good morning. welcome to breakfast, with dan walker and sally nugent. our headlines today: facing the death penalty, a 21—year—old man is charged over the el paso shooting that left 20 people dead. a six—year—old boy remains critically ill after he was thrown from the tenth floor of the tate modern. a teenager is in custody. emergency services battling to stop the collapse of a dam in derbyshire say it will take another two days to bring the water down to a safe level. the cost of extreme weather, from heatwaves to flooding in less than a week. how do insurers deal with unpredictable weather, and what could it cost us?

england's cricketers have a battle on their hands. yet another stunning century from australia's steve smith leaves the hosts 385 runs behind in the first ashes test. good morning. it is another day of sunshine and showers, some of which will be heavy and thundery, particularly so across scotland and northern ireland. and that sets us up northern ireland. and that sets us upfor northern ireland. and that sets us up for this week. i will have more later. it is monday 5 august. our top story: president trump has said hate has no place in the united states, after 29 people were killed in two mass shootings in texas and ohio. but he has been accused of encouraging extremism because of his speeches around migration. a 21—year—old man has been charged with capital murder following the el paso shooting, which means he could now face the death penalty. peter bowes has more. two mass shootings in one weekend. america is once again struggling

with its response to gun violence. in el paso, a predominantly hispanic city on the texas border with mexico, 20 people were murdered when a gunman opened fire at a shopping mall. the suspect, 21—year—old patrick crusius, is in custody. he is believed to have posted an online document calling the attack a response to the "hispanic invasion of texas." officials say the attack on saturday shoppers is being viewed as domestic terrorism, and the authorities are considering bringing hate crime charges. we are treating it as a domestic terrorism case, and we're going to do what we do to terrorists in this country — deliver swift and certain justice. in dayton ohio, nine people died when a student fired into a crowd outside a busy bar in the early hours of sunday. he was shot dead by police, who were on the scene within seconds. the gunman, whose motives are not

known, has been named as 24—year—old connor betts. his 22—year—old sister, meghan, is among those who died. assault—style weapons were used in both attacks. political reaction to the shootings has been swift. several senior democrats blamed president trump, in part because of the angry rhetoric he has used in the debate over immigration, and in clashes with ethnic—minority members of congress. as the president left the newjersey golf club where he spent the weekend, he praised the response of law enforcement officials in el paso and dayton, and he promised action to stop mass shootings. hate has no place in our country, and we will take care of it. # stand by me... mr trump said he will make another statement on monday, but he gave no clue about how he would address the decades—old problem of gun violence.

a six—year—old boy is in a critical condition after being thrown from a tenth—floor balcony at the tate modern art gallery in london. police say a 17—year—old boy has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. let's get more on this from our reporter michael cowan, who is at the tate modern for us. what do we know so far, michael? imean, the i mean, the details are quite scant this morning, but we do know a little bit more, and in the last few moments we have been told that that boy who was thrown from the 10th floor of the tate modern and landed on the fifth floor ceiling, he was ina on the fifth floor ceiling, he was in a critical condition. he is still ina in a critical condition. he is still in a critical condition. he is still in a critical condition, but that condition is now stable, so it is much better news on that six—year—old boy this morning. again, as to what we do know, a six—year—old boy was thrown from the 10th floor of the building you can see behind me. now, that was the recent addition to the tate modern, it opened in 2016, and it has a 10th floor viewing platform. eyewitnesses say that the boy was thrown over

that and onto the fifth floor ceiling of the tate now, you've got to remember it is an incredibly busy time for the tate at the moment. it is the uk's busiest tourist attraction, it hosted 5.9 million visitors. the first day in august, the summer holiday has lots of tourists, it is packed. it is very distressing for many to see this happen to such a small child. it is every pa rent‘s worst happen to such a small child. it is every parent's worst nightmare, and asi every parent's worst nightmare, and as i say, that 17—year—old boy was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, and he remains in police custody this morning. thank you very much indeed. 20 hospitals in england stand to benefit from a pledge by the prime minister to spend an extra £850 million on nhs building projects. it comes after borisjohnson promised an overall cash boost for the nhs of £1.8 billion. there will be plans to invest in medical equipment and a new attempt to end the dispute about doctors' pensions. labour said it fell significantly

short of the amount needed. the emergency services battling to stop a dam collapsing in derbyshire say at least two more days of pumping are needed to get the water to a safe level. more than 1,500 people have been evacuated from whaley bridge. our reporter sam fenwick is there this morning. good morning to you, sam. give us an update on the situation with the dam and the residents. we understand some have gone back to their homes and are refusing to leave. daly there was a residence' meeting last night at 5pm, when the emergency services updated everyone on what was going on. so they told them that they have reduced the water level in they have reduced the water level in the reservoir significantly. it is about 65% capacity now but it needs tojump to about about 65% capacity now but it needs to jump to about 25% before people will be allowed to go home. here is what some of the people said after

that meeting. it's very, very impressive. i think the way it has been dealt with is really exemplary. very grateful. you want to hug them all and say thank you. the only important thing is when can i go home, because i am having to stay with my niece. it'sjust a case of when cani with my niece. it'sjust a case of when can i go home? at least we are safe. that's the main thing, isn't it? two we just want to get back to normal, but obviously if we are in danger we can't go back. the police officer explained our safety is their priority. you know, no—one is going to go back to somewhere that is still potentially dangerous. they can't do anymore, and i think the country should be of them. people we re country should be of them. people were allowed to go back to their homes on saturday for 15 minutes to collect essential things and maybe collect essential things and maybe collect some pets. now some people, as you say, stayed. about 30 people stayed in their homes. now, despite

the police going to try to persuade them to come out, they have stayed there. the police told them that they had seconds, not minutes, to vacate their homes should anything happen with the dam behind me. and we will be speaking to a number of experts later to find out exactly how things are going on with that operation to try and shore it up down there. a 15—year—old girl from the uk has gone missing while on holiday in malaysia. nora quoirin, who has learning difficulties, arrived in the town of seremban with her family on saturday for a two—week trip of a lifetime. when her parents awoke on sunday morning, they found her missing and the window of her hotel room open. a charity the lucy blackman trust says it has been told by local police that her disappearance is being treated as an abduction. a planned strike at heathrow airport today has been called off to allow for further talks about pay. if there is no agreement, there could still be a walkout tomorrow. more than 150 flights have already been cancelled. passengers are being advised

to check with their airlines. we arejust back we are just back from the airport, aren't we? not together, obviously. we have just gone aren't we? not together, obviously. we havejust gone back aren't we? not together, obviously. we have just gone back for our holidays. one person has taken a little break, but not for the sort of holiday we are on. normally sitting here, louise. it is considered to be one of the world's ultimate triathlons. spanning 140 miles in distance, the norseman is a challenge for any athlete. it is not a holiday, is it, really? and joining this year's competitors was our very own louise. she completed a 3.8 km swim, followed by a 180 km cycle, and then finished with a full marathon. bizarrely, she is coming back tomorrow to tell us all about it. she needs a week off. look at that, it is unbelievable. and a little

jumped over the line, as well. that is amazing. i have no idea how she does that. having said that, i did have a particularly arduous game of tennis while i was on holiday, two sets in the heat of croatia. managed to see off the eight—year—old, so a win for me. the other thing which has been glaringly obvious this weekend is that steve smith is annoyingly good at cricket. not if you are an australian fan, mind you. it doesn't feel that long ago when we saw him crying in that press conference after the ball tempering scandal, and a lot of the fans obviously haven't forgotten about that either. they have been doing throughout, he has silenced them in the last few days. another century for steve smith, so england have a huge battle in their hands —— booing.

england face an enormous run chase if they are to win the first ashes test at edgbaston. they will need to reach 398 on the final day to beat australia, who piled on the runs on day four. just like the first innings, it was steve smith who was england's downfall. he added another century to the aussies' total in the second. england will resume this morning on the final day on 13 without loss. manchester city have won the community shield, almost like a curtain—raiser to the new premier league season. they needed a penalty shootout to beat champions league holders, liverpool, after a 1—1 draw in normal time. it is the second season in a row city have won it. there was no home winner at golf‘s british open, but there was a brilliant day for japan's hinako shibuno at woburn. the 20—year won her first major title on the final hole of the week. it was the first tournament she had played outside her home country. and lewis hamilton can relax on his summer holidays after extending his lead in the formula one drivers' championship to 62 points. he overtook the red bull pole sitter, max verstappen, with just three laps to go to win

the hungarian grand prix. and off he goes on his holidays. he is just off and off he goes on his holidays. he isjust off on and off he goes on his holidays. he is just off on his holidays, and off he goes on his holidays. he isjust off on his holidays, and and off he goes on his holidays. he is just off on his holidays, and you two are just back. do you think he is going to do a marathon?“ two are just back. do you think he is going to do a marathon? if anyone is going to do a marathon? if anyone is going to do a marathon? if anyone is going to do it, it might be lewis. they have to be fit to fit into those tiny cars. have you ever tried to sit in one? were you here on that day that we had the delorean from back to —— back to the future? and i did sit next to the flux capacitor, which was a highlight of my life.

let's take a look at today's papers. several of the front pages cover the mass shootings that took place in the us over the weekend. the guardian says president donald trump faced a barrage of criticism from people making a link between his anti—immigrant rhetoric and the texas shooter's manifesto. a photo of two girls burning candles for the victims of the shooting in el paso features on the front page of the daily telegraph. its lead story, however, focuses on criticism of "rip—off" pension fees, which the paper says could wipe out people's savings. "horror at the tate" is the headline on the daily mail's front page, which features the story of a teenager arrested for attempted murder after allegedly throwing a six—year—old boy from the 10th floor of the london art gallery. the photo is of emma thynn, the viscountess weymouth, who will be taking part in strictly. we will soon know exactly what to call her. she asks somebody to look

after the elephants. and finally, the times says borisjohnson plans a "people versus pa rliament" election if remainer mps try to topple his government. the image is of french inventor franky zapata, who has made the first successful channel crossing on a jet—powered flyboard. we will talk to him just after 8am this morning. it is quite an achievement, that. that would rank somewhere up with that delorean, don't you think? it is a bit martin mcfly. biff would love that. that is his second attempt, do you know?m looks so otherworldly, doesn't it? it really happened. we dropped the s—bomb, strictly. we haven't had a chance to discuss the fact that mike busheu chance to discuss the fact that mike bushell will be taking part. he will be horrendous but brilliant. he does

fa ncy be horrendous but brilliant. he does fancy footwork, considering all the sports he does. have you seen him dance? sports he does. have you seen him dance ? the man sports he does. have you seen him dance? the man has got some moves. that's what i mean. the last time i saw him shift was at louise's birthday party. he has got some outrageous shapes to throw, but he is one of those people you love to have at parties because there are absolutely no inhibitions about him, and there is no embarrassment about where his arms and his legs go. he will be so good on that programme. where his arms and his legs go. he will be so good on that programmelj think will be so good on that programme.” think he is going to be brilliant, i can exclusively reveal he has been practising a jive and it is quite good. just learning to remember steps, because that must be so scary. has he been in secret training for ten years? he will be great to watch.

