cooked, but here there is a steady stream of goodwill. she came in when she had a really tough job to do and i think everyone should have knuckled together and sorted out a solution to the country rather than fighting against each other trying to get around. she had a hardjob, other trying to get around. she had a hard job, really. other trying to get around. she had a hardjob, really. i don't think she was ever going to everyone was against. no matter what they did they opposed it. just to try to get around, think, really. she was a really good prime minister. so i'm actually not pleased that she is leaving. do you think she has been badly treated by her colleagues?” think so, yeah, i think so. maidenhead took its name from a 13 century timber wharf. it handled goods that were wooden and unbending, familiar descriptions of theresa may. she was very inflexible about wings. i think she has com pletely about wings. i think she has

completely misjudged the mood of the country. she may have been rigid at times, it is all about negotiation and working with people and trying to make it work for the uk, but that's a tough line to take for her. sol that's a tough line to take for her. so i think she did the best she could. once tory mps have whittled down the contenders to a shortlist of two, theresa may's replacement will be chosen by tory party members, just over 120,000 of them will be next leader and the next prime minister. lars is one of them. is that right that it is done that way? has been done that way for a number of years, it is quite fair that the membership at the option to choose. would you like to see on the shortlist and who would you like to vote for? i would like to see boris johnson on the shortlist. would also like to see gavin williamson on the shortlist. if i was to choose between the two, i would probably vote for boris. he would do quite a good job of running the country. better than theresa may, you think?

i wouldn't say that, but we are where we are stop by theresa may will remain mp here for the foreseeable future, but maidenhead's time as her constituency is a bout to end. and there are loads of pieces in the paper this morning looking back at theresa may's legacy. her speech yesterday she appeared to be very emotional. perhaps the only photograph on the front pages. we will look more out her career and what happens to the conservative party throughout the morning. good morning. desperately trying to cheer everybody up. not quite as promising as it was over easter weekend and the first bank holiday. but considering, it is not too bad. some sunshine. rain arriving from the west and moving southwards. the

weekend becoming cooler. the weather front pushing in from the atlantic bringing cloud and rain into scotla nd bringing cloud and rain into scotland and northern ireland to start with. an increase of cloud from the west generally so the best of the sunshine, eastern england, east anglia, south—east england. the sunshine turning hazy. some rain into scotland. notably cooler. the rain gradually pushing into the north—west england and north wales by the end of the afternoon so overnight it will sink steadily eastwards. a dry scenario for much of england overnight. you can see that rain just getting heavier up to the far north of scotland. seven degrees overnight. 1a to start our day on sunday. 0n degrees overnight. 1a to start our day on sunday. on sunday, it is a slow deterioration as we go through the day because the cold front pushing in from the west bringing

rain stop some of it heavy into scotland, northern england and wales. gradually they will push its way into the midlands and at the south—east corner. eventually, we will see rain and it is south—east but behind it and improving picture. away from the far north of scotland a little bit of sunshine. cold in the exposed coast. the cold front hopefully it moves away from bank holiday monday and you can see quite a few isobars so a noticeable breeze from the north—westerly direction. 0n the exposed coast it will be cooler. the best of the weather for bank holiday monday looks likely to be in sheltered eastern areas. but not quite as warm. these temperatures just slightly below where they should be this time of year. enter tuesday, the front will ta ke year. enter tuesday, the front will

take those showers away. the wind direction from a northerly direction. half term for many next week and it will get noticeably cooler and at times, what a surprise, a little bit more rain around. it was inevitable that would occur as the holidays. we'll be back with the headlines at 6:30. now it's time to join carrie gracie and mark kermode for the film review. hello and welcome to the film review on bbc news. to take us through this week's cinema releases is mark kermode. you aren't here to announce your candidacy for the leadership of the conservative party? thankfully not! what are the big releases? we have aladdin, the latest disney live—action remake. rocketman, which isn't a biopic,

more a musical about eltonjohn. nobody knows that we are fun. and booksmart, which has been described as superbad for girls. aladdin first, did guy ritchie rub the magic lantern with this? that's very good! you havejungle book, cinderella and dumbo and now this, so it is like disney is working through the back catalogue, turning those animations into live action movies. now we have this one, the street rat turned royal suitor. he needs the help of a genie, played by will smith, and it was robin williams in the original animation. there's a strange sense of watching something that is new, but also a sense that you've

