make the system easier, so to make the system easier, so instead of regulating these fair bundles, you are creating or regulating fare levels and we think thatis regulating fare levels and we think that is much better, and it will allow for say pay as you go, that london commuters benefit from, with a weekly cap, but also season tickets, not everyone lives a monday— friday nine to five life, but the ticketing system does not accept that. we think it needs to be broken down and built back up again and we are very encouraged that the government has started fares trials on one network, and has set up a fund to pay for these trials and also on gtr in the south—east, looking at part—time working, so we need to rebuild the system rather than apply a sticking plaster when it needs major surgery. if it is broken down, who will win and lose? somebody has to subsidise someone somewhere.

and lose? somebody has to subsidise someone somewhere. that is right. this has spent a long time on the two difficult pile in government perhaps for that very reason. it will not be easy and it will take time to do. but that should not stop us time to do. but that should not stop us from doing it because what could happen for example is the majority affairs, because we have done a consultation together with transport focus and we have built up our own proposals on the basis of that consultation and we found the majority of people would probably pay a little less but some people may pay more. but then what the government could do is they could use the extra revenue that is created from getting more passengers on the railway to offset that extra cost for those passengers, so they may in effect not pay any more. what we don't want to see is the hundreds of millions of pounds in the railway system be taken away from the investment that is required and this year, we are putting 1000 extra services, a thousand new carriages,

replacing half the nation's feed by the mid—20205. the money to pay from that has to come from somewhere. as an industry we are ready to work with government to reform the system, to get more people on the railway which is environmentally friendly as well, but also to sort out the system so people know it's easier to use and better value. thank you so much. now the weather. today is a taster of what we can expect through the coming week. wet and windy conditions dominate. this afternoon the strongest of the winds will be ahead of this band of rain. head over it is essentially dry but there isa over it is essentially dry but there is a lot of cloud around. behind it the winds start to ease for northern ireland and parts of scotland and it will brighten up here as the days goes on but starting to feel fresher. away from there, temperatures wildly in double figures. very mild for the time of year. this evening our band of rain

continues to was the south and east taking with it the strongest of the winds. lighter winds further north, still a few showers which could pose an ice risk first thing on sunday is here temperatures will drop lower. where we keep the wind and rain, temperatures not dropping away so far. sunday that clears down to was the south and east. another band of rain structuring through wales, clearing the midlands and eventually lincolnshire. a blustery day and starting to feel fresher. hello this is bbc news. the headlines: prime minister, boris johnson, says it's an "important first step", as iran admits shooting down the ukranian passenger plane, killing all 176 people on board. they say they mistook it for a cruise missile. in ukraine, questions over why the plane was allowed to take off from tehran, anger over iran's initial denials.

back to business in stormont. the northern ireland assembly has resumed for the first time since the collapse of power—sharing three years ago. keir starmer, the shadow brexit secretary, officially launches his bid to become the next leader of the labour party. now on bbc news, it's time for click. it's 2020. we're in las vegas and that can only mean one thing. welcome to ces.

are you ces ready? featuring 180,000 people. from 160 countries, wth 4,000 companies, and one pizza making robot. it's ces! goodness, he sounded excited, didn't he? so he should. yeah absolutely, it is exciting. we only got ourselves out of the blooming studio this year overlooking the actual show. that's ces just over there, hello! oh yeah! it is quite something and we have for you the latest announcements from here as well as getting our hands on some of the most exciting looking gadgets

that have made their way to las vegas. in fact, spencer, you've been in the water with one of them, haven't you? certainly have, yes. there's water in las vegas and here it is. this is lake las vegas, an oasis in the desert. this is stacey and this is the hydrofoiler xe1, it's an electric bike that you peddle on the water. of course it is. as you pedal, the electric motor turns the propeller which pulls you forward and the hydrofoils underneath act like aircraft wings and lift the whole caboodle out of the water. it is the same sort of thing you may have seen on racing yachts. it looks manageable doesn't it? how hard can it be really?

and as long as you peddle hard enough at the start, you can get lift you need and are sailing! they said, "do you want to go for a bike ride in las vegas?" and i said "yeah, why not?" they also said, "do you want to go for a trip on lake las vegas?" and i realised they meant at the same time. bleep. and here is the problem. until you get the hang of it, there's quite a bit of this. and this. oh dear, oh no, no. the trick, apparently, is if you feel the bike starting to over balance, steer into the tilt but lean the other way. and when that doesn't work, try not to swear on camera. i was hoping to show you more

of my successful rides but you've already seen all of them. before the winter water temperatures got the better of me. so please watch stacey being too cool for school while i tell you that experienced riders can get up to 13 miles an hour and the battery gives you an hour of ride time and the price is nearly $7,500. so if you buy one, find some warmer water and practice, practice, practice. she makes it look so easy. i nearly had it, i swear i nearly had it. ijust need a couple more goes but right now, i'm absolutely frozen. that looked difficult. how was it? it was difficult and cold and wet. and cold. but here's the thing right, if you go out there, everyone will tell you that their thing is amazing and spoiler alert...