i thought this might tickle you. this is in the times. french ministers have had a private word over the rising use of english in france. apparently, there is a law from 1994 where all companies are forced to offer french translations of foreign language words or slogans used in advertising but the french are very upset that all the young french people who are trying to be trendy, they use things like diy, bff, love rather than l'amour. trendy, they use things like diy, bff, love ratherthan l'amour. it's upsetting them. the paris olympic slogan is "made for sharing". it sounds like a pizza. emblazoned all over the eiffel tower. sounds like a pizza. emblazoned all overthe eiffeltower. i'm sounds like a pizza. emblazoned all over the eiffel tower. i'm not surprised they are upset. i'm amazed thatis surprised they are upset. i'm amazed that is not in french. they like you to have a go at it. although they do

make you feel embarrassed if you're not very good. every time you try to order ina not very good. every time you try to order in a restaurant, they pretend they don't understand. until you talk to them in english. ijust want the pistes are —— pizza. i love this story about hina ko the pistes are —— pizza. i love this story about hinako shibuno winning. she loves to giggle and laugh. she said she was going to spend her prize money on sweets. it's a bit different over there. they like squid and fish. she likes to smile and laugh and the manager dressed up for her, one day as a samurai and another day with a plastic sword and another day with a plastic sword and a clown's base. a real character. it's the first time see —— she's beenin it's the first time see —— she's been ina it's the first time see —— she's been in a major outside her own country. a fairy tale. very quickly, this is 33—year—old gb para climber

jesse dufton, looking for some assistance with his climbing. he needs a dog. he's got a blindfold on as well. he says basically, having a blindfold on doesn't make the vertigo any better but is looking for a guide dog to assist him. not a labrador, he wants a husky. logistically, how does that work? a very brave dog. very quickly, booming summer for butterflied. very brave dog. very quickly, booming summerfor butterflied. more common blues than ever before because of the weather. and how far can you throw a bag of frozen peas? quite a long way. bubbling up that far. it sort of collapses around your hand. if you gave it some real welly. we should ask mike bushell. there is an annual p throwing competition in lewis which started

when a barmaid at this pub in lewis, the peas are defrosted and she threw them down the street and ever since then, they have had a pea throwing competition. a lot of people who took part in the competition earlier had frozen peas so there were complaints but the world record is 44 metres which is huge but this year it was won with 32.37 by a rather burly south african. well done to him. that's warm things up a little bit. carol has this morning's weather. good morning. happy birthday to you as well. thank you. thank you for remembering. she's been trying to keep that quiet. no, i've been telling everyone. there is not a chance of that this morning, that's for sure. but it's not a particularly cold start to the day. some of us are starting at 17 or 18. yesterday, while we had a lot of thunderstorms around, in the last 24

hours, over 13,000 were recorded across the uk. and last evening, yesterday evening, just south of darlington, 42 millimetres of rain fell in just darlington, 42 millimetres of rain fell injust one darlington, 42 millimetres of rain fell in just one hour. today, darlington, 42 millimetres of rain fell injust one hour. today, the forecast is a mixture of sunshine and showers. the heaviest showers through the day will be across scotla nd through the day will be across scotland and northern ireland. it's a chance and the odd rumble of thunder as well. we do have a band of patchy, showery rain moving from the west to the east which will eventually clear and another band of rain pushing northwards across scotland. a few showers coming in behind that. as we head into the afternoon, a band of rain ensconced into the northern isles but that will sparkle some homegrown showers. not much of a breeze. they were to move around very quickly. in england and wales, he was showers. a bit more sunshine but the showers we do

see will tend to move quite quickly. especially in the south. temperature—wise, 16 in the north two highs of 25 as we sweep down towards the south—east. heading on into the evening and overnight, we start off in a largely dry note. by the end of the night, we've got the next batch coming in from the west. some of those will be heavy across northern ireland. across parts of scotland, wales and south—west england and here it will still be breezy. as we go through the course of tomorrow, a lot of dry weather to start the day. shah was already in the west will be progressively moving eastwards. they are going to be hit and miss but in the north, in scotla nd be hit and miss but in the north, in scotland and northern ireland in northern england, if you catch one, because there is not going to be much of a breeze, it will be slow—moving whereas in the south, again, quitea slow—moving whereas in the south, again, quite a breezy day ahead. those showers will move through quite quickly and in between them all, bright spells and sunshine.

wednesday sees a bit more. we are looking at some showers, particularly across scotland and northern england. it could fall in areas where we don't want to see any more rain. dry conditions as well. again, patchy cloud is a go through the course of the day. the cloud will thicken. it will bring in some rain and on thursday, in the sunshine, temperatures up to 24. thank you very much indeed. 24, your rage, sale. -- sal. if only. 6:22am. let's return to one of our main stories now. 1,500 residents in the derbyshire town of whaley bridge have spent a fourth

night away from their homes. they were evacuated on thursday night after heavy rain damaged a dam above the town. over the weekend, a small number of families were allowed back forjust 15 minutes to pick up vital belongings. brea kfast‘s sam fenwick is there for us this morning. i've been told its i've been told it'sjust i've been told its just started to spit a little bit. how are conditions? what other concerns about the state of the dam today? it's a little more than spitting. the heavens have just opened it's a little more than spitting. the heavens havejust opened upon us. it's not a problem because they've managed to get rid of so much water out of the reservoir that a bit of rain like this isn't going to cause a problem. capacity in the reservoir is about 65% of the moment, the need to get it down to 25% before people will be allowed to go home. they brought in his big pumps, ten of them here. these pumps can pump 7000 litres of water a minute out of the reservoir and that's had a big impact on the

levels of water in the reservoir itself but people here are feeling anxious. yesterday i spent the day meeting people, finding out how they are feeling. this weekend, kylie is getting married. every thing was going to plan until her and her fiance were evacuated. on saturday, they were allowed to go back home to gather some of their belongings. the siren started, we got into the car and drive, but had to rescue some animals, a lot of stuff because we're getting married next saturday for the wedding, so the suits, cetera, those kind of things, all the things of the table, the wedding dress. it was a little bit chaotic. it was the most frantic 15 minutes of my life. have you got everything you need? no, no, we've got lots of things still there. the emergency services are working around the clock to make sure carly gets to the church on time. it's been a massive

logistical task putting in place all the pipes and hoses. as you can see, they were normal around here down they were normal around here down the side. you consider waterfinally being discharged out there. and it's discharging it quite irate. we are losing, all being well, about 100 millimetres every hour. we are making some significant progress on this sign hoping the end is going to come sooner rather than later. but the uncertainty is starting to take its toll. it's heartbreaking because when you look at the village, it's empty. when we open the door, it's empty. when we open the door, it's empty. our beautiful flowers empty. when we open the door, it's empty. our beautifulflowers in empty. when we open the door, it's empty. our beautiful flowers in a vase, they are burnt. the last time casa de pizza was open was on thursday and since then, they have lost hundreds of pounds.” thursday and since then, they have lost hundreds of pounds. ijust cried every time but it doesn't help, you just have to move on. hundreds of thousands of litres of water have already been pumped out of the reservoir on the crew zero hoping that people will be able to

return home soon. we've got pumps working on this side and on the opposite side now so it is working. the water levels are lowering. that will stay away or it will be less than we had forecast. as long as we can pump out more than comes in, we are moving in the right direction, hopefully. for carly and dan, that can't come soon enough. there is plenty of room, plenty of room but it's just that everyone is cramped, eve ryo ne it's just that everyone is cramped, everyone is getting a bit fidgety because we can't get anywhere, all the roads are closed, nobody can sort of move, go to see anybody else sort of move, go to see anybody else so nobody can really do anything.” think we can get out but once we get out, they won't let us back him. so there was a meeting last night at

the local school, which is like a muster station. they were told they will probably be able to go back in a few more days. they've got to wait till the water drops a little bit more. that will be music to people living in whaley bridge's years because they will be desperate to get home. it makes you think, that couple getting married, if you had 15 minutes, what would you take? non— digital photographs, sentimental things. golf clubs? non— digital photographs, sentimentalthings. golf clubs? we know that's what yours would be. the news, travel, and weather where you are within the national headlines. hello, iam hello, i am asad ahmad. a teenager has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a six—year—old boy was thrown from the viewing platform at the tate modern. the boys in

when asked about gun regulations, the president said perhaps more has to be done to prevent shootings, but stopped short of making any commitments. a 21—year—old man has been charged with capital murder following the el paso shooting, which means he could now face the death penalty. a six—year—old boy is in a critical condition after being thrown from a tenth—floor balcony at the tate modern art gallery in london. a teenager has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. police say there is nothing to suggest that the 17—year—old suspect knew the child. a 15—year—old girl from the uk has gone missing while on holiday in malaysia. nora quoirin, who has learning difficulties, arrived in the town of seremban with her family on saturday for a two—week trip of a lifetime. when her parents awoke on sunday morning, they found her missing and the window of her hotel room open. a charity the lucy blackman trust says it has been told by local police that her disappearance

is being treated as an abduction. and it has had a lot of publicity on social media. and she has a joint irish and swedish passport. they have been to the british consulate but she is not able to be helped because he is not a british citizen. 20 hospitals in england stand to benefit from a pledge by the prime minister to spend an extra £850 million on nhs building projects. it comes after borisjohnson promised an overall cash boost for the nhs of £1.8 billion. there will be new investment in medical equipment and an attempt to end the dispute about doctors' pensions. labour said it fell significantly short of the amount needed. the authorities responsible for a damaged dam in derbyshire believe at least two more days of pumping are needed to get the water to a safe level. more than 1,500 people have been evacuated from whaley bridge.

officers have criticised some residents who have refused to leave, saying they are putting their lives and those of the emergency services at risk. a planned strike at heathrow airport today has been called off to allow for further talks about pay. if there is no agreement, there could still be a walkout tomorrow. more than 150 flights have already been cancelled. passengers are being advised to check with their airlines. mischievous kids have long been using the dirt on the back of cars and vans to draw graffiti, much to the embarrassment of their owners. well, take a look at this example, because one man has taken things to a whole new level. this is impressive, isn't it? white van man rick minns has become something of a local celebrity after mastering the art of van gogh—style graffiti, which has helped him to raise more than £1,000 for charity.

imean, i mean, that is talent, that, isn't it? was that luke skywalker? luke skywalker? if you are watching, former prime minister, apologies on behalf of bbc breakfast. you just confused theresa may with luke. that is an absolute beauty. can we run that again? go on, let's get... can you spot luke skywalker? it makes a big difference from please clean me, or the normal stuff. just for a minute, not that one. is it the next one? jedi knight theresa may. i am

glad we have cleared that up. one? jedi knight theresa may. i am glad we have cleared that upm one? jedi knight theresa may. i am glad we have cleared that up. it is my birthday, leave me alone. do you know what? i woke up this morning immensely positive that england are going to... you are always immensely positive, every single time. they are going to do it. i would love everyone to be as positive as you, but that man, steve smith, has been causing a world of pain for england. when he came out initially to all of those boos on the first day, you would imagine there is a lot of pressure, and having to come to somewhere like edgbaston and performed, and my goodness did he do it. two centuries after that 144 on his first innings. it means england have a pretty big hill to climb.

