played by al pacino. and there ensues a row and then an actual fight on the floor. but what it does, of course, and what you have done with it, as it communicates so much of the character's personality. yeah, it's the kind of arrogance of the character, sort of not bothering to dress properly for a business meeting. for her deep wisdom in knowing where to draw the line in holding our country together... last year, she won a bafta for her work on the favourite, dressing the actors of the late stuart court of queen anne. all in a day's work for a designer with an impressive range. judi dench, shakespeare in love. ewan mcgregor, velvet goldmine. joe pesci, the irishman. stephen graham, the irishman. emily blunt, the young victoria. joseph fiennes, shakespeare in love. i've not said all. by malign fate, the message goes astray which would tell romeo of the friar's plan. generally, i've got their measurements in advance, so i'll go armed with various things

to try on, just as a trial. you know, prototypes, shapes, let's see what works, what doesn't work. so you start by trying a bunch of things on and then you get a feel very quickly, really, of what they are responding to, what i respond to, what works and what doesn't. it's not about making somebody look fabulous. that character has got to work and may be the character is the kind of character that looks fabulous, maybe there are character that actually looks terrible, and sometimes you have to make people look terrible deliberately. you've got quite a lot of experience at the awards, going up on stage at the baftas and the oscars. what is that whole thing like? terrifying. it's absolutely terrifying. you sit there terrified and hope your name doesn't get called. they laugh. well, hers does — frequently. and she might well hear it again at this year's awards, starting with the baftas on sunday. will gompertz, bbc news. that's it. i'll be back tomorrow night

with an extended news at 10 to mark the moment the uk leaves the eu. now on bbc one, the news where you are. hello and welcome to sportsday. i'm hugh ferris. the headlines tonight: super league's 25th season is under way. and it's win number one for wigan on a night of drama and ill—discipline at the dw. a ruthless novak djokovic powers past roger federer to reach yet another australian open final. the biggest deal of the transfer window so far — manchester united could end up paying more than £67 million for bruno fernandes. and are these trainers creating an unlevel playing field for athletes?

i'm wondering if we need to sets of records. we need to errors. before spring shoes and after spring shoes -- if spring shoes and after spring shoes —— if we need boats sets of records, we need two arrows. hello again. thank you for your company on sportsday. even before the super league season had started, we'd already had controversy, with the signing of israel falou prompting a good deal of anger, we've prepared to welcome canadians, with the first team outside europe represented,

and one of the game's big characters will also be involved, as sonny bill williams spearheads the toronto wolfpacks challenge. tonight, though, two more traditional teams got things under way, with wigan beating warrington 16—10, as patrick gearey reports. enough talking, time for the most eagerly anticipated super league season eagerly anticipated super league season in sometime. the competition turns 25 dish year and it began with the bumps courtesy of orienting's bulldozing bulldog. you see him, now you don't. or warrington certainly did not. the warriors certainly came back for more. sam powell was about to store your second try when chris hill intervened illegally. penalty try given. one look at the replay will tell you what's next. hill sent off, powell carried off. wigan had an extra man but made little reason that until warrington got in more trouble. yellow card, sin—bin. now his team only had 11 men. defendant became almost impossible. liam marshall over. though never entirely co mforta ble.

marshall over. though never entirely comfortable. warrington chasing to the final second but the warriors just outside out. patrick gearey, bbc news. novak djokovic was merciless in beating roger federer as he reached yet another grand slam final. he's a step closer to a 17th major title and defending his australian open crown after winning in straight sets against a man clearly struggling with injury. meanwhile, the women's final is something of a surprise. with more from melbourne, here'sjohn watson. we have the women's final complete. we'll come to that in a moment, but let's just reflect on another novak djokovic victory in the semifinals here to book his place in an eighth australian open final. it's a 26th grand slam final as he brushed the mighty roger federer aside in straight sets. federer clearly struggling as he received a medical timeout at the end of the first set — which he lost — and then it was comfortable in the end for djokovic as he moved through in straight sets. djokovic hoping to successfully defend his title here. and we await who he will face in that final. the victor will come from the winner of alex zverev

and dominic thiem in tomorrow's second men's semifinal. it was an upset, though, in the first of the women's semifinals. ash barty, the world number one in the women's game, beaten today in straight sets by sofia kenin of the united states. kenin was in inspired form as she came through comfortably. disappointment, as you can imagine, for ash barty, who's been carrying the hopes of a nation here at this home australian open, hopeful that they would see the first female australian enter the final here in a0 years. the barty party is over, though. kenin goes on to face garbine muguruza, another surprise success for her over simona halep, a former australian open finalist here a couple of years ago, when she was beaten by caroline wozniacki. she fell just short this time, garbine muguruza also coming through in straight sets. and as a multiple grand slam champion, she'll be hoping to add a third grand slam to her trophy cabinet if she can come past sofia kenin and saturday's final.

of course, we'll wait to see who goes on to face novak djokovic — dominic thiem and alex zverev. all eyes on that second semifinal to come tomorrow. john watson. and in that semifinal, roger federer said it was a match he only had a 3% chance of winning given the groin injury he brought into it. he'll stay on 20 grand slam titles for now, with rafa nadal on 19. those two are out, so djokovic has that chance to narrow the gap after another big win over federer. of course, he's one of my two biggest rivals to write my life. i played mostly with, most of the matches at the grand slams against rafael and roger, so these two guys have deftly made a significant difference in my mind and understand my own game and what it takes to billy winn against them. at the beginning, i remember when

billy winn against them. at the beginning, i rememberwhen i billy winn against them. at the beginning, i remember when i want first grand slam title here in 2008, after that it was the three very tough years for me because every timei tough years for me because every time i would get to a big match, finals or semis of grand slam, i would lose to one of these two guys. it took a lot of thinking and a lot of belief, and of course a lot of work, to perfect the game and challenge those guys on the big stage. meanwhile, some british success in melbourne today. joe salisbury is through to the men's doubles finals with his american partner rajeev ram, while gordon reid reached his fifth grand slam singles final in the men's wheelchair event. next to the penultimate day of the january transfer window — and its biggest deal so far to start our round up of the most recent moves. bruno fernandes has joined manchester united for an initial £46 million. that could rise to more than £67 million as the portugal international agrees a five—and—a—half—year deal, promising to "give everything to bring success and trophies" to old trafford.

