this is bbc news. the headlines at 5. the chancellor, sajid javid, says there will be no alignment for businesses with eu regulations after brexit. business representatives warn food prices could rise and jobs may be affected as a result. senior south yorkshire police officers ignored sexual abuse of girls in rotherham by asian men, for fear of causing racial tensions, according to the police watchdog. contenders in the race to replace jeremy corbyn as labour leader call for unity, as they take part in the first hustings of the contest, answering questions from party members in liverpool. police demand an urgent meeting with the commander of the us base, close to where teenager harry dunn was killed, after two more incidents

involving a car being driven on the wrong side of the road. heavy rain and thunderstorms dampen bushfires in eastern australia, but bring flooding to some areas. british scientists suggest the number of people already infected by a new virus emerging in china, is far greater than official figures suggest. a crackdown on alcohol—fuelled holidays in majorca and ibiza, as pub crawls and happy hours are banned in 3 popular resorts. british business groups have warned the chancellor, there'll be higherfood prices

and jobs might be affected, if britain diverges from eu regulations after brexit. the warning comes after sajid javid's comments in today's financial times newspaper, where he's also insisted that firms must adjust to new regulations and that not all businesses will benefit from brexit. in the article, he says... the food and drink federation have warned that the chancellor's comments sounded like the "death knell" for frictionless trade and would result in price rises. meanwhile, the confederation of british industry said, the government shouldn't feel ‘obliged' to depart from eu rules. the cbi's director general said...

our business correspondent, katy austin, told me more about what the chancellor's warning means for businesses. the message is to hammer home to businesses that they need to get used to the idea that there won't be the same alignment when it comes to regulations. this is not a new idea at all. boris johnson has signalled in his government that it does not want to close trading relationship afterwards. it does what not want to follow the eu rule book after it has left that block. these comments are hammering home to businesses after october after businesses have said that this is not the direction they want to go in because it could hurtjobs. now we're coming up to the start

of the transition period where trade negotiations are really going to get going, and we get a picture of what life will be like after brexit. what life will be like for businesses after brexit. he is saying you need to plan for it as much as you can. what has been the reaction from wider business? there has been a pragmatic response in some industries, accepting that the government wants to go in this direction. it has to be said, the eu does not want the uk to leave and perhaps get a better arrangement than perhaps it has at present but some manufacturing industries like the car industry is saying that it wants to have an early sight of exactly what the government is planning so it can help read between the lines, mitigating the effect and make sure that the volume of cars being made here for example doesn't go down, and so that trade can happen without too many problems.

and the food and drink federation as you have said they are saying that frictionless trade could have implications in loading costs. when do we get to see the detail on this? there wasn't a lot of detail in this. the devil is always in the detail and he did not specify exactly what regulations he wanted to pull away from and exactly regulations affected which specific industries. we will of course have see but this is the crucial point when organisations are gonna have to step up when it comes to trade. an investigation by the police watchdog, has concluded that senior officers ignored the sexual abuse of girls in rotherham by asian men, for fear of causing racial tensions. south yorkshire police said, it accepted the findings and had been working to address the issues identified by the independent office for police conduct.

the iopc upheld a number of complaints from abuse survivor, elizabeth — not her real name — who spoke to bbc yorkshire's, alasdair gill. i still say to this day that i'm lucky to be alive and... the blame would have been put on them. the way that they describe the report, the sex in the report, the sex scene of rotherham. imean... we were children. you can hear alasdair gill's full report at 7pm, here on the bbc news channel. the chief constable of northamptonshire police has demanded an urgent meeting with the commander of the us base, where the woman wanted over the death of harry dunn was stationed, after video emerged of another incident involving a car being driven nearby on the wrong wide of the road. the news of the near—miss incident near raf croughton, emerged as police revealed details

of a third incident, in which a police vehicle was struck by a car being driven on the wrong side of the road in october. the 5 mps who want to replace jeremy corbyn as labour leader, have been taking questions from party members in liverpool. the candidates called for unity within the party — despite jostling for position over a number of issues. it's the first of a series of events around the country, which will culminate in a new leader being selected at the start of april. here's our political correspondent, susana mendonca. cheering. heading in to face party members for this, the first hustings in labour's leadership contest. the opening question, how to bring a divided party together after its general election defeat. the whole point of the labour party was that it was established to bring together all views across the centre left of politics to become a credible force to keep the tories out of power.

