a 97—year—old second world war veteran has taken to the skies to mark battle of britain day. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are giles kenningham and lynn faulds wood. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. as borisjohnson prepares to meet eu leaders in brussels tomorrow — he's written in the daily telegraph that he ‘passionately believes he can get a new brexit deal‘ — and says he's working ‘flat out‘ to avoid a no—deal departure. according to the i newspaper — as mrjohnson bids to ‘save brexit on october 31st‘ a minister has hinted that the transition period could be extended by two years to hit the brexit date.

on the front page of the metro: the eu‘s guy verhofstadt has branded the prime minister‘s comparison of britain to the incredible hulk as ‘infantile‘ — asking — is the eu supposed to be scared of this? a daily mail investigation has found that hundreds of thousands of crimes are allegedly being written off by the police within only 2a hours of being reported — as overstretched forces try to prioritise their resources. on the front page of the financial times: saudi arabia has tried to reassure oil markets that full oil and gas production will resume quickly — following the attack on two of its oil facilities which has forced 5% of global output to be halted. the times reports on warnings from iran that it‘s prepared for ‘fully—fledged‘ war after the unitedstates accused it of launching the drone attacks on the saudi oil sites. the guardian leads on figures it has analysed showing the increasing number of cases in which vulnerable children

are linked to "county lines" drug gangs. the paper also has a photograph of england‘s cricketers celebrating their 135—run victory at the oval to deny australia a series win in the ashes. headed today polymer crunch with eu boss, boris declares except deal is within our grasp —— grasp. boss, boris declares except deal is within our grasp —— graspli boss, boris declares except deal is within our grasp -- grasp. i do hope so. within our grasp -- grasp. i do hope so. i‘ve had enough. we could have done something three years ago. i think that we will end up doing it. week could leave the eu but stay in the common market with 50% of our trade. but that would be rewriting the withdrawal agreement. a bit better than the deal, possibly. something in the sunday times about

the erg. i think they said they will soften because there is a choice i'iow. soften because there is a choice now. do you want to get out or you may not get out whatsoever if you collapsed things and ends up with a jeremy corbyn administration so it is focusing the mines. a lot of people up attacking boris but having said all that, he people up attacking boris but having said allthat, he is people up attacking boris but having said all that, he is part of the problem during all of these negotiations. we have been playing a hand. he has got to keep his cards close to his chest. it is a game of poker. the problem under the administration if you have one cabinet minister saying we currently without a deal and the other saying that we should. of course everybody realises that crashing out with no deal is terrible but you have got to make the eu think we will go to the wire. part of the problem under may was that she —— they knew we would never walk away. because there was a red line dropped in at an early

stage. we have to reach an agreement now and on the one and you have believers who think they have one does make the leavers. —— the leavers. there needs to be a big body of work done by the government to try and bring the country back together if we do get through this first initial stage because it has been such a fracture i think with boris, we have got to... this could go on forever. we have heard the transition period may come on __g° the transition period may come on ——go on for a few years. just by coming out and i hope staying in the

common market means we will start deals over the irish backstop and the money, the eu say we still owe them all the money. the longer we stay in, the less we will oh, won‘t we? the times, johnson called michael gove a bit cracked after the leadership betrayal. are you aware of these entities that grew after the referendum ? of these entities that grew after the referendum? there was a huge psychodrama which to some extent still goes on after the fallout of david cameron losing the referendum and relationships between michael gove and david cameron fundamentally broke down and then there was an added twist of michael gove stabbing cameron in the back. this has been coming out of cameron‘s book which will no doubt heightened tensions, some will say, at number ten.

obviously that relationship has not been the same and to some extent, michael gove is lucky he is in the cabinet given what he did. michael gove is lucky he is in the cabinet given what he didm michael gove is lucky he is in the cabinet given what he did. it kind of stabbed pm johnson and mounted his own challenge which he then lost it obviously no love lost but how on earth... there are so many divisions, how the heck are you going to do that? pm johnson, he has got to watch his language, he was being viewed as a leper after the brexit vote. that is a terrible word to use. he has got to watch his language and behave like a prime minister. some relationships are probably never going to recover. element i think so. assurances were given that were not kept. there was an administration... of course, it

is sad there has been a personal breakdown of relationships as well. iran it is ready forfully breakdown of relationships as well. iran it is ready for fully fledged warand iran it is ready for fully fledged war and this is after the us said it was iran who was responsible for the drone attacks on the saudi oil facilities rather than the houthi rebels backed by iran in yemen. this is terrifying on so many levels. drones are very easily purchased and these are big drones that can carry horrible weaponry. you think if they have sent ten drones in and taken out half of the saudi 's' oil production, apparently oil is about $60 a barrel at the moment and it could go up to a hundred... oil prices have now jumped could go up to a hundred... oil prices have nowjumped 20% in light of what has happened. trump just tweeted they will release oil reserves.

