the expenses policy, train. the expenses policy, bearing in mind it went up by 3% this year, they have examples here and the cheapest flight brought by the staff wasjust under 20 cheapest flight brought by the staff was just under 20 quick cheapest flight brought by the staff wasjust under 20 quick flight cheapest flight brought by the staff was just under 20 quick flight from cardiff and the cheapest single rail ticket costs £84. it's absolutely astonishing, but they say air travel should be used where it represents the most cost—effective option. there would be surprised. they did leave a hell of a carbon footprint. thank you both very much indeed. that's it for the papers tonight, don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online. it is all there for you seven days a week. and if you missed the programme and evening you can watch it later on on bbc iplayer, so thank you again and next on bbc news it is 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. 50 mark, what do we have this week? we have brightburn, which is a horror movie meets superhero, we have toy story 4, a trilogy no more, and the flood, a moving drama about the refugee crisis. something for all the family. brightburn is like a dark superman. it's a very strange film, it's produced byjames gunn who made guardians of the galaxy.

a couple are trying for a baby when an asteroid lands outside their home in kansas. several years later, they have an adopted son who they love very much and is hitting adolescents and starting to act up like all teenagers, but meanwhile there are a series of increasingly weird and violent events playing out around this small town. here's a clip. come on! stupid piece of... 0k, time to go. nope? no! out of here! stop!

you saw all the references to superman, the kid's initials, everyone thinks of clark kent. there are lots of individual elements which remind you of the superman story, it's like man of steel but with a darker twist. there are also influences like carrie, a young girl with telekinetic powers. it also reminded me of an old episode of the twilight zone called it's a good life where a community are in fear of a child in control of everything, but what is impressive is how well and how long it managed to sustain just being a drama about two parents who desperately want a son and now they have one, but there is a secret in his past. elizabeth banks is terrific

as the mother who just wants to look after her son and wants to protect him despite the fact that she knows he's not like other children. it's not for everybody, a couple of people came out of it saying, "i didn't get that at all," but i liked the way it played with the superman mythology. i'm not a big comic book fan, but i knew enough to understand where it was going and i thought it was strange and quirky and there were moments in it that were quite nasty and moments that were quite funny. i'd also say if you are really interested in a sideways glance at superman mythology, remember the old film punch—drunk love? that is an allegory of superman as well so brightburn makes a good double bill with it. it's an intriguing idea, to turn the superman story on its head. one of the tag lines is, "he's not here to save the world," and i like that. what if an adolescent had powers and what if it

wasn't working out well? i like the fact it has horror elements, it has a super hero elements, but it also feels satirical and like it's unpicking something with which we are all familiar and making it scary and challenging. sounds intriguing. the latest toy story, number four. my problem in advance was that the original trilogy were perfect and the end of the third one is like the end of winnie the pooh when christopher robin says goodbye. a trilogy is never enough for hollywood! suddenly toy story 4 and i thought, really? i went in with a heavy heart and thought we were retreading a certain amount of ground. the child goes to kindergarten and the toys are left in the cupboard but things pick up when the young child makes a new friend, literally makes a toy

out of a spork and pipe cleaners which then becomes animated but thinks it is trash and there is an existential question, is it a toy or trash? then we meet up with an old acquaintance and suddenly the drama goes off into a whole different area and suddenly it found its feet again. i think what's interesting about toy story 4, nobody was more trepidatious about it than me, was once it got going it had me laughing and crying like the first three but also of all the toy story films, this is the one that's actually about the toys. the toy story mythology is about children and parents and separation anxiety. this sounds pretentious, but it was closer to the kind of concerns of steven spielberg's ai in which the robot child wonders whether or not it is a real boy, the pinocchio story. i thought it was original and unexpected, there were a good 20 minutes at the beginning when i thought it was retreading old ground but once it got going,

i was back there and pixar cast their spell again. it's really funny and very moving and i laughed and i cried. i admit by the end, we did need another one. i really thought we didn't. i was wrong to be trepidatious. i don't think i've used that word before! i've probably made it up! if you have, it is now in the dictionary. the flood is about an immigration officer who gets a high—profile asylum case. this is a topical story with refugees and asylum seekers. lena headey is an immigration officer who has a reputation for being hard—nosed, she's heard lots and lots of stories but she is unmoved by them and what her superiors like about her is she is not sentimental, she is basically the person who will deal with things in an unemotional and rather callous way. here's a clip. if you passed through any other