and yes, we will disagree, but we have those disagreements in private. rebecca long—bailey is seen as the closest candidate to outgoing leaderjeremy corbyn. the other front is sir keir starmer, who also called for unity. we have had far too much division. i think the whole of the party wants to be united. they want to come together, so we have to end factionalism. stop asking the question, which part of the party are you from, and start saying, what are you saying? what i saw in the election... i went to 44 constituencies and i saw big teams of labour supporters out there, drawing together, putting their differences aside. the candidates were also quizzed on their position on brexit, which is seen by some as a reason why labour lost many of its northern seats. the wigan mp lisa nandy, who opposed another referendum, said the party had airbrushed complexities about brexit. my leave—voting constituents are no more racist little englanders that my friends who voted remain are liberal elitists. we should never allow the tories

to divide us, young against old. birmingham'sjess phillips also said the party needed to bring together the north and the south. our coalition of labour voters and labour members has two very big hearts in this game. we have got to send that fight to borisjohnson to make sure that in grimsby, he is delivering exactly what he promised on the side of a bus at the same time as making sure that in our london seats, people feel we are not going to turn away from europe. show me what democracy looks like! this is what democracy looks like! the shadow foreign secretary emily thornberry campaigned for another referendum and said labour had to unite now against the conservatives. we may well end up facing a no—deal brexit and we have to take the fight to that because in the end, what unites all of us is that we have to look afterjobs and the economy because that is what we are about. as labour looks for its new leader, the candidates will be vying

for the support they will need to make it to the final round of voting. susana mendonca, bbc news. heavy rain and thunderstorms have caused flash floods in parts of south—east australia, which have been badly affected by wildfires. there've been downpours in victoria, new south wales and queensland, which has helped to douse some of the blazes. fires have been raging in australia since september, killing at least 28 people, destroying thousands of homes and scorching millions of acres of land. our correspondent in sydney, phil mercer, has more. australia is a land well used to nature's extremes, but this is a country being confronted by fires that continue to burn, very significant storms bringing large amounts of rain to parts of eastern australia. and there have been parts of this country that remain dry. so this is a country that, in queensland, for example, parts of queensland experienced

three times the monthly rainfall average injust one night. that brought flooding to many areas. and of course, this rainfall is a blessing and a curse. it's a blessing because some of that rain has fallen on fire grounds on bushfires, aiding the emergency effort that stretches all the way back to september. so significant rainfall here in new south wales and in the state of victoria, too. but of course, with the rain comes the risk of flooding and also the risk of contamination. there are fears that ash from some charred areas of bushland could leach into rivers and water systems, affecting the drinking supplies of australians. we haven't seen any evidence of that yet, but that does remain a factor in this rain that is continuing here in eastern australia. and, of course, significantly the psychological boost. australians in the last couple of days, waking up

to grey skies full of rain, that is lifting the spirits of a beleaguered country that's battling, as we say, dozens of bushfires, a longstanding drought. so what we need is more rain. and the authorities do caution that the heavens do need to still continue to open and give us flooding rain, if this bushfire crisis is to come, finally, to any sort of conclusion. take a look at these pictures of a baby kangaroo, called louise, who was rescued with horrific burns to her legs and paws, as fires ravaged australia s south east coast 2 weeks ago. her volunteer carer has been looking after animals like louise, nursing them to recovery. australia s continuing bushfire crisis has taken an enormous toll on wildlife, with huge numbers of mammals, birds, reptiles, insects

and other species killed. the australian government has announced a $50 million fund, to help rescue and protect wildlife affected by the crisis. scientists say the number of people infected by the new respiratory virus that's emerged in the chinese city of wuhan is likely to be far higher than official figures suggest. there are nearly 50 laboratory confirmed cases of the virus, which is related to sars, but experts in london estimate the true number is closer to 1700. the alarm has prompted screening at airportsacross asia and in the us. gareth barlow reports. this is wuhan, the chinese city where the mystery virus was first identified. an outbreak that has since turned deadly. scores of infections have been confirmed but now a team at imperial college in london estimates the true figure is around 1700 cases.

while the outbreak is centred in china, there have been two cases in thailand and one injapan. we are not able to prohibit people from travelling so what we can do is detecting and bring any suspected to receive treatment from our service facility. airports in asia and the united states have begun screening travellers arriving from wuhan. the uk team behind the study said that, while they're concerned, it was too early to be alarmist. the virus is similar to sars, which killed almost 800 people and infected over 8000 in 2002. it looks like the virus is closely related to sars, which you mentioned previously. which emerged previously. since sars emerged, people have been developing vaccines and drugs to see

if they work against sars. the problem is this virus is different. we do not know yet if those drugs and those vaccines work. chinese scientists says there has been no cases of the virus spreading between humans and that it came about from infected animals at a seafood and wildlife markets. but the team at imperial college argues the possibility of substantial human—to—human tranmission should be considered more seriously. identifying how the virus is spread will be crucial to understanding its threat and how best to react. gareth barlow, bbc news. the headlines on bbc news... businesses warn of price rises, after the chancellor, sajid javid, said there would be no alignment with eu regulations after brexit. contenders in the race to replace jeremy corbyn as labour leader call for unity, as they take part in the first hustings of the contest, answering questions from party members in liverpool. police demand an urgent meeting with the commander of the us base, close to where teenager harry dunn

was killed, after two incidents involving cars being driven on the wrong side of the road. sadiq khan says he wants put london on a par with scandinavian capitals, by making it a carbon—neutral city by 2030. if he's re—elected as mayor of the capital later this year. mr khan s strategy to go carbon—neutral forms part of what he calls a green new deal for london, which he'd roll out during a second term. speaking earlier, sadiq khan said, london needs to be ambitous in order to make the city greener. we face in london, across our country and around the world, a climate emergency. we've seen in london the consequences of the air quality crisis, and we need to take action. it is ambitious. what i've announced today is a new green deal for london, with a plan to get us to carbon neutral by 2030, using the power of city hall, the dynamism