it's not! so we want to test as much as is humanly possible and someone who has tested more than is humanly possible if you ask me is lara. i've tried and some of the things i found most exciting this year have been for the smart home. here are a few of my top picks. there are always plenty of smart home devices at ces but some of them are a bit more creative than others. it is called wheelme and the idea is that you can summon your furniture using your voice or an app to do so remotely. naturally, we figured that we could have some fun with this so if you are trying it all round the house, this is all thanks to some smart coasters that are under here. wheelme are currently a prototype stage and they are eventually going to be miniaturised to around 25 millimetres but right now,

i've got what i need just here in front of me. i going to take that, that, these and it is time to do a spot of cooking. let's get started. where is that smart bin? it automatically opens and you can pop your rubbish inside. the sensor inside will be able to tell when it's full so it can automatically seal the bags or you can do it manually like this. now i can take out the sealed bag and once i close this, the new bag will move into place by itself. it will keep doing this until you've used up all 25 bags that are in the cylinder. i felt like this was a little small for a kitchen but the company is working on a larger version too. 0k, i'lljust leave that to cook for a moment. oh no, i've spilt some coffee. luckily, we've got

a robotic vacuum to hand. what a coincidence. narwhal has already mapped the room, so it is now time to mop the room. you can set it up with a choice of diffrent programmes to use and in the future, it will actually be to do just spot cleaning. whilst it does have a seriously hefty pricetag, what makes this device different to similar ones is its ability to self clean. once it's made its way back to its base station, there is one section of clean water and another section that will become dirty water after those mops have been washed. it will need to do that after every 30 square metres of cleaning so that really is a fair bit. that is quite a lot of goes around the kitchen. that looks ready but i could do with actually taking this to the show floor. luckily, i've got this lunchbox which actually heats up. heatbox uses steam technology to heat the food inside.

this section here is where the food goes. it is sealed with this bit of rubber to stop either the food leaking out of the bag or any of the water seeping into the food. the makers have considered the fact that this may not be enough food for some people and that is why these removable trays are easy to just stack up. you can have a few of them and just keep swapping them in to warm up all the food. 0k, there's lunch. i shall warm that up again when i get there. time to head back to the show floor. i brought some lunch. this was all pretty easy. all i needed to do was put a spot of water underneath the food and then in ten minutes, it was piping hot. lovely. oh sorry, i didn't actually make you any. charming. there is a pizza making robot here apparently, it makes 300 an hour, or as i call it, just about enough. tell you what — let's look at some of the really big announcements from this week's show.

is that alright? not bad. ces loves a new tv but the challenge has often been persuading the rest of us that we actually need them. samsung went big on 8k qled displays, also embracing ai to upscale lower—res content. the edges on this tv are so thin, it is being described as almost... in fact, 99% of what you're looking at there is just screen. but if you're struggling to understand why anybody would actually care that the frame is just a little bit smaller, then at least this one has something very different about it. samsung sero not only works horizontally like a normal tv but also vertically. take a look at this. it may be only 4k but it will mirror your phone and is being considered a future concept based on our changing habits and how we consume media. still a limited amount of content

in the shape though. still seems better the old way. meanwhile, lg display was suggesting a more uses for its transparent and flexible 0led screens. in an aircraft for example, in a car and in the living room. here is the follow—up to the rollup tv we saw two years ago. this one rolls down. what will they think of next? interestingly, the original roll up one it will go on sale later this year for $60,000. the pitch is that if you have a really small living room, you can maximise the space by rolling the screen out of the way. although if you're paying $60,000 for a screen, i suspect you don't have a small living room. better known for their consoles than their cars, sony unexpectedly unveiled an electric concept car.

