after pc andrew harper was killed during a spate of attacks on officers. richard lister reports. whistle blows a policeman's whistle marked the start of a minute's silence for pc andrew harper, murdered in the line of duty. around the country, police forces paused to reflect on a colleague lost. pc harper was the first policeman attacked and killed in the uk since 2017. but assaults on officers are on the rise. the latest figures show that in the year to march there were almost 31,000 attacks on police officers. that is up almost a fifth from the year before, with at least 28 attacks on officers everyday. martin hewitt, the chair of the national police chief's council said he will convene a meeting of chief constables next month, to see if there is anything where they can do to improve police safety.

writing in the daily express he said, if we cannot protect our people, how can we protect public? adding that we must never reach a point where it is acceptable for officers to be violently abused, attacked, injured or worse. in pc harper's hometown these ribbons acknowledge the thin blue line, working to keep us safe. but his death underlines the urgency to ensure police officers are kept safe, too. we'll be joined by the vice chair of the national police chiefs‘ council in around 15 minutes time. boris johnson will tell world leaders gathering at the g7 summit in france, that britain will not retreat from the international community as it leaves the european union. climate change, global trade and tensions in the gulf will be the at the centre of discussions hosted by president emmanuel macron. labour leaderjeremy corbyn urged the prime minister to put the future of the planet at the top of his agenda. speak up for the climate emergency around the world.

don't concentrate on doing sweetheart deals with donald trump, get no deal taken off the table, but the environmental emergency the whole world faces is serious, global warming that's is going on, global pollution that's going on, and the fires in the amazon rainforest — which president bolsonaro of brazil is actually promoting — so put all the pressure you can on president trump to recognise just how dangerous the situation is around the world. the brazilian president, jair bolsonaro, has ordered the armed forces to help fight a record number of fires in the amazon rainforest. in a televised address, he said the fires could happen in any country and shouldn't be used as an excuse for international sanctions. european leaders have threatened to scrap a major trade deal with the south american trading bloc unless more is done to tackle the fires. london north eastern railway has issued passengers with a "do not travel warning" for today and tomorrow, as more than 400 engineering works are being carried out across britain during the bank holiday.

0ur reporter michael cowan is outside london kings cross station which is closed this weekend. michael, what does this mean for passengers? yes, not much happening here, although there is more people. there will be no trains from here this began. the operator has issued a do not travel warning, meaning that destinations from london write up to places like edinburgh and inverness are going to be virtually inaccessible unless you go quite a long way round. that is also going to put pressure on other rail services, the line that was out of london euston is going but on a different schedule. that means lots more people will be taking to the roads. there are 97% of the roads will not have roadworks on for the transport agency have taken lots of

those roadworks away to make a smoother passage for commuters this weekend. but for those 3% there are going to be some quite significant delays. there is a 30 mile of road works networking among the m bore and on the m6 there an 18 mile near crewe. it'll make it very difficult for people on the road. between 1030 and two o'clock is said to be the busiest time. the advice for eve ryo ne busiest time. the advice for everyone is if you're going to festivals and everything else on this weekend, check the travel and check the route before you go. good advice, thank you. borisjohnson's warning that migrants would be sent back if they crossed the english channel to the uk, have been branded as "inflammatory" and "misleading" by campaigners. the prime minister's comments came after a surge in attempts — with nearly 100 people in one day taking to small boats to try to make the crossing from france. 0ur reporter amanda akass is in doverfor us this morning. another summer, another rise in the

number of people attempting to make a dangerous crossing. what more can you tell? yes, this last week has been one of the very busiest since records began, in terms of the number of people trying to make this crossing. thanks in large part to the warm weather and the dairy can't conditions out there in the english channel. 0n conditions out there in the english channel. on thursday, nearly100 migrants were caught trying to come across. by boats were intercepted of the kent coast and another landed on a beach in sussex. the french authorities stopped another, which had ten children and a baby on board. then yesterday, another two boats were intercepted, as well. all this pointed to borisjohnson's issue, a warning to maggots and we will send you back. although, since the start of the year, they have been 900 people who made the journey successfully and only 65 have been sent back. this is angered campaigners who say people have a legal right to make asylum claims in this case should not be prejudged. the whole of sa people take a huge risk to take this journey the