of the private sector and voluntary groups to work together to meet the target. the alternative is not worth thinking about. it is very ambitious, though, that date. how will that be achieved? just think about what we've achieved over the last three and a half years in london. people said that i couldn't bring in an ultra—low emission zone. we've done it, and we've seen a reduction in nitrogen dioxide, but also in particular, people said we couldn't stop buying diesel double—decker buses. we've done it. only electric buses in london, or hybrid or hydrogen buses. we've started only giving licences to zero—emission cable taxis, electric taxis. people said i couldn't do it. we started in london encouraging even more people to walk, cycle, use public transport. we are retrofitting buildings. this week, we launched a new power company, london power, 100% renewable energy. look, it's going to be hard. i'm hoping the government will work with us to make sure it is a success, but it is in all of our interests, both our generation, the next generation, people across the globe, to get this right. it's time for the government to wake up. i intend for london to be the greenest city going forward,

to be the greenest london mayor ever. i need londoners' support to help lobby the government to do their part as well. and what impact could this have on the third runway at heathrow? i think a new runway at heathrow airport is catastrophic for the climate emergency. it's catastrophic for air quality, for noise pollution, it doesn't make economic sense, let alone environmental sense. the prime minister promised that he would lie in front of a bulldozer to prevent the third runway. he is a man who doesn't break promises, so i'm the flight recorders of the ukrainian airliner which was accidentally shot down by iranian forces will be sent to ukraine, according to one news agency in iran. it's reporting that the so—called "black boxes" had not been read in iran and would be transferred to ukraine where french, british and canadian experts will try and retrieve information from the cockpit voice and flight data recorders.

all 176 passengers and crew were killed after the ukraine airlines plane was shot down by the iranians shortly after takeoff from tehran‘s main airport. the head of nato, jens stoltenberg, has welcomed the arrival of the military alliance s new high tech drones at a military base in sicily. based on the us global hawk, the drone can carry out surveillance of an area the size of poland injust one trip. our defence correspondent jonathan beale has been given an exclusive look at the new drones at their italian base. donald trump says he wants the nato alliance to do more. this is one way they can do that. these are the first nato—owned and operated unmanned surveillance drones. the global hawk, based here in sicily, can travel halfway around the world on one tank of fuel.

it can stay up in the air for more than 30 hours carrying out surveillance. and here, believe it or not, is the cockpit on the ground at sigonella airbase in a side room with a sensor operator sitting here and over here, the pilot flying the aircraft with just the click of a mouse. how do you fly? based on the ip system. we don't have any control sticks. it's a pretty big leap forward to have our own organic intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance aircraft that we don't have to rely on getting time from somebody else. it's ours so we can task it

the way we want to task it. intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance is also about understanding what is going on coastal waters. about understanding what is going on close to our borders. and we have seen the significant russian military build—up over the last years. we saw how russia used force against the crimea illegally annexing crimea. if you had the capability like that in 2014, we would have been able to understand much earlier and better what was happening in crimea. but this drone is not armed. it is still primarily a military tool. and these unmanned systems are not without controversy, not least because they can make warfare seem more remote. they can also become a target. in fact, one of these, a us1,

was shot down last year by iran in fact, one of these, a us one, was shot down last year by iran and more than $100 million each, they don't come cheap. a law has been passed banning pub crawls and happy hours in 3 popular spanish tourist destinations, in a bid to crack down on alcohol—fuelled holidays. restrictions apply to the tourist hotspots of playa de palma and magaluf in majorca and san antonio in ibiza. the regional government says it's the first legislation of its kind in europe. matt mavir runs a stag and hen do company. i asked him what he thought of the changes. i think what the government are trying to do is quite a responsible thing. they are looking to get their destinations to be viable in ten to 15 years time.

the biggest issue that i have got is that they are trying to do it very quickly and that's a will have a knock on affect for suppliers in the area. how will it affect them? what they are trying to do is become responsible in putting legislation against people jumping from back balconies, which is a great idea. can't believe it isn't already banned. looking at different happy hour promotions. that's also sensible, but they are also banning pub crawls and party boats. they seem to be doing it overnight. if you want to change the location that's fine but evolution is a better way forward, maybe you could do it over the course of 15 years. maybe you could talk to and engage with companies in the process so they are not left bankrupt. obviously, the tourists on these pub crawls just don't know how to behave. i do think that that's

true to an extent. to an extent, the culture within these results has sort of fuelled that and i do think that trying to curb it is a good idea. i would say to try to engage the pub crawlers and get them involved which would put you in a better position to stamp this kind of thing out. whilst keeping the clientele coming back. on your website, the top ten destinations don't include the hotspots that the were included in this particular report, but have you seen problems in some of the places you include on your website? dublin in the 90s, and the recent extent amsterdam would be a case in point. we look at what kind of groups are coming here and had a wee look at changing this, but little by little. amsterdam in the process of doing it. they have looked and said we don't

want to be about this necessarily, so they have put actions where they are not banning people from coming for certain reasons but they are just tweaking it slightly, making it less likely that certain types of tourist will, more likely that other types of groups will go. if you are going to come or go on a stag do why does it have to involve excessive amounts of alcohol? it doesn't. maybe in the 80s and early 90s that was the case. our clientele these days are far more interested in the experiences and having a good time. alcohol does play a part in that but actually it's far more about being away with your group of friends and having a shared experience and that's the thing they remember. who are the worst offenders, you instantly think of the british drinking too much. is that really the case?