countries prior to your arrival, why did you not apply for asylum there? i don't know. when did you arrive in europe? i don't know. it was dark. let me help you out. where did you arrive in europe? greece. she seems to be very cold and then what happens is she gets presented with a case and she starts doing the same thing with him, she is told to process it quickly, but she starts to hear his story and then we start to see his story

of his journey and the trauma of his journey in flashback and we start to learn things about her that she has troubles in her own life, that she's getting divorced, is separated from her child and has a drinking problem. she starts to see the story from the other side, she starts to feel empathy because up until this point she has been trying to avoid it. it reminded me of a film from 1990 called journey of hope. the subject matter is kind of different but the aim of the story was to make you see what the journey looks like from the other side and i think this actually manages to do that, occasionally the drama is a little too on the nose and contrived with how itjuggles its mirroring situations, but i found myself very gripped by the performances, they are terrific and it's got a lot of heart and it's made with real commitment. i think it's also very technically well made,

the way in which the music is used to distinguish flashbacks from stuff we are seeing in the present day, the way you can feel the two worlds are seeping into each other, i thought it was very intriguing and very moving. it reminds me of up in the air with george clooney where he flies around the united states sacking people and suddenly starts to feel empathy for the people he is a sacking. best out at the moment? dirty god. i know it is playing in a small number of cinemas but it's a terrific movie about a woman who survived an acid attack and rebuild her life and it has a star making performance by vicki knight. in ten years' time, vicki knight will be part of the furniture as far as acting is concerned. we will all know she is a very versatile actor. this is where it began. she is astonishing, she is a real star in the making. you heard it here first. best dvd? the kid who would be king.

it reminded me of a children's film foundation movie which we used to get in the 19705, but with harry potter special effects. a modern day kid finds king arthur's sword. he has to get his enemies and bullies to reunite. i thought it was really enjoyable. it didn't do well in the cinema, i think it should have done better and i hope it will find a dvd audience. it's really charming and its message is, you know, we've all got to just pull together and work together and the young people are the future and we have faith in them. it's wonderful, it's a film with its heart is really in the right place. not a bad message to end on! mark, thank you very much indeed. that's it for this week. thank you for watching.

good evening, i think some of us will feel the first for a proper beach weather although some did get out there today for a pause in the sunshine. mostly to stay dry but over the next few days if you will be sloppy blue skies with fairly stormy once and then they can come with a risk of flash flooding too. but bear with her because later in the week the sunshine will be back more widely in the downside for some of you will be the fact that it will turn increasingly hot and humid. not just by day but by night as well. this area of low pressure will start to bring a change to something stormy and high pressure bringing a sunshine store with most of us to begin with, but more cloud and some good sunny spells. sunshine turning hazy for the west turning across many southern and western areas as rain develops across southwest england and in the afternoon through prince of wales a nice shower across

the highlands and most will stay dry, still with sunny spells in the north and east in temperatures mid—teens in scotland and northern ireland and 20s in the southeast corner and already starting to feel much more muggy. that more humid air could result in severe storms as we finish tomorrow evening into tomorrow night. wells from the been lifted to northern england resources to begin with and will track north. rainfall amounts can vary quite widely, but to the worst of those and there's a risk of some flooding may be some travel descriptions to ta ke may be some travel descriptions to take us in a monday. if you start the rush hour some of the heaviest rain will be easter in scotland. they may just rain will be easter in scotland. they mayjust ease off a little bit further north but as the morning crowd elsewhere breaks up such a come through in temperatures left it's past the midlands and the england to see another bout of severe storms drifting into southern parts of scotland. some just left a bit in scotland as we lose the east brees but surely for the north and a humid day in the south. that humid airwill humid day in the south. that humid air will track its way northwards as we go through monday night into

tuesday, clearing away the first batch of storms bringing in more to the constant and particularly through central and eastern england. keeping an eye in the forecast. or tuesday itself looking like one or two left around through daytime hours and sunny spells breaking through the cloud look at that, temperatures through parts of scotla nd temperatures through parts of scotland in the 20s by the stage. there will feel quite humid in the fresh of you as we go through wednesday, this ridge of high pressure topples in and eastern areas and high—pressure just for the east and later in the week will tap into near record—breaking heat and parts of western europe and for us the 20s to low 30s is certainly possible.
