it successful but fit ”cc—mm m film not making it successful but this was a really good combination because the work was so good. we have seeing pictures of you picking up have seeing pictures of you picking up your oscar have seeing pictures of you picking up youroscarand it have seeing pictures of you picking up your oscar and it is not difficult to see the delight on your face. as someone who has worked in the industry a long time, and in the fashion industry before that, how do you feel about a film like this, which is challenging quite a lot of what has been accepted though unacceptable, in the treatment of women in television? as a make-up artist, i like all kinds of things andi artist, i like all kinds of things and i like that women can make themselves beautiful. i am happy that these issues are being brought up. iam that these issues are being brought y that these issues are being brought d that these issues are being brought up. iam happy and like that these issues are being brought up. i am happy and like how this film was put together so we could have a discussion and not a screaming argument. it is important for women to feel they can be beautiful and enhanced himself but what really makes you beautiful is not that and i like that we're
11:31 pm
having that conversation and that we showed it. we really got to see that kind of look and character that margot played, the heavy amounts of make up that we may think is what women think a beautiful but is not. margot is a beautiful girl without too much make—up on. it was... it was such an honour to go into this film and to work with these things and find myself in a movie that we need to see as a society. vivian baker, winner of the oscar for make—up and styling. no bombshell that you won! now i look at the weather. in the wake of storm gear over the
11:32 pm
weekend we have a few warnings across the country, but increasingly we have been concentrating on snowy weather. look at this on monday afternoon we saw a draft come through bringing a band of heavy rain. now because of the heaviness of the rain, what actually happened was temperatures dropped by five degrees in the space ofjust an hour and the rain and to snow across a swathe of northern england and the midlands. it wasn't just swathe of northern england and the midlands. it wasn'tjust over the high ground, snowing low levels even in parts of ligature as well. and the snowies remains as we look at the snowies remains as we look at the weather picture into tuesday as well, with a risk of lying snow on the ground across the hills of northern england, northern ireland and scotland. indeed in scotland was making as we could see ten centimetres over some of the higher elevations —— scotland's hills. there is a risk of transport disruption. so back and across the northern half of the uk where they will continue to follow snow. it's going to be another windy day well with coastal gusts reaching 50, 60,
11:33 pm
60 five miles an hour or something like that. most ranging around 40, maybe 50. that will blow these i was through fairly quickly. it will be another cold day across the north of the uk, temperatures coming down a little bit. that means more of those hours will be filing a snow for more of us on tuesday. tuesday into wednesday sees further showers as well blowing across northern ireland, the north of england and into scotland in particular with further significant accumulations of snow and an ongoing threat of icy conditions and disruptive snow on the roads. elsewhere pressure rises for a time across england and so when they should be a dry day. the next leather system will then begin to work into the far south—west later in the day without our bags of rain arriving to later in the afternoon. that ran through wednesday night into thursday is associated with this area of low pressure. it will put it away and with heavy is never a time across the hills of northern england and scotland. that could cause some problems. after the recent wet
11:34 pm
weather we have seen, we have seen flooding over recent days, this extra rain will be happier times, it could also cause some localised flooding issues as we head on into thursday. we could see some further disruption in places. still cold in scotland, turning out of the southern parts of england unwell with temperatures coming back up to 10 degrees. —— england and wales. and we are in the week like this, another band of heavy rain and blustery winds to blowing in. the wind is coming from the south—west so wind is coming from the south—west so it will be turning milder in scotland, nine degrees in edinburgh, but further south, 13 degrees in london. temperatures way above normalfor london. temperatures way above normal for this london. temperatures way above normalfor this time of london. temperatures way above normal for this time of year. we continue with the a mild them on saturday as well but saturday looks like a windy day. gales, severe gales blowing in across western areas. we have the slow—moving band of heavy rain, that again is more than likely to lead to some flooding issues as we head into the weekend. so stayed soon to the fore because the flooding is a concern. thejet strea m the flooding is a concern. thejet stream remains very powerful through the weekend. indeed it will be
11:35 pm
