the night, temperatures are going to drop quite widely across the country and we'll see ice for a few. across parts of scotland, northern ireland, northern england and north wales especially, where hill snow may be an additional hazard. at the moment, some lively showers working their way from west to east, the odd rumble of thunder. some of that bringing heavy rain. for others, a covering of snow. as they clear away from east anglia and the south—east during the second half of the night, showers coming into north wales, northern england, southern scotland and northern ireland. still some gusty winds for some. a few centimetres of snow here and there which may lead to even further tricky conditions. add on to the fact that in the gaps between them, temperatures will drop low enough to go below freezing. so, that's with winds touching 40, may be 50 mph at so, that's with winds touching 40, maybe 50 mph at times around the south and west. we may see temperatures close to freezing, if not below across many northern parts of the uk into tomorrow morning. so, a chilly start to sunday morning. the big picture shows we have an area of low

pressure to the north of us. the rain—bearing weather fronts cleared away but another one is set to push into the south—west later which will strengthen the winds. in between those two, only a few showers dotted around in the morning. then a bit of an icy start for some. some sleet and snow showers still over parts in scotland in particular. a lot of dry and sunny weather through sunday. but as we go into the afternoon, southern and western areas, in particular, the showers are going to start to get going again. the winds not quite as strong as today. coming in from a mainly south—westerly direction. but they will reach gale force across the south—west later on and we may see severe gales around the hebrides and the north west highlands. temperatures, after a chilly, frosty start, it's going to be a rather cool day, 4—8 degrees. another chilly and icy night. some showers around. some hill snow. monday, the main chance of hill snow will be over central and northern parts of scotland. outbreaks of rain back into northern ireland. much of england and wales have a dry and bright day but cloud increasing from the south—east later and we will see outbreaks of rain coming in towards the south—east corner. all linked into this

area of low pressure. this comes with a health warning, how close that will get to the south and east is a bit uncertain but if it does come towards us, a spell of hill snow is possible. at the moment, finely balanced. for the rest of the week, wind picking up, temperatures increasing but the rain will become more extensive.

hello. this is bbc news with lukwesa burak. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment. first, the headlines: boris johnson thanks supporters in tony blair's former seat, sedgefield. you have changed the political landscape, you have changed the conservative party for the better and you have changed the future of oui’ and you have changed the future of our country for the better. nicola sturgeon celebrates her party's election success in scotland, saying the country's seeking a different future to the rest of the uk. rail passengers are urged to check train times ahead of major timetable changes rolling out tomorrow. kelvin and oti. a triumphant kelvin fletcher and oti mabuse raise the coveted glitterball trophy as this year's

strictly come dancing comes to an end. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the deputy leader writer at the sun, olivia utley, and the editor of the political website labourlist, sienna rodgers. lovely to have you here. let's take you through the front pages. the telegraph reports borisjohnson is plotting a dramatic overhaul of whitehall following his election victory to ensure it delivers his agenda. the mail has the same picture that features on the front of the telegraph, borisjohnson celebrating with his girlfriend, carrie symonds, as the exit poll was revealed on thursday night. writing in the observer, jeremy corbyn accepts his personal

responsibility for labour's general election defeat. and the prime minister will repay the trust of the british people by protecting nhs funding in law, that's according to the sunday express. that was a taste of the newspapers. let's start with the mail on sunday. it is that picture, the moment the gamble paid off. yes, what an amazing moment for boris johnson gamble paid off. yes, what an amazing moment for borisjohnson and the team. i wonder how much it was expected. there were some interesting reports today from inside headquarters which suggested they did not know it was going to be as big as this but they made a good job of making sure they got the vote out anyway. what a night. when you say surprised or expected, how did you react to those figures on your screen? i thought it was going to be a big conservative victory. i did not think it would be that big. i

think this is a change of the electoral map as borisjohnson just sat there. a majority of 80, that is the biggest conservative majority we have had in my lifetime. and the biggest majority i remember. i only remember minority governments. so yes, it is so massive. it is still sinking in. we can see from the papers it is sinking in. your reaction to the exit poll?|j papers it is sinking in. your reaction to the exit poll? i was not expecting that, i would not have been surprised by a small conservative majority or a hung parliament, but i think labour activists were looking at the movement in the opinion polls rather than the raw figures in the projection of seats, and seeing that labour seem to be going up and up, they can ten points during the campaign. what was happening after looking at it afterwards, labour we re looking at it afterwards, labour were piling on votes in london where they already had the votes and they we re they already had the votes and they were fine in london. the popular vote labour got in the selection is

higher than ed miliband got. the population has increased. of course, but in terms of popular vote, it is about location and that is something which was underestimated by labour. what do you mean? it is about the fight we can pile up massive majorities in london seats and remain areas but if we are not getting a good geographical spread of labour voters, it is not viable under first past the post. you would need electoral reform for that to work for labour. the sunday telegraph and a revolution planned by the prime minister to guarantee a peoples brexit. what is he planning to do? he is planning an overhaul of whitehall. he thinks it is shocking how no one is ever fired in whitehall, the same civil servant stick around and it is impossible to get rid of them so he will change that. it is incredible, he has the majority to be able to do that. that is one of the many things you cannot do unless you have a massive

majority. that is enormous. he is also talking, also on the sunday telegraph front page, about the possibility downing street will decriminalise nonpayment of the bbc licence fee. we will come to that story in a moment. when you are revolutionising whitehall, surely he may well have to take into account the labour suggestion that you may have some of the power out of london? certainly, john mcdonnell, during the labour campaign, he talked about taking part of the treasury up to the north, the northern powerhouse, putting that into action, and the tory slogan that it seems like was never taken upon. borisjohnson that it seems like was never taken upon. boris johnson having that it seems like was never taken upon. borisjohnson having won a lot of those northern seats will have to do something about that. that would bea do something about that. that would be a good idea. you have got to remember, if you move some of the government up to the north, all of the people who need to be around a government move to the north is well and that would mean investment needed to happen in the north and

thatis needed to happen in the north and that is a great idea. the jobs. having that knowledge of the location and putting that into practice in your work will make a massive difference. i think he might do something like that because he seems to be... we all know boris johnson is big on infrastructure projects. any prime minister interested in the legacy is interested in the legacy is interested in the legacy is interested in infrastructure projects because they carry on after the prime minister is gone and this would fit in well with moving part of the government up to the north. unlike the garden bridge, he would have to carry out that infrastructure project. another promise he is making, again, perhaps taking a labour friendly policy and protecting the nhs. it is interesting all this. the front page of the express. it is interesting. it is the people who say he is a right—wing extremist, this goes against that, as does every speech he has made since becoming prime

minister, very conciliatory, all about uniting the country. people said he was not serious about the nhs but this proves he is serious and he is willing and he wants to listen to labour voters and he wants to bring the country back together again. that is the sort of news we should be seeing. what does that mean? we will have to see how this pans out on the details. he has pledged to spend a lot of money on the nhs but in terms of social care, thatis the nhs but in terms of social care, that is not part of the nhs and it was not a that is not part of the nhs and it was nota campaign that is not part of the nhs and it was not a campaign tag line to say borisjohnson did not present a plan for social care, it is true. he has said he will do it in the budget. cross— party said he will do it in the budget. cross—party are important. he did not want to put his plan before he could have cross—party talks which are so could have cross—party talks which are so important because otherwise social care becomes a political football in every single election. ina lot football in every single election. in a lot of areas, if he goes for this one nation toryism, will he still a few labour policies from their manifesto? listening to labour

voters. adopting their views. we are heading towards the labour side of things. let's finish on the front page of the scottish mail on sunday. a love poem heading to scotland. page of the scottish mail on sunday. a love poem heading to scotlandlj a love poem heading to scotland.” do not know if that will work. the scottish give a clear message both to labour and the tories. the tories lost seven of their 13 seats in scotland and the snp smashed it. it will be really difficult and it will be for any party that gained power in westminster to ignore the fact that the scottish people are repeatedly endorsing the snp and the pressure for a second scottish independence referendum will get more and more intense. it is true andi more and more intense. it is true and i do not deny that scotland will bea and i do not deny that scotland will be a problem for borisjohnson although i think it is worth saying that unionist parties had a higher share of the vote in scotland than the snp, the snp have done well from first past the post. 45% of the vote. yes, the snp do better in a

first past the post system than you do in first past the post system than you doina first past the post system than you do in a referendum. does this directly translate to this independence referendum? is this a gamble for nicola sturgeon? nicola sturgeon has made clear since the result she is a woman on a mission. turnout was up. lots of labour activists in scotland were frankly relying on there being low turnout of snp voters and that did not happen. they are passionate about it, they turned out. we could see civil disobedience if boris johnson, as he says he will do, repeatedly ignored calls for a second referendum. let's turn to the front page of the observer. jeremy corbyn saying he is taking his share of responsibility, but many people have been crying out, when are we going to hear sorry. is this the same thing? i could not believe how lacking in contrition he is. he says it was about the labour brexit policy. polling shows it was not, it

was mostly to do with the leadership ofjeremy corbyn. to keep saying that the system is broken, his ma nifesto that the system is broken, his manifesto was popular but the system is broken, he is not in listening mode at all. luckily, the rest of the labour party, most of them, they are in listening mode and jeremy corbyn will be out by february, so it does not matter what he says.” know there is an event taking place tomorrow withjohn know there is an event taking place tomorrow with john mcdonnell and momentum, kick—starting that reflection process. what will you be reflecting on if there is not even agreement from the leader on what went wrong? there will be a battle within the labour party over the next few months. i hope it goes well and it is conciliatory. there is a big risk it will not be. in terms of this piece from corbyn in the observer, lots of sceptics were calling for him to take responsibility but they will want more from him, a proper apology, recognition it was his personal opinion poll ratings that affected

the results. also the loss of trust. in terms of the labour performance in the selection, we have to be clear that it was the personal unpopularity of germany cut —— jeremy corbyn, the brexit position, but something built over decades, the loss of trust. and succeeding in university towns and big cities but going backwards elsewhere in the country and that is something labour needs to confront. it is amazing how quicklyjeremy corbyn broke down the allegiances of nearly a century in some places, time is totally attached to labour. personally i think it was thejeremy corbyn thought patriotism was a dirty word. populist has become a dirty word as well. yes, but there are lots of times when it feels likejeremy corbyn was anti—britain and in those sorts of times, that does not fly. back to the front page of the sunday telegraph. downing street said to

decriminalise nonpayment of the bbc licence fee. i think this is something that will have quite a lot of cross—party something that will have quite a lot of cross— party consensus. something that will have quite a lot of cross—party consensus. lots of people find it awful to see people who cannot afford the bbc licence fee receiving jail sentences. disproportionately women. exactly. people on the left will agree with that. it is something he hinted that during the campaign. it is interesting, there is another detail, it says that his director of communications has ordered government ministers to go on sofa daytime shows and things like radio five and lbc rather than the today programme specifically. it is continuing their strategy in the campaign and talking to voters who will see morning shows rather than the today programme. the media on both sides has been attacked. more on this in the next edition of the papers at 11:30pm. i hope you join us papers at 11:30pm. i hope you join us for that. that's it for the papers this hour.

olivia and sienna will be back at half—past eleven for another look at the papers. next on bbc news it's click. this video game is one of the biggest crowdfunded projects ever. star citizen has raised neatly £200 million. that's a sizeable chunk of change. but then, it is a game with ambitions to build an entire universe to act as its users' playground. the problem is the game has been in development since 2012 and it's still nowhere near finished.

so, what's going on? even with that mega budget, is this game just too ambitious? marc cieslak has been in search of the brains behind star citizen. star citizen combines elements of a massively multi—player role—playing game, spaceship sim and first—person shooter, all in a vast, persistent universe. thanks, wendy! it has a large, loyalfan base. previously, we could not have done a planet like this before. cheering and applause. when i was a kid, i wanted to be an astronaut. i ended up being a dentist. i always used to fantasise with being a spaceman, and that's what star citizen is. coming up behind you. star citizen is important because it's a chris roberts game. chris roberts started out the wing commander franchise in the ‘90s.

it's almost like he's the george lucas of space games. star citizen came around because chris roberts wanted to create the ultimate space sim that hadn't existed. he'd made wing commander and he wanted to make the biggest follow—up to that. but i don't want to build any old game. i want to build a universe. i want to build a game i always wanted to build, but i didn't have the tools to do until now. so when people then saw it, they saw what he was selling, they saw what he wanted to create, they wanted to invest in that. and invest, they have — so far in excess of $250 million, with $37 million raised in the last year alone. all this for a game which is still in the testing phase and isn't a finished product. star citizen's crowdfunding began back in 2011, with development starting in 2012. since then, the team making the title, cloud imperium games, has grown to 500, with five studios in three different countries. one of which is here,

in los angeles. this is an unusual title in the world of video games because even though the team here is busy still making the game, it is playable and being played by gamers at the moment. this game goes out every three months. but it's, of course, it is very, very early alpha so, to a degree, they're having the exact same experience as somebody that would be working on a game as, like, a qa guy or even as a developer. but this is a game which, from its inception, has proved to be controversial. since the original kickstarter campaign, its scale has dramatically increased, becoming a much bigger game in the process. as the crowdfunding grew, so did the scope. what began as an ode to wing commander gradually grew into this giant persisting universe, and, you know, that's a very different product. as a result of changes to the game, earlier this year, roberts space industries,

a subsidiary of cloud imperium, was taken to court by a backer seeking a refund of almost $4,500 — money he'd spent backing the game. a california judge dismissed the case without prejudice, due to a clause in the star citizen end user license agreement which prevents anyone from taking roberts space industries to court for a refund. the games company says it does issue refunds within a 30—day window. this brings us to the issue that seems to have generated the most headlines for star citizen. ca-ching! money. $250 million sounds like a lot of money, but when you think the movie avatar cost $237 million to make, and most estimates put gta 5 costing $265 million to make, it's not a crazy amount of cash to put into a game. reports in the press have appeared, suggesting micromanagement of certain aspects of the game's development has contributed to star citizen's delays.

we've spoken to several former employees at cloud imperium. all spoke positively of their time making the game, and although many admit that there have been delays, the sheer size of the project seems to be the main reason for its lengthy development time. from sunny southern california to grey, wintry manchester. while development on the game continues, here in manchester, citizencon — which is a convention dedicated entirely to the video game — is kicking off. citizencon is where fans and backers of the game can meet each other, as well as the game's development teams. one of the aspects of the game which has attracted a lot of attention is the ships. there are a plethora of different ships in the game, big and small, that can be purchased with in—game currency, or backers can use real cash, which cloud imperium says goes towards further development. rumours are rife of some backers spending thousands on ships.

most of the people i meet at citizencon have more modest budgets. how much money have you spent so far? it's only about $75—$100. probably invested about £250 into the game. maybe like £60 or something like that. there's always exceptions to the rule, though. yep, that definitely doesn't look friendly! i've spent about $7,900 on the game. run! $7,900?! 7,900 us dollars, yeah. now, we should say that you are a streamer. iam. so this is yourjob — this is your living, isn't it? it is, yeah. we do these crazy battles, like 50 players going to war, sci—fi battles. like, that's what we do. what the...? someday send the back—up! it's here in the midst of citizencon that i catch up with roberts. applause. we last spoke in 2016. star citizen has been in development... that long ago! yeah! for quite some time. it's still being worked on. what's going on? well, i mean, we're trying to build a universe at, like, a level of detail that no—one's done before, and so it's taking,

you know, longer than we were anticipating when we first announced it. there's an awful lot of online negativity around star citizen. why do you think that is? it's easy to be an armchair quarterback or an armchair developer. people aren't used or don't really know how much work goes into making these games. i mean, there's been some, you know, stuff like red dead redemption 2 or — but, you know, that was seven—plus years. it takes time to build games of the sophistication and simulation detail that gamers expect now. i mightjust have a gig that i could use you for. so, what's new? the new planet technology we have, which is much, much, much higherfidelity. we've been working on dynamic weather. you're walking outside, it's like there is slush on your visor, there'll be slush on your canopy, the wind is pushing you around. the other really big thing that we'e showing — the first time we're going through a jump point, or a wormhole. basically, as we carry on, we'll be

opening up more star systems. next year, we've been promised the release of squadron 42, the single—player campaign aspect of the game. but for now, development continues on the main star citizen experience. it seems this game's journey is far from over. that was star citizen marc. now, christmas is nearly here, which traditionally is the time when we all lay off the exercise and pile on the food. not lara, though. she's not waiting until january to get fit. she's getting on the case now, with a little help from a friend. right. i've got my gym kit, i've got my trainers. now it's just time to meet the robot that i've got an appointment with. hello! yep, it's putting me through my paces on the treadmill. the idea here is that i am going to be trained by ai, with a spot of help from pepper here. this bristol robotics lab trial aims to teach a robot the empathy and motivational skill of a human personal trainer. ok, i'm not quite sure what it's got in store for me. think about getting

ready to start running. speed up now and run for one minute. along with reacting to participants' heart rate data and facial expressions whilst they try to build up to running 5k, it considers personality type in its quest to perfect its patter. that robot, to begin with, knows nothing. and then don, ourfitness instructor, he tells the robot, in real—time, "right, now it's time to have a joke" or "now it's time to sympathise" or "now it's time to challenge." and every time he does that, the robot learns from that example. so after a few sessions, the robot then starts suggesting things. the estimated speed of a t rex is 27 miles per hour. i can't go as fast as that! i had to write what kind of behaviours the ideal robotic personal trainer should have, yet still keeping that as simplistic as possible for the robotists

and coders to implement. it's quite unnerving when it leans forward. ifeel like i'm in trouble. the key human aspects in psychology go in to analysing what that client needs at a given time. ten people took part in the trial, some totally at ease with the concept. on the day of a session i would be thinking "ok, well, pepper's standing there, waiting for me." kind of the longer you do this, the kind of — you get used to it a lot more. and probably if i was to run on a treadmill now, i'd be wondering "where's the robot?" they didn't just see it as a tool, as an object. it wasn't just a robot. each of them developed, i would say, a relationship. they would talk to it in different ways. the bot could be trained by different people, giving it different personalities and styles. but the general idea is that the gym of the future could be a very different place. nice work! well done for today! thank you. i hope to see you again soon! goodbye. give me five. oh, maybe not.

ooh, denied! that was lara and pepper, and that's it for the shortcut of click for this week. the full—length version is available for you to watch right now on iplayer. next week, it's the click christmas special, which means tons of serious journalism and sensible clothing. in the meantime, you can contact us social media. we live on facebook, youtube, instagram and twitter at @bbcclick. thanks for watching and we'll see you for clickmas. hello, there. we've got some gusty wind and lively showers at the moment. the showers are mixture of rain, hail, sleet,

snow and a rumble of thunder. this evening some especially lively ones being pushed over england and wales but as they clear, continuing to feed showers in the north and west. parts of north wales, northern england, southern scotland and northern ireland, in particular the showers will contain sleet and snow. a covering of snow over the hills. gusty wind to go with it which may touch 50, 60 mph in one or two places. even with the wind, a cold night, temperatures low enough for icy conditions. north wales, northern england, southern scotland, northern ireland especially. in these areas, one on two showers to begin with. again quite wintry. continuing over central scotland through the day. elsewhere, dry and sunny weather before the showers get going to the south and west later on. wind could touch severe gale force across the far north—west of scotland, especially around the hebrides. gails developing to the south—west later. still quite a windy day across the country. still quite a cool one, between two and five celsius across the north, hitting nine or ten in the south.