seen it before. can you make me a prince? there's a lot of grey area in, "make me a prince." i canjust make you a prince. 0h, right. you'll be snuggled up with that dude for the rest of your life. be specific with your words. it's in the detail. i don't understand, if she likes you, why change? she has to marry a prince. ok, i can do that. kind of the same but different. better? no, definitely not. you know when you asked about guy ritchie and the magic lamp, i thought about king arthur not pulling the sword out of the stone. in terms of this he makes it work, there's no question that it's fun and enjoyable. it makes some updates, especially in the character of princess jasmine, who is much more the agent of her own destiny. she has her own song.

they have reject some of it. i'm not entirely sure, actually i am sure what the artistic point of redoing these films is. i know that the financial point is that they end up being very successful. will smith does a pretty decentjob. very hard doing that role because when the animation was done, so much of it was robin williams riffing, and then they built the animation around his improvised riffs. you don't have that. you have something that is efficient, a die—hard story, updated slightly, they've made some changes which are admirable. but a lot of the time you get the feeling that i know this already and it's impossible not to miss the robin williams animation. plus, i love animation. i have to say, i'm cautious about embracing the idea of taking the animated films and making it as a live action because i'm not sure what the point is, other than ticket sales.

you mentioned the song forjasmine. is it a proper feminist update? it's a good, catchy and empowering song. the fact that they've done that may be justification enough. i'm slightly cautious about this whole thing about working through the animations. i'm not sure this is a great thing. that's fine and it does the job. then you get to rocketman, which is not a biopic of eltonjohn, it is a musical based on his life, directed by dexter fletcher, who was brought in to save bohemian rhapsody when it was falling apart, bryan singer. i think it's wonderful. we were talking about the trailer before. the trailer is amazing. often an amazing trailer means the film isn't so good but the movie is every bit as good. firstly, whereas bohemian rhapsody had a problem with the timeline which meant that if the songs are in

the wrong place, it is irritating. but because this is a jukebox musical, you can put the songs wherever you like. secondly, taron egerton is brilliant. he doesn't look like elton john but it is the physicality of the performance, the chest forward but looking like he is vulnerable behind the glasses. the film is about a little kid who wants a hug. a central relationship between him and bernie taupin, which has the tenderness such as in captain fantastic. it almost looks like it's been directed by ken russell. i'm a big fan of him, dexter fletcher has worked with him. there are scenes that i think ken russell would have loved. tributes to mgm musicals, fantasias. the whole thing just

swept me off my feet. authorised but not sanitised, right? absolutely, there was a thing with bohemian rhapsody being family friendly, but this, it's a story of sex and drugs. finally enough, it owes a structural debt to the ian durie biopic, sex & drugs & rock & roll, which was set up as a vaudevillian stage show with ian durie as the unreliable narrator. here you have elton writing his story from rehab. he walks into rehab dressed in a costume that makes him look between a demon and a chicken. he goes into this self—analysis. i read one review, "i am eltonjohn, i'm an alcoholic, a sex addict, and i have a problem with shopping." he also says "i am elton hercules john," adding to the absurdity. wonderful. talking about sex and drugs, they feature in your next movie.

they feature in the trailer for booksmart. talking about trailers, the trailer makes booksmart look like it is a superbad film but it is more than that. directed by olivia wilde, kaitlyn dever and beanie feldstein are playing amy and molly, who have spent their school careers not partying, being focused on education so that they can get two good colleges but the end of term is coming and they are realising that they might have missed out. mark your calendars and make plans to attend the drama department summer programme shakespeare in the park. we will be performing the bard's comedeis as modern tragedies, outside whole foods across town. it's what we did in my programme last year, when i lived in barcelona. i will be directing. and alan may be starring,

depending on auditions. i don't audition! this looks fun but i'm not going to be here. yeah, amy spending the summer in botswana making tampons. i'm saving lives. i have a fear of big cats. i can't because i'm working all summer, and also i don't want to. you are a philistine. why would you be here when you can debate? that is really funny and what i like about it, it is funny, i laughed all the way through, but at the heart of it it has that american graffiti end of an era feel about it, they are going their separate ways and it is sensitive about theirfriendship. it is evenhanded about the characters with regard to race, gender and sexual orientation.