world's busiest shipping lane as the criminal gangs behind it have no regard for human life. woman was feared drowned after falling of a dinghy. the home others they are working hard with their counterparts in france on this as a home secretary is expected to bring this up secretary is expected to bring this up with her counterpart in france in coming days. amanda, thank you very much. bury football club is waiting to find out if a last minute deal to buy the club will prevent it from being kicked out of the english football league. bury‘s owner, steve dale, says he's agreed to sell to c and n sporting risk — a football analytics company. if the deal is accepted by the english football league, the club will not be expelled from the competition. medical leaders have called for an urgent meeting with the government to discuss continued shortages of hormone replacement therapy. it comes as one manufacturer, everol, has confirmed to the bbc that its products will not be available until the middle of next year. the department of health says it is working closely with suppliers

and patients should discuss alternative hrt products with their doctor. an employee at the uk consulate in hong kong has been released from custody in mainland china, where he'd been held for more than two weeks. simon cheng went missing during a business trip to shenzhen. china's foreign ministry confirmed that he had been detained for violating public security laws. a statement on his facebook page thanks people for their support and says he needs time to rest and recover. now, let's have a look at the raf display team flying over new york city. the red arrows have joined their us counterparts in a historic flight down new york's hudson river and around the statue of liberty. it was the first time the combination ofjets had been brought together in such a way. the team, based at raf scampton, near lincoln, are on a tour of north america to promote the uk.

i think it is a great way of doing it. anybody who has seen the red arrows knows they are stunning to watch. imagine watching that new your. absolutely stunning. ten past nine now. a gold medal—winning paralympian has spoken of her distress and frustration after she was stuck on a train in her wheelchair, with no guard to help her get onto the platform. eight—time paralympic champion, sophie christiansen, tweeted a video of her ordeal. it shows a passenger forcibly holding the train doors open for her, until a ramp was provided. sean killick reports. for sophie, every trainjourney is a bit of a mystery ride. not so much about where she is going, more what will happen when she gets there? on wednesday on her commute home from work, there was nobody waiting to lay a ramp, despite sophie having used social media to contact staff during the journey. a fellow passenger prevented the doors closing, while another went for help

and eventually iran arrived. —— eventually a ramp arrived. itjust makes me feel upset. because nothing is happening. so, yeah, i went home and i cried. when we joined sophie on another localjourney, there were staff at stations and on board who helped. though, at falcombe, there was a problem with the station's ramp and a delay while they fetched a replacement. so, actually, that is quite normal. the staff are amazing, you know, they are working with rubbish equipment and poor communication. the company has apologised to sophie and told us, whilst we successfully assist tens of thousands of customers every year, even one failed journey is too many. unbooked passenger assistance is a challenging area for the railway industry as a whole and swr is no different. we are working hard to try to stop this from happening. the rail delivery group representing

train operators said it was working to bring thousands of new more accessible carriages on track and speeding up the process for passengers booking assistance. sophie says she likes the sound of that destination, but wants them to get there quicker. let's talk to sophie now from her home in godalming. good morning tea and thank you very much for talking to us. just explain, we heard your story and heard exactly what happened, but just explained how upsetting it was for you. i just explained how upsetting it was foryou. i mean, i encounter events like this at least once every couple of months. so, it has not happened yet again, it is more upsetting for me, i have come to the end of my

tether. they need to make accessibility for wheelchair users better. as you say, tapestry and a reasonably break the basis. —— it happens to you on a reasonably regular basis. what do you think companies can do to try and improve things? there are many things that they could do, including better training for staff. investment in wheelchair ramps, which need to happen more. they can have better communication, because that is really what happens. communication, evenif really what happens. communication, even if i to beg an assistant, nine times out of ten nobody is there to

meet me with a ramp. because you often contact them, don't you, in advance of arrival, to say i'm on the and need assistance and arrive? so, train companies do like disabled passengers to book more than 24—hour is in advance. which is understandable, but quite often that is just not possible. i never know when i am going to finish work or how long it is going to take me to get to waterloo. so, ijust how long it is going to take me to get to waterloo. so, i just want to get to waterloo. so, i just want to get on the first train home like eve ryo ne get on the first train home like everyone else. yes, which is entirely understandable. south—west trains have said that whilst we successfully assessed tens of

thousands of customers every year, even one failjourney is too many. we have already spoken to miss kristiansen to apologise and insure we all learn from this and it will not happen again. our yukon police not happen again. our yukon police not happen again. our yukon police not happen again? not at all. it happens every single day to wheelchair users. something needs to happen, we have been complaining for yea rs. happen, we have been complaining for years. now is the time for action. we deserve equality. years. now is the time for action. we deserve equalitylj years. now is the time for action. we deserve equality. i really hope that you speaking out and sharing your story helps to make that happen. thank you to much for talking to us this morning.