running at 250 miles an hour, pretty extreme for the atlantic jet stream, and this will be firing up areas of low pressure. through the weekend it does stay unsettled into sunday as well, often the weather is going to be pretty windy. into next week we will continue the theme of windy weather with spells of rain interspersed by showers and further snow on northern hills. it certainly is going to stay pretty unsettled. hello. this is bbc news with shaun ley. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment. first, the headlines: the bbc has learned the high—speed rail link, hs2 will be given the go—ahead by the government, linking london to birmingham, manchester and leeds, with drastically cutjourney times. a gp practice in brighton has been closed temporarily after a member of staff there tested positive for coronavirus. in all, eight people in the uk have now been infected. an islamist extremist who had been cleared of plotting a sword attack
11:36 pm
on police officers has now been convicted of planning to target london tourist hotspots. storm ciara continues to cause chaos across the uk. it's emerged a 58—year—old man was killed yesterday by a falling tree in hampshire. sinn fein says early results from ireland's general election are a "revolution in the ballot box" after it topped the poll ahead of the two parties which have dominated the country's politics since partition. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are nicola bartlett, who's a political correspondent for the daily mirror, and asa bennett, brexit commissioning editor at the telegraph. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. the i says that the prime minister is expected to give the green light
11:37 pm
tomorrow to the hs2 high—speed rail project. at the same time, the government is about to announce billions for new bus and bicycle routes. tomorrow's daily telegraph leads on the new powers for police to force those suspected of having the coronavirus into quarantine to protect the public. the sun has the news that the queen's grandson peter phillips is to separate from his wife autumn after 12 years of marriage. the financial times says chancellor sajid javid is pushing for a deal that would allow the city of london access to the eu market after the brexit transition. "sold down the river" is the headline on the front of tomorrow's daily mirror, as flooded residents clear up after storm ciara. the paper says communities in the north of england have been left without proper defences. tomorrow's metro leads on the two gps who are among four new sufferers of the coronavirus in britain. and tomorrow's guardian has a front page picture of the jubilant team behind parasite — the first—ever foreign language film to win best oscar. the times leads on the race to find patients who have been treated by those two british doctors who've tested positive for coronavirus. and we will stay nicola and asa with
11:38 pm
the times, but not that story. it is the times, but not that story. it is the story of the moment, hs2, back with a vengeance. but that isn't the headline we get from the times. you don't get hs2 on the headline at all. i think this is the headline the prime minister would want to see, about this £1 billion a year boost to regional bus services. that very much as they look at this shiny, new bus and ignore hs2, because it is so controversial. most of the public will feel like it has dragged on for so long. basically, borisjohnson has dragged on for so long. basically, boris johnson has been dragged on for so long. basically, borisjohnson has been forced to make a decision. he came into downing street on the back of the votes of a lot of people in the north and the midlands who don't traditionally vote tory with a promise to level up. he just couldn't be seen, one of the first things he has done to cancel this programme. as kind of troubled as it
11:39 pm
is, and the point is even though it is, and the point is even though it is very unpopular and lots of trueblue southern tory constituencies — a lot of mps are against it, but it doesn't really matter now because he has won the election. he knows this is controversial, since why he is trying to sugarcoat it with nice stuff about buses. basically with hsz, what many viewers will know is the reason why it is so controversial, toxic in tory circles, is the rate of money spent oi'i circles, is the rate of money spent on it. £105 billion is the latest figure. in estimates, the most expensive railway in the world in modern history, practically. and at the same time critics say all of this isjust to the same time critics say all of this is just to save 20 the same time critics say all of this isjust to save 20 minutes of the london— birmingham route, really now? support as it is much more necessary because it does so much more than that —— borders. it increases capacity and is the
11:40 pm
necessary groundwork for hs3 or the next big thing. if you don't do it now, the costs will increase all the more. so bearing down on management to show he is putting them under the government's microscope. we will leave the times now. i'm struck by the interesting photograph of brad pitt there, apparently waiting to have his oscar engraved. i thought it was all done in advance. how naive. let's look at the mail. it depends where you stand, it's either very reassuring or not with the hazmat suits was that this brighton surgery was shut because of the coronavirus. it is quite worrying. —— with the hazmat suits. i'm not sure the front page does anything to allay fears being felt but it is the
