discuss how to approach next season and work out what competitions we will do and go from there. that's all from sportsday. back to you now. tonight sees the announcement of ‘building of the year‘ — the stirling prize for architecture. last year, the award went to the bloomberg building, a huge office development in london that cost more than a billion pounds. but this year, the bookies' favourite is very different, a small estate of council houses in norwich. and there are five other amazing buildings in the running. let's ta ke let's take a look at all the nominations now. platform six and seven. i would nominations now. platform six and seven. iwould much nominations now. platform six and seven. i would much rather work here than the old station! it is just

lovely. the roof is a piece of art in itself. you cannot see it from the outside at all, you enter the building and this remarkable space is revealed. we have something which is almost like an artwork that has come out of the ground. was there a moment you thought, what have i done? several dark days! me and my partner have both said since moving in that we are here for the long run. it is brilliant. our correspondent david sillito is at the roundhouse in london for us now not long to go now until we find out the winner?

i special programme this evening happens at 8:30pm and we are going to run very quickly through those six nominees forjoined by daisy and oliver and not much time, six nominees, let's start with the first we saw in that little film, london bridge station daisy, it was not the easiest of stations and it has been transformed. they have excavated into the viaduct, kept the session running and made a massive new coi'icoui’se running and made a massive new concourse that allowed it to up the passenger numbers incredibly. concourse that allowed it to up the passenger numbers incrediblym concourse that allowed it to up the passenger numbers incredibly. is it architecture or engineering? passenger numbers incredibly. is it architecture or engineering7m passenger numbers incredibly. is it architecture or engineering? it is engineering! personally i do not think an architecture prize is quite what should be awarded! and this opera house, a stable block from the outside but inside something

different. this is architecture, a beautiful little music box. exquisite, the choice of materials, and quite a rough and ready sense of being outdoors. nothing like an ordinary opera house. and the buildings had to be tuned in order for people to hear their voices? this has been close collaboration with the acoustics. the yorkshire sculpture park, and this is the visitor centre. i am a yorkshireman soi visitor centre. i am a yorkshireman so i have to stand up for this but i think it is beautifully nestled in the landscape for the it also has a clever environmental mechanism that means you do not need air conditioning in the gallery. quite a remarkable project. it is very simple but very welcoming. not at

all stuck up. i would want to have a cup of tea there! another in the landscape is almost hidden building, a distillery. this is show off architecture! it is like the teletubbies going hard on the scotch! it is near inverness for the undulating grassy mounds with a very theatrical factory underneath. undulating grassy mounds with a very theatrical factory underneathm undulating grassy mounds with a very theatrical factory underneath. it is an extraordinary group and one of the most complex roof structures in the most complex roof structures in the world and a showpiece for the brand. it shows what architecture is and what engineering is. the architect who first exposed pipes really having fun and for me it is a project of a decade ago. fun with pipes! in previous years there have been favourites but never quite such

a runaway favourite as we have today, a bunch of council houses in norwich, why is everyone so excited? it is such a rare species defined proper council housing, secure, social rents and built directly with the council without the developer. it's a beautiful series of streets. i work a lot with communities and they always say everyone wants their front door on the street and even though they have flats they work magic by stacking them so there are multiple front doors. and all the back gardens share a collective space. and finally the court house, i love this, entirely made from cork and almost like a lego building that these blocks all just and almost like a lego building that these blocks alljust piled on top of each other and beautiful to be in. it has a very low carbon footprint over its lifetime. it feels like a kind of dug out when

you go in. there is a strong thread running through all of this of sustainability. for many of them, there is a focus on materials and texture. i think these are buildings that you want to be in. compared to la st that you want to be in. compared to last year when it was £1 billion office building, this is a good year to celebrate social housing and send that political message. and we will be able to tell you live in a special programme beginning at 8:30pm tonight. you can see it all here tonight on the news channel, the stirling prize for architecture. so just to repeat for that that coverage is on a special programme right here in the bbc news channel at 8:30pm tonight. now some breaking

news, the comments have approved a motion proposed by the leader of the commons jacob rees—mogg for parliament to be prorogued for the mps have agreed to those arrangements. which should begin later on tonight the comments will reset next monday, all this of course in preparation for the state opening of parliament and the queen's speech. so the commons has agreed that there will be an adjournment and progression will ta ke adjournment and progression will take place later tonight with the commons resetting again next monday. all this in preparation for the queen's speech. time for a look at the weather news now the weather at the moment is capable of changing several times during the date from sunshine to showers and back again. that will continue for some time longer in the uk. going through tonight the showers are towards the western side of the uk but some moving back across south wales and the south of england later

in the night. temperatures for many just dipping down into single figures and it stays quite blustery. tomorrow some early showers, south wales and southern england, heavy and sundry in places. plenty of scattered showers elsewhere and they keep on coming. gusts of around a0 miles an hour in places relatively few showers making their way all the way to the eastern side of the uk. so more in the way of sunny spells and fewer showers to be found here but for all of us feeling cooler on wednesday compared with today.

you're watching beyond 100 days. three weeks to brexit and the negotiating positions are hardening. downing street says angela merkel told them the chances of a deal were "overwhelmingly unlikely". berlin says, not true, the chancellor would always leave the door open. the war of words is getting louder and more personal. donald tusk says boris johnson doesn't want a deal. michael gove says the british people have run out of patience. faced with a delaying, disruptive and denying tactics of the opposition we say on behalf of the i7.a million, enough, enough, we need to leave. the white house has prevented a key witnesses from giving evidence to the democrats impeachment inquiry.