i think it is about to say it will be warm, dare i say hot this bank holiday weekend? we are using the hot word this weekend. how about this for a saturday morning view from the lake district is a bit of nest year and 30 started, but plenty more hazy sunshine is coming through. especially across the large part of england and wales to start the weekend. many of us hereby get to see some sunshine as the day goes on. heat coming around this area of high pressure across the continent. so, the flow of air starts to bring that up from the south and south—east. they were load here indicates the low pressure close by. there are some weather fronts and thatis there are some weather fronts and that is why in scotland and northern ireland many of us have studied today with cloud and even some showers. they will gradually retreat northwards, still some in northern

scotland. maybe the further west you are in northern ireland, but the further east you see some sunshine. a lot of hazy sunshine in england and wales, clouds over it later in the aisles of selling us up as for those cabbages, you have cloud and the chance of a shower. elsewhere, mainly in the low 20s, about 20s and evenif mainly in the low 20s, about 20s and even if you spot into the low 30s across a large part of england. the cricket continues, it will continue and in the sunshine today. it will bea and in the sunshine today. it will be a hot one at wembley for the rugby league challenge cup final, as well it will be a warm night tonight, some areas of cloud around the north—west of the uk. showers play away from shetland later in the night and play away from shetland later in the nightand again play away from shetland later in the night and again one or two mist and fog patches. 0vernight temperature is creeping up, good news at the camping. into tomorrow, again not clear blue sky everywhere, there will be some patches of cloud. most

of two as wales and south—west england, compared with today's though, it is going to be dry across the board and we get to see some of that hazy sunshine. temperatures are higher, your eyes may be drawn to the 31 here. but 27 in glasgow, look at the cluster of 29 is going to be dry across the board and we get to see some of that hazy sunshine. temperatures are higher, your eyes may be drawn to the 31 here. but 27 in glasgow, look at the cluster of 29th across, particularly, england. 0 nto 29th across, particularly, england. 0nto the bank holiday, more chance of starting the day but missed and fog, especially across western parts, is about that in mind. slight chance of a shower, some brain edging towards the western isles later in the day. still a bit of uncertainty around the detail, but favouring the idea that it will be mainly dry. how about that? back to you. a ‘sickening trend‘ was how one police chief described a wave of recent attacks, that have left one officer dead and others seriously injured. pc andrew harper was killed last week

in the line of duty. now, in an unprecedented move, the national police chief‘s council is calling every chief constable in england and wales, for an urgent meeting on officer safety. the council‘s vice chair, giles york, joins us now from brighton. and very good money to you. this is the first time in meeting has been called of all 44 cheats outside of your usual quarterly meetings. what are you hoping to achieve? good morning. i think it is ready to note that it morning. i think it is ready to note thatitis morning. i think it is ready to note that it is the tragic death of police constable andrew harper that has sparked such a reaction across the country. as you saw earlier in your news programme, forces across the countryjoin your news programme, forces across the country join thames your news programme, forces across the countryjoin thames valley police to mark his passing in a proper way. the purpose of this meeting is to ensure that we had a coherent approach nationally. we

asked chief constables want more than nearly anybody else to ensure our staff are properly prepared, trained and equipped. in order to face the risks that they do every single day when i put themselves in the way of harm. one chief constable called the recent wave of violence is sickening trend, is that how you would characterise it? why has been an as uch? we had seen three brutal attacks in the last three weeks, absolutely that is right. it is not pa rt of absolutely that is right. it is not part of the job to be assaulted, as a police officer. i along with many of my chief consular colleagues write a personal statement to the court every single time somebody in charge. emphasising the back that it is notjust part of the job to be assaulted. policing is still an incredibly rewarding career. we had tens of thousands of positive interactions with the public every

single day. tasers will be issued to every front line officer, one uk police force northamptonshire, is that the right approach? one study by cambridge university showed that police officers visible with tasers where 44% more likely to be assaulted and another experiment finds that just the assaulted and another experiment finds thatjust the presence of tasers lead to greater overall hostility between police and the public. there is always a balance to be struck around how we equip our officers. and still maintaining that british pleats of policing that is policing by consent. chief constables to keep this under consta nt constables to keep this under constant review, we discuss it as a counsellor at one of our routing meetings last year and we changed the way that a taser can be deployed back then. it used to be only after two years experience when somebody