the vision—s features 33 different advanced sensors, multiple widescreen displays and immersive 360 audio. don't expect one to be whizzing down any road with one anytime soon though, as the japanese giant hasn't revealed plans to sell the car to the public. back to samsung which unveiled its new beeping robot assistant called bawl—e. it is a small robot that follows you around and can act as your personal trainer, and apparently captures special moments with its camera. it can also take chores off your hand by controlling smart appliances... can't follow you up the stairs though. there's been competition here at ces to see who can unveil the wackiest robot. and chinese firm poodo tech showed off a cat faced weighter for ferrying around meals in busy restaurants. the robot makes a soft "meow" when it reaches

its hungry customers and will even react to petting. but petting for too long though and it will get annoyed at you for destracting it from itsjob. and finally, from the company that developed the vegetarian burger that bleeds, impossible foods has created a pork substitute. it is made from a substance called heme, which is a molecule found in some plants and meat. made in a lab that gives a texture that resembles actual meat, the company hopes it help break into pork—loving china. the first product to feature the new food, the impossible sausage, is launching in the us this week. yes! one of the hottest areas over the last few years has been streaming with loads of new servicesjoining netflix in the battle for eyeballs. here at ces, a pretty new idea has been

unveiled. quibi is a streaming service specifically for mobiles. it is going to be a subscription service offering high production value films presented in bite—size ten minute chunks to be watched on the go. but most interestingly, each film will be full—screen, no matter which way up you hold your phone and no matter when you switch between orientations. and instead of getting a compromised, cropped view when watching portrait mode, you get different shots specifically chosen by the direct, that work in that orientation. each quibi film is basically to make films running in parallel with the ability to switch between them at any moment. this was the main aim of the founders meg whitman and ex—disney chairman and dreamworks founder, jeffrey katzenberg. we knew for our use case that people

are on the go. we think our use case is 7am to 7pm at night. maybe get on the bus and are holding your phone in portrait and you want to watch something in landscape and you get off and then you want to... we knew we had to go seamlessly from portrait to landscape and we wanted to be full—screen video because a lot of video on your phone isn't full—screen video today it hasn't been shot with the right aspect ratio. so we got together and we said, we've got to shoot this content differently. we've got to shoot the film a little differently but then we have to render it and we have to be able to do this portrait to landscape transition without taking down tremendous battery power or tremendous bandwidth. and so there was a technical challenge and a challenge around how the film was going to be shot. it is a little bit of the magic ofjeffrey and i coming together to found this company because, he knows the creative side and i know the tech side and we were able to do something that no—one has done before. apparently you're filming a lot in 8k, and that's how you can get good resolution portrait cropped footage. that is really expensive isn't it?

we didn't set out here to cut corners. we set out here to deliver people something that's unlike anything they've ever seen before. and that has a pricetag abojut it. you know, it's not user—generated content which we admire, it's great, it's made for pennies or dollars a minute. we're making content for $100,000 a minute and yes, it's expensive but that is worth paying for, we think. hello? hey there! the ability to show different shots depending on which way the phone is orientated is taken even further in the short film, nest, where watching in landscape shows a normal cinematic film, but switching to portrait shows what the main character can see on her phone screen instead. you know what? i will come back. you have a good one. i mean there is only so many streaming services that anyone is going to be able to pay for. that's got to be a consideration. ultimately on a mega thing, it's like, yes, we can't all afford

to have everything we want so in that regard you are right. at the macro level or the 50,000 feet down, yes we are competing for people's entertainment. broadly speaking, i think. yeah, but at $4.99, we think we're awfully affordable and differentiated from what everybody else is doing. $4,99, very expensive production values, are you going to make money anytime? we see a day where we will become profitable in the not—too—distant future, and then we will have a decision to make. if the thing is growing like crazy, do we invest more in content and marketing? but we are really responsible from a financial perspective and we created a business plan that our investors underwrote because we told them what the runway looked like. this is not one of those things where we said let's build an audience we'll figur out if we can make money. we're two old dogs. we've run businesses, we've been public company ceos,

day one, this has got a very clear path to profitability, reasonably early. of course it's notjust streamers who are trying to get our attention. advertisers are in a constant battle and its getting increasingly hard for them so i've been looking at a company that it is a computer vision and ai to put ads in the footage that we are already watching, after it has been made. in our fast paced world of growing impatience, who wants to sit there and add that? so, could this be the solution? right here beside me is a blank wall. but that is easy enough to change.

myriad is they using aig by the right spots for the right advertising and the content we are already watching. i'm sending video footage was created and from there the aa can select where in the image the advert should be placed. in terms detection and weather introduces on the continent, that is done by the a0. where we do require a human eye, is the actual embedded work because of the competitive shadows and lighting are things like that. we have a skilled team that posed analysis, then places that brand in and the machine will struggle to learn to, for example, if there is a scene where there is a car crash, it wouldn't want a car brand in there. it depends on the type of content so if you're looking —— using a soap opera, the context of the scenes are quite repetitive, you are from a cafe to a pub, to street, you will find we can identify something it is to be continuous.