it looks at all of them with an open mind. funny but never mean, it doesn't have that mean spiritedness which runs through some films. it reminds me of bridesmaids in that it has that same sense of being about friendship, someone going from single to married, in this case going from school to college. the essence is the same, what your friends mean to you. for all the stuff that's in the trailer, the animal house—style bad behaviour, it is very sweet and funny and well—written, and very well played. and for everyone, notjust for teenagers, young people? i'm 57, however old it is, and i laughed all the way through. excellent! that's a recommendation. the best? i love birds of passage, a colombian film about the birth of the drug age. birds of passage is really terrific.

a story brilliantly told. it was described by a film—maker as not the godfather, it is the godmother, it has the same sense of epic sweep. you'll have to seek it out because it is arthouse. and on dvd? burning, a three—way love triangle that may or may not be a murder mystery. i've seen it three times and i don't know how to define it but it is haunting and i was mesmerised. you sold them all to me, i will spend the weekend in the cinema! that's it, thank you for watching.

hello, this is breakfast with rogerjohnson and rachel burden. here's a summary of today's main stories from bbc news. a new prime minister could be in place by the end ofjuly. four current or former cabinet ministers have already put their hats into the ring. asjessica have already put their hats into the ring. as jessica parker have already put their hats into the ring. asjessica parker reports. stepping out to acknowledge it's over. never easy to admit failure, least of all when so many are watching on. i will shortly leave the job that it has been the honour of my life to hold. the second female prime minister, but certainly not the last. i do so with no ill will, but with enormous and enduring

gratitude to have had the opportunity to serve the country i love. theresa may had tried, time and again, to get her brexit deal approved by parliament. but yesterday's retreat signalled an end to those efforts and the start of something else. him, her, and more besides, declared or otherwise, names being talked about is leadership contenders, entering what looks likely to be a crowded field. leadership hopefuls will no doubt try to project a sense of purpose and optimism for the future, but there's no getting away from the present brexit deadlock. whoever comes next, will inherit the same divided party and parliament here in westminster. he's running for sure, declaring that the uk must leave the eu by the end of october —

with or without a deal. forgive me, i do not wish to elaborate now on what we're going to do and how we're going to it, but, believe me, you will be hearing possibly more about that and you necessarily want to hear. laughter. another one throwing their hat in the ring, for him leaving without an agreement just isn't the answer. well, i think it's partly about positions on brexit. i think candidates who try to run with a no—deal brexit and are pushing for what that means for our economy would find it very difficult to reunify the country. candidates will offer up different visions of how to handle brexit and so many other issues, but that's the easy bit. winning sufficient support to deliver that vision so very much harder. jessica parker, bbc news. let's look now at how the weeks ahead should pan out. mrs may will step down as party leader on the 7th ofjune,

but will stay on as prime minister until a successor is chosen. the race for the conservative leadership will begin formally on the 10th ofjune, with tory mps selecting two candidates, with the winner then being chosen by party members. the final result is expected by the end ofjuly, with the successful candidate expected to become britain's new prime minister. we will talk about that through the course of the morning and will speak to rory stewart, a confirmed contender, at eight o'clock. us president donald trump has sent 1,500 troops to the middle east as tensions with iran escalate. the deployment includes surveillance and fighter aircraft, and a patriot missile defence battalion. the relationship between the two countries has been strained for months since president donald trump imposed sanctions on iran and backed out of the iranian nuclear deal. universities in england should not "scaremonger" over their finances ahead of a possible reduction in tuition fees — that's according to the education secretary. damian hinds has also warned

the government is looking closely at the quality of degrees and graduate earnings. there have been warnings that lowering tuition fees to £7,500 per year could put some at risk of going bust. a review of how to fund post—18 education is expected to be published in the coming weeks. an investigation is under way as a man and a woman are questioned on suspicion of murdering two boys aged 13 and 1a in an incident at a house in sheffield. police were called to the property on friday and six youngsters were taken to hospital. the four other children are aged between seven months and 11 years and are not seriously injured. crew had to evacuate a cargo ship after it began tilting in the river mersey. the container vessel began listing at gladstone dock in liverpool in the early hours of yesterday morning. the maritime and coastguard agency said the ship was back on an even keel, and all crew were safe.