11:41 pm
key question. we don't actually know how many more people are infected. i mean, the new cases of people who have come into contact from this so—called super spreader was the rather awful term that has been given to a businessman who contracted it on a trip to singapore. there are 11 people who are reported to have got it from him. he didn't know he had the virus. he is contagious, but he's not aware of it? he travelled to a french ski chalet close to my —— montblanc and managed to infect 11 people. two of which are doctors. the races to find those people who he came into with —— b race is on. they may be already ill. it's curious. when you fly back to the uk you have to give advanced travel
11:42 pm
information. why do we have a period, 400 or so people kind of just flew back on their own device or whatever and came back into the community. nobody was able to piece that together. do you think it is a data protection issue or capacity issue? there is that sort of postmortem enquiry. i think in china theyjust shut down the robins is, totalitarian star. the uk isjust not able to do that in the same sense. it would be chaotic. the mau headline is no doubt going to spark nervousness, but we have seen anecdotally in chinatown, london, baron because people don't want to go there because they instinctively think they will get infected. i'm sure if you came in to parliament
11:43 pm
with a sniffle... there is this sort of generalairof how with a sniffle... there is this sort of general air of how do authorities reassure people? of general air of how do authorities reassure people ? that of general air of how do authorities reassure people? that is why elsewhere you see reports of matt hancock trying to show something is being done. so much so that police now have these powers to quarantine people if they think there is a sufficient and serious risk in order to show that when you see these striking sides of people in hazmat suits, reminiscent of whether there has been a russian outbreak in salisbury or something, they are taking actions. in the meantime, the fatality rate as well. generally those who have suffered the most of the ones who are the most vulnerable. having care and attention is what matters.|j vulnerable. having care and attention is what matters. i think, you know, the interesting thing in all of this is the best advice is still to just wash your hands very well. there is nothing hours. it is the basic thing. —— nothing else. but i do think these new powers,
11:44 pm
they have had 2—4 people stay in quarantine, they are definitely aimed at reassuring people the government is taking this seriously. it's interesting that people don't know what is best for them for themselves and it leads to government departments to step in. let's look at the daily mirror, nicola. this is depressingly familiar. yes. so these are families who live near the river called —— river calder. the flood defences we re river calder. the flood defences were inadequate. people have suffered this again and again and it has become such a familiar, awful thing. it's very demoralising, having your home flooded. it's not just about the physical damage, but kind of psychologically having to go
11:45 pm
through it again and again. and also there are knock—on problems are getting insurance and so on. they feel that the government has not done enough. it isa it is a difficult situation with changes in our climate making these more and more frequent. are some of these villages eventually going to be viable or are people going to abandon them if they have to keep doing this to stay in their homes. end the ft, the future of europe and the woman who angela merkel and hoped to be her successor. what has gone wrong? essentially local politics, the christian democrats we re politics, the christian democrats were going to work with an
11:46 pm
alternative party, dodgy. the national leadership, headed by if you like the mini angela merkel, was defied, ignored. essentially she has not got a grip on her party and established her authority and she conceded she will not just established her authority and she conceded she will notjust be quitting but also she will not throw her hat in to succeed the chancellor. ironically she has outlasted her successor. and she has not even left office yet. exactly. the ball is up in the air and everybody can fight over it. she might be beginning to think i will never be allowed to go. concern for everybody else, especially the eu. we have got so used to her being the one in charge and having a fairly clear idea where she stands and what she wants. she is seen as
11:47 pm
levelheaded and a big fan of europe but equally german centric. it will be interesting to see her replacement is. david cameron became appreciative. theresa may as well help quite good rapport with her. does boris have that? does he see the value of having angela merkel as an ally or as somebody who is more willing to be supportive to the uk as opposed to someone like emanuel —— emmanuel macron. as opposed to someone like emanuel -- emmanuel macron. she is hailed as the queen of europe but at the same time, she has her own agenda and priorities. it is not the case of that, when david cameron is to take pride in being is naughty nephew, we
11:48 pm