well, we like a pint. that's for certain. i don't think we are by any means the worst offenders. there are lots of other countries out there. i do think we are actually improving and getting better as we go on. you may think that lakes and rivers in britain are environmentally friendly but did you know they release greenhouse gases into the air? scientists are warning that climate change could increase the amount of carbon dioxide and methane, they emit. richard westcott has more. it's obvious where some greenhouse gases come from. but there's another vast source of carbon dioxide and methane that might surprise you — freshwater lakes and rivers. so we're going to put this very sophisticated—looking bucket onto the river here... i love it. ..and what it will do is trap carbon dioxide and methane as it

comes off the river, trying to escape to the atmosphere. as leaves and plant litter fall into the water, they're eaten by tiny microbes, bacteria and fungi, and they give off methane and carbon dioxide. the bucket might be basic, but it is connected to a sophisticated laser which measures the gases. looking through your cracked screen, but these are spikes... this is why we need more funding, richard! so that one is methane, that one is co2, and you can see them jump when the bucket is placed on the water. jump up. exactly. i think it would surprise people that fresh water is a source of greenhouse gases. i mean, how much is in them? exactly, and it will. in terms of global land cover, fresh water only covers about 4% of the planet. but if we look at methane, for example, up to 16% of all natural methane emissions can come from fresh waters, so we can say those fresh waters are disproportionately important

in the global carbon cycle. a little experiment to illustrate the point. take a stick and swish it around in the mud and a lot of those bubbles coming up are likely to be methane. fresh water is responsible for around one quarter of the net carbon dioxide and methane going from the earth's surface into the atmosphere — although that could be about to change. we push it through the filter, water goes through the other side and all the microbes stay on the paper, and then we take that back to the lab and we look at what is there. we know that some microbes are just producing methane and some don't. so as the climate is changing, it may change with microbes that are there and it can produce different outcomes. we just need to stop filming while this family comes through. did you get a picture? i think i did. what eleanor has in her hands like a giant flashlight. based on the type of light that bounces back, we can tell what types of algae are growing. so algae, like trees, takes the co2 out? exactly.

andrew's latest research in canada suggests climate change could double the greenhouse gases coming from fresh water. forests, for example, with — under a warmer climate, forests may produce more leaves and more dead plant material to fall in the water to feed microbes, bacteria and fungi that produce these gases. they can now use that knowledge to find natural solutions — maybe different trees or algae which can trap some of the greenhouse gases. as for our cam readings, methane levels are low, and carbon dioxide was average. that means 750 metres of the river emits about the same amount of co2 a day as getting into your car and driving the 60—odd miles to london. richard westcott, bbc news, by the river cam.

i can't get fired. this is the only job i ever wanted, i don't want to be on tv, i want to be on fog. three women at fog news bring harassment scandal. find out what mark kermode thinks of bombshell in the film review. first, though, it's time for a look at the weather with stav danaos. hello there. high—pressure has replaced low pressure, which we have had for quite a while, that will bring wet and windy and mild conditions to our shores. for the next few days, high pressure will continue to bring a lot of dry weather with some sunshine, light winds, but it will stay cold with overnight frosts. this is the area of high pressure which builds in during saturday. it has pushed this area of low pressure away from the north of the country, so we should continue to see the showers clear away for the northern isles, although we could see just a few on a northernly wind clipping the far south—east of england. a cold night to come. clear skies with light wind,

the widespread pretty hard frost, particularly out of town. high pressure still with us on into sunday, part two of the weekend is also looking fine and sunny for most. you will notice more isobars, some weather fronts just flirting with the north—west corner. it will be breezier here through the day, introducing more cloud in north—west scotland, a little bit of rain for the northern isles, but with this milder south—western temperatures reach nine or 10 degrees, for stornoway. elsewhere after a cold start to sunday with a mist and fog. should be a dry afternoon with plenty of sunshine. temperatures 6—8. into monday, high pressure still with us, these weather fronts and isoba rs closer together across the north, continuing to bring quite a difference in temperature to start monday, around eight or 9 degrees in the north, more cloud, cold, frosty start for central and southern parts of the uk. here, once the frost tends to left through the morning we should see here, once the frost tends to lift through the morning we should see plenty of sunshine once again. there will be some sunshine once again for northern ireland, eastern scotland, but more cloud for the west of scotland