half—an—hour ago we showed you these pictures and i think it is safe to say, and all the things we have discussed in the first half hour of the programme, this one has resonated the most to the people at home. this is a puppy named ‘shuck‘, who has become the newest recruit at a thatcher‘s firm in norfolk. hejoins his owner richard, on roofing jobs across east anglia, without showing any fear of heights. amazing, isn't it? they've only been together for a few weeks, but have become inseparable. we will just leave those we willjust leave those pictures on, shall be, for a little while? for the next three hours, that would be great. he is very cute. absolutely adorable. watch him as he claims a ladder. on if he will be as enthusiastic when he is older and bigger. probably. this tiring worker. it will be interesting to see if anybody else out there have pets who go to work with them and

actively help in some shape or form. get in touch with us at bbc brea kfast. get in touch with us at bbc breakfast. i am not sure that the jumble would make much of a contribution. it could liven things up. holly's here with the sport. have you got a pet? i am not sure he is inhibiting much in terms of work. my is inhibiting much in terms of work. my biggest regret in life is not having a job where i could bring my dog to work. really? you could probably do that. i think people would be happy enough. let us get the debate about breakfast dog.” could bring my goldfish and just sitting there. low maintenance. he could not contribute much to the quality of conversation. i'm not even sure if you could class it has been cute. go on, off you go. talking about the scottish cup final. celtic are on for a travel travel. their third domestic travel

ina travel. their third domestic travel in a row. standing in theirway travel. their third domestic travel in a row. standing in their way is hearts. if you look back hearts were leading the premiership at the start of the season. it has not gone that well. celtic fans will be feeling pretty confident today. can you imagine the chance to win an unprecedented travel travel at the scottish cup final at hampden which ta kes pla ce scottish cup final at hampden which takes place this afternoon. they've already won the league cup and the premiership title and have won every scottish honour available for the past three seasons. but standing in the way title are hearts, who have not won a game since their semifinal victory over a month ago. it's about the players, on the cusp of something very special. however, we have to play the game. we have to bea we have to play the game. we have to be a very motivated, hungry hearts team. some of their players will be playing in the first cups final. you'll never get the opportunity to do that again. they will be hungry for it as well. we have to play the game, and not the occasion.

we are coming for the single single. it isjust as important we are coming for the single single. it is just as important to we are coming for the single single. it isjust as important to us. we have re ce nt it isjust as important to us. we have recent history of beating celtic. and i feel the preparation for the game, particularly the last two or three weeks, has gone extremely well. and it's also the league two play—off final later, newport county against tranmere rovers — you can keep across it on the bbc sport website. england's women take on denmark in walsall later, in their penultimate warm—up match before the world cup in france. head coach phil neville said the starting line—ups for the final two friendlies will provide a good indication as to his starting 11 for theirfirst game against scotland. he says his side will be ready for the pressure of france. we have not gone easy on them, with not let them cut corners, and would not let them cut corners, and would

not let them cut corners because when it comes to nice on the ninth ofjune, it will become the expectation will be on england, expectation will be on england, expectation will be on england to be in the tournament. an eye on them to be ready for that, and if they are prepared and they go out ready to enjoy themselves, there will be a force to be reckoned with. well, phil neville was floored by the ultimate insult in training yesterday — nutmegged by one of his own team alex greenwood with the skills and toni duggan luckily on hand to film it. oh, the shame. 0ver over the seam. you can't do that to your head coach, can you? —— oh the shame. and england against denmark is live on bbc one this afternoon, kick off is at one o'clock. we're only five days away from the start of the cricket world cup — and there was worrying news yesterday for england, the tournament's hosts and favourites. captain eoin morgan picked up a finger injury in practice and while he's expected to be fit for their opening