england will need a massive final innings to win the first ashes test at edgbaston. australia set them a target of 398 on day four, and that man, steve smith, had a lot to do with it. joe wilson reports. in sport, a precious few seem to live in a different world, to move at their own speed and dictate the pace — true vips. steve smith is one. he arrived at edgbaston at 9:45am, ready to bat all day. england had to try something. something? well, that's different. a surprise at least. options were limited with anderson injured. jofra archer was only a substitute fielder. he couldn't bowl — well, not until the next test. smith was still doing his thing. he bats like nobody else — great fun, unless of course you are the bowler. plenty more where that came from. how is your patience — wilting? a word from stokes, a reply from smith. even edgbaston's enthusiasts at times struggled. with this shot, smith got to 100,

his second of the match. and with every beaming minute, he extended australia's lead. his personal total — 142. england's captain needs dominic knows one thing already. he needs a new theory for steve smith. well, matthew wade took the opportunity to find his form. he made 100 as well. remember when australia were on the ropes in this test? well, it seems like a very different ashes now. even australia's tail—enders were dispatching england's weary bowlers, as australia's lead grew. they invited england to bat again, 397 ahead. england's opening batsmen began their second innings and survived. plenty more of this to come. australia have got themselves into a winning position, and they knew who to thank. cheers, steve. so, after spending 12

months away from the game, steve smith's return to cricket has seen him become just the fifth australian batsman in history to make two centuries in a single ashes test. he says his return to test cricket has been like christmas morning every morning. it's kind of a dream comeback, in a way, to able to score two hundreds in a match, in the first ashes test match, it's something i've never done in any form of cricket before in my life. so it's incredibly special, and special to be able to, i guess, put us in the position that we're in now, going into day five. it wasn't to be for england's charley hull or georgia hall, the defending champion at the women's british open. hull has been playing on her home course of woburn this week, but she fell away from the leaders on the final day. instead, it went right to the final hole to decide the winner. but, with this brilliant birdie on the 18th, japan's hinako shibuno secured her first major title. remarkably, it is the first tournament the 20—year—old has played outside her home country.

lewis hamilton can relax on his summer holidays after extending his lead in the formula one drivers' championship to 62 points. he over took the red bull of pole sitter max verstappen with just three laps to go to win the hungarian grand prix. the sport now takes a four—week break, with nine races left when they return at the end of the month. daly i am really grateful for the day, and really for the team for continuing to believe in me and continuing to believe in me and continuing to believe in me and continuing to push and to be able to... fora continuing to push and to be able to... for a race continuing to push and to be able to... fora race to continuing to push and to be able to... for a race to be able to push like that, and it went all the way. well, hamilton has now moved to 81 carer race wins, ten behind michael schumacher‘s all—time f1 record. but could schumacher‘s son be on the way to catching up with the briton? mick schumacher won his first title in formula two in budapest. many think he is on the way to greatness and could make the step up to f1 soon.

the richest prize in one—day cycling, the ridelondon event, was won by italy's elia viviani. the 169 km race started out in central london, before heading into the countryside, and finishing on the mall in front of buckingham palace. viviani powered through in a bunch sprint finish to take the 100,000 euro prize. manchester city won the season's curtain—raiser, the community shield at wembley, with a penalty shootout win over liverpool. raheem sterling had put city ahead with his first goal against his former club, but with 13 minutes left, joel matip got liverpool's equaliser. that sent the game straight to penalties, where ilkay gundogan scored the crucial kick. city won this trophy last season, too, and then went on to win the premier league and fa cup titles. rangers are looking to stop celtic winning a ninth straight scottish premiership title this season, but steven gerrard's side have made the best possible start. they beat kilmarnock 2—1 thanks to this late winner from connor goldson, but police will investigate

these resulting celebrations. fans invaded the pitch, and a roof covering disabled rangers fans caved in. elsewhere yesterday, aberdeen were also winners against hearts. well, the first weekend of the domestic football season gave many clubs a chance to see their new additions over the summer, and there was a very special one at wigan athletic. say hello to their new mascot, crusty the pie. he was designed by local primary school children because, they say, everyone in wigan loves pies. he got his first outing in his side's 3—2 win over cardiff city on saturday. he is... he is not the only pastry to bea he is... he is not the only pastry to be a mascot. there is another tea m to be a mascot. there is another team who has a pastry as a mascot. can you name them? it is baxter the

bridie. they are having a war on twitter, between the two. two mass shootings in the space of 24 hours. the latest attacks in texas and ohio have left 29 people dead and the united states shaken. president donald trump says there can be no place for hate in the us, but leading democrats have accused him of fuelling bigotry. we are joined now from texas by former white house advisor oliver mcgee, and by ed scruggs, who is the director of texas gun sense, a group that campaigns against gun violence. oliver, if i could come to you first, your reaction to what has happened over the last few hours? well, this is a horrific tragedy that has taken place in america.

thank you for having me this morning, sally. my condolences go out to the families and friends of the victims, and also for the first responders who stepped up very, very heroically and saved many lives. but more importantly, i would like to open that before 2015, we had these mass shootings about every 200 days. but after 2015 these are occurring about 64 days, every 64 days. so all presidents from clinton to obama to trump are really stunned by this activity, and more importantly, right now we know very little information right now. so i think right now the thing that i would like to say to the public is caution, because these mass shootings are very mysterious stories. we still don't know the causes of them, they are associated with all kinds of things, associated with all kinds of things, associated with depression, mental illness, but also we have got manifestoes that we are trying to analyse here, and we don't want to turn mass murderers

into heroes, but we do want to find out the causes of the societal impact of violence. ed scruggs, what is your reaction to what oliver has just said there, that the implication is that he is saying it is not just donald implication is that he is saying it is notjust donald trump who has had this problem, you know, this is a problem that has been going on for many, problem that has been going on for any problem that has been going on for many, many years. your reaction to that? well, that in principle is true. it has been a problem in the united states for many years. i think at least the last 20 years. but as he rightfully noted, we have seen an uptick in frequency. but they have become increasingly more disturbing ever since the shooting at sandy hook elementary school, where 20 children were killed. but now what we have seen in the last year is an uptick in very violent incidents from white males, usually

young white males, and there has been an outright flavour of white nationalism involved. the el paso shooting, it was mentioned, there is a manifesto out there. the fbi says there are indications it is linked to the shooter, and i think it is going to be determined that it is linked to the shooter. it is pretty much linked to him. the shooting in california last week had links to white nationalism. we had the shooting in pittsburgh last year, in a synagogue, definitely linked to white nationalism. it is a major problem in the united states. we have got to get control of it. if we don't get control of it, things are getting out of hand quickly. we have a very large problem with racial tensions and division in the

country, and this is definitely not helping. oliver, what's your suggestion to stop this happening? we really had about 22,000 deaths that are associated with suicide and also about 11,000 deaths that are associated with homicide. about 80% of these are homicides are associated with gang violence which we really need to do something with those environments but at the same time, suicide, 50% of them are done by white males so in answer to your question, we really need to start looking at what is the problem that is going on in the social and technological and economic and political challenges that shape the social fabric of america. we have 300 million guns in america and 350 million americans so we need to look

at what is happening with the gun violence is associated with these deaths and this is exceeding aids, it is exceeding the afghan and iraqi wars, it is exceeding drugs. it exceeding all kinds of forms of terrorism combined. this is a social crisis and the corporate is to get integrated solutions, get politicians to work across the aisle and help the president. i'm sorry to interrupt you, we are about to run out of time. picking up on that point there, this is such a divisive issue. politically, america is very divided now. how do you approach tackling this in such divided times? it's very difficult. leadership from the president would be crucial. hopefully he is going to say more

about it but we have to, before we can tackle this problem on every level, we have to admit, both sides has to admit that guns play a role in gun violence. currently the republican majority in congress and president trump has been almost impossible to get to admit. i will talk about mental health and gangs and everything else but they won't talk about the astronomical number of guns in the country in the easy availability of these assault style weapons which as we have seen this weekend to tremendous damage to communities and people. we have a suicide problem and a crime problem but these maps —— mass shootings are causing damage to the american psyche and our sense of security. we have to become to the table and speak honestly that america may have a mental health problem, it may have a mental health problem, it may have a poverty problem but it has a gun problem. we have to admit that first

and thenl problem. we have to admit that first and then i think the conversation will come after that. thank you both very much for your time. it's a debate that continues to rage and lettuce know what you think about that. here's carol with a look at this morning's weather. she has a rainbow for us. good morning. today's weather once again is one of sunshine and showers. some of the showers will be having bunbury. scotland and northern ireland. this morning, we have another band of showery rain moving across england and wales. leaving brightest guys behind. a band of rain across scotland pushing northwards as we go through the course of the day. as tempers across scotla nd course of the day. as tempers across scotland and northern ireland rise, that will spark off heavy inventory showers. we could see some large

rainfall totals. for england and wales, a lot of dry weather and sunshine. a few showers in the west but it's easier in england and wales, especially in the south so those showers will blow along quite quickly. temperatures, 16 in the north a lot of dry weather to start with. many of the showers fading but through the night, we will see the next batch coming in. western england and also wales. a cooler night than the one just gone. looking at falling to about 15 tonight. tomorrow, a lot of dry weather, showers and the west, started to push steadily eastwards. again, in the northern half the country, slow—moving, not much of a wind around but it's breezy in the south. temperatures, 15—23. down just a notch. it's a bit of an

action replay in the sense that for scotla nd action replay in the sense that for scotland and northern ireland, for northern england and wales, we will see some more showers, in areas that we also don't want to see. some of those will also be heavy in bunbury. if you catch a shower, it will rattle through more quickly. in southern england and south wales. by the time we get a thursday, things settled down a touch. more of us will have dry conditions. more of us will have dry conditions. more of us will see sunshine, patchy cloud developing through the course of the day. also north—east england. but by the end of the day, we will start to see the class they can across south—west england and that heralds the arrival of our next weather front which will rain overnight thursday to friday.