is out of their probation, that somebody could be issued with 805. but we went back to the home secretary through the college of policing to say actually, independent control. reckon nicely changing profile of our workforce and the threat that was posed to everybody. it remains an operational judgment are each cheap constable. there is great variety acr055 judgment are each cheap constable. there is great variety across this country and every chief mu5t there is great variety across this country and every chief must make that assessment on the threats their opposition ba5ed. it might not alway5 opposition ba5ed. it might not always seen as obvious as in the citie5 always seen as obvious as in the cities it is needed most, sometimes it might be in the rural areas where office r5 it might be in the rural areas where officers are naturally more isolated that they need to seem to be greate5t. that they need to seem to be greatest. thank you very much for joining us this morning. let us have a look at the papers. broadcasterjanice long is here to tell us what‘s caught her eye.

anybody has ever sat on it see what in any other seaside towns with a bag of chips will know exactly what paint the seagulls can and now, schoolchildren in north yorkshire are going to get lessons on what to do. yes, you know, chips, and scarborough and which be, the seagulls are fighting all that the time. they want they‘d. they will grab it out of the mouth of a child. a child was seriously injured. they‘re on the lookout for food all at the time for council workers are going into schools and taking cardboard singles with them, i‘m not quite sure what they do with the cardboard seagull, and then they are tying that what they should and should not do. i mean, advice is needed for everybody i think. exactly, it is happening all over the country and it is on the rise. 47 cases last year. but they‘re

giving you tips like do not put your rubbish out too early, look out for nests. but samantha gets me is if all else fails, stared them out. how do you stare a seagull out? if you stare, the chances are it will delay them by 23 seconds. staring at the goals will delay them by 23 seconds compared to taking no notice. i think i would instinctively duck. look at the picture. i am sure there are look at the picture. i am sure there a re lots of look at the picture. i am sure there are lots of seagull lovers who watch the programme, but that is quite a scary picture. this is an interesting story from the guardian, glasgow university‘s and adds it is paying £20 million in slavery reparations. i think it is fantastic, bold, moral historic. they have decided they want to pay,

because it profited such a lot. so much money, you are talking between 17 and £200 million on the 18th and 19th century. so, they arejoining forces with the university of west indies, there are going to give this move and conduct research. find a centre for development research, so it is their way of paying back. it‘ll be interesting to see what happens next, because there have been at other universities, 0xford, bristol, to name at the u, who are read out links to slavery colonialists. a difficult conversation, but a necessary one. necessary to take that step. lots of big events across the country this weekend. the notting hill carnival is on, as well. you always get, don‘t you, the great villains or they fell of a policeman joining in? i think you got in trouble last

year. they met police had been tradition they cannotjoin in. year. they met police had been tradition they cannot join in. this tendon to said they must focus on the crowd control. bobbies cannot dance, because we are dancing you are not concentrating. it is such a shame, because every year we get this photograph, don‘t we? the bobby on the beat dancing. daniel graham‘s went to barrett last year. —— went viral last year. i am glad that they will be great, but nobody dancing. —— no bobby dancing. taylor swift that is. pops out swiftly marked for love song to highgate and uni bit. that there is her new album and on the album is an ode tojoe.

that there is her new album and on the album is an ode to joe. in it she says on social media do it like dick van dyke in my poppins, ifancy you, take me back to highgate. it is all about loving the english, loving camden. verse two, i cannot do that job, stories from uni and the west end. you can find me job, stories from uni and the west end. you canfind me in job, stories from uni and the west end. you can find me in the pub watching rugby with his girlfriends. shoreditch in the afternoon, just picking out all these places that people are going. no, this really does not work. words like i fancy you and mates. show me a great guy, paper do not personally with a good time, they say that home is where the heart is, by god i love these. she is a great singer, i bet it is a really good song. good for content

though, her relationship. janice, thank you so much. lovely to see you. thank you for clearing up your mess, as well. coming up on breakfast, the sun is shining this weekend and you may be thinking it is perfect weather for a bank holiday bbq. but have you ever wondered how eco—friendly your barbecue is? brea kfast‘s jayne mccubbin is in stonyhurst in lancashire with some tips on how to grill and be green. that is the idea. he knew that the subject we get people so angry. he knew a watermelon pizza could make such theory be unleashed across the country, because, as the man who has just sold me my copy has said, mrs robert, . .. just sold me my copy has said, mrs robert,... it is a sin not to have meat on a barbecue. we're not anti—meat. in the next half an hour

we are here is the great british fit festival talking about how it can make the right have our bank holiday weekend barbecue for we are here with ali the academic. we are here with ali the academic. we are here with barbecue bent. good morning. look at this, this is what we‘re talking about, alternatives to meat. but you can still have meat and that is what they in the next 30 minutes, aren‘t we? just giving ideas, choices. nobody says this is better than a burger, nobody. he would be a film, wintry? in the next 30 minutes, a bit more of this, but how to make the right environmental, ethically green environmentally fairly choices when it comes to your bank holiday barbecue. all of this later, did keep getting in touch and twitter, perhaps with less anger. we will take a break now, after that the headlights. we will see use in.