game against south africa on thursday, he'll miss today's warm—up match against australia in southampton — one that brad haddin expects to be a pretty tense affair. you are starting to get really close to that first came out, so it's really important that wicket into some really good habit and there's no better way than to get that competitive edge than a practice game against england. i think we can talk a lot about it being a practice game, getting the miles on your legs, but once you walk across the line pride takes over and you want to do well against england. we have a big weekend of rugby union in store, with two premiership semi—final play—offs and the pro14 final. more than 40,000 fans are expected at celtic park for glasgow warriors against leinster. warriors are on a nine—match winning run, but leinster are defending champions. it's a massive day for the whole squad, for extended people, and backroom staff, and so on, just a hell of a lot of work from a hell of a lot of people stop and so that

makes it special. but, yeah, we can't wait for the whistle to roll. the rugby league posts are up at liverpool's anfield stadium, for the annual super league festival, the magic weekend, with six matches over two days. it's part of plans to showcase super league in different parts of the country, to widen the sport's appeal. and for the players, it's a chance to play at an iconic football stadium. i got igota i got a chance to go there on monday and do the promotion and just walking down the tunnel go down to the field and you hear the you'll never walk alone and the sounds on the side of the wall in the change room, it's an event i've been looking forward to since i've signed. can't wait to get a taste of what it is like to play on there. you can imagine walking out into somewhere like enfield, there are very few stadiums quite like it when you have that feeling for rugby league players. the fans love it as well, don't they? a magic weekend, a

thrilling experience for everyone. it is brilliant. thank you, holly. if you think about snow sport events you'd expect skis or boards to feature but a new freezing challenge that has already proved a hit in europe requires neither. in what must be a mike bushell first, he's been tackling yetis in conditions usually found in the north pole rather than in milton keynes where he's been competing in a snow storm race. deep breath at the top of the ski slope, taking it all in, ready to descend. there's just one thing missing, we've got no skis. running on the snow was an obstacle in itself. for us it's the while, which is not that high, but when you consider, when you consider your feet and your hands are slipping,

might need a bit of a hand. having started up in europe, optical racing on the snow is now coming to the uk to challenge our fitness in this new way. and when you get down on the hard snow, it was a bit painful at first. heavy snow ski gear, that wejust painful at first. heavy snow ski gear, that we just weigh you down, slow you down. music plays. it is just to slow you down. music plays. it isjust to offer something a bit different. people have been doing mud runs for the past six or seven years. the something you in the sequence of activities. people find it really fun. running on snow is a bit like running on santaromita ‘s hard work. you have a 15 degrees incline, which is tremendously hard. you also have minus four degrees, which is hard to run in. so it is a biggerfitness challenge than anyone will have had before. go, go, keep your head down, go! actually a cuddle from a yeti

was a chance to feel a bit on for a few seconds. having said that, by the top of the course we had worked up the top of the course we had worked upa the top of the course we had worked up a sweat anyway. go on, get up there. this is not like any ski lift they have ever been on. you have to do all the work. it was really hard. they did not think it was going to be this hard. also because of the cold, as well. i'm finding it hard to breathe. it is an entirely different experience. using different experience. using different muscles. working the core, working your leg. the physical environment may have been cold, but the one thing the group meant that eve ryo ne the one thing the group meant that everyone got round. excellent, yeah, it's very good. 0nce everyone got round. excellent, yeah, it's very good. once you get used to the course. in the cold. having a challenge, running against the snow and also my other friends as well, it's really good. it's a pretty good challenge. for me, especially, good for my mental health. it's only a

few hundred yards, but what a workout this is. and for some of those taking part from the milton keynes running group, this was the first ever taste of exercise on snow and opiates through this more people will be tempted to take up snow sports as well. i have never skied before. i don't know how to ski, but i'm thinking about taking up skiing. after a ll thinking about taking up skiing. after all the hard work it was downhill all the way. music plays. mike bushell, bbc news, from milton keys. that doesn't look like a lot of fun. he is good at going downhill fast. you struck a chord when you asked for pictures of pets at work. we will show some of you later. loads