we're looking at the impact of extreme weather this morning , victoria's been taking a look at what the cost could be for our insurance. good morning. a heatwave, flooding, and now a town evacuated because the dam above it is at risk of breaking. all in the space of just a few weeks. extreme weather can cause lots of disruption, and it's often insurers that pick up the bill. so how can they cope if the weather remains so unpredictable? james dalton from the association of british insurersjoins me from our london newsroom. this freak weather events, they seem certainly as far as i'm concerned to be happening more often. how much of an increase have you actually been seeing over the recent years? as an industry we have been responding to an increased number of extreme weather events, whether that is the

east from the east last year of the heatwave we experienced last summer which saw dramatic increase in the number of subsidence claims. the recent flooding we've seen is another one of these types of events that insurers are used to responding to. why the increase? are you as insurers able to say its climate change for sure. all of the indications from the scientific community global temperatures are increasing and climate change is leading to significantly divergent weather patterns. ourjob as an industry is to respond to that. our customers with the heart of what we do. unfortunately, when these sorts of events happen, people's homes, businesses and livelihoods are significantly affected. it helps

people get their lives back on track as soon as possible. if we are saying it is climate change, what does that mean for your business. it sounds like a very expensive time to be an insurer. insurers have got a range of regulatory responsibilities across the world. we invest significantly to understand how weather is changing, what the weather is changing, what the weather patterns are doing across the globe. and we invest in industry and preventing the worst happening so as an industry, we've been working closely with the government to ensure that flood defences are built and to ensure that flood defences are builtand maintained, to ensure that flood defences are built and maintained, that the planning system thinks carefully about where new build houses and businesses are built so that we adapt the way that we build and we plan our societies with these extreme weather events. but we know the vast majority of people aren't living in new build homes, they are

living in new build homes, they are living in new build homes, they are living in houses that have been there for ten years, 20 years, 100 yea rs. there for ten years, 20 years, 100 years. you are mentioning that scheme you've done with the government to make insurance more readily available for people living in flood risk areas. how does it work and will it help the people at whaley bridge. we set up flood re with the government back in 2016. you by your insurance in the normal way and the insurer decides if the flood risk element your property faces goes into the separate scheme in150,000 faces goes into the separate scheme in 150,000 properties across the uk have now been seeded into the flood re scheme. what it means from a consumer perspective is that those at the most significant flood risk have access to affordable flood insurance which they previously wouldn't have had. people are getting the protection they need.- what cost. our insurance premiums

going to go up? it's a highly competitive market. insurers are making decisions as to the extent they manage the flood risk element. flood risk is a risk, there are lots of other risk that insurers are dealing with but at the end of the day, the average consumer premium for home insurance has been relatively stable in recent years. james dalton, thank you very much. plenty more on whaley bridge later. we will be speaking to matt hancock about nhs funding shortly but the news, travel, and weather wherever you are. the headlines in a few minutes. hello, i'm asad ahmad. a teenager has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after a 6—year—old boy was thrown from the viewing platform at the tate modern. london air ambulance were called

with its response to gun violence. in el paso, a predominantly hispanic city on the texas border with mexico, 20 people were murdered when a gunman opened fire at a shopping mall. the suspect, 21—year—old patrick crusius, is in custody. he is believed to have posted an online document calling the attack a response to the "hispanic invasion of texas." officials say the attack on saturday shoppers is being viewed as domestic terrorism, and the authorities are considering bringing hate crime charges. we are treating it as a domestic terrorism case, and we're going to do what we do to terrorists in this country — which is deliver swift and certainjustice. in dayton, ohio, nine people died when a student fired into a crowd outside a busy bar in the early hours of sunday. he was shot dead by the police, who were on the scene within seconds. the gunman, whose motives are not known, has been named as 24—year—old connor betts. his 22—year—old sister, meghan,

is among those who died. assault—style weapons were used in both attacks. political reaction to the shootings has been swift. several senior democrats blamed president trump, in part because of the angry rhetoric he has used in the debate over immigration, and in clashes with ethnic—minority members of congress. as the president left the newjersey golf club where he spent the weekend, he praised the response of law enforcement officials in el paso and dayton, and he promised action to stop mass shootings. hate has no place in our country, and we're going to take care of it. # so darling, darling, stand by me... mr trump said he will be making another statement on monday, but he gave no clue about how he would address the decades—old problem of gun violence. a six—year—old boy is in a critical condition after being thrown

from a tenth—floor balcony at the tate modern art gallery in london. police say a 17—year—old boy has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. let's get more on this from our reporter michael cowan, who is at the tate modern for us. michael, this is such a distressing story. what more can you tell us about what happened there? yes, it is an incredibly distressing story, and at this point there is far more that we don't know then we do know, but an update from the metropolitan police, that boy was until this morning in a critical condition, but he is now in a stable but critical condition, so that is better news. what we do know is that a six—year—old boy was thrown from this 10th floor viewing platform behind me. that is the blavatnik building, it was added onto the tate in 2015, so it is fairly new and it has a viewing platform where you can see views of the city. we know the boy was thrown off their and landed on the fifth roof of the main tate

building. that was very distressing, there were a lot of parents with children there yesterday. it is the beginning of the summer holidays, it was the first sunday of august, and the tate had seen record visitor figures, the most visited attraction in the uk, so yesterday was packed. we know that a 17—year—old boy was arrested by police on suspicion of attempted murder, and he remains in police custody this morning. but one thing that was incredibly distressing was onlookers said they heard the milder of the boy shouting thatis heard the milder of the boy shouting that is my son as he fell. a devastating day for lots of people who visited the tate yesterday. thank you very much indeed. the emergency services battling to stop a dam collapsing in derbyshire say at least two more days of pumping are needed to get the water to a safe level. more than 1,500 people have been evacuated from whaley bridge. our reporter sam fenwick is there this morning. we knew it was raining earlier. how

are the efforts going this morning? over the last 24 hours, the level of the reservoir has dropped by 2.5 metres. it has done that because of these pumps here. there are ten of them on this side of the reservoir and a furtherten them on this side of the reservoir and a further ten on the other side of the reservoir, and they are pumping ata of the reservoir, and they are pumping at a rate of 7000 litres a minute, which has significantly dropped the levels of water in the reservoir. yesterday there was a meeting of residents in chapel on the threat, which is —— chapel—en—le—frith. here is what some of the residents said at the meeting. it's very, very impressive. i think the way it's been dealt with is really exemplary. very grateful. you want to hug them all and say thank you. the only important thing is when can i go home? because i'm having to stay

with my niece up in chapel. it'sjust a case of when can i go home? hopefully soon. but at least we're safe. that's the main thing, isn't it? we just want to get back to normal, but obviously if we're in danger, we can't go back. the police officer explained our safety is her priority. and, you know, no—one's going to to let anybody go back to somewhere that's still potentially dangerous. they can't do any more, and i think the country should be proud of them. on saturday, residents were given 15 minutes to go back to their homes. some residents stayed in their homes and didn't come back out. police have been around to those people. they have knocked on doors and tried to persuade them to come out. they haven't, despite the police telling them that they will have seconds to evacuate, not minutes, should this dam reach. —— breach.

a 15—year—old girl from the uk has gone missing while on holiday in malaysia. nora quoirin, who has learning difficulties, arrived in the town of seremban with her family on saturday for a two—week trip of a lifetime. when her parents awoke on sunday morning, they found her missing and the window of her hotel room open. a charity the lucy blackman trust says it has been told by local police that her disappearance is being treated as an abduction. a planned strike at heathrow airport today has been called off to allow for further talks about pay. if there is no agreement, there could still be a walkout tomorrow. more than 150 flights have already been cancelled. passengers are being advised to check with their airlines. what have you been up to the last week or so? busy? i have been on my jollies. louise has been away, she has been quite easy. it is considered to be one of the world's ultimate triathlons.

spanning 140 miles in distance, the norseman is a challenge for any athlete, and joining this year's competitors was our very own louise. she is very speedy. she takes everybody over. she completed a 3.8 km swim, followed by a 180 km cycle, and then finished with a full marathon. and she finishes with a flourish. i think we have a fulfilment of louise taking part in that ludicrous physical exertion over the weekend, and she is back on breakfast tomorrow, for some reason. why would she not be having a lie down for a week? she has been in contact, saying morning, still recovering from that feeling of elation, after jumping offa from that feeling of elation, after jumping off a ferry, beneath snow topped mountains, finishing on a bonfire on a beach. people have been so supportive, and she is an inspiration to an awful lot of people, because he took on triathlon

quite late. she is already thinking about the next challenge. she is not! yes, she is. i think about the next challenge. she is not! yes, she is. ithink we about the next challenge. she is not! yes, she is. i think we need to have a word. and she is back tomorrow. a one—off cash boost of £1.8 billion has been announced for nhs hospitals in england. prime minister borisjohnson said he was determined to deliver the promises of the brexit referendum campaign and increase spending on the health service. but labour says the money isn't enough to reverse years of spending cuts. we are joined now by the health and social care secretary, matt hancock. good morning, mr hancock. thank you for coming on. let's talk about the dosh, first of all. where is that money for the health service coming from? this is new money that has been allocated from the treasury. ultimately all money that is spent on public services comes from taxpayers, and part of myjob is to make sure that that money is well spent. and in the case of this £1.8

billion extra that has been put into the health service, i think these 20 hospital upgrades around the country will be fantastic. i have been working on them for some time, i am delighted that the new prime minister has made the nhs its top domestic priority, domestic priority number one, and put the money from the treasury into the nhs, so that we can have these upgrades. so for instance, if you are watching this in cornwall, you will get a new women's and children's hospital in truro as a result of this announcement, and 20 others around the country. if you are watching this in cornwall, and indeed anywhere else, you might add the sums up, anywhere else, you might add the sums up, as anywhere else, you might add the sums up, as well. it has also been placed by borisjohnson since he became prime minister, £1.1 billion for the police, £3.9 billion that pledge for the trans— pennine transport, a part of hs three, £3.6 billion for town funding projects,

£138 billion for brexit projects, £300 million for growth plans for scotla nd £300 million for growth plans for scotland and wales, and off a lot of money being placed in thrown around. where is all the money for all of this coming from? well, the economy is growing strongly, and ultimately all public services, the long list that you gave, and of course the biggest amongst them, the nhs, they are paid for by having a strong economy. there is a record number of people in work at the moment, that means a record number of people paying income tax. so can i clarify that? a record low number of people who are actually claiming unemployment benefits. you say it is based on a strong economy, so is that based on future predictions for a strong economy, or is that money coming now? yes, the money is now, and the money for the nhs is flowing

in this year. it is immediate. we have got the 20 upgrades where the shuttles can get going —— shovels can get going in the ground. i am going to lincolnshire, where they long overdue need and a&e, and they are getting that funding as a result of today's announcement, and some of that money is going to much smaller upgrades and improvements and maintenance needed in hospitals right across the country. so it is immediate and we are getting going with it. only ten days ago boris johnson became prime minister. he stood on the steps of downing street and he said that we are going to upgrade 20 hospitals, and ten days later here we are, making the commitment to exactly which ones and the projects. so we are making progress, and we are making sure that the nhs is our top priority, as it is the public‘s. that the nhs is our top priority, as it is the public's. i am sure you are aware there are a number of think—tanks saying that £6 billion is needed to try and deal with what you are talking about, the current backlog of just hospital

maintenance. so £1.8 billion, it is a lot of money, but it is not what is needed to actually fund these essential changes to the nhs, essential changes to the nhs, essential maintenance to the nhs. well, it is a lot of money, and it is going to fulfilling that pledge that the prime minister made just ten days ago, when he became pm. but of course, there is a much larger settle m e nt of course, there is a much larger settlement needed for the nhs as a whole. last year we put in an extra £33 billion in cash terms over the next five years for running costs. the rest of the capital budget, as it is called, the budget for buildings and for maintenance, that needs to be settled in a spending review. what we're today is making good on that early commitment of the prime minister, and this list of 20 projects i have been working on for some time, i am absolutely thrilled that they are getting the go—ahead. you know, just down the road from here, in luton, they are getting a

new neonatal intensive care unit. so if you have a baby in luton and it is not very well, you are now going to get the very, very best care available in the world. thanks to the money today. something else which i know you have spoken about before, and we have got a lot of m essa g es before, and we have got a lot of messages about today, on the many occasions we have spoken about it, is the social care crisis. i know borisjohnson has also spoken about this. what has he told you about what money will be available to try and turn it around? he mentioned again when he was prime minister he wanted to solve the social care crisis. that's music to my ears. we are not announcing the plans. something i'm talking to the prime minister about and we are working on. i will be on bbc first unable to answer all your questions.