hello, this is breakfast with rogerjohnson and tina daheley. coming up on the programme, nick will have all the bank holiday weekend weather, but first, a summary of this morning‘s main news. chief constables in england, wales and scotland will hold an emergency meeting next month after an alarming rise in violence against the police.

the national police chiefs‘ council called the crisis summit after pc andrew harper was killed during a spate of attacks on officers. details of the circumstances surrounding recent assaults will be discussed as well as how to stop the trend. boris johnson will tell world leaders gathering at the g7 summit in france, that britain will not retreat from the international community as it leaves the european union. climate change, global trade and tensions in the gulf will be the at the centre of discussions, hosted by president emmanuel macron. labour leaderjeremy corbyn urged the prime minister to put the future of the planet at the top of his agenda. speak up for the climate emergency around the world. don‘t concentrate on doing sweetheart deals with donald trump, get no deal taken off the table, but the environmental emergency the whole world faces is serious, global warming that‘s is going on, global pollution that‘s going on, and the fires in the amazon rainforest — which president bolsonaro of brazil is actually promoting —

so put all the pressure you can on president trump to recognise just how dangerous the situation is around the world. the brazilian president, jair bolsonaro, has ordered the armed forces to help fight a record number of fires in the amazon rainforest. in a televised address, he said the fires could happen in any country and shouldn‘t be used as an excuse for international sanctions. european leaders have threatened to scrap a major trade deal with the south american trading bloc unless more is done to tackle the fires. london north eastern railway has issued passengers with a ‘do not travel‘ warning for today and tomorrow, as more than 400 engineering works are being carried out across britain during the bank holiday. london‘s king‘s cross rail station is closed this weekend for work on replacing the tracks. network rail says maintenance has been planned so it affects the fewest number of people. borisjohnson is warning that migrants would be sent back if they crossed the english channel to the uk have been branded as "inflammatory"

and "misleading" by campaigners. the prime minister‘s comments came after a surge in attempts, with nearly 100 people in one day taking to small boats to try to make the crossing from france. earlier on breakfast, the former director general of uk border force told us there needs to be more rescources for border patrols. we do need to deter the smugglers, we do need to put them out of business and i‘m not sure at the moment we‘re winning that battle. so we do need to look at more resources, betterjoint working, our maritime defences. potentially, even a border patrol in this country responsible for the perimeter security, like they have in the states, because the border force is also responsible for a lot of other things and they‘re very stretched at the moment. medical leaders have called for an urgent meeting with the government to discuss continued shortages of hormone replacement therapy. it comes as one manufacturer, everol, has confirmed to the bbc that its products will not be available until the middle of next year.

the department of health says it is working closely with suppliers and patients should discuss alternative hrt products with their doctor. an employee at the uk consulate in hong kong has been released from custody in mainland china, where he‘d been held for more than two weeks. simon cheng went missing during a business trip to shenzhen. china‘s foreign ministry confirmed that he had been detained for violating public security laws. a statement on his facebook page thanks people for their support and says he needs time to rest and recover. now, let‘s have a look at the raf display team flying over new york city. the red arrows have joined their us counterparts in a historic flight down new york‘s hudson river and around the statue of liberty. it was the first time the combination ofjets had been brought together in such a way. the team, based at raf scampton, near lincoln, are on a tour of north america to promote the uk.

those are the main stories this morning. now the sport. it looks like barry have found a buyer, which is great news. there was a midnight deadline last night. just 16 minutes to spare. it seems there is a decent offer now and we will wait to hear from the english football league, whether they will ratify that offer and perhaps grant an extension. for bury fans, the best news they‘ve had all summer. for weeks now, uncertainty has surrounded the club‘s future — players went unpaid, staff were laid off, not a single league match has been played this season. but a credible deal came about late last night. c&n sporting risk are behind the takeover, saying in a statement "a club like bury should

have a viable and long—term future". speaking on breakfast, bury fan james bentley says the episode highlights the dangers of clubs spending money they don‘t have. i think it‘s a broader tale for football, in that fans have to be more aware of what is happening to the clubs behind—the—scenes. some clu bs a re the clubs behind—the—scenes. some clubs are exceptionally well run. in the north—west you have backed accrington, rochdale. at some clubs have people in charge you do not have people in charge you do not have the club was my best interest at heart. at this whole sorry affair can shoo fans anything, it is to scrutinise your clubs more. i want this club to mean as much to other people as it does to me. aston villa, of course, are back in the premier league, grabbed their first win of the season. they spent three years in the championship, but secured promotion last season.