of those, anything to distract us from what is going on at the moment. some grey clouds and the background, louise? you need to stop me following that item about dogs at work. i know all about being in love with your pet. talking of going downhill fast, i'm afraid that is what happening with the bank holiday weather. a lovely start but some rain around and it will get colder. next week is half term as well. if you're going to be going out with the kids, that is worth bearing in mind. temperatures below average. the reason why it is a turning unsettled, this area from high pressure from the atlantic bringing rain to scotland and northern ireland through the day to day. it will be a slow process but introducing more cloud to western

areas. the best of the weather eastern pennines, east anglia, eastern pennines, east anglia, eastern england and the south—east corner with the best of the sunshine. a cooler story into scotland. if we're lucky the south—east could see highs of 23, just like we had yesterday. as we go through the night tonight, the cloud rain continuing through scotland. 0utbreaks rain continuing through scotland. outbreaks of rain continuing through scotland. 0utbrea ks of light rain continuing through scotland. outbreaks of light rain in the south—west but not amounting to much until the end of the night. it stays dry for the bulk of england and wales. sunday quite promising but more rain to come because of the cold front will start to present from the atlantic. the isobars squeezing together and the wind digging up. rather breezy, some of the rain quite heavy across scotland, northern england and into wales. eventually it will push its way into the midlands and the south—east corner. it will start to weekend but rain into the afternoon. behind it a brighter story with some

sunshine with the exception of the far north of scotland. by bank holiday monday, the cold front sweeps through. introducing colder, fresher air. the wind from the north—westerly direction. you will feel chillier in the north coast. shari rain across scotland, northern ireland. sheltered eastern areas with the best of the sunshine and thenit with the best of the sunshine and then it turns a little more u nsettled then it turns a little more unsettled and cooler. it is half term, if you're out with the kids that in mind. we look forward to receiving your pets at work photographs. we'll be back with the headlines at 7:00. now it's time for click.

welcome to london's piccadilly circus, one of the busiestjunctions in the city, popular with tourists on the way to the world famous west end theatres. and that's why the biggest brands pay huge money to advertise on those enormous billboards. but why go big when you can go small? 0ur mobile devices nowadays know more about us than we do. this almost unrestricted flow of information is a goldmine for advertisers and other groups who want to target us with their messages. not just about what to buy, but also about what to think, and maybe even how to vote. so, exactly one year ago, new eu legislation came into force.

gdpr is designed to stop companies from endlessly collecting and storing our data without us ever knowing. if you live anywhere in europe, these notices appear to let you know that the website you're looking at is about to collect some data from your device. delve in and you can choose how your information is shared and collected. well, that's how it should work, anyway. but what's bothered me over the past year is just how complicated some sites make it to switch off the data collection. the option to actually opt—out is often obscure, the process of opting out is long and confusing, and even then you might not be able to opt—out completely without going to lots of other websites and individually opting out there too. i don't think many of us really understand the options and even if we do, come on, how many times could you notjust be bothered and just press accepted all anyway?

hmmm, i'm not sure gdpr is working as intended, are you? the good news is, this legislation is notjust about restricting how our data is collected, it also gives us the power to ask companies what information they hold on us. so that's exactly what carl miller set out to try to do. i'm on a battle to get my data back. hi there. can i make a subject access request under gdpr, please? a subject access request did you say? yes, to exercise my right to be informed about all data which is held on me. if you live in the eu, you can use something called a subject access request to ask companies for a copy of your data. all sorts of businesses hold onto our personal information, from banks to supermarkets to media organisations. the whole process is supposed to be straightforwards.

i've gone on their website and it doesn't work! there's no e—mail. now i have an e—mail address. you're supposed to pick your own channel for making these requests. and these are only the businesses i directly work with. most people don't realise how companies you've never heard of have bucketloads of about you. every click you make, and maybe not make, may be recorded and shared. this is the business of personal data. theirjob is to scoop up every crumb of information they can get hold of, both from public and private sources, and analyse it to understand me. or at least try. 0ne company i got my information from had drawn data from hundreds of different sources to create thousands of different guesses about what i'll be like as a consumer. these companies have created a strange digital copy of myself that i don't even recognise, making presumptions i don't necessarily agree with. all the while i'm thinking i'm getting things for free, so little nuggets of information leaving my life and getting collected by others,