fundamentally, the problem is, there isa fundamentally, the problem is, there is a great injustice. some people have to sell their homes. and that isn't true. and at the same time, our social care system is unsustainable in terms of its funding. people are living that much longer. announcing 20 new hospital upgrades. thanks forever your comments about nhs funding. it's important to get those points. carl has been talking about under this morning. all sorts of stuff going

on. good morning to you. in the last 24 hours, up to four o'clock this morning, there were over 13,000 lightning strikes across the uk. 42 millimetres of rainfall fell in just one hour yesterday evening. south of darlington. the weather has been fairly lively, to put it mildly and today again, we're looking at sunny spells and showers. the heaviest of which in the afternoon will be across scotland and northern ireland. we have to weather fronts. the first one across england and is leaving wales. pushing across into east anglia and the south—east before clearing. sunny skies come out with a few showers in the second weather front northwards across scotland, eventually resting on the northern isles. for scotland and northern isles. for scotland and northern ireland, sunshine and showers. heavy, thundery and

slow—moving. england and wales, the west sees showers but a lot of sunshine and dry weather around and any showers we do see will be blown along quite quickly. not much of a breeze across scotland and northern ireland, that is why they are slow—moving. 19 in the rain in the north to about 25 as you push further south. i think it says 16 and loic. as we head on into the evening and overnight. and then we've got the next band of showers coming in from the west across northern ireland, western scotland, western parts of england generally and also western wales. temperatures falling between about 11 and 15 degrees. then as we go through tomorrow, the east starts of dry and bright with a fair bit of sunshine but in the west, although showers that have come in overnight, start to drift steadily eastwards and again, for england and wales, although there will be some heavy ones, the chance of wonder as well,

moving through quite quickly in the breeze. scotland and northern ireland, not much of a breeze so if you catch one, you will know all about it and again, heavy and thundery. we are starting to see these rainfall totals mounting up. temperatures, 15—23 so down a touch on today. for wednesday, temperatures, 15—23 so down a touch on today. forwednesday, more temperatures, 15—23 so down a touch on today. for wednesday, more rain or showers to come across northern ireland, scotland, northern england and wales. some of it could well fall in the areas we don't need any more rain, neither do we want it and further south, you are showers and still quite easy. highs up to 23. we we re still quite easy. highs up to 23. we were watching that really closely because we know this morning, there isa because we know this morning, there is a lot to talk about with the weather and the implications of the rain. we are live to whaley bridge this morning and the scenes in means we need to talk about our infrastructure. that's the scene

this morning, live at whaley bridge where they are continuing to try to get the water down. lots of pumping over the course of the last few days. still trying to shore up the dam itself. it looks beautiful but it can be dangerous. we're joined now by hydrologist professor hannah cloke, and by richard coackley, a former president of the institute of civil engineers. hannah, ifi hannah, if i can start with you. hydrologist. tell us what yourjob involves and how it relates to what's been happening in whaley bridge. mostly a look at heavy rainfall and how the might lead to flooding and where people are at risk so i've been quite concerned to see these people put at risk, by this dam failing, which is concerning indeed. we've seen really heavy rain which has led to this problem. it's been good to see people evacuated in the plans in

place. what do you make of what's been happening over the last 48 hours? it seems everything has been done. trying to make sure there is not a catastrophic amount of water coming through? absolutely, first thing, congratulations to the volunteers and professionals have actually nursed the dam through intensive care. it's fantastic what they've done. it continues to become safer. we're looking at this with untrained eyes. it like things are improving but what is the work that will still be happening now? what are they still trying to do? it refers to it as a dam in intensive care. there will be pressure monitors inside that dam and just like a natural human being body, people will be checking the blood rushes and checking that it's all 0k as we do watering. if you dewater to

quickly, you could create a failure on the upstream side. they want to increase the safety, against maintaining the integrity of the dam. they can then make those remedial changes. more long—term, we're looking at whaley bridge and worrying about that but we mentioned on the introduction, we are getting wetter and warmer. is our infrastructure under threat because of changing climate? all the evidence points to the fact that we're going have more intense and heavy rain all. we've seen heatwaves come through. all those related to climate change. we have a serious problem in that most of our infrastructure is victorian, yes we can do something about it, up to

standard. but a programme of making us standard. but a programme of making us feel safer we have such old infrastructure. will there be a list somewhere for engineers up and down the country of places that could potentially be at risk. every day has a supervising engineer and an inspecting engineer appointed and they look at this all the time and although supervising engineers and inspecting engineers talk with each other about what's going on so the latest information that's going on at whaley bridge will be shared across. it's so important to understand this climate change process. it's notjust rain. the strong wind blew up the whole of that reservoir because it's south—west north—east facing. that could actually change the water levels by half a metre. it's the

combined aspect, not just levels by half a metre. it's the combined aspect, notjust rain, its wind, its temperature, climate changes all of those things. from what you know and what you are seeing, how soon could be the debiting returns to normalfont generality? it will return to normal regarding people getting back into their home. the next couple of days. it simply as it is. the next aspect is, the canal system, they will be no water because the dam is empty. how do you regain commerce and the tourist injury expect industry? then you've got potentially two years, maybe more, of reconstructing that auxiliary. a lot of work still to do. thank you both very much indeed. it's great to talk to this morning. thank you for your insight into the situation. i suppose there are other dams and engineers working on

various dams around the country think, right, we have to have a careful look. and has hannah said, the weather is changing. as carol tells us modes days. coming up on the programme. two adventurers are preparing to circle the globe in a restored spitfire. breakfast‘s tim muffet is at goodwood, where preparations are under way. good morning. it's one of the most famous aircraft ever made. the spitfire, played a hugely important role during world war ii however you probably haven't seen one in this colour before. polished aluminium, the silver spitfire and it's about to embark on an extraordinary journey. for the first time, plan for the spitfire to play all the way around the world. it's going to take four months, travel from 27,000 miles and will visit 30 countries. we will be meeting the two pilots taking part a little later. first, the news, travel, and weather where you are.

good morning, i'm asad ahmad. a teenager has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after a 6—year—old boy was thrown from the viewing platform at the tate modern. london air ambulance were called to the scene to attend to the boy yesterday afternoon. he's now in a critical condition but stable in hospital. a 17—year—old will be questioned by police today. the gallery remains closed. a 15—year—old girl from london has gone missing while on holiday in malaysia. nora quoirin, who has learning difficulties, arrived in a town near the capital, kuala lumpur, on saturday for a holiday. when her parents awoke yesterday morning, they found her missing. a charity says it's been told by local police that her disappearance is being treated as an abduction. and 89—year—old woman has died in north london with police believing it may have happened during a possible burglary at a home in tottenham.

detectives think they gained entry into her flat at waltheof gardens on the weekend and they are appealing for information. germany has won the fifa world cup football final in london. millions of people around the globe watch the e world cup final last night played at the o2 arena in greenwich. it was won by germany's mohammed harkous who beat saudi arabia's mosaad aldossary 3—2. the trophy was presented, with the winning prize money of over £200,000, by crystal palace's wilfried zaha. before we get the travel, let me tell you the planned strike at heathrow has been called off to allow for further talks over pay however ore than 150 flights have been cancelled, and if there's no agreement today, there could be a walkout tomorrow. if we look at the travel, good service on all lines so far but on the trains, south—eastern services of cancellations and delays between london bridge and charing cross due to a signalling fault. usual queues on the a13.

through goresbrook. now the weather with lucy martin. hello, good morning, sunshine and showers to come over the next few days and a fresher feel than we've seen of late. today, greatest chance of seeing a shower this morning, turning brighter into the afternoon. we could see one or two early showers first thing, the cloud then thickening, with some showery outbreaks of rain pushing east through the late morning and early afternoon. brightening up through the late afternoon with some sunny spells. temperatures at a maximum of 25 degrees celsius with a south—westerly breeze. through this evening, there'll be some late spells of sunshine. and overnight, it looks like it will stay dry with some clear spells. some patchy cloud as well with temperatures not falling too far, an overnight low of around 13—15 degrees celsius. then tomorrow, the greatest chance of seeing those showers comes into the afternoon. if you catch one of the showers, they could be heavy, possibly thundery, temperatures dipping down a touch on what we expect to see today. still one or two showers through wednesday with thursdcay looking a touch drier with highs

of 24 degrees celsius. if you tune into bbc radio london, you'll hear vanessa feltz until10:00. hello, this is breakfast with dan walker and sally nugent. here's a summary of this morning's main stories from bbc news. president trump has said "hate has no place" in the united states after 29 people were killed in two mass shootings in texas and ohio. when asked about gun regulations, the president said "perhaps more has to be done" to prevent shootings, but stopped short of making any commitments. a 21—year—old man has been charged with capital murder following the el paso shooting, which means he could now face the death penalty. a six—year—old boy is in a critical condition after being thrown from a tenth floor balcony at the tate modern art gallery in london. a teenager has been arrested

on suspicion of attempted murder. police say there's nothing to suggest that the 17—year—old suspect knew the child. a 15—year—old girl from the uk has gone missing while on holiday in malaysia. nora quoirin, who has learning difficulties, arrived in the town of seremban with her family on saturday for a two week "trip of a lifetime". when her parents awoke on sunday morning, they found her missing and the window of her hotel room open. a charity, the lucy blackman trust, says it's been told by local police that her disappearance is being treated as an abduction. 20 hospitals in england stand to benefit from a pledge by the prime minister to spend an extra £850 million on nhs building projects. it comes after borisjohnson promised an overall cash boost for the nhs of 1.8 billion pounds. there will be new investment in medical equipment and an attempt to end the dispute about doctors' pensions. labour said it fell "significa ntly short" of the amount needed. here's the health secretary, matt hancock.

the money for the nhs is flowing in this year, it is immediate. we have upgrades whether shovels can get going on the ground. i'm going later to boston in lincolnshire, who need a new amd, and they are getting that amdfunding as a new amd, and they are getting that amd funding as a result of today's announcement. some of the funding is going to much smaller upgrades and improvements in maintenance, that are needed in hospitals right across the country. the authorities responsible for a damaged dam in derbyshire believe at least two more days of pumping are needed to get the water to a safe level. more than 1,500 people have been evacuated from whaley bridge. officers have criticised some residents who have refused to leave, saying they are putting their lives and those of the emergency services, at risk.

we were just talking about changes in the weather making infrastructure more difficult to predict. this is a live shot of whaley bridge, it looks gorgeous, but a huge operation is continuing this morning. we can get the latest on the operation now from gavin tomlinson, who's the deputy chief fire officer at derbyshire fire and rescue. thank you so much for taking the time to talk to us, when i know you are very busy at the moment. the latest we are hearing is that water levels have dropped by more than three metres. does that mean whaley bridge is out of danger? good morning. no, at the moment, you can see there is a huge operation going on, it will continue to go on for a few days yet. water levels, as you can see, have dropped considerably. we are now below half the we want, and we are going for about 25%. if

we can get down to 25% we should be able to get below the level of the damage on the dam wall which will allow the engineers and specialists to inspected. so they are doing their assessments. what other work is being done as we speak? we have 23 pumps, ten of which are fire service pumps, and 30 from other contractors. they are pumping 24 hours a day, we are monitoring them, moving them, we are working across all agencies, and the contractors are doing a fabulous job all agencies, and the contractors are doing a fabulousjob behind me. they are working hard, they haven't stopped because they want to remove the risk and protect whaley bridge. ijust want the risk and protect whaley bridge. i just want to acknowledge that most of the residents in whaley bridge have been fantastic, they have left without fuss, evacuated at short notice, allowing everyone to concentrate on the emergency rather than focusing on other things. it has been a multiagency operation.

hopefully, when we get to a safe level, we are ahead of the weather, head of our predictions, we will get there this week. most of the residents have moved out of their homes, but some went back and wanted to stay. what happened there? people have gone back, and i understand people's concerns and people sometimes have nowhere else to go, but we need to focus on the emergency we have. we have stopped people going in to collect further belongings because it is a distraction from what we're the task in hand is to get the water level down so we can fix the dam wall. then the emergency phase will be over and we can look at the repair of the dam wall.

later on, carol will have all the weather for us. very mixed over the next few days, sunshine and showers. holly is here with the sport. talking about day five of the first ashes test match. it started, remember, day one, stuart broad taking wickets in the first few overs, taking wickets in the first few overs , we taking wickets in the first few overs, we thought it would be great! we were giddy with excitement, we didn't know if it would make five days! it certainly has, and steve smith has had a lot to do without. his only weakness seems to be that he gets out when he reaches the 1405. england will need a massive final innings to win the first ashes test at edgbaston. australia set them a target of 398 on day 4, and that man steve smith had a lot to do with it. joe wilson reports.

in sport, a precious few seem to live in a different world, to move at their own speed and dictate the pace — true vips. steve smith is one. he arrived at edgbaston at 9:45am, ready to bat all day. england had to try something. something? well, that's different. a surprise at least. options were limited with anderson injured. jofra archer was only a substitute fielder. he couldn't bowl — well, not until the next test. smith was still doing his thing. he bats like nobody else — great fun, unless of course you are the bowler. plenty more where that came from. how is your patience — wilting? a word from stokes, a reply from smith. even edgbaston's enthusiasts at times struggled. with this shot, smith got to 100, his second of the match, and with every beaming minute, he extended australia's lead. his personal total — 142.

england's captain knows one thing already. he needs a new theory for steve smith. well, matthew wade took the opportunity to find his form. he made 100 as well. remember when australia were on the ropes in this test? well, it seems like a very different ashes now. even australia's tail—enders were dispatching england's weary bowlers, as australia's lead grew. they invited england to bat again, 397 ahead. england's opening batsmen began their second innings and survived. plenty more of this to come. australia have got themselves into a winning position, and they knew who to thank. cheers, steve. it's kind of a dream comeback, in a way. to able to score two hundreds in a match, in the first ashes test match, it's something i've never done in any form of cricket before in my life. so it's incredibly special, and special to be able to, i guess, put us in the position that

we're in now, going into day five. it wasn't to be for england's charley hull or georgia hall, the defending champion at the women's british open. hull's been playing on her home course of woburn this week but she fell away from the leaders on the final day. instead, it went right to the final hole to decide the winner, but with this brilliant birdie on the 18th, japan's hinako shibuno secured her first major title. remarkably it's the first tournament the 20—year—old's played outside her home country. lewis hamilton can relax on his summer holidays after extending his lead in the formula one drivers' championship to 62 points. he overtook red bull's max verstappen with just three laps to go to win the hungarian grand prix. the sport now takes a four week break, with nine races left when they return at the end of the month. i am really grateful for today, and really for the team

for continuing to believe in me and continuing to push and to be able to — for a race to be able to push like that, and it went all the way. manchester city won the season's curtain raiser, the community shield with a penalty shoot out win over liverpool. raheem sterling had put city ahead with his first goal against his former club, but with 13 minutes left, joel matip got liverpool's equaliser. that sent the game straight to penalties, where gabrieljesus scored the crucial kick. city won this trophy last season too and then went onto win the premier league and fa cup titles. it is nice we won the league, and now the shield. the reality is the quality of the opponent, and we knew how difficult it would be because they are an exceptional team. but we

beat them anyway, so it is nice. the scottish premiership also returned this weekend with a five goal thriller at pittodrie as aberdeen came from behind to beat hearts 3—2. ryan hedges late goal was the difference — smashed in with just five minutes remaining. meanwhile, rangers'2—1win over kilmarnock was overshadowed by fans who invaded the pitch and allegedly destroyed the roof covering disabled fans — injuring one man. police scotland say four men have been arrested on suspicion of breaching the peace. i'm not going to bring you any more information on the wigan athletic, my pie, because we are going to try to get you a bridie. that's a pie, didn't you know that? no... i need to sort myself out.

let's return to one of our main stories now — a six—year—old boy is in a critical condition after being thrown from a tenth floor balcony at the tate modern art gallery in london. police say a 17—year—old boy has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. we can speak now to bbc journalist olga malchevska, who was at the tate modern at the time of the incident. thank you very much for talking to us this morning. can you tell me what you were aware of happening yesterday? i can tell you about something that i saw with my own eyes. i was on the balcony on the 10th floor, and at one moment i was with my son, and at one moment people started to push each other, and there was a noise around, and my first intention as i was with a little child was to move out of their, so we started to move towards their, so we started to move towards

the exit. then i saw a woman who was running and shouting, my son, my son! she was crying desperately. well, there were many people around, and we were all trying to get back into the elevator, so literally we jumped with mike head into the left, and everybody was shocked inside, because people already knew that the boy dropped down and everybody was discussing how it could have happened. the guys who were close to me, they saw how one boy was pushing another, but as i didn't see that, i don't want to make any speculations about it. what happened next, we went down to the ground floor and security asked us not to panic, and i must admit they were very kind and polite and theyjust told us that all the exits were closed, so we could not move out, and then people started gathering around and there

we re started gathering around and there were people already panicking so security tried to help to prevent people from pushing each other, and we we re people from pushing each other, and we were told to wait. nobody could explain what was going on, and then i saw some windows that were closed with white curtains. through the window i could see that there were many ambulances coming to the tate modern, and there was a helicopter later, and then i saw some paramedics carrying somebody, wrapped in cloths, it was not possible to see through the window whether there was a person inside, but paramedics stopped and tried to help and then they put them into the helicopter, and the helicopter went away. when i spoke to security after that he said that the boy who dropped down survived, luckily, and the helicopter took him to hospital,

soi the helicopter took him to hospital, so i can just the helicopter took him to hospital, so i canjust pray the helicopter took him to hospital, so i can just pray that everything will be fine with him. what i wanted to admit as well is that on the balcony there was a fence probably the height of my shoulder, so it was not dangerous, and not possible to just fall down, so i really didn't see how it happened, and i hope everything will be fine once again. it is incredible to hear your testimony, what you saw, it must have been incredibly frightening just to be there. actually, at that particular moment people didn't know what exactly happened. since it was a child, my first instinct was to ta ke a child, my first instinct was to take my child away so he didn't say that i was scared or something like that. but afterwards when you realise that anything can happen around you, and also, i saw the guy

standing on the balcony, and there we re standing on the balcony, and there were not that many people, and the most horrible thing is that you never know who other people are. you think kindly about each of them and you think everyone around you is good and you can never think that something horrible can happen, so it is just something horrible can happen, so it isjust something something horrible can happen, so it is just something you can never know what can happen around you. thank you very much indeed for talking to us this morning. it's as olga said, you read some of those eyewitness accounts, and your first urges grab your child. you can't understand the panic of getting down to that platform. in the confusion. horrible. carol has it for us this morning. a bit of a mixed bag. good morning to you. i'll

some of the showers have been slow moving and thundery, especially across parts of scotland and northern ireland this afternoon. we had to weather fronts costing us. the first one is making progress across northern england, down towards the south of england and will continue to the rest of the morning to the early part of the afternoon, to move away from east anglia in the south—east. we have another band moving northwards, becoming ensconced in the northern isles. as temperatures rise, that is when we will see the thundery showers develop and because there is not much of a breeze, it will be slow—moving. for england and wales, it brightens up. a few showers likely in the west but they will move quickly through because it's breezy here. in the sunshine, highs

of 25 will feel quite pleasant. we're looking at 16 as we push up into rain across low work. through this evening and overnight, the rain continues to as advanced northwards. a few showers around the start the night. a lot of dry weather though. by night. a lot of dry weather though. by the end of the night, more showers piling on across northern ireland, western scotland and western parts of england and also wales. some of those will also be heavy. breezy across the southern half but not so the northern half. overnight lows are between 11 and for dean. tomorrow we start off on the east on a dry note. the showers already in the west will push from west to east. once again, some of those will be happy with the odd rumble of thunder. blowing through quite quickly in the breeze across the south but slower moving across the south but slower moving across the north. temperatures 15 to about