after losing their first two matches, they beat everton 2—0 last night. a big win this one. record signing wesley and anwar el ghazi with the goals. we‘ve seen a team, a group of players out there that are working very hard for the shirt and, you know, knowing them as i do, that‘s what they appreciate and, you know, we managed to get to the premier league, you know, by going on a 10—match winning run last season and winning the play—offs, um, you know, and there‘s a lot of optimism, but they also know that we‘re stepping up a league, um, but there‘s a togetherness between all of us and it‘s great to hear. england‘s hopes of regaining the ashes look all but over after they were bowled out for 67 — the third time this year they‘ve been bowled out for less than 100. josh hazlewood took five wickets in what was england‘s lowest score against australia in 71 years. there was a glimmer of hope for england when australia were reduced to 52—3, only for marnus labuschagne to make an unbeaten 53, leaving australia on course to win this match and retain the ashes.

the guys we have selected we believe are good enough to do the job. the guys we have selected we believe are good enough to do thejob. i still believe they are. the facts are you only have to look at some of the stats to know that they can do better as a group. that‘s the challenge for them. that comes around through some guts and some skill. not quite a cricket score for england‘s hockey team, but a huge defeat, losing 8—0 to netherlands in the semi—finals of the euro hockey championships. goalkeeper maddie hinch called it the lowest point of her career. they were blown away by the world champions. the result means great britain miss out on automatic qualification for the tokyo 2020 olympics. they are the holders, remember. they will play a two—legged qualifier at home in november.

win that, and they‘ll qualify for the games. rory mcilroy is just one shot off the lead after the second round at the tour championship in atlanta. it is golf‘s most lucrative tournament, with the winner taking home 1£2 million. american brooks koepka is currently leading on 13—under par overall. what a match—up in rugby league‘s challenge cup today. st helens are up against warrington at wembley. it‘s 11 years since saints last won at wembley, but that ignores the huge gap they have at the top of super league. that 16—point advantage is over warrington, who are second. let‘s get more now from our rugby league reporter dave woods, who‘s outside the stadium. dave, st helens will start as overwhelming favourites, but it‘s been a while since they last won it.

i suppose form goes out of the window at a showpiece event like this today. absolutely. the 118th challenge cup final today. it is the first time these two sides have met... brian noble, the former grip written coaches with us. at challenge cup winner with the bradford bulls. john, you played for st helens last year. 16 points clear at the top of the super league. can you see a way that they don‘t win today? quite clearly, if they don't perform. although they are 16 points clear at the top. they are the best defensive 5ide. quite clearly, they are the best attacking 5ide, too. st helens have been the best defensive 5ide. they have produced something

playing at wembley. hopefully the gremlins will have been fixed. it is live on the bbc this afternoon. 75 years ago an american b24 bomber crashed into the centre of the lancashire village of freckleton. 61 people died — including 38 children when the plane burst into a fireball. yesterday, a special event was held with survivors and officials from the united states. 0ur reporter dave guest was there. august 1944. an american war plane has crashed into a village school. i saw the teacher fall, i saw a girl fall and i dived under my desk. it was awful. awful. in all, 61 people lost their lives, the majority children. a b24 liberator aircraft had been struck by lightning

and crashed into the lancashire village of freckleton. the village never forgot those terrible events. the names of the dead are inscribed on a mass grave where they were laid to rest. exactly 75 years on, the people of freckleton gathered in the church to remember those lost lives. ruby and david will never forget. they were five—year—olds inside the school when the stricken plane crashed to earth. the air was thick with smoke under the roof and i was telling myself that i would like to be outside. i went to my teacher and i saw her very gradually slump to the desk. and then you tried to get out? idid. and at the door there was a massive flame. so i went like this through the hole. ruby cowered under her desk. so that desk saved your life? possibly.

eventually they moved enough rubble to get the airmen inside and they picked me up and took me out, put me in a blanket and i was put in an ambulance. jean should have been at school that day but was ill. all we saw was lots of men and they were digging with their bare hands, digging. and this big wheel sticking out of the school. it was awful. awful. i will never forget it. i will never forget that day. this morning we have remembered before god... a new memorial was dedicated to mark the 75th anniversary. in the village hall, teacakes and a chance for them to share their memories of their day. do you remember? i remember it being black and horrible. do you still think about your classmates and your friends lost that day?

yes. around this time it is inevitable. while i have breath in my body, they will be remembered. here‘s nick with a look at this morning‘s weather. that is one of my favourite places in the world. it is looking gorgeous out there to start the day. england and will particularly at the moment, scotland and northern ireland a slower start today, but here, too, things will brighten up through the weekend with plenty of sunshine and temperatures on the up. we are bringing in some continental warmth in our direction from this area of high pressure

around that flow of air from the south and south—east. low pressure is still close by north—western parts of the uk, that‘s why for scotla nd parts of the uk, that‘s why for scotland and northern ireland there is still a fair amount of cloud to start the day and some of us are patch hours. into this afternoon, there will be some showers around in there will be some showers around in the north and west. central belt of scotla nd the north and west. central belt of scotland will brighten up. england and wales will have sun chang, albeit hazy. here is some cloud moving towards the isle of scilly later in the day. with the temperatures, northern scotland mid to upper teens, elsewhere we will be in the 20s, some places creeping into the 30s. it will start to feel a bit more humid in some spots. for the cricket, even if you don‘t want a full day of play, there is no choice in it, lots of fine weather today. hot on wembley for the challenge cup final, as well. in

tonight, showers and the far north of scotland, but they will push away. a few areas of cloud coming into the west, but it should stay dry. may some drizzle on the higher ground of wales. temperatures overnight heading up a little bit. a bit more cloud into parts of wales and south—west england compared to today. some sunshine more widely in northern ireland and scotland. it will be hazy in places, but with more sunshine it will be hotter. upper 20s in scotland. look how much of england will be close to, if not above, 30 celsius. 0nto the bank holiday where it is in england, wales and northern ireland, we will start the day with fog patches, particularly in the west. the possibility of showers looks less likely on monday. most of us looking quy likely on monday. most of us looking guy with sunshine. some of us not

quite as hot, but still temperatures reaching to the upper 20s to around 30 degrees. anything above 28.2 will bea 30 degrees. anything above 28.2 will be a record for the late august bank holiday. it will cool down next ina word, in a word, delightful. the sun is shining this weekend and you may be thinking it is perfect weather for a bank holiday bbq, but have you ever wondered how eco—friendly your barbecue is? brea kfast‘s jayne mccubbin is in stonyhurst in lancashire with some tips on how to grill and be green. you have managed to upset everyone in equal measure, meat eaters and non—meat eaters. well done! bravo, me! people love their barbecues and they don‘t love

being lectured to. we are not being anti—meat this morning. there is nothing better if you are a meat eater than saying this sizzling away ona eater than saying this sizzling away on a barbecue, but we are just trying to give people options about what they might need to take on board when they are making those choices in the supermarket. barbecue ben, good morning. who knew we would get people incensed about me, but barbecues are associated with meat, aren‘t they? barbecues are associated with meat, aren't they? they are, but you can have lovely vegetables. in america, vegeta bles have lovely vegetables. in america, vegetables are banned in the barbecue championships. vegetables are banned in the barbecue championshipsm vegetables are banned in the barbecue championships. it is only meat, whereas in the world barbecue association, the british championships, we have meats but also fish, desert, you can offer everything on the barbecue. we are

going to start off with meat. when you are thinking about meat on the barbecue you can be making some ethical choices about what you are buying and how it is cooked. that's right. a lot of the prepacked meats in the supermarket are in those black containers. you want to buy locally farmed meats if you can. the glaze is really important. it is often very sugary so it will quickly burn on the barbecue. you want to make your own. i will to two quick marinades. i have some lovely roland lamah. you put on a dry powder, let that marinade, then put that streak onto the barbecue. i will do an asian onto the barbecue. i will do an asia n style onto the barbecue. i will do an asian style marinades. i have some lovely lamb. a little light soy sauce. then i‘ve got some fresh