it doesn't really matter. but now i'm beginning to feel i'm the product and it is me that people are getting for free. frederike kaltheuner is a data and privacy campaigner, and i sat down with her to talk through my concerns. there are two separate types of harms. when it's accurate, it's very creepy, and you'll be, like, "why does this company knows how much alcohol i consume?" but when it isn't, it can be equally concerning, maybe you're misclassified as something negative and you aren't, but you're not aware that the company... somewhere in some database a company think you're a gambler and there's nothing you can do about it. this is my new vacuum cleaner, the robot i've been dreaming of for many years. and like many other smart devices, to operate it, i first have to download its companion app. i just scanned over the terms and conditions because otherwise i'll be here forever. according to one study, it takes 76 days to read

all the privacy policies that we come across online. and then the cleaner starts mapping my house, but now i'm suspicious and i go to check it's not hoovering up things i haven't bargained for. i'm off to imperial college. here, researchers have been looking at how internet of things devices, from child monitoring cameras to light bulbs to smart plugs, can collect and share our data. let's start off with my vacuum cleaner. so we brought the hoover into the lab and we have realised the hoover is a little bit more than a hoover. we analysed the wi—fi data and we saw that the hoover is sharing the floor maps with some server in china. and it's notjust a vacuum cleaner, this is a monitoring camera meant to keep us secure but in fact it's sharing data with 51! partner organisations. collecting data is a common practice for lots of internet—enabled vices — after all, they need it

to function properly — but there's very little transparency, so we have no way of knowing how much a device needs itself to work and how much is being given away. sometimes with these devices, we notice there's an inverse relationship with the amount of data they collect and their price. so cheaper devices, they are financed, in a way, with your personal data. so they're collecting tons of data about you and send it to tens of servers around the world. it's really strange how actions you think are really trivial — switching on a light, switching on a smart plug, changing the volume on your tv or, of course, cleaning your floors — can actually be telling so much about you to companies you're not even aware of. stop tracking me! gdpr says it doesn't matter where the company is based or product is made, you still have the right to your information. but if you don't know who to ask, how can you ask? i've spent over a month making requests from 80 companies, and around a dozen have replied.

so this is what it actually looks like to get your data back. i'm probably 100 e—mails deep now, and yesterday, by recorded delivery, this slightly crumpled white envelope turns up at my front doorstep. sp thank you so much, gdpr, i've got my data now. and it's in huge quantities. so if i was to print out all the data that i've got, well, this is 1,000 sheets of paper, i would need seven stacks of this if i was to print out all of it. for all its faults, i have no doubt, gdpr is the first step in the right direction, but i fear ultimately we, the users, will be the real instigators of change. until we demand it, we are accepting to carry on living in a system that we know precious little about but that certainly knows a lot about us. now, did you know that there are a whole host of effects artists working across instagram, of all places. we went to visit one in modena,

in italy, home of balsamic vinegar and ferrari, amongst others, to find out why. my name is simone vezzani, i am a 3d artist based in italy, and i publish content for social media. if somebody thinks that what i do is real, for me this means that i did a good job. i choose instagram because it is full of people that they are just watching and get amazed at what they see.

# i don't want to set the world on fire...# i started record footage about my own life, my travel, my trips, my visits, museum visits, for example. and i start to mix them with digital content. platform for this kind of content, instagram, was perfect because people are not used to see and to watch this kind of media content in this platform. when i was younger, i was really obsessed about video games. suddenly i grew up and i realised that for living

i have to work somehow. i found this kind of software and this 3d software in particular for me is another way to see these video games, because inside this kind of software i can manipulate and create everything i want. i usually spent something like one, two, maybe three weeks working on one single video because i'm alone and i have to take care of every single aspect. i don't consider myself as an artist. i'm really happy when someone told me that i'm an artist, i'm a surrealist or something like that, but i'm simply a guy who likes to play with computer and experiment new techniques, new styles, new ways to see the world.

the rather talented simone vezzani, finishing off the shortcut of click for this week. the full—length version is up on iplayer, you can watch that right now, and if you'd like to follow us throughout the week, we are all across social media — youtube, instagram, facebook and twitter too @bbcclick. thanks for watching, and we'll see you soon. good morning. welcome to breakfast with rachel burden and roger johnson. 0ur headlines today:
