a re showers are affecting some western and north—western in particular parts of the country, through the course of the night. for many of us it will be a largely dry night. clear spells. temperatures early in the morning, 5— eight in the south, a bit colder in eastern and northern scotland, a real frost a bit colder in eastern and northern scotland, a realfrost in a bit colder in eastern and northern scotland, a real frost in the glans, where you would expect it. this is what it looks like monday. they were the front approaching us. way towards the south—west. that means the bulk of the looking fine on monday. certainly england and wales, apart from the stray shower, it looking mostly bright or even sunny, whereas across the north of the island, dumfries and galloway, maybe into the lake district and yorkshire, they will be some showers around, probably one or two around the western isles as well. 11 in the south, that is mild. nine in the lowlands. we are watching this weather front, lowlands. we are watching this weatherfront, approaching lowlands. we are watching this weather front, approaching us lowlands. we are watching this weatherfront, approaching us later on monday. that's also spells some
11:31 pm
u nsettled on monday. that's also spells some unsettled weather heading our way for christmas eve itself. with that comes another pulse of some milder hour. look how that mild there has been spreading to other parts of europe. it has been really mild through the continent, notjust here. even in the north, in scandinavia, as far north as finland, off the edge of the screen, temperatures are higher than they should be. back home, this is tuesday. cloud, occasional rain, i do not think it will be a deluge, but it will be pretty damn sometimes. drier in the north on tuesday, on christmas eve. in the evening, christmas eve, it will dry out. that takes us into wednesday. christmas day itself is actually expected to be the best day of the whole week. sunshine in the forecast, perfect walking weather to walk off those calories, which i am sure will be all consuming —— we will all be consuming in huge quantities on wednesday itself. so a changeable christmas week, no snow, but at least we get the sunny
11:32 pm
weather on christmas day. hello. this is bbc news with lukwesa burak. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment. first, the headlines: chelsea's match at tottenham is marred after the crowd were warned three times over the tannoy about racist behaviour. toni came to me and told me that he was listening in the crowd monkey noises, and obviously myjob as the captain was to come straight to the ref and report it. tottenham say any form of racism is completely unacceptable and will not be tolerated. an investigation is under way. australia's firefighters in the state of new south wales are still battling to bring more than 100 blazes under control. the queen attends a church service in sandringham, while the duke of edinburgh remains
11:33 pm
in hospital receiving treatment for a pre—exisiting condition. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are benedicte paviot from france 2a, and martin bentham of the evening standard. benedicte paviot is also president of the foreign press association. hello to you both. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. an investigation into makeshift sharia courts being held in prisons is the top story in the times. the sport pages of the daily mail focus on the alleged racism during the tottenham and chelsea match earlier. an 800 calorie a day liquid diet can beat type 2 diabetes according to the express. the guardian says northern leaders have
11:34 pm
attacked borisjohnson over the recent flooding, saying that the funding system is rigged against the area. and the star says the wet weather is set to continue through christmas. 0h, oh, dear! let's return to the front pages. do you want to kick us of with that one, benedicte? this is a times investigation and it is really worrying news for the general public and also security experts looking at this. this has been a growing problem for some time, islamist extremism in britain's prisons, who are holding makeshift sharia trials, circulating banned books and openly grooming young inmates. this is according to one testimony amongst others cited in this article on the front page of the times, a former prisoner who claims he took part in
11:35 pm
these sharia courts and punishment beatings also in elton keynes and her man the prison would heal. this is now wanting security experts to have a review of terrorist radicalisation in prisons across britain. this is off the back of the london bridge attack, osman khan, and he was a category a prisoner freed on licence, we will remember, who succeeded in murdering two people and injuring five others at london bridge before being killed by london bridge before being killed by london police. of course this is not a new problem, as the times points out, and richard walton, the former head of scotland yard's counterterrorism command, and ian ackley sin, he wrote the report in 2016 saying that islamist extremism injails wasa 2016 saying that islamist extremism in jails was a growing problem 2016 saying that islamist extremism injails was a growing problem —— ian atkinson. whose name do we see linked here? hate preacher, anjem
11:36 pm
choudary. he has affected and inspired and affected so many people and this is extremely worrying. how do you combat radicalisation... real expertise is needed, because the last thing we want is for them to be found radicalised in prisons. the questions after london bridge, talking about rehabilitation in prisons. how do you do it? it can be difficult and clearly some of the people who have gone in there, we don't know what happened with london bridge and that person whether he flipped in the last minute after coming out or not, but more generally there is a problem and ian aitchison reported in 2016 and he concluded at the time there was a lot of naivete in the prison management and a lack of structure for dealing with it. he recommended 69 recommendations, of which quite a large number never were 69 recommendations, of which quite a large number neverwere implemented, one was to have a complete
11:37 pm
counterterrorism command in the prison service devoted to dealing with the 220 or so terrorist prisoners in the prison system at any one point. that didn't happen, so any one point. that didn't happen, so the responsibility is divided... the people in charge have very various other responsibilities and also he has argued there wasn't sufficient expertise in addressing this problem and clearly, as you've just said, it's an ongoing issue because we've got more and more people... 0r because we've got more and more people... ora continuing flow of people... ora continuing flow of people. some are coming out and some are being convicted, and those who are being convicted, and those who are coming out, hopefully they have been deradicalised, some home and haven't been —— have and haven't been. there are serious people who subscribe to a pervasive and dangerous ideology. it is clearly not helpful if you have people coming out at some point who haven't