23. then for wednesday, more showers on the cards. across northern england where we don't want them and into wales. showers will be fewer and far between and if you do catch one, still breezy in the south so it will rattle through quickly. it's going to be slow—moving. we'll be starting to see those rainfall totals mount up. thursday, a bit of a respite because there will be a bit of dry weather around, sunshine and patchy cloud. just a few showers around the borders and getting on across north—east england but later in the day, we will start to see the cloud can across the south—west, held in the arrival of another band of rain so down, you are right when you say it is very unsettled. a good time to go on holiday. you just came

back. so did you. and it's your birthday. how are you celebrating? working. did you not try and get off today? actually was supposed to be on leave, i took the day off. someone twisted my arm. it wasn't me, by the way. because louise is of course offered the moment doing her incredible triathlon. what a wonderful way to spend your birthday, talking about all sorts of things and talking to victoria about the threat of airport strikes. high on the list of birthday goals. less than six hours before a strike was due to begin at heathrow, a temporary truce was reached between the airport management and the unite union. that means that

today's strike is off. but the news came too late for nearly 200 flights which had already been cancelled. there could also still be a walkout tomorrow and more later in the month. so not good news , this is the view of one of the passengers who was caught up in the disruption. families have been saving up the months, the only time that they travel with the kids, it's a busy time forfamilies. travel with the kids, it's a busy time for families. would travel with the kids, it's a busy time forfamilies. would be looking for months and months to go on a holiday and how they are getting this from the workers at heathrow. we can talk now to sharron livingstone, founder of the travel magazine, who is in our london newsroom this morning. lots of people will have been in paul's position, pretty upset about it. it is the airport responsibility or the airline responsibility to let people know what is happening? it's everybody‘s responsibility. it's been a bit of a rollercoaster. everyone's been on the edge of their seat. is it my flight that's been

cancelled. there's been lots of internal frustrations for people and as we watch, everybody trying to create the best of their agenda. but for holiday it'sjust create the best of their agenda. but for holiday it's just a create the best of their agenda. but for holiday it'sjust a case of, am i going to go on holiday? we have to just know that there is only one thing to do and that is to be alert and keep on checking to see if you can actually grab your flight on time because you may have been diverted onto a different flight. shipped the strike is still on. what are your rights if your flight is cancelled because of this kind of action? it's not the actual airline's halt on this occasion. if it was, we would be entitled to compensation but because it's the airport and the workers there, the compensation is not payable to holidaymakers. so there is no way of

getting that type of compensation. it would have to now be reliant on the airlines themselves, what are they willing to do, i know that they will try their hardest to put you on a different flight. it may not be convenient for you but that's what they will be wanting to do. they will be looking to do that. easier said than done because we are in the peak holiday season. it's not as if there is a lot of supply going around in terms of spare seats. can we expect more strikes like this this summer? there is another one planned on the 23rd on 24th of august but if the talks work out nicely and everyone walks away nicely, that will be suspended. heathrow, towards the end of august, it's saturday the 10th. a whole

month ahead. victoria, we will, thank you. two aviation enthusiasts are preparing to circle the globe in a 75—year—old spitfire. they're setting off from goodwood this morning, on a journey that's expected to take four months. breakfast‘s tim muffet is there. the spitfire played a hugely important role during world war ii. having a quick chat to the two pilots were going to be flying it around the world. matt and steve. the spitfire was the most iconic plane ever built. the shapes, the elliptical win, every man's dream to

grace the skies. but this particular one was built in 1943 and flew 51 times during the war and we started rebuilding it about two years ago. we drilled out 80,000 rivets and with the help of iwcr sponsors, we have rebuilt everything on the goal is to take this plane to the world and that other people see the magic of the spitfire. a phenomenal feet to attempt. what's it going to be like logistically flying the first leg? we've been working on the logistics for two years, making sure fuel is on the right places, the kind of fuel the aircraft needs. weather today is going to play a pa rt weather today is going to play a part in it and around the world will bea part in it and around the world will be a huge factor. because we can only fly when we see the ground have good weather. it makes it exciting. there are two of you but only room for one person. just how cramped is

it going to be? this is a singleseat aeroplane. it was always billed as one. the cockpit is very tight. you don't get in the spitfire, you sort of wear it. you put it on like a jacket. when you're in it, your sides are up against the wall. you look at the cloud and sort of go there magically. it's the most fantastic feeling. where is the other person going to go? we have a second plane and we have 30 countries, 27,000 miles, over100 stops. there is going to be two of us sharing the workload. matt, you've been flying for ten years. what they like to fly? it's impossible to put it into words. it's an absolute dream. when you look at the history of the aircraft, to have any part and that is a great honour and the pure flying characteristics is so special. melt the two together you have something out of this world, it means an enormous amount. thanks ever so much

it's monday 5th august. our top story... president trump has said "hate has no place" in the united states after 29 people were killed in two mass shootings in texas and ohio. but he's been accused of encouraging extremism because of his speeches around immigrants. a 21—year—old man has been charged with capital murder following the el paso shooting, which means he could now face the death penalty. peter bowes has more. two mass shootings in one weekend. america is once again struggling with its response to gun violence. in el paso, a predominantly hispanic city on the texas border with mexico, 20 people were murdered when a gunman opened fire at a shopping mall. the suspect, 21—year—old patrick crusius, is in custody. he is believed to have posted an online document calling the attack a response to the "hispanic invasion of texas." officials say the attack on saturday shoppers is being viewed as domestic terrorism, and the authorities are considering bringing hate crime charges.

we are treating it as a domestic terrorism case, and we're going to do what we do to terrorists in this country, which is deliver swift and certain justice. in dayton, ohio, nine people died when a student fired into a crowd outside a busy bar in the early hours of sunday. he was shot dead by the police, who were on the scene within seconds. the gunman, whose motives are not known, has been named as 24—year—old connor betts. his 22—year—old sister, megan, is among those who died. assault—style weapons were used in both attacks. political reaction to the shootings has been swift. several senior democrats blamed president trump, in part because of the angry rhetoric he has used in the debate over immigration, and in clashes with ethnic—minority members of congress. as the president left the newjersey golf club where he spent the weekend, he praised the response of law enforcement officials

in el paso and dayton, and he promised action to stop mass shootings. hate has no place in our country, and we're going to take care of it. # so darling, darling, stand by me... mr trump said he would be making another statement on monday, but he gave no clue about how he would address the decades—old problem of gun violence. a six—year—old boy is in a critical condition after being thrown from the tenth floor balcony at the tate modern art gallery in london. police say a 17—year—old boy has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. let's get more on this from our reporter michael cowan, who's at the tate modern for us. what do we know so far michael? so, the latest development from the metropolitan police is that the six—year—old boy was thrown from the tenth floor of the viewing balcony just behind me, and he is now in a

sta ble just behind me, and he is now in a stable condition, he is no longer in a life—threatening condition, his condition is still critical but it is no longer life—threatening, say the met police. we know that he was thrown off the tenth floor balcony behind me and landed on the fifth floor roof of the main tate modern building. it was a very busy day yesterday, it was packed with pa rents yesterday, it was packed with parents and their children, it was the first sunday of august, right in the first sunday of august, right in the middle of the summer holidays, peak tourist season. it was incredibly busy and it was very distressing for many to see that six—year—old boy thrown off the tenth floor. he was airlifted from here to a local hospital where, like you say, he is now in a non—life—threatening but still critical condition. the police have arrested a 17—year—old boy on suspicion of attempted murder, and he remains with the police this morning, with their inquiries ongoing. and there were some terrible eyewitness reports yesterday of a terrified mother

watching her son fall, and terrified pa rents watching her son fall, and terrified parents scrambling for the lifts. so it was a very distressing day for many people yesterday but that boy is now in a non—life—threatening condition. a 15—year—old girl from the uk has gone missing while on holiday in malaysia. nora quoirin, who has learning difficulties, arrived there with her family on saturday for a two—week "trip of a lifetime". let's get the details from our south—east asia correspondentjonathan head. is there anything else we know about this situation? well, no, except that we know that she hasn't special needs and disabilities and her pa rents say needs and disabilities and her parents say it would be completely out of character for her to have disappeared. she went to bed in the resort they had just arrived at south of kuala lumpur, it is a forest resort right next to a jungle national park. and she went to bed

on saturday night, and on sunday, she was missing and the window was open. and the malaysian police now have started an extensive search of the area. we understand they are treating it as a possible abduction, not as somebody who has just wandered off. so, that's the area of investigation they're looking into. but at this stage they have got no indication as to where she has gone, or they are certainly not telling us whether they have any indications, whether they have any indications, whether somebody came into her room or not. but given her learning disabilities, her family are extremely concerned about her safety, her vulnerability, her inability to communicate, and very, very concerned about the possibility that somebody might have taken her. the emergency services battling to stop a dam collapsing in derbyshire say at least two more days of pumping are needed to get the water to a safe level. more than 1,500 people have been evacuated from whaley bridge. our reporter sam fenwick

is there this morning. sam, residents were updated at a meeting last night, what were they told? and what is the situation this morning? well, the sun hasjust come out, which will be a welcome sight for the people of whaley bridge. over the last 24 hours, the level of the reservoir has dropped by 2.5 metres. we still need to drop another three metres before it is at another three metres before it is at a safe level which the engineers can go in and check what is actually the problem and what has caused that breach. joining us now is deputy rachel sporn from derbyshire police. the meeting last night of residents, it got a bit heated, i understand? it only got heated in terms of people feeling really passionately about what has happened, and i can't emphasise how supportive and brilliant the local community has

been, community spirit has been fantastic, people were raising legitimate issues and that is why we had the meeting, so they could raise them. but they were not about being evacuated, it was practical measures in terms of road closures and information. use a passionate and heated but actually it was a really supportive meeting. what about those people who have gone back to their houses and stayed in them? so, we've got a small number of people, 22 people across 16 households, who remained in their houses. some of them have remained in there from the start, some have taken the opportunity to go back and stay there. and there was certainly no support from other local residents for those actions. where are those people say that they are still in their houses. where are their houses isa their houses. where are their houses is a net within the evacuation zone. we have a busily got three areas and some of are in the most highest risk area, but all of it is the evacuation zone, which means we think their lives are at risk. we said that we have lost 2.5 metres again over the last few hours, we need to get down another three

metres, if we are losing 2.5 metres every 24 hours, does that suggest that we have got another 24 hours' worth of pumping to go? that is something the residents are really keen to know, when they can go home. we have got a number of factors involved in that, the weather needs to hold off and the mitigation we have put around the reservoir to stop more water coming in also needs to hold up. but we are making progress ahead of schedule. i'm really hopeful that we will get to the point where the engineer can assess the structural integrity of the dam which will hold the remaining water back, today i am hoping they can have a look at that so that we can start looking forward and saying, how can we residents back and well made —— when will it be safe? thank you very much for joining us this morning. so, the water level will drop, we will check then whether it is safe for people to go back to their houses, and there are sandbags put all around there are sandbags put all around the edge of the reservoir to make sure that any water that runs off the hills can't get into the

reservoir. as you say, it looks fantastic, the weather looks clear, but there is more rain potentially on the way this week. they still need those levels to drop before engineers can start working on the dam. 20 hospitals in england stand to benefit from a pledge by the prime minister to spend an extra £850 million on nhs building projects. it comes after borisjohnson promised an overall cash boost for the nhs of £1.8 billion. there will be new investment in medical equipment and an attempt to end the dispute about doctors' pensions. labour said it fell "significa ntly short" of the amount needed. we've got some incredible pictures of art but of a slightly different

kind. i'm sure you have at some stage in life drawn some graffiti on your own car or on your parents' car. well, take a look at this example, because one man has taken things to a whole new level. "white van man" rick minns has become something of a local celebrity after mastering the art of van gogh style graffiti, which has helped him to raise more than £1,000 for charity. sally actually thought this was luke skywalker earlier on, but we have cleared it up, it is in factories may. i thought that one was prince charles, and it says boris! you know louise has got those emergency bbc brea kfast louise has got those emergency bbc breakfast glasses... she hasn't left them here for me! very impressive. more impressive than just writing the word cleaning, which is the most common one. we are going to return to a story which we have dealt with a lot on bbc breakfast recently. louise did a really interesting piece on the

menopause and what she had been through herself. we did a whole week talking about some of the things she has experienced and many others have gone through. this morning we're talking about something you might have read in the papers about doctors being able to halt the menopause. that was the striking headline on the front cover of the sunday times this weekend. it is an incredible story and even to be talking about it on bbc one at this time of the morning is progress, isn't it? but here we have a proper, scientific, step forward, potentially. the exclusive article claimed a simple procedure could transform the lives of thousands of women by tricking their biological clocks into thinking they're much younger than they are. so what's the science behind the headline? we'rejoined now by simon fishel, the ivf pioneer who's behind the new treatment, by cryobiologist dr manal elgendy.