must remember that angela merkel did not give him the deal he wanted that could have kept uk in the european union. she and her successor will fight for their interests and speaking earlier about the corunna violence, the german health minister is very methodical, he has been with matt hancock showing these dynamic and positioning himself in a smooth handling of that maybe you can go on to great things. the latest royal split... you have to feel a bit sorry for the queen after all this. despite the ups and downs of 70
11:49 pm
yea rs. despite the ups and downs of 70 years. she is having to deal with crisis after crisis. i think we're talking about quite a minor move. peter philip, who i think most people might know from recently being exposed... controversially... treating that family name to sell milk with that. amendment has got divorce, essentially. —— a milkman. that would have been a good headline. laughter. apparently peter philip's soon to be ex—wife may be going to canada. only she comes from canada so it is less surprising she is going back to canada. it is not ourdumping ground. the
11:50 pm
is going back to canada. it is not our dumping ground. the headline is a subconscious move... do you mean... some cynicism. a radical suggestion. we did not talk very much about this but this is the bbc launching its search for a new director—general at a very difficult time for the corporation. it is not quite the lamb job time for the corporation. it is not quite the lambjob it time for the corporation. it is not quite the lamb job it once was. —— glamorousjob. they quite the lamb job it once was. —— glamorous job. they may end quite the lamb job it once was. —— glamorousjob. they may end up fighting for the bbc‘s survival. glamorousjob. they may end up fighting for the bbc's survival. the headhunters sweetly brought in for this. while they will not reveal a salary, they want someone with demonstrable resilience! i imagine
11:51 pm
you are rolling yourself out?|j demonstrable resilience! i imagine you are rolling yourself out? i am. iam. you are rolling yourself out? i am. i am. dangerous to have people on the screen running the place as well. it is a difficult time for bbc. not only are there these ongoing issues about how it is releva nt ongoing issues about how it is relevant and compete for funding but the government has set itself up for a fight already. the big threat is netflix. it did not do very well at the oscars. people who did would be the oscars. people who did would be the sort of film you would see on bbc four, foreign language, south korean film. social satire has got every board in town. upstairs downstairs but in korean. but not
11:52 pm
pj. downstairs but in korean. but not pj. there is a mrs bridges character. they slipped themselves into a sinister way into a rich family. you have the androgynous boy bands, gangnam style and now this. thank you both very much. really good to be with us. that's it for the papers tonight. don't forget, you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it's all there for you seven days a week at bbc.co.uk/papers. and if you miss the programme any evening, you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. a big thank you to my guests this evening, nicola and asa. that's it from us tonight and goodbye.

11:55 pm
as the game was meant to be played in glasgow, but due to storm keira it was moved to murrayfield in edinburgh today. however, it had to be played behind closed doors because there wasn't enough time to sort out the stewards. england won convincingly, putting them joint top of the table with ireland. let's stay with the scottish rugby, and the men's team, because the row between head coach, gregor townsend, and star fly—half finn russell rumbles on. russell hasn't played any part in scotland's six nations campaign after "breaching team protocol" during a drinking session at the team hotel. he gave an interview over the weekend, and admitted that he has no relationship with the head coach saying that everything has to change for him to come back. he isa he is a terrific player, he has been great to coach over a number of yea rs. great to coach over a number of years. he will be available to play for us and anyone who wants to play will have to align themselves to the tea m will have to align themselves to the team standards. behaviours and
11:56 pm
standards driven by the players and any player that comes into that has to have the trust of the group and they are totally committed to what they are totally committed to what the team expects and acquires of all the team expects and acquires of all the team expects and acquires of all the team members. meanwhile, another blow for scotland as lock jonny gray is out of the rest of the six nations after injuing his hand. he had started both of scotland's games in this year's championship. the fa has written to dele alli to ask for his observations, after the tottenham and england midfielder apologised for making a joke about the coronavirus. in a video posted on social media, the 23—year—old joked about the outbreak and appeared to mock an asian man. he's since deleted the snapchat post, and says he's let himself and the club down. lots more on the bbc sport website and app, including analysis of how rory mcilroy has made it back to world number one, without even playing a tournament. that's all from me, bye for now. sunday was all about the windy