11:38 pm
been deradicalised and are going to been deradicalised and are going to be on the streets. you just don't know. you can't supervise them 100% of know. you can't supervise them 10096 of the time. britain isn't the only country facing this. we're not even talking about the people returning from syria or other countries. a growing problem and it needs to be addressed. the back page of the guardian, an incident that broke out this evening at a very big match, we are talking some big games, big teams in the premier league here. yes, tottenham and chelsea and the chelsea player alleging that he has been greeted with monkey noises from the crowd... not greeted, but abused with monkey noises from the crowd, the game was stopped and three warnings were broadcast. this incident in itself, if substantiated, hopefully the perpetrator can be identified and
11:39 pm
dealt with with a lifetime than, to be frank, from the club. unfortunately it's not the only incident of its type. we had another one involving a tottenham fan last year being convicted over throwing a ba na na year being convicted over throwing a banana skin at an arsenal player in another big match. earlier this month... chelsea fans abusing raheem sterling when playing for manchester city and tammy abraham, chelsea forward , city and tammy abraham, chelsea forward, abused on social media. a few incidents at lower league games as well. unfortunately it's a problem that is still around and very visible. benedicte, we spoke to an eloquent contributor this evening who attended that game and he took this wider. he said it's notjust about football, this is perhaps also reflecting what's going on in society. what do you think of that? of course, a football audience will be made up of people, as all
11:40 pm
corporations and organisations are, but is it a particular small group of individuals who are completely out of touch and not realising the consequences, not just of touch and not realising the consequences, notjust for them personally but for their clubs, clu bs personally but for their clubs, clubs that they adore. i think it is good it gets this kind of national prominence, because it could be drowned out and it's important it gets the prominence and there needs to bea gets the prominence and there needs to be a comprehensive attitude to it and it is good it is called out and matches are halted and it is dealt with as quickly as possible. to go to your point, it would seem illogical that somebody who does this ina illogical that somebody who does this in a football ground is going to be... if somebody does in there that's the only time they might do it. we have evidence of incidents occurring in society with people being convicted of it and people complaining and reporting such
11:41 pm
crimes to the police as well. clearly it's not an isolated incident at all. turning to the front page of the guardian. benedicte, can you do the flood defences piece? alas, more misery and woe. more than 80 flood warnings issued by... nearly 100 flood warnings issued across england. also, alas, people need to watch the weather forecast because there's more rain on its way on tuesday so more rain on its way on tuesday so more misery. either new homes or existing homes, and people who are enduring this, water seeps into all kinds of places. how do we make our homes more resistant? that is definitely an issue. some areas like around maidstone that have been very badly hit. it is building on floodplains and the pressure of building more homes. this story is
11:42 pm
about flood defences for the north and places like fish like in doncaster, which suffered during the election campaign, and part of the problem is flood defences are prioritised in areas with greatest population though if you are a village not in a great area of population you tend to be last in the queue for flood defences and here they are calling for something more comprehensive... they want an emergency system. let's go to the times and one million and surgeries where there is no female gp. they aren't filling those places. this goes to the problem where there are enough gps. there are in fact more female doctors than male, apparently, across the country but it says some in some areas as many as three out of four gps in some areas as many as three out offourgps are in some areas as many as three out of four gps are male. lots of them work part—time and lots are women,
11:43 pm
so work part—time and lots are women, so there's an issue there but the long and the short of it is there just aren't enough gps. if that's the case, sometimes women who want a female mp won't have access to one. does it say why they aren't filling those posts, benedicte? why aren't they training? no it, it doesn't, but we know there's been a fall already... by 6% of doctors, and on page four, column one, we would find out from the times. this is an example of a free to access, ailing, admired and wound the world national health service but let's remember many people are going to a&e —— admired around the world. part of the problem is the growing population. secondly, growing demand and more people going to gps with
11:44 pm
all sorts of things. we've had quite all sorts of things. we've had quite a number of retirements from gps. you've been losing numbers of gps, plus you've been gaining demand. and gps want the lifestyle balance. lots of people can do all sorts ofjobs. the guardian, malnutrition over 60s is climbing. why? it is a number of things. number one, it is climbing. why? it is a number of things. numberone, it can is climbing. why? it is a number of things. number one, it can be attributed to poverty. but also, equally, it is also often people, the vast majority, 93%, live at home and their malnourishment often goes unnoticed. christmas, so says the guardian, is an ideal opportunity to spot the signs a loved one might struggling to eat enough to keep themselves well and they might have lost a sense of proportion about that. also, public health messages
11:45 pm
also don't appear to be targeting that age group. a lack of ability to shop, eat and drink at home without help and people sometimes... for bereavement start not eating and suddenly before they know it, they are malnourished. the actual figure it says has trebled in the last decade. that seems slightly surprising. maybe it is a diagnosis then, this is the number is diagnosed, so maybe this is a problem that has always existed to an extent. maybe a bit under the radar. shall we scoop ahead? we are going to stay with the guardian, we haven't got long, but something to cheer people up, the front page of the guardian and it is at stonehenge. you were disappointed with this photo because they are not edgy enough, very middle—class, as you describe, and not sufficiently pagan and generally dissolute, or whatever you think they should be. i can see what you're saying! i'm going to accentuate the positive,