danny rose has joined newcastle from spurs, also on loan until the end of the season. the defender is newcastle's third signing of the january window — and steve bruce has called it a "big coup" for his club. and sheffield united have broken their transfer record to sign norwegian midfielder sander berge from genk for £22 million. the 21—year—old played twice against liverpool in the champions league earlier this season. new wales coach wayne pivac has picked his first six nations team. they face italy in cardiff on saturday and the new coach of the reigning champions has selected george north at outside centre, with wales struggling with injuries in midfield. uncapped scarlets wing jonny mcnicoll will take north's usual place on the wing. scotland coach gregor townsend will give edinburgh number eight nick haining his international debut against ireland on saturday. there are ten changes to the starting 15 that faced japan in theirfinal match of the rugby world cup. and england will be without anthony watson for the third game of the opening weekend. it's on sunday against

france in paris. the wing has been ruled out with a calf injury. uncapped ollie thorley or george furbank are expected to replace him. next to the trainers that are causing as much fuss as they are producing fast times. world athletics are expected tomorrow to introduce tighter regulations for nike's controversial vaporfly shoe but are unlikely to ban it, despite some saying it's creating an unfair playing field. our editor dan roan has been dissecting it with scientist tom allen. one of the key things with this foam, is particularly light and then they can make it really quite thick. when it deforms, it deforms a lot. it restores a lot of energy. that's the carbon. it's fibre reinforced composite. it's stiff. it gives you stiffness along its length. that is thought to increase the leverage and

stiffen the front of the issue, stiffen the front of the issue, stiffen the front of the foot and allow the athlete to run more efficiently. how much advantage... by efficiently. how much advantage... by about 4%. these clans are based on the average runner in the study. some renters had no advantage and others may have a large advantage. it depends on the individual. it's about the athlete with the equipment. is the foam lightness, is the foam thickness. and i understand as well, and you tell me, this not all. this is not all. these new prototypes, they believe to be even thicker. and that's just we can see what the renters are currently wearing. running companies tend to run five, ten years ahead of what is released. there could be stuff in the labs at these running shoe companies that is far more advanced and going to be coming out soon or maybe in the nearfuture. two—time olympian mara yamauchi was sponsored by a different brand during her marathon running career. she's questioning the credibility of distance running right now.

if the situation continues, i'm wondering if we need to two sets of records, we need two eras, before spring shoes and after spring shoes because the world record is broken by about 80 seconds, the men's world record, 70 seconds. these are country miles and distance running. we're talking about world records where you would expect improvement to bea where you would expect improvement to be a small number of seconds, and yet they are totally obliterating records. i don't that we've actually even seen records. i don't that we've actually even seen the best performances in thoseissues even seen the best performances in those issues yet. let's tell you about some of today's other sports stories. usa gymnastics have offered those who were sexually abused by former team doctor larry nassar a $215 million settlement. that's one of two options given to survivors, who can choose instead to pursue their own individual lawsuits. nassar was sentenced to up to 300 years in prison in 2018 after more than 300 women accused him of sexual abuse.

there are concerns the coronavirus outbreak could affect this year's chinese grand prix. the fia — motorsport‘s governing body — says it'll take any action required to protect the public and those within motorsport. graeme mcdowell birdied his last three holes to sit in a share of the lead after the opening round of the saudi international. he said he was especially pleased given the windy conditions. before we go, liverpool have paid tribute to their most successful manager bob paisley today with a bronze statue outside anfield. he won six league title and three european cups during his time there. he's seen carrying former captain emlyn hughes — an iconic moment from 1968. liverpool legends like kenny dalgish and ian rush attended the unveiling. and this is what rush thought paisley would have made of it. he would get embarrassed. he would be embarrassed and say, "i don't deserve that," but that's the man he was. and he did deserve that because he's done every position in liverpool football, from reserve team manager to assistant manager to manager.

he's done everything. he was that person who knew everything about liverpool football club. that's all from sportsday. coming up next, it's the papers. but from the team here, it's goodbye for now. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the political writer and academic maya goodfellow and the deputy political editor of the daily mail, john stevens. welcome to both of you. many of those front pages are already in.

and you will detect a theme. the telegraph's cover — like many — is devoted to 11pm tomorrow night — when the uk leaves the eu. so is the sun's front page. they say the "nation's course will change forever — for the better." the guardian calls our exit the "biggest gamble in a generation." the financial times looks at the focus now on trade talks for the uk. on that them, the times claims the uk will next week call for a ca nada—style trade deal with brussels. the independent is already looking at whether we will one day re—join the eu. the prime minister is heralding a "new dawn" for britain — in the metro. and the mirror reports on the britons returning to the uk from wuhan in china. let's have a look at at least some of those over the next ten minutes 01’ so. of those over the next ten minutes or so. maia, take of those over the next ten minutes orso. maia, take us of those over the next ten minutes or so. maia, take us to the front of the telegraph. big chair of the prime minister. this is not an end up prime minister. this is not an end up at the beginning. this is really a theme, as you say,