and the northern isles. more of a breeze here, too, a milder nine or 10 degrees as opposed to the south, 6—8 celsius, which is actually nearer normal for the time of year. the area of high pressure still with us on into tuesday but it will see one weather front toppling across the north of the country and spread south. it could introduce one or two spots of rain, behind it, the sunshine will make a return, but as the weather, very weak weather front, spreads south, it will introduce a band of cloud, perhaps some sort of drizzle for england and wales as we head through tuesday afternoon. it still stays pretty cold, those temperatures in single figures across the board, cooler for the north too. with high—pressure dominating this evening and throughout the week it should stay largely dry, variable cloud, spells of sunshine, cold overnight. hello, this is bbc news with me, lukwesa burak. the headlines: the chancellor, sajid javid,

says there will be no alignment for businesses with eu regulations after brexit. companies warn food prices could rise and jobs may be affected as a result. contenders in the race to replace jeremy corbyn as labour leader call for unity as they take part in the first hustings of the contest, answering questions from party members in liverpool. senior south yorkshire police officers ignored sexual abuse of girls in rotherham by asian men, for fear of causing racial tensions, according to the police watchdog. police demand an urgent meeting with the commander of the us base close to where teenager harry dunn was killed — after two more incidents involving cars being driven on the wrong side of the road. heavy rain and thunderstorms dampen bushfires in eastern australia but bring flooding to some areas.

the fives mps who want to replace jeremy corbyn as labour leader have been taking questions from party members in liverpool. the candidates called for unity within the party — despite jostling for position over a number of issues. it's the first of a series of events around the country, which will culminate in a new leader being selected at the start of april. here with me now is the former political secretary to tony blair and commentator, john mcternan. thank you very much for coming in. from what you saw today, who is the next leader of the labour party?|j think the first thing to say is, quite a few people about the capability to take over the labour party. and to move the labour party into the centre ground, direction what needs to go to be electable. i think for me, the person who has shown this week, on andrew neil, was

lisa nandy. she is not someone people have known about us id labour party. and then keir starmer, he is the front runner and he is an experienced parliamentarian, senior shadow minister, and experienced in public life before. that came across very strongly. emily thornberry, she has got a great character, great position when she speaks. and just phillips isjust position when she speaks. and just phillips is just phillips. position when she speaks. and just phillips isjust phillips. i think the person lagging behind is rebecca long—bailey. thought to be the favourite because she's the most corbyn standing. she is the continuity candidate. comes out the party don't really want continuity with corbyn. they want a chance of when he the next election. you will correct me if i'm wrong, but i'm sure you have set if rebecca long—bailey was picked, it would see the demise of the party. is that right? why would you have said that? i think if rebecca long—bailey is the party leader, that is the end

for the labour party. it's because the party went left with ed miliband and lost the election, went further left with jeremy corbyn and lost an election went even further left with the 2019 manifesto and lost disastrously, our worst results in 2000, since 1935. if you go for rebecca long—bailey, it is more left, more left him a more left, five defeats in a row a consequent of that. it would be harsh to beat —— a harsh defeat. you get rebecca long bailey come in no chance of change. i would say labour has rejected them. you mentioned there that they all showed some potential, the ability to be leader. if you have been in that audience today, what question would you have asked that would have allowed you to distinguish the true leader? what went wrong in the last election and what did jeremy do wrong? because i think people do need to be honest with the party. that's one of the themes that lisa has brought up time

and again, if the labour party doesn't change, we are going to die. i think you need to say, i think that's right. tell us what it was we did wrong. what do we need to change? why do we need to change? we cannot have this kind of, the ma nifesto cannot have this kind of, the manifesto was kind of ok and let's not slack off the last labour government. 13 years of government. four years of opposition under jeremy corbyn, two defeats, two decisive defeats. we've got to start saying what it is that went wrong stop what is the priority? -- what is the priority. handling boris johnson, is that the priority? or should they be concentrate on the party? sorting out the party is not a priority but a necessary condition. if you don't sort the party out, don't sort the leadership outcome you can stick on force with any credibility but you have to have any credibility but you have to have an analysis of where you are

approaching this. it cannot be, you've done brexit. it's got to be something a friend. it's got to be an approach where you say, boris johnson's promised this to these voters and he's not delivering. you've got to say, you've offered this to new voters in the north and you are falling, failing to fulfil on that. you're falling behind. i think you've got to have some way of saying, you do say you are new kind of tory. what kind of tory is that? turns out you're an unsuccessful tory, delivering jobs and, actually, when they leave swindon, that was you, you did that. you did at you one the election, you one on brexit, —— you one one the election, you one on brexit, —— you one on one the election, you one on brexit, —— you one on brexit. one the election, you one on brexit, -- you one on brexit. john mcternan, thank you very much for that.