this is on his twitter feed this is on his twitterfeed but this is on his twitter feed but i don‘t believe it is his language was not based on the attack on saudi arabia which may have an impact on oil prices, i have organised the release of oil in an amount sufficient to keep oil supplies. the oil pipeline is currently in the permitting process in texas and various other states. there will be more oil available to make up for the shortfall. that is the... he thought he could look like a hero.|j don‘t think he wrote that point. but it gets the point across that america won‘t allow the markets to be too disrupted if he can avoid it. it shows the power of twitter, being able to get out and reassure markets straightaway. what about the other tweets that he put out that day that

didn‘t reassure markets? tweets that he put out that day that didn't reassure markets? a quick look at the front page of the mirror. rod stewart, i have beaten cancer. he reveals hisjoy after a secret three—year struggle. the fact that he kept it quiet is more unusual these days. that he kept it quiet is more unusualthese days. it is that he kept it quiet is more unusual these days. it is unusual because somebody didn't leak it to the press which often happens. in 2002 i helped with the cancer foundation. we realised we weren't very good at cancer in this country. compared to europe. the data that came out last week shows that we are still down there. the top six countries they looked out, britain was the bottom and we used to be bottom with denmark but now that has ove rta ke n bottom with denmark but now that has overtaken us. the point the article makes is when a public figure does

go out, get checked. just be careful. look at your family history, that is the most important thing. staying with the daily mirror, gareth thomas has revealed that he tested positive for hiv. he will work with prince harry to stop the spread. is quite haunting. gareth thomas forced to come out and make this confession after he says he was facing potential lack mail on these issues. a reporter had been round to his parents house. it will have a rally to his support after he has come out. prince william, prince harry has tweeted support as has jeremy corbyn. he has turned something which was quite personal into a positive story. is he the first sportsman to come out? the first sportsman to come out? the first rugby star to come out.

remember princess diana. she went to hospitals and hug aids patients it was a major thing. they are continuing that legacy. was a major thing. they are continuing that legacylj was a major thing. they are continuing that legacy. i think that is great. to turn it round from something that would have been put out there without his permission. when he's eyes were filled with tears, he didn't want to come out with that but the likes of prince harry coming out, it will make him realise it is not the devastating thing that he thought it was and actually, people who have had aids for a long time, you can live a normal life. that's what they are saying, fingers crossed. ethical bbc will overta ke saying, fingers crossed. ethical bbc will overtake netflix, says lord hall. he says he will be making a provocative statement in cambridge

on thursday. netflix is a massive disruptive force and people are not watching tv in the same linear way as they used to most of the time. they are watching anything they want when they want to watch it which is the way the world has gone now but i do think he is making... the word ethical would never be in any article i had ever written because people don‘t know what it means. article i had ever written because people don't know what it meansm can mean so many people don't know what it meansm can mean so many things to so many people. what would you pick?|j people. what would you pick?” thought he might want to call it the intelligent bbc. i don‘t know... i would talk to your company and what word should you use? people like me, what word should you use instead of ethical because that doesn‘t explain what we wanted to do. what is the logic of this argument? i don't think people are going to make viewing choices raced on ethical

considerations. the wider argument is...| considerations. the wider argument is... i mean i think netflix has disrupted the market, as has amazon and bbc are trying to make catch up and bbc are trying to make catch up and other companies was not if you speak to production companies, people making documentaries, their first port of call is netflix because they get more money for it and it is less bureaucratic so i'm not sure... he is trying to in his own way disrupt the market. everybody is trying to find something that they can do that other people can‘t do. what makes us unique? dallas campbell. so nice to have you watching. he says he is enjoying watching us a stream live on the bbc iplayer so there stop he can‘t do that on netflix. ——so there. what do you need to be live anymore? hopefully news. exactly. breaking