tell us first of all how, actually, this takes place, what do you do and what can it do? do you want to tell them this can ok! what can it do? do you want to tell them this can 0k! it is a breakthrough and it is a big thing for women it is done through a very minor procedure. it is like a keyhole surgery, where the woman will go to the hospital and return home on the same day. we take a small part of the outer layer of the ovary, about one third, and it's done using microsurgical techniques, so we are really ensuring that we do not harm the remaining variant tissue. then, straightaway, this pa rt of tissue. then, straightaway, this part of the ovarian tissue will be

taken to the advanced facility in birmingham university, where our lab is based. and then, in the most strict sterile conditions, it will be processed and it will be trimmed into a very, very thin pieces of tissues, the maximum size, about 4—8mm, with 210 thickness, so it isa about 4—8mm, with 210 thickness, so it is a very delicate process, it takes about four hours to just do a freezing for one patient. —— with 1mm thickness. after that the tissue will be put in a cryo protector to preserve the tissue during the process of freezing. we will then

put it in a computerised freezer, where the freezing happens gradually but it needs to reach —150 before it is stored for as long as you need it for. and this is something which is actually done already for cancer patients, successfully? yes, this technology is on the back of 20 yea rs of technology is on the back of 20 years of experience of freezing a variant tissue to preserve fertility. in a sense all we have done is tojoin fertility. in a sense all we have done is to join the dots. to preserve the fertility and to be able to have, as hundreds of cancer patient's have now had, babies from the re—transfer of this tissue, we know that the hormone has been restored because you can't get successful fertility without the secretion of those hormones. so what we've decided to do is, we don't wa nt we've decided to do is, we don't want another younger generation of women now to miss out on an opportunity and the benefits for everybody concerned, including society, if this can be done, to be able to have a totally natural way

of being able to restore the hormone function. and what are the benefits? i'm assuming its bone density, heart health... ? i'm assuming its bone density, heart health...? of i'm assuming its bone density, heart health. . . ? of course, the i'm assuming its bone density, heart health...? of course, the menopausal symptoms are mild to severe, from anxiety, mood swings, hot flushes, as we know. and there are 13 million women in the uk that are going through the menopause. and over 60% of them seek medical help for this. it's quite huge. then you go on to more serious issues such as cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis isa cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis is a really big one, and even cognitive function. these can be all devastating side—effects of the menopause. you talk about those millions of women who either are going through it or getting ready for it. what criteria would you need to fall into in order to qualify for this and how much is the procedure going to cost? basically, we just need to ensure that they have a good ovarian reserve , so

need to ensure that they have a good ovarian reserve, so we know that we are storing something that would be functioning later on. so, the most important thing would be age. so really, we're looking at women below 35, after assessing good ovarian reserve , 35, after assessing good ovarian reserve, then they would be eligible, and also between 35—40, we could look into it and it all depends on what they are freezing the tissues for. obviously, the indication will make a difference for the age because if you're looking to have children and fertility, it's different than if you are looking just to delay the menopause or preserve hormones.” you are looking just to delay the menopause or preserve hormones. | am delighted to say we are nowjoint by dixie—louise dexter, one of the first women to undergo this procedure and to postpone the menopause. good morning to you. thanks for chatting to us, i know you are on holiday at the moment but this is such an important subject andi this is such an important subject and i know lots of women at home will be listening intently thinking, how do you do this, what are the advantages? just tell us why you had

to do this? i had the ovarian grafting because i had a hysterectomy last summer and i suffered with endometriosis for more than ten years and it was part of the ongoing treatment that i was given, really. so when i had my hysterectomy, the ovarian grafting happened at the same time. and how has it benefited you, do you feel? it's absolutely amazing. prior to that, because i'd struggled for so many years with the illness that i had, some of the treatments that i had, some of the treatments that i had had prior, i had had hormone treatments, which had put me into a chemical menopause, so i'd already experienced lots of the symptoms, i had had lots of the fatigue, i struggled with sleeping, i had wait gain, mood swings, all of those things. i didn't really want that to happen again, so when i had the ovarian grafting, it was almost after the recovery from the

hysterectomy, it almost! felt brand—new, the aches and pains have gone, sleep better, i'm much happier, my whole well—being and quality have life has just improved dramatically. which is brilliant to hear but it's not a cheap procedure, is it? no, it's not. but! hear but it's not a cheap procedure, is it? no, it's not. but i think in my experience, i wouldn't change what i've done because of the quality—of—life that i gained. because i was existing before, i wasn't living. and somebody in their early 30s, that is really difficult, andi early 30s, that is really difficult, and i would choose this because now i actually feel my age, and i have never felt that for all of my adult life, so it's amazing. that is lovely to hear, dixie—louise, it is great to talk to you this morning, what an incredible case story. just remind us of the cost, how much is

it? it depends on each individual case but i would say the ranges between £3000 to £7,000. so, a significant cost. when we discuss the menopause, at length on this programme, we did a whole week and we had some amazing stories coming m, we had some amazing stories coming in, and one thing people working to stress is that the menopause is not seen as something to be avoided, could that be an issue with this sort of procedure, do you think?“ you live long enough, you are going to go into the menopause, in that sense you can't avoid it. what people seek to avoid are the symptoms of the menopause. if you think that the only other alternative is to use a pharmacological compound which is delivered totally unnaturally, compared to what we are doing with this technology, which is to deliver the hormones that woman needs in the way that the body delivers it, totally naturally, in the exquisite rhythmicalfashion that totally naturally, in the exquisite rhythmical fashion that hormones are given, not in a pharmacological

dose. so, if already we are issuing, which we did last year, something like 3.3 million hrt prescriptions in the nhs, if we can do it totally naturally, why not? thank you very much for coming in this morning. here's carol with a look at this morning's weather. we've got really mixed fortunes with the weather, in powys at the moment, some lovely blue skies. whereas in hampshire, what a difference, again, a lot of cloud and some rain passing through but it will brighten up for you later on. what is happening todayis you later on. what is happening today is that we have some sunshine and some showers in the forecast, and some showers in the forecast, and the showers across scotland and northern ireland are likely to be heavy and slow moving. not as heavy or slow—moving as we follow behind this band of rain in the west of

england. so, the band of rain will continue to move eastwards across the rest of england through the morning and into the early afternoon before clearing, the sun comes out behind and we will see a few showers in the west. whereas in scotland we've got a band of rain moving northwards, becoming ensconced in the northern isles. behind that, for scotla nd the northern isles. behind that, for scotland and northern ireland, there will be some sunshine but there will also be some slow—moving, heavy showers with the chance of the order ramble of thunder. england and wales drying out nicely with some sunshine. a few showers in the west, where it will be breezier, particularly in the south—west. those showers will rattle through here quite quickly. temperatures, 16 in lerwick to 25 in london. this evening, there will be a lot of dry weather to start with but you will see the showers coming on quite quickly, especially by the end of the night, from the west. and some of them will be heavy. still quite breezy across the south of the country. a cooler night than the one just gone. tomorrow morning, we

start off with a fair bit of sunshine, the showers already in the west continuing to rattle eastwards. some of them will be heavy and thundery. still slow—moving in the northern half of the country. faster moving in the south, driven along on the breeze. temperatures down a notch. wednesday sees further heavy showers across scotland and northern ireland, and where we don't want them, across parts of northern england and wales. in the southern counties, although you could catch the odd shower, once again it will rattle through quickly on the breeze, whereas not much of a breeze further north. to produce wise, 15-23. if it is further north. to produce wise, 15—23. if it is something drier you are after, thursday looks promising. a lot of dry weather, a fair bit of sunshine around, patchy cloud developing through the course of the day. we could see some showers in parts of central and southern scotland, north—east england and later in the day, the cloud will

thicken up across the south—west, heralding the arrival of our next weather front. so, heralding the arrival of our next weatherfront. so, sally, it looks like you might be rained upon on your birthday, girl. carol, could your birthday, girl. carol, could you not fix it for me? i thought you could fix everything! now, for most of us, crossing the english channel involves a car, train orferryjourney, but for one man this weekend, none of those were an option. did he swim? yesterday, franky zapata became the first person to cross the 22 mile stretch of water on a fuel—powered hoverboard. the french inventor took off from calais before landing in dover just 20 minutes later. and franky joins us on the phone now. good morning to you, i know you are in an airport on your way to somewhere else, what was it like to finally achieve that crossing, because i know you've tried before?

could you repeat the question left what was it like to finally cross the channel, because i know you've tried before? it's just the channel, because i know you've tried before? it'sjust amazing. i failed last time because we didn't choose the right to... and it was really wavy last week and we didn't choose the right boat and the boat was really moving a lot, and also i didn't train to much and i fell, i just crashed. so, it was really painful for just crashed. so, it was really painfulfor me just crashed. so, it was really painful for me and just crashed. so, it was really painfulfor me and my just crashed. so, it was really painful for me and my team because we did 90% of the challenge, we wa nted we did 90% of the challenge, we wanted to cross 20 kilometres at 160km/h. we did 90% of thejob but finally, just a few seconds before the landing, i crashed. so, we were

disappointed, but now it is a success and i and so happy for my tea m success and i and so happy for my team and my family and all my friends that were involved in this crazy flight. what are you going to do next? we are working on flying cars, so our goal is to now finish this and release it before the end of the year. we've been working on that for two years and the project is finished. it's just now that we wa nt to is finished. it's just now that we want to release the perfect machine and we're still waiting for some approvalfrom the and we're still waiting for some approval from the french authorities, to be able to test the final product. but that is our next goal. franky zapata, it is fantastic to talk to you this morning, huge congratulations for that incredible flight congratulations for that incredible flight over the channel. it's very impressive, 20 minutes across the