the film review is in ten minutes' time — olly foster has the sport. thank you. it's been a mixed day for england's cricketers in the third test against south africa. there was a maiden five—wicket haulfor dom bess before they were frustrated by the rain and then a string of dropped catches. south africa closing on 208—6, still 291 runs behind england's first innings. patrick gearey reports. every morning at every ground, a theirfans sing every morning at every ground, a their fans sing jerusalem. this time, there was belief. here is why. expertly caught by all the pope off the bowling of dom bass. pope plaza mexico could only be fully appreciated on the replay even by those with the best views. south africa's captain was next to fail the best test, again, by pope. england's pin was only brought on this tour because of sickness in the

camp and yet when he removed this cricketer, he had taken all of south africa's wicket. only the weather gave south africa sanctuary. rain ruined the afternoon session. it was still murky when they returned, perhaps the reason for this strange incident. ben stokes dropping a catch. where was the kryptonite? not long later, dismissing, sent in last night to black for some his concentration finally broken. but it was the man stokes had missed who became the problem. quinton de kock made his way to 50. this would be his lucky day having been dropped by england's best builder once already, it happened again. and unbelievably, again. stokes stun, the batsmen survived with time getting shorter. england up against the weather and quinton de kock. patrick gearey bbc news.

let's stay with the third test. a little earlier, i spoke to the former england batsman jonathan trott. he says the rain interruptions could play a critical role in the outcome. last 27 overs can be crucial come the decision, and if they get the opportunity to force a follow—on or whetherjoe root wants to bat again. they will have to look at the weather and the day off, day five, and that will play a huge part in his decision and if you can have the option to make south africa follow on. we have seven results in the premier league, five of them draws. there was an incredible finish at the etihad. it looked as though sergio aguero had come to the rescue for manchester city. they were losing 1—0 to crystal palace inside the final ten minutes, but he scored twice to put the champions ahead. there was still time for fernandinho to score an own goal in the 90th minute after good work from wilfried zaha. 2—2 the final score. that means liverpool can move 16

points clear at the top if they beat manchester united tomorrow. we did everything. they arrived two times and unfortunately, we did not win. the crowd spirit, the late goal u nfortu nately. watford have another point in their bid to beat the drop. it was 0—0 against tottenham at vicarage road. watford saw a penalty saved but goalline technology also helped them late on. rob heath reports. cocky but maybe with good reason. four wins and six unbeaten since the middle of last month. under nigel pearson convoy for him experienced a lea p pearson convoy for him experienced a leap rather than just the usual bounce associated with a new manager. for most of the first half, this match did not get off the ground. as flat as the battery in the referee's q mitigation system. it took almost three minutes to sort this mess out. not out of that time was added on, more criticism for the critics of var. spurs finally carved

out a chance for about harry kane, others need to step up. lucas moura could not. watford livened up after the break. that was watford's head in hands moment. now tottenham's. handball. no var required here. troy deeney usually goes to the left. the goalkeeper dives to his right. still 0-0. goalkeeper dives to his right. still 0—0. injuries and the uncertainty over christian eriksen‘s future in front and spurs to acquire 21—year—old jolson fernandez from benfica. he had time. nearly the move to snatch the match. only millimetres in it. thejury may still be out on aspects of var. the gold decision system, on general consensus, seems to make sense. rob heath, bbc news.

arsenal were heading for victory at home to sheffield united but that also ended in a draw. john fleck scored inside the last ten minutes to cancel out the gunners' first half opener from gabriel martinelli. united seventh in the table, arsenal 10th. norwich came out on top in their relegation battle against bournemouth at carrow road, teemu pukki with the only goal of the game from the penalty spot. bournemouth played for an hour with ten men. norwich also had a man sent off. they are still bottom, but that's their first win in ten league matches and they are nowjust three points behind bournemouth. here are the other results from the premier league. brighton and villa was 1—1. rauljiminez scored twice as wolves came from behind to beat southampton 3—2. west ham and everton finished 1—1. newcastle against chelsea and st james, they are about 15 minutes into that match. no goals yet. in the fourth round of the scottish cup, championship side ayr united knocked

out premiership ross county 1—0. aberdeen beat dumbarton, but only after an 86th minute penalty. daniel stendel got his first win as hearts manager as his side comfortably beat league one's airdrie 5—0. and six assists from chris burke gave kilmarnock six goals against queen's park. it's just kicked off between celtic and partick thistle. celtic already 1—0 up. dundee host motherwell later. all the rest of the results are on the bbc sport website. it's the final round of matches in rugby union's european champions cup this weekend and there was a huge win for northampton saints in france — 36—24 at lyon. the bonus point gives them a chance of qualifying for the quarterfinals. craig templeton reports. a colourful setting with the reality for northampton saints was rather more black—and—white for some either beat lyon or their hopes of making a first quarterfinals since 2016 would be over. after a cagey start, saints took advantage of a lyon yellow card as mike haywood mulled his way to

the opening try. with the extra man, they should have capitalised further but lyon scored twice. the quick thinking of liam gill giving them a healthy lead. things were starting to eat away at that lead, though. first, a try of attrition and then cobus reinach with a tray of beauty. you might not feel to see him yet but he is coming. he re—gives saints the lead. lyon use respondent illegally but saints were not done yet. fairbank finding the gap for a bonus but they could be so vital. there was still room for one more. saints first one in france in nine yea rs saints first one in france in nine years and that quarterfinal chances are still alive. craig templeton, bbc news. ulster secured their place in the last eight with 22—15 win over bath in pool three. full back will addison went over for the last of their three tries.