ginger. great that into there. also some fresh garlic. so you put this on at the very end in the last couple of minutes. that means it is less likely to burn, so it is less likely to give permissions. it is more sustainable, will give up less emissions. my top tip for a barbecue is unsweetened apple juice. spread on to everything on the barbecue, meat, fish, vegetables, keeps it moist and gives it a lovely cannibalisation. we will see how it is going later on. there are people watching who are saying this is really important, other people saying this isn‘t a serious new story. why is it serious? 2596 of greenhouse gas emissions come from the food industry, from farmers to

disposal. it is about giving people ideas. yes. people have been angry at our melon pizza because melons tend to be fluent in. give us an idea about how you can make the right choices. if you are going to buy a melon, buy a whole melon. the pre—sliced melons are very bad because they have probably been processed in the country of origin. also, by having been cut up already, they will have to be flown. if they are not cutup, they can be transported by ship. it is all about choice, making informed choices. 0ne of the things that are project

wa nted of the things that are project wanted to promote was being informed. we want more people to know more. these are the black trays, a big no—no. know more. these are the black trays, a big no-no. food that comes on these things, they are terrible to where they are produced, we can dispose of them. if you are buying local, the advantages you can be interacting with the farmer. we are directly being able to persuade them how they produce their food. pasture fed meat, so the animals have been outside. that is better on emissions. thank you so much. these have been banned in some countries because of the impact on the environment. hello, ben x commission mark this is looking good. this will not anger any meat eaters. fantastic, lovely pork and lamb,

with my barbecue sauce, home—made. you don‘t need to buy it, you can make it quite easily. tomato base. it is just about choices. that is it from us this morning. we will take a break, headlines after that. thank you. could this be the endgame for spider—man? this week it was announced that the web—slinger won‘t be appearing in any more films alongside his fellow avengers. it‘s after sony, which owns the film rights, and disney, which owns marvel studios, couldn‘t agree a deal to keep spidey in marvel films. so what‘s gone wrong and how has this left fans feeling? with us now is bbc radio 1 film critic ali plumb and two spider—man super fans, zoe kenney and mike capozzola.

welcome to breakfast. for people like me who art is committed to spider—man films, what has happened? essentially, there was a deal between both sunni and disney marvel four or five years between both sunni and disney marvel four orfive years ago between both sunni and disney marvel four or five years ago that allowed spider—man to be in a number of the disney marvel movies, we have also seen him in his own stand—alone films. now deals between both sunni and marvel have broken down, which means we won‘t see tom holland in any of these big expensive movies with marvel anytime soon. what does that mean for spider—man films going forward ? that mean for spider—man films going forward? it is both big deal and not a big deal. if you just like spider—man and you don‘t mind not interacting with the characters from that universe, things will carry on as normal. if you care about the

avengers gang, it is a disappointment because you can no longer connect with that world at large. so way, you are a super fan. you brought their sin. there will still be spider—man films. you brought their sin. there will still be spider—man film5.|j you brought their sin. there will still be spider-man films. i can say from both sides. tom holland, who had such an amazing run, has built incredible relationships with tony stark, so it is sad after such an incredible run with the recent films for it to come to such an abrupt end. at the same time i am quite excited to maybe see and then crossover. that would be incredible. tom holland has said it would be keen to do that. it is quite hard to

see. he is still contracted for two more films. i read someone saying poor old tom holland, will he be ok, but he will be fine because he has two more film5. but he will be fine because he has two more films. i want to go out on the limb and say i think they will sort this out. it matter5 too much to too many people and they are dilating it, so money will be lost. i think they will go forward. i was watching the report and i was i think they will go forward. i was watching the report and i wa5ju5t thinking if we could get spider—man drafted to play for barry, we could make a lot of money! a few people have taken issue with me because i have taken issue with me because i have asked why who are not supporters should care about bury. without wishing to get into trouble with you, why should people care as

long as spider—man is continuing? sony and disney are ultimately businesses and technically rivals, so because spider—man has become the highest grossing movie for sony, disney want more of the share. so wa nt disney want more of the share. so want a commitment from disney. it is sad to see that they are so competitive that they forget about the fans. the fans have had such an uproar that they don‘t want spider—man leaving the mcu. it is sad that they are not taking the fa ns sad that they are not taking the fans into consideration. the fans make their revenue. a lot of people are saying that the integrity of the films has been lost as a result, is that fair? they have to go forward and find a way to work this out. there was a period of time where mick and keith were saying this is the end of the rolling stones. did anyone really think it was the end of the rolling stones? they will fix

thi5. of the rolling stones? they will fix this. let's end on the positive note. that‘s all from us for today. i‘ll be back tomorrow with nina from 6.00am. until then, enjoy the bank holiday weekend. goodbye.