you can't have it in one scene and disappear in the other, is —— it's usefulfor that. i thought that i was quite interesting, and the background as a relative and obvious place to put something but you might not have said, that spaces in the background and cover the window. but my favourite part is looking at weird stuff that companies have come up with for example, any idea what that is? oh, it's supposed to do that. some strange headphones? they are not. if they are the shoe blast. if you have smelly shoes this was all the raffles can't borrow some shooter demonstrate? i think yours are more appropriate. trust me i spelt yours.

a genuinely is my favourite part of ces, wandering around and looking at the weird stuff. here's the round—up of all the crazy stuff around. you just got me getting a tattoo. they say what happens in vegas stays in vegas,, these tattoos will, they were washed right up. you can choose what you want. i'm going to get this little foxes and there we are —— fox and branded for life until i shower. this is light thread. it is made of micro led and it fits through the eye of a needle. it was in a glass case but i convince the company to let me poke it for a few seconds to show you how small it is. there is no plans to put this in any codes at the moment so i have challenged them to do that for next.

i have stopped for a gaming break to play with vortex. it's basically a little fan in a box blast you with hot or cold air to make your gaming more immersive. look, no keys! this is a concept from samsung. instead of typing on a tiny smartphone screen, you can use your selfie camera and touch type on the table in front of you and the camera recognises the letters that you are trying to type in your head and it's weird because i have been playing in training mode, i've had a few minutes to try it and i really got some speed up. it does work. i know is the wrong month for a christmas tree but i wanted to show you these lights which can make co—ordinated patterns. it can do that because using your phone you very quickly can map the location of each individual led. and that means you can also draw custom patterns on a christmas tree. it's about $300 for a string

of 600 leds so this tree is worth to the $2,000. this is the ultiracer, you can click on your bike and control videogames. i can steer in the company promises me i will never fall off. the faster i padel, the more bolts issued in this game and there is even a little racing game. i would love to see them linkage of these together so i can play mario cart. time for smartphone prototypes. if you want to change your smartphone into a folding phone, perhaps device from pocket monitors can help. it turns your existing phone into a 3—way folding phone, sort of. or go for something completely different

and have a blind smartphone. lets you send round calls and brand messages, but you can't take around softly. this device does notjust overhead headphone jack it, it has two so you can listen to songs with friends. the creator said she wants to make it because people are naturally drawn to circles. we have seen coffee machines uptake drinks from capsules. this machine makes cupcakes and cookies. it's from argentina, i open these pdos and squeeze the dough into these little cooking trays and then into the machine they go. it's going to take about five minutes to cook so lets do a time lapse or something. that's good.

it will be rude if i didn't stay here and make absolutely sure they all taste as good. i will see you in a bit. that's it from us from ces, at least for this week. there are more amazing things to come next week. in the meantime, you know where we are. thank you so much for watching. see you soon. hello. today is a taster of what we can expect through the coming week.

wet and windy conditions dominate the story. this afternoon the strongest of the winds will be a head or along this band of rain. heavy pulses for cumbria and snowdonia. head of it it is dry but there is a lot of cloud. behind it there is a lot of cloud. behind it the winds start to ease for northern ireland and scotland and it will brighten up here. starting to feel a little fresher. away from there, temperatures wildly in double figures. very mild for the time of year. this evening our band of rain continues down towards the south and east, taking with the strongest of the winds. vitamin c further north, still a few showers which could pose an ice risk first thing on sunday as here temperatures will drop lower. where we keep the wind and rain, temperatures not dropping away so far. sunday, that clears to was the south and east. another band of rain structuring through wales, clearing the midlands and lincolnshire. brightening up through the afternoon for many areas, a blustery day and starting feel fresher.

this is bbc news. the headlines... iran admits shooting down the ukranian passenger plane, saying they mistook it for a cruise missile. british prime minister borisjohnson calls the admission ‘an important first step‘. in ukraine, questions over why the plane was allowed to take off from tehran, anger over iran's initial denials. translation: the iran representative instructed our crew in clear words to take off and the crew followed the orders. in the current climate it would be stupid to try to hide something. back to business for the northern ireland assembly. these are the scenes live in stormont, as talks resume for the first time since the power—sharing agreement collapsed three years ago. keir starmer — the shadow brexit secretary —