been a sorry tale for bath in europe. six defeats in six matches. ali carter has continued his dream run at the masters snooker. he's into tomorrow's final after beating shaun murphy 6—3. the ao—year—old took his opportunity to close out the match in the ninth frame with a flawless break of 97. he'll face either david gilbert or stuart bingham in the final. they play a little bit later. and one way 01’ they play a little bit later. and one way or another, that will mean there is a new name on the trophy. that's all the sport for now. but now on bbc news, it's time for the film review. hello and a very warm welcome to the film review on bbc news. taking us through this week's cinema releases is mark kermode. hi, mark. hello.

very interesting mix this week. we have bombshell, which, as you probably know, is up for three oscars. a hidden life, the new film by terrence malick. and weathering with you, an anime from the director of your name. yeah, really interesting week. a very good week. so, let's start with bombshell. so three oscar nominations — two performances for charlize theron, margot robbie, and hairand make—up — which is interesting because make—up is a lot — it's to do with prosthetic work in order to make them look like the real—life characters. this is a drama based on the real—life scandal of roger ailes at the fox news network. his downfall kind of prefigured that of harvey weinstein, which is currently in the news at the moment. although actually, the movie went into sort of preproduction before that scandal broke. sojohn lithgow is eerily convincing as roger ailes who sort of is running this organisation, this absolutely toxic culture, in which he believes he has the absolute right to essentially abuse the women who are working under him, and the culture is such

that nobody appears to be ready to speak out. everyone just thinks "this is the way it is. if you speak out, it willjust end very, very badly." until finally, gretchen carlson, played by nicole kidman, decides to take her complaint to the public through the law. here's a clip. if you're able to stick it out at fox, gather more evidence, you might be able to sue ailes himself, instead of fox. and that is why i am here. because marty hyman told me that over here in newjersey, i can avoid arbitration by suing roger personally. he says that you've managed to change the law and that we could call other women and show a pattern. will other women come forward? yes. they will. you live and work in new york. roger has a house in bergen county, where he stays when he can't make it upstate. you do your homework, ms carlson. no fingerprints. that's how much i practised the violin as a child. if roger finds out you came to us,

he won'tjustjust fire you, he will bang us with a $1 million lawsuit, he will attack you personally. men like him worry more about reputations than they do money. roger won't stop. you know that. oh, i know. colleagues you admire will say publicly you're a superior, ambitious woman who is suing because her career has stalled. let 'em. wow! i mean, even that tells us how important this story is. it is, and it's very, very timely and what i think the film does manage to do is create a very good portrait of a toxic environment in which this sort of thing is going on. and what's interesting is that the abuse goes from, like, you know, the lowliest newcomer to people who are very sort of high up in the organisation. i think the film itself — which is directed by jay roach — isn't perfect. i think it's solidly done. occasionally, it has a little bit of the tv drama about it. it owes a debt to the big short. stylistically, the big short is kinda of more adventurous. but what carries this shoulder—high are the performances. i mean, it is a terrific trio

of charlize theron, nicole kidman and margot robbie. for me, funnily enough, watching it reminded me a little bit of the fact that nicole kidman had made that film to die for, back in the '90s, which is a very good and very, very overlooked film. but this takes the story and it leads you through it in a way that kind of pastiches the infotainment style. and it is entertaining but you feel like you are being given a lot of information as the story progresses. and at the centre of it is this idea of silence — that everyone kind of knows what's going on but nobody is able to speak out because there is this poisonous culture, there is this, you know, this character who seems to be unassailable. the film's also kind of interesting about the beginning of the relationship between trump and fox news. and obviously, in the light of everything that's happened with that relationship, it's very interesting the way in which the film sets it up and initially, it is a kind of adversarial thing, but you can see

people thinking, "oh, actually, this guy thinks the things we think" and "this guy is maybe somebody that we should be getting behind." so i think it's a really interesting film but if the performances were not as good as they were, i think you might start to see the flaws in the drama a little bit more — but the performances are really good and... 0k. ..and i really bought into it as a result of that. plus, as you say, it is a really timely story and, you know, quite shocking, but yeah, very, very engrossing. all right. terrence malick for your second choice. yeah, so where do you stand on terrence malick? uh, i like what i've seen, but i've not seen huge amounts, so i think that's — i'm probably not the bestjudge. he has been off the boilfor a few years — in fact, for a few films. you look at things like prince of cups, song to song. people think of badlands and they think of the great malicks. yes. everything, i think, up to the thin red line. this is a return to form — partial return to form. the true story of a austrian conscientious objector, franz jagerstatter, who refused to swear allegiance to hitler during world war ii. we begin with an idyllic scene of him and his partner starting a family.

clouds are gathering — quite literally clouds gather overhead — and then it becomes a battle of conscience and will as the community turn on him for refusing to fall in line. the film was originally entitled radegund, which is the place where the home is set. the new title comes from george eliot — "with people who lived faithfully — a hidden life and rest in unvisited tombs", so the film sort of declares itself to be a celebration of a sort of quieter defiance, and one of the questions he's asked all the way through is "what's the point? what's the point? you think it's going to make any difference?" and the point that the film is making is actually not unlike the central point of it's a wonderful life — just a decent, a decent man, you know, actually is important. it's beautifully shot, beautifully scored. i have to say, i thought rather over — overuse of music. it has a religious element. and if you didn't notice the religious element, don't worry, the score will tell you, the music choices will tell you there's something religious going on here. 0k! so i like it up to a point. it does have a lot of that malicky stuff about hand—held, wispy, you know, voice—overs,

but i think its heart is absolutely in the right place. i think it is an important story about defiance and it is a story about standing up for the thing you believe in, even when everyone around you turns against you. and i think it's really found malick back on track after the last couple of films which were just self—indulgent waffle. and weathering with you. yeah! which i read was the highest—grossing film in japan last year. terrifically successful. so directed by makoto shinkai, who made your name — which you remember i reviewed on this show a couple of years ago? so, set during in a period of rain that looks like it's threatening to drown tokyo and japan. we have a young hero who runs away from home and he gets to tokyo to start a new life, where he falls in love, from a distance, with a young girl who he starts to believes is a weather maiden. as in, she can actually affect the weather. here's a clip. whoa.

watch. it's gonna clear up. huh? hey, what do you mean by...? what?! now, i should say, that's the english language dub. of course, i saw it in the original version which is the version that i would advise people to watch. i thought this was really fascinating, firstly because, like your name, it does the thing

about it's a young love story, but it's connected to a kind of global event. secondly, because it looks absolutely beautiful. i mean, just watching it... even that was gorgeous! yes, but even seeing it on a small screen, it is really beautiful. it has a great musical score by radwimps — i'm sure you have all of radwimps' albums. sorry! laughs the music is really, really good and really sort of suits the tone of the film itself. i found it enchanting. i love the way it's details of a love story but the wider fantasy of it all. it is aimed at a young adult audience — a 12a certificate film — so a lot more grown—up than some animations, but i thought it was fully terrific and it's not a surprise that it's been a huge hit and i hope it finds its audience here as well. oh, fantastic! and sticking with the theme of things that are visually stunning. yes! your best out — not surprising, i think — 1917. 1917 — have you seen 1917? 0h. i mean, visually, absolutely extraordinary. did you find... extraordinary! ..overwhelming — because the whole thing about 1917, first world war drama starring, brilliantly, george mackay, directed by sam mendes, is that it's — it plays out as if one shot. it's not one shot. it's not, but it's...

but it plays out as if... gosh, it's clever! did you find it immersive? i did, but i didn't find it as emotionally traumatic as i thought it was going to be. 0h, 0k! i was stunned by the visuals but then, you know, my other half trained in camera work and spent the whole two hours going, "oh, my god! oh, my god! this is extraordinary!" the camera work is absolutely extraordinary. yes, yes, so that's what we came out discussing. i thought the score was great as well, but i really did think... i mean, i was kind of suspicious at the beginning because the whole one—shot — even though it's not one shot — thing sounds like it could be a gimmick. you kind of think of the beginning of spectre — you remember the one shot going up, following bond, in and out the window and then across the rooftops? but actually, i forgot very early on that it was a stylistic format and i just felt that you were seeing the world unfold as these two central characters saw it, constantly discovering things as they discovered them, and... yeah, it... see it on a big screen. that's what it is all about. see it on the biggest possible screen, don't wait for it to come out on dvd. a big screen, a big screen. and i love your choice of dvd this week as well.

so, pain and glory, which is... got this fantastic, you know, award—nominated performance by antonio banderas in the central role, it's the new almodovar. what i love about it is this — it's a semi—autobiographical for almodovar. i think it's the most vulnerable i have ever seen antonio banderas. yes, yes. you really feel... you know, you feel his vulnerability, his pain, his growth, his, you know, nostalgia for the past. you get the sense his body is failing him and i could listen to his voice for — that sequence, anatomy and geography very, very early on, which i... gasps yes, very clever. just spellbinding. absolutely loved it. yes. absolutely loved it. and again, actually looks beautiful. i mean, it's the whole — it's the whole works, but it looks gorgeous. the thing is when have you ever seen a almodovar film that didn't look beautiful? yes, good point. even the ones that aren't great look brilliant. good point well made. chuckles mark, see you next week. thank you. and enjoy your cinema—going, whatever you choose to see. it's a cracking week. enjoy it. bye— bye. hello there. high—pressure will be with us for some time now, bringing a lot of dry weather variable clouds and good spots of sunshine, particular for and good spots of sunshine, particularfor part and good spots of sunshine, particular for part two of the weekend. he will be a very cold

start once again with lots of sunshine through the day for some the winds were really light and continue for overnight frosts for the few days. this area of high—pressure building in, pushing that low—pressure system northwards. taking the showers and the breeze with it. temperatures under clear skies, light winds have plummeted tonight with a widespread, pretty high for us, particular out of town. high—pressure dominated scene for pa rt high—pressure dominated scene for part two of the weekend. another largely try one with light winds. more isobars and weather fronts northwest of the uk. this bring more cloud to the northwest of scotland, perhaps some spots of rain for northern isles and it will be windy. temperatures nine or 10 degrees for stornoway, but elsewhere, a cold start.
